[00:00:02] Alex Furlong is about to die and enter the year 2009.
[00:00:10] Now, he's a free jack.
[00:00:11] Someone paid to bring him back.
[00:00:13] With a body that's priceless.
[00:00:15] 15 million to anyone who can bring you in.
[00:00:17] In a world that's ruthless.
[00:00:19] I watched you die.
[00:00:20] Emilio Estevez, Mick Jagger, René Russo, and Anthony Hopkins.
[00:00:25] Welcome to my mind.
[00:00:26] Free Jack, rated R, starts Friday, January 17th.
[00:00:31] He's a cop from the 90s.
[00:00:33] Who just woke up in the 21st century.
[00:00:37] I've been dreaming about killing you for 40 years.
[00:00:40] She's his new partner.
[00:00:41] What I wouldn't do for some action.
[00:00:43] With all the right moves.
[00:00:45] I'm impressed.
[00:00:46] And all the wrong phrases.
[00:00:48] You take this job, you can shovel it.
[00:00:50] Close enough.
[00:00:51] Sylvester Stallone.
[00:00:52] Wesley Snipes.
[00:00:55] Demolition Man, rated R, starts Friday, October 8th.
[00:01:01] It's a Jackdumb Review Show.
[00:01:10] It's a Jackdumb Review Show.
[00:01:13] Jackdumb Review Show.
[00:01:22] It's a Jackdumb Review Show.
[00:01:25] It's a Jackdumb Review Show.
[00:01:28] It's an all-star cast.
[00:01:49] We got all kinds of people here tonight.
[00:01:51] He's a nerd and myself.
[00:01:54] I like yourself.
[00:01:56] I'm good.
[00:01:57] How about yourself?
[00:01:58] I cannot complain.
[00:01:59] We are cyberpunk city.
[00:02:03] Two TBS heads.
[00:02:05] So to speak.
[00:02:06] That's true.
[00:02:07] We got Free Jack.
[00:02:09] And then we got Demolition Man.
[00:02:11] Both had comic books that not only adapted the movies,
[00:02:18] but used a lot of deleted segments.
[00:02:20] I could not believe it.
[00:02:22] The first one was by IDW for Free Jack.
[00:02:26] And then Demolition Man was a DC Comics special for Parter.
[00:02:32] Interesting.
[00:02:33] I just find it interesting how with Willow,
[00:02:35] there are several deleted scenes or enhancements of the plot.
[00:02:39] I'm like, this is too good to be true.
[00:02:44] I need that about Willow, but not about Demolition Man.
[00:02:47] I find that intriguing.
[00:02:49] It was a last-minute deal and I was not prepared for it.
[00:02:53] Why do you think these movies are like ultimate cult movies?
[00:02:57] Critics hate them, audiences love them,
[00:03:00] and plenty of other users love them for various reasons.
[00:03:06] What's interesting with...
[00:03:08] I'll start with Demolition Man.
[00:03:10] That one, I would say because there's actually some cases
[00:03:15] where I'm like, I'm going to go with Demolition Man.
[00:03:18] Some cases where some of the...
[00:03:21] Like the roles they come up with in that movie
[00:03:24] kind of apply to today.
[00:03:26] Oh, yeah.
[00:03:27] The only thing they haven't done is find you for cursing,
[00:03:31] which I'm sure they might be coming at this point.
[00:03:33] Yeah, don't even get me started on the cable TV edits.
[00:03:37] Yeah.
[00:03:40] With Free Jack, I think it's more interest with,
[00:03:44] especially Mick Jagger being involved,
[00:03:46] that probably got some people to watch.
[00:03:49] Yeah, and Jeff Murphy seems to be one of the few B-list directors
[00:03:54] who regardless of what other people liked his movies are not,
[00:03:57] Under Siege 2, Young Guns 2,
[00:04:00] and then various other ZLIN productions.
[00:04:05] And here he is doing a movie promoted as The Next Total Recall
[00:04:09] and again, not great, but pretty big on movies.
[00:04:13] And the comic does a good job of even explaining the storyline
[00:04:18] better, which critics had an issue with.
[00:04:20] And unlike some of these other junky mainstream B-pictures,
[00:04:25] so to speak, I didn't...
[00:04:26] I thought the plot was like the least of its trouble
[00:04:28] and it was just more just...
[00:04:30] It seemed like a lot of people nowadays shit on it now
[00:04:33] because they just don't care for Emilio's performance
[00:04:37] and I'll admit he doesn't really have enough to do
[00:04:41] as the lead.
[00:04:42] The cars kind of do the talking,
[00:04:44] but I don't think he's a bad performer in this,
[00:04:46] but what do I know?
[00:04:48] I think he's fine in this.
[00:04:50] It's more Anthony Hopkins I had my problems with.
[00:04:53] Yeah.
[00:04:54] He was quite useless as the villain.
[00:04:56] That's what I always say.
[00:04:58] Well that and when he's barely in it
[00:05:01] and he's bashing the movie and is like,
[00:05:03] dude, shut up, you did all these Hannibal sequels.
[00:05:06] You also did Transformers of Last Night,
[00:05:08] so you shouldn't be talking about that.
[00:05:10] Just saying.
[00:05:11] You did the Wolfman remake.
[00:05:13] That's true.
[00:05:16] You've done all kinds of movies
[00:05:18] and you're going to shit on this one.
[00:05:20] I mean, I would if anything,
[00:05:23] hit on maybe some of the ensemble duds he had back
[00:05:25] from the 60s to 80s compared to this.
[00:05:28] Yeah.
[00:05:29] But he's barely in it,
[00:05:31] even though he's a key role.
[00:05:33] For those who want to see it,
[00:05:35] his streaming is still on 2B,
[00:05:37] keeps coming up and down I think on HBO Max,
[00:05:40] because it's a Warner Brothers production.
[00:05:42] I think I saw part of it on TNT one time.
[00:05:46] It was often played in the 2 to 4 AM range
[00:05:49] and I think I just mainly remember the visuals
[00:05:52] and everything.
[00:05:53] It's a pretty light R.
[00:05:55] There's like maybe very sparse language
[00:05:57] and I think it's just occasional blood,
[00:06:00] but nothing again.
[00:06:03] Not Verhoeven or Krohn and Verge levels
[00:06:05] where you're flying,
[00:06:07] just seeing explosions.
[00:06:09] Explosions on people's chest.
[00:06:15] Sorry, go ahead.
[00:06:16] I'll say they kept the story simple
[00:06:18] and that's what I think
[00:06:20] anybody who's a fan of this
[00:06:22] probably appreciates more than other films
[00:06:24] where they would convolute it
[00:06:26] to the point that it just becomes a mess.
[00:06:28] That's what everybody appreciates with this one.
[00:06:32] I think that night I saw it on TNT
[00:06:34] it was actually on after a similar movie
[00:06:36] like The Sixth Day or Total Riggles.
[00:06:43] There you go, Arnold movies.
[00:06:45] But yeah, I don't find the plot impossible to follow.
[00:06:50] I like that the filmmakers have the car scenes
[00:06:54] here and there where they need them
[00:06:57] without going fast and furious level
[00:06:59] like they would nowadays
[00:07:00] where that's 20 minutes that you could easily cut out
[00:07:03] and I guess it just gets shit on
[00:07:05] because there are some slower moments
[00:07:07] but it's not to the point where
[00:07:09] wow, the movie totally grinded to a halt
[00:07:11] but at the same time
[00:07:13] there's sparse stuff here and there
[00:07:15] so it's kind of more of a Sunday night movie.
[00:07:18] Yeah, that's how I would describe it.
[00:07:26] But yeah, everyone kind of just gave this a pitch slap
[00:07:28] and I don't really know.
[00:07:33] Jeff Murphy did a similar movie just like this
[00:07:36] with Sarah Winter, Sir Randon I think
[00:07:39] and Carrie Ells
[00:07:42] and it was called Race Against Time
[00:07:44] and it was a TNT original movie
[00:07:46] Eric Roberts was the lead
[00:07:47] but it was so much like this.
[00:07:51] But it was compared to Logan's Run and Running Man
[00:07:53] I would call it more of a
[00:07:55] Terminator knockoff.
[00:07:59] Yeah, we have a few of those.
[00:08:01] Minus the cyborgs.
[00:08:03] I just find it interesting because
[00:08:05] same kind of deal where
[00:08:07] Jeff Murphy was kind of a gun for hire
[00:08:09] and he would do all kinds of movies.
[00:08:11] He made decent money for Morgan Creek
[00:08:13] and all these other Time Warner sections
[00:08:15] so he just kind of kept showing up
[00:08:17] from the various productions
[00:08:19] but we have much money this made.
[00:08:23] I don't think it did as well as they thought it might
[00:08:25] considering the cast.
[00:08:27] Oh yeah,
[00:08:29] oof, 17 million
[00:08:32] 30 million dollar budget.
[00:08:34] Oh hell, even made 37 outwards
[00:08:36] so yeah, she's there
[00:08:38] and didn't make.
[00:08:41] Yeah, that was rough.
[00:08:43] I didn't recognize Frankie Faison
[00:08:45] or Amanda Plummer in this at all.
[00:08:48] I actually forgot they were in it when I
[00:08:50] watched it
[00:08:52] like a year ago.
[00:08:55] That surprised me
[00:08:57] and especially Jonathan Banks, I was surprised to see him.
[00:09:00] I totally forgot he was in this.
[00:09:02] Oh, Dully.
[00:09:04] I knew he was in it but I didn't know who he played
[00:09:06] I figured he was a henchman but nope
[00:09:08] total reversal, he is playing the main bad guy.
[00:09:14] And I guess if I had any complaints
[00:09:16] I'd say he spent probably a little too much
[00:09:18] just
[00:09:20] it's interesting how
[00:09:22] he's just kind of
[00:09:24] how to say it
[00:09:26] he
[00:09:28] he doesn't believe
[00:09:30] his handler so the minute he's like
[00:09:32] the deal is off, he's still trying to kill
[00:09:34] us.
[00:09:36] Yeah.
[00:09:38] I wouldn't do any of that if I didn't have any money.
[00:09:40] No.
[00:09:42] Thoughts on Mick Jagger, why do you think everyone
[00:09:44] just bless actors
[00:09:46] or singers
[00:09:48] who are becoming actors?
[00:09:50] I was just thinking about that the other day
[00:09:52] and I think in his case, I think just because
[00:09:54] he's not even trying
[00:09:56] with his delivery, even though
[00:09:58] I think it's more intentional than what
[00:10:00] people believe.
[00:10:02] I mean I'm sure he just wanted to have fun
[00:10:04] I'm sure they sell him on, you get to
[00:10:06] drive dangerous cars
[00:10:08] and bust people around and hold a gun.
[00:10:10] I mean it's not like other
[00:10:12] singers, well
[00:10:14] when they try to act
[00:10:16] I know what's going on.
[00:10:20] who try to have a career
[00:10:22] and well there's a reason why she doesn't
[00:10:24] act anymore, but that's the size of the point.
[00:10:28] Whereas Mick Jagger
[00:10:30] at least knew what kind of film
[00:10:32] he was in and had fun with it.
[00:10:34] Whereas she never did
[00:10:36] and that's how Creole falls are.
[00:10:42] Or like, I don't know, Jay Low
[00:10:44] where the quantity is better than quality
[00:10:46] thanks Jay for doing
[00:10:48] two bad movies this year alone.
[00:10:52] I'm not bad to watch anymore
[00:10:54] so I'm good.
[00:10:56] You are fortunate, I've never seen a
[00:10:58] darker lit movie than
[00:11:00] The Mother and I thought it was just kidding
[00:11:02] when they were just giving grades at best
[00:11:04] but then I saw it and was like, oh no
[00:11:06] deep hurting.
[00:11:12] I knew E. Zyme
[00:11:14] Morales was in this but much like
[00:11:16] when he was in LA even his Telstra
[00:11:18] McRib episode I forgot who he was playing
[00:11:21] and I'm very impressed by him.
[00:11:23] Before he became Mr. Procedural
[00:11:25] Guy or Dramatic
[00:11:27] Actor Guy, here he is
[00:11:29] in this big part role and once again
[00:11:31] he's just being both a smart ass
[00:11:33] and showing that he kind of fears
[00:11:35] for his safety at times without
[00:11:37] you know, filling the man up
[00:11:39] it's weird.
[00:11:41] Stuff all in one's and
[00:11:43] yeah, no
[00:11:45] I just really dug how
[00:11:48] he just got to work instantly
[00:11:50] and he was just like, on it boss
[00:11:52] and he just starts digging.
[00:11:54] Yeah
[00:11:56] They also have
[00:11:58] someone like David Johansson
[00:12:00] Yeah
[00:12:02] who, which is funny because
[00:12:04] I always knew his Buster Point Dexter
[00:12:06] as an SNL fan
[00:12:08] that's how I knew him.
[00:12:10] So I never knew he was
[00:12:12] after the frontman for New York Dolls
[00:12:14] until
[00:12:16] literally
[00:12:18] I watched this for the first time so
[00:12:20] it was interesting
[00:12:22] seeing him like this compared to his appearances on
[00:12:24] now.
[00:12:26] I saw that Linda
[00:12:28] Florentino was supposed to be the lead
[00:12:30] I don't think this did any
[00:12:32] this would have done anything much
[00:12:34] for her career. In fact she would probably
[00:12:36] quit after this because I know she was very
[00:12:38] demanding back in the day if it was not
[00:12:40] working so I wanted to think the director
[00:12:42] back set and say what are we doing here?
[00:12:44] So I
[00:12:46] I think if she followed this
[00:12:48] up with Jade
[00:12:50] she would have been like, she wouldn't have done
[00:12:52] Men in Black. No she wouldn't have
[00:12:54] She wouldn't have
[00:12:56] So
[00:12:58] Sony apparently
[00:13:00] released the Blu-ray and I think you said you've had
[00:13:02] a copy of that
[00:13:04] Yeah. Good resolution
[00:13:07] Yeah I mean it's suddenly
[00:13:09] ugly over the DVD I can say that
[00:13:11] at least
[00:13:13] but it's not going to be overly
[00:13:16] ugly because then
[00:13:18] shoot on digital even though I prefer
[00:13:20] when film is shoot on film
[00:13:22] compared to digital nowadays
[00:13:24] Yeah digital seems
[00:13:26] to be a very big headache
[00:13:28] inducing thing where you're not sure
[00:13:30] how much of it is
[00:13:32] the resolution versus
[00:13:34] people taking it
[00:13:36] cheap I've even seen
[00:13:38] filmmakers even complain that they
[00:13:40] saw some of the James Bond film sets
[00:13:42] on Blu-ray and they were like that looks like
[00:13:44] a GMHD rip not a Blu-ray rip
[00:13:46] so it does kind of make you wonder
[00:13:48] if it took some shortcuts when
[00:13:50] it first came out and then they were like
[00:13:52] okay we're not going to bother doing this
[00:13:54] unless we absolutely
[00:13:56] can
[00:13:58] give a great
[00:14:00] just
[00:14:02] remastering
[00:14:04] Yeah
[00:14:06] So apparently Jeff Murphy
[00:14:08] wanted nothing to do with this movie
[00:14:10] either I thought it was just Anthony Hopkins
[00:14:12] apparently did not like it much either
[00:14:14] and said hey I'll just
[00:14:16] and
[00:14:18] one of the producers overreacted
[00:14:20] at the test screening and said
[00:14:22] okay I guess I'm going to reshoot and
[00:14:24] add more character scenes
[00:14:26] I think that's why this movie is less
[00:14:28] longer there is some hard
[00:14:30] sci-fi stuff here and there it's just
[00:14:32] now everyone again
[00:14:34] just remembers isn't that weird time
[00:14:36] travel car movie
[00:14:38] I think it's actually been on the
[00:14:40] Nescar speed channel a few times
[00:14:45] oh wow
[00:14:47] different kind of movie
[00:14:51] yeah
[00:14:53] I don't know what else to say
[00:14:55] other than why do you think
[00:14:57] Hopkins is so
[00:14:59] spice this movie so much
[00:15:01] compared to any other shit he's made
[00:15:03] well probably because
[00:15:05] I'm assuming he was
[00:15:07] I don't know if he was shooting
[00:15:09] something else and then
[00:15:11] they couldn't get made so
[00:15:13] forced to do this for some reason I have no idea
[00:15:19] first movie Dan Gilroy Road
[00:15:21] and of course he married
[00:15:23] Renee Rousseau shortly after
[00:15:25] and yep that same year
[00:15:28] wow
[00:15:30] she plays it
[00:15:32] safe in this role I think
[00:15:34] John Sheehan is kind of underutilized too
[00:15:36] I know he's more of a TV actor but
[00:15:39] Frankie Face sign
[00:15:41] what's funny is I just kept
[00:15:43] I totally didn't recognize him
[00:15:45] I thought he was a totally different actor and then I'm like
[00:15:47] oh wow okay
[00:15:51] look at you go Mr. TV
[00:15:55] he also got
[00:15:57] I think it was
[00:15:59] I don't know if they were still married at the time but
[00:16:01] Mick Jagger's wife at the time Jerry Hall
[00:16:03] in a very small role
[00:16:05] which was for the best
[00:16:07] honestly
[00:16:09] yeah that was probably
[00:16:11] part of the deal
[00:16:13] I actually don't remember the reporter and I just saw it
[00:16:15] yesterday
[00:16:17] is that at the beginning of the movie or
[00:16:19] somewhere around the beginning yeah
[00:16:21] she appears
[00:16:25] trust me
[00:16:27] I don't blame you for forgetting that point
[00:16:31] it's a good thing it wasn't
[00:16:33] more than five minutes unlike her Batman appearance
[00:16:35] that's another story
[00:16:40] man
[00:16:42] yeah altogether I mean
[00:16:46] I'd recommend this movie
[00:16:48] more preferably if it came in a blu ray pack
[00:16:50] of like four movies by Morgan Creight
[00:16:52] yeah or if you could
[00:16:56] go track it down
[00:16:58] probably see on eBay
[00:17:00] if it's cheap if anybody's willing to put up the cheap
[00:17:02] nowadays
[00:17:04] but that depends
[00:17:06] that depends
[00:17:08] there you go
[00:17:10] oh man
[00:17:14] yeah
[00:17:16] I really am surprised how many people have actually seen
[00:17:18] this movie
[00:17:20] just seemed like for a while
[00:17:22] that
[00:17:24] movies like this were just obscure
[00:17:26] unless they were reviewed
[00:17:28] on a bad or infamous movie podcast
[00:17:32] as you tell some people
[00:17:34] knew about that especially
[00:17:36] years later
[00:17:38] years later
[00:17:40] I was one of the few that's like
[00:17:42] isn't that bad
[00:17:44] compared to some movies that y'all like to praise
[00:17:50] oh man
[00:17:52] so you'll find this kind of funny
[00:17:54] cinematographer
[00:17:56] has gone on to do all kinds
[00:17:58] of movies everything
[00:18:00] including slam dance
[00:18:03] ex-stinction that's the fourth one
[00:18:05] bad boys 2
[00:18:07] vast and furious 09
[00:18:09] man of steel
[00:18:11] and plenty of other stuff
[00:18:13] lord of war vantage point taking lives
[00:18:15] the sultan sea don't say a word
[00:18:17] eye for an eye and the joy luck club
[00:18:19] I'll take it
[00:18:21] interesting
[00:18:25] there you go
[00:18:27] recently shot more stuff like
[00:18:29] once upon a time in Venice
[00:18:31] super fly
[00:18:33] murder mystery with andre sandler
[00:18:35] and the first lady miniseries on show time
[00:18:37] so
[00:18:39] yeah
[00:18:43] I remember michael bay saying he really dug the guy
[00:18:45] but yeah he's from Iran
[00:18:47] and immigrated here in 1977
[00:18:52] interesting
[00:18:54] I would just compliment the set design on this movie
[00:18:56] because
[00:18:58] I gotta give that some kudos
[00:19:00] every other movie had seemed
[00:19:02] at that time
[00:19:04] would cut out everything
[00:19:06] because of the character development so this is a
[00:19:08] rarity where they were actually concerned
[00:19:10] oh no this is not gonna make sense
[00:19:12] audiences aren't reacting to it
[00:19:17] that's how they thought back in the day
[00:19:19] to play with certain
[00:19:21] films
[00:19:23] I think they learned a lesson
[00:19:25] but not really
[00:19:27] I guess
[00:19:29] I
[00:19:31] so Robert schlinkley
[00:19:34] was the original author of this
[00:19:36] from which this is derived from
[00:19:38] it is based on a novel
[00:19:40] from 1959
[00:19:42] and was featured under a different name called
[00:19:44] time killer in the galaxy science fiction
[00:19:46] magazine and got a hugo
[00:19:48] award nom
[00:19:50] but yeah it was called immortality
[00:19:52] ink
[00:19:54] actually
[00:19:57] that was based off
[00:19:59] a novel
[00:20:01] until five minutes ago
[00:20:04] that's news to me
[00:20:08] oh man
[00:20:10] but it's apparently also been adapted
[00:20:13] in a bbc anthology
[00:20:15] sci-fi show called out of the unknown
[00:20:17] and was made into a
[00:20:19] audio tape as well
[00:20:21] but
[00:20:23] yeah the best known adaptation
[00:20:25] is reject
[00:20:27] pretty much
[00:20:29] this sounds like the guy
[00:20:31] is going body to body just non stop
[00:20:33] and
[00:20:35] living in each world
[00:20:37] and they just were like no let's focus
[00:20:39] on the cars and then introduce the time
[00:20:41] trial
[00:20:43] yeah Robert schlinkley
[00:20:45] I guess
[00:20:47] Robert sachet
[00:20:49] and Steven pressfield
[00:20:51] all kinds of stuff
[00:20:53] pressfield
[00:20:55] oh no sorry my bad so he was the author
[00:20:57] and he's probably known
[00:20:59] for a book that also got adapted
[00:21:01] into an arguably far worse book
[00:21:03] you might know it as the legend of bag of ants
[00:21:07] oh yes
[00:21:11] a movie no one talks about
[00:21:13] and I'm always surprised because that's
[00:21:15] one of many movies I see people who are
[00:21:17] extremely hard on surprisingly
[00:21:19] don't mind and I'm like no no no
[00:21:21] no if you're gonna be hard on all these other
[00:21:23] movies you're gonna be hard on this
[00:21:25] so yeah Robert
[00:21:27] sachet was
[00:21:29] a little story crafter for both
[00:21:31] alien and the original avp
[00:21:33] and
[00:21:35] he optioned
[00:21:37] he worked with dan o'mannon on a bunch of other stuff
[00:21:39] including dead and buried where banan just
[00:21:41] put his name on it so it would sell
[00:21:43] as well as writing other stuff like
[00:21:45] the final terror above the law
[00:21:47] king kong libs and then optioning
[00:21:49] total recall
[00:21:51] so
[00:21:53] as well as minority report before it got
[00:21:55] numerous rewrites and became a spin word project
[00:21:57] so he was part of the whole filip k
[00:21:59] dick universe
[00:22:01] you can tell
[00:22:03] I'm really surprised when Gibson wasn't involved
[00:22:05] with this in some way he was probably too busy
[00:22:07] working on alien free
[00:22:09] which is a far worse
[00:22:11] movie if you ask me
[00:22:15] I don't mind the creature effects in it but
[00:22:17] it does take its sweet ass time in that god damn
[00:22:19] prison where you're just like
[00:22:21] waiting
[00:22:23] I have my other reasons especially
[00:22:25] the opening
[00:22:27] don't get me wrong that's unforgivable
[00:22:29] I pretty much
[00:22:31] was just
[00:22:33] and those were both
[00:22:35] just obscure cable tv
[00:22:37] viewings just that like three in the morning
[00:22:39] on like spike tv so it is interesting
[00:22:41] how these movies are
[00:22:43] just kind of show up once a while
[00:22:45] and they got some fanfare
[00:22:47] but they're kind of still
[00:22:49] of the infamous notoriety
[00:22:51] but this one I don't see
[00:22:54] this one I don't see too many shit on it
[00:22:56] as they did back in the day
[00:22:58] so it seems like
[00:23:00] if you're a milio fan
[00:23:02] it's worth it
[00:23:04] but mainly it's going to be just fun
[00:23:06] from a cyberpunk sci-fi angle
[00:23:08] but don't expect
[00:23:10] altered carbon or terminator level
[00:23:12] like sci and stuff
[00:23:14] but it could have made it could have made an
[00:23:16] easy episode twilight zone
[00:23:18] or maybe even star trek
[00:23:21] I can even see that
[00:23:23] with data card
[00:23:25] and they're trapped in time you're like what the hell is going on
[00:23:29] yeah I can actually see it as twilight zone episode actually
[00:23:31] there you go
[00:23:33] it's literally narrates
[00:23:35] and says and remember drive safely
[00:23:37] oh
[00:23:39] maybe even outer limits given the body swiping
[00:23:45] yeah
[00:23:47] probably more fitting with that one
[00:23:49] especially the 90s they would have been all over
[00:23:51] make it as quiet as you can
[00:23:56] showtime asked for it we'll give it to them
[00:24:00] yeah no I'm
[00:24:02] the comic's worth a read
[00:24:04] it is impossible to find online
[00:24:06] so
[00:24:08] I just got my copy off ebay
[00:24:10] at a discounted price
[00:24:12] and it was a fun read
[00:24:14] I think it's a fun read also
[00:24:16] because like you do not have to watch this movie
[00:24:18] at all to understand it
[00:24:20] but
[00:24:24] it's literally like the first
[00:24:26] act of the movie and more emphasis
[00:24:28] on like the body swapping
[00:24:30] and everything and then kind of
[00:24:32] again just more of the
[00:24:34] more of the explanation of Hopkins
[00:24:36] scientist character but
[00:24:40] much like the other movie we'll get to in just a bit
[00:24:42] I'm really surprised at the lack of cursing
[00:24:44] because usually it seems like anything
[00:24:46] based on its rating they would just go for it
[00:24:48] and people were okay with it because they
[00:24:50] actually open up a page to know
[00:24:52] if it was offensive or not
[00:24:56] but yeah I didn't
[00:24:58] see much language
[00:25:05] pretty funny
[00:25:07] I have to read it one day
[00:25:09] yeah
[00:25:11] just make sure you did what I did and make an offer
[00:25:13] don't pay more than 20
[00:25:17] all together
[00:25:23] so under our next feature
[00:25:25] it is the one the only D man
[00:25:31] so
[00:25:33] this was on TBS
[00:25:35] TNT non-stop
[00:25:37] and more recently BBC
[00:25:39] America I wish I was making that up
[00:25:41] I guess because Nigel Hawthorne is the villain
[00:25:43] I don't beat it
[00:25:47] I guess that's why
[00:25:49] I know they were playing it when they are now
[00:25:51] it is funny seeing it
[00:25:53] it is not as distracting as die hard 2
[00:25:55] but it does have some moments
[00:25:57] where they so did not say that
[00:25:59] or why is that word offensive
[00:26:03] I would like to see if any other network
[00:26:05] does a different
[00:26:07] for TV edit
[00:26:09] can they at least still say shit
[00:26:11] better yet put it on Comedy Central
[00:26:13] that would be perfect
[00:26:15] the uncut movie of the night
[00:26:21] I actually went to watch Comedy Central for once
[00:26:23] there you go
[00:26:25] if you do a Stallone roast
[00:26:27] you will have to show scenes from this
[00:26:29] obviously
[00:26:31] all together
[00:26:33] I love Zondy Blok in this movie
[00:26:37] I love Bob Gunton even more on this
[00:26:39] before he was playing presidential age
[00:26:41] and rich businessmen tycoons
[00:26:43] this is literally two years
[00:26:45] actually a year
[00:26:47] of R.J. Schaenker's redemption
[00:26:49] as the evil warden
[00:26:51] it is just so wild
[00:26:53] because I see so much
[00:26:55] of this
[00:26:57] despicable villain
[00:26:59] using a criminal
[00:27:01] to make a pretentious point
[00:27:03] on their war on crime
[00:27:05] tactic for their congressmen
[00:27:07] constituents
[00:27:09] this is still happening
[00:27:11] this dude is practically Ron DeSantis
[00:27:13] instead of exploiting
[00:27:15] illegal immigrants
[00:27:17] he is just
[00:27:19] taking criminals from the past
[00:27:21] and defreezing them
[00:27:26] disappointedly to say
[00:27:28] the comic is fun
[00:27:30] you can read that online on any free comic
[00:27:32] book site
[00:27:34] it's a four parter
[00:27:37] I will get into it
[00:27:39] I think everyone has just about
[00:27:41] covered this movie
[00:27:43] so much
[00:27:45] long story short
[00:27:47] Joel Silver wanted another T2
[00:27:49] die hard
[00:27:51] blockbuster
[00:27:53] taking scenes from it
[00:27:55] after breaking the director's spirit
[00:27:57] he never did a movie again
[00:27:59] maybe two music videos
[00:28:01] I think that's sad
[00:28:03] because he did show he had talent here
[00:28:05] yeah
[00:28:07] there is a hysterical article where
[00:28:09] Stuart Barrett, yes future
[00:28:11] editor
[00:28:13] he was still working for Joel Silver
[00:28:15] he would fix anything that needed it
[00:28:17] he just recalls Joel is very enthusiastic
[00:28:19] and yells quite a lot
[00:28:21] I don't take anything
[00:28:23] bad from it
[00:28:25] I know what he wants
[00:28:27] it's very blunt
[00:28:29] I'm sorry it was a chaotic film set
[00:28:31] but more recently
[00:28:33] more people have talked about
[00:28:35] how there are a shit ton of deleted scenes
[00:28:37] that have never seen the light of day
[00:28:39] reportedly more that featured
[00:28:41] Jesse Ventura
[00:28:43] I'm just going to say the comic book has
[00:28:46] because sometimes an original draft
[00:28:48] is adapted into a comic there was nothing
[00:28:50] no more extended scenes of the sewer
[00:28:52] or anything just more
[00:28:54] focus on playing
[00:28:56] up Wesley Snipes and
[00:28:58] Stallone's characters
[00:29:00] and once again surprisingly very little language
[00:29:04] so more of the top violence
[00:29:06] but nothing robocop level
[00:29:10] so would you want to live in
[00:29:12] something crazy future like this
[00:29:14] besides not at all
[00:29:16] I was going to say hell no
[00:29:20] but this is
[00:29:22] it's also funny about this one
[00:29:24] cancel culture
[00:29:26] well that's one
[00:29:28] two
[00:29:30] this is one of the few films that made me tell
[00:29:32] me Rob Schneider
[00:29:34] this is only good movie
[00:29:36] oh man
[00:29:38] odd take
[00:29:40] do you consider
[00:29:42] this is Stallone's demolition man
[00:29:44] to be in the same universe
[00:29:48] which one
[00:29:50] Stallone did his version
[00:29:52] of Judge Dredd
[00:29:54] running gag
[00:29:56] fans are it's more of a
[00:29:58] demolition man part two
[00:30:00] than it is a Judge Dredd
[00:30:02] adaptation
[00:30:04] that's true
[00:30:06] I mean this has satire for one
[00:30:08] and it is legit satire
[00:30:10] don't get me wrong some jokes don't land
[00:30:12] and you are going to say yeah that's just
[00:30:14] that's an SNL or Monty Python
[00:30:16] or last action
[00:30:18] hero skit that wasn't 100%
[00:30:20] but I think this made money
[00:30:22] let's check
[00:30:24] I believe
[00:30:26] it had a video game I know
[00:30:31] let me see
[00:30:33] what was the budget for it
[00:30:35] he's claiming 45 to 77
[00:30:37] since it ends with 77
[00:30:39] I'm going to just say that's the final budget
[00:30:43] and it grossed
[00:30:45] oh plenty 159.1
[00:30:47] yeah that's a hit
[00:30:49] yeah
[00:30:51] I can say that
[00:30:53] those are features
[00:30:55] I would mention
[00:30:57] I know it's kind of close
[00:30:59] to almost my favorite was this nice performance
[00:31:01] in Slime and Phoenix
[00:31:03] yeah you really can't spell it without it
[00:31:05] it is just
[00:31:07] fabulous
[00:31:09] it's just a
[00:31:11] perfect choice for that villain
[00:31:13] I can't see anybody else playing him
[00:31:17] he's on fire
[00:31:19] my uncle
[00:31:21] who was a big fan of all these kinds of cult
[00:31:23] movies growing up he would
[00:31:25] anytime
[00:31:27] it was on TV or we just mentioned the movie
[00:31:29] he would reference the scene where there
[00:31:31] Wesley hits him
[00:31:33] or Stallone hits him
[00:31:35] with the TV set by the telephone cord
[00:31:37] and says you're on TV
[00:31:41] I instantly got it was talking about
[00:31:43] it was just one of those
[00:31:45] you got to be a huge movie buff
[00:31:47] my parents favorite movie is The Inlaws
[00:31:49] so I would always just
[00:31:51] years before I even saw it quote the movie
[00:31:53] Bucketable
[00:31:57] the original not the remake
[00:32:01] Peter Linkov is
[00:32:03] a great screenwriter on this
[00:32:05] and you've probably seen all kinds of stuff
[00:32:07] from him he rewrote Polisticex
[00:32:09] vs. Sever
[00:32:10] he has done
[00:32:12] presumably uncredited
[00:32:14] rewrites on plenty
[00:32:16] of Polly Shore and Carrot Top movies
[00:32:18] so yeah if you want to see
[00:32:20] Charon on board or Jury Duties
[00:32:22] be my guest because I would
[00:32:24] recommend anyone see those
[00:32:26] as I said they're son of law too
[00:32:28] because no
[00:32:30] Demolition Man is his best movie
[00:32:32] he's a way
[00:32:34] and he worked with Christian Slater
[00:32:36] and Vol Kilmer a bit on
[00:32:38] Pursued which was a movie that no one saw
[00:32:40] then 13 which became
[00:32:42] a show but he did the mini
[00:32:44] series part and then R.I.P.D.
[00:32:48] not the best
[00:32:50] track record
[00:32:52] pretty iffy he seems like
[00:32:54] a nice guy but he lately
[00:32:56] after doing
[00:32:58] being part of the writers room for the district
[00:33:00] season 424 in CSI New York
[00:33:02] he created what he calls
[00:33:04] his link of universe with
[00:33:06] the reboots of MacGyver
[00:33:08] and Hawaii Five-O and Magnum
[00:33:11] I'll say
[00:33:13] the first part of that's not bad
[00:33:15] good dynamite action I could live without
[00:33:17] the new MacGyver is watchable
[00:33:19] but it's kind of like how
[00:33:21] you look at some of these other rehashes where it's like
[00:33:23] ehh the more I look
[00:33:25] at it the more I'm just reminded of how much
[00:33:27] better the OG was
[00:33:30] yeah and Magnum you'll
[00:33:32] like or hate either
[00:33:34] also but yeah
[00:33:36] he was kind of the king of syndicated
[00:33:38] TV for a while including LaFinn Nikita
[00:33:40] The Hunger
[00:33:42] the pro TV show
[00:33:44] I'd say his best work
[00:33:46] is probably that CBS TV movie
[00:33:48] Parker Kane which was directed
[00:33:50] by some lethal weapons second unit guys
[00:33:52] star Jeff Fahey, Marissa Tame
[00:33:54] Caruso and it was so popular
[00:33:56] got here twice boom
[00:33:58] do you probably know
[00:34:00] them best from those
[00:34:02] Zunisoul TV movies
[00:34:04] oh
[00:34:06] yeah
[00:34:08] I didn't even want to think about
[00:34:10] those at all
[00:34:12] oh
[00:34:14] I love making fun of them
[00:34:16] but they're not good
[00:34:18] plenty of people aren't crazy about
[00:34:20] I hate to say this Stallone or Snipes
[00:34:22] and I even see people call
[00:34:24] Sandra Bullock overrated and I'm like
[00:34:26] she's awesome but
[00:34:28] I did see some people say they didn't care for
[00:34:30] Schneider in this but I think they're
[00:34:32] mistaking the fact that they know who he is
[00:34:34] now versus then
[00:34:36] and I'm like he doesn't interfere
[00:34:38] he's better in this
[00:34:40] versus Judge Dredd
[00:34:42] where he's just annoying as well
[00:34:44] obnoxious
[00:34:46] oh man will not shut up
[00:34:48] he's only in like
[00:34:50] three scenes
[00:34:52] so
[00:34:54] at least three scenes folks
[00:34:56] it's not much of a film
[00:35:00] oh man
[00:35:02] it's also interesting to see my bedroom
[00:35:04] Brad show up here
[00:35:06] yeah he has the best shit eating grin the whole time
[00:35:08] yes
[00:35:10] yes
[00:35:12] which is funny because
[00:35:14] then him and Sandra would be your
[00:35:16] knights Ms. Kenji Hawley
[00:35:18] yeah
[00:35:20] I saw this
[00:35:22] Ms. Kenji Hawley so yeah
[00:35:24] good call
[00:35:26] so this would have been
[00:35:28] a year before
[00:35:30] Clearing Presence Danger and a few years before
[00:35:32] Long Order so yeah
[00:35:34] it's interesting seeing how this was kind of
[00:35:36] because
[00:35:38] I heard John Lugazamo about
[00:35:40] two years ago when I Conan O'Brien podcast
[00:35:42] interview talk about how he would go
[00:35:44] during the late 80s early 90s
[00:35:46] he would just go
[00:35:48] set to set audition to audition
[00:35:50] he'd keep running into both
[00:35:52] Benishield El Toro and
[00:35:54] Benjamin Brad and they would just joke with each other
[00:35:56] what do you audition for? The stupid friend
[00:35:58] or the gangbanger's role
[00:36:00] or some other bullshit villain role
[00:36:02] so
[00:36:04] he is just he must just have
[00:36:06] a very decent agent because
[00:36:08] I'd say he's doing a pretty good job
[00:36:10] if he's had a lot of recurring TV roles
[00:36:12] he's just now doing villain roles
[00:36:14] and no one remembers
[00:36:16] something that he couldn't save like
[00:36:19] the
[00:36:40] yeah
[00:36:42] unlike Waterworld you do not get more of them
[00:36:44] but yeah he is one of Dennis Leary's
[00:36:47] I still would say
[00:36:49] his best role is Judgement Night
[00:36:51] yeah there you go same night
[00:36:53] same year
[00:36:57] this is a fun role for him
[00:36:59] he wishes he was in a moa but
[00:37:01] everything else he kind of plays
[00:37:03] a version of Dennis Leary
[00:37:05] or essentially does a stand up act
[00:37:07] because no one was giving him
[00:37:09] much to do or just kind of
[00:37:11] but I've always
[00:37:13] much like admired certain music artists
[00:37:15] I mean we were talking to Mick Jagger
[00:37:17] he was pretty much pulling iced tea there
[00:37:19] no bullshit just get to it
[00:37:21] yeah I dug
[00:37:23] how he just essentially
[00:37:25] just
[00:37:27] in this just
[00:37:29] he said only what needed to be
[00:37:31] said and
[00:37:33] he's kind of putting everyone on the spot
[00:37:35] which is weird
[00:37:37] you would think he wants to be the center
[00:37:39] of attention but I'm sure he had
[00:37:41] heard stories about Stallone and company he's like
[00:37:43] yeah no I'm not going to fuck around with this guy
[00:37:45] dude can't take a joke
[00:37:47] I have seen Peter Linkov
[00:37:49] I think post on his Instagram
[00:37:51] just photos of him reuniting with Stallone
[00:37:57] I'm sure he has fun stories
[00:37:59] about it but
[00:38:01] I'm sure
[00:38:03] yeah I
[00:38:06] altogether it doesn't seem like
[00:38:08] it was clearly hated
[00:38:10] at the time but I don't think people
[00:38:12] bash it nowadays compared to Free Jack where some people still got some bad blood against it
[00:38:18] yeah that's something I actually feel it's one of Stallone's best films
[00:38:21] I mean he would find out
[00:38:23] well he'd flat out
[00:38:25] is like referencing everything
[00:38:27] like his beret he would use
[00:38:29] in his penples and then
[00:38:31] I mean come on he was already a beret
[00:38:33] so to speak in Rambo so I mean
[00:38:35] I
[00:38:37] yeah I
[00:38:40] it's pretty hard to fault this movie and
[00:38:42] I
[00:38:44] considering all the problems behind the scenes
[00:38:46] I really wish more stuff
[00:38:48] could come behind the scenes I wouldn't even be
[00:38:50] surprised if Stallone
[00:38:52] cut out most of
[00:38:54] adventurous stuff saying he's not an actor
[00:38:56] so
[00:38:58] but yeah no
[00:39:00] if there's an extended Shout Factory
[00:39:02] Blu-ray I'll purchase it
[00:39:04] no problem it's
[00:39:06] I think it's here on
[00:39:08] yeah I don't care if it's 150 bucks
[00:39:10] I will do it call me
[00:39:12] mad but yeah it's a
[00:39:14] my mother has even
[00:39:16] joked about how you could literally do
[00:39:18] a chick flick action session
[00:39:20] double feature
[00:39:22] with both speed and demolish
[00:39:24] that would be
[00:39:26] agreeable and then have Miss
[00:39:28] Congenialia's dessert so I'm like perfect
[00:39:30] I'll take it
[00:39:32] kick an ass
[00:39:34] I don't have anything else
[00:39:36] I applaud the stunts and fights
[00:39:38] they moved the movie forward
[00:39:40] in a terminator way without slowing
[00:39:42] it down or feeling like
[00:39:44] it could easily go away like even the
[00:39:46] TV scene is funny because that
[00:39:48] just reminds us
[00:39:50] that hey you know
[00:39:52] the villain's gonna keep being a
[00:39:54] rascal and the hero's gonna
[00:39:56] kudos to even just how they
[00:39:58] play it here like
[00:40:00] Stallone could have been taken as way too
[00:40:02] serious and killed the momentum and
[00:40:04] he kind of actually
[00:40:06] goes along with the cast
[00:40:08] and I mean
[00:40:10] all their lines are really awesome I
[00:40:12] don't feel like they ever
[00:40:14] at this point he was definitely
[00:40:16] hurting and so I think he just
[00:40:18] said that point was just like hey I just want to
[00:40:20] work with some fun people
[00:40:22] do something that isn't me
[00:40:24] and that works
[00:40:26] it's not like Vin Diesel
[00:40:28] well oh yeah
[00:40:30] he takes everything seriously
[00:40:32] and then he does it so he can do
[00:40:34] Riddick and then still at the same time
[00:40:36] has to be a prima donna but I'm like dude
[00:40:38] you don't even want to do these movies life is too
[00:40:40] short to be an asshole
[00:40:42] and now The Rock's coming back to him because
[00:40:44] he's made too many gambles that didn't pay off
[00:40:46] so it was just like well what the hell so now
[00:40:48] that might be the only franchise
[00:40:50] where the money payday
[00:40:52] is so blatant and yet somehow no one
[00:40:54] cares I don't understand
[00:40:56] oh man
[00:40:58] I'll never get that either
[00:41:00] that's
[00:41:02] whatever no like I said this is one of
[00:41:04] the ones that I've always
[00:41:06] felt was underappreciated
[00:41:08] at the time I mean now it's
[00:41:10] more beloved
[00:41:12] than now most people
[00:41:14] but
[00:41:16] it still holds up to this day
[00:41:18] compared to some that don't
[00:41:20] quite hold up as well as you
[00:41:22] think they do yeah
[00:41:24] did they even give a year for this?
[00:41:26] I see
[00:41:28] Demolition Man
[00:41:30] is in the year
[00:41:32] 2032
[00:41:34] oh wow
[00:41:38] One Wicca
[00:41:40] PD article claims this is a dodge from
[00:41:42] Brave New World what the fuck
[00:41:44] are they talking about? No
[00:41:46] not even remotely close
[00:41:48] it's like a satire spoof of it
[00:41:50] but this has as much to do
[00:41:52] as a boy and his dog as it does
[00:41:54] to Brave New World what are you talking about?
[00:41:58] I understand
[00:42:00] all the Blade Runner cops with the fancy
[00:42:02] guns and armored suits
[00:42:04] and again the total recall
[00:42:06] vibes the whole running around
[00:42:08] stop basically
[00:42:10] all these cops those predicted cops
[00:42:12] also they are flat out militia
[00:42:14] police
[00:42:16] oh man
[00:42:18] the car chase at the end is kind
[00:42:20] of funny I actually like how Stallone
[00:42:22] just keeps getting his ass kicked and
[00:42:24] just adds to the fun because you're just like
[00:42:26] man what is he going to do that is going
[00:42:28] to change differently?
[00:42:30] That also doesn't make him invincible
[00:42:32] like some
[00:42:34] analysts would do
[00:42:36] like no I can't get my ass kicked
[00:42:38] if he had an ego
[00:42:40] on this or the specialist
[00:42:42] somehow no one talks about it
[00:42:44] I don't know if he was just getting burned out in the 90s
[00:42:46] but I'd rather know about those versus
[00:42:48] all the other movies which everyone has talked about
[00:42:50] thanks to IMDB and
[00:42:52] infamous movie books
[00:42:54] I've heard enough about him
[00:42:56] directing uncredited
[00:42:58] reshoots of Cobra
[00:43:00] in 3.1.2 I want to know about
[00:43:02] the making of this with
[00:43:04] specialists I don't care about any of that or
[00:43:06] it's like this specialist and assassins
[00:43:08] for me oh yes assassins
[00:43:10] I'm more interested in the making of
[00:43:12] absolutely I want to know if
[00:43:14] he and Richard Donner did or didn't get along
[00:43:16] I want to know how it was working with
[00:43:18] Banderas
[00:43:20] Wachowski's yeah
[00:43:22] good call on that hell maybe even a good
[00:43:24] Carter sword might be interesting even though I could
[00:43:26] run without that one
[00:43:28] oh man but then again it's been a minute
[00:43:30] so maybe I'll rewatch it
[00:43:32] maybe one day
[00:43:34] yeah I will oh no
[00:43:36] so we wouldn't want to live
[00:43:38] in either of these futures
[00:43:40] but Demolition Man's kind of seems fun
[00:43:42] because basically
[00:43:44] Simon Phoenix just unleashes all the criminals
[00:43:48] it kind of almost
[00:43:50] I don't know why I kind of get a Joe Dante
[00:43:52] vibe from it just kind of like inner space or something
[00:43:54] just the executives are just so
[00:43:56] ruthless they and themselves are kind of funny
[00:44:00] I didn't think about that
[00:44:02] the whole just giant cover
[00:44:04] up and yet because it's literally
[00:44:06] a live action Looney Tunes cartoon it kind of just
[00:44:08] goes for it but
[00:44:10] in a good way
[00:44:12] sometimes when they try to go that
[00:44:14] route and it's pathetic
[00:44:16] we were reviewing Willow
[00:44:18] the other night and we were joking how some of the humor
[00:44:20] varies by audience
[00:44:24] but yeah no this one seems
[00:44:26] pretty nice
[00:44:30] well while looking for stolen facts
[00:44:32] I saw that he considers
[00:44:34] Get Carter in his most underrated movie
[00:44:36] I don't know what he's talking about but
[00:44:38] I will happily disagree
[00:44:40] Simon
[00:44:42] I will put assassins on that list
[00:44:44] not Get Carter
[00:44:46] I mean I'll watch anything over
[00:44:48] I don't know driven or
[00:44:50] we can
[00:44:52] I just haven't seen
[00:44:54] oh man that was on UPN
[00:44:56] nonstop back in the day and I was like
[00:44:58] why it who was allowed to make
[00:45:00] this movie oh
[00:45:02] Junidrushin, Rudi Harlan and franchise
[00:45:04] pitchers oh
[00:45:06] but
[00:45:08] yeah so
[00:45:10] I mean to call this
[00:45:12] as bad as
[00:45:14] you know stop for my model shoot which
[00:45:16] I've happily only seen 10 minutes
[00:45:18] of on TNT and I will
[00:45:20] I saw the whole thing
[00:45:22] yeah
[00:45:24] I don't know why
[00:45:26] it is pretty unwatchable
[00:45:28] I know some people try to
[00:45:30] campaign for it I will say
[00:45:32] take some more Ritalin
[00:45:36] I know you might like on Golden Girls but
[00:45:38] it's not the same thing
[00:45:40] yeah
[00:45:42] watch Golden Girls any day over the
[00:45:44] ship
[00:45:46] funny
[00:45:48] there you go
[00:45:50] oh man
[00:45:52] so
[00:45:54] so one was
[00:45:56] a hit the other wasn't ironically the
[00:45:58] one that made a bunch of money
[00:46:00] it's pretty well liked
[00:46:02] if
[00:46:04] you were to introduce this to people
[00:46:06] how would you promote it
[00:46:08] to him going in
[00:46:11] hmm
[00:46:13] it's the future but it's kind of funny
[00:46:15] and they
[00:46:17] they find you every time you say a curse word
[00:46:19] even
[00:46:21] I'll be on one pitch
[00:46:23] or say like well
[00:46:25] if you think about cancer culture
[00:46:27] watch this movie because it's basically
[00:46:29] you know
[00:46:31] introduce to the cancer culture
[00:46:35] oh man
[00:46:37] this basically started
[00:46:39] that but
[00:46:41] it didn't attend to
[00:46:43] no but I mean
[00:46:45] hell half these Twilight
[00:46:47] Zone episodes are becoming true
[00:46:49] half these features
[00:46:51] we're predicting are even more on the money
[00:46:53] but I got to at least hand
[00:46:55] it to ones who are deciding
[00:46:57] hey you know just
[00:46:59] what if you had
[00:47:01] just literally no rights the police
[00:47:03] control everything and
[00:47:05] kudos to them for finding a way
[00:47:07] to make it funny
[00:47:09] while also serious like
[00:47:11] I never feel like it's running out of steam
[00:47:13] or like any of the elements don't fade
[00:47:15] into each other this isn't like
[00:47:17] half the I don't know
[00:47:19] 90s movies where you watch
[00:47:21] with Tom Hanks or Jim Carrey or
[00:47:23] Eddie Murphy and then
[00:47:25] once it gets serious the last 20 minutes to
[00:47:27] wrap everything up then you're like
[00:47:29] I could do without that I'd rather you be mindless
[00:47:33] but doesn't try to preach to you like
[00:47:35] some movies would oh yeah
[00:47:37] there is nothing
[00:47:39] that's sort of here
[00:47:41] it's not confused in tone
[00:47:43] it doesn't just say like all cops are bad
[00:47:45] if anything it's a spoof of
[00:47:47] cops basically
[00:47:49] they are watching this 24 7
[00:47:51] most dangerous criminals oh really
[00:47:53] most dangerous criminals and I love how they even
[00:47:55] make fun of is like where else
[00:47:57] were we gonna go in the sewer and they still
[00:47:59] want to drive them out of the sewer
[00:48:01] the police squad
[00:48:03] they're like an incompetent version
[00:48:05] of the fear mongering ones
[00:48:07] and kind of dawn of the dead kind of
[00:48:11] they are all they are all threatening
[00:48:13] to shoot people on sight unless they come
[00:48:15] with them and they say it
[00:48:17] nicely come with me
[00:48:19] or I'm gonna drop you
[00:48:25] uh but um
[00:48:29] even though it kind of gets a little silly like
[00:48:31] let's be honest
[00:48:33] someone gets frozen near the end
[00:48:35] and it's a total t2 knock off
[00:48:37] but I don't mind that
[00:48:39] I love that yeah no it's fun
[00:48:41] but compared to other movies where
[00:48:43] they would try and you know
[00:48:45] ape t2 or even
[00:48:47] back to the future like this one just kind of
[00:48:51] it's just very fucking funny now when I watch
[00:48:53] it because it's not that
[00:48:55] it's fake or anything it's just
[00:48:57] it's just an over the top death
[00:48:59] good lord
[00:49:01] that's what you love
[00:49:03] that's what you love with the villain deaths
[00:49:05] that's what they used to have nowadays
[00:49:07] you rarely see that now
[00:49:09] what do you think we're doing all the villain specials on this show
[00:49:13] yeah so I guess
[00:49:15] now I say nowadays it's more
[00:49:17] about oh no we gotta be
[00:49:19] sympathize with the villains
[00:49:21] we gotta make them good guys I'm like for god's sake
[00:49:23] no
[00:49:25] we call them villains for a reason
[00:49:27] yeah they did that with guardians free
[00:49:29] I'm like okay I'm sorry for your RoboCop
[00:49:31] contraption why did you
[00:49:33] become Dr. Morale with your
[00:49:35] animal farm
[00:49:37] but
[00:49:39] it's a ligerator
[00:49:41] but I'm just yeah it seems like
[00:49:43] post dark night everybody wants the
[00:49:45] tragic villain angle but
[00:49:47] you know it's just like unless you're gonna be
[00:49:49] so deep or pick a
[00:49:51] perfect actor and really outline
[00:49:53] this with the villain I really don't want to know
[00:49:55] I'd be perfectly fine with a tragic
[00:49:57] version of Hans Gruber or even Hannibal Lecter
[00:49:59] but don't I don't know
[00:50:01] don't do what they do on the blacklist where
[00:50:03] he just blew up like 20 FBI agents
[00:50:05] and then he's still they're trying to make us like him
[00:50:07] I'm like what are you just
[00:50:09] trying to just push people off and
[00:50:11] divide them for the hell of it
[00:50:13] I mean the one example I always give is
[00:50:15] the one villain well
[00:50:17] you basically you sympathize with
[00:50:19] him somewhat even though
[00:50:21] when he's doing this wrong was Ed Harris
[00:50:23] in The Rock but you'll at least understand
[00:50:25] what he's doing there. Oh yes
[00:50:27] that yeah there's no
[00:50:29] way that is a rare
[00:50:31] mixture of
[00:50:33] I mean that movie got the criterion
[00:50:35] for that's like so yeah
[00:50:37] that but yes that is
[00:50:39] the perfect tragic villain who
[00:50:41] you can understand why he's angry
[00:50:43] or at least do a dog day afternoon
[00:50:45] scenario where okay he's not
[00:50:47] he does not he legit
[00:50:49] does not want to kill anyone he's just using the gun as
[00:50:51] an empty fret you know
[00:50:53] there could be zero bullets in it for all we fucking know
[00:50:55] until like Act Free but
[00:50:57] yeah just I would be more
[00:50:59] interested in like
[00:51:01] a movie that starts out with a hitman and
[00:51:03] he's losing his shit and he's just crying
[00:51:05] he's like I don't want to do this you know see I'm
[00:51:07] all intrigued already because now I know okay
[00:51:09] this is not a macho movie this is
[00:51:11] not even a typical
[00:51:13] assassin film this is a guy with some
[00:51:15] problems
[00:51:17] oh yeah
[00:51:19] an average episode right out
[00:51:21] of an alfton starts with him saying
[00:51:23] you're staying alone in this hotel
[00:51:25] better not see a dead hooker when I come back
[00:51:27] an average episode of power is
[00:51:31] I wonder who's going to do something more fucked up the
[00:51:35] rookie district federal attorney or
[00:51:37] the nightclub owner or
[00:51:39] the guy who wants to kill the nightclub
[00:51:41] owner so yeah
[00:51:43] if you want to make it cartoonish or even deliberately
[00:51:45] trashy just go for it but don't
[00:51:47] just be confused in your
[00:51:49] ethics or you're like wait a second I thought
[00:51:51] you didn't want us to like them now
[00:51:53] because kind of like them yeah
[00:51:55] yeah it's just the one problem with
[00:51:57] how they fight nowadays
[00:51:59] some of the ones it just bugs me all the time
[00:52:03] it's like they're still in comic book mode
[00:52:05] I'm like well it would totally work as a
[00:52:07] comic book it wouldn't work as a movie
[00:52:09] but we're not in a comic book
[00:52:11] right different media
[00:52:13] TV I think it's shit on a little too much
[00:52:17] but what do I know I've just always discovered cool movies there so maybe I'm biased but
[00:52:21] I mean this became a video game I can only imagine
[00:52:25] how simple it is just to play as probably
[00:52:28] I bet Wesley Snipes and beating people up
[00:52:31] one mission and then the next mission beams
[00:52:33] Stallone beating up you know gang bangers in a sewer
[00:52:36] so yeah I like how
[00:52:39] they don't even use a fugitive aspect to this
[00:52:42] no
[00:52:45] they don't even do the whole just come to my office
[00:52:48] so the captain can derail you and he's like no
[00:52:50] it's pretty much once he's out
[00:52:52] he's out and they want to utilize him
[00:52:55] but also kudos
[00:52:58] that's probably as deep as again I think that's most of the Incomps connections
[00:53:01] because anything he's worked on he often will have some sci-fi
[00:53:08] jargon and it seems like
[00:53:11] it's just so funny how the police captain from years ago
[00:53:15] decades ago only the 70s is like
[00:53:18] he's got literally the same game plan
[00:53:21] and he doesn't necessarily even know much about the crooked politicians
[00:53:25] yet he's doing the exact same formula
[00:53:27] you want to kill or cry and bring someone from the past who put him away years ago
[00:53:31] yeah
[00:53:33] and they don't even hit on it it doesn't become formulaic to where you're like
[00:53:37] okay no shit Sherlock I can write
[00:53:39] he's just like he kind of has fun he's like yes
[00:53:42] but he's the only one worth a damn or something he's just something like that
[00:53:46] something like that yeah
[00:53:51] oh man
[00:53:53] I seriously have nothing else in my brain it's just right
[00:53:57] so because this is so it's a joyful movie
[00:54:01] it's clearly not a Sunday movie would you have it as just any time of the week movie
[00:54:05] well I'd say anytime the week that's how I am
[00:54:08] we'll return after these messages
[00:54:12] hello and welcome to culture shocked the pop culture podcast brought to you by
[00:54:16] four aging millennials in our outdated opinions join us every Tuesday as we

[00:54:37] yeah and you probably haven't even told them that we're a pop culture podcast
[00:54:40] where we always agree on everything for instance the Sam Raimi trilogy easily
[00:54:45] being the best of the Spider-Man movies
[00:54:48] no no but I think we can all agree that Jaws is a classical masterpiece
[00:54:53] yeah
[00:54:55] I think we can all agree that Jaws is a classic
[00:54:58] but I think we can all agree that Jaws is a classical masterpiece
[00:55:02] mmm nope don't like that
[00:55:04] but we do all agree that the sequel trilogy of Star Wars
[00:55:07] is the best in the Skywalker saga right guys
[00:55:10] that comment is so ridiculous I don't even know where
[00:55:14] anyways that'll do it from all of us here culture shock thanks for listening

[00:56:44] blindknowledge.com
[00:56:46] now back to the feature presentation
[00:56:48] another side table chat with the one and only sci-fi fanatic
[00:56:57] Keith M. Cedor
[00:56:58] we're in the cyberpunk futures
[00:57:00] a different kind
[00:57:01] all right have it your way at Burger King you rule
[00:57:06] I am sounding like the get off my lawn you kids guy now
[00:57:10] it's okay
[00:57:11] no it's not
[00:57:14] why is it not okay
[00:57:16] because that would mean I'm getting old and out of touch
[00:57:18] and I don't want to be that guy ever
[00:57:19] welcome to my club dude
[00:57:21] we're all gonna get old
[00:57:22] until I don't know Dr. Soong creates a time travel platform
[00:57:27] that gives us mortality
[00:57:28] I don't know anyway
[00:57:29] Dr. Soong does a build time travel he builds androids
[00:57:32] he doesn't
[00:57:33] and everybody in the family looks like each other
[00:57:35] generations apart
[00:57:37] yeah because
[00:57:39] plot induced stupidity
[00:57:40] it's easy to cast the same actor and play the same different people
[00:57:47] oh I don't know
[00:57:48] but anyway so
[00:57:50] speaking of burgers and ads and bizarre viral campaigns and all this macho shit
[00:57:55] when we're talking freejack and demolition man
[00:57:59] there's a lot of burger ads in both these movies let alone corporate shit
[00:58:02] do you see a cow anywhere
[00:58:05] ask her what that burgers made of
[00:58:09] it's a rat
[00:58:10] it's a rat
[00:58:11] well it's the best rat burger I've ever had
[00:58:15] and you know the funny thing is
[00:58:16] out here on the east coast we've got White Castle
[00:58:18] we've always called them rat burgers
[00:58:21] clip the nails tucking the tails
[00:58:23] it just doesn't look like any meat
[00:58:26] I don't know but they're pretty darn good but there is a reason why they call them sliders
[00:58:35] that's all I'm saying and I'll let your imagination run away with that one
[00:58:38] I got it
[00:58:41] so when did you see either of these cyberpunk cult movies
[00:58:47] and it's funny I don't consider either of these movies to be cyberpunk
[00:58:53] do you say cyberpunk I'm thinking hackers with Matthew Lillard
[00:58:56] and a very young Angelina Jolie
[00:59:00] but yeah that's my idea of a cyberpunk movie
[00:59:05] it's actually got a cyborg in it
[00:59:09] no no that's an understatement
[00:59:11] cyberpunk refers to anything
[00:59:13] whether it's just like that
[00:59:14] I'm just saying I don't think of them as that
[00:59:17] well I actually saw both of these movies first run in the theaters in 91
[00:59:22] and 93 respectively
[00:59:26] so yeah 91 I saw Free Jack on a date
[00:59:34] and I loved the movie
[00:59:38] and you would think for as star studded the cast was with A list actors
[00:59:44] not just Emilio Estevez and Rene Russo
[00:59:48] but Anthony Hopkins
[00:59:50] this movie would not have been as critically panned as it was
[00:59:55] I mean listen I think the visual effects could have been tighter
[01:00:01] there's this one scene towards the end
[01:00:04] where they're going up an escalator in the McCandless building
[01:00:08] and you could tell how badly green screened
[01:00:11] I almost said CGI this is far too early for CGI
[01:00:14] you could tell how badly green screened that scene was
[01:00:18] because there's a lot of visual gaffes in it
[01:00:22] but if you look past that overall
[01:00:25] I think the movie was really good
[01:00:27] and it really got something right about the future
[01:00:33] I think it was off by a few years
[01:00:35] but not too terribly much
[01:00:38] because when Emilio Estevez
[01:00:41] character of Alex Furlong
[01:00:44] gets into the future
[01:00:45] and in one of those scenes that was a little more sedate
[01:00:50] and kind of hey what's going on around here
[01:00:55] he's talking to his girlfriend Julie's friend
[01:00:59] and he said what happened right here
[01:01:01] what's going on with everybody
[01:01:02] he goes things are really different now
[01:01:05] there's nobody in the middle anymore
[01:01:06] he goes there's people at the top
[01:01:10] there's people at the bottom
[01:01:11] and there's nobody in the middle
[01:01:13] I feel like we're getting there now
[01:01:18] I feel like we're not too far off from that
[01:01:20] or at least we're headed there unless we do a 180 real soon
[01:01:24] well and if anything
[01:01:26] car corporations are definitely getting more powerful
[01:01:30] I would not be surprised if someone tries some crazy
[01:01:34] claustrophobic event where they try to do a body swap
[01:01:37] or some time travel and it all goes to shit
[01:01:40] not a brain transplant
[01:01:43] a mind transplant
[01:01:45] your mind will be utterly oblivious
[01:01:48] and it's funny too because
[01:01:51] Amanda Plummer just got some amazing press
[01:01:56] for her role in Star Trek Picard season 3
[01:02:00] before that one of the roles she was very well known in
[01:02:04] was Honey Bunny in Pulp Fiction
[01:02:06] but Amanda Plummer plays the nun in Free Jack
[01:02:12] who is the first person short of the bonejackers
[01:02:15] who are trying to capture him
[01:02:18] she was the first person that Alex Furlong came into contact with
[01:02:23] in the future of 2009
[01:02:26] and for our listeners who may not have seen it recently
[01:02:29] we should mention that he was pulled from an imminent death in 1991
[01:02:34] into the future of 2009
[01:02:37] in fact, Cam what do you think?
[01:02:38] Do you think we should tell everybody a brief synopsis of the movie Free Jack
[01:02:41] for those who may not have yet seen it?
[01:02:43] I already did with the others
[01:02:46] the magic of editing
[01:02:50] don't worry about it
[01:02:53] I'll make it work
[01:02:54] this is what happens when you have a guest on the show
[01:02:56] who's used to being the EP and editor of a show
[01:03:01] and I'm just like wait should we tell this?
[01:03:02] Should we get this in there?
[01:03:03] You've already done that
[01:03:05] it's all good
[01:03:07] it keeps back my opinions
[01:03:09] it's all good
[01:03:12] go with the flow
[01:03:14] I did not recognize her at all at this time
[01:03:16] and it's so weird because I'm a big fan of hers
[01:03:18] I've seen her in all her various TV guest spots
[01:03:21] including Outer Limits, Tells From The Crypt
[01:03:23] and plenty of other movies
[01:03:25] was she the crypt keeper?
[01:03:26] no, but I wish
[01:03:29] that would have been fun
[01:03:31] yeah, it's just Hunger Games 2
[01:03:32] Free I think
[01:03:33] and all kinds of other movies
[01:03:35] and it's just interesting how
[01:03:36] all these other actors is like
[01:03:38] whoa
[01:03:39] where did that performance come from?
[01:03:41] and I mean that in a good way
[01:03:42] like Isai Morales as the Jagger's main intern
[01:03:45] didn't recognize him
[01:03:47] well I knew him
[01:03:48] but I was like
[01:03:49] where did that performance come from?
[01:03:51] he's just so unrecognizable here
[01:03:52] compared to the Mr. Procedural serious guy he often is
[01:03:55] I have not nor will I ever divulge any information for this organization
[01:03:58] and frankly I'm surprised you wouldn't even test me
[01:04:03] I'm not testing you Ripper
[01:04:05] I'm testing the machine
[01:04:06] and it works
[01:04:07] now I know you're saying that's more than you
[01:04:09] oh dude, I could quote this movie chapter and verse
[01:04:12] I haven't watched it in a little while
[01:04:14] so it might be off of my dialogue a little bit
[01:04:17] but by and large I got this in my head
[01:04:20] the 2B RIP was really good
[01:04:22] what's that?
[01:04:23] the 2B RIP was really pristine
[01:04:24] really awesome
[01:04:25] like really upgraded
[01:04:26] it didn't look like it
[01:04:27] oh really?
[01:04:28] it's better than the DVD?
[01:04:30] I mean it's even on Blu-ray
[01:04:32] but I mean
[01:04:33] well when I first got my own copy of the movie
[01:04:38] it was on DVD
[01:04:39] so maybe I need to get a better copy on Blu-ray
[01:04:42] is it a snap case like Warner used to do a lot of?
[01:04:46] oh yeah yeah
[01:04:47] nice
[01:04:48] straight up
[01:04:49] why do you think people pick on Mick Jagger in this?
[01:04:52] he plays it so straight
[01:04:54] unlike anyone else
[01:04:55] like had this been Madonna or I don't know Alice Cooper or someone else
[01:04:59] that's funny
[01:05:00] I knew that overall the movie got panned
[01:05:04] I don't remember any specific actor
[01:05:08] I think now that you're saying it
[01:05:10] now that I'm playing it back
[01:05:12] he was the main one that picked on
[01:05:13] I think the reason Mick Jagger got panned was not for his performance
[01:05:18] but that for one of his
[01:05:20] if not his very first performance in a movie
[01:05:24] he picked a stinker to become a part of
[01:05:26] okay so it was guilty by the search for it
[01:05:28] and I say that kind of tongue in cheek
[01:05:30] because in my opinion this movie is not a stinker
[01:05:32] I mean are there things that could have been tightened up a bit?
[01:05:35] yes
[01:05:37] oh totally
[01:05:38] the pace is a little off but it's not bad
[01:05:40] I love this movie but I saw it in the theater
[01:05:42] and I've loved it every time I've seen it
[01:05:46] you know looking back through the lens of 30 years
[01:05:50] I'm thinking okay yeah I could see where some of the holes are
[01:05:54] but I mean even this
[01:05:57] I mean when Alex gets to the future
[01:06:00] and he finds his old manager
[01:06:04] you know he's all disheveled and run down now
[01:06:06] but they didn't have cell phones
[01:06:10] but he's on a pay phone trying to call
[01:06:14] and he's like is that Julie?
[01:06:16] is that my girlfriend? let me hear
[01:06:17] and he puts his hand over the receiver
[01:06:19] he goes dude these things can see you
[01:06:21] they can hear you
[01:06:23] if they pick up your voice
[01:06:25] they're going to know exactly where you are
[01:06:27] and listen today these things can hear you
[01:06:29] they can see you and they know where you are
[01:06:31] exactly
[01:06:32] so a little bit of the technology was off
[01:06:36] but the underlying essence under the technology got spot on
[01:06:41] oh totally because I've seen so many other 90s movies and shows
[01:06:45] that would try too hard to incorporate
[01:06:48] this is what Coca-Cola looks like
[01:06:50] this is what a boombox looks like now
[01:06:52] it's like none of this shit is going to be anywhere near exact
[01:06:55] if it's 2063 or whatever
[01:06:57] do you remember a movie with Michael Perret
[01:07:03] it was the guy who did Eddie and the Cruisers
[01:07:06] yeah I know
[01:07:07] he did a movie called the Philadelphia Experiment
[01:07:09] mm-hmm yep
[01:07:11] I remember when the two guys from the Navy who jumped ship in the middle of the experiment
[01:07:15] got into the future and they were in a diner
[01:07:18] and he goes that woman has a phone in her dress
[01:07:23] and she pulled out a cell phone
[01:07:26] yeah
[01:07:28] oh man
[01:07:30] and it is interesting how this kind of crosses over with other sci-fi ideas while going in its own direction
[01:07:39] it's considered sci-fi just because of the whole running man, total recall
[01:07:43] kind of similar just corporations just ruling the world
[01:07:46] and just advanced weaponry, militarized dystopias
[01:07:51] but it is wild how demolition man focuses more on all the poor people
[01:07:57] who are basically considered criminals, unwanted
[01:08:01] and military police
[01:08:03] would you like some Cadre Cola with that
[01:08:05] okay hold up just a minute
[01:08:08] I get it we'll get there
[01:08:12] okay so but yeah Free Jack goes more into the kind of just the fugitive vein
[01:08:18] where it's like okay you know instantly everything in the first five minutes
[01:08:22] how is he gonna get out of this shithole
[01:08:24] how is he gonna get with the woman he loves
[01:08:27] just more basic and it has more room like your earlier points to kind of just again
[01:08:34] build up and make have fun with its ideas instead of just feel rushed
[01:08:39] absolutely
[01:08:41] but man I'm still seeing again this make the worst movies of all time
[01:08:47] it's like if a bad not just a bad movie
[01:08:51] if it's a bad sci-fi movie it better be just so predictable or poorly thought out
[01:08:56] if it has ideas and just cool set design and intriguing characters I'm in
[01:09:02] I'm like I'm gonna pick on this one because they're just like oh Emilia is awful
[01:09:06] and I'm like what
[01:09:10] I think he's a little underused here despite being the lead
[01:09:14] but I can't think of any role I saw him in where he just looks like he did it in one take
[01:09:18] or relied on nepotism
[01:09:20] it seems like everyone like you say on the Mick Jagger thing
[01:09:24] everybody is kind of in Razzie's mode where if you're in a bad movie you must be bad
[01:09:28] I was like no that's bullshit there's plenty of great actors that make bad movies worthwhile
[01:09:34] and Hopkins of course picks on this
[01:09:36] and is like dude shut up you did too many Hannibal movies you can just take this as a win
[01:09:42] if you're gonna consider this the worst then you better scrub off some of those bad
[01:09:48] listen listen number one you know I love this movie
[01:09:52] but for anybody whether they like this movie or not
[01:09:56] to have considered this Anthony Hopkins worst role hasn't seen The Road to Wellville
[01:10:04] what a piece of crap that was I mean literally Cam
[01:10:08] I have never before of my own adult volition walked out of a movie ever
[01:10:18] until I saw this
[01:10:20] I can't blame you there's a lot of period two scenes
[01:10:23] the worst part about it was that the trailer for The Road to Wellville was so good
[01:10:29] and it was so star studded
[01:10:31] besides Anthony Hopkins you had John Cusack you had Dana Carve you had Bridget Fonda
[01:10:39] I mean it was an all-star cast and it was all crap
[01:10:45] I think I remember it and it is interesting how so many people act like if you stack a cast
[01:10:51] it can't fail it's like well if you forget a script you got nothing
[01:10:55] exactly
[01:10:57] but how many people just want to half ass it and I just don't know why we have to keep telling these producers this
[01:11:02] and compared to all these other movies that were coming out post total recall T2 Judgment Day
[01:11:07] it doesn't feel derivative like some of the other ones that were coming out at that same point where it's like
[01:11:12] okay I like this better when it was called such-and-such
[01:11:16] it's comfortable with itself
[01:11:18] like instead of oh look at that Mad Max Easter egg
[01:11:22] look at that other you know
[01:11:24] it was like why how we're
[01:11:28] what do you like about Free Jack Kim
[01:11:32] probably just it's a relatable love story instead of a soap opera
[01:11:37] you know it's not a gotta get the girl you know
[01:11:40] it's nothing macho or stupid it's just kind characters surviving in a hostile environment
[01:11:45] like that's everything you need
[01:11:47] you know what you put your finger right on and I agree with your assessment
[01:11:51] that's pretty much how I feel about it too
[01:11:53] that's what really depresses us nowadays is like okay stop ripping off the Dark Knight
[01:11:57] great
[01:11:59] I was good the first time you don't have to do it 200 more times and just you know
[01:12:04] what would you say if I told you that there was a proposed sequel that never got made
[01:12:13] I've been working forward to this
[01:12:15] was it going to be more than just made for TV or made into a show
[01:12:18] no regular full-on movie the title was a Free Jack 2 twice jacked
[01:12:25] would you like the premise
[01:12:28] as long as it's not a porn premise I'm down for it
[01:12:31] no no no legitimate movie
[01:12:33] a lot of the same supporting characters and actors
[01:12:39] but different protagonists
[01:12:42] so basically it starts off in the hour present again
[01:12:47] and there is a car just zipping happily down a bright sunny highway
[01:12:56] and then up ahead on the highway is a young mother and a baby in a car seat
[01:13:03] and it's kind of driving very casually
[01:13:07] and there is a tractor trailer with a big load of sewer pipes
[01:13:13] big metal sewer pipes on the back of it
[01:13:17] and one of the buckles on the straps breaks loose
[01:13:22] so now it's just kind of swaying a little bit
[01:13:26] but now because it's not fully tied down
[01:13:29] the swaying is putting extra pressure on the second buckle
[01:13:34] and then that's going along
[01:13:38] and the young mother in her car is completely oblivious to this
[01:13:45] and she's just kind of in the right side blind spot of this vehicle
[01:13:51] and then our protagonist, our hero if you will
[01:13:57] sees what's going on
[01:13:59] and he in his sports car comes zipping up the side
[01:14:04] in an attempt because now the sewer pipes are swaying back and forth
[01:14:09] and it's only a matter of moments
[01:14:12] before the third and final buckle breaks
[01:14:15] and the entire load comes and crushes this car with this young mother in it
[01:14:19] Now I know where Final Destination 2 ripped off this on-made movie
[01:14:24] all these logs falling over in the cars and crushing them
[01:14:29] but shortly after the movie came out or?
[01:14:33] Before
[01:14:35] Before? Okay, so it was scrapped once the movie underperformed
[01:14:39] Yes, so now the guy in the sports car
[01:14:46] is trying to get the woman's attention
[01:14:50] she's just oblivious, doesn't hear it
[01:14:53] she's like singing little baby songs to the baby
[01:14:55] and the fourth, I'm sorry, the third or fourth I forget what it was
[01:15:00] buckle goes, the entire load of sewer pipes unloads
[01:15:05] onto both the mother's car, the baby
[01:15:08] and our heroes all at the same time
[01:15:11] and it's right when they're going over an overpass
[01:15:14] and both cars go over and are crushed and covered by the sewer pipes
[01:15:20] Now, the next thing you know is
[01:15:25] they're kind of the emergency first responders are digging through the rubble
[01:15:30] and they see that the car's completely crushed
[01:15:33] but then one of the first responders
[01:15:36] one of the younger guys, the junior guys
[01:15:38] says to his captain, you know, oh this car's completely crushed
[01:15:41] this guy's gonna be dead
[01:15:43] and then there's nobody here
[01:15:45] what do you mean, there's nobody here
[01:15:47] that's what I'm telling you
[01:15:48] there's no way anybody could have gotten out
[01:15:50] there's no body
[01:15:52] there's nothing, he's gone
[01:15:54] completely vanished
[01:15:56] jump to the future
[01:15:58] 20 years
[01:16:00] so basically we're following a thread here
[01:16:03] but it's still a different story, different people
[01:16:06] jump to the future
[01:16:08] and that the guy gets to the future
[01:16:12] and it turns out that
[01:16:15] he was never actually supposed to have died
[01:16:19] unlike Alex Furlong who was going to die in that movie
[01:16:24] you know, so they pulled him out
[01:16:26] this guy wasn't supposed to die
[01:16:28] this guy was supposed to save the young mother
[01:16:32] and because there was a news chopper overhead
[01:16:36] they knew exactly when and where it happened
[01:16:40] now he had had an ex-girlfriend
[01:16:44] who he had broken up with
[01:16:47] try to follow this story, it's a really fascinating story
[01:16:50] the ex-girlfriend he had broken up with
[01:16:52] she goes and gets married
[01:16:54] and then turns out her husband contracts some illness
[01:16:57] and he's dying and dies
[01:17:00] but he's rich in the future
[01:17:03] because he'd come in a lot of money or something
[01:17:06] anyway, the guy was rich
[01:17:07] so he had the money to arrange
[01:17:10] to have this guy jacked in the past
[01:17:14] and so what happens is
[01:17:17] is that they're in there
[01:17:19] he wants this guy's body
[01:17:20] because he knew that his wife had once loved this guy
[01:17:23] so it would be a body that he could get into
[01:17:26] and when that happens
[01:17:31] a whole bunch of other stuff happens
[01:17:32] and everybody finally realizes what happened
[01:17:34] and how it happened
[01:17:35] now the whole idea is
[01:17:37] because the guy actually got into his body
[01:17:40] but our hero's mind was saved by somebody
[01:17:46] we don't know who yet
[01:17:48] on the spiritual switchboard
[01:17:49] it didn't get obliterated
[01:17:51] when our antagonist actually got
[01:17:54] and took possession of the body
[01:17:56] and was living in it
[01:17:58] so now our protagonist
[01:18:03] who has a limited amount of time
[01:18:05] on the spiritual switchboard
[01:18:07] and the people who are trying to get his body back
[01:18:11] that's where the twice jacked part comes in
[01:18:13] because this one guy's body
[01:18:15] literally gets jacked from the past into the future
[01:18:18] and then they've got to steal it back
[01:18:20] and get the guy out of his body
[01:18:22] then the whole thing resolves
[01:18:26] obviously the way you'd see it flashing out
[01:18:29] they get the body back
[01:18:30] they kill the guy who stole his body in the first place
[01:18:34] but now he's got to get home
[01:18:36] because now he's in the future
[01:18:37] he doesn't want to stay in the present
[01:18:40] he's got a past to get back to
[01:18:42] and it's like well we've only ever brought people forward
[01:18:44] we've never tried it
[01:18:45] sending somebody back
[01:18:46] and we would have to send them back
[01:18:48] at the exact same moment we pulled them out
[01:18:50] okay so that actually happens
[01:18:52] within a split second
[01:18:54] a split second of when they pulled them out the first time
[01:18:56] he goes oh and you know with the temporal displacement
[01:18:59] it's probably going to knock him out
[01:19:00] so they set up this thing
[01:19:02] where they're going to give him like an adrenaline shot
[01:19:04] the instant he gets back to the past
[01:19:07] and that happens
[01:19:08] so he gets there
[01:19:10] back in his body
[01:19:11] back in his car
[01:19:13] right before the accident happens
[01:19:16] and he pushes the car to safety
[01:19:18] and they both survive
[01:19:20] and all is well
[01:19:22] and the only thing that was a traffic accident
[01:19:24] where the truck lost its load
[01:19:27] but nobody was killed
[01:19:29] that's how that movie ends
[01:19:31] what do you think?
[01:19:36] it seems like it's a retread
[01:19:38] and then a minor
[01:19:40] I didn't promise you a fellow
[01:19:42] it doesn't have to be Shakespeare
[01:19:44] it says it's going to be Shakespeare
[01:19:46] if they change the title
[01:19:48] I would be curious
[01:19:50] but
[01:19:52] that would lend itself
[01:19:54] to of course
[01:19:56] an adult themed version of the feature
[01:19:58] Free Jack 2, Twice Jacked
[01:20:02] yep
[01:20:04] but I digress
[01:20:06] it sounds also like they're incorporating
[01:20:08] almost post Back to the Future
[01:20:10] tropes as well as
[01:20:12] pre-Matrix stuff where everyone's
[01:20:14] oh and I forgot to tell you
[01:20:16] in a direct call back
[01:20:18] to when his girlfriend
[01:20:20] Renee Russo
[01:20:22] sees the crash happen
[01:20:24] and she screams
[01:20:26] and they zero in on her face
[01:20:28] his girlfriend
[01:20:30] is watching the news
[01:20:32] sees the crash
[01:20:34] and they zero in her face when she screams
[01:20:36] so it's a big total
[01:20:38] like connected mirror universe
[01:20:40] instead of
[01:20:42] yes oh and one of the things I forgot to tell you
[01:20:44] is Renee Russo
[01:20:46] would have played a cameo of her same character
[01:20:48] because this
[01:20:50] in the future it would have taken place
[01:20:52] before Alex had gotten to the future
[01:20:54] so he was 2009
[01:20:56] so this would have been a few years before
[01:20:58] their whole adventure had happened
[01:21:00] and
[01:21:02] that the girlfriend
[01:21:04] of the protagonist
[01:21:06] worked for the same
[01:21:08] McCandless company
[01:21:10] that Renee Russo
[01:21:12] worked for
[01:21:14] she was looking for her help
[01:21:16] and trying to make the body steal back happen
[01:21:20] oh man
[01:21:22] so she's prompting the story
[01:21:24] as opposed to just
[01:21:26] hey look at how we're connected
[01:21:28] correct
[01:21:30] did you find out about this
[01:21:32] basically
[01:21:34] what had happened was
[01:21:36] when she's asking for help
[01:21:38] she knew that her boyfriend
[01:21:40] that her boss' boyfriend Alex Furlong
[01:21:42] whatever had disappeared
[01:21:44] and it was surmised
[01:21:46] that if there was no body
[01:21:48] once the technology had appeared
[01:21:50] that maybe that had happened with him
[01:21:52] and we look down at her desk
[01:21:54] and see a picture of Alex
[01:21:56] in his race car jumpsuit
[01:21:58] with his leg up and Captain Morgan
[01:22:00] posed up on his tire
[01:22:02] with the captioned pedal to the metal
[01:22:06] and she glances down
[01:22:08] and because she's
[01:22:10] missing Alex
[01:22:12] and was never able to do anything about Alex
[01:22:14] she feels she can do something to help this woman
[01:22:16] maybe make things right
[01:22:18] for her boyfriend
[01:22:20] there you go
[01:22:22] simple solution to a complex premise
[01:22:24] yes
[01:22:26] I think it could have been a great movie
[01:22:28] oh oh oh and the other thing was
[01:22:30] I knew I almost forgot something important
[01:22:34] in direct competition
[01:22:36] with Vesendak
[01:22:38] Mick Jagger's character
[01:22:40] is another
[01:22:42] bonejacker
[01:22:44] a competing bonejacker
[01:22:46] but he's inept, dorky
[01:22:48] not too dissimilar from the character
[01:22:50] that he played
[01:22:52] in Johnny the Demonic
[01:22:54] there you go
[01:22:56] oh my god I'm blanking on his name
[01:22:58] Henry Rollins
[01:23:00] Henry Rollins would have played the competing bonejacker
[01:23:02] and he will
[01:23:04] ultimately wind up getting killed
[01:23:06] either by Mick Jagger
[01:23:08] or in competition with Mick Jagger
[01:23:10] there you go
[01:23:12] I'm glad you brought up Demonic
[01:23:14] Demonic is a total very similar movie
[01:23:16] yes so you said cyberpunk
[01:23:18] I think hackers and Johnny Demonic
[01:23:20] that's my idea of cyberpunk
[01:23:22] Matrix, Terminator, Star Trek
[01:23:24] Star Trek episodes, Outer Limits
[01:23:26] Babylon 5
[01:23:28] if it involves a corporation or people finding the dead
[01:23:30] it's typically called
[01:23:32] William Gibson type material
[01:23:34] well you're not wrong
[01:23:36] I'll give you that
[01:23:38] it's all good
[01:23:40] there are just like any subgenres
[01:23:42] there's even subgenres of the subgenres
[01:23:44] that's true
[01:23:46] so what do you think of the premise
[01:23:48] of Free Jack 2, Twice Jack
[01:23:50] do you think that would be a movie you would have watched and enjoyed?
[01:23:54] maybe as a rental
[01:23:56] maybe as a rental
[01:23:58] it would really depend on how
[01:24:00] good the characters are
[01:24:02] were there any leads attached?
[01:24:04] or was it just on
[01:24:06] like I said
[01:24:08] the only
[01:24:10] Christian Slater
[01:24:12] would have played
[01:24:14] the protagonist
[01:24:16] but Renee Russo would have reprised her
[01:24:18] cameo as
[01:24:20] Julie Redland
[01:24:22] Mick Jagger would have been Ms. Sendak
[01:24:24] and Henry Rollins would have been the competing Bone Jacker
[01:24:26] whose name eludes me
[01:24:28] but yeah Christian Slater
[01:24:30] would have was proposed for the
[01:24:32] protagonist
[01:24:34] that makes sense
[01:24:36] because this was a Morgan Creek production
[01:24:38] and they were pretty much enlisting anyone who had been in Young Guns
[01:24:40] and some of those other Warner Brothers productions
[01:24:44] I never thought
[01:24:46] of the Emilio Estevez
[01:24:48] and Christian Slater
[01:24:50] connection there
[01:24:52] I love them all man
[01:24:54] they're all very undervalued performers
[01:24:56] even with Adam Phillips
[01:24:58] I always loved his cameo
[01:25:00] in Star Trek 6 the
[01:25:02] Undiscovered Country
[01:25:04] hey it helps when your mom's the casting agent
[01:25:08] overnight success baby
[01:25:10] you get to have probably one of the funniest
[01:25:12] lines in otherwise serious mystery
[01:25:16] on a side scroll
[01:25:18] have you seen the uncut version of Johnny Mnemonic?
[01:25:20] I have not
[01:25:22] is there something I'm missing?
[01:25:24] it's a hunt down
[01:25:26] I've seen it on the Superman Blu-ray
[01:25:28] on eBay, it's region free
[01:25:30] so much worth it
[01:25:32] a totally different movie
[01:25:34] extended scenes, you actually know why the villains are trying to kill you
[01:25:36] are they intercut into the movie?
[01:25:38] yes but it's all remastered
[01:25:40] this is the original version meant before
[01:25:42] Sony fired the director
[01:25:44] and did their own cut
[01:25:46] and it's so rescored
[01:25:48] of Johnny Mnemonic?
[01:25:50] yes I'm not kidding
[01:25:52] it's such a better movie
[01:25:54] maybe I'll just look on Amazon
[01:25:56] maybe it's on Amazon
[01:25:58] it's pretty sold out, eBay was my
[01:26:00] main romp
[01:26:02] and definitely do the DVD compare
[01:26:04] site, that's the best helpful option
[01:26:06] for finding alternate cuts
[01:26:08] of different editions of movies
[01:26:10] but it was so cool because basically
[01:26:12] long story short they just
[01:26:14] so rescored
[01:26:16] so re-edited
[01:26:18] you don't get any of the unintended camp
[01:26:20] including the I want room service
[01:26:22] it's amazing what changes you can make
[01:26:26] and I have tried to convince so many
[01:26:28] people to watch it but anyone who didn't like
[01:26:30] it they're like I'm not giving another shot
[01:26:32] I like the ideas, bad execution
[01:26:34] I'm telling you dude this is the actual version
[01:26:36] of the movie meant to be seen
[01:26:38] and these same fuckers are the same ones
[01:26:40] who have seen every version
[01:26:42] of every Star Wars
[01:26:46] any other directors cut
[01:26:48] if you can watch a 5 hour version of The Godfather
[01:26:50] or even Justice League
[01:26:52] give this a shot instead of
[01:26:54] being like oh it's old I don't want to give
[01:26:56] it a chance, I'm like well you lose the right
[01:26:58] to say it's a piece of shit if you haven't seen
[01:27:00] both versions, if there's a better version
[01:27:02] check it out
[01:27:04] so many movies can be improved
[01:27:06] with different cuts
[01:27:10] and how is it identified as
[01:27:12] the German version?
[01:27:16] you know what I'll give you the DVD compare
[01:27:18] I've got a website that there's different editions and everything
[01:27:20] hell even the Blu-ray forums are very helpful
[01:27:24] they've got one, they've got a Blu-ray
[01:27:26] here of Johnny Mnemonic in
[01:27:28] black and white
[01:27:30] yeah now that's the theatrical
[01:27:32] that's an American version
[01:27:34] just
[01:27:36] type in Google German
[01:27:38] region free Mnemonic Blu-ray
[01:27:40] you will find it, I kid you not
[01:27:42] alright fair enough
[01:27:44] so worth it and I know they'll bring
[01:27:46] to it in America soon as well as
[01:27:48] new special features so I mean
[01:27:50] there's plenty of time, there's no rush but
[01:27:52] better yet
[01:27:54] I'll just send Keith
[01:27:56] my, see what I did there
[01:27:58] I will just send him free
[01:28:00] re-transfer an internet
[01:28:02] copy I got
[01:28:04] alright
[01:28:06] you don't have to
[01:28:08] get ready to buy a $40
[01:28:10] collector's item, okay perfect
[01:28:12] so I guess
[01:28:14] so you were so fortunate to see both
[01:28:16] these in the theater instead of just do the
[01:28:18] TBS effect where it's on cable
[01:28:20] I saw a time
[01:28:22] cop in the theater too
[01:28:24] oh nice
[01:28:26] oh man
[01:28:28] there's another fun one
[01:28:30] so by the
[01:28:32] time you're seeing all these time travel
[01:28:34] and just like
[01:28:36] complex features with some popcorn
[01:28:38] fun
[01:28:40] why do you think you just
[01:28:42] why do you think demolition man clicked
[01:28:44] with so many after all these years like
[01:28:46] they're always finding a new amusing quote
[01:28:48] about it, sharing
[01:28:50] because in the future all restaurants are Taco Bell
[01:28:52] you're right, so everyone's constipated
[01:28:54] I don't know
[01:28:56] about that but you know
[01:28:58] difficult
[01:29:00] to say
[01:29:02] were you already a fan of the actors
[01:29:04] or was this your intro to them?
[01:29:06] I'd seen
[01:29:08] Stallone in
[01:29:10] you know as far back as Rocky
[01:29:14] Rambo and all that
[01:29:16] not really Rambo
[01:29:18] I think I saw Rambo when it came on HBO
[01:29:20] but you gotta remember when I was
[01:29:22] a kid things were a lot different
[01:29:24] than they were there now, there were no
[01:29:26] simultaneous theatrical
[01:29:28] and home release
[01:29:30] there were no
[01:29:32] for example when
[01:29:34] Back to the Future left
[01:29:36] the theaters in 85
[01:29:38] it didn't come on VHS
[01:29:40] for over a year
[01:29:42] and I wanted that release
[01:29:44] so badly
[01:29:46] that I was willing to pay $100
[01:29:48] for it on an offer of
[01:29:50] a VHS copy of Back to the Future
[01:29:52] that I'd been waiting for for a year to get my hands
[01:29:54] on, you know and then
[01:29:56] after a while it was
[01:29:58] do you do that or do you just wait for it
[01:30:00] to come on HBO which might take two years
[01:30:02] exactly
[01:30:04] everything comes out immediately and everybody just
[01:30:06] is so used to that immediacy
[01:30:08] you forget how long
[01:30:10] you waited once a movie left the theater
[01:30:12] because
[01:30:14] theaters, I mean studio owners
[01:30:16] were looking to milk
[01:30:18] every last cent
[01:30:20] that they could get, I mean heck
[01:30:22] when a movie would leave the theater
[01:30:24] first run it would
[01:30:26] go to the $2 theaters before the
[01:30:28] $2 theaters became $3 theaters
[01:30:30] and the $3 theaters
[01:30:32] were eventually turned down because
[01:30:34] the theater floors were too sticky
[01:30:36] from years and years and years of spilled
[01:30:38] soda and popcorn
[01:30:40] never got properly cleaned up
[01:30:42] but did you guys ever have
[01:30:44] are you old enough to remember discount theaters?
[01:30:46] I am and I used
[01:30:48] them a bunch until a lot of them got
[01:30:50] discontinued recently but yeah
[01:30:52] I've been to drive-ins, I've been to
[01:30:54] all kinds of theaters but that
[01:30:56] is a good point, so many we are so spoiled
[01:30:58] now where you know even during
[01:31:00] the 2000s it would often take
[01:31:02] two to three years for a blockbuster to come
[01:31:04] to cable TV
[01:31:06] it was often on the movie channels
[01:31:08] after a year but yeah
[01:31:10] once movies started even flopping even more
[01:31:12] simultaneously to where they were just like
[01:31:14] fine fuck it, just send it
[01:31:16] straight to blockbuster or straight to
[01:31:20] the movie channels so we can get even more
[01:31:22] instant return on this awful movie, it's just
[01:31:24] interesting how they
[01:31:26] like you say they have evolved
[01:31:28] and when a movie
[01:31:30] was so good you know
[01:31:32] that was just it, the only
[01:31:34] option you had was beg your parents
[01:31:36] or friends to take you again
[01:31:38] otherwise you had to wait and
[01:31:40] it's just even funnier how
[01:31:42] so many other movies and shows have been that
[01:31:44] way because they weren't even available on home media
[01:31:46] for a long time, Wizard of Oz
[01:31:48] is a big one where unless
[01:31:50] you taped it off CBS every year you weren't
[01:31:52] going to find it
[01:31:54] it's just fascinating like to say
[01:31:56] It's funny what you just said
[01:31:58] to speak to your point, I was just talking
[01:32:00] to my daughter recently about
[01:32:02] you know finding
[01:32:04] movies that you want to
[01:32:06] watch when they're not on
[01:32:08] any streaming services, I said this is
[01:32:10] the number one
[01:32:12] reason, I said licensing
[01:32:14] between rights holders
[01:32:16] and streaming services is the number
[01:32:18] one reason why I'm still a proponent
[01:32:20] of physical media because
[01:32:22] once you buy a disc
[01:32:24] nobody can come and knock on your door
[01:32:26] take it away from you, you own
[01:32:28] that physical media
[01:32:30] you own a better resolution
[01:32:32] you don't have any commercials, you don't have any other bullshit
[01:32:34] I mean even when you buy a copy
[01:32:36] of a movie digitally
[01:32:38] from Apple or iTunes or Movies
[01:32:40] Anywhere.com, anytime
[01:32:42] you buy a digital copy
[01:32:44] if you read that fine print it tells
[01:32:46] you that it's subject to certain
[01:32:48] licenses and even though you didn't
[01:32:50] rent it, you bought it
[01:32:52] because you didn't buy a physical
[01:32:54] copy of it, if licenses
[01:32:56] and rights change between
[01:32:58] production companies
[01:33:00] your ability to re-access that
[01:33:02] movie that you quote unquote bought
[01:33:04] will vaporize
[01:33:06] Amazon's been good
[01:33:08] at honoring the deal but I have heard some stories
[01:33:10] about Roku and other places where there's
[01:33:12] especially movies anywhere Voodoo
[01:33:14] is just like, like you say
[01:33:16] you never know how much of it is like
[01:33:18] you say an argument between the companies versus
[01:33:20] hey we were on it
[01:33:22] we were unimpressed with the ratings
[01:33:24] and numbers, we just gotta kill it
[01:33:26] and it's like well the more you kill stuff
[01:33:28] the more people beg for it to come back
[01:33:30] but that's the other problem too. Exactly
[01:33:32] kind of like the original Oat based formula
[01:33:34] of the monster cereals but I digress
[01:33:36] Hey, that would be fun
[01:33:38] Too bad they aren't
[01:33:40] Rob Zombie
[01:33:42] But to your original point
[01:33:44] the thing that I think
[01:33:46] makes Demolition Man
[01:33:48] The fun that it is
[01:33:50] is it's
[01:33:52] a classic fish out of water comedy
[01:33:54] set in this
[01:33:56] really campy futuristic world
[01:33:58] Right
[01:34:00] and Stallone is serious
[01:34:02] but he's working with the comedy
[01:34:04] instead of taking himself way too serious
[01:34:06] like he would in other movies
[01:34:08] Exactly
[01:34:10] And you see so many other movies where
[01:34:12] you would hear horror stories about
[01:34:14] oh, blah, blah, blah, blah
[01:34:16] So and so hated each other
[01:34:18] they were the leads and I haven't heard anyone
[01:34:20] I mean
[01:34:22] at one point when Stallone
[01:34:24] was forming the Expendables
[01:34:26] he wanted Sandra Bullock in the cast
[01:34:28] he got sniped for part 3 but
[01:34:30] that says a lot
[01:34:32] when she was
[01:34:34] just starting up
[01:34:36] then she's a star a year later in Speed
[01:34:38] and at this point she's just done some indies
[01:34:40] with River Phoenix and Company
[01:34:42] and it's like that's intriguing
[01:34:44] And you see again just the evolution of all these actors
[01:34:46] and how this is still one
[01:34:48] of their top 10 movies like it's a crowd
[01:34:50] pleaser and critics
[01:34:52] are again just totally
[01:34:54] grumpy about it
[01:34:56] How cynical can you be
[01:34:58] over popcorn
[01:35:00] It's funny it reminds me of
[01:35:02] Do you remember
[01:35:04] the Schwarzenegger movie
[01:35:06] The Last Action Hero
[01:35:08] Absolutely
[01:35:10] They go into
[01:35:12] the fictional world
[01:35:14] and there's no Arnold Schwarzenegger
[01:35:16] there
[01:35:18] Well Stallone was Terminator
[01:35:20] and Stallone was
[01:35:24] Stallone was a Terminator
[01:35:26] I'm thinking
[01:35:28] Schwarzenegger was demolition man
[01:35:30] No there was no Schwarzenegger
[01:35:32] They mentioned that he was the president
[01:35:34] Both these blockbusters
[01:35:36] were taking aim at their
[01:35:38] off screen rivalry
[01:35:40] and it was just kind of fun
[01:35:42] and that's another movie
[01:35:44] It just tanked and yet now when I
[01:35:46] encounter an average person they're generally like
[01:35:48] Oh my god I laugh my ass off each time I watch it
[01:35:50] So it's like everyone
[01:35:52] has to go in phases
[01:35:54] before they can accept something
[01:35:56] and it's like well
[01:35:58] what was wrong? Was the ad misleading?
[01:36:00] Were people
[01:36:02] just afraid to go because the critics
[01:36:04] were being pungent about it or
[01:36:06] what? I don't get it
[01:36:08] I don't get it
[01:36:10] The closest I see with that is
[01:36:12] I will see people sometimes
[01:36:14] on necessary click bait articles
[01:36:16] say this movie is no trending on Netflix
[01:36:18] I'm like well it always was trending
[01:36:20] You're just maybe the fourth or fifth
[01:36:22] generation now accessing it
[01:36:26] Do you think this is one of the
[01:36:28] many movies in the 90s that slowly
[01:36:30] made people just say you know what fuck critics
[01:36:32] We're just not going to go to those review sites
[01:36:34] anymore because they just
[01:36:36] dig into it with claws all the time
[01:36:38] It's just killjoy
[01:36:40] Here's the thing for me Cam
[01:36:42] I've never listened to
[01:36:44] critics because
[01:36:46] I always had
[01:36:48] this sense that
[01:36:50] there was an innate negativity
[01:36:52] to the movie
[01:36:54] And so
[01:36:56] I can't remember
[01:36:58] a movie that
[01:37:00] a critic panned that
[01:37:02] I didn't enjoy on some level
[01:37:04] And I think of lots
[01:37:06] of movies and I'd be hard pressed to tell
[01:37:08] you one today
[01:37:10] But I can remember a lot of times because
[01:37:12] when we were kids
[01:37:14] you would look in the newspaper
[01:37:16] for the movie times to know what a movie was
[01:37:18] showing at the local theater
[01:37:20] and there was no going online
[01:37:22] and just buying your tickets in advance
[01:37:24] And on the same page
[01:37:26] as the movie listings
[01:37:28] were reviews for some
[01:37:30] of that recurrent movies
[01:37:32] And I remember reading review after
[01:37:34] review after review
[01:37:36] and I'm looking at like
[01:37:38] who's doing the review? It's like some middle-aged
[01:37:40] mom or some old guy
[01:37:42] And I'm like, these people
[01:37:44] don't get it
[01:37:46] They don't have their finger on the pulse
[01:37:48] of, you know
[01:37:50] They might be
[01:37:52] qualified to
[01:37:56] Maybe review musicals
[01:37:58] To review Steel Magnolias
[01:38:00] Or Phil McLuise
[01:38:02] Or Driving Miss Daisy
[01:38:04] But not any of the movies that they're over your panning
[01:38:06] because they don't get the tech
[01:38:08] or they don't get sci-fi
[01:38:10] or something that the overall
[01:38:12] genre doesn't resonate with them
[01:38:14] That it would be
[01:38:16] a giant leap
[01:38:18] for any part of this movie
[01:38:20] to be something that they would enjoy
[01:38:22] let alone understand
[01:38:24] or vice versa
[01:38:26] One stupid trend I saw
[01:38:28] for a while was people acting like
[01:38:30] it must be like this movie
[01:38:32] I'm like, why would it be like that movie?
[01:38:34] Those are two really different genres
[01:38:36] than everything
[01:38:40] You're exactly right
[01:38:42] The people who confuse Star Trek and Star Wars
[01:38:44] Yes, those guys get annoying
[01:38:46] But even then
[01:38:48] Like you say, they're going to be the kind
[01:38:50] who only watch turner classic movies
[01:38:52] And don't get me wrong, I love turner classic movies
[01:38:54] But then
[01:38:56] If it doesn't start Cary Grant or
[01:38:58] Catherine Hefford, it must be bad
[01:39:00] Not everything they do is great
[01:39:02] But even then
[01:39:04] Totally different eras, different standards
[01:39:06] Different practices, different style
[01:39:10] Again, it's apples and oranges
[01:39:12] And it just seems like it's always a constant
[01:39:14] I will see even people
[01:39:18] Really, critics have been really
[01:39:20] hacking me this year
[01:39:22] I've seen them give decent reviews
[01:39:24] I've seen it, and it's like, how is this
[01:39:26] a four out of five star review?
[01:39:28] It sounds like you're liking this at gunpoint
[01:39:32] If you didn't like it, be honest
[01:39:34] But that's the other problem too
[01:39:36] There's just too much corporate media
[01:39:38] So half the time people will be like
[01:39:40] Well, I'm forced to give this movie I don't care for
[01:39:44] I want to seem professional
[01:39:46] There are plenty of critics who have
[01:39:48] had a knack for having hot takes
[01:39:50] And I legit do like Roger Ebert
[01:39:52] I hear them all the time
[01:39:54] And it's funny, I was just thinking about
[01:39:56] Cisco and Ebert when you said that
[01:39:58] Cisco was very cynical
[01:40:00] He would always be like
[01:40:02] This is a nihilistic movie
[01:40:04] Because it has gore? No
[01:40:06] It better be a political subtext
[01:40:08] You've got to call it nihilistic
[01:40:10] And this is interesting
[01:40:12] Half the time people are
[01:40:14] I get that it's hard to write a review
[01:40:16] Let alone be constructive
[01:40:18] But when, it doesn't take much
[01:40:20] It's just spend an hour
[01:40:22] Get your thoughts in order
[01:40:24] And write it down
[01:40:26] And then just say, okay does that make any sense to anyone
[01:40:28] Or am I just being
[01:40:30] Just a grump
[01:40:32] Half the time I feel like they
[01:40:34] Would type it up at the last minute
[01:40:36] And just send in the letter and that's what got printed
[01:40:38] It's like, oh dude
[01:40:42] My grandmother and I would read the same reviews
[01:40:44] As well as other pop culture news articles
[01:40:46] And we would talk about our findings
[01:40:48] What we liked about the reporting
[01:40:50] Or what have you
[01:40:52] And then we'd joke about the typos
[01:40:54] Nice
[01:40:56] That's a lost art now
[01:40:58] Now I will see typos go lower
[01:41:00] Where it's like, oh my god, journalism is fucking dead
[01:41:02] Nice
[01:41:04] I know everyone else knows that
[01:41:06] But it's just sad
[01:41:08] Because there's a skill to
[01:41:10] You're very passionate about what you talk about
[01:41:12] I try my best
[01:41:14] And I think that's a great thing to do
[01:41:16] Because it's just a fun art to that
[01:41:18] It seems like we're now
[01:41:20] The generation, if we're not the junk food generation
[01:41:22] Sometimes we just get people who want to act like
[01:41:24] They don't want to even know how the magic is made anymore
[01:41:26] Sometimes you want to know
[01:41:28] How the magic is made
[01:41:30] Because that reminds you why it's so good
[01:41:32] And I will see so many people
[01:41:34] They're like, no, no, I don't want to see who the puppeteer is
[01:41:36] Yada yada
[01:41:38] I don't want to know how he gave that
[01:41:40] Excellent TED talk at that college campus
[01:41:42] I think we could do that
[01:41:44] Any of us could do that
[01:41:46] If we followed their lead
[01:41:48] Instead of just being
[01:41:50] I'm a loser
[01:41:52] I'm just a bitch
[01:41:54] Nice
[01:41:56] My favorite character in Demolition Man?
[01:41:58] Yeah
[01:42:00] Oh, it's got to be Stallone
[01:42:02] John Spartan
[01:42:04] John Spartan
[01:42:06] You've been fine
[01:42:08] Wesley Snipes is a great job
[01:42:10] He wasn't angry enough
[01:42:12] For somebody that angry
[01:42:14] He was more comedic
[01:42:16] About being angry
[01:42:18] That was kind of the point
[01:42:20] He's a funny villain who does violent things
[01:42:22] Let's put it this way
[01:42:24] This way
[01:42:26] For as badly reviewed as Free Jack was
[01:42:30] And as much as I love Free Jack
[01:42:34] It doesn't have the same level of
[01:42:38] Re-watchability
[01:42:40] That
[01:42:42] I could watch Free Jack every few years
[01:42:44] And be content with that
[01:42:46] But
[01:42:48] Demolition Man
[01:42:50] Is one of those movies
[01:42:52] Where
[01:42:54] If you've seen it
[01:42:56] You know, two dozen times since 1993
[01:42:58] When it came out
[01:43:00] It's now become
[01:43:02] One of those movies where
[01:43:04] No matter what part of the movie it's in
[01:43:06] If you've seen the clip on the channel that it's on
[01:43:08] You can just watch it
[01:43:10] Absolutely, you can soak right into it
[01:43:12] I was already familiar with Snipes
[01:43:14] I backtrack
[01:43:16] I had seen his other gangster movies
[01:43:18] As well as comedies
[01:43:20] Like Dwang Fu as well as Blade
[01:43:22] But yeah, this is my favorite villain role by him
[01:43:24] Because
[01:43:26] He's just having fun teasing Stallone
[01:43:28] And he's like a punk who somehow
[01:43:30] Worked his way up the chain
[01:43:32] And became a warlord
[01:43:34] In a crappy future
[01:43:36] And did you like how they
[01:43:38] Used the guy playing the police chief
[01:43:40] As the same police chief from other Joel Stover productions
[01:43:42] Like the Lethal Weapon franchise?
[01:43:46] I didn't know that
[01:43:48] Because I don't watch
[01:43:50] A lot of his other productions
[01:43:52] I noticed that he was
[01:43:54] Also the guy who played Captain
[01:43:56] Ben Maxwell
[01:43:58] In one of the
[01:44:00] Star Trek The Next Generation episodes
[01:44:02] I believe it was called The Wounded
[01:44:04] I think so
[01:44:06] It's definitely a later episode
[01:44:08] Although in that episode he had hair
[01:44:10] Yeah, here
[01:44:12] He's really trimmed it back
[01:44:14] A bunch and has a giant hat on
[01:44:16] And it's so wild how
[01:44:18] He literally just steals the same crooked
[01:44:20] Politicians and
[01:44:22] Other tyrants idea, they're like okay
[01:44:24] We're going to take a criminal from the past so we can
[01:44:26] Have our own
[01:44:28] Crime fighting agenda
[01:44:30] He's like, well I guess I'm going to take
[01:44:32] The best cop who got arrested
[01:44:34] And sent to isolation
[01:44:36] And I'll have him fight this old problem
[01:44:38] I just have one question, Cam
[01:44:40] What do you do
[01:44:42] With the three seashells?
[01:44:44] Stallone actually explained
[01:44:46] That on a recent Instagram post
[01:44:48] Stop, he did not
[01:44:50] Yes he fucking did
[01:44:52] It's for wiping
[01:44:54] Your ass
[01:44:58] What happens if you need more than three?
[01:45:00] I'll say that's where it would have
[01:45:02] Fallen apart
[01:45:04] It's like when you tell a joke the wrong way
[01:45:06] It's like, okay you bastard
[01:45:08] So
[01:45:10] Yeah
[01:45:12] I shared it with other people and they're like
[01:45:14] What the fuck, I'm so glad I was left
[01:45:16] In my imagination
[01:45:20] That's hilarious
[01:45:22] It is wild
[01:45:24] I haven't seen many of the other actors talk about this movie
[01:45:26] But I've never seen him bash it
[01:45:28] He would be like, okay he's going to get
[01:45:30] This and that's in this for god's sake
[01:45:32] So he would reunite with Bullock and Miss Congeniality
[01:45:34] That's true, yeah
[01:45:36] He was young in that movie
[01:45:38] Yeah, did you like his shedding grin?
[01:45:40] He's just like, I like this dude
[01:45:42] I don't know why
[01:45:44] I'm supposed to babysit him and make sure
[01:45:46] He doesn't blow shit up
[01:45:48] He's kind of cool
[01:45:50] He's breaking the rules, he's giving my boss shit
[01:45:52] Oh my god
[01:45:54] Actually I'd like to amend my earlier answer
[01:45:56] My favorite character in Demolition Man
[01:46:00] Was the girl who
[01:46:02] Face timed him
[01:46:04] Thinking she was calling her boyfriend
[01:46:06] Oh shit, yeah
[01:46:08] Predicted, iPads
[01:46:10] But also yeah, FaceTime
[01:46:12] I mean as it is
[01:46:14] FaceTime's been out for what
[01:46:16] 15 years now
[01:46:18] And nobody's ever given me a naked FaceTime call
[01:46:22] That was a wrong number
[01:46:24] Wait what?
[01:46:26] It was an absolute wrong number
[01:46:30] Man
[01:46:32] What's your favorite line also
[01:46:34] I always quote, you're on TV
[01:46:36] When they're fighting each other and he slams them into the TV
[01:46:40] Oh that movie
[01:46:42] Is eminently
[01:46:44] Eminently quotable
[01:46:46] Hard pressed
[01:46:48] That's the final line he says when he fights him at the end
[01:46:50] I think he says something
[01:46:52] That's silly, cringey
[01:46:54] But just fun
[01:46:56] Like ice gag or something
[01:46:58] He says something
[01:47:00] Regarding the fact that he's just been frozen and shattered
[01:47:06] Does the yell freeze or something
[01:47:08] Yeah, yeah
[01:47:10] He freezes Simon and
[01:47:12] He just says like
[01:47:14] Something wacky like
[01:47:16] Stay frozen or some shit
[01:47:18] Yeah I don't know
[01:47:20] I'm gonna put that one off the top of my head
[01:47:22] I'm gonna look it up while we're talking
[01:47:24] I'm just gonna look it up
[01:47:26] We've got the power of the internet
[01:47:28] While we're
[01:47:30] Who would have known
[01:47:32] Who would have known
[01:47:36] To follow your points
[01:47:38] I really am surprised at how well these movies
[01:47:40] Turned out
[01:47:42] Considering the fact that either the cast or crew
[01:47:44] Was dissatisfied with them
[01:47:46] Or that there was studio interference
[01:47:48] I think they still make a watchable product
[01:47:50] That people like
[01:47:52] Because I see so many other movies
[01:47:54] That because there was so much interference
[01:47:56] It's just you can't even call it a movie nowadays
[01:47:58] There's some movies coming out now
[01:48:00] Where they've hired people
[01:48:02] From like
[01:48:04] Honest trailers to do the editing
[01:48:06] Those guys are comedians
[01:48:08] Not actual movie editors
[01:48:10] What the fuck
[01:48:12] I don't get why everyone wants to take
[01:48:14] Shortcuts even with this AI debate
[01:48:16] We got now
[01:48:18] It's like oh please
[01:48:20] Right
[01:48:22] I don't know the quote about
[01:48:24] When he freezes him
[01:48:26] I think it's just something like freeze or something
[01:48:28] But my favorite
[01:48:30] Quote
[01:48:32] Because it's the quote that I have used
[01:48:34] My entire life
[01:48:36] Because there's not many times you want to tell people
[01:48:38] To calm down or to relax
[01:48:40] Because usually that's the kind of thing
[01:48:42] That offends somebody
[01:48:44] Don't relax and they don't calm down
[01:48:48] So every once in a while
[01:48:50] I'll say to my wife
[01:48:52] Enhance your calm John Spartan
[01:48:54] And then we just laugh
[01:48:56] Because she knows instantly what you're referencing
[01:48:58] Enhance your calm
[01:49:00] Enhance your calm John Spartan
[01:49:02] Well that's so true
[01:49:04] Because when you tell the average person
[01:49:06] Nowadays calm down
[01:49:08] They think instantly oh you don't trust me
[01:49:10] You think I'm being a prima donna
[01:49:12] And in this case
[01:49:14] Yeah it's a double entendre
[01:49:16] He was frozen for
[01:49:18] How many years
[01:49:20] It was like what 20 years 40 years
[01:49:22] I don't know
[01:49:24] It doesn't matter he was frozen
[01:49:26] With super technologies
[01:49:32] First he says
[01:49:34] Is it cold in here or is it just me
[01:49:36] Then he knocks his head off
[01:49:38] He goes heads up
[01:49:40] I had to look it up
[01:49:42] That is awesome
[01:49:44] Now so there's about
[01:49:46] 20 quotes in this awesome movie
[01:49:48] Oh there's more than that
[01:49:50] Send them in and you have to catch one
[01:49:56] Oh man
[01:49:58] Even the police station
[01:50:00] Scenes have some amusing
[01:50:02] Moments too and for an R rated
[01:50:04] Movie it's really not all that violent
[01:50:06] Compared to other ones where you're just like
[01:50:08] Okay I could do without the carnage
[01:50:12] It's somehow they edited enough
[01:50:14] It was able to be a crowd pleaser without
[01:50:16] Being too much for its own good
[01:50:18] Oh wait I got a couple for you now that's coming back to me
[01:50:20] Looks like there's a new
[01:50:22] Shepherd in town that's
[01:50:24] Sheriff
[01:50:26] What was the other one
[01:50:28] You really licked his
[01:50:30] Ass
[01:50:32] Kicked his ass
[01:50:34] Yeah I remember that
[01:50:36] That's where the movie really goes bonkers
[01:50:38] Fun when Sandra's
[01:50:40] Taking the temptation is like oh
[01:50:42] We can curse because I'm
[01:50:44] Supervising this you know no holds barred
[01:50:46] Rule breaking cop I'll take it
[01:50:48] And she's using all the wrong
[01:50:50] Insults to where it's even funnier
[01:50:54] John Spahn you've been fined one credit
[01:50:56] For violation of the verbal morality
[01:50:58] Statutes
[01:51:00] Oh my god and make sure to never
[01:51:02] Watch this on TV the TV edits are
[01:51:04] Bearable oh yeah
[01:51:06] What is it like
[01:51:08] I'll say words that aren't even
[01:51:10] Forget you Mr. Falcon
[01:51:12] Yeah yeah it's just as bad as the
[01:51:14] Die Hard 2 where you're like that's not even a
[01:51:16] Curse word can you at least replace it
[01:51:18] With something tamer like shit or something
[01:51:20] That makes sense instead of going
[01:51:22] Oh it's enough we're gonna have it be
[01:51:24] Frack which isn't even a real curse word
[01:51:26] Unless you're in Battlestar Galactica territory
[01:51:28] But yeah they would use
[01:51:30] Other stuff like I think
[01:51:32] They said darn like just use damn
[01:51:34] No one's offended by damn
[01:51:36] Right
[01:51:38] You know use hell
[01:51:40] Heck fire and tarnation
[01:51:42] Yeah
[01:51:44] Ticket 500 how much
[01:51:46] Do they have to pay for each fee for each
[01:51:48] Cursing I don't know
[01:51:50] One credit for violation
[01:51:52] Of the verbal morality statute
[01:51:54] I'll take it's probably a 20 or 40
[01:51:56] Or some shit I don't
[01:51:58] Way I mean it's pretty much going
[01:52:00] To only the homeless guys they're picking on
[01:52:02] So it makes me wonder if they've
[01:52:04] Ever had to kind of like
[01:52:06] Star Trek or any
[01:52:08] Any other Navy ship what happens
[01:52:10] If a cop's having a bad day and they accidentally go
[01:52:12] Oh shit I spilled my coffee
[01:52:14] Do they just have to be suspended
[01:52:16] For a day or something
[01:52:18] I don't think they had cops in the future anymore that did
[01:52:20] Anything other than wear a uniform and walk
[01:52:22] Around
[01:52:24] Remember
[01:52:26] How bored the cops of San Angeles
[01:52:28] Were
[01:52:30] Sandra Bullock just couldn't wait for something to happen
[01:52:32] Absolutely
[01:52:34] She romanticized the
[01:52:36] Criminality and the criminal
[01:52:38] Element of the 20th century
[01:52:40] Yes
[01:52:42] And it's also just fun seeing
[01:52:44] How she playfully
[01:52:46] Breaks the rules without
[01:52:48] She kind of pulls a captain curtain she does it enough to where
[01:52:50] She wouldn't be suspended
[01:52:52] But you know it's a
[01:52:54] Gray line and it's
[01:52:56] It's interesting too how I mean
[01:53:00] Both these movies are the worst possible futures
[01:53:02] But yet they're just so fascinating because
[01:53:04] Of the execution
[01:53:06] And that's why I've never truly
[01:53:08] Been fans of dystopian
[01:53:10] Movies because
[01:53:12] Having grown up
[01:53:14] The consummate Star Trek fan that
[01:53:16] Believed in a future that
[01:53:18] We're gonna make it everything's gonna be
[01:53:20] All right we're gonna figure out our
[01:53:22] Stuff as a
[01:53:24] Society as a species
[01:53:26] Right and we're gonna be okay
[01:53:28] You know but like most
[01:53:30] Of your other sci-fi is
[01:53:32] Something dystopian and you know all
[01:53:34] Kidding aside all the jokes you've made and rambling
[01:53:36] We've done you know that's
[01:53:38] For me why I've loved Star Trek
[01:53:40] And really
[01:53:42] Wouldn't give you a wooden nickel I don't know what
[01:53:44] It is about these few
[01:53:46] Selected movies like when you came to me and said
[01:53:48] Let's talk about free jack and
[01:53:50] Demolition man I'm just
[01:53:52] Like wow I love both of those
[01:53:54] Movies and yet if you said
[01:53:56] If you'd said 12 monkeys or
[01:53:58] Waterworld
[01:54:00] No just something other something else was
[01:54:02] Dystopian maybe it was
[01:54:04] Waterworld or Mad Max or
[01:54:06] Terminator is awesome
[01:54:08] Or something with a future
[01:54:10] That left us
[01:54:12] Greatly in question as to whether or not
[01:54:14] We were gonna make it as a species
[01:54:16] As a society
[01:54:18] Nine times out of ten I punch
[01:54:20] Out of a movie like that before I
[01:54:22] Even get past the trailer
[01:54:24] And I'm just
[01:54:26] Like I don't know
[01:54:28] Why I love these movies but
[01:54:30] Something about them resonates with
[01:54:32] Maybe in free jack it's
[01:54:34] The classic okay everybody's
[01:54:36] Railed against this guy but in the end he's
[01:54:38] Gonna pull it all out he's gonna win
[01:54:40] Same thing with
[01:54:42] Demolition man but
[01:54:44] Yeah
[01:54:46] I think it's because the satire in both
[01:54:48] Is kind of like RoboCop where
[01:54:50] It's just there's a lot
[01:54:52] Of sneaky stuff and the more you watch
[01:54:54] It the more you find something new each time
[01:54:56] And then it is kind of like back to the future
[01:54:58] Where you're seeing these people from different timelines
[01:55:00] Talk about how it's changed
[01:55:02] And that's where they use both
[01:55:04] Exposition and some comedic dialogues
[01:55:06] So totally the audience
[01:55:08] Instead of like you say taking me on a wild goose chase
[01:55:10] Where you're like I'm confused I'm bored
[01:55:12] I'm horrified
[01:55:14] By the shit on screen
[01:55:16] There was you know
[01:55:18] Apocalypse movies vary
[01:55:20] I love I Am Legend but I don't like Children of Men
[01:55:22] But to each their own
[01:55:24] I mean
[01:55:26] I liked I Am Legend
[01:55:28] I liked
[01:55:30] Will Smith's performance
[01:55:32] I like at the end
[01:55:34] There was hope you know when he
[01:55:36] Got to that
[01:55:38] When he got to the
[01:55:40] The compound that all
[01:55:42] That had all the people who were
[01:55:44] Unafflicted and you know who survived
[01:55:46] And
[01:55:48] Children of Men
[01:55:50] It was kind
[01:55:52] Of like watching the Handmaid's Tale
[01:55:54] You got a whole society of women
[01:55:56] Who because of environmental factors
[01:55:58] And all kinds of other stuff you know
[01:56:00] Can't produce children anymore
[01:56:02] And because of that that's
[01:56:04] Rattled humanity's
[01:56:06] Cage
[01:56:08] Far too tightly
[01:56:10] I could
[01:56:12] I could watch Handmaid's Tale and enjoy
[01:56:14] The
[01:56:16] Struggle for winning
[01:56:18] But I remember seeing
[01:56:20] Children of Men and
[01:56:22] Being like
[01:56:24] I really could have not watched this
[01:56:26] And just been just as happy
[01:56:28] Oh it was just so overhyped
[01:56:30] I'm like okay I'll give you the cinematography
[01:56:32] But when it gets into all the war stuff
[01:56:34] It's so chaotic it hurts my eyes
[01:56:36] I'm just like ehh
[01:56:38] I see so many people praise this
[01:56:40] I'm glad you love it
[01:56:42] I will never watch this again
[01:56:44] Children of Men didn't hurt my eyes as much
[01:56:46] As Cloverfield did
[01:56:48] That was brutal
[01:56:50] Everyone varies on Shaking Cam
[01:56:52] I'm okay with Bourne Identity
[01:56:54] And James Bond
[01:56:56] Oh you want to laugh I'm glad you said that
[01:56:58] Because I can't watch Bourne Identity
[01:57:00] I'm like what in the world
[01:57:02] This movie could have been so much better
[01:57:04] If they just shot it better
[01:57:06] I love Matt
[01:57:08] I love Matt Damon
[01:57:10] I think the Bourne movies could have been phenomenal
[01:57:12] If it hadn't been for the way
[01:57:14] They filmed some of those action sequences
[01:57:16] They only have Shaking
[01:57:18] And like movies 2
[01:57:20] 3 and 5 but
[01:57:22] The first one you should be able to see okay
[01:57:24] Okay I'll have to go back and
[01:57:26] View them again next time it comes out on HBO or something
[01:57:28] And it varies
[01:57:30] And that and the fact that there's just too much new stuff
[01:57:32] I want to watch I don't even have time
[01:57:34] To watch old stuff that was
[01:57:36] Questionable the first time
[01:57:38] And Keith where can we find you on social media
[01:57:40] You can find me a couple of
[01:57:42] Places if you are looking
