The Crow Remake Dissected and Enthusiastic Review of Strange Darling: An Insightful Film Industry Discussion
Why did the highly anticipated Crow remake fall so flat? Join us as we dissect our immense disappointment with the latest rendition of this cult classic. We were thrilled about Bill Skarsgård's role and the compelling promotional material, only to find the film's deviations from the original in style, substance, and character development disheartening. From the poorly developed love story to the misguided portrayal of the protagonist's motivations, we unpack how the film failed to capture the essence of grief and revenge that made the original so compelling.
Moving forward, we break down the film's plot and character inconsistencies, focusing on the protagonist's abrupt transformation and unrealistic love story. We question the character's behavior, such as his drug use and awkward attempts at heroism, which detracted from the gravity of his mission. Despite these issues, we acknowledge some positives, like the crow character's design and the final scenes' aesthetics. Our discussion spans multiple perspectives, comparing the film as a standalone piece, through the comic book's lens, and as a remake, highlighting various areas where it fell short.
Switching gears, we dive into more exciting territory with our enthusiastic review of "Strange Darling," an indie film we consider the year's best. This vibrant conversation contrasts sharply with our frustrations over other disappointing movies. We also share our anticipation for upcoming releases and industry news, including "Ted Lasso's" return, Marvel's Vision show, Francis Ford Coppola's new film "Metropolis," and the eagerly awaited "X-Men 97" series. Join us for a mix of critical insights and genuine excitement in this jam-packed episode of the It's What We Do podcast.

You know it's what we do. Hello everyone, and welcome to a very special episode of the it's what we Do podcast. And the reason why it's so special is because, well, we watched the Crow, greatest movie of the year.
Speaker 2:This movie was a goddamn disappointment. I'm sorry I'm going to sit with my audio thing. Okay, this movie was a goddamn disappointment. It was Okay.
Speaker 1:That's Hen. This is Hen, by the way. Oh yeah, I'm Hen, oh yeah, please like and subscribe.
Speaker 2:We cover movies and tv show. No, we call it no.
Speaker 1:No, we cover movies and shows and all types of content uh, so upset that he don't even know what to say right now.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah no, this movie was just a fucking disappointment, like it was a um. I've been like trying to protect this movie this all year since uh, since I heard about bill Skarsgård being signed on to this movie, it was like I remember I was just like, just give it a fucking chance to everyone. I was like, just give it a chance. First images of him where he has a short hair, a fucking shitload of tattoos. I was like just give it a chance.
Speaker 1:We never know.
Speaker 2:Yeah, which is not a bad look. Honestly, it looked pretty sick whenever he had the crow makeup. Finally which it wasn't makeup, it was fucking ink, tattoo ink that he used. That's a crazy concept. No, it was black blood, bro. No, it was ink. He grabbed the ink and shit Black blood. No, no, no, I'm not going to give this anything.
Speaker 1:I thought it was symbolizing when the one guy who was on Limbo he was like with this black blood, you shall write what is wrong or whatever Bullshit.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I mean whatever. And then I remember, even when the first trailer came out, I was like I mean it looks okay and I was kind of hyping it up and I probably spoke a little too highly on it as well. But it's just like I always have that thing where it's just like just go into the movie, just don. But it's just like I always have that thing where it's just like just go into the movie, just don't think about like the remake that's or the first original crow, don't think about that, just look at it as a fucking movie by itself. And I was like, yeah, that was bad, I had to. I I tried to judge it by multiple lenses and stuff like that. First and foremost, the most important lens that I like to go through is the. Just a movie by itself, its own thing, right. And I was like, yeah, it's all right kind of thing. And then I looked at it as a uh, the comic book lens, right.
Speaker 2:And that one just got me kind of upset because I only have read a fucking couple pages of the of the crow, the, the graphic novel and stuff, and like it doesn't fit because, or like it missed the whole point of it, like in the very beginning the issue that I read or whatever. There was a host of nonsense talking about the writer and about why he wrote the crow, or it was about him, and then it was just like he had to deal with the death of his wife or girlfriend or whomever his partner and him dealing with the grief of it, and then that's a big theme of the comic. It's like grief and anger and then feeling so alone and helpless and dark and shit, and then that's. It was completely missing the movie because he was just on a mission to bring her back to life or whatever right.
Speaker 2:And there's that, and then that's that one lens, the second lens I go more into it, but it's just whatever. And then that's that one lens, the second lens I go more into it, but it's just whatever. And the third lens was the as a remake, which is a lens I don't like going into, but it was just like damn, like this just made me think it was like this is so different from the other one. It's like you know where. It's just like okay, I have to change a couple things to make it different, but the things I change are, like, the most important things to the character you know it's like ah yeah, so what?
Speaker 1:I haven't seen the the og one. What exactly was like so different between the both of them?
Speaker 2:I would say the first thing just stylistic of it, it just it's a dark movie and shit right. And in the very beginnings of you know he comes, he becomes the crow, whatever, right, right, and it's just like. It's kind of such a baseline where it's just like he's the crow and that's that's who we're dealing with and he's super overpowered and so he doesn't get hit by a couple slugs and go down whatever what's the timeline difference?
Speaker 1:because in this new one that just came out, it shows us, uh, how quickly he fell in love with this new girl that he just met in this one they're already like gonna get married oh, so they already have like established relationship?
Speaker 2:yeah, we don't do like the whole like love story with them. And it's like I was like, okay, you know what the movie I thought was really funny and I had to think about it. Okay, you know, they met in rehab right, broke out of rehab right, went to a fucking penthouse hotel no apartment, right and just started doing a lot of fucking drugs drinking and then over a weekend they fell in love. Dog, like this is not pure love, this is not true love, you know, or is it took a love potion, yeah, and then that's what I was just thinking. I was just like is this real? Like is this love, is this love?
Speaker 1:I don't know, sorry, and it's like didn't make fucking sense, you know so in the first one I'm assuming they cut to the chase like, yeah, they're in love, he kills, they kill, they kill her, he's coming back, yeah, he's gonna cook y'all, yeah, and then it was just like him. It's like revenge kind of thing, and it's like this one is and like you know, whenever, he's coming back, yeah, he's gonna cook y'all, yeah.
Speaker 2:And then it was just like him. It's like revenge kind of thing and it's like this one is and, like you know, whenever he's the crow, he's like he's. He kind of gets like a different energy. It's just like more mystical. Or it's been a while since I've seen the movie too, but that's how I kind of remember it with this. It was just like he seemed kind of lost. He was just like what's happening, ah, it seemed like the way his reaction to this was him turning into a superhero, you know.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it felt like him dying twice was kind of stupid. Or the second time he died well, he fell out of love. I felt like that part was stupid because he literally could have brought her back. Why, even If you know that he wasn't going to be able to do that, why even mention it?
Speaker 2:Yeah, and it's like, why even talk about that? Because it's like, no, I mean like, why make him fall? And like you fell out, you're so deeply in love with this person and after one single action or something you've been told, then it just you do a whole flip on it. Just a little bit of doubt, just a little bit of doubt. Yeah, nice firm foundation. They got running right to fucking drug addicts and stuff.
Speaker 1:It's like yeah, bro, you didn't know. Your girl got a train ran on her and they're like after five years of marriage.
Speaker 2:What would you do after that?
Speaker 1:Kill everyone. Yeah, it's the same exact thing, right?
Speaker 2:Yeah, exactly no you just run a train on all of them. There you go.
Speaker 2:One track all the trains, there you go. Yeah, one track, five trains. Shoot you, motherfucker. Yeah, because I was like to get even. I just had to like fuck all y'all hell and then like that was just kind of dumb and then he had to like recommit himself. It was like my soul for hers, hey. And I was just like I was like, oh he's, he's actually trying to save her. I was just like that kind of like takes away from it, because it's like the grief and then that's important thing that you actually have to go through your grief and shit, you know, and then you just have to live with it.
Speaker 1:You know, no, take, no taking backseas, you know yeah, I didn't get much grief from this movie, but I just seemed like.
Speaker 2:And then he just a fucking. He was smoking weed and shit while he was the crow yeah, that's crazy, but you were right.
Speaker 1:Like he was lost and I can definitely see how he uh he was. Just when he became the crow he just seemed like himself, just able to.
Speaker 2:He's just deadpool now, yeah and then I'm able to take all those hits or like, because it's like even too, because I guess it's like with the crow, is like you know. He put the jacket on. He put the makeup on immediately. That was his first move, because you just got to build the symbol. You have to build the character right, and he was like I'm I'm a theater kid. I know what I'm doing. You gotta put the makeup on, gotta hide to the shadows. Him he looked like he was trying to do a fucking uh. Whenever he tried to like get the person in the car, he put him up like he was a mugger and shit it's like god.
Speaker 2:Uh, what you think about this love story?
Speaker 1:I like the love part of it. I was like man, we're watching the falling our stars right now with this type of stuff. The way he, uh, the way they were just so in love that even after she left he would try to smell everything that they did together kind of thing, Like the part with the curtain. He was like weirdo. I know it's kind of weird a little bit. I'm kind of disappointed that I did that just on camera too.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you feel real proud. I don't even think it was like they haven't gotten to the real love and Falling in the Stars.
Speaker 1:That takes over like two years that book, that Like they haven't got to the real love, and Falling in the Stars, that takes over like two years that book?
Speaker 2:That's true, yeah, this happened over the course of a week, I think. Yeah, yeah, literally, and like, at this point they're still like you don't even know my favorite color yet. You don't know, fucking, my favorite food. Maybe you do. You don't know. You haven't met my mom yet.
Speaker 1:Oh, you do drugs. Oh yeah, me too, not anymore. I'm rehabilitated. Yeah, goes to the penthouse, like you said. Does drugs, has a lot of sex, does more drugs with friends. Now I guess they're in love.
Speaker 2:Yeah, exactly what happened. They want a hippie retreat too for something. That was just out of nowhere, right, that was really random, yeah, and that was just fucking crazy. What else did they do? Oh, yeah, then also too, in the 12-step program, I think, it says you can't date anyone for like a year while you're in the that's while you're in the program, I think. So it's like they didn't follow their 12 steps. And then also, rule of thumb you're not supposed to do drugs when you're on 12-step program I don't think you're supposed to leave the rehabilitation center either.
Speaker 1:I wonder if it was a psych ward thing, though I don't know they didn't look like they were psych ward because it's like what kind of re?
Speaker 2:well, if it's like because I think about the rehabs, you have to pay for it, right, those are the ones I think about. But then this there was like fences, like it was like court ordered, I'm assuming but it wasn't like cells or nobody in straight jackets or anything.
Speaker 1:Yeah, nobody like. I don't know what were people saying about this movie, though. I know you have your complaints, but what were other people complaining about the same things?
Speaker 2:Yeah, pretty much. Yeah, pretty much exactly what I said, and it's the first time I agree with a lot of other people. And then I would say some positives. Right, the design of the crow. Whenever he's the crow at the you know the last scene where he has his katana and then, you know, just going at it, that scene was pretty badass. And then with the orchestra playing the background, the way that his eye the melting, and then it kind of like looped down to his mouth, it looked pretty tight yeah that's one thing I got good.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's it.
Speaker 2:Oh then another thing the fucking villain, fucking stupid as shit. It was a fucking guy who sacrifices the innocent so he can live right. But it's like there's no reason for this, though we don't have to do this, you know, if you're already saying that he would have been brought back to life anyway, then that's, that would have been it. It's all it had to be, which is the big baddie, you know? That's all he had to be.
Speaker 1:He didn't have to be any more than that he could have just been the guy that killed her, yeah yeah, that's all he had to be.
Speaker 2:He didn't have to be this little demon shit he really didn't, because uh even without the voice.
Speaker 1:He could have still been manipulative and be like, yeah, kill this careless person right now.
Speaker 2:Yeah, or then just even if they were partying and shit altogether, and then fucking, he accidentally kills someone and then she's the last witness, so then he has her killed and then boom, that's it. Also thought of it too that way With this movie. I feel like there's so many things here that could just take tweaks and readjustments and stuff like that to be a good movie, because it had like some of the pieces there and some of them can be retooled into a good movie.
Speaker 1:But yeah, what for example? Huh, what for example?
Speaker 2:Like the part I just said.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:That part about like you could take the way the whole demon shit, take that out of the movie, right, and then um, well, I guess they've had to find a way to tie it with them going to hell like the way.
Speaker 1:Whatever she, you know where she's going. You're not going to be able to get her back.
Speaker 2:Yeah what if she? What if she? Okay, then then with that, like I fucking I hate being those people, just like, you know, just do those people who just do the what if? How are they going to bring the Iron man into the Deadpool, whatever? It's like that. I hate being like this. They can do whatever they want, right? But then with that, though, it's just like she could be going to hell regardless. She's a drug addict who knows what she's done on drugs. She killed somebody.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it happens.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but then like in our arts, and then thing where we're saying right now, like you retool that and then have her just so going to hell or just get rid of the whole hell part to you know, just say that he just wants to bring her back, just take away that whole fucking piece.
Speaker 1:You know what happened in the first and the OG for them to get killed, they just got broken into a wrong place, I think.
Speaker 2:they broke into their apartment and shit, and then then, yeah, they fucking killed, no, they raped her and then killed her and then threw him out the window and that was it. That was it, and you never see that bitch again because you know there's no need to.
Speaker 1:You know he's gonna come back and kill all of them yeah, I mean they don't bring her back.
Speaker 2:There's no point to bring her back.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, I guess they try to make it like his motive in this one, not so much like.
Speaker 2:Revenge.
Speaker 1:Yeah, not so much. Just I'm going to kill y'all because y'all did this.
Speaker 2:Mm-hmm, I think, yeah, it fucking. I don't even know what to say about this movie. It's like I remember I told you I was like I almost want Halloween kills on this movie.
Speaker 1:You're going to start destroying the recliner there in the movie theater in front of everybody. Yeah, I should have.
Speaker 2:And it's also just, I guess, like a thing where I've been excited to watch this movie and I was talking it up for so much and then I had to eat my words immediately, you know.
Speaker 1:Yeah, at what point in the movie, when you're watching it, did you realize? Damn, this whole suck um the whole beginning. Are you talking?
Speaker 2:about the love story thing yeah, that happened. It's funny. It's half the movie right, yeah, but it happens like it's the most insignificant part, I think really one thing I did like about the movie was a lot of the kills.
Speaker 1:He hit him with the uh, with the katana through his chest. That was insane.
Speaker 2:Oh, I like one kill where he just shot himself and then just and then just went behind him and stuff. I don't even remember how he killed the main guy.
Speaker 1:He snapped his neck, I think Did he cut his head off.
Speaker 2:No, he didn't cut his head off. He got someone's head off Because, remember, he's on stage and he throws out their head.
Speaker 1:Well, okay, so he takes him to like that limbo dimension.
Speaker 2:And then he drowns him.
Speaker 1:He's like waterboarding him and he's like go to hell or something like that, and then he goes to hell. Yeah, that's so stupid.
Speaker 2:And I'm like I hate it too, because I'm never. I'm not a hard person on these kind of things. I've never been hard on movies. I said Madam Web was good and I still stand by it, but it's just like at least it makes sense in itself, sort of. You know, this was just like God exactly. You know, I've been cuter. They were extending the time that they were together and then they actually went to read. No, they actually helped each other on tulsa program yeah, and also, too.
Speaker 2:It's like throwing this whole fucking drug element into it as well, which is crazy. Saying like they're crazy and they escaped from rehab. Who is this? Pete davidson? Yeah, bro, it's some freaking. I think he went back recently.
Speaker 1:I hope he's doing well uh, I haven't heard about him in a while.
Speaker 2:A little bit no, he's, I mean like he still does. He's still been on tour this whole time. He's working and it's not like he's. He's a big theater act and stuff. He's a great comedian. He just has a problem with drugs, where he keeps on going in and out of prison no, in and out of rehabs all the time Happens.
Speaker 1:Happens to all of us, yeah.
Speaker 2:Only been three times so far, only been two.
Speaker 1:Yeah. So yeah, you're a nay on this. Nay, Nay, big, nay, big nays. I don't know how to feel about it honestly, because I kind of enjoy the fighting. Yeah, I enjoyed the action aspect and the love story of it, but I know that's not what the movie's supposed to be about. I mean partially, but not like.
Speaker 2:But if you enjoyed it, you enjoy it, though their kind of romance just felt like a lust kind of thing. Okay, I'll give that to you. The romance was pretty cute and shit. It was just like it didn't make sense, I guess.
Speaker 1:I don't know, Maybe I'm just so I'm going to say yay, but then I might be on a loss though, because I said the Alien movie was bad, and apparently it was.
Speaker 2:Everybody loved it and it was really good, yeah, and my like. Whenever I reviewed it, I said I withdraw, I withdraw my vote on this. I can't, I can't say it's good or not, because I had a bad experience with it, but that's just because of me. But, like, just do what your heart tells you. Did you walk out of the theater and think it was a waste of your two hours? No, then it's a yay, yeah, see, easy, breezy, there's no reason for us to be fucking so hard and tearing shit apart. I hate doing this. Nay, yay, cool, yeah, I want to talk about Strange Darling, strange Darling, let's hear it. This I want to talk about Strange, darling Strange.
Speaker 2:Darling, let's hear it this movie fucks dude.
Speaker 2:Okay, so indie movie of the year or movie of the year. Movie of the year. Movie of the year. Just to do a caveat, it's like I love Dune, part 2 and stuff, but I'm very biased with that. Dune has a very special place in my heart. So there's that. This movie was a thriller, psychological thing thing and it's so fucking good. Okay, like I'm guessing you haven't heard of it, right? Okay, in the very beginning it tells you about the serial killer that has been moving, uh, state to state on a kind of like cross-country murder spree kind of thing, and this was like dark, this would be like the last couple days of the serial killer, right, and then like it kind of goes through the journey of like a girl and a guy and then they meet up and then they just go on crazy adventures kind of thing, and it's so fucking good and it's like like the first thing that it did was like it's filmed on 30, 35 millimeter. I was like what the fuck is that?
Speaker 2:hippie shit boy. And then, as soon as it started, though, I was like oh, I see it, I see it, I think. I think it's like that thing where someone tells you to look for it. So you're like oh, I see it, you know it's like the.
Speaker 1:Is it the, the camera that has like the little dots while it's recording?
Speaker 2:uh, sometimes, yeah, yeah, sometimes they'll do like little white spots and, uh, it just looked very crisp. And then I really don't know. I think it's, I think this is what happened. It was very vibrant the colors and it looked really fucking good. It's, it was so good, man, it was so fucking good and like, yeah, it was just really good.
Speaker 2:Like I remember I walked out of it I was like this was fucking amazing, dude. I immediately I went home and then I, I, I was like, and I already have plans to watch another couple movies that day it was yesterday and I was like I'm gonna watch that movie again. And then then I was just looking at times I was like, okay, if I make this time that I can go to this one, so then I want to go see blink twice. And then immediately after that, I just rushed into another theater watch it again and, trust me, fucking dude, it was fucking amazing and it was very artistic. And then, like you know how, like, whenever movies try to do like a big kids also too, I'm not gonna spoil this movie at all. I don't want to talk about it because it's like that's how good it is. It's just like you just have to watch this. It does like a big lot of swings where it's just like it's. It does like a title crawl like texas chainsaw massacre, where it reads the text as well and like it's like it's like one of those movies, like it's. It's like the bad movies that try to be artistic, try to copy these kind of movies. It's like that. It was just like, oh, we're going to put these factors in, but then this one actually has it for a reason, because there's like the movies broken up to seven chapters, right, oh, like Long Legs, yeah, crazy. And seven chapters right, yeah, that had chapters. Right, yeah, seven chapters, right, yeah, that had chapters. Right, yeah, this one's seven chapters any, uh, eulogy, and like they don't do them chronologically.
Speaker 2:So then it's like it's like a who who done it kind of thing, where it's just like there's mysteries, and then it's just like what's going on? Because it starts off, yeah, because it starts off with like the first couple seconds. It's like a dude no, a dude is chasing a girl in a car and shit. And you're just like what's going on? And he's just crazy. He's getting coked the fuck up and then he shoots at her and everything. You don't know what the fuck's happening. And they were just fucking crazy. And then it just unfolds and you're just like, damn, this is crazy, dude. It was fucking amazing. I'll show you the trailer later. It was fucking amazing. It's a yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:Definitely a yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, definitely, definitely. What did you really really love?
Speaker 1:about this movie? What set it apart? What told you? This has got to be one of the movies, if not the movie of the year.
Speaker 2:Let's see he just smoked cigarettes throughout the whole movie.
Speaker 1:Ah, the Christian Bale diet For the machinist.
Speaker 2:Fucking Joaquin Phoenix in it too, for the Joker, yeah, let's think I would say like the color red, it's like it does the red light thing a lot. And then there's like scenes with reds and shit. And then the girl in the beginning she has red scrubs, red hair and, um, red shoes and then she's driving a red car. So the movie's sponsored by the bloods pretty much. I don't think they're in business anymore, and then he's wearing like a lumberjack shirt thing.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's so fucking good, yeah, uh, yeah, but it's more like it's bigger, it's like a coat kind of thing.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it was super fucking cute. I uh, yeah, but it's more like it's bigger, it's like a coat kind of thing. Yeah, it was super fucking cute. I just don't want to spoil the movie. It's just like, yeah, like you should watch this okay, yeah, basically it's a yeah.
Speaker 1:That must be that good.
Speaker 2:It must be that good, if you're not trying to spoil it and telling me to watch it yeah, yeah, I want people to watch this movie, just so I could talk about it and just get other people's reaction of it. Okay, it's like whenever uh salt burn came out. I just wanted people to watch it, just so we could all be disturbed, disturbed together.
Speaker 1:Is that the one where tom holland was getting back shots?
Speaker 2:no, no, that's the crowded room. This is the one with, uh, barry coonans, whatever where he um, he drinks bath water. No, he drinks nut, drinks nut water, nut nut, like a dude jacked off in the shower, no, in the tub, he eats it. He goes like that right and then he eats out a girl on her period. Okay, what else happens? He just randomly jacks off a guy, as one does. Yeah, he fucks a grave site. Cool, I think that's it. It's in plenty holes in the grave site. Yeah, no, his friend just died and shit, well, he killed him, I think. Yeah, I think he poisoned him. Yeah, so he poisoned him and then he started just fucking the dirt where at the grave site huh?
Speaker 2:this is your joker. Yeah, yeah, pretty much. Oh no, I just well. I got news on that later. Um, yeah, but then this one is just like 10 out of 10 just throughout, and just the vibes that he gave off and the yeah, which is fucking amazing. It's like thriller.
Speaker 2:You said right yeah yeah, serial killers, all the shebangs, and yeah, okay. And then another movie that I saw this past weekend was the Blink Twice. It is Shannon Tatum, directed by his fiancée, zoe Kravitz. Yeah, it was pretty cute. He's a Zoe. Yeah, they're engaged, interesting. They did a funny. I saw a thing where they were doing an interview. You know just dumb questions and stuff. You know, of course, you just got to pump a lot of Fuck up my algorithm to make my all my page on youtube just all link twice things. Um, she got asked. She was like what was the the best gift you have ever been given? And he goes no, she, he asked her right, and they're saying like sending each other looking at each other and he, he looks down at her ring and she was like that doesn't count. And I was just like and he was just like, hey, I didn't say anything. Um, this movie is a thriller, psychological, whatever. Um, yeah, it was pretty cute. Men are horrible. This is one of those bad boys, you know uh, so he's like a manipulative.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you don't care about this movie, right?
Speaker 1:Well, I mean, the trailer spells it all. Honestly, I don't know, I haven't even seen the trailer for it.
Speaker 2:I'm sure you have the trailer's been playing a lot, but then, pretty much, bill and Ernie, you invite a girl over no, he invited some girl over with their friend, right. And then they just do drugs all every night nice, yeah, every night. And then they started forgetting a lot of things, right, and turns out they're being drugged and stuff. No shit, right, buy a perfume that they always spray onto, like every day they spray perfume, perfume. And then, um, it's like the main guy, chanam tanum, and then his little brag tag team of boys, you know they all pretty much got a girl and said like, hey, let's, let's go to my island, or let's go to the island, and they each have their own girl that they fucking pretty much abused or, however, some rape, some don't, I don't know, I assume they're all raping, right, you would assume right. And um, yeah, then there's a weird thing where there's like venom, there's like snakes, and then if you drink the snake venom, it actually cures your memory and then you remember everything that you forgot.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it was pretty good. Yeah, I mean. Yeah, I didn't, it was okay.
Speaker 1:Just some rich people shit.
Speaker 2:Yeah. And then it just like turned into oh it was funny too, there's a guy there too. And he instead, oh it was funny too, there's a guy there too, and instead of him being one of the boys, he was one of the girls when he was getting fucking trucked, Damn yeah. So that was funny, or just funny, because then he was like what's happening and he has no idea?
Speaker 1:what's happening? Yeah, it was pretty cute. It's like that one song.
Speaker 2:I've had so much pussy that I turned to bussy can't say, I can't say, I would say this is definitely a yay movie. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, maybe we'll see what's up.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so I the thing about the yay, yay, yay nay system.
Speaker 2:It's just more okay, like I think of it in yeah.
Speaker 2:I think of it more like when you walked out, did you regret the last two hours of your life? I think that's the question really Do you regret it or not? Mm-hmm, because if it was like, eh, then it's good enough. It's simple as that. Yeah, strange Darling is fucking amazing. I've been listening to the soundtrack today as well fire soundtrack, uh yeah, and it's like one of those rule of thumbs where it's like either you notice the soundtrack because it's really good or you notice it because it's really bad. Yeah, and then a good, a good, normal soundtrack you don't even hear because it's really good or you notice it because it's really bad, yeah.
Speaker 2:And then a good, a good, normal soundtrack. You don't even hear it until like yeah. So it's either you notice it for one, one or two reasons. Alright, yeah, let's cut for the next. Cool, okay. And then, jumping into our news, we have the big dog, the mustache, wearing happy, positive attitude, dad jokes to the max, fucking khaki pants all day, every day. Fucking southern accent, a little fucking southern hospitality. We have Ted Lasso will be returning for a season four. Looks like a lot of the writing crew is coming back and stuff like that. And yeah, looks like we're going to get a season four of this bad boy Nice.
Speaker 2:I've never even seen the first episode yeah, I binge-watched it a couple months ago, I think.
Speaker 1:I mean, if you watch it enough to care about a show about soccer, it's got to be decent.
Speaker 2:I mean the show's not about soccer.
Speaker 1:Well, I, it's gotta be decent.
Speaker 2:I mean, the show's not about soccer. Well, I mean, yeah, but that's like the driving point. Yeah, that's what. That's the whole point of the show. He's an american coach in the uk. Yeah, that's more of a tag, though it's just more about him trying to build relationships and then also dealing with his problems that he has. Yeah, if anything is more on his fucking what's that shit called mental health, it's like fucking. It's like rocky. Rocky's not about boxing, it's about a guy overcoming odds and shit. That's what it's about. It deals with more like themes and shit. Okay, yeah, because if it was just a movie about boxing, it would just be literally just box, like in the ring, fighting. That's all it ever be.
Speaker 2:I'm trying to think another example it's like fucking the crow we think it's a movie about fucking revenge and love or whatever, but it's really just about doing drugs. No, god damn. Yeah, but I'm fucking excited for that. Let's see how soon they can get this shit off the ground. If they're starting now, fucking, maybe we'll see 26, 27, maybe, maybe That'll be a minute.
Speaker 2:I don't know how fast TV shows run, though. I don't know anything. There's going to be a Vision show. I forgot what the Vision show is going to be called. I think it's called Vision, double Vision or some shit like that. No, double Vision used to be like a DVD thing, whatever.
Speaker 2:Anyway, it's a trilogy now that they're doing these bad boys are doing. Wandavision was the first one, agatha all along is the second one, and then everything tops off with Vision's show, the white Vision. Yeah, yeah, you know, bringing back the greatness, yeah, and I think that's pretty cool and interesting. So it makes me think, whenever we get the big Wanda all along, is that going to how strong the tie is going to be to Wanda in that movie? Because Wanda is still out there just clicking around, so I wonder what's her part to play in this right now? And then, of course, we got the big batty Vigie coming back and yeah, this time there's the white vision. But then his mind's been awakened to all the memories he had of his past life and stuff. So I assume things go back to normal. But I'm guessing he's gonna have that thing where he's like oh I don't know what's happening, I don't know what to do with life. Am I a ship or am I not a ship, or whatever?
Speaker 1:you watch the show right bro, you watch the show right, bro? Wandavision. Yeah, oh, okay, okay, yeah, watch it, just because I was going to have to do with the Multiverse of Madness, which in the end, you didn't even need to watch it because they just recapped it in the movie.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I mean you don't have to watch anything. Yeah, true, that's my rule of thumb Never watch anything.
Speaker 1:You're welcome, true, that's. That's my rule of thumb never watch anything. But yeah, nah, I mean, maybe I'll give it a shot, I guess but I'm not watching the agatha one.
Speaker 2:Why not? I don't know. Yeah, okay, and then also another factor, ultron, is going to return back into them. Oh yeah age of ultron.
Speaker 2:Yeah, um, I think it's interesting because it's I think it's a very important part that Vision was actually supposed to be Ultron and then he's like a product of him, of Tony Stark, of Bruce Banner and also the Soul Stone, and so, yeah, I think it's kind of like the dynamics and stuff, just like see how that plays out. Age of Ultron is actually a goated movie. I think it's kind of like the dynamics and stuff. It's just like see how that plays out and stuff.
Speaker 1:Age of Ultron is actually a goated movie.
Speaker 2:I wouldn't say goated, but I like it.
Speaker 1:Looking back, it was really good.
Speaker 2:Really really good. I liked it. Yeah, I just didn't get a hard-on for it or anything. I got a hard-on for A Strange Darling, though.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah.
Speaker 2:Yep strange horror dog okay, and then another bit of news that we had was, um, the movie metallopolis, the francis for corpola. The movie had a recently released trailer where, um, in the beginning titles, they showed the title card of the godfather and they showed a quote from a reporter that said the movie was trash. They noted the reporter and then the news journal they worked with, they did it for the Godfather, they also did it for Apocalypse. Now they did a total, I think, four of those bad boys.
Speaker 2:And then, with that, though, the trailer made it, the point the trailer tried to make was saying like, hey, the critics said these movies were bad too, but look at them, it the godfather, one of the best, best fucking things of all time, or whatever, right, and then a populace, now great movie as well. I've seen it, but that's what people say, right, so they're saying it's like the critics got this bad boy wrong. Right, that's what they're pretty much saying. Right, and it was a hard trailer. It was a badass because it was like they think they know what they was like. They think they know what they're talking about. They think they know what they're talking about. Turns out, the quotes were fake. They made them up, they pulled the trailer out there and said like we fucked up, this was not real. And then later on they said it was AI generated and I don't know how that works, but yeah.
Speaker 1:Like somebody made it, ai generated truly I think they use things in it.
Speaker 2:I don't know what, I don't know to what extent, but ai had a thing to do with these quotes to be put in and it's like this is something that a simple fact check can prove or not. Prove this, right, right, and this makes it looks bad. I think they already gave a date. No, it comes out next month, I believe by. It's come out by lion's gate, I believe. And um, yeah, they just kind of fucked up with that is not doing any good things for the fucking movie right now. Hopefully it makes money, hopefully, whatever, I don't care, I'm gonna watch it regardless, but yeah, uh, speaking on ai trailers, for example dude, dude, I hate AI.
Speaker 1:I kind of really just don't like it at all, because so you know how they leaked those trailers at the D23 convention thing. Yeah, for the new Captain America and the new what was the other one, fantastic Four?
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:And some other stuff. So there's this channel on YouTube called screen crave, I think, yep, bro, they've been making like ai generated trailers for a while now and this shit is so like it. Look, you can tell it's ai, but not at first glance, but eventually you can. Yeah, and I hate it. I really don't like it yeah, shout out to ai.
Speaker 2:We have actually have a on on podcast as well. Shout out BuzzFeed, the AI host.
Speaker 1:No, but no, our AI is good when it comes to like the visual stuff. Oh, so now we're doing bad. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Exactly, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2:Now we're drawing some lines in the sand Fucking. Now we have to separate them. Make sure they got their own drinking fountains too.
Speaker 1:Now right, what the fuck you talking about? Tic-tac-toe? I'm about to say tic-tac-toe, oh okay, yeah, but yeah, I don't like, I don't like that, yeah, yeah, I don't care, but I am excited to see the new francis ford coppola movie. I mean, that guy's a genius. We had that whole phase with the offer and the godfather. It was such a good. It was such a good time it was such a good time. I love those movies and I love that show and miles teller.
Speaker 2:Yeah, shout out, miles teller. I miss that dog. Um, I oh, that reminded me. I'm gonna put it. No, I'm gonna. I'll say it now, and then I have to loop back around to that, okay. Uh, I remember someone asked me about, like um, it was a hessigan and eddie they. They were talking about my favorite actor and they said henry cavill, right, and I was like, if you think it's henry cavill, you don't really know me that well. Yeah, who do you think my favorite?
Speaker 1:actor is has it changed recently?
Speaker 2:I don't believe so.
Speaker 1:No, any ideas, any ideas I would say, uh, honestly, I can't even say there's. I feel like there's just so many like but me, but you, but me. Yeah, still, miles Teller, that's one of them. That's one of them. See, you said that's one of them. Well, you said your favorite, right?
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Your favorite out right now, timothy? Yeah, there you go.
Speaker 2:Yeah see, and like I don't know, jason Momoa fucking Batista yeah.
Speaker 1:I remember, oh my God, Batista yeah.
Speaker 2:I remember whenever I was talking about it they were just like you're just listed off the cast from Dune. I was like I might be. So what if?
Speaker 1:you are, then you should know, then you should fucking know, yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, because I was like Timothy's, such an easy one, and I talk about his movies all speaking of that, the new Batista movie, did you see it?
Speaker 1:I don't care for it. Or the trailer for the the spy the spy or something it's like. He's like a hitman who puts out a hit on himself because he finds out he's dying yeah and then hands up, he's not gonna die yeah, I would sue so hard for that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't care. I mean I'll watch it maybe.
Speaker 1:This seems like a fun action movie yeah.
Speaker 2:And then you also have the Spy 2 that recently came out as well. I think it came on Amazon Prime, it's whatever. I just haven't watched them. I'm not into comedies.
Speaker 1:And that new Rambo movie came out on Netflix. I'm sorry. The new Rambo movie. I'm sorry.
Speaker 2:Rebel Ridge. You said Rambo, yeah, rambo. You said Rambo, yeah, rambo yeah.
Speaker 1:Last Blood? Yeah, rebel Ridge. Where are you talking about On Netflix? Rebel Ridge? It's this guy. It's this guy pretty much. He goes through this town and he essentially takes down the whole PD by himself.
Speaker 2:Oh, I haven't heard of him. No, rebel Ridge.
Speaker 1:So it came out recently. I remember I saw the trailer for it and I was like damn, that looks kind of good. And people were like this is literally just Rambo. First Blood, first Blood.
Speaker 2:It's just called First.
Speaker 1:Blood. Yeah, they said it's literally this. And I was like, I'll still probably watch it. I'm probably going to watch it here pretty soon, it looks, I mean it looks good, I might.
Speaker 2:I might have to get into it, I don't know. Yeah, it's funny. The rambles had a funny line of movies names. It was first blood, uh ramble, first blood. Part no ramble, first blood two, I think, then ramble three, then rambo and then uh rambo, last blood. I think it's something like that.
Speaker 1:I can't remember seeing a rambo movie they're pretty, they're.
Speaker 2:I mean, they're just 80s, you know what I mean. Yeah, the first one's a lot more, you know, grounded and shit, and then you know, just go off the walls after that. Yeah, oh, this one reminds me of what I was going to talk about. I remember I watched a kind of like interview kind of thing with Francis Ford Coppola, where general shit like that, and I would just always think I was like he's one of those artsy motherfuckers who like think he's so above it all.
Speaker 2:You know what I mean he has like that ego, yeah, and I mean he has right to it, whatever. But it was just funny. While watching I was like I don't think he would like like someone, like like regular people, like it's like I'm too good for this. You know I could be wrong, but it's just like that's the kind of energy I got off. I was just like I could see it.
Speaker 1:I mean, when you make a movie like the godfather and then it probably just goes to your head yeah, and then, well, even to make something like this, you need that kind of attitude.
Speaker 2:It's like you know what like they say, you know what they the constantly thing thing they say about, like michael jordan, that he's fucking crazy and he's an asshole, but it's like you kind of need that kind of dog to be him. You know? Heck, no, but yeah, I'll watch it, whatever, I don't give a fuck. Shout out Boof's in it. Shout out the dog. Adam Driver as well. I recently saw a, you know listened to a podcast with two comedians. They used to be dating and then it was fucking, what's that dude's name? It's a damn, I forgot both their names, whatever. But uh, they were dating at the time of this. And then they, when the music they covered was fucking marriage story, right, and then they talked about that. They had kind of like similar issues just because, like one lives on one coast, one lives on the other coast they didn't have a kid though yeah, they didn't have a kid, but they just talking about it or just like we have to like, like for future, why they say.
Speaker 2:They both said that they got kind of stressed out watching the first time because they had to think about it was like well, long term, like we have to make a decision on where we stay, right.
Speaker 2:And then, like she was even saying, she was like I know you're not gonna leave new york, so most likely I have to move over there like to be there full time and stuff like that, and they're both comedians, working comedians, so then there'll be the you know like draws and like whoa, who's gonna do this, who's gonna do that? And then they kind of like take sides during the interview and it was just so fucking like damn, this is, this is like writing on the wall kind of thing. That's what it felt like. Who knows what actually happened with their breakup, but it was just like that. There's just awkward to like what to to A movie broke them up.
Speaker 1:That's kind of sad yeah.
Speaker 2:Of course not that, but who knows why they broke up. But yeah, oh.
Speaker 1:No, no, I forgot, that's him. It's probably. The movie was just like that friend that the girl has who tells them everything they think they want to hear, or even, with the guy, tells them everything they think they're saying themselves, but it ends up just being manipulation.
Speaker 2:Heck. And then the last bit of news we have for today we have the Batman. It's confirmed to be starting filming in 2025. Ooh.
Speaker 1:Now we have to wait like 10 years for it to come out.
Speaker 2:Yeah, like 26, I'm guessing. Why can't we just have a fucking movie filmed over a weekend and just come out the next day?
Speaker 1:Right.
Speaker 2:Yeah, like what they did in the good old days or whatever. These actors aren't doing anything every day. Yeah, they're just making thousands of movies every year and shit, but then, yeah, it's just that's tying to Barry that we talked about earlier. Yeah, that's all the news I got. Do you want to talk?
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, what's up I'm coming up on. So I'm coming up on the last episodes of Kengen Ashura on Netflix. Great anime, I love it so far. So the first anime I've seen in a while. And then I restarted Prison Break Watching that right now. Oh man, it's as good as ever, as good as I remember it, it's so good.
Speaker 2:And I noticed it was resurgent because it just got on Netflix, right?
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, exactly yes. And then obviously Dexter, dexter On season six or seven. I believe You've been running through this shit, running through it, buddy.
Speaker 2:It's really good. I actually like my action. Oh what?
Speaker 1:And what else have I seen?
Speaker 2:Some porn.
Speaker 1:I think that's it.
Speaker 2:That's it. That's something. What about you?
Speaker 1:I'm going to go through my list. I already talked about some of the movies that you watched. Hmm, I said you already talked about some of the movies that you watched. Yeah, you watched hella movies this past week. Yeah, I mean, that's every week.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's true mmhmm, like last weekend, I saw Aliens, cuckoo and Borderlines. Yeah, aliens, cuckoo and Borderlines. Yeah, I talked about those movies. I'm still going through Game of Thrones. This weekend I haven't watched anything Game of Thrones-wise just because it's. I guess I kind of give myself a break unintentionally on the weekends. It's a grind.
Speaker 1:That show's a grind. No, it's not really.
Speaker 2:It's just like you don't think so. No, it's just like, honestly, it's honestly just more of a question do I want to sleep or not? It's just that it's a good show, it'll keep you going, and stuff like that. You just have to watch it. Yeah, I'm on season six. I want to say so. Then I'm only. I got six, seven and eight to go through, so it's three seasons and then bada-boom, I'm done with Game of Thrones for the time being and then after that, then I'll start my deep dive on the lore of game of thrones and stuff like them. But I'm not up. I'm not up to there yet.
Speaker 1:I'll get there eventually.
Speaker 2:This is all just so you can watch house of dragon right no, I'm kind of I don't know, I'm just watching just because it's a good show. And, um, I know a lot of people talk about the peak, like it's like peak and shit like that, and they say, like season six, that's where things get like really things, and like even so far up to this point, there's been a lot of crazy shit happening, like I remember being like what the fuck anything? And the thing that sucks is just like I've heard like rumblings of things that I have have have happened in the past, so it was like it throws me like I kind of like already get an inkling on what's gonna happen and certain characters who live, who die. Who tells our story? That's hamilton, right, yeah, yeah, then something about his bitch. What?
Speaker 1:no, wait, wait wait, you used to know the whole thing no, I never did.
Speaker 2:I just used to watch it a lot. That was always a perfect song, no thing to get drunk, anyway. Yeah, so I'm season six and then I'm going to get through it soon. Right now, I don't have any plans to watch any shows. At the very moment, there are shit that's coming out Like I need. There's a lot of million things I need to get caught up to. It's just about what do I want to pick and just about sleep. That's honestly my thing. It's just like either I'm going to watch something or I'm going to go to sleep, and it's like one or the other for me. But yeah, yeah, I think it's been one Fair trade-off.
Speaker 1:Yeah, oh do you have anything else or anything else you're going to be watching? No, I'm going to go check out that Stranger Eileen movie for sure though, yes, this weekend we have the Afraid. What I haven't heard of that one it's the AI one. Oh oh yeah, the creators of Megan made that movie. Yeah, and it's like a whole house, right, the AI house.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you showed me the trailer.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, that's funny as fuck, I showed you the trailer. I don't even remember.
Speaker 2:Yeah, okay, that one, that one seems interesting to say the least, care less about this movie. Yeah, there you go. Yeah, but yeah, I guess I think the whole twist, the twistiness of it is gonna be like ha, there's actually some bitch behind the screen doing this the whole time. That'd be insane, I think that's what's gonna happen.
Speaker 1:There's gonna be, like some of the boy shit, where it's not even like a haunted doll, it's just a dude living in the walls the whole time.
Speaker 2:Oh the boys in the wall, whatever. Yeah, the boy the orphan or something. The boy, the boy. Yeah, yeah, it's like that doll. Yeah, I never. I saw like part of it as a kid. Then I was like this is too slow of a burn for me whenever I was pretty slow burn I was like, well, I'm gonna.
Speaker 2:Like I saw it as a child, so I was like anything was too slow. Yeah, um, yeah, there's a frame. There's also going to be a Batman re-release coming out on Tuesday, which this will already be out by that time. But, yeah, there's going to be a re-release of the Batman. I think I might go watch that. It wasn't the thing.
Speaker 1:I want to watch X-Men 97. Yeah, yeah, it's really good. It's really good. Ooh, better make a name for myself. Yeah, oh, he dies in that hole too.
Speaker 2:No, get it yeah, sugar, I can't feel you no more. He's a rogue and rogues fucks magneo. He's fucking crazy dude what yeah, I don't care. Yeah, bro. Yeah, cause apparently he can fucking do like a force me to around himself or whatever, so that like they don't get, like yeah, so he could fuck her bro, didn't rogue couldn't fight him off?
Speaker 2:huh, isn't she super strong no, she was asking if she don't. They fuck like they're in love or whatever. I don't want to watch it anymore. Yeah, whenever that happened, because I was like you, love, you love.
Speaker 1:Gammon.
Speaker 2:Damn.
Speaker 1:Nah, that's going to. If I watch that I'm going to crash out, I'm going to break the table or something.
Speaker 2:Yeah, go, halloween kills on it.
Speaker 1:I'm going to pull a Henry on it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, what was that? Yeah, it was pretty good, though have you heard the shit about the creator?
Speaker 1:No.
Speaker 2:You haven't. No, he got fired right before the show released. And, um, yeah, he got fired right before. They didn't really say why. And then later on he would say it was like, nah, they didn't. They didn't. They fired because I'm gay, right? Uh, apparently no, uh, he also had an only fans as well. And then, uh, like he put did a whole post recently where he was like this this is why they fired me, because of a lot of this and that. And then Disney wrote back and said, no, this is actually wrong. He's using dick pics to everyone, or not dick pics, but like inappropriate photos. And then he got told not to do it. And then he would still continue to do it.
Speaker 1:They gave him a warning, I would have fired him on the spot.
Speaker 2:He's a showrunner, he's the boss for that show, oh my god bro yeah, so there's that, and then on for season two of the the x-men.
Speaker 2:Like he's not gonna be credited at all which is good, you know, yeah, good but it was just funny, though, because he was just like no, this is why they fired me. And then they actually snapped back at it. I was like that was actually pretty cool, because it's like no, no, no, you're the problem. I'm not the problem. I've said that to girls. It was just like oh no, it wasn't you. It wasn't you, you're fine, I'm just a piece of shit. I'm the problem. I'm your 13 reasons why I'm the one who hurt you. I'm the one who hurt you. I'm the one that doesn't care. You're my 10th reason. 10th reason Damn, I'm not even good enough. Which one's more important, would you say? The last reason, or the reason that set you off On this journey?
Speaker 1:Nah, I was gonna, I don't know which Wasn't Clay, the 10th reason, I don't remember. But yeah, I remember I didn't watch it, it was, it was. You're the regret. Oh shit, I should have made you. I should have married you a long time ago.
Speaker 2:Not too bad. You know this one. They talk about marriage and shit and they're kids who In the show. Oh, yeah, yeah, they're kids who. They're kids Everyone. They're like high schoolers dude.
Speaker 1:X, oh, what are you talking about? Oh yeah, oh no, you're talking about 13 reasons why yeah. What were you talking about?
Speaker 2:yeah, I don't know, I got confused, jesus. Yeah, I was gonna say where did the marriage come in? Um, I haven't seen. I only saw like part of the first. Uh, 13 reasons. Why is the first couple episodes maybe, or maybe the first episode? I didn't really get into it. And then I I I remember I was with sally whenever we were at, I think, eddie's and we're Sal, oh, I call him Sally. I remember too, whenever he says like oh, yeah, I'm having a son. I was like oh, and then he was like he doesn't be named after him. I was like Sally Jr, and then he was like yeah, and then he was just like. He was like well, fuck, you say well, just because I call him Sally. And Jesus, what was my point?
Speaker 2:okay, 13 reasons why yeah, and then we were like 13 reason why season two just came out and we're like we should pop this motherfucker on. And then we just cut to the very last episode and just got fucking raped. And then we just yeah, it was crazy bro.
Speaker 1:That movie was like so stupid after the first season because it kind of it went away from the book and then became its own show. But I still binged the fuck out of it because it was dramatic and I love drama.
Speaker 2:You know how I am, yeah I, it reminds me of something like you know, like, was it um, catching a or miss? You know the show with the bitch, the girls, and there's one bitch that dies and and then apparently she, there's a whole organization that's trying to kill them or something. I forgot what they call them Pretty Little Liars. Oh, okay, that show's fucking stupid. It's so dramatized, but I loved it so much. Some gossip girl, shit, no, but it's just like they were getting tracked down, these fucking high school girls. They were getting tracked down and shit, this one teenage girl. She faked her death. Okay, so Pretty Little Liars is a dumb show. It's just way too traumatized and, yeah, I think it's been one right. Thank you for joining us on this episode of the it's what we Do podcast.
