And in that time right now, I'm going to attempt to jam in every single tour date we have coming up for you fine folks around the world and in some states of the United variety. All right, so here we go. We're going to put in the theme song and see if I can do this. Three, two, one, go. All right. So let's see.

Starting point is 00:01:13 Hey, I did it. Pretty cool, eh, Ernest Borgne? Cool, man. Woo-hoo! Please listen carefully for a very important We Hate Movies Related Announcement
Starting point is 00:01:28 Holy smokes It's listener request month folks New listeners are like What? And old listeners are like Yeah Well what is listener request month
Starting point is 00:01:40 It's that one time of year Where you tell us what to watch So like every year We're going to open up the WHM request line And it's up to you to program Our entire March calendar All right The way it works is you dial
Starting point is 00:01:53 18333 946, 4264, or, in an easier, more fun way, 1-833 W-H-M gang, and leave us a brief message, brief message about one movie you'd like us to cover. Be sure to include your name and where you're calling from to be eligible, and that's one movie per call. And it calls asking for more than one are disqualified folks. We will throw that in the trash so fast. So what's eligible to be called in. Nearly everything. The 10-year rule, which only kind of exists now anyway, is off the table. We just needed to be streaming somewhere so that us and, you know, your fellow audience members can find it. We're not buying $90 VHS tapes on eBay, folks. Well, maybe Steve is,
Starting point is 00:02:40 but the rest of us definitely aren't. So make sure your request is somewhere digital. And just to be clear, the phone lines are open for We Hate Movies Entries Only, so it's got to fit that vague parameter of a we hate movies title, all right? Also, there's a couple of movies like the room and Bermic, things like that that we're just not going to do, so do not bother. Hey, also, Patreon friends, our loyal kick-ass Patreon subscribers, we'd never forget you all. You get to email us directly with your picks for Patreon selections. Email WHM requests at gmail.com. That's WHM requests, plural, WHM requests at gmail.com. Now, what can you request stuff for?
Starting point is 00:03:20 Here we go. A we love movies episode, all right? These are available at the $5 level and up. That's a movie that you love and you think we'll also love and would be able to make a fun, two-ish hour chat out of, okay? Same deal as the WHM requirements, you know, need to find it somewhere, yada, yada, though let's be smart about it, gang. Leave the incredibly challenging atrocity films like Zone of Interest for a less goofy podcast.
Starting point is 00:03:43 kind of hard to make scenes of people sifting through the items of the recently murdered funny, you know what I mean? Look at the We Love Movies back catalog list on our website, WHMpodcast.com, if you want to get some inspiration, all right? Now for animation, damnation, that's the $3 level on up, folks, we're going to need the name of a 30-ish minute cartoon and the specific episode, very important, specific episode that you want us to talk about as well as where we can find it. If it's streaming, let us know where. And if it's on YouTube or somewhere else like that, just include the link. in your email. No feature film requests, folks. These are 30-ish minute cartoons only, all right? Nexus episodes, that's at our $8 level and up. That's right. We're opening up to any and all episodes of Star Trek TNG, Deep Space 9, Voyager, Enterprise, or Strange New Worlds. That's exciting,
Starting point is 00:04:30 right? Look, we're leaving out TOS because we're just about done with TOS episodes on the actual run of the Nexus, so no point in doing that. And also, yes, we added in Strange New Worlds because it's episodic. I've seen all of it. The guys won't be lost. So I know there's a bunch of Strangy World episodes. I'd love to have the guys watch and talk about, too. So feel free to write those in.
Starting point is 00:04:50 We just need the name of the show and the episode you'd like to be covered. The Star Wars Gleap Glossary, of course, also at the $8 level and up. If you have a fun Star Wars character, you always wanted to hear us riff on, let us know. Shoot us an email of the character in question and we'll look into it. We've done a lot of Gleap Glossary's entries over the years, though, all right, so be sure you double check. We haven't covered your character yet because otherwise, It's a waste of your time. For all the above, by the way, please send us one email per request.
Starting point is 00:05:15 We've got to keep this as organized as possible, and this is the only way to do it, one email per request. So if you want to request something for each of the four sideshows, that's four separate emails with subject lines that let us know what you're requesting. Make it easy on us, please. Again, any emails that double up, they're getting chucked in the bin, all right? We've got to keep it organized. Lastly, sorry, no request will be taken for Melrode 2 and O.
Starting point is 00:05:37 We've got to go in order there, gang. absolutely no way we'd be able to navigate those insane waters at random, okay? Also, as always, include your name and where you're writing in from in those emails. We're not going to read your email address on the aerodoxy or anything. We'd just like to give you credit for the request. Starting January the 16th, which is right now and ending 1159 Eastern Standard Time on January the 31st.

What is going on? One and all, welcome to the triumphant return of on screen live. My name is Andrew Jupin. I'm going in three buds. We're going to talk over the weekend box office, paltry as it is. And we're also going to review a bunch of shit that we've been watching
Starting point is 00:07:17 that's like new adjacent, but hey, you know, we've been on break for a while, so what are you going to do? But let me bring in these buds right now. First up, straight from the new goon cave. Eric Siska. I've been gooning since we've been off the air. Every Monday at noon, I start the goon
Starting point is 00:07:33 session here. Excellent, dude. But now I have to do this. Yeah, well, sorry about that. Well, we'll try to find some off weeks so you can charge back. Thank you. I'd appreciate it. Next up, you know him, you love him. The librarian himself, Mr. Chris Cabin. And that's when I told Ian Curtis to blow it out your ass.
Starting point is 00:07:51 Yes, we were at a KFC at the time and it didn't matter because the guy behind the counter had, of course, escaped through the back. I went back there. I took it to the soda fountain and I started throwing sodas at Ian Curtis. Who is this? Who wrote this book? Excuse me? Oh, oh, hi.
Starting point is 00:08:09 this is Mark E. Smith, of course, of the fall. Oh, got it. Yeah. I'm glad the book fair got to Connecticut in time for this one. Oh, no. I've had that one for a while. One of my favorite bands, the fall. Oh, I see. I thought it was a Jarvis Cocker for a second on the cover there. I mean, he
Starting point is 00:08:25 does have that kind of look, I guess, on the cover. He's looking a little swaggy on that one, I guess. That's right. That's right. And hey, making his triumphant return, we have reanimated his lifeless body. Please welcome back to the program and the WHMU at large, Mr. Stephen Sadek.
Starting point is 00:08:43 Hey, everybody. How's it going? Yeah, Steve lives indeed. I am so glad it worked out. We found your body in the river and we put your baby's brain inside of it. Yes, here you are. Yes. I'm horny as hell. I'm so fucking horny guys. I was chasing that cute little duck dog, dude. Yeah. Yeah, I didn't like that movie. I'll probably never watch it again. Yeah. Pretty indifferent to it. I'm not going to complain about all the male and female nudity, of course. No, certainly not. And I mean, Emma Stone deserves a reward.
Starting point is 00:09:15 Yeah, you know, I had a little surgery. Still got most of a toes. Now, a little surgery where... Did you sell them? Did you sell them? I have not... I've just started to, like, walk outside and stuff, which is sort of exciting. Nice.
Starting point is 00:09:30 This is a new thing. Definitely sitting on a surgery donut, so don't worry about that. Oh, man. You got to do it, dude. Mm-hmm. You got to do it. But we got so many people welcoming you back, dude, in the chat. We got Kate G.
Starting point is 00:09:46 Knowledge Junkie, Will Plock. That's nice. Lane of 10. Welcome everybody. Nico Fish, Mals G. Jen Stansfield. Hello, everybody in the chat. Welcome back to the chat.
Starting point is 00:10:01 Is this an old man sweater or a robe you're rocking here? This is an old man's sweater. Okay. Yeah, I was going to say, Chris, it looks like you stole it from the hospital. To quote, to quote, dumb and dumber, it's a cardigan, but thanks for noticing. Of course. Very nice. It looks me.
Starting point is 00:10:20 All right, dudes, we got a lot to get to you today, a lot of ins and outs and what-hav-hues, as it were. Talk about some movies and TV. We've been watching and whatnot. But, yeah, let's talk about the weekend numbers. We're in that January pit of despair. This is highest gross. All right. Yeah, so this is, you know, the bad lands of January, you guys.
Starting point is 00:10:53 Not a lot going on with regard to ticket transactions. Let's put it that way. The bad days. Y'all are nothing days. The migration days. It's the migration days. here, man. Number five.
Starting point is 00:11:09 Are those little rubber duckies characters? Are they like minions in this thing? No, I think it's just kind of a goof maybe. Just a funny little poster. Once we do it, I'm probably never going to see this movie unless, and again, maybe my nephews will drag me to it. But I will say, just from the ad campaigns and all sorts of cross-promotion, I find those ducks charming.
Starting point is 00:11:28 So there you go. I do, I do too. Wow, you guys sound like my mother with happy feet. And that came out. She's like, they're charming. Well, that's a thing. they were charming. Charming birds have becoming animated staple. Birds really are a big thing. That also is
Starting point is 00:11:44 just them ripping off a toy story. Yes. Yes. Sitting with all the alien guys. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, that shaved nutsacks with fucking glasses on the go, baby, baby, babies, biz, biz. Yeah, I don't like those. Some of those minions are also unshaved nutsacks just by the way. Right. That's good. At least with birds, I don't have to think about what their genitalia is like. You know it. You know it. I know it. I know it
Starting point is 00:12:08 in and out. There's YouTube channels that are just dedicated to it. Is that right? There are. They are. Hit me up with that link. I will say not me, but little kids in my family. Two little thumbs up to that movie. Oh, there you go.
Starting point is 00:12:24 That's fun. One of my nieces and my nephew went and saw it, enjoyed it. We're looking here. Week 6, we've accumulated 95 million at the U.S. box office 192 globally. This little guy. doing just all right you remember like when i mean like this is very much me looking back at this point i don't even think it's nostalgia but it's just weird now yeah like when we're growing
Starting point is 00:12:47 up the fucking january like you didn't notice these movies because people were still seeing all the movies that were like yeah to make the awards thing exactly and like i it has all that just gone so quickly to streaming that it doesn't matter yes probably that seems like what happened yeah i mean i'd say also like just based upon like where we live you know we're seeing a lot of that stuff kind of ahead of the wider releases anyway so maybe now just like purely like geographically we don't go see these movies as you know because we've already seen them i guess but to christ's point it's not making the box out you know what i mean if middle america was just introduced to say poor things or
Starting point is 00:13:29 i don't know right yeah i mean i guess it's just it's not a year that has that really at least Oppenheimer is back in IMAX and selling out shows. Check at our episode on it. That's, I mean, probably the two biggest Oscar frontrunners made the most money, which are Barbie and Oppenheimer in July, you know, so that's, yeah,
Starting point is 00:13:51 I'm kind of looking farther down the list here, because, you know, we only do the top five here on highest gross. But, yeah, I mean, like poor things was at 10, you know,
Starting point is 00:13:59 so people are kind of coming out with that. Iron Claw, which is getting no award chatter really. It was fucking nuts that that movie It's crazy. It's not by the century. It is fucking crazy.
Starting point is 00:14:11 I think it's like that I watched it over our little break here. I enjoyed it very much. I think Zach went a little too hard with it. He looks like a freak now. So I think it's like he's huge, dude. Isn't it crazy how big is in that movie? I think he's great in that movie. He's fantastic.
Starting point is 00:14:25 I'm not saying he's bad. I'm just saying he's off putting. It's unsettling to look at. No, you're absolutely correct. Even Jeremy Allen White thought so. Oh, yeah. I mean, I think they're all good. I just,
Starting point is 00:14:35 it's such like one of those straight drama things like I guess Oppenheimer's giving people that but like to me I'm like that's just so like quickly to me like what a voting body would want just a straight trauma done very well I think to your point though also dude it is something about like what's being released when like with Barbie and Oppenheimer uh over over the summer and Killers of the Flower Moon was like late October and then super early November but like I think one of the reasons we're not talking about as much one of the movies that I think they sort of positioned it Christmas time and then it'll expand
Starting point is 00:15:08 and it'll be this huge hit. It's the color purple. Yeah. And that, you know, I think you could see Warner Brothers thinking like this will be a ton of nomination. It's got some attention, but not I think the ton that would have taken it into January being like a real box office banger.
Starting point is 00:15:24 It's an interesting movie, but that was never going to make a war. No, no, no, no. But you can totally see how they would think in their frame, but that's just so. crazy to me to be like, yeah, of course, this thing, this, there's a musical that are, they're doing so well right now and everybody
Starting point is 00:15:40 has so much right now. Wait a minute, what are you talking about, though? Like the Spielberg West Side story was rife with nominations. The box office right now is a musical, isn't it? Is it? Me and girls. But yeah, in January, Eric, I mean, it doesn't count. And so, isn't Wonka musical as well?
Starting point is 00:15:57 Am I wrong? Yes, it's terrible. That's like a full, straight on musical Wonka? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. They do whole asides with it. twirlings. Oh, jeez. Okay. Well, that'll be on pay-per-view in this house. Not going to the theater for Wanka.
Starting point is 00:16:12 Anyway, in it number four, anyone but you starring movie star Glenn Powell and piece of sentient sheetrock Sidney I don't care for her. I didn't even know this was out. I didn't know what this is, but I'm happy those young people
Starting point is 00:16:28 are doing their thing. It's a rom-com dude. It's a straight-up, like two people who don't like each other have to do this whole farce and pretend that they're engaged to make their exes jealous yada i will remember this movie only for the nathan fielder emma stone uh absolutely brutal takedown of the of the cutesy trailer that they put out which was oh really oh i missed that they put out a cutesy trailer when this movie came out and it's like the two of them being like come to see my movie and then like and then cidisweeney's like don't you mean my movie and then the next day for
Starting point is 00:17:02 the keep, for the curse rather, the Emma Stone and Nathan Fielder did the exact same thing like oh, man, and it was like absolutely brutal. It was just, it was so uncomfortable to watch that I loved it so much. That's incredible. And I think Sidney
Starting point is 00:17:18 might be your classic really good looking character actor. And I think that she needs to get out of lead role. Like I think she's great in reality. He is really good in reality. Like she's not a bad act. It's just like again, like they put her in these movies and shows that like, I'm not, I don't care about.
Starting point is 00:17:34 Somebody probably really likes her in euphoria. I don't. You're saying, she's great. I just, I personally, like, I made that joke. So I'll just say, like, in everything that I've seen her in, I find it the exact same note. And that's not interesting to me. But maybe in 30 years, she'll be like a Jennifer Coolidge and everyone will love her.
Starting point is 00:17:53 I really do. I think that she's got a character actress kind of vibe to her, but she's really good looking. So they're like, you're a lead. It's like, is she really? The annoying thing about it was they also tried to like kind of like AstroTurf the idea of this movie because there was like shots of them like making cutesy eyes behind the scenes of making this before the movie ever came out. It was just like, oh my God, they have so much chemistry. They're looking at each other.
Starting point is 00:18:21 There's two attractive people who are looking at each other. That sounds fun. I want to watch that. Sure. Well, it's in theaters right now, Eric. Well, it is. It did $5.4 million this weekend. And, you know, it's done 64 million here and 100 globally.
Starting point is 00:18:36 I mean, it's not nothing. I appreciate that movies like this are out in theaters. So, you know, for what it's worth, I'm glad that it's there. All right, here we go. Moving right along. News to me that this was a musical Wonka, which so that reminds me, though, both Wonka and Mean Girls, we are doing this thing where we're scared of like being out and proud about our musical and we're cutting
Starting point is 00:19:02 trailers without the musical numbers in them? You're right. Yeah, they're hiding it. What the fuck are you doing? But that just speaks to what I'm talking about, like, they clearly know that people aren't like flocking to these things, even though they're doing okay in a January box office, sure. But like,
Starting point is 00:19:19 why wouldn't you put that for it? Like, if Wonka is a musical, which it is, like, why wouldn't you put it that way? Because they're scared of it. They're like, they think audiences are going to make fun of it and shit. The funny one about that though for me is Mean Girls, both actually Mean Girls and Color Purple
Starting point is 00:19:37 Because both are very known and successful stage musicals It wasn't a fucking secret What are you doing trying to trick somebody into thinking They just remade Mean Girls? They did that. Remade Color Purple? I think they did that Didn't they just release a musical version of Waitress?
Starting point is 00:19:56 Yes. No, it was a filmed from It was from the Broadway. Broadway version? Okay. Yes. Yes. I don't know. Yeah, yeah. I thought for a minute was they had done the same thing like with Mean Girls, but with Waitress. No, no, no, no, no. I mean, Mean Girls is a, it's a movie musical. Yeah, yeah. The Wait, the Waitress thing. Someone in the chat correct me if I'm wrong, but I feel like I would have known about this. It is just we filmed a stage production, like a production of the musical, which is a good music. I kind of would rather have that than like trying to make it a movie around. yeah yeah but that's that just that only gets released on fathom events eric so you want to release it on
Starting point is 00:20:36 major you know right theaters so you have to be like it's a movie right right yeah yeah 20% new footage yeah uh so yeah wonka 6.5 mil look at these numbers though uh 187 million in the u.s 532 globally and this thing only cost $125 million so it's a timmy hit timmy's got a hit there you Timmy hit. Timmy hit. All right. We'll be talking about. We call it a Timby hit. Well, you know, maybe it's good that we move
Starting point is 00:21:06 Dune until this next, into this new year because you can't have these two Timmy hits hit in each other. Actually, that's true. Because Timmy Hips going to time cop itself. Like, and then, then it's, then no one is a Timmy Hits. Two Timmy Hits cannot occupy the same weekend. That is the idea. And hey, Wanka, lay off the fucking chocolate bars.
Starting point is 00:21:25 All right. So here we'll be talking about this one. little more in a second. But the David A or Bkeeper was in its second week here from MGM. We're looking at 8.4 mil. And this is, you know, it was an okay, 49% drop, not too shabby for week to 31 million here, 75 around the globe. Had I not been medically unable, I definitely would have saw this this weekend, because the trailer looks so ridiculous. I was medically able and I didn't see. I kind of wish I did because I think it's cool that an action movie is number two right now. We are going to talk about it, but I do think
Starting point is 00:21:59 the number one thing it does is it sets up very well a direct TV, a VOD action series franchise. Scott Atkins or anybody else can just be dropped right into. You are completely right, Chris. And it's like, what's the one? Sniper, wasn't that?
Starting point is 00:22:17 It was a Mark Wahlberg movie and then we went like John Sina and the lower. Marine also does that. Maybe that's what I'm thinking of with John Sina. That's one. The Marine. all of yes it just happens all all the time now it's because this is just like insert new person to play titular be so do you think john cusack is going to find himself uh on the on the receiving end of the beekeeper at some he's going to get beekeeper most definitely i would say scottkins is in line for a beekeeping of his own i mean knowing john cusack he would want to play i mean maybe he would like you know gnaw down on some real like ghastly villain role yeah but i feel like he would want to be like the tech man for the
Starting point is 00:22:59 oh yeah he would want to be on the side of the beekeeper I feel you would sub in Cusack for the Jeremy Irons character yeah yes get yeah get him like so like key Cusack's like an older like managerial kind of thing anyway more on that in a minute but the mean
Starting point is 00:23:15 girls musical which is indeed a movie musical and not a filmed production of the stage musical was number one for the second week in a row and we're looking at 11.7 we've got mean girls fever and I want to announce something here because I need money desperately. I have. Check this out. And I've been, I'm so
Starting point is 00:23:33 old, I was working in entertainment when the original mean girls came out. Wow. This is who liked it off of TV? No, this is an actual screener copy. This is from late night with Conan O'Brien. This is Conan O'Brien's actual personal viewer here of a screener here. When you put it on, it says Conan O'Brien on it so that they know who leaked it if it came out. That's right.
Starting point is 00:23:57 for and I nicked it when he wasn't looking. So $1,000, hit me up. Mean Girl fever is going next. Conan O'Brien's screener, Chris. It's available to on the Mingol aficionados. I know, but do you have any O.J. memorabilia back there, too? Did you just hoarding? Do you have a buyer that's also O.J.?
Starting point is 00:24:16 He doesn't have any of those crummy crumbies, Chris. He's only got the pretty pretties. He's a guy that's great screeners. I unfortunately was rejected for the O.J. Simpson internship. Instead, I had to get coffee for Conan O'Brien. I'm sorry. Nevada would have embraced you with open art.
Starting point is 00:24:31 Direct message me on Twitter, Instagram, let's move this tape. Let's get me to repair this window. I think I didn't get something on. If you put that on eBay for something, I don't think a thousand, maybe like a hundred bucks
Starting point is 00:24:43 and put a bidding war. I think you'd probably get up to 300 bucks. Would you have to like prove in some way? Oh, what says it on it, of course. That's the proof. You're right. You're right.
Starting point is 00:24:53 Yeah. I mean, unsigned. That's a real shame. It is unsigned, but remember, it's 2000. It's a mint condition. Look at this. Very little wear on this. And it's a Memorex.
Starting point is 00:25:06 That's it. That was a good brand when it existed. Do we have the, like, selling jewelry on TV music? This is reasonable. But next week, when you try and sell that patio set, we are going to mute your mic. But it's just, like, I do have this.
Starting point is 00:25:22 This is related to what we were talking about, so it's fine. But patio furniture is a fridge, move that patio stuff. The old people left it here and I got my, I want to do something new. That will be next week. No, we're not talking about night swim just so you can talk about your patio. We'll do lawn chair
Starting point is 00:25:39 by lawn chair next week. Get ready for the spring season. You're going to do a lot of outdoor entertaining. I did. Speaking of night swim, Chris, I was curious because this weekend I love just, you know, again, we're, I wasn't leaving the house. And I was looking for
Starting point is 00:25:55 you know, just anything that new VOD stuff, and I had the thought and I tweeted it too just whatever happened to the January horror movie where is my bye bye man where is my escape room or end or escape room
Starting point is 00:26:07 I'm champion there is one it's not good though is it night swim is that the no it's called Founders Day oh yes I've heard of that
Starting point is 00:26:16 it sounds it's a slasher it's an actual slash but I guess the move is because horror actually does well now it's out of the January slot so you would release
Starting point is 00:26:25 those in March and beyond. Even your bye-bye man might have gotten a March release date in the year of our Lord 2024. Yeah, I guess that's entirely possible.
Starting point is 00:26:36 But I mean, like, that's the interesting thing is like people, things can kind of make money all over the place now. Yeah. Like, so, yeah,
Starting point is 00:26:44 I mean, I would say one that's out, Steve, it's on the horror comedy side of things. Not a theatrical release, though. That's another thing. We have the advent of shutters.
Starting point is 00:26:53 So like, destroy all neighbors. Okay. with Joan Ruey Rodriguez and Alex Winter, it's a trip. It's fucking wacky as balls, but it's like something of note. Anyway, speaking of Mean Girl Fever, Eric, maybe with regard to your eBay
Starting point is 00:27:08 listing, but not so much with this movie. Only 66 million globally and 50 million here in the U.S. This was supposed to be a Paramount Plus exclusive title. And now how well it's doing it. You can own a piece of history. That's right, ladies and gentlemen.
Starting point is 00:27:22 Could you show us the front of the tape itself? it's just black. It's just, yeah. Also, Conan didn't get through much of the movie there. No, Eric Siska didn't get through much of the movie there. So other than that, it is pristine. After this marker, that's Conan Eyes only right there.
Starting point is 00:27:39 Yeah, I mean, that's a... I mean, that's what he watched. I'm waiting for you to have to prove that the Conan stamp is on there, putting it in a VCR, pressing play, and it eats it right now. Eric, this is pristine. No one's going to eat this, take. I'm excited for this, Eric Siska. Even lower stakes, can you ever forgive me?
Starting point is 00:27:56 It's somehow, it's just somehow an even lower stakes in the middle of McCarthy can play you. That'd be great. Yeah, perfect. Oh, there we go. There are Conan collectors out there, you know, Eric. You should just contact them. I actually have pieces of the set.
Starting point is 00:28:09 I've got a lot. We'll talk later. Hey, but speaking of us talking later, we're going to be talking later on February the 1st, which is a week from this Thursday.

Starting point is 00:33:40 I want that to be also very clear this has been an issue before I and I also a message to the terminally nervous and anxious and depressed just call and say the say your name say the movie you want done say goodbye it's not a big deal I swear to God it's very easy I do I go through the calls I always find it incredibly endearing when someone's got a long script where there's like and they just fuck it up and it's just like yeah I wanted to request the beekeeper because Jason Statham's a fuck right yeah I want to call it the bee keep because Jason Statham needs to be stung by
Starting point is 00:34:16 a bunch of fucking bees and it's like it's fine either way it's fine it's kind of like the we hate movies equivalent of that Winnebago man video it is oh my god I have so many of those oh that is so great good movie good we will not put on if you say fuck
Starting point is 00:34:34 or something and eject your call we will not screen it for everybody and cursing is okay oh yeah I mean come on we're not going to tell you not to curse mm-hmm That would be wrong. So yes, WHM requests at gmail.com for all those Patreon requests. And 1-833 W-H-M gang for the We Hate Movies Listener Request Month.
Starting point is 00:34:58 I'm excited. We've been getting calls in. I'm excited. It's coming right up. Yeah. All right. Now I'm looking at the chat. There's nothing wrong with writing your script.
Starting point is 00:35:06 I'm glad that you do. And I want your calls. I want your calls. I just don't, I want to hear that shaky piece of paper while you, why you read it. No, all we're saying is, all we're saying is, look, there's enough to deal with. There's enough everybody's got to deal with every day. You don't need to put the added pressure on yourself, baby. It's all right.
Starting point is 00:35:24 Don't sweat it. There we go. We're moderately successful podcasters. It's not that big of a deal. Look at Steve. He's barely alive. I'm barely alive. Look at this.
Starting point is 00:35:36 It's fine. Are you at home sitting on a medically, uh, sanctioned ass pillow? If not, you're doing much better than me. Probably not. All right in. Don't worry about it. None of Jason Statham's victims and the beekeeper need to ask pillows because they're all dead in the new one from David Ayer.
Starting point is 00:35:55 So is it just me and you, Chris, on this one, right? I think so. I did not get to. I wanted to get to it, but I unfortunately did not. Yeah, that's fine. So Chris Cabin, what are your thoughts here on the beekeeper, my friend? I mean, it's a David Ayer joint, so it is bad. It is what he comes. he always brings it it's always going to be bad uh but and that's i i say that with a little
Starting point is 00:36:19 tragedy to it because i do think the guys got some style like there's like parts of this movie that do work uh a lot of the action does work pretty much it's cut to shit it's not edited very well uh and you would think now in the age of like post scott atkins choreography you know good fight choreography is now a must in the john wick slash scott actens world but like it's still really not that well done in this it's better than usual better than usual with the jason statham movie but yeah when i'm watching i just got done with john wick part four man the bar has been lifted you no longer like get away with half doing it i think and like i just also watched um eric i think you've seen uh the one shot and one more shot i saw i saw one shot i did not
Starting point is 00:37:08 see the sequel yet it it just it to me it's so basic like oh you can just do it this and make it look good. You don't have to fuss too much. It's pretty easy to do it. And like now I'm just kind of like, well, you cut away from like all the good movement. I don't know. What's the only thing about one shot is just a quick digression is that
Starting point is 00:37:26 Ryan Philippe's in it. You know, that's kind of surprising. That's where he's been. He's now doing Scott Atkins' movies. He's got a little Empire's Secret movies. He's been getting there. But anyway, back to Beekeeper. Like the story, I
Starting point is 00:37:43 just was kind of like this is fine but like if you're going to have this antic world like it feels like they did a half step of something like um like smoking aces where there's a bunch of like characters that come out by the sun that are like crazy and just trying to kill someone like yeah and like i was like okay and then like it comes it like pulls it back immediately and like it keeps doing that herky jerky thing where it can't decide does it just want to be a crazy action movie or is it trying to be somewhat serious like a John Wick where there's like lore that we care
Starting point is 00:38:18 about. They are trying to have it both and also like we're kind of saying something Oh wow. Okay. Nobody needs to be saying nothing in the BKer and it would be totally totally fine. I mean I think like look there's obviously
Starting point is 00:38:34 like levels of shit and I don't think every movie is going to try to you know should try to top John Wick type stuff. That's why John Wick is John Wick. So I don't know. I found the fighting better than your average Statham movie.
Starting point is 00:38:50 It has a lot of fucking really silly brutality with him going around killing these people. I was probably annoying guy in the theater if anyone was in my screening at Union Square because I was howling, howling laughing at the way he's killing some of these people. Let me ask you know, this is how you rate action movies, Chris. Is it better than expendables four?
Starting point is 00:39:14 What? That's the thing. Anything above expendables four is okay. Yes, that's a three stuff. Everything above that, that is a healthy three star fellow. No, flag on the play. No. Bekeeper is a is a healthy three star in my opinion.
Starting point is 00:39:32 I'll say though, I want an air cut of my own, but this air cut just removes the absolutely useless FBI characters who are like, 30 minutes behind the fucking movie every step of the way and like the whole thing is like Statham is getting revenge for Felicia Rashad's character committing suicide because she gets fucking
Starting point is 00:39:53 scammed and all her money goes away and the one of the FBI agents the character is the daughter of Felicia Rashad so that's why they keep it in the movie it's so awful it's so just it's pulling the emergency break on a subway train is Pat Pespus in it does he go to
Starting point is 00:40:11 the beekeeper like go get a beekeeper don't tease me don't tease me i would like that that's something i would like that's this is stuff i don't like this is like boring like oh god we've got a what is the beekeeper is he part of the beekeepers do they all bee keep and i'm like i don't give i i hate when there's too much lore and i think that's my problem with john wick as well yep we're really trying to set up lore but it's like john wick sets up lore because that's what john wick's doing this sets up lore because that's what john wick's doing yeah you know and that's and that's and that's and that's That's what kind of sucks about it. And it, but that's why, like, if you look at it not as, you know, something that should have been competing with John Wick, but something that's totally stupid and over the top in a lot of ways, you can just laugh your way through it and have fun watching it.
Starting point is 00:40:56 And that's the level that I was meeting the bee keep rat, because it's stupid. But it's, to me, it was fun stupid. And I apologize to the other six people that wound up being in my screening opening weekend. I'm curious. I was pretty loud. like the the air cut of suicide squad because they keep saying it i mean it's one of those things where like in middle school when like somebody makes a joke and then like the guy who nobody likes kind of like latches onto it in the bag he's like yeah me too he's totally shit his parents
Starting point is 00:41:27 like that that's what that's what this uh there's an air cut of suicide squad too by the i don't know because the air cut is like what he gave them uh before they decided to do like massive reshoots, right? That's what I assume. theoretically. It's just it's one of those things where I don't think we're ever going to see it a light of day. It'll never happen. But if it does, it'd be cool to see like, you know, oh, here comes Margot Robbie 10 years older in this scene. If we did it for Snyder, man, I'm fine doing it for whoever else.
Starting point is 00:41:59 It's stupid as shit. I will watch the fucking David Ayer like director's cut of suicide squad. I absolutely will. The same way, I would love to see whatever the, whatever, uh, Gareth Edwards gave them, uh, gave Rogue 1 before they I would love to see what the fuck he was doing. I like cuts. Yeah, yeah. I like cuts. I mean, give me all the cuts.
Starting point is 00:42:19 Hey, all right, guys. So something that's not getting any additional cuts. ISS, which opened this weekend, kind of, I think was that six at the box office? This was that from Bleaker, new one from Gabriella Cowperthwaite.
Starting point is 00:42:35 Great concept. Great concept. Yes. Yes. Sluggishly executed. I have to say. I think it does reach a couple of those nice, tense, like paranoid moments, but never can keep the balloon in the air, so it's just the kid constantly picking the balloon back up off the ground again.
Starting point is 00:42:52 It's a great concept. I do think it was like, you know, it's one of those things where this is a problem with some modern filmmaking wherein all of the acting is so studied and human and small and like real and like we're trying to really this movie needed the Twilight Zoni kind of like big performances you know what I mean
Starting point is 00:43:17 and like I think that like that's not shitting on the actors who are in the movie I think they're all doing with the director one which I think she wanted this to be kind of like a what if this really happened I'm like not really though like what if it would happen it was kind of fun you know what I mean or the story's exciting those personalities need to be dialed up make that guy
Starting point is 00:43:34 more Russian somehow or whatever exactly and the squirly guy should be crazy at some point, you know what I mean? Big shout out to Chris Messina's mustache, though. That was great. Great mustache. Not too shabby. And yeah, I mean, that's the thing. It's also got a really good cast because like it's Christmas Sina. Ariana DeBose is sort of like the lead character. John Gallagher
Starting point is 00:43:53 Jr. is a great actor. Costa Ronan from the Americans. He's one of the Russian guys. And then Pilo Asbeck, you're in Greyjoy, I believe. Yes. Who cannot not play an asshole? Has to do it from now on. It's just, it's a mandate. Well, if you do what you love, Chris, you'll never work a day in your life. He's not the bearded guy in succession with Scars Guard, right?
Starting point is 00:44:18 No, he's a guy who looks exactly like it, though. Yeah, a little taller, the guy in the... Yeah, I just, I think all of them were good, but it's just sort of like, it was just very quiet. You know what I mean? Like, it's much more quiet and sensitive than it needed to be. It's very dramatic. I mean, like, it's trying, I mean, this is what we do all the time now. We take all the fact checkers seriously.
Starting point is 00:44:39 We're like, look, well, would this, if somebody who had been in this situation before was watching this, would they be like, yeah, that's about what it was like. And like, that's essentially what they want rather than be like, yeah, or like, woo. It should be a 20 minute twilight zone episode. You know what I mean? Because it's such a twilight zone concept. Here you are up in space and the world ends beneath you. What do you do? I think my biggest problem was the ending, which.
Starting point is 00:45:06 just sort of like, we don't know what to do. Yes. Yeah. Yes. You don't know how to end it, which is why, like, if you're getting, like, crazy with it, like, then you can have a crazy ending but this, it has this, like, ponderous like, what now? And you're like, I kind of don't care.
Starting point is 00:45:22 It's the, oh, hello, bartender. I'll take another. Great. But, I mean, it looks really good. I was about to say, stuff. The visual effects, the visual effects look good. There's definitely things to like about the movie I just felt like it fell short a little bit
Starting point is 00:45:40 and I know it sounds like especially with the beekeeper it's like we want a grounded story but then we get to this movie we're like how about a fantastical one with robots so it's it's a different temperature for each dish though you know what I mean
Starting point is 00:45:53 to be clear I don't want a beekeeper to be grounded at all I want to be crazy all the time if it's good I just don't like that it keeps on going back and forth you just don't like the world building yeah and like that you put so much time into it.
Starting point is 00:46:07 Because that's the FBI, dude. That's what I'm saying. Because like all the Jeremy Iron stuff and Josh Hutcherson, like that shit is crazy. And then of course everything Statham is doing is crazy. But then you have the FBI shit where it's like
Starting point is 00:46:21 now it's a serious crime action thing. And I'm like, no, no, no. Get stupid. Go back. And then you have Jason Statham like going back and like looking mournfully at things and being like, yeah, once was a guy. But now I'm a nor the goy and uh and now i gotta kill you and like it's just like i there's a 90 minute crazy movie
Starting point is 00:46:43 there that they didn't make instead of making rather than instead they made a two hour movie where it's like some of it is crazy yeah i mean so so we're saying here with with i s s it needed to be a little crazy but not a not a complete strikeout i think it's yeah not enough if you're interested if you're interested in the concept i think it is definitely worth watching it's definitely yeah uh you know go out and check it out because there is there's stuff there. I think the performances are there. I mean, I do think the zero gravity stuff was
Starting point is 00:47:11 very cool and very fun to watch. It all looked very fluid. And for a small movie, you know, I think that that was, I was like, wow, this is looking pretty good for the scale of what the, you know, the production seemed to be. Definitely, definitely. So, yeah,
Starting point is 00:47:27 no, you could, you could definitely do worse for sure. So, all right, this, I'm really curious because we haven't talked about this together at all yet but true detective night country who among us
Starting point is 00:47:42 is going along with this so far two episodes we got everybody watched it all yep you know thus far it's early it's early but it's it's reaping me the fuck out man I'm hopeful for it you know obviously a lot you can compare to like the thing or whatever and it's interesting and I'm going to keep watching it and I hope it really gets there
Starting point is 00:48:01 I like Jody Foster a lot Callie Rice is okay thus far. A lot of sex scenes. A lot of sex scenes. It's quite for everyone. It's HBO original program. Yeah. It's just which is really railed against something.
Starting point is 00:48:18 I mean, that is the main reason I watch. The story has not grabbed me the way the, I mean, even the second one, at least I was like into it immediately. This one I'm like, we'll see where it's going.
Starting point is 00:48:31 But this is the only way I'm going. get Jody Foster like I'm a man in the desert here I'm trying to find water and like I only can only go to true detective season four to get my Jody Foster that's right listen Jody he'll shoot the president for him he'll do look and I will do it correctly just to joke come on uh what about did you see her and Annette Benning in the movie there about a net Benning's a swimmer or niad or niad I think it's fine it's you know it's what what are you going to do? My thing with this true detective season is, I'm like,
Starting point is 00:49:08 are there like outright ghosts on this show now? Probably. I'm betting, yes. And there have not, to be clear, there have not been ghosts, and or goblins or any supernatural elements in any of the other. All right. I mean, they try to kind of get you there in that first season with the yellow king or whatever. But that's, dude, Steve, you're totally right, though, because like, I haven't seen two or three.
Starting point is 00:49:28 We saw the first episode of two and fell off immediately. But I'm watching this and I was like, have they been introducing like paranormal shit on this show? Memory is a ghost in all those movies. Go back to season three and talk because that's a dementia one and it's fun.
Starting point is 00:49:45 Yeah. Season three is great. I would say yeah, Andrew, if you're looking for more true detection, season three is fantastic. Watching rehearsal and Stephen Dorf go head to head is just so much great shit. Oh, Stephen Dorff's the other guy? Yeah, yeah. Oh, that's fine. I will say. Well, I got to watch myershal
Starting point is 00:50:00 and something because I'm not getting that goddamn Blade movie. They can't figure it out. They can't figure it out. You can't figure out. You can't figure out. Sword sunglasses, mercial and that's the movie.
Starting point is 00:50:10 Back to True Detective. Am I wrong? Yeah. Did we get like a Rust Cole's possible brother going on here with Travis Cole? Yes. I think they're going to connect it to season one. Oh, that's see.
Starting point is 00:50:23 I don't know if it's father, but the captions have the names held the same. Because it's what's, it's Fiona Shaw, whoever is like, oh, Travis Cole showed me that the bodies, Travis, Travis Cole. Someone in the chat says it's his dad.
Starting point is 00:50:37 So I, right, but season one took place in the early 90s or something or was that period or? I don't know. It was. It did both. But I guess a ghost, you don't have to worry about ages for ghosts. I guess it's true. If you're dead a while.
Starting point is 00:50:52 If you're going to do a ghost, you just do a ghost. Liam Carroll seems to confirm Travis Cole is Rust Cole's father. Would that make Fiona Shaw Russ Cole's mother then? Quite possibly. Possibly. We don't know yet.
Starting point is 00:51:04 Do you think McConaughey is going to sashay in at like the final levels of it? Wow. Pretty cold out here. He's coming home for Christmas. They de-age of like a 51-year-old Matthew McConaughey. I tell you, time is a flat shirt,
Starting point is 00:51:19 but man, is it dark out all the time out here. Wow. That is something. That's why you're to run all the way down to the bayou. Get away from all that. Yeah, that's true.
Starting point is 00:51:29 I also appreciate getting some John Hawks in my entertainment quiet it had been a long time I think since I've seen that guy in fucking anything right yeah and I will say you got Christopher Ecclinson running for Colton McElheny
Starting point is 00:51:45 now like they look exactly the same how did that happen because he's got like they both have the same pattern baldness and now they're getting the same that dude close crop haircut yes like Ecclinson's haircut in the show yes yeah and he's
Starting point is 00:52:00 Ecclinson's looking a little, like, bigger. Yeah, like working out, not like fatter. Like, we're getting big. We're going to swallow. Bane syrup. Yeah, I don't know. I mean, all of the shit, like, you know, with the crime scene and everything, like, it's very Hannibal.
Starting point is 00:52:18 Yeah. Feeling, which is weird, too. I mean, I'll take it. But again, it's just so, so different from the true detective I've known. Well, yeah, I mean, I would say even like the first one, the third one, I was sure I was enjoying watching it whatever the big arc was I was enjoying each episode on their own merit
Starting point is 00:52:38 and that is not true of this this I am more there are things I like but I'm floating around in the hopes that I'm gonna like the big arc once it comes together I feel like that's my feeling right now on it I will see of course you know this is only two episodes I don't know how long it is yeah I don't know either
Starting point is 00:52:57 what is true detective They've all been eight episodes Traditionally. I don't know if they're going to do something different. I'm just, I'm telling you right now, I am in like the worst mood with TV right now because I just finished season two or Ritcher and it is a piece of shit. I am not done yet.
Starting point is 00:53:13 I have one left. The first season was, did you like, I love the first season. The second season, it's like I don't care about your buddies. Your buddies, you didn't, why did they make Jack Reacher part of the Avengers? Why the fuck did it happen? Well, listen, I I didn't get to Iron Man showing up in the finale at so so i'll hold up yeah i mean but you know what i'd be like now he has a
Starting point is 00:53:33 group and he's like i don't like each of them have yeah and like it doesn't matter i don't care i want the character like it doesn't matter i want he needs to be the fish out of water you know like you can't be you can't be you know water in the fish what we go what we do we do here what are you are you going to give railing given three people that matter as much as him in the same job yes it's like if you had justified it's like if you had justify season two you're right and There's three Raylan Givens hanging around. I mean, that was the problem with that Ant Man movie. And that's, I don't understand the desire to be like, oh, you liked it one time.
Starting point is 00:54:06 What if everyone can do that? No, that's the point. That's the guy that does that. That's why I come to watch this thing. That's the bad idea with Blade having a team or whatever that was supposed to be. What are you doing? Yeah, yeah. I just, I don't get it.
Starting point is 00:54:17 It's, I mean, it's because you want, you can sell that as like, we're going to build out a universe. This is how we make other shows. We're going to have a Reacher's girlfriend, this show. and you know first of all get a better title I reacher is like family man friend the show like it's going to have all those versions of it and you sell
Starting point is 00:54:41 it that way but it makes the show itself a shit hole at the same time it's fun enough just because I like seeing people get killed that's sort of what I'm in yeah oh yeah you love that but I hope in season three because it seems to be doing very well I can't imagine them not doing a season three of Reacher I hope
Starting point is 00:54:56 that they go back to formula By the way, I revisited those Back to Formula Apollinger. No, I know, thank you. That was delightful. I revisited the Tom Cruise movies. Oh, the Reacher movies? And the first one with Rutherhurtzog's good enough,
Starting point is 00:55:17 but the second one is God awful. Horrible. Oh, wow. Stay tuned, that way. Colby Soulders. Co-lead? Are you kidding me? No, I don't know why people try and trick me in the watch of that woman to do stuff. She belongs number 32 on a
Starting point is 00:55:30 Marvel call sheet and have to see that. That's another. That's what we're talking best in a sweetie. I think she's great and they just missed cast her. If you ever seen Andrew Bischolski's results, she's fantastic in it. Oh shit, you're right. I do like that movie. Fuck. Well, she's really
Starting point is 00:55:46 good. I take it back. Don't worry that Samuel L. Jackson secret invasion show took care of your problems. I noticed. So that's a They murdered her. So you won't have to worry about her.
Starting point is 00:56:02 Oh, okay. I did not know. Well, good for her. Uh, yeah, that movie's all,
Starting point is 00:56:07 that shows old enough. And no one watched it anyway. So, you know, whatever. It's like, it's the inciting incident of the series.
Starting point is 00:56:13 Sure. Oh, not really that much of a spotlight. No, who gives you. Anyway, I guess jury is still out, uh,
Starting point is 00:56:18 for a couple of y'all on, uh, true detective. I'm in. It's fucking weird. I'm, I'm not watching. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:24 I'm in. Yeah. Um, I've just also, because I've been seeing it in the chat. I think I'm the only one that took the leap. I did really like Echo, by the way, the Disney show there. Brutal as
Starting point is 00:56:36 fuck, really good fight choreography, good family story, and DeNafrio in almost every episode reprising as Kingpin. Only one daredevil sighting, but I did see, do you guys see they started refilming that shit? Because it's going to be all like reimagined or
Starting point is 00:56:52 totally done. What? They stopped shooting the Daredevil show, the new one. Born again. Again? Well, no, no. They stopped it. And then it was like,
Starting point is 00:57:03 we're creatively retooling it. And now, like, I think tomorrow or today, actually, they start filming whatever the new thing is going to be. It's going to be hard for me to do any Marvel TV anymore. We're never seen any of these movies. Blades not happening. This movie's not happening.
Starting point is 00:57:19 Like, just stop it. I just feel like either way. Poor Charlie Cox is like William Shatner in that Twilight episode. Is it coming? Is Daredeville Bordigan? coming out next year? Is it coming out the year after that? Can I leave?
Starting point is 00:57:32 Can I leave? Tickets out of a mouth of a clown or whatever that was. Yeah, well, okay, yeah, keep doing this and like, well, yeah, because what else is he going to do? Are they going to try to, like, a prequel version of his character from fucking boardwalk Empire? Is that what he's going to do? I would like that. He's 30 years too old
Starting point is 00:57:48 for it now, but at that point. Yeah, but that would be nice. But, yeah, I don't know. Anyway, see Echo. It's a quick, it's like five of them, I think. I keep meaning to get through it I want to. Yeah. They're all like 40 something minutes. It flies by. I watched it all
Starting point is 00:58:04 in a single sitting. So real quick, this is a weird thing because it came out January 2nd. I received it in the mail January 12th. But a little bit of home media mania here. Criterion put out the Apu trilogy, the Satajit Ray
Starting point is 00:58:20 trilogy of movies, which are just some of the most masterful movies ever made. Pothor Ponchali, Aparaget Jito and Upper Sansar make up the three movies. The first one sort of like put
Starting point is 00:58:34 India's drama cinema in like international conversation. It was a huge hit. I think John Houston was who brought it to New York City or something like that. But these are all like literally restored from ashes. The fucking negatives
Starting point is 00:58:50 burned in a fire and they this was like the Academy Film Archive and La Magine Retraviata in Italy like worked painlessly to restore these movies. They look gorgeous. Essays by fucking Terry Rafferty, great filmmaker, and Geree Shambu,
Starting point is 00:59:05 both great film writers in this. If you are interested in a place to start with Indian cinema, these three movies 100% pick up this set from Criterion. You will not regret it. Incredible. Their work with the Ray stuff,
Starting point is 00:59:22 they've been very good about Ray movies. Yeah. And they've all been really well preserved. Yeah, and those are just three excellent movies in a little pack there to go for that. But that's going to do it for this week, gang. It's good to be back, of course. Just some
Starting point is 00:59:38 reminders about stuff here. Oh, here was the... I think I didn't put up. Anyway, so stuff that's out on Patreon, of course, speaking of McConaughey, Agent Elvis was covered on animation, damnation last week. Just a real 15 years too late cartoon there.
Starting point is 00:59:54 And then a character that just never got to thrive in her glory. Lady Valeria The Gleap Glacery The poor pig lady Yes and if you don't care about the pig lady You have to listen to this episode For Steve getting stuck in
Starting point is 01:00:08 Some financial trouble Exactly, that's part of why I had to go away For a little while because some narc-ass fan Was it like, do you remember When you made a bet so many years ago? Do you remember? And then thank you fan Because then I got that $100 and then suddenly
Starting point is 01:00:24 Steve's going to Dr. Nick Riviera's clinic and he's taking even longer to recover exactly he got that that hundred bucks didn't last that long how's that tape
Starting point is 01:00:35 treat yeah the tape's ready to go too everything must go we need to make money here I am really fucking in too deep it's not a joke it's not a joke

Starting point is 01:01:26 And then on the Nexus, of course, that's going to drop on Friday. Charles Napier shirtless playing shitty music on TOS. Sick, dude. Oh, my God. It's, it's something. If you want to, if you want to see a narrative in our show here, you can watch as Andrew says there's no, Charles Manson's music is not good. There's nothing even slightly worse than it in the Asian Elvis episode.
Starting point is 01:01:51 And then come to the Nexus episode where he does indeed find song that are worse than. Charles Manson songs. Yes. I wouldn't believe it if I didn't see it for myself, Chris. Being played by Jonathan Demme favorite Charles Napier. Yes, this is a nexus worth it for everyone wants to hear Chris freak out for 90 minutes. I love it. It's off. You were so angry.
Starting point is 01:02:13 It was really, it was a pretty pretty funny. Fuck, I have. Well, that's fine. It was pretty funny. So patreon.com slash we hate movies for all that. That's going to do it for this week. We're stuck to be back. Thanks for tuning in until next week.
