 here we go what's going on everyone welcome to a brand new sweet podcast we got you got me and cody we're back we're doing another podcast we're catching up doing some things it's been a long time cody how you been man you know we haven't done a podcast in a couple of weeks i've missed it we've all been busy but we're here we got a big lineup of stuff to talk about today and that's going to be fun man yeah that's going to be really fun and you're right i mean i think busy is the very definition that we should use here because both of us have been between screenings on screenings and work on everything on your end and school and work and everything else it's it's been nuts and it's it's kind of like not really being able to catch your breath but we are back and this is awesome i miss this yeah i do too this is like literally my favorite thing to make it's just casual talking people talking about movies about video games well pretty much everything we're talking about today's yeah movies but uh you know it is the sweet podcast that's what we're doing i'm zack you're cody and that's what we're doing today uh for the new listeners if you're here thanks so much for watching and or listening whatever you're doing it on we appreciate that a ton but uh yeah so what's been going on with you man i know you've been writing some things i don't think you've mentioned that on the podcast i don't know if you want to get that a little plug right now yeah sure why not so at the beginning of the new school semester i went up to the school's paper and i was like hey so you don't have a movie section and i think i would be a good candidate for this since i see movies pretty much every single week and they're like yeah we've been actually searching for somebody so the editor-in-chief had me send a piece of writing to her just so she could judge on whether she thought i would be a good pick for them and she read it she said she really liked it and the the person they my personal editor for the paper he said he really enjoyed the article as well so now i'm writing for them and i've also got a couple of podcasts going on with the school's radio station so and that's perfect and that's a great example of people who want to get in the things just network just start just make a blog at first just start doing something with it and then show them hey this is what i'm doing do you want me to do it tons of school papers should do movies i i i think every single publication and something should have something related to entertainment and movies i think movies is one of the things that brings a lot of people together and unnecessarily even if you don't think you're going to get along with some people there's people after high school that i never thought i would ever talk to you and a lot of them message me and they're like hey what movies have you seen lately so i i'm trying to see some movies i'm like you want to talk to me about okay and it's funny how that works so that that goes a great thing that that's nice to see in there a good article yeah but i know you did one on cabin the woods which yeah i love cabin woods and the ones i've done so far is a simple favor which came out at the god the ending was bad but everything i know that i i gave it a c- and it's hot like i still stick by that c- i still recommend to see it i guess but i just hated the ending i hate the ending movie and the ending is bad but somehow it didn't bother me but after that i did an article for cabin in the woods the baba duke oh yes and then the most recent one is not generally over any film because i'm actually working on a very particular film article right now but it's more or less how horror films today are very much like what the grim brothers or grim brothers fairy tales were back in the day 200 years ago where it's just stories presented that are really horrific and awful to watch that people probably shouldn't watch or read about but they do and they get some kind of sick enjoyment out of it but yeah very much so uh hereditary yes they get so is that a movie was boring i'm not even getting it's too early in the morning on my time i'm not even doing my voice it's too early for the trolls it's too early for the trolls you know hereditary so what's enough enough with me or or halloween sucked oh i've gotten that on my video but anyway sorry about halloween in a little bit though yeah anyway so zach what's new with you enough about me newspapers and everything that's not what's being called duty black ops for got to talk about some video games on here it is best call duty since call duty modern warfare 2 i'm stating that planning my flag in the ground i love this game i haven't been this is addicted to a call duty in a very long time the zombies mode is easily the best in a while the maps are insanely fun it goes back to kind of the basic things with a lot of customizable things which i just think is fantastic i think the multiplayer is very buggy right now but when it's not buggy it's fun as hell and blackout mode which is kind of like their fortnite mode or pub g mode whatever you want to call it where it's 1v80 people maybe 100 i haven't really counted but it's a blast the map is beautiful it has a bunch of little easter eggs in it and it's just so much fun with friends uh it's a game that if you're a big multiplayer person you got to pick it up there is no campaign which i don't it didn't really bug me and i just bug some people but i i'm just glad that they're going straight to multiplayer and zombies and folks seeing a lot of things that people really do play i know people play the campaign but i mean this is like the big features and i really like it zombies get three maps starting usually it's only one that that's awesome i'm big all it plays zombies have time i have like literally already like 17 hours in zombies wow so i play like three hours a day of that shit so but i i really like black house four and then of course uh after friday none of you guys will hear from me because red dead two comes out so but no i have to make time for other things but uh red dead but i will say this end of january when kingdom hearts three comes out no one will hear from me like that much no at least two weeks like i'm i think i'm gonna like probably do like one or two reviews like those weeks but besides that like nothing like i'm social media gone everything gone i'm just gonna be gone for a while the earth pretty much that's what's gonna feel like i mean because you get i remember you talking about spider-man you said you were gonna give yourself a couple of days to beat that with king i'd not be i'd be spider-man real fast yeah with kingdom hearts didn't they say something along the lines that it's like 80 plus hours of gameplay so that was debunked so the story is supposed to be six it's 40 to 60 hours is the story which is longer than the one and two already because one was like 20 and then two was like 25 30 so this one's gonna be it's 40 to 60 with most most of the play runs going from 55 to 60 hours and then there's an additional 150 hours for additional things in it i mean jeez that makes it the longest kingdom yeah but the thing about kingdom hearts is that i i love the game so much that i will probably like i usually like once i beat it i'll go back through it um yeah most likely i will most likely like the second i beat kingdom hearts three i'll probably just start another playthrough and go through it and a lot of squaring says games are like that like um final fantasy the last one that came out with nox is it or ignoces or whatever with his four other friends is one of the best games i've like ever played a special final fantasy i had no hope for that game and it was amazing cody i really recommend it to you if you want to get into a really big rpg um before kingdom hearts because you'd be if you go and get this today like you'd be able to beat kingdom hearts you'd be able to beat it before kingdom hearts if you put like a like an hour or two a day into it um which trust me you won't you'll want to keep playing but it's really good and it's like only 15 bucks now it's such a good game and i cannot recommend it enough plus i haven't played it since but there's one level in it that is absolute trash it's so bad but they fixed it and i don't know what they fixed in it but they completely changed the level because it's completely different than the rest of the game they changed it and the ending's great like the boss battles are insane like it is a fun ass game and like the combat's like kingdom hearts it's not like turn-based like normal final fantasy so if if kingdom like when i played this i was like this is the same team put making kingdom hearts through right now like i'm so hyped so if you want more hype to get on board get final fantasy 15 well i i guess i'll i'm gonna have to look into that but i know for a thing that this next uh this next week is going to be very busy as in besides school and all that other stuff is horror oriented stuff i'm gonna be kind of packed because i i already made a promise to you that i'm going to i'm going to and it's not going to be today because i have essays and stuff to work on but thursday i don't really have anything school wise anything going on so i'm gonna hunker down and watch evil dead two and army of darkness i want to do reviews for all three of the evil dead films and then and then you're making me horny oh jeez i hope not happy happy time happy time murder you have a time murdered and then this uh this weekend i plan on buying uh the hd remastered edition of the first resident evil game because i want to review that and then you know apostle aside i want to take some time and actually binge the entirety of the haunting of hill house because yeah that's a show i've been bad at i i'm like only on episode five but i've been so obsessed with daredevil which yeah i want you to watch so we yet review it okay look i i will get to it i one episode a day you could finish it in a week almost a week okay i i will have to do that but here's here's a little fun fact for people who don't know i'm pretty sure that netflix is haunting on a hill house like what mike planigan did last year with jeralds game it's actually a a book adaptation partially and can i say this though uh before i we are gonna move on to the first topic um yeah because i know the trolls are probably going oh where's the halloween spoiler reveal we're getting we're getting i'm never coming back here again yeah please don't i don't want you but um people keep saying this is the scariest series and it is thrilling but the thing with flanigan's but the things with flanigan's films this is what i'm gonna say flanigan's films aren't jump scary there's some jump scares but they're not scary he builds atmosphere and tension i've been able to sleep fine after watching the show the thing that gets me is when i'm watching the show i'm in that atmosphere i'm on i feel like i'm there even if i'm at home it's not like i'm in a theater i'm literally i feel like i'm there and i feel like that is what this show does so well in every film he's ever crafted we g2 after i saw it in the theaters i felt like i was there i went home and i slept fine but in the moment i was scared oculus same way gerald's game same way you felt like you were tied to that bed naked about to get f'd by some musky moonlight man and um what was the other film he did uh hush another one that you feel like you brilliant that's what that's what he does so well and i love that about him as a director and just his standpoint as a person and what he does and i i think a lot of people can agree with that that he doesn't he makes scary stuff but it works and might i say i'm so excited for dr sleep yeah i mean he's without a doubt one of the best if not the best director in horror today i mean i love james i love james one as a director but as far as as far as what he's done horror wise besides the conjuring too i mean and that was two years ago i mean i can't wait to see i can't wait to see what james one does next besides aquaman because i would really like to see him go back to his horror roots but my plan of my plan again is awesome and if if before we get to halloween or our first topic or anything and before the the trolls have their day i will say that the trailer for the trailer for the new adaptation of pet cemetery i think it looks amazing looks good i'm out of it i don't like the original i think the originals just fine to be honest that's just me at least the music in the trailer for pet cemeteries yeah no the the trailer is really good and i like that jason clarkson i love jason clark i love that guy he's so good in first man they've also got john lithgow which i was actually a little surprised by but all right so we should probably the first topic halloween's coming up but guess what we're not talking about halloween spoiler review yet we are getting into that next that's gonna be our next topic as we're talking about the box office then we're gonna go into our spoiler review discussing about it and this is entertaining because i still don't know what kody thinks about this movie because they didn't make a start us he didn't make a review about it so this is gonna be very entertaining kody don't tell me what we get there because i i don't know what you're feeling and this might be a really fun discussion or maybe not but we are gonna talk about our top five movies to watch on halloween so um i actually have more than um five so i am gonna do um an honorable mentions and then go into my actual list okay but how we're gonna do is i'm gonna do my honorable mentions you're gonna do yours i'm gonna go five you go five i go four you go four yada yada yada all right yeah so uh first honorable mention is rosemary's baby i i've watched it once i think it's a very good horror film and it's one that needs to be watched um another one that is fantastic that i need to rewatch soon is scream i think scream is just such a great thing on the genre that just makes it so much fun um my next one is insidious one and two i love the insidious franchise but at the same time the first one i do not think is that scary so i think that's one that needs to kind of times be looked at and of course let me see one two three four five three um my other three honorable mentions this is a little bit hard cutting them down um i hate to do this um i don't want to do this but uh evil dead to an army of darkness are all my honorable mentions i i i've picked i i feel like they're a blast to watch and they're probably like personally for me my favorite horror films of all time but they don't make the cut for me as what films i think need to be watched on halloween and then of course my last one is nightmare before christmas i love this film but for me i find it to be also more of a christmas movie so it's one of those films that you should watch but still what's your honorable mentions kody okay so my honorable mentions this is probably going to be a little spoiler for our discussion later on but my honorable mentions are number one is uh happy death day i think if you just want if you just want a fun horror movie to watch with your friends like if you're having a halloween party i think this is definitely one that you and your friends can watch and have a lot of fun same thing with scream like i would put happy death day in the same tone with scream because scream is scream is not only funny it's a blast it's kind of how i think about happy death day it's just a fun campy horror movie that pokes fun at the genre uh next up is the descent that's one that i caught two months ago and i remember when we did our top five horror movies a little while ago this is one that you recommended checked it out i loved it uh i wouldn't yeah i love the descent i wouldn't say insidious two for me but insidious is also on here for an honorable mention which one do you like more one or two uh one like i i no second one scarier well first scare factors yes i think the first one is a better made film though i will go with you okay um next up i'm getting as we've discussed i'm getting to the other two evil dead films in the franchise but i would also put evil dead the first film in my honorable mentions and the and the remake as well i really i really like you know don't breathe that's a good one oh that is a good one and uh this is definitely this is definitely a uh spoiler we're down the road but halloween 2018 is in my honorable mentions oh wow i honestly thought you didn't like the film when we were talking about it yesterday we'll get we'll get into it actually you know i'm taking it out of my honorable mentions and we'll get to that in a second but okay all right so let's get into our list my number five is gonna be cabin in the woods i love this movie i want to give a little bit back around it can i tell a little story real fast about this film uh in the woods i i remember going to the theaters sneaking in when i was like maybe 13 at the time 1415 somewhere around there and me my friend snuck in and we told these two people right next to us these adults were like hey can you pretend to be our parents someone comes in and asks and they're like yeah sure we don't care so we're sitting next to them and no one asked but we're watching the movie and me my friend went into this thing oh it's chris hamsworth it's thor he's he's playing a cabin guy and he's probably gonna die you know what i mean like we thought it was gonna be like evil dead type stuff right yeah yeah no i got you it opens up when two old men are walking around and discussing business plans i'm like did we come to the right movie and oh my god i did not know where this movie was going and i remember i wasn't scared at all it's not a scary movie but it's a total film that flips the horror genre on its ass and yeah i think changed everything for that genre that day um it changed a lot for me it made me appreciate horror a lot more because it wasn't a scary movie um it has its moments but it's just the mythology in there um the the easter eggs the um when you find out what's actually going on it is insane and i remember me and i from walked out and we're like what the hell did we just watch and now as of today like i just love love cabin in the woods it's one of my favorite horror films of all time due to that reasoning and being so different and man it that's why it makes my top five i just such great memories with it to fill my rewatch every year i have to you know i gotta uh i'm gonna be honest here cabin in the woods is also in my top five nice and it is my number five as well yes cabin in the woods i which is yeah yeah no but anyway cabinet you do the cabin in the woods cabin in the woods for all the reasons you listed it's one of my favorite horror films because of how it picks apart the genre one of my favorite i mean it's been out for six years a minor spoiler i don't think is going to hurt but they're the scene where they bring up the dry erase board and everybody's making bets on what's going to come out and there's i love that of every single horror monster you would ever find in a horror film that was one of my favorite parts of it and there's so many other easter eggs in this film funny enough a couple weeks ago somebody in my audio production class he told me he thought cabin in the woods with the stupidest movie ever made but you know what i don't mind that though because some people just want a typical horror film and they might think it's stupid you know what i mean like i can't get that like this is a very different type of movie that not everyone's gonna love so if someone comes to me and they're like i didn't like it i think it's kind of dumb i totally understand you kind of think you're it's brilliant like me i totally understand like i get the like my dad thinks it's just an okay film and i get that but i just think of how different it is and it's one of those films that the first time you watch it i don't think it hits you how much you like it at least for me it wasn't like that like i liked it and then i kept thinking about it and thinking about it and to this day i'm still thinking about it that's an effective film so i i loved it man uh yeah i'm with you there as you can see we agree yeah so let's move on to my number four my number four is the descent the descent is one of the the scariest films i've ever seen in my life um it's thrilling it's claustrophobic and jam they got everywhere um Jesus Christ cody come up with a scent for a second yeah the descent the descent is a truly truly terrifying film i mean i the thing that makes it for me is the atmosphere the tone and most importantly the the sound effects yeah i agree a horror film that has really good ambiance really good tone atmosphere claustrophobic again it's one of those films that makes you feel like you're there yeah exactly and everybody gives a great performance in the fact that they did what they needed to they were all terrified when they needed to be yeah uh our friend riff actually just rewatched it for watched it for the first time and he's he's like what are these goblins um the whole thing about the film pretty much is these girls go cave diving or yeah cave exploring whatever and they get trapped in a cave and it is it real is it not are these things seriously in there that's trying to kill them or is it just them hallucinating what are these goblins that's my favorite thing about the film is that it makes you feel like is it real or is it not is it one of these girls that's going crazy or is it not it's so gory it's bloody and it's not in that grotesque way but it's in a scary way they don't overuse the blood and gore it's perfect i i think this is almost a masterpiece and the reason i love the descent so much and i'm so excited what this director is doing next he's doing the next hellboy and my god i'm so excited which i haven't told you cody i actually found the leaked trailer for what yeah i was someone uploaded it to instagram and it is awesome it's awesome i got taken down but it's awesome i'm really excited but i'm really happy with it so look out for that i can't wait see i didn't watch the full thing i just watched like the first like 40 minutes because i don't want i wanted i want to enjoy it on the screen but i liked it a lot man oh what is your number four okay so my number four is actually a tie between three and that is in here it's a damn list you know what zach yes it is it's a tie between three and those three are the conjuring hereditary and the witch really see i i stayed away from a lot of those films like all the hereditary and the witch i i don't i wouldn't watch them on halloween but really yeah but go ahead talk about them maybe i'm just a sick and twisted you know i just i feel like halloween's more fun like i like those films are like i have to be intrigued i have to be interested well the way i see it i think these films are very good for halloween time because not only are they exceptionally made films but they're also very terrifying in their own way and honestly i just love them even if i don't watch them specifically on halloween day these are films that i'm going to be watching every single year in october because this is the month of evil things and it is the month of horror so that's my number four but zach what is your number three my number three is a little film called the conjuring just like you're just talking about um i think the conjuring is a masterpiece i i i really do it's a modern day masterpiece um i think james won is the next steven spielberg i've been preaching this to him and damien chisel i think you're gonna be up there um but i think won's just great and everything he crafts in the conjuring it's on netflix so you can't say i can't i don't want to go buy it it's on netflix you don't have netflix get a free trial insane but i don't want now yeah but i really like the conjuring i i love the conjuring i i i fantastic performances pretty much pretty true story scariest hell and it's yeah it's so good it's so good but it's just amazing what's your number two man you mean number three oh number three yeah my number three you know i didn't know whether i was gonna put this one in here but my number three is swenie todd the demon barber of fleets tree i've never seen the tim Burton it is i want to i just it is a i i can never fight it on blu-ray so i just never find it's i mean it's a masterpiece like uh we all know that tim Burton goes for the dark gothic stuff with most of the stuff that he does with most of his productions and it works completely when it comes to swenie todd first of all swenie todd is was a Broadway musical and it's not like lay miserable or into the woods where it's 99 percent singing there is very much the story is i would say it's probably 60 40 like 40 musical numbers and 60 percent just pure dialogue and it's the story of a man it's a story it's the story of a man who uh gets wrongfully accused by a judge because the judge wants to take his wife away from him this man is a barber he comes back his original name was benjamin barker he comes back as swenie todd and he starts uh giving very special shapes to people until he can get to his his target and it's as a horror as a horror film and just a very entertaining film it's fantastic plus it's an as far as all the other performances johnny depp is given it's for me personally it might top his performances captain jack sparrow like the first one wasn't he nominated for swenie todd he was he was nominated for best for best actor okay so it it shows because when johnny depp is on screen it's the performance is so good that he completely disappears from the role and it's just left with swenie todd the character which is the best thing you can say about an actor's performance i love that i love it so yeah and overall swenie todd it's just it's dark it's very messed up but it it's an extremely fun movie to watch all right i'm gonna have to i'm gonna have to get it um moving on to my number two this one's for the kitties and the families uh monster house one of the best one of the best animated films i've ever watched it's scary it's fun it's entertaining it has a great story a very sorrow emotional story with the background history into that house the kids are fantastic like it it's just great it's one of the best animated films i've seen like ever it's just so smart and it's just about an evil house and it's animated again it's a film that i don't want to go into much detail about if you've never seen it but it is a film to definitely check out it yeah it is i can't say that much about monster house i've only seen it a couple of times but it is a very very fun movie for the entire family the interesting thing is as far as any i put the film kind of on the paranormal level to where it's the normal it's a film that's another one it's good great animation for sure but it's also a little bit more dark and more intelligent than your average kids film would be like the entire mythology around the house is something that i enjoy the most about the film so monster houses that's uh that's a great choice i agree i agree uh i am paranormal is another one that you mentioned that i really really like it hits a small little topic so i enjoy that but what's kody what's your two my number two is something that we were talking about before it's actually a double feature it's halloween from 1978 followed by halloween 2018 now have i only seen halloween 2018 once yes but spoiler for for later i loved it i thoroughly loved it and i feel as though moving forward i am going to buy halloween and it is going to become an annual tradition for me to watch the first halloween film followed by halloween 2018 just the way the story progresses the way the story continues both halloween films are an absolute blast to watch and seeing how john carpenter's legacy was carried on into the first into the into halloween 2018 and seeing that how john carpenter was involved as a producer and an executive producer and he did the score and he did the score yeah the and if you ask me i i as far as the the new theme for halloween 2018 versus the old the original halloween film it's hard for me to decide which one's better because the score in both films is fantastic but i agree that is my number two so my number two or well now my number one is the original halloween uh after rewatching it before going to this one i've seen it twice now before going to this one rewatching it this year i i don't know how i have not watched this film in years it's it's so good it holds up it's amazing and yeah it's cheesy but it's fun and it's thrilling and that's what 2018 also did which we'll get into next that's our next topic so the trolls could stop um would you say i'll save a lot of my words for it in a little bit would you say would you say after halloween 2018 comes on blu-ray would you switch that from just being the first halloween to doing a double feature of those two movies back to back um or just the original halloween i mean it helps to rewatch the first one before seeing the second one or this new one whatever the fuck you want to call it i think it does help to rewatch it to be honest because there's so many callbacks and they're not like in your face callbacks like some films do but nice callbacks and i thought it was nice for that aspect but uh kody what is your number one i know it's between one or two other films and i kind of want to guess i'm probably wrong though i have two guesses i'm going to guess the first one i'm wrong i'm going to guess another one and then i have no idea what it is if i get it wrong okay my number one guess is it is is it kody is it it yes what's your second guess zack the shining you know what the funny thing is what double feature oh my god you're right on both accounts you are right on both accounts go ahead talk okay actually you know what the funny it is talk about this stuff because i also kind of wanted to say the boba joke as well um but uh first of all in my personal opinion i love the shashank redemption i really really do i think it's one of the best movies ever made for me personally as far as steven king adaptations go i think the shining and it are not booked you know whatever you want to say the shining is it's a masterpiece in horror what states on a completely faithful adaptation to the book it is a great film and it's the best of the best faithful adaptations to a steven king novel that there is out there and you kind of get a different spectrum with with each because it you have a very fun not campy but you have a very fun energetic bloody ride that is just fun to watch from beginning to end and Bill Skarsgard gives a very Heath Ledger-esque performance when he performs his Pennywise Jack Nicholson and the entire crew behind the shining was there some was there a lot of cruelty that went on behind the scenes with Shelly Duvall and Jack Nicholson and what Kubrick wanted to pull out of them yes there was but the shining nevertheless the product that was produced is one of the best horror if not one of the best films ever made so that's my number one shining and it double feature back to back if you want to do a steven king thing on halloween you know i was about to say why are you doing a double feature i'm like that's kind of cheating but steven king so yep so you are right on that uh so that is our top five movies watching halloween guys please copy that vote tell us what you guys thoughts are what we're are some movies that we missed that you think we should have included let's talk about it down below but now the time comes we are going to be talking about halloween spoiler review full-on spoilers uh halloween took the box office you know what i mean 77.5 million dollars a week thought it was gonna make more um thought it was gonna be venom it didn't good all praise the lord of venom let knock knock let the devil in type stuff um but halloween spoiler review cody give me your initial thoughts on it and then i'll just take it away too i thought it's not no i'm kidding i i thoroughly loved halloween i honestly have i only seen did i only just catch up with halloween in the past six months yeah i just six months it's a great film john carpenter what he was able to do it's a masterwork and halloween 2018 my favorite part about it was the fact that it continues the legacy of lori strode and her eternal battle with michael mires and there once we get to the actual heavy spoiler-esque element of this discussion then i'll get into more specifics why i loved what they did what they did but overall there was really only one element of the film that didn't work for me but overall it was a very very enjoyable ride and i plan on going to see it again on october 31st that's exactly how i am man i i absolutely loved love loved loved this movie um it's one of my favorites of the year apps 100 percent i think one of my favorite things about the movie in general is how much fun it was is it the scariest film ever seen absolutely no it's not scary but it is fun it brought back the same aspects as the original halloween had it hit the nice callbacks the nostalgia and it was fun it was thrilling edge of your seat entertainment and i just loved what they did with it i loved what they did with it but let's go into spoilers now you have not seen halloween turn away go away uh or fast forward into the video let's talk about it let's talk about yeah uh what's your favorite scene let's what it was oh my what was your favorite i thought we were i thought we were going to dive into what we didn't like about the film first because there's not a lot let's start let's start okay my favorite scene well there's a couple there there definitely is a couple one of my favorite scenes is of course is michael miers getting his mask back that was when you put yeah that bathroom scene was i mean great i mean i thought i thought from the trailer that was probably when it was presented inside of the trailer i thought that was going to be my least favorite scene in the entire movie but no it's one of my favorites the other one i wouldn't necessarily say is a scene but any any scene or sequence involving lori strode or her family were my favorite parts of the movie and the teenage elements when it comes into horror movies are usually stuff that i don't really like or buy into because i never thought they were that good unless it's done in scream then it's genius but the girl that the girl that played uh lori strode's or jamey lee curse's granddaughter in the in the film she's she was one of my favorite oh the humor we're gonna have to get into but overall just any when michael miers gets his mask back or any scene involving the strode family was my favorite part of the film essentially i'm with you um my so it's hard one of my favorite moments um i'm probably the minority i love the i love the babysitting scene with that kid yes i will probably talk about i don't know i don't know if that was your issue because i know some people have issues but i i think that humor did take away from the scene but it was hilarious like i love that scene so much he's like oh not today running around like and then i just and the girl and the babysitter is sitting there and he's like send tom up there now like it was just it was just great that was just great humor and greatly written dialogue they got such a good kid in there um i will say i'm a little disappointed they showed that he was in the closet in the trailer um i thought it took away knowing that he's in there you know what i mean like i knew he was in there the second it came up so uh but i i love that scene the brutal death of the the boyfriend stabbed into the wall with the knife um but easily my favorite scene is the tracking shot the the one long take when he's just going through the house is killing these women for no reason just the hammer kill um the one with the knife through the window like those like it was just so intense and when they had that split section moves is he going to kill the baby or is he not uh it was intense and i i really like those are two my favorite moments and then i mean more my favorite ones is at the end the final confrontation between her and michael and when michael has her through the window and she grabs the shotgun and just turns around just blows his hand off i was like yeah yeah and i just love how you know they didn't have any weird cult or witches to this thing it was just straight up michael meyers is just a human being who's just crazy he's a he's a good man and it was nice to see the the parallels with lori showed as well in this film where we see that like she is instantly becoming in a sense also the worst version of herself too yeah she's you know what i mean like she's crazy in here too she's ostracized herself from her family yeah and i love what they did with her character i thought she she really was sarah connor in here and i dug it but i want to hear what the thing that you're not liking about this film so maybe we can discuss it a little more okay so first of all another shout out to one of my favorite moments in the film is when you get that last shot of michael meyers in the basement yeah when he's surrounded by fire that was one of my that's a beautiful shots it's one of my favorite shots of 2018 but the thing that doesn't work for me was was the guy that he's basically the new dr lumas from yeah um michael meyers you're the new lumas yeah like i understand what they were trying to do for him but throughout the entire i mean i from the moment that he was introduced like i thought him as a doctor working at the mental asylum working with michael meyers there i thought that was fine i thought if he was just one of the doctors who knew more about michael meyers than anybody else and they just left it there at the mental institution i thought that would have been fine but seeing him carry on in his whole wanting to learn more about michael meyers and learn why he's such a sadistic person and and the fact is he winds up being crushed under the boot of michael meyers in glorious gory fashion yeah the pump it literally looks like a pumpkin got smashed it did or you know it looked like ground up hand burner yeah um i i'm with you because that twist was uh i didn't hate it i liked it it was fine um i didn't i didn't like it when he put on the mask i thought that was just a little unnecessary i thought that was funny you know what i thought for a second so i had two theories for a second i thought for a second that when that happened i was like oh my god that's michael meyers he switched them i thought that was gonna be michael meyers and then it wasn't and then i was like and then i was really hoping they weren't gonna do this that michael meyers was dead and that he was gonna pull out the rest of the kills for the rest of the night i'm like i don't i'm glad they did but it was a little weird from the wear the mask oh yeah especially when he just like pulls it off and he's like whoo like stop stop the moment when i was like stop is when he um when he kills when he uh when he kills frank and he's like so this is what it feels like i was like no no yeah i didn't hate that i didn't hate it i didn't hate it i liked it it was fine but i love that he died super fast like i'll tell you one of the one of the best parts of this movie i know people have problem with this but it's all it's the callback to people making stupid decisions like i love that well i love the little callbacks in here like the ghost she yeah that was cool um my favorite callback in the whole film though my favorite one in my audience roared with applause is when she gets when lori shoates get pushed off the edge falls outside in the grass he turns around turns back and she's gone i loved that scene loved that moment um i i just thought it was so good um personally i have one con with the film one con how did the boyfriend not die you build this character up to die and he didn't die come on that's a good point especially since she turned out to be such a come on didn't he never came back after the dance like that was the point of his future i was like if he dies that's awesome i mean that's the thing about this movie is that as you're meeting her friends you're sitting there you're like you're gonna die you're gonna die you're definitely gonna die and you just keep going back and forth back and forth back and forth like but again that's the stereotypical slasher film you know who's gonna die and i think the film knows that but how did the boyfriend not die i don't know especially since his their best their mutual friend he bit the dust but obviously her boyfriend who's a much bigger jerk than this well they're all horrible people let's face it except for except for the granddaughter i will say that death though when when the guy gets put on the pike that i when he first when he was talking to michael mires and michael was just standing in the shadow i laughed so hard because the guy was so drunk well you're just saying that you're like yeah you're dead here and then oh the breathing the michael is breathing when he's watching people so can i say something about that once yeah after the credits you can hear him breathing that's what i was talking about yesterday on adam's live show yeah you can hear so we'll get to that because i did take some twitter questions and we do have some twitter questions to answer about this we'll talk about that in a second um i want to say one more thing about the pike scene when he stepped on his cape i said out loud and i shouldn't have said this in the theater i don't like when people talk but i said it to my friend i was like no capes etna moge she's right she's right man she's right oh i love all the way now the score brilliant all the nice little callbacks oh there were all that yeah the callbacks were amazing and the thing that i loved is that they they did little kai callbacks and took little pieces of the not so great halloween films i'm not exactly sure which one maybe it was halloween four or five where you find out that michael miers uh michael miers was as a kid he was a sadistic person who you know killed the other children around him when he was in an orphanage it's not that way here he didn't grow up in an orphanage but you you do find out that he killed his sister so i it's one of the it's one of the halloween films that's just really really bad but i love that they took that little element from it and put it into this film it's just danie mcbride who is an extremely funny individual the fact that him and joe uh david gordon green were able to craft something uh craft a script that really really good and very very well constructed it's just this movie overall it's top 10 of the year for sure yeah i agree with you so let's get to some twitter questions i took uh what were some of your favorite little easter eggs like again uh this is from adam dolly um my favorite personally was when she fell over and disappeared i really like that moment um one of my other ones was uh ryan put it he loved the costume some season of the witch the halloween three they were in there i really appreciated that yeah there's some nice things in there what about you anything that really stuck out as well i think i already said no uh it was from one of the it might have been a halloween h2o where they found out about michael mayer's childhood but the little tidbit they they put in here that michael mayer's had a really awful childhood and he was an awful child i like that but also you know getting back to basics the fact michael mayer putting his mask back on getting scenes of just downright tension the first half of the film the atmosphere and the way it was set up was almost it was pretty darn close to the original halloween and i really liked how it was constructed yeah no i agree um the next thing is ryan or sorry ashras the evil dead peshore peschal talks as following this movie would you like to see a new night friday 13th or nightmare on elm street i well i don't know if he's on the new state lebron james is apparently taking his production studio to make a new friday the 13th i don't know what will happen but uh i personally want freddy i don't care for jason right now i want to do another one and i remember especially since um 2010 yeah i don't talk about that i didn't watch it collider live though when i was watching them some guy called in had a really good idea for friday 13th i don't remember his name but i wanted to give that credit show and that guy he knows if he ever watched this he said he wants to take all the surviving girls of every single friday 13th and bring them back to have to kill jason that's a great idea yeah i loved it really great idea i loved it um ryanal ryanal lantern or ryanal tool ask did you guys like the direction that they took lori showed being drunk scared and outcast from her family i did i thought it made sense yeah did you guys hate the doctor character like i did was this character unnecessary i don't think it was unnecessary i think i don't think that yeah no i'm with you there uh like i said if they adjust if they just set him up as if they just set him up as a doctor who if you was i don't like a lot of exposition in movies but if you just gave a little bit of exposition of his knowledge of michael mires when the reporters were at the mental institution i thought if they just left his character there he would have fit perfectly i don't think they need i don't think they need to continue him on though yeah i agree uh he now this is the one question i'm gonna ask him i'm glad ryan asked is michael really dead no to be honest if he's not if he is dead i'll be happy if he's not i'll be a little pissed off i i think that takes away from the ending i think it takes away from the ending and what it sets up which another twitter question actually brought up but i i think it takes away a lot from the ending um that's a good point that's actually and i i think he should be dead i i don't there's no reason to bring it back i'm sorry but i don't want him back you had that final confrontation maybe she should have double tapped him in the head and she didn't watch zombie land but i that's just my thing um jamey perute asked us and this is where i'm asking do you see another halloween that that they tease the granddaughter to be the killer in the new movie like they did with jamey and halloween four and five that's where i was going to the last shot of her holding the knife my prediction is if they go on with this which they will make a sequel it's done if they don't because of money i i don't want them to but i think it's they're going to the daughter i feel like will be the new killer some people might not like that but i think it works like think about this lori strode killed the person who was tortured her for her life but now she's technically brought a new serial killer into this world with her granddaughter and that she's trained them in a sense their daughter yeah so think about that with the knife at the end just the way it was holding i might maybe i'm looking into that too much but i think jamey brought up a good point what about you cody what do you think no i agree honestly i think that's a great idea and the reason is because it would be a very it'd be an interesting and cool direction to take it and plus you know it might have been hinted in other halloween films but as far as this franchise goes i think this would this would also be something wholly original like what if that'd be an interesting conflict of character what it it's tough it's tough i don't know how they'll work it maybe i'm looking too much into it but that that's just like how i was thinking for it um and then the last question comes from tyler calvert he wants to ask two questions how's michael myer so strong as in being in his 60s and the second question being i lost it now um he wants to it was pretty much again michael is he alive or is he not like how do we if he does survive how did he survive and that's my thing is it's unrealistic if he did survive and i i mean he's he's just a man yeah he's just a man him being strong i mean a 60 year old man can be strong you know you know what i mean think about this like well that's my thing like he's just a big guy like he's just strong like that that's all it is that's all i i mean look at uh look at steven lang yeah so just but i mean i i see what you're saying now and if we look at there was no easter eggs or emphasis or any hints that that basement there was any way for anybody to get out of there if they were stuck down there so i'm gonna have to agree with you now like i see it as thinking about it a little bit more it would kind of be thinking about lori schroeder as a character since this is her final confrontation with michael it would kind of be disrespectful to her as a character considering everything that she's gone through and it wouldn't give her closure after what she's gone through yeah no i agree with you on that so that's halloween spoiler review um you got any final thoughts to mention any like last closing things we didn't talk about now the trolls can be happy yes they can and i'm curious your thoughts on halloween what was your favorite moment what was your favorite part of it let's talk about it down below in the comments uh that that's where me and kody are definitely going to be at but we are moving on to our last topic and it's a little one uh loop cage and iron fists are canceled oh jeez the first two marvel netflix shows some people are saying fain or snap them some people uh just don't care i'll go as far to say this um did i see this coming yes uh i they're received fine but the viewership is not there but i thought iron fist season two was really good and i thought loop cage season two was a little bit of a disappointment but again mic culture is so dang good as loot cage i wanted more um so this is where i put the question out to you heroes for hire the comic book series about both of them do you think we will get it or do you think these characters are just done and if we if we do get it i think it's gonna it's i don't if we do get it it's not going to be on netflix it's definitely not it'll be on whatever streaming service marvel is trying to come up with right now but that's just a small possibility honestly i don't necessarily considering the viewership and people's love for these characters didn't really show up in the numbers i think while there is a chance that they could come back in heroes for hire i also think there's an equal 50 chance that they just won't show up again and that's where i go to say is because i don't think jessica jones will last past season three and i do think daredevil will get a season four though i after watching three i i just i cannot see them not doing a season four not because of the story and stuff but because they could have ended it and it'd be fine honestly where they're at right now but i do think for the character and how good it is come on i mean there's something like how i i'm still stupid like i like to alter carbons i have no idea how that that got renewed i have no idea how that got renewed because it was a very expensive series more expensive than any of these and it did not get the best viewerships or even the best ratings and you know what i mean like so i'm still kind of there um i i want heroes for hire i think heroes for hire is a very good concept for the mcu netflix universe i think one of the biggest reasons for it being good is because you get these two characters again you can continue their smaller storylines but heroes for hire isn't just them to you can bring in moon night you can bring in maybe blade for an episode and trying to spin them off just like how you did with punisher that that's why i think it's a good idea i can understand that and it's wait has punisher been renewed at all or no yes punisher's been renewed it's already filmed okay okay well that makes me happy because punisher is a really really good show but i i mean when it comes to these two and i'll be sad because i agree with you jessica jones i think it's next i'll be sad when she goes though because jessica jones besides dare devil the first season of jessica jones was my favorite of any of the the stuff that marvel really for the first season my my list now goes dare devil season three dare devil season two punisher uh jessica jones dare devil season one defenders no iron fist season two defenders luke cage season one uh iron fist luke cage season two and jessica jones seasons yeah jessica jones season two was awful but it was so bad but i'm happy yeah it's just it's a shame but anyway so but yeah that is our show thank you guys so much for watching this we are back doing
