 Welcome to Adam does movies presents movies with my black friend. I'm Adam, and I'm his black friend. Bless you That was like on cue and everything. I'm trying to tell you bro You're doing a professional here. It's a very professional very professional. We just like to chat movies We thought hey, let's do it for 45 minutes to an hour pick a topic You just let loose. We have absolutely no life. We just our life is literally family and movies Yeah, that's really sometimes that order is reversed. Yeah, sometimes and everything for a well sometimes There's some porn involved, but whatever whatever entertainment we can find that we can appreciate We're gonna go with I definitely agree the topic of today is We've been noticing a lot of movies lately and by lately I mean the last like seven or eight years going to streaming services have been outright ass So I thought hey bless Why don't we talk about the good old days and how things have changed and how sometimes they've stayed kind of similar So the main topic here is streaming movies are now the straight to DVD model I have noticed that I even told my mom today. I said hey remember the good old days. She said what about the good old days bless That's how we talk What about the good old days tell us about the good old days what about the good old days bless I said remember we used to go to blockbuster We used to rent movies on Fridays and have a good time and look forward to after school like soon as you get out It's like, you know what you know, I'm going to blockbuster and depending what maybe you go you live in You know, I'm going to the bodega and I'm going to back past the porn section I'm going to the new releases where they have the bees It's like you enter a completely different world. It was so funny as you see your neighbor as you think it's such a nice good young man He's got a whole family and shit. He walks out. He walks out with a gang of fucking movies We didn't have the big chains where we lived We didn't have the Hollywood video or blockbuster. We had mr. Movies, dude Mr. Would be soft bro. I'm not I'm gonna be dead real with you I didn't know shit about none of that until I got into my late teenage years mine is just like yours I was I grew up in South Jamaica, Queens. Okay, literally what you just said yo, it was mom and pop video Yeah, mom. That's it. I didn't like if anybody who lives in New York in your kids It's like you have to take the bus everywhere. I wasn't taking the bus For as was the I forgot where was that belong so sure I wasn't taking all taking the bus to Francis Lewis to go to a blockbuster and I can get it right down the block in my house From the mom and pop and I knew them too. Yeah, the mr. Movies. We had at the mom and pop. It wasn't really mom and pop It was a chain. It was just a really chain. It was a lesser chain. I think it was only Minnesota based Yeah, please do please do that spoiler. They're all out of business Literally, but they did have Yeah, they did have the like adult section and it was so funny because the main store would be kind of just like sterile and boring Yeah, the other popcorn stuff, but you go through the beaded section. It's like you entered mazizly tavern or something. It's like There's a dude dealing drugs in the corners got urinating on the side. Oh gosh Am I right now? It's like a completely different world in there It's like it's like back in the days with the cable boxes how you go back and forth the chance You can see a little yeah. Oh, yeah, the little fuzzy snow Yeah, a little bit you can see what's going on there. It's like, yeah, so I'm talking about I only went in that section once and it was because I think it Was a rite of passage for any, you know, I was Years old like what's behind that dude you was 13? Yeah, it's about 13. It's fucking old. I was there like 10 You were there 10. Yeah. Well what in the adult section? Yeah, I went right through the beads Nobody saw me. I just went right through the beads and stuff. Yeah, I think they was at the cash register Not paying attention went right through the beads. Yeah, I don't think I just was ever Dude, I went to school the next day and it's bragged about it. Really? Yeah, no bullshit What the school next day? I went to you know, everybody lies. Yeah, I go there all the time Yeah, I go there all the time. Jimmy look there's bless. Yeah, that's the guy that went through the beaded It was more like jacquan or something Yeah, I don't think we had a Jimmy the kids just like stand up on the tables in the lunchroom and do the slow clap as you Walk by pretty cool. That would be pretty cool. Oh, definitely been pretty cool Everybody clapping about you went through the beads went through the the janitor. Yeah, I see I got it as he cleans the throw up off the floor And he puts the powder down it cleans the throw up off the floor. Yes, definitely But no, I personally like the mom and pop stores But blockbusters in Hollywood video definitely took it to a different level and it's definitely took it to a different level But one thing I used to notice back in the days and all video stores weren't created equal No, meaning that the mom and pop stores if you're a movie head You could find movies that definitely blockbuster didn't have and then Hollywood video had exclusives Yeah, that block vice versa that blockbuster haven't in the Hollywood video didn't kind of like how streaming Exactly, that's what leads into it. Exactly. And they also even went as far as some streaming services have like Contracts with actors so they cannot be in movies for Netflix or you know, I never knew that Yeah, I believe with Adam Sandler's new contract He had with Netflix where he had to make like 70 movies for them He could not do an Amazon movie. Well, Amazon acquired the Hotel Transylvania property And they made a new Hotel Transylvania Adam Sandler is not the voice. Yo, see I didn't even know that Yeah, I knew he did a deal with Netflix for his company, but I didn't know what the deal consisted of him Not doing movies with anyone else. Yeah, but Netflix. They must have paid him handsomely Oh, I'm sure they did because if you think about it, you know what other movie was on Netflix The gyms one with the two directors from New York, I forgot the names of the brothers. They did Oh man, it's the righteous not Richard Jimstones. It's some Adam Sandler Jim something the one where he found Jim uncut Jim Yeah, 824 824 that was 824. That's 824. Really? Okay. That's on Netflix. Oh nice. Yes But the point I'm trying to make is to yours is that you're right because if that movie would have went on Amazon I wonder if that would have had a problem with him in it. Oh, yeah Yeah, they just it's it's all comes back around The mr. Movies I was at the owners didn't think Jerry Seinfeld was funny So they didn't carry the movie comedian really? Yeah, and I remember going there looking because I was a big Jerry Seinfeld fan from the show and They didn't have it like where is this movie? You don't even have a single copy. Yeah, the store owners don't like him So they didn't carry the film Very shitty, okay. Well, I guess get it. I guess maybe one of the many reasons that the Blockbusters and the mr. Movies don't exist anymore one thing I used to miss about those movies back in days people who work there kind of new movies So, yeah, they did. Yes You can sit there and literally be like so what do you think about this and they can break the whole damn thing down to you So where now it's like so have you seen this movie? What? popcorn Yes, like have you seen the shit? No, can you tell me about it? Oh, what is that? Like they don't even know what they don't even know what the hell the movie is. That's what I'm saying theater Nothing, you know, it's like it's depressing. Yeah, it's definitely I feel isolated right now the fact that we don't have video stores like that No, it's a bummer my buddy my buddy Derek actually worked at a movie rental store. Oh, so my day or is you know, Derek Wow He worked at a movie rental store for many years I was super jealous because that's the job I was wanted I was wanted to work at the front of a movie theater taking the tickets Yeah, like a god or working at a movie rental store putting them away seeing what's coming out being the first to get the pick and bring it home We used to play a movie trivia game and by his third year working there It was the game was over really have so many actors and movies memorized. It was like this isn't fun I can't compete dude that shit was the best man That shit was the best because the whole point like you said you get to take the movie home before it came out So you watch it and have the whole movie down So that Friday or Saturday or whatever when the whole boatload comes in you could talk about the movie Exactly and stuff and the member when they slowly have like one or two copies of the main movies And you have to call in and be like you have it because it's like sold out They'll have only like one or two copies of the main movie and it's sold out They would have like 35 of some shitty wrong. Yes, and then they would have like two of the matrix of the man Yeah, and then you have that one guy who holds it for like three weeks Right and they have to get a new one because he's not bringing it back at our movie rental place Which I did like they had pics from the people working really they'd have like Michael's pics They would always be more artsy than than Jeremy's who'd have terrible taste It would be just like the American version of Godzilla and shitty stuff like that. I'm looking at the pictures too of mr. Movies. Yeah. Well, yeah, I'm there right now. Well, tell me the story Let me paint a picture for you of mr. Movies You walk in and you feel like a kid at a candy store. Oh my do you have background music? Making it happen Yeah, there's kind of a glow. Yo, I have my parents hands. You feel me. It's looking up. Yeah I look like I had like a legend of Baker Vance outfit on Copy time Like the newsies cap right ready to go to get your first movie tell me tell me about it was me for your first movie You're like Bill Paxton in Titanic. Take me back to the time when you saw your first movie, you know, I've never seen Titanic What I'm dead fucking serious. I've never seen you don't like James Cameron Dude, you have put me onto movies Avatar not seen Titanic Of course on the movies. Okay. Well, don't say of course. Yes. You haven't seen his other two massive hits I've seen a bussy jackass to I seen a judgment He also did Aliens the sequel scene and he did the abyss wait, but he didn't do the first aliens. No, that was Ridley Scott Interesting alien. Aliens is to me is always better than alien Yeah, I go back and forth because they're very I mean alien is straight up horror Aliens is more action sci-fi Did it bug you out as a kid when you saw the alien pop out to do his body Like when he was on the table that was very that was very like at the time Yeah, that was that was intense like that was really intense and he wasn't really wasn't he was like a cyborg or some shit Well, that was a different character. But yeah, there's there's the guy and you know what it actually was a little lighter for me because I Saw space balls before I say it's amazing. It's baseballs makes fun of that scene. Yes. Yeah. I saw six walls next And there's that scene at the bar where an alien rips out of the dude's chest and does the like hello, my baby Honey, that's funny. Oh I do It's funny amazing. I said a couple years ago with my kids. They're still hold up a little bit. It's okay Was it the power of the Swartz? Yeah, some of it's just really hokey with the rings coming out Yeah, that's like John candy RP John candy was great John candy was amazing. So was um Rick Moranis Rick Moran is what happened to Rick Moran disappeared. Well, he retired. I guess what happened They never really retire. Yeah. Well his wife Something tragic happen. I think she died when he was in like the peak of his of his like, you know celebrity I didn't even know that. Yeah, he was at his peak. She died. He got really ill And so he chose to retire and raise the two kids I never even knew that very very admirable the last movie I think from the top of my head was honey. I shrunk the kids honey I blew up the kid he did do didn't he do a football movie too like a kid. Yeah, he did little giants That's amazing damn movie. Are you sure he's in that? Yeah, little giants. I'm one of the coaches. He's the coach of the ragtag team and then you have Paul Arnold is that the other guy? No, it's Al Bundy. Al Bundy is the is the douchey coach. He's hilarious Okay, I'm looking at right now. Yeah, Rick Moranis, isn't it? My uncle took us to see this and everything It was a fine film. It was fun. I thought it was amazing. Well, I amazing is a strong word Dude, I'm getting sick and tired of rod and tomato 36% on little giants. Well, rod and tomatoes They don't like comedies. I think dumb and dumber is that like 60%? I don't know. It's probably rotted. That's my favorite comedy Dude, I mean my sister know that movie like in and out. Oh my god and my son like yeah We know that movie like completely in and out It's kind of sad that the bed like the number one quote from dumb and dumber is big gulps, huh? Yeah, and that was one that Jim Carrey completely ad-libbed like those guys weren't even supposed to be in that scene They just came out. I like when he's trying to sound. I'm gonna make you bet before the end of the day See bass Pick up the tab. Yeah, see bass said that well that gentleman over there is see bass No, it's a cardigan, but thanks for asking. What do you think about cable guy? I love cable guy I was really damn good. You know what let's table this. This can be an entire. Let's do a Jim Carrey episode I fucking love Jim Carrey doesn't get enough credit to me You know what I've been timely to do it now because he just said he was leaving Twitter Which I guess is a big thing for one person, but is that bad? Yeah, no, it's not bad Dude, I haven't been on Twitter in front of trash, but yeah, you're better off being on less social media Yeah, I didn't know he's so he says leaving Twitter. Yeah, big fucking news. No, well, it is For somebody I know I'm getting old like what? Fuck you still make it movies. Okay. That's all I care about. It's Sonic 3. You feel me like for real You saw Twitter That's another thing I don't like about nowadays when it comes to our actors and the people that we grew up watching or even watching now I really don't want to know your personal life Like I want to know you as an actor like you know I'm trying to say it's more of the the fantasy or the Imagination of who you are. It's like I don't want to know what you ate on fucking Thursday Like I don't know how to put it just grown up as a kid I didn't like I didn't want to know what my favorite actor or director was doing There's more like oh, he's coming out with a new movie. Hell yeah, let's make it happen I didn't care about nothing is political views views of life. I can give two shits Right I just want to know what movies he making and what's coming out next and the funny thing is it's always been that way It's just with social media now. It's just so much man. It's way too much It's easy to avoid like a magazine article as we do a podcast right right as we do Let me tell you what I think about religion and politics and everything now We generally just talk about movies and that's very true That's the goal of my channel has always been to just have fun and talk films There's enough of the drama everywhere else. I totally agree, but no, I just really like to watch movies I don't want to know anything. I want to be locked in the fantasy of the movie. I hear you That's it like I don't want to that's the whole point of a movie or a play I want to be locked in those two hours or hour and a half or some nowadays five hours I'm a fucking movie and don't want to think about anything else but that movie Well, that's how it used to be it now I watch a movie a lot of times and I think when is this movie gonna be over yo You should see him when we in the movie theater, you know, it's like literally I have to tell him the path patients Yeah, I have patients. Well, I think that it's rubbing off on you because now you're even like yeah now I'm like he's over two hours. Yeah, I never until I've met Adam You I never looked at the fucking movie time. I never ruined everything I never did you know, I would just go in the movies just watch it not know how long it's gonna be a nothing Yeah, when I met him, it was like wait miss movies like two. I'm like, what? And so until I started watching a couple bad ones and I see what he was talking about Because the thing is a bad movie can be watchable if it's short, but not a long movie. It's just miserable aka barbarian, right? Yeah aka barbarian like that was that was one had to tell Adam. Okay, be patient I said there's so many shitty jet Lee and Jackie Chan movies because they're only an hour and a half long So it's like you get three awesome action scenes and then some stupid filler in between that doesn't matter But it's quick. Okay. No, the Jackie Chan. I agree with the gently Wow Thank you so much to get up and go. There's a lot of bad jet Lee movies I don't know the except for Romeo must die cradle to the grave with oh, you so lucky. I mean, you know what? You know, it's so wild man. I knew who jet Lee was Way before he hit America gonna be one of those I knew this artist. Yeah, you did basically Sold his soul dude. I was an eighth grade. No bullshit. I was an eighth grade and I started collecting Kung Fu movies Okay. Oh, so you watched him when he was doing like yes, I used to get him from VHS I should pay $10 a movie on my leg because they were imported men So the guy who was selling them have the master copy and he would just duplicate them And he would literally sell them and so ten dollars you get three for 25 So I said that's how I knew who he was but we came to America. We started doing American movies I agree. It was wasn't the jet Lee that I know yeah, leave the weapon I think was his first one leave the weapon for was awesome and then after that he did Romeo must die I like Romeo must die fucking nuts. It's dumb as shit. I like I have to be dumb I love it make 15. I love that movie. It's so stupid. I like kiss the dragon. I think it is the dragon with Aliyah, no No, no, no, no Romeo must die. He's got the No, that's got the fat dude. Yeah, the the fun. Yeah fun the heavy black dude. Yeah, the guy who I would bring Yeah, the guy who I like bring over to watch that guy. He's hilarious Romeo must die. I'm gonna suck It's fun. It's it's got it's like a cheap knock-off matrix movie same with the one with jet Lee The one is hit him. I am the one. It's an hour in 20 minutes long. Maybe that's why you like yeah It's really hit or miss in and out. He's throwing CG motorcycles. I'm at the end. Oh, yeah He's on the pyramid pyramid. I stand alone. Yeah by God smack. I want to know when he was there Does he get tired? No, he never gets tired. Yeah, he's absorbed all the other jet Lee's Yeah, I think so, but I'm saying me personally kiss the dragon American wise Okay, I got it's gonna bother me if I can't figure out the name of the woman that's in kiss the dragon It's a white chick. No, you don't tell me. It's not Bridget Fonda. It's the daughter. No, it is Bridget Fonda It's Bridget Fonda. It's like the last movie I saw her in You don't need to I just told you it's Bridget Fonda. Yeah I Kissed the dragon as the shot where he kicks the pool ball at the guy across She's a smoke show in that movie Yeah, she's fantastic. She just completely fell off the earth after seriously that jet Lee movie was the last thing I saw her bro. She did Lake Placid. I Love Lake Placid fucking Lake Placid is an hour and 20 minutes It's so good you're bugging I'm rooting for the crocodile. You know, it's so wild I'm rooting for the crocodile. I don't know if you remember this. I remember everything 1992 singles, okay? That was a huge MTV movie. Yeah, I remember shitty MTV singles movie sucked. Yeah, but the soundtrack was amazing MTV made I think two or three movies dead man I'm way more to fucking I don't think so me see MTV movies fact check with the MTV Moniker like their logo at the beginning with the astronaut helmet remember, okay, if you dead man on campus with Zack Morris You know what that was actually good. Paul gossip. It was actually really good it was weird for me because he had Burnett hair that bothered me his natural hair color and then They did that horrible horrible Joe's apartment with the she was disgusting I was a disgust I mentioned that movie not too long ago. Yo, because if you live in South Carolina, we have water bugs Here. Oh gosh, and plus if you live near the water, it's fucking disgusting Okay, and I always relate to Joe's apartment Joe's apartment is just awful I'll tell you can make I love you to be honest with you I just the Roach thing just threw me off they did varsity. No, they did way more do they say there's a musical too They're like funky They did varsity blues. Remember varsity blues. I do. Yeah, they did varsity. I didn't know that they did that one Yeah, they did I'm looking at the list right now fact check I Was it like back surely they only did three movies You're a liar you're a fucking liar It's a familiar that was that was a family guy, right? Because nothing ever happened Keep walking the only time he ever kept his cool dude. They did the wood. That's actually a good movie. No, it's not You don't like the wood. I don't remember. I never saw the wood Saying that to be just say to be contrarian. Oh, he's these fucking big words again. Can we focus? We're so far in the weeds now Topic was straight to streaming movies that suck. Oh, we're not even even on the playbook dude. We're beyond on a playbook Here's where I was trying to circle this to where history is repeating itself Movie rental stores Had a top shelf believe it or not There was more than one shelf at a movie rental store imagine the kids will listen to this Do you remember what was on the top shelf of movie rental stores new releases in? Some sections in other sections the top shelf Rentals were the rip-off movies. Yo, you're right. See I okay. It must have been when you live that see ours was the bottom Oh, well that would make more sense. No bullshit below. No, see ours was never the top It was always the bottom like say if they came out with independence day Yeah, they will come out with a fake independence day There was one company that was doing all that independence day. It's like freedom. Yeah, but it's but it's independence day Right, it's literally independence. Yeah, because there was twister and then there was tornadoes They would always have a like a copy. I don't know if to be honest They had to have an inside person to enable to know to pinpoint when these movies were coming out Yeah, and stuff. It was one company that was doing it literally asylum Was it well asylum was one of us. I don't fucking sucks. Yeah. Oh, yeah, I mean no seriously like But I think asylum was the they they focused more on the monster movies like three-headed, you know, you know so he had a jaws and Killer piranhas what if though before we talk shit about silence like they email us what I listen to our shows like hey We still your show. I love to sponsor you guys I Like full moon movies. That was another one. They used to do a lot of ripoffs, too But those were the times of video stores and B and C movies now those are like C and D movies I won't even consider those B movies where I'm going with this is those movies still have a home Oh, they fucking do the home is now on Disney Plus. It's on Paramount Plus. It's on Hulu. It's on Peacock It's on Apple Plus. It's on every one of these stupid pluses and minus streaming platforms. I agree or Everything have to be a plus. I've noticed that too. Plus. Yeah ESPN plus It's just it's so embarrassing how these companies don't even bother trying to think outside the box They're marketing departments What if we what if we call it HBO? Plus and then someone's like we're doing fucking max at least HBO had the decency to do something But now they're gone and I think they are doing like Warner Brothers Plus or something. Yeah HBO is going away Oh, you said I heard showtime is going away. You sure? I'm pretty sure I'm fact-checking. No I think it's showtime pretty sure HBO max is gonna be dead and it's gonna turn into If you say paramount is showtime. No, it's it's something else really else. Yeah, you can you can look it up if you want Otherwise, I know that otherwise. I'm just I'm preaching right now I know showtime is definitely going to paramount like they're over with like they're done showtime sucks Well, if I was a kid showtime was amazing. It was great for Red Shoe Diaries Posted by David DeCovney. Remember that. That was amazing. Oh, that was that was the answer to Cinemax I never forgot or I never felt more uncomfortable in my life than when I watched an episode of Red Shoe Diaries and Matthew LeBlanc was on it I don't even know who the fuck that is. That's Joey from Friends. Really? Yeah, Bang with Chicken and Elevator soft-core porn style That that Red Shoe Diaries was literally showtime's answer for Cinemax. Yeah, skin a max skin a max Yeah, that's what I said with the with the channels at night You just press the buttons back and forth from your house cinemax so you can see a little bit of it. Yeah Yeah, of course. Okay, back to it. Red Shoe Diaries. You will be messed. Poor one out. RIP. I watched way too much porn when I was younger Red Shoe Diaries. Don't regret any of it. It made me a man. It made you who you are today. It taught me everything I know today about the female anatomy. That's why you had a kid in junior high school. You became a statistic. Bro, they gotta check this out for all the people who are listening. Red Shoe Diaries 1992 was a drama Dude, I was 11 years old. You was 9. Yeah, I was watching that at 9. I peaked early. Yo for real So 5.7 out of 10 on IMDb 68% on Just Watch and it's right now on 2B Right now right now right now. That leads right into what you're saying Looks like I have something to kick up when I get home five seasons of it My wife's gonna be like Adam. Why do we have a subscription to 2B? 2B plus 2B plus For real they only offered the first season of Red Shoe short for Red Shoe Diaries I had to get plus to get the rest of seasons. Yeah, had to get to Covney in all five seasons Dude, it ran from 1992 to 1997. It was a good run. Dude, I was 16 years old when it stopped. It put me through high school It put me through middle school. I was ready with real women by then. Put me through middle school I was a real women by then. I said goodbye Red Shoe Diaries. I need you no more. Thank you David. Thank you David. You've done your job You've done your job. Thank you so much. Let's get off of the soft core porn and back to whatever the hell this topic is streaming Outside of the garbage copy movies that now have found their way into streaming and for some reason get more spotlight Because that's what we're doing. The big thing I wanted to talk about is how Disney on Disney plus and some of these other Some of these other ones to a lesser extent our marketing and using the same actors from like 20 years ago Yes sequels. Yes, so we have like enchanted to disenchanted hocus-pocus to a Christmas story to I can't believe they even touched that one with the original kid who's now like 50 He's older than us. Yeah. Yeah, and he's playing the same dude. It's just it's just so sad He has both his eyes what used to happen Which I was fine with I could forgive it because they were shout-out to DVD and no one knew mm-hmm Is they would make sequels to movies years later with different actors? Do you remember behind enemy lines with Owen Wilson? Yes a nice little bottle episode where he crashes a jet And he has to fight for his freedoms good movie. Mm-hmm hour and a half Is it it's got to be because it was in and out fast. I think it was an answer to broken arrow. Hey either way I'm in yeah, either way. I'm in they made a sequel to They made a sequel to that like seven years later straight to DVD different actor I do Butterfly effect with Ashton Kutcher. Don't tell me they made a party because I never saw it. I won't tell you that I'll made I'll tell you they made two of them I didn't even know that butterfly effect two and three different actor. I didn't even fucking that absolutely I'm dead serious blade The trilogy they made the TV show then they made blade and movies straight to DVD with a different actor Really absolutely rice Yes, really. Yes. I'm gonna have the TV show Check all day. I have knowledge useless knowledge. I didn't even know they did that So what's happening is those movies are now becoming reality on streaming and they're getting marketed and for some reason the original Actors who oftentimes have moved on to like good films like Amy Adams who has a fucking Academy Award She's now back singing her heart out and disenchanted that was like entirely shot in front of a green screen for $50 and a stick of gum Just miserable looking in a Chick-fil-A card and Chick-fil-A expired It only works on Sundays or or they gave her Chipotle minus the food poisoning I'm a Chipotle fan. I celebrate Chipotle's entire. I like Chipotle. I eat a Chipotle Once in a while sure dude Oh gosh, but if anything, it's just kicking the system. It's just moving me around. Okay, the show sponsored by Mo's The Yeah, so we have that whole situation going on but this does make me go back to the nostalgia factor because This stuff was going on at Disney all the time. Yeah I just don't remember my kids don't even know these movies exist But there is a little mermaid to and leave you know that there's a beauty in the beast to like Christmas wish There's an Aladdin 2 and 3 You don't remember those. Oh, I don't know it's like Prince of Thieves is one of them and return of Jafar is another one That's my sister's error. Yeah, because what happened was the first ones go to the theater. Okay They do well and then Disney's like We don't want to go like full dick in for a sequel. We'll go half in we're gonna go half in So we're not gonna pay the like good voice actors. We're gonna get like Impressionists Impersonators know this shit. Yeah, I know I'm all in on this. I don't even know that yeah And so they shit it out on DVD or on VHS, which was a precursor to DVD So I'm guessing you found all this at your video store exactly. I'm there had to be exactly I did not see none of this. They didn't really put it on commercials Advertise it really like sometimes you would see it in like a magazine like a video game magazine Ad for one of these shows like lion king one and a half I think is a movie it focuses on Simone and Pumbaa Yeah, it's like their storyline. I believe while Simba's doing his shit in the first film Do I use doing that? I was in the other session. I wasn't doing it. I didn't watch any of them Yeah, I've never seen that film and I think there's a third one where Simba and Nala have a kid and I don't know his name Kumbaa or some crap. He's got like a scar down the eye I think he's a more rambunctious one never saw that either. I just know it's there dude I didn't even know none of this. It's all it's probably all in Disney Plus to watch It probably is I didn't know none of this Oh, unless Disney totally took it and I don't want nothing to do with it right now because they're gonna redo it again Yeah, probably with new voices probably same fucking movie. Yeah And that's where we're really at so In the 90s they made these terrible sequels. They were kind of harmless though They just came out Disney profited off of crappy crash get cash crabs now though It's all right in your face right on the homepage and they're like proud of it Which annoys the shit out of me It's like look at this terrible movie that we put no effort into but we're marketing it all all over social Platforms and then you get like bombarded by hateful comments if you kind of call them out for being terrible I hate that shit. Who's why do you don't owe Disney anything to say? Hey, maybe this Pinocchio movie was pretty bad Bro, it's ridiculous right now. I'm not gonna lie. It definitely is ridiculous But the thing I look about it the one thing I think about is this You're right back in the days you had the choice to see it and move on Yeah, now it's directly in your fucking face like it's like like that's the whole thing was streaming It's like, oh, remember that whack-ass movie. We didn't see it's right here. Let's watch it. It's right there. It's right there Yeah, it's definitely right there. Let's watch that right now up and play right now But no, I totally agree with you saying man I totally agree but see why you was in that not saying you was in that section We're looking over there. Yeah, I was over in the horror section looking for like the obscure shit I couldn't find anywhere else and everything. That's why I loved about mom and pop shops Everyone had different sections of horror or that was what you're into like I was or Action or drama or whatever but it none of them had the same movies They don't have the same popular ones But each one will have a different set of those underground or rare B movies to find and stuff like you found sand Yeah, like return to the living dead three. Sure. What the fuck you gonna find return living dead three Like you found sand shit like that. I never really went into that stuff at all I liked horror movies, too. Dude. I was a huge heart I was like all in on like Jean-Claude Van Damme and Van Damme and movies like that. No But see I was like that too but for me personally, dude I loved horror like a huge horror hit to this day and it's a to this day like I'm still a huge horror hit So it's like um Now, you know, it's I find shit. I really don't care Yeah, you know I'm saying cuz it's not as exciting as it used to be it's not as it's like not finding that rare gym I think that's the other big factor is no rarity no more There's no like pageantry anymore big fucking word. There's no magic, you know magic There's no like red carpet rollout for movies when there was a new release in a blockbuster of Hollywood One or two releases a week, I think it was every if I'm not mistaken was every Friday. Yeah, and they were Friday It was a big deal you everybody would rush out and try to rent these movies They'd be gone off the shelves most the time if you knew somebody you were called like the night before you're like Yo, dude, hold that for me hold that shit for me. Yeah, you'd be ready to roll Yeah, it was just it was a fun time and everybody was watching the same movies And they're talking about it which is lame in a way, but in another way, you know, it's it's community It brings people together to talk. There's so much out there now, dude. My attention span now is horrible Let me tell you something when I go to Netflix That's the first one I go to when I go to Netflix to try to watch something I get anxiety I'm like what the fuck do I watch like it's so much at one time It's like what the fuck do I watch like and I usually call you up and like hey, man Actually, I've just seen a good documentary because I'm like all over the place Like being a critic. It's almost impossible. Oh my god. Everybody's like you need to watch Wednesday You need to watch this need to watch this like I don't have time. That's another thing That's another thing y'all like even with Wednesday. I want to watch Wednesday, but I just don't have time Right like I just don't have like I might watch it tonight But and that's a big mic and that's the other that's the other point I bring up with with the time as far as movie length It's like oh this movie's two and a half hours long. There's so much better. Should I could be doing I mean this really got to be good to to waste that much time of mine, you know Like it's worth something Tell me I should question why you think that they have two and a half hour and two hour movies now Where the people's attention span now is worse that funny. It's the opposite It's not like back in the days two and a half hours would have been more Understanding because people attention span was more into it where now people's attention span is like you can come out with a Friday and it's all by Tuesday. I know I think it's they think it's quantity over quality You have to have an incentive for people to go to the theater. So they're like well This is a two and a half hour movie. You're getting your money's worth Yeah, you know when people see hour and a half like well, I'm buying popcorn. I'm buying a soda I don't what by the time I sit down. I'm getting up and leaving again I think there is a certain audience that does look at it that way where they go to a movie Maybe once every five months. Yeah, so to them They're like because I see it in the comments, too. Like why are you complaining? You're getting more movie. You're there longer Yeah, I see movies every week every other day. I watch a movie. I want it to be You know a fruitful event. I don't want it to be something where I'm sitting there waiting for it to end That's not a good movie. That's a chore then when I saw and if nobody's in there, I pull out my phone That's when I know I'm just that's it's over. Yeah, I know I'm just done with this movie Like I'm just here now this to get through. Yeah Like what are you trying? If I'm the only one in there and there's nobody in there and that movie's trash either I'll walk out like I did Jeepers Creepers Jeepers Creepers, I stayed in there for 20 minutes and then walked right out. Yeah, literally walked out I got him just walked out. I was like nice movie trash and shows have gotten so bad with it And it's so obvious. It's so obvious. They're patting out these shows that should have been movies to begin with Especially the Disney side of things on Disney I would agree with you too with I watched the only one episode of the what's the Marvel one Moon night. I watched one episode awful I couldn't even I could barely get to the one episode Watch three and I was like now. I'm done. Yes, and I'm done our family Tried watching like every one of these Marvel shows and we could not get past it every time It was the third episode. It's like there's still four more of these. What are they doing? Yeah, man They just drag drag they drag and or was like that I really liked the third the third episode really tied the first two together. Yeah, this is good I can see why they released all three at once because the first two were a little bit of a chore to sit through But then I was like, I don't really need to go on anymore. I'm kind of good They didn't finish, you know what I noticed I started doing what you said I saw the fast-forward and the talking seems to get into the action part. That's what my wife does Really depressing dude, I started doing that like yeah, because I would recommend certain shows to friends of mine Yeah, and I'll be like I'm gonna warn you I fast forward certain parts because I just my attention just can't hang with it It's just boring. I know we've done that I've done that recently two times now total in my life and they were within the last year and one was during Dahmer I think it was a dude. I was five or six and you fast forward dude. I do that too. I do that Going it's not even about Dahmer anymore And I just wasn't interested in like one of the side characters and then I did it in the boys Yeah, I've done it to the boys really liked and I'm like I don't give a fuck about Frenchy anymore shut up with Frenchy and I did it today. Sorry coach. I did today one show you put me on to um Midnight Mass I fast forward a lot really A lot of dialogue was just too much man. I totally agree with you Really kind of awkward dialogue to a good show. Yeah, but the dialogue was just overkill Yeah, I really liked that show your dialogue was just overkill man Yeah, it was just like fast forward fast forward It's a show that could have been cut in half and you really wouldn't have lost anything Yeah, but the dialogue just took it to all like what people going on like monologue a lot of monologues Yeah, and I was just like man. There's a TV show And stuff so yeah, no dude you did it get a second season of that I Don't know if he's going to heat the director who did he has that hole The hunt doesn't do the haunting movies to the hunting shows the haunting of Hill House. Oh, he does that too I think that's good. I heard it's really good He has two different ones of that and then he has midnight mass And I think they're all kind of in that same universe, so I think you'll probably go on to do a different show Oh, yeah, the um the overarching plot or overarching if you will I don't really know which way to say that word is big words Is that a lot of the magic like we said is it's kind of slipped away now You don't have the oh on Fridays. We watch friends on Saturday Yep, I remember those days man, and it's like it's such a like such a pathetic privilege thing to complain about Having too much material, you know too much stuff to watch but too much of anything is not good for you I agree. I'm gonna be honest with you me. Okay. I look at it this way Oh, me as a kid now. I probably would have definitely been like oh my gosh in my head But we don't know that like you can I try to take is right now was overkill me as an adult is over. I have kids So how do they feel they don't ever has to watch anything. That's what I'm saying So I guess not yeah anything because there's everything. It's too much. There's way too much They're not like psyched at all. I think the only time my daughter was ever kind of pumped for a show was stranger things and By this last season she was out way before me and Lindsay were do that season trash It's so again the episodes are like two hours long bro Let me put it to you this way I went ahead and got AMC plus mixed with shutter. Yeah, and ask me how many times I watch anything I can't imagine you even do that. I fucking I have even watched nothing. Yeah, I'm watching nothing like this Absolutely nothing on there like this in general just so much shit. I'm just like Well, yeah, you gave me a couple weeks ago access to your stream. Yes, I still haven't Touched it because I have a bunch my own. I don't watch hardly anything on there It's just too much too much crap I gave you mine and I have my own and I haven't even watched I don't even watch it for I get it for everybody else basically and it's the worst because everybody's doing the same thing You have one or two shows that you like from peacock. Yes one show that you like from Hulu two shows You like from this. It's like well if you cancel it, then you don't get access to it They know they have you by so you're basically paying for those one or two shows you're paying for cable Basically, it's like almost worse at this point. Well, see that is the difference between the streaming now and how it was at the movie That stores. Yeah, basically, it's like you see it you walk by it you get a good movie You go home now. It's like you have to go through so much junk to find one good movie, right? You found saying like that. I hate that and like and the magic is just it's just not the same man It's just not the same it's not the same magic It's not the same thrill to find something and so like when you find that movie like I can't remember last time I found that movie well in so many of the movies that they are making that are exclusives the red notices the They're not even made well the disenchanted that they're so poorly. That's all I said I even made they look like straight to DVD even the good ones are just kind of like, okay You could tell and one thing I've noticed about these straight exclusives for these companies I've noticed is that it's definitely longer and I think if it was released in the theaters It would have been cut down probably like by a half hour right in general I think it's like literally the director or the editor whoever gets more freedom and stuff on the straight to DVD stuff Well, we say straight to streaming then he wouldn't theater which makes it kind of worse if the movies bad, right? So yeah, I'm with you on that one. This is the magic is completely gone Magician kids right now. I'm in the movie kids. Yeah, I'm just seeing that now. I should like you were probably totally overlooking Oh, absolutely. Like you were totally overlooking like it will come out right now. You'd be like, okay, I'm not a senior Yeah, I've been outside. What are you doing Friday? Like if I'm saying like you wouldn't even movie my my brother Texted me two days ago. He said hey, you should watch wonder. Have you seen wonder like wonder from like eight years ago or something? Yeah, I saw that it was fine And then I go on Netflix and there's a movie called though wonder and that's what he's referring to The movies just come out. You don't have no any idea. They're just released one day They're gone the next something else shows up washrooms repeat No one has time to like talk or digest or even get excited. Yeah, it's not exciting at all Like they got this one show now on Netflix. I've got the name of it the plane crash one or something They go through time and they come back. I forgot the name of that show But that's literally a ripoff of the 4400 sounds like five different shows. Well, it's fucking lost It's basically a fake-ass lost. It's definitely a fake-ass lost The thing that sucks about all of this is on the one hand You have all the noise on the streaming and on the other hand you have the theater which is dying Which is a sad thing because I look forward to the theater. That's all I look forward to you I told somebody at the other day. I said somebody I told the other day. I forgot who it was and I said, yo I really don't watch movies at my house because I don't have my first one I'm certainly not not the same way you watch exactly So when I do watch at the house like I don't have time number one and when I do watch it I'm so occupied with other things that I'm not but when I go to the theater my focus is on the movie and stuff You feel I'm saying yeah, unless unless it is strike it rich and become a multi-millionaire and I build like this massive Myself I've always wanted my own theater and then it's just me in there and like some close friends that I know aren't going to Be dicks that's about the only scenario. I can see where we have a good win here in about 10 years Am I one of those friends? Yeah, of course. Okay, of course. Yeah It'll be you and I hanging out in a private theater. That's that's the end game at this point Non-sexual well, we'll see Yo, but I always wanted my own theater Yeah, I looked at Drake's house one day my friend came over here and he said bro If you really want to question your life look at Drake's house And I looked at Drake's house this dude has a movie theater a basketball Everything that I would want a basketball court a full basketball court a movie a fucking real theater like you would pay AMC and stuff the popcorn machine, right? $12 for a soda dude like man I've always wanted a home movie. There's always wanted this close the door my my business don't want a movie Leave me alone think about You know multi-billionaires or even I think there's a trillionaire now. Is it yeah I think there is a trillionaire to but think about um Elon Musk. He dropped 44 billion dollars on Twitter Let me see his money just laying around. He could have he could have opened up like his own movie theaters and Man, you could have done so much cool shit with 44 billion dollars to buy Twitter with it. What a stupid ass Yeah, I don't know dude Like I said, yo my plan and I grew each one in game part is to have my own movie theater Yeah, I already looked up chairs like at night I look up chairs and stuff like with soundproof and I'm a need all that Then you have to go even further with it though and make your movie premieres like an event Yes, you have to like look at movies are really seen on streaming because there's nothing going to theaters anymore And well then again, they'll be shitty movies, too They'll be like how digital green screen movies bro. I love you so not man Me personally like I would totally make it a movie night with popcorn food everything, you know I'm saying yeah, I mean it'd be amazing. It'd be amazing time amazing time Well, I think that's a good way to stop this conversation on a high happy note. Yes I mean we've been running for an hour and a half That's how good the conversation was it was I thought it you know it went to red shoe diaries It took a left turn a couple times down some sketchier paths, but we got back here But the umbrella was the movies at the at the Hollywood videos sure so we ended it off right now at that point We came right back around we came full circle And I guess that's the best we can ask for with a couple ADD individuals. You ain't lying bro. Yeah fucking medicine Appreciate you listening watching along with us Let me know in the comments if you remember the glory days of going to the movie rental stores Or if you've heard them from your parents and thought wow, what a crazy wild time to be alive Now I got to do something else because I can't sit still for five seconds Subscribe if you haven't like the video if you had a good time Hope to hear from you in the future and until then take care.
