Hey, everyone, if you're enjoying movie Night, don't forget to rate and
review. Seven Land Productions Presents Movie Night, Season two, Episode one,
The Wrong Decade. It was Wednesday night and Josh and I decided to hang
out, although I wish we chose a different place. I don't like sitting
at the bar. Is there a booth open? Yet doesn't look like it?
What's wrong with the bar? I don't like facing out what I'm talking
to you? I mean, who likes sitting like this and having a conversation?
Look at all the TV's sports bars are first sports. I don't like
sports. You should have gone somewhere else, like a brewery. Well,
we are borderline hipsters. I think we crossed that border a long time ago.
And you could just turn your body and what rest my fucking hand on
your leg, lean in as you tell me a juicy secret. What am
I your fucking girlfriend? Then just turn your head. Stop being so neurotic,
turn my head the whole time and strain my neck. Then face out.
This isn't the score. We're not planning a heist. We should be
facing each other like normal human beings. You didn't want to because apparently that
means we're dating. How do you manage to dissect the most mundane activities and
turn them into some alternate form of societal understanding? Jesus, someone do a
crossword today? What you always use long sentences and big words after you do
a crossword? Ah? So yeah, I did one medium hard, So
you're compensating for not being able to complete it. What makes you think I
didn't complete it? The fact that it was hard? It was. I
can't believe you do crosswords. My grandpa doesn't even do them anymore. What
does that mean? Crosswords are for old people? That's exactly what it means.
What's next? Word searches? P knuckle bridge canasta? This coming from
the guy who hates any movie made after the year two thousand. Not true?
Nolan, Tarantino, and Fincher are all still hitting it out of the
park. Hey, there you go. What baseball metaphor? I think that
doesn't mean I like sports. This isn't my scene. Let's just leave after
this. Beard, Wait, we can't. Cooper is meeting us here?
Fine? Fuck, but we better find a booth zoon. I'll be on
the lookout. So have you heard back from that job? Not yet?
Did you submit both of those reviews and a couple others. Did you proofreed
them? Daisy did ah, that's what she was grading the other day.
I need this job, man, something new. I can't keep doing numbers.
How does one do numbers? All I do day in, day out
is input lines and lines and lines numbers. I zone out all the time.
I thought the job was going to be so cool when I applied security
firm. Oh yeah, you thought it was going to be hackers and it
turned out to be more like the Internship basically, although I never saw the
internship yeah me either. Still seems like the simile works or is not a
metaphor. Hitting it out of the park was a metaphor, but I don't
think that was It was a comparison. Oh so similar. I don't know
similes, metaphors, analogies. I can never remember the definitions or uses.
And this is why you should stick to medium crosswords. What about you?
I do sidocus, Well, look at the bright side of doing sidokus.
No of your job, at least you have one. I mean it's a
job. I kept it because I had to, but now I no longer
need it. You mean want what you no longer want it? What did
I say need? What other option is there? Well? I no longer
wanted them, but you need it? Well, yeah, I need a
job. Hey, when you mentioned good directors, how come you didn't say
the Coen Brothers. They've had a few duds since two thousand. Spielberg Peke
Spielberg was eighties early nineties Alan wood He yeah, I thought you liked him.
No, No, no, no, Woody. Allen is very hit
or miss. Hey another baseball metaphor hit or miss, isn't it? I
think that can be applied to anything, but I think it was derived from
baseball derived You really think Alan is that bad? Would he? Yes?
Would he? Yeah? He's hit or miss so half the time he's not
great. Hey, Cooper just walked in? How did you get a drink?
Already? Hey guys, how did you get a beer? I thought
for sure i'd be paying. No, it's free. When I walked in,
they were handing him out. No. I walked by the bartender and
I saw he's about to dump it. He poured the wrong one for a
customer, So I was like, I'll drink it. Can you give it
to me? Of course? And here I thought we missed our free one
when we came in. It wouldn't just pass them out. You said you
got one when you walked in. I did, But the way you worded
it made it sound like you got one right when you walked there. I
did, but you had to walk over to the bar and ask the bartender
not to pour it out. Yeah, so he wasn't just handing them out
to people. Well, he handed me this one, but not right when
you walked in. Yeah, it was okay. I can't, Josh,
you want to explain to him what I mean? Not really? Well,
I'm finished. Can we go now? Yo? I just got here.
I like these seats. We can see all the games. Brad doesn't like
sitting at the bar because he likes facing who he's talking to. We could
turn our stools to face each other, Cooper, the stools around. Turning
the stools does nothing. I mean, I mean us we can turn and
face each other. No, because that don't mean we're in a three way,
right Brad? Oh fine, why don't we just get a booth in?
Oh? Why didn't we think of that? Never mind, they're all
taking Oh gosh, darn it. If only we looked sooner. You mock
him, but he did get a free beer, meaning meaning I'm smart.
Really, Hey, Coop, what's a metaphor? I don't know what's a
meta? How can I tell you what it's for if I don't know what
it is. I'm leaving. See you guys Friday. Those of them.
He doesn't like sports. Why did we come here? We should have hit
up a brewery. I'll mention that to him next time. Daisy, I'm
putting my rent on the counter. Don't do that. Everyone's going to be
here soon, so don't leave money lying around. You think they'd steal it?
Some of them? Possibly? You don't think much of our friends,
do you? Are you shocked? Okay? Okay, Brad or Cooper?
What about them? You think one of them would steal something? It would
be out of those two. Yeah, you don't think Anderson is capable of
stealing. Anderson is too nice. If someone bumps into him, he apologizes.
That doesn't mean anything. Anytime they find a murderer, the first thing
they do is interview the neighbors and what did they always say? But he
was so nice and quiet. I would never expect anything like this. How
did we get to murder? I was making a point about extremely nice and
quiet people. You think Anderson could kill someone? I don't know. Maybe,
Okay, rank the movie night crew, how most chill least likely to
commit murder? Are we talking revengeer just playing old psychopath? I'm talking Zodiac
Helter Skelter tucked the penis in between the legs and dance to que Lazarus type
M. I'll start least Cooper's first, then Kelly, Brad, and finally
Anderson. Wow, you really believe Anderson is capable of murder? I think
he's hiding a lot. He's your friends, which makes it easier to judge
him. How about you my order? Yeah? Quickly, okay, Anderson,
Kelly, Cooper, really, Brad. I swear to God, if
i don't get this fucking writing job and I'm forced to stay at this current
hell hole, I'm going to blow up everyone in that building. I'm not
even the Gift two ships security firm. I know all the codes. Let's
see them stop me, and you know what, I'm gonna do it on
a fucking Tuesday, so everyone still has to work Monday that week. Bad
at work? Yeah, okay, I'd like to change my order. What
are you guys talking about you. Guys get uber eats. Now you were
talking about me. Weren't you paranoid? Much? Says the woman locking her
door all the time. Now dangerous precedents, Brad. I'll be damned if
Cooper sleeps in my bed again. I think I'm gonna make a martini tonight.
Are we watching Bond? No? What do you allan pick? What?
I thought you didn't like him? I never said that. You said
half his movies were bad. I said he was hit or miss so so
the other half of his movies are good? Jesus, which one? I'll
describe it when everyone's here. You know, there's always a preamble, Josh.
Speaking of preambles, You still writing, Brad, Yeah, but not
as much. I've already sent in samples and they haven't responded. It's still
good to keep writing, not if it doesn't lead anywhere. But you could
apply other places. But my specialty is film reviews and filmstrip covers, old
films, which is perfect for me. That's my favorite time period. Old
forties did the sixties, although if I really had to choose, I'd go
strictly forties. I was born in the wrong blackade. Do you really wish
you were alive at the time. Yeah, why not? I mean World
War two should be a deterrent Come in, No, I locked it again?
Really? Hey, guys? Kelly and Anderson entered, and while Cooper
was also there, he stayed outside, head down, shoveling his feet.
What's with him? Coop? What are you doing? Can I come in?
You don't have to ask? Well, last time you yelled at me,
you came in unannounced, ate my food and slept in my bed.
He full of goldilocks. I'm literally holding the door open, Cooper, you
can come in, okay. The fact that you don't understand the difference is
kind of unsettling. Are you still talking to me? Never mind? What
decade would you rather live in, Josh? I'm fine with now? Really?
What a boring answer? What are we talking about? Brad likes old
movies, so for some reason he thinks it would be great to live in
the forties, to like, I don't know, catch the Maltese Falcon opening
weekends. I like the style of the forties as well. The fifties were
much better. How so you're thinking strictly about movies. What about music?
Wait? If we're talking music, then the sixties were the best Beatlemania.
That's the decade i'd choose. You would want to be born in the sixties.
No, live through the sixties. So born in the fifties more like
forties. Okay, so you're born in the forties. See born in them,
not living through them? The forties said good music too, big band
stuff. Glenn Miller, Artie Shaw, Benny Goodman. I like how I'm
old because I do crosswords. But you just said big band and gave examples.
Brett, what about World War two? So I avoid the draft?
Okay, Trump, don't start with me, Kelly. I think I'd go
eighties more eclectic music. Movies were fawn arcades, MTV was still music.
Plus. Anderson has a thing for big hair big hair bands. I think
they're just known as hair bands. No. No, he's got a thing
for like perms on girls. Why did you have to specify that. I
just find it attractive. He likes big hoop earrings too. Does he make
you wear that stuff in bed? Do you really want to know? No?
I retract my statement. It was a question. I think I think
I would want to see the Renaissance. I like their festivals. That was
a hell of a decade, Coop were ready to start this movie? What
are we watching? Brad? Thank you for asking. Daisy, Tonight is
a special pick. I decided to go with something newer after Josh and I
had a discussion at a sports bar that I'll never return to. What are
you allen? Very hit or mister and not making movies in the forties.
Please don't interrupt. The reason I chose this film, which is titled Midnight
in Paris, is because of the issue that was just discussed earlier. Makes
sense? But are you sure everyone hasn't seen it? Because Anderson and I
have. I never got around to seeing it me either. There's the answer
to your question. See it's not always about you, Kelly. No,
Please, no more interruptions. This film has a great story that dissects the
themes of nostalgia and modernism. It compares in contrast aspects of society and culture
between the present and the past, wow, exploring the idea that people generally
believe that past was better for some reason or another. How long is this
movie? I have no idea, like an hour and a half? Why?
Oh sounds long. The film sports an amazing cast of great acting,
although mcadam's overdoes it a bit, but it also has wonderful cinematography and direction.
I don't know. I'm not a fan of Woody Allen. Something tells
me it's because of his off screen life. He married his daughter, adopted
daughter, it's still his daughter and really gross. Hey, I'm not saying
the guy deserves a Nobel Prize for Fatherhood, but he directs the hell out
of this movie. Is there a Nobel Prize for Fatherhood? No? Just
motherhood? Oh? Cool? But Brad, the real question is do you
have Midnight in Paris on Blu Ray? I always have it on Blu Ray,
like you carry it around on you and Casey needs to be pompous in
a pinch. I mean that if I like a movie and I'm showing it
on a film night, yes, I'm gonna have it on Blu Ray.
Cool? Can we start ready when you are? While everyone made their popcorn
and got their drinks, I quickly made another martini. Daisy got the film
set, and I jumped into my normal seat next to Cooper. You know
whatdy Allen has been accused of sexual assault. Hey, I bought this movie
before me too. Okay, it's fine It's fine. At least he not
in the movie. Kelly doesn't like watching anything with Alan Kirk Douglas and now
Kevin Spacey or Bill Cosby. Bill Cosby, he should be easy to avoid.
Have you seen his filmography? The dude was in Leonard Part six?
Huh? I never saw part one through five. No one has hashtag me
too, No, because there wasn't a part one through five. Coop,
Kelly, aren't you limiting yourself a bit much? I mean no La Confidential,
Sparta Kiss or Manhattan Woody. Allen needs an under each girl in Manhattan.
So no, that film did not age all. Hey, guys,
I want to change my answer. What um, what are you talking about?
Forget about the renaissance, that's easy, hardly remember it. I think
a cool decade to live through would be like Dinosaur times. And you're worried
about him taking our rent money. Theft has nothing to do with intelligence.
What are you guys talking about? Me? Brad start the movie? I'm
starting the movie. Movie Night written and edited by Robert M. Lamb,
