WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:02.160 It seems like sometimes it takes a minute from my 2 00:00:02.279 --> 00:00:06.240 video to kick him. There we go, Ah, there you are. Yeah, 3 00:00:07.160 --> 00:00:08.880 I got my hair cut today. I see you'll fancy 4 00:00:08.880 --> 00:00:09.400 I look. 5 00:00:10.000 --> 00:00:13.800 Yeah, yeah, spippy. 6 00:00:14.240 --> 00:00:17.960 There's this Colombian guy who cuts my hair. He's pretty old, 7 00:00:18.800 --> 00:00:21.960 you know. And like I said, I I generally seek 8 00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:25.519 out Spanish or Japanese barbers because they know how to 9 00:00:25.519 --> 00:00:28.000 cut hair, particularly if you got you know, like long 10 00:00:28.039 --> 00:00:33.560 straight hair. But sometimes dudes not at the shop, and 11 00:00:33.600 --> 00:00:36.280 he doesn't inform anybody, so like he'll have his daughter 12 00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:38.479 fill in for I mean, generally I don't let women 13 00:00:38.520 --> 00:00:40.399 cut my hair because I think it's kind of weird 14 00:00:40.399 --> 00:00:43.119 and improper. But I like this dude, and I like 15 00:00:43.159 --> 00:00:47.320 this family, and she does a good job. But she's 16 00:00:47.359 --> 00:00:51.200 about my age and she's like well preserved man. You know, 17 00:00:51.240 --> 00:00:53.439 I'll like Spanish women kind of make everything horny whenever 18 00:00:53.439 --> 00:00:55.960 they need to be, Like she kind of does that, 19 00:00:58.560 --> 00:01:01.920 and uh, I mean obviously like I'm old, So it's 20 00:01:01.960 --> 00:01:04.560 it's not like women follow themselves to sweat me, but 21 00:01:04.840 --> 00:01:07.519 like strippers and old Spanish broads, I seem to like 22 00:01:07.879 --> 00:01:10.159 if I was prone to sin, that'd be my demographic. 23 00:01:10.159 --> 00:01:23.959 It seems like but uh, yeah, it's in the two 24 00:01:24.079 --> 00:01:29.079 things that I've noticed stand out in the count and 25 00:01:29.120 --> 00:01:31.879 see crisis. People don't know how to mix drinks anymore. 26 00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:34.159 There aren't like mixologists, and people know how to cut 27 00:01:34.239 --> 00:01:37.959 hair anymore. One of the reasons I like the Trump 28 00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:41.480 Tower Rooftop Bar. It's not because I I want to 29 00:01:41.480 --> 00:01:43.560 hang around in some property owned by the Rabbi, but 30 00:01:43.680 --> 00:01:47.599 it's actually a really cool hotel. And the rooftop Bar, 31 00:01:47.719 --> 00:01:51.040 They've got some of the best bartenders in Chicago, and 32 00:01:51.079 --> 00:01:53.200 they make really they make a really great dakery. They 33 00:01:53.280 --> 00:01:55.319 changed that. They changed the cocktail menu up a lot, 34 00:01:55.439 --> 00:01:58.560 but in the in the summer months they make a 35 00:01:58.599 --> 00:02:04.959 frozen blue daker. And it's to day for Arthur and 36 00:02:05.040 --> 00:02:07.480 his wife Addison. I will be there. I will be 37 00:02:07.560 --> 00:02:10.039 there and sip I will be there in September. And yeah, 38 00:02:10.080 --> 00:02:14.120 speaking of which, Thomas Wayne Riley hit me up and 39 00:02:14.199 --> 00:02:17.039 uh he's like out in like Cowboy Country and he 40 00:02:17.039 --> 00:02:19.240 said he's gonna come here for my birthday bash too. 41 00:02:19.800 --> 00:02:21.639 This is it's like really blowing up. Man. There's like 42 00:02:21.680 --> 00:02:23.759 a just sort of like a planning committee around it. 43 00:02:23.800 --> 00:02:26.240 And I didn't realize that that makes me feel very 44 00:02:26.439 --> 00:02:29.719 that that makes me feel very happy, man, and it'll 45 00:02:29.759 --> 00:02:33.599 be fun. But also, uh, I'm stalked that people actually 46 00:02:33.599 --> 00:02:35.960 give a fuck about my birthday, Like that's pretty awesome. 47 00:02:36.520 --> 00:02:39.719 But I I'm I'm proud of myself from making it 48 00:02:39.719 --> 00:02:42.560 to fifty years. Like ordinarily that's like a retard flex 49 00:02:42.719 --> 00:02:47.080 like just managing to stay alive. But in my case, uh, 50 00:02:47.120 --> 00:02:50.520 it ain't no small thing, man. So yeah, I want 51 00:02:50.560 --> 00:02:55.599 to I want to have a lot of fun. And 52 00:02:55.639 --> 00:02:58.159 the RiPP Top Bar is always always a blast. And 53 00:02:59.439 --> 00:03:02.199 but I was I was blessed last weekend. Uh Arthur 54 00:03:02.199 --> 00:03:05.520 and his wife had a sore for dinner and uh, 55 00:03:05.759 --> 00:03:10.039 I mean uh Arthur like works as a bartender, so 56 00:03:10.120 --> 00:03:13.240 he like made me some really good martinis and that 57 00:03:13.360 --> 00:03:16.319 become I've become sold on martinis, man, Like I never 58 00:03:16.400 --> 00:03:24.479 I never disliked them, but I uh that restaurant that's 59 00:03:24.599 --> 00:03:28.280 right by the House of Blues and Marina City, well 60 00:03:28.280 --> 00:03:30.879 it's called it like the Tortoise. I think you I'll 61 00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:32.719 get metro front of ours. That's a place that he 62 00:03:32.800 --> 00:03:34.719 really likes, and so he was kind of to take 63 00:03:34.759 --> 00:03:36.960 me there. He's taken me there a couple of times 64 00:03:37.000 --> 00:03:40.120 and the two like signature drinks they have that are incredible, 65 00:03:42.319 --> 00:03:44.039 one of which you got to ask for because it 66 00:03:44.039 --> 00:03:46.400 ain't on the menu. It's like an inside hack. But 67 00:03:47.280 --> 00:03:52.360 they've got Uh, They've got a vodka martini and they 68 00:03:52.479 --> 00:03:57.080 drop a a blue cheese stuffed olive in it, which 69 00:03:57.159 --> 00:04:00.680 is really fine. I don't go for I think it's weird, 70 00:04:01.240 --> 00:04:08.240 but the flavor profile really works with the Vocker martini. Yeah. 71 00:04:08.319 --> 00:04:10.759 I love blue chee I love blue chie so olives, 72 00:04:10.800 --> 00:04:14.240 and they are I've had him before in a in 73 00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:17.279 a sort of martini, not a real martini, And considering 74 00:04:17.639 --> 00:04:21.360 how often I carry a Walter PPK, I really should 75 00:04:21.399 --> 00:04:22.959 be drinking martinis more often. 76 00:04:23.279 --> 00:04:25.639 Well, it's interesting because I was gonna raise that about Bond. 77 00:04:25.720 --> 00:04:30.160 There's a you know, you never ever want to shake 78 00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:34.600 a martini because there's a delicate flavor profile and the 79 00:04:34.639 --> 00:04:38.639 maleafield of martini, if it's mixed properly, is really really silky. 80 00:04:39.879 --> 00:04:42.120 You fuck that up entirely if you shake it. You 81 00:04:42.240 --> 00:04:49.480 never shake a martini. So that's gofy and uh, I 82 00:04:49.519 --> 00:04:51.480 think too. I i'd have to. I got a couple 83 00:04:51.519 --> 00:04:53.560 of Ian Flemick paperbacks. I read a few of them 84 00:04:53.600 --> 00:04:56.120 in high school and one of the few people who 85 00:04:56.160 --> 00:04:58.879 actually really likes Moonraker. Like the movie. I think it's cool. 86 00:04:59.399 --> 00:05:01.319 So when I was when I was like sixteen, I 87 00:05:01.360 --> 00:05:03.639 bought the paper back, which is a lot different than 88 00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:08.199 the movie, but it's still good. But uh, I think 89 00:05:08.240 --> 00:05:11.680 in Moonreak here it makes reference that Bond drinks vodka martinis, 90 00:05:11.959 --> 00:05:16.040 which is weird for uh, like a Britisher, you know, 91 00:05:17.040 --> 00:05:21.399 because uh of a proper martini is is you know, 92 00:05:21.399 --> 00:05:26.040 a gin martini in Jim's the National Spirit of of England. 93 00:05:26.279 --> 00:05:28.519 But Bond is the Bond character is supposed to be 94 00:05:28.560 --> 00:05:32.079 a Scotsman, so maybe maybe that's right. Yeah, And that's 95 00:05:32.160 --> 00:05:37.560 in Casino Royale, he basically what is a Vesper Martini. 96 00:05:37.600 --> 00:05:42.480 It's three measures Gordon's gin, one measure vodka, and half lillet. 97 00:05:43.399 --> 00:05:48.120 So yeah, that's that. Yeah, Yeah, Casino Royal is actually 98 00:05:48.160 --> 00:05:50.800 really good. The rest of those Daniel Craig movies are awful, 99 00:05:51.079 --> 00:05:54.879 but I'm in the minority. My favorite Bond movie of 100 00:05:54.879 --> 00:05:59.439 all time is Licensed to Kill and Uh. Timothy Dalton 101 00:05:59.560 --> 00:06:04.639 is the most true to form Bond character, like Sean Connery, obviously, 102 00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:07.879 he's the most iconic actor to play Bond in the movies. 103 00:06:08.480 --> 00:06:11.480 But Bond is written by Ana Fleming, is like Timothy Dalton. 104 00:06:12.040 --> 00:06:14.319 He's something about He's like, he's like a homicidal maniac 105 00:06:14.959 --> 00:06:20.439 and he's just very very jaded, you know, uh, Intelligence 106 00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:25.480 service assassin. And I thought Timothy Dalton played really well. 107 00:06:25.519 --> 00:06:28.000 And Eliza Gilles Dup it's got a it's got a 108 00:06:28.040 --> 00:06:32.360 young Benicio del Toro. It's it's got like Miami vice vibes. 109 00:06:32.439 --> 00:06:36.199 Because before Bond ends up in Mexico, like taking down 110 00:06:36.240 --> 00:06:39.079 the cartel, and when he gets to Mexico, he's, uh, 111 00:06:39.399 --> 00:06:42.040 he's he's like hanging around Spanish villas in his tuxedo. 112 00:06:42.600 --> 00:06:47.920 But before that he's uh, he's running around Miami dressed 113 00:06:47.959 --> 00:06:52.560 like Sonny Crockett and he's blasting people with uh, with 114 00:06:52.759 --> 00:06:55.959 a mac tenn and stuff, you know, And uh, which 115 00:06:56.000 --> 00:07:01.079 one is that licensed to kill? The What was I 116 00:07:01.160 --> 00:07:05.480 gonna say? Oh? Fucking what did he drive in that? 117 00:07:05.560 --> 00:07:12.480 I can't remember? I can't either. It was uh. I 118 00:07:12.560 --> 00:07:17.959 think the the the featured released for part of an 119 00:07:18.000 --> 00:07:20.959 Acid Murder and MG, I think because I would have 120 00:07:20.959 --> 00:07:22.560 remembered if it was something else. I haven't seen it 121 00:07:22.600 --> 00:07:27.000 in many moons. But that's my favorite Bond movie, but 122 00:07:27.079 --> 00:07:29.720 I don't remember if it was something if it was 123 00:07:29.800 --> 00:07:33.680 something Bond Exotic, i'd remember the grosses to front was 124 00:07:33.720 --> 00:07:36.240 Pierce bros. And then like Bond's an Irish guy who 125 00:07:36.279 --> 00:07:39.120 drives a BMW, the fuck is that might as well 126 00:07:39.160 --> 00:07:42.879 make him a fucking a homo, you know, I like 127 00:07:43.040 --> 00:07:45.399 have him played by like Wesley Snipes and be gay, 128 00:07:45.959 --> 00:07:47.839 you know, like how the Bond can't be fucking Irish. 129 00:07:48.959 --> 00:07:51.240 Like I'm not, I'm not trashing tags. I'm just saying, 130 00:07:51.360 --> 00:07:53.519 like Bond can't be Irish. It'd be like Michael Collins 131 00:07:53.600 --> 00:07:55.959 being a fucking being played by John Cleets, you know, 132 00:07:57.240 --> 00:08:02.560 but said Nego, said Gens, I got Stiphilis from the 133 00:08:02.600 --> 00:08:05.560 Black Ship to be fair, and they like at the 134 00:08:05.639 --> 00:08:09.240 Bond probably is always like packing like frightening organisms and 135 00:08:09.319 --> 00:08:12.199 his balls, considering like how he gets around, like Bond 136 00:08:12.240 --> 00:08:13.639 does a lot of things you really shouldn't be doing 137 00:08:13.680 --> 00:08:16.879 with his penis man like, like I'm not some kind 138 00:08:16.879 --> 00:08:20.279 I'm not I'm not prude, but you know, uh, as 139 00:08:20.319 --> 00:08:21.959 part of like this, as part of as part of 140 00:08:22.040 --> 00:08:24.120 like the Protti team, like I got to condemn Bond 141 00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:25.800 for like acting like a fucking Italian. 142 00:08:25.879 --> 00:08:28.839 It's like, what's wrong with you? We don't do that ship, Yeah, 143 00:08:28.920 --> 00:08:33.320 we don't. The meds they have no self control? 144 00:08:33.360 --> 00:08:35.120 What something? No exactly. I mean that's why you like, 145 00:08:35.279 --> 00:08:39.480 I'm like, because you know, I like a like a 146 00:08:39.600 --> 00:08:42.960 Latin guy, uh, or you know, an Italian guy like 147 00:08:43.000 --> 00:08:44.759 didn't like pussy and didn't like to eat too much. 148 00:08:44.840 --> 00:08:46.679 It'd be like, what's wrong with you? You know, I 149 00:08:46.919 --> 00:08:48.639 rely on them to do that, just like they rely 150 00:08:48.759 --> 00:08:51.639 on me to be like uptight and stuff. But yeah, 151 00:08:51.759 --> 00:08:54.799 Bond definitely is a bon Bond definitely has like some 152 00:08:54.919 --> 00:08:58.080 bad stuff going on below to waste, but you know, 153 00:08:58.600 --> 00:09:03.279 uh yeah. And the Timothy Dalton unfortunately only started in 154 00:09:03.320 --> 00:09:05.840 two movies. The Living Daylights was dope all. So that's 155 00:09:05.879 --> 00:09:10.600 where Bond ends up in Afghanistan, and so one of 156 00:09:10.679 --> 00:09:13.679 the like a framing device, like the last start of 157 00:09:13.759 --> 00:09:16.240 the movie is, you know, the Soviet or in Afghanistan 158 00:09:16.559 --> 00:09:18.799 and he clicks up with the Moushad Dean and stuff. 159 00:09:18.879 --> 00:09:23.879 But Olivia Dabbo, she was She was a real piece 160 00:09:23.919 --> 00:09:27.480 of ass man. She was one of the nicer Bond 161 00:09:27.559 --> 00:09:33.320 girls to look at. But yeah, I uh, I was 162 00:09:33.320 --> 00:09:37.799 always a Timothy Dalton fan Man. He spent in a 163 00:09:37.840 --> 00:09:40.679 lot of strange movies. He was in Flash Gordon, Like 164 00:09:40.759 --> 00:09:43.879 you played like the Tree Prince Guy where you know, 165 00:09:44.000 --> 00:09:48.000 and that's an awesome set piece where you're going to 166 00:09:48.039 --> 00:09:49.960 be part of like the tree Warrior people. You have 167 00:09:50.120 --> 00:09:52.399 like stick your hand in this log and there's this 168 00:09:52.519 --> 00:09:55.519 like pulsating scorpion that stings you and then you die. 169 00:09:56.720 --> 00:10:03.960 Like it's really weird. And at least, uh, when I 170 00:10:04.080 --> 00:10:05.759 was like when I was a little kid, at least 171 00:10:06.120 --> 00:10:08.759 they used to show Flash Gordon all the time on 172 00:10:08.919 --> 00:10:12.360 early cable, so it was on all of those movies. 173 00:10:12.360 --> 00:10:13.759 I just like watch all the times it was on, 174 00:10:15.360 --> 00:10:20.480 and uh, the optics of it are are interesting, like 175 00:10:20.679 --> 00:10:23.279 very European. There's like this one the way that it 176 00:10:23.399 --> 00:10:26.600 pops it it wilds me like Mario Bava's color schemes 177 00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:29.320 or something, you know, like Planet of the Vampires, which 178 00:10:29.360 --> 00:10:31.600 is which is That's an awesome movie. We should watch 179 00:10:31.679 --> 00:10:34.519 it in our movie series, you know, like and there's 180 00:10:35.679 --> 00:10:41.360 shot for shot. There's set pieces that Ridley Scott lifted 181 00:10:41.440 --> 00:10:44.960 for Alien, Like I'm not that's it's a proper homage, 182 00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:51.360 and like Alien is awesome. Aliens is fucking homo. But 183 00:10:51.879 --> 00:10:56.480 alien is awesome. But anyway, the original Flash Gordon movie, 184 00:10:57.799 --> 00:10:59.720 when I was a little kid, they'd still run the 185 00:10:59.759 --> 00:11:04.240 Flag Gordon comic strip in the Chicago Tribune, and uh, 186 00:11:05.759 --> 00:11:09.360 I thought it was cool because it was, uh it 187 00:11:09.519 --> 00:11:13.120 was throwback, but in a linear way. They still had Uh. 188 00:11:13.240 --> 00:11:16.759 I mean, they're probably gonna eighth artist or whatever like 189 00:11:16.919 --> 00:11:19.360 drawing it by then. But you know, he was some 190 00:11:19.519 --> 00:11:22.720 old guy who knew the guy who knew the guy 191 00:11:22.759 --> 00:11:26.120 you knew, the guy who started it in that was 192 00:11:26.200 --> 00:11:27.080 cool when uh. 193 00:11:28.320 --> 00:11:30.399 You know what I didn't realize. I didn't realize how 194 00:11:30.799 --> 00:11:33.279 how old Timothy Dalton is. He's eighty. 195 00:11:33.720 --> 00:11:35.960 Yeah, no, he was. Uh that's one of the reasons 196 00:11:36.759 --> 00:11:41.039 he didn't last his bond, because there was one. Bond. 197 00:11:41.159 --> 00:11:43.519 Pictures are kind of failing at the tail end of 198 00:11:43.559 --> 00:11:45.799 the Roger More era, you know. And then there was 199 00:11:45.840 --> 00:11:49.279 that bizarre situation where Connery started Never Seen Ever Again 200 00:11:49.440 --> 00:11:51.200 the same year, which was like not put up a 201 00:11:51.320 --> 00:11:54.879 United Artists, and then Octapussy was put out by Roger 202 00:11:55.000 --> 00:11:59.960 Moore u A, I mean, and uh, neither one performed 203 00:12:00.399 --> 00:12:04.360 well and Dalton was uh, yeah, he was already in 204 00:12:04.440 --> 00:12:09.200 his forties and then the third picture he was supposed 205 00:12:09.200 --> 00:12:11.440 to do ended up in development hell, and by the 206 00:12:11.480 --> 00:12:14.240 time it got resolved, he was he was too old 207 00:12:14.240 --> 00:12:17.919 to plete bond. But uh and my my sharks fell down, 208 00:12:18.080 --> 00:12:20.240 like I got to I got this shark that keeps 209 00:12:20.279 --> 00:12:28.960 me company up here in the I see, but yeah, 210 00:12:29.039 --> 00:12:34.559 he what was I gonna say? Uh And mister Shark's 211 00:12:34.600 --> 00:12:39.679 got a chill here because he doesn't fit. But no, 212 00:12:39.759 --> 00:12:42.879 and it was cool. Uh I guess I guess like 213 00:12:43.000 --> 00:12:46.360 some I guess some of the comic strips are still going, 214 00:12:46.480 --> 00:12:48.440 but they're you know, they're just I got on line 215 00:12:48.559 --> 00:12:54.440 wasn't the same, you know, And uh I remember my 216 00:12:54.559 --> 00:12:57.759 favorite comic strip was Shoe because like shit libs read 217 00:12:57.840 --> 00:13:00.960 Duonsbury well like based people, right, Shoe that was the 218 00:13:01.000 --> 00:13:04.159 way I throw down. And Shoe was hilarious because it's 219 00:13:04.159 --> 00:13:07.200 all about birds for no reason. It's like everybody's just 220 00:13:07.240 --> 00:13:14.000 like an anthem bird. And I, uh I try and 221 00:13:14.120 --> 00:13:18.120 uh I try and turn youngsters onto Shoe who are 222 00:13:18.159 --> 00:13:23.399 into you know, comics, like politically coded comics, and uh that, 223 00:13:23.639 --> 00:13:27.759 uh Family Circus was hilarious too. My pastor he'd uh, 224 00:13:28.759 --> 00:13:32.279 he'd literally cite like Family Circus periodically he was like 225 00:13:32.279 --> 00:13:35.480 a humorless man. But Family Circus was like the Calvinist 226 00:13:35.519 --> 00:13:37.759 comic strip. So of course I was deliberately not funny. 227 00:13:41.240 --> 00:13:43.600 I know, that was I gotta. When I was in 228 00:13:43.679 --> 00:13:47.720 high school, I got a chuckle out of bloom County. Yeah, yeah, 229 00:13:48.720 --> 00:13:52.360 and uh Fred Bassett was pretty funny too, like in 230 00:13:52.480 --> 00:13:57.799 subtly weird ways. I uh, the one uh, the one 231 00:13:57.879 --> 00:13:59.960 kind of internet comic strip I do like, I mean, 232 00:14:00.000 --> 00:14:02.799 it's were like a rift than like an ip unto himself, 233 00:14:02.879 --> 00:14:07.159 but the Jersey villic in the day Garfield without Garfield. 234 00:14:07.960 --> 00:14:11.279 It's like Garfield comic strips, but Garfield is removed, so 235 00:14:11.360 --> 00:14:14.399 it seems like really weird. It's either like John Arbuca 236 00:14:14.519 --> 00:14:17.200 like talking to himself like an insane person, or like 237 00:14:17.320 --> 00:14:20.919 shit just happening that seems like existentially disturbing for weird reasons. 238 00:14:21.840 --> 00:14:24.720 It's pretty awesome. It's like, wait, way better than the 239 00:14:25.480 --> 00:14:30.879 way better than the like the actual Garfield strip. But no, 240 00:14:31.000 --> 00:14:33.360 it was, uh, you know, it's surprisingly you know, it's 241 00:14:33.360 --> 00:14:35.360 pretty dope, man, like believe it or not. Until I 242 00:14:35.480 --> 00:14:40.120 was in high school, i'd follow in the Tribune. The 243 00:14:40.200 --> 00:14:43.879 Spider Man comic strip was totally different than like the 244 00:14:44.000 --> 00:14:47.000 comic book and like the only books that the only 245 00:14:47.080 --> 00:14:48.879 comic books I read. I was a huge fan of 246 00:14:49.000 --> 00:14:52.679 dark Horse comics, like the Terminator. Dark Horse comic was awesome. 247 00:14:54.399 --> 00:14:56.799 Dead World. You know Vince Locke, he's the guy who 248 00:14:56.799 --> 00:14:59.519 does all the Cannibal Corpse cover art, which is like 249 00:14:59.759 --> 00:15:05.159 really really raw. He did this book called Dead World 250 00:15:06.120 --> 00:15:11.320 and uh, some sort of interdimensional eighty gets torn open, 251 00:15:12.279 --> 00:15:15.120 and uh, these legions of the dead pour in. But 252 00:15:15.159 --> 00:15:18.600 they're not like Romero zombies or or something or anything 253 00:15:18.639 --> 00:15:22.120 like that. They're like intelligent beings and they create this 254 00:15:22.440 --> 00:15:24.600 like Kingdom of the Dead on Earth, and they enslave 255 00:15:24.679 --> 00:15:27.360 the living and like they eat them too, but they 256 00:15:27.960 --> 00:15:30.639 they make them into they basically like fire them like 257 00:15:30.759 --> 00:15:37.080 cattle and stuff. And I'd read that one, and uh, 258 00:15:37.200 --> 00:15:42.480 of course, uh, two thousand and eight D you know, 259 00:15:42.600 --> 00:15:45.679 Judge Dread was great. I think most people associated with 260 00:15:48.559 --> 00:15:50.919 the silly in the in America, he's the silly es 261 00:15:50.960 --> 00:15:54.200 stalone movie. But the real two thousand and eight D 262 00:15:54.399 --> 00:15:58.440 comic was where a movie was hardware. That's a great film, man, 263 00:15:59.159 --> 00:16:02.399 We gotta watch that on our movie series two. But 264 00:16:02.559 --> 00:16:06.279 then in the defense of the stallone Dread movie. It's 265 00:16:06.320 --> 00:16:09.879 like a growth miscast. But the set pieces are awesome, 266 00:16:11.039 --> 00:16:15.679 and like the ABC Warrior is awesome, and the set 267 00:16:15.759 --> 00:16:18.480 piece is uh, you know the scene where like Armanda 268 00:16:18.600 --> 00:16:23.200 Sante he goes to the pawn shop to pick up 269 00:16:23.480 --> 00:16:26.799 the lawgiver and then he like blows away the pawnbroker 270 00:16:26.840 --> 00:16:31.120 and he activates the ABC robot. But that scene where 271 00:16:31.120 --> 00:16:34.000 he's walking on the street, you know that's all. There's 272 00:16:34.000 --> 00:16:38.480 no CGI in that. There's like a matte painting obviously, 273 00:16:38.879 --> 00:16:39.879 you know, if you know what to look for, we 274 00:16:39.919 --> 00:16:42.240 can tell. But it looks pretty seamless and there's like 275 00:16:42.320 --> 00:16:47.559 one hundred extras and crazy costumes, and that's probably the 276 00:16:47.679 --> 00:16:51.919 best cyberpunk city scape you know, this side of Blade Runner. 277 00:16:52.120 --> 00:16:54.039 You know that film does have some things going for it. 278 00:16:54.600 --> 00:16:56.600 I remember I saw it on the big screen and 279 00:16:57.240 --> 00:16:59.440 on the one as of the huge Dread fan, I'm like, okay, 280 00:16:59.519 --> 00:17:01.399 this this is this ship. But on the other hand, 281 00:17:01.440 --> 00:17:05.119 I'm like, but you know, these optics are great. What 282 00:17:05.359 --> 00:17:09.559 was your what's your take on like Germo del Toro, 283 00:17:11.720 --> 00:17:13.559 I don't have I know that people have been giving 284 00:17:13.640 --> 00:17:17.079 high praise to is Frankenstein movie that just came out. 285 00:17:17.079 --> 00:17:20.559 I haven't seen it, though, I'm reluctant. Uh, Like, what 286 00:17:20.720 --> 00:17:22.519 specifically remind me of what you read? 287 00:17:22.839 --> 00:17:26.519 Did you read the Strain the String book with Carlton? 288 00:17:26.759 --> 00:17:33.079 With you did with Hogan's Familiar with They also did 289 00:17:33.119 --> 00:17:35.920 a FX mini series on it. Well, it was an 290 00:17:36.039 --> 00:17:38.400 FX multi they did for like four or five years. 291 00:17:39.039 --> 00:17:42.400 It's one of the more interesting takes on, like the vamporism. 292 00:17:42.880 --> 00:17:48.920 Okay, did uh did uh? Did Gerritaltoro collaborate with Robert? 293 00:17:48.960 --> 00:17:50.680 Where you guys are thinking of somebody else? 294 00:17:54.079 --> 00:17:58.160 That's a good question, my huh. I mean just watching 295 00:17:58.480 --> 00:17:59.119 that this. 296 00:17:59.240 --> 00:18:02.039 Is on my mind them because the other day I 297 00:18:02.119 --> 00:18:06.799 was watching From Dusk Till Dawn and like, I I've 298 00:18:06.799 --> 00:18:10.119 always really liked that movie Juliet Lewis. I was thought, 299 00:18:10.200 --> 00:18:14.440 Julia Lewis is really beautiful. She looks a lot like 300 00:18:14.519 --> 00:18:17.559 our friend NESSA believe it or not, I mean necessary 301 00:18:17.599 --> 00:18:22.240 pretty too. But they're uh, it's like I'm not just 302 00:18:22.319 --> 00:18:25.200 saying that, like it's uh, she looks a lot likeer, 303 00:18:25.240 --> 00:18:31.200 which is funny, but uh, what's her name? Selma hayak In? 304 00:18:31.279 --> 00:18:35.200 That is it looks amazing. Speaking of Spanish, brou. 305 00:18:35.200 --> 00:18:43.079 Apparently apparently Gama Gamma del Toro and Robert Rodriguez collaborated 306 00:18:43.119 --> 00:18:43.720 on Mimic. 307 00:18:44.599 --> 00:18:49.119 Yeah, that's right. That's a weird movie, man. That's it's 308 00:18:49.359 --> 00:18:53.559 that's actually a better creature feature than most. I thought 309 00:18:54.200 --> 00:18:57.000 it's gross because you know, it's it's these like corporal 310 00:18:57.039 --> 00:19:00.359 figia bugs like these like mega cockroach is you know. 311 00:19:01.240 --> 00:19:07.839 And there's that scene where like in the subway they breach. 312 00:19:07.880 --> 00:19:11.200 I guess what's like the cockroach nest and there's this 313 00:19:11.359 --> 00:19:16.880 humans and like, I really hate cockroaches. This property I 314 00:19:17.000 --> 00:19:21.799 worked at had an infestation because there was this gym 315 00:19:21.920 --> 00:19:25.839 and the basement, but it was also a residential premises 316 00:19:25.920 --> 00:19:30.200 on the upper floors and we shared this storage area 317 00:19:31.119 --> 00:19:38.359 and one time they came pouring out of the walls. 318 00:19:38.440 --> 00:19:41.440 It was like in that Creepshow segment or something. And 319 00:19:41.599 --> 00:19:47.079 like cockroaches, I'm not generally screamingshew bugs, but your mind's 320 00:19:47.119 --> 00:19:51.039 like hardwired to find them totally repulsive. Like roaches, they're awful. 321 00:19:51.759 --> 00:19:56.799 But in that mimic film, close to the climax where 322 00:19:57.359 --> 00:20:00.680 they're in the subway and you know the mimic, Uh, 323 00:20:00.839 --> 00:20:02.759 it's a mimic because it's like found a way to 324 00:20:04.079 --> 00:20:09.119 you know, some predators develop like a pigmentation pattern or something, 325 00:20:09.279 --> 00:20:11.960 so they look like something else. Well, his mimic like 326 00:20:12.039 --> 00:20:14.039 looks like a person then like opens up and it's 327 00:20:14.039 --> 00:20:17.279 like this disgusting roach and it's like, oh my god. 328 00:20:19.599 --> 00:20:22.519 Yeah that was pretty cool. What about it? Kind of like, 329 00:20:22.720 --> 00:20:25.359 go ahead? What about Splice? What did you think? What 330 00:20:25.440 --> 00:20:29.279 did you think of that movie? I can't remember it Adrian. 331 00:20:29.039 --> 00:20:30.880 Brady and Sarah Polly. 332 00:20:32.000 --> 00:20:34.920 I don't think I've seen it. I've seen Oh, it's 333 00:20:35.400 --> 00:20:37.519 just the film house. Thinking of that kind of reminded 334 00:20:37.519 --> 00:20:39.400 me of the cock Roast movie. 335 00:20:40.160 --> 00:20:44.200 You do you know the Italian Well, he's I mean 336 00:20:44.240 --> 00:20:47.519 he's American Italian Vincenzo Natalie. 337 00:20:48.119 --> 00:20:51.880 I think so Cube Cipher. Yeah, Cub's awesome. I just 338 00:20:52.000 --> 00:20:55.599 I just linked that the other day on the Burdon 339 00:20:56.200 --> 00:20:57.559 beaver Gang channel. 340 00:20:57.880 --> 00:21:02.680 Yeah. Yeah, Splice is about they try to do create 341 00:21:02.839 --> 00:21:07.359 hybrids and it just it goes way fucking south and. 342 00:21:07.359 --> 00:21:10.240 Gets Oh yeah, yeah, I've seen it, but I'm familiar 343 00:21:10.279 --> 00:21:18.440 with it. Yeah, yeah, it's a yeah. But I that 344 00:21:20.079 --> 00:21:23.000 Robert Robert Rodriguez was in my mind because from Dusk 345 00:21:23.079 --> 00:21:26.640 Fell Dawn and that's uh that's a great movie. I 346 00:21:26.720 --> 00:21:32.440 actually think Quentin Tarantino actually has pretty decent acting shops 347 00:21:33.279 --> 00:21:39.039 And I remember, uh, when I saw that movie. I 348 00:21:39.119 --> 00:21:44.720 saw it on cable for some reason. It wasn't really 349 00:21:44.759 --> 00:21:50.519 on my radar when it hit theaters. But uh, in 350 00:21:50.599 --> 00:21:52.559 the first half of that movie, you think it's just 351 00:21:52.640 --> 00:21:55.279 like a heist movie, and I'm like, okay, like there's 352 00:21:55.279 --> 00:21:57.960 a movie about he's like a high incident bandits and 353 00:21:58.000 --> 00:21:59.960 this dude's brother is like a psycho when he's trying 354 00:21:59.960 --> 00:22:03.200 to hold it together. Then suddenly there's like, uh, like 355 00:22:03.319 --> 00:22:06.759 like vampires everywhere, and it's it's like I took work. 356 00:22:07.039 --> 00:22:09.400 Yeah, I knew what it was going to be, and 357 00:22:09.480 --> 00:22:12.119 I took my ex wife to it, and well not 358 00:22:12.240 --> 00:22:14.519 my ex wife actually was my girlfriend at the time. 359 00:22:15.359 --> 00:22:15.839 It wasn't. 360 00:22:15.920 --> 00:22:18.960 This was way back and she's just sitting there, has 361 00:22:19.079 --> 00:22:21.359 no idea.
