Bass.
Philippe says it's
1 o'clock where he is. Nice.
Good to know. I'm fascinated with time
differences, y'all. We got a lot to get to
today, so I will stop
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,
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
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
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
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
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
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,
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,
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.
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?
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.
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
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,
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
$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
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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,
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.
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
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
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
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
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
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.
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,
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.
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
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
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
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
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
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
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.
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
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
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.
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
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
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.
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
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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,
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
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
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
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
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
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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
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.
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.
Oh, boy.
Do you see the writing credit?
Go for it, dude.
Yeah.
Kurt Vimmer.
Oh, that's right.
Yep.
Air Vimmer.
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,
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,
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.
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.
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,
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.
Oh, Miramax.
Dude, this, like, it's a, some sort of media company now.
Imagine not changing that name.
You have to change that name. It's named after the fucking
monster's grandparents or parents or something.
Parents, yeah. Uh-oh.
Oh, boy.
So I believe this is Felicia Rashad.
Uh, getting grifted here by like,
I don't know
telemarketer type shit
oh I hope so
is just have we found
is Patrick in here?
I jeez I don't know man
wow
we get some of nails here
oh yeah
so he is burning down
this telemarketer off
this is what's happening
sure it's good
I like it's not bad
is the only thing you know
Is that Jeremy Irons?
It's irons, dude.
Oh, no.
He's like the heavy.
Oh, boy.
So he blew up a telemarketing office.
Many drivers in it?
Yeah, many driver.
Jesus.
Oh, you should take on another scam company out there, MGM.
Well, do you see what's going on here?
Like, this telemarketing scheme?
That's just the ground floor, man.
He's taking this all the way to the top.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Wow.
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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
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
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
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
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.
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
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
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.
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
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
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
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,
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
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
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.
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
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
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
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
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
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
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.
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,
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
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
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,
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
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.
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
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?
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.
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.
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
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.
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,
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.
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,
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
IMDB.
You're goofs.
Listen to this.
Taylor's
hair position
changes between shots
throughout the whole film
over the shoulder
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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.
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
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
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
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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
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,
again,
just like I was talking about
seeing Stop Making Sense,
like,
that communal shit with,
like,
going to the movies,
man,
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.
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
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.
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.
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,
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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,
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.
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.
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
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.
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,
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
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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,
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,
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
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,
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.
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.
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.
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,
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
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
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?
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
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
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
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
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
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,
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
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
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
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
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.
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
ass episode to do. It was fun to
revisit Pumpkinhead
the only worthwhile
Stan Winston
directorial effort. Yeah.
And it will be out tomorrow
on the main feed with commercials, but just a reminder
gang, if you don't like that stuff,
head over to the Patreon.
Add free We Hate Movies at the $8 level
and up.
So that's going on. Now, Thursday,
so much stuff to get to this week, you guys.
Thursday, Eric, the
Gleap Glossary is dropping.
Who are we talking about there?
Geth Zerian, who is a witch
Knight's sister.
We talk a little bit about Assoca in this
since they played a factor in
the later episodes of that first season.
And it's a lot of fun, folks.
Get into the Gleap Glossary, if you haven't.
Don't let the Star Wars shit hold you back
because we treat, we mop the floor
with those guys. We treated like trash.
You don't have to love Star Wars.
And then finally on Friday, we're going to be dropping this month's Melro 210 where 90210, Donna and Brenda are still in Paris, and Donna is almost becoming the plot of a taken film through a seedy modeling contract while the gang back home gets into a hot and heavy volleyball tournament.
And Melrose plays a lot of wacky shit going on there. Michael addicted to pills.
uh jane getting a restraining order you know guys guys you know just this this is a this is a real fun episode of melro 2 and now and it's funny because steve is in paris right now that's right so we should be playing volleyball it's true so you want to do that after this should we be doing volleyball yeah i think we'll wrap it up here and go get a couple rounds in okay um so that is going to do it for this week gang now just as a programming note uh next week no on screen lines
