Run For Your Lives Podcast Episode 184: A Quiet Place: Day One

[00:00:31] [SPEAKER_00]: Hey everyone, welcome to the show. I'm Daphne. And I'm Pake. And this is the Run For Your

[00:00:38] [SPEAKER_01]: Lives Podcast. This episode we will be talking about the apocalyptic horror film A Quiet

[00:00:45] [SPEAKER_01]: Place, Day One, directed by Michael Sarnosky and released June 28th, 2024. That's right. The newest

[00:00:54] [SPEAKER_01]: installment of the Quiet Place franchise, although it is kind of a prequel. I mean, it is a prequel

[00:01:00] [SPEAKER_01]: to the story we really follow in the other two. I think A Quiet Place 2 did have some like

[00:01:07] [SPEAKER_01]: day one, like prequel like scenes or shots, but with where the Abbots were in their kind of

[00:01:15] [SPEAKER_01]: here we're seeing New York City, whole different setting, different people, different vibes.

[00:01:22] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, the cool thing is John Krasinski when he was doing A Quiet Place 2 and doing those early

[00:01:28] [SPEAKER_00]: scenes showing what happened, where the family lived, where the Abbots were. That gave him the

[00:01:35] [SPEAKER_00]: idea of doing this bigger prequel for the franchise, although he didn't direct it or

[00:01:42] [SPEAKER_00]: write it. He did have influence in it because he was on set. Yeah, he was definitely connected to

[00:01:49] [SPEAKER_00]: it, which is amazing because I love his point of view. And if he injected any of that into this,

[00:01:58] [SPEAKER_00]: I think it was pretty evident actually, you know, he did have a little handle on a few

[00:02:03] [SPEAKER_00]: things, I think. Yeah, it's cool. Also the director, he did this film with Nicolas Cage called Pig.

[00:02:15] [SPEAKER_00]: And as soon as Krasinski saw that movie, he really, really wanted to have

[00:02:20] [SPEAKER_00]: Sarnowski do this one because he appreciated what he did in that film. And I haven't seen Pig,

[00:02:28] [SPEAKER_00]: so I don't know. Yeah, yeah. So I'm interested in, you know, what your thoughts are on this one,

[00:02:37] [SPEAKER_00]: because it just came out like, gosh, when we're recording this, it's like six weeks ago that it

[00:02:47] [SPEAKER_00]: came out. I remember being super excited and then all of a sudden it was time for it to be

[00:02:51] [SPEAKER_00]: out. So cool. Getting back to those crazy creatures and the lack of sound because it's

[00:03:03] [SPEAKER_00]: exciting to watch a story that unfolds without as much sound, because when you do get sound,

[00:03:10] [SPEAKER_00]: it's more impactful. There were different times in this movie that I was just like, oh,

[00:03:22] [SPEAKER_01]: so, you know, we've still got production notes and synopsis and stuff we'll get to. But before

[00:03:26] [SPEAKER_01]: we get to all of the really great things that I love about this movie, and there's a lot of

[00:03:30] [SPEAKER_01]: fun stuff that I want to talk about, I'm going to get the negativity out of the way first. I

[00:03:34] [SPEAKER_01]: feel like that's a good way to do it. So I give the bad side first, and then we'll go

[00:03:41] [SPEAKER_01]: into everything and talk about all the really fun stuff. But where I sit overall, this movie

[00:03:47] [SPEAKER_01]: is good. It's fine. It is not bad in any way. However, it's not as good as the first two

[00:03:55] [SPEAKER_01]: Quiet Place movies to me, I don't think. And even with like the new characters and the urban

[00:04:02] [SPEAKER_01]: setting, I was trying to put my finger on what is it that's just not clicking about this movie.

[00:04:09] [SPEAKER_01]: And I think it's just it doesn't give us anything new. Plot wise, like, it's a point A to point B

[00:04:16] [SPEAKER_01]: survival story. But there's no new revelations or understandings of these creatures. There is

[00:04:23] [SPEAKER_01]: a unique character element to this. I will say that Sarnowski definitely I'm assuming probably

[00:04:30] [SPEAKER_01]: what Krasinski picked up on was his ability to write really subtle and great character

[00:04:36] [SPEAKER_01]: connection moments. Again, I haven't seen Pig, so I'm not sure. But like, if I'm going to pinpoint

[00:04:41] [SPEAKER_01]: something that this movie excelled at, I think that's definitely it. So there is this unique

[00:04:48] [SPEAKER_01]: character element as far as taking something so generic as I want pizza and making that the

[00:04:55] [SPEAKER_01]: through line for the whole movie and making it make sense and actually we care about it.

[00:05:00] [SPEAKER_01]: That's good writing. That's really good. So I'm not going to like hold that against

[00:05:03] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm not going to say it's a bad movie because it's not. But like, I don't know, it's just still

[00:05:07] [SPEAKER_01]: not as special as it could have been. I don't know, because it is a great idea plot wise,

[00:05:12] [SPEAKER_01]: like this idea of holding on and memories and sacrifices. All that is really great.

[00:05:17] [SPEAKER_01]: But I don't know, it just there was something that felt lacking and I couldn't really put

[00:05:21] [SPEAKER_01]: my finger on it. And then I was like, are we just missing some kind of magical Krasinski

[00:05:24] [SPEAKER_01]: touch? Since he really maybe wasn't like I don't know, it's like what we're used to is

[00:05:30] [SPEAKER_01]: just hard for us to shift from the Abbots that we're so endeared to?

[00:05:34] [SPEAKER_01]: And you start like, I don't know. Yeah. But then I'm thinking back to one that I really

[00:05:39] [SPEAKER_01]: thought of that we did cover was Bird Box Barcelona. Yeah, where I felt like they

[00:05:44] [SPEAKER_01]: actually managed to pull off this same world different setting and characters concept better,

[00:05:49] [SPEAKER_01]: because they had new unique ideas to the world they were in, that could really expand

[00:05:55] [SPEAKER_01]: open up the way you thought about this universe that had been built. And this movie didn't really

[00:06:01] [SPEAKER_01]: do that. That all said, this is probably the only negativity that I have on the movie,

[00:06:07] [SPEAKER_01]: because overall it was very enjoyable. I really enjoyed it. I will watch it again,

[00:06:12] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm sure it's probably at some point like a trilogy kind of thing.

[00:06:17] [SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, I just I had to admit like off the top before we really get into the good

[00:06:21] [SPEAKER_01]: stuff, like let's get this out of the way just like, I just don't think it's on the

[00:06:24] [SPEAKER_01]: level of the standard that this franchise had set before it, for whatever reason. I'm not sure.

[00:06:31] [SPEAKER_01]: But hopefully and I think theater sales and I think critics and Rotten Tomatoes,

[00:06:35] [SPEAKER_01]: I think all of that matches up with my opinion. But I still did enjoy this movie a

[00:06:42] [SPEAKER_01]: lot. And I hope that it was worth it. And then the people behind it feel good because

[00:06:48] [SPEAKER_01]: they did accomplish something really good. And then I don't know if this means that they're

[00:06:52] [SPEAKER_01]: going to do any more. I mean, I know there is another Quiet Place sequel coming. I do know that

[00:06:58] [SPEAKER_01]: that's but as far as if they're going to play with any more of this world or try to, you know,

[00:07:03] [SPEAKER_01]: expand the world outside of the Abbots and stuff anymore, if this determines whether they do or

[00:07:08] [SPEAKER_01]: don't do that, I hope it doesn't deter them from doing things because I do enjoy what

[00:07:12] [SPEAKER_00]: Sarnowski brought to this. So yeah, I have to agree with you though about the not learning

[00:07:19] [SPEAKER_00]: something new because we really didn't get that. I mean, it was this, you know, like you said,

[00:07:28] [SPEAKER_00]: a point A to point B survival story, which is fine. But we really didn't learn anything

[00:07:33] [SPEAKER_01]: new about the creatures. Yeah, because I think that's why I loved A Quiet Place part two so

[00:07:39] [SPEAKER_01]: much is because it was a continuation of these characters that we had really kind of

[00:07:42] [SPEAKER_01]: fallen in love with and were endeared to and wanted to see how they were doing.

[00:07:45] [SPEAKER_01]: But then it threw in these wrenches of like, oh, also the creatures do this. And also there's

[00:07:50] [SPEAKER_01]: this element and there's this other human element that you didn't expect coming in.

[00:07:53] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, but also they can do this to fight back. And there was so much world building.

[00:07:58] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. And this didn't really do that. I mean, we got subtle reminders of what the creatures

[00:08:07] [SPEAKER_00]: could and couldn't do. We got the connection with Henry's character because he was also

[00:08:13] [SPEAKER_00]: in A Quiet Place two. We got those subtle connections. But outside of that, I think

[00:08:21] [SPEAKER_00]: standalone it was better as standalone than looking at it as part of that universe.

[00:08:29] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, right. And just as somebody who covered the other two movies as a podcaster and

[00:08:34] [SPEAKER_01]: somebody who literally watched this movie through an analytic mind on purpose so we can do this

[00:08:40] [SPEAKER_01]: conversation. You can't do that. You can't stand alone. So yeah, you can't.

[00:08:46] [SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, I think we're in for a really good discussion. I have a lot of gushing about one

[00:08:53] [SPEAKER_00]: particular thing that I will probably have to edit a lot out of this podcast. But there

[00:09:02] [SPEAKER_00]: are some things, there's a couple of things that I think I'm going to end up gushing about.

[00:09:07] [SPEAKER_01]: Cool. Yeah, and I did enjoy this movie a lot more on second watch at home as well.

[00:09:13] [SPEAKER_01]: Kind of revisiting things and picking up on things I might have missed the first time.

[00:09:18] [SPEAKER_01]: The theater watch was okay. I'll blame a group of annoying ass kids for that one.

[00:09:26] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, you told me about that.

[00:09:29] [SPEAKER_01]: I call them annoying kids. They were in their early 20s. Fuck, I'm officially old

[00:09:33] [SPEAKER_01]: and I'm that person now. But you know what? Here's what it is.

[00:09:36] [SPEAKER_00]: You are two steps from shaking a stick and yelling at kids on your lawn.

[00:09:41] [SPEAKER_00]: I know. That's what's coming next.

[00:09:46] [SPEAKER_01]: Just going to have to embrace it at some point. I don't know.

[00:09:49] [SPEAKER_00]: Well, it doesn't change. It continues to happen. So you'll have to embrace it.

[00:09:56] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. It just all I know is if I ever start like unironically using the term

[00:10:00] [SPEAKER_01]: whippersnappers, just shoot me. It's over for me.

[00:10:06] [SPEAKER_01]: There's no hope at that point. I don't need to go on.

[00:10:10] [SPEAKER_00]: I might pull you aside and talk to you like that guy on the commercials

[00:10:13] [SPEAKER_00]: about the guy about young homeowners or young people turning into their parents.

[00:10:19] [SPEAKER_00]: I will pull you aside or pull you away. There was one instance that we were together that

[00:10:25] [SPEAKER_00]: should have done that and I didn't. I just let you go full bore with it

[00:10:30] [SPEAKER_00]: and maybe I should have done something to stop it, but I didn't.

[00:10:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Anyway.

[00:10:39] [SPEAKER_00]: So, Production Notes was filmed in London, England and a few things were shot in New York

[00:10:45] [SPEAKER_00]: City, particularly Patsy's Pizza. It's a spin-off prequel, which we talked about.

[00:10:52] [SPEAKER_00]: The budget is the third installment in Krasinski's Quiet Place film series.

[00:10:58] [SPEAKER_00]: The budget was $67 million and it grows $258.8 million, which is still really good.

[00:11:06] [SPEAKER_00]: 99 minutes long. Pake. Bring us that synopsis that you found somewhere on the internet.

[00:11:14] [SPEAKER_01]: A young woman named Sam finds herself trapped in New York City during the early stages of an

[00:11:18] [SPEAKER_01]: invasion by alien creatures with ultra sensitive hearing.

[00:11:22] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes.

[00:11:23] [SPEAKER_01]: So vague.

[00:11:27] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. I don't think we question who the main character is in this story.

[00:11:34] [SPEAKER_00]: It is Sam.

[00:11:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Frodo.

[00:11:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Samira. Yes, Frodo! Don't get me started on Frodo. We have not even

[00:11:43] [SPEAKER_00]: talked about Sam and I'm ready to talk about Frodo.

[00:11:45] [SPEAKER_01]: Man, there was two. I have a connection between names in my notes of Sam and Eric,

[00:11:53] [SPEAKER_01]: but I didn't even think about Sam and Frodo.

[00:11:55] [SPEAKER_01]: What's wrong with me?

[00:11:57] [SPEAKER_01]: Come on!

[00:11:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Until we just said it at the same time, the two names. I was like,

[00:12:01] [SPEAKER_01]: oh god, that was on purpose for sure too.

[00:12:07] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. Don't get me started on Frodo because I'm just going to go down a path.

[00:12:11] [SPEAKER_01]: He gets his own character section in the notes.

[00:12:14] [SPEAKER_01]: Yes. Oh my god.

[00:12:15] [SPEAKER_00]: I love that cat. I just want to say I love that cat and I have to say before we even get started,

[00:12:23] [SPEAKER_00]: Lupita Nyong'o was terrified of cats. She went through a process to be comfortable with cats.

[00:12:31] [SPEAKER_00]: It took a while for her to get to that point, but at the end of the day,

[00:12:38] [SPEAKER_00]: when all was said and done, she adopted a cat.

[00:12:43] [SPEAKER_02]: Aw.

[00:12:43] [SPEAKER_00]: She did. His name is Yo-Yo. The cat is an orange tabby and so adorable and is all over her Instagram.

[00:12:53] [SPEAKER_01]: I love that.

[00:12:54] [SPEAKER_00]: It just made me so happy because she was very terrified of them.

[00:13:01] [SPEAKER_00]: She was very suspicious of them, she said, but she really wanted to play this role so bad,

[00:13:06] [SPEAKER_00]: so she faced her fear. They hired someone to bring cats to her in Los Angeles,

[00:13:14] [SPEAKER_00]: and over a number of days, she looked at the cats, she watched the cats, she asked questions,

[00:13:20] [SPEAKER_00]: she touched them when she felt like she was brave enough to,

[00:13:23] [SPEAKER_00]: and then she was petting one, and then finally she could hold one without freaking out.

[00:13:28] [SPEAKER_00]: She became a cat lover.

[00:13:31] [SPEAKER_01]: That's great.

[00:13:32] [SPEAKER_00]: And that just, I mean, how Lupita Nyong'o is a fantastic actress.

[00:13:37] [SPEAKER_00]: There's a million reasons to love her. This is just another reason.

[00:13:41] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[00:13:41] [SPEAKER_00]: She's just fantastic.

[00:13:43] [SPEAKER_01]: Yes. Yeah, so we'll talk about Sam and yeah, I mean the first note.

[00:13:48] [SPEAKER_01]: The wonderful, beautifully fantastic Lupita Nyong'o who cannot and will not ever do any wrong.

[00:13:54] [SPEAKER_01]: No, she won't.

[00:13:55] [SPEAKER_01]: Is my first note for her.

[00:13:57] [SPEAKER_00]: Love her.

[00:13:58] [SPEAKER_00]: I just keep hoping.

[00:13:59] [SPEAKER_01]: It is well established on this podcast now. The crush I have on Lupita Nyong'o,

[00:14:06] [SPEAKER_01]: she's definitely, I love her very much.

[00:14:08] [SPEAKER_00]: She's so beautiful. She's so talented.

[00:14:12] [SPEAKER_00]: I hope that she continues to do movies that fit within our genre because I want to continue.

[00:14:18] [SPEAKER_01]: This is number three, right?

[00:14:20] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes. Yeah.

[00:14:21] [SPEAKER_00]: I want to be able to continue to talk about her and how amazing she is.

[00:14:26] [SPEAKER_00]: This movie, as far as her performance, I didn't think anything was lacking whatsoever.

[00:14:31] [SPEAKER_00]: I thought her facial acting, physical acting, her body language was fantastic.

[00:14:40] [SPEAKER_00]: One thing I uncovered when I did a little bit of research is she voluntarily lost a little

[00:14:47] [SPEAKER_00]: bit of weight because she wanted to create the vulnerability that comes along with being

[00:14:53] [SPEAKER_00]: someone who has a terminal illness.

[00:14:56] [SPEAKER_00]: She wanted it to be authentic.

[00:14:58] [SPEAKER_00]: She did that and she had never done it for a role before, but she really wanted to play Sam.

[00:15:04] [SPEAKER_00]: She went all in.

[00:15:05] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. Sam is this younger person who has a terminal illness, cancer or something of the sort.

[00:15:13] [SPEAKER_01]: She's in a hospice. It's gotten to that point.

[00:15:16] [SPEAKER_01]: We know her apartment is still nearby with all her stuff in it, but she's at that place

[00:15:21] [SPEAKER_01]: where she's got to be in hospice care because she needs constant medication or nurses or people

[00:15:26] [SPEAKER_01]: who can be there at any second. It's advanced stages. She's not well, but she's still so

[00:15:33] [SPEAKER_01]: young and she's just in this place with all these older people around her. You can just

[00:15:37] [SPEAKER_01]: tell that it's hard on her and it's frustrating her. She's got Reuben there to shoot the shit

[00:15:45] [SPEAKER_01]: and at least it's another younger person to work with, which Alex Wolfe was just the little bit

[00:15:52] [SPEAKER_01]: that he was in this movie. He was so endearing himself. Again, I got all the negativity off

[00:15:57] [SPEAKER_01]: the top because a lot of that's just, I don't know, concept, the way it was executed or

[00:16:04] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't even want to say some of the writing. Again, I'm not quite sure what it was,

[00:16:08] [SPEAKER_01]: but yeah, the acting and the casting, I didn't know demerits for any of that.

[00:16:14] [SPEAKER_01]: It was all incredible.

[00:16:15] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's true. I thought it was fantastic. You know though, I thought that

[00:16:25] [SPEAKER_00]: Alex Wolfe looked different in this, older than he is. I actually went and Googled him and I'm

[00:16:32] [SPEAKER_00]: like, oh my gosh, he looks so older. The last time I saw him in something, it was hereditary

[00:16:39] [SPEAKER_01]: because he played the son.

[00:16:40] [SPEAKER_01]: His brother mixed up still so often that I'm like, which one's which?

[00:16:45] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. I better look it up to make sure.

[00:16:47] [SPEAKER_01]: I never even watched their show on Nickelodeon or whatever. I was kind of past that point.

[00:16:54] [SPEAKER_01]: I knew who they were. I was aware of the Naked Brothers Band and the things that they

[00:17:00] [SPEAKER_01]: did as kids, but I never watched it and it wasn't really anything. My introduction to them

[00:17:06] [SPEAKER_01]: as actors wasn't through Nickelodeon. It was as they were older teenagers and young adults and

[00:17:12] [SPEAKER_01]: then watching them in roles that I've always been highly impressed with their acting,

[00:17:17] [SPEAKER_01]: but I still can't tell them apart sometimes.

[00:17:21] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it is hard to tell them apart. I think that Nat Wolfe though, his brother,

[00:17:31] [SPEAKER_00]: has a more menacing look about him in some of his roles because I just remember him

[00:17:36] [SPEAKER_00]: as Lloyd in the stand and he just, there's just this look. I feel like Alex just has more of a

[00:17:45] [SPEAKER_00]: he could be a sweet guy look, but he looked older. I felt like I didn't recognize him at

[00:17:52] [SPEAKER_00]: first because I looked and thought, hmm, it looks like him, but it can't be him because

[00:17:57] [SPEAKER_00]: he looks like he's in his 30s in this role and he's only like 25 or 26. But we didn't

[00:18:08] [SPEAKER_00]: get that much of Reuben.

[00:18:11] [SPEAKER_01]: No, which I'm sure we'll talk about. But yeah, but here at least when we see him in the

[00:18:17] [SPEAKER_01]: hospice is he's a nurse there and he's got this kind of camaraderie with Sam. I mean,

[00:18:22] [SPEAKER_01]: he's obviously kind of her angry cynicism, he kind of appreciates. He's like,

[00:18:28] [SPEAKER_01]: there's something about somebody who's not afraid to just be open and vocal about like,

[00:18:33] [SPEAKER_01]: this really sucks, fuck this shit. He gets that and he's like, there's something endearing

[00:18:39] [SPEAKER_01]: between them. And I do love her dark humor because it's an extremely valid way of dealing

[00:18:48] [SPEAKER_01]: with grief and mortality. I haven't talked about this on this podcast yet at all. This has been

[00:18:54] [SPEAKER_01]: very private, but I mean, right now my dad is dealing with cancer and treatment and going

[00:18:59] [SPEAKER_01]: through that. And he's very funny about it. Like it's serious and we have our serious

[00:19:07] [SPEAKER_01]: conversations, but also like the dark humor, like it's a way to cope. And he's very much

[00:19:14] [SPEAKER_01]: in that place too sometimes. So like, I get it and I appreciate it. And so I like seeing

[00:19:19] [SPEAKER_01]: that from her as well. This, you know, all right, you know, in 30 minutes we're leaving

[00:19:23] [SPEAKER_01]: for a show. Do you want to come? Well yeah, but I might be dead by then.

[00:19:29] [SPEAKER_00]: She had this way of looking at it. And I think people forget or don't realize that someone

[00:19:36] [SPEAKER_00]: who's going through a terminal illness are dealing with their own grief of themselves.

[00:19:41] [SPEAKER_00]: Absolutely. And that's really difficult when you're dealing with your own mortality.

[00:19:49] [SPEAKER_00]: It just changes everything, the way that you look at things. And she's found a way to balance

[00:19:58] [SPEAKER_00]: all of it and is still showing a sense of humor. And you know, try, I mean her poem about

[00:20:08] [SPEAKER_00]: being hospice and being shit and talking shit, like shit is every other word in her poem about

[00:20:15] [SPEAKER_00]: the hospice. And it just shows that she's still got that little bit of sense of humor left in

[00:20:23] [SPEAKER_00]: her. Despite everything that she's been facing later on in the movie they talk about,

[00:20:30] [SPEAKER_00]: you know, one to two years or five to six months. And this is the sick, you know,

[00:20:34] [SPEAKER_00]: now it's six months. So she's been planning for her own impending death. Like she knows

[00:20:42] [SPEAKER_00]: it's coming. She knows she doesn't have a lot longer. She thought she'd already been

[00:20:47] [SPEAKER_01]: to the city for the last time. Yeah, I really liked that line,

[00:20:51] [SPEAKER_01]: that interaction. And again, it showed even though that I'm jumping ahead just a bit,

[00:20:56] [SPEAKER_01]: but you know, when she says to Ruben outside the theater, you're not my friend,

[00:21:00] [SPEAKER_01]: nurse, it hurts that much deeper. And again, she doesn't mean it. But it's just that she's

[00:21:06] [SPEAKER_01]: rightly angry in that moment. She was promised pizza in the city and in her place mentally,

[00:21:11] [SPEAKER_01]: emotionally, physically, those little things are extremely important. And again, because

[00:21:15] [SPEAKER_01]: it's that last moment, like you told me this, and now you're denying me that

[00:21:21] [SPEAKER_01]: when you know that this could be my last chance for you know, those things matter.

[00:21:26] [SPEAKER_01]: And so that's what gets her to go was that interaction where you know,

[00:21:31] [SPEAKER_01]: she was when was the last time you were in the city? Last time was supposed to be

[00:21:34] [SPEAKER_01]: the last time. And his response was, Well, here's another time I thought that was

[00:21:38] [SPEAKER_00]: beautiful. It was their interactions together. I just felt like he really understood

[00:21:47] [SPEAKER_00]: where she was coming from. Because working in a hospice, you know,

[00:21:53] [SPEAKER_00]: that the people that are there going to die. And you're dealing with that. And I think it

[00:21:59] [SPEAKER_00]: takes a very special person to be in that role, because you're faced with loss and grief all the

[00:22:07] [SPEAKER_00]: time. And for him to be working there, it just has to be gut wrenching at times. And so

[00:22:19] [SPEAKER_00]: to connect with her, and he's got this special relationship with her where

[00:22:24] [SPEAKER_00]: I feel like she brings just a little bit of humor into his life. Yeah, because of the way

[00:22:31] [SPEAKER_00]: that she's looking at things and the way that she's talking about things. Because it's

[00:22:37] [SPEAKER_00]: it's just so sad. I mean, you look at her changing her. She was changing her pad,

[00:22:45] [SPEAKER_00]: the little pads that deliver the pain medication. Yeah. And you can just tell,

[00:22:52] [SPEAKER_00]: you know, she's been doing this for a while. And, you know, it's it's hurting like she's,

[00:22:58] [SPEAKER_00]: it's not working maybe as well as it used to. Yeah, but I think that interaction,

[00:23:02] [SPEAKER_01]: like I said, really gets her going that and the biggest kicker, of course, is the promise of

[00:23:07] [SPEAKER_01]: actual New York pizza in the city. Yes. And then as we learn later on, as we go to learn

[00:23:14] [SPEAKER_01]: what that means to her, that it really is something more than just pizza.

[00:23:19] [SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, and then her looking out the bus window on the way into the city

[00:23:24] [SPEAKER_01]: with the giant cemetery between her and the skyline. I just remember looking at that going,

[00:23:28] [SPEAKER_00]: well, ain't that metaphorical? Oh, yeah, that that really hits. Like, seeing that. And she

[00:23:40] [SPEAKER_00]: is so driven by the little things, you know, but like the pizza, like wanting the pizza.

[00:23:48] [SPEAKER_00]: She's not she reluctantly gets back on the bus, but you could tell she's just like,

[00:23:54] [SPEAKER_00]: I need this, you know, the pizza. It's the little things that matter.

[00:23:58] [SPEAKER_01]: That's the reason I came here. Yeah. Yeah, she's very mad and she's already kind of annoyed

[00:24:04] [SPEAKER_01]: and feeling tricked. She was taken to a marionette show, which strangely ends up impacting her

[00:24:10] [SPEAKER_01]: quite emotionally like that she wasn't ready for. And she opts to like go for a walk and

[00:24:16] [SPEAKER_01]: a snack instead, which I mean, it really was kind of a beautiful performance. It was like,

[00:24:22] [SPEAKER_00]: yeah, it hit me and I couldn't put my finger exactly on why. But it was beautiful. There

[00:24:29] [SPEAKER_00]: was something about it. It was like beautiful and sad at the same time.

[00:24:35] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, which is kind of this movie. Yeah, beautiful and sad. A Quiet Place Day

[00:24:41] [SPEAKER_00]: 1. Here's your tagline. Beautiful and sad because it is it's beautiful, terrifying and sad.

[00:24:49] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. At the same time.

[00:24:51] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. But then, yeah, we talk about getting back on the bus and that's when

[00:24:55] [SPEAKER_01]: shit hits the fan. Everything goes down, which we could talk about that with the creatures and

[00:25:01] [SPEAKER_01]: stuff. But really, with her, you know, she whatever is experiencing it, it's just dust and

[00:25:07] [SPEAKER_01]: bodies and people and scary things. And then, you know, she gets knocked out. Next thing,

[00:25:15] [SPEAKER_01]: she's waking back up in that same theater with some familiar faces. You know, Henry,

[00:25:20] [SPEAKER_01]: as you mentioned, that guy's a connection. We see

[00:25:25] [SPEAKER_01]: Henry, which is Ji-Man Hun-Soo. Yes.

[00:25:30] [SPEAKER_01]: The only crossover really from the other movies other than like the creatures. Because yeah,

[00:25:35] [SPEAKER_01]: he's in this marionette theater with his wife and son, Zina and Ossahar, which his son

[00:25:41] [SPEAKER_01]: Ossahar turns around and admires and pets Frodo, Sam's cat, a little bit. Which it was

[00:25:46] [SPEAKER_01]: cool because I'm like, oh, wow. Like, that's quite the connection there.

[00:25:53] [SPEAKER_01]: And so when she wakes back up in theater, Henry is the one that's there when she wakes up.

[00:25:57] [SPEAKER_01]: And then Ruben has made it back inside. And most importantly, Frodo.

[00:26:03] [SPEAKER_00]: Frodo has to. I remember when I first saw the advertisements for this movie and saw that they

[00:26:10] [SPEAKER_00]: were going to have a cat in it, all I could think is if anything happens to the cat,

[00:26:15] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm not going to be able to take it.

[00:26:18] [SPEAKER_01]: Don't worry, this wasn't Mike Flanagan. The cat was safe.

[00:26:20] [SPEAKER_00]: No, thank God. I had to go on doesthedogdie.com to check if the cat was going to make it before

[00:26:32] [SPEAKER_00]: I went to the movies because I couldn't. I would have been a wreck.

[00:26:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, which that website will throw that out there for those who need it,

[00:26:41] [SPEAKER_01]: which most people who need it probably already know about it. But just in case,

[00:26:43] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't use it because the thing that triggers me is spoilers. I don't want anything. But

[00:26:50] [SPEAKER_01]: as a joke, but no, for real. But for people who have certain like, you know, need certain

[00:26:54] [SPEAKER_01]: trigger warnings about anything, because it's not only does the dog die or does like animal

[00:26:59] [SPEAKER_01]: things, but there's a whole list of all kinds of if you have specific phobias and

[00:27:03] [SPEAKER_01]: things that really do bother you, you can search keywords and trigger warnings and stuff

[00:27:08] [SPEAKER_01]: for all kinds of movies just to give yourself an advance warning on anything you see. So it

[00:27:13] [SPEAKER_01]: is a good tool for certain people to use if you need to. So I'll throw that out there for sure.

[00:27:18] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah, I appreciate it because it's helped me a couple of times. It's easier if I expect

[00:27:26] [SPEAKER_00]: it than if I'm worried about it. And so it just allowed me to watch the movie without

[00:27:32] [SPEAKER_00]: worrying about Frodo because he was too perfect.

[00:27:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. And then through the stuff that they do in this theater, I mean,

[00:27:39] [SPEAKER_01]: the creatures, you know, one of them gets in a little bit and we're seeing, you know, just them

[00:27:46] [SPEAKER_01]: surviving, which people pick up on the no sound thing pretty quickly in this movie.

[00:27:51] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[00:27:51] [SPEAKER_01]: She's good. But, you know, then once things kind of settle down and it's like, all right,

[00:27:57] [SPEAKER_01]: do we hunker down here? Are we staying? That's where Sam has that plan. She's like,

[00:28:04] [SPEAKER_01]: I came to NYC. I came to the city for pizza. I'm getting pizza. And it takes Ruben a beat

[00:28:12] [SPEAKER_01]: to realize she's 100% serious because you see, she holds up that little sign where she's written,

[00:28:16] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm going out. I'm going to Harlem. I'm going to get pizza. And he like laughs a little,

[00:28:20] [SPEAKER_01]: like chuckles to himself quietly, just this little like, oh, that's funny. And then,

[00:28:24] [SPEAKER_01]: no, again, you talked about Lupita Nyong'o's face acting. She doesn't have to say a word

[00:28:29] [SPEAKER_01]: for him to immediately go, oh shit, you're serious. No, you can't do that.

[00:28:34] [SPEAKER_00]: Exactly. And he tells her no and don't. It's so hard sometimes. And I can relate to this. When

[00:28:42] [SPEAKER_00]: someone tells you no or makes you feel like you can't do something, it drives you to do

[00:28:48] [SPEAKER_00]: it anyway, which is great if it's a good thing, but if it's a bad thing, not so much.

[00:28:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, but she's got her heart and mind set on this task. And it's like, yeah, it's crazy. But

[00:29:00] [SPEAKER_01]: crazy seems to be the norm right now. So, you know, why not?

[00:29:09] [SPEAKER_01]: And then we get Ruben's death. Not too long after that. There's a few things. I have these

[00:29:16] [SPEAKER_01]: as like others notes, but you know, I'll just cover that section now because it all kind of

[00:29:21] [SPEAKER_01]: mostly fits in here because before she leaves, we have one last kind of big shebang, I guess,

[00:29:27] [SPEAKER_01]: here at the theater, which, you know, they see the bridges blown up and all of that. And it

[00:29:32] [SPEAKER_01]: leads to this intense moment where Henry accidentally kills this dude just trying to

[00:29:37] [SPEAKER_01]: shut him up and then worrying if his son saw him do that or not. Like there's this like

[00:29:43] [SPEAKER_01]: his son seeing him with the guy, but then they leave it open and did whether his son

[00:29:47] [SPEAKER_01]: still there for the actual, you know, killing the guy, which that's what OK,

[00:29:53] [SPEAKER_01]: I said the negative was over, but it's not really negativity. Just kind of a note.

[00:29:56] [SPEAKER_01]: It's a little disappointing only because it could have led to a really interesting like dynamic

[00:30:01] [SPEAKER_01]: and arc in those characters if this was a story about them. But instead, no, we don't

[00:30:07] [SPEAKER_01]: see them again until the end of the movie. And it's almost like I just want, you know,

[00:30:13] [SPEAKER_01]: that's another prequel movie. Can we get Henry? Can we get the story of Henry? You can get

[00:30:16] [SPEAKER_01]: Jimon, Hounsou and his wife because we see it the boat at the end. Zina, his wife is not there.

[00:30:22] [SPEAKER_01]: Something happened. I mean, we can surmise what happened, but like what were the what was the

[00:30:28] [SPEAKER_01]: situation? What happened? You know, how did it happen? His son still there with him.

[00:30:32] [SPEAKER_01]: It's like I want to see that movie, especially with this whole like his son,

[00:30:36] [SPEAKER_01]: because he seemed like such a sweet father. And I'm sure he is. But in that moment,

[00:30:40] [SPEAKER_01]: really see him conflicted. Like what is my son going to think of me? What would be the

[00:30:44] [SPEAKER_01]: conversations? What would be the drama between that? That in my head, I'm like, I want to

[00:30:48] [SPEAKER_01]: see that story and I know I can't. I'm not seeing that story. And it's a little frustrating.

[00:30:52] [SPEAKER_00]: I know. I want that story too. Yeah. I want to know.

[00:30:55] [SPEAKER_01]: He's a great actor and that kid that played his son. I don't think he was in

[00:30:59] [SPEAKER_00]: Quiet Place 2. I don't think he wasn't. He's only had two roles.

[00:31:03] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. Because I mean, even filming timeline was that wouldn't have worked because

[00:31:07] [SPEAKER_01]: can't kids at age grow so fast. It would have been a different kid if his son was in that movie.

[00:31:11] [SPEAKER_01]: I remember it's been a little while. But like that kid was adorable and it's like,

[00:31:14] [SPEAKER_01]: I want to see more of that, you know? So I don't know. Michael Sernowski, listen,

[00:31:21] [SPEAKER_01]: if you're listening, do that one. Henry and His Family. That's the prequel movie we want next.

[00:31:27] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I think we have to send that to John Krasinski because he is still the captain of

[00:31:33] [SPEAKER_01]: this franchise. Absolutely. Yeah. But then yeah, with Ruben,

[00:31:40] [SPEAKER_01]: with the generator, which the scene bothers me for a different reason. Not that I was like,

[00:31:45] [SPEAKER_01]: oh, they could have done something different. No, it's perfect for the movie. But just in

[00:31:50] [SPEAKER_01]: a hindsight thing, I'm like, yeah, shutting off the generator is a brave act. But I'm like,

[00:31:54] [SPEAKER_01]: knowing the way that these monsters, again, it's hindsight as somebody who's watched three

[00:31:58] [SPEAKER_01]: movies now, knowing the way that they work, I'm like, I feel like they would have just come

[00:32:01] [SPEAKER_01]: and destroyed the generator and then left if people were quiet. Or eventually it becomes

[00:32:06] [SPEAKER_01]: one of those sounds that they are able to ignore. Yes. So like maybe running up to the

[00:32:11] [SPEAKER_01]: roof and shutting off the generator was actually a terrible idea. I see he was trying to do the

[00:32:16] [SPEAKER_01]: right thing, but like not really something he should have even worried about doing.

[00:32:20] [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think. Yeah, definitely not. Yeah. In some of the research I did, I found out

[00:32:26] [SPEAKER_00]: originally it was going to be someone else that did that. But I don't know what that would have

[00:32:32] [SPEAKER_00]: meant for Ruben. Like when would he have died? And I think he had to die so that she wouldn't

[00:32:42] [SPEAKER_00]: feel or be held back by him because I think he was not going to go with her. He would have

[00:32:51] [SPEAKER_01]: her stay. And she did not want to do that. Yeah. So with him, unfortunately gone, it's almost just

[00:32:59] [SPEAKER_01]: like, well now I have nothing really holding me back. So I'm headed to Harlem with nothing

[00:33:05] [SPEAKER_00]: but a cat and a dream of pizza. What is better than pizza and a dream of pizza?

[00:33:13] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, I love pizza. Pizza's good. I might order some pizza tonight. Maybe. I don't know. We'll

[00:33:18] [SPEAKER_01]: see. I've been thinking about that all day and then I get to it and I'm like,

[00:33:23] [SPEAKER_01]: ah, I actually don't. I'm good. Because it's just so much.

[00:33:27] [SPEAKER_00]: But it's so good. And it feeds you for a couple days.

[00:33:30] [SPEAKER_01]: If I had a place around here where I could just order a slice maybe. But

[00:33:34] [SPEAKER_01]: I got to get a whole pizza. That's just a lot. Especially when I work tomorrow.

[00:33:42] [SPEAKER_01]: So she heads out, goes back to the store that she went into before, grabs some supplies

[00:33:49] [SPEAKER_01]: after carefully opening some cat food. She looks over at the water fountain to see a squirrel

[00:33:55] [SPEAKER_01]: and a young Willem Blackwood all the way from Westeros with his little sister.

[00:34:00] [SPEAKER_00]: You noticed that too.

[00:34:03] [SPEAKER_01]: I did. I was like, that kid looks familiar. And then I was just like,

[00:34:07] [SPEAKER_01]: at first, and then I saw in the credits, it was Artie something. And I was like,

[00:34:12] [SPEAKER_01]: I think the kid that plays, which is, I'm not going to try not to spoil anything,

[00:34:15] [SPEAKER_01]: House of the Dragon. The kid that plays Oscar Tully is Artie something as well. And I was like,

[00:34:21] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't think that's the same kid, but could it be? How was the filming?

[00:34:24] [SPEAKER_01]: And then I looked at his credits and was like, oh, House of the Dragon. But I was like,

[00:34:27] [SPEAKER_01]: oh, but it wasn't, it's not Oscar Tully. It's the young Willem Blackwood in season one.

[00:34:36] [SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, I was like, oh, still, crazy that it was still a House of the Dragon connection.

[00:34:40] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. Which, yeah, somehow I feel like that kid's not going to have a happy ending in either of

[00:34:48] [SPEAKER_00]: these worlds. Nope. I don't know. We didn't see him on the boat. So I don't think he made it.

[00:34:55] [SPEAKER_00]: But I do like that she took the time to get them to someplace safe. And one thing I really

[00:35:05] [SPEAKER_00]: appreciated was those little ways that they use things like the rain and thunder to mask the sound,

[00:35:14] [SPEAKER_01]: like talking under the rain. Yeah, that was, that was cool. And you think, I mean,

[00:35:20] [SPEAKER_01]: smart kid for hiding out under the fountain. Like he had figured that out, this masking sounds

[00:35:24] [SPEAKER_01]: idea. And then it being the water fountain, I thought was a purposeful callback to the first

[00:35:30] [SPEAKER_01]: movie with that really great Lee and Marcus scene behind the waterfall that I know we had a lot of

[00:35:36] [SPEAKER_00]: great stuff to talk about. We did. And water, I mean, bringing that all back to they can't swim,

[00:35:45] [SPEAKER_00]: they can't be in the water, those types of things. Yeah. You know, and knowing that the

[00:35:50] [SPEAKER_00]: water was safe and that's where they needed to go. I liked those callbacks because it was,

[00:35:55] [SPEAKER_00]: another connection, but it was stuff we already knew. But it showed it in a little bit different

[00:36:01] [SPEAKER_01]: way. Yeah. The callbacks were cool. And then you get, you mentioned even Sam and Eric talking

[00:36:07] [SPEAKER_01]: under the metal awning with the heavy rain. And as I wrote that notice, Sam and Eric,

[00:36:13] [SPEAKER_01]: Sam and Eric, Lord of the Flies. I wonder if that was on purpose.

[00:36:17] [SPEAKER_00]: You never know. You never know. I liked it though. Cause yeah, because in the thunder,

[00:36:25] [SPEAKER_00]: like kicking her door in with the thunder and shouting and screaming because they need to get

[00:36:33] [SPEAKER_01]: it out. Sometimes you have to get it out. Yeah. I almost expected it to not be her apartment

[00:36:39] [SPEAKER_01]: after she hasn't kicked the door down though. Like there's this like little moment where it's

[00:36:42] [SPEAKER_01]: just some random place. I just need to go somewhere. But anyway, it was. Yeah. Agreed.

[00:36:48] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. But backtracking a second to, yeah, with the kids, they're credited with names. I don't

[00:36:56] [SPEAKER_01]: have them. But yeah, this getting them kind of to safety, hiding out in the little subway

[00:37:02] [SPEAKER_01]: tunnel and then sending them with the other people, which I don't know how that ended

[00:37:06] [SPEAKER_01]: even right there because obviously that went not very well. Which that scene I enjoyed for

[00:37:14] [SPEAKER_01]: tension. There's this, you feel it like building the same time that she does. And again, face acting,

[00:37:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Lupita Nyong'o is incredible. She can do no wrong. I love her so much.

[00:37:24] [SPEAKER_01]: But this just tension of her walking against the crowd of people and slowly realizing that

[00:37:30] [SPEAKER_01]: their sheer numbers with the footsteps and sounds and wheels and roll everything,

[00:37:35] [SPEAKER_01]: it's too much noise and she's in a bad spot. And you see like, you can almost hear her

[00:37:40] [SPEAKER_01]: thoughts as she's looking, her eyes darting around being like, I don't need to be here right

[00:37:45] [SPEAKER_01]: now. She's connecting those dots like this is too much noise and I can't leave because there's

[00:37:51] [SPEAKER_01]: too many people around me. She's closed in. It's almost this claustrophobic little moment

[00:37:55] [SPEAKER_01]: and then the monsters close in and leap and chaos. And it was very, very loud.

[00:38:00] [SPEAKER_00]: Again, making too much noise. Even though every single person was making the tiniest

[00:38:07] [SPEAKER_00]: amount of noise. If you compile it and amplify and multiply it, it's too much. The wheels and

[00:38:17] [SPEAKER_00]: those little suitcase and it's just like, oh man, this is too much.

[00:38:23] [SPEAKER_01]: And then during all the chaos, this please help me guy under the car. What a dip shit. What

[00:38:27] [SPEAKER_00]: was you, what were you doing? Leave her alone. Please help you. Why didn't you just crawl

[00:38:32] [SPEAKER_00]: under the car with her? Like, why are you trying to pull her out or pull at her to help you?

[00:38:38] [SPEAKER_00]: Do you really believe that this very small woman is going to be able to pull you

[00:38:43] [SPEAKER_00]: under the car with her? Like this.

[00:38:47] [SPEAKER_01]: She'll go out there and fight the thing away.

[00:38:50] [SPEAKER_00]: No, no. You know what? Maybe with a lighter and some hairspray.

[00:38:56] [SPEAKER_00]: That'll, that is old school and it used to solve everything.

[00:39:00] [SPEAKER_01]: Mm hmm. Yeah, we talked about the apartment, which I've got more notes on that that are

[00:39:06] [SPEAKER_01]: more Eric centric. We'll get to him. But then yeah, after that night, having that frustration

[00:39:13] [SPEAKER_01]: and being able to scream and just getting that out, which was important to them.

[00:39:17] [SPEAKER_01]: And then we see the next morning she's feeling and looking pretty rough and you can tell like

[00:39:23] [SPEAKER_01]: she's going to need her meds soon. Of course, before that, god damn it, jump scare that I

[00:39:28] [SPEAKER_01]: forgot about that one and it got me again. I'm pretty sure it got me in the theater

[00:39:31] [SPEAKER_00]: and it did it again to me. Was it about water?

[00:39:34] [SPEAKER_01]: Her like little dream vision thing. No, where like the next morning it's like it's daytime

[00:39:39] [SPEAKER_01]: out the window and she's like staring out the window and then baaah, monster. And then

[00:39:42] [SPEAKER_01]: like she actually wakes up and it's still kind of dark outside.

[00:39:44] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh man. Okay. That's not the one that got me. What got me was Eric coming out of the

[00:39:49] [SPEAKER_00]: water. I was not ready for that. I'm like what? It got me again.

[00:39:55] [SPEAKER_01]: So here's our basis is me going, ah, alien monster that murders people. You're going,

[00:40:00] [SPEAKER_01]: ah, British guy. Got it.

[00:40:06] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm a fan. British man.

[00:40:10] [SPEAKER_01]: What's scarier than that?

[00:40:16] [SPEAKER_00]: I can't even. I can't. I just can't.

[00:40:20] [SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, she's in rough shape. So it's a really good thing that Eric is so persistent in sticking

[00:40:27] [SPEAKER_01]: with her even after she leaves him sleeping in the apartment that morning.

[00:40:32] [SPEAKER_00]: He's incredibly persistent.

[00:40:34] [SPEAKER_01]: He is.

[00:40:35] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, he's just a little lost puppy at first.

[00:40:40] [SPEAKER_00]: She's not just giving him subtle hints. She's telling him to go.

[00:40:44] [SPEAKER_00]: Go away and he's like, okay, but no.

[00:40:51] [SPEAKER_01]: Which there's a reason behind that and I'll talk about it when we get to him. But

[00:40:57] [SPEAKER_01]: yeah, they're out and about. And of course, just little things, the books falling over and

[00:41:02] [SPEAKER_01]: then it's like, here we go again. Which I had a note when they're trying to get into that,

[00:41:07] [SPEAKER_01]: I guess like a bank, some kind of business building. We need more rotating doors in horror

[00:41:15] [SPEAKER_01]: because they definitely add some serious tension and fear whenever I see them used.

[00:41:21] [SPEAKER_01]: Also, one scene in one show in particular that I'm sure most people, if they've seen it,

[00:41:27] [SPEAKER_01]: goes straight to.

[00:41:29] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes. And poor, what was the name of that? Poor Noah. That's all I'm going to say.

[00:41:35] [SPEAKER_00]: Man. No. No. Don't need to see that. Yeah, that was quite something.

[00:41:43] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. Just running through that building with all the glass ceilings and walls and...

[00:41:47] [SPEAKER_00]: That reminded me for some reason of the Tomorrow War. The way that the creatures were climbing

[00:41:53] [SPEAKER_00]: dropping in. Yeah, yeah. It just gave me like, I'm like, oh wow, this reminds me of

[00:41:59] [SPEAKER_00]: their initial when they first go into the... When he first goes to his first location.

[00:42:08] [SPEAKER_00]: That's what it reminded me of is everything dropping in.

[00:42:12] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. And then going down into the subway tunnel, which get more just dark subway tunnels

[00:42:17] [SPEAKER_01]: full of murderous monsters. Another trope that is always like effective when it's used.

[00:42:25] [SPEAKER_01]: We talked about that a couple times, even like I think this season we started what? 28 weeks?

[00:42:29] [SPEAKER_01]: And we were talking about like dark subway tunnel makes me think of Cloverfield.

[00:42:34] [SPEAKER_01]: Yep. It all connects.

[00:42:35] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. So even here, I'm like, it's still effective.

[00:42:39] [SPEAKER_00]: Claustrophobic. Like that's what it did to me is I felt very claustrophobic. The more

[00:42:43] [SPEAKER_00]: they're the deeper they go, the worse it is. And I'm just like, no, no, no on so many levels.

[00:42:50] [SPEAKER_01]: And then going through the water that gets deeper and deeper until it like floods up

[00:42:55] [SPEAKER_01]: the tunnel, which then Eric is having just like a panic attack. And I'm like, what happens

[00:42:59] [SPEAKER_01]: when a terminal cancer patient and a Brit with severe anxiety disorder attempt to survive

[00:43:04] [SPEAKER_01]: an alien apocalypse? Find out in a quiet place. Day one.

[00:43:11] [SPEAKER_00]: How did they, I want to know, and I haven't been able to find out what they did with the

[00:43:17] [SPEAKER_00]: cat. Like how this all, because I have to tell you that they did not CGI the cat.

[00:43:23] [SPEAKER_00]: Like there's no CGI. He wanted a real cat. And so they hired these two cats and hired,

[00:43:30] [SPEAKER_00]: I say hired because they got paid. This was a job for them. They did get paid.

[00:43:38] [SPEAKER_00]: They played, there were two cats, Nico and schnitzel were the name of the cats that did it.

[00:43:45] [SPEAKER_00]: He wanted a real cat. And that's what he got at first. I'm like, okay,

[00:43:49] [SPEAKER_00]: they're pulling it along. Okay. Yeah. A cat might do that, but I'm thinking,

[00:43:53] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh my under the water. Really? These cats were great. Of course,

[00:43:57] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't think we ever really see the cat under the water. It's kind of like they go under and

[00:44:01] [SPEAKER_01]: then there's like the brrrr and then they come up the other side and the cat's like sitting up

[00:44:06] [SPEAKER_01]: on the rocks. Like I was waiting for you guys to stand up. Yeah. I don't know how the cat

[00:44:10] [SPEAKER_01]: survives that underwater tunnel of running water at all. It's not going to happen, but again,

[00:44:16] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm glad that he does. There's a lot of things. I'm like, I have a very hard time

[00:44:20] [SPEAKER_01]: believing this cat goes this whole movie without meowing at all. But I'm glad it does.

[00:44:25] [SPEAKER_00]: The thing is cats when they're alone, even though this cat really wasn't alone,

[00:44:31] [SPEAKER_00]: but cats when they're more on their own don't meow as much. They just don't.

[00:44:40] [SPEAKER_00]: That doesn't apply to my cats at my house. They meow a lot, especially when it's dinner time.

[00:44:48] [SPEAKER_00]: But they crawled out and into this church. And you know what that reminded me of the demogorgon

[00:44:55] [SPEAKER_00]: tunnel thing that they have in Dead by Daylight? He comes out of this thing and it's just like,

[00:45:01] [SPEAKER_00]: oh my gosh, that looks like that. It's like they're rising out of like,

[00:45:05] [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know. It's like they're being born out of where they were. Yeah.

[00:45:10] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. They're in this place. And then yeah, Sam is just in really, really bad shape at this

[00:45:15] [SPEAKER_01]: point, which again, good that she keeps Eric around because he finally faces this.

[00:45:20] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, we'll talk about him more as a character, but it's clear. He's definitely

[00:45:25] [SPEAKER_01]: an anxiety disorder case. I'm sure he has got anxiety medication that he should be on and is

[00:45:32] [SPEAKER_00]: not. Well, here's the thing about Eric. There's a deleted scene. Sam asked Eric why he was

[00:45:42] [SPEAKER_00]: wearing a suit and tie when the attack hit. And he reveals he had come to New York to be

[00:45:48] [SPEAKER_00]: accepted, which he wasn't by neither his father nor the small town he came from,

[00:45:56] [SPEAKER_00]: but that he still felt lonely, heavily implying that he is a gay man and he was about to commit

[00:46:03] [SPEAKER_00]: suicide. And Michael Sarnowski confirmed in an interview that the character of Eric is gay.

[00:46:12] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay. And we didn't see that. And I wish we had. Right. Like I feel like it just adds

[00:46:17] [SPEAKER_01]: another dimension to him. Because for me, what I see in him is like, oh, he's just somebody who's

[00:46:23] [SPEAKER_01]: suffering from like severe, which the depression and stuff like severe anxiety disorder and his

[00:46:30] [SPEAKER_01]: trauma, like the way he deals with that is by attachment. And Sam is the first person he saw

[00:46:36] [SPEAKER_01]: while in that mode. And so he just like he's and he even says, because she's like,

[00:46:41] [SPEAKER_01]: you need to go to the South Harbor. You need to go this way. Get away from me. And he's

[00:46:44] [SPEAKER_01]: okay. But then he can't do it. And then when she's like, why are you still not leaving?

[00:46:48] [SPEAKER_01]: And the only thing he can say is I'm scared. And she realizes like this attachment with him

[00:46:54] [SPEAKER_01]: and like what he's going through. And so she brings him along. And so that's what I see

[00:46:59] [SPEAKER_01]: with him. And I mean, it still kind of adds up that he's just in this place where he's

[00:47:04] [SPEAKER_01]: just alone in his own head. He's just grasping onto anything that he can find. And he just

[00:47:10] [SPEAKER_00]: Sam. Yeah, because he wants to be accepted. I think that's part of it. I think he wants

[00:47:18] [SPEAKER_00]: he hasn't had it in his life. And no wonder he's got an anxiety disorder if this is

[00:47:23] [SPEAKER_00]: life that he had. I wish we had heard that because I just think it it helps.

[00:47:31] [SPEAKER_00]: Like it adds to the story. It doesn't take away from it. It helps explain a little bit

[00:47:36] [SPEAKER_00]: the anxiety. Yeah, and I would like to have seen that. I liked him as a character, but

[00:47:44] [SPEAKER_01]: we'll talk about him when we're done with Sam. Yeah. So you kind of wrap up a little

[00:47:51] [SPEAKER_01]: bit with her. Really this whole journey for her again, it's it's about pizza.

[00:47:58] [SPEAKER_01]: More than that, it's about memory. It's about her father. Clearly her father was

[00:48:05] [SPEAKER_01]: her rock, the person that she loved more than anything who was just like, you know,

[00:48:11] [SPEAKER_01]: attached at the hip. This was her person that was life, everything revolved around him.

[00:48:17] [SPEAKER_01]: And then he died seemingly of the exact same thing also a terminal illness, cancer,

[00:48:21] [SPEAKER_01]: some kind of thing. And yet still as she's kind of nearing the end of her life,

[00:48:28] [SPEAKER_01]: what she focuses on are memories, the good times and what those are her favorite memories,

[00:48:34] [SPEAKER_01]: things she clings to are going to watch him play piano at the jazz club and then going to

[00:48:40] [SPEAKER_01]: patsies and getting pizza afterwards. Like that's the core memory that she is holding onto.

[00:48:47] [SPEAKER_01]: And so now that she's dying, just like he did, it's like this last thing she wants to do.

[00:48:52] [SPEAKER_01]: She's like, if I have any ounce of energy and freedom in this life to make one more decision

[00:48:59] [SPEAKER_01]: and do something for me, I just need that pizza one more time. Let me end my journey

[00:49:05] [SPEAKER_01]: in the happiest place imaginable for one more time. And that's really the root of this journey.

[00:49:13] [SPEAKER_01]: It's on paper and she fights against hell for pizza, but there's a lot more emotionally

[00:49:20] [SPEAKER_00]: connected to it for sure. Yeah, definitely. I liked that it tied into the nostalgia.

[00:49:30] [SPEAKER_00]: It wasn't just about the pizza. It was about the memories and what the pizza represented

[00:49:36] [SPEAKER_00]: because she didn't have her father. He couldn't, he wasn't physically there.

[00:49:41] [SPEAKER_00]: The next best thing she could get was the pizza because that took her mentally and

[00:49:46] [SPEAKER_00]: emotionally, mentally and emotionally to the place of remembering those special times that

[00:49:56] [SPEAKER_00]: connected her in a way. Unfortunately, patsies look like it had been firebombed.

[00:50:02] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. That place didn't fare so well, which Patsy's Pizzeria in Harlem, very real,

[00:50:10] [SPEAKER_01]: very historic place. And it is definitely locked away in my list of places to try to visit.

[00:50:18] [SPEAKER_01]: Saved I've got on my Google Maps. I'm just constantly adding places that come up in movies

[00:50:24] [SPEAKER_01]: and TV shows and podcasts and recommendations and stuff like I'm just so that's that's in

[00:50:31] [SPEAKER_01]: there now. I'm like, you know, if I'm ever in Harlem, I don't know when that'll ever happen.

[00:50:35] [SPEAKER_01]: But who knows? Patsy's Pizzeria, which I went onto their Google Maps like little page,

[00:50:41] [SPEAKER_01]: the Google page for Patsy's and like was reading reviews. Of course, it's all like

[00:50:46] [SPEAKER_01]: great, you know, wood fire pizzas and its historic place and everybody loves it.

[00:50:50] [SPEAKER_01]: And one of my favorite reviews is like, I'm so glad we got to try it before the aliens

[00:50:53] [SPEAKER_01]: destroyed it. It's just really great. It's like or because it gets too popular and

[00:51:00] [SPEAKER_01]: busy because of the movie. Yeah, it's true though. I mean,

[00:51:09] [SPEAKER_00]: places like that that they film at that are popular that are real places often get mobbed

[00:51:15] [SPEAKER_01]: by fans. There's like the the beef kind of that in the show The Bear.

[00:51:23] [SPEAKER_01]: Real place, real restaurant that they shot that like first season out of that is a

[00:51:29] [SPEAKER_01]: like Italian beef sandwich shop. It's very ingrained in Chicago and it's like,

[00:51:35] [SPEAKER_01]: I want to go there. But like since the, you know, popularity of The Bear, that place has

[00:51:41] [SPEAKER_01]: just become more and more popular and busy with lines wrapping around the building. And

[00:51:45] [SPEAKER_01]: like I've seen some like stuff online of people going there to get sandwiched. Like

[00:51:48] [SPEAKER_01]: the cast of The Bear is there just to go pick up sandwiches and stuff like around times

[00:51:52] [SPEAKER_01]: they're filming. They're very ingrained and they, you know, are very close to it.

[00:51:56] [SPEAKER_00]: Like that's great. That is awesome. So she ends up not being able to like,

[00:52:05] [SPEAKER_00]: she's devastated that Patsy's is not, I mean, it's out of the question.

[00:52:12] [SPEAKER_00]: So the next best thing is they went to the bar that her father used to play at,

[00:52:18] [SPEAKER_00]: which also brings and connects her, you know, the everything. Yeah. It's like I have so many

[00:52:25] [SPEAKER_01]: things to say about all that, but like it's all filed under Eric and I'm just kind of waiting.

[00:52:30] [SPEAKER_01]: This is definitely the moment of the movie he shines the most for me. We'll get there.

[00:52:35] [SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, after all of that, they're kind of, you know, finished up with their time there

[00:52:41] [SPEAKER_01]: and then just happenstance, luckily, what a coincidence, the boat that they're trying

[00:52:46] [SPEAKER_01]: to get to has kind of swung around to the other side because they're telling people go

[00:52:50] [SPEAKER_01]: south, go south, go south for the boats. And yet Harlem, quite north of New York.

[00:52:59] [SPEAKER_01]: And the boat has kind of come, the Hudson goes around, it's fine, you know, and so the boat

[00:53:03] [SPEAKER_01]: has kind of circled back up around. And so it's go time. It's like this is we've got to go,

[00:53:08] [SPEAKER_01]: but you can, you can kind of see, especially on second watch, because you know how it ends,

[00:53:11] [SPEAKER_01]: know how everything goes, but you really can see it again in just her body language. And

[00:53:16] [SPEAKER_01]: knows that she doesn't have the strength to make it to that boat. She's not swimming.

[00:53:20] [SPEAKER_01]: She's not running, you know, she's like, it's not going to happen.

[00:53:25] [SPEAKER_01]: No, and she'd rather go out on her own terms. So she gives Eric her sweater.

[00:53:29] [SPEAKER_01]: And then later when they get down there, even her cat, and just make sure that he has

[00:53:33] [SPEAKER_01]: the open chance to get to that water, give that opening to him. She gets to let out

[00:53:37] [SPEAKER_01]: some rage on some cars with a crowbar, give him just moments that he needs to just make

[00:53:43] [SPEAKER_01]: it into the water past the monster's grasp. And to get away to safety, we'll talk about him a

[00:53:49] [SPEAKER_01]: little bit more. But and then kind of her there at the end, she goes back to the Jazz Club and

[00:53:56] [SPEAKER_01]: she's looking at the photo. The sweater that she gave to Eric was her dad's that she was

[00:54:02] [SPEAKER_01]: wearing. I think I missed that on my first watch in the theater. And so.

[00:54:06] [SPEAKER_00]: I remembered it. I saw it. Yeah, I remember seeing the photo at the end and realizing

[00:54:11] [SPEAKER_00]: it. So I remembered it through this time, the whole time I'm thinking she's going to give her

[00:54:18] [SPEAKER_00]: dad sweater to Oh my God, you know, and it just hits you, I think differently when you realize

[00:54:23] [SPEAKER_00]: what it is and what it represents. Like when she has his coat and he has her sweater,

[00:54:30] [SPEAKER_00]: you can just see the transition that's coming. Yeah, but I don't want to say too much because

[00:54:36] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to talk about some stuff when we talk about Eric. Yeah, but yeah, leaves her leaves

[00:54:45] [SPEAKER_01]: him with the sweater and then she's looking at that photo. And then also we see with Eric

[00:54:50] [SPEAKER_01]: on what Sam had slipped her or slipped him that note in the pocket. Just I'm not going to I

[00:54:55] [SPEAKER_01]: don't have the whole thing written down, but the gist of it is thank you for bringing me

[00:54:58] [SPEAKER_00]: home and helping me feel alive one last time. Yeah, I lost it today. I didn't cry at the

[00:55:05] [SPEAKER_01]: end of it today. I did. I did. I couldn't have it. It's just wonderful music choice there at the

[00:55:11] [SPEAKER_00]: end. Nina Simone, Nina Simone, Nina Simone. I've heard Buble's version of that song so many

[00:55:20] [SPEAKER_00]: times. It was so beautiful to hear Nina Simone's and then you have to surmise what happened.

[00:55:31] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah. She went out of she's going out on her own terms. Yeah, she went out on her own terms.

[00:55:38] [SPEAKER_00]: And that I think is what she wanted to do all along. I think she looked at the hospice as

[00:55:45] [SPEAKER_00]: not being able to go out on her own terms like she's too regimented by the life there.

[00:55:50] [SPEAKER_00]: And she Yeah, it took her away from what she really wanted. And this gave her the opportunity

[00:55:56] [SPEAKER_00]: to do exactly what she wanted, which was to go out on her own terms with no one telling

[00:56:01] [SPEAKER_01]: her what to do. Yeah, she decided what she wanted to do. Yeah. That was great. So, Eric.

[00:56:13] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, Joseph Quinn. Oh, great to see great to see Joseph Quinn getting to use his natural voice.

[00:56:23] [SPEAKER_01]: He's a British actor. Because my as I'm sure most people's first introduction to him was

[00:56:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Stranger Things. So I love that he's getting some more really cool work after that, of course,

[00:56:36] [SPEAKER_01]: this movie and then he's also confirmed to be joining the MCU soon as part of the Fantastic

[00:56:43] [SPEAKER_01]: Four. He will be our new Johnny Storm slash Human Torch. Yes. So that'll be interesting.

[00:56:49] [SPEAKER_00]: He's also I believe in Gladiator Two, which is the movie that's going to be coming out.

[00:56:55] [SPEAKER_00]: That we didn't know we wanted and didn't maybe think we needed.

[00:57:03] [SPEAKER_01]: So we'll see. Also, he's in the movie Overlord, which I still have not seen yet to see.

[00:57:10] [SPEAKER_01]: But I think we can cover I think we can. Yeah. I haven't seen it, but I want to. And

[00:57:15] [SPEAKER_01]: then I was looking at the cast that I was like, oh, he's in that with Wyatt Russell

[00:57:18] [SPEAKER_01]: and Peele Asback and Jacob Anderson. Why the actual fuck? I've not watched this movie yet.

[00:57:24] [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know, but I'm thinking it might get added to our list. So yeah, I think so.

[00:57:31] [SPEAKER_00]: I do think we're going to end up covering it. Yeah. This season maybe. I thought I you know

[00:57:37] [SPEAKER_00]: what? I haven't seen it either. And I remember wanting to go to the movies to see it. Yeah.

[00:57:42] [SPEAKER_01]: Well, I remember keeping tabs on it very early because originally it was supposed to be a

[00:57:48] [SPEAKER_01]: Cloverfield movie that script was going to be adapted into a Cloverfield movie like 10

[00:57:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Cloverfield Lane was. And then they ended up not doing that and scrapping that idea and just

[00:57:56] [SPEAKER_01]: letting it be its own thing and not tying it into the Cloverfield universe. And so just for

[00:58:00] [SPEAKER_01]: whatever reason, I didn't get around to it after I knew it wasn't. Yeah, it's I have no

[00:58:07] [SPEAKER_00]: excuse. I just didn't end up going. And so okay, we will let's plan on it. We're going

[00:58:14] [SPEAKER_00]: to cover it. Yes. Soon. I mean, Jacob Anderson is in it too. Okay, this is a problem. Yeah.

[00:58:20] [SPEAKER_00]: But have we covered too much Wyatt Russell? I don't think that's a thing, right? I think the

[00:58:26] [SPEAKER_01]: only thing from him we've covered is I mean, we did cover Night Swim recently. Yeah.

[00:58:33] [SPEAKER_00]: There's no rule against it. You can't have too much Wyatt Russell. No, you can't. That's not

[00:58:37] [SPEAKER_00]: a thing that can happen. And there's no rule against covering movies with similar actors in

[00:58:43] [SPEAKER_00]: a short period of time either. No, of course not. No. Plus we make up our own rules and

[00:58:48] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm saying that we don't have a rule against it. So let's go for it. Yes.

[00:58:53] [SPEAKER_00]: So speaking of Eric, yes, I did jump when he jumped out of the water.

[00:58:59] [SPEAKER_01]: Wet British man.

[00:59:05] [SPEAKER_00]: I was yeah, I forgot it. I did not remember that it was going to happen like that.

[00:59:12] [SPEAKER_00]: But it was a great place for him to hide. I mean, I figure he must have jumped in there

[00:59:16] [SPEAKER_00]: when the attack was going on. The attack of on the masses of people that were walking

[00:59:23] [SPEAKER_01]: and rolling and shuffling to the boat. Yeah. And I've talked a lot about some of the

[00:59:30] [SPEAKER_01]: big things on it, of course, like him following Sam around like this lost puppy and then

[00:59:34] [SPEAKER_01]: she's telling him where to go, but he's too scared. It's not processing. And again,

[00:59:38] [SPEAKER_01]: it's this trauma mode of attachment and his severe anxiety disorder clearly that

[00:59:44] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm diagnosing him. Yeah, with yes, I mean, it feels pretty clear and then especially

[00:59:50] [SPEAKER_01]: with what you said about some of the deleted scenes and stuff about him, it makes sense.

[00:59:55] [SPEAKER_00]: It does. It just I wish that we had gotten that like even a little bit of that to

[01:00:02] [SPEAKER_00]: understand because I think it adds to his character in a way that would have been

[01:00:07] [SPEAKER_01]: helpful. Yeah. We talk about getting to the apartment, which his initial response to her

[01:00:13] [SPEAKER_01]: pizza plan was really great. It was very much like, oh, totally. That's that's not insane at

[01:00:20] [SPEAKER_00]: all. OK. But he went all in with her. Like, yeah, over time, I felt like they just

[01:00:28] [SPEAKER_00]: connected so well. And I love that it wasn't a romantic thing, that it was two people in

[01:00:33] [SPEAKER_00]: a really tough situation that were bonding over their mutual trauma and supporting each other

[01:00:40] [SPEAKER_01]: to get where they needed to be. Yeah, it was great. And it's at first he's like, oh, no,

[01:00:45] [SPEAKER_01]: I've connected with a crazy person. But then after that night where they, you know, he's

[01:00:51] [SPEAKER_01]: reading her poem and realizing kind of her situation and talking to her and that bonding

[01:00:58] [SPEAKER_01]: there that night, like, yeah, he's he's in it at that point. He's just like,

[01:01:04] [SPEAKER_01]: I need to belong. This is something that makes me belong. You have something that means so much

[01:01:11] [SPEAKER_01]: to you. So what better for me to do than to help you and make sure that you reach your goal?

[01:01:16] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, I think he needed a quest. It isn't Dungeons and Dragons, but he needed a quest.

[01:01:23] [SPEAKER_01]: He did. And then, you know, when they're in the church, Sam is just so rough and terrible

[01:01:29] [SPEAKER_01]: and he's trying to give her water and then that's not working. And he steps out and faces

[01:01:35] [SPEAKER_01]: that fear and anxiety and he goes on his own. And then, you know, Frodo kind of joins him.

[01:01:40] [SPEAKER_01]: Yes, he did. But he goes out to get these meds that she needs to reach her pizza goal.

[01:01:47] [SPEAKER_01]: And it's honestly a very beautiful thing. And he's a hero. He gets that fentanyl patch

[01:01:53] [SPEAKER_01]: so she can rest up and feel a little bit better for that saucy road ahead.

[01:01:57] [SPEAKER_01]: They're gonna get there.

[01:02:00] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, he was just so endearing. His character was so endearing because he didn't have to do

[01:02:07] [SPEAKER_01]: any of that. He barely knows Sam, but he's

[01:02:12] [SPEAKER_01]: gonna stick it through and help her reach her goal because he cares. He genuinely cares.

[01:02:17] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. And I think even though she kept telling him to go away and do, you know,

[01:02:23] [SPEAKER_00]: go there, don't be here. You need to leave me alone. Sometimes you can push people away like

[01:02:29] [SPEAKER_00]: that. You can keep trying to push them away and then you're stuck sitting there wondering

[01:02:35] [SPEAKER_00]: they don't leave even though you're trying to push them away. And I think sometimes people

[01:02:42] [SPEAKER_00]: will push others away because they're trying to protect themselves. And I think

[01:02:49] [SPEAKER_00]: the ones who stay and don't run away, you're almost I think in awe of them because

[01:02:56] [SPEAKER_00]: you know that they really care about you because they're not running away.

[01:03:01] [SPEAKER_00]: They're still there the next day and the day after or help you get on a pizza quest.

[01:03:07] [SPEAKER_00]: They're the ones that are gonna help you. And I think it's kind of amazing when you

[01:03:18] [SPEAKER_00]: have made it on this journey. Yeah. And I hate to think of what would have happened with Frodo.

[01:03:26] [SPEAKER_00]: Like she would have probably passed away and at least this time he's gonna get a good life with

[01:03:33] [SPEAKER_01]: Frodo Does Manhattan. Yep. It's just him in the city rolling around.

[01:03:40] [SPEAKER_00]: It's funny because the director, he had this idea. He thought that he looked at what Frodo's life

[01:03:51] [SPEAKER_00]: probably was and he thought about well you know what Frodo probably was a stray cat that she

[01:03:58] [SPEAKER_00]: started feeding and he wouldn't leave and he stayed around. And that was what that was the

[01:04:08] [SPEAKER_00]: about what the backstory was for Frodo. And it just goes to show like he,

[01:04:16] [SPEAKER_00]: she does gravitate towards the creatures or the people that don't leave. She will give into you

[01:04:25] [SPEAKER_00]: and be you know allow you in her life but you have to be persistent and that is exactly what

[01:04:32] [SPEAKER_00]: she was. Yeah. She kept telling him to leave he just wouldn't listen.

[01:04:39] [SPEAKER_01]: We talked about Patsy's yeah huge bust, places destroyed and Sam is just I mean deeply sad at

[01:04:45] [SPEAKER_01]: that. And again with Eric that we've come to see here knows just to comfort her and there

[01:04:50] [SPEAKER_01]: was something oddly beautiful about him just sitting and hugging her in front of a flaming

[01:04:56] [SPEAKER_01]: manhole which I could ruin that sentiment with a joke regarding the term flaming manhole but I

[01:05:01] [SPEAKER_01]: will refrain because listeners can do that on their own. And you've done it anyway.

[01:05:08] [SPEAKER_00]: You don't have to tell the joke when you go around. You in a roundabout way you told the

[01:05:15] [SPEAKER_01]: joke. Did I? I would never. You did and yes you would. But Eric does have a backup plan

[01:05:24] [SPEAKER_01]: that is just as meaningful and it's just the way he just asks a simple question.

[01:05:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Where did your dad play piano? Like he knows it's like we can salvage something here.

[01:05:37] [SPEAKER_01]: So he brings her to that jazz bar and then he goes and gets pizza. It's cheapo 99 cent

[01:05:42] [SPEAKER_01]: pizza from around the corner but a sharpie and some imagination can fix that.

[01:05:49] [SPEAKER_01]: It's the thought that counts. Yeah and then his silent performance with Sam on stage was

[01:05:55] [SPEAKER_01]: amazing and the only thing I can think that Holstain is like what a beautiful human soul

[01:06:00] [SPEAKER_00]: that Eric is. Yeah I mean I teared up during that because all I can think is he

[01:06:07] [SPEAKER_00]: does not really know her and yet he's given so much of himself to get her to where she

[01:06:15] [SPEAKER_00]: wanted to go on this quest. How incredible of a person he is and god damn his family for

[01:06:23] [SPEAKER_00]: not realizing it and accepting him for who he is. Yeah and that's kind of the end I have of him.

[01:06:29] [SPEAKER_01]: I have one other note for others which is more a Henry thing but I'll tie it in because

[01:06:33] [SPEAKER_01]: I've covered all those already. Which is I mean at the end of course he makes that

[01:06:38] [SPEAKER_01]: jump into the water, swims up to the boat and gets on there and kind of a big takeaway

[01:06:44] [SPEAKER_01]: for me there is that Henry and his son are there on the boat. Again don't know what happened

[01:06:49] [SPEAKER_01]: but his wife, you can assume what happened exactly. But also at the end of the movie his son

[01:06:57] [SPEAKER_01]: is I thought it was just a perfect little full circle where we see him holding and

[01:07:01] [SPEAKER_01]: snuggling the same cat that he liked and was petting in the theater that the woman behind

[01:07:06] [SPEAKER_01]: him was holding. I think that was just very very cute. But then let's not be a buzz kill

[01:07:13] [SPEAKER_01]: and burst people's bubbles but it's kind of what we're doing here. The assumptions here of

[01:07:21] [SPEAKER_01]: with them being on this boat we know then that this boat contains the people that end up

[01:07:28] [SPEAKER_01]: being the people on the island with the radio station in A Quiet Place Part 2.

[01:07:33] [SPEAKER_01]: Yes. Because we know that's where Henry ends up which again means not to be a buzz kill

[01:07:38] [SPEAKER_01]: that we can also assume that Eric and Frodo were on that island when the monster took a

[01:07:43] [SPEAKER_01]: boat right over there and wreaked havoc on the citizens of that island. Hopefully they were okay

[01:07:48] [SPEAKER_01]: we don't know you know but they were there at that time I'm assuming. Yes agreed. We know he

[01:07:58] [SPEAKER_00]: at least survived for a while. Yeah. We don't know anything outside of that which is sad.

[01:08:05] [SPEAKER_00]: But maybe we'll find out. It will depend on if John Krasinski wants to drive us in that

[01:08:11] [SPEAKER_01]: direction. Wouldn't that be cool if like the Quiet Place like part three kind of thing has

[01:08:18] [SPEAKER_01]: you know we return to the Abbott stuff and then there's a connection with the island

[01:08:22] [SPEAKER_01]: because there were survivors on the island. Yeah. I mean and then we get Joseph Quinn

[01:08:26] [SPEAKER_01]: reprising the role of Eric in that movie oh my gosh. Yes. Let's do it yes. Krasinski do it.

[01:08:34] [SPEAKER_00]: Bring back Nico and Schnitzel. Yes they're ready to come back. Oh can we talk about

[01:08:40] [SPEAKER_00]: Frodo can we please talk about Frodo. Frodo was his own character he really was his own character.

[01:08:46] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh absolutely I've talked about most of my notes with him but yeah.

[01:08:51] [SPEAKER_00]: Peg he got his own slice of pizza. He did. Okay that's what Dante would do Dante would

[01:08:57] [SPEAKER_00]: do that. He totally would. He's an alley cat at heart. Yeah just a good kitty again I

[01:09:07] [SPEAKER_01]: have a hard time believing a lot of his survival things but you know what I'm glad that he did.

[01:09:13] [SPEAKER_01]: He's a good kitty stumbles upon us soaking wet Eddie Munson Eric brings him back to Sam. He

[01:09:20] [SPEAKER_00]: can always find his person. Yes I appreciated so much the cat's acting like because they

[01:09:34] [SPEAKER_00]: did at different points. Yeah. And I loved it. Yeah so I have a quote from

[01:09:41] [SPEAKER_01]: the cats that played Frodo here it says see we're actually the star of this movie and

[01:09:46] [SPEAKER_00]: we need to be in as many scenes as possible thank you. Yes and I may say um hmm I don't

[01:09:53] [SPEAKER_00]: know Eric and Frodo could be on my end of season list. I mean yeah so Frodo is a mostly

[01:10:03] [SPEAKER_01]: very good cat. Yes and I say mostly because there's also the time that he leads Eric into

[01:10:09] [SPEAKER_01]: a construction zone that's also seemingly an impact zone slash nest for the alien monsters

[01:10:13] [SPEAKER_01]: so that was kind of shitty to do but what was that about? I don't know it's like I know a

[01:10:21] [SPEAKER_01]: good way to go home no no I'm gonna go sit up here on this beam and yeah make sure you

[01:10:28] [SPEAKER_01]: have a super up close and personal close call with one of these things. Oh man no. Was Frodo

[01:10:35] [SPEAKER_01]: evil the whole time was he trying to get Eric killed? No no he Frodo wouldn't do that.

[01:10:43] [SPEAKER_01]: Never I mean he is a cat there's a little bit of evil in him always. Yes they're very

[01:10:48] [SPEAKER_00]: independent these cats even if he was a service kitty like they're very independent

[01:10:53] [SPEAKER_00]: and a little evil always a little evil. I don't know about evil. Just a little or at least a

[01:11:00] [SPEAKER_01]: little. Only in the best possible way. Yeah it manifests in different ways with different cats

[01:11:06] [SPEAKER_00]: but there's always a little. Yeah my friend Amy has a cat named Norma and that cat might be

[01:11:14] [SPEAKER_00]: a lot evil judging by the scratches on Amy's hand every week yeah.

[01:11:22] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah yeah Frodo was really special I love that Sernowski stuck to his guns and did this

[01:11:31] [SPEAKER_00]: with cats and not with CGI because it would have taken you completely out of the movie

[01:11:37] [SPEAKER_00]: if it was CGI. And the interesting thing though in Egyptian mythology cats are guides to

[01:11:49] [SPEAKER_00]: the underworld or afterlife which can also explain why Frodo was so calm in the face

[01:11:56] [SPEAKER_00]: of the madness that was going on because he was relying on ancestral DNA

[01:12:05] [SPEAKER_00]: Passed on for generations.

[01:12:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Um I think that's other than just some like notes on the creatures the monsters the aliens.

[01:12:18] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes I like that we got to see one of them drowning underwater I thought that was cool

[01:12:24] [SPEAKER_00]: the onion faces I guess they're really called death angels like that's what I had never

[01:12:31] [SPEAKER_00]: I've never heard that term but no but as soon as I was like googling and looking into things

[01:12:36] [SPEAKER_00]: they're credited as death angels on so many different wikis. I wonder if that's a

[01:12:42] [SPEAKER_00]: Krasinski ism or not. I don't know but all they are onion faces to me so I just called them

[01:12:48] [SPEAKER_00]: onion heads or whatever uh but we did get to see one they were down in the sewer that one

[01:12:54] [SPEAKER_01]: died by drowning. Yeah that one that say just he was like this is my hidey hole

[01:13:01] [SPEAKER_01]: I was like why is there a monster in a ceiling hidey hole just to be very scary and have him

[01:13:06] [SPEAKER_01]: creepily crawl out and into the water after the main characters but it's a good thing they

[01:13:10] [SPEAKER_01]: do drown so dang fast. Yeah they're not loving the water it's not happening. Not the most

[01:13:24] [SPEAKER_01]: especially this close-up the impact you know the moment life on earth changed forever

[01:13:29] [SPEAKER_01]: yes just quite scary the meteors falling from the sky colliding and then immediately

[01:13:34] [SPEAKER_01]: the monsters are at it in full force you know anyone who makes a sound is just going

[01:13:38] [SPEAKER_00]: gone into dust and ash yeah uh dust and ash the whole thing with that that is when I

[01:13:45] [SPEAKER_00]: really noticed Lupita Nyong'o's like facial and body acting because you could

[01:13:53] [SPEAKER_00]: feel the tension the fear the the terror yeah in what she was portraying she didn't even have

[01:14:00] [SPEAKER_00]: to say anything one of the reasons that she loved doing this film too is that she got to

[01:14:05] [SPEAKER_00]: learn how to tell or she got to share how to tell the story without words like physical

[01:14:13] [SPEAKER_01]: acting versus you know just like which we already know she's so incredible she is physical

[01:14:20] [SPEAKER_01]: acting and face acting I mean we covered us like we did yeah we did

[01:14:30] [SPEAKER_01]: know what she's capable of for sure yeah um this was the most detail we've seen on these

[01:14:36] [SPEAKER_01]: monsters I believe and they're still incredibly creepy they had we see early on in the theater

[01:14:42] [SPEAKER_01]: when one of them is like pawing kind of at the dead body in front of Reuben they have

[01:14:47] [SPEAKER_01]: like the little front plates on their onion face you said that are being used as like

[01:14:52] [SPEAKER_01]: little spider jaws or chalice array if you fancy the term for those but you know like

[01:14:57] [SPEAKER_01]: they're just tapping like they're just like the little jaws on a spider and then their legs

[01:15:02] [SPEAKER_01]: we get like the like Jurassic Park raptors in the kitchen kind of moment of following

[01:15:07] [SPEAKER_01]: their feet walking and it's like their legs are somehow both spider-like and hoof-like

[01:15:12] [SPEAKER_00]: the same time and it's real scary yeah so we did get a little bit more of the creatures as far as

[01:15:22] [SPEAKER_00]: that type of thing but visual yeah but you didn't like learn anything but again

[01:15:29] [SPEAKER_00]: we knew more about the creatures than any of the people in this film because we'd seen two

[01:15:34] [SPEAKER_00]: movies about them yeah so but there was no like discovery of things I guess maybe maybe you were

[01:15:42] [SPEAKER_00]: expecting that maybe that's what you wanted was more of like the discovery of what they were like

[01:15:48] [SPEAKER_01]: yeah uh I think just a little reminders of things that we did know but it was good to see back

[01:15:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Zina Henry's wife is on the radio listening with her headphones writing down just the

[01:15:58] [SPEAKER_01]: information that people are saying you know it's marking stuff on the globe it's it's global

[01:16:02] [SPEAKER_01]: she's kind of getting that uh she marks you know and writes down to stay off the bridges

[01:16:06] [SPEAKER_01]: and we see that pretty soon after that they blowing all the bridges as they're trying to

[01:16:10] [SPEAKER_01]: contain this threat because remember they can't swim they figured that out pretty quick somehow

[01:16:14] [SPEAKER_01]: so yeah tried to contain them obviously it did not work in any way but let me try but I

[01:16:21] [SPEAKER_01]: guess it does work in some instances again spoilers for Quiet Place Part Two I don't

[01:16:27] [SPEAKER_01]: know who's seen this movie and not the first two I'm not sure uh but yeah I mean we know that

[01:16:33] [SPEAKER_01]: you know Henry the people on the boat at the end of the movie that island that they're on they

[01:16:37] [SPEAKER_01]: live there without any worry about these monsters for years so yeah it's true I mean

[01:16:46] [SPEAKER_01]: they're having like a normal neighborhood like parties and picnics and loud music playing and

[01:16:50] [SPEAKER_01]: like it's pretty much life as usual other than they're still kind of in this apocalyptic that

[01:16:55] [SPEAKER_01]: store and grow our own food and kind of stuff they can't go to stores like it's not like

[01:16:59] [SPEAKER_01]: civilian life but they're self-sustained and contained and living out there on that island

[01:17:03] [SPEAKER_01]: for years without any instance so like it does work to some degree if you can get to an

[01:17:08] [SPEAKER_00]: island then you're pretty golden that's usually the thing when you think about

[01:17:13] [SPEAKER_00]: movies or different things when it comes to like different types of apocalypse

[01:17:17] [SPEAKER_00]: films that we've talked even talked about getting to an island seems to be something

[01:17:22] [SPEAKER_00]: has been mentioned but not always explored and this film series gave us the you know a glimpse

[01:17:31] [SPEAKER_01]: into seeing what it would be like and then just seeing the amount of these creatures

[01:17:35] [SPEAKER_01]: swarming the city especially after the helicopters are like flying by and giving

[01:17:39] [SPEAKER_01]: announcements and orders and sirens and and kind of almost like hurting them from place

[01:17:45] [SPEAKER_01]: to place in the city so that people can move it was really cool to see yeah because the

[01:17:51] [SPEAKER_00]: helicopters yeah i mean it was the safest way to do it really i guess originally they were

[01:17:58] [SPEAKER_00]: going to have the announcements done in multiple languages like they had recorded

[01:18:03] [SPEAKER_00]: multiple languages but they didn't i don't know if they i didn't notice if they actually went

[01:18:09] [SPEAKER_01]: through with it i don't think so uh get light complaint but barely uh i think they flew a

[01:18:17] [SPEAKER_01]: loose on what sounds attracted the monsters versus the ones that didn't uh it's not a huge

[01:18:22] [SPEAKER_01]: deal the story still holds itself well regardless but there's a lot of i mean because i even think

[01:18:26] [SPEAKER_01]: like when eric pops out of the water yeah what are you doing right there you have got and

[01:18:33] [SPEAKER_01]: she like comes in and just a lot of the like packing things in bags and taking things out

[01:18:37] [SPEAKER_01]: and riding on the sharpies like i feel like a lot of those sounds it's like uh

[01:18:42] [SPEAKER_01]: my first quiet place movie you couldn't be doing you couldn't be doing that

[01:18:46] [SPEAKER_01]: because you had to walk on sand like yeah but there's also a lot more even without the people

[01:18:54] [SPEAKER_01]: so much ambient sound in new york that like yeah there's probably a certain level of decibels

[01:18:59] [SPEAKER_01]: that like cover certain things yeah it's a little easier yeah living in new york during

[01:19:04] [SPEAKER_00]: this type of type of apocalypse i would just be thinking can it rain tomorrow we need some

[01:19:09] [SPEAKER_00]: we need some rain just so that you can actually talk and and exist otherwise you're just

[01:19:17] [SPEAKER_00]: your life is doing nothing i mean you're just quiet all the time so um and that's

[01:19:27] [SPEAKER_01]: that's it other than when they first go down into that subway tunnel what leads to the water

[01:19:32] [SPEAKER_01]: and stuff is i just have a note of that's a big old no-no crawling down the subway

[01:19:37] [SPEAKER_00]: and that's oh god that's a really bad idea

[01:19:48] [SPEAKER_01]: well i almost had a reference to that with the lady out in the street going jonathan

[01:19:53] [SPEAKER_00]: and it's like yeah oh my god that's a really bad idea she's gone that's too late the thing

[01:20:00] [SPEAKER_00]: is you couldn't respond to these things like it was so fast it was almost like oh look

[01:20:07] [SPEAKER_00]: and they're they're already gone before you can even think about it i think um i think we did

[01:20:13] [SPEAKER_00]: it nice i think we've done a good job with this one i was looking so forward to doing this

[01:20:20] [SPEAKER_01]: yeah i really enjoyed this conversation and honestly despite even like little my spiel

[01:20:25] [SPEAKER_01]: which i wanted to get that out of the way at the top so i could be like here are some

[01:20:29] [SPEAKER_01]: thoughts but then definitely as i knew what happened after talking about it and breaking

[01:20:33] [SPEAKER_01]: it down i'm even less worried about that stuff like i definitely enjoy it even more

[01:20:39] [SPEAKER_00]: that much more after talking about it it usually happens yeah like most of the time

[01:20:45] [SPEAKER_00]: i remember going all the way back to when we covered the ritual i was like i don't really

[01:20:52] [SPEAKER_00]: oh god i didn't really like it but we'll cover it yeah which i wasn't even coming into

[01:20:59] [SPEAKER_01]: this going like i didn't really like it like i said it was fine it was enjoyable but now

[01:21:04] [SPEAKER_01]: after breaking down some of those like really like character arcs and emotions and reasons

[01:21:09] [SPEAKER_01]: and purposes and i i do appreciate it a lot more now with that said i'm still gonna say

[01:21:15] [SPEAKER_01]: the first two are better oh yeah i still did overall but this is a very solid

[01:21:21] [SPEAKER_01]: entrance entrance into this you know an installment into this franchise and story

[01:21:26] [SPEAKER_01]: yeah i can't wait to see what comes next absolutely we'll cover it eventually when it happens

[01:21:32] [SPEAKER_01]: i mean i remember that's how i've been doing this is the first when we covered the first

[01:21:35] [SPEAKER_01]: quiet place movie the second one wasn't even out yet so like we've you know what peg it's

[01:21:42] [SPEAKER_00]: funny you should say that because this week is our fourth anniversary of run for your lives

[01:21:53] [SPEAKER_00]: so we have been doing run for your lives for four years that's dope yeah i can't believe it

[01:22:03] [SPEAKER_00]: oh boy feedback phone it is time to shut up and time to listen see what they got to say

[01:22:13] [SPEAKER_01]: all right we do have some feedback this week we've got a good little bit which is

[01:22:18] [SPEAKER_01]: awesome love that we've got multiple feedback pieces to go through which yeah it's a quiet

[01:22:23] [SPEAKER_01]: place so that way it makes sense it's a bigger one that we've done in a little bit we've we've

[01:22:28] [SPEAKER_01]: kind of been pulling at some of the older niche er niche er is that a word i don't know it is

[01:22:34] [SPEAKER_01]: now movies and doing stuff but uh yeah it's a quiet place so i love that we got a little

[01:22:38] [SPEAKER_01]: bit more people coming through so let's get to them daphne why don't you kick it off

[01:22:43] [SPEAKER_00]: all right so i'ma send this one i enjoyed this movie it really kept me on the edge of

[01:22:56] [SPEAKER_00]: know we would be toast in this universe yeah that's how i feel too um my cats would

[01:23:02] [SPEAKER_00]: just be too loud they didn't really acknowledge it in the movie but those of us that are fans

[01:23:07] [SPEAKER_00]: liked the connection to the second movie i remember watching the second movie and wondering

[01:23:31] [SPEAKER_01]: exploration of shock trauma grief and guilt that the film brought out at least for me

[01:23:35] [SPEAKER_01]: i read that frodo was the embodiment of sam's life her joy happiness hope

[01:23:39] [SPEAKER_01]: and frodo's bond with eric means so much more to me now his saving of frodo shows

[01:23:44] [SPEAKER_01]: apart of sam lives on the cancer the monsters they don't win and she never really dies

[01:24:45] [SPEAKER_00]: but failed an attempt to run up the stairs while the last one passed everything including
