Speaker 1: You are now listening to the Someone's Favorite Productions podcast Network.
Speaker 2: Hello there, and welcome back. What is this place? Is connected? Disconnected?
Speaker 2: It's connected, disconnected, disconnected, disconnected, disconnected, disconnected, disconnected, disconnected, disconnected, disconnected, disconnected, disconnected.
Speaker 2: I'm starting to feel disconnected. You'll break the number that
Speaker 2: has been disconnected.
Speaker 3: Hey there, and welcome to another live Thursday Night Reconnected,
Speaker 3: and this time with another first time guest.
Speaker 2: I've been getting a lot of those lately, the one
Speaker 2: and only.
Speaker 3: Mister Michael Byers from The Shameless Picture Show. Thank you
Speaker 3: for coming, of course, thank you for having me. I'm excited.
Speaker 2: It's an honor.
Speaker 3: Love your show, love you, Love that we've been able
Speaker 3: to get this done. I genuinely feel like I've been
Speaker 3: counting down to the state for quite some time.
Speaker 2: So so grateful that you're here. Yeah, especially because I
Speaker 2: had to reschedule the last one because I my wife
Speaker 2: to see Rosemary's Baby in the theater.
Speaker 3: So I get it. Yeah, it's all right. I've heard
Speaker 3: it's an okay movie.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know it's it's pretty good with a crowd.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would love to see with a crowd. I
Speaker 3: gotta say I've only ever seen it at home and
Speaker 3: I don't love it. I'm wondering if I would like
Speaker 3: you better in a theater. First of all, it's.
Speaker 2: A movie that's grown on It's a movie that my
Speaker 2: mother really was hot on when I was young and
Speaker 2: showed it to me at a relatively young age, that
Speaker 2: in Psycho, and I just thought, yeah, that was a movie.
Speaker 2: But it's a movie that's really grown on me over
Speaker 2: the years. And then seeing it in theaters with almost
Speaker 2: a packed crowd just kind of re solidified that movie
Speaker 2: a little bit for me. Yeah, that makes sense. I
Speaker 2: need to do it.
Speaker 3: I will do it hopefully at some point if there's
Speaker 3: an option available. One shout out in the chat Ronnie
Speaker 3: confer if this is correct, I believe it's Ronnie's birthday.
Speaker 2: Happy birthday.
Speaker 3: If it is, I think it is Happy Birthday, Ronnie.
Speaker 2: Let's break down first. What is the Shameless Picture Show? Oh? Right?
Speaker 2: So The Shameless Picture Show is a film analysis podcast
Speaker 2: that I started with my former co host, Nick Richards.
Speaker 2: We met each other at the Beloite Film Festival. Funny enough,
Speaker 2: he was living in We're both from Wisconsin. He was
Speaker 2: living in Maryland at the time, and we loved talking
Speaker 2: movies with each other, and with there being a long distance,
Speaker 2: it was not always easy to do. So we started
Speaker 2: that podcast, and it was started with the conceit of
Speaker 2: every cinophile, whether they want to admit it or not,
Speaker 2: has a list of shame, a list of movies that
Speaker 2: they have not seen for one reason or another, and
Speaker 2: it was a place for us, in a very non
Speaker 2: judgmental way to get together admit, hey, I haven't seen this,
Speaker 2: and let's talk about it. Because sometimes, you know, there's
Speaker 2: really big films that if or anything like me, you
Speaker 2: put off. It's like, okay, yeah, I could see The Godfather,
Speaker 2: or I could see all the films that the god
Speaker 2: that ripped off the Godfather because I'm sure the godfathers
Speaker 2: it's not going anywhere true. And that's you know, so
Speaker 2: it's kind of nice to have to have an excuse like, Okay,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna sit down and I have to force myself,
Speaker 2: not force myself, but I'm choosing now to watch this
Speaker 2: instead of something else that's on the pile, or you
Speaker 2: know what have you.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a it's a conceit that I think is important.
Speaker 3: It's one that everybody, everybody has, even though many people
Speaker 3: seem to not.
Speaker 2: Want to admit it.
Speaker 3: Everybody, I don't know, it is subjected to certain levels
Speaker 3: of ridicule, of actual shame and then like very personal shame.
Speaker 3: So much so that in not every industry this is
Speaker 3: a problem, but genuinely around film, there's so many people
Speaker 3: that will literally lie about having seen something just because
Speaker 3: they don't to be looked down on for that type
Speaker 3: of sentiment.
Speaker 2: But I don't I don't get it now. I'm sure
Speaker 2: like back when I was in film school, when you
Speaker 2: didn't want to be that person, I'm sure. Like The
Speaker 2: Apocalypse now is the film that I remember like people
Speaker 2: being like, oh, we've seen Apocalypse now. I'm like, yeah,
Speaker 2: just don't ask.
Speaker 3: Me any questions, right, I can't explain anything from it,
Speaker 3: but it's a it's a good movie. Yeah that that
Speaker 3: that sort of thing is so odd, and you know,
Speaker 3: it is a sense of shame for many people. But Jesus, uh,
Speaker 3: so many of the films, you know, we might talk
Speaker 3: about them tonight when they're on either of our lists,
Speaker 3: because that's what we're gonna share after the conversation is
Speaker 3: more of a conversation about the Shameless Picture Show and
Speaker 3: films on our shameless they they might be films that
Speaker 3: we're going to delight in the fact that the other
Speaker 3: person still gets the opportunity to see it for the
Speaker 3: first time. That's got to be a sense of enjoyment
Speaker 3: for you, when you get to show these films to people.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, it's it's especially now when it's a film that
Speaker 2: neither of us have seen, but I try to stick
Speaker 2: to the rule that one of us should not have
Speaker 2: seen it. I've broken that rule. I've also I've also
Speaker 2: slightly broken that rule where it's happened where we're supposed to.
Speaker 2: I'm supposed to do an episode and then it falls through,
Speaker 2: and then it happens later on, so we'll technically I've
Speaker 2: seen this movie now, but I'm still gonna count it
Speaker 2: like I have that happening soon. With Clueless, for example,
Speaker 2: I'd never seen Clueless Master, but I have, and I
Speaker 2: was supposed to do an episode on it and the
Speaker 2: guests fell through, and we'll just fine. It happens sometimes.
Speaker 2: But then I have Millie de Cheriko wanting to come
Speaker 2: on and discuss it, and I was like, well, even
Speaker 2: though I've seen Clueless now, I'm still doing this episode.
Speaker 3: Because it was brand new for the show too, exactly interesting. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: I bet that's that's gotta be fun just to discover
Speaker 3: things through that. So we'll get we'll get into some
Speaker 3: more like broad thoughts on the show and some of
Speaker 3: your experiences. Was seeing some of these for the first time.
Speaker 3: But let's talk about things other than that.
Speaker 2: What else?
Speaker 3: What else have you done in your history that's related
Speaker 3: to the film industry that I might be leading you
Speaker 3: to answers so that we can talk about things that
Speaker 3: start with the tea and rhyme with that movie you Roma.
Speaker 2: Well I saw. I think I mentioned that I went
Speaker 2: to film school. I'm one of those film school people,
Speaker 2: and I loved my time there. I went to the
Speaker 2: University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, and they have a very experimental
Speaker 2: film program. Like you're not gonna go to UWM and
Speaker 2: necessarily learn how to be a gaffer. No, you're gonna
Speaker 2: instead study the film's a stand brackage, and you're gonna
Speaker 2: watch things like Wavelength and analyze it and discuss it.
Speaker 2: So like they're really good about putting a camera in
Speaker 2: your hand, like a like a BULLX camera and having
Speaker 2: you go out and shoot stuff and experiment Uh. But
Speaker 2: like many people I had, I had a love for
Speaker 2: Hollywood cinema to extent and then also just exploitation and horror.
Speaker 2: Uh So I made a little, a little film called
Speaker 2: From the Darkness Theater and it actually did very well.
Speaker 2: It played at phil phil En Celemo. I can't pronounce
Speaker 2: his name, the guy from I know. I know the
Speaker 2: name of his horror film festival, the Housecore Horror Film Festival.
Speaker 2: I cannot think of the band that he's in.
Speaker 3: Uh it is u Pantera Pantera, Yes, you can tell them.
Speaker 2: Don't listen to the band very much.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 2: It played at his film festival, played before Suspiria, and
Speaker 2: it actually played at the Can Film Festival. Uh. And
Speaker 2: while there, I traveled there by myself. Uh. And I
Speaker 2: met a lot of weird people and I'm at Lloydko
Speaker 2: of all people at King Yeah, he was shooting his
Speaker 2: Occupy Can documentary at the time, which I think he's
Speaker 2: finally getting around to finishing. And I met also Liam
Speaker 2: Reagan of of Refuse I always want to say Recluse,
Speaker 2: and that's the wrong name. Refuse Films. Met him there
Speaker 2: when he was still trying to get Banjo made. I
Speaker 2: think he made the short film of it. He was
Speaker 2: playing Toxi at the time, and I just hit off
Speaker 2: with a lot of those guys and I hung out
Speaker 2: with them through a lot of because I couldn't do much,
Speaker 2: you know, I was nobody. I could walk around the
Speaker 2: the the area where they're also they're selling films, but
Speaker 2: I couldn't do anything like you couldn't even so each
Speaker 2: country when you're at the cann Film Festival, each country
Speaker 2: has its own little oasis. It's like a couple of
Speaker 2: tenths set up where you can go and relax, have
Speaker 2: a drink network. The United States had one of these
Speaker 2: little oasis set up, but you can only get in
Speaker 2: if you're on their list, so I couldn't get in,
Speaker 2: So I hung out Canada all the time. They were nice,
Speaker 2: they let me in.
Speaker 3: I'm not shocked about either of those two things, by
Speaker 3: the way, exactly, the very exclusive US and welcoming Canada.
Speaker 3: Very surprised can Trauma that is that is cool? So
Speaker 3: what else have you done with Trauma since then?
Speaker 2: So after that, I became an editor for Trauma. I
Speaker 2: was there, one of their first out of state editors.
Speaker 2: It was a very terrible system and how it came
Speaker 2: to be is actually kind of funny. Essentially, what they
Speaker 2: would do is they would Lloyd would anytime Lloyd would
Speaker 2: go anywhere film festival or he was camera came he's
Speaker 2: had a camera camo cameo on a movie, he'd bring
Speaker 2: his little camera with.
Speaker 3: Him, which is often by the way, Lloyd does say
Speaker 3: no to anything.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he'll he'll and he'll just go there and shoot
Speaker 2: a bunch of stuff and then pretty much say, cool,
Speaker 2: now that I have this footage, give it to one
Speaker 2: of our editors and make them make it educational. Yeah,
Speaker 2: he has no intention when he goes and shoots any
Speaker 2: of this stuff. But then you have to weave through
Speaker 2: it and find a story in it. And that was
Speaker 2: my job. And they would just I would mail them
Speaker 2: a hard drive, they would load it with footage, and
Speaker 2: they'd mail it back to me. It was a very
Speaker 2: weird system. What year was this. This was twenty thirteen
Speaker 2: through like maybe twenty fifteen, twenty sixteen. I stopped doing
Speaker 2: this right around the time that I met my wife.
Speaker 2: And originally they weren't even gonna like bring me on
Speaker 2: to do it. I emailed them asking if you know
Speaker 2: they're looking for an editor and they told me, no,
Speaker 2: you're not in New York. We can't really do much
Speaker 2: with you. I understood that Lloyd came to Chicago for
Speaker 2: Return to Newcomb High Volume one and wanted to get
Speaker 2: lunch with me. Man loves nachos. That's what every time
Speaker 2: I've ever had food with him, he gets nachos. And
Speaker 2: it was a fun conversation. We spent a lot of
Speaker 2: time talking about like Fellini films and things like that.
Speaker 2: And then at the end of it, I'm getting ready
Speaker 2: to leave and he goes, Michael, why aren't you editing
Speaker 2: for me? And I was like, because your team told
Speaker 2: me no, yeah, and he goes who. I was like,
Speaker 2: I don't know the person's name. He goes, you email
Speaker 2: me on Monday, and then I goes, there, edit that
Speaker 2: person off the team. Yes, And I would say, you know,
Speaker 2: he would personally watch everything I made, I cut and
Speaker 2: he'd send me notes. Sometimes they're written on a napkin
Speaker 2: and they would just take a picture of them and
Speaker 2: it would just be like at He'd write time codes
Speaker 2: and then in quotations a joke and I was like, Okay,
Speaker 2: he wants me to add this joke in there is
Speaker 2: what I usually assumed, But I got to do some
Speaker 2: cool videos I did there when they were at the
Speaker 2: Museum of Modern Art. They made a big video for it.
Speaker 2: He wanted me to edit that, and actually was. It's
Speaker 2: on the Classic Newcomb High The Subhumanoid Subhumanoid Meltdown Blu Ray.
Speaker 2: It's on there. So I have some of the stuff
Speaker 2: I edited on Blu Rays. I don't know how much
Speaker 2: of it's still around though, because their YouTube got nuked
Speaker 2: years ago. But I did videos where he interviewed Richard Stanley, Bruce,
Speaker 2: Le Bruce, a bunch of cool people, and it was
Speaker 2: a It was a fun little gig for a while.
Speaker 2: That is awesome.
Speaker 3: And what's funny is now their YouTube is back, and
Speaker 3: I feel like better than ever at the moment they're
Speaker 3: they're doing like actual interesting choices for for YouTube at
Speaker 3: which for Trova is not something I would have expected.
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, it's Lloyd's never gonna just He's never gonna stop.
Speaker 2: He's never gonna roll over. Even when their YouTube got nuked,
Speaker 2: he found a way, even with their streaming service, he's
Speaker 2: still the first one to be like, hey steal this movie.
Speaker 2: I don't care. Yeah, he's see his stuff.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and he's supportive of pretty much everybody. Like I said,
Speaker 3: he literally says yes to almost everything, which you can't.
Speaker 3: You can't say about everyone. There's a lot of people
Speaker 3: that will say no to everything.
Speaker 2: So yeah, so I I did that for a while.
Speaker 2: I did some freelance editing gigs all the while trying
Speaker 2: to make films and filmmaking is hard. It's especially when
Speaker 2: you don't have money, and I didn't have money to
Speaker 2: pump into it myself, and you get to a certain
Speaker 2: point you get sick of asking for favors. And I'm
Speaker 2: moved to a small town in Wisconsin, and I was
Speaker 2: really depressed because I was just far enough that the
Speaker 2: drive to the city to do things was it was.
Speaker 2: It was annoying, and I found myself just saying no
Speaker 2: to things, which is stupid, but you know, it happened.
Speaker 2: And then people stop calling you when you don't say
Speaker 2: yes to things, which is understandable. I did to myself.
Speaker 2: But I want I found myself kind of going through
Speaker 2: a rut trying to figure out what do I want
Speaker 2: to do? Yeah, I love film, but I I couldn't
Speaker 2: picture a path without filmmaking. So that's why I started
Speaker 2: the podcast. I thought it was like can I can
Speaker 2: I rediscover my love for film? And look where you
Speaker 2: are now. Yeah, I'm doing the Disconnected podcast with you.
Speaker 2: That's not moving up, but thank you. I there's there's
Speaker 2: other things.
Speaker 3: I mean, you're working on other projects right now that
Speaker 3: I'm so eager for people to hear about someday too.
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, I don't know. I don't. I feel like
Speaker 2: I know which one you're talking about in rhymes cook, Uh,
Speaker 2: that's the one. But I didn't know if we didn't
Speaker 2: know if we were talking about that yet.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm excited to see what else you know, reflecting
Speaker 3: back on a period of life that has led to
Speaker 3: so many connections for you, what what that means and
Speaker 3: what you can be able to really supply to other
Speaker 3: people that will be interesting enough for them to literally purchase.
Speaker 3: I'm excited to see that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I am too, And I'm excited to have you
Speaker 2: as a partner on this mystery project.
Speaker 3: Everybody's now gonna be like what the hell? Okay, Well, first,
Speaker 3: before we get into the next regular portions, Uh, you
Speaker 3: live in what is currently a like polar tundra. Wanted
Speaker 3: to to say, everybody, stay safe. It's gonna be a
Speaker 3: wild few days. My wife literally was meant to make
Speaker 3: dinner during my last stream so I could eat between
Speaker 3: the streams, and she got stuck at the grocery store
Speaker 3: for an hour and a half because everything is so
Speaker 3: packed right now. I had to scarf down to McDonald's
Speaker 3: cheeseburgers in a span of like ninety seconds.
Speaker 2: I didn't see I've been staring at you this entire time. Well,
Speaker 2: it was right before we went live, literally during the
Speaker 2: theme song.
Speaker 3: It has been intense. Yes, I am still a little hungry,
Speaker 3: thanks McDonald's.
Speaker 2: So yeah, stay safe out there.
Speaker 3: It's gonna be wild. We got to talk about this movie.
Speaker 3: So let's talk about this. What we've been watching recently?
Speaker 3: What have you seen the last couple of weeks?
Speaker 2: Oh right, so well, funny enough, you mentioned about Polar Vortex.
Speaker 2: I had tickets to go see Marty Supreme tomorrow and
Speaker 2: it just got canceled on me. Oh no, my wife
Speaker 2: what we just texted me when we were here. She's like,
Speaker 2: no movie tomorrow. I'm like, damn, it's that sucks all right,
Speaker 2: So last couple weeks, how far back do you want
Speaker 2: me to go? However much you want to talk about.
Speaker 3: But first, let's talk about the Testament of an Lee
Speaker 3: because I think I said that title like eighteen times
Speaker 3: during the last stream, and not because they were nominated
Speaker 3: for anything, but because I loved it so much.
Speaker 2: Tell me about the Testament of Anlee. What you thought? Oh,
Speaker 2: I love the Testament of Anilie. So my good buddy
Speaker 2: Austin Procter of the Frightmares podcast, he came and stay
Speaker 2: stayed with me over the weekend, and Testament of Anilee
Speaker 2: was one of the movies we saw. It took him
Speaker 2: to the most beautiful theater in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. It's called
Speaker 2: the Oriental Theater, and they were showing the Testament of Anilee.
Speaker 2: I'm seventy milimeter and I try to go to any
Speaker 2: seventy milimeter screening I can because I'm fortunate enough to
Speaker 2: have a theater that can project it. And I was
Speaker 2: floored by the Testament Aniley. I didn't I didn't one
Speaker 2: hundred percent know what I was getting into going in,
Speaker 2: going into it. I've not seen any of monofest folds
Speaker 2: directorial work, but I had seen The Brutalist, which I
Speaker 2: was a huge fan of, which she co wrote with
Speaker 2: Brady Corbet, who co wrote this film with her. Oh
Speaker 2: you have the picture pulled up? Look at that that
Speaker 2: This is called hosting. Yeah, so that's my my wonderful wife, Amanda,
Speaker 2: and the tall person in between us, that's Austin Procter
Speaker 2: is the Fright Maar's podcast. Look at the theater that's
Speaker 2: up in the balcony which they only opened during specific screenings,
Speaker 2: but I pulled some strings so we can get up there. Amazing.
Speaker 2: That's incredible. It's an incredible theater to see a movie in,
Speaker 2: and especially selimeter. Oh yes, and this this movie just
Speaker 2: looked gorgeous and I didn't quite know what to expect.
Speaker 2: The trailer that I saw kind of gave me folk
Speaker 2: horror vibes. Yeah, kind of reminded me of The Witch,
Speaker 2: which I didn't love when I first saw it, so
Speaker 2: I but I love folk horror, so like I was like,
Speaker 2: all right, I'm I'm still excited, I'm ready to go in.
Speaker 2: And I was just blown away by it. I love
Speaker 2: that you shout out the Witch.
Speaker 3: I've been telling people The Testament of an Lee because
Speaker 3: like nobody has seen it yet, because it just came
Speaker 3: out wide. I've been telling people it's as if Robert
Speaker 3: Eggers directed a cult a religious cult musical in a way.
Speaker 2: Yes, but me, but my wife and I were arguing
Speaker 2: of whether or not it actually counts as a musical.
Speaker 3: Technically, No, because it's not progressing the plot in any way.
Speaker 2: No, it's all this songs are relatively diegetic, and there
Speaker 2: are songs that they would be singing in the day
Speaker 2: to day life anyways, because the chefs were kind of
Speaker 2: a musical group and they it made even more evident
Speaker 2: by the fact that they're singing and it's driving everyone nuts.
Speaker 2: So but I understand why they classified it as a
Speaker 2: musical because I feel like if they didn't, it's it's
Speaker 2: almost feels misleading not to mention it. Yeah, in a way,
Speaker 2: I guess it'd be misleading because I feel like, I know,
Speaker 2: I know people who have a strong aversion to two musicals,
Speaker 2: and I feel like if they went to this not
Speaker 2: knowing that there's gonna be so much singing, they might
Speaker 2: feel like pulling the rug out. I don't. I personally
Speaker 2: don't think that, but I I feel like it was
Speaker 2: a promotional discussion.
Speaker 3: I mean, they're kind of doing it, uh forever, like
Speaker 3: they did it for Wonka they did it for what
Speaker 3: was the other one they hid last year?
Speaker 2: There was another one, shit, there was another musical last
Speaker 2: year that they hid. I don't remember.
Speaker 3: Anyways, it'll probably it's somebody, somebody in the chat will
Speaker 3: say it. I'm sure in just a more but yeah,
Speaker 3: it's it's seemingly becoming a thing that we're hiding things
Speaker 3: or musicals all at the same time while we're releasing.
Speaker 3: We're gonna talk about tonight, a Broadway musical that hit
Speaker 3: theaters this year that did okay that I saw in theaters.
Speaker 2: Love stuff like that. So yeah, glad you got to
Speaker 2: see this, and glad you liked it. Yeah, I really did.
Speaker 2: And I'm still trying to decide if I can put
Speaker 2: this on my if this goes on my twenty twenty
Speaker 2: five list or my twenty twenty six list, well, it
Speaker 2: is a twenty twenty five film, but it didn't have
Speaker 2: a wide release in twenty twenty five. That's where my
Speaker 2: like it is true problem comes in. It's not important,
Speaker 2: but it's something that it's I'm tossed in turning over it.
Speaker 2: Because I'm a nerd, I always classified as which oscars
Speaker 2: are they eligible form? That's fair that's fair. Then I
Speaker 2: guess I gotta take it off of my twenty twenty
Speaker 2: six list. You should, I think you should, so test
Speaker 2: in a band, Lee? What what else have you been watching? Oh? Right,
Speaker 2: So I'll kind of focus in on the time when Uh,
Speaker 2: actually no, I'll go back a little bit. So one
Speaker 2: thing that I've been doing since last years I realized
Speaker 2: that Steven Soderberger has made a fuck ton of movies
Speaker 2: and I've only up until I started this challenge, I
Speaker 2: already had only seen like five of them. I was
Speaker 2: going through his Wikipedia's, like, man, this man has never
Speaker 2: stopped working. Even when he said he was going to retire,
Speaker 2: he was still shooting second unit for like Hunger Games
Speaker 2: and things. So I thought, well, I'm gonna I'm just
Speaker 2: gonna go through his filmography in chronological order. Uh, And
Speaker 2: that has been I'm still within the his first five films,
Speaker 2: and they even those are all over the place, yep.
Speaker 2: Like you go from sex lizes and video Tape to Kafka,
Speaker 2: and then from there there's King of the Hill, which
Speaker 2: I think is a gem of a movie, even though
Speaker 2: he doesn't agree the underneath with Peter Gallagher, and then
Speaker 2: next to Schizopolis, which what a weird run film. So
Speaker 2: I've been working through the films of Steven Soderberg and
Speaker 2: as I said, I watched King of the Hill and
Speaker 2: The Underneath this year. I also watched The Hudsucker Proxy
Speaker 2: for the first time recently for an upcoming episode. Nice. Nice,
Speaker 2: he needs to tune into that so you can find
Speaker 2: out what he thought. Yes, And then over the weekend
Speaker 2: I watched the Herschel Gordon Lewis film The Gruesome Twusome.
Speaker 2: How'd you feel about that one? I liked It's it's
Speaker 2: not my favorite Herschel Gordon Lewis film, but I did
Speaker 2: quite like it. We chose it because it was like
Speaker 2: seventy two minutes long. Yeah, and it was the night
Speaker 2: that Austin got in it and he I don't think
Speaker 2: we got home until like ten o'clock, but it was
Speaker 2: like we weren't tired enough to go to bed. So
Speaker 2: it's like, okay, let's throwing a short movie. And The
Speaker 2: Gruse and Twsome won that. I saw the new Park
Speaker 2: chan Look film No Other Choice. Great movie. It is
Speaker 2: a great movie. And the way that they handle tone
Speaker 2: in that film, because it is it's a balancing act
Speaker 2: Oh yes, the dog that's walking around that. Her name
Speaker 2: is Frankenstein. She is thirteen years old. But because of that,
Speaker 2: she paces because she's old and has sore joints and
Speaker 2: it's too hard for her to get up and down,
Speaker 2: so she'd rather just walk around. Yeah. There she is.
Speaker 2: She's just walking her perimeter. Yeah good. Yeah, he's on guard. Yeah.
Speaker 2: We are much safer with her, so you're gonna see
Speaker 2: her walking around. But no other Choice, No Other Choice
Speaker 2: was a great time. They handled that tone expertly. The
Speaker 2: comedy never took away from the drama of the film,
Speaker 2: but it it got wild. I love No Other Choice,
Speaker 2: funny enough.
Speaker 3: I saw that and Testament van Lee in a span
Speaker 3: of two and a half days at the Saint Louis
Speaker 3: International Film Festival in November and loved them both.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that's essentially what happened was. I wasn't at
Speaker 2: the Saint Louis Film Festival, but it was the span
Speaker 2: of a day. Yeah, and they weird. We compliment to
Speaker 2: each other. Well I don't. I can't explain why, but
Speaker 2: it just felt right. Yeah, agreed. Uh, And then I'll
Speaker 2: be touching on this again a little bit later when
Speaker 2: we talk about things we picked up. But then I
Speaker 2: also watched the AGFA release of Amanda and the Alien.
Speaker 2: Fun movie, fun movie it is.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: We were walking around a local video store called Good
Speaker 2: Shit Video and my wife, who doesn't see her name
Speaker 2: mentioned very often, saw Amanda in the Alien and she's like,
Speaker 2: I don't know what this is? What I have to
Speaker 2: buy it, gotta do it. Yeah, So we watched it
Speaker 2: that night, and then I rewatched The CRUs Too something
Speaker 2: with the commentary track. I just had to. I had to.
Speaker 2: My twenty twenty six goal is if I watched something
Speaker 2: that I own a physical media, I I used to
Speaker 2: do this and I don't do it as much anymore.
Speaker 2: I need to complete the disc telling myself. Maybe not
Speaker 2: if every single commentary, because sometimes a disc will have
Speaker 2: like four or five. But I'm trying to be better
Speaker 2: about because that's the stuff that makes me love movies.
Speaker 2: And I don't know why I don't watch him as much.
Speaker 2: So I get that. I watched all the special features
Speaker 2: on The Gruesome Twosome and rewatched it with commentary.
Speaker 3: Nice, very nice? How the how was the commentary? Specifically
Speaker 3: commentary is good?
Speaker 2: It's got Mike Vrainy from something weird video, kind of
Speaker 2: moderating it, and he's just great about pulling questions out
Speaker 2: of Lewis, who has a when they recorded this was,
Speaker 2: which was back when the DVD came out. I believe
Speaker 2: he just had a really good memory about how a
Speaker 2: lot of things were. And I learned from this commentary
Speaker 2: that he had a very good working relationship with KFC.
Speaker 2: There's a lot of KFC product placement in Gris and
Speaker 2: Tis and a couple of his movies. And essentially what
Speaker 2: happened was he said, you, if you feed my crew
Speaker 2: for a couple of days, I'll put KFC logos throughout
Speaker 2: the movie. And he agreed, and then eventually Colonel Sanders
Speaker 2: was in one of his movies. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Uh, Hershel Gordon Lewis had a hell of an interesting life.
Speaker 3: That's one of the biggest things that people need to
Speaker 3: take away from his stuff. And one thing I'll shout out.
Speaker 3: I don't know if people have seen this or not.
Speaker 3: The Sean Baker interview of Herschel Gordon Lewis on the
Speaker 3: Criterion Channel is one of the greatest things to ever
Speaker 3: be on the Criterion Channel. And I do say that
Speaker 3: earnestly like it is genuinely beyond intriguing the entire time.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, Yeah, I think I feel like I watched that
Speaker 2: way back before you even kne who Sean Baker was. Yeah,
Speaker 2: he looked very young in the interview, that's for sure. Yes,
Speaker 2: And then any of the interviews that John Waters did
Speaker 2: with Herschel Gordon Lowis is also pretty great and funny enough.
Speaker 2: I reached out to Herschel Gordon Lowis back before he
Speaker 2: passed away. He was just a filmmaker I really admired,
Speaker 2: and I reached out and I fold he had a
Speaker 2: marketing business at the.
Speaker 3: Time yep, which by the way he started obviously, and
Speaker 3: everything that he did, he was super into marketing.
Speaker 2: I reached out to his marketing company and just said,
Speaker 2: I'm sorry this is inappropriate, but I'm just a big
Speaker 2: fan of your movies. Is there anyway I can get
Speaker 2: like an autograph photo? He emailed me back a very
Speaker 2: eloquent email that essentially said, if you send thirty dollars
Speaker 2: in a self address, signed envelope, I will send it one.
Speaker 2: It's so Herschel I had so little money. I could
Speaker 2: barely afford groceries at that time, so I was like, okay,
Speaker 2: I'll I'll get I'll circle back to this and he
Speaker 2: then died a couple months. Dang, that's rough timing. Yes,
Speaker 2: but I got to email him and that was still
Speaker 2: pretty cool that I mean, and you've got a response. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I got a response. It's it's it's all about prospective Ryan.
Speaker 2: It's like I never got to have John Waters on
Speaker 2: my podcast, but he personally said no to me, so
Speaker 2: that still feels like a win. I don't know if
Speaker 2: I should should say this.
Speaker 3: A couple of things over this last year has been
Speaker 3: really weird to me where somebody, especially for physical media,
Speaker 3: has asked me if I can find out if somebody
Speaker 3: would be interested in doing something for a disc and
Speaker 3: a lot of time, I'll say, yeah, I'll try, and
Speaker 3: it's somebody that I have no dream of ever being
Speaker 3: able to speak to in any way. One of the
Speaker 3: most surprising ones of this last year is somebody saying, hey,
Speaker 3: we'd love to get John Waters to talk about these films.
Speaker 3: Can we can we see if we can reach out
Speaker 3: to him and if you can get him. I was like,
Speaker 3: I don't think there's any way I'll be able to
Speaker 3: get to him, but I'll try.
Speaker 2: Within an hour, he was personally telling me no over email.
Speaker 3: It's like, how did I just get to your waters
Speaker 3: in like thirty four minutes?
Speaker 2: It was crazy actually, because he doesn't he's not an
Speaker 2: easy person to contact, Like he has this whole system
Speaker 2: where you if you have fan mail, you have to
Speaker 2: send it to a comic book store down the block
Speaker 2: from his house. Yep, no he uh. He personally declined
Speaker 2: the podcast and then tipped my former co host fifty
Speaker 2: Bucks personally declined. I mean that's that's a pretty great
Speaker 2: claim to fame.
Speaker 3: My big one like that over this last year was
Speaker 3: I got I got jim I Norski to get upset
Speaker 3: with me personally and raise his voice at me over
Speaker 3: the phone, which was fun.
Speaker 2: What did you do to piss off jim Way Norsky?
Speaker 3: We wouldn't pay for his uber in two different directions
Speaker 3: he has.
Speaker 2: He has blocked me on Facebook at least twice, and
Speaker 2: I have no I have never even encountered with him,
Speaker 2: so I don't even know why you had to unblock you.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, oh geez, anything else that you watched recently
Speaker 3: that you want to shut out?
Speaker 2: I watched together. That was a fun time, fun movie. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: I was not expecting as much humor in that film. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I'm not complaining though. I think I even said this
Speaker 2: in my letterbox review. So Dave Franco was in both
Speaker 2: Together and the film Neighbors, and they both share a
Speaker 2: very similar scene.
Speaker 3: I did not connect that. But that is true. That
Speaker 3: is absolutely true.
Speaker 2: I don't want to spoil either movie for someone. If
Speaker 2: you've not seen Neighbors and or Together, that's fun. Do
Speaker 2: a double feature. Yeah, it's a good movie. It's a
Speaker 2: good frank O day. Yeah, good movie. Check out together.
Speaker 2: One that quickly. I feel like people are forgetting just
Speaker 2: came out this last year because twenty twenty five is
Speaker 2: a good year for movies. It was. It is particularly strong,
Speaker 2: and not even just the big, highly acclaimed movies that
Speaker 2: are getting like the Oscars and everything, but just there
Speaker 2: was just a lot of fun stuff that came out. Yeah,
Speaker 2: even like some of the I didn't love, it's like
Speaker 2: I still had a good time with That's true. That
Speaker 2: is true.
Speaker 3: I had a lot that I I I've classified it
Speaker 3: as like I was definitely entertained and was glad that
Speaker 3: I saw them, but they were not good movies.
Speaker 2: Like what like what's one of the what's one of
Speaker 2: the ones that you had fun with but wasn't that great?
Speaker 2: Let me pull up my list? Oh oh god, well,
Speaker 2: I always forget the actual title of it. Uh the
Speaker 2: like rom com of the Sister's husband Died and the car. Gosh,
Speaker 2: one second, I watched too many movies. I gotta go
Speaker 2: down the list. It is.
Speaker 3: This is great TV. I'm so sorry regretting you entertained
Speaker 3: the entire film. Not a good movie, not a good
Speaker 3: movie at all.
Speaker 2: That's fair that that is one I hadn't Actually, I don't
Speaker 2: think I even heard of that one. It's one of
Speaker 2: the eighteen McKenna grace films that came out this year.
Speaker 3: Okay, fair enough, it's it's not good, but it is
Speaker 3: a fun watch for sure.
Speaker 2: Another one. Let's see, honey Don't like. I don't think
Speaker 2: this is a good movie, but I had a lot
Speaker 2: of fun watching it. I am a honey Don't defender.
Speaker 3: I think it is a very good movie, and a
Speaker 3: lot of people are not approaching it as if it's
Speaker 3: a send up of like Forty's Gumshoe Detective Fun Stories,
Speaker 3: which is very obvious because, oh my god, is Margaret
Speaker 3: Qualley's accent in that literally just pulled right out of a.
Speaker 2: Nineteen three more Like, No, you're absolutely right. So I
Speaker 2: just had such a great time with it. But like,
Speaker 2: I left that movie and I was like, I think
Speaker 2: I need to see this again because I really don't
Speaker 2: know how I'm feeling about it other than I had
Speaker 2: a great time with it.
Speaker 3: Super super innovative opening credits in Honey Don't as Well
Speaker 3: look weird thing to remark on, but I love the
Speaker 3: opening credits in Honey Don't.
Speaker 2: Credits don't get enough credit. But no, like and then
Speaker 2: there was just some little things that I feel like
Speaker 2: went really under the radar, like Splitsville. Splitsville was a
Speaker 2: something I hadn't even heard of, and it was probably
Speaker 2: the hardest I laughed all year.
Speaker 3: There's one scene in that that made me laugh maybe
Speaker 3: the hardest all year. The the roller coaster scene is
Speaker 3: probably the funny scene to come out of all of
Speaker 3: twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2: I did not enjoy the movie all that might oh see.
Speaker 2: I just that their their entire little fight sequence when
Speaker 2: they just when they agree that you know, knives are
Speaker 2: probably not a smart idea, just nearly took me off
Speaker 2: my couch.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true, the fight scene was pretty funny. It
Speaker 3: was a long fight scene too, so maybe it's better
Speaker 3: than I'm giving it credit for.
Speaker 2: All Right, I'll go into a couple.
Speaker 3: Of my recent watches because I had a shockingly large
Speaker 3: week compared to what I expected. And what's funny is
Speaker 3: this first film is three and a half hours long.
Speaker 3: But I'm gonna mention I showed my kids the Peter
Speaker 3: Jackson King Kong. I have always been a big defender
Speaker 3: of that movie. I adore that movie. Yeah, I love
Speaker 3: that movie. They had a blast with it. It was
Speaker 3: a good time. It is about as good as I remember,
Speaker 3: and I overrated more than most people.
Speaker 2: I love that movie.
Speaker 3: It's epic. I think it's well made. But my god,
Speaker 3: is the CGI really bad in it?
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, it's of its time. But I think I
Speaker 2: saw that movie in the theater twice because I was
Speaker 2: just I was really hot on it. It might be
Speaker 2: my favorite King Kong movie. I don't know. I have
Speaker 2: to really think about that.
Speaker 3: I love Kong School Island, but it's definitely the top
Speaker 3: Tyber three for me.
Speaker 2: However, and I saw King Kong for the first the
Speaker 2: reason I had I had to see the second time
Speaker 2: other than the fact that I loved it, was because
Speaker 2: the person I want to go see it with truly
Speaker 2: was not interested in seeing it and just played Grant
Speaker 2: Thottle three on his PSP the entire time. He sat
Speaker 2: in the back of the theater, and I'll like, why
Speaker 2: did you even come?
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's rough. I agree with the people saying
Speaker 3: that King Kong is too long. The big thing is
Speaker 3: getting to the island that should not take like fifty minutes.
Speaker 3: I agree that it like humanizes and gives you a
Speaker 3: reason to care about the people. But my god, we
Speaker 3: don't need forty five minutes of lead up to get
Speaker 3: to the boat and then some rough boat scenes and
Speaker 3: then suddenly we're on the island and now an hour
Speaker 3: into the film.
Speaker 2: That's fair. I don't feel like it bothered me at
Speaker 2: the time, but I've also probably not rewatched it in
Speaker 2: over a decade. Yeah, it's it had been a while
Speaker 2: for me.
Speaker 3: I love it, and even then, like the getting to
Speaker 3: the island, I like that part is just for the film.
Speaker 3: It wasn't needed, all right, What else? Let me pull
Speaker 3: back my list again. Oh, I finally watched a House
Speaker 3: of Dynamite from last year.
Speaker 2: Did you see that one the Catherine Bigelow? No, No,
Speaker 2: how was it?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 2: It's very well.
Speaker 3: She's an incredib director, so it's a very well made movie.
Speaker 3: I was happy with the structure of the film, which
Speaker 3: seems to be a lot of people's complaints. I understand
Speaker 3: that it takes away the weight a little bit of
Speaker 3: what is happening in the movie, but honestly, it was
Speaker 3: just compelling.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I feel like Catherine Bigelow just has my number a
Speaker 3: little bit in her movies, and it's like directed straight
Speaker 3: from me. I loved the first and third act of
Speaker 3: House to Dynamite more than the second act. And what's
Speaker 3: hilarious as all three acts are the same portion of
Speaker 3: the film, just done three times.
Speaker 2: But it's good.
Speaker 3: I was greatly appreciative to see the cast that she
Speaker 3: had in it. Truly loved seeing some of these people
Speaker 3: give her just really great performances, especially like Tracy Lett's
Speaker 3: seeing in a pretty important role was nice to see.
Speaker 2: Jared Harris always remarkable, hilarious to.
Speaker 3: See him in this and in Chernobyl and I don't
Speaker 3: want to spoil anything, but if you've seen either of
Speaker 3: those movies, the fact that he has the same outcome
Speaker 3: is crazy, And I guess your noble's on a movie.
Speaker 3: It's a limited series hell other things. That's true Reverence.
Speaker 3: We talked about this on the show a couple of
Speaker 3: weeks ago because they got a physical media release and
Speaker 3: it looked like it was what is the polite way
Speaker 3: to say this to make people not feel alienated? Oh,
Speaker 3: I know, red hat trailer, trash magaporn, That's exactly what
Speaker 3: it was.
Speaker 2: I did not like anything about this movie.
Speaker 3: I thought that they could have gone a lot of
Speaker 3: different ways, but it basically just lifted up the wrong
Speaker 3: characters and made somebody out to be a hero when
Speaker 3: they were just kind of a piece of shit. The
Speaker 3: entire movie and that sort of thing really grinds my gears.
Speaker 3: It made no sense whatsoever. Nothing about the movie was logical.
Speaker 3: Do not watch Reverence from twenty twenty five. It's a bad,
Speaker 3: bad movie.
Speaker 2: Good. I had no intention to smart Man. One that
Speaker 2: you should watch though. Clemency from twenty nineteen.
Speaker 3: This is a movie that is directed by her name
Speaker 3: is hard to say.
Speaker 2: It is Chinonia Chuck Wu.
Speaker 3: She is an incredible director for this movie and it
Speaker 3: is about an individual who is a warden at a prison,
Speaker 3: and the movie starts with an execution gone wrong and
Speaker 3: sort of traumatizes a bunch of people that were associated
Speaker 3: with that and the act of being a warden after
Speaker 3: having that happen, and how it affects your future decisions
Speaker 3: and humanizing prisoners.
Speaker 2: Very good movie.
Speaker 3: It is a little bit plotting, and I feel like
Speaker 3: the fact that we have the failed execution at the beginning.
Speaker 3: It sort of loses its emotional weight after that, but
Speaker 3: it's still a journey worth going on and really will
Speaker 3: hammer home how you should not go to prison and
Speaker 3: probably not work into prison. But it's fun movie, and
Speaker 3: fun not meant in a literal sense, like it's well
Speaker 3: made and you would have a good time watching it.
Speaker 2: And it's got Alfre ordered that's great. He is quite
Speaker 2: good in it.
Speaker 3: I also watched Your Sister Sister, the mumblecore movie from
Speaker 3: twenty eleven with Mark Duplas.
Speaker 2: And good movie.
Speaker 3: It is just shockingly well written, directed by Lynn Shelton,
Speaker 3: who is a master, very very well done. Yeah, Emily
Speaker 3: Blunt kind of weird accent work in the movie, but
Speaker 3: they sort of make it make sense by the end
Speaker 3: of it.
Speaker 2: Check it out. Good movie. I'm appreciative, but that I
Speaker 2: got to see it Stuugh. I like a couple of
Speaker 2: these I've never even heard of, So that was one
Speaker 2: of my goals this week is some very underseen movies.
Speaker 2: What was the name of that last one? Your sister's sister.
Speaker 2: I was quite fond of a lot of those mumblecore
Speaker 2: movies when they were first coming out. It's just they
Speaker 2: all just kind of worked for me.
Speaker 3: There is maybe the funniest moment in any mumblecore movie
Speaker 3: I've seen in this movie, and it's Mark Duplas trying
Speaker 3: to show people a condom.
Speaker 2: I'll just leave it at that. It is wildly funny.
Speaker 2: What I'm sold, I've I've got. I've added both of
Speaker 2: these two my lists because now I need to see them.
Speaker 3: Speaking of being sold, what have you been getting in
Speaker 3: lately for physical media?
Speaker 2: All right, I got it, I got. I have to
Speaker 2: do these in stacks. So there with me.
Speaker 3: By the way, I love all the people that have
Speaker 3: already tonight said how much you resemble Stanley Kubrick.
Speaker 2: I haven't caught those those comments, but I did a
Speaker 2: I led a panel a couple of years ago for
Speaker 2: a horror film festival and the photographer took a picture
Speaker 2: of me in just the right angle, and I was like,
Speaker 2: oh man, I okay, Stanley Kubrick nice all right. So
Speaker 2: these are these are in a weird order, so I'm
Speaker 2: just going off of them. So recently I got Let's
Speaker 2: Scare Jessica to Death. Brilliant movie. And I saw this
Speaker 2: movie years ago. I want to say it was on
Speaker 2: like two it's one point or something like that, ye,
Speaker 2: and it just really stuck with me. So when I
Speaker 2: found out that vinegar Syndrome put this little this little
Speaker 2: gem out, I knew I had to pick it up.
Speaker 2: And I wanted this nice slip cover. I love the pink.
Speaker 2: I think it's such a vibe. So a big fan
Speaker 2: of that. Also recently gotten this one. I got in
Speaker 2: as a review copy from Keena Larber. I got Diva Ooh,
Speaker 2: I need to see this one. Yeah. So I'm a
Speaker 2: big fan of the movie Betty Blue, which was directed
Speaker 2: by the same person I'm sure i'm gonna mispronounce. His
Speaker 2: name is Jean Jacques Benet Is how I've been going
Speaker 2: with it's this is the film he did before Betty Blue,
Speaker 2: and it sounds like it is a French crime film,
Speaker 2: which is perfect because I love French crime films. So
Speaker 2: Keena Larber just put this out in four K and
Speaker 2: it's absolutely stacked with special features everything. It's got a
Speaker 2: seen specific commentary, commentaries with the director itself, it has
Speaker 2: a arthor Simon Abrams does a commentary on here as well.
Speaker 2: It's it's got an introduction by Phil Prowie or sorry,
Speaker 2: Phil Powery, and it also just is stacked with interviews
Speaker 2: with pretty much everyone involved in this film. Nice. So
Speaker 2: I'm excited to dig into that. Picked up Dogma, good
Speaker 2: little indie film. Yeah, yeah, I've been holding on to
Speaker 2: my DVD copy for ages because no one knew what
Speaker 2: was gonna happen with this film. So I was walking.
Speaker 2: I was at a local video store called Good Shit Video.
Speaker 2: Make if you're listening, every anyone in Milwaukee, Wisconsin area
Speaker 2: should go to a Good Shit Video.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 2: He covered he has a lot of the boutique labels
Speaker 2: that we all know and love. He had this sitting
Speaker 2: on the shelf, So I was like, well, last time
Speaker 2: I tried getting it from Walmart, I couldn't because it
Speaker 2: was sold out. So this is my sign, then I
Speaker 2: need to buy Dogua. Nice. You guys, no please.
Speaker 3: I was gonna say, I'm kind of jealous because I'm
Speaker 3: really dying to see it on four K, but I
Speaker 3: don't have one yet because I ordered one from the
Speaker 3: Secret Stash to get to autographed by Jay and Silent
Speaker 3: Bob and their their run of it is not going
Speaker 3: to be in until like two and a half weeks
Speaker 3: from now, and so I'll be able to see it someday.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, I'm really excited to rewatch it because I
Speaker 2: it's been a long time since I've watched I feel
Speaker 2: like I had this paranoid feeling that something was going
Speaker 2: to happen to my DVD of it, so I never
Speaker 2: wanted to like watch it. I know that's like really
Speaker 2: a crazy thought. But now I have this new four
Speaker 2: K so I can watch as much as I want. Nice,
Speaker 2: that's awesome. It's cool that you you said you ordered
Speaker 2: your cope from the Secret Stash.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they were sharing it on uh on socials and
Speaker 3: they didn't have too many and I think that they
Speaker 3: did it twice and they both sold out like within
Speaker 3: a couple hours.
Speaker 2: The people that like, the people that work there are
Speaker 2: super are super nice, So I'm a big fan of
Speaker 2: the movie Vulgar, Brian Johnson's movie, and I emailed the
Speaker 2: store one time, just just saying once again, kind of
Speaker 2: got in to Hershall Gordon Lewis. It's like, is there
Speaker 2: any way I can get Brian to sign this? Yeah?
Speaker 2: And they email me back within fifteen minutes and they're like, yeah,
Speaker 2: just send us the uh, just send us the slip
Speaker 2: cover or like the card inside of it to this address.
Speaker 2: And he sent it back signed with a nice little notes.
Speaker 2: Look at that. That's awesome. Yeah, thirty bucks like Kirschwill,
Speaker 2: way better than Hersha Gordon. All right, So my next
Speaker 2: question was gonna be do you have a half priced
Speaker 2: books where you're at? Uh? We have I think two
Speaker 2: around here. Yeah, all right, I'm only asking because some
Speaker 2: of the stuff that I got next is it's from
Speaker 2: half priced books. I shockingly found Operation Condor the eighty
Speaker 2: eight films release at half priced books Region B. But
Speaker 2: I've got an all region player, so it's not a
Speaker 2: big deal. I was just surprised to see this sitting
Speaker 2: around on their shelves. Yeah, that's interesting. And then one
Speaker 2: of my hyper fixations when it comes to physical media
Speaker 2: is Burt Reynolds. He is my favorite actor. Ryan, you've
Speaker 2: heard all about my love for Burt Reynolds.
Speaker 3: And most of you should have by now because hopefully
Speaker 3: you've bought the physical Media Advocate with Burt Reynolds on
Speaker 3: the cover, where Mike had a really wonderful piece on
Speaker 3: the inside.
Speaker 2: So thank you for that. Michel, You're very welcome. So
Speaker 2: it's always my goal to it's my goal to eventually
Speaker 2: get every movie that he's ever been in. I've got
Speaker 2: a lot of the big ones, so now I'm kind
Speaker 2: of going through some of the less less popular ones.
Speaker 2: But I found some of them half price books. I
Speaker 2: didn't even know he was in these Universal Soldier two
Speaker 2: and three. Found this on DVD. All right, Mystery Alaska.
Speaker 2: That is a very common poster trope. Yes, a couple things.
Speaker 2: I just want to read what's all on the cover
Speaker 2: because it gets progressively funnier. So it starts off with
Speaker 2: a review of It's from Ted Goldenberg from Hawks TV.
Speaker 2: He calls it the Rocky of Hockey, which I just
Speaker 2: love saying. The next review is from Jason Miller of
Speaker 2: ABC TV. It's only TV people reviewing this. This is
Speaker 2: full of action, suspense and heart, And then write about
Speaker 2: the title from the director of Austin Powers.
Speaker 3: From the director of Austin Powers as wild, Gary says,
Speaker 3: make sure you have the Twilight's on collection because Bert
Speaker 3: is in an episode of that.
Speaker 2: I know, I'm I'm tracking. So there was a period
Speaker 2: of time where you could get just select episodes of
Speaker 2: Twilight Zone on DVDs. I want to get all of
Speaker 2: the Twilight Zone, but I'd like to find if they
Speaker 2: ever released his episode on a disc, so I put
Speaker 2: that in his section. That makes sense. And then the
Speaker 2: last thing I got for Burt Reynolds was The Johnson
Speaker 2: County War. It's a Hallmark Channel Western early Hallmark, like
Speaker 2: two thousand and two, so I don't think they're even
Speaker 2: a channel yet. It was written by the guy who
Speaker 2: did the Lonesome Dove series. HM. So interesting. I've got more.
Speaker 2: I can keep going if you want me to, but
Speaker 2: I just this was the first stack that I grabbed.
Speaker 2: Let's do a little sandwich action.
Speaker 3: Then I'll do mine because I don't have a ton
Speaker 3: like you, and then you can do a few more.
Speaker 3: Mine are kind of all over the place, but wanted
Speaker 3: to share a bunch coming in from Australia.
Speaker 2: These first two are not Australia.
Speaker 3: I got the second run DVD Blu Ray release of Manthon.
Speaker 3: This is an Indian film that they just put out
Speaker 3: in the UK a few months ago. Been eager for this,
Speaker 3: had this pre ordered with a couple of other things
Speaker 3: and it's finally here. Stoked on it. We are Can
Speaker 3: I show everything on here? Yes, we talked about this
Speaker 3: a couple of weeks ago. This is absolutely an adult release.
Speaker 3: This is the Ultra Flesh Archives release of wild Heart.
Speaker 3: This is the Leslie Winston collection. Everybody, if you are
Speaker 3: interested in loops or the Adult Fair, check this out.
Speaker 3: Support what they're doing over the Ultra Flesh Archives. Absolutely
Speaker 3: worth it. They have more in the works. And speaking
Speaker 3: of we'll say the Adult Fair of that, you should
Speaker 3: check out the Imprint Film's release of Intimate Confessions of
Speaker 3: a Chinese Courtisan and Lust for Love of a Chinese Courtison.
Speaker 3: Very eager to see these, have not seen either one.
Speaker 3: Some decent extras on the back. They've got Paul Fanner
Speaker 3: off on here talking about the first film. There is
Speaker 3: Intimate Confessions of Three Showgirls of PICTURETTE. Yeah these look
Speaker 3: these look really good. Actually, very excited about those. Look
Speaker 3: at that Dakota shouting out Ultra Flesh is so good.
Speaker 3: Love the commentary with Leslie Winston, and then a couple
Speaker 3: more from Imprint to go with the Shaw Brothers. Their
Speaker 3: four K release of Jackie Brown is in nice looking release.
Speaker 2: Here.
Speaker 3: Nothing on this as far as I'm aware that is
Speaker 3: not or nothing on this that is brand new, but
Speaker 3: it does compile a lot of the stuff for Jackie
Speaker 3: Brown that I love, so stoked on that and then
Speaker 3: loved their first sets. And here is shot Shock Volume
Speaker 3: two and other Shaw Brothers release from Imprint. These boxes
Speaker 3: are giant, but I mean this has the enchanting shadow
Speaker 3: of the Bride from Hell and the Ghost Lovers on here.
Speaker 3: One of these has not got a Blu Ray release otherwise,
Speaker 3: and so check these out if you're into it.
Speaker 2: The Shaw Brothers stuff has been excellent lately. Question did
Speaker 2: those fit on a shelf? They do? Yeah, they I
Speaker 2: mean they're thick, that's the big thing. But they're they're
Speaker 2: the same width. Okay, So uh, I have the Imprint
Speaker 2: never Ending story that they did and that doesn't even
Speaker 2: fit on my shelf.
Speaker 3: You know, I showed Jackie Brown, I could show kill Billy.
Speaker 3: This think is massive, but the big thing to show
Speaker 3: the size. So you talked about refuse films. Here's their
Speaker 3: release of Franken Hooker that Liam put out. You can
Speaker 3: see same height as the box set shot Shock, but
Speaker 3: look at the with difference.
Speaker 2: Their box sets are massive, monkey box, very very chunky.
Speaker 2: I love big boxes. Can you lie about that? No? Not,
Speaker 2: that's good. I didn't want to have to call the guy,
Speaker 2: all right, what else you got? All right? So I
Speaker 2: feel like I shouldn't talk about everything because I got
Speaker 2: a lot. But I'm gonna try to cherry pick this
Speaker 2: a little bit. This one was a complete blind by.
Speaker 2: I bought Bang the Drums Slowly, the cinematograph release. I
Speaker 2: love their curation. I just love the stuff they're putting out.
Speaker 2: Haven't bought many of their releases, just because they're dropping
Speaker 2: a lot of them pretty quickly. And I don't know
Speaker 2: what about this movie appealed to me. I don't like baseball,
Speaker 2: but I love baseball movies. This is true.
Speaker 3: I love that that said when just an hour ago,
Speaker 3: I was streaming live with the shirt that said Baseball
Speaker 3: a cinema.
Speaker 2: Maybe you can help me understand Baseball.
Speaker 3: I love the director of Baseball that I was on
Speaker 3: the show with but yes.
Speaker 2: Fair enough, all right, So yeah, I got banged the
Speaker 2: drums slowly that this one. I got a little bit ago.
Speaker 2: But my good friend Matt Harding, who was the regional
Speaker 2: warrior for Severn Films, I've been emailing because I'm working
Speaker 2: a con for him. Yeah. So Matt's a good dude.
Speaker 2: I met him a couple of years ago because of
Speaker 2: a video store that I don't know if they're still
Speaker 2: selling movies, but they're called blast Ratis here in Milwaukee.
Speaker 2: They put me in contact with him. He came up
Speaker 2: to Milwaukee to do a little event with a place
Speaker 2: called the x Ray Arcade. Uh, they're cool. They're they're
Speaker 2: like a little punk venue. They have a lot of
Speaker 2: punk shows and then they also do movies. I stopped
Speaker 2: in just to Hank, just to see him, and he
Speaker 2: hooked me up with this House of Psychotic Women box set.
Speaker 2: He made me an offer I couldn't refuse on it,
Speaker 2: and I just had to have this thing. And I'm
Speaker 2: grabbing yet because I'm but I'm gonna be uh digging
Speaker 2: into this very quick, very soon. I'm hoping. All right, Oh,
Speaker 2: I got this, and I know this is the movie
Speaker 2: The you're a fan of I got this into review.
Speaker 2: I got roof Man. It's incredible. Yeah, I got that
Speaker 2: four K in as well. Yeah, my mom actually saw this.
Speaker 2: And my mom's not one to go see movies since
Speaker 2: she's never heard of but uh, my best friend his
Speaker 2: mom drags my mom to movies and they went together
Speaker 2: to go see roof Man. So I got and I
Speaker 2: got this in. I was pretty stoked for it. Ah,
Speaker 2: here's one that I'm kind of excited about. I've had
Speaker 2: my eye on this for a while and I just
Speaker 2: never pulled the trigger I'm buying it. So when I
Speaker 2: found it like in person, I knew I had to
Speaker 2: leave the store with it. I got the American Horror
Speaker 2: Project Volume once from Arrow. I absolutely love The Witch
Speaker 2: You Came from the Sea. I haven't seen the other
Speaker 2: two films on here, but more than anything, I just
Speaker 2: love listening to Stephen Thrower talk about movies. Yeah, and
Speaker 2: a lot of times I'll buy things that he's on
Speaker 2: just because he's involved. But I know like he pretty
Speaker 2: much like curated this set, so I knew I wanted
Speaker 2: to have it. Uh, who's asking? Stan is asking if
Speaker 2: Ruthman is streaming?
Speaker 3: Rufman is a Paramount film, so if it was to
Speaker 3: be on Paramount Plus probably.
Speaker 2: Yes, I believe. I think it's actually on Prime. Okay,
Speaker 2: Oh no, I was wrong. You were right Pair month plus.
Speaker 2: Some reason I thought it was Prime. They both start
Speaker 2: with P that's why. Yeah, I just went it pops
Speaker 2: up on my Apple TV and I just see the
Speaker 2: little logo in the corner. Yep.
Speaker 3: Oh, Mike says it's also free on Prime. So maybe
Speaker 3: we were Oh.
Speaker 2: There we go. And then I'm gonna talk about two
Speaker 2: more things, two more things.
Speaker 1: Next.
Speaker 2: I picked up the four K of Flow the Criterion
Speaker 2: because we we just I just got this from the
Speaker 2: library not too long ago because I wanted to see it,
Speaker 2: completely enamored with it. I don't know if you saw it.
Speaker 2: Have you seen it? Yeah, I think it's just a
Speaker 2: cute little film, and I I liked it quite a bit.
Speaker 2: And I also love that it has another film from
Speaker 2: the same director called Away On This is so And
Speaker 2: then the last thing I will highlight because I've never
Speaker 2: seen it and I'm really excited for it. I got
Speaker 2: Underheart Ah, very nice. Yeah, this one I've never seen
Speaker 2: when I'm a sucker for Val Kilmer and actually listening
Speaker 2: to you and Brian talk about Val Kilmer quite a
Speaker 2: bit last week. I was pretty excited when I got
Speaker 2: this into review because it's one that it's it's one
Speaker 2: of the films that in this filmography that I've missed. Well,
Speaker 2: that and multiple names that have sadly left this mortal
Speaker 2: coil over the last year. Graham Green for sure, perfect
Speaker 2: time to check it out. And then it's struck up
Speaker 2: with Michael Aptid, who directed my favorite music biopic of
Speaker 2: all time, The Coal Miner's Daughter. Nice. I don't know
Speaker 2: if it's within arm reach. Oh it is to sound here.
Speaker 2: I just got in the coal Miners oughter four ko.
Speaker 2: It just came out. Who put that out? The studio did?
Speaker 2: All right, I'm gonna have to get that because Coal
Speaker 2: Miner's Daughter is a movie that I have a very
Speaker 2: interesting relationship with because I don't even know what appealed
Speaker 2: why it appealed to me so heavily when it did.
Speaker 2: I remember seeing it for the first time. I was
Speaker 2: going through like just going through the channels, and I
Speaker 2: think it was playing on like HBO or Showtime or
Speaker 2: something when I was a kid, and it was rated R.
Speaker 2: So I just assumed when I was a kid, I
Speaker 2: assumed any rated R movie was going to have nudity,
Speaker 2: and at a young age, that's all you're kind of
Speaker 2: looking for. I put the movie on, and I just
Speaker 2: got so wrapped up in the story. I remember it.
Speaker 2: Why am I struggling to think of his name? Tommy
Speaker 2: Lee Jones. Wow, Tommy Lee Jones like he like swears
Speaker 2: to Loretta Lynn's dad. It's like I will never lay
Speaker 2: my hands on her. And then literally the night of
Speaker 2: their wedding, he beats her. And I just remember, being
Speaker 2: like nine years old, being like that piece of shit?
Speaker 3: Can I blow your mind a little bit? Yeah, it's
Speaker 3: rated PG. What for some reason? I'm oh, wow, Well
Speaker 3: I thought it was rated R as a kid. That's
Speaker 3: the only reason I could have thought that.
Speaker 2: I put it on.
Speaker 3: Cole Miner's Utter is a masterpiece. The music in it
Speaker 3: is beyond nostalgic for me. It was something that I
Speaker 3: heard an infinite number of times growing up.
Speaker 2: Great performance is a great movie. Check out cole Miner's Center.
Speaker 2: And I also love that Loretta Lynn kind of strong
Speaker 2: armed Sissy Space and the bean in it. Yeah, I've
Speaker 2: heard that story, Jim. That's exactly why I got it.
Speaker 3: It was eleven dollars on sale at Amazon del Yeah,
Speaker 3: for a brand new.
Speaker 2: Four K hmm, good deal. Yeah. I don't remember the story,
Speaker 2: but I think I heard it. Is it charitable? Do
Speaker 2: you remember it?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 2: So essentially what had happened was the studio was helping
Speaker 2: develop the film and Loretta Lynn was involved with it.
Speaker 2: I believe she's got a producing credit of some sort
Speaker 2: on that film. I think so. And she had seen
Speaker 2: the Sissy SpaceX and I think carry that would make
Speaker 2: sense and just thought was like, well, this is the
Speaker 2: girl that's gonna play me, and reached out to Sissy
Speaker 2: SpaceX's like I want you to do this, and Sissy
Speaker 2: SpaceX said I can't sing and I don't want to sing.
Speaker 2: So Loretta Lynn went on like uh, Johnny Carson and
Speaker 2: was like, we are making a movie about my life
Speaker 2: and Cissy SpaceX is gonna play me. And Cissy SpaceX
Speaker 2: was watching live when it happened, and I was like
Speaker 2: and just kind of well, I guess I have to
Speaker 2: play or yep, that's pretty great that that that tookes
Speaker 2: some balls. Yeah, Lauren was that kind of person. She
Speaker 2: was cool, all right.
Speaker 3: So that is it for pickups and recent watches. After
Speaker 3: announcements tonight, like I said, we're gonna be talking about
Speaker 3: our own shameless five titles that we have not seen
Speaker 3: yet that we absolutely that we do not feel shameover
Speaker 3: and we're excited to see for the first time. It
Speaker 3: definitely need to get done. But first let's talk about
Speaker 3: some announcements. Criterion was the first announcements this week and
Speaker 3: first time guest Michael gets to talk about Criteria with me.
Speaker 2: That's great.
Speaker 3: April seventh, we got a four K coming of Gilda
Speaker 3: from nineteen forty six. This is going to have an
Speaker 3: audio commentary by Richard Schickel. Basically, it's all the stuff
Speaker 3: that's on the old disc. Not much to say here,
Speaker 3: it's just an upgrade to the four K. Any thought
Speaker 3: on Rita Hayworth or Gilda. I like Rita Hayworth.
Speaker 2: I've not seen a lot of her films. I have
Speaker 2: that old Milk it's kind of even that old but
Speaker 2: Milk Creek put out like a Rita Hayworth collection that
Speaker 2: I've been slowly working my way through. But yeah, no,
Speaker 2: this is one that I have not had the opportunity
Speaker 2: to see yet. Neither have I. In fact, I don't.
Speaker 2: I think I've only seen maybe one maybe to Rita Hayworth. Yeah,
Speaker 2: good stuff.
Speaker 3: Another one that I sadly have not seen, but now
Speaker 3: this will be the most absolutely perfect time to see this.
Speaker 3: We got a four K and blu ray upgrade of
Speaker 3: Trouble in Paradise from nineteen thirty two, the Ernst Lubich film.
Speaker 3: To make the jump to four K for a Lubich
Speaker 3: film is great. I can't remember, correct me if I'm
Speaker 3: wrong in the chat. If so, I think this is
Speaker 3: the first four K Lubich, which feels like a pretty
Speaker 3: big deal. On this one feels like a big deal. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: I love the cover of this one. One that I'm
Speaker 3: gonna have to check out. Have you seen any lubig films?
Speaker 3: Another one that I have not seen. However, I do
Speaker 3: have fond memories of listening to Mark Cousins say his
Speaker 3: name in the History of Film documentary good duck Yeah,
Speaker 3: and I just love the way that he says his name.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 3: Next up a film that no joke. So a little
Speaker 3: peak behind the curtains of how I do announcement sometimes
Speaker 3: Criterion they usually announced on the fifteenth of every month,
Speaker 3: and so I was ready on the fifteenth, which was
Speaker 3: Thursday of last week to post announcements, and I had
Speaker 3: something up on the on my screen ready to go.
Speaker 2: And what I normally do when I know.
Speaker 3: That a certain company's gonna announce, I fill in all
Speaker 3: of the information from what I can guess. I knew
Speaker 3: that they were doing April announcements, so I had the
Speaker 3: coming on April the first Tuesday, which was I think
Speaker 3: the seventh on four K from Criterion, and I always
Speaker 3: put in a fake movie, so I just have to
Speaker 3: double click at the highlight and put something else in there.
Speaker 3: The fake movie I chose last Thursday was Life of Brian.
Speaker 3: I was like, there's no way Criterion will ever release
Speaker 3: Life of Brian, and then they literally announced it the
Speaker 3: one time that I typed it in there is the
Speaker 3: fake movie, and I was like, I literally called that.
Speaker 3: That was incredible. So we are getting a four K
Speaker 3: and Blu ray release of Life of Brian. Never saw
Speaker 3: them getting the rights back to this. This had been
Speaker 3: a Criterion DVD ages ago nineteen seventy nine release from
Speaker 3: Monty Python, which is a remarkable movie. This is going
Speaker 3: to have two audio commentary. We've got a bunch of
Speaker 3: the Pythons. In there, we've got the story Brian from
Speaker 3: two thousand and seven, which is a making of doc.
Speaker 3: There is a bunch of extras from way back in
Speaker 3: the day, including some deleted scenes, original illustrated recording, all
Speaker 3: kinds of stuff, including a new essay by Bill Gabiri.
Speaker 2: Do you have a history with the life of Brian?
Speaker 2: I actually don't have much of a history with Monty
Speaker 2: Python in general. It was never any it was they
Speaker 2: were never anything my parents watched growing up, or anyone
Speaker 2: that I really knew. So like, even though I was
Speaker 2: familiar with them as I got older, I didn't really
Speaker 2: have anyone shepherding me towards their stuff. And they definitely
Speaker 2: are shameless material of something I need to see. Have
Speaker 2: you seen any of them? Holy grill? Nothing like. I've
Speaker 2: seen the Monty Python guys in things, and I've seen
Speaker 2: some of Terry Gilliam's films, but I've not seen a
Speaker 2: proper Monty Python movie.
Speaker 3: I think we should schedule a weekend, get us literally
Speaker 3: in person together and watch all of their films back
Speaker 3: to back.
Speaker 2: In not kidding, genuinely, I will refrain from watching any
Speaker 2: of them until we can plan this handshake same.
Speaker 3: I wanted to watch Holy Grail again soon. That stands amazing.
Speaker 3: We're doing this at some point and I cannot wait
Speaker 3: to talk about it. That sounds like a blast. Funny enough,
Speaker 3: I was raised a little bit on the Monty Python's
Speaker 3: Flying Circus, but in a weird way. It was because
Speaker 3: it was on PBS on Saturdays, and I don't know
Speaker 3: why it was on PPS as a child.
Speaker 2: But yeah, it's also interesting too because I don't know
Speaker 2: the age of your parents, but my parents were older
Speaker 2: than all of my friend's parents. Like. My dad was
Speaker 2: born in nineteen fifty four, so like I think by
Speaker 2: the time that Monty Python was doing their things, it
Speaker 2: just was something he was interested in.
Speaker 3: My my parents were always younger than all my friend's parents,
Speaker 3: but not super different in age from yours. My dad
Speaker 3: was born in sixty five, so around ish. But to
Speaker 3: be fair, he probably should have loved Bondie Python. He
Speaker 3: was kind of the perfect age for it. My dad
Speaker 3: was just an idiot, well still as an idiot. I
Speaker 3: think he's still alive. I haven't been notified of anything.
Speaker 2: My dad liked Western so that was just kind of
Speaker 2: his bread and bunner. My dad liked alcohol. Anyways, let's
Speaker 2: go to the next one. That was a dark joke.
Speaker 3: I hope my sister's watching because she's probably laughing like
Speaker 3: crazy right now. Next April twenty first, we are getting
Speaker 3: a Blu ray and DVD release from the Criterion Premier's
Speaker 3: collection of Resurrection from twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2: This is the Begone film or be Bye.
Speaker 3: I don't remember how you say his name. I think
Speaker 3: it's b Began something like that. This film is supposedly incredible.
Speaker 3: I've not had a chance to be able to see
Speaker 3: it yet.
Speaker 2: I love the Criterion is doing this.
Speaker 3: That being said, it always hurts when a film that
Speaker 3: I've heard is like ravishing beautifully when it's it's visual
Speaker 3: like splendor is displayed on screen, and I know that
Speaker 3: it's coming on Criterion premieeres because you know that that's
Speaker 3: not going to be a four K. They only do
Speaker 3: Blu ray on this line, Blu ray and DVD, So
Speaker 3: I hope somebody else gets this and really delivers the
Speaker 3: potential here. Supposedly the colors are amazing. Have you been
Speaker 3: able to see this one yet?
Speaker 2: No, but I actually just saw a trailer for it before.
Speaker 2: No other choice and I was instantly like, my wife
Speaker 2: and I both looked at each other. It's like, we
Speaker 2: got to go see this. Yeah. Plus, I just love that.
Speaker 2: I don't remember which film critic put it, but I
Speaker 2: just love that. The review they used in the trailer
Speaker 2: was it's cinema with capital C. That's that's pretty cool.
Speaker 3: That's that's a great, great review that I would be
Speaker 3: holding on to for a long time.
Speaker 2: It's a perfect type of trailer too, where it's just
Speaker 2: it's it's just a vibe trail. I don't know anything
Speaker 2: about this movie. I don't know what it's. It's like
Speaker 2: watching a Nicholas Winding Refin trailer. I don't know what
Speaker 2: the fuck this movie's about, but I need to see
Speaker 2: it because it looks visually sumptuous. There there.
Speaker 3: Oh gosh, which one, uh, I need to.
Speaker 2: Look up Refin.
Speaker 3: I always get the name of the title wrong, Nicholas
Speaker 3: Winding Refin. So somebody was describing Neon Demon to me
Speaker 3: and they said, it's the only movie that I love that.
Speaker 3: They have a talking speed of about thirteen words for
Speaker 3: every four minutes, and I'm somehow enthralled.
Speaker 2: Yes, honestly, I'm an I'm an easy Mark the more
Speaker 2: pretentious he gets, the better I just soak that shit up.
Speaker 2: I don't understand why understandable? Uh?
Speaker 3: Next up a big one this month. We are getting
Speaker 3: on April twenty first, a four K and Blu Ray
Speaker 3: release of point blank.
Speaker 2: Point Blank.
Speaker 3: Point Blank is the title from nineteen six sixty seven.
Speaker 3: This is the Lee Marvin joint from John Borman, a
Speaker 3: title that people adore, that has long needed a great release,
Speaker 3: And here we go, brand new four K digital restoration
Speaker 3: supervised and approved by John Borman. We've got a four
Speaker 3: K disk and a Blu Ray disc. We got an
Speaker 3: audio commentary with Borman and Steven Soderberg. Second Soderberg name
Speaker 3: dropped so far. We've got an interview with Borman conducted
Speaker 3: by the author Jeff Dyer, new interview with the critic
Speaker 3: Mark Harris, New reflections on the film by Jim Jarmusch.
Speaker 3: We've got a new program on the mid century LA
Speaker 3: architecture feature of the movie with historian's historicis and that's
Speaker 3: not a word either historian Alison Martino. And then the
Speaker 3: rock from nineteen sixty seventy short doc on Alcatraz and
Speaker 3: the making of the movie. Plus there's an interview with
Speaker 3: Martinvin from a nineteen seventy episode of The Dick Cabot
Speaker 3: Show and an essay by Dyer like this is a great,
Speaker 3: great looking.
Speaker 2: I'm I'm I have to buy this. I saw this
Speaker 2: years ago. So a lot of my stories about watching
Speaker 2: movies involve my mother because she I didn't have many
Speaker 2: movie friends growing up, but I knew if it came
Speaker 2: on Turner Classic Movies, my mother would watch it with me.
Speaker 2: I saw this movie and I was like fourteen, fifteen
Speaker 2: years old. Neither of us had seen it. It came
Speaker 2: on Turner Classic Movies. I just remember it finished, and
Speaker 2: my mom was like, what did you think? And I
Speaker 2: was like, I think I loved it, and she I
Speaker 2: think I hate it. And I've not seen it since.
Speaker 2: I've just been kind of riding that high ever since.
Speaker 2: So with you know all of that, plus you're gonna
Speaker 2: throw some Soderberg and jar motion in there. Hell, yeah,
Speaker 2: I gotta pick this up.
Speaker 3: That is a big deal. Yeah, glad it is out there.
Speaker 3: So that is point blank.
Speaker 2: Next.
Speaker 3: On April twenty eighth, we got a Blu Ray release
Speaker 3: of the Eclipse series. Next title and that is Caneo
Speaker 3: Tanaka directs a box set from nineteen fifty three to
Speaker 3: nineteen sixty two. This will include Love Letter, The Moon
Speaker 3: Has Forever a Woman, The Wandering Process, Girls of the Night,
Speaker 3: and Love under the Crucifix. The only special feature that
Speaker 3: they're listening for this is an essay by Imagen Sarah Smith,
Speaker 3: who is excellent, thankfully. But I do wish that we
Speaker 3: were getting more stuff in these box sets. But it'll
Speaker 3: be an HD release. It'll be nice to have these.
Speaker 3: I've not seen anything from coneyo Otaka. Have you seen
Speaker 3: anything from them?
Speaker 2: No? And actually I'm relatively new to the Eclipse series,
Speaker 2: but I bought the Robert Downey Senior one and loved that.
Speaker 2: So after that, I want to start kind of blindly
Speaker 2: jumping into some of these.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've got the first one that they just did
Speaker 3: on Blu Ray.
Speaker 2: Eager to see the rest that they do.
Speaker 3: I really hope they upgrade their Nakatsu Nakatu is a
Speaker 3: Crime or I think it's Nikatu Noir that they called
Speaker 3: their old Eclipse DVD set. We were talking about that
Speaker 3: in the discord this week. I definitely want that one
Speaker 3: upgraded for sure.
Speaker 2: Hmm. Yeah, And I just it's it's it's a I
Speaker 2: think it's I don't know what the mantra behind the
Speaker 2: Eclipse series is, but I can kind of put it
Speaker 2: together that you know, maybe it's films that they don't
Speaker 2: have enough stuff that they can necessarily do standalone versions
Speaker 2: with or you know, big box sets, but they're important
Speaker 2: films that they it's kind of they just I don't
Speaker 2: want to say lump together because that sounds bad, but
Speaker 2: there's you know, there's a thematic or reason for them
Speaker 2: to be together or more you know, some they are
Speaker 2: all the same director or something like that. I just
Speaker 2: I I think it's a. It's it's great because it's
Speaker 2: still getting the Criterion treatment in terms of restoration work,
Speaker 2: even if it doesn't have the special features. And I'm
Speaker 2: glad to see that these are This is a Blu
Speaker 2: ray because I know my Robert Donnie Senior one is
Speaker 2: a DVD. But that being said, as an a v
Speaker 2: NERD like we haven't even touched on my obsession with
Speaker 2: audio vision and stuff, Criterion DVDs still look really fucking good.
Speaker 3: For a DVD. They truly do. I'm still amazed, especially
Speaker 3: mostly boutiques that have been doing DVDs for a long
Speaker 3: Time released some really great DVDs like Modo Macabro DVD.
Speaker 3: Some of those still look remarkable. I always laughed though
Speaker 3: putting in a studio DVD, like we went to show
Speaker 3: the kids Honey Shrunk the Kids on DVD and literally
Speaker 3: had to stop because.
Speaker 2: It looked like absolute dog shit. Yes, but yet, like
Speaker 2: my I have my Darling Clementine on DVD from Criterion,
Speaker 2: and it's better than some of the Mill Creek Blu
Speaker 2: rays that I have. I mean, low bar but true. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: I just do want.
Speaker 3: To throw out a title understandable.
Speaker 2: Let's go to our next one.
Speaker 3: This is a big deal too, April twenty eighth getting
Speaker 3: a four K and Blu ray box set separated, not
Speaker 3: a dual format box set. They're doing a four K
Speaker 3: box and a Blu ray box of John Singleton's Hood trilogy.
Speaker 3: This is going to include Boys in the Hood, Poetic Justice,
Speaker 3: and Baby Boy from ninety one, ninety three and two
Speaker 3: thousand and one.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: This is a must buy for me, just plain and
Speaker 3: simple as somebody that grew up in southern California was
Speaker 3: raised on a couple of these movies.
Speaker 2: Absolutely love it.
Speaker 3: We are going to get audio commentaries and all three
Speaker 3: films with Singleton. New conversation between Ryan Kogler and Regina King.
Speaker 3: That's another thing I want to see immediately. You documentary
Speaker 3: on Singleton, Singleton's filmmaking process with some other people that
Speaker 3: were involved in his films. New audio interviews with Trogi
Speaker 3: p Henson and Tyreese Gibson, Great some deleted scenes, archival extras,
Speaker 3: and then an essay by Julian Kimball.
Speaker 2: Any thoughts on John Singleton. I've only seen Boys in
Speaker 2: the Hood, but it's a movie that really stuck with me.
Speaker 2: Another movie that my mother showed made a very young age,
Speaker 2: and I feel like I am the person I am
Speaker 2: because I saw something like that at a young age
Speaker 2: and it really stuck with me. Definitely need to pick
Speaker 2: this up.
Speaker 3: Yep, this is this is the first sale. After this
Speaker 3: goes on sale, it will be in my hands. More
Speaker 3: breaking Criterion news from last week is that Variety share
Speaker 3: that they're gonna be releasing three Neon films from this
Speaker 3: year on disc from Criterion over this next year. We
Speaker 3: are getting Jeffarpinahi's It Was Just an Accident, Jokim Treer's
Speaker 3: Sentimental Value, and then Kleiber Mondoka Philho's The Secret Agents.
Speaker 2: No news on.
Speaker 3: Four K slash Blu Ray whatever is coming on those
Speaker 3: or exact release dates. But how many of those three
Speaker 3: films have you seen? What do you think of them?
Speaker 2: I haven't seen any of them, but I really wanted
Speaker 2: to see The Secret Agent and Sentimental Value, the first
Speaker 2: one I have not heard of, but I've heard of
Speaker 2: the filmmaker, so I definitely want to check out all these.
Speaker 2: I will be getting all three of these. I have
Speaker 2: not seen.
Speaker 3: It was just an accident yet, but everybody I trust
Speaker 3: loves that movie. I love Sentimental Value, and I really
Speaker 3: have liked Secret Agent. I like how it was made
Speaker 3: more than the actual film itself, and there's some things
Speaker 3: that are breathtaking and Secret Agent. I think the opening
Speaker 3: for Secret Agent alone is going to stick with me
Speaker 3: for a long time. Just a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful scene.
Speaker 3: The way they crafted it so good. And he's an
Speaker 3: incredible actor, so glad he was nominated today.
Speaker 2: All right. Other than that, let's talk about third party
Speaker 2: retailers because I clicked twice. Let's go back to this.
Speaker 3: Diabolic DVD has announced that they've updated a couple things.
Speaker 3: One Finally, for the love of God, they are offering
Speaker 3: a version of free shipping, and all you have to
Speaker 3: do is order three things on Diabolic DVD and they
Speaker 3: are going to give you a six dollars credit when.
Speaker 2: You're checking out.
Speaker 3: Now, this is interesting because it's not it is free shipping,
Speaker 3: but it's not free shipping because it's not going to
Speaker 3: be listed as free shipping, but it will cover your
Speaker 3: price of shipping. But they also want it to work
Speaker 3: for international buyers, so if you buy at least three
Speaker 3: things internationally, you will get a six dollars credit off
Speaker 3: of the total cost of your order. And obviously they
Speaker 3: can give you free shipping if you were going internationally,
Speaker 3: because it's gonna be like thirty bucks. But now you'll
Speaker 3: save six dollars, which is pretty cool. And then they're
Speaker 3: also doing a loyalty program. This is all live now,
Speaker 3: so on top of that, you will be able to
Speaker 3: get a point earned for every dollar that you spend,
Speaker 3: and once you've accumulated three hundred dollars of purchasing, you
Speaker 3: will receive a twenty dollars coupon good towards anything on
Speaker 3: the site. They're working on some other perks with this
Speaker 3: software that they hope to roll out in the coming weeks.
Speaker 2: But that is pretty damn cool. Do you shot from Diabolic?
Speaker 2: I do? I do. They're usually one of the first
Speaker 2: places I look for, especially if something is slowly dwindling
Speaker 2: in numbers, I will check them. I usually like their
Speaker 2: prices quite a bit. I question though, if this salt
Speaker 2: quote unquote free but not really free shipping. So you
Speaker 2: said that you buy three things. I assume it's like
Speaker 2: a bundle, like you buy three titles or three things
Speaker 2: from their website. And then you said they give you
Speaker 2: a coupon. Yes, can you bank those coupons? Can I
Speaker 2: just say, choose to pay for my shipping? No, arn,
Speaker 2: because that'd be fun.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they will just give you six dollars off of
Speaker 3: that purchase. Specifically, it will be listed at checkout and
Speaker 3: then I guess the other thing to point out here
Speaker 3: is specifically it is three regularly priced items. So if
Speaker 3: they're having a sale and you get three items in
Speaker 3: a sale, you will not get free shipping, which is rough.
Speaker 2: I guess I get it all right. Let's head to
Speaker 2: Australia with Imprint.
Speaker 3: We talked about this film a few months ago March
Speaker 3: twenty fifth, We're getting a Blu ray release from Imprint
Speaker 3: of Up the Junction from nineteen sixty eight. This is
Speaker 3: the Susie Kendall film. This is gonna have a brand
Speaker 3: new audio commentary by Justphine Botting and Melanie Williams, new
Speaker 3: interview with the assistant director Michael Dryhurst.
Speaker 2: Have you seen this movie? No, I've never even heard
Speaker 2: of this movie.
Speaker 3: I had not the first time that we announced this
Speaker 3: a few months ago from screen Bound, But I'm dying
Speaker 3: to hear this. Everybody that was from the UK, so
Speaker 3: this was a big one for them. I'm very curious
Speaker 3: to check this one out. Looks pretty fun.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm a so you remember when we're kids and
Speaker 2: we're always told don't judge a book by its cover type.
Speaker 2: I am. I need something to go off of, and
Speaker 2: a compelling or interesting poster goes a long way for me.
Speaker 2: I don't know anything about these movies I would buy.
Speaker 2: I would pick up these movies blindly just because I
Speaker 2: like the way it's being sold to me. I like
Speaker 2: looking at it right, understandable, completely understandable. Uh, let's raw
Speaker 2: and Randy, it's a great tagle and let's be honest
Speaker 2: it really is. It's no, it's not as good as
Speaker 2: it's the rock It's the Rocky of Hockey, but it's
Speaker 2: pretty good. I would love to see It's the Rocky
Speaker 2: of Hockey on the cover. Up the Junction. Yeah, next up, same.
Speaker 3: Date, March twenty fifth, a Blu ray of Another Time,
Speaker 3: Another Place from nineteen fifty eight. I just want to
Speaker 3: point out that on Facebook I posted this announcement. Somebody
Speaker 3: saw this cover and said in the comments, why does
Speaker 3: that look like Sean Connery?
Speaker 2: I wonder why.
Speaker 3: I really wanted to say, do you know how to read?
Speaker 3: Because it literally points out that it is Sean Connery.
Speaker 3: This has a new audio commentary by Leef Pfiffer, Tony
Speaker 3: Latino and Paul Scrabo. Imprint putting out a Sean Connery film,
Speaker 3: Early Sean Connery.
Speaker 2: This looks like a fun release. It's the first time
Speaker 2: ever on Blu Ray, which is exactly what I love
Speaker 2: to see coming. M hm, Yeah, this one I'm not
Speaker 2: familiar with, but I do really like young Sean Connery.
Speaker 3: Up the Junction, according to Vinnie, has a great soundtrack
Speaker 3: late sixties mod music, which, yeah, that's exactly one of
Speaker 3: the reasons I need to see it.
Speaker 2: Next up another one that I've been meaning to check.
Speaker 3: This had another Blu Ray release here in the US
Speaker 3: a while ago, March twenty fifth, a Blu ray of
Speaker 3: three into two Won't Go From nineteen sixty nine. This
Speaker 3: is Steve Howard, a middle aged British sales executive trapped
Speaker 3: in an unhappy marriage, has an impulsive affair with the
Speaker 3: young hitchhiker named Ella, But when Steve arrives home, he
Speaker 3: discovers Ella has introduced herself to Steve's wife, Francis, and
Speaker 3: moved in with all his secrets under one roof. Steve
Speaker 3: must keep his relationship with Ella hidden at all costs.
Speaker 2: This has Rod Steiger in it.
Speaker 3: We got Claire Bloom and then Judy Geeson also in this.
Speaker 3: This is gonna have an audio commentary that's brand new
Speaker 3: from Matthew Matthew Aspery Gear and then a new interview
Speaker 3: with the actress Lynn Farley, and then the trailers from
Speaker 3: Hell portion will be on here as well.
Speaker 2: No idea about this movie. Never seen it. I definitely
Speaker 2: need to. No. I'm familiar with the cast, but that's it.
Speaker 2: And I have to say I like that some of
Speaker 2: the I like when releases put those trailers from Hell
Speaker 2: like trailer commentaries on their stuff. Agreed, Agreed, Steiger and
Speaker 2: Bloom were married at that time. Since Terry in the chat,
Speaker 2: Thanks Terry, I guess the chemistry must be pretty decent
Speaker 2: in this movie. Then wouldn't be funny if it was
Speaker 2: terrible like they think whatsoever? Like the plot of the movie,
Speaker 2: it's actually the chemistry between him and the other woman.
Speaker 3: Yes, it's all steamy. So same day from Imprint again,
Speaker 3: Hot Enough for June from nineteen sixty four, this one
Speaker 3: with Dirk Boguard. This will have a new audio commentary
Speaker 3: by Matthew Asprey Gear as well. They're working on some
Speaker 3: more new special features, but they have not.
Speaker 2: Been announced yet. Once again, not my era of film,
Speaker 2: so I don't know much of it about. This is sort
Speaker 2: of a blind spot. I like a lot of the
Speaker 2: sixties comedies I've I've seen a movie called Cactus Flower
Speaker 2: is one of my is one of my favorites. But yeah,
Speaker 2: this is not an era that I know super I
Speaker 2: know a lot about, but I enjoy it. I enjoyed
Speaker 2: everything I've seen from it, so I'm usually good to
Speaker 2: blind buy stuff from this time period. Nice.
Speaker 3: Next up is Some Girls Do from nineteen sixty nine.
Speaker 3: This is from Ralph Thomas, the director. This is a
Speaker 3: cult comedy spy film. You get a new audio commentary
Speaker 3: with Kim Newman and Barry Forshaw. New Leafi for speaking
Speaker 3: on Richard Johnson, the Man who Is Almost Bond. There
Speaker 3: is a new segment with Tony Latino, the film historian
Speaker 3: on the spy craze of the sixties. We've got a
Speaker 3: new interview with Paul Scrabo, and then even more new
Speaker 3: special features that they're working on right now. This is
Speaker 3: a sequel to Deadlier than the Male. This is supposed
Speaker 3: to be really great. I need to see this. Love
Speaker 3: that they're putting this out. Yeah, pretty good slate from Imprint.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I love spy films and I love spy spoofs. Agreed.
Speaker 2: There last one from Imprint in this batch is Morock seven,
Speaker 2: coming on the same day.
Speaker 3: This is from nineteen sixty seven. This is is going
Speaker 3: to be with Geene Barry, Elizabeth Martinelli, Leslie Phillips, and
Speaker 3: Alexander Stewart. This will have a new audio commentary by
Speaker 3: Kim Newman and Barry Forshaw. Again, a new interview with
Speaker 3: the producer John Gail, and even more new special features.
Speaker 3: It is wild that they're putting so much on these small,
Speaker 3: sort of like underseen films that normally they would just
Speaker 3: put out maybe a commentary and that's it. But yeah,
Speaker 3: they're they're actually putting some money into these, which I
Speaker 3: love to see, and I appreciate it because, honestly, like
Speaker 3: for some of these films, I would be fine just
Speaker 3: getting the film.
Speaker 2: I I I love getting supplemental materials, but for some
Speaker 2: of these movies, just being able to see them is enough. Yeah,
Speaker 2: but I do appreciate when they can put something together,
Speaker 2: even if it's even if it's something small just for
Speaker 2: some contextual information. Agreed, Absolutely agreed.
Speaker 3: Some of my favorite things about these Let to go
Speaker 3: to a movie that came out last year that I
Speaker 3: did not get a chance to see that I'm dying
Speaker 3: to see. That is coming from Magnolia of the film
Speaker 3: Man Finds Tape. This is coming on February twenty fourth
Speaker 3: on Blu Ray. This is a found footage movie that's
Speaker 3: supposed to be genuinely creepy, and I love found footage.
Speaker 2: How do you feel about found footage? I ultimately like it.
Speaker 2: I wouldn't say, I like, I haven't liked every found
Speaker 2: footage movie, but no one has. It's a genre that
Speaker 2: I find endlessly fascinating, and especially if they can find
Speaker 2: a conceit in which I'm not questioning why they're continuing
Speaker 2: the film. Yeah. Also one thing that I also love
Speaker 2: when they lean into the fact that it is a movie.
Speaker 2: I will never forget that. In George ra Merrill's Diary
Speaker 2: of the Dead, there's actually a scene of them editing
Speaker 2: the footage together and I was like, I don't, I
Speaker 2: don't know why would have a weird we appreciate seeing this.
Speaker 3: I will say found footage is probably the genre with
Speaker 3: some of for me, some of the highest highs, but
Speaker 3: also some of the lowest lows possible. Favorite found footage
Speaker 3: my God, or just a strong.
Speaker 2: One that comes off the top of your head Cloverfield,
Speaker 2: That is a great that one. I when that. I
Speaker 2: think I got like a paramount steel book for that
Speaker 2: a couple of years ago, and I had rediscovered that
Speaker 2: film and it's it just holds up so well as
Speaker 2: above so below legitimately scared this ship out do it? Yes,
Speaker 2: so much like and to the point that like I
Speaker 2: almost I haven't wanted to rewatch it because I want
Speaker 2: to live in the memories that I have of how
Speaker 2: good that film was.
Speaker 3: Right one with the similar sort of vibe because it's
Speaker 3: more focused on horror than creature feature aspect of Cloverfield
Speaker 3: The Last Exorcism. I love that movie, and then the
Speaker 3: last ninety seconds happened, and that ruins so much of
Speaker 3: that movie, but the rest of it is.
Speaker 2: Very, very good, Brad.
Speaker 3: Next up is from Well Go USA from March thirty. First,
Speaker 3: you can be able to get a blu ray of
Speaker 3: the Takashi Mike film Blazing Fists. This say is from
Speaker 3: Takashi miik comes, the story of Ikuto and Riyoma, troubled
Speaker 3: teens who meet in juvenile detention and plan to fight
Speaker 3: their way to freedom. Inspired by mm MMA fighter and
Speaker 3: Breaking Down founder Mikuro Asakura, the two boys set their
Speaker 3: sights on competing in Asaku's popular tournament. After the release,
Speaker 3: they discovered they must defeat their past, yeah, their pasts
Speaker 3: outside the ring before they can become champions inside it.
Speaker 2: How do you feel about Takashi Mike. I like Takashi
Speaker 2: mi k quite a bit, and I just I'm always
Speaker 2: impressed by how many films he makes. Earlier in this broadcast,
Speaker 2: I talked about going to the can Film Festival. Yeah,
Speaker 2: rented a tuxedo because I had a connection that got
Speaker 2: me into a red carpet screening, so I had to
Speaker 2: have a tuxedo for that. The red carpet screen I
Speaker 2: got to go to was a Takeisha Mek film that
Speaker 2: I don't know if it ever got a physical media
Speaker 2: release here in the United States. It's called Shields of Straw.
Speaker 2: I don't think so. It was Mikay kind of doing
Speaker 2: It was Mikay doing a Japanese cop film, but it
Speaker 2: was using American cop film tropes. It was really a
Speaker 2: wild movie. But I got to watch that movie with
Speaker 2: me Kay in the audience. No no disc release in
Speaker 2: the US.
Speaker 3: Interesting, I feel like I need to see that pretty gay.
Speaker 2: And so that's that's always a little laurel that I
Speaker 2: can put in my cap that I got to see
Speaker 2: a Meek film that you can't really find that nobody
Speaker 2: has seen. Wanted to shout out.
Speaker 3: We got some other fan footage recommendations in the chat
Speaker 3: rec phenomenal pick love that movie.
Speaker 2: Man Bites Dog. Have you seen Man Bytes Dog? Yes?
Speaker 2: I saw that back when, back when I f C
Speaker 2: was cool. Uh, they used to show things like Man
Speaker 2: Bites Dog Unedited on cable and that's when I first
Speaker 2: saw it interesting. Man Bites on cable is Yeah, now
Speaker 2: they just show reruns. If it's always sunny in the
Speaker 2: Philadelphia all day, I.
Speaker 3: Mean also wild and also very fun. Yeah. I need
Speaker 3: to see this, I I I love me kay. Uh,
Speaker 3: definitely want to check this one out.
Speaker 2: I'm a sucker for movies that involve tournaments. Okay, have
Speaker 2: you have you seen stiff competition? No? But should I
Speaker 2: let me? Let me go? You have to go this.
Speaker 2: You have to go to the mill you scene site.
Speaker 3: It's a vinegar syndrome at about blow jobs stiff competition? Uh,
Speaker 3: but such a random Anyways, we probably don't need to
Speaker 3: discuss stiff competition.
Speaker 2: What's let's talk about more stiff competition. I can bring
Speaker 2: that up.
Speaker 3: Uh, we'll bring it up in anab Hey, Dracula, I'd
Speaker 3: love to hear your thoughts on Dracula. March thirtieth, Universal
Speaker 3: is putting out this beautiful Dracula Legacy Collector's Edition over
Speaker 3: in the UK. This is going to cover all of
Speaker 3: the Dracula films on four K from nineteen thirty one
Speaker 3: to nineteen forty eight. They had done all of these
Speaker 3: in the US last Fall, but now you can get
Speaker 3: this in the UK in an even fancier set if
Speaker 3: you're into it.
Speaker 2: How do you feel about Dracula. I love Gothic horror.
Speaker 2: I love Universal Monsters. That's not my favorite Dracula film,
Speaker 2: but I still love watching these. They are perennials for
Speaker 2: the Fall. Always been a big Frankenstein guy, but I'm
Speaker 2: never going to say no to watching Bella Lagozi.
Speaker 3: Is your favorite Dracula film from the nineties, probably Bram Stokers. Yes,
Speaker 3: I'm glad that we are on the same page there.
Speaker 2: Copple is my guy, even when he fails. I just
Speaker 2: I I just find that man endlessly fascinating. It's a
Speaker 2: great movie.
Speaker 3: Stylish as hell, Chris says always Suddeny has no complete
Speaker 3: series released on physical media, which sucks. It's not done yet.
Speaker 3: How could there be a complete series on physical media?
Speaker 3: They're still like setting the record every year for longest
Speaker 3: running narrative television show. I think is the current record?
Speaker 3: I think so it's.
Speaker 2: How many seasons. I feel like I watched the first
Speaker 2: like four and then I think we're up to like
Speaker 2: seventeen seventeen or eighteen insane and that's coming. Well, I
Speaker 2: can't say anything. I'm a Simpsons fan. I can't say
Speaker 2: anything that's true.
Speaker 3: Simpsons is about to hit thirty right or already hit three.
Speaker 2: I think they're on thirty two. Jesus, I lost count.
Speaker 2: I guess I watch it every Sunday. I don't pay
Speaker 2: attention to what season we're on. I just know it's on.
Speaker 2: It's almost like a warm blank. It's true.
Speaker 3: It is next up coming soon on four k We
Speaker 3: don't have released it yet, but Keeno label Keino Laber
Speaker 3: will be putting out Bulletproof from nineteen ninety six, the
Speaker 3: Adam Sandler and Damon Waym's film Bulletproof. Any thoughts on Bulletproof.
Speaker 2: I've actually never seen this, but I feel like I
Speaker 2: distinctly remember this poster in every video store I ever
Speaker 2: went to. That's because it was in every single video store.
Speaker 2: So yeah, that's accurate. Yeah. So is this a comedy?
Speaker 2: Is an action film? Is it both? Yes?
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's a pretty interesting mix of both. Kira
Speaker 3: is saying that Simpson's is on season thirty seven. Is
Speaker 3: that accurate. That is insanity. So they're about to be
Speaker 3: on forty in a couple of years.
Speaker 2: Jesus, I'm googling it. I'm sure. I'm sure whoever that
Speaker 2: person was is Oh yeah, they are absolutely correct.
Speaker 3: South Park is on his twenty eighth season. Geez, who man,
Speaker 3: I met a loss for words? Yeah, same on all
Speaker 3: of those things. Stan says, happy to report I've never
Speaker 3: seen an episode of Always Sunny. Why are you happy?
Speaker 3: The show is literally brilliant. It is amazing. Anyways, I
Speaker 3: won't belabor that point. Let's keep going. Coming soon on
Speaker 3: Blu Ray from Keno is manon seventy aka French Mistress
Speaker 3: from nineteen sixty eight, starring Catherine Daneuve. Not a movie
Speaker 3: I'm familiar with anything on this one.
Speaker 2: No.
Speaker 3: I like Canton, I like Kathin Daneuve. Yeah, I think
Speaker 3: I've only seen her in a couple of things.
Speaker 2: But yeah, yeah, hey, and I love that Keino is
Speaker 2: fined and shit to put out. That's true, that's true.
Speaker 2: Coming soon.
Speaker 3: That's the wrong word, because it's coming on March thirty first,
Speaker 3: even though that is soon. Blu Ray set of Malfeasance
Speaker 3: four films by Ives Bosset from nineteen seven. Excuse me,

Speaker 2: and The Woman Cop and the last one is Rise
Speaker 2: Up Spy.
Speaker 3: The first three films all newly restored in four K.
Speaker 3: Rise Up Spy is a two K restoration. We've got
Speaker 3: new commentaries on this one, including Max Allan Collins, Heath Holland.
Speaker 3: We've got Alexander Heller, Nicholas and Howardsberger, Nathaniel Thompson. Supposedly
Speaker 3: these are incredible. Anybody in the chat seeing these? I'd
Speaker 3: love to hear some more about these.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they look interesting.
Speaker 3: Somebody was calling this one of their most anticipated releases,
Speaker 3: which is always exciting. Next up, we are getting a
Speaker 3: four K steel book of nineteen ninety six's Sleepers, a
Speaker 3: film that I have seen advertised many many times. I've
Speaker 3: still never been able to see. This is supposed to
Speaker 3: be pretty great. We've got some big, big names in
Speaker 3: this one. Have you seen Sleepers? I could lie, but
Speaker 3: now I have not seen it.
Speaker 2: So big names.
Speaker 3: Robert de Niro, Dustin Hoffman, Kevin Bacon, Brad Pitt, Jason Patrick,
Speaker 3: all directed by Barry Levinson. This is supposed to be incredible.
Speaker 3: Definitely need to see Sleepers, And don't worry, this four
Speaker 3: K steel book is not a final piece of art.
Speaker 3: They are obviously going to put art there entirely. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I've heard this is good. Colton says, it's a time capsule.
Speaker 3: Aaron says, pretty good, not great.
Speaker 2: Well, no, no, no, Colton says it is dot dot
Speaker 2: dot a time capsule, which changes the I feel.
Speaker 3: Like the connotation for sure. Yeah, yes, I did bury
Speaker 3: the lead there a little bit.
Speaker 2: You're right.
Speaker 3: Sorry to all the podcast listeners. Hey, let's talk about
Speaker 3: two films that I've seen recently and loved. In late
Speaker 3: February or early March, we are getting two titles from
Speaker 3: Deaf Crocodile that I am stoked to be able to
Speaker 3: see finally coming out. We are getting a four K
Speaker 3: Blu Ray dual format release of Song of the Miranculous
Speaker 3: Hind from two thousand and two. This is a wild film.
Speaker 3: I don't even know how to begin to explain this.
Speaker 3: So let's see what Dennis has listed here. He says
Speaker 3: This is from from Marcel Yankovic and this is or
Speaker 3: Marcel Jenkovic. I don't remember how you say it. I'm sorry,
Speaker 3: Dennis and Craig. Craig, who's in the chat?
Speaker 2: I love you.
Speaker 3: This is the follow up to Son of the White Mayor,
Speaker 3: which you all may have seen if you got that
Speaker 3: from the previous release of that from Arblos or from Eureka.
Speaker 3: This was made during the production on the Tragedy of Man.
Speaker 3: This is the ambitious attempt to depict thousands of years
Speaker 3: of Hungarian culture in myth in one film, based in
Speaker 3: part on early Siberian and Finno Ugric legends and incorporating
Speaker 3: sit the Iranian, Turkic and our artistic influence is all
Speaker 3: mixed up into one. It's divided into four sections. The
Speaker 3: animation in this is absolutely beautiful. Cannot wait for people
Speaker 3: to be able to see this. This is the first
Speaker 3: ever four K release of this. There is gonna be
Speaker 3: a new interview with the composer Levente Sierenev. There is
Speaker 3: going to be the animator as part of that interview
Speaker 3: as well. The interview is incredible. I think that people
Speaker 3: are gonna love that, especially because the composer was in
Speaker 3: a pretty big band at the time, and of course
Speaker 3: Dennis Bartak had a record on hand from him loving
Speaker 3: the band Illish from the sixties. And the fact that
Speaker 3: you can hold that up and see the guy's face
Speaker 3: light up.
Speaker 2: It's a good interview. Check it out.
Speaker 3: New commentary on this by Adam Ratkoff, James Hancock, and
Speaker 3: Martin Kessler. Of course, the deluxe edition has a booklet
Speaker 3: with Jenny Barker and Walt Chaw riding in it.
Speaker 2: This movie is legendary. You need to see this.
Speaker 3: There was a clip that was posted recently on the
Speaker 3: Deaf Crocodile social media. If you are into animation at all,
Speaker 3: you will fully love this movie.
Speaker 2: Please check it out. Well, I think, I mean you
Speaker 2: had a conversation recently and how I admitted that I
Speaker 2: have not seen any Death Crocodile releases. I'm gonna have
Speaker 2: to pick this up. This looks fascinating. It is amazing.
Speaker 3: I love that this director went from making his film
Speaker 3: The Tragedy Man, that was going to cover all of
Speaker 3: humanity and everything outside of humanity in one film, to
Speaker 3: take a small break to make this movie that is
Speaker 3: only covering fifty thousand years of civilization.
Speaker 2: Man, he's how lazy only fifty thousand years. It is
Speaker 2: hilarious and yeah, it's just a wild setup.
Speaker 3: I think people need to see this. It's incredible. And
Speaker 3: I will give the full list of recommendations for stuff
Speaker 3: that I think you would love soon.
Speaker 2: Yes, oh, you gave me a a partial list, right,
Speaker 2: that was like the intro pack, Yes, like well, the
Speaker 2: intro pack was still like eleven log or something. It was,
Speaker 2: it was, and I am excited to once I have
Speaker 2: a little extra cash to be able to get my
Speaker 2: first Death Crocodile release.
Speaker 3: Well, if you're up for another one and love Bill Plimpton.
Speaker 3: We are also getting a Blu ray release of Hair
Speaker 3: High from two thousand and four. This is one of
Speaker 3: Bill Plimpton's greats in my opinion, So glad that Deaf
Speaker 3: Crocodile got a chance at this one. This is essentially
Speaker 3: a horny high school movie with one of the biggest
Speaker 3: casts in anything that Bill Plimpton has ever done. In
Speaker 3: this movie, we've got Sarah Silverman, Dermott mulroney, Beverily DiAngelo,
Speaker 3: David and Keith Carradine, Ed Begley, Junior, Martha Plimpton, We've
Speaker 3: got Justin Long. There's major, major names in this movie.
Speaker 3: It is hilarious. We've got multiple short films on this,
Speaker 3: including horn Dog, which is great. There's a new interview
Speaker 3: with mister Bill Plimpton himself. Of course, Marine Mechelron is
Speaker 3: in that interview as well. New visual essay by the
Speaker 3: one and only Celeste Lecabra, friend of the show. She
Speaker 3: did an essay called Horny High, sex Identity and animated
Speaker 3: anarchy and hair High and you will love it. It
Speaker 3: is a great one. Thanks for that, Cubrick, appreciate you.
Speaker 3: This also is going to come with the new commentary
Speaker 3: by the same people we just mentioned on that last release.
Speaker 3: We've got James Hancock, Martin Kessler, and Adam Ratcoff on
Speaker 3: that one. One thing that's cool about this the deaf
Speaker 3: crocodile guys aren't always able to get this, but they
Speaker 3: were able to get everything from the DVD release are
Speaker 3: mostly everything at least that's also gonna be on the
Speaker 3: Blu ray. So lots of archival extras, slipcase with new
Speaker 3: riding by Walt Shaw. And there's another wow. I just
Speaker 3: saw that this completely cut off my announcement. That's good
Speaker 3: to know there was other stuff here. Walt chaw On
Speaker 3: another essays in this sorry Craig. Yeah, Bill Plimpton, have
Speaker 3: you checked out anything from Bill Plimpton?
Speaker 2: Ever? Surprisingly no, except for Bill Plimpton going back to
Speaker 2: The Simpsons did some of the most interesting couch day eggs.
Speaker 2: There is one that I will always remember and I
Speaker 2: send it to everyone where it is a love story
Speaker 2: of Homer and the couch and he impregnates the couch.
Speaker 2: I don't know if I've seen that one. I will
Speaker 2: send it to you. Ever since then, I've been kind
Speaker 2: of obsessed with his work. I have not been able
Speaker 2: to find any of his stuff. So I while we've
Speaker 2: been sitting here talking, just added this to my car. Amazing, amazing, amazing.
Speaker 2: It's it's a good movie. Everybody needs to see it.
Speaker 2: It is. It's so great. Not much else to say.
Speaker 3: I love Bill Plumpton, and I'd honored that I've been
Speaker 3: able to have him on the show.
Speaker 2: He's just incredible.
Speaker 3: Next up, February twenty fourth, Well go USA putting out
Speaker 3: rescue at dong Gy from twenty twenty five, and it
Speaker 3: says when the Japanese troop ship Lisbon Maru is torpedoed
Speaker 3: off the coast of dong Gy Island.
Speaker 2: The lives of over three hundred British soldiers on board
Speaker 2: are threatened. Their only hope is a small group of
Speaker 2: defiant fishermen who will do anything to save them. The
Speaker 2: trailer for this actually looks pretty pretty good. I'm curious
Speaker 2: to check this one out. I have not even heard
Speaker 2: of this one.
Speaker 3: Well, go USA does that a lot. They seem to
Speaker 3: grab some films that not many people have heard of.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this looks good. I'm very, very curious about this.
Speaker 2: I believe this is a mainland Chida film, which we
Speaker 2: don't get a lot of those on physical release here
Speaker 2: in the US. Yeah, I'm I'm intrigued by it. I
Speaker 2: may be wrong on the main mainland China thing, but
Speaker 2: I believe I've read that about that. If I'm wrong,
Speaker 2: I apologize. In advance.
Speaker 3: Little known indie filmmaker named Christopher Nolan is putting out
Speaker 3: a couple of his films on disc again. March twenty third,
Speaker 3: We're getting a four K steal Book only over in
Speaker 3: the UK of the Prestige. We are also getting on
Speaker 3: that exact same day a four K Steel book of Dunkirk,
Speaker 3: good looking steals on one of these two is my
Speaker 3: favorite Christopher Nolan movie.
Speaker 2: Ever, how do you feel about Nolan? Mixed? I he's
Speaker 2: a filmmaker. I enjoy watching I but his films, don't know,
Speaker 2: I feel like the more more recently his films aren't
Speaker 2: really sticking with me the same way. Yeah, I love
Speaker 2: the Prestige. That is one that my wife actually showed me.
Speaker 2: But you know, we just recently watched Oppenheimer and I
Speaker 2: hate it, so, you know, mixed bag yep.
Speaker 3: I would understand that Terry says he hated the sound
Speaker 3: design and Dunkirk pissed me off.
Speaker 2: I feel like there were a couple.
Speaker 3: Scenes that were really great for the sound in Dunkirk,
Speaker 3: But I agree Christopher nol And has never been great
Speaker 3: with sound.
Speaker 2: No, and he's he kind of digs his heels in
Speaker 2: a in a very weird way where weird in I
Speaker 2: still remember when he was making his third Batman film,
Speaker 2: studio executives complained that Bain was unintelligible, so he went
Speaker 2: the complete opposite direction and turned up his vocals so
Speaker 2: high that it felt like it was peeking through the
Speaker 2: entire film. Yeah. Uh, but he's always had a problem.
Speaker 2: I've always had a problem with his mixes when it
Speaker 2: comes to dialogue, and I've got a pretty decent home
Speaker 2: theater setup that I've put a lot of time and
Speaker 2: effort into manually calibrating, and it's still tough.
Speaker 3: That's that's rough. I Yeah, I understand completely. Like obviously,
Speaker 3: Tenet has been complained about endlessly, so I won't say much,
Speaker 3: but it's wild.
Speaker 2: The mixing on some of these films come on like,
Speaker 2: we can do better than that. Ridiculous. Yeah, And he's
Speaker 2: also really has dug his heels into where he will.
Speaker 2: He's pretty much sticking with five point one.
Speaker 3: Yeah, which sucks because he seems to be wanting to
Speaker 3: push the envelope on some technological things. But we can
Speaker 3: do way better with audio, so let us I don't know.
Speaker 3: March tenth, we are getting from Universal a Blu Ray
Speaker 3: release of Resident Alien the Complete series and also Resident
Speaker 3: Alien Season four. That way, if you've got the first three,
Speaker 3: you can just pick up the fourth one. I have
Speaker 3: not seen even a single moment of the show, but
Speaker 3: I've heard that it's incredible. I love allent two Dick,
Speaker 3: and the story here sounds very fun.
Speaker 2: Have you seen this? No, I've I feel like I've
Speaker 2: seen some clips. I didn't realize they had four seasons.
Speaker 2: Four seasons and a good, strong ending. Supposedly.
Speaker 3: It supposedly does not end on a cliffhanger because they
Speaker 3: planned on being done all right. Next up, Imprint another
Speaker 3: TV venture. March twenty fifth, they're putting out a TV
Speaker 3: Movie of the Week collection number four. This is going
Speaker 3: to have to Kill a Cop from nineteen seventy eight,
Speaker 3: Cocaine and Blue Eyes from nineteen eighty three, a Killing
Speaker 3: Affair from nineteen seventy seven, which is only an SD
Speaker 3: and either way, oh, I totally forgot gloss over the
Speaker 3: first one. Contract on Cherry Street is the third one there.
Speaker 3: A couple of these are first time on Blu Ray.
Speaker 3: Contract on Cherry Street is to Kill a Cop is
Speaker 3: the first time on Blu Ray, and actually Cocaine and
Speaker 3: Blue Eyes also first time on Blu Ray. There's a
Speaker 3: bonus film on that last one, like I said, but
Speaker 3: that's it. No extras on these. How do you feel
Speaker 3: about TV films?
Speaker 2: I like TV films. I'm glad a lot of them
Speaker 2: are getting releases now because they were kind of notoriously
Speaker 2: hard to find for the longest time, long time. Like
Speaker 2: currently I'm working through the Dan Curtis TV Mysteries box
Speaker 2: set from Keno. Nice. Just love that these are available,
Speaker 2: and yeah, I yeah, they go wow, I'm struggling to talk.
Speaker 2: I'm curious to see if what the surviving elements of
Speaker 2: this are going to be, if they were saved on
Speaker 2: if they were saved on tape or if Yeah, well,
Speaker 2: I'm just curious to see how they look from seventy
Speaker 2: seven to seventy eight eighty three. I would imagine many
Speaker 2: of them were still film elements, especially the first two. Hmm,
Speaker 2: not sure, not sure.
Speaker 3: Brian, who works sound out of New York said the
Speaker 3: sound mixer who recorded Bane for Dark Knight Rises was
Speaker 3: fired after that.
Speaker 2: Studio note, damn. Good to know. Well, thank you for
Speaker 2: the interest in fact I can now add to my story.
Speaker 3: Next up, also from Imprint, they are putting out the
Speaker 3: New Avengers, the Complete Series. This is the same show
Speaker 3: that just got a four K release in the UK
Speaker 3: from I believe studio canal all of the same extras
Speaker 3: as far as I can tell, I don't think there's
Speaker 3: anything new that is on this compared to that one,
Speaker 3: and this is only Blu Ray compared to that four K.
Speaker 3: It's not gonna get another four K release. They would
Speaker 3: lose money if they were to put this out on
Speaker 3: four K. So absolutely an okay choice. But there's a
Speaker 3: lot of people that love British TV and they will
Speaker 3: likely buy this.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I'm not FAMI with the New Avengers, but I
Speaker 2: have seen a handful of The Avengers. A friend of
Speaker 2: a friend of mine they grew up watching The Avengers,
Speaker 2: so I've seen some of the episodes with them. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I when Imprint put out the first series of The Avengers,
Speaker 3: I saw those for the first time and genuinely really
Speaker 3: well made fun show.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a good time, all right, going to our
Speaker 2: next one.
Speaker 3: Sorry, I was getting all kinds of notifications in my
Speaker 3: pocket because of Amber Alerts.
Speaker 2: Good to know. Let me just put that away.
Speaker 3: Mark thirty First, there is a Blu Ray coming from
Speaker 3: Alliance themselves and the Horror Section, which is the Eli
Speaker 3: Roth owned production company of Dream Eater, which came out
Speaker 3: last year. This is going to be their first release
Speaker 3: of this type. It is coming with a slipcover. It
Speaker 3: is going to have some extras on here with a
Speaker 3: director's commentary behind the scenes featurette with Eli Roth, behind
Speaker 3: the scenes photo gallery, some trailers, and then it will
Speaker 3: also have alternate packaging with a rap on the inside
Speaker 3: with filmmaker approved art and a folded mini poster in here.
Speaker 2: Did you happen to see Dream Eater last year? No?
Speaker 2: I didn't even hear it this one.
Speaker 3: Amazingly, not only did I hear about it, I saw
Speaker 3: this in a theater last year and really hated this
Speaker 3: movie all right, Speaking of found footage, that is bad.
Speaker 3: I hated this found footage movie because of exactly what
Speaker 3: you and I said.
Speaker 2: The conceit made zero sense whatsoever. Check it out.
Speaker 3: If anybody else saw this and liked it, please let
Speaker 3: me know. But I I did not like this movie
Speaker 3: in any way. The concept makes no sense, the acting
Speaker 3: is pretty bad. The story I could have liked if
Speaker 3: it was done a little bit differently, but my goodness, did.
Speaker 2: Not like it.
Speaker 3: Next up, another one that I wanted to see over
Speaker 3: this last year, Hallow Road is coming on Blu Ray
Speaker 3: on March thirty first, from Decal and x y Z together.
Speaker 3: This one is with Rosamond Pike and Matthew Reese.
Speaker 2: Not seeing this one any thoughts on either of them. No,
Speaker 2: I like the actors just haven't seen it, haven't heard
Speaker 2: of it. I do not like this poster.
Speaker 3: I feel like we've gotten this exact poster seventy three
Speaker 3: times the last three years.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a poster.
Speaker 3: Just leaning into the absolute trope of every single indie
Speaker 3: film has too many drone shots nowadays.
Speaker 2: That's absolutely true. Next up, let's go back to Australia
Speaker 2: and talk about Umbrella. Are you somebody that has anything
Speaker 2: from Umbrella? H yes, I don't have much. I'm trying
Speaker 2: to think of what I do have, asking the tough question. Sorry, no, no, no,
Speaker 2: it's fine. I think I have their Oh God, give
Speaker 2: me one second, I have to check. I know I
Speaker 2: have at least one title. There's okay, Yeah, I have
Speaker 2: the Pusher trilogy that they put out. Nice, nice, and
Speaker 2: I just got in. I have one other title as well.
Speaker 2: I just can't think of which one. It was, God coldon,
Speaker 2: thank you.
Speaker 3: I hate the drone shots and so many of those
Speaker 3: indie films so much. Yes, Terry has many, many, many
Speaker 3: films from Umbrella. So does Kiray Umm wait and fight
Speaker 3: great release. Absolutely. I just got in literally today the
Speaker 3: release of Lake Mongo here is this box, have not
Speaker 3: even been able to open it yet. Very curious to
Speaker 3: see the documentary that came with this, because I love
Speaker 3: that movie.
Speaker 2: So let's talk about some umbrella.
Speaker 3: May six, they're putting out a four K Blu ray
Speaker 3: dual format release of Matador from nineteen eighty six. This
Speaker 3: is the Pedro Amadovar film that was just recently announced
Speaker 3: on four K over in the UK from Radiance as well,
Speaker 3: so we've got a competing release here. We've got different
Speaker 3: extras on this, so if you love Alma Dovar, you
Speaker 3: might actually want both. We got a commentary from the
Speaker 3: Wives Colangelo. We've got b Jane Harmony Colangelo there, Stephen
Speaker 3: Thrower speaking on Almadovar and the horror film. We've got
Speaker 3: new actor Asumpta Serna interviewed by Enter Focus on this one,
Speaker 3: and then a new featurette called Dangerous Passions. LGBTIQ plus
Speaker 3: filmmakers reflect on Matador.
Speaker 2: How do you feel about Alma Dovar. I've only seen
Speaker 2: a couple of his films. This one I've not seen,
Speaker 2: so this one intrigues me. I might need to pick
Speaker 2: this up. And also I remembered it was super Mario
Speaker 2: Brothers is the other one, and that is a big
Speaker 2: one to remember. I get it, but no, this looks interesting.
Speaker 2: And I also like that the Klanjols are on here.
Speaker 2: They are some of my favorite people talking about film
Speaker 2: and film culture right now.
Speaker 3: So bj is very fun to follow on Instagram and
Speaker 3: I think she's on TikTok because she reposted the same
Speaker 3: videos there. Great great film criticism and very snarky in
Speaker 3: the best of ways.
Speaker 2: I also love her podcast that they do Yes descends
Speaker 2: it prom Yes Yes.
Speaker 3: I'm kind of shocked I remember the exact title because
Speaker 3: my brain is mush right now. Let's carry on to
Speaker 3: the next umbrella. Really did I just skip one accidentally? I?
Speaker 2: Oh, it looked like it.
Speaker 3: So the next one is a very weird or would
Speaker 3: you say out there box set? This is coming on
Speaker 3: May sixth, the Blu ray only on this and it's
Speaker 3: called out There by Towa and I'm saying it's out
Speaker 3: there because these are covering films from nineteen seventy eight,
Speaker 3: one movie from nineteen seventy eight and then two thousand
Speaker 3: and six and two thousand and seven, all produced by Toe.
Speaker 2: But a very interesting setup. Box set.
Speaker 3: We've got a Message from Space from seventy eight. We've
Speaker 3: got Yo Yo Girl Cop from two thousand and.
Speaker 2: Six, Yo Yeah Girl Cop, YEP.
Speaker 3: Hair Extensions from two thousand and seven, and then X
Speaker 3: Cross from two thousand and seven as well. I feel
Speaker 3: like you need to see Yoyo Girl Cop immediately.
Speaker 2: With a title like that, how can I go wrong? Yes,
Speaker 2: I need this box set. It looks like a great release.
Speaker 3: We've got brand new interviews with Kenta Fukusaku, We've got
Speaker 3: commentaries from Sam Deagan on multiple films here. We've got
Speaker 3: Patrick Massias, who's usually pretty great on these. Yeah, I
Speaker 3: need to check this out. This is such an interesting release.
Speaker 3: And yes, I had the exact same thought, Craig. Message
Speaker 3: from Space is coming out. And what's funny is Message
Speaker 3: from Space is a film that was literally stolen into
Speaker 3: a Mexican animated film from decades ago called Roy de
Speaker 3: la Spasio or Roy from Space, and they took a
Speaker 3: scene from a Message from Space and put it in
Speaker 3: the film completely, just ripped it and threw it in
Speaker 3: there with no permission whatsoever. And now def Crocodile had
Speaker 3: to go in and commission people to animate a new
Speaker 3: scene over.
Speaker 2: That part of the movie.
Speaker 3: Whoa brand new hand drawn animation for the film.
Speaker 2: That's nuts.
Speaker 3: Yeah, love that they're doing that, and that's why I
Speaker 3: support def Crocodile with everything. Next up from Umbrella May six,
Speaker 3: a blu ray coming of Uzumaki aka Spiral from two thousand.
Speaker 3: This is the same film that was released here in
Speaker 3: the US already by Discothech, so if you have that,
Speaker 3: you may not need to get this one. But it
Speaker 3: does have some new extra So if you love this
Speaker 3: movie or you love Amberte, you should check it out
Speaker 3: because Amberte's got a new commentary on this, a brand
Speaker 3: new commentary by Elijah Thomas here, as well a bunch
Speaker 3: of interviews that are coming on this film. We've got
Speaker 3: a lot of cool stuff.
Speaker 2: Have you seen Uzumaki? I can't say that I have.
Speaker 2: I feel like that's been the trend of this episode.
Speaker 3: It's the trend of every episode and that's why we're
Speaker 3: all here discovering it together. Do you know who jungji
Speaker 3: Eto is? Yes, this is based on Uzumaki Spiral from
Speaker 3: jungji Eto and it's the first live action version of
Speaker 3: that story.
Speaker 2: Well then I am. I'm pretty sold off of that. Then, now,
Speaker 2: what's interesting.
Speaker 3: If I remember the story right, I believe this was
Speaker 3: actually made while he was still finishing that maga, and
Speaker 3: so the ending here is very different than what you
Speaker 3: see in uh in the actual manga Huzubaki.
Speaker 2: I always find it fascinating when that when something like
Speaker 2: that happens, where an adaptation comes before something's finished. I
Speaker 2: feel like a big example of that was the first
Speaker 2: kick Ass film. He didn't he wasn't done with the series.
Speaker 2: So Matthew Vaughn just made an ending good movie. Though
Speaker 2: I like the kick Yeah, yeah, I don't remember the
Speaker 2: second one, but yeah, so this sounds interesting to me,
Speaker 2: and I'll have to keep an eye on on this one.
Speaker 3: Gary says, I think I'm gonna read the maga because
Speaker 3: the Netflix series and this do not look great. The
Speaker 3: Netflix series is supposedly real bad. This is at least fun.
Speaker 3: I've got the Discothech release, so I don't need this one.
Speaker 3: But this movie is at least a compelling watch, I
Speaker 3: will say. Going to our next announcement, this is the
Speaker 3: last one from Umbrella, a brand new film from last
Speaker 3: year called Diabolic with a C not a K. This
Speaker 3: is one of their smaller films that they tend to
Speaker 3: do this every few months, although they've dropped it off
Speaker 3: the last couple announcements slates. So it's nice to see
Speaker 3: one of these comeback where it's a modern cult title.
Speaker 3: This as seventeen year old Alease undergoes a Baptism for
Speaker 3: the Dead ritual with the FLDS, a Mormon offshoot where
Speaker 3: young women are baptized on behalf of the deceased. I
Speaker 3: really want to see this. Just the setup for that
Speaker 3: film sound compelling to me, especially with my background. Multiple
Speaker 3: audio commentaries on this, three of them to be exact.
Speaker 3: There's also a new promotional featurette. Yeah, what do you
Speaker 3: think about that?
Speaker 2: Another film that I've not heard of, but it looks interesting,
Speaker 2: I agree.
Speaker 3: Two more Hammer titles coming from Studio Canal. On April six,
Speaker 3: We're getting a four K Blu Ray dual format release
Speaker 3: of Blood from the Mummy's Tomb from nineteen seventy one.
Speaker 3: Is a brand new four K restoration with new artwork
Speaker 3: by Johnny Dombrowski. There is a sixty four page booklet
Speaker 3: with new essays and the original press war pages sixty
Speaker 3: four pages wow. Two posters, one of them is the
Speaker 3: new artwork. One of them is the original theatrical artwork.
Speaker 3: We've also got some new on disc extras, including valeries
Speaker 3: Leon Inside of the Mummy's Tomb. We've got That's wrap,
Speaker 3: Kim Newman exploring Blood from the Mummy's Tomb, and all
Speaker 3: kinds of archival extras.
Speaker 2: Hammer. Are you into any of the Hammer films? I do.
Speaker 2: I am in the Hammer. I have not seen a
Speaker 2: huge selection of their stuff, but I do like a
Speaker 2: lot of what I've seen. I just like how operatic
Speaker 2: a lot of their their films are. I just recently
Speaker 2: reviewed the Warner Archive release of Churse Frankenstein, and I
Speaker 2: enjoyed that one quite a bit. I'm an agreement of
Speaker 2: Terry Talks Movies here that this is given Venture Brothers
Speaker 2: very much. So, I actually, I actually really like this art.
Speaker 2: I didn't like it. It's just I thought at first
Speaker 2: I thought it was I truly thought it was a
Speaker 2: Venture Brothers thing that I just didn't know about. But
Speaker 2: for sixty four page book, what that's tempty? It?
Speaker 3: It looks pretty great and it's it's it's a little price.
Speaker 3: It's fifty bucks us U.
Speaker 2: And I feel like I pay that for you know,
Speaker 2: vinegarstation titles. So that's you.
Speaker 3: You absolutely do, uh, but if you want a companion
Speaker 3: piece for it. They're also doing Demons of the Mind
Speaker 3: on the Soliday for dollars. Now it's one hundred dollars.
Speaker 3: And here is the new art on all one needs. Yeah,
Speaker 3: all of their updated art for these.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I kind of like them. And they're they're gonna do
Speaker 3: all of the ones they've got the rights to. You
Speaker 3: just know they are. This looks great again, brand new
Speaker 3: four K restoration, sixty four page booklet with new essays,
Speaker 3: two posters.
Speaker 2: We've got a.
Speaker 3: New Virginia weatherall on Demons of the Mind, audio commentary
Speaker 3: with Steve Haberman, and then all kinds of extras. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I love these Hammer releases. I gotta I gotta say.
Speaker 2: And Craig is right.
Speaker 3: All the Deaf Crocodile releases have sixty page books and
Speaker 3: they're only thirty four bucks.
Speaker 2: Well, like I said, I've already got at least one
Speaker 2: of them in my cart, so we can bump that
Speaker 2: up to about seven. I mean, what, well, you know,
Speaker 2: if you want to donate some funds to help me
Speaker 2: get seven, I won't say no.
Speaker 3: Or if anybody want watching wants to the Shameless Picture Show.
Speaker 3: Patreon link is in the description below too.
Speaker 2: Look at that, Look at you. I'm whoops, always have
Speaker 2: to click something wrong. I'm always terrible at promoting my
Speaker 2: own things, but happy to help you. March third, Sony
Speaker 2: Pictures Classics putting out a Blu ray and DVD release
Speaker 2: of Merely We Roll Along. This is what I alluded
Speaker 2: to earlier.
Speaker 3: You're talking about, Okay, broad Broadway musicals coming to disc.
Speaker 3: I actually saw this in the theater last year, and
Speaker 3: I gotta admit I like this way more than I
Speaker 3: thought I would.
Speaker 2: That there's always been a poster conceit that I hate.
Speaker 2: I hate when the names are up top two different orders. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I know it has to do with contracts and such,
Speaker 2: but it just bugs the hell out of me.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not great. I don't love that they do
Speaker 3: it either. Yeah, I just honestly very impressed that this
Speaker 3: is getting a disc release. I did not expect this
Speaker 3: to get a disc release, but the names in it,
Speaker 3: I guess, you know what, Daniel Radcliffe and Jonathan Groff
Speaker 3: and Lindsay Mendez a big draw.
Speaker 2: I love that they're doing.
Speaker 3: It fun release, and I guess were supposed to get
Speaker 3: a link later film for Merely We Roll Along Eventually too,
Speaker 3: might be fourteen years or whatever, but hey, it's supposedly
Speaker 3: being worked on.
Speaker 2: Let's talk about Street Trash from nineteen eighty seven.
Speaker 3: Light Bulb Films over in the UK, putting out a
Speaker 3: four K in this big limited VHS giant box art
Speaker 3: on April twenty seventh. This is going to have over
Speaker 3: eight hours of extras, including over five hours of brand
Speaker 3: new extras.
Speaker 2: So much to cover.
Speaker 3: Here, from Spookies to Speed Trash and interview with Street
Speaker 3: Trash producer Frank M Ferrell discussing his work on both
Speaker 3: his cult eighties horror films.
Speaker 2: A visual I Say by Daryl Buxton. There's going to
Speaker 2: be a feature length documentary by Jason Impi looking at
Speaker 2: the making of an impact of Street Trash.
Speaker 3: Lots of new stuff here. It's kind of wild. Have
Speaker 3: you seen Street Trash and if so, what do you
Speaker 3: feel about it?
Speaker 2: So I actually have it. I think I have the
Speaker 2: old Synapse DVD of Street Trash. It's been I feel
Speaker 2: like it's been burning a hole on my shelf. I
Speaker 2: feel like I see it every time I go through
Speaker 2: the horror section and I always pass it. By. For
Speaker 2: some reason, I've still not gotten around to watching this
Speaker 2: damn movie. It's not a great movie, but man, is
Speaker 2: this a fun movie.
Speaker 3: I mean, you can't just count on any movie to
Speaker 3: have you throwing around a severed pedis in a junkyard
Speaker 3: like that's got to call your name, right, Yeah, you know,
Speaker 3: And I.
Speaker 2: Agree with Gary telling me you might be selling me.
Speaker 2: I agree with Gary.
Speaker 3: I don't normally love art cards, but when they're melty
Speaker 3: like this, these do look very cool.
Speaker 2: I'm with you. I just never know what to do
Speaker 2: with them, Like when I do and when I get
Speaker 2: films in for a review that come with art cards,
Speaker 2: I'll show them off, but then they just go back
Speaker 2: in the case and I never look at them again.
Speaker 3: I agree, which is why I will never be making
Speaker 3: them on any of my releases.
Speaker 2: God no, well, I guess I didn't say that.
Speaker 3: If a filmmaker is basically demanding it, I will probably
Speaker 3: talk to them. But my god, genre Lan, have you
Speaker 3: seen any genre loan films over the years.
Speaker 2: I'm trying to think it's a film filmmaker I'm really
Speaker 2: familiar with, But I'm trying to think if I've actually
Speaker 2: ever watched any of them. I don't believe, so I
Speaker 2: believe that I actually know. I believe this was a
Speaker 2: this is a blind spot, and at one point I
Speaker 2: had talked with Sam Deacan about coming on my show,
Speaker 2: and we're to discuss some of them but future episodes.
Speaker 3: Jasper is saying, thank you, thank us for not invading Greenland.
Speaker 3: Glad you're here tonight, Jasper, that's amazing. Let's talk about
Speaker 3: the next Indicator released April twentieth in the UK April
Speaker 3: twenty first and the US. There is a separate set
Speaker 3: of four K and Blu ray releases of two genre
Speaker 3: loan films coming. The first is The Grapes of Death

Speaker 3: of archival extras on here, multiple documentaries, multiple featurettes, multiple interviews,
Speaker 3: a critical appreciation by Stephen Thrower, so that you know.

Speaker 3: absolutely be owning it. And while you're there, you may
Speaker 3: as well pick up The Living Dead Girl, which is
Speaker 3: from nineteen eighty two. This is the second title coming
Speaker 3: out in the exact same day. This says a spillage
Speaker 3: of toxic waste causes Catherine de rise from the dead
Speaker 3: with an insatiable taste for blood. Returning to her family home,
Speaker 3: she is reacquainted with her childhood friend Helene, who tries
Speaker 3: to understand Catherine's predicament becomes for accomplice with tragic consequences.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 3: This is going to have another set of commentaries on here,
Speaker 3: one from two thousand and three, one brand new with
Speaker 3: Kevin Lines and Jonathan Rigby, some selected scenes commentary with
Speaker 3: one of the actors, all kinds of archival extras.
Speaker 2: We've got some new interviews.
Speaker 3: There's gonna be a lot of stuff that was previously
Speaker 3: recorded and has now been re edited, which I kind
Speaker 3: of like that that they're updating those. This looks even
Speaker 3: more loaded than the other one. And don't forget each
Speaker 3: of these has a booklet kind of crazy. Highly recommend
Speaker 3: both of these genre on titles, two of his best movies.
Speaker 3: This is a strong month for them.
Speaker 2: They looked cool and yeah, these look really neat, Yeah strong.
Speaker 2: I know that you haven't tried any out yet, but
Speaker 2: these fascination. A couple of the vampire movies like Rape
Speaker 2: of the Vampires pretty decent. Yeah, I recommend checking it out.
Speaker 3: Uh, let's see what is next. We've got Second Run.
Speaker 3: I held up their release of Manthon earlier tonight and
Speaker 3: they don't put out a lot. But we are getting
Speaker 3: Long Live the Republic from nineteen sixty five. This is
Speaker 3: coming on Blu Ray in the UK on March sixteenth.
Speaker 3: This is going to have a new HD transfer of
Speaker 3: the best existing materials by the Czech National Film Archive.
Speaker 3: There is going to be an interview with Carol Kashnya
Speaker 3: from nineteen ninety eight. There is going to be from
Speaker 3: nineteen sixty three, a Memory for the Present Jon Nemes.
Speaker 3: That's probably not the right way you say that name,
Speaker 3: but I am completely uncultured. There's an acclaimed short film
Speaker 3: here reflecting on the memory and legacy of World War Two.
Speaker 3: That is brand new, remastered in HD, a book with a
Speaker 3: new writing on the film by an author named Peter Hayms,
Speaker 3: which you are maybe familiar with because he does a
Speaker 3: lot of this stuff. Jesper, you can only see your
Speaker 3: comments because you're in the portrait stream. You got to
Speaker 3: come over to the landscape stream where all the cool
Speaker 3: kids are hanging out. This is gonna be region free.
Speaker 3: Pretty much all of the Second Run releases are region free.
Speaker 3: Are you into any check Films.
Speaker 2: Can't say that I've seen any, nor do I own
Speaker 2: anything from Second Run, but it's cool covered. I'm intrigued,
Speaker 2: very very strong company. You can definitely trust what they
Speaker 2: put out. They do great work.
Speaker 3: Next, Cobra Kai, a show that I've seen nothing from,
Speaker 3: is getting a Blu Ray complete series release, and the
Speaker 3: last season is getting a standalone DVD release on March third.
Speaker 3: That is coming from Sony Pictures themselves. Netflix does not
Speaker 3: own that show, which is why they're able to release it.
Speaker 3: It is not a Netflix it's not a Netflix production.
Speaker 3: It was just a Netflix streaming exclusive. So Sony's the
Speaker 3: one that made the choice to be able to put
Speaker 3: this out all sixty five filmed or all sixty five episodes.
Speaker 3: Sorry are coming. You've got all kinds of discs. I
Speaker 3: think it's fifteen discs.
Speaker 2: You've got some leaded scenes, featurettes, blooper real stuff like that.
Speaker 2: Cobra Kai. Person watched all of it with my wife,
Speaker 2: and it's actually funny. My wife watched all of it.
Speaker 2: She got really hooked on it with me, and she
Speaker 2: had never seen any of the Karate Kid films. Wow.
Speaker 2: And I I don't particularly like the first Karate Kid movie.
Speaker 2: My my favorite Karate Kid movie is the Next Karate Kid.
Speaker 2: So I'm sure I'll get banned from this show now
Speaker 2: for that. My order of ranking actually goes Next Karate
Speaker 2: Kid three to one. Wow. That is the hottest of
Speaker 2: takes that I've ever heard on I think, you know.
Speaker 2: But like, this show is just really trashy and fun
Speaker 2: and I had a good time. I wouldn't say it's
Speaker 2: a good show, but I had a lot of fun
Speaker 2: with it.
Speaker 3: I got one person saying the hell, one person saying
Speaker 3: banish him.
Speaker 2: That's uh all right, yeah, yeah, I used to it.
Speaker 2: Cobra Kai is actually better than any of the Karate
Speaker 2: Kid sequels. Says Gary, that's fair. I gotta be honest.
Speaker 3: I have never been a Karate Kid person myself. I've
Speaker 3: seen the first one many many times, don't really love
Speaker 3: any of the sequels, and I don't I don't love
Speaker 3: the first one. There is nothing about Cobra Kaine that
Speaker 3: seems interesting to me at all.
Speaker 2: Honestly, the only other take that I have had that
Speaker 2: has gotten me this kind of hate was that I
Speaker 2: think Ghostbuster is a bad movie interesting and Ghostbusters too
Speaker 2: is significantly better. I may be in line with that.
Speaker 3: It's been a long time since I've seen the sequel,
Speaker 3: but yeah.
Speaker 2: Interesting, all right. Well, I didn't want to mention real
Speaker 2: quick that someone else agrees with me in the chat
Speaker 2: that the Next Karate Kid is also their favorite, so
Speaker 2: I a little bit of you know, commonality there.
Speaker 3: Scott is saying, I'm probably the only person on earth
Speaker 3: who loves the Next Karate Kid.
Speaker 2: So definitely not hell Yeah me, Scott, we can be friends.
Speaker 2: Silent Man well hates Ghostbusters. You got friends there too,
Speaker 2: all right, Ronnie says, loving the hot takes. Yeah, you're
Speaker 2: obviously not getting banished. We love every I don't know
Speaker 2: one person did say banish him It's a good thing.
Speaker 2: They don't control the show.
Speaker 3: Speaking of controlling the show, I do control my podcast network,
Speaker 3: which is why I was able to welcome today two
Speaker 3: in the Pinku is now a part of the Someone's
Speaker 3: Favorite Productions podcast network.
Speaker 2: Please come check out the show. The show is amazing.
Speaker 3: Anything about pink film, anything about gay pinku, anything about
Speaker 3: I always forget the word for it. What is the burazoku?
Speaker 3: Is the other one for gay pinku?
Speaker 2: Nakatsu Roman Porno, Absolutely Love Dakota, The Dakota and Chris
Speaker 2: Brand new episode out today on the Films of Hissiasusado
Speaker 2: Volume two.
Speaker 3: Please go download and check it out. The show is amazing.
Speaker 3: Are you into pink films? Have you heard of the show?
Speaker 2: I've heard you talk about the show. I've not seen
Speaker 2: a lot of pink films, but the show intrigues me. People.
Speaker 3: I just like Gary's comment don't ban him, but sweep
Speaker 3: his leg is a really funny comment.
Speaker 2: I seem to have created some dissonance in your comments,
Speaker 2: and I think I have personally offended the deaf crocodile people.
Speaker 2: I hope so all the crazies find out they're not alone.
Speaker 3: It's worth it. Check out two in the Pink EO.
Speaker 3: I just love saying that title. Next March seventeenth, Warner
Speaker 3: Archive releasing the Humphrey Bogart Collection. This will include Passage
Speaker 3: to Marseille, We've got Conflict, Chain Lightning, and they Dry
Speaker 3: by Night. I love these packages because you're getting four
Speaker 3: different discs. Every single film has their own discs still
Speaker 3: the exact same disc that was released in the standalone
Speaker 3: Blu ray. And if you don't own any of these movies,
Speaker 3: it'll be cheap. This is going to come out and
Speaker 3: you'll be able to get this for like thirty two bucks.
Speaker 3: And it's four great releases all in one one set.
Speaker 3: I mean, there's nothing to complain about here now.
Speaker 2: I really love what the One Archive is doing. Heck,
Speaker 2: I was even a big support of them back when
Speaker 2: they were just doing made on demand discs. I just
Speaker 2: like that this stuff is being put out there. Most
Speaker 2: of those made on demand discs are not good anymore, No,
Speaker 2: they're not. I think I still have Don't be Afraid
Speaker 2: of the Dark or Yeah, I think I still I
Speaker 2: haven't tested it in a while, however, I will give
Speaker 2: One Archives Warner Brothers some credit. I reached out to
Speaker 2: them with some discs that had issues, and they sent
Speaker 2: me replacements.
Speaker 3: I feel like they pick and choose who they're sending
Speaker 3: replacements to. There are some people that never get any
Speaker 3: response or any discs, and then others are like, yeah,
Speaker 3: I've always gotten everything from Warner.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they sent me a new version of my teenage
Speaker 2: Mutan Ninja Turtles colle that was skipping, so so I'll
Speaker 2: give him some credit. Nice.
Speaker 3: Nice, Only two announcements left and then we're done. February
Speaker 3: twenty fourth, we are getting a blu ray of Debs
Speaker 3: from two thousand and four.
Speaker 2: This is one that I've always wanted to see. You
Speaker 2: have not been able to check out.
Speaker 3: Crime Boss Lucy Diamond is back in the States and
Speaker 3: the DEBS, an elite team of paramilitary, college co ed superspies,
Speaker 3: are hot on her trail. But when their top agent,
Speaker 3: gorgeous Amy Bradshaw My, seriously disappears after coming face to
Speaker 3: face with the young villainess, the Debs begin a full
Speaker 3: scale search for Lucy's secret layer, never suspecting that Amy
Speaker 3: may not want to be rescued. After all, A smart
Speaker 3: and sexy spy spoof about love at first gun sight.
Speaker 3: This is going to have the director's commentary, cast commentary,
Speaker 3: deleted scenes infiltrating Debs, and an animatic and I have
Speaker 3: to shout out. Ronnie is thrilled about this, says so
Speaker 3: excited about Debs finally getting a Blu Ray. Great lesbian
Speaker 3: spy comedy that was misunderstood and very wrongly panned by
Speaker 3: clueless mainstream hetero film critics upon its release. And it's
Speaker 3: Ronnie's birthday, so Mary, Merry Christmas, Happy birthday, So glad
Speaker 3: you're stoked. Congrats Ronnie, this is great love. Seeing this
Speaker 3: one on site nearly crushed me.
Speaker 2: I think I'm just getting tired, Like that was way
Speaker 2: funnier than I was expecting it to be. I've not
Speaker 2: seen it. I've seen I feel like I remember seeing
Speaker 2: this cover somewhere, but yeah, I've never seen it.
Speaker 3: This was like one of the last video store posters
Speaker 3: that were everywhere.
Speaker 2: For a while. I mean, that's why I know it,
Speaker 2: because yeah, that sounds right.
Speaker 3: And then our last one for the night, well go USA,
Speaker 3: putting out the twenty twenty four film Ghost Train on
Speaker 3: Blu Ray and DVD on February seventeenth.
Speaker 2: This says a young.
Speaker 3: YouTuber is desperate to boost her channel's popularity with content
Speaker 3: about a mysterious train station famous for its haunted history
Speaker 3: of suicides and disappearances. When she upload it's a video
Speaker 3: about the eerie urban legends, it goes viral overnight, and
Speaker 3: like most creators, she's hungry for more.
Speaker 2: Despite everyone's warnings, she asks the station master for more
Speaker 2: ghost stories, but while investigating the strange disappearances, she uncovers
Speaker 2: a terrifying and deadly truth. From what I just read,
Speaker 2: I believe this is an anthology film. How do you
Speaker 2: feel about anthologies? I'm mixed on anthologies. I should I
Speaker 2: love the idea of them. A lot of times, they
Speaker 2: often feel longer because it's it's like, so, I've gone
Speaker 2: to a lot of film festivals, and even though I
Speaker 2: have made primarily short films, I hate going to short
Speaker 2: film blocks because it feels a two hour block. When
Speaker 2: you're watching like twelve short films and you're going through
Speaker 2: that many ups and downs and narrative arcs, it feels exhausting.
Speaker 2: And I often feel that way with anthology films. There's
Speaker 2: ones I really like, but it's not a type of
Speaker 2: film that I get excited for. Right, another hot take
Speaker 2: that I'll probably you know, get some hate for. I
Speaker 2: don't really like Creep Show that much and big reason
Speaker 2: why it feels really long, Like there's some of the
Speaker 2: segments I like, but as a whole, I don't think
Speaker 2: the film folly works for me understandable. I do get that.
Speaker 2: I disagree, but I get it. I do get it.
Speaker 2: Everyone disagrees with me. That's fine, it is true. Everyone
Speaker 2: has never agreed with you. That is right.
Speaker 3: Anthology films, I will say, I like a lot of them,
Speaker 3: and then a lot of them are also just truly awful,
Speaker 3: not not even like remarkably close to being decent.
Speaker 2: So it's it's one of those things. The medium is tough. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I did love Tails from the Hood though, I just
Speaker 2: saw that one. That one's great, Yeah, that one is great.
Speaker 2: I feel my enjoyment of a anthal A big part
Speaker 2: of it comes down to how strong the wrap around is,
Speaker 2: that is true, or if they can do something, say
Speaker 2: like more in the vein of Trick or Treat, where
Speaker 2: there isn't a wrap around, but all the stories bleed
Speaker 2: into each other so seamlessly, it feels like I'm watching
Speaker 2: one film.
Speaker 3: I love Trick or Treat. I think it is maybe
Speaker 3: the best anthology film ever made.
Speaker 2: I will agree with you at least my favorite if anything.
Speaker 3: Well, that is all the announcements for the week. Let's
Speaker 3: now remind people what is coming out next week. This
Speaker 3: is the last week of the month, so all of

Speaker 2: I was like, Hey, I'm really interested in this, he goes.
Speaker 2: I'll be completely honest with you. I don't feel like,
Speaker 2: it's worth the price of shipping, where you can just
Speaker 2: get it from Amazon for a better price. I'm like, well,
Speaker 2: I appreciate your honesty. I guess that you don't want
Speaker 2: to rip me off, but it's weird and I'm potentially
Speaker 2: buying a criterion from Pat Healy.

Speaker 2: been curious. It's not bad. I have me and my wife.
Speaker 2: We have a fondness for rom comms. It's not bad.
Speaker 2: They actually have a lot more chemistry together than you
Speaker 2: would expect. Interesting. I don't remember a lot about it,
Speaker 2: but I don't feel like it was a waste of
Speaker 2: my time, if that makes any sense. It does make
Speaker 2: sense the thing with feathers. Did you see that last year? No?
Speaker 2: I did not. It's a very weird movie.
Speaker 3: I don't know anybody else has who has seen it,

Speaker 2: I thought interesting.
Speaker 3: Movie kind of had some fun practical effects that are
Speaker 3: pretty cool. Pulse coming out next week from the Studio.
Speaker 3: Trickully or Trifle from Co and Media Group is coming

Speaker 2: I don't do a whole lot of pre orders. I
Speaker 2: know you said it's not coming anytime soon, but I
Speaker 2: really have my eye on Gator Bait. It's just a
Speaker 2: type of film that I really enjoy have my eye on.
Speaker 2: Married to the Mob. I saw that they had the
Speaker 2: the best worst movie documentary and along with I think
Speaker 2: Americans Scares, it was a dupe documentary set that looks fun.
Speaker 2: The Great Silence I didn't love the first time I saw,
Speaker 2: but I want to see it again because I watched
Speaker 2: off a really bad DVD.
Speaker 3: That, Yeah, you need to watch it again. It's one
Speaker 3: of the greatest spaghetti was I'm also.
Speaker 2: Firm believer that, you know, sometimes you're just not in
Speaker 2: the right mindset for some movies, and that is fine,
Speaker 2: you know, and also at the same time, not everything
Speaker 2: is for everyone. That is true. Although I wasn't in
Speaker 2: the right mindset for that movie because I love Westerns,
Speaker 2: everything about it is a movie that I would love.
Speaker 2: I just don't think I was fully locked in when
Speaker 2: I watched it.
Speaker 3: We had a question from Gary. Gary wants to know
Speaker 3: what is bad Things? It is a Shutter release that
Speaker 3: was through OCN. He says it reminds me of The Exorcist,
Speaker 3: and it says a group of friends go to a
Speaker 3: hotel for a weekend get away and soon discover that
Speaker 3: women do bad things here.
Speaker 2: That is a really bad synopsis. It is. It is oh,
Speaker 2: and I am excited for the mechanic. I'm a Charles Bronson.
Speaker 3: Guide Bronson, I huh, good to know, good to know.
Speaker 2: Well, let's get into shameless.
Speaker 3: Let's talk about some of the history with the show
Speaker 3: real quick before we get into our list. What are
Speaker 3: some of your favorite films that you saw for the
Speaker 3: first time doing the show over the years.
Speaker 2: Well, I mentioned at the beginning of the show, but
Speaker 2: The Godfather that was a perfect example of a movie
Speaker 2: that I had never seen before I did the show.
Speaker 2: And it's not because I didn't want to watch it.
Speaker 2: It's just sometimes with these big films, you're just like, well,
Speaker 2: it's not going anywhere, and I don't think I'm gonna
Speaker 2: dislike it, so it just got I got pushed down
Speaker 2: the list. So that was one. I still have to
Speaker 2: watch the sequels. But I I just I'm really bad
Speaker 2: about making time for some of these movies. Some other
Speaker 2: films that I saw for the first time that I
Speaker 2: really loved. I saw Face in the Dark, Sorry, I
Speaker 2: Facing the Crowd. I really loved that one. Mikey and
Speaker 2: Nicky I saw for the first time doing this show.
Speaker 2: Really enjoyed that one. I'm going through my list of
Speaker 2: episodes because I've been doing this for ten years, so
Speaker 2: it's not always easy to remember everything. I did Little Darlings,
Speaker 2: great movie. That was probably one of my favorite episodes.
Speaker 2: I really enjoyed that. Let's See Sunset Ball I saw
Speaker 2: for the first time because of this show. Let's See
Speaker 2: what else? Oh, Betty Blue I saw because of my podcast.
Speaker 2: Oh wow, and uh. A friend of mine was so
Speaker 2: was so wanting me to see it. He shipped me
Speaker 2: the Criterion, so I'd moved to the top of my
Speaker 2: list and I did. Let's see what else stuck out
Speaker 2: with me that I watched for the first time because
Speaker 2: of this Do you have anything from Second Site over
Speaker 2: the UK? I do. I do have a couple Second
Speaker 2: Site releases. I have their release of Drive, I have
Speaker 2: the release of The Guest, I have their original Super
Speaker 2: Mario Brothers. They put out that movie is a hyperfixation
Speaker 2: for me, and I think I have a couple more.
Speaker 2: I just can't remember them at the time.
Speaker 3: But speaking of that movie, uh, not a lot of
Speaker 3: people have this, and I'm so stoked I've got their
Speaker 3: original release of Betty Blue. It is one of their
Speaker 3: first limited edition releases sideloading. I still can't believe I
Speaker 3: got this really really great release.
Speaker 2: In the movie, I do not have the criteria, this
Speaker 2: is the one I went with, so anyways, just want
Speaker 2: to show no, I love that. So yeah, that's just
Speaker 2: a couple of the handful of things that I've seen since.
Speaker 2: Like I said, with the conceit of the show, it's
Speaker 2: not always movies that I haven't seen it, sometimes that
Speaker 2: the other person haven't seen. I think the episodes work
Speaker 2: best when one of the people on it has seen it,
Speaker 2: but you know, it doesn't always work that way. One
Speaker 2: of my favorite episodes though, that we did it was
Speaker 2: a movie that I absolutely love, which is Rocky. My
Speaker 2: co host had never seen it. And then I have
Speaker 2: a friend of mine who works for the Plaza Theater
Speaker 2: in Atlanta. He had never seen Rocky, so he came
Speaker 2: on to do it. And I also the last half hour,
Speaker 2: maybe forty minutes of that show, I called my good
Speaker 2: friend Lloyd Kaufman up and he did an interview just
Speaker 2: talking about his relationship with John g Awlinson, Wow, which
Speaker 2: he doesn't talk about a lot. Interesting with your show, you.
Speaker 3: Are you're you're programming in a way. You are curating
Speaker 3: tastes out of some things that people give you a
Speaker 3: list for, or some ideas, or just because you know
Speaker 3: some of these people. And so the joy of you
Speaker 3: discovering films is great. But also the film fan love
Speaker 3: of sharing films with people that are brand new is
Speaker 3: always great. So what are some of the ones that
Speaker 3: you had seen? But you got the best enjoyment out
Speaker 3: of showing somebody new on the show.
Speaker 2: So Rocky was obviously a big one that I got
Speaker 2: to show someone because it's a film that honestly means
Speaker 2: quite a lot to me. It's just it's kind of
Speaker 2: a It's one of those theories that was always there
Speaker 2: for me. I loved getting to introduce my former co
Speaker 2: host Nick. He had to step away from the doing
Speaker 2: the show full time, but he still comes on every
Speaker 2: year for our annual Christmas episode, our first Christmas episode
Speaker 2: we ever did was a double feature of Black Christmas
Speaker 2: and The Family Stone, and I love that. I got
Speaker 2: to introduce him to Black Christmas and he showed me
Speaker 2: The Family Stone. Yeah, what a wild double feature. See
Speaker 2: other films that I got to introduce people to that
Speaker 2: I was really excited for was Let's see. So I
Speaker 2: wasn't prepared for this question, so I'm quickly going through
Speaker 2: my list I got to show. I got to introduce
Speaker 2: someone who is not familiar with professional wrestling in any
Speaker 2: way to perform beyond the mat. So it's interesting to
Speaker 2: watch someone's perspective who doesn't know wrestling, to see all
Speaker 2: the behind the scenes of it. How did that do?
Speaker 2: Were they happy to see it? He was fascinated by it.
Speaker 2: He didn't I get out of it what I got
Speaker 2: out of it, But it was He's like, I've never
Speaker 2: thought about professional wrestling, right, so to see the behind
Speaker 2: the scenes of how it's all orchestrated, especially because at
Speaker 2: the time he worked for a theater. He's like, it's
Speaker 2: it's just it's just it's it's He's like, it's it's
Speaker 2: like sports theater. I'm like, yeah, pretty much, yeah, very much.
Speaker 2: So so that was a That was a fun one.
Speaker 2: Getting to introduce someone too because it is it is
Speaker 2: a wild title. I got to introduce uh uh. After
Speaker 2: Nick left the show, I then just had to start
Speaker 2: bringing in co hosts all the time. I got to
Speaker 2: introduce one of my co hosts to Phantom of the Paradise.
Speaker 2: Oh I love that movie. I do too. I also
Speaker 2: got to introduce my former co host to the Monster
Speaker 2: Squad and we had Andre Gower on to discuss it
Speaker 2: with us. That's pretty cool. Yeah. So we also talked
Speaker 2: about his documentary which he made and he was the
Speaker 2: sweetest person. I got to introduced someone to Boogie Knights
Speaker 2: and that was a fun time nice one of the
Speaker 2: more interesting ones. So my former co host Nick, he
Speaker 2: is a big Star Trek fan. We've done multiple Star
Speaker 2: Trek episode our first episode because back when we started
Speaker 2: the Shameless picturehow it was going to be television and movies,
Speaker 2: we didn't do a lot of television, but we started
Speaker 2: off with Star Trek the Next Generation. He's a big
Speaker 2: Star Trek fan, to the point that for our two
Speaker 2: hundred episode, we're gonna do Star Trek the Motion picture Wow,
Speaker 2: because I'd actually never seen it, but he had never
Speaker 2: seen Galaxy Quest, so I thought, well, this is gonna
Speaker 2: be the free to see and it's a really fascinating episode.
Speaker 2: I recommend everyone to listen to it. Because he didn't
Speaker 2: like it, and he didn't like it because he saw
Speaker 2: too much of himself in it and it made him
Speaker 2: have front himself in an interesting way. Huh, And sometimes
Speaker 2: sometimes the show's therapy interesting. Yeah, hmm. You know it's tough.
Speaker 3: I came to your show too late, and I've not
Speaker 3: been able to go back through the archives because you
Speaker 3: have ten freaking years of podcasting behind or more than
Speaker 3: that behind.
Speaker 2: You nearly two hundred episodes. Jesus, not including bonus episodes.
Speaker 2: That's crazy.
Speaker 3: You had a Patreon, like I said LinkedIn the description below,
Speaker 3: what do you do over on your Patreon?
Speaker 2: Well, originally, we're getting back to it. We haven't. We've
Speaker 2: never had that many patrons. Usually we have a couple
Speaker 2: people who kick us a dollar, and I think they
Speaker 2: forget they're even doing it, which is fine, I'll take
Speaker 2: your money. We were my wife and I were doing
Speaker 2: a show called Cage is the Rage. We're working through
Speaker 2: the films of Nicholas Cage in chronological order, and then
Speaker 2: ranking them in terms of cageness. The problem is, I
Speaker 2: don't think anyone was listening to because I don't think
Speaker 2: anyone could figure out how the podcast thing like audio work.
Speaker 2: Like I gave a couple of them away to the
Speaker 2: main feed. Uh, and then since no one was subscribing,
Speaker 2: And this is not like a woe is me thing,
Speaker 2: but I was like, well, I'm not going to keep
Speaker 2: putting them out. There's no one really listening to them.
Speaker 2: But my wife and I we just wanted to get
Speaker 2: back to it. So when when season ten starts out,
Speaker 2: we're going to jump back into it and just probably
Speaker 2: give a couple of them, give a lot of them away,
Speaker 2: and then if there's interest, then put them behind. And
Speaker 2: it's like it's only a buck to get them. Yeah,
Speaker 2: not bad, not bad. So it's not much. It was
Speaker 2: more we Marshall set it up just because I felt
Speaker 2: like because I did have some friends who were like,
Speaker 2: I'd like to kick in something, and I was like, well,
Speaker 2: I only do two episodes a month, so I already
Speaker 2: struggled even put right content sometimes because I'm I do
Speaker 2: so much other stuff. But I feel that so deeply. Yeah,
Speaker 2: but you put out weekly shows I'm live. Thankfully, I
Speaker 2: don't have to edit or anything like that. And it's funny,
Speaker 2: Like I used to joke, it's like, you know, I
Speaker 2: give away the edited stuff for free, and then the
Speaker 2: stuff that I don't edit I put up on Patreon
Speaker 2: people pay for. Yep, that is that is true.
Speaker 3: I don't know, did you do you want to reveal
Speaker 3: that I am. I am doing an episode here soon
Speaker 3: and what we're recovering.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I can only I can only tell people
Speaker 2: what some of the upcoming episodes are. So for episode
Speaker 2: two hundred, which is going to be releasing probably like
Speaker 2: second maybe third week, in probably second week into February,
Speaker 2: they're doing Star Trek the motion picture. The episode right
Speaker 2: after that, which is episode two oh one, Ryan will
Speaker 2: be joining us to discuss Godzilla minus one, which he
Speaker 2: had told me he had not seen yet and it
Speaker 2: was probably my favorite movie of the year it came out,
Speaker 2: So I'm really excited to talk with him about that.
Speaker 2: I've got an episode Clueless coming up with Millie de Cheriico.
Speaker 2: On top of that, I also have Austin Procter The
Speaker 2: Frightmar's podcast. When he was here, we recorded an episode
Speaker 2: on Hudsucker Proxy, So we got some good stuff coming up.
Speaker 3: You've also done some interviews on your show you want
Speaker 3: to you want to shout out any of the names
Speaker 3: that you've had for that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, of course. So the interviews have always been interesting
Speaker 2: because I always give anyone who comes on the option.
Speaker 2: It's like, you know, here's the theme of the show,
Speaker 2: here's what we do. But if you don't want to
Speaker 2: dedicate yourself to having to watch a movie, like sometimes
Speaker 2: the people I'm interviewing are busy, I give him the option.
Speaker 2: But if they do come on to discuss a movie,
Speaker 2: I still try to work an interview in. So like
Speaker 2: recently I had Alonzo Dealdy on and we were talking
Speaker 2: about Christmas movies in general, because it's another topic that
Speaker 2: I'm obsessed with. I've had various people on I'm Going.
Speaker 2: I had Phil Hopkins, a Phil Masters on UH and
Speaker 2: he is just a delight to talk to. And I
Speaker 2: film Masters is one of my favorite companies currently, favorite
Speaker 2: boutique labels they're making there. There's so many films that
Speaker 2: used to come on those crappy mill Creek to like
Speaker 2: two hundred horror movie collections that were hard to even
Speaker 2: get through and they're breathing new life into them. I tormented.
Speaker 2: I tried to watch so many times before they put
Speaker 2: out the Blu Ray, and I was riveted. Also, David
Speaker 2: Gregory from Severin on very recently. He was He's just
Speaker 2: a phenomenal guest and just very kind with his time,
Speaker 2: which I appreciate. I've had some. I've had people like
Speaker 2: Lusey Tomlin Brenner on UH. She is a comedian in
Speaker 2: Los Angeles. She also runs I'm Sorry You Say is great.
Speaker 2: Lussy is great. She is been on my show twice
Speaker 2: and absolutely a gem. I've had Susan Kerns on my podcast,
Speaker 2: which may not be a name a lot of you know,
Speaker 2: but she is the current executive director for Milwaukee Film.
Speaker 2: On top of that, she's also teaches. She used to
Speaker 2: teach film at Columbia College. But she also wrote an
Speaker 2: essay for the Tank Girl release for that Umbrella put out. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so she she's She produced one of my early films
Speaker 2: and we've been friends ever since. I also had Maggie
Speaker 2: Greenwald on my show, who directed the Ballad of Little Joe.
Speaker 2: Oh interesting. I don't know that many people have seen,
Speaker 2: but it is a great little Western also had Robert Tanell,
Speaker 2: who directed the movie Frankenstein and Me, which is a
Speaker 2: movie that just profoundly moved me. So I've had some
Speaker 2: cool people on.
Speaker 3: It's it's always weird when I'm talking with somebody on
Speaker 3: the show and they mentioned the name that I've been
Speaker 3: emailing with this week. By the way, thanks for that contact.
Speaker 2: You're welcome. You're gonna have to tell me how that's
Speaker 2: going off.
Speaker 3: Yes, let's break down some shameless items now. So these
Speaker 3: we're going to talk about maybe why we haven't seen
Speaker 3: these and what they are, and if the other person
Speaker 3: has seen them, we'll give some shout outs there. So
Speaker 3: I'll give my first one, and I try to make
Speaker 3: these very far apart in a way where they're like
Speaker 3: different styles or different levels of well, they're all well known,
Speaker 3: but they're different levels of like, man, this is pretty shameful.
Speaker 2: My first one.
Speaker 3: I've said this on the show, and a couple of
Speaker 3: these y'all have heard before, but I don't think Michael's
Speaker 3: ever heard these, So I'm gonna blow his mind a
Speaker 3: little bit with these.
Speaker 2: The first one is nineteen fifty seven's the seventh seal
Speaker 2: of the Bergman film.
Speaker 3: I have never seen any Bergman film as of this point.
Speaker 2: Guess what meaning look at that? Yeah, and I will say,
Speaker 2: and this is probably sorry, I keep getting like into
Speaker 2: your music. The music. That's plain for me. The reason
Speaker 2: I had not seen The Seven Seal and seen a
Speaker 2: lot of Bergmann films and is just honestly, when I
Speaker 2: first heard about them, they looked boring. Yeah, and I'm
Speaker 2: not saying they are. I also when I first heard
Speaker 2: about Bergmann, I my journey as a cinephile was completely different.
Speaker 2: But I just think because of that, like I don't know,
Speaker 2: I guess part of me is like, well, I've seen
Speaker 2: Last Action Hero, so I'm sure I've seen enough. I've
Speaker 2: seen The Seven Seal, which is funny to me anyways.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I just I when I was younger, I
Speaker 2: just figured they would be boring, and I'm sure I
Speaker 2: would actually really enjoy them. I just need to make
Speaker 2: the time to sit down and watch them. I agree.
Speaker 3: And I showed my kids Last Action here about a
Speaker 3: year and a half ago, and they seemed to be
Speaker 3: mildly amused by a couple of scenes.
Speaker 2: And yet here, I'm like, this movie is a master mace.
Speaker 2: It's a fun time. It was way different than I
Speaker 2: remembered it being. That's for sure. List of five, what
Speaker 2: is the first one that you're gonna bring up tonight?
Speaker 2: This one is surprising even to me. Uh seven Samurai.
Speaker 2: Oh as of current, I've only seen one Kurasyle film
Speaker 2: and that was Rashman, And honestly, I just need to
Speaker 2: bite the bullet and buy a bunch of those criterions
Speaker 2: that they've woken out. But sometimes my scene things is
Speaker 2: you're rely a what's in front of me thing. There
Speaker 2: is a sense of discovery that comes from it, Like
Speaker 2: I can go online and buy pretty much anything, but
Speaker 2: I need to not do that, so I wait till
Speaker 2: things kind of find me. Sometimes.
Speaker 3: I don't know why this was so funny to me,
Speaker 3: but Craig saying seven Sam's is pretty good makes me
Speaker 3: laugh so much because it sounds like he's on a
Speaker 3: first name basis with it. Yeah, I mean curs Alba,
Speaker 3: like he's one of the best. Like that's not hard
Speaker 3: to say, obviously, but I mean even then, like I
Speaker 3: saw durse Uzzala that he did, I don't love that movie,
Speaker 3: say Samurai, good movie.
Speaker 2: It's just one of those films. It's just he's one
Speaker 2: of those directors like, I know I'm gonna like this.
Speaker 2: I know I'm gonna like the works he does. It's funny.
Speaker 2: I have a I have a large frame poster of
Speaker 2: a Carre cris Alas dreams and I don't never seen
Speaker 2: in the movie, but I found it at a store
Speaker 2: and I had to have it. That's great.
Speaker 3: I wanted to highlight this because Sibmoners says, I've never
Speaker 3: seen a Studio Ghibli movie, and he's got the little
Speaker 3: eye peaking emoji next to it. This is like the
Speaker 3: definition of the shameless picture show. Yeah, he's worried about revealing.
Speaker 2: That you should never feel shame about the things that
Speaker 2: you haven't seen. This only so many hours in the day,
Speaker 2: it is okay. The biggest thing is you should just
Speaker 2: be not necessarily be proud of it, but you should
Speaker 2: own it and know that it's always there for you
Speaker 2: to discover.
Speaker 3: Yep, agreed, completely agreed. My next one is a big
Speaker 3: one for me that I've been meaning to watch for
Speaker 3: like the longest time. I just for some reason have
Speaker 3: not prioritized it. I have still not seen nineteen sixty
Speaker 3: seven's Cool Hand Luke.
Speaker 2: I actually just saw that for the first time on film,
Speaker 2: Like two years ago, Milwaukee Film showed it, and that's
Speaker 2: what I'm talking about. Sometimes, Like I love Paul Newman
Speaker 2: and for and I just had never gotten around to
Speaker 2: Cool Hand Luke. But then I saw it was playing,
Speaker 2: I was like, well, and this is how I'm going
Speaker 2: to see it. I wait for some in I probably
Speaker 2: would I seen more stuff sometimes if I wouldn't do.
Speaker 2: But sometimes I just kind of wait for a movie
Speaker 2: to find me, because I truly do believe movies find
Speaker 2: you when you're supposed to see them, agreed completely.
Speaker 3: And sometimes the first time you see them, you weren't
Speaker 3: supposed to see them, and you don't like them, and
Speaker 3: you'll find later that you just weren't ready for it yet.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Cool Hand Luke was a movie that I remember
Speaker 2: getting into a conversation with a local film critic about
Speaker 2: right afterwards, where I was profoundly moved by the film,
Speaker 2: and he goes, I thought it was really stupid. It's like,
Speaker 2: well we are. We had two very different reactions to
Speaker 2: this movie because you you weren't supposed to discover this
Speaker 2: film yet. That's true, absolutely true.
Speaker 3: Terry in the chat says Ryan has had a failure
Speaker 3: to communicate with the cool hand, Luke. This is one
Speaker 3: of the reasons I've always needed to see this because
Speaker 3: my dad quoted this line to me all the damn
Speaker 3: time and never showed me the movie, just told me
Speaker 3: what it was from.
Speaker 2: I need to see it big time. There's a there's
Speaker 2: I had seen one scene from it, probably because of
Speaker 2: the uh you know, retrospectives and Turner classic movies where
Speaker 2: he eats like a shit ton of boiled eggs.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is probably true.
Speaker 3: Noodle's a lot more Simpsons episodes will make sense if
Speaker 3: do you sequel hand, Luke.
Speaker 2: It's honestly true. It's like the same thing when I
Speaker 2: started getting into Hitchcock. It's like, oh wow, so many
Speaker 2: more of these jokes make sense now, all right, second
Speaker 2: on your list for tonight. So this one has been
Speaker 2: on my list for since it came out, and it's
Speaker 2: now gotten to a point where I'm intentionally not seen
Speaker 2: it until my wife or minds until my wife pretty
Speaker 2: much says we need to watch it. There will be blood, wow,
Speaker 2: big that one when it came out, There will be
Speaker 2: blood and no Country for old men. Were both going
Speaker 2: for the Oscar, and I swore my allegiance to No
Speaker 2: Country for Old Men. Well you chose wisely overall. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I was like, I can't see there will be Blood,
Speaker 2: and then I it's kind of it's gotten to the
Speaker 2: point where I've been working. I think there's only besides
Speaker 2: there will be Blood, there's only three Pta movies I
Speaker 2: still need to see, and so I just kind of
Speaker 2: feel like it needs to be the last one I watch,
Speaker 2: or whenever my wife is, because my wife has seen
Speaker 2: it and she keeps forgetting that I've never seen it.
Speaker 2: So I was like, the day that she was like,
Speaker 2: let's put this on, will be it? Yeah, that's I mean,
Speaker 2: that would be a fun experience too.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Terry, completely understandable reason. Craig says, we were just
Speaker 3: talking about There Will be Blood last night, one of
Speaker 3: those films that's so damn good but you don't rush
Speaker 3: out to watch it again.
Speaker 2: That is absolutely true.
Speaker 3: Good movie, good movie. I'm excited for you to see it.
Speaker 3: I'm curious to how do you feel about Pta overall?
Speaker 2: From I like him overall. I don't think there's been
Speaker 2: any of his films that I've disliked. Yeah, that makes sense,
Speaker 2: Like even his even the ones that for me the least,
Speaker 2: I still find endlessly fascinating. Like Punch Drunk. Love is
Speaker 2: a movie that I have mixed feelings on, but I
Speaker 2: think about it all the time. Yeah, it's a good movie,
Speaker 2: beautiful movie. Love the way it looks. My next one
Speaker 2: is one that I have.
Speaker 3: Heard from a couple of people that I would love,
Speaker 3: and it was like, all right, adding to the watch
Speaker 3: list and then never referring to the list again. I
Speaker 3: still have not checked out nineteen nineteen seventy four's Cassavetti's
Speaker 3: Joint A Woman under the Influence, one that gets referenced
Speaker 3: so many times, still have not put it in.
Speaker 2: I have that So. I'm friends with one of my
Speaker 2: film professors from college, and he's been downsized and getting
Speaker 2: rid of a lot of his movies. I think actually remember
Speaker 2: sending you a picture. I bought a bunch of those
Speaker 2: Corman shout factory sets from him, and I got a
Speaker 2: really good price on them, I'll tell you, because I
Speaker 2: don't think he looked at what they're worth. But he
Speaker 2: also sold me all of his Cassavetti's DVDs, so I
Speaker 2: have almost all of his films on the shelf, but
Speaker 2: I've only killing of a Chinese Bookie. So it's one
Speaker 2: of the Now that I have them all, it's like, okay,
Speaker 2: now I want to kind of work through once again.
Speaker 2: They found me. Yeah, now I just need to actually
Speaker 2: make the time for them. But right, yeah, I need
Speaker 2: to see it.
Speaker 3: Heard nothing but great things about General Olins in that movie.
Speaker 2: Just no excuse. I need to see it for sure.
Speaker 2: So my next one is another. I don't want to
Speaker 2: say it's a contemporary film because it's almost it's like
Speaker 2: twenty six years old at this point. But Gladiator, uh
Speaker 2: so when it came out, I was like ten years old,
Speaker 2: so I had I had no interest in it when
Speaker 2: I started getting older. Russell just didn't do much for me.
Speaker 2: I there's things I like him in. I love them
Speaker 2: in nice Guys. I like him in Three Tender Yuma,
Speaker 2: but like he's not he was never that. He wasn't
Speaker 2: moving units for me right and I've kind of I'm
Speaker 2: mixed on Ridley Scott. So it just it was a
Speaker 2: movie I just keep putting off. But the way my
Speaker 2: tastes have evolved over these, I think it's a movie
Speaker 2: I'm really gonna like. Yeah, it's just I need to
Speaker 2: find my way to it. What are what are some
Speaker 2: of your favorite release scots. I love Alien, of course,
Speaker 2: that's an easy one. And I'm uh in the camp
Speaker 2: that where I prefer Alien over Aliens because I prefer aliens.
Speaker 2: Saw Blade Runner recently because of my show, was really
Speaker 2: uh impressed by that. I love Legend. We were just
Speaker 2: talking about that one of the discord too. But there's
Speaker 2: there's still a lot of blind spots I've not seen,
Speaker 2: like like you know, I saw House of Gucci or whatever.
Speaker 2: Uh I saw Robin Hood or whatever, but like I've
Speaker 2: not seen them one Louise yet I have the criterion.
Speaker 2: I just need to said, uh, so he's got an
Speaker 2: interesting career. I was always a bigger fan of Tony Scott.
Speaker 2: Same same, same, same, like just I don't know, like
Speaker 2: I man, I had so many films in film school
Speaker 2: that I would just bring a fog machine onto set
Speaker 2: just because I wanted the Tony Scott look, or i'd
Speaker 2: have I'd have all the grips just smoke cigarettes. Let's
Speaker 2: be real, grips are always fucking smoking cigarettes. Man, them
Speaker 2: and the best boys, dammit, yep. I uh, I don't
Speaker 2: know why, but as soon as you said, I always
Speaker 2: prefer Tony Scott. I wanted to make a really terrible.
Speaker 3: Walk hard reference to say the wrong Scott died, but uh,
Speaker 3: that seemed in poor taste. My number four is one
Speaker 3: that everybody's gonna laugh at because I've talked about it
Speaker 3: on the show so so so many times. I'm sorry.
Speaker 3: I know that it needs to happen, and my plan
Speaker 3: is to do it this year. I just need to
Speaker 3: do it without the kids nearby. I have still never
Speaker 3: seen Opera or Akira however disnounced Oh okay, eighty eight
Speaker 3: it's a big one. I just got the four K
Speaker 3: last year. I need to see it.
Speaker 2: I've heard nothing but amazing things. Uh. Yeah, Anime is
Speaker 2: not a strong suit of mine. It's not one that
Speaker 2: I've seen a ton from no me, but I've I've
Speaker 2: been getting more into it. Yeah I had. I had
Speaker 2: a huge aversion to it because I was being a
Speaker 2: pretentious fuck for a long time. Yep, and I uh,
Speaker 2: I like which is so annoying because I used to
Speaker 2: read Mango when I was in middle school, because I
Speaker 2: feel like most people did at least at one point,
Speaker 2: but then, like I went to high school with some
Speaker 2: kids who just really took it too fucking far and
Speaker 2: they just shot out of me. And then I just
Speaker 2: kind of got on my high horse with it. But
Speaker 2: I'm I'm discovering one that I know I was a
Speaker 2: pretentious fuck wad then and then two there's a lot
Speaker 2: of really brilliant storytelling. Yeah, it's true. What's what's your
Speaker 2: favorite anime you've seen so far? Let's see said I've
Speaker 2: been going through Cowboy Bebop is A is A is
Speaker 2: like a low hanging fruit answer because it is really good.
Speaker 2: I'm a big fan of fully coolie For movies. I
Speaker 2: saw Ninja Scroll way too young an age I should
Speaker 2: not have seen Ninja scrolling Vampire enter D when I
Speaker 2: was the age that I was, And you're right, Jasper,
Speaker 2: I still am a pretentious fuck I thought that was
Speaker 2: really funny con but I saw it was way too young.
Speaker 2: It's a But I would say the one that I
Speaker 2: think just was worked the for movie wise, that has
Speaker 2: worked super well for me would be either Ghost in
Speaker 2: the Shell or Princess Monta. Okay, I've still not seen
Speaker 2: either of those. Actually, I see someone mention the good
Speaker 2: comments Spirited Away is a fantastic answer. I saw that
Speaker 2: movie for the first time when I was pretty young
Speaker 2: Turner Classic Movies, and this is actually when I first
Speaker 2: discovered Ben Mankowitz. It was it was when he first
Speaker 2: started working with Turner Classic Movies. He did a late
Speaker 2: night screen and a Princess Montai okay one time with
Speaker 2: one time dubbed and one time subbed back. Oh, and
Speaker 2: I stayed up late, wrapped under a blanket, with the
Speaker 2: blanket over the my my televisions. My parents said no,
Speaker 2: it was up and stayed up until like three am.
Speaker 2: W soone enamored by it. Yeah, so yeah, I mean
Speaker 2: it actually might be spirited watched again since that very
Speaker 2: formative screening, and it's one of those movies it's like,
Speaker 2: I'm almost afraid to rewatch it because, yeah, that nostalgia
Speaker 2: is a drug. Man.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I I completely get that. Those uh, those Ghibli
Speaker 3: films just kind of incredible. Yeah, And I've not seen
Speaker 3: all of them, but the ones I've seen.
Speaker 2: I'm almost at this point I'm savoring them because I've
Speaker 2: seen I've seen a handful of them, and I saw
Speaker 2: Princess Monta Okay when they re released on four K
Speaker 2: last year, and theatrically, and each one of them has
Speaker 2: just been delightful.
Speaker 3: I'm so ready for those four kiss of finally get announced. God,
Speaker 3: so many of those are gonna look just remarkable, unfortunately.
Speaker 2: And like my wife is really big into Totoro like
Speaker 2: that was that's kind of the one that she really
Speaker 2: gravitates to the hot topic. Gibli nice. Well he's fucking cute. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that sounded so dismissive, but it was so funny. All right,
Speaker 2: year number four and I got so aggressive, it's fucking cute.
Speaker 2: Lawrence of Arabia, Oh yeah, that I feel like I
Speaker 2: know a lot about and I've I've I read a
Speaker 2: lot of like film history books and things like that.
Speaker 2: It feels like a movie that I've seen, but I
Speaker 2: know I haven't. Like do you ever get that where
Speaker 2: there's like a movie or a filmmaker you've read a
Speaker 2: lot about, Yeah, and it feels like you've seen something.
Speaker 2: That's how Lawrence of Arabia feels to me.
Speaker 3: So what's really funny is I'm feeling the exact opposite
Speaker 3: way about Lawrence of Arabia right now. I know for
Speaker 3: a fact I've seen it at least twice. I hardly
Speaker 3: remember anything about it. I feel like it's one of
Speaker 3: those movies that just immediately dumps out of my mind
Speaker 3: the two times that I've seen it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I also just really like it's I don't
Speaker 2: know why I haven't seen it yet. Probably it might
Speaker 2: be the length, because I don't mind long movies. It's
Speaker 2: more so trying to find time for long movies. And
Speaker 2: I read a lot about Lawrence of Arabia when I
Speaker 2: of getting really into john Ford because I was just
Speaker 2: really I love the fact that David Lean said he studied, uh,
Speaker 2: the Searchers to figure out how to best shoot landscapes.
Speaker 2: I just so at this point it's, uh, it's been
Speaker 2: my quote of the day. I'm just waiting for that
Speaker 2: movie to find me hmm interesting. Yeah, I uh, I'm
Speaker 2: curious if that one will ever like stick with me.
Speaker 2: I need to try again. It's been a while for sure, Holton.
Speaker 2: I also want to know if it'll ever be gay
Speaker 2: enough for you? Please please report back, Colon, Yes, you know,
Speaker 2: find me on social media. I need to know your
Speaker 2: is Warren every day. I just need to check in.
Speaker 2: Is Lawrence Arabia gay enough for you? Today? Go get
Speaker 2: that rr L. Is Laurence of Arabia gayenaugh for me? Yet?
Speaker 2: Dot com. This reminds me were you ever a professional
Speaker 2: wrestling guy? Yeah? Multiple times. Yeah, there was a website
Speaker 2: that existed for a while long time that is uh
Speaker 2: is test Still Dead dot com and you can go
Speaker 2: to it and be yes and had a clock of
Speaker 2: how long he's been dead for. I don't know where
Speaker 2: the joke started, but it's always made me laugh. Cool.
Speaker 2: This comment is so funny in response that man was
Speaker 2: in them deserts doing dirty things. Oh jeez.
Speaker 3: All right, so this last one is kind of like
Speaker 3: a more recent infatuation that I don't know why I
Speaker 3: haven't put this one in the player yet, but I
Speaker 3: have loved, like literally been enthralled by everything that I've
Speaker 3: seen from Long Car Why and for some reason, I
Speaker 3: have not watched nineteen ninety seven's Happy Together yet, and
Speaker 3: I feel like from all the promo material it looks
Speaker 3: like one that I am going to worship afterwards. So
Speaker 3: I just I need to get around to it. But
Speaker 3: it's God, it's so wild how much the other ones
Speaker 3: have worked perfectly for me, So I know it's gonna
Speaker 3: be great. I just I gotta dedicate the time to it.
Speaker 2: Oh, it's really funny you mentioned that because my next
Speaker 2: one's in the Mood for Love.
Speaker 3: No way, Yes, so much of our's been our first one.
Speaker 3: We both picked the word seven in the title. Yeah
Speaker 3: you want car WI like this has been great.
Speaker 2: Like I, like many pretentious young film students, saw Chunking
Speaker 2: Express and pretty much built my life around it, and
Speaker 2: then I just never got around to his other films
Speaker 2: except for I apparently I've seen The Grand Master, and
Speaker 2: I don't remember when I watched that. Uh, But in
Speaker 2: the Mood for Love, it's very much like you said,
Speaker 2: I know it's a movie that I'm going to love.
Speaker 2: It's beautiful, and I just I just uh, I just
Speaker 2: need to pull that trigger. Yeah it has a criterion? Correct?
Speaker 3: Does I have a criterion? It's in that box set,
Speaker 3: it had its own standalone. I think it's got a
Speaker 3: four K now if I'm remembering right.
Speaker 2: Just another thing too, It's just like sometimes some of
Speaker 2: these films aren't easy to like. The reason I hadn't
Speaker 2: seen Possession for so long is because it was not
Speaker 2: easy to If you didn't get that original release of it,
Speaker 2: good fucking luck finding it or so. When I was
Speaker 2: talking to Austin about when we went to go see
Speaker 2: No other choice I had not I've not seen any
Speaker 2: other Park Chan Wook films except for Stoker because they
Speaker 2: were notoriously hard to find for a while for a while. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and then it's because they were so hard to find,
Speaker 2: I stopped looking. Mm hmm. Which the reason why up
Speaker 2: until like, I hadn't seen a lot of John Woo
Speaker 2: films because they weren't easy to find, and now they are.
Speaker 2: Now they're all getting releases and I don't have to
Speaker 2: deal with the unsavory bootleg websites to see some of them.
Speaker 2: But like, you know, when something is not easily available,
Speaker 2: why keep looking?
Speaker 3: Yeah, and Stan, yes, we absolutely are our Patreon we
Speaker 3: do a watch along as a group once a month
Speaker 3: and one of them we did Chunk King Express and
Speaker 3: discussed afterwards and stuff. Loved that movie, yeah, Ronnie says,
Speaker 3: Chunking Express, and I do it for me.
Speaker 2: Still haven't seen in the Mood for Love.
Speaker 3: In The Mood for Love is remarkably just well made, shot,
Speaker 3: beautifully poignant. Loved that movie so much. Gosh, these are
Speaker 3: these are good lists, solid lists.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And it's like and after talking about it, I
Speaker 2: don't feel any shame.
Speaker 3: I'm absolutely except for maybe the Bergmann stuff.
Speaker 2: I can I can wait on a few of those.
Speaker 2: But yeah, and I even had backup choices just in
Speaker 2: case we had the same one. I actually made a
Speaker 2: list of eleven. What are the other six? If you
Speaker 2: want to rattle mouth? Uh the graduate somebody else mentioned
Speaker 2: that in the chat earlier too after hours. Oh wow,
Speaker 2: I had that criterion still still shrink wrapped. Another of course,
Speaker 2: I see the last Waltz. Oh good movie. Yeah, come
Speaker 2: and see h Yeah, I understand putting that one off
Speaker 2: and then send theem a PARADISEO.
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, I can see that not being super like accessible,
Speaker 3: I guess, or approachable.
Speaker 2: Maybe it's the better way to say that. Plus I
Speaker 2: without knowing a whole lot about it, you know, I
Speaker 2: remember when it was recommended to me by someone. I
Speaker 2: was like, why would I see that? I've already seen
Speaker 2: Matt and A. That's yeah, touchet, they're both great. I
Speaker 2: know it's you know, it's not the same thing. I'm
Speaker 2: being a little coy about it, but not a pretentious
Speaker 2: fuck though. That's nice.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Michael, this has been amazing. Thanks for doing this.
Speaker 3: I had a whole hell of a lot of fun.
Speaker 2: I'm glad I'm glad and i's got to stir up
Speaker 2: some shit in your comments section.
Speaker 3: It happens every week, and so I'm grateful that you
Speaker 3: had an opportunity to do it. Yeah and yeah, I
Speaker 3: had a great time.
Speaker 2: And hope if we uh looking to come back, looking
Speaker 2: to come back whenever we can get me scheduled in. Uh,
Speaker 2: though I'm a little sad, I gotta say. Uh. So,
Speaker 2: back before you had officially announced Antenna, you had said
Speaker 2: it's like, oh, well there's a piece of news I
Speaker 2: want to tell you, but I want to wait until
Speaker 2: I can tell you why. You still haven't said anything.
Speaker 2: So I don't know if you were just because the.
Speaker 3: First time was going to be the week of that announcement.
Speaker 3: That makes sense that that because we had to I
Speaker 3: think we had to reschedule you twice.
Speaker 2: No only once. No, No, I rescheduled you. You rescheduled
Speaker 2: you once. Yeah, so it was twice. But so I
Speaker 2: thought you had something me specific that I was like
Speaker 2: excited for. No, just uh, just antenna.
Speaker 3: But the big thing was Brian, Uh only had one
Speaker 3: opportunity to come on the show, and so it was like,
Speaker 3: I gotta get Brian back on and I know that
Speaker 3: Michae will be okay, wait one week.
Speaker 2: So we did it. Yeah, it was like like I
Speaker 2: said before, Brian's a great deal. I don't know him
Speaker 2: super well, but back before I was a very unproven writer.
Speaker 2: Only thing I had written for was Taste of Cinema.
Speaker 2: If you remember that website, I vaguely do. I think
Speaker 2: it was mostly a list website, you like, oh, you know,
Speaker 2: best horror locations, and you just showed that. When Brian
Speaker 2: was doing Rupert Pumpkin, uh, he you know, would do
Speaker 2: his discovery lists every year, and I reached out to him,
Speaker 2: being nobody, I'd barely been doing the podcast and asked
Speaker 2: if I could post one and he said yes, and
Speaker 2: he'd let me do that for like three or four
Speaker 2: years pretty much pretty much until he stopped using doing
Speaker 2: the website when when Pierre Cinema yeahocked off. And then
Speaker 2: a funny another little side of Brian when he first
Speaker 2: started getting into four K I think he had a
Speaker 2: four K TV, he had no four K discs. He
Speaker 2: just reached out to like Facebook is like, does anyone
Speaker 2: have any four K digital codes? They don't want, so
Speaker 2: I gave them a four K digital code for hook.
Speaker 3: I don't know if he remembers this, but I do.
Speaker 3: It's a formidable moment for you. I'm sure he remembers
Speaker 3: it greatly. Yeah, this has been.
Speaker 2: Great, Brian's great, You're great, This is this is so
Speaker 2: much fun. Thanks for doing it, of course, and I'm
Speaker 2: always happy to come back on again. Well we will
Speaker 2: get you back.
Speaker 3: Everybody, Stay safe over this freezing ass cold weekend that
Speaker 3: many of us are going to have. If you're in California,
Speaker 3: this is one of those super jealousy moments of your
Speaker 3: weather not being deadly at the moment, although sometimes I'll
Speaker 3: take this over the fires.
Speaker 2: I guess.
Speaker 3: Anything else coming up that you haven't shouted out that
Speaker 3: you'd like to shout out?
Speaker 2: Um out with. The Season ten of the podcast is
Speaker 2: calming up. Don't have the official date yet, but I'm
Speaker 2: thinking second week of February. It's mostly I'm it's mostly
Speaker 2: when my editor and get it done. As long as
Speaker 2: I get two episodes a month, I'm happy. I'm not
Speaker 2: super strict with my deadlines because I don't believe in
Speaker 2: working people too hard, So I got that come in.
Speaker 2: We have our secret project. We're not really talking about
Speaker 2: what we are kind of talking about Yeah. So I'm
Speaker 2: trying to think if there's anything else. No, not really,
Speaker 2: Like I'm oh, I can I talk about the piece
Speaker 2: that I'm writing for please? Yeah, I teased it. You can.
Speaker 2: You can reveal as much as you want, all right.
Speaker 2: So I'm writing a piece for the Physical Media Advocate
Speaker 2: that is now not coming out until probably juneish, Yeah,
Speaker 2: to coincide with Jackass five. I'm writing a piece for
Speaker 2: the Physical Media Advocate about how Jackass has helped break
Speaker 2: down toxic masculinity within nineties and two thousands youths. And
Speaker 2: I even yeah, and I had an unexpected interview with
Speaker 2: Chris rab Aka rab himself, and he gave me like
Speaker 2: an hour and a half to almost two hours of
Speaker 2: his time just to shoot the ship and like we
Speaker 2: talked about the Orgin, like how he got involved because
Speaker 2: he was more part of the c ky stuff and
Speaker 2: merged in the Jackass that way. He gave me some
Speaker 2: behind the scenes information about how viv Labam worked and
Speaker 2: he was a great dude.
Speaker 3: I am so stoked that we're going to have an
Speaker 3: exclusive Jackass interview in the Physical Media Advocate. And unbeknownst
Speaker 3: to us that they were doing a fifth film.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he said he's not involved with it, but you know,
Speaker 2: he was more than happy to talk about his time
Speaker 2: with Jackass and God, I want to tell like a
Speaker 2: story from that interview, but don't want to spoil the magazine.
Speaker 3: Right, you got got to check it out, come back
Speaker 3: around June, and uh check out the issue when it
Speaker 3: comes out, And I'm sure we'll get Michael on some
Speaker 3: other stuff. He's already talked about a couple of other ideas.
Speaker 3: You've written two Is it only tours?
Speaker 2: That've been three too? But I've hitched like, yeah, it's two.
Speaker 2: I have that. I pitched you the Jackass piece and
Speaker 2: I pitched you a video store piece that I'm I
Speaker 2: need to meet with the guy that to discuss further.
Speaker 2: But yeah, so far I wrote. I want to say
Speaker 2: one of the more in depth pieces about the Longest
Speaker 2: Yard yet Reynolds film, because he's my obsession actor. I
Speaker 2: think at this point out like the I don't want
Speaker 2: to say I wrote the longest piece on the Longest
Speaker 2: Yard because I know that's not the case, but it's
Speaker 2: pretty in depth piece about the Longest Yard. I'm confident
Speaker 2: I have written the most about Frankenstein and me and
Speaker 2: then that wasn't for you. But then I also wrote
Speaker 2: from al Delvio with love my appreciation of Netflix Christmas Movies,
Speaker 2: which is also quite in depth about the history of
Speaker 2: all Mark Channel. Yeah.
