The Funniest '90s Movies + What’s The Rule on Movie Spoilers? + Movie Review: First Cow

00:00:00
Speaker 1: The nineties were one of the greatest decades in history. They gave us things like the Tomagotchi, POGs, dunk a Rus, and Blockbuster membership cards, and some would say the nineties were the last great decade for comedies. I feel like it was just a specific formula for a nineties comedy which made them so great and even stand the test of time till now. So that's what I want to talk about on this episode of Movie Mix Movie Podcast the Funniest Movies from the nineties. I'm also going to break down once and for all what the rule on spoilers is, and a movie review of a movie called First Cow got all that for you on this week's episode. Thanks for hitting subscribe, Thanks for hitting download. If you're listening on Apple podcasts, make sure to hit that five star rating, write a quick little review, and 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 with classes from the Nashville Podcast Network. Movie Movie the nineties, What a great time to be alive. Some would argue the greatest time in history to ever be alive. I would argue that because I was born in the nineties. I'm a nineties kid, born in nineteen and really the only thing by saying that your nineties kid now is admitting that you're either thirty or about to be thirty, which is approaching for me. So what I wanted to do is talk about the funniest movies of the nineteen nineties, and I've compiled my list. I have my top ten. First of all, let's just talk about what defines a great nineties movie and why I think that there was something different about the genre in the nineties. Now it sounds weird to say, but I kind of feel like nineties movies, comedies in particular, we're a little bit more wholesome. It's not to say they didn't use bad language. That's not to say there weren't raunchy movies in the nineties, but there was something about how ninties movie was angled. And looking at this list of movies I put together, they all have a unique characteristic to where there's something about them that makes them feel like they could have only come out and worked in the nineties. I think since then, movies have gotten a lot more raunchier and crude. You could even argue that maybe the writing has just gotten a little bit lazy over the years. But all these movies that made my list I feel like have a sort of charm to them. And let's talk about the criteria first that I set out when making this list. I felt like a great movie from the nineties had to be something that was highly quotable. It also has to have a very good rewatchable rate, meaning that you could pick it up now and watch it multiple times. You also have to consider the soundtrack, just iconic moments and characters that you could remember from these movies. So all those things is what I considered into picking these movies and to where they landed on the list. So let's get right into it. At number ten from the year I was born is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to Secret of the Ooze. Now, it doesn't get more Nineties than the Ninja Turtles. And the thing I loved about this movie is they had to go in a different direction from the first one. If you watch the original Ninja's Hurtles, it's a lot more dark and doesn't even feel like a kid's movie. So there's a lot more violence than that one. They actually have weapons that they use a lot more, not only have freaking Shredder gets thrown into a garbage truck and just crushed and they're kind of okay with it at the end of that. So when they worked on the second one, they knew that it was going to be geared towards kids, obviously, and they wanted to make it more family friendly. So what they did is took away all the Ninja Turtles weapons and gave them funny props to fight with instead, making it less violent and more appealing to kids. Is more appealing to kids, they are able to sell more merchandise. That's the theory behind it. But I feel like in doing that, they made this one a lot funnier than the first one. Whether it's the visual gags or the quotes in this one, it's something that just always clicked with me as being one of my favorite nineties movies and as a kid, it's the whole reason my family called me Mikey because Michael Angelo was my favorite, and up until I was probably in college, everybody called me Mikey because Michael Angelo, and I think the best quote of the entire movie comes when they try to say rough eel and they get into the little two raft scene. The perimeter's quiet, Yeah, a little too quiet. Look it's ralf yeah, a little too rafe. And then you also have a very nineties appearance with Vanilla Eyes, Like it doesn't get more nineties than the Ninja Turtles and Vanilla Eyes doing Ninja raffs N and number nine, I'm going with the first Adam Sandler movie in this list, and it's gonna be Big Daddy, from arguably his last good film for a while. I think right after this movie he caught it into a space to where he was just doing kind of the same thing he was doing in the nineties, but we got older and maybe found it a little less funny. So this one was less wacky than all the other ones that made this list. But there's just something wholesome about Big Daddy. It's a movie that no matter when it comes on TV, I'll make a point to sit down and watch it. I think the funniest scene has to be when he goes to McDonald's and realizes they've changed the time for breakfast and I think of that every time I go to McDonald's and try to get breakfast. Is it ten thirty year eleven? I can never remember, but that scene still makes me laugh. Zania, what the hell's the matter with you? We'll take hotcakes and sausage. Sorry, so we stopped starving breakfast. We've talked about what four seconds later? No, you're thirty minutes and four seconds late. We stopped starving breakfast at ten thirty. No, no, no, I don't cry. I'm sorry. I wasn't cursing at you as cursing at the lady. Hey, thanks you my therapist. Take a walk. You want a happy meal, We'll get one of those happy meals. You got a happy meal? Can we get a happy We'll stop it to get it. You're the happy meal. And I don't know why, but I always remember the weirdest quotes from movies. And there's a scene where Julie and his son is driving him insane, wanting him to play the Kangaroo song and he just loses his mind. He's like all right and yells at him and he's like, were normal yesterday. For some reason, I always remember that quote, So that's a very memorable one for me, I know, a little bit obscure, but I love it. At number eight, this movie changed my life. I think it was one of the funniest things I had ever seen. And I know I was a young kid and probably shouldn't have watched this movie, but I think, like a lot of people they did anyway, didn't listen to their parents. I remember the VHS tape having a warning right there on the front of it. And this movie kind of messed with my mind turned me into a very kind of foul mouth kid for a little bit, and it felt like I knew I was watching something that was highly unapproved of. And the movie is South Park, Bigger, longer, and uncut from a fantastic movie. And Trey Parker and Matt Stone are two of the funniest people and the cool thing about them, and they had a lot of great movies in the nineties, and they tried, you know, having Hollywood movies with big Hollywood actors, and they are very much just anti Hollywood people. So when they did those movies, they found that they didn't like working with actors. They didn't like their attitude, they didn't like their agents, they didn't like that whole world. So being able to make a South Park movie to where they're in total control of their own characters and all the voices, that is what they really love. So all the other movies they did later on, like Team America, that's why they did it because they didn't want to work with actors. But not only is the movie hilarious, the soundtrack is also amazing, and they were even nominated for an Oscar for Best Original Song for the song they wrote, Blame Canada. They're not even a real country anywhere. And it's a great story that they went to the Oscars and dresses and they dropped acid before they went. Because they're very much again anti Hollywood, they didn't want to make a big thing of it. They kind of wanted to turn it into a joke, and in true fashion, they got there and everybody hated them for it. But you gotta love those guys. At Number seven is an unlikely comedy duo with Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker from nine. Gotta put rush Hour in here. There's nothing like a good buddy cop movie and one that just has a lot of memorable quotes. And this is another movie that I feel I put a lot of my own obscure quotes from and things that I just say in normal life. And there's a scene where Chris Tucker goes into the convenient store after handcuffing Jackie Chan to the steering wheel and he comes out. It's like, hey, I got you a beef and being burrito. I say that all the time, and I don't know why it's because of this movie. It's also just a great scene where they first meet and then later when he teaches them how to dance. A lot of funny moments in this movie. And I know they made part two, they made Part three, but the original O G has to be one of the best. And number six we have our first Jim Carrey appearance, which I feel he just dominated the nineties. There's a lot of Jim Carried movies you could put up here, but at number five, I'm going with a spin turo when Nature Calls from And as a kid, I actually watched these movies out of order. So I watched this one first and then the first part afterwards, and I was like, oh, the first one isn't even as funny as the second one. Again, kind of like the Ninja Turtles, I feel like they made this one a little bit more kid friendly than the first one because they knew that kids loved a Spintura and they had to kind of clean it up a bit and take out a lot of like the sexual stuff. So I feel on this one they kind of turned at even more so into a cartoon character, which he actually had a cartoon back in the nineties. To favorite quote of the movie is probably when he totally trashes that jeep and then goes to try to park it and just annihilates it and he's like like a glove kick. Just a totally ridiculous movie in every way, and I love it. It's totally nineties. And there we go with our first Gym Carey appearance at number five, another Adam Sandler entry from I'm putting Happy Gilmore. I think what makes Happy Gilmore such a great Adam Sandler movie is not only he funny in it, but it has so many great side characters, from Shooter McGavin to his grandma, to Chubbs, to the I R. S Agent to the guy who gets paid to heckle him at the golf tournament. Even Ben Stiller working at the nursing home has one of the greatest quotes of the entire movie. My fingers hurt. Well, now your back's gonna hurt because you just put landscape and duty m anybody else's finger shirt and didn't think so. But of course, the greatest cameo comes from the one and only Bob Barker. You like that, old man. You want a piece of mate. I don't want a piece of you, I want the whole thing. There we go. That's number five at number four. Is not only one of my favorite comedies from the nineties, but really one of my favorite movies of all time, and the movie is Friday. Ice Cube and Chris Tucker together are two of the funniest comedy duos ever. And the sad thing about Friday is they were never able to make a sequel with them too. Again. They've tried here and there, and there was even like talks of a reboot up until like last year, but unfortunately John Witherspoon, who plays Pops in the movie, passed away, so it doesn't look like that will ever really happen. But this is hands down one of the most quoted movies of all time, and there's so many references from this that you probably don't even realize that a Friday quote. But if you've ever heard the phrase by Felicia, that's where this comes from. It that's from Friday. Remember that, remember it, write it down. Take a bit queer. But it's not only just Ice Cube and Chris Tucker that make this movie. Again, it's the side characters that make this You got Debo, Big Worm, miss and Mr Parker. There's just so many great characters in this and the movie is just so funny that even like, my mom gets to humor this movie and she quotes this movie every time I come into kitchen. You k eating up all the food, all the chicken, all the pig feet, all the cot of green, all the hog malls. I want to eat some of them chicken. I love pig feet. Which is the funniest thing. Ever, when you hear my mom quote this movie, I have to get like a sound recording of her doing this. You'll quote it at work and it trips her co workers out because they're like, you know that movie. That's how just funny this movie, and it kind of transcends a bunch of people. So this one had to make the top five. At number three. Let's go to n the movie is Half Baked, starring Dave Chappelle. Now this is easily his best movie, and for Dave Chappelle being such a funny comedian, really the best to ever do that in our lifetime. At least in my opinion. I feel he never really translated and was ever to get in like to the whole Hollywood scene, because he did some comedies here and there, but nothing that was ever a huge hit. Now this one he actually wrote with his comedy partner Neil Brennan, So I think that shows a lot throughout this movie that he can tell his stuff that he found funny and was able to really kind of bring to life. And if you don't remember, he was actually in a star was born a couple of years ago. So maybe comedy isn't his thing. Maybe he can do more dramatic roles, but this one still makes me laugh. It's so ridiculous, it's so funny. But my favorite scene has to be whenever Scarface quits his job. You're cool out. Either that or when Brian, who is played by Jim Brewer, gives the lit for the snacks he wants from the grocery store. Get some sour cream and onion chips with some dit man, some beef jerky as a celery, grape chili, Uh, captain crunch with blue crunch berries, pizzas. We need two big pizzas. Man everything on him with water, a whole lot of water, and Bunyan. That's it. So that's a number three. So we've made it to the top two. I feel like these could only belong to really these two movies, and I had to debate which one would go where. So at number two from I'm putting Billy Madison. I just feel like this is Adam Sandler's best movie and really at his peak of being hilarious. And the movie is so dumb and so ridiculous, and he does these dumb things that I don't even know why we found them so funny when we first saw this, but it is yamp woo is better? I go on first, and cleaner hair. I need to hair, sulky and smooth. Oh really, fool, really stopped looking at you know. Adam Sandler is just kind of known for his low brow comedy, and we all kind of knew and loved him for that in the nineties, and for some reason now I feel like he gets a lot of crap for his movies not being as great as they once were, just being totally dumb. But I was like, what was he doing in the nineties, That's the way all loved him bor and now we're giving him crap for now, So I hate that he just gets slaughtered by the critics all the time. I think the only thing he really lacks in his new movies is they don't have as much heart as they once used to. And maybe they were just a little bit more fresh and funny in the nineties. And I put this one as my favorite just because this was his first movie as a lead actor, and I think he did better than everybody was expecting him to do because he was just fired off of SNL and he was kind of like, what am I going to do? Comes out with this movie and just was like, Okay, you guys don't want me on SNL, I'm gonna go be a movie star. And whether or not you like or don't like his new movies, he still makes a ton of money and it is really one of the highest paid actors of all time. And at number one, we're going with the nineteen ninety four classic Dumb and Dumber. Yes, I did it. So there's a lot of reasons why I think this is the funniest movie of the nineties, mainly because I think it's set the standard for the comedy genre at this time now. It came out in and I would say without this one, Adam Sandler wouldn't have had as a great career in the nineties, and of course Jim Carey wouldn't have had all his other comedies. In is a very significant year for Jim Carey because it was really when he hit the scene and hit the ground running and became a huge movie star. So right before this, in four he had a Spinter Detective, the original one, and he made that movie like it was known after that that he is the comedy guy. He's the go to lead actor for that. He was already in talks to make Dumb and Dumber at a much lower salary, but all of a sudden, bam, He's a movie star. So they had to go from offering him thousands of dollars to a cool hard seven million dollars to do Dumb and Dumber. That's a lot of money, considering that Jeff Daniels, who plays Harry in the movie, only got fifty dollars because he wasn't really known for his comedies at the time. He was mainly a dramatic actor. But you put them two together and you get comedy gold. So many great moments in this movie, from the most annoying sound in the world, Hey, I want to hear the most annoying sound in the world their orange and blue tuxas, or probably my favorite scene is when they get pulled over. Come on, give me that booze. You a little pumpkin pie hair cut it freight come on else they don't don't drink you keep your mouth shut if you knew it was good for your buddy. And why I think this movie works a well and it's still funny today is because they were able to make these characters completely not self aware in any way, so it never feels like they're in on the joke. They're just living their lives and doing these ridiculous things. But to them it is an outlandish To them, it isn't crazy. Everything they do is just kind of normal. So that they play it so straight faced and don't even feel like they're doing a comedy in this movie is what makes this movie so great. Comedy goal easily five out of five sheep Dogs. So there we go. The funniest movies from the nineties. Again, that doesn't cover every single one. There could be a lot of honorable mentions here, even just from Jim Carey and Adam Sandler. Movies like The Waterboy, The Mask and another. Great comedies are like American Pie from Mall Rats, Private Parts, Blue Streak one of my favorites, Can't Hardly Wait, and then Austin Powers. There's just so many great movies from the nineties. What's you take away from this segment? Sit down, grab your favorite nineties comedy and just laugh your face off. All right? All right, So we're gonna talk about movie spoilers, and I brought my lovely co host on free On Say Kelsey onto the podcast, Welcome, Thank you. So I wanted to bring this topic up because I saw this study come out this week that if somebody knows a spoiler to a movie, they're more likely to go and see it, which I thought was interesting because you often think that, oh, if you know the inning to a movie, you don't want to see it. But what they kind of found in this study is that a spoiler helps a movie make money because people know that they're going into a movie that's already kind of good and they're kind of getting something I guess exciting, or it's like there's something to it that I know. Like Marvel really tries it a hard time of keeping all the spoilers out of everything, but it actually helps them out when spoilers get out. So what I wanted to kind of discuss and get your thoughts on two of how you feel about movie spoilers. Now, some people say two weeks for big movies, some people say a year or even like five years. What do you feel about movie spoilers? It depends on the spoiler depends on how big of a spoil it is. Like if it's ruining the old plot twist, for me, I'm probably just gonna wait till the movie comes out. Now, I'm not gonna spend money on a ticket and go see it. But if it's like a small detail, I'm fine with that. I think what everybody tries to keep from knowing is mainly deaths in movies, and I feel that that doesn't really take away from the movie because any kind of big spoiler is probably gonna be that somebody dies. I think when the Avengers came out. That was kind of what they tried to keep from everybody. You didn't know I guess who died going into it, really, But being that they did try to keep the spoilers out, you knew it was something that dramatic. So I don't know. I feel if I know a spoiler going into a movie, I'm watching it and I know even though that I know what's coming next, I still find it enjoyable. Okay, let me give you an example. I won't say the spoiler, but a movie we watched this year, Crazy Stupid Love. Okay, there's a pretty big twist on that that's not a death. Would you still have watched that movie? That's a great point because I feel with that one, it's pivotal to the plot and not allowing somebody to experience a plot line like that is very important. So I feel a spoiler like that has to be kept away. That movie came out in twenty eleven, so that's almost ten years ago. Yeah, I feel like if I knew that plot point, yeah, we won't even still here. Okay, So that's that's a good point. But if that came out beforehand, who knows, maybe more people would have kind of seen that movie. It took me nine years to see it, apparently. I feel like that takes such a bit you watch the movie differently if you know that spoilers coming and you're just kind of waiting for it. Like I feel like that if it's something so pivotal to the storyline that it's a twist, I think it's a plot twist. I think that's what the main spoilers thing is. If it's a twist at the end of the movie that changes how you interpret it. You got to keep those spoilers out. So have you ever had someone ruined a movie for you? Yes, I did have one. My little brother ruined part of Ford v. Ferrari for me. But he also had a really good point, which I should add My brother's ten and extremely sassy and just he looked at me and he was like, what, it's a true story. It's it happened. And I was like, okay, fair point, kid. That is an interesting point. Though. I feel sometimes people say that you can spoil a movie if it happened in real life. I almost feel like you have to hold them to the same standards of if it's just a movie, because I yeah, and movies like that. They're often based on stories that maybe people are familiar with, but they don't know all the details about it. So revealing a plotline like that, even though it really happened, you can say, oh, well, it's history. I still feel like that holds the same standards. That's a good point, though, that one got spoiled for me. I remember I think I was leaving The Hunger Games, and this is a big thing for me that ever since this happened, I make a point not to talk about a movie until I'm out of the theater and in my car, and they ruined the ending of The Hunger Games, like right as we were walking out, they were so the new people are going in and people just got the movie walking out, and somebody said a pivotal plot point to that. You gotta be careful about that. I know, you immediately get out of a movie and you want to talk about it, whatever the person you went to see the movie with. But you can't talk about a movie right after you leave the theater because there's probably people walking into that theater going to see that movie. So that's a p s A. So I want to get into the concrete of what is the golden rule? Because I say this podcast is a spoiler free podcast. I want to review movies on here without you having to worry about something getting ruined. Now, the golden rule I've kind of had when it comes to spoilers, whether it be like a major plot point or like the ending of a movie, is five years. I feel like, if you haven't seen a movie in five years, you're probably not gonna watch it, and me giving away a plot point to that will either make you want to go see it and it won't really take away anything from that. What do you think about how long you should wait to give a spoiler? I think five years is fair. But again, go back to Crazy Stupid Love. It's been nine years and we still won't say which plot twists are talking about. I still think, though, if it was ruined after five years, like that's on me. If I haven't seen a movie in that amount of time, that's still on me after that amount of time. But also very big movies and very big blockbuster movies like the Avengers movies, I almost think you can talk about those in a certain space. So if it's somewhere people are going to where they know they're going to hear about the movie. I think you can kind of spoil those because there's such a big cultural thing, everybody's gonna be talking about them. I think with those kind of movies you get two weeks. I think that's fair because I mean, even this isn't movies, but like TV like things get spoiled the next day. So I feel like movies like two weeks is pretty fair. I feel yeah, new movies like that you get two weeks. Yeah. With TV shows, if anything happens live, you know the next day that people are gonna be talking about it. When it comes to like the Game of Thrones finale, next day you can give away spoilers to that anatomy and part of it got spoiled for me scrolling Instagram this morning and the news gave it away. So I'll always try to give everybody if we do get into spoilers, a spoiler alert, but also know that just because the movie is ruined for you and that sucks, I don't feel like it takes away completely of the process of enjoying that movie. So anyway, we'll keep this a spoiler free podcast. But again, the rule I'll go by is still that five year rule, and if I have to get into a spoiler, I'll give you guys a spoiler alert. So here we go. All right, let's get into a movie review. Now. I want to talk about this movie called First Cow that came out this year. I was very intrigued by this movie. First of all, the title First Cow. You think, what could this actually be about? Is it actually going to be about a cow? And I just saw a review from somebody I follow on Instagram saying this was one of the best movies so far, so I was like, I gotta watch it. It's a four film. I'll get into that. But before I talked about the movie, here's just a little bit of the trailer. Do you have a cow? Saying a place for cows? It's no place for white man. He's an I send some opportunities here, good r give me another. I'll give you six tickets for that last one. London in this Game so from which is just one of my favorite production companies. They've done movies like Uncut Gems, Ladybird, The Disaster Artists, Eighth Grade, Hereditary, The list goes on and on. They have a reputation of just putting out really good movies. And I think they've developed just a cult following which I'm a part of. That if I see that their name is on it, I am more likely to watch their movie, whether it be their dramas, which are always a little bit more skewed to something that you wouldn't expect to see, or their drama teas, which are always kind of very indie and low fly. I'm just into the style. So this is a film. I saw the trailer for it and I was like, huh, it looks kind of interesting. First of all, the thing I noticed about it is it's shot in four three ratio scale, which bear with me. Normally, if you watch something on wide screen, it's six nine, so that's wide screen. So it's basically shot in old school full screen, like you would see something on Instagram in a square. So that kind of stood out to me. And when I'm watching this movie, I was like, there has to be something more about the cow. Maybe the cow has a mind of its own, maybe the cow becomes possessed or something to where they personify the cow. That wasn't the case with this movie. It's literally about a first cow, so it takes place back in the twenties and it's these two guys who pretty much develop a friendship and they're trying to escape and run away from these bad guys who are trying to kill them, and they stumble upon this cow where it's the only cow that they have access to, and what they are able to do is illegally milk the cow at night and use the milk to bake these little biscuits that they go and sell to other people, start making a lot of money, and then of course eventually they get caught. There's a chase, and it all kind of goes from there. So that's pretty much what the movie is about. So it starts out getting you in expecting to be something more about the cow. The cow is just the cow. It's really about the friendship of these two guys and how they kind of develop a bond and developed his business, and them just trying to create a life for themselves while running away from people who were trying to hurt them. So I think my problem with the movie is not that it's a bad movie. I don't think that's the case here. I just was expecting something a little bit more, and something kind of more to the story of the cow. I don't know why it's called first Coal. The thing I did kind of like about this movie, and I'll give it some credit for, is that it's not afraid to be a slow paced movie. And I feel sometimes we go into movies just wanting everything so quick and so fast and want to know this in action here. I like a movie that can take a breath a little bit and show, just like some cinematographer, you show some scenery, let things develop. I just think this one kind of dwelled in that just a little bit too much. It was very much a film's film, if that makes sense. And from the trailer alone and the Rotten Tomatoes score which was nineties six percent, a very high score. That's an almost perfect score. And I think this is just one of those other instances to where it's a movie that critics love but audiences didn't really enjoy. Because it has like a six in score, I would be a little bit higher than that. I would hate to knock it for being too long, but I just got a little bit bored by the third act. So is it the best movie of not even close. I'm trying to get to a point right now to where I'm watching more of Oscar Worthy movies. This isn't it. But is it a bad movie? I wouldn't say that either. I just think it's not for me, and it's probably not for you unless you're a fan of those movies that your teacher in elementary school would put on randomly that they were like from the eighteen hundreds in black and white, and you had really no idea what the movie was about, but for some reason, the teacher loved it and forced us all to watch it. Unless you're a fan of those kind of movies, I don't think you will like this one. So I think it's a rare miss for on this one. It hooked me in with the trailer, it hooked me in with the poster, but I would say skip it. I give it two out of five buckets of Millie. All right, going to get into some movie news now. My fiance a Kelsey is back for this segment. So first bit of movie news is Home Alone turn thirty this year or and they're doing a reboot of Home Alone on Disney Plus. And the director came out and said that it looks like a waste of time. So it's the original director of Home Alone saying this, and he puts so much like detail and was so kind of passionate about that first movie and really is the reason that it was so great. He's kind of upset that he's not in any way associated with the new one. And the thing I feel about the new Home Alone is how are they going to get away with him being home alone again? Like, it doesn't really makes sense of it being set in or whatever modern day and then for getting their kid with all the apps and technology would be kind of weird, don't you think. Yeah, the kids could call their cell phones, they could look at like the ring camera and see you home. Yeah. I don't feel like that holds up now. And even from just going from the first to the second one, that's a big drop off. I don't really know why they're rebooting it, So maybe he has a point there. I like the first Home Alone. Are you a fan of it? I am. I'm also just this could be an entirely separate podcast. But all of the reboots. Is it necessary to reboot everything ever made? No, it gets kind of like another reboot again, especially with I mean, I get that there's a demand for movies that people loved, is you know, as a younger the nostalgia factor of like, Okay, we're doing it again. But I feel like that's all it really is. Like you get people on the internet being like, oh, they should make another one of these, but whenever they put them out, they never really live up to the Sandrards like movies, TV, like there's just a reboot of everything. She think it's necessary to all out on the reboots. A trailer I think we were both excited about this week is for the new Kristen Stewart Christmas movie coming to Hulu. We saw this trailer and we're like, we gotta watch this immediately. And it's called Happiest Season And we're currently watching Ship's Creek right now. Can you say that I never really know when it comes to that show. I feel people just call it a S creek whatever. I think you can say it. I mean I can say it on here, but I don't know. I just feel ask you if you're allowed to say it. Just feels weird still saying it. It's spelled s Okay. Well, anyway, Dan Levy's in this movie Kristin Stewart. There's a bunch of people Alison and it looks funny. So it's basically a girl who she goes home to see her girlfriend's parents and she realizes that she hasn't told her parents that she's gay. Yes, her girlfriend hasn't told Yeah, when she goes home. It sounds like a great premise for a movie. And I don't know, it looks funny, didn't you think? I laughed out loud several times during the two minute trailer, which Kristin Stewart looks great in it. But I'm just gonna say Dan Levy stole the trailer, and especially because we're watching that right now, I just think he is hilarious and it kind of feels like David in right. So I think that's gonna be great that comes out on the go. So her parents believe they're straight, daughter brought home her lesbian friend for Christmas. Not exactly. They also think that I'm straight. Have they ever met a lesbian? And then finally, Chris Pratt has been added to the cast of Thor, Love and Thunder. It doesn't come out till February one, twenty two, but I think that's a pretty good addition. And so it's Chris Pratt, Chris Hem's Worth, Christian Bale. They haven't really said what his character is going to be. And Natalie Portman great cast. But I really liked the Thor movies, and I really like them crossing paths with the Guardians of the Galaxy movies, so that's kind of where the Avengers left off of star Lord and Thor kind of battling out against each other. So I think he'll be a good addition to this. Do you like the Thor movies? Did you like Ragnarok? Yes? It was funny, right, it was funny. I've seen so many Marvel movies over the past. They all kind of blamed a little bit together when they do, and I've only seen I think I've only seen them once. Like all of the Marvel movies. That's kind of with me too. There's very few of them that I've gone back and rewatched. I think Black Panther was one, and the Avengers movies leading up to those, I rewatched those a lot. But I feel like Marvel movies are kind of like roller coasters. You get on them, you experience all the ups and downs once and then you're kind of good. I think the great ones do you go back and rewatch, But I feel like you kind of get that one time of enjoying everything, and then sometimes you go back and watch them, but they're on TV. I would turn it on and like have it on, Yeah, but I haven't actively sat down to rewatch it. For as much as I love superhero movies, I hardly rewatched them at home. Like I'll go see him in theaters opening day the weekend of but it's very few that I will actually sit down and watch at home. That's kind of weird. I think it's kind of a thing you experience in like a big screen setting. And it's weird that not a single Marvel movie has come out this year. We're gonna have to wait a whole other year for one. That feels like a weird kind of thing to think about. It's been that long since you've experienced one. I'm getting emotions again, and we're gonna end the podcast before I start trying. All Right, i gotta give my Instagram shout out of the week, and I'm actually gonna go and do a shout out from the reviews. A nice review. It's a five star review. The review is titled Mike is Great.
