This is going to be a lot of fun because this is indeed, a pride event for New Jersey pride. We will be there doing this show, but all the proceeds are going back to the state theater. They do a ton of great work getting groups of LGBTQ youth to come to their theater, see the programs that they have going on. They do a lot of great work there. We are super thrilled to be in New Brunswick to talk about this fucking funny movie. Do a WLM for once live, heaven forbid. Well, I mean, Star Trek 4 maybe as well, but I'm very excited that, you know, this is a pride event and this is a charity event. And we are are not getting anything out of this is going entirely to this charity. And I'm very stoked about that. Yeah, I'm going to lose like train fare, which is going to be. So I'm, I'm already in the red. So that's sure. But yeah. for a great cause like this, for a great movie, totally. I'll drop to $9 bucks. You buy a train ticket and suddenly, you know, have access to these facilities and do all this shit. It's work. That's right. Buy the ticket. I'm going to buy it. I'm going to buy the ticket.

Um, if you're like Philly adjacent, if you're coming from the city, from New York, sure, where I'm at. Jersey City. Pennsylvania Hill folk. Come on. Exactly. Oh, yes. We want the hill folk, man. For sure. I love them. Oh, yeah. Um, and I just checked. You don't have to be gay to buy a ticket. I just I just I just I just not I know I'm just like that's a lot of fun it's been a long time since I've seen the birdcage too so that'll be yes totally nice little rewatch there all right guys we've got a lot to get to today first step though we got to run the numbers this is highest gross no, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, wow, that is. That is, uh, I mean, it's been a, you know, however, a month or whatever, but
Starting point is 00:07:13 yeah, a little over a month. What a poor month that has been. Yeah, I mean, well, they promise things would shrink. I mean, there could be no more ironic fucking movie to tank like this than a movie where the characters just keep getting smaller. Yeah, man, man. Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, place. Uh, uh, fourth place this week in the top five. Uh, something we'll be getting to you a little bit here later in the show because a few of us saw it over the weekend. 65, man. Ooh. Yes. He's, he's hanging out with dinosaurs. I sure is. Another almost six mil for week two. Yeah, it's tank town. 65 could have been a good title for that Marlowe movie you guys liked as well. that's how old you have to be. That's actually true. That's the legal limit. I should be
Starting point is 00:08:04 Yeah, man. So here we go. Week two for 65. And guess what, man, they didn't even gross enough to cover the fucking Super Bowl commercial they bought, which was $6.5 million. Ish. This is this business, folks. This is this business. It's all gambling. I'm interested to hear what you to say about it. This will decide whether or not I stream this movie. in about a half, which I probably will. Dude, dude, dude, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, and a lot, uh, a pretty safe. Yeah. Uh, now this is an interesting thing in third place, Creed 3 in its third week, uh, very weird how that sort of worked out, uh, you know, beating the shit out of another 15.4 million. Beating the shit out of Ant man. That's for sure. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:08:47 And not, not succumbing to that Marvel whatever. That's, yeah, this is a good thing. It's got some staying power. Obviously, it has better word of mouth than that. Yeah, like, like, like, like, like, like, yeah, like, like, yeah, like, yeah, like, like, yeah, like, I'm like, oh, I'm like, oh, I'll just stream it. I do want to see it. Although I'm pissed off because I did want to see it in IMAX and I know I slept on. It's my own fault. They got that fucking Shazam in there now in the IMAX.
Starting point is 00:09:12 Yeah, dude. What? Yeah. Yeah. You can just see that 21-year-old gets bigger in, in, in, in-I-Max. You can see all the hair follicles just right here, like, really, really clear. You can see him signing. his name to get fucking insurance
Starting point is 00:09:27 a rental car you look really closely. number two man and rolling. Still it's doing great and it's week to 17.5 million which is only like a 60% fall for and for horror I mean that's really solid man
Starting point is 00:09:45 so still chugging along. It's very very solid very good for the Scream franchise in general and you know pat ourselves on the back a little bit. There's references to we eight movies in that movie is the reason. That's exactly. That's the it's the WHM difference. And I know you are. This is what's what happens. This is what happens when you play ball
Starting point is 00:10:07 with what we hate movies. It's magic. We got this like magic ephemeral quality. He just can't find everywhere. No, you can't find it everywhere. That's that's for sure. And I mean, now keep in mind. All right, 17.5 million second week. Okay. Now we're going to get to the number one, where are we? Of course was, where are you guys? There you guys. I was hoping. I was not land at number one. I thought it would be really fun if it didn't. It would have been super fun if it didn't. But I mean, it almost didn't, dude. 30.5 million dollars for a superhero movie. Oh, and we should say that what put it over the edge was Andrew, Chris and I saw it separately. And Chris isn't here because he was fired from the show on discreetly. he was. He's been he's been sacked. He's just how he's just how he's going to be. You'll read in the trades later this week why that happened and it's going to get gross. Hollywood reporters got a two page story exclusive. You know what? I say we just break it here. Dude, the reason he was fired from the show is because he predicted that this was going to be $100 million. And I was like, you know what? I can't fucking tolerate that kind of ignorance to motion picture. This is how much he believed this, folks.
Starting point is 00:11:25 drove to Atlantic City, put it's put it's right on there. I mean, you got to play house after something like that. You can't trust someone after something like that. I can't trust him. I can't even look at him anymore. No, he's just not here today. And we love him.
Starting point is 00:11:43 We do. We love the guy. He's going to be back. Every time you fucking take a week off like a human being should. Yeah. These jackals jump on you. I started it, but man, but I mean, but it's my fault. We'll, we'll talk about it, Jesus. That, that movie. We do have something I wanted to react to today. We haven't had a time in a couple weeks, I feel, to chat through some coming attractions. I got one that I wanted us to check out because I can go either way. I'm on the fence, but I'm curious about it. We'll talk about it in this segment that we aptly titled, Trailer, segment. Now, after the fucking DC fiasco, which I feel like, put some fucking blame on Shazam for that, too. Why not?
Starting point is 00:12:46 I don't even think we watched the trailer, but, you know, to blame that movie. Fuck you, Shazam. We're not going to put the trailer on screen anymore. We're just going to we've linked to it, and we're just going to watch it, like, like, like, like, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, you know, , uh, you know, sort of like we're doing a commentary remotely here. Um, but this way, you know, the audio doesn't get shut down. The stream don't get shut down. Uh, but this is, um, new film from IFC paint, uh, the new, like, oh, wow. Oh, wow. It's a fake Bob Ross movie. That's actually, it's a little too, we could just get into it where we watch it. Yeah, yeah. But, yeah, I'll save my thoughts for them, but, uh, so fellas, uh, are you
Starting point is 00:13:25 synced up there, I am. I'm watching, I'm watching, I'm watching, and then, you got to watch it is. I have it ready to roll. All right, cool. Good to go. Three, two, one, go. Like I said, this is from our friends at IFC. Love those guys. Oh. Oh, wow. Oh, wow. I'm painting. You know, if I was using an Indian paintbrush, it would be my friend, Wes Anderson. Oh, right, the problem with this is, I forgot the Bob Ross, you can't do the whole thing. It seems like, you know what I mean? Like, this should have Will Ferrell in it somewhere. Dude, that's my, my vibe of this was like, where is Ron Burgundy? Yes. But it seems like they're doing a dromedy thing, which is, I mean, it's interesting. It is interesting. It is interesting. It's a fascinating. It's a fascinating. It's a interesting. It's a fascinating. And also, like, like, like, like, the, like, sexy, uh, paint host comes in. You know what I mean? Like, that's very anchorman, right? That was Christina Applegate's character. That didn't happen to Bob Ross. Like, Bob Ross just stayed on the air for fucking 60 years. Yeah. I mean, so that's, if you're not making the Bob Ross story, you're just kind of making a 90 minute. like, like a, like a, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, a, like, like, you know, like a, like a, like,
Starting point is 00:15:08 you know, could you not get rights? Is it like, uh, that fucking Andre 3000 Jimmy Hendricks movie where they didn't have the. Oh, God. Right. It's a real Janie Jimplin situation. That's where it's going. Yep. Sorry, Steve. No, no, that's the period here is kind of fun, you know? Yeah. I mean, it's, it's, it's, it's, I mean, it's got this lofi indie kind of thing to it. That is interesting. Uh, not sorely missed, but missed. You know what I mean? Like, so I'm curious to see what they do with it. But again, it seems a weird mishmash of broad and indie. Yeah. This, this gag that we just saw of him like driving around stealing newspapers. I'm like, if it gets really fucking wacky like that, like here's the thing. I want this more anchor man than let's say. the skeleton twins. I do, I do. I remember I remember the Bill Hader Christian, which was like of a comedy, way more of a dramedy
Starting point is 00:16:05 on the indie side. So I, you know, I don't know. Consider me intrigued. This is written directed by Britt McAdams, which opens from IFC. Now, my box office thing was saying that it's going to be a wide release on 4-7. So as to the definition of wide for a movie like this, It's obviously not Shazam or scream wide.
Starting point is 00:16:27 I don't know. definitions for wide are very vague these days. It could be projected on my back and be called wide. Well, yeah. Classic wide guy, Eric Siska, dude. Yeah. So we'll get into what we've been seeing on screen. Steve, so you and I saw this.
Starting point is 00:16:48 Eric, you dodged it. Well, yeah. Because, well, first, I don't know. Did we say we were all going to go. I don't think so. You guys just you guys just got shazam up you know literally like we were we cancelled some plans
Starting point is 00:17:02 I'm not in the mood for that and I had the date of myself I'm like I guess I'll do something for the show kind of a thing like I didn't I didn't have anything else to do and I was like this is fine I rushed to it was like literally like a rush to the Alamo I get there which I think is interesting for this movie
Starting point is 00:17:18 it's full of kids and I'm sitting next to like a fucking nine year old kid You're drinking a six pack of beer probably. That was that was like, that was like, that was like, I was like, I was like, I'll pick the one all the way in the back, the seat all the way of the back. And I'm like, can I just, I went to the service like, can I move down there where no one is? And I'm not sitting next to this entire family. And she's like, yeah. Reluctantly said yes. That I was like, yeah. I go to Garfield, the cat. That's awesome. With beer and pizza. You know, just to quick digression, one of these regals, one of these regals that's supposedly closing down, they're serving beer now. So I thought that was interesting. I didn't see that coming. The regal down on the Lower East side, the Regal Essex Crossing, Steve and I saw Ineshire in there. And they got a little like, it's not a great bar, but look, there's fucking beer coming out of a tap man that goes into a cup and then into my belly.
Starting point is 00:18:14 That's pretty nice. Yes, please go ahead Regal is getting into the you want me to fuck We'll do anything I want you to fuck a keg of beer Put it in your movie thing That's what that's all I want
Starting point is 00:18:28 Tallboy for 65 is awesome Yeah you can actually in the one They're toying with this in the reunion square location You might be able to shoot up in the bathrooms Oh I like that A little flavor of old New York folks Oh Steve That was a good like 1980s
Starting point is 00:18:45 letterman joke. I'm like that's what we go. I will say I did not see this ad in Alamo I had a little movie day like I just went to the movies oh excellent throw and break you should have done the fucking glass break effect I don't have it set up
Starting point is 00:19:03 I did a little triple feature and this was right in the middle of it and you know I had like these guys with me so you better believe it was fucking munchy bunchy time. Cut to me in the previews of this. God, I was up in the balcony.
Starting point is 00:19:22 wasn't around anybody. I mean, frankly, not a lot of people showing up to this movie, so I was kind of free and clear. But, dude, it was a big box of mozzarella stings. Oh, just fucking get at it. Yeah. So the movie itself,
Starting point is 00:19:37 not just the concessions. I will start this just for a quick recap here, and obviously no spoilers, but I was stunned. Steve, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, I didn't hate, it. It's not good. Yes. But I didn't hate it. Did you guys see the first one? I turned the first one off, because I was just not in the mood for it, uh, which is, kind of right? Yeah. And like, the, the first one's probably better, right? Or is it not? Well, I don't know. Here's the thing. I will say, I mean, I did see all of the first one. I couldn't tell you a lick about it. I think I fell asleep
Starting point is 00:20:15 towards the end. Chris Cabin and I went and I went and some guy came over 20 minutes into the movie and demanded we moved because we were in his seat. Oh wow. Jesus dude. You're your which did not help your feelings about a science
Starting point is 00:20:31 scene. Well the thing is I think it was Aristic Sam at that point and you're asking me to move. Dude yeah if he's the superhero by the time you're finding the seats fuck you assholes in someplace else. Yeah I also shouldn't be seating you. That's on the theater. I kind of didn't turn it off malice, it was like, it was like, it was like, it was like, and I was like, I was like, I was like,
Starting point is 00:20:50 it had nothing to do with the movie at all. I think just the kind of the, the, the biggest difference is this movie, Fury of the Gods is in a lot of ways not as family friendly, which perked me back up. Because like, I really thought there was just, it was too much kid shit in that first movie. But the way of the thing about this movie is like, it doesn't mesh the two together well so it's like baby shit and then like baby shit. It's like it's like it's like that the movie is that's interesting. More of that actually. Yeah. I just like the movie because I because Zachary Levi I think that character is a it's an embarrassing performance for him at this point. Like he's like I'm just a little kid and old man gee Willikers and they cut to this other action.
Starting point is 00:21:44 who's not doing that, well, well, well, well, like, like, like, like, like, like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, dude, it's, dude, it was so disparate during this movie that I was, I mean, and again, you know, the whole day, but I was like, so wait, man, when Billy Batson becomes Captain Marvel, that's like a different person inside of him, I guess, because they're so fucking different. how did the fucking crew not be like, one of you has to come of you. exactly. I mean, I think that's way too many Shazams. There's six of them. You need to pair that down to three. You know what I mean? And I know it's about diversity. And I think that's a great idea.
Starting point is 00:22:32 But I didn't see the last movie. The move is just you have the top three. You're Billy Batson, your Freddie Freeman and Mary Marvel. Diversify one to three of those. All three. You know what I mean? And like then you don't need. six, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, and, like, and, and, it's really, like, it's really, like, it has a beginning, a middle and an end,
Starting point is 00:23:01 and characters go through progressions, like, I want this thing. And then at the end, he gets it. And, like, that's kind of great. In a small world of, in an incredibly low bar of superhero movies where we're at, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, and desires and those are fulfilled within a two hour place is kind of where I'm at what superhero movies. Like, thank you for giving me that at least. Totally. Like, the little kid with the crutch just wants confidence. Yes. By the end of the movie, he has it. Yes. And he's fucking going to go on to date the girl from Westside story. Like, ain't that grand. But just question, does Shazam in this sequel, does he battle the most real danger in the world, according to
Starting point is 00:23:43 like, according to Zachary Levi, is Pfizer. does he does he, does he take down the a bunch of like, no, there's a bunch of like cool Ray Harryhausen monsters at one point, which like then again, you know, just when the movie was losing me, I was like,
Starting point is 00:23:58 kind of cool. Pfizer made those monsters in a laboratory. I think according to Shazam's Twitter, I'd be right here. Yeah. I think, like, you know, like, which makes it's got a mountain rushmore, which makes it's a mountain rushmore of the most egregious product. We show the product. We use the product to dispatch a villain and then we say the tagline for the product twice.
Starting point is 00:24:29 Dude, that's bad. Is it do the do? It's no skittles. And she says taste the rainbow. And then she says taste the rainbow motherfucker. But it's cut off by a, the motherfucker. by whatever. Yeah, dude, dude, because the other dude, because the other thing, uh, uh, uh, like, like, like, like, like, the, the dayus exx. Oh, fuck. Like, Zachary and Levi needs help. Now you're all Shazams go fucking defeat Mark Strong, I think. Yeah. Yes. Yeah. Um, but this movie, like, they're all over the fucking place, which really like, it's just too much. I kind of lost where I was way too much of it. It's just, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, it's just, it's way too much of it. And like, you know, in the first scene when they're all doing Shazam stuff, I'm like, there's no differentiation between any of these kids. And then like, you know, like, you know, like, the Asian kid totally disappears. You have the other kid, uh, who winds up being gay in a really nice little scene, but he has nothing to do. Like Mary Marvel has nothing to do. The little girl has the little, does the product placement. And that is it. You know what I was going to harp on. It is. So again, the point I was making was like, the adult version, like, like, like, like, like, like, like the end of the first movie, like, they're not long for the movie. In this movie, especially, like, the first two acts, we are shazamming hard.
Starting point is 00:25:54 And, like, that woman that has to act like a little girl, but she's like this gorgeous adult, like, it's a weird. She kind of just, like, comes off like she's high the whole time because she's, like, trying to play it with this, like, sense. of like, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, skittles. And it's fucking, it is so unintentionally fucking hilarious. Like, I mean, uh, an improv note I got really early on from, uh, Anthony Atamanick was, was he stopped a scene, somebody else was doing it. So I'm just playing a little kid. And he's like, listen everybody. Anytime you as an adult play a little kid, it's fucking creepy. And that stuck with me always. And it's, it goes for Zachary Levi. It goes for that character specifically. What do you call it? Adam?
Starting point is 00:26:46 Adam Brody isn't doing it that much, which is kind of good. He's just being like kind of a teen like, like, oh, I think that I'm finally hot kind of a dude. Because, and this is a great note from Levi and other kid. Adam Brody and the kid playing young little kid, whatever his name is, those performances are way closer together because Adam Brody is a, is an act. actor who has a he's not a gimmick, he just has a has a certain personality. the direction for the kid is kind of try to do an impression of Adam. Yes. And it fucking works. It's way better.
Starting point is 00:27:23 And meanwhile, again, the star of your movie, the bubble gum chewing motherfucker that was the only one on that first poster is just so far off from what the other kid is doing. He's doing Baby Deadpool and it's gross. It's gross to watch a hulking
Starting point is 00:27:39 man be baby, OG Willekers. Is it's like, like, like, like the third wall talking about the event? We're talking about this movie too, but. Was Helen Mirren a baby too? No. Helen Mirren's okay. She's the basic herself for sure. Sure, but I, you know, not any more or less than she does in Hobbs and Shaw those fat. I mean, it's just like it's Helen Mirren showing up in a place that feels like Helen Mirren shouldn't, shouldn't dare walk. I mean, and Lucy Liu goes, and Lucy Liu goes to repulsa in this movie, which you never want to do. But at the same time, man, she's in like a Zena costume riding that dragon. And maybe it was the cannabis talking. But again, I was like, that's working. That right there. It's like a decently rendered dragon to like, yeah, that worked.
Starting point is 00:28:28 Here's the thing. And I know I've hated this more than we did, which is a good thing. I'm still earmarking this. It's in like, it's in pencil for next year. in pencil for next time. Another one here. We'll get you. We may see you. We may see you and I both three. This was three. This was my third of the triple feature. So it's a movie. It's a very okay movie. What I like about it and why I think it's worth supporting is it's a simple, simple genre movie just totally nuts and bolts, you know, you know,
Starting point is 00:29:14 about a guy, yep, I think it's, but I don't think it's good, but I think it's good enough time, if that makes sense. Yeah, no, and that's kind of how I feel about it too. Like, get a bunch of buds together and go see it. You know, that would be fun in the theater. I mean, I think, Steve, if you're home looking for that stream in a couple weeks, Like, you and Jen would have fun Like get a couple of cocktails You know that it's going to be stupid You know, at the same time
Starting point is 00:29:45 It's also cool seeing Adam Driver Being something so dumb You know I don't know It's just like simple You know It seems like you know Again, much like Shazam Fury of the Gods
Starting point is 00:29:58 A place where Helen Mirren Dare not walk Adam Driver I know Star Wars But like this ain't Star Wars You know and this ain't Noah Bomb Beck It's weird. It's like a weird. It's like a weird. It's like a weird. It's like a weird. It's like a weird. It's like a weird vibe of here's a big star doing a dumb, fast, shitty movie. I kind of like that. I'm here's my in and out. Yeah. Here's a question for the two of you. On a scale of one to 10, what do we talk to dino violence wise? Because that's really going to sway whether or not I watch this movie. You know, honestly, I would rate it like four and a half. I'd go higher than I mean, maybe like a six. The beef is, I had a couple of like, that doesn't matter. Because again, Eric,
Starting point is 00:30:53 I mean, that is the best way to describe this. It's a canon movie that crawled its way out of the 80s and is now in theaters, which is great. Don't get me wrong. Yes, we need more of these. So go go see it as go see it. Exactly. Go see it as the fucking asteroid comes down. But remember, it's what happens. Just be rude in the theater. You know, actually, here's something. I mean, there was an afternoon in its second weekend at a big multiplex in Manhattan that had a lot of other stuff playing. My theater was kind of full for 65. That's awesome. I saw it at a sort of a big multiplex in Manhattan that had a lot of other stuff playing. My theater was kind of full for 65. That's awesome. I saw it at a sort of a big multi- multiplex, there was lines of people for the concessions. like, okay, okay, people saw it was me. my wife, we watched 65 all by ourselves. Wow, private screening.
Starting point is 00:31:45 That's kind of cool. It's always my dream to have that happen and somebody fucks it up. You know, it's funny. I'm so lucky. I feel you've, I've got the hot streak. I've seen like, I think the last three or four movies I've seen in theaters has been literally no one else but like, like no one. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:00 Oh, I like that man. Um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, but, um, um, is, and this isn't a spoiler. They're gleap glops, by the way. Yeah. I think that's in the trailer or something. But like, he is, he's basically like a bus driver transporting a bunch of fucking, uh, frozen and animation people to their next destination or some shit. and they hit an asteroid like here's this girl and she's this girl and they don't speak
Starting point is 00:32:35 and he's like oh no is broken. Even though I'm speaking English and also saying stuff in the metric system I thought that was fun. Oh yes dude that was another thing I was going to bring up there's one point where it's like where you need to go to finish the movie is 15 kilometers away
Starting point is 00:32:54 and I was like aren't you a fucking alien? We got to traverse these kilometers and then she's She's speaking, maybe, is that a real? If English is that's a real? I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. The, the thing that's annoying is he's like, well, I guess we're going to have to find some way to communicate. And like, so much of this movie is them not talking to each other. Misunderstandings or like a cute scene where like she teaches him a word in her language and then he understands it. And I'm like, I bought a ticket for fucking dining. mania. But also, because they can't, they can't talk to each other. You're literally for the dino attacks because they can't communicate. So they're not really having scenes together. That's just, it's a big fucking mistake. And this girl looks like she's a good enough actor. I mean, give her some actual dialogue. Huge mistake. And then also, like,
Starting point is 00:33:53 for 97 minutes, we do take a little bit of time getting to those dinosaurs, man. And I was getting a little I agree with you there could have been Andrew Andrew you said it was a he's a bus driver he's a bunch of people that's stuck in suspended animation
Starting point is 00:34:14 is the bus driver on the upper west side by any chance I like that Jesus Christ I think you have to be 65 to enter the upper west side well, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, uh, but I will say really quickly, to the upper west side. It is where I spent my entire day yesterday, including what I started my morning with just me and def, wow. Oh, okay. I hadn't even seen, I haven't seen the thing about
Starting point is 00:34:50 this movie. No. Maybe I forgot about it. So what is this movie in? I've only seen the poster, which looks like he's walking on. Oh, I'm back to my Jesus. Oh, it's Jesus pot, inside. I'm making all this wine. It's a movie. It's just, you know, it's probably a New York, L.A. and like big market situation. Because I think it was on, what is the notes here? Check the show notes. So just over 350 screens.
Starting point is 00:35:22 So it's not like a strict New York, L.A., but just a limited release. and it is a fucking one hander man. Defoe is the only person, and it's about he's like a high end, like art thief guy and he gets like helicopter dropped into like the, you know, roof deck of this swank ass apartment where he is to do like an in and out steal these three paintings and get back out to the chopper. And what happens is the security system in this apartment, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like that's like the other end. It's, like, the only person he really communicates with in the movie, like, at the beginning. And he's like, oh, no, I'm getting locked out, blah, blah, blah. And Defoe gets locked down inside this apartment. That because it's got so much, like, art in it and whatever, it's like a total high stakes prison lockdown. So, like, he can't get out of this apartment.
Starting point is 00:36:22 And the owner is, like, on the other side of the world doing. business, not coming back not coming back. was the owner, was the owner, was the house party movie? Oh, no, I'm stealing LeBron's priceless eye. Oh, hey, LeBron, you got to get some security, man. This is the third house of yours, getting burgled.
Starting point is 00:36:45 Oh, my gosh. I didn't even know that part of the new house party movie. Did you see that? No, I did not. No, I didn't see it. It's on, it's on HBO Max, and I've kind of, like, but... because I'm curious, but... because I'm curious, because I'm really like the original movie. There's no way you can live up
Starting point is 00:37:01 to it, of course. No, no, I'm sure not. Is inside, like, a thriller? Is it, like... Is it good? So, I mean... So I'll just bring up the poster again really quickly. Like, here's why it's real good. You see Defoe, like, just go fucking crazy. Like, it's an incredible
Starting point is 00:37:17 performance. Okay. Like, it starts off as a thriller, and not to give too much away, but, like... It's just a dissent into madness with Willem Defoe at the helm. That's the movie. I'm definitely watching this. Yeah. Does he do the risky business slide down the hallway in his underwear? There, well, it's not. It's not. Full hog? It's not. No full hog. No full hog. But we got there is a pop music thing. I'm not going to spoil it. It's fucking holy. So there is kind of that Steve, take those. with, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, but it's, de foe defecation. Uh, oh.
Starting point is 00:38:05 Yeah. Yeah, I got to take a shit in this apartment. De fecal matter. Dude, it's, it is a wild, wild ride for DeFoe. And, you know, it's like an hour and 43 minutes. It could have maybe been 90, but I will, I will give it that cushion because of the, the dissented requires a little bit of time
Starting point is 00:38:27 some other pretty cool visuals so if I don't know on expanding this at any point but if you see this movie out and about at a theater this is the kind of weird shit you want to support theaters or you know stream it if it comes up soon
Starting point is 00:38:45 wild ass Defoe performance I like that yeah yeah so that was our week at the movies folks a lot of good stuff. We want to support we want to the cinemas. If it's Dinosaurs, Bob Ross
