Speaker 1: Okay, cool.
Speaker 2: Uh, well, let's jump to our next outbreak and mosey
on forward and we are back from mosying.
Speaker 1: So what do we got next on this list? Here?
Speaker 2: I got a couple of really uh, there are kind
of random miscellaneous topics, but we'll start with the heavy
hit here. Robert Egger said to direct Werewolf as his
next film, described as a werewolf horror movie set in
the thirteenth century England with dialogue true to the time period,
in theaters December twenty fifth, twenty six.
Speaker 1: This man loves his goddamn Christmas dates.
Speaker 3: I mean it worked well for him last time. Also,
when you said let's get into our biggest topic first
and the first thing on our list was Shrek five
being delayed.
Speaker 1: Is that?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 3: This is this is great. I mean, you know, I've
not loved all his prior movies, but nos Froudy is
fantastic and this seemed like a very similar sort of thing,
So hell yeah, I think it's fantastic. I'm still not
going to see it on Christmas Day, but I'll watch
it a few days after when I'm not spending time
with the family. So I think this is Uh, it
was great. I love what he's doing. I think he's
just existing in his little realm right now, making these cool, weird,
interesting movies. So yeah, excited.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm excited too.
Speaker 2: It seems like he was brought on today. I saw
to do the Labyrinth movie, which is cool. Uh.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know much about Labyrinth.
Speaker 1: I don't know much about it either, not too too much.
But he's he's keeping busy. He's keeping busy, so that's
great work.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's I think it's awesome to do
the counterpart to Nosfrat to give us that you that
werewolf kind of thing and with English dialogue true to
the time period. That just sounds fantastic. H We'll see,
because I know the discord was popping off. Everyone was
talking about how the Brutalist utilizes some AI to assist
with the voice.
Speaker 3: Cheavy topic in our discord, very heavy talk to get
in on that convo.
Speaker 1: Try the discord, that's right.
Speaker 2: So I'm sure that there are people that exist out
they're great actors that can really land a dialogue true
to the time period.
Speaker 1: Hopefully they don't have to use AI to.
Speaker 2: Help people get that thick English thirteenth century dialect.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't. I don't see Eggers as like a
big AI, but I don't know anything about him, so
I could be wrong about that.
Speaker 2: I mean, for a man that really enjoys these old
school time pieces, yeah, I think he just loaves Ai.
Speaker 1: Just he would prefer to.
Speaker 3: Live in a world that didn't have any computers in them.
Speaker 1: That's right, Yeah, computer less. Next we have I'll just
throw it out there. Shrek five five but delayed twenty six.
Speaker 2: Sorry, this has been on my notes for a while
because I was compiling news notes for a couple of
weeks and it was like I had this on there.
Speaker 1: I was like, man, I got it. We got to
talk about this competition now, competent. I just realized those dates,
what are.
Speaker 3: You gonna see? You can only pick one.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna guy.
Speaker 2: I'm a big Shrek guy, but I'm gonna see were
a Wolf, because you know, Shrek is great.
Speaker 1: I love Shrek.
Speaker 2: Shrek two is my favorite Shrek of all of them,
but that Shrek five is nowhere near gonna be as
great as the Like the first two, I would say, okay,
just basically just for humor, I feel like those movies
like we're in a different age. Now, and I feel
I feel like, you know, when you're doing that kind
of humor that was in that first and second Shrek movie,
that was like it was so subtly done in a
great way, and I don't think that they could do
that and get away with it.
Speaker 1: I'm not saying it's like south Park level or like
like really really bad and politically incorrect, but they just they.
Speaker 2: They just slide in that right kind of humor for
the adults as much as the kids can enjoy that movie,
and I don't feel like they can necessarily tackle that
in another Shrek movie.
Speaker 1: Maybe I'm overthinking it. It's just how I interpret it.
Speaker 2: Though hopefully it's good. Hopefully I'm assuming you're seeing Warwolf.
You're not going to be running to the Shrek.
Speaker 1: No.
Speaker 3: I have not seen Shrek three or four. Okay, I
assume they exist because this is a one, and there's
spin offs and things. I saw the of course, uh
last I was called it Last Dance. What is except
the Last Dance?
Speaker 1: Last Wish? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I saw the Last Wish. Another thing called the
Last Dance, but uh yeah, I I like I like Trek,
but I it's not one that I continued to watch
as I aged I left it in my childhood. As
sad as that might sound.
Speaker 1: No, it's uh, this is what it is. I think
a lot of people have done just left the swamp.
Left the swamp cool.
Speaker 2: Uh. So on the Dexter front, like I said at
the beginning of this cast, we've got doing Dexter Original
Sin reviews weekly and Dexter Resurrection has been a hot
topic because that is basically coming around soon and we've
got I can't remember if we announced the returning cast members.
Speaker 1: Yes, we did.
Speaker 2: We talked about that on the news with Batista and
the original Harry Morgan and all those characters coming back.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So here we have a new announcement.
Speaker 2: Uma Thurman is officially joining the cast of Dexter Resurrection,
playing a character called Charlie.
Speaker 1: What do you What do you think about that? Does
that get you more excited? Are you a big Uma
Thurman fan? I don't know.
Speaker 3: I mean, I I love her and all the Tarantino stuff.
I don't think I've ever seen her in anything else.
Speaker 1: Can you think of? What are the mother like?
Speaker 3: Big Uma rolls?
Speaker 2: I mean you got killed Bill Volumes one and two.
But other than other than Tarantino. You got Batman Forever.
I think it's Batman forever with him and Robbin got
your Freeze.
Speaker 1: There is another one. I gotta check her.
Speaker 3: So, like I want to say I'm a big fan
of her, but like I'm also just a huge Tarantino fan,
and so it's like, yeah, I am a fan by
association in a way. I don't know, but I think
that's I think it's cool. I mean I all that
to say that I am excited to see her in
this because I do want to see what she's been
up to, and I want to see some other acting
chops from her with like a non Tarantino style and
see what that's like as well. Do I think she's
a good fit for Dexter?
Speaker 1: Sure?
Speaker 2: Why not.
Speaker 3: She's as good as anyone. So I'm into it.
Speaker 1: I'm into it. Cool. Cool. Uh she's in.
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, Percy Jackson the Olympians. If you ever
seen that one?
Speaker 1: What else?
Speaker 2: Do you come on?
Speaker 3: You gotta do better than that.
Speaker 1: She's in another Tarantino, so I can't use that. She
was in Savages. Did not see that one? Ah? The
War with Grandpa? Do you see that one? Big? Twenty
twenty one with.
Speaker 2: The War with Grandpa. Is this like war movie is
like a comedy? I can't it's it's it's a family comedy.
Speaker 3: Okay, No, I have not seen War with Grandpa.
Speaker 1: That's with Robert de Naro.
Speaker 3: Do you think she's gonna be the character Charlie that
she's playing. Do you think this is gonna be any
association to anyone that we know previously, or this is
a blank slate, just new character, because like maybe she's
like Hannah's mom or something like that.
Speaker 1: You know, Yeah, you make a good point with that, Like.
Speaker 2: I don't know how she's gonna be introduced her in
what way she'll be connected to these characters Hannah's mom.
Speaker 1: That's not a bad idea.
Speaker 2: We know Harrison doesn't have anyone after Hannah passed away,
but I don't know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe he finds out I mean Dexter. Dexter is back. Yeah,
so anyone with.
Speaker 2: I don't know, Like I was joking about it being
like a love interest or something like that. But it
depends where we go, if we are going back to Miami,
what the story is and how what what kind of
a character this person will be. Maybe she'll be just
an FBI agent were Batista like, Hey, we're getting close
to finding where he is.
Speaker 1: We're gonna track him down and go after him.
Speaker 2: Or maybe she does offer up some help to Harrison,
and maybe she's I hope that they're not just gonna
make her a serial killer. And I think Travis Travis
said that since I'm echoing it just him being or
her being a serial killer, and then Dexter just spending
the season like trying to like take her down or
something like that.
Speaker 1: Right, do something more with that character, Yeah, hopefully.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And then last but not least for it to
the trailers. No One's the Odyssey adaptation has added John
Berenthal to the ensemble.
Speaker 1: Yes, how do you feel about it? Oh? I love it.
Speaker 3: I mean this cast is already insane. I'm a huge
Burnhal fan, and yeah, I'm just trying to, like, I
feel like, in terms of big movie roles, like this
is not that he's like a star or anything, but whatever,
I think he's a perfect fit for that setting. Like
whatever he ends up being, I think it'll be a
great fit. And I just want to see him in
like a Nolan movie that just seems like a really
fun combination for me, and yeah, I feel like Bernhal
I do associate as more as like a TV guy
for me, not that he hasn't been in a ton
of movies and movies that I've seen and loved, of course,
but yeah, I definitely love to see that man on
the big screen. So yeah, can't wait. I think that's
a great addition to this already insane cast.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's he's a fantastic actor, and I've really really
enjoyed seeing him in the Daredevil show.
Speaker 1: But for me, notably just.
Speaker 2: As a character or as an actor, I guess I've
always just seen him in Walking Dead. It's just the
right that's just the kind of character I've seen him as,
and so when I got to him in Daredevil, it
was kind of difficult for me to kind of see
him in this role. But I broke off of that
and we were talking about how you see like a
certain face in this franchise and you still see this
other version of them. I don't have that with him anymore.
Speaker 1: He's just such a great actor and he does play
that rugged, kind of tough, rough kind of guy. And
I think this.
Speaker 2: Definitely a role or not I shouldn't say a role,
because we don't know what his role is, but a
movie that he could really really excel at. And I
mean it's already got a huge roster with Matt Damon,
Tom Holland and Hathaways and Dea Lupita Nuwongo or Pattison,
Charlie's there on. I mean, that's just a stack cast.
I was talking to my coworker today too, actually about
how a lot of movies don't have a lot of
castings like that. Usually get two maybe three big names
and that's it. But here we go, we have just
so many and maybe they'll keep adding more. I mean,
this is only what it is so far, so we'll
see what happens.
Speaker 1: Nolan. Everyone wants to ee wants to work with Nolan. Yeah,
that's right. Anything else you want to add to that? No,
I think that's all okay.
Speaker 2: Cool. Well I had two other things, but those can
be pushed for another day.
Speaker 1: We can get into some trailers here now, Maddie.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna apologize because you wanted to know how we
rank these trailers in order of anticipation.
Speaker 1: And I know Mickey seventeen was did drop a new trailer,
but we're not talking about that because we don't want
to be spoiled.
Speaker 3: So yeah, you can blame me for that. I yeah,
I don't want to see anymore. Well, I want to
go see the movie in theaters, but I don't want
to see I don't want Yeah, I feel like that
is a movie that I've already seen a lot. I
feel like there's another trailer. I don't need this at all,
so decided to skip it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, which is fair. It's fair. So which trailer do
you want to start with?
Speaker 3: Let's start with opus opus, opus opus, Yeah, magnum opus,
I guess.
Speaker 1: So.
Speaker 3: Yeah, this movie, I think it looks pretty well. We
got Ao in there again, so fun to see her
pop up again. But yeah, I think I think this
one to me, I don't know if I'm getting my
ranking out there too early, but I think this one
looked pretty good. I like the concept that we got
going on here. It feels a bit like, my god,
what the heck was that movie called Blink twice? I
feel like it's given me a bit of that energy
to it in terms of some weird cult situation, pulling
people in a lot of confusion. Stuff going on here,
a little bit of comedy, but like also serious thriller
vibes and all that A twenty four of course, So
I think it looks really really good, really interesting, good
style and all that. So that's probably the one I'm
most hyped about off this drop here.
Speaker 1: M hmm. Yeah, I.
Speaker 2: Like the trailer a lot, and yeah, with Aoback in there,
that was a pleasant surprise, I really have. It gave
me midsomr vibes to a slight degree. But something else
is clearly going on in here, and yeah, I just
felt weird. Just you gotta puppet that's puffing out smoke
and just a bunch of other weird things.
Speaker 1: Malcovich.
Speaker 2: I feel like he's definitely a good pick for these
kind of weird, weird, wacky roles. You can just definitely
play a really weird kind of crazy character kooky.
Speaker 3: So and I'm really excited for Murray Bartlett in here,
who a lot of people know from the Last of Us.
I forget Bill Ted he played on one of the
two uh, and then he was in White Lotus of course,
where I love him in He's on my draft as
well for the comp draft, so hopefully get him in
there somebody. But I'm excited to see him something else
seem in a movie that's very exciting for me.
Speaker 1: So that's also, uh super.
Speaker 3: I really like the cast of Amber mid Thunders in
there too, so really interesting.
Speaker 1: Well that's right.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I haven't seen her in anything since Pray. I
don't know she's done anything else since Prey.
Speaker 3: Oh I'm sure she has. Let's take a quick gander.
Speaker 2: The only other movie is a movie of hers that
I've watched. Was I think Ice Roaded And I want
to say that was Nicholas Caate. Wasn't Nicholas Cage. It
was like they're driving, No, it wasn't Nicholas Cage. They're
driving the truck of the Ice Nissan. That's right, Liam
Neison Ember mid Thunder.
Speaker 3: Yeah, she's been in a few things. She was an
Avatar Last Airbender. Did you watch that? Didn't you watch
that show?
Speaker 1: The Reason One? We did? Oh, that's right, she was
in there. That's right.
Speaker 3: She's in dream scenario. I don't remember her being in
dream scenario, but there's a cage thing if you're you're
pulling to that.
Speaker 2: Totally forgot she was in uh Moral Story. She's she's
been acting, she's been working acting.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's been keeping busy. Yeah. Cool. Uh, what have
we got next on the trailer list? Here? We got drop?
How do you feel about this one?
Speaker 3: Yeah? So I guess everyone hasn't seen this this trailer.
The concept is that girl goes on date with a
guy at home or her her kids babysitters taking care
of the kids, so she can go on this date
with the guy. She's getting drops on her phone, like
these weird text messages that start out just a little creepy,
but then they get very sinister of like my family
your or your your family is gonna get killed, all this,
all these crazy threats, and then eventually the hook is
that they're doing this as like a blackmail thing so
that she kills her date. They want her to kill
the date and then she'll leave, they'll leave her family alone.
I probably butchered that, but anyway, Landa, that's more or
less the concept of it, which seems interesting. I think
that in terms of like the visuals of it and
just how it came across, it just seemed I don't know,
maybe not top tier, top top quality, but I think
there's an interesting hook to be had there, and it
seems like a lot of the movie will be kind
of taking place in this one restaurant, like at least
from her perspective, and then like the family back of
the house. And I always like a movie that can
do a lot with a little in terms of the
setting of that, so I think that's kind of interesting.
The main actress, once again White Lotus is gonna come
up a lot, because even the next trailer has another
person from White Lotus that I really love. So I
love seeing these actors who I grew to love from
White Lotus and other stuff. So she's great, but I'm
excited to see her more leading rolling. They'll be cool,
I should say. I don't know if I should say
I'm excited to see her in this, because I don't
know if I am gonna watch this movie, but if
someday I am too, I don't know. I guess there's
a couple of carrots on the stick there, but I
don't know. What do you think of this one?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not overly excited for this.
Speaker 2: And it's funny because when we're watching wolf Man, we
saw this trailer pop up on the big screen, but
it just it gave me vibes that we've seen this
kind of thing before.
Speaker 1: It wasn't really blowing out of the water for me.
It's unfortunate.
Speaker 2: I love it if the movie was a little bit
bigger scale, if that kind of makes sense. But I
feel like you said it, the movie, for the most part,
is going to be taking place in this restaurant, and
it won't be to the very very end where she's
running out of the restaurant and she runs into her
house and like shoots the killer or something like that.
There'll be something pretty anti climactic, which is a shame.
And I'm gonna give it the benefit of doubt though,
and I'm gonna watch it because I feel like, Okay,
there was a little bit of mystery still behind this trailer.
We didn't get to see everything. I'm curious why this
guy's being targeted and why they need him.
Speaker 1: To be like killed. It just kind of gave me
also vibes of that movie Carry On.
Speaker 2: Where Okay, this guy is in this position that has
to do something, and so they're targeting the guy's family
to make them go through with it, and a weird
sort of blackmail kind of method.
Speaker 3: It just feels a bit like I feel like maybe
there was like a drunken night out with a bunch
of like Hollywood writers. They were hanging out of a
good time and one of them got like a drop
on his phone and he's like, oh, what if that
was What if that was a horror movie? Like what
if you know, maybe they troll in each other or
something and like spin it out into a movie. So
it just feels like a bit of a bit of
a stretch. And as you said, and I feel like
that core concept maybe it is interesting and novel, but
then like to fill in the blanks, they just filled
it in with like really generic things that we've seen
like one hundred times.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so yeah, yeah, I agree. Yeah, Last, but not least,
Hell Summer.
Speaker 3: I believe it's actually called hell Hell of a Summer?
Speaker 1: Right, is it really? Oh my god?
Speaker 3: At least when I googled it, I could not find
we called hell Summer, And I watched one for a
movie called Hell of a Summer, Hell of Summer. I
think I know who to blame for, Oh for that,
someone who's potentially retired or someone else.
Speaker 2: Uh, let me see what they put m Yes, someone
who uh is potentially retired?
Speaker 3: Okay, so that's what you geat. He's phoning in his
work in his last few days to run up the contract.
That's right, So hell of summer.
Speaker 1: So this movie.
Speaker 3: I didn't actually look this up yet, but it said
this was a movie from Thinn Wolfhart, who we all
know from Stranger Things and uh it, and yeah, he
is a writer director along with Billy Brick, who I'm
not familiar with. But is it been in things like
Saturday Night Ghostbusters are for Like, Okay, so I guess
I have seen him act before. Interesting, so there's a
little Ghostbusters connection there. Or wait, After Life was not
the newest one newest one frozen, so I have not Okay,
I've not seen Afterlife, so anyway, I roll the tape
back on that one. So interesting. I feel like Filn
Wolfhart still seems like he's like, you know, seventeen years
old to me, I don't know how old he is.
Maybe he's like early twenties now, but like for someone
who is that young, he has been in so many
things and like huge caliber things, TV shows, movies, all
this kind of stuff, and so it's it's pretty cool
to see that from him, that he's already in the
director's chair working on something here. And this is like
a very classic like summer camp campy horror slasher situation.
And once again, I think it does look pretty bad
the books, but I feel like it does at least
it knows what it's trying to be. Like, it is
going for that campy vibe to it very clearly, even
like one of the text things in there, like a
press review thing, was like talking about that angle of
the movie.
Speaker 1: And then yeah, once.
Speaker 3: Again you have the Fred fred something or rather I
forgot his last name, who was in Gladiator. He was
also in White Lotus. I really like that actor and
he kind of plays like it seems like a pretty fun,
quirky role in here. So yeah, I think this looks
like a decent time. It looks like it'll be fun.
I don't think it'll blow your socks off or anything
like that, but I think it'll be kind of what
you expect, and sometimes it's all you want from like
a slasher.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 3: I don't think any of us I was looking for
highbrow art ode of a slasher. We're just looking for
something cheap and fun to eat some popcorn and watch,
you know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's exactly it.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 2: The kid has definitely he's hit some major successes and
now he's working on his own project. I think that's fantastic.
That's awesome, and you having fun with it. I'm excited
to see this. I got a bit of a sweet
spot for the retro camp counselor horror story kind of narrative, and.
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be a lot of fun. A
little bit zany.
Speaker 2: They maybe showed a little too much the trailer. It
was maybe a little too long. They could have pumped
the brakes a bit. So if there is another trailer,
I'm definitely not gonna watch it. I'm just gonna let
it be and say that, Okay, this is all I've
seen so far, and that's okay because I don't want
it to be ruined when I get around to actually
watching it.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I think it'll be fun. It'll be a fun,
fun time.
Speaker 3: Very true.
Speaker 1: And how would you rank these?
Speaker 3: I'd go Opus top Dog, followed by Hell of the
Summer number two. Drop It's dropped to the bottom of
the list, number three, pretty simple ranking, Mike you seventeen.
I'm gonna say that it would be my top trailer
if I had watched it.
Speaker 1: I like it. I'm gonna go I'd probably go Opus
number one, and I'd say, hell, summer number two. Hell,
what was it again?
Speaker 2: Hell of a summer, Hell of a summer number two.
And then are op at number three and yeah, it
was seventeen in there if I somewhere in there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So there you have it.
