sightings reported around the world every month. Ninety percent of these sightings can be

9
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:52,560
explained, but ten percent cannot.
Officially and unofficially, the US military has

10
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:57,159
been investigating the UFOs since nineteen forty
seven. Their top secret goal is to

11
00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:03,200
mine out what's behind these unexplained sightings. The Pentagon classifies them as unusual airborne

12
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:07,599
anomalies, but a better term is
X files. Join us now as Mac

00:01:41,079 --> 00:01:45,280

00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:22,520
great, Mac, Just another big
night for me. Yes, yes,

31
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,520
you know. I've been trying to
figure out why lately, I really am

32
00:02:25,599 --> 00:02:29,319
feeling better than usual when I come
on the show. Okay, and I

33
00:02:29,439 --> 00:02:32,199
realized that this is this is my
therapy session. Really. My wife told

34
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,560
me that. She says, you
know that when you go there. She

35
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,719
said, you know, you're relieving
yourself of a lot of things. Huh.

36
00:02:38,879 --> 00:02:40,800
And I said, yeah, you
know. I never realized that,

37
00:02:40,879 --> 00:02:44,639
but now I know what it is. You No, I'm and I'm looking

38
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,800
at switch Out all the time,
and he looks like someone that you'd want

39
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:51,639
to relieve yourself with. Okay,
well, okay, there's better words there,

40
00:02:51,719 --> 00:02:54,080
but okay, yeah, Well,
if I can prevent your anger from

41
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:59,680
boiling up and hitting somebody, some
innocent I'm being nasty to something into something

42
00:02:59,719 --> 00:03:01,960
out, I'll take the slings and
arrows. Oh and I know. And

43
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:06,520
the nice thing is, you know
you you're very good at that, and

44
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:08,560
because you know the things I say, you're accurate. But I don't,

45
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:14,439
you know, I don't mean to
insult you would I would think that was

46
00:03:14,479 --> 00:03:17,919
happening. But anyways, I'm really
excited tonight because tonight is the switch show.

47
00:03:19,199 --> 00:03:21,639
Switch Show? Is it really?
Okay, you're really the guy that

48
00:03:21,719 --> 00:03:24,000
didn't get that memo? But Okay, I want to sit back here tonight

49
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:28,240
and let him take over and enjoy
myself, eat a couple of twinkies and

50
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,479
yeah, and so I'm really counting
on your a nice switch. That sounds

51
00:03:31,599 --> 00:03:36,680
great. You better past those twinkies. I think. I think that what's

52
00:03:36,759 --> 00:03:42,479
concerning is that the club's therapy would
be hanging around with five white, drunk

53
00:03:42,759 --> 00:03:46,000
stone guys on one hot chick.
Is that what the doctor ordered? Does

54
00:03:46,039 --> 00:03:47,599
that on the prescription? Yeah?
I guess it's you know, it's pretty

55
00:03:47,639 --> 00:03:51,360
much the way of come up in
life, So it's something new. I

56
00:03:51,879 --> 00:03:53,520
had to show you something. I
know the audience can't see it. But

57
00:03:53,599 --> 00:04:00,400
as a product, these are twinkies, bounces they call him bounces. Yeah,

58
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:04,560
go ahead, individual twinkies, all
right, little small mini twinkies.

59
00:04:04,599 --> 00:04:10,680
Haven't had them yet, no wow
coding on them. Yeah, And I

60
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:14,960
was going to have them during the
show. If if Switch falls in his

61
00:04:15,039 --> 00:04:17,040
face, then I think I'll have
a couple of these because I'll be pepped

62
00:04:17,079 --> 00:04:23,040
up flying the I am a lot
more sugar and stuff on them. He

63
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,879
speaking of flying in the studio with
us. Is you ould mechanic now right

64
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:31,800
now? Though? Well? Hello
Mac, Hello, gentlemen high on life

65
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,720
and shugar. Yeah, there you
go. I'm just gonna sit back and

66
00:04:34,759 --> 00:04:39,720
have a few beers and watch this
wow yeah, and then want to wait

67
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,360
for Steve to put the train wreck
up from the background and put it up

68
00:04:42,399 --> 00:04:46,240
now. Wow huh. And we're
all in the Christmas spirit, you know.

69
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,720
Christmas was about two months ago that
my friend, Sorry, we're ahead

70
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:54,040
of the game. Oh really,
yeah, well I guess we're gonna hit

71
00:04:54,079 --> 00:04:58,199
it out. Okay, well we'll
sit He'll depend So anyway, well,

72
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,399
well listen, we can talk about
a number of things tonight. I should

73
00:05:00,519 --> 00:05:08,000
just promo that we have coming up, or you've probably already heard it.

74
00:05:08,879 --> 00:05:14,160
We had a World Got To Trivia
show and this is with the offices from

75
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:18,120
Home Stock Troops and it's always really
kind of a nutty show. The questions

76
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:23,839
are really kind of we did on
Wall Movies five the Wall Movies, and

77
00:05:25,199 --> 00:05:27,439
you know, like how long one
of the questions was? You know,

78
00:05:27,519 --> 00:05:30,000
in the Longest Day, there's that
very very long sequence of the French trying

79
00:05:30,079 --> 00:05:33,720
to take this casine away from the
Germans. It's two minutes long shot from

80
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:40,000
a helicopter. Fantastic movie. Longest
Day thirty Seconds of a Tokyo was another

81
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:43,720
one of the movies, Saving Private
Ryan, which I have a lot of

82
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:47,360
problems with that movie, and also
Paton, which is also a really good

83
00:05:47,439 --> 00:05:50,160
movie. Anyway, in the midst
of all that, Okay, see,

84
00:05:50,199 --> 00:05:53,920
these are the fun facts that I
found out about war movies. You're ready?

85
00:05:53,959 --> 00:05:59,680
Are we ready? We're ready.
There's a movie that John Wayne was

86
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:01,800
in, The Green Berets. Remember
that that moment, sure, okay,

87
00:06:02,639 --> 00:06:05,800
came out in the sixties while we
were still over the fighting. At the

88
00:06:05,959 --> 00:06:09,040
end of it, I mean,
and he just you know, does he

89
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,680
saves the world basically in Vietnam And
at the end he has saved an orphan

90
00:06:12,759 --> 00:06:17,519
kid. And the last shot is
him on the beach watching the sun go

91
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,319
down and saying, don't don't worry, kid, you know, the United

92
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,439
States is going to save you,
and so on and so forth. The

93
00:06:23,519 --> 00:06:27,959
problem is you can't see the sun
go down in Vietnam. You see what

94
00:06:27,959 --> 00:06:33,399
I mean. It's because it's facing
the east. Okay, okay, called

95
00:06:33,439 --> 00:06:36,000
the wrong sunset? All right?
Should I go on with you? Oh

96
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:41,399
no, I'm all right. I'm
just trying to figure out why. Okay,

97
00:06:41,439 --> 00:06:48,240
Well, we'll see we'll see ever
see the movie to tour tour plenty

98
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:53,319
of times. It was half produced, half by the Japanese and half by

99
00:06:53,319 --> 00:06:59,560
the United States. Okay, so
the Japanese half is subtitled okay, but

100
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:01,839
in the hap and He's half,
you know, when they're going back and

101
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:08,120
forth to the carriers and stuff like
that, Right, the Japanese officers are

102
00:07:08,199 --> 00:07:13,079
in white uniforms and the and the
the captions are in white. So he

103
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,160
can't get on this thing. You
can't read it, can't read it.

104
00:07:15,279 --> 00:07:20,639
Yeah, a big mistake. Wow, Okay, remember the first scene of

105
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,839
we'll cut this out. Remember the
first scene of Patten. The first scene

106
00:07:24,879 --> 00:07:27,000
of pat where he goes up in
the steps, he has the big flag

107
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:29,439
behind him, he gives the big
speech, and he gives that speech.

108
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:31,680
That was the last scene they shot
in the movie, not the first,

109
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:36,279
because George see Scott didn't think he
could play Patent. He was and he

110
00:07:36,399 --> 00:07:40,639
was the fourth choice farm Okay,
he just didn't think that he would be

111
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:44,519
able to play it. So he
said, if that's my opening scene film,

112
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,319
that last, because I'll be If
I'm not Patent by then, I'll

113
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:50,040
never be Patton, you know.
And he's that movie is great. Man.

114
00:07:50,519 --> 00:07:53,519
You look at him, he's a
movie style. He's been in a

115
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,120
lot of movies. But you look
at him and he's patent, you know

116
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:59,000
what I mean, he's he pulls
it off. He's the guy. Yeah,

117
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,120
really good movies. If you serve
under me, you won't have to

118
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:05,040
tell your kids your shovels ship in
Louisiana. Yeah right, yeah, yeah,

119
00:08:05,079 --> 00:08:09,199
yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah. Anyway, okay, so uh

120
00:08:09,439 --> 00:08:16,160
let's see, yeah, yeah,
Druggy Scott was the fourth choice. Okay,

121
00:08:16,319 --> 00:08:20,000
the four the three people in front
of him who turned it down.

122
00:08:20,079 --> 00:08:24,480
Was the first choice was Rod Steiger. Does anyone know remember who he was?

123
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:28,519
He was in there? Oh yeah, you know, yeah and the

124
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:33,240
waterfront, right, yep, yep, let's see. He was the first

125
00:08:33,279 --> 00:08:35,240
one. He thought it was too
pro war. Uh So then they went

126
00:08:35,279 --> 00:08:39,480
to britt Lancaster. Britt Lancaster,
which is is funny because neither of those

127
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:45,799
guys like anything like Patten. He
turned it down. Robert Mitcham turned it

128
00:08:45,919 --> 00:08:48,039
down. Okay, I suppose he
could have done it, but John Scott

129
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:52,720
looks like Patton, which yeah,
out of the group, yeah, you

130
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:56,440
know, uh, let's see.
So anyway, yeah, fun facts I

131
00:08:56,480 --> 00:09:01,600
could see, I mean Lancaster right
and kind of golong in the tooth for

132
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:05,559
that by then, wasn't he yeah
yeah, sixteen, No he was.

133
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:07,279
No, he was in The Birdman
of Alcatraz, that was a big part.

134
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:11,320
Was probably older than him. Yeah, are the Yeah, maybe the

135
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:13,360
same because they both kind of came
out together. I just I guess you

136
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,240
just can't think of Patton as being
anyone to drudg see Scott. You know,

137
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:22,720
it's amazing how many movies when they
know you watch, when you say

138
00:09:22,759 --> 00:09:24,919
that, when the guy really kills
or the woman kills the part, and

139
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,679
you see, I can't see anyone
else playing that, and then they say,

140
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,080
oh, they weren't at first choices, were at first choice, and

141
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,320
you go, I don't see any
of them could have done it. I

142
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,039
don't really write you know that means
they did a good job. Oh yeah,

143
00:09:35,039 --> 00:09:39,120
they became the part. It's just
this numerous ones like that. But

144
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:46,039
you know, you could take saving
Private Ryan and just pulling a pot with

145
00:09:46,159 --> 00:09:50,720
all the mistakes in that movie.
It's amazing. It's amazing how but because

146
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:54,440
it's kind of a stop vehicle and
you know, it's a Spielbird movie,

147
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:56,799
people are going to go see it, and I think it's great. I

148
00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:01,320
would put that movie on. I
would make it quiet viewing for anyone in

149
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:05,000
high school who wants to like during
the Marines or the army or something,

150
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,480
because it's the most realistic battle scene
you'll ever see in your life. It's

151
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,679
just do you remember that when they
come up, you know, on Omaha

152
00:10:09,759 --> 00:10:13,039
Beach and pupure and just the suddenness
of death and stuff like that, and

153
00:10:13,159 --> 00:10:18,120
just to horrifying that that part of
it. But the story, once again,

154
00:10:18,879 --> 00:10:22,240
all it has come down from the
White House. Find this guy because

155
00:10:22,279 --> 00:10:24,799
his other brothers have been killed.
We don't want the whole family wiped out?

156
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:30,200
Okay, what is from the president? And they send seven freaking guys

157
00:10:30,279 --> 00:10:33,120
out looking for this guy? Why
wouldn't you send one hundred tanks out?

158
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,960
You know what I mean? I
mean, why would you send simon guys

159
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:39,840
walking to fun? You know,
you know, I gotta I gotta disagree

160
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:46,120
with your respectively. You got to
enjoy it. That was entertainment, you

161
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:48,559
know, I know, you got
your background and all that stuff, so

162
00:10:48,639 --> 00:10:52,240
you're looking at it a little closer
than the average person. But my gud,

163
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:56,399
that was a good entertaining movie.
I mean if yeah, yeah,

164
00:10:56,919 --> 00:10:58,720
yeah, I don't know you you're
looking at it from a different angle.

165
00:10:58,799 --> 00:11:03,919
And I know how I well,
because I went to film skills and yeah,

166
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:07,159
we didn't go into combat either,
right, right, exactly. I

167
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:11,480
would prefer a few came out and
said I served three tours and you know

168
00:11:11,639 --> 00:11:15,919
in the Second World War. Whatever. I listen to you. But yeah,

169
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,879
look, you're looking at it from
I just see that. I know

170
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:22,440
how the sausage is made. As
they say, I don't know. You

171
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:24,840
don't need any agree with that.
I don't admit it very often, but

172
00:11:24,919 --> 00:11:28,799
I do know someone who was the
photographer in the water filming that scene,

173
00:11:28,919 --> 00:11:33,279
his brother, right, yeah,
he said it was pretty uh, pretty

174
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:39,279
interesting, Jeff. That whole the
the the the longest day. You know,

175
00:11:39,759 --> 00:11:43,000
it's probably the show will be coming
up sometimes to this. Uh with

176
00:11:43,159 --> 00:11:48,279
the two trivia contests has these long
long shots. One of them is like

177
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:52,200
two minutes long. There's another one
where the uh, the driven planes are

178
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:56,559
strafing the beach straight from the beach
and there's thousands of people in the scene.

179
00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:00,240
It's I mean there's thousands of people
running around, right. How you

180
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,120
do that? You know what I
mean, how you corral that, how

181
00:12:03,159 --> 00:12:07,519
you wrangle that together to make it? The Longest Day is a great movie.

182
00:12:07,519 --> 00:12:09,120
And it's in black and white.
And I always thought that there's so

183
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,919
many stars that they had to spend
the money just pay the stars, and

184
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:15,480
they couldn't afford the color. But
it isn't. It's what it is is

185
00:12:15,519 --> 00:12:18,879
that they have a lot. There's
a lot of real actual footage in it,

186
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,399
and and they sneak it in every
once a while, and they wanted

187
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,960
that to match what they were filming, you know, so uh yeah,

188
00:12:24,039 --> 00:12:28,120
long stay clone. Anyway, why
don't we do this, Why don't we

189
00:12:28,159 --> 00:12:30,519
take a break now just to figure
out what we're going to be doing and

190
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,879
we'll be right back after this.

one of the funniest things I've ever

00:13:37,519 --> 00:13:41,039
in the Nevada Desert. But have

Places? Did Richard Nixon show Jackie
Gleeson a crashed alien spaceship near the swamps

212
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,799
of Florida? Is it true that
more UFOs are seen over a small Scottish

213
00:14:03,879 --> 00:14:07,919
village than anywhere else in the world. And is there a secret place in

214
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:11,919
Russia that some people think is Heaven
on Earth? In Mac Maloney's Beyond Area

217
00:14:20,639 --> 00:14:24,480
alive and humans can fly without wings. And where's the only secret base in

218
00:14:24,559 --> 00:14:28,879
America that's not been visited by UFOs. You've heard Mac talk all about these

219
00:14:28,919 --> 00:14:31,960
places on his radio show. Now

220

226
00:15:18,919 --> 00:15:24,159

Steve Woard is here. What a switchy

229
00:15:33,159 --> 00:15:37,240
and it is great to be here
tonight. Okay. I feel like I've

230
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:41,159
heard you say that, well recently
in the past, about five seconds and

231
00:15:41,279 --> 00:15:46,759
five minutes ago or so, about
maybe maybe seven or eight minutes. What's

232
00:15:46,799 --> 00:15:48,960
your background tonight? I come to
talk about his hair looks a little beatnick

233
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,799
tonight? Is it me? Does
he have that kind of beat nick thing

234
00:15:52,879 --> 00:15:54,080
going on? Oh? I just
need to comb it a bit. Oh

235
00:15:56,279 --> 00:16:00,759
okay, thanks. You're going to
be giving report tonight, switch Yes,

236
00:16:00,879 --> 00:16:03,240
I am. Okay. You want
to tease it, as they say in

237
00:16:03,279 --> 00:16:07,799
the business, Well, it's it's
it's going to be about an amazing that

238
00:16:07,879 --> 00:16:11,279
you can get into your hands and
actually read it without reading it online.

239
00:16:11,759 --> 00:16:14,600
And toward the end of this report, there's going to be a little tidbit

240
00:16:14,639 --> 00:16:17,360
in there, kind of throwing a
bone, a bone to club, so

241
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:18,840
to speak. Wow, throwing a
bone to Club. Okay, I think

242
00:16:18,879 --> 00:16:22,559
you might get really excited. I
think I saw that movie next Stone,

243
00:16:22,639 --> 00:16:26,120
So just to stay with it.
There'll be a few different short stories more

244
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:27,879
or less short reports, yes,
and then we'll get to the uh,

245
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:33,559
the chi the leading bit at the
end once again. Okay, but look

246
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:40,000
talking about Club A security chief Willie
Club is here with us, Willie WC.

247
00:16:40,639 --> 00:16:44,320
How are you you know? I'm
I'm doing excellent. But now I'm

248
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:48,879
excited. I really know. When
Switch tells me that there's some exciting stuff

249
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:52,840
down the road coming from Switchboy,
that's that's quite a challenge. So I'm

250
00:16:52,039 --> 00:16:56,480
okay, really looking forward to and
again I want to thank you for having

251
00:16:56,519 --> 00:17:00,639
me for our weekly therapy session.
We talked about that and I'm previous segment,

252
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:06,440
which we're probably not going to broadcast
also with us in the studio is

253
00:17:06,759 --> 00:17:11,559
Euful Mechanic gall right now? No, hell, hey mac gents, how

254
00:17:11,599 --> 00:17:15,119
are we doing this evening? Okay? Good? Good? Now just go

255
00:17:15,799 --> 00:17:19,039
very quickly throw it back to club. Earlier you had a new product by

256
00:17:19,079 --> 00:17:22,359
Houstess you were showing it to us. Could you want to just do that

257
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:27,519
once again? Place, Yeah,
these are individual packs of they're called bouncers

258
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:33,880
in there like a Twinkie cut up
in the four pieces, okay, and

259
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:38,160
it has a sugar coating on the
I'm really excited because you know, I

260
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:41,839
haven't opened them yet. I wanted
to wait till the after party. After

261
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:48,680
the after party, but they're called
glazed Twinkie mini cakes, and I want

262
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,799
to be close, you know,
to the bed because I think probably going

263
00:17:51,839 --> 00:17:55,160
to get me all wired and everything. Hey, okay, good, yes,

264
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:56,680
So I'll let you guys know what
I think of them. I want

265
00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:03,440
to try particularly nights when the show
bugs down bogs down. Okay, So,

266
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,720
club, you're saying that these have
actually more sugar on them. If

267
00:18:07,759 --> 00:18:10,599
you put four them together, you'd
have your basic Twinkie, but you'd have

268
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:14,559
more sugar than the average twinkie.
Yeah. From what I'm reading here,

269
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:21,519
these have a sugar glaze on the
top of them. So I don't even

270
00:18:21,559 --> 00:18:23,319
want to look at the sodium content. No, no, no, But

271
00:18:23,559 --> 00:18:27,160
let me ask you this. Did
they break them up into four pieces because

272
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,720
it's just so tough to eat a
Twinkie all at once? Is that the

273
00:18:30,799 --> 00:18:34,799
angle? Well, you know what
it's like. Hey, do you guys

274
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:41,359
remember screaming yellow Zonkers. I do
remember the name that band band. They

275
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:45,720
were a magical butter glazed popcorn snack. Okay, according to the commercial,

276
00:18:47,559 --> 00:18:51,079
that was a really funny commercial.
So we got to win. That must

277
00:18:51,079 --> 00:18:53,359
have been a virtual products. Well, so that's good to know. Is

278
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:57,359
that the temporary product you know the
club or is it going to be around

279
00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:00,880
that they just test my Yeah,
I think I'm probably a guinea pig on

280
00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:04,160
this. I'm not sure I can
watch. That's offensive to some people.

281
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:11,680
That's offensive to l to use that
term. Okay, sorry. What I

282
00:19:11,799 --> 00:19:18,160
also saw Lois actually bought me the
other day is Dunkin Donuts roasted about Dunkin

283
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:19,880
Donuts on the show. And I'm
hoping everyone who's listening to us knows what

284
00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:26,799
dunk dunt said. Massively successful and
and uh dunk donut shop, coffee shop,

285
00:19:27,319 --> 00:19:32,039
sandwiches, you know. But anyway, now they're in the candy market.

286
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:36,240
There's they have candy and super mixus. I think our area might be

287
00:19:36,279 --> 00:19:38,359
a test, Michael where they it's
basically it's a it's a it's a jelly

288
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:45,319
donut candy. It looks like a
Reese's white chocolate peanut cup. Ever see

289
00:19:45,319 --> 00:19:49,240
those the white chocolate peanut but a
cup Reese's so, but it's that as

290
00:19:49,279 --> 00:19:52,680
it is, and then the inside
is the jelly like you're in like you're

291
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:56,039
eating a jelly donut. It was
it was pretty good. Well there's we're

292
00:19:56,119 --> 00:20:00,839
now seeing reese'sumb really between that and
the empty re this package is here in

293
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,640
the basket in the studio. Man, I'm really long jones and one that,

294
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:06,960
as the kids say, well,
so anyway, I had the junk

295
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:11,160
food, got the junk food over
with. So switchy, let's go right

296
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:15,079
to you. Maybe this movie an
all switch show. Who knows you?

297
00:20:15,279 --> 00:20:18,319
You? You the past few three
or four days, you've sent me pictures

298
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:22,240
of your breakfast, as if to
mock me, show me all these great

299
00:20:22,519 --> 00:20:23,720
breaches that you know. No,
that's that's not why I when I when

300
00:20:23,759 --> 00:20:29,160
I make comments about what I had
at Tutor's Biscuit World, that's just so

301
00:20:29,279 --> 00:20:32,759
you can kind of visualize what I'm
what I'm eating. Not not to taunt

302
00:20:32,799 --> 00:20:34,599
you, Okay, throw it in
your face, all right? Or when

303
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,519
you say that you had these,
uh, these saltines with no salt on

304
00:20:37,599 --> 00:20:41,400
them, with a dab of locloriy
peanut fu. Yes, no salt no,

305
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:45,000
no salt, no sugar, peanut
related to the Hooters, the Hamburger

306
00:20:45,079 --> 00:20:52,799
place, I would suggest not nobly. Okay, so anyway, so yes,

307
00:20:52,839 --> 00:20:55,759
so Switch will send me these these
huge platters, its pictures, huge

308
00:20:55,799 --> 00:20:59,920
platters of uh breakfast food and I'm
literally sitting there eating something on a salt

309
00:21:00,039 --> 00:21:03,960
team, something that doesn't taste like
anything. So any way, Switch,

310
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:07,119
if you're sitting one the other day
and it was looked like three eggs,

311
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:12,079
six sticks of bacon, that's what
they call the low carb you can have.

312
00:21:12,319 --> 00:21:17,759
You can have bacon or sausage.
Yes, three eggs anyway, three

313
00:21:17,839 --> 00:21:21,599
eggs and either like a bread or
a biscuit. Yeah, yeah, yeah

314
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:25,359
yeah. And that's the low cob
low cob interesting that they would put right,

315
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,920
Okay, the high cob must be
unbelievable. But so anyway, so

316
00:21:29,039 --> 00:21:33,319
I'm guessing only because that you've been
out a few times one or a few

317
00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:37,880
times this week, I'm going to
say you stayed in. I'm thinking I'm

318
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:42,319
getting a frosted Flakes vibe, maybe
switching. Did I stayed in today?

319
00:21:42,559 --> 00:21:45,720
What did you have for breakfast?
Yes? Well, I actually went to

320
00:21:45,799 --> 00:21:51,279
bob Evans today. I crossed the
two rivers across the two bridges back into

321
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:55,400
bridge to the Silver Memorial Bridge.
Yes, and it got into gallop withs

322
00:21:55,480 --> 00:22:00,920
Ohio and went to bob Evans.
Bob Evans. This morning, I had

323
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:07,240
a three meat omelet, bacon and
sausage with cheese and you know other stuff

324
00:22:07,279 --> 00:22:11,960
in it. But I didn't have
any extras. I didn't have any HaShas

325
00:22:12,279 --> 00:22:17,000
or any kind of bread or or
you know, biscuit or whatever. So

326
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:18,799
it was just just the omelet.
And that's pretty feeling. Yeah. Yeah,

327
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:23,359
yeah, yeah, that was nine
bucks. You know, it was

328
00:22:23,519 --> 00:22:29,599
more than that. It was No, it was more like twelve fourteen bucks.

329
00:22:30,599 --> 00:22:36,920
Yeah, I thought I was in
Massachusetts again. Uh all right,

330
00:22:37,039 --> 00:22:38,640
wow, switching, thanks, No, Now, well I can think of

331
00:22:38,759 --> 00:22:41,480
is like food, like really good
food, you know, like six strips

332
00:22:41,519 --> 00:22:45,279
of bacon and the big biscuit.
Anyway, So I Sweitch, you ever

333
00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:48,920
report for us tonight? So one? Then I put you one. I

334
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:57,519
put your bumper in right here.
And now it's time for another story from

335
00:22:57,599 --> 00:23:03,279
the Lost Animals of the pack Normal. It's time for Steve Ward's report from

336
00:23:03,319 --> 00:23:07,599
the Fringe. So, switcheran,
what do you have for us tonight?

337
00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:14,240
Okay? These reports are from a
magazine called The Gate to Strange Phenomena.

338
00:23:14,799 --> 00:23:19,359
It's a quarterly magazine ten dollars US, twelve dollars Canada, fourteen dollars overseas.

339
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:25,519
It's about digest size. Back issues
are available and it's something you can

340
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:30,200
order and open up in the envelope
and actually read on, you know,

341
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:32,720
sitting down in a chair. You
don't have to be by the computer.

342
00:23:33,559 --> 00:23:38,119
Stan Gordon has a column in there
every issue called the Unusual and Unexplained,

343
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:48,160
And in this particular one he has
several reports from south western Pennsylvania and there's

344
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:52,200
a lot of recent activity. I'll
just give you one of them. And

345
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:55,599
a lot of these are like i
say, UFOs and bigfoot type reports,

346
00:23:55,640 --> 00:24:00,559
which this area has been known for
for years. In August, in a

347
00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,640
Dairy township, a woman was walking
her two dogs, and this was in

348
00:24:03,799 --> 00:24:08,480
the Dairy Dairy Ridge area. Now, one of her dogs stopped and stared

349
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:12,240
into a wooded area about twenty yards
away. Now, this is a dog

350
00:24:12,319 --> 00:24:17,799
that never growls, but it started
growling staring at something. There was something

351
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:22,200
large standing in the trees, partially
camouflaged by the trees and by the foliage,

352
00:24:22,599 --> 00:24:27,920
and it was maybe seven feet tall, black and brown fur arms hanging

353
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:32,559
down to its side. Now,
the creature was staring at them, and

354
00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:36,279
so she decided to get the heck
out of there and ask what she did.

355
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:41,599
That was the end of that encounter. Now, the next article from

356
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:45,799
the gate. The source is from
the Sun dot com. Remember nineteenth nineteen,

357
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:52,240
Yeah, twenty twenty three, and
the title is Frightened perooving in villagers

358
00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:57,720
report attempted face peeling by unknown entities. Now there's a title for you.

359
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:07,440
Of San Antonio de Pinto Yaku claimed
that yellow eyed creatures attempted to abduct a

360
00:25:07,519 --> 00:25:14,599
teenage girl and tried to remove her
face. An American explorer named Timothy Alberino

361
00:25:15,039 --> 00:25:18,880
and an ex marine gud Thornton,
traveled deep into the Peruvium jungle to investigate.

362
00:25:19,279 --> 00:25:22,799
It took a two day boat trip. The locals they met there were

363
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:30,519
terrified. They were patrolling their village, their area, having a watch every

364
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:33,119
night. They even burned down five
acres of forest to give them a clear

365
00:25:33,279 --> 00:25:38,319
view of anything that might be coming
in and approaching. They have encountered,

366
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:44,400
according to their testimony, seven foot
tall entities dressed in black body armor,

367
00:25:45,279 --> 00:25:49,279
wearing helmets, having bright yellow eyes. They fly silently through the air on

368
00:25:49,519 --> 00:25:55,119
lighted oval platforms. One man says
he shot one point blank. It was

369
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,960
knocked down, but then got up
again, apparently unharmed, and disappeared.

370
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,960
Said that the locals also witnessed UFOs
the size of helicopters, but they were

371
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:10,440
eric acorn shaped, not conventional.
The teenage girl that was attached was picking

372
00:26:10,519 --> 00:26:15,079
fruit and one of these beings,
while riding one of these platforms, grabbed

373
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:19,200
her from behind, along with another
one of these these entities. She said,

374
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:23,960
a syringe was inserted into her nose
and made her face go numb.

375
00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:29,960
They took something that looked like a
scalpel and made two cuts to her neck.

376
00:26:30,599 --> 00:26:33,880
She heard one of them say,
and there's no explanation as to why

377
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:38,240
she understood them if they are actually
some kind of aliens. She heard one

378
00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:45,400
say that he was using too much
cream. It would ruin the flesh and

379
00:26:45,519 --> 00:26:49,000
make her face difficult to remove,
so she screamed. Her brothers heard,

380
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:53,119
and it came to her rescue,
and they took off and left left her

381
00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:56,160
alone. She was in a semi
conscious state and she was bleeding, but

382
00:26:56,319 --> 00:27:02,440
she recovered. Evarino thinks that they
are, and not alien beans at all,

383
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:07,720
but some kind of an international organization
of organ harvesters and maybe sex traffickers.

384
00:27:07,519 --> 00:27:11,519
Again, he does not think that
there are other worldly The next article

Unknown men come, come knocking while
UFO hovers in the background. That's

387
00:27:33,759 --> 00:27:37,079
the title of this article. This
occurred on September twenty seventh, twenty twenty

388
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:41,720
three, and it was captured on
a doorbell camera in an unnamed California city.

389
00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:48,039
Two strange men wearing dark suits sunglasses
were seen knocking on the front door.

390
00:27:48,599 --> 00:27:52,000
They were not recognized by anyone in
the house. They were persistent.

391
00:27:52,039 --> 00:27:56,119
They kept ringing the bell for a
long time and it kind of unnerved everybody

392
00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:59,839
inside. The thing is that when
you look at this footage, that looks

393
00:27:59,880 --> 00:28:03,880
like there's a black UFO suspended in
the background in the air, just hovering

394
00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:12,559
in the background. The next next

397
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:30,200
four teenagers encountered small entities that they
described as two foot tall aliens.

398
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:36,880
This story was first covered in the
newspaper La Opinion with the headline Aliens in

399
00:28:37,079 --> 00:28:48,200
Peregino question mark Christian Cassio fourteen,
Silvio Penna, Dario Duran, Javier Heringhi,

400
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:52,440
all nineteen years of age. They
described these creatures as completely bald,

401
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:57,240
wearing some kind of clothes with a
color similar to frog skin. They all

402
00:28:57,319 --> 00:29:02,799
had one eye. The six creatures
spotted them and gestured for them to come

403
00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:07,480
close, and they were making some
kind of gutteral growling noises, so they

404
00:29:07,519 --> 00:29:10,839
decided they weren't going to approach.
They just took off running and got the

405
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:18,599
hell out of there. Next story
from paranormal authority dot com. What is

406
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:23,960
a fleshgate and stories of creatures that
live deep in the forest that can mimic

407
00:29:25,079 --> 00:29:29,640
voices of people you may know?
And this is I've found this in like

408
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:37,039
Swedish folklore, the fairies that lived
in the woods would mimic the children's parents'

409
00:29:37,119 --> 00:29:41,279
voices and try and lure them into
the woods. Now they could even According

410
00:29:41,319 --> 00:29:48,039
to this, these flesh gates take
on human likenesses. In their native form,

411
00:29:48,079 --> 00:29:52,160
they are described as tall, very
thin, and hairless. I'm usually

412
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:56,079
a white skin, sometimes it's almost
luminous. They can walk on two or

413
00:29:56,160 --> 00:30:00,680
four legs. They are said to
lure humans into the forest, and actually

414
00:30:00,799 --> 00:30:03,039
some of their calls are difficult to
resist, a little bit like a siren

415
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:08,000
call. It is said that they
are connected to thousands of cases of mysterious

416
00:30:08,039 --> 00:30:12,480
disappearances. They are extremely fast and
very strong in spite of their very thin

417
00:30:12,519 --> 00:30:25,319
appearance. They are blamed on the
disappearances are sometimes blamed on these creepy beings.

418
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:29,640
And the os factor also occurs sometimes
around them. And that, of

419
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:33,440
course is a term coined by Jenny
Randalls where a lot of people have experienced

420
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:37,720
this with paranormal phenomena or UFOs or
whatever, whether forest or whatever, the

421
00:30:37,839 --> 00:30:41,200
area gets deathly quiet. They can't
hear insects, birds or anything. So

422
00:30:41,319 --> 00:30:45,799
what is this a cryptid, a
forest spirit or a complete myth? And

423
00:30:47,039 --> 00:30:49,519
the other thing is that the kind
of dovetails with the missing four one one

424
00:30:49,559 --> 00:30:55,920
stuff. They say it's bad to
wear bright colors, especially red, because

425
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:59,119
it'll attract these things. And they
say to stay in groups, don't get

426
00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:04,359
separated. It sounds suspiciously like missing
four one one advice and now the last

427
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:08,799
part this is one for club.
Okay, here we go, New York

428
00:31:08,839 --> 00:31:14,000
Post October seventeenth, twenty three.
That must be true. Are you ready?

429
00:31:14,839 --> 00:31:22,359
Enormous devil comet heading toward Earth.
Scientists report a huge horned comet three

430
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:27,559
times bigger than Ernest than the Mount
Everest, named twelve P. That's got

431
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:32,880
to be one of the layest names
of the is speeding toward Terra firma.

432
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:37,079
Is it expected to be a visual
by April of the twenty twenty four It

433
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:41,440
appears to have two horns. Now, this may be caused by a by

434
00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:48,680
strangely shaped get this cryovolcanic vents with
some sort of blockage causing material to be

435
00:31:48,839 --> 00:31:56,480
expelled with a weird flow pattern my
words exactly sounds. This is according to

436
00:31:56,759 --> 00:32:01,160
Richard Miles, who is with the
British Astronomical Association. Okay, now it's

437
00:32:01,319 --> 00:32:07,079
uh. The the scientists say that
there is no need despite the trajectory right

438
00:32:07,119 --> 00:32:12,480
now, there is no need to
prepare for deep impact just yet. Oh

439
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:17,319
jeez, doesn't hit us in another
seventy one years. Twenty ninety four it

440
00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:20,839
will be back, So keep your
eyes open. Wow, you'll have to

441
00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:24,440
see this from the the naked eye
at night. Well you yeah, you're

442
00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:28,160
supposed to be able to by April. Yeah, wow, that's crazy.

443
00:32:28,279 --> 00:32:32,240
That's it's like that movie. Don't
look up respond to this that you discussed

444
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:38,680
this. We don't listen to my
presentations because I brought that one up probably

445
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:42,720
a couple of months ago. So
that's all right because I didn't indicate that

446
00:32:42,799 --> 00:32:45,720
it was on. I didn't think
that was necessary. It was a trivial

447
00:32:45,799 --> 00:32:49,200
thing. But what was it?
We thought you were asteroid boy, not

448
00:32:49,279 --> 00:32:53,279
comic boy. Oh they're own on
the same. Remember now they're pretty much

449
00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:59,240
pretty much. Size is what would
differentiates. But that's all right as the

450
00:32:59,279 --> 00:33:04,160
common What was that I said?
This is a comment? Damn yeah,

451
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:07,359
I'll send you some material to show
you the difference. What was the name

452
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:09,400
of That's what I said, a
difference. What was the name of that

453
00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:13,839
comment? That's that? But I'm
glad you brought it up. I try

454
00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:15,200
to get in the middle of here. What was the name of that comment

455
00:33:15,279 --> 00:33:19,039
that came around in the late nineteen
nineties, Remember you could see it.

456
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:22,319
Hil Bob kil Bob Yeah, that's
the one. Those people all got in

457
00:33:22,599 --> 00:33:24,559
and poisoned themselves and they thought something
like that was coming, yes, right,

458
00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:28,640
yeah about that, huh. And
they gave everyone twenty five cents when

459
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:30,880
they laid down and killed themselves because
they thought they'd need change in the in

460
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:36,839
heaven. Yeah, they were okay, imagine to put people had to walk

461
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:38,319
in and find them, like,
I don't know how long it took for

462
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:40,839
them to figure out there was something
going on in the house. They knew

463
00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:44,680
something weird, waspid, you know, you know how weird that group was.

464
00:33:44,799 --> 00:33:46,519
Was the name of that that group, Heaven's Gate, Evan's Gate,

465
00:33:46,599 --> 00:33:52,200
heavns Gate, something there was.
I believe there were twelve guys and eight

466
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:55,559
women for some reason that sticks in
my head that actually did this act.

467
00:33:55,799 --> 00:34:04,400
And all the guys were Michelle Nichols
brother Michelle Nichols from Star Trek. Really

468
00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:07,920
yeah, huh. All the males
had been previously castrated, you know that.

469
00:34:08,159 --> 00:34:13,239
Yeah, because they didn't want to
reproduce something at all. Nothing's that

470
00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:17,639
important. Well maybe the leader wasn't
He just make sure we didn't just didn't

471
00:34:17,679 --> 00:34:21,360
have any competition. That's that's one
way of doing it. Yeah, wow,

472
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:24,280
we have so so there is there
is there some any kind of probability

473
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:27,599
this thing's going to hit us?
Switch? Or is it just going to

474
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,480
fly by? They seem to say, I don't worry about it. Oh

475
00:34:30,559 --> 00:34:35,639
that's not good. Yeah. So
we just talked about that movie Don't Look

476
00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:37,760
Up, which was around about a
year ago. I saw it. I

477
00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:42,239
thought it was terrible. A lot
of people really liked it. I thought

478
00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:45,840
there's like a lot of stupid uh
overacting in it, and it was kind

479
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:49,480
of like that Mas Attacks type of
movie, which I don't like. Well,

480
00:34:49,599 --> 00:34:52,679
it turns out the guy who directed
that also wrote it, I guess,

481
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:55,559
and I forget his name, but
now he's like kind of, you

482
00:34:55,639 --> 00:34:59,639
know, a big wig in Hollywood
because that was a successful movie, had

483
00:34:59,679 --> 00:35:02,960
a lot of big stars in it. As it turns out, some guy

484
00:35:04,119 --> 00:35:09,079
wrote self published a book which is
basically that idea about you know, a

485
00:35:09,159 --> 00:35:12,440
coment is going to hit the earth
or an asteroids is going to hit the

486
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:14,639
earth, and no one wants to
believe it because we live in such a

487
00:35:14,639 --> 00:35:20,280
screwed up society. He self published
the book. Now he is suing that

488
00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,400
production company saying they ripped him off
for that idea, don't look up.

489
00:35:24,039 --> 00:35:28,639
So this stuff happens all the time. You know, there's like frivolous lawsuits,

490
00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:30,760
let's say, and you know they
fight them off all the time,

491
00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:32,519
and a lot of times people just
trying to get money. However, in

492
00:35:32,599 --> 00:35:37,440
this case, this guy took his
self published book, sent it to his

493
00:35:37,599 --> 00:35:43,239
daughter who worked for the production company
who actually made that movie, and they

494
00:35:43,559 --> 00:35:45,880
looked at it and they you know, gave it a pass, and then

495
00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:51,440
two years later they make this very
very successful movie. So this guy's in

496
00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:53,000
for at least five million, ten
million dollars. I guess basically, it's

497
00:35:53,039 --> 00:35:55,679
a cut and drug case. I
didn't really like the movie. I just

498
00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:59,480
thought it was that isn't really how
I mean, if you see it,

499
00:36:00,159 --> 00:36:01,639
it's like three people, the only
three people in the world would know this

500
00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:05,119
thing. It believes this thing is
going to hit, is taking on seriously,

501
00:36:05,159 --> 00:36:08,639
and everyone else isn't. I understand. It's a you know, kind

502
00:36:08,639 --> 00:36:12,880
of a comment on how we are
these days, and I guess that hits

503
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,840
right. But I just don't think
people would act so clownish when there's a

504
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:20,079
chance that this thing really was coming. So don't look up, just don't

505
00:36:20,119 --> 00:36:22,599
go see it. Now, let
me just remind you of when you're listening

506
00:36:22,599 --> 00:36:25,280
to Backlonis Milt Treks, I'll show
here on the Distant Thunder Radio Network.

507
00:36:27,199 --> 00:36:29,559
We're here in pass of the Skeleton
Gang. And see, hey, that's

508
00:36:29,599 --> 00:36:32,079
a good name for a being,
the Skeleton Gang. Excellent talking about movies.

509
00:36:32,199 --> 00:36:36,559
Get ready, both all of us. All right, I have a

510
00:36:36,679 --> 00:36:40,639
confession to make you know. Hold
on, no no, hold on,

511
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:46,679
ralph Or. This past weekend was
some inclement weather here up in the northeast,

512
00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:51,360
so Leis and I decided to stay
in and rent a movie, stream

513
00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:57,360
a movie, as the kids say, and we streamed. We watched Bobby

514
00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:01,760
Bobby. I gotta tell you this, Okay, all right, everyone is

515
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:07,480
believe me, they're laughing off.
Can't have them mic. So it's not

516
00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:12,159
a it's it's you know, I'm
going to say it's not a bad movie.

517
00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:14,440
I gotta say it's not a bad
movie. Now. Having said that,

518
00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:19,039
I also have to say I fell
asleep halfway through. But the idea

519
00:37:19,159 --> 00:37:23,079
of it is actually it's different than
than a lot of other movies, and

520
00:37:23,199 --> 00:37:28,239
especially people live in Bobby Land,
and Bobby has to save Bobby Land.

521
00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:30,920
So she has to go out in
the real world and you do that.

522
00:37:30,119 --> 00:37:34,679
It's every it's it's every sword and
question movie plot that you can think of.

523
00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:37,199
You know, you have to go
on a fat trip and you'll save

524
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:39,800
the world. But it's done.
There's there's there's a sense of human to

525
00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:44,760
it. There's a lot of sense
of human to it. It's talking about

526
00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:50,320
castrating guys. Well, basically,
if you watch this movie, you'll feel

527
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:52,159
that way walking out of it.
But I think that was the intent.

528
00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:58,239
But anyway, but but an interesting
movie from a from a film from a

529
00:37:58,599 --> 00:38:01,960
filmmaking point of view, it was
actually a pretty interesting movie, though I

530
00:38:02,199 --> 00:38:07,039
did fall asleep in the middlement.
But anyway, have you seen anything recently?

531
00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:13,880
Al movies? Clean ones, clean
ones? I'm trying to think of

532
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:17,199
what that's a no, not really
switch? Have you seen anything? What

533
00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:20,039
do you do? What do you
do? You go to movie? Switch?

534
00:38:20,079 --> 00:38:22,480
Or do you watch my at home? Or do you even I've only

535
00:38:22,519 --> 00:38:25,119
been to a couple of movies since
I've moved down here. Yes, okay,

536
00:38:27,079 --> 00:38:29,440
but were they were? They were
the ones where the self won the

537
00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:32,280
wall one of those things I went
to that to the supposed to the last

538
00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:37,360
Halloween movie. Jamie Lee Curtis.
Oh, yeah, she came out of

539
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:39,559
you. Yeah, it was kind
of I was kind of disappointed. Yeah,

540
00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:45,440
and uh, I went to go
see Idiana Jones. Did you really

541
00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:49,039
know? Yeah, and something happened
where I got Uh, I got nauseous

542
00:38:49,119 --> 00:38:52,800
or something. I've never that bad
happened. Yes, maybe I got some

543
00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:57,760
bad popcorn or something. So I
actually left smoked, maybe smoking a little

544
00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:00,639
bit of him. I ordered it
DVD so I know I can finally forget

545
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:04,360
what happens at the end. Is
it that much action? You know?

546
00:39:04,639 --> 00:39:07,760
It? Is it easy? Oh? Yeah, there's just actually it might

547
00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:08,519
be too much. Well, I
mean, is that it was just so

548
00:39:08,639 --> 00:39:12,920
much motion on the screen that it
makes you make emotionsick? Did you have

549
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:15,800
motion sick? No? Just I
just think so come on, you know,

550
00:39:15,119 --> 00:39:19,039
yeah, you're just overdoing it.
Let's see. Here's the thing though,

551
00:39:19,159 --> 00:39:21,760
here's here's the thing about those movies. Okay, first of all,

552
00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:24,000
Harrison for was about one hundred and
twenty years old. Okay, don't look,

553
00:39:24,159 --> 00:39:27,800
don't look good. Jumba of airplanes
and you're getting the girl and all

554
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:30,519
that stuff. Okay, that's past, right, But why do you take

555
00:39:30,679 --> 00:39:34,880
I mean, I'm not saying they
were great movies either, but they were

556
00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:37,599
for their time. They were they
were kind of cool because they brought that

557
00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:40,920
nineteen thirty serials back into movies kind
of and you know, that's that's that's

558
00:39:42,079 --> 00:39:45,360
kind of exciting, you know,
and they were good entertainment. Let's say

559
00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:47,199
some of blockbusters. Let's say,
okay, why do you why do you

560
00:39:47,320 --> 00:39:52,599
go back and and and you know, rip up the whole thing again,

561
00:39:52,719 --> 00:39:54,280
stop the machining, and then come
up with a shitty movie. I don't

562
00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:59,199
you know, why why go through
that unless you come up with some really

563
00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:01,199
really great story and everyone's gonna talk
about, oh man, this is great,

564
00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:05,360
not just that you know, this
is a crummy plot and harrisonal for

565
00:40:05,519 --> 00:40:08,079
it is like really old, you
know, you know what I mean.

566
00:40:08,159 --> 00:40:10,920
So before you were thrown up in
your shoes switch, what did you see

567
00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:15,480
of it? How much did I
see? Yeah? Yeah, what you

568
00:40:15,559 --> 00:40:19,679
know? What from what you saw? Were you impressed and not impressed?

569
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:23,360
I know? It's the the beginning
was was pretty good. They it's some

570
00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:28,039
kind of computer magic where they make
them look young against for the flashback.

571
00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:31,480
There's a bunch of evil Nazis and
you know, fighting on the train that's

572
00:40:31,519 --> 00:40:36,280
okay. And then there's you know, there's uh actually a plot gets a

573
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:40,199
little bit confusing. You know,
all all these all the subterfusion people you

574
00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:44,119
think you can trust, you can't
trust, and uh, you know,

575
00:40:44,239 --> 00:40:46,280
it just got a little bit too
They were I think they were just trying

576
00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:50,960
to uh be too clever. Oh
that's a yeah, that's a common problem.

577
00:40:51,159 --> 00:40:53,960
Yep. And there's this car chase
that just goes on forever, not

578
00:40:54,079 --> 00:40:58,519
not really a car, these little
kind of cart things or whatever. Yeah,

579
00:40:58,559 --> 00:41:01,360
And I don't know to stews hopefully, I don't know if the movie

580
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:05,639
will redeem itself when I actually finish
it or not. Do you know,

581
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:08,639
do you anything about this movie the
Marvels that has come out and is going

582
00:41:08,679 --> 00:41:14,400
to like put Walt Disney into bankruptcy. I know that they stopped publishing the

583
00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:17,000
figures on it because it was doing
so bad. So so if I I'm

584
00:41:17,039 --> 00:41:21,039
not an expert in this, but
if I remember, right, Walt Disney,

585
00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:27,079
Disney bought the rights to make the
Marvel movies, right, they bought

586
00:41:27,239 --> 00:41:34,480
Marvel Studios from Marvel and they and
they figured, I mean, wow,

587
00:41:34,639 --> 00:41:37,079
that's the Golden goose. You know, all we have to do is make

588
00:41:37,159 --> 00:41:42,000
once again, make some reasonably good
movies and people are going to go flock

589
00:41:42,039 --> 00:41:45,119
to see them because people by the
still by the comic books, like crazy

590
00:41:45,679 --> 00:41:49,679
what Spider Man has done and they
didn't do it. This movie is supposed

591
00:41:49,679 --> 00:41:53,440
to be so bad. It's historically
low as far as a Disney movie opening,

592
00:41:53,559 --> 00:41:58,000
and you know, people going and
seeing. How bad can it be

593
00:41:58,159 --> 00:42:01,760
that people aren't going to see a
Marvel comic bovie. Oh I did go

594
00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:06,440
went to go see another one a
while back. Uh, what was it

595
00:42:06,519 --> 00:42:10,719
the Eternals? Oh? Is it? Huge cast? And it was my

596
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:15,199
god, I I kept myself from
walking out about six times because it was

597
00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:20,320
so bad, so boring, boring, A lot of people said, because

598
00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:22,400
the subject matter, this is one
of the things one of the uh sets

599
00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:29,400
of characters created by Jack Kirby back
in the day, ye a comic book.

600
00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:32,079
So is it like a lot of
people sitting around talking, you know,

601
00:42:32,119 --> 00:42:35,199
a lot of a lot of talking, nothing really going on, that

602
00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:37,880
type of boring. Well, there's
some of that. I mean there's there's

603
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:42,119
action and they and they move all
over the place and they have all these

604
00:42:42,159 --> 00:42:45,360
different characters and a lot of it's
kind of woll compolitically correct, you know,

605
00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:47,559
you're just kind of groan and then
uh, you know, it's just

606
00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:51,320
uh well, it just didn't have
it. They just didn't have a script.

607
00:42:51,559 --> 00:42:55,519
The action are the action scenes filmed
at night? Uh you mean,

608
00:42:55,639 --> 00:43:00,519
like a Supermanagersman of Batman. What
disgrace, the disgrace that they would have

609
00:43:00,559 --> 00:43:02,599
a movie like that. And I
can't even remember the get you know,

610
00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:07,039
most of the scenes. I just
yeah, yeah, it's it's gone into

611
00:43:07,079 --> 00:43:10,639
that amnesia file because it just wasn't
very good. Now, Superman Batman is

612
00:43:10,679 --> 00:43:16,480
a perfect example of the I don't
want to say stupidity of Hollywood, because

613
00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:22,800
they still make a lot of money, but of the of the unawareness of

614
00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:27,920
Hollywood that you would anyone who knows. I mean, it's too simplistic to

615
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:30,880
say if Batman and Supman had to
fight, all bat all Suitman had to

616
00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:34,280
do is just hit Batman once in
the head and that's it, right,

617
00:43:34,400 --> 00:43:38,960
fights over. But they actually crafted
a whole movie around Superman fighting Batman,

618
00:43:39,639 --> 00:43:45,360
and with Ben Affleck pulled out a
rehab to join it, okay, join

619
00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:49,559
in the fun. And what happened
was I forget who the director was,

620
00:43:49,679 --> 00:43:53,599
but the action scenes, which is
basically you know, Suitman throwing Batman around,

621
00:43:53,639 --> 00:43:57,960
Batman throwing Supman around, you know, buildings exploding, et cetera,

622
00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:01,920
et cetera. Came out so bad
that they did a few you know,

623
00:44:04,679 --> 00:44:07,840
twists of the plot and they made
the fight scenes at night and you can't

624
00:44:07,039 --> 00:44:09,519
see them, you know, so
all the bad and when I'm saying there

625
00:44:09,519 --> 00:44:12,760
were so bad, the special effects
were so bad. You could see stuff

626
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:15,639
around the edges and stuff, you
know, and they just turned it into

627
00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:19,000
night. That to me is so
cynical for someone who's you know, paying

628
00:44:19,039 --> 00:44:22,440
twelve bucks fifty and bucks worth,
you know for a movie ticket and you

629
00:44:22,519 --> 00:44:25,239
can't see it. Same thing with
that latest Batman movie with that dopey guy

630
00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:30,079
in it, which was actually had
some really good stuff going for because he's

631
00:44:30,119 --> 00:44:34,320
kind of weird and Batman. I
think you know that the guy from the

632
00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:40,320
Twilight series was in it, Robert
Patterson and nine. It is so doc

633
00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:43,960
you have no idea where you are, what's going on, who's in the

634
00:44:44,039 --> 00:44:47,039
scene. It's just terrible, just
terrible. But that's how they cover up

635
00:44:47,039 --> 00:44:51,920
with bad special effects or not spending
the money on ye know, really good

636
00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:58,039
stuff. I him Superman versus Batman
terrible, just absolutely terrible, terrible.

637
00:44:58,440 --> 00:45:02,440
But Disney owns Star Wars right as
well, So they're really loading up a

638
00:45:02,519 --> 00:45:06,800
lot of Star Wars stuff, right
because I know people will pay to see

639
00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:09,679
it. But they're they've got a
marketing juggernaut going. But even though Star

640
00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:13,599
Wars movies that they've made or are
they're making, have they Yeah, they've

641
00:45:13,599 --> 00:45:15,360
made a couple. I guess they've
been Okay, I guess they're the latest

642
00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:19,760
ones. Okay, the Star Wars
fans are okay with Disney owning Star Wars

643
00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:23,800
apparently. I just read who's that
guy Driver? Oh yeah, yeah,

644
00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:28,000
yeah, yeah, I know,
he said, Adam D. Driver.

645
00:45:28,599 --> 00:45:31,000
I read an article the other day
it said that to this day he still

646
00:45:31,159 --> 00:45:39,719
gets confronted by people out in public
that go, you killed Han Solo,

647
00:45:40,039 --> 00:45:46,280
So yeah, you killed Han Solo. It's tough out there. Yeah yeah,

648
00:45:47,079 --> 00:45:50,559
yeah, well, I mean that's
the reputation he has now, so

649
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:54,599
you know, they goes his career. We also saw watched the third season

650
00:45:54,639 --> 00:45:59,559
of the cod and if you're a
Star Trek fan, I can't recommend that

651
00:45:59,639 --> 00:46:01,000
more high. That is a really
good Do you watch that at all?

652
00:46:01,119 --> 00:46:07,519
Switchy no, but I'll tell you
uh uh an really excellent. One is

653
00:46:07,679 --> 00:46:10,880
Strange New Worlds. Yeah, yeah, I got I just got the second

654
00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:16,880
season on DVD and hold your thought. But it deals with Christopher Pike.

655
00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:23,119
This is before the original TV series
starts, is what Spock is in it,

656
00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:25,639
and and you know some of the
some of the people that are going

657
00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:30,760
to become somebody so and it it
is really that. The first season anyway

658
00:46:30,199 --> 00:46:37,440
was just absolutely superb interesting. I've
never I've never watched Picard and I've you

659
00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:40,159
know, I've seen the ads for
what you were just you know series you

660
00:46:40,159 --> 00:46:44,079
were just talking about. There's also
a Star Trek Discovery and I started watching

661
00:46:44,159 --> 00:46:46,519
that and I stopped because I thought
they kind of went off the rails at

662
00:46:46,519 --> 00:46:51,199
one point. But but Strange New
Worlds man that I don't know about the

663
00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:53,960
second season yet, but it is
so well done. I was just really

664
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:59,559
impressed. One of the most impressive. Uh Star Trek. Actually this is

665
00:46:59,599 --> 00:47:01,199
a PREQ, but you know,
one of the ones to follow up the

666
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:07,079
original series. Interesting. You know, I remember as a kid the original

667
00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:14,440
Star Trek coming out and being fascinated
by it. And I've heard it at

668
00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:20,480
the Star Trek conventions. The the
groups are trek Os or trek Ease,

669
00:47:20,719 --> 00:47:23,199
depending on which you like the original
or you like the next generation, and

670
00:47:24,159 --> 00:47:30,559
they really get into it. It's
really kind of interesting. But Captain Kirk,

671
00:47:30,639 --> 00:47:32,800
you know serious, well it's still
you know, I watched some of

672
00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:37,599
those and what they did was they
remastered them and they punched up the special

673
00:47:37,639 --> 00:47:42,559
effects just a little bit. They
didn't want to overdo it to make it

674
00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:46,480
not kind of fit the series.
But their attitude was, let's let's make

675
00:47:46,559 --> 00:47:50,320
them a little better. Let's make
them the way they would have made them

676
00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:53,480
if they had the time and money. So I'm not a purist, you

677
00:47:53,519 --> 00:47:58,800
know. I think it's They didn't
really change the dialogue or cut scenes or

678
00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:01,280
anything like that, but made some
of the you've got more angles of the

679
00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:05,880
ship passing over the planet. Yeah
yeah, yeah, just some things like

680
00:48:05,960 --> 00:48:07,960
that. So they really really did
a nice job. And man, you

681
00:48:08,039 --> 00:48:15,000
can still get I can still get
captivated by some of the original shows original

682
00:48:15,119 --> 00:48:19,320
series, guy, you know,
the ones are okay, But I'm completely

683
00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:22,719
sold on the Star Attract the original
series. I'm with you you yeah,

684
00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:24,519
yeah, yeah. No. The
thing about PICAD, though, which was

685
00:48:24,800 --> 00:48:29,840
interesting too, is the first couple
of seasons and now in this third season

686
00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:35,480
and they actually, well what they
were able to do is, you'll be

687
00:48:35,599 --> 00:48:39,000
in if a cod is in,
he's like the superhero in the galaxy.

688
00:48:39,360 --> 00:48:43,559
He's around, he's kind of putting
out all these forest fires, and you

689
00:48:43,639 --> 00:48:45,800
know, he has to do this, he has to find this person,

690
00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:47,039
he has to get in this rocket
ship and stuff like that. And he

691
00:48:47,079 --> 00:48:52,880
said, all these space opera adventures
very much like Robert Heiland and Isaac Asimov

692
00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:59,000
and those kinds of writers. And
but what's cool about it is that he'll

693
00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:01,719
be in a tight spot, you
know, and he's surrounded and and you

694
00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:05,920
know he's Outgune and everything, and
all of a sudden, someone will jump

695
00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:08,360
in and then someone from the series, let's say Wolf or someone it's someone

696
00:49:08,400 --> 00:49:12,480
from another Star Trek series coming in
and saving him. And they're kind of

697
00:49:12,519 --> 00:49:15,199
cross pollinating, and it's very cool
the way they do it. The problem

698
00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:20,000
is is that the beginning, they
these characters come at you as a surprise,

699
00:49:20,119 --> 00:49:22,119
and it's really kind of cool.
Oh wow, well there's uh,

700
00:49:22,559 --> 00:49:23,920
you know, there's Jeordie, there's
you know what I mean, you know,

701
00:49:24,159 --> 00:49:28,360
and and it's very cool. There's
data you know, it's very cool

702
00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:30,800
how they introduce the characters. But
at the beginning of every show they say

703
00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:35,519
special guests, and they're gonna say
it and you're going to know that what's

704
00:49:35,559 --> 00:49:37,719
his name is in this we're going
to show up? Yeah, yeah,

705
00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:40,199
which is but they didn't do that
in the third season. Very good.

706
00:49:40,280 --> 00:49:44,920
I recommend that for anybody anyone who
likes that old kind of space offer type

707
00:49:44,960 --> 00:49:47,840
stuff and like Star Trek God is
very very good. However, he's getting

708
00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:52,119
very he's also getting very old.
You know, he's running around he's about

709
00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:55,719
nine years old for somebody who really
wasn't that From what I've read in the

710
00:49:55,760 --> 00:50:00,960
past, he was not that set
on taking the job to the beginning because

711
00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:04,519
he really he was a classically trained
and Shakespeare and Shakesperian actor and he's like,

712
00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:08,039
you want me to go play trick, come on? And he took

713
00:50:08,079 --> 00:50:14,199
it very begrudgingly or you know whatever, reluctantly, and he's really turned into

714
00:50:14,719 --> 00:50:19,000
the guy the face of the franchise. Well, you know what the reluctance

715
00:50:19,159 --> 00:50:23,559
was or what what overcame the reluctance
money, I'm not going to waste my

716
00:50:23,719 --> 00:50:28,000
time, Okay, yes, yeah, let's look into this as you know,

717
00:50:28,199 --> 00:50:32,199
Men's explanation. They do the same
thing with Strange New Worlds, where

718
00:50:32,199 --> 00:50:36,800
they start to introduce characters that are
going to become somebody later. Oh that's

719
00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:40,000
cool, yes, James, a
young James T. Kirk shows that cool.

720
00:50:40,159 --> 00:50:45,519
Yeah, yeah, yeah, they
stick to the yeah Kirk. Rather,

721
00:50:45,679 --> 00:50:50,920
Spock has his girlfriend who dumps him
in the second season of the original

722
00:50:51,599 --> 00:50:54,280
dumb Spot. Haven't been jumped yet, So Spock gets dumped. Is that

723
00:50:54,320 --> 00:51:00,559
what you're saying? Well, remember
the fight them up time and oh to

724
00:51:00,639 --> 00:51:04,800
Pring Spock has to go back to
uh to make everything to make sure.

725
00:51:04,880 --> 00:51:07,840
Yeah, the girl's name was to
Pring. To Pring, Okay, yes,

726
00:51:07,039 --> 00:51:12,000
to Pring played by a great actress. She's an actress. I've seen

727
00:51:12,039 --> 00:51:14,719
her in other things, but I
didn't realize it was the same woman.

728
00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:16,599
You know how sometimes you have that
shock like, oh my god. This

729
00:51:16,639 --> 00:51:21,280
is usually I'm pretty good at that
picking out people, but not always.

730
00:51:21,360 --> 00:51:23,599
Yeah, yeah, yeah, but
yeah, so it's a it's the same

731
00:51:23,679 --> 00:51:30,719
strange world. Yeah, the uh
the Domen of Elas or what was it

732
00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:35,360
the and another one she you talk
about, you know, a beautiful woman

733
00:51:36,159 --> 00:51:40,440
and she was in like I see
her in another TV show era track episode.

734
00:51:40,559 --> 00:51:46,039
Yeah, and this woman was stunning
and I think it's Friends New again.

735
00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:52,760
Yes, she's she's some time a
million, like sixties and seventies shows.

736
00:51:53,519 --> 00:51:55,559
You're watching the show and you see
her and you go, wait a

737
00:51:55,639 --> 00:52:00,239
minute, she's she's a star Trek. Yeah. I knew these guys in

738
00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:05,559
college. They used to watch they'd
have stat Trek binges put they were on

739
00:52:05,679 --> 00:52:08,719
tape and every time and they had
like four or five phrases, and every

740
00:52:08,760 --> 00:52:12,960

what a show we have for you

786
00:55:59,639 --> 00:56:04,239
tonight. No JJ girl, Sorry, no cocoa, but switch led Steve

787
00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:07,840
Wood is here with us, Switchy. Great to be here tonight talking about

788
00:56:07,880 --> 00:56:10,400
movies. Yeah, funny. Also, Secrety Chief is with us. A

789
00:56:10,559 --> 00:56:17,360
few Twinkie bunces into the day of
the night, Willie Club w c Hey,

790
00:56:17,440 --> 00:56:22,840
mackiew. I'm really I keep looking
at this package of Twinkies and the

791
00:56:22,920 --> 00:56:25,039
show is pretty solid, so I
haven't opened it yet. Okay, all

792
00:56:25,119 --> 00:56:30,519
right, still time. Well,
I'm on quickly. I wanted to correct

793
00:56:30,599 --> 00:56:35,760
something that I discussed earlier with switch
Yes. I'm big enough to apologize to

794
00:56:35,840 --> 00:56:43,400
say that I was wrong. We
talked about Wendy's yes and it would Lean

795
00:56:43,599 --> 00:56:47,920
romantically rightfully corrected me. It was
Tim Horton's. Tim Hortons his own and

796
00:56:49,039 --> 00:56:52,519
they spun them off for billions of
dollars, and so I just wanted to

797
00:56:52,639 --> 00:56:59,519
correct that and also state that further
say, Burger King ended up acquiring uh

798
00:57:00,119 --> 00:57:05,559
Mortons after that. Wow huh about
that? Tim Hortons was owned by Wendy's

799
00:57:05,599 --> 00:57:09,599
and then they spun it off for
twelve billion and then no, Burger King

800
00:57:09,639 --> 00:57:14,239
bought them for twelve billion. So
the hamburger industry loved them. So I

801
00:57:14,440 --> 00:57:17,239
I just wanted to own up to
the fact that I had given out some

802
00:57:17,400 --> 00:57:22,239
misinformation. Really Switch kind of embarrassed
about it because that's not you know,

803
00:57:22,320 --> 00:57:27,360
I usually am pretty accurate, but
I guess I'm human too. Let's see

804
00:57:27,360 --> 00:57:44,440
how magnanimous Switch is gonna be.
Uh really yeah? Oh yeah, okay,

805
00:57:44,800 --> 00:57:50,960
waitning for Switches reply nothing. He
said enough. I mean to have

806
00:57:51,079 --> 00:57:53,679
him saying, you know, I'm
big enough to take it. I mean,

807
00:57:53,760 --> 00:58:00,400
I knew. I knew Bob,
Bob Evans, Bob Evans and Eastern

808
00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:02,000
Ohio many years ago. Okay,
don't rub it in, Switchy, don't

809
00:58:02,039 --> 00:58:07,599
rub it in. So anyway,
we were talking early about that's okay,

810
00:58:07,199 --> 00:58:13,760
we were we were talking earlier about
movies, different kind of movies we've seen

811
00:58:13,800 --> 00:58:16,719
you know what, most of the
science fiction movies. A really good movie.

812
00:58:16,840 --> 00:58:21,199
You don't hear it discussed very much, but it was very well done,

813
00:58:21,320 --> 00:58:25,199
very intelligent, maybe a little too
deep. It was Contact with Amy

814
00:58:25,280 --> 00:58:30,440
Adams. Do you see that?
That was excellent? Yeah, really deep

815
00:58:30,559 --> 00:58:34,760
thinking type of a movie, but
well done. I really well done science

816
00:58:35,079 --> 00:58:39,320
or was it what's your name?
Jody Foster? No, that was Jerdy

817
00:58:39,360 --> 00:58:43,800
Foster was in the big one.
There was Contact, first contract, Wait,

818
00:58:43,840 --> 00:58:45,199
man, that is contact? What
was the one with Amy Adams?

819
00:58:45,320 --> 00:58:51,159
Just it was just about three or
four years ago, first Contact. I

820
00:58:51,199 --> 00:58:53,800
think it might be I'm not sure, but these people that might have been

821
00:58:53,920 --> 00:58:58,679
Jody Foster. And then maybe there's
another one, the Jodie Foster one is

822
00:58:58,880 --> 00:59:01,760
listen. That's such a good movie. Stolen scene from that for about from

823
00:59:02,840 --> 00:59:07,760
at least five or six books.
That's a great movie. That's called Contact,

824
00:59:07,800 --> 00:59:14,039
written by what's his name? The
Billions and Billions guy and Sagan,

825
00:59:15,360 --> 00:59:22,480
Yeah, by Kyle Sagan, And
once again a good book done very well

826
00:59:22,559 --> 00:59:25,320
into a movie. And they usually
don't work that way, but there was

827
00:59:25,360 --> 00:59:31,000
one later on with Amy Addams's Arrival. I'm sorry, yeah, it's called

828
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:37,360
a Rival and you have to kind
of follow it because it it's one of

829
00:59:37,400 --> 00:59:39,840
these things where you know, there
is no time. You know, everything

830
00:59:39,920 --> 00:59:43,639
is happening all at once. It's
it's just time as an allusion to us.

831
00:59:43,679 --> 00:59:45,719
And it really kind of explains that
in a way that you can almost

832
00:59:45,800 --> 00:59:50,360
understand. She's a good actress.
So that was very good. The Contact

833
00:59:50,440 --> 00:59:54,320
itself was once again, very good
movie. Memorable movie, you know,

834
00:59:54,320 --> 00:59:59,559
an entertaining movie, you know,
and and even though that was thirty years

835
00:59:59,559 --> 01:00:02,679
ago, you know, that turns
out to be like something that would happen

836
01:00:02,800 --> 01:00:07,000
these days. You know, where
this person who you know, did this

837
01:00:07,119 --> 01:00:10,760
heroic journey after all these trials and
tribulations. You know, she comes back

838
01:00:10,800 --> 01:00:15,239
in half the people don't believe her, you know, so you know,

839
01:00:15,440 --> 01:00:17,880
kind of bell That was his favorite
movie. Yeah, it was a good

840
01:00:17,960 --> 01:00:22,199
movie. It really was. Watched
that thing all the time. You'd always

841
01:00:22,239 --> 01:00:29,519
talk about it. Another good movie
was the one where from I've got the

842
01:00:29,559 --> 01:00:32,920
name of it, we have Mad
Damon is stuck on Mas. You see

843
01:00:32,960 --> 01:00:39,079
that one, Yeah, a bunch
of times. Maybe it was called The

844
01:00:39,119 --> 01:00:44,320
Marsian, the Martian. Once you
do on your game tonight, there is

845
01:00:44,639 --> 01:00:49,159
switch you know that that's a movie
with like a real sense of human to

846
01:00:49,280 --> 01:00:50,760
it, you know what I mean. It seems like I mean, the

847
01:00:50,800 --> 01:00:53,280
plot is basically someone who's stranded on
mas and they can't get to him for

848
01:00:53,519 --> 01:00:59,320
like years and they believe he's dead
and so on. But there's a sense

849
01:00:59,320 --> 01:01:02,639
of human to a is he he
uses every little you know, Paul thirteen,

850
01:01:02,679 --> 01:01:06,679
where they use all these kind of
different you know, items and everything

851
01:01:06,760 --> 01:01:09,440
to kind of survive, and that's
what he does. And really good.

852
01:01:09,480 --> 01:01:13,039
That's a really good movie. Yeah, it's a great Like I said,

853
01:01:13,039 --> 01:01:15,880
I've seen it a bunch of times. Yeah, it's a go to,

854
01:01:15,159 --> 01:01:19,360
like you if you're gonna watch something, but you I don't know, if

855
01:01:19,360 --> 01:01:22,079
you stay awake for the whole thing, watch it again. Yeah, he

856
01:01:22,239 --> 01:01:25,280
sciences the ship out of it,
is what he says. Yeah, yeah,

857
01:01:25,360 --> 01:01:28,920
yeah, yeah, really good.
And a lot of disco music.

858
01:01:29,360 --> 01:01:32,239
Oh yeah, that's right. Yeah, yeah, he just happens to bring

859
01:01:32,280 --> 01:01:36,840
the disco music. One of the
other crew members is big in disco and

860
01:01:37,280 --> 01:01:38,679
he's always left. Yeah, and
it's he's like, she has the most

861
01:01:38,719 --> 01:01:44,039
horrible taste in music and that's all
he has. And he's listening to I'm

862
01:01:44,119 --> 01:01:46,719
sure the soundtrack probably didn't cost him
a ton of money, but good for

863
01:01:46,800 --> 01:01:51,360
those people. Who's who's you know
song he had on it? Yeah,

864
01:01:51,719 --> 01:01:54,559
that's the easiest way to make money
in the world is to write a song

865
01:01:54,719 --> 01:01:59,800
for something that's popular. Who's the
guy who put on The Brady Bunch?

866
01:02:00,719 --> 01:02:04,360
He was the executive producer. He's
like very well known, you know,

867
01:02:04,440 --> 01:02:10,039
Lenond Schwartzman or something something they did. Remember from Lives of the Rich and

868
01:02:10,119 --> 01:02:15,039
Famous? Remember that show Leech.
Yeah, they go and they visit this

869
01:02:15,159 --> 01:02:19,679
guy and he lives in this incredible
house in Malibu out over the cliffs.

870
01:02:19,679 --> 01:02:22,400
It's probably flowing in the ocean now, but at the time, beautiful,

871
01:02:22,519 --> 01:02:27,119
beautiful, beautiful, And they go, how did you you know what show?

872
01:02:27,199 --> 01:02:29,519
What did you do to afford this? He since, I wrote the

873
01:02:29,639 --> 01:02:32,679
theme song for The Brady Bunch and
that paid for this place, you know,

874
01:02:34,079 --> 01:02:37,239
because it's every time that was played, he got a check. He

875
01:02:37,320 --> 01:02:39,199
got a check. Yeah, it's
nice. Nice if you're in that business,

876
01:02:39,639 --> 01:02:42,719
Go ahead, switch it. You
look like you're about to say something.

877
01:02:43,480 --> 01:02:45,960
No, I was just thinking about
movies I walked out on and another

878
01:02:46,039 --> 01:02:50,920
one was what was it the Riverboat
Cruise or whatever. The one based on

879
01:02:51,039 --> 01:02:54,559
the Disney rhyne with the rock Oh
yeah, that was fair Yeah, yeah,

880
01:02:55,039 --> 01:02:59,480
famously. Yeah, yeah, you
want to see that. You want

881
01:02:59,519 --> 01:03:00,760
to see that in the movies I
went to see. In the movie,

882
01:03:00,800 --> 01:03:02,800
I thought, oh, it's going
to be just a put the mind down

883
01:03:02,880 --> 01:03:07,519
rewind yeah, accident, it'll be
fun. Yeah. And they got to

884
01:03:07,639 --> 01:03:14,239
a point where they were trying to
copy Pirates of the Caribbean. It just

885
01:03:14,320 --> 01:03:17,119
went, it went so far off
the rails. I thought, what is

886
01:03:17,280 --> 01:03:20,440
this crap? And I watched it
for a little longer and I thought,

887
01:03:20,559 --> 01:03:23,039
no, I'm out of here.
The Disney they were using Disney property.

888
01:03:23,079 --> 01:03:25,440
They did the River Cruise. Yeah. I don't know if you ever been

889
01:03:25,480 --> 01:03:29,519
on that, but that's what it
was. And then they parted to the

890
01:03:29,599 --> 01:03:34,039
Caribbean. You know, they just
dig right down there in Hollywood and wow,

891
01:03:34,320 --> 01:03:36,599
pick it up. But those are
the kind of movies I would I

892
01:03:36,760 --> 01:03:39,280
watch at home. I would wouldn't
even waste the time. I take it

893
01:03:39,360 --> 01:03:45,639
on either worth just for the popcorn. But once the popcorn is gone and

894
01:03:46,679 --> 01:03:52,480
a stage left. If any of
you watched the Disney movie up yeah with

895
01:03:52,880 --> 01:03:58,079
Yeah, it's a cartoon movie,
but I didn't go to see it.

896
01:03:58,159 --> 01:04:00,960
I was watching it, like on
Netflix or something kind. I think I

897
01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:03,000
probably made I don't think I made
ten minutes I shut it off. Yeah

898
01:04:03,039 --> 01:04:08,159
it's depressing. Yea, it is
depressing. It's a depressing, brutally depressing.

899
01:04:08,239 --> 01:04:11,639
I'm sorry. Kids like such such
big ratings. Yeah, I mean

900
01:04:12,320 --> 01:04:15,440
everybody's raving about it. I thought
this is absolute crap y. Yeah,

901
01:04:15,440 --> 01:04:17,719
it's horrible. I got to say
this lowest is toobic. For some reason,

902
01:04:17,880 --> 01:04:21,920
kids like that movie. They they
could identify with that movie, which

903
01:04:23,000 --> 01:04:27,119
is, you know, when you
looking at it in real life, when

904
01:04:27,159 --> 01:04:30,119
you say the guy, you know
they wanted to do something she dies.

905
01:04:30,360 --> 01:04:31,079
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Yeah, it's terrible. Yeah, you know

906
01:04:31,199 --> 01:04:34,519
it's it's horrible, you know the
poor guy. Hell, that's what it

907
01:04:34,679 --> 01:04:42,559
is. Let's see. There's I
was almost watch for probably the fiftieth time

908
01:04:42,599 --> 01:04:45,679
the other night. It was the
Original War of the World. We've talked

909
01:04:45,679 --> 01:04:49,760
about that before as compared to the
Tom Cruise War of the Worlds, which

910
01:04:49,840 --> 01:04:55,920
is also directed by Steven Spielberg.
But the Original War of the World is

911
01:04:56,119 --> 01:05:00,119
it's it's the original the book.
The story takes place in Britain, but

912
01:05:00,840 --> 01:05:02,800
in the fifty two to fifty one
version of Why of the World. Gene

913
01:05:02,840 --> 01:05:09,000
Kelly is in it, and they
really kind of stick to it the way

914
01:05:09,039 --> 01:05:11,360
that the story stuck to it.
I mean, the story has lots of

915
01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:15,559
detail in it, but they basically
stick to the same kind of being of

916
01:05:15,599 --> 01:05:19,559
the story. And what's cool in
that movie is the special effects are really

917
01:05:19,599 --> 01:05:24,159
good in the in the old movie, because the spaceships look good. These

918
01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:28,599
walking there's those towers look good when
the cut and the cellar and they they

919
01:05:28,679 --> 01:05:31,119
see like the finger, you know
that they first you first see when their

920
01:05:31,239 --> 01:05:35,280
ends up close. It's cool.
The way they at the end that they

921
01:05:35,320 --> 01:05:41,159
all die is very cool. And
I saw the tom Cruise one maybe two

922
01:05:41,280 --> 01:05:45,760
years ago maybe, and it's not
like that. I mean this there's not.

923
01:05:45,079 --> 01:05:48,000
There's it's not a completely terrible movie
that the latest version of Ae of

924
01:05:48,000 --> 01:05:51,239
the World's. It's not. There's
some really good good scenes and that lots

925
01:05:51,239 --> 01:05:56,039
of action scenes, you know,
kind of like battle scenes. But once

926
01:05:56,079 --> 01:05:59,920
again, it doesn't make any sense. You know that the whole planet is

927
01:06:00,239 --> 01:06:06,119
destroyed except Cambridge, Massachusetts where his
in laws. We're up there. You're

928
01:06:06,280 --> 01:06:11,280
having a crossan doing in the New
York times, cross red puzzle. All

929
01:06:11,320 --> 01:06:14,320
the stuff is going on around them, and if he turns the kids to

930
01:06:14,400 --> 01:06:15,880
it. And I've said this so
many times, it's in that book right

931
01:06:15,880 --> 01:06:18,840
in front of you. Yeah.
The only damage there is that they haven't

932
01:06:18,920 --> 01:06:24,000
raked the leaves up yet, you
know. I mean, it's really pretty

933
01:06:25,079 --> 01:06:28,519
I don't know. The good thing
about that was we had Jean Barrant and

934
01:06:28,760 --> 01:06:32,360
Robinson right in there playing the in
laws. That was pretty cool. That

935
01:06:32,440 --> 01:06:36,320
was a nice touch, you know. Getting back to the original, I

936
01:06:36,519 --> 01:06:40,119
have that on an audio, you
know, I got it on a CD

937
01:06:40,280 --> 01:06:44,679
or something. I really enjoy that. I don't know. It was good

938
01:06:44,800 --> 01:06:46,960
watching it, you know, but
now because it's so old looking and everything,

939
01:06:47,239 --> 01:06:50,440
but I really enjoyed listening listen to
it. Interested in the room.

940
01:06:51,039 --> 01:06:56,880
You never be put the lights down
low and just listen to the audio of

941
01:06:57,000 --> 01:07:01,719
thatfort I can. Yeah. Yeah, the way he describes everything in detail

942
01:07:02,920 --> 01:07:08,760
in the narration, narrator watch it. I have to listen to that talk

943
01:07:08,800 --> 01:07:14,599
about the special record they made.
Now it's I get all these audios of

944
01:07:14,679 --> 01:07:19,400
old radio shows and everything, and
one of them is the original you know,

945
01:07:19,440 --> 01:07:24,360
the nineteen fifty two whatever movie.
But it's just the and I just

946
01:07:24,840 --> 01:07:29,400
I love audio anyways, I listen
to old radio shows. But that movie,

947
01:07:29,559 --> 01:07:32,480
to me, it adds so much
to it if you just listen to

948
01:07:32,679 --> 01:07:38,960
it, you know, without seeing
any visuals. There's a narrator. There's

949
01:07:38,960 --> 01:07:43,280
a narrator in in the movie itself, you know the movie right along then

950
01:07:43,320 --> 01:07:47,199
it's all the voices. I mean, it's the same thing, but it's

951
01:07:47,800 --> 01:07:55,880
it's so different when you listen to
it versus watching the film version. You

952
01:07:56,039 --> 01:08:00,039
picture things so much differently. Yeah, that's cool. They look like because

953
01:08:00,079 --> 01:08:05,800
he describes what these warm light things
look like. And if you hadn't seen

954
01:08:05,840 --> 01:08:08,880
the movie and then you watch a
movie, you wouldn't believe it's the same

955
01:08:08,920 --> 01:08:12,760
one. Right, Yeah, that's
cool, but could start a war of

956
01:08:12,760 --> 01:08:16,159
the world's version where it's it's all
narrated. It's it's the story is told.

957
01:08:16,640 --> 01:08:19,840
Uh, Liam Neeson is the narrator. He's he's playing the protagonist.

958
01:08:20,359 --> 01:08:24,640
And uh, you know the music, and that's where they use the music

959
01:08:24,720 --> 01:08:27,399
from the Moody Blues. Oh yeah, sure, yes, yeah, yeah,

960
01:08:27,479 --> 01:08:34,520
yes, that justin Heywood. Oh
that movie that song something Forever Autumn,

961
01:08:35,119 --> 01:08:39,880
Forever Autumn that's in there, and
and other other music. I mean,

962
01:08:39,920 --> 01:08:43,840
it's it's so well done. It's
the scene where the uh uh,

963
01:08:44,199 --> 01:08:48,199
the the the tripods are there and
there's the the one of the ships kind

964
01:08:48,239 --> 01:08:50,680
of gets the better of one of
them and collapses, and you're thinking,

965
01:08:50,840 --> 01:08:54,880
you know, the big cheer goes
up, and then they come back and

966
01:08:55,000 --> 01:08:59,760
annihilate the boats, annihilate the good
guys. It's really really, really well

967
01:08:59,800 --> 01:09:01,399
done. It carries you through the
whole story. That's why people in the

968
01:09:01,439 --> 01:09:04,880
book they love the radio. I
mean before television, you know, you

969
01:09:04,960 --> 01:09:10,359
know, you people gather around the
radio and it's more of a you know,

970
01:09:11,039 --> 01:09:14,319
you have to make up the visuals
in your mind when you hear some

971
01:09:14,439 --> 01:09:19,279
person a personal thing. It's all
right in that one. You can picture

972
01:09:20,560 --> 01:09:25,960
how the people actually were afraid of
this thing. When you listen to it,

973
01:09:25,960 --> 01:09:29,840
because it's the you know they broadcast, they bring a bulletin in.

974
01:09:30,279 --> 01:09:33,159
You know, they're cutting the show. The radio show is just like on

975
01:09:33,520 --> 01:09:39,119
the movie There uh well, the
radio pot there there is. They're at

976
01:09:39,119 --> 01:09:43,840
a dance hall listening to Vonn Monroe
or somebody. People are dancing Saturday night.

977
01:09:44,560 --> 01:09:47,439
All of a sudden they cut in
with a bulletin that there's something going

978
01:09:47,479 --> 01:09:51,800
on out in New Jersey. And
then we go back to the music again

979
01:09:51,840 --> 01:09:56,600
and they're dancing just the original one. Right. Yes they're cut in three

980
01:09:56,680 --> 01:10:00,119
or four times, but that really
adds to it. And I cannot a

981
01:10:00,159 --> 01:10:03,800
stand why if someone came in after
the first five minutes, when they explained

982
01:10:03,800 --> 01:10:08,119
that it's only a ship, oh
you wouldn't know, they could be very

983
01:10:08,199 --> 01:10:12,039
concerned. Yep, yep. That
that was Mills, New Jersey, right,

984
01:10:12,279 --> 01:10:15,039
that was nineteen thirty eight. What's
his name? Weuson Wells, the

985
01:10:15,159 --> 01:10:18,600
only person they stay in Hollywood,
started his way at the top and worked

986
01:10:18,640 --> 01:10:24,720
his way down. But the way
that they did that they knew. I

987
01:10:24,880 --> 01:10:30,279
think I think they hoped that something
would happen that night, just knowing Austin

988
01:10:30,319 --> 01:10:31,960
Wells. And if you see the
press conference that he gives like two or

989
01:10:31,960 --> 01:10:35,199
three days later, where it's like, oh, we didn't know, Oh

990
01:10:35,319 --> 01:10:39,000
we didn't know. You could tell
that he's just inside He's saying, Wow,

991
01:10:39,119 --> 01:10:42,199
I've just become you know, this
is it. You know this this

992
01:10:42,479 --> 01:10:44,680
gimmick made it for me, you
know. And he wasn't, you know,

993
01:10:45,319 --> 01:10:48,199
talented guy and everything. But I
think that they wanted that to happen.

994
01:10:48,239 --> 01:10:53,560
I don't think that really happened as
organically as people you know like to

995
01:10:53,640 --> 01:10:56,760
think, you know, And I
don't know if it was as big of

996
01:10:56,800 --> 01:10:59,319
an uproar. I mean, they
said eight people died, but did they

997
01:10:59,399 --> 01:11:02,800
really you know, I don't know. But as for a publicity stunt or

998
01:11:03,079 --> 01:11:08,680
an unintentional publicity stunt, is one
of the best ever. Well and he

999
01:11:08,760 --> 01:11:12,720
said, there are a lot of
phone calls to the police people all over

1000
01:11:12,800 --> 01:11:15,359
the country. A large number of
phone calls were made. They're not more

1001
01:11:15,439 --> 01:11:19,640
than usual, right of people,
you know, expressing concerns. So you

1002
01:11:19,720 --> 01:11:23,920
know that's that seemed to be factual. Yeah, yeah, yeah, but

1003
01:11:24,079 --> 01:11:27,840
it was you know, well done. And I don't think they have to

1004
01:11:27,920 --> 01:11:30,880
do another one. The once again, the tom Cruise one has some great

1005
01:11:30,000 --> 01:11:33,439
action sequences in it. There's one
and where you know, everyone is trying

1006
01:11:33,479 --> 01:11:36,159
to get away from these things and
they're all kind of moving towards New England

1007
01:11:36,239 --> 01:11:42,239
and they're near Ferry and all of
a sudden, everyone stops and an Amtrak

1008
01:11:42,439 --> 01:11:45,800
train goes by them and it's completely
on fire. Completely be funny. If

1009
01:11:45,800 --> 01:11:49,760
it was on time, that'd be
right, you know, but completely on

1010
01:11:49,880 --> 01:11:53,760
fire and everyone just cut waits for
this thing to like pass them, and

1011
01:11:53,800 --> 01:11:58,359
then they continue this this kind of
journey. Really really well done action scenes.

1012
01:11:58,439 --> 01:12:00,680
Great, we're Tom Cruise kills the
guy in the in the in the

1013
01:12:00,800 --> 01:12:05,119
cellar. He has to kind of
kill the guy so he doesn't give their

1014
01:12:05,159 --> 01:12:10,159
position away. How Tom Cruise brings
the hand grenade up into the tower.

1015
01:12:10,199 --> 01:12:13,720
And I mean there's a lot of
really really good scenes and that's filmed very

1016
01:12:13,760 --> 01:12:17,079
well. Two big mistakes once again
at the end with Cambridge is how they

1017
01:12:17,239 --> 01:12:21,680
has its hair must And at the
beginning they show Tom Cruise and he's one

1018
01:12:21,720 --> 01:12:27,159
of these uh operators of those cranes
that take containers off of ships and stuff.

1019
01:12:27,199 --> 01:12:30,680
And you know he wants to day
off because there's divorced kids of the

1020
01:12:30,800 --> 01:12:33,079
blah blah blah blah blah bah,
you know, Spielberg stuff. And they

1021
01:12:33,119 --> 01:12:35,800
go in that this guy lives in
a hovel. Those guys make about and

1022
01:12:35,920 --> 01:12:40,079
twenty thousand dollars a year. They
make good money. Yeah they're not living

1023
01:12:40,119 --> 01:12:43,520
in hope. Bulkens depends on how
how fast they can load and unload,

1024
01:12:43,640 --> 01:12:46,279
right yeah, yeah, yeah,
they get good money. Can I say

1025
01:12:46,319 --> 01:12:50,119
again, you would not be fun
going to a movie with most I was,

1026
01:12:50,239 --> 01:12:55,159
Yeah, you want to go in
there and all you want to do

1027
01:12:55,399 --> 01:12:58,079
is critique it. I want to
go to a movie, I try to

1028
01:12:58,319 --> 01:13:00,640
escape. I want to enjoy it. I don't give a ship about the

1029
01:13:00,720 --> 01:13:04,680
other thing. Wow, you were
talking about Tom, I'm out of the

1030
01:13:04,680 --> 01:13:13,079
show, ready to blow my head
off when you were talking about trying to

1031
01:13:13,119 --> 01:13:15,000
say that. But you know it
is like it is. I understand.

1032
01:13:15,039 --> 01:13:19,720
I can't watch anything, you know
without picking to the pond ahead out you

1033
01:13:20,319 --> 01:13:26,159
go back to the original My god, he went to film school. Well,

1034
01:13:26,960 --> 01:13:29,319
but now listen, hold on a
second, excuse me, hold on

1035
01:13:29,399 --> 01:13:31,359
for one second. Here's here's the
problem. Is like if you if you

1036
01:13:31,439 --> 01:13:36,479
went to the Culinary Institute of America
right where all these top chefs you'll go,

1037
01:13:38,199 --> 01:13:42,239
and then you go into a restaurant
and you can tell it's not good

1038
01:13:42,319 --> 01:13:45,600
to faking it whatever like that.
You know you you you can't escape.

1039
01:13:45,119 --> 01:13:48,920
You see all the critical poles,
But there are movies out there that are

1040
01:13:49,039 --> 01:13:54,239
actually almost perfect perfect that and I'll
give you one to know. It's kind

1041
01:13:54,279 --> 01:13:57,560
of stupid. The movie that movie
called Big with Tom Hanks turns into an

1042
01:13:57,560 --> 01:14:01,479
adult Okay, watch the movie.
Consider that perfect. That's a perfect movie.

1043
01:14:01,680 --> 01:14:03,880
Yes, believe it or not,
watch it from beginning to end.

1044
01:14:04,479 --> 01:14:09,239
And a perfect movie in my mind
is that you started off, you introduce

1045
01:14:09,319 --> 01:14:12,239
what's going on, and then the
character turns into you know, something happens

1046
01:14:12,239 --> 01:14:14,600
to the character. I mean,
it's a fantasy and everything, but it's

1047
01:14:14,680 --> 01:14:20,000
it's literally perfectly paced and everything.
The any well, the extended version,

1048
01:14:20,039 --> 01:14:24,560
the original version of The Good,
Bad and the Ugly Same Thing, actually

1049
01:14:24,640 --> 01:14:29,279
three movies put together, perfectly paced, perfectly paced until the very very big

1050
01:14:29,520 --> 01:14:32,399
the ending, which is spectacular ending, you know. But you take these

1051
01:14:32,520 --> 01:14:36,920
movies like Saving Private Ryan for instance, okay, because we were talking about

1052
01:14:36,920 --> 01:14:42,479
that on the World or two Turia
Show, and not only do my complaint

1053
01:14:42,560 --> 01:14:45,560
that you would send you know,
a whole battalion or a company or you

1054
01:14:45,640 --> 01:14:48,159
know, a division to go and
capture this guy. Not seven people walking,

1055
01:14:48,600 --> 01:14:54,000
one of which isn't even a soldier. And there's a scene in that

1056
01:14:54,119 --> 01:14:57,000
where they're walking. Now they run
this mission for the President, for the

1057
01:14:57,039 --> 01:15:00,720
White House, and they come upon
this random kind of machine gun nests,

1058
01:15:00,840 --> 01:15:01,880
you know, and then we have
to attack that. We have to forget

1059
01:15:01,920 --> 01:15:04,319
the mission, attack that because they
just want, you know, one guy

1060
01:15:04,359 --> 01:15:08,479
to be killed and they let the
Nazi go and he comes back and stabs.

1061
01:15:08,680 --> 01:15:12,079
I mean, come on, that's
bullshit, man. That stuff doesn't

1062
01:15:12,199 --> 01:15:16,000
happen in real life, you know. Platoon. Platoon is a very good

1063
01:15:16,079 --> 01:15:19,319
movie now talk about and it's not
a perfect movie, but that's a very

1064
01:15:19,439 --> 01:15:25,399
very good movie because that really shows
you what war is like and what some

1065
01:15:25,520 --> 01:15:28,039
of the people that you have to
fight alongside with. You know, they're

1066
01:15:28,039 --> 01:15:30,439
now all your band of brothers,
you know. I mean there was more

1067
01:15:30,520 --> 01:15:33,880
fighting amongst us over there than you're
fighting the vietname sometimes, but a very

1068
01:15:34,000 --> 01:15:38,319
very make a lot of notes in
these movies. I don't have to take

1069
01:15:38,359 --> 01:15:41,119
a lot of notes. I don't
have to. It's got one of those

1070
01:15:41,119 --> 01:15:45,399
of the micro recorders where he makes
mo Hey, listen, if you went

1071
01:15:45,399 --> 01:15:49,560
to school for three years, but
you know a lot about finance, you

1072
01:15:50,359 --> 01:15:55,119
club right? Okay, all right? I mean you know so, uh

1073
01:15:55,560 --> 01:16:00,560
you're an expert on the correlation there
at all. Using the big words.

1074
01:16:01,439 --> 01:16:04,760
You're going to say something I was
going to while we were in movies and

1075
01:16:05,159 --> 01:16:13,560
uh, you know what's his name, Tom Cruise? That's the guy.

1076
01:16:13,680 --> 01:16:15,359
Yes, if I get yeah,
well, you know, I was you

1077
01:16:15,479 --> 01:16:19,600
gotta go with Tom Hanks for some
reason. So they did the original movie

1078
01:16:19,640 --> 01:16:23,800
The Mummy back in the thirties,
yes, and then you know, probably

1079
01:16:23,800 --> 01:16:27,960
the nineties whatever Brendan Fraser did,
yeah version which actually turned out pretty good.

1080
01:16:27,960 --> 01:16:30,079
First one and it was actually pretty
good, and the second one was

1081
01:16:30,119 --> 01:16:31,319
general I'm not bad either, and
then the third one fell off a cliff

1082
01:16:31,359 --> 01:16:34,760
good special effects. Right, So
then Tom Cruise does a version of it.

1083
01:16:35,239 --> 01:16:40,319
He really late. Yeah. Now
the thing with Tom Cruise is the

1084
01:16:40,399 --> 01:16:45,399
Mummy turns out to be a really
really good looking woman. Was that she

1085
01:16:45,520 --> 01:16:48,479
shows what happened. She's not she's
not your like really nasty, ugly guy.

1086
01:16:48,640 --> 01:16:51,640
This is the twist. And he's
yeah, and he's in the military,

1087
01:16:51,800 --> 01:16:55,640
I believe because they went and got
they went and dug it up and

1088
01:16:55,760 --> 01:17:00,359
he gets the psychophagus out, and
you know, so I've never watched the

1089
01:17:00,560 --> 01:17:05,920
entire movie, but she is pretty
killer. Does he hit it? As

1090
01:17:05,960 --> 01:17:09,600
the kids said, I didn't watch
it that long, but I think I

1091
01:17:09,720 --> 01:17:14,119
think he dies, but she keeps
him alive. I don't know. But

1092
01:17:14,520 --> 01:17:17,319
she wouldn't interest him, that's not
But if you saw this girl, he

1093
01:17:17,359 --> 01:17:20,960
would say we even turn him yet? Oh yeah, okay, So you

1094
01:17:21,039 --> 01:17:26,359
know, I mean, as they
remake movies, sometimes they hit it pretty

1095
01:17:26,399 --> 01:17:30,640
well, like the Italian Job done
way back and it was yeah, and

1096
01:17:30,720 --> 01:17:35,479
then they did it Marky Mark does
it with the you know, the new

1097
01:17:35,560 --> 01:17:38,760
crew, I don't know how many
years ago, and I think they're going

1098
01:17:38,800 --> 01:17:41,600
to remake it again, but you
know, yeah, and what is with

1099
01:17:41,760 --> 01:17:45,800
Willy Wonka? Why are they keeping
there's a new version of it out and

1100
01:17:45,840 --> 01:17:49,920
I'm like, seriously, I wouldn't
watch any of them. What was Yeah,

1101
01:17:50,039 --> 01:17:54,199
that's a strange one. But I
don't know. I know, Johnny

1102
01:17:54,279 --> 01:17:58,279
Depp being William Wonka was like,
what now there's a new guy doing it?

1103
01:18:01,079 --> 01:18:04,239
Where did that come from? Yeah? I mean it was written by

1104
01:18:04,680 --> 01:18:09,760
famous guy forget his name. And
the first one is you know, uh

1105
01:18:11,000 --> 01:18:15,760
Wilder. You know, but there's
another movie was that. You were just

1106
01:18:15,800 --> 01:18:20,000
talking about movies that they remade.
I mean, you had to me remaking

1107
01:18:20,319 --> 01:18:24,079
a movie. It's just you're too
lazy to come up with the new idea,

1108
01:18:24,399 --> 01:18:26,520
you know. I mean, you
know at a certain point that you

1109
01:18:26,560 --> 01:18:28,920
know you're gonna make some money on
it, Like when we're talking about the

1110
01:18:29,840 --> 01:18:33,760
Exorcist, movies. They remade The
Time Machine, and I thought that it

1111
01:18:33,800 --> 01:18:38,199
was pretty good. Yeah in the
nineties. Yeah, yeah, they gave

1112
01:18:38,319 --> 01:18:42,159
nods to the original film and then
they gave nods to the original novel.

1113
01:18:42,439 --> 01:18:45,079
It was kind of a nice blend, and they told they told their own

1114
01:18:45,119 --> 01:18:48,159
story, but it wasn't so far
away from the original that you wed grown,

1115
01:18:48,239 --> 01:18:51,159
so I, you know, everything
was good. Klaus spelled out to

1116
01:18:51,239 --> 01:18:55,239
the music. Same guy that did
the Pirates of the Caribbean, Okay,

1117
01:18:55,279 --> 01:18:58,039
yea, and it was I thought
really well done. The original one,

1118
01:18:58,159 --> 01:19:05,079
the original time Machine with Rod Rod
Taylor. Let me tell you about Yvette

1119
01:19:05,079 --> 01:19:10,920
Mi Mule. Okay, back then
it was a little mac take your hands

1120
01:19:10,960 --> 01:19:15,119
out of your diapers, you know. Anytime she would appeared, she was

1121
01:19:15,439 --> 01:19:18,279
beautiful. She was beautiful, beautiful. She was on TV a lot then.

1122
01:19:18,319 --> 01:19:20,760
And then I remember going to see
the movie and I'm saying, wow,

1123
01:19:20,880 --> 01:19:24,359
she's in this and she's kind of
like in a bikini or a little

1124
01:19:24,720 --> 01:19:30,159
kind of short skirt or whatever.
Flash forward many years to the early nineties.

1125
01:19:30,640 --> 01:19:34,079
I had him to be in business
in Hollywood on business and we were

1126
01:19:34,159 --> 01:19:36,520
in the Beverly Hills Hotel, just
like you hear, you know, on

1127
01:19:36,640 --> 01:19:41,720
TV having lunch with somebody, and
who's sitting at the table next to us,

1128
01:19:41,720 --> 01:19:45,640
but yvettman mule. She looked great. Yes, she was probably I

1129
01:19:45,760 --> 01:19:49,319
mean, I hate to say it
her fifties or something, but she was

1130
01:19:49,359 --> 01:19:51,680
still beautiful. And it's so weird. I mean, there's your childhood.

1131
01:19:51,680 --> 01:19:55,079
It's like, you know, meeting
Donna Douglas or something, you know what

1132
01:19:55,119 --> 01:19:59,279
I mean, Ellie may or something. Yeah, it was she was,

1133
01:19:59,439 --> 01:20:01,600
she was really, she was really
just a beautiful woman. Yeah. But

1134
01:20:02,039 --> 01:20:05,600
I'd like the original time machine.
I liked it because it was simple,

1135
01:20:05,680 --> 01:20:08,760
you know what I mean. I
like the original. I like the new

1136
01:20:08,800 --> 01:20:13,159
one too, I do, but
the that's that the original one was.

1137
01:20:13,840 --> 01:20:15,520
It was simple. He just built
this thing and he spun the disc and

1138
01:20:15,600 --> 01:20:19,479
back of it and that was this
time machine, you know. And and

1139
01:20:19,560 --> 01:20:21,920
the way he saves him at the
end, and when he goes back at

1140
01:20:21,960 --> 01:20:25,920
the end, he just moves the
machine a little bit and yeah, I

1141
01:20:25,960 --> 01:20:28,640
don't know. It is a period
piece, which was great, yeah right,

1142
01:20:28,760 --> 01:20:33,760
yes, yeah, yeah with the
guy from mister Edward was yeah,

1143
01:20:34,039 --> 01:20:40,479
yeah, yeah, I was waiting
for Hey Wilburg. Yeah, see Dave

1144
01:20:40,560 --> 01:20:44,520
Chappelle's The Racist Mister Ed. I'm
not recommending it for anyone, but it's

1145
01:20:44,520 --> 01:20:47,159
a hilarious on YouTube. But yeah, yeah, I don't know. I

1146
01:20:47,199 --> 01:20:50,079
always I always kind of liked that
movie. But when you really think of

1147
01:20:50,119 --> 01:20:53,840
it, what others? You know, there's like the Alien movies. The

1148
01:20:53,880 --> 01:20:57,720
first one was the best by fa
and you know number thirteen was Alien,

1149
01:20:57,880 --> 01:21:00,520
you know versus the Simpsons or something
that ran one wasn't bad. Aliens with

1150
01:21:01,760 --> 01:21:06,800
oh what's his name? Played the
android Lance Henderson? Okay, yeah,

1151
01:21:09,439 --> 01:21:14,199
how about Arnie doing Predator and if
some of the Ernie did a bunch of

1152
01:21:14,279 --> 01:21:19,920
movies back in the Predator, you
know, Terminator, all those those were

1153
01:21:20,239 --> 01:21:24,279
pretty interesting movies, you know,
for the day. The special effects are

1154
01:21:24,319 --> 01:21:27,920
pretty good back then for what The
Red was actually really pretty good. Yeah,

1155
01:21:29,520 --> 01:21:31,560
and they've remade it, I believe
I think they've remade that too.

1156
01:21:31,640 --> 01:21:36,159
I mean, I know this Alien
versus Predator and Predator goes Hawaiian. Yeah,

1157
01:21:36,279 --> 01:21:41,239
right, Japan a movie that that
we've talked about before, and I

1158
01:21:41,359 --> 01:21:44,520
think you guys seem to think as
an improvement. I don't was the original

1159
01:21:44,680 --> 01:21:47,039
the thing? The original? The
Thing is a great, great movie.

1160
01:21:47,119 --> 01:21:53,199
Black White movie. Yeah much blood, so much blood. I mean,

1161
01:21:53,239 --> 01:21:55,079
if you if you pulled the ketch
up on too much, you know,

1162
01:21:55,199 --> 01:21:59,840
you're not gonna appreciate it. There's
just my mother through that movie. I

1163
01:22:00,319 --> 01:22:03,119
had it on VHS. Was that
Mother's Day good thing I brought my mother.

1164
01:22:03,199 --> 01:22:05,039
And when I was a kid,
my mother and I used to watch

1165
01:22:05,960 --> 01:22:12,079
Creature Feature on Channel fifty six with
with with what's his name feet feet little

1166
01:22:12,119 --> 01:22:14,680
guy, and we would we would
watch, you know, the really bad

1167
01:22:15,159 --> 01:22:16,960
B grade movie. I love those
movies. We've got Zilla movies and stuff.

1168
01:22:17,560 --> 01:22:21,239
And I said, again, my
mother's you know, at the point

1169
01:22:21,239 --> 01:22:25,000
I showed it to her, she
was not a young lady, and I

1170
01:22:25,039 --> 01:22:27,239
said, I get this movie.
You gotta watch it. She sat through

1171
01:22:27,319 --> 01:22:30,119
that really yeah, and she liked
it. Yeah yeah yeah. Attack on

1172
01:22:30,960 --> 01:22:35,239
Crab Island I remember them, you
remember them? Sure? I think I

1173
01:22:35,319 --> 01:22:41,560
owned some of them. I can
remember going out after watching that movie trying

1174
01:22:41,560 --> 01:22:45,000
to kill every d M man who
could find. So this was so long

1175
01:22:45,039 --> 01:22:47,520
time. I used to take them, we used to burn them, yeah,

1176
01:22:47,800 --> 01:22:50,920
yeahs anything to punish them. But
I don't know how long it was

1177
01:22:51,039 --> 01:22:55,319
that I had this thing with the
ants. If I ever saw anyone.

1178
01:22:55,479 --> 01:22:59,479
So that movie was the middle of
the fifties. James Whitmore was in at

1179
01:22:59,520 --> 01:23:01,760
The original was made like in the
mid fifties, and it is basically one

1180
01:23:01,760 --> 01:23:05,079
of the first nuclear weapons have screwed
up, you know, the environment type

1181
01:23:05,079 --> 01:23:11,560
of thing where nuclear waste has caused
these ants to grow to tremendous size.

1182
01:23:11,880 --> 01:23:15,279
Right, and there's a Battle of
Los Angeles stuff. But Swisch, there

1183
01:23:15,319 --> 01:23:17,439
were really some There's a lot of
people in that movie who went on to

1184
01:23:17,560 --> 01:23:24,079
do big the better things, right. Fis Parker. He's the soldier who's

1185
01:23:24,119 --> 01:23:28,479
in the mental Yeah yeah, yeah, the guy was but he said he

1186
01:23:28,680 --> 01:23:31,399
was saying, uh, make me
a sergeant in charge of the booze,

1187
01:23:31,640 --> 01:23:34,760
remember that? Yeah? Yeah,
yeah, yeah yeah. And and James

1188
01:23:34,800 --> 01:23:38,720
Whitmore was in it. Now you're
saying it was Robin Lansing in that as

1189
01:23:38,760 --> 01:23:42,920
well. I don't remember that.
No, Well it's a guy from Gun

1190
01:23:43,000 --> 01:23:45,960
Smoke is in it, James.
You know what, he got the call

1191
01:23:46,520 --> 01:23:49,600
off to be Matt Dylan on Gun
Smoke while he was making that film.

1192
01:23:49,720 --> 01:23:53,119
Is that where they kill him off
kind of abruptly? Maybe that's why.

1193
01:23:54,039 --> 01:23:57,239
But why don't you make that movie
all over again? Could you make imagine

1194
01:23:57,279 --> 01:24:00,399
doing that movie with special effects these
days, with the big ants and stuff,

1195
01:24:00,439 --> 01:24:02,800
that would be kind of cool.
They be back out there killing them

1196
01:24:02,800 --> 01:24:08,039
again. The tarantula, Yeah,
yes, the rabbits, the rabbits,

1197
01:24:08,159 --> 01:24:11,399
ring mantis. They had all you
know, all those nuclear things, you

1198
01:24:11,439 --> 01:24:13,840
know, and then driving back in
the day, remember the U. I

1199
01:24:13,920 --> 01:24:16,880
own a lot of them on you
know, on DVD. I bought a

1200
01:24:16,920 --> 01:24:19,600
bunch of them from some guy who
was just yeah, I got I got

1201
01:24:19,640 --> 01:24:24,119
something that they bought like that twenty
bucks, yeah, forty pictures remember from

1202
01:24:24,279 --> 01:24:29,399
getting a band with the Grasshoppers.
Yeah, picture of the of the building,

1203
01:24:30,159 --> 01:24:32,199
the two dimensional picture of the building. Yeah, these grasshoppers. What's

1204
01:24:32,239 --> 01:24:36,079
the what's the movie? I mean, the Praying Mantis. It's called The

1205
01:24:36,159 --> 01:24:40,359
Deadly Mantis, The Deadly Menshis,
okay, and it's about a giant praying

1206
01:24:40,399 --> 01:24:45,439
mantis. So I saw a lot
of these movies on Mystery Science Theater,

1207
01:24:45,680 --> 01:24:49,880
okay, which was this yeah show
from the eighties and nineties, I guess,

1208
01:24:49,920 --> 01:24:54,520
And basically it was it was this
guy in these two robuts was sitting

1209
01:24:54,600 --> 01:24:59,159
in the audience and they're kind of
you and you're watching the movie and they're

1210
01:24:59,159 --> 01:25:01,680
critiquing it making the movie right,
and some of it was like really funny.

1211
01:25:01,720 --> 01:25:05,880
So in that in the then Deadney
manshis I'll then forget this scene where

1212
01:25:05,920 --> 01:25:09,479
it's you know, this army officer
and he's trying to figure out where the

1213
01:25:09,760 --> 01:25:13,680
big mantisays, and of course he
got the beautiful scientist you know with him,

1214
01:25:14,039 --> 01:25:16,560
and they're out at night trying to
find this thing and they're parking somewhere

1215
01:25:17,199 --> 01:25:19,800
and she says, you know,
Dowling, how do you feel? And

1216
01:25:20,079 --> 01:25:23,359
the robot goes for his voice.
He goes, I got a mantis in

1217
01:25:23,399 --> 01:25:31,680
my pants. That it was funny
show mad scientists that sent uh Joel Hodgson

1218
01:25:32,039 --> 01:25:34,840
up into space, and he was
we're going to make him watch these horrible

1219
01:25:34,920 --> 01:25:39,560
movies and test their mental reactions to
them. Right. It was kind of

1220
01:25:39,560 --> 01:25:42,319
the silly premise, but it really
worked. Man. It was funny,

1221
01:25:42,439 --> 01:25:44,880
funny, funny, funny, funny. Yeah. Yeah, and then they

1222
01:25:44,960 --> 01:25:47,359
then they just quit doing the show, which is there was made Minnesota somewhere,

1223
01:25:48,000 --> 01:25:51,279
and well it's it's still going on
and I have other people doing it.

1224
01:25:51,800 --> 01:25:57,840
They're on YouTube or or something some
special access. Yeah, it would

1225
01:25:57,840 --> 01:26:01,479
be some funny hilarious, some really
bad movies that they would critique in such

1226
01:26:01,600 --> 01:26:05,760
hilarious ways, would do like a
viru kind of like an a viral thing.

1227
01:26:05,840 --> 01:26:08,960
Yeah, that's right. And the
thing was, it's the same thing

1228
01:26:09,039 --> 01:26:11,960
we all do when we sit there
watching a movie, making those kinds of

1229
01:26:12,199 --> 01:26:14,840
equips, you know. Yeah,
yeah, yeah, really good. Hey,

1230
01:26:14,920 --> 01:26:16,640
listen, time about clips. Why
don't we take a quick break right

1254
01:27:54,279 --> 01:27:58,800
art, on ancient coins, and
etched on cave walls. They're even reported

1255
01:27:58,880 --> 01:28:02,560
in the Bible. But more surprising
is when UFOs are seen the most in

1256
01:28:02,720 --> 01:28:08,840
times of war. Through centuries,
thousands of UFO sidings have been made by

1257
01:28:09,000 --> 01:28:14,079
high ranking officials, military pilots,
and ordinary soldiers. Often, these fantastic

1258
01:28:14,119 --> 01:28:17,319
appearances occur at the height of great
battles, from World War One to D

1259
01:28:17,520 --> 01:28:23,760
Day to Korea, Vietnam and beyond. Military investigators are baffled. Why do

1260
01:28:23,960 --> 01:28:29,000
UFO sidings spike so drastically during wartime? Could it be mistaken aircraft or at

1261
01:28:29,039 --> 01:28:33,199
someone or some thing looking in on
us. In UFOs and Wartime, What

1262

macmaloney chronicles centuries of these incredible sightings and

1263
01:28:38,520 --> 01:28:42,039

so many UFOs are seen while to humanity

is at war. Read about the
scareships, the ghost planes and the ghost

talk about some of these old movies. Yeah, yeah, yeah, also

1281
01:30:34,000 --> 01:30:36,960
UF Mechanic Alven. Now though in
the house of us out right, Mac

1282
01:30:38,399 --> 01:30:43,479
folks, we're talking about like mostly
old sci fi movies, but movies that

1283
01:30:44,079 --> 01:30:46,520
you know that were remade and I
can think of there was one really good

1284
01:30:46,560 --> 01:30:49,560
science fiction movie that I liked a
lot as a kid, and that was

1285
01:30:49,560 --> 01:30:53,640
the Day of the Earth Stood Still, which is an early fifties movie Michael

1286
01:30:53,680 --> 01:30:56,960
Rennie was in, and when you
watch it these days, there's a lot

1287
01:30:57,000 --> 01:31:00,840
of uh, you know, academic
stuff. He's in a house, he's

1288
01:31:00,880 --> 01:31:02,920
in a he's a he's in a
boarding well. Basically what happens is a

1289
01:31:02,960 --> 01:31:09,119
flying slash of lands virtually on the
White House lawn. Okay, and it's

1290
01:31:09,159 --> 01:31:12,000
obviously a flying sauce so obviously has
a lot of power. It kind of

1291
01:31:12,039 --> 01:31:15,640
destroys the two tanks and stuff like
that, and Michael Rainey comes out with

1292
01:31:15,760 --> 01:31:18,359
this robot and and it's basically a
fascist message. It's like, you know,

1293
01:31:18,399 --> 01:31:20,399
if you don't do what we tell
you, we're going to blow up

1294
01:31:20,399 --> 01:31:24,560
your planet. But he said it
is if you listen to his speech at

1295
01:31:24,560 --> 01:31:28,039
the Yeah, yeah, it's like, okay, it's really you know.

1296
01:31:28,199 --> 01:31:30,680
So anyway, but the movie itself, so he didn't gets involved with Patrician

1297
01:31:30,680 --> 01:31:34,640
o'neils. She's get on the boarding
house. He is, they gonna allude

1298
01:31:34,640 --> 01:31:39,520
that he's hitting her, and then
he has to find this, you know,

1299
01:31:39,640 --> 01:31:42,720
this Einstein type guy, and he
does, and so it's like that,

1300
01:31:42,800 --> 01:31:44,920
and then they get back to the
science fiction pod towards the end.

1301
01:31:44,960 --> 01:31:47,520
Okay, but it's a real kind
of thinking movie in fifties, very fifties,

1302
01:31:47,600 --> 01:31:51,119
very kind of filmed the wire in
a what gritty Then they made it

1303
01:31:51,239 --> 01:31:57,840
again with Kenna Reeves, and I've
never heard one thing positive about that movie.

1304
01:31:57,960 --> 01:32:00,960
It just blew from beginning to win. So you have to think,

1305
01:32:00,279 --> 01:32:04,239
where's the meeting that they sit down
they say, let's do this. Let's

1306
01:32:04,279 --> 01:32:09,399
take this movie and put Keniano reason
it and destroy it and destroy it.

1307
01:32:09,520 --> 01:32:11,720
You know, he's been in some
pretty good movies. Nothing not him,

1308
01:32:11,800 --> 01:32:15,319
But why do you do that?
No, here's another movie that I think

1309
01:32:15,159 --> 01:32:19,039
should be redone. But then you
say they'll do it, they'll probably f

1310
01:32:19,119 --> 01:32:23,119
it up. And it's Close Encounters
of the Third Count, which is like

1311
01:32:23,199 --> 01:32:26,960
a really flawed movie. The first
one, the original one is a flawed

1312
01:32:27,039 --> 01:32:30,720
movie because it's it's an uneven movie. You've heard me talk about this before.

1313
01:32:31,079 --> 01:32:33,880
And movies have a certain pace to
them, and they, whether you

1314
01:32:34,039 --> 01:32:36,479
know it or not, they rant
acts. They're in three acts. And

1315
01:32:38,800 --> 01:32:44,279
in the original script for Closing Counters
of the Third Kind called for the lead

1316
01:32:44,479 --> 01:32:48,560
character to be a junior officer,
like a lieutenant or something in the army,

1317
01:32:48,680 --> 01:32:54,039
and he and it's kind of like
the Skelly of the X Files.

1318
01:32:54,239 --> 01:32:58,720
He does not believe in UFOs,
and he becomes a believer in UFOs.

1319
01:32:59,319 --> 01:33:02,239
Instead of the last minute, they
bring in Richard Dreyfus, and he's this

1320
01:33:02,439 --> 01:33:08,039
electrical worker or of something, lineman
or something, and it's his interaction with

1321
01:33:08,199 --> 01:33:11,720
the flying saucer which is the basis
of the movie. Okay, first of

1322
01:33:11,760 --> 01:33:15,039
all, he sucks as an actor, and and he by his own admission,

1323
01:33:15,119 --> 01:33:17,880
he was coked out from the beginning
to the end. The woman who

1324
01:33:17,960 --> 01:33:21,720
produced that that movie, her name
was Kathleen Kennedy. I think she's she's

1325
01:33:21,760 --> 01:33:27,000
passed away now, but she said
that movie started my million dollars coke habit.

1326
01:33:27,079 --> 01:33:29,960
You know. Now, I'm not
saying that Spielberg. He doesn't seem

1327
01:33:29,960 --> 01:33:32,359
to be a coke type guy to
me, but a lot of the people

1328
01:33:32,920 --> 01:33:35,560
on that movie were, you know, doing the blow during the movie.

1329
01:33:35,680 --> 01:33:40,039
And I think it's a I think
Richard Dreyfus is the worst. Is not

1330
01:33:40,119 --> 01:33:42,920
a good trace of the movie if
you notice the whole idea, the whole

1331
01:33:43,079 --> 01:33:46,000
section of him building the mountain in
his house. First of the potato.

1332
01:33:46,079 --> 01:33:48,000
If anyone hasn't seen the movie,
they don't know what we're talking about,

1333
01:33:48,000 --> 01:33:53,560
but it was a mountain on a
mash potatoes. And then they'ret and stuff

1334
01:33:53,640 --> 01:33:58,279
in his house because he's seen this
vision that takes up the middle part of

1335
01:33:58,359 --> 01:34:00,000
the movie, you know, and
it does and you know, okay,

1336
01:34:00,239 --> 01:34:02,640
if he builds the mountain of Master
teddies, you get it. You don't

1337
01:34:02,680 --> 01:34:05,800
have to see this forty minute see
of him doing it in his living You're

1338
01:34:05,840 --> 01:34:10,199
right, they overdid that. They
could have done shortened that down to like

1339
01:34:10,239 --> 01:34:14,600
a few minutes and done the same
thing, but it just really the movie

1340
01:34:14,720 --> 01:34:16,640
was just completely off balance because of
that. You know why they did that,

1341
01:34:16,960 --> 01:34:19,720
because Drives just wanted it that way. That was the way you want

1342
01:34:19,720 --> 01:34:21,920
to do his character. And then
when you get out of that, you

1343
01:34:23,000 --> 01:34:26,880
get into the interesting point where they
finally go to that mountain. But still

1344
01:34:27,000 --> 01:34:30,000
that is still a little kind of
confusing. You know, what are they

1345
01:34:30,079 --> 01:34:31,960
doing there? What does no one
ever says, Okay, we're going to

1346
01:34:32,039 --> 01:34:34,399
meet the aliens at you know,
midnight on this night, and we're going

1347
01:34:34,479 --> 01:34:38,279
to show you. They never tell
you that. And when you see the

1348
01:34:38,520 --> 01:34:42,359
acting, and this is another Spielberg
thing, okay in that movie, and

1349
01:34:42,439 --> 01:34:45,560
I think that it was made maybe
ten years before it's time because these special

1350
01:34:45,560 --> 01:34:48,239
effects that are just barely kind of
new, and you know, some of

1351
01:34:48,279 --> 01:34:50,239
them are good, but some of
them are out of proportion to it.

1352
01:34:50,520 --> 01:34:54,079
But when at the end, when
the people are looking at the great ship

1353
01:34:54,159 --> 01:34:56,600
coming down, you can tell the
gist. He told to go look at

1354
01:34:56,640 --> 01:35:00,279
your look, look at that ceiling, and put wonder on your face.

1355
01:35:00,359 --> 01:35:01,760
And that's like twenty minutes and these
people say, oh, you know,

1356
01:35:01,920 --> 01:35:05,399
and you know they're not looking at
anything. So that's why I don't.

1357
01:35:05,439 --> 01:35:10,640
I just don't. He's not a
good storyteller. He just isn't, you

1358
01:35:10,760 --> 01:35:14,600
know. He makes these, you
know, popular movies, but story wise,

1359
01:35:15,159 --> 01:35:17,560
so I, well, we'll just
make it again. But who wouldn't

1360
01:35:17,560 --> 01:35:20,079
know, you know, if they
made again, they would f it up,

1361
01:35:20,119 --> 01:35:25,479
you know, because the record is
right they well they would, you

1362
01:35:25,560 --> 01:35:28,399
know, f up the Yeah,
not the sequel, but the remake.

1363
01:35:28,520 --> 01:35:32,159
So one of the best things about
that was John Williams soundtrack, very good

1364
01:35:32,319 --> 01:35:36,079
people listened to independently and back to
Day the oster. Still I don't know

1365
01:35:36,159 --> 01:35:41,239
who did the remake soundtrack, but
you're never going to surpass Bernard Herrman,

1366
01:35:41,920 --> 01:35:47,159
Theoremon Yep for that. That was
a suggest a superb Moody soundtrack. Right,

1367
01:35:48,000 --> 01:35:51,640
I'll tell you, I honestly believe
The Day the Earth Stood Still is

1368
01:35:53,600 --> 01:35:57,199
probably one of the best sci fi
movies ever made. That that is the

1369
01:35:57,279 --> 01:36:01,159
first, the original, Yeah,
I mean, for the time I remember

1370
01:36:01,159 --> 01:36:05,159
as a kid watching that came on
maybe once a year. We didn't have

1371
01:36:05,279 --> 01:36:08,840
VCRs, right, and you know, and you know, we glued to

1372
01:36:08,960 --> 01:36:12,239
that thing. And then they came
out with the new one with Keanu Reeves.

1373
01:36:12,279 --> 01:36:15,079
So I'm kind of watching it,
going, well, they had this,

1374
01:36:15,319 --> 01:36:17,600
you know, in the original,
they had this eight foot nine foot

1375
01:36:17,760 --> 01:36:23,119
rot Gort who you know, shot
a laser beam out and just he could

1376
01:36:23,159 --> 01:36:28,520
destroy the earth. That was his
his thing. And in the Keanu Reeves

1377
01:36:28,640 --> 01:36:32,760
version, he turns into bugs.
He turns into little tiny bugs and flies

1378
01:36:32,800 --> 01:36:39,560
away, and yeah, the robot, he's monstrous, but they make them.

1379
01:36:39,760 --> 01:36:42,640
He comes apart into these little I
don't know, nan nights. I

1380
01:36:42,640 --> 01:36:45,399
don't know what the hell's supposed to
be. But I'm like, where's the

1381
01:36:45,479 --> 01:36:47,760
laser beams, where's the destroyer?
Come on? Now, what what are

1382
01:36:47,760 --> 01:36:53,319
we waiting for? Just it was
like a totally different movie. Now,

1383
01:36:53,359 --> 01:36:57,800
what about Dune? Dum No?
No. I saw the first domoment,

1384
01:36:57,800 --> 01:37:00,880
it was like, oh my god, they're remaking it, and I watched

1385
01:37:01,399 --> 01:37:06,640
because I didn't realize they've only released
half of it. I watched the second

1386
01:37:06,680 --> 01:37:11,920
one, but it stopped halfway through
and they're saying wait, you know,

1387
01:37:12,039 --> 01:37:14,239
like wait for the Hobbit, wait
for the next one to come up.

1388
01:37:14,880 --> 01:37:19,640
But when I was a kid,
I read every science fiction book that would

1389
01:37:19,840 --> 01:37:25,000
was in my little library in Bruchester
okay because as the Dutchester are very small

1390
01:37:25,079 --> 01:37:28,640
library as it turns out, but
the Dune books were there, and I

1391
01:37:28,760 --> 01:37:31,199
tried like crazy to read them,
but it was impossible to read those.

1392
01:37:31,199 --> 01:37:35,359
Frank Herbert was the guy who wrote
them. Impossibly gets so far. Yeah,

1393
01:37:35,399 --> 01:37:40,279
it's just too cos and I couldn't
get past it right right right,

1394
01:37:40,399 --> 01:37:44,760
Same thing with the the Hobbits,
you know, the Blood of the Rings,

1395
01:37:44,880 --> 01:37:47,520
Oh my god, I got like
floody pages of it. I mean

1396
01:37:47,840 --> 01:37:50,279
with the movies up, I don't
know. The first movie was excellent,

1397
01:37:50,399 --> 01:37:53,800
the first movie. The second two
movies weren't that good because once again,

1398
01:37:54,199 --> 01:37:56,640
you don't know what anyone is really
doing. You don't know where they are

1399
01:37:56,760 --> 01:37:59,439
and where they you know where we
are, you know, you see these

1400
01:37:59,520 --> 01:38:01,000
vast times he's going with where are
they going? You know where they come

1401
01:38:01,079 --> 01:38:04,479
from? It wasn't that, it
wasn't. I don't like that Peter Jackson.

1402
01:38:04,520 --> 01:38:08,199
I don't like what he did to
the Beatles movie. I didn't like

1403
01:38:08,279 --> 01:38:13,479
the second or third one of the
Rings. And did anyone see Peter Jackson's

1404
01:38:13,560 --> 01:38:16,399
King Kong, the New King Kong
Switching? You must have seen that,

1405
01:38:17,920 --> 01:38:23,920
you know, not like twenty five
years ago with what's your name Jackson?

1406
01:38:24,199 --> 01:38:27,920
Peter Jackson. Yes, not the
one with Jeff Bridges. No, No,

1407
01:38:28,079 --> 01:38:31,600
that was yeah, right right?
That was that was that King Kloon,

1408
01:38:31,760 --> 01:38:34,920
the you know Dean lo Rena said, when the monkey he died,

1409
01:38:34,960 --> 01:38:40,439
the people will cry, right.
But this was the Peter Jackson one,

1410
01:38:40,479 --> 01:38:43,119
which was about three hours long,
which was excellent. I don't like jack

1411
01:38:43,159 --> 01:38:46,000
Black. But there's scenes on the
Mysterious Island where there that dinosaurs to chase

1412
01:38:46,039 --> 01:38:50,800
them. Unbelievable, unbelievable special effects, very very well done. Then they

1413
01:38:50,880 --> 01:38:56,279
bring Kong to New York and I
wish he remember the actress's name, but

1414
01:38:56,399 --> 01:39:01,359
she's cute blonde, and the actually
a scene you know now the original King

1415
01:39:01,479 --> 01:39:08,039
Kong basically he gets loose, and
the girl who brought him back from the

1416
01:39:08,119 --> 01:39:12,279
island is in a hotel room in
the Empire State Building for some reason.

1417
01:39:12,319 --> 01:39:15,399
What she's doing there, He climbs
up, he grabs her, goes up

1418
01:39:15,439 --> 01:39:18,600
to the top of the tower.
Right if the ray and people are saying,

1419
01:39:18,640 --> 01:39:21,039
what this is is? This is
he's in love with her. You

1420
01:39:21,119 --> 01:39:26,079
know, he's in love with her, right, and that's why he's doing

1421
01:39:26,159 --> 01:39:30,880
that. In the new version,
you're not gonna believe this. But Kate

1422
01:39:30,239 --> 01:39:33,239
Boswick I think is the woman's name. I'm not sure, but she's a

1423
01:39:33,239 --> 01:39:39,600
pretty big actress. They go to
Central Park and they skate together. What

1424
01:39:39,960 --> 01:39:44,760
they There's a scene in the Peter
Jackson King Kong movie where they go to

1425
01:39:44,880 --> 01:39:49,960
Central Park, the Big Eighth and
the girl and they skate on the frozen

1426
01:39:50,079 --> 01:39:55,319
pond in Central Pi. I go, look, I'm sitting there going what

1427
01:39:55,560 --> 01:39:59,039
the is going on here? Where
did he get the skates? Ware?

1428
01:39:59,079 --> 01:40:01,640
Did he get the big skate?
So one thing, okay, it was

1429
01:40:01,760 --> 01:40:05,760
like why are they It was just
bad. A lot of good special effects,

1430
01:40:05,800 --> 01:40:10,720
but the story was just, you
know, terrible. All right,

1431
01:40:10,720 --> 01:40:14,079
I'm gonna throw one at you.
Go ahead. How about the Apocalypse.

1432
01:40:14,199 --> 01:40:16,840
Now. Yeah, Well, I
was just talking to friend Phil Odman about

1433
01:40:16,840 --> 01:40:19,600
that movie. I think that's a
great movie. I think it's a misunderstood

1434
01:40:19,720 --> 01:40:25,960
movie. I know. I went
out of my way to find the director's

1435
01:40:26,039 --> 01:40:30,760
cut, which is even longer,
right, And that to me is an

1436
01:40:30,800 --> 01:40:32,800
amazing movie. I just stolen a
lot of scenes from that movie from my

1437
01:40:32,840 --> 01:40:36,640
book stood Don't tell anybody, but
you know, the whole idea of it

1438
01:40:36,800 --> 01:40:41,319
was based out of Joseph Conrad short
story, not that I ever read in

1439
01:40:41,520 --> 01:40:44,000
his stuff, but it was called
but I think the Ship of the River

1440
01:40:44,119 --> 01:40:47,119
something. And what it is is
that the I mean the movie you haven't

1441
01:40:47,119 --> 01:40:50,760
seen. The movie is basically this
kind of special forces guys in a boat

1442
01:40:51,920 --> 01:40:58,239
have to go deep into Vietnam,
into into China to bring back this army

1443
01:40:58,439 --> 01:41:02,920
colonel who has gone rogue. The
colonel is Malonbredo and and they have to

1444
01:41:03,000 --> 01:41:05,199
go and find him, and he's
in this weird part of Vietnam. So

1445
01:41:05,279 --> 01:41:09,760
they put they dropped the boat in
the river, and the and the the

1446
01:41:10,279 --> 01:41:13,800
further they go up to the weird
things yet and that's the whole that's like

1447
01:41:13,880 --> 01:41:15,560
that, that's like a novel,
you know, way to approach books,

1448
01:41:15,680 --> 01:41:19,399
right. I mean it's a it's
one of the tropes that people use the

1449
01:41:19,520 --> 01:41:23,880
BB You get into something, the
stranger things get. So they start off

1450
01:41:24,000 --> 01:41:26,680
just like fighting the regular wall,
fighting Viet Cong and stuff. By the

1451
01:41:26,720 --> 01:41:29,680
time they get to the top of
the river, I mean, the bridges

1452
01:41:29,840 --> 01:41:33,159
like fireworks and it was it's like
madness. It was really really really good,

1453
01:41:33,359 --> 01:41:36,600
almost fantastic in a way. Then
when they get to where the where

1454
01:41:36,640 --> 01:41:41,199
the Malabrando is, it gets completely
oh, off the rails, off the

1455
01:41:41,279 --> 01:41:44,920
rails, just completely off the frigging
rails. But still an entertaining movie,

1456
01:41:45,079 --> 01:41:47,720
just a crazy movie, kind of
showing the craziness of Vietnam. I think

1457
01:41:47,760 --> 01:41:50,319
they did a good job. Good
club. Yeah. You know, Martin

1458
01:41:50,399 --> 01:41:54,159
Sheen had a heart attack. We
were talking about that. Yeah, yeah,

1459
01:41:54,760 --> 01:41:58,720
he did. He filmed the first
scene where he's tearing up his room

1460
01:41:59,520 --> 01:42:02,199
and and he couldn't do it.
Cople want him to again again. So

1461
01:42:02,279 --> 01:42:06,640
he finally got drunk and he does
that scene. And then I think because

1462
01:42:06,680 --> 01:42:09,840
he felt he puts so much time, you know, he puts so much

1463
01:42:09,960 --> 01:42:12,960
effort and strain in it. He
had a hot attack a few weeks later

1464
01:42:13,439 --> 01:42:15,840
and then when they went to the
Philippines, they had a revolution and it

1465
01:42:15,960 --> 01:42:17,560
was it was screwed up, but
they could make a movie about making the

1466
01:42:17,640 --> 01:42:23,199
movie. But Fishburn Lawrence Fishburn's and
it was he was a kid. He

1467
01:42:23,279 --> 01:42:25,640
was like fifteen. Yeah, yeah, here's the answer. And they said,

1468
01:42:25,640 --> 01:42:30,880
well, you know, it worked
on him so hard that he stayed

1469
01:42:30,960 --> 01:42:32,960
down there for like a year and
he lived in fatigues. Yeah, he

1470
01:42:33,079 --> 01:42:35,760
was so engrossed in it, he
he had a high time coming out of

1471
01:42:35,840 --> 01:42:39,720
character. Not so yeah, well
those guys. I think that that might

1472
01:42:39,800 --> 01:42:44,640
be the only movie I think that
he was actually credited as Larry Fishburn really

1473
01:42:44,840 --> 01:42:47,760
and Lawrence well you know, but
yeah, they said he he went kind

1474
01:42:47,800 --> 01:42:53,039
of off the rails because he was
so engrossed in the movie. Harrison Ford

1475
01:42:53,159 --> 01:42:55,479
was in it. He was then
it f a little bit yeah, very

1476
01:42:55,520 --> 01:42:59,119
young Harrison Ford, like the intelligence
officer or something. Yeah, what an

1477
01:42:59,199 --> 01:43:01,960
incredible movie. That's the combat scenes
in it, the whole I love the

1478
01:43:02,399 --> 01:43:05,760
spell of napalm and the the morning
when they attacked that villainch man. You

1479
01:43:05,880 --> 01:43:09,159
talk, we talk about Longest Day
and probably have more people in it.

1480
01:43:09,239 --> 01:43:13,920
But to choreograph all those people running
around at the beginning, the beginning with

1481
01:43:14,000 --> 01:43:15,319
the doors, yeah, yeah,
the soundtrack, you know, with the

1482
01:43:16,000 --> 01:43:18,840
the end. Yeah. Yeah,
it was the movie. Stunning, stunning

1483
01:43:18,920 --> 01:43:24,439
movie. Yeah. Yeah, the
director's cut is even longer. But yeah,

1484
01:43:24,640 --> 01:43:27,600
I've I've gone to see that a
few times on the big screen because

1485
01:43:27,640 --> 01:43:30,479
it's just it's really worth seeing it. Yeah, it is on the big

1486
01:43:30,560 --> 01:43:32,560
screen. Yeah, I agree.
And and going back to the tomb for

1487
01:43:32,600 --> 01:43:35,720
a second, you know, once
again kind of showing the Vietnam how it

1488
01:43:35,840 --> 01:43:40,159
really was. But that's a movie
that has stayed with me for a long

1489
01:43:40,239 --> 01:43:45,039
time because it was it's like a
lot of movies, like we're also talking

1490
01:43:45,039 --> 01:43:46,840
to you about they were men?
What was that? Is that? What?

1491
01:43:47,000 --> 01:43:51,039
What the what? The mel Gibson
not the really flawed movie, but

1492
01:43:51,159 --> 01:43:54,239
I won't get into that, but
it would show, you know, it

1493
01:43:54,359 --> 01:43:59,199
showed that part of you know,
they'll talk about Trump's movie Trumps. You

1494
01:43:59,199 --> 01:44:01,319
know. It was almost like Cust's
Last Stand. You know, they were

1495
01:44:01,399 --> 01:44:04,359
men or whatever. The name of
the movie was right, the story about

1496
01:44:04,359 --> 01:44:09,159
the Battle of the Eye Dragon Valley, which they get wrong anyway, but

1497
01:44:09,279 --> 01:44:11,840
it was kind of like, hey, we're all amost together. Platoon was

1498
01:44:11,920 --> 01:44:14,399
half the guys in the platoon hated
each other, you know what I mean.

1499
01:44:15,239 --> 01:44:18,800
The tension within the group itself was
as bad as you know, fighting

1500
01:44:18,960 --> 01:44:24,560
get klung. And I think that's
probably more realistic than we're a bunch of

1501
01:44:24,600 --> 01:44:28,600
boy scouts with guns a full metal
jacket. I start at once I did

1502
01:44:28,720 --> 01:44:31,880
my thesis on Stanley Kubrick. I
couldn't watch that movie. That movie was

1503
01:44:32,079 --> 01:44:36,800
terrible. It was I mean,
it's two movies. It's basically the Basic

1504
01:44:36,880 --> 01:44:41,359
Training and then the thing in Vietnam. Okay, take away the basic training

1505
01:44:41,399 --> 01:44:45,840
for a second. When they're in
Vietnam, they're fighting in the city.

1506
01:44:45,880 --> 01:44:48,279
There's no cities in Vietnam. You
know. They fought the Battle of Haway

1507
01:44:48,319 --> 01:44:50,600
and that was it. The rest
ninety nine percent of the fighting was in

1508
01:44:50,680 --> 01:44:54,880
the jungle. So to have them
in an urban environment for the first thing

1509
01:44:55,800 --> 01:44:59,560
was wrong. Okay, it's just
inaccurate. Number two, that Matthew Bodine,

1510
01:44:59,560 --> 01:45:01,600
which was like his third or fourth
choice to be in it, he

1511
01:45:01,680 --> 01:45:04,880
watched that through that like he's a
boy scout in Vietnam, Like you know

1512
01:45:04,920 --> 01:45:09,159
what I mean. It wasn't like
that. It just wasn't like that.

1513
01:45:09,239 --> 01:45:11,640
It's how we think it might have
been like it, but I think Platoon

1514
01:45:11,800 --> 01:45:14,039
was the one that was, you
know, the closest to it, you

1515
01:45:14,079 --> 01:45:15,880
know, the closest to what it
was really like. Basically, you're trapped

1516
01:45:15,920 --> 01:45:19,359
here, and then you can make
it through a year, you'll get out,

1517
01:45:19,920 --> 01:45:24,039
you know, having a victory victory
or the feed or how many are

1518
01:45:24,039 --> 01:45:27,159
you gonna kill or it made no
difference. Just make it through the year

1519
01:45:27,159 --> 01:45:30,159
and you get the hell out of
them. Hey, sweitch to you dodged

1520
01:45:30,199 --> 01:45:35,159
the draft, right, yeah,
and then you went in. That's right.

1521
01:45:35,199 --> 01:45:39,000
I forgot about that. Why didn't
you get drafted there? I had

1522
01:45:39,359 --> 01:45:41,439
a deferment. I was in college. Oh yeah, right, okay,

1523
01:45:41,640 --> 01:45:44,439
yeah, me too. Well,
I was in the in the draft,

1524
01:45:44,479 --> 01:45:47,520
you know. I mean we all
had a lottery yep. And I think

1525
01:45:47,880 --> 01:45:56,239
in seventy one they that was mine
too. They drafted like after number two

1526
01:45:56,359 --> 01:46:01,279
hundred. I was like number three
hundred and twenty something. I was like,

1527
01:46:02,039 --> 01:46:04,560
and I wasn't you know, if
they came for me, I would

1528
01:46:04,600 --> 01:46:08,359
have gone, yeah, but I
wasn't gonna. I wasn't going to volunteer

1529
01:46:08,399 --> 01:46:10,760
and walk into it, thank you. No. I was one twenty nine,

1530
01:46:10,800 --> 01:46:13,560
but they only went up to one
hundred that yeah, I was way

1531
01:46:14,119 --> 01:46:17,279
way out. I I've actually worked
with a couple of guys who were you

1532
01:46:17,359 --> 01:46:21,479
know, who were in Vietnam,
and just some of the stuff they've told

1533
01:46:21,520 --> 01:46:28,560
me, it's unbelievable, unbelievable,
And it's you know, when you hear

1534
01:46:28,640 --> 01:46:32,119
it from from the horse's mouth,
you know, when you hear it from

1535
01:46:32,159 --> 01:46:36,479
the guys who were there, and
he tells you stuff, and like an

1536
01:46:36,479 --> 01:46:40,000
idiot, you you know, I
asked him a couple of questions, and

1537
01:46:40,039 --> 01:46:43,439
he goes, what are you stupid? And he told me things that you

1538
01:46:43,520 --> 01:46:46,760
know, I won't repeat, but
it gave you a whole different outlook.

1539
01:46:46,840 --> 01:46:48,840
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
but it was it was it was survival.

1540
01:46:49,000 --> 01:46:50,840
It was survival. It had nothing
to do with the wall. You

1541
01:46:50,920 --> 01:46:54,079
know, are we gonna let's go
win this wall? No, it was

1542
01:46:54,079 --> 01:46:56,239
like who was going to kill the
most people? You know? And then

1543
01:46:56,439 --> 01:46:59,840
and they will take a body count
of the Vietnamese until someone said to them,

1544
01:47:00,119 --> 01:47:01,439
you can kill as many as you
want. The way that the population

1545
01:47:01,600 --> 01:47:05,239
is, they're always going to be
supplying new soldiers forever. You're never going

1546
01:47:05,319 --> 01:47:08,560
to be able to do it the
way that you're doing it, Okay,

1547
01:47:08,920 --> 01:47:11,960
And and when did it end seventy
five? When did the wall come down?

1548
01:47:12,039 --> 01:47:14,680
Eighty eight? All they had to
do was late like but ten years

1549
01:47:15,000 --> 01:47:17,520
and it would be no communism.
So it's just that's just that that whole

1550
01:47:17,560 --> 01:47:23,680
wah is just a discretion. It's
when politicians get involved in war. That's

1551
01:47:23,760 --> 01:47:26,000
the thing is like, you know, all right, you're gonna go walk

1552
01:47:26,039 --> 01:47:29,159
find but let the military do it. Don't say you can't bomb this city

1553
01:47:29,199 --> 01:47:30,920
on that day, and then you
know you're just wasting your eyes doing that.

1554
01:47:31,039 --> 01:47:32,960
It's going to fight a why did
you go fight it? You know,

1555
01:47:33,079 --> 01:47:34,439
no one wants to do it.
But if you're gonna do it,

1556
01:47:34,520 --> 01:47:38,439
get it over as quickly as you
can, and don't reduce the pin this

1557
01:47:38,600 --> 01:47:42,399
this guy lived, I mean,
he kept going back because he couldn't stand

1558
01:47:42,439 --> 01:47:44,600
not to be with his buddies.
Yeah yeah, yeah, right right,

1559
01:47:44,840 --> 01:47:47,159
And he went back like for four
different tours, and I finally they threw

1560
01:47:47,239 --> 01:47:49,239
them out and said, oh you've
had enough, get out of here.

1561
01:47:49,760 --> 01:47:53,520
Hey, club, you're in the
service, weren't here You're in the reserves.

1562
01:47:54,399 --> 01:47:57,600
Yeah. I was in the National
Guide, you know, And so

1563
01:47:57,960 --> 01:48:02,479
I had a choice was either going
to Vietnam or going the National Guard.

1564
01:48:02,600 --> 01:48:05,600
But we always thought we were in
the gods in those days, that we're

1565
01:48:05,640 --> 01:48:10,319
going to get called up anyways,
gods at the beginning, and I unit

1566
01:48:10,439 --> 01:48:15,000
used to get activated to go down
south and cover units in South Carolina that

1567
01:48:15,199 --> 01:48:19,960
got called over. And we did
a lot with the riots when Kennedy was

1568
01:48:20,039 --> 01:48:24,199
killed and Martin Luther King. We
spent a lot of time out in the

1569
01:48:24,279 --> 01:48:28,880
street. But fortunately, unlike the
division that I was in today, they've

1570
01:48:28,880 --> 01:48:32,560
spent more time over in Afghanistan and
everything else. My division was the first

1571
01:48:32,600 --> 01:48:38,039
division to fight in World War One? Is that right? Yeah? Yeah,

1572
01:48:38,279 --> 01:48:42,359
and that was and they used to
send them out there in the front

1573
01:48:42,439 --> 01:48:47,239
lines with hardly any training and they
and they had like ninety percent casualty rate

1574
01:48:47,560 --> 01:48:53,880
in France. But anyways, you
know, my brother in law, I

1575
01:48:53,920 --> 01:48:57,720
think as I told you, he
was in Vietnam. He was a company

1576
01:48:57,840 --> 01:49:03,319
clerk in the Rifle Division, Rifle
Infanty division. Never fired a shot,

1577
01:49:03,960 --> 01:49:08,720
but he used to spend half the
time out in the jungle because the company

1578
01:49:08,800 --> 01:49:12,840
clerk had to issue all the checks
and everything. Oh today he's a good

1579
01:49:12,920 --> 01:49:15,199
job. He's suffering dearly with Agent
Orange. And he said, oh,

1580
01:49:15,279 --> 01:49:20,880
really, so many different issues and
he's never never fought, he never fired

1581
01:49:20,920 --> 01:49:25,359
a shot. Yeah, there's a
there's five hundred thousand guys over there.

1582
01:49:25,640 --> 01:49:29,600
You know, four hundred thousand were
basically in the rear areas supplying this massive

1583
01:49:29,760 --> 01:49:31,720
army in the jungle, you know
what I mean, which is very hard

1584
01:49:31,760 --> 01:49:35,199
to do, a lot of helicopters
and stuff like that. But not not

1585
01:49:36,000 --> 01:49:40,960
just just just what it did to
not just the American people, what did

1586
01:49:41,000 --> 01:49:45,319
to the Vietnam These people they'll always
hate this no matter what. And you

1587
01:49:45,359 --> 01:49:48,399
know, we destroyed their country and
uh, you know, I mean,

1588
01:49:48,439 --> 01:49:51,439
I really don't want to get real
back into it. But in the fifties,

1589
01:49:51,520 --> 01:49:54,640
they said that, okay, we're
going to have an election here and

1590
01:49:54,680 --> 01:49:57,640
the people in Naunt and Self Vietnam
can determine who's going to be the president.

1591
01:49:57,920 --> 01:50:00,640
And they elected a communist, isn't
it And they you know, allies,

1592
01:50:00,640 --> 01:50:02,399
but it's a no, no,
I'm sorry, we're gonna we're gonna

1593
01:50:02,479 --> 01:50:06,439
change the rules again. That's what
created Noting and Self Vietnam. And that's

1594
01:50:06,439 --> 01:50:10,119
the start of the war. You
know, if they had just if cooler

1595
01:50:10,159 --> 01:50:14,760
heads had prepared prevailed just for a
few years, it wouldn't happen like that,

1596
01:50:15,039 --> 01:50:18,000
you know, but but it did
anyway. This is Vietnam commentary on

1597
01:50:18,079 --> 01:50:23,319
Maclone's Military. I were gonna be
wrapping it up soon. I'm just kind

1598
01:50:23,359 --> 01:50:28,439
of think of like the one really
good sci fi with the movie I would

1599
01:50:28,439 --> 01:50:30,199
go see again. I would go
see the original thing again. I think

1600
01:50:30,279 --> 01:50:33,159
that's one of the best movies the
way that they Yeah, it was probably

1601
01:50:33,239 --> 01:50:39,479
made on the song, but it's
just very atmospheric. You know. Uh,

1602
01:50:39,640 --> 01:50:43,319
what's the one where the kid falls
through the sand duing mott uh,

1603
01:50:43,399 --> 01:50:47,399
switching invaders and mys that's the movie
that stays with me as a kid.

1604
01:50:47,640 --> 01:50:50,600
Yeah, yeah, I think I
just it was on a little while ago,

1605
01:50:50,600 --> 01:50:55,159
and they remade that too. But
the original one is just so creepy

1606
01:50:55,239 --> 01:50:58,680
because it's a kid and then and
all the adults turned into you know,

1607
01:50:58,960 --> 01:51:01,319
the kind of zombies. The black
is it? Who's the Who's the girl?

1608
01:51:01,760 --> 01:51:04,159
Black? Was in the remake,
the remake, I know, the

1609
01:51:04,239 --> 01:51:08,439
remake one. Then the Frystal was
cool, and it was it was filmed

1610
01:51:08,479 --> 01:51:10,960
in a studio on a lot.
You can tell his filmed in an interior

1611
01:51:10,960 --> 01:51:14,640
studio. But there was a once
in an atmosphere when the fact that the

1612
01:51:14,760 --> 01:51:18,159
kid's parents every all the adults around
him in time turn yeah. Yeah,

1613
01:51:18,319 --> 01:51:23,439
yeah, very cool. Jimmy Hunt
and I met him at a few years

1614
01:51:23,439 --> 01:51:27,319
ago at one of the monster bashes
in Mars, Pennsylvania. Really great guy

1615
01:51:27,960 --> 01:51:32,880
and he was known as the g
whiz Kid Whizz Yeah. He told he

1616
01:51:33,000 --> 01:51:38,520
told me that the the British version, they had to have a happy ending,

1617
01:51:38,560 --> 01:51:42,800
they had to have an ending where
they vanquished. They reshot part of

1618
01:51:42,880 --> 01:51:45,600
it. So I finally got a
DVD that has both versions, and so

1619
01:51:46,079 --> 01:51:49,880
it's it was cathartic because when I
was a kid, remember at the end

1620
01:51:50,600 --> 01:51:54,720
that they do, they wipe out
the Martians. Everything's cool, and then

1621
01:51:54,960 --> 01:51:58,880
the kid wakes up and it's a
dream. But then he sees the saucers

1622
01:51:58,960 --> 01:52:05,039
again. Yes the ground did I
feel one of those those creepy Marshalls that

1623
01:52:05,199 --> 01:52:09,399
took over his father. His father
was played by life Ericson Oh right,

1624
01:52:09,479 --> 01:52:13,079
yes, sure, High Chaparone Yah
yeah yeah, and he plays you know,

1625
01:52:13,239 --> 01:52:16,159
this really crabby guy. Everybody could
relate to their father being in a

1626
01:52:16,199 --> 01:52:19,359
bad mood. Yes, guy was
was permanently in a bad mood after they

1627
01:52:19,479 --> 01:52:21,520
put that thing on back. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's

1628
01:52:21,560 --> 01:52:26,319
funny. Yes, and and and
and just the way that well, the

1629
01:52:26,600 --> 01:52:29,399
the you can tell how they made
the movie. They did the story and

1630
01:52:29,479 --> 01:52:31,000
then they filmed like the b roll
as they say. And the big role

1631
01:52:31,159 --> 01:52:35,279
was like the Martians, like running
through the tunnels. It's a lot of

1632
01:52:35,359 --> 01:52:38,720
that. And they're running this way, they're running that way, they're running

1633
01:52:38,760 --> 01:52:42,079
this way, they're carrying around the
little head. Yeah, you can do

1634
01:52:42,119 --> 01:52:45,680
the zippers on the costumes. That's
cool. Right. What about since we're

1635
01:52:45,680 --> 01:52:49,720
going back, what about Forbidden Planet? Oh? Yeah, oh the original

1636
01:52:50,399 --> 01:52:55,760

Richard was based on the rapist. Yeah,

1638
01:53:02,039 --> 01:53:04,039

the Yeah yeah right yeah, how
how deep is that? In Francis,

1644

I'll talk about your Vetmim, you

1645
01:53:25,199 --> 01:53:29,439
There was these actresses in the fifties
and sixties. They're all blonde. Tuesday

1646
01:53:29,479 --> 01:53:34,359
Weld is another one. She was
just so, so, so attractive even

1647
01:53:34,399 --> 01:53:38,439
as a little kid. Jeez,
it was just beautiful. And then she's

1648
01:53:38,520 --> 01:53:42,439
on Honey West. Honey West,
like about two years later. That man.

1649

cobra and she had a pet ocelot

1650
01:53:48,319 --> 01:53:51,159
named Bruce. That's right, she
had her home ostl Yeah, I mean

1651
01:53:51,439 --> 01:53:55,079
serious, I mean she was a
private detective sort of thing. Yeah,

1652
01:53:55,119 --> 01:53:57,800
and she drove a real cobra.
I mean, that guy's worked about a

1653
01:53:57,840 --> 01:53:59,800
million bucks, right now. That's
good. Yeah, she was good.

1654
01:54:00,079 --> 01:54:02,920
Was a really good action. But
they did they remake that? I haven't

1655
01:54:03,199 --> 01:54:05,119
No, I don't know. I
don't know planet. No, I don't

1656
01:54:05,119 --> 01:54:08,199
think so. No. No,
that's a really good movie. They've never

1657
01:54:08,359 --> 01:54:12,439
remade Forbidden Planet that I know of. But that was I mean I remember

1658
01:54:12,520 --> 01:54:15,880
watching that and saying, wow,
that's yeah really because it was in color

1659
01:54:15,399 --> 01:54:19,680

01:54:30,760 --> 01:54:32,880
Yeah, Robbie the Robot, that
was his first, like hundreds of bottles

1664
01:54:32,920 --> 01:54:40,760
of whiskey. I believe that Robbie
the Robot sold at auction was the highest

1665
01:54:40,920 --> 01:54:44,479
price for a sci fi prop.
Ever, it was like the last time

be off to the gallley. Yep, you know she was having there,

1700
01:57:00,119 --> 01:57:03,680
So let me do the plugs quickly. Home Start Troops is an organization that

1701
01:57:03,800 --> 01:57:08,880
raises money for our veterans who have
been hurt in combat after nine to eleven.

1702
01:57:08,960 --> 01:57:11,920
That's the Afghan Wall. I'll see
Iraqi. Wile these are folks who

1703
01:57:12,039 --> 01:57:15,439
came home. Many of them are
missing limbs. And so what Homestrot Troops

1704
01:57:15,479 --> 01:57:19,359
does is they built them houses that
are adaptable to their situation. So that

1705
01:57:19,479 --> 01:57:23,760
means lower counter space, not a
lot of stairs, things of that nature.

1706
01:57:24,039 --> 01:57:27,000
And then when they build them the
home, they rip up the mortgage.

1707
01:57:27,119 --> 01:57:29,760
They give them the keys. It's
their home forever. They don't have

1708
01:57:29,920 --> 01:57:33,319
to go through life worrying about every
month paying the mortgage. They can go

1709
01:57:33,399 --> 01:57:36,520
out and rejoin society. They've done
a lot for us, so we should

1710
01:57:36,520 --> 01:57:40,600
do a lot for them. Home
Strut Troops. Ninety cents on your dollar

1711
01:57:41,199 --> 01:57:44,359
goes to our veterans. That's very
high and the charity business these days.

1712
01:57:44,640 --> 01:57:48,039
Please google them and see what they're
about. Homestrow Troops. I want to

1713
01:57:48,039 --> 01:57:49,880
say, once again, we live
in crazy times. But you have to

1714
01:57:49,960 --> 01:57:54,880
remember John McCain, who I didn't
even vote for. I didn't really agree

1715
01:57:54,920 --> 01:57:57,880
with his politics, but he was
not a loser. He's an American hero.

1716
01:57:58,520 --> 01:58:00,239
Keep that in mind no matter what
you here. Okay, he is

1717
01:58:00,319 --> 01:58:03,079
not a loser. He was an
American hero people we can look up to.

1718
01:58:03,880 --> 01:58:08,279
And that's it. All right,
that's about it. We hit the
