Welcome back to Caravan of Garbage, where we are currently working our way through three 2020 apocalypse movies that weren't made in the year 2020 but are set in the year 2020.

And have nothing to do with pandemics, so we can all just be like, oh, thank God, the world's blowing up for a different reason. So everything's cool. We can just not focus on that. We can focus on this. Exactly. Everything's A-OK. What are the odds that the world will also blow up?

Pretty slim, but not that slim, you know? No, that's absolutely it. If you could leave a like, that'd be great. Because this week we are doing Edge of Tomorrow based on the light novel, All You Need Is Kill. And what's a light novel? That's like a young adult novel, I think. I guess so.

I think it's printed on a different flimsier paper, I believe. Oh, goodness. Yes. Like a magazine. Oh, my goodness. How did they even acquire it so they could write a script based on it? It'd probably be blown away in the wind. No doubt.

That's why they're so good. Now, this was never efficient. This didn't do well. It did okay. I wondered about that. Because again, you know. We can talk about the box office. It's got, you know, the great man Tom Cruise,

the box office heavyweight Tom Cruise. I think it's a good script. Yep. Looks good. Looks terrific. But it didn't do well is what you're saying. No, so on a budget of $178 million and a fairly comprehensive marketing push,

it made $370 million, which is not great. Is that because it's not a good name? It's not a good name. I mean, they sort of rebranded it as Live, Die, Repeat for the home release and on some of the posters, but it's never officially been called that. Which is a better name. A much better name.

That was the tagline and you instantly get a sense of it. But Edge of Tomorrow, what is that? Is it a coming-of-age movie about some teens? It's the last day of high school, and what are they going to do after that? Lose their virginities? Exactly. You can't get Tom Cruise for that, can you? You need a cohesive title that's not ridiculous.

Twister makes sense. What's it about? Cows, flying cows. Greenland, what's it about? Jerry Butler, what's he doing? He's the president or he's saving the president? Who knows? Wow. He could be Butler. What's he doing? He's the president or he's saving the president? Who knows? Wow.

He could be both. It's Comets. I've got to save my twin brother, the president. Save me, other Jerry Butler. It's about Comets. I know, I know. But I love Tom Cruise sci-fi film. I love a minority report.

You love an oblivion. I love an oblivion. I love 40 minutes of War of the Worlds. I think that 40 minutes in that movie that's really good is really good. And this one is, it's a terrific premise. Do you want to break down the premise? What do you think the premise was? Oh no, gosh, let me think.

Okay, so, Meteor's crashed on Earth. Turns out it's filled with bees. Weird, yeah, but alien bees. Yeah. The worst kind. And then these aliens called Mimics. They're pretty good at defeating Earth's military forces and bloody, bloody... Then, then the tide of war has turned

and then humans have some victories. But then they're on the back foot again. But then Tom Cruise, he's a slick PR guy for the military. He's looking good. He's feeling good. He's got great hair, tremendous hair. How does he do it? And then he's sent to war.

He doesn't like it, but he's put in there for some reason. Yeah. And then. Because he's supposed to report on the war. They're like, we want you on the front line. Brendan Gleeson's like, well, I'm from Braveheart, and I think you should be on the front line. And he's like, well, I'm not from Braveheart,

so I don't want to go on the front line. I mean, the best of was in The Last Samurai. I think I was shot on the front line. And he's like, well, I'm not from Braveheart, so I don't want to go on the front line. I mean, the best of was in The Last Samurai. I think I was shot at the end of that. I think I lived because I was The Last Samurai, but hmm. Anyway, that's not enough to send me on the front lines, but he gets sent to the front lines and he is killed by one of the aliens, but not before he gets some of the alien goop upon him,

which gives him the ability to repeat the day over and over again. Now, I have a question for you, James. Yes, it's a video game save point. It is, of course, but in our previous week's video, Reign of Fire, the main character gets dragon goop in their face, and you were very happy that they did not gain any sort of dragon powers. But in this movie, the main character gets alien goop in their face and does gain alien powers.

So how do you feel about that? Look, if you break down the time travel mechanics of it, it doesn't really make a lot of sense. Doesn't it? It mostly makes sense. It's mostly the ending where, we'll talk about it, the way it resets. But I guess if you don't give him that ability,

he's just a man who gets melted on a battlefield and that's the end of the movie. I mean, sure, I'll watch that. I'll watch it. I'll watch a 20-minute movie. I bet that's on YouTube as a 10-hour loop of Tom Cruise gets his face melted by aliens. We could actually determine also roughly

how many times he died and came back and how long it took. I've got some stats. You think he came, okay, right. Sort of. We'll talk about it at the end. But yeah, the premise behind this idea is terrific. And what I like about it also is

Tom Cruise is often, not always, but he's a clean-cut, good-at-everything kind of guy. And he eventually becomes that in this movie. But he's this smarmy, slick PR douchebag. What I like about this movie is that initially he is put into sort of this Starship Troopers-esque sort of mechanised fighting suit called the Jacket. All the frontline shock troops have it.

Kit Gurry's there! I know, Australia's own Kit Gurry. Wait, is it Kit Gurry? It's Kit Gurry. That seems wrong. Oh, well. But what I enjoy about that... I'll take it up with the Gurry family.

...is that he is put into this suit and he doesn't know how to operate it. So it takes away Tom Cruise's main physical feature, that he is incredible at running. Yes, that's right incredible at running. Yes. And initially you're like, no, no, Tom. What have they done to you? In the novelisation, the light novel,

it's one of those things they're so difficult to use. It's like treading on eggshells. And if you twist the wrong way, it'll just shatter all your bones. I know. And you don't really get that sense in this, but it does feel like if you don't know what you're doing in this suit, you're just not going to do well. Well, I certainly hope then you have some co-workers

that are willing to help you get through your initial baby steps with this armor. They yell at you and tell you you're going to die. They do, and then he does. Then he does, yeah. But no, all the wire work in this, because they wore practical suits, and the fact that they made them look light and balletic and all those kind of things is pretty incredible, because's like an 80 pound suit or something like that depending on

what version you're wearing so it's pretty incredible how they how they bring it all together the stunt work in this though there's a lot of practical stuff and that normandy style landing sequence some of the best stuff in the movie the flips and spins and the sand kicking up and the aliens spaghettiing around getting up to trouble the aliens the design i actually really like the design i i actually really like the design. I watched some behind-the-scenes stuff, and what I sort of didn't realise going into it is they're mostly a head and the rest is just tentacles,

and that's why they can be, like, this amorphous and they can kind of take any shape and kind of rub a band across. But I get the sense that you don't like them? I think initially I enjoyed it, but I think towards the end the the novelty of them wears off and again that is probably partly because uh tom cruise's character has gone through the day so many times it's just like oh here we go again right but i kind of like i feel like maybe once you get the sense that they're just you know face and tentacles the novelty wears off

yeah actually towards the end when he's facing off against a couple and he's lost his powers. I'm like, just do what you always do. Just do the thing again. Yeah, just do the thing again. Emily Blunt's great in this. She does it all. Mary Poppins, sassy receptionist. Got a deaf kid. She does it all.

Quiet Place, that's the one. Yes, indeed. She's great. Apparently she started to do all her stunts in this and then she got pregnant. So when they came back for the reshoots, Tom Cruise was like, why aren't you doing all your stunts?

Do stunts like me. Try and kill yourself like me, Tom Cruise. But she's like, I'm pregnant, Tom Cruise. He was like the third person to find out. Maybe even after John Krasinski. What does that say about their relationship? Who am I to speculate? Who am I to speculate?

This isn't Hollywood gossip, Mason. No. They're doomed is what I'm saying. Oh, my God. I'm sure they're fine. Bill Paxton or Bill Pullman's in it. Which one is it? I did that for you.

It's Paxton. It is, yeah. Not his last role, but it's kind of one of his last kind of major roles. I mean, his last role with that very specific mustache. Oh, yeah. Very good. Yeah. You a fan?

I love it. I was going to say, Emily Blunt is great as this kind of, specific mustache oh yeah very good yeah you're a fan i love it yeah i was gonna say uh emily blunt is great as this kind of she she was the the soldier that gained tom cruise's powers before him and then lost them again and so she becomes sort of this she's sort of this world weary yeah soldier who has to constantly retrain him yes a lot of bullets to the head yes that's right with no remorse and no mercy i also like that again, I saw this in the behind the scenes, that blade is fashioned from a helicopter blade. And that's something she just picked up, you know,

through her potentially years of training. Yeah, right, uh-huh. That she's like, this is easier if I just cut a bit off. You know, I'll run out of bullets at any point. I'm just going to wield a giant anime sword instead, which I think works really well. Yeah, I was going to say I'm surprised she didn't pick that up at like the Final Fantasy cosplay store, yes yeah sure yeah what i don't understand about

this movie is if the aliens came to earth with the ability to time travel yes how had they not won yet oh because they all know it do you know what i mean it's not like it's just one person like they don't have a tom cruise who keeps going back and resetting yes like their hive mind like it branches out to all of them they're all thinking the same thing at the same time so i don't understand how you could potentially lose any battle well that's a very good question thanks i'm not sure if the frontline soldiers know because they seem to repeat the same things over and over again i think maybe maybe the time resetting mechanism is just a, it's like a survival mechanism,

and it only operates when the Amiga feels it's in real danger, which is when the Alphas are killed, I think. Okay, fair enough. Sure. Also, maybe it's just a little bit forgetful. Maybe it is, yeah. Maybe this one's been sent out to destroy Earth because they don't trust it, you know, at work on the home planet.

You know what I mean? Yeah, absolutely, yeah. What I also like about the implication of one of the scenes in this movie, Tom Cruise rolls under a truck and is crushed, and Bill Pullman... Paxton, you will not get me. And Bill Paxton is like, oh, my God, look at this idiot. What has he done?

Implying that the universe continues... Continues after he's died, every time. Which means that every time Emily Blunt shoots him in the head. She's immediately arrested by the military police, I guess. That being said, there's also the theory that maybe he wasn't quite dead yet. I think that's probably it. So yeah, I guess we're just going to go with that. I think if you assume that every time he died, that reality continues.

First of all, it's sad for everybody in that universe because their world was destroyed by aliens. Sure. And also, it doesn't bear thinking about. It's too sad. No, it really doesn't, yeah. Think of all those military funerals for dead Tom Cruise, you know?

I thought they would give him a military funeral. No, that's true. They'd just kick him into a ditch. I feel like the finale, it's good when they're getting to the loo they've got that awesome drop ship it's all happening but i feel like it's a little it gets a little dark when they get underground and underwater it's a little difficult just physically dark i thought so yeah i mean it all still looks very good it's a mostly cgi environment with cgi creatures you

know running about but it's it's it mostly looks good but what i was pointing to earlier was the reset that he gets at the very end is three days prior or whatever it is before he gets arrested and all the aliens are dead yeah i didn't understand that either that's what i'm talking about specifically like why why does that work i know and i know it's also because that means all his friends are alive and now we can go kiss emily blunt and that's cool that is very and that's another theory of mine that tom cruise movies where he kisses a woman don't do well the mummy this that one with cameron diaz do you think word gets around do you think initial reports on the kiss are not good well a lot of the movies it's

just the one here's the thing i know but i think and it's interesting because the evolution of that relationship isn't necessarily a romantic one, or maybe it is. Yeah. FX is the Veil explores the surprising and fraught relationship between two women who play a deadly game of truth and lies on the road from Istanbul to Paris and London. One woman has a secret, the other a mission to reveal it before thousands of lives are lost. FX's The Veil, starring Elizabeth Moss, is now streaming on Disney+. There's a moment in the movie where they all go to a, they all, the two remaining living characters, Emily Blunt and Tom Cruise, go to sort of a farmhouse and Tom Cruise is trying to

delay the remainder of their trip because he knows Emily Blunt gets killed as soon as she leaves the farmhouse, and she figures out that he is trying to delay her because they've done this dance many times before. It's maybe sort of implied they had a romantic liaison there, and they tried to make a little life together. Sure. As long as you don't step 20 feet to the right, you'll live.

We can live here for 40 years. But yeah, so it's not a romantic relationship in the strictest terms, especially towards the end. There is one kiss, but it's kind of like, world's going to end, we may as well try it. Well, apparently it was Emily Blunt improv that on set. There wasn't supposed to be a kiss. Oh, maybe there is trouble in paradise for her and Krasinski.

Maybe there is. The thing is... I'd rather be kissed to death by tom cruise thank you the thing is about tom cruise i think a lot of people they buy him as an action star despite being mid-50s you know he's getting up there and they buy him as this incredibly charming handsome man who's seemingly ageless and indestructible but the idea that because of all the weird Scientology stuff that has happened, that you can buy him as a viable romantic lead has kind of died off. Because a lot of his movies, and you look at the Mission Impossible films, for example,

the relationships for him become, I'm too in love with America to have a relationship with you right now. Do you know what I mean? Look, I would be in a relationship with you, but I have another wife. You wouldn't know her. She's under an assumed identity in another city. Sorry.

Probably Canada, I don't know. I don't know. She's a model too, but you can't see or meet her. Sorry. I don't know. It's not a real theory. It doesn't mean anything, but it's interesting that Tom Cruise did kind of transition from this jerry mcguire-esque heartthrob into this action star you know but he's

also done it fairly seamlessly it's not like you know nick cage where he just does action schlock for the most part you know it's i don't know i just find it interesting anyway do you want some stats on how many times he potentially died and for how long for? Yes, please. And can we compare and contrast to Phil Connors in Grand Hog Day? I actually have those stats also. Very good. Because, you know, I mean, it's tough to say. Phil Connors may have spent, you know, years and years in that reality, but he didn't fight off an alien invasion.

Or did he? Did he? It's tough to say. We don't know. Maybe there's a deleted scene. So he dies 24 times on screen. Right. In the book, it's 160 days in total.

That, to me, though, doesn't seem enough that you'd be able to memorize everything, including coffee orders and where aliens are coming in through roofs. No, it seems to me he's been doing this for years and years. What I liked about it is that it's just right on the cusp of being exhausting for the viewer. Yes. But it was very well edited in the sense that... It feels tight, right? It does feel tight in the sense that

they cut out... Obviously he has to repeat he wakes up and then he's sent to the barracks and all that sort of stuff but they seem to have cut out just the right things that you go,

I get it. Same things happen, let's move on. I know where he is. Yeah, exactly. He also mentions in the movie that he's lost count of how many times

this has happened. Okay, so more than 10. More than 10. Because that's the number of fingers you have. That right toes as well 20 so it's more than 20 times tom cruise has one big webbed foot on one foot as well oh my goodness it's his greatest secret so that's 10 5 1 16 okay yeah 16 digits all right so it's more than 16 times yes uh to jump over to groundhog day apparently this is people have done the actual stats on this and based on there being 10 000 hours to master a

task which includes ice sculpting piano memorizing ice cream flavors to trick andy mcdowell romance romance exactly that's 12 403 days okay also the people behind those movies have said it could be in the tens of thousands and whatever and the thing is if you look at that in terms of 10 000 hours to master a task with that kind of finesse in combat he mentions that he's lost count of how many times he's seen her die he's memorizing information about people precise movements of aliens and vehicles and ships and gun blasts and explosions we don't know he could have done it for a million years he could have done it for a million years wow it could have been six months yeah yep i get the sense that it could have had a real lucky week yeah you don't know i get the sense that it's hundreds of years maybe

but look i did a lot of research on this you know different ideas of what people have nobody definitively knows and i'm sure the director will come out at some point and just go i don't know four years or whatever you know but at the moment and then people will be like this is an outrage certainly he doesn't know what he's talking about because i've done the numbers and yeah certainly more than that it's almost like he said something arbitrarily to get people to stop asking him things yeah that's crazy yeah but it's not gonna work because people will be like hey remember last time people asked you you said four years well we've done some numbers maybe is it a thousand years and he'd be like yes that's what i meant to say yeah you misheard me yeah that's right You're like, hey, remember last time people asked you, you said four years. Well, we've done some numbers. Maybe is it a thousand years?

And he'd be like, yes, that's what I meant to say. Yeah, you misheard me. Yeah, that's right. But if people do have an idea, I genuinely love to know. Put a random number in the comments. That's how many years he trained for this. And if other people could comment yes or no, whether that's true, that'd be very helpful. Maybe like this video the number of years you think.

Yes. That he was in it. Which is one, right? Yeah, one year. Good. It's trivia time. Hot, hot, hot trivia. Hot trivia takes.

Our segment. Yeah, I love hot trivia takes. Good. Sorry, hot, hot, hot trivia takes. So Jeremy Piven's character was added during reshoots. Wow, that's hot. I know. But ended up on the cutting room floor.

You say Jeremy Piven's character like... Ari Gold? Yeah, his one character. Or do you mean his character when he was one of Ellen's friends on the sitcom Ellen? Yes, that's who I meant, yes. I think if you add a Jeremy Piven, Ari Gold type, the lead of this movie already is that. But maybe they swap roles and he's even more of a PR guy than Tom Cruise. Oh, he's the replacement PR guy while Tom Cruise is off to war.

Okay. That would make sense. And then he gets his comeuppance and he ends up in the battle. And he dies. And he dies. He's killed. He dies. They pull his plugs out.

Yeah. Not to get political, because I know people hate it when we get political. Hot, hot, hot. Hot, hot. But the implication is that Hillary Clinton is president in this universe. I saw that very briefly. Hot, hot. Ow, so hot.

Too political. Too hot. Tom Cruise spent over $100,000 on a lavish wrap party for the cast and crew. He did not attend himself as he was finishing his scenes for the movie. But everybody who was working on the movie was at the party. I'd imagine him out the back in front of a green screen just doing karate kicks. He's just doing drills. Exactly.

So there you go. That's pretty great. Also, if you were that catering company, you'd probably just be like, he's not coming so we can't supply anything. We're just suppressing. Yes, that's right. Cage is also younger in the book, which makes sense because most of the Tom Cruise roles he's supposed to be like 35. Yeah, right. But he is as short as Tom Cruise.

Fun fact. Because often the characters, you know, like your Jack Reaches, he's supposed to be eight foot tall. And he's got an American pie in one hand and he's strangling a murderer in the other. Sorry, a terrorist in the other. Also, Tom Cruise. I love that American pie is a concept. It's a pie filled with flags. No, he's got a stack of DVDs. Oh, he's carrying the DVD.

Even the ones that didn't go to cinemas. Oh, my God. American Pie, The Magic Mile, or whatever it's called. Yeah, that's right. And the last bit of trivia is Tom Cruise said that he made the film for the audience. How does he do it? I don't know, but he has done it, hasn't he? Yes.

Oh, now that's an American pie I can get behind. Absolutely. So there has been talk of a sequel to this because it was very well received and it did better on your streamings and your DVD releases. But that's kind of in limbo at this moment. Yeah, it's in a constant state of, we've got a great idea, it's going to be a sequel and a prequel and it's going to blow everybody's mind, it's going to redefine sequels.

Yeah. And when's it coming out? We don't know. Never. We're not making it. It's too dangerous. It would actually cause people to end up in a time loop, so we can't do it.

Look, I'd love to see it, but it would kind of be insane if they did make it. It wouldn't really make sense. It would make sense more as you put $200 million and then Netflix buy it for some reason. I was going to say, if anything... Like that horrible Michael Bay movie. Yeah, I mean, and also it is a case of,

okay, you're going to bring back, you know, are you going to bring back Emily Blunt and Tom Cruise? They're kind of busy most of the time. Like, how do you get those schedules? They're in a relationship. Oh my God, it's just hot stuff. Don't tell Krasinski. Some bad news

Am I right? He'd make that video Spicy Yeah if anything I think maybe It would end up on Netflix As a Netflix original But those two aren't in it

Yeah Maybe it's a Like that Minority Report Sequel series Or like American Pie No original cast members Except for the dad Who's great by the way

Eugene Levy You seen Schitt's Creek? Yeah, it's incredible. Incredible stuff. Anyways, next week we'll be back for our final in our 2020 Apocalypse trilogy. But let me ask you this, Mason. Okay, I'm ready. First of all, is it Bill Pullman or Big Paxton?

It's Big Paxton. That's what I call him, Big Papa Paxton. RIP. RIP. He's incredible. But next week, How do you feel about Cancelling the apocalypse? Oh

I get it Yeah I'd be in favour of that That's right We're looking at the movie Click from 2006 With Adam Sandler No

Cancellate apocalypse Bloody rewind On the apocalypse Very true He's got that magic remote control That's right Now we're doing Pacific Rim Which I'm really looking forward to

going back to because I haven't seen it since cinemas and I'm one of the three people who quite like the sequel even though I know it's not as good

that's some wild stuff now here's a question for you of the two movies we've seen so far which apocalypse scenario would you rather be living through

I like dragons the people pointed out technically they're not dragons because dragons walk on all fours are they wyverns yeah something like that but here's the thing here's the thing shut the fuck up that people pointed out technically they're not dragons because dragons walk on all fours. Are they wyverns? Yeah, something like that.

But here's the thing. Here's the thing. Yes. Shut the fuck up. No. I mean, that's my thing. But if they call them dragons in the movie, then that's what they are in this universe.

Yeah, that's right. Because it's a different universe. Imagine being that guy. All of London has fallen. It's just a smoky hellhole. And there's just one guy going, I think you'll find they're actually whiffins. Because their arms are structurally the same as the wings. They're in the same...

Oh, I'm dead now. Who wants to be like, look out for the whiffins? Fuck out of here with that. Yeah, that's right. Sorry, but you were saying, which apocalypse do I want to be in? Yeah.

Well, this one, the world is still intact. I was going to say... I can still go for a pint. You can, the world is still intact. I was going to say. I can still go for a pint. You can absolutely still go for a pint. I can go to Charing Cross. For a pint at the pub, exactly. I can go to Clapham Junction. You can go to the Chippy.

That's right. And get a deep fried kebab. I can get some cheeky Nando's afterwards. That's right. And also, at the end of this, the world's pretty much fine. Yep. I mean, except for a lot of Europe. But we don't live there, so definitely Edge of Tomorrowverse. That's it. And also, at the end of this, the world's pretty much fine. Yep. I mean, except for a lot of Europe. But we don't live there, so definitely Edge of Tomorrowverse.

That's it, exactly. Anyways, if you could subscribe, that'd be great. We also have a website called BigSandwich.co where you can actually go and see all of these videos early and get the extended audio version early additionally. You're not wrong. I'm not wrong. You're very correct.

So, yes, and there's a bunch of early stuff. There's an ad-free feed for our podcast, The Weekly Planet. And're not wrong. I'm not wrong. You're very correct. So yes, and there's a bunch of early stuff. There's an ad-free feed for our podcast, The Weekly Planet. And a bonus podcast. And a bonus podcast, which will hardly spoil here. No snitches.

That's right. Yeah. Anyways, I've been Mr. Sunday Movies and on all platforms. And I'm at Wikipedia around on Twitter. That's right.
