guys, it is onscreen offscreen and we have a special episode where we are all together as Josh decided to fly all the way here from Hawaii, just for this, it didn't come for any other reason. Yeah, just really wanting to do podcast in person, not his family, nothing. We are doing a special episode this time where each one of us chose a topic for the other one to watch and then we watched it and we're gonna review it. Um, I'm gonna start with the one that I chose for Lauren. It's Your Lie in April. It's an anime and the reason that I chose this was because I just love making Martin cry. I'm just kidding. She talked about how much she likes crying. Um, and so I was like, you know what would be perfect your lie in April? It's the saddest, most wonderful thing I've maybe ever seen while we were discussing topics for each other. Conlin and I asked Lauren, what are you in the mood for? Yeah. And then we asked, what did I say with anime? And she said, yes, I'm okay with anime. And she said, I would like something happy and uplifting and I've got to say both Conlin and I failed. And that's objective. I think your line in April is half of that. It's uplifting some in some ways. Got it. It makes you want to be a better person, but in itself is not a happy show. Lauren, what do you think? Are there parts of this show that are a little heavy parts like a scene? Okay, we're talking about a scene. It was probably at the very beginning. Because I did not finish this. I could, I tried so hard. I tried really hard, but I just was not in the mood, and I wanted something happy and uplifting my soul. I will try this series another time when I am in an anime mood because I was in a wishy-washy anime mode. Okay. And then like, I was feeling like more action and happy, uplifting. And then I started watching this and it was like a lot of inner monologuing and I kept falling asleep and I, I couldn't, like, I literally watched just something that like did the rundown of what the series was. So I would like, I could be like, yeah, I finished it, but then I was like, no, I won't lie. I didn't finish it. Uh, but I did like the scene where, um, he like comes up on her playing with like the kids, uh, I can't remember. What her name is. But uh, yeah, I really liked that scene. Um, and then I like how she would liked music for like, playing it, that she wasn't there for like, the competition bit, but like what music does for her, I liked. Um, but yeah, I, I could not stay awake and watch this show. So let's break it down a little bit further. Right. What did you think of the animation of the show? Um, I think they had like some pretty bits, but it was kind of all over the place. Um, where, uh, you had like the blonde girl, they put so much attention into her hair and it was great. And then they would have like the little, um. Chile moments where, which I'm fine with, but uh, yeah, I felt like it was a little bit all over the place and you could tell that they did a lot of animation saving time where they would just like stand there sitting or talking or like zoom in on the eyes and stuff a lot. Um, which is funny'cause that's what you get a lot of the times when you have an action anime. Okay. So that they can put a lot more time into like the fight scenes. And so I was wondering what they were spending all their time anime to do so many shortcuts. Um, that's interesting. But I mean, like, I didn't think that it was too, like, too distracting. I mean it was an anime, uh, but I do think that it was like pretty, it was kind of very bright colored at first to then go dark a lot. Um, which I thought was interesting. Uh,'cause they do say like the, when you're in love, everything seems brighter or whatever. Or like more colorful. I can't remember exactly, but I thought that it would've started more monochromatic and then got more colorful, but instead it like was the reverse. And so I was like, maybe I'm not catching on what they're trying to do with that. But yeah, anyway, I think it was, that's a really interesting perspective. Yeah, because I didn't think about any of that. I didn't either. Knowing the entire plot and all of the details and her pointing it out. It actually makes sense to me. Me too, actually. Um. That's one of the things I thought was interesting, but when she was talking, when you were first talking about it, how it like should have been getting brighter and I was like, oh no, that would've been really cool. And then you pointed out that it was getting darker and I was like, oh, now they did that on purpose. Yeah, like that was very, I will try this series again. When I've been in anime, it truly is like fantastic. It's my favorite anime. Oh yeah. Of all time. What did you think of the music? I like, I know you guys like added music onto your playlist because of the show. And I was sitting there and I was like, why? Okay. I'm just gonna move past that.'cause that's just the most insane thing I've ever heard in my entire life. Like, I've always liked classical music, but I don't understand why this anime made you, I didn't like classical music. And then this made you like it. And this gave me a big appreciation for it. Oh, I guess since, same for you. I did like classical music. I played piano when I was younger. This made me like classical music better. I, I usually didn't like listen to classical music, but I appreciated it. I listened to it like actively now because of the, oh, because I, like, I listen to like classical music and stuff when I read, so it's, I was like, yeah. I was like classical music, so I didn't know if, yeah, that was, that's fair because say you appreciated classical music but didn't really listen to it is probably the same thing for me.'cause like, I hate classical music. It's not like mumble wrap, it's just like garbage. It's like when you do mu music theory, like everything stems off of classical music and it's like, I've rather to listen to the music I actually liked and the instrumental stuff. But yeah, I don't actively listen to it all the time anymore, but, mm, after watching this anime, I watched it a whole bunch. Um, so you said there's a bunch of inner monologue, not your favorite thing. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Was the dialogue and the writing at least good if the inner monologue part of it wasn't your favorite? I, well,'cause like there were monologuing across the music all the time. I'm like, shut up and let me listen to the music. Like, let me, I feel like they just over explained everything to you and they didn't leave anything up to interpretation and so I was. Would that have bo you less if you were in more of an anime mood? Because I feel like that's just an anime tropes. Yeah, I think I would've, yeah. I don't think it would've bothered me as much. Okay. Um, but yeah, it's, yeah, I, I'm gonna have to try to watch it again because, yeah, I tried really hard, but this was not the, I guess, the week for me to try and watch it. That's on me guys. I fell, apparently I should have gotten like my little pony instead of something that's a masterpiece apart. I would've just ate up my little pony. I was putting on all of the clues of horses last week. I know. Ridiculous. So guys, I had this rant about horse girls that I did before. So they put horses in the back and they made every Lauren's, all of Lauren's topics were horses. And during our last week, I was like, there's a lot of horse stuff going on. Why is there so many bullet? We had horses shirts. I didn't get it. We had stupid shirt on and she had a pretty good shirt that still had horses. So Lauren, you said you wanted to rewatch it. Yeah. How high on your re, like how high on your list is it to be rewatched or is this like, you know, if I'm in an anime mood and don't really have anything else? Or is this like, when I'm in an animated mood, I'm ready to crush it. It's when I'm in an animated mood. Okay. I'm gonna watch it. Okay. Um, yeah. Would would it still be there if both of us hadn't recommended it so highly? Like just based on what you've seen, like, uh. Before this or like, so like you've watched what you've watched. If, if you took us out of it completely, our recommendation out of it, just based on what you wa you've watched, would you be this kind of, how about going and watching you? Uh, probably not. So with that being said, with what you've seen so far and what you know about what you haven't seen so far, what would you rate it on a scale of one to 10? I would say six because it's not something that like I'm dreading to go watch, uh, it just felt like too much of a chore this week. But if we're doing our whole thing of would I rather watch Black Panther or this, I would watch your light April. It's so painful. It's pretty cool. I actually think that's fair. Um, I can see that perspective. Like I love it, but I don't see it as a masterpiece.'cause everything she said that's critical of it. Like the animation being very hit and miss, like it was a small studio and it's not like they were doing action scenes. So there's that part of it. There's like his trauma can be very like hard to deal with. It was very hard for me to deal with, but like. Could it be too hard for somebody to watch or Absolutely. Something so specific that somebody can't connect to at all. Like I'm not mad at her picking a six out of 10. Like I do believe anybody should give it a higher than five out of 10 because it's clearly better than Black Panther. But it's a show to me that's gonna work for you or not. And like it really worked for you and it did. It pretty well worked for me. And it's not really working for Lauren, but even she's like six outta 10, so, okay. Yeah. I'm interested in what you think when you gets to there, when you actually watch it Follow up podcast whenever she, she watches book your calendars six years from now. Two months and three days. I finally finished that. Please. Finally. Alright, Lauren, go ahead and all. Introduce one of yours. Okay. So I asked Josh to watch Princess Manque. Um, I picked this one because I feel like, uh, out of, um, olive Studio Gili. I know. What is it that you call Gly? Because it makes more sense. It sounds like an actual word. Okay. I'm pretty sure it's, and I don't think of gimme, I've always thought it was jiggly. I think it's jiggly. Yeah. Tell us if we're wrong. Um, but, uh, I've heard it both ways. Uh, I think it's one the, I thought Josh might connect with better of like the Ghibli. Um, but have you seen any of the Gib Ghibli? Ghibli? I've seen, uh, I don't know if these ones are Gly. So your name I saw weathering with you. I saw. Uh, how's Moving Castle? I saw, um, and one other one, and then this one. Uh, so you watched The Boy in the Heron? Yeah. Uh, there's like Eo your neighbor Toro Spirited Away. Za, um, castle in the Sky. Seen that? Oh, there's like another one. There's a bunch of'em. Yeah, there's a bunch of delivery services. So I have a little bit of experience with it, but not a ton. Okay. Yeah. This one's very different than Yeah. All of their others. So I thought that he might like Princess Mon Note gave. What do you think? Well, uh, with my experience with Studio Ghibli, um, I will have to say this, uh, the first time I watched House Moon and Castle, I thought it was so boring and stupid. Um. Like one of the worst shows I've ever seen. Only one I don't like of Gib, of what I've seen with Gib. It's the only one I don't like. I literally have Pals Moving Castle Upon Rewatch. You start to notice a lot more details and it does make it significantly better. Um, it's still not like a show I would rewatch all of the time or would generally put on myself, but it did, like for me, that's a one of the biggest switches.'cause I was like, this sucks. This is garbage show. And then I was forced to rewatch it and I was like, okay, it's not that bad. I have a very similar experience with Dark Night Rises. First time I saw it I was like, this is the worst superhero movie I've ever seen in my life. This sucks. It's the worst thing ever. Rewatching it. I'm like, oh, okay. It's not that bad. It's still not my favorite. I still wouldn't call it good, but it's a lot better than I gave it credit for. Um, princess Mon Noche is, I would have to rewatch it to really fully enjoy it. Um, there are things that I really like. I really like that he's trying to be this person in the middle who's trying to say they're not necessarily bad, they just have their own thing going on and the nature, and they're not necessarily bad either. They've got their own thing. We can work cohesively except the people in town very clearly are just bad. Like if you take away her one, um, redeeming quality and buying out the contracts of the concubines from all the nearby towns and saving them. Empowering them and training them to be more than just selling their bodies. Right. That is the only good thing she does in the entire movie. And it's not something she actually does in the movie. It's something that they say she does. Like when push comes to shove, she abandons them. She treats them like crap. She's holier than the owl. She's on this crusade for no real apparent reason to me other than to say she did it. And in doing so, she literally loses her city, sacrificing them for this cause. Right. And then she accomplishes that cause, and the show just turned really weird for me. Like I did not like it. The forest spirit turning into this giant blob and. Killing everything and all that kind of stuff. It just, it did not work for me. There are some really cool moments. Um, I really liked the romance in it. I really love that she was losing her crap on the main guy and he was just like, you're really pretty. And she was like, wait, what? And she just got really flustered at it. And I'm like, that is such a, like, genuine, like something somebody has actually experienced and put that on screen. And I absolutely love it. But for the overarching story, I didn't absolutely love it. There are some really slow parts. Um, the Samurai just seemed to be like petty little shits. And like, me as a history person, I'm like, they weren't, they weren't that way. You know, like honor was their big thing. Um. That is so deep history with the blah. Well, I mean, like, I know it's not history, but they're using something from history. They, you know, it would be, um, like having a priest and taking it in and being like completely flipping it. And he's not for anything that priests stand for or anything like that. So. Yeah. Yeah. When I picked this cha for you, it was mostly'cause I thought that you would really like the main character. Uh, and there's like the one scene where she stabs him and he just hugs her instead of like retaliating that. I don't know. When I thought of that I was like, Hmm, I think Josh needs to watch this show. But yeah, I didn't really love him too much. He's very clearly like, just like a people pleaser to a thousand, um. Like he doesn't stand on any kind of principles or honor. He is just trying to be like, we can all have what we want. We just need to stop fighting. And he just is on this crusade. And even when like I feel like he should say like, no nature's clearly in the right here. You're just being a douche bag to be a douche bag. Like maybe he should stand on that. And at the end when she's like, I know you need to go back to the city. I was like, why does he need to go back to the city? He's not from that city, that hoe bag started that city. He has nothing to do with that city. Why can't he live with the girl he loves and visit said city when he wants to see all the cool concubine girls who were really funny throughout the show? Um, it's funny because. I saw the show as more of him trying to get, um, like the iron workers, like he realized Oh yeah, they, they're like people that wanna live too, but like, you need to not be taking out the forest. Like you need to figure out how to live with the forest, not be like, Hey forest, it's okay that they're burning you a little bit. Like we can have them burn you a little bit. So like, no, I think it was more of him trying to be like, no, you guys need to respect the forest and be into that. And the reason why he went back to the humans was to be that person who connects'em back with nature, is what I thought that was. Um, but no. Yeah, no, there has to be some deforestation'cause otherwise they wouldn't have places to live or be able to mine or anything. Well, that. So a lot of Miyazaki who, uh, directs studio typically he, throughout all of his works, you'll notice how it's man versus nature and like all of his stuff. Yeah. Um, and so like, and it's usually pretty heavy handed where he is like, no, we're definitely ruining everything. Um, but yeah, I, I feel like this was one of his most clear except for like, oh, it's like something wind, which is another one that's has like a whole bunch of those like pill bug things in it. Do you know? Yeah. I can't remember what else. Yeah, yeah, that one and Princess Manchi, I feel like are the very clear, like, we're taking over the forest and they're retaliating, like nature will retaliate. Um, well, yeah, my point is he's trying to say, let's compromise not. Leave the forest completely alone. Yeah. Because he goes back to the forest, the, the wolves. And he is like, well, they, they've got somewhere, they have to live somewhere. They have to survive him. Like he's really flip-flopping and not standing on a principle. He's just like, yeah, we, we both need to compromise here. You know? We need everybody to be okay and not take everything so personally and stuff. But the message of the movie is very clearly humans are bad and destroying the, yeah. So, yeah, it's not, doesn't stand when it's three steps that the, the movie it does. The movie has the moral, but the character himself is not a morally gray character, which I generally love. Who is actually seeing both sides. He just looks like, he just seems like a pe people pleaser to me. He's like, when he's with the humans, he's like, yeah, you guys are right. You need to be able to mine and, and defend yourselves and this, that and the other. And then he goes to the force people, he's like, no, you guys are right. They're doing too much. And he never goes to the other side and is like, this is their side. He's not the broker. He's the I agree with you and I agree with you. Yeah. Hmm. Let me hang out with you. Yeah. Like stop killing each other. Right. He's willing to be like, Hey, don't kill Princess Oke. But he is not willing to say, Hey Princess Oke, have you thought that maybe they need a place to live too? You know? So like the movie has the principle that you guys are talking about of like, it's over expanding, it's going too far, nature's gonna fight back. All that kind of stuff. It's definitely there. It's very heavy handed. It's very clear. Yeah. It's just him as a character. I don't see any like principles or values. He's just a guy who got a power and kind of got swept up into this and. Didn't want to pick a side. That's fair. So, alright. Josh, what'd you pick for me? Okay, so for Conlan, um, he's a very big fan of solo leveling. I am, he's a very big fan of Dungeon Crawler Carl, he's a very big fan of Primal Hunter. Primal Hunter. That's the one I was trying to think of these shows where these characters are trying to just push and push and push themselves and get more and more powerful and all these things. And solo leveling does that better than like most shows and most tv like even including non anime, um, it does it better than any superhero thing I would say. Like, that's pretty much the entire plot I just gave you. The entire plot sold, luckily. Yeah. Um. And in searching for something similar. I know this isn't to that level. I hope I made that clear to call that like this is not as good as solo leveling. This is just the next best thing I found. So I picked Eminence and Shadow. It's a high dive exclusive, which is so stupid'cause everything should just be on crunchy roll. It should, um,'cause I think eminence is the thing that's holding high dive up. I don't know if anything else popular that is exclusively on high dive. So just die high dive, crunchy roll, buy up the show. I genuinely really love this show. And it would be a lot bigger if it was on crunchy roll. Yeah.'cause people would be able to access it and watch it. Um, so this is something that was. Came to my attention a long time ago and I realized high dive was$40 a year. So I was like, I'll pay$40 to check out this show. It looks really cool, and maybe I'll see some other stuff. I haven't watched anything else on high Dive, so that was a big giant waste of in investment, but I still really love the show. Conland. What'd you think of at least the first season? So I actually really liked it. Um, I don't think, I think it has problems, but I really like it. Uh, the main character I do think is really good. He, they, they do this thing with a lot of animes and lit RBGs where they have like a harem and all the girls are obsessed with the guy and I don't really like that. And that is in this book, but it's not, it's not horrible. Like there's some where it's like instantly she sees the guy I'm in love with you, master I will be yours forever. And it is. So cringey as hell. This one isn't to that extreme. Basically it's like main character does something super cool. Girl falls in love with him, main character does something super cool. Girl falls in love with him. And then he has his like group of girl assassins that are his, his main, what do you call it? Group, main organization. Main organization that does everything that he, he meets. Um, and he is somebody who wants to be like a side character that's like how he's trying to act. And he does these really, really funny things where he practices side character moves because he is so op and there's one part where he goes to a tournament and, um, he's practiced 43 moves that a side character would do or like gets hit and it wouldn't scratch him at all. But he decides to do a flip and land on his face because he's the side character. And it is absolutely hilarious, like really, really, really good. The, um, the choreography, the fight scenes of the anime is really well done. There are, there are different levels of the fight scenes, like some of them are better than others, but some of them just smack so hard. They're so well done. The world is interesting. I like exploring the world. The side characters have enough personality that you just aren't annoyed by them, which is really good. In a show like this, a lot of times these's harem type shows where there's a bunch of girls who are just in love with a guy. The girls are literally like, their whole personality is, I love main character and this one, a lot of the girls, most of them have more than that. Unfortunately, my favorite side character, the scientist girl, is not really in it for that long. For season one, but she is really interesting. She's more developed. I like her backstory. I like the fact that she connects to the overall plot in an interesting way. If you watch the show, it's, it is an interesting twist. Um, overall I thought it was a good show. My negatives are the girl thing. Um, and the fact that there are some episodes that feel unorganized. So there are literally moments in the show where I was like, what the hell is happening? What? I'm paying attention. I'm not playing something else. I'm literally watching this and I don't know why I'm seeing what I'm seeing, but there's small little segments. There's like half an episode where I'm like, what is it going on? Either 20 minutes long, it's 10 minutes, and then it gets back to a story that I recognize and why I had that 10 minutes. I have no frigging idea. Overall. Good show. Awesome. And what would you rate it on scale one to 10? I would rate this show if you got rid of those parts where I'm like, what is going on? I would probably have given it like just under an eight. With those parts I'd probably have a seven. Okay. Still that I lost it. Good? Yeah. Alright, let's go to our next one. Um, dark for Josh. The reason that I picked Dark is'cause I think it's freaking awesome and I honestly wanted to know what Josh would think. It's a sci-fi cool concept. Cool ideas kind of a show that I think is brilliant. When they, when they first tried to get Netflix to produce for them, they came out with a full three season plan. And they, this show deals with a lot of time, travel, a lot of dates, and they literally aligned the dates that they could with the dates of the release on Netflix, which I think is so cool. They planned out this show meticulously and I think it's brilliant. But Josh is not as big a fan of time travel as I am. I like the concept even when it's done badly and I was interested in his point of view for a show that I, I think is brilliant. What do you think Josh? Uh, well the thing he's not mentioning is it's all in German. Yes. Uh, and the translations are usually pretty bad. They're, they put rough zero effort into making the dialogue Makes sense in English. Um, I just thought the voiceover was bad. You thought the translation was also, they very clearly just put it in Google Translate and said, say this. Hmm. Like, I'm gonna pull out my phone. Excuse me. I even made a note of one. Uh, maybe he didn't run away. Maybe he's trapped. Can't get out. Why would somebody do that? And that was delivered exactly like I just delivered it. I am not like an actor. I just read the line. I, and that's how it was delivered. And that line was stupid. Uh, was very clearly a little bit off. Um, the character who was saying it would not think that way, um, he's basically this kid who's totally innocent, who, you know, all these kids are going mis missing. Mm-hmm. And. You know, everybody's like, he's fine. He's basically here. Right. And he, he thinks he goes straight to what if he's trapped? What if he's kidnapped? And I was just like, you don't have the critical thinking skills to go that far with this. Um, and there were a number of times the translation was genuinely just bad. Like genuinely felt like they just took the German, put it in Google Translate and had the actors read the lines. I was gonna say, is this also where like the, because I feel like when I watched it, what they were saying did not match up with the, I wasn't watching subtitles. Subtitles. It doesn't match up perfectly quite often. Like you get the, it's the same general idea. Yeah, but the words are better. Yeah. Oh, okay. Yeah, because I remember I watched it with subtitles and I remember like reading it and I'm like, that's not what they're saying. Exactly. But yeah, it was the same message. But anyway, sorry. Yeah, I didn't watch the subtitles, so I can't speak to that. Mm-hmm. I was just watching it with the English thing. Colin gave me a heads up. He was like, Hey, it's German. Does the voice, the, does the English voice over the German speaking bother you? Um, to me that generally depends. It didn't bother me in this movie or in the show. What I do have to say is, this is Stranger things for teenagers. Okay. It is like, Hey, we're gonna, we like, stranger Things is really popular, uh, sci-fi based around kids. We just wanna do it a little bit more mature so that like when you're in el you're in middle school, you'll watch Stranger Things and then when you get to high school, you'll watch Dark. I'm not a fan of Stranger Things. I think Stranger Things sucks, uh, other than season one. Um. I think it's genuinely really, really bad. And this one is worse. I absolutely could not stand the show. I was bored out of my mind with the plot. They were jumping around all over the place. I didn't see any kind of structure or meticulous planning. It was more like, we have to get this on screen now. This on screen now, this on screen now this on screen. And I could not stand it. Uh, for me, this is a two out of 10 show that I will never watch again. I'm sorry, Josh. Lauren didn't like it either. I don't get, I like was like brilliant. Was for different reasons though, because I did like the first season of like all of the mystery and like trying to figure it out and like I did like the time, the time travel. Oh wait, yeah, time travel. I had it mixed up with another show for a second. Uh, but yeah, the, the time travel thing, I did not like the love interest. It's weird. I didn't like these gambling everything for that. It was, I did not like that. That was, if they would've taken that out, if they would've just redone the last season and like, I would've felt a lot better about this show. But, so guys, it looks like I want an eyelid because I love this show. I love this show so much. I think I do see all the planning. It does come together. I, I think it's, it's so rare that you see a show that's actually like, this is gonna be our story. We're sticking to this story, we're doing this story, and then we're done. And okay, so how many times has that worked out where they just plan a story and they do it? I mean, they don't, they almost never do it. Yeah. Why? Because how much mother, I'm a fan of the end, but how much mother did that? He is saying it's a pro, but he will say in how much mother's a cop. But here's the thing with how much your mother you have, it went way farther than they were ever planning. So they have more story that gets developed than they were originally planning to happen. So I think you can adjust the ending. Like if they would've been like, you know what? We're having these three seasons. We have the, or even five, these five seasons, this is exactly where we wanna go with the story. Boom, boom, boom. But they shortened how much mother, they didn't extend it. What are you talking about? They shortened it from 10 seasons. They didn't have that originally planned. They were, no, they they did not. They thought they wouldn't even get more than one season. They didn't think they would get more than one season. But their ideal plan was always 10 seasons. I don't know how much they had that planned out. I will look forward into it.'cause I don't know if I moved that. Anyway, me a telling you a truth. I think this show is really, really well done, but I don't know how many other shows really got a full planned out. This is exactly where we wanna go with the story. I tons of anime. I gonna say avatars of Anime. Avatars great. A great one. Although Avatar was shortened, it was supposed to be Four Seasons. That makes sense. Actually, it would've been four with Four Seasons. I got Lucky Dunno. But anyway, anyway, I think it worked out for this one, but obviously these guys can completely disagree with me. I think that if you like Stranger Things, I think it's the natural next step. It's where I don't like Stranger Things, but I really like this show. Uh, it's completely jumbled, jargon, scenes all over the place to not connect with me. I, it's literally bored, like I feel. Uh, spoiler alert. Um, if it wasn't his fricking aunt, like whatever, I would've been fine. But since it was his fricking aunt is the aunt. There's also the girl that sleeps with her. It's like boyfriend's dad. Yeah. Yeah. It's like when you get it all messy like that, I was like, Nope. No. It gets very, very, very messy. But I, I didn't have a problem with the time travel. I like time travel stuff. I just don't like when they give you an explanation for time travel and then backtrack on it end game or give you a overly complicated thing to follow that they just, through the nature of storytelling, absolutely betray like tomorrow. Land is excellent. It makes complete sense. There are two refs on a river going down at the same time. You cannot speed up or slow down the routes. That's all they say. Perfect. I understand how that time travel works back to the future. I understand how that time travel works. Most shows where they do time travel, they either overexplain and it's crap or give you an explanation and then betray that explanation. And that's why I generally don't like it is'cause just don't give an explanation. You would, you would like that better and it would be better. Yeah. Wow. If they were just like, we have time travel, we're doing it. Yep. And they can sit there and they can hypothesize and the characters would go like, what if there's an alternate timeline and then somebody argues back that's like, that would create a paradox. So that's probably not gonna happen great. But like having like a science guy be like, this is how it works. So this is so off topic, but you've seen some doctor who do like their, their explanation for time travel. Their explanation for is it's kind of magical and he's the kind really do it wibbly, bubbly, tiny wimy and like set. Yeah. I love that. It's great. Okay. Okay. Dr. Who's a great example of just doing time travel and not explaining it because it's not really that important to your plot. Other than that it's happening. So Lauren threatened me to make me watch all of Dr. Who do this. I've tried Dr. Who I don't know, like four, seven times and I just don't, I don't get it. I don't, did you start with, where did you start? So I started season one multiple different times. Okay. And they were like, you should, you should skip ahead to season two. So I did that. It was like, you should skip ahead to I think it season five. Yeah. With Matt. Yeah. I think five. Um, and then I tried that and I was like, I don't this should I, I like all this nerdy giggy stuff and this thing is huge. And I don't get it. It's funny because I feel like Dr. Who, it's either like a lot of people like try to watch it and then like someday you find like your favorite episode and it clicks and then all of a sudden you're watching all of it. Maybe it's the hard thing with Dr. Who is, there's a ton of filler and the main plot is really a subplot that overworks the episodes. It's really about his relationship with his companion, which is a subplot to every episode, but is the only plot that carries over multiple episodes other than the few specials where they do for multiple. Yeah. I feel like that's true for David Tenet. And then there's for, you haven't seen much of Matt Smith, have you? I've seen a lot of Matt Smith. Okay.'cause I feel like there is more of an overarching with Matt Smith's versus like with David Tenets. I feel like it's just the nature of Dr. Who like, yeah, they do better, but that's still just like, because like there's like the crack that they deal with, like mess. Yeah. I guess that's what, yeah, it's more of a subplot. Yeah. It's more of you. Right. We're still going all these different timelines and doing this kind of thing, but this other thing's kind of like going on. So it's better than the David tenant, but I still think they have tenant's, just a better doctor. So yeah. How much do you like Dr. Hill? Um, I, when I was in high school, I really liked it. Um, but I also thought that I was very niche for it because I was in a small little tiny town and I was the only person who watched it and so it was kind of my, my own little thing. And then I've seen how much other people love it and I am not other people. Okay. Not in that one. No. But you wouldn't put a phone booth right here? No, I do. Like, I think it's fun and cool. What people do who do love it. Uh, and like, I like when I see it, I'm like, ha, I know what that is. But like, no, I don't think I would paint my door to look like the TT or anything. Um, but I mean, I might get like a little notebook, but that's about Okay. As much fan girly I'll get. Do you have a favorite talk? Uh, of course David 10. Okay. Um, he's the best talker. He just is. Anybody who says it's not David TenneT are really talking about other things in the show. Yeah. Okay. I agree with everything Lauren just said. I think it's a fantastic background show because not all the shows are episodes are that great. I actually think the first episode of the reboot is one of the worst episodes in the entire thing with all the mannequins and stuff, but like, there are some really good episodes in it. I actually really like all the Christmas special stuff. Mm-hmm. Especially with Matt. Um, but like. If you really want to break it down, David Tenet just is the best doctor. Why? Matt Smith just generally has the best companions. Matt Smith generally has structured plot a little bit better. Why is Tenet the best? I can't explain it. He just is. Yeah. Yeah. And like he's a fantastic actor and like, I mean, he really sells it. Yeah, I was gonna say,'cause you have the Dox, which have like a fricking whisk and a plunger and he makes them terrifying. Um, like yeah, you believe everything. And like David Tenet also is such a huge nerd for, um, he, he loved Dr. Who and was such a big fan and it translates to just. Yeah, he's amazing. Easily. He just makes every second count on screen. Yeah. And then the show, that can be that silly, it's, it speaks volumes. Like I, I, I think Matt Smith is the second best doctor. I think when you get to second best, there are some arguments for some other ones other than some people somehow want, like the first reboot doctor I think sucks and then canning him was the right choice. Alright, with that Josh, let's go for your topic for Lauren. Okay. So for Lauren, I picked Blackbird because I love that show. I was just writing off that show. Lauren said she wanted something positive and I was scrolling through and I was like, I can't find anything, but I really wanna talk more about this show. So I picked that show. And then she wanted to watch something happier, and Blackbird is not really happy at all. So she asked me to pick something different. So I was scrolling through once again and I came across this movie, um, that I hadn't seen in such a long time. It's like this unknown thing. I've never met another person on Planet Earth other than my family who's even heard of this movie, even though it's got a completely stacked cast. And that is valiant. And it's the story of the pigeons of the allies in World War II versus the hawks of the axis in World War ii. Very interestingly, like the pigeons talk and the hawks talk, and there's a hawk that's very clearly supposed to be like Hitler, and there's very clearly supposed to be, uh, again, it's weird. It's like. Lauren will get into it. I could give a couple of 2 cents into it, but it was more positive and I remembered really liking it. Again, I hadn't seen it for a really time. One time I did rewatch it to talk about it, but that was after I had Lauren watch it. So Lauren, what'd you think of Valiant? Uh, it was way better than Blackbird. It was funny because, uh, he asked me this a little bit ago and I was like, they have human eyelids, and he's like, their pigeons, he's like, but their eyelids are freaking me out in this animation. But, uh, to go along with like, the story, it was really funny. I remember there's this one part where like they captured this one pigeon, uh, and like the bars are wider than the birds. They're caging them in. And so it's just so funny. Um, but they get down to like, uh. Mentioning a stack cast. You have, uh, Ian McGregor is like the littlest pigeon, which is so funny to me because I'm just hearing obiwan speaking with this pigeon because like it isn't a different voice, it's just even McGregor. Um, and so you have like him and his ragtag of buddies who want to be, uh, these heroes and they go, uh, to go be, they have like this whole thing of like these buff pigeons or like just bigger pigeons. Like bigger pigeons. And they're like, I'm gonna go like, serve my country. You know, like how they had like the World War ii, like, um, everybody should sign up and join for the war. And so then you have this tiny little pigeon and like this studious pigeon and like. All these weird, uh, his weird friends and stuff go and try to become these carrier pigeons because they're all getting taken out by the hawks. So we finally are down to their little group and they're like, okay, you guys are our last hopes. And they're like, yes, we can be lucky heroes. And uh, there was like one that, it was just so funny. He has this whole thing of like, he's like, I'm leaving. I can't go into the war. Like I'm deserting. And uh, like the very next thing he's back and he is like, just kidding, I'm gonna help you guys. Um, and then, oh yeah, he, the little pigeon was always getting hurt. So he was going to the nurse. And so of course there was like this little romance with the nurse pigeon. Not a pigeon. A dove. A dove. Yeah, that's right. Course a dove. Yeah. So the dove nurse and then, um, anyway, so they end up going to try to. Uh, send this message, which I thought it was funny. They get in the plane and then they drop'em down in parachutes and I'm like, your burger, the one, the one pigeon's little package or whatever gets stuck in the airplane and they think that he dies when it comes to the airplane. And I'm like, this whole time this could just go fly free. Yeah. It just explodes. And then he is like, oh no, I was able to get out and able to use my parachute. And I'm like, once again you asked me. So, uh, but yeah, they had like, um. Then they go in and they save the, the one pigeon, uh, that was in the cage that he could obviously escape from anytime he wanted. Uh, uh, like of course you have the Ian McGregor person gets his, he like swallows the Oh my gosh. The message. The message. Yeah. And like at the end, like finally makes it to the allies and he like, throws it up and they're like, ah. It's like a lot of grossness for an animation that they put on this. Thing. But then they finally got the letter and he, uh, his little rag tech group got, uh, celebrated and stuff. And of course the dove found him at the end. Oh, it was really funny.'cause I remember thinking, I was like, oh, now all the little birds are gonna go after him. And he's like, sorry, but I'm taking, and girls are dove. And I was like, ah, of course I thought that was gonna happen. Um, but yeah, I, I enjoyed it. Uh, it was kind of what I was asking more of on the more uplifting part. And then, oh, you had. Was it Tim Curry was the, the Hitler Bird? Yeah. Yeah. Really? Yeah. Like the cast is genuinely like, it's way too good for this. Yeah. For that you've never seen. And it like, the animation is like the first toy story. Okay. So it's 3D, um, where it's like you have the model and then, but you don't really have details on the model. So they, that's why I, like, the eyelids looked weird to me. I just re recently watched to story again. Yeah. And it looks terrible. Yeah. Yeah. So it's, it's it's, it shows its age for the 3D. Um, but honestly, like the fluidity of like the animation was fine. Um, but yeah, it, it was the early stages of 3D. Um, but yeah, I can't remember the other. There's like so many, I was like looking at the cast and it's like literally every single one was a well-known actor that, so now I can't remember any of the other ones, but Ann McGregor and Tim Curry. So what's the rating? Be honest, this doesn't sound like good to me. I, I was just happy to have something that wasn't, um, wrecking me emotionally. So, um, would I watch it again? Maybe, but it's not high up there. I would say it's like a seven. Okay. Okay. So still, so I'm gonna play a little bit of devil's advocate. Just for the fun of it. Uh, I did end up rewatching this movie. The eyelids didn't bother me at all. Like they look like pigeons and honestly, they're the best looking part of this show. Which the No, the birds, the eyelids is like, in my mind it looked as good as Toy story one. Yeah. I, I remember thinking like it looked good on rewatch. It's like they're flying over some grassland and it's like they literally did Windows xp. Like click that area's green, click that area's blue. That's all I did with like some of the background. So, uh, did not live up to my expectations of how it looked. Uh, I haven't seen Toy Story one in quite a while, but, uh, pretty sure it's quite a bit worse than Toy Story backgrounds. Yes. Yeah, the pigeons, I think they actually put the work in. They do look really good. Um. As for them jumping in the cages out of the plane. My argument to that, which is not valid, I fully acknowledge that this is not valid because the plane isn't flying that high, but like birds are limited by altitude. They can't just fly up forever. They often fly pretty low actually to the ground. Um, but the problem is the plane is like getting shot by artillery and not that high off the ground to begin with. So like maybe a little bit of an argument there, but like they might need the cage for like five seconds and to your point, like when the plane is going down, he's definitely hitting the lower altitude and can just fly outta there. So that's, that's fair. Um, it's not supposed to be that serious. And I actually think that that's the weirdest part of it because you get to the end and the end is like. There's this special medal that's only given to animals, and six went to dogs and eight went to horses, and 30 went to pigeons, and there's only 52 ever having been given out or whatever. And I was like, that was not the message I was getting from this movie at all. Like hawks were not hunting pigeons and holding them captive and, and torturing them and giving them truth serum. Oh yeah. And he starts singing and being goofy. And I was like, that was just a weird twist at the end. Yeah. That I, I understand that like you're doing this World War II thing, but was was weird. Yeah. I still really liked it though. It is just kind of like a fun, silly childhood memory for me. So I'm very swayed. Um, I acknowledge that quality's not the best, but like I would give it like an easy 7.5. Because like, I'm not easily going to be rewatching this all the time, but you would. But like if it was in a lineup against Black Panther, like I would go to Valiant so fast, like very clearly this is my choice. Um, and like I also think it's really underrated because like I said, I haven't met anybody that's ever watched that or heard of it. And like it's a fun, family friendly little show and it's not super long and the dialogue is pretty good and mm-hmm. Like it has that romance, but it's not forced or weird in any way. It's kind of just like there and it's solid and yeah, it felt like if you've ever seen, um. Basically any World War II movie that has to deal with like, like Fly Boys or what's the one with, I can't think of what his name is now. Uh, but it's like the two brothers and they both like the same girl and they both fly planes. Uh, pro Oh yeah, yeah. It's Pearl Harbor. Um, I, I feel like it has like those tones with like, it hit all of the beats for like a World War II movie and it was, yeah, I think it's kind of. Yeah, a family movie because then you have like, like my dad who's like a history buff or whatever. You have like those little tie tie-ins. But like, it wasn't, um, like you said, it's not like true to, it's not historically accurate. It not even remotely. And like me as a history buff, honestly, my biggest problem with the history is they showed an allied tank and it was like a kindergartner drew it and it kind of like drives across the background and goes, that's not a tank. Um, I don't, I still like it. It's a good fun watch. Yeah. Yeah. So I was very happy I watched it. Good, good, good. I'm glad you liked it. All right. Now went hard. We come to Austin land. I picked Austin land for Conland because. And I told him he needed to watch it with his wife because you guys mentioned how you didn't like Jane Austen, right? Yeah. You didn't get it. And I was like, this was probably the only Austin thing that I could think of that you would actually enjoy. Uh, so did you, okay. So I specifically started this podcast in the way where I said I picked something that would make her cry on purpose because I don't believe Lauren, I think she was breaking me because I watched the first half of this movie and I literally, I've got a friend, um, he doesn't like romance movies, none of them. He likes this movie. I texted him, I'm like, how did a shit, do you like this movie? I genuinely, truly thought I was getting prank because I was like, this is awful. Not bad. Awful. Okay. Time out. I want to point out Lin's note on the documented. Yes, yes. I'm watching this today. Good choice, Lauren. I'm so excited. I was, I legitimately was like, okay, let's go. I've heard great things. Um, one of my employees, this is her favorite movie of all time. Hmm. And I was like, how so, uh, what, what's her name? Usually I have the, the actor is listed from me, the big blonde girl who plays the exact same character thing. Oh. Um. She's legally belong. Jennifer Coolidge. Yes. Jennifer Coolidge in Legally Belong works for me. She's the exact same character in absolutely everything, and she doesn't work for me anywhere else. And in this house was like, shut up. Holy crap. Your accent is atrocious. I want to die. It's supposed to be. I know, but I hate, oh, I hated it. And I'm in this place and I'm like, I literally, this is like watching living in hell. I am literally like watching living in Hell. And I felt like I was being tortured. Well, I watched the first half of the, I, I hated the first half of this movie. Um, and so I'm like, I, I know that you're all better actress. The main actress is really, really good. And she's not great at the beginning of this movie. Um, and then. You, you're, you gave, you gave me weird movies to watch because you, I better off dead then. I'm like, half the part of this movie sucks. The part of this movie are brilliant. And then you get to the theater scene, the theater scene, all of a suddenly this movie changes. And I like it. Like I literally was like, I'm finishing this because I said I would, otherwise I would turn this off and I would burn it and it would go on one of my least favorite movie. Like I put it in my, it would go maybe in my top 20 least favorite. Like I hate it the first half of this movie. Um, and then that scene happens and Jennifer Coolidge is like my big ass. And I literally laughed out loud and I was like, I am ashamed of myself because that shouldn't have been funny. But it was funny. And, um, they're screwing up this stage production, this horrible, awful stage production. And I'm laughing the entire time. I'm like, what is going on? I literally sat back in my seat and I'm like, I, my wife, my wife left. She didn't really like it either. She stopped watching it. Oh. And I was like, I just said it was horrible. I thought, I was like, it's okay if you go, I have to watch it. It's fine. I know I'm having a good time. And then the romance becomes more fulfilling. It's like everyone turned on their acting and figured out how to act and I don't get it. Um, and I really like, like it's an obvious twist.'cause the whole idea, you're kind of weirdly watching a show about like. A woman's version of a strip club.'cause the guy goes to a strip club to be like all hot women and they're going to this place to be like, oh, hot men. And then apparently make out with them. You're basically watching like a woman's version of a strip club. That's why I think this movie is. Um, and so I am watching this woman's version of a strip club and then all of a suddenly I'm like buying into the romance. And you have this idea of like escaping to a fantasy land and that you shouldn't escape to a fantasy land. You should want something real in your life. And I was like, that is a really great idea. Where the crap did that come from and this terrible movie, how is this good? Um, so they're, they're having this romance and she's having this, this dream that she's had her entire life to be able to go and be in an a Jane Austen type of novel live that become, do the elevated phrasing, speak a certain way, live that kind of life. And she's getting caught up in that. And she has this moment where she's. Realizing that all these other women that are with her aren't realizing that it's fake. They're too drawn in. And I'm like, this is cool. I like this. I like this a lot. Um, because people do that, that is a very common thing. That is not something I see in a lot of shows that is done particularly well. And I think it's done very well in this. Um, they have these two women that are just drawn into this alternate world. Um, and she gets drawn into the alternate world. And I get drawn into the alternate world because I genuinely believe horse stable Boy is actually a good dude. I like bought that. It, it got me hooked light and tinker. And when it found out that he's just the actor, I was like, that was great. Mm-hmm. Legitimately super well done. Um. And the, there's always the, in the romcom movies, the guy comes after some horrible event and he tells like why he should be with her. Like he has that, I love you. You're special to me. I care about you. Let's give this a trial. It's, it's worth it. And those lines are written. It's, it's a super common trope. The actor who does the Darcy role is incredible in those lines. Like I, he had, I was like, I, I always call it cuticles When something is ever, I actually find cute because I don't usually, I was like, this is freaking adorable. Um, and it is very, very well written. It makes you wanna root for this couple. You don't even spend that much time with them, to be completely honest. Like by the end of the movie, I'm wanting to see more of this couple, which is mind boggling to me. Um, and it is very cute and you like want them to succeed and it's very. It feels authentic and it feels real and I don't understand it. Um, I'm talking with a lot of passion about how good I think the end of this movie is. I think the first half of this movie, I, I cannot explain enough how much I hate it, the first half of this movie, but the second half of this movie is brilliant, and I don't know what to give a rating this,'cause I never, ever, ever wanna see the first half of this movie ever again as long as I live. I was just about to ask if you would rewatch it and see if he's hated the first half. If I do it the full movie, I, I have to give it like a four because I just have to watch through that first hellish thing. But the second half is legitimately like an eight or an 8.5. I I think it's great. I like this is, it's funny because you mentioned that your coworker is like one per favorite movies. I'm like, this makes my top 10. So I, I, I think this, I love Jennifer Coolidge in this. She, I think she's so freaking funny. I think I, I can see that. And that's literally when I was talking to my, with my Chloe about this, I was like, if Jennifer Coolidge works for you, I can see this movie being more enjoyable. Like, I, I can understand that if she doesn't work for you, like she didn't work for me until the theater scene for some reason, um, then not gonna work for you. I'm like, you're probably the first person that I know that has had like such a, like, strong opinion about the first half and not liking it. Because like, usually it's funny'cause I remember when I watched it, I watched it with like a whole bunch of people in a cabin and I was, and people were like, oh yeah, this was a great movie. I remember watching it and being. Okay. I'm not understanding it. Maybe I need to know Jane Austin. Um, and then, but like, as soon as it got to, um, I think, like what clicked for me was when they had to like, bring in, I'm trying to remember the beats of the story. I think it was when the, she like got her phone and they were like, gonna like send her away. And then, uh, they were like, oh, actually the one girl claims it. But it was like Darcy who told her to go get that phone. And like, when I started realizing what the real romance was, because I was like, I thought that the state plan was the real romance too. And then just for the record, I didn't, I called it from a mile away. I, I was like, that's lame. I was like, I don't really think she should. That's kind of a lame, but then when they flipped it, I was like, oh, thank goodness. Yes. But, uh, and then when she like left, um, Darcy at like,'cause at the end of this whole thing they, everybody ends up getting engaged to the actor or whatever. And uh, when Darcy was like, actually I need to tell you something. She's like, oh, I didn't know this is how I feel at this bit. I want something real. And then she goes to the person who actually was acting to like her. I was like that no, no, she better not. Like I thought that that was gonna be the ending when she went back with him. And I was like, no. Uh, but yeah, I really like when he also like shows up to her house and he is like, she's like, no, this like, this is like my dream. That's not what's supposed to happen. He's like, wait, no. And he like flips it and he is like, have yours that like, maybe you are my dream. And so like, great. Yeah. It's so funny'cause like, fantastic. Uh, whenever me and LA watch it, we always squeal at that part, but it's fine. Um, it is, yeah. I love this movie. I watch it probably once a year. So, and the thing is, like some of those lines at the end, if you weren't such a good actor, they could come off cheesy. Oh yeah, yeah. Like super cheesy, but they work really, really, like surprisingly well. Yeah. They deliver it very well. Um, and uh, the other thing I didn't love about the end, but I kinda just forgave it, is I don't feel like Austin land is ran very well, but all of a sudden you had this incredible genius plan that got me. And I'm like, that required a ridiculous amount of extremely well planning. So this is like, did you put your whole planning budget into just this? Because the rest of this is not, not, not very well run. Um, but I, I kind of just, I kind of just forgave that, um. Yeah, I, I, I don't know, you've had two movies where I'm like, I have no idea what rating to give this movie. I just, I just like to confuse you, I guess. I guess so why, why do you like this movie so much? Um, I, I think that the humor hits for me and I do really like the love interest of, um, Darcy.'cause it's like, it's funny because like it's making fun of Jane Austen, but then also nailing Jane Austen, like, because his character is Darcy. Like, that's what his character is. Um, and so it ends up being like the pride and prejudice, but it's really a fun twist where they're kind of like making fun of it, but at the same time, they're still doing the storyline of Jane Austen. Um, yeah, I think. Yeah.'cause I like Jennifer Coolidge, she works for me. Uh, that also had, oh, I'm trying to think of what the, she's, she plays a prairie doctor. Oh, what's her name? We were literally just talking about this show, Dr. Quinn, the Yeah. Medicine Woman. Yeah. Yeah. So she's the person who's running, uh, Austin Land. Uh, it has a pretty good cast. And yeah, I, I think the jokes hit me like when they're like explaining it to her and they're like, this is, this is Princess Sparkles. He likes to do, uh, walks on the beach, whatever. Like, I don't know, I just. Everything hit for me. I do not understand why you hate the beginning. I'm right there with you. I don't understand hating the beginning either. It's not even that long of a movie to have like two distinct parts. It built like in eternity because I'm like trying to think of if it was slow or to be okay. To be fair, like in Colin's defense, if he doesn't like Jennifer Coolidge, like she's what carries the first half. Right? I, I think what makes this movie so great is the fact that it makes fun of Jane Austen while telling G and Austen in a really honorable, honest way. But like the first half is like, okay, I'm getting like, can we move this along? And then they give Jennifer Coolidge and she gives a great one liner that carries you through to the next little bit. Like, yeah, you're, you are criticizing that like they felt like really bad actors. And then. Became good actors, but like that's part of the plot of the movie is right. They were trying to put on masks and pretend to be things and then becoming themselves and realizing that's not the way to live life. Right. It's got a great message about living in this fantasy or thinking, you know, the grass is greener on the other side. The comedy's really great. It's not my favorite Jennifer Coolidge thing because there's always a Cinderella story and that's just the best I know, but like is this my favorite movie of all time? Is it top 10? No. Do I understand why it would be for Lauren? Yeah.'cause like it goes from a really solid comedy and right when that comedy is starting to like dry out and you're like, okay, can we move on? It becomes this like genuinely really great, honest love romance movie. Um. Like, what else does that? Nothing like This hits my kind of beat, my favorite movie of all time is The Princess Bride. What does it do? It makes fun of the fantasy and it makes fun of romance. And while still telling the romance, what do I think is a really underrated movie? Enchanted it. Just the same thing. Like, yeah, this is a really great movie and is it my personal favorite? No, but like, am I genuinely really happy I watched this movie? Yes. Would I rather watch Black Panther or Austin Lynn? Not even close. Yeah, you're on an island. I'm on an island. Like I said, I have this friend who literally doesn't like romance movies and he likes this movie. I don't know, I. I, I, oh, I struggle. I like it. The dinner scene I think is freaking hilarious. I, uh, when I say that I want to walk my dog, I say, go for a turnabout in the garden, because he doesn't like put all of those words together to realize that I wanna take him for a WAL key. So, yeah, I, I, I've, I just am I glad I wa I don't know.'cause I do, I think the end is really good. Did your wife watch the end? No, I'm actually gonna make her watch the end. You're like, especially towards the first She like left and then like five minutes passed and then all of a sudden Good. Because Yeah. I, I thought because she likes Jane Austen, right? Like she likes Yeah. Prime prejudice. Yeah. So that's why I thought she would like it, but yeah. That's weird. Yeah. I think this is the best version of pr. Prejudice. What about pr, prejudice and zombies? I haven't seen it. Oh. That's the only one I haven't seen. But I have seen every other version of that excruciatingly horrible torture. I do. I think I have that movie actually. Which one?'cause there's the Pride, pride, prejudices and Zombies. Oh, they're a bunch of different PI haven't seen any of the other pride and prejudices. I've only seen That is very surprisingly how much you like this show. I'm shocked at that. I, yeah. I wasn't ever really into Jane Austen. I think the only other thing that I've watched that is kind of like in that realm is, uh, north and South. Okay. I like that one. It's very slow though. Very slow. That's a good one. Starstruck. Okay. That's all I was wondering. Your favorite one. Stardust Stardust. Oh yeah. I was like, that's one of my favorites. Yeah, Stardust is great. Oh, Stardust. Legitimately fantastic. Okay. You've seen it? Yeah, I've seen it. Okay. I think it's so good. I actually, I don't know that it would make like my top 10 anymore, but it is definitely up there. Okay. Yeah. I'm surprised that you don't like that one more because it, it's pride and prejudice. It feels very, uh, pride and prejudice. I agree. No, it, it's, it's always felt very your favorite movie. You literally just talking about Princess Brett Princess. Nope, not at all. I've always felt it. I, it is just a private prejudice story with some really stupid stuff. If that's pride, prejudice, that's my favorite Pride of prejudice or some we song. I dunno. I like all of those. Uh, okay. I was gonna say, I think I also have that book, but I didn't like the book as much as I liked the movie, which is funny. Okay. Apparently there's a book of this too. Awesome, man. Oh, and when I was reading reviews, the reviewers all liked the movie Better than the book than, and I was like, huh, I'm not going to read the book. You'll be the one that's like, I love the book. The book's way better than the movie. The book, first half of the book didn't even have Jennifer Cohan. You like the first half of the book. I loved the ending of the book. Sucked. Sucked. Anyway, guys, that's gonna be our episode. Thank you for watching. If you like Austin land, please tell me why. Like, tell me why I'm wrong. I would love to hear that. Please do. I want as many comments telling Conlin he's wrong. Yeah. Like I, I'm not even mad that you, you didn't like it. I'm mad that you said it was worse than Black Panther. Yeah. First half. Yeah, definitely, definitely def, definitely. No way. It was, that's insane. For sure. I when, I mean, I, why Panther doesn't even have Jennifer, Jennifer. I really wanna do an AI and make her say that. That's so funny. Yes. For for sure. Literally like, I mean it when I was like, she pulled a prank on me and she wanted to torture me. That's literally what my brain thought. If we were to written notes, I would have written that note. Just make the argument, make Conley, give it a 5.5. That's all I'm asking for 5.9. He's never been so passionate about a romance before, ever. I am pretty passionate about a couple romance, about how much you hate the notebook. You've never been so passionately in favor of a romance before. My favorite one, which for some reason I'm not thinking of right now. I've talked pretty passionate about that. I have never heard you put off this passionately except about how much you hate the notebook or like Star Wars or like the Hobbit. Like, okay. I just had more passion of hate. I guess I had work on that. Guys. What do you hate? I wanna know. Let's viewers, let's have Conlin, you guys get to pick Lin's topics for next week. Whatever comments we get. Um, use Austin land as your guide and things that you want him to watch. Like I would want him to watch the four and a half hour BB, C version of Pride, prejudice, and then tell me how bad Austin land is. I. Well, I take on that challenge. I really, you know what? I will take on that challenge. I'm not gonna watch it in one week. I probably will break it up. Gonna be honest, but I'll take on the challenge. I'll watch it. Okay. Alright. If you, if you've watched your rely on April and you finished it, tell us what you think. If you haven't finished it, then finish it.'cause you shouldn't be like Lauren, she's a bad example.
