Join four old mates on a cinematic journey like no other in the "Born to Watch Movie Podcast" the podcast where movies aren't just watched, they're experienced. Each week, dive into the films that reshaped their lives and, perhaps, even the world. With many thousands of hours of movie-watching under their belts, these friends bring a unique, seasoned perspective where they don't take themselves or the movies too seriously.
Hey there, fellow watchers. It's our time of the week again. Born to watch. Hope you guys have had an amazing Christmas and are settling into a 2024 as promised last week, even though we released love actually as a rerelease because we gave ourselves a week off. This week, we're back to original content.
Whitey:Surprise, surprise. It's a solo pod. Now chill out. It's not Dan's fast times at Richmond High or lost in translation solo pod that he promised. We couldn't imagine that he'd get off his ass to do that.
Whitey:Instead, you got me, Whitey. So let's settle in. I'm not sure how long this will go for. 40 minutes maybe. Who knows?
Whitey:We can, just roll with it together. Today, I thought we'd talk about streaming for the holidays. And now I've had a bit of time to, to watch a bit of TV. We've had some shocking weather up here in Queensland, some massive storms, some very, very hot weather. So it's been indoor sports pretty much for this last week.
Whitey:So I sat down with the family. Of course, it's, it's Christmas time. So we we settled settled in for our, you know, our annual Christmas movie, which has always been will Ferrell's elf. But this year, we changed it up. We went for for Christmas chronicles.
Whitey:Now it's one degree of Kurt Russell straight away. I've gotta say, I've seen it a couple times. I really enjoyed it. Kurt Russell is excellent as Santa Claus. The kids aren't too annoying.
Whitey:The story is relatively believable, but a lot of fun, bit of laughs, a bit of a corny jail house scene, but we got over that. But definitely, we'll be looking at the Christmas Chronicles as as I go to moving forward. Now Christmas Chronicles 2, not so great, probably to be avoided, but Christmas Chronicles 1 was definitely a lot of fun. I was thinking about how I might be able to plan this episode so that it felt similar to a normal born to watch episode. And I thought, well, maybe I could do good, the bad, the ugly, and and pick 3 movies and go through it like that.
Whitey:And I'll tell you what, I almost got there. But what I'm gonna do is we're gonna do some good, the bad, the ugly, and we're gonna start with ugly. And my ugly viewing that I had is a movie called Family Switch. Now this movie stars Jennifer Garner and Ed Helms. The dentist from The Hangover, which we just did recently, and then missus x Ben Affleck.
Whitey:Now this is a switch movie similar to, like, your freaky Fridays or your change ups or there is there's a million of them. This is not a great one. In fact, the whole family only made it 49 minutes in this one before Isabelle, my 10 year old looked at me and said, are we done yet, Ted? And we were done. Now I've gotta say a good switch.
Whitey:Movie is not bad. And there are some good ones. I actually really liked the change up with, Jason Bateman and Ryan Reynolds. I think that's really quite funny, but this movie is shocking. Now it's a Netflix movie, so it's going straight to streaming.
Whitey:We're gonna talk a little bit later about the effect that streaming has had on possibly the quality of the content that we're dealing with nowadays. But family switch, not great. Now let me just explain why. There is a family, Jennifer Garner and and Ed Helms are the parents, and there are 2 older children who are high school age and there's a baby and a dog. On this fateful day, and I'll read the synopsis here just for gear, when a chance encounter with an astrological reader causes the walkers to wake up to a full body switch, can they unite to land a promotion college interview record deal and the soccer tryout.
Whitey:Now I think here in lies the problem is that the daughter becomes the mother, the father becomes the son, and the little baby, well, it switches with the dog. Now we'll get to the baby in a minute. The thing that is I struggled with in this movie is there is, in some movies, there's not enough stakes. In this movie, everything is happening on this one day. So the daughter's got her soccer tryout.
Whitey:The mom's trying to get the promotion at work. The dad who's going through some sort of a midlife crisis with his with his boy band, rock band. I've got a big, audition for the rock for the music deal, and the son who seems to be a Sheldon Cooper type is got a college interview all on the one day. And it's the day that this switch happens and they've all gotta figure out a way to do it. Now I didn't make it to whether they figured out how they did.
Whitey:It. I absolutely didn't give a shit by that time. I made it about 10 minutes into the switch and we all decided to turn it off. It's not great. It's probably to be avoided.
Whitey:It's what I would consider to be pretty standard Netflix fair at the moment. There is some horrible CGI in this movie. Now it's it's a comedy so I wouldn't have thought there would have been a requirement for there to be a high level of CGI. There is so much CGI in this movie that it is, it becomes jarring. In fact, I think the baby is about 85% CGI.
Whitey:There's one scene where the baby, because it has switched with the dog is sort of running around on the floor and it is so badly done. It looked like an 8 year old on an omega 2 1,000 created the CGI. Now, Netflix, you gotta be better. I understand you're trying to find content to fill the holiday period, but this is rubbish. Do not watch family switch.
Whitey:I'd be very, very excited to hear anyone that watched it and what their feedback would be. So hit us up on the socials and let us know if you've, if you've been able to, and maybe tell me how it finished because I've really got no idea. I don't care. I don't wanna revisit it. But anyway, let me know.
Speaker 2:We are gonna make a happy memory as a family. I wish you could be me. I would love for you to be me for one date. I would love for you to know what it's like to be me. I would kill to eat a dozen donuts and just have it burn right off.
Speaker 2:Would you take a picture of my family, please? Everybody say Merry Christmas. What are you doing in my bed? Okay. In my bed.
Speaker 2:Why am I in your bed, mom? What is happening? It's me. Mom?
Whitey:Wyatt? Dad.
Speaker 2:This is a situation that has never happened before. I'm 17 again. I'm 13 going on 30. So freaky. What's wrong with pickles?
Speaker 2:What's going on with Miles?
Whitey:Pickles is Miles.
Speaker 2:Hi. What's my age again?
Whitey:Okay. So then moving on to a movie that I thought and we're gonna say this is bad. I thought that this movie came with quite a heavy expectation and probably rightfully so. Look a little while back, there was talk that Zach Snyder was going to do a star wars movie. Now here's my thoughts on that.
Whitey:We all know where I stand on star wars. I'm not quite Morgues who is completely over it, but I cannot see Zack Snyder ever being employed to do a star wars movie. Now they hired Ryan Johnson. He did a pretty good job of destroying star wars. And I've just seen what may have happened if Zack Snyder was given the reins.
Whitey:Now rebel moon is an interesting film. It has some good parts to it Actually looked really, really good. And we go from a movie that has got terrible CGI. Now this movie has got great CGI for about the first 30 minutes and then it starts to lose itself a bit. Look, here's the synopsis for rebel moon.
Whitey:When a peaceful settlement on the edge of a distant moon finds itself threatened by the armies of a tyrannical ruling force, a mysterious stranger living among its villages becomes their best hope for survival. Okay. So this is directed by Zack Snyder. Now Zach Snyder has made some very, very good movies. And in fact, he he gets it.
Whitey:I think he gets a little bit of a bum rap. Sure. He he has got very Zach Snyder moves. Very Zach Snyder moves. He loves a slow mo, which he does way too much in this movie.
Whitey:This movie goes for 2 hours, 20 minutes. This might have been might have gone for an hour 45 if they cut the slow mo's out. There are a hell of a lot of slow mo's, but he's made some good movies. Zack Snyder. Like everyone, obviously, 300 is is well received and and well loved.
Whitey:And it's interesting where he's come since then. I went through a little bit of a, classic horror viewing about a couple months ago and it started on YouTube when the old Dawn of the dead came up and I, I, I actually watched it. I hadn't watched. I don't think I'd seen the original dawn of the dead for over 20 years. Then that sparked me to go back and visit the the Zack Snyder dawn of the dent film, which was his first directorial, job really as a as a as a full fledged Hollywood movie.
Whitey:And it's really, really good. It's excellent. The original his first movie dawn of the dead. Very, very good, great cast. And a lot a lot of people that sort of go on to become more than what they were at the time that was released in 2004.
Whitey:Now he's and he's gone on to do some other really good movies. Obviously, he's done 300. One of my favorites is probably watchmen. Now the thing with the thing with Zach Snyder is that his best work he's done after the fact when he releases, his door, his director's cuts. And there are some quality director's cuts of his movies.
Whitey:Now the watchman director's cut is excellent. The credits, the opening credits for watchmen is so fucking good. It goes through the history rewritten in watchmen law. It is so good. The, the director's kind of Watchmen is excellent.
Whitey:The, the cinematic version, not so great, but the director's cut is well worth a watch. He's obviously on man of steel, which, you know, it wasn't a bad Superman movie, but then look, Batman versus Superman dawn of justice, not ideal, actually, pretty disappointing justice league awful, but he actually lost the reigns of that about halfway through. We then look at Zach Snyder's justice league. The the director's cut is a great movie, A really, really good superhero movie. He then went on to do army of the dead, which was a post COVID thing and maybe during COVID, And it was it was streamed on Netflix and and actually in mind that it gets it gets not great reviews, but I actually didn't mind it.
Whitey:But then it sort of brings us to rebel moon and this is his take on star wars and it's got star wars written all over it. You can tell that this, he wrote this script with star wars in mind. Now it's quite interesting. It's set it's set on a in a small village, which which reminds you very much of Tatooine, and and and they're in their harvest. And they're in order to in order to get the harvest, apparently, the gods demand that there's a mass orgy.
Whitey:So everyone on the night of the harvest has to pair up and go and have sex. Now I don't mind that, but Megan's a big fan of gardening. And, I don't think anything I've ever done has ever affected any harvest. So I don't know how the mass orgy is gonna have any help with that at all. Funny thing I laughed at in this movie is, Game of Thrones fans out there.
Whitey:Do we remember Daario and Naharis? Now he's the warrior that ends up, having a brief fling with, Daenerys, Khaleesi, the queen of the dragons. And the funny thing is is 2 different actors play him. So there was an actor, Ed Screen, who played him for 1 episode, maybe 2 episodes. And then he was replaced by a much better looking, and I must say, a much better actor in Michael Huisman, who then played him for several episodes after that.
Whitey:And, and so both of these guys star in this movie and both of these guys are on opposite sides. So, we'll call him Dario 1. Ed screen is the the king of a space Nazis. And when we talk about how the the galactic empire are supposed to be sort of Nazi esque, Well, these guys are legit Nazis. They come out.
Whitey:They're in the Nazi uniforms. There's no mistaking. It is incredible. They look like SS soldiers, and there's not a lot of thought that's gone into this. It's just, well, these are the baddest people on the planet.
Whitey:So what are we gonna dress them up as SS soldiers? And it's quite obvious. Now it also stars this movie stars, Sophia Patel. Now she was the mummy in Tom Cruise's mummy movie. She's actually really good.
Whitey:She's, very attractive young lady. She's actually quite good in this movie. She's the she's the hero also stars Charlie Hunnam from, Sons of Anarchy, stars Jimon Honsu from, Gladiator. It's got a good cast. I'll tell you what though, what they do not do is give them any time to do anything at all.
Whitey:We it this movie feels like a Frankenstein of many movies. It's like magnificent 7. It's like 7 samurai. It's it is like Star Wars. So it is a Frankenstein of all these movies to the point where I started to see scenes from star wars in this movie.
Whitey:There's a cantina scene, which is just so completely ripped off of the original cantina site. There's even a there's even a a character in it, which is sort of a quarto rip off from total recall. And there's not much originality to this story at all. In fact, there's not much story at all. It's a part 1 of 2, the second one comes out in April and look from a sci fi perspective, yeah, it's got it's got some good parts.
Whitey:There's a lot of exposition whenever they whenever they tell you something, they show you it as well. So it is not like there's anything left up to the imagination. It's it's definitely the movie that that is sort of not gonna leave you hanging with anything. The thing that made me laugh the most is one of the is probably the last scene of the movie, which is a direct rip off of the birth of Darth Vader. And if this was going to be a star wars movie, I'm not sure where this would have fit or how it would have worked because it is such a absolute rip off of every original thought from star wars.
Whitey:And this movie was a struggle to get through. I probably lasted. I could go 20, 25 minutes at a time. It probably took me 4 times to watch this movie. I put a big effort in towards the end, maybe 60 minutes in a row, and that was it.
Whitey:I was tired by the end of it. It's a hard watch. It is not great. It really isn't. If you love Zack Snyder films, you're probably gonna really enjoy it.
Whitey:If you don't like Zack Snyder films, you're probably not gonna enjoy it. It is exactly what you would expect from one of his movies. It's too much slow mo, not enough story, too much style over substance. Yeah. Look, Rebel Moon only if you're desperate only if you're desperate.
Speaker 2:We're gonna have to fight. I am a child of war. I find warriors to fight with
Whitey:us. We might stand a chance.
Speaker 2:We're searching for soldiers for a fight against the mother world. I could help you. For a small fee, obviously. You might wanna hold on. I'm here to make you an offer.
Speaker 2:To give you a chance at redemption. We are beyond redemption. What about revenge? Yeah. This isn't just pursuit of revolution.
Whitey:This one's hard. I'm gonna call this one sort of good but Maestro which is showing on Netflix at the moment. Now I this is another one which took some watching. 2 hours and 9 minutes, the story chronicles the lifelong relationship of conductor composer Leonard Bernstein and actress Felicia Montelegra who are married and he is living a secret life. This guy was an absolute genius.
Whitey:Leonard Bernstein, you know, involved with West Side Story wrote the score in the music for West Side Story, which was just re released by Steven Spielberg last year. It's a great musical. He this guy's an absolute genius. Bradley Cooper does an incredible job here. He directs again after the success of a star is born.
Whitey:He does a great job. He really does. It's a beautifully filmed picture. And now I sound a bit like starting to talk a bit about the angles. It's a beautifully filmed picture.
Whitey:It's in black and white and also in in that color, but it's the sound who is the center stage of this and not just the music, but the way they use the sound, like they're having conversations and you can hear the wind going through the trees. You hear the rustling of the trees either in a room. And generally when they film in a room and people are talking, people are just mouthing the words. And then the the principal actors are are acting and they're and they're talking and then they dub in afterwards the the conversation. It's quite obvious that these people are talking in the room.
Whitey:This is really masterful sound production. It's really well done. Bradley Cooper absolutely crushes it as this tortured soul, who was a legitimate genius, but Carrie Mulligan has his suffering wife is incredible. Now I have never ever, ever seen more cigarettes smoked in a movie than what I saw in Maestro. Everyone on that set is gonna get lung cancer.
Whitey:Bradley Cooper is not without a cigarette. They are breathing in each other's face. There is smoke everywhere. It is unbelievable. The amount of cigarettes in this movie, it was actually took me out of the movie.
Whitey:It was that it was that much of a concern for me. How many cigarettes are in this film that actually took me out of the movie? And then I started to think, how the fucking hell are they doing this? They can't be cigarettes. It's just wouldn't be done today.
Whitey:But there are, I reckon, 5,000 cigarettes in this movie. Everyone smokes. I know it's the time it's the era. Everyone is smoking, but it is so glaring nowadays, especially now when you don't see a heap of people smoking, especially in, in cinema, you people just don't smoke on film anymore. Used to be one of the cool things.
Whitey:Morgz has got a real horn for people that smoke really cool. He's a big fan of John Travolta smoking big fan, broken arrow. He smelled like John Falta smokes really, really well in broken arrow. This is, this is actually a bit ugly, the smoking in this movie, and it seems to be it's almost a character. The cigarettes are almost a character.
Whitey:They get given that much airtime. Anyway, that's it for my show. Look. Again, it took it was a slog. It really was.
Whitey:A lot goes on in this movie. It's it's it's a hard watch. It's a great, it's a, it's a beautifully made film. I'm not gonna say that it was a 100% enjoyable look, but it's definitely worth having a look at if you, if you want to see Bradley Cooper's follow-up to a star is born.
Speaker 2:If summer doesn't sing in you, then nothing sings in you. And if nothing sings in you, then you can't make music. Something she told me. Hello. I'm Lenny.
Speaker 2:Hello, Felicia. Oh, she's so beautiful. Tell me about it. Oh, she's wonderful. She's a lovely girl.
Speaker 2:What age are we living in? One can be as free as one likes without guilt or confession. Please, I know exactly who you are. He can be the 1st great American conductor.
Whitey:Okay. Now he's the one. He's the one. So those 3 are Netflix. What I have been watching and really, really enjoying is season 2 of Reacher, which is on prime.
Whitey:Now the 1st season came out and I was a little skeptical because the whilst the whilst the Tom Cruise movies are pretty good. Don't get me wrong. They're not bad movies and I guess there was a lot of concern about Tom Cruise being cast as right considering that he pretty much looks like something that Rachel would leave in the bottom of the toilet, the size of him. But this TV series is fucking great. Now I have spoken about it before about how good season one is.
Whitey:So I was a little bit wary whether they could back it up season 2. Now the 1st season, which is these are all on prime, so you can catch them on prime. And I'll I'll give you a little a little sneaky at the end about what you might be able to get away with here. But the first season was based on the, the book, the killing floor, which was, 1997 novel. And it was released as the series on in February, 20, 22.
Whitey:So it's taken some time to come out season 3. Now the 2nd season is also based on another book, bad luck and trouble, and it was just released a couple of weeks ago. And it's about 4 episodes in now. I think the 5th episode would have dropped by the time, this was released. So here's my little sneaky tip for you guys.
Whitey:If you don't have prime, right. And you want to watch Reacher, go and get your 30 day trial, right? Book it in binge the 8 episodes for season 1, binge the first 5 or 6 episodes that are released already for season 2. You've only got a couple of weeks to go. It's only a c 8 episodes a season and you're done and then you can just cancel it and you don't need to worry about it and maybe do it again with another email address for season 3.
Whitey:But my it'll be it's well worth it. It's worth 9.99 to buy it, to get it for a month anyway. So look at anyone that doesn't know, reach out, he's he's a former US military police officer. And look, he's he he develops this team called the special investigators, while he was while he was in the army, and he solves crimes. He's, sure.
Whitey:The Sherlock Holmes of the army, and he's also about 6 foot 7, weighs about a 120 kilos and is built like an absolute brick shit ass and can kill people with the pinky on his left hand. And in season 2, it's ratcheted up. What was some incredible action scenes to a whole new level I've episode 4 of season 2. There is a running with a biker gang, which had me yelling at the screen in absolute glee at watching them take down this biking game. It's a bit of a who done it.
Whitey:It's it keeps you guessing is a little bit of, yeah, a little bit of sexiness. I think Alan Richon, who is the who playing Reacher is excellent in this show. Really, really good. But it's also he surrounded himself with some pretty good actors, pretty good team. There's a couple corny bits, but that goes without saying, there's a really cool bit in season 2 where Robert Patrick is the the baddie in season 2.
Whitey:And reach her in his and his offside are nearly have booked into a hotel room, and and her name is Sarah Connor. And the guy goes, do you know who Sarah Connor is? And Robert Patrick goes, no. I've got no idea. A little trouble there going all the way back to t 2 when he was on the hunt for Sarah Connor.
Whitey:Look. It's great. If you've been concerned about watching reach after the films or you're a big fan of the books and you just don't wanna have it ruined, get all over reach out the TV series. It is really, really good. In fact, it's excellent.
Whitey:I'm loving it, and it's well worth investing your
Speaker 2:time.
Whitey:You've been carjacked. Right? Don't turn around. This won't take long.
Speaker 2:Wait. Who are you?
Whitey:Someone who prefers not getting involved.
Speaker 2:You refer to these special investigators as your team, your soldiers, even your friends. You do not mess with the special investigators.
Whitey:So that's it for for sort of what I've been watching. And there's the good, the bad, the ugly, and the awesome of the streaming platforms at the moment. And and look, Netflix have got a great back catalog of stuff that you can easily go through. And we've we've obviously covered some of the movies that are there available, and we'll be covering some of them coming up soon. If you're looking for something to watch streaming, look, Ricky Gervais has just released his latest stand up Armageddon, and he's copying a bit of flack for it.
Whitey:He's go work or go broke. He's not in his, vocabulary. He this will be funny. I've not watched yet. I've watched all these other ones.
Whitey:I love Ricky. You know where he's Ricky fans on the podcast, and I'm assuming this one's gonna be very good as well. There are people calling for him to be canceled. He won't give a fuck. He'll just move on.
Whitey:It's just great. Now there's a heap of really good older movies that are that are on, Netflix. And it's quite funny. Like, I look at I'm looking at the the modern classics on on Netflix here and listen to this pretty woman fellowship of the ring, full metal jacket. So we're 3 from 3 there Blade runner, which will be coming.
Whitey:7, we've done. Good fellas. Catch me if you can. Bang, bang, bang. Done.
Whitey:So we're 6 out of the first 7. The sure shank, there's another one LA confidential. So there's a few there, and there's a heap we will be covering moving forward into 2024, which we're pretty excited about. I know Morgz is really excited to cover the big short. There is so much good.
Whitey:There's so much good old stuff on Netflix that if you just hunt a little, there's plenty of gold. There's no doubt, but this is what I wanna talk about just to finish the episode. Is that just the streaming revolution? Now why was I owned a video shop when the streaming revolution started to take over? Now for about the first four years of my video shop, the video the video industry was strong, still going very, very well.
Whitey:For the last 3 or 4 years, there was a massive shift. There was a massive shift to Netflix and and and the streaming stuff starting to come through. Now people people would say to me, I would have customers that would normally come in 3, 4 times a week, which I know sounds a lot, but they definitely come in 3 or 4 times a week to hire stuff. They'd say to me, you know, I'd say, well, how you been? And I might only see him twice a week or once a week.
Whitey:Oh, yeah. You know, we've we're we're trying to Netflix. So I saw the end was coming, and it's quite funny now that the with this streaming revolution where, you know, it is so easy now to find or to to access the content Because of this, has there been a dilution of the content that we that we get? And I can use the movies that we've spoken about today as as a bit of a point. The family switch.
Whitey:Is that gonna get the budget to be made into a movie? I dunno to go into the cinemas, but when it's just going straight to streaming, this shit's just getting made and is getting green lit all the time. There is so much just terrible movies that are being released on the streaming. Just because it's easy to do, then I have to do worry about a marketing budget. It's so easy.
Whitey:Now are they playing down to us? Are the studio is playing down to us and thinking, well, you know, we just showed up there and they're gonna watch it. Is this a dumbing down of the consumer? Are they saying to us? Well, you know, we're gonna control what goes on here.
Whitey:And, you know, if if you don't like it, well, then we don't care because we're just gonna keep keep doing it. And we've got millions of subscribers and and we don't care. Even though Netflix took a bit of a hit last year with with subscribers, leaving them. But I just I just don't know. Look, I love a good Netflix series.
Whitey:I love I love binging the series. I think they're great. I just don't know. Save the movies for the cinema, please. You know?
Whitey:And the and the, obviously, since covet, the world has changed and the world of cinema has changed. But please, let's not put this shitty quality stuff every week is something new. Some terrible animated film, some terrible family comedy that they're just throwing up just for the sake of having some content on the platform. It's just not working for me. Sort of leads me to thinking about, you know, how good was this time of the year for movie releases forever in a day before COVID.
Whitey:December was a was a real good month. If you wanted to see something like at the movies, December was was a cracker. You would have a boxing day, especially in Australia. You'd have your boxing day releases, and you're talking about some of the biggest movies ever released were released in December. If I just have a look here about the top December movies, and this is in the US domestic box office.
Whitey:So the top ten force awakens, star wars, spider man no way home, avatar avatar 2 Titanic. God, the last Jedi, give me a break Rogue one let's let's disregard the star wars. Once Jumanji welcome to the jungle law of the rings. The whole Lord of the rings trilogy was all released on boxing day. And so I remember that I was like, I used to have a massive barbecue at my place on boxing.
Whitey:Now I was like, fuck that. I'm going to see Lord of the rings at 9 o'clock on boxing day. And I was at the cinema the first session that was open. So, and the Hobbit did the same thing. They released on boxing day as well, but there have been some massive movies released in December that we just don't see that anymore.
Whitey:It's been disappointing post COVID to see that it's not really carried on. It seems to be a bit of a graveyard. And if we really look at what's out this week at the cinemas and you'll be shocked because there's not a lot that you'd like to go and see aquaman to police migration animation, wish animation, Wonka, which I wanna go and see. And I probably would have seen it by the time this comes out and we're gonna do a, an episode on it in the future with the purple and with Damo anyone, but you, which is a new Sydney Sweeney Glen Powell movie, which I think anyone that wants to see it just wants to see Sydney Sweeney. It was filmed in Australia.
Whitey:She looks amazing. She's been out here in Australia doing some press for it. Another movie, one life never heard of it. And poor things, which is the Emma Stone movie, which I've got no interest in. That's that's the week after Christmas.
Whitey:That's what's at the cinema at the moment now in the good old days, it just wasn't that way. There's a real concern about what is going on with the quality of movies and how that's gonna continue. Look, guys we'd love to hear from you any thoughts on the solo pod. A little nervous. I don't know how it's going.
Whitey:I won't know until I've edited it. I hope you've enjoyed it. It's not as long as normal. Next week, Damon and I'll be back together. The other boys are still with a couple weeks off as they're, as they're recovering from a big Christmas and years.
Whitey:Daymond, I'll be back together. We'll be looking at rebel moon, and we'll be really ripping into that. And then at some stage during, January, we'll also be doing a Wonka sort of a retrospective where we'll talk about the, the original movie, what it meant to us, and then let's talk about the new one starring Timothy Chalamet, which, you know, is apparently quite good. Anyway, guys, it's been an absolute pleasure. Get on the socials.
Whitey:Leave some feedback. Bye for now.
