TV Shows That Need Their Own Movies + Movie Review: Joe Bell + Why Scarlett Johansson is Suing Disney + Mike and Kelsey’s Honeymoon Recap

00:00:00
Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome back to movie Mike's Movie podcast, your go to source for all things movies. I'm your host Movie Mike, joined on this episode by my co host and fiance Kelsey. How are you today? I'm your wife? What did I say? See? I'm still now used to it, and we just have an example of how it's still a little bit weird to say, but yes, you are my wife. Now you come on the podcast from time to time and co host the episode with me because I need you apparently. And today what we're talking about is TV shows that I think would make great movies. I've come up with my list, and I'm gonna give you the premise and you're just gonna say if you would watch it or not? All right, sounds good. And then we're also going to review a movie we watched together called Joe Bell in Theaters, which was actually your pick. Yeah, I have some thoughts. Yeah, So we'll get to that review later. Thanks everybody for listening to the podcast. Without any further ado, let's get started. In a world where everyone and their mother has a podcast, one man stands to infiltrate the ears of listeners like never before in a movie podcast. A man with so much movie knowledge, he's basically like a walking audio TV was Glass from the Nashville podcast Networking Movie Movie. All right, so let's talk about some TV shows that I think would make great movies. I think sometimes people start to love a TV show, and I think it was more of a thing in the back in the day of like when's it going to get a movie? When's it going to get a movie? And that was kind of like the quintessential you knew a show made it when it would get its movie. I think now it's kind of changed a little bit to where TV shows can be their entirely different thing. You're never really happy to get that movie satisfaction to get the same kind of like, oh, it's made it. So I was thinking of some of the shows I've liked over my life, like what what I actually want to see a movie get made of, and what I think would actually work. And the first one that came to me was actually kind of top of mind, because after twenty five seasons it has now been canceled. And if you're not familiar with Arthur on PBS, here's a little bit of the theme so which was for me the first theme song I ever knew every single lyric to Oh you still know and I still know sing it all the time. Well, you can learn to work and play. But I think that would right now, at this moment, if that movie came out, it would actually do pretty well. Okay, get on writing that. Okay, I'll write the premise right now. Would you watch that? I know you didn't grow up with Arthur? Did you did? You did? Yes? I loved Arthur. Why don't you like it when I sing the theme song because you just sing it NonStop? So you do remember watching Arthur as a kid Arthur and d w Okay, would you watch Arthur movie seven years old? Probably not? Would you want our future kid to have an Arthur movie to watch? Yes, okay, I think it would be a good movie. You're do you have a favorite episode or something you remember from Arthur that stuck out? I'm not like in the Arthur fan club as you are. I liked it. I had some Arthur books too. Okay. So what was the friend's name? Buster extra? Yes, we went away then he came back. Oh no, I've opened a move on to the next time. Okay, I just think that would be a good one. It was top of mind right now that it got canceled left or twenty five years the next one on my list. I don't think you ever watched this show, but I feel right now that there hasn't been a great comedy in a very long time. Something about how comedies are made now, they're just not that funny anymore. Maybe it's the whole we're so used to, like TikTok gratification of getting a laugh within like fifteen seconds of watching something that I really don't think a great comedy has been as big of a hit than it was maybe like ten years ago. But a TV show that I loved was Malcolm in the Middle, and I think doing something now of revisiting that. I don't think it needs to reboot, but I think it would be funny to get all those original people together, Brian Cranston now being the big star that we know him as. I think that would be a funny movie. I watched episodes you did. Yeah, it wasn't my favorite, but I've I've watched I feel like that's a very underrated show from the two thousand's, as long as it was on, and how many kind of funny episodes and funny things that came out of that show. No one really talks about it anymore, aside from like, oh, it's like a like a thing that you remember Brian Cranston from before he did Breaking Bad. But there was a lot of great moments on that show, and I remember watching it time and time again. I was like, that's a great show. I think it would make a great movie. So would you watch the Malcolm in the Middle movie? Sure? Okay, so about one for two right now. I never said I wouldn't watch the Arthur movie if we had kids, I would. I'm not going to go right now buy a ticket to the Arthur movie. Seven years And I also think that's a problem that people have with things getting rebooted way down the line is like did anybody really want this? Do we need to revisit when you made Nego see Christopher Robin? Why? I'm just saying that's I feel like that's long lines if you want to. I feel like they would make Arthur like a and be like a live ac action like c G I Arthur, Okay, Yeah, I wouldn't like that. I like that's the vibe. I feel like they didn't try for I'd go for the straight on two D Animation another one I have on my list which I know for sure you didn't watch this one, but Lost, Yeah no. I um ended up reading the Wikipedia page for a quick summary of what happened in all eight seasons. I think when it comes to Lost, people either loved it or completely hated it, And I feel like it's kind of a bad rap because Lost was never meant to run as long as it did. Did it come out? It started in two thousand four, the finale aired, Okay, I see, I feel like I just had too much on my on my TV plate. Okay, well, I I remember watching a little bit when it was actually on the air, but the time I really got into it was afterwards when all the episodes went on to Netflix and I binged the entire series, and I feel like it changed my life. There's a lot of that TV show that stuck with me. And what I think people had a problem with is they wanted every single answer, every single mystery solved, and I don't think that show was built like that. They had a writer strike in the middle of it. There was a lot of just going on with that show that it wasn't meant to last. That long that, Yeah, they didn't go back and solve every little mystery of the island. Yeah, that's why people had a problem with it. And there's also kind of a debate on how it ended, what the ending actually means. So what I took from Lost was the overall, big overarching concept of it and the the bond that those people had, the way they were connected, and there's a lot of stories you get out of it that I felt over time of watching it was very impactful to me. I think if you took the entire series, it would get tricky of how what to write the movie about. But I think having get into a concise hour and a half two hours, it would really kind of do that entire franchise justice And I think it would be a really great movie to where they could take the overall mystery of the island and can dent it into one story and you get everything resolved by the end of it. I think it would be more satisfying right now than to go back and try to reboot it, which you've been watching and I think you finished Manifest on Netflix, which I was when you told me the premise of that, I was like, that's kind of a reboot of Lost, and that's kind of up in the air of it's going to get another season. Yeah, and I'm debating on whether it went a little in the third season if it came back up, would watch it obviously, I just I'm in that phase of like I watched I grew up. My mom and I watching TV was our thing. Like that was our like week night thing. I didn't have a ton of friends in high school. Shocking, I know, welcome to the club. I didn't really do much on weeknights or weekend. So I watched TV with my mom. That was like always our thing. And so I watched a lot of TV in high school, not as much in college. Again, didn't have that many friends until later in college, I just studied a lot. And then between college and grad school, when I didn't have school anymore, I would come home from work and watch TV. So I got really back into TV. And then grad school in a long distance relationship, didn't have much time. So now that I'm done with grad school and I just have an eight five and I finished it five and I'm done. Now, I like need more TV to watch because you still have arched in the evenings and I get done, I'm like, soon, what do I do now? And that's how you crushed Manifest. That is how I crushed Manifest. That's also how I read a lot. So would you rather see I know it's still up in the air right now, Manifest, get another season, or they're just like, Hey, we're gonna put out a movie, not a movie. Not a movie, not a movie. Don't do the movie. Okay. Another one I had on my list was Game of Thrones, which I feel a bunch of people kind of in the same way of people hating the finale of Loss, they also hated the ending of Game of Thrones. And I know they're trying to do like spin off series from Game of Thrones, but I also think that whole kind of universe lends itself really well to movies. Essentially, the biggest episodes from that series, we're a movie. They were already an hour now we're plus sometimes, and they probably spent as much on episodes as they did a movie. They do. They're huge battles and they take up as much time as a movie would. The problem I had with Game of Thrones I watched the entire series. There's so many characters in that that I would get confused unless you were like super dialed into that show and like super nerdy about it. It was hard to keep track of like who was doing what? What this meant? Big things that happened to be, Like wait, why is that important? I think if you took some of those characters and instead of giving them spinoff series or origin story, just make a movie. I think that would be so much more entertaining. Right now, I only know one character from Game of Thrones, No, Sophie Turners. I think that's just for me. I would get more satisfaction if they came out and just say, hey, we're putting out some Game of Thrones movies, putting them on HBO Max. I would watch that more. So. I'm not that interested in the spinoff series. I also just think that it's been a one since we can really remember what was going on in that show, so um, that was when I had on my list. Would you watch that? Do I need to have watched a Game of Throwe? No? I think they could make them to where they're completely self contained. They are big, Like, were you ever interested in all in watching that show? Too? Nerdy? Yeah, what's your level on like sci fi? Because do you like to sit something, sit down and watch something completely science fiction and like medieval and not medieval. I'm more like I wouldn't call that sci fi though. When I think sci fi, I think of like the Sci Fi Channel when they have movies about like a tornado that's puts out fire, Like, that's sci fi to me. Game of Thrones isn't. I mean, I know it's sci fi, but it can borderline like weather related sci fi. There we go. I'm a weather nerd. You like disaster movie? That was one of our early kind of bondings of like we both love disaster movies for really no other reason than didn't we watch The Day After Tomorrow? And like one of our first Yeah, I think there was one early weekend where we watched every single disaster movie that we could find The Aftermorrow. Yeah, over Christmas break, we watched some random movie about a weird tornado on on Amazon. We did not watch the whole thing. We got five minutes into it. It was so low budget. It was terrible. Sometimes it takes when you're looking for your disaster film mix fix you gotta find or that might have even been when I got my wisdom teeth out and we had nothing to do besides watch movie and they were just randomly titled movies like Twists, no, not even twists, or like Tornado Lane or something. We also watched um Oh, Dante's Peak. That's a great, great one. Um Volcano. Yes, that's what I was looking for. That is another one. So back to the sci fi. That's more of my lane of sci fi. I don't get too into the like medieval and just kind of like I'm kind of that same way with movies. If I see a movie like even I was watching the New Dune trailer. It's not complete medieval, but it's kind of like it has like a very regal feeling of like the fancy talk and you know, the wardrobe. It's hard for me to kind of get into that. I have to be in a total mindset to want to watch something like that. It's not easily digestible for me. The regal I can get into, like the crown and get into like history type regal. Yeah, that's not really my thing. I can't get into it. Another one I had on my list was Community, and this was one of my favorite shows mainly because of the cast, mainly because of how funny it was, And the whole kind of running joke on this TV show was that it was going to get a certain amount of seasons in a movie. Six seasons in a movie. That was kind of what they said throughout the entire thing, and never really got there, probably around the third season. It kind of fizzled out a little bit, never reached that mark. But I would really like to see all these characters come back and do a movie. From Joe McHale, my favorite, Donald Glover, Alison Bree, There's just so many great people. And then whenever Chevy Chase left the show, I think that's kind of where it's all a little bit of his mind. I'm laughing because I know you said Chevy Chase, but I heard Chubby Chase. I was like, who is that? Another fun fact? Sometimes Mike mumbles around the house and I'm like, what did you just say? I've heard a lot of things but aren't what he said before. It's a common thing with me. I mean, I'm ambo on his podcast sometimes I gotta fix myself and I was like, unseen un but yes, I love community. I think that would really lend itself to a um a great movie. Would you watch that one because I love Joe McHale. I used watched the Soup Great Show. Great Show. I remember like very random clips from that. Um my friends and I still talk about that. I remember one time I think I went with Bobby to the c MT Awards sounds sorry, I know a story here, and Joe McHale was in front of us the entire time, and he is like super tall and also really nice, Like I think he helled door open for us. What celebrity do you know what hold the door open for other people? No one, because now in the age of pandemics, we don't touch doors. True, But yeah, that was a really nice running I had with him. I guess you can always tell. I mean, even I find it weird to hold the door open for people when there are a certain distance away they have to run and then but then if you don't, then it looks like it's hard because you're like, all right there. I always kind of gauge you, like how many footsteps are behind me? Should I start walking a little bit slower as I'm approaching this, Like, what what's my game plan here? If I hold it, do they have to do that little run walk thing nobody wants to do the run walking and go catch a door, but you also don't want to feel a jerk. But Joe McKell held the door open for us, all right. Next on my list, I have a couple of Marvel shows and that don't exist. They already exist, and some of these already have movies, but they lended themselves. I felt like these shows were completely different, and the movies they actually made for these did the characters no justice. So all these Marvel shows that came out and got canceled, where The Punisher, Daredevil, Jessica Jones. There were a few other one a couple other ones that I didn't really get into, but I think these three specifically, I think people love these characters. They were done so well. They were grittier, they were more hardcore, they were a little more violent in real life kind of based. They just canceled the show. Nothing else came of it afterwards. They were never tied into the entire Marvel universe. They're just kind of sitting there. Is like great characters finally had the story down, had this tone that I think a lot of people kind of had and resonated with watching these shows. But then they're just sitting there. So I think if they went and actually took these shows, took the characters, took the storyline, and just continued into a movie, I think those would be fantastic. I think that's kind of where Marvel was missing out a little bit, and they probably don't want to get into that space of putting out like a hardcore kind of rated our movie. I mean, they have Deadpool, but that's really more like it's rated are because it's a comedy and they say bad words and the violins is a little bit more extreme, but they don't really have kind of a Dark Knight equivalent, is what I'm trying to say. I think they could have it here, a rated ar Marble movie, very gritty, they have the characters. I would love to see that. What About You? I would watch that. Also, that was a tongue twister rated ar Marble movie. Rated ar Marble movie, Try that five times fast. No, I would watch those. But anyway, that's kind of what I had on my list. I do have another list that are probably doing another episode of TV shows that were adapted in movies that actually worked, and also TV shows that were adapted into movies that completely failed. So if you were kind of into this topic. Let me know, and I'll do that episode later down the line. Um coming up next, we're gonna give our review on the movie Joe Bell, and then talk about the whole big controversy going on with Scarlett Johansson doing. Disney will explain all that after this, let's get into a movie review now, brand new movie starring Mark Wahlberg called Joe Bell, which is based on a true story. And even though it is based on a true story, I'm still keeping the spoiler free rule on this review because I think both of us didn't really know a whole lot about this new story when it came out, So I think when you're watching it, you're kind of being presented to it at the you know, for the very first time. So we won't really kind of ruin any plot points about the movie. But there's a lot to discuss here. But if you haven't heard about this movie yet, here's just a little bit of the trailer. Jaden knew before he died that you loved him and accepted him, and that's what matters. I never laughed, it was okay, I gotta laugh with that side of the walk across America. I'll talk to anybody who looks about and I told her to take a walk in that around the block, not to New York City. It's lived there someday, remember, so right there in front of me. So in that trailer you do get a little bit of background on the story. It's based on a character and a real life person named Joe Bell, who started this walk to pay tribute to his son Jaden, who was a gay teenager and committed suicide after being bullied. I was like, that's not a spoilers. Yeah, that sounds like a spoiler, but it's not. You literally see that and hear that in that trailer, And we saw this as a preview when we went to go watch Black Widow and you saw that, I was like, I want to see that. And the trailer is pretty emotional when you watch it, and you think of like you just kind of get so many feelings from it of like, oh man, this is gonna be a really kind of hard hitting movie tackling a pretty hard subject. And it is like, I don't really remember hearing about this story. So I felt like I took it all in as we were watching it. But I also made a big mistake this mistake was yours? I asked. Also, we had the theater to ourselves, to ourselves, so at one point I was like, oh, I wonder what year this took place in, and Mike, being the dummy, he is google's the movie and reads again, based on a true story. But if you don't know the story, then you don't know what's going to happen. And I read a spoiler, reads a spoiler, which is like the end of the movie. Didn't tell me, thankfully, But I was like, what did you expect when you googled the movie while we were sitting in the theater. So if you're gonna go watch this, I recommend not googling it, and then we won't give away anything about the ending or anything like that. But that's kind of the line you play when you watch a movie based on a true story, And I think some people had that debate, like can you ruin a movie that was actually that actually happened. I think if it's so big everybody knows the story, yeah, you could probably spoil it. If it's a really big, fresh news story that happened, you're probably not gonna say anything that people don't know. But I think the kind of reason this movie was made was to tell their story and so that more people know about it, more people are aware about it, and it kind of spreads the overall message of what he was trying to do with this walk. So I think that's why this movie is important, that's why it was made. With that said, I come on here and I review movies and critique them. I think there's a little bit to kind of dive into there because the thing you did look add before we watched it was a rotten Tomato score and you didn't want to tell me. I didn't want to know it beforehand. I usually don't like to know. Yeah, I just wondered out of curiosity, which it's a good gauge it is, But I also, I mean, it's a true story and it's very like heartfelt, so I almost I'm just kind of think rotten to me, and it was just like I think it's wrong, kind of being a bunch of I won't say it, but I'll let a holes leave myself there. I guess they're critiquing more so like the delivery of the story and that story itself. But you read you see a lower score and you're like, it's kind of Douche and it's a very low score. And I kind of feel that same way. And I was kind of dissecting what I was going to say about this and preparing my notes of the review for this movie, and looking at the movie and the questions I had while watching it. I can see some of the disparities and the things they pointed out, but also how low a score they got, Like it just didn't see even like really to me, did you watch the same movie? So what I will say about it and the way the movie was delivered, it did kind of go back and forth between present day and the past to where you're with Mark Wahlberg playing this character Joe Bill on the walk, but you're also flashing back to before when his son Jaden was still alive. Were you ever confused like between the back and forth? No, I thought that worked for the story. I think it would have been weird if it was just told in chronological order because so much of his walk was influenced by what happened, and so much of his walk is n't reflecting on that. I mean, he's walking across the US like just a lot of solo time, you're gonna kind of reflect on your life and the reason why you're walking. So I wasn't confused. I thought it was well done. I thought that part too, like I got it. They were able to go back and forth. I understood it. I think the other thing people kind of we're grasping is when he is on the walk, Jaden is not really alive, but he's there. So I think maybe you have kind of like a in between of like, wait, what's going on at this point? Did you ever get that at all? The whole movie is about his son dying. You know, he's just like imagining. There's been plenty of other movies where somebody like imagine someone someone who's passed, like as a figment of their imagination. I don't feel like that was not confusing. If someone of them Rotten Tomatoes, is that confused after all the movies they've ever seen. I did not think it was that confusing. And the other thing, the only thing I was thinking about afterward was how powerful it was able to kind of share his story and explain the overall meaning of what happened. Did you feel telling? I mean, the movie is called Joe Bell, but it's it's reflecting more on the story of Jaden. Do you feel it would have been more powerful told from Jaden's perspective, No, because that takes away from the story, like it was Jaden's life that influenced his dad, who then went on to influence other people. Yes, Okay, I think for me, the thing I wanted a little bit more in the movie was kind of what Jaden was going through, and I think that was really the most emotional kind of impact of a moment to me, to the point to where I think I got a little bit emotional on the virgin here, and that's I think that's the closest I've gotten to crying and not crying in a movie, to where I already knew it going into it that it was gonna be sad and that I was going to feel something. I don't think it lends itself for me to cry, because probably because from the trailer already knew what was going to happen to him. But it's pretty emotional when it actually happens. And then I think for me, I kind of wanted to know a little bit more of like how it affected him. I think that was the best part of the movie. And then when it kind of focuses more on his dad and his walk. I think they could have fleshed out the characters a little bit more there. That's the only part that I was like, I wanted a little bit more. And and that's and also it's a pretty quick movie. I feel like that would have been a different movie though. That would have been that wasn't the purpose of Joe Bell. Yeah, I agree. I think this movie could have been told in two different perspectives. And finding the logic in those low scores. I think that's the dumb reason that people ran it so low. And it's also like, I feel like Mark Wahlberg himself, him taking on an emotional role like this a little bit more of a serious role, he kind of got grilled of, like, oh can he actually do it? I thought he did great. Mark Wahburk has done plenty of serious roles. Yeah, I love Mark Wahlberg, do too. He's done Shooter, he did the one about Boston Patriots Day, about the Boston marathon, Haston, plenty of serious roles. I feel like, Yeah, I like Mark Wahlberg. I agree to. I think he's one of the actors that I will watch every single movie. Is in even the more comedic ones. Also love Connie Britton. Yes, I love Connie Britton. So the only other issue I had with this, and it's not even that big of a deal. It was a pretty quick movie. You were excited about that going into it. I was like, it's only I did love that part about it. There was another issue I had with the movie, but I'll leave it there for now. I think it's still I don't think it's a movie you need to rush to the theater to watch right now. So that's where I'm kind of about with this movie. I think it's a great movie that everybody should probably watch and learn about this story, maybe not rushed to the theater, watch it later down the line. So if you had to write this movie, what would you give it? I would give it four out of five tenths, four out five tenths. I'll go a little bit under than you and give it three point five out of five pairs of walking shoes. I think it's an emotional movie, a really great story that I wasn't aware of and learned a lot about. And then also I thought the cast is really good, especially with that last little cameo with Gary Sinise. Gary sin was great yeah, like I see it actor like Gary Sinise, and you realize, man, there's some really great actors out there who can just come on screen and kind of demand a scene. You hang on every word. I think he's one of the very few actors that had such a quick cameo like that that I was like, man, that movie really kind of was made by his little part in the movie. So I'd say go watch it maybe when it's out on Blu Ray or later on the streaming service, but not necessarily when you got to spend the ticket price on right now. So that is our review of Joe Bell. All right, we'll wrap it up here with the biggest thing in movie needs right now that I've done a lot of research in both sides of this argument, and if you haven't seen the story, is that Scarlett Johansson is suing Disney. Basically, I'll lay it down like this. She is saying they had a breach of contract whenever they put Black Widow on Disney Plus, and her initial contract was saying that however much that movie made at the box office, she would get a percentage of, and you would make more based on how many tickets were sold and how successful the movie is, and then when it was announced that it was also going to go on to Disney Plus for thirty bucks for people to watch at home, she was left out of that deal. She tried to contact them to renegotiate and be like, hey, I gotta get some money out of this too, Like if it doesn't reach the box office numbers because people are taking the option to watch it at home, that kind of affects how much money I'm going to make out of this. And that came out and then Disney kind of replied of saying like whoa and the wake at the pandemic, like this is how things are going. They didn't say anything about her trying to renegotiate or contacting them about that, and they're kind of just in this battle now of like what's going to happen And this isn't really the first time something like this has happened. Whenever A Quiet Place Too was initially supposed to come out and it was delayed a year, and then it came out that it was going to be released in theaters but also on Paramount Plus. Forty five days later, John because in Sky and Emily Blunt had the same kind of argument of saying, hey, you're limiting our window here of being able to make money, we should kind of renegotiate this too. That never went to a lawsuit and John Krasinski ended up signing like a big deal with them later of putting out more movies with them. But I think we're going to see more things like this as studios kind of tell us and decide where their movies are gonna go, and it's them adapting to Okay, we can put it in theaters, but we also have this streaming service just sitting here that we're gonna put this big production on and us make the money off of it, And in turn, I feel like, yeah, they are kind of taking some of the actor's money in this sense. So I think a lot of things have to change and be adapted to also include when a movie is going to be released on streaming in that same kind of theatrical window. Otherwise you're gonna see big actors like Scarlett Johansson, maybe even like The Rock Now come back and be like, oh, we gotta renegotiate this. If I'm being pro missed the amount from the box office, then we have to factor in streaming a little bit too. So if I had to guess how this lawsuit is going to get settled out, I think they may settle with her and be like, hey, yeah, we didn't cut you in on this. We made sixty million off Disney plus here's a portion of that, or here's the initial amount you thought would have been made, because it was crazy that that movie made so much the opening weekend and next weekend dropped like any percent in sales, and I know a lot of people that opted to watch it at home. So I think it does kind of factor in there of like what will they do? So any thoughts on how that should be handled or do you feel like it's just rich people arguing over money? No, I don't think it's rich people arguing over money. I think that it is like it's kind of like when Taylor Swift on up against like Spotify about being paid. I think it's a new landscape that they didn't account for. Um, I don't think anyone would have accounted for the before, Like there was no option ever like a thinking of seeing like a big movie like that in your home, Like it was always theaters and releases. So I think I think they weren't prepared for that and maybe they just kind of thought that nobody would be any wiser to it and thought they could get away with it. Um because I don't I said this the other day. I don't feel like people like working in those roles or maybe the most morally sound. Sorry if anyone listening to this podcast works, But I think she deserves the money Ace Cardjio what she deserved. I go back and forth about whether I think like actors are overpaid, but I also think about like how much time and effort they put into it, and do I think there may be overpaid a little bit. Probably pay twenty million for that role a lot of money. So I feel like I read some of the comments from people are like, oh, when she made twenty million already, Like why is she fighting over this? But I don't even think it's a matter of the number. I think it's a matter of principle, And I wouldn't deny anybody at their job of like, oh, you already make this amount and should really be fine for that, like it's your work, like especially something to that level that she has reached. I think this will also set a precedent if she is able to win that you can't do this to people well, And I don't even think it's a matter of her just being like I want more money. It's a matter of being like, this is what we agreed on, and you're not holding up your end of the bargain, especially if it was true that they reached out to them afterwards and they said nothing. Yeah, it's a it's a matter of contract. It goes back to mind the one business law class I took in college. They're breaching a contract, the breaching of contracts. So that's the news and the story. I'm kind of following along with a lot right now and seeing what happens with that. I am on her side. I think they should pair the money she deserves it. I think down the line they should be able to negotiate for if. I think with Disney, especially since they're the one charging the thirty bucks to watch on their servers, they definitely need to give a kick back to anybody who has that in their contract that it's tied to ticket sales. They should get some of the streaming as well. I also think for other directors and everybody who works on movies, that needs to be something that they get paid for, Like if their movie is kind of promise the big theatrical release and putting all this money into making ticket sales be as high as possible in the state of the world we're in right now, then they need to make sure that they hold up to the end of the bargain as well and not just looking out for their own streaming service. So that's how I feel about that. Will follow along and update you here on the podcast when we see more about that, and that'll do it for this week. But before we hop out of here, every single week I give a shout out to one of you guys who send me an email movie Mike d at gmail dot com, tweet me at Mike Destro, send me a d M on Instagram, or also my Facebook page Facebook dot com slash Mike Distro, and I also like to shout out people who leave reviews over on Apple podcast. So anytime you say tweet me or reminds me of my grandpa who need time, we like say bye to him, He's like, tweet me later when you get home and he means text to tweet me later, He's like, He's like, send me a tweet, like follow me on tweeters. I'm like people I don't think or he'll be like when he means FaceTime, he's like face tweet us later and that doesn't doesn't exist, snap book, You're close. It just makes me laugh. Well anyway, This is a review that was left on the movie Mike page on Apple Podcast. It's a five star review, five star review, and it says, and it's from MacBook A T two says new listeners so fun and helps me branch out to watch different movies. I love hearing Kelsey's opinions. She brings a good balance. I like the movie questions, but also enjoy the personal questions about you both so good and informative. Appreciate that MacBook at two. If you write a review over there, leave those five stars, it really helps out the podcast. I also did see right next to that, though, was a one star review. What they say and it is from al Laandra with three l's and it said not enough of a movie X one star rating this low because every time I listen, I can tell you haven't done enough research on what you're talking about. Okay, first of all, rude and also I'm not true, like I don't feel the need to defend myself that I don't do enough research for this podcast. I literally have a whole page, and I can promise he doesn't have research because it's like once he finishes one job and then I'm like, hey, come hang out with me, and he's like doing podcast research. I'm like, so, you know, maybe maybe they were just having a bad day. But I don't know. I just don't feel the need to go like the review is the one the one star gets me because I have we this podcast has a good amount of five star reviews, and that one little one star dropped it from having that overall five to like a four point nine, Like a one really hurts you. I feel for businesses that get bad yell reviews like that really changes a lot. Yeah, And I also feel like if you, I don't know, like send an email with some constructive criticism, don't just like be like, hey, your podcast, Yeah, before you leave a one star review, send me an email movie my d email dot com and hit that feedback there. Also, maybe I'm just defensive because I'm your wife, But they mentioned like every time they listen, if you didn't like it the first time, you don't have to listen again. That's the beauty of podcasts is the beauty of that you can hit click out of it. Really, there's plenty of podcasts that I've listened to and I'm just like, oh, not for me. I don't go like hate on them. I don't feel like that's like shouting an insult at a restaurant after you leave it like it sucked. Yeah, Or it's like when you see people that like have to Like when celebrities put on their Instagram so somebody messages them, They're like, I'm on following you. It's just follow We'll just do it anyways. One star reviews rude, So if you haven't left it a review there on Apple Podcast, leave us some nice pods to balance out that one star. We also mentioning the comment about talking about our personal lives. We did just come back from our honeymoon. We went to Scottsdale, Arizona and had a really great time. And I think people ask why we picked Scottsdale, Arizona, and even I was trying to remember exactly why. But I think a lot of it is that we wanted to go away and be somewhere we could completely turned our brains off, also not have a whole lot of plans. We didn't want to have a lot of activities. They're like, all right, we're gonna go do this, good, go do that. We basically wanted to go and sit out, buy a pool, and just kind of unwind and enjoy being married for the first time. We also just didn't. We didn't have enough time or I didn't have enough time for us to go somewhere to like a beat fore week. I just started a new job in May, and I have p t O, but I've already used some for the wedding, and like, the way our PTO works at my job is it's not like a calendar year. It starts in July through the next year, and so that I had to account for, like if we take any trips at the beginning of next summer, like Christmas break, and had a lot of big life changes in the way. Yeah, so we just didn't. I didn't have the PTO to be able to be like, let's go somewhere for a week. So we did um Saturday morning to Wednesday, came back on Wednesday evening, and it was we could have stayed for longer. It was a bat That was why we picked somewhere close enough in the US, like one terribly long flight. We just got the most got the most bang for our buck there. And I had been to Phoenix before for a work trip stated a resort there, and I was like, this is very relaxing. I thought we would go and just be there and hang out and enjoy it. The first couple of days it did rain, so we walked a half marathon. And if you think we did stuff sudden, we did a lot. And then later in the week we were able just to do our plan of just hanging by the pool and relax and read. And I think that was kind of the most enjoyable part for me, aside from just how beautiful Arizona is. It was beautiful. The resort we started out was so nice. Yes, it was what do you what is it? Camel Back J W. Marriott camel Back in It was amazing. The views were stunning. The pool area was so nice. It's five star, like it truly is a five star hotel, but like they serve you at the pool. Like the first day we got there and we tried to get a drink and we like couldn't figure out where the restaurant. We looked like a bunch of we lived like idiots because we're just like wandering around and the guy comes out and I'm like, um, where's the bar And It's like, oh, we come to you and we serve you, And I was like what So they do They literally walk around like every like five to ten minutes, like you're good, what do you need? And I have this weird thing of like I don't like being served or like brought things. I feel kind of guilty because they're like, who am I like you bring? Like I don't know. That felt weird to me, but I think that part at the end of it, they were very nice. I think that helped a lot. That they were just so friendly and like oh yeah, like no problem. They felt like our friends thinking out to had had some great margarita's. It's really great French fries by the pool. That was my dream. I've loved to order French fries everywhere we go, like I think every hotel we've stayed out lately, I just get like I do. They were great fries. Um yeah, it was just nice. We would pick up dinner and eat it on our patio, like it was exactly what we wanted. I could have left the clothes I brought at home, my makeup, my hair straightener, like I just adopted full on vacation mode. Like there was a Starbucks on the property, which again we've talked about how we like Starbucks. Nobody hate on us. We're drinking Starbucks now, actually are. But you could walk to it, like we would get up in the morning and just go walk and get coffee and then walk around the property and like, fine little areas to sit. I want to go back and before somebody comes at us later. Like we did go to actual like local restaurants, and we did and we didn't like one of them. But you won't see me right over, that's true. But we did go. The food there is amazing. Food is amazing. The views. I mean, I just love driving around. Really. Yeah. We got a rental car with the sunroof. I was so excited. You got to pick the rental car and you were like, what would the sunroof? It was like a little because every time we've gotten a rental car in the past year, for various reasons, they never have a sunroof. And so I saw one and I was like, oh, we have to have that one because it was beautiful. We opened at the sunroof, windows down. It's great. So what would you write her honeymoon ten out of ten the tin scale. I also give it a ten a tin and I brought a cool hat back as a souvenir. I really didn't have room for Mando. But if you want to see pictures, we haven't seen them on my Instagram at Mike Destro. Also made like a little video on my TikTok also at Mike Destro. Great video. You can go see all that over there. And thanks to everybody for listening this week. We will talk to you again next week on the podcast and until then, later, don't forget those five star reviews. Five star reviews
