Speaker 1: It's the JB and Sandy Show. And for those of
Speaker 1: you listening to us on the iHeartRadio app, make sure
Speaker 1: you tap that follow button and allow your notifications. It's
Speaker 1: Austin's eighty station one oh three point one. He joined
Speaker 1: us every Friday. Stephen Presley find him on Instagram at
Speaker 1: thunder Pop TV. Same thing on YouTube. We've got a
Speaker 1: lot to talk about. It's kind of that time of
Speaker 1: the summer where the big movies are coming out, and
Speaker 1: one of them is the new Brad Pitt movie. F
Speaker 1: won the movie and Brad Pitt was in Austin to
Speaker 1: promote the movie, Wasn't You?
Speaker 2: He surprised audiences at the Bob Bullock Imax Theater this week. Yeah,
Speaker 2: Brad Pitt in the flesh. What's funny is a few
Speaker 2: weeks ago we talked about Tom Cruise announcing ahead of
Speaker 2: time that he was going to be in Texas for
Speaker 2: some movie theater appearances, and Tricia was like, tell me
Speaker 2: when Brad Pitt's coming, That's the one I want. And
Speaker 2: I was like, okay, but sure enough this time though,
Speaker 2: they didn't pre announce it because I'm sure Tricia would
Speaker 2: have been downtown camping, camping Brad Pitt. If that's why
Speaker 2: they probably didn't re announce that Brad Pitt was going
Speaker 2: to be at the Bob Bullock is because the ladies
Speaker 2: might have gone a little bit too crazy in Austin.
Speaker 2: But yeah, he surprised audiences at the at F one
Speaker 2: movie screening, and this was right after he had been
Speaker 2: in New York where they shut down Times Square for
Speaker 2: a big premiere in New York.
Speaker 1: I have two observations having seen the video of Brad
Speaker 1: Pitt walking into the theater at the Bob Bullock. Two things. One,
Speaker 1: I was incredibly impressed with the women that maintained their
Speaker 1: senses and didn't just run down and start humping his lege.
Speaker 1: That would have been me. I was really impressed with
Speaker 1: the women that were able to the Other thing, And
Speaker 1: it's kind of a question for you, Stephen, he looks
Speaker 1: like an F one driver in this appearance, like his haircut,
Speaker 1: the clothes that he was wearing like very like had
Speaker 1: a tracksuit on, like Lewis Hamilton. Do they do that
Speaker 1: on purpose? Do you know what I mean? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he really got into the role. And
Speaker 2: he came here to Austin. I think it was twenty
Speaker 2: twenty three to spend some time at F one track. Yeah,
Speaker 2: to do some research for the role and kind of
Speaker 2: get prepared for the role. So he spent a lot
Speaker 2: of time with F one drivers learning their their flavor
Speaker 2: and how to become that.
Speaker 1: As the kids say, he definitely had the F one drip,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Definitely.
Speaker 3: The one that knows the sport that's usually lingering around
Speaker 3: is Patrick Dempsey.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, he's always at the.
Speaker 3: F one events. He's a big race entus like he drives,
Speaker 3: he races himself.
Speaker 1: This is one I have a feeling you would recommend
Speaker 1: seeing at the movie theater. Yeah, this looks great.
Speaker 2: It's the top gun director by the way, so it's
Speaker 2: got the DNA to be a potential you know hit.
Speaker 2: And Brad Pitt doesn't always do the blockbustery movie, so
Speaker 2: this this looks like something that could be a blockbustery movie.
Speaker 2: I might have been in a new word blockbustery. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and maybe this is gonna be an outstanding movie.
Speaker 1: I mean, my mom's excited about it. It has to
Speaker 1: be really good for a mom to try commercial for
Speaker 1: F one too. I mean, it's a they're trying to
Speaker 1: grow the sport in America, and this is a great
Speaker 1: way to do it right.
Speaker 4: I saw an interview that he did about it, and
Speaker 4: they were going to actual F one events, and before
Speaker 4: the race started, like when all of the crowd was
Speaker 4: in the stand, they were given like five minutes to
Speaker 4: use the track or to film whatever they were going
Speaker 4: to film. So they were getting the effect of it
Speaker 4: being a legit race because they were actual legit fans
Speaker 4: there and he's driving in a lot of the scenes
Speaker 4: and they were like, how did you remember your lines
Speaker 4: going that fast? And it was like, I didn't care
Speaker 4: about my lines. I just wanted to remember when I
Speaker 4: was supposed to break. It's like I was trying to make
Speaker 4: sure I stayed on the track.
Speaker 1: To be You're kind of the net one guy, aren't you.
Speaker 3: I'm a I'm a fan. Yeah, I don't follow it
Speaker 3: super close. I'd like motorsports, any motorsports.
Speaker 1: The buddy of mine's son is way into it, and
Speaker 1: they get up at like six in the morning to
Speaker 1: watch it live and they're they're I think they're doing
Speaker 1: bong hits and making waffles.
Speaker 3: To You have to that sport if you're a fan
Speaker 3: or you know, like I follow cycling too. It's because
Speaker 3: it's impossible to avoid a spoiler, right, if you want
Speaker 3: to tape it and watch it. That even sounds funny
Speaker 3: to say, now tape it, yeah right, but if you
Speaker 3: want to record and watch it later, it's like it
Speaker 3: will get spoiled before you get to it.
Speaker 1: It's the movie f one and wide release today.
Speaker 2: No, it's actually coming out. It's a few it's Austin's
Speaker 2: it's screen and the eighteenthear in Austin. It's a few
Speaker 2: weeks away. Oh wait, no, this was the twenty first.
Speaker 2: Oh it's this, Yes, it's this. Uh this week? Is
Speaker 2: it this week or next week?
Speaker 1: I think it's this week. Yeah, it's out.
Speaker 3: So you mentioned Tom Cruise, you know, coming to Texas
Speaker 3: to promote, and then you know Brad Pitt. This seems
Speaker 3: like a throwback Hollywood thing, Like is this kind of
Speaker 3: a new trending thing to actively promote a movie? You
Speaker 3: know they used to be able to just go on
Speaker 3: The Tonight Show and call it good right right?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe a new trend because Tom Cruise was doing
Speaker 2: this for Mission Impossible, going out and making the appearances
Speaker 2: at theaters. What's funny about this is as I connect
Speaker 2: the dots. You know, Tom Cruise announced recently that they're
Speaker 2: going to do a Days of Thunder sequel. Okay, yeah,
Speaker 2: his big race car movie. There's always been kind of this,
Speaker 2: Ever since they made an interview with the Vampire together
Speaker 2: Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise, there's been kind of this.
Speaker 2: They're they're friends, but they're also kind of rivals of sorts,
Speaker 2: and it seems like there's always a one.
Speaker 1: Up, one up, friendly competition, friendly competition.
Speaker 2: And when I see this trailer for this F one movie,
Speaker 2: I'm wondering if that could have been the Days of
Speaker 2: Thunder premise for a Days of Thunder sequel aging race
Speaker 2: car driver that gets a new challenge to come out
Speaker 2: of retirement for so, I'm wondering if Tom Cruise is
Speaker 2: somewhere thinking, man, we're gonna have to rework our Days
Speaker 2: of Thunder sequet.
Speaker 1: June twenty seven. By the way, is they okay?
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's much bigger US audience for a NASCAR movie
Speaker 3: than an F one movie.
Speaker 1: That's true. That's true. I always think of you. You
Speaker 1: mentioned Brad and Pete and Tom Cruise out in person
Speaker 1: promoting the movie, and I used to watch Entourage, and
Speaker 1: I remember Ari, who was the agent in the show,
Speaker 1: told Venny He's like Vanny, Vanny, Vanny. They don't pay
Speaker 1: you to act, man, they pay you to promote. They
Speaker 1: don't care if you can act. They just needs you
Speaker 1: out there promoting the movie. Which makes a lot of sense, right.
Speaker 1: Moving along, staying in the movie theme, though, James Gunn
Speaker 1: thinks he knows why there's movie theater experience is dying,
Speaker 1: why movies are dying, and how to fix it. Yeah.
Speaker 2: James Gunn, director of the new Superman movie Guardians of
Speaker 2: the Galaxy, he said the movie industry is dying, and
Speaker 2: here's why he thinks. So. He says that a lot
Speaker 2: of scripts, a lot of movies get greenlit without a
Speaker 2: finished screenplay. And his policy now that he's running DC
Speaker 2: Studios is that no matter how big the IP is,
Speaker 2: the intellectual property like say Batman for example, no matter
Speaker 2: how big that is, if the script is not good,
Speaker 2: I'm not going to green light it, no matter how big.
Speaker 2: And he said that's the problem with Hollywood. They went
Speaker 2: through a trend and he says that's what's kind of
Speaker 2: killed Marvel recently, is they would just greenlight these movies
Speaker 2: because they want a new whatever Fantastic four movie, not
Speaker 2: caring whether they had a good script for it or not.
Speaker 2: He just killed a movie with There Was Gonna Be
Speaker 2: with Colin Ferrell, based off of Me, a big comic book.
Speaker 2: He just killed that movie because they couldn't get the
Speaker 2: script right. A Batman movie they've been trying to make
Speaker 2: for a while. He won't green light this new Batman
Speaker 2: movie until they get the script right.
Speaker 1: That makes sense business wise, doesn't it? Absolutely? That bad
Speaker 1: movie can kill the franchise? Yeah? Right? And if you're
Speaker 1: already green lid, are you gonna really put all your
Speaker 1: effort in the right your Yeah? I mean, but if
Speaker 1: you're hungry and you really want to get approved, and
Speaker 1: you're going to put the effort into to create a
Speaker 1: good script, right, I think so, James Gunn doing things
Speaker 1: a little bit differently. Stephen Presley, our guest. Let's talk
Speaker 1: about movies some more, and let's talk about the name
Speaker 1: could gun Remake, which is out here is the trailer
Speaker 1: for that. Who are you driven? Detective Frank Kreven and
Speaker 1: you friend are the best of the best. So as
Speaker 1: you served twenty years for Man's Laughter, you mean man Slaughter?
Speaker 1: Must have been quite a joke. Nobody messages, what's the squad?
Speaker 1: This stuff still works? Money Man's laughter. That was so good.
Speaker 3: Oh my god.
Speaker 1: The trailer made us all laugh and I'm ready. I'm in.
Speaker 1: I'm in for Naked.
Speaker 3: I hate to reference like before the show conversations, but
Speaker 3: I said, does that humor still work today?
Speaker 1: And we're all to die and laugh at all show? Right? Right?
Speaker 1: It does? Uh? What's the story here on Naked Gun?
Speaker 2: There's so many layers to this. For one thing, Panel
Speaker 2: Anderson her comeback.
Speaker 1: She's in this movie. She looks.
Speaker 2: He's more than a second trailer. She looks amazing. In
Speaker 2: the trailer, she has that scene where she comes in
Speaker 2: and says, can I have a seat and they said sure,
Speaker 2: and she takes the seat. Of course, Lisa leaves the office.
Speaker 2: So we're getting we're getting that wrestling fans, you're gonna
Speaker 2: get Cody Rhodes really getting body slammed by Liam Neeson
Speaker 2: in this in this movie. Uh, I'm only concerned with
Speaker 2: this is that The thing with all comedies is I
Speaker 2: hope they're just not showing all the funny stuff in
Speaker 2: these trailers that's actually in the movie and getting it
Speaker 2: all away, and there's not gonna be any other funny
Speaker 2: things when you go to see the actual movie, and
Speaker 2: so you're gonna already know ahead of time what all
Speaker 2: the jokes were. So hopefully there's some other funny stuff
Speaker 2: in there. But the first trailer with the O. J.
Speaker 2: Simpson reference, they just put it right right out there
Speaker 2: right away, like, yes, we are going to you know,
Speaker 2: reference OJ.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because OJ was in the other ones.
Speaker 2: He was in the other ones, and it was quite
Speaker 2: popular in the Naked Gun movies. And actually, and I
Speaker 2: know and JB had watched because we all talked about
Speaker 2: it on the show that the OJ documentary on Netflix
Speaker 2: y and and in that documentary I kind of did
Speaker 2: a little like when I get really fascinated with a
Speaker 2: documentary the topic, I deep dive into it later and
Speaker 2: go online and read more up on this subject. And
Speaker 2: I know that Naked Gun, that last Naked Gun movie
Speaker 2: came out just a few like just weeks before the
Speaker 2: O the uh, the stab the murders.
Speaker 1: Oh really, yeah, it wasn't that far. It wasn't that far.
Speaker 3: I was thinking about the OJ documentary yesterday for some reason.
Speaker 1: On a bike ride.
Speaker 3: I was thinking about it and I don't remember if
Speaker 3: I brought this up. One of the things that came
Speaker 3: up in the documentary. Remember the famous gloves. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: they they interviewed. This didn't make it into the trial.
Speaker 3: They had a testimony from a guy that worked for Isotna,
Speaker 3: which was the brand of the gloves, and they showed
Speaker 3: footage of oj Sideline in an NFL game in the
Speaker 3: winter wearing.
Speaker 1: The exact same gloves.
Speaker 3: Wow, and the guy from the guy from Isotona the
Speaker 3: company said yeah, that's the same model that was presented
Speaker 3: in court. How did that not make the trial, that
Speaker 3: he was seen in those same gloves. I'm getting I know,
Speaker 3: I'm going back into it again, but it's mind blowing
Speaker 3: how that trial got screwed up.
Speaker 4: Also, the eyewitness that saw him fleeing the scene and
Speaker 4: almost hit her in his bronco. They never put her
Speaker 4: on the stand either, Like, as he's leaving having just
Speaker 4: murdered them, he ran a stop sign and they had
Speaker 4: to veer off to not hit each other and they
Speaker 4: came to a stop and she's like, I made eye
Speaker 4: contact with him. Never was taken put into the trial,
Speaker 4: never interviewed her.
Speaker 1: I want to go back to a funny scene OJ
Speaker 1: did and Naked Gun. Oh god it so remember he
Speaker 1: was partners with Frank Drummond and if you remember, OJ
Speaker 1: got shot or run over by a car or something
Speaker 1: and he's in the hospital. Right. They were chasing bat,
Speaker 1: they were chasing drug dealers and OJ knew where the
Speaker 1: drug dealers were and they were selling heroin. And so
Speaker 1: Frank drop or Leslie Nielsen's character comes in and he's like, man,
Speaker 1: I'm really sorry. Is there anything I could do from you?
Speaker 1: And the OJJ whoever the character was all he could say.
Speaker 1: He was like, herein here, owen hererowhen and Frank Droven goes, Jesus, buddy,
Speaker 1: that's a pretty tall order. But I'll see what I do.
Speaker 1: That cries to me. It still makes me laugh. Still,
Speaker 1: I can't wait. I'm in for Naked Gun. I can't wait.
