From director Frank Oz (The Muppets Take Manhattan, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels), Little Shop of Horrors (1986) is a cult classic horror / comedy / musical blending dark humor, catchy songs, and unforgettable practical effects. Based on the off-Broadway stage musical (itself adapted from Roger Corman’s 1960 film), the movie follows the nerdy florist Seymour Krelborn (Rick Moranis – Ghostbusters, Honey I Shrunk the Kids) who discovers a mysterious man-eating plant he names Audrey II. As the plant grows, so does Seymour’s fame and fortune — but Audrey II’s insatiable hunger for human flesh spirals into chaos. Ellen Greene (Pushing Daisies, Leon: The Professional) shines as Audrey, Seymour’s love interest, while Steve Martin (The Jerk, Planes, Trains & Automobiles) delivers an iconic performance as sadistic dentist Orin Scrivello. The film also features memorable appearances from Vincent Gardenia (Moonstruck, Bang the Drum Slowly) as Mr. Mushnik, James Belushi (Saturday Night Live, Red Heat), and Bill Murray (Groundhog Day, Ghostbusters) in one of the film’s most famous comedic cameos. Highlights include the show-stopping musical numbers “Suddenly, Seymour” and “Dentist!,” Audrey II’s jaw-dropping puppetry, and the alternate “Director’s Cut” ending where the monstrous plant takes over the world. Andrew Gordon, Aaron Alexander & John Humphrey react, review, and break down both the Director’s Cut and the original theatrical ending of Little Shop of Horrors, discussing the legacy of this bizarre, hilarious, and beloved musical.

Who knows, but we have a genre-based schedule here at the channel. Check those days out. Find which genre is the perfect one for you.

I am very excited. I haven't seen this since I was like a young, young child, and even then I was probably only in the room for part of it. So I am very excited to put this into my brain with fresh eyes. It's time for little shop of horrors. The director's cut. We're going straight to the source. From what I understand, this is a little closer to the original play story,

as well as including a few additional songs and what. not the complete Frank Oz vision. Hey. Andrew, how you doing today, my friend? You are still a little child in spirit and a beautiful man too as well. I'm doing okay. I feel like a little man in a shop and my life is like a horror show. So, but I'm doing okay.

Thank you. I got the best support group around me, taking care of me and checking in on me daily. I got Reject Nation also just filling me with words of affirmation and positivity on a constant daily basis, which I love you guys for as well as love you guys. So appreciate it. And, yeah, I remember growing up hearing about this movie constantly. And I know two actors who are in this movie because My Blue Heaven is one of my old-time favorite comedies ever.

I'm like, oh my God, the two stars of My Blue Heaven. That's like my favorite, one of my favorite comedies ever. But I've never seen this one. So, yeah, now I'm excited to fulfill the prophecy, I guess. It's like poetry, it rhymes, you know. But I'm doing, otherwise I'm doing great. Excellent. I'm glad to hear that, brother.

and Aaron, how are you today? I'm doing well. I'm doing so well. We had another reaction. Before this, me, Terran, Andrew. Hey. This, I don't know which comes out, which, but I got a horror shirt for all three occasions. But, yeah, I'm excited because I don't think I've ever seen this movie, but I just know one line, because it was referenced a lot when I was a kid.

And, yeah, a little fun fact, I wasn't even supposed to be on this reaction. I saw it, and I was like, yo, let me get in on that. I told you about it. You did. And then I messaged the people. behind the scenes i was like yo i want to shoot more i want to be on that that beautiful reaction with my boys over here can i join them they're like yeah get in there and i was like thank you thank you schedule gods uh so yeah now i'm here and i'm excited to get a little musical johnny boy

I keep waiting for someone to screen it. And he also did. Steve Martin. And he also did, what about Bob? One of my all-time favorites. There you go. Teesie Campbell's in this? What?

Look out now. On the 23rd day of the month of September. Oh, we're so close. Oh, that's pretty soon. I know. In an early year of a decade, not too long before our own, the human race suddenly encountered a deadly threat to its very very, existence oh snap oh oh and this terrifying enemy surface as such enemies often do in the seemingly

most innocent and unlikely of places oh in a little shop oh cool transition Oh damn Ashman and he did Little Mermaid and he directed it right Howard Ashman are my wrong on that oh it's the other chick from Martin what oh wow Pam and Gina that's crazy Audrey 2 designed in McGrady by Lyle Conway Oh Oh Oh, that's cool Beware

I see why you thought that. actor. Till the weekend and at his press conference today. Is that John Candy? Yeah. And they were both in space balls, him and Rick Moranus. Dude, this eclipse, it's gonna have big ramifications. I can feel it.

They're both in space balls being directed by Yoda right now. Oh, who beat on her? Hey. No. That base. She finally decides to come to work. Good morning, Mr. Mushnik. Oh.

Her voice. Oh, this guy, I've seen him a bunch of stuff. I can't think of what I've seen him in either. What the hell happened? Oh, no, who did that to you? Oh. No. Gracie?

I know it's gone on my business, but I'm beginning to think he's maybe not such a nice boy. I would agree with that. Oh, no. He's so clumsy. Oh, they're cute. Oh, adorable. I already love them. I'll help them clean it up before any of the customers get you.

That should give you plenty of time. Oh, boy. God, what an existence I got. Misfit employees, bombs on the sidewalk, business is lousy. My life is a living hell. It's okay. Oh, the singing girls. Oh, yeah, yeah.

Hey Oh, hands off. I don't want to give this girl a hug. I want her to be with Seymour so bad already. It's 10 seconds later. I'm scared, Ro. That sweater. Hey.

All my life, I've always been poor. Keep asking God what I'm for. Oh, my. Sweep that floor, kid. That's your purpose. Wow, great voice, Rick Moranus. Here on Skin Ro, he took me and gave me shelter a bed, crust of bread and a job. Hmm.

Forget it, don't about to come in tomorrow No Oh no We need to come in Caput. Caput. Made money. I'm closing this garden customer for sacrifice.

Has it ever occurred to you that maybe what the firm needs is to move in a new direction? The firm. Seymour, why don't you run downstairs and bring up that strange and interesting new plant you've been working on? I like this movement she has with the cadence of her voice. Some of those ecstatic plants, Sima has been... She's very, she's very soft spoken too. It's comforting and welcoming. Maybe some of those strange and interesting new plants.

new plants prominently displayed and advertised with a track business. That's a grand idea. Had a marketing around. I'm afraid it isn't feeling very well today. Oh, is that the plant he's holding from that POV? Yeah. That's cool. What kind of a weird little practice that, Siebel?

I think it's some kind of fly trap. That's the only thing I knew about this movie was the plants. I gave it my own name though. And the two stars. I call it an Audrey, too. Eh. If you were to put a strange and interesting plant like this here in the window, then maybe, maybe.

Do you have any idea how ridiculous you sound? You put a strange and interesting plastic in the window people don't suddenly Hey, I'll take it. Couldn't help noticing

that strange Yeah Christopher guessed Oh that is Christopher, you're right I've never seen anything like it before Does he have six fingers

That plant in the window, it's simply amazing. Wowy. I wonder if this inspired businesses to start putting plants in windows after this. Definitely, and no one had ever thought about it before. I don't know everybody's intrigued by the plant, but no one tries to buy the plant. You know, you gotta sell some sizzle and then people come in for the steak. Wow. Whoaie.

Thank you very much, sir. Thank you. Yeah, Flores on Skid Row. That's tricky. Let's end on a high. We're closing this shop forever. Is he the dad in Moonstruck? I don't know like crazy.

Taxi bouncing off the fire escape. Dude, this is insane. Just the sheer amount of pandemonium and destruction. I would love to go back and look at the other ending, the theatrical ending. Whoa! Oh my god, that is a... Is this kind of like akin somewhat to Mars attacks, like that 50s style B film? Definitely has some of that vibe.

Escape from New York. Hey, let's go. Snake pluskin can save them. I am tired of these fucking plants in this fucking city. Yeah! Wow. Damn you all to hell. The end?

You damn dirty plants. plants. Oh, hey. They're coming into the theater. Don't allow greed to consume you. That was insane. That was truly bonks. Levi Stubbs. Is that oogie-pooky? I don't know. Uh, you know what? Let me check. Check right now, John. We're waiting. Rick Moranis, love to see it. Love to see him. I really miss him so much. I know he's coming back for a movie, but I really have missed him so much in film. Vincent Gardena, John. Okay.

I don't know who that is. Okay, Ken Page was oogie-buggy, so I was wrong. It sounded like if I was with you on that. Dude, the three of them killed it. Yeah, they were great. Everyone was great. Bill Murray, John Candy, some fun cameos. Yeah, that was funny.

Paul Dooley. He was a doozy in this Christopher Gress. That was awesome. God, he was rare for him. he was a great guest truly and bill murray oh my god what strangest cameo i've seen a while i've never seen someone have an orgasm at getting a root caddell based on the musical play the little shop of horrors based on the film by roger corman screenplay by charles griffith originally produced off broadway oh wow damn all right all righty gang we're gonna hop into

this review we may lose an andrew in a couple of minutes you're gonna lose an engine it's okay i'm so sorry no it's all good gang if you happen to be listening to this on apple or spotify go ahead and leave us a rating also leave a like on the video leave a so the go subscribe hit that notification bell so you can be notified when another musical or any other movie comes your way also big thanks to the team over at purrper for musicals are easy these highlights down jumping on these highlights did we hear that was this the song he sang in the movie or is this another another song either Either way, I think he sings this in the movie.

And John forgot to say, leave some blood too. Leave some blood out for Audrey, too. Gang, before we hop into our little patron Q&A, let's just get a couple quick thoughts off the dome. Andrew, since you're pressed for time. I love, I'm feeling, the ending was really sad, but also it's a fascinating theme and message just about again. I was kind of alluding to it a lot, actually,

and speaking at nauseam at the end there. Just about consumerism and greed, allowing it to consume us all, you know, and what it does to us as a society. I thought that was a fascinating theme to drop upon there, especially in the end. And I just, I thought Rick Moranis, I really appreciated just, you know, how much of a clutz and clumsy he was in the beginning and just how much of a pushover as well. And I resonated with that because I've gone through such periods of my life where I am like that. and I let people just walk over me and talk down to me. So I'm like, but he's such a sweetheart of a guy. He's really like, he really cares about Audrey.

And like, he just really tries to make sure she's comfortable. And he knows she's going through a very difficult situation and vice versa with her too. And she really has a very low image of herself and talks down to herself too in a way. So and she is so drawn to this toxic relationship, but also she wants so much more with Seymour. And I was just so like drawn to this relationship, but also. the music like I was like I was locked into the music too I think my favorite types of musicals are when like they're easy to understand but also they push the plot forward and progress the characters and add a arcs for them as well so I thought the music was so memorable so wonderful

and just let us gave us a picture into the mind of what these characters are thinking and the motivation and the why of what they are going through and what they hope to achieve and I think this film did a great job of doing that and executing on that and this is a film i will definitely go back to and i'm sure i'm going to pick up on more things so oh yeah i really adored this film and it had everything i love from practical effects to stop motion to rear projections and had a lot of actors i love too and also my blue heaven as i mentioned is one of my favorite films bill murray's one of my favorite actors so it's like very cause is one of my best favorite directors i was going to say best friends i wish um but favorite director in a way

what's up frank good to see you guys you know but it's a very social kind of way yeah this movie had a lot of things that i appreciate especially with 80s films so i thought it was a great freaking movie i really adored it a great deal um but yeah heck yeah i'll run how you feeling my friend don't i am feeling i'm feeling things i i really liked it no i really really enjoyed it all the music was really well done i liked the setting of the musical the characters are really endearing and yeah you just wanted good for these people and i just thought it was funny the parallel between the lengths in which he'd go for obri two and the lengths in which he's go for obri one and you know because he was someone who wanted wanted good but was also

accustomed to kind of be and uh talk down to his whole life he had a little felt like like he had to obey the plan because he didn't know how to like be his own man and that's ultimately what was his downfall in the end like his desire for for love and acceptance versus his self-esteem and desire to please and it ultimately cost him his life and then the world in the end oh no which is really unfortunate and i'm very curious now because knowing that this is the director's cut of the movie i'm just dying to know what the theatrical that's theatrical kind of this is I'm like does it end this bleak do we see the world literally destroyed at the end because that's kind of wild I think we should we should go watch let's just do you release the Oz cut oh wait I think we should look at the at the theatrical cut ending just to see I would say I would love to I unfortunately have to depart these ways and not in the way that Leonardo DiCaprio Matt Damon and Martin sheen did but I didn't just the regular way I

have to depart so i apologize i see what you did there i was just talking about a movie worked in a reference i believe that's what i do in my life then i try i reference then i can't place what it could have i don't know i don't i've no idea what i'm so sorry i love you guys so much it i'm so sorry all right gang everyone has peed successfully and you know what we decided we didn't want to do this if we didn't have the full crew on hand to review it so we swapped real quick into an alternate dimension where Andrew could still be here the alternate ending the original director's cut of this video and somehow in the process of hopping through space and time our clothes change but you know Andrew's our anchor beings so that's how that happens but anyhow

excited to jump into this man this is this is you know it's it's been a long trip through space and time to get here but this movie has filled me with a unique kind of joy that only like a kooky tangible thing from an age where you could you know take a swing like this you know and that was a thing that might happen more frequently so yeah i'm buzzing a little bit but uh yeah i'll hop into our questions let's do it and i'm sure that'll guide our general thoughts and things uh william Daniels mr. Feeney the original ending of the musical and movie was the Audrey two oh oh this is going to be a little bit familiar this is why partly we're going to hop in right away and then jump you know back around because Audrey two at Eden seymour and taken over

the world was changed because the test screening audiences wanted a happy ending if it was made today do you think that's a chance studios and directors would have made you can find the OG ending on YouTube well it so happens if you've made it to this point the video that you know that we just watched the OG ending on this timeline as well we found a few where we had watched the other version uh and actually here jay rushed in what up jay know the original ending of little shop was plant invading the town implying nuclear bombing was used to end uh you know the the attack and all that stuff and yes the original ending is uh on youtube you know what with all this talk of the original ending and whatnot and like you know do you think uh

studios or directors would have made this or that choice today. I thought it might be fun if we take a look at what the, you know, the test screening notes ending was, the theatrical ending was. And then we can kind of see which seems more likely to suit the now. What a beautiful segue. Let's do it, John. We're not going to go back through the actual credits and stuff. So this would be, you know, a little 10-minute chunk or so.

But let's take a look and see how this hits us here. And see if uh, uh, uh, a tour's or audiences know better. Mm-hmm. All right.

Are you okay? Yes. No. Audrey. Audrey. Oh, no. I'm okay. I'm sorry, Audrey.

I'm just so sorry. I never meant to hurt you. I never meant to hurt anybody. It's just that somehow it makes things happen. Terrible. I don't remember her getting up on this. See like that. Yeah.

They just burst out the door after he pulled her out his mouth. We started doing business. and making money and you like me and do you really think I liked you because of that she liked you for the person you were liked you from the day I came to work here even if I wasn't famous still love you Seymour oh so sweet all I ever wanted is you oh Audrey you're the most wonderful person that ever lived somewhere green You'll see.

Fun, fun. A fun little twist. Love some 80s electricity effects. How do you know to grab it? You can see. All right. Oh my god. That's all right.

Love this. Just a tad. Different. Good job, Seymour. You save the world. Let's get that hero shot in the smoke. the rubble yeah i mean on the heels i mean on the heels of what i mean on the heels of what are you talking about you and i just saw or what you and i just saw or what we all we all watched the

directors cut on this timeline yes oh that timeline okay yes on either time sorry I got to figure out which timeline I'm still on look right into that camera oh and then and then this became up yeah he does oh my god oh and it's yeah it's like rendered like our postcard fantasy house hey hey have the best wardrobs in the film the tisha campbell not come back for this i i didn't even see they didn't even show tisha campbell did they not i guess maybe not honestly scheduling oh no no that's so weird the whole thing was with the trilogy the three of them and they didn't even show her yeah that is bonks oh that's right yeah and uh and uh what was his name levi stubbs

from the four tops yeah classic motown band oh it's a fascinating different endings all right so i guess that's kind of the question here is a little bit just like yeah that was the theatrical right how do yes that's the theatrical ending so how do you feel about each ending and yeah which do you think uh would be the move today i think the more ambitious one is definitely the director's cut because i think it ties into one of the themes of the film which is consumerism and greed and i think audrey too is the metaphor for that, this unchecked appetite, you know, that we, that we have for that. So, and also, too, you know, with identity and success and, like, do we lose ourselves sometimes in, in that success that we are glorified? Yeah.

So, again, I love a good happy ending. I really, really do. And I truly would have loved for Seymour and Audrey to have a happy ending. I think that is sweet and endearing. I think what the messages and the themes of this film are trying to get across that I think the other, again, the director's cut is more of an ambitious one and also kind of just renders onto what happens in the real world. So I think that one just hits home a little more,

but I still think the other one is still very sweet and during because we are so emotionally invested in the characters. I think either one works, but if you ask me which one from a story perspective is a stronger ending, I think it's the director's cut personally. run it's tough because i want seymour and uh i agree with her and aubrey to win yeah i agree but i feel like the original no no no you don't want audrey to win andrew's gonna eat the world yes oh audrey one to win audrey two is going to eat the yeah oh my that's of course he's audrey what about jenny twelve caught me in a trap of

my own trap that i laid for you but it's tough because i'm wondering in an alternate an alternate timeline that we have not experienced. If we watched the theatrical version first and then saw the alternate version, would we feel the same way that we feel now? Yeah. Because that's, for us, that is the true experience and this is

the alt experience. See, in a way, I like this ending more because I, not more than the other one, but I like it more than I might have because I saw the last one, just because now knowing what the story actually is and thinking about those

themes based on that uh it's just kind of like a nice fun little uh yeah just like a nice little uh d lc where i get to be like oh see there's another timeline where they lived happily ever after and in our multiverse happy age uh i do kind of think that that's a neat thing and and you know what they did here certainly had some spirit and certainly you know worked with what they needed to you know include which was obviously like the music that transitions us out of the show and that final set piece from a huge vocal talent that you got like so yeah i think this could have gone way worse as like a reshot ending and it is uh you know i i can imagine the version of this that has a feel good ending appropriately so uh and i think both versions are kind of interesting in

their own way it's just yeah one's a little more dark and twisted than the other it's more i think the director's kind of more ambitious for sure i also feel like it goes on a a little long with like all the destruction they were like really revelishing in it on on how much destruction yeah yeah so i i think for the the fact that we get to root for these characters and the fact that they were able to wrap it up in a way that feels yeah like i don't know like cozy i think i might like than this version better but ever so slightly but i do agree that the themes are more uh palpable or are rung home uh to a greater degree in the theatrical.

Yeah, I can understand. I totally agree. And I can understand why they would go with the theatrical version, especially after the test audiences and all that. And again, I would love a happy ending. And also, too, I do like the whole theme of, it's never too late to have a redemption for yourself. Even if you are consumed with this greed and you lose yourself,

you can always come back from that. There's always enough time to reshape your image. So I do appreciate and think that, that still does fit in with the theme of what we were speaking about earlier so you know and i do like what you said as well with we can have this all you know you have these two versions it's you can go with this version or you can go with that one and i think they're both great honestly yeah like i think they both have their charms and i think definitely the happier ending is the more likely version to i think you know times haven't the more things change the more i stay the

same in some ways and yeah this is the ending i imagine would get studio noted into existence now Definitely. But as it stands, it was very lovely to behold. And actually, we'll touch on some of these ideas further down the line. Resonance ZZ. Thank you for chiming in once again. Technically, the first musical I've ever seen. I remember being scarred as a kid, scared as a kid when it was on.

Either or, obviously watching it now, I find a very fun. I have to do obvious question, which songs were. some of your favorites hope you guys enjoyed the movie and remember the two feed i mean water your plants at home yeah i got to we got to remember that aaron plant life yep and uh you know what i think my favorite song because look little mermaid is one of my favorite films growing up so the one where audrey you know she had this image of just in general she had such a low standing on her her image and she didn't view herself in such a high regard which is why she was dating Steve Martin.

By the way, Steve Martin, what a freaking electric performance. He's so sadistic in this film, the way he was able to chew the scenery. And again, he's a character, I think we can all agree. We hate, but we love to hate him, and we love to watch him in this film.

He is so damn entertaining. And, but again, the way she views herself in this film, and I loved her voice in this movie, too, was kind of the heartbeat of the film to me. And the song that she, I forgot the name of the song, but where she was just speaking about how she wanted to have this nice, mundane life.

Somewhere that's green. I pulled up the song because this is our first. I think it's called Somewhere That's Green. So, yeah, that song. And I think it was really a precursor, at least in my mind just with the way, you know how guys I like to reference things, but I know this film came out in 1986

and Little Mermaid came out in 1989. It really did feel like it was just a, again, a precursor for part of your world in Little Mermaid. and you know how she was like really wanted to be part again just wanted to come up to the surface and and and and have find love with eric so kind of feel like you know and same thing with her and like get out from this abusive and emotionally torturing relationship that she found herself in with steve martin's character and wanted to be with seymour so you know i kind of found some some parallels there uh personally and i thought that one like really hit home for me i felt for her because i i was really in love with the character and i wanted her to be with seymour so bad badly so i would say that one yeah uh yeah i'm tossed between uh skid row or in parentheses downtown or dad do yeah and i think i'm tossed between those because i feel like skid row kind of gave you the feeling of where everybody was at the beginning of this musical was like the

downtrodden and then seymour's a part of that and he kind of is he's living in the basement and then he kind of rises to notoriety because of obri two and dad do because one of was a fun song And also there's this thing on Instagram and TikTok where people use the do do and they're like suddenly and without warning and like reveal a piece of information so kind of a mind blow to realize oh, it's from this movie. I see. But yeah, if it wasn't for the the TikTok trend thing with some of the try guys, I would say Skid Rose was definitely my favorite. What about you, man? You know, I mean, Skid Row is one of the one that came first to mine, just because I really like the way that that established the scene, and I love a good ensemble tune, and I think it just, yeah, really nicely kind of set the tone for the story, because, like, it has the whimsy and the fun of a musical and, you know, a slight bit of sci-fi, but also it does have this kind of striking portrait of, you know, characters in more realistic situations than you might expect out of me. a show like this it's kind of got a neat blend of again whimsical uh quirky you know uh theatrical nests but it also yeah just has this uh you know yeah as you said sort of downtrodden and scuffed up but still heartfelt quality uh so that came to mind definitely i mean i just loved listening to levi stubbs sing across all along two songs uh he's good uh and uh i mean the the the dentist bit is just

oh so good like i love the blend of sounds in this movie because yeah it's it's like motown and it's you know old school rock and roll and certainly like musical you know jazz type stuff too and i love all those traditions and somewhere great like you know that's another one too where it's just she's so endearing and and she's exaggerated but she's just so lovely and that song she imbued with such it's like i could name any of the songs and i think that's cool because one of the tricks of any musical is like you want to have an embarrassment of riches of songs to point to and different kinds of songs that sort of different purposes and so i think it's a really strong soundtrack over yeah no the and i loved having the uh the like greek chorus in between everything the three of them you know

kind of narrating and it has like that rock opera thing where it's like sometimes people are singing the you know exposition to you or a narration or some kind of a side or commentary on totally totally yeah i thought the musical elements for great all yeah agreed and i think the i think the song's did a great job of painting a picture of what these characters are thinking that's going on through their head while also progressing and moving the story forward and also, you know, uh, it's operatic in that sense. Yeah, for sure. And also like Skid Row downtown, I think that song too, like really painted a picture of like the grind we all have to go through in life and kind of just like

uplifted the fact that Rick Moran, especially Rick Moran's character and also just us in general, like we want more than this grind that we have to go through every day. really annoying and it's tedious and like and we we have ambitions and goals to have more in life so that was a really you know very effective song for sure to set the tone

for the rest of the film yeah absolutely here let's and we can discuss the themes in this next one Bailey Anderson this movie touches thank you Bailey by the Waley touches on some really critical human struggles and approaches them in a cheeky offbeat and humorous way

from Audrey's abuse by the dentist to Seymour giving up his own blood the Faustian bargain for success love and acceptance how did those themes resonate with you and do you think the tone obscured the themes or highlighted them i think the tone definitely uh allows it's it's kind of like that sugar for the medicine in a sense and i think it's you know the loveliness of you know uh fringier and more underground arts not that this doesn't have like you know mainstream studio help or you know mainstream money behind it, to some degree at the time. But yeah, like I thought

the whimsy kind of allows you an in-road to actually kind of in a fun way acknowledging some of the struggles of life, and then in the original ending, you know, kind of realizing, yeah, the cost of a Faustian bargain like that, or you know, kind of entering into

a symbiotic partnership with a thing you don't understand and all the points of no return on the way to total destruction. And, yeah, And just the interesting portrait of a bunch of different people who are all sort of living these sorted that are absurd, but the movie knew when to employ a sense of danger. And I think that's part of the soup there. So I think, yeah, like I want to watch this again because it's so rich with things and there's music and there's so much happening that, you know, like you kind of, it begs you to go back and kind of look at it on different levels each time.

But, yeah, I found it very resonant while also being breezy and fun and hadn't hitting like a musical, but, you know, leaving an aftertaste like, oh, snap, though. Like, this is actually kind of heavy, in a sense, doc. Yeah. Yeah. No, I understood that reference. And I do agree. And also just, like I pointed out earlier, I just didn't know this question was going to come up or I wouldn't have mentioned it.

But, yeah, just could pay attention to the question. I should have looked at the questions before responding to the first one. But, yeah, no, just consumerism and greed and just what that does to us and our, our, our, our ideas. identity in general and are losing ourselves but that's why again I did not mind that theatrical ending because there's always that that option to redeem yourself and you know self-check yourself and to see like you know what have you become and what you can still become. Can I actually stop this before it's too late? Yeah exactly and I think there's always time like you know if you're if you haven't actually like you know taken someone's life or done something of that effect you know there's

always time to rebuild yourself and to come back to the person you once were, possibly if you were a good person in general. And like Seymour, he was, I think there was an interesting line in there, in the theatrical cut in the ending. He's like, what, you'd still love me if I didn't have

all this money? Because it seems like even though he had this goal of being rich and all that, a lot of it had to do with he wanted to impress Audrey, of course, so he could take care of her and provide for her, have a good life for her, but also to he felt invisible not seen even though Audrey obviously thought of him as a very nice guy

he's also kind of a pushover too and he thought that by having all this and being able to provide for her you know he wouldn't be as invisible to her but it's like she already thought he was such a wonderful and incredible guy and money was not going to change that so I'm glad that again before it was too late he was able to see these things yep agree parents like you guys said it all I guess last thing I would say too is I like that it doesn't like it makes the thing that Seymour's journey is very relatable and it's not like oh he's clearly making the wrong choice it's very sort of like oh you could it drives home the point that any of us could wind up in that position of course and with the right contributing factors for sure he's looked down upon the whole film so like I would understand his need to want to uplift himself in and be in a position of of being caught up and greed and all that. So I get it, for sure. Heck yeah.

Alex, a while back, there was rumored to be a remake of Little Shop of Horror starring Tarron Edgerton. Oh, Starlett Johansson and Chris Evans. Damn. Plan seemed to have fallen apart since then. Is that something you would want to be remade? Is this something you'd want to be remade? That is a toughie. Look, I'm going to answer the same way I always do with remakes.

If you're going to remake it, you can capture the moments that make it special, but you've also got to make it original. I just don't want shot for shot beats where I'm like I've already seen this movie I don't need this again but also at the same point I don't want it's like what was the point of making this this movie is you know there needs to be a justification for why this film exists

I'm open I'm a very open minded person in general whatever the you know the thing is so I'd be open to it again if you were capturing the things that made this film special which I think are the musical moments the heart when it comes to the romance so like those things you can definitely keep in there I think but then you got to try and make it fresh as well yeah I agree I think that with today's technology there's definitely ways you could improve it or not even improve but add a different stylistic

flare to Aubrey 2 and then just the what downtown is in general the advancements we've made with you know how we do musicals but also just film as a whole uh i feel like opportunity for sure be cgi in this new version yeah and that is a sad that is a sad thing because like oh you do some of the charm of the practical effects here but on the other hand you could also do a lot more creative visual things that you couldn't do at least at the time of this movie being made so i don't know i'm kind of tossed something i'm not tossed about is i feel like taren edgerton and scarlet johansen are too handsome and too attractive to be Aubrey and

Seymour. Yeah, I agree. But I feel like if, but that's it, I feel like Chris Evans could be Steve. He could be the dentist for sure. He could be a great dentist but yeah, I want somebody less traditionally attractive to play both of those roles. Yeah, I mean

and two, you know, if you're gonna, I don't know who I would cast honestly, but I would agree with that. And I think that there's something about this. It's in an interesting crossroads because it's in conversation with theater and theater obviously like you know once the play is made it's redone and redone and redone and redone and it's done in different places and ways and so like i'm excited for this i feel like it's always kind of fair in a different sense to do another version of a

musical uh so i don't exempt this from that but i do agree of that like i would want it to include an element of real movie magic for the year and now that doesn't just mean oh we're doing a cg i version so yeah so I'd be apprehensive but it's I would roll my eyes less than a bunch of other stuff for those reasons but who are you thinking so who I'm thinking for uh for Seymour and Aubrey jack Anton who I think if this was made now I feel like they would cast Timothy Shalameh as you know they would yeah and I feel like for uh and Zendaya would be Audrey no for sure no I was thinking actually homegirl from the bear

and what's your name? Oh, oh, oh. A.O. A Debris. Yeah. Edibri. She probably might be cast as her.

I think that would be interesting choice. Yeah. Yes, chef. I could see Seth Rogan and Catherine Hegel. Definitely. Yep. 100%. I really do.

I wouldn't know who to cast to be honest on that one. Well, who would you guys cast? Leave it in the comments below. I don't know. Could freaking, you know, a little Furiosa do it? Big eyes. Big eyes.

You know. Oh, you're talking about Anna Taylor Joy? I can see her, is it? I don't know. Leave yours down below. I'm excited to hear what you guys. Rachel Zegler's got a great voice. She does?

I don't. I know she's not the most popular person. She's also too conventionally interactive to play Aubrey. But, yeah, she has a great voice. So anyway. And then we'll get Drake to sing for the plant. Yes. Speaking of that question.

yes actually great segue Michelle R thank you for chiming in if you were to cast a voice for Audrey to today which musical artist would you choose Eminem

yes it's a Eminem Linwell Miranda do a wrap do a wrap off with Seymourhead I don't know I uh

it's not it occurred to me watching this I was like I don't know if this would sit well with everybody for various reasons but like

the first person that came to my mind was like oh they would put Celo in this if it was you know slightly before like that would you know well though I see it that would be good like he would have the pipes yeah then just charisma that requires like 100% yeah and I did look it up by the way it was the guy who poised oogie boogie yeah it sounded but I I four tops though I mean yeah like classic Motown band yeah no I think whoever if they did get a musical artist whoever got you really have to capture that that that that sass that

uh whoever the the voice artist was in this who he really captured that vindictiveness and that sass that uh i would want uh if they'd remade this film so i think you would have to do that but i really would not have a clue who you would cast but i like your choice though now i'm mad because i can't think of a single person better than see you let's play this no no john perfect john solved it you know now it would be like jelly roll or something. Oh, maybe. Kendrick is Aubrey 2.

There you go. Oh, that's so diabolical. Will Smith. There you go. Had the, did the genie now he can do an odd I think that would work. I think that it'll work.

Leave us your voice castings for Odd 2 down below. And Michelle R once again, second question. You got there at the end. Good for you. In terms of alien invasion movies by plant, would you rather turn into a pod person from invasion of the body snatchers or be eaten by andre too i've never seen the first one

either so uh i guess i'll pick choice too because i don't know choice one being body snatched seems like it would kind of suck i can't remember exactly what the rules are like once you've been body snatched if they can get you back or not i kind of like i if you can be unsnatched i might take that but if you're just like oh great now i'm shelved away for eternity and this aliens is going to use my body then just eat me then I think I know what the rules are when you get body snatched you sink down into a metaphor and then if a flash of light like

from a phone comes then you snap out of it momentarily I think that's what happens is this a did I understand this reference you might have okay I know Aaron did I feel like it again I can say the thing again I said if you get if you get snatched body snatch rather from an alien

that you sink down into like a metaphor or into a it's like a metaphor what's that yeah it's pure that and then if a flash a flash of light from a phone comes you you kind of get out of it

for momentarily get out of it I understood on the first sentence I was like yep there you go okay all right well we got there well hey this is us okay nope all right gang any other straight thoughts about this I really like this movie the music the music was great I love the performances

I again I think when you have musicals that again progress the storyline and are not too confusing and really give you a segue into what these characters are thinking then it does a great job and I love the songs too I think they actually were they resonated with me yeah they were really fun to listen to I love the the production design was just really immersive and fun to look at and also takes you back to the 80s my favorite decade and I love the practical effects and also and I love magic yeah and I and I love seeing the the two different endings. I thought they were

again really tie into a lot of the themes while also I think the theatrical one again has that redemption arc for Seymour as well as while giving him the happy ending so I truly adored this film and I know always talk about recency bias but this might be really up there on my favorite musicals

honestly. Yeah this is really stand out like I like musicals anyway but this was a joy and to see something that has such a sense of movie magic a great ensemble stuff about you know Faustian bargains cycles of abuse what it's like to live in an abandoned you know an underserved part of town

and also fun and whimsy in music and yeah so well directed so well conceived Frank Oz love Frank Oz so much hell yeah it was awesome yeah everything is especially when you're part of a team hey we got there gang leave us your thoughts on a little shop of horrors which ending

you like the best who you would cast in all the roles when you do it yourself and what your favorite whatever was the music and all that stuff and we'll catch you on the next one be well people cheers oh and thanks to prepper like to subscribe and all that good stuff and yeah we love you podcast rate it
