We Hate Movies - S12 Ep588: Infinite
Episode Date: January 18, 2022This week on the program, our (Some of) the Worst of the Previous Year Month continues as the gang chats about the completely incomprehensible Mark Wahlberg movie, Infinite! So we're to believe Mark... is playing a guy born in, ::checks notes::, 1985? Why is he trying to get a job at that restaurant when he clearly could make a living being an underground sword maker? And do the Highlander creators have a case with this source material? PLUS: Toby Jones just choking on that honey... mm-mmm... that's good stuff. Infinite stars Mark Wahlberg, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Sophie Cookson, Dylan O'Brien, Jason Mantzoukas, Rupert Friend, Jóhannes Haukur Jóhannesson, Kae Alexander, Wallis Day, Liz Carr, and Toby Jones; directed by Antoine Fuqua.

this weekend we hate movies. We're talking about a movie that's kind of like Highlander meets
the Matrix meets the Boston Red Sox. It's Infinite. I'm Andrew Jupin. Stephen Sadek.
Eric Siska. Nihilist, Chris Cabin. And we hate movies.
Hello, everyone. Welcome to We Hate Movies. Thank you for tuning into the fine program, as always. That's right. This week, we don't even know what's going on. It's fucking infinite.
this is another entry in our
worst of the previous year month. This is directed
by Antoine Fugwa, a guy who
had some bangers back in the day
and I don't know how he keeps getting work
right now. A singular banger
I think. It's training day, right?
Replacement killers. Oh yeah, I guess
that's pretty good. His feature film debut
and I think after training day
it's a bunch of not great
stuff. Although that McNevison 7 remake
has its moments.
You're missing bait
Jamie Fox versus the grandest of all pedophiles,
Doug Hutchinson.
The grandest of all pedophiles.
He's the head one.
Like you kill him and they all go away.
Once he died,
I'm saying he's been killed.
He's Dracula.
That's when Epstein was exposed.
Just, you know, Chris,
we've recorded three things without you.
We did last week,
Space Jam, you had some internet issues.
We did a couple of Patreon situations.
And just to come back,
coming in hot with the grandest of all pedophiles.
Welcome back, dude.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Yeah, yeah.
Don Cheadle sent me to the fucking Netherverse.
And I'm back.
I'm back now.
Can I tell you that when I was sitting watching this film Infinite last night, I was sitting there going, man, it really sucks that Space Jam, a new legacy makes way more sense than this movie.
Oh, 100%.
It is, it is, I have a real soft spot for an action.
blockbuster thing of a jig
that makes no good
sense at all. It just
it tickles me just the right way when there's
anytime, here's the thing, anytime you start
your movie with
an opening narration that says
there are among
us or to every generation
you're like, oh dude, you are on shaky
ground right now. Steve,
are you a believer or a nihilist?
Dude, how could you not be a nihilus? It's 2022.
We're doing this remotely.
you're just a root infrutia for in this
speaking of I want to just before we get too into it
one of these days oh I thought you were going to hit play real quick
I didn't have the fucking button ready no no no I wish
it's hard to do that for movies released on streaming only by the way
good move paramount good move but there needs to be like
a special session of Congress just some hearings
at some point yeah to just get
to the bottom of who is doing this to chew a tell edge of for who is really like keeping this man out of good movies and making him do this like who's is it a grand conspiracy i want fucking people in chairs under oath to talk to me about this we got to get to the bottom of a dude i think you're totally right i mean it's just astounding to me that like a man of this great talent is in this movie with this beard ladies and gentlemen oh my god yes he looks like um
What was Jeff Bridges' character in Ironman?
Oh, Obeda Estain?
Yeah.
He does.
He really does.
But I mean, like, if you go to his, like, known for on IMDB, one of them that's there is fucking the film
2012.
Oh, no.
It's been going on forever, dude.
I was just looking at his IMDB real quick.
He was also in the old guard in 2020, another centuries old reincarnation type of thing.
Yep.
yeah which is like a better version of this movie yeah i mean that movie's not great but it's much
better than this yes well this movie is uh you know you hear about it a lot that a lot of action
movie specifically and especially now that you cannot just make a movie it has to be a franchise
starter sure yeah the idea of a movie that feels like your the movie is starting as it ends
yeah this is like the epitome of that i felt like i didn't understand what was going on
even vaguely until like five minutes away from credits
where I was like I kind of get what you're talking about almost
but this was also awful.
It's like you just when you think you understand what's going on
they're like oh by the way Treadway you can do magic
and you're like well hold on.
Come on God come the fuck on.
It's like here's what this movie was like for me Steve
watching it. It was like you fucking fall down the stairs
right like you I don't know if anyone out there's ever falling down this
I'm taking a fall down a stair here and there in my day.
Tons of them.
You fall down the stairs.
You're like, wow.
I just fell down the stairs.
And then you take a step back and you fall down another set of stairs.
I did that exact thing in the, what was that, in the East Village?
We went to some party.
Oh, the infamous get him out of here.
They got rid of me.
I was almost certain Eric Siska, my very good friend.
My dear, lovely friend, was dead.
I looked at the bottom of this staircase.
I was like, oh, Eric's dead.
Yeah, that's a steep fall too.
Yes, it was.
It was just like, yeah, like once you thought you got a handle on something like, wow, glad I lived through falling down those stairs, this movie like gives you another detail like you just said, Steve, magic, and I fell down the stairs again.
It's really something.
We, I mean, so this movie is theoretically about two groups of not really immortals, like you can every, people who get, there's about 500 people on Earth for some reason, who.
who can be reincarnated and remember their reincarnation.
Correct.
And kind of keep those personality traits.
It gets activated in youth like an X-Man situation theoretically.
I think we mentioned puberty.
He kind of sets it off.
Yes.
That's pretty cool.
And there's two groups.
There's the believers, as Chris said, who want to use their special abilities,
which really aren't even that special.
I guess, you know, I mean, depending on, you know,
your special abilities to better the world, the nihilists who are.
are sick of reincarnation and just want the world to end.
Yes, which I understand completely,
because I'm there without the centuries of lives.
You know, what, like, science fiction property has done this already,
and it's, like, way better and not really complicated at all,
is fucking Star Trek with the race of aliens known as the Trills,
which is what, like, Dax was on DS9.
Oh, right, right.
It's like, you are joined with, like, this alien.
and symbiote thing that's inside you
but you're remembering all the
other beings that have hosted the symbiote
and you can then take on
their abilities. They're also doing it now on Star Trek
Discovery. There's a character that is joined
with a trill and they
are able to like, you know, like one of their
previous people knew how to play
the cello really well so this character they can
play the cello really. It's like
it's totally like just like, yep
you remember your lives and that's it. There's no
fucking secret cabals. There's no like
good versus evil of that. You know what I mean?
it's like this whole like there's this like the the fucking the battle of light and dark basically
is so tired well you would think you know usually when you start getting hair on your balls
you stop thinking you're a cowboy and an astronaut but apparently in this world you're like
no i was a cowboy and an astronaut and a samurai well i guess that's why i fucking they pump
Marky Mark with 30 volts
dude just really just shock the shit out of
this kid. Before we really
dig in I got one big question about this movie
it starts in well
I guess I have a few but it starts in Mexico
city right? Yes
with Heinrich Treadway
who he ends up being the
reincarnation of and I don't
remember if this was mentioned
or if there was a like a superimposed
text on the screen saying it's
in 1985 but the stuff I'm seeing
online says he dies
in 1985, which would mean
Mark Wahlberg would be born
in 1985, which means he's playing
a younger character than me
at 36 years old.
You are correct, sir. You are correct.
He's 50 playing
36, and
he looks like Troy McClure
talking to Miss Piggy when he gets
on the lines on his nose. Yes, dude.
Why is that Muppet made out of leather?
I was
watching it last night. And I
couldn't, I don't know. I'm sure I've seen
something here or there, but I don't know what the most recent Mark Wahlberg movie I've seen
before this was. But Jesus, man, he is looking like an old football. It's probably mile 22,
which we did a year or two ago, which is my God. That, I mean, that is actually kind of better
than this. I got to say, it is, it is. Mile 22. I text, I know, I tweeted something about
infinite and someone replied with something about Mile 22 and I literally Googled it to see what
it was. And I was like, oh, we did an episode on it. Well, I think happened is I think Dylan O'Brien
plays Treadway in the beginning. He is Treadway. And like, I kind of think they did a flipsy.
Like, Mark Wahlberg should have been this guy at the beginning. Yeah. Yeah. Fighting Rupert
friend and doing that whole thing. And then Dylan O'Brien is the young guy because Dylan O'Brien is
about that age, me even younger. I don't know. Yeah, I think he's probably younger. We should say because
we're all old and we don't watch it. He plays styles on that.
newish teen wolf show.
We get it. None of us watch it. Let's get on with our lives.
He was the maze runner.
Oh, is that right.
Those movies don't make any sense.
There are a bunch of secret movies, too.
I refuse to believe that those exist.
I know they do, but like, what is that shit?
Apparently, Chris Evans was supposed to be this guy.
Was supposed to be Mark Wahlberg, but then he dropped out.
They're like, who else do we know from Boston?
And then, you know, that's how that goes.
You just have to. I'm sorry, you have to.
like the Mexico City
section, like during the events of Roma
or something to make Mark
Walberg the right age.
You're totally right, dude. Yeah, we need that
fucking, you know, the protests in the streets
in the 70s, I think it was.
But they're, yeah, you need that.
But they're doing slippery shit, though. I mean, I don't know
where that 1985 number came from either because I was
watching it, because I remember the first time I watched us
being totally confused when this takes place
because this opening action sequence
doesn't have any period to it
whatsoever. I thought it was modern.
Yes, of course.
Maybe are they trying to fake you out with that?
They say the title card is Mexico City colon the last life.
Like whatever that means.
So they don't say 1985.
You just know that this was Mark's last life.
But like, yeah, say it's, I got nothing from the 80s here.
Right.
Maybe a car.
No, it's the 1985 thing is if you looked at the credits, Rupert Friend is credited as Bathurst, 1985.
Oh, whatever.
That's the only, that's the only way.
I was able to tell
because I was looking
to the cast list on IMDB
and also you know what
Rupert friend I think is a really good actor
You barely see his face
full on in this movie
There's got to be deleted scene somewhere
Yeah
Because like this
Because what happens is
Dylan O'Brien is driving
Top Speed talking to people
He's healing himself
With a wound in his stomach
Which we'll get to
And he's talking to his other agents
Which is this couple
And they're like
what and then she's just like
you gotta protect the egg
the egg the egg the egg
and I'm like what
dude and like testament to like
the shit editing in this movie
like you have no idea
what the spatial relations are
in this scene
like Dylan O'Brien's driving this car
he just fought Rupert friend
on like construction scaffolding
and then this other couple in this other
you have no idea where anybody is
I was like are they even
both in Mexico City
where is this other car?
I think they're in fucking Baltimore
honestly
they just cut this shit so badly
and like then they like
they crash and they die during this thing
they're screaming about the egg of course
but we don't even know what happens
like this thing ends without us really knowing
fully what happened to O'Brien
and fucking Bathurst
right he does this thing where like
you know they get they get God
and then he's like well it's all down to me
and he drives and does this cool
Tokyo drift move which I don't even think
you can do it with cars in the 1980s
flips himself towards a construction site
and lands with his really cool sword
and that's like quotation marks
and then you cut to Mark Wahlberg present day
why give a guy a third interview
if you're just trying to embarrass him
is my question I dude yeah
I don't know what's going on here
I think this the guy who owns this restaurant
like Walberg is interviewing to be like the
Mater D at this like snooty restaurant or whatever
I think this guy just wants to fuck with it.
Yeah, 100%.
He's got that much time.
He's just an abelist maybe, I guess.
I don't know.
And he wants a lawsuit so bad.
He really, it's like, it's one thing to give somebody two interviews and be like, oh, you know, I did a background check.
That guy assaulted somebody.
I'm not touching that with a 10 foot pole.
But instead, he brings him in.
He's like, so it says here you're schizophrenic and you like to beat people up?
And it's like, okay, so then I'm clearly going to see you for.
but this was the most interesting scene of the movie for me is the restaurant interview
made me give me vibes of pig and I was just going to say that oh my god yeah I want like a pig
of verse not whatever this is supposed to be yo bro is this what you really want to do bro
didn't you want to open a pub bro didn't you want to open a pub bro just for white people oh no okay
not that part not that part sorry sorry bro that's what I want
You serve this fru-frou shit.
You should be serving wall burgers.
That's your passion.
That's what you wanted.
I am looking for this pig,
and we are going to this underground chef's only fighting ring.
You gave my pig to some meth heads, bro?
By the way, we didn't mention real quick.
Do you ever look in the mirror surprised by what's there?
Yeah, of course.
Oh, dude.
Yeah, every, every day.
Not surprise.
Disappointed.
You ever have dreams that feel like kind of real?
Dude, him doing this narration, man.
I mean, you have him like recording this on a phone, in a car, in a parking lot while he is waiting to get on a private jet somewhere.
This is some of the worst narration I have ever heard.
You hear beeping in the background.
He's like, he stops for it.
Go around.
I'm filming a movie here.
Welcome to Taco Bell.
Can I take your order?
No, yeah, number two.
I don't let a Mexican touch it.
Yeah, I know that's counterintuitive.
Anyway, you ever have a dream so real?
You ever thought it was like a memory, dude?
Dude, you ever think about that?
We're out of Chalupus, sir.
Oh, you got, I'm going to beat someone's ass.
I'm going to hate crime you.
I'll pull up to the second window.
Dude, we have this.
This, another thing about the chase scene, really.
quickly. Sorry, but like back to
Mexico City. This like chase
through like these tunnels
and he's like
he uses the car
to kick a brick through the
windows of two other cars
and it's like we're
watching it and Chelsea's like that's stupid
that's stupid. That's stupid
like it kept getting dumber
but I mean like again he's just reincarnated
like I mean I guess this one because he does
this is in this scene and they show it
a couple times it's like he puts his hand out the
car and like starts
manipulating reality and I'm like
how and what and
why? Well that's because
I think in a past life dude he was a wizard
bro
yeah you have to be
you have to be in this for a little bit
before you get the finger magic
then you can do finger magic
but yeah so he gets his interview
and you find out that he
is dying of schizophrenic
and assaulted a customer because he
was messing with a waitress
And they're like, well, he's grabbing a ass, bro.
And it's like, well, you will call you.
And it's like, okay.
And then his threatening thing about the guy's well-moisterized hands.
Oh, yeah.
Also, it's like, this is not for this movie.
Nope.
Right?
Like, because he's got lines like, my illness isn't an issue.
You know, it's shit like that.
And it's just like, get this out of here.
Get this absolutely out of here.
I know that people have mental problems.
It's a real thing.
thing that we need to destigmatize
even further in this world. But like,
get this out of my Mark Wahlberg
movie immediately. Because I guess if he
just knew and was just like
forging his swords and stuff,
he would just be Russell Nash
from the Highlander, you know,
Christopher Lambert's
fake persona. But I don't understand
like why even
involve yourself with this kind of hot
to my like you don't want to be dealing with
this. Why just he's special? Like he has
all these powers and stuff. Why isn't that
just the reason. Well, it's also confusing
because it's like, yes,
I agree with you, Andrew. Like, yeah, it should
be in this movie. It is a hot to molly, Chris.
But it's this thing where, like, you're
even going further because then it's like,
oh, no, he doesn't have a mental problem.
These pills are actually
suppressing his God-given
whatever. And it's like, well, that's not a
great message either. No, no, no,
it isn't. I mean, that's, but that's
like this weird, like,
the pills that we're medicating our children with
are, you know, dampening, they're
potential to be reincarnated superhero.
I mean, this is what the guy from,
this is what Scoot McNary thinks is going on and come on, come on.
You know what I mean?
You're right.
Every schizophrenic person is a reincarnated magic user.
Exactly.
I mean, and sometimes it's really good to take your medicine and be,
you know,
and all that stuff.
It's very difficult to do that.
It's a hard thing to do.
It's a good thing to do.
And it's like, no, no, no, dude.
The magic is in sight.
For real.
oh my god but yeah so like after he bottoms out of this job interview this is where you get the
are the things you just know how to do and it's him just thinking about forging these Japanese
Japanese swords and when I tell you okay I did not know what this movie was and every time it came
up on like our scheduling sheets and whatever like we're doing infinite infinite and I was like
I keep forgetting what this movie is up until last night
watching it. And then when I see him
making this sword, I was
I was just like, oh God.
It's like what have I
just, it's like when in movies and TV,
when someone steps on a landmine
and they know that they stepped
on the landmine, but they're, you know, they've yet
to take the kill step. I was just
like, oh, oh, sorts, he's making a sword.
Oh, here we go. The stupidest thing about the sword
other than the fact that is Mark Wahlberg
making it, is that
he uses the whole idea he has.
here is he's going to use this to sell to a drug dealer friend he has who is going to give him his
pills. Why not, A, go to a pawn shop. You would get your money pretty easily there or more likely
go on forged and fire. Win it all the way. You're going to, you'll do a hunt. You'll do so well.
You know you're going to knock it out of the park. When Toby Jones is introduced later in the movie,
he says like this is made unlike any other sword for like a thousand years. He could have fooled Southerzby's
with shit like this
and that's real money.
And you know what?
A movie about a sword forger
that knows how to make it
like the ancient ways
and he's making them
in like the present day
and they're all knockoffs or whatever
that's a way cooler
more interesting
and watchable movie
than what they're doing in this shit.
And also like make him
just like this underground guy
don't give me the pig scene at all.
You know what I mean?
Like I don't need the restaurant
whatever like he's just he's like
he's an underground sword dealer
and that's how he's
gets his pills. And that would, I guess, make more sense. Like, oh, I guess he started tinkering
with this stuff a while back. And in this, it's just like, I'm a restaurant manager.
And for some reason, I know how to make swords, bro. Exactly. Just, like, just think about
that. Think like, you think in your head, I think I could probably make Katana pretty well out of
nowhere. And then you get all the materials. And then you just do it. Like, it's, it's, it's
insane. Forging fire tells you, dude, foraging is dangerous. Okay. So you,
don't want to do it unless you know what you're doing, guys.
So I got two questions about the sword stuff, sort-related questions here.
One, he mentions to the guy in the job interview, he's like,
rent's coming, bro.
I got to pay my rent or whatever.
And like, so that leads me to believe, like, he's in some, like, you know, kind of
small apartment or something.
Where is he finding the space to forge swords?
Yes.
And the materials.
And the materials, all of that shit.
Yeah, like, that shit ain't free.
And you're talking about you can't pay the rent.
Like, come on.
and the other question, Steve,
what is the ultimate prize you win
if you win forging fire?
I think it's 10 grand.
Okay.
Yeah, that's nothing to sneeze at.
No, totally.
I mean, maybe you get called back.
And also, like, you're Mark Wahlberg,
you're in shape.
It's going to be you and four,
three fucking insurrectionists that are way out of shape.
That are just going to need oxygen halfway through.
You totally got this, dude.
And after he wins one, he's probably going to win.
He could be in Forged and Fire legends.
Yeah.
Also, Steve, you are making a great point.
We need, like, some sort of website that fancies themselves, you know, listical experts to put out an article that's like, these are the, all of the forged and fire former contestants that participated in Jan 6.
It's all of them.
It's just, it's the only line.
All of them.
I am shocked there wasn't a single, like, arm missing off of a capital police officer.
but so he goes to
David Ayers
the Joker's Hangout
by the way
absolutely this shit
it's totally Jared Letto
vibes off of this drug dealer
and it's just like why
what
this crusty white dude
and a room full of like
he's got these
he's got all this muscle
and he's got a babe
she was his queen
he was his Kirk King
etc.
It looks like
where it's also like a little bit
of a tweaker pad too
sure sure
Like, she looks pretty out of it, shit.
Ronnie, most of it.
Ronnie keeps on asking common if he wants to fuck his girlfriend.
Yo, can we do this sword, bro?
Oh, no, no.
You want to fuck my girlfriend?
Oh, no.
But I brought, I brought the sword.
You asked for a sword.
I got you a sword.
And, like, this whole thing's going on.
And Walberg's like, all right, like, made you the sword.
Now, you know, give me my pills or whatever.
And, like, so this bodyguard dude.
is counting out all the pills
and we've got like
this guy's asking him
like random trivia questions
about like what's the capital
of Burkina Faso
and yada yada
this guy knows everything
there's also a
Hattori Hanzo
named after you got to do it dude
and then so like
Walberg gets the bag
and he looks at it and he's like
yo bro we said 60 pills
for your sword I only see 55
and they like kind of get into it
I guess
and yeah and this guy's also
like, oh, my girl's looking at you. You want to fuck that dude? I'm going to cut her arm off. And it's like, now he has to do super action stuff here. And he like takes the sword from the guy. And, you know, this is kind of an action scene, I guess, right? It was something. I could. It was something, dude. It was like this scene started and I swear to God. Like, I just looked down at my laptop to be like, fight scene commences. And like I looked back up and he had fallen onto that car. Like, it was over with.
Yeah, because he just kind of escapes and then, like, as the cops are coming for some reason, it's like, well, he cuts some dude's hand off or fingers off, which is pretty cool.
Oh, yeah, this is the bodyguard.
He's like, oh, man, cut my fucking fingers off.
It's pretty funny, actually.
And then no one can-
Those are my dittling fingers.
Oh, boy.
Diddling out pills, of course, for drug deals.
But then, you know, he just runs away and no one can shoot him.
I wonder if that's part of the reincarnation thing.
yeah it's bullets just fly by you by the way that's how it works
but after he drops out of that car that's when we meet
Toby Jones as Porter and like
you know here's another guy
that more or less rocks
and you see him in shit like barbarian sound studio
you know even the fucking movie where he played Truman Capote
is a terrible
but like what I think like him and Chewettel
Like, they just pissed off the wrong people at dinner parties or something.
I don't know.
The Chilatel thing I'm never going to understand.
I know he was supposed to make the fellow cootie movie for like ever with McQueen.
And I think he got really depressed that that never went through.
There was a good interview about it.
I remember.
But like, the thing about this is with Jones, I think it's literally like, you know, sometimes you just do need a seventh car.
I mean, really, like, he will do,
we make fun of Chuelo.
Jones will do anything.
Oh, sure.
Because he's also, like, that's the thing, he's like,
he's just almost, not a heavy,
certainly not because he's like a tiny little man,
but like he's got real presents and he's British.
So you can kind of slot him in a lot of things.
Like, he's doing this role.
Like, he's, I mean, like,
and this movie is really poor,
so it doesn't even factor in this way,
but he's sort of like the Professor X of the Infinites,
I'm guessing.
is that right
I mean
I mean
I'm not I'm not
I'm not criticizing you
I'm just saying that
because like literally
I don't know
what his role is
in this movie
no idea
like he seems to be like
higher up
because like
what you might call it
this lady Sophie Cuxon
calls him
and she's like
oh they found a sword
in New York
that's you know
looks like
you know
really special
and he's like
oh wow
this must be
is it tread way
and like
that's kind of it for a while until
how lazy is your script that you're like
you're watching Highlander and you'll be like okay
then they find the sword and they date it to a certain
time and people are like oh wow that's impressive
and then they well no they don't interview
they don't bring them down to the police station but like
that's what it is it's like we're just doing the Highlander again
but like you're at like the cool thing about Highlander
is if this was Highlander Mark Wahlberg
would just be going to a castle and fucking some lady
and I would have enjoyed it.
But no, I have to see Toby Jones
tell me that this guy
is the special guy
even though the movie
has already told you it.
And it's also, you realize here,
it's weird because like,
talking about like when the hell this movie takes place,
the tech in this movie is like
they are sometimes doing futuristic stuff
but they're not like Toby Jones
has this big like console
where he's looking at the sword
and analyzing it like totally digitally.
And then Chewetel later in this movie, like towards the end, where he's got like those minority report, like finger gloves thing.
What the fuck is that?
It's the secret society, just they have advanced technology because they've been around forever.
They know everything, like how he can make a sword out of nothing because he just knows everything.
Or are they setting it in the future to explain away his fucking weirdness of being a 50 year old, 36 year old?
I think it's just finger magic.
I think, you know, the gloves were just there for comfort more than that.
that anything like that i think it's literally just finger magic they all finger magic eric it is it's
so weird because yes you we do because we wanted to be cool right with with a capital c so it's like
oh there's got to be really cool like uh sci-fi shit in this movie but then like set it in the future
and or just say like we have unlimited fortunes at our disposal and our technology is far beyond
those of those non-reincarnated people you have to say one of those things i mean i i get what you're
saying, but, like, I don't want anything else explained because this movie is still going to be
explaining itself for another an hour and a half. Yeah. I mean, if we go by, Mark Wahlberg is like
just a fucking old dude now and we're told in this movie that he was reincarnated in 1985. So this is
like 2035-ish, right? Mark's in like his fucking 50s, right? So like, yeah, he's 305, 2040s. Oh,
he's 50 on the dot. All right. So, yeah, like 2035. I guess. I guess.
maybe that tech's going to be around then.
It's entirely possible, right?
Like, who knows?
For prosperity, I'll say he was born in 1971
and you're listening to this in the future.
Do the math.
Yeah, bro, I'm 50.
But when you plan to live to 150,
that's kind of young still.
I'm a pup.
That's true.
I age in wookie years, pro.
Yo, I'm going to be as old as Yoda, bro.
I wake up every morning.
I do hate speech and I do 3,000 push-up.
and I believe in God now
so you can't play me
I apologize
I apologize to the Pope
bro to about Ted the movie
I was sorry for all the dirty jokes
in my bare movies bro
apparently that's true
it's on Wikipedia that Mark Wahlberg
apologized to Pope Francis
over the vulgar humor of Ted
and I just imagine the Pope's like
what
what do you mean
the teddy bear a curse
the teddy bear a curse
and fuck
or did the Pope see it
and then give it a bad review
dude
dude that's what I need
is the Pope's letter box
by the way
oh yeah
so this Ted and Ted too
definitely one of the half stars
they're all one star
and ever reviewed
is just one word
sinful
oh he didn't give
any stars
to Ben a Benedetti
he just said he just logged that he watched it what does that mean yep yeah no that was just a sly log dude
he puts a heart on it that's the one movie he puts a heart on it makes sense though because it's like
one of those things like oh you know post frances is really progressive he's got a letterboxed oh but then
he just came out against childless couples ah oh this guy just pulls me in every different
direction uh so it turns out walberg uh his character here evan macaulay yikes uh gets uh gets he does
get arrested and Chewetel
comes in, he's Bathurst
and he comes into this interrogation
room. Can I ask a question?
Yes. What is this accent supposed to
be? It's Gomez Adams.
Chewetel? Yes. Yeah, I think
it's a Gomez. Adams.
The Babushka,
Bacoli. Ha, ha, ha.
Mortisha, we are nihilists.
Is that a Highlander thing as well? Because
they're like, oh yeah, we didn't, you know, everyone's just
got weird accents in that movie because we,
have lived forever and we've been other, you know, you know, nationalities.
Yeah, I guess it's like all the other, you know, lifetimes he's lived are like coming into
his brain being like, no, you used to talk like this. No, you used to talk like this. Now you
used to talk like this. And that's why everyone thinks I'm schizophrenic.
Wednesday, stop waterboarding your brother and waterboard me so I may see God. Right. So that is like
a sexual thrill for these fellas is getting waterboarded.
He wants to see
There's one scene
Who cares
But there's one scene
Where like his number two
Who's this like tall lady
That's not Elizabeth Debecky
No she politely declined
It was like find another six footer
For your movie
So she's like
Her is number two
And she's like oh Mark Wahlberg
Is moving on the whatever
And he's getting waterboarded
By some other lady
And then he's like
Yes excellent
Everything is falling into place
Now more
waterboarding. And if I
may offer a detail
that I'm pretty sure wasn't just me
hitting the pen too hard.
He's, because the woman is
putting a mask on and everything.
Correct me if I'm wrong. He's being waterboarding
with gasoline. Yes, indeed. Indeed,
he is. Yeah, okay.
Yeah. I saw Love Liza
last night.
The Pope rated Love Liza
two stars.
He's not so bad. Oh, he's sort of...
Oh, you hover the gas.
That's so sad.
I come out against the childless couples and the gas hafers.
Don't you?
RV plain and boat culture is bad.
You know, I don't always, you know, I don't know.
I usually side with the big man up there, but taking Hoffman like that, you know.
Real rift between me and the big man.
His son is okay in the licorice pizza.
Very good.
Very promising.
I love Mario the Pope
Pope Mario
Yeah boy I wish there was Pope Mario dude
Why not? That guy would be cooler
But I do but yeah
So like you're you go into your boss's office
He's getting water poured with gasoline
You just got to
Yeah dude I'm on it
I go
Wow wow wow wow
Woof that guy is really weird
But he comes in and he
He's like
Ah yes McCauley interesting
And he gives him
all these items like which of these are yours and it's like and which apparently i read this is the
this is the test they give to the dolly law that's correct that's correct yo bro i used to be the
i'm the dolly llama now isn't that the ultimate fucking irony yes i got these from your native
of Boston, here is a half-crushed Sam Adams' cans.
Here is a half butt of a cigarette.
If they sincerely came out and said the next Dalai Lama after this one was some kid in Boston,
honestly, the entire church, their whole religion would crumble to the ground.
Yeah, it's a pack of cools that's crunched.
Oh, dude, I used to, you're right, I totally used to smoke menthols.
A crumpled up Dunkin' Donuts bag.
oh this dropkick murphy's t-shirt with cigarette burns all over it i'm feeling something bro i'm remembering
bro it's so sad man so like before i don't know they can continue talking about these trinkets a fucking
car drives through the wall yeah this is the blues brothers portion of the film you get a lot
of information here that Macaulay, yes, was
in, uh, was
institutionalized a couple of times. He
cut open his own, he
scarred his chest by writing look inside.
Very important.
And he's also, there's a lot of
talk about like, I remember you
from the second Punic war.
Oh God. Oh, right.
We do have, because the other thing
you see kind of throughout this movie
until he like, you know,
until Walberg's character is seeing
the full picture here, he gets these
like glimpses of like these
flashbacks of these past lives or whatever
one of them is definitely like him
in some sort of
like ancient-ish
like central or South American
looking situation
and like every time
one of those happen specifically you have to laugh
that it's Mark Wahlberg in this way
absolutely because you hope
they all had the same voice
the original guy was making the sword
I want him to like
oh bro I made a sword
If only I could go back in time
and hate crime myself
Oh shit bro
It's pretty cool living during the Incan Empire
Oh fuck bro
Was I an apocalyptic
Oh my God
I guess I have been to Japan
Shit
But yeah
This you know
This car drives through
It's this woman Nora
I think is the character's name
She's the
She's Roxy in the Kingsman movie
she's like the one lady they allow
in the movie
She looks like a cross between
Rhonda Rousey and Captain
America's beard
Oh yeah
Whatever her name is
Yeah I know you're talking about Emily
Something or other
Yeah that's yeah yeah
But yes no she looks
And she's not fantastic
As an actress
This is a
You went through the entire checklist
Everyone said no
And then you cast this woman
I think both Rhonda Rousey
and the beard said, no.
I think they were the two above her.
Are you talking about the agent Carter?
Yeah.
No, no, no.
Agent Carter's daughter.
Yes, Asian Carter's daughter.
Yeah, okay.
I'm going to look at this up right now.
I remember Agent Carter.
I don't remember the daughter.
I know they'll be killed in certain circles.
The daughter comes into play and I think the second Captain America.
Yeah, she's a winter soldier and her name is, here it comes.
Come on.
Blah, da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-ha.
Lee Van Camp
would you guess that
Emma Lee Van Camp
Oh Emily Van Cleef
Yeah Lee Van Cleef for sure
And Lee Van Cleef as Peggy Carter's daughter
Come on Steve
We're going to go to the movies tonight
And we're going to make out
Or maybe granddaughter or something
I just watched here's the thing I've been secretly doing
Because it's like not great
But it's they're 30 minutes and it's fine
I've been watching that what if
none of it is good
and I just watched like the zombie
one where she's like kind of in it
for a second
sometimes you just don't need to make a TV show
What is the zombie one?
It's like Bruce Banner
comes back the story is Bruce Banner
comes back to Earth
Like a zombie
He comes back to Earth
because he's like
what they do in the movies
like he blasts back to Earth
trying to warn of the impending invasion
or whatever and when he gets to Earth
a zombie apocalypse that has had
happened. And so like most of the Avengers also have turned into zombies except for like a
select few. And that's just what it is. There was a Marvel comic line of zombies. I don't know
if it's the same story, but that's, that's what it is. And it's not great. Anyway.
But so like you, she rescues him and she's got the funniest part about this movie is this
so they're called themselves the infinites. They have this like branding and all this stuff.
And, like, she's in this supercar.
She's like, now you have to drive.
And she pushes a button and the steering wheel goes on,
she pushes, I'm sorry, the infinite button.
And it goes the steering wheel goes on his side of the car.
He's like, oh, great, the steering wheel just moved.
That's normal.
And it's like, you are not this character.
You're right, Eric.
He's way too old to be this sort of like puppy dog kind of like sarcastic.
Like, I'm too young for this shit.
For a guy like Dylan O'Brien's age or like a Tom Holland or C, you know, Chris Evans.
Like literally that was it.
And because it does, it's also the kind of humor is very marvely like, oh, guess that happened.
Yes, exactly.
Uh-oh.
It would be awesome.
It would be awesome if throughout this movie, every time he was like shocked about something, it was just Mark Wahlberg like, oh, oh.
Now you're driving the car.
they found your sword
uh oh that's a great catchphrase for
evan mcculley you're going to drive this motorcycle onto a plane
uh oh
this norseman is going to give up his life for you
uh oh he's dead now
oh my fucking god this movie it sucks man
so what is the fuck is the egg by the way
we're talking about this egg thing
Yeah. What is it?
It's a McGuffin for sure, but...
Yeah, so Chuettoll has made this...
What's a Bathurst, has made this big egg.
Well, it looks bigger when it's in use.
In actuality, it's very small, which will come into play in a little bit here.
Also, like when you're shopping for sex toys, dude, that's the exact.
When you're looking at vibrating eggs, you're like, that looks a little too big to fit in my ass.
But then when you get it home, we're like, oh, it's not as big as it looked on the website.
That's why Bathurst made the egg is because he had tried.
all the store-bought vibrating eggs.
And he's like, these are not getting me off.
These fucking things-Tisha, I'm going to do it myself.
So I'm going to make the best fucking sex egg there ever has been.
It's going to end the planet.
From all of his memories of being a sex toy merchant in Venice all those years ago.
Is that what that plays about?
Yes, it is.
Back in 1900s.
Yeah, that's why it got so wet there.
God.
That's awful.
but no
the egg
destroys all life
very
it's interesting
when it kills
everybody
they kind of
drift off
in particles
like some movie
some movie
that was
a small hit
snap
a blink
yeah
oh
fuck
fuck
I'm forgetting
it guys
I forgot
the movie
I forgot the story
uh oh
Oh my god
Hold on I'm sorry
Now you're saying that Mark Wahlberg
Would be the young plucky Spider-Man
Yes I think that's what I was getting at there
Yeah I'm just
Oh my God I'm so young
You guys are so old
Remember that old movie
The Empire Strikes Back
No Mark
You really shouldn't want to have sexual tension
With Aunt May
No you really don't want to have that
You also don't want to have it with Zendaya
though so bad
we're really in trouble here
during that fucking car chase though
because Chihuetel's coming after them
and this whole thing
they cause some big
like car explosion
and Walberg like skids their car
through a fireball
and like there's cars flying everywhere
speaking of the Blues Brothers but like
this is some of like the worst
CGI car pile on
I've seen a really long time
the effects are not there with this movie
the action is just so
nothing like you know the best
the best that that should be the
exciting part right and Anton Fuqua
theoretically is a good action director
but not not here
no no I mean because you're not
you're not given the resources
to make real action I'm sorry it's all just
cartoon shit and your computer budget
is terrible but that's the thing with Fuqua is
I just don't think he's made
supernatural is not his back
you need to get him in a western
you need to get him on the streets
I need like just like
like shootout violence is his thing
I would say keep him away from the Western as well
that magnificent seven remade was not very good
that's fair
it's got its moments but overall
yeah it's not great
but she
so in this like I think it's maybe
after they drive through the fireball
she is further explaining to him
because they know that the audience isn't going to get it
so they make the protagonist
keep not understanding it either
and she's just like
do you ever think about destiny and he's like destiny
nobody's got time for destiny which is
fuck dude mark walberg should never say the word destiny
in a movie but she's like you're the same
person over different lives you can forge a sword
because you were a blacksmith and I'm like
it was the one time where I was like
okay I guess I did also need that
because this is kind of around when I started
understanding the movie yeah
Cool if like
when he's
eventually reborn
his spoiler alert
at the
stinger scene
at the end
like if that kid
can be like
oh I could
I could manage a restaurant
really well
man I know
I know the
the entire front line
of the 2008
New England Patriots
I can make
hand stretch noodles
not bad
all right
nice little town
I got here
but we are
told that, you know, the nihilists want
the world, and the believers
are trying to leave humanity
better off than they found it goes.
Doing a fucking shit job for centuries.
Yes.
Fucking it up left and right, honestly.
So he goes on the plane because he's like,
fuck it, man. I might as well,
you know, something, something.
He's like, oh, I don't believe in reincarnation.
It's just, it's the, uh, the philosophical
equivalent of better luck next time.
Any of these jokes working for you?
Oh, God.
And it's like, because it's impossible for him to be snappy.
No, it's not.
He can't deliver, I guess what this is, they're hoping this was supposed to be, which is like ratat-tat-tat kind of dialogue.
Yeah.
And I'm sorry, you're making a movie with Mark Wahlberg, folks.
What he says any of this, it doesn't sound like he even knows what he's saying.
Yes, that's absolutely true.
I think he has a fundamental non-understanding of what this movie is about.
If you ask Mark Walker.
Welcome to the club, dude.
No, I know.
But if you ask Mark Wahlberg.
In an interview, like, please explain, you know, the story of the film Infinite to me.
He would be like, ah, uh-oh.
It's about believing in yourself, bro.
You know, and about, you know, hope is what it's about.
Getting up and staying on that hustle, bro.
Rise and grind infinitely, I believe.
Around here, I think, is the absolute worst line of this movie because they get in a plane
and she takes him to
was I looking at this right?
It's like a hidden island or some sure
whatever it is and he goes
he and because this
what's amazing about this is this line
and for folks at home who didn't get it
we will clarify here what we're doing
he says to her
it's a long way from Arthur Avenue
Steve Sadek explain why this is insane
because we should say also
in this movie he is doing his
damnedest to flatten out
his accent.
He's like it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's, it's like, it's, a long way to Arthur Avenue means, uh, he's from the Bronx.
That's, that's, he's a famous neighborhood, neighborhood in the Bronx. And so that is giving you a high sign.
And, you know, the movie takes place in New York, Vancouver, but it takes place in New York and the early going.
So he's. And also those, from the Bronx, but it's possible. I mean, it doesn't.
obviously necessarily mean this
but there's also a good shot
if that's the thing that he's referencing
he's also the movie's telling you
he's even the you know I guess with the last
name no but like I was also like
is this movie trying to say like he
is Italian no no I think
you could be Irish from the Bronx for sure
like you could just yeah no I know but like the specific of like
I think Arthur Avenue I think like the Italian
restaurants oh for sure the markets
blah blah but just overall
just like the idea of him being from the Bronx is hysteria
I feel like the New York Irish don't sound
as distinct as the Boston Irish
and just set it in Boston
because a lot of these streets we're
using for New York are so not New York
I would believe them more as Boston.
It's aggressively
not New York City. Yes, movie.
Again, it looks like Maryland for most of it.
I don't know what the fuck is going on.
Like, it drove me crazy, honestly.
I like, and he could have, from Arthur Avenue,
you could have an Irish father
and an Italian mother.
Yes, that's also definitely, yeah.
two greatest alcoholics
bloodlines together, finally.
While we're quickly talking about New York geography,
I know someone is going apeshit
because we're actually doing this.
And I apologize, sir, but imagine
if butt-fuck Montana,
they made the movie about your hometown
and they got it all wrong.
Imagine how you'd feel.
You'd feel really bad.
They don't make movies about my area, sir.
Well, maybe they should.
But-Fuck Montana, population two.
one's getting the butt fucked
and the other one is being
is doing the butt fucking
yeah turns out it doesn't make more people
but it is pleasurable
it's a ton of fun dude
absolutely
I mean he is
you know we're finding out
all about Treadway
and my Treadway was so important
and it's something
there's some dumb fucking line here too
where it's like something something
the 50s and he's like
oh the 50s something something or other
and then like this Nora character
goes, uh, yeah.
Oh, that's what it is.
Because the name of this guy is Heinrich Treadway.
And he goes, wow, Heinrich, that's quite the name for the 50s.
And this girl goes, uh, 1750s.
The line is even stupid because he was like, huh, the 50s, bro.
Really good time for music, but I guess it was bad for names.
That's what it is.
Really good time for music.
You are, the 50s, like what you are right now.
you are well and he we should say he's got this snappy young boy haircut it is just ill-fitting
and you know here's how ill-fitting it is dude it is a little boy's haircut you put it on a guy
like mark walberg that's a fucking white supremacist haircut it is it just it happens because all
them white supremacists just got little baby boy haircuts man well no i i join the proud
boys because i'm pride i'm prideful i like myself but no not that kind of pride bro no no oh fuck wait a
Oh, no.
Uh-oh.
Uh-oh.
No, gay, bro.
Uh-oh.
I hung out with Gavin McGuinness.
Uh-oh.
Uh-oh, I'm in the Capitol.
I will.
This is a good point.
Time to make to mention.
They don't say this explicitly, but it almost is,
it is what we're doing because of either homophobia or transphobia or whatever.
If you're a boy, you're a boy in every lifetime.
If you're a girl, you're a girl in every life.
That makes no sense.
Dumb as dirt stupid.
Did they actually say that?
I forget.
I must have been not watching the movie at that point.
They don't, but like if you think about it,
every time you're talking about Mark Wahlberg's previous life, he's a guy.
It's never like, oh, when you were a countess, whatever, you know what I mean?
And there's this, the Sophie Cuxon character, her deal is, which we'll find out who cares,
is she is an immortal lover of this other dude who dies in the first, the first real,
and he, which we'll find out
something, something gets his brain,
his soul stolen onto a computer.
He's a microchip.
This is where when they introduced
that element of this movie,
I was like, pause.
Not enough weed
has been consumed and I had to get up.
I'd fucking light another joint and keep
the train going because I was like,
we're putting souls into computers now.
So it's a gun called a
dethroner and what it does is
the bullet has like, oh my de-throen.
Grower.
Yeah, because I guess, because they're gods, they view themselves as.
Is that what they're?
I don't know.
Anyway, so the bullet, like, has a little microchippy on it.
And once it kills you, it sucks your soul into the microchip.
And now you cannot be reincarnated.
So the nihilists will stop the cycle of reincarnation.
And yes.
But so that's happened to her boyfriend.
And Mark Wahlberg goes into a room.
And there's all these pictures of all these women throughout the ages.
It's like, wow, these are all you.
Like, how?
I mean, like, it's obviously Mark Wahlberg.
All right, I'll do your reincarnation movie.
But I ain't never been no lady.
Yep, absolutely.
And it's just the dumbest.
Like, that's really a way to make your movie interesting.
Exactly.
And you're just wallberging it up.
Well, I mean, a woman in the stinger, the rebirth of him should be a lady.
Well, what do you expect?
You read about this.
Jake E. Ralling did a pass.
Oh, yeah.
A good polish here.
Make sure.
Is that why there's Jewish goblins in this running the banks?
Also, end the finger magic.
All the magic is from there, really.
Careful, Eric, you're going to have to apologize to her on Twitter.
I cannot believe John Stewart walked that back.
What a fucking coward.
He should have stayed on the farm or wherever the fuck he was these past 15 years.
Seriously.
Yeah, this is fucking farm or animal rescue out in Jersey, whatever he's doing, stay out there.
Never apologize.
Of all, apologize to people.
Never apologize to J.K. Rowling about anything.
Nope.
ever. But like if I woke up, if I had this immortal
reincarnation thing and I kept showing up as a dude, I'd get
really annoyed. Like, oh, really? Yeah.
This stuff? Yeah.
So, like, also at this little island facility
secret base, wherever they are, Mark Wahlberg meets
Garrick, who is the actor Liz Carr. You guys who watch
devs might remember her. She was on a pretty
prominent episode at one point. If you haven't
seen devs, by the way, great fucking show.
Really good. Never said, but I
like Alex Garland, so I totally
forgot about it. I should get back.
It was one of those things. Oh, I want to watch that and then it
went away and then I never thought about it again.
Absolutely God to hear, Nick Offerman stuff.
Yeah, it was one of those like Hulu
or FX on Hulu
Barry jobs. And like,
if you didn't know, if you didn't
actively know about it, you weren't going to find
it. But anyway, so this one
I'm sorry, I feel like the only way
I can watch all these shows now is I need
to start being reincarnated.
I really think that's the only way I'm going to get through
it all, dude.
It's totally understandable, man.
I've just been born and I remember
every episode of Married with children.
Oh, sick
dude. Now I'm just, all right, in this
lifetime, I'm just going to go through all the
Hulu shows. And then the next lifetime,
I'll do all the Amazon.
Now I'm watching HALITs.
Oh, crap, bro.
I can remember all of Supernatural.
from the beginning wheel of time tell me about it oh fuck bro every episode of mozart in the jungle
what the fuck dude put me in a computer i don't want to do this anymore this guy is a genius
reincarnated person he could quote every fucking episode of mozart in the jungle
he even remembers the malcolm mcdowl shit it's incredible
tells him about this device
which
are,
did I hear this?
Did I hear this right?
Are they calling it the yang?
I missed it.
Whatever,
whatever you're about to say,
I think,
I don't know.
So the device that,
like,
he has to put the egg
into at the end of the movie.
Oh.
The world killer thing.
And I could have sworn
Liz Carr's character
called it the Yang,
and it will kill everything on earth.
Because if there's nothing left alive,
and this is something that's interesting,
they say there's
nothing left alive
to if that's the case
if there's nothing left alive on the planet
there's nothing to reincarnate to but I was like
nothing at all left alive
means like are we
saying that we could go into
dogs and fucking
trees and shit I mean we're interesting
obviously I mean
whatever the gauntlet rules were it's the same thing
gotlet egg same fucking
just take a second and do a parlor
scene and set the table better
so that I know that this is like a Genesis device
that'll kill the entire planet.
I feel like we need like, show me, you know,
do your magic fingers and show me a model of the earth
being destroyed or something.
Well, you get that shitty, like,
people being blown away by sand,
but also kind of like T2 thing.
Yes, absolutely.
That is 100% a Terminator 2,
flash forward mind thing, yeah.
And it's also very,
I don't feel so good, Mr. Stark as well.
Yep.
It's fucking, I fucking hate Infinity War,
but it's fucking insane to rip it off like,
that.
It's unbelievable.
Holy shit, that felt
freaking real, is what he says.
When after he has the vision.
It's like a mother and a kid
like basically just blipping
away. Yeah, turning to like
ash, yeah.
Yeah.
That felt freaking real.
Oh man.
Frickin, dude.
Just come on.
And it kept like, dude, you're 50 years old.
You're saying freaking.
Like, come on.
Yeah.
he meets the group here.
There's also some big Viking motherfucker.
Dude, this Icelandic guy, man,
what a bad character.
Well, you always have, from now on,
you're going to have to have at least one person
in any big movie cast like this,
have to have at least one person
who was in Game of Thrones.
Has to have.
You have to have at least one person.
I just went to his page here.
He played Lemon cloak,
and I don't even know who that was.
Of course, you have to.
You have to do it.
it. And I read every book
and I read, you know, watched every episode
and I have no idea what that is.
He's also in Vikings
obviously. Clearly.
That's how that works. Oh, he was on the
Star Show Vikings. Yes. Yeah.
I mean, I recognize him from
fucking Eurovision, that terrible movie
that everybody liked last year. He was also in
Atomic Blonde. Oh, really?
And this is Johannes
Johan who
the way they have him decked out in this movie
with the beard and the hair such as it is,
he looks like one of the jackass guys
he does
welcome to jackass
he looks like the one that would be now reincarnated
oh man he's Ryan done
reincarnated
that would be I mean that that'd be great for jackass
forever is just like they start getting reincarnated
that would be fucking no man
are we ever going to get to see that movie
it's supposed to come February it's supposed to be coming out
wow yeah we'll see
I'll believe it when my ass is in the seat
I mean Morbius got pushed back again
guys. It has to stay within
2022 because I need to do that for Worst of
23. I have to do it.
I almost guarantee they're adding something in
for No Way Home. They're doing some tie. I just feel
it in my bones with this shit now.
I saw the trailer for it finally. Actually, when I
went to see No Way Home
and my reaction was, oh, that's what this is?
Yeah. I think because I'm not familiar
with the character, of course.
And I was just like, oh.
Oh, boy.
Got it.
So, like, whatever.
I mean, also at this point in the movie,
he should just,
and we're learning a lot of stuff
which we're talking about,
which is the dethroning thing.
We learned all about Sophie Cookson's, like,
immortal love situation that her boyfriend is on fucking,
Chiwitil Ejafour's hard drive and, et cetera, et cetera.
It's next to my pornography.
And he,
oh, private.
Browsing. I'm looking
at your boyfriend now.
Oh, my brother, Fester.
I see you've been on my computer.
I swear to God, he's
only doing Gomez-Adams with this. It doesn't make
any other sense. And
like no one said no to him because he's like,
you're lucky I'm in your movie.
But like at this point, because it just, it's
so annoying that it takes Mark
Wahlberg even more to remember
who he was. Like at this point
it just starts to get, it starts to drag.
it's like, you still don't remember?
He's like, no, bro, I don't.
What's an immortal?
And it's like, Jesus fucking Christ.
Put it together.
Meanwhile, she was Elijah for, in my favorite scene of the movie,
runs afoul of Toby Jones.
Oh, my God, dude.
I think this is secretly the reason I wanted to do this movie.
Because he drowns him in honey?
No, first, he shoots both of his hands with arrows.
I almost fell over.
my chair just now, just thinking of it. I'm not kidding.
I lead back to laugh. It's the
crossbow thing. And then
his number two
says like, isn't there a better way to do this or
something? He's like, well, the old ways are the best ways.
Yeah, she says something like, you know,
we have guns now or something like that.
But dude, here's the thing. Toby
Jones getting
an arrow through his hand
is fucking hilarious.
Yep. Toby Jones getting
arrows through both of his hands
is like Mark's brothers level.
Comedy perfection.
Poetry is what it is.
I was screaming laughing at this.
Oh my God.
Then him getting like drowned in honey is pretty erotic.
Oh, dude, that was doing it.
If you fancy yourself someone who's into like both like weird gnome-esque little English guys and fucking sticky play, this was doing it for you.
Because it's like this big woman.
Or is it Chuitel or the tall woman doing it to him?
I forget.
I think it's the
Or is it the woman who is
implementing the gasoline waterboarding?
It's her doing the drowning
because a bathurst is like talking to
Oh, got it right, yeah.
So like, oh, you're right.
Oh, dude, Toby Jones is hard as a rock in this scene.
Oh, man.
I want to get drowned by a giant woman.
He's not a tall man that Toby Jones.
No, not at all.
That's why when they were like,
oh, you want to come back for some of these
their Captain America sequels or whatnot?
not one, just put your tiny little voice in the computer instead.
Could you cast me with Charlize Theron?
Maybe once or twice.
She's awfully tall, you know.
I want to climb her.
Dude, a live action B movie with Toby Jones and Elizabeth DeBecke.
It's his little bumblebee suit.
Yes, do it.
They wouldn't have to do any of that Gandalf's CGI technology.
No, exactly.
It would look so real.
It would look so real.
he's dressed in a little bee costume
and he's just like, oh yes, it is I,
Barry B. Benson and boy, I'm horny for you,
Elizabeth DeBickey.
Oh, maybe we can add a sister character
and cast Gwendolyn Christie.
Oh, my God, that's wow.
Stop the show for a minute to think about this one.
We'll be right back.
oh that's lovely
but dude this honey
he and here's the thing about the honey
for the first like
second of it I was like
that's not so bad
I was like I could fucking take that honey
and then after a while I was like
no I would drown with that honey
but I mean like poor fucking Toby Jones
this is actually like he has to look at the script
like Antoine are we
when do we cut does the honey go all
oh it's going all the way and you're going to literally
drown in honey we have people on hand
to make sure you don't die but you
to get you ought to catch you hey hey toby you want to eat tonight you better eat some fucking honey
first no toby it's very important when i'm shooting the scene what i'm going to have you do is
it's just going to be smeared all over your face as if you're a baby with like cake on its face
that's what the look we're going to give you toby is just honey smeared all over your face
it is after you vomit it up here's the thing like there's there's all of the stuff with like
it's getting poured in his mouth and all over his face and whatever and it is
fucking hilarious.
This little guy's just choking on honey.
But then at some point, like,
Chuitel mentions it's,
I don't know what he's talking about.
It's like something, something, something.
This is, you know,
you have to have faith or something like that.
And Toby Jones manages to get all this honey
out of his mouth long enough to be like,
this line is so fucking terrible.
He's like, faith, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Faith.
And he's like spinning honey all.
No, because he's like,
you've never found faith.
And you don't know.
anything about friendship and loyalty.
And he's got all this funny.
He's like poo bear.
Oh, man, he can be making the honey this way for Elizabeth DeBecke.
He's like feeding her like by coughing it up.
Uh-huh.
Oh, totally.
But Chuitel says, thank you for enlightening me.
And then just murders him.
So they're like, all right.
You know, we tried to do this like neural pathways.
There's a quick scene where, like, he has this little helmet on.
He sort of looks like pinhead.
And they're trying to, like, shock him.
Because they basically determine that, like, his days of being treated with all this medication for schizophrenia.
And we are told, I think he also received electroshock therapy.
They're like, oh, that fucked up.
You're, like, you know, your puberty remembering all of your past lives.
So we're trying to, like, jumpstart his brain, basically.
And he sort of remembers, like, fighting with Rupert friend.
and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
But then, like, basically it's like, oh, yeah,
you realize your path life was in Mexico.
You know, where did you hide that egg?
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
And he can't get it.
So they're like, all right, here's the last thing.
And we're basically kind of stealing the way we sort of name characters in the Matrix.
Oh, big time.
We are trying to do in the Matrix thing here.
They're like, we have to take him to the artisan.
And they go to the artisan, who is Jason Benzukas, who is doing his,
best to inject anything into
this movie that's good. Some life. It would be
some life in this. But it's not.
It's not there. Zooks tries his hardest
man, but he can't carry this movie on his back.
The other thing is we should say they
everyone makes it to the artisan
except for the Icelandic dude because
Chuitel
invades. By the way, I realize
Oh no, you're getting a little mixed up. Yeah.
Am I? Okay, sorry.
The old lady. The old lady gets it first.
Liz Carr.
Because basically when they go to see
your artisan, they leave their compound
pretty much unprotected, they go, and he needs to find out where they're going.
So he starts to get into, he destroys their compound and kills Liz Carr.
And like, yes, she is disabled.
And you want to talk about things this movie doesn't need.
Oh, God.
She gives us, he gives us an impassioned speech about, he's like, why would you want to live like this?
And she's like, I, you know, I'm a person too.
And it's like, I know, man.
It's just like, you know, it's in a better movie, it would make a lot of, it would be really interesting because like, that's an interesting character, right?
She's a disabled character who is reincarnated and it, you know, she doesn't, you know, she finds power in that and all that stuff.
All that's great, but not in this movie, but the 30 second.
It's like, one of her three lines is I'm a person too.
Like, it's not, that's how that works.
But I think it's also just because like he's kind of pissed off because like they used to fuck, you find out.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
We were fucking all the time.
and now I can't.
I know that game.
But you're right.
You're right.
I got ahead.
So they get there to beat the artist in
and Zooks is like, oh, is he blocked?
And so they decide like they can do
this other kind of thing
where they're going to like drown him in a fucking
back to tank or something.
Yes.
And meanwhile, so the best part of this whole movie,
aside from Toby Jones getting,
tortured is the artisan lives
because he's a heat
they say he's a self-proclaimed
hedonist and he lives at a gambling
a casino like a Monte Carlo
kind of uh cantobite kind of
a thing going on upstairs
and so meanwhile
you know he
bathurst finds out from this car
where they're going and it's just
it's fucking chew it till edge of four
at a poker table with an enormous
iPad and like
the dealer has to be like uh sir no
Netflix at the table sir
Yep. Totally. You're either gambling or you're off somewhere watching Schitt's Creek.
Look, I like Big Mouth too. I think it's a fine program, but not here.
Bet is to you, Squid Game. What are we doing? What's going on over there, pal?
With the way that gambling establishments, rightfully, are always, like, very paranoid about people ripping them off or cheating and whatever.
Like, the mafia would be fucking on this guy in two seconds. Like, get this goddamn iPad off the table, buddy.
I know Oscar season's coming up,
but the power of the dog
really should be watched at home.
You're ready with the mafia angle.
This is a quick way to get reincarnated.
Oh, definitely.
You pull on an iPad at a high stakes poker game,
you're done for.
You just take a huge, like a camera on your shoulder
and just put it on there.
Yes, sir.
I do.
I'm glad they have Seinfeld.
Yeah, the aspect ratio really annoys me.
But the bet is to you, sir.
20 to you.
Oh, yeah. It's in the Disney Plus menu. If you go to the bonus features, you can actually switch the Simpsons back to 4-3. I know. I wish they did it for other shows, too. I don't know. I don't know. But also, bet is to you, sir.
Yeah, Boba Fed is on Wednesdays. I know the Mandalorian was on Fridays, but it's actually on Wednesday. Yeah, I know. I know. But so, Manzukas puts him in this tank. He officially, like he fucking,
dies on the table but then like a whoops comes back and this is like he remembers being you know styles
in a previous life and the fucking treadway egg inside him thing oh i know everything now bro and at this
point bathurst uh breaches the compound because he's uh he finished his episodes and uh he's ready
to go down there so and then this time aslandic guys like i will fight him for some reason right
There's another character here, Trace,
who this character is just assassinated right here.
That's how they know that they're like getting, you know,
the hit is coming.
Like, this woman just falls over like,
oh, I guess she was assassinated, okay.
It's funny because she's just going to come back.
Like they make such a big deal about how like the microchip people are like being made.
But like, she's just somebody who got shot and has come back.
So I was like, oh, so you don't even have to mourn her.
Oh, yeah, totally.
I mean, it's just kind of a.
knowing because I think
an Icelandic dude is in a relationship
where I was like, well, I have to either
kill myself or wait 30 years
to find her again.
Like, it's really difficult.
Right.
Or at least 17, dude.
Whoa.
Dating your 60s is tough, you know.
I mean, I guess you can have
an argument to be had there, right?
Like, technically, I'm a thousand
and technically she is too.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, she's an old soul.
Yeah, nice try, dude.
You're still going to jail.
Yep, that's what Doug Huntress said.
I think that's exactly what he's
You know here's the thing
Two little kids could get away with it
Right?
Because you know how grampies are always just like
Look at them, they're dating
Oh, you want to hold your hand with the girl from
Are you going to get married when you grow up?
And then you're like, I remember World War II
And you're like, what?
There is a rad moment here.
It's kind of the only cool little action part of the movie
is they realize
that Chuitel's
you know breaking in right here
they all try to escape and Manzukas
is like oh
he does have a line here
where it's kind of L.O.L. He's like
open weapons room door
but then like the dudes come in
and there's all these like little
they sort of look like a little
Harry Potter quidditch little snitch
things fly up and they're spinning around
and they all blow up and kill these dudes
like Manzukas's character has like
the place booby trapped it was kind of cool
yeah i mean i i always like him in stuff but this movie is obviously awful it might be improved if
like he had a bigger role like if they combined him and toby jones into one character yeah that's
actually a good call because he is it's interesting he's always bringing a presence to whatever like
even in fucking that third john wick like which i still like like it's cool when he pops up because
it's like you know fresh new new blood to his story yeah i like him and that i don't like the movie
all of John Way 3
but yeah
if he was in this more throughout
and we had like a
someone who's actually
comedic and funny
to be the comedy relief or something
because this movie
it takes itself seriously
and it really shouldn't
yeah I think
I think you should have gone rid of
Toby Jones
had Martin short in that role
Oh definitely
as Clifford
Jay's playing a fucking eight year old
You try to
take away his dinosaur, he kills you.
So he's like, oh shit, bro, look. Oh, that's right.
Because I'm sorry, he says to what Chuitel is watching on the iPad is not Netflix,
but he's actually got a security camera of what's going on in the artist's room.
Mark Wahlberg wakes up and is like, oh, look inside, bro.
That means I cut, I cut open my body and put the egg inside when I was that younger guy.
When he was that younger guy, I don't think we mentioned it, but he was like searing.
his body shut with a cigarette lighter from the car.
It's insane. I mean, also, like, there's, I mean, not to be an asshole, but there's,
there are easier places to cram an egg if you got to fucking cram an egg.
Absolutely, man. I mean, just fucking pull over first. Sit on it. Get yourself a hotel room,
get relaxed. Exactly. And get like a lot of lubricant. And then just take care of it.
It's called the reverse burdo in case you're wondering. It definitely is. It definitely is.
the egg goes into you
bow wow
well wait
wait it's going
it's going opposite so
owb
oh man
just shoving eggs into burto
oh fuck he made a lot of magic
eggs
obo
so now with this new found
information
we go back to the
we're at the
Bathurst estate in Scotland, I think we're told.
Which, by the way, if you're ripping Highlander like this,
you've got to keep Scotland out of this movie.
You don't do it.
This is one of the biggest mysteries
of the movie, I think.
How do they still have this guy's body?
It's a bling and you miss it.
It's a blinking thing.
For some reason, it's stupid.
They preserve any old bodies that these people have.
I guess just to go down memorandumous.
relayed to like oh remember what I used to look like that and he's preserved like Lenin essentially
in like water and such wow me me from 1850 now that was a hog fuck totally look at that
fucking thing unreal they're just doing arguments it's him and Toby Jones like no back in the
50s I had the bigger dick no I did I had the bigger dick you know what open up the files
bodies yeah you want to go down to the basement we'll check we'll check let's check we're
Go to the archive.
We were trying to have a nice dinner party, but now we've got to go to the archive.
All right.
Toby, you're right.
Yes.
In the 1850s, you did have a dump truck ass.
Okay.
I forgot that.
And yes, I'm looking at, I'm looking at, I'm looking.
Don't shove that thing at me.
Yes, you had a dump truck ass.
I get it.
Don't, don't you start saying grow or not to show her.
Okay.
We're looking at the sizes here.
We know what's going on.
Well, to be fair.
I mean, they're in the pool.
They're in the pool.
We've got to dry these bodies out to get an accurate measurement.
Yeah, get the tape measure out.
really do it absolutely so he gets this egg man and he just is like here's to the end of all things
and it was like like the movie well because here two things one meanwhile mark walberg got shot
in the big thing and it takes him like a long time to get better from that it's like just don't
even have this in your movie like manzukas is kind of nursing him back to health and it's like
okay oh that's right everybody moves on but manzukas is like babysitting walberg while he's like
in a coma.
No, now it's just Sophie
Cookson.
She's going to go in
by herself.
Oh, right.
The whole team's been
fucking killed.
I forgot.
Yeah.
So it's like,
it's just her.
Like this is this big speech of like,
oh,
we can't let it go in alone, bro.
But.
Yeah.
Great.
Yes,
exactly.
And he's got,
Bathurst has this army.
And I'm like,
question.
It's just arm.
Do they,
are they all,
uh,
nihilists or does some people just think that they're getting 60K ear here?
What's going on?
That's a good question.
Probably some just 60K.
Bears. Well, then, are you, because you got to make sure, you know, if those hired goons, like, live through this job, you don't want them going around, like, you know, talking out of school about what you are.
Oh, you just kill them after them.
Oh, sure.
Well, they're all going to die when the egg goes off anyway, so that's the thing.
That's true.
But boy, like, it's, I guess, you know, everybody's got to eat.
Folks will do things for money, of course.
But, like, if I was some goon, and I've got Chuitel Ejofor being like, all right, here's the deal, hired goon.
I am this reincarnated maniac who has lived many lives.
And I'm trying to bring about the end of the world.
I'm in.
You know, like, yada, yada, yada, I'll give you a 60K if you try to kill this woman.
I'd be like, all right, you could have left out the whole like whatever crazy shit you're talking about.
But you know what I mean?
Like trying to just get one of these guys.
So that's why I'll kill somebody for money, dude.
That's all I need.
That's why I just sort of assumed because it would just take so long to explain what's going on to these guys that they had to have been here on it.
The movie doesn't even explain it to the audience.
No, not for it.
So whatever.
So like there's this assault on the compound.
this is when he gets out
his fucking drug. A, she has a perfect shot
on this dude. She's had fucking lifetimes
to perfect this shot and she misses.
Well done. And
what he does here, because like, yes, she fires
through the window, misses
him and the other
the tall assistant is here also.
The tall assistant very
like slowly moves out of the way
and I was like, you got to react better than
that actor. But then also like Chuitel
just goes from standing in front of a window
to like just to the side of it.
was like any real baller assassin would like shoot through that fucking wall and totally kill him.
Like, oh, he must just be right there.
Let's take a chance and shoot him.
The tall assistant is Wallace Day playing Agent Shin.
You may remember her as Superman's grandmother on the TV show Crypton.
Of course.
Of course I remember that.
Why wouldn't I remember that?
Oh, that's sad.
And I'm fairly confident that Agent Shin is just information from fucking IMDB.
I don't know that she's mentioned once.
No, not at all.
Probably not.
What's amazing is this, the actress is playing essentially the same role she played in Kingsman 2.
Like literally, this is what happens at the end of Kingsman.
He has to go and she's trying to shoot from afar and it doesn't work.
It's good for you for remembering Kingsman 2.
Seared into my brain.
That piece of shit.
And, you know, so like this is the big thing.
He gets on his fucking dream.
drone gloves. It looks like
it's the end for her. But uh-oh, here comes
Manzukas and
Walberg. Manzukas has a helicopter
and Walberg has like an off-road
vehicle. It's a lot.
Fun times.
And it's... You know where this kind of
like action scene is cool like in a James Bond movie?
Yes. Not in this Mark Wahlberg
Live Forever movie. Well, they definitely put
James Bond in the blender when they made
this. For sure.
It's all in there, dude. That's the best thing.
is like, take little bits from great movies
and then you'll have a piece of shit.
If this was in a Bond movie,
you would have like that fucking score kicking
in and shit. And this is just like, I don't
even think there's, is there music during this?
Maybe. There must
have been that I don't remember. Probably right,
but I don't remember it.
So at this point,
Superman's grandmother fights Sophie Cuxon.
I'll never stop
to get tired of that. And
she winds up
there's like a you know because
Sophie Cuxon wants to go and destroy
his wall of like old
old soul the sole hard drive
container meanwhile
which is like yeah
that's cool but you have to help Mark Wahlberg
because what he's fighting for is the end
of existence like yes I know
that can happen after
that you can totally blow up that hard drive
after exactly like more people
need to be worried about the end of existence
like I know we want to have like different
objectives but the end of existence
is a pretty big deal.
But my boyfriend's up there.
My boyfriend.
Then he, this is when Mark Wahlberg,
Chewytel Edge of course,
hey, he's activated his egg like 20 minutes ago.
There's no countdown.
I feel like he's just like,
did I do it right?
Is it, is it, is it, it's green,
is green good or green bad?
There's not really a demo phase
for something like this.
You can't really do it.
You just gotta do it.
Wait, hold on. I'm on the phone.
with optimum right now. Yes, it's
blinking white, not a solid
white light. Is that good or bad?
Oh, it went to red again. Okay, we have a problem here.
Okay, could you connect it on your
side, maybe?
Boy, how embarrassing, right?
It's like, you're trying to, like, bring about the end
of times and you can't do it due to, like,
bad internet connection.
We don't...
We don't have Fios yet.
I feel like there's a 5G coronavirus thing
we could do with this
she's on a plane now
I'm sorry you go well no I was just going to say
that the fight between Nora and Agent Shin
is so fucking lackluster
she stabs this Agent Shin
like immediately and the girl drops
dead and that's the end of it
yeah she's like oh wow and then she's like
she's all wounded and she's trying to get to the wall
and like Manzukas helps her and that's sort of fun
Manzucas actually has
kind of one of the most badass parts
in the movie because like all these other
goons are ready to kill
Nora and then here comes
fucking Zooks with this helicopter and just
shoots dudes
with a helicopter gun
absolutely sure
he's having fun here
but so yeah after after the
helicopter assault or whatever this is Walberg
Walberg is on this motorcycle
and he's chasing after
Chitel who's on this huge plane
trying to take off
And he used the sword to get on the plane, that sort of something.
Oh, God, damn.
Wait, he, now is he on top of the plane at this point?
He makes the jump with the motorcycle onto the plane.
The motorcycle skids off, but then he puts the sword down to stop himself.
Yes, he uses the sword to like walk around the plane and hold himself up there.
And then he opens the hatch with it.
After he realizes he has magical powers and remembers.
his life as a young man in
1985
before he was born
this is
this is Neo discovering
that he's the one in the hallway
this is exactly it he's like oh
it doesn't matter like I'm impervious
to like wind resistance like he stands
up on the wing of this plane
see this thing is like they're trying it's like
you have to do a thing where it's like the less
of us or like the more of us dethrone
the more stronger we get or something
yeah there you go that's something
And like, yeah, I've lived a hundred times or whatever.
So now I'm really, really special.
That's right.
Then the Highlander people would really have a case.
Then we're going to court.
It's the quickening or whatever, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, the only thing that's kind of cool about this,
and if it was a movie where it wasn't like just rampant garbage,
CGI, it would be kind of cooler is like the way he gets the motorcycle on the plane
is like driving it basically off the side of a, you know,
Scottish Highland Hill, you know, and times it so that he gets as the plane is flying right.
It's like, it's kind of rad, but it's just like all really bad computer animation, so it really
takes you out of it.
Well, you're right into saying that this is narratively the Neo moment where he realizes.
But as far as the actual what's going on in the movie, this is the Tom Cruise portion of the
evening.
Yeah, right.
Because we're doing the motorcycle stunt into, this is incredible.
they jacked an action scene
from a movie that did bad
the remake of the mummy
where they're being bounced all over
the fucking plane
while there's something's anchored
to the middle of it
is exactly so you
you couldn't just take the ones
that made money huh
you had to take the ones
that also crash and burn
we're gonna get it right this time
sure of course you are
and I mean you know
for what it's worth
and yeah that movie
the mummy I completely
fucking greened out to it
it does suck but like
that sequence
kind of cool.
The whole crash sequence
in that movie
is pretty cool
and you're right
steal from the best
and steal from the worst
I guess
I remember that movie
being bad
but there's no way
it can be worse
than this
can't it?
I don't think so
I don't think so
that has a faddle
Russell Crow
in it it can't be worse
that's true
and I mean
you kind of want
a big speech
between these two
to go off
but no they just
dance to the Mamushka
and fight each other
oh god and you what so it's the this bomb device the genesis device the egg is in it right
and it's gonna go it's armed or whatever and they're you know while they're fighting
further and further straps are being cut off and uh-oh if it goes out
oh oh oh
the last word the last words on earth
uh-oh yeah the funniest fucking part and it's a real uh-oh is uh when it does go
out the side of the plane
and Mark Wahlberg just jumps out of the
airplane without a shoot
obviously because life doesn't matter
I'll be reborn. This is
after Chuitel
has stabbed him
and then shot him in the head with the
soul gun. Oh right, but that
it doesn't work because
we're told at some point
earlier in the movie and you don't even entirely
know why but for some reason
Mark Wahlberg's character has had
a steel plate installed in his head
And the sole bullet bounces off the steel plate and he doesn't die.
You forgot I was a Frankenstein, bro.
But yeah, so now they're both just flying through the sky.
And having just watched Rewatch Mission Impossible Fallout the other day,
now watching this, it's just like,
when this fucking baby shit is terribly executed garbage free fall sequence, unreal.
Even shoot him up did a better job of this.
even that piece of garbage
did better. It's
much better than this. I don't remember that scene
shoot him up at all. They're just fighting
a good one. They're just fighting a bunch
and basically Walberg
finally gets the upper hand and shoots him in the back
of the head with his own stupid
gun. Yes. So that means
what's his name? Bathhouse.
Bathhouse is now dethroned and he would not
be reborn. He's from the
Russian section of
Brooklyn. So he's
he's a bathhouse.
Well, no, I mean, I guess
he will be reborn because she
blows up the other shit. So I don't know, like,
I mean, I guess like if that's,
I don't know. Well, I think that, I think his soul
is in that bullet.
You have to harvest it.
Yeah. You got to, you got to transfer it, you know,
from the jump drive to the external hard
drive and, you know, put it back in the wall.
This is a legitimate question. Like, if that
bullet then falls into the ocean with the
body or whatever is, can
can that be destroyed
on its own? And then
his would his soul be released then oh right yeah so like if it lands in the water and then over time
disintegrates yeah you know what i guess that we'll answer yeah we'll answer that question infinite two
exactly we have talked about this movie as long as anyone's ever thought about it
but yeah so like walberg like falls into the ocean or whatever we go back to yeah the compound
and zooks is there with uh nora you know
leaving her to blow up all the souls
and he's, you know, he is the best part
of this movie, man. He's got this cool line.
He's like, I'll see you around, you know, knowing
like she will be reincarnated. And so
she blows up
the whole thing with
herself included and whatever.
They've made a pact
her and Mark Wahlberg that they will meet up
as they always say
every lifetime meet up
at the beginning. No, that's her
and the boyfriend from the first reel that died.
Oh, yes, you're right. Yes, you're right. Yes, yes, yes.
other guy, yeah, we will meet back up at the beginning, like, is the, whatever.
And then this is, yeah, he's just got more narration here.
Oh, yeah.
Just like, I don't even write any of it down.
It's just so fucking awful.
Because they wind up being, like, two, like, Indian kids that, like, meet sweetly
in a garden or something, and that's their scene.
And the movie sort of ends, but, uh, uh-oh, we're in Jakarta.
And there's, like, some fight club and this kid.
is beating everyone's ass and Manzukas is there and he's got gray in his
beard so time has passed right and he winds up the kid wins and then uh what you
would call it he gives him the sword and he's like the kid the last light is the kid's like
what took you so long or whatever yeah and then Manzukas goes uh or yeah it's
manzooks doesn't say anything but it's like a yeah we'll see you soon treadway or whatever
Oh, shit.
I'm Indonesia now, bro.
I better kick my own ass.
Can I do a self-hate crime?
Meanwhile, under weird news section,
it's like a former restaurant manager
with a history of mental illness
was found in the middle of the ocean
but dead.
Very weird.
News you could use.
Oh, man.
And I guess like, you know,
one thing to say, and they, you know, like Steve
said, they will not make an infinite
two. But if they did,
thankfully, dude, it's, it
is impossible for Mark Wahlberg to be in the movie.
Which I think is probably one of the reasons he did it, because he's also a
producer on this movie. So it's like, hey,
look, if I do this stupid bullshit and
it hits for some reason,
then I can just
collect some fat checks being a producer
on this infinite universe or something.
That's exactly right. Whether or not you're going to do another
movie or like a streaming TV show, you know, I get a little cut to it as the EP. Oh, yeah. Cooper really,
this is, this is like his limitless, like the way Cooper had the movie and then he came in for special
episodes of the TV series. Oh, is that right? Yeah, it's really funny. Who was that? Was that
Patrick Wilson? Was he in the show? No, just some guy. Oh, was just some guy? One of the Veronica Mars kids.
Oh, oh, no, there was another show with Patrick Wilson that came out kind of around the same time, though.
What was that TV show he had?
Doesn't matter.
I will say, that limitless movie, not awful.
It's actually kind of fun.
I never, never had a pleasure.
I mean, it's not, it's, respectfully disagree.
I don't think it's a masterpiece or anything, but, you know, I saw it in theaters.
It held my attention.
I remember wanting to turning it off, honestly.
Like, I watched on TV and it's, yeah, no, I totally get it.
So that
That concludes this movie
Concludes this movie
It's thankfully no fucking stinger scenes
No nothing
You know they know you're fucking dumping this
On Paramount Plus which no one subscribes to
Like God damn
It's fucking over
That is right I am now dead forever
Oh my God
So obviously no recommendations
Final thoughts Steve will start with you
as this was a Steve Sanex-LX.
There is just something about this movie
that I find interesting.
It's not, I'm going to say, you know,
it's a soft recommend for me.
Oh, wow, okay.
You watch it once,
and just to get through it and be like,
what?
I mean, it does turn.
The problem is like there's excitingly funny,
stupid moments,
but most of it's just mud,
but it is such a beguiling watch it of a bad idea
that I do think one spin
might be necessary
if you're into that sort of thing,
but no thanks for me
no it's a light recommend
interesting uh Chris Cabin
oh no no way don't watch this
it's been interesting
I don't think this is even
his most interesting failure as
of late like he's been
I mean he does movies like this they like
they all feel like they're about to start something bigger
but then go fucking nowhere
who Antoine Fuqua or Mark Wahlberg
well both honestly but more Walberg
is who I was talking about like
Mile 22 also seemed like it was
starting something. Instant family
also felt like it was starting
something. Instant family.
He tried to do a like a family
movie after Daddy's home. He tried
to do another one. Oh wow.
Him and Rose Byrne. No,
thank you on that. The only interesting
failure, I will say, Spencer Confidential
on Netflix. Holy sweet
Jesus.
As far as Walberg
misfires, I far prefer that to this.
That's him. Is that like
a reboot of Spencer for hire?
Yes, it is.
And it's a Peter Berg movie.
They're like best buds, right?
Well, it's him with Winston Duke.
So there's Winston Duke there to entertain you occasionally.
Oh, that's interesting.
And Bocheme Woodbine has a good role in it.
Oh, is it better than his pissed away role in Ghostbusters after life?
I mean, it would have to be, wouldn't it?
How do you fucking just waste a great actor like Bocheme Woodbine in that movie?
Terrible movie.
Whatever.
Eric Siska.
Yeah.
definitely not a recommend for me
this plot it's like Swiss cheese
and spaghetti soup
it's just I would
Steve I would agree with like a soft
recommend if there was anything I could hold on to
it just feels like I'm in a fucking
like a dryer on the spin cycle
or something I can't get my bearings
on this film so it is a big
nope for me
yeah watching this movie I felt like
Jack Nicholson and the hedge maze
I really I really
I was like, it's cold out.
I don't know what's going on and I'm going to die here.
You have to die and someone else has to die.
Yeah, that's actually a really good analogy
because by the end of it, you are going,
Rauroo!
Oh, Daddy boy!
Yeah, instead of saying Danny, you're like,
Donnie, Donnie Walberg, could you be in this instead?
Donnie!
Yeah, no, this is, it's a hardcore no.
this was trash.
It's the kind of thing
where it's like
it sucks because
you know
on the one hand
we kvetch day and night
about you know
IP this and that
we just did our
fucking Space Jam episode
you know bitching about
Marvel movies all the time
and whatever
and then he gets something like this
where like yes it's based on a book
but nobody knows what it is
and like it's garbage
and so it's like
you yearn for the new IP
but then it's also garbage
it's just a sea of garbage
just garbage as far as I can see
I mean I looked it up I think
actually the last thing I saw
Not terribly long ago
It was 2017 movie
That I thought Mark Wahlberg was good in
Was Rotten Rids All the Money in the World
I think he actually turns in a stellar performance there
Because you're working with a fucking great great director
That might have something to do with it
But yeah this was just like
Just convoluted messy action sci-fi
movies like this that are so forgettable
It's like, why did anybody waste their time?
I mean, I don't know.
I just, I hope that Chewettel's bathroom that he remodeled after this looks really great.
I just, I don't know what else to say about it.
I'm sure he's enjoying some stage productions.
You know, he's having a day of it, I think, probably.
Just my kingdom for that excellent actor to be in better movies.
I just don't know who he fucking rubbed the wrong way, but it's really unfortunate.
I sincerely hope that this time next year, we are not covering another worst
stuff that Chuitel had something to do with.
I'll tell you that much. But that is going to
do it for Antoine Fouquah's
Infinite. If you want more We Hey Movies,
of course, check out patreon.com slash
we hate movies. This month, we will have a
WLM on 2021's
Denny Villeneuve. I think masterpiece
Dune. That's
coming out. We got animation, damnation
on Little Ellen coming out this month.
My God in heaven.
Eric, what are you doing on the old
Gleap Glossary? Now, this is
kind of almost a two-for here because we
are also recapping every single episode of the Book of Boba Fed, and episodes are available now on Patreon, but we are also covering on the Gleap Glossary, which is a Star Wars Sign Show, where we talk about random characters from the expanded universe. We'll be discussing Dengar on this month's edition, which is going to be very fascinating because... Big boy. Yes, and it also directly contradicts the events that are going on in the Book of Boba Fed. So a little bit of 90s EU to contrast and compare with
the new canon.
And as always,
you know,
just like Book of Bobafet is a top tier
Patreon show.
Another top tier patron show,
Melro 210.
We got an episode out this month
that is,
unfortunately Chris cannot be there for it,
but they were two
banger episodes of that,
of those shows that we talk
about Merrill's Place
in Beverly Hills 90210.
Monumental.
Oh, absolutely.
And as far as Melrose place goes,
history making for that show's history
anyway.
But here on the,
the main feed. The show will continue, of course, next
week. If I'm remembering things
right, some of the
worst of the previous year, month continues.
It ends. It ends.
Yeah, the final one. Here we come, Steve. What are we
closing out the month with? We are ending
on more
sci-fi live-forever nonsense.
It's the Eternals.
Oh, boy.
Marvel Studios, the Eternals.
I think, yeah. I was confused.
I still haven't seen it yet. So, you know,
hey, maybe it's great. Maybe it's okay
to like a movie. I haven't seen it yet.
Haven't seen it. Get ready to be not happy.
Wait, wait. So hang on a second. Am I the only one
that's seen it? Oh, I've seen it. Oh, okay. Oh, you said you hadn't seen that you
were still happy. You were saying Eric was. Eric has. He's about
to be not happy because he's going to see it and it's bad.
Got it. Oh, and you dodged it too. Okay. Oh, so this will be interesting. I'll listen to
two of you suffer in real time next week.
So until next week with Marvel's the Eternal. I'm Andrew Jupe and Stephen
say that.
Eric Siskin.
Chris Cap.
Take it easy.
Uh-oh.
That was a hate gum podcast.
