"cloverfield" Discussed on Out Of The Basement Podcast

"Are you being specious there, Paul? No. I mean, it's just like, if you look at any of the, any of the, like anything, they age fantastic. I'm sorry. They all look like 30 year olds. So my, my problem with it is everyone has a Twi'lek. I'm not, I'm not even denying. Oh, I should show you some of the models I got when I was a female Orion's the lady they've got to play Hera. Her voice is fine. Her mannerisms are fine. It's it's her face. So Hera's face is like very kind of petite and kind of angular. And this girl's face is very wide and square. That's Mary Elizabeth Winstead, right? I don't know the name. I don't know who the actress is. I don't recognize the name you just said. She was the main love interest in Scott Pilgrim versus the world. Or the Cloverfield sequel. She was the girl. We said you sat Scott Pilgrim in the wall. Apparently she's married to Ewan McGregor. Okay. So they're like a Star Wars power couple. Nice. Cool. All right. Oh, just some movies though, if I can through it. We've already done movies. Sorry. We've come up with a new movie. Oh, really? There's a new animated movie. Okay. I watched it. It's good. They have all the living original cast back. Why? Who's who's gone? Garibaldi? Over half of them are gone. Yeah. Really? Delanne's gone. Wait, Delanne's gone? Yeah. She died a few years ago. Yeah. Oh, wow. Jakar's gone. What? Yeah. Oh, he, he was the first one that went. He was the first one that went. No, he wasn't because it was the doctor. Doctor, yeah. He died, he died young. Really? Oh, yeah. Yeah, so. Man, this show ruined so many lives. Oh, so I found out though why there's been nothing for so long in Babylon 5. So, some executive at Warner Brothers hated Babylon 5. Okay, so just buried it. He buried it. Every time something came up for a new book, new novel, new nothing, he buried it. He only left not too long ago. Okay. So, that's why they're now coming up with some new, you know, they're redoing the show, the new animated movie. They're going to have some whole bunch of novels come out and a whole bunch of other stuff as well. You kind of want to know what's going on with the white star. Yes. That just sort of ended up in the air. Well, again, because he hated it. So, what happened was when the, you know, the ranger one came was coming out. Yeah. So, that was based on we need to pull in numbers to show it's a viable show to continue on. Right. An NFL playoff game got delayed until the same time as the broadcast of Babylon 5. Just to tank it. Well, no, no, it wasn't. It was on purpose, but it did tank it. It wasn't on purpose. Of course, you made it sound like the NFL playoff game was intentionally moved by the executive to ensure that their numbers would be shit. It got delayed, but because it got delayed it got pushed back to the same time zone slot. And, gee, NFL playoff game or a sci-fi game? I would happily watch sci-fi. We would, but most North Americans went, ooh. NFL? NFL? So, it got. I can't remember the last time I watched a football game. So, because it got, it didn't do too well, he's like. I'd much rather watch a football game. He used that as an excuse and was like, but dude, we were up against an NFL playoff game. We can't help that. Oh, no, you didn't do good numbers. We're up against a fucking NFL playoff game. Not even regular season, a playoff game. Well, come on, it's. I mean, look, Firefly. Oh, I know. They fucked Firefly over so bad. I mean, it was a great show. If you put it in order when you start it, instead of starting on episode 3. And also on the same time slot, not change it throughout the year. There are certain time slots are called the death knell for TV, right? Friday evenings usually is like, that's the shows you don't care too much about. But TGIF, man. TGIF was when some of the best shows were. Was, but then if you're a kid and you didn't go out anywhere. Or you're a family of like 30-somethings. In the 80s, if you wanted to send a show to die, put it up against Cosby. Yeah. Oh yeah. That didn't age too well.

"And welcome back to cinema vino, but it's good to have you guys here with us. That's good to be here. We got Sean Jordan, but it's your boy. And my name is Todd Wofford. And it's good to be here. Summer chaos continues. We're down on our home stretch wrapping it up. We just got a couple more movies to go. Yeah, we don't have long to go. We're almost at the Labor Day weekend. It's almost through September. It's time. Put away all my white outfits and just move on with life. So yeah. Do you put away the white album too? Do you stop listening to it? I do. I go for the gray album after Labor Day. So I go with Jay-Z. DJ Danger Mouse. I go Black Album. DJ Danger Mouse. DJ Danger Mouse. DJ Danger Mouse. Jame Judy Dench. Jame Judy Dench. If I hear Yamo be there one more time. So beautiful Michael McDonald. That's a great baritone by the way. Grace Baritone and all the rock. You know all the words. I hate Michael McDonald. Yeah. What about the Doobie Brothers? I like the Doobie Brothers pre Michael McDonald. Okay. I had like the best of Doobie Brothers CD and like disc one. Awesome. Disc two. Awful. Yeah. Okay. So anyway, so we are drinking Riesling and we're talking about Troll Hunter. Oh, this is lovely Riesling. Yeah. German Riesling. Yeah. It's just German. Couldn't find a Swedish Riesling? They're out there somewhere, I'm sure. Norwegian. So obviously Summer Chaos to bring guys up to speed. We spin a random wheel or we picked random movies and then we spin a random wheel and pick a random wine to go with them. So this is all just. Or spirit. Or spirit or beer. It's willy nilly. Anything goes. Or Todd gets bored and just makes it some seven sevens that are like oddly strong. We don't actually see the process of Todd picking booze. So sometimes it's just like you guys are drinking rum. Sometimes you're not meant to see how the sausage gets made. I think he definitely has put like a finger in every single drink that he's given to me. A hundred percent. More than one. Smells like a sweaty hot dog. Yeah. Sometimes I go full bowling ball in there. So it adds to the three fingers. Three finger profile. That's a bad name. Tastes like Todd's fingers. We all three finger profile. Tastes like what Todd's fingers have been in. That's going to be the first line of my autobiography. It's the terroir. It is the terroir. So we're going to talk about the wine a little bit from the start. I got my notes right here all ready for you. Riesling is known primarily as a German rattle but you'll see it grown in a lot of other places such as Australia, France, the US and Canada. Australia is actually your second biggest rower of Riesling. Rieslings have a reputation as a sweet white wine but you actually got a pretty good wide variety of between dry and off dry. Pretty much any kind of flavor profile of white wine there's a Riesling in that range somewhere. Alsatian wines tend to be on very dry side from France. And then... This one's a little off dry, right? Yeah. This one definitely falls kind of in the between area. And then you go all the way up to Trokenberne Auslese which is going to be just sticky sweet. I mean just like... Hot sticky sweet. Yeah. I'm hot. Sticky sweet. From my hand to my feet. Yeah. Like Todd's fingers. So for food pairings you're going to put this with Asian foods, Indian foods, any kind of spicy dish. With the sugary sweetness of the wine will definitely kind of balance things out for you. Rieslings are coming usually at a good price point. They can be anywhere from $10 to $25. They don't tend to be crazy expensive. You drink them obviously very chilled but any kind of a bold spicy dish you can do a Riesling with. But you can also do them with holiday meals, kind of lighter cuisine. So like... You're actually going to get to do a Riesling tasting in Germany in November. Ooh. That's right. You're going across the pond. That's right. Pinkies up. Pinkies up. That's going to be fun. Yeah. I'll be able to taste it straight off the vine. You have to take lots of pictures. Yeah. Lots of pictures of Zavino. If I come back with Wiederhosen I'm going to be so happy. I would be disappointed if you don't. Yeah. In a big old box of shrooms. So this is going to be... Let me see if I can pronounce this correctly. Correctly. This is A.C. Chrisman, Faltz Riesling. Yes. I'm working on my like great escape like Nazi Gestapo accent for... Sandre. It's really about Bono. Weingutzeit. Yeah. Weingutzeit. That's like the quality. This is like a high quality Riesling. I think in German that literally translates to wine good. Yeah. Good wine. Yeah. It's like this is one of the top quality Rieslings that you can get. So about 25 bucks. And yeah. This one's going to be definitely kind of in between off dries where I put this one. It's definitely not sticky sweet. It's definitely not bone dry. But yeah. A little scale for you. If you're shopping for Rieslings from dry to sweet, you've got cabinet, which is K-A-B-I-N-E-T-T, spätlese, auslese, berna auslese, trocken berna auslese, and eiswein. So that's what you're looking at on the shelf. That's from dry to sweet. And this one's trocken, right? Yeah. Well, yeah. This is going to be... Well, that's a trocken berna auslese. So this is going to be kind of in between. So this is not quite the berna auslese. So this is going to be more towards the cabinet spätlese side of sweetness. This will be... So go for cabinet if you're looking for dry. Go for auslese if you're looking for pretty sweet. And then once you get up to berna auslese, it's going to be just hummingbird feed sweet. So this one definitely has some good solid like sugar to it. But I do give Riesling to my hummingbirds. They fly sideways. And then they have a great afternoon. Those wings slow wading. When they get drunk really fast and then they also sober up equally as fast. It's that heartbeat that just goes 100 miles a minute. But they can't hit that feeder once they get drunk. They can't get that beak in there. They self-regulate, you know? Yeah. Well, nature does that for them. They flap one wing at a time. They just got to... They're going to leave edibles out for the squirrels. Oh, that's great. Don't give me ideas. So Trollhunter, a little background on this one. This is your pick, Drat, right? Yeah. Sadly, I didn't know I was coming tonight. So I never got... Long story short, I'm watching my niece this week. She's two and a half. And I woke up at 5.15 today. So that's, you know... Where am I? Yeah. So sadly, I didn't get to watch this again before this, but I've seen it twice. Lovely young lady. Yeah. I can't remember what happens at the end. I was going to say, when was the last time you watched it? Not too terribly long ago. So this may be... It's educational for you. In the last two years, I want to say. Okay. So a little bit about Trollhunter. This was released October 29th, 2010. So long ago. That was almost 13 years ago. Gross. Yeah. Actually, I got to say, I think I watched this probably in 2011, 2012. So it had to have been pretty recently after it came out. Because this was a magnet release, which they did a lot of straight to DVD stuff, picked up stuff that was on the film festival rotation. I don't think this ever had a theatrical release. I mean, I'd heard about it. Well, stateside maybe, right? Yeah, probably. But I mean, if it's small enough, it probably had film festival releases with no actual theatrical. I'd say that's probably why the worldwide box office gross. I couldn't find it. It probably wasn't there. That's why. There you go. Budget of 3.5 million. I don't know if that's in Norwegian money, and I don't know what Norwegian money even looks like. So it's called a skribu. Two very different answers. Did you make that up? No. Run that about me one more time. What was that? Skribu. That's very Swedish chef-esque. So on IMDb, it has opening weekend of $5,585 in the US. That's US dollar. Okay. That's probably like 40 or 50 million in Norwegian. And the budget was 19.9 million nock, which I think is Norwegian kroner. That's beads. That's the larger denomination, but the lower denomination is skribu. Skribu. So it's like cents. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. This grossed over 2,000 matroska dolls or whatever. Well, it's like two cents. Yeah. They did a good box office in those little dolls that you get another doll inside and another doll inside. It brought in a lot of those. You got dinks, then you got skribus, and then you got sickles, and then you got nuts, and then you got galleons. That might be Harry Potter. So 515 is doing you real good, isn't it? We just lost our Norwegian listener base. Now, I like that guy. He's got good comments. I can never read them, but they're great. Yeah. They're all related to skribu. Well, I Google translate all of them, so I get the gist. So this had a budget of 3.5 million skribu. This is a found footage fantasy horror film. Vaguely in the similar vein as Blair Witch Project. That's the vibe I got a lot of, a little bit of Cloverfield, that kind of vibe too. Found footage. Yeah. It has some elements of Jaws. It also has some dark humor, moments of dark humor. I mean, very dry humor. This has become a cult hit over time. So very simple plot, has two film students and their camera person trailing a man they believe to be responsible for bear poaching in the mountainous Norwegian countryside. He is Hans, played by Norwegian comedian Otto Jespersen. Otto Jespersen. He is part Quint from Jaws, part Ahab, part Unabomber. Yes person? Maybe. Yes person. It's like having a yes man. You got a yes person. Now I'm going to have to work on my Norwegian. I don't know. I don't know nothing about that. In their attempt at fledgling expose journalism, the students stumble onto a wild story that Hans is actually a troll hunter who attempts to manage and contain the troll population all while also participating in a government project to keep the story buried from the general public. He's more like a troll ranger, really. He's like a park ranger for trolls. Yeah, because he obviously has, and I have like a kind of a weird shambling respect for the trolls, like he has a weird, you know, healthy fear of them. Respect your enemy. Yeah. Well, it's more like a, you know, a naturalist who, yeah, you don't want to contend with bears, but you respect that bears are a living thing that deserve to coexist. But you don't want them to get in your Mazda 6. No. No. Is that a car? That's a Mazda. Yeah. That's a smaller, it's a sporty, very small, I don't think a bear could fit in there. I don't think I could fit in there. Good mileage, though. The Mazda 6? Yeah. I think you're going to get high 20s, and that's not bad for a... The red ones are faster. Yeah, for a sportier sedan, especially because they have that rotary engine that gives you good speed. So... Yeah, that's right. You have a Mazda now. That's right. You're a Mazda. We're part of the Mazda. You know all the specs. Positive traction. Exactly. You've got quadraphonic. Hans hunts the trolls with a massive UV apparatus, which exposes them to their greatest weakness, which is sunlight, either real or artificial sunlight. This either turns them to stone, or it detonates them into a big, hairy pond of goo. The two students attempt to document Hans' story before they either get eaten alive, or the government confiscates their footage or silences them altogether. So that's what I've got for description. So, Trav, this was your pick. Yeah, I'm going to let Sean go first. It's been a while since I've seen this. It's been a while. I love this movie because it is so off the wall. It starts off kind of slow, and it's sort of a slow burn early on, but then it ramps up pretty fast, and you just get into it. For the budget that it was, it's a very good movie. Good-looking movie. Good-looking movie? I mean, with a budget of $19.9 million, you know, you've got to have some assets being put into it. But the nice thing about doing the found footage is you don't have to dedicate resources to good writing and editing. You can just sort of have these real shoddy jump cuts and things just kind of go all over the place. You don't have to actually end it that well. Spoilers, because you wanted to remember how it ends. Basically, the main reporter guy ends up getting rabies, finds out he got rabies from the trolls, and then ends up running away with the footage. Takes the cameras because the government folks are coming to take the footage. Which the government folks are not like dudes in suits with sunglasses. It's just like a guy in a parka. Oh yeah, we're going to take your footage, okay? Hey, you can't have footage? I'm going to take that from you? We'll give you 4,000 scuba for your footage. We've got to put that joke to bed, guys. I'm sorry. You opened that can of worms. You created a monster. I apologize to all Norwegians. But, I mean, it just sort of ends. It just sort of like he runs away with the camera and then there's, you know, some text on a black screen of exposition of this is what we think happened. This is unsubstantiated. Faux exposition. Yeah, faux exposition. Multiple experts have analyzed this footage and determined it's authentic. It's like, okay. But it's fun. It's a fun movie. It's goofy. It's a little, I wouldn't even say like sci-fi or horror. Dark comedy? Yeah, I get a lot of comments about that. I guess. Yeah, because there are really comedic moments, right? Like they hired the Muslim camerawoman and they're talking about whether or not her fact that she's a Muslim will attract- Does she believe in God? Is she? It's Christians? I don't know. We'll find out. Whatever. Yeah. It's a little bit like Gremlins 2. Like, wait a minute. They can't eat after midnight. I mean, it's always midnight somewhere and it pops out. It reminds me of the scene in Clue where they find the dead body again after finding so many dead bodies and they're just like, go to the other room, see the dead body. It's like, she's Muslim. Does that count? We'll find out. We'll see. We'll see how hungry they are. We'll do it for science. But yeah, I just love, I love the lore building of like the trolls are, they follow all these old rules. Like he's putting tires under bridges because trolls live under bridges, obviously. Yeah. Yeah. You know, and it's like, oh, they eat the bones of, or they smell the blood of a Christian man. It's like that's what sets them off. And then he comes walking into the big, like the, the bear suit that's like a suit of armor. I think, yeah, when he's under the, yes, because he has to take the blood from the troll. And so to do that, he has this giant, ridiculous syringe. Yeah. Just goofy. Yeah. Just goofy. I can tell they had a lot of fun making the movie, but it's, it's good. It's a romp. Yeah, it is. And yeah, it hits on all those, to me, I mean, I put the word Tolkien-esque in my notes of like, it hits the Tolkien-esque tropes. I mean, obviously it goes further than that, further back from that, like folk tales of trolls, but you also, I got to put like the Hobbit vibe, you know, the trolls turning into stone. Turning into stone. Yeah. But with like a tinge of bureaucracy. Yeah. There's a little bit of like that sort of, I don't know, pseudo X-Files thing of like, we've got to cover this up, you know, the government's got to step in and never happened. But, you know, of course that's exactly what it would look like if the government did have a troll hunting agency is he would have to fill out this form of like troll extermination. Yeah. But yeah, it's not some guys in some bad-ass car in black suits, it's like some guy in a Saab with a vest on like, oh yeah, let me see your footage over there. I'm going to have to delete your camera. It also reminded me somewhat of Blade where they're like fighting some old, you know, folkloric beast with like all the tech of today. It was just like, but on a shoestring budget, like Blade and Whistler where they're like, we're not exactly the March of Dimes or Hellboy. Yeah. We're just grabbing stuff. Well, no, Hellboy had a whole, you know, like a group behind him. I don't know, Blade had some cool tech though. Blade did. And a bad-ass car. But they were, you know, just a shoestring budget trying to, they're upset that their department doesn't get more funding. Right. They're like, this is what we got. He's just, he's like, I'm tired. I don't get vacation. Like, I just, I don't care. Yeah, you can film me. I don't care. I go where I'm needed. Great weather. I have that in my notes. I was like, I feel like Travis. I'm watching Sun and like in for my like rating, it's like, this is good weather. This is like good, foggy, rainy weather. I love it. And you know, they cut to like the mountains and the kind of cool, misty, you know, again, like Lord of the Rings vibe, the cool, misty mountains. And it's like good weather, you know? Yeah. I felt right at home in this flick. And I love, like you said that. Yeah, I've been saying that for years. You said like Quint from Jaws. That's exactly what I was thinking, too, is that when they have to, when they were filming him from afar, you know, found footage films are kind of difficult to do ever since what Blair Witch Project, obviously quintessential. Cloverfield also did it well. I love a giant kaiju monster. Paranormal activity? I have never seen any of the paranormals. Well, maybe I'm kind of a giant pussy. Come on. OK, well, hey, we got October coming up. That's true. But I think there's oh, I might have seen the end of quarantine, the one where there's like zombies. There's like a fire or something and news crew goes in there and they have to close. They have to quarantine the building or something. They're like, shit, there's something in here with us. I think I've seen that. Maybe. So I've heard good things about that. And it was a remake of a foreign film, I think. But those Quarantinos. Yes. But I hadn't seen a found footage from Robert Rodriguez's band. Yeah, I hadn't seen a found footage film in a while. And this one was actually the reason I got Netflix, because I was stealing my brother's Netflix. He was trying to watch something at the same time. And I was like, ah, fuck it. Fine, I'm going to buy it. So I watched this whenever it was on Netflix and I had heard good things about it. Which it's not anymore. Yeah, it's not. Couldn't find that anywhere. Bastards. Yeah, but I love the the fact that, you know, with not a huge budget, they're able to do more with less. I mean, all their money obviously went into the special effects and the trolls, which looked damn good. They looked really good. Yeah. You would think with this on paper, you're like, this is not going to be great. But it. Yeah, it looked lovely. It's a huge, giant fucking Godzilla troll at the end. First of all, where the fuck is he sleeping? Like how is he in the mountains? He's in the mountains. Yeah. But God, that thing's dick as big as a 40 foot long school bus. I don't know. I'm at school. I just said bus. I don't know why I said school bus. But yeah, I loved Hans in it. He was just fed up and was like, fuck this. But I was very pleasantly surprised when I saw it. And then there's a pseudo, not a sequel exactly, but kind of along the same vein, a movie named Just Troll came out in 2022.

A highlight from Trollhunter

"And welcome back to cinema vino, but it's good to have you guys here with us. That's good to be here. We got Sean Jordan, but it's your boy. And my name is Todd Wofford. And it's good to be here. Summer chaos continues. We're down on our home stretch wrapping it up. We just got a couple more movies to go. Yeah, we don't have long to go. We're almost at the Labor Day weekend. It's almost through September. It's time. Put away all my white outfits and just move on with life. So yeah. Do you put away the white album too? Do you stop listening to it? I do. I go for the gray album after Labor Day. So I go with Jay -Z. DJ Danger Mouse. I go Black Album. DJ Danger Mouse. DJ Danger Mouse. DJ Danger Mouse. Jame Judy Dench. Jame Judy Dench. If I hear Yamo be there one more time. So beautiful Michael McDonald. That's a great baritone by the way. Grace Baritone and all the rock. You know all the words. I hate Michael McDonald. Yeah. What about the Doobie Brothers? I like the Doobie Brothers pre Michael McDonald. Okay. I had like the best of Doobie Brothers CD and like disc one. Awesome. Disc two. Awful. Yeah. Okay. So anyway, so we are drinking Riesling and we're talking about Troll Hunter. Oh, this is lovely Riesling. Yeah. German Riesling. Yeah. It's just German. Couldn't find a Swedish Riesling? They're out there somewhere, I'm sure. Norwegian. So obviously Summer Chaos to bring guys up to speed. We spin a random wheel or we picked random movies and then we spin a random wheel and pick a random wine to go with them. So this is all just. Or spirit. Or spirit or beer. It's willy nilly. Anything goes. Or Todd gets bored and just makes it some seven sevens that are like oddly strong. We don't actually see the process of Todd picking booze. So sometimes it's just like you guys are drinking rum. Sometimes you're not meant to see how the sausage gets made. I think he definitely has put like a finger in every single drink that he's given to me. A hundred percent. More than one. Smells like a sweaty hot dog. Yeah. Sometimes I go full bowling ball in there. So it adds to the three fingers. Three finger profile. That's a bad name. Tastes like Todd's fingers. We all three finger profile. Tastes like what Todd's fingers have been in. That's going to be the first line of my autobiography. It's the terroir. It is the terroir. So we're going to talk about the wine a little bit from the start. I got my notes right here all ready for you.

Rieslings are coming usually at a good price point. They can be anywhere from $10 to $25. They don't tend to be crazy expensive.

I'll be able to taste it straight off the vine. You have to take lots of pictures. Yeah. Lots of pictures of Zavino. If I come back with Wiederhosen I'm going to be so happy. I would be disappointed if you don't. Yeah. In a big old box of shrooms. So this is going to be... Let me see if I can pronounce this correctly. Correctly. This is A .C. Chrisman, Faltz Riesling. Yes. I'm working on my like great escape like Nazi Gestapo for... accent Sandre. It's really about Bono. Weingutzeit. Yeah. Weingutzeit. That's like the quality. This is like a high quality Riesling. I think in German that literally translates to wine good. Yeah. Good wine. Yeah. It's like this is one of the top quality Rieslings that you can get. So about 25 bucks. And yeah. This one's going to be definitely kind of in between off dries where I put this one. It's definitely not sticky sweet. It's definitely not bone dry. But yeah. A little scale for you. If you're shopping for Rieslings from dry to sweet, you've got cabinet, which is K -A -B -I -N -E -T -T, spätlese, auslese, berna auslese, trocken berna auslese, and eiswein. So that's what you're looking at on the shelf. That's from dry to sweet. And this one's trocken, right? Yeah. Well, yeah. This is going to be... Well, that's a trocken berna auslese.

So go for cabinet if you're looking for dry. Go for auslese if you're looking for pretty sweet. And then once you get up to berna auslese, it's going to be just hummingbird feed sweet. So this one definitely has some good solid like sugar to it. But I do give Riesling to my hummingbirds. They fly sideways. And then they have a great afternoon. Those wings slow wading. When they get drunk really fast and then they also sober up equally as fast. It's that heartbeat that just goes 100 miles a minute. But they can't hit that feeder once they get drunk.

They're going to leave edibles out for the squirrels. Oh, that's great. Don't give me ideas. So Trollhunter, a little background on this one. This is your pick, Drat, right? Yeah. Sadly, I didn't know I was coming tonight. So I never got... Long story short, I'm watching my niece this week. She's two and a half. And I woke up at 5 .15 today. So that's, you know... Where am I? Yeah. So sadly, I didn't get to watch this again before this, but I've seen it twice. Lovely young lady. Yeah. I can't remember what happens at the end. I was going to say, when was the last time you watched it? Not too terribly long ago. So this may be... It's educational for you. In the last two years, I want to say. Okay. So a little bit about Trollhunter. This was released October 29th, 2010. So long ago. That was almost 13 years ago. Gross. Yeah. Actually, I got to say, I think I watched this probably in 2011, 2012. So it had to have been pretty recently after it came out. Because this was a magnet release, which they did a lot of straight to DVD stuff, picked up stuff that was on the film festival rotation. I don't think this ever had a theatrical release. I mean, I'd heard about it. Well, stateside maybe, right? Yeah, probably. But I mean, if it's small enough, it probably had film festival releases with no actual theatrical. I'd say that's probably why the worldwide box office gross. I couldn't find it. It probably wasn't there. That's why. There you go. Budget of 3 .5 million. I don't know if that's in Norwegian money, and I don't know what Norwegian money even looks like. So it's called a skribu. Two very different answers. Did you make that up? No. Run that about me one more time. What was that? Skribu. That's very Swedish chef -esque. So on IMDb, it has opening weekend of $5 ,585 in the US. That's US dollar. Okay. That's probably like 40 or 50 million in Norwegian. And the budget was 19 .9 million nock, which I think is Norwegian kroner. That's beads. That's the larger denomination, but the lower denomination is skribu. Skribu. So it's like cents. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. This grossed over 2 ,000 matroska dolls or whatever. Well, it's like two cents. Yeah. They did a good box office in those little dolls that you get another doll inside and another doll inside. It brought in a lot of those. You got dinks, then you got skribus, and then you got sickles, and then you got nuts, and then you got galleons. That might be Harry Potter. So 515 is doing you real good, isn't it? We just lost our Norwegian listener base. Now, I like that guy. He's got good comments. I can never read them, but they're great. Yeah. They're all related to skribu. Well, I Google translate all of them, so I get the gist. So this had a budget of 3 .5 million skribu. This a is found footage fantasy horror film. Vaguely in the similar vein as Blair Witch Project. That's the vibe I got a lot of, a little bit of Cloverfield, that kind of vibe too. Found footage. Yeah. It has some elements of Jaws. It also has some dark humor, moments of dark humor. I mean, very dry humor. This has become a cult hit over time. So very simple plot, has two film students and their camera person trailing a man they believe to be responsible for bear poaching in the mountainous Norwegian countryside. He is Hans, played by Norwegian comedian Otto Jespersen. Otto Jespersen. He is part Quint from Jaws, part Ahab, part Unabomber. Yes person? Maybe. Yes person. It's like having a yes man. You got a yes person. Now I'm going to have to work on my Norwegian. I don't know. I don't know nothing about that. In their attempt at fledgling expose journalism, the students stumble onto a wild story that Hans is actually a troll hunter who attempts to manage and contain the troll population all while also participating in a government project to keep the story buried from the general public. He's more like a troll ranger, really. He's like a park ranger for trolls. Yeah, because he obviously has, and I have like a kind of a weird shambling respect for the trolls, like he has a weird, you know, healthy fear of them. Respect your enemy. Yeah. Well, it's more like a, you know, a naturalist who, yeah, you don't want to contend with bears, but you respect that bears are a living thing that deserve to coexist. But you don't want them to get in your Mazda 6. No. No. Is that a car? That's a Mazda. Yeah. That's a smaller, it's a sporty, very small, I don't think a bear could fit in there. I don't think I could fit in there. Good mileage, though. The Mazda 6? Yeah. I think you're going to get high 20s, and that's not bad for a... The red ones are faster. Yeah, for a sportier sedan, especially because they have that rotary engine that gives you good speed. So... Yeah, that's right. You have a Mazda now. That's right. You're a Mazda. We're part of the Mazda. You know all the specs. Positive traction. Exactly. You've got quadraphonic. Hans hunts the trolls with a massive UV apparatus, which exposes them to their greatest weakness, which is sunlight, either real or artificial sunlight. This either turns them to stone, or it detonates them into a big, hairy pond of goo. The two students attempt to document Hans' story before they either get eaten alive, or the government confiscates their footage or silences them altogether. So that's what I've got for description. So, Trav, this was your pick. Yeah, I'm going to let Sean go first. It's been a while since I've seen this. It's been a while. I love this movie because it is so off the wall. It starts off kind of slow, and it's sort of a slow burn early on, but then it ramps up pretty fast, and you just get into it. For the budget that it was, it's a very good movie. Good -looking movie. Good -looking movie? I mean, with a budget of $19 .9 million, you know, you've got to have some assets being put into it. But the nice thing about doing the found footage is you don't have to dedicate resources to good writing and editing. You can just sort of have these real shoddy jump cuts and things just kind of go all over the place. You don't have to actually end it that well. Spoilers, because you wanted to remember how it ends. Basically, the main reporter guy ends up getting rabies, finds out he got rabies from the trolls, and then ends up running away with the footage. Takes the cameras because the government folks are coming to take the footage. Which the government folks are not like dudes in suits with sunglasses. It's just like a guy in a parka. Oh yeah, we're going to take your footage, okay? Hey, you can't have footage? I'm going to take that from you? We'll give you 4 ,000 scuba for your footage. We've got to put that joke to bed, guys. I'm sorry. You opened that can of worms. You created a monster. I apologize to all Norwegians. But, I mean, it just sort of ends. It just sort of like he runs away with the camera and then there's, you know, some text on a black screen of exposition of this is what we think happened. This is unsubstantiated. Faux exposition. Yeah, faux exposition. Multiple experts have analyzed this footage and determined it's authentic. It's like, okay. But it's fun. It's a fun movie. It's goofy. It's a little, I wouldn't even say like sci -fi or horror. Dark comedy? Yeah, I get a lot of comments about that. I guess. Yeah, because there are really comedic moments, right? Like they hired the Muslim camerawoman and they're talking about whether or not her fact that she's a Muslim will attract - Does she believe in God? Is she? It's Christians? I don't know. We'll find out. Whatever. Yeah. It's a little bit like Gremlins 2. Like, wait a minute. They can't eat after midnight. I mean, it's always midnight somewhere and it pops out. It reminds me of the scene in Clue where they find the dead body again after finding so many dead bodies and they're just like, go to the other room, see the dead body. It's like, she's Muslim. Does that count? We'll find out. We'll see. We'll see how hungry they are. We'll do it for science. But yeah, I just love, I love the lore building of like the trolls are, they follow all these old rules. Like he's putting tires under bridges because trolls live under bridges, obviously. Yeah. Yeah. You know, and it's like, oh, they eat the bones of, or they smell the blood of a Christian man. It's like that's what sets them off. And then he comes walking into the big, like the, the bear suit that's like a suit of armor. I think, yeah, when he's under the, yes, because he has to take the blood from the troll. And so to do that, he has this giant, ridiculous syringe. Yeah. Just goofy. Yeah. Just goofy. I can tell they had a lot of fun making the movie, but it's, it's good. It's a romp. Yeah, it is. And yeah, it hits on all those, to me, I mean, I put the word Tolkien -esque in my notes of like, it hits the Tolkien -esque tropes. I mean, obviously it goes further than that, further back from that, like folk tales of trolls, but you also, I got to put like the Hobbit vibe, you know, the trolls turning into stone. Turning into stone. Yeah. But with like a tinge of bureaucracy. Yeah. There's a little bit of like that sort of, I don't know, pseudo X -Files thing of like, we've got to cover this up, you know, the government's got to step in and never happened. But, you know, of course that's exactly what it would look like if the government did have a troll hunting agency is he would have to fill out this form of like troll extermination. Yeah. But yeah, it's not some guys in some bad -ass car in black suits, it's like some guy in a Saab with a vest on like, oh yeah, let me see your footage over there. I'm going to have to delete your camera. It also reminded me somewhat of Blade where they're like fighting some old, you know, folkloric beast with like all the tech of today. It was just like, but on a shoestring budget, like Blade and Whistler where they're like, we're not exactly the March of Dimes or Hellboy. Yeah. We're just grabbing stuff. Well, no, Hellboy had a whole, you know, like a group behind him. I don't know, Blade had some cool tech though. Blade did. And a bad -ass car. But they were, you know, just a shoestring budget trying to, they're upset that their department doesn't get more funding. Right. They're like, this is what we got. He's just, he's like, I'm tired. I don't get vacation. Like, I just, I don't care. Yeah, you can film me. I don't care. I go where I'm needed. Great weather. I have that in my notes. I was like, I feel like Travis. I'm watching Sun and like in for my like rating, it's like, this is good weather. This is like good, foggy, rainy weather. I love it. And you know, they cut to like the mountains and the kind of cool, misty, you know, again, like Lord of the Rings vibe, the cool, misty mountains. And it's like good weather, you know? Yeah. I felt right at home in this flick. And I love, like you said that. Yeah, I've been saying that for years. You said like Quint from Jaws. That's exactly what I was thinking, too, is that when they have to, when they were filming him from afar, you know, found footage films are kind of difficult to do ever since what Blair Witch Project, obviously quintessential. Cloverfield also did it well. I love a giant kaiju monster. Paranormal activity? I have never seen any of the paranormals. Well, maybe I'm kind of a giant pussy. Come on. OK, well, hey, we got October coming up. That's true. But I think there's oh, I might have seen the end of quarantine, the one where there's like zombies. There's like a fire or something and news crew goes in there and they have to close. They have to quarantine the building or something. They're like, shit, there's something in here with us. I think I've seen that. Maybe. So I've heard good things about that. And it was a remake of a foreign film, I think. But those Quarantinos. Yes. But I hadn't seen a found footage from Robert Rodriguez's band. Yeah, I hadn't seen a found footage film in a while. And this one was actually the reason I got Netflix, because I was stealing my brother's Netflix. He was trying to watch something at the same time. And I was like, ah, fuck it. Fine, I'm going to buy it. So I watched this whenever it was on Netflix and I had heard good things about it. Which it's not anymore. Yeah, it's not. Couldn't find that anywhere. Bastards. Yeah, but I love the the fact that, you know, with not a huge budget, they're able to do more with less. I mean, all their money obviously went into the special effects and the trolls, which looked damn good. They looked really good. Yeah. You would think with this on paper, you're like, this is not going to be great. But it. Yeah, it looked lovely. It's a huge, giant fucking Godzilla troll at the end. First of all, where the fuck is he sleeping? Like how is he in the mountains? He's in the mountains. Yeah. But God, that thing's dick as big as a 40 foot long school bus. I don't know. I'm at school. I just said bus. I don't know why I said school bus. But yeah, I loved Hans in it. He was just fed up and was like, fuck this. But I was very pleasantly surprised when I saw it. And then there's a pseudo, not a sequel exactly, but kind of along the same vein, a movie named Just Troll came out in 2022.

"Well three westworld he was in it okay and he was in. I know he was in one of the cloverfield movies over fields lane. Or whatever and my number one and you know. I gotta tell you this. Probably the first movie that. I always recommend people. It is a horror comedy movie. That i fucking love so much called the final girls. It was released in two thousand fifteen and this is not to be confused with the movie. Final girl with abigail breslin. Though i think one of the dudes who's end the final girls his also in final girl. If i'm not mistaken. Anyway it has testified. Amiga it has thomas middle ditch nina dobrev mellon akron. So many good people. And i love it because e oh it's a it's a this girl's mom was like this scream queen from this movie in the eighty s. And that's what she's known for. Well the mom ends up. Dying daughter testified. Media is very she's distraught. She's warning her mom while they're having this big. I dunno thirtieth anniversary or something of the movie screening during the screening. Something happens where tessa for me and some of her friends get sucked into the movie. So now they're trying and so it's like this bittersweet thing where she's she's there with her mom she gets to see your mom again by her. Mom is the character in the movie but has got adam devine who was just fucking how it so. It's funny it's got the you know some of the scary thing like there's one character she's the sex pot who she cannot run without. Falling the stereotypical girl. Who can't it's just. There's so many tongue in cheek moments like you have to watch it. I think it's on amazon prime right now it is. I need the best ever. I love that. We did not have one crossover in our top. John's a couple. I mean i had some of yours. Obviously an honorable mentions and maybe some of minor in your honorable mentions. But i cannot believe with as many horror movies as we've seen together and that's we've talked about. I can't believe none of them. Crossover right so i'm gonna do my honorable mentions. I'm just going to list them. I won't go into a whole lot of exposition about them just going to list. What i've got just in case. Some other people might want some other movies to watch this month. So number eleven is may. Have you heard of that one. That one really good forescent. Jeremy sisto is honestly. This is one of those movies and here is here. I go saying. I'm not gonna go into a lot of exposition but i feel like i need to clarify angela. Bettas who plays the lead character makes the entire movie like this movie could have been so ridiculous but she carries it in a way. That really balances it out. It's kind of loosely at take on frankenstein kind of definitely highly recommended and number twelve ready or not loved loved loved. It didn't quite make my top ten but highly recommended number. Thirteen different kind of horror pan's labyrinth. Oh i've never seen that. It is beautiful but still a little unsettling number fourteen the others just because the twist at the end just threw me number fifteen baba. I loved everything and deals with mental health. Basically number sixteen took me years to finally watch this movie. But the conjuring scared the hell out of me. Now we go into these are these are slasher movies. That i loved when i was growing up. So of course. The original halloween original texas chainsaw massacre scared the fuck outta me. I still get terrified. If i'm driving by myself down a country road. And there's a house in the distance friday the thirteenth the final chapter. I know that may surprise them. I went with number four. But i feel like that one had the best murders gas number. Twenty sleep away camp horrible acting and actually a little laughable but the ending of that movie. if it doesn't make you go. Oh my god what the fuck. There's something wrong with you. Oh my gosh. I can not believe. There are two honorable. Mentions that are in my top ten. But that said and you had to in my top ten raised in your honorable mention. Yes yes i wrote trash. Okay so i did not put my honorable mentions in order. Just see no but okay okay. We're going to start with my number ten. So like i said i did like what truly strikes fear in my heart so there are some of these that technically there are horror movies or thrillers but people may not put it on our show. A rule ten is jaws. I still go in the ocean. I will measure. I know how you are with sharks. I cannot. I love shark week. It is my favorite week of the year. I love anything. I can learn about sharks but like there was one time that the girl that i went to the museum and they had a shark tank and you could pet the sharks. I mean i thought. I was going to have to call to get us home because i was so shaky and terrified. That movie fucked me up. When i was six years old in galveston when we were saying at our beach house in galveston and i just that day. I'd gone in the water. And the next day i never did again. What's going to happen so any movies that makes that kills you. That just changes your life like that. I had to put a list number. Nine is along the same lines psycho. Not i my stepfather. Got so mad at me because i went through this alfred hitchcock vase and i watched it when i probably shouldn't have and myself got so mad at me because he would be like after every shower he's like. Why is the floor soaking wet. It's because i would shower with the shower curtain wide open so that i could watch the door the whole time. Sir i did. I did that for almost a year. I'm not even kidding. And i still have to keep an eye on the door the entire time while i showered just now see-through without really mess with me. When i watched the birds i had there was a few. There was a while. Anytime i would see a flock of birds coming at me. I'd be like i'm going to step inside until they leave. That's there's like a certain time around here out in katy you probably remember where all these blackbirds. We'll just hang out in a parking lot. Joe it is so scary. I have a good friend. She is so scared of birds if there is one in the vicinity. It's like the sixth sense. She feels it and she cannot focus on anything.

A reimagining of like ted bundy's life that's a good question If you just have like one or two movies of about ted bundy like every couple of decades it might be okay but like you know Five every month isn't necessary but you know what is five movies about l. Bundy you like creature features don't you. I do like creature. Features in fact vo creature. The black lagoon mask. I was wearing earlier. It's an awesome very awesome mascot. It came from below is a creature feature from the united kingdom.

Like it came from below can be a part of like a triple feature with. I was a teenage war. Wolf from outer space This is a great title for this type of before a creature feature. So yes. there's a creature in this. yes it is featured. Is this type of creature feature you. Were anticipating no there is very minimal creature. I was really expecting more. This will be had a lot going on it was suspenseful and it was intense. But i need more creature was advertised itself as a creature feature. And when you do that. You're going to set up an expectation even for people who you know. They don't go on with high low expectations. Whatever creature feature that does set up something that you're going to see a lot of if you just as a horror movie horror movie with an unexpected encounter. That's something a little bit different. When you say creature feature i'm thinking like wolfman every other scene type of thing so I'd agree with you that There's the but yeah. This is the type of creature feature that Would lead one. Some might think of bud. Then i guess my question would be do. Those types of creature features still even exists. I gotta say.

Tyler comes in thinking. He is going to be the next great scare. And that's i mean that's the whole plot of this episode. Is him having to find out. Where are you kidding me. That's not were doing anymore. I thought we scare we scare because we care what happened to that okay so when people saw the trailer for this i did see some trailer reactions in some people saying well. This is awesome. That monsters inc is gang sequel disney. Plus we're getting the further adventures zab. What the original cast along with new characters. Okay and even look at focus on the newcaster. Ben feldman i mean i'll say he provides an excellent voice like he makes tyler testament very distinct curator with his like his delivery and everything. I mean him. I mean he's basically playing the avatar for people who don't remember the first monsters zinc movie or they haven't seen it. They skipped it for the sequel like experiencing all this for the first time. I think that's kind of cool about this even know it's something we've seen before in a lot of movies and shows okay you you could say all right what what's new about this. But he's a great actor. I mean he's been in co classic movies like cloverfield so to have them go voice a monster monsters at work and be the main character because this is his story more than it has sally and bike. They're pretty much the main supporting cast. I think that could be cool events what i really do like about. This is that tyler is cert of light. You know those when you go into a new job. There's always going to be that one job you go to where everybody who's been there for a while just decides and make a fool out of you for no reason and that's kind of part of the fun here is that he is kind of creeped out by all the his co workers who have done this for awhile and they're serve like making fun of him for not seeing the get the memo. I feel bad for him. 'cause this dream all this time and he's actively trying to understand that everything he worked so hard for is not exactly what it is anymore. He's not exactly a villain. Even that may be preceded by what has original tensions versus what the company wants to do. There could be a villain in the show for what i know. But in the premiere episode they don't focus on that and honestly i would be fine if there wasn't a villain i mean if you're going to have a villain in this please for the love of.

Even you would admit in your deepest darkest time you would admitted it's your it's your lowest you rebound so hot so i'm ready for big rebound you this ball. Yesterday i shaved my head every day every day. Now don't she don't shave your head every day. New hewlett balder needed. I shaved my head this morning. But you don't do that every day because you get a haircut at the great clips. Every six weeks at the special special. You bought the special at home at home makes sense. It saves you a lot of money. Because i just take a lot of skill to actually do what i'm doing. Get out of time but nevertheless special. What six dollars. And then the beard trims and other buckner quarter and like a beer. The beer looks good. Great thanks yeah. I just i. I noticed in boulder today was yesterday. Okay well maybe it's because you know we don't record until the afternoon. Yeah and so bad. Let's talk about this tape. How you feel it shatner. It's one more you wants. it's it's fun. I wish there was more william shatner. I wish there was more christopher. Lloyd yeah i think that's the only downside is there's not enough like the lead male actor you don't like the lead male actor i mean he. He's probably human. I don't like his character in the movie personally. Ear tastes me. I don't know why here taking me in this movie that much. It just seems like he a lot. Put the movie man words. Christmas time traveling for my david. I was gonna say. Michael lloyd webber michael stahl david. Okay l. always mum for us Michael stahl been anymore marks. Can you look that up. Well sure i want to be clear. I don't like his character. Install david he doesn't pay isn't like you has not david. You're in one of his favorite movies cloverfield. He is great cloverfield. What does he in cloverfield. I. he's one of the guys that runs around a lot He's in no. I think this is how this sure he gets killed. In cloverfield heidel c. he's episode of. Don't trust the b in apartment. Twenty three got that clip. Just be so. I'm be actual saying don't trust the b. Yeah you were saying. Don't trust or there's another. There's a real. There's a real you wait the bumblebee in building room. Twenty three okay. And i'm telling some somebody walked in referring to your cells. Don't trust me. it's like you'd be like don't trust the pain that you're talking to third person. trust me. don't trust the b. I mean the be obvious. So obviously shatner and christopher lloyd are wonderful in this movie i did feel like the rest of the movie just was kind of it never found its footing for me I i agree. I didn't like the guy. I also didn't know who i was supposed to be rooting for in the movie i found both at the two leads. Relatively unlikable in this movie. And i didn't like the resolution either but getting christopher lloyd and a time travel movie years after back to the future and hearing him. Make a joke about time travel. I mean that's worth every penny. But overall i did find the movie a bit underwhelming and especially for a hall of fame movie which i usually thoroughly enjoy and so i would just say underwhelmed. I was also under owned by the christmas. I actually at one point forgot. It was a christmas movie. They bring forget so underwhelmed as a hall of fame movie underwhelmed as a time travel movie but overjoyed to have christopher lloyd in another time. Travel movie if that makes sense. That's where i'm at with this. I would say on one side of the coin. You get christopher lloyd and william shatner christopher lloyd. He's in a movie called. Nobody with bob odenkirk. Christopher lloyd has mid eighties and he just straight steals the show. He's super dynamic and fund on the other side. You have a movie where they make a female protagonist apologize for getting excited about career advancement. And i'd at yale at yale. I don't know how you reconcile that in. Two thousand fifteen in two thousand five and nine hundred ninety five. I don't know how you do it. Like she basically has to go through this whole thing to realize that she was shouldn't have been as excited about the chance of a lifetime to get a book published and to have an associate professorship at yale. I just at the whole movie. I felt like the guy was the bad guy and i know that that wasn't what they were going for. It's there's not a lot of christmas in the middle of this movie. There's a lot of weight what's including the fact that her.

Meal emil yovich. Yeah yeah yeah. That's coming out. i thought it was. Oh okay i kinda lost forgotten. I kinda fell off your rate or a little bit dates all the time with these. Keep up anymore. It's like okay. Well they're releasing it. Then then they change it and like whoa. What happened with this shit. Come on oh yeah hate this all. Stick to the schedule folks. St this schedule and i thought the Godzilla king kong was coming out really soon since the trailer. But okay but it's martin martin but i hear before we did. The trailer would have been out. He's usually trailers are out like six months before they're released some kind of form trailer. And i had nothing in this movie and a teaser. Thought they had a teaser ahead. A tiny little teaser. Head like that but that was for. Hbo max and it was just the a scene king kong just about hit godzilla cuts. I see that's the only footage that was around was like what's going on with this movie. Were the trailer did a great job of building the hype on it and then they paid off with the trailer which was actually really decent. And so i was i was like cooked. I'm like did do it any special Famous director for this movie or not that. I'm aware of of nobody that i know of is in this movie. But then there's nobody as far as your king kong godzilla come on. Yeah that's true that's all you need. You don't really need a shot of king kong jumping off the aircraft carrier while godzilla doing his fire breath. His trevor dann flame thing. Oh my god yeah. It was all die hard. Because he's jumping off the building. And i heard it was kind of like same expression. That's true yeah hong diehard. It's gonna be great. It's going to be interesting to see if they act. If one does fall there's going to be interesting to see if they do that now. Have they done this before. Like i said before on the last podcast they did have a movie called godzilla vs king kong. Okay i've got brain damage to so they did do a movie. And how long ago was this was a while ago was like back in the sixties a japanese movie of course with all the other godzilla movies. Because i've been watching those movies lately. Because i was like. Oh yeah can you know safer but anyway At the end of that King kong and godzilla the rest. They're fighting and they ended up falling into the sea. Oh that's right into the seat and the up and it just happens to be king kong. So you're swimming. That king kong one. But you don't know if god zillow died because he never got it got it okay. That was just an open ending. Okay so did you watch any movies over the weekend Besides just godzilla movies those about it. That's all you'd okay. And i heard it out on godzilla film godzilla movie. Some of them are. Because i was a kid and i'm watching his movies going. I watch these movies because some member cannot But it was just cool to see guys will destroy stuff. And that's all you're watching for wasn't about plot or anything like that. 'cause they're all you know japanese and subtitled and everything just kind of ramble on and stuff. But yeah i did watch the original the original godzilla but the remake. It's all part of the you know the newer films. So the the first guide zillow and then there was you know of monsters and then Skull island so the first godzilla. I watched that with matthew broderick yet not with matthew broderick I forget the guy's name but he was in Who's in it really But anyway. I watched that. It's a really good really. I don't know if you've seen it but it's really good if you haven't seen it zillah it's great fantastic what year. It's relatively new because it's all part of the series that's coming out right now. Okay okay. That was the first of the three films that are already out. So what made me think of this monsters attacking city. Did you ever see star cloverfield right. Yes it is you like it. I did and i didn't Because a lot of it was key in. They're trying to do like documentary trying to make it look like it's real footage and all that stuff right and that was about the when all that was like brand new and yeah in state of the art and all that other crap and i was like i i like it but it certain points in the film just like blair witch with the shaky camera just makes me sick after a like bob oda did you see the one with John goodman a second one. I did not cloverfield lane. I think it's really good. I liked. I thought it was good. Yeah it didn't look too interested in it because it was like you takes place in a bunker right and she's trapped on l. It's it's tension filled by like. Yeah he's he's a bastard or he's the son of a bitch and he's good you know you think of him as roseanne's bubbly husband on and all this other stuff that the deal. Yeah he's a real asshole. Oh it's good. I liked it. Yeah so Yeah yeah yeah. Yeah oh yeah yes i. I was hoping watch more. But i just didn't get to anymore movies so i'm kind of disappointed. I thought you're gonna come back and say you know this is moving alice man. I wanna watch unhinged. Yeah and then you still can't rent come compla- no it's by only still. I really wanna see that one. You know it's like ben affleck twenty bucks or something like that and it's like twenty bucks. Yeah even diana. She might watch that one with me.

You gotta come with these movies. Like goes moving. So yeah it's gonna talk and then if it doesn't then unpleasantly surprised and you know i guess that's what i gotta do boy.

"Right shoulder. It's causing some delays is people stopped to kind of take a look in traffic is slow as a result of that from about Green River in Santa Monica 10 eastbound, a Cloverfield Boulevard. Some slow traffic all the way to the five from NPR News. This is all things considered. I'm Ari Shapiro and I'm Elsa Chang. Demolition is a common occurrence in China in its countryside and shanty towns where people often live in poverty, But Beijing is now demolishing large swamps of its wealthy suburbs. Who's well connected residents are protesting. It's the latest sign of rising to satisfaction with China's government from unlikely sources. MPR's Emily Fang reports the 3000 or so families that chose to live in the same tongue. Village community cherish the peace of the mountains nearby. Now their days were punctuated by the noisy reminder that sound home will soon disappear. Demolition crews and about 300 security guards circle the sometime complex each day, knocking down the unoccupied houses while keeping those who refuse to leave indoors. You must recall Yusef Jaan. One of those residents gives me a tour of his tasteful three stories. Stonehouse. The local government has already cut off his electricity and water to kick him out and then knock down his house without paying him. So John has stored huge tanks of drinking water around his home boxes of dried noodles litter his marble floors. He's prepared for a siege way, bought dozens of fire extinguishers to use as weapons. A zoo. We prepared a protest. Giang is not your average petitioner. He's a cosmopolitan entrepreneur. And while the decades of China's economic opening have been kind to him, the lack of checks and balances under the Chinese Communist Party scares him. You know what? We're protecting the rule of law from the Communist Party since they won't be reasonable. On Lee, the Nazi fascists committed these kinds of crimes. We think our current government has gone mad. They're out of control. Sometimes villas is one of more than 100 complexes. Beijing wants to wipe out You're the 30. Years ago, Beijing permitted the rural land to be developed into Villa's. They wanted to attract wealthy urban dwellers and their money to Beijing's poor suburbs, and it worked. Some tongue became one of the best known villages, famous actors and retired officials bought houses in the complex. Then, in October, the same government posted the notice is sure that she ha! The towns of government gave us three days to demolish our own homes By December, the bulldozers have rolled in to demolish them for us. This is another song Tongue resident who quickly ushered us into her dark house. Her power has been cut off, too. She and her husband want to remain anonymous because they could lose their jobs in the Chinese military. This woman called the police, her local officials. Everyone simply ignored her. The district court refused to hear her case. So much for entered eight years. How does our house become an illegal structure overnight with zero explanation or compensation in 2018, Chinese leaders season, Ping ordered the destruction of more than 1000 villas built on environmentally protected land in the tingling mountains. Since then, these demolitions have grown and have been folded into a larger anti corruption crackdown. There's a political cost the loss of faith in the Communist Party leadership from influential members of China's private sector, even government Qadri's notions of gender booming but I can't wrap my head around this. I never thought the Communist Party of China would treat us this way. Others are adept at using the party's own language against it. One of them is Young Yushin, a law professor at China State run University of Political Science and Law, He argues defending his house is actually supporting the Communist Party's goals.

Like superman lives like the nick cage one. So they chronicle to and chronicle to starts with these two people who have some kind of grudge against matt who survived the first one and they build like mech armor to fight him as like kind of cool. Like so like donna justice. Because that's kind of what that sounds like to me is dawn of justice But you know all in all. I enjoy the movie you know. It's unfortunate. what has happened to like josh. Josh trank career. I think he's kind of blown himself. Up annan marylanders. Yeah and max.
