Starting point is 00:01:40 rambling and get to some birthdays. First up, magnificent musician Flea, of course, turned 61. Love that, dude, man. Let's see. We got musician John Mayor. Big week for a musician,
Starting point is 00:01:56 birthdays. John Mayer turns 45. Legendary actor and political activist Tim Robbins, 65. And John Mayer's dead and company buddy, Bobby Weir himself from the Grateful Dead turns a big 76. So, you know, I got to wish my guy Bobby Weir
Starting point is 00:02:16 a big happy birthday. Hope he's having a good one. All right. Like I said, a lot, a lot, a lot to get to today. I'm going to bring in some buds to help me through it all. First, up. God, I just love him so much. Eric Siska. Oh, hello. Hey. You reading those birthdays makes me think like, when's it going to be
Starting point is 00:02:34 my birthday? Everyone's got a birthday. Well, your birthday is just like a few weeks before mine, so I'll say several months from now. Okay. I wish it could be every Monday, because that's what it feels like to be joined here with you fine folks. That's right. Every Monday is a celebration. I will say, if any of our
Starting point is 00:02:54 birthdays ever falls on a Monday, where we're doing the show you'll be the first one getting a happy birthday wish dude I hope so speaking of a dude who loves birthdays everything about birthdays uh Chris Cabin
Starting point is 00:03:08 and then when then he said that when is going to be my birthday and I just scowled at him I didn't even want to look him in the eyes anymore I was writing this movie with him about the Bush administration although it wasn't really about the Bush administration he just starts talking about when's it going to be
Starting point is 00:03:24 my birthday and I I had to give up. I had to stop writing right then. You know, this is amazing that John Sales goes through such similar things as me. Oh, it's like he's a real person. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:03:35 it's a strange thing. But like, you know, he's a very smart man. That's wonderful. Very talented man too. Anything in there about cake preferences? Wait,
Starting point is 00:03:46 hold on. There is a segment about desserts. Ice cream, it better be an ice cream cake and you bet your ass the cookie crumbles got to be in it. Oh. I get, I don't know what you would, it's, he's a tart man. He likes tarts. Oh, tarts are pretty good, but that's an odd choice for a birthday.
Starting point is 00:04:03 I know, I don't know if you're going to get a big one. Do you want to put candles in a thing into a tart? No, that's, no, no, no, no, that seems good. By the way, pretty funny from someone in the chat, Mike Kling, apparently shares a birthday with Anne Hathaway and Charles Manson. Mm, two of my faves. Good, I love all the birthday talk, you know? you know why I started doing this?
Starting point is 00:04:26 Because you know what I used to love? Remember the old? Yeah, the old Entertainment Tonight program. Mary Hart wishing rando celebrities, happy birthday, you know? And we all saw in real time. If you were young, if you were old enough, I should say, not young enough, you're old enough folks at home.
Starting point is 00:04:40 You got to see John Tesh throw his life away in real time. Oh, my God. Can you imagine being like that talented of a musician and you're just on TV? Yeah, or the opposite. I mean, if you get to do so. little all week. I mean, that sounds pretty good. I have to be on entertainment tonight. Come on, baby. That's right. So we got a lot to get through gang. Pretty interesting week at the box
Starting point is 00:05:07 office, I will say. As you can tell from all of our little nicknames we have here. So we're going to go through the numbers on a segment we like to call highest gross. Um, yes, I was office. B-O. B-O indeed. I was noticing someone asking what the, because we have Taylor Swift gags in our names,
Starting point is 00:05:40 what our favorite songs would be. I guess one of mine is blank space. I'm going to put that out there. I like that tune. Anything off in 1989. That's my favorite record of hers. Yeah. I am a very passive fan.
Starting point is 00:05:53 I've listened to like, three or four of the records. There are good songs in there. I don't know if I have a favorite, but I definitely have heard some good ones. Eric's is good. Yes, I've only heard 1989.
Starting point is 00:06:05 I've never heard any other. I'm sure I've heard some songs here. Yeah, you've heard of in the ether, you know? I assume you would be all over the folklore. That seems more of your vibe. I tried to get into it. I couldn't get into it.
Starting point is 00:06:17 Yeah. I figured you for a shake it off, man, Eric. That's a good talk. I'll do that after this. Like you're in a public. restroom and just you know right shaking it off what what the the thing yeah yeah the tally wacker yeah that's what that song's about right it's about like i think it's about tallywackers yes her album urinal yes specific i don't know which one was about jillen hall but i remember that
Starting point is 00:06:44 also being a good one oh wow they're all about jake jillian oh they're all about jake jillian okay i was i was misinformed now if anyone knows in the chat which taylor swift song is about jillian Hall, let Chris now. All right. Getting to the box office figures here. First up, fifth place, the creator. Still fighting along here. Look at the numbers for this guy in its third week.
Starting point is 00:07:06 $4.3 million. Hey, what are you going to say, man? It's not making its money back in this theatrical run. No, I don't. Create profit. No, no, no. There's none of that being created. It's not going to create. I don't think it's even
Starting point is 00:07:22 going to create a very big VOD. it doesn't even feel like a cult movie to me it just feels like something that was released and people were not interested and you were saying last week dude right because you saw it's like well directed but like again bad script bad script I mean
Starting point is 00:07:40 it's all it's all the same shit like what was cool about Godzilla was like that you were asked to kind of like who kept like genuinely who gives a shit about the people in a Godzilla movie and that was a kind of the point of view of the movie and I really, I really appreciate that.
Starting point is 00:07:57 But since then, it's all been about people. Like, Roboan is about people. This movie is about people. And, like, that I'm not sure if he's so good at. I think he needs a big, like a disaster movie is exactly what he should do. Like, when a big storm thing, like, if you get him to do something creative with that, you might have something there. Robot storm. Sure, there you go.
Starting point is 00:08:21 And it's like robots are flying around, going through your. barn. Wasn't that that William Shatner series? Oh, there's robot jocks. Robo jocks. What was that called? Well, it's not a Shatner thing. It's a Stuart Gordon movie called Robo Jocs. Robo Jocs. But what was the I rewatched it recently. It's good. What was the series, though? Didn't Shatner write some sci-fi? Tech Wars is what I'm thinking of. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:08:49 Never was. Yeah. Got my brain scrambled here because all I can keep thinking about is fucking John Kramer. coming in at number four. This movie should just be called John Kramer instead of Saw X. Well, that's how you, that's how you can open it up. Because we've heard this week, of course, they're going to do two more, it sounds like. Oh, is that? I hadn't heard that.
Starting point is 00:09:08 I had heard there was a confirmation that there was going to be a prequel. I don't know what that means. To what? Isn't this a prequel? Exactly. Like, I'm like, what do you mean by it? Well, it's like, it's an in-between quill. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:22 I don't know what they mean by this. that. And then there's supposedly going to be another one after that. And that will conclude the trilogy. It sounds ridiculous to begin. The Fast X should, has to end with Fast X because once you start getting FX1 and FX1,
Starting point is 00:09:38 I'm done. No, no, no, no, no, no. Yep. It's kind of like how you know how like for a while there were like way too many Mega Man games and they started calling them like different things and it was like impossible to keep track of? That's what it's going to be like with these Fast and Furious movies.
Starting point is 00:09:54 guaranteed. I cannot take it. And with this, well, you tried to do it once with jigsaw. And then you tried to like, and that is fine. But honestly, the best path would be to be like John Kramer, like make it about him. Dude, oh, here's what it is. Because he's like a like an architect and an engineer, right? Who had that profession in a couple of movies, but our good buddy Michael Douglas. Sure. You do a John Kramer architect 90s sex thrill. where it's like John Kramer is so horny he risks it all like disclosure
Starting point is 00:10:30 but with John Kramer and that's the prequel I'm sure my advances now you're going to have to be in this murder sex toy swing VR law file thing whatever that was at the end of the movie anyway Disclosure yeah yes
Starting point is 00:10:46 Saw X week 3 5.7 million this brings it to 71 million global on a 13 million budget. So, yep, we will be seeing them prequels and requals and whatever else. Something I'd like to see the prequel for to explain like what scientific experiments got these things talking
Starting point is 00:11:10 and whatnot. Paw Patrol. You don't want to be movie. You don't want to see that prequel. It's mostly like Guardians of the Galaxy 3. It's just powered by massive animal torture. Just up and down the board. walk animal torture. And ironically, it's also a prequel to saw, because that's where John Kramer got his start by
Starting point is 00:11:30 torturing animals and doing little contraptions and making Paw Patrol people. He was working with the high evolutionary. It's true. Exactly. So this guy, what do we like out with this guy? Seven million in its third week. That's great. I'm sure we'll be seeing more from those
Starting point is 00:11:46 little scamps. Coming in at number two, still putting people to sleep around the country. The Exorcist Believer. Son of a bitch. And it's a second week here, $11 million, which is a 58% drop, which is okay. If I could talk to my teenage self or like my early college self and be like, at one point you are just going to be screaming in your own home.
Starting point is 00:12:15 Stop giving David Gordon Green your money. Yeah, wow. You would just be like, what the fuck are you talking of what? No, shut up. He makes these little indie movies. they will never break out. None of this will ever matter. It's like,
Starting point is 00:12:27 it's not like the lady in the second movie of his is going to break out and have a huge sitcom and like make records with M. Ward or anything like that. No, I am amazed that this thing is still doing fucking money. God fucking damn it this movie. It's crazy. It's crazy.
Starting point is 00:12:44 Well, Chris, it's the second weekend. I wanted to die. I wanted to die now, Eric. Well, I mean, there were butts getting. excised out of the seats though. Four. Because
Starting point is 00:12:57 in it number one. Of course. Here we go. Taylor Swift, the heiress tour concert film. And it is a concert film, by the way. It's straight up like all just the performance. Sing songs? What do you mean sing songs? They sing songs? Yeah, they sing songs. No, to say
Starting point is 00:13:15 it's all performance. It's not like backstage interviews. It's not like looking back on the tour or anything like that. It's just straight up the movie. We'll talk about it a little later in the program. But out from AMC Theater's distribution OK, $97 million. I will say shout out to my buds at variance
Starting point is 00:13:33 films. Because if you saw this at not an AMC theater, like an indie theater or something like that, odds are those dudes took your booking. And they are no stranger to event cinema. That company is who gave you all the
Starting point is 00:13:49 amazing RRR screenings in the United States. So they worked in partnership with AMC Theater's distribution in some way. I mean, this was really smart for Taylor Swift. She walks away with 57% of the box office. That's like the deal she struck, right? So like she's essentially
Starting point is 00:14:05 almost like self-distributing the film. But Eric, I will say this, 57%. It's less than fucking Disney takes in its first week. Yeah, they're fucking crooks with box office stuff. But anyway, 97 million. I saw something that was like, oh boy, a little underperformed from what we were expecting, which was like a hundred
Starting point is 00:14:25 million. So I'd say it's fine. 97 million. You're good. We'll be interesting to see what it totals because something I read this morning, I wasn't aware that this was happening, but they're not they're taking the movie off screen Mondays through Wednesdays.
Starting point is 00:14:41 So it's only Tuesday through Sunday. And it's weird because I haven't seen something that fucking stupid since Netflix tried that with oh Lord, now I forget which movies. it was in their early days of oh it was irishman that's what it was they were like you can play irishman like thursday through sunday and then it has to come off and then you can come back and
Starting point is 00:15:04 all these people were like no that's why real dumb i it is dumb i don't know i i've that sounds so stupid like i i will say i like i think this is it's a good uh showing for a movie like this for sure but like it's also fine if taylor swift doesn't know like doesn't have to best instincts when it comes to movies. Like, let us all remember. She was like, what's going to be my first crack of bat? A late David O. Russell picture that nobody wants to
Starting point is 00:15:34 see. Amsterdam. That literally nobody wants to fucking see. She was in shit before that, though, dude. She popped up in, I believe, it's either, my wife and I were just talking about this yesterday. It's either Valentine's Day or New Year's Eve, one of those movies.
Starting point is 00:15:49 Oh. She's in there for a hot second. She did like a, I think she did a voice in an animated thing as well. I'm not counting anime stuff, but a Valentine's Day, like, and she's not just playing herself, she's playing a person. I believe it was she was playing a person, yes. She was in
Starting point is 00:16:05 the giver. She was in something really, what it where is it? God damn it, I just scrolled by it. These are also, these are not these are not shaking. These are not shaking my theory, by the way. She just might not have the idea. But like, to to want to pair with David
Starting point is 00:16:23 with David O. Russell now is shocking. Like that's a real fucking weird thing to want. It's like known that that dude sucks shit. A creep, like a real fucking creep. Legendary fucking creep. She does have a really funny death scene in that movie though. That's all I've seen in that movie.
Starting point is 00:16:45 Yeah, it's all anybody's seen. It's really dumb. She gets kind of like Isadora Duncan almost, I think. Yep. She's like run down by a car. I don't know. Anyway, around the art market, we were just talking about this a couple weeks ago and you can find our review for it on our YouTube channel. Anatomy of a fall. The Justin Trayette film opened, limited this weekend from our good friends at Neon did 125K on five screens. Wow. Good movie. Really good showing. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. So did just want to get that out there. And speaking of spreading the word, Thursday the 26th of this fine month, October, 9 p.m. Eastern Gang, we're doing our next worldwide digital experience, they call it, Moment.com slash we hate movies. We're talking all about the fourth Friday, the 13th movie, which is the final chapter. The final chapter, the fourth movie, like, what, a dozen or so? 12? Yeah, yeah, like 12 or something. So, of course, that makes a lot of sense. This is the
Starting point is 00:17:52 the one with Crispin Glover. That is a big selling point. Chrispin and Corey. Corey is also in it, yes. But the Crispin Glover scenes are just immaculate in this movie. It's a fun movie. We're going to have so much fun talking about it on October 26th. That's right. Speaking of
Starting point is 00:18:11 that movie, this past Friday was of course Friday the 13th. Did you guys celebrate the holiday in any way? Do you watch any Jason movies? Of course. Of course. I saw Jason lives at a brewery they're playing it at a brewery uh this organization that is near me called story screen was playing it and it's a lot of fun it holds up what a great great film hell yeah you watch anything chris or no i had seen uh i watched jason goes to hell again i like that movie that is interesting that goes up a little bit more for me like the style i guess i just missed
Starting point is 00:18:46 the 90s style like ugly there was a griping with like the gore of it but like you I like the gore of it. I think it's what like eating the guy eating the heart. It's fantastic. I don't know what. It's pretty funny. I don't know what else. Like, yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:00 As far as a Jason movie goes, I've really come around to that one. Ugly people, boxy looking cars. I love boxy clothes. Ill fitting suits on men. The 90s man. Like it's the Jason movie that looks most like an X-Files episode. I did I did two actually. So I did Eric.
Starting point is 00:19:19 Also I did Jason lives. Not at that brewery event. That sounds awesome. Just at home. And then the night before that, so actually on Friday the 13th, I celebrated two days, man. I was, oh, you got to do it. I did Roy the movie on Friday night. And boy, that's just a bad idea. Oh, you still don't like it.
Starting point is 00:19:40 You didn't reappraise it. Like Chris has now loves Friday. No, I mean, it's funny, but it's stupid. And to just have some guy. And that's where the leap happens, right? that's where Tommy Jarvis just jumps into becoming an adult. And so timeline-wise, all of a sudden, the movie's like somewhere in the mid to late 90s,
Starting point is 00:20:01 and it makes no sense. I don't know how you biff stuff like that, you know what I mean? I mean, the thing about movies like that is that, like, I was thinking about this weekend because I also watched, we don't have to talk about it, really, that a totally killer movie on Amazon. Oh, sure, yeah. Madman's
Starting point is 00:20:21 Curin Shipko Sally Draper and like I was like watching that and my thought was like there's a reason I like any garbage movie made in like the 70s or 80s that is just like documenting the world around you
Starting point is 00:20:40 versus these like digital images that just don't have any like pressure to them they don't have any like anything to and like I really like totally killer is a five if you're just looking for like gory like not even that gory but like a stupid little throwback 80s thing it's fine but like yeah i can't like it like i like even roy the movie which is like one of my least favorite of these movies yeah because it just looks better like the image even a shitty image made on that kind of film looks so much better and so much more composed
Starting point is 00:21:12 and like the lighting of it just makes more sense than like any of this and like i can't even enjoy. I tried so hard to just enjoy a totally killer and I was supposed to check out the whole time because none of it meant anything to me. The flat, I mean, flat digital cinematography coupled with like bad lighting is a
Starting point is 00:21:31 real problem. I would say like plaguing horror right now. There's so much coming out that like I'll give stuff a shot on shutter and I'm like, this looks awful. It looks absolutely terrible. And I can't, I
Starting point is 00:21:47 can't get into it. There's just something. My eyes won't, my eyes and my brain do not agree to play with that. Things are going to keep getting worse. Okay. And one day you're going to go, someone's going to look back at that movie and be like, God damn, this looks good compared to what we got now. When everything's shot at 120 frames per second.
Starting point is 00:22:06 Perhaps, but I really don't know. I think the world dies out before we get there. That's my, good. That's my thinking. What do you think? Next week? I'm not giving you a date. Come on.
Starting point is 00:22:17 Come on, we can play dates. Always know, I'm not giving you a date. I don't, I'm not a prognosticator. I'm going to say the 27th of this month is when the world will end. Yes, this month and the day after our great event on Friday the 13th, part four, the final chapter, our digital worldwide experience where we're talking all about Friday the 13th for it's going to be so much fun. And there's a Q&A afterwards and it's on demand for seven days after. So if the world is still here, which it probably won't be. you can watch it. This is a good way
Starting point is 00:22:49 to convince people to come. It's your last hours on this earth. Abandon your loved ones and those you have not spoken to for many, many years. Abandoned all of that. With us to talk about Jason. We're the loved ones. Jason's a loved one. I see. We're loved ones. Got it. Yes. Okay. All right. Understood. Yeah, I don't know. Interesting Jag, though, Kevin. Because that's
Starting point is 00:23:17 I've been wanting to mention that for a while, too. There's stuff that just, it looks so shitty. And actually, I was thinking with Roy the movie, it opens with like, just I think like a shot of the lake or something at night, like before you get the Cory Feldman cameo. And I was like, this just looks so good. Yeah. It's just you're filming trees and water.
Starting point is 00:23:35 There was, and it looks way better. There's thought, like, you, you notice the thought that had to go into it. Someone had to plan for this to happen at this hour of the day, like, as composed do like, we'll shoot it, throw it to the computer, fix up anything we don't like, and then send it off. Like, there's a difference there. And like, you can feel it in every image. And like, I don't know. I don't think it's ever going to get better. Someone in the chat here makes a good point. A fucking rat says, the ain't lighting movies properly these days and it sucks because we have the best home video viewing technology right now. That's absolutely true. At the
Starting point is 00:24:11 time when we can like see every nook and cranny, you've got these people who have been told their entire lives like oh anyone can make a movie and they just do a shit job and everybody can see it um so yeah really abysmal stuff uh but it all keeps coming abysmal or otherwise and we try to keep track of it as best we can by paying attention to the coming attractions on a segment we like to call trailer segment Now, can I tell you the best part of my experience going to see The Exorcist Believer was the trailer for this movie. I have not seen this yet.
Starting point is 00:25:04 I don't know what this is. It looks like he's a candy man-esque figure. Is that right? Oh, dude, if only there were paranormal activity involved. But it's actually way funnier. It's the new David Ayer movie show. Oh, it is the beekeeper. It's coming out January 12th.
Starting point is 00:25:23 Oh, boy. Do you see the writing credit? Go for it, dude. Yeah. Kurt Vimmer. Oh, that's right. Yep. Air Vimmer.
Starting point is 00:25:32 Combining powers for this movie, The Beekeeper with Statham. We're now making suicide squads out of production staff. Yeah. Oh, man. Oh, yeah. Okay, now I have to see it. Even before seeing the fucking trailer,
Starting point is 00:25:45 I got to see this thing. If we got Kurt on it, I need to see. I knew you'd be down for it, dude. Now, I got to say, though, it kind of chuffs my ass because a January 12th release date, it just skirts by worst of 23. So if we want to address this movie, it's either emergency episode or, you know, we're waiting until next January or something like that. But anyway, folks at home, if you would like to watch the trailer along with us, of course,
Starting point is 00:26:14 the information is in the below area here on YouTube. Speaking of which, remember, you know, you're sitting here watching this folks, either live or on the replay. Like this video, shoot us into that algorithm, will you? Shoot us. Shoot us.
Starting point is 00:26:29 Shoot us into the algorithm. Into the algorithm, Eric. Both. Not like Oswalding you on the street. Don't let them do that. So yes, this is a Jason Statham action movie. It's, guess what? It's an action movie that's saying something.
Starting point is 00:26:46 And that's the best kind. And I'll tell you right now, Chris Cabin, trailer before the trailer, so Gird your loins for that. But all right, everybody. Hope you have it pulled up to watch along. The Beekeeper from David Ayer in three, two, one,
Starting point is 00:27:02 go. Everyone, need your attention, please. I'm going to burn this place to the ground. Oh, yeah. He's got a hat on. Oh, oh. Official trailer. Thank God. official trailer. Oh, the lion. Yep.

Starting point is 00:28:40 My fingers. He just cut off a dude's fingers in a band saw. That's pretty cool. And I love how he's great. Oh, boy. Oh, my God. Wow. Yeah, that's going to be bad.
Starting point is 00:28:51 Yeah, dude, right? Okay, okay. You can see why this was the best part of Exorcist Believer. Yeah, I'll be checking this out. I also like how they dress Jason Satham to be like he's in every man. He's a dude on a mission. He's got that hat on a hand. But eventually he will, I see suit.
Starting point is 00:29:08 He's going to change into suit eventually. Well, because he's getting. the DC at the end of this movie, dude. I mean, obviously, this trailer's shown us way too much. I mean, you also have to do John Whiplighting as you see. I mean, he's going to storm the capital. You're saying. Oh, maybe.
Starting point is 00:29:23 He does look like he's near it. He is getting to the bottom of something in this movie. Oh, wow. Iron's really hamming it up here. The Joker. This woman with this huge Gatling gun, like this shit is crazy. it's flammable as fuck who know
Starting point is 00:29:43 oh wow lighting a person on fire blowing up a gas station this was like the only way they could figure out how to adapt that article that's like if the bees die we die from way back when
Starting point is 00:30:00 they're like how do we get this into theaters how do we do it and here's the Hollywood version and it's got none of that shit there was like an adaptation that went on between then and now adaptation to movie and then like now it's just this
Starting point is 00:30:14 it's an action movie that's all that's insane that's nuts that happened the credits have to be like loosely based on that B article it's a book too the earth without I forget the name but yeah
Starting point is 00:30:27 oh I've got no clue I didn't really know the article you're talking about I was just letting you letting you go yeah anyway so yeah my buns will be in the theater for that stupid shit, absolutely. And I got
Starting point is 00:30:42 to say, dude, just compared to like another Statham movie from a couple weeks ago, unlike Expendables 4, there's like a few at least real explosions in this movie and I don't know. It's probably better than Expendables for, right, Eric? It would have to be. Yeah, it has to be. I can't
Starting point is 00:30:58 do that. Even though I think the strength of that movie is when it just becomes a Jason Statham movie and we forget the Expendables. Yeah. Oh, yeah, okay. Gotcha. Well, I guess we'll see. So looking forward to that in a, you know, ironic for the show kind of way.
Starting point is 00:31:15 But anyway, a couple of movies to chat about here. Like we said, the festival, the New York Film Festival that is, wrapped up yesterday. But we saw something on Friday morning that we wanted to talk about before closing
Starting point is 00:31:30 out the coverage of the festival. And that was the closing night film, the new one from Michael Man, Ferrari. Chris, you and I checked it out. know we're both riding high on it. You want to take us away here? Start us off. Yeah, I think it's
Starting point is 00:31:46 if it's funny. It's not exactly like Michael Mann movies I've seen before. It's a little bit more I think the he's getting older and like he's kind of not doing it like it's Black Hat is like genuinely experimental in ways.
Starting point is 00:32:02 Like I still got to see it. I love that black. It's a really great movie and this is much tamer but the things about it are very man-esque. the idea of as a portrait of masculinity and like fucking against what's good about it
Starting point is 00:32:17 and what's bad about it and control versus letting go and like opening yourself up these things are all there but it's in a much more what's so like acceptable like I can see people just being able to walk out of the street
Starting point is 00:32:33 and see this movie and not have any like oh my God as compared to black hat would be like what the fuck was that packer fucking action movie what? No, absolutely fucking not. I don't mean this negatively in any way, but
Starting point is 00:32:45 like, format wise and stylistically, it's a much more conventional movie. Yes, he's much more he's getting, he's tamer, I think. And like, I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing because all the things he's doing are still very moving the shots are all incredible, like the way he,
Starting point is 00:33:04 the movie, it's about essentially, I mean, it's not even his whole life. It's a very particular part of his life. Which is like compared to another like bioish movie that Eric and I saw at the festival Maestro you know where that's like a bunch
Starting point is 00:33:19 a bunch of Lenny's life this is like three months in the life of Ferrari. It was essentially from when Maserati took the title of the fastest car until they took it back
Starting point is 00:33:35 is essentially the time period of the movie. Yes. It's a movie that he's been trying to get made for ages, so much so that the man who wrote the screenplay, Troy Kennedy Martin, has indeed been dead since 2009. Yeah, yeah. That's crazy. Yeah, yeah. I will say it is an absolutely stacked cast. Penelope Cruz is fantastic as Laura.
Starting point is 00:34:05 Driver is great playing another famous Italian man with family problems. I think the accent's better here much better here I think I gotta say dude it's way less cartoony you're totally right you know why he got cast with that name of his yes absolutely you're dead odd
Starting point is 00:34:24 Patrick Dempsey who I realized because like they haven't made up to look like a much older man that he's playing his hair he plays Pierroofi does he not look like a late in life Charles Chaplin I was like, you could get this dude
Starting point is 00:34:41 doing some sort of like merceau verdue, like I could see it happen or something. Like he looked so much like Charles Chaplin as an old man. It was very strange. I never wanted to like viscerally fuck Charles Chaplin, but I did Patrick Dempsey
Starting point is 00:34:57 in this movie. He is looking fucking good as of late man. You didn't want to fuck Charlie Chaplin? No, of course not. He's just, he's, I want to cuddle fucking Charlie Chaplin. I want to be like Oh, you don't want to tickling with his Mustache? No, no. No, no. It's not that kind of love. Yeah. I, you know, I'll say this, though, two
Starting point is 00:35:19 knocks against it. And this isn't a spoiler, folks. The movie starts with some, like, really banged up archival footage, you know, of those racing days. And they put in, like, fake, old-looking black and white Adam Driver behind a car. and like it elicited laughs from the audience and I don't think it was supposed to like it just looks very silly it looks almost tuneses
Starting point is 00:35:48 the driving cat-esque in a way the way it just kind of cuts to him because he's not driving anything it's just fake so that's kind of bad and I will say I did not care for Shailene Woodley as the Lena Lardi
Starting point is 00:36:02 the mistress I mean acting wise like the the emotions and everything hit it's all great I spent half that movie trying to figure out if she was trying to do an Italian accent of any kind. Whatever she's doing with that voice did not work for me in the slightest.
Starting point is 00:36:19 It's like sometimes it's there, sometimes it's not, like something sound more an Italian-speaking English than other things do. I thought it was very inconsistent. I didn't really notice. I mean, I think to what you're,
Starting point is 00:36:35 what I could say is what I didn't like about the role was that it's just not it does speak to like I think Penelope Cruz is one of her character is one of the better female characters that have been in a Michael man movie he's notorious for not doing great on this one
Starting point is 00:36:51 it's like her Tuesday weld in she somebody Viola Davis in Black Hat is really fucking good oh interesting and Diane Vanora in heat of course is the big one I think of the time. But, like, I just don't think she's very well written. Like, I think she's there
Starting point is 00:37:11 to be, like, she serves the movie in the way that the character serves him. Right. It's an afterthought in both cases. I don't, I don't put that on Charlie Woodley at all. Uh, I think she did fine with the role. It's just like, I, you just, I'm not expecting much from female characters from Michael Mann to begin with the same way. I'm not expecting a lot from Christopher Nolan on that, uh, on that tip. it's just not what they're good at. And I just accept that about them. And I think, like, Cruz does as,
Starting point is 00:37:43 like I said, as good as anybody has done under him, I think. I can't complain much. I think that's a fantastic performance from her. This is out wide at Christmas gang. So look for it, you know, pretty much
Starting point is 00:37:59 everywhere. It's fucking great. The racing stuff is nuts. Fantastic. It's, it was a great thing for them to end the festival on. Again, another one of the best movies of the year. IMO. So I'll get down to it, gang. I think I was the only one that checked out the Ares Tour.
Starting point is 00:38:17 Chelsea and I went on Saturday. You know, and I got to say, it's a lot of fucking fun. I was concerned that it was going to be, because they just announced it, like, so quickly. And like the turnaround from announcement to release, I was like, what is this? You know what I mean? My fear was like it was just this slap together like, hey, we got all this footage from the tour. Let's like, you know, put it together and con people into buying tickets to it. But it's actually an incredibly well thought out and directed performance film. I mean, she's fucking amazing. Like regardless of, you know, how big a fan you are of her music or maybe you're not at all, like she is a performer. And that whole thing, the whole concert, you know, the Erez tour concert was. so theatrical and big and just that really awesome
Starting point is 00:39:10 like stadium arena music show that sometimes is just really fun to see. And CNN IMAX was great. And it was, we went at noon on Saturday. So there was a lot of like little girls, you know, friend groups and families and stuff. And at first Chelsea and I were like, oh, God. What have we done?
Starting point is 00:39:34 But it was, it was totally chill. And, like, the little girls, like, singing the songs were adorable. People were grooving in the seats. Like, I was just doing that exactly for Stop Making Sense. So, like, I was having this cool moment of, like, looking at these younger people being like, oh, this is like, you know, what that movie is for me, this might be for them. That's very cool. And, you know, also, I'll say, I was completely sold out IMAX Auditorium.
Starting point is 00:39:59 And I had the thought while watching it and, like, looking at the sea of people, I was like, you know, I'm sick and tired. And I think the argument is dead. about people don't want to go to the movies, it's not true. People just want to have things they want to see. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:40:14 So, you know, it's like, it is up to the fucking studios, man. You all have to be doing better once you end the strike as far as like what we're putting out. Because people want to see stuff. People want to have that engagement. Can I ask you, how many costume changes
Starting point is 00:40:30 we got going on in this one? Oh, like, I think there's 10 eras and she's got a different costume for every era, I think. Did she do that on tour, too? Like to run backstage and, wow. I think so. I mean, I think that was the show.
Starting point is 00:40:45 What you're watching is, much like Stop Making Sense, was three nights at the Pantages Theater. This was three or four nights at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, where I think the Rams play. And so it's all like really well thought out camera choreography and everything like that. But yeah, what they,
Starting point is 00:41:06 you know, the magic of the movie, right? Because, like, the tour itself, like, when you were going to this, it was like, it was the same thing every night, right? Um, in every city along the way. So, like, when you were actually there, it was like over three hours. And part of that was because of like, costume changes and shit. You're watching this and like, it's the, you know, the magic of editing. That stuff's all cut down.
Starting point is 00:41:27 So there's none of that downtime. You know, like one era ends. And then she comes back like after a quick transition and she's in a different. outfit and the dancers look different. It's a different set and everything. That is kind of my gripe, you know? Like, I mean, I didn't feel it, I guess, in the theater,
Starting point is 00:41:46 but it is like two hours and 40 minutes or something like that. Like, because it's the whole darn thing, you know. I'm right here on IMDB, the best source of everything. On Swiftopedia? Are you on... I'm on Taylor Swift-Ares
Starting point is 00:42:01 IMDB. You're goofs. Listen to this. Taylor's hair position changes between shots throughout the whole film over the shoulder
Starting point is 00:42:13 in one shot behind the shoulder in the next jump shot for example oh man people found it helpful and 14 said it was unhelpful
Starting point is 00:42:22 well those 14 are right can you just imagine like David Bordwell like getting the shots up on the screen and they're like well yeah that doesn't really make sense right there
Starting point is 00:42:31 I don't know about that look you switch the angle like that it means a hundred different things you're like no it's it's that's what I mean it's ridiculous to think about it that way but I will say about the release I think she's doing something
Starting point is 00:42:46 it could really have gone either way and I don't know exactly how the box office you know bears this out but it is smart to do something like this when people are still because the thing is still going on correct no I think it's just ended I think it just
Starting point is 00:43:03 ended yeah that's a good way like while it's still in people's heads to release it like that and be like no no no don't wait to like have it be a victory lap in a year because people I don't think are going to go out so much. It's smart because the stadium tour has been like
Starting point is 00:43:19 advertising for the movie as well and that and the thing is is because by then a year out from now you're going to have like I don't know how people I'm sure there are people like watchdogs on this shit but like YouTube clips of her performing stuff like that is going to become
Starting point is 00:43:34 fine. That's enough for a lot of people to just watch like clips from the computer or like if you can down I don't know if you can download like actual sets that people like record somewhere. Maybe I don't know if you I have no idea. I don't know if you can get her on the boot like dead and company. I don't know if people
Starting point is 00:43:50 do that. That would be really funny if they had like a Alicia's fix. Yeah. No like it could have gone the other way is that like people are just like I just did it. I don't want to go back and see it like that. I think it was smarter to just like, yeah, one last go.
Starting point is 00:44:06 We just finish this thing. Let's do this as a stamp. Like, and that way, because I do like the Beyonce docs where they do the behind the scene stuff. I think that's sure. I do like that part of those movies. But not doing it. It does just engage your audience
Starting point is 00:44:22 and that is an audience that is very easily engaged. Oh yeah. It looks like I'm on her website because I wanted to check. I guess a year from two days from now. Okay. So a year
Starting point is 00:44:36 and two days, she's back at it in Miami. They're doing some dates in Miami, New Orleans, and Indianapolis with this tour again. But yeah, for the... That's a better victory lap because that's going to make you more money. If you're Taylor Swift, that's going to make you more money
Starting point is 00:44:52 rather than just using this as your victory lap. Well, also, I would think too, as far as like, oh, I just saw it or whatever, like, for a lot of people, like, you know, they paid $600 for the worst seats of their life just to go and so like this is like I mean you're right there you know what I mean you're seeing I will say
Starting point is 00:45:10 another thing props to the director Sam Wrench who this is not their first rodeo with concert film type stuff at all you look at the laundry list of stuff on IMDB but does a decent enough job at like featuring the other musicians like there are a decent number of shots where like it's musicians and Taylor Swift is not
Starting point is 00:45:33 in the frame. So it gives time to the dancers too which is really cool. It's, I mean, it's fun as fuck. Like it's just you go, you hear some great tunes, you watch an incredible production captured, you know, really well done. It's really well done.
Starting point is 00:45:51 So, yeah, Andrew says go see it. I will say though, here's one knock. I said the audience was great and they were. But we're doing like, I'm filming my friends watching the movie in the theater and like you want to take a little video of the opening, your favorite number. I was willing to do, you know, make some concessions for that just because I'm like, all right, first of all, like, this ain't your world, old man. So you sit there and just fucking enjoy the motion picture and drink your soda, fat boy.
Starting point is 00:46:25 But it got to a point where it's like, oh shit, Liz is watching, they're saying whatever. It's like, just watch, like, watching. You're missing it. That's what would have sought me. I mean, like, I don't have, I am not related to, nor do I live with a Swifty. So nobody was really asking me to go to this or like, hey, we're going anyway. Would you like to tag along? Right.
Starting point is 00:46:50 Like, that certainly would have, I knew, I, I just know stuff like that's going to happen in a movie like that. Yeah. Right. Taylor Swift, you know it's going to happen. Minions, you know it's going to happen. you just know what certain times it's true it's absolutely true there was a lady who
Starting point is 00:47:07 like before the movie started was like oh do you think because it was like we got there way early so there weren't a lot of people in the auditorium so we were the closest people to ask she was like do you think they would exchange my tickets for two o'clock this afternoon and I was like I don't know like you're going to have to ask them
Starting point is 00:47:25 like this thing's selling really well like who knows what seats are even available and she was like oh because my friend just texted me and she can't make it. We want to go later. So she wound up staying. And, like, this lady by herself
Starting point is 00:47:37 had a fucking awesome time. She was, like, dancing in the aisle, like, did not give a shit. She was, like, talking with other people. And, like, I don't know,
Starting point is 00:47:44 again, just like I was talking about seeing Stop Making Sense, like, that communal shit with, like, going to the movies, man,
Starting point is 00:47:50 like, you can't get it at home. So, like, do not tell me people don't want to go to the movies. But that is definitely stuff that is directly, like, it's one thing for stop making sense.
Starting point is 00:48:00 If you go and see, fucking apocalypse now and people are like dancing and fucking like taking photos and shit like that. Right. I might be a little bit like maybe the community part of this was not a good idea. Well no, I'm not advocating that like we enjoy movies publicly
Starting point is 00:48:15 like that all the time, you know, but like read the room. So things like people dressing up for Barbie, that's fun. Like do that. You know, people dressing up for minions. Yes. With those boys going in suits for what? I don't. I don't.
Starting point is 00:48:31 I don't know with that. Oh, right, because they're, the baby, they were like, people thought they were like serial killers or something. I was like, it's just kids being stupid and goofy. Like, what? Who cares? Like, how do you care about shit like this? Like, how do you fucking bring yourself down to that level to give a shit about a kid dressing up for a fucking cartoon? Like, really? How does it happen? The other one was, um, RRR. That was another one where it was like, this, the theatrical presentation was such an event that like, folks dancing and like also just like cheering in that movie when crazy shit happens like those videos are great like when he jumps through the they jump out of the boxes or whatever and it's him and all the animals like and you just saw like clips on TikTok or whatever people just going absolutely fucking crazy losing their minds like it's very rare that you can get that level of amped up watching stuff on your couch so anyway all this to say it was a lot of fun and if you're even remotely interested, you know, check out.
Starting point is 00:49:32 R, R, R, R. Yeah, I mean, do that too. Good movie. Now, Eric Sisko, over the weekend, you were in the bowels of PVOD and you're going to tell us about something on a little segment we call Secret Movie. Yes,
Starting point is 00:49:59 my movie should I choose to watch it this weekend was mob land oh look at that fucking cowboy hat on Travolta this just came out uh to streaming I think a week ago and it is a snoozer oh no you want to dress up for the movies put on your nightgown get your pillow out just just get your justified fits back out because that just looks like the justified poster and you want to take a crack guess how how much he's in this movie Ten minutes. A little more than that. Probably like 20, actually.
Starting point is 00:50:33 Okay. That's not really much. Sorry, but from the way you were talking last night, I would have guessed like 10 minutes are under. Like a real pulled the rug out from under us. It's a, it's a sleepy movie about a sleepy town. And he's a sleepy sheriff and he talks to people and he walks around a little bit. But the basic premise is these two guys rob a pill mill. Okay.
Starting point is 00:50:58 And they make opioids or whatever. the lead Shiloh Fernandez who is I've heard of him I could have used a little more charisma him and Kevin Dillon
Starting point is 00:51:10 is this initial Kevin Dillon looking how thin is his Kevin Dillon's like mustache or goate He looks exactly like he does in entourage but a little older
Starting point is 00:51:24 so much so that you can really see that leathery skin Like a California son ain't too kind on poor Kevin Dillon here. But he's in the movie even less. So that's fine. You've got to get out of the way with Kevin Dillon pretty early. And then the New Orleans Mafia sends an enforcer up to figure out what was going on with the pill mill played by Stephen Dorf, who steals the show. And he's actually really pretty good in the movie, given the fact that he's been given like a cliche role that is.
Starting point is 00:51:58 Is he the heavy? Is he like the ringleader? He's like the bad guy. He's like the badass. He wears all black, this, that, and the other.
Starting point is 00:52:05 But he's good in the movie for what the movie is. And, you know, I don't want to spoil it necessarily. So I won't. But. Okay.
Starting point is 00:52:14 That's good. I guess I guess I'm done talking about it. Because it's, I wouldn't really recommend it. It's kind of boring, to be honest. But if you're a Stephen Dorfhead, and if you were waiting for that dwarf asance
Starting point is 00:52:26 that never fully manifest, it's worth a spin for him alone. You thought everybody thought it was going to have, at least I thought it was going to happen with somewhere. I really was like here we go. And it deserves it. It deserved to.
Starting point is 00:52:41 And I thought it would happen with what was it? Mobland. True Detective Season 3. Thank you, Chris. Yes, true detective. He's really good in the third. Okay. Right. Very good. What is the so you mentioned the New Orleans Mafia And that leads me to ask one question, because I was ripping on Shailene Woodley and Ferrari.
Starting point is 00:53:04 What kind of accent is Travolta putting on, if any? Kind of nothing. Oh, really? Okay. Maybe there's a light affectation that I didn't really. He's not like travolta inging it up. He's not like aggressively Travolta. He's kind of like mild-mannered Travolta in this.
Starting point is 00:53:22 And he's not mild-mannered Travolta, actually. It's a nice spice. and he actually is good in the scenes he's in, but his character's kind of just whatever. Yeah. But he's not hooting and hollering, and he's not talking like foghorn, leghorn. He's kind of playing it straight.
Starting point is 00:53:40 Okay, because that's what I, you know, I see that cowboy hat. I see New Orleans Mafia being mentioned, and I just think like, I guarantee. No, no, no, Stephen Dorff's the only one that's actually from New Orleans or whatever. but he's not even doing a voice. Got it. I mean,
Starting point is 00:54:00 it's amazing to me. Sabin Films has like whatever William Sadler was holding in Demon Night that whole time, they have that for John Travolta. Like, he's just had to deal with whatever they've got like, and I don't know if it's a production contract or whatever.
Starting point is 00:54:18 It's just even hand. But every time I see one of these shitty movies, it's a saving films. And I that shitty rip off of the Wolf Wall Street he did a couple years ago was Saban films. Oh, really? I think it's Saban, by the way. Saban? Okay. They're the Power Rangers people.
Starting point is 00:54:35 Oh, yes. Okay. Oh, that makes sense. Yeah. And forever with him, they've been doing these movies. What if it was like, whatever that first movie was that he did with them and then he was like, yeah, that sucked. You know, let's get out of here. And then they were like, oh, no, John Travolta, you didn't read the fine print. You have to make
Starting point is 00:54:54 10 films with Sabah. on 25 at this i mean it's a lot but uh yeah this i don't know eric i'm glad you went to see this because i'm definitely not going to do this as much of a door fed as i am right i went to see it on my sofa you know it was a rental you could stretch out yeah you had the best seat also i'll say Travolta looks fucking great uh bald he's looking amazing yeah yes big time i wish someone had gave him, you know, that wisdom years ago.
Starting point is 00:55:30 It could have saved so many movies from these bad pieces that he's got. But who is, who is the bald man who is going to tell him that the way that Pitbull would tell him that? That is, by the way, why he did it. Yeah. Well, you know, they do it. It should have been, you know, at the time, all those years ago,
Starting point is 00:55:51 it should have been fucking Bruce Willis. You look, yeah, look, I mean, I was really, hanging by a thread with die hard with a vengeance and it was embarrassing and I just started shaving my head and I have all this confidence I'm in all these movies it's great John you got to do it too it'll change your life yeah but he probably still thought of him I mean it's back in the time when they're like actually going for the same role so he's like don't steal my gig oh that could be yeah you're you're not wrong because you know no shade to Bruce but Travolta has turned in I think
Starting point is 00:56:23 some pretty stellar performances over the years. Even in my head I would say as as far as those guys like those kinds of characters but like I mean I think to the accent thing too like I just think he got all the New Orleans Southern accent out of him with a love song for Bobby Long Oh is he doing it in that movie? You have no idea
Starting point is 00:56:47 the accent he is doing an accent that would not get past any kind of censor at this point. It is horrible. And that was like the last thing Scarlett Johansson did before she was like, oh, I'm a star. I can just do whatever I like. What was that? Who directed that movie? What is it about? I remember the title. It's just like
Starting point is 00:57:04 an indie drama that like went nowhere, like a father, daughter, reconciling kind of thing. Oh, oh. O. O. O. Yeah, not great. Not good. Total snooze. Well, Eric, I've been dancing around it, but I think you saved me a watch, my friend. I'll put it that way.
Starting point is 00:57:22 Because also I was looking at it, am I, do I have the numbers right? It's like just about two hours long. It's way too long. If it was 90 minutes, I'd probably say check it out. Yeah, oh, there we go. All right. Last couple of things to get to, gang, as we wind up on the hour here.
Starting point is 00:57:39 New segment on the program, no graphic for it yet, because I only came up with the title over the weekend, but Home Media Mania, where we'll do some disc reviews if companies send a shit in advance, we happen to get a couple of promo copies of stuff here and let's go over it really quickly. The first one, EO, finally, out on Blu-ray, my favorite film from last year, the Jersey Scolomowski movie.
Starting point is 00:58:07 I still love the poster art. Great movie. This is out now from Janice Contemporaries, they're calling it, but it's basically just the Criterion Collection with the new titles that Janice is releasing as you've probably wagered from all of our New York Film Festival coverage. Janice is buying up a lot of movies these days, which is very cool. A lot of new movies. They are distinguishing themselves now
Starting point is 00:58:34 as something other than just repertory titles, which is very exciting. So this sucker is out tomorrow. I think it's like only maybe the second of these Janus contemporaries that's released. They released a bunch of times. No Bears I know is the other big one
Starting point is 00:58:52 that I was, uh, think, but they have a couple like, I think it's already out. I think like the eight mountains are going to do. That's coming out. Yeah. Yeah. Stuff like that. Uh, but like, I mean, No Bears and Eo, those are two of my favorite movies from last year. So, um, I have big titles. Eo on in the background here. Um, but it's a pretty decent disc,
Starting point is 00:59:11 I'll say, just to like talk about the, you know, the release itself and not the movie. Um, it's got a 5-1 surround track on it. Uh, it's available on blue. and standard deaf DVD if you're still making a go with that. But I got to say a little light on, you know, supplementals and whatnot. There's a making of thing where it's Jersey talking with Eva Piazkowska, who was the writer and producer. And then there's like a featureette where it's like,
Starting point is 00:59:38 meet the donkeys. Is there any interview with the donkey, the EEO donkey, the main donkey? Can we talk about the donkey? That's what I'm saying, dude. There's a feature where you meet all of the donkeys that played EO. Oh shit, movie magic. I didn't realize. I thought it was one guy. No, no. It's like babies. Does it say the amount on here? There's like six. There's six of six. Six donkeys. My God. Six, uh, six, Sardinian donkeys. Well, I liked the movie and it fooled me. I thought it was one donkey, but it was six. Wow. And then there's just a trailer on it. So I got to say, it's very bare bones, but it looks very good. The five one is rocking on
Starting point is 01:00:19 it. Now, how were the donkeys treated on set? Do we know for sure? I would wager pretty lovingly, man. They were, like, carting those things around at least some of them anyway. Or maybe those were just different donkeys all together. But remember, like, there were, like, press junkins and shit where, like,
Starting point is 01:00:34 it was like Jersey standing, like, next to a donkey. Like, oh, look at the, look at Eo. His favorite of Eos. And, yeah, they got the best carrots. We're past the dark ages, Eric. Oh, yeah. You film the one donkey. Then you're going to move on to the next donkey. then you eat that donkey.
Starting point is 01:00:52 This is the Cisco system of a donkey. It's a Polish movie on Polish. That's what they do. They eat the donkey. You have the next donkey eat some of the previous donkey so that by the time you get to the sixth donkey, it's like a super donkey.
Starting point is 01:01:07 Yeah. I got the spirit in them. I think that's what you were going for. Yeah. Ravenous, but with donkeys. Ooh, that's a movie. Oh, hell yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:18 Yeah, so I would recommend picking this up. Now, the other one, much more in the spirit of the season out from Lionsgate. There's a Best Buy exclusive of the Wicker Man in a steel book, the original Wicker Man, 50th anniversary re-release of the film. Nice art on that. Yes, there's a cool, like, let's see, slip cover to it too that, like kind of glides off and there's like separate art on that. I mean, this whole thing, these steelbook things, sometimes you're kind of like,
Starting point is 01:01:49 whatever, like, the Goodfellas one, I think, kind of sucked. But, like, this is, it's gorgeous. So, like, from that standpoint, too, if you're into that part of physical media collecting, like the guy talking right now, you know, this kind of shit is pretty rad. And I got to say, it looks absolutely great. It's got a really solid mono soundtrack. Now, the weird thing about it, though, is, like, the, it's like this final cut, which is about
Starting point is 01:02:17 I think it's like maybe a few minutes sure I can't remember which way now it might be shorter than the theatrical but the theatrical is not in this set which is weird it's just this final cut yeah so what is the difference between that it almost sounds like when you know Blade Runner hit
Starting point is 01:02:34 you know physical media again they basically just sold that final cut version I think yes that was for a while you could only get like Blade Runner the final cut And I think eventually they did all of them in one. Right. I do have that. That I have. That I have. Yeah. But this thing, it's also out tomorrow. The cool thing about it, I will say, it's chock full of supplemental stuff, including a thing that I'm such a sucker for. Like, where is the location now?
Starting point is 01:03:08 Like they go back to filming locations, check out, you know, how it's looking. There's some like old conversations. There's a Robin Hardy interview from 2013. There's a thing from, what year was it? Oh, it's 1979. It's Robin Hardy and Christopher Lee on some TV show, I think. So it's packed with stuff. No commentaries or anything, but it's a really gorgeous
Starting point is 01:03:29 looking release, really solid mono soundtrack. So I would 100% pick that up if you're a fan of that movie. I believe it is indeed a Best Buy exclusive. You know, I actually picked up my first steel book recently never got one of these guys before scream six and uh steel book yeah it's it's got really great uh art it's very the subway is all over that uh steel book so it's kind of a cool that's cool yeah and i had no idea they were so nicely packaged these steel books so i want
Starting point is 01:04:03 to get into them yeah it's a it's a pretty sweet thing you know there's often like you know alternate art and things like that especially i mean we were just talking about it uh i think on our Exorcist We Love Movies episode that's out now on Patreon as we start rounding out the program here and plugging things we go on a rant on that episode about just the absolute
Starting point is 01:04:24 awful cover art that's on the 4K release of that film. Not good. Really heinous shit so like this you know like steelbook stuff is kind of oftentimes the opposite of that it's like it's alternate poster art
Starting point is 01:04:41 that's actually kind of well done or funny or depending upon the movie. But yes, released last weekend, in case you missed it, Exorcist, we love movies out now on Patreon. Hell yeah, as we still try to
Starting point is 01:04:57 wash the stink off of the Exorcist believer. Instead, we talked about a good movie and it's a big correct me if I'm wrong, this is a big honker, right? This is like a two hour two and a half hour episode. Yeah, it's a big boy. Yeah, it's like maybe two,
Starting point is 01:05:12 20 or something like that but yeah it's a big one and out also last week if you missed it folks it dropped on Friday animation damnation all about corn coming to South Park I was trying to think of the
Starting point is 01:05:27 Halloween the Stravaganza or something like that whatever the fuck it's groovy groovy there it is groovy Halloween whatever the point is talking about that episode of South Park really great going back to you know, nearly 25
Starting point is 01:05:43 years ago you know our histories with South Park how we haven't watched it in like 15 years or at least I hadn't. Yes, and of course we get some stuff wrong
Starting point is 01:05:55 but we're all a little wrong aren't we folks? Oh, did we, did someone tell us we got something wrong? Ripped from the headline stuff prior to around 9-11 so. Oh, yes, I did see someone
Starting point is 01:06:08 said that. I forget what the episode was. If people were out there correcting the record, but, you know, you got to do it. It was still an interesting re-evaluation of South Park. I hadn't seen it for so long. And I had more laughs than I expected.
Starting point is 01:06:20 I enjoyed it enough. Folks, I'm fine with it. I laughed almost as much as I did watch an Exorcist believer. But as it is Monday here on the program, our week is just getting started in the WHMU. Tomorrow, the Sputacular continues with an all new episode, us talking about Lance Henriksen in Pumpkinhead. this was a fun
