Get ready for a thrilling Friday the 13th special on this episode of Pop Culture Weekly with Kyle McMahon! Joined by the fantastic Amanda Baez, we dive headfirst into the eerie allure of this iconic horror date. 2024 has been a banner year with three Friday the 13ths, and we unpack why this day holds such a place in our hearts. Beyond the spooky, we hit all the high notes in music, talking about fresh singles from The Weeknd and Mike Posner, and new albums from powerhouse artists like Miranda Lambert, Eminem, and Yolanda Adams. Plus, we tease you with what's new in cinema, from Blumhouse's "Speak No Evil" to a sneak peek at Kevin Smith's latest, The 4:30 Movie.

Our What We Watched segment is bursting with excitement as we break down the magic of Beetlejuice and its sequel, exploring Tim Burton’s genius. We share our mixed emotions about Twisters and its attempt to capture the stormy majesty of the original. And Amanda discusses Joaquin Phoenix’s mesmerizing portrayal in The Joker and the anticipation of Lady Gaga stepping into Harley Quinn’s shoes in the sequel. We also discuss the chilling film "The Deliverance" on Netflix, praising the impressive performances and the compelling, culturally rich storyline crafted by Lee Daniels.

For horror enthusiasts, our deep-dive into the "Friday the 13th" franchise is a nostalgic trip down terror lane. From our visits to the real Camp Crystal Lake to dissecting the evolution of Jason Voorhees, we share a treasure trove of interesting tidbits and personal anecdotes. We look at the creative origins of the series’ iconic soundtrack and discuss the ups and downs of the franchise, including updates on the highly anticipated "Crystal Lake" prequel series.

And there's another Friday the thirteenth day coming in December.

16
00:01:01.560 --> 00:01:04.920
Oh really yeah? So I think it happens three times

17
00:01:04.920 --> 00:01:05.319
this year.

18
00:01:05.480 --> 00:01:06.120
Three times.

19
00:01:06.200 --> 00:01:10.640
Yeah. When was the first like March or something. I

20
00:01:10.680 --> 00:01:13.879
don't know, I'm bad at that, but obviously this is

21
00:01:13.879 --> 00:01:15.760
the second one, and then the third is in December.

22
00:01:16.040 --> 00:01:18.480
I was told by our friend Christa Cooper yesterday that

23
00:01:19.519 --> 00:01:23.599
Friday the thirteenth happened when the calendar starts on a

24
00:01:23.640 --> 00:01:24.719
Sunday for that month.

25
00:01:25.920 --> 00:01:28.120
Yeah, I vaguely remember her saying something like that.

26
00:01:28.480 --> 00:01:32.840
Yeah, I don't know if that's true. Yeah, yeah, me either.

27
00:01:33.159 --> 00:01:36.480
And you know, our producer would normally look it up,

28
00:01:36.480 --> 00:01:40.040
but I don't have a producer. But let's see. And

29
00:01:40.120 --> 00:01:44.760
it did start on a Sunday this month, and December

30
00:01:44.799 --> 00:01:47.640
actually starts on a Sunday, December first. Oh yeah, so

31
00:01:47.719 --> 00:01:51.239
maybe it's right. Who knows? But are you ready to

32
00:01:51.319 --> 00:01:54.079
jump in? Yeah, all right, let's jump in. So we're

33
00:01:54.079 --> 00:02:07.719
gonna start with what's out this week? So what's out

34
00:02:07.719 --> 00:02:12.319
this week? In singles? The Weekend, who I absolutely love.

35
00:02:12.360 --> 00:02:14.520
He has a new single called Dancing in the Flame,

36
00:02:15.039 --> 00:02:16.120
which have you heard it yet?

37
00:02:17.120 --> 00:02:18.800
Was that what you were playing earlier?

38
00:02:18.919 --> 00:02:22.199
Yeah? Yeah, I heard that. Yeah, it is so good.

39
00:02:22.280 --> 00:02:24.680
I love it. He and we're going to talk about

40
00:02:24.680 --> 00:02:29.599
this actually in a moment, but his new video for

41
00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:32.759
Dancing in the Flame was entirely filmed on an iPhone

42
00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:36.520
sixteen bro match Yeah, and the video is really really cool.

43
00:02:36.599 --> 00:02:39.360
So I love the Weekend And then Beautiful Day by

44
00:02:39.400 --> 00:02:43.199
Mike Posner, who I adore as a artist, as a songwriter,

45
00:02:43.240 --> 00:02:46.479
as a producer, as a poet, as a person. He's

46
00:02:46.479 --> 00:02:49.759
an amazing person. You can listen to my interview with

47
00:02:49.800 --> 00:02:52.680
Mike Posner. We had a forty five minute sit down

48
00:02:53.639 --> 00:02:58.120
last year or so. And the song is just inspiring

49
00:02:58.240 --> 00:03:02.520
and happy and catchy, and it's just everything I love

50
00:03:02.520 --> 00:03:07.240
about Mike Posner. So that's out. Then, in albums, Miranda

51
00:03:07.400 --> 00:03:12.639
Lambert has her new album Postcards from Texas. Eminem has

52
00:03:13.080 --> 00:03:15.800
released a new version of the Death of Slim Shady

53
00:03:15.919 --> 00:03:19.000
kupdi Grat album. I remember we talked about that, yeah

54
00:03:19.039 --> 00:03:23.159
when it came out. So this is the expanded Mourners Edition.

55
00:03:23.680 --> 00:03:29.080
Oh and the Expanded Mourners Edition features four new tracks.

56
00:03:29.439 --> 00:03:34.000
One is a skit and then three songs fuel the

57
00:03:34.039 --> 00:03:38.319
Shady Edition featuring West Side Boogie and Grip Like My

58
00:03:38.520 --> 00:03:43.719
s with fifteen after and the song Kyrie and Luca

59
00:03:43.879 --> 00:03:49.879
with two Chains. So I'm a big Eminem fan Marshall

60
00:03:49.879 --> 00:03:53.800
Mathers Slim Shady, so I will be. I think I

61
00:03:53.800 --> 00:03:58.080
already did add it to my you know, music library,

62
00:03:58.599 --> 00:04:01.840
So I'm excited to jump into this. And then Auntie

63
00:04:02.840 --> 00:04:07.800
Yolanda Adams, who is a legendary gospel singer. I've had

64
00:04:07.800 --> 00:04:11.560
her on the show numerous times. I call her Auntie Auntie.

65
00:04:12.240 --> 00:04:15.560
I love her so much. Her new album, Sunny Days

66
00:04:15.919 --> 00:04:19.639

new album in thirteen years. It's Crazy Sunny Day. So anyway,

90
00:05:44.279 --> 00:05:48.480
that's out. In movies, Speak No Evil, which is a

91
00:05:48.480 --> 00:05:49.680
Blumhouse movie.

92
00:05:50.160 --> 00:05:52.959
I want to see that movie so bad with James McAvoy.

93
00:05:53.040 --> 00:05:55.680
Yes, I feel like I've seen trailers for this. I have,

94
00:05:56.000 --> 00:05:59.879
like every day for the last ten years. Hasn't been

95
00:05:59.879 --> 00:06:02.879
like that, hasn't been that look, But yeah, I want

96
00:06:02.879 --> 00:06:05.279
to see it really really badly as well. It looks

97
00:06:05.360 --> 00:06:08.240
so good, it really does. And I love James McAvoy,

98
00:06:08.279 --> 00:06:11.240
I love Blumhouse, Like you just can't go wrong with

99
00:06:11.360 --> 00:06:14.639
either of those. Yeah. Then the Killers Game with Dave Bautista.

100
00:06:14.800 --> 00:06:15.800
Well I want to see that one too.

101
00:06:15.920 --> 00:06:20.360
Yeah, that looks great a book, I think so. Yeah,

102
00:06:20.519 --> 00:06:20.959
I saw.

103
00:06:20.839 --> 00:06:23.560
The trailer to it, I think this weekend when I

104
00:06:23.560 --> 00:06:26.720
went to the movies. Yeah, and it looked really interesting.

105
00:06:26.839 --> 00:06:31.240
Yeah, yeah, it looks like fun and funny and thrillery

106
00:06:31.360 --> 00:06:34.319
and action. Yeah. And then one of my favorite directors,

107
00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:38.519
Kevin Smith. You know he is no, of course not listen.

108
00:06:39.879 --> 00:06:45.759
He has done Clerks, Maul, Rats, Chasing Amy, Clerks two,

109
00:06:45.839 --> 00:06:50.839
Clerks three. He's got incredible films. I literally love all

110
00:06:50.879 --> 00:06:54.360
of his work. He has a film called The four

111
00:06:54.519 --> 00:06:59.079
thirty Movie that is out today right now that is

112
00:06:59.160 --> 00:07:03.000
kind of an o to being a movie loving teenager

113
00:07:03.040 --> 00:07:07.040
in the eighties. So as a movie lover, I obviously

114
00:07:07.120 --> 00:07:08.959
want to see it. Anyway, as a Kevin Smith fan,

115
00:07:09.000 --> 00:07:11.199
I want to see it. And then I love like

116
00:07:11.319 --> 00:07:13.519
nostalgia movies, so like it takes place in the eighties,

117
00:07:13.560 --> 00:07:16.759
so I love movies like that, so I'm on board

118
00:07:17.120 --> 00:07:19.439
for all of it. So I can't wait to see that.

119
00:07:20.040 --> 00:07:23.759
No one's streaming. Have you heard of this film called Uglies? Uglies?

120
00:07:23.839 --> 00:07:27.120
Yes, I have or a it's a film, right, is

121
00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:27.839
it or a show?

122
00:07:28.040 --> 00:07:30.480
Or is it a show? Yeah? Where like all of them,

123
00:07:30.879 --> 00:07:33.519
once you turn sixteen, you like have to get plastics

124
00:07:34.079 --> 00:07:38.000
or something like that. Yeah, I've heard of it. Yeah, Yeah,

125
00:07:38.079 --> 00:07:42.279
that looks super interesting. It could either be horrendous or awesome.

126
00:07:42.839 --> 00:07:44.800
Like I feel like there's no middle ground. Like, nobody's

127
00:07:44.839 --> 00:07:45.560
gonna watch it and be.

128
00:07:45.519 --> 00:07:48.120
Like, I think for a topic like that, it's either

129
00:07:48.120 --> 00:07:50.319
a hit or miss. Yeah, you're either gonna nail it

130
00:07:50.480 --> 00:07:51.959
or you're gonna butcher it.

131
00:07:52.040 --> 00:07:54.720
Exactly. It is a movie, actually, oh it is. Yeah.

132
00:07:55.079 --> 00:07:59.920
So the Byeline is in a futuristic dystopia with enforced

133
00:08:00.040 --> 00:08:04.399
beauty standards. A teen awaiting mandatory cosmetic surgery embarks on

134
00:08:04.439 --> 00:08:07.399
a journey to find her missing friend, and it stars

135
00:08:07.439 --> 00:08:10.920
Joey King and Laverne Cox. It looks pretty interesting, so

136
00:08:11.040 --> 00:08:13.079
I'll check that out at some point, and then How

137
00:08:13.079 --> 00:08:15.879
to Die Alone on Hulu, which is that looks really

138
00:08:15.879 --> 00:08:18.720
cool as well. Then like what's out this week? This

139
00:08:18.759 --> 00:08:20.759
is technically a pre order, but going back to the

140
00:08:20.800 --> 00:08:23.920
weekend with Dancing in the Flame the new iPhones.

141
00:08:24.319 --> 00:08:26.959
Oh, I saw that they have new colors.

142
00:08:26.839 --> 00:08:30.399
Well and totally new phones and everything. I mean besides

143

gotten the new iPhone since the very first one.

153
00:08:57.879 --> 00:08:58.440
Oh my goodness.

154
00:08:58.440 --> 00:09:02.399
It's like a tradition, it is. Yep. So I'm excited

155
00:09:02.440 --> 00:09:10.519
about that. All right. What we watched this week? So

156
00:09:12.039 --> 00:09:14.759
I watched a couple of things. I saw a screener

157
00:09:14.879 --> 00:09:19.399
yesterday of this upcoming documentary called super Man The Christopher

158
00:09:19.399 --> 00:09:23.519
Reeves Story, and I was crying in the theater. It

159
00:09:23.679 --> 00:09:27.759
is incredible. I'm gonna be talking with Christopher Reeves's children

160
00:09:28.120 --> 00:09:32.279
on an upcoming episode of Pop Culture Weekly, and I

161
00:09:32.360 --> 00:09:37.240
was just bawling, really literally bawling. I mean, so, I

162
00:09:37.279 --> 00:09:39.080
don't know if you're familiar with Christopher Reeve, but he

163
00:09:39.159 --> 00:09:43.480
was Superman, like the original Superman. Yes, so he did

164
00:09:43.519 --> 00:09:47.080
what like four movies, and from you know, from seeing

165
00:09:47.120 --> 00:09:49.639
I mean I was too young like when this all happened,

166
00:09:49.639 --> 00:09:54.320
but from watching the documentary, everybody saw him as Superman.

167
00:09:54.799 --> 00:09:58.679
And then he got in a horrendous freak accident with

168
00:09:58.759 --> 00:09:59.240
the horse.

169
00:10:00.039 --> 00:10:01.919
What you're talking about, wasn't he paralyzed?

170
00:10:01.960 --> 00:10:03.519
Yes? Yes? Yeah?

171
00:10:03.559 --> 00:10:06.879
From was it the neck down down. Yeah, I know

172
00:10:06.960 --> 00:10:08.159
exactly what you're talking about, and.

173
00:10:08.120 --> 00:10:10.080
Could not breathe on his own. I mean he was

174
00:10:10.360 --> 00:10:15.120
you go from literally being Superman to breathing by a machine. Yeah,

175
00:10:15.200 --> 00:10:18.879
I mean it was heartbreaking and then oh my god. Anyway, Yeah,

176
00:10:18.919 --> 00:10:22.679
it is really good. It will have a limited release

177
00:10:22.720 --> 00:10:25.879
in theaters and then it'll be available on Max. And

178
00:10:26.159 --> 00:10:30.200
I highly recommend everybody sees that. It is amazing. I

179
00:10:30.240 --> 00:10:33.519
also saw Beetlejuice. Beetlejuice. Did you see it? I haven't.

180
00:10:33.559 --> 00:10:35.759
I'm scheduled to see it this weekend. Okay, I have

181
00:10:35.879 --> 00:10:36.960
my ticket and everything.

182
00:10:37.039 --> 00:10:38.799
Okay, it is so good it is.

183
00:10:38.879 --> 00:10:41.759
I actually rewatched Beetlejuice. Yeah, two days ago.

184
00:10:41.799 --> 00:10:43.159
I should have done that. That's what I did.

185
00:10:43.320 --> 00:10:44.679
Yeah, well I had never seen it.

186
00:10:45.200 --> 00:10:48.639
You've never seen kind of here you go listen. Okay,

187
00:10:48.840 --> 00:10:54.240
I have no excuse, but that's your list of movies

188
00:10:54.240 --> 00:10:56.559
that I gave you. Yeah, but I watched it and

189
00:10:56.600 --> 00:10:57.240
I liked it.

190
00:10:57.240 --> 00:10:59.279
It was really good. Yeah, but the ending kind of

191
00:10:59.279 --> 00:10:59.960
pissed me off.

192
00:11:01.480 --> 00:11:05.759
Well this is for me anyway, This like is just

193
00:11:05.840 --> 00:11:09.720
a continuation. Like you know, some movies, like some sequels

194
00:11:09.759 --> 00:11:14.519
are like they tried this is like for me anyway,

195
00:11:15.000 --> 00:11:17.200
I feel like I'm right back in that world. He

196
00:11:17.399 --> 00:11:19.480
is so and Tim Burton, who is one of my

197
00:11:20.240 --> 00:11:24.000
ever obviously directed it and everything, and it's just I

198
00:11:24.080 --> 00:11:25.639
just loved it so so much.

199
00:11:25.720 --> 00:11:27.559
Yeah, I'm so excited to see it because I see

200
00:11:27.639 --> 00:11:29.960
so many like record that it's breaking.

201
00:11:30.159 --> 00:11:32.879
It has such good reviews. Yes, like making me so

202
00:11:33.039 --> 00:11:33.519
amped up.

203
00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:36.840
To see it. Yeah, it is so good. Yeah. We

204
00:11:36.960 --> 00:11:39.200
both watched something this week, which we'll talk about in

205
00:11:39.200 --> 00:11:41.919
a second. But besides that, what else have you? What

206
00:11:42.200 --> 00:11:43.399
did you watch this week? So?

207
00:11:43.440 --> 00:11:47.559
I watched People Juice. This week I watched Twisters. I

208
00:11:47.600 --> 00:11:49.399
hadn't seen it, so I finally got a chance to

209
00:11:49.440 --> 00:11:52.919
see it. Yeah it was It was okay, Okay, it

210
00:11:52.960 --> 00:11:54.799
was okay, okay, okay.

211
00:11:55.039 --> 00:11:56.039
Here's my thing with Twisters.

212
00:11:56.120 --> 00:11:56.399
Okay.

213
00:11:56.600 --> 00:12:01.720
I wanted the tornadoes to be more dramatic. I wanted

214
00:12:01.720 --> 00:12:04.200
it to be more like I wanted them to be bigger.

215
00:12:04.960 --> 00:12:09.440
And I did like the storyline with Kate and you

216
00:12:09.480 --> 00:12:13.559
know what was his name? The main here, Glenn Powell's character,

217
00:12:13.720 --> 00:12:15.480
I can't remember his name, but I did like that

218
00:12:15.519 --> 00:12:18.480
storyline about how you know it starts off with the

219
00:12:18.519 --> 00:12:20.600
E F five and you know, it kind of goes

220
00:12:20.639 --> 00:12:24.399
into like her feelings about it and everything. So I

221
00:12:24.399 --> 00:12:26.559
thought that was pretty interesting to see her go from

222
00:12:26.960 --> 00:12:31.759
being going through PTSD to branching out of Rachelle and realizing,

223
00:12:32.000 --> 00:12:34.159
you know, this is really her passion. So I did

224
00:12:34.240 --> 00:12:37.200
like that. But I guess my only complaint was the tornadoes.

225
00:12:37.240 --> 00:12:39.720
They were just so small compared to the big to

226
00:12:39.840 --> 00:12:44.960
the first movie. I wanted like the towns upside down.

227
00:12:45.159 --> 00:12:50.240
I wanted like Cow's flying again. But the storyline was

228
00:12:50.279 --> 00:12:53.879
pretty good. It's just my only complaint was.

229
00:12:53.919 --> 00:12:56.000
The tornadoes were just such babies.

230
00:12:56.240 --> 00:12:57.759
They were very skinny.

231
00:12:58.360 --> 00:13:00.320
They were very skinny, and I'm looking at the Todays,

232
00:13:00.320 --> 00:13:01.919
I'm like, oh my god, Oh it's starting.

233
00:13:02.000 --> 00:13:04.799
It's you know, the weather's changing, the sky's getting dark. Okay,

234
00:13:04.960 --> 00:13:05.960
it's about to go down.

235
00:13:06.440 --> 00:13:09.600
No, it's the skinniest tornado you've ever seen.

236
00:13:10.919 --> 00:13:15.039
I'm like, what is this? Yeah. I do feel like

237
00:13:15.080 --> 00:13:17.879
in some ways they went a little so I feel

238
00:13:17.879 --> 00:13:21.039
like it was less what's it called, like End of

239
00:13:21.039 --> 00:13:25.399
the World type film? Yeah, or like actual film? Yeah,

240
00:13:25.440 --> 00:13:27.360
you know what I mean, which is not bad. Yeah,

241
00:13:27.360 --> 00:13:28.039
it's not bad.

242
00:13:28.120 --> 00:13:31.399
Yeah, But I really do like those dramatic scenes because

243
00:13:31.399 --> 00:13:33.840
I feel like it contributes to the movie.

244
00:13:34.039 --> 00:13:34.720
It's like, it's a.

245
00:13:34.679 --> 00:13:38.720
Disaster film, disaster, So where's the disaster at You're.

246
00:13:38.559 --> 00:13:40.080
Like, it's not enough of a disaster.

247
00:13:40.279 --> 00:13:42.600
No, And you know, I was in the car of

248
00:13:42.679 --> 00:13:44.480
my sister. We were talking about it, and I was saying,

249
00:13:44.480 --> 00:13:46.440
you know, maybe I'm just thinking too hard about it.

250
00:13:46.440 --> 00:13:48.759
Maybe I'm just comparing it too much to the first one,

251
00:13:48.759 --> 00:13:52.720
which I shouldn't because the first one had massive tournado

252
00:13:52.759 --> 00:13:57.360
I mean destruction. Yeah, oh like, oh, but this one,

253
00:13:57.759 --> 00:13:59.080
you know, the stir line was good.

254
00:13:59.159 --> 00:13:59.879
I we'll give it that.

255
00:14:00.320 --> 00:14:03.480
The actors all did like a phenomenal job. Like it

256
00:14:03.519 --> 00:14:06.000
was just it really had me into the film.

257
00:14:06.080 --> 00:14:08.000
Yeah, I really loved it. What else did you say?

258
00:14:08.799 --> 00:14:11.759
I actually watched Joker for the first time because I

259
00:14:11.759 --> 00:14:13.440
know that Joker two is coming out yea, and I

260
00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:16.440
want to watch Joker too. I love Lady Gaga, so

261
00:14:16.840 --> 00:14:18.399
when I found out that she was Harley Quinn, I

262
00:14:18.519 --> 00:14:21.399
was like, Okay, I have to watch this film. So

263
00:14:21.559 --> 00:14:24.120
I had never watched Joker, So I watched it this

264
00:14:24.159 --> 00:14:28.039
week and I freaking loved it. It was a good movie. Yeah,

265
00:14:28.600 --> 00:14:31.519
oh my goodness, Like what's his name, Joaquin Phoenix. Yeah,

266
00:14:31.559 --> 00:14:35.159
Oh my goodness. His acting was phenomenal.

267
00:14:35.240 --> 00:14:38.639
Yeah, he's amazing. He's an amazing actor and like everything

268
00:14:38.720 --> 00:14:39.279
is ever done.

269
00:14:39.360 --> 00:14:41.720
Oh yes, Like by the end of the movie, I

270
00:14:41.799 --> 00:14:43.919
literally had chills. Yeah, you know, I was like, Oh

271
00:14:43.960 --> 00:14:46.360
my goodness, this guy.

272
00:14:45.600 --> 00:14:47.879
He should have won awards. I don't know if he did, but.

273
00:14:48.120 --> 00:14:50.039
I think it was nominated at least. Oh my god.

274
00:14:50.120 --> 00:14:53.519
But he It was just such a great performance, and

275
00:14:53.559 --> 00:14:55.960
the storyline was something that I had never you know,

276
00:14:56.039 --> 00:14:58.720
releas seen before. I think that it's like a whole

277
00:14:58.799 --> 00:15:02.600
new direction with joke, like looking at his backstory.

278
00:15:02.679 --> 00:15:05.279
Yeah, so that was really interesting. Yes, I love what

279
00:15:05.320 --> 00:15:05.879
they did with that.

280
00:15:06.120 --> 00:15:06.399
Yeah.

281
00:15:06.480 --> 00:15:09.279
Yeah, and I'm looking forward to that to the second

282
00:15:09.279 --> 00:15:12.159
one as well, because because I too, am a big

283
00:15:12.200 --> 00:15:17.759
fan of The Joker with Waking Phoenix, and I'm excited

284
00:15:17.799 --> 00:15:21.240
to see I'm interested to see where they go with this,

285
00:15:21.639 --> 00:15:22.240
you know what I mean.

286
00:15:22.440 --> 00:15:26.279
Yeah, the trailer it is kind of like not giving

287
00:15:26.320 --> 00:15:28.720
away too much, but that's and that's what I like.

288
00:15:28.919 --> 00:15:29.879
So I love that.

289
00:15:30.559 --> 00:15:33.519
But at the same time, it's like, you know kind

290
00:15:33.559 --> 00:15:35.399
of what it's going to be about, but you don't

291
00:15:35.399 --> 00:15:37.639
know how they're going to execute it exactly, which that's

292
00:15:37.679 --> 00:15:39.799
what I like when trailers. Yeah, you know, you know

293
00:15:39.799 --> 00:15:41.639
how I feel about trailers nowadays. I feel like they

294
00:15:41.720 --> 00:15:41.960
tell you.

295
00:15:42.000 --> 00:15:44.679
The whole freaking movie exactly, and that puss me off.

296
00:15:44.960 --> 00:15:47.960
For this one, it's like, okay, yeah, to find out,

297
00:15:48.000 --> 00:15:49.559
I gotta watch it to find out what it's going

298
00:15:49.639 --> 00:15:50.080
to be about.

299
00:15:50.200 --> 00:15:53.919
Yeah, yeah, I love that. What anything else you saw?

300
00:15:54.960 --> 00:15:57.840
I saw Lego Batman movie.

301
00:15:58.600 --> 00:16:00.000
I love the Lego Batman movie.

302
00:16:00.120 --> 00:16:00.320
Yeah.

303
00:16:00.360 --> 00:16:02.519
One of my friends, she'sne wanted me to watch it,

304
00:16:02.720 --> 00:16:05.159
which is really funny because I didn't plan to see Joker,

305
00:16:05.600 --> 00:16:08.440
and it's just really weird how like, I watched Lego

306
00:16:08.480 --> 00:16:11.399
Batman movie and then I watched like the Joker Phoenix after,

307
00:16:12.320 --> 00:16:15.559
Like I had no intention to do that, but it

308
00:16:15.639 --> 00:16:17.840
was all max and I was like, okay, I watched this,

309
00:16:17.960 --> 00:16:20.320
and then I was like, oh, so imagine watching Lego

310
00:16:20.320 --> 00:16:24.600
Batman movie and then watching Watcheren Phoenix's Joker right after.

311
00:16:25.320 --> 00:16:27.279
But Lego Batman was really funny. It was really fun.

312
00:16:27.600 --> 00:16:29.600
You know, It's something that I normally wouldn't put on,

313
00:16:30.159 --> 00:16:33.360
but I had a blast watching that movie.

314
00:16:33.360 --> 00:16:34.519
It's such a fun.

315
00:16:34.320 --> 00:16:36.440
Movie and I was really surprised at how much I

316
00:16:36.519 --> 00:16:37.320
really enjoyed it.

317
00:16:37.440 --> 00:16:40.159
Yeah, yeah, me too. When I saw it, you know,

318
00:16:40.200 --> 00:16:41.960
I went in I'm a huge Batman fan, so like

319
00:16:42.039 --> 00:16:43.960
when I saw it, I was like, I mean, I'm

320
00:16:43.960 --> 00:16:46.639
gonna say it just because it's Batman, Like, oh god,

321
00:16:46.879 --> 00:16:50.000
And then I'm like, what this is? All? Was so funny?

322
00:16:49.960 --> 00:16:52.960
Yeah, like his little quirky like lines. It was so

323
00:16:53.120 --> 00:16:55.519
different because I feel like I grew up watching like

324
00:16:55.519 --> 00:16:57.240
The Dark Knight and stuff like that, and Batman was

325
00:16:57.279 --> 00:17:00.639
always so serious. But seeing this Batman like it was

326
00:17:00.799 --> 00:17:03.840
kind of, you know, funny, and I was like, this

327
00:17:03.879 --> 00:17:04.640
is kind of nice.

328
00:17:04.720 --> 00:17:07.799
Yeah. Yeah, I do love the Lego Batman movie.

329
00:17:08.319 --> 00:17:10.240
But that's about it. That's all I watched this week.

330
00:17:10.400 --> 00:17:15.240
Well there's something else you watched that I also watched,

331
00:17:16.160 --> 00:17:17.480
and it is called.

332
00:17:18.720 --> 00:17:24.000
I Can Smell Yep, no bye bye. You know because

333
00:17:24.039 --> 00:17:30.759
I've been saying that to my sister oh as a joke. Wait,

334
00:17:30.920 --> 00:17:33.839
why didn't tell me why she went into work yesterday?

335
00:17:33.920 --> 00:17:37.039
And her coworker said the same thing. Really, yes, I

336
00:17:37.200 --> 00:17:40.640
just like, not you too, Like it's become such an

337
00:17:40.799 --> 00:17:41.519
iconic line.

338
00:17:41.640 --> 00:17:45.279
Yes. What we're talking about is, of course, the deliverance

339
00:17:45.480 --> 00:17:51.880
on Netflix, which if you have not seen this movie, wow,

340
00:17:52.200 --> 00:17:57.440
I loved it. It. It is from Lee Daniels, who

341
00:17:57.480 --> 00:18:01.839
is a celebrated writer direct it is I would say

342
00:18:01.839 --> 00:18:04.920
he's or not. I would say it's it's his first

343
00:18:04.920 --> 00:18:07.720
horror movie. I mean, if you look at his other work,

344
00:18:07.839 --> 00:18:13.680
he's done Monsters, Ball, The Woodsman's Shadow Boxer, Precious the Butler, Pimp,

345
00:18:14.079 --> 00:18:16.400
United States, First Billy Holiday. I mean, this is his

346
00:18:16.559 --> 00:18:23.519
first horror movie. I loved it. Its stars Oscar winning

347
00:18:24.039 --> 00:18:31.440
celebrated actress Glenn Close in the craziest role. I was floored.

348
00:18:31.720 --> 00:18:33.440
First of all, I didn't realize it was Glenn Close

349
00:18:33.480 --> 00:18:37.920
when I watched the trailer and then when I to

350
00:18:38.079 --> 00:18:40.799
and to be honest, so just to give if you

351
00:18:40.880 --> 00:18:43.240
haven't listened to it, or you haven't watched it, you

352
00:18:43.279 --> 00:18:49.319
know listening. It follows the Jackson family in Indiana. They

353
00:18:49.359 --> 00:18:53.079
move into a house where they start experiencing like strange

354
00:18:53.319 --> 00:18:58.799
occurrences that eventually convince them that there's something more going on.

355
00:18:59.640 --> 00:19:03.119
And and it's based on a true story which is wild,

356
00:19:03.200 --> 00:19:08.440
which is crazy wild, And oh a, Monique's in it too,

357
00:19:08.519 --> 00:19:11.240
Omar Epps Andrew Day, who I love, you know she

358
00:19:11.279 --> 00:19:13.880
sings that song rise Up? Oh she does, Yeah, she wrote,

359
00:19:13.960 --> 00:19:16.160
saying that, So Andrew ellis Taylor who I just had

360
00:19:16.240 --> 00:19:19.160
on a couple of weeks ago on the show, and

361
00:19:19.720 --> 00:19:22.079
I Okay, So when I saw the trailer, let me

362
00:19:22.079 --> 00:19:26.039
put it this way, I was like, is that a

363
00:19:26.079 --> 00:19:30.680
white woman playing a black woman when talking about the grandmother.

364
00:19:31.079 --> 00:19:35.079
When I was watching the trailer, I'm like, is the

365
00:19:35.079 --> 00:19:37.599
color of my TV messed up? Like what is going on?

366
00:19:38.640 --> 00:19:42.599
And then I google it and I'm like, that's not

367
00:19:42.680 --> 00:19:45.359
Glenn Close, Like what are you talking about? That was

368
00:19:45.400 --> 00:19:49.119
not Glenn Close in that trailer. And then I like

369
00:19:49.160 --> 00:19:51.759
go to the Wikipedia page and I'm like, that's Glenn Close.

370
00:19:53.079 --> 00:19:55.599
And so then I'm like, I hope that she is

371
00:19:55.640 --> 00:19:57.319
not playing a black.

372
00:19:57.039 --> 00:19:59.119
Woman because that would be problematic.

373
00:19:58.799 --> 00:20:03.519
Right, extremely probably. So I'm like, she is a legend.

374
00:20:03.599 --> 00:20:07.119
There's no way that she was Like yeah, that's like

375
00:20:07.119 --> 00:20:10.720
like essentially like playing black flight Wait face, you know

376
00:20:10.759 --> 00:20:13.119
what I'm saying. I'm like, there's no and Lee Daniels

377
00:20:13.240 --> 00:20:18.519
is a you know, black creator, director, writer, producer, Like

378
00:20:18.599 --> 00:20:19.359
he wouldn't do that.

379
00:20:19.519 --> 00:20:20.799
No, he wouldn't allow that, you know.

380
00:20:20.960 --> 00:20:23.279
So I'm like, there, what am I missing?

381
00:20:23.400 --> 00:20:25.279
Yeah, am I missing.

382
00:20:25.519 --> 00:20:27.680
Yeah, I'm like, there's something like what is your Like,

383
00:20:27.720 --> 00:20:29.839
I don't get it. So then I started watching the

384
00:20:29.839 --> 00:20:34.240
film and then I'm like, Okay, I don't understand what's happening.

385
00:20:34.440 --> 00:20:38.400
Like obviously she's not wearing black flace, like I realized

386
00:20:38.440 --> 00:20:41.000
that once I start, But I'm like, is she supposed

387
00:20:41.039 --> 00:20:43.559
to be playing a black woman? Like her daughter is

388
00:20:43.599 --> 00:20:45.559
black blah blah blah, which could be adopted or whatever,

389
00:20:45.599 --> 00:20:48.640
but everything about it, I was just very confused. So

390
00:20:48.680 --> 00:20:53.960
then I googled it and the director Lee Daniels said

391
00:20:54.039 --> 00:20:59.680
that everybody knows every black person knows a person like

392
00:20:59.799 --> 00:21:03.920
ol Burda in their community, meaning like that white woman

393
00:21:04.079 --> 00:21:07.000
or person. But I think he said he might have

394
00:21:07.039 --> 00:21:11.079
said woman, that white woman who you know is very

395
00:21:11.319 --> 00:21:15.960
ingrained in the black culture dates like mostly exclusively black men,

396
00:21:16.039 --> 00:21:19.799
that sort of thing. So she was actually playing that person.

397
00:21:20.440 --> 00:21:22.519
So that made me feel better because I'm like, Okay,

398
00:21:22.559 --> 00:21:27.240
I'm not watching racism, like, you know, for fun. But

399
00:21:27.400 --> 00:21:33.200
having said that, she was amazing. She was really good, amazing.

400
00:21:33.319 --> 00:21:38.039
Her performance in that role had me give it gave

401
00:21:38.079 --> 00:21:40.799
me chills, yeah, you know, especially the ending scene.

402
00:21:40.880 --> 00:21:45.240
Yes, that scene, Yes, was powerful yes, and the whole film,

403
00:21:45.440 --> 00:21:48.519
Like it was almost like there was two separate films

404
00:21:48.559 --> 00:21:50.720
that were kind of, I feel like, kind of combined

405
00:21:50.720 --> 00:21:52.599
in one. Like I feel like the first half was

406
00:21:52.640 --> 00:21:56.599
like a drama you know where I'm like, I.

407
00:21:56.559 --> 00:21:59.839
Got Tyler Perry kind of vibes in the first half. Yeah, yeah,

408
00:22:00.240 --> 00:22:02.480
like that kind of like, yeah, the dramatics.

409
00:22:01.960 --> 00:22:06.039
Of it exactly because you know, no spoilers here, but

410
00:22:06.640 --> 00:22:12.519
for you listening, the film basically is in the beginning

411
00:22:12.720 --> 00:22:17.319
is there's questions on if this mother is abusing her children,

412
00:22:18.039 --> 00:22:22.079
and Alberta, her mother, also starts questioning it because all

413
00:22:22.079 --> 00:22:24.599
this weird stuff is happening. So it's very much like

414
00:22:24.720 --> 00:22:28.079
a wait, where's the horror? Where's this for me? Anyway?

415
00:22:28.119 --> 00:22:29.559
I mean obviously it's a real life harder.

416
00:22:29.759 --> 00:22:32.480
I felt like that too, because then you had CPS

417
00:22:32.519 --> 00:22:35.359
coming in exactly, and then you had question like, you know,

418
00:22:36.160 --> 00:22:39.079
then there was a weird photographer that was USA, and

419
00:22:39.119 --> 00:22:41.240
it's just where what's going on here?

420
00:22:41.279 --> 00:22:45.319
I'm just so confused exactly. Yeah, and it but it

421
00:22:45.359 --> 00:22:47.359
had me on the edge of my seat the entire time,

422
00:22:47.759 --> 00:22:50.519
even like even like the drama part. Yeah, Like the

423
00:22:50.559 --> 00:22:53.759
first half I was like oh my gosh, like is she.

424
00:22:54.200 --> 00:22:56.480
No, I texted you, Yeah, I would like to answer

425
00:22:56.519 --> 00:22:58.599
me this, like is she really abusing her kids?

426
00:22:58.720 --> 00:23:01.599
Yeah? Yeah, because and that's how I was when I

427
00:23:01.640 --> 00:23:05.200
watched it. I'm like, no, like she's just a single mother,

428
00:23:05.400 --> 00:23:07.400
like trying to do her best, Like, no, she wouldn't

429
00:23:07.400 --> 00:23:10.039
do that. And then I'm like maybe she would. Like

430
00:23:10.200 --> 00:23:14.559
it's just like it's so, it's so good had me doubting.

431
00:23:14.759 --> 00:23:18.000
Yes, you know my initial like you know, reaction to

432
00:23:18.079 --> 00:23:18.880
it exactly.

433
00:23:19.480 --> 00:23:24.039
And then again no spoilers, but Glenn close the whole thing.

434
00:23:24.640 --> 00:23:26.799
I don't even know it. You have to watch it.

435
00:23:27.400 --> 00:23:30.079
You have to. Did you like it? You didn't like it?

436
00:23:30.519 --> 00:23:34.559
I mean I thought it was okay, Okay, that's all right.

437
00:23:34.559 --> 00:23:36.240
I'm not I didn't make it, so I'm not like

438
00:23:36.359 --> 00:23:37.200
personally offended.

439
00:23:37.240 --> 00:23:39.400
I'm trying to explain why, okay, why, I mean I

440
00:23:39.440 --> 00:23:41.839
think that it was okay. I was just confused. I

441
00:23:41.880 --> 00:23:45.119
don't like movies where I'm confused like the majority of

442
00:23:45.160 --> 00:23:47.079
the film, because I like to know what's going on.

443
00:23:47.599 --> 00:23:50.680
I like it when the characters are confused.

444
00:23:50.680 --> 00:23:54.039
But I know why, you know, so you don't like

445
00:23:54.039 --> 00:23:56.559
like mystery movies. I do.

446
00:23:56.680 --> 00:23:59.599
That's the thing, though, I do. I like knowing what

447
00:23:59.680 --> 00:24:03.799
the care characters know. Okay, you know, for sure the

448
00:24:03.880 --> 00:24:06.240
character didn't know what the heck was going on, and

449
00:24:06.319 --> 00:24:08.839
neither did I, you know. But I don't like being

450
00:24:08.880 --> 00:24:12.319
completely lost in a film or the characters because then

451
00:24:12.319 --> 00:24:12.720
I feel like.

452
00:24:12.720 --> 00:24:15.079
I'm lost, You're lost, what's happening?

453
00:24:15.160 --> 00:24:17.640
Well, I don't even know how to describe this right now.

454
00:24:18.000 --> 00:24:21.119
I think that the beginning kind of made me a

455
00:24:21.119 --> 00:24:22.240
little bit bored.

456
00:24:22.759 --> 00:24:25.160
I didn't know what was going on. I was trying

457
00:24:25.200 --> 00:24:26.960
to figure it out, but.

458
00:24:27.759 --> 00:24:31.920
You know, it was just not really explaining anything, which

459
00:24:31.920 --> 00:24:35.279
I guess was the point, you know, to you know,

460
00:24:35.440 --> 00:24:37.839
build up to the end, which was that really made

461
00:24:37.880 --> 00:24:40.119
it okay, this is picking.

462
00:24:39.920 --> 00:24:44.519
Up, thank god. But overall, I mean it was it

463
00:24:44.599 --> 00:24:45.359
was okay.

464
00:24:45.240 --> 00:24:48.279
Okay, And see, I loved it. I love not knowing

465
00:24:49.000 --> 00:24:52.559
because I love like twists and turns and stuff, so

466
00:24:52.759 --> 00:24:57.000
especially if the characters don't know, because I'm like, yeah, like,

467
00:24:57.400 --> 00:25:01.319
as long at now, I'm gonna give this a caviat

468
00:25:01.400 --> 00:25:05.200
caveat that, as long as the director and writer and

469
00:25:05.240 --> 00:25:07.599
all knows what's going on, like if they're just winging

470
00:25:07.640 --> 00:25:10.240
it and it doesn't tie in at the end, you

471
00:25:09.640 --> 00:25:12.960
feel like, screw that, you just wasted my time in life.

472
00:25:13.480 --> 00:25:16.039
But as long as you they have a real plan

473
00:25:16.039 --> 00:25:19.880
where it all ties to get together, I'm good. So

474
00:25:20.160 --> 00:25:21.559
I was like on the edge of my seat the

475
00:25:21.559 --> 00:25:25.440
whole time. Really loved it. Yeah, yeah, I really really

476
00:25:25.440 --> 00:25:27.960
loved it. The end I thought it was so insane.

477
00:25:28.839 --> 00:25:31.200
That's why I wanted you to watch it. Yeah, And

478
00:25:32.000 --> 00:25:34.680
since this episode isn't it about that? I don't want

479
00:25:34.680 --> 00:25:38.960
to give any spoilers, but the film at the end,

480
00:25:40.119 --> 00:25:44.000
I'm like, what what did I just watch? Yeah? I

481
00:25:44.000 --> 00:25:46.519
mean it's I loved it, but I'm like, that was

482
00:25:46.960 --> 00:25:52.000
not so And the performances, especially Glenn Close and I've

483
00:25:52.000 --> 00:25:53.960
been practicing that. By the way, I won't say it,

484
00:25:53.960 --> 00:25:55.960
but say it. No, I don't even don't even do

485
00:25:56.000 --> 00:25:57.599
a voice. You don't like the voice.

486
00:25:57.680 --> 00:26:03.200
Oh, I don't like any of the voices and smell No.

487
00:26:03.119 --> 00:26:07.519
There Tickle Terry and we don't want to bring that back.

488
00:26:09.480 --> 00:26:09.839
To know.

489
00:26:14.960 --> 00:26:18.960
The return of Pickle Terry Deliverance. Could you imagine?

490
00:26:19.400 --> 00:26:22.200
Wait, what is that? What does that impression kind of

491
00:26:22.240 --> 00:26:23.000
sound like?

492
00:26:23.079 --> 00:26:23.880
Yeah?

493
00:26:24.759 --> 00:26:26.559
No, Now I'm gonna think about it so differently.

494
00:26:27.839 --> 00:26:31.359
Oh, my god. Yeah, oh my god. Yes, there are

495
00:26:31.359 --> 00:26:35.799
so many ways that could go, but we're nice, nice,

496
00:26:36.279 --> 00:26:42.160
god fearing people, so we won't. We won't go there anyway.

497
00:26:42.240 --> 00:26:44.680
So yeah, that was the Deliverance. I highly recommend you

498
00:26:44.759 --> 00:26:47.640

huge Jason Voorhees fan.

516
00:28:01.480 --> 00:28:03.920
Yes, I love everything about this franchise.

517
00:28:04.000 --> 00:28:08.240
Me too, Like there is so let's get let's get

518
00:28:08.279 --> 00:28:09.240
into some interesting things.

519
00:28:09.279 --> 00:28:09.960
Okay, okay.

520
00:28:11.119 --> 00:28:14.559
So did you know that the producer and director Sean

521
00:28:14.599 --> 00:28:17.920
Cunningham the of Friday thirteenth, the original one, his inspiration

522
00:28:18.039 --> 00:28:20.759
was actually Halloween, the film Halloween. Yes you did?

523
00:28:20.880 --> 00:28:22.400
I did know that. I see you why?

524
00:28:22.640 --> 00:28:22.960
Okay.

525
00:28:23.279 --> 00:28:27.039
So there's a YouTuber called dead Meat Oh yeah, yeah,

526
00:28:27.079 --> 00:28:29.599
and I watch his videos all the time after I

527
00:28:29.599 --> 00:28:31.480
watch a movie, and he has a whole entire Friday

528
00:28:31.559 --> 00:28:35.960
thirteenth franchise, so like he has a whole like a

529
00:28:36.359 --> 00:28:40.480
video series of the Friday thirteenth franchise, and he actually

530
00:28:40.640 --> 00:28:43.640
explains backstory of the movie. And that's how I found

531
00:28:43.680 --> 00:28:46.880
out because there's a lot of Halloween references in the

532
00:28:47.079 --> 00:28:50.680
in the Friday movies, you know. And when I piece

533
00:28:50.680 --> 00:28:52.559
it all together, like when I watch Halloween and then

534
00:28:52.559 --> 00:28:55.519
I want to watch Friday, I saw them.

535
00:28:55.519 --> 00:28:58.359
I'm gonna have to watch on Friday the thirteenth.

536
00:28:58.519 --> 00:29:01.279
Yeah, it's very informative. Yeah, because I don't pick up

537
00:29:01.319 --> 00:29:01.839
things like that.

538
00:29:02.000 --> 00:29:02.599
Yeah, me either.

539
00:29:02.680 --> 00:29:06.519
So I have to watch someone who's essentially like an expert,

540
00:29:07.200 --> 00:29:10.160
like explain it, and once I see it, and once

541
00:29:10.200 --> 00:29:12.319
I hear it, I piece it together, like, oh, you

542
00:29:12.359 --> 00:29:13.240
know what that is?

543
00:29:13.400 --> 00:29:14.359
Yeah, that makes sense.

544
00:29:14.640 --> 00:29:17.480
It's funny that you say that because I'm the same way.

545
00:29:17.599 --> 00:29:20.960
Like I watched this one film and I talked to

546
00:29:21.160 --> 00:29:25.880
some friends in LA that are film critics. They were like,

547
00:29:25.920 --> 00:29:29.480
I loved how the color red represented power and then

548
00:29:29.920 --> 00:29:31.720
blue represented blah blah blah.

549
00:29:31.799 --> 00:29:35.480
And I'm like, what, okay, that is me when it

550
00:29:35.480 --> 00:29:36.559
comes to design.

551
00:29:37.319 --> 00:29:39.720
Not movies. You recognize that or don't.

552
00:29:39.799 --> 00:29:42.319
Yes, I do recognize that, like the design aspects like

553
00:29:42.359 --> 00:29:45.680
the colors, the fonts, the music. I recognize that, but

554
00:29:45.880 --> 00:29:49.079
not the references or not the inspirations that come from

555
00:29:49.200 --> 00:29:50.480
other movies.

556
00:29:50.480 --> 00:29:53.240
Or even not even not even other movies. Like so,

557
00:29:53.440 --> 00:29:56.559
using the same example that I'm talking about, they were like, so,

558
00:29:56.599 --> 00:30:01.799
what was the movie mother? Anyway? After talking to my friend,

559
00:30:01.880 --> 00:30:04.400
you know, my friends that are film critics, they're like,

560
00:30:04.519 --> 00:30:07.799
I love how she represented Eve and he represented Adam

561
00:30:07.839 --> 00:30:10.680
and blah blah. I'm like what they were like, you

562
00:30:10.759 --> 00:30:13.039
didn't get that? And it was like the Garden of Eden,

563
00:30:13.079 --> 00:30:16.559
and I'm like no, there was no garden. And they

564
00:30:16.559 --> 00:30:19.640
were like, yeah, no, it's like philosophical and I'm.

565
00:30:19.440 --> 00:30:21.960
Like, like references.

566
00:30:21.559 --> 00:30:26.319
Representing okay, Like she was like she represented Eve and

567
00:30:26.799 --> 00:30:29.799
the male character represented Adam and their house represented the

568
00:30:29.799 --> 00:30:32.880
Garden of Eden, and I'm like, I didn't get any

569
00:30:32.960 --> 00:30:33.079
of that.

570
00:30:33.240 --> 00:30:34.759
Yeah, I don't think I did those things.

571
00:30:34.839 --> 00:30:36.839
Yeah, I'm like, what, like I just thought it was

572
00:30:36.839 --> 00:30:37.799
about a haunted house.

573
00:30:39.519 --> 00:30:39.599
What.

574
00:30:40.640 --> 00:30:42.839
So, Yeah, I'm an idiot apparently when it comes to

575
00:30:42.880 --> 00:30:45.400
that stuff. So I'm glad to know somebody else is

576
00:30:45.440 --> 00:30:45.680
like that.

577
00:30:46.720 --> 00:30:47.319
Yeah for sure.

578
00:30:47.599 --> 00:30:50.759
But anyway, back to Friday the thirteenth, So did you

579
00:30:50.880 --> 00:30:54.839
know that he actually started advertising it before he even

580
00:30:54.880 --> 00:30:58.000
had the financing to make it. He was so sure

581
00:30:58.279 --> 00:31:00.079
that this was going to be make.

582
00:31:00.839 --> 00:31:02.759
I didn't know that part. Yeah, that's interesting.

583
00:31:02.880 --> 00:31:06.480
And it was originally called Long Night at Camp Blood. Yes,

584
00:31:06.519 --> 00:31:09.240
I did know that, Yeah, which is pretty interesting. And

585
00:31:09.440 --> 00:31:11.880
did you know that almost all of it was filmed

586
00:31:11.920 --> 00:31:13.119
in Pennsylvania? Yes?

587
00:31:13.160 --> 00:31:13.720
I didn't know that.

588
00:31:14.079 --> 00:31:18.640
So the camp at the camp in the films, which

589
00:31:18.680 --> 00:31:22.519
is Camp Crystal Lake Camp thank you, Oh my god, campus,

590
00:31:23.720 --> 00:31:27.720
is actually in real life called Camp Nobi Bosco. And

591
00:31:27.799 --> 00:31:30.160
so I went there no, you're going there.

592
00:31:30.240 --> 00:31:33.880
I already did, okay, because I'm going there this October.

593
00:31:34.000 --> 00:31:36.839
It's so much fun. You go to see all like

594
00:31:37.319 --> 00:31:39.680
where they filmed differences. It's so much and you can

595
00:31:39.839 --> 00:31:43.279
take pictures doing Yes, it's awesome. But yeah, so just

596
00:31:43.640 --> 00:31:47.319
those were just some fun things. There's been twelve Friday

597
00:31:47.359 --> 00:31:52.359
the thirteenth or Friday thirteenth related movies. Jason Voorhis has

598
00:31:52.440 --> 00:31:56.119
killed over one hundred and fifty people in them, which

599
00:31:56.160 --> 00:32:01.039
is wild. But in Friday the third thirteenth and Friday

600
00:32:01.119 --> 00:32:05.880
the thirteenth A New Beginning, Jason Vorhees doesn't kill anybody. Yes,

601
00:32:06.079 --> 00:32:09.440
that's pretty wild. A lot of people don't realize that

602
00:32:09.440 --> 00:32:13.960
that Jason isn't the villain in Friday the thirteenth, you

603
00:32:14.039 --> 00:32:17.079
know what I mean. I think there's a misconception with

604
00:32:17.160 --> 00:32:19.319
a lot of people. I don't know if it's just

605
00:32:19.359 --> 00:32:21.359
been so long since they've seen them, or they're mixing

606
00:32:21.400 --> 00:32:24.440
them all together or whatever. But it's his mom.

607
00:32:24.839 --> 00:32:26.960
Yeah, you know, missus Warhees.

608
00:32:26.680 --> 00:32:29.880
Exactly what do you so? Why do you love? What

609
00:32:30.039 --> 00:32:32.240
got you into Friday the thirteenth?

610
00:32:32.319 --> 00:32:37.880
Let me see, I think because it's such an old

611
00:32:38.039 --> 00:32:42.119
franchise and you know, I was born in two thousands,

612
00:32:42.119 --> 00:32:45.279
so I think that in the early two thousands, there's

613
00:32:45.319 --> 00:32:48.079
not really a lot of franchises that are as original

614
00:32:48.119 --> 00:32:50.000
as this or are.

615
00:32:49.960 --> 00:32:51.519
Similar in this way.

616
00:32:51.880 --> 00:32:54.640
I think that all the iconic serial killers wait, no

617
00:32:54.720 --> 00:32:57.519
serial killers, Well, yeah, I guess yeah, I guess all

618
00:32:57.559 --> 00:33:01.200
the iconic serial killers in horror film are all from

619
00:33:01.440 --> 00:33:05.799
the eighties and the nineties, like Freddy Krueger, Jason Michael,

620
00:33:07.319 --> 00:33:07.920
ghost Face.

621
00:33:08.079 --> 00:33:09.000
Yeah.

622
00:33:09.079 --> 00:33:12.240
And we don't really have Chuck Chucky. Yeah, we don't

623
00:33:12.279 --> 00:33:17.359
really have any prominent serial killers and horror franchises past

624
00:33:17.359 --> 00:33:20.200
two thousands that are really well known art.

625
00:33:20.680 --> 00:33:26.400
The clown, No, have you seen the terrifier? Oh wait, okay, yeah, yeah.

626
00:33:26.400 --> 00:33:29.079
But but your point, to your point, it's rare.

627
00:33:29.240 --> 00:33:30.960
It's rare. It's really rare.

628
00:33:31.160 --> 00:33:35.079
And whenever people, you know, talk about Halloween, or whenever

629
00:33:35.119 --> 00:33:38.200
you hear the word Halloween, and whenever you see, you know,

630
00:33:38.240 --> 00:33:42.039
going to a spirit, it's always the main og killers

631
00:33:42.480 --> 00:33:44.880
that I just aw that I just said, yeah, you know,

632
00:33:44.920 --> 00:33:47.960
and to this day there's still representing this whole entire.

633
00:33:48.680 --> 00:33:52.039
I guess holiday. Yeah, and there's so old yeah, but

634
00:33:52.039 --> 00:33:53.200
they're so iconic.

635
00:33:53.319 --> 00:33:56.079
Yes, And I know that Jason, in my opinion, is

636
00:33:56.079 --> 00:33:58.960
probably one of the most iconic because his franchise is

637
00:33:59.480 --> 00:34:03.759
massively long. Yeah, and it has such good storytelling and

638
00:34:03.920 --> 00:34:07.519
the kills are just from where they took place back

639
00:34:07.519 --> 00:34:11.480
in their day, were very good in my opinion, and

640
00:34:11.960 --> 00:34:14.719
it's just yes, you know, the acting can be a

641
00:34:14.760 --> 00:34:17.880
little questionable or some scenes may be a little weird.

642
00:34:17.920 --> 00:34:21.599
But that's just the eighties. That's the whole vibe of

643
00:34:21.639 --> 00:34:22.159
the eighties.

644
00:34:22.239 --> 00:34:24.719
So it's like it just makes it very different because

645
00:34:24.760 --> 00:34:26.320
I feel like we're not going to be able to

646
00:34:26.400 --> 00:34:29.280
have that, you know, authenticity from the eighties because we're

647
00:34:29.280 --> 00:34:32.239
in twenty twenty four, right, So that's why I like it.

648
00:34:32.400 --> 00:34:35.199
Yeah, what when did you first watch.

649
00:34:35.079 --> 00:34:39.239
I first watched it in twenty twenty one.

650
00:34:39.840 --> 00:34:44.079
Okay, so relatively recently, yes, And was it like you

651
00:34:44.119 --> 00:34:45.800
were just like, oh, let's put this on her.

652
00:34:45.760 --> 00:34:46.960
Okay, no, my friend.

653
00:34:47.079 --> 00:34:49.280
Okay, So in the summer of twenty twenty one, my

654
00:34:49.360 --> 00:34:53.559
friend who's a massive film nerd, she loves all horror

655
00:34:53.599 --> 00:34:55.880
films and everything, and we made it a goal to

656
00:34:56.039 --> 00:34:58.079
get me to watch films that I had ever seen before.

657
00:34:58.440 --> 00:35:00.000
And if you know me, you know that I barely

658
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:02.559
you have seen any films. So she made this whole

659
00:35:02.719 --> 00:35:05.360
entire list of all the films that she wanted me

660
00:35:05.400 --> 00:35:08.000
to watch, and Friday Franchise was on there. So when

661
00:35:08.039 --> 00:35:10.239
I first watched A Friday the Thirteenth franchise, I'm not

662
00:35:10.280 --> 00:35:10.800
gonna lie to you.

663
00:35:10.840 --> 00:35:12.880
I hated it. I hated it.

664
00:35:12.880 --> 00:35:14.320
It was so boring to me.

665
00:35:14.920 --> 00:35:17.679
I didn't understand what was happening. And then when I

666
00:35:17.719 --> 00:35:20.079
found out that Missus Worhees was the killer in the end,

667
00:35:20.159 --> 00:35:22.920
I was I felt stupid because I thought it was

668
00:35:23.039 --> 00:35:26.599
Jason the whole time, and I felt duped, and you know,

669
00:35:27.400 --> 00:35:30.679
the movie just didn't appeal to me. It wasn't until,

670
00:35:30.840 --> 00:35:33.159
you know, I guess a year later that I rewatched it.

671
00:35:33.840 --> 00:35:37.360
And I don't know what clicked. I don't know what changed.

672
00:35:37.400 --> 00:35:39.039
I don't know if I went through something. I don't

673
00:35:39.079 --> 00:35:43.559
know what happened. But I rewatched them and I was

674
00:35:43.599 --> 00:35:46.840
thinking to myself, why am I such a hater? These

675
00:35:46.840 --> 00:35:51.159
are actually kind of good, you know, Like, I don't

676
00:35:51.239 --> 00:35:55.280
understand what made me change my mind so quick. Maybe

677
00:35:55.320 --> 00:35:57.079
it was just when I watched him the first time.

678
00:35:57.119 --> 00:36:01.480
Maybe I just was not interested. But after rewatching them

679
00:36:01.800 --> 00:36:07.280
and really getting into the storyline. It was like, whoa,

680
00:36:07.360 --> 00:36:09.920
this is so cool. And plus you don't think about

681
00:36:10.360 --> 00:36:14.239
how Jason is. You know, he's a kid at heart,

682
00:36:14.719 --> 00:36:16.639
you know, which is wild to me.

683
00:36:17.039 --> 00:36:17.599
You know that.

684
00:36:17.679 --> 00:36:20.719
He's like kind of stuck emotionally, yes.

685
00:36:20.920 --> 00:36:23.000
And there's not really a lot of killers like that

686
00:36:23.559 --> 00:36:27.199
who are like children at heart, and that was just

687
00:36:27.239 --> 00:36:31.880
so interesting to see a like this grown man that

688
00:36:32.079 --> 00:36:34.760
has the mind of a child doing these heinous acts,

689
00:36:35.280 --> 00:36:37.960
you know. So that was something that was clearly different

690
00:36:37.960 --> 00:36:41.280
to me. And it's just the storyline, like I said,

691
00:36:41.320 --> 00:36:42.119
which is so great.

692
00:36:43.760 --> 00:36:49.960
I sorry, I don't know whatever. I love that for you.

693
00:36:50.239 --> 00:36:52.239
I mean that sounds so sarcastic, but I didn't. I

694
00:36:52.280 --> 00:36:56.519
didn't mean it like that. I love that like you

695
00:36:56.800 --> 00:36:59.360
watch it and was like whatever, and then like rediscovered

696
00:36:59.400 --> 00:37:02.280
it and was like, oh, I was good. Yeah. So

697
00:37:02.480 --> 00:37:06.559
I was a kid was not allowed to watch horror movies,

698
00:37:06.599 --> 00:37:09.880
but I believe that I was at a friend's house

699
00:37:10.400 --> 00:37:13.679
and we ended up watching it. And one it's like

700
00:37:13.760 --> 00:37:16.559
for it's kind of like that forbidden thing, like you know,

701
00:37:16.639 --> 00:37:18.920
my mom will kill me if you know I'm watching.

702
00:37:19.079 --> 00:37:22.440
So I'm like ooh, And then I was like, oh,

703
00:37:22.519 --> 00:37:24.360
this is scary, you know what I mean. And then

704
00:37:26.440 --> 00:37:30.639
as I got old enough to watch them later and

705
00:37:30.880 --> 00:37:34.280
became like a huge horror fan, I like really appreciated.

706
00:37:34.760 --> 00:37:37.360
First of all, the kills are very creative, you know,

707
00:37:38.519 --> 00:37:41.360
and I love how you know, with the eighties, it

708
00:37:41.440 --> 00:37:45.519
wasn't like we have you know, visual effects like we

709
00:37:45.559 --> 00:37:50.440
do today. It's like a lot of those kills and

710
00:37:50.480 --> 00:37:54.760
effects were practical. Like I was reading that a lot

711
00:37:54.800 --> 00:37:59.039
of the guts and all that stuff was made in

712
00:37:59.159 --> 00:38:03.519
the kitchen by the staff at the camp, so like

713
00:38:03.559 --> 00:38:05.719
they were like baking like brains or whatever.

714
00:38:06.079 --> 00:38:06.800
That's crazy.

715
00:38:06.880 --> 00:38:10.760
Yeah, So like they were literally like making everything by hand,

716
00:38:10.960 --> 00:38:12.440
which is like pretty cool.

717
00:38:12.760 --> 00:38:13.760
You don't see that no more?

718
00:38:14.280 --> 00:38:17.000
No, yeah, I mean now it's like, oh, you don't

719
00:38:17.039 --> 00:38:19.079
even have a knife, They like digitally put it in

720
00:38:19.119 --> 00:38:21.000
your hand, you know what I mean. It's like all

721
00:38:21.159 --> 00:38:24.079
kind of fake. So I love that that. It kind

722
00:38:24.079 --> 00:38:28.119
of has that spirit of like we're small, like we're

723
00:38:28.159 --> 00:38:31.119
small filmmakers, but we're going to make the movie we

724
00:38:31.159 --> 00:38:32.679
want to make, and if we have to make it

725
00:38:32.719 --> 00:38:35.320
by hand, we'll do it. Like I love that. And

726
00:38:35.360 --> 00:38:37.719
then it's that, like you said, it's that kind of

727
00:38:37.800 --> 00:38:45.719
like stuck in it's like the the the opposite, meaning

728
00:38:45.800 --> 00:38:51.039
like you have this horrible killing machine but this innocent,

729
00:38:51.519 --> 00:38:57.599
like childlike mentality. And then you think about the backstory

730
00:38:57.599 --> 00:39:00.320
where it's like tragic and he's like stuck like a

731
00:39:00.400 --> 00:39:04.280
child forever, you know, and and everything that happened to him,

732
00:39:04.480 --> 00:39:08.519
like the bullying and all that, and it's like, I

733
00:39:08.599 --> 00:39:11.639
just think it makes for a really interesting like ghost Face.

734
00:39:11.679 --> 00:39:13.840
I love ghost Face, but we know nothing about him.

735
00:39:13.960 --> 00:39:16.239
Oh yeah until the end where they do the whole

736
00:39:16.320 --> 00:39:16.920
spiel of.

737
00:39:16.880 --> 00:39:20.480
Why they're exactly and then there's like the next movie

738
00:39:20.519 --> 00:39:23.360
there's another ghost Face, so it's like different. Yeah, So

739
00:39:23.519 --> 00:39:29.440
like you know, he has I think, a really interesting,

740
00:39:29.840 --> 00:39:35.719
rich backstory, you know, which is cool to me. And

741
00:39:35.800 --> 00:39:40.400
so even the bad Friday the Thirteenth movies, I still love,

742
00:39:41.159 --> 00:39:44.320
like Friday the Thirteenth Part three, the three D one,

743
00:39:44.639 --> 00:39:46.719
that one. I mean, I love it, But is it

744
00:39:46.760 --> 00:39:51.280
a great movie. No, But it's still a movie I

745
00:39:51.360 --> 00:39:56.920
love and I enjoy watching it. Like didn't win any Oscars,

746
00:39:57.079 --> 00:39:59.599
you know what I mean, but like it wasn't trying

747
00:39:59.639 --> 00:40:02.960
to just trying to be right The Thirteenth Part three.

748
00:40:02.840 --> 00:40:04.960
And it contributes to the storyline exactly.

749
00:40:05.000 --> 00:40:08.000
That's such an iconic movie because when you think about it,

750
00:40:08.039 --> 00:40:10.920
that's when three D effects were starting to pop off

751
00:40:11.599 --> 00:40:14.119
in the film industry. That was one movie where you

752
00:40:14.159 --> 00:40:16.800
can really tell based off all their effects. And also

753
00:40:16.800 --> 00:40:18.280
that's the movie where he gets his hockey mask.

754
00:40:18.400 --> 00:40:22.559
Yes, yeah, part three, everybody. That's another thing people don't realize.

755
00:40:22.679 --> 00:40:24.800
He wasn't even the killer in part one and part

756
00:40:24.800 --> 00:40:27.119
two he wore a bag oah, yeah, he was a sack.

757
00:40:27.360 --> 00:40:28.760
Yeah, they had one eye.

758
00:40:28.880 --> 00:40:31.920
Yeah. Part three is the one where he gets the mask,

759
00:40:32.039 --> 00:40:35.679
the iconic hockey mask. And that's the other thing. His

760
00:40:35.880 --> 00:40:38.159
mat like ghost Face has such a unique mask. I

761
00:40:38.159 --> 00:40:40.800
mean now obviously you can buy it at Walmart, but

762
00:40:40.960 --> 00:40:44.000
like but like it's like besides ghost Face, it's just

763
00:40:44.599 --> 00:40:48.119
besides the costume. It's like very unique. Yes, Freddy Krueger

764
00:40:48.119 --> 00:40:50.800
has this like deformed you know, that's just like a

765
00:40:50.840 --> 00:40:54.880
mask that you could like get at any you know,

766
00:40:55.440 --> 00:40:58.000
sporting goods store. Like, you know, it's like such a

767
00:40:58.039 --> 00:41:01.199
common thing. Yeah, then to make it so menacing is

768
00:41:01.280 --> 00:41:06.360
like creepy. I think, you know, it just adds to everything.

769
00:41:07.960 --> 00:41:10.960
It's interesting to me that Friday the Thirteenth Part one

770
00:41:11.039 --> 00:41:14.440
came out in eighty Part two came out in eighty one.

771
00:41:14.719 --> 00:41:17.880
Part three came out in eighty two. Then they skipped

772
00:41:17.880 --> 00:41:21.280
a year, and then Part four, which was supposed to

773
00:41:21.280 --> 00:41:24.199
be the final chapter, came out in eighty four. Then

774
00:41:24.559 --> 00:41:27.480
eighty five eighty six they released one, skipped, eighty seven,

775
00:41:27.800 --> 00:41:32.719
then eighty eight eighty nine they released one, then ninety

776
00:41:32.760 --> 00:41:35.800
one ninety two skipped, and then the Final Friday came

777
00:41:35.800 --> 00:41:38.360
out in ninety three, which of course was not the

778
00:41:38.400 --> 00:41:42.519
Final Friday. Then Jason X, then Freddy Versus Jason, then

779
00:41:42.639 --> 00:41:46.360
Friday the thirteenth, the kind of reboot slash reimagining. Yeah,

780
00:41:46.400 --> 00:41:48.880
that one, which came out in two thousand and nine.

781
00:41:48.920 --> 00:41:52.000
But that's the last film we've had in the franchise.

782
00:41:52.039 --> 00:41:55.679
So what was that nine nineteen, That was like fifteen

783
00:41:55.760 --> 00:41:58.519
years ago. Yeah, we're way overdue.

784
00:41:58.760 --> 00:42:02.519
Yes, and he's still iconic, yes, which is insane.

785
00:42:02.599 --> 00:42:05.719
It is. It just tells you, like the legacy of

786
00:42:10.679 --> 00:42:14.440
my God, that's just like shows you the legacy of

787
00:42:16.760 --> 00:42:19.599
the character, you know what I mean. And and by

788
00:42:19.599 --> 00:42:22.440
the way, can we talk about Pamela Varies missus Vorhis Yes,

789
00:42:22.960 --> 00:42:28.440
she is crazy and and the actor actress Betsy Palmer,

790
00:42:28.440 --> 00:42:31.719
who apparently was like a very big, well known Broadway actress,

791
00:42:32.559 --> 00:42:35.440
Like seriously, she took her role like super serious and

792
00:42:35.519 --> 00:42:38.840
like wanted it to be like dramatic and real and

793
00:42:38.960 --> 00:42:42.760
rich and all. And I feel like that really helped,

794
00:42:43.480 --> 00:42:48.920
because she really holds that movie together, like playing this

795
00:42:49.800 --> 00:42:54.960
not tragic mother, but grieving mother that's like, I will

796
00:42:55.000 --> 00:42:56.760
do anything to avenge my child.

797
00:42:56.880 --> 00:42:57.440
Yeah.

798
00:42:57.480 --> 00:42:59.639
And if you can tell that she's a little bit

799
00:43:00.400 --> 00:43:04.760
mentally too, because remember when she was mimicking his voice. Yeah,

800
00:43:04.800 --> 00:43:08.000
so she has some insane trauma that she hasn't sorted

801
00:43:08.039 --> 00:43:11.400
out obviously, right that. I guess killing these teenagers is

802
00:43:11.880 --> 00:43:12.639
helping her.

803
00:43:12.519 --> 00:43:15.320
In a way. Yeah, I mean, and so I really

804
00:43:15.320 --> 00:43:20.400
think that she without Betsy Palmer being such a strong

805
00:43:20.440 --> 00:43:24.559
actress in that film, I don't think it would have

806
00:43:26.039 --> 00:43:28.599
the I don't think we'd know Friday the Thirteenth as

807
00:43:28.639 --> 00:43:31.360
we do today, like the entire franchise, you know. I

808
00:43:31.360 --> 00:43:33.920
think she was so vital to that first film. And

809
00:43:33.960 --> 00:43:37.880
then it's kind of risky to go from part one

810
00:43:37.920 --> 00:43:41.000
where the killer is missus Voorhees, to them part two

811
00:43:41.079 --> 00:43:44.920
where it's her son, because that made no sense, right,

812
00:43:45.360 --> 00:43:48.599
I mean, like it was risky to be like, Amanda,

813
00:43:48.639 --> 00:43:50.639
you're the killer in the first one and it was

814
00:43:50.679 --> 00:43:52.920
a big hit, and blah blah blah. Oh well, now John,

815
00:43:52.960 --> 00:43:54.280
You're going to be the killer in the second, you

816
00:43:54.320 --> 00:43:56.320
know what I mean? Like, it's like kind of risky

817
00:43:56.440 --> 00:44:01.159
because Halloween every film was Michael Myers and to go

818
00:44:01.239 --> 00:44:04.920
from like, hey we have this big hit, let's completely

819
00:44:04.920 --> 00:44:08.840
get a different killer and not you know, magically bring

820
00:44:08.840 --> 00:44:12.800
her back or resuscitator or something. I don't know. I

821
00:44:13.159 --> 00:44:16.320
think without her it would not have gone the way

822
00:44:16.400 --> 00:44:20.760
that it did, so thank god for that. Also, did

823
00:44:20.800 --> 00:44:26.519
you know that the the music that yes comes from

824
00:44:26.599 --> 00:44:29.320
her line in the film?

825
00:44:29.519 --> 00:44:30.239
Her line?

826
00:44:30.599 --> 00:44:35.840
Okay, So the composer, Harry Manfordini he was looking for

827
00:44:35.960 --> 00:44:40.440
like some kind of cool sound that he could put

828
00:44:40.519 --> 00:44:46.559
in the film whenever the killer was there. So he

829
00:44:46.559 --> 00:44:50.679
heard missus Vorhees when she was imitating Jason going kill

830
00:44:50.719 --> 00:44:51.360
her mommy.

831
00:44:51.559 --> 00:44:51.719
You know.

832
00:44:52.199 --> 00:44:56.320
Yes, he decided to use that. So he took the

833
00:44:56.400 --> 00:45:00.079
two syllables from that line of dialogue and then he

834
00:45:00.159 --> 00:45:04.079
spoke them himself and then made that iconic sound that

835
00:45:04.239 --> 00:45:10.360
was what that's insane. So it's the cook cook cuss

836
00:45:10.440 --> 00:45:13.800
from the kill her. Yeah, and the it's from Mommy,

837
00:45:14.039 --> 00:45:18.280
Oh my goodness. So whenever you hear the Killer, it's wait,

838
00:45:18.320 --> 00:45:21.000
why is that so creative? Isn't that super good?

839
00:45:21.159 --> 00:45:23.320
People don't do that kind of stuff nowadays.

840
00:45:23.400 --> 00:45:27.440
Now they'd be like on the keyboard and PLoP it

841
00:45:27.480 --> 00:45:27.760
in there.

842
00:45:27.800 --> 00:45:29.280
You know, that is so creative.

843
00:45:29.320 --> 00:45:32.519
So that's why like the old film, Yeah, because back

844
00:45:32.559 --> 00:45:34.800
in the day, you didn't have this technology to kind

845
00:45:34.800 --> 00:45:37.800
of like cut your way through stuff, how to actually.

846
00:45:37.599 --> 00:45:41.079
Think about it exactly. Yeah, so interesting, and we still

847
00:45:41.119 --> 00:45:46.119
could do that today, but it's like oftentimes we don't,

848
00:45:46.320 --> 00:45:48.000
you know what I mean, Like it's easier just to

849
00:45:48.000 --> 00:45:49.920
get on a computer and have something whipped up. Then

850
00:45:49.960 --> 00:45:51.599
you'd be like, wait a second, let me think about

851
00:45:51.599 --> 00:45:55.599
the coolest way to do that. Let's digest this exactly. Yeah.

852
00:45:55.719 --> 00:46:04.880
So so I love love that. I love it. But anyway, yeah,

853
00:46:04.920 --> 00:46:10.559
so I love that part of it. That that because

854
00:46:10.679 --> 00:46:13.599
to me, that sound is so iconic, you know what

855
00:46:13.639 --> 00:46:16.239
I mean. I mean, you here it a million times

856
00:46:16.280 --> 00:46:21.239
in the movie. What is your favorite Friday the Thirteenth film?

857
00:46:21.360 --> 00:46:23.039
It's probably the final chapter.

858
00:46:23.400 --> 00:46:23.800
Okay.

859
00:46:23.960 --> 00:46:27.079
I do really like the final chapter, Okay, where they

860
00:46:27.119 --> 00:46:28.280
introduce Tommy.

861
00:46:28.440 --> 00:46:31.639
Yeah. That move was so good. Yeah, and it was

862
00:46:32.840 --> 00:46:35.800
essentially supposed to. And I love how it picks up

863
00:46:35.840 --> 00:46:41.800
immediately after part three. Yea like it, like just it's

864
00:46:41.840 --> 00:46:44.320
not like, oh, a year later or anything. It's like NOE.

865
00:46:44.320 --> 00:46:46.719
Part three ends at part four starts. Yeah. Yeah, I

866
00:46:46.760 --> 00:46:52.639
love that, and I love how they returned to kill

867
00:46:53.119 --> 00:46:58.480
the Crystal Lake in that one. Tommy is awesome. He's

868
00:46:58.480 --> 00:46:59.239
a great character.

869
00:46:59.440 --> 00:47:01.320
I like the movie that have him as like the

870
00:47:01.360 --> 00:47:04.639
main character, like those three movies and the franchise.

871
00:47:05.039 --> 00:47:09.039
I just thought that his his character was just so interesting.

872
00:47:09.239 --> 00:47:09.440
Yeah.

873
00:47:09.679 --> 00:47:11.480
In the movie, like you see him and you also

874
00:47:11.480 --> 00:47:13.559
see him grow up. You see him as a little child,

875
00:47:13.639 --> 00:47:15.760
and then you see him as like an adult and

876
00:47:15.800 --> 00:47:18.199
how he's like going through this trauma that he has,

877
00:47:18.239 --> 00:47:20.559
and it's just so interesting because you really don't see

878
00:47:20.559 --> 00:47:23.639
that because all of the characters in Friday thirteenth are

879
00:47:23.719 --> 00:47:26.800
killed by Jason or his mom, you know, and it's

880
00:47:26.840 --> 00:47:30.719
like you don't really see a character development go except

881
00:47:31.039 --> 00:47:31.360
for time.

882
00:47:31.760 --> 00:47:34.760
Yeah, which was so interesting. Yeah, it is interesting. And that,

883
00:47:34.880 --> 00:47:39.440
of course was Corey Feldman who played Tommy. Who is

884
00:47:42.840 --> 00:47:46.360
he's Corey Feldman. I don't know how else to describe him.

885
00:47:46.719 --> 00:47:51.880
But so I think the original is probably my first one,

886
00:47:52.119 --> 00:47:58.360
just because it kind of started it all. I also

887
00:47:58.400 --> 00:48:05.880
think Jason takes Manhattan, which was which was what was it? Eight?

888
00:48:05.960 --> 00:48:10.239
Part eight? Yeah? I also think that was interesting because

889
00:48:10.280 --> 00:48:12.800
it's like you get away from the small town thing.

890
00:48:13.199 --> 00:48:18.280
I feel like, I mean, people can correct me if

891
00:48:18.320 --> 00:48:20.519
I'm wrong, use the talkback button on the iHeart app.

892
00:48:21.199 --> 00:48:25.079
But I feel like there wasn't really a slasher in

893
00:48:25.280 --> 00:48:28.599
a big city before that movie, you know what I mean.

894
00:48:28.719 --> 00:48:31.760
Like Halloween was always in hadd In Town or whatever,

895
00:48:32.480 --> 00:48:37.320
and like all you know, Texas, Chainsaw Masacre was like

896
00:48:37.400 --> 00:48:41.000
in Texas. It was like you never saw a slasher

897
00:48:41.079 --> 00:48:44.440
movie that had the killer in a big city like that,

898
00:48:44.880 --> 00:48:48.039
very public. Yeah open. So now of course we had

899
00:48:48.039 --> 00:48:51.559
the latest scream film, such a good Yeah, I love

900
00:48:51.639 --> 00:48:55.840
this news Screams. But that took place, but like, excuse me,

901
00:48:55.880 --> 00:49:01.599
I feel like that wouldn't have happened without thirteenth Part eight,

902
00:49:01.719 --> 00:49:04.639
Jason takes Manhattan, you know what I mean? So I

903
00:49:04.639 --> 00:49:09.880
think that one was cool. Jason X, I haven't seen it.

904
00:49:10.119 --> 00:49:12.280
Wait is that when he's in space? Yeah?

905
00:49:12.400 --> 00:49:16.840
Okay, I hate it. Yeah, I haven't seen it, you know,

906
00:49:18.159 --> 00:49:22.079
since probably whenever it came out or whenever I came

907
00:49:22.159 --> 00:49:23.239
on DVD or something.

908
00:49:23.440 --> 00:49:26.639
Yeah, I never even finished it. I'm not even gonna

909
00:49:26.639 --> 00:49:26.960
lie to you.

910
00:49:27.159 --> 00:49:30.679
Yeah, I feel like I should probably give it a rewatch,

911
00:49:30.800 --> 00:49:34.480
just to like see as an adult, like what it's like.

912
00:49:34.559 --> 00:49:37.599
But I remember thinking it was just dumb.

913
00:49:37.920 --> 00:49:40.760
It was stupid. Yeah, it made no sense.

914
00:49:41.400 --> 00:49:45.480
It was just like a excuse to be like, let's

915
00:49:45.480 --> 00:49:47.480
do Friday the thirteenth in space, you know what I mean?

916
00:49:47.519 --> 00:49:49.320
Which I don't know.

917
00:49:49.360 --> 00:49:51.639
You know, I could commend the Friday franchise for trying

918
00:49:51.679 --> 00:49:55.199
new things, ye, getting new killers, like introducing a new

919
00:49:55.320 --> 00:49:58.920
main character and watching their development, doing Jason Takes Manhattan.

920
00:49:58.920 --> 00:49:59.719
Those are all new things.

921
00:49:59.760 --> 00:50:05.199
Yeah, but Space, Yeah, that there is no correlation.

922
00:50:04.800 --> 00:50:06.920
With that at all, you know. And it just made

923
00:50:06.960 --> 00:50:09.960
no sense. And I don't even understand. I don't even

924
00:50:10.000 --> 00:50:15.199
know how that even got approved. Like that's just insane

925
00:50:15.239 --> 00:50:15.400
to me.

926
00:50:15.960 --> 00:50:20.800
So apparently Todd Farmer, who is the who's the writer

927
00:50:20.920 --> 00:50:25.000
of Jason x Jason ten whatever you want to call it,

928
00:50:26.639 --> 00:50:31.159
He suggested to New Line Cinema, who was making it,

929
00:50:31.760 --> 00:50:35.400
that the only direction left for the series because they

930
00:50:35.400 --> 00:50:37.599
had done everything else was to send them into space.

931
00:50:40.199 --> 00:50:45.440
And it was released in two thousand and two, and

932
00:50:45.960 --> 00:50:49.320
it what made or I'm sorry. It was made on

933
00:50:49.400 --> 00:50:52.239
a budget of fourteen million dollars and it grossed seventeen

934
00:50:52.280 --> 00:50:57.519
million dollars, so it didn't even break even in theaters.

935
00:50:58.079 --> 00:51:02.760
And it is essentially for like kind of solo films

936
00:51:02.880 --> 00:51:05.840
at the time killed the franchise, you know what I mean,

937
00:51:07.039 --> 00:51:11.280
Because then after that we got Freddy Versus Jason, which

938
00:51:11.320 --> 00:51:17.039
I love, and then we got seven years after Jason X,

939
00:51:17.039 --> 00:51:19.880
we got Friday the Thirteenth kind of the rebootish thing

940
00:51:19.920 --> 00:51:23.000
in two thousand and nine, so and then we haven't

941
00:51:23.000 --> 00:51:28.039
had anything since, which sucks so bad. I've now. Oh,

942
00:51:28.119 --> 00:51:29.440
by the way, did you know that there was a

943
00:51:29.480 --> 00:51:31.880
Friday the Thirteenth series? Yes?

944
00:51:31.960 --> 00:51:32.960
I did the TV show?

945
00:51:33.079 --> 00:51:36.679
Yes? Did you ever watch it? No? I haven't, so

946
00:51:36.960 --> 00:51:42.000
it has it ran for three seasons. It has nothing

947
00:51:42.079 --> 00:51:50.360
to do with the Friday Thirteenth franchise. It's about these

948
00:51:50.400 --> 00:51:54.679
two cousins who like inherit an antique store, and then

949
00:51:55.119 --> 00:51:58.960
after they sell all of the antiques off, they find

950
00:51:58.960 --> 00:52:02.679
out that all the items were haunted or whatever. Oh wow, yeah,

951
00:52:02.679 --> 00:52:06.079
so then they like work together to recover the things

952
00:52:06.119 --> 00:52:08.320
they sold and bring them back to like a secret

953
00:52:08.360 --> 00:52:09.639
vault where they won't hurt anybody.

954
00:52:09.880 --> 00:52:11.119
Okay, that kind of sounds interesting.

955
00:52:11.239 --> 00:52:13.559
It is, but it has nothing. So originally it was

956
00:52:13.559 --> 00:52:18.679
going to be called The Thirteenth Hour, so they changed

957
00:52:18.679 --> 00:52:26.920
the title to Friday the Thirteenth the Series to kind

958
00:52:26.920 --> 00:52:28.639
of have a built in audience for the show.

959
00:52:29.119 --> 00:52:31.880
Oh that has nothing to do with the franchise.

960
00:52:31.440 --> 00:52:33.679
Even though it has nothing to do with it at all,

961
00:52:34.400 --> 00:52:37.960
is kind of Yeah, no character that has ever been

962
00:52:38.000 --> 00:52:42.119
in a Friday the Thirteenth film appears in Friday the

963
00:52:42.159 --> 00:52:47.239
Thirteenth the series, which is just strange. But you know,

964
00:52:47.280 --> 00:52:54.480
that's like like having a Lion King movie the series

965
00:52:55.039 --> 00:52:59.480
and it being about like that, you know, people lawyers

966
00:52:59.480 --> 00:53:01.599
in a court or something. You know, just be like, well,

967
00:53:01.599 --> 00:53:04.440
the lion kid was popular, so let's make this. It's

968
00:53:04.480 --> 00:53:05.119
just like dumb.

969
00:53:06.320 --> 00:53:10.239
So anyway, they must have been desperate, yeah or something.

970
00:53:10.360 --> 00:53:12.559
It was the same studio that made the films that

971
00:53:12.639 --> 00:53:16.280
made the TV show, so I mean like they obviously could,

972
00:53:16.280 --> 00:53:19.800
but it just to me, it just didn't make sense. Yeah,

973
00:53:19.920 --> 00:53:23.320
or doesn't make sense. But I feel like I feel

974
00:53:23.320 --> 00:53:25.679
like I know I watched like the first season, and

975
00:53:25.719 --> 00:53:29.480
I feel like it was pretty like good for its

976
00:53:29.519 --> 00:53:31.719
own thing, you know what I mean, Like it was interesting.

977
00:53:32.519 --> 00:53:35.039
So so yeah, there's that, and then of course there's

978
00:53:35.079 --> 00:53:41.360
been all kinds of things like book tie ins and

979
00:53:41.960 --> 00:53:48.440
video games. There was rumors of a Freddy versus Jason two, yeah,

980
00:53:48.519 --> 00:53:50.840
which would have been awesome. Of course, the ending of

981
00:53:51.000 --> 00:53:53.760
Freddy Versus Jason hinted that there was gonna be one,

982
00:53:53.800 --> 00:53:59.679
and then it's never came come, but there is apparently

983
00:54:00.880 --> 00:54:08.639
a in production right now. There is a prequel coming

984
00:54:08.800 --> 00:54:15.480
to Peacock called Crystal Lake. So it was originally set

985
00:54:15.519 --> 00:54:19.960
to be written by Brian Fuller and Victor Miller, who

986
00:54:20.000 --> 00:54:24.800
was involved with the franchise from the beginning. And A

987
00:54:24.920 --> 00:54:27.719
twenty four, which is one of my favorite film studios,

988
00:54:27.719 --> 00:54:29.880
like all their movies are so good, was also going

989
00:54:29.880 --> 00:54:34.920
to be involved. And then Adrianne King, who was in

990
00:54:36.440 --> 00:54:38.760
a couple of the first films, was going to come

991
00:54:38.760 --> 00:54:42.679
back in the series. It was going to be she

992
00:54:43.119 --> 00:54:51.039
portrayed Alice in the Yes thirteenth one, the original Yeah, and.

993
00:54:51.239 --> 00:54:53.039
Which she was going to come back as her character.

994
00:54:53.159 --> 00:54:56.599
They didn't say because her character died exactly second.

995
00:54:56.639 --> 00:54:58.960
Well, this was a prequel too, so she could have

996
00:54:59.039 --> 00:55:02.119
been her she would have be like forty years older,

997
00:55:02.159 --> 00:55:04.760
so I don't Yeah, that's kind of weird. Yeah, so

998
00:55:04.760 --> 00:55:06.760
maybe it was like going to be her mom or

999
00:55:07.199 --> 00:55:17.079
you know. But now A twenty four has left the series,

1000
00:55:17.320 --> 00:55:21.679
which sucks because I love A twenty four okay, and

1001
00:55:21.840 --> 00:55:24.440
the studio has decided to take Crystal Lake in a

1002
00:55:24.440 --> 00:55:32.920
different direction. So now, as of last month, they universal

1003
00:55:33.000 --> 00:55:36.599
announced that Brad Caleb Kane is going to be taking

1004
00:55:36.639 --> 00:55:40.639
over as the showrunner, writer, director, and he's done. He's

1005
00:55:41.360 --> 00:55:45.280
interesting choice to me because like his resume is like,

1006
00:55:47.320 --> 00:55:50.960
actually he did Aladdin Singing Voice and the Aladdin movies,

1007
00:55:51.239 --> 00:56:01.239
the Disney Aladdin movies. He has written though, Crash, that show, Fringe,

1008
00:56:01.239 --> 00:56:06.519
which is really good, Tokyo Wece, which was a series

1009
00:56:06.760 --> 00:56:09.440
couple of years ago. That's pretty cool. So I'm a

1010
00:56:09.559 --> 00:56:13.039
little I'm concerned that it's had all of these problems

1011
00:56:13.920 --> 00:56:16.519
and they still didn't even have a cast and it's

1012
00:56:16.559 --> 00:56:21.280
been in development for what since twenty twenty two they announced,

1013
00:56:21.400 --> 00:56:24.079
Oh that was coming, that's been a while. Yeah, So

1014
00:56:24.239 --> 00:56:27.440
I mean we're already two years past when they announced it,

1015
00:56:27.519 --> 00:56:32.800
and they've now had a studio leave, the showrunner leave,

1016
00:56:33.199 --> 00:56:39.599
still no cast, and they're in pre production starting over again.

1017
00:56:40.199 --> 00:56:42.519
So I don't know what's going to happen with that,

1018
00:56:42.920 --> 00:56:45.960
but I was really excited when I heard the original concept.

1019
00:56:47.119 --> 00:56:51.559
That would be awesome. And then in January of twenty

1020
00:56:51.559 --> 00:56:55.920
twenty three, Jeff Locker, who's a writer, said that was

1021
00:56:55.960 --> 00:56:59.119
Sean S. Cunningham, who was the son of the original writer,

1022
00:57:00.079 --> 00:57:04.760
pitched a new Friday the Thirteenth reboot that would also

1023
00:57:05.519 --> 00:57:09.199
be an alternate direct sequel to the original film. So

1024
00:57:09.360 --> 00:57:12.800
kind of like, do you know the new Halloween movies,

1025
00:57:13.559 --> 00:57:16.239
like from a few years ago, Rob, No, No, the

1026
00:57:16.360 --> 00:57:19.239
newer ones new from like I think the last one

1027
00:57:19.280 --> 00:57:23.039
came out Halloween Halloween and Halloween Kills Hallow. Oh yeah, yeah,

1028
00:57:23.159 --> 00:57:28.719
so that like those take place directly after the original

1029
00:57:29.199 --> 00:57:32.239
film and skip everything else. This would be kind of

1030
00:57:32.280 --> 00:57:35.559
the same thing. So it would be a sequel slash

1031
00:57:35.719 --> 00:57:37.880
reboot of the franch It would be a reboot of

1032
00:57:37.880 --> 00:57:40.719
the franchise, but it would also serve as a sequel

1033
00:57:40.800 --> 00:57:43.239
to the first one and ignore all the ones that

1034
00:57:43.320 --> 00:57:46.079
came after that. Oh that's interesting. I think that would

1035
00:57:46.079 --> 00:57:46.960
be really interesting.

1036
00:57:47.159 --> 00:57:50.480
Okay, yeah, Calena that Halloween has which is a hour and.

1037
00:57:50.440 --> 00:57:51.360
It has the other stuff.

1038
00:57:51.480 --> 00:57:52.840
Yeah. Yeah, but you can.

1039
00:57:52.719 --> 00:57:56.760
Watch Halloween, Halloween, Halloween Kills, and Halloween ends and be fine.

1040
00:57:56.880 --> 00:57:57.400
Exactly.

1041
00:57:57.800 --> 00:57:58.800
That's interesting.

1042
00:57:59.000 --> 00:58:01.400
Yeah, So it would get rid of things like Jason

1043
00:58:01.639 --> 00:58:05.039
X and you know, and some cool things.

1044
00:58:05.639 --> 00:58:07.079
I kind of like the other one, I.

1045
00:58:07.000 --> 00:58:09.440
Know, but maybe they would take some of those good

1046
00:58:09.440 --> 00:58:12.880
parts and update them, you know what I mean. So

1047
00:58:13.360 --> 00:58:17.239
as of May so on, Cunningham is saying that it'll

1048
00:58:17.239 --> 00:58:19.440
be at least three years till it comes out. So

1049
00:58:19.480 --> 00:58:21.840
we're looking at twenty five, twenty six, twenty seven.

1050
00:58:22.480 --> 00:58:25.960
Why is everything taking so long for Jason? He's such

1051
00:58:26.400 --> 00:58:29.079
a complicated character for these people, I.

1052
00:58:29.079 --> 00:58:32.440
Know, the whole A lot of it came down to

1053
00:58:33.159 --> 00:58:36.519
they were fighting the original people because like the original

1054
00:58:36.519 --> 00:58:42.400
film Friday the Thirteenth was released by Paramount I believe,

1055
00:58:42.639 --> 00:58:45.079
and then a bunch of the sequels were released by

1056
00:58:45.079 --> 00:58:48.480
a different studio, Like they sold the rights but kept

1057
00:58:48.519 --> 00:58:51.440
the rights for the films they had already made. So

1058
00:58:52.639 --> 00:58:54.639
then it became like a lawsuit about well, who really

1059
00:58:54.679 --> 00:58:56.840
owns it? Who really owns the character and like all

1060
00:58:56.880 --> 00:59:00.000
this stuff. So there's been all these like legal battles

1061
00:59:00.119 --> 00:59:02.039
where it's just like, guys, do you guys want to

1062
00:59:02.079 --> 00:59:04.559
make money or not? Like why didn't you work it out?

1063
00:59:04.960 --> 00:59:07.119
Because right now we are making zero dollars. Yeah.

1064
00:59:07.199 --> 00:59:09.119
I've read a little bit about that kind of stuff

1065
00:59:09.159 --> 00:59:13.199
because my friend who's the film critic or whatever, she

1066
00:59:13.400 --> 00:59:16.800
was talking about this game that she loved, Yes, and

1067
00:59:16.880 --> 00:59:19.960
she's so bitter about they killed it.

1068
00:59:20.079 --> 00:59:20.960
Yeah, they killed it.

1069
00:59:21.079 --> 00:59:24.480
And I've never really understood it. I never understood like

1070
00:59:24.559 --> 00:59:27.280
what happened with this game? You know, and she's very

1071
00:59:27.320 --> 00:59:30.719
passionate about it, yeah, because she said it was really fun.

1072
00:59:30.800 --> 00:59:33.199
Yeah, and you could play like the campers or you

1073
00:59:33.199 --> 00:59:35.239
could play Jason like you could, like, yeah.

1074
00:59:35.119 --> 00:59:36.840
It was really and you can't play it anymore.

1075
00:59:37.440 --> 00:59:40.920
It not officially it's been killed and support has been

1076
00:59:40.960 --> 00:59:46.800
pulled and all that. Apparently people have found ways, but

1077
00:59:46.880 --> 00:59:48.639
it's like super complicated and all that.

1078
00:59:48.920 --> 00:59:51.119
But was it killed because of copyright issues?

1079
00:59:51.239 --> 00:59:54.400
Yes? It was legal issues that killed it, Yeah, which

1080
00:59:54.480 --> 00:59:57.079
is like easy. Do you guys want to make money

1081
00:59:57.119 --> 00:59:59.280
on this or not? You know what I mean? Like

1082
01:00:00.159 --> 01:00:01.320
it just seems stupid to me.

1083
01:00:01.559 --> 01:00:03.599
Yeah, And I feel like whenever I look up why

1084
01:00:03.719 --> 01:00:07.519
Jason hasn't returned. I get so many articles about legal issues,

1085
01:00:07.559 --> 01:00:09.599
and I'm like, I don't really want to read all this.

1086
01:00:09.719 --> 01:00:12.679
I just I don't know what's going on. I just

1087
01:00:12.719 --> 01:00:14.360
know that it's a legal issue, but I don't know

1088
01:00:14.679 --> 01:00:16.519
the backstory. I don't know the details of it.

1089
01:00:16.599 --> 01:00:19.400
You want l R, Yeah, I want to know what.

1090
01:00:19.559 --> 01:00:21.320
I just all I want to see is this skuy

1091
01:00:21.360 --> 01:00:23.760
in a hockey mass just chopping up kids.

1092
01:00:24.360 --> 01:00:24.920
Teenagers.

1093
01:00:24.960 --> 01:00:28.880
Let me just say that, not kids teenagers.

1094
01:00:29.239 --> 01:00:30.039
I love kids.

1095
01:00:30.280 --> 01:00:34.239
I just want to I just want to listen, you

1096
01:00:34.280 --> 01:00:37.239
know what. I just want to see this guy commit

1097
01:00:37.320 --> 01:00:40.480
and murders. You know, whoever gets it his way at

1098
01:00:40.480 --> 01:00:44.599
this point is whoever gonna go? But but no, I

1099
01:00:44.599 --> 01:00:48.760
love kids and Jason X doesn't kill kids, right, he doesn't.

1100
01:00:48.880 --> 01:00:55.440
That was discovered in the movie with that telekinetic girl. Yeah, yeah,

1101
01:00:55.519 --> 01:00:57.000
that was a good one. I liked that one too.

1102
01:00:57.760 --> 01:00:59.639
And he doesn't he doesn't kill kids, what I thought

1103
01:00:59.760 --> 01:01:00.880
was kind of nice.

1104
01:01:01.280 --> 01:01:06.079
Okay, Jason has a soft spot for children, but it

1105
01:01:06.159 --> 01:01:08.599
makes sense given what happened to him as a child,

1106
01:01:09.000 --> 01:01:12.280
exactly which you know when I first because I really, okay, listen,

1107
01:01:12.559 --> 01:01:14.880
Jason can be unpredictable sometimes so When I first saw

1108
01:01:14.920 --> 01:01:17.320
the scene of him walking into that cabin filled with children,

1109
01:01:17.719 --> 01:01:19.079
I was thinking, Oh my god, what is he going

1110
01:01:19.159 --> 01:01:20.880
to do? And when he was getting closer and the

1111
01:01:20.960 --> 01:01:22.559
music was playing, I was like, Oh my god.

1112
01:01:22.440 --> 01:01:24.679
Don't tell me. And when you know, the little girl

1113
01:01:24.679 --> 01:01:25.880
opened her eyes and he was gone.

1114
01:01:25.920 --> 01:01:29.039
I was like, Oh, that's kind of cute.

1115
01:01:31.119 --> 01:01:32.440
Okay, that's kind of cute.

1116
01:01:32.679 --> 01:01:37.159
All the deformed serial killers so cute. Yeah.

1117
01:01:37.199 --> 01:01:42.360
I don't even does Michael kill kids? I think he does.

1118
01:01:43.000 --> 01:01:44.480
I think, yeah, I think in the.

1119
01:01:45.840 --> 01:01:47.559
But he doesn't kill babies.

1120
01:01:48.760 --> 01:01:50.519
Because I remembered there was one scene where he walked

1121
01:01:50.559 --> 01:01:52.840
by a crib and the baby was crying and he

1122
01:01:52.960 --> 01:01:53.639
just passed it.

1123
01:01:54.719 --> 01:01:57.119
That's the scene I'm thinking of. But didn't he pass

1124
01:01:57.159 --> 01:01:59.360
it and the baby stopped crying, which means he killed

1125
01:01:59.440 --> 01:02:00.599
him or I imagine.

1126
01:02:00.599 --> 01:02:01.639
No, I don't think he did kill him.

1127
01:02:02.039 --> 01:02:05.280
The baby guys, oh all right, But I think he

1128
01:02:05.320 --> 01:02:06.599
does kill kids.

1129
01:02:07.159 --> 01:02:08.159
I think he does, I.

1130
01:02:08.119 --> 01:02:12.920
Think, but not babies, Like when does Michael deem you

1131
01:02:12.960 --> 01:02:14.960
know the appropriate age.

1132
01:02:15.239 --> 01:02:18.800
I don't know, like toddlers or what if it's an

1133
01:02:18.840 --> 01:02:19.280
ugly kid?

1134
01:02:20.880 --> 01:02:22.920
Well, him and Michael or Jason and Michael are gonna

1135
01:02:22.920 --> 01:02:23.320
have issues.

1136
01:02:24.360 --> 01:02:28.719
But you know, baby's ugly. That's so mean, that's sick.

1137
01:02:30.400 --> 01:02:31.199
Oh my god.

1138
01:02:33.239 --> 01:02:35.239
But we do not condone any of.

1139
01:02:35.199 --> 01:02:40.199
That, of course. That's the that's the fun thing about

1140
01:02:40.719 --> 01:02:43.559
horror for me is like I can get scared about

1141
01:02:43.559 --> 01:02:47.599
this stuff but know that it's safe. It's not really happening, right,

1142
01:02:47.679 --> 01:02:50.320
So like oh my god, he did that, or oh

1143
01:02:50.360 --> 01:02:55.119
my god, that's crazy, or wow, look at that creative kill,

1144
01:02:55.559 --> 01:02:58.199
but knowing that that's not really happening, right, you know

1145
01:02:58.239 --> 01:03:01.480
what I mean? Yeah, So any final thoughts on the

1146
01:03:01.480 --> 01:03:02.800
Friday thirteenth franchise.

1147
01:03:03.199 --> 01:03:05.320
I just wish they will come out another movie, yes,

1148
01:03:05.760 --> 01:03:07.679
for a series or a game something.

1149
01:03:07.679 --> 01:03:11.440
I need something, Yeah, you know, yeah, we need content.

1150
01:03:12.639 --> 01:03:18.360
Content creators. Come on, this is a storied, beloved franchise

1151
01:03:18.400 --> 01:03:19.960
and you haven't had something come out since what do

1152
01:03:20.039 --> 01:03:23.000
we say, two thousand and nine, fifteen years. That's ridiculous.

1153
01:03:23.000 --> 01:03:25.960
Which the remake wasn't even that good right in my opinion,

1154
01:03:26.199 --> 01:03:29.719
because I feel like when I first watched it, Jason

1155
01:03:29.800 --> 01:03:32.119
said her running within the first five minutes, right, and

1156
01:03:32.159 --> 01:03:34.639
I was like, oh my god, he's on steroids.

1157
01:03:34.920 --> 01:03:38.800
Yeah, that was like he was Jason. No for me.

1158
01:03:38.840 --> 01:03:43.079
It was like an NFL one back, like Jason's there

1159
01:03:43.119 --> 01:03:45.719
like holling, and I was like, whoa.

1160
01:03:47.280 --> 01:03:49.079
This man is on something.

1161
01:03:49.559 --> 01:03:52.519
That was such a shock to me that he started

1162
01:03:52.519 --> 01:03:54.239
off with him being so athletic.

1163
01:03:54.079 --> 01:03:57.639
Right, yeah, doing like I was like, oh my god, okay.

1164
01:03:57.440 --> 01:03:59.840
He's doing I guess like push ups in the off season.

1165
01:04:00.199 --> 01:04:02.440
No, for real, he was just so built.

1166
01:04:02.599 --> 01:04:03.000
Yeah.

1167
01:04:03.079 --> 01:04:06.480
I was like, Okay, it's hard to imagine as someone

1168
01:04:06.480 --> 01:04:10.239
who probably eats like dead animals, you know, and berries

1169
01:04:10.400 --> 01:04:18.559
and berries. You're so bilt Okay, maybe genetics. Oh no, Pamela,

1170
01:04:18.599 --> 01:04:19.719
where he's what were you genetics?

1171
01:04:19.719 --> 01:04:25.320
I don't know. All right, So Amanda's final thoughts are

1172
01:04:25.320 --> 01:04:29.119
