I have one sent 20 00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:22.599 me explaining why it's the greatest of all time, and 21 00:01:22.680 --> 00:01:25.680 I have another one where I watch every Denzel movie 22 00:01:26.400 --> 00:01:29.079 and then I rank them, which was fifty five at 23 00:01:29.079 --> 00:01:32.000 the time, but now there's highest to lowest, so it's outdated, 24 00:01:32.079 --> 00:01:36.480 so there's fifty six now. And also in doing this, 25 00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:41.719 I have changed that ranking quite a lot, so that 26 00:01:41.799 --> 00:01:45.040 video is nothing anymore. But still watch it anyway. It's 27 00:01:45.079 --> 00:01:45.959 like an hour and a half. 28 00:01:46.799 --> 00:01:50.439 So now there will be another Denzel video next week 29 00:01:50.480 --> 00:01:52.359 with this an hour and a half maybe of course. 30 00:01:53.159 --> 00:01:56.400 Yeah, to be honest, I should do one weekly just updating. 31 00:01:57.159 --> 00:02:01.799 We Yeah, so we're gonna be covering our top ten 32 00:02:01.959 --> 00:02:05.439 favorite Denzel movies at the end of this, and it's 33 00:02:05.480 --> 00:02:07.480 gonna be long.

Everybody does it. It was not special. Oh man. 59 00:03:27.599 --> 00:03:30.039 One thing I wanted to highlight, which everybody obviously I'm 60 00:03:30.080 --> 00:03:31.879 going to say this every time. Create all of his 61 00:03:31.919 --> 00:03:34.520 links from the description below, please go subscribe to his channel. 62 00:03:34.520 --> 00:03:37.639 He's great at what he does. One thing that we 63 00:03:37.719 --> 00:03:40.680 talked about in the sub or not the sub in 64 00:03:40.719 --> 00:03:43.960 the discord quite a bit is that you put up 65 00:03:45.039 --> 00:03:48.680 a video this year that if I'm remembering, right, it's 66 00:03:48.680 --> 00:03:50.000 like four and a half hours. 67 00:03:50.360 --> 00:03:55.960 Oh yeah, yeah, if you to be fair, if you 68 00:03:56.000 --> 00:04:01.159 actually look, it's I think it's the last video uploaded. 69 00:04:01.639 --> 00:04:03.800 Yeah, and it was like a month ago or something, 70 00:04:03.840 --> 00:04:06.840 because like after I finished, Yeah it's four hours and 71 00:04:06.840 --> 00:04:08.680 twenty nine minutes and thirty five seconds. 72 00:04:08.960 --> 00:04:11.479 Yeah, yeah, you did like a three year hiatus after that. 73 00:04:11.520 --> 00:04:16.160 I get it, big big break. I couldn't go straight 74 00:04:16.199 --> 00:04:16.639 back to it. 75 00:04:16.759 --> 00:04:19.079 So this is a lot of people that are into 76 00:04:19.079 --> 00:04:21.360 physical media. It's some of their favorite types of videos. 77 00:04:21.360 --> 00:04:23.319 So what are you doing in the video? Because it 78 00:04:23.360 --> 00:04:26.040 is it's very different than other videos of this kind. 79 00:04:27.920 --> 00:04:30.079 See, I wouldn't know that because I don't watch them. 80 00:04:30.120 --> 00:04:35.639 So it's me going over every single thing that I 81 00:04:35.720 --> 00:04:39.839 own over and in that corner movie wise, even the 82 00:04:40.120 --> 00:04:44.839 stuff on top. You know, I go top to bottom, 83 00:04:44.879 --> 00:04:48.199 just kind of talking about what the movie is, why 84 00:04:48.240 --> 00:04:50.000 I own it, where I got it, what I think 85 00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:52.720 about the movie and such. It took me, I think, 86 00:04:52.759 --> 00:04:57.560 two weeks to film it because like I would sit 87 00:04:57.600 --> 00:04:59.879 there for it takes a long time to talk about these. 88 00:05:00.879 --> 00:05:03.399 I was thinking, like, Okay, it wouldn't be that bad, 89 00:05:03.560 --> 00:05:06.000 you know, you talk about a movie for like a 90 00:05:06.040 --> 00:05:08.360 minute or whatever. But the problem is if you have 91 00:05:08.639 --> 00:05:11.000 like eight hundred movie because that's not even the biggest 92 00:05:11.040 --> 00:05:14.920 collection ever, it's relatively small compared to a lot of people's. 93 00:05:15.839 --> 00:05:19.240 But like if you talk about at least, you know, 94 00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:22.639 one movie for two minutes and then average that out, 95 00:05:23.319 --> 00:05:27.480 it's so much time. So yeah, it was. It was 96 00:05:27.519 --> 00:05:30.920 absolutely killing me to make that video. I was regretting it. 97 00:05:31.000 --> 00:05:31.720 Halfway through. 98 00:05:32.759 --> 00:05:34.639 I went, you know, I'm gonna I'm gonna listen to 99 00:05:34.680 --> 00:05:36.519 this while I work. It'll probably take a few days, 100 00:05:36.560 --> 00:05:38.920 no big deal. I got through like the first fifteen 101 00:05:38.959 --> 00:05:41.920 titles and I was already like, oh man, now if 102 00:05:41.959 --> 00:05:44.120 you go add stuff to a wish list, And by 103 00:05:44.160 --> 00:05:46.279 that point, I'm already lost, and I'm like, Jesus, what 104 00:05:46.360 --> 00:05:49.600 is going on. We're eight minutes into this And he 105 00:05:49.680 --> 00:05:52.879 said these were quicker than the rest, and oh boy, 106 00:05:52.959 --> 00:05:56.639 And yeah, it's a it is a long haul video, however, 107 00:05:57.240 --> 00:06:00.000 very worth it to find out like somebody's inner psyche 108 00:06:00.079 --> 00:06:02.279 of why they own many of these, what they like 109 00:06:02.360 --> 00:06:05.720 about them, old experiences with them. It's it's well done. 110 00:06:06.120 --> 00:06:08.560 So a lot of that showed up. But because I 111 00:06:08.800 --> 00:06:11.040 think I told you, like The raw footage of all 112 00:06:11.079 --> 00:06:13.920 of that was about seven and a half hours, So 113 00:06:14.000 --> 00:06:17.480 there's like three hours of just me yapping about, like, 114 00:06:18.040 --> 00:06:20.439 you know, random stuff about these movies that got cut 115 00:06:21.079 --> 00:06:25.399 so to make it at least us some godly length. 116 00:06:27.120 --> 00:06:30.240 So yeah, there's so much in that. I think, honestly, 117 00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:33.720 the movies I care the least about the DVD section, 118 00:06:33.959 --> 00:06:36.120 not even the Blu rays. It's my favorite section of 119 00:06:36.160 --> 00:06:38.959 the video because like half of them aren't even mine. 120 00:06:39.120 --> 00:06:42.560 That like my fiances movies, and they're the most made 121 00:06:42.639 --> 00:06:46.079 up movies ever. Just shit, no one's ever seen, no 122 00:06:46.079 --> 00:06:52.519 one's ever heard of. It's complete bullshit, Like, yeah, it's 123 00:06:52.639 --> 00:06:57.399 random as fuck. But yeah, I did enjoy the video 124 00:06:58.040 --> 00:07:01.399 after making it. But the making of it was awful. 125 00:07:02.639 --> 00:07:06.360 Yep, yep, it's ah. It was a feat hearing hearing 126 00:07:06.399 --> 00:07:09.399 your lamenting as you recorded it and sent me messages. 127 00:07:10.600 --> 00:07:11.439 It's like every. 128 00:07:11.319 --> 00:07:15.519 Day I think, Well, one of the first few, I 129 00:07:15.519 --> 00:07:18.560 think you said something like I'm through the first three 130 00:07:18.639 --> 00:07:27.600 rows and I'm sweaty or something like yeah, yeah, great, 131 00:07:27.680 --> 00:07:32.000 I don't remember. Anyways, speaking of those shelves, what what 132 00:07:32.040 --> 00:07:34.439 have you been adding some pickups recently? 133 00:07:34.879 --> 00:07:38.519 So yeah, right, I'll just go for a little pile 134 00:07:38.519 --> 00:07:43.639 of that I've created. So I picked up The Haunting 135 00:07:43.680 --> 00:07:47.000 of Hill House the Director's cut, which I think three 136 00:07:47.000 --> 00:07:51.519 of the episodes have directors cuts. Yep, I'm a big 137 00:07:51.600 --> 00:07:58.360 Mike Flannagan guy, big Stephen Stephen King, big Shirley Jackson guy. 138 00:07:59.600 --> 00:08:02.680 And yeah, I recently read this book which got me 139 00:08:03.000 --> 00:08:07.000 back into the mood of watching it. And yeah, it's fantastic. 140 00:08:07.079 --> 00:08:09.759 It's it's a perfect show. It's a perfect horror show. 141 00:08:10.680 --> 00:08:13.199 Mike Flanagan is the go. We ended up going through 142 00:08:13.199 --> 00:08:16.959 all the Mike Flanagan stuff, so we are just I 143 00:08:16.959 --> 00:08:19.639 think like two episodes away from finishing House of Bus 144 00:08:19.680 --> 00:08:25.759 shirt nice. But yeah, Mike Flanagan, it's my guy. Directed 145 00:08:25.759 --> 00:08:28.160 The Life of Chuck this year, which I've pre ordered 146 00:08:28.319 --> 00:08:32.879 the whichever especially it. Yeah, that's the one. It was 147 00:08:32.919 --> 00:08:35.360 like a month ago, so I forgot I love that. 148 00:08:35.440 --> 00:08:38.559 I remember that for you. 149 00:08:39.039 --> 00:08:42.639 I lo that was on Okay, Oh another TV show? 150 00:08:42.679 --> 00:08:44.200 I got Season one of Fallout on. 151 00:08:44.159 --> 00:08:47.840 Four k oh nice any of it yet? Right? 152 00:08:48.399 --> 00:08:52.480 First of all, I've never played a Fallout game. But 153 00:08:52.519 --> 00:08:54.799 the show is really really good, Like it's a really 154 00:08:54.879 --> 00:08:58.080 good show. I can't speak to how like faithful it 155 00:08:58.159 --> 00:09:01.120 is because I don't know, but the show is really good. 156 00:09:01.279 --> 00:09:03.679 My biggest gripe though, is that the four K is 157 00:09:03.720 --> 00:09:06.799 like this like really thin one. Right, The standard Blu 158 00:09:06.919 --> 00:09:10.039 Ray release of this season is thick because it comes 159 00:09:10.039 --> 00:09:12.799 with like extras. It comes with like a poster and stuff, 160 00:09:13.200 --> 00:09:15.960 and I was like, why does the Blu ray have 161 00:09:16.000 --> 00:09:18.720 all this extra shit and the four K gets nothing. 162 00:09:18.879 --> 00:09:20.840 I was really upset about that, but I wasn't not 163 00:09:20.879 --> 00:09:22.120 going to buy it on four K, so. 164 00:09:23.759 --> 00:09:24.120 Weird. 165 00:09:25.519 --> 00:09:27.159 I got the Arrow release of The Good, The Bad, 166 00:09:27.159 --> 00:09:27.879 the Weird. 167 00:09:28.080 --> 00:09:29.360 Good Movie Good. 168 00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:34.799 I still need to like get back through like this 169 00:09:34.919 --> 00:09:38.200 version of it, but I've not really seen many movies 170 00:09:38.240 --> 00:09:43.799 as I've late, I might as well actually talk about 171 00:09:43.799 --> 00:09:47.159 these together. So I picked up the BFI release of Chronos, 172 00:09:47.279 --> 00:09:50.440 which is like this really chunky, very very beautiful. I 173 00:09:50.480 --> 00:09:52.320 saw this for the first time recently when I did 174 00:09:52.360 --> 00:09:57.120 my game Mother Toro Binge, and yeah, it's really really good. 175 00:09:58.600 --> 00:10:01.039 I loved it a lot. At the same time, I 176 00:10:01.080 --> 00:10:04.559 picked up Pacific Rim on four K because it's Pacific 177 00:10:04.679 --> 00:10:11.080 Rim del Toro. It's beast deep. Read that that that 178 00:10:11.080 --> 00:10:13.679 the error release of Deep Red because I was watching 179 00:10:13.679 --> 00:10:17.279 some Dario Argento movies not too long ago, and this 180 00:10:17.320 --> 00:10:22.039 is one I've never seen. Yeah, I know, everyone tells 181 00:10:22.039 --> 00:10:24.960 me like this is like one of the ones. I've 182 00:10:24.960 --> 00:10:27.159 seen a bunch of Dario Argenta, but this is like 183 00:10:27.200 --> 00:10:30.919 one of like the the most cannon ones that I 184 00:10:30.960 --> 00:10:34.080 haven't seen. So I'll get to it at some point. 185 00:10:34.600 --> 00:10:37.360 Speaking of m Night, we got Unbreakable on four K. 186 00:10:37.519 --> 00:10:39.799 Finally looks good on four K two. 187 00:10:40.960 --> 00:10:42.639 I just love it. Something I don't like how they've 188 00:10:42.679 --> 00:10:46.559 like airbrushed Bruce Willis on this cover. 189 00:10:46.639 --> 00:10:50.039 Though every single M Night film on four K from 190 00:10:50.080 --> 00:10:52.080 the studio has looked like crap. 191 00:10:52.799 --> 00:10:58.919 Yeah, dude, the signs four K is awful. It's like 192 00:10:58.919 --> 00:11:02.320 one of the scariest things I've ever seen. It's like 193 00:11:02.360 --> 00:11:05.240 they've got like mannequins of the actors that have like 194 00:11:05.360 --> 00:11:09.320 slightly melted. It looks horrific. But I had the still 195 00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:10.600 book for that, so I don't have to deal with 196 00:11:10.639 --> 00:11:11.080 that problem. 197 00:11:11.200 --> 00:11:17.799 Smart Man, Strange Darling. I love that movie. I have 198 00:11:17.879 --> 00:11:18.440 that released too. 199 00:11:19.159 --> 00:11:23.639 Yeah, it's a great movie, really love it. JT. Moulner 200 00:11:24.720 --> 00:11:28.759 recently with The Long Walk rather Long Walk, and yeah, 201 00:11:28.759 --> 00:11:30.600 everyone should go and see The Long Walk. Because it 202 00:11:30.679 --> 00:11:32.159 is really good. 203 00:11:32.879 --> 00:11:36.320 JT. Mulner currently working on the Texas Chainsaw Asker TV 204 00:11:36.480 --> 00:11:37.080 show too. 205 00:11:37.559 --> 00:11:44.960 That is true. I knew that yesterday and the last 206 00:11:44.960 --> 00:11:47.639 thing this was a pre order that I forgot. I 207 00:11:47.679 --> 00:11:54.320 pre ordered it is The Hackers four K. My friend 208 00:11:54.919 --> 00:11:58.080 recommended this movie to me weirdly enough, like I don't 209 00:11:58.120 --> 00:12:04.200 know four or someth ago or something, and I was like, 210 00:12:04.240 --> 00:12:07.759 this sounds stupid. I'm in and I watched it and 211 00:12:07.799 --> 00:12:10.840 it is stupid and I loved it. And then literally 212 00:12:10.879 --> 00:12:14.519 the next month this was announced nice and I was like, oh, 213 00:12:14.559 --> 00:12:17.039 that's crazy, So I pre ordered it like immediately. 214 00:12:17.720 --> 00:12:20.600 Very nice it is. It is a very silly movie, 215 00:12:20.600 --> 00:12:21.600 but it is quite fun. 216 00:12:21.919 --> 00:12:25.000 Yeah, it's it's so nineties. It's goofy as fuck, Like 217 00:12:26.840 --> 00:12:31.200 none of the computer stuff is at all accurate to anything. 218 00:12:31.679 --> 00:12:34.440 I don't even think it aged like eighteen months after 219 00:12:34.559 --> 00:12:38.360 that came out. Literally, I seriously about that time, I 220 00:12:38.399 --> 00:12:40.240 was like, oh, that that's very dated. It was like 221 00:12:40.279 --> 00:12:41.480 that just premiered last March. 222 00:12:42.320 --> 00:12:44.639 I'm going to be real. With the exception of Matthew 223 00:12:44.639 --> 00:12:47.919 Lillard and Angelina Jolie, I don't think this cast aged 224 00:12:48.039 --> 00:12:51.919 eighteen months. I think everyone became pretty much irrelevant as 225 00:12:51.919 --> 00:12:53.200 soon as this movie dropped. 226 00:12:53.799 --> 00:12:55.639 I can't really argue that. 227 00:12:55.720 --> 00:12:59.080 Probably actually no, because there's this one guy in it 228 00:12:59.120 --> 00:13:03.559 that's in success Yeah, that's that. I never know the 229 00:13:03.559 --> 00:13:05.679 guy's name, but we used to call him neck because 230 00:13:06.039 --> 00:13:08.159 in Succession he has like a really big bubble head 231 00:13:08.159 --> 00:13:09.840 and a really thin neck yep. 232 00:13:11.159 --> 00:13:13.799 Uh is it Ethan Embry? I always want to say that. 233 00:13:14.240 --> 00:13:16.919 It might be oh right, yeah, and it also has 234 00:13:17.600 --> 00:13:20.039 what's his name, penn from Penninella or is it? Yeah, 235 00:13:20.200 --> 00:13:23.000 I don't know which one is angel Lette? Yeah, that one. 236 00:13:23.519 --> 00:13:26.240 He's in it randomly as well. Such an odd movie 237 00:13:26.799 --> 00:13:29.559 it is, Yeah, hakash Me. 238 00:13:30.320 --> 00:13:32.559 I've got a very small amount of things to talk about. 239 00:13:32.600 --> 00:13:35.039 But the first is the newest issue of the magazine 240 00:13:35.120 --> 00:13:37.639 finally showed up a get three weeks into the month, 241 00:13:37.840 --> 00:13:42.240 and uh, it is really nice in the hand check 242 00:13:42.320 --> 00:13:44.480 this out. I posted about Patroon. We'll talk about that tonight, 243 00:13:44.519 --> 00:13:46.360 but if you sign up in the next couple of days, 244 00:13:46.360 --> 00:13:50.720 you can still get that issue before October rolls around. Oh, 245 00:13:50.799 --> 00:13:52.919 I did not mean Fisher Stevens. If that's who it is, 246 00:13:53.279 --> 00:13:56.320 that's really funny because they are not related in any way, 247 00:13:56.840 --> 00:14:01.919 thanks Simmer. My next pickup is a lot of maca Oops, 248 00:14:02.600 --> 00:14:05.960 I'm dumb. My next is the Mondo Macabre pickup. This 249 00:14:06.039 --> 00:14:09.159 is I Hate My Body, which is by far to 250 00:14:09.240 --> 00:14:11.840 me the most intriguing of the recent I think it 251 00:14:11.879 --> 00:14:14.960 was three films that they put out, and yeah, these 252 00:14:15.000 --> 00:14:16.480 were shipping a little late, and I think there was 253 00:14:16.519 --> 00:14:19.200 a delay for some because they ran out of red cases, 254 00:14:19.879 --> 00:14:21.840 but those should be shipping down the next couple of days. 255 00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:24.480 Altered Innocence, I feel like he is not getting a 256 00:14:24.480 --> 00:14:28.840 lot of coverage lately. But I immediately had to get so 257 00:14:29.120 --> 00:14:33.240 unreal that they announced this is a music heavy release 258 00:14:33.320 --> 00:14:37.559 that they did, and I loved this inner art and yeah, 259 00:14:37.600 --> 00:14:41.840 this is one that is narrated by who is it. 260 00:14:41.840 --> 00:14:47.879 It's a man to somebody, Amanda Kramer, who's real heavy 261 00:14:47.919 --> 00:14:50.919 into this. Debbie Harry's involved heavily in this. I'm very 262 00:14:50.919 --> 00:14:53.440 curious about this one. So we'll be checking that out. 263 00:14:53.759 --> 00:14:56.000 And then we're talking about Umbrella tonight and their second 264 00:14:56.000 --> 00:14:59.320 announcement or sorry, their announcement for the second volume of 265 00:14:59.399 --> 00:15:02.919 the New Zealand Cult films that they're doing. I just 266 00:15:02.960 --> 00:15:05.919 got in the first volume. This is Kiwi Cult Volume one. 267 00:15:06.639 --> 00:15:12.000 This has in it the irreparable truth about demons, perfect 268 00:15:12.000 --> 00:15:16.360 Creatures or sorry, perfect Creature and Under the Mountain three films, 269 00:15:16.399 --> 00:15:19.320 three Separate Cases comes with the book Nothing Else Crazy. 270 00:15:19.360 --> 00:15:22.399 It's not like one of the Umbrella collectors editions that 271 00:15:22.399 --> 00:15:24.519 are super lavish. It's basically just a hard box on 272 00:15:24.559 --> 00:15:26.759 a book that you get with it. But for New 273 00:15:26.840 --> 00:15:29.320 Zealand films that even like a lot of New Zealand 274 00:15:29.360 --> 00:15:31.919 individuals don't know about, I feel like this is a 275 00:15:31.960 --> 00:15:35.480 pretty good deal for three decent movies. Noodles is saying, 276 00:15:35.559 --> 00:15:37.600 what label is this? This is Umbrella. If you're talking 277 00:15:37.600 --> 00:15:41.399 about the last one that was Altered Innocence. Altered Innocence, 278 00:15:43.399 --> 00:15:45.720 you had gotten a little bit burned out on movies, 279 00:15:45.799 --> 00:15:47.759 so you were not watching stuff for quite some time. 280 00:15:48.639 --> 00:15:52.120 Tonight with us talking about Denzel, that reignited some things. 281 00:15:52.120 --> 00:15:53.960 Do you want to share anything about the movies you've 282 00:15:53.960 --> 00:15:55.320 watched this week or do you want to play koy 283 00:15:55.399 --> 00:15:57.159 until the end? Well? 284 00:15:57.279 --> 00:16:00.759 Yeah, so this is so. I watched like a lot 285 00:16:00.799 --> 00:16:05.120 of a lot of movies, and when I started my 286 00:16:05.200 --> 00:16:07.600 new job from working from home, I ended up watching 287 00:16:07.639 --> 00:16:10.360 like five six movies a day, and it got to 288 00:16:10.360 --> 00:16:12.600 the point where, like I just I couldn't stand watching 289 00:16:12.600 --> 00:16:16.200 movies anymore. And then so I started reading more, and 290 00:16:16.240 --> 00:16:19.720 then I started watching TV shows a bit more with 291 00:16:19.759 --> 00:16:25.120 my partner. And yeah, I've waved in and out. But 292 00:16:25.600 --> 00:16:29.320 this last week I was like, right, I probably should watch, 293 00:16:29.360 --> 00:16:31.799 you know, one or two Denzel films just to refresh 294 00:16:31.840 --> 00:16:36.080 my mind. And I watched My Bed of Blues and 295 00:16:36.120 --> 00:16:38.679 I was like, man, I love Denzel. So I've ended 296 00:16:38.720 --> 00:16:43.120 up watching ten Denzel movies this month, this month, this week. 297 00:16:43.559 --> 00:16:47.279 So actually I say that the last like three days, 298 00:16:48.000 --> 00:16:50.879 I watched tenth and Denzel movies. Not all of them 299 00:16:50.879 --> 00:16:54.080 are on the list, but yeah, some of them are. 300 00:16:55.000 --> 00:16:56.759 There's no point going into them because most of them 301 00:16:56.799 --> 00:17:00.480 I'm going to talk about at some point. I'll probably 302 00:17:00.480 --> 00:17:04.039 find a way to squeeze in the other ones into 303 00:17:04.079 --> 00:17:08.000 some like conversation. Anyway, But before that, what did I watch? 304 00:17:08.039 --> 00:17:12.200 I watched Eddington, which, oh yeah, I'm like a known 305 00:17:12.519 --> 00:17:17.759 ri Asta hater. He's off fraud Watch. I put him 306 00:17:17.759 --> 00:17:20.640 on fraud Watch for a while, but I'm taking him 307 00:17:20.640 --> 00:17:24.160 off because Eddington was all right. It was decent, good 308 00:17:24.160 --> 00:17:25.119 little movie. 309 00:17:25.720 --> 00:17:28.079 Off fraud Watch is hilarious to say about one of 310 00:17:28.480 --> 00:17:31.200 the most highest acclaim up and cutting directors. 311 00:17:32.279 --> 00:17:38.200 The Man's a fraud. I watched I Know What You 312 00:17:38.200 --> 00:17:42.079 Did last summer, the new one. I'm sorry about that. Yeah, horrific. 313 00:17:43.359 --> 00:17:45.319 I was live updating you while I was watching it. It 314 00:17:45.359 --> 00:17:46.920 took me half a day to watch it because I 315 00:17:47.000 --> 00:17:51.200 kept stopping. I couldn't watch it was awful. And then yeah, 316 00:17:51.200 --> 00:17:53.680 I just watched some other stuff from this year. Found 317 00:17:53.720 --> 00:17:57.319 footage the making of The Patterson Project, which was okay together, 318 00:17:57.920 --> 00:18:00.519 oh hi, and The Long Walk, which is fantastic. 319 00:18:00.640 --> 00:18:03.599 Oh did you like? OHI I don't remember if you. 320 00:18:05.559 --> 00:18:07.319 I didn't like, write a review or nothing, but I 321 00:18:07.359 --> 00:18:08.119 thought it was okay. 322 00:18:08.319 --> 00:18:08.839 It was good. 323 00:18:09.119 --> 00:18:11.039 It was a charming little movie. I don't think like 324 00:18:11.119 --> 00:18:13.720 I'll be talking about it at any point, but. 325 00:18:13.839 --> 00:18:17.240 Like visual essay springs to now, but it's fine. 326 00:18:18.319 --> 00:18:20.279 And then yeah, I also watched Highest to Lowest. 327 00:18:20.400 --> 00:18:23.759 Obviously, of course Karin wants to know if if you're 328 00:18:23.759 --> 00:18:25.559 okay with sharing, what do you do for a job. 329 00:18:26.119 --> 00:18:32.200 I don't know that. I'm so eneruptured by myself. I 330 00:18:32.279 --> 00:18:37.279 am a QA so a quality quality assurance for a 331 00:18:37.359 --> 00:18:42.000 tech company. So basically we run like it's it's called 332 00:18:42.000 --> 00:18:45.720 a PIN, which basically just means we manage data for 333 00:18:46.039 --> 00:18:48.599 companies like if you're in the you guys have do 334 00:18:48.640 --> 00:18:51.039 you guys have JD JD Sports? I don't know if 335 00:18:51.079 --> 00:18:56.440 you do, probably not JD Sports. It's like a UK 336 00:18:56.759 --> 00:19:01.000 like chain where they sat like trainers and yeah, football 337 00:19:01.000 --> 00:19:06.079 tops and whatever. They're online stores. That date is managed 338 00:19:06.160 --> 00:19:09.039 for us, so they don't update their website directly, they 339 00:19:09.079 --> 00:19:12.559 do it through us and whatever. Anyway, if a code 340 00:19:12.559 --> 00:19:15.119 developer makes a bit of code changes the system, I'm 341 00:19:15.119 --> 00:19:17.839 the one that has to make sure it works. Pretty much, 342 00:19:17.920 --> 00:19:19.119 that's a that's my job. 343 00:19:20.279 --> 00:19:20.920 Not too bad. 344 00:19:21.319 --> 00:19:22.960 Yeah, I get to I get to break code for 345 00:19:23.000 --> 00:19:23.319 a living. 346 00:19:23.400 --> 00:19:28.559 Basically break code and then attempt to fix it. What 347 00:19:28.640 --> 00:19:30.240 do you call the fraud? As much as mediocre to 348 00:19:30.319 --> 00:19:34.480 consistently underwhelming, says Noodles. I get that. I think a 349 00:19:34.519 --> 00:19:39.079 lot of people feel that way. Actually recent watches for me, 350 00:19:39.400 --> 00:19:42.160 so this has been a wild week. We started off 351 00:19:42.160 --> 00:19:44.400 with the Patreon watch along was this last weekend in 352 00:19:44.440 --> 00:19:47.880 the discord and we watched a Pedro Almadovar film from 353 00:19:47.920 --> 00:19:52.640 nineteen eighty three called Dark Habits It Is. It was 354 00:19:52.680 --> 00:19:59.559 an interesting response. Yeah, so it is quite early and 355 00:19:59.599 --> 00:20:03.960 almador our career, so it doesn't have his his skill 356 00:20:04.039 --> 00:20:08.440 mastered yet. It's still quite stylish, but it was certainly 357 00:20:08.440 --> 00:20:10.279 not for me. Pretty Much everything else I've seen from 358 00:20:10.319 --> 00:20:14.000 him has been vastly superior. However, still worth the watch. 359 00:20:14.680 --> 00:20:17.319 You see some nuns doing Heroin. If that's your bag, 360 00:20:17.440 --> 00:20:21.519 I guess it's. It's not a terrible movie, you tell me, Dovar, 361 00:20:21.599 --> 00:20:23.720 So yeah, it was never gonna be awful, but no 362 00:20:23.880 --> 00:20:28.200 worth watch. After that, I had my of course theater 363 00:20:28.279 --> 00:20:29.920 day at the weekend. There was only a triple feature 364 00:20:30.000 --> 00:20:35.200 this weekend, went and saw him about that, went saw 365 00:20:35.240 --> 00:20:38.000 a big, bold, beautiful Journey. This is the newest one 366 00:20:38.039 --> 00:20:42.960 with Margot Robbie and Colin Ferrell and this one go ahead. 367 00:20:43.960 --> 00:20:46.160 No, I've not seen it, so I can't ready comments 368 00:20:46.160 --> 00:20:47.920 on it, which is weird. It's not often that someone's 369 00:20:47.920 --> 00:20:49.599 seen a new movie and I haven't, so this is 370 00:20:49.680 --> 00:20:54.319 like a fun, refreshing moment. I just didn't know it existed. 371 00:20:55.599 --> 00:20:57.680 Yeah, the marketing has been weird, like I've seen. I've 372 00:20:57.680 --> 00:20:59.720 seen the trailer a lot because I go to the 373 00:20:59.720 --> 00:21:02.119 theater every single weekend. But other than that, I don't 374 00:21:02.119 --> 00:21:03.839 think I've heard of it outside of the theater. 375 00:21:04.559 --> 00:21:08.799 I literally saw a TikTok about it yesterday and I 376 00:21:08.839 --> 00:21:10.759 was like, Oh, what's Colin Farrell dude like hanging out 377 00:21:10.759 --> 00:21:14.319 with Margot Robbie. That's so weird. And then the like 378 00:21:14.359 --> 00:21:16.240 in the little description it was like going say, and 379 00:21:16.319 --> 00:21:20.079 I was like, I have a movie. Yeah, why isn't 380 00:21:20.079 --> 00:21:20.759 that everywhere? 381 00:21:21.079 --> 00:21:23.440 What's funny is your response to it is basically the 382 00:21:23.480 --> 00:21:25.400 response that I felt in the theater. I was like, 383 00:21:25.480 --> 00:21:30.200 why are they hanging out next week? They had zero chemistry. 384 00:21:30.240 --> 00:21:32.319 I get that everybody has been saying that, but it's 385 00:21:32.319 --> 00:21:36.000 absolutely true. It certainly feels like they're they're both falling 386 00:21:36.039 --> 00:21:38.519 in love with different people that aren't in the movie 387 00:21:38.559 --> 00:21:42.839 with them. Oddly, the biggest thing like it's it's a 388 00:21:42.880 --> 00:21:45.400 beautiful movie. It's shot wonderfully. It's Coconata, so it's going 389 00:21:45.440 --> 00:21:48.960 to be colorful and like whimsical and stuff. However, the 390 00:21:49.559 --> 00:21:55.079 dialogue certainly a little awkward for me. It definitely felt 391 00:21:55.240 --> 00:21:57.079 a little less human than I think they would have 392 00:21:57.079 --> 00:22:00.359 been in the moment. It's meant to be like a 393 00:22:00.440 --> 00:22:03.480 bubblegum pop type of script, it feels like, and it's 394 00:22:03.640 --> 00:22:07.039 it's quite mainstream in that effect that the plot itself 395 00:22:07.079 --> 00:22:09.680 is not mainstream. So I feel like those are sort 396 00:22:09.680 --> 00:22:13.599 of juxtaposing a bit. I like this, but as as 397 00:22:13.640 --> 00:22:15.680 Simnars trying to say it puts Life of Chuck to shame, 398 00:22:15.920 --> 00:22:19.440 it does not. Life of Chuck is miles beyond. 399 00:22:21.200 --> 00:22:23.759 I haven't even seen this movie. I'll break this screen 400 00:22:24.400 --> 00:22:28.799 until dad. 401 00:22:30.799 --> 00:22:34.839 That's really funny. Followed that up though, with my favorite 402 00:22:34.839 --> 00:22:36.880 movie of the week, which is The History of Sound. 403 00:22:37.160 --> 00:22:39.640 This is the newest one with Paul Meskal, which I 404 00:22:39.759 --> 00:22:42.200 fell in love with after After Sun, because that movie 405 00:22:42.440 --> 00:22:45.640 is a masterpiece. I've seen it, gosh, I think five 406 00:22:45.720 --> 00:22:47.839 times or four times in the last three years already. 407 00:22:48.319 --> 00:22:50.559 But the big thing is he stars with Josh O'Connor 408 00:22:50.599 --> 00:22:54.000 and they're both just magnificent. In this movie. It's about 409 00:22:54.039 --> 00:22:58.559 two students at a music conservatory in I think it's 410 00:22:58.559 --> 00:23:00.720 Boston or the Northeast somewhere like that, in like the 411 00:23:00.759 --> 00:23:04.559 mid nineteen tens. They're literally in the middle of the 412 00:23:04.599 --> 00:23:07.000 First World War and that comes into play a little bit. 413 00:23:07.000 --> 00:23:11.279 But it's this very quaint, slow moving story about their 414 00:23:11.319 --> 00:23:17.240 relationship forming as friends and like lifelong friends and more 415 00:23:17.440 --> 00:23:21.000 obviously as that goes on, because they're inseparable, and then 416 00:23:21.000 --> 00:23:23.680 they're forced to separate, and then they are separated without 417 00:23:23.720 --> 00:23:26.519 their choice, and there's a lot of anguishes that goes through. 418 00:23:26.559 --> 00:23:30.880 But the big thing is it's they're collecting songs, is 419 00:23:30.920 --> 00:23:32.519 the way that they put it in the movie, And 420 00:23:32.559 --> 00:23:35.240 they're going around with wax cylinders for people to record, 421 00:23:35.799 --> 00:23:38.359 and when they get them, it's supposed to be going 422 00:23:38.400 --> 00:23:41.759 into the conservatory for this big music program. But it 423 00:23:41.880 --> 00:23:46.839 is emotional, it is beautiful, it is wonderfully acted. If 424 00:23:46.880 --> 00:23:49.440 you don't like slow cinema, you're probably not gonna like 425 00:23:49.480 --> 00:23:52.559 this movie. It's not like nothing happens type of cinema, 426 00:23:53.000 --> 00:23:57.279 but it is a very almost like melodrama type of 427 00:23:57.720 --> 00:24:04.960 twenty twenty five tempt at telling history through a romantic, 428 00:24:05.559 --> 00:24:08.960 interspersed life story type of movie. And it's great. I 429 00:24:09.000 --> 00:24:11.079 walked out of the movie and told my wife, I 430 00:24:11.079 --> 00:24:14.599 think we just watched Gay White Sinners and that's how 431 00:24:14.640 --> 00:24:18.279 it felt. But I've gotta be honest, the same year 432 00:24:18.319 --> 00:24:21.079 that Sinners came out, they'd probably make a double feature 433 00:24:21.279 --> 00:24:25.960 to just absolutely wreck you emotionally and musically. It's a 434 00:24:26.000 --> 00:24:30.079 really good time. Yeah, check out the History of Sound 435 00:24:30.119 --> 00:24:32.519 because I feel like hardly anybody is going to see 436 00:24:32.519 --> 00:24:32.880 that movie. 437 00:24:34.720 --> 00:24:37.720 Okay, I'll watch it. You convinced me. 438 00:24:38.319 --> 00:24:42.119 There's one A very passionate the last thing I watched 439 00:24:42.160 --> 00:24:45.279 this week, which I'm only saying this because I'm leading 440 00:24:45.359 --> 00:24:47.720 into a watch of the sequel on Saturday, and I'm 441 00:24:48.119 --> 00:24:49.920 very much not looking forward to it. I finally got 442 00:24:49.920 --> 00:24:52.359 to see The Strangers Chapter one, and all I have 443 00:24:52.480 --> 00:24:54.319 to say is, why did they make that movie? It 444 00:24:54.480 --> 00:24:59.759 is the hottest of hot garbage. My dear friend Dustin, 445 00:24:59.759 --> 00:25:01.599 who he is probably gonna watch us at some point 446 00:25:01.640 --> 00:25:04.559 in comment and say, oh my gosh, he posted a 447 00:25:04.640 --> 00:25:07.039 review of it today because he watched the first one again. 448 00:25:08.160 --> 00:25:11.119 He really likes the first one, and Dustin, I'm sorry 449 00:25:11.160 --> 00:25:13.359 that you hit your head this morning. The Strangers Chapter 450 00:25:13.440 --> 00:25:16.440 one is not good. It's not good in the least bit. 451 00:25:16.599 --> 00:25:18.680 I don't know why they had to do this. It 452 00:25:18.880 --> 00:25:21.400 is a beat for beat remake, but like they were 453 00:25:21.480 --> 00:25:25.160 making it while trying to find out if they could 454 00:25:25.240 --> 00:25:27.319 close all the doors and not have oxygen and see 455 00:25:27.359 --> 00:25:29.920 how long they could survive. Because it's bad, It's real bad. 456 00:25:31.240 --> 00:25:33.519 No. I did write a big piece of out Strangers 457 00:25:33.599 --> 00:25:35.640 chapter one somewhere and I just thought, I thought like 458 00:25:35.720 --> 00:25:37.359 it might have just been on letterbox, but it's not, 459 00:25:37.440 --> 00:25:41.880 so I have no idea where that is. It's awful. Yeah, 460 00:25:43.079 --> 00:25:45.640 it is terrible. It is just the first movie or 461 00:25:45.720 --> 00:25:47.039 Lover Again, but way worse. 462 00:25:49.480 --> 00:25:52.200 Yeah, there's so many asked nine decisions about it, Like 463 00:25:52.720 --> 00:25:54.160 the big one that I'll point out. And this is 464 00:25:54.200 --> 00:25:57.880 not a spoiler in any way, but the main character's boyfriend, 465 00:25:58.440 --> 00:26:02.160 he just randomly goes and gets on a motorcycle that 466 00:26:02.319 --> 00:26:05.759 he's never driven before, knows how to start it, knows 467 00:26:05.799 --> 00:26:08.680 how to drive into town after like a wet, rainy day, 468 00:26:09.240 --> 00:26:11.359 and goes and gets food and he's totally fine, and 469 00:26:11.480 --> 00:26:14.000 he gets back to the house and all that. Why 470 00:26:14.720 --> 00:26:17.839 he would not have been able to do that. It's 471 00:26:17.880 --> 00:26:21.319 not something he could do. The sequel is going to 472 00:26:21.359 --> 00:26:24.279 be the same director as Strangers chapter one, noodles, but 473 00:26:24.400 --> 00:26:26.960 it's not the same director as the two thousand and 474 00:26:26.960 --> 00:26:30.799 eight one. Very different, much much worse. 475 00:26:32.480 --> 00:26:35.640 Yeah, if you want to watch The Strangers chapter one, 476 00:26:36.319 --> 00:26:39.519 just rewatch The Strangers and you'll be good. 477 00:26:40.359 --> 00:26:42.559 Rewatch the Strangers, but close one eye and stand on 478 00:26:42.640 --> 00:26:45.599 your head, and it's basically Strangers chapter one that works. 479 00:26:47.440 --> 00:26:49.000 I've not finished it yet, but I did want to 480 00:26:49.000 --> 00:26:53.079 give a shout out. I started watching Ephis this movie 481 00:26:53.160 --> 00:26:57.440 freaking rules. Yeah, it is such a good hangout vibe, 482 00:26:57.640 --> 00:27:01.480 just great time. I've got about twenty five minutes left, 483 00:27:01.559 --> 00:27:03.960 but it is a blast. One of the best of 484 00:27:04.000 --> 00:27:06.599 the year by far. Definitely gonna be top ten, top 485 00:27:06.640 --> 00:27:07.400 fifteen for me. 486 00:27:08.319 --> 00:27:10.079 Yeah, I have it quite high in my in my 487 00:27:10.319 --> 00:27:14.279 list as currents. I've seen one hundred and twelve twenty 488 00:27:14.359 --> 00:27:19.000 twenty five films and it's just outside the top ten. 489 00:27:20.119 --> 00:27:22.640 I am doing way better than I've ever done in 490 00:27:22.759 --> 00:27:24.599 a current year, and I think this is going to be. 491 00:27:25.160 --> 00:27:27.079 Oh before I answer this, let me let me make sure, 492 00:27:27.119 --> 00:27:29.079 because I don't think I'm including the ones from this 493 00:27:29.200 --> 00:27:32.720 last weekend. Once Ephis gets added in there, I will 494 00:27:32.759 --> 00:27:36.759 be at ninety two, and for me, that's really high. 495 00:27:36.839 --> 00:27:38.720 I used to be like this, finish the year at 496 00:27:38.759 --> 00:27:40.680 like forty if I'm lucky. 497 00:27:41.759 --> 00:27:42.400 Look at you go. 498 00:27:43.000 --> 00:27:45.400 Yeah, this will go into the theater for a whole 499 00:27:45.480 --> 00:27:52.039 day every weekend really kind of helps. I've noticed it 500 00:27:52.160 --> 00:27:54.440 is a good movie. Check it out, noodles. It's a blast. 501 00:27:54.720 --> 00:27:57.480 It is it's very good, all. 502 00:27:57.480 --> 00:28:00.839 Right, anything planned for you show that you want to 503 00:28:00.880 --> 00:28:04.839 highlight before we get into the announcements tonight. Well, oh. 504 00:28:06.559 --> 00:28:11.240 No, I am working on a video very very slowly, 505 00:28:12.599 --> 00:28:15.720 but I just I don't have the motivation to do 506 00:28:15.880 --> 00:28:18.319 a lot of it. I mean, I've done it's a 507 00:28:18.400 --> 00:28:20.680 big project again, just like the last one, and I've 508 00:28:20.839 --> 00:28:24.920 edited about like I don't have an hour of it. 509 00:28:26.279 --> 00:28:29.839 And even then that, like that hour is not even 510 00:28:29.960 --> 00:28:33.480 touching like a quarter of it. So it's a big 511 00:28:33.519 --> 00:28:35.559 boy project, so it won't be for a very long time. 512 00:28:35.640 --> 00:28:39.519 So well, I've got two more things to talk about 513 00:28:39.519 --> 00:28:42.640 before we do announcements. One heavily involves Chrits, So I'm 514 00:28:42.640 --> 00:28:46.079 gonna bring that one up real quick. You got to 515 00:28:46.319 --> 00:28:48.839 help with a disc in the last couple of weeks. 516 00:28:48.880 --> 00:28:51.039 You got to edit a piece for the imprint release 517 00:28:51.079 --> 00:28:56.640 of Jade Damn right, I did. Yeah, that was fun. 518 00:28:58.240 --> 00:29:00.880 You know, you kind of crushed it. It was like the. 519 00:29:00.920 --> 00:29:07.000 Quickest turnaround of anything I've ever edited ever, because I 520 00:29:07.079 --> 00:29:13.160 don't ever like edit anything with any urgency, not anymore anyway. 521 00:29:13.240 --> 00:29:15.160 Like back when I used to do two videos a week, 522 00:29:15.240 --> 00:29:17.319 there was a lot of urgency, but since I stopped 523 00:29:17.319 --> 00:29:20.400 doing that, there's none at all. But as soon as 524 00:29:20.440 --> 00:29:23.279 you messaged me about that, I was like, I was like, yep, 525 00:29:23.400 --> 00:29:25.759 I'll do that, like the next day, I'm available. 526 00:29:26.759 --> 00:29:29.680 You you did an absolutely wonderful job. Michelle is very 527 00:29:29.680 --> 00:29:32.680 happy with how her essay turned out with your panache 528 00:29:32.799 --> 00:29:35.440 on it. How was that different in all compared to 529 00:29:35.519 --> 00:29:38.160 all the visual essays you do for your channel or 530 00:29:38.200 --> 00:29:39.880 did it feel like you had just been studying this 531 00:29:40.039 --> 00:29:40.680 for years now? 532 00:29:43.720 --> 00:29:45.680 I don't know how to say this sounded like a dick, 533 00:29:45.920 --> 00:29:46.240 but like. 534 00:29:46.400 --> 00:29:47.799 It sounds like a dick, we want to hear. 535 00:29:47.720 --> 00:29:56.359 That it was way easier than my channel. Ways you one, Yeah, 536 00:29:57.799 --> 00:30:03.759 like editing for a YouTube audience is a lot different 537 00:30:03.799 --> 00:30:05.960 than editing for, like, you know, someone that's watching like 538 00:30:06.000 --> 00:30:09.480 a bonus feature, Because if someone's sat there to watch 539 00:30:09.559 --> 00:30:12.559 a bonus feature, they've already kind of processed in their 540 00:30:12.599 --> 00:30:15.960 head that they're just sitting there watching this thing whatever. 541 00:30:16.079 --> 00:30:19.359 But like with YouTube, like I feel like it has 542 00:30:19.400 --> 00:30:22.480 to be so stimulating all the time, you know, as 543 00:30:22.559 --> 00:30:24.839 people lose interest and it doesn't get picked up and 544 00:30:24.920 --> 00:30:27.960 blah blah blah blah blah. And also like the copyright thing, 545 00:30:29.160 --> 00:30:32.359 like if anyone watches my videos, you I mean, especially 546 00:30:32.519 --> 00:30:35.720 like recent times, there's a cut in the footage every 547 00:30:35.799 --> 00:30:39.440 four seconds or so, which which makes like a ten 548 00:30:39.519 --> 00:30:44.319 minute video take hours to edit. Whereas this you don't 549 00:30:44.359 --> 00:30:46.200 have to worry about the copywriter as much. You still 550 00:30:46.240 --> 00:30:48.160 have to worry about pacing and stuff, so you cut 551 00:30:48.240 --> 00:30:50.359 it appropriate times and stuff like that, but like you 552 00:30:50.440 --> 00:30:53.119 don't have to worry about getting trip top as much. 553 00:30:54.960 --> 00:30:58.759 Plus it's just more fun because I didn't know really 554 00:30:58.880 --> 00:31:01.759 what was in there. It was about whereas like when 555 00:31:01.799 --> 00:31:04.440 it's me, I know exactly what it is. It's scheduled, 556 00:31:04.519 --> 00:31:07.640 just regimented. Like when I write a script, I will 557 00:31:07.799 --> 00:31:11.799 already in a separate folder, have like it planned the 558 00:31:12.000 --> 00:31:14.680 editing from top to bottom, what images I need, what 559 00:31:14.880 --> 00:31:18.039 footage I need, and it's all numbered, so when I've 560 00:31:18.200 --> 00:31:21.680 taken into the program, it's all in place kind of already. 561 00:31:22.400 --> 00:31:25.119 And with this, it was just kind of like listen 562 00:31:25.200 --> 00:31:27.039 to it and figure it out, which was like fun. 563 00:31:27.960 --> 00:31:30.599 Yeah, And one thing I got to find out because 564 00:31:30.599 --> 00:31:33.640 I've not asked this just had you seen Jade before 565 00:31:33.720 --> 00:31:35.400 this edit? Or was this the first time watch? 566 00:31:36.559 --> 00:31:43.079 I didn't watch it, which made edit in it like 567 00:31:43.440 --> 00:31:47.079 really difficult because anytime, like she mentioned like a character 568 00:31:47.240 --> 00:31:49.200 in the movie, I had to google who the character 569 00:31:49.440 --> 00:31:52.160 was just to make sure. But I feel like I've 570 00:31:52.200 --> 00:31:54.640 seen it now because I've had to, Like I had 571 00:31:54.680 --> 00:31:56.440 the footage of the whole movie and I was like 572 00:31:56.680 --> 00:31:58.160 going through and I was like, so I know what 573 00:31:58.200 --> 00:32:01.000 it's about. I know the engine, like I've never like 574 00:32:01.160 --> 00:32:06.519 properly seen it, but yeah, it made That's why there 575 00:32:06.599 --> 00:32:08.680 was like a whole confusion was like a character's name 576 00:32:08.920 --> 00:32:10.680 and stuff like that, and it was tripping me out 577 00:32:10.720 --> 00:32:15.119 because I was like, I'm missing something here, but no, 578 00:32:16.599 --> 00:32:19.279 I want to see it, and if I get a 579 00:32:19.359 --> 00:32:22.519 copy of this release, then I'll definitely. 580 00:32:22.240 --> 00:32:23.319 See it the film. 581 00:32:23.799 --> 00:32:30.480 Yeah, but you know, but yeah, if I get this copy, 582 00:32:30.559 --> 00:32:33.240 I probably will watch it. It's freedkin, of course I'm 583 00:32:33.240 --> 00:32:33.720 going to watch it. 584 00:32:34.759 --> 00:32:38.079 Yeah. It's uh, it's it's really good. I think it's 585 00:32:38.079 --> 00:32:41.839 a lot better than people give it credit for. Yeah. 586 00:32:41.920 --> 00:32:45.680 I looked and like the I can't remember exactly what 587 00:32:45.799 --> 00:32:48.200 the Rotten Tomatoes is. Let me let me have a loop. 588 00:32:48.599 --> 00:32:50.319 It's not great, No, it's awful. 589 00:32:50.400 --> 00:32:51.839 It's like eighteen percent. 590 00:32:52.279 --> 00:32:56.279 Yeah. The big problem is it came out like three 591 00:32:56.400 --> 00:33:00.119 weeks or four weeks after show Girls and everyone he 592 00:33:00.240 --> 00:33:04.680 was like, oh, ironic thrillers are done now, and Jade 593 00:33:04.720 --> 00:33:07.160 came out and everybody's like, yeah, we don't care. This 594 00:33:07.319 --> 00:33:09.839 is bad, and it was. It was just poorly made, 595 00:33:09.880 --> 00:33:12.440 when in our reality it's Friedkin. It's wonderfully made. There's 596 00:33:12.440 --> 00:33:15.759 a really great chase scene in it, some like gnarly 597 00:33:16.000 --> 00:33:20.039 very adult scenes with some like really crazy blood for 598 00:33:20.480 --> 00:33:24.200 a pretty mainstream movie that came out. Well, this is 599 00:33:24.359 --> 00:33:24.640 the thing. 600 00:33:24.720 --> 00:33:29.480 I saw that the you know, the the eighteen percent, 601 00:33:30.319 --> 00:33:32.200 and even when I saw it, I was like, that 602 00:33:32.279 --> 00:33:36.519 doesn't look right. I've not seen this, and I'm I 603 00:33:36.680 --> 00:33:41.480 can be fairly certain. Eighteen percent is harsh, like I 604 00:33:42.160 --> 00:33:45.599 have seen what Freed can can do. And then a 605 00:33:45.720 --> 00:33:48.599 certain point it's like there's directors where like even at 606 00:33:48.680 --> 00:33:53.400 their worst, something is competent. Yeah, you know, like the 607 00:33:53.599 --> 00:33:58.160 worst Bilberg movie is still competently made, you know. 608 00:33:58.480 --> 00:34:01.200 So like especially that in his career, if it was 609 00:34:01.319 --> 00:34:03.759 like year three, maybe okay. 610 00:34:03.880 --> 00:34:07.839 Yeah, this is ninety five, Like Friedkin's not new, you know. 611 00:34:09.000 --> 00:34:13.000 So from what I saw, it looked very well made. 612 00:34:13.800 --> 00:34:16.159 It is quite well made, and Brian is right. He says, 613 00:34:16.199 --> 00:34:19.320 the problem is David Carrodine. He means David Caruso, but yeah, 614 00:34:19.679 --> 00:34:23.840 David Caruso is absolutely the problem on Jade. He doesn't 615 00:34:23.960 --> 00:34:26.599 fit tonally and I think that's why he got relegated 616 00:34:26.639 --> 00:34:31.079 to TV pretty quickly after this movie came out. Yeah. 617 00:34:32.760 --> 00:34:35.320 The other thing to bring up is a quite British 618 00:34:35.440 --> 00:34:38.159 problem this week as well. So it's it's a specific 619 00:34:38.239 --> 00:34:40.360 that krit is here. Gary is asking for it in 620 00:34:40.440 --> 00:34:42.760 the comments too, so I planned to bring this up. 621 00:34:43.239 --> 00:34:45.679 He says, could you discuss BFI's four k's of No. 622 00:34:45.800 --> 00:34:50.280 S Faratu the Vampire and A Geary the Wrath, So yeah, 623 00:34:50.559 --> 00:34:53.480 let's get into this. So there's been some quote controversy. 624 00:34:54.199 --> 00:34:57.960 BFI had announced four K releases of A Geary and No. 625 00:34:58.039 --> 00:35:02.280 Sparatu the Vampire hertzk that people love, like these are 626 00:35:02.679 --> 00:35:05.639 very beloved films. I've got literally a Noswarautu the Vampire 627 00:35:05.679 --> 00:35:09.000 poster right there that I can see. These are movies 628 00:35:09.039 --> 00:35:11.639 that people had wanted in like legendary four k's for 629 00:35:11.719 --> 00:35:15.920 the longest time, and then they come in from BFI 630 00:35:16.400 --> 00:35:19.119 and somebody's taken some screen caps and post on Reddit 631 00:35:19.440 --> 00:35:22.159 that these were restored by AI and you can tell 632 00:35:22.199 --> 00:35:25.119 by looking at the faces. And here's some screen caps 633 00:35:25.159 --> 00:35:27.679 to compare the Blu Ray and the four K. Now 634 00:35:28.239 --> 00:35:30.880 the way that they are put together. In the Reddit 635 00:35:30.960 --> 00:35:34.599 post that started this whole flame war, they look pretty 636 00:35:35.119 --> 00:35:39.440 not great. I will say, they don't look very filmic. 637 00:35:39.719 --> 00:35:43.519 They look quite de noised, and we'll get to that 638 00:35:43.679 --> 00:35:48.000 just a moment. However, I didn't see anything that would 639 00:35:48.039 --> 00:35:53.119 say immediately this is AI specifically, so I didn't really 640 00:35:53.199 --> 00:35:55.199 say anything. I didn't post anything. A couple of us 641 00:35:55.280 --> 00:35:57.559 we talked about it and dms and stuff, but that 642 00:35:57.679 --> 00:36:01.599 was it. But then mar from Orbit DVD went and 643 00:36:01.719 --> 00:36:06.079 posted that he took it home and opened it up 644 00:36:06.119 --> 00:36:07.920 because one was damaged, and watched it and he said 645 00:36:08.119 --> 00:36:12.119 it looks very good. Everybody will probably appreciate this. Now, 646 00:36:12.159 --> 00:36:14.840 a lot of people noticed, Hey, you own a retail store. 647 00:36:15.320 --> 00:36:17.800 You don't want people to cancel discs. You have every 648 00:36:17.960 --> 00:36:21.079 reason to say that this looks great. And so people 649 00:36:21.159 --> 00:36:24.239 started making Reddit posts in response to his social media posts, 650 00:36:24.239 --> 00:36:27.679 saying marks a complete liar. These look awful. He should 651 00:36:27.719 --> 00:36:31.039 not have said anything all this big hubbub. The reality 652 00:36:31.199 --> 00:36:35.440 is here's where we are. The BFI has responded in 653 00:36:35.480 --> 00:36:38.880 a couple spots on social media saying that the German 654 00:36:38.960 --> 00:36:42.719 company that restored these did not allow them to do 655 00:36:42.880 --> 00:36:45.599 any further restoration work on the scans that they were given. 656 00:36:46.440 --> 00:36:49.039 They had tinkered with them in some ways that the 657 00:36:49.119 --> 00:36:51.599 BFI does not know all the details about, and they 658 00:36:51.679 --> 00:36:53.840 were forced to choose to release them like this or 659 00:36:54.000 --> 00:36:56.800 not release them at all. Now, many of you would 660 00:36:56.800 --> 00:36:59.719 probably say, well, yeah, don't release them, because you should 661 00:36:59.760 --> 00:37:01.760 stay behind the integrity of what you're putting out and 662 00:37:01.840 --> 00:37:04.400 know that it's the highest of quality. And honestly, I 663 00:37:04.480 --> 00:37:06.639 can't really argue with that. If you think it looks bad, 664 00:37:06.760 --> 00:37:09.519 why are you releasing it? I get that, But they 665 00:37:09.559 --> 00:37:11.320 had already paid for everything. There was no way out 666 00:37:11.360 --> 00:37:13.079 of the license. It was either that or take a 667 00:37:13.159 --> 00:37:17.519 huge loss. And it's the BFI like they're supported by 668 00:37:17.639 --> 00:37:20.280 donations through the British government and a lot of other 669 00:37:20.360 --> 00:37:22.719 things that they don't have a ton of money to 670 00:37:22.840 --> 00:37:28.440 just lose on a couple giant titles. Sadly, so my 671 00:37:28.599 --> 00:37:32.800 thoughts does it look like it could be AI? Yes 672 00:37:33.039 --> 00:37:36.400 with the question mark. If you look at the screen caps, 673 00:37:36.559 --> 00:37:40.239 specifically one to one right against each other. The BLU 674 00:37:40.440 --> 00:37:47.079 ray to my eyes does look better, specifically the coloring. However, 675 00:37:47.440 --> 00:37:49.440 one of the things that I definitely want to say 676 00:37:49.679 --> 00:37:54.960 about this is that the ability to like d noise 677 00:37:55.920 --> 00:38:00.559 film in very very like the most base, not even 678 00:38:00.639 --> 00:38:05.400 like filmmaking programs or anything like that, like Da Vinci Resolve. 679 00:38:05.760 --> 00:38:08.880 You can denoise things and it looks like it is 680 00:38:08.960 --> 00:38:11.760 that level of denoising done where everything is smoothed out. 681 00:38:12.199 --> 00:38:15.559 It almost looks like like foreheads are like painted clear, 682 00:38:15.880 --> 00:38:18.679 almost not like the color clear, but like clear of 683 00:38:18.719 --> 00:38:23.559 any blemishes. You can very much tell that it's been 684 00:38:24.679 --> 00:38:28.199 had a lot of very heavy DNR applied pretty much 685 00:38:28.239 --> 00:38:32.039 throughout the entire film. It's not a great look. That 686 00:38:32.159 --> 00:38:35.119 being said, does it look so bad that you don't 687 00:38:35.119 --> 00:38:35.639 want to watch it? 688 00:38:36.039 --> 00:38:36.079 Not? 689 00:38:36.280 --> 00:38:41.400 Really? Will we ever know if it's truly AI? Probably 690 00:38:41.519 --> 00:38:45.360 not now. The sad thing is that response doesn't get 691 00:38:45.440 --> 00:38:48.280 clicks and people riled up to either buy or cancel orders. 692 00:38:48.360 --> 00:38:53.480 That will never be discussed with Nuance anywhere. But yeah, 693 00:38:53.800 --> 00:38:57.039 we probably just don't know what it was. The hard 694 00:38:57.119 --> 00:38:59.840 part is that right now everybody wants to scream a 695 00:39:00.239 --> 00:39:03.639 when there's something that they don't like, and de noising 696 00:39:03.880 --> 00:39:06.199 and scrubbing grain out of film has been around for 697 00:39:06.320 --> 00:39:10.280 a long time. That doesn't mean that it's generative AI 698 00:39:10.559 --> 00:39:14.360 doing it, which means you probably should not apply that 699 00:39:14.559 --> 00:39:18.320 term to it as an accusation publicly unless you have 700 00:39:18.440 --> 00:39:21.239 reason to believe it. One specific example that I will 701 00:39:21.239 --> 00:39:23.679 share that is very obviously doing that over the last 702 00:39:23.719 --> 00:39:26.400 couple of years is the Isle of Lucy blu Ray 703 00:39:26.440 --> 00:39:29.079 set that came out in the background of some of 704 00:39:29.119 --> 00:39:33.000 those scenes. There are faces that when they are will 705 00:39:33.000 --> 00:39:35.119 say like they're looking away from the camera like this, 706 00:39:35.320 --> 00:39:37.880 and then they start to turn. When they get about here, 707 00:39:38.400 --> 00:39:41.639 a full face appears like here, and then it distorts 708 00:39:41.760 --> 00:39:44.039 as they keep coming around with the camera. It's really 709 00:39:44.119 --> 00:39:47.519 bad if it's AI. If you're watching a moving image, 710 00:39:47.760 --> 00:39:50.159 you should be able to know very quickly. If you're 711 00:39:50.159 --> 00:39:54.960 looking at a still image, unless there's something very obviously 712 00:39:55.039 --> 00:39:58.159 fake like eighteen fingers on a hand or something like that, 713 00:39:58.719 --> 00:40:00.559 it could be quite difficult to say, see is this 714 00:40:00.760 --> 00:40:04.599 AI or is it really bad? Like removal of grain 715 00:40:04.679 --> 00:40:08.360 and smoothing. It's not great either way, Like I said, 716 00:40:08.599 --> 00:40:12.559 it does it's not something that's appealing in a filmic way. However, 717 00:40:13.280 --> 00:40:17.360 jumping to AI is ridiculous we definitely need a more 718 00:40:17.599 --> 00:40:21.480 nuanced when discussing this as a as a industry and 719 00:40:21.599 --> 00:40:26.800 as hobbyist and as people that love movies period. Any 720 00:40:26.840 --> 00:40:30.360 thoughts on AI crit other than you're you're vehemently for it. 721 00:40:31.360 --> 00:40:32.039 Uh oh. 722 00:40:33.599 --> 00:40:40.719 Yeah, I fucking love AI now and it's awful. It's 723 00:40:41.280 --> 00:40:45.639 genuinely terrible. I hate it unfortunately part of my job 724 00:40:45.840 --> 00:40:47.840 and a big part of my job actually because I 725 00:40:49.320 --> 00:40:54.760 for a like PIM system, we have an AI section 726 00:40:56.320 --> 00:41:00.400 and it doesn't work. It's broke, it's fucked. I'm the 727 00:41:00.480 --> 00:41:03.679 one that I'm like the specialist in the AI department 728 00:41:03.760 --> 00:41:08.199 to test it. Yeah, and it's awful. Like I have 729 00:41:08.360 --> 00:41:11.880 to see just bullshit AI stuff all day every day, 730 00:41:12.159 --> 00:41:16.960 and it's terrible. And to think that any of that 731 00:41:17.239 --> 00:41:21.440 gets anywhere near art, especially stuff like nus Ferati the Vampire, 732 00:41:22.079 --> 00:41:29.320 that's disheartening if true. But also like I've seen so 733 00:41:29.519 --> 00:41:36.239 many restorations that just have you know, shitty quality to 734 00:41:36.360 --> 00:41:39.559 it that makes it seem like AI even if it's not. 735 00:41:42.159 --> 00:41:47.119 But yeah, I don't know, Like I think BFI historically 736 00:41:48.239 --> 00:41:51.119 have been a decent company that put out decent releases 737 00:41:51.840 --> 00:41:53.960 and stuff like that, So I don't think like it's 738 00:41:54.320 --> 00:41:57.719 it's worth trying to like jumping straight to an accusation 739 00:41:57.880 --> 00:42:03.920 and almost ruining a reputation of a fairly innocent like distributor, 740 00:42:05.039 --> 00:42:10.480 like because the AI tag is so I don't know, 741 00:42:12.280 --> 00:42:16.920 just mark it's so marking for for for a label. 742 00:42:17.719 --> 00:42:20.920 You know, if like James Cameron used their AI to 743 00:42:21.000 --> 00:42:23.920 restore like Aliens and all of that stuff, and it's 744 00:42:24.079 --> 00:42:27.559 like it's pretty much killed all hope for any future 745 00:42:27.639 --> 00:42:31.159 James Cameron restorations. People don't want to see any of 746 00:42:31.239 --> 00:42:38.199 them at all because you know, the the AI thing. Yeah, yeah, 747 00:42:38.639 --> 00:42:40.679 So even if like you know, they do a future 748 00:42:40.719 --> 00:42:44.119 one without AI, people aren't going to care. People aren't 749 00:42:44.119 --> 00:42:46.280 going to want it because of you know, the bad 750 00:42:46.400 --> 00:42:50.760 history and they're applying that same kind of hatred or 751 00:42:51.239 --> 00:42:56.159 that same kind of mark to BFI without verification, which 752 00:42:56.199 --> 00:43:00.719 I think is very strong, especially since it's off stills. Now. 753 00:43:00.800 --> 00:43:03.559 I don't think, you know, stuff should be degrained and 754 00:43:03.599 --> 00:43:08.400 stuff like that. I personally love the texture of film, but. 755 00:43:09.920 --> 00:43:10.559 It is what it is. 756 00:43:10.760 --> 00:43:17.960 It happens all the time, you know, and stills can 757 00:43:18.079 --> 00:43:22.559 be really really deceiving, you know, like how this movie 758 00:43:22.679 --> 00:43:26.320 looks in motion and how it will look in still 759 00:43:26.480 --> 00:43:29.760 form is going to be completely different. It always is. 760 00:43:30.960 --> 00:43:33.039 The opposite is true as well, Like sometimes you see 761 00:43:33.079 --> 00:43:37.239 it still of a movie that looks amazing and then 762 00:43:37.280 --> 00:43:39.840 you watch the movie and it's awful. This is a 763 00:43:40.320 --> 00:43:44.400 terrible movie. So like you know, it goes either way. 764 00:43:44.519 --> 00:43:46.159 But yeah, AI stinks. 765 00:43:47.599 --> 00:43:50.199 I do agree with Craig who says scrubbed of grain 766 00:43:50.199 --> 00:43:53.360 should it be acceptable either? I agree fully it absolutely 767 00:43:53.400 --> 00:43:57.960 should not be. This joke is very good. Matthew. Matthew says, 768 00:43:57.960 --> 00:44:01.800 my bigest issue with AI is Haley Jolasmu's perform horments, Yes, hilarious. 769 00:44:04.480 --> 00:44:06.840 Noodle says, my biggest complaint with older films getting newer 770 00:44:06.880 --> 00:44:08.800 releases as far as their quality goes, is whether the 771 00:44:08.840 --> 00:44:11.760 skies are blue or look dirty, scratched or hyper grainy. 772 00:44:12.079 --> 00:44:14.920 I mean they should look for some of them very grainy. 773 00:44:15.039 --> 00:44:19.119 Film inherently has grain, so I can't necessarily agree with that. 774 00:44:19.239 --> 00:44:24.480 Last Brandon says, did they not agree to do restoration 775 00:44:24.519 --> 00:44:27.119 of the materials when they strike the licensing deal? How 776 00:44:27.159 --> 00:44:29.360 can the German provider, the OCN say no, you can't 777 00:44:29.400 --> 00:44:33.760 restore this because they don't allow them to do any 778 00:44:33.800 --> 00:44:36.519 more work on the materials depending on what their contract is, 779 00:44:36.559 --> 00:44:40.440 which I should state. Supposedly BFI is saying that Shout 780 00:44:40.679 --> 00:44:44.920 is actually or sorry, was actually able to do restoration 781 00:44:45.079 --> 00:44:48.800 work after the same scan that the BFI got, so 782 00:44:49.199 --> 00:44:52.079 Shouts might be very different. We have not seen those yet. 783 00:44:52.159 --> 00:44:54.800 They are also announced in coming very very soon. But 784 00:44:55.599 --> 00:44:59.480 it is absolutely something that you got to pay attention to. 785 00:45:00.079 --> 00:45:05.239 It is super important. The BFI four K of a 786 00:45:05.239 --> 00:45:07.880 Geary hadn't seen it since DVD looked pretty good, says Brian. 787 00:45:08.880 --> 00:45:10.320 Problem is if I take off a string crap to 788 00:45:10.320 --> 00:45:12.599 find out for myself, then I can't return it. Honestly, 789 00:45:12.920 --> 00:45:18.360 I'm keeping both of mine. I completely understand that fully. Matthew. 790 00:45:18.400 --> 00:45:19.800 Part of me says, keep the grain because that's how 791 00:45:19.840 --> 00:45:21.440 it looked on release. Another part of me says, there's 792 00:45:21.480 --> 00:45:23.400 no grain in real life, so if you can make 793 00:45:23.440 --> 00:45:25.719 a movie more lifelike, have at it. That's not how 794 00:45:25.760 --> 00:45:29.079 it was captured at the time. Though the film that 795 00:45:29.320 --> 00:45:34.920 was being used, especially before gosh, like nineteen ninety one ish, 796 00:45:35.760 --> 00:45:38.440 it was inherently more grainy. We'd not gone so far 797 00:45:38.519 --> 00:45:42.599 into the cell technology that it was not super grain free. 798 00:45:42.639 --> 00:45:44.440 I mean, if you look at even movie shot on 799 00:45:44.519 --> 00:45:47.079 film in twenty twenty five are a lot less greeny 800 00:45:47.159 --> 00:45:50.320 than something shot on film in nineteen eighty five. The 801 00:45:50.480 --> 00:45:52.880 cost of the materials, the quality of the materials, all 802 00:45:52.960 --> 00:45:54.639 of that changes it entirely. 803 00:45:55.199 --> 00:46:00.960 Also, I'm a big believer that film should look the 804 00:46:01.079 --> 00:46:04.519 furthest from real life as possible. Yeah, you know, I 805 00:46:05.239 --> 00:46:08.320 think that's a major problem with like a lot of 806 00:46:08.400 --> 00:46:12.000 modern movies now. People say, you know, they're always moaning 807 00:46:12.039 --> 00:46:15.360 about lighting in the way like things are set and 808 00:46:15.800 --> 00:46:18.880 blah blah blah blah. But I think it's this addiction 809 00:46:19.800 --> 00:46:25.119 that companies have with making things look real, having the 810 00:46:25.239 --> 00:46:29.599 lighting look realistic. Who gives a fuck. I have never 811 00:46:29.719 --> 00:46:31.880 watched it, you know, like say in our Gentle movie 812 00:46:32.840 --> 00:46:35.800 and complained that it's you know, that the red lighting 813 00:46:35.880 --> 00:46:39.519 is not realistic enough because it's art. It's not meant 814 00:46:39.599 --> 00:46:44.119 to be what we have. If all movies are just 815 00:46:44.360 --> 00:46:47.559 real life, then there's no point in watching them. You 816 00:46:47.639 --> 00:46:50.639 might as well just live. Yeah, you know, I watch 817 00:46:50.840 --> 00:46:53.719 art to see the world in a different lens than 818 00:46:53.760 --> 00:46:54.519 what I see it in. 819 00:46:56.079 --> 00:46:59.400 I get that folly And yeah, just like pauls as 820 00:46:59.400 --> 00:47:02.559 too smooth as never a good look. Craig says film 821 00:47:02.599 --> 00:47:05.159 stocks are chosen specifically for the amount of grain they have. 822 00:47:05.360 --> 00:47:07.559 Grain levels often part of the artistic choice of the 823 00:47:07.599 --> 00:47:11.679 director and cinematographer. Absolutely, and then he also says some 824 00:47:11.880 --> 00:47:14.320 HGR releases pushed the grain and noise well beyond what 825 00:47:14.400 --> 00:47:16.239 they would have looked like. I agree that can be 826 00:47:16.280 --> 00:47:23.400 an issue. Yeah, something to keep in mind for sure, Gary, great, 827 00:47:23.519 --> 00:47:25.400 great way to say this. Grain is the mechanism that 828 00:47:25.480 --> 00:47:27.719 delivers the detail and film. You can't just scrub grain 829 00:47:27.760 --> 00:47:30.639 then slap on a sharpening filter. Fucking topaz. 830 00:47:31.119 --> 00:47:31.920 Apparently you can. 831 00:47:32.159 --> 00:47:39.519 So just like that next crag. Thanks for while you're insight, 832 00:47:39.599 --> 00:47:41.199 but that's over, Krit says, you can. 833 00:47:41.400 --> 00:47:45.039 So apparently you can. I'm not an expert in the fields, 834 00:47:45.079 --> 00:47:46.360 but they're doing it. 835 00:47:47.519 --> 00:47:50.000 On that note, I think it's I think it's time 836 00:47:50.079 --> 00:47:50.599 to get to it. 837 00:47:50.679 --> 00:47:50.760 An. 838 00:47:52.519 --> 00:47:54.199 That was so dismissive and I loved it. 839 00:47:57.079 --> 00:48:00.320 It was a good point, Gary, bad it was, Ryan. 840 00:48:00.280 --> 00:48:02.360 Says to Craig's point, stocks are also chosen by budget. 841 00:48:02.400 --> 00:48:05.920 Slower stock needs more light means bigger budget abs. Absolutely. 842 00:48:06.400 --> 00:48:09.320 All right, let's get started with the UK. Since Krit 843 00:48:09.519 --> 00:48:13.159 is here November seventeenth, there is a four K coming 844 00:48:13.199 --> 00:48:17.559 from Second Site of Pearl and of Maxine. We're gonna 845 00:48:17.639 --> 00:48:19.719 be talking about both of those. But I gotta admit 846 00:48:19.880 --> 00:48:22.320 it's getting to be kind of a running joke that 847 00:48:22.360 --> 00:48:25.159 I will say I've got a feeling that something's coming, 848 00:48:25.280 --> 00:48:27.599 and then the next week he gets announced. Literally last 849 00:48:27.639 --> 00:48:30.000 week on the show, I said, man, I have a 850 00:48:30.079 --> 00:48:32.119 feeling Second Site is going to be doing a trilogy 851 00:48:32.159 --> 00:48:34.159 of all these and then they only announced two out 852 00:48:34.159 --> 00:48:36.320 of three. But hey, I was two thirds, right, What 853 00:48:37.000 --> 00:48:39.840 do we know why they're not doing X? Somebody else 854 00:48:39.880 --> 00:48:41.639 already has the rights to X and they are holding 855 00:48:41.679 --> 00:48:43.480 it hostage from them in the UK. 856 00:48:44.199 --> 00:48:47.519 Stinker, I'll be picking up the PAL, I will not 857 00:48:47.599 --> 00:48:51.119 be picking up Maxine, and then if they eventually get 858 00:48:51.239 --> 00:48:53.519 to X, then I'll be picking that up as well. 859 00:48:54.199 --> 00:48:57.480 Yep. So the extras here, you'll notice they are quite 860 00:48:57.599 --> 00:49:00.239 different than the A twenty four extras because they are 861 00:49:00.440 --> 00:49:04.280 actually fairly robust here compared to A twenty four's not 862 00:49:04.719 --> 00:49:11.119 super long listed. So for Pearl, we got HDR with 863 00:49:11.159 --> 00:49:14.360 Dolby Vision Adolby Atmos, New commentary with Alexander Heller Nicholas, 864 00:49:14.400 --> 00:49:17.000 New interview with Ty West, New interview with Tandy Wright. 865 00:49:17.119 --> 00:49:19.559 New interview with the DP Elliot Rocket, new interview with 866 00:49:19.599 --> 00:49:22.559 the production designer Tom Hammock, a new visual essay by 867 00:49:22.639 --> 00:49:24.920 Joe Wallace. There is a piece called Coming Out of 868 00:49:25.000 --> 00:49:27.440 Rachelle and Time after Time. Those are also on some 869 00:49:27.559 --> 00:49:29.960 other releases. We've also got one hundred and twenty page 870 00:49:29.960 --> 00:49:33.280 book with new essays by gent Adams, Joel Harley, mo Mooshati, 871 00:49:33.480 --> 00:49:38.239 Tory Petenza, Vana Taylor, and Nadan Whitney. Plus the very 872 00:49:38.559 --> 00:49:42.800 stereotypical second site list of six collectors art cards, because 873 00:49:42.840 --> 00:49:44.480 they do that for every release to make it look 874 00:49:44.559 --> 00:49:48.000 like it's loaded with extras. Yeah, this is a solid release. 875 00:49:48.280 --> 00:49:50.360 I loved Pearl. I think this is my favorite of 876 00:49:50.400 --> 00:49:54.320 the three. Still good movie, good art. I think this 877 00:49:54.440 --> 00:49:54.880 looks good. 878 00:49:56.159 --> 00:49:58.360 Yeah, five looks really nice. I'll be picking it up. 879 00:50:00.239 --> 00:50:03.239 Of love for Pearl in the comments. Love seeing that 880 00:50:05.679 --> 00:50:07.800 Maxine is the second one from them, also coming on 881 00:50:07.880 --> 00:50:11.960 November seventeenth on four K. This is my least favorite 882 00:50:12.039 --> 00:50:14.920 of the three. I don't hate this one, but it's 883 00:50:15.119 --> 00:50:16.960 I feel like it's a big quality drop off from 884 00:50:16.960 --> 00:50:19.920 the other two. The art for this one, I feel 885 00:50:19.920 --> 00:50:23.320 like is off compared to Pearl. It just doesn't quite 886 00:50:23.519 --> 00:50:25.000 feel right on the box week. 887 00:50:25.719 --> 00:50:27.840 Yeah, I don't know why it's so read either. The 888 00:50:27.960 --> 00:50:29.199 movie's not very red, is it. 889 00:50:29.480 --> 00:50:32.000 No, it could have been like a purple or pink 890 00:50:32.039 --> 00:50:32.639 and it would have been. 891 00:50:32.679 --> 00:50:34.679 Yeah, a little bit.

Yeah. I mean, even if the booklet 908 00:51:28.920 --> 00:51:31.199 cover was the cover of the box, I think it 909 00:51:31.199 --> 00:51:32.280 would have been a little bit better. 910 00:51:32.719 --> 00:51:35.880 Yeah, agreed, let's see. 911 00:51:35.960 --> 00:51:37.960 Steffino says, I'm sure alone, but I thought this one 912 00:51:38.039 --> 00:51:41.280 was better than this one was better than Triple X. 913 00:51:41.519 --> 00:51:43.079 Or are you saying than X is better than the 914 00:51:43.159 --> 00:51:44.039 Vin Diesel movie? 915 00:51:44.280 --> 00:51:48.920 I think not. Yeah, I love X is almost as 916 00:51:48.960 --> 00:51:50.280 good as Pearl in my opinion. 917 00:51:51.320 --> 00:51:54.199 Yeah, I have X and Pilot like that the same level. 918 00:51:54.360 --> 00:51:55.440 They're both really good. 919 00:51:56.519 --> 00:51:58.719 Nice. Josh talked with Bill about the commentary a few 920 00:51:58.760 --> 00:52:01.480 months ago. Any guesses on the label for the licensing 921 00:52:01.559 --> 00:52:04.119 for X, it is, we already know it. It's entertainment 922 00:52:04.159 --> 00:52:06.199 and Video and they've only released it on Blu Ray 923 00:52:06.280 --> 00:52:10.119 and that's the best you're getting, So good luck. It's 924 00:52:10.199 --> 00:52:12.159 not even a good label. It's not a good release. 925 00:52:13.039 --> 00:52:18.079 It's tripe. So yeah, that's it for Second Sight, and 926 00:52:18.559 --> 00:52:20.760 I will be the one before all the comments start 927 00:52:20.840 --> 00:52:24.119 saying it. Where's Possession? I have that question too. I 928 00:52:24.320 --> 00:52:27.239 have a feeling we will get that announced in not 929 00:52:27.679 --> 00:52:29.480 tomorrow but next Friday. 930 00:52:29.880 --> 00:52:32.239 Mother fuck it. I get to miss the Possession one. 931 00:52:32.559 --> 00:52:37.960 Great, Yes, yes you do.

I hate that text, but other than that, 951 00:53:37.599 --> 00:53:39.199 I don't have an opinion on this. 952 00:53:39.960 --> 00:53:40.840 The font itself. 953 00:53:41.480 --> 00:53:45.000 Yeah, I don't like it at all. It looks like 954 00:53:45.159 --> 00:53:47.559 you know, do you remember I don't even know what 955 00:53:47.679 --> 00:53:49.719 it was on, maybe like Microsoft Paint or whatever, but 956 00:53:49.920 --> 00:53:53.960 like those really old like word graphics. Yeah, yeah, it's 957 00:53:54.039 --> 00:53:55.679 like one of those. I don't like that, it's all. 958 00:53:56.639 --> 00:53:59.119 Maybe it's like just because it's like the digital like 959 00:54:00.480 --> 00:54:03.800 copy of it though obviously because it's like a format 960 00:54:03.880 --> 00:54:05.559 that they've just like put the cover on or whatever. 961 00:54:06.679 --> 00:54:08.599 I assume it looks better when you actually. 962 00:54:08.360 --> 00:54:13.679 Have it, like on Always the release, Yeah Always. Next 963 00:54:13.800 --> 00:54:19.519 up is Doozy.

I believe 978 00:55:10.599 --> 00:55:14.719 we've got at least one for the second one. Yeah, 979 00:55:15.039 --> 00:55:16.960 a full twenty seven by forty for the second one. 980 00:55:17.280 --> 00:55:20.760 A reproduction of the full press kit eight replica lobby 981 00:55:20.840 --> 00:55:23.920 cards with original production stills. A reprint of issue number 982 00:55:23.960 --> 00:55:26.800 one of the Silent Night, Deadly Night comic adaptation. A 983 00:55:26.960 --> 00:55:30.000 three D lenticular hard case to hold all four discs. 984 00:55:30.480 --> 00:55:32.840 And this is only gonna be pressed once, of course. 985 00:55:33.760 --> 00:55:38.679 And let's see extras on this are all extras that 986 00:55:38.719 --> 00:55:42.719 you've seen before, nothing new whatsoever. Disc one and this 987 00:55:42.880 --> 00:55:44.880 is the theatrical cut of Silent Night, Deadly Night on 988 00:55:45.000 --> 00:55:48.440 four K. Disc two is the theatrical cut of Silent Night, 989 00:55:48.480 --> 00:55:51.559 Deadly Night on Blu Ray. Disc three is Silent Night, 990 00:55:51.639 --> 00:55:54.599 Deadly Knight unrated cut on Blu Ray. And so that's 991 00:55:54.599 --> 00:55:56.239 the only way you're getting the unrated cut, not on 992 00:55:56.320 --> 00:55:59.480 four K. And then Disc four is Silent Night, Deadly 993 00:55:59.559 --> 00:56:02.679 Night Part two theatrical cuts. And then there will also 994 00:56:02.800 --> 00:56:07.159 be a VHS of the first film. H dear god, 995 00:56:07.840 --> 00:56:08.320 that's a lot. 996 00:56:12.559 --> 00:56:14.159 I don't know what the fuck you want me to 997 00:56:14.239 --> 00:56:15.440 say about this is stupid. 998 00:56:15.880 --> 00:56:18.280 Anything about a full kilo and a half release of Silent. 999 00:56:18.119 --> 00:56:30.519 Good Night, it's it's it's it's less than necessary. I think, yeah, 1000 00:56:30.599 --> 00:56:34.679 I think we could. We could do more than missing 1001 00:56:34.760 --> 00:56:38.920 a DVD, for sure, need to add a DVD. I 1002 00:56:39.039 --> 00:56:41.639 think full Posters is awkward. We might as well make 1003 00:56:41.679 --> 00:56:42.039 it five. 1004 00:56:43.920 --> 00:56:45.920 Well, it's three from one movie and one of the 1005 00:56:46.000 --> 00:56:47.559 second movie. That's even more awkward. 1006 00:56:47.800 --> 00:56:49.840 Yeah, that's that's right. I say we got three for 1007 00:56:49.920 --> 00:56:52.760 the first, two for the second. Uh. 1008 00:56:52.920 --> 00:56:57.119 And this is a quite pricey release for those of 1009 00:56:57.199 --> 00:57:01.599 you in the US, which is very different currency than 1010 00:57:01.719 --> 00:57:06.320 the Australian dollar right now, because Australian is quite more 1011 00:57:06.440 --> 00:57:09.639 inflated than the US release. But you can pre order 1012 00:57:09.719 --> 00:57:12.400 this right now from the US retailers that already have 1013 00:57:12.519 --> 00:57:16.440 this up for one hundred and fifty three US dollars. 1014 00:57:18.679 --> 00:57:21.159 Not worth how many fake dollars? 1015 00:57:21.280 --> 00:57:21.440 Is that? 1016 00:57:22.039 --> 00:57:23.440 Dingo dollars? How much is that? 1017 00:57:23.679 --> 00:57:25.800 I think it's like three hundred dingo dollars. 1018 00:57:26.400 --> 00:57:30.679 Jesus, Yeah, that currency is not real. What do you 1019 00:57:30.760 --> 00:57:33.239 mean three hundred What kind of conversion is that? 1020 00:57:35.719 --> 00:57:37.960 It just clicked? What we both just said? Oh sorry, 1021 00:57:38.079 --> 00:57:42.400 it's two hundred and twenty dingo dollars and what they 1022 00:57:42.440 --> 00:57:43.599 call it dingo dollar use. 1023 00:57:44.880 --> 00:57:46.360 I don't know. The whole place is made up. 1024 00:57:48.920 --> 00:57:52.760 Yeah, they should have done with Snow what they did 1025 00:57:52.880 --> 00:57:56.159 for Dune. That would have been a good release, says Gary. 1026 00:57:57.280 --> 00:57:59.480 That would have been interesting. It wouldn't have been two 1027 00:57:59.519 --> 00:58:02.039 hundred and twenty Australian interesting, but it would have been interesting. 1028 00:58:03.159 --> 00:58:05.679 All right, let's carry on before we all die of shock. 1029 00:58:07.199 --> 00:58:09.880 This is such a funny way to word this. Radiance 1030 00:58:09.920 --> 00:58:12.119 over in the UK has an answered replacement program for 1031 00:58:12.199 --> 00:58:17.239 the Betrayal with this ominous looking bright red the Betrayal 1032 00:58:17.400 --> 00:58:22.039 disc replacement program message. You can find out what is 1033 00:58:22.079 --> 00:58:24.159 going on by reading this message, or I can tell 1034 00:58:24.199 --> 00:58:26.400 you right now. They found out their audio commentary just 1035 00:58:26.440 --> 00:58:28.280 starts at the wrong point on the disc, and they're 1036 00:58:28.280 --> 00:58:31.559 willing to give everybody a brand new disc because of it. 1037 00:58:32.440 --> 00:58:34.519 They have stopped shipping the title so that they can 1038 00:58:34.599 --> 00:58:37.800 replace it. If you ordered it elsewhere, you can email 1039 00:58:37.880 --> 00:58:40.800 info at Radiancefilms dot co dot uk and they will 1040 00:58:40.840 --> 00:58:43.599 send you out a brand new disc right. 1041 00:58:43.719 --> 00:58:45.960 I didn't know this was for a movie call The Betrayal, 1042 00:58:46.079 --> 00:58:48.079 so I felt like they was just announcing this as 1043 00:58:48.119 --> 00:58:51.960 a betrayal like program, like they betrayed the audience in 1044 00:58:52.079 --> 00:58:56.920 some kind of way. That's quite I guess they did. Yeah, 1045 00:58:56.960 --> 00:58:58.599 that's call of them. I guess it's nice. 1046 00:58:59.280 --> 00:59:04.480 Yes, here we go. Def Crocodile announced they're full details 1047 00:59:04.559 --> 00:59:06.719 of the October slate. Finally, this is stuff that we've 1048 00:59:06.719 --> 00:59:09.480 been hyping up for quite some time, and I'm so 1049 00:59:09.599 --> 00:59:11.800 stoked to be able to see both of these. These 1050 00:59:11.800 --> 00:59:13.880 are both shipping near the end of October, and the 1051 00:59:14.000 --> 00:59:17.159 first is a double feature of Al Rane and The 1052 00:59:17.400 --> 00:59:20.760 Student of Prague. These are from nineteen twenty seven and 1053 00:59:20.920 --> 00:59:25.400 nineteen twenty six, and they are silent films, obviously based 1054 00:59:25.400 --> 00:59:31.519 on when they were released. They are both by what 1055 00:59:31.760 --> 00:59:35.599 is the guy's name? I can't remember at the momentum, 1056 00:59:37.800 --> 00:59:39.519 I don't remember, and it's not listed there because I 1057 00:59:39.559 --> 00:59:41.760 couldn't fit everything because there's so many extras on this. Craig, 1058 00:59:41.800 --> 00:59:44.440 I know you love to hear that Conrad Vite Is 1059 00:59:44.480 --> 00:59:47.800 that his name? Nope, that's the star. I have completely 1060 00:59:47.840 --> 00:59:53.599 failed you. I'm sorry this is a crazy looking release. Though. Yeah, 1061 00:59:53.719 --> 00:59:57.800 that's beautiful single case with two discs, says Craig. And yes, 1062 00:59:58.000 --> 01:00:03.400 incredible artwork by Dave McKean. On here, We've got two films. 1063 01:00:03.440 --> 01:00:05.280 The first one is one hundred and thirty one minutes. 1064 01:00:05.320 --> 01:00:07.880 The second one is one hundred and thirty three. See. 1065 01:00:08.039 --> 01:00:10.280 I read that title and I see it there, and 1066 01:00:10.360 --> 01:00:11.639 I didn't think that was his name, but it is. 1067 01:00:11.880 --> 01:00:16.800 Henrique Galen is the director of both of these extras. 1068 01:00:16.840 --> 01:00:19.400 We got a new video interview with Stefan Drousler of 1069 01:00:19.480 --> 01:00:21.800 the Film Museum Munchin about the preservation of al Rne 1070 01:00:21.880 --> 01:00:24.360 and the Student of Prague that was moderated by Dennis. 1071 01:00:24.840 --> 01:00:27.760 We got a new audio commentary by Jan Christopher Horak, 1072 01:00:27.800 --> 01:00:30.159 the former director of the UCLA Film and TV Archive 1073 01:00:30.199 --> 01:00:34.039 in the Film Museum Munchin. We've got a new audio 1074 01:00:34.519 --> 01:00:38.320 commentary on the second title or no, he does both 1075 01:00:38.360 --> 01:00:40.920 of those, that's right. Then We've got new artwork by 1076 01:00:40.960 --> 01:00:44.000 Beth Morris on the standards of course, like she always does, 1077 01:00:44.519 --> 01:00:47.519 and then Fidelity Emotion as usual did the authoring. We 1078 01:00:47.599 --> 01:00:51.239 got a new eighty page book with newly translated essays 1079 01:00:51.280 --> 01:00:57.000 by Hans Heinz Ewers, Henrik Galen, and Felix Panton Reprinted 1080 01:00:57.119 --> 01:00:59.880 essays from nineteen twenty eight, nineteen twenty nine, and nineteen 1081 01:01:00.039 --> 01:01:02.800 ninety three. New essay by Stefan Drousler, new essay by 1082 01:01:02.840 --> 01:01:07.119 Walt Chah, new essay by Stephen Bassett. Just absolutely ridiculous. 1083 01:01:07.400 --> 01:01:12.480 This is incredible reservoir. Fellow wants to know. Has Deaf 1084 01:01:12.519 --> 01:01:15.480 Crocodile ever released an American movie? Yes, actually quite a few, 1085 01:01:15.639 --> 01:01:19.960 especially the most famous ones is Bill Plimpton. Their Bill 1086 01:01:20.000 --> 01:01:21.760 Plimpton stuff is quite nice. 1087 01:01:22.039 --> 01:01:25.760 He also did Fast and Furious right, only part three? Right, 1088 01:01:26.440 --> 01:01:27.039 it's the best one. 1089 01:01:27.519 --> 01:01:31.599 Fine, not US though, I mean it's US production, but 1090 01:01:31.760 --> 01:01:37.119 was filmed in Tokyo of course. Yeah, Oh, Solomon King, 1091 01:01:37.199 --> 01:01:40.400 that's the other one. That's right. I'm still laughing at 1092 01:01:40.440 --> 01:01:41.079 Tokyo Drip. 1093 01:01:42.239 --> 01:01:44.639 If Deaf Crocodile put on Togyo Drift, I'll buy every 1094 01:01:44.679 --> 01:01:45.920 copy you have. My word. 1095 01:01:47.280 --> 01:01:49.519 You heard it here, Craig, you gotta print ten thousand, 1096 01:01:49.559 --> 01:01:50.079 make him pay. 1097 01:01:52.239 --> 01:01:53.760 I'll do an audio commentary for it. 1098 01:01:57.599 --> 01:02:04.960 He's just gonna he's gonna do Foley work. This guy's 1099 01:02:05.000 --> 01:02:10.559 going all right. So that's the first release. The second 1100 01:02:10.599 --> 01:02:15.559 one is right, here. This is Norbert Foffenviickler's two five 1101 01:02:15.719 --> 01:02:18.639 five one trilogy. These are from twenty twenty one, twenty 1102 01:02:18.719 --> 01:02:23.719 twenty three, and twenty twenty five, and these are wild. 1103 01:02:24.480 --> 01:02:27.920 This paragraph here is probably the best way to write 1104 01:02:27.960 --> 01:02:31.559 this out, and so I normally probably wouldn't read this 1105 01:02:31.800 --> 01:02:34.519 entire thing, but it's kind of necessary because I think 1106 01:02:34.599 --> 01:02:37.119 Dennis wrote this, and he is a mad genius for 1107 01:02:37.199 --> 01:02:39.280 some of this copy and a lot of it he's 1108 01:02:39.280 --> 01:02:42.400 got like memorized. But he says, imagine mad muck, Mad 1109 01:02:42.480 --> 01:02:46.079 Max run amuck in the Moodor Museum, a nightmarish, subterranean 1110 01:02:46.119 --> 01:02:49.920 world of superstition, magic and deformity, ruled by fear and oppression, 1111 01:02:50.039 --> 01:02:53.159 and peopled with a spine chilling assortment of mutants and 1112 01:02:53.360 --> 01:02:58.760 masked monstrosities, including faceless stormtroopers, parasites, nude figures, taxidermied monkeys, 1113 01:02:58.800 --> 01:03:02.679 alchemist and other horrors. Welcome to the Welcome to the 1114 01:03:02.840 --> 01:03:06.599 Unearthly Visions of Austrian artist and director Norbert Foffenbickler's two 1115 01:03:06.679 --> 01:03:09.880 five to five one trilogy, a staggering combination of avant 1116 01:03:09.960 --> 01:03:14.480 garde cinema, post apocalyptic sci fi, horror, monster action, dystopian, 1117 01:03:14.519 --> 01:03:18.079 political nightmare, silent cinema techniques. All three of these movies 1118 01:03:18.119 --> 01:03:21.800 are told with that dialogue with very different color tinting, endless, 1119 01:03:21.840 --> 01:03:27.239 subterranean Labyrinth, Shot and Abandoned, World War Two Bunkers and Vienna, Myriad, Grotesque, mask, 1120 01:03:27.400 --> 01:03:30.559 industrial and death metal music, The Brothers Qui Sorry, The 1121 01:03:30.599 --> 01:03:34.559 Brothers Quai and Jans Fanckmeyer and Joel Peter Vitken and 1122 01:03:34.679 --> 01:03:37.159 David Lynch all mixed together. Definitely not for the faint 1123 01:03:37.199 --> 01:03:39.880 of heart. This is experimental filmmaking for fans of Silent Hill, 1124 01:03:40.119 --> 01:03:44.280 Hellboy to Eraserhead, Mad God and Bigotten, The Cure and 1125 01:03:44.440 --> 01:03:49.800 Bauhaus and Metallica, Luca Libre and unbelievably Charlie Chaplin. In 1126 01:03:49.920 --> 01:03:52.639 other words, it's like nothing you've ever seen or dreamt 1127 01:03:52.679 --> 01:03:53.320 of before. 1128 01:03:54.599 --> 01:03:59.000 Sounds like a Nights in Florida. This sounds great. Never 1129 01:03:59.079 --> 01:04:01.440 had of any of this shit, but it actually sounds 1130 01:04:01.599 --> 01:04:02.559 really fucking sick. 1131 01:04:04.000 --> 01:04:05.960 Gary is saying nothing to matters much, but does actually 1132 01:04:05.960 --> 01:04:07.320 have a narrative or is it just a bunch of 1133 01:04:07.400 --> 01:04:09.639 weird stuff? It genuinely does have a narrative. 1134 01:04:09.679 --> 01:04:11.880 Actually, is I like that? Less? 1135 01:04:13.119 --> 01:04:16.760 Well? It is a narrative told through very experimental filmmaking. 1136 01:04:18.159 --> 01:04:22.440 Very good, very good. The art on this is remarkable. 1137 01:04:22.559 --> 01:04:26.039 As usual, def Crocodile always has some of the best art. 1138 01:04:26.320 --> 01:04:29.480 Here is the standard art on this one. Now for 1139 01:04:29.719 --> 01:04:32.440 the extras on this, this is a four disc set 1140 01:04:32.599 --> 01:04:36.280 for three films. They had to like really start to 1141 01:04:36.320 --> 01:04:38.760 take a look at what they could even accept for 1142 01:04:38.920 --> 01:04:42.039 this release because the discs were getting so damn full. 1143 01:04:43.280 --> 01:04:47.239 This is a wonderful, wonderful release. And if you're even 1144 01:04:47.880 --> 01:04:51.639 remotely skeptical, that's not a word skeptical about buying this. 1145 01:04:52.119 --> 01:04:54.039 I would watch the trailer that they released for this 1146 01:04:54.159 --> 01:04:57.119 because it is quite good. So on this we've got 1147 01:04:57.239 --> 01:05:00.400 seven experimental short films by the director. We've got four 1148 01:05:00.519 --> 01:05:05.400 new video interviews. We've got uh, let's see new interview 1149 01:05:05.480 --> 01:05:08.519 with Foffen Bickler discussing his avant garde films. We've got 1150 01:05:08.559 --> 01:05:10.880 a new visual essay by me and doctor Will Dotson 1151 01:05:11.119 --> 01:05:14.440 on the first film two five one point zero. It's 1152 01:05:14.840 --> 01:05:16.960 it's it's really fun. We talk about the Charlie Chaplin 1153 01:05:17.360 --> 01:05:21.599 influences quite a bit. There is a visual essay by 1154 01:05:21.639 --> 01:05:24.800 Stephen Brumer, who is the experimental filmmaker out of Canada 1155 01:05:24.880 --> 01:05:27.920 that works on Black Zero, the Experimental Film label. He's 1156 01:05:28.079 --> 01:05:30.360 like the voice to talk about these films, so I'm 1157 01:05:30.400 --> 01:05:33.719 so glad that he's involved in this. We've got new 1158 01:05:33.760 --> 01:05:39.400 commentaries by Sheila Rowan legg by e Eva litt or 1159 01:05:39.519 --> 01:05:42.280 No I Believe and Golden, and then Mike White from 1160 01:05:42.280 --> 01:05:45.679 the Projection Booth podcast. There's a featurette on Jam of 1161 01:05:45.679 --> 01:05:47.400 the Dan behind the scenes of two five five to 1162 01:05:47.440 --> 01:05:52.679 one point zero three. There's some bts like visual effects reels. 1163 01:05:52.719 --> 01:05:57.039 There's deleted scenes, soundtrack scores, three new trailers, all kinds 1164 01:05:57.039 --> 01:05:59.599 of stuff. I probably even missed one putting it on here. 1165 01:06:00.000 --> 01:06:03.440 And in fact, I think there's another visual essay from 1166 01:06:05.119 --> 01:06:08.440 another filmmaker that I don't see listed. So yeah, I 1167 01:06:08.519 --> 01:06:11.639 probably just did not have enough space and I skipped it. Sorry, Craig, 1168 01:06:13.000 --> 01:06:15.400 let's see Dingo Boy says two five to five one 1169 01:06:15.480 --> 01:06:18.880 trilogy is not a rom com. Well, I mean, in 1170 01:06:18.960 --> 01:06:25.360 a couple scenes it gets never mind, I've said too much. Yeah, 1171 01:06:25.719 --> 01:06:28.719 this is a crazy month for deaf Crocodile highly recommend 1172 01:06:28.840 --> 01:06:31.760 checking both of these out. The big thing Craig is 1173 01:06:31.920 --> 01:06:35.639 reminding me to bring up that the painting the original 1174 01:06:35.719 --> 01:06:38.360 painting for this box art is going to be on 1175 01:06:38.599 --> 01:06:42.960 sale on the de Crocodile website next Friday. It is 1176 01:06:43.880 --> 01:06:48.440 it's pricey because JG. Jones is an acclaimed comic book artist, 1177 01:06:49.719 --> 01:06:53.400 but he usually charges five thousand plus dollars for the 1178 01:06:53.480 --> 01:06:57.199 painting and it's a pretty big painting too. He's he's 1179 01:06:57.320 --> 01:07:00.480 charging about half price, so this will be two five, 1180 01:07:00.599 --> 01:07:04.599 five to one dollars on the Deaf Crocodile website. Nice 1181 01:07:04.599 --> 01:07:06.360 little tongue in cheek total there, and I love it. 1182 01:07:06.920 --> 01:07:09.719 We're gonna be talking about that next week because it'll 1183 01:07:09.760 --> 01:07:12.039 go up on sale. But if you're super into original 1184 01:07:12.159 --> 01:07:14.440 art and you love this stuff, this will be on 1185 01:07:14.559 --> 01:07:17.639 the Deaf Crocodile website to purchase next Friday for one 1186 01:07:17.719 --> 01:07:22.639 lucky individual. It's it's the original painting itself, signed by JG. Jones. 1187 01:07:22.679 --> 01:07:23.280 And that's audio. 1188 01:07:24.280 --> 01:07:24.480 Yeah. 1189 01:07:25.440 --> 01:07:27.559 Have you have you checked anything out from Death Crocodile? 1190 01:07:27.800 --> 01:07:28.480 Probably not yet. 1191 01:07:29.320 --> 01:07:32.960 Nope. I didn't mean for that to sound so dismissive. 1192 01:07:34.400 --> 01:07:36.920 It's just usually they put out stuff I've never even 1193 01:07:36.960 --> 01:07:39.639 heard of, and you're in the UK. It's it's I'm 1194 01:07:39.679 --> 01:07:44.039 in the UK, which is, yeah, a bigger problem but 1195 01:07:44.679 --> 01:07:47.119 this is probably the thing that they've put out that 1196 01:07:47.360 --> 01:07:51.960 I'm the most interested in. Also, there was like something 1197 01:07:52.000 --> 01:07:54.840 they put out a while ago and I keep the 1198 01:07:54.880 --> 01:07:56.679 meaning to like circle back to it, and I can't 1199 01:07:56.719 --> 01:07:58.239 remember what it is, but I feel like it was 1200 01:07:58.320 --> 01:07:59.960 like an Irish folk horror. 1201 01:08:00.079 --> 01:08:03.280 Uh, the Outcasts? That's it? 1202 01:08:03.559 --> 01:08:07.039 Yes, it was that, which a beautiful movie too as well. 1203 01:08:07.239 --> 01:08:13.840 Yeah, and we'll talk about that after. I'll tell you 1204 01:08:13.880 --> 01:08:15.840 about The Outcast's. It's a great one and I think 1205 01:08:15.880 --> 01:08:19.600 everybody should see. It's so good. Hey, I mentioned that 1206 01:08:19.640 --> 01:08:21.600 I saw him this weekend. I did not like it, 1207 01:08:22.159 --> 01:08:23.920 But if you're into it, there's a four K steal 1208 01:08:23.960 --> 01:08:26.119 book up that you can pre order now. It'll also 1209 01:08:26.159 --> 01:08:28.079 get a standard four K, a Blu ray, and a DVD. 1210 01:08:28.640 --> 01:08:30.319 Those are all coming from Universal. We don't have a 1211 01:08:30.359 --> 01:08:32.800 release date yet, but here it is. Did this interest 1212 01:08:32.840 --> 01:08:34.319 you at all? Did you see the trailer? Did you 1213 01:08:34.359 --> 01:08:34.640 see it? 1214 01:08:35.720 --> 01:08:41.359 I saw the trailer and I was like, Okay, I 1215 01:08:41.560 --> 01:08:44.399 think this movie is really highlighted that people don't know 1216 01:08:45.039 --> 01:08:47.520 generally the distinction between a producer and a. 1217 01:08:47.600 --> 01:08:51.720 Director, or that the studio itself is trying to con 1218 01:08:51.880 --> 01:08:52.920 people into it though too. 1219 01:08:53.079 --> 01:08:55.119 Yeah, I saw like so many people going like, what 1220 01:08:55.319 --> 01:08:56.359 is Jordan Peele doing? 1221 01:08:56.880 --> 01:08:57.479 Blah blah blah. 1222 01:08:57.560 --> 01:08:59.479 Jordan Peele fell off, And I'm like, Jordan Peele didn't 1223 01:08:59.479 --> 01:09:00.159 make this movie. 1224 01:09:00.680 --> 01:09:03.000 But he is everywhere in the marketing, that's for sure. 1225 01:09:03.279 --> 01:09:06.960 I will say, though, it must suck to be Jordan 1226 01:09:07.079 --> 01:09:10.279 Peel because he wanted to get weapons and he couldn't 1227 01:09:10.279 --> 01:09:12.960 get it, and he ended up getting this instead, which 1228 01:09:13.119 --> 01:09:17.319 might be the worst trade in history for releases. 1229 01:09:17.399 --> 01:09:19.560 It's a pretty bad trade, I gotta be honest. Wow, 1230 01:09:20.880 --> 01:09:24.399 all right, so that is him. Next up over in 1231 01:09:24.439 --> 01:09:28.319 the UK again screen Bound Pictures on November seventeenth, releasing 1232 01:09:28.359 --> 01:09:30.600 a four K of Renaissance from two thousand and six. 1233 01:09:31.439 --> 01:09:34.560 This is a movie that I had somehow never heard of, 1234 01:09:35.319 --> 01:09:40.039 Sharks of quite a bit younger Daniel Craig. Yeah, limit 1235 01:09:40.079 --> 01:09:42.079 did to a thousand copies, got a double sided posters 1236 01:09:42.119 --> 01:09:47.800 and behind the scenes b roll featurette stuff like that.

I 1255 01:10:42.359 --> 01:10:45.119 didn't even know Andrew Lincoln was British until I was 1256 01:10:45.159 --> 01:10:47.680 like seventeen, so that. 1257 01:10:47.760 --> 01:10:48.680 Was like nine months ago. 1258 01:10:50.720 --> 01:10:52.079 I'm an old man now, Ryan. 1259 01:10:53.840 --> 01:10:54.039 Yeah. 1260 01:10:54.119 --> 01:10:56.960 I watched Love actually when I was like seventeen eighteen, 1261 01:10:57.000 --> 01:10:59.279 and I was like, ah, the guy from the Walking 1262 01:10:59.359 --> 01:11:04.880 Dad's English.

Everybody in my generation was like, whoa, 1265 01:11:10.479 --> 01:11:16.399 the guy from Love actually is doing it? Horror, how 1266 01:11:16.560 --> 01:11:21.760 the turntables. Let's keep going, well, go USA on November eleventh, 1267 01:11:21.880 --> 01:11:24.359 is releasing a blu ray of the brand new Scott 1268 01:11:24.439 --> 01:11:27.760 Atkins film, which is supposedly pretty great, called Prisoner of 1269 01:11:27.960 --> 01:11:30.399 War from this year. Are you a Scott Atkins guy. 1270 01:11:31.039 --> 01:11:34.600 I'm not a massive Scott Atkins guy, but what I 1271 01:11:34.760 --> 01:11:38.199 have seen, I have generally liked that just none of 1272 01:11:38.239 --> 01:11:41.279 it has like stood out as like amazing. It's all 1273 01:11:41.399 --> 01:11:43.239 just kind of stood outs as pretty good. 1274 01:11:44.119 --> 01:11:46.760 You don't historically talk a lot about martial arts, so 1275 01:11:47.840 --> 01:11:49.560 that's uh, I was curious about that. 1276 01:11:50.479 --> 01:11:52.439 Actually, I am a big martial arts movie guy. 1277 01:11:52.960 --> 01:11:55.359 Not a ton of the visual essays as well. 1278 01:11:55.399 --> 01:12:00.199 Oh yeah, and because I'm gonna get killed for this. 1279 01:12:00.359 --> 01:12:04.920 But generally there's not a lot of interesting things to say. Yeah, Like, 1280 01:12:05.840 --> 01:12:08.359 you know, I Bruce Lee movies. I love Bruce Lee 1281 01:12:08.439 --> 01:12:11.119 movies and all Jackie Chan movies, Michelle Yo, and I 1282 01:12:11.279 --> 01:12:15.399 love like the whole Woosha sub genre and stuff, But like, 1283 01:12:16.159 --> 01:12:18.119 there's not a lot to say about most of them. 1284 01:12:18.520 --> 01:12:20.960 What you can say about like five minutes of that 1285 01:12:21.119 --> 01:12:25.279 movie can apply to the entire movie. So no, it's 1286 01:12:25.640 --> 01:12:27.600 it's hard to talk about them. But I did talk 1287 01:12:27.640 --> 01:12:31.920 about Enter the Dragon in my top one hundred video, 1288 01:12:32.000 --> 01:12:34.039 which is no longer in my top one hundred anyway, 1289 01:12:34.079 --> 01:12:37.399 but still the way the Dragon is though, So they're 1290 01:12:37.399 --> 01:12:38.600 still a Bruce Lee movie in there. 1291 01:12:39.000 --> 01:12:40.680 Good movies, good movies. Yeah. 1292 01:12:41.319 --> 01:12:41.439 Uh. 1293 01:12:41.960 --> 01:12:44.399 Next, we got a batch of announcements that lit the 1294 01:12:44.520 --> 01:12:45.039 internet on. 1295 01:12:46.880 --> 01:12:51.000 Sorry, it's like so early, I've not figured out the 1296 01:12:51.039 --> 01:12:52.319 filter thing yet, you know. 1297 01:12:52.600 --> 01:12:55.560 It's so funny though, Oh man, you're like somebody in 1298 01:12:55.640 --> 01:13:03.600 Kent without their chips inside joke. That was terrible. Sandpiper 1299 01:13:03.720 --> 01:13:06.760 Pictures putting out re releases of a bunch of stuff 1300 01:13:06.800 --> 01:13:10.000 released by other labels previously with no changes, exact same 1301 01:13:10.079 --> 01:13:13.159 discs with new cover art. I'm glad they're going to 1302 01:13:13.199 --> 01:13:16.560 be in print, but don't get very excited about these releases. 1303 01:13:16.600 --> 01:13:18.600 They're not going to be high quality or anything. 1304 01:13:18.680 --> 01:13:21.560 We don't worry. Don't worry. I'm not jumping out my 1305 01:13:21.680 --> 01:13:23.600 state for Monikin. I'm Blair R. I don't worry. 1306 01:13:24.279 --> 01:13:26.760 But a lot of people are, genuinely, a lot of 1307 01:13:26.760 --> 01:13:28.760 people were very excited about this. To be fair, you 1308 01:13:28.840 --> 01:13:33.039 did just stand up out of your seat. So Mannikin 1309 01:13:33.079 --> 01:13:34.960 for eighty seven is the first one getting a release. 1310 01:13:35.039 --> 01:13:37.119 All of these are coming on December second. By the way, 1311 01:13:38.199 --> 01:13:44.199 next title is Zapped that has not aged nearly as 1312 01:13:44.239 --> 01:13:47.920 well as Scott Bao, which he aged terribly. So yeah, 1313 01:13:47.960 --> 01:13:51.960 that tells you a lot. No, they chose this actively 1314 01:13:52.039 --> 01:13:55.800 to sell it. I guarantee it. Yeah, this is not 1315 01:13:56.239 --> 01:13:59.920 a great movie. Next up Dirty Work. Even though Vinder 1316 01:14:00.119 --> 01:14:03.880 Syndrome put out oh yeah, literal definition of the best 1317 01:14:03.920 --> 01:14:06.239 that you could possibly release for Dirty Work this year, 1318 01:14:06.640 --> 01:14:09.119 they said, you know what, let's release the theatrical cut 1319 01:14:09.199 --> 01:14:10.039 on Blu ray again. 1320 01:14:10.119 --> 01:14:11.039 This is the one I'm getting. 1321 01:14:14.760 --> 01:14:19.760 Oh fun, what is this?

I have not seen 1332 01:15:04.079 --> 01:15:06.159 one of my posts on Facebook pop off like this 1333 01:15:06.239 --> 01:15:08.520 one has popped off in a long time. They are 1334 01:15:08.520 --> 01:15:12.439 putting out Robert Townsend's The meteor Man from nineteen ninety three, 1335 01:15:13.520 --> 01:15:20.000 the highlight quote, question mark quote of the black superhero 1336 01:15:20.119 --> 01:15:24.439 craze of the Kazam and Steel days. You get the 1337 01:15:24.520 --> 01:15:28.319 meteor Man. This is a big deal for some people. 1338 01:15:29.000 --> 01:15:31.199 To be fair, this has been going for over one 1339 01:15:31.279 --> 01:15:33.359 hundred dollars on eBay. To be able to get this 1340 01:15:33.479 --> 01:15:37.600 on Blu Ray for retail price is a real wonderful thing. 1341 01:15:37.640 --> 01:15:40.000 I'm glad this is coming out. I just wish they 1342 01:15:40.039 --> 01:15:45.000 had a better, better release of this coming. Yeah. 1343 01:15:49.680 --> 01:15:51.359 I don't know what is medium on. 1344 01:15:51.880 --> 01:15:59.359 I don't care, all right, I am done with Sampiper. 1345 01:15:59.479 --> 01:16:00.720 These are these are not great? 1346 01:16:01.840 --> 01:16:04.000 Whoa some pipe up. 1347 01:16:05.439 --> 01:16:08.920 Eighty eight Films has delayed surprised their Heart of Dragon 1348 01:16:09.079 --> 01:16:11.800 four K release in the UK from September twenty ninth 1349 01:16:12.000 --> 01:16:14.880 to October twenty seventh, as they usually do. Eighty eight 1350 01:16:14.920 --> 01:16:17.520 Films is rarely on time, but hey, they've been doing 1351 01:16:17.560 --> 01:16:19.640 good stuff this year, so can't really complain too much. 1352 01:16:20.600 --> 01:16:22.800 Yeah. I just picked up Pocasa con complaint. 1353 01:16:23.479 --> 01:16:26.560 True, true, but things we can complain about that are 1354 01:16:26.600 --> 01:16:30.359 happing over in the UK. November tenth, they are releasing, 1355 01:16:30.479 --> 01:16:33.800 not they eighty eight films. They Studio Canal releasing a 1356 01:16:33.920 --> 01:16:36.640 four K A blu ray and DVD release of the 1357 01:16:36.720 --> 01:16:39.399 New Avengers series one and two from nineteen seventy six 1358 01:16:39.439 --> 01:16:42.000 and seventy seven. To be fair, the art on these 1359 01:16:42.079 --> 01:16:44.720 look wonderful because they're done by the amazing Sam Smith. 1360 01:16:45.800 --> 01:16:51.840 But these are obnoxiously overpriced for a four K release 1361 01:16:51.920 --> 01:16:54.560 of this. You can see this, It is ten discs. 1362 01:16:54.600 --> 01:16:56.479 Did you see how much this is going for? I 1363 01:16:56.680 --> 01:16:59.119 did not on the UK. You should go look that 1364 01:16:59.239 --> 01:17:01.119 up right now, krit and tell me if you would 1365 01:17:01.159 --> 01:17:03.880 pay that much at a new event you'r Series one 1366 01:17:03.920 --> 01:17:08.000 and two on four K four K. 1367 01:17:11.319 --> 01:17:15.720 The one hundred and fifty pounds Great British pounds. 1368 01:17:19.600 --> 01:17:24.119 One hundred and fifty GBP is what this is going for. 1369 01:17:25.199 --> 01:17:26.960 That is a lot of money. 1370 01:17:29.079 --> 01:17:37.279 That is not okay. It's just not okay. Not to mention, 1371 01:17:37.439 --> 01:17:39.600 by the way, it's not even comic accurate. Look at it. 1372 01:17:42.359 --> 01:17:48.359 That took me a second. Oh that was pretty funny. Yeah, 1373 01:17:48.520 --> 01:17:51.640 So this is this is a lot, and they do 1374 01:17:51.800 --> 01:17:54.760 have extras on literally everything. I'm glad that these are 1375 01:17:54.800 --> 01:17:58.479 going to be loaded releases, and I think Imprint likely 1376 01:17:58.560 --> 01:18:00.359 will be doing something with this. It will be much 1377 01:18:00.439 --> 01:18:04.079 cheaper because it's Imprint, sadly, but that being said, this 1378 01:18:04.279 --> 01:18:07.640 is very pricey for a set like this, and I 1379 01:18:07.760 --> 01:18:10.840 fear that Studio Canal is gonna lose a lot of 1380 01:18:10.920 --> 01:18:15.359 money on this one. God that's three one hundred and 1381 01:18:15.479 --> 01:18:17.359 six Australian dollar US. 1382 01:18:17.520 --> 01:18:17.720 Yeah. 1383 01:18:17.920 --> 01:18:21.039 Again, it's made up, so it doesn't really count, right, 1384 01:18:22.479 --> 01:18:24.119 They just make up a number for anything. 1385 01:18:24.720 --> 01:18:29.199 Yeah, it's it's a lot. Yeah, this is this is 1386 01:18:29.239 --> 01:18:32.079 a big deal. Studio Canal like this set looks wonderful. 1387 01:18:32.159 --> 01:18:35.760 It doesn't look one hundred and fifty pounds wonderful. No, 1388 01:18:37.720 --> 01:18:41.600 all right, Hey.

But then I can't 1430 01:21:04.479 --> 01:21:06.319 forgot everything that happened after a week. 1431 01:21:08.680 --> 01:21:11.039 I will say I went into this expecting to hate it, 1432 01:21:11.239 --> 01:21:14.000 and I was pleasantly surprised. Like, if you look at it, 1433 01:21:14.359 --> 01:21:17.359 I've been calling it a camp soap opera film. On 1434 01:21:17.520 --> 01:21:21.079 that level, it is quite enjoyable. It's full of drama, 1435 01:21:21.800 --> 01:21:26.319 it's full of Anidoramus screaming, it's full of melodramatic acting. 1436 01:21:26.760 --> 01:21:30.399 It's not a bad story and it's inspired by a 1437 01:21:30.640 --> 01:21:33.359 shockingly true story. If you get out like me and 1438 01:21:33.439 --> 01:21:35.920 you're like, oh, I want to find out what actually happened, 1439 01:21:35.960 --> 01:21:38.039 and you go, oh no, they pretty much just told 1440 01:21:38.079 --> 01:21:41.079 the actual story. Oh my god, I'm horrified. Yeah, it's 1441 01:21:41.159 --> 01:21:42.960 a pretty crazy one. Yeah. 1442 01:21:43.039 --> 01:21:45.840 I wanted to see how accurate it was, so I 1443 01:21:45.960 --> 01:21:48.520 was like, oh, is there like a YouTube video about this? 1444 01:21:48.680 --> 01:21:50.000 And the only one I could find is like two 1445 01:21:50.039 --> 01:21:51.640 and a half hours. So I was like, I don't 1446 01:21:51.640 --> 01:21:56.079 care enough. The movie's fun enough. I guess it was 1447 01:21:56.079 --> 01:21:58.520 almost too and FLF Yeah, I'll take its word for it. 1448 01:22:01.119 --> 01:22:04.800 Speaking of Sydney Sweeney and the Eden, December first, the 1449 01:22:05.479 --> 01:22:08.159 UK is getting a Blu ray of the Sweeney series 1450 01:22:08.239 --> 01:22:15.760 three Yeah, nineteen seventy six, shocking, quite immaculate looking reference 1451 01:22:15.800 --> 01:22:19.680 to her filmography.

There's an audio commentary by Scooby 1470 01:23:20.640 --> 01:23:22.279 historian Matt Dugan. 1471 01:23:23.000 --> 01:23:26.600 He sounds like a Scooby Doo historian, doesn't he. 1472 01:23:27.600 --> 01:23:31.920 Matt Dougan. Twelve page collectible booklet with the images and 1473 01:23:32.079 --> 01:23:35.560 essay written by Matt Dugan, of course, And it's got 1474 01:23:35.600 --> 01:23:39.800 this limited packaging.

It's amazing. Traumatize your kids with it. 1485 01:24:12.680 --> 01:24:13.279 It's very good. 1486 01:24:13.520 --> 01:24:16.640 I get I will pay more to not have this sequel. 1487 01:24:17.119 --> 01:24:20.279 I got that exact comment, I think ninety one times. Yeah. 1488 01:24:21.960 --> 01:24:24.079 Uh man. There's a lot of UK stuff tonight for you. 1489 01:24:24.840 --> 01:24:28.319 November tenth, there is a blu ray from Kaleidoscope Entertainment 1490 01:24:28.359 --> 01:24:31.119 in the UK coming of Irvine Welsh. Reality is not 1491 01:24:31.279 --> 01:24:33.760 enough from twenty twenty five. Do you know anything about 1492 01:24:33.760 --> 01:24:35.640 this person? Because when I saw this picture I thought 1493 01:24:35.680 --> 01:24:38.880 that was Tobin Bell. I have no idea that man 1494 01:24:39.039 --> 01:24:43.760 is so. Irvine Welsh is at a crossroads. After experiencing 1495 01:24:43.840 --> 01:24:47.239 the huge success of several film adaptations and six million 1496 01:24:47.319 --> 01:24:50.119 books sold worldwide, he must be an author. He has 1497 01:24:50.159 --> 01:24:52.520 become acutely aware of his own mortality. Now with this 1498 01:24:52.600 --> 01:24:55.359 hedonistic Day's drawing to a close, the outspoken author decides 1499 01:24:55.399 --> 01:25:00.319 to explore the boundaries of consciousness through a psychedelic DMT trip. Basically, 1500 01:25:00.439 --> 01:25:02.640 let's watch this guy get super high and talk about it. 1501 01:25:03.399 --> 01:25:05.199 I think it's funny because he's old. I think it 1502 01:25:05.279 --> 01:25:06.399 works better because he's old. 1503 01:25:06.880 --> 01:25:13.159 He's the train spotting author. Hello. Oh. He also wrote 1504 01:25:13.279 --> 01:25:13.960 helth as well. 1505 01:25:14.800 --> 01:25:16.880 Never really I watched the adaptation of felf though. 1506 01:25:18.960 --> 01:25:22.760 That checks out Next up October twenty eighth. We got 1507 01:25:22.800 --> 01:25:24.479 a blu ray coming in the US from music Box. 1508 01:25:24.520 --> 01:25:27.319 A familiar touch from last year that I had some 1509 01:25:27.359 --> 01:25:28.880 people that I know that saw this and said it 1510 01:25:28.960 --> 01:25:31.920 was quite good. This is going to have a roundtable 1511 01:25:31.960 --> 01:25:36.319 cast conversation presented by Carrying across generations. There's a creative 1512 01:25:36.359 --> 01:25:39.600 process featurette a conversation with Sarah Friedland Q and a 1513 01:25:39.800 --> 01:25:43.359 with Kenley Kathleen Chalfont from Jacob Burns Film Center. There's 1514 01:25:43.399 --> 01:25:46.079 behind the scenes image gallery, all that stuff. This one 1515 01:25:46.119 --> 01:25:48.880 will not be released through Ocen. Music Box just releasing 1516 01:25:48.960 --> 01:25:54.039 this outside of that model. Yeah, familiar touch, check it out? 1517 01:25:56.039 --> 01:25:56.880 You an anime person. 1518 01:25:56.960 --> 01:26:00.680 Crit No, not at all real. 1519 01:26:02.479 --> 01:26:05.079 I have never even heard of this one show. 1520 01:26:06.720 --> 01:26:09.039 Sorry, that was me, I'll tell you that box six. 1521 01:26:08.920 --> 01:26:14.880 People in the chat are commented. December ninth, Sentai Filmworks 1522 01:26:14.960 --> 01:26:19.880 is releasing Azumonga Dio Complete Collection. I probably said that incorrectly. 1523 01:26:20.760 --> 01:26:23.760 This will have English and Japanese language versions with the 1524 01:26:23.800 --> 01:26:27.920 English subtitles, and there's gonna be a couple extras because 1525 01:26:27.920 --> 01:26:31.119 they're doing the clean opening animation and clean closing animation 1526 01:26:31.960 --> 01:26:33.520 and some production sketches. 1527 01:26:35.279 --> 01:26:35.560 Cool. 1528 01:26:36.439 --> 01:26:41.760 Sure. Next up the Barbarians getting an identical release from 1529 01:26:41.960 --> 01:26:44.039 Keno Lorber that they just put out a couple of 1530 01:26:44.079 --> 01:26:46.920 years ago. I say, a couple it's been since December 1531 01:26:47.000 --> 01:26:49.000 first of twenty twenty, but this is coming out on 1532 01:26:49.079 --> 01:26:52.000 November twenty fifth. It'll have a slipcover. I think that's new. 1533 01:26:52.119 --> 01:26:54.359 But other than that, good movie, you should check it out, 1534 01:26:54.399 --> 01:26:54.920 like this one is. 1535 01:26:54.960 --> 01:26:58.680 Actually very very fun, Okay, I'm in sure. 1536 01:26:59.199 --> 01:27:02.600 Stars the Barbari brothers and Michael Berryman from the original 1537 01:27:02.680 --> 01:27:03.279 Hills Have Eyes. 1538 01:27:03.359 --> 01:27:04.640 I say that that's what sold me. 1539 01:27:06.039 --> 01:27:09.920 More britishisms. Tonight December ninth, there's a blu ray coming 1540 01:27:09.920 --> 01:27:12.640 here in the US from Magnolia of Rabbit Trap from 1541 01:27:12.680 --> 01:27:14.840 this year being British. Have you seen Rabbit Trap yet? 1542 01:27:15.399 --> 01:27:17.039 Never even heard of it. So. 1543 01:27:17.199 --> 01:27:19.680 Rabbit Trap is a film starring Dev Patel, who is 1544 01:27:19.760 --> 01:27:22.840 a musician with his I believe it's yeah, it is 1545 01:27:22.960 --> 01:27:25.920 his wife. They're brand newly married and they're out in 1546 01:27:25.960 --> 01:27:29.000 the middle of nowhere, maybe near Kent, without their chips 1547 01:27:29.439 --> 01:27:34.279 and they are they're making music in this r random 1548 01:27:34.319 --> 01:27:38.920 ass British cottage. It's the nineteen seventies, I think was 1549 01:27:39.000 --> 01:27:41.800 what they say in the film. And it's basically like 1550 01:27:41.920 --> 01:27:44.920 an experimental horror film of them kind of losing it. 1551 01:27:45.079 --> 01:27:47.039 There's a young person that shows up at their door. 1552 01:27:47.399 --> 01:27:51.079 Weird things start to happen. There's a couple weird scenes 1553 01:27:51.079 --> 01:27:56.159 of like people bleeding yellow, like bright yellow, like almost 1554 01:27:56.239 --> 01:27:59.880 gold blood. It's an interesting movie. I don't think it 1555 01:28:00.119 --> 01:28:04.000 worked for me, but I'm not upset having seen it. 1556 01:28:04.479 --> 01:28:06.039 I'm also stoked to have been able to see this 1557 01:28:06.119 --> 01:28:09.359 in a theater, I will say though, because this is 1558 01:28:09.520 --> 01:28:13.439 based around music and like walking through the English countryside. 1559 01:28:13.920 --> 01:28:17.359 The sound in this is superb. If you do get 1560 01:28:17.399 --> 01:28:20.720 a chance, watch this very loud. The sound design on 1561 01:28:20.800 --> 01:28:24.800 this is amazing and depthtel He's kind of incredible and everything. 1562 01:28:25.119 --> 01:28:27.640 Well, yeah, of course, yeah, this didn't get a theatrical release. 1563 01:28:27.720 --> 01:28:29.720 Name me, that's too bad. 1564 01:28:30.399 --> 01:28:37.600 Maybe eventually this looks truly awful. You can buy this 1565 01:28:37.800 --> 01:28:42.000 now on Blu Ray. It's a BDR unfortunately or fortunately 1566 01:28:42.520 --> 01:28:45.720 of Mutilator two from twenty twenty three. This is a 1567 01:28:45.960 --> 01:28:51.800 quasi sequel to the original one, and it's supposedly just 1568 01:28:51.920 --> 01:28:54.560 one of the worst absolute dogwater films of all time. 1569 01:28:55.399 --> 01:28:58.399 If this cover art doesn't convince you, this is the 1570 01:28:58.520 --> 01:29:03.319 actual back of the Blu ray, well now I must 1571 01:29:03.399 --> 01:29:07.359 own it. They're charging like twenty five dollars. 1572 01:29:07.680 --> 01:29:13.479 I love the screenshot of the copyright m that's so funny. 1573 01:29:14.000 --> 01:29:17.840 That's that's like it's like one of the screenshots I 1574 01:29:17.920 --> 01:29:20.159 put into like a video. That's it's awful. 1575 01:29:21.800 --> 01:29:27.880 Oh that's really funny. Yep, yeah, this is uh, Paul says, 1576 01:29:27.920 --> 01:29:34.520 imagine Imprint doing a Mutilator to Despocus set. Oh geez, yeah, 1577 01:29:34.560 --> 01:29:41.760 this is this is not a good looking set. I 1578 01:29:41.840 --> 01:29:44.560 see what silent manipals saying. Why does small lady grab 1579 01:29:44.600 --> 01:29:48.199 onto big hair. It looks like she's hugging a microscopic strand. 1580 01:29:47.960 --> 01:29:53.760 Of a little vocal. I love just the like keying 1581 01:29:53.960 --> 01:29:57.000 out like it's not even been done all the way 1582 01:29:57.359 --> 01:29:59.119 it's yeah, terrible. 1583 01:29:59.159 --> 01:30:02.479 It's it's not great looking. I didn't know Pizzel had 1584 01:30:02.680 --> 01:30:06.359 a cameo Reggie. That's interesting, So yeah, mutilator to check 1585 01:30:06.399 --> 01:30:09.119 it out if you're into some sadism or masochism, not 1586 01:30:09.159 --> 01:30:14.520 sadism masochism.

Nothing whatsoever that's. 1598 01:30:54.000 --> 01:30:57.159 New for solid mandible. That's about ten bananas. 1599 01:30:59.800 --> 01:31:04.039 And we were talking earlier about price. Obviously, the Silent 1600 01:31:04.119 --> 01:31:06.880 Night Deadly Night is very expensive at two hundred and twenty. 1601 01:31:07.279 --> 01:31:09.520 I don't even remember the currency we made up, but 1602 01:31:09.600 --> 01:31:14.560 DOLLARUS the kill Bill two hundred Australian DOLLARUS, and that's 1603 01:31:15.000 --> 01:31:15.720 still a lot. 1604 01:31:17.680 --> 01:31:20.520 It's too much. It is too much, Yes, absolutely, it's 1605 01:31:20.520 --> 01:31:22.640 fall too much. There is I promise you there is 1606 01:31:22.720 --> 01:31:24.840 not a single release of any movie that you could 1607 01:31:24.920 --> 01:31:27.319 ever possibly put out that would make me pay that much. 1608 01:31:28.159 --> 01:31:30.319 So here's the thing, like, this has never had a 1609 01:31:30.359 --> 01:31:33.439 four K release in Australia, so I'm glad it's coming out. However, 1610 01:31:34.439 --> 01:31:39.079 it is cheaper to literally import the US four ks 1611 01:31:39.359 --> 01:31:40.279 than to buy this set. 1612 01:31:41.920 --> 01:31:46.880 It's ridiculous. I'm all right, it's so silly. Yeah. 1613 01:31:47.600 --> 01:31:49.960 Lots of questions, of course about why isn't this the 1614 01:31:50.000 --> 01:31:52.680 whole Bloody Affair? Why isn't this the Japanese cut of 1615 01:31:52.760 --> 01:31:56.319 Kill Bill Volume one? Just so everybody's aware if you're 1616 01:31:56.359 --> 01:31:59.920 listening to this, watching this later. Quentin Tarantino has stated 1617 01:32:00.319 --> 01:32:03.399 until he gets the rights back, that will never be released. 1618 01:32:03.439 --> 01:32:05.319 He wants it to be an event thing at his theater, 1619 01:32:05.439 --> 01:32:07.119 and the rights do not go back to him until 1620 01:32:07.199 --> 01:32:10.560 the year twenty fifty three. We will not be getting 1621 01:32:11.520 --> 01:32:15.760 an actual legitimate home video release of The Whole Bloody 1622 01:32:15.760 --> 01:32:19.239 Affair from both Kill Bill films until at least twenty 1623 01:32:19.319 --> 01:32:29.039 fifty three. Good Yeah, here we go, more britishisms. Good lord. 1624 01:32:29.439 --> 01:32:31.960 November twenty fifth, We're getting a four K box set 1625 01:32:32.000 --> 01:32:36.439 from Kena Larber of the Alec Guinness Masterpiece collection. This 1626 01:32:36.640 --> 01:32:39.239 has kind hearts and coronets, The Lavender Hill Mob, The 1627 01:32:39.279 --> 01:32:41.560 Man in the White Suit, and The Lady Killers for 1628 01:32:41.840 --> 01:32:46.119 Stone Cold Classics. Specifically, The Lady Killers is genuinely a masterpiece. 1629 01:32:46.960 --> 01:32:49.920 Glad these are all coming out in a full release. 1630 01:32:50.359 --> 01:32:53.319 All of these have extras, All of these have great 1631 01:32:53.359 --> 01:33:01.319 looking releases.

Yeah, any any thoughts 1634 01:33:09.760 --> 01:33:11.159 on on the set or else. 1635 01:33:12.319 --> 01:33:18.680 It's missing a new hope. But I have seen The 1636 01:33:18.760 --> 01:33:23.720 Lady Killers and yeah, it's a great movie, is brilliant. 1637 01:33:24.479 --> 01:33:28.000 It's a shame that his his memory is one of 1638 01:33:28.199 --> 01:33:32.800 just the Star Wars guy. Yeah, you know that stinks. 1639 01:33:32.960 --> 01:33:35.279 It's kind of like, you know, when any Harry Potter 1640 01:33:35.479 --> 01:33:38.079 actor dies, it's just like, oh yeah, Harry Potter actor 1641 01:33:38.319 --> 01:33:41.319 Maggie Smith, right, and you're like, what the what the. 1642 01:33:41.319 --> 01:33:43.920 Fuck are you talking about she's only ever made eight movies. 1643 01:33:45.279 --> 01:33:48.000 It's so stupid, and yeah, it's a shame. So I'm 1644 01:33:48.079 --> 01:33:51.520 glad this is doing a little bit like kind of rebutta. 1645 01:33:51.960 --> 01:33:53.960 Yes, uh, and only one of these had had a 1646 01:33:54.000 --> 01:33:56.000 four K release in the US before, so this is 1647 01:33:56.279 --> 01:33:57.680 this is a really good chance to pick up all 1648 01:33:57.720 --> 01:34:04.399 of these.

These are classic, amazing movies. 1696 01:36:36.640 --> 01:36:39.520 This is the These are the movies that Tarantino stole 1697 01:36:39.560 --> 01:36:43.159 from to make The Departed, and it shows they are 1698 01:36:43.279 --> 01:36:46.760 Uarantine similar. Yeah, did I not say Tarantino? 1699 01:36:48.600 --> 01:36:50.039 Tarantino didn't make The Departed? 1700 01:36:53.239 --> 01:36:53.680 Whoops? 1701 01:36:54.479 --> 01:36:56.319 Okay, that's school saying, are you okay? 1702 01:36:56.800 --> 01:37:00.760 I literally was wearing a PERSESEI shirt earlier, he said confidently. 1703 01:37:01.279 --> 01:37:03.920 I started to question whether I knew what I knew 1704 01:37:04.359 --> 01:37:04.720 my bad. 1705 01:37:04.920 --> 01:37:08.479 Yeah, it's what inspired Scorsese. Wow. Yeah, I was thinking 1706 01:37:08.479 --> 01:37:11.319 about Tarantino still because we just talked about him My Bad. Yeah, 1707 01:37:11.520 --> 01:37:16.479 clearly Scorsese whoops. Yeah. But these are very very good movies. 1708 01:37:16.520 --> 01:37:20.279 If you've never seen them, they're absolutely worth it. My 1709 01:37:20.560 --> 01:37:22.680 brain broke. That's so good. 1710 01:37:22.880 --> 01:37:24.840 I mean, I can see where it comes from because 1711 01:37:25.279 --> 01:37:28.079 Tarantino basically steals for all of his movies. 1712 01:37:28.399 --> 01:37:31.920 Yeah, so you know, it's literally just because we were 1713 01:37:31.960 --> 01:37:36.359 just talking about him. Next, I mentioned KII Cult earlier. 1714 01:37:36.479 --> 01:37:38.359 This is the volume two coming out.

Three films that I've not seen, 1718 01:37:47.119 --> 01:37:50.000 although Jack be Nimble I did see. I think it 1719 01:37:50.119 --> 01:37:54.279 was Altered Innocence released that a couple of years ago. 1720 01:37:54.479 --> 01:37:57.399 I think it was them that put it out. I 1721 01:37:57.520 --> 01:38:00.560 love the art style on these sets and again refilms 1722 01:38:00.600 --> 01:38:03.800 that like hardly anybody has seen whatsoever. We got new 1723 01:38:03.840 --> 01:38:05.840 extras on all of them, forty eight page booklet with 1724 01:38:05.920 --> 01:38:09.640 new essays behind the scenes.

I've never I don't think I've ever even 1729 01:38:23.279 --> 01:38:23.600 heard of this. 1730 01:38:23.880 --> 01:38:26.039 No, I've never heard of this. It looks stope though. 1731 01:38:26.199 --> 01:38:27.199 I really like the artwork. 1732 01:38:28.279 --> 01:38:30.760 Yes, some interesting art on this one. This is from 1733 01:38:30.840 --> 01:38:33.720 Sam Ellis, who also did the cut. This follows art 1734 01:38:33.720 --> 01:38:36.560 student Ben Willis, who finds himself unable to sleep after 1735 01:38:36.640 --> 01:38:39.119 a painful breakup. To pass the long nights, he takes 1736 01:38:39.159 --> 01:38:41.640 a late shift at the local supermarket, where time seems 1737 01:38:41.680 --> 01:38:46.399 to stretch endlessly amid fluorescent aisles and eccentric coworkers. Ben 1738 01:38:46.439 --> 01:38:49.000 discovers an unusual way of coping with insomnia by letting 1739 01:38:49.000 --> 01:38:53.960 his imagination transform the ordinary into something extraordinary. This is 1740 01:38:54.039 --> 01:38:56.880 going to be a collector set with eight art cards, 1741 01:38:56.920 --> 01:39:00.279 reversible poster, all that same stuff, forty eight page book 1742 01:39:01.119 --> 01:39:03.760 with buying the scenes. New essays by Alexander Heller Nicholas 1743 01:39:03.840 --> 01:39:08.079 and David Michael Brown. New audio commentary with the Wives Colangelo, 1744 01:39:08.479 --> 01:39:12.159 New audio guide, cash Back inspired short film by Chris Elena. 1745 01:39:13.159 --> 01:39:15.279 Chris Elena speaks on the movie, and then we've got 1746 01:39:15.359 --> 01:39:17.960 some archival extras. I want to see this, I would 1747 01:39:18.079 --> 01:39:19.720 realize to see if this is cool. 1748 01:39:21.199 --> 01:39:22.159 I have the concept too. 1749 01:39:23.199 --> 01:39:26.399 I'm in reservoir, says middle school me. Love this movie 1750 01:39:26.439 --> 01:39:31.000 because of a certain timestop scene. Let's see Mozart said, 1751 01:39:31.039 --> 01:39:33.800 I remember this had a really popular song, cash Back 1752 01:39:33.880 --> 01:39:35.760 is pretty great. The lead actress has so much chrisma 1753 01:39:35.800 --> 01:39:40.039 in this movie. Nice cash Back sounds good. It's about 1754 01:39:40.039 --> 01:39:41.880 a guy who can freeze time and as I recall, 1755 01:39:42.039 --> 01:39:45.119 used that to disrupte women, hence the cover of the 1756 01:39:45.159 --> 01:39:48.079 Blu Ray. Then that makes a lot of sense. 1757 01:39:48.279 --> 01:39:49.800 There's a whole own genre about that. 1758 01:39:49.960 --> 01:39:52.880 Now that's crazy has officially purchased the Blu Ray while 1759 01:39:52.920 --> 01:39:57.000 we were talking. Next up, January fourteenth, we're getting a 1760 01:39:57.000 --> 01:39:59.840 Blu Ray release of Tourist Trap. Yes, Tourist Trap, d 1761 01:40:00.239 --> 01:40:03.600 Moon film from nineteen seventy nine getting yet another release. 1762 01:40:04.199 --> 01:40:08.319 This will have the unrated cut and the alternate cut. Unfortunately, 1763 01:40:08.399 --> 01:40:11.079 this will likely be the same presentation as done by 1764 01:40:11.119 --> 01:40:14.760 Full Moon, which means it probably won't look all that amazing. 1765 01:40:15.439 --> 01:40:17.359 It's just sort of what they can license. Right now. 1766 01:40:17.960 --> 01:40:22.399 That being said, I I'm not a huge full Moon Guy. 1767 01:40:22.680 --> 01:40:25.520 I think this is the best title associated with Full Moon. 1768 01:40:25.640 --> 01:40:29.800 I adore this movie. Chuck Connors is creepy as shit 1769 01:40:30.000 --> 01:40:32.840 in this movie. Fourty eight page book behind the scenes 1770 01:40:32.880 --> 01:40:36.399 and new essays by Justin Beam and Nat Bramer. You've 1771 01:40:36.439 --> 01:40:39.199 got the big collector's box on the outside. You've got 1772 01:40:39.239 --> 01:40:42.960 eight art cards, versabile poster. New commentary by Natt Bramer. 1773 01:40:43.319 --> 01:40:45.840 New interview with the actor Jocelyn Jones, New interview with 1774 01:40:45.880 --> 01:40:49.399 the actor Jerry van Ness, New lost scenes from script 1775 01:40:49.439 --> 01:40:52.039 to Screen. Jarrett Gahan speaks on Tourist Trap, and then 1776 01:40:52.119 --> 01:40:54.800 from r Kival extras. I love this movie. If you've 1777 01:40:54.880 --> 01:40:57.279 never seen it, highly recommend checking it out. Have you 1778 01:40:57.359 --> 01:40:58.439 seen Tourist Trap ever? 1779 01:40:58.840 --> 01:41:01.079 I have not, but it looks really fucking sick. I 1780 01:41:01.159 --> 01:41:02.239 really like the artwork for this. 1781 01:41:02.880 --> 01:41:05.439 Yeah, it's a fun art style. They're doing this for 1782 01:41:05.520 --> 01:41:08.920 all of their Full Moon type of films, so it's 1783 01:41:09.000 --> 01:41:10.760 nice to see it continue even though it's not part 1784 01:41:10.760 --> 01:41:12.119 of one of their Full Moon box sets. 1785 01:41:12.600 --> 01:41:15.399 You know, I'm like off work all next week and 1786 01:41:15.479 --> 01:41:17.800 I was going to use that to catch up in 1787 01:41:17.880 --> 01:41:20.359 a lot of movies. I've added Tourist Trapping cash back 1788 01:41:20.399 --> 01:41:21.479 to like my little. 1789 01:41:21.279 --> 01:41:27.560 List, Nice, very nice. Then January fourteenth, they're also releasing 1790 01:41:27.560 --> 01:41:30.039 a blu ray of Wasabi from two thousand and one. 1791 01:41:31.399 --> 01:41:34.760 I remember this movie being terrible, but it's been a 1792 01:41:34.800 --> 01:41:37.600 long time, This says when a hard hitting French detective 1793 01:41:37.640 --> 01:41:40.399 played by Jean Renau has dropped into Tokyo for the 1794 01:41:40.479 --> 01:41:43.479 funeral of his long lost love. He brings fists, attitude 1795 01:41:43.520 --> 01:41:46.079 and zero patients, but in a city where nothing is 1796 01:41:46.119 --> 01:41:48.359 what it seems, he'll need more than brute force to 1797 01:41:48.520 --> 01:41:51.359 uncover the truth. You got a forty eight page book 1798 01:41:51.359 --> 01:41:53.800 on this, with new essays by Adrian Smith and Kieran Fisher. 1799 01:41:54.359 --> 01:41:56.760 I got a hard box on the outside, new audio 1800 01:41:56.800 --> 01:42:00.720 commentary by Camille Zorin, and then a new on Japan 1801 01:42:00.880 --> 01:42:04.039 through with Sabi by Martin Catario, plus a bunch of 1802 01:42:04.159 --> 01:42:06.960 archival extras. It's been a long time since I've seen 1803 01:42:07.000 --> 01:42:10.000 with Sabi any thoughts of the chat. This doesn't seem 1804 01:42:10.079 --> 01:42:14.920 like one KRIT has seen now. I gotta admit this 1805 01:42:15.119 --> 01:42:19.840 poster does not instill much more confidence for me. Apasta sucks, 1806 01:42:25.960 --> 01:42:28.159 silent manial says I love genre. No, I'm sad he's 1807 01:42:28.159 --> 01:42:31.159 only in like two good movies that I've seen Reservoir 1808 01:42:31.199 --> 01:42:35.359 says I miss the genre. No, yeah, I dick my 1809 01:42:35.520 --> 01:42:40.159 pist everywhere. Let's a good comment, yeah with Sabby. Check 1810 01:42:40.199 --> 01:42:42.800 it out if that's something you're into. And if you 1811 01:42:42.880 --> 01:42:46.600 already have the four K box set of the Toxic 1812 01:42:46.640 --> 01:42:49.039 Avenger films that was released in the US by Trauma, 1813 01:42:49.520 --> 01:42:51.720 you can just buy the new one from Umbrella as 1814 01:42:51.760 --> 01:42:54.199 the Collector's edition with all their exclusive extras and all 1815 01:42:54.239 --> 01:42:57.800 that stuff. Good looking art on this. It's not fancy 1816 01:42:57.960 --> 01:43:00.479 or huge or anything like that. It's much cheaper than 1817 01:43:00.520 --> 01:43:02.560 that giant box. And also, if you've already got the 1818 01:43:03.640 --> 01:43:07.000 Trauma release of the four K box that it's not 1819 01:43:07.119 --> 01:43:08.960 worth it to rebte it because they're all the same discs, 1820 01:43:09.119 --> 01:43:10.800 so you may as well just buy this one to 1821 01:43:10.920 --> 01:43:17.319 compliment it. And that's nice, works nice. Eureka over in 1822 01:43:17.399 --> 01:43:22.279 the UK once again has posted their announcements and we've 1823 01:43:22.359 --> 01:43:25.920 got on December eighth, we've got a blu ray coming 1824 01:43:26.119 --> 01:43:30.000 of Apache from nineteen fifty four starring Burt Lancaster. This 1825 01:43:30.159 --> 01:43:32.640 is part of their Masters of Cinema line. This one 1826 01:43:32.760 --> 01:43:35.119 is going to have a slipcover on it. And you've 1827 01:43:35.159 --> 01:43:38.760 got Western scholar Jenny Barrett and the film writer Richard 1828 01:43:38.800 --> 01:43:42.880 Combs speaks on this in the booklet You've Got a 1829 01:43:43.239 --> 01:43:46.039 New Interview with Austin Fisher, the author of Radical Frontiers 1830 01:43:46.079 --> 01:43:49.520 in the Spaghetti Western New interview with film historian Sheldon 1831 01:43:49.560 --> 01:43:54.079 Hall on Robert Aldrich and the Western genre. And yeah, apatche, 1832 01:43:54.159 --> 01:43:57.000 I've never seen this one. Not really my style. You 1833 01:43:57.079 --> 01:43:58.880 and I have never talked much about westerns. Are you 1834 01:43:58.920 --> 01:44:01.079 into this? Uh? 1835 01:44:01.560 --> 01:44:04.439 Not really. I'm not a big western guy. But also 1836 01:44:04.520 --> 01:44:07.000 I've not seen many westerns. I've seen like the spaghetti 1837 01:44:07.000 --> 01:44:10.479 Westerns and a coroup of modern westerns, but like, yeah, 1838 01:44:11.000 --> 01:44:13.960 not really. I have seen Apatri though, Oh interesting. What 1839 01:44:14.039 --> 01:44:16.800 do you think my dad shouted me at when I 1840 01:44:16.920 --> 01:44:20.159 was like, I don't know, ten eleven something like. 1841 01:44:20.199 --> 01:44:22.359 That, remember it much? Since that was only like four 1842 01:44:22.399 --> 01:44:23.000 years ago. 1843 01:44:24.520 --> 01:44:27.359 I don't remember fucking anything about it. I do know 1844 01:44:27.439 --> 01:44:30.239 that Charles Bronson's in it though, from the greatest scale 1845 01:44:30.399 --> 01:44:32.199 and stuff, but that's pretty much. 1846 01:44:32.239 --> 01:44:35.920 I like, no, all right, not too bad. 1847 01:44:36.039 --> 01:44:36.199 Then. 1848 01:44:37.039 --> 01:44:40.000 Then they're also putting out a triple feature of Samo 1849 01:44:40.199 --> 01:44:42.439 Hung films. This is coming on December eighth in the UK, 1850 01:44:42.840 --> 01:44:47.039 December ninth in the North America. We've got in here 1851 01:44:47.239 --> 01:44:50.039 three films from seventy four, eighty eight and ninety and 1852 01:44:50.399 --> 01:44:55.479 they are The Manchu Boxer to Sorry, Paper Marriage? Which one? 1853 01:44:55.560 --> 01:44:58.159 Is it? The Manchoo Boxer to start them? That's not 1854 01:44:58.279 --> 01:45:01.680 the title, The Manchu Boxer, Paper Marriage and Shanghai Shanghai. 1855 01:45:01.880 --> 01:45:05.520 Those are I could not read what I typed early 1856 01:45:05.640 --> 01:45:10.520 this morning. We've got on this a slip cover with 1857 01:45:10.600 --> 01:45:13.279 new arwork by Sam Gilby, a new writing on Samoe 1858 01:45:13.359 --> 01:45:16.880 Hung that is in the booklet. You've got an exclusive 1859 01:45:16.960 --> 01:45:23.399 disc to this release which has the the what is 1860 01:45:23.479 --> 01:45:24.560 what are they calling it here? 1861 01:45:26.720 --> 01:45:26.880 Oh? 1862 01:45:27.079 --> 01:45:29.960 Where did it go?

So if 1865 01:45:38.439 --> 01:45:40.760 you want those international versions, you got to buy the 1866 01:45:41.079 --> 01:45:43.520 limited release, otherwise you're only going to get that first 1867 01:45:43.840 --> 01:45:47.640 disc in the standard version. Eventually, we got a new 1868 01:45:47.680 --> 01:45:51.399 commentary with Frank Chang and Michael Worth on The Manchu Boxer, 1869 01:45:51.520 --> 01:45:54.800 New commentary on Paper Marriage with Arnavenma and Domini Ting, 1870 01:45:55.319 --> 01:45:58.119 New commentary on Shanghai Shanghai with Frank Chang and F.

And 1872 01:46:01.840 --> 01:46:06.720 this looks like a solid release, although I've heard the 1873 01:46:06.760 --> 01:46:09.199 movies aren't too great. Have you seen any of these ones? 1874 01:46:09.720 --> 01:46:17.279 No, I've heard of Shaghai Shanghai. Well, I've not seen 1875 01:46:17.720 --> 01:46:18.159 any of them. 1876 01:46:19.800 --> 01:46:22.560 All right, what about Sama Hung? I know you talked 1877 01:46:22.560 --> 01:46:24.239 about martial arts into Sama Hung. 1878 01:46:24.199 --> 01:46:32.800 Much Not really No, A bit underexposed dot com like 1879 01:46:33.039 --> 01:46:33.800 comment too much. 1880 01:46:33.840 --> 01:46:37.279 Either way, I totally get that. I've liked what I've 1881 01:46:37.319 --> 01:46:40.239 seen him in. I think he's fun, He's a decent 1882 01:46:40.279 --> 01:46:48.279 fight choreographer. Yeah. Quina Larber launched their fall sale just today, 1883 01:46:48.399 --> 01:46:51.600 seven hundred and fifty titles on sale. Sale goes through 1884 01:46:51.720 --> 01:46:54.680 October twentieth, and there is free shipping if you get 1885 01:46:54.680 --> 01:46:58.760 at least sixty bucks or more. And this feels like 1886 01:46:58.800 --> 01:47:00.880 a long time coming. I feel like the last Keno 1887 01:47:01.000 --> 01:47:04.680 sale was gosh, something like May or June, and that 1888 01:47:04.960 --> 01:47:07.479 feels like a very long time in between stuff for them. 1889 01:47:08.760 --> 01:47:11.159 Not some of the titles that I was expecting to 1890 01:47:11.159 --> 01:47:13.479 see in the sale, but still plenty to choose from, 1891 01:47:13.560 --> 01:47:17.079 lots of great titles. My big reminder is when you 1892 01:47:17.159 --> 01:47:19.600 go to this and you see either a couple things 1893 01:47:19.640 --> 01:47:22.000 that you're into, or maybe you're under the free shipping threshold. 1894 01:47:22.439 --> 01:47:24.800 Don't forget, it's not just the sale. They've got their 1895 01:47:24.840 --> 01:47:27.399 wild supplies last section where stuff is going out of print, 1896 01:47:27.720 --> 01:47:29.439 and all of that stuff is on sale too. You 1897 01:47:29.479 --> 01:47:32.039 can get stuff like if you're, you know, four dollars 1898 01:47:32.119 --> 01:47:34.640 under the free shipping threshold, there's movies going out of print, 1899 01:47:34.640 --> 01:47:36.560 and you're probably gonna find one that's only like seven 1900 01:47:36.640 --> 01:47:38.720 bucks and that'll get you right over that threshold. 1901 01:47:41.119 --> 01:47:42.840 This graphic is hilarious. 1902 01:47:44.000 --> 01:47:47.399 It's a weird one to make the cornerstone of your sale. 1903 01:47:49.000 --> 01:47:51.520 Like, sure, why is I don't know why the twenty 1904 01:47:51.600 --> 01:47:55.600 five is like underneath? Why wouldn't you just like make 1905 01:47:56.039 --> 01:47:58.800 I guess like if the hull text like spread across 1906 01:47:58.840 --> 01:47:59.960 the whole image, it would work. 1907 01:48:00.199 --> 01:48:03.399 Well, it doesn't frame, it's to frame it. Maybe maybe 1908 01:48:03.479 --> 01:48:03.840 I don't know. 1909 01:48:04.119 --> 01:48:06.000 It's a weird graphic anyway. 1910 01:48:06.039 --> 01:48:10.960 Yeah, it's not perfect. Anaconda from nineteen ninety seven is 1911 01:48:11.000 --> 01:48:13.960 getting a four K steel book by Sony themselves, which 1912 01:48:14.039 --> 01:48:16.760 means it will look very good. This will also probably 1913 01:48:16.800 --> 01:48:20.119 be pretty expensive. It is going to have deleted and 1914 01:48:20.199 --> 01:48:22.960 extended scenes for the first time. Ever, there's gonna be 1915 01:48:22.960 --> 01:48:24.600 an interview with the director on here, interview with the 1916 01:48:24.640 --> 01:48:28.000 co writer Hans Bauer. Now, the big thing, how do 1917 01:48:28.000 --> 01:48:29.479 you feel about the cover of the steel Book. 1918 01:48:36.760 --> 01:48:38.039 I don't fill anything. 1919 01:48:39.760 --> 01:48:41.840 A lot of people seemed quite happy with it. A 1920 01:48:41.880 --> 01:48:44.600 lot of people also seem quite sad or upset about it. 1921 01:48:45.000 --> 01:48:49.239 My big thing is, uh, snakes don't have eyelids. That 1922 01:48:49.479 --> 01:48:51.800 is not the eye of a snake on the cover 1923 01:48:51.960 --> 01:48:52.159 of this. 1924 01:48:54.359 --> 01:48:59.199 Interesting. I didn't even think of that. Yeah, it's like 1925 01:48:59.279 --> 01:48:59.640 a gek. 1926 01:48:59.640 --> 01:49:02.640 I was. Yes, I believe it is a gecko that 1927 01:49:02.920 --> 01:49:06.479 is not at all an anaconda, let alone any snake. 1928 01:49:06.520 --> 01:49:11.800 I don't think this is a very weird choice to 1929 01:49:11.960 --> 01:49:14.760 make the cover of a steel book for anaconda. 1930 01:49:16.439 --> 01:49:20.079 Well, so, like, they have tons of artwork ority present 1931 01:49:20.199 --> 01:49:23.119 for this movie. Yes, they could have just used any 1932 01:49:23.199 --> 01:49:23.359 of it. 1933 01:49:24.079 --> 01:49:26.399 You could have just used the original poster and we've 1934 01:49:26.439 --> 01:49:27.960 all have been very happy. 1935 01:49:28.039 --> 01:49:35.359 And nobody would have been upset. Yeah. I don't think 1936 01:49:35.399 --> 01:49:40.520 there's a single fun of anaconda thinking where's the original designs? Designs? 1937 01:49:41.319 --> 01:49:43.479 Like you're a fan of anaconda, which means that you 1938 01:49:43.520 --> 01:49:46.640 don't care too much about how shit looks. 1939 01:49:48.239 --> 01:49:50.960 It does look like a crocodile eye a bit, and yeah, 1940 01:49:51.119 --> 01:49:53.399 silent Mandible's right, he says. The snake in the movie 1941 01:49:53.479 --> 01:49:55.359 did have a weird design, but I mean, come on, 1942 01:49:55.760 --> 01:50:02.079 at least use a snake eye on the cover, hey, 1943 01:50:02.560 --> 01:50:05.600 In the newest British News over in the UK, Paramount 1944 01:50:05.720 --> 01:50:09.039 is releasing on December twod a big collector's edition of 1945 01:50:09.119 --> 01:50:12.680 The Warriors from nineteen seventy nine. Yes, they let Arrow 1946 01:50:12.760 --> 01:50:15.000 release The Warriors on four K in the US, but 1947 01:50:15.119 --> 01:50:17.600 they said, no, screw you, We're doing it ourselves in 1948 01:50:17.640 --> 01:50:20.279 the UK. And you can buy the set and get 1949 01:50:20.279 --> 01:50:24.479 a rigid slipcase. You can get a capacity wallet. I 1950 01:50:24.560 --> 01:50:26.720 don't know what that means. You can get a photo book, 1951 01:50:26.840 --> 01:50:29.239 six art cards, two posters, two sticker sheets, and a 1952 01:50:29.319 --> 01:50:33.439 collectible sign because everybody that is after The Warriors wants 1953 01:50:33.479 --> 01:50:37.840 a collectible sign, right obviously. So my look at the 1954 01:50:37.920 --> 01:50:40.760 back of this to get the specs. It looks like 1955 01:50:40.960 --> 01:50:43.880 the four k's the theatrical version, and the blu ray 1956 01:50:44.000 --> 01:50:46.560 is the awful director's cut that nobody likes, which isn't 1957 01:50:46.600 --> 01:50:49.640 even the director's cut. The studio medaled with it. But 1958 01:50:50.439 --> 01:50:53.399 that to say, if you like The Warriors and you 1959 01:50:53.439 --> 01:50:56.439 don't have the arrow release. This is a perfectly fine companion. 1960 01:50:56.520 --> 01:51:01.159 It looks like, how do you feel about The Warriors? 1961 01:51:02.239 --> 01:51:06.560 Never seen it? I don't watch it on principle because 1962 01:51:06.600 --> 01:51:09.279 everyone I've ever met has been the most annoying person 1963 01:51:09.399 --> 01:51:10.960 in the world when you tell them you haven't seen 1964 01:51:11.000 --> 01:51:16.319 The Warriors. So I just refuse to watch it because 1965 01:51:16.359 --> 01:51:17.680 I don't want to be one of those people. 1966 01:51:18.520 --> 01:51:21.680 That is maybe the most hipster thing I've ever heard. 1967 01:51:21.720 --> 01:51:25.760 You say, Yeah, it's pretty pretty hipster. 1968 01:51:27.479 --> 01:51:29.199 Maybe I'll get to it one day and just keep 1969 01:51:29.279 --> 01:51:30.760 pretending like I haven't seen it, But. 1970 01:51:31.920 --> 01:51:33.840 Can I just say it would be hilarious if you 1971 01:51:33.960 --> 01:51:36.479 held on for that long, watched it and you're like, shit, 1972 01:51:36.600 --> 01:51:37.760 this movie is perfect. 1973 01:51:37.880 --> 01:51:39.960 No, and I'll turn it into one of those people. 1974 01:51:41.800 --> 01:51:43.600 I'm kind of a film person, am I I'm a 1975 01:51:43.840 --> 01:51:48.159 Denzel kind of question.

I feel like it's definitely 2033 01:55:19.960 --> 01:55:23.279 like a generations thing, like what it's what it's kind 2034 01:55:23.319 --> 01:55:29.680 of parodying doesn't really exist anymore then, it's true, and 2035 01:55:29.840 --> 01:55:33.560 I didn't grow up where it did exist, so it's like, yeah, 2036 01:55:33.600 --> 01:55:36.800 it's parodying a thing that I just never saw or experienced, 2037 01:55:37.479 --> 01:55:39.960 so like it has its moments, but like not to 2038 01:55:40.039 --> 01:55:43.720 the point where I feel culturally attached to it. 2039 01:55:44.720 --> 01:55:47.159 Did you see the sequel yet? No? 2040 01:55:48.439 --> 01:55:49.680 I saw that. You saw it? Though? 2041 01:55:50.159 --> 01:55:52.680 Yeah, I mean it's worth watching. It's not special. It's 2042 01:55:52.720 --> 01:55:55.119 nowhere near the power of the first one, but it's 2043 01:55:55.279 --> 01:55:58.760 it's it's got a lot of funny moments. I do like, 2044 01:56:00.039 --> 01:56:02.600 oh gosh, I'm not gonna remember her name off hand. 2045 01:56:04.000 --> 01:56:06.920 We were talking about Taskmaster before we went live.

Hopefully you're not gonna 2089 01:58:21.960 --> 01:58:23.399 be like, yeah, I think it should, but no. 2090 01:58:23.520 --> 01:58:26.600 It's great. The thing with me K is that like 2091 01:58:27.439 --> 01:58:30.359 ninety percent of his catalog is going to be overlooked 2092 01:58:30.359 --> 01:58:32.960 because he puts out about, you know, fifty movies a year, 2093 01:58:33.800 --> 01:58:36.840 so it's like it the main ones always get picked up. 2094 01:58:36.880 --> 01:58:39.640 But like to go complace on me K is such 2095 01:58:39.680 --> 01:58:40.079 a task. 2096 01:58:40.720 --> 01:58:41.560 Nah, impossible. 2097 01:58:41.960 --> 01:58:45.239 Yeah, so like you are gonna miss a bunch of 2098 01:58:45.399 --> 01:58:48.279 whatever he releases, no matter how much you try. But 2099 01:58:48.399 --> 01:58:52.239 this one is so good. And this is the thing 2100 01:58:52.279 --> 01:58:55.159 about me Ka as well, considering how much like he 2101 01:58:55.319 --> 01:59:00.199 puts out his bat and average is incredible. Yeah, for 2102 01:59:00.359 --> 01:59:03.239 such a prolific director, he rarely misses. 2103 01:59:04.560 --> 01:59:05.199 I agree. 2104 01:59:06.479 --> 01:59:07.720 Yeah, but yeah, this one's great. 2105 01:59:08.119 --> 01:59:14.039 Brendan says, I've only seen around sixty Mek films. We 2106 01:59:14.119 --> 01:59:16.840 got a commentary with Tom mess on this one, which 2107 01:59:16.880 --> 01:59:20.560 should be great, which I think that commentary was also 2108 01:59:20.720 --> 01:59:22.880 on the Shout release of this that came out like 2109 01:59:23.039 --> 01:59:25.800 five years or actually it probably came out earlier than that. 2110 01:59:26.560 --> 01:59:28.159 It might not be on there, but uh yeah, this 2111 01:59:28.319 --> 01:59:30.199 is a good movie. Check it out if you've never 2112 01:59:30.279 --> 01:59:34.439 seen it. Meek is pretty great. Noodle says, I've only 2113 01:59:34.560 --> 01:59:37.039 seen one or two of his What are the favorites 2114 01:59:37.039 --> 01:59:37.479 of Meks? 2115 01:59:37.520 --> 01:59:39.279 You got any titles you want to call out for?

Visitor Q 2123 01:59:59.399 --> 02:00:02.199 is the third one. I was going to say, yeah, yeah, 2124 02:00:05.560 --> 02:00:08.600 I'm trying to think Graveyard of Honor masterpiece. 2125 02:00:08.680 --> 02:00:17.439 Though Graveyard of Honor is really good. There's one I'm 2126 02:00:17.479 --> 02:00:23.640 trying to remember, Crows zero Crows zero Yeah, from like 2127 02:00:23.720 --> 02:00:27.680 two thousand and seven or eight. It's a really really 2128 02:00:27.720 --> 02:00:29.800 good movie. It's one of my favorite Mek movies. 2129 02:00:32.399 --> 02:00:38.840 One is called classic definitely one that everybody happiness of 2130 02:00:38.880 --> 02:00:42.199 the categories is a must watch for a lot of 2131 02:00:42.199 --> 02:00:44.720 people if you're into that that style. It's so good. 2132 02:00:47.039 --> 02:00:50.800 Rainy Dog, Rainy Dog's really good. Yeah. But someone just 2133 02:00:50.840 --> 02:00:55.199 said throughout in audition noodles, Yeah, audition. But if you've 2134 02:00:55.239 --> 02:00:59.000 seen like no Mek movies auditions like the one, I 2135 02:00:59.079 --> 02:01:02.439 think that will Eachy the Killer. 2136 02:01:04.760 --> 02:01:07.399 Uh, this is a weird call. He did a short 2137 02:01:07.520 --> 02:01:11.520 film called Midnight that I think is on Netflix right now. 2138 02:01:12.000 --> 02:01:13.840 If I remember, right, and it came out last year 2139 02:01:14.159 --> 02:01:17.119 and it's like fifteen minutes, I think fifteen twenty minutes. 2140 02:01:17.399 --> 02:01:20.039 It's shockingly well made. But don't expect like a great 2141 02:01:20.079 --> 02:01:22.600 story or anything like that. But it's really fun to watch. 2142 02:01:22.680 --> 02:01:24.359 And if it's not, if it's not on Netflix, it 2143 02:01:24.479 --> 02:01:25.319 should be on YouTube. 2144 02:01:26.600 --> 02:01:26.800 Yeah. 2145 02:01:26.800 --> 02:01:30.600 I'm not saying that it's it's very style. I mean 2146 02:01:30.640 --> 02:01:32.680 it's BK, so yeah, of course it was gonna be stylish, 2147 02:01:32.720 --> 02:01:35.279 but it's very good. The big thing with him is 2148 02:01:35.439 --> 02:01:37.239 his stuff is gory. I mean, look at this cover. 2149 02:01:37.319 --> 02:01:40.399 His stuff is usually gory. His pactics are usually great. 2150 02:01:41.359 --> 02:01:44.039 It's it's good stuff. Check it out like Each of 2151 02:01:44.119 --> 02:01:46.840 the Killer specifically, if you've never seen Each of the Killer, 2152 02:01:46.960 --> 02:01:49.199 for what he does for Gore in that movie, it's 2153 02:01:49.359 --> 02:01:51.680 it's wild. And the audition is just creepy as shit. 2154 02:01:52.279 --> 02:01:56.239 Well, auditions great. I remember when we was doing it 2155 02:01:56.359 --> 02:01:58.479 was the last time I was on and it's doing 2156 02:01:58.600 --> 02:02:03.920 unconventional rah Mons movies. For Valentine's Day, an audition was 2157 02:02:04.000 --> 02:02:08.960 one of mine. I remember, like distinct, it's one of 2158 02:02:09.039 --> 02:02:12.199 my favorite moments from being on here. It's like top 2159 02:02:12.279 --> 02:02:14.760 three where like I remember saying audition and then watching 2160 02:02:14.840 --> 02:02:18.319 your face that it came out. He was not solf 2161 02:02:18.439 --> 02:02:18.880 at all. 2162 02:02:20.960 --> 02:02:23.920 I was not ready for that. I love the back 2163 02:02:23.960 --> 02:02:26.760 to back of these comments. Laife says I loved his 2164 02:02:26.880 --> 02:02:29.720 Masters of Horror episode, and then Adam says his Masters 2165 02:02:29.760 --> 02:02:35.520 of Horror section was horrible. Oh man, all right, so 2166 02:02:35.720 --> 02:02:38.600 that is over your dead body. That is coming. Like 2167 02:02:38.640 --> 02:02:41.039 I said on December fifteenth in the UK and then 2168 02:02:41.239 --> 02:02:43.680 December fifteenth in the UK, December sixteenth in the US, 2169 02:02:43.720 --> 02:02:47.119 Eight eight Films is doing Saga of the Phoenix. This 2170 02:02:47.479 --> 02:02:50.520 is a sequel to The Peacock King, which eight eight 2171 02:02:50.560 --> 02:02:53.720 Films is also releasing only in the UK for that one. 2172 02:02:53.800 --> 02:02:55.479 So I have a feeling somebody else has it here 2173 02:02:55.520 --> 02:02:57.479 in the US, and that'll probably be coming out soon. 2174 02:02:58.039 --> 02:02:59.880 This one has a commentary with Frank Jang and FJ 2175 02:03:00.079 --> 02:03:02.640 de Santo. We got an image gallery and then alternate 2176 02:03:02.760 --> 02:03:04.279 Japanese footage in this one. 2177 02:03:04.720 --> 02:03:04.920 Nice. 2178 02:03:05.560 --> 02:03:08.199 Yeah, I've never seen this one or The Peacock Ing. Actually, 2179 02:03:08.199 --> 02:03:10.560 I've been wanting to see The Peacock King for a while. Yeah. 2180 02:03:10.720 --> 02:03:13.199 Sorry, I've not seen either, but the Peacock King has 2181 02:03:13.239 --> 02:03:14.760 been on my watch list for a while. 2182 02:03:15.520 --> 02:03:17.840 Let's go through pretty quickly because we don't have all 2183 02:03:17.880 --> 02:03:19.760 the details on all of these, but Air forty four. 2184 02:03:19.920 --> 02:03:22.359 Forty four is putting a shit ton of stuff up 2185 02:03:22.399 --> 02:03:25.840 for pre order tomorrow. This will be available at one 2186 02:03:25.920 --> 02:03:31.119 pm Eastern, so you are looking at thirteen and a 2187 02:03:31.119 --> 02:03:34.920 half hours from now. These first few are going to 2188 02:03:34.960 --> 02:03:38.239 be very specific titles. And then we got some box 2189 02:03:38.239 --> 02:03:40.600 sets and stuff. So we got a Blu Ray coming 2190 02:03:40.680 --> 02:03:44.039 from them of Countdown from twenty twelve. This is a 2191 02:03:44.239 --> 02:03:47.800 tie thriller. You've got new artwork on this. You've got 2192 02:03:47.880 --> 02:03:50.239 a new booklet, new stickers that are coming with this 2193 02:03:50.680 --> 02:03:54.279 reversible artwork, Blu Ray sleeve. You've got this heavy duty 2194 02:03:54.319 --> 02:03:58.199 slip cover. You've got some promo videos and some other 2195 02:03:58.560 --> 02:04:01.319 like music videos and stuff like that. This thing is 2196 02:04:01.479 --> 02:04:06.039 thirty six bucks just for this film. Then the second 2197 02:04:06.119 --> 02:04:09.640 release is a release of Challenge of the Lady Ninja 2198 02:04:09.760 --> 02:04:12.880 from nineteen eighty three. This is one that they had 2199 02:04:12.920 --> 02:04:14.920 announced previously that they were doing. I'm glad this is 2200 02:04:14.960 --> 02:04:18.000 coming out finally. This is one I'm actually pretty interested in. 2201 02:04:19.199 --> 02:04:24.399 This one is from legendary Taiwanese martial arts filmmaker Liso Nam. 2202 02:04:25.279 --> 02:04:28.039 This is going to have a chip Board Collector's Edition 2203 02:04:28.119 --> 02:04:30.640 Blu Ray box set limited to fifteen hundred units with 2204 02:04:30.800 --> 02:04:34.159 new artwork, twenty page booklet with essays by Jessica Young 2205 02:04:34.239 --> 02:04:37.920 and Michelle Kisner, three new stickers, a double sided eighteen 2206 02:04:37.920 --> 02:04:41.319 by twenty four poster reversible art, and then a new 2207 02:04:41.399 --> 02:04:43.600 two K restoration, new interview with the director or new 2208 02:04:43.680 --> 02:04:47.479 intro by the director, new trailer compilation, a new audio 2209 02:04:47.520 --> 02:04:50.960 commentary by Justin d'clue and Dylan Chung, new audio commentary 2210 02:04:51.039 --> 02:04:54.439 by Kenneth Broson and Paul Fox, and this will be 2211 02:04:54.600 --> 02:04:59.479 region free. This one is forty six dollars, so a 2212 02:04:59.479 --> 02:05:04.560 little more pricey than that first one. And yeah, I'm 2213 02:05:04.600 --> 02:05:10.560 certainly interested in this one for sure. Then comes the 2214 02:05:10.640 --> 02:05:13.880 box sets. First up, we've got art of the Devil 2215 02:05:13.960 --> 02:05:15.800 one through three. These are from two thousand and four, 2216 02:05:15.880 --> 02:05:18.640 two thousand and five, and two thousand and eight. These 2217 02:05:18.680 --> 02:05:22.520 are buried in like tie black and white magic type 2218 02:05:22.680 --> 02:05:25.479 of films. You've got new art on here. You've got 2219 02:05:25.520 --> 02:05:28.479 three stickers, double sided poster, reversible sleeve. This one is 2220 02:05:28.520 --> 02:05:34.439 a hundred bucks. And we don't have everything, I don't think, 2221 02:05:34.640 --> 02:05:36.600 but we got some. So we've got new interviews with 2222 02:05:36.680 --> 02:05:41.199 the director new intro up. I think that might be 2223 02:05:41.239 --> 02:05:43.279 from the last release and they copied it onto this 2224 02:05:43.319 --> 02:05:45.319 announcement because I don't think those are supposed to be 2225 02:05:45.399 --> 02:05:49.800 on here. This release, though, is one that I'm looking 2226 02:05:49.840 --> 02:05:52.119 forward to. I was not going to get this one, 2227 02:05:52.560 --> 02:05:55.199 but I actually had a meeting today with Arna Venema, 2228 02:05:55.560 --> 02:05:57.640 and Arna told me about something that they did for 2229 02:05:57.720 --> 02:06:03.720 this box set and it sounds insane. So they are, uh, 2230 02:06:03.800 --> 02:06:07.279 they are gonna have a Siam black Magic video that 2231 02:06:07.399 --> 02:06:10.439 they did. There's a visual essay by Horrible Reviews. There's 2232 02:06:10.439 --> 02:06:15.039 an archival making of and a trailer. Yeah, these extras 2233 02:06:15.079 --> 02:06:16.720 that were listed here were from the past release and 2234 02:06:16.720 --> 02:06:20.880 they've now updated it, thankfully. But this this release looks 2235 02:06:21.159 --> 02:06:25.640 absolutely wild and uh, they're they're kind of under selling 2236 02:06:25.720 --> 02:06:28.680 what they got in that black Magic visual essay if 2237 02:06:29.439 --> 02:06:32.039 if you do watch it. Supposedly there's even a like 2238 02:06:32.359 --> 02:06:35.439 viewer Discretion as advised card that comes up just for 2239 02:06:35.560 --> 02:06:39.359 a visual essay, which is pretty crazy. Any of these 2240 02:06:39.439 --> 02:06:41.880 so far? Interesting? You this one. 2241 02:06:43.359 --> 02:06:46.199 Not one hundred dollars interesting, but interesting? 2242 02:06:48.439 --> 02:06:52.119 Yeah, this is this is a weird, weird box set. 2243 02:06:52.760 --> 02:06:54.960 But yeah, one hundred bucks for this for this full 2244 02:06:55.000 --> 02:06:59.399 box set three films, lots of extras, which is wild 2245 02:06:59.560 --> 02:07:02.840 considering the previous release that we just covered is forty 2246 02:07:02.880 --> 02:07:05.760 six bucks for one film and it's about the same 2247 02:07:05.840 --> 02:07:08.319 number of extras. Anyways, we'll talk about money in just 2248 02:07:08.359 --> 02:07:12.199 a minute, because that's still something to discuss. Then the 2249 02:07:12.279 --> 02:07:15.199 other thing they're doing is this box set, which is 2250 02:07:15.239 --> 02:07:19.079 one hundred and twenty dollars of the Nami collection, which 2251 02:07:19.199 --> 02:07:21.399 just came out recently from Third Window Films in the UK, 2252 02:07:22.079 --> 02:07:26.039 and this has essentially all the same films with possibly 2253 02:07:26.079 --> 02:07:28.800 some different extras. They've not even listed out all of 2254 02:07:28.840 --> 02:07:31.920 the extras on these, but this one is one hundred 2255 02:07:31.960 --> 02:07:35.800 and twenty bucks and it's four films, so it's a 2256 02:07:35.800 --> 02:07:38.920 little bit more. You are going to get the big 2257 02:07:39.039 --> 02:07:41.920 chipboard box set. You've got limited slip covers that fit 2258 02:07:42.000 --> 02:07:45.079 in the box set. You've got some art cards, you've 2259 02:07:45.079 --> 02:07:48.800 got double sided posters, booklet with two essays. But yeah, 2260 02:07:48.920 --> 02:07:55.319 one hundred and twenty bucks. And then their sub label 2261 02:07:55.359 --> 02:07:57.239 that we talked about last week, they are putting out 2262 02:07:57.239 --> 02:07:59.760 two front teeth. This is coming from their new line 2263 02:07:59.800 --> 02:08:03.520 called Phantom Transmission. This one is thirty bucks. It's coming 2264 02:08:03.600 --> 02:08:07.720 with three stickers, a double sided slip cover and a booklet. 2265 02:08:08.399 --> 02:08:10.800 This is a Christmas horror film from two thousand and 2266 02:08:10.840 --> 02:08:15.800 six that the the reviews on this look pretty abysmal. 2267 02:08:15.920 --> 02:08:19.239 I will say they need to get a new graphic designer. 2268 02:08:19.960 --> 02:08:21.359 You don't love it. A lot of people like the 2269 02:08:21.479 --> 02:08:22.800 art on the on all these this time. 2270 02:08:23.319 --> 02:08:25.520 No, the art's fine. I mean just for this like 2271 02:08:25.760 --> 02:08:27.159 release announcement. 2272 02:08:27.039 --> 02:08:29.960 Oh got it, like all the all the arrows and yeah, 2273 02:08:30.199 --> 02:08:34.680 I get it. Chasis, Yeah, it's a it's a little messy. 2274 02:08:34.800 --> 02:08:37.079 I don't know why they went with the like shrubbery 2275 02:08:37.199 --> 02:08:39.039 background of this one and like. 2276 02:08:39.119 --> 02:08:40.039 The blue shot of. 2277 02:08:42.319 --> 02:08:46.600 Okay, yeah, yeah, I get it. So if you want 2278 02:08:46.680 --> 02:08:52.239 all of them ten films, this is a three hundred 2279 02:08:52.279 --> 02:08:59.680 dollars bundle. Essentially, if you buy the full bundle, you're 2280 02:08:59.720 --> 02:09:02.720 getting that two front teeth film for free because it 2281 02:09:02.800 --> 02:09:07.079 saves you about thirty bucks. But three hundred dollars is 2282 02:09:07.439 --> 02:09:13.560 a lot for this full set. You you look constipated. 2283 02:09:16.479 --> 02:09:20.920 Pass Okay, so I pass. I get it. I'm not 2284 02:09:21.000 --> 02:09:22.680 going to stand up for them. I will say, I 2285 02:09:22.800 --> 02:09:26.800 love the air forty four forty four guys, but they 2286 02:09:27.000 --> 02:09:29.199 just had a lot of trouble getting three films sent 2287 02:09:29.319 --> 02:09:33.600 out that were on pre order for legitimately like eight months, 2288 02:09:34.720 --> 02:09:37.279 and to put ten films on pre order in one 2289 02:09:37.359 --> 02:09:45.880 day is this calling stretch would be really underselling it. 2290 02:09:47.239 --> 02:09:49.359 I would not have a lot of confidence buying this 2291 02:09:49.479 --> 02:09:51.680 whole bundle from them tomorrow thinking I would get these 2292 02:09:52.640 --> 02:09:56.399 before the end of the year. Obviously that seems nigh impossible, 2293 02:09:56.560 --> 02:09:58.600 especially because they've not even announced a ship date on 2294 02:09:58.680 --> 02:10:04.720 this yet, so that's kind of wild.

Actually, no, I take that back, 2365 02:14:06.520 --> 02:14:07.079 there's no point. 2366 02:14:08.000 --> 02:14:08.119 Uh. 2367 02:14:08.680 --> 02:14:09.359 Creep Show two. 2368 02:14:10.920 --> 02:14:13.479 Creep Show two is a masterpiece, I agree. 2369 02:14:13.520 --> 02:14:16.159 And Creep Show two I think that's pretty much the 2370 02:14:16.199 --> 02:14:19.520 only thing here that really grabs me. 2371 02:14:20.960 --> 02:14:24.000 Gary is asking what is King Kung Fu? We talked 2372 02:14:24.000 --> 02:14:25.680 about that on the show a couple of weeks ago. 2373 02:14:25.760 --> 02:14:29.079 But this thing sounds amazing if you've never heard of it. 2374 02:14:29.239 --> 02:14:33.319 It says a remote monastery in China has trained a 2375 02:14:33.560 --> 02:14:38.279 talking gorilla, yes, a talking gorilla called King kung Fu 2376 02:14:38.680 --> 02:14:41.319 in the ancient art of kung Fu. Having mastered as 2377 02:14:41.399 --> 02:14:43.479 fighting seals, King Kung Fu is sent to America to 2378 02:14:43.560 --> 02:14:45.960 demonstrate the power of Chinese martial arts to the West. 2379 02:14:46.239 --> 02:14:49.199 As he's traveling through Kansas, a pair of bumbling reporters 2380 02:14:50.000 --> 02:14:53.159 sees KKF King Kung Fu and decides he can be 2381 02:14:53.199 --> 02:14:55.319 their ticket to fame and wealth. Of course, the gorilla 2382 02:14:55.399 --> 02:14:58.000 gets away from them, and soon everyone is chasing the 2383 02:14:58.319 --> 02:14:59.680 shaolin simion. 2384 02:15:00.640 --> 02:15:05.239 Okay, I take it back. I'm interested in that in 2385 02:15:05.319 --> 02:15:06.000 Creepshaw too. 2386 02:15:06.680 --> 02:15:07.800 It sounds like a fun release. 2387 02:15:07.920 --> 02:15:08.920 Yeah, that sounds amazing. 2388 02:15:09.479 --> 02:15:15.319 Yeah, yeah, that is it for announcements. So now we 2389 02:15:15.479 --> 02:15:18.840 get to talk a big thing tonight, Denzel. Oh my god. 2390 02:15:19.600 --> 02:15:21.840 And we've only been two hours and fifteen minutes already, 2391 02:15:21.840 --> 02:15:24.119 so now it's gonna be a late night. So tell 2392 02:15:24.199 --> 02:15:26.079 us about Denzel. Why Why is he? Why is he 2393 02:15:26.159 --> 02:15:26.640 one of the best? 2394 02:15:27.199 --> 02:15:32.600 Uh? Because he is. I have a video about that 2395 02:15:32.760 --> 02:15:35.239 exact topic, and I don't remember a single thing I 2396 02:15:35.359 --> 02:15:38.880 said in it, but I'm sure it's more articulate than 2397 02:15:38.920 --> 02:15:43.520 I'm going to be now. But I just think just 2398 02:15:43.840 --> 02:15:49.520 pure screen presence. He blends into any type of role. 2399 02:15:49.560 --> 02:15:52.479 There's like this weird thing I've heard lately where people 2400 02:15:52.640 --> 02:15:55.520 just say, like, Denzel just plays Denzel in movies, and 2401 02:15:55.600 --> 02:15:57.840 I think that is just such a fucking bizarre thing 2402 02:15:57.960 --> 02:16:01.520 to say about someone like Denzel, who has like such 2403 02:16:01.640 --> 02:16:05.079 a vast career of different types of roles, different types 2404 02:16:05.119 --> 02:16:08.000 of movies. You know, he's known as a leading man, 2405 02:16:08.079 --> 02:16:11.000 but he plays secondary very very well, and even when 2406 02:16:11.079 --> 02:16:14.359 he is a supporting actor, he steals the show completely. 2407 02:16:15.119 --> 02:16:18.840 He has like a theatrical presence to him. I mean 2408 02:16:18.960 --> 02:16:20.800 he's always said, like an interviews and stuff, you know, 2409 02:16:20.920 --> 02:16:24.199 he feels like he's a stage actor, not a film actor, 2410 02:16:24.720 --> 02:16:26.920 because like the stage is an actors medium, where his 2411 02:16:27.000 --> 02:16:32.000 film is a director's medium. But he brings that like 2412 02:16:32.639 --> 02:16:37.360 theatricality to his movies. A lot of the times when 2413 02:16:37.399 --> 02:16:39.840 he's performing, it feels like he's on the stage. He 2414 02:16:39.959 --> 02:16:43.600 feels like there's an audience there, and you feel like 2415 02:16:43.760 --> 02:16:46.159 you're watching someone on stage, like you are just so 2416 02:16:46.399 --> 02:16:49.360 captured by the performance in that moment that you kind 2417 02:16:49.360 --> 02:16:54.280 of forget you're watching a movie. And yeah, there is 2418 02:16:54.399 --> 02:16:57.520 not a single actor like him. I don't like in 2419 02:16:57.719 --> 02:17:00.680 half of the things that Denzel Washington and does. I 2420 02:17:00.760 --> 02:17:02.920 don't think he could be replaced by a different actor 2421 02:17:03.440 --> 02:17:05.000 and do anywhere near as well. 2422 02:17:06.559 --> 02:17:08.799 I mean, I don't think I could argue with that 2423 02:17:08.920 --> 02:17:11.680 at all. He absolutely owns every single role that he's in. 2424 02:17:12.479 --> 02:17:15.040 He is He's one of those people that are like 2425 02:17:15.200 --> 02:17:19.479 the last of the Capital Ms movie stars. Yeah, he 2426 02:17:19.879 --> 02:17:22.200 is up there with the Tom Cruise and the Brad 2427 02:17:22.280 --> 02:17:26.680 Pitts and the Leo DiCaprio's and that's in that realm. 2428 02:17:26.799 --> 02:17:30.319 That's probably it, like literally those four people right now. Yeah. 2429 02:17:30.719 --> 02:17:33.840 The thing is like because whenever I say Denzel's the great, 2430 02:17:33.879 --> 02:17:36.639 these people always like chuck someone else out in there. 2431 02:17:37.079 --> 02:17:39.159 You know, someone always chuck out, like a Daniel day 2432 02:17:39.239 --> 02:17:43.680 Lewis or Leonardo DiCaprio, Robert Niro, Alpatuna. People love throwing 2433 02:17:43.799 --> 02:17:47.319 like these people out. But like there are times where 2434 02:17:47.360 --> 02:17:50.200 I watch any of them in a movie and I 2435 02:17:50.360 --> 02:17:52.719 know that there is someone else that could be in 2436 02:17:52.799 --> 02:17:56.680 this movie instead, where like they might not have done 2437 02:17:56.879 --> 02:17:59.319 quite as good a job. Maybe like say Daniel day 2438 02:17:59.360 --> 02:18:03.040 Lewis and will be Blood, But Daniel day Lewis and 2439 02:18:03.120 --> 02:18:05.879 that will be Blood is not the only actor that 2440 02:18:05.959 --> 02:18:08.799 could have accomplished that role, right Whereas like I feel 2441 02:18:08.840 --> 02:18:12.200 like a lot of the times someone else could have 2442 02:18:12.239 --> 02:18:15.280 stepped in for Denzel in some of these roles, but 2443 02:18:15.440 --> 02:18:20.040 the quality drops significantly, you know, like if you have 2444 02:18:21.399 --> 02:18:26.920 Malcolm X, and Malcolm X, you know is replaced like 2445 02:18:27.239 --> 02:18:30.760 DENZAO for someone else. You know around that time, that 2446 02:18:30.920 --> 02:18:34.079 movie is nowhere near as good as it is nowhere near. 2447 02:18:34.719 --> 02:18:37.520 And yeah, I feel like that's the same for a 2448 02:18:37.600 --> 02:18:38.520 lot of the stuff that he's in. 2449 02:18:39.600 --> 02:18:44.799 Yeah, he is great in pretty much everything. We were 2450 02:18:44.840 --> 02:18:48.760 talking this, talking about this before we went live. But 2451 02:18:50.639 --> 02:18:54.000 he is one of those people that roughly around like 2452 02:18:54.079 --> 02:18:57.079 the early nineties, he hit that point where he could 2453 02:18:57.159 --> 02:18:59.040 just make choices on what he was going to be 2454 02:18:59.120 --> 02:19:04.440 in and he has had that the entire time. And 2455 02:19:04.600 --> 02:19:08.639 based on that, he is now not making as many decisions. 2456 02:19:08.840 --> 02:19:11.159 He has made his money. He gets to continue to 2457 02:19:12.360 --> 02:19:14.520 make the choices that he wants to make, rather than 2458 02:19:14.559 --> 02:19:17.360 feeling like he has to make them. And based on that, 2459 02:19:17.600 --> 02:19:21.159 he's in a lot less things nowadays, and honestly, probably 2460 02:19:21.239 --> 02:19:24.079 not a bad thing. I wish some other people would 2461 02:19:24.120 --> 02:19:25.360 make that same choice. 2462 02:19:25.799 --> 02:19:28.360 I know he does a lot of stage stuff now, 2463 02:19:28.920 --> 02:19:33.200 like he stays on broad like doing Othello and stuff 2464 02:19:33.280 --> 02:19:36.239 like that. He loves doing Shakespeare, so that's where he 2465 02:19:36.399 --> 02:19:41.000 is like generally. But yeah, it's kind of crazy. But 2466 02:19:41.079 --> 02:19:44.239 I think that kind of kind of came about because 2467 02:19:45.280 --> 02:19:48.159 I think people quickly realize that, no matter the quality 2468 02:19:48.239 --> 02:19:51.559 of the movie itself, if Denzel is in the movie, 2469 02:19:52.600 --> 02:19:55.879 there is always something to grab onto. I have seen 2470 02:19:55.959 --> 02:19:59.399 all fifty six of this man's work, all fifty six 2471 02:19:59.559 --> 02:20:03.120 and can tell you, even in the abysmal movies, he 2472 02:20:03.440 --> 02:20:06.840 is doing a great job. I don't I don't think 2473 02:20:06.840 --> 02:20:11.319 there's a single Denzel movie where he does not deliver impeccably. 2474 02:20:12.239 --> 02:20:16.840 And that's something that like producers and stuff can hang 2475 02:20:16.920 --> 02:20:19.840 on to because it's like if your movie's coming out 2476 02:20:19.840 --> 02:20:22.760 and you you know, as a producer or a director 2477 02:20:22.840 --> 02:20:25.680 or whatever, that is maybe not the best thing. If 2478 02:20:25.760 --> 02:20:27.879 you know Denzel's in it, you know you have at 2479 02:20:27.959 --> 02:20:31.360 least one thing an audience is going to hook onto. Yeah, 2480 02:20:31.959 --> 02:20:34.680 so that very early on allows him to make so 2481 02:20:34.840 --> 02:20:38.159 many decisions about like what he's on, what he you know, 2482 02:20:38.559 --> 02:20:42.040 what he's in he was in obviously he's in training day, 2483 02:20:42.680 --> 02:20:45.239 but there was a he had the Pull at that 2484 02:20:45.399 --> 02:20:48.680 time to change the director he came in and the 2485 02:20:48.760 --> 02:20:51.440 original I can't remember who was said to direct it, 2486 02:20:51.520 --> 02:20:53.799 but he basically just was like I want Antoine food 2487 02:20:53.840 --> 02:20:56.399 Quad to direct this, and there was like okay, and 2488 02:20:56.520 --> 02:21:01.760 they just brought in Anton Fuqua instead. So, yeah, insane 2489 02:21:02.040 --> 02:21:03.040 amount of Pull. 2490 02:21:04.840 --> 02:21:09.440 Fifty six films. You've seen them all. You just mentioned abysmal. Obviously, 2491 02:21:09.520 --> 02:21:11.680 we're not gonna be talking about the abysmal films tonight. 2492 02:21:11.760 --> 02:21:14.280 Are there a couple that you think that you could 2493 02:21:14.360 --> 02:21:17.079 name that are just truly bad movies even though he 2494 02:21:17.159 --> 02:21:20.879 may not be bad in them? Yes, which ones? Let's 2495 02:21:20.920 --> 02:21:21.079 hear it? 2496 02:21:21.479 --> 02:21:28.360 Carbon Copy? It is atrocious. It's the worst film he's 2497 02:21:28.479 --> 02:21:32.639 ever been and it's terrible. It's about this wealthy white 2498 02:21:32.680 --> 02:21:36.440 guy who finds out that he has a black son 2499 02:21:37.760 --> 02:21:41.959 and it destroys his life and he ends up having 2500 02:21:42.000 --> 02:21:47.040 to go and live in the ghetto. Yeah, so that's terrible. 2501 02:21:47.840 --> 02:21:50.920 There's for Queen and Country where he does a British 2502 02:21:50.959 --> 02:21:55.200 accent and it's not good. Yeah, it's not a good accent. 2503 02:21:55.239 --> 02:21:59.440 It's a good performance, but that the accent's rough, So 2504 02:21:59.680 --> 02:22:04.680 that's not great at all. Yeah, virtuosity is not very 2505 02:22:04.719 --> 02:22:09.120 good either in concept, it should be great, should be amazing, 2506 02:22:09.239 --> 02:22:11.959 even you know, Russell Crowe. Denzel in like a weird 2507 02:22:12.120 --> 02:22:16.440 futuristic like sci fi movie, but it's it, it's fine. 2508 02:22:17.639 --> 02:22:20.399 And then he's in like a bunch of TV movies, right. 2509 02:22:21.079 --> 02:22:23.799 So there's like Wilma, which is his first movie from 2510 02:22:23.920 --> 02:22:28.360 seventy seven, which you can only see on like YouTube 2511 02:22:28.520 --> 02:22:33.840 in one four p but I did it and he's 2512 02:22:33.879 --> 02:22:35.520 only in it for like five minutes as well, so 2513 02:22:35.600 --> 02:22:39.920 that's great. Flesh and Blood, which is like a four 2514 02:22:40.040 --> 02:22:45.000 hour TV movie about a boxer who's in an incestuous 2515 02:22:45.040 --> 02:22:49.200 relationship with his mother. It stars Tom Berenger and the 2516 02:22:49.239 --> 02:22:53.639 supporting has Denzel and John Casavedi's and it's not great. 2517 02:22:55.920 --> 02:22:58.399 And yeah, there's a bunch more. There's like Heart oh right, yeah, 2518 02:22:58.559 --> 02:23:03.120 Heart Condition as well. Heart Condition is not great. It 2519 02:23:03.239 --> 02:23:08.000 has Bob Hoskins who's a racist and he hates Denzel Washington. 2520 02:23:08.719 --> 02:23:12.959 But Denzel dies and Denzel for some reason is stuck 2521 02:23:13.360 --> 02:23:17.120 like as a ghost that haunts Bob Hoskins who's racist 2522 02:23:17.200 --> 02:23:22.040 the whole time. It's not it's a weird fucking movie anyway. Yeah, 2523 02:23:22.360 --> 02:23:24.600 there's a bunch but like he's still great in pretty 2524 02:23:24.680 --> 02:23:25.719 much all of them. So there's that. 2525 02:23:26.879 --> 02:23:29.159 So tonight we're going to be going back and forth, 2526 02:23:29.639 --> 02:23:34.399 ranking one through ten, discussing these. We didn't discuss this beforehand. 2527 02:23:34.440 --> 02:23:36.120 Do you want to do it if the other person 2528 02:23:36.200 --> 02:23:37.399 has it up higher? Do you want to wait and 2529 02:23:37.520 --> 02:23:39.040 have us both talk about it then, or do you 2530 02:23:39.079 --> 02:23:41.280 want to discuss at each of our places? 2531 02:23:42.639 --> 02:23:43.159 I don't mind. 2532 02:23:44.079 --> 02:23:46.319 All right, well, let's hear your number ten first. We're 2533 02:23:46.319 --> 02:23:49.079 gonna go through this and again, just to warn everybody, 2534 02:23:49.159 --> 02:23:51.040 Krit and I like to break these down when we 2535 02:23:51.120 --> 02:23:54.079 do this, so good luck, be along for the ride, 2536 02:23:54.200 --> 02:23:54.799 and here we go. 2537 02:23:54.959 --> 02:23:55.840 I'll behave. 2538 02:23:58.760 --> 02:23:58.879 Right. 2539 02:23:59.079 --> 02:24:01.600 So I have the physical releases for the ones that 2540 02:24:01.680 --> 02:24:04.639 I have, and at my number ten, I do have 2541 02:24:04.719 --> 02:24:08.639 a physical release for it is Man on Fire, directed 2542 02:24:08.680 --> 02:24:13.760 by Tony Scott. Okay, every film in my top ten, 2543 02:24:13.799 --> 02:24:16.559 by the way, is a ten out of ten. I 2544 02:24:16.719 --> 02:24:19.280 have all of these at five stars. They're all perfect movies. 2545 02:24:20.079 --> 02:24:22.719 So in other words, this was very difficult for Krit 2546 02:24:22.799 --> 02:24:22.959 to do. 2547 02:24:23.239 --> 02:24:28.680 This was so upsetting because like even at like in 2548 02:24:28.799 --> 02:24:33.239 my ranking at twenty twenty is like a nine out 2549 02:24:33.280 --> 02:24:37.000 of ten. Jeez, so like my twenty of his cry 2550 02:24:37.120 --> 02:24:38.520 Freedom like it's so. 2551 02:24:38.799 --> 02:24:40.799 And we're splitting hairs at that point. Yeah. 2552 02:24:41.239 --> 02:24:46.120 So yeah, at ten is Man on Fire Tony Scott, 2553 02:24:47.040 --> 02:24:50.200 have you seen the rotten tomatoes for this movie? 2554 02:24:51.040 --> 02:24:52.879 No? Oh, are you about to upset me? 2555 02:24:53.639 --> 02:24:54.239 Have a guess? 2556 02:24:56.000 --> 02:24:58.479 Uh with you saying that it's probably lower than I 2557 02:24:58.600 --> 02:25:05.479 was expecting. So I'm gonna say, like fifty eight thirty nine, ah, 2558 02:25:06.520 --> 02:25:09.639 thirty nine, see, and it should be like an eighty two. 2559 02:25:10.799 --> 02:25:13.319 Right, Ryan's right, by the way, he Hoskins does get 2560 02:25:13.319 --> 02:25:16.799 the heart transplant from Denzel that's correct. Yeah, it's been 2561 02:25:16.799 --> 02:25:22.600 a while since to watch Heart Condition. Oh dude, watch 2562 02:25:23.040 --> 02:25:27.760 watch Man on Fire. Yeah, thirty nine percent is outrageous 2563 02:25:27.920 --> 02:25:32.840 for a Tony Scott movie. That is everything Tony Scott. 2564 02:25:33.159 --> 02:25:37.719 It has like the sweaty kind of schizophrenic editing. The 2565 02:25:38.440 --> 02:25:43.319 the color palette for it is very burnt orange. And yeah, 2566 02:25:43.360 --> 02:25:47.040 it's it's a remake first of all. In turn of 2567 02:25:47.079 --> 02:25:49.959 Scott did a few of those, like two thousands, like remake. 2568 02:25:49.959 --> 02:25:51.600 He did like the Taking a Palm one two three 2569 02:25:51.680 --> 02:25:54.600 as well with Denzel, which I also really like. It's 2570 02:25:54.639 --> 02:25:56.680 not in my top ten, but I also really like 2571 02:25:56.760 --> 02:25:58.319 that movie. Just to put it out there. 2572 02:26:00.000 --> 02:26:00.239 Also. 2573 02:26:00.559 --> 02:26:02.840 Strangely, I think that is one of the only movies 2574 02:26:02.879 --> 02:26:07.799 where I think someone out acted Denzel. I think Travolta 2575 02:26:07.920 --> 02:26:10.920 in The Taking Appellan one two three is so wonderful. 2576 02:26:11.639 --> 02:26:14.799 He is like out of his fucking mind in that movie. 2577 02:26:15.680 --> 02:26:19.000 That like, I think he got it more than Denzel 2578 02:26:19.079 --> 02:26:25.280 got it. Like anyway, he's great with Dakota Fanning is 2579 02:26:25.479 --> 02:26:28.479 like so good in that movie. It is Dakota, right, 2580 02:26:28.600 --> 02:26:32.200 not Elle. I think it's Dakota. Yeah, it is Dakota. Yeah, 2581 02:26:32.680 --> 02:26:34.760 I always get the mixed up on my fiance. I 2582 02:26:34.799 --> 02:26:35.680 guess really upset at me. 2583 02:26:37.360 --> 02:26:37.559 Yeah. 2584 02:26:38.079 --> 02:26:42.760 She is such a wonderful child actor. And yeah, her 2585 02:26:42.920 --> 02:26:46.639 performance in this is so heartbreaking. If people don't know 2586 02:26:46.680 --> 02:26:50.479 what it's about, It's about Denzel who's a drunk, which 2587 02:26:50.559 --> 02:26:55.760 he plays a lot, and he's a bodyguard for a 2588 02:26:55.840 --> 02:26:57.879 little girl who gets kidnapped and he goes on like 2589 02:26:57.920 --> 02:27:01.799 a revenge quest to get her back. It's like John Wick, 2590 02:27:01.879 --> 02:27:07.799 but better. It's got Christopher walk in it. Mickey Rourke 2591 02:27:07.879 --> 02:27:10.200 when like Mickey Rourke was like an actual good actor, 2592 02:27:12.159 --> 02:27:16.479 better looking too far better looking. Yeah, and yeah, it's 2593 02:27:16.639 --> 02:27:21.200 it's just a wonderful time. The action is top tier. 2594 02:27:21.319 --> 02:27:27.319 It's Tony Scott. Like everyone mentions because Denzel has a 2595 02:27:27.360 --> 02:27:29.799 really good relationship with a lot of directors like Antoine 2596 02:27:29.799 --> 02:27:33.079 Fuqua and and stuff like that. But everyone mentioned Spike 2597 02:27:33.200 --> 02:27:36.479 Lee like Spike Lee and Denzel a like the Crowning Two. 2598 02:27:36.559 --> 02:27:39.440 But I think Tony Scott and Denzel were like a 2599 02:27:39.559 --> 02:27:44.440 much better pair. I think that the Spike Lee one 2600 02:27:44.520 --> 02:27:47.440 has like higher highs but much lower lowers, Whereas I 2601 02:27:47.479 --> 02:27:51.239 think Tony Scott and Denzel like consistently hit very very 2602 02:27:51.440 --> 02:27:56.479 like strong but rating movies, not Denzel's performances, but they 2603 02:27:56.600 --> 02:28:01.920 sometimes got a hand in hand. Yeah, but Manifire excellent movie. 2604 02:28:03.159 --> 02:28:05.280 It is excellent, which is why I'll be talking about 2605 02:28:05.280 --> 02:28:08.680 it later. But yeah, it's very good. My number ten, 2606 02:28:09.000 --> 02:28:10.840 speaking of, I'm just gonna go right into it because 2607 02:28:10.879 --> 02:28:12.719 of what you just said is a Spike Lee film 2608 02:28:13.280 --> 02:28:17.680 that tends to get forgotten a lot, and so I 2609 02:28:17.760 --> 02:28:19.479 got to bring up Inside Man here. 2610 02:28:20.639 --> 02:28:22.159 He was just gonna say like he got game or 2611 02:28:22.200 --> 02:28:22.719 something else. 2612 02:28:24.360 --> 02:28:27.920 No Inside Man gets overlooked as not like top tier 2613 02:28:28.120 --> 02:28:33.079 Denzil not top tier, Spike Lee, not top tier anybody, which, 2614 02:28:33.159 --> 02:28:35.920 by the way, cast in this is great even like 2615 02:28:36.280 --> 02:28:39.440 James Ranson is in this, but Christopher fucking Blummer, Clive Owen, 2616 02:28:39.959 --> 02:28:42.200 Willem Dafoe's in this, Jonny Foster is in this, ye, 2617 02:28:42.440 --> 02:28:44.760 so it's oh yeah, she would tell ed you for 2618 02:28:44.879 --> 02:28:48.520 us so good. In this, Denzel plays a detective another thing. 2619 02:28:48.600 --> 02:28:52.360 He plays a lot, and he is magnificent in this. 2620 02:28:52.600 --> 02:28:55.360 And essentially, if you've never seen it, it is a 2621 02:28:55.479 --> 02:28:59.120 bank robbery heist gone wrong turns into a hostage situation 2622 02:28:59.479 --> 02:29:03.159 and then Denzel has to be one of the negotiators, 2623 02:29:03.680 --> 02:29:07.319 and it is It's a movie that really could have 2624 02:29:08.920 --> 02:29:12.520 fallen apart into like a I don't know, like a 2625 02:29:13.280 --> 02:29:18.159 wanna be like go with the super cliche ending type 2626 02:29:18.159 --> 02:29:21.920 of film. But instead this was brilliantly written to just 2627 02:29:22.000 --> 02:29:25.360 sort of pepper along the whole story the entire way 2628 02:29:25.440 --> 02:29:28.000 instead of like a big twist reveal and have you 2629 02:29:28.200 --> 02:29:30.799 like lose everything out of the sales. But this movie 2630 02:29:31.639 --> 02:29:36.239 is just great. It's written like perfectly balanced. It's kind 2631 02:29:36.280 --> 02:29:37.760 of a weird thing to say, but and I don't 2632 02:29:37.760 --> 02:29:39.120 want to give away too much of this movie because 2633 02:29:39.159 --> 02:29:40.600 it's very good to see if you've ever seen it. 2634 02:29:41.639 --> 02:29:46.079 Spike Lee really good director for this, but because it's 2635 02:29:46.159 --> 02:29:49.159 not his typical thing. I think people just forget that 2636 02:29:49.239 --> 02:29:52.680 it's Spike a lot of the time. Yeah, but yeah, 2637 02:29:52.760 --> 02:29:56.200 Denzel fantastic in this whole story of this is great, 2638 02:29:57.319 --> 02:30:01.239 very tense movie, certainly one that so you you can 2639 02:30:01.399 --> 02:30:05.399 quickly get lost in love this movie, love love the cash. 2640 02:30:05.479 --> 02:30:08.000 Like I said, yeah, inside Man, number ten. 2641 02:30:08.319 --> 02:30:12.399 I have that at seventeen. Oh geez, I know, but 2642 02:30:12.559 --> 02:30:14.520 like I said, like number twenty is like a nine 2643 02:30:14.559 --> 02:30:18.559 out of ten, right, Like the gap between seventeen and 2644 02:30:18.680 --> 02:30:21.000 like eleven is very minuscule. 2645 02:30:20.879 --> 02:30:25.040 Right, So yeah, good to know. Good to know. Number 2646 02:30:25.120 --> 02:30:25.600 nine for you. 2647 02:30:26.200 --> 02:30:28.559 Number nine is another one I own. I have a 2648 02:30:28.680 --> 02:30:33.000 video on this one actually as well, which is Mississippi Massala. 2649 02:30:34.200 --> 02:30:35.360 It's my number nine as well. 2650 02:30:35.479 --> 02:30:41.920 This is amazing, brilliant then, yeah, Mississippi Massala is so fantastic. 2651 02:30:43.159 --> 02:30:46.760 I think the way like it handles everything that I 2652 02:30:46.840 --> 02:30:50.559 mentioned in my video really like racial tensions, but not 2653 02:30:50.680 --> 02:30:53.440 just racial tensions between like the obvious groups of like 2654 02:30:53.639 --> 02:30:58.959 white and minority, but within minority communities, like within the 2655 02:30:59.000 --> 02:31:03.200 black community, how they see you know, other like Asian people, 2656 02:31:03.280 --> 02:31:05.639 and how Asian people see black people, and in these 2657 02:31:05.760 --> 02:31:09.440 like lower economic communities, as well, you know, how like 2658 02:31:09.520 --> 02:31:12.959 everything's kind of pitted against each other when really you 2659 02:31:13.120 --> 02:31:16.280 are one and the same, you know, and like kind 2660 02:31:16.319 --> 02:31:19.600 of the cycle of how like that stuff is bred 2661 02:31:19.719 --> 02:31:23.120 into you as well from children and stuff like that. Yeah, 2662 02:31:24.040 --> 02:31:28.399 it's a beautifully made movie. I think Denzel should have 2663 02:31:28.440 --> 02:31:30.639 done a lot more rom coms in this time. Yeah 2664 02:31:32.360 --> 02:31:34.440 it's not a roum comas like a romance movie rather, 2665 02:31:34.520 --> 02:31:41.440 but yeah, he's such a good romantic lead. And I 2666 02:31:41.639 --> 02:31:47.159 think him and Soreta are like maybe the most gorgeous 2667 02:31:47.239 --> 02:31:50.239 couple in a romance movie ever. They are like just 2668 02:31:50.440 --> 02:31:53.040 two of the most beautiful people. And there's like this 2669 02:31:53.239 --> 02:31:56.479 one scene where they're like walking on the beach and 2670 02:31:56.559 --> 02:31:58.639 they're just talking to each other, and I remember watching 2671 02:31:58.639 --> 02:32:00.200 it for the first time going like, this is like 2672 02:32:00.280 --> 02:32:03.719 the most beautiful thing ever put to a string. It's 2673 02:32:03.799 --> 02:32:06.120 like two ten out of ten people just walking on 2674 02:32:06.200 --> 02:32:09.639 the sunniest beach, like just talking about love. It's beautiful. 2675 02:32:11.399 --> 02:32:14.239 So on that note, this might be the movie where 2676 02:32:14.559 --> 02:32:17.079 I had to question did I just fall in love 2677 02:32:17.120 --> 02:32:23.280 with Denzel Washington? He oozes charisma from every single scene 2678 02:32:23.399 --> 02:32:28.360 in this movie. He is magnificent in this He is magnetic, Like, 2679 02:32:28.639 --> 02:32:30.799 I feel like everybody in this movie is attracted to 2680 02:32:30.879 --> 02:32:33.719 him in so many different ways. But the crazy thing 2681 02:32:34.360 --> 02:32:39.479 that gets kind of like brushed under the rug. I 2682 02:32:39.520 --> 02:32:42.760 guess when discussing this is specifically where you're talking about 2683 02:32:42.760 --> 02:32:46.360 with the minority groups, because this isn't just hey, we're 2684 02:32:46.399 --> 02:32:49.879 in Mississippi and the white people think black people are bad, 2685 02:32:50.079 --> 02:32:55.319 like this is true African American diaspora. This is Indian 2686 02:32:56.000 --> 02:32:59.920 ethnic groups. This is mixing of ethnic groups and people 2687 02:33:00.040 --> 02:33:03.040 that don't agree with that and how that changes tensions 2688 02:33:03.120 --> 02:33:06.399 and stuff. This movie is beautiful in so many different ways, 2689 02:33:06.639 --> 02:33:10.879 and I completely agree he should have done another, I 2690 02:33:10.920 --> 02:33:13.920 don't know, eight movies like this in the two years 2691 02:33:14.000 --> 02:33:18.079 following this. However, he probably thought that was enough and 2692 02:33:18.959 --> 02:33:22.719 just made his choices to do better. But yeah, this 2693 02:33:22.959 --> 02:33:25.399 is one that gets sorely overlooked. Has a really wonderful 2694 02:33:25.440 --> 02:33:30.319 criterion release, beautiful film, wonderfully directed, and some really great 2695 02:33:30.920 --> 02:33:34.239 like vistas like the classic use of the word the 2696 02:33:34.319 --> 02:33:38.079 way they get landscapes in this movie feel so special. 2697 02:33:38.280 --> 02:33:42.159 It feels very what's the best way to say this, Like, 2698 02:33:42.239 --> 02:33:44.719 I feel like it feels like film in the nineties, 2699 02:33:44.799 --> 02:33:49.399 but not like of the nineties. Yeahthing, there's something special 2700 02:33:49.600 --> 02:33:52.559 about how we went on scene in the nineties to 2701 02:33:52.639 --> 02:33:54.799 go film things right before we went to the green 2702 02:33:54.840 --> 02:33:57.959 screen of everything, like things got actual budgets and they said, no, 2703 02:33:58.120 --> 02:34:02.120 we're setting a camera up and we're getting this sunset specifically, 2704 02:34:02.520 --> 02:34:06.399 and it's gorgeous in this movie. Yeah, check out Miss 2705 02:34:06.440 --> 02:34:09.319 Sibby Massala. You need to see it if you haven't. 2706 02:34:09.559 --> 02:34:12.239 It's so good. And on the topic of like Denzel 2707 02:34:12.280 --> 02:34:17.159 should have done more, like more romance stuff. It's quite 2708 02:34:17.239 --> 02:34:21.600 funny because, like you know, Denzel's whole career, people have 2709 02:34:21.799 --> 02:34:25.559 like formed over Denzel. He's like very well known as 2710 02:34:25.600 --> 02:34:29.200 a very handsome man. He's like people love, you know. 2711 02:34:29.399 --> 02:34:32.639 I remember women like when I was growing up would 2712 02:34:32.680 --> 02:34:36.719 watch Denzel movies just to see Denzel. They didn't care 2713 02:34:36.760 --> 02:34:38.719 about the movie or anything like that. So he's like 2714 02:34:38.840 --> 02:34:41.799 such an obvious pick for a romantic lead. He has 2715 02:34:41.840 --> 02:34:45.040 so much charisma, he's so very like good looking, but 2716 02:34:45.159 --> 02:34:48.319 he just never really ventured into that genre, which I 2717 02:34:48.479 --> 02:34:49.799 find quite interesting. 2718 02:34:50.440 --> 02:34:56.280 Yeah, should point out directed by Myra Nair, that is 2719 02:34:56.319 --> 02:34:59.639 the director. Criterion releasing Salam Bombay her first film in December, 2720 02:35:00.120 --> 02:35:03.239 and she's also the mother of the current New York 2721 02:35:03.319 --> 02:35:07.440 City mayoral candidates, or on mom Donnie, who should hopefully 2722 02:35:07.479 --> 02:35:08.760 be winning in a landslide. 2723 02:35:09.680 --> 02:35:13.200 Yeah, yeah, it's pretty to go and say that and 2724 02:35:13.280 --> 02:35:15.520 see my video on it is not what he did. 2725 02:35:16.559 --> 02:35:19.440 Number eight. You want me to share mine first? Do 2726 02:35:19.440 --> 02:35:20.760 you want to keep going on here? Since we had 2727 02:35:20.760 --> 02:35:24.559 the same one? So my number eight is one of 2728 02:35:24.959 --> 02:35:28.760 the first forced upon me Denzel movies to watch that 2729 02:35:28.920 --> 02:35:31.399 I did not like it first, and I learned to 2730 02:35:31.440 --> 02:35:34.639 love later after watching it three more times. I think 2731 02:35:34.799 --> 02:35:36.719 by that face, you probably know exactly what it is. 2732 02:35:37.040 --> 02:35:40.639 I was forced to watch Glory in school and this 2733 02:35:40.799 --> 02:35:45.159 movie is amazing. Glory is yet another one of these 2734 02:35:45.239 --> 02:35:50.440 movies that has just a shockingly great cast. Nineteen eighty 2735 02:35:50.520 --> 02:35:54.040 nine directed by Edwardswick and we got Matthew Broderick in this, 2736 02:35:54.280 --> 02:35:58.520 Carrie Elwis but maybe more important, Morgan Freeman is so 2737 02:35:58.719 --> 02:36:03.040 good in this. Andre Brower is great in this. Just 2738 02:36:03.120 --> 02:36:06.239 a bunch of like random care tractors like Richard reel 2739 02:36:06.399 --> 02:36:08.639 is in this. You'll you'll recognize his face from all 2740 02:36:08.760 --> 02:36:11.120 kinds of shit that you've seen and loved. But this 2741 02:36:11.440 --> 02:36:14.760 is about a Civil War volunteer company that's all black. 2742 02:36:15.559 --> 02:36:20.360 They're fighting against the Union or sorry, fighting as the 2743 02:36:20.479 --> 02:36:24.719 Union against the Confederates, and there's of course racial problems 2744 02:36:24.799 --> 02:36:28.399 everywhere because the it's an all black volunteer group and 2745 02:36:28.559 --> 02:36:32.159 it's the Civil War, so it is like the overarching 2746 02:36:32.239 --> 02:36:37.000 tension in this entire movie. This movie rules and does 2747 02:36:37.120 --> 02:36:40.120 not get discussed enough in twenty twenty five. The four 2748 02:36:40.200 --> 02:36:42.159 K looks really great. By the way, Sony released that 2749 02:36:42.239 --> 02:36:46.760 a few years ago. Morgan Freeman in this is I 2750 02:36:46.840 --> 02:36:49.399 mean he was already older, but something about him in 2751 02:36:49.520 --> 02:36:51.479 this like is the first thing that he did where 2752 02:36:51.479 --> 02:36:54.360 I was like, oh man. He's like the voice of 2753 02:36:54.520 --> 02:36:58.600 reason in so many different situations. He's like a born leader. 2754 02:37:00.479 --> 02:37:02.760 This is one that Denzel does not have a huge role, 2755 02:37:03.159 --> 02:37:07.440 but he when he's on screen, it is huge. He 2756 02:37:07.799 --> 02:37:10.120 is He is a tour de force when he needs 2757 02:37:10.159 --> 02:37:14.159 to be. Love Glory. I think it's overlooked and sort 2758 02:37:14.159 --> 02:37:17.959 of underappreciated in twenty twenty five, and honestly, right now 2759 02:37:18.159 --> 02:37:20.040 probably one of the more important movies that we could watch. 2760 02:37:20.280 --> 02:37:23.680 So yeah, Glory, Glory's not on my list. So I 2761 02:37:23.719 --> 02:37:27.639 get to talk about Glory a little bit. It's at sixteen, oh, nice. 2762 02:37:27.840 --> 02:37:32.520 I love Glory. So when I watched Glory, like, we 2763 02:37:32.639 --> 02:37:34.760 didn't watch this in school because you know, it's American 2764 02:37:34.840 --> 02:37:38.840 Civil Wars and he teaches that shit. But I do 2765 02:37:39.040 --> 02:37:42.639 remember watching it when I was roughly that age and 2766 02:37:42.959 --> 02:37:45.440 I was bored to tears. So when it came to 2767 02:37:45.520 --> 02:37:48.360 doing my Denzel video and I was like, fuck, I've 2768 02:37:48.360 --> 02:37:50.600 got to watch Glory. I don't want to watch fucking Glory. 2769 02:37:50.719 --> 02:37:56.079 I don't care. I was stunned by it. I think 2770 02:37:56.399 --> 02:38:00.920 genuinely it was the first time I got Morgan Freeman because, like, 2771 02:38:01.120 --> 02:38:04.639 Morgan Freeman is in so much stuff, but every time 2772 02:38:04.680 --> 02:38:06.440 I watch him, I'm like, he's okay, Like he's a 2773 02:38:06.799 --> 02:38:11.559 fine actor, he's okay, he's charismatic, but I don't understand, 2774 02:38:11.799 --> 02:38:14.840 Like the thing with Morgan Freeman, I don't know how 2775 02:38:14.959 --> 02:38:17.200 this guy out of all of them. And then I 2776 02:38:17.559 --> 02:38:20.079 I was like, fuck, Morgan Freeman's really good in Glory. 2777 02:38:20.760 --> 02:38:25.760 He's so good in Glory. Well, so, yeah, they're correct, 2778 02:38:25.799 --> 02:38:30.920 Andre Brows in this movie. He's so good in this movie. Yeah. 2779 02:38:31.000 --> 02:38:35.239 Denzel's obviously great. He has the Glory tier, the famous tier. 2780 02:38:37.040 --> 02:38:40.920 I believe he was nominated for the Oscar for this 2781 02:38:41.920 --> 02:38:43.959 but I yeah, I don't think he won. I think 2782 02:38:44.000 --> 02:38:46.840 this is the first time he was like nominated for 2783 02:38:46.920 --> 02:38:50.600 an Oscar for Best Supporting And yeah, it's an absolutely 2784 02:38:50.840 --> 02:38:53.399 brilliant movie. And you know it's great because I don't 2785 02:38:53.399 --> 02:38:56.920 care about war movies. I especially don't care about the 2786 02:38:57.000 --> 02:39:01.000 American Civil War and I did not care for Morgan Freeman, 2787 02:39:01.399 --> 02:39:05.479 so it has to tell you something. It's fantastic. Also, 2788 02:39:05.719 --> 02:39:09.559 Edward Zwick, who directed it, did two more movies with Denzel, 2789 02:39:10.239 --> 02:39:13.879 did The Siege and Courage and The Fire. The Siege 2790 02:39:14.719 --> 02:39:17.680 is pretty okay, it's pretty good, and Courage and Defire 2791 02:39:17.760 --> 02:39:19.079 I think is super underrated. 2792 02:39:19.479 --> 02:39:23.719 It's very underrated. Good choice there that that almost made 2793 02:39:23.760 --> 02:39:25.920 my list. That was a one. I think it would 2794 02:39:25.959 --> 02:39:26.799 have been like thirteen. 2795 02:39:27.399 --> 02:39:30.399 Encourage and Defire is quite it's like thy three on mine. 2796 02:39:31.159 --> 02:39:33.319 But even still there, I think it's got like a 2797 02:39:33.799 --> 02:39:35.079 like three and a half stars. 2798 02:39:35.520 --> 02:39:37.799 Oh, Denzel did win the Oscar for Glory. 2799 02:39:38.040 --> 02:39:41.399 Ah okay, okay, okay, I know there was like an 2800 02:39:41.440 --> 02:39:43.280 Oscar thing there in my head. I just couldn't figure 2801 02:39:43.280 --> 02:39:43.760 out what it was. 2802 02:39:43.920 --> 02:39:45.520 Yeah, I did. For some reason, I did in my 2803 02:39:45.600 --> 02:39:47.799 mind that his first his first win was not in 2804 02:39:47.840 --> 02:39:48.280 the eighties. 2805 02:39:50.639 --> 02:39:53.600 Fair enough, all right, you're number eight, my number eight. 2806 02:39:53.639 --> 02:39:53.959 What is it? 2807 02:39:53.959 --> 02:40:00.280 It's it's the Tragedy of Macbeth direct Colin. Yeah. So 2808 02:40:00.440 --> 02:40:02.600 obviously I don't have a physical release for it, because 2809 02:40:02.639 --> 02:40:06.799 there isn't one as far as I know. This is 2810 02:40:06.840 --> 02:40:08.440 where you say, like, oh, italy us one. 2811 02:40:09.520 --> 02:40:11.639 I don't know. There might be one. 2812 02:40:11.680 --> 02:40:18.799 I'll check, but yeah, it's so good. Like everybody knows 2813 02:40:19.079 --> 02:40:22.920 Denzel stage actor, you know, I mean, loves being on stage, 2814 02:40:22.959 --> 02:40:27.840 and he definitely loves Shakespeare. He's done Shakespeare a million times. 2815 02:40:27.879 --> 02:40:32.680 And I studied Macbeth at school. You know, everyone studies 2816 02:40:32.959 --> 02:40:37.159 something Shakespeare at school, but for us, who was Macbeth. 2817 02:40:37.319 --> 02:40:40.760 And I hated it. I was bored to tears with Macbeth. 2818 02:40:40.799 --> 02:40:42.959 It's nowhere near my favorite Shakespeare thing. 2819 02:40:43.879 --> 02:40:45.079 And this. 2820 02:40:47.520 --> 02:40:54.239 Is the first time I understood Macbeth, like I understood 2821 02:40:54.239 --> 02:40:56.879 the power of it and how great this story can be. 2822 02:40:57.879 --> 02:41:00.799 I think reading the material didn't really work for me, 2823 02:41:00.920 --> 02:41:06.639 but like seeing it is so because this is a 2824 02:41:06.760 --> 02:41:11.600 stage play just filmed. Every set on here looks like 2825 02:41:11.719 --> 02:41:14.840 it was built for a stage. You know, there's no 2826 02:41:15.079 --> 02:41:18.520 like complicated like structures or anything like that. It's all 2827 02:41:18.639 --> 02:41:21.319 very plain. It's all very beautiful as well. It's a 2828 02:41:21.479 --> 02:41:25.200 very beautifully shot like black and white film, and every 2829 02:41:25.399 --> 02:41:28.360 performer in it is performing like they're on a stage. 2830 02:41:28.440 --> 02:41:31.159 There's like long takes of just big monologues and stuff 2831 02:41:31.200 --> 02:41:35.079 like that, which obviously Denzel thrives in. And I think 2832 02:41:35.120 --> 02:41:42.239 it also expertly shows how much Denzel understands Shakespeare, because 2833 02:41:43.000 --> 02:41:46.159 Shakespeare was funny, like for his time, there was a 2834 02:41:46.239 --> 02:41:49.200 lot of comedy in his work, and I feel like 2835 02:41:49.239 --> 02:41:51.520 a lot of that gets lost in you know, over 2836 02:41:51.600 --> 02:41:54.600 time and the translation as comedy changes and the wordings 2837 02:41:54.680 --> 02:41:58.639 and stuff. But like, Denzel is funny in this movie. 2838 02:41:58.879 --> 02:42:02.280 He makes that die log his own and he's like 2839 02:42:02.479 --> 02:42:05.600 super charismatic as he always is with it. And yeah, 2840 02:42:05.719 --> 02:42:08.600 it's it's so good and a great cast as well. 2841 02:42:10.760 --> 02:42:12.920 I've heard nothing about good things about this. I really 2842 02:42:13.000 --> 02:42:16.000 need to see it. It's just they try to get 2843 02:42:16.040 --> 02:42:17.079 people to not be able to see it. 2844 02:42:17.200 --> 02:42:21.360 Feels like, yeah, it's funny because obviously the Coen Brothers 2845 02:42:21.399 --> 02:42:23.680 like broke up and Joel Cohen has gone and made 2846 02:42:23.719 --> 02:42:27.239 this like masterpiece, while Ethan is just making like his 2847 02:42:27.360 --> 02:42:30.360 weird like little Goofy's anythings, and I need him to 2848 02:42:30.639 --> 02:42:32.159 like salt his shit out. 2849 02:42:32.559 --> 02:42:36.879 Yeah I haven't hated his the stuff, but yeah, please 2850 02:42:36.920 --> 02:42:40.879 get back together with your boyfriend. Yeah all right. So 2851 02:42:40.959 --> 02:42:43.319 my number seven, since I've not seen that one, he 2852 02:42:43.520 --> 02:42:49.040 is Training Day two thousand and one's Training Day, directed 2853 02:42:49.079 --> 02:42:53.079 by Antoine Fuqua. It feels like it was made for me. 2854 02:42:53.200 --> 02:42:56.159 I feel like Antoine Fuqua when he was on Fire 2855 02:42:56.600 --> 02:43:01.120 was incredible. But the big thing is and Ethan Hawk 2856 02:43:01.319 --> 02:43:05.399 are like the perfect team up for my sensibilities. They 2857 02:43:05.479 --> 02:43:10.239 play off each other extremely well. In this movie, Denzel, 2858 02:43:10.399 --> 02:43:13.479 again playing a detective but not quite the same detective 2859 02:43:13.520 --> 02:43:17.159 as he normally does, is training Ethan Hawk essentially on 2860 02:43:17.280 --> 02:43:21.440 his first day as a rookie cop and Chico's bed. 2861 02:43:22.239 --> 02:43:26.040 It's it's a just wonderfully acted movie. It's two people 2862 02:43:26.840 --> 02:43:30.319 giving like the performances of a lifetime in that moment, 2863 02:43:30.639 --> 02:43:36.760 and it is like endlessly quotable. Denzel is, like there 2864 02:43:36.799 --> 02:43:39.200 are some scenes in this where you can like visibly 2865 02:43:39.280 --> 02:43:42.799 see him shaking because of how he's acting. He is 2866 02:43:44.840 --> 02:43:47.840 so into this that it is this is like the 2867 02:43:47.920 --> 02:43:50.879 perfect example of those Every time I see him acting, 2868 02:43:50.920 --> 02:43:53.840 I only see Denzel no much fucking Training Day. Dude, 2869 02:43:53.879 --> 02:43:56.360 he is another person all together. 2870 02:43:56.639 --> 02:43:58.639 He's scary as fucking training. 2871 02:43:58.639 --> 02:44:02.799 Yeah, it's wild. If you've not seen Training Day, you 2872 02:44:03.120 --> 02:44:05.280 you should and go into it not knowing anything. This 2873 02:44:05.399 --> 02:44:07.360 is one of those movies that it's absolutely better for that. 2874 02:44:08.520 --> 02:44:10.479 There's another one with a lot of names in the background. 2875 02:44:10.479 --> 02:44:13.479 I mean they got fucking doctor Drane Snoop in this. Yeah, 2876 02:44:13.920 --> 02:44:16.399 Raymond J. Barry is in this. Tom Berenger is in this. 2877 02:44:16.680 --> 02:44:23.440 But oh Scotland, Yeah, big part in this. I I mean, 2878 02:44:23.479 --> 02:44:25.399 there's there's so much that could be said about Training Day, 2879 02:44:25.520 --> 02:44:28.200 but it's all kind of been said before. It is 2880 02:44:28.600 --> 02:44:32.440 one of those like classic la crime movies, and if 2881 02:44:32.520 --> 02:44:36.040 you have not taken the time with it, you should. 2882 02:44:36.159 --> 02:44:38.079 It's a It's a two hour movie that I feel 2883 02:44:38.120 --> 02:44:40.000 like I wouldn't have been mad if it was three 2884 02:44:40.040 --> 02:44:40.639 hours longer. 2885 02:44:41.680 --> 02:44:41.879 Yeah. 2886 02:44:41.959 --> 02:44:44.879 I love stuff like this, and I feel like it 2887 02:44:45.040 --> 02:44:48.879 is one of the best examples of like dirty cop 2888 02:44:49.520 --> 02:44:52.000 training a rookie type of movies that have been attempted, 2889 02:44:52.520 --> 02:44:54.920 and this is one of those that could not have 2890 02:44:54.959 --> 02:44:57.680 been anybody but Denzel He he is this role, he 2891 02:44:57.840 --> 02:45:00.360 is Training Day. I love it movie. 2892 02:45:01.920 --> 02:45:04.479 Oh we're talking about training day later because it is 2893 02:45:04.559 --> 02:45:09.159 on my list nice before that though, is one I 2894 02:45:09.239 --> 02:45:12.879 don't have a physical release for which herks me is 2895 02:45:13.280 --> 02:45:16.680 John Q. So John Q used to be higher on 2896 02:45:16.760 --> 02:45:20.479 my list, but recent rewatches have dropped it down to seven. 2897 02:45:22.879 --> 02:45:26.319 But what a movie. Okay, so we played this game earlier, 2898 02:45:26.399 --> 02:45:28.920 let's play it again. What do you think The Rotten 2899 02:45:28.959 --> 02:45:29.959 Tomato score. 2900 02:45:29.719 --> 02:45:33.600 Of John Q is what I think it should be, 2901 02:45:34.799 --> 02:45:36.319 probably about the same as what I said for the 2902 02:45:36.399 --> 02:45:40.479 other one. I'll say it should be like a eighty three, 2903 02:45:41.040 --> 02:45:43.799 and it's probably based on what you just said, probably 2904 02:45:43.879 --> 02:45:44.639 like a forty one. 2905 02:45:45.719 --> 02:45:50.959 It is twenty six, Jesus twenty. 2906 02:45:52.239 --> 02:45:59.680 As so much twenty six? What it right? Right? John Q? 2907 02:46:00.280 --> 02:46:05.639 So powerful one relevant even still to today. The performance 2908 02:46:05.719 --> 02:46:09.959 put in by Denzel stands out even in a career 2909 02:46:10.000 --> 02:46:15.040 of standout performances. It is so powerful. It is so simple, 2910 02:46:16.559 --> 02:46:19.000 and that's what makes it so effective. If nobody knows 2911 02:46:19.040 --> 02:46:23.959 what it's about. It's about John quincy Archibal. He's just 2912 02:46:24.319 --> 02:46:28.159 a regular dad, you know. He works part time at 2913 02:46:28.159 --> 02:46:30.600 a factory because they've cut his hours and whatever. And 2914 02:46:30.719 --> 02:46:33.959 his son has a problem, a medical problem, like his 2915 02:46:34.040 --> 02:46:37.520 heart's too big, and he's a heart transplant, but Denzel 2916 02:46:37.600 --> 02:46:41.040 doesn't have the insurance because his job put him on 2917 02:46:41.159 --> 02:46:45.920 a worse insurance plan, and the surgery costs like two 2918 02:46:46.000 --> 02:46:48.719 hundred and fifty thousands or whatever, so he just can't 2919 02:46:48.760 --> 02:46:52.920 afford in. He tries everything, you know, to make up 2920 02:46:52.959 --> 02:46:54.680 the money for this, you know, he sells the car, 2921 02:46:54.879 --> 02:46:58.360 he's selling everything, like his wife's engagement ring. He's doing 2922 02:46:58.399 --> 02:47:00.879 everything he possibly can. He's going to financial aid and 2923 02:47:01.360 --> 02:47:03.079 doing all these different kinds of things, and he just 2924 02:47:03.159 --> 02:47:08.319 cannot come up with the money. And he eventually takes 2925 02:47:08.440 --> 02:47:14.120 hostage of the hospital. So he bolts like all these doors, 2926 02:47:14.159 --> 02:47:16.680 and he takes a like a doctor, a couple of nurses, 2927 02:47:16.719 --> 02:47:19.239 and a couple civilians that are just like in the 2928 02:47:19.280 --> 02:47:23.799 waiting room until his demands are met, which is to 2929 02:47:23.879 --> 02:47:31.000 get his son a new heart. So powerful, it's truly 2930 02:47:32.719 --> 02:47:37.360 the shining example of like a really good person in 2931 02:47:37.440 --> 02:47:41.799 a really bad situation, you know, because like objectively, what 2932 02:47:41.920 --> 02:47:46.159 he's doing is a terrible thing. You know, he's holding 2933 02:47:46.239 --> 02:47:49.120 all these people at gunpoint. He's holding them hostage, a 2934 02:47:49.200 --> 02:47:52.040 lot of them sick people, you know, because he's not 2935 02:47:52.239 --> 02:47:54.799 just you know, the chief of surgery or whatever. It's 2936 02:47:54.840 --> 02:47:57.840 not just him in there, but it's a woman who's pregnant, 2937 02:47:57.959 --> 02:48:01.000 and there's a guy like there's Eddie Griffin in this movie, 2938 02:48:01.079 --> 02:48:03.280 and like his fingers are like are all cut off, 2939 02:48:03.399 --> 02:48:06.680 and yeah, there's like a woman in there with a 2940 02:48:06.760 --> 02:48:09.920 baby that has like an ear infection and stuff. And 2941 02:48:10.319 --> 02:48:16.639 he's got all these people in there, and you would 2942 02:48:16.719 --> 02:48:20.360 think that like because of this awful situation, you know, 2943 02:48:20.520 --> 02:48:24.920 like he's the villain, but everyone groups around him because 2944 02:48:24.959 --> 02:48:27.479 everyone's very sympathetic to his cause, even the people that 2945 02:48:27.639 --> 02:48:32.680 is holding hostage. And yeah, it's fantastic. It's directed by 2946 02:48:32.799 --> 02:48:36.639 Nick Cassavetti's which is funny because of that Flesh and 2947 02:48:36.680 --> 02:48:40.799 Blood TV movie I mentioned earlier has John Cassavetti's in it, 2948 02:48:40.959 --> 02:48:43.159 so like Denzil has kind of a little link there. 2949 02:48:45.799 --> 02:48:48.239 And everyone in this movie is just so unreasonable. Can 2950 02:48:48.319 --> 02:48:51.079 I say, like there is not a single reasonable person 2951 02:48:51.239 --> 02:48:52.959 in this movie except. 2952 02:48:52.600 --> 02:48:53.120 For John Q. 2953 02:48:54.000 --> 02:48:59.360 Like the director of the hospital is an asshole. She 2954 02:48:59.760 --> 02:49:03.799 like is not sympathetic at all to his cause. Like 2955 02:49:04.000 --> 02:49:06.239 the chief of surgery is like, right, so these are 2956 02:49:06.239 --> 02:49:09.760 your options, and she's like, hold on, you cannot afford 2957 02:49:09.799 --> 02:49:15.000 these options. Therefore get out. She doesn't care at all. 2958 02:49:15.239 --> 02:49:19.959 John's wife, Kimberly Elise in this movie is like the 2959 02:49:20.159 --> 02:49:25.399 meanest person that's ever existed, Like she's The movie opens 2960 02:49:25.520 --> 02:49:29.559 up with their car getting repossessed and she's angry at him, 2961 02:49:30.360 --> 02:49:32.639 and he's basically going like, well, they cut my arms 2962 02:49:32.639 --> 02:49:34.280 at the factory, so I had to over make a 2963 02:49:34.319 --> 02:49:37.399 payment on the house or the car, so I chose 2964 02:49:37.479 --> 02:49:40.959 the house. And she's still like pissed at him, and 2965 02:49:41.040 --> 02:49:43.840 she's like really angry. And then when it comes to 2966 02:49:43.879 --> 02:49:49.239 the medical bills stuff, she's like super angry at him 2967 02:49:49.399 --> 02:49:51.520 still for not being able to afford the medical bills, 2968 02:49:51.760 --> 02:49:54.639 and then she's like do something jahn like that, and 2969 02:49:54.719 --> 02:49:58.840 then he takes the hospital a kid like hostage and 2970 02:49:59.040 --> 02:50:02.319 it's so because it's like you're in the same position 2971 02:50:02.399 --> 02:50:05.239 as him, Yeah, why are you angry at him? And 2972 02:50:05.479 --> 02:50:08.639 everyone is the same, like everyone is just so unreasonable 2973 02:50:08.760 --> 02:50:14.600 and obtuse, But it's fine. Eddie Griffin is hilarious in 2974 02:50:14.680 --> 02:50:18.319 this movie. Every line reading he has is just so funny, 2975 02:50:19.159 --> 02:50:21.040 and yeah, it's a great movie. 2976 02:50:22.200 --> 02:50:23.799 It is, which is why I'll talk about it a 2977 02:50:23.840 --> 02:50:28.520 little bit later. My number six is a kind of 2978 02:50:28.559 --> 02:50:32.920 a good companion piece. To glory because it's related to 2979 02:50:33.879 --> 02:50:37.600 war kind of, and that is nineteen ninety five's Devil 2980 02:50:37.799 --> 02:50:43.600 in a Blue Dress. Carl Franklin directs the absolute hell 2981 02:50:43.719 --> 02:50:47.079 out of this movie. This is set just after World 2982 02:50:47.159 --> 02:50:51.600 War Two and essentially Denzel's a war hero that comes 2983 02:50:51.680 --> 02:50:55.120 back to Los Angeles and gets stuck in the middle 2984 02:50:55.159 --> 02:51:01.159 of this crazy like murder mystery, socio placeolitical scandal thing. 2985 02:51:01.479 --> 02:51:04.559 And the big thing with this is if you like 2986 02:51:05.159 --> 02:51:08.680 anything that Carl Franklin has done, obviously the one that 2987 02:51:08.680 --> 02:51:10.719 you would probably go with with this is One False 2988 02:51:10.799 --> 02:51:13.879 Move but out of Time. He also did with Denzel 2989 02:51:14.200 --> 02:51:19.600 mcdonzell decent, not not top ten material, but decent. One 2990 02:51:19.639 --> 02:51:22.760 False Move is is really great, and I would say 2991 02:51:22.799 --> 02:51:25.840 this one is up there as well. But this movie. 2992 02:51:26.799 --> 02:51:30.879 Denzel is hot as hell in this movie. It is 2993 02:51:31.600 --> 02:51:35.639 such a beautiful period piece, captures la and just a 2994 02:51:36.040 --> 02:51:40.799 really beautiful Like the closest thing I'd probably say too 2995 02:51:40.879 --> 02:51:47.719 is like mulhalland Falls. Everything is like that, everybody's wearing 2996 02:51:47.760 --> 02:51:51.479 a suit type of background shots. 2997 02:51:53.120 --> 02:51:54.840 It's in the wall like out of its time. 2998 02:51:55.399 --> 02:51:59.799 Yeah, it is so good. The the murder mystery aspect 2999 02:51:59.879 --> 02:52:04.360 and like the political scandal of this, though, is so like, 3000 02:52:05.159 --> 02:52:07.319 so well done. For a movie like this, they could 3001 02:52:07.360 --> 02:52:10.360 have they could have easily like cheaped out on a 3002 02:52:10.479 --> 02:52:14.040 way worse script and instead this Even without Denzel, this 3003 02:52:14.120 --> 02:52:17.360 movie would have still been a banger. Thankfully he's in it, 3004 02:52:17.440 --> 02:52:20.440 and it elevates it to something incredible. But Devil in 3005 02:52:20.440 --> 02:52:24.760 a Blue Dress deserves every like look back that it 3006 02:52:24.840 --> 02:52:28.200 possibly can get, especially when you consider the timeline of 3007 02:52:28.319 --> 02:52:31.559 doing this right after World War Two and setting it 3008 02:52:31.719 --> 02:52:35.200 as a noir, as as him investigating this as a 3009 02:52:35.280 --> 02:52:38.760 black man in the late forties. There's so much that 3010 02:52:38.840 --> 02:52:41.440 comes with that, and he delivers all of it with 3011 02:52:41.559 --> 02:52:46.600 nuance and poise and just again oozes charisma like he 3012 02:52:46.760 --> 02:52:50.159 does in so many of these movies. But this movie specifically, 3013 02:52:50.319 --> 02:52:53.559 it just it gets to me. I mean, everything about 3014 02:52:53.600 --> 02:52:57.200 this is interesting and compelling and one of those where 3015 02:52:57.239 --> 02:53:00.200 it's like I love spending time in these scenes but 3016 02:53:00.239 --> 02:53:01.760 also get along with it because I really want to 3017 02:53:01.760 --> 02:53:05.000 see what happens next, And some of the other movies 3018 02:53:05.040 --> 02:53:08.159 that are in this genre it's, I don't know, they 3019 02:53:08.239 --> 02:53:11.319 lose steam. This movie kind of starts and then doesn't 3020 02:53:11.399 --> 02:53:15.520 let up in a in a very compelling way worth watching. 3021 02:53:15.559 --> 02:53:19.000 It's got a nice Criterion release, I believe. I think 3022 02:53:19.079 --> 02:53:22.920 Criterion did it over the Indicator release of this. I 3023 02:53:23.000 --> 02:53:24.799 was about to say the Indicator releases the one I have. 3024 02:53:25.799 --> 02:53:31.840 Great film, great performance again, really good cast too. Wasn't 3025 02:53:31.879 --> 02:53:34.120 gonna highlight that too much because there's there's not a 3026 02:53:34.159 --> 02:53:36.879 lot that are like massive but don cheetle in this, 3027 02:53:37.000 --> 02:53:42.479 Tom Size Moore, Jennifer Bial's also in this, but random 3028 02:53:42.559 --> 02:53:45.440 ass character actors again that you've seen in so many 3029 02:53:45.520 --> 02:53:48.120 different things up here in the background and you're like, oh, 3030 02:53:48.159 --> 02:53:49.879 I've seen, Oh he's gone and he's never in a 3031 02:53:49.920 --> 02:53:54.200 scene again in this movie. But yeah, really really fun movie. 3032 02:53:54.520 --> 02:53:55.799 Love love this film. 3033 02:53:57.120 --> 02:54:01.319 Yeah it's not in my turn it's at fourteen, but yeah, 3034 02:54:01.360 --> 02:54:03.879 I do still really love it. Nine outs of ten, 3035 02:54:04.120 --> 02:54:08.840 four and a half stars. Brilliant, brilliant movie. So yeah, 3036 02:54:09.319 --> 02:54:11.959 you basically covered everything I would say. Also, but to 3037 02:54:12.040 --> 02:54:14.920 this point that mister Adam Scholfield saying Denzel is in 3038 02:54:15.479 --> 02:54:19.319 so many non viol mo Yeah, he is in a 3039 02:54:19.399 --> 02:54:23.879 lot of element but like so many non like I mean, 3040 02:54:24.000 --> 02:54:28.360 does my Better Blues in Mississippi, Massala Offenses and Philadelphia 3041 02:54:28.639 --> 02:54:32.040 and much ado about nothing like that. There's a lot, 3042 02:54:33.680 --> 02:54:41.840 but it's true. Yeah, but my number six is no 3043 02:54:42.040 --> 02:54:42.680 better Blues. 3044 02:54:45.000 --> 02:54:46.239 What a movie. 3045 02:54:46.920 --> 02:54:52.559 So Spike Lee joint again an incredible cast, like a 3046 02:54:52.719 --> 02:54:54.799 really good cast as well. Actually, so let me just 3047 02:54:55.040 --> 02:54:58.280 so he's got Denzel, Spike Lee's obviously in it. It's 3048 02:54:58.280 --> 02:55:04.000 got Wesley Snipes in this movie. Gen Carlo Esposito, he's 3049 02:55:04.040 --> 02:55:08.959 really good in it. John Tatoro, Charlie Murphy's in this 3050 02:55:09.120 --> 02:55:13.200 for like two scenes as well. But Charlie Murphy's so funny. 3051 02:55:13.959 --> 02:55:18.239 And yeah, it's such a good movie. It's about like 3052 02:55:18.319 --> 02:55:21.760 a jazz musician, he said, he said, trumpeter, and it's 3053 02:55:23.159 --> 02:55:25.440 it's one of those movies that makes you care for 3054 02:55:25.559 --> 02:55:29.280 something even if you don't generally, kind of like Moneyball 3055 02:55:29.360 --> 02:55:32.559 does for baseball, Like you care so much for the 3056 02:55:32.639 --> 02:55:35.239 jazz music in this, even if you know you don't 3057 02:55:35.280 --> 02:55:41.959 love jazz. And we really really need gen Carlo in 3058 02:55:42.079 --> 02:55:46.479 more lighthearted comedic roles like he's for the like the 3059 02:55:46.559 --> 02:55:49.319 past ten years he has just been playing Gusfring in 3060 02:55:49.440 --> 02:55:53.680 different scenarios and it's killing me because he is such 3061 02:55:53.840 --> 02:56:01.639 a funny and charismatic actor. But yeah, so good Denzel. 3062 02:56:02.200 --> 02:56:05.719 I think this is probably a top three or four 3063 02:56:05.879 --> 02:56:12.159 Denzel performance, it has like his very theatrical approach, but 3064 02:56:12.879 --> 02:56:15.959 even in them quite a moment, it's got like this 3065 02:56:16.159 --> 02:56:19.200 kind of grandiose nature to it. Even you know, when 3066 02:56:19.239 --> 02:56:22.920 he's not shouting or delivering a big monologue, just when 3067 02:56:22.959 --> 02:56:26.159 it's him with these thoughts, it still feels very thought provoking. 3068 02:56:26.239 --> 02:56:32.600 It still feels very grand and he also feels like 3069 02:56:32.680 --> 02:56:38.879 a very tangible person here. Yeah, you know, like a 3070 02:56:38.959 --> 02:56:41.559 lot of the times, like Denzel in movies feels larger 3071 02:56:41.639 --> 02:56:45.920 than life, you know, but in this movie he feels 3072 02:56:46.000 --> 02:56:50.079 like someone you would just know. And that comes with 3073 02:56:50.319 --> 02:56:52.079 like a lot of the chemistry that he has with 3074 02:56:52.159 --> 02:56:55.159 the bandmates, with Wesley Snipes and with Spike leean with 3075 02:56:55.319 --> 02:56:59.600 everyone that's in like that group. His scenes, especially like backstage, 3076 02:56:59.760 --> 02:57:03.399 just like those green rooms or whatever, are so naturalistic 3077 02:57:03.520 --> 02:57:07.719 and so funny and so just like free flowing. There's 3078 02:57:07.760 --> 02:57:11.239 some of the best scenes so Spike Lee has ever directed. 3079 02:57:12.159 --> 02:57:14.799 And yeah, so there's the thing, by the way with 3080 02:57:14.920 --> 02:57:19.120 highest to lowest on the Spike Lee train of thought, 3081 02:57:19.920 --> 02:57:22.799 where people are really upset with it because it makes 3082 02:57:22.799 --> 02:57:25.079 a lot of bizarre choices, which it does. It makes 3083 02:57:25.079 --> 02:57:29.479 a lot of bizarre like music choices and a lot 3084 02:57:29.559 --> 02:57:34.639 of bizarre like tone choices and editing choices. And here's 3085 02:57:34.680 --> 02:57:38.040 the thing, Spike Lee does that in this movie as well. 3086 02:57:39.639 --> 02:57:44.239 But people like this movie, so they're more accepting of it. Yeah, 3087 02:57:44.440 --> 02:57:46.479 but I think like in the modern day people aren't 3088 02:57:46.799 --> 02:57:50.079 really too accepting of like a high director like that 3089 02:57:50.280 --> 02:57:54.360 making just weird and bizarre choices. But there's like multiple 3090 02:57:54.479 --> 02:58:01.440 times in this movie where there's like the score is 3091 02:58:01.559 --> 02:58:03.479 going on and it's not like the jazz score, it's 3092 02:58:03.559 --> 02:58:06.600 just like it's the film's general score, and it feels 3093 02:58:06.959 --> 02:58:11.280 so clashing to what you're seeing, right, and it's so 3094 02:58:11.479 --> 02:58:13.600 odd and out of place, but it works. And I 3095 02:58:13.719 --> 02:58:16.040 feel like that's the same thing in Highslois. He's just 3096 02:58:16.120 --> 02:58:18.120 doing like the exact same thing, and I think it 3097 02:58:18.239 --> 02:58:23.399 works phenomenally. And yeah, I think Bleak is one of 3098 02:58:23.479 --> 02:58:28.280 the most layered and interesting characters in the Denzel canon. 3099 02:58:30.600 --> 02:58:34.559 We deal a lot with time and how we spend 3100 02:58:34.639 --> 02:58:37.360 it and who we spend it on, and the value 3101 02:58:37.559 --> 02:58:39.600 of what we spend our time on, you know, whether 3102 02:58:39.639 --> 02:58:42.079 it's people or a passion, and finding the balance in 3103 02:58:42.159 --> 02:58:48.079 those things and the repercussions of choosing one thing over 3104 02:58:48.159 --> 02:58:50.799 the other and yeah, I think it just has some 3105 02:58:50.920 --> 02:58:53.799 really interesting dynamics and stuff like that, like Bleak and 3106 02:58:54.399 --> 02:58:57.479 Wesley Snipe's character Shadow. There always are odds in this movie. 3107 02:58:57.520 --> 02:58:59.319 They're always after each other, but when a certain thing 3108 02:58:59.399 --> 02:59:03.799 happens called to the third act, Shadows like right there 3109 02:59:03.879 --> 02:59:06.360 with him. You know, it's his friend, And I feel 3110 02:59:06.399 --> 02:59:09.319 like it's an interesting display of friendship in this movie 3111 02:59:09.840 --> 02:59:14.040 that feels very real because friends aren't always just big buddies. 3112 02:59:14.799 --> 02:59:18.159 Yeah you know, but yeah, it's great. Also, there's a 3113 02:59:18.200 --> 02:59:21.079 shot of an actual birth in this movie. By the way, 3114 02:59:21.559 --> 02:59:26.360 there's like an actual birth. It's so odd. Spike Lee 3115 02:59:26.639 --> 02:59:30.840 paid people so he could film them giving birth for 3116 02:59:30.959 --> 02:59:33.879 this movie, and he had the hospital like on speed dial, 3117 02:59:34.600 --> 02:59:36.239 like so they would call him as soon as someone 3118 02:59:36.319 --> 02:59:39.239 goes into labor. Crazy bizarre thing. 3119 02:59:39.559 --> 02:59:46.200 But yeah, so music is huge for me. I was 3120 02:59:46.239 --> 02:59:50.239 in jazzban growing up and this was on my list 3121 02:59:50.319 --> 02:59:52.680 for the longest time. It got bumped at the last 3122 02:59:52.719 --> 02:59:54.360 moment because I didn't want to have too many Spike 3123 02:59:54.440 --> 02:59:58.479 Lee films in my tops. So this is technically my 3124 02:59:58.600 --> 03:00:03.399 number eleven. But this movie is very very special to me. 3125 03:00:03.959 --> 03:00:07.159 This is one that I have seen many times. One 3126 03:00:07.200 --> 03:00:10.000 of my favorite Spikes, one of my favorite Denzel's one 3127 03:00:10.040 --> 03:00:13.079 of my favorite music movies, and it's it's just it's 3128 03:00:13.440 --> 03:00:17.719 very very good. You said everything very eloquently, so I 3129 03:00:17.799 --> 03:00:19.120 will let it go there for sure. 3130 03:00:19.280 --> 03:00:21.639 Yeah. Well so just real quick, the final moment of 3131 03:00:21.680 --> 03:00:26.639 the movie kind of silently talk about like how we 3132 03:00:27.360 --> 03:00:30.799 avoid the pitfalls of parenting by looking at our own parents, 3133 03:00:31.840 --> 03:00:33.719 you know, and we see how we turn into them, 3134 03:00:33.760 --> 03:00:37.440 but also a just you know, like and I'm sure 3135 03:00:37.520 --> 03:00:40.159 you as a parent can definitely like relate to that 3136 03:00:40.280 --> 03:00:43.000 in some way where he sees like how his mother 3137 03:00:43.120 --> 03:00:47.040 and father like treated his passion towards music and forcing 3138 03:00:47.120 --> 03:00:49.479 him into it, and when he finally has a child, 3139 03:00:49.559 --> 03:00:53.440 he kind of alters that behavior in his parenting. And 3140 03:00:53.559 --> 03:00:55.399 I just thought that was like a really interesting thing 3141 03:00:55.479 --> 03:00:56.760 to end the movie on. 3142 03:00:58.159 --> 03:01:02.639 Yeah, I agree. I think it's important and not super 3143 03:01:02.680 --> 03:01:04.399 stereotypical Spike type of choice. 3144 03:01:04.440 --> 03:01:07.440 So's yeah, yeah, it's very cool. 3145 03:01:08.959 --> 03:01:13.760 My number five is not in your top ten. I 3146 03:01:13.840 --> 03:01:17.799 can say that now I know objectively that this is 3147 03:01:18.319 --> 03:01:21.200 probably not even worthy of the top ten, but this 3148 03:01:21.399 --> 03:01:25.079 is a personal choice for me. My number five is 3149 03:01:25.360 --> 03:01:31.399 Tony Scott's last film twenty ten's Unstoppable. Wow. Yes. So 3150 03:01:32.200 --> 03:01:34.239 I don't know if you've ever heard this, because I 3151 03:01:34.239 --> 03:01:37.920 don't talk about it too much, but I was a 3152 03:01:38.280 --> 03:01:40.760 railroad conductor for multiple years of my life. I did 3153 03:01:40.840 --> 03:01:43.639 not know this. My father was an engineer, my grandfather 3154 03:01:43.799 --> 03:01:46.719 was an engineer. I grew up around the railroad, and 3155 03:01:47.159 --> 03:01:51.079 this movie gets a lot wrong about trains. This movie 3156 03:01:51.120 --> 03:01:53.920 also gets a lot right about trains. And for a 3157 03:01:54.079 --> 03:01:57.479 movie about an unstoppable train, which the whole premise for 3158 03:01:57.559 --> 03:02:00.120 this is kind of sort of impossible with how it 3159 03:02:00.159 --> 03:02:05.680 would go down. It's shockingly tense, but it's a very 3160 03:02:06.200 --> 03:02:11.120 fun movie. Just the fact that it like brought legitimacy 3161 03:02:11.239 --> 03:02:13.520 to a lot of stuff that I did. I love 3162 03:02:13.639 --> 03:02:16.280 this movie when it came out, and it was like, man, 3163 03:02:16.440 --> 03:02:19.280 Tony Scott is still out here making really fucking amazing, 3164 03:02:19.520 --> 03:02:23.079 like great entertaining movies. And then he died and it 3165 03:02:23.159 --> 03:02:25.760 was like Jesus, like what are we doing? He had 3166 03:02:25.879 --> 03:02:28.479 so many great movies still left within him, and now 3167 03:02:28.520 --> 03:02:31.520 he's gone, and like, instead, we're stuck with the other 3168 03:02:31.559 --> 03:02:36.520 Scott who's nowhere near his fun and unfortunately are It's true? 3169 03:02:36.840 --> 03:02:40.799 You know what actually makes this sad. When Flight came out, 3170 03:02:42.319 --> 03:02:45.159 Denza was doing like obviously the promotev for Flight and 3171 03:02:45.639 --> 03:02:49.879 he Tony Scott had like just recently like passed and 3172 03:02:49.920 --> 03:02:51.559 then we're talking to him about it, and he was 3173 03:02:51.600 --> 03:02:54.719 saying that, like the day or two before you know, 3174 03:02:54.879 --> 03:02:58.200 Tony Scott passed away, they had spoke on the phone 3175 03:02:58.440 --> 03:03:02.040 about doing another movie. Tommy Scott had this idea for 3176 03:03:02.559 --> 03:03:05.799 another movie with Denzealentn's. I was obviously like super up 3177 03:03:05.879 --> 03:03:08.319 for it, and it's just like it's annoying that we 3178 03:03:08.479 --> 03:03:11.520 never got to see like what them two could have 3179 03:03:11.600 --> 03:03:14.719 done in their late stage of their careers. 3180 03:03:15.479 --> 03:03:19.559 Yeah, So nineteen year old Ryan I was a conductor 3181 03:03:19.840 --> 03:03:22.600 and I worked there for a few years until the 3182 03:03:22.639 --> 03:03:26.200 economy tanked, and then I got laid off. In a 3183 03:03:26.239 --> 03:03:28.120 span of one year, I got laid off like thirty 3184 03:03:28.200 --> 03:03:30.799 six times from the railroad. They would lay you off 3185 03:03:30.920 --> 03:03:33.559 for like four days and then call you back to 3186 03:03:33.600 --> 03:03:35.520 work on the weekend because everybody took the weekend off 3187 03:03:35.559 --> 03:03:38.520 and they didn't have enough people, and so I had 3188 03:03:38.559 --> 03:03:42.600 a really rough year of it. But this was funny enough. 3189 03:03:42.840 --> 03:03:46.159 Came right after I decided like to fully walk away 3190 03:03:46.200 --> 03:03:48.879 from the railroad. And watching this was kind of cathartic 3191 03:03:48.920 --> 03:03:51.639 because it was like, damn, like, this is really interesting 3192 03:03:51.719 --> 03:03:53.600 to watch. A lot of it is wrong and I 3193 03:03:53.680 --> 03:03:56.680 know that. However, it's entertaining as hell. Another one like 3194 03:03:56.760 --> 03:03:58.879 we're gonna say this all night because most of his 3195 03:03:59.040 --> 03:04:02.200 movies I have credible cast, but for a movie like 3196 03:04:02.440 --> 03:04:07.840 Unstoppable about an unmanned train going out, you know, possibly 3197 03:04:07.920 --> 03:04:12.040 to kill people, is really stacked. I mean, Rosario Dawson 3198 03:04:12.319 --> 03:04:15.120 is greating this, Ethan So who plays in this, but 3199 03:04:15.520 --> 03:04:17.319 the big thing like this is one of the best 3200 03:04:17.399 --> 03:04:21.920 Chris Pine performances that ever done, so good in this. 3201 03:04:23.079 --> 03:04:26.120 Kevin Dunn is in this. Another character actor Kevin Corrigan 3202 03:04:26.120 --> 03:04:28.360 another one that's in this. Unfortunately you got to do 3203 03:04:29.120 --> 03:04:31.639 a little bit of like sucking it up to deal 3204 03:04:31.639 --> 03:04:36.200 with TJ. Miller ever so slightly in this. But overall 3205 03:04:36.600 --> 03:04:39.559 really fun movie built around trains, which we don't get 3206 03:04:39.559 --> 03:04:41.600 a lot of movies about trains, and to be honest, 3207 03:04:41.760 --> 03:04:45.319 it's a huge, huge backbone of the US and there's 3208 03:04:45.319 --> 03:04:47.000 a lot of stories you could tell around this shit. 3209 03:04:47.159 --> 03:04:50.000 So yeah, love this movie. It's fantastic. 3210 03:04:51.680 --> 03:04:53.680 Yeah, that's a thirty four of mine. 3211 03:04:54.159 --> 03:04:54.680 Not shocked. 3212 03:04:55.239 --> 03:04:58.079 Yeah, but like it is in good company, like it 3213 03:04:58.200 --> 03:05:00.399 is next to Courage and to Fire and Out of 3214 03:05:00.520 --> 03:05:03.840 Time and stuff like that. Like it's still a very 3215 03:05:04.399 --> 03:05:07.319 high quality movie. It's like way above the Book of 3216 03:05:07.360 --> 03:05:12.159 the Line all that stuff. Yeah, let's not even get there. 3217 03:05:13.520 --> 03:05:18.879 It is my least favorite Tony Scott and Denzel collaboration, 3218 03:05:19.040 --> 03:05:22.959 of which I think they've done four right, Crimson Tide, 3219 03:05:23.680 --> 03:05:30.319 Deja Vu, Man on Fire, and un Yeah, yeah that works. Yeah, 3220 03:05:30.360 --> 03:05:32.760 it's my least favorite of those. But it's still a 3221 03:05:32.959 --> 03:05:35.440 very quality movie. You can put it on anything. It's 3222 03:05:35.920 --> 03:05:39.200 like Speed but with a train. You know, it's just 3223 03:05:39.600 --> 03:05:40.479 very rewatchable. 3224 03:05:41.000 --> 03:05:41.520 I agree. 3225 03:05:41.639 --> 03:05:43.840 Oh, in the Taking of Pelm. Sorry that's five. 3226 03:05:44.200 --> 03:05:48.360 Oh yeah yeah yeah. Second, I always forget that was 3227 03:05:48.399 --> 03:05:49.520 Tony Scott for some reason. 3228 03:05:50.680 --> 03:05:53.239 You shouldn't because when you watch it, it's very obvious. 3229 03:05:53.440 --> 03:05:54.040 It's very. 3230 03:05:58.159 --> 03:06:03.680 Yeah it's true, it's true. Yeah, okay, So my number 3231 03:06:03.719 --> 03:06:09.000 five is also a Tony Scott movie. It is Deja Vu. 3232 03:06:11.079 --> 03:06:18.399 What an impossibly perfect movie. Yes, Like I so the 3233 03:06:18.440 --> 03:06:20.319 first time I watched this, I gave it I think 3234 03:06:20.440 --> 03:06:22.159 like a seven out of ten or something, which is 3235 03:06:22.200 --> 03:06:26.799 still quite high, but like you know, crazy, right, And 3236 03:06:26.920 --> 03:06:31.120 then I saw like Zach had seen it, and Zach 3237 03:06:31.159 --> 03:06:33.120 gave it like super high, like a nine out of ten. 3238 03:06:33.200 --> 03:06:36.600 I was like, that's strange, so unusual that you'd like 3239 03:06:36.719 --> 03:06:39.000 this more than I did. And then I rewatched it 3240 03:06:39.079 --> 03:06:40.239 and I gave it a ten, and I was like, 3241 03:06:40.319 --> 03:06:42.200 this is perfect. What the fuck was I on when 3242 03:06:42.200 --> 03:06:42.840 I first watched? 3243 03:06:43.520 --> 03:06:44.600 This is so good? 3244 03:06:45.360 --> 03:06:50.440 Like deja vu is just so beautiful. It is like 3245 03:06:50.639 --> 03:06:53.360 that's the word I would describe it. That's it's it's beautiful. 3246 03:06:53.440 --> 03:06:55.559 It's got like I mean one, The esthetic of it 3247 03:06:55.760 --> 03:06:59.319 is just gorgeous. It has like all of those very 3248 03:06:59.399 --> 03:07:02.559 mellow blue and greens, but also like these these oranges 3249 03:07:02.600 --> 03:07:06.639 and yellow tinges to them. It's very hazy, kind of 3250 03:07:06.719 --> 03:07:13.120 like a dream, absolutely gorgeous. Tony Scott crafted the aesthetic 3251 03:07:13.159 --> 03:07:15.959 of this so so well, and I think this might 3252 03:07:16.040 --> 03:07:22.319 be the peak of his like two thousand style. And yeah, Denzel, 3253 03:07:22.479 --> 03:07:24.879 he gets to do everything that he's good at in 3254 03:07:24.959 --> 03:07:28.680 this movie. He gets to be charming and intimidating. He 3255 03:07:28.799 --> 03:07:31.879 gets to do like sweeping monologues, but he also gets 3256 03:07:31.920 --> 03:07:36.120 to do like smaller passionate line deliveries, and he's charismatic 3257 03:07:36.200 --> 03:07:42.680 and funny he's just a quintessential Denzel character. Like everything 3258 03:07:42.760 --> 03:07:45.520 that Denzel is good at is in this movie is 3259 03:07:45.639 --> 03:07:49.200 in this performance. And again, like we always said, the 3260 03:07:49.319 --> 03:07:53.239 cast for this is super good. There's like Adam Goldberg 3261 03:07:53.319 --> 03:07:57.559 and Matt Craven, Elden Henson, El Fanning, Val Kilmer's in 3262 03:07:57.639 --> 03:08:01.000 this movie. Bruce Greenwood's in this movie for like one scene. 3263 03:08:01.840 --> 03:08:06.000 You know, it's so good. And yeah, the concept is 3264 03:08:06.399 --> 03:08:09.440 crazy because like the sci fi aspect of this movie 3265 03:08:10.079 --> 03:08:12.559 creeps up on you if you didn't know it was 3266 03:08:12.639 --> 03:08:15.760 like a sci fi movie because it's just a regular 3267 03:08:15.879 --> 03:08:20.639 kind of detective procedural thing for a while. And then 3268 03:08:21.840 --> 03:08:26.719 you know, they start bullshitting him about like the technology 3269 03:08:26.799 --> 03:08:29.239 that they have. And I love that the movie kind 3270 03:08:29.280 --> 03:08:31.920 of trusts the audience to be on the same wavelength 3271 03:08:32.040 --> 03:08:34.440 because we're hearing it and you're sitting there going like, 3272 03:08:36.239 --> 03:08:39.719 doesn't sound right. That sounds like bullshit to me. And 3273 03:08:39.799 --> 03:08:42.040 then it's when so when he finally gets to call 3274 03:08:42.120 --> 03:08:44.000 it out and he does like the big speech you know, 3275 03:08:44.079 --> 03:08:47.280 where he smashes the monitor and he's like the monitor 3276 03:08:47.479 --> 03:08:50.520 is dead, so now is she dead or alive? And 3277 03:08:50.680 --> 03:08:53.040 he's doing that whole thing it's so good and it 3278 03:08:53.120 --> 03:08:58.680 feels so like cathartic as an audience. Yeah, it's brilliant. 3279 03:08:58.760 --> 03:09:01.040 It doesn't bother trying to explain too much of it 3280 03:09:01.159 --> 03:09:04.559 to you. It is very much like just an emotional ride. 3281 03:09:05.520 --> 03:09:10.159 And there's one like car scene, the car chase with 3282 03:09:10.319 --> 03:09:13.440 the helmet on. Anyone's seeing the movie knows the exact scene. 3283 03:09:13.600 --> 03:09:17.159 It is one of the most inventive and fun car 3284 03:09:17.319 --> 03:09:20.000 chase scenes I've ever seen in my life. There is 3285 03:09:20.200 --> 03:09:21.159 nothing else like it. 3286 03:09:21.680 --> 03:09:24.159 It's so good, best directed scenes that he ever did. 3287 03:09:24.600 --> 03:09:27.040 Yeah, it's and this movie just has such a like 3288 03:09:27.159 --> 03:09:33.520 an empathetic camera like that every shot feels so in 3289 03:09:33.760 --> 03:09:37.360 love with with the moment and every emotion that every 3290 03:09:37.479 --> 03:09:40.479 actor and every character is feeling, that camera picks up 3291 03:09:40.959 --> 03:09:45.280 in perfect quality. Yeah, it's it's brilliant. I love it 3292 03:09:45.399 --> 03:09:45.799 so much. 3293 03:09:46.799 --> 03:09:48.639 It's very good, which is why I'll talk about it 3294 03:09:48.760 --> 03:09:51.840 in a few minutes. My number four is one that 3295 03:09:51.879 --> 03:09:54.319 you already spoke on. I don't really have a ton 3296 03:09:54.440 --> 03:09:57.040 to add, but I actually have John Q here at 3297 03:09:57.120 --> 03:10:04.159 number four. This movie it's just so personal, I think 3298 03:10:04.239 --> 03:10:06.600 is the best way to put this. And being a 3299 03:10:06.959 --> 03:10:11.879 quintessential American through and through film about fuck the healthcare system. 3300 03:10:12.040 --> 03:10:12.799 We're all screwed. 3301 03:10:14.120 --> 03:10:15.840 It just means so much. It's like, it's why I 3302 03:10:15.920 --> 03:10:18.079 saw six as one of my favorite Saw movies. It's 3303 03:10:19.239 --> 03:10:22.040 the conceit of the healthcare system is killing all of 3304 03:10:22.120 --> 03:10:24.799 us and we're all just along for the ride is wild, 3305 03:10:25.399 --> 03:10:29.799 and it's it's leading to it's the fact that the 3306 03:10:29.920 --> 03:10:34.319 movie John Q. Is relatable for people is terrifying. That's 3307 03:10:34.319 --> 03:10:35.479 probably the way I should end that. 3308 03:10:36.040 --> 03:10:40.159 Yeah, yeah, this is like, how you know, John Q 3309 03:10:40.360 --> 03:10:42.079 Is so good though, So I have it on a 3310 03:10:42.159 --> 03:10:45.879 five star. It's seven, you know, out of fifty six. 3311 03:10:46.440 --> 03:10:49.120 It used to be three, but like a lot's happened. Yeah, 3312 03:10:50.920 --> 03:10:53.399 And I've never struggled with any of like any of 3313 03:10:53.440 --> 03:10:56.200 that because we have the NHS, God bless and I 3314 03:10:56.280 --> 03:10:59.239 don't know anyone personally that has ever dealt with anything 3315 03:10:59.360 --> 03:11:01.200 like that. It's not even you know, within my rum 3316 03:11:01.280 --> 03:11:05.600 of possibility. And it's still powerful to me, you know, 3317 03:11:05.799 --> 03:11:09.200 a complete outsider of the situation. So it Yeah, it's 3318 03:11:09.559 --> 03:11:10.920 a very very powerful movie. 3319 03:11:12.079 --> 03:11:15.799 It is. I love it so much. Your number four, my. 3320 03:11:15.959 --> 03:11:21.239 Number four is training Day, which you spoke about briefly earlier. 3321 03:11:23.000 --> 03:11:24.559 Training Day is so good, dude. 3322 03:11:24.840 --> 03:11:25.399 Yeah, I. 3323 03:11:26.959 --> 03:11:29.079 Was it yesterday. I think it was yesterday other day 3324 03:11:29.120 --> 03:11:33.440 before I rewatched Training Day, and after I watched it, 3325 03:11:34.079 --> 03:11:36.479 I was like, fuck, that was so good, And I 3326 03:11:36.639 --> 03:11:39.079 went upstairs and I watched like a bunch of videos 3327 03:11:39.159 --> 03:11:42.959 on Training Day. It's funny you mentioned in your like 3328 03:11:43.120 --> 03:11:47.120 little segment that like, this movie you know is Denzel 3329 03:11:47.680 --> 03:11:51.360 and there's not. But originally, when the original director was 3330 03:11:51.520 --> 03:11:54.159 attached to it, it was going to be Matt Damon 3331 03:11:54.760 --> 03:11:59.239 and Sam Jackson, which I don't think works at all, No, 3332 03:11:59.520 --> 03:12:02.959 like at all, Like I don't think Matt Damon is 3333 03:12:04.040 --> 03:12:07.239 dweedy enough that Ethan Hawk could pull off at this time, 3334 03:12:07.680 --> 03:12:10.639 and Sam Jackson couldn't pull off evil enough. 3335 03:12:10.879 --> 03:12:14.280 I think. Well, and just like Ethan Hawk could not 3336 03:12:14.399 --> 03:12:15.959 have done it if it was like ten years later. 3337 03:12:16.079 --> 03:12:18.559 He was on that fool and polished by then. 3338 03:12:18.840 --> 03:12:22.280 Yeah, like at this very specific time, they needed Ethan Hawk, 3339 03:12:22.399 --> 03:12:26.719 which Denzel really pushed for behind the scenes, like he 3340 03:12:26.879 --> 03:12:29.440 really wanted Ethan Hawk for this thing, and he got 3341 03:12:29.520 --> 03:12:33.479 in the audition and stuff. But yeah, there were so 3342 03:12:33.559 --> 03:12:36.879 many people attached to the role of Jake before Ethan Hawk. 3343 03:12:37.000 --> 03:12:39.680 Obviously there was Matt Damon, they offered it to eminem 3344 03:12:40.719 --> 03:12:42.680 who turned it down because he was doing eight Mile, 3345 03:12:44.120 --> 03:12:47.959 which is funny because obviously you know doctor Dres in 3346 03:12:48.000 --> 03:12:54.719 this movie. They considered Tabby Maguire, Freddie Prince Junior, Paul Walker, 3347 03:12:54.760 --> 03:12:58.040 Scott Speedman, like just a bunch of people, but it 3348 03:12:58.159 --> 03:13:01.079 was always going to be Ethan Hawk, to be Yea, 3349 03:13:01.319 --> 03:13:05.000 and yeah, it had to be Denzel, Like he's so 3350 03:13:06.799 --> 03:13:10.399 terrifying in this movie in such a charming and sort 3351 03:13:10.440 --> 03:13:13.360 of way. It's like, this is what the devil is. 3352 03:13:14.559 --> 03:13:17.920 If the Devil was a person, it's Alonzo because he 3353 03:13:18.200 --> 03:13:21.760 is wicked through and through, but he does it all 3354 03:13:22.120 --> 03:13:27.159 with the most funny and charismatic like lines and smile 3355 03:13:27.600 --> 03:13:31.600 and feel to him that like you want to root 3356 03:13:31.680 --> 03:13:34.520 for him. You think maybe he isn't actually a bad guy. 3357 03:13:34.840 --> 03:13:38.200 The whole movie, you're like doubting everything that you're seeing 3358 03:13:38.280 --> 03:13:43.040 and witnessing because he's doing it so charismatically. And yeah, 3359 03:13:43.079 --> 03:13:45.639 there's a million quotes in this movie, just a million 3360 03:13:45.719 --> 03:13:48.239 of them. He is like every line he does in 3361 03:13:48.319 --> 03:13:51.079 this movie is like you can put it on your fridge. 3362 03:13:51.399 --> 03:13:55.840 It's brilliant, especially that like final scene, the very big speech, 3363 03:13:55.879 --> 03:13:59.559 which was mostly improvised as well. I remember seeing this 3364 03:13:59.639 --> 03:14:03.200 clip someone has like the script next to the clip 3365 03:14:03.280 --> 03:14:05.360 of it, and it's like none of it matches at all. 3366 03:14:05.719 --> 03:14:10.319 Denzel got way off script for that final scene bit 3367 03:14:10.479 --> 03:14:13.799 like he's so good at it is such a powerful scene. 3368 03:14:15.000 --> 03:14:18.440 I quote it all the time. It's brilliant. It's so funny. 3369 03:14:20.239 --> 03:14:23.920 What's that? This movie just has like some weird stuff 3370 03:14:24.000 --> 03:14:26.239 going on with Like Macy Gray is in this movie 3371 03:14:26.319 --> 03:14:28.520 for a scene, like. 3372 03:14:28.559 --> 03:14:29.079 I've seen. 3373 03:14:31.159 --> 03:14:33.680 I've seen her a million times, right, I've seen this 3374 03:14:33.760 --> 03:14:36.239 movie a million times, and I didn't realize until two 3375 03:14:36.319 --> 03:14:39.559 days ago that it was Macy Gray and I was like, Fuck, 3376 03:14:39.600 --> 03:14:43.959 that's Macy Gray. That's crazy. Tom Bereringer is in this 3377 03:14:44.079 --> 03:14:46.280 movie for like one scene, which who is also in 3378 03:14:46.360 --> 03:14:48.959 that Flesh and Blood TV movie with Denzel, So there's 3379 03:14:49.040 --> 03:14:52.040 like there's a little reunite there. This was Terry Cruz's 3380 03:14:52.120 --> 03:14:58.040 first gig, YEP, because he was working security on the set. Yeah, 3381 03:14:58.079 --> 03:15:01.479 and there was like I want that to in the shot, 3382 03:15:02.079 --> 03:15:05.159 which makes sense because he does look terrifying in this movie. 3383 03:15:06.440 --> 03:15:08.879 They had like real crips on the set as well, 3384 03:15:09.120 --> 03:15:13.600 like for the authenticity, which is crazy. Even Mendez is 3385 03:15:13.840 --> 03:15:16.959 so like beautiful in this movie. This was the first 3386 03:15:17.040 --> 03:15:19.680 time I discovered I had a crush on even Mendez 3387 03:15:20.120 --> 03:15:22.159 was watching Training Day when I was like thirteen with 3388 03:15:22.280 --> 03:15:24.719 my brother and I was like, that is the perfect human. 3389 03:15:25.319 --> 03:15:29.280 That's what perfect people look like. And yeah, it's just 3390 03:15:29.399 --> 03:15:34.319 such a brilliant movie. Jake is such a fucking muster 3391 03:15:34.719 --> 03:15:38.000 in the in this movie, he a lot of gets 3392 03:15:38.040 --> 03:15:40.399 into small PCP on his first day on the job. 3393 03:15:41.079 --> 03:15:45.760 That's like, come on, man, just get up, just get 3394 03:15:47.159 --> 03:15:49.319 But you know, like it comes back around and yeah, 3395 03:15:49.360 --> 03:15:52.479 it's it's such a cathartic ending to the film as 3396 03:15:52.520 --> 03:15:55.559 well to a movie where like it just feels so miserable, 3397 03:15:56.399 --> 03:15:58.239 like the entire movie is miserable. 3398 03:15:59.040 --> 03:16:00.559 It's tensible threat. 3399 03:16:00.879 --> 03:16:02.799 Yeah. So yeah, it's brilliant. 3400 03:16:03.879 --> 03:16:06.799 Yeah, I love it too. My number three another one 3401 03:16:06.799 --> 03:16:10.799 that you've already spoke on going hard with a couple 3402 03:16:10.879 --> 03:16:14.000 of directors here at the end of course, Deja Vu 3403 03:16:14.280 --> 03:16:15.920 is at number three. I'm glad that you had it 3404 03:16:15.959 --> 03:16:18.520 to high as well. The one thing I want to add, 3405 03:16:18.920 --> 03:16:22.200 which you spoke on how they filmed that action scene 3406 03:16:23.440 --> 03:16:27.719 very specifically, the whole movie is about this very exploding 3407 03:16:28.120 --> 03:16:34.440 and the beauty that he captures in the actual explosion 3408 03:16:34.520 --> 03:16:38.360 in this is wild and something we are sorely missing 3409 03:16:38.399 --> 03:16:42.920 in movies in twenty twenty five, just like the practical No, 3410 03:16:43.079 --> 03:16:46.079 that's that is an actual fairy on a river being 3411 03:16:46.440 --> 03:16:53.799 fucking exploded and it looks amazing shot so wonderfully. Absolutely 3412 03:16:53.879 --> 03:16:56.520 wanted to highlight that because he deserves it. Deja vu. 3413 03:16:57.559 --> 03:16:59.200 It feels like DejaVu, because I would just want to 3414 03:16:59.200 --> 03:17:01.959 say everything that you said again. But for a movie 3415 03:17:02.040 --> 03:17:04.360 like this, with that type of conceit of the whole 3416 03:17:04.559 --> 03:17:08.959 time playing with time thing, way better than just like 3417 03:17:09.079 --> 03:17:11.200 reading the synopsis, it's so much better than you think 3418 03:17:11.200 --> 03:17:14.559 it would be. Yeah, it's it's a masterpiece. Love it 3419 03:17:14.680 --> 03:17:17.040 ten out of ten. Perfect movie. Yeah. 3420 03:17:17.079 --> 03:17:19.440 I don't think there's a single director that does like 3421 03:17:19.559 --> 03:17:22.760 explosions better than Tony Scott. I just don't. There's not 3422 03:17:22.799 --> 03:17:26.239 a single one. He's so fantastic of those action stuff. 3423 03:17:27.639 --> 03:17:30.319 And yeah, that the fairy explosion is brilliant. The whole 3424 03:17:30.479 --> 03:17:34.479 intro to the fairy explosion is just incredible because it's 3425 03:17:34.520 --> 03:17:37.639 a looks like a nature documentary like and the. 3426 03:17:37.760 --> 03:17:40.360 Choices that he made, like to go from shot to 3427 03:17:40.399 --> 03:17:42.840 shot to shot to actually be like, oh, here's what 3428 03:17:42.959 --> 03:17:46.600 we're doing. Oh shit, like yeah, such a perfect setup 3429 03:17:46.639 --> 03:17:47.159 for that. Yeah. 3430 03:17:47.639 --> 03:17:49.360 Yeah, it feels like he's more just set in a 3431 03:17:49.440 --> 03:17:53.920 scene just for like characters to walk into. Yep, you know, yeah, 3432 03:17:53.959 --> 03:17:55.520 it's so good, brilliant movie. 3433 03:17:56.120 --> 03:17:57.559 Yep, number three. 3434 03:17:58.280 --> 03:18:02.479 Number three is my favorite Tony Scott movie. Actually just 3435 03:18:02.559 --> 03:18:11.200 in general, it is Crimson Tide. I love. I love 3436 03:18:11.360 --> 03:18:15.920 Crimson Tide so much. This might be the Denzel movie 3437 03:18:15.959 --> 03:18:20.440 I have seen the most ooh interesting. Yeah, I put 3438 03:18:20.520 --> 03:18:27.959 on Crimson Tide all the time. Gorgeous movie, absolutely beautiful, 3439 03:18:28.079 --> 03:18:30.719 Like this is where, like Tony Scott I felt, was 3440 03:18:30.799 --> 03:18:33.639 starting to really play with colors, Like there are so 3441 03:18:33.879 --> 03:18:36.959 many like bright reds and greens and blues and stuff 3442 03:18:37.000 --> 03:18:40.719 in what should be realistically a very dull environment because 3443 03:18:40.719 --> 03:18:45.959 it's inside a submarine pretty much the entire runtime. And yeah, 3444 03:18:46.040 --> 03:18:48.760 this is the second time the Hackman and Denzel work together. 3445 03:18:49.399 --> 03:18:52.440 They work together in a Sydney Lumette movie called Power, 3446 03:18:52.680 --> 03:18:59.040 which is ungodly boring. And yeah, it's like just too 3447 03:18:59.399 --> 03:19:03.600 titan acting against each other, not even with like it 3448 03:19:03.719 --> 03:19:06.200 feels like they're competing in every scene to have the 3449 03:19:06.280 --> 03:19:09.879 better performance and it does depend on the scene who 3450 03:19:10.280 --> 03:19:13.079 is actually doing it. And it has like so much 3451 03:19:13.159 --> 03:19:17.440 to say about like old ideologies versus new ideologies and 3452 03:19:17.479 --> 03:19:20.799 the passing of torches and how we come to those agreements. 3453 03:19:20.920 --> 03:19:23.920 It's so tense. It is maybe one of the most 3454 03:19:24.079 --> 03:19:26.719 tense movies I've ever seen in my life. I have 3455 03:19:26.840 --> 03:19:29.319 seen it a million times, and I still every time 3456 03:19:29.360 --> 03:19:31.120 I'm watching it feel like I don't know how this 3457 03:19:31.280 --> 03:19:35.239 is gonna end. Everyone is right and everyone is wrong, 3458 03:19:35.959 --> 03:19:39.399 and yeah, it just has like some of the best performances. Again, 3459 03:19:39.559 --> 03:19:45.159 the cast is ridiculous for this movie. Let me pull 3460 03:19:45.239 --> 03:19:49.000 up this ridiculous cast. So again we have Matt Craven 3461 03:19:49.040 --> 03:19:55.760 who shows up a weird amount. There is vig On 3462 03:19:55.879 --> 03:19:59.239 Mortenson is in this movie, like he's very very young. 3463 03:19:59.440 --> 03:20:03.040 James Gett Gandalfhini is in this movie as well. He's 3464 03:20:03.600 --> 03:20:06.879 he's probably the best supporting actor in this movie. 3465 03:20:07.879 --> 03:20:09.079 He is like so. 3466 03:20:10.760 --> 03:20:14.920 Capturing in every single scene that he's in. I never 3467 03:20:15.079 --> 03:20:17.840 really feel like I know where his character is going, 3468 03:20:18.719 --> 03:20:24.079 Like it's such like a volatile performance. Yeah, yeah, I 3469 03:20:24.159 --> 03:20:29.040 love it so much. Beautiful movie, perfect movie. Everyone should 3470 03:20:29.040 --> 03:20:31.079 say it didn't. 3471 03:20:30.799 --> 03:20:34.040 Make my top ten, but this should be up there 3472 03:20:34.120 --> 03:20:36.239 for a lot of people. This is this is just 3473 03:20:36.360 --> 03:20:41.479 outside of mine A great Dad movie. Yeah, not much, 3474 03:20:41.600 --> 03:20:46.200 just Dad. It's pretty pretty perfect. It's pretty great. My 3475 03:20:46.319 --> 03:20:48.959 number two is yet again another one that you've mentioned, 3476 03:20:49.159 --> 03:20:56.040 and yet another Tony Scott that worries me. Man on fire. 3477 03:20:57.680 --> 03:21:02.040 This movie is so damn good. I appreciated everything that 3478 03:21:02.079 --> 03:21:04.159 you said about it, so I won't add too much 3479 03:21:04.239 --> 03:21:09.159 more other than the fact that it's been like widely 3480 03:21:09.559 --> 03:21:12.280 shared throughout the years that most of the scenes with 3481 03:21:12.440 --> 03:21:18.399 Denzel and Christopher Walkin were almost entirely improvised. Is stupid. 3482 03:21:18.639 --> 03:21:22.600 With how good they turned out in this, it should 3483 03:21:22.680 --> 03:21:25.840 not be anywhere near that good. And yet they both 3484 03:21:26.360 --> 03:21:30.280 just bring these completely different personalities and bounce off each 3485 03:21:30.319 --> 03:21:32.680 other wonderfully in the way that they should be. It's 3486 03:21:32.760 --> 03:21:37.559 like reverse chemistry in a way, and it could have 3487 03:21:37.639 --> 03:21:40.159 gotten jittery or lost in what they were dealing with 3488 03:21:40.319 --> 03:21:43.799 each other, but it just ends up being a masterclass 3489 03:21:43.959 --> 03:21:50.479 in improvising. Denzel is putting on this aura of just 3490 03:21:50.799 --> 03:21:53.479 I am the man and I'm here to control everything 3491 03:21:53.600 --> 03:21:56.840 throughout this entire film, because it's a revenge film, Like 3492 03:21:56.959 --> 03:22:00.440 there's a lot of focus on Fanning in this of course, 3493 03:22:00.559 --> 03:22:05.319 and supposedly he like fell in love with her acting 3494 03:22:05.399 --> 03:22:08.399 on this movie even yeah, it's just everything all eyes 3495 03:22:08.399 --> 03:22:11.120 were on her, but really, at the end of the day, 3496 03:22:11.239 --> 03:22:14.840 it's him protecting this entire set from start to finish, 3497 03:22:15.159 --> 03:22:19.399 delivers an amazing movie. I am very due for a 3498 03:22:19.479 --> 03:22:21.079 rewatch on this one, but this has been high on 3499 03:22:21.120 --> 03:22:23.040 my Denzel list ever since the moment I saw it. 3500 03:22:23.120 --> 03:22:25.639 And funny enough, you said Crimson Tid's one that you 3501 03:22:25.680 --> 03:22:27.719 watch the most. I think The Fire is probably the 3502 03:22:27.760 --> 03:22:29.559 one from him that I've seen the most threat of 3503 03:22:29.639 --> 03:22:33.959 years because it is like infinitely rewatchable and just entertaining 3504 03:22:34.079 --> 03:22:37.479 for moment one. And Tony Stott is a fucking master 3505 03:22:37.600 --> 03:22:38.079 in this film. 3506 03:22:38.280 --> 03:22:41.600 Tony Scott will do that to you. It's no wonder 3507 03:22:41.959 --> 03:22:45.440 and also to be Dakuater and Denzel got to link 3508 03:22:45.520 --> 03:22:48.680 back up in Equalize the Three Yeah, two years ago, 3509 03:22:48.760 --> 03:22:49.680 which is quite cute. 3510 03:22:50.559 --> 03:22:54.680 Very I'm worried if we're sailing towards the same number one, or. 3511 03:22:54.719 --> 03:22:57.840 If I think we are. But what's made me upset 3512 03:22:57.959 --> 03:22:59.959 is I know that my number two is not present 3513 03:23:00.159 --> 03:23:02.520 on your top ten. I was really holding now that 3514 03:23:02.600 --> 03:23:05.280 we have the same top two. It hurts because I 3515 03:23:05.399 --> 03:23:07.520 know we're going to have the same top the same 3516 03:23:07.639 --> 03:23:10.319 number one for sure. It feels like to me and 3517 03:23:10.399 --> 03:23:15.879 nol brainer, So my number two is American Gangster by 3518 03:23:16.000 --> 03:23:26.680 Ridley Scott. Yeah, yeah, perfect movie, absolutely perfect. Russell Crowe 3519 03:23:27.559 --> 03:23:34.000 and Denzel above so equally incredible in this movie. It's 3520 03:23:34.559 --> 03:23:37.600 so odd to me that for as many times as 3521 03:23:37.959 --> 03:23:41.479 Denzel linked up with Tony Scott, he's only linked up 3522 03:23:41.479 --> 03:23:45.479 with Ridley Scott twice now with Gladiator two, but up 3523 03:23:45.600 --> 03:23:51.079 until Gladiator two just once, especially later on. Yeah, especially 3524 03:23:51.239 --> 03:23:54.319 like the performance that he gives in American Gangster as 3525 03:23:54.360 --> 03:24:03.479 well the true story of Frank Lucas, the only intimidating 3526 03:24:03.559 --> 03:24:07.319 man in a brown suit ever. He looks like a 3527 03:24:07.399 --> 03:24:11.079 principle for all of this movie, and he is scary 3528 03:24:11.280 --> 03:24:18.360 as fuck, like Alonso is maybe the scariest character you know, 3529 03:24:18.520 --> 03:24:22.040 he's ever done. But Frank Lucas is very very close. 3530 03:24:22.959 --> 03:24:30.639 Like his act, like his nonchalance to violence is horrifying. 3531 03:24:31.440 --> 03:24:34.559 He is not scared of nothing or no one. The 3532 03:24:34.680 --> 03:24:38.159 one scene with just Elbert in like on the Street 3533 03:24:38.920 --> 03:24:42.559 is I'm not gonna spoil that scene, but it's a 3534 03:24:42.719 --> 03:24:49.319 very very good scene. And he does the craziest thing 3535 03:24:50.079 --> 03:24:53.319 on the sunniest day in Harlem. It is the sunniest 3536 03:24:53.360 --> 03:24:56.520 day on the busiest street, and he does not care 3537 03:24:57.200 --> 03:25:03.799 a single bit. Some of the best performances that Denzel 3538 03:25:04.040 --> 03:25:06.639 has ever given. I have at least four gifts that 3539 03:25:06.760 --> 03:25:10.600 I regularly use that come from this movie. Russell Crowe 3540 03:25:10.760 --> 03:25:14.040 is obviously fantastic in this movie. The cast again, I 3541 03:25:14.120 --> 03:25:16.399 mean it's a really scott movie, so you know, it's incredible. 3542 03:25:16.479 --> 03:25:20.239 So like Ti Hotels in this one, Josh Browling, Cuban 3543 03:25:20.280 --> 03:25:24.440 good Junior, Cuba Gooding, Junior Ted Lavine's in this movie. 3544 03:25:25.040 --> 03:25:28.239 John Hawk's Rizza is in this movie. I always forget 3545 03:25:28.280 --> 03:25:30.159 that Rizz is in this movie. It's so weird that 3546 03:25:30.239 --> 03:25:33.639 he's in this movie. Also Ti in Common above in 3547 03:25:33.719 --> 03:25:36.639 this movie, which I think is so odd. It just 3548 03:25:36.760 --> 03:25:41.920 elba as I already mentioned, it's just like Carla Gugina 3549 03:25:42.360 --> 03:25:46.040 is in this movie. Like it's a ridiculously stacked cast, 3550 03:25:46.159 --> 03:25:50.760 Like everyone is a star in this movie. And yeah, 3551 03:25:50.920 --> 03:25:55.239 it's a it's brilliant. It's the only movie I think 3552 03:25:55.440 --> 03:25:57.719 to this day where like I will only watch the 3553 03:25:57.799 --> 03:26:00.719 director's cut because I just need more of it. Every time. 3554 03:26:02.159 --> 03:26:05.719 Makes sense. So no, it is not on my top ten. 3555 03:26:07.000 --> 03:26:13.200 Here's my reasoning. I don't love Russell Crowe. Ever, this 3556 03:26:13.440 --> 03:26:15.239 is the thing that I like him the most in. 3557 03:26:15.520 --> 03:26:23.239 I just don't love Russell Crowe. Fine, he's no Ethan Hawk, 3558 03:26:23.559 --> 03:26:24.280 That's all I'll say. 3559 03:26:25.000 --> 03:26:27.120 Well, yeah, I think Ethan Hawk is better in Training 3560 03:26:27.239 --> 03:26:29.280 Day than Russell Crowe is in American Gangster. 3561 03:26:29.479 --> 03:26:32.799 But I get it. I'm glad. I'm glad you love it. No, 3562 03:26:32.879 --> 03:26:36.719 we don't have the same number two number one? Then 3563 03:26:36.920 --> 03:26:43.120 are we ready? Yeah? So Spike Lee's Malcolm X. We mean, 3564 03:26:43.879 --> 03:26:49.360 of course this is first off, if you've never seen it, 3565 03:26:49.440 --> 03:26:51.639 this is a long movie, but you should still watch it. 3566 03:26:51.680 --> 03:26:52.639 Don't let that intimidate you. 3567 03:26:52.799 --> 03:26:54.319 Like Trade in a half hours or something. 3568 03:26:54.760 --> 03:26:57.200 Yeah, I think it's three twenty or three twenty five, 3569 03:26:57.760 --> 03:27:01.159 nineteen ninety two, directed by Spike Lee. Spike Lee is 3570 03:27:01.319 --> 03:27:04.200 a big part of this movie, acting as well. But 3571 03:27:04.559 --> 03:27:08.719 the main three that steal this whole movie Denzel Angela 3572 03:27:08.760 --> 03:27:13.639 Bassett and the incredible Delroy Lindo. Delroy Lindo first of all, 3573 03:27:13.920 --> 03:27:15.760 if he's in the movie, he is going to be 3574 03:27:16.959 --> 03:27:22.559 amazing and no matter what he's in. But the the 3575 03:27:22.719 --> 03:27:29.000 dedication to telling this story in this way is perfect 3576 03:27:29.159 --> 03:27:31.959 through and through in this entire thing, all the way 3577 03:27:32.040 --> 03:27:37.239 down to like the like the iconic recreation of the 3578 03:27:37.680 --> 03:27:42.120 shot of him looking out the curtains, like goosebumps when it. 3579 03:27:42.200 --> 03:27:46.040 Happens, so natural, because like even if you I remember 3580 03:27:46.079 --> 03:27:49.319 seeing the still screenshot of that and I you know 3581 03:27:49.600 --> 03:27:51.879 for a second, you have to process whether it's the 3582 03:27:51.959 --> 03:27:54.520 real photo or not. It's so uncanny. 3583 03:27:55.600 --> 03:27:58.600 Yeah, it's it's seeing that, especially the first time when 3584 03:27:58.639 --> 03:28:01.840 it was the color screenshot of the still, It's like, huh, 3585 03:28:03.000 --> 03:28:06.680 it was weird. But yeah, Denzel, obviously he's He's carrying 3586 03:28:06.719 --> 03:28:10.280 this entire film. He is Malcolm X. He is delivering 3587 03:28:10.319 --> 03:28:13.520 a performance that will never be topped in his career, 3588 03:28:13.600 --> 03:28:16.559 couldn't be topped. It's a three and a half hour 3589 03:28:17.000 --> 03:28:23.600 just perfect, stone cold, absolute, like career best performance from 3590 03:28:23.680 --> 03:28:27.600 somebody who only delivers career best. So many of Denzel's 3591 03:28:27.600 --> 03:28:31.120 performances people would dream of having that be their best 3592 03:28:31.200 --> 03:28:33.799 and it's not even his best, and most of them. 3593 03:28:34.799 --> 03:28:40.200 Spike is in another planet making this movie. This movie 3594 03:28:40.280 --> 03:28:44.719 is directed so beautifully, like the style that he gets 3595 03:28:44.879 --> 03:28:47.799 from many of the shots in this obviously he's always 3596 03:28:47.840 --> 03:28:53.040 a stylish director, but this one is it's special, Like 3597 03:28:53.200 --> 03:28:57.639 it captures the time, the zeitgeist, the themes, the emotions, 3598 03:28:57.799 --> 03:29:03.719 the like, the political holicies in very deep detail that 3599 03:29:03.840 --> 03:29:11.079 you just don't expect to feel resonate so heavily. I've 3600 03:29:11.120 --> 03:29:13.440 shown this movie to many, many people, and every single 3601 03:29:13.520 --> 03:29:19.040 time it's just people memorized, mesmerized. Again. Long movie, but 3602 03:29:19.840 --> 03:29:22.879 it's one that if you have not seen choose a 3603 03:29:22.959 --> 03:29:25.319 day any day, make it a time to be able 3604 03:29:25.360 --> 03:29:28.000 to enrich your life with three and a half hours 3605 03:29:28.040 --> 03:29:30.799 of Spike because you deserve it. Yeah. 3606 03:29:31.079 --> 03:29:35.239 Like, Also, what I find so fascinating about Malcolm X. 3607 03:29:36.040 --> 03:29:39.680 I've read Malcolm X's autobiography, which is what this movie 3608 03:29:39.760 --> 03:29:43.559 is loosely based on. I think I've read it a 3609 03:29:43.639 --> 03:29:46.319 couple of times because I find Malcolm X just such 3610 03:29:46.360 --> 03:29:50.200 a fascinating character just in life, you know, in history. 3611 03:29:50.319 --> 03:29:56.760 He's such an interesting figure, and his life very much 3612 03:29:56.840 --> 03:30:00.600 does lend itself to a film format because his life 3613 03:30:00.799 --> 03:30:04.360 really feels like a three act structure, you know, like 3614 03:30:04.440 --> 03:30:07.639 he starts out with like the gangster stuff and when 3615 03:30:07.680 --> 03:30:09.959 he was a criminal, and then the second part of 3616 03:30:10.040 --> 03:30:12.280 his life where you know, he's part of the Nation 3617 03:30:12.399 --> 03:30:15.559 of Islam and then you know, you have the final 3618 03:30:15.680 --> 03:30:18.399 part of his life where he leads it leaves the 3619 03:30:18.479 --> 03:30:21.280 Nation of Islam and stuff like that. And I feel 3620 03:30:21.360 --> 03:30:27.600 like Malcolm X does get misrepresented a lot in just 3621 03:30:28.399 --> 03:30:31.719 history tellings and the way people quote him and the 3622 03:30:31.799 --> 03:30:34.600 way people like talk about him. You know, they they 3623 03:30:34.719 --> 03:30:37.120 talk about like him and Martin Luther King, like you know, 3624 03:30:37.200 --> 03:30:41.120 they are two sides of the same that. Yeah, and 3625 03:30:41.719 --> 03:30:45.959 Malcolm X is just such a layered and interesting person. 3626 03:30:46.399 --> 03:30:50.079 Like this movie does not pretend that everything that Malcolm 3627 03:30:50.200 --> 03:30:53.120 X has ever said or ever done is perfect, you know, 3628 03:30:53.319 --> 03:30:56.239 even when he was like being a civil rights leader, 3629 03:30:56.319 --> 03:31:00.879 where like everything is kind of that's where his life 3630 03:31:00.959 --> 03:31:03.799 is highlighted. Even then, Like he had a lot of 3631 03:31:03.920 --> 03:31:06.959 questionable behaviors, he had a lot of questionable ideologies, and 3632 03:31:07.000 --> 03:31:09.079 the movie never shies away from any of that. Is 3633 03:31:09.319 --> 03:31:14.360 it is such an earnest look at such a interesting 3634 03:31:14.440 --> 03:31:20.799 and layered man in Denzel just crushes every single aspect 3635 03:31:20.920 --> 03:31:25.120 of it, like every aspect of it. And obviously because 3636 03:31:25.159 --> 03:31:27.440 it's a long movie, it's a dramatic movie about a 3637 03:31:27.600 --> 03:31:32.520 very powerful and dramatic figure in life. So you expect 3638 03:31:32.559 --> 03:31:34.719 it to be kind of like, you know, a very 3639 03:31:34.840 --> 03:31:38.120 theatrical and dramatic movie, but it also can be very funny. 3640 03:31:38.239 --> 03:31:41.399 He can also be very lighthearted. The scene where he 3641 03:31:41.520 --> 03:31:43.920 first gets like that the poem put in or whatever, 3642 03:31:44.680 --> 03:31:47.120 and you know it like burns his head whatever he 3643 03:31:47.200 --> 03:31:48.840 has to stick his head in, like the bowl of 3644 03:31:48.879 --> 03:31:52.600 water or whatever. It's so funny. And when he's wearing 3645 03:31:52.639 --> 03:31:56.040 like those big extravagant suits with like Spike's character and 3646 03:31:56.200 --> 03:32:00.200 like they're walking like doing that stupidly, it's like it's 3647 03:32:00.360 --> 03:32:04.959 so good. And yeah, I don't think Spike could ever 3648 03:32:05.040 --> 03:32:08.200 top this movie. Like as much as I think Spike 3649 03:32:08.280 --> 03:32:12.200 Lee is a top tier director, there is something in 3650 03:32:12.280 --> 03:32:15.920 this movie that just feels beyond him. Yeah, you know, 3651 03:32:16.159 --> 03:32:19.760 like this could be in Spielberg's catalog and still be 3652 03:32:19.840 --> 03:32:22.840 considered like the best Spielberg. It could be in William 3653 03:32:22.879 --> 03:32:26.159 Freedkin's catalog and be considered the best freakin movie. Like 3654 03:32:26.319 --> 03:32:32.680 it is just something otherworldly and everyone is completely committed 3655 03:32:32.799 --> 03:32:36.280 to making it as good as it is. And yeah, 3656 03:32:36.840 --> 03:32:40.319 it's such a powerful and crazy movie. 3657 03:32:41.879 --> 03:32:44.879 I glossed over her kind of but again, Angela Bassett 3658 03:32:46.000 --> 03:32:49.920 incredible in this movie. Unlike an emotional cornerstone that you 3659 03:32:50.040 --> 03:32:52.280 really need in some of the scenes that she is 3660 03:32:52.559 --> 03:32:57.239 delivering in this. Yeah, this movie is beautiful. It is 3661 03:32:58.520 --> 03:33:04.959 well written too. I god Arnold Pearl and Alex Haley 3662 03:33:05.000 --> 03:33:09.760 wrote this with Spike, but yeah, great stuff. Like literally 3663 03:33:09.840 --> 03:33:11.840 through and through in this movie. There's literally nothing I 3664 03:33:11.879 --> 03:33:14.120 would change, nothing I could take out, nothing I could add, 3665 03:33:15.600 --> 03:33:17.000 just the the perfect movie. 3666 03:33:18.440 --> 03:33:22.000 Yeah, I just I am so beyond words for it. 3667 03:33:22.079 --> 03:33:25.079 I wanted to rewatch this like before we got to this, 3668 03:33:25.200 --> 03:33:26.719 but I just didn't have time to watch a three 3669 03:33:26.719 --> 03:33:29.360 and a half hour movie. But I will be watching 3670 03:33:29.399 --> 03:33:30.600 it again next week. 3671 03:33:30.680 --> 03:33:30.879 I am. 3672 03:33:31.079 --> 03:33:33.399 I've been trying to show my fiance this movie forever, 3673 03:33:33.879 --> 03:33:36.120 but as we both known, she's like a TikTok addict, 3674 03:33:36.319 --> 03:33:38.200 so having her sit down and watch a three and 3675 03:33:38.200 --> 03:33:41.079 a half hour biopic about Malcolm X is not going 3676 03:33:41.159 --> 03:33:45.879 down smoothly. But I'll, you know, because we're engaged now, 3677 03:33:45.959 --> 03:33:47.719 I have a lifetime to weigh you down on this. 3678 03:33:49.200 --> 03:33:49.520 I will. 3679 03:33:49.799 --> 03:33:51.600 I will get her to watch this eventually, but I 3680 03:33:51.680 --> 03:33:55.600 will be I'll be watching this again next week. Yeah. 3681 03:33:55.840 --> 03:33:57.879 It's one of those movies where like I don't rewatch 3682 03:33:57.959 --> 03:34:00.159 it often because it is just so heavy and it 3683 03:34:00.280 --> 03:34:04.200 is long, granted, but like as soon as I saw it, 3684 03:34:04.559 --> 03:34:07.600 I knew it was number one without a doubt, like 3685 03:34:07.840 --> 03:34:09.440 and that will never shift. 3686 03:34:10.000 --> 03:34:13.760 Yeah, we're gonna go through a couple that are close 3687 03:34:13.840 --> 03:34:15.200 on our list because I kind of want to hear 3688 03:34:15.239 --> 03:34:17.760 what else krit has close as we do that. Anybody 3689 03:34:17.799 --> 03:34:20.280 that's still watching, did you have a different number one? 3690 03:34:20.360 --> 03:34:22.040 If it wasn't Malcolm X, what is it? Let me 3691 03:34:22.079 --> 03:34:25.280 know in the comments? So, I know you mentioned quite 3692 03:34:25.280 --> 03:34:27.120 a few of mine were in like the thirteen to 3693 03:34:27.479 --> 03:34:32.920 sixteen range? What else was close? I know your Book 3694 03:34:32.959 --> 03:34:33.760 of Eli at eleven? 3695 03:34:36.559 --> 03:34:38.399 Where is Book of Ela? It's quite like it's that 3696 03:34:38.520 --> 03:34:39.040 thirty eight. 3697 03:34:39.639 --> 03:34:41.639 Wow, that's higher than I expected. I'm gonna be honest. 3698 03:34:41.719 --> 03:34:43.879 That movie is not good. Yeah. 3699 03:34:44.719 --> 03:34:48.399 The thing about that movie is Gary Oldman and Denzel 3700 03:34:48.440 --> 03:34:51.600 are very good in it. So if you ignore how 3701 03:34:51.879 --> 03:34:57.000 horrifically ugly and how stupid it is, it is quite fun. 3702 03:34:57.760 --> 03:34:59.680 What an argument for the film it is? 3703 03:35:00.040 --> 03:35:02.639 I'm not I'm not kidding. It's the ugliest movie I've 3704 03:35:02.639 --> 03:35:07.280 ever seen. It's it is abysmal looking, Like I don't, 3705 03:35:07.680 --> 03:35:10.040 I don't, I couldn't achieve it if I wanted to 3706 03:35:10.399 --> 03:35:12.360 if I was making a movie, I don't think I 3707 03:35:12.440 --> 03:35:15.799 could possibly make it look that dog shit. I like, 3708 03:35:16.040 --> 03:35:18.760 it's the only is the kind of horrific that only 3709 03:35:18.840 --> 03:35:24.559 comes around on accident. It's yeah, it's crazy. Anyway, Right, 3710 03:35:25.840 --> 03:35:28.200 we'll go from We'll go from twenty five and I'll 3711 03:35:28.280 --> 03:35:32.479 just like shoot. So twenty five we have Remembered the Titans. 3712 03:35:34.159 --> 03:35:37.520 Twenty four is the Equalizer two, which is the highest, 3713 03:35:37.760 --> 03:35:43.639 my favorite Equalizer movie. Then we have Antoine Fisher highest 3714 03:35:43.639 --> 03:35:45.120 to lowest at twenty two. 3715 03:35:45.959 --> 03:35:47.360 Pretty high. Nice. Yeah. 3716 03:35:48.319 --> 03:35:50.639 At twenty one we have The Taking of Pelham one, two, three, 3717 03:35:51.879 --> 03:35:54.319 and then entering the top twenty we have Cry Freedom. 3718 03:35:56.239 --> 03:35:59.879 At nineteen we have Much Ado About Nothing, which is 3719 03:36:00.159 --> 03:36:04.840 my one of my favorite Shakespeare adaptations ever, again you know, 3720 03:36:05.280 --> 03:36:09.920 tracing back Denzel doing Shakespeare. And then at eighteen we 3721 03:36:10.040 --> 03:36:13.239 have a really really underrated one which is a soldier story. 3722 03:36:14.440 --> 03:36:15.920 This is the main one that I was going to 3723 03:36:15.959 --> 03:36:18.399 bring up as you were done, because I think you're 3724 03:36:18.399 --> 03:36:21.799 gonna mention it. The soldier story is super underrated. Oh yeah, 3725 03:36:22.399 --> 03:36:23.159 really great movie. 3726 03:36:23.600 --> 03:36:27.360 Far more people need to see a soldier story. Denzel's 3727 03:36:27.440 --> 03:36:31.399 like not even he's barely supporting. He's in like two 3728 03:36:31.520 --> 03:36:34.200 or three scenes, but like still really good in it, 3729 03:36:34.319 --> 03:36:37.760 but the whole movie is like very very good. At seventeen, 3730 03:36:37.799 --> 03:36:39.719 we have Inside Man. Like we said, I forgot to 3731 03:36:39.760 --> 03:36:42.200 say this when you were talking about this, but like 3732 03:36:43.479 --> 03:36:47.399 you were, you were saying like that Spike avoids what 3733 03:36:47.520 --> 03:36:50.079 this movie could have been in the other hands. And 3734 03:36:50.239 --> 03:36:53.200 I was going to say that if Inside Man was 3735 03:36:53.280 --> 03:36:58.239 made today, it would be a Netflix movie. Yep, it 3736 03:36:58.280 --> 03:37:01.399 would just be straight Netflix and it would have some 3737 03:37:02.280 --> 03:37:05.760 nameless director that Netflix knew they could just control with 3738 03:37:06.040 --> 03:37:09.680 like just a very boring and unoriginal cast, and it 3739 03:37:09.760 --> 03:37:12.440 would have nowhere near the flavor that this movie does. 3740 03:37:12.959 --> 03:37:16.799 Spike Lee and its cast really save it. So Yeah, 3741 03:37:17.760 --> 03:37:23.639 sixteen is Glory. Fifteen is Philadelphia, which I was shocked 3742 03:37:23.799 --> 03:37:26.120 wasn't in your top ten because every time I talk 3743 03:37:26.159 --> 03:37:29.159 to people about Denzel movies, Philadelphia is always in their 3744 03:37:29.239 --> 03:37:30.959 top ten, and I thought I was going to get 3745 03:37:31.000 --> 03:37:35.000 flacked for not having it in there. Fourteen is Devil 3746 03:37:35.040 --> 03:37:42.399 in a Blue Dress. Thirteen is The Hurricane, which is, yeah, 3747 03:37:42.479 --> 03:37:47.600 one of the most underrated Denzel movies ever, directed by 3748 03:37:47.680 --> 03:37:52.719 Norman Jewison, who also did another dnsalm. He did a 3749 03:37:52.799 --> 03:37:57.719 soldier story, yep. But yeah, it's about a real life boxer, 3750 03:37:58.680 --> 03:38:03.479 Rubin Carter, Ruben the Hurricane Carter, who was wrongly in 3751 03:38:03.520 --> 03:38:07.079 prison for murder, and it's about like his trial of 3752 03:38:07.280 --> 03:38:09.959 like getting out of prison and stuff. It's a it's 3753 03:38:10.000 --> 03:38:12.719 a very very very good movie if you haven't seen it. 3754 03:38:13.520 --> 03:38:19.440 At twelve is Gladiator two and eleven is one that 3755 03:38:19.520 --> 03:38:24.280 I've really was shocked wasn't in your top five? Really, Fences. 3756 03:38:26.319 --> 03:38:29.680 It's good. It's just it's not the top ten. It's 3757 03:38:29.719 --> 03:38:33.200 not It's not that special for me. I think. 3758 03:38:34.040 --> 03:38:36.760 Granted, Fences is it's based on a play, right, It's 3759 03:38:36.799 --> 03:38:39.559 directed by Denzil based on a play that he did. 3760 03:38:40.799 --> 03:38:45.360 I am a big theater guy, not like musical kind 3761 03:38:45.360 --> 03:38:48.600 of Broadway theater, but like real just like stage acting theater, 3762 03:38:48.760 --> 03:38:53.280 and I loved Fences already as a stage play, so 3763 03:38:53.680 --> 03:38:56.719 I was bound to love this, especially with like Viola 3764 03:38:56.799 --> 03:39:00.399 Davis's performance in this movie, who I think again is 3765 03:39:00.440 --> 03:39:02.760 one of the few times where Denzel gets out acted. 3766 03:39:02.840 --> 03:39:05.200 I think Viola Davis eats him up in that movie. 3767 03:39:05.319 --> 03:39:09.319 Yeah that makes sense, only to all shout out, since 3768 03:39:09.360 --> 03:39:12.120 you brought up soldier story, Uh, these are nowhere near 3769 03:39:12.159 --> 03:39:15.280 the top ten, but I feel like are massively underrated. 3770 03:39:15.399 --> 03:39:20.559 In his filmography. Courage Underfire is pretty damn good, a 3771 03:39:20.639 --> 03:39:23.840 big one. I feel like people just forget exist. Ricochet 3772 03:39:24.120 --> 03:39:24.840 is he was. 3773 03:39:24.840 --> 03:39:27.399 Gonna say Ricke. I'm I was like looking at it 3774 03:39:27.520 --> 03:39:30.239 at my screen. I was like, he's gonna say Ricochet. Yeah, 3775 03:39:30.399 --> 03:39:32.000 Rickochet is so fucking good, dude. 3776 03:39:32.520 --> 03:39:35.399 I Well, the big thing is I love John Lithgow, 3777 03:39:35.600 --> 03:39:38.280 So anything with John Lithgow is already like, oh okay, 3778 03:39:38.319 --> 03:39:40.040 so it's a three star film even if you suck 3779 03:39:40.079 --> 03:39:42.280 it up. And Ricochet is like pretty damn good. 3780 03:39:42.399 --> 03:39:48.000 Actually, yeah, Rickochet is so fun. Dude's still iced tea 3781 03:39:48.079 --> 03:39:48.639 in that movie. 3782 03:39:50.159 --> 03:39:55.120 And it's got that scene at the outside wherever it 3783 03:39:55.239 --> 03:39:57.680 is where Denzel is holding the gun on him and 3784 03:39:57.840 --> 03:40:02.680 like completely disrobes to show that he's such like he's 3785 03:40:02.840 --> 03:40:05.239 just so freaking bold. I gotta love that movie. 3786 03:40:05.600 --> 03:40:08.079 Yeah, dude, Ricochet is so much fun. 3787 03:40:11.159 --> 03:40:11.559 What else? 3788 03:40:11.879 --> 03:40:14.559 Because I'm looking at my thing his The Magnificent Seven, 3789 03:40:14.600 --> 03:40:18.159 that Antoine Fuqua remake. Yeah, I actually like it a lot. 3790 03:40:18.200 --> 03:40:21.239 I know, like because people love the original Magnificent Seven 3791 03:40:21.399 --> 03:40:24.200 and it's seventh Samurai whatever. Some people don't love this 3792 03:40:24.319 --> 03:40:26.559 one as much, but I think if you just take 3793 03:40:26.600 --> 03:40:28.520 it in a vacuum and not as a remake of 3794 03:40:28.959 --> 03:40:31.239 what people consider a perfect movie, it is a really 3795 03:40:31.319 --> 03:40:33.200 fun time. It's one of the few times as well 3796 03:40:33.239 --> 03:40:36.479 where Chris Pratt is like actually really bearable. He's like 3797 03:40:36.600 --> 03:40:39.479 quite charismatic in it. And also it reunites Ethan Hawk 3798 03:40:39.520 --> 03:40:40.959 and Denzel True True. 3799 03:40:41.760 --> 03:40:45.920 I love the phrase really bearable. That's like when I 3800 03:40:46.000 --> 03:40:54.120 buy that shirt, my size is extra medium. Yeah, baking 3801 03:40:54.159 --> 03:40:57.159 of shirt. Ronnie wants to know what your British shirt is. 3802 03:40:57.440 --> 03:41:04.360 It's just a shirt, which is Yeah. I didn't even 3803 03:41:04.399 --> 03:41:05.920 buy this from US, so I ordered this. 3804 03:41:07.760 --> 03:41:08.239 Just so you know. 3805 03:41:08.319 --> 03:41:10.639 I didn't see this in the world. I searched for 3806 03:41:10.799 --> 03:41:12.360 this just just so we all know. 3807 03:41:12.680 --> 03:41:14.520 Oh, chrit, I love it. 3808 03:41:15.879 --> 03:41:18.959 What else is good? I think the Mighty Quinn. I 3809 03:41:19.040 --> 03:41:21.000 think a lot more people would like The Mighty Quinn. 3810 03:41:21.600 --> 03:41:24.840 It's super underrated. Yeah, he has like a Jamaican accent. 3811 03:41:25.639 --> 03:41:30.040 He basically plays like a detective trying to Yeah, he's 3812 03:41:30.079 --> 03:41:37.680 doing like an investigation in Jamaica. And it's really really good. Also, 3813 03:41:37.840 --> 03:41:41.879 like it has the you know, the what's that boring 3814 03:41:41.920 --> 03:41:45.680 guy's name from the Complete Unknown. 3815 03:41:48.639 --> 03:41:51.920 The Boring Guy for the completed note, that's really funny. 3816 03:41:52.399 --> 03:41:55.879 The guys based on what's his fucking l there we 3817 03:41:56.000 --> 03:41:59.959 go bobbed him. He has the song the Mighty Quick 3818 03:42:00.879 --> 03:42:03.479 but they do like a remix of it and it's 3819 03:42:03.520 --> 03:42:06.200 really nice. So yeah, that's very good as well. 3820 03:42:09.239 --> 03:42:11.159 This has been really fun. We had a lot more 3821 03:42:11.200 --> 03:42:16.520 crossover than I expected. Yeah, it's good stuff.
