WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:03.960
<v Speaker 1>Maybe the most important thing about the movie Mission Impossible.

2
00:00:04.000 --> 00:00:06.919
<v Speaker 1>The final reckoning has been the press tour leading up

3
00:00:06.960 --> 00:00:10.679
<v Speaker 1>to this movie that has been all about Tom Cruise

4
00:00:10.759 --> 00:00:16.039
<v Speaker 1>is love not only for movie going but movie theater popcorn.

5
00:00:16.440 --> 00:00:18.600
<v Speaker 2>Oh I was not aware of this. Well that's good

6
00:00:18.640 --> 00:00:20.879
<v Speaker 2>to hear because him and I share that passion.

7
00:00:20.960 --> 00:00:22.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how you miss it. It's been all

8
00:00:22.359 --> 00:00:26.519
<v Speaker 1>over social media him talking to movie theater employees just

9
00:00:26.640 --> 00:00:31.280
<v Speaker 1>shoveling down popcorn. Or there was a screening where he

10
00:00:31.359 --> 00:00:34.039
<v Speaker 1>walked by someone he was holding a microphone about to

11
00:00:34.039 --> 00:00:36.520
<v Speaker 1>go on stage, and he looked over at someone in

12
00:00:36.560 --> 00:00:39.560
<v Speaker 1>the audience and he goes, I already finish your popcorn.

13
00:00:40.399 --> 00:00:43.079
<v Speaker 1>And you might think that he's calling the man out

14
00:00:43.159 --> 00:00:46.799
<v Speaker 1>for eating an entire large popcorn in fifteen twenty minutes.

15
00:00:46.960 --> 00:00:48.079
<v Speaker 1>I think he was impressed.

16
00:00:48.399 --> 00:00:52.079
<v Speaker 2>No, totally agree. As a man who constantly is pushing

17
00:00:52.159 --> 00:00:54.600
<v Speaker 2>the human body to its limits and testing it, I

18
00:00:54.840 --> 00:00:57.640
<v Speaker 2>think finishing a large popcorn before the movie is quite impressive.

19
00:00:58.000 --> 00:01:01.719
<v Speaker 2>I never finished my popcorn. Usually get a medium because

20
00:01:01.719 --> 00:01:04.680
<v Speaker 2>I'm realistic these days, and I still don't finish the popcorn.

21
00:01:05.040 --> 00:01:07.879
<v Speaker 2>But you kind of get the medium knowing that you

22
00:01:07.959 --> 00:01:11.040
<v Speaker 2>really just want the small. But at least in the medium,

23
00:01:11.159 --> 00:01:14.439
<v Speaker 2>you're gonna get like seventy five percent good popcorn, and

24
00:01:14.480 --> 00:01:17.159
<v Speaker 2>that final twenty five percent is not really edible anyways.

25
00:01:17.200 --> 00:01:19.680
<v Speaker 2>You know, it's just how popcorn bags work. I also

26
00:01:19.680 --> 00:01:23.480
<v Speaker 2>think goo it's an absolute fucking travesty that it is

27
00:01:23.519 --> 00:01:26.959
<v Speaker 2>not the industry standard to layer popcorn butter. When you

28
00:01:27.000 --> 00:01:30.799
<v Speaker 2>are served popcorn. You can ask sounds butter, sure, But

29
00:01:30.840 --> 00:01:33.599
<v Speaker 2>if I'm putting butter on my popcorn, I can't get

30
00:01:33.640 --> 00:01:35.640
<v Speaker 2>all the butter down into the nooks and crannies of

31
00:01:35.640 --> 00:01:37.640
<v Speaker 2>it's a full bag. You know, we've seen the whole

32
00:01:37.680 --> 00:01:40.439
<v Speaker 2>straw method and whatnot. I just think if you're serving

33
00:01:40.439 --> 00:01:43.200
<v Speaker 2>it freshly to me and I ask for butter, fucking

34
00:01:43.280 --> 00:01:44.359
<v Speaker 2>layer the goddamn butter.

35
00:01:44.519 --> 00:01:46.799
<v Speaker 1>Mac always says, I'll have some butter with a side

36
00:01:46.799 --> 00:01:47.480
<v Speaker 1>of popcorn.

37
00:01:47.640 --> 00:01:49.560
<v Speaker 2>I mean, people like movie theater popcorn because they like

38
00:01:49.599 --> 00:01:51.480
<v Speaker 2>the movie theater butter that goes hand at hand.

39
00:01:51.560 --> 00:01:54.519
<v Speaker 1>I have given up popcorn. It's difficult going to the movies,

40
00:01:54.560 --> 00:01:56.400
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, what if I just get some now?

41
00:01:56.680 --> 00:01:58.439
<v Speaker 1>But I know that if I start eating it again,

42
00:01:58.719 --> 00:02:00.879
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna get it every single time. I'm gonna get

43
00:02:00.879 --> 00:02:04.159
<v Speaker 1>a large. I'm gonna refill that large. I would if

44
00:02:04.200 --> 00:02:05.840
<v Speaker 1>they had a trought, I'd ask for a trought.

45
00:02:05.920 --> 00:02:09.039
<v Speaker 2>Really, I'm like fifty to fifty these days. When I

46
00:02:09.520 --> 00:02:11.560
<v Speaker 2>when I get popcorn depends what time of day I'm

47
00:02:11.599 --> 00:02:14.280
<v Speaker 2>seeing the movie. Usually, if we go to the screenings,

48
00:02:14.719 --> 00:02:18.159
<v Speaker 2>I don't get popcorn because I don't know why that's

49
00:02:18.199 --> 00:02:20.199
<v Speaker 2>the time I should get Popcorncuse I'm not spending money

50
00:02:20.199 --> 00:02:20.680
<v Speaker 2>on the ticket.

51
00:02:20.759 --> 00:02:21.520
<v Speaker 1>You're making money.

52
00:02:21.639 --> 00:02:23.599
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, exactly, that's the whole thing. I want to be

53
00:02:23.639 --> 00:02:25.400
<v Speaker 2>in the green now.

54
00:02:25.520 --> 00:02:28.199
<v Speaker 1>When I went to see this movie last night, I

55
00:02:28.240 --> 00:02:31.039
<v Speaker 1>had just eaten a chicken Caesar wrap in my car

56
00:02:31.560 --> 00:02:33.840
<v Speaker 1>and I needed something to wash it down. I needed

57
00:02:34.159 --> 00:02:37.039
<v Speaker 1>a beverage, if you will. Plus it's a seven hour movie,

58
00:02:37.080 --> 00:02:40.000
<v Speaker 1>so I knew i'd be thirsty. So I went to

59
00:02:40.199 --> 00:02:44.759
<v Speaker 1>the concession stand and I got myself a large drink,

60
00:02:44.840 --> 00:02:47.360
<v Speaker 1>being like, okay, it's a long movie. It's only two

61
00:02:47.400 --> 00:02:51.520
<v Speaker 1>dollars more than the small ROI spend money, make money.

62
00:02:51.960 --> 00:02:53.960
<v Speaker 1>I turn around to fill it up, thinking that I

63
00:02:53.960 --> 00:02:56.240
<v Speaker 1>could get some nice diet doctor Pepper, because I saw

64
00:02:56.319 --> 00:03:00.159
<v Speaker 1>doctor Pepper on there. No the only diet option on

65
00:03:00.199 --> 00:03:03.919
<v Speaker 1>there was diet pepsi and diet pepsi is trash?

66
00:03:04.159 --> 00:03:06.639
<v Speaker 2>Was it one of those machines with the bubbles when

67
00:03:06.680 --> 00:03:09.120
<v Speaker 2>you can select? Yeah? So, I mean, I guess you're

68
00:03:09.120 --> 00:03:10.759
<v Speaker 2>taking a chance to because you don't know what they're,

69
00:03:10.879 --> 00:03:13.800
<v Speaker 2>what's in stock and what's not. I can't I don't

70
00:03:13.800 --> 00:03:15.639
<v Speaker 2>want bubble gut while I'm watching a movie. I can't

71
00:03:15.639 --> 00:03:18.080
<v Speaker 2>do soda during a movie. I'm a strictly water during

72
00:03:18.080 --> 00:03:27.479
<v Speaker 2>a movie. Guy one, good three?

73
00:03:27.560 --> 00:03:41.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, just three. King of Queen mill Street Entertainment.

74
00:03:41.479 --> 00:03:43.439
<v Speaker 2>I'm Goo and I'm.

75
00:03:43.360 --> 00:03:45.680
<v Speaker 1>Mac, and we are the Mac and Goo program. Mac

76
00:03:45.759 --> 00:03:48.800
<v Speaker 1>has yet to ask me why I am wearing sunglasses.

77
00:03:49.080 --> 00:03:51.360
<v Speaker 2>No, I think it's I think it's pretty obvious.

78
00:03:51.599 --> 00:03:52.639
<v Speaker 1>Oh why what do you think?

79
00:03:52.759 --> 00:03:55.120
<v Speaker 2>You're wearing a top gun Maverick shirt as well, in

80
00:03:55.159 --> 00:03:57.759
<v Speaker 2>honor of our Lord and savior Thomas Cruz.

81
00:03:57.840 --> 00:04:00.520
<v Speaker 1>Well that's what the movie is. Brace yourself ready for this?

82
00:04:01.000 --> 00:04:03.400
<v Speaker 2>Oh what happened to you? Sty nice?

83
00:04:04.039 --> 00:04:07.719
<v Speaker 1>Do you find the sunglasses more distracting or my zombie

84
00:04:07.759 --> 00:04:09.400
<v Speaker 1>eye more distracting.

85
00:04:10.879 --> 00:04:12.639
<v Speaker 2>Now that you poisoned it out. I get if you

86
00:04:12.639 --> 00:04:14.240
<v Speaker 2>didn't point it out. I want to just stop, maybe

87
00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:16.279
<v Speaker 2>camera quality or something. But now I can.

88
00:04:16.360 --> 00:04:19.319
<v Speaker 1>It's half the size of my other eye.

89
00:04:19.879 --> 00:04:21.160
<v Speaker 2>I didn't notice it last night.

90
00:04:21.240 --> 00:04:24.360
<v Speaker 1>I started to feel it on Wednesday. Yesterday I woke

91
00:04:24.439 --> 00:04:27.480
<v Speaker 1>up and it was swollen shut. I did enough hot

92
00:04:27.519 --> 00:04:30.160
<v Speaker 1>water compressions on it to really ease it up by

93
00:04:30.279 --> 00:04:32.199
<v Speaker 1>last night, and this morning it's even worse.

94
00:04:32.399 --> 00:04:33.680
<v Speaker 2>Good have you honest? I don't really know what a

95
00:04:33.720 --> 00:04:34.240
<v Speaker 2>sty is.

96
00:04:34.560 --> 00:04:41.639
<v Speaker 1>It's not conjuncti vitis. I haven't had any discharge, no pus, no, no,

97
00:04:42.160 --> 00:04:43.199
<v Speaker 1>it just hurts a lot.

98
00:04:43.480 --> 00:04:46.279
<v Speaker 2>Do all eye things rhyme with eye? Is that why

99
00:04:46.279 --> 00:04:46.839
<v Speaker 2>it's called.

100
00:04:46.759 --> 00:04:49.199
<v Speaker 1>That's why it's called a sty. So the only reason

101
00:04:49.279 --> 00:04:51.759
<v Speaker 1>why I think these sunglasses are distracting, and this is

102
00:04:51.879 --> 00:04:55.600
<v Speaker 1>great podcasting, great visual addition to the podcast. I also,

103
00:04:55.680 --> 00:04:57.439
<v Speaker 1>I hate looking at myself right now with the stye,

104
00:04:57.480 --> 00:04:59.199
<v Speaker 1>So I'm gonna put these back on. All right, Sure,

105
00:04:59.279 --> 00:05:01.920
<v Speaker 1>I have this spaghett in my eye from the ring light.

106
00:05:03.959 --> 00:05:05.759
<v Speaker 1>There is no winning in this situation.

107
00:05:06.199 --> 00:05:08.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well, I mean you just gonna fight through. That's

108
00:05:08.319 --> 00:05:11.319
<v Speaker 2>what you know. Our Lonsavid Tom Cruise really appreciate you

109
00:05:11.360 --> 00:05:12.120
<v Speaker 2>for fighting through.

110
00:05:12.279 --> 00:05:14.639
<v Speaker 1>What if I lean my head back like Paul Pierce

111
00:05:14.680 --> 00:05:16.680
<v Speaker 1>when he's on Fox Sports one when he.

112
00:05:16.680 --> 00:05:20.040
<v Speaker 2>Talks always looking at the ceiling.

113
00:05:20.680 --> 00:05:24.839
<v Speaker 1>Uh where his inspiration comes from?

114
00:05:24.959 --> 00:05:28.120
<v Speaker 2>What you say? We are discussing the latest in the

115
00:05:28.199 --> 00:05:32.800
<v Speaker 2>Mission Impossible series, Mission Impossible, the Final Reckoning.

116
00:05:32.879 --> 00:05:34.040
<v Speaker 1>You didn't say greatest.

117
00:05:34.319 --> 00:05:36.759
<v Speaker 2>I purposefully did not say greatest.

118
00:05:36.879 --> 00:05:39.959
<v Speaker 1>You know what it is, the latest and eightest.

119
00:05:41.160 --> 00:05:45.839
<v Speaker 2>I'm also curious if it really is a final part

120
00:05:45.879 --> 00:05:47.920
<v Speaker 2>of this series. I sort of hope so at this

121
00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:50.160
<v Speaker 2>point eight Movies is playing with all the.

122
00:05:50.160 --> 00:05:53.879
<v Speaker 1>Pomp and circumstance and the and the storytelling that was

123
00:05:53.920 --> 00:05:56.399
<v Speaker 1>in this one, I think we have to move.

124
00:05:56.199 --> 00:06:01.720
<v Speaker 2>On once again, the eighth entry into the Mission Impossible series. Really,

125
00:06:02.079 --> 00:06:05.000
<v Speaker 2>this is the second part of a two parter Dead

126
00:06:05.040 --> 00:06:06.959
<v Speaker 2>Reckoning that's supposed to be Dead Reckoning Part two. They

127
00:06:07.040 --> 00:06:07.560
<v Speaker 2>changed it to five.

128
00:06:07.600 --> 00:06:08.680
<v Speaker 1>Okay, so that is true.

129
00:06:09.439 --> 00:06:12.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, just sort of distance itself from Dead Reckoning, which

130
00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:14.639
<v Speaker 2>didn't make a ton of money because it got Barbenheimern

131
00:06:14.680 --> 00:06:18.639
<v Speaker 2>and so it pushed off from there. GOO reportedly this

132
00:06:18.680 --> 00:06:22.040
<v Speaker 2>movie had a four hundred million dollar punchit. That is

133
00:06:22.279 --> 00:06:23.600
<v Speaker 2>a lot of money.

134
00:06:23.720 --> 00:06:26.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I think if you do bring this franchise back

135
00:06:26.800 --> 00:06:28.839
<v Speaker 1>and hopefully they take some time off of it and

136
00:06:28.920 --> 00:06:32.720
<v Speaker 1>maybe you replace the pieces around it. Even if maybe

137
00:06:32.720 --> 00:06:35.279
<v Speaker 1>you keep Cruise in there as someone that isn't you know,

138
00:06:35.360 --> 00:06:39.240
<v Speaker 1>that isn't God. Maybe you cut the budget in half

139
00:06:39.240 --> 00:06:41.839
<v Speaker 1>and you go a little smaller scale back to basics.

140
00:06:41.959 --> 00:06:46.439
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, yeah, totally agree. However, this movie is projected

141
00:06:46.439 --> 00:06:48.120
<v Speaker 2>to make between one hundred and twenty five and one

142
00:06:48.199 --> 00:06:50.879
<v Speaker 2>hundred and fifty million domestically this weekend. Are you sure?

143
00:06:51.360 --> 00:06:53.519
<v Speaker 1>I was looking at the box Office Mojo and it

144
00:06:53.600 --> 00:06:54.920
<v Speaker 1>was saying seventy to eighty.

145
00:06:55.079 --> 00:06:59.120
<v Speaker 2>Oh, that would be well below it's expected at least

146
00:06:59.120 --> 00:07:00.000
<v Speaker 2>from like two or three days.

147
00:07:00.040 --> 00:07:01.399
<v Speaker 1>Is this is about to get stitched?

148
00:07:01.639 --> 00:07:05.720
<v Speaker 2>Which will be well, now you're throwing that number at

149
00:07:05.759 --> 00:07:08.240
<v Speaker 2>means so Dead Reckoning only made one hundred and seventy

150
00:07:08.279 --> 00:07:11.680
<v Speaker 2>two domestically, massive disappointment in that respect. It was still

151
00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:14.040
<v Speaker 2>reviewed really well. People just didn't see it as much

152
00:07:14.040 --> 00:07:17.360
<v Speaker 2>as they thought because of Barbie and Opperenheimer. This movie

153
00:07:17.399 --> 00:07:19.480
<v Speaker 2>was projected to make between one twenty five and more fifty.

154
00:07:19.480 --> 00:07:21.639
<v Speaker 2>Maybe Stitch is cutting.

155
00:07:20.959 --> 00:07:24.279
<v Speaker 1>Into that different audience, but still, but it's gonna.

156
00:07:24.040 --> 00:07:26.560
<v Speaker 2>Have to make a lot of money to get that

157
00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:29.639
<v Speaker 2>budget and advertising budget back right. We're talking five hundred

158
00:07:29.639 --> 00:07:31.160
<v Speaker 2>six hundred million. This is going to have to get

159
00:07:31.240 --> 00:07:34.439
<v Speaker 2>to I think the last movie got to it might

160
00:07:34.439 --> 00:07:35.800
<v Speaker 2>have got to five hundred.

161
00:07:35.839 --> 00:07:37.720
<v Speaker 1>But I think it was a round five, either a

162
00:07:37.759 --> 00:07:39.079
<v Speaker 1>tick below or a tick b of.

163
00:07:39.680 --> 00:07:42.439
<v Speaker 2>But that last movie's budget was like two.

164
00:07:42.680 --> 00:07:44.480
<v Speaker 1>No, I think it was also close to four. It

165
00:07:44.519 --> 00:07:44.920
<v Speaker 1>was a lot.

166
00:07:45.079 --> 00:07:48.279
<v Speaker 2>No, it was under three. I looked it up. Yeah,

167
00:07:48.319 --> 00:07:49.199
<v Speaker 2>it was under three.

168
00:07:49.360 --> 00:07:49.680
<v Speaker 1>Okay.

169
00:07:50.279 --> 00:07:52.519
<v Speaker 2>But point being this is this was the second part

170
00:07:52.560 --> 00:07:54.560
<v Speaker 2>to that. So there's sort of one and the same.

171
00:07:55.439 --> 00:07:57.680
<v Speaker 2>We are at a point now basically starting with Mission

172
00:07:57.720 --> 00:08:01.240
<v Speaker 2>Possible three. More so with four, they started carrying over

173
00:08:01.279 --> 00:08:04.360
<v Speaker 2>more characters and more plot points. There's been somewhat of

174
00:08:04.399 --> 00:08:06.600
<v Speaker 2>an overarching theme through these last four or.

175
00:08:06.560 --> 00:08:09.839
<v Speaker 1>Five, right, And you can tell from the first half

176
00:08:09.879 --> 00:08:12.120
<v Speaker 1>an hour of this one because even before they show

177
00:08:12.160 --> 00:08:15.079
<v Speaker 1>the title card, there is roughly a half an hour

178
00:08:15.240 --> 00:08:18.560
<v Speaker 1>of I won't even call it story, it's just things

179
00:08:18.560 --> 00:08:23.279
<v Speaker 1>that are happening. They start hitting the ground running, which

180
00:08:23.279 --> 00:08:25.240
<v Speaker 1>makes sense in a Tom Cruise movie. The man loves

181
00:08:25.279 --> 00:08:27.839
<v Speaker 1>to run. How fast do you think he runs twenty

182
00:08:27.839 --> 00:08:33.519
<v Speaker 1>eight miles an hour? Tom take the car. No, but

183
00:08:33.679 --> 00:08:38.039
<v Speaker 1>this movie starts with like almost no storytelling. It's just

184
00:08:38.159 --> 00:08:41.320
<v Speaker 1>it picks up two months after what happened in the

185
00:08:41.399 --> 00:08:44.440
<v Speaker 1>last movie, and it's just right into a scene.

186
00:08:44.519 --> 00:08:47.440
<v Speaker 2>So part of the problem is by renaming the movie

187
00:08:47.639 --> 00:08:51.799
<v Speaker 2>and separating themselves from Dead Recording Part one and this

188
00:08:51.919 --> 00:08:54.519
<v Speaker 2>no longer being Deadrecorting Part two being the Final Reckoning,

189
00:08:55.039 --> 00:08:57.759
<v Speaker 2>they had to catch some people up, you know, because

190
00:08:57.759 --> 00:08:59.679
<v Speaker 2>this is a continuation of that story. There was a

191
00:08:59.679 --> 00:09:02.440
<v Speaker 2>cliff at the end of that movie to be continued,

192
00:09:02.720 --> 00:09:05.000
<v Speaker 2>and so part of this movie's problem at the beginning

193
00:09:05.720 --> 00:09:08.320
<v Speaker 2>was catching people up on the story from the last movie.

194
00:09:08.399 --> 00:09:10.440
<v Speaker 1>Also, I think an issue with this movie is that

195
00:09:10.960 --> 00:09:13.559
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if they felt like people hadn't seen

196
00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:17.480
<v Speaker 1>the prior movies, so they had to do constant flashbacks

197
00:09:17.600 --> 00:09:21.919
<v Speaker 1>and reminders of who people were throughout the entire movie.

198
00:09:22.159 --> 00:09:25.679
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but also thematically, a lot of what's going on

199
00:09:25.759 --> 00:09:29.720
<v Speaker 2>in decision making and whatnot is like talking about Ethan

200
00:09:29.799 --> 00:09:31.120
<v Speaker 2>Hunt's pass and everything.

201
00:09:30.879 --> 00:09:32.519
<v Speaker 1>This making or flipping a coin.

202
00:09:34.639 --> 00:09:37.679
<v Speaker 2>So I didn't really penalize that for that, especially knowing

203
00:09:38.080 --> 00:09:40.600
<v Speaker 2>this should be the final Tom Cruise entry, Like I'm

204
00:09:40.639 --> 00:09:43.080
<v Speaker 2>okay with that sort of shit, Like eight movies in

205
00:09:43.200 --> 00:09:45.559
<v Speaker 2>like what we can't pretend we're not gonna like be

206
00:09:46.080 --> 00:09:48.200
<v Speaker 2>you know, look back on things with rose colored glasses.

207
00:09:48.240 --> 00:09:49.720
<v Speaker 2>So I understand why the movie did that.

208
00:09:49.840 --> 00:09:51.759
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to spoil anything early, but all the

209
00:09:51.799 --> 00:09:54.360
<v Speaker 1>people that he had wronged in the past saying thank

210
00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:57.720
<v Speaker 1>you for doing that. You actually fixed my life by

211
00:09:57.759 --> 00:10:02.000
<v Speaker 1>doing that. That every single one of those.

212
00:10:02.480 --> 00:10:05.960
<v Speaker 2>This is a PG thirteen, which maybe is I like

213
00:10:06.159 --> 00:10:07.840
<v Speaker 2>these movies is are. I don't know if it would

214
00:10:07.919 --> 00:10:10.240
<v Speaker 2>change things, but it is interesting that they keep on PG.

215
00:10:10.360 --> 00:10:13.159
<v Speaker 1>I think it changed one thing. There was one scene

216
00:10:13.720 --> 00:10:17.000
<v Speaker 1>where I think they shot something that they would have

217
00:10:17.120 --> 00:10:21.960
<v Speaker 1>kept if it was are but because it was captured. Yes,

218
00:10:22.080 --> 00:10:25.399
<v Speaker 1>they kept it on Haley Atwell's face as opposed to

219
00:10:25.440 --> 00:10:27.039
<v Speaker 1>showing Tom cruise with a hammer.

220
00:10:27.480 --> 00:10:29.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. And I would have been intrigued as to what

221
00:10:29.600 --> 00:10:30.399
<v Speaker 2>that scene would have looked like.

222
00:10:30.519 --> 00:10:36.120
<v Speaker 1>Because you don't like her reaction to it. Oh May,

223
00:10:36.759 --> 00:10:39.080
<v Speaker 1>she's doing British reactions.

224
00:10:38.399 --> 00:10:45.639
<v Speaker 2>To melon uh go. PG thirteen Action adventure, thriller, subgenres, action, epic, adventure,

225
00:10:45.679 --> 00:10:48.960
<v Speaker 2>epic and spy. We have sort of gotten away from

226
00:10:48.960 --> 00:10:50.960
<v Speaker 2>the spy espionage stuff these lasts.

227
00:10:50.960 --> 00:10:53.159
<v Speaker 1>That's my issue with it. That's my biggest.

228
00:10:53.559 --> 00:10:59.320
<v Speaker 2>It's not as spy and espionage e as the prior ones,

229
00:10:59.360 --> 00:11:02.600
<v Speaker 2>the prior to three to these ones, I mean, the

230
00:11:02.679 --> 00:11:05.240
<v Speaker 2>essence of the series is the espionage and spy stuff,

231
00:11:05.440 --> 00:11:07.679
<v Speaker 2>and these last two we've certainly got away from that

232
00:11:07.759 --> 00:11:11.759
<v Speaker 2>because because it's become an Ethan Hunt story and now

233
00:11:11.759 --> 00:11:14.679
<v Speaker 2>it's things centering around Ethan Hunt, which they were anyways,

234
00:11:15.039 --> 00:11:18.039
<v Speaker 2>but there was still sweet spy and espionage stuff leading

235
00:11:18.120 --> 00:11:19.080
<v Speaker 2>up until these last two.

236
00:11:19.279 --> 00:11:22.480
<v Speaker 1>I think it's a very, very similar to what they

237
00:11:22.519 --> 00:11:25.399
<v Speaker 1>did with John McClain and Diehard, where in the first

238
00:11:25.440 --> 00:11:28.519
<v Speaker 1>movie he's just a small time cop and he's you know,

239
00:11:29.000 --> 00:11:32.399
<v Speaker 1>using his his cunning and his wit to take down

240
00:11:32.440 --> 00:11:34.840
<v Speaker 1>these terrorists, but then by the end of that series,

241
00:11:34.879 --> 00:11:37.799
<v Speaker 1>he is a superhero. By the end of this series,

242
00:11:37.840 --> 00:11:40.720
<v Speaker 1>by the end of these eight movies, Tom Cruise, Ethan

243
00:11:40.840 --> 00:11:41.639
<v Speaker 1>Hunt is God.

244
00:11:41.879 --> 00:11:44.960
<v Speaker 2>I mean, that's fair, that's apt. But also, to be fair,

245
00:11:45.320 --> 00:11:47.639
<v Speaker 2>these movies in the series is way better than the time.

246
00:11:47.639 --> 00:11:49.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm not arguing that they are better. I'm saying the

247
00:11:49.840 --> 00:11:53.720
<v Speaker 1>way that the character has evolved through these stories, he

248
00:11:53.840 --> 00:11:56.200
<v Speaker 1>is now God and people speak to him like he

249
00:11:56.320 --> 00:11:56.960
<v Speaker 1>is God.

250
00:11:57.080 --> 00:11:58.720
<v Speaker 2>This movie has a run time of one hundred and

251
00:11:58.799 --> 00:12:03.759
<v Speaker 2>sixty nine minutes encroaches upawn three hours long. To its credit,

252
00:12:04.320 --> 00:12:07.080
<v Speaker 2>it doesn't feel like that. I thought it was gonna

253
00:12:07.080 --> 00:12:09.000
<v Speaker 2>feel like it was getting the three hours, but I

254
00:12:09.000 --> 00:12:11.840
<v Speaker 2>didn't check my phone once. I thought, once we were

255
00:12:11.840 --> 00:12:13.840
<v Speaker 2>in it and it was going, it was a little

256
00:12:13.879 --> 00:12:15.440
<v Speaker 2>clucky get the start, like you said, but once where

257
00:12:15.480 --> 00:12:18.440
<v Speaker 2>you're in it, I thought it was oddly a breeze.

258
00:12:18.519 --> 00:12:21.200
<v Speaker 1>I thought the entire thing was really long. There's two

259
00:12:21.320 --> 00:12:24.360
<v Speaker 1>great action pieces in here. One of the action pieces

260
00:12:24.399 --> 00:12:28.399
<v Speaker 1>is spliced with another action piece, but I really enjoyed those.

261
00:12:29.279 --> 00:12:32.480
<v Speaker 1>Every piece of the build up to it I thought

262
00:12:32.519 --> 00:12:35.240
<v Speaker 1>was entirely clunky and overly serious.

263
00:12:35.480 --> 00:12:37.440
<v Speaker 2>I mean, we'll talk about people's lives here, goo.

264
00:12:37.480 --> 00:12:40.639
<v Speaker 1>I'm aware, but in the past they at least had

265
00:12:40.679 --> 00:12:43.039
<v Speaker 1>some like fun banter going back and forth, or there

266
00:12:43.120 --> 00:12:45.440
<v Speaker 1>was at least like a wink and a nod or

267
00:12:46.000 --> 00:12:47.279
<v Speaker 1>a little cheeky if you will.

268
00:12:47.360 --> 00:12:48.639
<v Speaker 2>Well, it's the end. We'll talking about the end of

269
00:12:48.639 --> 00:12:50.879
<v Speaker 2>the world, talk about armageddon.

270
00:12:50.720 --> 00:12:53.440
<v Speaker 1>Right, And I'm not a huge fan of like world

271
00:12:53.559 --> 00:12:57.000
<v Speaker 1>ending things and us relying on one man to save us.

272
00:12:57.200 --> 00:13:02.159
<v Speaker 2>That's the only thing he could do in the eighth movie. No,

273
00:13:02.559 --> 00:13:06.159
<v Speaker 2>speaking of all eight movies on Roddy T's this says

274
00:13:06.200 --> 00:13:09.519
<v Speaker 2>eighty percent from the critics, ninety three percent from the audience.

275
00:13:10.080 --> 00:13:14.399
<v Speaker 2>That is the lowest critics score since Mission Impossible three. However,

276
00:13:14.480 --> 00:13:16.600
<v Speaker 2>still a little bit above that, and we have a

277
00:13:16.639 --> 00:13:19.679
<v Speaker 2>really interesting thing going on here with these movies. On Metacritic,

278
00:13:19.960 --> 00:13:22.600
<v Speaker 2>a sixty eight, again the lowest critics score since Mission

279
00:13:22.639 --> 00:13:26.799
<v Speaker 2>Impossible three. So the first Mission Impossible received a fifty nine,

280
00:13:27.039 --> 00:13:29.240
<v Speaker 2>the second of fifty nine. This is critics scores here.

281
00:13:29.720 --> 00:13:34.080
<v Speaker 2>The first Mission Impossible became like instantly underrated. Critics apparently

282
00:13:34.159 --> 00:13:35.720
<v Speaker 2>just didn't get it. They didn't care for it. That

283
00:13:35.799 --> 00:13:39.080
<v Speaker 2>movie's really good and sort of kicked off a lot

284
00:13:39.080 --> 00:13:42.159
<v Speaker 2>of copycats in this genre. The second one is not great.

285
00:13:42.200 --> 00:13:45.320
<v Speaker 2>I understand the fifty nine. It's not rewatchable either. The

286
00:13:45.320 --> 00:13:48.559
<v Speaker 2>third one a sixty six. I do feel like this

287
00:13:48.639 --> 00:13:50.960
<v Speaker 2>movie is as much in the same realm as that one.

288
00:13:51.159 --> 00:13:54.519
<v Speaker 2>That movie has the great Philip Seymour Hoffman awesome performance.

289
00:13:54.759 --> 00:13:58.799
<v Speaker 2>It also introduces Michelle Monahan as his wife Julia and

290
00:13:58.960 --> 00:14:03.120
<v Speaker 2>Simon Pegg as Benji, so it starts picking up on

291
00:14:03.320 --> 00:14:06.320
<v Speaker 2>reoccurring characters and themes. I think it all gets kicked

292
00:14:06.360 --> 00:14:08.960
<v Speaker 2>up A notching Ghost Protocol that was twenty eleven. That

293
00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:11.919
<v Speaker 2>gets a seventy three on Metacritic, Brad Bird directing, and

294
00:14:12.000 --> 00:14:14.240
<v Speaker 2>to me, this is where they start, Like I Ghost

295
00:14:14.279 --> 00:14:16.799
<v Speaker 2>Protocol and Roague Nation, back to back movies, the fourth

296
00:14:16.840 --> 00:14:18.879
<v Speaker 2>and fifth movies. I think those are the two best

297
00:14:18.879 --> 00:14:21.919
<v Speaker 2>movies in the series. Those capture. What I think you're

298
00:14:21.960 --> 00:14:25.559
<v Speaker 2>talking about is that tongue in cheek. You know, we're

299
00:14:25.600 --> 00:14:26.399
<v Speaker 2>having a little fun.

300
00:14:26.440 --> 00:14:29.039
<v Speaker 1>They're also doing movies.

301
00:14:29.399 --> 00:14:32.440
<v Speaker 2>Yes, yeah, we're still doing the spy espionage shit. A

302
00:14:32.440 --> 00:14:35.159
<v Speaker 2>lot of people say Fallout twenty eighteen is the best

303
00:14:35.159 --> 00:14:38.679
<v Speaker 2>mission impossible movie. It might be like the most action

304
00:14:38.919 --> 00:14:43.080
<v Speaker 2>ful and like technically sound as far as movie making goes.

305
00:14:43.320 --> 00:14:45.879
<v Speaker 2>It's not nearly my favorite, though, I'm okay putting it

306
00:14:45.879 --> 00:14:48.320
<v Speaker 2>in the tier with Ghost Protocol and Road Nation. And

307
00:14:48.320 --> 00:14:50.480
<v Speaker 2>then we have Dead Reckoning from two years ago that

308
00:14:50.519 --> 00:14:52.440
<v Speaker 2>got an eighty one. Fall It got an eighty seven,

309
00:14:52.480 --> 00:14:55.159
<v Speaker 2>by the way Metacritics, so critics fucking love that. Critics.

310
00:14:55.159 --> 00:14:56.799
<v Speaker 2>I think we're late to this series and they were

311
00:14:56.799 --> 00:14:58.600
<v Speaker 2>trying to make up for it, as we've seen so

312
00:14:58.600 --> 00:15:01.159
<v Speaker 2>many times in the past. So to me, four, five,

313
00:15:01.159 --> 00:15:03.200
<v Speaker 2>and six are like head and shoulders above the rest,

314
00:15:03.559 --> 00:15:07.159
<v Speaker 2>Ghost Protocol, Rogue Nation of Fallout, Dead Reckoning. Honestly, might

315
00:15:07.159 --> 00:15:09.799
<v Speaker 2>be in a tier in itself. It's better than this movie,

316
00:15:10.399 --> 00:15:11.960
<v Speaker 2>but it's not nearly as good as the three I

317
00:15:12.120 --> 00:15:14.960
<v Speaker 2>just mentioned. And then clearly Mission Impossible two is at

318
00:15:14.960 --> 00:15:16.360
<v Speaker 2>the bottom of the barrel. So you might have the

319
00:15:16.399 --> 00:15:19.519
<v Speaker 2>original Mission Impossible three and this movie all on at

320
00:15:19.519 --> 00:15:22.720
<v Speaker 2>one tier, then Dead Reckoning and then Ghost Protocol, Rogue

321
00:15:22.799 --> 00:15:26.159
<v Speaker 2>Nation of Fallout in its own tier. It's an odd

322
00:15:26.200 --> 00:15:26.840
<v Speaker 2>tier system.

323
00:15:26.919 --> 00:15:28.799
<v Speaker 1>Not to tip my hot dog hand, I would have

324
00:15:28.879 --> 00:15:30.960
<v Speaker 1>this as one of the lower Mission Impossibles.

325
00:15:31.120 --> 00:15:34.799
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean, it's definitely in the bottom four, that's

326
00:15:34.840 --> 00:15:35.240
<v Speaker 2>for sure.

327
00:15:35.320 --> 00:15:37.320
<v Speaker 1>If we were tiering, it would be on the bottom

328
00:15:37.320 --> 00:15:38.039
<v Speaker 1>tier for me.

329
00:15:38.759 --> 00:15:42.399
<v Speaker 2>But in the Mission Impossible two tier, yeah, I don't.

330
00:15:42.519 --> 00:15:43.559
<v Speaker 1>I didn't care for this.

331
00:15:44.279 --> 00:15:47.519
<v Speaker 2>Once again, Brad Bird directed Ghost Protocol, which started a

332
00:15:47.519 --> 00:15:50.559
<v Speaker 2>lot of what these last four movies have picked up on,

333
00:15:51.399 --> 00:15:54.200
<v Speaker 2>or three movies I shop for. I've getting confused. Now.

334
00:15:55.000 --> 00:15:58.679
<v Speaker 2>McQuary has been directing this series since Rogue Nation twenty fifteen,

335
00:15:58.919 --> 00:16:01.200
<v Speaker 2>and it's really where he's made his mark and really

336
00:16:01.240 --> 00:16:04.720
<v Speaker 2>where he's become, you know, not quite an A list director,

337
00:16:04.759 --> 00:16:06.519
<v Speaker 2>but I think he's up there and talking about some

338
00:16:06.559 --> 00:16:09.440
<v Speaker 2>of the greats of today. Jeremy Renners' character is also

339
00:16:10.000 --> 00:16:14.200
<v Speaker 2>introducing ghost Protocol, and it seemed like they were planning

340
00:16:14.240 --> 00:16:16.440
<v Speaker 2>to hand off the series to his character. He was

341
00:16:16.480 --> 00:16:21.240
<v Speaker 2>basically an Ethan hunt Light and then Tom Cruise is Agels,

342
00:16:21.279 --> 00:16:24.399
<v Speaker 2>so they kept Tom Cruise around good. This movie is

343
00:16:24.440 --> 00:16:27.799
<v Speaker 2>written by Eric Jendronsen and Christopher mcquery. The only thing

344
00:16:27.799 --> 00:16:31.919
<v Speaker 2>you would know Jendronsen from Jendersen is the previous Mission Impossible,

345
00:16:32.039 --> 00:16:34.759
<v Speaker 2>the one from two years ago. McQuary goes all the

346
00:16:34.799 --> 00:16:37.360
<v Speaker 2>way back to the usual suspects. He's a writer there,

347
00:16:37.519 --> 00:16:40.440
<v Speaker 2>The Way of the Gun, Valkyrie, Jack Reacher, Edge of Tomorrow.

348
00:16:40.639 --> 00:16:42.480
<v Speaker 2>There's a theme amongst these movies, and the theme is

349
00:16:42.519 --> 00:16:45.720
<v Speaker 2>Tom Cruise, the Mummy. He wrote Top Gun, Maverick, and

350
00:16:45.799 --> 00:16:48.919
<v Speaker 2>he wrote all of these Mission Impossible movies since Rogue Nation.

351
00:16:49.159 --> 00:16:51.720
<v Speaker 2>So he started as a writer, became a director, but

352
00:16:51.799 --> 00:16:55.879
<v Speaker 2>his only directed Tom Cruise things outside of the Way

353
00:16:55.919 --> 00:16:59.240
<v Speaker 2>of the Gun. So it's a very very interesting situation.

354
00:17:00.080 --> 00:17:04.640
<v Speaker 2>KU upcoming writing credit for Christopher McQuary. I thought this

355
00:17:04.799 --> 00:17:07.920
<v Speaker 2>was interesting to note. He is the writer on the

356
00:17:08.039 --> 00:17:12.039
<v Speaker 2>untitled Tom Cruise SpaceX project being directed by Doug Lyman.

357
00:17:12.640 --> 00:17:15.880
<v Speaker 2>Synopsis for this scu Tom Cruise and Doug Lymon travel

358
00:17:15.960 --> 00:17:18.440
<v Speaker 2>far beyond Earth to film the first ever Hollywood motion

359
00:17:18.519 --> 00:17:21.759
<v Speaker 2>picture in outer space. I'm gonna need to see what

360
00:17:21.799 --> 00:17:25.079
<v Speaker 2>that's all about. That is ambitious, to say the least, and.

361
00:17:25.039 --> 00:17:27.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure most of the dialogue is other characters stroking

362
00:17:27.920 --> 00:17:32.839
<v Speaker 1>Tom Cruise's ego.

363
00:17:32.839 --> 00:17:35.599
<v Speaker 2>Of course, this whole film series is based on the

364
00:17:35.599 --> 00:17:38.480
<v Speaker 2>television series by Bruce Geller that was from nineteen sixty

365
00:17:38.480 --> 00:17:42.400
<v Speaker 2>six to nineteen seventy three, again directed by mcquery. He's

366
00:17:42.440 --> 00:17:46.319
<v Speaker 2>also got two movies upcoming that he's directing, Broadswording Gauntlet.

367
00:17:46.519 --> 00:17:49.119
<v Speaker 2>One of them scar stars Tom Cruise and Scar Joe,

368
00:17:49.359 --> 00:17:51.680
<v Speaker 2>so that might be pretty good. I forget what the

369
00:17:51.720 --> 00:17:55.200
<v Speaker 2>other one is about. Synopsis GW of this movie, Ethan

370
00:17:55.319 --> 00:17:57.920
<v Speaker 2>Hunt and the IMF team race against time to find

371
00:17:57.920 --> 00:18:02.680
<v Speaker 2>the Entity, a rogue artificial intelligence that can destroy mankind.

372
00:18:03.240 --> 00:18:06.400
<v Speaker 2>This is the same story, same theme that we picked

373
00:18:06.480 --> 00:18:09.519
<v Speaker 2>up on in the prior movie, and I think that's

374
00:18:09.559 --> 00:18:13.519
<v Speaker 2>what makes these last two movies a step below for

375
00:18:13.599 --> 00:18:17.000
<v Speaker 2>sure the previous three. Is we're dealing with this like

376
00:18:17.119 --> 00:18:21.119
<v Speaker 2>AI cyber threat, which just nearly isn't as interesting as

377
00:18:21.160 --> 00:18:24.119
<v Speaker 2>like a human in human issues. So that's definitely a

378
00:18:24.200 --> 00:18:27.079
<v Speaker 2>knock up against him. Good. This movie stars Tom Cruise,

379
00:18:27.119 --> 00:18:29.960
<v Speaker 2>of course, as Ethan Hunt Haley atwell as Grace she

380
00:18:30.039 --> 00:18:32.400
<v Speaker 2>debuted in the last one. Ving Raims is Luther Stickele,

381
00:18:32.680 --> 00:18:34.359
<v Speaker 2>who I think is the only other actor that's been

382
00:18:34.359 --> 00:18:37.319
<v Speaker 2>in all eight of these. Simon peg has Benji done.

383
00:18:37.319 --> 00:18:40.200
<v Speaker 2>Asi Morales is Gabriel. We saw him in the last one.

384
00:18:40.319 --> 00:18:43.000
<v Speaker 2>PM Clementiefe as Paris. We saw her in the last one.

385
00:18:43.119 --> 00:18:44.599
<v Speaker 2>I thought she was much better in this one.

386
00:18:44.680 --> 00:18:46.359
<v Speaker 1>Oh she did all of her own stunts too, I

387
00:18:46.400 --> 00:18:47.920
<v Speaker 1>think did she?

388
00:18:47.519 --> 00:18:51.160
<v Speaker 2>She was actually really great in this. Henry Zernie is Kittrich.

389
00:18:51.200 --> 00:18:53.960
<v Speaker 2>We've seen him in a few of these. Angela Bassett

390
00:18:53.960 --> 00:18:56.000
<v Speaker 2>as President eric A Sloan, We've seen her in a few.

391
00:18:56.200 --> 00:18:59.039
<v Speaker 2>Shay Wigham as Briggs, we've seen him. We see Holt

392
00:18:59.119 --> 00:19:02.759
<v Speaker 2>mclanny as Serling. He's like one of the generals or

393
00:19:02.799 --> 00:19:06.240
<v Speaker 2>President's right hand man. Jane mctears Walters same, Nick Offerman

394
00:19:06.319 --> 00:19:09.519
<v Speaker 2>General Sidney Hannah Wattingham as Admiral Neely. She plays with

395
00:19:09.680 --> 00:19:12.160
<v Speaker 2>American accents. Yeah, you like that pretty good.

396
00:19:12.200 --> 00:19:15.079
<v Speaker 1>Actually, I'm always I think the Brits are better at

397
00:19:15.079 --> 00:19:18.000
<v Speaker 1>doing the American accents. Then we all at dealing the

398
00:19:18.039 --> 00:19:19.000
<v Speaker 1>British wounds.

399
00:19:19.279 --> 00:19:21.680
<v Speaker 2>Totally agree. It does seem, however, like they do end

400
00:19:21.759 --> 00:19:24.759
<v Speaker 2>up doing more like California Valley girl type accents, but

401
00:19:24.880 --> 00:19:25.880
<v Speaker 2>they're better than we are.

402
00:19:25.880 --> 00:19:28.559
<v Speaker 1>See almost like she spoke out of the bottom of

403
00:19:28.599 --> 00:19:31.119
<v Speaker 1>her jaw to like do her lines. Can you do

404
00:19:31.160 --> 00:19:33.079
<v Speaker 1>a British accent? Where do you go? Do you go

405
00:19:33.119 --> 00:19:38.400
<v Speaker 1>to Liverpool? Pep Cherryow, Dan Crappetts, good stuff.

406
00:19:38.680 --> 00:19:42.680
<v Speaker 2>I just yell, I just stack it up at octab Yeah.

407
00:19:43.079 --> 00:19:46.799
<v Speaker 2>Uh Tremble Tillman as Captain bloodsoe hell yeah right, yeah,

408
00:19:46.839 --> 00:19:50.200
<v Speaker 2>we'll get to him in a minute. Greg Tarzan Davis

409
00:19:50.200 --> 00:19:52.359
<v Speaker 2>incredible name is Degas de Goas.

410
00:19:52.519 --> 00:19:53.559
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know you could do that.

411
00:19:54.000 --> 00:19:58.079
<v Speaker 2>He's he Brigs, his right hand man, eventually is on

412
00:19:58.160 --> 00:20:01.559
<v Speaker 2>Ethan's team, and then Goo reprising his role for the

413
00:20:01.559 --> 00:20:03.839
<v Speaker 2>first movie. I love this, Ralph Saxony.

414
00:20:03.880 --> 00:20:06.480
<v Speaker 1>I hated it. I hated it so much. I hated

415
00:20:06.519 --> 00:20:09.400
<v Speaker 1>it so much. It was great because it was another

416
00:20:09.519 --> 00:20:10.839
<v Speaker 1>one of thank you.

417
00:20:12.039 --> 00:20:14.799
<v Speaker 2>I loved it. Shut up, I loved it.

418
00:20:15.359 --> 00:20:17.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm dead serious right now. I didn't know that you

419
00:20:18.000 --> 00:20:19.799
<v Speaker 1>could name someone Tarzan.

420
00:20:21.079 --> 00:20:24.279
<v Speaker 2>Kind of you'll be going to the courthouse change raftis middle.

421
00:20:24.079 --> 00:20:34.279
<v Speaker 1>Name Amazing Mac. Yeah, before we get into any spoilers,

422
00:20:34.319 --> 00:20:36.400
<v Speaker 1>before we get into the gauntlet, I do want to

423
00:20:36.440 --> 00:20:39.680
<v Speaker 1>say that, like, there are several points in this movie

424
00:20:39.880 --> 00:20:44.319
<v Speaker 1>that reminded me of the audio commentary of Armageddon where

425
00:20:45.000 --> 00:20:50.160
<v Speaker 1>Ben Affleck asks why would you teach drillers how to

426
00:20:50.200 --> 00:20:54.279
<v Speaker 1>be astronauts as opposed to astronauts how to drill? Because

427
00:20:54.279 --> 00:20:57.480
<v Speaker 1>you have Tom Cruise doing these odd jobs where he's

428
00:20:57.519 --> 00:21:00.759
<v Speaker 1>working with experts in the field, I feel like they

429
00:21:00.759 --> 00:21:03.960
<v Speaker 1>could have gotten it done way way quicker and safer.

430
00:21:04.359 --> 00:21:06.680
<v Speaker 1>But Cruise is like, Nah, Well, the whole.

431
00:21:06.519 --> 00:21:09.359
<v Speaker 2>Point is Ethan Hunt is expendable. The other people are.

432
00:21:09.559 --> 00:21:10.160
<v Speaker 2>That's why.

433
00:21:10.319 --> 00:21:11.759
<v Speaker 1>To be fair, everyone's expendable.

434
00:21:12.279 --> 00:21:14.279
<v Speaker 2>Well, in this scenario that the world is ending, I

435
00:21:14.319 --> 00:21:18.359
<v Speaker 2>suppose so, But the premise is that he's expendable. That's

436
00:21:18.359 --> 00:21:20.440
<v Speaker 2>why he's doing all this shit and the other people aren't.

437
00:21:20.519 --> 00:21:23.039
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but you are dealing with world class divers that

438
00:21:23.119 --> 00:21:25.079
<v Speaker 1>are right there, like the best of the best, the

439
00:21:25.119 --> 00:21:28.359
<v Speaker 1>greatest semen around. They know how to and they were

440
00:21:28.400 --> 00:21:30.839
<v Speaker 1>teaching him how to do it. Why not just have

441
00:21:30.960 --> 00:21:31.519
<v Speaker 1>them do it?

442
00:21:32.079 --> 00:21:35.960
<v Speaker 2>Because Tom Cruise, Ethan Hunt is expendable, and that mission

443
00:21:36.279 --> 00:21:38.000
<v Speaker 2>was impossible.

444
00:21:39.319 --> 00:21:42.640
<v Speaker 1>Movie. Oh when they said when they said the title

445
00:21:42.640 --> 00:21:44.119
<v Speaker 1>of the movie in this I almost clapped.

446
00:21:44.160 --> 00:21:46.359
<v Speaker 2>I was so close said it like three times. I

447
00:21:46.359 --> 00:21:51.759
<v Speaker 2>know they needed to say things. Here's my biggest crape

448
00:21:51.799 --> 00:21:54.759
<v Speaker 2>of these last few movies. Not saying things are impossible enough.

449
00:21:54.799 --> 00:21:57.119
<v Speaker 2>They should be like this mission is impossible.

450
00:21:57.720 --> 00:22:00.839
<v Speaker 1>But they also they repeated this same things in these

451
00:22:00.839 --> 00:22:03.599
<v Speaker 1>movies over and over and over again.

452
00:22:03.759 --> 00:22:07.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the dialogue wasn't great, admittedly, go I also felt

453
00:22:07.480 --> 00:22:11.000
<v Speaker 2>like and it was trending this way. Anyways, these last

454
00:22:11.000 --> 00:22:15.759
<v Speaker 2>couple in the first five, let's say first, Yeah, I'll

455
00:22:15.759 --> 00:22:20.519
<v Speaker 2>say the first five they are more streamlined, less video

456
00:22:20.599 --> 00:22:22.519
<v Speaker 2>gamey where you have to do this just to do this,

457
00:22:22.640 --> 00:22:24.559
<v Speaker 2>And there was some of that, but it was more

458
00:22:24.559 --> 00:22:28.440
<v Speaker 2>spy espionage and less Indiana Jones going to a temple

459
00:22:28.519 --> 00:22:30.400
<v Speaker 2>and getting this thing so we can do another thing.

460
00:22:31.039 --> 00:22:33.799
<v Speaker 2>These last couple really felt like Indiana Jones movies to

461
00:22:33.839 --> 00:22:37.000
<v Speaker 2>a certain degree, especially this one, like he's got to

462
00:22:37.039 --> 00:22:38.680
<v Speaker 2>go do this task so that he can go do

463
00:22:38.759 --> 00:22:43.119
<v Speaker 2>this other task, and it's like it just felt less spy.

464
00:22:43.160 --> 00:22:46.480
<v Speaker 2>Like I love these movies because of that spy espionage shit,

465
00:22:46.559 --> 00:22:48.240
<v Speaker 2>the same way I love the Boorn movies like that

466
00:22:48.400 --> 00:22:51.240
<v Speaker 2>aspect of it is what to me separates it from

467
00:22:51.279 --> 00:22:56.799
<v Speaker 2>other action movies recently, these last three really, including Fallout.

468
00:22:56.920 --> 00:22:59.759
<v Speaker 2>As much as great as that movie is, they're not

469
00:22:59.799 --> 00:23:04.200
<v Speaker 2>the same as the original as it was originally intended.

470
00:23:04.400 --> 00:23:07.200
<v Speaker 2>And that's because, you know, you can only tell so

471
00:23:07.240 --> 00:23:10.880
<v Speaker 2>many stories with the same characters. So I don't love that,

472
00:23:11.079 --> 00:23:12.960
<v Speaker 2>And that's why I think these last two or three

473
00:23:13.039 --> 00:23:16.119
<v Speaker 2>have been a step below Ghost Protocol and Roade Nation.

474
00:23:16.279 --> 00:23:19.039
<v Speaker 2>For me, it's just not as the stories aren't as fun.

475
00:23:19.119 --> 00:23:20.000
<v Speaker 1>They're not fun.

476
00:23:20.359 --> 00:23:22.680
<v Speaker 2>They're just not as fun when they're like when Tom

477
00:23:22.680 --> 00:23:24.920
<v Speaker 2>Cruise is running hiding from a government, when like the

478
00:23:24.920 --> 00:23:27.319
<v Speaker 2>government's actively working for him. It's just not as fun,

479
00:23:27.440 --> 00:23:27.759
<v Speaker 2>you know.

480
00:23:27.720 --> 00:23:29.599
<v Speaker 1>And everyone the entire time is like, you, son of

481
00:23:29.640 --> 00:23:32.720
<v Speaker 1>a bitch, you're gonna backstab us, but there's no one

482
00:23:32.720 --> 00:23:34.759
<v Speaker 1>else in the world that can do it, so we're

483
00:23:34.799 --> 00:23:36.759
<v Speaker 1>gonna have to put our trust in your hands.

484
00:23:37.000 --> 00:23:38.880
<v Speaker 2>At least the last movie had a little bit more

485
00:23:38.920 --> 00:23:42.519
<v Speaker 2>of him running from government agency. This one there was

486
00:23:42.559 --> 00:23:43.480
<v Speaker 2>like really none of that.

487
00:23:43.720 --> 00:23:46.359
<v Speaker 1>Also, I'm I might take all my time and just

488
00:23:46.440 --> 00:23:50.240
<v Speaker 1>accept my YouTube copyright strikes, and I want to mix

489
00:23:50.319 --> 00:23:54.039
<v Speaker 1>him in the ocean with Donkey Kong's aquatic ambiance.

490
00:23:54.200 --> 00:23:56.119
<v Speaker 2>Oh cake by the ocean.

491
00:23:56.200 --> 00:23:58.480
<v Speaker 1>No, no, it's aquatic, Tom Beyonce, I know.

492
00:23:58.400 --> 00:24:03.799
<v Speaker 2>But that's what I thought. We'll get to that in

493
00:24:03.920 --> 00:24:04.680
<v Speaker 2>the spoilers.

494
00:24:04.759 --> 00:24:08.880
<v Speaker 1>Oh my goodness for so long once again, all the

495
00:24:08.920 --> 00:24:11.079
<v Speaker 1>divers telling him you need to do this or you're

496
00:24:11.079 --> 00:24:14.799
<v Speaker 1>gonna die. Tom's like, yep, I'm fine, to be fair.

497
00:24:14.680 --> 00:24:17.559
<v Speaker 2>The fifteen minutes of the submarine were fucking awesome.

498
00:24:17.240 --> 00:24:19.079
<v Speaker 1>And I'm not even so like, let's go to the

499
00:24:20.799 --> 00:24:24.279
<v Speaker 1>gauntlet here. Yeah, I wouldn't even call that scene fun.

500
00:24:24.440 --> 00:24:27.440
<v Speaker 1>I love that scene, but like heart rate fun factor

501
00:24:27.440 --> 00:24:30.079
<v Speaker 1>wise none, there is zero fun in this.

502
00:24:30.279 --> 00:24:31.000
<v Speaker 2>It was skilly.

503
00:24:32.240 --> 00:24:34.240
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't even say scaley well, it was.

504
00:24:34.279 --> 00:24:37.480
<v Speaker 2>It was like heart racing because thinking about being in

505
00:24:37.519 --> 00:24:41.400
<v Speaker 2>a submarine that is on the ocean floor five hundred

506
00:24:41.519 --> 00:24:45.279
<v Speaker 2>feet five hundred feet below an ice capped surface, it's

507
00:24:45.400 --> 00:24:49.119
<v Speaker 2>downright fucking terrifying. That's skilly. I don't want to do that.

508
00:24:49.559 --> 00:24:52.440
<v Speaker 2>But then like him, like having to traverse through the

509
00:24:52.480 --> 00:24:56.079
<v Speaker 2>submarine that's twisting and turning, that was awesome, edge of

510
00:24:56.119 --> 00:24:58.960
<v Speaker 2>your seat type of stuff. The problem is that was

511
00:24:59.039 --> 00:25:01.160
<v Speaker 2>the only real part the movie where you felt like

512
00:25:01.200 --> 00:25:02.720
<v Speaker 2>you were on the edge of the seat, at least

513
00:25:02.759 --> 00:25:07.480
<v Speaker 2>for me. Fun factor wise, this movie has fun, but

514
00:25:07.599 --> 00:25:11.319
<v Speaker 2>it's not like it's a victim of its own franchise,

515
00:25:11.400 --> 00:25:14.440
<v Speaker 2>right this movie franchise has been very fun in the past,

516
00:25:14.440 --> 00:25:15.759
<v Speaker 2>and this movie's not very fun.

517
00:25:15.920 --> 00:25:19.720
<v Speaker 1>Every scene where Tom Cruise meets a new person, the

518
00:25:19.799 --> 00:25:22.160
<v Speaker 1>person's like, you want me to trust you, and then

519
00:25:22.200 --> 00:25:24.759
<v Speaker 1>within three minutes they're like, ah, this guy.

520
00:25:25.160 --> 00:25:28.279
<v Speaker 2>Well, like in the past movies too, people constantly ripping

521
00:25:28.400 --> 00:25:30.200
<v Speaker 2>masks off, you know, we only get that once in

522
00:25:30.200 --> 00:25:32.759
<v Speaker 2>this movie. Like again, less of that spy Espa.

523
00:25:33.039 --> 00:25:35.319
<v Speaker 1>I get my best laughs when people pull masks off.

524
00:25:35.400 --> 00:25:38.039
<v Speaker 2>It's the best. Yeah, it's the best. Like and it's

525
00:25:38.079 --> 00:25:40.160
<v Speaker 2>just it's part of this It's what makes this series,

526
00:25:40.200 --> 00:25:43.160
<v Speaker 2>this series, And like this movie really isn't that, you.

527
00:25:43.119 --> 00:25:48.279
<v Speaker 1>Know, satisfactor for it being the final I'm not satisfied.

528
00:25:48.720 --> 00:25:52.799
<v Speaker 2>I was half satisfied. I could have been more satisfied.

529
00:25:52.839 --> 00:25:56.119
<v Speaker 2>I could have been more annoyed. I was half half satisfied.

530
00:25:56.240 --> 00:25:59.960
<v Speaker 1>Borometer, I was really bored until we got into the submarine.

531
00:26:00.079 --> 00:26:03.240
<v Speaker 2>I wasn't really bored, to be honest. I thought it

532
00:26:03.279 --> 00:26:04.920
<v Speaker 2>did enough to keep my interest going.

533
00:26:05.440 --> 00:26:09.000
<v Speaker 1>Awkwater World if not for the submarine. So like, this

534
00:26:09.200 --> 00:26:13.599
<v Speaker 1>looks really good. Obviously, these movies all look amazing. Yeah,

535
00:26:13.680 --> 00:26:17.400
<v Speaker 1>I think I have more fun with awkward worlds. What

536
00:26:17.440 --> 00:26:19.319
<v Speaker 1>the fuck is water World?

537
00:26:21.759 --> 00:26:24.160
<v Speaker 2>This does become a bit water World dish when we

538
00:26:24.200 --> 00:26:28.559
<v Speaker 2>get up to the polarized cap stare sadly sadly go

539
00:26:29.160 --> 00:26:31.799
<v Speaker 2>And I hate to admit this water World is gonna

540
00:26:31.799 --> 00:26:33.359
<v Speaker 2>be more rewatchable than this movie.

541
00:26:33.359 --> 00:26:35.200
<v Speaker 1>Oh, oh my god, you're not gonna be like, oh,

542
00:26:35.279 --> 00:26:37.440
<v Speaker 1>I have five hours to watch a movie right now,

543
00:26:37.480 --> 00:26:38.119
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna watch.

544
00:26:38.640 --> 00:26:41.039
<v Speaker 2>Let me pick the fifth best mission impossible.

545
00:26:41.559 --> 00:26:45.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so like water World's better? What do you want?

546
00:26:46.480 --> 00:26:48.599
<v Speaker 2>This might be the knife one? Did I count? Run?

547
00:26:49.000 --> 00:26:49.519
<v Speaker 1>Count again?

548
00:26:51.119 --> 00:26:51.200
<v Speaker 2>No?

549
00:26:51.279 --> 00:26:53.480
<v Speaker 1>This is the Okay, there we go. We would have

550
00:26:53.480 --> 00:26:57.920
<v Speaker 1>had to title the pole episode over again Halloween. Will

551
00:26:57.920 --> 00:27:00.000
<v Speaker 1>this wait over time? Yeah?

552
00:27:00.079 --> 00:27:00.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

553
00:27:00.359 --> 00:27:03.839
<v Speaker 1>I think people are really gonna dissect this movie and

554
00:27:04.319 --> 00:27:07.440
<v Speaker 1>kind of go into just how cheesy and over the

555
00:27:07.480 --> 00:27:08.000
<v Speaker 1>top it is.

556
00:27:08.759 --> 00:27:12.319
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, because it should be the last movie

557
00:27:12.319 --> 00:27:13.799
<v Speaker 2>in the series, and I think people are gonna be

558
00:27:13.799 --> 00:27:16.519
<v Speaker 2>a little more forgiving in that rap respect.

559
00:27:16.720 --> 00:27:19.039
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, people are always for giving up the last movies.

560
00:27:19.079 --> 00:27:22.400
<v Speaker 2>You're right, well, in this series, I think so. I

561
00:27:22.440 --> 00:27:24.319
<v Speaker 2>mean it's a send off sort of thing, you know.

562
00:27:24.920 --> 00:27:27.640
<v Speaker 2>I also think we forget this. This franchise has been

563
00:27:27.680 --> 00:27:30.440
<v Speaker 2>corny and cheesey in the past, so I don't think

564
00:27:30.440 --> 00:27:31.119
<v Speaker 2>peoplere gonna.

565
00:27:30.920 --> 00:27:32.599
<v Speaker 1>Be they did a better job with it. Though they

566
00:27:32.599 --> 00:27:33.680
<v Speaker 1>did a better job.

567
00:27:33.839 --> 00:27:35.480
<v Speaker 2>No, I agree, I just don't think people are gonna

568
00:27:35.480 --> 00:27:36.920
<v Speaker 2>be like upset with this movie.

569
00:27:37.079 --> 00:27:40.319
<v Speaker 1>Plemonade. For those of you who don't know, Jesse Plemmons

570
00:27:40.559 --> 00:27:43.119
<v Speaker 1>is the best when he shows up, and he sometimes

571
00:27:43.160 --> 00:27:46.440
<v Speaker 1>does it for a very short amount of time. Who

572
00:27:46.440 --> 00:27:49.599
<v Speaker 1>did that in this movie? And we might have a bias,

573
00:27:50.480 --> 00:27:52.000
<v Speaker 1>but it's Tramill Tilman.

574
00:27:52.200 --> 00:27:56.400
<v Speaker 2>Tramill Tillman as Captain bloodsoe you would know him from

575
00:27:56.440 --> 00:28:01.160
<v Speaker 2>Severance was so good in this his like his giddiness,

576
00:28:01.359 --> 00:28:03.039
<v Speaker 2>but first of all, you weren't sure if he was

577
00:28:03.079 --> 00:28:06.359
<v Speaker 2>gonna be pro or anti Ethie Hunt Ethan Hunt. And

578
00:28:06.359 --> 00:28:08.960
<v Speaker 2>then when he like he's giddy to go after the Russians,

579
00:28:08.960 --> 00:28:11.039
<v Speaker 2>like he just he kicked it up a notch and

580
00:28:11.079 --> 00:28:13.319
<v Speaker 2>that's when the movie started kicking up a notch as well.

581
00:28:13.400 --> 00:28:17.079
<v Speaker 2>Like I thought, he was awesome and he brought an

582
00:28:17.240 --> 00:28:20.680
<v Speaker 2>energy to the screen that let's say, hey, I wanting

583
00:28:20.759 --> 00:28:23.480
<v Speaker 2>him didn't even though she was good Like Tramon, Tillman

584
00:28:23.519 --> 00:28:24.920
<v Speaker 2>just brought an energy to the screen that a lot

585
00:28:24.960 --> 00:28:26.000
<v Speaker 2>of other people didn't have.

586
00:28:26.359 --> 00:28:28.599
<v Speaker 1>Max Credit Union, Who do you give in credit to?

587
00:28:30.559 --> 00:28:34.079
<v Speaker 2>This is a tough one for me. Like, obviously Tom

588
00:28:34.160 --> 00:28:37.279
<v Speaker 2>Cruise gets credit for doing all the crazy stunts and shit.

589
00:28:37.839 --> 00:28:40.279
<v Speaker 2>I almost want to give it to Haley Atwell for

590
00:28:40.400 --> 00:28:43.680
<v Speaker 2>like fitting in seamlessly these last couple of movies. But

591
00:28:43.720 --> 00:28:47.039
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna give it to to Ving Raims for being

592
00:28:47.079 --> 00:28:49.839
<v Speaker 2>a guy being there from day one. He's been an

593
00:28:49.839 --> 00:28:53.359
<v Speaker 2>integral part of every story, the tech guy. Let's let's

594
00:28:53.359 --> 00:28:54.519
<v Speaker 2>give it to Ving Rams here go.

595
00:28:54.759 --> 00:28:58.519
<v Speaker 1>That's like Rob Gronkowski and Julian Edelman's podcast Dudes on Dudes.

596
00:28:58.839 --> 00:29:00.599
<v Speaker 1>They're like, you know what, this guy as a dude.

597
00:29:00.640 --> 00:29:02.680
<v Speaker 1>I want to give him credit for me and a dude,

598
00:29:02.759 --> 00:29:05.440
<v Speaker 1>Vin Raims, What kind of a dude is that guy?

599
00:29:05.480 --> 00:29:07.519
<v Speaker 2>He is a dude.

600
00:29:08.680 --> 00:29:10.759
<v Speaker 1>Adelman's a very good podcaster, by the way, so I'm

601
00:29:10.799 --> 00:29:12.200
<v Speaker 1>not taking any kind of a shot at him.

602
00:29:12.400 --> 00:29:13.279
<v Speaker 2>Great personality.

603
00:29:13.440 --> 00:29:14.079
<v Speaker 1>Gronk is not.

604
00:29:15.279 --> 00:29:18.519
<v Speaker 2>Did you see his Sunday conversation with Caleb Presley? I

605
00:29:18.559 --> 00:29:19.960
<v Speaker 2>did a plus stuff.

606
00:29:19.960 --> 00:29:22.480
<v Speaker 1>It's always A plus stuff. Yeah, he might have the

607
00:29:22.480 --> 00:29:26.480
<v Speaker 1>best batting average around. Yeah pants ten city Excite, bike

608
00:29:26.559 --> 00:29:31.559
<v Speaker 1>Mania and the best way to outdo that amazing train

609
00:29:31.720 --> 00:29:34.160
<v Speaker 1>scene from the last movie. That train scene was awesome.

610
00:29:34.519 --> 00:29:36.119
<v Speaker 1>It was let's go underwater.

611
00:29:36.279 --> 00:29:40.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we get a similar scene in that, you know,

612
00:29:40.359 --> 00:29:44.000
<v Speaker 2>this submarine is getting ready to follow the even further

613
00:29:44.119 --> 00:29:47.359
<v Speaker 2>to further depths. Now it's just Ethan hunt and in

614
00:29:47.400 --> 00:29:53.680
<v Speaker 2>a like high tech scuba suit traversing through half submerged

615
00:29:54.079 --> 00:29:57.480
<v Speaker 2>stuff in the submarine. And so you get vibes of

616
00:29:57.480 --> 00:29:59.599
<v Speaker 2>that train scene when they're climbing through the train cars.

617
00:30:00.160 --> 00:30:02.559
<v Speaker 2>I thought it was super intense for like ten minutes there.

618
00:30:02.599 --> 00:30:04.759
<v Speaker 2>I really enjoyed the shit out of that scene.

619
00:30:05.079 --> 00:30:07.559
<v Speaker 1>And it is skilly for those of you tarrety to

620
00:30:07.559 --> 00:30:09.720
<v Speaker 1>the Mac and Goo party. We write everything on a

621
00:30:09.799 --> 00:30:13.559
<v Speaker 1>forty hot dog rating system. Mac, I will agree with you.

622
00:30:13.640 --> 00:30:18.200
<v Speaker 1>I thought the submarine scene and him on the plane

623
00:30:18.920 --> 00:30:21.519
<v Speaker 1>was worth your money. I think that those were two

624
00:30:22.200 --> 00:30:28.000
<v Speaker 1>awesome action scenes. Send off wise, not super satisfying. It's

625
00:30:28.039 --> 00:30:29.839
<v Speaker 1>the end of the world as we know it, and

626
00:30:29.960 --> 00:30:34.880
<v Speaker 1>I feel fine, this was overly serious. There's zero levity

627
00:30:34.920 --> 00:30:37.680
<v Speaker 1>to it. I had very little fun while watching this

628
00:30:38.039 --> 00:30:40.160
<v Speaker 1>and I'm not saying, like, make this a comedy.

629
00:30:40.240 --> 00:30:42.680
<v Speaker 2>Bobby should have had popcorn. This might be on you.

630
00:30:42.799 --> 00:30:44.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm not allowed to have popcorn. That's a self and

631
00:30:44.799 --> 00:30:49.240
<v Speaker 1>post rule against myself. But like, I'm not saying to

632
00:30:49.240 --> 00:30:52.400
<v Speaker 1>make it a comedy. But like the other movies are fun,

633
00:30:53.000 --> 00:30:56.440
<v Speaker 1>they're heisty. This hit the ground running, and I don't

634
00:30:56.480 --> 00:30:59.440
<v Speaker 1>mean that in a good way. It just from the

635
00:30:59.519 --> 00:31:02.319
<v Speaker 1>get go is at like forty miles an hour. There

636
00:31:02.400 --> 00:31:04.480
<v Speaker 1>is no ramp up to anything. It is just from

637
00:31:04.480 --> 00:31:06.000
<v Speaker 1>the get go, from the last movie.

638
00:31:06.039 --> 00:31:09.680
<v Speaker 2>It's a part too. It's a continuation of a movie

639
00:31:09.680 --> 00:31:10.480
<v Speaker 2>that had a cliffhanger.

640
00:31:10.519 --> 00:31:11.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't think they did a good job with that.

641
00:31:12.000 --> 00:31:12.279
<v Speaker 2>Though.

642
00:31:12.440 --> 00:31:16.279
<v Speaker 1>There's too many flashbacks, too many callbacks. The dialogue has

643
00:31:16.319 --> 00:31:19.680
<v Speaker 1>so much jargon and inside stuff in it that it

644
00:31:19.839 --> 00:31:23.640
<v Speaker 1>ends up almost sounding dumb. And I'm also curious how

645
00:31:23.720 --> 00:31:27.400
<v Speaker 1>many of the lines like percentage wise are complements of

646
00:31:27.440 --> 00:31:31.200
<v Speaker 1>Tom Cruise and Tom Cruise's character about how great he is,

647
00:31:31.240 --> 00:31:32.440
<v Speaker 1>about how awesome he is.

648
00:31:33.039 --> 00:31:34.920
<v Speaker 2>He saved the world seven times.

649
00:31:35.680 --> 00:31:39.279
<v Speaker 1>All the people in the past that he has wronged, no, no, no, no,

650
00:31:39.920 --> 00:31:42.400
<v Speaker 1>that was for a reason, and now they are better

651
00:31:42.440 --> 00:31:45.000
<v Speaker 1>off for it, so thank you, Tom, thank you for

652
00:31:45.039 --> 00:31:45.680
<v Speaker 1>doing that for me.

653
00:31:45.799 --> 00:31:48.680
<v Speaker 2>They are part of the intelligence community, so eventually they

654
00:31:48.720 --> 00:31:50.920
<v Speaker 2>do learn that he does stuff for a reason.

655
00:31:50.759 --> 00:31:53.720
<v Speaker 1>But he is treated as if he is God this

656
00:31:54.000 --> 00:31:56.359
<v Speaker 1>entire movie. And there is one piece of dial of

657
00:31:56.480 --> 00:31:59.640
<v Speaker 1>like it is, Hey, you're the only person that should

658
00:31:59.680 --> 00:32:02.559
<v Speaker 1>be in charge of this, you should be in charge

659
00:32:02.599 --> 00:32:06.240
<v Speaker 1>of all of this. No, it's the people's work. It's like,

660
00:32:06.319 --> 00:32:09.279
<v Speaker 1>calm down, let's all fucking calm down for a second.

661
00:32:10.480 --> 00:32:14.200
<v Speaker 1>Twenty five hot ducks. Really I didn't like this. Wow,

662
00:32:14.200 --> 00:32:17.960
<v Speaker 1>but I'll admit it looks really nice.

663
00:32:19.319 --> 00:32:22.640
<v Speaker 2>This movie was more or less what I was expecting.

664
00:32:23.119 --> 00:32:25.920
<v Speaker 2>I was hoping it would be a little better, but

665
00:32:26.039 --> 00:32:28.680
<v Speaker 2>considering in my mind the last two have trended down

666
00:32:28.799 --> 00:32:30.880
<v Speaker 2>a little bit, I was figuring this would be a

667
00:32:30.880 --> 00:32:32.119
<v Speaker 2>little wired.

668
00:32:32.240 --> 00:32:34.640
<v Speaker 1>Expecte shit.

669
00:32:36.240 --> 00:32:38.519
<v Speaker 2>Once again, the fifteen or so minutes in the Submarine

670
00:32:38.599 --> 00:32:42.799
<v Speaker 2>was fucking awesome, super intense. Also, the fight scene prior

671
00:32:42.839 --> 00:32:46.160
<v Speaker 2>to that, where he's fighting the other marine and then

672
00:32:46.200 --> 00:32:48.480
<v Speaker 2>the fight's happening on Saint Matthew Island, I thought that

673
00:32:48.640 --> 00:32:50.279
<v Speaker 2>was really cool too. So there was a good like

674
00:32:50.680 --> 00:32:52.759
<v Speaker 2>thirty minutes in here that were fucking bals. Of the

675
00:32:52.799 --> 00:32:55.680
<v Speaker 2>Wall great. Then, of course, you know in the third

676
00:32:55.680 --> 00:32:58.880
<v Speaker 2>act of the plane stuff that was also great. This

677
00:32:59.079 --> 00:33:02.599
<v Speaker 2>just didn't quite have the juice that I'm looking for

678
00:33:02.640 --> 00:33:06.079
<v Speaker 2>in a Mission Impossible movie, though, like I fully understand,

679
00:33:06.200 --> 00:33:08.799
<v Speaker 2>we're completing a story that we started in the last movie.

680
00:33:09.119 --> 00:33:10.680
<v Speaker 2>But part of the reason why I didn't love that

681
00:33:10.759 --> 00:33:14.640
<v Speaker 2>last movie is because it didn't feel necessarily like a

682
00:33:14.640 --> 00:33:18.119
<v Speaker 2>Mission Impossible movie or spy thriller movie. Felt more like

683
00:33:18.119 --> 00:33:20.799
<v Speaker 2>an Indiana Jones movie, which is fine, people like those movies.

684
00:33:21.079 --> 00:33:23.319
<v Speaker 2>I just have a preference. I did give the last

685
00:33:23.319 --> 00:33:25.799
<v Speaker 2>movie thirty five hot Dogs, which I may maybe reck

686
00:33:25.880 --> 00:33:28.400
<v Speaker 2>conn a thirty four ish that ended up being the

687
00:33:28.480 --> 00:33:30.960
<v Speaker 2>number twelve movie of twenty twenty three. I don't think

688
00:33:30.960 --> 00:33:33.920
<v Speaker 2>this movie is in that same conversation. I think it's

689
00:33:33.960 --> 00:33:36.960
<v Speaker 2>a step below even that. That movie was just beat

690
00:33:37.039 --> 00:33:39.480
<v Speaker 2>for beat better than this movie. The pacing was better

691
00:33:39.519 --> 00:33:42.200
<v Speaker 2>in that movie. But I did like this movie, and

692
00:33:42.240 --> 00:33:44.400
<v Speaker 2>it's because I love all the characters that were doing

693
00:33:44.440 --> 00:33:47.440
<v Speaker 2>member barriers about good doesn't like that shit. I enjoyed

694
00:33:47.440 --> 00:33:49.680
<v Speaker 2>it knowing it's the finale and it's like ark good

695
00:33:49.680 --> 00:33:53.480
<v Speaker 2>by to these characters. So I'll fully admit this is

696
00:33:53.559 --> 00:33:57.240
<v Speaker 2>probably maybe the fifth best, fourth or fifth best in

697
00:33:57.319 --> 00:34:02.519
<v Speaker 2>the series. It's no, it's probably the fifth best, uh

698
00:34:02.759 --> 00:34:05.680
<v Speaker 2>maybe even sixth because Mission Impossible three I get a

699
00:34:05.720 --> 00:34:08.639
<v Speaker 2>soft spot four two. So I would say this is

700
00:34:08.639 --> 00:34:11.599
<v Speaker 2>probably like thirty two hot Dogs for me. It's like

701
00:34:12.360 --> 00:34:15.320
<v Speaker 2>a good theater movie. You're not really gonna rewatch it,

702
00:34:15.320 --> 00:34:17.199
<v Speaker 2>you're not really gonna recommend it, but you enjoy it

703
00:34:17.239 --> 00:34:20.519
<v Speaker 2>while you're there. On the year for twenty twenty five,

704
00:34:21.400 --> 00:34:24.320
<v Speaker 2>in that range, it's it's I've got four movies now

705
00:34:24.360 --> 00:34:27.760
<v Speaker 2>there Good Novacane, Mickey seventeen, and Companion. I all have

706
00:34:27.880 --> 00:34:29.599
<v Speaker 2>at thirty two hot Dogs. I'm gonna throw this in

707
00:34:29.639 --> 00:34:31.920
<v Speaker 2>there in that range too, So somewhere in the five

708
00:34:32.000 --> 00:34:33.639
<v Speaker 2>to eight range on the year so far, but I've

709
00:34:33.639 --> 00:34:36.679
<v Speaker 2>only seen now I think, thirteen movies. But again, this

710
00:34:36.760 --> 00:34:40.039
<v Speaker 2>does feel more in that Mission Impossible, Mission Impossible three range,

711
00:34:40.039 --> 00:34:43.239
<v Speaker 2>at like thirty two dog range that are really good,

712
00:34:43.719 --> 00:34:47.559
<v Speaker 2>not great. You're not necessarily telling people to go watch

713
00:34:47.599 --> 00:34:52.079
<v Speaker 2>this movie, whereas Ghost Protocol and Road Nation I think

714
00:34:52.079 --> 00:34:55.280
<v Speaker 2>are like two of the best in the genre. Fallout,

715
00:34:55.320 --> 00:34:58.239
<v Speaker 2>of course, people loved that movie too because of all

716
00:34:58.280 --> 00:35:00.679
<v Speaker 2>the action in it. So this just this isn't nearly

717
00:35:00.800 --> 00:35:03.039
<v Speaker 2>on those levels. And if you go and expecting that,

718
00:35:03.079 --> 00:35:06.000
<v Speaker 2>you're going to be disappointed. I didn't go in expecting that,

719
00:35:06.039 --> 00:35:09.119
<v Speaker 2>though I expect, I somewhat expected what we got. So

720
00:35:09.199 --> 00:35:12.559
<v Speaker 2>it really just if it meets my expectations, I can't

721
00:35:12.559 --> 00:35:13.440
<v Speaker 2>be too upset about it.

722
00:35:13.519 --> 00:35:15.480
<v Speaker 1>I have it right around death of a Unicorn, like

723
00:35:15.599 --> 00:35:17.639
<v Speaker 1>nine or ten on the AAR. I just don't care.

724
00:35:18.079 --> 00:35:23.199
<v Speaker 1>I don't care for this. It wasn't for me. The

725
00:35:23.360 --> 00:35:26.599
<v Speaker 1>ocean scene, how does from the depths of the sea.

726
00:35:26.719 --> 00:35:30.920
<v Speaker 1>He doesn't need his submarining divers equipment, he can do

727
00:35:30.960 --> 00:35:31.559
<v Speaker 1>it on his own.

728
00:35:32.159 --> 00:35:37.119
<v Speaker 2>So Tom Cruise Ethan Hunt does it completes his mission

729
00:35:37.320 --> 00:35:41.039
<v Speaker 2>in the submarine Sevestopol I believe it's called, which is

730
00:35:41.079 --> 00:35:44.599
<v Speaker 2>sitting on a cliff on the ocean floor five hundred

731
00:35:44.599 --> 00:35:48.559
<v Speaker 2>feet below. Whilst in there, because he's causing all sorts

732
00:35:48.559 --> 00:35:50.800
<v Speaker 2>of changes with the air and the water, it starts

733
00:35:50.800 --> 00:35:53.079
<v Speaker 2>moving and it's getting ready to fall him further. So

734
00:35:53.119 --> 00:35:58.199
<v Speaker 2>he escapes through a torpedo shoot cool, but secondary he

735
00:35:58.239 --> 00:36:01.519
<v Speaker 2>has to rip his wet suit thing open and he's

736
00:36:01.519 --> 00:36:04.400
<v Speaker 2>probably gonna be about six hundred feet deep now, and

737
00:36:04.920 --> 00:36:09.880
<v Speaker 2>he somehow survives floating up from six hundred feet down,

738
00:36:10.280 --> 00:36:12.280
<v Speaker 2>and then they find him. I do like how they

739
00:36:12.360 --> 00:36:14.159
<v Speaker 2>just glazed over that they cut open the ice and

740
00:36:14.199 --> 00:36:17.960
<v Speaker 2>found him, find him underneath the ice. They do CPR,

741
00:36:18.039 --> 00:36:20.639
<v Speaker 2>and he comes back and survives because of a hyperbaric chamber.

742
00:36:21.400 --> 00:36:24.079
<v Speaker 2>I think that there's a chance his skull would have

743
00:36:24.079 --> 00:36:27.079
<v Speaker 2>been crushed at six hundred feet. I don't really know

744
00:36:27.119 --> 00:36:29.559
<v Speaker 2>the physics of the ocean. I do know that if

745
00:36:29.559 --> 00:36:32.559
<v Speaker 2>you free dive, I think it's around thirty feet. It's

746
00:36:32.639 --> 00:36:36.119
<v Speaker 2>like you can't, like you're you're having a bad time.

747
00:36:36.559 --> 00:36:38.400
<v Speaker 2>I don't even think you can get to fifty feet,

748
00:36:38.519 --> 00:36:40.320
<v Speaker 2>never mind one hundred and two hundred three and all that.

749
00:36:40.760 --> 00:36:43.519
<v Speaker 2>So coming up the compression sickness, all the shit that

750
00:36:43.519 --> 00:36:47.360
<v Speaker 2>the divers were talking about, it's literally impossible that he

751
00:36:47.360 --> 00:36:49.960
<v Speaker 2>would have survived this. And this is a little bit

752
00:36:50.000 --> 00:36:52.599
<v Speaker 2>of a shark jumping moment, because all the shit in

753
00:36:52.639 --> 00:36:56.639
<v Speaker 2>the past, in these movies, they do seem impossible for

754
00:36:56.679 --> 00:36:59.599
<v Speaker 2>someone to survive. Half the time. Also knowing that Tom

755
00:36:59.639 --> 00:37:01.719
<v Speaker 2>Cruise the lot of the practical stunts, you're like, okay,

756
00:37:01.760 --> 00:37:04.840
<v Speaker 2>it's conceivable. I see an avenue, I see the one

757
00:37:04.840 --> 00:37:07.199
<v Speaker 2>out of one hundred that someone would survive this, you know,

758
00:37:07.199 --> 00:37:09.559
<v Speaker 2>at the end, to fall out the helicopter crashers and

759
00:37:09.599 --> 00:37:11.880
<v Speaker 2>they're on the cliff. Unlikely, but I see how that

760
00:37:11.880 --> 00:37:14.920
<v Speaker 2>could happen. I do not see how someone could survive

761
00:37:15.440 --> 00:37:18.480
<v Speaker 2>coming up with no breathing apparatus, no nothing, from six

762
00:37:18.519 --> 00:37:19.880
<v Speaker 2>hundred feet down in the ocean.

763
00:37:20.000 --> 00:37:22.039
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, from six hundred feet. So he took off his

764
00:37:22.159 --> 00:37:25.159
<v Speaker 1>scuba suit at first to get out of the torpedo

765
00:37:26.320 --> 00:37:28.559
<v Speaker 1>launcher there, and then on his way up he gets

766
00:37:28.599 --> 00:37:31.760
<v Speaker 1>caught on the fin of the submarine. So he just

767
00:37:31.840 --> 00:37:35.639
<v Speaker 1>cuts it off entirely and just starts swimming and apparently.

768
00:37:35.320 --> 00:37:37.719
<v Speaker 2>Makes it like five hundred feet up swimming before he

769
00:37:37.760 --> 00:37:41.840
<v Speaker 2>starts convulsing, like twenty feet before the surface. Like, I

770
00:37:41.920 --> 00:37:42.719
<v Speaker 2>didn't love that.

771
00:37:42.960 --> 00:37:46.360
<v Speaker 1>Simon Peg said that the ice would keep him alive.

772
00:37:46.440 --> 00:37:49.239
<v Speaker 2>Which I understand that part of it. There's actually they

773
00:37:49.280 --> 00:37:52.679
<v Speaker 2>do use like they do lower purposely lower people's body

774
00:37:52.679 --> 00:37:57.320
<v Speaker 2>temperatures to keep people alive in some medical situation, So

775
00:37:57.360 --> 00:38:01.000
<v Speaker 2>that part is true. The problem is the it's the

776
00:38:01.039 --> 00:38:03.039
<v Speaker 2>other stuff that would have killed him, not the cold,

777
00:38:03.079 --> 00:38:05.199
<v Speaker 2>but the other stuff, the depth, the pressure, all that shit.

778
00:38:05.320 --> 00:38:08.280
<v Speaker 1>Do you like when he goes to the airplane and

779
00:38:08.280 --> 00:38:11.719
<v Speaker 1>he hijacks that fella's airplane and he one punches him

780
00:38:11.719 --> 00:38:13.119
<v Speaker 1>out like he's Indiana Jones.

781
00:38:13.320 --> 00:38:16.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah that was I was feeling like I was watching

782
00:38:16.400 --> 00:38:21.440
<v Speaker 2>Indiana Jones movie and then that like it's knocked out.

783
00:38:21.400 --> 00:38:23.880
<v Speaker 1>Like someone's fisting a pie.

784
00:38:24.800 --> 00:38:27.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that wasn't great. I did like our send off

785
00:38:27.880 --> 00:38:31.039
<v Speaker 2>to Luther. Finally we got a character that's been here

786
00:38:31.079 --> 00:38:33.360
<v Speaker 2>for forever that had that we lost. We did lose

787
00:38:33.400 --> 00:38:35.960
<v Speaker 2>Rebecca Ferguson in the last movie, but she was only

788
00:38:35.960 --> 00:38:39.280
<v Speaker 2>in a couple. I like when we lose characters that

789
00:38:39.320 --> 00:38:42.039
<v Speaker 2>we've had for a while, characters that are meaningful. So

790
00:38:42.079 --> 00:38:45.239
<v Speaker 2>that was good. I thought it was maybe not a

791
00:38:45.280 --> 00:38:49.559
<v Speaker 2>proper send off for this franchise and the characters. I

792
00:38:49.559 --> 00:38:52.199
<v Speaker 2>thought it was good enough and and that's all. I

793
00:38:52.239 --> 00:38:55.159
<v Speaker 2>really needed, a good enough send off. And I like,

794
00:38:55.840 --> 00:38:58.239
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what more you wanted out of this movie, Like,

795
00:38:58.239 --> 00:38:59.679
<v Speaker 2>how did you feel about the last movie?

796
00:39:00.199 --> 00:39:02.320
<v Speaker 1>It more than this? I think I just wanted I

797
00:39:02.400 --> 00:39:03.800
<v Speaker 1>just think this was just too big.

798
00:39:04.000 --> 00:39:06.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but the last movie was telling us that.

799
00:39:06.079 --> 00:39:09.199
<v Speaker 1>I know that. But everything was just so overly serious.

800
00:39:09.239 --> 00:39:11.960
<v Speaker 1>There was no fun to it, and I hated how

801
00:39:12.079 --> 00:39:16.679
<v Speaker 1>everyone everyone's life. Everyone's dialogue was like, whenever Ethan Hunt

802
00:39:16.719 --> 00:39:19.360
<v Speaker 1>wasn't around, I wonder what Ethan's doing. Ethan's great? Isn't

803
00:39:19.400 --> 00:39:22.800
<v Speaker 1>Ethan the coolest? I agree Ethan is great. The conversation

804
00:39:22.920 --> 00:39:25.480
<v Speaker 1>that Haley Atwell has with him in the Hyperbolic Chamber

805
00:39:25.519 --> 00:39:29.280
<v Speaker 1>about like, hey, like, why don't you control the entity?

806
00:39:29.360 --> 00:39:32.119
<v Speaker 1>Why don't like why? I think you should be the

807
00:39:32.159 --> 00:39:35.559
<v Speaker 1>one that's in charge of all of this. Get off

808
00:39:35.639 --> 00:39:39.400
<v Speaker 1>his balls, stop it, stop it with everybody.

809
00:39:39.800 --> 00:39:41.679
<v Speaker 2>I don't know why they didn't just destroy it.

810
00:39:41.679 --> 00:39:44.480
<v Speaker 1>It's in a flash drive now, right, so destroy it.

811
00:39:44.599 --> 00:39:47.000
<v Speaker 1>Well if you threw the flash drive down now that

812
00:39:47.039 --> 00:39:49.039
<v Speaker 1>it's like caught in there, couldn't like plank o its

813
00:39:49.039 --> 00:39:49.480
<v Speaker 1>way out.

814
00:39:49.960 --> 00:39:52.079
<v Speaker 2>I don't think so. I don't think it's.

815
00:39:52.239 --> 00:39:54.079
<v Speaker 1>I don't know the science behind it. I don't know

816
00:39:54.199 --> 00:39:55.840
<v Speaker 1>the math behind it.

817
00:39:57.159 --> 00:39:58.880
<v Speaker 2>There were some Ultron vibes here too.

818
00:39:59.400 --> 00:40:01.440
<v Speaker 1>I was actually thinking, like at the start, I'm like, oh,

819
00:40:01.519 --> 00:40:06.679
<v Speaker 1>Tom Cruise, age of Ultron? Tom Cruise?

820
00:40:06.719 --> 00:40:11.159
<v Speaker 2>Was he originally almost iron man? I? I, yeah, you're right,

821
00:40:11.199 --> 00:40:13.719
<v Speaker 2>you're right about that. I just have a hard time,

822
00:40:13.840 --> 00:40:16.639
<v Speaker 2>like overly criticizing this. It was like almost exactly what

823
00:40:16.719 --> 00:40:18.199
<v Speaker 2>I expected in some respects.

824
00:40:18.239 --> 00:40:20.920
<v Speaker 1>I think my favorite still from the movie is when

825
00:40:20.960 --> 00:40:23.320
<v Speaker 1>he's hanging onto the wing of the plane and his

826
00:40:23.400 --> 00:40:25.400
<v Speaker 1>head is facing this way and he has like that

827
00:40:25.480 --> 00:40:29.400
<v Speaker 1>dirpy haircut. It was the ball and I'm like, this

828
00:40:29.519 --> 00:40:32.199
<v Speaker 1>was all worth it, This was worth it. I was

829
00:40:32.280 --> 00:40:34.199
<v Speaker 1>thinking early on. I'm like, I think he should have

830
00:40:34.239 --> 00:40:36.480
<v Speaker 1>went back with the shorter hair. He looks younger, he

831
00:40:36.480 --> 00:40:37.199
<v Speaker 1>looks fresher.

832
00:40:37.400 --> 00:40:39.519
<v Speaker 2>He did look younger freshman the last movie. And I

833
00:40:39.519 --> 00:40:41.599
<v Speaker 2>do like that. They point out Haley atwell at the

834
00:40:41.639 --> 00:40:43.480
<v Speaker 2>begin of this movie points so like, I like the

835
00:40:43.519 --> 00:40:43.960
<v Speaker 2>long hair.

836
00:40:44.039 --> 00:40:46.559
<v Speaker 1>No, but I don't like that because it's too complimentary.

837
00:40:46.639 --> 00:40:48.559
<v Speaker 1>Every line can't be complimentary.

838
00:40:48.800 --> 00:40:50.960
<v Speaker 2>That's the tug in cheek shit you're talking about. Though.

839
00:40:51.000 --> 00:40:51.960
<v Speaker 2>You gotta appreciate that.

840
00:40:52.000 --> 00:40:54.559
<v Speaker 1>But it was a compliment to him. This is so

841
00:40:54.639 --> 00:40:57.119
<v Speaker 1>it's yes for one thing, but also something else. Too

842
00:40:57.159 --> 00:40:59.280
<v Speaker 1>many compliments for Tom Cruise in this movie.

843
00:40:59.360 --> 00:41:01.519
<v Speaker 2>Pom Clement was great, by the way. She was awesome

844
00:41:01.639 --> 00:41:02.079
<v Speaker 2>this so.

845
00:41:02.159 --> 00:41:05.679
<v Speaker 1>In the last movie she was pretty much playing a joker. Yeah,

846
00:41:05.719 --> 00:41:08.639
<v Speaker 1>but this movie calmed it down really little more depth

847
00:41:08.679 --> 00:41:09.320
<v Speaker 1>to her character.

848
00:41:09.599 --> 00:41:11.519
<v Speaker 2>I don't know why she didn't speak English the whole

849
00:41:11.519 --> 00:41:13.039
<v Speaker 2>time when she could understand English, but.

850
00:41:13.119 --> 00:41:14.679
<v Speaker 1>Did you speak English last movie?

851
00:41:15.000 --> 00:41:18.079
<v Speaker 2>No, she's spoke in French or whatever she speaks in

852
00:41:17.800 --> 00:41:25.440
<v Speaker 2>U in this movie. I just like, I feel like

853
00:41:25.480 --> 00:41:28.239
<v Speaker 2>you're having I mean, you didn't enjoy it, clearly.

854
00:41:28.000 --> 00:41:30.599
<v Speaker 1>But I did not enjoy it. My diet PEPSI sucked.

855
00:41:30.880 --> 00:41:33.559
<v Speaker 2>I also feel like your complaints and gripes aren't great.

856
00:41:33.599 --> 00:41:37.719
<v Speaker 1>The entire movie was that? Are you saying the entire

857
00:41:37.719 --> 00:41:41.000
<v Speaker 1>movie wasn't a big complimentary.

858
00:41:39.679 --> 00:41:41.559
<v Speaker 2>Say, I feel like I feel like this is what

859
00:41:41.679 --> 00:41:44.039
<v Speaker 2>it should have been. Essentially, it was.

860
00:41:44.000 --> 00:41:47.159
<v Speaker 1>Too big, it was boring, it was joyless.

861
00:41:47.519 --> 00:41:58.280
<v Speaker 2>Fair enough, let's get into sac you saw, you saw

862
00:41:58.360 --> 00:42:00.559
<v Speaker 2>here's a little here's a little spoiler of the folks

863
00:42:00.679 --> 00:42:02.719
<v Speaker 2>that have made it this fart of the episode. You

864
00:42:02.719 --> 00:42:04.719
<v Speaker 2>saw another movie this week and you said that movie

865
00:42:04.760 --> 00:42:05.559
<v Speaker 2>better than this movie.

866
00:42:05.679 --> 00:42:07.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean, we're in nax Zach right now when

867
00:42:07.400 --> 00:42:09.840
<v Speaker 1>it could be anything. And apparently MATC just asked me

868
00:42:09.840 --> 00:42:13.320
<v Speaker 1>a question before I fucking introduced it. Yeah, we're gonna

869
00:42:13.320 --> 00:42:16.039
<v Speaker 1>talk about Stitch next week. Lelo and Stitch the live action.

870
00:42:16.599 --> 00:42:20.079
<v Speaker 1>I enjoyed it. Is it the best? No? But did

871
00:42:20.119 --> 00:42:23.440
<v Speaker 1>it do enough to warrant being a or being made.

872
00:42:23.480 --> 00:42:25.760
<v Speaker 1>It's a live action job. Yeah, it did its job.

873
00:42:26.039 --> 00:42:28.559
<v Speaker 1>I would say that I might have liked Aladdin a

874
00:42:28.599 --> 00:42:30.760
<v Speaker 1>little bit more when it comes to the live action ones,

875
00:42:30.760 --> 00:42:33.239
<v Speaker 1>but I like that movie more than most. I think

876
00:42:33.280 --> 00:42:36.199
<v Speaker 1>it's kind of fun at swashbuckling. This one has an

877
00:42:36.239 --> 00:42:39.920
<v Speaker 1>issue that when Stitch is not on the screen, kind.

878
00:42:39.679 --> 00:42:41.400
<v Speaker 2>Of lacks means family.

879
00:42:41.840 --> 00:42:43.360
<v Speaker 1>Ohanna does mean family?

880
00:42:43.760 --> 00:42:47.639
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Well, I'm looking forward to Stitch. Is there another

881
00:42:47.639 --> 00:42:50.159
<v Speaker 2>movie coming out soon too? We're getting closer.

882
00:42:49.800 --> 00:42:52.159
<v Speaker 1>To the bris Arena is coming out this lots.

888
00:43:10.559 --> 00:43:12.159
<v Speaker 1>what I was gonna talk about in your sack. A

889
00:43:12.280 --> 00:43:17.400
<v Speaker 1>huge part of my teenage years was at five o'clock

890
00:43:17.880 --> 00:43:21.320
<v Speaker 1>popping on ESPN and catching a bunch of my friends

891
00:43:21.360 --> 00:43:26.400
<v Speaker 1>debating sports. And that was Around the Horn. Today, Friday,

892
00:43:27.039 --> 00:43:29.960
<v Speaker 1>May twenty third, twenty twenty five, The Year of Our

893
00:43:30.039 --> 00:43:33.599
<v Speaker 1>Lord is the final episode of Around the Horn. Have

894
00:43:33.760 --> 00:43:35.480
<v Speaker 1>I seen an episode.

895
00:43:35.079 --> 00:43:36.519
<v Speaker 2>I thought they stopped like a year ago.

896
00:43:36.719 --> 00:43:38.519
<v Speaker 1>No, No, it was canceled a couple months ago. The

<v Speaker 1>final episode is today. Am I completely am I one

898
00:43:42.159 --> 00:43:45.239
<v Speaker 1>hundred percent sure about that fact. No, but I think

899
00:43:45.320 --> 00:43:48.880
<v Speaker 1>it's right all right, I will say that once again,

900
00:43:49.039 --> 00:43:51.159
<v Speaker 1>and this is no slight against it. I just I

901
00:43:51.199 --> 00:43:53.440
<v Speaker 1>don't really, I don't have ESPN. I'm not around around

902
00:43:53.480 --> 00:43:56.639
<v Speaker 1>five o'clock to watch it. I probably wouldn't watch it anyways.

903
00:43:56.719 --> 00:44:01.280
<v Speaker 1>But as a teenager, Around the Horn maybe my favorite show.

904
00:44:01.440 --> 00:44:03.440
<v Speaker 2>It was great. It was Around the Horn and PTI

905
00:44:03.599 --> 00:44:05.679
<v Speaker 2>on back to back five and five thirty leading in

906
00:44:05.719 --> 00:44:09.519
<v Speaker 2>the Sports Center at six. Both were great, like especially

907
00:44:09.599 --> 00:44:12.719
<v Speaker 2>mid two thousands, they were perfect mid two thousands, Uh,

908
00:44:12.760 --> 00:44:17.039
<v Speaker 2>sports shows. I might be misremembering. Wasn't there a time

909
00:44:17.039 --> 00:44:18.760
<v Speaker 2>at the beginning of the show where it wasn't always

910
00:44:18.760 --> 00:44:21.000
<v Speaker 2>Tony Reality hosting? Or was he always hosting?

911
00:44:21.360 --> 00:44:22.639
<v Speaker 1>Max Kellerman was the host?

912
00:44:22.840 --> 00:44:25.280
<v Speaker 2>Oh yes, yep, that's right, because at.

913
00:44:25.199 --> 00:44:28.480
<v Speaker 1>First Tony Reality was stat Boy on around on PTS.

914
00:44:28.559 --> 00:44:31.880
<v Speaker 2>That's right, that's right, that's where it's now. It's connecting

915
00:44:32.480 --> 00:44:37.960
<v Speaker 2>Woody Page, the best I think all time. PTI guy

916
00:44:38.039 --> 00:44:40.679
<v Speaker 2>you also had Skip was on there for a little bit.

917
00:44:41.199 --> 00:44:47.840
<v Speaker 2>Tim kallishaw Ja, Don Day, Michael and Mike Smith, Jackie McMullen,

918
00:44:48.039 --> 00:44:50.639
<v Speaker 2>Bob Ryan. When it first started, it was really just

919
00:44:50.679 --> 00:44:53.159
<v Speaker 2>six or seven and then Sully Moore worked their way in,

920
00:44:53.800 --> 00:44:55.800
<v Speaker 2>But it was it was a good way to get

921
00:44:56.079 --> 00:44:58.760
<v Speaker 2>get like these writers because I mean, think about it,

922
00:44:58.800 --> 00:45:03.119
<v Speaker 2>goo nineties sports writers were still mainly print, hadn't really

923
00:45:03.199 --> 00:45:07.199
<v Speaker 2>made their their impression on TV yet. ESPN changed out

924
00:45:07.199 --> 00:45:08.920
<v Speaker 2>a little bit, Sports Center changed out a little bit,

925
00:45:08.920 --> 00:45:11.519
<v Speaker 2>but it was still like different. They were anchors. And

926
00:45:11.559 --> 00:45:13.960
<v Speaker 2>then the two thousands brought on a lot of these shows.

927
00:45:14.239 --> 00:45:16.000
<v Speaker 2>You had what was the Sunday Show with.

928
00:45:16.599 --> 00:45:17.559
<v Speaker 1>The sports writers?

929
00:45:17.639 --> 00:45:19.719
<v Speaker 2>Sports writers? Great fucking was.

930
00:45:19.639 --> 00:45:23.840
<v Speaker 1>It Bob Lee? But Bobby Lee the guy from Matt TV.

931
00:45:24.199 --> 00:45:26.519
<v Speaker 2>Forget who was on there all the time. But that

932
00:45:26.639 --> 00:45:29.000
<v Speaker 2>was a great fucking show. And so the two thousands

933
00:45:29.000 --> 00:45:34.920
<v Speaker 2>really worked these sports writers into it. Okay and yeah sure,

934
00:45:35.440 --> 00:45:37.320
<v Speaker 2>and it just really it really took these guys up

935
00:45:37.320 --> 00:45:40.239
<v Speaker 2>a notch, like and you started really and like it's

936
00:45:40.320 --> 00:45:42.800
<v Speaker 2>led to some of the bad spot like Skip Bayless

937
00:45:42.800 --> 00:45:46.159
<v Speaker 2>and Steven A have have gotten into ridiculous spots these days.

938
00:45:46.159 --> 00:45:49.920
<v Speaker 2>They their caricatures of their former selves. But when this

939
00:45:50.000 --> 00:45:52.119
<v Speaker 2>all began. There wasn't time and place where they weren't

940
00:45:52.159 --> 00:45:55.519
<v Speaker 2>being completely ridiculous and it was really entertaining. Television Mac.
