Mac as someone who has younger siblings. You have nieces and nephews. Have
you ever come across Kids Bop? Kids Bop? Kids Bop? Yeah?
Kids Bop was around when we were kids, ten, eleven, twelve.
Have you listened to kids Bop? Uh? Not in a while? Okay?
Good, So I have a little Uh. I can't play any music.
We don't own the rights to any of this music. Okay, I'm
gonna read you the original line from a song, and I need you to
tell me how kids Bop changed that line. Okay, can you what's the
year range here for these for these songs? So you know all these songs
and I'll tell you which Kids Bop it's off of. Oh that doesn't help
me all Mac from Kids Bop twenty four, one of your favorites right right,
the song thrift Shop by Mac Lamore and Ryan Lewis you know it?
Yeah, of course, I'm gonna pop some tigs. The original line I
was in my pocket. The original line from the song is walk up to
the club like, what up? I got a big cock? What do
you think? Kid Bop says? I thought he says dick? Did they
say cock? I'm looking at cock? Right here. You got a big
house? You think? The kids say, I get a big house.
Yeah, that's what I'm going with. Lock it in. The kids say,
walk up to the club, like, what up? I got a
hit song? Okay, good enough? Okay, So you're kind of feeling
where they're going with this. It's not bad they avoided the big altogether.
I would have just put a different noun in there. From Kids Bop forty
the song truth Hurts by Lizzo Are You Aware of It? Great too?
The original line is I'm one hundred percent that bitch. Just took a DNA
test. Turns out I'm one hundred percent that bitch. What do the kids
say, just took a DNA test? Turns out I'm one hundred percent the
best. That's not bad. Actually not the answer. I'm one hundred percent
that kid. Oh so they did what? Okay? They do what I
wanted them to do on the first one. All right, fair enough?
Okay? Once again? From Kids Bop twenty four, Once again thripshop?
Are you aware of the song? By Maclamore and Ryan Lewis Well, there's
a lot of line changes in this song. It's a lot of cussing,
so probably should have washed. This smells like R. Kelly's sheets. What
did the kids say? The kids saying, no, mister Kelly, can
I get the line one more time? Probably should have washed this smells like
R. Kelly's sheets. Oh boy, I don't know which direction to go
with this one. They're gonna they're not gonna name drop anyone, so it'll
be like really broad. Smells like something feet because feet is close to sheet,
you're close. Smells like dirty socks. Probably should have washed. This
smells like my baseball cleats. Someone really cooked. They heard sheets and they
said, I've been waiting for a cleat ride my whole life. Let's keep
going. Kids Bop twenty two, Yeah, Nicki Minaj Starships. Have you
heard it? The ships med they can tell that you have. There's a
line in the song that says, we're higher than a motherfucker, Higher than
a motherfucker. What do the Kids Bop say? Higher that it won't be
mother lover, they won't even use mother at all. Higher than Oh I
don't know. This one's got me caught up pretty good. I got'm blank
on this one where Kids Bop and we're taking over hold on so set so
that replaced a lot of words there. Yep. Okay, give me the
Nicki Minaj line one more time. We're higher than a motherfucker. And the
kids Bop line is where a kids bop and we're taking over. That's the
worst one by far. Hold on to your pants from Kids Bop twenty seven,
All about that base by Megan Boom boom boom boom base. Oh.
I'm saying super bass right now about that. It's just like, hey,
you guys like do wop? I want to bring dou wop back. Boys
like a little more booty to hold it nights. What did the kids Bop
say, Boys like a little Oh. Maybe they don't even get into that
though, because that's implying boys like something about the girls. They're probably gonna
avoid that altogether. Kids like a little more Oh. I don't know,
I don't know. Give it to me. I got nothing for that one.
Don't let it keep you at home in your room at night. Okay.
So trainer line originally is boys like a little more booty to hold it
night, and then the kids Bop line is don't let it keep you at
home in your room at night? All right. I never would have got
close to that that might be worse than the last. Well, let's keep
on going. Let's just do all this all right. We have a short
episode. We have monkey Man. This is kids. I have a three
year old. I listened to a lot of this from Kids Bop Dance Party,
Kesha TikTok, which I'm wondering if they change the line of wake up
in the morning, feel like Diddy, because it's not a good line no
more. By the way, I'm very much in on people saying no Diddy,
No, I really, I really like that. I've taken to that.
Before I leave, brush my teeth with a bottle of jack. What
do the kids say, brush my teeth with a bottle of brush my teeth
with a bottle of I want to say floss, but that doesn't make sense.
It's just that makes zero. It just yeah, before I leave,
brush my teeth and then I go and pack. Because you brush your teeth
in the morning, you feel good here, hear me out. Now,
you're a parent, You can raise your kid how you like. Just play
them the regular fucking song. It doesn't matter. What you've gotten down to
is that if they learn about Dix and tits at seven, it makes no
difference, makes no difference. It's totally fine. All right. We'll just
skip to the final one from Kids Bop two j Lo Jau rule. I'm
real. Original line is, what's my motherfucking name? Hard loving and straight
thuggin. What do the kids say? Bitch? I ain't doing this shit
for nothing? The kids don't say that straight? Oh my god? What
Kids Bop? Is this one? Kids Bop two? Wow? So that's
all right. So this came out they were competing with now, way back
when, two different audiences. I suppose, completely different audiences. Uh,
hard loving, straight thugging, hard hugging, straight, hard hugging, straight
loving. That's my loving and all my hugging. You were so close on
that. That sounds like a Beatles song. Oh my loving and all my
huggin. That's Kids Bop? Yeah? How about that one? Good?
Three? Yeah? Just three? King of Queen and Mail Street Entertainment.
Yeah, I do, and I am mad and we are the Mac and
Goo program. We bring you redemntion, ooh vengeance. It's a dish best
served cold. Today we are discussing the latest. Uh, I don't know
what. It's not a blockbuster, so I don't know how you would categorize
this movie. It's not a blockbuster. I think it only release that we
were excited for. It only made ten million dollars over the first weekend it
was released, Okay, and Netflix passed on it? Question Mark back.
Yeah, so a little peel the onion back here, because that's a saying.
This movie started shooting before the pandemic, and then it kind of went
into some turmoil. Uh and Jordan Peel came in and saved it, and
that is in part how it got to the big screen ultimately with Universal,
but it was for a moment a little bit dead. Netflix had passed on
it. There are absolute morons for passing on this. I'll say that this
would be one of the best, if not the best Netflix movie they've Netflix
makes two Ryan Reynolds movies a year and they're the exact same thing. Makes
no sense why they pass on this. What we were talking about before the
money? Oh, how did to categorize this? I would say after seeing
the initial trailer, this became one of like the dozen or so movies I
was looking forward to most of twenty twenty four, And with that in mind,
I don't know if it quite lived up to that expectation, but this
was a pretty good movie. We are, of course, talking about Monkey
Man, Dev Potel's directorial debut. This is a rted ar action and thriller
with a run time of one hundred and thirteen minutes just under two hours on
Rotten Tomatoes, Goo Roddie Tez eighty eight percent from the critics, eighty three
percent from the audience. Yeah, a crisp seventy one on Metacritic. That
all seems great to me. Nothing sticks out there, so I guess I
have no bones to pick with either of those two websites. Kid. This
movie is written by Paul stick with me here, Paul and Gonalwela. Paul
and Gonalwela, who you would know from nothing? He there's nothing he's done
that you would know. Also, Dev Patel was the writer here. The
most notable of the three writers is John Colly. He's had a twenty five
year career or so you know, master and commander of the Russell Crowe movie.
He also was the right on Happy featgu How about that for a catalog,
So it seems like they brought him in because Paul and Dev were kind
of an experience as screen runners and I think he probably helped them along.
Like I said, this is Dev Patel's full length directorial debut a couple of
shorts before. I will say, and it's not one of the bigger takeaways
from the movie, but the movie to me does feel like someone's first time
directing in that it felt like this is directed by someone freshly out of art
school. They really wanted to throw some imagery at you, They really wanted
to throw some dream stuff at you, and like really get across some metaphors
sort of to a fault at times. And there's there's a couple of sequences
in this movie where I'm like, this has kind of taken me out of
what was supposed to be like a rollercoaster ride of a movie. So that's
that's what I'll say about that. Let me ask you a question, obviously,
the movie also stars Dev Patateel. I have seen reviews go both ways
on this. Do you prefer in this movie alone, Dev Patel the director
or Dev Patel the actor? I would say Dev Pattel the actor by a
mile. On the flip side of this, I was just to say the
best thing about the movie was Dev Pattel's performance. I thought it was fucking
amazing. I thought you're about to ride the fence like Dev Patel. I
just asked you for one or the other. I don't think the directing was
bad. Yeah, it just felt like someone wanted to use everything they've learned
instead of just like spotting stuff here and here, here and there. It's
like, oh, look at this metaphor. I'll look at this dream sequence
that's supposed to mean. Like that's what it felt like to me, honestly,
Okay, dude. The synopsis of this movie, an anonymous young man
unleashes a campaign of vengeance against the corrupt leaders who murdered his mother and continue
to systematically systemically I think you go through the one systemically victimize the poor and
powerless. Now, with that synopsis, it would lead you to believe that
this movie is more quickly paced and uh, there's more action fighting in it
than there really is. This makes it sound like they stole my car and
killed my dog and from the get go I'm about to kill and the trailer
conveys that as well. Yeah, trailer makes you think this is gonna be
what this movie is. There's a lot more rises in Falling, and it's
a lot more ramping up like a roller coaster. Like you might get two
two and a half john Wick like scenes, with one of them at the
end being a real, real big one, but don't expect that to be
the full like, don't expect john Wick three where it's just wall to wall
acts. This this is it's actually like a Shakespearean type of story underneath it
all, and at times it's what makes you root so hard for the main
character played by Devotel. At other times it gets in a way in the
way of the best parts of the movie. I always say it, I
don't like action for the sake of action, but you also can't throw an
action movie at me and then go from sixty to zero and like really try
to get into some heartfelt stuff. When my heart was just racing, got
my heart beats at one hundred and eighty, and now all of a sudden,
I'm just like, whoa wait, what the hell are we doing in
this movie? Does that? A couple times as we're climbing back up that
roller coaster to get toward that big climbax, you are like, when are
we gonna get here? And then it does pay off just to get quickly
dissatisfactor. It does hit what you wanted to hit. The last thirty minutes
of the movie are fucking awesome. I do amazing. I have one critique,
and we'll get to it in spoilers. I also have a critique.
I have one note. That's it. The last thirty minutes felt like what
the whole movie should have been. Now, I don't know if they could
have done that, but at the end of somewhere in the middle of Act
two actually, or at the end of Act one, however you want to
define it. After the card chase, you're fucking You're like, all right,
we're rolling. This is gonna be what this movie is about. And
then we take about forty five minutes off. So while I think that could
be shorter, I do think you needed that rebuild to actually get us to,
you know, really feel that we've accomplished something by the time that we
got to the final act. And also, I wouldn't want two hours of
what that final act was, because then that is just John Wick and all.
So I don't think the stunts and the way that things are shot in
this stand out above other action thrillers to the point of you can do that
for two hours. You needed the other stuff to build the story. I
totally agree with you on the in the big picture of things here and I
and I even like the fact that the hero gets knocked down and it has
to come back, like that story is always gonna work. However, after
getting knocked down, there was just too much messiness. And that's what I
said. You can cut that a little bit, yes, but you needed
two hours of we could have This movie could have been ninety minutes, and
I think it would have been a lot better. There's a little too much
of and this is what my main gripe of the of the movie is,
like we care about the main storyline, and then there's these couple other things
that they throw in there, I think, to try to add some depth
to the story, and it doesn't necessarily hit it. It sort of just
gets in the way of what we want to see. Here we go.
Bob oden Kirk's Nobody ninety two minutes long. Yeah. Perfect. If this
movie was that, it would have been a very similar feeling to that too.
That movie's awesome. That movie kicks ass. That was, like,
I think my fifth favorite movie of twenty twenty one. I think that came
out and let me ask you this, off the top of your head,
how many of the uh like the kills in this really stand out to you?
There was probably like three or four in that final thirty minutes that were
pretty awesome. Because I have won, that stands out. But if you're
comparing it to nobody, like I think of that bus scene over anything in
this, the bust scene, and nobody's better than anything of this movie.
Even the four Wick movies, there's probably fifteen of them that would really twenty
that would pop over this. I also felt like the action was a little
frantic at times, like especially the camera work too, But I obviously I
don't want to get too teep into fucking cinematographer. We don't really know what
we're talking about. This movie stars Dev Patel as Kid. They don't give
him a name. He takes on a fake name in this movie. He's
never identified, no real name given to him. Like I said, I
thought the best part of the movie was Dev Patel. I think he does
a wonderful job. Charloto Copley as Tiger. This is the South African or
New Zealand gentleman that runs that fighting ring. Maybe it was New Zealand Australian.
I don't really know something. Let's say South African. Why not.
Peto Bash as Alfonso. This was mister Limpy, like the right hand man
there of Queenie. I just gonna refer to him as Limpy from here on
out. Vippin Sharma as Alpha. This was the trans person at the temple,
like the head of the temple aka Alpha, which they play a decent
role in this movie, and I didn't mind it, but it's also it
was a little much. I felt like we almost get into like a rocky
like mine. They get to a point, so I didn't mind the training
of it, but they get to something in the third act. I was
like, Oh, this is what we're gonna do with this. Yeah,
a little little bizarre for sure. Seconder Kerr as Rana. This was the
police chief, for lack of a better term, the villain of the movie.
He's a real son of a. Bit A Dthi Calcunte as Nila.
This was the mother of dev Ptel's character. I don't know if they ever
name her, but that's what her her name is in the credits. So
Bita du Lapala as Sita. That was the sultry young lady at the brothel
there, the one that he has a small little relationship. I thought she
was very good in it. She was good. Yeah, seemed like an
uneessary character, but she was good. Ashweeney Kaliskar as Queenie. She was
like the head of the brothel. She was the woman boss whose office was
on the first floor there. Makrand Deshpande as Baba Shakti. He was like
this religious figure that's sort of overseeing all of it. And then Zakier Hussein
as Tabla Maestro. This was the temple drummer that also played up in this
that little montage scene. And I guess the other thing that we should know
here or explain to people if they missed it. Hanuman is I guess an
Indian deity god. I don't know what you would call it is the monkey
man. And that's the whole premise for this movie, the whole idea behind
it that his mother tells him the story of Hanuman, and that's how he
seeks his inspiration. Yeah, and you mentioned earlier how you believe that he
had all of these thoughts and he wanted to put a bunch of different imagery
from stuff that he's seen into this movie and I found on X someone posts
this. I'm sorry, I don't have who posted or he who originally posted
it, so that perst Pally stole it. Yeah, but there's a shot
of the kid with his fist by his waist next to Arthur. It's the
exact same image. Yeah, I mean that. I'm sure that happens quite
a bit. Arthur was the first, that's when he hit DW. It's
true. D W was out a line though, right d W. I'm
not gonna call her what I'd like to call her, but she's an all
time one of those when we go to do our best television villains of all
time. Oh good addition will be on there. I'm gonna absolutely forget to
keep that well there, Who's wors d W or Angelica? Angelica is is?
It's a different dynamic because d W is the younger sister who's an annoying
little fuck. I guess for lack of a better where Angelica is older and
has more of a power thing, So I guess he's a better villain.
Okay, let's get back to monkey Man. Calm down, Uh, you
want to get through the gauntlet here? Before we do that, let me
get into this is that I went to see this movie Watertown Majestic seven Love
the Theater. I went and I bought tickets while I was there. I
did not pre order my ticket, so it was already seven to ten,
and the movie was supposed to start at seven ten, so really it's a
seven fifteen seven twenty start. And he turned the screen around for me to
choose my seat. And what I did, by accident is I thought that
I was picking the back row and I took front row center. You are
a moron. So as I was looking at my ticket, I'm like,
hey, hey's not in the back. He's in the front. God no.
So I went and I picked a seat in the back, and I
was asked four times to please get out of people's seats. It was that
full, nice, full audience. It was like I was at a fucking
sport event though, where it's like, hey, buddy, you're in my
seat. It's the seventh thing, and can't you sit over there? You
should have just got up and left at that point after the second time,
like I'm not going to the front. Fuck that. I saw it a
theater with one other person, same theater. But daytime everyone was out looking
at the eclipse. I guess I was watching monkey Man. I did not
have that issue because I generally picked the same seat every time it's actually taped
off for Mac at that theater. Gauntlet Yeah, sure, all right,
let's get to the gauntlet fun factor. I think the fights are solid in
this I think they are fun, but I don't think they are up to
what Wick gives us, or like the creativity of some of these other action
thrillers. But I think what helps it stick out is that you needed that
big build up to get there. It wasn't just wall to wall action.
It was let's build up, let's bring it down, let's bring it up.
And also at the end of the first fight there, it wasn't necessarily
a clean break. It was let's fucking read ourselves. Let's try and figure
this out. And that's what leads to a little more excitement, a little
more satisfactor in that final scene. Yeah. I had some fun with this
movie. I thought, oddly, there were two or three moments in this
movie, which, by the way, was pretty serious of a movie.
There's no real lightheartedness in this movie. But two or three times they try
to be funny and it fell so flat, Like the Nicki Minaj line not
great. Yeah, when he tries to jump out the window and doesn't,
I'm like, what the fuck? Like, what is he gonna say?
Zoins? Like what the fuck was that? It was? So it was
weird. It felt like there was two or three moments that were like they're
like, oh, we're gonna do a little comedic relief, but it didn't
fit tonally at all with the movie. It was very, very weird.
So I did have fun, but there was the funny, and the funniness
they went for did not hit. And I actually do like the fact that
you could feel a lot of the pain from the action in this, Like
you could tell that people were getting hurt. I think that's a I don't
know if Dev Patel did all the stunts and what not, it did have
that very real feeling to it. Though You're right, satisfactor, it takes
this smadge to get there, but I think that builds towards the satisfaction at
the end. Definitely a satisfying conclusion, And I really liked the last shot
of the movie too. I very much enjoyed the ending. It is satisfying
borometer. It takes a while to get there, and while I do like
the build up to get there, they probably could have shaved off a little
bit in that back end of the second act top of the third For a
movie that's under two hours, it really didn't feel like it. It felt
like it was two fifteen, maybe two thirty. It just it lost me.
It lost me in that exact moment you're talking about. And I understand
the character needs to go through that transformation, that understanding, that awakening,
that enlightening that he has, just where they place it in the movie just
didn't. It just didn't work because, like I said, you go from
this crazy chase scene he's running across roofs, and then all of a sudden,
for a good thirty to forty minutes, really nothing happens Halloween. Will
this wane over time? I think it will. Yeah, There'll be a
couple like good clips that I'll make it on TikTok, but there's not a
ton here to come back. Aually, I doesn't ask you, do you
think us remembering that final scene for being pretty fucking cool? Will that make
us kind of forget the rest of the movie As we move further away from
it. I think it's it's always easy to forgive movies when the ending is
satisfying or satisfactory as opposed to movies that were, let's say, eighty percent
of the run time was good and they slip and fall in the landing.
I always prefer landing strong awequator. Is it better or worse than twenty seventeen's
Aquaman? Definitely better. Yes, it's better than Aquaman Max credit Union.
Who are you giving credit to? I guess def Patel because he did everything
and I think his acting is the best part of the movie. So yeah,
Deaf Patateel not like a to me. This isn't one of those things
where I'm I'm like, oh, you gotta go see dev Patel in this
movie. But after watching the movie, it's like, all right, Deaf
Patel did a great job, if that makes sense to you, know what
I mean, Like, I'm not now going out of my way to tell
people to go see Monkey Man. It wasn't that good and he wasn't that
good, but he was the best thing in the movie. Do you think
that the villains were too too dimensional? I also didn't know, and so
obviously deaf Patel's background his first generation English, but his parents were Indian immigrants,
so I also couldn't tell if he was somehow paying homage to some Indian
films he liked, or to Indian cinema. For example, a couple of
years ago, you loved the movie called RRR, which was patently outrageous.
I'd care for it. You loved it. I wasn't sure if this was
trying to do some of that type of stuff. It didn't really, but
like the villains were kind of we should have had a dance sequence in this
movie that would have really broken it out, that would have really lightened the
mood. So you're right about the point you're making. I just didn't.
I'm sure it was. It was intentional. Yes, Pants Tent City,
Excite bike Mania, What got you going? Did it get you going?
It did, but not as much as I thought it was going to.
I loved the brutality of the kill, so we we sort of get the
film is brutal, but there's really no murders up until the final thirty or
so minutes, and I wasn't sure if they were gonna like half asset.
They did not. They full acid. The last thirty minutes. Maybe not
full pants tent, but we get pretty close. It was. It was
a fun final thirty minutes for sure. For those of you tarty to the
Mac and Goo party, we rate everything on a forty hot Dog rating system
and Mac for all of what we just said about this movie, where I
do think that it was fun, maybe not as fun as I was expecting
with that with that revenge thriller action aspect of it, it didn't quite reach
the highs visually that I think wick nobody some of those other movies did.
RR had some amazing visuals in there as well. I really do think that
that builds up while long. I think that adds to the final scene and
it makes it kind of worth it. It made it where yes, it's
a big like, Okay, let's get back into shape, let's find our
self spiritually like you said, and it goes on a tick too long.
But the fact that you got that payoff, it's a recommendation. Now,
the payoff makes it a recommendation. I got it at thirty three hot Dogs
and as of right now, second best movie on the year. Yeah,
I don't disagree with anything you're saying. I think we're roughly in the same
range. I just I think I have a couple more nippicks or a couple
more gripes. The relationship with mister Limpy there like never felt complete to me,
Like it was kind of forced upon us and we just had to accept
it. But all of a sudden, those characters were really there for each
other, and that was hard to buy. But they also are very vague
about the timeline of this movie. So we see at one point that the
election is coming up in like thirty four days, so we know the movie
probably takes place over like forty five fifty days something like that. I don't
know. It was just hard to buy their connection. I didn't care for
that. I also felt like that sultry lady there, the lady in the
green dress that he speaks to, was he was like, did she reminded
him of his mother? Like there was like a weird thing there that they
never really explored. Wasn't she just from the forest? Wasn't she just from
I don't know. They don't explain it. Isn't that what the tattoo meant?
I have no idea. Okay, I have no clue. He knows
what the bird is, but yes, maybe they're from the same area.
Maybe that's there, or maybe he just he loves bird watching. It's possible.
It's possible. Again, I felt like the couple funny moments didn't hit
tonally, didn't make make made no sense with the movie whatsoever. All that
said, the movie does have a good heart here and a good central story
the best part of the movie, even though it is a little messy in
delivering its message. We can always get on board with a sweet revenge flick
and that's ultimately what this is. So it did that good enough to,
like you said, be a recommendation. I got a thirty two Hot Dogs
my number three movie of twenty twenty four. I was probably a dog or
two higher when I left the theater. But it just the movie ultimately feels
uneven, and there are a couple of great things in here. It's just
messy. The movie feels messy, and it feels like it was a first
time director. Clean it up a little bit, and maybe this is like
a thirty six dog movie, maybe in the nobody range. It had that
potential, It had a similar feeling definitely from the jump. It just didn't
quite get the highs of nobody. Shall we spoil, let's do it.
Spoiler spoiler spoiler. My first, the only note if I was Jordan Peele
that I would have gave to him is you leave that mask on, so
when you go back, when you go back to the building with your fucking
mask on, don't take it off before you get in. At least take
out a full fl lore of people with that mask on. I thought that
was very strange. He comes down that alley, he has the mask on.
I'm like, oh, this is gonna be kind of cool. Immediately
takes it off. Yeah. See, in my head it plays out where
he only takes it off when he gets back in front of the chief so
that they can see the emotion in each other's faces. That that to me
would have been better. But they don't do that. So I will say
this the scene prior when he gets back into the bare knuckle boxing and he
just kicks that guy right in the throat, that might have been the funniest
moment of the movie. That like that for sure. It was almost like
an Indiana Jones. Indiana Jones. Yes, yeah, that's that's what you
kind of think of. That was pretty good. That was That was the
best humor that they landed for sure. He does a little spinning back kick
and knocks the guy out. All right, I'm done so so speaking,
so again, quick background here. What we ultimately learn is that this police
chief that he's seeking revenge on in vengeance for his mother, murdered his mother
in a fantastically brutal way. He chokes her basically lifeless and then fucking lights
her in the building on fire. That is horribly gruesome, so that you're
like, oh, yeah, this guy needs to die. On thousand percent.
We also find out that the Baba Shakhti was behind it all. He's
the one pulling strings, but we don't. They don't show us that to
the end, and they like are just weirdly spotting him throughout the movie prior
to that, with no connection between him and deap Ptel's character, and they
don't make it explicit that depth. Ptel even knows that Baba Shaki's behind all
this. So it didn't make a ton of sense for the Baba Shakti to
be like a final at that point. It just seems like the uh,
like, let's kill the rich type of thing, yeah, which is fair.
It's just fair. It's just I didn't care for him being the final
boss. I did like his little slipper knife thing though, that was cool.
I do think that the standout kill from this movie is when he's on
the elevator and he's able to finally get the knife into the guy's neck and
he can't push it further and he uses his malta. Never seen that before.
That. That's yeah, that is the that is the standout kill.
I was very very unique kill for sure. Yeah. Of course it opened
with us getting the story of Hanumann from his mother. I like that.
I did like the classic like keep your friends close, your enemy's closer thing
at the beginning here where he gets a job out at the brothel where all
these rich people from the city go. Like, I like that ingratiating himself
with these people, and he does that by building this relationship with Limpy,
But again I didn't care for that relationship. And then again the weird connection
with Cita, the woman that worked at the brothel, was I don't know.
And he overhears the conversation between Cita and Queenie. Presumably she gets pregnant
and she forces Ceda to have an abortion, which is why Ceda kills her
at the end. Basically like that felt a little off. I didn't.
We didn't really need that or that storyline whatsoever. Uh goo. Yes,
he befriends a sweet alley dog at one point in this movie, and he's
central to the first assassination attempt sneaking the gun onto the premises. We never
see the puppy again. I wanted to have once upon a Time in Hollywood
type of situation here where the dog also joins in on the assault, say
when the dog walks in with a flamethrower. No, and I do like
the fact that he, you know, he had this whole plan thought out.
He had this whole assassination, this whole pretty much terrorist attack planned out
for him to go in there and kill this police chief, but he didn't
have the balls to do it, and he needed to not only build himself
up physically to be smart all upstairs. Yeah. No, I agree.
And I also liked the original plan of putting the bleach in the cocaine,
so the chief had to go to the bathroom and he corners of them in
there. I liked all of that. That was good. And then that's
sort of sort of where we hit the brakes and we end up at this
temple. I don't know how they how he gets from the river to the
temple, though he gets fucking clipped from the helicopter in the water, and
then all of a sudden he ends up at this temple. They find him
right how I don't know. Didn't they say that they saw him go in
there and then they went and they got him question mark, I guess,
I don't know. So he ends up at this temple with what appeared to
be all trans people, and these people have been basically ostracized from the city,
from the community, so they've now kind of come to this temple to
seek refuge. And since he is now being ostracized he's on the run,
they take him in and nurse him back to health. I get why they
do that, and it made sense why the temple did that for him.
It just went on a little too long there and then like the stuff with
the drummer was fucking weird, like music, it was fine. Like I
said, we went from this rising action of the assassination car chase and then
we're just down here in this valley for just for too long. It was
necessary for character motivations and to make Depotel's character whole. It just happened for
too many minutes when they joined the killing and they're all pretty skilled with their
weaponry too. Yeah, I didn't see them training or anything. Also weird.
Also weird. And then they one had a sickle like, yeah,
that was that was I'm not gonna say jump in the shark, but I'm
like, all right, like I can kind of buy this. This is
fine. Yeah, but then we get past that. He kicks a bunch
They all kick a bunch of ass in that first floor. But prior to
that, actually I wanted to make this point. He turns on the gas
in the kitchen with the open flame, and there is an explosion in the
building. But somehow no fire, no smoke. They just the building's fine.
They just keep fighting throughout the building. Didn't make a lot of sense.
He gets up to the champagne room kills the chief of police in a
very satisfying way. That was good. Uh. He lets the little political
guy escape, which also felt like we didn't need all that stuff that was
just kind of tossed in there, or even like like you you don't mean
anything, you are pointless to all of this. You're just a puppet.
If I don't kill you, you have nothing without these people. Anyways.
Yeah, that's essentially what you gather from that. And then he goes into
that final area where there was a pool, I guess where Baba Shakti is.
He kills Baba Shakti, but also seemingly he dies there too. It's
a little ambiguous, but I like the way that it ended, where he's
finally like at peace with himself and you don't necessarily know if he makes it
or not. It was a good ending to the movie, like, that's
what his purpose was. And they even talked about what your purpose is who
you are, and his job was to not only get revenge for his mother
but for his people. Yeah, and he also gives the temple with all
that money too, which is like a nice little thing but definitely feels shoehorned
in there. Yeah. I liked it. Yeah, sure, Yeah,
thirty three ducks thirty Go and check it out. Yeah, go and check
it out. I don't regret paying money to see it. I'll say that
let's get into Max Sack and maxak It could be anything that could be a
boat in mac you actually have something in your sack. Yeah. I thought
about this as I leave a movie titled Monkey Man, in which a man
wears a monkey mask and also being a couple months removed from June two,
where Paula Trades chooses a desert mouse muadeb to sort of take on his personality
or take on the personality and traits of that animal. I asked you,
Goo, Yes, if you had to embody an animal or take on the
traits of said animal as your sort of personality, as like a vigilanti or
a leader of people, what animal would you choose as a vigilante? Okay,
I guess. I guess a bat So what about that? That's fucking
with you? I'm not Batman. I actually did look this up earlier,
and I think that I came to a pretty good conclusion here. There is
an animal that symbolizes friendship, peace, mischievousness, kindness, and family.
Oh what is the honor? The honor? Okay? All right? Yeah?
They hold hands with their loved ones while they're floating there. Mm hmm.
Creative thing, yes, interesting. Yeah, they're smart animals too.
They use they use tools. One of the few animals that uses tools.
I put things on my belly when I eat them. That's an acceptable answer.
How how would you possibly fashion? Would you do a mask, an
au or mask, or would you have an outfit? Yeah? I would
definitely do something that's like kind of slimy that when I dive into the water,
I get a little extra zeus. Sure. Sure. By the way,
I went through like twenty five animals. What this was one of the
first ones I thought of. I think Dolphin's an easy answer because they're smart.
But how do you get a convey dolphin owl? For me? Go?
Because owls are wise, they can fly, judgmental, pretty cool.
They're also predators as well, and they do the whole neck thing. I
don't. I guess i'd probably have an outfit similar to the dude and watchmen.
That's that's what I would have. That's a little float and owl vehicle
too. Yeah, some others that I took a look at meerkats because they're
naturally anxious, so that would be more you and the meerkat are similar.
Yeah, that's pretty much the duck billed platypus right right. I'm a fan
of the blue footed booby. I looked into a possum. Why possum I
thought they were cool. Okay, you're the first person on the planet to
think possums are cool. I almost went with a raccoon, but I'm the
opposite of nocturnal. I can't stay up past nine. I do like raccoons
also smart. I don't know if they use tools, but they have apposable
thumbs. They have thumbs that people sometimes think of them as being monkeys.
I think monkeys are bigger than raccoons. No, like they get comparisons because
of their thumb in their brains. Okay, fair enough. I did a
lot, a lot of animals in the weasel family. I'd like to have
a list. Maybe I'll look it up when we're done here, list of
animals that have opposable thumbs. I'd like to see that list. I think
it's primates and raccoons. That's it. It got No, I think it's
just those. Gotta be more. You can look it up all you want.
Like sloths, slap lots only have three fingers. Yeah, you might
be right about that. I guess a sloth for you too, because you
look like one. I almost like kangaroo. Kangaroo kangaroos are kind of cool.
I don't know I don't know what. I couldn't wear a kangaroo mask
though my costume would just have to have a long ass tail. What I
think I'm like so Monkey Man also in Dune too, they're not wearing costumes
to show up, I know, but you have to embody it in some
way. He wears the monkey mouse spiritually all the trades, sort of acts
a bit like the desert mouse. So I was trying to think in that
vein, But I'm thinking in this world, if I were good, I
would embody something I would naturally have to wear or try to look like the
animal. Now, I would wear the mask up until the last possible second
and then take it off before the fight. I would take it off beforehand
because I know I'd be breathing heavy. That's why we can't see your face,
but we can hear you breathing your mac. Right. I looked up
so many fing animals earlier. I spent way too much time on this dumb
question. Oh good, you got you gotta get answer though. Thank you?

four episodes, you get eight episodes. It's a lot of episodes. That
is eight episodes. I got no time, you got time, you got
time. I broke my glasses you wear glasses. No, that's a reference
to the Twilight Zone. Remember when that guy finally had time he could read
all of the books, then his glasses broke. That's a different thing.
Classes that is also that is from my girl. Yeah, that's actually was
at work the other day and we started out just doing a bee reference off.
It was pretty good. There's a lot of references to bees in movies
and television. Why did you do that? Someone did a story about bees
and how they're all moving to Texas or something. Okay, so then you
know you got arrested developments, beads, beesw Yeah, we'll talk about this
a little bit on Dump on the Pipeline. We will have an episode surrounding
Curby You Enthusiasm him Curby Enthusiasm finale. Couldn't believe he did it. I
had a shit eating grin the whole time. I thought it was fucking great.
This past season of Curb was very good. Curb got to the point
where he could wake up write a Curb episode and it was gonna be good
no matter what. But there were a couple all timers this past season.
I only saw the last scene. Do I have to watch the last two
episodes. You gonna watch the whole series, the whole series. When when
was? What season did you stop watching when they went to Paris? That
was my last episode when they went to Paris. Yeah, when him and
him and JB. Smooth went to Paris. The end of nine. It
might be the end of nine. It was the Michael J. Fowx episode.
Oh that's dude, that's like the end of eight. As the end
of nine. I think that's a while ago. That was a really good
season too. They just took a lot of time off in between. Yeah,
that's when they go to New York because Larry told the guy he was
going to New York, so then he had to actually commit to it so
he wouldn't go to the fundraicher right. Uh, maybe we could do I
don't know. At the very least, we could do like top ten Curb
guest stars. I don't know. There's a lot of things we could do
Curb related. Give me like three years and I'll get these all done.
Finale was fifty four minutes too, which was nice. All right. So
Tuesdays were Guesdays. I Abuse Kangaroos, Tam Burn Bye, please flip the
cassette over to Side B to continue the adventure.
