00:00:00
Speaker 1: Welcome back to Movie mis Movie Podcast. I am a movie Mike on Twitter and Instagram at Mike d stro got a very special episode for you guys this week because I am joined by my girlfriend and she will be reviewing some of her favorite movies, the worst movie we ever saw together, and she also has a review of a brand new movie that just came out on Netflix this past weekend called All the Bright Places, which is currently in the top ten on Netflix. So we'll do all that with her, which, if you don't know kind of my story, I started dating maybe four or five years ago after I lost like a hundred pounds and I was out there for a good amount of time. And about two years ago I met my girlfriend now on bumble and we've been dating long distance for the entire time I met her. She was living in Austin. I'm living here in Nashville, and we've been making your work and I've taken her with me to a lot of the movies I've reviewed on this podcast. She loves movies, maybe not as much as I do, but she likes going to the movie theater and I will pretty much drag her to all the things I go see, which we have a lot of similar tastes in that, so it's not like I'm just drag her two movies for the sake of dragon your two movies. There's some things that maybe she wouldn't go watch otherwise, But even when we met, I think that was kind of a thing that drew me to her, is that she was into movies as much as I was, especially like superhero movies, which are probably my favorite. So we'll get into the things that kind of we watched since we've been together, so it's kind of like our relationship told through movies is what we'll get into. And then a movie that she wanted to watch over the weekend which I didn't know, just came out on Netflix, and we'll review that movie, which is actually pretty good. So I'll also get into my review of The Invisible Man, which just came out on Friday, with Elizabeth Moss. It's a new like horror suspense movie where she's trying to convince people that her ex is stalking her and he has found a way to turn himself invisible, which I that was a great plot, and I'll explain why it was actually ended up being a pretty good movie, a lot better than the hollow Man Interpretation from like two thousand and As always, if you don't mind, if you're listening on Apple podcast, if you want to go down there, leave a five star rating and write a quick review, because that helps other people who haven't heard of me. They don't know I work on the Bobby Bones Show. They don't know I'm a producer on the Bobby Cast, and they find this podcast just by searching on there because you leave a review. It kind of helped me get up there hiring the category, which I've seen some people who have no idea who I am mentioned that their listener of the podcast now, which I think is cool and it helps out when you guys do that. And if you're just listening on I Heart Radio or every other platform, just hit that follow button so you get brand new episodes every single Monday, because I like it when you guys come hang out with me, all right, or if you just know somebody who's in the movies and be like, hey, check out this podcast. I think you'll learn some stuff from it. I think you'll enjoy. That is all you really have to do too, So all right, with all that said, I got a great episode for you guys this week and without 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 walking on him. David, Who's class from the Nashville podcast Networking movie movie Podcast. I am joined now by my girlfriend. Hello Kelsey. Hello, you've never done a podcast before. I have not, and I wanted to bring you on on this episode because I pretty much drag you to everything I go see pretty much. But I think early in our relationship, um, movies are kind of a big deal. We messaged pretty early on about movies we did. We bonded over some shared love of disaster films. So for those listening the way we met, it's been about two years now. We met on Bumble, which on Bumble you had to message me first after we matched. Why did you swipe right on me being put on the spot here and let's say loaded question. I was not prepared for that one. Um. So I was a listener of the show, so I knew things about you. I knew that you were in Austin frequently I thought we had things in common. I was trying to date more. I was like, you know, I'm gonna swipe right, maybe we'll go on to date, we'll both get more dating experience. And here we are two years later, still going on dates. But even like earlier, I remember messaging you about we talked about what like Doctor Strange at the time I think was out movies, and then we've gone to see a lot of movies together since. So I wanted to bring you on to talk about your favorite three movies, which I kind of think paint a picture of our relationship through movies in a way. Yes, and I will mention that you have only seen one out of my favorite three, and I forced you to watch the other. So I've seen all these. Um, you'll make your list, and then I'll give my opinions on after I saw them. Okay, So starting first at number three. Number three would be The Family Stone, which some people would call it a Christmas movie. I watch it all year round. It's also polarizing because a lot of people don't like Sarah Jessica Parker's character in the movie, because she was kind of annoying. I personally love it. My mom and I watch it every year every Christmas. Um It's just one of my favorite movies. It's very like indicative of the complicated family dynamics and just like how the holidays bring that out, and I just love it. So without spoiling the movie overall, what is it about? So it is about a family. All of the siblings come home for Christmas, and one of them brings his new girlfriend home, who Sarah Jessica Parker, And it's just about the drama that ensues from him bringing her home for the first time. Not only and I've never seen this movie. I've never really heard about it, and I didn't really I didn't know it was gonna be like a straight of Christmas movie, which I think. I don't think it's a straight up Christmas movie. It happens around Christmas time, but there's no Santa Claus. There's not Santa Claus. But yes, it has centered around Christmas. And I like Sarah Terry Jessica Parker. Like I've seen every episode of Sex in the City, and not only that, I've seen the first and the second movie, so I like her in it. I think her character is a little bit I think he's kind of typecast. Sometimes she is very like type A high maintenance. So, um, what would you give the family stone five out of five Christmas Trees? And it's your favorite because blank, it's probably just tradition. My mom and I've watched it every year for the past twelve years. It's like what we look forward to, Like November first rolled around, my mom puts up the Christmas tree at home. I go home, We drink a glass of wine. We watched the movie, and it's just kind of become our thing over the years. I liked it. I think I would give it like three and a half out of five. That's fair. I don't think it's exactly a movie for guys like me. Probably not, But I found it enjoyable and I'd watch it again. I think it's a good traditional movie to watch. Good to know you'll be watching it every christ I watch it again, all right? Number two in your list, Twister, Okay. I think this is where like we kind of had like a point like, oh my gosh, I found somebody else who likes disaster movies as much as I do. A very strange movie for someone to put, probably in the top three, but I love disaster movies. I'm scared of natural disasters, terrified of them. I get freaked out when there's tornado warnings. Love watching them on a movie. And um for I'll explain this one just because it's one of my favorite movies too. But it's Bill Paxton and he pretty much used to run with this crew of like storm chasers. He goes the way to be like a big time meteorologists or whether manage. They all give him crap about and it's him coming back to essentially join their gang for a bit because he's trying to get Joe in the movie to find the divorce papers. Very dramatic. Um But I don't know why I love that movie so much, Like me and my brother would watch it all the time, and it was like a movie. We just quote it all the time, and it's really not a movie people like consider to be their favorite movie, but there's just something about it, Like any time it's on TV or any time I see it on and it pops up, like it's not like Netflix or anything right now, but when it does pop up somewhere, I watch it and that's a movie like we watched pretty early on in our relationship. That was the first movie watch and you do quote the movie. You quoted the entire thing I could. I could quote that movie from start to finish. And I think so much though that, Like in my normal life, I use quotes from that movie just all the time, like stuff that doesn't even make sense out of a context, even like the part where they're they go and they all get coffee and they put it on off of the cup on top of the car, and I'm like, oh, yeah, that's that scene from Twister when he drives off with it. Like that stuff was just stuck in my head for some reason. And I love that movie. What would you rate that well? I feel like I probably shouldn't have given my number three movie five out of five. I would I would give this some five out of five twisters. Twisters. I think it's a solid four point five out of five, just because first of all, a R I p Bill Paxton. I think he's great in it. Um, you even have like people who are like, um, Philip smore Hoffman is in it. He plays just a random character in it, and he goes on to be a huge actor. Um, I just love I've give it five out of five Twisters. I think it's a movie that you can watch any single time. It's not hard to follow. It's just a movie about them chasing twisters. But it's done well because you can do the disaster movies and they'd be pretty bad. We have watched some Battle, we watched some really all of the disaster films together. Yeah. I think it was it last Christmas when we just binged every single disaster movie and we tried like a low budget Amazon disaster movie. I think that's me through the line. That was like a pretty much a rip off Twister, but the Twister looked terrible. Spit out fire. It did out fire, all right. So that is your number two movie. Moving on to number one, Number one, hands down Bridesmaids. And that was a movie. I mean that came out almost ten years ago now and I had never seen and you were shocking to me. Surprised to you that I because, I mean I've seen a lot of movies and especially comedy stuff. But for some reason, I think around that time that movie came out, I was burnt out on the way they were making comedies. I felt like they were just kind of turning out like, oh, here's a movie, like they were all trying to be The Hangover at that point, because The Hangover came out in two thousand nine, and I felt like everything after that was just like, Okay, let's do the female Hangover. Let's do Hangover but in a circus setting or something like that. And with just some reason when that movie came out, I was like, I'm tired of seeing this movie plot kind of regurgitated. So even though I like Kristin Wig, I just never saw it. And now how you can quote Twister, I can quote Ridesmaids beginning to finish. I think that's why I ended up having to watch it, because you would quote it all the time and I wouldn't get it, and you'd real like, Okay, you have to watch this movie now. Um, but did you guys see that in theaters? Yes? I did, So how did that movie kind of affect you when you saw it? I just thought it was hilarious because I had seen The Hangover and I thought that was funny. But there was just something about Bridesmaids and just the way they depicted like the whole process of wedding planning and just the drama that it ensues from that as well, and just I thought it was hilarious, and I just think that Christin Wigg and Mere Rudolph are a dream team. Melissa McCarthy steals the show in that movie. She is hilarious. She was really good in that. And that's like early on her too. That was like post Gilmore Girls, but like early in her getting into films, I forgot you was a Guilmore He was in all seven seasons of Gilmore Girls. What's your favorite scene at the entire movie? Oh, that's a tough one. There's a really funny scene when and I'm not really spoiling anything, they have a bridal shower for my Rudolph's character and the party favor is puppies, and later in the movie you discover that Melissa McCarthy has stolen like nine of them, and she just pulls up next to Christa Wigg's character in this van and she's like pointing at all of the puppies and there's just nine small puppies in her front seat. Like when I when I thought we took us a minute to finish that movie. Here we have watched it in two parts, which is probably not the best idea, which I think I would probably want to go back and watch it all the way through again. But it's really funny and it holds up. It does. I remember I took that movie with me to my college orientation and everyone like went out the first night and I got a bunch of people to stay in and we watched Bridesmaids, and my best friend and I bonded over that, and I was like, this is how I know we're gonna be friends forever. What would you feel like if they came out and said they were going to make a Bridesmaids too? How do you feel about sequels? I don't think it would hold up for that. I just think the magic was too good in the first one, and I think if they tried to do anything else, it wouldn't be as funny, because I don't think they expected it to be as big of a hit as it was. I think it was just kind of like you said, like, Okay, the Hangover was funny, We're gonna do a female comedy. I don't think they expected it to take off in the way that it did, and kind of what they did with the Hangovers, they just ended up doing the same movie over and over, and each one kind of got worse and worse. I did get worse. Um, but that's your what do you give it? Five out of five? Five out of five puppies? Five out of five puppies. I think I give it um four and a half out of five pink Lemonades, classic classic. Okay, So what we're gonna do next is we're gonna talk about the movie I Drug You to See that you ended up hating. It's terrible, and then we'll also do a new movie review of something we watched over the weekend on Netflix. It's brand new out which we didn't expect to be as good as it was. Pretty emotional, very emotional. So we'll do those both two things after this. Okay, we're back here. So the movie I Drug You to See that you ended up not liking, and it was a movie that I can usually tell how good a movie is gonna be just on the trailer. And when I saw the trailer for this, I was like, that looks good. It hits me kind of in the fields. It kind of reminds me of my childhood, and I think that's going to be a pretty well done movie because Disney rarely does a bad movie. And we're talking about Christopher Robin, which takes place with the older Christopher Robin and Winnie the Pooh coming back into it, Like, Okay, say, looking back on this now, I can maybe see the fall in this and you were so excited. I was so excited to see this movie because that just that's that's trailer when he's like, oh and he meets Winnie the Pooh and he's talking to him, and I was like, that's kind of emotional just because he's older. We need the Pooh still there. I kind of wanted it to be more emotional and just more like a better story. But we watched it wasn't as good as we thought it was not. It was. It was so bad that the lady next to me in the theater took out her phone during the movie and scrolled through every photo album that she had on her phone. And I'm not to lie, looking at her photos over her shoulder was also more interesting to me than watching the film. When did the movie lose you? When it started? Really I felt like that maybe the first I was not excited going into it, okay, but I felt like maybe the first twenty thirty minutes, they're so we're okay, no nothing, no, I still like that like the first thirty minutes of it, when you see Christopher rob and you find that his kind of a sad backstory, that he's working too much, he's kind of not involved in his family's life. He has a mental breakdown, and he kind of thinks that Winnie the Pooh is the figment of his imagineation amation again, and that was kind of cool to see. I think the c G I was a little weird on Winnie the Pooh. They didn't really have him like cuddly looking um the whole plotline with e Or. He just kind of seems like a sad, depressed guy who even tries to kill himself in the movie. And then I think the problem I had with it was just Winnie the Pooh just seemed kind of like a drunk friend in the movie, like what do you every comes to their house for the first time, He's like stumbling around the kitchen trying to find honey, and he's like, Okay, he's just a drunken pooh beard at this point. But then it pretty much lost me. Maybe the last like the third act in the movie, when they're just kind of like chasing around and figuring out things. I don't really felt like Christopher Robin never had like a like he was gonna go back and change his life out. They said, it was like, Okay, that's it, this movie is over. It was pretty flat. And once again keep in mind, this is the first movie we saw in theaters together, and you just raved by your love of movies, and this is the first thing that you dragged me to see. You've redeemed yourself over the years. But that was not a strong start. Like like I said earlier, I take you to see a bunch of things that maybe you wouldn't go see otherwise. Um, this was probably not the best one and not a good indicator of the other good things to see because you won't watch scary movies. And a review I'm going to do later in this episode is for The Invisible Man, and you wouldn't go watch that. I will not watch scary movies. I think the scariest thing we've watched together is bird Box, which that took a good convincing to get you to see. You end up, it was good. I just don't do the suspense. It just freaks me out. Um. And then I think something like maybe Uncut Gems, you probably wouldn't have gone to see probably not or at astra probably wouldn't have gone to see that. What about nineteen seventeen, I would have gone to see that one. Okay, And you like all those right I did. We have overall similar taste in movies, just not scary movies. I'll seem just about anything else. And then the movie we just watch on Netflix, What did you think about it? I thought it was so good. I had actually downloaded it to watch on the plane on my flight here and ended up watching something else, and so I was like, oh, let's check this out. It was so emotional. I was not expecting that. So it's called All the Bright Places and it's currently at number seven in the top ten on Netflix. And Netflix now they take the ten biggest movies and TV shows and they kind of put them in the top ten and they just came out on Friday, and it's up at number seven right now. A lot more emotional that thought it was going to be. And they kind of give a warning at the beginning of the of the movie, even before you go into it, that it's going to be it's tvm A that the rating is. But it's um L Fanning who plays Violet in the movie Justice Smith who plays Finch, who was into Detective Pikachu, um, Jurassic World, and I think he was in that show The Get Down that was on Netflix for a bit. And then you have Luke Wilson, which I think this is a pretty big movie for Netflix as far as like the cast, Like those are all actors doing normal like blockbustern movies right now, and I think it's kind of cool for them to have like a bigger movie like this with actual like a list act well maybe not a list all all the way around, but I think that's pretty good for them as far as having like this kind of caliber of movies. How do you feel about it? I loved it. Um. Just reading the description of it, I was like, oh, this sounds good. I think I would enjoy this. But then watching it, you just get so drawn into the characters. And I thought l Fanning was awesome and and um, I think that she is one of those actors that like she's done child acting stuff and now we're getting to see her in more mature roles, which I think is really cool. Um. I just thought it was based on a young adult novel I've never heard of it kind of makes me want to go back and read the book now. But I just thought it was really well done. I thought I thought it looked really good, Like I think for movies now for me, I kind of like watch them with like a like a visual eye. And I think the cinematography this was cool. The colors on it looked really cool, like all the stuff where they're like driving out into the country. It had kind of a cool feel to it. And I thought the story was really good, Like it starts pretty emotional with the way they meet and then throughout the movie kind of learning more about their both their characters. I was like, I didn't end up crying at the end, but I did get a little tiriod we won't ruin the ending, but I cheered up a little. It's emotional, and I think it's kind of you're more towards like teens and stuff because it is based on that young adult novel. But I think even for adults it's a good movie to watch. Yeah, I don't feel like there was anything that was exclude several like only teenagers would like this. I feel like a lot of the overarching themes like anyone could appreciate, um what do you rate this movie? I would give this four and a half out of five Sticky notes. Sticky notes I gave it. I gave it four out five rocks, which I think is pretty solid for it. I think it's doing pretty good. Um. I do kind of like that Netflix does the top ten now. I don't know how much that is actually based on how much people are watching is what they say. But Netflix never puts out their numbers of like how many times something is streamed or watched. I don't know if they're just kind of using this as another way of, like, uh, promoting what's out right now, and didn't they want to say that like Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston movie did really well. They said it was like their most stream movie, which I don't know how accurate that is. I don't know if they're just making this like a top ten, like oh it is there are top ten shows we are promoting right now, or it's actually what people are clicking on the most. Also, I don't know if it's like if they're just clicking on it or actually watching the whole thing to get into that top ten. But I that's kind of cool just to go and see like what other people are watching, and it kind of gives me like a better idea what I go on because to go on Netflix to watch because sometimes you go out there, I don't know what I want to watch. I don't know what's good. I don't even know what's new. But I think having that top ten kind of gives at least of like, Okay, this is at least shows people are talking about, maybe something worth watching. I typically spend more time scrolling than I do actually watching something because I'm very indecisive. So I was surprised that I even found something to watch from him a little behind the curve. I think the last thing they put out that I watched right away was the Taylor Swift documentary Would you like I did? I like that too. I still have that song steck of my head. Okay, anything else you want to say, I don't think. So this was fun. Thanks for having me on, putting me in the hot seat. I guess you have nothing to promote. Your instagram is private. My instagram is private. You want to just promote a relationship, yes, promote our relationship? Yet ship this ship to this all right? That has been my girlfriend? All right? Get again? Into my review now of The Invisible Man starting to Sabeth Moss. You would know from The Handmaid's Tale. She was also in Madman, and now she's starring in this new horror suspense thriller that from the trailer alone looks like it's going to be pretty good. So I went into it kind of having the medium or so expectations because it's hard to put out a good horror movie and even harder to do like suspense just right. So it's not the first time this plot has been done. You may be seen it before and the Thousand movies with Kevin Bacon hollow Man. Those are both based on a novel by H. G. Wells and has had several different adaptations over the years, but this is the brand new one. Some pretty interesting things about who directed this that I didn't know that actually has a pretty cool tie in, and I'll get into my review next, but here's just a little bit of The Invisible Man. He was so ill pass completely in control of everything. He said that wherever I went he would find me, walk right up to me, and I wouldn't be able as a sand Okay, someone sitting in that check. So, like I said, this movie is based on a story by H. G. Wells, which is written way back in the day and has been done kind of over time. The probably the most popular one is Hollow Man starring Kevin Bacon, which is essentially the same premise, except they're all scientists in a lab and they tested out this technology on Kevin Bacon, and then he's helping him with the experiment and then in the end he just kind of turns on them. Where this is different. It's a guy who's pretty much a really rich scientists who focuses on security stuff and he ends up creating this suit that essentially enables him to become invisible. And he is dating Elizabeth Moss, who's really abusive towards and she finds a way to leave him, and then she finds out that he kills himself, but is trying to convince other people that he had just faked the whole thing and is in turn haunting him with this suit. So that's kind of where this movie takes place. That's the plot without really ruining anything, and then it escalates from there. But the movie was directed by Lee Wannell, who is also an actor. He's been in things like Saw and Insidious, which he not only started, but he also wrote those movies which were directed by James Wan, and they've kind of had a relationship over the years where he takes his screenwriting turns him into movies and he sometimes starts in him too, But this is one that he directed in wrote the screenplay for, and he has a pretty good grasp on horror and suspense. So from that alone, I didn't know that about him, like he was actually in saw one of the guys in the room at the very beginning of the movie. And I think this movie came at a really good time, coming out at the end of February, which is a time which I think there are a bunch of sleeper kind of horror suspense movies come out because the time where there's not a whole lot of stuff in theaters. A lot of it's like, okay, bigger action movies and maybe a comedy here and there, but there's always one solid horror suspense movie that comes out around this time, and I think this one is it because it's done really well with a plot that I think maybe you could turn cheesy really quick, and I don't think I ever felt that in the movie, so I think Elizabeth Moss's performance and it is probably what carries the entire movie, because she's so believable and she's able to get this really dramatic, kind of powerful force behind her in a role that really kind of brings you into the story, because she's pretty much throughout the entire movie trying to convince other people that these crazy things happening to her are in fact committed by the guy who's still alive. So she's saying that he fagged his own death, and she's trying to convince people that she's not doing these crazy, heinous things that end up happening in the movie. So overall, I think the movie is pretty violent throughout. It's not really scary as far as you're gonna be watching this and have nightmares about it. But I think the way it's scary is the fact that maybe something like this could happen, and things could be happening to you, and you having to convince somebody that, in fact, is somebody actually there and you're not going crazy. I think that's kind of what I took away from this movie, is because you're watching the movie, you see the other things happening to her and you were like sympathize with her, and you're like, holy crap, how is she ever going to convince other people that it's not really her doing this and she's not going crazy. I think that side of it kind of plays a psychological role in your head of like what if this did happen to me? Like how would I convince other people that I'm not crazy? And I think another thing is just that scary factor of like when you're home alone and you feel like you're being watched, Like we all get those feelings ever right now, And then I like you think like somebody is another room and you look and there's nobody there. Your home alone, Maybe you hear a noise in the other room and you go in that room and you're freaked out, Like you get scared like that all the time, and you think about things like this, like what if somebody is in your shower when you open the shower car and what if somebody in your car in the backseat. And I think that side of it just kind of played into me kind of getting more more in this movie as it went along, of like oh man, I kind of worry about this kind of stuff and if this really happened in real life, which we develop new technologies every single day. What's to say somebody can't invent invent like a security suit like this where you can go invisible. Who's to say that this is already exists in our life right now if somebody's using this honest, So, I think that side of it, it's kind of crazy, just thinking how far technology can go and how much it could affect our lives like this. I think the movie also did well of letting Elizabeth Moss be the star of the movie, not really casting other people to sell this movie. I think her name alone and her performance alone is enough to get people who want to go see this. I like it when they have kind of I wouldn't say no name actress, but just lesser known actors as of the supporting cast, because you're not really building this movie is like go see this brand new movie with all these big actors. It's just like, Okay, Elizabeth mosses in this. Here's the plot, take it and go, because you can pretty much sell this movie by the plot of the movie, like, Okay, she thinks she's being stuck by a crazy X, which a lot of people can relate to and she has to convince people that he's actually existing. I think that alone gets kind of people wanting to go see this and people who just want to maybe get be scared a little bit. How it compares to Hollow Man, which I like Hollow Man, it's a little more cheesy, I think in the way that I think Kevin Bacon, the way he played that character and the things they had him do, was a little more like, Oh, that's kind of things you would probably think about when you were like thirteen years old, what you would do if you were invisible. And I think that movie doesn't have as much of like a suspense factor. It's just kind of him going through killing people one by one, and this is just him tormenting one single character. So I think that kind of twist on the adaptation is a lot better. I think overall, they're able to make this kind of a scary movie that stands on its own. I'd say, like the first, first and second actor that, and then it kind of turns into this more like, oh crap, this is actually going down now, and here's where all the action is. So it kind of ships from just like a suspenseful scary movie in the beginning to like all out kind of almost like an action free for all in the third act. And I think throughout the movie you kind of see Elizabeth Monster's character kind of get more and more I wouldn't say crazy, but kind of like something in her brain kind of turns and shift where she gets sick and tired of being tormented and sick and tired of this guy just trying to ruin her life to a point where it pushes her to the edge. And I think it's kind of cool to see here kind of step up and kind of really take action in the end of this movie, which I think was a really cool thing to see for a lead in this. So I say I would give it four out of five knives. That kept my intention throughout the entire movie. It started pretty much with action, built up the story, and it kind of gets right into the crazy things that happened. So there's really never any slow parts in the movie. And what I loved about this is it gives you that feeling of like how is she going to get out of this? Like how is this going to be resolved? You don't really see those kind of twists and turns coming in this and I think it doesn't really give everything away in the trailer. It kind of gives the plot and the overall set up. But I don't like when movies, especially scary movies, which they usually tend to give everything away in the trailer and then you're just kind of going into the theater knowing everything and seeing it all unfold. I think this one leaves some things to be figured out in the storyline. It leaves some twist and turns in there, and it kind of makes it worse to go see without just having everything ruined going into it, So I like that part of it. I also just thought that this has been pretty much the best adaptation of this, Like it's it's not cheesy like hollow Man was it a bit, and it's just a little more real and just kind of not scarier, but just more dramatic. I don't know if it really leaves itself up for a sequel. I kind of like it happening just in one instance. I don't think it needs to be, but I think it's good enough to maybe at least give it a shot for a sequel if the story is there, which they made a hollow Man two looks terrible. I never heard about it until I was researching for this, so maybe they just keep it at one. But all right, that is my review of The Invisible Man. All right, and that's the episode for this week. Before I hop out of here, I do have some movie news that I want to get to. I saw like three big headlines from this week that I wanted to share with you guys. Some things I'm excited about in movies. First up is that Jordan's Peel is remaking Candy Man, which back in the day was a movie that scared the crap out of me. It's when you go and you say the Candy Man's name like five times and then he appears. I saw the trailer actually when I went to go see The Invisible Man, and I didn't know he was redoing this. I was waiting on like another US movie or something like that. But I think having his view on Candy Man at looks really good and the trailer looks pretty scary. It looks pretty promising. And I love Jordan Peele. I was a big fan of Get Out. I thought US was great, so I think if anybody is going to do The Candy Man again, I'm glad it's him. But that comes out on June twelve. You can go watch that trailer, and I think you'd be pretty excited to if you're a fan of the original. I like when they go I'm a fan of rebooting horror movies because I think those stories are timeless, and I really like these characters from back in the day, like I like, I like when they do like the new Halloween movies, even like the new Freddie and Jason movies. I'm cool with rebooting those movies just because I'm such a big fan of those characters and I think that's really something you can't replicate anymore. So I'm excited for that one. I also saw that Steven Spielberg has stepped out of directing the new Indiana Jones movie, which I thought was a pretty big deal when I first talked about Harrison Ford coming back for that movie. I think it was that they worked at a deal to where they could do it together, and the fact that he's stepping down and just kind of being a producer on this one, I'm a little bit worried that it's not gonna be as good, just because he's been a part of the franchise for the whole thirty nine year history, and Spielberg is a huge director, Like he's probably the biggest director of our lifetime, and I guess that he's still working with the movie is a good sign. But I just really was excited to see them kind of do this movie together. I just want to see an older Indiana Jones. I think that still would be interesting to see. But the fact that he kind of stepped down is maybe a little bit of a bad sign. And then speaking of Steven Spielberg, he directed the first Jurassic Park, which they announced this week that the new Jurassic World has a brand new name. It's Jurassic World UM Part three in this series, and it's called Jurassic World Dominion, which I think looks pretty cool. And the fact that they are bringing back Laura during Sam Neil and Jeff Goldblum back into this one is a pretty cool idea to have them back from the original. Um. Steven Spielberg isn't directing this one. He hasn't really directed with any woman since, like the early ones, which I think kind of got worse and worse like after the first original. But I do like the rebooted franchise with Chris Pratt starting in these, but this one doesn't come out until one I think will be a huge, big blockbuster. I think overall like the first one with Chris Pratt was probably the best one, second one was okay, and I think the third one bringing back those original characters will be pretty cool. But that's all I have in movie news. Thanks everybody for listening to the episode this week. And before I go, I gotta give my Instagram shout out. I'm going over to Jen G Martin, who tweeted that she was listening to actually the Morgan Number two episodes. She was catching up on all the old episodes, and she posted a picture of her listening on her dashboard car, which I always think it's super cool to see the art work up in your car, and I've seen a lot of people doing this now. They listened to that episode I did with Morgan Number two a few weeks ago where she watched all twenty three Marvel movies and she came on here and gave her review of every single one. And I've seen people tweet me now and tag me that they're watching all the Marvel movies, which I think is pretty cool to start from the first one if you haven't seen them, or just to go back and to them all in the order they came out, which is the order we did him in. If you go back like maybe four or five episodes, you'll see that episode with Morgan number two and in the episode notes I have there um that the order she watched them, And so if you want to go check that episode out, it's a cool one to see. And if you want to do that challenge, it's a pretty big task with twenty three movies. I think it would take you like three and a half days or so if you watch them like twenty four hours on a loop. But shout out to gen Gi Martin on Instagram who watched that? And tag me and that if you want to get an Instagram shout out, that's all you gotta do. Just screenshot wherever you're listening to the podcast, if you're listening on Monday when this comes out or just later in the week, and tag me and that I'll repost those. And that means a lot to me when you put it in your Instagram story, because Hey, other people see you and there like, hey, what's this? Maybe I'll go check that out. So thanks you guys for listening to this week episode. I hope you enjoyed it. Thanks to my girlfriend for stopping by and being interviewed on our first ever podcast, and I will be back hanging out with you guys next week. If you want to tweet me any ideas you think I should do, or hit me up on Instagram, I'm at Mike Destro, or if you want to shoot me an email, you can hit me up at movie Mike d at gmail dot com. In the meantime, I will talk to you guys later. M
