And then, of course, that thing happens immediately.
00:01:23
tommy cresta
And then, of course, that thing happens.
00:01:25
Ryan
So it's it's one of those movies.
00:01:25
tommy cresta
it's It's one of those movies.
00:01:26
tommy cresta
But, you know, he had carry a lot of people there. He had to make some cool cars making loud noises.
00:01:26
Ryan
But, you know, you get charismatic people in there and you get so make some cool cars making loud noises.
00:01:32
Ryan
It's it's fun to watch. Yeah, was still really entertaining.
00:01:34
tommy cresta
Yeah, it was still really entertained. like
00:01:35
Ryan
From the beginning to the end, I was really really...
00:01:36
tommy cresta
From beginning to end, every race was really cool.
00:01:38
tommy cresta
and John Kaczynski is now just an awesome director.
00:01:39
Ryan
John Kaczynski now, which is an awesome director.
00:01:42
tommy cresta
he We saw with Top Gun Maverick, what he did with those cameras, and he did again with this.
00:01:42
Ryan
I was thinking of how the fabric did those cameras. He did get a look. I was again, just before he was saying...
00:01:46
tommy cresta
It was, again, just as cool to see.
00:01:48
tommy cresta
i don't know much about F1 except Lewis Hamilton.
00:01:48
Ryan
I don't want to find out. F1 is pretty technical thing.
00:01:51
tommy cresta
That's like all I know.
00:01:51
tommy cresta
Also, it's Kaczynski.
00:01:51
Ryan
Also, it's Joseph Kaczynski.
00:01:54
Ryan
i think you're thinking of John
Realism in Driving Scenes: Did Brad Pitt Hit High Speeds?
00:01:55
tommy cresta
Kaczynski and then Joseph Kaczynski.
00:01:58
tommy cresta
But yeah, I never really knew anything about F1. all As I just said, all I knew about it was
00:01:58
Ryan
But yeah, I never heard of him before.
00:02:05
tommy cresta
um Lewis Hamilton, who's the goat of the sport.
00:02:06
Ryan
Yeah, you have somebody in front of the car. You build, like, four-two-three.
00:02:09
tommy cresta
But just watching the press around this film and watching them talk about it, they both were driving in a lot of the scenes, which I didn't know.
00:02:11
Ryan
Yeah. Mm-hmm. but trial yeah
00:02:16
tommy cresta
I thought they were late to see, not CGI, but like, you know how they did Top Gun where they're not actually flying.
00:02:20
Ryan
ahead yeah you have somebody in the front of the car you build like
00:02:22
tommy cresta
so Yeah, but it's really hard to do that with the F1 cars.
00:02:26
tommy cresta
But a lot of times when their visors are down, it's not them. But... Yeah.
00:02:29
Ryan
And I'm sure they had him driving and then sped up the camera.
Box Office Success and Comparisons to Other Films
00:02:32
Ryan
But they're not letting Brad Pitt go 200, 300 miles an hour.
00:02:36
tommy cresta
Did you see him in the interview when they asked him?
00:02:38
tommy cresta
He was like, ask me if I got up to 300.
00:02:40
tommy cresta
And he's like, no, I got to like 220.
00:02:42
Ryan
So, I mean, they were still coming.
00:02:44
tommy cresta
They let him take out Lewis Hamilton's car and do it.
00:02:49
tommy cresta
just like He's like, I didn't get that close.
00:02:52
tommy cresta
So they were still, I mean, even if you're doing 100, it's got to feel crazy.
00:02:57
Ryan
Yeah, you're just sitting in a rocket ship.
00:02:57
tommy cresta
yeah The rain was terrifying, first off.
00:03:00
tommy cresta
I never thought, I thought they weren't allowed to race in the rain.
00:03:00
Ryan
I never thought I'd go up.
00:03:02
Ryan
They run rocket ship.
00:03:03
tommy cresta
I don't know why my brain went there.
00:03:05
Ryan
No. But that was insane.
00:03:06
tommy cresta
But that was insane because it's all over their face because there's no windshield for them like ah like a normal car.
00:03:07
Ryan
All over the world. Yeah. It's an open-air rocket ship.
00:03:12
tommy cresta
It's an open-air rocket it It really is.
00:03:14
tommy cresta
It just goes.
00:03:14
Ryan
no But yeah, it's super fun to do.
00:03:16
tommy cresta
But, yeah, it was really cool to watch. It's super fun. As Ryan said, you've seen this movie a hundred times. it doesn't matter what sport you're talking about. You've seen this movie.
00:03:24
tommy cresta
But those movies don't Brad Pitt in it.
00:03:27
Ryan
That's the big deal.
00:03:27
tommy cresta
That's the big difference between all of them.
00:03:30
tommy cresta
And I love Damien Idris. I've talked about him.
00:03:33
Ryan
20 times on the show.
00:03:34
tommy cresta
20 times on the show for Snowfall.
00:03:35
Ryan
But it was cool to see
00:03:36
tommy cresta
But i was cool to see him finally. He talked about it. first time he ever got to use his actual accent for the project. Because he's always played an American. and And he was awesome. I thought he was really charismatic.
00:03:47
Ryan
And he was also a great author.
00:03:47
tommy cresta
He fits. He's a great opposite to Brad Pitt's character, even though they really are the same.
00:03:50
Ryan
They really like the same. Just wanted to be content.
00:03:54
tommy cresta
Just one's young.
00:03:55
Ryan
Yeah, in some ways. yeah
00:03:56
tommy cresta
Yeah, like they're both very, when they're young, they're very very cocky, arrogant. They think they know exactly how they should be doing something. But I enjoyed myself. It's the perfect like summer quote-unquote blockbuster.
00:04:11
tommy cresta
It debuted at $145 million. dollars so Biggest but box office of Brad Pitt's career to open up.
00:04:17
Ryan
Fuck, I was just going to say I doubt this movie is going to make anything.
00:04:17
tommy cresta
I was just going to say, I doubt he was going to make anything.
00:04:21
tommy cresta
Brad Pitt pulls in the money.
00:04:22
Ryan
there I'm not good at guessing money
00:04:23
tommy cresta
I'm not guess money.
The Charisma of Brad Pitt: What Keeps Audiences Coming?
00:04:24
tommy cresta
I'm not going to guess it.
00:04:24
Ryan
I'm not good at guessing if movie is going to be good or not.
00:04:27
tommy cresta
Every time he was giving a dog shit.
00:04:27
Ryan
Every time I'm like, the movie is going to be dog shit and phenomenal.
00:04:30
tommy cresta
What was the one I called months ago that was...
00:04:33
tommy cresta
You were like, every trailer, you're like, this is to terrible.
00:04:35
tommy cresta
mean, Civil War, but that was last year. Civil War was when you really...
00:04:39
tommy cresta
And I really that movie.
00:04:39
Ryan
And then I really liked that movie. Yeah. yeah I think was that.
00:04:41
tommy cresta
Yeah, but it was your second movie of the year. think
00:04:44
Ryan
I think it was third fourth. I don't remember.
00:04:46
tommy cresta
it don't know was.
00:04:46
Ryan
It may have been second. I don't remember.
00:04:47
tommy cresta
I just knew it was right up there, and it was just funny after a year of being like, this movie's going dog shit. yeah
00:04:52
Ryan
ah Yeah, I thought it was going to be bad.
00:04:54
tommy cresta
What else? The first one was Avatar.
00:04:55
Ryan
The worst one was an Avatar. i was like, movies. Nobody's going care.
00:04:57
tommy cresta
we were both at least on that one.
00:04:58
Ryan
It's not going to break like $700, $2 billion later.
00:04:59
tommy cresta
This movie's not coming close. not going break like 700.
00:05:03
Ryan
two billion dollars later
00:05:04
tommy cresta
Billion dollars later.
00:05:07
tommy cresta
Biggest movie of all time.
00:05:09
tommy cresta
Biggest sequel of all the time.
00:05:11
tommy cresta
Unless you count... Do you count Endgame as a sequel?
00:05:13
tommy cresta
Is that just a...
00:05:14
Ryan
I mean, seeing as how it takes place directly after the movie previous to it.
00:05:14
tommy cresta
I mean, seeing as how it takes place, frankly, after a movie previous to it.
00:05:18
tommy cresta
Yeah. no, it doesn't. There's five years.
00:05:21
Ryan
After the opening, which is fucking 20 minutes after that.
00:05:21
tommy cresta
After the opening. I'm trying to think of other movies we really were bad with.
00:05:30
tommy cresta
I mean, Elvis was the one that laid an apology on the show for.
00:05:35
Ryan
Yeah, which is an okay movie, but...
00:05:35
tommy cresta
yeah which is an
00:05:36
tommy cresta
Yeah, but you thought it was going be like a 30.
00:05:37
Ryan
Awesome Butler was good. You thought
00:05:41
tommy cresta
My mom tried to watch The Great Gatsby the remake.
00:05:41
Ryan
My mom said it was a great Gatsby relationship.
00:05:45
tommy cresta
It's so hard to watch.
00:05:46
tommy cresta
It's so weirdly filmed.
00:05:47
tommy cresta
so baz which It does kind of fit for The Great Gatsby.
00:05:48
Ryan
Everything. Which it does kind of fit for Greg Gatsby.
00:05:51
tommy cresta
For the party scenes, but not like the other scenes.
00:05:54
tommy cresta
Yeah, my mom turned it off.
00:05:55
tommy cresta
She hated it The original one's better anyway.
00:05:59
tommy cresta
Robert Redford.
00:06:01
tommy cresta
That's Gatsby.
00:06:02
Ryan
Even though Leo's not a Gatsby.
00:06:02
tommy cresta
Even though Leo is the only guy that could have played Gatsby in the
00:06:07
tommy cresta
But, yeah, Brad Pitt just continues to prove that no matter if 61 40, he's going to do the same thing.
00:06:07
Ryan
But yeah, Brad good music.
00:06:14
tommy cresta
He's going to pull in

00:06:17
Ryan

00:06:18
Ryan
Yeah. Even though this is, don't think you had to try at all for this character.
00:06:19
tommy cresta
even though this is... I don't think you have to try it all for this character.
00:06:22
Ryan
It was just the most, um it was Sonny Hayes?
00:06:22
tommy cresta
It was just the most... This is just Brad Pitt. sunny Was it Sonny Hayes? Sonny Hayes.
00:06:26
Ryan

00:06:26
tommy cresta
Yeah, it's just... I've seen this a thousand fucking times.
00:06:30
Ryan
Anybody can pull off this character, but at the same time, Brad Pitt's just charismatic, so.
00:06:30
tommy cresta
Anybody can pull off this character. But at the same time, Brad Pitt's just charismatic.
00:06:35
tommy cresta

00:06:35
Ryan

00:06:42
Ryan
Some of them are so goofy. The hot dog one like right above him is goofy.
00:06:45
tommy cresta
so just You could tell he was hammered.
00:06:46
Ryan
You can tell he was hammered.
00:06:47
tommy cresta
Now, it was probably a bet.

Ryan
No, it was probably a bet. He's like, I'm out of money.
00:06:48
tommy cresta
He's like, I'm out money.
00:06:49

00:07:00
Ryan
He wanted to see his body get mangled.
00:07:01
tommy cresta

00:07:05
Ryan
That made me laugh every time they went to you know old footage 30 years ago.
00:07:05
tommy cresta
That made me laugh every time they went to old footage 30 years ago.
00:07:09
Ryan
It's just Brad Pitt in a wig.
00:07:09
tommy cresta
It's just Brad Pitt in a wig.
00:07:11
tommy cresta
He's definitely de-aged up.
00:07:14
tommy cresta
He looks like, what's it called?
00:07:14
Ryan
Maybe they tried. I didn't notice.
00:07:15
tommy cresta
I didn't notice.
00:07:16
Ryan
It looked the same to me, just with a long-haired blonde wig on.
00:07:16
tommy cresta
It looked the same to me, just with long-haired plumb. Because he did look a lot like how he looks in Benjamin Button.
00:07:22
tommy cresta
so That's why I thought it was made de-aged, because it has that like super smooth look to the skin.
00:07:26
Ryan
i don't know I feel like that was just the can't like graininess of the camera.
00:07:26
tommy cresta
i feel like that
00:07:30
tommy cresta
Yeah, it really is Brad Pitt in a wig, though. Because it's definitely him.
00:07:32
tommy cresta
It's not someone else.
00:07:33
Ryan
but No, it is Brad Pitt, but it was just so funny seeing him try to make him look younger.
00:07:33

tommy cresta
And the guy says, Mouse, fuck you.
00:09:30
Ryan

00:09:34
tommy cresta
I swear Brad Pitt says it.
00:09:35
Ryan

Ryan
I'm trying to think. Any...
00:09:43
tommy cresta
so yeah But yeah, I'm trying to think.
00:09:46
tommy cresta
Any B-tier sports film is this movie.
00:09:48
Ryan
B-tier sports. Yeah. This one's just...
00:09:52
tommy cresta
This one's just F1. It's the
00:09:54
Ryan
It's the same cookie cutter, just old kind of washed up guy comes in, teaches the new young hotshot.
Comparisons to Gran Turismo: A Different Underdog Story
00:10:00
Ryan
It's the same thing you've seen a billion times.
00:10:00
tommy cresta
the same thing you've seen It was cool, though.
00:10:03
tommy cresta
I was i was fully invested.
00:10:03
Ryan
Yeah, it was cool. Those types of movies are made or broken by how good the action is.
00:10:05
tommy cresta
Those types of movies are made or broken by how good the action is.
00:10:09
tommy cresta
And the action was good this.
00:10:09
Ryan
And the action was good in this.
00:10:10
tommy cresta
The racing was fun.
00:10:11
tommy cresta
It was all real.
00:10:13
Ryan
You could see it all happening.
00:10:13
tommy cresta
You see it all happening.
00:10:14
Ryan
It's, you know, it's fast.
00:10:16
Ryan
You're you're into it.
00:10:16
tommy cresta
You're into it.
00:10:18
tommy cresta
Yeah, the racing is definitely more intense in this than is in Gran Turismo.
00:10:23
tommy cresta
But I think I liked Gran Turismo more than liked this.
00:10:24
Ryan
i's see I think maybe a little bit. Yeah. he's gone cause i
00:10:28
tommy cresta
Even though I like the actors in this more, but David Harbour is the best performance in both of the movies.
00:10:33
tommy cresta
Yeah, I think Gran Turismo, I think i liked it little bit better because it was more like underdog story.
00:10:33
Ryan
Yeah. I think Gran Turismo, I think I liked it a little bit better because it was a more like underdog story. You know, this was like...
00:10:38
tommy cresta
Yeah, and it's a true story, which makes it even better.
00:10:40
Ryan
Yeah, And this was like, you could kind of say it's an underdog a little bit, just because Brad Pitt's washed up, but he was still the best racer.
00:10:41
tommy cresta
And this was like, you could kind of say it's not underdog whatever, just because Brad Fitz watched that, but was still... They still said he was great at what ah what what he did.
00:10:48
Ryan
Yeah, they still said he was great, and you see at the beginning of the movie, he wins a race.
00:10:48
tommy cresta
they still said was great, and you see him
00:10:51
Ryan
So he's not he's not an underdog at all.
00:10:52
tommy cresta
so he's not hes said
00:10:53
tommy cresta
yeah old guy who knows what's
00:10:53
Ryan
He's just, you know, the old guy who knows what he's doing that comes in.
00:10:57
tommy cresta
think great and so
00:10:57
Ryan
and think Gran Turismo was, I'd say, it maybe a little bit better.
00:11:00
tommy cresta
Yeah, which is I feel like would definitely be a hot take.
00:11:02
tommy cresta
But yeah i think the
Actors' Performances and Comedic Moments
00:11:05
tommy cresta
this but what you're saying, like these kind movies are carried by the performances.
00:11:09
Ryan
Not even performance, just the charisma.
00:11:09
tommy cresta
like They may be believable and enjoyed. Just the charisma.
00:11:13
Ryan
It just depends on the actor.
00:11:13
tommy cresta
It just depends on the actor. That's what I mean. like how like Can you attach to these characters?
00:11:15
Ryan
Yeah. If you get somebody who's a great actor and they just nail the performance, that's great.
00:11:16
tommy cresta
you get somebody who's a great actor and the performance, that's great.
00:11:21
Ryan
If they're not fun to watch, then the movie's over.

00:18:14
Ryan
Jesus. Are you one of the people in the crowd?
00:18:14
tommy cresta
Well, because he's the one that he was chasing during the crash, right?

00:18:32
tommy cresta
I wonder if you think he's actually doing the driving...
00:18:34
tommy cresta
Oh, i guess.
00:18:35
Ryan
wonder if it was him driving his car.
00:18:36
tommy cresta
but Jerry Brucker said some of the scenes are the actual, like, like the racers on the racetrack. Ruckheimer's a crazy dude. he loves He loves his like live, no CGI, practical filmmaking.
00:18:45

00:18:50
tommy cresta
Ruckheimer's that dude.

00:18:52
Ryan
it nice but yeah they um they keep doing it if it's done
00:18:59
tommy cresta
i was like, oh shit, that's his production company.
00:19:02
tommy cresta
But yeah, they keep you entertained for a movie that i feel like if it's done poorly, it could have been such a drag.
00:19:10
tommy cresta
Which I will say, personally, Howard,
00:19:10
Ryan
It could have been way draggy. Which I will say, at the first like hour, not even less than hour, but the first 45 minutes.
00:19:13
tommy cresta
what We're trying to get, like, Galen.
00:19:16
Ryan
but Yeah, when you're getting into it, I was like, okay, this is a two and a half hour movie? God damn. i yeah so
00:19:21
tommy cresta
I did not know this was two and a half hours. I still didn't know, and that ah flew by for me, actually. i feel like mike Yeah, I like the opening with him.
00:19:25
Ryan
I feel like when it gets to like that but it gets past the first act, then it really starts. Yeah, it was cool.
00:19:32
tommy cresta
Like, him getting ready and going to racing.
00:19:33
Ryan
Yeah. it was cool like
00:19:35
tommy cresta
I like when, like, he really, the racing starts picking up that, like...
00:19:39
Ryan
it definitely picks up momentum it keeps you way more locked in yeah
00:19:43
tommy cresta
And then the final race, I was like, I'm like, I know how this is going to end.
00:19:48
tommy cresta
Like, I'm still like locked in
00:19:51
tommy cresta
And of course, it has some crazy underdog moment that like, you're not, you don't know what's going to, you're like, oh, this never happens.
00:19:59
tommy cresta
But it happened now when they need it the most.
00:20:02
tommy cresta
But yeah, and then there's a little like side villain that gets thrown in the third act.
00:20:11
tommy cresta
Had no idea it was
00:20:14
tommy cresta
Tobias Menzies.

Dude, that movie got so, that movie had such a great first act.
00:31:29
Ryan
That would be Yeah. and so
00:31:32
tommy cresta
And second act.
00:31:32
Ryan
The second act was good.
00:31:33
tommy cresta
Because in the woods was really cool with the play and stuff, which was wild.
00:31:37
tommy cresta
And then the third act
00:31:37
Ryan
The third act was just so fucking weird.
00:31:41
tommy cresta
Yeah, I forgot about the big penis.

tommy cresta
Oh, it is his dad. Fuck. Um... I was about to write down.
00:31:51
tommy cresta
Oh, is it called Cult Stealing, the new Austin Bolton movie?
00:31:54

00:31:56
Ryan

00:32:01
tommy cresta
Oh yeah, we just got the trailer for.
00:32:01
Ryan
that was yeah yeah that trailer looked fun it looked uh you know yeah i don't it didn't look like a full comedy it looked like kind of like you know yeah yeah it looked like a dramedy like you know more than just comedic relief yeah
00:32:02
tommy cresta
I just hope it's serious enough. yeah i think
00:32:13
tommy cresta
There's scenes where he's crying in the trailers. Yeah, little bit.
00:32:20
tommy cresta
Yeah. Yeah, so we got we got a lot coming up recently now. I F1 was a weird movie to review. because It's because we've reviewed this movie on the podcast, I feel like, 20 times.
00:32:29
Ryan
Yeah, Gran Turismo was the most recent one.
00:32:31
tommy cresta
Yeah, we late just did that last year.
00:32:33
tommy cresta
And it's just any of these sports movies, it's hard to review like this.
00:32:33
Ryan
Yeah. I don't think it is.
00:32:36
tommy cresta
You know what we should do? We should Rocky rewatch.
00:32:39
tommy cresta
I love Rocky. Even though you think Creed 1 and 2 are better than most Rocky movies.
00:32:46
tommy cresta
It's a crazy, crazy take.
00:32:48
Ryan
little think it is i think
00:32:49
tommy cresta
I think that's a wild...
00:32:51
tommy cresta
Rocky 2 and Rocky Balboa are better than all of Creed's.
00:33:00
tommy cresta
Yo, you better watch your mouth right there.
00:33:02
tommy cresta
Balboa. Balboa is the second best Rocky movie.
00:33:07
tommy cresta
I stand by It's my favorite Rocky.
00:33:08
Ryan
So what do you go? Two, Balboa, one?
00:33:11
tommy cresta
Balboa 1, 4, 3, 5.
00:33:11
Ryan
one Wow. three, five.
00:33:13
tommy cresta
or three five
00:33:15
Ryan
Where do you put the Creeds in there?
00:33:19
tommy cresta
2, Balboa, Creed 1, Rocky 1, Creed 2.
00:33:25
tommy cresta
And then the rest the Rockies. And Creed 3 somewhere above 5.
00:33:30
tommy cresta
That's not crazy. and
00:33:32
tommy cresta
How's that wild?
00:33:33
Ryan
Creed is really fucking good.
00:33:33
tommy cresta
is really So we're the first two Rocky movies and the last Rocky movie.
00:33:38
tommy cresta
The last Rocky movie is heartbreaking.
00:33:38
Ryan
What do you put grudge match in there?
00:33:40
tommy cresta
It's got the best scene in whole franchise.
00:33:49
tommy cresta
not the line.
00:33:51
Ryan
what do you put grudge match in there
00:33:53
tommy cresta
That's not a Rocky movie.
00:33:54
Ryan
Well, apparently by your metrics, if we do a Days of Thunder and F1 movie, that would be, you know, be in that cinematic universe.
00:33:54
tommy cresta
Well, apparently, by your degree, except when you would dance a player at one movie, it would be...
00:34:01
Ryan
No, it's not Rocky and Raging Bull.
00:34:01
tommy cresta
No, because it's not Rocky Balboa in Grudge Match.
00:34:03
Ryan
It's the same fucking thing.
00:34:04
tommy cresta
No, it's not!
00:34:05
tommy cresta
It's literally Rocky in movie.
00:34:05
Ryan
It's literally Rocky and Raging Bull. That's what that movie is.
00:34:07
tommy cresta
That's what that but it's not.
00:34:08
Ryan
know, it's not. It's the same guy.
00:34:11
tommy cresta
He's not Southpaw in that movie.
00:34:14
tommy cresta
so Italian Stallion, dude.
00:34:18
Ryan
pulling out fucking terminology on me. South Carolina.
00:34:21
tommy cresta
Southpaw means left-handed.
00:34:22
Ryan
I know what it means.
00:34:22
tommy cresta
If you didn't realize that from baseball...
00:34:23
Ryan
No, know what it means.
00:34:25
tommy cresta
I'm not watching anymore.
00:34:27
tommy cresta
I just got my alert.
00:34:28
Ryan
Yeah, I'm getting the alerts. Yeah.
00:34:32
tommy cresta
Yeah, go see F1.
00:34:33
tommy cresta
It's a really fun time.
00:34:34
tommy cresta
If you like these kind of movies, you will love this movie.
00:34:36
tommy cresta
If you love Brad Pitt, you'll love this movie.
00:34:38
tommy cresta
It's just a really fun movie. It has a really enjoyable cast and great chemistry. Just a really fun time.
00:34:44
tommy cresta
and I mean, it's really cool seeing the racing from that perspective because you'll never get that you're just watching from a screen.
00:34:50
Ryan
Yeah. The craziest shit was the, ah I mean, I know how expensive F1 is, but even seeing the worst team on the circuit still spending just millions a day, you're like, fuck.
00:34:51
tommy cresta
Yeah. I mean, I know how expensive that one is, but even seeing the worst team the circuit, it's like, hey, fuck.
00:35:02
tommy cresta
Crazy. That's why there's only 18 races. Yeah.
00:35:05
Ryan
Yeah. How do you make any money doing that?
00:35:06
tommy cresta
I didn't make any money.
00:35:08
Ryan
Because just go, if you give us a sticker to put on the helmet, it's $20 billion.
00:35:08
tommy cresta
If you give us a sticker to put my helmet, it's cool. Yeah, because you look at their – even their under, like their turtlenecks, so many sponsors.
00:35:12
Ryan
Yeah. So many sponsors. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
00:35:17
tommy cresta
And there's teams that are sponsored by the same companies. It's just your main sponsors.
00:35:22
tommy cresta
So yeah, it's a really fun time.
00:35:23
tommy cresta
if And if you've never watched F1 and you want to see what the sport's like, this is a pretty good way of looking at cause it because is what it's like.
00:35:33
tommy cresta
It's really fun to watch Brad Pitt just be a NASCAR driver and then gets thrown into F1 and then just starts stoning some wild shit.
00:35:42
tommy cresta
It's like Major League, but more serious for racing.
00:35:46
tommy cresta
It's like of misfits, quote-unquote.
00:35:46
Ryan
you Yeah. Just a hodgepodge of random fuckers.
00:35:50
tommy cresta
Great movie.
00:35:51
tommy cresta
Major League.
00:35:55
tommy cresta
Win the whole fucking thing. um But yeah, Ryan, what is your ah recommendation of the week?
00:35:58
Ryan
yeah right I'm going to just go with the bear.
00:36:01
tommy cresta
I'm going to just go with the bear. Oh yeah, new season.
00:36:03
Ryan
is yeah I watched the first episode of the new season.
00:36:04
tommy cresta
I watched the first episode.
00:36:06
Ryan
It was just as good as it's been the whole time.
00:36:08
tommy cresta
The whole show.
00:36:09
Ryan
The show is just fucking good.
00:36:09
tommy cresta
Is this the final season or is there one more?
00:36:11
Ryan
so there I think there's going to be one more.
00:36:13
tommy cresta
I think this one.
00:36:14
Ryan
I don't know. I haven't checked, though.
00:36:15
tommy cresta
I think it's either this one or the next one.
00:36:15
Ryan
Don't quote me on that. Yeah.
00:36:18
tommy cresta
It's a good one.
00:36:19
tommy cresta
I'm going with VHS. I just watched one and two.
00:36:22
tommy cresta
Big horror fan of, especially found footage, which is crazy that it's taken me all these years to get around these movies.
00:36:23
Ryan
It's crazy. It's because was talking to you.
00:36:28
tommy cresta
It's because I was never an anthology person, even if it was on TV or anything that.
00:36:31
tommy cresta
just never was something that stuck to me.
00:36:34
tommy cresta
I was like, it's kind of ridiculous. Why do I care about these short stories that are mixed together?
00:36:38
tommy cresta
Well, now I get it It's because it's cool.
00:36:40
tommy cresta
And you get to see a bunch of different directors, especially huge directors.
00:36:44
tommy cresta
Oh, Adam Lingard, the was talking about, he's only made the new two new films.
00:36:50
tommy cresta
Yeah. King Kong vs. Godzilla. And he's I don't think he's doing next one.
00:36:55
tommy cresta
But, yeah, they're really great.
00:36:57
tommy cresta
I mean, it's one the Ty West.
00:37:00
tommy cresta
Ty West does one of the shorts in the first one.
00:37:02
tommy cresta
can't remember any of the ones from the second one.
00:37:05
tommy cresta
But if you love all types of horror, but in found footage style, this is exactly it.
00:37:10
tommy cresta
You get horror slashers, you get paranormal, aliens, sci-fi, all of them all thrown into this found footage horror universe.
00:37:18
tommy cresta
Just one heads up, everyone's a piece of fucking shit in these movies.
00:37:22
tommy cresta
They're all terrible human beings. Except for two people.
00:37:28
tommy cresta
actually There's four people in the one. There's four people in the one.
00:37:30
Ryan
okay But it really is.
00:37:32
tommy cresta
But it's really good. i was laying on the verge of tears during the one because it just really sad.
00:37:33
Ryan
I don't know where it's just really sad. Shark Knight.
00:37:38
tommy cresta
of nowhere, I thought it was going be like hard and I was like sad and upsetting.
00:37:42
tommy cresta
It was kind of how he felt during Fright Night.
00:37:42
Ryan
Yeah. That scene sucked.
00:37:45
tommy cresta
Like, well, fuck, this is just sad out nowhere. Right.
00:37:48
tommy cresta

00:37:50
tommy cresta
Shark Night.
00:37:51
Ryan

00:37:53
tommy cresta
In 3D. It's kind of like that, where out of nowhere it just gets super sad.
00:37:57
Ryan

00:37:58
tommy cresta
Yeah. No, Fright Night's another great movie. If you like vampires, go watch Fright Night.
00:38:02
