1
00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:08,599
Speaker 1: Hellllo, ladies and gentlemen, Welcome to an extremely rare, extremely

2
00:00:08,679 --> 00:00:14,880
special solo episode solo review. I am your one and

3
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:18,320
only host, Kirkland Patzer. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, tonight we

4
00:00:18,359 --> 00:00:22,039
are going to be making history. I have never done

5
00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:25,399
a solo cast ever in the history of the podcast.

6
00:00:25,519 --> 00:00:28,800
It's yeah. I've been doing this for almost a decade now,

7
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:31,039
and I've never been the only person behind the mic.

8
00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:35,520
I'm gonna get into the details of what we're covering tonight,

9
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:38,280
but first off, there might be some questions out there.

10
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:41,759
You might be wondering why I'm here alone? Where are

11
00:00:41,799 --> 00:00:45,439
the other lads. If you saw the title of this episode,

12
00:00:45,679 --> 00:00:47,799
you of course know that we're here going to be

13
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:51,640
talking about a I don't even know if it's much anticipated,

14
00:00:51,679 --> 00:00:55,399
but apparently it's an oscar you know, buzz movie in

15
00:00:55,479 --> 00:00:58,479
the works September five is what we'll be talking about.

16
00:01:00,159 --> 00:01:03,359
We get into that. I just want to first and

much all of our listeners, but super special thanks go

34
00:02:03,959 --> 00:02:08,080
out to our Patreon producers because this is where we're

35
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:11,360
an independently ran podcast, and you know, typically there's more

36
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:16,479
than just me here, but yeah, we definitely appreciate all

37
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:18,240
your sport, and the more you support the channel, the

38
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:23,199
more movies we can review, more newscasts we can release,

39
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:24,759
and just more content across the board that we can

40
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:28,319
release for you. And yeah, maybe maybe if we have

41
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:29,719
more patrons, it won't be the only one here. No,

42
00:02:29,759 --> 00:02:32,759
I'm kidding. There's many different reasons why I'm the only

43
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,800
one here, and but yeah no, let's let's let's get

44
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,000
back to the questions that we are gonna be asking

45
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:42,199
ourselves today, like why I'm alone? Why I even saw

46
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,599
this movie in the first place, Because if you're a

47
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:48,520
regular listener to our newscast or anything like that, you

48
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:51,280
definitely would never have heard me ever mentioned this movie,

49
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:53,960
let alone doing a review for it, let alone doing

50
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:55,960
a solo review. I thought that maybe the day would

51
00:02:55,960 --> 00:03:02,039
come and one day I'm doing a solo newscast, But yeah,

52
00:03:02,199 --> 00:03:07,639
no that or sorry, solo movie review. But and maybe

53
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:09,639
if it was a solo movie review, it would be

54
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:14,800
something that maybe I'm a lot more passionate about compared

55
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:18,680
to like our other other members that I'm normally with.

56
00:03:20,039 --> 00:03:23,280
Like let's say, if it's I don't know, happened to

57
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,960
be a random like dragon Ball movie comes out and

58
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,039
I just really feel passionate about I want to do

59
00:03:28,159 --> 00:03:31,719
a solo review for or maybe I don't know, if

60
00:03:31,719 --> 00:03:34,479
they ever do an arcane movie and I'm the only

61
00:03:34,479 --> 00:03:35,960
one that that happened to see and maybe I'm doing

62
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,599
a solo review for that. But you know, stuff that's

63
00:03:38,639 --> 00:03:43,599
normally in my wheelhouse, normal normally in my just things

64
00:03:43,759 --> 00:03:48,520
I'm more affiliated with than a I guess it's a

65
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:53,039
thriller drama that we got here this evening. But no,

66
00:03:53,479 --> 00:03:54,960
let let me get to the story on why this

67
00:03:55,039 --> 00:03:58,840
even happened. So, and I should say, I will get

68
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:00,919
to the review if you if you're here year just

69
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:05,800
for the review of September five, I will get there.

70
00:04:05,919 --> 00:04:07,919
I maybe will leave you a little time stamp if

71
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,120
you really want to hear my thoughts on the critical

72
00:04:10,159 --> 00:04:13,039
aspects of me judging this film and just what I

73
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,319
really thought about it. But I think this episode is

74
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:18,199
going to be a lot more special if I actually

75
00:04:18,199 --> 00:04:20,040
give you the context as to why I'm even here.

76
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:25,160
So without further ado, let's let's just get into the tail. So, yes,

77
00:04:25,319 --> 00:04:29,120
I kriklm Patzer. I've never even heard of this movie

78
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,759
until today. Honestly, when I woke up this morning, I

79
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,279
did not think I was even going in the movies tonight, So,

80
00:04:36,319 --> 00:04:37,959
you know, to break the fourth wall, we had a

81
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:43,360
news schedule, oh sorry, a newscast scheduled, and that was

82
00:04:43,399 --> 00:04:47,120
supposed to be myself, Dylan Muss taylor Field, that newscast

83
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,160
is still going to be coming. Don't feel like we're

84
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:50,879
you know, there's lots of stuff to be talking about.

85
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:55,720
We'll be covering I believe tomorrow will is when we're

86
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:59,560
going to be recording that episode. But no, h taylor

87
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:04,399
Field and I got wind that they're through the Landmark Cinemas.

88
00:05:04,399 --> 00:05:06,839
That's just the company that's one of the movie companies

89
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,920
that we have here in our neck of the woods.

90
00:05:10,879 --> 00:05:14,360
They do these mystery movie Mondays. And the big deal

91
00:05:14,399 --> 00:05:18,000
with these mystery movie Mondays is, like the name suggests,

92
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,000
it's a mystery movie, you don't know what it is

93
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:26,240
until you actually go and see the movie. And why

94
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,040
would you want to take that chance? I guess it

95
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,959
is kind of fun for, you know, just to not

96
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:32,439
really know what we're gonna get into and just just

97
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:34,199
go see a movie. That's one aspect to it. But

98
00:05:34,439 --> 00:05:36,600
the reason why I went to go see this movie

99
00:05:36,759 --> 00:05:42,000
and I I was under the impression because of some

100
00:05:42,879 --> 00:05:46,480
I'll say some what I thought were reliable sources that

101
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,079
this was going to be an early screening for Sonic three.

102
00:05:49,439 --> 00:05:53,160
So yes, there would have been a world where I

103
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:57,360
maybe wouldn't have been alone recording this, and I'm maybe, well,

104
00:05:57,439 --> 00:06:00,319
maybe I would have been alone as well, but I

105
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,279
would have been talking about Sonic three, which I am

106
00:06:03,439 --> 00:06:05,319
still gonna be seen. I am very much still looking

107
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:09,079
for that movie, but that is not what I got

108
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:13,600
on screen. So I yeah, went through my whole day.

109
00:06:13,759 --> 00:06:16,360
I was messaging, you know, the lads about how we're

110
00:06:16,399 --> 00:06:19,839
gonna be moving some things around. Ended up deciding that, yeah,

111
00:06:19,879 --> 00:06:21,920
we're gonna play the Russian Roulette game. We're gonna go

112
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,639
see this because again, I thought the odds were super

113
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,800
super strong. It was gonna be Sonic three, and even

114
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:30,920
if it wasn't Sonic three, it's like, okay, maybe the

115
00:06:30,959 --> 00:06:32,959
War of the row Herem movie, the new Lord of

116
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:36,680
the Rings anime movie would be releasing soon, so I

117
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,120
thought it was a pretty healthy gamble. They didn't release

118
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,120
obviously the name of the movie, but they did release

119
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,480
a runtime which kind of narrowed it down to around

120
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,120
I believe it was like one hundred and ten minutes.

121
00:06:48,199 --> 00:06:51,120
So again, like it seemed pretty close to what the

122
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:55,519
Sonic three runtime is, because I believe that's I believe

123
00:06:55,519 --> 00:06:58,560
it's it's If it's not that, it's it's pretty similar

124
00:06:58,639 --> 00:07:01,000
so again, I just feel like all the cards, all

125
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,240
the stars were pointing this was gonna be a Sonic three.

126
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:11,600
So yeah, message the lads, we move newscasts. Just multiple

127
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:13,879
things were going on Taylor Field and it ended up

128
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,040
having some personal things, so he wasn't able to go

129
00:07:16,079 --> 00:07:18,720
see the movies, and I thought, you know what, fuck out,

130
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,279
We've already moved the newscast. I'm gonna take this gamble.

131
00:07:21,319 --> 00:07:24,000
I'm so sure it's Sonic three. I'm gonna go there.

132
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,160
I'm gonna get my popcorn, I'm gonna get my my drink,

133
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,240
and I'm just gonna be, you know, a solo goer

134
00:07:29,319 --> 00:07:31,759
for some for a new Sonic adventure. I'm really looking

135
00:07:31,879 --> 00:07:35,759
forward to seeing that movie with the inclusion of Shadow

136
00:07:35,839 --> 00:07:40,199
the Hedgehog or sorry, yeah, I guess that's not a spoiler.

137
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:42,120
He was in the trailer, so you know, Shadows coming

138
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:47,319
for all the Sonic viewers out there. But my gosh,

139
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:49,120
I'm sorry, I already lost my train of thought. That

140
00:07:49,199 --> 00:07:50,959
might happen a couple of times tonight. I'm also gonna

141
00:07:50,959 --> 00:07:54,079
have to be taking a few waterships because, as I

142
00:07:54,079 --> 00:07:56,519
mentioned earlier, this is a solo venture and this is

143
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,800
something very unique to you, the audience listeners for hearing

144
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:03,879
me talk alone for this long and me the podcaster

145
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:07,120
going off and trying to stay on track. And we'll

146
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:09,199
see how many times I go off track but no

147
00:08:09,319 --> 00:08:12,040
getting back to my tail now. So yeah, pretty sure

148
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:13,839
it was Sonic. I knew I was going alone, but

149
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,680
it doesn't matter. It's gonna be Sonic. Go in there

150
00:08:18,319 --> 00:08:21,519
and my local theater. I've been there many many times.

151
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:25,199
I've I've seen many amazing releases in this theater. And

152
00:08:25,279 --> 00:08:26,879
because I've been there so many times, I kind of

153
00:08:26,879 --> 00:08:29,000
have it down to a science now that if you

154
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:32,679
let's say the movie starts at seven o'clock, If I arrive,

155
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:36,840
let's say I don't know ten after seven, I get

156
00:08:36,919 --> 00:08:40,440
enough time to get my concessions to maybe it's seven fifteen.

157
00:08:40,519 --> 00:08:42,320
Now you might be thinking it's crazy, like how canep

158
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,720
you missing fifty miss the movie like this? People trust me.

159
00:08:45,759 --> 00:08:47,960
I've been to these movies so many times. I always

160
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,399
get there. Let's say seven to fifteen, movie starts seven

161
00:08:50,399 --> 00:08:52,639
to sixteen, like on the dot it is, it is

162
00:08:52,759 --> 00:08:56,080
just dialed in this time around, Like, yeah, I just

163
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,519
have it to a t now because I've been to

164
00:08:58,519 --> 00:09:01,600
so many movies, and that's that's super super accurate all

165
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:04,320
these times. Now, I will say, because it is Monday,

166
00:09:04,399 --> 00:09:09,200
it isn't in the normal So for some context, we

167
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:13,320
have the extreme theater. There's one big extreme theater, meaning

168
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,279
the one screen in the theater which usually has the

169
00:09:16,279 --> 00:09:17,960
big movie. So I noticed that this movie was in

170
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:21,039
one of the smaller theaters, or sorry, one of the

171
00:09:21,039 --> 00:09:24,799
smaller screens, so I figured, maybe, you know, it wouldn't

172
00:09:24,799 --> 00:09:26,960
be having the exact same fifty minute rule. So I

173
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,879
did get there basically right at seven, which some people

174
00:09:30,919 --> 00:09:33,559
might think that's crazy late because maybe they get their

175
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:35,639
thirty minutes before every movie. That is not me at all.

176
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:40,120
I'm usually always walking in the door after the start time.

177
00:09:40,159 --> 00:09:42,399
But again, like it's never an issue because there's always trailers,

178
00:09:42,759 --> 00:09:45,879
and because we do the newscast, we are usually always

179
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,279
covering these trailers. So I've always seen them so many times,

180
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,039
so I don't want to sit there and rewatch them,

181
00:09:50,039 --> 00:09:55,360
so I digress them. So I get there. Yeah, let's

182
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:59,399
say seven o'clock, pretty busy for a Monday evening. I

183
00:09:59,399 --> 00:10:03,399
don't really go to movies on a Monday, but yeah,

184
00:10:03,519 --> 00:10:09,039
get in there, Wayne in line, get my popcorn and

185
00:10:09,039 --> 00:10:11,159
get my drink, get my my movie ticket, and they

186
00:10:11,159 --> 00:10:14,639
still don't tell me the name of the movie. It's

187
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,279
just the Mystery Monday movie. So that's what I got

188
00:10:17,279 --> 00:10:20,799
my ticket for. Oh and I should have mentioned earlier

189
00:10:21,279 --> 00:10:23,639
I said I had some sources. One of my sources,

190
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,720
I'm not gonna name names or anything, may or may

191
00:10:26,759 --> 00:10:29,159
not be one of the managers at this specific theater.

192
00:10:29,399 --> 00:10:34,600
So I was getting some like again credible information that Okay,

193
00:10:34,639 --> 00:10:37,639
it's pretty likely that it's either Lord of the Rings

194
00:10:37,799 --> 00:10:40,000
or Sonic. And again, the runtime looked like it was

195
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:43,159
more like Sonic. So that was just another factor that

196
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:44,639
I thought for sure it was going to be the

197
00:10:44,639 --> 00:10:47,879
case that it was Sonic. And I was also kind

198
00:10:47,879 --> 00:10:50,559
of hoping that that individual would have been working this evening,

199
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:55,279
which they were not, which I maybe could have gotten

200
00:10:55,399 --> 00:10:57,639
like the go ahead, like, yes, this is for sure Sonic,

201
00:10:57,639 --> 00:11:00,480
but this is for sure not Sonic. You know, take

202
00:11:00,519 --> 00:11:03,519
that how you will. I probably wouldn't have gone in

203
00:11:03,639 --> 00:11:07,000
through that door if I was told it wasn't Sonic,

204
00:11:07,039 --> 00:11:09,279
if they told me it was September five, because before tonight,

205
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:13,159
I never even knew that was a movie. And honestly,

206
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,320
I probably would have just walked away. If that was

207
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:18,360
the case, I would have just headed home. And I'm

208
00:11:18,399 --> 00:11:20,399
gonna you know, of course, we're gonna get to the review.

209
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:22,039
You're gonna hear my thoughts. I will tell you if

210
00:11:22,039 --> 00:11:23,559
that was a regret or not, if that was a

211
00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:26,360
good idea or not. But yeah, back to the story.

212
00:11:26,639 --> 00:11:30,240
So that individual wasn't there, So it's like, okay, well,

213
00:11:30,279 --> 00:11:32,279
I've already got my popcorn, already got my drink, already

214
00:11:32,279 --> 00:11:35,039
got my ticket, so I'm kind of in it. You

215
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,600
can kind of walk out within thirty minutes of a

216
00:11:38,639 --> 00:11:41,240
movie and get your your money refund. I knew that rule.

217
00:11:42,159 --> 00:11:46,279
I could have done it, I guess. But let's just

218
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:49,159
go back to what was in my mind during these moments. Yeah,

219
00:11:49,159 --> 00:11:51,759
I got my ticket going through, had my ticket to

220
00:11:51,799 --> 00:11:56,639
the to the fine gentleman at the stand and shows

221
00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,559
me to my theater, and I'm going in there. I

222
00:11:59,639 --> 00:12:02,080
know it's the doors closed. Doors closed at the start

223
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:03,799
of at the start of a movie is always kind

224
00:12:03,799 --> 00:12:05,919
of concerning because usually they leave them open for a while,

225
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:09,279
like especially while the the the previews are coming on.

226
00:12:09,399 --> 00:12:10,720
So as soon as I saw that, I'm like, okay,

227
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:12,480
I might be I might be a little bit hooped here.

228
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,799
Walk in there and one of the one of the

229
00:12:15,799 --> 00:12:19,600
theater managers standing in the in the hallway, just kind

230
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,600
of like doing their pre movie checklist whatever they do.

231
00:12:24,159 --> 00:12:26,039
And I walk in there and the theater is just

232
00:12:26,799 --> 00:12:30,440
pretty packed, honestly, like like for the screen not being

233
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:32,840
one of the bit like the bigger screen at that theater.

234
00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:36,639
I was pretty impressed actually, like it was still really packed.

235
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:41,559
And yeah, I'm just I'm hustling in my seat. I

236
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:44,759
got a nice little angle booth seat up in the

237
00:12:44,759 --> 00:12:47,759
corner of the little you know, good good solo viewing experience.

238
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:52,159
And I as i'm as as I'm hiking up to

239
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:54,279
my seat, I I just kind of glanced over the screen.

240
00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:57,039
I just saw something. It said September five. Now, of course,

241
00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:00,360
in my like little pee brain, I see this this message,

242
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:03,159
and in my mind, I'm like, okay, that's that's like

243
00:13:03,159 --> 00:13:06,960
a release date, right, Like it's that's gonna be for

244
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:09,399
the movie it's coming out. So okay, I don't know

245
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,240
what this movie was, but clearly the previews are still

246
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,960
going on because they're showing us this. And then I

247
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:16,720
sit down and I noticed that we haven't been like

248
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,679
cutting too anything else or you know the classic like

249
00:13:19,759 --> 00:13:22,840
Landmark Cinemas, like thanks for coming to the movies. Preview

250
00:13:22,879 --> 00:13:25,720
message wasn't playing, and I realized the movie had already started,

251
00:13:25,759 --> 00:13:29,519
So okay, right away I knew that it wasn't it

252
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,399
wasn't Sonic because Sonic is definitely not a live action movie.

253
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:37,120
And I think by this point, I'm just like trying

254
00:13:37,159 --> 00:13:40,799
to register everything that's going on. Maybe it's an extended trailer,

255
00:13:40,879 --> 00:13:43,240
like maybe again, like I'm still in some disbelief that

256
00:13:43,279 --> 00:13:46,399
I will be seeing Sonic and it's just keep going on.

257
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,679
It's like, okay, no, definitely not. Maybe, maybe it's gonna

258
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:52,519
be something else. I'm interested in the chap Like the

259
00:13:52,519 --> 00:13:55,080
first gentleman that was on screen kind of had a

260
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,399
little bit of a Timothy Shallon May thing going for

261
00:13:57,519 --> 00:14:00,240
him from the back. So I'm like, oh man, this

262
00:14:00,799 --> 00:14:04,759
this could be like the what's the Chap's name? The

263
00:14:04,799 --> 00:14:07,639
Bob Dylan movie, like the New Timothry Timothy shall May

264
00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:11,519
and I at this at the point of this recording,

265
00:14:11,639 --> 00:14:13,159
I do not know when that movie's come out. I

266
00:14:13,159 --> 00:14:15,080
just remember seeing a poster as I was into the theater,

267
00:14:15,039 --> 00:14:16,519
so I'm like, oh shit, this is gonna be really cool.

268
00:14:16,519 --> 00:14:18,600
I like, Timothy Shallo may this is kind of like

269
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:22,320
a nice little surprise here. So that's the movie that

270
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:23,639
I thought it was. And then of course once he

271
00:14:23,799 --> 00:14:26,240
once the the actor headed into the light, I realized

272
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:30,600
it wasn't that. And then from this point on, because

273
00:14:30,639 --> 00:14:32,759
I thought that the title of the movie September five,

274
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:34,879
and also because I'd never heard of this movie before,

275
00:14:34,879 --> 00:14:36,879
when I saw September five, I thought it was just

276
00:14:36,879 --> 00:14:38,639
a release date. I didn't realize it was the actual

277
00:14:38,639 --> 00:14:43,080
movie until much much later on. So yeah, I'm getting

278
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:46,600
back to real time now. I'm or, you know, real

279
00:14:46,639 --> 00:14:50,399
time of the time of the storytelling. I'm sitting there

280
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:55,639
that the Gentleman the chap Is is walking into ABC

281
00:14:55,720 --> 00:15:00,399
Studios and they're doing some sports coverage. So I'm like, okay,

282
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:05,440
I don't really know of any historical sports drama that

283
00:15:05,519 --> 00:15:09,159
has come out, like maybe this is something that I

284
00:15:09,279 --> 00:15:11,360
just have never Well, clearly it's something i've never heard of.

285
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:13,799
I don't know, just some different indie movie that might

286
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:17,000
be interesting. Like I'm basically waiting for something to tell

287
00:15:17,039 --> 00:15:19,519
me what the hell this is, whether it's an actor

288
00:15:19,879 --> 00:15:23,360
or and again, like like we do like podcasting, we

289
00:15:24,399 --> 00:15:28,399
do our you know, like our movie review for the year,

290
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:30,159
so we usually look ahead and I feel like we

291
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:31,879
usually get a pretty good grasp as to what the

292
00:15:31,919 --> 00:15:34,200
big head heavy hitters are coming out for the year.

293
00:15:34,799 --> 00:15:38,799
Of course, again, like they're mostly geek, comic, bookie type

294
00:15:38,799 --> 00:15:41,159
of oriented. We talk about all films that we're interested in,

295
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:45,320
but that's kind of the main genre at least of

296
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,639
the films that are on my radar, and this was

297
00:15:48,679 --> 00:15:53,519
definitely not one of them. But you know, so sorry.

298
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:55,879
At this point, at the point in time, I think

299
00:15:55,879 --> 00:15:57,840
this is some sort of sports movie, which that's way

300
00:15:57,840 --> 00:15:59,360
it's set it up, and then I realized it's about

301
00:15:59,399 --> 00:16:04,000
Munich and then nineteen seventy two. I am not a

302
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:08,279
big historical guy or anything like that. There's a lot

303
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,120
to keep a track in the world. But I knew

304
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,879
of the Munich incident just because of the movie. And

305
00:16:14,919 --> 00:16:17,519
I say incident, I'm not trying to like downplay it.

306
00:16:17,519 --> 00:16:20,000
It was a terrorist attack. People lost their lives. It

307
00:16:20,039 --> 00:16:23,360
was really horrific, but I knew of it because of

308
00:16:23,399 --> 00:16:26,399
the film Munich, and I knew that that's what that

309
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:29,879
movie was about, so I see this. I obviously it's

310
00:16:29,879 --> 00:16:32,399
a modern movie. I don't really recognize anyone, and in

311
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:34,759
my mind, I'm like, man, did they remake like the

312
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,039
Munich movie. It seems like a weird one to remake,

313
00:16:37,559 --> 00:16:40,600
but whatever, it seems like that's what we're getting right here.

314
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:43,759
And then, of course at this point in time, I'm

315
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,879
I usually never ever pull up my phone in the

316
00:16:47,919 --> 00:16:51,159
middle of a movie, but I had to at least

317
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:54,720
dialogue with my man on the outside, which this so

318
00:16:54,759 --> 00:16:57,440
happened to be Travis Snell. You know, he's in a

319
00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:02,840
bit of a sabbatical right now, but he was my

320
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,839
lifeline there because I was basically just describing what was

321
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,839
going on. He was interested if the movie ended up

322
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:11,599
being sonic, because again it's a mystery film, and I

323
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:14,839
gave him the hard confirmation it was not sonic. I

324
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:17,559
think he was having a lot of fun on his

325
00:17:18,039 --> 00:17:22,039
side of the journey, just kind of experiencing this experience

326
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:27,279
through me, and like I will say, I definitely could

327
00:17:27,319 --> 00:17:30,519
have walked out. I had that option there, as I mentioned,

328
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:32,480
like the thirty minute policy. If you don't like the

329
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:34,160
movie within thirty minutes, you can get your money back.

330
00:17:34,839 --> 00:17:38,559
I was kind of liking the adventure in a weird way.

331
00:17:38,599 --> 00:17:42,400
It's not like I was like, I don't know, like

332
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:44,480
going way out of my way. I kind of I

333
00:17:44,519 --> 00:17:45,920
was signed up for a movie and that's what I

334
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:49,960
went to go see, and the whole mystery box experience

335
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:52,559
of it was actually kind of fun in a weird way.

336
00:17:52,599 --> 00:17:55,720
Like I definitely think I will do a mystery movie

337
00:17:56,079 --> 00:18:00,559
in the future. And I definitely learned my lesson that

338
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,880
never like count on a mystery movie for something like

339
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:07,799
don't make. Don't make like a scheduled review for the

340
00:18:07,839 --> 00:18:11,559
movie release of course, like the enticing early review and

341
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:14,559
viewing of something like Sonic three, that's something that we

342
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,720
already were looking forward to. And I say we being

343
00:18:17,759 --> 00:18:20,880
me and Taylor Field, that that's kind of what got

344
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:22,759
us did to the door. But the whole experience of

345
00:18:22,759 --> 00:18:24,839
the of the mystery movie and like just seeing like

346
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,319
a lot of different demographic out of the movie, like

347
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:30,400
there was there was younger people, and I say that

348
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,039
like I'm an old boy, but I don't know some

349
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:36,640
high schoolers. There's some some older boys. I don't know

350
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:39,720
why I keep saying boys. This is weird, but just

351
00:18:39,759 --> 00:18:43,799
some yeah, just all all ages, all shapes and sizes

352
00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,599
is what I should be saying. And yeah, it was

353
00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:50,319
pretty pretty lively crowd, not in the sense of everybody

354
00:18:50,559 --> 00:18:52,279
hooting and hollering, but it just seemed like everybody was

355
00:18:52,279 --> 00:18:55,440
like locked into the movie and it was. It was

356
00:18:55,519 --> 00:18:58,279
kind of Yeah, it was a unique one of one

357
00:18:58,319 --> 00:19:01,599
experience for sure, and of course some comedy came out

358
00:19:01,599 --> 00:19:07,799
of it, the wild adventure that was my Yeah, just

359
00:19:07,799 --> 00:19:10,680
just completely woke up this morning nothing as we seen

360
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:12,200
a movie, and then as they went on, thought I

361
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:13,480
was gonna be seeing Sonic, and then at the end

362
00:19:13,519 --> 00:19:15,160
of the day I saw a movie that I never

363
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:21,440
had even heard of before. So, uh, yeah, I don't

364
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:26,680
think I'm really missing out on anything else. Oh other yeah,

365
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,440
just so, so I pull on my phone because I'm

366
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:31,240
off in the corner, you know, I'm not distracting other

367
00:19:31,279 --> 00:19:34,759
people or anything, but just messaging Travis and just trying

368
00:19:34,759 --> 00:19:36,920
to kind of decipher what the hell this movie is,

369
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:39,160
because yeah, I'm asking if there's a Munich movie. He's

370
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:42,119
asking me if there's any actors we recognize. Definitely not

371
00:19:43,519 --> 00:19:45,960
the first actor that I did recognize, which I should

372
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:49,079
have pulled up his name. I'm so sorry right now,

373
00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:53,599
but his if you checked out Rings of Power. Uh,

374
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:58,960
he played the role of gil Galad the I hated

375
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:02,119
that character if you checked reviews. But Benjamin Walker, there

376
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,359
you go, that's his name. He plays Peter Jennings in

377
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:07,039
the film. So that was the first like recognizable face

378
00:20:07,079 --> 00:20:11,079
I saw. And then later on and not much later on,

379
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:16,480
but I saw Peter Sarsgard, who I had only really

380
00:20:16,519 --> 00:20:21,039
seen him in The Great and Powerful Green Lantern film

381
00:20:21,279 --> 00:20:23,920
where he played mister Hector, and I feel like maybe

382
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:27,240
I've seen him play like a side character in some

383
00:20:27,319 --> 00:20:30,480
things here and there. But I'm getting my house out.

384
00:20:30,519 --> 00:20:32,440
I don't want to get into the movie yet, even

385
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:34,920
though this is a review for that specific movie, because

386
00:20:35,279 --> 00:20:39,039
not exactly done my little recap story yet. And I

387
00:20:39,079 --> 00:20:43,160
again apologize if you came here for a September five

388
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:47,319
spoilers review. That's not exactly what this episode is. Well,

389
00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:49,440
it is what it's about. It's the title of the episode,

390
00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:52,839
but really it's about the experience and journey that I

391
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:54,279
kind of went on because I did not sign up

392
00:20:54,279 --> 00:20:56,599
for this journey, and this is kind of what you're getting.

393
00:20:56,720 --> 00:21:00,440
So if you're still, you know, listening, I appreciate you

394
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:02,720
being here with me and seeing me kind of fumble

395
00:21:02,799 --> 00:21:04,920
my way just to the start line. I haven't even

396
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:06,920
gone to the review or my thoughts on this film, yes,

397
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:12,920
but yeah, it was definitely a unique adventure with yeah,

398
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:14,160
some good laughs on the way. I was kind of

399
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,000
chuckling to myself, of course, And the funniest thing was

400
00:21:17,079 --> 00:21:19,400
just I think I like really convinced myself that it

401
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:21,200
was gonna be sonic, Like, of course, it's like I

402
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:24,839
never really know, but like still it's like everything's aligning,

403
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,519
like now it's Sonic three. I'm gonna be seeing countu

404
00:21:27,559 --> 00:21:29,960
Reeves a shadow here. That's gonna be awesome. And then

405
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:36,000
I got a yeah, like Oscar Buzz film about a

406
00:21:36,079 --> 00:21:39,200
terrorist attack at the nineteen seventy two Munich game, So

407
00:21:39,599 --> 00:21:48,359
definitely a completely different genre. And yeah, so I would

408
00:21:48,759 --> 00:21:51,039
you know, if you ever see a miss movie mystery

409
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:54,000
Monday thing and you're sitting near you give it a shot,

410
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:56,960
you never know what you'll find, because yeah, I was

411
00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:00,200
kind of hiding my thoughts overall, but honestly, I had

412
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:03,559
a good time with this film. I was kind of joking, uh,

413
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:05,839
well to myself because of course it's all alone and

414
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,400
this is just the weirdo that I am, but uh

415
00:22:09,039 --> 00:22:13,160
it's and yeah, so story over, I'm gonna be getting

416
00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:17,000
into the review now. You know what, Let's take a

417
00:22:17,039 --> 00:22:18,680
quick AD break and then we'll get in there. Give

418
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:20,880
me time to sip some water, so we'll take our

419
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:24,160
first ad break, which, of course, if you're joining our Patreon,

420
00:22:24,319 --> 00:22:26,440
you won't have you won't be having to listen to

421
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:29,519
an ad because we do not give that to uh

422
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:31,920
to our patreon supporters because they're just that great and

423
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:35,880
they support the show just like ads do and should

424
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:41,440
have shouted it out a little bit earlier. But yeah,

425
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:45,759
we got we got Creature Commandos coming out. Taylor Field

426
00:22:45,759 --> 00:22:48,279

427
00:22:48,319 --> 00:22:52,079
as the Star Wars Skeleton crewise show. We got Craven

428
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:56,079
the Hunter coming out, so that's going to be a

429
00:22:56,119 --> 00:23:01,079
review released with I believe that's my self, Taylor Field

430
00:23:01,079 --> 00:23:04,480
and Dylan Muss, and then Lord of the Rings where

431
00:23:04,519 --> 00:23:07,279

433
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:15,799
of course we're leaving in that Christmas slot, so depending

434
00:23:15,839 --> 00:23:18,359
on everyone's schedule. I know the lads definitely want to

435
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:21,799
get out and see that one, so don't like again,

436
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,039
don't do what I did and bank on it like

437
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:28,799
the movie Mystery deal. But hopefully you'll be seeing an

438
00:23:28,799 --> 00:23:31,000
Osharatu review, and even if we don't get a review out,

439
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,519
we'll be talking about that film early in the new

440
00:23:33,559 --> 00:23:35,880
year because we're all really excited for it. And of

441
00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,160

445
00:23:49,079 --> 00:23:53,079
course our after nine show that's gonna be I believe

446
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:57,799

saw it and uh yeah, it's just a good time.

452
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,200
We kind of just shoot the shit and uh just

453
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:15,200

454
00:24:15,279 --> 00:24:18,400
our beautiful patreons out there because we love each and

00:24:22,759 --> 00:24:29,720
ad break oh alrighty, then we are getting into the

457
00:24:30,839 --> 00:24:34,559
I'm gonna say what you came for. I feel like, honestly,

458
00:24:34,599 --> 00:24:38,279
my review is going to be less entertaining than, of course,

459
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:41,000
the story about me seeing this film. I feel like

460
00:24:41,039 --> 00:24:43,519
that was a lot more exciting than my overall thoughts

461
00:24:43,519 --> 00:24:46,119
of the film. But you know, I put in the

462
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,279
title that's what you people came for, So I'm gonna

463
00:24:48,279 --> 00:24:52,960
be giving you my thoughts on September five. So yes,

464
00:24:53,039 --> 00:24:54,759
if you made it through my long spiel of an

465
00:24:54,799 --> 00:24:57,359
intro and just kind of how I got into the movie,

466
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:01,279
you would know that I did not really sign up

467
00:25:01,279 --> 00:25:05,720
for this movie. I got it, and honestly, I am

468
00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:11,160
really really pumped that this was the mystery movie. Yeah,

469
00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:13,759
just just the mystery movie that that had come out,

470
00:25:13,799 --> 00:25:17,400
because I probably would never have sought this movie out.

471
00:25:17,599 --> 00:25:20,480
Like ever, like even if I heard I don't know

472
00:25:20,519 --> 00:25:23,160
buzz about it and people give me like they're just

473
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:27,960
high praise on it, it just I don't know, Like

474
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:34,559
I like some historical accounts like I have seen Munich

475
00:25:35,039 --> 00:25:38,039
of course, like the movie that was I don't even

476
00:25:38,079 --> 00:25:39,680
know when that movie came out, I want to say

477
00:25:40,519 --> 00:25:43,440
pre two thousands. Normally I just bank off of other

478
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:45,359
people here. Because I'm solo, I'm gonna have to just

479
00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:47,599
be googling all these things, so I do I apologize.

480
00:25:47,599 --> 00:25:49,119
It's gonna be taking me some time, or if I

481
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:54,119
spit any false information, I apologize. But yeah, I think

482
00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:58,440
i'd seen Munich, like I don't know, it was on

483
00:25:58,519 --> 00:26:00,960
TV two five is when it came out, and saw

484
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:04,200
I was kind of off, but there you go, starring

485
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:06,640
the great Eric Banna Dan Craigs in here. My gosh, Okay,

486
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:08,359
I don't really remember this movie at all, so I

487
00:26:08,559 --> 00:26:12,680
probably saw glimpses glimpses and glances of it on TV

488
00:26:12,759 --> 00:26:15,200
at some point and really didn't remember much of it.

489
00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:17,759
I knew of the terrorist attacks in Munich at the

490
00:26:17,759 --> 00:26:20,400
time nineteen seventy two German Olympics, but I really didn't

491
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,880
know like the the finer details I guess of it.

492
00:26:25,039 --> 00:26:30,400
So yeah, I and of course my intro just telling

493
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:33,039
of the story of me deciphering what even this was

494
00:26:33,279 --> 00:26:35,200
like that was a whole experience in m of itself.

495
00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:37,880
But yeah, like definitely not the type of movie that

496
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:41,759
i'd be seeking out on my on my my norm

497
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:46,480
But and yeah, like of course, Travis being my guy

498
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:48,880
in the chair was mentioning that this was potentially an

499
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,319
Oscar film, and I don't know if you've heard me

500
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,720
in the years, I'm kind of just like bitter on

501
00:26:53,759 --> 00:26:55,559
award shows in general. Of course, we do our Golden

502
00:26:55,559 --> 00:26:59,720
Geeks every year, which is super fair and not rigged

503
00:26:59,759 --> 00:27:04,839
at all. It sounds sarcastic me saying that it's definitely

504
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:06,720
not rigged, but I think it's just some of the

505
00:27:06,759 --> 00:27:10,119
results are goofy sometimes. But yeah, super legitimate show that

506
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:12,680
we do every single year. Again, not sarcastic, even though

507
00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:15,440
I continue to make it sound that way. I apologize,

508
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:17,960
but yeah, not really big fan of award shows. I

509
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:21,759
just find that they're like popularity contests, and I just

510
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,920
jokingly like to bash the Oscars. How the Oscar movies

511
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:27,480
are usually just like boring movies that no one really

512
00:27:27,559 --> 00:27:30,039
cares about. But unless you're like a really big film head.

513
00:27:30,039 --> 00:27:32,759
And I'm not trying to offend any any film heads

514
00:27:32,759 --> 00:27:35,559
out there, I'm not trying to bash something that you

515
00:27:35,599 --> 00:27:37,400
find passionate. You know, if you like the Oscars, you

516
00:27:37,519 --> 00:27:40,039
like what is that's amazing. I'm happy for you. Just

517
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:42,759
in the past, I feel like I poke fun of them,

518
00:27:42,759 --> 00:27:44,240
So definitely not the type of movie I would be

519
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:47,759
searching out. I really didn't recognize anyone on here I met,

520
00:27:47,839 --> 00:27:50,440
of course, like Peter sarsgard I recognize them a couple

521
00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:53,640
of things, but beyond that, like, I don't know, there's

522
00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:55,599
no one in there. If I would have watched this trailer, like,

523
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:59,160
I definitely wouldn't have been sold to go see this

524
00:27:59,319 --> 00:28:04,799
in the definitely let alone at home. So yeah, not

525
00:28:04,839 --> 00:28:06,240
what I would have searched out. But it was a

526
00:28:06,319 --> 00:28:10,480
nice little surprise because it was a funny introduction of

527
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,119
the film because at as I've already said like five

528
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:16,960
times now, I just deciphering it, realizing what it was,

529
00:28:17,839 --> 00:28:22,319
and uh yeah, okay, I I chose to stay in

530
00:28:22,319 --> 00:28:24,240
the theater. I'm not gonna be leaving. Let's let's unpack

531
00:28:24,279 --> 00:28:28,119
this film together. And by together, I mean myself and

532
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:32,400
the audience that I was with. But uh yeah, I'm

533
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:35,079
really glad I stuck it out because this this is

534
00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:41,359
an insanely well crafted film, and I, yeah, I I

535
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:44,240
never really seek out like the movies that are mentioned

536
00:28:44,279 --> 00:28:47,559
around Oscars. Maybe I do now, like maybe this is

537
00:28:47,599 --> 00:28:50,519
gonna be like an eye opening moment where I'm just

538
00:28:50,599 --> 00:28:54,279
missing out on a plethora of like extremely well crafted films,

539
00:28:54,519 --> 00:28:57,880
especially now that you know under the geek First Productions banner,

540
00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:00,559
like we're starting to release our own films and just

541
00:29:00,559 --> 00:29:03,359
getting into the film crafts and everything. I feel like

542
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:06,799
I've just kind of I've always appreciated films throughout my life,

543
00:29:06,839 --> 00:29:09,759
obviously doing reviews and podcasting you talk about the whole time,

544
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,039
you just grow appreciation for it. But once you actually

545
00:29:12,039 --> 00:29:15,039
start making films, I feel like it's just a completely

546
00:29:15,079 --> 00:29:17,599
different thing in and of itself, Like you just see

547
00:29:17,759 --> 00:29:21,240
films differently. You think about what it takes to really

548
00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,720
craft these shots and all the moving pieces that really

549
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:29,480
like what it takes to make a film, and I, yeah,

550
00:29:29,559 --> 00:29:32,039
I feel like I just like I am able to

551
00:29:32,079 --> 00:29:35,240
appreciate the craft a lot more. And I'm already starting

552
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:38,680
to sound like a like a grimy little film film

553
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:40,720
nerd like I like to make fun of. But no,

554
00:29:40,839 --> 00:29:43,680
this is this is an extremely well made movie. The

555
00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:46,920
crafting of the shots, the like just the film effects

556
00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:50,680
and everything. The score. I found the score. The score

557
00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:55,000
extremely subtle. And I don't even know if I contradict

558
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,880
myself in history or in passing, but I feel like

559
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:02,039
with me and the score, there's like there's two sides

560
00:30:02,039 --> 00:30:03,880
of the spectrum where it's like, okay, the score is

561
00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:07,400
extremely noticeable, and at times it can either be like

562
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:11,799
too much, where it's just too much score, or maybe

563
00:30:11,839 --> 00:30:13,680
maybe it's just such like a bop that it really

564
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:15,920
like stands out and I'm just really clicking with it

565
00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:18,079
and it like makes me just focus on it more.

566
00:30:18,599 --> 00:30:20,240
And then on the other side of the spectrum, it's

567
00:30:20,319 --> 00:30:23,400
like a subtle score where it's like barely even there.

568
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:25,599
I don't even know that it's in the film, and

569
00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:28,759
it just seems, yeah, like there is no score. I

570
00:30:28,759 --> 00:30:31,599
feel like this movie is more on the subtle side

571
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:35,599
because there isn't like again like some crazy I don't

572
00:30:35,599 --> 00:30:38,400
even know sense or something that like just make you

573
00:30:38,519 --> 00:30:41,079
cower and fear, like it's Dune or something you got

574
00:30:41,079 --> 00:30:45,000
Hans Zimmer coming at you with a sandworm. But this movie,

575
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:47,160
like the subtle, subtleness of the score, I feel like

576
00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:52,319
it just it hit those like jaw dropping moments just

577
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:54,720
so much more. And maybe I'm have perbalyzing a little

578
00:30:54,759 --> 00:30:56,920
bit with the jaw dropping this, but I feel like

579
00:30:56,960 --> 00:31:01,160
this movie just hits you in certain moments with again

580
00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:05,200
like the tragic events that are happening in real life,

581
00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:07,839
because this is based on a true story of a

582
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:14,359
true terrorist attack in Munich, Germany. Like I feel like

583
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:17,880
the moments of yeah, like when it gut punches you,

584
00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:21,599
the score just comes in like a tidal wave to

585
00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:24,920
like carry those emotions. And I don't know if I'm

586
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:29,119
just yeah, like, I don't know if that's just my well,

587
00:31:29,519 --> 00:31:33,440
you know you're here again. Sorry, I'm used to bouncing

588
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:36,160
off other people, So this is just basically my thoughts.

589
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:38,440
So yeah, this is what you get. But I feel

590
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:41,279
like the way that it just like hit like those

591
00:31:41,319 --> 00:31:44,400
title waves, it lifted those moments so much more for me.

592
00:31:44,839 --> 00:31:51,519
And there is a couple I'm gonna call them twists. Yeah,

593
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,079
it's not even really a twist because this is a

594
00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:57,440
historical event. If you are familiar with the event, obviously

595
00:31:57,519 --> 00:32:00,559
you would know the ending of what happens. But I

596
00:32:00,839 --> 00:32:03,599
feel like they did a really good job at just

597
00:32:03,599 --> 00:32:11,000
just like unraveling I think the story and yeah, no,

598
00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:14,920
so for me, like the score was phenomenal, as subtle

599
00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:16,759
as it might might be, I just think it was

600
00:32:16,759 --> 00:32:18,960
the perfect amount and it didn't really try to overdo

601
00:32:19,039 --> 00:32:23,480
what it was trying to do. And yeah, just as

602
00:32:23,519 --> 00:32:25,839
I was kind of mentioning there with the telling I

603
00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:29,519
think of this story. I think the fact that I'm

604
00:32:29,759 --> 00:32:34,680
really not that knowledgeable. I think of everything, like all

605
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:36,640
the details that went on with the nineteen seventy two

606
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:41,400
terrorist attack. Like you know, I saw the movie maybe

607
00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:43,400
on TV like years ago, I really didn't remember much

608
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:46,359
about it. I think this movie does such a great

609
00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:50,039
job at actually telling the tale. Now, there might be

610
00:32:50,039 --> 00:32:52,559
some out there that are really familiar with historical events

611
00:32:52,559 --> 00:32:57,559
that maybe they completely I don't know, veered in different directions.

612
00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:01,960
I didn't really check that, you know, I'll obviously find

613
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:03,960
out later on when I look into it a little

614
00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:06,079
bit more or just hear other people's feedback, because I

615
00:33:06,279 --> 00:33:09,400
don't know like how pinpoint accurate it is. I think

616
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:11,559
the movie really sets it up to make it feel

617
00:33:11,559 --> 00:33:13,599
like it is pretty authentic. So that's just kind of

618
00:33:13,599 --> 00:33:16,519
what I'm running with. But I just think they do

619
00:33:16,559 --> 00:33:21,519
such a great job at putting you there, like in

620
00:33:21,599 --> 00:33:23,880
nineteen seventy two when this would have been happening, whether

621
00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:28,039
you're at home watching the events take place, or whether

622
00:33:28,079 --> 00:33:31,640
you're in the control room like with the ABC news

623
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:33,440
crew kind of covering everything. I think they just do

624
00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:38,000
such a good job at whether it's just released, like

625
00:33:38,319 --> 00:33:41,759
having the characters find things out with you, the like

626
00:33:41,799 --> 00:33:45,359
the viewer, with you, the audience, because cause there's no

627
00:33:45,519 --> 00:33:48,000
like like Tarantino style where you start at the end

628
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:49,440
and then and then work your way back and like

629
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:53,240
piece it together like it really is. Everything's taking place

630
00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:57,119
as the movie's going along, and it just makes it

631
00:33:57,160 --> 00:34:01,480
feel like it is like a live like a live telling,

632
00:34:01,559 --> 00:34:03,319
like like like as if you know, we're transported back

633
00:34:03,319 --> 00:34:05,960
into nineteen seventy two and this is us like kind

634
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:10,559
of going through just yeah, like breaking down all this

635
00:34:10,599 --> 00:34:14,480
information that they're giving us, and like all of the

636
00:34:14,519 --> 00:34:18,960
shots of the just I guess, like the terrorist events

637
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,440
that are going on, it's all like through like the

638
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:24,480
news cameras, so it's not like we're seeing, you know,

639
00:34:24,639 --> 00:34:27,760
like from the ABC newscaster. And then it goes to

640
00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:31,119
like the actual film camera of them making the movie,

641
00:34:31,159 --> 00:34:33,599
like in like the hotel, like with the terrorists and

642
00:34:33,599 --> 00:34:37,960
with with the like with the hostages and the victims

643
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:39,360
and like that, like there's none of that, like you

644
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:42,679
really just get what you see through the ABC coverage

645
00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:46,400
and it makes it really feel like, I don't know,

646
00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:50,480
intense beak, and I think it's just multiplied because I

647
00:34:50,519 --> 00:34:52,440
really didn't know much about what was going on. Like

648
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:55,400
I truly felt like I was like at home and

649
00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:58,440
just like stressed over this, Like Okay, I'm watching the

650
00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:01,360
Olympics and now this terrorist events going on, and like

651
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:02,920
just the way that they're breaking it down, and then

652
00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:06,920
of course like we're in the like our our main characters.

653
00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:08,880
I haven't really talked about our main characters, but our

654
00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:16,239
main characters are like the ABC Sports broadcasting crew. I

655
00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:18,440
guess I should have mentioned that, So, yes, our main

656
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:24,320
players are ABC Sports casters if you didn't know, because

657
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:28,039
I didn't know until I saw this movie. But this

658
00:35:28,199 --> 00:35:31,039
was this was such a big deal because this was

659
00:35:31,079 --> 00:35:34,400
the first time that a terrorist event was live broadcasted

660
00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:37,159
like on TV ever nineteen seventy two. You gotta imagine

661
00:35:37,159 --> 00:35:40,599
a long time ago, some old tech. Definitely not what

662
00:35:40,639 --> 00:35:45,360
we have nowadays. But yeah, so ABC they were obviously

663
00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:50,519
covering the the Olympics for the sports broadcast, and then

664
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:54,800
they just so happened to be the only like I

665
00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:56,840
don't know exactly how it was working, but it seemed

666
00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:58,039
like they were the only ones that had like the

667
00:35:58,039 --> 00:36:02,480
capabilities to be live stream mean this, and they took

668
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:06,800
full advantage, and they they drew in an insane amount

669
00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:10,199
of audience, which you would imagine, like again, people are

670
00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:16,199
just drawn to turmoil and and just awful things. That's

671
00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:18,199
usually what gives us clicks. It's it's something that's still

672
00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:22,360
relevant today. But yeah, no, it drew in an insane

673
00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:24,719
amount of people. I believe that nine hundred million was

674
00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:26,280
the number that they dropped at the end of the film.

675
00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:33,679
And you basically are just, yeah, just just experiencing the

676
00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:37,480
whole unraveling of of the terror event through the lens

677
00:36:37,519 --> 00:36:42,079
of these newscasters. And I really really liked the telling

678
00:36:42,159 --> 00:36:47,079
of it. I'm gonna try and like not spoil really again,

679
00:36:47,159 --> 00:36:48,880
like it's it's a history movie. If you know of

680
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:52,559
the event, you kind of knows what happens. I will,

681
00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:54,679
you know, say, I'm not really gonna do like a

682
00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:57,599
spoiler section, but like I well, I guess I might,

683
00:36:57,639 --> 00:37:01,119
but I'll mention any spoiler things. Uh so you if

684
00:37:01,159 --> 00:37:03,920
you really don't want to know, you know, a specific

685
00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:07,599
that happens, maybe I'll just yeah give you some some

686
00:37:07,679 --> 00:37:12,000
heads up there. But uh, yeah, no, I am where

687
00:37:12,119 --> 00:37:18,440
was I there? Yeah, so the American sports broadcasting they're

688
00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:24,480
the ones telling They're the ones telling the tale, that's sorry,

689
00:37:24,639 --> 00:37:31,440
the tale of the hostage crisis. And yeah, so the

690
00:37:31,519 --> 00:37:37,159
hostages were the Israeli national team. I think it was

691
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:40,599
multiple sports events, like there's there's weightlifting there, there's fencing

692
00:37:40,639 --> 00:37:44,679
in there, there was eleven I believe hostage is total

693
00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:51,960
and uh, yeah, it's such a just intense moment, I

694
00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:56,159
think because of the basically just the setting of everything. Uh,

695
00:37:56,199 --> 00:37:59,960
this is set in nineteen seventy two Munich, Germany. Obviously

696
00:38:00,119 --> 00:38:03,079
the like not that far away from World War Two,

697
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:07,440
like definitely within a lifetimes, so there's just like the

698
00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:11,199
obviously the after effect of everything that, like all the

699
00:38:11,199 --> 00:38:16,079
horrific events that happened there, all of the just yeah,

700
00:38:16,199 --> 00:38:20,360
just just basically like the recovery of Germany. I'm not

701
00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,639
gonna like talk like I'm a big history buff again,

702
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:25,199
like I know exactly the whole feeling of of what

703
00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:27,199
the vibe in Germany was around this time. But I

704
00:38:27,199 --> 00:38:30,639
think the movie does a good job at basically setting

705
00:38:30,679 --> 00:38:33,280
that tone and you can feel it amongst some of

706
00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:36,239
the cast and crew or Yeah, the cast and crew

707
00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:41,079
of of the ABC Sports broadcasters because some people on

708
00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:46,760
the team are Jewish. There's a German lady which I'm

709
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:50,679
gonna pull up their names because I definitely want to

710
00:38:50,679 --> 00:38:56,199
give them service. So yeah, uh Laoni Benesch who plays Marianne,

711
00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:59,079
she's she's a big character in the movie. She plays

712
00:38:59,079 --> 00:39:02,559
the German translater and yeah, they just do a good

713
00:39:02,639 --> 00:39:07,039
job at making it feel like Germany is trying to

714
00:39:07,679 --> 00:39:11,480
like really put on a like we're moving forward sort

715
00:39:11,519 --> 00:39:16,000
of persona. And then of course, for many different reasons,

716
00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:19,920
there's there's many people that feels like they like they

717
00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:24,079
they don't really deserve it maybe or they're just mad.

718
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:27,599
There's there's a lot of tension and anger I think

719
00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:30,880
in in just the whole vibe of of what the

720
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:32,599
movie set up to be. So I think they do

721
00:39:32,639 --> 00:39:40,239
a good job at setting that up pretty early on. Yeah, So, uh,

722
00:39:40,599 --> 00:39:42,639
what was what was I going off there? Oh? Yeah,

723
00:39:42,679 --> 00:39:46,000
so just telling the events. So I believe it was

724
00:39:46,159 --> 00:39:50,280
Palestinian terrorist group. They had a name for them. It

725
00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:57,239
was like Black September or something, and they yeah, early

726
00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:00,199
in the morning on September fifth, they shot up and

727
00:40:00,599 --> 00:40:05,239
murdered two of the Israeli individuals and then held them,

728
00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:08,159
had held nine of them hostage in the room for

729
00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:11,000
I don't exactly know how long. I imagine it's like a

730
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,800
full day. They don't really give us like exact time markers.

731
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:16,920
It's just yeah, it's feels like a long day. And

732
00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:18,719
I think the movie does a good job at kind

733
00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:22,960
of just making you feel how how long these newscasters

734
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:26,559
are kind of just therefore and I mean they're definitely

735
00:40:26,599 --> 00:40:30,559
not the ones that are in peril here or anything

736
00:40:30,639 --> 00:40:34,920
like that. There's people having a worse time, but yeah,

737
00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:37,840
they just do a good job at making you feel like,

738
00:40:39,599 --> 00:40:42,440
I think, just the length of time of everything that's

739
00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:49,800
going on. But anyway, so yeah, the Palestinian Terrorist Organization group,

740
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:55,639
they take these Israeli individuals hostage and then basically they're

741
00:40:55,719 --> 00:41:00,519
demanding like release whatever amount of prisoners and is israelly

742
00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:03,400
captivity and if you don't by noon, we're gonna be

743
00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:06,960
murdering a hostage every hour. So definitely sets up that

744
00:41:07,639 --> 00:41:10,840
like terror of well yeah that's the name, you know,

745
00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:14,239
suggests the terror terror event by these terrorists. But just

746
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:17,639
I think just like a time frame on it makes

747
00:41:17,639 --> 00:41:21,519
it feel like it is really just urgent and rushed

748
00:41:21,679 --> 00:41:25,599
and and yeah, I'm sorry, I'm gonna have to take

749
00:41:25,639 --> 00:41:31,559
a little sippy here. So one second, I missed a

750
00:41:31,599 --> 00:41:33,559
co host. I missed a co host so that I

751
00:41:33,559 --> 00:41:36,039
can throw it to them for a quick little brimage there.

752
00:41:36,079 --> 00:41:39,639
But thanks for bearing with me. But anyways, that's that's

753
00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:44,440
my super crude rough telling of kind of the main events.

754
00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:49,360
And yeah, so that's kind of how it's set up.

755
00:41:49,559 --> 00:41:53,400
But getting back to my initial thoughts at just my

756
00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:59,039
my true appreciation, I think for telling of the tale

757
00:41:59,119 --> 00:42:03,039
and like the just the pacing of everything. I think

758
00:42:03,039 --> 00:42:05,920
this movie doesn't overstate it's welcome. The run time is

759
00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:08,440
a nice hour and a half, and I think because

760
00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:12,480
it feels like it is such a high stakes threat

761
00:42:12,559 --> 00:42:19,280
at hand, there's not really much downtime. And it's interesting

762
00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:24,320
because this movie doesn't really minor spoilers. I guess, it

763
00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:27,159
doesn't really have a lot in your face action, but

764
00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:29,880
you still really feel the threat that's there, like you

765
00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:33,480
really feel like it is just kind of right across

766
00:42:33,519 --> 00:42:36,000
the street, because that was the reality of it, like

767
00:42:36,039 --> 00:42:39,760
they are actually there to be just covering the Olympics,

768
00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:42,559
and then of course this terrorist events going on and

769
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:47,000
there's so many just unknowns that are at play with

770
00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:50,039
just just how it all begins, and then of course

771
00:42:50,079 --> 00:42:52,679
like the coverage of it, because there isn't much access

772
00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:56,800
to like internet and like cell phones that you can't

773
00:42:56,840 --> 00:43:00,440
just be getting information like real time, just do a

774
00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:03,920
really good job at showing kind of I think, what

775
00:43:04,039 --> 00:43:07,440
it took to like really get a story told with

776
00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:10,159
the technology they had available to them in nineteen seventy two.

777
00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:14,159
Like there's a lot of shots of them actually do

778
00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:17,840
like like actually doing the work to get it on screen.

779
00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:21,880
Whether that's the uh yeah, yeah, just like the chaos

780
00:43:22,039 --> 00:43:26,119
of the control room, coordinating with all his other cameramen

781
00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:29,360
that are on like out and around the courtyard, around

782
00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:32,440
the Olympic village, just kind of using walkie talkies because

783
00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:36,880
that's what they're able to use. Whether it's the I

784
00:43:37,039 --> 00:43:39,239
don't know the name for them, but basically the lady

785
00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:41,760
that like you know puts on a little message on

786
00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:46,719
a board and then they oh, my gosh, I apologize.

787
00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:48,760
I don't remember the term of it, but they basically

788
00:43:50,679 --> 00:43:53,320
basically is able to like put on a little watermark

789
00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:55,320
or something on the image. Like just all of those

790
00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:58,000
little things that they had to actually do that. I

791
00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:02,000
think we really take it for granted now, like just

792
00:44:02,039 --> 00:44:05,360
because of again technology and how easy it is simplified

793
00:44:05,519 --> 00:44:08,400
in order to just put things out there and broadcasts

794
00:44:08,519 --> 00:44:10,960
like you know, me just doing this podcast right now.

795
00:44:11,079 --> 00:44:13,719
Like it's just it's pretty crazy how far we've come

796
00:44:14,559 --> 00:44:18,039
in terms of just getting media out there. Like, like

797
00:44:18,119 --> 00:44:19,960
I just think we totally take it for granted. For

798
00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:23,920
back in the day, all the movie pieces, all the

799
00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:26,320
the people on staff that were required in order to

800
00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:31,599
just get information on something. There's there's translators, there's like

801
00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:33,559
talking to this person on the phone and then putting

802
00:44:33,559 --> 00:44:37,039
them through the walkie talkie. Uh. There's many instances of

803
00:44:37,079 --> 00:44:40,119
them in this movie even just like they're on the

804
00:44:40,159 --> 00:44:42,119
phone with someone and then they just have the phone

805
00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:45,159
on to the broadcast and then that's what's going out

806
00:44:45,199 --> 00:44:47,639
to like the news for people to hear. So it's

807
00:44:47,679 --> 00:44:50,880
just pretty interesting like they just kind of did what

808
00:44:51,599 --> 00:44:55,000
they need to to get, yeah, in order to get

809
00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:57,280
it to work. Like they're not worried about audio quality.

810
00:44:57,320 --> 00:45:00,280
It's just yeah, it's good enough, let's get it out there.

811
00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:04,639
So that was a really interesting side that I well,

812
00:45:04,880 --> 00:45:06,760
I was gonna say I wasn't expecting going in this film.

813
00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:08,679
I wasn't expecting anything this film because I didn't even

814
00:45:08,679 --> 00:45:11,000
know this movie existed before I went in there. But yeah,

815
00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:13,960
it was just it was really cool seeing the showcasing

816
00:45:14,079 --> 00:45:17,840
I think of of just all of all of the

817
00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:22,280
things at play in actually getting the broadcast out there,

818
00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:25,559
whether it's you know, waking up their their their anchorman,

819
00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:29,880
uh that's at his house just to get him there,

820
00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:33,559
they have like phone his landline and just and then

821
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:36,880
just all all all these things. Again, it was really

822
00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:41,159
cool to see that being used because I don't know,

823
00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:46,559
just just because nowadays, again it's just taken for granted,

824
00:45:46,559 --> 00:45:48,639
I guess how easy is to get out there. So yeah,

825
00:45:48,679 --> 00:45:52,519
I thought that was really cool and something else that

826
00:45:52,599 --> 00:45:57,000
they really did a good job at highlighting that. Again,

827
00:45:57,119 --> 00:46:01,000
like I maybe saw the Munich movie long time ago,

828
00:46:01,239 --> 00:46:03,000
kind of knew a little bit of what was going on,

829
00:46:03,039 --> 00:46:07,239
but I definitely never really thought about the idea of

830
00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:10,880
because it isn't just like an era where everybody has

831
00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:12,679
the news on their phone. Nobody like nobody has a

832
00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:14,800
smartphone or access to the internet or anything. Well the

833
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:16,440
internet is not even a thing at this point in time,

834
00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:19,480
but like nowadays, you know, if there's a shooting going

835
00:46:19,519 --> 00:46:22,559
on somewhere, like you get that news pop instantly on

836
00:46:22,599 --> 00:46:25,760
your phone, like everybody knows about it. When the shootings

837
00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:29,199
were going on, and like the Olympics were still happening,

838
00:46:29,239 --> 00:46:32,800
like there was still sports events going on, because people

839
00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:35,320
just had no idea what was going on, and even

840
00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:38,719
when they knew that there were terrorists like holding this team,

841
00:46:39,159 --> 00:46:42,480
they still were just having the Olympics. And I think

842
00:46:42,559 --> 00:46:44,840
that I think they do a good job in the

843
00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:48,800
movie at kind of showcasing the reasons behind that. It's

844
00:46:48,880 --> 00:46:54,760
not so much it's I feel like it's probably mostly

845
00:46:54,960 --> 00:47:00,880
because of just the lack of like me coverage and

846
00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:02,760
the sense of just what was available at then, like

847
00:47:03,039 --> 00:47:06,400
just not many people knew that it was actually happening,

848
00:47:06,480 --> 00:47:09,039
even though you know, ABC was live covering it. It's

849
00:47:09,079 --> 00:47:13,199
just like people at the events weren't seeing those like

850
00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:16,119
the ABC coverages, right, the only people that got the

851
00:47:16,159 --> 00:47:19,960
news for ABC would have been people and other places

852
00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:24,880
of the world, or like the athletes actually in the compound,

853
00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:28,320
which yeah, I'll get to that when I get that,

854
00:47:28,679 --> 00:47:32,480
but yeah, I know, it was just really shocking of

855
00:47:32,559 --> 00:47:36,400
having like the anchor like commenting on what was going on, like, yeah, okay,

856
00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:38,360
you see the shooters here, and then that's just go

857
00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:41,320
back to volleyball, and these volleyball players have no idea

858
00:47:41,320 --> 00:47:45,599
what's going on. And he's even making like just remarks

859
00:47:45,599 --> 00:47:47,559
in the sense of like isn't this just insane? How

860
00:47:47,639 --> 00:47:50,360
like there's a fucking terrorist hold up and then now

861
00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:53,000
we're going to see some volleyball. Like I just couldn't

862
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:57,159
imagine having that information, like just knowing that and then

863
00:47:57,199 --> 00:47:59,840
seeing that, Like it's just such a crazy, stark contrast.

864
00:48:01,119 --> 00:48:04,679
So yeah, that was pretty eye opening in that regard.

865
00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:09,960
And yeah, I just thought it was pretty surreal honestly

866
00:48:10,159 --> 00:48:13,280
of again, like just how much we take for granted

867
00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:16,840
of getting access to information, how quickly we get it too.

868
00:48:16,920 --> 00:48:19,639
But yeah, I oh yeah, That's what I was gonna say,

869
00:48:19,679 --> 00:48:24,360
is like partly is probably the majority of it is

870
00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:27,719
just the lack of access, but also just the whole

871
00:48:27,760 --> 00:48:33,000
idea of this Munich, like this German Olympics nineteen seventy

872
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:37,880
two Munich, you know, coming off of it's not right after,

873
00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:40,320
but like it's still very much in the forethought of

874
00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:43,039
people's minds. Just everything that went on with world World

875
00:48:43,039 --> 00:48:47,000
War Two, the Holocaust, all that stuff just kind of

876
00:48:47,039 --> 00:48:50,679
like the re just I guess healing of everything that

877
00:48:50,719 --> 00:48:54,360
went on, Like it's still a wound that's extremely fresh

878
00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:56,679
at this point in time. And that's another thing that

879
00:48:56,719 --> 00:48:58,960
they really do a good job at highlighting in this film.

880
00:48:59,599 --> 00:49:02,000
I kind of you mentioned the tone, but even just

881
00:49:03,360 --> 00:49:08,159
like all of the consequences I think of like like

882
00:49:08,280 --> 00:49:15,639
let's say, like political, yeah, all all the political I'm

883
00:49:15,639 --> 00:49:19,039
missing the word for it, but basically the political penalties

884
00:49:19,119 --> 00:49:23,960
that Germany faced for the events of just everything that

885
00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:26,199
went on with the Olympic or my gosh, with the Olympics,

886
00:49:26,199 --> 00:49:28,719
World War two, Holocausts, all that stuff. Like they're like

887
00:49:28,760 --> 00:49:31,880
they're not actually able to even have the military in

888
00:49:32,039 --> 00:49:36,519
those areas because of just treaties of and stuff like that.

889
00:49:36,920 --> 00:49:40,880
So yeah, like anti terrorist group basically the non existent

890
00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:43,400
They do a good job at highlighting that. Like a

891
00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:45,000
lot of the cops that are kind of handling the

892
00:49:45,079 --> 00:49:48,639
situation are like Sunday cops that, like you like they

893
00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:50,320
barely know how to hand out a speed and ticket,

894
00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:55,559
let alone deal with a terrorist threat, and like, yeah,

895
00:49:55,599 --> 00:49:58,880
like they don't really have the capabilities to do it.

896
00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:04,760
They're extremely Underquali five and like worse worst case scenario. Well, yeah,

897
00:50:04,960 --> 00:50:08,360
any human life is super precious for sure, But just

898
00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:13,239
the idea of like Israelites, like Jewish people like again

899
00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:15,960
under threat in Germany, Like they do a good job

900
00:50:15,960 --> 00:50:18,760
at kind of just kind of high highlighting that focus

901
00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:23,320
and how important of don't fucking let this happen and

902
00:50:23,360 --> 00:50:26,960
this is horrible that it's happening on German grounds, like

903
00:50:28,039 --> 00:50:30,800
just that type of threat. And they even have certain

904
00:50:31,719 --> 00:50:34,679
like board members. I don't want to say downplay in

905
00:50:34,679 --> 00:50:43,280
the event, but maybe just not necessarily, not necessarily like

906
00:50:43,320 --> 00:50:45,079
I almost want to say, like brush under the rug,

907
00:50:45,119 --> 00:50:48,280
like they are really their whole goal is to make

908
00:50:48,320 --> 00:50:52,280
Germany look good, and I think that's and maybe that's

909
00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:55,320
something that's inaccurate. And I did already mention like I'm

910
00:50:55,320 --> 00:50:57,320
not super well versed, so I do apologize if I'm

911
00:50:57,599 --> 00:51:01,119
I'm saying something that is historic history. I'm not gonna

912
00:51:01,320 --> 00:51:07,719
I'm gonna do my best to basically not be SuperFin

913
00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:10,119
like definitive with my my terms and everything. I'm just

914
00:51:10,119 --> 00:51:12,719
gonna be judging the movie and what it is, not necessarily,

915
00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:14,800
what's accurate, what's not because I I'm definitely not the

916
00:51:14,800 --> 00:51:17,360
guy for that. I'm definitely not the history buff in

917
00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:20,920
that game. But anyways, they they do a good job

918
00:51:21,039 --> 00:51:23,559
at basically a long winded way of saying, they do

919
00:51:23,599 --> 00:51:26,400
a good job of just setting the tone and the tensions,

920
00:51:26,440 --> 00:51:29,159
and not just because it's a terrorist event, it's a

921
00:51:29,159 --> 00:51:33,679
it's a much much more special is the right word.

922
00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:37,039
It sounds too positive, just just the significance I think

923
00:51:37,079 --> 00:51:39,320
of this event. They do a good job at highlighting that.

924
00:51:39,360 --> 00:51:42,079
And it's many different factors, not just because it's a

925
00:51:42,599 --> 00:51:46,519
terrorists event, not just because it's Israeli at athletes, you know,

926
00:51:47,159 --> 00:51:50,880
Jewish people like on German soil losing their lives. Nothing

927
00:51:50,920 --> 00:51:55,320
like well aspects to it, for sure, But there's also

928
00:51:55,519 --> 00:51:57,239
like the idea of like this being like the first

929
00:51:57,280 --> 00:52:02,000
ever live documented or sorry, live streamed. I don't even

930
00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:03,760
know if they called it stream back then live just

931
00:52:03,800 --> 00:52:05,920
goes to show, you know, the era that I'm used

932
00:52:05,960 --> 00:52:08,280
to living in live stream, but I guess live televised

933
00:52:08,280 --> 00:52:12,119
there you go, live broadcast, yeah, first ever. So many

934
00:52:12,119 --> 00:52:14,760
different factors as to why this was a super significant event,

935
00:52:16,199 --> 00:52:19,719
extremely tragic obviously anytime people lose their lives, but especially

936
00:52:19,800 --> 00:52:26,159
in such a heinous and just evil, absolutely evil event. Yeah.

937
00:52:26,199 --> 00:52:28,320
I thought they did a great job though, at that

938
00:52:28,480 --> 00:52:33,320
storytelling of it. So yes, that's it's take a liar

939
00:52:33,400 --> 00:52:36,280
sip here and then look at my notes, you know,

940
00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:38,519
let's take a quick at break. We're actually I was

941
00:52:38,559 --> 00:52:40,280
worried this was going to be a very quick episode,

942
00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:44,639
but we're making good time. So thanks for sticking with me,

943
00:52:44,719 --> 00:52:49,119
and we'll be right back. And we're back. I forgot

944
00:52:49,159 --> 00:52:57,440
to take drinks. Sorry, Okay, where was I was giving

945
00:52:57,480 --> 00:53:02,440
my thoughts on? Yeah, basically just the tone of the movie.

946
00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:04,119
The pace heme was really good at the score I

947
00:53:04,159 --> 00:53:10,039
had already mentioned was really phenomenal. The yeah, I kind

948
00:53:10,039 --> 00:53:14,280
of already touched upon. But just how as someone that

949
00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:18,320
isn't super familiar with all the real details of what

950
00:53:18,360 --> 00:53:24,199
went on in Germany during nineteen seventy two Olympics event

951
00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:32,239
that had occurred, I really enjoyed I guess, I guess

952
00:53:32,280 --> 00:53:36,599
just how the information was coming to our characters, like

953
00:53:36,639 --> 00:53:40,440
our ABC broadcasters like of course, their job is to

954
00:53:40,519 --> 00:53:42,480
tell the story no matter what it is, no matter

955
00:53:42,480 --> 00:53:45,239
how horrific or whatever it is. They're just their point

956
00:53:45,320 --> 00:53:47,400
a camera and that's what their job is. Their their

957
00:53:47,519 --> 00:53:50,800
job is to just tell the message to you know,

958
00:53:50,920 --> 00:53:54,239
be the ones that give you the news. But at

959
00:53:54,280 --> 00:53:57,239
the end of the day, these are still humans. And

960
00:53:57,840 --> 00:54:00,639
another great thing that this movie does is just I

961
00:54:00,639 --> 00:54:05,840
think highlight that in maybe maybe like the different calibers

962
00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:12,360
of what like how someone would just handle this right,

963
00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:16,679
like it's a super heavy thing even just like I

964
00:54:16,679 --> 00:54:19,440
don't know, like just thinking about like the fact that

965
00:54:19,480 --> 00:54:21,400
like super innocent people can be going through like a

966
00:54:21,400 --> 00:54:25,079
horrorrific terror attack like that, which still happens today. It's

967
00:54:25,639 --> 00:54:27,960
happened throughout all of human history. It probably will never

968
00:54:28,079 --> 00:54:31,760
end as long as we're here. As horrifying and terrible

969
00:54:31,800 --> 00:54:34,119
as that sounds, that's just kind of the reality of it.

970
00:54:34,199 --> 00:54:38,960
But you know, let's not get too sad about it

971
00:54:39,079 --> 00:54:43,079
on ourselves. But yeah, just the people that are running

972
00:54:43,119 --> 00:54:45,119
the show and telling the story, like they are still humans,

973
00:54:45,159 --> 00:54:49,239
and with all humans there's different levels of compassion and whatnot.

974
00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:53,880
And I think they do a good job at making

975
00:54:53,960 --> 00:54:59,079
it feel like everyone truly is like on the human

976
00:54:59,199 --> 00:55:02,360
side of it and just not necessarily invested in telling

977
00:55:02,400 --> 00:55:05,199
the story. But just these are human lives at stake,

978
00:55:05,239 --> 00:55:07,920
and there is a few instances on maybe just the

979
00:55:07,960 --> 00:55:10,280
moral dilemma of like is this something that we should

980
00:55:10,280 --> 00:55:14,039
even be really broadcasting, Like like what if the parents

981
00:55:14,280 --> 00:55:18,480
of whoever sees their son just get his head shot off, right,

982
00:55:18,519 --> 00:55:20,719
Because that's the reality of it, Like it was live broadcast.

983
00:55:20,760 --> 00:55:23,760
It could have happened at any point in time when

984
00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:27,119
the camera's rolling, just it's uncensored, Like they can't control that.

985
00:55:27,320 --> 00:55:31,119
So yeah, like like some of the characters really feel

986
00:55:31,119 --> 00:55:36,119
that heavy on them, and I well, actually, for the

987
00:55:36,159 --> 00:55:37,880
most part, I feel like all the characters show that

988
00:55:37,920 --> 00:55:41,320
throughout the whole film. And again, you know, maybe this

989
00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:44,159
is a little bit of a spoilery thing, but at

990
00:55:44,159 --> 00:55:50,320
the end of the movie, I didn't want to get

991
00:55:50,360 --> 00:55:53,159
there yet. But whatever, at the end of the movie,

992
00:55:54,119 --> 00:55:58,400
worst thing, worst, absolute worst case scenario happens. All of

993
00:55:58,440 --> 00:56:00,639
the hostages ended up losing their lives. They were all

994
00:56:00,719 --> 00:56:05,840
shot and killed by the terrorists. Yeah, super gut wrenching that.

995
00:56:05,920 --> 00:56:07,239
This is one of those moments at the end of

996
00:56:07,280 --> 00:56:09,519
film where it's just like it just punches you and

997
00:56:09,599 --> 00:56:12,639
you're just like, man, like I cannot believe it. So

998
00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:15,960
again that for people that probably were really familiar with this,

999
00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:17,840
they saw this coming and it wouldn't have been surprising

1000
00:56:17,920 --> 00:56:21,239
at all, but for someone that wasn't familiar. I like

1001
00:56:21,760 --> 00:56:23,599
the movie did a good job at I think just

1002
00:56:23,639 --> 00:56:27,800
delivering that and really making you feel just awful and

1003
00:56:27,880 --> 00:56:30,679
just just yeah, like man like it's just just just

1004
00:56:30,760 --> 00:56:32,920
sad like. I think they do a good job at that.

1005
00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:35,400
But getting back to my point about just the different

1006
00:56:35,639 --> 00:56:39,880
moral levels in some of these characters. Our main yeah,

1007
00:56:40,079 --> 00:56:42,119
I'll say our main character in the film. Let me

1008
00:56:42,199 --> 00:56:49,440
just get his name, John Magaro, who plays jeff Jeffrey Mason.

1009
00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:53,320
He's kind of our main control room lead. I don't

1010
00:56:53,400 --> 00:56:56,599
know what position that is in news or anything like that,

1011
00:56:57,559 --> 00:57:00,679
but he's he's the one running the control room and

1012
00:57:00,920 --> 00:57:04,480
uh yeah, like at the end of this whole event,

1013
00:57:04,559 --> 00:57:06,800
because he's basically just focused on telling the story the

1014
00:57:06,800 --> 00:57:09,360
whole like he is so many people that are relying

1015
00:57:09,360 --> 00:57:13,840
on him to kinda like he's basically the quarterback in

1016
00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:18,639
in the situation of he he's the or like the director.

1017
00:57:18,679 --> 00:57:21,360
I guess, like it's like everyone has their jobs, but

1018
00:57:21,400 --> 00:57:23,960
everybody is kind of just looking at him as their general.

1019
00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:25,639
He's the one that's kind of making all these calls.

1020
00:57:25,800 --> 00:57:28,679
So he's in charge of so much going on, especially

1021
00:57:29,320 --> 00:57:33,159
just the fact that he like he isn't really supposed

1022
00:57:33,159 --> 00:57:34,880
to be covering an event like this, right, Like he's

1023
00:57:34,920 --> 00:57:37,360
a he's a their sports broadcast, Like he's supposed to

1024
00:57:37,400 --> 00:57:42,079
be focusing on wrestler or whatever the events are in Olympics.

1025
00:57:42,199 --> 00:57:45,880
I'm obviously not a big Olympics fan, but uh, hundred

1026
00:57:45,880 --> 00:57:48,039
meters dash, there you go. Let's let's let's let's show

1027
00:57:48,039 --> 00:57:49,760
some hundred meter dash. Okay, now let's go to the

1028
00:57:49,760 --> 00:57:51,639
triple jump, Like those are the things that you're normally

1029
00:57:51,679 --> 00:57:53,880
focusing on, not so much like, Okay, where's the camera

1030
00:57:53,960 --> 00:57:56,639
on this window? Let's get this terrorist with with this

1031
00:57:56,719 --> 00:57:58,960
AK forty seven, you know, like like it's a completely

1032
00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:01,199
different thing than what he should be kind of covering.

1033
00:58:01,480 --> 00:58:03,559
He has the skill set to be managing the cameras

1034
00:58:03,559 --> 00:58:06,039
and everything and managing the crews and all that, but

1035
00:58:06,440 --> 00:58:09,000
just the actual material is completely different than he would

1036
00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:10,880
have been covering. But at the other the day, it's

1037
00:58:10,880 --> 00:58:13,800
a job, and he's doing a tremendous job just handling everything.

1038
00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:17,599
There's a lot of intense decisions that he has to make,

1039
00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:19,679
like on the spot. It all kind of falls on

1040
00:58:19,760 --> 00:58:22,400
him like a director would like a quarterback would, so

1041
00:58:23,519 --> 00:58:26,079
he has all that weight on him. Again. Fast forward

1042
00:58:26,079 --> 00:58:28,760
to the end of the film, when the worst, absolute

1043
00:58:28,760 --> 00:58:31,159
worst news comes out that yeah, they're they're all dead.

1044
00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:37,159
It definitely horrifying, and it's felt by a handful of

1045
00:58:37,239 --> 00:58:41,519
characters obviously because they're they're humans, so this happens. They're

1046
00:58:41,519 --> 00:58:44,960
all just kind of I think, just in awe and

1047
00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:51,320
like in shock as to what happened. And then yeah,

1048
00:58:51,320 --> 00:58:52,960
I didn't really talk about the characters, so it's kind

1049
00:58:52,960 --> 00:58:55,320
of a weird way to unpack unpack them. But I'll

1050
00:58:55,320 --> 00:58:59,000
transition to the characters after this, after this thought. But yeah,

1051
00:58:59,079 --> 00:59:03,320
Jeffrey Mason, John mcgaro, who I had never seen this

1052
00:59:03,360 --> 00:59:07,440
guy in anything before, but he he was fantastic. All

1053
00:59:07,719 --> 00:59:10,559
the whole cast was really really good. I think there's

1054
00:59:10,559 --> 00:59:13,719
others that shine more than others, something like John mcgaro

1055
00:59:13,840 --> 00:59:17,039
was fantastic, Peter sars Guard was really really good. And

1056
00:59:17,079 --> 00:59:21,199
then Leoni Benesh I apologize that's not how you say

1057
00:59:21,199 --> 00:59:25,320
your name, but the lady that played Marianne, the German Lady,

1058
00:59:25,360 --> 00:59:28,840
she she was fantastic. I think her and John mcgaro

1059
00:59:28,960 --> 00:59:31,639
were probably my favorite in the entire movie. They were

1060
00:59:31,679 --> 00:59:36,800
just really really really good in everything, Like I think

1061
00:59:36,800 --> 00:59:39,400
they just stood out in such a different way. Like

1062
00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:41,320
Peter Starr's guard, I think because I've seen him a

1063
00:59:41,360 --> 00:59:45,760
couple of things before, I'd seen a similar range as

1064
00:59:45,760 --> 00:59:48,079
to what he was showing. But he still he still

1065
00:59:48,079 --> 00:59:53,079
did a fantastic job. But John mcgaro and and Leoni Benesh,

1066
00:59:52,360 --> 00:59:55,280
we we're just they were my they were my s

1067
00:59:55,320 --> 00:59:57,559
tiers and in this movie they were just fantastic. But

1068
00:59:58,320 --> 01:00:02,000
sorry getting off rails. Honestly, I'm pretty impressive as happened

1069
01:00:02,039 --> 01:00:05,320
more tonight, So kudos to me, and thanks for sticking

1070
01:00:05,320 --> 01:00:10,639
with me. So Jeffrey Mason, he he yeah. They the

1071
01:00:10,719 --> 01:00:13,679
day's over all the worst case scenario. All the hostages

1072
01:00:13,679 --> 01:00:17,239
are dead. Rune, who is played by Peter Sar's guard,

1073
01:00:17,280 --> 01:00:20,480
he's kind of like, I don't exactly know his role.

1074
01:00:20,519 --> 01:00:22,079
He's kind of just the head hauncho. I don't know

1075
01:00:22,079 --> 01:00:24,079
if he's like the head of ABC or something, but

1076
01:00:24,119 --> 01:00:28,599
he's definitely the one kind of making the calls like

1077
01:00:28,679 --> 01:00:31,880
he's the head guy here. And then Jeffrey Mason's the

1078
01:00:31,920 --> 01:00:35,920
guy running the control room. And then Marianne who is

1079
01:00:36,000 --> 01:00:39,920
the German lady Leany Binesh. I believe her role is

1080
01:00:40,960 --> 01:00:44,840
I guess translator, but yeah, we'll just say translator because

1081
01:00:44,840 --> 01:00:47,480
I don't know exactly what specific role she is. It's

1082
01:00:47,519 --> 01:00:51,840
probably that. But anyways, Rune asked to see Jeffrey at

1083
01:00:51,840 --> 01:00:54,159
the end of the day because it's just horrifying thing,

1084
01:00:54,480 --> 01:00:58,199
like and this is a moment where all this stuff happened,

1085
01:00:58,239 --> 01:01:00,559
and like, I don't know, you're just expecting like man,

1086
01:01:00,599 --> 01:01:03,559
like that was a heavy day, that was crazy, like

1087
01:01:03,639 --> 01:01:05,360
are you all right? You know, just like get that

1088
01:01:05,440 --> 01:01:10,960
like natural human heart to heart moment because like they

1089
01:01:11,039 --> 01:01:13,440
kind of went through this whole thing together. Obviously they're

1090
01:01:13,519 --> 01:01:17,719
much safer than the people that were held captives and

1091
01:01:17,760 --> 01:01:20,400
everything and that we're actually in like the gunfire, but

1092
01:01:20,440 --> 01:01:23,639
still like it is a mentally draining thing. You're trying

1093
01:01:23,679 --> 01:01:27,159
to do your work, do your job with all these

1094
01:01:27,679 --> 01:01:32,199
real high stakes things going on. But uh yeah, he

1095
01:01:32,239 --> 01:01:36,039
gets called into into Rune's office and it's just a

1096
01:01:36,039 --> 01:01:38,920
total different vibe than than you kind of were expecting.

1097
01:01:38,920 --> 01:01:43,360
Where Ruin Peter Sarsguard is basically just like, man, yeah,

1098
01:01:43,599 --> 01:01:45,039
it might not feel like it beat a really good

1099
01:01:45,079 --> 01:01:48,039
job today, and he's basically just like business as usual

1100
01:01:48,119 --> 01:01:51,400
sort of attitude, like he has no like oh yeah,

1101
01:01:51,400 --> 01:01:53,960
that's horrible that happened, Like none of that addressing at all.

1102
01:01:54,079 --> 01:01:55,559
It's just like, yeah, no, that was the story that

1103
01:01:55,639 --> 01:01:58,119
was told and then tomorrow we're gonna be doing like

1104
01:01:58,119 --> 01:02:03,760
a special on They're like like he's basically just like no, no,

1105
01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:06,159
I don't want to say no compassion. It feels like

1106
01:02:06,159 --> 01:02:09,719
no compassion, but it's really just like a total lack

1107
01:02:09,880 --> 01:02:14,599
of like caring and I think for our character of

1108
01:02:14,679 --> 01:02:16,599
Jeffrey Mason, like it kind of just put it in

1109
01:02:16,639 --> 01:02:19,639
perspective there. Oh, I also didn't mention it, but it

1110
01:02:19,719 --> 01:02:22,039
seems like this is like his first day on the job,

1111
01:02:22,119 --> 01:02:26,119
so what a wild first day coming into the fold

1112
01:02:26,199 --> 01:02:29,920
here and yeah, no, it's like obviously he did his

1113
01:02:30,039 --> 01:02:33,199
job well, but it's just it's such a different like

1114
01:02:33,440 --> 01:02:35,800
it it feels like a synthetic reaction like it it

1115
01:02:36,039 --> 01:02:39,639
feels like something that you wouldn't actually be you know,

1116
01:02:40,119 --> 01:02:44,239
witness too. But uh, I think that's very much the

1117
01:02:44,280 --> 01:02:47,719
reality of like media across the board, Like at the

1118
01:02:47,800 --> 01:02:49,239
end of the day, their job is to just kind

1119
01:02:49,239 --> 01:02:52,079
of tell the stories, not get emotionally evolved. I think

1120
01:02:52,079 --> 01:02:54,719
it's extremely hard in many instances and probably is for

1121
01:02:54,760 --> 01:02:59,519
a lot of people, but like I I because yeah,

1122
01:02:59,599 --> 01:03:01,480
I can have do that job. I think just covering

1123
01:03:01,639 --> 01:03:07,039
like dour subjects and just like terrorist attacks and everything, like,

1124
01:03:07,079 --> 01:03:08,559
I think it would just weigh on me as as

1125
01:03:08,559 --> 01:03:10,559
a human being, just always getting my head focused in

1126
01:03:10,639 --> 01:03:12,559
around that stuff. That's why, that's why I'm not even

1127
01:03:12,599 --> 01:03:14,159
really on like a lot of social medias because I

1128
01:03:14,199 --> 01:03:16,960
just feel like a lot of the twenty four hour

1129
01:03:17,000 --> 01:03:19,880
news cycle stuff, they just the algorithms. They know that

1130
01:03:19,920 --> 01:03:23,679
outrage kind of gets clicks and gets people's attention because

1131
01:03:23,719 --> 01:03:25,840
it's just human behavior. But I just try and stay

1132
01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:28,400
away from that, trying and keep positive things on my timeline.

1133
01:03:28,400 --> 01:03:29,639
I'm not gonna say I try and just live in

1134
01:03:29,679 --> 01:03:31,920
a bubble and pretend everything's fine and Danny, I know

1135
01:03:31,960 --> 01:03:35,039
there's bad things out there, but you can definitely get

1136
01:03:35,199 --> 01:03:40,079
analysis paralysis with many topics and negative ones. I think

1137
01:03:40,079 --> 01:03:42,079
it's I think it's just a down. I think it's

1138
01:03:42,079 --> 01:03:48,360
a detriment. I don't think it's a good thing. But anyways, anyways, yeah, no,

1139
01:03:48,440 --> 01:03:52,360
I think the scene is really it really hits because

1140
01:03:53,920 --> 01:03:57,519
Jeffrey Mason's character before he goes to see Run who

1141
01:03:57,559 --> 01:04:02,440
has like the very I guess cold hearted reaction and

1142
01:04:02,480 --> 01:04:06,880
like answer to what's going on. Benjamin Walker, you know,

1143
01:04:06,960 --> 01:04:09,360
got gil Galad come in and he just wants to

1144
01:04:09,360 --> 01:04:11,679
work with him, going over like yeah, you know what

1145
01:04:11,760 --> 01:04:13,760
for our one hour special tomorrow, we need to go

1146
01:04:13,840 --> 01:04:17,079
to the airport right away because that like the helicopter's

1147
01:04:17,119 --> 01:04:21,639
probably still burnt and exploded, and like like it's just

1148
01:04:21,760 --> 01:04:24,320
no like remorse for like the victims or like anything

1149
01:04:24,360 --> 01:04:26,400
like that. Like it's very much just how can we

1150
01:04:26,440 --> 01:04:28,760
profit off of this? And I think for our character

1151
01:04:28,800 --> 01:04:31,519
of Jeffrey Mason, he kind of realizes like that's the

1152
01:04:31,519 --> 01:04:36,480
reality of what's going on there, and yeah, it was.

1153
01:04:36,480 --> 01:04:38,079
It was just really well done. Oh yeah, That's why

1154
01:04:38,079 --> 01:04:40,000
I was saying that, because before he goes to see Rune,

1155
01:04:40,199 --> 01:04:44,079
he's having just dialogue with mari Anne, who Marianne is

1156
01:04:44,440 --> 01:04:47,280
honestly like probably the MVP of his entire adventure. She's

1157
01:04:47,360 --> 01:04:49,679
like the one German translator that had She does so

1158
01:04:49,760 --> 01:04:52,519
much work in order to get information across from the

1159
01:04:53,039 --> 01:04:57,400
German police scanner that they have that she's kind of

1160
01:04:57,400 --> 01:05:00,000
listening on to get just more information of what's happening

1161
01:05:00,079 --> 01:05:03,559
in real time to she actually goes like to the

1162
01:05:03,599 --> 01:05:11,840
airport because I didn't mention it, but the long story short, basically,

1163
01:05:11,920 --> 01:05:15,519
the the terrorist groups are trying to get like out

1164
01:05:15,519 --> 01:05:19,840
of there, so they're getting the sorry they get get

1165
01:05:19,840 --> 01:05:22,639
the hostages on a bus, then on a helicopter, goes

1166
01:05:22,679 --> 01:05:25,320
to a military base and then from there they're hopefully

1167
01:05:25,400 --> 01:05:28,119
gonna get a airplane to Cairo, and that's kind of

1168
01:05:28,119 --> 01:05:31,920
their escape plan. So fast forward to where we are

1169
01:05:32,119 --> 01:05:34,159
later on. They get them on the bus, they get

1170
01:05:34,199 --> 01:05:36,039
them on the on the helicopter, then they're going to

1171
01:05:36,079 --> 01:05:39,280
the military base, and then kind of all the media

1172
01:05:39,519 --> 01:05:43,199
is starting to follow them, and then that's where Jeffrey Mason,

1173
01:05:43,360 --> 01:05:48,599
John mcgarrough's character sends Marianne as well as Hank Hanson,

1174
01:05:48,880 --> 01:05:54,039
a audio man, and uh Carter Jeffrey haven't mentioned these

1175
01:05:54,079 --> 01:05:56,920
guys' names. They're they're they're all right side characters. Definitely

1176
01:05:56,960 --> 01:05:59,519
side characters though, but basically a camera guy, an audio guy,

1177
01:05:59,519 --> 01:06:01,320
and then Mary and because she's the only one that

1178
01:06:01,320 --> 01:06:05,719
speaks German to just go get live coverage, and she

1179
01:06:06,079 --> 01:06:10,039
was there like the whole time that the just the

1180
01:06:10,079 --> 01:06:13,679
events were happening at the airport, and I feel like

1181
01:06:13,760 --> 01:06:17,400
all of this is an extremely just heavy weight that

1182
01:06:17,440 --> 01:06:23,400
she's carrying like the entire time of the events of everything,

1183
01:06:23,480 --> 01:06:26,199
because they do a good job at showcasing like she

1184
01:06:26,440 --> 01:06:30,000
is I don't know, I'm gonna say less than thirty

1185
01:06:30,119 --> 01:06:32,320
in this movie, Like she seems like she's probably in

1186
01:06:32,360 --> 01:06:37,880
her late twenties, maybe early thirties, and yeah, she's probably

1187
01:06:37,920 --> 01:06:40,559
younger than that, but still just a child that grew

1188
01:06:40,639 --> 01:06:45,159
up kinda I would say, like in the era like

1189
01:06:45,360 --> 01:06:47,119
just after World War Two, and that's kind of what

1190
01:06:47,199 --> 01:06:51,880
she's been grown up in, been grown up in, raised in,

1191
01:06:51,920 --> 01:06:57,760
I guess in Germany, and just she very much feels

1192
01:06:59,679 --> 01:07:04,880
like like the blame of what Germany is blamed for,

1193
01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:08,239
Like like I think she is in that era of

1194
01:07:08,280 --> 01:07:14,280
like really feeling the what's the word I'm looking for, Like, uh,

1195
01:07:14,719 --> 01:07:19,400
just the like the shame I think of of the

1196
01:07:19,440 --> 01:07:23,400
events that happened. Because of course not all German definitely

1197
01:07:23,400 --> 01:07:25,679
not all Germans or evil or anything like that. But

1198
01:07:27,119 --> 01:07:30,760
I think the perception of a lot of the world

1199
01:07:30,760 --> 01:07:32,679
maybe around this time, is just kind of Germany is

1200
01:07:32,719 --> 01:07:35,440
the enemy, not so much just Hitler or the Nazis

1201
01:07:35,519 --> 01:07:38,880
or anything like that, just just Germany. Is the Emeny

1202
01:07:39,320 --> 01:07:42,159
is the Emeny is the enemy? And uh they even

1203
01:07:42,239 --> 01:07:44,920
kind of showcase that with other characters in their dialogue

1204
01:07:45,639 --> 01:07:49,800
around certain events, especially like amongst some of like the

1205
01:07:49,880 --> 01:07:52,840
Jewish crew members on the ABC team, Like of course

1206
01:07:52,920 --> 01:07:56,960
they would be super angry, rightfully so for everything that

1207
01:07:57,000 --> 01:08:01,480
went on around Germany. But this character, Mary Anne, I

1208
01:08:01,519 --> 01:08:03,519
think she really does a good job at, like the

1209
01:08:03,559 --> 01:08:06,000
actress Leoni Binesh, I think she does a good job

1210
01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:11,400
at kind of making it, making it like trying to

1211
01:08:11,440 --> 01:08:15,440
be a good example of the generation of Germany that

1212
01:08:15,519 --> 01:08:18,760
wants to go forward and not necessarily just forget everything

1213
01:08:18,800 --> 01:08:20,880
that happened, but how can we learn from that and

1214
01:08:20,920 --> 01:08:26,000
move forward and yeah, just be a good country, right

1215
01:08:26,079 --> 01:08:28,840
like like like you can't just be in that box

1216
01:08:28,880 --> 01:08:34,760
of evil forever, especially if they're not genuinely that because like, yeah, no,

1217
01:08:34,920 --> 01:08:40,239
I think she's a good representation. I think of just

1218
01:08:40,880 --> 01:08:44,000
like a German around this time that that does kind

1219
01:08:44,000 --> 01:08:46,920
of feel that way. So throughout the whole film, she's

1220
01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:52,840
kind of is that representation on the crew obviously she's

1221
01:08:52,880 --> 01:08:57,239
like the only German there. But long winded way of

1222
01:08:57,239 --> 01:09:00,760
saying she she feels the shame of Germany and kind

1223
01:09:00,760 --> 01:09:05,359
of how horrible this is because especially if you're trying

1224
01:09:05,359 --> 01:09:10,600
to like rebuild your image on the on the national

1225
01:09:10,640 --> 01:09:13,600
scale for Germany, this is like absolutely the worst thing

1226
01:09:13,600 --> 01:09:17,439
that you would want, right, like just have a terrorist attack,

1227
01:09:17,479 --> 01:09:21,079
but also one that's like specifically against Jewish people on

1228
01:09:21,159 --> 01:09:24,039
German soil. Like just just how much that would be

1229
01:09:24,079 --> 01:09:27,079
the last thing that they want to have, like the

1230
01:09:27,079 --> 01:09:30,520
the recovery and the rebuilding of the image on the

1231
01:09:30,880 --> 01:09:34,520
national scale. But yeah, so by the end of everything

1232
01:09:34,520 --> 01:09:38,319
that goes on, obviously you know, the terrorist murder, the

1233
01:09:39,439 --> 01:09:44,520
the nine remaining Israelites, and yeah, no, she just feels

1234
01:09:44,560 --> 01:09:47,840
absolutely terrible. And it's the complete opposite of a reaction

1235
01:09:48,119 --> 01:09:52,760
that Rune Peter Sarsguard's character gave to Jeffrey when Jeffrey

1236
01:09:52,800 --> 01:09:55,720
Mason goes and speaks to her and you know, like

1237
01:09:55,760 --> 01:09:59,439
how you doing. It's like not a fucking easy answer, right, Like, oh,

1238
01:09:59,800 --> 01:10:03,319
she's terrible. More Jewish people died on German So like

1239
01:10:03,359 --> 01:10:06,000
she just feels so much weight there and great emotion

1240
01:10:06,560 --> 01:10:10,439
shown from the actress in that scene. Yeah no, like

1241
01:10:10,439 --> 01:10:13,960
I felt emotionally involved with everything. I think it's mostly

1242
01:10:14,039 --> 01:10:18,359
just because of the storytelling and of course the phenomenal

1243
01:10:18,560 --> 01:10:23,760
just performances of the actors. But yeah, just I think

1244
01:10:23,840 --> 01:10:28,760
I was naive. Well, obviously I'm not the most knowledgeable,

1245
01:10:29,079 --> 01:10:32,079
definitely not the most knowledgeable on everything that happened around

1246
01:10:32,119 --> 01:10:34,760
this event, but I think I had some like false,

1247
01:10:34,960 --> 01:10:40,239
naive hope of that they would get out of there somehow,

1248
01:10:40,319 --> 01:10:45,720
because yeah, because something that I'll mention after I talk

1249
01:10:45,760 --> 01:10:48,960
about the characters. So already talked about Marianna a lot.

1250
01:10:48,960 --> 01:10:52,800
She's fantastic. I absolutely loved her. Leoni binesh really haven't

1251
01:10:52,920 --> 01:10:55,039
I checked her IMDb. There's like three projects that she's

1252
01:10:55,079 --> 01:10:57,880
been a part of. She is so fantastic, Like she

1253
01:10:57,880 --> 01:11:02,439
she is such a great actress. So I'm definitely not

1254
01:11:02,640 --> 01:11:05,840
probably gonna be checking out other Oscar films this year

1255
01:11:05,920 --> 01:11:08,439
and getting ready for the Oscars. But uh, you know,

1256
01:11:08,600 --> 01:11:11,840
if if best supporting actress comes up, and uh, I

1257
01:11:11,840 --> 01:11:13,359
don't even know if it'd be supporting actress. I don't

1258
01:11:13,359 --> 01:11:15,000
even know how genres work. I clearly have a hard

1259
01:11:15,000 --> 01:11:17,439
time with that in our own golden geeks. But yeah,

1260
01:11:17,439 --> 01:11:19,279
if she pops up there and she wins, I'm gonna

1261
01:11:19,279 --> 01:11:21,640
be so happy. She is fantastic. I thought she was

1262
01:11:21,880 --> 01:11:28,560
really really great. Jeffrey already mentioned really great and uh yeah,

1263
01:11:28,600 --> 01:11:31,800
and then Peter Sarsgard's character was he was really good

1264
01:11:31,880 --> 01:11:34,079
at at what he was doing, but just not really

1265
01:11:34,159 --> 01:11:36,319
stand out y. And then there's a couple other ones

1266
01:11:37,359 --> 01:11:40,039
that were that were definitely good. But I felt like

1267
01:11:40,479 --> 01:11:44,199
those two of John mcgarough and Leoni Minesh were my

1268
01:11:44,359 --> 01:11:52,880
standouts by far. Okay, let's get actually, let's get back

1269
01:11:52,880 --> 01:11:54,279
to the story there, because it was kind of alluding

1270
01:11:54,520 --> 01:11:57,199
as to I kind of jumped around all the place,

1271
01:11:57,239 --> 01:11:59,159
like again, I apologize, this is this is all new

1272
01:11:59,159 --> 01:12:03,319
for me. I'm learning as them going. But essentially the

1273
01:12:07,359 --> 01:12:10,760
oh yeah, I was mentioning at the end that the

1274
01:12:10,800 --> 01:12:14,239
worst of the worst happens of the and again, I

1275
01:12:14,279 --> 01:12:16,359
guess now we're in spoilers, So I apologize if I already

1276
01:12:16,399 --> 01:12:18,079
kind of spoiled the move for you. If you're here

1277
01:12:18,079 --> 01:12:19,800
at this point, I feel like you're kind of either

1278
01:12:19,920 --> 01:12:22,319
already know the movie or you know that you probably

1279
01:12:22,359 --> 01:12:23,800
won't watch it, so you just want to hear my thoughts.

1280
01:12:23,800 --> 01:12:27,640
And if that's the case, hey, I appreciate you, Taylor Field.

1281
01:12:27,640 --> 01:12:34,000
I know you're listening to this. Appreciate you so Anyways, Yeah,

1282
01:12:34,039 --> 01:12:37,079
the worst of the worst happens. But before this, uh,

1283
01:12:37,119 --> 01:12:41,840
there's some major major false hope where they get word

1284
01:12:42,119 --> 01:12:46,159
from a couple of unconfirmed source sources. I believe one

1285
01:12:46,199 --> 01:12:49,039
of them is just a straight up like German news channel.

1286
01:12:49,640 --> 01:12:53,279
Even Marion, who's at the airport, is hearing some murmurs

1287
01:12:53,279 --> 01:12:58,239
that all the hostages got out, they all escape, there's

1288
01:12:58,239 --> 01:13:01,640
no more shooting. It seems seems like best case scenario

1289
01:13:01,720 --> 01:13:05,199
is kind of happening here, and uh, everyone kind of

1290
01:13:05,279 --> 01:13:08,760
jumps the gun. There's there's a big there's a big

1291
01:13:08,760 --> 01:13:12,000
dilemma I guess, a moral dilemma between a couple of

1292
01:13:12,000 --> 01:13:13,640
the people that are making the call of like do

1293
01:13:13,720 --> 01:13:16,279
we say that everyone's alive because we're the only ones

1294
01:13:16,319 --> 01:13:19,439
live broadcasting this, so the repercussions are extremely major. As

1295
01:13:19,479 --> 01:13:22,439
soon as we say they're alive or dead, everyone is

1296
01:13:22,479 --> 01:13:28,039
going to be repeating that message. And I do think that, uh, like,

1297
01:13:28,479 --> 01:13:30,439
although they do kind of jump the gun, I think

1298
01:13:30,479 --> 01:13:33,560
it's it is pretty justified that they do say that

1299
01:13:33,600 --> 01:13:38,439
they all escaped on air. Because the I can't remember

1300
01:13:38,439 --> 01:13:40,520
his name, but like one of the chiefs board of

1301
01:13:40,560 --> 01:13:42,920
like the Olympics, things that are going on that is

1302
01:13:43,920 --> 01:13:47,439
a German fellow is on the air on the news

1303
01:13:47,520 --> 01:13:49,800
mentioning that, you know, like it's it's all good, we're

1304
01:13:49,840 --> 01:13:53,760
all we're all finding Dandy, all the hostages escaped, everyone's good.

1305
01:13:54,720 --> 01:13:57,159
So because he says all this, it kind of like

1306
01:13:57,479 --> 01:14:00,560
solidifies that, like, okay, no, we can say that. So

1307
01:14:00,640 --> 01:14:04,439
I think ABC's team is they are okay with saying that,

1308
01:14:04,479 --> 01:14:06,279
even though you know, technically you should be waiting for

1309
01:14:06,319 --> 01:14:10,880
those solid sources confirming all these events, Like I think

1310
01:14:10,920 --> 01:14:13,439
they say you need at least two to really mention it.

1311
01:14:14,439 --> 01:14:17,079
I feel like they were getting good word and then

1312
01:14:17,840 --> 01:14:20,239
the German news were reporting that, and then they get

1313
01:14:20,279 --> 01:14:24,560
the classic like nineteen seventies printer thing telling like confirming

1314
01:14:24,640 --> 01:14:28,560
that it's good to go, everyone's cheering, happy and of course,

1315
01:14:28,600 --> 01:14:31,319
but like because I'm just naive, I don't exactly know

1316
01:14:32,159 --> 01:14:35,279
knew what happened back then, I'm like, man, that's like

1317
01:14:35,319 --> 01:14:38,520
that's crazy how they actually got out like that, that's

1318
01:14:38,560 --> 01:14:41,359
really fantastic. Oh my gosh, I'm sorry, I need some

1319
01:14:41,399 --> 01:14:50,279
more water, getting a little scratchy throat. Okay, sorry, yeah no,

1320
01:14:50,359 --> 01:14:53,079
so best case scenario, they well, not best case scenario.

1321
01:14:53,079 --> 01:14:54,760
Best case snario that would have been they all get out,

1322
01:14:54,800 --> 01:14:58,760
but nine out of the eleven escaped. They're they're fine.

1323
01:14:59,279 --> 01:15:03,560
The ABC through they're cheering obviously because they're super happy

1324
01:15:03,760 --> 01:15:08,520
that the hostages got out. They're cracking beers there, they're

1325
01:15:08,560 --> 01:15:13,800
having a good time. And then fast forward it's not

1326
01:15:14,000 --> 01:15:16,399
exactly the case and we find out that there's still

1327
01:15:16,479 --> 01:15:20,119
shots going on. It's hell in a handbasket. It is

1328
01:15:20,479 --> 01:15:23,159
just not good. It's basically the complete opposite as to

1329
01:15:23,199 --> 01:15:28,199
what they just got confirmed reports from all the hostages

1330
01:15:28,600 --> 01:15:31,760
were killed, One of the helicopters was on fire, just

1331
01:15:31,760 --> 01:15:39,159
just absolute warzone type setting of just gunfire, everything. Everything

1332
01:15:39,239 --> 01:15:43,840
was horrible. And this was like the big moment in

1333
01:15:43,880 --> 01:15:45,960
the movie that just felt like a major gut punch

1334
01:15:46,000 --> 01:15:49,920
where they give you like like they're cracking beers, they're celebrating.

1335
01:15:49,960 --> 01:15:53,319
Everything's good, and then just a few minutes later, you know,

1336
01:15:53,520 --> 01:15:56,399
the the buzz of the beers they just slammed is

1337
01:15:56,479 --> 01:16:00,439
just hitting them. And then they get word that, yeah, no,

1338
01:16:00,560 --> 01:16:02,479
not only did we just tell the whole world, well

1339
01:16:02,520 --> 01:16:04,600
not only did they all just die, but we just

1340
01:16:04,640 --> 01:16:06,600
told the whole world that they that they weren't. So

1341
01:16:06,640 --> 01:16:09,680
how do we backtrack this and there's definitely no easy

1342
01:16:09,680 --> 01:16:10,720
way to do it. They just have to hit it

1343
01:16:10,760 --> 01:16:15,479
head on. And yeah, I think that part of the

1344
01:16:15,479 --> 01:16:20,760
movie just really like made my jaw drop, and uh yeah,

1345
01:16:20,800 --> 01:16:23,600
Like I think the whole event of the Munich terror

1346
01:16:23,600 --> 01:16:28,039
attack terrorist attack was horrible for so many different reasons,

1347
01:16:28,119 --> 01:16:30,960
but just like the way that it was told in

1348
01:16:31,000 --> 01:16:33,399
the sense of like, no, yeah, they're they're all they're

1349
01:16:33,439 --> 01:16:35,800
all good, they're all free, everyone's happy, we're all cheering.

1350
01:16:36,119 --> 01:16:37,880
And then you got to imagine like all the family

1351
01:16:37,920 --> 01:16:41,359
members again of the team that would have been watching

1352
01:16:41,399 --> 01:16:43,960
this one of the nine hundred million people watching this live,

1353
01:16:44,000 --> 01:16:47,159
they get that everyone's celebrating, Like it wasn't just our

1354
01:16:47,199 --> 01:16:49,520
news crew that was celebrating this a moment. I'm sure.

1355
01:16:49,560 --> 01:16:54,239
I'm sure across the world that was happening, And I

1356
01:16:54,279 --> 01:16:56,920
don't I can't confirm nor deny if that actually was

1357
01:16:56,960 --> 01:16:59,199
the case how it happened in real life. I imagine

1358
01:16:59,199 --> 01:17:02,319
it was because I don't know. It seems like they're

1359
01:17:02,359 --> 01:17:05,000
trying to stay true to it, but uh, you know,

1360
01:17:05,319 --> 01:17:09,000
I'll find out either by a terrible review in the

1361
01:17:09,039 --> 01:17:11,159
comments of someone saying I don't know what I'm talking

1362
01:17:11,199 --> 01:17:15,079
about or just my own research. So yeah, no, I

1363
01:17:15,279 --> 01:17:19,000
I thought that was just such a such a jaw drop,

1364
01:17:19,039 --> 01:17:23,760
like gut punch moment and a real great opportunity to

1365
01:17:23,880 --> 01:17:30,640
see like some great acting amongst those specifically like like

1366
01:17:30,720 --> 01:17:34,079
Jeffrey there, John mcgarough's just the way that it just

1367
01:17:34,159 --> 01:17:36,479
hit him and like realize all of that and this

1368
01:17:36,680 --> 01:17:43,640
was his call. Yeah, they really really powerful moment and yeah,

1369
01:17:44,039 --> 01:17:47,039
it just it hit me so well, so well, it

1370
01:17:47,319 --> 01:17:49,920
hit me so effectively, I think is a better way

1371
01:17:50,000 --> 01:17:52,319
to say that. And I think it a big part

1372
01:17:52,359 --> 01:17:55,960
of that is because I was fully locked in with, uh,

1373
01:17:56,319 --> 01:17:58,159
with just the whole story of what was happening and

1374
01:17:58,439 --> 01:18:01,560
how it was being told, So pacing was was great

1375
01:18:01,600 --> 01:18:04,279
for me, and just the telling of like the unraveling

1376
01:18:04,279 --> 01:18:09,239
of the story was really really powerful. And uh yeah, no,

1377
01:18:09,399 --> 01:18:12,680
I thought it was really really just powerful. It was

1378
01:18:12,880 --> 01:18:21,680
was good. There. Let's see what else did we got. Yeah,

1379
01:18:21,760 --> 01:18:25,600
let's just take a look at my notes. He I

1380
01:18:25,600 --> 01:18:28,640
thought it's something else I was gonna lead into that with,

1381
01:18:28,840 --> 01:18:36,199
But of course it's gone. The film had like an

1382
01:18:36,199 --> 01:18:40,680
interesting film effect to it. Again, big film buff nerds

1383
01:18:40,680 --> 01:18:43,239
out there are probably gonna laugh at me. For not

1384
01:18:43,319 --> 01:18:45,720
knowing the name for what it was, but I noticed

1385
01:18:45,720 --> 01:18:47,079
it at least even though I don't in the name

1386
01:18:47,079 --> 01:18:49,680
of it, and it it made it feel like an

1387
01:18:49,680 --> 01:18:54,479
older film, and I just really appreciate it. I thought

1388
01:18:54,479 --> 01:18:57,000
it it seemed like a movie kind of out of

1389
01:18:57,039 --> 01:18:59,399
time in that regard, Like it felt like an older

1390
01:18:59,479 --> 01:19:02,520
like I want to say, like VHS style, but like

1391
01:19:02,960 --> 01:19:05,119
not VHS quality, even though like it had like a

1392
01:19:05,119 --> 01:19:08,840
certain effect to it, so I don't know, film grain

1393
01:19:09,039 --> 01:19:12,079
or something is probably the term I appreciated it. So

1394
01:19:12,520 --> 01:19:16,840
I wrote it down. Yeah, I had already kind of

1395
01:19:16,840 --> 01:19:19,279
mentioned like the disassociation of the media and the real

1396
01:19:19,319 --> 01:19:21,640
event people losing their lives. I thought that was just

1397
01:19:22,079 --> 01:19:26,720
really really effective at getting that across. And it's interesting

1398
01:19:26,720 --> 01:19:29,720
because it's not something that's really relevant throughout the whole film,

1399
01:19:29,920 --> 01:19:34,640
of of like the sense of like I'm a terrible

1400
01:19:34,680 --> 01:19:36,920
person for showing this. I guess they mentioned it a

1401
01:19:36,960 --> 01:19:39,199
couple of times. And that's actually the point that I

1402
01:19:39,279 --> 01:19:42,079
kind of forgot that I wanted to mention, was the

1403
01:19:46,640 --> 01:19:49,720
oh no, ladies and gentlemen just happened again. I just

1404
01:19:49,760 --> 01:19:54,680
lost the point. I wish I could rewind in the

1405
01:19:54,680 --> 01:19:57,439
back of my mind, but I can't. I don't have

1406
01:19:57,479 --> 01:19:59,760
anyone here to bounce off of to get that idea,

1407
01:19:59,840 --> 01:20:02,680
So I'm just gonna probably keep rambling until it eventually

1408
01:20:02,760 --> 01:20:11,520
circles back into my mind. Disassociation the media, that's actually

1409
01:20:11,560 --> 01:20:13,039
what it was. There, you go, thanks for reminding me,

1410
01:20:13,359 --> 01:20:16,840
shouts out to you guys. But the basically like the

1411
01:20:16,840 --> 01:20:20,560
moral dilemma of should we be doing this? And there's

1412
01:20:20,640 --> 01:20:25,159
a point in the movie when the extremely ill equipped

1413
01:20:25,800 --> 01:20:29,560
German local law enforcement are trying to like raid the

1414
01:20:29,680 --> 01:20:33,439
hotel and save the hostages, and everyone in their grandma

1415
01:20:33,479 --> 01:20:37,039
that's watching just makes it look like these are fucking clowns.

1416
01:20:37,079 --> 01:20:44,600
These are level one, like zero experienced soldiers, and like

1417
01:20:44,640 --> 01:20:46,399
where we find out that that pretty much is the

1418
01:20:46,439 --> 01:20:48,760
case because they can't have the German military in any

1419
01:20:48,760 --> 01:20:52,960
of those areas because of like post war decrees and

1420
01:20:53,000 --> 01:20:55,159
all that stuff. I just realized it. I have my

1421
01:20:55,199 --> 01:20:57,680
weird camera. Okay, there you go. Apologies to all the

1422
01:20:57,760 --> 01:21:02,560
video viewers there, but yeah, no, it's just super ill equipped.

1423
01:21:02,600 --> 01:21:07,439
And then they ABC is filming these cops raid this building,

1424
01:21:07,560 --> 01:21:11,640
and then they realize that ABC is accessed for the

1425
01:21:11,680 --> 01:21:15,680
people inside, which you know, they're making the argument, well,

1426
01:21:16,199 --> 01:21:18,720
well no, sorry, I'm got to hit myself. They realize that,

1427
01:21:19,039 --> 01:21:22,199
and then basically the cops come in here because they

1428
01:21:22,199 --> 01:21:25,039
realize that ABC is doing this, and then they shut

1429
01:21:25,079 --> 01:21:28,800
off all the cameras and then that's when like the

1430
01:21:28,880 --> 01:21:31,640
operations basically dead. They have to pull the cops out

1431
01:21:31,680 --> 01:21:34,319
there because the terrorists are just watching them approach them,

1432
01:21:34,319 --> 01:21:37,920
so obviously it's it's not a good strategic maneuver to

1433
01:21:38,039 --> 01:21:40,960
keep that plan going. They pull the troops out, they

1434
01:21:41,479 --> 01:21:45,800
they killed the broadcast, and then our ABC News workers

1435
01:21:45,800 --> 01:21:48,560
are basically like, were we the one that caused that? Like, like,

1436
01:21:48,680 --> 01:21:53,039
is what we're doing actually putting the hostages at a

1437
01:21:53,079 --> 01:21:55,760
further risk? Right because the terrorists know exactly what's happening

1438
01:21:55,920 --> 01:21:58,279
and they're getting information from the outside because of our

1439
01:21:58,319 --> 01:22:03,239
own broadcast. I like that moment of just again highlighting

1440
01:22:03,319 --> 01:22:07,159
is of what they're doing. Is it actually should they

1441
01:22:07,199 --> 01:22:10,119
be doing it? Or is it morally wrong to be

1442
01:22:10,159 --> 01:22:13,199
doing what they're doing? And of course they bring up

1443
01:22:13,199 --> 01:22:18,199
the arguments of like well these idiot you know, anti terrorists,

1444
01:22:18,239 --> 01:22:21,960
not even anti terrorists, basically Sunday cops like if they

1445
01:22:21,960 --> 01:22:23,960
actually knew what the fuck they were doing, they would

1446
01:22:24,000 --> 01:22:25,760
know to cut the power to the building so they

1447
01:22:25,760 --> 01:22:28,880
can't get any information like that. Well, of course, then

1448
01:22:28,960 --> 01:22:32,239
it's revealed that these guys actually don't know what they're doing,

1449
01:22:32,279 --> 01:22:34,960
and they are putting on just a tough face because

1450
01:22:34,960 --> 01:22:38,000
they it's a big image thing of again like a

1451
01:22:38,680 --> 01:22:42,239
stronger United Germany, and they're not gonna let this stuff happen,

1452
01:22:42,319 --> 01:22:44,760
so they can't just obviously reveal that they have no

1453
01:22:44,800 --> 01:22:48,840
idea what they're doing. It's mentioned, not confirmed, but in

1454
01:22:49,119 --> 01:22:52,960
the movie they mentioned that like the Israeli Special Military

1455
01:22:53,640 --> 01:22:58,439
Forces whatever it is, like offered Germany's like offered, yeah,

1456
01:22:58,479 --> 01:23:00,439
to come in and help Germany, and then they say no,

1457
01:23:01,039 --> 01:23:02,840
probably just to keep up appearances. Again, I don't know

1458
01:23:02,880 --> 01:23:04,600
if that's an actual thing that happened or whatnot, but

1459
01:23:05,640 --> 01:23:07,920
it's just something else that really added to the overall

1460
01:23:08,319 --> 01:23:14,000
tone I think of like the German perspective and just

1461
01:23:14,039 --> 01:23:17,319
trying to keep that appearance, which you know, which is

1462
01:23:17,359 --> 01:23:21,199
obviously a terrible idea because priority should be the hostages

1463
01:23:21,319 --> 01:23:25,840
and the just dealing with the terrorist threat. But it

1464
01:23:25,920 --> 01:23:29,880
went a different direction. Okay, I had mentioned the film effect.

1465
01:23:30,000 --> 01:23:38,039
I remember that scene. Yeah, pace was nice Honestly, that's

1466
01:23:38,039 --> 01:23:42,600
pretty much all my notes. This episode went a lot

1467
01:23:42,640 --> 01:23:46,119
longer than I was expecting you too, and I'm glad

1468
01:23:46,159 --> 01:23:48,560
I did. It was a really one of a kind experience.

1469
01:23:48,760 --> 01:23:50,720
I made it through my own soul episode. I can't

1470
01:23:50,720 --> 01:23:53,560
believe I made it to an hour twenty Honestly, that's crazy.

1471
01:23:53,720 --> 01:23:56,319
I clearly I can just talk and talk and talk,

1472
01:23:56,359 --> 01:23:58,960
and uh, I mean, it was a good en a

1473
01:23:59,039 --> 01:24:00,520
movie that I could just upwer I get kind of

1474
01:24:00,560 --> 01:24:03,640
alone and uh, I don't know. Going through this, I

1475
01:24:03,680 --> 01:24:05,720
realized that I can actually kind of do this, So

1476
01:24:06,399 --> 01:24:07,760
there you go. I'm just gonna split off and do

1477
01:24:07,800 --> 01:24:10,560
my own pot now. I'm kidding. Maybe I'll do more

1478
01:24:10,600 --> 01:24:13,079
solo episodes because it was actually a good time. I

1479
01:24:13,119 --> 01:24:15,319
kind of got into the flow and uh, definitely went

1480
01:24:15,359 --> 01:24:18,279
off the rails, definitely went on tangents, definitely probably made

1481
01:24:18,279 --> 01:24:20,279
a fool of myself. A real listen to this episode,

1482
01:24:20,319 --> 01:24:24,079
I'd probably be cringing the entire time, but nonetheless, we

1483
01:24:24,199 --> 01:24:30,560
made it through. I'm trying to think if there's any

1484
01:24:30,640 --> 01:24:32,560
last things I want to mention on this film that

1485
01:24:32,680 --> 01:24:34,479
I didn't because this will be my only real time

1486
01:24:34,520 --> 01:24:36,479
to talk about I mean, after nine's coming up. I'm

1487
01:24:36,479 --> 01:24:40,600
sure it'll be brought up there. I guess I should

1488
01:24:40,640 --> 01:24:44,720
have said this earlier. Would I recommend this film. I

1489
01:24:44,760 --> 01:24:49,560
would recommend this film too. Definitely fans of film, any

1490
01:24:49,600 --> 01:24:52,720
fan of film, just like fans of how a film

1491
01:24:52,760 --> 01:24:54,840
is crafted and everything that goes into it. I highly

1492
01:24:54,880 --> 01:24:58,880
recommend this. I recommend this if you are interested in yeah,

1493
01:24:58,920 --> 01:25:02,840
like history movies. If you know or don't know the

1494
01:25:02,880 --> 01:25:07,760
events of the Munich terrorist attack, definitely would recommend it,

1495
01:25:08,239 --> 01:25:10,840
And definitely would recommend it if you're like me and

1496
01:25:11,119 --> 01:25:14,880
you definitely aren't super familiar, because I think it actually

1497
01:25:14,920 --> 01:25:18,279
helps a lot more because and again, if you're listening

1498
01:25:18,279 --> 01:25:20,079
to this right now and you're taking my advice, you

1499
01:25:20,119 --> 01:25:21,640
want to go see it. I kind of spoiled it already,

1500
01:25:21,640 --> 01:25:25,199
but just the way that things unfold it hit a

1501
01:25:25,239 --> 01:25:27,159
lot harder because I didn't know what was going to

1502
01:25:27,199 --> 01:25:32,399
be coming. And yeah, so there you have it, ladies,

1503
01:25:32,520 --> 01:25:37,840
Oh number ready, there we go. H I think're gonna

1504
01:25:37,840 --> 01:25:39,760
give us a nine out of ten. I don't exactly

1505
01:25:39,840 --> 01:25:42,960
know why I'm deducting points, because I enjoyed it thoroughly.

1506
01:25:43,079 --> 01:25:47,520
I just think maybe there's a lack of clarity in

1507
01:25:47,600 --> 01:25:53,680
certain situations as to what is fully going on, like

1508
01:25:54,159 --> 01:25:57,319
for some context as to what that means is like

1509
01:25:57,520 --> 01:26:00,279
there's certaindividuals that they talk to that they're just getting

1510
01:26:00,319 --> 01:26:02,439
information from, and they don't really explain who they are,

1511
01:26:02,479 --> 01:26:04,359
like they say their name, but and maybe they're like

1512
01:26:04,359 --> 01:26:06,560
a historical figure that if you know everything that's going on,

1513
01:26:06,920 --> 01:26:08,840
you kind of know what's what is going on. But

1514
01:26:08,840 --> 01:26:10,439
for me, I was a little bit confused at some point.

1515
01:26:10,479 --> 01:26:12,720
So they're just kind of bouncing all over and it

1516
01:26:12,760 --> 01:26:18,319
was a little bit confused in that sense. And uh yeah,

1517
01:26:18,359 --> 01:26:22,600
but man, what a time. Really enjoy this film. Hope

1518
01:26:22,600 --> 01:26:26,840
it does well at the Oscars whatever that means. But

1519
01:26:27,199 --> 01:26:29,880
uh yeah, I had a good time. It was a

1520
01:26:29,920 --> 01:26:33,000
good movie mystery Monday. Maybe this should just be a segment.

1521
01:26:33,039 --> 01:26:35,399
Maybe I should just go see movie mysteries and then

1522
01:26:35,520 --> 01:26:38,840
just just review them, just do solo reviews, you know.

1523
01:26:38,920 --> 01:26:41,479
If you want that, let me know, go join our

1524
01:26:41,479 --> 01:26:45,880
patron Maybe maybe that'll be some incentive. But anyways, let's

1525
01:26:45,880 --> 01:26:48,680
get out of here, ladies and gentlemen. Tune in next

1526
01:26:48,720 --> 01:26:51,199
time for whatever the hell it is talking about, hopefully

1527
01:26:51,319 --> 01:26:52,920
with someone else. Maybe I'm not maybe it's just gonna

1528
01:26:52,920 --> 01:26:56,640
be me, a show me show going forward. But uh, anyways,

1529
01:26:57,159 --> 01:26:59,079
I love you. Have a good one, one and only

1530
01:26:59,159 --> 01:27:03,199
Kripton Batser, good Bye,
