[00:00:00 - 00:00:04] Oh I'm about to shout somebody out. Oh go for it. Oh no, Micah Fisher. Oh Micah
[00:00:04 - 00:00:06] Do you not like the British pride? You gave this movie three and a half stars. What?
[00:00:07 - 00:00:09] Micah
[00:00:18 - 00:00:27] Grant! Drew, it's your birthday. Not really. Not really, but we were traveling when it was my actual birthday
[00:00:27 - 00:00:29] You are now
[00:00:29 - 00:00:34] 45. I am. We are no longer... Everyone always asks us our ages. 45, 21.
[00:00:34 - 00:00:41] So we're the dynamic we have, but I know I'm 23. If anybody's like super curious
[00:00:42 - 00:00:47] We're still not being the film bro allegations. There's still gonna be some ageism in the comments. There is a lot of age
[00:00:47 - 00:00:53] Everyone's like you're too young to have opinions and to know things. I'm like, well, just do a little research
[00:00:53 - 00:00:57] I'm like, yeah, we I've watched a lot of movies. Yeah, a lot of books, but
[00:00:58 - 00:01:00] But yeah, 23. What did you do for your birthday?
[00:01:01 - 00:01:06] What did I do? On my birthday itself, I worked and then I watched Avatar The Last Airbender with my wife
[00:01:06 - 00:01:11] Okay, but then the birthday weekend like the Saturday after my birthday
[00:01:11 - 00:01:17] My whole family went and saw the Odyssey together. That's true. And that was a lot of fun dope very I had a movie
[00:01:17 - 00:01:20] themed birthday a little bit and then we played some Catan and
[00:01:20 - 00:01:24] Got kind of mad at each other and it was awesome. Yeah, that's poor for the course
[00:01:24 - 00:01:28] Now I had a great birthday, but every time I think it's hot. I get so mad at Ethan
[00:01:28 - 00:01:32] Ethan is my brother. He's a very good at Catan
[00:01:32 - 00:01:37] Which I don't know how it's possible because it's like chance and luck, but he's just good at it. It's annoying
[00:01:37 - 00:01:43] But this is very annoying. Anyway, that's okay. Yeah, I've won a game though. Oh, good job
[00:01:43 - 00:01:47] I didn't well my wife actually won the game when we play but I have won a game
[00:01:47 - 00:01:51] Which is an important distinction. No, I was proud of her but anyways, we're here now
[00:01:51 - 00:01:57] We are reading on stole my line. Yeah, glad to be with you all for my birthday celebration today
[00:01:57 - 00:02:02] It's very smoky right now. It's a smoky fire, but I have a confession to make okay
[00:02:02 - 00:02:09] I have I hyped something up on an episode that probably like two people remember that I said but for those two people I
[00:02:10 - 00:02:14] Hyped up a specific present. Oh that I was supposed to get that you were supposed to get
[00:02:14 - 00:02:19] Oh, no, like it's gonna be the greatest thing ever. I'm sure it will be it will be eventually not today
[00:02:19 - 00:02:21] Not that day. I had a feeling
[00:02:22 - 00:02:26] Turned out to be a little more expensive than I thought it would be that's okay. I was a little over ambitious
[00:02:26 - 00:02:28] I'm sure that shocks you know it's a year
[00:02:29 - 00:02:31] Drew's never over ambitious or overly optimistic ever
[00:02:31 - 00:02:37] But if you want you to afford this present subscribe right now, yes, so he can make more money off this podcast
[00:02:37 - 00:02:39] No, I'm just kidding but um
[00:02:39 - 00:02:46] It was a dope idea. I'm sure it will be a dope. It will come to fruition eventually. Okay, but today is not that
[00:02:46 - 00:02:51] I'm okay. I'm patient or patient here. We are we are very patient, but I have gotten you a present
[00:02:51 - 00:02:55] Okay, so is it time to open it right now? I think it is okay as you can see viewers
[00:02:56 - 00:03:02] It's a nicely wrapped. I am very good at wrapping. We had an off-camera debate on if this is a wrapped present
[00:03:02 - 00:03:06] We're just a concealed present. I think it's a wrap present. It is it is I don't know
[00:03:06 - 00:03:09] This is great. I will say I don't have an knife on me
[00:03:09 - 00:03:14] So drew this is something about drew that if you guys just don't know this you if you don't know drew
[00:03:14 - 00:03:17] You probably don't know this but he like always has a knife on it
[00:03:17 - 00:03:21] That is most of the time true like a like pretty 24-7
[00:03:21 - 00:03:23] To the point where when we were kids
[00:03:23 - 00:03:26] This is like bad knife safety right here when we were kids
[00:03:26 - 00:03:30] He would like just have it it's knife in his athletic shorts when we were at sleepovers and stuff. It's true
[00:03:33 - 00:03:35] That is that is on the internet, but that is a true fact
[00:03:35 - 00:03:39] That's right. I did take this and this tape is like just not easy to cut. Oh, that's awkward
[00:03:39 - 00:03:44] It's okay. There's forgiveness here on stop my line. It was the last minute wrapping decision
[00:03:44 - 00:03:46] really
[00:03:47 - 00:03:49] I couldn't tell uh
[00:03:49 - 00:03:51] We're just gonna rip the tape off
[00:03:51 - 00:03:56] I'm gonna hand you back. You can close that if you're listening on audio first off. Thank you for being here second
[00:03:56 - 00:03:58] I'm so sorry that this is kind of
[00:03:58 - 00:04:00] Massacred audio. Oh my gosh. I
[00:04:02 - 00:04:07] Have very unfortunate news. I already own one of these. No, I know I'm so sorry
[00:04:07 - 00:04:13] But I'm also so excited for both of these brick. I can just get another one. We'll just return it
[00:04:14 - 00:04:17] But I don't have the receipt. It's okay. Do you have the card? Yeah, okay?
[00:04:17 - 00:04:20] I'm gonna reveal to the audience what you got. Okay, maybe I have the receipt for mine
[00:04:21 - 00:04:23] Okay, do you have the 4k? I do
[00:04:24 - 00:04:29] I know I watched it the other week. I know I was in my letterbox review. Okay. I know that's why I bought it for you
[00:04:29 - 00:04:34] Okay. Well, here we are Barry Linden 4k. I love this movie by the way. I give it five stars. It's incredible
[00:04:34 - 00:04:37] Um, I do own this. I should have asked you. You should have asked poly
[00:04:38 - 00:04:40] Yes, that would have asked poly anyway
[00:04:40 - 00:04:43] That would have been the ball will if I return this and get another one
[00:04:44 - 00:04:47] I will say on the podcast what I got for anybody who like really wants to know
[00:04:47 - 00:04:52] But this one I have not seen I'm very excited for I want to watch this with you because I've been wanting to watch this
[00:04:52 - 00:04:54] Movie for a long time 12 angry men. Uh, it's just the blue ray there
[00:04:54 - 00:04:59] I think criterion's coming out with a 4k soon of this one, but still I don't really care. This is awesome
[00:05:00 - 00:05:03] I'm so stoked. We'll watch this together at some point. Maybe even review it on the pot
[00:05:03 - 00:05:07] Yeah, I'm sorry about the Barry Linden. That sucks. It does because I saw that you gave it five stars
[00:05:08 - 00:05:11] And I should have clocked that potentially you could own it
[00:05:11 - 00:05:17] I said in my review that the criterion 4k looks amazing. Ah, so I need that. I'm just a bad friend. No, it's okay
[00:05:18 - 00:05:20] I know you don't read every one of my letterbox reviews, but thank you
[00:05:20 - 00:05:26] You're welcome. You're welcome and I might trade this out for sentimental value or something. Yeah, which might be a good trade
[00:05:26 - 00:05:29] But I also think I bought the last sentimental value, but
[00:05:29 - 00:05:34] They might have we might just be caught honestly and just no more criterion. So there was still a lot there
[00:05:34 - 00:05:38] No, um, well, thank you. You're welcome. So we're actually talking about a movie today
[00:05:38 - 00:05:41] We are there's a preamble, but we kind of do that when we have birthday pods apparently
[00:05:41 - 00:05:48] Also, this is the first time in a while that I forgot my present. Oh, and that's ironic. Yeah, uh, I got a mug
[00:05:48 - 00:05:52] You could go watch the other one, but well, yeah, yeah, that was for your birthday. Sorry. I remember
[00:05:52 - 00:05:55] I got you true to active on blue ray. I think that that was for christmas. Yeah
[00:05:56 - 00:05:57] Yes, okay
[00:05:57 - 00:06:00] Um, we're talking about a movie a movie that I also own 4k criteria
[00:06:01 - 00:06:03] Um, and it is the princess bride
[00:06:03 - 00:06:08] We kind of just have this tradition that on our birthday we talk about whatever movie whatever movie the whatever person wants to
[00:06:08 - 00:06:11] Pick and this is currently number one on my letterbox
[00:06:12 - 00:06:16] Like top four. Okay. It's my favorite movie. So my first question for you. Okay
[00:06:17 - 00:06:21] Hey, this movie is classic. This movie is great. If you haven't seen it like that's crazy
[00:06:21 - 00:06:27] What are you doing? Uh, we will be spoiling princess bride. Uh, please go like stop this video if you have not seen princess bride one
[00:06:27 - 00:06:30] I'm not one to shame people but shame on you
[00:06:30 - 00:06:35] Um, I there's forgiveness but shame on you pause this video. Go watch it come back
[00:06:36 - 00:06:41] And hear me say shame on you again, but I'm proud of you for having watched it and coming back and coming back
[00:06:42 - 00:06:45] Yeah, um, yes princess bride one of my favorite movies ever. Why?
[00:06:46 - 00:06:52] There's a lot of reasons I was actually thinking about this like specifically knowing that I was going to have to talk about this movie. Um,
[00:06:53 - 00:06:55] I think like
[00:06:55 - 00:06:57] You can just say like, oh, it's a classic. Oh, it's like
[00:06:57 - 00:06:59] whatever, um
[00:06:59 - 00:07:06] I think there's a lot of elements that make this movie so good and so rewatchable for me. Um, I think this movie is incredibly well made
[00:07:06 - 00:07:07] Like
[00:07:07 - 00:07:11] Looks amazing. Definitely a little cheesy like the ro us's look a little silly
[00:07:12 - 00:07:17] But like it's just it looks great. Um, I think every performance is awesome
[00:07:18 - 00:07:22] Like like this movie is so quotable. So funny. The one-liners here
[00:07:23 - 00:07:27] They're awesome. We're funny when I was 10 and they are still more hilarious than they were
[00:07:27 - 00:07:33] This movie has aged incredibly for sure. Um, I if you didn't grow up on it, which I kind of did
[00:07:33 - 00:07:38] I think you might have a harder time getting into it. It's a little bit more of a cult classic
[00:07:38 - 00:07:42] That's just turned into a classic. Do you think that's true? This movie was not popular when it came out
[00:07:42 - 00:07:44] well, that's true, but like
[00:07:44 - 00:07:46] Do you think that it's true that
[00:07:46 - 00:07:50] If you weren't raised on like we were like my mom showed this to me when I was like eight
[00:07:51 - 00:07:53] So like we have both
[00:07:53 - 00:07:57] Watch this at least once a year for a whole for our entire life. Yeah
[00:07:57 - 00:08:01] But I would argue that it like this movie is funny. Funny. No. Yeah, this is 100 funny
[00:08:01 - 00:08:04] I think you can totally enjoy it if you didn't grow up on it
[00:08:04 - 00:08:07] I saw somebody comment this on we were talking about star wars recently
[00:08:07 - 00:08:12] Which by the way, if you haven't seen our star wars hot takes videos or watch it marathon go watch those
[00:08:12 - 00:08:18] Those are on the channel. Um, but somebody commented like hey, I just I watched star wars
[00:08:19 - 00:08:22] Like just recently. Yeah, um for the first time
[00:08:22 - 00:08:26] I didn't grow up on it and I kind of like uh, it's a it's all right
[00:08:26 - 00:08:31] Um, which if I can't I don't remember your name whoever commented that but I'm referencing you
[00:08:31 - 00:08:33] so sorry, I forgot your name, but
[00:08:34 - 00:08:37] I think that's like kind of not really an element here
[00:08:37 - 00:08:40] But it totally could be if like if you didn't grow up on you be like, oh, it's a good movie. Yeah
[00:08:41 - 00:08:43] You might not even like it. I think it's hilarious
[00:08:43 - 00:08:48] But I will say I I think I'd like this movie more every single time I watch it like
[00:08:49 - 00:08:51] I think if you've only seen it once you should go back and rewatch it
[00:08:51 - 00:08:54] Maybe that's what I'm trying to say here. Why do you think it grows on you?
[00:08:55 - 00:08:59] Well, okay. I think there's a lot of timelessness in like the story itself
[00:08:59 - 00:09:00] I agree
[00:09:00 - 00:09:02] Obviously like it's about love
[00:09:03 - 00:09:06] Like this movie is true. Wow true love
[00:09:07 - 00:09:09] And like yes, Wesley and buttercup
[00:09:09 - 00:09:14] But there's a timelessness specifically with like the grandfather and the grandson. Yeah
[00:09:15 - 00:09:18] And that love story and that affection and then like
[00:09:19 - 00:09:23] It's it's wrapped into storytelling itself, which is like one of my favorite things
[00:09:24 - 00:09:29] So like the fact that love and emotion and connection are tied into storytelling. It's just it's so good
[00:09:29 - 00:09:30] um
[00:09:30 - 00:09:35] And I think like as you get older if you have a child or maybe a grandchild or
[00:09:36 - 00:09:39] I mean, we all have a parent or a grandparents somewhere
[00:09:39 - 00:09:41] If you're close with them or not, but like
[00:09:42 - 00:09:45] You know, there's somebody you're connected to or close to in your life most likely
[00:09:46 - 00:09:48] and I think that idea of like
[00:09:49 - 00:09:51] Loving somebody being close to someone
[00:09:51 - 00:09:54] Is conveyed so well. And so like whether you have a grandparent
[00:09:54 - 00:09:59] You you were close to or are close to or a son or grandson or daughter granddaughter
[00:09:59 - 00:10:03] You're close to like those themes are timeless to everybody. I think that was long-winded, but that's
[00:10:04 - 00:10:09] When I talk about the themes of the movie and think about those that's where some of the timelessness comes in
[00:10:09 - 00:10:12] Yeah, and then paired with just like the actions so fun
[00:10:13 - 00:10:15] I think straight up the best sword fight ever put to screen
[00:10:16 - 00:10:19] I I would love to hear somebody argue another point
[00:10:20 - 00:10:23] I don't have one off the dome. I think this is better than every lightsaber fight in star wars
[00:10:23 - 00:10:29] Oh, that's crazy. Even like freaking most of our yes, this even do all the fates. This fight is better
[00:10:29 - 00:10:32] It's better. I promise you this. I mean like
[00:10:34 - 00:10:39] Maybe not emotionally that's about a piss. So I don't care. I don't even care anymore. It's my birthday
[00:10:40 - 00:10:41] um
[00:10:41 - 00:10:43] No, I I think that this fight
[00:10:43 - 00:10:46] It I mean the the character introduction of the man in black
[00:10:47 - 00:10:51] Which is westley obviously and I think you everybody kind of knows it when he right pops up
[00:10:52 - 00:10:53] but like
[00:10:53 - 00:10:55] The way the film kind of presents his
[00:10:56 - 00:10:58] Just intellectual prowess
[00:10:58 - 00:11:02] But also like his physical prowess like he is literally goaded at everything
[00:11:02 - 00:11:07] But also he's like kind and not a jerk about it. Yes. Yeah, he's not up and killing everybody
[00:11:07 - 00:11:09] Yeah, like he chooses not to kill inigo
[00:11:09 - 00:11:11] Or physique like he doesn't kill either of them
[00:11:12 - 00:11:13] um
[00:11:13 - 00:11:17] So anyway, like I think the way his introduction is so good
[00:11:18 - 00:11:20] um, and that ties into the fight so well
[00:11:21 - 00:11:22] um
[00:11:22 - 00:11:25] And then like right before the fight you get in it goes back story
[00:11:25 - 00:11:29] Yeah, and like his revenge are it's just like I think the setup for the fight is so good
[00:11:29 - 00:11:35] And the fight is like it's super well choreographed, but also it's like kind of goofy. Yeah, like
[00:11:36 - 00:11:41] When they're like doing flips off the bar and stuff like the conveniently placed bar with two handholds
[00:11:41 - 00:11:46] Yeah, it's like you see the trampoline and it's it feels so much like when you would read a story as a kid
[00:11:46 - 00:11:48] Like it's that fantastical like
[00:11:48 - 00:11:51] It it just plays into that just enough
[00:11:51 - 00:11:54] But it doesn't like go off the deep end with being goofy
[00:11:54 - 00:12:01] Like I say self serious enough, but also it's goofy enough. I like just finds the balance there. So anyway, that's just
[00:12:01 - 00:12:03] I mean the action is great. Um
[00:12:04 - 00:12:09] But this is something I like to my rewatch. I'm just gonna talk. That's it's your birthday. This is me talking
[00:12:09 - 00:12:13] Whatever you are. Um, here's the guest on this podcast. No, uh
[00:12:14 - 00:12:21] But what I like that the movie does is that it shows Wesley as like being goaded and then it it nerfs him true
[00:12:21 - 00:12:27] It's like no Wesley's literally dead and then they bring him back. He's almost dead. He's almost he's mostly mostly dead
[00:12:28 - 00:12:29] um
[00:12:29 - 00:12:30] but
[00:12:30 - 00:12:31] then he like
[00:12:31 - 00:12:35] Can't use all of his physical traits and stuff that like he uses at the beginning of the movie
[00:12:36 - 00:12:38] and he has to like
[00:12:38 - 00:12:39] Get buttercup back
[00:12:39 - 00:12:42] By just being smart and cunning and wise and all these things
[00:12:43 - 00:12:49] And so I like that the movie doesn't just like have him win another swordfight or whatever like it's him trying to like
[00:12:50 - 00:12:53] I don't know plan and sneak his way into the castle to get buttercup back
[00:12:53 - 00:12:57] So I think the movie just like kind of finds its footing there, too
[00:12:57 - 00:13:04] Yeah, I agree. So your thoughts on your princess friday watch. Uh, I get to talk now. Yeah, you can talk now
[00:13:05 - 00:13:07] Uh, it's fine. Um
[00:13:08 - 00:13:10] Yeah, I mean, I think this movie is
[00:13:10 - 00:13:12] Great. It was funnier than I remembered
[00:13:13 - 00:13:14] It's so funny
[00:13:14 - 00:13:20] Like there's there are the quotable lines of like marriage and my name is Anika Montoya
[00:13:20 - 00:13:21] You come out of a pair to die
[00:13:21 - 00:13:26] But then there are like the subtle lines that I have forgotten about that are wokey funnier. Yes 100%
[00:13:26 - 00:13:30] I mean every other line I had everyone's mouth. I'm like that's just great comedy
[00:13:31 - 00:13:36] This movie is kind of a gold mine for just like funny quips and like the script is great. It's so good
[00:13:36 - 00:13:40] It's so good, which by the way this was written by the guy the script was written by the guy who wrote the book
[00:13:40 - 00:13:45] Which is like that's awesome. Also like that never happens. So maybe it's like it's not a faithful adaptation
[00:13:45 - 00:13:50] It's literally written by the same guy. So all the changes that were made were like kind of made by him. Yeah, so
[00:13:51 - 00:13:53] um
[00:13:53 - 00:13:56] But yeah, and like again, I I also have this out of this movie of like
[00:13:57 - 00:14:01] What grew up watching it we did a play in seventh grade that was like
[00:14:01 - 00:14:03] Basically an adaptation of princess bride. Yeah, we did
[00:14:04 - 00:14:07] Um, so like a lot of the lines were just like ripped straight from the movie 100%
[00:14:07 - 00:14:12] So I like know them and I have I like oh, that's a friend who said that line playing the grandfather
[00:14:13 - 00:14:15] playing the little boy
[00:14:17 - 00:14:19] So yeah, like this movie is just
[00:14:20 - 00:14:24] A lot of childhood has been spent. Yeah with this movie. Yeah, I think it's everything
[00:14:24 - 00:14:29] You could want in a movie as an adult you want something funny. That's you know a brisk
[00:14:30 - 00:14:33] What's it? Maybe close to two hours doesn't feel long
[00:14:33 - 00:14:37] I mean you can always pause it pick it back up later if you've seen it a million times
[00:14:38 - 00:14:40] But then it's like as something to show your kids one day
[00:14:41 - 00:14:42] Um
[00:14:42 - 00:14:46] Like I think this movie has kind of everything that you need for something like that
[00:14:46 - 00:14:53] Um, and yeah, it's aged incredibly. So it is one of the most rewatchable movies. Oh, yeah, totally
[00:14:53 - 00:14:56] Like I I don't think I ever get sick of rewatching this movie ever
[00:14:56 - 00:14:59] Um, I think part of the reason it's my number one as well is like
[00:15:00 - 00:15:02] I do have personal attachment to this movie
[00:15:03 - 00:15:05] Like outside of just like I grew up on it
[00:15:05 - 00:15:11] Because my family has the weirdest tradition like of all time. It's a weird tradition. We do but this one like especially is weird
[00:15:12 - 00:15:14] It's it's not really weird random
[00:15:14 - 00:15:20] But we watch this movie the morning like Thanksgiving morning, which in the states Thanksgiving is like a big thing
[00:15:20 - 00:15:25] We watch that every year Thanksgiving morning for like no reason
[00:15:25 - 00:15:27] There's like no no reasoning behind it
[00:15:27 - 00:15:31] We just did it one year and we've done it every year since if you want to hear more of our family traditions
[00:15:31 - 00:15:36] Go watch our charlie brown Thanksgiving episode. That's true. That's true. I think I probably said that on that episode as well
[00:15:37 - 00:15:41] Um, but like my brother texted me because I was out of town for this past Thanksgiving
[00:15:41 - 00:15:45] Um, he was like, hey like we're watching the princess bride without you and I was like super sad
[00:15:46 - 00:15:49] So is that um, so this year I'm excited to run that how did that start?
[00:15:49 - 00:15:51] I literally think I put it on one Thanksgiving
[00:15:52 - 00:15:57] And it's just like the everything. Yeah, okay. I think that's it like there was no other reasoning
[00:15:57 - 00:16:02] But now there is like some fall vibes in there of like yeah all the leaves are changing color
[00:16:03 - 00:16:07] It's a bit of a reach. There's no real reasoning, but I love this movie
[00:16:07 - 00:16:11] So you watch like princess bride the morning and knives out at night. Oh man. That's a good fight
[00:16:12 - 00:16:16] It is funny that two of my movies in my top four are kind of more fall vibes
[00:16:16 - 00:16:18] I think that's like
[00:16:18 - 00:16:23] Just a thing about me and then you have indiana jones and don't tell me. Oh, it's it's so easy
[00:16:25 - 00:16:28] Uh, what's my favorite three movies of all time?
[00:16:29 - 00:16:31] Oh, the rings of hellish up. Yes. Yeah
[00:16:31 - 00:16:34] Which somebody called me. I think was it kenzie
[00:16:35 - 00:16:37] I think maybe it was kenzie called me whimsy man at one point. Yeah
[00:16:38 - 00:16:43] Which like it is kind of funny because my top four are super whimsical and hilarious, but
[00:16:44 - 00:16:49] I don't know what it is. I just love those movies. You're unashamed. I'm unashamed and that's that's good
[00:16:49 - 00:16:53] Um, I mean, I don't know how much else to say about the princess bride. I mean, it's it's goaded
[00:16:53 - 00:16:57] I love this movie. Um, if you don't love this movie, I want to hear why
[00:16:58 - 00:17:01] You aren't the biggest fan. Oh, I'm about to shout somebody out. Oh go for it. Oh, no
[00:17:01 - 00:17:05] Micah Fisher. Oh my god. Do you not like the princess bride? You gave this movie three and a half stars. What?
[00:17:06 - 00:17:10] Micah, uh, we need an explanation. I read your letter box review
[00:17:11 - 00:17:15] I don't really remember what you said but comment Micah Micah. We need an explanation from you here
[00:17:16 - 00:17:20] It pains my soul, man. I knew it would do. Oh, that hurts me
[00:17:20 - 00:17:22] You and I were buddies with the last Jedi. Yeah
[00:17:23 - 00:17:25] Why are you my buddy with the princess bride?
[00:17:25 - 00:17:29] No, that's that actually that's okay. I'll forgive you if you there's forgiveness
[00:17:29 - 00:17:34] You give me good reasoning if it's that you didn't grow up on it. That's okay. Yeah, it is okay
[00:17:34 - 00:17:37] I think it's like I think this is a perfect movie personally
[00:17:38 - 00:17:40] For what it's trying to do
[00:17:40 - 00:17:43] But if somebody's like, hey, this isn't a five star movie. I'm not gonna like knock you up for that
[00:17:44 - 00:17:48] I probably have some personal attachment that's like bumped it up there for me. So
[00:17:48 - 00:17:51] But I don't know any other questions anything you want to talk about with the princess
[00:17:51 - 00:17:54] Who's your favorite character and you can't say Wesley?
[00:17:55 - 00:17:59] I don't think Wesley's my favorite. Oh, really? I mean like I love Wesley so much and he's awesome
[00:18:00 - 00:18:04] But I kind of think my favorite character is inigo. Yeah. It's like hard not to say inigo because
[00:18:05 - 00:18:09] His character arc it's like the best revenge arc probably outside of the calm Monte Cristo ever
[00:18:10 - 00:18:15] At least in like movies. I don't know. Maybe that's not true. The revenant's great. I still haven't seen the revenant
[00:18:17 - 00:18:20] But I own it. I think it's one of the best ones you own the revenue. You've never seen it
[00:18:20 - 00:18:24] I own a lot of movies that I haven't seen I actually do too. Yeah, I went and looked at like I have a
[00:18:25 - 00:18:28] Letterbox list that's like my blu-ray collection. I've only seen 85 of them
[00:18:28 - 00:18:32] Yeah, like I need to go through some of those ones because you passed your chronic spending habit to me
[00:18:33 - 00:18:35] I did and now we just buy stuff now. We just buy stuff
[00:18:36 - 00:18:37] Um
[00:18:37 - 00:18:42] Yeah, I mean this movie's goaded back to the princess ride. It is goaded. Um
[00:18:42 - 00:18:46] Rob Reiner's also goaded true. It was goaded. Um as a director like he
[00:18:47 - 00:18:52] Stayed my means great. I mean, there's so much stuff that he just he killed it when harry met Sally
[00:18:52 - 00:18:54] Yes, also incredible. Um
[00:18:55 - 00:18:57] Gosh, why am I blanking on it?
[00:18:57 - 00:19:00] The tom cruise jack Nicholson, uh the courtroom drama
[00:19:01 - 00:19:06] Why wow, I feel so stupid. You know, it's like you can't handle the truth. Yeah, I know. What is that movie?
[00:19:06 - 00:19:08] Oh, my oh a few good men. Yes, there we go
[00:19:08 - 00:19:13] You know when you do a film podcast and you forget something as like classic as a few good men
[00:19:14 - 00:19:16] It's just you feel stupid. You do feel stupid. So
[00:19:17 - 00:19:19] Boost already goes in the comments, please
[00:19:19 - 00:19:20] We're insecure
[00:19:20 - 00:19:22] spinal tap
[00:19:23 - 00:19:24] It's great
[00:19:24 - 00:19:27] Rob Reiner's goaded. He's got it. But yeah, I mean this movie's incredible
[00:19:28 - 00:19:32] I have watched all the behind the scenes and I will probably watch this movie again before
[00:19:32 - 00:19:37] July is out. So really maybe I've put it on his background. I was like all the time
[00:19:37 - 00:19:44] This is fellowship for you is I my family did get me 4k's of the Lord of the Rings and it was awesome
[00:19:44 - 00:19:46] Yeah, it looked incredible. So
[00:19:46 - 00:19:51] Um, anyway, I don't really have anything else anything. Oh, we I guess we give our rating
[00:19:52 - 00:19:54] Oh, uh, by a blue eye
[00:19:54 - 00:19:57] That was the easiest rating of all time easy easy easy
[00:19:57 - 00:20:02] To your kids. I'm out of party. You're at a party drew. Okay. It's actually it's not my birthday. No way
[00:20:03 - 00:20:06] Okay, no, no, we'll change the question. It's my birthday party
[00:20:06 - 00:20:09] Well, if it's your birthday, I'm willing to do whatever you want to do because it's your birthday
[00:20:09 - 00:20:11] No, but okay now now we have to choose a question
[00:20:11 - 00:20:13] Because it ruins the question. Okay
[00:20:13 - 00:20:17] No, here's the thing drew you're at a party and it's my birthday. It's your birthday
[00:20:17 - 00:20:21] But there's like 50 people here, which I would never do by the way. I hate like birthday parties and everything

[00:20:25 - 00:20:28] And princess bride is on in our living room. Yeah, what are you doing?
