Villains

Anyway, I'm Frank I'm Scott and where the last video store clerks. why I feel like when I get an idea, I have. I have to do a really good job. Yeah. No matter how stupid it is. I mean, I have spent hours shooting ten second videos of me going in one closet and coming out another one just to laugh. Yeah. I wish I had time to do things.

oh, so I guess it wasn't the most beautiful thing you'd ever seen them. . There are bags in my yard because my neighbors are monsters. Yeah. We get the last two places we've lived at. We seem to be like at the end of a wind tunnel where the trash collects on one side of the house. It's like we have that side of the house where the trash blows, who puts their trash in the like trash can taken away and doesn't put it in a bag.

Like it's just dumping it in the thing's just loosen your fucking trash. Can. The only time I'll do, if I'm walking by it doing yard work, I might throw a single it. Yeah. Or like a bag of poop or something like that, but mm-hmm, like dog shit. Well, even then I consolidate, I've got trash cans. Okay. It's the Danny Tanner OCD.

I've got trash cans in the garage for that kind of shit, trash, but not like dog shit, but when it comes time to empty the pooper scooper, I'll empty those trash cans into a big black like outdoor trash bag, then go throw away the outdoor shit that I've like accumulated with the dog shit in that. So everything goes in one big ass bag.

I'm an old man, but all this is stuff I never cared about until was like, well, we own this house. I guess I should worry about this shit. Oh, I definitely feel like fucking Mr. Anderson, dude. I'm fucking like, somebody's going fast on the street. I'm like staring at him. Mr. Anderson. I know that came into mind.

but I was thinking more along lines of Tom Anderson. Is his name? Tommy Anderson. What'd you watch? You said you watched some old man? Shit. Oh, my old man, shit is a TV show. Uh, forged and fire. Oh, I thought you were gonna say like you've been watching the fall guy or something. No, I play the free game online called fall guys.

They narrow 'em down. I get it. I there's a three period of time. I watched domino building competitions. Oh, okay. Yeah, I tried the one it's like blown away the glassblowing one, but I, I guess I don't understand art. I just don't agree with the judges. I'm like, what the fuck is wrong with you? Like you're picking this shit over that shit.

I mean, come on. I don't understand how they're not seeing what I'm seeing. Fuck you blown away. Bullshit. Better blown away as Tommy Lee Jones. Anyway, man, that is good. Yeah. And what who's is that Jeff Bridges? Yeah. Jeff Bridges. Jeff Bridges. Yeah. Tommy Lee Jones. Yeah. Yeah. I think somebody else was in it too.

Yeah. Of note somebody, there was a course Whitaker was in that maybe he was the up and coming bomb guy, I think. Oh yeah. I think you're, I think you might be right. And then whoever, uh, the bridge, uh, Jeff Bridge's love interest is that's what, who I was trying to think of. She's sounds like it's a not.

Nah, nah, nah, just, nah, man. I watched the whole thing. I've been meaning to ask you. Have you ever seen London? London. Okay. So you've never seen this movie. It's got Jason stay them. Chris Evans, Jessica Beal. No. I own it on DVD. It's almost never streaming anywhere. Mm-hmm I don't know if it's good or not.

Yeah. We may have to do that one at some point. I'll keep an eye out for it, but it's a weird movie. It's just talking. It's two guys doing cocaine and talking in the bathroom. It's Chris Evans and Jason steak. Is it a guy Richie movie? No. Okay. I mean, that would have been great but this is like, and Chris Evans has that bad wig.

I think it's a wig. He might just have bad hair. Uh, he has like longer hair, that sunshine wig. It's the same wig, which makes me think it's not the same wig. Hmm. Do you remember that? Wiggy hat at the beginning of sunshine. And then he shaves his head when he like, gets his shit together. He did have longer hair in the beginning, right?

Yeah. The turn of the decade. At some point around there, Jessica Beal and Chris Evans were dating and they have no, uh, chemistry in this mood. but I kind of like the movie, I it's it's a weird one. Yeah. Contractor. I would say no, go. I'd say, you know, I like Chris pine he's oh, you said Chris pine? Yeah. I thought you said Chris Evans.

No, I was wondering why you were talking about Chris Evans, but it's fine. No, no, no. Yeah, no. Chris pine. Because, you know, um, Heller high water. Did you ever see that one? Yeah, I like, I like that a lot. Well, so that guy who's like his brother in that Ben? Uh, yes. Yeah. I, I don't, uh, Ben foster damn, that's a good one.

Is it a show or is it a, it's a movie. Oh, Peacock exclusive. I'm pretty sure you didn't like it. I, I fell asleep and it wasn't because I was tired. I just, but what was awesome was I fell asleep and woke up and it had gone into another newer Kevin bacon horror movie. right after. Was it the one where his house is growing on the inside?

They stole all the plot from house of leaves. I think so, because it's the one is it made CFRI I started it before didn't finish that one either. but, um, I was just. That is bold of you to just rip off the opening of house of leaves. I didn't, I can't say I didn't finish either one, but I just thought it was funny that I fell asleep, cuz I.

Yeah. And then they then has potential, I guess, but it's almost offensive. I don't know, because you'd think like a movie like that, it's like, oh, they're gonna promote the LGBTQ community. And like the cast, I'm pretty sure they do, but parts of it are like, oh, were they cool with what you're doing in the, they must, must have been now.

Um, did you watch anything interesting? Fuck no, man. I watched, uh, XFiles finish paper girls paper girls was. Badass. I looked at it the other night, but that was the night I was too tired to do Jack shit. So I didn't even start it episodes. Good. I looked at it. If you have kids, you could watch that shit with your kids, for sure.

Mm it's. It's not a offensive in any way. Show. Very wholesome. Well, still being decent fucking time travel story. fucking good. Like little kid actors. Yeah. And I looked at, I wanted to do a documentary this week, something new, but the newest one was that football player who got catfished. Oh, I don't know about that, but it was new, big news back.

And this dude got like the shit end of the stick. But I, I just remember thinking that's weird. And I think from seeing the preview for this documentary, he got catfished, but it's before people understood what being catfished was, you know, there wasn't like a, an MTV show. Yeah. And, and like it didn't create this common term for what was going on.

So back then people were like, oh, he made up a girlfriend. And I believe that wasn't what happened. Oh, interesting. I think he got fucked and then just, he looked so bad at like ruined his career in a way. Yeah, that is a little more interesting, but that's the newest documentary on Netflix that I noticed.

And I just said, nah, not right now. Yeah. That's not what I'm looking for at this moment, man. I want like aliens and shit. That's what I've been hungry for. I've been, we watched a bunch of X files that that's been, did you, but we were gonna run out soon. you, you know, when you watch a show that long and then it's gone, mm-hmm when you binge watch a show, that is what is it?

And, uh, and then when it was gone, I was like, I wanted it to be over. I was sick of watching it. Like I was like, I fucking need something else. And then when it was gone, I was fucking empty. Well, and sometimes what makes it that long and what. What you feel like maybe should have gone that many seasons, but they ended it at like six.

I, when I made Kelly rewatch lost, I felt the same way. And then the fact that Grey's anatomy is still a thing and still happening and there's still new episodes. That's fucking bonkers year of Grey's anatomy, shit. Like, ER, went for so long. This is all different people and stuff like that. Same thing with Grey's anatomy.

I've been playing resident evil four in VR and it's crazy. Mm. Scares the shit outta me. Scary, scary. I'm getting Halloween. I'm certain to be like, come on, gimme some, like, I've been reading a lot of Clive Barker books. I'm looking for newer horror movies, newer that look good. That I haven't seen. I'm feeling a little eighties lately, as far as the horror stuff goes.

You'd mentioned that before I have this like, craving for that weird eighties horror lately, I think, you know, we meant. Uh, critters was in teenage mutant and ninja turtles. I feel like that's on HBO, max or something right now. I've seen critters too many times, too many times. So I'm not as big on the first critters is not as interesting to me as the

You've seen the out the outer space one a lot. I feel like that one was the one that I watched a lot. That was the one I saw the most there towards the end of me watching. Those was four. I wanna say it was three or or four. Yeah. Yeah. Well, they get spines that are like saw blades. Well, let's see. And you think that fantasm doesn't hold up, right?

Mm-hmm but. I remember nothing about the first one. And the second one was the first one I saw when I was a kid pin. Head's not in it as much in the, the first one. It's a little more like the book where it's all build up. Is he more in the sequences? See, I'm getting mix. See, I don't even remember. I need to watch how razor again I could do that.

I did read the book recently. So the Hellbound heart. It was good. It was sexy. nice comparison. There you'd have some good comparisons. Yeah, that's what I like. Clyde Barker. He tickles my, uh, erotic, thriller pickle. in a horror way, which is just so me yeah. A lot of good ones in the eighties we could pick from.

That's my jam. That's always been my. Is like the seventies, eighties horror. That's the, I've only recently been getting back into the stuff that came out when we were in high school. Mm. Because that's better now than it was then to me on the lighter side, I think I did see monster squad was on something.

Yeah. I'm not, I, yeah, I don't. You heard watch, I'd watch fright night again, but I, the original Friday night. And the remake. I love the remake, but, uh, I've only seen the remake once, but the original was one that I watched on H HP a lot. Yeah. When I was back in the day, Chris Sarandon? Yes. Yeah. Did you catch Chris?

Random's? Uh, cameo and the new one? I only saw it once. I don't think I did. Oh, I don't think I did. Oh, I won't spoil it. Just, I don't think I just watch for him next time you watch that movie. Oh, cuz it's got a, the new one has what's his name? Y yeah. All P I love that dude, man, that guy would've done some killer.

I think Rob Williams was in it too. I don't know if I ever actually watched it. I know what you're talking mentally challenged person. Think, and he's like Anton Yechtin friends with him. And, uh, David de Coveney is the older version of him telling the story. It's weird. It's not very good. it's like a, not very good.

It's not very good. I, I may be wrong about the Robin Williams thing. I know he keeps visiting like a prison in New York. I don't remember a lot about it, but I remember being like, I didn't like this. And then I talked about it for five minutes on a podcast. oh shit. So how did you feel about changing movies?

This. Changing movies. Yeah, I was good. It's I did, you know, it took me a minute to hold on. I got a little choke up right there. We had originally meant to do, and then it started with a C, right? Yeah. Next week. We're gonna do chaos, walking, chaos, walking on Hulu. But, uh, we announced that we were gonna do that at the end of the other one and then Reid it because.

no, no. what happens to me lately is I'm like, oh, oh, I'll text back in a minute. And then like one minute turns into two, but it's yeah. Two minutes turns into half an hour lately. I've been, I'll get a text message from someone at like nine in the morning, Uhhuh and uh, I know normal people wake up that early, but I don't.

And, uh, I will look at them and then forget I ever saw it. My thing is, I won't remember what it said. , I'm not saying that I don't send short reply text messages that don't have a lot of, you know, girth to 'em mm-hmm but, um, So I would like to send a thoughtful reply and sometimes I'm like, I don't have the time to do that right now.

I'm like, I need to focus cuz while I can't and then you're like, well, Scott sent me nine videos, so I'm not fucking watching those well, it's this weird fucking, it's gonna take me an hour in life. I can multitask do all these things, but something about me sending a text message. Oh no, I know. You'll like call me while you're at work and try to email somebody at the same time.

It's something about sending someone text message, email, just a message that I have to text type out mm-hmm the fucking rest of my brain shuts. I'm worthless. Don't even try and tell me like, oh, did you see that? Cuz I'm just locked in. I'm like that. About a lock I'm locked in on the screen. Yeah. When I'm watching TV, Kelly will be talking to me.

And I won't notice, or my movie ritual, I did it for pre yeah. And it had been while, since oy watched with me, I said that light's gotta go off. Oh, you like it all in the dark? I don't watch TV in the dark. I like the dark with an unobstructed screen. I know. Plenty of volume. You're very particular. yes. It's a whole mood.

It's a whole mood. No, I don't. I don't have a whole movie ritual. It's a lifestyle. Whenever I can do it. Sometimes I'll put one on one screen while I'm working and do it with the other one. I know, ah, that hurts me just thinking about it. I'm like how, that's, why I watched forged in fire. that's what I can, that's the same way.

I, I listen to podcasts while vacuum. It's two things at once. I can do that and I can do a lot of things. Sometimes I'll read like nine books at the same time. Just whatever I feel like reading. Right. Then they all get finished. I don't multitask like that in life. Well, I mean, how many TV shows are you involved in the plot of at the same time?

It just dropped on Hulu. It's from 2019. And, uh, it had a five point. On IMDB. I didn't look at the rotten tomatoes. It was rocking 75%. Mm-hmm on rotten tomatoes already, since it came out on Hulu. And it's been a week since I looked at that. Mm-hmm , it's risen to 6.2. Yeah, I, so I get there. I didn't see it when you first, I think it was gonna get there.

This was fucking good. Yeah. This was fun. I was excited. It didn't reinvent the wheel, but it was, uh, it had something new haphazardly after robbing a convenience store and packing a bowling bag full of drugs, Mickey and Jules played by bill Skarsgard and Maika Monroe. Bill is finally kind of a normal person.

Cuz I'm like, you own the dark basement, bro. like you are the dark basement, man. You're not afraid of that shit. So they run outta gas on a country road bound for Florida and they break into a secluded home looking for a. Or a car to steal perhaps, but while searching for the gas in the basement, searching for a gas can in the basement, they weren't searching for gas.

They might have been. I think these two are dumb, a little dumb. I loved how dumb they were. They were real fun. Dumb. Those words are tip of my tongue, dude. Fun, dumb. Yeah, fun, dumb. But while searching for a gas can in the basement, the bear find a dirty little girl chained up to a column while getting high in brainstorming.

So good. Been a while since I've seen her. She's in the closer, I think it's a USA. Is that still going? I don't know. What I always loved was when people were like, when you're married to Kevin bacon, do you need money? Nah, that dude's pumping it out forever. uh, but no is so everyone in this movie is only two degrees from Kevin be now what I fucking hear on?

Is it the closer or the closer? Like, where do you hear that everywhere, man? You, you don't get that. Do you have schizophrenia? no, no, no. For some reason I, I bring it up because I think like, that's the last thing I've seen her in, but I swear to fuck everybody. I talk to, no matter who it is, is it the closer or the closer they think it's a TV show, the mic nickels movie, then I'm like, what the fuck?

It's so PR George and Gloria come home. They arrive with their infant's son. Ethan, more on that knew something was up there. Georgia offers them the chance to leave without calling the police. But Mickey rejects the offer, demanding that the two free the girl from the basement, George frees, the girl as asked, but while Mickey tries to coax her out by offering her a hamburger, have you ever had a hamburger have you ever had a fucking burger?

Maybe I wanna jump on the bandwagon. . Let's start spreading false information about movies. Did you see that movie about the giant vagina that tore Tokyo down? It wasn't Paris. I thought it was Paris. No, it was Tokyo. Oh, cuz I thought when it turned around shit in Paris, they had to blur it out. well, no, I thought cuz then it exposed the, the, the catacombs sticks or vaginas.

I can't remember what that, well it exposed the catacombs and then that's what it, it exposed the catacombs. Yeah. It exposed the catacombs when it started eating the city, you know? Cause it was like big bites. Yeah. Um, We'll all be free. And at the same time, I'm like, dude are y'all ripping off teeth. No. I love teeth.

but these two guys have, uh, another movie. Coming out soon with Michael Monroe and, uh, they have a movie on AMC plus right now called body, which has a similar plot. Oh, maybe lower tier actors, a little more unknown. I feel like I've seen that title. It's uh, three girls break into a mansion. They thought was empty.

That's really close. Yeah. It's real close. Really close. This one. They have a reason. In fact, doesn't he, he gets he's like would, why wouldn't somebody leave their keys? There could be an emergency. no, the, the level. Fun dumb in this movie. Oh God. Through the fucking roof, the opening, when they Rob the convenience store with the fucking chicken head masks.

Yeah. Or a pigeon mask, chicken head pigeon. I watched the scene again. because I was like, that was so funny when she comes back in with that crowbar and she's like, menecing the guy on the floor. with her skinny little legs. It's so funny. She was sticking to the plan to the tee. I don't know it's digital or something.

I've never seen these two play characters like this. It was fun. So fun. No. So many, one liners. You're a Hawk woman. Kaka.

Oh, or how do you like the car wash? I, I got that. I understood that. I get it. I would've found that relaxing. Yeah. Like super relaxing. Yeah. You know, I lose my shit in life Olympics. Like, do you need a car wash? Do you need a car wash in reel? Is this what I need to do to you? When you're having a fucking meltdown?

I was like car washing. Gonna do shit. it's not gonna cut through it. Car wash. Ain't doing shit on you. Oh, that might calm me down a little bit. I don't lose my shit very often though. Two to three times daily, uh, it takes me, uh, it's a buildup of months. And then, then I lose my shit. Oh, somebody's one slip away from getting chokes landed out there in the world.

It never lost me. No, it never lost me. I was not waiting for this perfect hour and a half movie to end. I didn't want it to end. I didn't wanna to stop. It was good. It's what I needed. We just watched pray. That was good for me. That was great. Yeah. I felt amazing. And then watched this the week after good times.

Yeah. And like you said about the basement. Yeah. I, it was hard for you to believe that he was try to get her to go downstairs first and then he goes, I'm not gonna leave you up in the scary upstairs, alone. What did she walk in and say like, oh fuck that. Or, oh, hell no. Like she just comes up and just states the office and it's like, thank you.

Mm-hmm and they were. Obvious in the first place, but they were still good when they came up later. but when she comes in with that baby, I was immediately like, that's not baby. You knew something. I, I looked over and I was like, oh man, are we gonna get a petrified baby? Well, I was like, is this a bad prop baby?

Or is it a, uh, a doll? I, I went to mummified, baby, this fucking crazy chicks running around with a mummified baby. Well, that smile is, uh, it's something else. , it's scary. It was a good mix of creepy Jeffrey Donovan just immediately with that accent. And, uh, that accent, no one has no one. Nobody has that accent.

How amazing Florida is get to Florida. Start a new life. That's where you go. That's where you go. Everybody knows your name, the sweaty GUC of America. Yeah. I'm not going. You're not going. Have you ever been to Florida? Nope. Yeah. It's sticky. and we're from Texas. I gradually complain more as you go along the south towards that direction.

Yeah. When I was younger, I didn't fully understand it, but I had several people explain it to me. That Florida is much worse than Texas when it comes to humidity. Oh, it's terrible. Yeah. And it rains every day. Like four o'clock. I, I don't need to see it firsthand or experience it. If you're on one side of Florida on that coast, on the Atlantic side, mm-hmm , it's totally different than in, in the arm.

cause you're like, I don't fucking care. My balls are stuck to my leg. Those fucking old man marina button ups with the fucking vented armpits and shit. Yeah. I, I always thought of, uh, Bruce Willis says that in north, don't go to Miami in the summertime, your balls stick to your leg, like super glue. He says that in north.

Yeah. And I remembered that when I was a. It's like when he drives off, when he gets back with his Seinfeld parents, wait, man. North pissed me off as a kid. I don't like to talk about north. That's my least favorite Elijah wood movie. I liked your north. I liked it a lot. I liked radio flyer that is sadder than north.

my blood is poison. Okay. I'll stop. I'm sorry. Oh, we forgot to mention that. I mean, we said it in the summary, but that's after they go downstairs and find a little girl. So he asked George about it, but he's like, that's all sweetie pie. she's just being bad in school. No, the creepy vibe. It wasn't chainsaw.

Massa, dark whatsoever. The music was really good with switching tone. Mm-hmm when they were like being silly and stupid, all high, trying to think of things, the music's kinda like and then they don't let you know something bad is gonna happen. And when they're down there right before they find the girl.

She rides by on that tricycle, but she just fucking rides. I'm so creepy. It's so fucking creepy. And then they turn and jump scary with the fucking girl. And it was so effective. Mm-hmm you got me. Well, and just their reactions. Those were perfect character reactions for Mickey and Jules and how they get mad at the girls.

No. And it threw me off as to what time this was supposed to be. Yeah, because the, they were dressed a little nineties. They were, and that the decor and credits were a little nineties. Love that animation. And I watched the whole thing. That was great. Did you, you, you course, you did. I did. I did. I did. The second time I was getting real beaver, but head do America vibes.

No one thinks of that one first. I never think of that one. Yeah. It's not as good. It's all right. purple, sticky punch. I watched that not long ago and laughed the whole time. It's still funny. his rebutt. Was probably my favorite part of the movie. Once he's like, I can read people and then bill Skarsgard, you got a really fucking old TV he was like, I don't trust people who don't watch very much TV kind of fucking weird.

yeah. God, he's not an idiot. No, not an idiot. They're just a little more on the simple side. I mean, there was at the very beginning he's like, is this digital when he is talking about the cash register I was like digital. And then the car that they're driving. Well, I always. In movies. When somebody like opens a cash register really fast, would you come in and study it?

Yeah. When she's trying to seduce Mickey in the bedroom, what was that for? Was it just some weird sex thing or did you thought it was I a trap giving it to her to appease her? Cuz she's crazy. And she still thinks she can have a baby, even though she's got a Dolly baby. Well, I think as the story progresses and.

You know, of course the end. Yeah. Her, her sense of being her, her wellbeing. He's fucking nuts. He's unhinged, but classy. love those clothes. Those fucking clothes are hilarious, but she's just gone. She's gone. So there has to be a, you know, he's giving her some freedom. I thought it was a trap. I thought, you know, George was gonna pop in and be like, That you were gonna fucking model wife.

It was fucking crazy or play with our toy before we kill it. So she had some other delusions. Yeah. I couldn't get. George's relationship with the basement girl, because he would be like, oh sweetie. I thought it was sincere for like, he was like, wow, my wife's crazy, but I didn't wanna throw this girl out.

So this is what I did, which is also crazy, but I don't want to hurt, you know, but he turns it on and off so fast. Obviously they'd killed multiple people. I love the picture when he was in the room and she shows him the old picture of her and George and they're in the hotel room. Oh yeah. And then I was like, did you see the fucking arm?

Yeah. He's and there were like two people tied up. I love that, cuz he's just so. So fucking like just clueless, thens to the whole thing. And he's like hoards. He's like, there's definitely mold down here and they're both holding their noses.

after her weird wig, horror, old timey hooker dance. Yeah. Her failed SES layers of dresses, her failed seduction with a weird, yeah. I don't even know what you call that. Yeah, she scared the fuck outta me. Creepy. Yeah. She's super creep. She was intense, man. She was calling herself mommy, mommy. Oh, which I love how he played into it later.

Mommy, that look on her face when she turned. Oh, he goes, mommy, like question mark. Boom dude. Then when, uh, he escapes grabs her by the hair. . Oh, when he gets outta the handcuff, I, I wanna touch you once they put him back downstairs, they have that fucking long conversation about how they're gonna find shells.

It was really tight writing. Well, and I feel this type of movie is in everyone's cup of tea, but the way that they did it was quality. All around. Yeah. Cuz this, this is a quality movie. Well, similarly this is uh, oh, what's the, the movie with Steven Lang. When he's blind, they break into that house. Don't breathe.

I feel like it was at least 17. Mm, I don't know. Mm. You gotta look it up. I'm gonna real quick. 2016 and 2021. Fuck. [00:35:00] little behind little by, yeah. That's your kind of movie too. That's the guy who directed the evil dead Rema. Yeah, that's good. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. It's got that same. Well, it's got that same horror movie crank where it's like 20 minutes of setup.

Fucking mayhem for like nonstop all the way to the end of the movie, to be completely honest. When I first saw the preview, I was a little apprehensive. Really? Yeah. It, it wasn't, uh, if you show me like someone, like, you know, mm-hmm, green feeling around the dark with those big wide eyes I freak out immediately.

Man the first time I saw boogie nights. Yeah. that was a good time. Kinda wanna see that new Paul Thomas Anderson movie licorice pizza. I think it's called that's on my list of things that I was it's on right now. It's on prime. It's gonna get everybody knows. It's good. Yeah. Parasite didn't deserve the Oscar Oscar for does picture does make fair movies.

Uh, toting out, loved it. Fucking loved it. Oh, I hated it. Loved it. I hate that shit. I was ready for it. Oh no. Even the little girl wasn't ready for it, man. She was covering her eyes. She had to sit there and hold that blood in the mouth. While George came down and tried to feed him. when he tries to feed [00:37:00] him too.

He's like open the hanger. Fucking loved it. This movie didn't lose me once. Is that a cast of seven people too? And it didn't lose me once I cared about the whole thing I wasn't between scary and just hilarious. So what genre was, this is a horror comedy horror comedy, I would say. So I knew that it was horrible, but like, what did they say?

It was, uh, it was listed as a horror comedy on pretty much everywhere. I looked. Anything about it? Oh, uh, he's got stuntman Mike's car tattooed on his wrist from death proof. No shit. Yeah. Fuck. I notice that when they were picking thet ring mm-hmm like he was picking the handcuffs with thet ring. I was like, that's fucking stuntman Mike's car.

Cause they do it all the time. Yeah. But I love uh, when they. The, they get the handcuffs undone and the little girl points at the laundry shoot and it twinkles. Yeah, the, the little GLING the little ping. Yeah. Ah, it really solidified how this movie. Was in tone. It never lost its like I know what I am and it wasn't reinventing the wheel.

It's a home invasion movie that turns on, you know, I I've watched home invasion movies this year that Jason Siegel won. But uh, this, all the dialogue, no matter what scene it was, no matter what combo of characters it was, the dialogue, nothing was wasted. Everything. I'm a correct shop. Boy. I miss you on purpose.

You ain't seen mean.

That's what it was like. He might have been, I think he was. Like the accountant, lawyer guy or something. I watched a few episodes of burn notice and I was like, this guy's fucking good. I would watch this show, but I would have to be outta stuff to watch as much as I love Bruce Campbell. There's a lot of fucking burn notice.

I forgot that. That was him. That's him? Yeah. He looked much younger on that cover. Oh, he was, was younger, much younger. I know. Yeah. Fuck it. Almost 10 years ago. Where does the time go? Uh, staring at her phones. Oh, real quick, real quick. There are only so many faces. Oh yeah. Olympia looks at me and she's like, Hey, he looks like the guy from Fargo.

They look the same and, uh, people both kind of have an eye thing where, well, when you saw that snip from that article, I sent you, right? Yeah. Steve Buscemi. Yeah, he was a, he, he handsome younger dude. He looked good thing. He go, he got Steve Buscemi looking as he got older, something happened and I liked.

The way Steve Buschemi looks. Yeah. Especially in Airheads. damnit PIP. uh, . I love when he escapes and then she comes out upstairs after she finds the doll baby. Oh. And that scene with the doll baby, she picks it up and she's like, she's where. And like turns towards the closet and looks doesn't open it, but just looks, and I was like, is this fucking gonna be like a, like a living dull thing?

They're like. Yeah. I mean, they do drug 'em in the food at the one point. Well, at the end they wanna, uh, yeah. And they spoiler spoiler spoilers. like at this point, but like, that's what we do. Yeah. but no, like you're saying, when she holds the doll even, and that tense moment of, oh fuck. Well, she turns like smiling mm-hmm and then the way her face changes, melts the melt.

Were they setting. Them up to find the girl in the house somewhere, or that was close. like he was gonna let him go. Like, he was like, oh, he almost got me. That was close. Do you think he was about to fucking shoot him in the back of the head when he walked away and she stopped the killing of Mickey? Oh, I don't know.

That was a, they fucking came into our. Yeah. I don't think him letting him go. I think that was a pretty on the fly. You feel like he was genuinely gonna let him go? He was like, I know she's somewhere in the house and thought, thought she really was long gone well, because then after they drug him at dinner and tell him, they're gonna let him go again.

And he's fucking with him. Mm-hmm , uh, he like the cop comes and I really thought he was gonna shoot that cop when the cop was down in the basement. Yeah. And I liked that cop too. He was a good cop. Like I was like, that's a really good, that actor was a really friendly cop, but you were like, Cop does not believe this man.

Mm-hmm also, I was like, they're gonna wake up from that fucking drug overdose. They're drug addicts. Yeah. It's not gonna have the same effect. They've got a fucking tolerance, man. They had the fucking drugs, they were taking the drugs. You just gave them like a little bigger hit than they normally take.

And just like, like a yoga mat. Yeah. Um, yeah, I had some real Chevy chase. What was it? Modern problems, but

no, that was great. I, you know, I love it when they incorporate like classy drug. Or like, you know, when it's like, uh, it's just so funny when, you know, like I hate when they write about doing drugs and you can tell it's somebody who never had been in this situation. Oh, big Hollywood flaw. How come nobody in movies can hit a bong.

And you've got just like this huge rip sitting in the bong. Yeah. Come on. How many times you gonna shoot? I know you people have smoked weed, at least one of you in that scene has smoked weed in real life. Hit the fucking bong. I remember I had a lot of respect for, uh, Gweneth Paltro despite her goop shit.

Now I remember she took a movie or she took Royal tenal and she was real excited cuz she could smoke cigarettes and she was like, fuck. Yeah, respect and I, no matter what. Weird shit. She does. That's the thing I think about when I think about her, she wanted to smoke cigarettes. Did you ever see sliding doors?

No, I never did watch that. I heard that that was a great movie, but you never watched it? I never watched it. Yeah. So, and I'm like, who told me it was a great movie. It sounds like the kind of thing. Jeffrey Donovan. When he hits him with the fucking car, like the little girl pulls the gun mm-hmm after they've done their escape shit.

Yes, that was, uh, when she shoots, after the little girl shoots, it was a good one. I guess you finally realize how nuts she is when she comes outside. Yeah. Cuz they were just gonna say, fuck it. Start over. Start fresh. They lost Ethan, the baby, the baby the, the, the ceramic, whatever fucking kind of baby it was.

But yeah, no, I never miss with those dolls. I was, I was worried for a second though. Living doll stuff. It spooks me, but then at the same time, I'm like, it's never done. Very good. the boy. Ugh. Terrible. Did you, I didn't see it. I'd like to support, um, what's her name? Lauren Cohan. She was walking dead. Lauren Cohen.

I was hard. Well, everybody loved walking dead when it was out. And when it first came out, it was great. Shows that go to long, go to long man. That was the first convention I committed to when I was, uh, I'm not gonna watch this show forever. Mm-hmm or I'm gonna wait till it's over mm-hmm and then I'll do it one day was, uh, when I think they were, it was like governor Kirkman was like, we'll probably get to, he was talking about something in the comic book that they had alluded.

He was like, that'll probably be like season 10. Oh no. no, you don't get me that long. Yeah, no, you can't like, well, wait, they've canceled the movies, right? The three. Sure. Andy Lincoln movies. Didn't they make another spinoff. Like they tried it supposed to be some younger, well, they have one that's in anthology starting soon.

It's like one episode stories. Yeah. They had walking dead fear of the walking dead. Then there was this one that I didn't give a fuck about with like preteen, not preteens, but fucking for Pete's sake. Don't young adults latch onto something just when something's good. Don't beat it to death. No, here's the thing.

There's a scream six slated. Now five was fucking don't fucking do that to the series, man. We we're gonna get to the, the age at some point where the repackaging gets, it's gonna start to make us, man. I think at first it's like, oh cool. But I want them, I kind of want them to make stuff. Like what I did, like stranger things.

Mm-hmm, super eight. The stuff I liked when I was a kid nostalgic relatable, I I'm so down with them making stuff like that. That's that's, I'm fine too. But again, let's not beat it to death and I love it. I saw memes that were like, well, by the time we see the last season of stranger, things are gonna be fucking 30.

Like, you don't need to bring iron man back. We don't need another captain America. Well, yeah, with this Marvel shit. What are we on phase 50? What the fuck? I think we're only on six, this, but that's what I'm saying. When they, they show new lineup super weak. Well, they show you the lineup of all this and it's like, oh, Like I don't need, do I give a fuck movie?

We have a really good blade movie. That's still good. We don't need another blade movie. I watched that first one just a couple weeks ago. It's great. Fucking loved it. Yeah, it was so dark and fucked up. Fucking loved it. Motherfuckers always trying to, I skate uphill. that's in my phone is one of my quotes I love that shit.

That's my favorite quote than anything, dude. It's in my phone. Remember I told you I was starting a list of those mm-hmm that's the last one that I put in when I rewatched that's play three though. cause he's. Motherfucker is always trying to ice skate up hill. I was like that's I didn't fucking remember that.

Fuck. Yeah, I think chaos, walking's probably gonna be better than paradise. I fucking hope chaos walking is better than paradise Hills. It is a Jonas in it. And I still think that. Yeah. And I mean, but between prey and villains, I've had a good two weeks. Oh man. But this didn't, it's a movie that's been made before and was done better, better than in most home invasion movies.

Like, oh yeah. Hold on. Think of like funny games. Is the one that I, I think of immediately. And I liked funny games a lot before I forget you can cut this out or you can leave it. note to Scott: Brian Lowry with CNN. I won't go into explanation. Is this a review? Yeah, he is a fucking critic. I think fuck you, Brian Lowry with fucking CNN fucking choke on it, dude.

Yeah. Fucking cops have a job giving fucking speeding tickets. It's it's fucking horse shit. it's fucking made up shit fucking what's real, man. What really makes fucking sense? Not this fucking guy. Does this have to do with the movie? It has to do with something I'm so confused. Yeah. Fuck Brian Lowry.
