I'm excited for this one because it's one of 52 00:03:00.159 --> 00:03:05.240 my favorite Christmas movies and it is a Christmas movie, 53 00:03:05.840 --> 00:03:10.599 not Halloween. Okay, the whole fucking first beginning of this 54 00:03:10.639 --> 00:03:17.080 shit is Christmas music and Christmas trees, and it's definitely 55 00:03:17.159 --> 00:03:19.719 a Christmas movie. I know some people are like, oh, 56 00:03:19.759 --> 00:03:22.240 that's not a Christmas movie like Diehard. Did they put 57 00:03:22.240 --> 00:03:24.639 it in like the die Hard category? Yes, but it 58 00:03:24.879 --> 00:03:28.439 definitely is a Christmas movie. But I'm excited about tonight. 59 00:03:28.520 --> 00:03:29.680 Thanks for having. 60 00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:34.479 Me, of course, thank you. Uh yeah, I would always 61 00:03:34.639 --> 00:03:36.599 I would say I remember that even growing up that 62 00:03:36.719 --> 00:03:40.400 was like synonymous with Christmas. Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure, 63 00:03:40.599 --> 00:03:42.759 I remember, like it was even like there's parts I 64 00:03:42.800 --> 00:03:45.039 remember all the snow in the fake town and everything. 65 00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:50.639 Yeah, and what's her nuts? Phoebe Cats her dad died 66 00:03:50.759 --> 00:03:54.800 playing Santa Claus, remember, and she tells like this horrific 67 00:03:54.840 --> 00:03:57.319 story about him getting stuck in the chimney and his 68 00:03:57.400 --> 00:03:59.879 fucking corpse got stuck in there and was just like 69 00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:00.360 they were. 70 00:04:00.240 --> 00:04:02.759 Like, what's that smell? Did somebody leave eggs out? 71 00:04:02.879 --> 00:04:05.639 Now, it's just that I tried to go down for chimney. 72 00:04:06.240 --> 00:04:08.520 Yeah, he tried to go down the chimney like Santa, 73 00:04:08.560 --> 00:04:11.599 and he got stuck in there and that and literally 74 00:04:11.639 --> 00:04:14.080 the only reason that they figured that out is because 75 00:04:14.120 --> 00:04:17.439 this corpse started stinking in the chimney and they were like, Oh, 76 00:04:17.519 --> 00:04:20.680 somebody better go look at that. Uh yeah, oh it's 77 00:04:20.800 --> 00:04:23.600 Dad Hello, dead in the chimney. 78 00:04:24.639 --> 00:04:27.839 No town set up just like that. It was the 79 00:04:27.920 --> 00:04:29.800 identical one for Back to the Future. 80 00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:30.560 Was that right? 81 00:04:31.240 --> 00:04:33.639 It does look like that, Yeah, it does. 82 00:04:33.720 --> 00:04:38.439 It's almost identical to the downtown in Back to the Future. 83 00:04:40.519 --> 00:04:42.120 And I never thought about that. 84 00:04:44.160 --> 00:04:44.759 Well, there are. 85 00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:50.120 Plenty of conspiracies with Back to the Future, but this 86 00:04:50.199 --> 00:04:54.279 one in particular I thought was interesting because there are 87 00:04:54.519 --> 00:04:58.160 There's a there's one character he is kind of like 88 00:04:58.199 --> 00:05:03.160 the town crazy guy, and he's always talking about how 89 00:05:03.319 --> 00:05:08.639 there's they're listening to us, and there's Grimlins quote unquote 90 00:05:08.839 --> 00:05:11.199 in all of like the technology. 91 00:05:10.879 --> 00:05:13.399 Do you remember that, Nick, Yeah, I remember, I think 92 00:05:13.399 --> 00:05:17.519 I remember that guy. Yeah, he drives like a tractor. 93 00:05:17.720 --> 00:05:20.399 Ye, some ship, I remember that. 94 00:05:20.480 --> 00:05:21.120 Yeah. 95 00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:25.959 Yeah, he's a conspiracy theory guy and they're always like 96 00:05:26.040 --> 00:05:28.959 making fun of him and saying like, oh, it's Roger 97 00:05:29.160 --> 00:05:33.079 whatever the fuck his name is. But he literally he 98 00:05:33.160 --> 00:05:36.040 talks about how they're always listening to us, and they 99 00:05:36.079 --> 00:05:40.160 put like bugs in our houses and our TVs and 100 00:05:40.199 --> 00:05:44.879 our phones, and the reason he drives the tractors because 101 00:05:44.920 --> 00:05:51.120 he can't trust like foreign made vehicles. And literally he's 102 00:05:51.199 --> 00:05:55.639 the conspiracy theory guy in the movie. And uh, spoiler 103 00:05:55.680 --> 00:05:58.240 alert in case you haven't watched The Grimlins before, which 104 00:05:58.319 --> 00:06:00.360 if you haven't fucked you like. 105 00:06:00.480 --> 00:06:02.279 Who hasn't watched The Krimlins. 106 00:06:02.600 --> 00:06:08.199 But he dies and you know, but I just thought, 107 00:06:08.279 --> 00:06:10.399 you know, we could talk a little bit about it 108 00:06:10.560 --> 00:06:13.160 if you want, Nick, we could go around and just 109 00:06:13.199 --> 00:06:16.600 say when we first watched it or whatever. I was 110 00:06:16.879 --> 00:06:19.439 a little kid and it was nostalgic for me. 111 00:06:21.360 --> 00:06:24.120 Oh yeah, trying to think what did it actually come out? 112 00:06:24.480 --> 00:06:26.519 You remember, let me pull it. 113 00:06:26.519 --> 00:06:31.600 Up really quick, eighty eight or something like that. 114 00:06:31.920 --> 00:06:34.199 Yeah.

And where as a kid, just seeing 142 00:07:58.759 --> 00:08:02.319 those little dudes, you know, freaked me out. But they're furry. 143 00:08:02.360 --> 00:08:04.519 You're like, oh man, those are cute. I want one, 144 00:08:04.959 --> 00:08:11.079 And then they get wet man remember all the little warts. 145 00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:13.319 That's there's two things that stood out to me in 146 00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:17.319 that movie was I can't remember if it was his 147 00:08:17.639 --> 00:08:19.480 Grimlin or if it was another one, but one of 148 00:08:19.519 --> 00:08:21.800 them got wet and just all these little boils and 149 00:08:21.839 --> 00:08:24.560 bubbles started popping up all over their back like eggs, 150 00:08:25.000 --> 00:08:27.319 and all these eggs just kept bursting like pimples and 151 00:08:27.560 --> 00:08:31.000 goo going everywhere, and uh that. And then I talked 152 00:08:31.000 --> 00:08:33.200 about pre roll the I don't remember if that was 153 00:08:33.240 --> 00:08:35.559 the first one or second one, but where they're in 154 00:08:35.600 --> 00:08:37.960 that big corporate building and they go all the way 155 00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:41.559 to the top level and there's the the female Grimlin 156 00:08:41.639 --> 00:08:44.360 with the boost the air and push up broad lipstick 157 00:08:44.559 --> 00:08:47.399 and peats. Brought to my attention said, no, that was 158 00:08:47.840 --> 00:08:48.840 a male Grimlin. 159 00:08:48.919 --> 00:08:50.000 It was just a trip. 160 00:08:50.039 --> 00:08:51.759 Would you call it a trembling. 161 00:08:52.440 --> 00:08:53.639 A trans Grimlin? 162 00:08:53.840 --> 00:09:03.799 Yeah, yeah, or as we call him in reality, gremlins. 163 00:09:05.120 --> 00:09:05.799 What about you. 164 00:09:05.679 --> 00:09:08.799 Had, Liz, when's the first time you saw it? 165 00:09:09.600 --> 00:09:13.240 Oh? I saw it. It had to be back in 166 00:09:13.240 --> 00:09:15.159 the eighties. It always sort of stuck out to me 167 00:09:15.200 --> 00:09:17.320 as kind of like one of these big marketing movies. 168 00:09:17.320 --> 00:09:20.080 So they had all these spin offs, all this really 169 00:09:20.120 --> 00:09:22.559 interesting march about it and stuff like that, and it 170 00:09:22.919 --> 00:09:25.879 had a really iconic feel with the whole water after 171 00:09:25.919 --> 00:09:29.120 midnight or feeding them after midnight thing, and you know, 172 00:09:29.159 --> 00:09:31.600 that sort of stuck around in the popular consciousness for 173 00:09:31.679 --> 00:09:35.320 a long time. It was also produced by Steven Spielberg, 174 00:09:35.480 --> 00:09:36.440 so he was kind of. 175 00:09:36.360 --> 00:09:40.399 In the that's what I'm saying. It's a Spielberg and 176 00:09:40.600 --> 00:09:45.159 he like put little like weird things in there. The 177 00:09:45.240 --> 00:09:48.960 guy who did the soundtrack, his name is Joe Dante. 178 00:09:49.440 --> 00:09:53.879 He also did the soundtrack for The Burbs, and there's 179 00:09:54.000 --> 00:09:57.000 a lot of weird stuff in the Burbs. I don't 180 00:09:57.039 --> 00:10:00.639 know if you guys have seen it recently with Tom Hanks, 181 00:10:02.039 --> 00:10:06.279 but yeah, he's he's a weird guy. Spielberg is obviously 182 00:10:06.320 --> 00:10:10.080 a weird guy. But my thing is, like it's on 183 00:10:10.159 --> 00:10:12.240 Hulu right now.

That's sort of the 367 00:21:12.440 --> 00:21:15.640 same idea here, he's got it with them, so he's 368 00:21:15.759 --> 00:21:18.799 keeping it fat and then it's giving the family line 369 00:21:18.839 --> 00:21:22.039 good luck because they're like immortal beings and just as 370 00:21:22.039 --> 00:21:24.720 long as he goes by the rules, they keep getting 371 00:21:24.759 --> 00:21:25.799 good luck from it. 372 00:21:26.000 --> 00:21:27.440 So right, that kind of. 373 00:21:29.920 --> 00:21:32.759 That was like an ancestral spirit. 374 00:21:34.559 --> 00:21:36.480 Yeah, if it's immortal and he's got to keep it 375 00:21:36.519 --> 00:21:36.920 with them. 376 00:21:38.079 --> 00:21:40.440 But with the water, you know, you see a little 377 00:21:40.480 --> 00:21:44.519 bit of alchemy there, like you go through this alchemical transformation. Also, 378 00:21:45.079 --> 00:21:47.960 you know there's an elemental aspect to it as as well. 379 00:21:48.000 --> 00:21:50.000 That's why I had brought up you know, are these 380 00:21:50.039 --> 00:21:55.359 some kind of like elemental spirit that had manifested or 381 00:21:56.480 --> 00:21:57.880 you know, conjured into something. 382 00:21:59.400 --> 00:22:03.640 It was all about the four elements, so reversed alchemy too. 383 00:22:05.160 --> 00:22:07.720 You know, in alchemy you get you take something black 384 00:22:08.119 --> 00:22:10.799 and put it through the process and whiten it and 385 00:22:10.839 --> 00:22:14.880 purify it. But here you had something white and purified 386 00:22:15.200 --> 00:22:16.759 that you had turned black. 387 00:22:17.880 --> 00:22:18.079 Right. 388 00:22:18.720 --> 00:22:23.599 Yeah, All the little mugwise that like popped off of 389 00:22:23.680 --> 00:22:27.440 Gizmo were evil from jump Street. They were like messing 390 00:22:27.519 --> 00:22:29.920 with the clocks in the house so they could get 391 00:22:29.960 --> 00:22:33.119 fed after midnight. They had like a whole agenda so 392 00:22:33.200 --> 00:22:38.680 they could transform, and they were all evil the ones 393 00:22:38.680 --> 00:22:39.799 that And. 394 00:22:41.359 --> 00:22:44.599 Maybe maybe I. 395 00:22:44.680 --> 00:22:47.359 Took it as this is what they were implying. But 396 00:22:47.720 --> 00:22:51.039 he takes one to school with him in a box 397 00:22:51.519 --> 00:22:53.480 and gives it to his teacher.
