"You did. Did you know this? I don't know if I knew this. Remind me. It's been many years. So explain what your background is really quick for those that don't know us. On for the last ten years about, I've been doing locations, scouting, and working as a location assistant. So you kind of stay at the location that you generally found for the director and then you make sure everything runs smoothly. So you're working on? I covered the name. I'm not telling anyone. Come on. The hit show The Rookie, take the tape off. Let's see it. No, I'm not doing it. You have more electrical tape right there. You can just take this stuff from your giants. My new name is tape head and I like to keep tape on everything. Wait, why don't you want people to know it's The Rookie? I don't like to advertise, and I also was doing something with a film where I couldn't show the logo. So I just kept it like this though. I like it better. It just says. All right, so back to you. Yeah, I worked on a film and I want to say it was like 5 years ago and it was called mordecai starring Johnny Depp and Gwyneth Paltrow. The code names and nobody knew what it was was called mustache. Do you remember this? No, not really. I barely did. I was like, have I met Johnny Depp before? I said, oh yeah, I worked with him. So did you get to talk to him? A little bit. I thought he was pleasant and but I didn't, you know, in the location job and especially that show, you're like running around like crazy and a lot of times I was jumping ahead. So everybody would, they call it land, the whole crew would land and everyone would land and you stay there and make sure it's all, you know, you prepped it well and that everyone's settled in and then I would bounce to find that next thing and set it up and so I often didn't spend a lot of time on set. Did they call it bounce? Do you land and bounce? I bounced. Yeah, I just said that. It was mordecai, it came out in 2015. I did not do well. Oh really? Juggling angry Russians the British am I 5 and an international terrorist debonair art dealer and part time rogue Charlie mordecai. All right, well, you can get up from there. Okay. Yeah. So I remember he was very nice that we filmed it at one of my locations was a dirty hotel room and it was somewhere like up a magic mountain in half an hour from Hollywood in the sticks and it was a dirty hotel room and we had a scene there and he showed up four hours late and I was in the hallway in the executive producer was like this guy. She goes, I can't do this. I can't do this anymore. This is insane. And I heard her saying, how could we get, I don't know. Get out of it..

The show's run where the instant fame went to someone's head. I feel like maybe we all had like a little version of like our own little moment at the beginning. But i do love that. We always checked in and we continue to. I mean bobby started a group. Thread called the fab five before any of us were casted which was either some kind of a premonition or like deeply delusional but it worked out because we all got the and so we all really do like a weird boy band syndrome.

I'm just thinking of all the grossest thing that would smell thank you very much. I think one of the things people are marveling at about your your portrayal of tammy faye. Is that you really humanize you. Don't play her as a cartoon character. I have to assume that was a huge goal of yours. Oh yeah because. I saw the documentary in two thousand twelve and i was so blown away with her compassion and her love what she did and i kind of realized like why do i only know her her mascara and like the jokes. People made over right so i wanted to really show her true story. And you did. Ryan b wants to antony center beverly hills fan. What are you feeling about. Erica jane this season did she know it's been such a ride. I feel like she. I wanna give her credit but like i feel like she had to know something. There must have been some kind of a red flag. I don't believe that there was just like complete like lack of knowledge of anything going on. It's interesting because it's very similar to tammy faye bakker right at the time right because so i have difficulty with lock. Lobbying in the wife of someone who's being tried it once she's charged with something. Then i can say okay. Maybe there's guilt there. But i i don't want to speculate on whether or not she's guilty. When there's really no evidence to prove that way i change my answer with. So why am i going after her. You're absolutely right. I mean we didn't go after just said you thought maybe she knew something. Yeah it was. Just that thing that i read about like the money going into the right part jessica jordan l. Said i watch. Elizabeth olson's hot ones interview where she talked about witnessing naomi. Watts getting assaulted by security guard at a fashion show and you came in to defend her. What is your recollection of that night. One hundred percent true. Is this huge guy who was manhandling. Her and i stood up and was like get away from her in front of everyone and then the show started and everyone acted like it didn't happen. Wow and did you. Are you buddies with her after that we kind of became buddies because we were both like what just happened and then she thanked me for going zero dark thirty on him. I i love that. Wow that is very. that's very kind of you. That's your reactionary. I'm ready for a fight when i fight. Where are you from san francisco. Cal san francisco so ready for a fight so you so you so you have the same boyfriend now that you had bravo con. Oh yeah you said you're okay. Good things are going swelled. They're very well any plans of marriage. I don't know it's a long term in okay. The pet survived and survive. We didn't live together before the pandemic and he flew to austin to visit me while i was filming queer eye and he was meant to say for two days but the pandemic so we ended up moving in as a result. We were one of those relationships that really forge right and for now. We're we're like we're we're raising a dog together. That's like that's where we're at okay. Good but i love him very dog next up baby. That's what happened to me by the way. Congratulations on the emmy win for queer bank. Let's take some questions for virtual vans.

"Learn stuff that was making people blush. Yeah white rice says line. Hey man that's a little too far buddy l. that you want to it down a little bit. They're strict pick. Never heard anybody say before. Like on with a mike in front of them. I've never. I didn't even know that was a thing who came up with the idea that why why slave owner should have reparations. And i did get reparations though. That's the one that's actually happened. Is that after slavery light. The government paid the slave owners for the loss of property. So that's so now you uneducated and on top of that is i dog. You black bra like this like this is going to help you this. This is a pick me situation. You like pick me. Please is broken. Nobody nobody was someone that would disrespect themselves to a level like that. I mean you. Don't i don't know if you want to be around people that will want you to disrespect yourself like that you know. But that's what's sad about the whole scenario is there were so many republicans in my state that were like. We'll look how un racist i am. Because i'm going to vote for a black guy. Person you guys have picked is like actively saying racism is over. I'm sorry i have to black kids in california. It's not over here still dealing with it just is our i. I've said this before. Well maybe this is a terrible idea. But i'm just going out there. Like i feel like discourse just keeps i. It's it's a race to the bottom every right because like when people say reasonable things. Nobody really cares. Because that's it's honestly it's not as interesting right like it's more fun to talk about. You know things that are said or done. That are outrageous. Because it's either it's either gonna like inflame some sort of opinion. You already have or just funny right. I mean it's pretty much in in one of those two things like one of the interesting things about how kinda media's evolved in like podcasting has come along that it's really hard for people to get like you know long-form discussion and just you know just kind of try to outrageous each other. It only lasts like five minutes before. They're just normal people talking why he just doesn't work in the format for people just to be screaming at each other. I really think if if if we had like political debates that were more like kind of podcast form. I honestly think you would get people asking having real conversations about issues instead of just saying inflammatory things to try to get news coverage because they're the reality is like some of these candidates just want coverage and don't care if it's good or bad because ultimately people are going to vote for whoever has an rfid beside their names and so name recognition is important. So there's gonna say outrageous things whether it's negative or positive where you had people just dialoguing and actually talking like humans. I think it would subvert a lot of this and larry elder. He is a provocateur. I mean that's his whole thing. He's always been saying outrageous things for press. Totally dressy tau. Jesse is on social media similar talking head saying crazy things yup very much a running for political office in my state to say. Jesse is the white.

Us has been a crazy place or the last couple of years. And i live in california and often tell myself you're in california. It's like you know it's different. And this recall election. Had be pretty scared because i think just would have lost all faith in humanity if that man was if larry elder became our governor. I mean he's so bad. He's so bad in so many ways and i actually think there were people that were for the recall. Who then once larry elder looked like the outcome. Where like never mind.

Andrew garfield co stars as jim baker. Tammy's husband who people of a certain age like us josh. Remember as one of the most prominent televangelists of nineteen eighty and nineteen eighty. Nine baker was sentenced to forty five years in prison for fraud. This movie is directed by michael showalter. Who made the very good two. Seventeen rom com. The big sick. The eyes of tammy faye came up a couple of weeks ago. During our fall movie preview. You have seen the movie and as i alluded to. We lived through the eighties. The bakers were inescapable in popular culture. At seem does the movie convinced that there is more there was more to jim. Tammy faye than we remember or what we saw in parodies from the time i mean it had to for me because my only point of reference was jan hooks portraying. Tammy faye bakker. On saturday night. Live visiting the church lady. I think phil hartmann was was jim baker. Actually so i didn't really know much beyond that of the story. I mean would have been a little kid at that time.

It's go to melissa mccarthy and godspeed like i get it so unlike way down that list In terms of something like that. And for me. I want to kind of go like where the great scripts are. I'm very happy to play. Celia foote or tammy faye because there's a sense of outrageousness that unlike silliness. I don't normally get to do. But maybe i don't need to be made of comedy when you have like melissa mccarthy out there right right and where are you at now with. We kind of eluded to the dark phoenix situation. Which we don't necessarily need to go into deeper deportees on but you have you you've been able to manage for the most i think pretty well. I kind of like doing the big stuff. The martian interstellar And and also staying trudy larussa really odds for Driven smaller films That being said like. I know for years we've talked about on. I talked about with every actor.

Is there a reason like it. Just never happened was ever give me a super villain. I don't wanna be superhero. Because here's something earlier doing like ten films.

"Should we oscar definitely have talked about this okay Okay not a Not the most fun topic for some certain reasons. Perhaps yeah i don't have it works. Do enough yacht. The i mean the reality is our situations. Were very different My situation i think studio was bought at a certain point. I didn't even know what my characters name was. Until i saw the what's happening. It was using thing but simon kuenssberg who directed. It is an incredible human being. And i've worked with him again. I love him. Everybody loves simon. Don't know bad words to say there is. Is there a commonality. Among because beyond oscar there are several actors that you return to over the years mcevoy edgar. Like you've got these guys that have good saiga. Canon michael shannon. What's about to happen is you're getting the scoop right now. I'm gonna tell you literally scoop so george jones and tammy net. He's playing ocean. And you know. Mike was in a band before like he was music like as arguably his i love in some ways and we we did take shelter. I took his cd and put it in the jukebox. At the small bar in ohio. He's like such an amazing singer. So yeah we're we're about to do that and john hill. Coats directing accepts Fan tastic music are yours. I just. I just chatted with michael person and while you wow again as much as no. You're you're my favorite now. But he did. When i mentioned we're going to the filmography and i mentioned how much i still love. It admire take shelter. I think is react. I don't give a fuck what you think. Josh and i knew where i stood with mike after all these he really does care. Though he talked about you will not actually shown screensaver on his phone. Don't even tease. Don't make fun run making fun. We aren't we've proceeded to texting in our relationship. So i feel like we're getting closer to matrimony. Don't tell my wife exactly careful anyone speaking the marriage on this. I'm thankful that i watched five episodes. My wife our marriage is intact but there are like there are certain kinds of films and tv that can test a relationship can push buttons and this is one. I would somewhat unsteady relationship. I don't know if this one's going to be the best atomic for them or it actually is the perfect medicine right usually on city relationships. You're not communicating enough settle. Maybe this'll be like you don't feel like that they're terrible. You don't a book like yeah. We're we're doing great compared to this couple. You're actually the first one when it came out. It inspired a there was a huge flexible divorces. yes so what was What what was your idea of marriage based on film and tv when you were growing up like with do you remember. Like was there. Kramer versus kramer award the rosa. Were those things in your mind. What or honestly. I never wanted to get married. I really like i'm still. I know i'm married. I'm super happy. I love my husband but it was never something i was going to do. It was a contractual thing. You just said. I really do. Love i really. I'm happy i'm married. But i would be Equally happy to not be married because for me. It's not about a convention. It's not about like an obligation. It just feels like so old fashioned to like do that and also especially for women and it feel. It doesn't feel like it's the most modern so your wife here we don't mind she's drawing papers. What's the point you know and so reality to like if someone watches the series and it inspires that have divorced more power to you. I mean we're not in a happy situation. So i'm all about everyone being free because when you can love without owning someone that's real love speaking of super solid marriages. Let's talk about the is tammy faye for a little bit so on their good job. I've been doing this awhile on another amazing performance. Honestly you kill it in this one. I love andrew garfield always fall now lousy house again. Both of you guys on paper. I'm apparently shitting casting agent. But i would never put you guys in the top ten or one hundred to play these roles and yet you are the only ones out that could have done it. Talk to me about why you were. You said you saw the which was a great docked by the way. Was that the thing you fell in love with an inspired you from toco. Yeah i was really inspired by that. It's the st peters interview that to me her doing that space Steve peters interview. She brings the sky on her show. He's gay he has aids and she said this is at a time when the government won't talk about aids and they're being communities are dying and they're being looked at people who were suffering relooked at as like lepers and no one wants to talk to them and she says we as christians are supposed to everyone and yet we're we're so afraid of an aids patient that we won't put her arms around them and tell them that we care and then she's like i love you if i wanna put my arms around you. And then she also says when she asked him about coming out and he says his mom and dad were sad but they told them that they loved him no matter what and she's like you know. Thank god because we as mom and dad's are supposed to love through anything in. That's the way with jesus and it was so punk. Rock said at that time. Because you know televangelism evangelicals were all white men who Were dictating very conservative. exclusive way to the holy land. This is the one path. Sars is the only way you do. And tammy faye was like everyone is deserving of love. everyone is deserving of god's grace and it to me is. That's the movie that needed to be told it's really striking. I threw that stuff. I remember it from a certain perspective and like watching certain aspects of for instance the montage at certain point we kind of like herding. The but of all the late night comedy. It's pretty profound. It's actually had a similar moment recently. Watched the first episode of the new The rhymer v american history. Eight of the monica lewinsky. There's a whole similar kind of narrative. There where you just see just how It was so skewed and how they were just made to be the martyr in a horrible way Did your opinion of her yoga. Have you absolutely yeah. Well no i was gonna say and just you know the stuff that's in the film the stuff that we could get the rights to tip of the iceberg. I'm sure that oh yeah. Yeah aren't eager to be like here. Show me abuse this is. This is stuff that i said so imagine how much stuff is out there and like the things that they said about this.

Did you talk to leave after you took on this role and pick her brain bit or was that also kind of weird and awkward or watch. I sent her. Because i know the thing about leaving. This is how i took her in the inspiration of her with me when i played this role. Leave is so incredibly sensitive. It's almost like she doesn't have skin. She's just like raw. I'll like vulnerable. She feels everything. It's beautiful and is as soon as i started and i even posted on instagram. I was like there will only ever be one marianne and it was a picture. Lebron i i just.

I don't know if this is from the original series or something. You guys decided on the fly to do in this one. But there's some really interesting moments of kind of like breaking the fourth wall and showing the behind the scenes stuff throughout little bits. Not a ton but like enough that really captures kind of what you're saying about your relationship with auster that like obviously this is soot such intimate material so raw. It's so profoundly honest To see you guys. And i don't think it's usually the slow to talk about the encino of a series but like there's like good to see you guys off camera essentially and to see the bond you to have is really touching and really like you do see that intimacy both on screen and then in those moments off Did that i guess how did that. Come about to capture those moments or what was crazy is so i met with the guy about whether or not i join because it was so last minute. It was one of the best directors meetings. I've ever had said yet. We started rehearsals three days later and we were like in my house. Hug guys. House oscars houses like the three of us just rehearsing and i think it was like week. Two of rehearsal guy just said to us. This is so beautiful watching the two together because we would joke that we were each other's acting coaches. If there was that. I didn't get he would help me through. And he wouldn't tell me how to do it. He just ask me questions like why. Don't you like this. What is what are you pushing against and So guy came to us one day. Because i have an idea i want to show you guys because whatever this is the two of you is good. The rea the reason for the series in some sense even though it was a last minute chance that we're doing. We did this together and so he planned it all out I mean the wedding ring at the end. That's all like i asked my my husband's like us a fake wedding ring. But like me coming onset taking off my fake husband reading ringing in the putting on mira's wedding ring all of that stuff a guy had Planned out in the end. They just said we're just going to roll the camera and follow you guys and it literally was As kind of like sankoh by to each other. It's really beautiful. It even cynic like myself. It's kind of. It's very touching to watch We've danced around and there's not much to to really set up for the show. It's kind of like implicit in the title. It is essentially it five hours Chronicling over a number of years. This intimate marriage this relationship through ups and downs Talked me a little bit about equip We talked about the oscar relationship. I'm curious going back. You knew from juilliard. Correct you one of the cool kids boyfriends. He wasn't the cool kid come My boyfriend from college. He was his friend good friend so the great thing about our friendship is i got to see all the sides of oscar that as a girl you wouldn't normally see because i was hanging out with the boys. I really like know a lot about him to the do you have the best hair back down or has that come with age. Maybe that's come with age. He's got pretty good floppy hair now right quitting impressive.

Ava Movie Review : Jessica Chastain powers this moderately thrilling assassin saga
"I'm Madeleine brand. I am ready to review some films of two of my favorite favorite critics and two of my favorite humans all time alongside early and Dave White film critics for the rap and host of the podcast, Linoleum knife. How you guys Hello. All right. Let's talk first about Eva. Jessica Chastain stars as international assassin, but a job goes wrong. Here is some of the trailer. I know you like Eva. She's a liability. No, she's best to breathe. I recruited her trainers talking She's always been jukes favor, but she's a loose cannon and dangerous of the organization. Alonzo. What did you think so? Yeah, this is, you know, typical international assassin and runs afoul of the corporation. And of course, she must be closed. Um, why is it that only the female international assassins also have family issues, whereas the male international assassins were always completely cut off from their own feelings and from their own families of their own pasts and all that stuff. Really The most interesting stuff about Eva is that a bow, played by Jessica Chastain comes home to Boston, where she has to confront her fractured relationships with her sister, played by just Wexler and her mother, played by Gina Davis. On Of course, Gina Davis was an international female assassin in the long kiss. Good night, so that's a nice little Bow on this, and the scenes between Gina Davis and Jessica Chastain are so crackling in a Confrontational, dysfunctional family cannot away that you kind of wish this had been a confrontational, dysfunctional family movie and not international Super Assasin movie. But I mean, it's a lot of that movie is has been made. It's called What ever happened to Baby Jane? Good points, But I mean, you know the The pieces in this are not bad, like the actual international Super assassin scenes are pretty well done. There's some pretty good action sequences. Maybe Not in like an atomic blonde kind of way. But still like when. When Jessica Chastain gets into a scrap with Colin Farrell or, you know, I mean, John Malkovich even gets into some violence in this movie. Those scenes are kind of fun, but then you gotta shift gears into Ava and her addictions and her family stuff, and it's like The movie is in all the lanes and it doesn't really ever quite nail any of them. So I maybe wish they had. They had taken off one piece of jewelry before leaving the house, you know, either lose one of reds here, Dave. Moments of cool, stabbing and kicking. Alleviating boredom. Unfortunately, they missed this golden opportunity to allow Gina Davis To be revealed. To still be her long kiss Goodnight character, passing the mantle of super assassin. Down to her daughter that they did They do this. They did not do this. Unfortunately, if you're going to make a movie with a plot, as wrote, and by the numbers as this You got to juice it up somehow, You know, it's not. It's not enough that the Jessica Chastain isn't a long red gown. You know, stabbing and kicking and shooting. Okay,

A Review of 'It: Chapter 2'
"Today. We're discussing. Sometimes it comes back for you where it's more boring name it. Chapter Two starring Jessica chastain James mcevoy Bill Hater Isaiah Mustafa Jay Ryan James Ran Soon Andy Bear. Some of these people have to just be happy their names on a poster oester. I mean who the hell some of these guys the old spice guy because his name above the title and Bill Skarsgard as pennywise directed by a Andy Machete this is Arnie Coz now playing and the fun is just beginning Ed Stewart and this is the host who still insists he sees the ghost Jacob it aftermath aftermath wow as Stephen King Fan as somebody really into Stephen King around the time this came out of you. Remember dark tower came out right before this. I was actually buying a couple of Stephen King Trotsky to go on my bookshelf with all my Stephen King Books. They're made like a Jack torrens action figuring things and I'm like you know they don't make too much of this so I'll get a couple of these and put them up there. It exploded merchandising for every Stephen King thing. There's a hot wheels Christine. There are more pennywise figures that I can count what I'm not kidding. Wow Yeah so ooh many pennywise toys of all price points this has opened a floodgate on Stephen King that has never been opened before merchandising him to the Gen xers. I think so what does that mean. I mean we all know what merchandise meant and fanning the love of Star Wars. What would it mean to hold a bobblehead. Ah pennywise Ernie called GEN-X. You GotTa Buy Your Co.. POPs gets by stuff by toys by Chachis of stuff you like and Stephen King's. The big caught thing now so let's just how the market is. Is it selling yeah okay. I mean I didn't buy any of it. The moment you know what I liked about it when it was niche and there was like two things I loved it when every week. I'm getting an email this new pennywise doll for two hundred dollars. I'm like fuck it pennywise varian Syrian funk. Oh pops are there. Oh my God so many long tongue pennywise bloody pennywise smiling pennywise frowning penny wise spider pennywise okay this kind. It helps me understand why you were so into skarsgard. They've really been able to magnify what was a very small part of the film really wasn't in that many scenes and by my impression Russian he was only good in about half of them so how he has lived on in the minds of the viewer is through merchandise he made an impression he scarred us and and now two years later he's coming back to finish the job yeah and again. I'd equate to a Freddy Kruger. I'd think it's the closest thing we've had to a horror icon. In a long time and Freddie never had that much screen time it was people talking about Freddie and Robert Englund Cameo films. You know so and I think merchandising we've made every Jason we've made every Friday. Oh my God pennywise we have something new to sell but the highest grossing nightmare on Elm Street movie wouldn't begin to touch the gross of of this fill it goes well beyond the reach of a horror audience. I mean this. There were people in my neighborhood I walk my dog and churchgoing folk who I would never suspect suspect to have opened a cover of Stephen King said. Oh it's coming out soon people. I would not imagine demographics that do not see any other horror. Film are are coming out this weekend and why the impression I got was they really loved the kits. Yeah I think that I it was huge and almost every viewing was sold allow. When I went to go see this Friday night theaters packed yeah you can keep going on about penny wise and I think you're right for a certain level of people that loves horror ICONOGRAPHY. That's a thing thing but I feel like in mass. The reason why this is so beloved because it goes those children were so good and it connected to childhood so well and that's the struggle of chapter or two. I know that the kids are coming back in some role but the torch is being passed. It will now be for new actors. That didn't even have the job when the first movie he came out. What's funny is before it chapter one came out the sequel was in pre production. You know the studio knew what they had right and so when they were you're doing pre release interviews with the cast they asked the young kids who would you like to play you and Young Beverly said Jessica chastain and that kind of makes sense I mean chastain had had worked with Michetti before and I mean how many red headed actress sent me as I mean. It's either her Dallas Broward Sophie Turner from X. Expend Dark Phoenix twenty seven years later. That's great highlight store here. Maybe and then Wolford said Bill Hater. Those actually happened yeah yeah. I don't know how much they had already envisioned for chapter to win. Two years ago it blew up. They had talked about it. The whole way through one is what it was. They kept saying if we do a two. Let's leave this hook here. Let's leave this here. Let's leave this vague enough here. They knew if the movie was successful while filming part one in sixteen. If this did well we would want to bring the kids back would want to have some flashbacks but we're gonNA focus mostly on the adults and they had vague the ideas but they did never script yeah they knew the parts of the book they had left behind and so that was a lot of material is a big ass book. They could make lots of movies out of what was remaining remaining of that but they didn't have a script. They didn't have a cast again. It wasn't called Chapter One. They shape the experience as total you could just watch that movie the and be done and that was the studio's. Choice Warner Brothers did that the makers want to call it the losers club so that it had a hook there for a second one and and I think the compromise was chapter one at the end credits. I stand by that. I think that movie does work as a standalone if it had bombed and we never got chapter two I think that would still be a satisfying the movie as far as the art goes and I appreciate that I like it when movies tell a story instead of teas another film to come out at some other point I also think I think that there is a lot of ret conning done in the film. We're here to talk about today. Oh yeah they didn't create a first chapter that set up a lot of things they're we're going to do in this film. That's why there's so many flashbacks yeah they had to correct it by bringing the kids back and they did d. h. them with CGI because kids at that age you know two three years later look very different. I noticed height differences. I noticed like some who were shorter than beverly in part one out taller than beverly only in part to but they made the faces look younger yeah. I noticed that at times. They look a little bit plastics. Oh okay that makes sense because they D- aged Regata de age. These teenage kids not only like that but I noticed some of the lip sync work. That ain't his voice. You know your voice changes to three years later. They can't say the lines like they would've in the summer of one thousand nine hundred nine so oh yeah you just get people that kinda sound like them but are not them. Jack Dillon Grazer was the one who looked most distracting to me like for some reason his face just look blake an old man made into a child and but this is expected to be huge based off the first one I mean the first one broke records chapter. Two is breaking a record. It's the Whitest ever released for an R rated film with over forty five hundred screens in the US alone and they were saying hundred ten million two hundred twenty million this weekend. It's already falling short of expectations though it is it made less in preview screenings than the first film. It's estimated now. It's going to make less over the weekend than the first film. What did the first film do. The first film got one hundred thirty five million the first weekend. I guess I didn't see that opening weekend side there. Wasn't the big crowd. I didn't realize I was so big right away. I thought that kind of had a slow burn so it's looking like this will be perhaps second-biggest and they're now readjusting estimates down to ninety ninety million. Maybe as low as eighty million compared to one hundred thirty five million for the sequel. I gotta think some of it is you don't see kids and is not an eighties period piece. The nostalgia culture isn't there to draw in the big audiences. I know when I saw it chapter one opening weekend. Neri empty seat in the house. When I saw this opening night it was about a two thirds full on the APP but a lot of people didn't show up like all the seats around me were Phil on the APP and people just didn't come. I think that's the result of that. AMC stubs premier as you can buy tickets for no money so you reserve seats and like I'm decided not to go interesting house in the same screening as you Arnie for Thursday I max we didn't see each other until after after it was all over with but I did also go back and saw matinee on Friday. There was almost nobody there so I have not had the experience that this is something the masses asses are turning out to but the numbers are saying something different even at one hundred million if that's less than expected. That's an amazing opening. That's huge yeah for an R rated Orville. Matt is amazing and like I said packed when I saw it. I do wonder when the reviews started coming out and I always avoid reuse but you always see headlines in that. There were some concerns turns and I wonder if that scares some people away like they were not buzzing like with chapter one. I didn't hear anything I didn't see any reviews before going in but this movie cost cost twice as much as the first one bigger actors in it so if it makes less this one costs seventy million dollars they had budget built in for de aging kids and they had named named actors who we know and some of whom need to redeem themselves from an earlier x men film this summer and needs a show they still can do good budget built in so they didn't have that crap. Raffia from the TV series and it's also longer they can't screen it as many times in a day because it adds. It feels like another hour. It's not quite that it's more more like forty five minutes but still it's two hours fifty minutes. It's almost three hours. We're talking to vendors level length here well. The first chapter one was also over two two hours but this goes beyond that by at least forty minutes so again for lots of reasons. If you know the book and hold the opinion I do the best stuff.
