<v Speaker 3>Live everywhere on the iHeart App. I am Mark Ronner.

7
00:00:32.719 --> 00:00:35.960
<v Speaker 3>It's the Runner Report. We're gonna talk about Mickey seventeen

8
00:00:36.039 --> 00:00:38.920
<v Speaker 3>opening this weekend. You know, there's a nineteen sixty five

9
00:00:39.000 --> 00:00:42.560
<v Speaker 3>movie with Warren Batty called Mickey One. Oh crap, did

10
00:00:42.560 --> 00:00:45.439
<v Speaker 3>I miss Mickey's two through sixteen? Catching up on those

11
00:00:45.479 --> 00:00:47.399
<v Speaker 3>would be about as tedious as catching up on The

12
00:00:47.439 --> 00:00:51.320
<v Speaker 3>Fast and Furious or Transformer movies. Twala, But I checked

13
00:00:51.320 --> 00:00:53.840
<v Speaker 3>IMDb and I'm in luck I didn't have to catch

14
00:00:53.920 --> 00:00:57.280
<v Speaker 3>up on fifteen Mickeys that I missed. In Mickey One,

15
00:00:57.399 --> 00:00:59.240
<v Speaker 3>Warren Batty plays a guy who goes on the run

16
00:00:59.280 --> 00:01:02.920
<v Speaker 3>from mobsters and hides in another city. In Mickey seventeen,

17
00:01:03.079 --> 00:01:05.799
<v Speaker 3>Robert Pattinson plays a guy on the run from mobsters

18
00:01:05.879 --> 00:01:09.040
<v Speaker 3>and hides on a big spaceship. See completely different, glad.

19
00:01:09.079 --> 00:01:11.159
<v Speaker 3>I checked. Here's the trailer, and we're gonna listen to

20
00:01:11.239 --> 00:01:12.840
<v Speaker 3>a little more than usual because there's a lot of

21
00:01:12.879 --> 00:01:14.920
<v Speaker 3>exposition in this one.

22
00:01:16.200 --> 00:01:18.439
<v Speaker 2>Hi, Nicky, are you experiencing a new versigo?

23
00:01:20.200 --> 00:01:26.760
<v Speaker 4>I guess I am Robert Patinson in space. Oh wow,

24
00:01:26.879 --> 00:01:29.719
<v Speaker 4>did you see that? And a meteorite takes off his

25
00:01:29.799 --> 00:01:30.560
<v Speaker 4>hand and his toes.

26
00:01:30.959 --> 00:01:33.560
<v Speaker 3>I wouldn't be surprised if you're thinking at this point,

27
00:01:34.120 --> 00:01:34.879
<v Speaker 3>what have I done?

28
00:01:35.319 --> 00:01:35.519
<v Speaker 5>Oh?

29
00:01:35.719 --> 00:01:37.200
<v Speaker 4>God?

30
00:01:37.959 --> 00:01:40.680
<v Speaker 3>Nothing was working out and I wanted to get off

31
00:01:40.719 --> 00:01:41.040
<v Speaker 3>of EIRs.

32
00:01:41.239 --> 00:01:43.840
<v Speaker 4>You're planning to be inexpendable. Yeah, you read through the

33
00:01:43.840 --> 00:01:44.680
<v Speaker 4>whole application.

34
00:01:46.640 --> 00:01:50.120
<v Speaker 1>Once you die, would print a new version of your body.

35
00:01:50.239 --> 00:01:51.319
<v Speaker 4>I should have read through it.

36
00:01:53.599 --> 00:01:55.959
<v Speaker 3>They made me work my ass off on one mission

37
00:01:56.000 --> 00:01:56.640
<v Speaker 3>after another.

38
00:01:56.799 --> 00:01:59.719
<v Speaker 5>Every time you die, we learned something new that humanity

39
00:01:59.799 --> 00:02:00.719
<v Speaker 5>move school.

40
00:02:00.400 --> 00:02:16.120
<v Speaker 2>Would Yeah, he's a light fish. Fine, fine, fine, biggie.

41
00:02:16.400 --> 00:02:17.719
<v Speaker 5>It's not looking very good for you.

42
00:02:19.319 --> 00:02:22.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. I'm sure you're used to it by now, But what's.

43
00:02:22.759 --> 00:02:23.759
<v Speaker 5>It if you like to die?

44
00:02:25.159 --> 00:02:39.960
<v Speaker 3>Even on my seventeenth go around, I hate dying. He

45
00:02:40.080 --> 00:02:43.840
<v Speaker 3>just saw a duplicate of himself. That's how we'd all react.

46
00:02:44.719 --> 00:02:49.560
<v Speaker 2>In the case of multiples, we exterminate every individual permanent deletion.

47
00:02:50.039 --> 00:02:55.319
<v Speaker 1>Not for me, let's blow up the second hand blooney voice.

48
00:02:58.520 --> 00:03:00.439
<v Speaker 5>Well, don't you guys do rough papers and then we'll

49
00:03:00.479 --> 00:03:01.240
<v Speaker 5>just shoot the wizard.

50
00:03:20.039 --> 00:03:21.639
<v Speaker 4>We had to at least let the song play.

51
00:03:21.639 --> 00:03:24.800
<v Speaker 3>Mickey seventeen is from South Korean filmmaker Bong June Hoe.

52
00:03:25.159 --> 00:03:27.560
<v Speaker 3>The director of Parasite, which everyone loved, cleaned up at

53
00:03:27.599 --> 00:03:30.039
<v Speaker 3>the Oscars in twenty twenty, and this is his first

54
00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:34.280
<v Speaker 3>movie since then. It's a science fiction satire with abundant

55
00:03:34.360 --> 00:03:38.599
<v Speaker 3>commentary on class, politics, religion, and how we treat everyone

56
00:03:38.680 --> 00:03:42.719
<v Speaker 3>and everything that's not exactly like us, and Mickey shows

57
00:03:43.719 --> 00:03:46.599
<v Speaker 3>he signs onto a space voyage as a low class expendable,

58
00:03:46.599 --> 00:03:48.680
<v Speaker 3>which you heard in the trailer. Since we ended the

59
00:03:48.719 --> 00:03:51.360
<v Speaker 3>draft in the US, the military has been known as

60
00:03:51.400 --> 00:03:54.199
<v Speaker 3>our employer of last resort. But Mickey's got it even rougher.

61
00:03:54.439 --> 00:03:57.199
<v Speaker 3>He does all the lousy jobs that get him killed,

62
00:03:57.240 --> 00:03:59.639
<v Speaker 3>and then a new body's printed for him, and his

63
00:03:59.719 --> 00:04:02.000
<v Speaker 3>store memories are put into the new body, and by

64
00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:04.000
<v Speaker 3>the time we get to the seventeenth one, things start

65
00:04:04.000 --> 00:04:08.240
<v Speaker 3>going haywire on a big space colonization mission. Now, I

66
00:04:08.240 --> 00:04:09.759
<v Speaker 3>got to admit a couple of things up front. I

67
00:04:09.800 --> 00:04:12.840
<v Speaker 3>despise time loop movies or anything similar, any kind of

68
00:04:12.879 --> 00:04:16.399
<v Speaker 3>groundhog Day or clone stuff about the only tolerable one

69
00:04:16.399 --> 00:04:18.279
<v Speaker 3>that I can even think of is the tom Cruise

70
00:04:18.319 --> 00:04:20.560
<v Speaker 3>one called Edge of Tomorrow from about ten years ago,

71
00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:25.360
<v Speaker 3>and even that's borderline. Also not a huge r pat groupie.

72
00:04:25.399 --> 00:04:28.319
<v Speaker 3>Not into the sparkly vampires. I like the Batman movie

73
00:04:28.519 --> 00:04:31.560
<v Speaker 3>was in, but not him as Batman so much. That said,

74
00:04:32.040 --> 00:04:34.439
<v Speaker 3>if you wonder whether Pattinson can do more than sulk,

75
00:04:34.519 --> 00:04:36.680
<v Speaker 3>he did a movie with the Safty Brothers called Good

76
00:04:36.680 --> 00:04:38.920
<v Speaker 3>Time You Can Catch and I think I'm the only

77
00:04:38.959 --> 00:04:42.519
<v Speaker 3>living defender of him in David Cronenberg's Cosmopolis, possibly also

78
00:04:42.639 --> 00:04:46.560
<v Speaker 3>the only person to have seen Cosmopolis here as Mickey.

79
00:04:46.600 --> 00:04:49.040
<v Speaker 3>As you heard in the trailer, he's taken on this irritating,

80
00:04:49.160 --> 00:04:52.839
<v Speaker 3>cartoonish ratso rizzo type of voice that nearly wrecks the movie.

81
00:04:52.839 --> 00:04:53.279
<v Speaker 4>Honestly.

82
00:04:53.920 --> 00:04:56.920
<v Speaker 3>Other performances are so broad and cartoonish that they kind

83
00:04:56.920 --> 00:04:59.480
<v Speaker 3>of pull you out of things, particularly Mark Ruffalo as

84
00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:03.959
<v Speaker 3>the ship cult leader and commander and boss and rich guy.

85
00:05:04.399 --> 00:05:06.720
<v Speaker 3>And Tony Kalette is his wife who's obsessed with making

86
00:05:06.800 --> 00:05:09.399
<v Speaker 3>sauces out of everything. I mean, who isn't though we

87
00:05:09.439 --> 00:05:12.959
<v Speaker 3>all like a good sauce, am I right? Mo? Although yes,

88
00:05:13.040 --> 00:05:15.839
<v Speaker 3>you love you would you would cut a bee for

89
00:05:15.920 --> 00:05:21.839
<v Speaker 3>some sauce. All that said, Mickey seventeen is an odd,

90
00:05:22.000 --> 00:05:24.600
<v Speaker 3>great looking movie that doesn't quite give you what you

91
00:05:24.680 --> 00:05:27.240
<v Speaker 3>expect from the trailer and comes from an actual artist

92
00:05:27.240 --> 00:05:28.639
<v Speaker 3>who you know is going to bring a little extra

93
00:05:28.680 --> 00:05:31.000
<v Speaker 3>to the table. In tone, it reminded me a bit

94
00:05:31.040 --> 00:05:33.240
<v Speaker 3>of his snow Piercer movie from a few years back.

95
00:05:33.759 --> 00:05:37.279
<v Speaker 3>But that's actually been eleven years since that movie came out,

96
00:05:37.519 --> 00:05:40.720
<v Speaker 3>and I haven't divided eleven years by fifths of vodka.

97
00:05:40.800 --> 00:05:42.759
<v Speaker 3>But let's just say I don't remember that as well

98
00:05:42.800 --> 00:05:46.160
<v Speaker 3>as I'd like the movie. This movie, Mickey seventeen, is

99
00:05:46.199 --> 00:05:49.399
<v Speaker 3>two hours and seventeen minutes, and the way it's paced,

100
00:05:49.480 --> 00:05:51.560
<v Speaker 3>you can feel it. It can drag, But I think

101
00:05:51.600 --> 00:05:53.920
<v Speaker 3>sometimes that's a trade off you make when you're getting

102
00:05:53.920 --> 00:05:57.519
<v Speaker 3>something that isn't just a product or content from an

103
00:05:57.519 --> 00:06:01.240
<v Speaker 3>original like Bong June Ho. I would turn those Doge

104
00:06:01.360 --> 00:06:03.480
<v Speaker 3>Butcher's loose cutting this one. I mean, would you tell

105
00:06:03.560 --> 00:06:05.279
<v Speaker 3>Kubrick he could stand a kind of minute or two

106
00:06:05.319 --> 00:06:08.959
<v Speaker 3>out of Barry Linden. No, For the most part, movies

107
00:06:09.000 --> 00:06:14.519
<v Speaker 3>about Clones, Blade Runner, Replicants and the like, those are

108
00:06:14.560 --> 00:06:16.879
<v Speaker 3>commentaries about who counts as a full human being, and

109
00:06:16.879 --> 00:06:20.120
<v Speaker 3>who doesn't doesn't take a code breaking genius to apply

110
00:06:20.199 --> 00:06:22.120
<v Speaker 3>that kind of sci fi to our lives right now,

111
00:06:22.120 --> 00:06:26.199
<v Speaker 3>whether we're talking about immigrants, homeless, trans people, anyone non white,

112
00:06:26.240 --> 00:06:29.560
<v Speaker 3>or whoever happens to be the punching down target doujour.

113
00:06:30.079 --> 00:06:33.079
<v Speaker 3>I don't think Bong June Hose strikes out much bold

114
00:06:33.120 --> 00:06:36.480
<v Speaker 3>new territory with Mickey, But the inhabitants of the alien

115
00:06:36.480 --> 00:06:39.240
<v Speaker 3>planet are pretty fun. They're like Tarti grades acrossed with

116
00:06:39.279 --> 00:06:43.680
<v Speaker 3>buffaloes as well as a giant set of knuckles. The

117
00:06:43.720 --> 00:06:45.879
<v Speaker 3>movie's a mixed bag, but it's got more to like

118
00:06:45.920 --> 00:06:47.839
<v Speaker 3>than dislike, and I'll put up with more for a

119
00:06:47.879 --> 00:06:49.800
<v Speaker 3>movie that isn't just more of the same assembly line

120
00:06:49.839 --> 00:06:52.759
<v Speaker 3>save the cat formula garbage. But if there were two

121
00:06:52.759 --> 00:06:55.199
<v Speaker 3>of me sitting there, one of us might have dozed

122
00:06:55.199 --> 00:06:57.879
<v Speaker 3>off in a couple spots before we went off afterward

123
00:06:57.920 --> 00:06:59.720
<v Speaker 3>and looked for someone for a three way. And yes,

124
00:06:59.759 --> 00:07:01.920
<v Speaker 3>that come up in the movie. That does come up

125
00:07:01.959 --> 00:07:05.680
<v Speaker 3>in the movie, so to speak. Weirdly, if there were

126
00:07:05.680 --> 00:07:08.399
<v Speaker 3>two of most sitting here, they'd still get the same

127
00:07:08.480 --> 00:07:11.160
<v Speaker 3>number of rim shots. And I'm gonna leave that to

128
00:07:11.319 --> 00:07:14.360
<v Speaker 3>science to explain. That's your runner report, Moe, what do

129
00:07:14.399 --> 00:07:14.879
<v Speaker 3>you think of that?

130
00:07:15.240 --> 00:07:18.319
<v Speaker 5>Well, first, I'm going to say that I fully disagree

131
00:07:18.319 --> 00:07:21.000
<v Speaker 5>with you about time loop movies. I actually happen to

132
00:07:21.120 --> 00:07:22.600
<v Speaker 5>like time loop movies. And I was getting ready to

133
00:07:22.600 --> 00:07:25.120
<v Speaker 5>interrupt you. But did you saved yourself when you said

134
00:07:25.600 --> 00:07:26.319
<v Speaker 5>Edge of Tomorrow?

135
00:07:26.439 --> 00:07:26.639
<v Speaker 4>Yeah?

136
00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:28.399
<v Speaker 3>They changed the title of it because I think that

137
00:07:28.439 --> 00:07:32.160
<v Speaker 3>title lived. I repeat, yeah, it sounded like a soap opera,

138
00:07:32.199 --> 00:07:35.240
<v Speaker 3>didn't it. Well, I actually hope they do a sequel

139
00:07:35.240 --> 00:07:36.600
<v Speaker 3>to that movie on sub level.

140
00:07:36.439 --> 00:07:40.600
<v Speaker 4>Or like Johnny Carson's Edge of Wetness? Do you remember that? Vaguely?

141
00:07:41.040 --> 00:07:45.480
<v Speaker 4>Vaguely it was the fake Sopra on his show.

142
00:07:46.600 --> 00:07:51.680
<v Speaker 3>I was I wasn't always one hundred percent into this,

143
00:07:51.839 --> 00:07:54.120
<v Speaker 3>but there's enough good that it outweighs the bad, and

144
00:07:54.720 --> 00:07:56.720
<v Speaker 3>I think it's well worth your time seeing.

145
00:07:56.839 --> 00:07:58.600
<v Speaker 5>Well worth Well, okay, that's high praise.

146
00:07:59.319 --> 00:08:03.319
<v Speaker 4>All right, Well, nothing's perfect. I mean, look at phush.

147
00:08:03.720 --> 00:08:05.040
<v Speaker 4>Oh gosh, that.

148
00:08:05.040 --> 00:08:06.240
<v Speaker 5>Was uncalled for a You got to give him a

149
00:08:06.279 --> 00:08:08.079
<v Speaker 5>rum shot for insulting you like that.

150
00:08:08.160 --> 00:08:10.319
<v Speaker 3>Well, I think that would be the humble thing of

151
00:08:10.399 --> 00:08:14.879
