Speaker 1 (00:16):
Okay, so we're watching all of the Disney Channel original
movies we can find. Yeah, and there is a real
normally I ask you some random question now, like hey,
when's last time you went on a roller coaster? I
don't have it in me today. I don't have it
in it. The one thing I do I did notice

(00:38):
there is at least so we've talked about the number
of different versions of dcom's back even during the zoog days,
and like early early stuff. You know, a lot of
people say that officially DCOM started in nineteen ninety seven,
but there was a long list of stuff beforehand that
could be considered or would have been considered a DCOM
if such a thing had existed. But there's a real

(01:00):
old jump around the two thousand, two thousand and one,
two thousand and two era of just changing what the
DCOM was. Because the one we watched this week, I
don't even really know what to think or say.

Speaker 2 (01:17):
Frankly, yes, I am also a little lost for words,
to be honest, because it is it. It had one
of the channel's major stars in it, so like there
was a big like she was one of the it
girls on the channel at that time. So it's not

(01:40):
that it did. Yes, Courtney Draper, Yes, she was on
that show. We've talked about it called the Jersey which
they put on, Yeah, put on like a magic It's
a jersey that's like magical and they become like a part.
And that show was huge, like huge it was, and
it was so good. It was one of my favorites.
I really loved it. And it's kind of like the

(02:03):
storyline of this one. It's not just like a micro world.
It's like out of this world, like I don't know,
and not.

Speaker 1 (02:12):
Even kind of in a clever way. I don't know. Well,
I guess, yeah, we just I guess. Let's just get,
let's get let's just chang into it and let's get
let's just do it. Let's just jump.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
Somebody. I don't know, let's just go.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
Well we got this. Welcome back to Magical. Rewind the
show that makes you want to go have your friends,
your PJS and your popcorn and go back to a
time when all the houses were smart, the waves tsunamis,
and not all the movies were this one.

Speaker 2 (02:35):
I'm Wilfredell and I'm Sabrina Bryan.

Speaker 1 (02:38):
Okay, So every few decades a film comes along that
not only wow's audiences, it defines a generation. And this
week we approach one of those films, It's time to Talk.
Two thousand's Stepsister from Planet Weird and of course being facetious.
It debuted on June seventeenth, in the year two thousand,
a film drenched in y two K optimistic fear, and

(02:58):
it's based on the book of the same name by
children's librarian turned author Francis Lance. Lance wrote over thirty books,
many kids' best sellers, but she might be best known
for the Luna Bay Monthly book series, made in collaboration
with HarperCollins and Roxy. The California clothing company, Yes a
clothing company. It was a surf clothing company, I believe, Yes,
a California surf clothing company. She was a surfer herself

(03:19):
who lived in Santa Barbara, so she was perfect fit
for the theme. And in the original Stepsisters from Planet
Weird book, surfing was included and it was obviously switched
out for windsurfing because well, we'll get to that. Sadly,
Lance passed away in nineteen ninety nine from ovarian cancer
at the very young age of fifty two. Stepsister from
Planet Weird was filmed in Australia, a recent trend we've

(03:41):
been running into, but still part of the exclusive club
of dcom's filmed outside of the US, and the movie
was greenlit by Disney and boy did a show just
three weeks before shooting began, putting the cast and crew
on quite a tight timeline and maybe, you know, causing
some plot holes and stuff. All right, okay, all right, now,

(04:02):
this is the first time we run into this, and
I am beyond skeptical that this is true. But in
twenty seventeen, cabletv dot Com analyzed the entire dcom catalog
at the time and utilize Google trends to figure out
the most popular dcoms per state. Yes, that's a thing,
and Stepsister from Planet Weird was the most popular film
in Pennsylvania. Again, I don't believe this at all, but

(04:27):
here are some of the other results from the poll
that they conducted in case you're wondering. Nevada Mom's Got
a Date with a Vampire was their favorite. Hawaii Come On,
Easy One, Johnny Tsunami, New York was Get It Right,
New York was Get a Clue? Oregon Halloween Town High
makes sense Utah High School musical makes sense, and California

(04:48):
was one called the Jenny Project or the Genie Project,
Jenny Project, which Jenny. We don't know that one yet. Okay, Well,
no matter what state you live in, even if you
were fraudulently told it was your favorite movie in penns Calvania,
no matter where you live, you can watch Stepsister from
Planet Weird on Disney Plus. It was actually part of
their launch package and you can launch into it right
now if you want, or you can listen to us

(05:09):
and then see what we got right and what we
got wrong. But either way, we suggest you continue with
caution and only under adult supervision. Sabrina, before it was
said as a podcast episode, did you know anything about
Stepsisters from Planet Weird?

Speaker 2 (05:22):
I didn't. I did not know anything about this one,
this Stepsister.

Speaker 1 (05:27):
I'm not even getting the title right yet. That's how
that's what I thought of it. Okay, Stepsister from Planet Weird. Sorry,
so you did not?

Speaker 2 (05:33):
No, I didn't. And this is like around the time,
like I said, I was auditioning a lot for Disney
Channel stuff, so I was watching the channel a lot,
and I don't know if maybe this one wasn't one
that was put on replay, like like the majority of
them were at the time, you know, just except in Pennsylvania,
except I guess maybe in Pennsylvania. Yeah, so this never
came across my my TV box with my antennis.

Speaker 1 (05:59):
I'm not even an answer the question. I am too.
I can't even answer it if I this or not.
Of course I didn't know what this was. Now keep
away from wind and drink some roop beer because it's
time for the synopsis. When teenager Megan's mom gets engaged,
her new soon to be stepsister, Ariel turns out to
be a bubble based alien refugee hiding on planet Earth.

(06:20):
It's directed by Steve Boyam, a legendary name here on
Magical Rewind since he's the director of some iconic dcoms.
Of course, he's not Daddy Owen, but the ones he's
done include Johnny Tsunami, Motorcross, and a movie that's actually
very similar to this one, Mom's Got a Date with
the Vampires. Did you notice kind of the similarities between
the films a little bit?

Speaker 2 (06:39):
Yes, yeah, yeah, it wasn't surprising to find that not
but not Johnny Tsunami or different Mom's Got a date
with the Vampire. Yeah, I saw some similarities for sure.

Speaker 1 (06:50):
Yeah, well it makes sense because he did Stepsister and
Mom's Got a Date back to back in the same year.

Speaker 2 (06:56):
Wow, so this was you.

Speaker 1 (06:57):
Remember us talking about him. He's kind of a legend
in the world here, especially of dcoms, because he was
a stuntman turned director early, having worked on Apocalypse Now, Predator,
True Romance, and Groundhog's Day. Before moving behind the camera,
I'm having s's to the thing. I think it's just
Groundhog Day. I don't know, before moving the camera. He
also directed the movie You, Me and Dupree and now

(07:18):
works in TV shows like The Boys, Goosebumps, Supernatural and
Criminal Minds and The Cast. Okay, we have a truly
kind of incredible group of actors who are just a
little too old to be playing high schoolers, but great. Nonetheless,
we've got Courtney Draper as you were talking about as
Meg Larson. Courtney is best known to us as Sam
the Mermaid from the d com The Thirteenth Year, the

(07:39):
Barbotsville movie. We always talk about. That's Hall of Fame
status right there on its own, but she also appeared
in almost one hundred episodes of Bold and The Beautiful.
So she was on Bold and Back.

Speaker 2 (07:48):
That's where we worked together.

Speaker 1 (07:49):
Well, oh you worked with her, Okay.

Speaker 2 (07:51):
There you go, yes, on and on the jersey.

Speaker 1 (07:54):
Yeah, okay, that's right. And I was gonna say, and
she's on the jersey. But also in Buffy the Vampire
Slayer CSI Miami Veronica and she has since become an
always working voiceover actor in video games like Kingdom Hearts,
I was in that, BioShock Infinite and Final Fantasy. Sevin
and Tamara Hope plays Aerial Cola. The Canadian actress has
been seen in movies like Crimson Peak and Shall We Dance?
And TV shows like Murdoch Mysteries and The Transporter. She

(08:17):
is a singer as well, and in the band Bruce
Peninsula and her own project, The Weather Station, which just
sounds like a great band. And then we've got Lance's
guest and he's portraying a brand new nominee for best
decom character name of all time. It's It's Cosmo Cola.
Lance is best known as Yes, one of the greatest
films in the history of the world, ever, ever, ever,

(08:38):
and one of the most important movies in my life.
He played Alex Rogan in the nineteen eighty four cult
classic The Last star Fighter. If you haven't seen it,
we Cannot be Friends, as well as Halloween two and
Jaws The Revenge. Okay, fun fact Sabrina, Uh huh. The
actual tagline and this is where I get it from
from Jaws The Revenge was Jaws The Revenge. This time

(08:59):
it's person Oh is it really actually the family down
to the Bahamas to attack them because it killed their mom?
Not even joking.

Speaker 2 (09:11):
Wait, this is the sequel to Jaws.

Speaker 1 (09:13):
This is just Jaws the Revenge. It's like the third one,
the one that was three D. This time it's personal.
This time where it comes from?

Speaker 2 (09:22):
Thank you? I love okay, thank you.

Speaker 1 (09:25):
It's crazy. Now where do we think Cosmo Cola sits
on the ranking of craziest character names? Where where is
he in the Jackal Johnson verse?

Speaker 2 (09:33):
I mean it did, It didn't strike. I mean it
just obviously was a weird name. But because they were
portraying aliens, it didn't like it wasn't like Jackal Johnson
was supposed to be like a real person.

Speaker 1 (09:43):
I agree with you.

Speaker 2 (09:44):
I'm like, yeah, Cosmic Cola was just kind of like
a silly name. Of you know, like what you would think,
like someone would bring into you know, not being a
part of the this.

Speaker 1 (09:56):
World, right, And I'm guessing there was some scene somewhere
in the book or somewhere where when they first land
on Earth he sees a cola machine or something like that.

Speaker 2 (10:03):
And yeah, that would make sense totally. Yeah, especially because
Rupier is such a big thing. And yes, and they
does such a big thing with any.

Speaker 1 (10:11):
The co two and all that stuff. Yeah, and we've
got Christine Hay as the mom Kathy Larson. Christine is
best known as Simon Foster on Head of the Class,
but also appeared in shows like Law and Order, Bull
and Parker Lewis Can't Lose. She's also, it says here,
an Emmy winning environmentalist. And my question is, how does
one win an Emmy for environmentalism?

Speaker 2 (10:31):
Did she do some kind of documentary?

Speaker 1 (10:34):
Would she have one in the one in an Emmy
for being a documentarian, not for being an environment Oh,
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (10:40):
There's so there's so many categories at the Emmys that
don't hit the air, like I mean, it's like, I
don't know, I didn't know.

Speaker 1 (10:49):
I wasn't on camera at all last year and somehow
won two Emmys, So everybody's getting stuff. Kid didn't Could
you really believe it?

Speaker 2 (10:57):
Come on you winning em Absolutely, I would totally believe that.

Speaker 1 (11:01):
What do you mean, No, they kicked me out of
the building. I don't want to know me anyway. They're
not filled with chocolate. I found that out. And let's
talk run time. Stepsister from Planet Weird clocks in at
drum roll, please, but make it a quick one eighty
five minutes. Ah, music to my ears. Though it is
five minutes off the target, it's off the target in
the right direction. So yes, it passes our test with

(11:22):
flying colors staying under ninety and history. Well, thank you.
And if there's any movie that I'm glad it was short,
it was this one.

Speaker 2 (11:30):
I paused it at some point I only had fifteen minutes.

Speaker 1 (11:33):
Ye, yes, yes, I'm almost done. Oh my. Rounding out
the cast, we have Miles Jeffrey is Trevor Larson. He
is also in another dcom that we've watched again. We
just spoke about Mom's Got a Date with the Vampire,
directed by the same guy as this movie, and he
starred in fifteen episodes of Beverly Hills nine two or

(11:54):
zero and then round and everything out. We've got Lauren Maltby,
who's Heather Hartman. She's best known in our world as
Marge in all three of the Xenon movies. So a
low key Disney legend right there. Now. The writing credits
are pretty straightforward. We have the book's author, Francis Lance,
getting an acknowledgment for characters and story, but the teleplay
is credited to Chris Matheson, who's a bit of a

(12:15):
legend when it comes to eighties and nineties movies. His
first script ever was the nineteen eighty nine classic Bill
and Ted's excellent adventure Great Man, your first ever film,
and you go on to write the sequels, Bogus Journey
and Bill and Ted Face the Music, Bill A. Ted's
Bogus Journey is way funnier than it has any right
to be. And the rest of his resume includes Banger

(12:38):
after Banger, Mom and Dad Saved the World, Love It,
The Ellen degenerous rom com Mister Wrong, and a Disney
classic A Goofy movie. So it's safe to say that
this movie is not his best. Okay, let's chill out
in the Sink and Pine over finuwel we need to

(13:00):
getting a stepsister from planet weird right now. We open
up with some fast pumping dance music, only interrupted by
a girl's voice that sternly announces wind. There's nothing else
like it. Keep wind in mind because it's mentioned an
awful lot. And you know what, She's right. It's one
of our co leads, Megan writing in her diary. We
see some windsurfer shredding waves, reminded by our narrator that

(13:22):
this is extreme, another word that comes up over and
over and over again in this movie. It's Megan on
the board, or more specifically, her stunt double, and we
go close up on her face a few times to
pretend it's possible the actress is actually cruising this fast
on a windsurf machine. What is it? Windsurfer board?

Speaker 2 (13:38):
One's actually the few water sports I've never done was windsurfing,
and it looks inredibly hard.

Speaker 1 (13:46):
I tried it once when I was young, and like,
even just lifting up the damn sail was a little
bit heavy. So but you know what, I am good
at one thing, and very good at one thing, and
that's quitting when things are hard. So I never again
very good at that and there's guys and you didn't but.

Speaker 2 (14:02):
You didn't quit on this movie.

Speaker 1 (14:04):
No, I just had to watch it in ninety second chunks.
It took me two weeks. And there's there's then guy
surfer Cutter, someone Meghan seems very impressed by, but I'm
frankly not impressed because while show voting, he wipes out
and Meghan has to save him. Once resituated back on
the board, we get a surreal back and forth between
Cutter and Meghan. He tells her that she quote flatly

(14:26):
rules unquote and asks if she'll be his girlfriend. She
says yes, and then her parents are just there, creepily
standing nearby in the ocean. They announced they're getting back together.
Then her redheaded little brother, Trevor, he pops up and
says he's never gonna act like a freak again. Then,
as if that wasn't enough, the prettiest girls in school appear.
Heather Hartman They're a leader, welcomes Meghan into the popular group.
Then we hear a smattering of applause because Meghan is

(14:49):
actually asleep. This is all in a dream. Trevor rushes
into the bedroom, yelling die elly and die okay, But
movie just started. The siblings walk downstairs together talking about
men in black and getting jiggy with it, so we
know exactly what time this took place, and Megan remembers
when they're all together. We are then transported to an
old beach vacation. It seems her dad, even back then,

(15:10):
was always on the phone, busy with work, and that's
the reason her parents split up. And this guy was
comically on his phone all the time, where it's like, really,
you're gonna sit in your car all beach day and
be It's like, I get they're trying to show that
he works a lot, but it was it was a
bit too much sad, I know, but it was also like,
come on, no nobody does that to that extent. But anyway, my.

Speaker 2 (15:31):
Dad was a real estate agent, and I feel like
there were so many times where he had to Like
calls would happen middle of anything we were doing, and
we're like, h can't you just put it on silent,
like getting so annoyed with it, but but he can't.

Speaker 1 (15:44):
Can't do it. However, Megan's mom, Kathy, seems pretty great.
She's a little distracted since her husband left, but no
one's really blaming her. She serves soup and crackers for breakfast,
which of course is a negative. But she loves windsurfing
and even owns a little windsurfing store, which is a
major positive. But I assume this place doesn't make her
a ton of money. And she's dated a little, but
nothing's worked out. That's Kathy's life in a nutshell. We've

(16:05):
wrapped it all up and now it's cool. Megan is
not in the popular group, but she was for one
week last year because she lied and said she was
related to Jewel. Okay, interesting, but when they found out
she wasn't, she got kicked out. But Megan's friend is
Michelle or Mickey, someone nerdy that she can talk superpowers with,
who is kind of in this movie but not really
in this movie. It was, yeah, they needed to give

(16:27):
her someone to talk to you before they could introduce her. Yeah,
they then want this character in.

Speaker 2 (16:33):
But it was I know, and she was like a
pretty good friend, Like she was straightforward, she was you
know what I mean. She was like a good friend
for her to have. It's sad that they didn't like
continue like that would have been really funny for her
to like meet Ariel and also.

Speaker 1 (16:48):
Know something at the wedding at the end, and she
just kind of wasn't there. Yeah, that was it. But
Megan does want to be in the popular group just
so she can be with Cutter, the most extreme boy
in school. She thinks he's rad, but he's also a
total Dodo brain. And this is also when we realize
they cannot hide that they're filming in Australia. Everyone is

(17:08):
either painfully hiding their accent or just letting it fly
for no real reason. Megan says Cutter doesn't even know
she exists, but he does win surf and visit her
mom's store where she works. Again, he's really really stupid.
There were times it was funny and times it was like, dude,
this is kind of painful to watch.

Speaker 2 (17:25):
Remember, and it made me think of our interview with
Joey Lawrence talking about like the like the cool guy
kind of somewhat having.

Speaker 1 (17:34):
To be.

Speaker 2 (17:36):
Like ditzy ish or something, you know, but like but
very and I was kind of like, this is just
taking that, Like that made sense that interview did so much,
but this is like, holy but the.

Speaker 1 (17:47):
Cue the cute guy. That the cute guy. He's kind
of the antagonists are supposed to be the antagonist in
in Team Beach two. Cute guy, super smart. Yeah, so
it's yeah, it's like, why not do that? But no,
they made this guy, Like how anybody would like this guy? Even?

Speaker 2 (18:02):
Yeah, exactly. That was the thing, like, how is she
have such a big crush on this guy? Guy? Goob yeah,
goobe gooob.

Speaker 1 (18:11):
Also things have been changing. We come to find out
Kathy has met a man, a man named Cosmo Cola.
Trevor heard the name and immediately says he sounds like
an alien from space, which again is quite a revelation
this early in the movie. It's like the opposite of
an m Night Shamalan movie. Kathy met Cosmo while windsurfing.
He was yelling at her from the beach and eventually
just sprinted into the water to save her from drowning

(18:33):
in the waves. But she wasn't drowning at all. Kathy
was just riding the wind, the definition of windsurfing. But
they ended up talking for hours and she loves his
childlike qualities. She says he's from Canada, and let's be honest,
a lot of people do mix up Canadians and alien
So that tracks that was for all our Canadian listeners.
I'm kidding, I love you all up there. You know what, boy,
you know everything that I'm a boot, She says he's

(18:55):
specifically from the Yukon that We then cut to a
picture of yukonzo population low, which Meghan recognizes as an
inhabitable missile range. We also find out this Cosmo character
also has a daughter named Ariel. She's fourteen, the same
age as Meghan. Then we get a montage, and you know,
I love a montage of successful dates for Kathy and Cosmo.
Megan always starts at home and plays her guitar, but

(19:16):
she won't let anyone listen to her music. I also
thought this was gonna be a much bigger part of
the story, and then wasn't. And eventually the big night arrives,
where everyone's finally going to meet Kathy, her kids, Cosmo
and his daughter plan on having dinner together, and Cosmo
has requested hot dogs. I like him already. I love
a good hot dog. Kathy tells Megan it would mean
a lot to her if she just tried to be
nice for one night, because Cosmo makes her happy and

(19:37):
he deserves a chance. Meghan promises that if her mom
likes him, she'll probably like him too. It's very nice.
And then the Nobel rings boom. It's Cosmo totally shot
out of a cannon. He's screaming excitement and spinning Megan
all around. Quite a first impression. Meghan says it was
worse than she could ever have imagined. Trevor rushes up
with his laser gun, asking Cosmo if he's a good
alien or a bad alien. He answers earnestly good but

(19:59):
sometimes bad. Wrestles the boy to the ground. He explains
that his daughter's is still out by the car because
she doesn't like the wind quote unquote weird. Trevor keeps
talking about aliens. Actually, he is yet to have a
line in the movie that doesn't involve accusing her mom's
new boyfriend of being an alien or talking about aliens
or being aliens. And by the way, he's right, he
should work for our government. Kathy volunteers Megan to go

(20:20):
find Ariel, and when she's outside, she can't find her,
but she does see some footprints, only to find Ariel
laying under the car. And that's when we enter a
very fast rewind seeing everything we've seen so far in
the movie passed by quickly. We hear a new narrator.
It's Ariel now talking to her diary. She says she
just doesn't understand Earth, and then we're in her bedroom.
She summons holograms with her hands and talks about how

(20:41):
grotesque she feels in her new body. She also reveals
that she has the same dream every night. She's back
on her home planet of Zirkolon, and once again a
beautiful pink ball of gas floating next to her family
and boyfriend, a boy named Finul. She misses her true
self an essence. This is when I was like, it
is looking down at the water. I was sipping, like

(21:02):
who puts something in this? Because man, it was weird.
But anyway, she understands.

Speaker 2 (21:07):
I did think the hologram part was cool.

Speaker 1 (21:11):
The hologram diary from her hand was great.

Speaker 2 (21:13):
That was really a cool thing. I was like, oh, okay,
and wow, that looks pretty good too.

Speaker 1 (21:19):
I thought the same thing. And then we went to
the planet circle on.

Speaker 2 (21:22):
And she's as a bubble.

Speaker 1 (21:25):
It's such a weird thing.

Speaker 2 (21:26):
Again. You're with the face.

Speaker 1 (21:28):
Yeah, you're making I get you're making up aliens and
they have to be different. But it was so strange.

Speaker 2 (21:34):
It's like a face looks like a bloated glove. It's like, yeah,
like get their gas bubbles. I went, oh no, yeah, I.

Speaker 1 (21:45):
Kind of did too. It's like, what's what's happening? When
I pause?

Speaker 2 (21:49):
How much longer?

Speaker 1 (21:50):
Oh no, I was just like Susan, whatever I took,
it's kicking in. So this though, this is where she understands,
or we find out that she understands that she had
to leave because her dad was a freedom fighter and
his life was in danger. We get some very early
computer graphics here as we see the alien planet and
some of its fighter jets. It's not Tron, obviously, but

(22:11):
it's not I mean, I guess it's not.

Speaker 2 (22:12):
It was, Yeah, it was not. And the idea of
like freedom fighter that kind of eyes kind of like
all right, okay, yeah, the world we can look past
the bubble, yep.

Speaker 1 (22:25):
But looking past the bubble was a tough thing to do. Ariel.
Ariel just never expected she had to leave her planet.
So suddenly she tells the story of her mother's pink
gas orb that was shot out of the sky by
the enemies and the rest of her family barely escaped
to Earth. She does admit that Earth has an abundance
of the one substance or specie needs, which is carbon dioxide.
She takes a drink of soda, forcing her to speaking

(22:46):
about gyrer alien lice, but now she wants to.

Speaker 2 (22:51):
She's like that alien.

Speaker 1 (22:53):
She takes a drink of soda, forcing her to smoke,
but now she wants to know more about Earth, so
she turned to her neighbor, a major cat lady psychic
named Serena Sue. Serena is a yoga teacher type who
says she knows that Ariel is different because she doesn't
feel like she belongs there. Serena thinks that a past life,
Ariel was a cow hand who was crushed by a cow.
But none of this matters anyway. Ariel believes her life

(23:14):
has been overrun by dreariness and dread. And on that note,
we're in the Cola family's new home and it looks
like a fourth grader designed it. There's a little rocket
ride at barber's chair, a Knight's armor Cosmo is painting
a frame around a mirror. It's like they're supposed to
be very childlike. Ariel just doesn't want to be there
and Cosmo admits he misses their home too. He wishes
he was floating around as gas expanding in the heat.

(23:35):
Ariel asks why they can't just go home then, so
Cosmo reminds her he'd be in prison forever in a
frozen cube. They're on Earth to escape and take advantage
of the wonderful possibilities like becoming a ventriloquist. I'm not
making any of this up. People, if you're listening along
and haven't seen the movie, I'm not just throwing out words.
This is what's happening. This is the movie we're walking through. Okay,

(23:55):
not making this like.

Speaker 2 (23:57):
He literally brought out the doll and act quickly.

Speaker 1 (24:02):
But about this part of the movie, I was like,
you know.

Speaker 2 (24:04):
It's a random throne.

Speaker 1 (24:07):
Like it's like, seriously, no, no joke. At this point
of the movie, I was like, huh, you know, it's
not a bad movie, double teamed. So it's like, I
gotta watch that again. So while Ariel complains Cosmo is
selling diamonds online, a mineral that is apparently abundant back
home and worth a ton on Earth, is he getting

(24:28):
shipments of diamonds? Did he when he had to flee
last minute did he also happen to have hundreds of thousands,
if not millions of dollars worth of diamonds on him?
Because I don't I don't know how he's getting I
maybe there's still some connection to the planet, because.

Speaker 2 (24:44):
Yeah, I don't know. Yes, I don't know where they
come from. I don't know if this is if this
is Disney doing it again and making the diamonds that
you can get now that aren't like I don't know,
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (24:57):
The zirkulon diamonds. How is he getting them? Did he
flee with these circle lot diamonds? How do you know
they'd be worth money on Earth if they were, if
they're that abundant in his planet? So many questions. So yes,
it's and.

Speaker 2 (25:09):
Just and it also never comes back now.

Speaker 1 (25:13):
That there are parents parent millionaires.

Speaker 2 (25:15):
Yep, yeah, they're like they have like just millions of
dollars and it just like never comes back.

Speaker 1 (25:20):
Ariel herself though, just wants to communicate with finuwel back home.
But he's the son of the emperor, so that would
get her dad in a lot of trouble. Who they're
trying to throw in the extra level of and his
dad's bay. Then Cosmo takes a swig of soda and Sabrina,
what did you think of his alien voice?

Speaker 2 (25:35):
I mean, was that them doing something electronically too?

Speaker 1 (25:38):
Yeah, that was definitely they weren't.

Speaker 2 (25:39):
Like doing that voice right. That's the only real thought
I had towards it.

Speaker 1 (25:44):
I am, however, going to need you to do an
impression of.

Speaker 2 (25:48):
Oh my god, no, I can't.

Speaker 1 (25:50):
Sound like, come on, take us a roop here, what
it sounds like? Come on?

Speaker 2 (25:55):
It was like like gods will takes a swig of soda?
What eating of his alien voice? I thought it was
just like stupid, like there are some of this stuff
I had just seen for the last five minutes.

Speaker 1 (26:08):
That was not bad.

Speaker 2 (26:09):
That was not bad. I just get really nervous around
the god of freaking voiceovers out of nowhere.

Speaker 1 (26:17):
I'm telling you, that's not me. But that's there's plenty better,
plenty plenty better. Yes. Cosmo climbs a tree outside in
Ariel can't stop talking about Fanuel until a little gusta
wind picks up and she darts inside, completely afraid. Her
dad swears it can't hurt her, but he's also a
little bit scared himself. Eventually, he sprints inside, yelling we
fear the wind to his neighbor. I think literally, anyone

(26:39):
who meets the Cola family is going to think their
aliens are not really hiding it. Well, so Trevor wasn't
all that perceptive. It's pretty easy to notice. Back inside
the Cola house, a bathroom sink overflows and a gaseous
bubble floats on the top of the water. Ariel is
stuck inside, crying out to Fanuel. Why must he be
the son of the emperor? They're like the historic story
of Glabba and Gronka to star cross bubble. She promises

(27:01):
they will meet again. She then interpretive dances to what
seems to maybe be her planet's national anthem, while singing
to it again. I'm not making any of this up.
This is the movie. The next morning, Cosmo tells his
daughter about meeting Kathy in the ocean and how he
was impressed she wasn't afraid of the wind. He's very
into her, but Ariel is obviously hurt thinking of her mother.
Cosmo assures her he will never forget her mom, but

(27:22):
they live on Earth now and they need to make
a life here. Mommy wouldn't want them to be unhappy
and alone, and tonight's the night they'll visit the Larson home.
He guarantees a wonderful time, but Ariel reminds him the
night went horribly, horribly wrong. We're back in the Larson
front yard with Ariel hiding from the wind. Still, Megan
informs her that the wind has died down. When they
re enter the house, the family dog barks at Ariel
and then again cue the little brother, Trevor blast in

(27:45):
his toy laser gun and accusing Ariel of being an
alien kid could have ended the movie in ninety seconds.
Ariel panics and grabs root beer and then heads for
the bathroom. Kathy forces Megan to check on her, and
when she opens the door, Ariel is drenched. She claims
she fell in the sink, so Meghan takes her off
to her bedroom to dry her off and change her
into a very y two K baggy shirt. Ariel chugs
another bottle of root beer and accidentally exposes her alien voice.

(28:07):
This is all freaking out Megan, who tries to dry
her off for the blow dryer, but the wind again
terrifies Ariel, and if this can't get any weirder, Kathy
then walks in and announces dinner's ready. At the dinner table,
Cosmo is completely covering his hot dog and dozens of
condiments and chomping away, but Aerro just sits and angst
she doesn't like food. Megan jokes she's on the root
beer diet, and now Ariel considers her the enemy. But

(28:30):
then the unthinkable happens. Cosmo and Kathy announce they're engaged.
Seems like they went on six dates and now they're engaged.
They haven't known each other long and dinner isn't going well,
but they're following their hearts. Everyone is surprised, but Megan
waits to crash out until she's alone with her mom.
Later that night, she calls Cosmo the freak of all time,
like some sort of clown. Trevor actually digs them, but

(28:50):
Meghan can't believe this guy is about to be their stepfather.
And while she's at it, Megan calls Ariel whacked. How
could she have fallen in the sink and why is
she afraid of a blow dryer? Trevor defends he thinks
she's really pretty, which is another theme we're about to
get hit over the head with over and over and
over again. Kathy swears to Megan she would never marry
someone that wasn't right for their family. Cathy suggests she
makes music with Ariels since they both like to sing.

(29:11):
Megan's not hearing it, and also Trevor again suggests she's
an alien. Kathy reveals to Meghan that Ariel lost her
mom a few years ago and she hasn't had it easy.
So Megan agrees to take it easy on Ariel, but
can't believe she's being enrolled in high school tomorrow, And

(29:33):
so we're cutting to the next morning, where Megan and
Ariel are biking a school together. Ariel is on training
wheels and wearing a football helmet like a bit of
a goob, or, as Trevor would call it, an alien.
She blames being out of practice, but then crashes and
performs a pretty dramatic flip over the handlebars above the
bike rack in front of the entire student body. How
unbelievably mortifying, But then apparently it wasn't, because to Megan surprised,

(29:57):
two cute skater boys approach. They want to know who
the girl is. Actually, a lot of the school is
very interested in this new gorgeous transfer in unique clothes
who apparently can't ride a bike, and that's turned on
the entire student body. So now there's the new issue
with having Ariel as a stepsister. She makes Megan feel inferior,
so went from thinking she's weird to just feeling inferior.

(30:17):
Even Mikey wants to hang out with Ariel, who has
successfully convinced the school she is a visionary who wears
a lot of layers to protect her essence. And then
we're in math class. The teacher calls on Meghan for
a volume of a swimming pool, but she has no
clue how to answer, But guess who does Ariel? She
knows to the point zero one kilometer and is instantly
admired for her brain. And now the school is full
of rumors. Ariel has a perfect iQue. She dated Prince William,

(30:38):
she tutored Bill Gates, and Megan doesn't get it. In reality,
Ariel is like an alien. And yes, there is now
another child calling it out. How would adults not think
something was up? Also, this time she says it's like
she's from planet Weird. So that's how we got the title.
Ariel is already at the popular table and Heather, the
cool girl, is all over her. The popular girl say

(30:58):
they wish Ariel was their stepsister. Ariel continues to wow
the school by solving complicated math problems and playing piano perfectly.
That afternoon, Ariel makes her way to the restroom, with
Meghan and a teacher following close behind. They spy the
new student holding a bubble in her hands and talking
to it like it's Finul, her long lost boyfriend. But
rather than cause alarm, the teacher finds Ariel to be
a deep poet. This is Megan's absolute nightmare. Teacher's lover,

(31:21):
and kids at school are already dressing in multiple layers
and talking about their essence. She's starting a trend. She
opens a door and comes out, and the entire school
is wearing pink and all that kind of stuff. And
it's her first day. Where did they get all the
clothes exactly?

Speaker 2 (31:35):
It's like, she says, it's sixth period or seventh period.
It's like, what, what weird? Did they just have all
these random clothes to layer on? I mean they're wearing
like three layers each.

Speaker 1 (31:46):
Yeah, it makes absolutely no sense with whatever the hell
is going on there. I didn't get it.

Speaker 2 (31:51):
Even yeah, well it's just too extreme. That was just
kind of crazy.

Speaker 1 (31:56):
Yeah it was I get what they were doing, but
they should have done that gradually over time.

Speaker 2 (31:59):
So why is this teacher following them into the bathroom?

Speaker 1 (32:03):
It was so odd and then just sitting there and
being like she's like a poet. Wait, what what's happened?

Speaker 2 (32:08):
The hell is happening? It was why this movie?

Speaker 1 (32:11):
You know what this movie was was just a series
of strange beats. It was like one strange beat after
the next strange beat after the next strange beat. Yes,
what's happening now?

Speaker 2 (32:20):
And then the beats just like went away. It wasn't
like there's only one and I will say it that
comes back. That actually ended up being funny the second
time it came back, like this little beat that they had.
But other than that, it was like a moment and
then gone, yeah, and that was it. That was really
except for I guess the blow dryers at the end,

(32:40):
Like that's really it.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
I know that Kathy is now forcing Megan to teach
Ariel how to win surf, which seems like a bad
idea because one of them is afraid of the wind.
But when Megan pushes back her mom calls it good
for bonding, then doubles down by calling Cosmo her soulmate.
Megan agrees to teach Ariol how to win surf, as
long as Kathy never says soulmate again. Deals struck Now

(33:05):
out on the beach, Megan wants to show Ariel how
it's done, and Ariel reminds her new tutor that she's
scared of the wind. No one seems to care, despite
the fact that the sport literally has the word wind
in it. And while out catching wind, Megan looks back
at the beach and sees Cutter Cutter, Oh Cutter, chatting
it up with Ariel. The jealousy causes a total wipeout
and a declaration of war. Then we're thrown into another

(33:27):
immediate rewind. We're taken all the way back. You've got
to keep watching this movie over and over again. We're
taking all the way back to the moment where Ariel
flipped over her handlebars, and now she's the narrator talking
to her diary. Okay, good idea.

Speaker 2 (33:40):
I like that.

Speaker 1 (33:42):
I like rewinding it. And then you do it from
somebody else's point of view. That's a good idea. That's
a clever way to do this. This was not done well,
but it was a clever like I would like to
see this in a better version of this movie. Yeah,
that makes sense because it's a cool it's a cool
visual device.

Speaker 2 (34:00):
The girls worlds are getting like flipped upside down and
you're watching how they aren't seeing each other's struggles, and
like I do, the concept is really a cool way
to do that.

Speaker 1 (34:11):
It's sure very clever what they're doing.

Speaker 2 (34:13):
Just did it really amplifier like level up the movie
in anything?

Speaker 1 (34:20):
It was a clever idea used in the in the
wrong movie. Yeah, it's it's like they put this really
cool new seat belt bracket in a Ford Pinto and
it's like, well, that was the wrong place to put that.
That's a weird analogy, but it works. Okay, we're taking
all the way back to the moment where Ariol flipped
over her handlebars, and now she's the narrator talking to
her diary. Then we're back at the popular table for lunch,

(34:41):
and Ariel, who finds them all to be useless and stupid,
is living a nightmare. Also, other kids have been mimicking
Ariel's big bike crash all day, cheering each other on,
proving that absolutely everything she's done now is considered revolutionary.
So even the crashing, the kids are like trying to
imitate the strain.

Speaker 2 (34:57):
Yeah, the ones that we saw during this sea though,
we're some pretty epic crash they Yeah.

Speaker 1 (35:05):
They had some good crashes.

Speaker 2 (35:06):
It was fucked.

Speaker 1 (35:08):
Yeah. We are now back on the beach. While watching
Megan windsurf, she worries that the wind will destroy her
new mentor. She walks into the water to help, even
fully submerging herself at one point. That's when Cutter introduces himself,
drenched in her street clothes. She explained she intended to
rescue Megan Larson, and he quickly starts flirting. He admits
he likes her body, and then she wishes she was
gas and crazy enough. He immediately asked to be her boyfriend,

(35:31):
but this time it's not a dream. He just impulsively
and love bombingly starts hitting on her, and she's an alien.
Ariel says. She finds him vapid and shallow, and he
understands about half those words, and that's when Meghan angrily
returns to pull Ariel away. Ariel agrees the clag has
really hit the drawn now stomping off. Meghan says she's
onto Ariel. She's just trying to come in and take

(35:51):
everything Megan wants, but Ariel says she doesn't want cutter,
she just wants to go home. Ariel hates these strange
creatures and the planet's lack of dignity for bubbles, just
like Meg. She doesn't want her parents to get remarried,
and so an unlikely alliance is born. When their parents
leave for a date that night, Megan and Ariel agree
to babysit Trevor and immediately send him to bed to
make a plan. They decide first thing they have to

(36:12):
do is convince their parents they become best friends, so
they take some polaroids together then sing a duet about friendship. Okay,
so it honestly doesn't sound too bad, and at least
the singing kind of comes out again, which is good.
They'll also practice what they'll tell their parents about how
now that their BFFs and making cookies together, everything's wonderful
and their evil plan has begun. Later that night, after
they return from a date, Kathy attempts to read her

(36:33):
new love some poetry, but Cosmo immediately spots a spider
on the wall. He's very concerned, and worse, when she's
hurt by the interruption, he just grabs the remote quickly
and watches some Hollywood squares. We also get some real
Disney synergy here, with a scene from The Lion King
quickly shown on the screen before Kathy turns it off.
If he doesn't like hearing her read poems, then why
would he want to marry her. He assures her he

(36:53):
loves how fun and free and qute she is, but
she wants to know how he feels about her mind.
He says he's never seen her mind, and then the
fight escalates. They call each other shrill and inconsiderate, and
she storms out, noticing the girl spying on them on
the way out. That night, Ariel sits in bed again,
controlling holograms with her finger. One fight did not end
the engagement, but she announces the next move is hers.

(37:14):
She runs her lines in the bathroom the next day,
tick now talking to a bubble with her dad's head
in it. She says now that she's besties with Megan,
who told her a secret. Kathy only acted the way
she did because she was testing him. She needs to
know that he can be a real man. We cut
to Cosmo and Kathy having lunch, and now Cosmo is
dressed like a cowboy, saying he'll take care of this
little lady, except on Sundays, when he'll be watching football.

(37:36):
He also barks at the waiter and orders a big steak,
but it's a pizza parlor, so this is not working
out the way he wants. The girls watch him afar
as Cosmo pulls out the ventriloquist dummy again, now dressed
exactly like him before. Kathy can't even say a word.
Cosmo sweeps her up to a dance. He's throwing her around,
trying to lead, but Kathy has had enough. Cosmo admits
he's only been acting like this because she thought she
wanted him to, and they quickly figure out who's been

(37:57):
behind this entire thing. The plan has been foiled. Kathy
and Cosmo are furious at their daughters, reprimanding them in
the parking lot. Ariel breaks out in tears. She's disgraced
her family for selfish reasons. Kathy attempts to console her,
which makes Megan even matter, and again Trevor announces that
she's an alien. No one listens to this kid, he
might as well be in another family, so who cares,
Let's just everybody save Trevor for oh that night. Ariel

(38:22):
can't take this any longer. She's used some sort of
weird alien tool kind of thing to signal for Noule
to come save her, giving away her location, something her
father begged her never to do. The message shoots out
of her window and right up into the sky. Over
in Meghan's bedroom, she's prepping for plan be but now
worried if she's even doing the right thing. She admits
that Cosmo has been growing on her and it's not

(38:43):
even really Ariel's fault that everyone mistakes her weirdness for coolness.
But the next morning at school, where everyone is still
of course idolizing Ariel, Meghan has a new plan. They
need to make their parents fall in love with somebody else,
even though they admit that Cosmo and Cathy seem pretty
perfect for each other. But still, Megan suggests her dad,
and Ariel mentions the spiritual neighbor Serena sue. So the

(39:03):
plan is set. They'll throw a party to say sorry
for their behavior and invite everyone, including these possible love interests.
Then chemistry itself will just take over. Later, Meghan finally
tells Trevor he was right, Cosmo is an alien, and
this poor kid finally feels a little bit vindicated here
that Megan goes one step further and says he's a
bad alien. Trevor doesn't believe her, but Meghan swears she's

(39:24):
telling the truth and shows him a book titled by
Plan to take Over the World and Step One Eat Trevor.
He's immediately terrified and ready to do whatever it takes
to help. I think at this point I paused it,
walked away for a little while. Ye are sandwich, cookie,
have some root beer? If that were watch Elzzie McGuire

(39:46):
movie again, double teams everything we could do. This was
you know, even as I'm reading it, this was a
slog this movie. I'm sorry, this was a lot to
get through this movie. It was yeah, okay, so yes.
After seeing Trevor, Trevor's of course immediately terrified and ready

(40:08):
to do whatever it takes to help. And now we
are just minutes away from everyone arriving to the party,
including her dad and Kookie. Serena Soue. Ariel gets ready
by putting different foods into a blender, she says, because
it all just ends up in the same intestinal track anyway,
which is, you know, a pretty good point. And then
the doorbell rings. It's Serena Soue, who thinks the dog
used to be Mickey Mantle. And also Trevor peaks his
head out. Megan has banished him to his room, and

(40:29):
then Cosmon Kathy returned from a successful day of windsurfing.
Cosmo actually liked it. Not sure how because he still
hates Win, but sure. The couple notices party decorations, and okay,
do they hate wind? Like all they do is float
around their own planet? So do they hate win because
they can't like it blows them away? Why do they

(40:51):
hate wind so much? Because wind blows a gas away
and it'll pop a bubble, right, Like that's the point.

Speaker 2 (40:56):
I guess that's what it is, because that's where we're
getting to, right Like at the end, I I they
just she just acts like she was just terrified. I
don't know, I don't know, Okay, it was It wasn't
really ever actually explained why where the fear of wind

(41:17):
comes from at all? Yeah, but it's weird because they
do float around, So is.

Speaker 1 (41:24):
It just because they're gas so because their gas like
wind blows gas away.

Speaker 2 (41:28):
I mean, but it doesn't up when there's it doesn't
up in there when they're floating their ozone or wherever
they're at, floating and flying, and when they're fine. Yeah, yeah, okay,
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (41:41):
Okay. Well, the couple notices party decorations and Serena, who
also has real alien vibes by the way, and Kathy
immediately figures out the girls are up to something. But
then the doorbell rings again. This time it's Megan's dad, Fred.
Fred's back. Thank god he put the phone down long
enough to be back in the movie. Kathy's surprised to
see him, but he still has work to do. He
just came to pick the kids up until them back
to his place, not actually attend the party, And as

(42:03):
the plan is falling apart in front of them, Megan
thinks on her toes. She tells her dad that Trevor's
sick and needs help. She rushes him upstairs, whi Trevor
is totally playing along with the lie. He's laying in bed,
coughing and yelling to the sky Elizabeth, I'm coming to
join you, which was the funniest part of the entire movies,
but he eventually breaks character and asks his dad, if
you and mom get back together, can I still play

(42:23):
with Cosmo? Sometimes? Megan can't believe what she's hearing. She
quickly changes the subject, begging her dad to stay for dinner.
He agrees, but nothing's going according to plan. We're now
down in the kitchen. Cosmo tells Serena she's full of
crap when she predicts he died in the Civil War
and was a raccoon in prior lives. Then Fred returns downstairs.
He's rushing to get back to work. He meets Cosmo,
who's eating pudding with his hands. When he introduced himself

(42:43):
as Kathy's fiance, Fred doesn't get it. When did this happen?
Cathy says they're happy together, So Fred goes looking for
an ant acid. He bumps into Serena sue on the way,
and she suggests instead of an ant acid, he needs
harmony and in the real opposite is a track turn
of events. They immediately hit it off. Now to dinner table.
The undeniable connection between looney Serena and workaholic Fred continues.
She wants to cleanse his aura, which is probably a

(43:05):
euphemism for doing things to his junk. Megan tries to
sabotage her dad and Serena by spilling the multi entre
soup arial made all over them, but instead of everyone
getting mad like she planned, Cosmo responds by spilling the
soup on himself in camaraderie, and that turns into an
all out Seltzer war with adults spraying each other and laughing.
And that's when I was like, oh my god, are
they really just throwing in a food fight or seltzer fight? Now?

Speaker 2 (43:27):
Like what is just out of nowhere? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (43:29):
Just out of nowhere?

Speaker 2 (43:32):
I know. And yeah, I honestly also don't understand what
would make them I mean, I know wind is a
part back to these rules that I'm trying to trying
so hard to figure out. Because she goes in, how
does she like change form into going into the sink
and becoming the bubble? Is it from water?

Speaker 1 (43:52):
Like?

Speaker 2 (43:52):
Water is what make her makes her do that? Well?

Speaker 1 (43:55):
No, because then because then it was spraying each other
and they can win, sir.

Speaker 2 (44:00):
So I was thinking that water was a part of
the Nope, Oh yeah, and they both went into the waters. Yeah,
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (44:08):
I think they turn into the bubbles when they want to, because.

Speaker 2 (44:13):
Oh, I just think is the answer, because they.

Speaker 1 (44:15):
Can't because they didn't explain any of this. So, yes,
we're in a water fight for no reason now, and
Ariel's had enough. She sprints to the bathroom, and when
Meghan catches up, she's already a bubble in the sink.
The two girls scream at the sight of each other,
and Meghan runs back to her mom and the guests.
She reveals that Ariel is just a blob, and once
a drenched Aarrol walks back into the dining room, Meghan

(44:35):
leans more into it, calling her an alien, and then,
in one of the most abrupt transitions in dcom history,
maybe even in film history, we jump right to a
doctor's office where a therapist is talking to and blaming Meghan.
He says she's acting in fear of change and the
alien is actually her and as long as the marriage
is what Kathy wants, meant she has to go through

(44:56):
with it. Who is this therapist? What type of a
transition was it? What the hell is happening? I was like,
if he in the middle just said you're the alien?
Threw a pietor I would have been like, okay, like I,
that's that's fine, that's tracks that tracks like it, just
none of it. It's such a weird movie. It's such
a weird and.

Speaker 2 (45:16):
Then pulls the mom in and says, oh, no, she's
fine and she needs to get married. It's okay to
get married.

Speaker 1 (45:22):
He's like, you have to get married. He says, you must.

Speaker 2 (45:24):
Uh, okay, the therapist.

Speaker 1 (45:31):
So strange. Yeah, has anybody actually checked this guy's license?

Speaker 2 (45:34):
Yeah, that's not real on his wall at all.

Speaker 1 (45:37):
And so if the transitions couldn't get any more abrupt, yep,
making up a word any more abrupt.

Speaker 2 (45:43):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (45:43):
It's another very jarring cut, and it's a day of
the wedding and Kathy is putting on her Gownikes, that
was fast. Kathy promises Megan that this is all gonna
work out, but Megan reminds her Cosmo is an alien.
Now she's all on board with the alien stuff. Kathy
assures her once they're married, he'll become a citizen, and
Megan asked, one last time, is there anything she can
do to stop the marriage. Cathy says she's thought about
it long and hard, and even talk to that weird therapist.

(46:05):
Cosmo makes her happy. If she thought anything her daughter
said was real, she wouldn't marry him. They admit they
love each other and embrace, but we see a big
tear rolling down Megan's cheek. The tear then turns into
a tiger, which attacks half the party. I'm kidding, but
if that happened, you'd be like, yeah, okay, that makes sense.

Speaker 2 (46:21):
So that's that's right.

Speaker 1 (46:22):
I'm just seeing where everybody's still with us. Now at
the wedding, Ariel is nowhere to be found. Cosmo tries
to cover her by saying she needed a moment of
meditation to collect herself. But she's in the bathroom trying
one last time to talk to Finel, and then a
cute boy walks in. It's phenoal. She's relieved to see him,
but he demands she get no closer to him. Physical
proximity makes him sick. Now, I was like, Nikes, that

(46:44):
was ABRUPTO.

Speaker 2 (46:45):
I know it was another This is another rule of
this other planet that we didn't get explained.

Speaker 1 (46:52):
Because they've been hugging as father and son, our father
and daughter and all this kind of stuff. Obviously, the
physical stuff is fine. With them, so they're not allowed
to touch. It was very She explains they have to
leave fast. But then Finul's evil emperor dad arrives and
doesn't look anything like an alien. He looks like an
extra in a Mafia movie. Yet he's here to arrest Cosmo.
He commands Ariel to take him to her dad, but

(47:12):
then Serena Sue accidentally walks in and the emperor laser
freezes her into ice. Okay, so, A, what did you
think of the effect? And B is this movie just
completely off the rails at this point?

Speaker 2 (47:23):
Yes? Yes, I even was just like I mean, even
back at this time early two thousands, walking into a
room like a young girl's room that she's supposed to
be in, you know that this young girl's going to
be there, and seeing an older man that you don't
know and in a teenage boy that you don't know
instantly is like a flare Like I think it would,

(47:45):
it's not she and she literally says, oh, sorry, what
I'm sorry?

Speaker 1 (47:50):
Was I interrupting you?

Speaker 2 (47:51):
I would be like, oh who are you? Are you? Okay?
What's going on in here? That's that's the question.

Speaker 1 (48:01):
But no, apparently, because maybe she thinks good of everybody
because she's that.

Speaker 2 (48:05):
But it is looney Looneyville. But like I mean, I.

Speaker 1 (48:10):
Don't know Looneyville. Uh yeah, the whole it's just off
the rails this one, I mean really really off the
rails this week.

Speaker 2 (48:19):
What did you think about this effect?

Speaker 1 (48:20):
It was like it was like, again with all the
going on beforehand, if they turned her into bubbles and
then used her to scrub the floor would be like
all right, Like I just none of it made sense.

Speaker 2 (48:32):
So all of it made like, now you can freeze people, like, yeah,
well we knew powers, like the powers.

Speaker 1 (48:39):
They said that was what he would be if he
went back there. That's how he'd be in prisoned. Is
they freeze you forever?

Speaker 2 (48:46):
Okay, so he's got that.

Speaker 1 (48:48):
Okay, he's got a freeze ray. And I guess if
you gas the bed. They're trying to throw science in
the bad the way that you would trap gases by
freezing it turning into a solid. So that's what they're showing.

Speaker 2 (48:57):
But but looney villain Serena.

Speaker 1 (49:01):
Is not getting she's a meatbag, so I don't know
what that's all we are is a bunch of meatbags.
So yeah, I but it was like okay, and again
the effect was fine. It was just it was the
ninetieth thing on my list of weird stuff in this movie,
so I was like, fine, okay. The Emperor says he
hates humans, but Ariel stands up for them. She says

(49:24):
they have warmth, kindness, and bravery inside, but her dad
doesn't care. He still goes off to find Cosmo with fnuol,
making sure she doesn't leave the room. Meanwhile, a delivery
man with eighty two cases of root beers arrived at
the party, and Cosmo and Trevor leave to help him
carry it all in, and then Cutter arrives. For some reason.
He's happy to be at the wedding, but admits he'd
rather be windsurfing. Kathy needs Megan to go find Ariel,
so Cutter joins her, and the Emperor is still by

(49:46):
the way. Cutter's there, her best friend is, and the
Emperor is still on the hunt for Cosmo, one wedding
guest at a time. He eventually stops a Cutter who
isn't an alien, but does wonder if some nearby chips
are fat free. And when Meghan finally makes to Ariel,
she's startled by the frozen Serena su and then locked
in by Finuel. Ariel tells her the Emperor's arrived to
kill her father. She admits their aliens, and they escape

(50:07):
to avoid political oppression the only state on Earth because
her dad fell in love with Kathy. Megan immediately realizes
how hard this must have been for Ariel, which seems
like something that maybe she should have realized when she
found out that her mom died. Yeah, you think. Although
Megan hasn't been much help so far, Ariel tells her
that she can help now. Then, led by a grunting Emperor,

(50:27):
Cutter is pushed into the room. The Emperor says he
doesn't have time for these kids. He needs to find
Cosmo at this party asap, and so, once again outside,
Cathy has no idea who this uninvited stranger is at
her wedding, reveals Cosmo is out front getting the root beer,
and then that leads him right to the groom, who
has Trevor on his shoulders. The Emperor asses, Arch Nemesis,
are you ready to pay for your crimes? He then

(50:47):
holds up the laser gun, which excites little Trevor. He
thinks it's a toy. Cosmo tells the boy that he
and his friend really like to play hide and seek,
so he should count to one hundred and they'll come
find him, which is technically the opposite of hide and seek.
You don't want to find them after you hope to
not he found, So okay, The boy leaves and Cosmo
slowly walks away with his captor. Back in the room
with Finuel, the girls are begging him to let them go.

(51:07):
Cutter offers Fernul a mint, and the alien likes it.
It bonds him to cut her for some reason. They
quickly become bros, and Cutter admits he thinks Meghan is
hotter than arial just out of nowhere and then right
just right there, and as I keep is like I
like the blown hair part, Like what the hell is happening?
And then drops like go bad have it?

Speaker 2 (51:26):
Just like I like the blonde I like better than.

Speaker 1 (51:29):
The brown hair better She hunh yeah, so weird. And
then Meghan has an idea. She praises Fanuel's power and
wonders how he has any free time for hobbies like
windsurfing or skating. Cutter even suggests mountain biking off a
ledge into a river and then floating down the rapids.
All these extreme sports sound awesome to Fnul. Cutter also
praises the eighteen different types of potato chips on Earth

(51:52):
because freedom of choice rules. It's the exact opposite of
what Finul experiences on his planet from his freedom. Hating dad.
Now Nuwel is starting to get it, so Cutter and
everybody else suggests that he stand up to his father,
and eventually he agrees and they all break out of
the room, which again seem to happen very quickly.

Speaker 2 (52:09):
But also, how was he holding them hostage in this room?

Speaker 1 (52:13):
He said, you can't open the door.

Speaker 2 (52:20):
No, there's no, there was no nothing, just was keeping
him in the room. I'm keeping them in their room.

Speaker 1 (52:28):
The whole movie is just no, it's just no.

Speaker 2 (52:32):
No.

Speaker 1 (52:34):
Back out in front, the Emperor has opened a portal
for Cosmo to return home. He sentenced him an Ariel
to be frozen forever, and then without any warning, he
freezes Cosmo just then Fanuel and Meghan arrives. She doesn't
freak out at all when she sees her frozen soon
to be stepdad, but instead just tells the Emperor to
let him go, and then right before he shoots Megan
Fanuel jumps in front of her. The human Shield demands change,

(52:55):
but his dad explains the price for change is eternal freezing.
And just as this tense standoff gets good, outruns Aerial.
She's brought a handful of blow dryers and yells, don't
mess with my family, dude. They all try to melt
him with hot air from the from the hair dryers
that out not plugged. Are they not plugged in? I couldn't.

(53:18):
I looked, I couldn't tell if they were plugged in,
but it's like, no, no, They've got four hair dryers
from fifteen feet away.

Speaker 2 (53:24):
Yeah, from where would they even be plugged in? And
who extension chords? There was nothing And even there's one
shot towards the very end where you can see one
of them. I can't remember what character it is where
it just doesn't matter a cord that's just there the ground.

Speaker 1 (53:42):
There you go. Also, who has four hair dryers in
their house? That which is like, again, the least of
my problems with this. Ugh. Yeah, so okay, don't don't
mess with my family, dude. And they try to melt
him with hot air. It seems like he's in pain
as he turns into a bubble and floats a few

(54:03):
feet off the ground. Out back, the wedding's been held
up by Cosmo and the kids. Just as they realize
the blow dryers are not killing the bubble Emperor. Instead,
he actually looks scarier than ever, and right is he's
about to attack, Little Trevor shows up with a leaf
blower that does do the trick, and he blasts him
until he bursts. This also unfreezes Cosmo, who rushes into
the backyard to get married. Now that doesn't do it.

(54:23):
It does the trick. He blasts him until he bursts,
and then Finuel unfreezes Cosmo, who rushes into the backyard
to get married. They make it just in time, but
Cathy says she would have waited forever. The couple gets married,
only interrupted once by Fred's work phone, who is of
course in attendance with his new girlfriend Serena, but still
the same guy as he was before.

Speaker 2 (54:41):
Then.

Speaker 1 (54:42):
At the reception, Ariel is slow dancing with Cutter, and
Meghan is cozied up to Fanuel, who apparently now is
okay with touching a little old fashioned partner swap. There
you go, Megan wishes Finuel didn't have to leave, but
he promises he'll return after he makes some positive changes
to his home planet. Then the party picks up and
everyone's having a blast. Ariel explains to her diary she
thought her life was over when she came to Earth,

(55:02):
but instead it's just beginning. She has a new boyfriend,
a stepmother, and a new best friend. So this hotty,
most popular girl in school, who's the smartest person in
the world, is with cutter. Megan tells her diary that
she learned a lot and now there's always room at
the popular table. We see her welcome the popular girl
who wasn't sitting at the table with them to go
sit with her in Aeriel and the stepsisters exchange a smile.

(55:25):
We freeze on Megan, which is a weird way to
end this movie, but was the ninety seventh weird thing
in this movie. There's our film. Let's go watch double
teamed Sabrina, let's do real reviews. You've got the one
star this week. I wonder if they had to hunt

(55:46):
for a five star. Here we go, what do you go?

Speaker 2 (55:50):
All right? My one star comes from Brandy Ferrell. There
was clearly no budget for when they are in the
alien form because it looked real dumb. I would have
enjoyed this more if the father and daughter were just
weird hippies or something. Do not recommend one star.

Speaker 1 (56:09):
I don't disagree with anything that Brandy Farrell said. Yes,
I've got the five star and it's it's somebody named
honey Baby thirty six sixty nine and it reads as thus.
I thought it was a very great family movie. But
I'm sixteen years old. If anyone that reads this knows
some information about Henry Fagans, please email me, because I
really want to find out stuff about him. Which one's

(56:32):
Henry Fagans? Do we know? Is that just a random name?

Speaker 2 (56:35):
I don't remember that being a name. Okay, that's just
something we just saw. But there was so many weird
things I could definitely forgot. What about honey Baby three
six six nine? Is that was such a two thousand's
like AOL account, like use ther name like honey Baby three.

Speaker 1 (56:53):
Six sixth nine like that works.

Speaker 2 (56:56):
So it just it works. It's so good.

Speaker 1 (56:59):
Never had one of those. We're now coming to Sabrina's
favorite part of the program, of course, which is the
feature game that producer Jensen makes for us I hear
this week, though we might have a bit of a
reprieve because producer Jensen is not with us. I think
we have producer Tara with us. I'm if I'm not mistaken.

Speaker 2 (57:14):
Are you a little bit more of like a better
luck for me?

Speaker 1 (57:18):
She's also just nicer about it. She doesn't revel in
your misery? Are you with us?

Speaker 2 (57:22):
Producer Tara?

Speaker 1 (57:24):
Okay, So our feature this week is called take Me
to Your Leader. We dealt with some unique aliens in
Stepsister from Planet Weird, maybe some of the most confusing
and pop culture history, which is arguable, but with the
very long history of extraterrestrials on TV and in the movies,
it's important we give equal time to them all. So
we're going to get the name of one of these
famous beings, and with multiple choice options, we have to

(57:46):
pick which planet they call home. Three out of five
and we win. You ready, Sabrina?

Speaker 2 (57:53):
Oh yeah, right up?

Speaker 1 (57:55):
My alley number one Alf was alf from a Tartem
B Narpak, C Melmac or d Cat Diner.

Speaker 2 (58:09):
I'm gonna go a see.

Speaker 1 (58:11):
I believe it is c Melmac. If I'm not mistaken, you.

Speaker 2 (58:15):
Are both correct.

Speaker 1 (58:16):
It's one for us. Number two Mork is Mark from
Sork Orc Zork or Pork b Orc b orc is correct?

Speaker 2 (58:29):
Is it two for two?

Speaker 1 (58:31):
There you go, Mark from Orc. Number three Predator.

Speaker 2 (58:35):
Okay, this is that really crazy looking alien.

Speaker 1 (58:39):
Movie, right, yeah, like awesome movie. Okay, okay, are there
is the name of their home planet A Panita Sun Prime,
b Ya Jeta Prime, ce Conaza Prime or d Amazon Prime.
What do you got?

Speaker 2 (58:57):
Oh? Does it be again?

Speaker 1 (59:03):
It is b I know the Predator world and it
is Ujita Prime. Am I correct? Three? Three?

Speaker 2 (59:09):
Never gonna believe it?

Speaker 1 (59:11):
This is great. Number four Stitch is Stitch from a
truro b Sano see bupo or d Buka de Beppo?
What you got Sabrina?

Speaker 2 (59:25):
Oh this is Stitch like the Disney Stitch right.

Speaker 1 (59:29):
Yeah, see, I thought Stitch was made in a lab,
but I think the lab is from a planet, and
I think I know what it is. I was on movie.

Speaker 2 (59:39):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, because there's that evil Yes, yes, you're right,
I'm gonna say, see bopo, but I don't think I
believe it's a true Will's right, it's a.

Speaker 1 (59:52):
Yeah all right, So well we've already won. So now
we've got five Roger from American Dad. Is he, hey,
Jupiter's Twilight Path, B Mars's horizontal ring, see Earth's Central
Galaxy or D How would I know? I've never seen
American Dad. I don't know this one. And I was
on American Dad too, you were hey, Yeah, I did

(01:00:13):
an episode of American Dad.

Speaker 2 (01:00:14):
Oh my gosh, I think it's a Jupiter's twilight path.

Speaker 1 (01:00:23):
And be Mars. It sounds like something like I'm from Mars.
This horizontal ring like it sounds like something.

Speaker 2 (01:00:29):
He said, Yeah, that's true, that's true.

Speaker 1 (01:00:30):
All right, you were both wrong. It is C Earth
Central Galaxy. Okay, there we go again. We gotta have
produce a char back because we seem to win when
is here, and it's because Jensen brings such bad vibes
and anger.

Speaker 2 (01:00:49):
Had one right. I mean, I'm kind of like, I
don't think he'll ever ever believe that.

Speaker 1 (01:00:58):
I know, and you did that we were here, We
saw it for him. Yeah. Will. By the way, does
anybody while I have your produced chart, does anybody know
what Alf's favorite food was?

Speaker 2 (01:01:08):
Oh? Yeah, it was cats.

Speaker 1 (01:01:12):
Yeah, remember he always wanted to eat cats. Oh my god,
you gotta go back and watch Alf. It is a
serious acid trip, but better than this movie. Can we
do some Sabrina.

Speaker 3 (01:01:21):
Ceas yes, and foremost my mom and dad's name is
Fred and Kathy, So I thought that was k And
then when I came and did, like, you know, my
bit of like my homework for the movie, Kathy with
the k is not normal.

Speaker 2 (01:01:40):
I think more people named Kathy are starts with the
sea and okay, I've only really ever met my mom
Kathy with the cake except for recently, okay. And then
oh yeah, so I recognized the mean girl from Xenon,

(01:02:01):
and I was like, I wonder if Xenon was before after?
As always, I'm always like, what's that? I thought? I
actually asked in the chat, I thought for sure, okay, no, wait,
maybe I asked was the mom the mom from Luck
of the Irish because.

Speaker 1 (01:02:21):
She looked very different? Okay, Lisa said no, okay.

Speaker 2 (01:02:27):
But that she I thought it was. I was like, oh,
we've got like multiple de commerce you know in it.
Something that always cracks me up, you know, is the wardrobe.
This was like classic Disney Channel wardrobe, but the skinny
spaghetti strap tank top. But it had to be on
like a regular you know, at least two inch sure

(01:02:48):
that that happened, or if they had some type of
tank top there was like a vest of some sort,
so that was always happening. Something that I always always
throws me off a little bit is when they reference
things that are not like Disney, like Men in Black?

Speaker 1 (01:03:02):
Was that a Disney movie?

Speaker 2 (01:03:05):
It was it ok is men in Black. Then they
randomly referenced Jewel the artist, and then they referenced just
not too long after that, Goodwill Hunting. They said, she's right,
They said Ariel was straight out a good one. I
was like, that's a lot of referencing of like just
other yes, and then you already mentioned too. And then

(01:03:26):
we've got our little clip of of Lion King in there,
which is obviously Disney. Some of the funny little comments
that were made. We talked about extreme. Then she's freak
of all time, like this is like the lines of
working on the channel. You kind of hope you don't
have to say, right, the freak of all time like

(01:03:47):
extreme was words. And then she's whacked, Like what to me,
that's like someone whacked her? So those were crazy? Did
you see the little bit of I thought it was
not an easter egg. I don't know what you'd call this.
Maybe you have a better name for it. But how
her name, her character name is Ariel. And then when

(01:04:07):
she's in the water when Megan's windsurfing, and then he
cutters there and she walks out, and she's walking out
and the water looks just like Little Mermaid all the time.
It's like all sparkly, and she's just walking out like
the way little like the way Ariel walks out at
the very end of the movie. That's a good Easter egg. Right,

(01:04:32):
we talked about my non appropriate the inappropriate random men
in the room, So okay, so we didn't cover this.

Speaker 1 (01:04:45):
But.

Speaker 2 (01:04:47):
The dad, the the villain dad comes back and his
son like helps kill.

Speaker 1 (01:04:54):
Him, Yes, with the like with the with the the
hair dryers.

Speaker 2 (01:05:01):
Yeah, like helps like yeah, he like basically did something
similar to what happened to her mom. Right, he's gone
and he's not afraid.

Speaker 1 (01:05:11):
Of the wind. He's just gotten there. I mean, he's
they're all used to it.

Speaker 2 (01:05:15):
Yeah, so I'm like, but wait, he like helped like
murder rid of his dad.

Speaker 1 (01:05:22):
It's called fratricide.

Speaker 2 (01:05:23):
That is kind of crazy.

Speaker 1 (01:05:25):
Actually his father was a king, so it's actually technically regicide.
Oh terrible, terrible.

Speaker 2 (01:05:32):
And he even speaks on it later that he has
to he's go back and ru go back and rule.

Speaker 1 (01:05:38):
It's not even like I froze my dad. And so
because I'm gonna like, we'll see if he's ever gonna get.

Speaker 2 (01:05:45):
Cosmo like, yeah, he's dead, he's gone, He's dead.

Speaker 1 (01:05:51):
He's dead now. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:05:55):
And then the last thing is there's a song called
Sunshine Girl, and there's a jingle that happened within this
movie three or four times that sounds so much like that.
Oh really yeah, And I was like, I wonder if
anyone will recognize if they go back and watch this,
if you recognize a song that sounds just like Sunshine
Girl by You're Gonna Die Sunshine Girl by j Boot

(01:06:16):
featuring Peta p e E t A. Wow. Anyway, Okay,
kept going and it comes in like three or four
times throughout the movie, and I was like, what song
is that? And I finally figured out a lyric I
remembered and looked it up and that's it.

Speaker 1 (01:06:33):
Well, there we go, Thank you so much. Now let's
let's rate our let's rate our movie, our options for
this week. I'm not even gonna make a joke out
of it one to ten. One's one's the worst, ten's best.
We can do one out of ten. Ignored redheaded little
brothers who can end the movie in minutes one out
of ten. Financial concerns about a windsurfing store. Obvious Australian accents,

(01:06:55):
Canadian aliens one out of ten, Glaba and Gronkas one
out of ten. Layers to protect your essence, alien love
bombing one out of ten. Mickey mantledogs or a handful
of blow dryers? What do you got? I also want
to add one out of ten. I need to watch
Double Teamed again.

Speaker 2 (01:07:15):
Bring back Double Team, Bring Double.

Speaker 1 (01:07:19):
Team, back Double Team. You wanna do that, let's do that.
One out of ten. Bring but we're gonna do one
out of ten bring back Double Teams. I go first
this week. I remember that, Yeah, this movie's not good.
This is not a good movie. Okay, let's They're not
all gonna be gems, some of them. I know. Some people, Well,
you're not watching it the right way. No, you can

(01:07:40):
watch I imagine if I was ten years old, I would
have watched this movie and gone, what is this movie?
At ten? So this is this? The book may be great.
This might be just a poorly adapted book. It could
be a great book. You can tell they greenlit this
three weeks before they were going to start shooting it.
You can tell their holes in it. I mean, it

(01:08:01):
is just a strange, strange movie, and not fun strange, but.

Speaker 2 (01:08:06):
Just weird and confusing, bad.

Speaker 1 (01:08:09):
And confusing, and then they're gas and it's just this.
This was this was a slog for me to get
through eighty five minutes. I mean, I'm gonna give it
three point five bring back double Teams because there I
just there's very little about this movie that was redeeming
for me. I just I didn't think the script was good.

(01:08:31):
The acting's okay, but it's nothing to write home about.
The story makes no sense whatsoever. Some of the characters
are just flat out annoying. This was not a good
movie for me. And you can come at me all
day long and we will talk film all day long.
This was not a good one. So I'm gonna stick.
I'm pretty I'm I'm okay with three point five bring

(01:08:52):
back double Teams.

Speaker 2 (01:08:53):
I yes, this one was. It was rough. It was rough,
and you know, it's it's different to like kind of
have the ability to like pick pick pinpoint and pick
apart certain things because there's so much greatness in the movie.
But for this movie, it was like it was a

(01:09:13):
struggle just to find any type of like sunshine and joy.
And you know, I live on a on a bright
and shiny class, right, yes, you do.

Speaker 1 (01:09:21):
You live in happy sunshine land.

Speaker 2 (01:09:23):
I do. And so this one was difficult and hard
for me too because it's like a friend of well,
I mean, like we haven't talked in years, but like
somebody I worked with and like have a lot of
respect for and everything is like one of the main
stars in here, and it's like she was the brunette. Yeah,
and and it was like, man, like this is this

(01:09:45):
is what Disney brought to you. I would assume. I'm
assuming she didn't really even have to audition for this
because of her status the channel, and just you know
that was that's disappointing. But again, the whole time, you're like,
you're easy need to be distracted because you don't even
really understand what's happening on the screen. And that's nope,

(01:10:06):
crazy to me. And usually we can find something that
kind of like flips it in like at least a
couple moments. The only funny part about it was his
and I said earlier, his fall down the when she
says he bladed down the mountain. When they brought that
one back, because he's referenced it again, That's the only
time I literally laughed in this whole ninety eighty five minutes.

Speaker 1 (01:10:28):
I laughed twice. I laughed with cutting back to the
Yukon again where it's population still low, and then I laughed.
He had one linery and cutter at the end where
it's like, I know that you frozer and that's like,
it's supposed to be cool, but it isn't. That was it.
That was the whole line. But the way he said
I reroounded three times. The way he read it was hysterical,

(01:10:49):
and I was like, why couldn't the whole movie have
been that? Yes, so that is what gave it to
point five. Yeah, breath, there you go.

Speaker 2 (01:10:57):
But I am going to go ahead, and this is
going to be my lowest score. It has to be.
I can't think of a movie that was that was
worse than that. This scoring is a three point five.
Bring back double teams, because I would watch that three
or four more time loop than ever watched. Yeah, this
really I'm sorry for the cast of the crew and

(01:11:20):
everyone involved because that's not nice to say, but you
know it is.

Speaker 1 (01:11:25):
This is a rough one. Uh you know again, they
can't all be bangers. They can't.

Speaker 2 (01:11:30):
It's just it's so crazy how this time of the
channel there was an adjustment that was happening and they
were trying to figure out where they were going with
their dcom world, and this was one of the ones
that was jumbled up of like you could just tell
they didn't have a clear direction at this point.

Speaker 1 (01:11:50):
Is what it seemed like, Well, it's yours, It's truly.
I mean, the one thing we're starting to realize it's
really your movie. There is pre Cheetah Girls d COM
and then there's post Cheatagirls DCOM, which are two very
different things. Because when the Cheetah Girls came out and
it became more about the music and good acting and
bigger locations they ran with that. Yeah, that that then

(01:12:11):
became what the channel was about. It became high school musical,
it became and now we see what it is now
with zombies and forty million dollar movies. But it really
can be You can point to the Cheeta Girls as
the one. I mean, we're watching the Model. Ye you
came out what two thousand and three are moo?

Speaker 2 (01:12:26):
Yeah, we filmed two thousand and two, came out two
thousand and three.

Speaker 1 (01:12:28):
Okay, great. So there's very few movies pre two thousand
and three that we've been watching that are on the
caliber of the movies after the Cheetah Girls. Yeah, and
it's almost changed it.

Speaker 2 (01:12:38):
Ever, it wasn't if it wasn't a before, if it
wasn't like a movie that was based on some kind
of micro world or like some kind of sports thing, yes,
like an extreme sport of some sort. It just was
not finding the storylines that could carry the ninety minutes are.

Speaker 1 (01:12:56):
One hundred percent. So well that's where we are. Everybody again,
you might disc with us, but you'd be wrong. Next
week we are back to swapping bodies, a dcom trope
we faced before, but this time it's with a future
Gray's Anatomy Superstar. Little fun fact, I've never seen ten
seconds of Gray's Anatomy.

Speaker 2 (01:13:15):
