Fall Season Discussion and Experiences
00:00:40
Speaker
But first, how do you guys feel about the fall season? Is it your favorite? Least favorite? One thing I want to call out before we dive into thoughts and feelings about fall. um Fall actually does start in September. It's like September 21st.
00:00:56
Speaker
I'll actually be hearing this in fall. Welcome to fall. Let me be the first to welcome you to the new season nine days after.
00:01:09
Speaker
i love fall. But... i love northeast fall that was my question to you how is fall comparatively to fall living in texas
00:01:21
Speaker
like okay apple cider autumn leaves Piles of leaves to jump into. Raking the yard.
00:01:33
Speaker
Cool, crisp air. Trick-or-treating with your friends when it's like 50 degrees out. Seeing your breath on those random warnings. None of that are things you can experience down here.
00:01:47
Speaker
And I miss every single one of them. And yet, I still... bought a house here for some reason. Um, so what you just unpack that however you want.
Favorite Seasons and Months
00:02:01
Speaker
That's fair. T money, Mississippi, our falls. Uh, they're okay. I mean, it's not, it's not really a full season. It's a better than, than Austin, but, um, I don't know. I just feel like here there's nothing to jump into like a pile of leaves.
00:02:20
Speaker
I could probably dive into some like dirt and scorpions.
00:02:26
Speaker
I'm good. and Like, so I've been in Texas my whole life. It's a very sad story for some reason. And it makes no sense. And I've always known this, but like, I think I could categorize fall as being my favorite season, but I have no reason to, i think what I see on TV and in the pictures of like what fall should be, i really enjoy.
00:02:52
Speaker
And so for here, it's just, it's not as hot, which is also nice. Yeah. Sometimes, because
Introduction to the Fall Draft Categories
00:02:58
Speaker
sometimes October's a scorcher. So like, not really, actually.
00:03:04
Speaker
then maybe you should just never experience like a true Northeastern autumn season because then you won't have that picturesque idea of it anymore. But I, I need, like, I just want to see the leaves. But here's the thing.
00:03:20
Speaker
Autumn in like upstate New York or Vermont, or even like New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Massachusetts, It bangs. I know. it is actually like autumn in Vermont is actually that good. I know. I've seen the pictures.
00:03:36
Speaker
Like it's like, oh, like, you know you hype it up in your mind and it's like you get there. It's like ah, well, you know, I checked up. No, it actually rocks. Like, I'm sorry. It's you. You need to go experience it. Like our leaves don't even change colors here. They just die.
00:03:51
Speaker
Yeah, I am interested to see what the trees in my yard do. Yeah, send pictures of that. um Would you guys, is fall your favorite season? What's your favorite season? I flip-flop between summer and winter.
00:04:05
Speaker
But fall is really nice. It'll never be last. Spring is always last for me. But I, I love them all.
00:04:16
Speaker
All right, name your favorite month. Go. Well, September was

Speaker
March?
00:04:48
Speaker
Mine's February. March or August? I low-key hate April. My family doesn't have a good... time with November usually so that's just usually when everyone decides to pass away it's November oh wow um I think it's three at this point or something damn so November's a tough month for us right so bad November touchy also agree with you with August August feels like the Wednesday of months yeah it's like a bummer hu anyway are you guys ready for this fall draft
00:05:23
Speaker
No, it's this was difficult. I don't know why you've made us do this. Sorry. to Sorry to throw it. It was like I had a hard time coming up with categories. i was like trying to look at other podcasts. I'm like, has anyone else done a fall draft?
00:05:36
Speaker
Are there any fall drafts anywhere? How do I come up with these categories? We're going to see if fall draft is a market or not. Yeah. Yeah. We're going to we're check. So you guys let us know how we did.
00:05:48
Speaker
And I guess we'll just see how it goes. But we've got seven categories for you today. Categories are
Continued Draft Picks and Personal Stories
00:05:53
Speaker
movie that released in September. Not off to a hot start. Back to school movies.
00:05:58
Speaker
I like that one. Fall slash autumn vibes. A horror movie wild card. Fall romance. Hear me out. Now this is an under 60% on Rotten Tomatoes.
00:06:10
Speaker
This movie does not have to be fall themed. This category was chosen because it fell in ratings. Nice. And then the last category, movie with a Thanksgiving scene, which is very slim pickings.
00:06:23
Speaker
That was very difficult.
00:06:26
Speaker
So what I'm going to do is spin the wheel and we'll see who goes first today. You guys ready? Sure. Mm-hmm. The wheel is spinning. I haven't been first yet.
00:06:37
Speaker
And it looks like it's you. oh thank God. He could have been talking about me, guys. Oh, T-Money.
00:06:48
Speaker
For clarification. And second is Alex. Let's go. And I am third. All right. Malik's going to lose out on all the prospects. Dude, there's not much.
00:07:05
Speaker
There's not much here. So I pulled out a crazy one for fall romance. I'm excited to hear it All right, Tachi, you are the first in our annual fall draft that we will do every year now.
00:07:20
Speaker
ah Okay, great. We just make the same face. Yeah.
00:07:25
Speaker
where Where are you going first? I'm going to go with movie with the Thanksgiving scene because there was only one that I could find that I've even seen. And so with the first pick of the draft, movie with the Thanksgiving scene category, I'm going to go Spider-Man.
00:07:40
Speaker
God. I knew it. I know. I'm sorry. Not fair. Not fair. Yeah, that was a pretty tense scene, actually. It's a really good scene. Yeah. um Yeah, when Googling movies with Thanksgiving scenes, I wasn't getting a lot.
00:07:56
Speaker
I thought of two. Two? Two. don't know. I can't remember exactly what happens here. Is it... um peter's on the ceiling and the blood drips or something right yeah like hiding from um norman yeah so he's so norman harry and mary jane are at the apartment yeah spider-man just came from the burning building um And he's trying to sneak into his room and the camera whips and then Norman is about to walk in and then Peter's gone. He's on the ceiling blood drops and then he sees the cut while they're at the Thanksgiving dinner.
00:08:34
Speaker
Got it. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. That's a really good scene though. Good. All right. Alex.
00:08:44
Speaker
I think.
00:08:48
Speaker
I am going to go. with fall autumn vibes for my first pick okay i'm gonna do the clichéest one but i'll save my two wild or my two uh honorable mentions for the end um fantastic mr fox damn it man uh i wanted that one i did too that's a blue chip autumn movie right yeah it's brilliant that's a fantastic movie no pun intended I can't think of a movie that cultivates the fall autumn vibe better than Fantastic Mr. Fox.
00:09:26
Speaker
And I mean, it's down to everything, but most of all, it's the color palette and the soundtrack. And it's just a treat every time I watch it.
00:09:38
Speaker
Such a fun movie. I always think of the, uh, there's the clip of George Clooney outside recording some lines of dialogue they and they got him like throwing the leaves at him recording everything outside. So rolling around on the grass. Yeah. So it just really adds to, to the authenticity and the feel of the movie. But yeah, that's a, that's a great pick. I've got that on my list to, to revisit here in the next month or so.
Film Merits and Critiques
00:09:58
Speaker
All right. So it now comes to me. What will I go with first? I think I'll also go with fall autumn vibes.
00:10:09
Speaker
And we discussed this a little bit before we started recording because Alex, you have not seen this, but I'm going to go. oh actually. Okay.
00:10:25
Speaker
Scratch that. I'm going fall romance and I'm picking when Harry met Sally. I haven't seen it. Me neither.
00:10:35
Speaker
Well, I've got a single DVD copy here with both of your names on it. Whenever you guys are ready. I'm i'm in the car. you know what? thats That's the third movie. So we we all together, we have to watch Popstar.
00:10:46
Speaker
He and then when Harry met Sally. Nice. An insane triple feature.
00:10:53
Speaker
I like it. All right. So, oh, shit. Back to me. All right. Fine. Oh, we doing snake draft. Yeah, we know we've always done snake draft. I don't remember. um I'm going to go movie that released in September.
00:11:08
Speaker
This is another category that doesn't have to be a fall themed movie. It just has to have been released in September. But September 3rd, 2020, we got Tenet. I almost chose that one.
00:11:22
Speaker
So I'm going with Tenet. Fantastic score. Great movie. It's the same spelled backwards and forwards. Who would have thunk?
00:11:31
Speaker
What's called? Palindrome? Palindrome, yeah. Let's go. Let's start with a P. All right. Back to Alex. I'm going to go with Hear Me Out.
00:11:45
Speaker
Under 60% Rotten Tomatoes because it fell in ratings. And I was actually surprised to see this movie got only a 50% on Rotten Tomatoes.
00:11:57
Speaker
um Because I really think this one has a bad rap. And it's the first Saw movie. Wow, it does. what is it What is the actual rating? 50%.
00:12:08
Speaker
fifty Straight 50 is 50, 50%. fifty percent Is that audience or critics? Critics. Wow. I think the first saw is solid.
00:12:20
Speaker
It's a, it's a good psychological horror. I don't think it, you know, it's like silence of the lambs tier. because really what what is, but I think it's pretty good. I think it's worth the watch. I think the franchise gets a bad rap for things that come later, but that first movie is, it's really good.
00:12:38
Speaker
First movie is really good. I i would say I'm a truther for the first three, at least. Also, I feel like Saw was one of the first movies I saw as a younger kid that actually kind of traumatized me specifically the cutting his leg off scene yeah and the music and just like that was our introduction to jigsaw and as a 10 year old jigsaw was like the worst problem you could have like he was terrifying so and um like the sand pits oh yeah quicksand yeah quicksand
00:13:12
Speaker
Yeah, I was really worried about Jigsaw, Quicksand, and the Bermuda Triangle. I thought the Bermuda Triangle was going be a real big problem for me growing
00:13:23
Speaker
Still is. Still might be, so it won't catch me over there. All right, is it back to me? Back to you. Okay, my next two picks.
00:13:33
Speaker
I'll go i'll go with a different category. Back to school. um kind of torn, but I'll go with the probably better movie in book smart.
00:13:48
Speaker
Oh, good pick. Thank you. Mine. What's up? Oh, just going to clarify. So for the back to school category for, for our listeners, they don't have to be going back to school.
00:14:01
Speaker
They just have to be like heavily involved in school. The movie has to be primarily set in a school. So
Regional Banter and Impactful Movies
00:14:06
Speaker
sense yeah, good pick for book smart, which are next category. Next one, i will go Scary Movie.
00:14:16
Speaker
Or Horror Movie Wild Card, sorry. um This one's actually pretty automy, and it's hereditary. I know I've talked about it a lot so far, but I think it fits theme, and it fits category.
00:14:29
Speaker
It kind of does have fall vibes. It does. I like it. Thank you. Cozy little wholesome family. Yes. Yeah. a Nice rainy day. Cozy blanket and heads will roll.
00:14:43
Speaker
Nice. Back to Alex.
00:14:47
Speaker
Um, I am going to
00:14:54
Speaker
do movies with a Thanksgiving scene. Okay. There were two movies that I thought of. Um,
00:15:06
Speaker
that had Thanksgiving scenes. And one of them is infinitely funnier than the other to pick. So without further ado, ladies and gentlemen, I pick Thanksgiving for my movie with the Thanksgiving scene.
00:15:24
Speaker
Have you seen Thanksgiving? Yes. You have? I have seen Thanksgiving. Can you give us a quick like blurb? Wait, is this the one that happens in the restaurant? No, it's the turkey.
00:15:35
Speaker
Oh, okay. it whatever you think about this movie is it's probably like a thousand percent true it's one of those veloci pastor tear like ah however it has like two or three moments where it clearly knows exactly what the movie is and the joke is like hilarious and So I gave it a three out of 10, but it's like an hour long. Like it kind of bangs.
00:16:10
Speaker
It's kind of worth the watch, you know? Okay. But maybe I'll add it to the watch list. And the the other thing is, it's all practical effects, which are pretty solid. Like for like a tiny minor budget movie, like it, you know, they're not good, but they're like, they're better than I could whip up in my garage. So when did that one come out?
00:16:33
Speaker
When did Thanksgiving come out? I'm going to say pre-2010. oh the older. You are correct. 2008. Oh, nice. All right.
00:16:44
Speaker
It had a production budget of guess how much? um Hour long practical effects. I'm go say $4,000. I'll $3,000. Oh, i'll say three thousand oh god You guys are exactly the same distance. It was 3,500. my God. Wow.
00:17:06
Speaker
Pretty good. and Now what are do we do? Do we, uh, think kiss. Okay. Yeah.
Strong Film Opinions and Scores
00:17:12
Speaker
Tachi. I leaned into my mic.
00:17:17
Speaker
We do this podcast remote, by the way. i don't know if that's ever been established. We live in the same city, but we're miles apart. that's right would do for Technically, you live in Round Rock. so You live in Narnia.
00:17:31
Speaker
well It's still in within the Austin city limits. I'm within the Austin city limits. No, you're in Round Rock. I'm in Pflugerville. It's still Austin city limits. No, that's Travis County city limits. Round Rock is Round Rock.
00:17:45
Speaker
Okay, well, when I categorize something as city limits, I'm like, am I less than 15 minutes away from being in the city? Yes. Boo! Boo!
00:17:56
Speaker
Leave me alone. Fake Austinites, the both of you. Bro, I've been here for 11 years. i don't want to hear it. Yeah, I've been here for eight. Let's not compare sizes and lengths. We did, and mine was longer. Anyway,
00:18:11
Speaker
um I'm going fall slash autumn vibes, and I'm picking an animated classic that I think everybody loves that I also love. I'm going with the Iron Giant. Ooh, good one.
00:18:23
Speaker
That's a really good one. I watched this. Yeah, i I watched this recently too. like Within the last like six months, I think. Holds up so well. So good. All right. um And I am back on the clock again.
00:18:37
Speaker
Is Iron Giant Vin Diesel's best performance? Are you telling me that Vin Diesel plays the giant? Yeah, doesn't he? Does he? Yeah. Really?
00:18:47
Speaker
Really? Yeah. No wonder Michael Caine came back. That's going to be news to me. Jennifer Aniston was Annie. Is that the mom? Yeah.
00:18:59
Speaker
And then Vin Diesel was the Iron Giant. Oh my gosh. That's neat. That's very neat. I had a ah had no idea. And no, it's not his best role.
00:19:11
Speaker
Is it Groot? It's Groot. That's a joke. i I don't know. i don't know if this will be his best role. Um...
00:19:20
Speaker
What I just do fall slash autumn vibes. Yeah. Okay. I'll go horror movie wild card. And for this one, I'm picking the Blair witch project.
00:19:32
Speaker
Boo, that movie sucks. What? I think that movie is terrible. Yeah. When did you watch it? Like two years ago, a year ago, not even that long ago. So knowing like when it was released, I'm sure you saw like the whole like campaign for the movie leading up to it.
00:19:49
Speaker
Yeah. And I, I went into this movie even with low expectations because both my parents hate it and I still hated it. Wow. I kept an open mind.
00:20:00
Speaker
I love found footage as a genre. I know this is like on the Mount Rushmore. It's not the first, but it's on the Mount Rushmore. And I think it was the one that brought it to yeah the the public consciousness.
00:20:12
Speaker
But I think that this, well, I think the Blair Witch was a bad movie. I was bored to tears by Yeah, the first half is pretty rough. I'm not going lie. Well,
00:20:26
Speaker
We can all agree to disagree. No, I think we need to dive into this more and argue about it. We will. We've got a whole found footage episode coming up, and so I'm sure this one will get brought up and we can fight about it then.
00:20:38
Speaker
Which will be recorded tomorrow.
00:20:41
Speaker
I have yeah two movies to watch. All right, Alex, you and your wrong opinions are up. Oh, you mean my totally super correct opinions?
00:20:54
Speaker
Sure.
00:20:57
Speaker
All right. want to go back to back banger picks fall romance. Here we go to all the boys I've loved before. I feel like you've talked about that movie before.
00:21:08
Speaker
I have, but I don't think on the pod. Okay. To all the boys. It is like a Netflix romance teen movie. And for some reason, that's right i watched in college.
00:21:20
Speaker
And the worst part was, ah didn't hate it.
00:21:25
Speaker
ah It was pretty solid. I watched the second one. like The girl I was dating at the time, her and her roommate were going to watch the second one. And I'm like, oh, you know, to all the boys, like, yeah.
00:21:38
Speaker
Oh, my God. Peter Kaminsky, like, and then she's like, what? And I'm like, yeah, he's my boy. Like, he's my favorite, you know? and you know, I enjoyed it. And so I watched the second one with her. I never saw the third one, though.
00:21:51
Speaker
So i don't know what happens. Do you guys, Alex, do you know the Rotten Tomatoes score? No. Audience score is 84%. The critics score 96%. Whoa. Whoa.
00:22:02
Speaker
whoa That's shocking. Yeah, because it's a solid movie. like It's not like Snack Shack levels of like, this has no business of being as good as it is, but I enjoyed it.
00:22:13
Speaker
I enjoyed the first one. It's cute. Would you say that it's like like basic from a like a structure standpoint, like predictable, but it's still good time? It's super basic.
00:22:25
Speaker
But it' it's cute. It's a fun little movie. It takes place in the fall. I mean, it probably could have worked as a back to school movie, too. Uh-huh. And um I really enjoyed it. And so.
00:22:37
Speaker
Cool. Yeah, if I was browsing Netflix, i had that that's not a movie that I would click. But if it's getting some endorsement from you, I might think about it. Me too. It's better than Blair Witch.
00:22:48
Speaker
Okay, moving on. Yeah.
Nostalgic Films and Final Draft Selections
00:22:52
Speaker
Back to me. So I've done back to school horror movie wildcard and movie at the Thanksgiving scene. So I'm going to go with
00:23:05
Speaker
I'll go autumn vibes. Since Fantastic Mr. Fox was taken, i will select Good Will Hunting. I haven't seen it in a long time, but it's a classic.
00:23:16
Speaker
and And I think it's a classic for a reason. Really great movie. I'm going to say something. Here we go. I've never seen it. You should. It's like the cornerstone of Boston cinema.
00:23:29
Speaker
I've heard. Band of Departed. Yes, it's Departed. Boondock Saints. does Is this movie... Does this is movie we have like the chalkboard scene?
00:23:41
Speaker
Yeah. That's for like where everyone like memes it from. Yes. Matt Damon and Robin Williams. Yeah. Yeah. All right. Ben Affleck. Oh yeah.
00:23:52
Speaker
Can't forget about Ben Affleck. You like apples?
00:23:57
Speaker
No. Why do you like them apples? I said no. but You're not allowed to do that. you change your mind yet? Okay. Yeah. Uh, next selection will be, I'll go fall romance.
00:24:15
Speaker
Um, torn between two again
00:24:21
Speaker
I'll go with silver linings playbook. Oh, that's a good one. and I watched it. I like that pick. Yeah. I watched it like within the last year or two. it took me a long time, but I really liked it.
00:24:32
Speaker
It's a good movie. That one is um Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper. Bradley Cooper. Bradley Cooper. I've seen it, but maybe when it was released. So I can't, I don't really remember it. I don't know if I liked it or not, but I do. My favorite, my favorite part about it is they're like two of like the worst people.
00:24:53
Speaker
Yeah. they But it's still really endearing. if They're terrible. Imagine being around their characters. I was, it just like the insufferable couple. they know They're just like terrible.
00:25:04
Speaker
you know they're not They're people who have a lot of struggles. there's I don't think they're terrible. don't think they're bad. But they just have a lot of demons and it would be tiring to be around them.
00:25:16
Speaker
Agreed. For more than like five minutes.
00:25:21
Speaker
Sweet movie though. It's super sweet. And I think that's why it really hit home for me was it was like here are these two like air quote unlovable people and they kind of overcame the The gap between them.
00:25:35
Speaker
Oh, there's also some crazy sports gambling action in this movie. There's the reason he likes it. Same. Uncut gems level. Let's bet on it.
00:25:46
Speaker
Let's bet on it. Yeah. Great song. Shout out Zac Efron. Bet on it. Yeah. Just got it, dude. Real quick.
00:25:59
Speaker
That's the best song in all of the high school musical movies. it's I don't know if I can agree, but it's definitely top five. Easy.
00:26:09
Speaker
Bet on it is really good. Imagine bet on it being your like baseball walk-up song. It'd be like if I was a w WWE wrestler, that's what mine would be. By God, that's Malik's music.
00:26:23
Speaker
Bet on it, bet on it. He's coming.
00:26:28
Speaker
All right, my turn. Let's do back to school.
Disappointing Movie Theater Experiences
00:26:33
Speaker
And you know what? I had one listed here that I've talked about before.
00:26:39
Speaker
That's a movie that I love way more than the one that I'm going to pick. But for the sake of it and the sake of making discussion, going to pick this one. My back to school movie that I'm picking is back to school with Rodney Dangerfield.
00:26:54
Speaker
What is that? and It's a comedy. Okay. Old school comedy about Rodney Dangerfield. Who's like this multimillionaire. Um, and he's like, you know, he can do everything he wants. And then he realizes he never went to college.
00:27:10
Speaker
So he goes back to school and enrolls with his son, um, and is way more popular than the son and hijinks ensue.
00:27:20
Speaker
But Rodney Dangerfield is just like he's one of those like classic comedians, you know? Yeah. He had that club in New York. um is He was in Caddyshack and he's been all over the place. But I feel like it's a comedy from back in the day that just kind of gets swept under the rug. And I i enjoyed it.
00:27:40
Speaker
And it's fun. And there's a lot of just funny moments in it. Is Rodney Dangerfield his real name or stage name? Uh, I don't know. that's a pretty. That's an awesome last name.
00:27:55
Speaker
He was born Jacob Cohen. Oh, he was born in Babylon. What? Oh, Babylon, New York. movie Oh, if you if you look it up and there's like the the bar on the side of the yeah search engine, it just says born Babylon based.
00:28:15
Speaker
He's so old. He's. Thousands and thousands of years old. RDJ is in this movie. was scared that was going to happen. I kind of assumed from the picture I'm looking at right now. ah Robert Downey Jr. is in this movie.
00:28:33
Speaker
That's right. He is in it. Wow. Burt Young, Paxton Whitehead.
00:28:40
Speaker
All right. I'm going to go movie with a Thanksgiving scene. Like we were saying, there were not that many options here. There were options. There were some tangible options, but like plenty of them that I have not seen.
00:28:55
Speaker
And then I stumbled across one about 20 minutes before we started recording. And I was like, is that true? And sure enough, it is.
00:29:05
Speaker
So for my pick, I'm going prisoners. Oh, that's crazy. I know. That is crazy. I know. That's a crazy movie have at Thanksgiving. really is.
00:29:19
Speaker
So the movie opens up. It is Thanksgiving. The daughters go missing after the Thanksgiving dinner. Spoilers. Jeez, dude. It's like in the whole movie.
00:29:34
Speaker
So I confirmed it. I denied it. And then I accepted it. if you're If you go home for Thanksgiving this year, you need to put that on after everyone eats.
00:29:45
Speaker
And lock your doors. Yeah. From the inside. man. My dad got creeped out by that movie. He's like, as someone with kids, he's like, you don't understand it. He's like, that movie, he's like, I didn't like it. He's like, I thought it was really, really good. He's like, I didn't like sitting through it.
00:30:00
Speaker
I think I honestly feel like my mom said something
Discussion on Anime and One Piece
00:30:02
Speaker
similar as well. Yeah, it's pretty unsettling. Yeah. and that I think it's one of like the scarier non horror movies I've ever seen.
00:30:11
Speaker
ah It's pretty like it. I think it does a great job of making you like upset and uncomfortable at what's happening. I mean, i so I was watching the opening scene, and so they're cleaning up after after they're finished with Thanksgiving, and people are kind of like spread throughout the house.
00:30:26
Speaker
And Hugh Jackman, the father, he's going around just asking like like where the where the girls are. And it's it takes like three minutes to build up, but it's just like slowly building that tension. of just like like It was just perfectly executing like the slow panic that's like slowly starting to set over when you're like, oh shit.
00:30:45
Speaker
Where are they? like Oh shit. like that real Oh my god. Just the three minutes, I was like, fuck. I can't. I need to watch it. I don't know if I've seen it since it released.
00:30:57
Speaker
Hugh Jackman and Jake Gyllenhaal cooked so unbelievably hard in that movie. Insane performances from the both. Paul Dano. Paul Dano. So good. Yeah, I think that was my introduction to Paul Dano. Same.
00:31:09
Speaker
I'm like, this guy's a weirdo. Mine was ah There Will Be Blood. and i also oh yeah. yeah Dang. Alright, so that's my Thanksgiving scene. It's pretty cool. um for For my Hear Me Out,
00:31:27
Speaker
I'm doing this just to ruffle some feathers. I'm ready. And these feathers have already been ruffled pretty recently as well. they're They're falling out at this point, dude.
00:31:39
Speaker
With the 41% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes, my pick for the Hear Me Out, because this fell in ratings, but I fell in love with it.
00:31:50
Speaker
It's Star Wars The Last Jedi. Here we go.
00:31:55
Speaker
You're just gonna make Alex rage quit.
00:32:00
Speaker
Terrible. ba We've already had this We talked about this like three weeks ago, so I'll let things be as they are. my My feelings have become more entrenched since that conversation. Do you do you have a new stance that you can prop your opinion on, Malik, now that things have digested a little more?
00:32:21
Speaker
Like like you you firmly believe it's a good movie. Yes. I know it is. Do you have any, I guess, new arguments or anything to explain yourself?
00:32:37
Speaker
Like I'm in front of a judge? Yes. like I mean, they I think all the same points that I had from three weeks ago. Which were terrible.
00:32:50
Speaker
Not valid. so Expunged from the record. I'm valid. My feelings are valid. They are. They are. You are so valid and loved and cherished. Except for one tiny little bit of you.
00:33:05
Speaker
Big old butt. That loves The Last Jedi. Big old butt. Go ahead, Alex. Oh, ah forgot we're doing this.
00:33:17
Speaker
ah His eyes turn bloodshot red. um Oh, we only got two left. Okay. um I'll do my horror movie wild card and I'll save the one that's going to kill Tachi for last.
00:33:29
Speaker
Oh boy. ah Horror movie wild card. I saw this in middle school and it blew my mind. Opened my eyes to a world of foreign film that I didn't know existed. um And it's pretty creepy.
00:33:48
Speaker
The Orphanage. Yes. Spanish movie. 2011. So good. Tomas. Creepiest little guy in the history of creepy little guys. I don't
00:34:02
Speaker
know I've heard of it. That's a good one to watch. El Orfanato. Where would you rank it? ah Like within your your top Like your top five horror movies or what?
00:34:13
Speaker
Is that good? No. So funny enough, I actually rewatched it a couple years ago. Every October, I like to do a little like spooktober action and try and watch as many horror movies as I can.
00:34:24
Speaker
Yeah. I actually rewatched this and I didn't like it as much as the first time. Hmm. But it's still solid 4 out of 5, 8 out of 10. Okay. um I really enjoyed it.
00:34:35
Speaker
And maybe if I watched it a third time, my my view might change. um I would say it's per elite like definitely top 15. Okay. um But it's probably closer to top 10 than in the 15 bit.
00:34:53
Speaker
I really enjoyed it. um It is funny, though. like I go and like try and rank my top horror movies. and There are so many horror movies I've seen that I've just been like, this sucks. like Yeah. For a genre that I claim to like love more than others, I think a majority of the movies that I've seen from it are actually bad.
00:35:13
Speaker
But like here's here's the thing. like I've definitely seen like bad horror movies, but even the ones that I don't have like height like super highly rated, like a three, three and a half or whatever... Like, I still always have a pretty good time, regardless.
00:35:27
Speaker
And, like, when a horror movie is, like, also a good movie, that's just, like, striking. It's, like, striking gold. Yeah, I mean... know? So, when that doesn't happen, it's still fun.
00:35:37
Speaker
Like, Hereditary, great movie. You know, Train to Busan, great movie. The Exorcist, i think, is a really good movie. But you just kind of scroll down, and then you see, like, but what's going on in... ah
00:35:51
Speaker
going on in the visit like oh is that a shamalan yeah man i i re-watched the visit sometime last year because i hadn't seen it in a while and i was like jesus man this is not great what's going on in in the nun
00:36:13
Speaker
It's fun. I'm looking at it right now, actually, because I was like, where does this stack up in my top horror movies? And think a majority of the movie horror movies I've seen are either three and a half or three stars.
00:36:26
Speaker
Yeah, they're all
Final Draft Reflections
00:36:27
Speaker
kind of all kind of kind of sitting there. Just clumped in there, you know, was going to speaking Shaman. um Have you guys seen Signs anytime recently? Yeah, no, I need to.
00:36:38
Speaker
That's on the list, I think, for this year for Spooktober. That's another movie haven't seen probably since around the time it was released, but that made quite an imprint on me and I feel like I need to rewatch it.
00:36:51
Speaker
I watched it for the first time maybe four years ago. Okay. That is one I wish I watched when I was younger because of that scene. Yeah. but On the TV. Yeah. That's also a really funny scene for like a split second.
00:37:05
Speaker
Really freaked me out. I'm not going to lie. Joaquin Phoenix going like, what is he saying to the kids? He's like, move it out of the way. Yeah. Just like yelling from his living room.
00:37:19
Speaker
the ah The sister movie that I'll pair with The Orphanage before we move on is ah Devil's Backbone, ah directed by Guillermo del Toro.
00:37:31
Speaker
I don't know. like I watched those two really close to each other. I've always like associated them, even though Del Toro didn't ah direct the orphanage. He just, I think, produced it.
00:37:42
Speaker
um Del's Backbone is also pretty creepy. I just added that one to my watch list. Is it back to me? I think so. Yep. Okay. I think I've got... These are my final two picks, I believe.
00:37:55
Speaker
um So I've got Hear Me Out, and then the movie's release in September. So for the latter movies released in September.
00:38:06
Speaker
to Oh, I think I've chosen this before. Actually, maybe I can't get back to it.
00:38:17
Speaker
You can consult. Have I chosen rush hour before? I feel like I have. You have. Okay. Then I'll go something new. I'll go with Shang-Chi MCU movie.
00:38:28
Speaker
Um, I don't know. It's fun. i think it's pretty good. It's definitely one of the better ones post-ingame. And yeah, really cool. Some of the best fight choreography in the whole Marvel Cinematic Universe. So Yeah, and Asian representation is cool as well.
00:38:52
Speaker
Does make me excited for the whatever fight choreography we get in the new Spider-Man movie. Same. I am looking forward to that. we ah i actually had this conversation last night in my roommate because he finally watched Thunderbolts.
00:39:04
Speaker
Nice. And he was like, oh, I think it's the best one since Endgame. And then we went and looked. That's not a high bar to clear. It's not. It's a bit low bar to be one of the better ones since Endgame.
00:39:18
Speaker
and probably I'd probably say the same. And I don't think that's a crazy take. I mean, it could easily be top five in almost every person's list, or it should be, posting game.
00:39:33
Speaker
Guy who's number one posting the game is Quantumania.
00:39:38
Speaker
Could you imagine? Someone out there exists. i don't I don't want to imagine. If that's you and you're listening... Do I dare look up five-star Quantumania reviews? No.
00:39:49
Speaker
Your eyes will never be the same. Don't do it. That's not a side of the world you need to know. I gotta look.
Shout-Outs to Additional Films and Directors
00:39:55
Speaker
It's like the Ark of the Covenant.
00:39:59
Speaker
Ant-Man and the Wasp Quantumania. 20.6 thousand people. Put it at five? Yeah. i mean, it seems like a lot, but it can't be that Sort by...
00:40:13
Speaker
Review rating highest first. I guess it's just not too many. I mean, it made like a billion dollars. Yeah, it did. Right. think so. I don't know if it crossed a billion, but maybe worldwide. and Yeah, let's see what the.
00:40:26
Speaker
Oh, no, it did not. No. Oh, what was it? The box office for quantum mania was 476 million. okay still too much I mean, i feel like Marvel movies are like easily clearing 500 mail at the box office pre-COVID.
00:40:42
Speaker
Yeah. Like every single one of them, like even the not so great ones. I think this was like leaning towards the beginning of the end. Sure was. All right.
00:40:53
Speaker
So for my last pick, it is the Hear Me Out category. I'm going to go with Pirates of the Caribbean, Dead Man's Chest. I believe that's the second installment in the series.
00:41:05
Speaker
um That one's low like low- rated? Yeah. It's at 72% audience score, but 53% critics score Rotten Tomatoes. Wow. critics score ro to house Um, but I'm a pretty big fan of at least the first two to three movies.
00:41:22
Speaker
Um, first one's really iconic to me, but second one's just as fun. at least from what I can remember, but haven't watched these in a really long time. So dead man's chess. Is this the one with Davy Jones?
00:41:36
Speaker
Yes. Yeah, that gets brought up a lot, just the quality of cgi the CGI yeah and like how it still holds up it's really better than a lot of the CGI does today. It's crazy.
00:41:48
Speaker
I didn't realize that's still in Skarsgård's in those movies. Yeah. Isn't he Davy Jones? No, he's not Davy Jones. that No, he's Orlando Bloom's dad, right?
00:42:00
Speaker
Yeah. I know there's like some scenes that he's got like a bunch of like barnacles and everything like all over his skin. Yeah. He's, a I don't know, but Bill Nighy is Davy Jones.
00:42:12
Speaker
Bill Nighy. The octopus face. Yeah. Oh, he is, isn't he? Yeah. And he's got such a good voice in it, too. He does. I love Bill Nighy. That's crazy that it's got a 52%. Bill Nighy's the goat. Yeah.
00:42:23
Speaker
He's really cool. I want to meet him in public. I feel like
Episode Recap and Listener Engagement
00:42:26
Speaker
he'd be fun. I'd love to shake his hand. Shake your hand, Bill. Oh, Stellan Skodgård, his name is ah Bootstrap Bill Turner. Bootstrap Bill. Yeah.
00:42:39
Speaker
Man, now you got me wanting to rewatch the Pirates movies. Right? I think they're fun. i think they're better summer movies for sure. and never watched... Because how many are there total? like I think are five.
00:42:50
Speaker
I never saw the last two. Me neither. If I saw the fourth one, it was an accident. I don't think I saw the fourth one, but I saw the fifth one, the one with the Javier Bardem in it. Didn't even know.
00:43:03
Speaker
I saw that one in theaters for some reason. Do you regret it? Or is it just so unmemorable? I don't regret it. I, it was okay. Okay. Has there ever been a movie that you guys saw in theaters that you regretted?
00:43:16
Speaker
Yes. Really? In Cines of the Future. The Last Key was really bad. what was it? Insidious. The Last Key. It was like the fourth one was really bad. Um, I watched this Penelope Cruz movie like three years ago called Lemonista.
00:43:36
Speaker
And within like the first 10 minutes, I'm like, this is bad. And it didn't get any better. It was like two hours long. Oh, and I'll never leave a movie because it's like a like I paid for it. I'm getting my money's worth.
00:43:51
Speaker
Be like. always want to see things through the end, even if it's not good. was just like, why did I? Why did I do this? Stupid Alamo season passes.
00:44:04
Speaker
It doesn't. Yeah, it doesn't hurt as bad with the season pass. What about you, Tachi? What's one you regret going to see? Crimes of the Future. i think the last 30 minutes, I was physically on the edge of my seat.
00:44:19
Speaker
As soon as the screen cuts to black, I'm power walking out of the theater. i could not have left faster. i just, i hated it. I hated it so much, but I i stayed. and had to get my my money's worth.
00:44:37
Speaker
You're a trooper. Yeah. Can you really log it on Letterboxd if you haven't sat through the whole thing? No. No. Exactly. I think to have a valid opinion, you have to experience it ah fully.
00:44:50
Speaker
I agree. I agree with that. Oh, I hate it. I turned off after 10 minutes. Like, well, did you really hate it? right Yeah. Like, I don't have an opinion on John Wick 3 because I never finished it.
00:45:02
Speaker
It's it's one thing to turn it off like for anyone listening. It's like we're not talking about like turning it off because you saw something that it's like you couldn't sit with. Like something like really upset you, you know, so like that. We're not talking about that.
00:45:15
Speaker
Like that's valid. We're talking about if you're like this movie sucks, I'm going to watch something else like and then you're like, oh, it sucks. Like, no, like you didn't finish it, you know? So, yeah. Yeah, I think a really good example for me is K-pop Demon Hunters.
00:45:30
Speaker
First time I watched it, I watched the first five or ten minutes, hated it, turned it off. Oh, really? Gave it a second shot, and I love it. Oh, I didn't know that happened. Yeah, i started, um I need to finish this, but I started Spike Lee's highest to lowest.
00:45:46
Speaker
Okay. I think I talked about this. Yeah, we talked about this. We did, okay, yeah. Sorry, I won't go back to it, but yeah, not looking great. Okay.
00:45:57
Speaker
All right. Where are we at? ah Back to Alex for his final pick. To give this pick some context. um There's two bits of context that I wanted to highlight before I actually make it.
00:46:10
Speaker
The first was before we hit play on the recording button. um Tachi had made the wrong claim that he only goes for the blockbusters. and I said we said no that's not true because of XYZ.
00:46:24
Speaker
Um, but then I said, this movie that I'll pick for my September release will kill you as a joke. Um, if that's what you think. I also had made a joke about this specific film genre earlier in the week, uh, about showing a girl it on a date.
00:46:43
Speaker
Um, so with that said, for my September release, released September well of Or no, September 25th, 1994, for its U.S. theatrical release.
00:46:59
Speaker
going go with Abbas Kirastami's Through the Olive Trees. Huh? Never heard of it. An Iranian new ah new wave film.
00:47:10
Speaker
That is the third movie in a trilogy that is a very good trilogy, I think, but it's a very like meta. You kind of need to watch all three to get it. It's very meta. um I won't really go into it more than that, but I, this is three. the ol trees is personally my favorite.
00:47:26
Speaker
of the trilogy. I think all of them are very good. They're all beautifully shot. I mean, just every frame of painting type movies. Um, and it's super cool to see like the Iranian countryside.
00:47:39
Speaker
Uh, these are all filmed in like rural Iran, but this one kind of has like fall vibes. Like, I don't know if it takes place during the fall or not, but it, and I don't know what fall in Iran looks like, but,
00:47:53
Speaker
I had to guess it it would be like through the olive trees. And then just randomly, I was like.
00:48:00
Speaker
was scrolling through the list of um September releases, and I'm like. I guess sucks. Like what's the most off the wall one I can pick for this draft that will guarantee me to lose the poll we do on on Instagram.
00:48:15
Speaker
And this was new wave cinema pick. This was the first one I looked up and it was out of September release date. You know, I respect the pics like these that you do because not only does it let me add things to my watch list, but you're really in this for the arts, not the charts.
00:48:29
Speaker
you You got to add all three, though. You got to start with where is the friend's house and then life and nothing more and then through the olive trees. All right. It's definitely commendable. I ah really haven't seen that many foreign films at all.
00:48:43
Speaker
I think I've probably only seen a handful in the last like five years. I mean, we've discussed it to do a foreign month. Yeah. um'm I'm a huge advocate of foreign cinema. Yeah. I will push it to as many people as I possibly can. It's it's It's a way you can see the world through your television set.
00:49:03
Speaker
For sure. um And i I think that's super valuable. Yeah. um Whenever we do that month, we're delegating the picks to you. Cultured King. Yes, sir.
00:49:14
Speaker
Is this my last pick? I believe it is. Yes. All right. To round us off for the fall draft, my last category is back to school movies. And I'm going to go with one that I just love. I'm going to with School of Rock.
00:49:27
Speaker
Good one. it's great. I think we talked about it recently, but Jack Black is being Jack Black, but this is when it was acceptable.
00:49:38
Speaker
There was homeless. There was, um, when I was in seventh or eighth grade, I was in theater class and one of my favorite projects, I think it was like an end of the year, like group project that we had to do, but it was just to pick a movie scene with like our group of like four or five, pick a movie scene, like five minutes or less, and then do it for the class. Like that's our end of the year project.
00:50:02
Speaker
and we picked school of rock when he it's like his second or third day and he's starting to like realize it's like okay like i can make a band with these kids and he's giving all the kids their instruments and teaching them how to play what is it and is it an acdc song ah darren dar and probably i don't know i don't know who it's by but they when he's giving them the instruments in the class yeah yeah yeah And so we did just that because it's like we had we had a guitar.
00:50:28
Speaker
ah We had a keyboard like accessible and so everyone like had their role and it was just a lot of fun. And i I think of that fondly. So I'm picking School of Rock for for my final pick.
00:50:40
Speaker
Nice. Good pick. Love it. It's also like I feel like that's always like baby's first Linklater film. It is baby's first Linklater. And I'm not saying that in like a derogatory way. It's just, feel like that is almost everyone's first link later film.
00:50:53
Speaker
Yeah. And they don't realize he did it until after. I didn't realize it was link later for quite a while. Like at least in the last 10 years is when I found out, I was like, Oh, makes sense though.
00:51:06
Speaker
I don't know that Miranda Cosgrove, Richard link later crossover.
00:51:12
Speaker
We need it again. hey I mean there, maybe he'll be the director for the I Carly movie. slate you imagine That would be insane. Starts filming next year.
00:51:26
Speaker
Who is the craziest director they could attach to that project? Scorsese.
00:51:32
Speaker
Cronenberg. Cronenberg. Cronenberg's iCarly. Any of the Cronenbergs. i I'd love to see a Shyamalan iCarly movie. Freddy was dead the whole time. No.
00:51:49
Speaker
Flashbacks of the camera just floating. um Any pics that you guys didn't do that you wanted to shout out?
00:52:02
Speaker
Yeah, I'm going to shout out for fall autumn vibes. This one is crazy. um But it's a lot in last episode that we filmed because they're releasing in some crazy order that I wasn't aware of until Tuesday when last episode dropped. But you guys are talking about Demon Slayer movie.
00:52:23
Speaker
Yeah. And when when I saw the fall vibes, I had like this Ratatouille, like take a bite of the Ratatouille moment. where I remembered that one of the Bleach movies, don't know if you guys ever watched Bleach. um One of the Bleach movies, the one called Memories of Nobody, has in incredible autumn vibes.
00:52:50
Speaker
Have you seen it, Tachi? I haven't seen any of the Bleach movies, but I've watched the show and I've read the whole manga. For some reason, this... this And it's, I remember it being animated very well, this movie. And like, it stuck out like such a sore thumb to me because all the other Bleach movies, well, there's a fifth one that I haven't seen, but at the time there were four.
00:53:13
Speaker
All four of them were just like really long Bleach episodes. This one was also a really long Bleach episode, but like really cinematic. Like the art direction was so different. Yeah, it was just like the vibe was like very like melancholy, like did I think it captured the fall feeling really well. And I'm i'm almost scared to go rewatch it because i know it'll be just like another anime movie.
00:53:40
Speaker
the Someone cooked. But maybe not. Maybe it is like an actual hidden masterpiece somewhere. and i mean, I love to bleach and I'm actually probably due for a rewatch because the last time I watched it was like high school.
00:53:53
Speaker
um Bleach is awesome. Like, I'm not saying it isn't, but. I almost kind of want to go back and see if like, did this movie really cook that hard? You should. No harm in doing that.
00:54:06
Speaker
I'm scared. If you don't watch the movie, I think you should catch up on the show because the ah thousand year blood war arc has been airing last couple years and it's animated really, really beautifully.
00:54:19
Speaker
Bleach is still on. Yeah. It just came back. it took a super long hiatus. Oh, okay. Oh, geez. Okay. Did you rewatch it, Malik? I got snippets of it. i don't know that I don't know it in its entirety, but like whenever I was younger is when I was a bit more into anime and Bleach was there.
00:54:36
Speaker
Honestly, you could probably like skip... If you were to go rewatch it and when I rewatch I'll probably do this. I'll probably skip all of like the filler arcs. yeah They're way too long.
00:54:47
Speaker
like the one with like I remember the one with like the bounce would not end. it's like I did not care. And there's like... Maybe one thing that matters like in the grand scheme of it.
00:55:00
Speaker
But some of the fights in Bleach are just incredible. For sure. Are y'all One Piece fans? Yes. No. Yeah. i want I want to get into it. I do too. Please.
00:55:10
Speaker
But I'm scared. it there's Where am I supposed to start? I'm almost waiting for when they do the reboot. i
00:55:20
Speaker
You've been watching it for a long time, Tachi? Yeah. I kind of want to say just wait. But i think I think you should just take the journey What do you mean wait for a reboot? There's a reboot. So there's another, ah anime studio who's going to start one piece from the beginning really with a whole different staff. So the art's going different.
00:55:45
Speaker
Uh, it's going to be a lot faster paced, but I don't know. i think I'm a huge one piece fan boy. I've been converted the first time i watched the first hundred episodes. Like I really tried.
00:55:58
Speaker
And I quit. I come back like a year two later. After a hundred. Yeah. I come back at like a year or two later. a start again. And then something just clicks and I love it.
00:56:11
Speaker
I love one piece and I will never, i will never not recommend it. It is daunting of course, yeah but you will love these characters. You will love the story.
00:56:25
Speaker
You will love the themes. and starting selling it so hard yeah is you're cooking tachi you're cooking and if you if you watch the show made by uh toei t-o-e-i um starting with the wano arc which is very very far in the story the, um, the art direction changes and the animation quality is really vastly improved and the fights are just a whole new level.

Speaker
I've got a few then. ah My other back to school choice was Easy A. Really fun comedy. I had that on my list. ah The other fall romance was Little Women.
00:58:33
Speaker
It's not really that romantic, but there's some romantic aspects. um And then i didn't really know where to place this, but Dead Post Society was just a good autumn vibes movie.
00:58:44
Speaker
Yeah, I think you think that's a staple. yeah The other ones that I had were...
00:58:52
Speaker
Oh, um, so for back to school movies, I had everybody wants some. And then in case all of mine got picked, I had two bangers lined up to pull out of the, debt the car, uh, the car deck.
00:59:08
Speaker
And for movies with a Thanksgiving scene, it was Charlie Brown Thanksgiving. Oh yeah. And then for fall vibes, it was just the great pumpkin, Charlie Brown.
00:59:20
Speaker
Nice. You can't go wrong with them. They they are so good. Honestly, they're like they just they never get old.
00:59:30
Speaker
Isn't Charlie Brown Thanksgiving like 30 minutes? Does that count? They're all like 30 minutes. Charlie Brown Christmas is like 30 minutes. counts? Is it like a short? Yeah, why not? right
00:59:42
Speaker
They're so good. The the watercolor background and the funky jazz soundtrack, it's just... They're cooking. Nothing hits like them. Shout out Snoopy and the Peanuts. They've somehow stayed pretty relevant.
00:59:56
Speaker
it's It's genuinely impressive. It is. um I know I had Napoleon Dynamite for back to school movies. I thought about one. I think I had Grease. The 40-year-old high scores.
01:00:08
Speaker
Bro, it's so crazy. Tell me more. I loved that movie as a kid and rewatching it as an adult. You're just like, there's no way. Yeah. No. Like, did people think this when it was released, like the adults of that time, or they just like, what is this?
01:00:22
Speaker
I mean, maybe everyone's cigarettes. So maybe they look like that in their early twenties, mid twenties. Maybe. We used to be a proper society. Yeah.
01:00:34

01:01:10
Speaker
Oh, God. Oh, we gotta to add that one to our watch party. You know what's also a horror slash autumn vibes movie? It's The Strangers.
01:01:22
Speaker
Yes. It is. Right? It's got like like the orange tint to it. It does feel cozy in the beginning. Did you guys see this the trailer for the new strangers?
01:01:33
Speaker
No. I don't think so. Because I haven't watched the the rebooted one because I heard it was bad. Awful. It looks bad? Yeah, I was forced to sit through it like Clockwork Orange style before we saw a Long Walk.
01:01:47
Speaker
That's a shame. Oh, we were late. Yeah, you guys were late. You didn't see it. I'm sitting here watching it and it's like the first like three seconds are like, oh, this could be good.
01:01:58
Speaker
And then like I realized what it was and then it's just it plummeted. And it's supposed to be like a trilogy, isn't it? Yeah, I don't know who asked for it. I don't know. Like, leave it alone.
01:02:08
Speaker
I feel like it's The Strangers is perfectly fine on its own. Agreed. That movie terrified me. I was locking my door. That was freaky. For years.
