I'm having to be. happy after all this time. What was it, 22, 22 years in the making? 22, yeah. 22 years of anticipation. I finally got to see signs. Andrew, what did you think about the movie? Before I mention what I thought, don't forget to support us over at
Starting point is 00:02:12 Reject Nationshop.com. If you want to look as cool as Aaron as I, and you don't want to get invaded by aliens, you got to check out the shop. So go ahead and support us over there. In regards to the film, I just thought this film, I mean, first of all, I mean, you know what you're going to, I know what I said at the top with Mel Gibson, but aside from that. It's very well acted. I love the family dynamic and camaraderie, how they're a grieving family, and then you got this crazy event happening that kind of brings them together. And Joaquin Phoenix, also great acting as well. And the two children, you know, it's a very tough job. Acting in general is tough, but especially for children. It's a very daunting task,
Starting point is 00:02:50 and I thought the children did a terrific job, very intuitive. They were very proactive, and I liked that and appreciated that. And I just thought it was a great script. Awesome job. I'm nine, Sean Milan as well. I just thought this film was a masterclass and not only suspense and tension, but just, it's got that very slow, what's the word I'm looking for, the slow... Buildup?
Starting point is 00:03:12 Well, definitely the slow buildup. It's just a very slow, what's the word? Slow burn, thank you so much. Aaron, teamwork. It's a very slow burn type of film, you know, a la like Alien in 1979, but I never felt the pacing was a problem,
Starting point is 00:03:28 not even once, Because it's just like you said, it's building up to something. And I loved, again, to the Hitchcock. And I know I said it so many times, but I'm going to say it again. Because I thought it was just done so well with the Hitchcockian approach of Alfred Hitchcock, of not showing the thing, but just giving us the, no pun intended, the signs of the thing. And also, again, Jaws, 1975 with Spielberg, again, barely showing it. Because I think if they would have shown the aliens, I think it would have just, I don't know. I just think our minds create something, you know, a little different anyways.
Starting point is 00:04:03 It just takes a little bit away from the illusion. So I thought that was a very smart approach. But I loved it. I'd love to hear your thoughts. Oh, man. I also really enjoyed it. I thought that it was something that, you know, going into it, I only heard things about the fact that, you know, there was tension. And, like, honestly, it's an Amnichshamlan movie.
Starting point is 00:04:20 It's one of his classic. The fact that, you know, there's these big old twists happening in all these movies. And then we saw that Mel Gibson star in it. Funny enough, I don't think there was, like, a major twist. I think there was not a mind-blowing twist in this movie, which is kind of contrary to what we know, Emline and Sean Juan for traditionally. But the thing I really liked about this movie is the fact that,
Starting point is 00:04:42 well, first of all, I'm the type of viewer that when I watch movies, I like to invest in characters, you know? I think that there's, it's a general statement, but I think there's really two types of movies. Movies that get you invested in its plot or its atmosphere are really, movies are really focusing on characters. And I found that this one to be the latter In fact, this really got to
Starting point is 00:05:02 Breathe in those characters And I said kind of early on that You know, okay, why is this alien invasion Focusing in on this family specifically And them grieving? And I feel like that's the entire point of the movie. I feel like this is a movie that is about grief And trauma and
Starting point is 00:05:20 And bonding more than it is about the aliens themselves This is just the crux of the event That brought them in To allow them to actually actually grieved. And I think that it was really interesting starting off with a character who lost faith, who wouldn't allow himself to really grieve. He's kind of like, he's for the larger half of this movie, Mel Gibson was kind of stoic or at least was playing his character a lot more reserved. And as things started to escalate, you started to see some of that pain.
Starting point is 00:05:48 You started to see some of those emotions come out, some of that fear come out and that conversation that we had to have towards the end or towards the middlish end between like the first group of people that see signs or see a miracle and the second group of people that see fear I thought that was a very poignant conversation and kind of like the point of this movie you know I think you make such an astute and wonderful observation like yes the aliens
Starting point is 00:06:10 are a part of the film and there's a lot of mystery you know going on and just like why are they here what's going on but yeah the whole point of the film is just about grief and you know this family healing through a very traumatic time and it takes such a traumatic time for them to heal through it and for and and I thought Mel Gibson's character goes through a wonderful arc throughout the film just like he's incredible again just questioning his I mean he's lost his faith obviously
Starting point is 00:06:35 and just continuously questioning his faith through it like and you know I mean there's so many times throughout the film when people are still calling him father and he's like that's not who I am anymore and like the signs are there like dude you got that's who you are that was always who you were pre-dained to always be right and but again I really appreciate that observation you just made like that's really the point of the film is it's the characters and that it's about grief um and the aliens are again while being an important part of the film for sure it's kind of just the background if you will you know it's it's like the last of us uh if you will just to make a quick comparison like yes uh we we have the clickers and the runners and all and that is very important
Starting point is 00:07:17 stuff for sure but in regards to the first uh game slash tv show joll and ellie are the main crux of of why this why we get so damn invested and that's why I was so invested in this like yeah I was curious about the aliens but I was so invested in the family and like what was happening with them and then and them healing and trying to move on through such a traumatic event and even if there wasn't this whole traumatic alien event I was still invested in what was going because like we said it was a slow burn type of film like not yes the alien thing was happening but really again because it was such a slow burn not much was really happening was happening at such a slow burn type of pace that, you know, it's, again, I was more emotionally pulled
Starting point is 00:07:59 to everything that was going on in every line of dialogue and every action each character was taking. So, yeah, I think that's such a wonderful point that you pulled out. Yeah, this movie does a great job of reveling in its drama and letting you sit with his characters while also having great tension at the same time. Absolutely. When we do finally start to see the aliens and things do start to ramp up that it all feels earned because we got to sit with these characters because we've established the foundation of who these people were
Starting point is 00:08:28 before we put them into an event that potentially can cause them harm which allows us to care more about the characters when we do finally see them in these settings. It was interesting watching a movie that is like the reference point for other movies that I've seen because I feel like I have
Starting point is 00:08:45 larger experiences with movies that are more more modern and then getting to explore these older movies. I feel like I garner a greater appreciation for them because I see like the nucleus point of what inspired these other films. The two movies that are primarily coming to mind
Starting point is 00:09:00 in recent history that this movie definitely inspired were one, leave the world behind, this movie that came out last year with Julia Roberts and Ethan Hawke. And another movie, or series of movies now, would be The Quiet Place. I feel like I definitely see inspirations from a quiet place bonding over the, this family and these two adults and these kids in the face of this scary situation, especially all the stuff in the basement really, really reminded me of a quiet place. And I definitely like these kind of stories that kind of revel in connection as the foundation of what we're going through.
Starting point is 00:09:43 And even in that movie, well, I don't want to spoil if you haven't seen a quiet place. but there is, without spoiling it directly, there is a sense of loss that happens fairly early on. And yeah, the characters have to deal with that experience over the course of the film and while also kind of bonding with one another. And I think that we need art,
Starting point is 00:10:09 we need movies to inspire us to pull further experiences out and especially something more specifically with the grief of a spouse and the grief of, losing a loved one, not only a loved one, a partner, which causes you lose faith. How do you, as the foundation of a patriarchy, or at least within the context of this movie, kind of support your family when you yourself are lost? I think kind of seeing how that come to fruition and, you know, not really knowing how to bring comfort to your family because you don't know how to bring comfort to yourself, I think that
Starting point is 00:10:42 was very powerful in him learning how to step up to be that leader again. to be that father again, to guide his brother into telling him what to do to stop the alien and then to be there for his son and then realizing that he's able to save him. I think that was very powerful. And it's like, yeah, it's one of those movies that,
Starting point is 00:11:03 at least for me, the longer you sit with it, the more you pull out of it, because I feel like it's a very dense movie dialogue-wise and has a lot to say, but it uses it. It's runtime in a very smart way because it does have a lot to say,
Starting point is 00:11:16 but it does it in a very, intelligent way to kind of weave the story and its themes together. Yeah, for sure. I've never seen Leave the World Behind. Yeah, it's on Netflix. It's controversial, but I definitely see the themes here. I've never seen it, but yeah, in regards to Quiet Place, I could totally see that.
Starting point is 00:11:32 I would say, too, like, if you notice, I'm going to say my favorite two or probably even three favorite scenes, I would say in terms of the best acting as well, and also the scenes that just drew me in emotionally, the scene where they're at the dinner table, Just talking could be their last meal and the way they're just letting everything out. I just thought that, again, the acting and just I love the dialogue in that scene. And then how, you know, the children kind of just let it out too, like how they're displeased with their father and the way he's behaving in that moment.
Starting point is 00:12:05 Like, again, just so well acted, so powerful. And also, too, I really enjoyed that conversation on the couch between Joaquin Phoenix and Mel Gibson. I thought that was a good scene also, too, that. And it wasn't a long scene, but that scene that just got me emotional as well. And I would imagine most people with Mel Gibson and his wife, where she was, I mean, again, I like that they didn't spend too much time because that's a hard scene to watch. But yeah, just like, how do you react and behave in that moment, like knowing this is the last time you get to talk to your spouse? Right. And obviously, I know that I took some comfort knowing she's not in a ton of pain, but still, like, this is it.
Starting point is 00:12:45 this is our last conversation. Now I got to be strong in this moment. For you. And not only for you, but also for our children after this too. And yeah, but it's like just watching like him like you could see right there in that moment like I think what was so powerful in that performance just seeing like he's
Starting point is 00:13:01 losing a loved one but also too you can kind of see his he's losing his faith in that moment too just like there is no God. And I think too. And like I think he did a good job of emoting that expression. And there was a lot of times too just again giving Mel Gibson his problem. as an actor. He was showing a different array of emotions in so many different scenes.
Starting point is 00:13:21 So I really appreciated his performance in this film a great deal. Yeah, yeah. I can say the same. You know, I definitely understand why he was such a big star in the early 2000s, the 80s through the early 2000s, you know, and seeing how accessible his emotions are
Starting point is 00:13:43 and his vulnerability is. It's funny because, Um, you're, you're the movie, man, with all the, the knowledge, but I wanted to say, as I was, this guy, this, this cool guy right here, this, this fellow. I was right here. Uh, it's funny because I was watching and I was like, damn, I feel like, no Gibson make a really good Wolverine. But I feel like he was like, wasn't he the original choice? I could see him go berserk mode. Wasn't he, I don't he just, between his eyes and his voice. I mean, back, back in his prime, I believe the original choice was Deggerie Scott. And the reason. he didn't get it was because, oh, he got it, but he was filming Mission Impossible to him because of reshoots. They said, sorry, you're stuck doing that.
Starting point is 00:14:23 We're going to go with a man named Hugh Jackman, so see you later. And, yeah, I think Hugh Jackman's favorite film now is Mission Impossible, too, if I'm not mistaken. And maybe many of ours, too, for that reason, not because of the actual film itself. He's got to see Mission Impossible. I knew that about Aaron, and he might not even have known. I remembered that. He hasn't seen any of them. I know.
Starting point is 00:14:44 Let us know in the comment section. he needs to watch him. But yeah, no, I mean, back in Mel Gibson's Prime, I could, when he was a little younger, I could definitely see him playing that. Although, again, I'm glad we got Hugh Jackman. It was so perfect. But I could definitely see him going playing Wolverine.
Starting point is 00:14:58 But we, I got to tell you, too. This is, the way this film was shot, the cinematography, some of the reveals with aliens and a lot of close-ups too. And sometimes, like, it can be a little jarring for me personally when there's a crap ton of close-ups, but I actually thought it was done. done the right way. And this film had built up suspense and tension the way it was done. And again, just seeing people's reactions, not only because of how they were grieving, but because of reacting
Starting point is 00:15:23 to the situation as well. So I just thought that was great. And also, too, there were some really good lines of dialogue. And just explaining the situation I like with that book where because we saw, I forgot Rory Colkin's name, where he's explaining the situation, again, showing how he's proactive of a character to explain to his dad, like, hey, this is why they're here and blah, blah, blah, blah. I thought that was all really good lines of dialogue right there too. But again, the cinematography in this film was absolutely fantastic. I'm curious to know when I look it up later if this film was nominated for cinematography because it was, I don't know. I'm just taking a guess, but I just thought it was so well shot. And also, too, I thought the music by James Newton Howard, like I said,
Starting point is 00:16:08 one of my favorite scores of all time is unbreakable. There's so many heroic themes to that film. obviously so it's a superhero type film makes sense but i thought this film too just with the music just really again like you said with the atmosphere just really just added to that that scary vibe and that and that suspense and tension like it also helps that we're wearing speakers with the volume lab but still that that i mean you get that feel too when you see a movie in a theater but still the uh his music just added to my fear levels uh so and also too in the dramatic moments too where we're supposed to give a shit and feel on top of the great acting
Starting point is 00:16:45 and the characters that were already invested in. I thought he did a good job just elevating it even more. So I really think James Newton Howard is a fantastic composer. And I believe you already love him so much, as many of you do, as he's one of the two composers and Batman begins in Dark Night as alongside Hans Zimmer. But he was not with him and The Dark Night Rises. Hans Zimmer was on his own because I believe James Newton Howard said,
Starting point is 00:17:07 hey, you guys did your own thing in Inception. So I'm going to let you guys do your own thing in Dark Night Rises. Oh, wow. Yeah, but yeah, do you have anything else you want to add before I look up some of the fun facts? No, I think I, we touched on all the ones. I feel like this will be one I'm going to be chewing on for a little bit and like, I'll go back to him like, oh, what didn't I say that? But yeah, I really much enjoyed this movie. And despite the fact that it's 20 years old, it's really, it still holds up really well.
Starting point is 00:17:34 Yeah, for sure. Ask to Pro and go, it's faster, bro. Ladies and gentlemen, I got so excited. excited. They know I got excited when they wanted to partner up with us yet again. And let me tell you why. I see a couple months ago when we were first approached by them for our first sponsored agreement, I wanted to try them out before agreeing to do a sponsorship with them. Reason being is because I get terrible allergies. Roxie's dry whenever she shows up here usually points it out because she happens to catch me on the days when my allergies are acting up.

Starting point is 00:18:06 too, I have a deviated septum, so I often have a difficult time breathing through my right nostril. I'm a person who needs a nasal allergy spray. Needless to say, didn't mean to rhyme bars. And when I used Astopro, I fell in love. I really believe in this allergy spray. They sent me over that one sample.

I heavily vouch for them, reject names.
Starting point is 00:19:38 give him a shot thank you but yeah i'm curious to know what other interesting facts are to know about signs interesting facts let's see oh okay wakene phoenix replaced mark ruffalo who had to pull out of the film due to a brain tumor what it was later found to be benign what wow it's crazy because i feel like as far as siblings go he looks a lot closer uh walking phoenix looks closer to Mel Gibson, then Mark Ruffalo does. But I'm sure Mark Ruffalo still would have. I know exactly what you're saying, but I still feel like Mark Ruffalo would have done a phenomenal job
Starting point is 00:20:14 in this too as well. But I totally get what you're saying. You're saying both are phenomenal actors, but you're just saying in terms of family appearance, Waukeen probably just looks a little more like Mel. Totally. Yeah, yeah. I can see that too. But, okay, interesting. I'm just glad Mark's okay. Yeah, seriously.
Starting point is 00:20:30 Wow, that's a crazy story. The stories of the children's birth are actually the stories of M. Shamelon's two children. What? Wow. So have you ever rewatched the movie? Now you know those stories are for real.
Starting point is 00:20:44 Just not these children. That's crazy. It's cool for him infusing a little bit of life into his art. Yeah, no, that is cool. Wow. So the artwork in the book about extraterrestrials was done by writer and director M. Night Shyamalan's daughter, Salika Shamalon. Huh.
Starting point is 00:21:02 Oh, right. We saw like the alien drawings on. Yeah, yeah. Damn. Alien. Wow, that's, and that was really good, too. Like, I could just draw a smiley face, so clearly way more talented than me. He's a family man.
Starting point is 00:21:14 Yeah. Okay, the production used a new watering technique to make the corn grow faster, which the Delaware Valley Agricultural College was then very keen to adopt for themselves. Okay. Cool. The crop circles are real, as M. Night Shyamalan doesn't particularly like using. CGI. I wonder how they did that. Is there a fact that they're saying how they did that? It does not. It might say it later, but it did not in that particular one. I appreciate that he
Starting point is 00:21:44 doesn't like. Again, I don't, I've said this many times soon. I'll just repeat it here in case some of you haven't heard it. I don't mind CGI. I just like it when it's blend with practical. I think if you can balance it out, that's where the illusion still holds up for me. It's just when you're bombastically using it too much. And it's like, that's where I get taken out of the illusion. I'm like, okay, this is, I'm just too much. Yeah, you're desensitized to it. Yeah, exactly. Hamonite Shamelon said this was the easiest of all his films to write and direct.
Starting point is 00:22:14 Really? Okay. I wonder if he was going through something at the time, and that's what inspired him. Yeah. Because it clearly infuses a lot of family and life into his stories. At least this one, so that's far. Mel Gibson didn't realize Shamelon was playing the vet until the day that they came to shoot their scenes together. What?
Starting point is 00:22:33 I would be, I wish like... That's cool. Someone would just, here, I haven't told Melia just record. Oh, wait, we don't have cell phones at this point. I guess just take this camera and just let's get his reaction to seeing I'm the one who's going to be playing the guy who, you know, took out his wife. Yeah. Did they say again, I apologize if I just mislined I like, it was clearly, obviously it was an accident, right? Of course, no.
Starting point is 00:22:55 He said he fell asleep. That's what the whole conversation was. He fell asleep at the wheel, right? If it was any sooner or any later, like I wouldn't have hit her, but because it was 15 seconds, it was like almost if it meant to happen. But he said, but he said he was dozing. off, right? Fell asleep. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:08 I thought that's what I heard. Okay. M. Night Shyamalan wanted Mel Gibson because he's, and I quote, the guy you believe would protect his family at all costs. Yeah. Those eyes, man. Those intense eyes. That Brazilian video was shot with a household camcorder by M.
Starting point is 00:23:28 Night Shyamalan himself. I could totally buy that. I believe that. For sure. All right. We'll do a couple more. M. I know you're like, when Andrew says a couple more, that means like a 10 more.
Starting point is 00:23:37 It's like seven. M. Night Shyamalan insisted that the film posters be released without showing Mel Gibson's face as it is an ensemble piece that didn't refer to the sixth sense. And it's an entirely different film. That makes sense to be, no pun intended. That does make, I really. It made six cents. That makes six sense.
Starting point is 00:23:59 That does make sense to because the reason I say that is when Unbreakable came out. that film, which again, as I pointed out many times, I love so much, it had the uncanny and unfavorable thing of following such a great film of M. Night Jamelon's The Sixth Sense that so many people were comparing it to that.
Starting point is 00:24:17 It's like, it's a totally different film. Why are you comparing it? So so many, like a lot of creative reviews were like, it's not as good as it. It's not the Sixth Sense. It's not trying to be. It's a totally, it's a superhero film. Are you comparing it?
Starting point is 00:24:31 Ridiculous. Yeah. Um, M. Night Chomlan was so secretive about the script that Mel Gibson joked it, and I quote, came with a padlock. Yeah, this is the days before Marvel films. Everything's so secretive. Right. Rather unusually, James Duden Howard, the composer, started scoring the film before it had been shot, as he was able to work from M. Night Shyamalan's detailed storyboards. That's really cool. Getting stuff done. All right. Do two more from the spoiler section, and we shall. And we'll take the signs to call it a day. It's seven more. Yeah, right. Seven more.
Starting point is 00:25:09 The aliens were originally going to be invisible, but M. Knight-Shammalon couldn't get the effect he wanted. And also, he didn't want Andrew to say it was going to be a rip-off of predator. That would have been. I did like how his hand blended into the kids' clothes. That was cool. But I actually, you know what? I mean, if they would have won with the invisible,
Starting point is 00:25:27 it looked fine. But I thought it was effective. I mean, again, it was very minimal. CGI and very minimal look at the alien I thought it was effective the look we did get personally but let us know in the comment section what did you think of the look of the alien would you've preferred it to be invisible I'm curious
Starting point is 00:25:41 would you have preferred invisible or the what we got? I'm trying to see it I want to see that alien yeah I liked what we got all right last one let me just pick a good one here oh okay this is interesting and I think this adds to your point about the movie being like again about the characters
Starting point is 00:25:59 and about grief and all that but 90 minutes into the film The aliens have only been on screen For 11 seconds Wow In total They're only in the film Do you want to guess how long
Starting point is 00:26:12 Of screen time How long they were in the movie Two minutes So close One minute and 30 seconds So close But you know it's funny to that Again just going a little off base here
Starting point is 00:26:25 So if you guys ever watch The review of I hope this is not a spoiler for you is you are one of the rare human beings who have not seen the masterpiece known as Beetlejuice. I don't think this is a spoiler, but anyways. So Siskel and Ebert, I believe you know those two. They ripped that movie apart.
Starting point is 00:26:43 I completely disagree with that. They said Beetlejuice was in the movie. Michael Keaton's character of Beal Juice was in the movie way too long, and he's actually only in the movie for about 17 or 18 minutes of the film. But when you watch the movie, it feels like he's in it so much longer. So fun fact, that has nothing to do with what we're talking about. now but i only felt it was relevant to bring that up because we were just talking about a minute
Starting point is 00:27:03 and a half so uh i love that and i'd be curious to know too if y'all would let us know in the comment section how long did we get to see the shark and jaws like of screen time of just seeing the actual shark it's probably only i got to imagine like maybe five or six minutes something like that wow so i i got to imagine just my guess but uh yeah well thanks for the for the facts man those were some interesting ones too i thought those are some really really good ones yeah those are some great facts and if you guys have any other facts you want to let us know please shout out in the comments let us know we're always reading them always seeing what you guys have to say and yeah if you guys have any of their cool things about signs or just signs in general please
Starting point is 00:27:42 hit us up let us know you guys are dope thanks for watching this with us we really appreciate you guys and we'll see you guys in the next one deuces brian parry brian brian brian brian boy brian You know, when I was a wee lad, I once beat up a Brian. Oh, why? What do you do? Well, he looked at me the wrong way. John, and I said, you can rot in hell, little man. I was eight, he was four.
Starting point is 00:28:12 Ooh. Kicked his teeth. Kicked his teeth in. No one ever knew about it. Little did they know. This Brian would grow up, John. Oh, no. This Brian would grow up.
Starting point is 00:28:23 And then he would secretly enter our Patreon page. He would change his name from B.R. I-A-N to B-R-Y-O-N so I can never suspect a sight. That's actually a smart idea. But you son of a bitch. I see what you did. I figured it out. You were that four-year-old kid.
Starting point is 00:28:41 You thought you could corner me when I'm with... He broke into my home, John. Broke into my home. And all you heard was the whistling through his missing teeth that he never got fixed because he's so mad at you. He wanted to kill me. He wanted it. And then what did he hear after he like beat me up and had a gunpoint? He hears in the other room, Daddy, what's going on?
Starting point is 00:29:03 Papa Greene. And I went, no, go, go away. It's okay, sweetie, it's okay. Leave. Put Brian in a conflict. Should he pull the trigger in front of my own daughter? Oh, no. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:29:15 He could, though, and teach an important lesson. He lowered the weapon. And then I tackled his ass and I kicked more of his teeth in. And then my daughter stepped in, kicked him in the ball sack. Bam. It's like a speed bag. Boom, boom, boom. Bitches get stitches, Brian.
Starting point is 00:29:36 That's right, Brian. What's you got? What you got to say about that? That's what happens, man. Want more, you know where to find it. You brought this on yourself, Brian Perry. You brought the sign yourself. With your own actions.
Starting point is 00:29:48 You were a malevolent four-year-old. Can I say? You done messed up, Brian. Yeah. You don't messed up. And now the whole world knows. Thank you.
