[00:00:03] Speaker A: So we got a staff meeting tonight. Welcome, listener. This is staff meeting episode. This is a little different than our usual episodes. [00:00:11] Speaker B: You called the staff meeting. [00:00:12] Speaker A: You called the staff meeting. I got Mickey down here, as per usual, my amazing co host and editor of podcasts. And, of course, we have the voice of the returned slide of horror, the amazing Molly. Thank you for joining us this evening. [00:00:27] Speaker C: Hello. [00:00:30] Speaker A: Now that's the voice. Yeah. Thank you for being here. [00:00:34] Speaker B: Thank you for giving us a sample of that. [00:00:36] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:00:40] Speaker C: Happy to be here. [00:00:42] Speaker A: So tonight's a big night. So something that Mickey and Molly do at their place is they do, like, a big movie night out in there. Like, what is it, youre courtyard or your. What is an old mansion? It depends, basically. Like an apartment building. [00:00:59] Speaker C: Yeah, it depends on the season. [00:01:00] Speaker B: Yeah. I mean, if the weather is right, we're going patio style, blowing up an inflatable giant screen and watching movies that. That are so. It's, like, so aggressively. [00:01:12] Speaker C: Like, it's good Halloween time, but it's. [00:01:13] Speaker B: Also super aggressive in the sense that it's like, we're watching this movie on this giant, multi foot, large blown open screen, and all of our neighbors are seeing the same movie we're watching, but in, like, reverse image, and they're like. [00:01:28] Speaker C: So watch the clockwork orange in reverse orange. It was a little awkward. [00:01:33] Speaker B: And then when the weather's bad, we bring it into the foyer, which is a really large space to entertain people, and we do it in the foyer, where there's a bar and there's, like, a whole. [00:01:42] Speaker C: It's pretty fun or sometimes, but we just bring it on upstairs, and we just hop on Big Blue, which is our couch, and watch on our 70. [00:01:51] Speaker B: Inch tv, throw on a little flick. [00:01:53] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:01:54] Speaker A: Well, tonight is a perfect weather night. It's a perfect summer night, and we need to, like, figure out what perfect horror summer film we're gonna watch with the fire crackling and the jiffy pop going and all that stuff. So we're gonna do. We just closed up the shop. We're doing a quick meeting to figure out and decide what movie we're gonna watch as a group outside on this perfect summer evening. Now, let me ask you this real quick. I did get some jars to catch lightning bugs, but do you guys call them lightning bugs or fireflies? [00:02:31] Speaker B: Lightning bugs. [00:02:31] Speaker C: Lightning bugs. [00:02:33] Speaker B: Lightning bugs. For a second, you were gonna say, you got jars to catch our farts in, and I was like, it's gonna be so fun. [00:02:41] Speaker C: We did that as a Christmas gift to one of our friends last year. [00:02:44] Speaker B: We gave them farts of each of our labeled family members and labeled them. [00:02:49] Speaker A: Did you really fart in a jar? [00:02:50] Speaker B: Actually, all of us farted in one day jar so that he could have. So that this. This particular person pranks us constantly in our lives. So this was our one big, like, prank back to him. So he opened up get jars of farts from our entire family. [00:03:05] Speaker A: And did you. [00:03:06] Speaker B: But she. Now you just catch fireflies with his son. [00:03:10] Speaker A: They all must die immediately. [00:03:12] Speaker B: They are not happy. It is like a. It is like a perverse. [00:03:15] Speaker A: Did he smell it? Oh, he's like, I gotta. I gotta smell with the family fart. Smell. [00:03:20] Speaker B: Like he's such a little, like, shit that he probably was like, I'm certain. And he said, oh, that's disgusting. And he probably went up, was like, I got it. I got it. I gotta say no. [00:03:29] Speaker A: He giggles. [00:03:30] Speaker C: He giggles. You got a giggle. He's a giggler. [00:03:32] Speaker B: Which, and I listener, if you're interested. [00:03:35] Speaker A: In a Mickey or a Molly fart in a jar, you can order that on our website. [00:03:40] Speaker B: I think this is gonna get really. I think Molly probably would actually be the one that people are like, yeah, I'll pay $500 that far. And we're like, people. Like, we're just completely ignored. Just crickets on us. Yeah, I'm gonna see. I'm gonna get jealous of the people wanting to buy Molly's farts. [00:03:58] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:03:58] Speaker B: But not because she's crushing, not because she's my wife. Jealous because I want them to want my farts more. [00:04:03] Speaker A: Yeah, we all know what you're talking about. Is it inhumane to put the lightning bugs or fireflies in the jar? Are we, like, I remember as a kid I used to do that and I used to smush their butts, not realizing I was killing them. [00:04:23] Speaker C: Ew. [00:04:24] Speaker A: Well, that's. Yeah, that's definitely a no. [00:04:25] Speaker B: No, you don't. Would you want your butt smushing like that? [00:04:29] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, speaking of farts of jars. [00:04:32] Speaker C: You want somebody to smush your butt and smear it on something? No. [00:04:36] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. [00:04:39] Speaker C: Yeah. I mean, you gotta let them go, but you gotta poke. That's why you gotta poke holes in the top. [00:04:45] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:04:45] Speaker C: Actually, now they have those, like, little nets and stuff that you can buy. [00:04:50] Speaker B: Yeah, there's, like, all sets, like, little. [00:04:52] Speaker C: Things that you can buy seem to. [00:04:53] Speaker B: Be more humane, but, I mean, you're. [00:04:55] Speaker C: Catching an animal, but it is like. [00:04:56] Speaker B: A catch and release kind of gig. [00:04:57] Speaker C: It's like kids trying to catch bugs. Yeah, it's kind of weird when you think about it. [00:05:02] Speaker B: It's super cute. [00:05:04] Speaker C: I mean, yeah. But also kind of weird. They are. I do love lightning bugs, how they decorate nature. [00:05:12] Speaker B: Yeah. I mean, they're there. I have a wonderful story of lightning bugs. It'll be quick. But I was driving through Quantico in the middle of the night. I had a friend of mine that was a photographer with me, and we just happened to pass a pond that had thousands of lightning bugs on it. Like they were lighting up the pond and the reflection of the pond was coming back upon them because of their lights. So it's creating all this, like reflective light off the pond. He stopped and took a, what they call a long exposure. So it's where you open up the aperture at night and you let it, you have to, like, it could be 15 seconds just exposing the light into the camera. And he has that print. And it's a beautiful print. [00:05:52] Speaker C: I don't know. I don't think I've ever seen it. [00:05:54] Speaker B: Oh, we got to know about it. [00:05:55] Speaker C: There's also that one 1 yd up the street from us that we were, we went for a walk and we all stopped because we were like, this is so beautiful. Yeah. [00:06:05] Speaker B: A summer night and a good movie with some lightning bugs. [00:06:08] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:06:09] Speaker C: Let me. Some lightning bugs. [00:06:10] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:06:11] Speaker C: But people do call them fireflies here. Some people do, yeah. Yeah. [00:06:15] Speaker B: Where we grew up as lightning bugs. [00:06:16] Speaker C: Not me. [00:06:19] Speaker A: I can't remember. I think we called them both. We're in the midwest. [00:06:22] Speaker C: So it's a little lightning bug. [00:06:23] Speaker A: Well, you, you were. It was lightning bug. [00:06:25] Speaker C: Well, yeah, but when I was. [00:06:26] Speaker A: Molly's from Kansas City. [00:06:28] Speaker C: When I was a kid, I lived in Arkansas, though. And for sure it's a lightning bug in Arkansas. [00:06:33] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:06:33] Speaker C: Yeah. Glad we worked that out. [00:06:37] Speaker A: This is a YouTube episode. You got to send me the photo. We'll put it on. [00:06:40] Speaker B: Yeah. Oh, I'd love to. And I'll also shout out to the photographer, Jeff Swinson. He works with the New York Times. Wonderful photographer. Go check out all of his stuff. He is absolutely. He has a beautiful way of showing the world. [00:06:54] Speaker C: And so is, so is the fart in the jar. [00:06:58] Speaker B: Yeah. And the fart recipe, it's the opposite. [00:07:01] Speaker A: Ends of the same beautiful spectrum. Now we are talking about so that we can pick out a horror movie that is just like, you know, the essence. You know, either this horror film takes place at summertime or it somehow invokes whatever summer vibes mean to you. [00:07:25] Speaker B: You might call it the fart in the jar of summer horror movies. It captures the essence. [00:07:37] Speaker A: It captures. Yes. It's like summer farted into a jar. And then we're gonna share that with everybody. [00:07:43] Speaker B: Exactly. [00:07:46] Speaker C: Sprinkled with some lightning bugs. [00:07:48] Speaker B: Oh, wow. [00:07:48] Speaker A: Sprinkled with some smooshed lightning bug bugs. [00:07:52] Speaker C: I don't want to smudge. [00:07:55] Speaker A: Now we gotta fill up a cooler with beers and sodas and stuff. What are we gonna have to drink this evening, Molly? [00:08:04] Speaker C: Ooh, I'm having a local spirit. Spirit. Get it? [00:08:10] Speaker B: I get it. [00:08:12] Speaker C: It's from Boyd and Blair. [00:08:14] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. Hear that? Hear that? [00:08:16] Speaker C: And this is a new one that just came out in June. It's a new flavor. They do, like, premixed cocktails. It's a new flavor. It's vodka with hibiscus and lime, and it's a little sour. I love sour beers in my favorite. So when I tried this earlier today, I was like, gotta have it. [00:08:34] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:08:34] Speaker C: It's not sweet like you would think it would be. [00:08:36] Speaker B: No, it's actually very, like. It's, like, sour and. [00:08:39] Speaker C: But it's red. It's beautiful. [00:08:41] Speaker B: Super refreshing. [00:08:42] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, it's delish. [00:08:46] Speaker A: That sounds great. Mickey, what do you got? [00:08:48] Speaker B: So for me, you know, I'm coming in representing Pittsburgh, you know, the city where I raise my children and family, and I'm coming in with General Braddock's. General Braddock. [00:09:03] Speaker A: Sounds serious. [00:09:03] Speaker B: Oh, it's serious, but it's. It's a. It's a IPA. It's an american IPA. Soft and balanced. It's only a 6.8%. So it's above your, you know, ales and your, you know, pills, but below your, like, imperials, you know, so freaking delicious. And shout out to, obviously, George Romero and the folks from Braddock, you know, love him so much where Martin was shot. This is Brew gentleman, a brewery just right in the heart of Braddock. Fantastic. [00:09:35] Speaker A: Speaking. Speaking of Martin, we have a YouTube episode out for that, so go check that out. Or it's also a previous podcast episode. Now, does this beer. Does this IPA have tons of lactose in it? [00:09:49] Speaker B: No. Lactose. Summertime, buddy. [00:09:53] Speaker A: I'm trying to avoid winter thing. [00:09:57] Speaker B: And I will say that. That I don't know about your experience with lactose, but lactose actually doesn't give me, necessarily gas as much as it just gives me the straight. [00:10:08] Speaker A: Okay, okay. [00:10:10] Speaker B: Predecessor of gas. The gas. Predecessor. I just bypass gas. [00:10:18] Speaker A: One of those. [00:10:20] Speaker B: There it is. One of those. Figured out how to use the sound board sound effects. This is, like, the worst. [00:10:36] Speaker C: Wait, can we just do that the whole time? [00:10:38] Speaker B: It's like, when. It's like, when. It's like, when a. It's like when a boy hits puberty and discovers his penis for the first time. It's like, this is what. You're gonna play with it too much. [00:10:46] Speaker C: Yeah, I know all about that. [00:10:48] Speaker B: Leave it alone. That's enough. [00:10:51] Speaker A: That's enough. [00:10:54] Speaker B: I'll allow you three more beat. Three more times. You can do that? [00:10:57] Speaker A: Okay. [00:10:59] Speaker B: It's gonna be like the perfect. [00:11:00] Speaker A: Okay. [00:11:01] Speaker C: And I'll give you one. So it's four total. [00:11:03] Speaker A: Oh, that's four. [00:11:04] Speaker B: You're welcome. [00:11:06] Speaker A: Speaking. Speaking of three plus one extra, let's get to the. Let's get to the movies. But before that, I'm having. I'm just drinking some in honor of our friend in Canada. I'm drinking Labatt blue. [00:11:18] Speaker B: Oh, that's sweet. [00:11:20] Speaker A: I love it. [00:11:20] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:11:22] Speaker A: Our friend in the north thinks it's ridiculous that I like it. I guess it's the equivalent of me being. Of, like, someone being obsessed with Budweiser. [00:11:31] Speaker C: But, you know, I think a lot of people, you might think it's ridiculous. [00:11:36] Speaker B: I think Molly finds it quite ridiculous. [00:11:41] Speaker A: You don't find Le bat Bleu to be an exotic drink from a foreign country that speaks French. [00:11:49] Speaker B: I love the idea. [00:11:51] Speaker C: It is a cultured drink. [00:11:53] Speaker B: No, I love the idea of, like, the low entry point beer of any area. Like, I love spotted cow. I love Lebat blue. I love Iron City. I love old Milwaukee. [00:12:09] Speaker A: Ryan Gold. [00:12:10] Speaker B: Rhine gold. Rhine gold. But whenever. Yeah. Olympia, like the beer of natty bow from national Bohemian from, like, the, you know, Baltimore area. I like having the, what might be called trash beer of their area because it makes me feel accustomed to the people. Really like, to be clear, we don't. [00:12:31] Speaker A: Consider it trash beer. [00:12:32] Speaker B: We don't consider trash beer. Heck, no. But I think that's because we're men of the people, Michelangelo. We are of the people. [00:12:39] Speaker C: With your brew gentleman, General Braddock. [00:12:44] Speaker A: Your beer's way too fancy to be considered. [00:12:47] Speaker C: It comes in a tall, slender black can. [00:12:51] Speaker A: Yeah, I know. [00:12:53] Speaker C: It's no slouch amongst the people. [00:12:56] Speaker A: Might as well be drinking out of a shoe. I don't know. [00:13:01] Speaker B: I don't know what I'm gonna eat. [00:13:02] Speaker A: I don't know. [00:13:04] Speaker B: You mean like champagne out of a. [00:13:07] Speaker A: Like a breast glass? Marie Antoinette. [00:13:12] Speaker C: Oh, actually, I almost came in with one of those, but, yeah, it wasn't big enough to hold all the drink I wanted to drink. [00:13:20] Speaker B: I need a larger breast. I needed a larger breast. [00:13:23] Speaker C: Yeah. I needed a big booty glass. Yeah. [00:13:27] Speaker A: So I did check out our episode. [00:13:31] Speaker C: I got a post childbirth booby glass. [00:13:34] Speaker B: Oh, okay. A reference. Good female perspective is good on this show. I would have never said that. A post I would have gotten away with. [00:13:43] Speaker A: Well, that works for the shoe as well. As I understand it, the feet sometimes get bigger. [00:13:48] Speaker C: What? [00:13:49] Speaker A: Some women, their feet, like, get bigger after pregnancy. [00:13:52] Speaker B: Ankles and feet. [00:13:55] Speaker A: I know some women have gone up. [00:13:58] Speaker C: A full shoe size. Pregnancy. That's during. [00:14:00] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:14:00] Speaker B: During pregnancy, you get the. Yeah. [00:14:02] Speaker C: And that was. It's usually, like your first. I feel like, for the ankles, for the cankles. [00:14:07] Speaker B: The cankles? [00:14:08] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:14:08] Speaker B: Yeah. I gotta be careful what I say. [00:14:13] Speaker A: So let's get to the movies. [00:14:15] Speaker B: Speaking of. [00:14:20] Speaker A: What'S. What's your first? Possibly. I don't know if this is going to be an order of your favorites to least favorite, but we all have three with some alts. The only rules, basically, is that a, we're not going to do any Friday the 13th films. Those are obvious. And hopefully you didn't, uh oh. Hopefully you didn't pick anything that we've already done. And I'll go through a list of all of the stuff that we've already covered in depth episodes of. But let's. Let's see what you got. Molly, what's your. What's your first pick? [00:14:52] Speaker C: I was gonna say, do you want me to name them all off or you just want the first one? [00:14:55] Speaker A: No, just the first one. We're gonna kind of go, like in a round. [00:14:59] Speaker C: I'm glad I get to go first because my first one is midsommar. [00:15:07] Speaker A: I've yet to see that, actually. And so that makes it exciting for me to see something I haven't seen. [00:15:14] Speaker B: Ari Aster is. He's on. He's blowing all nights on that one. [00:15:18] Speaker A: Blowing on July, midsummer. [00:15:20] Speaker C: What? [00:15:20] Speaker B: Blowing on all nines? I don't know what that means. [00:15:24] Speaker A: It blowing on all nines, baby. All the other shit you say. [00:15:37] Speaker C: Here in a new hashtag. Hashtag? [00:15:41] Speaker A: Does that mean you can take all nine inches? [00:15:44] Speaker B: I think that's what it means. [00:15:49] Speaker A: So, Molly, why midsummer? And I'd love to know if you can remember your experience watching it for the first time. [00:15:58] Speaker C: Yeah. So, Mickey. Well, why? Because it's a perfect summer film. Takes place in the summer here, actually. Let me. For those who have not seen it, I'll read you the logline. A couple travels to northern Europe to visit a rural hometown's fabled Swedish Midsummer festival. What begins as an idyllic retreat quickly devolves into an increasingly violent and bizarre competition at the hands of a pagan cult. [00:16:26] Speaker B: Yeah, that's pretty spot on. [00:16:28] Speaker C: You're welcome. Yeah. So first time I watched it was at home by myself because Mickey had seen it. It had been on our list, but Mickey had seen it, and he was away. So I decided to watch it. I don't. I actually, I don't. I don't know. Watching it by myself, I think I was just like, what? You know, it's just like. And then just recently, a couple weeks ago, I got Mickey and I tickets to go see Ariaster's director's cut. [00:17:06] Speaker B: In IMax. [00:17:07] Speaker C: Yeah, it's like, in IMax. Yeah. And it was like, oh, wow. But I think it's like 18 minutes longer. [00:17:13] Speaker B: Yeah, 23. [00:17:15] Speaker C: 23. [00:17:15] Speaker B: 23 minutes longer. [00:17:16] Speaker C: Yeah, three minutes longer. So there were definitely some scenes in there that are not in the normal. In theatrical release. Yeah. In the theatrical release. [00:17:27] Speaker A: Which do you prefer? [00:17:29] Speaker C: I mean, I prefer a director's cut only because it's how it's intended to be right before it's been cut down by studios. But did it make it better? I don't think it made it a better film. Cause it's already a good film. But it definitely was different. And it also gave a little insight into the characters that I was like, so nice to see this happen before this happened. And there's also a scene that was very funny. That was cut completely. I was like, Mickey and I kept looking at each other. [00:18:05] Speaker B: I was like, this is funny. Like, comedic. [00:18:07] Speaker C: This is new. I was like, what? This is so great. [00:18:10] Speaker B: It was a great moment of levity. [00:18:11] Speaker C: It was just a moment of levity that you're not expecting, but is just. It's just. [00:18:16] Speaker B: I'd say if I can weigh in. I know this is your pick. I think. Go see the director's cut. I actually think if you can. [00:18:22] Speaker C: I don't know if you enriches the. [00:18:25] Speaker B: Storyline of characters that they underwrite in the theatrical release. And I think that. That they add a sense of humor that's not in the theatrical release. It also reminds you that Ari Aster is. [00:18:38] Speaker A: He's. [00:18:39] Speaker B: He's not being just doom and gloom. He's. He's also having fun. [00:18:44] Speaker C: And it also adds an element of understanding to the main characters too, for sure. [00:18:50] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. [00:18:51] Speaker C: Because you see something develop and then you're like, oh, this is. I can't believe that happened right before this. So. [00:18:56] Speaker B: So can I. Can I ask you. Well, okay, go ahead. [00:19:00] Speaker A: No, no, you go ahead. [00:19:01] Speaker B: I was gonna say, um. You said it was, like the perfect summer film. [00:19:04] Speaker C: Oh. [00:19:04] Speaker B: For those who haven't seen it. What do you mean? The perfect summer kind of film without spoiling it. [00:19:09] Speaker C: I was gonna say, I don't know if it's a perfect summer film because it is disturbing, but summer horror. Yeah, it's a summer horror, but it's not a slasher. I don't love a slasher. Gory film. It has human elements. I do like a horror film that is light and bright. And it is very much aesthetically light and bright. Everything takes place in the daylight. So it does make you feel, especially if you're watching it in summer and you're seeing them. Everybody's outside, there's flowers. It's beautiful. [00:19:47] Speaker B: Bright daylight. [00:19:48] Speaker C: It's almost white. It's almost over exposed. It's like right on the line of overexposure for a lot of things, but I just think it's done really well. And it just gives you that sense of darkness while watching it all in. [00:20:01] Speaker B: The light, that juxtaposition. Yeah, for sure. [00:20:06] Speaker A: And now if we end up going with that, which version would we be watching? I kind of feel like if you're introducing this, like, I kind of feel like if you're introducing a film to someone, usually the theatrical release is the way to go just because it's like, I mean, I always kind of feel like director's cuts are more of a, like, if you love this, it's good to see more of it, right? [00:20:33] Speaker C: Yeah. But I think on this one, I don't. I think that if you saw the director's cut, I mean, I don't know if you even can see the director's cut. They just released it in IMAX and I don't know the. [00:20:51] Speaker A: We were going to details on it, exclusive. [00:20:53] Speaker C: Oh, sure, sure. Sorry. I mean, I would just watch the director's cut. Watch it as it's intended to be. [00:20:59] Speaker B: I like that. [00:20:59] Speaker A: Okay. Okay. Okay. I would trust your guys's opinion on a matter. Now, Mickey. [00:21:07] Speaker B: Yes? [00:21:08] Speaker A: What do you got? What do you got for us? What's your pitch here? [00:21:11] Speaker B: Well, I'm gonna. I'm gonna come out with, with. With probably, like, what I think is probably the most obvious. Not obvious, but just like, the most, like. Okay. Of course, you know that movie's picked, but I want to ask you. I'm gonna give you. You can get. We're gonna be quick, but you get three questions to ask me and see if you can guess this film. [00:21:30] Speaker A: Okay. Is it jaws? [00:21:34] Speaker B: You fucking suck. [00:21:35] Speaker A: Are you kidding me? [00:21:37] Speaker B: Are you kidding me? [00:21:38] Speaker A: I mean, it's the more obvious. It's the summer horror film. [00:21:42] Speaker C: If it's Google's greatest summer horror. [00:21:44] Speaker A: Summer horror horror film. [00:21:45] Speaker C: Jaws, that's number one on every list. [00:21:47] Speaker B: I love that. Nadia, your question wasn't even like, give me a hint. Your question was it's jaws. Is it jaws? I'm like, yeah, it's jaws. [00:21:54] Speaker A: It's absolutely Jaws, the greatest creature feature. [00:21:58] Speaker B: Outside of maybe Godzilla or King Kong. And I do love, you know, the gill man. I love, you know, the wolf man. I love them too. But. But Jaws is the movie that made people scared to go into the water. It's a massive summer blockbuster. It's, it's. It goes beyond being a horror film for a lot of people. Some people don't even see it as a horror film. They see it as a great film, period. It's one of those like, you sometimes get movies that transcend genre. [00:22:23] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, it's hot. It's hybrid for sure. [00:22:25] Speaker B: Yeah. And I just love it so much. It's our little local theater. Sometimes we'll put it on and we've not gone and seen it there yet, but I'm so desperate to go see it there so my kids can see jaws in an actual movie theater. I've never seen it in theater ever. [00:22:40] Speaker A: Me too. I've never seen it in a movie theater. [00:22:42] Speaker B: But I love the characters. I love, you know, Richard Dreyfus, you know, just everybody. And it's fantastic. Yeah, it just screams summer to me. To me, that is a movie that just feels like summer, 4 July, the. [00:23:00] Speaker A: Beach, like, yeah, there's. What can you say about it that hasn't been said? It's probably the greatest summer horror of all time. You know what I mean? It's definitely in the discussion. It's crazy good. [00:23:14] Speaker B: Spielberg, look, the thing is, there's so much content out there. I'm not going to like, repeat all the things you guys already know. If you're listening to this podcast, you probably have listened to Jaws podcasts. But Spielberg, the making of the film, you know, obviously the. How they overcame hurdles of the issues with the actual shark robot. I mean, yeah, the film is near perfect against all the odds that were against it. And there's like, just even go on, like, there are very few films that you can just like hum a bit of the soundtrack or a bit of the score and people just automatically get it, but you can just be like. And you automatically know, it's like, that's Jaws. It's. It's a wonderful summer horror film. I don't think we need to labor on this conversation. I just love it. [00:24:04] Speaker A: I've been scared in the batheous because of that. [00:24:08] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, it's fantastic. The music scares me when I hear the music. [00:24:15] Speaker A: The ocean and the sea, for me, I can never. I can never just enjoy the water, even in a lake. I am worried, and you can attest to this. We were at a lake last summer. I cannot enjoy swimming in a body of water because of John. The fear of something getting me. And, yeah, Jaws is the origin. [00:24:36] Speaker C: I also don't need jaws for that. I'm scared of that already. [00:24:40] Speaker B: You were scared prior to Jaws. But even, like, we were just. Molly and I were gonna shoot a short film this weekend, and we were using jaws as a reference for one of the shots we wanted to use. So it's like. It also is, like, stood the test of time as far as just being a great, well made film. Well, you know when the shark first is spotted on the. In the ocean, and it. The little boy almost gets attacked. [00:25:02] Speaker A: Oh, Billy. [00:25:03] Speaker B: And all. [00:25:04] Speaker A: Wait a second. [00:25:04] Speaker B: No, no, no, it's not Billy. [00:25:05] Speaker A: Where Billy gets killed. [00:25:06] Speaker B: No, earlier on, it's like it attacks the first girl, and the little boy comes running out, and the guy stands up and goes, there's a shark in the water. And you get the shot of Royce. Of Royce. I can't ever. [00:25:20] Speaker A: Roy Schneider. [00:25:20] Speaker B: Roy Schneider. Schneider, yeah. But you get the shot of him, and it's that Dolly Zoom where it goes to his face, and he, like, perks up and the background, like, zoom in as. Yeah, the background becomes wider while he becomes tighter. And it's such a beautiful shot. They use it all the time. It's called Dolly Zoom. [00:25:36] Speaker A: I'm pretty sure that's when Billy dies. No, the girl gets killed at the beginning. Of course. We'll do some spoilers. This movie came out, what, 75? [00:25:47] Speaker B: Okay, okay. [00:25:48] Speaker A: Yeah, some people die. Some people die. Anyways, I think the scene you're talking about is when the kid gets killed. [00:25:54] Speaker C: Shark. [00:25:54] Speaker A: And, like, the one that does it, is it not? [00:25:58] Speaker B: It might be. [00:25:59] Speaker A: I know, I know. The scene you're talking about, by the way. Yeah, it just talking about. [00:26:03] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It might be when Billy died anyway, but that we were just talking about the other day. It. It's that that film has stood the test of time, but also not just for the fact that it's a great horror film, a creature feature, but it's like, God, it's a beautiful, well shot film with amazing cinematography. Spielberg is on his a game there, which, honestly, when is he not on his a game? It's just a really great, really great film. [00:26:30] Speaker A: Yeah. And you like VHs, beta, laserdisc, the blu ray DVD, you know, it's endless. It's awesome. The only. If we don't pick Jaws tonight, the only reason why we wouldn't pick it is because we've probably all seen it. [00:26:47] Speaker B: It's been so done, you know? And that's a good. [00:26:49] Speaker A: It's in a crowded. That's a good. It's a crowd, please. [00:26:52] Speaker B: I'll also say, I recommend this to people. Okay. This is a big recommendation. First, like, right after. What is it? When does summer start? After Memorial Day. Is that right? [00:27:03] Speaker C: June 21. [00:27:04] Speaker B: So on June 21, the first movie that you're gonna do, if you're gonna do an outdoor watch, if you have a pool, or even if you just take an inflatable pool. Like one of those little baby pools. [00:27:13] Speaker A: Yes. [00:27:14] Speaker B: Fill it up, go put it on outside, sit in the water and watch that movie. That's how you start. [00:27:20] Speaker A: There are places where you can screen it, like, at a lake or something, and, like, you can be in the water and watch the movie. [00:27:27] Speaker B: It should be so, so fucking terrifying. Oh, I'm in the water. I cannot imagine how amazing that would be. I would love that. [00:27:37] Speaker A: I don't know if I could do that. [00:27:38] Speaker B: I would love it. [00:27:39] Speaker A: Even in a lake, I'd be so. [00:27:40] Speaker C: Scared to be a nice. [00:27:42] Speaker A: You get all pruney. [00:27:43] Speaker B: Yeah, it's shrinkage. You get shrinkage. [00:27:49] Speaker A: A little seinfeld. Okay. I think that's a great. That's a great pick. Let's. [00:27:56] Speaker B: Let's. Moving past jaws. Do you have any more questions, or can we go into your first? [00:28:01] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. I was ready to move on. Like, speaking of creature features, I. So, man, it was tough. I just. To give you context. [00:28:09] Speaker B: Okay. [00:28:09] Speaker A: Right. We have about 20 films that I'll mention later that we've talked in depth about that would qualify for this. Then I have a list of 18 other picks on top of my three picks, plus one alternative. So it's just trying to narrow it down was like, oh, my God. The anxiety. [00:28:31] Speaker B: This is why it's a staff meeting and not a coffee break, everybody. He's like, I made a staff meeting. I'm like, no, here's why. It's like you. You went. You go against your own rules. You're like, hey, guys, let's do three picks. Couple alternates, you know? [00:28:46] Speaker C: Now I'm out of my drink already. [00:28:48] Speaker A: I'm not gonna talk about the other side. I'm just. [00:28:50] Speaker B: We'll get there somehow. We're gonna be trying to shut this thing off. He's screaming, everyone at us. It's like. And then this and this. And this is even a summer movie, but it's perfect for summer because of this. [00:29:00] Speaker C: Let's hear it. [00:29:01] Speaker A: So. So this is. See if you can guess mine, Mickey. So it's a creature feature. [00:29:10] Speaker B: Summer creature feature. [00:29:11] Speaker A: That's. It's a summer creature feature. It has a connection, and it has a connection to the Friday the 13th films. [00:29:20] Speaker B: That's a summer creature feature. [00:29:21] Speaker A: Can you guess what it is? [00:29:22] Speaker B: Friday 13th films. [00:29:27] Speaker A: This is definitely, like, the epitome. It's almost an homage to creature features and b movies and drive in films, which is, like, go hand in hand with summer. I can give you some more. [00:29:39] Speaker B: No, that is, um. It wasn't made in the eighties. [00:29:45] Speaker C: It. [00:29:46] Speaker A: It's the first thing in a new. In the decade after the eighties. So it's like, probably shot. Probably shot in 89. You know what I mean? It's like the first. 1990. It's 1990 is the release of this. [00:30:03] Speaker B: Film to the creature feature. [00:30:06] Speaker A: And it's got a connection to Friday the 13th. [00:30:11] Speaker C: Come on, Mickey. [00:30:12] Speaker B: It's got sequels. [00:30:13] Speaker C: Come on. [00:30:14] Speaker A: Like, they're all, Mickey, it's really just the first one. [00:30:19] Speaker B: Six degrees of Kevin Bacon. [00:30:23] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:30:23] Speaker B: Talking trimmers. [00:30:24] Speaker A: Kevin bacon's in it. [00:30:25] Speaker B: Talking trimmers. Yeah, baby. [00:30:28] Speaker C: I love trimmers. [00:30:30] Speaker B: I love Reba. [00:30:31] Speaker A: Reba's great. [00:30:31] Speaker B: We watch trimmers not long ago. Reba. So good. [00:30:35] Speaker A: You guys should go as characters from the film, obviously. Molly, you'd be a great Reba. [00:30:40] Speaker B: Oh, I'll grow up my mustache and go as the guy from family tides. What's his name? Reba's husband. [00:30:46] Speaker A: He's great, man. What else can you guess, realistically? Guess how many sequels tremors has. [00:30:53] Speaker C: 612. [00:30:55] Speaker A: Okay, so you knew Mickey, you know. [00:30:57] Speaker B: Well, yeah, I've seen. [00:30:59] Speaker A: Did you just guess, or did you know? [00:31:00] Speaker B: I'm pretty sure I knew. I mean, I was pulling six out, but it was, like, six from an educated, like, appreciation. [00:31:06] Speaker A: Seven. Seven feature films plus one season of a Sci-Fi series television series. [00:31:15] Speaker B: The original trimmers is awesome. [00:31:18] Speaker A: It is endlessly entertaining. It is pitch perfect. It's. It's. It's. It's so well written. It's so well shot. The special effects are made. Like, I can't wax poetic enough about it. And, like, it definitely. Like, I mean, you're out in the desert. Desert. The sun's beating down on you. You got those similar. [00:31:40] Speaker C: Actually, I was gonna say all three of these are all, like, light, bright. [00:31:44] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:31:45] Speaker C: Take place in the daylight. Yeah. [00:31:47] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:31:47] Speaker A: Very far as far as visually. Visually, vibe wise, it's definitely. It matches up with jaws as far as, like. [00:31:53] Speaker B: No, it does not match up with Mister scary creepy. [00:31:55] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, it's definitely. You don't feel disturbed watching this movie? Although as a kid, this movie scared the shit out of me. Now I watch it and it's like, it's thrilling, but like. Yeah, it's definitely the camaraderie between. That's right. I said that one camaraderie. [00:32:16] Speaker B: Kevin Bacon, who's the other actor? I always want to say, fuck. It's like, it's like, it's like the Czech Cola of Chris Christofferson, you know? It's like the generic cola version. [00:32:26] Speaker A: How dare you. [00:32:29] Speaker C: Is that the brand of it? [00:32:30] Speaker B: No, I don't know. Just like a generic brand. Yeah, like something. [00:32:33] Speaker A: Fred Ward. [00:32:34] Speaker B: Fred. [00:32:35] Speaker A: Fred Ward. [00:32:35] Speaker B: Who is fantastic also. Fred. [00:32:37] Speaker A: No, he's amazing in it. [00:32:38] Speaker B: And no offense to that either, because I would love to be the generic version of Chris Christopherson. I accident that as a high praise. [00:32:45] Speaker A: Also, we got some big trouble china crossover with Victor Wong. [00:32:51] Speaker B: Yep. [00:32:51] Speaker A: Victor Wong in it. [00:32:53] Speaker B: I love the 13 tie, though. [00:32:56] Speaker A: You said Kevin bacon. [00:32:58] Speaker B: Oh, okay. Probably more. [00:33:02] Speaker A: Probably more than that, but Kevin Bacon for sure. [00:33:04] Speaker B: Obviously. [00:33:05] Speaker A: Yeah. This was a massive hit on home video. [00:33:09] Speaker B: Oh, absolutely. I watched it so much, this kid. [00:33:11] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. It was the, it was the highest rented film of 1990. It did not do well in the theaters, but it crushed it on television, at video stores, I believe it. And this is a baby you can pick up on vhs, beta, laserdisc, and if you want something current, Arrow Video has a, has a special release on Blu ray as of 2020. So that's, that's my, that's my first pitch. [00:33:38] Speaker B: I want to, just want to add one thing to, to that pic as a kid watching trimmers. So you ever. You play, like, lava on the ground where there's, like, lava. Yeah. [00:33:49] Speaker A: Without ever being told. It's a, it's a crazy phenomenon. Without ever being told how to play the game. [00:33:54] Speaker B: Every kid comes up with, well, when I was like, in 4th, 3rd or fourth grade, I don't know, somewhere in there, we played the game, but we played trimmers, so we did the same. That, that's how great that film was. It was like we would stop playing lava. [00:34:09] Speaker C: I did not. [00:34:10] Speaker B: It was like we'd play trimmers, like their trimmers on the ground. So we'd like, have to, like, quickly, like scurry quick, get on there. Make no noise. It's like, it's, it. [00:34:19] Speaker A: The vibrations, bro. [00:34:21] Speaker B: The vibrations, bro. I love. [00:34:23] Speaker A: That's a great. [00:34:24] Speaker C: Yep. [00:34:25] Speaker A: Thank you. Molly, what's your. What's your second pitch here? [00:34:30] Speaker C: So the second one I have on my list is us, which I think. I think I've said before for something. [00:34:34] Speaker A: Else, but that's a great one list I have. That's another one I haven't seen. [00:34:39] Speaker C: What. Well, you have to watch. [00:34:40] Speaker B: I know. [00:34:41] Speaker C: Well, I'll tell you, you have to watch it twice. And I'm not a big watch it twice person, but I just think that you watch it the first time and you're. [00:34:52] Speaker B: You get the first watch. [00:34:54] Speaker C: And again, it's not a creature feature, it's not a slasher. I very much like a. The humans are the people are the bad guys, I guess. Very psychological. And at the end, once you find out, if you go back for a second watch, you watch it with a whole new perspective. [00:35:17] Speaker A: I love a film like that. [00:35:18] Speaker C: Kind of incredible. [00:35:20] Speaker B: It's as fun watching it, knowing the information as it is. Watching it and not knowing the information. [00:35:26] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:35:26] Speaker B: In some ways, even more fun, you know, because then you're like, oh, my God, that's so brilliant. There's so many smart things layered throughout and. Yeah, fuck. Great pick. And also I shout out to Lost Boys. The opening scene of us is shot in that Santa Cruz Pier where lost Boys is shot. [00:35:43] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:35:43] Speaker B: And even in the opening shot, they reference lost Boys in it. [00:35:46] Speaker A: They're like, that's. [00:35:47] Speaker B: It's amazing. [00:35:48] Speaker A: On my list of episodes, it's a YouTube episode, it's a podcast episode. I'm going to go through all these. But, yeah, the Lost Boys is one of. That's a perfect summer pick. But we're nothing, right? Only because we've talked about it already. [00:36:02] Speaker B: Getting a shout out because of us. They share so much DNA in that opening sequence of us because even when they walk on the pier for the first time, they mentioned they're shooting a film here about vampires. And it's like, oh, is it set. [00:36:14] Speaker A: In that time period? [00:36:15] Speaker B: That first. That first scene is. [00:36:17] Speaker A: It's really set. [00:36:19] Speaker B: I know they're shooting Lost Boys. It's set. The month of shooting lost. [00:36:24] Speaker C: I didn't know this either. [00:36:25] Speaker B: Yeah, no, no. It's. It's. It's a. It's a very subtle Easter egg. And like, the first 15 seconds they mention it, but then the rest of the scene plays out in that pier. So for those who got it, you're like, oh, my God, she's on the pier while they're shooting Lost Boys. This is incredible. It's just a fun Jordan Peele style of thing to throw in that that doesn't, it's not a plot thing. It's just like here's a fun little thing that we're gonna add to the essence of this film because the period. [00:36:50] Speaker A: Times out, it's also not now. [00:36:52] Speaker C: It's not a light and bright. [00:36:54] Speaker B: No, no. But totally summer. Cause they're on their summer vacation. [00:36:58] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:37:00] Speaker A: So that's the tie. And it's definitely set in the summer. [00:37:03] Speaker C: And they're going on vacation. [00:37:04] Speaker B: That's the big thing is that they're taking their kids to their summer getaway. [00:37:07] Speaker A: That's great. But man, it's gonna, this is gonna be a tough, this is gonna be tough decision tonight. Because it's like the lure of seeing a film I haven't seen, you know? Cause mal, you've seen, you've seen everything then so far we've mentioned. [00:37:21] Speaker B: Right. [00:37:22] Speaker C: Uh, yeah. [00:37:24] Speaker B: Jaws. [00:37:25] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:37:26] Speaker A: Tremors. [00:37:27] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. You know, gifts, obviously. [00:37:28] Speaker A: Your picks. [00:37:29] Speaker C: Yeah. I haven't seen. [00:37:33] Speaker A: This. I heard this. [00:37:34] Speaker C: I've only heard they're great. [00:37:37] Speaker A: Mickey, what's your number two? [00:37:39] Speaker B: My number two is a film that I saw for the first time with Molly on a rental. It's called it follows. [00:37:45] Speaker C: Oh yeah. Yeah. [00:37:46] Speaker A: Oh, that was one of my all picks. [00:37:48] Speaker C: Ah. [00:37:49] Speaker B: I have fun. That movie is, is fucking awesome. And done so well on a low budget first time film director. I mean, it is. It's badass. You know, a lot of people refer. [00:38:00] Speaker A: To it as a technical masterpiece. [00:38:01] Speaker B: Yeah. It really is. A lot of people refer to it as the STD horror film. I don't know that. [00:38:06] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:38:06] Speaker B: That's kind of a lame. [00:38:07] Speaker A: It makes sense. It makes sense. [00:38:10] Speaker B: Just just it's an analogy for an STD because you pass it through. You pass the like in the same way in the ring. They pass it without spoiling. [00:38:18] Speaker C: 0000. Yes. Yes. Yes. Okay. Got it. [00:38:21] Speaker B: Yeah. Molly has not seen it in a bit. [00:38:24] Speaker A: It's an interesting take on the whole horror trope of like keeping your virginity and not getting killed by the killer. Yeah. [00:38:32] Speaker C: And I also tend to forget movies after I watch it. [00:38:35] Speaker B: I love the final girl. It's one of my favorite final girls of the last decade, you know, coming out. [00:38:39] Speaker A: She's amazing. [00:38:40] Speaker B: What is she? [00:38:41] Speaker A: She was in the guest. [00:38:42] Speaker B: The guest. [00:38:42] Speaker A: She was. She's brilliant. [00:38:45] Speaker B: She's great. And the director writer. [00:38:47] Speaker A: You know her name? [00:38:48] Speaker B: I don't, I don't have it in front of me. I actually have it. I do have it in front of me. Sorry. I was. I was moving on to the director. That's Maka Monroe. [00:38:57] Speaker A: Yes. Maka Monroe. She's amazing. [00:39:00] Speaker B: I love her. And the guests, too. I think the guest is a great film. [00:39:02] Speaker A: It follows a modern masterpiece, and it's. [00:39:05] Speaker B: A great summer film about, like, middle America. I think it fits like that, kind of, you know, like essence, summertime, out of school, a lot of lazy time on your hand, and this is kind of what's happening in their town. I don't want to spoil any of it, but it's. It's. Go watch it. It's. It's been the best horror film of. Of the last, like, 1015 years. One of the best, I should say. [00:39:29] Speaker A: One of the best. [00:39:29] Speaker B: I consider us to be in there, too. Yeah. [00:39:32] Speaker C: Okay. [00:39:33] Speaker B: Oh, well, Midsummer, obviously, as well. It's, you know, Midsummer, Midsommar, whatever you want to call. [00:39:37] Speaker C: Yeah, I don't know. [00:39:38] Speaker B: Well, they go by boat, if Midsommar. For the more, you know, I put. [00:39:43] Speaker C: My pinky up when I say it. [00:39:45] Speaker B: Midsommar. [00:39:46] Speaker A: So my second pick. Okay, I got. I got four here. So I'm just going random. [00:39:53] Speaker C: Oh, my God. Close your eyes and point your finger. [00:39:57] Speaker A: I did. So. [00:39:59] Speaker B: So. [00:40:02] Speaker A: See if you can guess what it is. [00:40:04] Speaker B: Okay. Is it Stephen Kingdom we've covered? [00:40:08] Speaker A: It is Stephen King. It is Stephen King. Okay, but can you guess which Stephen King it is? It's a sequel of a movie we've covered. [00:40:17] Speaker C: Can you guess it, Mickey? Can you guess it? [00:40:19] Speaker B: Movie we've covered. [00:40:20] Speaker C: Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding. [00:40:24] Speaker A: Sequel from 1987 of a movie. [00:40:28] Speaker B: Oh, creep show two. No, no, no. Yeah. [00:40:31] Speaker A: Creep show two. Creep show two. Directed by the cinematographer of the original, Michael, Michael Gornick, written by George A. Romero, based on Stephen King, some Stephen King stories. And for a little plus here we got Tom Savini playing the creep Pittsburgh. [00:40:51] Speaker B: Yep. Shout out to General Braddock. [00:40:54] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah. [00:40:55] Speaker C: There you go, Boyd and blairs. [00:40:57] Speaker B: There you go. We got the blood Pittsburgh. Things happening here. I like this. [00:41:00] Speaker C: Your pirates. [00:41:01] Speaker A: We got a creep show episode out there from our King Tyrion collection section of the video store. Now, creepshow two, for those of you who don't know, is an anthology horror feature, and it's got three segments in it, but really, the segment I'm focusing on for the purposes of what we're talking about is the raft. Do you remember the raft? It's the teens go out. They're on the raft in the lake. [00:41:28] Speaker B: Oh. It's like an oily kind of oil. [00:41:31] Speaker A: Slick thing that's like, eat. Like. [00:41:33] Speaker B: I do remember that. [00:41:34] Speaker A: Eats people so again, it's another, like. [00:41:39] Speaker B: Basically very chummy feature. [00:41:41] Speaker A: Monster in the water. It's gonna get you. Now, creep show two is a major step down from creep show one, but it's still. It's a b movie. [00:41:54] Speaker B: I love it. [00:41:54] Speaker A: That glorify. It's glorified in all of the wonderful b movie things that we love. The other segments are good. [00:42:03] Speaker B: I love that you said creepshow, too, because it'll make my third one also kind of falls in the same vein. [00:42:11] Speaker A: Now, mind you, not mine. This is from 1987. And I will say these stories do not age well. They're sexist and racists. [00:42:21] Speaker B: And, like, this is why I'm so glad that you say that. [00:42:24] Speaker C: This is probably why they're not my picks. [00:42:27] Speaker B: This goes right in line with my third. [00:42:29] Speaker A: I acquiesce to you guys. Molly, what would be your final pitch? [00:42:34] Speaker C: All right. [00:42:35] Speaker A: For what we're watching tonight, my third. [00:42:38] Speaker C: One, which I'm gonna backtrack real quick and just say that Midsommar and us are both 2019 films, which I didn't know that until I looked it up and I was like, oh, dang, that. [00:42:47] Speaker B: Was a big year for you then. [00:42:48] Speaker C: That was a big year for me, except I didn't watch Midsommar in 2019. I did watch us in 2019. Okay. Third pick is one of my faves, and I haven't watched it enough. I feel like I need to watch it more. Love that. Tucker and Dale versus evil. [00:43:04] Speaker B: Of course. Of course. [00:43:06] Speaker A: Yes. [00:43:07] Speaker B: Love that. [00:43:07] Speaker C: Of course. [00:43:08] Speaker A: I love that. That movie. [00:43:09] Speaker B: Love that pic. [00:43:10] Speaker C: Yeah, I. Yeah, I do love it. I love it because. And it is a little bit more gory. It is not a creature feature, but it's a little more gory. And again, the jokes, but played for jokes. And that's. Yeah, that's what I love about it is that you're like, oh, shit. And then you're like, what are you just laughing about? It's so good. It's so good. Alan Tudyk is always good. And it's like he and the other guy, I can't remember his name, but they're so perfect. [00:43:44] Speaker A: I cry with laughter watching. I just watched it the other day, so I might not want to, but that's a crowd pleaser right there. [00:43:54] Speaker C: I love it. [00:43:56] Speaker A: Oh, my. Just. Oh, God, it's so. It's so subversive and satirical. Tyler Lavigne. Oh, what a masterpiece. [00:44:03] Speaker C: What is? Tyler Levine. [00:44:04] Speaker B: Labine. [00:44:04] Speaker C: Labine. Got it. [00:44:06] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:44:07] Speaker C: Tyler Levine. [00:44:08] Speaker A: Everybody is good in that. [00:44:09] Speaker B: Labine. His last name is. [00:44:10] Speaker C: Yeah, everybody's great. [00:44:11] Speaker A: Yeah, the college kids are great. Mm hmm. [00:44:14] Speaker B: Beta omega. [00:44:16] Speaker A: For those of you who haven't seen it, that's. [00:44:18] Speaker C: You have to. [00:44:18] Speaker A: 2016. [00:44:20] Speaker C: No, it's 20 10. [00:44:22] Speaker A: 20 10 20 10. [00:44:23] Speaker C: Old school. [00:44:24] Speaker A: Holy. The time flies. What a wonderful experience that was watching that the first time. When did you see it? Did you watch it with Mickey? Were you guys together? [00:44:36] Speaker C: No, we watched it together. We watched it at home. And I think we probably watched it in 2010, maybe 2012. I don't know. Something like, it's been a while, but I remember being really excited when our oldest got to the age that I was like, oh, you gotta watch this. You have to watch this. You have to watch this. [00:44:57] Speaker B: I would say that it might be your first recommendation. Whenever somebody talks about horror, it probably is. [00:45:03] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:45:03] Speaker B: Cause I feel like you think it is the most. [00:45:04] Speaker A: It's a good gateway. [00:45:06] Speaker C: It's so approachable. Funny, too. Yeah, it's like, it does have. It is a little bit gory, but it's done with humor. [00:45:14] Speaker A: It's fun gore. [00:45:15] Speaker C: Yeah. Out loud. [00:45:16] Speaker B: Laughs. Like, not. [00:45:17] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, it is. [00:45:18] Speaker B: Like, out loud. Yeah. Like. Like I said, you know, I've used comparison before. It's like, if you grew up watching SNL and the Simpsons and also liked horror, this movie scratched that itch for you. [00:45:31] Speaker C: You. [00:45:32] Speaker B: Because you love SNL. You love kind of silly, you know. [00:45:36] Speaker C: Such a weird saying. Scratch that itch. Scratch. [00:45:39] Speaker B: Yeah, it scratches my itch. [00:45:40] Speaker C: Yeah, I don't like that. [00:45:41] Speaker A: I agree. That what a gross saying, mickey, that. [00:45:46] Speaker B: It scratches your itch. [00:45:48] Speaker C: It is gross, right? It's kind of gross. [00:45:50] Speaker B: He's only saying that because you're down here normally. He's like, I'll scratch your itch. [00:45:54] Speaker C: Ew. [00:45:55] Speaker A: I'll scratch anything you want, buddy. I love you, Molly. I'm not touching you. Stay away from me, girl. Gross. [00:46:05] Speaker B: Cooties. [00:46:08] Speaker A: What. What a wonderful. Oh, man. Even though I just watched it, it's hard to take it off of, like, the possibility it's such a crowd pleaser. We got a lot of people to please this evening. [00:46:20] Speaker B: Always fun. [00:46:21] Speaker C: So good. [00:46:21] Speaker B: Always fun. [00:46:24] Speaker A: God, that's a good pick. [00:46:26] Speaker C: You're welcome. [00:46:27] Speaker A: Okay. [00:46:27] Speaker C: You're welcome. [00:46:28] Speaker A: Mickey, what's your third and final pick? [00:46:31] Speaker B: My next film is not a crowd pleaser. My next film has been called maybe one of the top five worst movies made in the nineties. [00:46:39] Speaker C: Oh, is it called scratch my. [00:46:42] Speaker A: I want to guess. I want to guess. [00:46:43] Speaker B: My next pick has even been called, like, the highest, like, best review it's ever received is. It's passable. As a horror film. [00:46:54] Speaker A: And it's from the nineties. [00:46:56] Speaker B: Okay. Do you want me to give you a better hint? Yeah, give me stars. Two of our most decorated actor, actor and actress of the last decade. [00:47:06] Speaker C: I know what she did last summer. [00:47:08] Speaker B: No decade decorated with like oscars, nominations, Emmys, shallow grave. Is it heralded as amazing actors actually. [00:47:18] Speaker C: Know what it is because I saw. [00:47:19] Speaker B: Your screen that it has a, I believe a 13% rotten tomato. [00:47:26] Speaker A: Can you give me like a clue about the plot or something? [00:47:30] Speaker B: Are Texas royalty? [00:47:34] Speaker A: Is it Texas Chainsaw three? [00:47:36] Speaker B: Texas Chainsaw massacre the next generation with Matthew McConaughey. [00:47:42] Speaker A: That's a legitimate pick. That is a legitimate. I want to hear why that's a legit number one. [00:47:50] Speaker B: I thought you just. [00:47:51] Speaker A: Hold on, hold on. Obviously the first one a masterpiece, and we covered the second one, which is a perfect summer pick. And I love the second one, but I have not ever heard anything good about the third. [00:48:03] Speaker B: There's. [00:48:04] Speaker A: This is a third one, right? [00:48:05] Speaker B: It is. Wow. I don't want to be quoted on it right now. I. Jesus. I didn't prep that particular question. I want to say, yes, it's the third one. It's the third one that I know of, but I. Texas Chainsaw mask is one of these where it's like, well, actually Leatherface Falls is number three, this one's number. And this is actually considered number five because then the Jessica Bills version happens to be blah, blah, blah, blah. And you're like, okay, all right, enough. I don't want to be, it's like, you know, these are one of those, like, they have like a storied franchise that has tons of films that I don't want to misspeak. But I do believe this is the third film. It's definitely the third film with Tobey Hooper involved, that's for sure. [00:48:50] Speaker A: He, he, okay, so he is like. [00:48:53] Speaker B: What, as a buddy is a writer. He has a credit as a writer. Kim Hinkle, the original writer of the original Texas chancellor massacre, is the writer and director of this film. So this comes from the people who created the original. [00:49:08] Speaker C: See, I think. Have I only seen the Jessica Beal? [00:49:12] Speaker B: Probably. That was one those big. [00:49:14] Speaker A: I gotta say, it's really good. I thought that was a good version, actually. Probably, cuz my, that's a good, that's a good update. [00:49:19] Speaker C: 2003. [00:49:20] Speaker B: And I also thought the acting in it was really good. I'm being great performances by good. [00:49:27] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:49:28] Speaker A: But, um, it's, it's, it's not, I mean, like the lightning in a bottle, that is the original can never be, cannot be recaptured in any capacity ever. But, like, I can it ever now. Yeah, but here's the thing. [00:49:41] Speaker B: Here's my pick and why I'm making an argument for why we should watch this. All the sweatiness and summer heat of the first film is present in this film. I mean, Matthew McConaughey is sweaty, man. This is the wettest I've ever seen him in a movie. Renee Zellweger is wet. You're gonna get wet. Renee Zellweger is giving one of her most athletic performances. And this is a woman who's done amazing work. Her Chicago. Chicago. [00:50:13] Speaker A: Talk about athleticism. [00:50:14] Speaker B: Are you kidding me? The movie she did as. No, I'm sorry, the movie she did as Liza Minnelli's mother. Oh, my God. [00:50:25] Speaker C: What? [00:50:25] Speaker B: From wizard of Oz, one of the most famous actresses in history. [00:50:30] Speaker C: Oh, Judy Garland. [00:50:32] Speaker B: Judy Garland. But that was like a physical performance and such a, you know, push as an actress. But she is, when she runs in this movie, she is sprinting. It is like, I'm scared she's gonna hurt her. [00:50:43] Speaker C: I do. [00:50:43] Speaker B: Running on, like, gravel roads, barefoot, you know, she's physically doing that herself. As an actress, she didn't have stunt doubles. She was a young actress trying to make a name for herself. She's pushing herself to the nth degree. It is a masterful job as a young actress trying to just make a name for yourself and giving it everything. Now, Matthew McConaughey is the most batshit crazy I've ever seen him in a fucking. [00:51:07] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, he's a famous meme. [00:51:10] Speaker C: So I have never seen this one. I do. I did not know that there was a Texas chainsaw massacre with Renee Zoe. [00:51:16] Speaker B: It is. It is so nuts, his performance, that it's like, you see hints of a somebody that might either go one of two ways. He's going to be somebody who does a performance like he does in true detective or in Dallas buyers club and get oscars because of it. Or he's going to actually be convicted of a crime in the next two years as like, oh, yeah, evil human. [00:51:38] Speaker A: You got to be fucking crazy. [00:51:39] Speaker B: Like, the places he goes in that film when he's, like, putting his hands in her mouth and, like, playing with her, it's like. It's so disturbing. And to think that he went on to become, like, America's heartthrob after making this film is. [00:51:53] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:51:53] Speaker B: Is a testament to Charlie Farm. It is so batshit crazy that I think you crank this baby, you drink a ton of beer, you invite as many friends over as you want. You talk, you throw popcorn at the screen, you just have a fucking summer fit. Yeah, I mean, this is like, this movie is a party. The other movies, it's like you kind of actually want to watch and enjoy this one. Don't worry about enjoying it because it's not, there's not a lot to enjoy other than the fact you're watching two of our greatest modern day or two of our most celebrated modern day actors in an early film. [00:52:28] Speaker A: That is kind of from yesteryear at this point. [00:52:30] Speaker C: See, I know why I never heard of it. [00:52:32] Speaker B: Why? [00:52:34] Speaker C: It's 16% on Rotten Tomatoes. [00:52:38] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:52:39] Speaker B: It's not loved. [00:52:40] Speaker C: It's not loved and has a 50 meta score. [00:52:42] Speaker B: It's not loved. This is why I want to. [00:52:45] Speaker C: It has an 18% audience score on run. [00:52:47] Speaker A: He's pulling me in with the. Throwing the popcorn and shouting and talking and having fun. That's fun. [00:52:53] Speaker C: That's great. I love a movie. I love a horror film you can talk through and throw popcorn. [00:52:57] Speaker B: I argue with any of our fans, any of our, anybody who listens to show. Go watch some clips on YouTube or the trailers, watch clips on YouTube and listen to Matthew McConaughey and Renee Zeller talk about it. They were sharing, actually, all the actors were sharing. We're sharing one Winnebago that was owned by the producer. So all of them are together. They were breaking like Renee Zellberger says, I'm sure we were breaking like every possible union law you could break. Because she's like, we were working crazy hours, hot and sweaty. Matt McConaughey was like, it was 150 degrees in these, in these places we were shooting because it was indoors, no air conditioning and Texas heat. And you can feel it too, a week ago, sweaty and miserable. But both Matthew McConaughey and Renee Zellerger, like, we had the most fun of our lives because we were not celebrities. We had not been, neither of them had been to LA or anything like that. Matthew McConaughey was pulling his trailer out to move to LA when he got the audition and drove in with his trailer, hitched to his truck and said, I'm going to audition. He was auditioning for the handsome romantic lead who was going to come savor at the end. And the director was like, yeah, great audition. Maybe we'll call you back. He said, hey, can I read for the other guy? Guy? And they gave him the opportunity to reach the other guy, which is the creepy truck driver. And I'm not going to spoil everything about it, but he's very weird. But the guy, but Matthew, they're like, listen, here's your audition. Here's a spoon. Just scare the shit out of us. And by the time he was done, the guy was like, you are it. Here's a. We will give you the role. It was just kismet, you know? [00:54:30] Speaker A: I mean, if we don't watch it tonight, I'm watching it soon. This, you're really. [00:54:36] Speaker B: It is kismet. It is a batshit crazy movie. Like, like Texas Chainsaw Massacre two is a batshit crazy movie. This movie is a batshit crazy movie. It is absolutely nuts. And Matthew McConaughey is doing the most nuts performance I've ever seen from an actor of his, of what will be. [00:54:54] Speaker C: His pedigree of the Texas chainsaw massacre is what it says. [00:54:59] Speaker B: Texas Chainsaw massacre. Next generation. [00:55:01] Speaker C: That's what it said on IMDb. Okay. [00:55:03] Speaker B: No, it's Texas chain. [00:55:04] Speaker C: No, I mean on Rotten Tomatoes. This is what it says. But on IMDb it says the next generation. [00:55:07] Speaker B: Yeah, it's the next generation. But. But how? I came about this movie just to give you some background for me, and then, you know, we'll move on from this. I'm thinking like an hour on this shut up pitch. Tried to do five recommendations instead of three, so I didn't hear. [00:55:22] Speaker A: I did quick. You argued for four. [00:55:24] Speaker B: All right, but how I came about. [00:55:26] Speaker C: I think I just took a nap. [00:55:28] Speaker B: I watched this in high school because. [00:55:30] Speaker A: I was, of course you from fucking Utah. So much time in Texas. [00:55:34] Speaker B: I love Matt. [00:55:34] Speaker A: You're not from Texas, but yeah, I. [00:55:37] Speaker B: Spent formative years in Texas. Texas. I love Matthew McConaughey. I had the biggest crush on Renee Zellweger. And so when I saw this, you're. [00:55:44] Speaker A: Gonna say, I love Matthew McConaughey. I had the biggest crush on. [00:55:47] Speaker B: That's really what I mean. Honestly. I did. I had a man. I had the biggest man crush on Matthew McConaughey. [00:55:52] Speaker A: I was. I was super mad. Like rain of fire. [00:55:55] Speaker B: Oh, man. [00:55:56] Speaker A: Fucking like, dude, a frailty, like. I hear you, brother. I hear you. [00:56:00] Speaker B: Time to kill. [00:56:00] Speaker C: Are you still talking about this? [00:56:02] Speaker B: Yeah, still talking. Matthew McConaughey. But. But when I saw this online, I. [00:56:07] Speaker A: Am not surprised at all that you one of your picks. [00:56:10] Speaker C: I need another. I'm getting another drink, so. [00:56:14] Speaker A: Okay, I think. Mickey, keep talking. I'm gonna get another drink. [00:56:18] Speaker B: You guys go. So I went into the blockbuster and I saw that you had Matthew McConaughey, my man crush, Renee Zellweger, my female crush, in the same movie together. The only thing that I could think was like, I have to watch this. It is my Texas duty as a Texas man to watch this film. I put it on, and I'm telling you, it's flawed. But, God, you could see two amazing artists at work that you knew were going to blaze the silver screen for the next 30 years. [00:56:47] Speaker A: Okay. [00:56:48] Speaker B: Okay. [00:56:51] Speaker A: You're gonna have to cut this down. You realize that, right? Like, I hear you, dude. I. I told you, like, even if we don't watch it tonight, I'm watching this soon. I, like, absolutely have to. That's it sounds. [00:57:03] Speaker B: I am shocked. You missed it. [00:57:04] Speaker A: You sold me. You sold me. Well, it just looked so bad, but, like, oh, it's bad. I'm sold. You sold me. [00:57:11] Speaker C: It's so bad. [00:57:12] Speaker B: No, but it's. [00:57:13] Speaker A: It's so bad. [00:57:14] Speaker B: It's good. [00:57:14] Speaker C: It's. [00:57:14] Speaker B: When it's so bad, it's good. It's so bad, it's good. [00:57:24] Speaker A: After all that, you're like, oh, no, it's bad. [00:57:28] Speaker B: No, it's really bad. [00:57:29] Speaker C: I just heard that creepy clown laugh from the doorway. [00:57:38] Speaker A: The cats are freaking out in the basement. [00:57:40] Speaker B: I can wax poetic about that, dude. [00:57:44] Speaker A: Okay, okay. Great stick, Mickey. [00:57:47] Speaker B: All right, so keep it. Just think about it. Think about it. Just think about it. [00:57:51] Speaker A: I. You sold me on the. Like it would. There's going to be a large group of us, so, like, being able to talk and throw popcorn and enjoy something bad, like, that's a good quality. [00:58:00] Speaker B: Good for you on guessing it. Good for you on guessing that. [00:58:05] Speaker A: Thank you, sir. [00:58:05] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah. Good for you. [00:58:07] Speaker A: Although I think nothing will beat my jaws. Guess. Guess what I pick is jaws. [00:58:15] Speaker B: You were on it. It. [00:58:17] Speaker A: Okay, so, like I said, I narrowed my picks down to four, which is. [00:58:24] Speaker B: Three is what we're supposed to. [00:58:26] Speaker A: So my third. I know. So my third pick, I'm only. I'm riffing off of Tobe Hooper because you. You were just talking about Toby Hooper. So can you guess what my pick is? It's. It's. Toby Hooper directed it. It's from 1979. And technically, it's not. [00:58:46] Speaker B: It's. [00:58:47] Speaker A: It's a. It's a mini series. It's a two part miniseries that. That was released as, like, a full leaked film that you can get. [00:58:57] Speaker C: Is it the stand? [00:58:59] Speaker B: No, no, it's not. No, it's not the non deter, but. [00:59:03] Speaker A: Oh, but you're on the right track, Molly. [00:59:07] Speaker B: So. So Toby Hoover directed miniseries, which was actually cut it into two films. It was two decorated two part series. [00:59:17] Speaker A: But it's one film that's like almost 4 hours long. Great pick, by the way. Yeah. [00:59:23] Speaker C: Also, if I didn't know you guys, I'd be like, how old are they? [00:59:29] Speaker A: I really like stuff from the seventies. [00:59:33] Speaker C: It's the decade after the eighties. This one is 1979. [00:59:40] Speaker B: But that makes sense cause we were also like, we had older brothers. And not just that, but it's like kind of the best stuff came out like slightly before. [00:59:51] Speaker C: I'm just gonna do a quick little look at my list. My oldest one on here is 2001. [00:59:57] Speaker B: You came to horror later in your life. [00:59:59] Speaker A: So to give you, give you a little context, um, for me, two things. One is I grew up poor. And when you grow up poor, you tend to like, your childhood tends to be seeped in things of the old. And also, like, I only really ever connected with my father when I was like a kid and a teen through late night movies he was watching. So like, a lot of that was a lot of seventies and eighties stuff. [01:00:27] Speaker B: And I wanted to be like my brother who was ten years older than me. So everything I was watching was ten years years, you know, ladder than what I was. And also I came to horror so young because my brothers forced me into it that I was watching stuff in like 1989. [01:00:41] Speaker C: Yeah, I feel like we only watched, like, we would put it on it. We would put horror films on at sleepovers, you know, like, I remember watching Candyman. [01:00:49] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:00:52] Speaker C: I don't know. I can't think of anything else right now. [01:00:54] Speaker B: Yeah, you must watch Candyman. [01:00:58] Speaker C: I just remember, I just remember it. I just remember being like. [01:01:03] Speaker A: So Salem's lot based off of Stephen King's 1975 novel. If you haven't, you really need to see Larry Cohen's a return to Salem's lot. It's a sequel from 1987 and it is batshit crazy. It's not good. It's not good, but it's a great Larry Cohen, like, it's bonkers. Then TnT in 2004, adaptation starring Rob Lowe. [01:01:32] Speaker B: Yep. Rob low Salem slot. [01:01:33] Speaker A: Yeah, it just, yeah, it's not, doesn't age well flat. And then in 2019, New Line Cinema announced that they were doing a theatrical release based off of Salem's lot. But like, I don't know what happened to it. I've never seen, I'm not gonna get into it, but like, but like, it's kind of gotten lost. It's like it was gonna be a theatrical release and then a miniseries and it's like, did they, I'd have to look this up, but I think they shot, shot it or shot some of it, I don't know what happened. [01:02:08] Speaker B: But anyways, it's Stephen King's. [01:02:11] Speaker A: I would like to see a modern adaptation, but it's great. It's great. It takes place during the summer. Vampires, Stephen King. I don't. That's all I know. It's not a pick for. It's really not a good pick for tonight. It's like, like I said, it's like, it's like almost 4 hours long. You know what I mean? It's. It's. It's nuts. [01:02:32] Speaker B: It's like when you're the guy, it's like, I don't want my friends to leave at any points. I'm gonna put on the longest possible movie I can find and, like, one that I really like a lot. And your friends like, oh, we came here to, like, hang, dude. And you're like, watch this. [01:02:45] Speaker C: Watch this, guys. Just watch. Just. Just watch it. [01:02:48] Speaker B: It's not over yet. [01:02:49] Speaker A: Yeah, so, Tucker, can I. Whoa. So can I. [01:02:56] Speaker C: We could do. What if we, what if we do a round of honorable mentions and we don't talk about them? We just give the title. [01:03:03] Speaker A: Okay, so, Molly, do you have an honorable mention? [01:03:06] Speaker C: Okay. Yeah. My alternates were the descent x, Maxine, jeepers creepers, and in a violent nature. [01:03:14] Speaker A: Okay, what are your, what are your three alts? [01:03:17] Speaker B: My last three alts are cabin fever, the final girls. [01:03:24] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah. [01:03:26] Speaker B: And children of the corn. [01:03:27] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:03:28] Speaker A: Oh. [01:03:29] Speaker C: Chatted with the director of that film while I was doing a short. [01:03:33] Speaker A: Wait a second. [01:03:34] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:03:34] Speaker A: What? [01:03:35] Speaker B: Molly, you gotta tell that. [01:03:36] Speaker A: You gotta tell this. [01:03:38] Speaker C: He was working at one of the universities here in Pittsburgh, and he was. I was doing a. I was acting in a student film with some of these guys, some of those students, and he was there on set, and we just started talking, and he said, you know, I was like, oh, where are you from? And he said, you know, he did a movie, like, you know, back in the day or whatever, and I was like, oh, cool, what movie? And he said, children of the corn. I was like, what? [01:04:03] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, yeah. [01:04:04] Speaker C: So he's the director. Yeah, yeah. [01:04:06] Speaker B: And did you say. Did you say, whoa, you know, with Linda Hamilton? That's incredible. [01:04:11] Speaker C: No, I didn't. I didn't do that. [01:04:13] Speaker B: That's not something. I love Terminator two. All right, Michelangelo, your alternates. And then, yes, you can do one more movie. You can. If you want to talk about one more movie. [01:04:26] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:04:26] Speaker A: Good guy to work with. [01:04:29] Speaker C: He seemed nice. Yeah, seemed nice. [01:04:33] Speaker A: Okay, juicy. [01:04:36] Speaker C: That's all I got. That's all I got. [01:04:40] Speaker A: So my one alt outside of the other 17 that I have, that I won't mention is 1980s humanoids from the deep. Roger Corman film production. Barbara Peters. You haven't seen it. Humanoids from the deep. [01:05:01] Speaker C: Haven't seen it. Haven't heard of it. [01:05:04] Speaker A: Oh, this is a Joe Bob. Watch it with Joe Bob. [01:05:06] Speaker B: Barbara. Who's in it? [01:05:08] Speaker A: No, Barbara Peters is the director. You can get this. Shot factory did a 30th anniversary special edition dvd and Blu ray in 2010. It's a. It's. It is a Roger, if you like Roger Corman, this is a must see. It's an absolute must see. And watch it on shutter. We're not sponsored by them, but watch it on shutter. Joe Bob. You can watch it with Joe Bob. I think he interviews Corman on that episode. I can't remember for sure, but it's great. I love it. Real quick, before we get to which movie, we're picking movies we've already. We either have YouTube episodes or podcast episodes of. Of that we just didn't add to the list. So on YouTube, we have Friday the 13th part three, the Lost Boys, Silver Bullets, Leap Away, camp, and Martin. All great summer picks. And then our podcast episodes. We have arachnophobia X, the Wicker Man, Texas Chainsaw massacre two, return of the Living Dead, Cruising Creep show, the Mist, the night House, killer clowns from Outer Space, Cujo, green room, the burbs, the burning and madman. Those are all great summer picks that we decided not to talk about tonight. Friends, it's not just about the three of us. It's about everyone else watching the movie with us tonight. What. What is. Molly, what do you think is the one we should watch Tucker now versus evil. [01:06:49] Speaker C: Already said. [01:06:49] Speaker B: Romans, countryman, Lenny, your. [01:06:52] Speaker A: I saw him do this, like, 20 years ago in a studio in New York. [01:06:58] Speaker B: Um, look, guys, I think that the obvious choice is Texas Chainsaw massacre next generation. I want to. I want to put this in your lexicon so bad. [01:07:10] Speaker A: Uh, Mickey, I hear you. I think that's a good pick, because, you guys, I feel like I'm the deciding fact. Can't just pick another movie. Movie, right? Because then we're just back at square one. So I gotta say, I think Tuckern Dale is gonna be the winner for tonight. With this crowd, I think it sound effect. Sorry, Mickey. Tucker and Dale, I think, fulfills the ability to enjoy a film, throw popcorn at the screen, and talk, but still be enthralled and impressed by expert filmmaking. So I gotta say, a listener, please join in the conversation and tell us what your favorite horror summer pics would be, and then, like, let's get the jiffy pop popping, the beers and the soda on ice, the fire pit crackling, the wieners and the s'mores ready to roast, and let's, you know, let's. Let's get going with this. Like, I can't wait to go back and, like, to your mansion, you guys, live. [01:08:29] Speaker B: Let's do it. [01:08:31] Speaker A: This is gonna be a fun. This is gonna be such a fun summer night. We got some tafurki dogs for a vegetarian and vegans. I am so excited. Thank you for listening. Follow us on YouTube, he return slide of horror podcast or on social media. [01:08:50] Speaker B: At the return slide of horror pod. The return slot underscore of horror pod. [01:09:00] Speaker C: Wait, is that it or is that actually it? Oh, God. Somebody punched him in the throat again. [01:09:07] Speaker A: Okay. Okay, that's it. Okay, we're done. [01:09:11] Speaker B: Yeah. Let's go watch this movie. I'm over. Let's go. Let's go. [01:09:14] Speaker A: Okay, bye. [01:09:15] Speaker C: Google it. [01:09:16] Speaker B: I'm firing on all nines.
