Introduction and Hosts' Banter

00:00:05
Jo
it Hey, everyone. Joe and Amelie are back. I'm in pink, she's in black, so it kind of like ACDC song.

Overview of *The Long Walk* Film Discussion

00:00:14
Jo
Today on Streaming Demons, we're doing the long walk, the long walk.
00:00:15
Amelie
Thank you.
00:00:18
Jo
Thank you very much, Lionsgate, for the Blu-ray. Special Blu-rays, thank you. I think we can do this mostly spoiler-free, mostly spoiler-free.

Joe's Concerns with Sharing the Movie Experience

00:00:32
Jo
I mean, the the if you haven't learned anything about The Long Walk, it is a short story back from Stephen King. And they made it into and a movie that's about, what, an hour and change? Hour 40? Yeah, hour 50 minutes.
00:00:46
Jo
I will say this. I was worried about talking to you about this one because i saw it in a theater. I didn't know if you watched her yet or not. And I mentioned, like, oh, you know, they sent us the screener. I was really bummed because it was a physical copy. I'm like, I can't.
00:01:03
Jo
watch it with you. You know, ah I'd have to send it to Prague. And like, no, I love this movie. I saw it. I'm like, oh my God, we got to talk

Controversy Surrounding Stephen King's Politics

00:01:10
Jo
about it. So for those of you don't know, there has been a bit of a controversy. There's a controversy about the movie, The Long Walk.
00:01:18
Jo
It's a controversy. Yes, yes, that's right. The interwebs, the internet. Because people don't like, some people don't like Stephen King's politics.
00:01:32
Jo
They start making bullshit about the movie and him at the same time. So it's like this little spin campaign against the movie that had nothing to do with the fucking movie.

Advertising Strategies and Comparisons

00:01:42
Jo
Like nothing to do with the movie.
00:01:45
Amelie
Interesting, I didn't know about it.
00:01:47
Jo
Yeah.
00:01:47
Amelie
That's why I'm very surprised, because as a European, I saw a lot of advertising over Instagram for this movie, but not a lot on TV.
00:01:57
Jo
Same. Okay. That was gonna bring that up. I didn't know this movie existed except for A, the bad publicity it was getting on before it even was released. Before it was even released, the bad publicity was getting on like Facebook because I have to be on Facebook because of ah being an author that basically is the only way to run ads.
00:02:18
Jo
And I saw a trailer for it once. You know when I saw the trailer for the movie?

Critique of Movie Trailers

00:02:28
Jo
During the fucking movie.
00:02:29
Jo
I actually went to the long walk movie. And they played this bullshit trailer. And I'm so sorry. It's not a full trailer. It's like they interview the cast members for I think it's the Cineplex people do it. I'm not sure.
00:02:42
Jo
Whatever it's like the pre movie thing. Like, you know, Wicked had one. Tron had one. They get the cast and crew or they get the cast over. and they're like, what's your favorite lasagna did? You know, they do shit like that.
00:02:56
Jo
And it's supposed to make people want to watch it. Like, hey, I already bought a fucking ticket to it. What the fuck do I care? I already am not your audience. I have the ticket. I'm watching it now. That's why I can see this. then They're trying to prep you up, I guess.
00:03:11
Jo
And they're all dog shit. It almost made me want to leave the movie theater before I actually watched it. I'm like, you know what? If this is the movie, I just can't do it. I fucking just can't do it.
00:03:22
Amelie
That's previous conversation you and I we had about trailers, publicity, how we heard about movies, etc.
00:03:28
Jo
Yeah.
00:03:31
Amelie
Nowadays with Instagram, you have a new genre, new channel, cinephiles like me, who have favorite movies, editing, who share their favorite part of the movie.
00:03:43
Amelie
And I found out about that movie via Instagram. with little reels about you won't believe what happened happened to that kid or if they stop walking they're dead and I got captivated by this little reel this little shot so I found on internet the movie and I watched it
00:04:03
Jo
that's That's interesting.

Interactive Screening Event

00:04:05
Jo
She watched it legally by the way she meant. She saw it streaming legally. Hello. But that's the interesting part. I just also learned something like in August 30th, 2025, Lionsgate, according to IMDb, they had a special screening where there were so the people watching it had to walk on a treadmill for three miles per hour.
00:04:26
Jo
and when they stopped, they got tossed out the screening. Isn't amazing? I think that's such a cool idea.
00:04:32
Amelie
I love it.
00:04:33
Amelie
I really love it.
00:04:33
Jo
Yeah.
00:04:34
Jo
Yeah, I think that's wonderful. like Welcome to america America's a obesity epidemic and like get people the watching movies at the same time.
00:04:41
Amelie
I would do it. i would do it.
00:04:43
Jo
I would know too.
00:04:44
Amelie
Look, I would do it with you.
00:04:44
Jo
I was jealous.
00:04:46
Amelie
I would say, look, we're going, you and i on a treadmill, and we're going to watch a movie, and we need to walk in a certain pace.
00:04:46
Jo
Yeah. Yeah.
00:04:53
Amelie
We need to do it. And the one who lost, get each... get me papaya for me and for you you decide your restaurant restrains
00:05:03
Jo
Dang right. And we can never include Tony Horton because Tony can walk on a treadmill with his hands. I've seen this. He's walking with his hands more than I can probably walk straight.
00:05:15
Jo
It's like, how do you do this? So yeah, it's a great, it's a great gimmick. I think Lionsgate went all out on that one. But again, i didn't know that until I scrolled down and IMDB for this review.
00:05:29
Jo
It's one of those things where the publicity just wasn't there to where it should have been for this movie, at least in Canada or the United States.
00:05:30
Amelie
yeah
00:05:38
Jo
It's weird. I've seen publicity for other things that come out a year from now.

Stephen King's Adaptations and Genre Placement

00:05:43
Amelie
And it is a movie based on a book of Stephen King with a bunch of teenagers, young actors, and it serves on the, I don't know, the Stranger Things, a Young Teenager Who Can Die, yeah You Know There Kids Who die yeah ah What Kind Of Movie It Reminds Me Of, um The One With Katniss Everdeen, Pa Pa Pa, What's The Name, What's The Name?
00:06:12
Jo
Red Dawn. No, still.
00:06:14
Amelie
um bum pum pum bum pum
00:06:17
Jo
I know that movie.
00:06:19
Amelie
I Don't Remember The Name Of This Trilogy ah Anyway, yeah, thank you.
00:06:23
Jo
Hunger Games, by the way. I'll say, hold on.
00:06:25
Amelie
So you see bunch of the teenagers a really dystopian...
00:06:26
Jo
Before we do this... No, no, no, sorry.
00:06:31
Amelie
Yeah, you know what I mean? Like...
00:06:32
Jo
I have to say officially fuck the Hunger Games. That's just rip up of Battle Royale. Anyone's ever watched a goddamn movie knows that Battle Royale came years before. we No one knows how Hunger Games people didn't get fucking sued for that.
00:06:46
Jo
It's at like, what's let's make them Western. It's fucking Battle Royale. The books come from someone watching Battle Royale once and writing like a fanfic. And then somehow they made a franchise all that shit.
00:06:57
Jo
So fuck the Hunger Games.
00:06:58
Amelie
Okay, if you want to. But basically, it just surfed on the wave of teenagers being in a sort of capital where

Narrative Comparison and Emotional Themes

00:07:08
Amelie
they can get killed very easily and everything is normal.
00:07:09
Jo
Yeah.
00:07:11
Amelie
Survival, survival, which is really, really interesting. And you're telling me in America, because of political situation, he didn't get the advertising needed.
00:07:20
Jo
Yeah,
00:07:23
Amelie
That's so weird.
00:07:24
Jo
yeah it it didn't get as much of a positive spin because people were just, they were spreading bullshit lies about the movie. And they were like dooming like, oh my God, didn't it make $2 billion in opening day? What a fucking failure.
00:07:40
Jo
What movie did you guys fucking do? Nothing? need to shut the fuck up then. So I'll read this off for you. If you don't know, on IMDb, I'll read this off again. It is rated R and deservedly so.
00:07:53
Jo
A group of teenage boys complete complete wow compete in an annual contest known as a long walk in which they must maintain a certain walking speed or get shot. Now, I read this as a kid.
00:08:07
Jo
I loved this short as a kid, ah the the whole thing. I believe it was a slightly different version in the book, slightly different version in the book, but didn't matter.
00:08:24
Jo
it didn't It didn't actually fucking matter to me, right? If you're looking at the, there's still an authoritarian regime. as still all this stuff. And there's still a, watch. This is from the book, more or less.
00:08:37
Jo
You still get 100 young men. But for me, when was reading this a kid, young men meant like 30s. You know? These are like teenagers.
00:08:49
Jo
These are late teens, early 20s, you know? ah Four miles per hour and are verbal warnings shot, blah, blah, blah, you get app prize rest your life. So it kind of does map out and it holds true.
00:09:04
Jo
There are a lot of Stephen King movies that just don't go well. And there's nothing to do with, know, always wished him like out wish I can't watch to wait, you know, all these other things, but can't watch to wait. Jesus, man, can't wait to watch them.
00:09:19
Jo
Dark Tower didn't go too well. They kind flopped through. wasn't enjoyable. The Stand did well. Both miniseries of The Stand did well. you know This one, I think, if people can get their heads out of the bullshit politics of not the movie at all, is enjoyable.
00:09:43
Jo
It is psychological. It's a thriller. a survivalist. Teen horrors. All these things. And the acting is enjoyable. You know, you care if these people die or not.
00:09:59
Jo
Even the ones you barely know, you care about them. Right? Now, when you're watching this, did you have your favorites?
00:10:10
Jo
did Did you like put bets on like who's going to die, who who's going to live?
00:10:16
Amelie
Yes, yes.
00:10:16
Jo
Yeah.
00:10:17
Amelie
And my favorite. um I really like the one who wants to talk to his mother. There's a moment when his mother comes and he wants to talk to his mother and he's saved by this friend.
00:10:30
Jo
Yeah. Cooper
00:10:31
Amelie
I like him. I don't remember who is who, but there's a few I was like, I wonder if he's going to leave this one.
00:10:34
Jo
cooper hoffen
00:10:37
Amelie
and Yay, I really like it. But so big question, would I survive? And thinking of my brother Jerry, would Jerry survive? Because

Personal Reflections and Memories

00:10:50
Amelie
um it reminds me race when I was a teenager.
00:10:55
Amelie
Between the age of 11 to 15 years old, there is a race in Erceladis with mandatory for all schools and are always derived in the first 10. And it's like 200 kids just run, run, run, right?
00:11:10
Amelie
right And the problem is at the beginning, it was very slippery because there were a lot of mud. So a lot of kids, for example, fell and they got welcomed because the beginning people who are bullied, they want to just push people and fight people and bruise people and stuff.
00:11:20
Jo
Yeah. i shop
00:11:27
Amelie
So a lot of people get their nose broken, arm broken. ah They go to the hospital, etc. Like it's just pure violence. So the first 500 meters, I would say, you just run to not fail.
00:11:43
Amelie
And then if you arrive after two kilometers, well, either you're survivor, either you are really good at sport. And I was really, really good at it. And my biggest concern was, fuck, Jerry.
00:11:56
Amelie
Jerry is jerry's going to be fine. Jerry was fine. He was not on the first, like me. But Jerry was a protected by his friend.
00:12:02
Jo
Thank you.
00:12:03
Amelie
So they would run arm to arm to not fail together to really protect everyone. And they were running together, walking together. But yeah, it was like everybody was trying to not so participate to the race and get a doctor paperwork to say, I've got asthma, I'm obese, or I've got a low sugar pressure and stuff. But I was doing it. I really liked it.
00:12:28
Amelie
Till I realized, oh shit, my brother. So when I was watching the movie The Walk, I was like, that's the kind of stupid shit I would try to participate, number one.
00:12:35
Jo
You put yourself in.
00:12:40
Amelie
And number two, what if it was just mandatory for my brother? Like, i would be I would be really stressed.
00:12:48
Jo
You would participate in a walk, but if, okay, this is this is coming from the

Promotional Strategies and Media Contrast

00:12:54
Jo
Blu-ray again. They, the Blu-ray is magnificent, by the way, you even get a digital copy so we can watch it anywhere you want. And you can take it on plane with you. And it really does up the experience.
00:13:07
Jo
I'm looking at the IMDb versus what they brought in the Blu-ray. Again, the IMDb should be a ashamed of yourself. They have a log line. I get it, but they could expand in this, like the back, this intense, you know, chilling and emotional thriller from master storyteller, Stephen King. you know How far could you go? 50 teenage boys.
00:13:25
Jo
are about to find out in a grueling competition called the Long Walk, overseen by the merciless Mark Hamill, playing against character. The contest is the ultimate expression of every man for himself.
00:13:40
Jo
to walk the whi that To the walk's winner will go the ultimate prize, riches beyond belief, and any wish he desires. And then you're talking about this, like you're talking about the local kid, Gary. And the reason why you you were having a hard time naming them, because they all get numbers.
00:14:00
Jo
They all get their names stripped away. They're just numbers in this movie. And then you're talking about this, and it ends with this. But the soul-crushing truth remains only one will survive, walk or die the long walk, right?
00:14:14
Jo
That's exactly it. So you're saying you would join something where you know if you lose, you die.
00:14:24
Jo
You volunteer for that.
00:14:29
Jo
She's shaking her head yes, I believe.
00:14:30
Amelie
You know I'm stupid, right?
00:14:31
Jo
Yeah.
00:14:32
Amelie
You know I'm stupid, right? You know I did dangerous stuff, stupid stuff. And that kind of shit, I should be the kind of person who volunteered.
00:14:45
Amelie
How can I say
00:14:46
Jo
That is true. I do.
00:14:47
Amelie
Let me rephrase.
00:14:48
Jo
No, I saw her eat a hot dog before.
00:14:48
Amelie
Let me rephrase. In this kind of situation, in this kind of situation, backstory, world... where I could protect my family and get huge amount of money, right?
00:15:05
Amelie
But as a condition, participate to that race and I walk, walk, walk, I would do it. I know i would do it.
00:15:16
Amelie
And my parents would do everything to not let me go. I know I imagine my father struggled me and took me to a room and barricade me for sure.
00:15:28
Amelie
I know my mom would do everything to not let me go, even to break my arm. I know that. I know that for a fact. But yeah, I would be, i would i would try it. i would be I would be able to do it.
00:15:44
Amelie
Able to sign, I don't know, but able to to say yeah, I want, yeah.
00:15:46
Jo
So you're saying.
00:15:50
Jo
Well, you're only going say once because, you know, you be dead or when you're not going to do it again, either way. That's the thing. So you're saying you would put yourself through hell to make sure you support your family.
00:16:09
Amelie
Yeah.
00:16:10
Jo
Even though at the risk of your own health.
00:16:13
Amelie
Yes.

Depiction of Survival and Psychological Intensity

00:16:14
Jo
Huh. Imagine that. Okay. I mean, I believe. I don mean, yeah. No. That's that's good to see. i mean, don't do the fucking race. If it ever happens, don't do that. But that's what they're doing. That's what exactly what these kids are doing.
00:16:27
Jo
They are doing this to, well, most. No spoilers. That's what 95% of them are doing. They're doing it knowing that they have a, what?
00:16:39
Jo
Whatever the 1 in 50, 1 in 30 chance. What is it going be here? They have 1 in 50 chance of winning, but 49 out of 50 chance of dying.
00:16:54
Jo
You know? Like just numerically. So the odds are stacked against them for a very long time. And they also know that you kind of do need to do the duck, duck, duck, you know, carrier through if you want to have any type of sleeping.
00:17:11
Jo
Remember, think of all the things you have to do. This is not like a walk for a while and take a break. like No, they walk until they're dead. This means how do you pee?
00:17:22
Jo
Peeing backwards, no problem. How about pooping? That sucks. How about sleeping? Sleepwalking happens, but you're going to stumble and fucking look go down in your pace and you're to shot. So all these things, man.
00:17:36
Jo
Like I saw one dude keep brushing his teeth. if I'm like, yeah why he's brushing his teeth? Like, oh, he's gonna be there for while. I get it. And I think even when they're reduced to numbers,
00:17:48
Jo
that is still showing some humanity because the acting is so fucking strong in this movie. The acting is amazing.
00:17:59
Jo
When Mark Hamill plays the realistic bad guy and you actually start hating Mark Hamill, that's

Mark Hamill's Antagonist Role

00:18:09
Jo
the bar. That's the entry level to the bar. And yes, he's done Joker, but you never really hated the Joker. You hate the major.
00:18:17
Jo
You hate the major. And there's some kids in here that you don't want to die in the beginning. And then you know that most of them will.
00:18:29
Jo
They have to. It's almost like watching a Game of Thrones episode where all your favorite characters are in one episode and you like, okay, today's the last episode. No.
00:18:41
Jo
And it turns out for a Game of Thrones, the plot died. These are just a character. I know. think like the last couple seasons of Game Thrones were absolute utter shit.
00:18:49
Amelie
Crazy, huh? They killed everything, even the plot. That's amazing, like, seriously.
00:18:54
Jo
Yeah, they killed everything. Yeah. That's basically it for them. But this is
00:19:03
Jo
just bunch. The movie is like, what's the movie about? A bunch of fucking kids walking. It's basically The Hobbit. and know Not to rip off Kevin Smith, but that's all they fucking did in this movie was walk.
00:19:14
Jo
That's it.
00:19:14
Amelie
walk walk walk walk everybody walking everybody walk and what do they do is they walk walk walk walk
00:19:16
Jo
That's all they do in this movie is fucking walk. That's it
00:19:24
Jo
it. But it hooks you for an hour and 50 minutes. And it gets a rated R of just people walking. It's amazing.
00:19:34
Jo
Like, I don't know why for real it got negative publicity other than people didn't like

Film Reception and Success

00:19:42
Jo
Stephen King. Some people don't like it. you know So they're just trying to shit on everything he does.
00:19:46
Jo
Well, it sucks because he's talented and he's going to outshine you bitches anyways. So hate on him. I guess hate on him all you want. My issue with this movie is the lack of advertising I saw.
00:20:02
Jo
But maybe they thought like the publicity I knew about the movie existed because people were trashing it. Maybe they thought that's enough. like Any publicity is good publicity type thing. It is not.
00:20:14
Jo
You actually need good publicity to help. Yeah, it gets a rated R for strong blood.
00:20:18
Amelie
Do you know where you can see the movie, etc.? Like, for example, I like to go on Instagram, I guess, but somebody like you maybe needs a little trailer or something like that.
00:20:22
Jo
Yeah. Yeah.
00:20:29
Jo
Yeah, you catch me on Instagram and did something wrong. Like I have to start regrowing my Instagram. It's painful for me because I don't like it. I don't like social media in general. So the person working social media.
00:20:38
Amelie
Do you want me to work on it? I will publish all your pictures of you in topless.
00:20:42
Jo
Are you serious?
00:20:44
Amelie
Yeah, I can't. No, seriously, if you need help, I could, ah I would be very happy.
00:20:45
Jo
no No, no, no.
00:20:49
Amelie
Not to put ducks.
00:20:50
Jo
Yeah, I bet. No.
00:20:52
Amelie
Are you sure? Are you sure there is such a superhero picture you have?
00:20:54
Jo
Actually, you know what the the fun thing is? You want to see me topless? You want to see me topless? Go check out The Music's Over. The new anthology by Empty Hell is coming out. You can see me topless. There, I'm the fucking book cover.
00:21:07
Jo
There you go. Modeling 101. but Yeah, you can see me topless from, was that? God, that was from a shoot. That actually was from a shoot. It was an outtick, so I'm being strangled by a zebra. That makes sense in a minute.
00:21:20
Jo
It must have been 30 years ago. i don't know, 25 years ago, something like that. Sadly enough, I think I was the same. a little bit. So with $20 million dollars budget, it opened for 11 people.
00:21:33
Jo
who Well, he made half his budget and opened week, and that's not great, but it's not horrible.
00:21:33
Amelie
Thank you.
00:21:39
Jo
And it still makes 63 worldwide. So even if you double it for their... Honestly, God, I don't know why they're doubling it because usually you you did 20 minute budget, 20 million, 20 million budget. You do 20 million in pr and shit like that.
00:21:55
Jo
but I'm not sure where the PR came from. Like Lionsgate pushing this DVD Blu-ray. I love it. I thank you. It's a fucking amazing thing. And yes, yes, Virginia.
00:22:07
Jo
Yes, should gets it. Yes, should gets it. It is very cool.
00:22:14
Jo
But I didn't see trailers. and Even when I'm watching the movies, I saw so many freaking movies. I didn't see trailers for this movie. I didn't see coming attractions for this movie. Maybe it just happened to be in Canada. Maybe that's what it was. I don't know.
00:22:29
