Paul Eaton, Galactic Comics and Collectibles. How are you today? [00:01:08] Speaker B: I'm great. How you doing, Justin? [00:01:10] Speaker A: I'm doing wonderful. This new spot, man, this is the. It doesn't look that much difference. I feel like some people might not recognize this that much, but there's no brick wall thing anymore. It's a little bit different. [00:01:20] Speaker B: You got a little more light in there. [00:01:21] Speaker A: You got that little more like a window here. I said to cover that up with something. That's a window over here I have to cover up. Yeah, it's. It's a kind of a mess on the bookshelf right now, but it's, it's. It's not a garage anymore. How about that? [00:01:33] Speaker B: No. Yeah, that's an improvement in and of itself. [00:01:37] Speaker A: Worth the buying a house, huh? No. [00:01:41] Speaker B: Yeah. You actually bought a podcast studio. Just happened to have a house with that. [00:01:44] Speaker A: Yeah. Well, it was kind of funny, was like when people were helping me move and stuff like that, and they're like, wow, this room's already set up. I'm like, it wasn't because I really, really, really, really wanted to get. It was. There's multiple facets to it. One was the books are easy to move because I can then put them on the shelf and then use the boxes again. So that was a nice little added bonus. The second thing was, is that I Didn't want to skip that many weeks of recording. And so, like, I wanted to get in here and get at least this corner set up so that I could actually start work. The Internet installed a couple of weeks ago, and so I could actually get in here and start recording. So I recorded last Monday, and as you know, I moved last Saturday. And so I was like, I needed to be done. And plus, I want to be able to focus on my family's part of the house, not this part. Once we actually moved in. [00:02:23] Speaker B: An easy part of setting up a room like yours is that no one else in your family cares. No, what it looks like, what it is. So then you can like, oh, we need to move the couch. We needed the tv. I don't like it over here as much. Or, you know, the kids rooms are different. You can go set that up. And no one cares what it looks like and what you're doing. [00:02:39] Speaker A: And so to me, I'm like, if I came in here, started setting this up for a podcast thing, my wife would be like, where are you? Can you please help with the rest of the house? And so I came here and did things that in spots and moments and things like that, you know, took a day off and came in here and started setting this up. So, yeah, so we're in the new studio. This is where we'll be for a while, hopefully, Paul, because I am stuck for 30 years in this mortgage. [00:02:58] Speaker B: So as one of the people help you move. [00:03:02] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:03:02] Speaker B: I don't really want to have to move you again. [00:03:03] Speaker A: No, no, exactly. I told. We're gonna cut that box or that mattress in half if we have to get it out of here, we're gonna just slice it right in half. But no, but, yeah, we're here to discuss our movie reviewer discussion or whatever. It's the 40th anniversary, Paul, of Back to the Future 40 years. [00:03:20] Speaker B: So I realized while watching it that he doesn't go as far into the future as we are. We're in the past. Like, you know, I was like, he travels less time than we are sitting in. [00:03:30] Speaker A: Currently sitting. Yeah. Yes. [00:03:32] Speaker B: Yeah, that kind of hurt a little bit. [00:03:34] Speaker A: Yes. Yeah, it's. It's a. Yeah, it's a crazy time. And then in the second movie where they're like, oh, there's always that talk about, like, it was like, what, a couple years ago now with the date he went into? And so you're like, oh, flying cars, automatic exchange, drying clothing, you know, rehydrating meals, all that stuff. [00:03:52] Speaker B: Like, there's some stuff the shoes you just step into. [00:03:55] Speaker A: Yes. There's some stuff that's actually more technology advanced than they predict. [00:04:00] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:04:00] Speaker A: And there's definitely things that. [00:04:02] Speaker B: And the virtual calls there. And actually it's funny how a lot of that does seem accurate from the second movie there where like when he gets fired and it's like coming off on the fax machines. It's going everywhere. And I'm like, that actually seems a lot like today. [00:04:13] Speaker A: Well, I think it's funny too that in the future, in the second movie, they had a fax machines. Like they thought that was going to stay on for. [00:04:18] Speaker B: Still going to stay. Yeah. I just had one of my. One of my distributors I was working with had a whole thing and they're like, oh, can you just fax this that information? Like, who the hell still faxes stuff? I'm like, doctor's office machine. Right? [00:04:31] Speaker A: That's it. Doctors, they only do this fax machine only for doctor's offices. I don't understand. I had to sending thinking for an accident. This is like five, six years ago. More than that now. Like nine years ago, I was in a car accident. I need to fax something and I needed to go visit my dad's friend's church to find a fax exchange to send something to fax to the insurance company because they're like, oh, we need to fax. I'm like, can I send it in an email? They're like, no. I'm like, that's how, that's how the world works right now. [00:04:56] Speaker B: I mean, when I worked in automotives, the automotive field is always like a little bit backwards. [00:05:01] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:05:01] Speaker B: And that was a lot of faxing, like when we had to do stuff for our, like, not payroll, but like bills and collections from our customers and stuff. A lot of that was faxing. And it just seems like so ridiculous that you're sitting there and you never know. Like half of them, you don't really know if it goes through or not. You assume it. Does anyone actually get it on the other end? Like, is there fax machine down so you can start looking like three months later? And you're like, I know I did this. And I had to keep a big file of stuff I'd fax so I could go back through and be like, I proved I did it. I had to like stamp it that I sent it that day. What a nuisance. [00:05:33] Speaker A: That's also funny about it. I mean, maybe they just gave up on it because the fact that people don't do it that often anymore. But I feel like the technology in the. In the imagery hasn't improved that much. Like the fact that we get a set of fax, it still looks like crap when it comes through. Or the machine catches it in a weird way. Like, they never once they said, no one's gonna use fax machines anymore. They're just like, we're gonna stop, you know, making it better. Right? [00:05:51] Speaker B: Yeah. We're not gonna keep improving this. Yeah. The fax is like halfway through and then it stops and you only have half page of it. Always something. Yeah. [00:05:58] Speaker A: Well, I also love it. I worked in an office that had a fax machine. This is now 15 years ago. And we'd get fax spams. [00:06:08] Speaker B: Oh, God. Yeah. [00:06:09] Speaker A: And I always thought to myself, like, okay, a fax, a spam email is like, whatever. It doesn't really. You delete it. It doesn't. [00:06:14] Speaker B: That should be the person sitting up. Spam faxes. [00:06:16] Speaker A: Well, that and also, like, it costs paper and toner. [00:06:20] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:06:21] Speaker A: Like you sending me a fax. And every day, if like three or four faxes came through, and then over the span of a year, that's an entire ream of paper. [00:06:27] Speaker B: Word. Is that worth. [00:06:28] Speaker A: You know, I mean, like, yeah, that to me, I'm like, that's. That's stealing from us in a sense. Like, that's like, that's, you know, whatever. Old. Two old men here griping about fast. [00:06:38] Speaker B: In the wrong movie. The movie that we're supposed. [00:06:41] Speaker A: Yeah. So 40 years, Paul. So obviously it's in between you and I. Right. You know, I'm 39. You're over 40, I'm gonna say. And 1985. It was July 3rd, 1985. So it's a July 4th weekend, you know, release of this movie. It was written and directed by Robert Zemeckis. It was also co written by Bob Gale, who still own the rights to the movie. [00:07:05] Speaker B: That is impressive. That's smart right there. [00:07:08] Speaker A: They ruined the rights to all. [00:07:09] Speaker B: Here we are, 40th anniversary. You know, they're going to be marketing all of the, like, Back to the future hats and shirts and crazy Nikes and all the stuff. And he's still making all the coins. [00:07:19] Speaker A: They're doing great. They didn't worry about it anymore. And that's the reason why we haven't got a fourth one or a reboot or any of that stuff is because they basically said, these are the movies. We're not touching it. And basically it has to be their, like, estates after they pass, would have to say, yes, we give you the Rights. We'll say the rights to try to do this movie over again or whatever. So they. That's the reason I'm right on the. [00:07:38] Speaker B: Fence of like, I would love to see like a reboot or something. I also don't want to see a reboot. Like, I can't decide which way I'd rather go with it. The. It's so original and fun for its time and place that doing it now I almost feel like just wouldn't hit the same way. [00:07:54] Speaker A: You'd have to make it cheesy in the way that this was. Cheesy but good. You know, you'd have to. You had to be. You couldn't be like, this is what realistically it's going to look like in the future. [00:08:03] Speaker B: You're not going to have like the. Yeah, everything would be CGI'd now and. [00:08:06] Speaker A: You'D have to go back. Actually, that's what you'd have to do. You couldn't do more future stuff. You'd have to still go. You have to go further in the past because. Because Doc Brown, what's his name, Christopher Lloyd, has always wanted to go back to like Rome. But the problem with that, that. That thing is the fact that it's always been go back to the future in the spot they're in. So they'd have to travel to Rome and then go back to the future. It's one of those. [00:08:31] Speaker B: You're not gonna go back the past and then try to get to Rome from there. [00:08:33] Speaker A: Yes. So you have to somehow be in Rome and then go back from there. But, you know, it is what it is. But yeah, I think that. That it has. The reason why it's so amazing is because it's in that realm of like, the future from future from here is any less astounding to us, in my opinion, less surprising to us. You know, we know eventually that there'll be mostly electric cars. We know in the future that there'll be this, that and the other thing. Because the way that technology has grown and even in our lives at times is so fascinating. [00:09:04] Speaker B: The jump of technology that we've had. [00:09:06] Speaker A: There's not going to be this jump. [00:09:09] Speaker B: This movie that came out when we were kids and that half of our technology is more advanced than what they thought it would be. [00:09:16] Speaker A: I've always wanted. I've always wanted to see like, you know, Marty McFly. If, you know, if they did do it, I would wanted it before. Before Michael J. Fox passed. Yeah, it's because I wanted to at least have a cameo in it of some sort or. [00:09:30] Speaker B: Right. [00:09:30] Speaker A: You know, Doc Brown, Emmett. Christopher Lloyd's still kicking around. Like, it would be awesome to have him in it, but have it be like Christopher Lloyd's kids or Marty's kids, you know, Doc Brown's kids. Because obviously they're in. In the third movie and have it be like their kids are now finding the pieces and. And putting it together. You know, like it crashed and they found, like they find the pieces of the old DeLorean, they somehow put it back together and. And make a reboot. But not a reboot. Like start the whole franchise over again. [00:09:57] Speaker B: The Ghostbusters did. [00:09:58] Speaker A: Yeah. Something where it's like continuing the story, but you. And years later. That's the only way I would want to do it. I also have a sick and twisted way I want to do it. That Marty McFly, that Michael J. Fox, his illness is actually caused by traveling through time. [00:10:11] Speaker B: That is dark. Yeah. Because I mean, there's got to be side effects. [00:10:16] Speaker A: So don't do it. Don't do it. You'll end up like me. That's what I mean. It makes sense. It would actually be a pretty good story. It would also be like a little. A little close to home. And I don't know how well it would be received. Maybe that's the horror version of the. Of the Back to the Future. Like, you know, like when the. When the rights get, you know, public domain is right. [00:10:36] Speaker B: Right. You start doing spin off things. [00:10:40] Speaker A: No, it was made for $19 million, Paul, in. In 1985. So. So it's. That was not high, but it was like. It was a good amount of money. [00:10:48] Speaker B: It was a good chunk back then, for sure. Yeah. [00:10:50] Speaker A: Yeah. And made $389 million in the. And it's obviously going to make more because those numbers, they always continue the ad. The re. Like the re releases. Like it's coming out in July. A lot of places are going to show it because of the. Because of the 40th anniversary. So, like, it's gonna grow on that. Which is kind of. I always hate that because I'm like, how about the initial run? Like, how much did it make you back then? I wanted to look up 19 million, obviously. [00:11:14] Speaker B: And. Well, enough success that they made three of them. [00:11:16] Speaker A: Yeah. Yes. And I honestly think it's one of the few that I liked. All three. [00:11:24] Speaker B: Yeah. I think the third one is a little less than the first. [00:11:28] Speaker A: Yes. [00:11:29] Speaker B: But the first two are definitely very, very enjoyable. And I still like watching the third. [00:11:33] Speaker A: One, but not nearly as other people have seen the third movie of a lot of other trilogies. The third movie. A lot of other trilogies just are not very good. I mean people will speak about tmnt, you know, third movie. People didn't like that one as much and so on and so forth. So like I do think that out of the scale, the actual trilogy as a whole is probably one of the best trilogies. [00:11:50] Speaker B: Yes. They're all enjoyable. They're all fun to watch. [00:11:52] Speaker A: Yes, exactly. [00:11:55] Speaker B: I. I don't watch like the two and then be done. [00:11:57] Speaker A: Yeah, you have me watch the third one. That's the thing is you get to it and it's a complete. The first and the second movie are very similar in the sense that they go back in time rushing thing in. [00:12:07] Speaker B: The third one is that it is very different. As far as you know, they're in the West. But it gets. [00:12:13] Speaker A: Because you're going 30 or 40 years in the future or the past from, you know, 1985 is how crazy it is 30 years ago. So Doc Brown knows about this stuff and then you go 30 years in the future and you see the. This thing and then they're like, well, just reate the whole thing and be like, let's get some ancestors in it and go to the third one. The third movie. And so like. Because I guess they definitely couldn't have made a third one that was in the same vein as the first and second one because too much it would have been like. We would have been like. Unless they just stayed in 1985 the whole time. [00:12:41] Speaker B: Right. [00:12:42] Speaker A: They never actually time with stuff that they brought from the past and from the future and. And just made, you know, or made an alternate timeline again. So I think. I think the old school doing it back in the old west is actually worth it in that. [00:12:55] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's kind of fresh for all of the. Because yeah. I don't know if you could. I don't know if I'd want to watch a third one that was taking place in the exact same scenario as. [00:13:05] Speaker A: The first two movies because he would have just been like, okay, this is repetitive. Okay, I get it. This is another one. [00:13:10] Speaker B: You guys messed something up and you shouldn't have been playing with it. Yeah. [00:13:13] Speaker A: And you know nowadays that. [00:13:14] Speaker B: No, they mess with it. Go even further back. [00:13:16] Speaker A: They would have made a fourth one if it was. If it's in 2025. This is the third one came out in 2025. There would be a fourth one in 2027 guaranteed. Because of how. How well this. The series went. [00:13:29] Speaker B: Turn them Out. [00:13:29] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:13:31] Speaker B: The sixth or seventh one that was like a direct. [00:13:33] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:13:34] Speaker B: Streaming service because it really wasn't that good and no one cared. [00:13:36] Speaker A: And because the third one came out in 1990 and was made for 40 million and it was. It made 245 million, so it still made 200 million successful. They would easily have done a second one or a third one. Part two made $40 million. Made $332 million. So pretty good series, man. [00:13:59] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. [00:14:03] Speaker A: Yeah, that's pretty good. And then they had the TV show. The animated TV show. [00:14:07] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, that's right. That's right. [00:14:09] Speaker A: So that's technically. Is. That is the fourth one technically. But it's not in a sense connected because it came out in 91 and it was. I was created by Robert Zeckis and. And Bob Gale, and it was. I wanna say it was like 20 episodes. 25 episodes, 26 episodes, which was cute. [00:14:28] Speaker B: I mean, that's pretty solid run for anime series back then too. [00:14:31] Speaker A: Yeah. And I know voices were all different, except for Clara from Back to the Future. Three voices, her character in that. And I know Christopher Lloyd did the live action segments and then someone else did the voiceover segments of the actual animated. But, like, it was like there was. Like it wasn't connected in that way. It wasn't like nowadays and they do animated shows like in the Marvel Cinematic Universe where they're like. [00:14:57] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. The same actors for the whole thing. [00:14:59] Speaker A: But yeah, so. So it's a highly rated movie too. I mean, not only just as a good movie. And I think it's 93, 95 on Rotten Tomatoes. It's got the 8.5 on IMDb. So it's like one of the top 100 movies. Yeah, yeah, it's. [00:15:13] Speaker B: It's. [00:15:15] Speaker A: Yeah. And it's gonna catch. [00:15:17] Speaker B: There's always somebody that give a bad review for these things. It's just like it's not a realistic one star. [00:15:24] Speaker A: Time travel goes this way. And is. This is how time travel works. Time travel is impossible, people right now. So, like, just think of it that way. [00:15:32] Speaker B: Calm down, folks. Just calm down. Enjoy the ride. [00:15:35] Speaker A: And at the time, Michael J. Fox was huge in. Was it Family Matters? [00:15:40] Speaker B: Family Ties? [00:15:41] Speaker A: Yeah, Family Ties. And so he was very popular in that stuff. So Christopher Lloyd obviously, you know, has been famous since then. I don't know how much. Yeah, yeah. Leah Thompson, obviously. This is the second. This is the second movie we've reviewed with Leah Thompson in it. Did you realize that, you know what would be interesting? All right. She's not trying to sleep with the animals in this movie. [00:16:03] Speaker B: Nope. No. Shy. Sleep with her son instead. How many. [00:16:08] Speaker A: It's those old movies where, like, siblings kiss or mom and son kiss. Like Star wars and this. [00:16:15] Speaker B: It'd be interesting. Like, is she our only actor, actress that we've had of duplicates? [00:16:22] Speaker A: Like, I would think. Yeah. Because, I mean, we did start to be something else. So there's always. [00:16:26] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:16:29] Speaker A: Leah Johnson. And. And yeah. And she. I love the scene in the movie where he's like, you're so ha. And he wants to see hi. It's like, yeah, it does, Michael, you know. Yeah. Don't. Marty, don't say it, because that's gross. But, yes, your mommy is hot. Like, I'll tell you that right now. [00:16:48] Speaker B: I love the. After watching this with my girls and Liz and I watching it now, we keep talking about how funny it is and how funny, like, her mom is. Her mom's always very. Was always, when we were younger, like, the same idea of, like, don't chase boys. Yeah. I didn't do these things and this and that. And then there's the mom. Like, I didn't chase boys. I didn't sit with boys. And it goes back to the past and she's, like, chasing every guy and. [00:17:12] Speaker A: Well. Well, just think about it. This is the funny thing. It's like, this is the epitome, right? It's the epitome of parenting. You're telling your kids not to do the things that you did. You do fib a little bit and say, oh, I wouldn't have done that when I was younger. Like, it's not until they're older and they're graduating high school or whatever, going into college, where you're like, yeah, I smoked cigarettes when I was 10. Or something along those lines. You're not going to say that when your kid's 10. You're not going to tell them that. They're like, well, I'm going to try it. So it's like, so funny how. Yes. It's like the epitome. When you're looking at it as a parent, you're like, that is exactly what my parents were. [00:17:41] Speaker B: They. [00:17:42] Speaker A: They lied through their teeth about how they were as a kid. [00:17:46] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:17:47] Speaker A: And it's true. And then talk about that and then the age, the gap, and not just the going back in time. And so you see the 1950s, but you also see the 1985 time where things are not like they are in 2025, like Marty McFly at the very beginning. And I wrote a little note down about him. Him like, being like, I'll call you later. And she's like, oh, I'm gonna be at my grandmother's. And she runs up and gives him her phone number. I'm like, wait, no, writes it down. Isn't that just like, I'm gonna call you later on. I'll text you later on your phone. Doesn't matter where you are. Nope, I gotta use my phone number. It also surprised me that they have been dating that long and he doesn't have her phone number. [00:18:20] Speaker B: Well, yeah, well, it was the grandmother's number. Right. [00:18:22] Speaker A: Well, still, she's never been to her grandmother's house, you know, like, it sounds like she goes though, right? [00:18:28] Speaker B: I thought it's funny, like, looking for these parents that are, I don't know, I guess they didn't pay a whole lot of attention because Marty's all over the place all the time. 1:00am, he's out of the parking lot at the mall. Like, how are they not keeping track of where this kid is, what he's doing? [00:18:43] Speaker A: And an old man is asking, dude, so. [00:18:47] Speaker B: So he's like, best friend is this old dude. He's always over at his house messing around somewhat. [00:18:53] Speaker A: Well, it's somewhat, right, Mr. Strickland, like, don't hang out with Emmett Brown. He's a. He's a crazy old man. Like, it's true. Like, seen this but like, you know. [00:19:00] Speaker B: Right. [00:19:01] Speaker A: Yes. Go out one o' clock in the morning. No question. No, no repercussion. I mean, his parents are kind of space cases too, let's be honest. [00:19:07] Speaker B: Yeah. Well, it looks like, you know, like mom drinks a lot and dad's just a flake or whatever. [00:19:12] Speaker A: It's also the epitome of 1985 and before of the people not paying attention. Like the way that they acted to each other. Like the family was together because they needed to be together in 1985. So his mom is drinking a lot and the dad is not even paying attention, just watching TV and she's talking to him and he's just like, I don't give a about you. And he's just another. But they have to say together because that's how it is. It's their nucleus. You got to do it for the kids. [00:19:34] Speaker B: Yeah. You don't have choice. [00:19:35] Speaker A: Yeah. And then back, you know, back in 19, the way that people acted in 1950. 50 something too. It's pretty crazy there too. But yeah, I thought the time just watching this is back going back in the past for me. [00:19:48] Speaker B: Right. [00:19:48] Speaker A: Watching this, being like this is, you know. Exactly. And that's why it would be kind of funny to see a remake based in 2026. 2027, that they go back to 1987. Because there are some things that nowadays would be funny to see, like the same. [00:20:02] Speaker B: That would. [00:20:02] Speaker A: The same thing that this movie does, but just shift it until it's Modern Day in 1980. [00:20:06] Speaker B: Yeah. That actually be a lot of fun if they left today to travel back. [00:20:09] Speaker A: Yes. [00:20:10] Speaker B: To try to catch Marty and stop him from messing with the timeline or something. [00:20:13] Speaker A: You could do even more serious. [00:20:14] Speaker B: Go back to the 80s. [00:20:15] Speaker A: You could be like more serious like the world's going to end or something like that. Not entire. Not that you're. You're. Because this whole movie is about how. [00:20:22] Speaker B: Their spheres affecting themselves. Yeah. [00:20:25] Speaker A: Yes. They don't talk about the greater picture. So it would be funny if they did one. It's a greater picture. [00:20:29] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. The second one you get a little bit. Yeah. So. Oh, my God. The bad guy. [00:20:36] Speaker A: Biff. [00:20:36] Speaker B: Biff, yeah. Because Biff. [00:20:38] Speaker A: But. But still in there. It's still in their area. It's not like, you know, you know, some sort of like crazy post apocalyptic world where there's like, you know, I mean, like, it's in that area. There's that kind of feeling. But like, doesn't talk about like going to New York City and have it be like zombies, but you know what I mean? [00:20:54] Speaker B: Like leveled. [00:20:55] Speaker A: Yeah, exactly. Nuclear war happened or something like that that you didn't actually get into. But yeah, but yeah, that's just. It made me laugh. Is like the way that they acted, the way they write the phone numbers down and all that stuff. It's like they're in 1985. It was talking about how crazy it was 30 years ago. And to me watching it 40 years later being like how crazy it was in 1985, let alone 1985, and how crazy it is. [00:21:17] Speaker B: I think this was like pg, who is like pg. I'm watching with the girls and like he. Marty's swearing. Every time he turned around, I was like, wow, this is. It's crazy that nowadays there's no way that's getting a pg. [00:21:28] Speaker A: Well, it was because there was like two ratings. It was like R and then parental guidance. It was just like, hey, by the way, your kid might not like to watch this or you might not want to watch this, but it's not like. And then there's R, which is like, you cannot watch this. But it was like pg. It was like Footloose is the same way it's all swearing Footloose and it's like, wait a second. There's no way that this would have been like this in. In. [00:21:45] Speaker B: Yeah. Nowadays. No way. [00:21:46] Speaker A: They're very, you know, they're allowed to say like two swears. Like one swear on tv. And then. [00:21:50] Speaker B: Yeah, you got to use it. Use it properly. It's the only getting one. Yeah. [00:21:54] Speaker A: So we've talked about Marty McFly. We've talked Michael J. Fox. We obviously talk about Leah Thompson and how she's been in multiple movies we've reviewed and stuff like that. She's awesome. I love, I love Thompson. Christopher Lloyd. Crispin glover is George McFly. It's, it's, it's Marty's dad on this thing. If you look at. And then Biff Tannen, all these characters are extremely well cast, in my opinion. Like, there's not a single person where I was like, like, Biff being the way Biff was, was phenomenal. [00:22:19] Speaker B: George McFly, I just love the younger version of Biff is awful. The older version, when he's first there and is like, still. Well, when you first meet him and he's bossing around Marty and acting like an ass, or not Marty, but George. [00:22:31] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:22:31] Speaker B: And then he goes back and pass. You see that? It all started way back then. Talk about, like, feeling sympathetic for George, that it's just like, this is nerd and he can't get off his ass to do anything. Right. Well, we're. [00:22:45] Speaker A: We're nerds. Right. And so we have a lot easier time than George McFly did in the 1950s. [00:22:50] Speaker B: Oh, God. Yeah. [00:22:51] Speaker A: Let's be honest. Because George McFly wanted to read space novels. EC Comics. Did you see that when he crashed? Yeah. They had to think of the EC comics. I love how like, EC Comics is like back big right now and seeing that sci fi comic holding on to is. Yeah. He wants to read like, you know, you know, Jules Verne or whatever. He wants to read these, like, nerdy novels and reading and write a sci. [00:23:11] Speaker B: Fi book, but he doesn't dare have anybody read it. [00:23:13] Speaker A: And so you feel for him in that sense because nowadays, like, if your buddy was like, I'm writing a sci fi book. You're like, dope. I want to read it. When can I read it? Now, back then, it's like you didn't want anybody to get near him because you weren't cool. You didn't have a poodle dress. You didn't have, you know, like that kind of thing. [00:23:26] Speaker B: You weren't doing all the. The in stuff because sci fi leather. [00:23:30] Speaker A: Jackets and like going, yeah, yeah. [00:23:33] Speaker B: He was a free person playing sports. Like, you're either a sports guy or you're not. And. [00:23:39] Speaker A: I hope he wasn't wearing poodle skirts. That would have been weird, but that. [00:23:41] Speaker B: Would have been a whole different 1955. [00:23:45] Speaker A: Maybe he did. I don't know. We didn't see that part. But yeah, so it's, it's, it's. You feel for him. But also, like Leah Thompson, be able to play both roles, the mom and the daughter. They said it took her like three and a half, four hours to put the makeup on to be the mom that she was, because she was like 23 at the time when she made this movie. So it took her so long to put that on there. Obviously, Michael J. Fox, and obviously we'll touch on that right now really quickly, is it wasn't the original. He was the original pick to play Marty McFly, but because of Family Ties and his schedule and all that stuff, they weren't able to do that. And so they went with Eric Stoltz and Eric Stoltz film like, like they said it ended up being 40 minutes of screen time as Mario McFly when they realized the chemistry just wasn't working. And they amicably said, this isn't going to work. And he left. He was trying to make it more serious and less comedy and. And they said, okay, it's not going to work. And they went back to Family Ties and was like, we really want Michael J. Fox. So his filming schedule was like, like 10 o' clock at night to like 10 o' clock in the morning on the set for Back to the Future. And then he'd go. They go home and sleep for an hour. And then he'd head over to the set for Family Ties and do like 11 o' clock to like 9 o' clock at Family Ties. And then, you know, he would do this. He was basically working 48 hours or 24 hours a day for like brutal months while filming this movie. It obviously got better with the future movies, but best decision that he's ever made, best decision that the people Robert Zavekis Gaylor made is that there's nobody else in this world that I could picture playing Marty. [00:25:12] Speaker B: Definitely Marty McFly. And I feel like this is like a comedy adventure. And, you know, Michael J. Fox has that perfect, like. And he's lovable, like, and he does such a great job of. He sticks up for himself even though he's the little guy. Yep. And you have those scenes where he like, is gonna fight Biff. And he starts looking up at Biff and he's like, well, he's got that. [00:25:34] Speaker A: He's got that tender, I want, I care for the world kind of personality, but he's also got that cool. He's hip. He's a young, hip kid. He's like, I don't know, just. He just fits everything. [00:25:42] Speaker B: Spenders. [00:25:43] Speaker A: Yeah. And him. His relationship with his. [00:25:46] Speaker B: My youngest watching. That was her thing. She's like, why is he sleeping in his clothes? Why does he have suspenders on? I'm like, I don't know, kid. It was the 80s. Just roll with it. It's fine. [00:25:54] Speaker A: He was cool. It was cool back then. And. And his. His acting chops against Christopher Lloyd was amazing. And there's so much fun together, and I just could never picture it ever happened. And that's part of the reason why I think a lot of people don't want to remake or reboot. It's just the whole Han Solo thing where it's like, people don't want to see Han Solo played by anybody else but Harrison Ford. [00:26:16] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:26:16] Speaker A: So no one wants to. They'd actually probably be okay with someone else playing Doc Brown. It's the Michael J. Fox of it all. They don't want anybody else playing Michael J. Fox than Michael J. Fox. Marty McFly, that. Other than Michael J. Fox. And I think that became his thing. It's weird how it became his thing. And actually, I mean, he was Teen Wolf too. [00:26:32] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, obviously. [00:26:33] Speaker A: Family Ties and stuff like that. [00:26:34] Speaker B: What was the show he went on that he played like a. Like a politician or he worked in a. Do you remember that? It was on abc and it was like. That was very long running. [00:26:42] Speaker A: Yeah, I forget now. [00:26:44] Speaker B: I can't remember the show, though. [00:26:45] Speaker A: Look it up. But he. He's actually gonna be on the next season of Shrinking. [00:26:53] Speaker B: Oh, that's cool. [00:26:55] Speaker A: And so that's Harrison Ford's on it, which is, you know, funny to. [00:26:57] Speaker B: Funny to say combine them. [00:26:59] Speaker A: Yeah. So he was on family ties from 82 to 89, and then he was on Spin City. [00:27:04] Speaker B: Spin City? Yeah. [00:27:06] Speaker A: For. From 96 to 2002. [00:27:07] Speaker B: He played like a. I can't remember, like an assistant to the. [00:27:11] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. [00:27:12] Speaker B: New York or something. Something. Yeah. [00:27:14] Speaker A: He's on Boston Legal for a number of years. He. He did a spot guest appearances on Scrubs for a number of years. But, yeah, so he was on a couple of things. And so now he's gonna be on. On Shrinking, which is one of my favorite shows right now. It has what's his face from How I met your mother. I forget his name. And then Harrison Ford's on it and. [00:27:36] Speaker B: The Doogie Hauser, which still isn't his name. [00:27:39] Speaker A: No, no, no, it's not him. No, it's not him. It's the other guy. It's the guy that. Yeah, the other guy. [00:27:44] Speaker B: That's terrible. We can't remember any of these. [00:27:46] Speaker A: Whatever. It's not about this movie. I didn't research it because it's not about this. About the show. [00:27:52] Speaker B: Talk about going back to the 80s. [00:27:53] Speaker A: Yeah, exactly. But it's so. Michael J. Fox is like, it's an epitome. There's no one else that could have played this role, in my opinion. And it's one of those things when you go look back at certain characters, you're like, there's no one else that could have played X, Y and Z. And I'm like, well, no one else could have played Elf other than Will Ferrell in my opinion. Like, that's just one of those people. Like there's only one person that ever said would ever come close and that's what's his name from Bing Bang Theory. Sheldon Coopers. The guy who. [00:28:17] Speaker B: Oh God, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. [00:28:18] Speaker A: And he did play him in an anime like version remake musical thing that they did. And after hearing him speak, I'm like, oh, I could have seen him as Elf. But yeah, no one else at the time in the 80s, I can even picture being Marty McFly. Same to Christopher Lloyd. I think that Emmett Brown was extremely well played by him and so very well done. [00:28:37] Speaker B: He's so much like, he's so just like wacky. And I love when he meets him in the past there and he's like, everything's failing. You see, he has his mansion. It doesn't work out because he's spending all this money creating crap that doesn't work and he's just out of it. I, I love Liz pointed out when he, he starts watching himself in the future, he's like, oh, look at me, look how old I am. I didn't lose my hair. And he looks the exact same change at all. [00:29:04] Speaker A: It's. [00:29:05] Speaker B: Yeah, guys, it never ages. He probably looked insane like that. Like high school. You have all these young kids and it's just a tall guy with the crazy air. [00:29:11] Speaker A: Well, I love the, the fact that he goes back and he does this. He knocks on the door, right, Goes, hey, Doc, I need you. And it takes him forever to actually believe Marty. Whereas, like, I feel like the easy Way out for a lot of movies nowadays is like you say, hey, I'm from the future. No, you're not. I'm from the future. Oh, okay. Like it's just like. It's like you immediately start to believe him. And he took to the point where he actually started saying about the whole flux capacitor and that's knowing. [00:29:37] Speaker B: Knowing that how he got the bump on his head and that made that. [00:29:41] Speaker A: I feel like that made it so much more believable that, that even this guy who was inventing these crazy things and it's some self doubt, you know, it's the self doubt, definitely. [00:29:49] Speaker B: I think he sort of didn't think he was ever going to create something that actually worked. [00:29:52] Speaker A: And so like having him not believe fully and then finally believe. Which was pretty funny, I guess. Ronald Reagan said it was. He loved being in the movie in that sense where he says, oh, Ronald Reagan, the actor. [00:30:03] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:30:04] Speaker A: Appreciated. That was actually kind of funny. They thought that was kind of funny. [00:30:07] Speaker B: That was funny too. Yeah, he has. He like laughs at him. [00:30:10] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:30:10] Speaker B: He starts to say like all these other actors. Oh, I guess they're the treasurer. [00:30:14] Speaker A: And I want to know. I mean, there is some app ad libbing obviously in this movie. I guess the, uh, Biff, when he says make like a tree and. And get out of here. Yeah, that's actually ad lib. That wasn't actually in the script. He actually did that on his own. [00:30:26] Speaker B: That's one of my favorite lines. I love that. [00:30:28] Speaker A: But like the. One of my favorite lines in this entire movie is when he's in there, they're looking at the model and he's like, sorry, you know, forgive this crudity of this model is not. I didn't give time to paint it or make it to scale. [00:30:43] Speaker B: Right. [00:30:44] Speaker A: Yeah, of course. It is like perfect. The whole thing is like perfect. [00:30:48] Speaker B: The buildings are there. Everything's right. Marty, scale is right. Okay. [00:30:57] Speaker A: Mari's like, oh, yeah. That was amazing. That was amazing. Oh, I wanted. This is the thing I wanted to write. I want to figure it out before I forget. So the movie, they go, he gets up one o' clock in the morning, which is crazy, right? Obviously. You know, he obviously falls asleep, which is awesome. He didn't like stay up. I would have been like, I don't know. Kid that Young in the 80s. I mean, he probably would have. I mean, I guess he was tired, but I was like, wouldn't he just been up anyway, like kids nowadays go to bed two o' clock in the morning. There was no Video games to play. [00:31:23] Speaker B: There's nothing else to do. Yeah, right. It wasn't cool to pick up comic books. There was nothing else to do then. By then, TV would have been, like, over. Like, I don't know, like the. The. [00:31:34] Speaker A: Yes. The movie. The static screen. [00:31:37] Speaker B: And then it just. Yeah. See you tomorrow. Yeah, man, that's old school stuff. [00:31:41] Speaker A: Do you remember the first time you watched this movie, or. No, I. I don't. I. I can't. I can't. [00:31:45] Speaker B: I really. I don't. It. I definitely watched it back then at some point, but I was. What. This was 85, so I was only, like, three when it came out. I probably watched it somewhere when I was, like, seven, eight years old and. Yeah, I don't. I really don't remember. It's just one of the things that sort of, like, always been part of my childhood life, I guess. Right. [00:32:04] Speaker A: Yeah. And it's not a bad thing. I think it's one of those things that, like, it's such a fun movie and. Because I basically probably watched all three of them in a row, because at that time, it probably was like, I didn't go to theaters. Yeah. [00:32:14] Speaker B: Probably one of those things that, like, the third one was coming out or something, and somebody was like, we gotta watch them all. [00:32:19] Speaker A: And then. And obviously back then, it was a little harder. You had. You owned it on VHS tape, or someone had to buy it. [00:32:24] Speaker B: You had to go rent it. Yeah. [00:32:27] Speaker A: So thinking back now, do you think that people in the theaters in 1985, July 3rd, they're going opening night, think that Doc Brown actually gets shot by the Libyans in his dead. [00:32:39] Speaker B: I mean, I. I think that's what I thought. Watching it. Yeah. [00:32:43] Speaker A: Because obviously now watching it, we're like. [00:32:44] Speaker B: Oh, we know Marty really was trying to save his life, because you knew that night, like, that was gonna. And then. [00:32:51] Speaker A: So the secondary question is, I. I agree. I think I would have been like, oh, this is it. Doc Brown's gone. [00:32:56] Speaker B: That sidebar of that extra nervousness through the whole movie that he's got to. [00:33:00] Speaker A: Try to save Doc, which I'm glad they also didn't focus on, like, so strong. Like, they weren't like. [00:33:06] Speaker B: Right. [00:33:06] Speaker A: He had to get this timeline. [00:33:07] Speaker B: His whole thing wasn't that. His whole thing was still. He had to get back to his own timeline and save himself. Because the day he started screwing up. [00:33:13] Speaker A: Stuff, then they kind of, like, red herring you again with him not making it in time. [00:33:20] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:33:20] Speaker A: And shot. Then he doesn't get a chance to actually say something, and he Gets shot again. Do you think at that point, people were like, oh, yeah, now I thought he was alive. Now he's actually dead again for sure. [00:33:31] Speaker B: That when Marty got back there, he was gonna prevent it because. [00:33:34] Speaker A: Because all my mind was like, the number of times that Doc was like, do not say things about your future. It could affect the timeline. [00:33:41] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:33:42] Speaker A: And that's when he has that piece of paper that he actually reads and says, oh, you know, I read it. And now he's wearing the. The bulletproof vest thing. [00:33:50] Speaker B: The bulletproof vest just somehow stops in AK47. We won't get. [00:33:52] Speaker A: Yeah, it did sound good. But. Yes. I mean, somehow, somehow, the Libyans found him at the mall. Like, that's also a thing at 1:00am Somehow, somehow he knows Libyans. Like, that's also something. [00:34:05] Speaker B: They also have a rocket launcher. [00:34:07] Speaker A: Yeah. It's all great. [00:34:08] Speaker B: It's all fine. But so far, we don't question you. [00:34:14] Speaker A: Time travel. [00:34:16] Speaker B: The most unbelievable thing in this is the fact that a Dorian could actually get to 88 miles an hour. [00:34:21] Speaker A: Yes. [00:34:21] Speaker B: And also not just fall apart in the process. [00:34:24] Speaker A: They also wrote a letter to Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gill, the guy who created delorean, saying, thank you so much for making the delorean cool, because so many people wanted deloreans after this movie, made so much money on it because of it. And they picked the DeLorean because of the. The spaciness of it. Like, the idea is boxing has this, like, cool look to it. Plus, it had the doors that went up. So when it crashed in the past. [00:34:49] Speaker B: Anybody who built a DeLorean, rebuilds a door now is definitely building because of this movie. [00:34:54] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. They actually sold body kits for it that you could buy, like, snap on and stuff like that to make it look like you're the DeLorean. And so they solely picked the DeLorean based on the look. Because when it crashed in the barn in the past, they wanted to make it look like a spaceship. If it was a charger, they would have been like, whatever. It looks like a car. But like, this looks like a spaceship with the doors opening and all that stuff. So they needed that kind of thing. And no one would have given two shits about a DeLorean nowadays if it wasn't for this movie. I'll tell you that right now. It was not around long enough and so on and so forth. [00:35:24] Speaker B: Oh, AMC went out of business. Yeah. Not very long after that was. Their whole thing was green. This was their sports car. Yeah. That. It was also semi affordable. Or something. It was supposed to be semi affordable. Yeah. [00:35:38] Speaker A: It weighed so much. It weighed. [00:35:40] Speaker B: Oh my God, so much. [00:35:41] Speaker A: Yeah, but. But yeah, so, so that was really kind. [00:35:46] Speaker B: I think it only had a four cylinder motor. It was not made to go fast. [00:35:50] Speaker A: I love that. That's the speed too. That's still a crazy famous line. Right when this hit, maybe it's 88 miles an hour. You're gonna see some serious also. [00:36:00] Speaker B: But that one, they rules it out. And he was like, you made a time machine out of a door? And he's like, if you're gonna do it, do it in style. [00:36:08] Speaker A: Those are lines. And then they've. Honestly, my ultimate favorite line from the entire movie. I know I already said the other one was pretty, pretty favorite, but this is my ultimate favorite line. He's in the car in 1955 and he's sitting there and he's getting ready and he's like checking over things. He's like, time circuit on. He goes, flux capacitor flexing. [00:36:25] Speaker B: And I was like, he doesn't know. [00:36:28] Speaker A: What the hell it does. Flex capacitor flexing. I'm like, that is a crazy, amazing line. Like I, I always like. The flex passenger is flexing. Yes, that's right. Right. The. The heater's heating, the flux plaster is flexing. But that was great. Yeah. So they did that and went back in time or back to the future and that they actually wanted to change the name. [00:36:47] Speaker B: Really. [00:36:47] Speaker A: You know that they didn't want to have it called something with the word future in it because someone and someone in that Universal or whatever said that no one wants to go see a movie with the word future in it. And I don't know why, but. So they wanted to call it like Space Boy from Pluto or something like that because that's the whole, the whole like with George McFly, I was like, this movie would never made it. No, no, we had never made it. [00:37:13] Speaker B: No, they nailed it. Back to the future. And they say the line right off the thing there. The, the. Oh, he's. He said it. He said the movie line. Yeah. What is. We're gonna go back to the future. [00:37:22] Speaker A: It also is one of the most confusing lines because like, how do you go back to the future? [00:37:26] Speaker B: Yeah, Well, I almost think that's what makes sense now. [00:37:29] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:37:29] Speaker B: Would have made you originally say, I've got to see what the hell this movie is. [00:37:32] Speaker A: Yes, yes. [00:37:33] Speaker B: I'm going back to the future. Like, it sets you right up. And this movie is like, it definitely holds up for enjoyment and adventure. And just, I don't know, I mean. [00:37:45] Speaker A: It'S got all these comedy adventure. [00:37:47] Speaker B: Enjoyable. Yeah. [00:37:49] Speaker A: He's got heart in it. [00:37:49] Speaker B: Really like you really like the connection between Doc and Marty? [00:37:53] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:37:53] Speaker B: That you know, at the end of the day, Doc is Marty's best friend. Yeah. Like his weird is this like teenage boy and you know, his dad is. [00:38:02] Speaker A: Not really like a huge father figure to him. Like his dad seems like he's just his father like looking out for him, you know, Seems like it's one of the cool guys like that the neighbor that you'd like to hang out with even though he's not in it. I would have loved to actually see a prequel to this to see how they got together. [00:38:18] Speaker B: Right. How did. Yeah. How did he first start hanging around Doc in the first. I felt like it might have been something like after school job, you know, like he had a flyer out make some money. He needs a lab assistant. You know. And that was how Marty came across Doc in the first place is like, I need to make some money. Take Jennifer out and start saving. I also appreciate all the teenage things that is going through this kid's head for sure. Like I gotta buy this truck. Like it's showing that. [00:38:44] Speaker A: Which is a dope ass truck, dude. [00:38:45] Speaker B: Oh, that's sick. [00:38:46] Speaker A: That Toyota pickup truck is so awesome. But. But yeah, it just seems so kind of funny because I'm so glad. It's kind of like the Walking Dead where they never explain how the zombie apocalypse happens. Which is. Makes you perfectly fine with that. I kind of like the idea that they just never touched on the fact that how this relationship between Doc and Marty got together. Like it's one of those things. It's like this is they're together to make the movies. That doesn't matter if you ask if you figure out why they are now friends, you're focused on that and not the focus on the point of the movie. Which is, you know, keeping the sacred timeline, basically. [00:39:17] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:39:18] Speaker A: Steal a line from some TVA from Marvel. Marvel Cinematic Universe. But yeah, having this timeline that needs to be put together, making sure their lives are not screwed up and. And speaking of mcu, do you think this is the first movie with a post credit scene in a sense like this? That's not post credits. It's at the end of the movie. But it's like one of those things that it actually is like a scene that they open the next movie up with. [00:39:40] Speaker B: Yeah, boy. Probably also like how many. I mean, I guess back then in the 80s it started becoming more Common, you know, and in the 70s with. With like Jaws having all these and stuff like that. But like earlier than that, how many movies even had an idea that there was going to be more sequels? [00:39:58] Speaker A: And like did they would have had. [00:39:59] Speaker B: It back then that you had one movie and that was your. You're one and done, you know. [00:40:05] Speaker A: Oh, so here's the deal. So I just like looked it up really quickly. A sequel was not initially planned. And a teaser ending with Doc, Marty and Jennifer flying off in the DeLorean suggested their adventures would continue off screen. So it wasn't even created. I always knew it was just created that after they finished the film, like, we're gonna make a second one. Let's put this teaser, this thing right in, like the. [00:40:23] Speaker B: Right into writing that second one. Or maybe even had like a whole two movies written and said, well, we got to cut this in half. [00:40:30] Speaker A: Yeah, that's crazy. So. So, yeah, so they said that Universal came to them afterwards saying after the significant financial and critical success of Back to the Future, however, Zemeckis and Gail were reluctant to participate, believing sequels would often retread on that basic elements of the original film. [00:40:48] Speaker B: Well, thank God they kept going. [00:40:49] Speaker A: Oh my God. Because number two is phenomenal to me. It's like one of those things is, you know, like the Avengers, Infinity War and Vengeance, Avengers Endgame. Originally, back in the day they were like. When they first announced it was. It was like Infinity War Part one and Part two was like, basically like, they're gonna make two movies that were the same thing. And they ended up changing the titles, obviously. But they're connected in a way that's like. It's basically one movie which is hugely long. And this is that way too, I think. I feel like it's 1 and 2 are like the same movie. It's just they couldn't make a three hour movie. They had to make it to a one and a half hour movies to make more sense. [00:41:17] Speaker B: You gotta. You almost really do have to watch them together. [00:41:20] Speaker A: Yes. [00:41:21] Speaker B: We were gonna move. We were gonna move right into the second one. And actually my youngest, Katie, was really excited to watch the next movie and just haven't had time. Everything. [00:41:29] Speaker A: It's so good. And it's one of those ones I've thrown on for Nova. I thrown. I've thrown on to try to get him at 4 years old into Back to the Future. I've thrown on the animated show. [00:41:38] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:41:39] Speaker A: Seeing if he'd be excited about that. He's actually way more into watching real life stuff anyway. So like, if you watch the Animated show, he's actually going to pick out the, like I put on animated Transformers and this is going to piss you off. But he wants to watch the real one. And that's because. I think it's just because he sees it himself in it. It's us. It's us. It's us as. [00:41:56] Speaker B: Oh, but what the hell. [00:41:57] Speaker A: It's. It's the Miles Morales, you know, being, you know, Spanish speaking and seeing the Spanish speaking. [00:42:04] Speaker B: Right. [00:42:06] Speaker A: Seeing themselves on screen. It's the same thing. He sees himself as part of the Transformers. He can't see himself in an animated version of it. And so I think that's part of it. So, like this. It's like I put it on before, but I think he's like, ah, so one of these days we'll actually sit down and watch it when he actually can, like, pay attention. Yeah, exactly. But I mean, it's, it's. There aren't anything outside of like the plot holes that would happen in any movie that's, that's future time travel related that make no sense. Like in the grossness of the fact. I mean, you had to do it of this mom and the son kissing. Like, there's no way not to. Because in the same sense, yeah, she would be attracted to him and then they. The best part where they kiss and then like, that's like kissing my brother. [00:42:46] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:42:48] Speaker A: Does it make any sense to you? Yes, it does. You don't understand why, but it does. It does make sense. But yeah, I mean, you'd see that. I think that that makes any sense. Like his mom is an attractive person. So like he would be attracted, in a sense, and she would be attracted to him. So you had to kind of do it. But it was also kind of weird, let's be honest. [00:43:06] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. For sure. [00:43:10] Speaker A: Star Wars. Because Luke and Leia don't know their siblings in Star wars, right? [00:43:13] Speaker B: Yeah, it's worse. It's worse. Marty knows that's his mom. [00:43:16] Speaker A: He doesn't stop it immediately. He doesn't immediately move back. He like kind of lets it happen. Then he's like, wait a second, this is weird. But at least the only kiss. At least the only kiss, there's that. [00:43:27] Speaker B: Oh, God. [00:43:27] Speaker A: Maybe that's the tr. That's the. That's the fourth one. We don't know. They have a kid illuminate time travel baby. That's Doc Brown. [00:43:38] Speaker B: That's why they're buddies. [00:43:39] Speaker A: Well, I mean, Doc screws it all up because he has kids with what's her face in the. In the. In the third one, right? [00:43:45] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, he's back in the, what, 1800s? [00:43:49] Speaker A: Yeah. It's crazy. [00:43:51] Speaker B: Talk about screwing up your timeline, doc. [00:43:53] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, it's a. [00:43:55] Speaker B: It's not supposed to be. [00:43:56] Speaker A: Yeah, it's insane. It's. It's a. It's a. But, yeah, it's one of those things that, like, other than plot holes, any time travel movie, I felt like the story. [00:44:06] Speaker B: My uncle and I always talked about this when I was a kid and I was. I used to write a lot of stories and stuff, and I was writing a time travel story, and my uncle's like, never mess with time travel. Like, there's always problems. You're always creating issues. Like, he's like, just stay away from time travel. [00:44:21] Speaker A: Yeah, it's. It's. Yeah, that makes sense. It doesn't. There's no. [00:44:25] Speaker B: But I think this movie does a pretty good job of. Of wrapping up enough of it that you don't have too many issues with it, you know? [00:44:33] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:44:36] Speaker B: Things. Yeah. [00:44:37] Speaker A: You have to suspend belief in a movie like this. You can't. Like, it's supposed to be based in real life, but, like, in a sense, like, it's supposed to be basically like, oh, this is what would happen if this happened. But in the same sense, it can't happen. You know, it's the same thing. Honestly. I'll tell you right now, it's like I'm watching a Walking Dead or zombie show. [00:44:50] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:44:51] Speaker A: You're trying to make it as what would happen if this happened, but there's no possible way for it to happen. So, like, it can't do that. So, like, there's obviously plot holes in that sense, because you can't make it real. It's not possible. So it's not like it's. And at that point, small plot holes are just looked over because the fact that, like, they're not going to try to fix it. [00:45:09] Speaker B: You're having fun anyways, watching. [00:45:11] Speaker A: Yeah, it's entertainment. It's what it is. So I thought the casting was, like, spot on. The acting was wonderful. Any acting that was bad acting was almost a purposely bad acting. It was like, it was a. It was part of the whole story. It was a whole joke. The things that they focused on in the past and in the. In the present day were, like, not too much, but not too little. Like, they didn't, like, go too much onto the fact that, like, oh, we're in the past. The things that made sense, you know. [00:45:37] Speaker B: When he started saying he meets the mayor, when he's young and says, oh, you're gonna be there. He doesn't understand, like, different things. Opening a bottle of Pepsi. [00:45:45] Speaker A: Yep. [00:45:46] Speaker B: Yeah. No idea how to open it. All those different things. Yeah, yeah. [00:45:51] Speaker A: Just give me something without sugar in it. And he just gives him coffee. Yeah, but those are the kind of funny jokes you're. Like, how that is kind of funny. I understand that when he says you're, you know, this is an oldie but a goodie. Well, I guess where I come from, it's only your kids are gonna love it kind of thing. Like, those kind of jokes were great. And there was just enough of them to realize, okay, we're in the past. This is funny. [00:46:12] Speaker B: You're seeing the difference. But it's not. It's not just over and over again. [00:46:15] Speaker A: Yes, exactly. [00:46:16] Speaker B: So all the writing in this, I feel like, was very well done and timed. The jokes are always well placed, like, keep your adventure going. But also the light heartedness. [00:46:26] Speaker A: Yes, yes, yes. The science is just enough to figure it out. With the whole clock tower and the gigawatt. Was it gigawatts? [00:46:35] Speaker B: Yeah, gigawatts. Yeah. [00:46:36] Speaker A: Well, see, what's funny about it is that gigawatt is actually technically not an actual term of. [00:46:40] Speaker B: Right. No, And I thought it was gigawatt. I thought it was gigawatt. [00:46:43] Speaker A: Yeah, it is. But they said that it actually was a shift in time and years and years and years ago where people used to call it gigawatt, gigawatts. And at some point when I started becoming jiffy, it was jigawa. So they actually started doing that. It was like a transitional time. So it is. [00:46:57] Speaker B: So in 1955, you probably would have. [00:46:59] Speaker A: Well, that. That also. And they said it sounded cooler. Like it, you know, it sounded like a. More of a, you know, scientific term. It was kind of like crazy. Like this whole 1.21. [00:47:12] Speaker B: And then you mentioned Nova and Transformers. You ever read the Transformer Back to the Future crossover? No, no, I. I have the trade now. I was gonna try to read it before this podcast and I. I just haven't had time to do anything. But that's one that was fun. And they made the door into a Transformer. [00:47:30] Speaker A: That's. Yeah, there you go. Yeah, it makes sense. Well, man, that's the next one. That's the next crossover. You know, they always like to do that stuff. Property crossovers, beta, direct it. [00:47:41] Speaker B: Oh, God. Yeah. You ought to screw that up fine. [00:47:44] Speaker A: The way where all the explosions come from. [00:47:47] Speaker B: Yeah. I don't remember any of this. In Back to the Future, then pulling half the freaking city up. But he goes back into the future and the. The whole town is just destroyed and all rubble and stuff. Oh, even the great Android wars of 1955. [00:48:04] Speaker A: Yeah. So there's. There's some crossovers that make sense. That does make sense. It does. Like in a comic book form, it does make sense. [00:48:12] Speaker B: Like, I've talked about Megan Fox playing his mom in that foreign. [00:48:16] Speaker A: It's Biff's wife, actually. [00:48:19] Speaker B: That'd be pretty fitting. Yeah. [00:48:20] Speaker A: It makes sense, right? [00:48:21] Speaker B: It does. That makes sense. [00:48:24] Speaker A: Marty McFly is sh. He helped ruin the Indiana Jones series. So why don't we help. Have him help him in the. [00:48:33] Speaker B: That wasn't good. Yeah. [00:48:36] Speaker A: Again, it. Selfishly, as a Back to the Future Die Hard fan, I want another one because I want to see more. [00:48:42] Speaker B: I would love to see more property because I enjoy it. [00:48:44] Speaker A: But I know for a fact, unless. Unless it's 50, 100 years from now that it's gonna piss people off. It's gonna. It's gonna taint a series, depending on how it's done. [00:48:55] Speaker B: How much would you and I enjoy watching it? Like, would we actually go into it and just have. It's so hard. I haven't watched Beetlejuice. Beetlejuice yet. [00:49:02] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:49:03] Speaker B: But I loved Beetlejuice. I love the idea of Beetlejuice more than sometimes in actually the movie itself, but the parts of it are just so much fun. And I haven't watched the sequel. And I. I was sort of cringing going into Ghostbusters because I love Ghostbusters. And I already had RoboCop. The new RoboCop movie was awful. Like, in my opinion, terrible. So you go into a little bit of this expectation that there's no way to achieve the expectation we have because we've had it for 30 plus years, 40 almost now. [00:49:32] Speaker A: So this, to me, would have to be done. Like we mentioned about Ghostbusters, that's the only way we work. Unless it's 30 or 40 years from now, when all the people that were in the movie were dead and they want to just do a. It's. It's in the same world and someone finds the parts and there's still no connection at all to. Or they do a reboot in the future. That's like, again, 30 years from now, we're like, hey, it's the 70th anniversary of back to the Future. Let's do it. I think if they did it now, like in the next five years or so, and Doc Brown shows up and you know, hopefully, you know, we have Marty McFly as the character that's still going. But if it's Marty McFly Jr. And even if, even if Michael J. Fox has passed by then and they have pictures of him or, or throwback. [00:50:12] Speaker B: Videos, some sort of homage to him. Yeah, some sort of. [00:50:15] Speaker A: I think they could do it. [00:50:16] Speaker B: Yeah. Somebody coming across the time machine and freaking with it. [00:50:19] Speaker A: And I would want one more. That's what I would want. I don't think it's one of those things that you could do five or six more. I think that so many places have done these reboots or rehashing of things and then they've gone into the sequel of that and then the sequel of that and then sequel of that and it's like X Files, one of my favorite shows of all time. And they did the whole, like come back for a season and they ended up doing a sequel to that season. And I'm like, you should have just come after one 10 episode season and left it. Give us fans something else to like grab onto and love this. And then if you continue, that series is probably built off of the idea that there would only be one. And then the success of it. They're like, let's add on to that. Then you're just muddling the whole thing and then it starts. [00:50:52] Speaker B: And it starts feeling like a money grab. [00:50:54] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:50:56] Speaker B: Special. [00:50:58] Speaker A: Indiana Jones is a perfect example. You had the first three movies that were nearly perfect and then you go on, you make a fourth movie like, oh, cool, we get a new Indiana Jones here and it's Crystal Skull. And that's what we get from it. And so I haven't, I haven't watched. [00:51:11] Speaker B: Any since that either. I dislike that movie so much that I never bothered watching the next one. [00:51:18] Speaker A: It's not horrible, but it's also not amazing. Someone's at my front door. [00:51:23] Speaker B: Oh boy. [00:51:24] Speaker A: No, I can't see it. [00:51:25] Speaker B: I had the same thing before we started the front door here. [00:51:28] Speaker A: Yeah. So. So, like I said to me, so for years and years and years I had this movie rated a four and a half stars. And I don't know why, because I honestly think it's a five star movie in my opinion. And that's. So I'm going to go five stars. Even though I've had like, I literally have had it on my letterbox and all that stuff to four and a half stars. I watched it again this time and said, I really cannot find a spot in this movie that I don't like or I don't think they did. Well, you know, again, the biggest thing to me, and I could be this is my own personal opinion, right. Is that the plot holes that possibly come up with any time travel movie are there. [00:52:03] Speaker B: Right. [00:52:03] Speaker A: But otherwise the story itself, the reason why they have to go back in the past to get stuck in the past, it all makes sense. And they had the, the fuel is the rain reason and you know, and the lightning bolt and using all these together, it doesn't seem like an easy undertaking to write this kind of a story because it's future. [00:52:22] Speaker B: And then it's great because when he comes back to the future. [00:52:25] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:52:25] Speaker B: Stuff in his life was fixed that he didn't anticipate. His parents are happy. Like his dad's successful. Biff being the a hole is not winning and winning over his dad. He's outside polishing the cars, like. [00:52:39] Speaker A: And then they go to add that stinger at the end of it to talk about Movie two, which they didn't screw up in Movie two by saying, well, we did that at the end of the movie. We're not going to use that anymore. Like when we really release the movie on VHS again, we're going to cut that out because we're going a different direction. They built off of it and they use that to open up the next movie. And I think that it's the line, what am I, an ass? [00:53:00] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:53:01] Speaker A: Something wrong with your kids? What are they? [00:53:03] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, that's what it was. What, what's, you know, you bring Jennifer effects. What's the matter? When you grow up to be assholes. No, it's not you, Marty, it's your kids. [00:53:11] Speaker A: And that, that whole thing is just, it's great. And it's such me. I'm like, I have to sit down and go in my life, what are my five star movies? You know, this is a five star movie to me. It's just, just, just too much of it. I can understand going four and a half stars being like, it's not perfect. But in the same sense I'm like, what am I comparing this to in the style of movie that it is, right? I'm not saying like to me, one of my favorite movies is seven completely different movie. [00:53:34] Speaker B: Like, I mean, I don't know that this holds up as well as Time Cop does. [00:53:38] Speaker A: Oh my God. But like in the same sense, like. Yes. Is it a, you know, Academy award winning best picture movie? No, but it's extremely entertaining. [00:53:48] Speaker B: I don't want to watch anyways. [00:53:49] Speaker A: It's one of the most rewatchable movies I've ever seen in my life. It's extremely entertainment. It's for everybody. Like there's, there's something in this for everybody. It's funny, it's got every. So it's like to me, I'm like, it's a five star movie. I'm done. I'm not defending myself. I don't know why. I'm defending myself because there's a bunch of people out there that think this is a five star. [00:54:04] Speaker B: Here's my eight year old in 2025, loving this movie. [00:54:07] Speaker A: I'm defending myself on a movie that people do think it's good. Like. [00:54:10] Speaker B: Right. [00:54:12] Speaker A: Why do people think that you should. [00:54:14] Speaker B: Some of my movies I do have to defend, but that's not. [00:54:18] Speaker A: Yeah. So I like this movie a lot. [00:54:20] Speaker B: Yeah, it's funny. I, geez, I don't know. I'm between four and a half and five stars. [00:54:25] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:54:26] Speaker B: I don't even know why I would give it four and a half. Just. [00:54:28] Speaker A: That's what I'm saying. I don't like. [00:54:29] Speaker B: It's hard to get that five star maybe. But yeah, in the grand scheme of things, you're right. There really isn't anything in this to say differently. It, maybe I'd only go four and a half stars because it didn't, well, it was part of my childhood. It didn't affect, affect me as much. This wasn't like something as a kid that I like. I didn't run around dressing like Marty McFly. [00:54:50] Speaker A: Yep, yep. [00:54:51] Speaker B: A friend, a friend of mine I think always waited for a hoverboard and he tried to skateboard and all that stuff because of this movie, you know, And I just wasn't that kid. So maybe that's the only reason I'd go four and a half stars. But ultimately the movie's great. It's super fun, it's aged well. It's, it's, it's a, I don't know, the entire property holds up over time, like. And I very much enjoyed watching with my family today. [00:55:17] Speaker A: So that's my point is it's that, that it's a family movie. It's a, it's a movie that's great. And I think it's the best movie we've watched that we've reviewed by any stretch of the imagination, honestly. [00:55:27] Speaker B: Yeah, probably. I'm trying to remember what else we've done that were like, that were good. Ninja Turtles. [00:55:33] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:55:33] Speaker B: I mean I do, I do love Ninja Turtles and ninja shows. I'd probably give the 5 more so because it was such a big part of my childhood versus Back to the future. [00:55:41] Speaker A: Yep. [00:55:42] Speaker B: In the grand scheme of things, I think back future probably holds up better than Ninja Turtles does. [00:55:46] Speaker A: And I think the story itself is more complex. [00:55:50] Speaker B: I mean, it's like grounded and not grounded. Which one's more. More believable? You can go back to the future that there are mutant turtles fighting crime. [00:55:56] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:55:59] Speaker B: The time travel almost seems more believable than the mutant turtles fighting crime. [00:56:03] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, sure. [00:56:05] Speaker B: New turtles with like this like, sense of decency and good that they have to. Well, that seems a little bit much. [00:56:13] Speaker A: Yeah. But in 30, 40 years, this movie is held up. And I think that people like, this is one of those ones that like, even movies like Fight Club to me as a great movie, amazing movie they had, like when it hit its 20th, 20th anniversary and like 30th anniversary or whatever it was recently, 25th anniversary, it like, it was like a blip on the radar. Like, people were like, oh, my God, I can't believe it's been out for 25 years. This is like one of those things that's like 40 years. And people are like, this movie's been good for 40 years. It's still good. [00:56:38] Speaker B: Yeah. Well, I mean, we have the 50th year of JAWS. [00:56:42] Speaker A: That's. And that we debated. We went back and forth on that. We talked about that, and I discussed that. I even sent you saying, hey, make sure you watch Jaws. Yeah, that. [00:56:49] Speaker B: Which also. Oh, wow. [00:56:50] Speaker A: It's the 50th anniversary of Jaws. And it's one of those things. It's a standing outstanding movie as well. I just felt like this would be more fun to discuss and talk about it. I think a lot of people are going to focus on Jaws right now in this summer. [00:57:04] Speaker B: Might sort of get overlooked a little. [00:57:06] Speaker A: Well, our friend John, friend of the podcast, John Campo Piano, actually is screening this summer his documentary about. It's called the Farmer and the Shark. It's about a farmer that was actually helping with the making of Jaws down in Martha's Vineyard. And so that's coming out too. So there's like a. There's going to be. There's no. [00:57:24] Speaker B: I think I would probably give Jaws a five star. And I can tell you exactly when I saw Jaws and all this. You know what I mean? [00:57:32] Speaker A: Like, so it was worth it. But I was like, I don't want to do a 40th anniversary as much. [00:57:36] Speaker B: A movie I watch in the summer as, you know, like, Home Alone is a movie I watch At Christmas time, like every summer we have to watch Jaws. [00:57:44] Speaker A: So. So I didn't want to do two good movies in a row. So the next movie we're gonna review is Fantastic Four from 2005. So. And yeah, I can start, I can. [00:57:56] Speaker B: Just start making the notes now without re watching it. Of the problems with this thing. Well, I'll tell you, we've rewatch it so I can, so I can be surprised by either things I can write off as not as bad. Maybe. Maybe. Or even more things. I'm like, God, this sucks. [00:58:11] Speaker A: Well, we've discussed this before. We have book club. Right. Book club discusses things and there's like, there's like a 30 minute conversation on a good book. [00:58:18] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:58:18] Speaker A: And then a three hour conversation on a shitty book. And so. [00:58:23] Speaker B: Almost those mid books where like there's stuff that you really like or I really like and then we're surprised at how many people don't like it. [00:58:28] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:58:29] Speaker B: And then you have this big session because you know, we're defending something we really enjoy while someone else is like, I absolutely hated this book. Well, everyone with Long Halloween is my favorite like yeah. Arc of any of all time. And there were people, a fair amount of people that didn't like Batman Long Halloween in our book club, which they're all wrong. You include. [00:58:49] Speaker A: You also, you also like RoboCop. So there's that. So no, but I was saying, like I was actually kind of afraid that here we are, we're wrapping up here and I was like, I don't know how much we're gonna be able to actually discuss this movie. He's like, oh, that's great. Sign off. Whereas if we were, you know, the crappier movies, like when we talk about Fantastic Four, we're gonna be able to on that movie for an entire. [00:59:07] Speaker B: Oh my God. Yeah, we have to, we have to cut it off because we're like, we got. No one's gonna listen to this. This long. [00:59:12] Speaker A: Yeah. And so there's that. So I think that's one of those things. And so we're going to continue going back to these crappy old movies and, and we're going to watch every once in a while we're gonna watch a good movie because that's just fun to do too. And it's nice to break it up a little. Yeah. [00:59:24] Speaker B: Crapping on something all the time. [00:59:26] Speaker A: And I, I. And what I want to do now is, I think what I'm gonna do now is we'll, we'll discuss it. And here's it's on this podcast. We'll talk about it, you know, in the future episodes coming up. So let's talk like maybe we're gonna do August 4th ish. Right around that time, sometime in August, we're gonna do another. This double recording. Let's do the season of revival. So it's only at eight episodes and so we have able to, you know, catch up on those and do all those. Because revival, it's right here. [00:59:54] Speaker B: I didn't do my homework for. [00:59:56] Speaker A: Which is fine. Which is fine. [00:59:58] Speaker B: We were supposed to do for everyone. We were supposed to do a revival first pilot episode, quick little. And I didn't have an hour free. [01:00:09] Speaker A: I'm glad we're we. I'm not glad we didn't because I want to discuss it with you, but I'm glad we didn't in the sense that I, I honestly thought about it afterwards was like, I hate discussing things when it's only one of a TV show. I can see the idea of the only way I can see is a quick non spoiler. Hey, this is a great episode of a TV show. You should watch the whole series. This is going to be good. Keep, you know, tune in every week, that kind of thing. Yeah, but discussing and breaking down the positives and negatives. It's like at the end of the. [01:00:36] Speaker B: Show on like 45 minutes. [01:00:38] Speaker A: There's no, there's no. There are things that are cliffhangers that need to be answered in the next episode. [01:00:43] Speaker B: Right. [01:00:43] Speaker A: Like, you can't be like, well, I wish they discussed this. Like, well, especially an adaptation. An adaptation of a comic book. We're like, oh, they didn't talk about this. Like, well, they have seven more episodes to do that. So there's a possibility. [01:00:52] Speaker B: Calm down. [01:00:53] Speaker A: At the end of the eight episodes, we could then discuss and say, hey, they missed this in this first season. They should have been. It was the first docs edition that should have been on a TV show or whatever. I'll tell you right now, anybody's listening to this, watch it because it's, it's great. It's great for people who are fans of the revival comic book series, but also great for people who are just, just want something different on TV right now. And it's one of those things we. [01:01:12] Speaker B: We started this morning. Liz is, Liz is saying what she goes. I can see this being a, A, a television property. Like the acting isn't. [01:01:21] Speaker A: Yes. [01:01:22] Speaker B: As good as maybe it could be if this was something else. [01:01:24] Speaker A: It gets better. [01:01:25] Speaker B: But overall, she's interested in the plot. [01:01:27] Speaker A: And everything the beginning is kind of weird at the acting, but it gets better as this episode goes along, for sure. [01:01:32] Speaker B: And I think any shows like that too. It takes a while for actors to figure out who their character is, how they interact with fellow characters, all that. I mean, you watch any, any big show that we all might all love the property of. You watch that first season. They're usually a little. Eh, yeah. And then it's much better. [01:01:48] Speaker A: It's. There was. I'll say, I won't spoil it for anybody, but the ending line to the episode, I literally went, hell yeah. Until I was like, what? They go, you, you just, just wait. So there's a, there's an ep, there's the first issue of the comic book. There's an end. It ends the same way, which is amazing. And I cannot wait to be able to read that. So. But yeah, the title of the episode, it gives it away, but that's, that's beyond that, so it doesn't really matter. But, but yeah, so Back to the Future, you know, your, your, your positive review here on the Case and Tights podcast. It's a, you know, an anomaly when we're talking movies here. But yeah, we'll, we'll, we'll on a movie next time we're talking. But that's the next time we have. [01:02:25] Speaker B: Back to the Future. Dick Tracy, Ninja Turtles. [01:02:29] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:02:30] Speaker B: What is that? It was only like. I mean, so like Star Wars. [01:02:35] Speaker A: Well, Star wars. Yeah, for the people. I said myself is not as much for you. Are you happy? [01:02:40] Speaker B: I always tell people I don't hate Star wars actually, so. [01:02:44] Speaker A: But here's my question. Are you feeling anywhere similar to a possible sequel to this movie we just talked about compared to what your, your favorite Star wars movie coming out here? Spaceballs too. Are you, Are you feeling. [01:02:57] Speaker B: Not even. I, I. Boy, I'm scared because you talk about that whole. Having that anticipation, right? And all that excitement and all those expectations to live up to, and I absolutely love Spaceball. So Seeing space. [01:03:10] Speaker A: So, so, so I'll tell you right now, the best thing is Bill Pullman coming back. You know, Mel Brooks playing yogurt, like all that stuff. [01:03:15] Speaker B: Rick Moranis. [01:03:16] Speaker A: Rick Moranis. However, what I will say, and this is not to bring you down or anything like that, but I loved History of the World Part 1, the TV show that came out afterwards on Hulu. History of the World Part two was a letdown in the sense that there was so much riding on the fact that it was a, a first of a sequel, first of a duel that Never made the sequel. It was like a whole. Was a whole part of the joke where there was no part two. It was only part one. [01:03:42] Speaker B: It's literally that in. In the Spaceballs movie. [01:03:45] Speaker A: Yes. [01:03:45] Speaker B: We'll meet again on the quest for more money. [01:03:47] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, yeah. And so. So we'll see. [01:03:49] Speaker B: I. Yeah. [01:03:50] Speaker A: Mel Brooks is a freaking hilarious dude, and Rick Moran is coming back. I think it has hope. [01:03:56] Speaker B: I have hope for it. Bill Pullman's son is on it. [01:04:00] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:04:01] Speaker B: It sounds like they're gonna. They're gonna have a new character for Barfront. I think it'd be fun to have. Sort of funny to do the junk. Yeah, he's the mug. [01:04:08] Speaker A: Like, yeah, yeah, it would be funny. I'm excited. It will be interesting to see where they go with it. And you just have the barf get. [01:04:16] Speaker B: Hit by a car. Like, he's chasing a car. You could definitely do the same. That. I feel like that. That would be a great homage to John Candy and the comedy that John Candy brought all about us. [01:04:27] Speaker A: Well, it gets hit by a van because the van. Home Alone. [01:04:34] Speaker B: Oh, my God. Yes. [01:04:36] Speaker A: He's playing poker. Music in the background. We'll just, like, pull that right into it. [01:04:40] Speaker B: Yep. Yeah, there we go. [01:04:41] Speaker A: But, yeah, like I said, if they use the Schwartz Awakens as the name of the movie that I've seen online, I will also be excited. [01:04:47] Speaker B: Oh, my God. Hell, yes. [01:04:49] Speaker A: If the Schwartz Awakens. That's again, another good. Another good role on that. [01:04:52] Speaker B: But absolutely. [01:04:52] Speaker A: That's for another time. Maybe we'll talk about that one. Maybe we'll do Space Balls when that gets ready to come out. [01:04:57] Speaker B: And that's gonna be. That'll be interesting. [01:04:59] Speaker A: We should do a live, like, in person. Watch it, talk about it, discuss it, laugh, that kind of thing. We're discussing what we wanted to do. One of those. I think that fits the. The. The. The. The thing. But. But, yeah, Galactic Comics. [01:05:10] Speaker B: I'll be reciting every freaking line in the movie. I've seen it so many times. I could probably do all of them. [01:05:15] Speaker A: We'll get shut down. [01:05:16] Speaker B: I can probably do that one man acting thing where you relive the whole movie. [01:05:20] Speaker A: Here's the deal. We're not going to review the movie. We're going to review Paul's interpretation of the movie. And we're gonna do it live. We're gonna do it. We're gonna have, like, little models. We'll use, like, a little. I have the Winnebago over there we can use. [01:05:36] Speaker B: Hey, there we go. [01:05:37] Speaker A: Walking Dead. [01:05:38] Speaker B: No, sir. I didn't see you playing with your. [01:05:39] Speaker A: Dolls again, but yeah, yeah. Galactic Comics and Collectibles is on Hammond street in Bangor, Maine. If you are in the Bangor, Maine area, you can also find them at GalacticComicsAndCollectibles.com as well as Instagram. [01:05:51] Speaker B: By the. By the end of this year, let's. I don't want to say this is going to be anytime too soon, so we're gonna go by the end of this year. Galacticomicscollectibles.com will be better than it currently is. [01:05:59] Speaker A: It is what it is. You find stuff, just message them on Facebook and say, I'm looking for this. [01:06:03] Speaker B: They might have it back to social media. Yeah. That's why I tell them, follow social. [01:06:07] Speaker A: Media, because they also like pictures of things that are like, you might be like, I want that. And he can send it to you.
