Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to Later with Mo Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
It's Later with mo Kelly. Time to talk free movies
with Chris Woolsey of Visio TV, Visio home of the
Visio Watch Free Plus app.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
If I am six forty is Later with mo Kelly.
We live on YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, and the iHeartRadio app.
Let's talk some movies with Chris Woolsey, of course, of
Visio TV, the Associate director of Communications. My brother has
been a minute. How you been? I have been well.
I have been How have you been? I have been great.
As a matter of fact, I was hoping and looking
forward to seeing you because you know, lives get real busy.
(01:03):
We didn't have the past couple of weeks. I always
like talking movies with you because you are a fan
as I am. I am a fan.
Speaker 4 (01:11):
In fact, you gave me some homework the last time
I was on the show, if you remember, Cord and
I did the homework. I went and watched Pitch Dark
with Vinde s So Pitch Black, I'm pitch Black.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
Thank you? Yes, yes, okay, let me get out of
the way. Give me your movie review.
Speaker 4 (01:28):
I loved it. I thought it was. I thought it
was fantastic. I didn't have big expectations going in, so
I was pleasantly surprised. I thought they did a really
good job of hiding the fact that they didn't have
a big budget by making really interesting stylistic choices.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
Kept it dark, yep, didn't reveal everything along the way. Yep.
Speaker 4 (01:53):
Yeah, no, I was. I was so excited about that.
Pleasantly surprised. So anytime you guys have a recommend nations,
just throw my way.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
And let me just apologize because you were caught up
in the hallway conversation. You didn't come here with that.
You learned way too much about us individually and collectively,
So let me just apologize on behalf of the staff.
Quite all right.
Speaker 4 (02:16):
I feel like I came away a better person, and
I know probably more about cleaning products than I ever
wanted to know.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
But I appreciate you for being a good sport. What
do we have at Visio and the watch free plus
app that you're featuring this week?
Speaker 4 (02:33):
We've got all kinds of great stuff, but this month
we are promoting a bunch you know, summer is in
full swing. Yes, so we've got a bunch of very
fun summer titles that we are promoting. One of my favorites.
This is a two thousand and two girl power surf
(02:55):
film called Blue Crush.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
I don't know if you've ever seen it. Yes, yeah,
I have seen it in many, many years, but yes,
I had to remember a good feeling about it. Kate Bosworth.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
Yeah, it's it's very fun and it like it kind
of encapsulates beach culture and summer and you know, girls
and bikinis. Hey, it's it's very From Michelle Rodriguez Fast
and Furious obviously, yep. Matthew Davis, who I didn't realize
that guy has been in everything in the last twenty years.
(03:24):
He's done like six series Vampire Diaries and a ton
of other things.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
But he sometimes are reminded that the whole idea of
an overnight success just doesn't exist. They're just not You're
not well, they're not well known to.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
You exactly, but they are working in the industry consistently right.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
That they are, you know, paying their dues absolutely. Yep.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
So that's a very fun one. It's extremely summary. I
think my favorite this month is Fever Pitch. This is
the nineteen ninety seven rom com Drew Barrymore, Jimmy Fallon.
She's like a type a executive type woman who's a
(04:07):
serial dater, meets Jimmy Fallon, who ticks a bunch of
boxes for her. But the problem is he's in love
with someone else. And when I say someone else, he's
in love with the Boston Red Sox, and so he
has this like ridiculous dedication to the baseball franchise and
she can't quite wrap her head around it. But it
(04:29):
is a really fun rom com. I think both of
them are imminently watchable. I think she's adorable, He's always
super fun. And it's just it's a great, great summer
rom com.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
All right. See I don't I don't picture you as
the rom com type guy. Where does does genre rank
for you? Pretty low? As a matter of Okay, so
you are in correct in that summation.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
But every once in a while, when there is a
rom com that doesn't fit in, like we talked about
recently five Hundred Days of Summer, I love that. I
think Joseph Gordon Levitt is electric in that Zoey Deschanel
is great together they've got ridiculous chemistry. So there are
exceptions that prove the rule that I am not generally
(05:18):
a gigantic rom com guy.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
I know you got one more before we go to break.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
I do just because you know, it's summer, people are
going to the beach. They're doing a lot of swimming.
I just want to throw a cautionary tail in there.
Deep Blue Sea nineteen ninety nine. This is the shartastic film.
Samuel Jackson, Thomas Jane, who I know you're a big
fan of. We talked about Crown Vic once when I
(05:44):
was on the show long ago.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Cool j ll Cool. The only reason I know that
it's because I was working at Warner Brothers Records at
the time and we were responsible for producing the soundtrack. Okay,
and llll has this song My head is like a
shark's in and it's really good. And I just remember
because I worked on the soundtrack. Yeah, and the movie
(06:07):
it's it's an underrated shark movie. Let me put it
that way. It is.
Speaker 4 (06:11):
And I think Elcool Jay absolutely could be a scientist.
I'm just going to go out on a limb because no,
it's it's fantastic. Saffron Burrows is adorable from Mozart in
the Jungle. She's easy on the eyes. She is very
easy on the eyes. And it's just it's a very fun.
So they're trying to cure Alzheimer's in forty eight hours.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
I'm not sure how that works, but right.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
But she is convinced she can do it, and they
inject sharks with smart serum of some sort and they
and it goes wrong, but it goes sideways, to say
the least.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
And yeah, everything goes wrong. I don't want to give
anything away, but there's a very impassioned speech by Samuel L.
Jackson's character which makes the movie. Yes, I agree, you
know what I'm talking about. Absolutely know what you're talking about. Yeah,
and it is. It is phenomenal.
Speaker 4 (07:04):
And this is this is like Jaws meets a cheese
factory because it is just, yeah, it's it's very fun.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
It's a well thought out movie. And actually I thought
they would do a sequel to it. I thought that
it was enough there, you know, And I don't want
to say how it turns out, but there was room
for a sequel.
Speaker 4 (07:25):
Yes, And I'm I'm also bringing this up because I
am teasing the fact that in July we're going to
have the Watch Free plus Shark Attack channel, which we'll
have about fifty of your favorite cheesy.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
Shark slash wait say that again please, so everyone knows.
Speaker 4 (07:43):
This is the Visio Watch Free Plus Shark Attack Channel,
and that will be launching in July and it will
have about fifty of your favorite cheese. So we've got
the Open Water franchise obviously, the Sharknado, Bullshark, all three
installations of that one. I mean, we've got Mountain Shark,
(08:05):
sand Shark. It's ridiculous. Every shark iteration you can possibly imagine.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
You got more when we come back. Oh yes, it's
Late with Mo Kelly. Chris Woolsey joins me in the studio,
Associate director of Communications for Visio TV. We're talking about
the Watch Free Plus app.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
You're listening to Later with Mo Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
Kf I AM six forty is Later with Mo Kelly.
We're live on YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, and the iHeartRadio app.
And I'm telling you, nobody has more fun than we do.
And the only way that you can have fun with
us is to tune into one of the visual simulcast
streams such as Facebook, Instagram, obviously YouTube, because there's some
(08:49):
stuff that we can only show you, we can't tell you.
And if you missed the dance off last segments, shame
on you. I'm joined in studio right now by Chris
Wolsey of Visio TV. He's associate director of Communications. We're
talking about the Watch Free Plus app, where we have
all this great free movie and television content free, free, free. Again,
(09:11):
let's remind people how they can get the Watch Free
Plus app. Absolutely so.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
If you have a Visio TV, you simply turn it
on on the home environment.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
It's right there.
Speaker 4 (09:22):
You click on the Watch Free Plus icon and you're
off to the races.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
If you say that's you on the screen, that is me.
Look at that amazing. I gotta see it to believe it.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
I feel like you're running me through filters or something
because I don't hand to do. I don't see wrinkles.
This is amazing. I'm just gonna hang out here longer.
I thought was Daniel's handywork. That's incredible. He's pretty good.
Speaker 3 (09:44):
He is good.
Speaker 4 (09:46):
But if you don't own a Visio TV, don't worry
because you also can get access to Watch Free Plus.
All you have to do is go to your favorite
app store. Download the free Visio mobile app, click on
Watch Free Plus, create a free video account, and you're
off to the races that are over three hundred free
streaming channels. Free not an act, and that is the
(10:09):
proper response to free and over three hundred free streaming channels.
Tens of thousands, well, but three hundred free streaming channels.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
It's ridiculous.
Speaker 4 (10:19):
I don't know why anybody's paying for anything when you
have all this much free.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
Mark doesn't pay for anything free. And I know that
you have some horror offerings this week as well. Oh
bring it please, we do so.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
I'm often on here talking about horror movies, which are
obviously amazing. But Visio Watch Free Plus also has a
ton of great horror television series, including the two thousand
and thirteen award winning series Hannibal.
Speaker 5 (10:48):
Oh that's wonderful. Yeah, Brian Fuller, that's so good. And
they quit the show before it came to its natural.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
Conclusion unfortunately, Yes, so we have every episode.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
It's such a great show.
Speaker 4 (11:01):
Mad's Michelson, who my wife says an unhealthy obsession with
He's your favorite.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
She probably thinks it is a healthy obsession.
Speaker 5 (11:09):
Can we all agree that he was the best Hannibal Lecter,
better than Anthony Hopkins, better than Brian Cox.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
I don't know if we can agree, because.
Speaker 5 (11:19):
He's really creepy in the show. He is exceedingly creepy
in the.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
Show, no creepy, but still there was a standard which
was set prior to him.
Speaker 5 (11:28):
He makes Anthony Hopkins look like a Warner Brothers character.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
I agree, I agree, I think.
Speaker 4 (11:33):
I think Mad's is incredibly I feel like each iteration.
So you had Brian Cox in Manhunter, he was great,
but what does he had?
Speaker 3 (11:45):
Like four minutes of screen time in Rian Cox is
great and everything, And.
Speaker 4 (11:48):
Then if you look at the amount of time Anthony
Hopkins is actually on the screen, it's very little. In
Silence of the Lambs, he's spectriacular when he's there, don't
get me wrong. But Mad's Michelson. He gets to take
the character and run with it over dozens of episodes
and it's it's just spectacular. And it takes place ten
years after the events of Silence of the Lambs.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
Uh, and you just give me prior. I'm sorry, No, No,
it's it's after Are you sure about that?
Speaker 4 (12:19):
You're right?
Speaker 6 (12:19):
No?
Speaker 3 (12:19):
Don't they introduce one of the later episodes. Correct, Yeah,
it is, it is prior. I'm sorry.
Speaker 4 (12:24):
Yeah, And it's just it's so good. It's so good,
and the cast is incredible, Laurence Fishburne, Hugh Dancy, Gillian Anderson,
who's unbelievable.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
Hugh Dancy is also very underrated. I watch him now
on Law and Order. It's like this. This guy's great. Yeah, yeah,
it's fantastic. I know you have some more horror to share.
I do. We have Hemlock Grove.
Speaker 4 (12:47):
This was produced by Eli Roth, who I think has
created more horror on television than any single person. I mean,
he's uh, he directed Hostile. There's like tons and tons
of series that he is either horror series that he's
either directed or produced. It's basically Riverdale meets American horror stories.
(13:08):
So you have all these beautiful young people and there
is something very wrong going on in this town where
they live. So Funka Johnson from X Men, Bill Scarsguard
from Obviously It and Knows Farratu. We have a lot
of like Scandahouvian people. We're talking about this this time.
I'm not sure why, but Landon Liberian from Frontier. It's
(13:34):
really good. This kind of drifter kid moves into this
town and befriends the heir to the wealthiest family in town.
And there's been like a brutal murder that has just
taken place in town, and they kind of pair up
to expose this sort of supernatural underbelly that's going on
in Hemlock Grove. It's really really good, very intense, highly recommended.
(13:58):
I Dopey have time for one more, one more, and
I throw this in because I think it's very fun.
I think she's an underrated actress and or at least underutilized,
and that is Mina Suvari from American Beauty. She's so
good in this show. So this is called South of Hell.
Can I like prop myself up real quick? I met
her many years ago.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
She used to work out at the Bally's in Studio City,
and I think there's like American Beauty. I think it
when it just came out, Sure, and she would always
come in and work out, and she was one of
the nicest people. And it was relatively early in her career, Sure,
and she obviously went on to great stardom. But it's like,
it's nice to know that the people that you see
(14:40):
before they get big, big right, are decent people, that's all.
I just want to throw that inn. That's awesome. I
love that. And she's great in this.
Speaker 4 (14:45):
So she plays a it's kind of like a Buffy
the Vampire Slayer meets Justified. So she is a demon
slayer who actually herself has a demon inside of her,
which sort of fuels her hate tread for them and
her desire to destroy them.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
It's really good.
Speaker 4 (15:04):
Layman Rucker from The Blackhamptons Ye plays a priest.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
He's very funny.
Speaker 4 (15:10):
It's just that it's a nice mix of the horror genre,
but then also they weave some really fantastic humor in there.
Zachary Booth from Damages is great in this. Highly recommend
It's fantastic. South of Hell. Check it out. It's free
on Watch Free Plus.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
All of this everything we've been talking about is free
and available on the Watch Free Plus app. If you
have a Visio TV, it's already pre installed. You don't
necessarily need a Visio TV to be able to have
access to the Watch Free Plus app. All of this
is free and for your enjoyment. I don't know if
it gets any better than that. Chris Woolsey love it, yep,
get on it. Because you keep watching, We'll keep bringing
(15:53):
new titles. Does that mean you'll keep coming back? I
promise it's a Later with mo Kelly caf I AM
six forty We're live everywhere in the iHeartRadio app, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook,
and so much more.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
You're listening to Later with mo Kelly on demand from KFI.
Speaker 3 (16:07):
AM six forty six is Later with mo Kelly. We're
live on YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, iHeartRadio app. And since I'm
talking about the video simulcast of the show, we love
(16:28):
all things video and also movies particularly. We talked about
the issue of movies here being made here in southern California,
and we've talked about the struggles of keeping movie and
television productions right here in the California state statewide. Now
we're going to see some of the measures which have
(16:51):
been enacted to help encourage productions to stay in California.
It's not going to be every production, but there'll be
more here than in previous years, or at least in
recent years. Forty eight films have been selected for the
California Film and TV Tax Credit program. So there are
(17:12):
forty eight different productions which will be subsidized to encourage filmmakers.
And these are not necessarily big budget features, but still
it's keeping as much of the industry here in California
as possible. On there was this Netflix movie called One
of Them Days, which recently came out. I didn't see it.
(17:32):
It wasn't my thing, but it starred Keky Palmer and Siza.
The sequel to that is one of the forty eight
films that has been approved for the California Film Commissions
Film and Television Tax Credit Program. And this program will
provide government incentives for these forty eight upcoming projects and
(17:54):
the other forty seven. For example, if you put them
all together, it's expected to employ more than sixty five
hundred cast and crew members thirty two thousand background performers,
And this is from the California Film Commission. And the
projects are will pay an estimated three hundred and two
million dollars in wages for California workers. And the projects
(18:16):
are estimated to collectively generate six hundred and sixty four
million dollars in total spending throughout the state. Also, One
of Them Days is expect to receive, for example, eight
million dollars in tax credits and spend thirty nine million
dollars in qualified expenditures. This, when you put it against
(18:38):
the landscape of streaming, is really important because we can't
continue to think of movies and only in the theatrical
release sense. We can't only think about them in the
big budget movie sense. You have to think about streaming.
You have to think about smaller budget movies. Mark Runner
talked all the time about making sure that we have
(19:00):
room for movies which aren't necessarily big budget ones. They
need to be original thoughts. I don't want to speak
for you, Mark, but I've heard you talk about it.
Where smaller movies, smaller concepts, there has to be a
space for them within our movie going experience, and this
helps that go ahead.
Speaker 4 (19:18):
Mark.
Speaker 5 (19:19):
Well, the bigger the budget, the less risk people behind
it can take, you know, the studios, the investors, and
so it just makes more sense to spend less money
so that you can let a director run wild with
his vision and not have something cranked out by a committee,
or not have every single thing be some tent pole
remake or reboot or just some stale garbage like that
(19:40):
that we're all kind of sick of, aren't we.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
Yeah, I would say we are. And we also usually
complain about, well, there's nothing I want to see at
the movies or worth our time actually going to the movies. Now,
we may love movies, but that added incentive to actually
get in the car, spend some gas, spend money on concessions,
deal with them at snot knows ass, kids. You know
(20:04):
there has to be something more than a usual fair
And to your point, Mark, when you have a wider
selection of movies, then you're not relegated to always dealing
with that portion of society we don't want to be
dealing with.
Speaker 5 (20:17):
Yeah, it really does seem like the selection of movies
has narrowed so much in recent years. Like you know,
you're in different moods for different things at different times, right.
I Mean I always joke with you guys when you
go see Disney movies or cartoons and stuff, that I'm
an adult. You want the choice to see an adult
movie or some trash or an action film or whatever.
And our choices just keep on getting narrowed.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
The arrest of the excuse me, the rest of the
awarded projects are independent to this point. We're talking about
as far as variety of movies and thirty seven of
the forty eight which have been approved of these tax
credits are operating on budgets of under ten million dollars.
So this is going to be a bone for those
(21:02):
smaller productions. But you can do a lot with ten
million dollars or fewer. If you understand that we're talking
about streaming, we're talking about independent features, and hopefully when
you help out these independent features, you also put in
motion the directors of tomorrow. If you think of someone
(21:22):
like Ryan Cooler, his first movie, Fruit Fell Station was
an independent movie. If you think about Christopher Nolan, his
first movie, I think it was Memento, was an independent feature.
So when you provide a space for these up and
coming filmmakers or lower level budget movies, you're not only
helping the state and helping the industry as far as
(21:45):
keeping movies here in California, you're also growing some great
talent in the future. So as much as we complain
about jobs leaving California, as much as we complain about
the movie industry leaving Hollywood and going to different state,
these are some steps in the right direction. Now, is
it going to change the complete flow? Is it going
(22:05):
to change the complete trajectory. No, of course not. We've
talked about it in any number of times. You have
the big budget movies like Marvel and Disney, they do
a lot of their filming in Atlanta, Georgia. And you
have a lot of other big budget movies which you
are filming in Toronto or North Carolina and other places
around the country. Why because they have completely fully developed
(22:28):
studios in those locations. Tyler Perry, Tyler Perry has his
own massive studio in Atlanta, Georgia. And speaking of Tyler Perry,
let me digress very quickly. He has a new movie
on Netflix called Straw starring Taraji p Henson. If you
(22:48):
watch it, I will, I will, I will sock you
in your jaw. It's one of the worst. Ooh ooh,
ooh ooh, it's so bad. I looked it up after
you text it is. Oh, that's a giant no po
it is I. I can appreciate Tyler Perry what he's
(23:11):
done to help actors over the years and providing a
space for people to work. When we talk about all
of his streaming projects, his movies, even his stage plays,
He's helped a lot of people over the years and
his philanthropy and the things which are not publicized. I
cannot say a bad word about him in that regard,
(23:34):
but his his work has not grown creatively. He writes, produces,
and directs all of his materials. Oh it's just a
hang on now.
Speaker 5 (23:44):
Pedro, our traffic guy, says, watch Straw for comedic relief
with him.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Can we get Patron? Can we patrick through? Let me see? Okay,
we're gonna see a Patro who does traffic for us? Cause, Hey, Pedro,
I got you on you there, sir? What's up, guys? Patro?
You saw Straw on Netflix? I did.
Speaker 6 (24:04):
I was forced to, but I kind of wanted to
get some laughs in that day.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
Your girl made you watch, didn't she?
Speaker 4 (24:10):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (24:11):
Yeah, for sure? Without giving it away, what was your
overall thought about it?
Speaker 6 (24:21):
There was so much, so much going on and like
it's there. There was one curveball in the whole movie,
and I'm sure you know where where it went. But
everything else I was just laughing, from from wigs to
you know, to everything. It was just overall it was
(24:41):
it was poop.
Speaker 3 (24:42):
Yeah, long story short. Straw stars Taraji p Henson, who
in her own right is a great actress. This is
just not the vehicle for it. And she is a mother.
At the end of her rope, seventy five different things
which are all horrible happened to her inside of a
thirty five minute period within the movie. Completely ridiculous, completely unbelievable,
(25:03):
completely hysterical in the way that you just watch it
like like come on, then you say come on, and
then this happens like no way. And Glenn Turman also
co stars in it. He's I love him as an actor.
He's bit on this show, but he plays a very
cartoonish character. And it's just unbelievable. Everything that happens. It
(25:24):
seems like it's like stage play because it's so over
the top. Is it's supposed to be a drama. It's
a drama, but unintentionally funny. Yeah. Oh, you're laughing out
loud at inappropriate moments. That's the only way I can
describe it. It is. It is really, really, really bad.
Speaker 7 (25:40):
Also, I don't know if you're looking at the chat
right now, MO, but Carnice is trying to play it low.
Speaker 3 (25:46):
I actually enjoyed that I did.
Speaker 6 (25:49):
It got me emotional.
Speaker 3 (25:52):
Everywhere. I will not allow you to give that piece
of crap credit.
Speaker 4 (25:58):
On my job though.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
It is it Okay, yes, it is directed. The intended
audience is definitely female, who may empathize with her and
sympathize with her. It is trauma porn. As someone put
it to me, it's about if you want to be
in your feelings for a good hour and twenty minutes,
(26:21):
it's perfect for you. It's not even long. It's not
even a long movie. It's something. It's not that long. Okay,
you can do it in one city. It's just bad.
It's it's from camera angles to make up. Traghy p
Henson is sweating through the whole movie, and she's the
only one sweating. It's like, I don't get it. I
don't get it. My girl was stressed. It was it
(26:42):
was just something I know. We're gone way down the
side of the road here, Pedro, thank you for giving
us your review. It's just one of those things I
can't in good conscience recommend. I can recommend Tyler Perry
and his philanthropy, saying nothing of his present legal issues
that he's dealing with, But this just says to me
he's not even trying to grow as a content creator.
(27:06):
If you want to see some really bad filmmaking, have
three or four drinks and put it on and laugh
your ass off.
Speaker 5 (27:15):
It is.
Speaker 3 (27:17):
Over the top, otherworldly dumb. Other than that, I thoroughly
enjoyed it. It's Later with Mo Kelly CAF six forty. Sorry, Cardisha,
I'm just sorry, I just I have to tell you.
Maybe true, but I'm also accurate. We're live everywhere on YouTube, Instagram, Facebook,
and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
You're listening to Later with Mo Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (27:44):
Kelly six live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app and social media.
And you never know what goes on behind the scenes
of some of your favorite TV shows. There's some of
your favorite movies for that matter, and oftentimes stars and
co stars will play nice with each other for the
(28:05):
sake of the television series or or movie because they
don't want bad press to come out. And then after
the series is over or the movie is out in theaters,
then you get to hear about all the horror stories. Well,
it seems on Cobra Kai there were two actors that
really didn't like each other, or at least one really
(28:26):
liked another actor or actress, and it's now playing out
in public in the worst way. And if you've seen
Cobra Kai, you know Martin Cove. He plays since a crease.
If you've seen the most recent seasons of Cobra Kai,
then you may know actress Alicia Hannah Kim, who was
a recently introduced co star. She played like a Cobra
(28:50):
Kai team member, Sinsey, a fellow teacher, and those two
characters had a lot of interaction in the final two
seasons of Cobra Kai. You never know about their personal relationship,
with whether they like or dislike each other, but now
you know exactly they don't like each other. According to
(29:11):
a report in Variety which came out yesterday, Hannakim told
an officer working of the VIP section of a red
carpet event about Cobra Kai in the state of Washington
that after tapping Martin Cove on the shoulder to say hello,
he suddenly grabbed her arm and bit her so hard
(29:33):
he nearly drew blood. She filed a police report, and
the police report states that when she cried out in pain,
Cove allegedly started kissing her arm where he had bitten her.
The report detailed that Hannah Kim then told her husband
who was there, and I'm surprised you didn't whoop his
(29:54):
ass on site. It goes on to say that the
husband did confront Martin Kove the incident, and it also
states upon confronting Cove, he quote exploded on them, saying
something to the effect of how dare they confront him?
Close quote. Hanna Kim and her husband asked a reporting
officer to step in and diffuse a situation. According to report,
(30:15):
Cove claimed that he was trying to be funny, adding
that they quote play fight all the time on the
set of Cobra Kai close quote. Let me just stop
right there, Okay. If I am at an event with
my wife and one of her co workers were to
bite her so hard that it drew blood and then
(30:38):
wanted to kiss her arm to soothe her and say
that he was kidding, I'm going to jail that night.
I don't know how it's going to play out in court.
And I'm not talking about being a tough guy. I'm
saying that's the only appropriate response for me as a
man defending my wife in a situation like that. That's
(30:58):
the only response. I'm not going to the guys say hey,
you stop that don't bite my wife, don't put your
hands on my wife, unhand her. Oh, there's an instant altercation.
For me, that's the only reasonable response because he's physically
assaulting her. Yeah.
Speaker 8 (31:18):
Unfortunately, the response of her going to the police to
tell them what happened in an instant with me, it
would have been the police would have been called over
because there was a mad fight. There would have been, hey,
I'm going to go and tell the police. It's the
police would have been coming in, cuffing me or pulling
(31:38):
me off of said individual. And then it had been like,
what's happening. You're going to jail, Da, da da. This
is oh, hey, okay, he assaulted my wife. This is
self defense. I am putting hands on him because he
thought this was.
Speaker 3 (31:53):
Some type of game. I don't know, like we weren't there.
But from the way it's described, this incident happened in
view of her husband. Let's say it wasn't and she
had to tell him. I am not going to first
confront him and then go to the police who might
be there. This is an instant ass whooping situation, and
(32:16):
it doesn't matter if I lose, it does not matter.
Maybe this is about the man code where we have
to protect those who are important to us. Let's say
it wasn't my wife. Let's say it was my daughter.
You know what I mean. I don't know how it
would be any different. I don't know. There's certain times
where you can't have a conversation.
Speaker 8 (32:34):
Like I don't care if if say this was me
and my son who he was on Cobra Kai and
Martin Cove came up and punched him so hard in
the stomach he threw up or something like that. Right,
I don't care what y'all do on the set, you
assault my son, my child, But someone that I'm there
with that is close to me is like, bro, we're
(32:55):
not on the set, and when this is not playtime.
Speaker 3 (32:58):
You ask fine, it's done a full view of the press.
So I'm not even worried about whether there's evidence of
the assaults right there. It's right there.
Speaker 7 (33:08):
But I was talking about Nick and when it comes
to bodily fluids, because I mean that it's there on
her arm, I'm guessing, I mean, doesn't that count even
like almost like a felony.
Speaker 3 (33:17):
I don't know that. I'll let the police work it
out because that's tomorrow. But today I'm putting foot in ass.
And I've thought about this. I've never been arrested, never
going to jail, with the exception of Disneyland long story.
You probably heard it, but the only time CARDI said,
I haven't heard it. We'll tell you about it said.
(33:40):
But my point is, I do think about what is
it I'm willing to go to jail for under what circumstances?
I don't care about getting a record. When I read
this story, this is one of those times.
Speaker 8 (33:51):
Absolutely, I mean, Mark Ronner has almost come to the
point where he was going to pull a man out
of his car for I think Honky at the long
suffering one's do you mess with you mess with ours?
Speaker 3 (34:09):
Yeah, I gotta deal with that. I hate to what
if he was just playing around? You know.
Speaker 5 (34:16):
The last thing I want to get into is some
whissy whining about cancel culture, which doesn't really exist. But
what if he was just playing around. I've seen people
just have their whole careers ended in the comic industry
for having a couple of drinks at the bar at
night and playing a little grab ass with each other.
Maybe maybe this was all that.
Speaker 3 (34:33):
One, you know, maybe maybe you know, maybe he was drunk,
Maybe he was high, maybe he was only playing. But
he bit my wife and drew blood. I am efing
his ass up. Is it possible that there might have
been an overreaction? Just possible? No, No, No, it could be both.
In other words, he could have meant it in a
playful way. I mean, I.
Speaker 5 (34:53):
Admit that it's normal for us to just have our
eyes roll up to the whites if something happens to
our women and we want to kill in me idiately.
But let me just suggest that that's not always the appropriate.
Speaker 3 (35:04):
Oh I'm not talking about appropriate. I am not even
talking about legal. I'm not even talking about Yeah, no,
I would have done. No one said that.
Speaker 8 (35:10):
No one said that that the response was not irrational.
Speaker 3 (35:15):
Also, this has nothing to do with it with rash
it out. At the end of the day, how old
are you. He's seventy something exactly, so it might be
murdered what I'm doing.
Speaker 5 (35:23):
Well, so maybe he didn't even have his own teeth
and he just gunned her arm.
Speaker 3 (35:26):
No, he drew blood blood.
Speaker 8 (35:28):
All I'm all I'm saying is he could have been
high out of his mind. He could be high and drunk.
He could have thought that that it was all fun
and games because of what they do on the set.
We are in real life, and when he would sober
up or come down off of his high, he would
be saying things.
Speaker 9 (35:47):
Like what what what happened? Why did mister Sharp jump
on me like that? Hey, Twell, I know we got
to go to break. But I remember I talked to
you about this real life situation. This is like maybe
eight or nine years ago.
Speaker 3 (35:58):
Yes, I was bar New Year's Eve with my then
fiance and this woman got into it with my wife
and then her boyfriend came over and put hit his
hands on my then fiance. Next thing I know, three
people are trying to jump me. That's just the way
(36:20):
it goes because when when I saw touch made, I'm
immediately inserting myself by in this situation, all of it. Yes,
so I know we got a break, Dan, you get ready.
We're taking it to the hallway. We're taking it to
the hallway. So join us on YouTube, A, Instagram, Facebook,
We're taking it to the hallway. We're definiting women. K

more stimulating talk
You're listening to Later with Mo Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
It's Later with mo Kelly. Time to talk free movies
with Chris Woolsey of Visio TV, Visio home of the
Visio Watch Free Plus app.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
If I am six forty is Later with mo Kelly.
We live on YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, and the iHeartRadio app.
Let's talk some movies with Chris Woolsey, of course, of
Visio TV, the Associate director of Communications. My brother has
been a minute. How you been? I have been well.
I have been How have you been? I have been great.
As a matter of fact, I was hoping and looking
forward to seeing you because you know, lives get real busy.
(01:03):
We didn't have the past couple of weeks. I always
like talking movies with you because you are a fan
as I am. I am a fan.
Speaker 4 (01:11):
In fact, you gave me some homework the last time
I was on the show, if you remember, Cord and
I did the homework. I went and watched Pitch Dark
with Vinde s So Pitch Black, I'm pitch Black.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
Thank you? Yes, yes, okay, let me get out of
the way. Give me your movie review.
Speaker 4 (01:28):
I loved it. I thought it was. I thought it
was fantastic. I didn't have big expectations going in, so
I was pleasantly surprised. I thought they did a really
good job of hiding the fact that they didn't have
a big budget by making really interesting stylistic choices.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
Kept it dark, yep, didn't reveal everything along the way. Yep.
Speaker 4 (01:53):
Yeah, no, I was. I was so excited about that.
Pleasantly surprised. So anytime you guys have a recommend nations,
just throw my way.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
And let me just apologize because you were caught up
in the hallway conversation. You didn't come here with that.
You learned way too much about us individually and collectively,
So let me just apologize on behalf of the staff.
Quite all right.
Speaker 4 (02:16):
I feel like I came away a better person, and
I know probably more about cleaning products than I ever
wanted to know.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
But I appreciate you for being a good sport. What
do we have at Visio and the watch free plus
app that you're featuring this week?
Speaker 4 (02:33):
We've got all kinds of great stuff, but this month
we are promoting a bunch you know, summer is in
full swing. Yes, so we've got a bunch of very
fun summer titles that we are promoting. One of my favorites.
This is a two thousand and two girl power surf
(02:55):
film called Blue Crush.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
I don't know if you've ever seen it. Yes, yeah,
I have seen it in many, many years, but yes,
I had to remember a good feeling about it. Kate Bosworth.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
Yeah, it's it's very fun and it like it kind
of encapsulates beach culture and summer and you know, girls
and bikinis. Hey, it's it's very From Michelle Rodriguez Fast
and Furious obviously, yep. Matthew Davis, who I didn't realize
that guy has been in everything in the last twenty years.
(03:24):
He's done like six series Vampire Diaries and a ton
of other things.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
But he sometimes are reminded that the whole idea of
an overnight success just doesn't exist. They're just not You're
not well, they're not well known to.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
You exactly, but they are working in the industry consistently right.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
That they are, you know, paying their dues absolutely. Yep.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
So that's a very fun one. It's extremely summary. I
think my favorite this month is Fever Pitch. This is
the nineteen ninety seven rom com Drew Barrymore, Jimmy Fallon.
She's like a type a executive type woman who's a
(04:07):
serial dater, meets Jimmy Fallon, who ticks a bunch of
boxes for her. But the problem is he's in love
with someone else. And when I say someone else, he's
in love with the Boston Red Sox, and so he
has this like ridiculous dedication to the baseball franchise and
she can't quite wrap her head around it. But it
(04:29):
is a really fun rom com. I think both of
them are imminently watchable. I think she's adorable, He's always
super fun. And it's just it's a great, great summer
rom com.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
All right. See I don't I don't picture you as
the rom com type guy. Where does does genre rank
for you? Pretty low? As a matter of Okay, so
you are in correct in that summation.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
But every once in a while, when there is a
rom com that doesn't fit in, like we talked about
recently five Hundred Days of Summer, I love that. I
think Joseph Gordon Levitt is electric in that Zoey Deschanel
is great together they've got ridiculous chemistry. So there are
exceptions that prove the rule that I am not generally
(05:18):
a gigantic rom com guy.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
I know you got one more before we go to break.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
I do just because you know, it's summer, people are
going to the beach. They're doing a lot of swimming.
I just want to throw a cautionary tail in there.
Deep Blue Sea nineteen ninety nine. This is the shartastic film.
Samuel Jackson, Thomas Jane, who I know you're a big
fan of. We talked about Crown Vic once when I
(05:44):
was on the show long ago.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Cool j ll Cool. The only reason I know that
it's because I was working at Warner Brothers Records at
the time and we were responsible for producing the soundtrack. Okay,
and llll has this song My head is like a
shark's in and it's really good. And I just remember
because I worked on the soundtrack. Yeah, and the movie
(06:07):
it's it's an underrated shark movie. Let me put it
that way. It is.
Speaker 4 (06:11):
And I think Elcool Jay absolutely could be a scientist.
I'm just going to go out on a limb because no,
it's it's fantastic. Saffron Burrows is adorable from Mozart in
the Jungle. She's easy on the eyes. She is very
easy on the eyes. And it's just it's a very fun.
So they're trying to cure Alzheimer's in forty eight hours.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
I'm not sure how that works, but right.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
But she is convinced she can do it, and they
inject sharks with smart serum of some sort and they
and it goes wrong, but it goes sideways, to say
the least.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
And yeah, everything goes wrong. I don't want to give
anything away, but there's a very impassioned speech by Samuel L.
Jackson's character which makes the movie. Yes, I agree, you
know what I'm talking about. Absolutely know what you're talking about. Yeah,
and it is. It is phenomenal.
Speaker 4 (07:04):
And this is this is like Jaws meets a cheese
factory because it is just, yeah, it's it's very fun.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
It's a well thought out movie. And actually I thought
they would do a sequel to it. I thought that
it was enough there, you know, And I don't want
to say how it turns out, but there was room
for a sequel.
Speaker 4 (07:25):
Yes, And I'm I'm also bringing this up because I
am teasing the fact that in July we're going to
have the Watch Free plus Shark Attack channel, which we'll
have about fifty of your favorite cheesy.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
Shark slash wait say that again please, so everyone knows.
Speaker 4 (07:43):
This is the Visio Watch Free Plus Shark Attack Channel,
and that will be launching in July and it will
have about fifty of your favorite cheese. So we've got
the Open Water franchise obviously, the Sharknado, Bullshark, all three
installations of that one. I mean, we've got Mountain Shark,
(08:05):
sand Shark. It's ridiculous. Every shark iteration you can possibly imagine.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
You got more when we come back. Oh yes, it's
Late with Mo Kelly. Chris Woolsey joins me in the studio,
Associate director of Communications for Visio TV. We're talking about
the Watch Free Plus app.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
You're listening to Later with Mo Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
Kf I AM six forty is Later with Mo Kelly.
We're live on YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, and the iHeartRadio app.
And I'm telling you, nobody has more fun than we do.
And the only way that you can have fun with
us is to tune into one of the visual simulcast
streams such as Facebook, Instagram, obviously YouTube, because there's some
(08:49):
stuff that we can only show you, we can't tell you.
And if you missed the dance off last segments, shame
on you. I'm joined in studio right now by Chris
Wolsey of Visio TV. He's associate director of Communications. We're
talking about the Watch Free Plus app, where we have
all this great free movie and television content free, free, free. Again,
(09:11):
let's remind people how they can get the Watch Free
Plus app. Absolutely so.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
If you have a Visio TV, you simply turn it
on on the home environment.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
It's right there.
Speaker 4 (09:22):
You click on the Watch Free Plus icon and you're
off to the races.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
If you say that's you on the screen, that is me.
Look at that amazing. I gotta see it to believe it.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
I feel like you're running me through filters or something
because I don't hand to do. I don't see wrinkles.
This is amazing. I'm just gonna hang out here longer.
I thought was Daniel's handywork. That's incredible. He's pretty good.
Speaker 3 (09:44):
He is good.
Speaker 4 (09:46):
But if you don't own a Visio TV, don't worry
because you also can get access to Watch Free Plus.
All you have to do is go to your favorite
app store. Download the free Visio mobile app, click on
Watch Free Plus, create a free video account, and you're
off to the races that are over three hundred free
streaming channels. Free not an act, and that is the
(10:09):
proper response to free and over three hundred free streaming channels.
Tens of thousands, well, but three hundred free streaming channels.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
It's ridiculous.
Speaker 4 (10:19):
I don't know why anybody's paying for anything when you
have all this much free.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
Mark doesn't pay for anything free. And I know that
you have some horror offerings this week as well. Oh
bring it please, we do so.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
I'm often on here talking about horror movies, which are
obviously amazing. But Visio Watch Free Plus also has a
ton of great horror television series, including the two thousand
and thirteen award winning series Hannibal.
Speaker 5 (10:48):
Oh that's wonderful. Yeah, Brian Fuller, that's so good. And
they quit the show before it came to its natural.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
Conclusion unfortunately, Yes, so we have every episode.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
It's such a great show.
Speaker 4 (11:01):
Mad's Michelson, who my wife says an unhealthy obsession with
He's your favorite.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
She probably thinks it is a healthy obsession.
Speaker 5 (11:09):
Can we all agree that he was the best Hannibal Lecter,
better than Anthony Hopkins, better than Brian Cox.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
I don't know if we can agree, because.
Speaker 5 (11:19):
He's really creepy in the show. He is exceedingly creepy
in the.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
Show, no creepy, but still there was a standard which
was set prior to him.
Speaker 5 (11:28):
He makes Anthony Hopkins look like a Warner Brothers character.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
I agree, I agree, I think.
Speaker 4 (11:33):
I think Mad's is incredibly I feel like each iteration.
So you had Brian Cox in Manhunter, he was great,
but what does he had?
Speaker 3 (11:45):
Like four minutes of screen time in Rian Cox is
great and everything, And.
Speaker 4 (11:48):
Then if you look at the amount of time Anthony
Hopkins is actually on the screen, it's very little. In
Silence of the Lambs, he's spectriacular when he's there, don't
get me wrong. But Mad's Michelson. He gets to take
the character and run with it over dozens of episodes
and it's it's just spectacular. And it takes place ten
years after the events of Silence of the Lambs.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
Uh, and you just give me prior. I'm sorry, No, No,
it's it's after Are you sure about that?
Speaker 4 (12:19):
You're right?
Speaker 6 (12:19):
No?
Speaker 3 (12:19):
Don't they introduce one of the later episodes. Correct, Yeah,
it is, it is prior. I'm sorry.
Speaker 4 (12:24):
Yeah, And it's just it's so good. It's so good,
and the cast is incredible, Laurence Fishburne, Hugh Dancy, Gillian Anderson,
who's unbelievable.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
Hugh Dancy is also very underrated. I watch him now
on Law and Order. It's like this. This guy's great. Yeah, yeah,
it's fantastic. I know you have some more horror to share.
I do. We have Hemlock Grove.
Speaker 4 (12:47):
This was produced by Eli Roth, who I think has
created more horror on television than any single person. I mean,
he's uh, he directed Hostile. There's like tons and tons
of series that he is either horror series that he's
either directed or produced. It's basically Riverdale meets American horror stories.
(13:08):
So you have all these beautiful young people and there
is something very wrong going on in this town where
they live. So Funka Johnson from X Men, Bill Scarsguard
from Obviously It and Knows Farratu. We have a lot
of like Scandahouvian people. We're talking about this this time.
I'm not sure why, but Landon Liberian from Frontier. It's
(13:34):
really good. This kind of drifter kid moves into this
town and befriends the heir to the wealthiest family in town.
And there's been like a brutal murder that has just
taken place in town, and they kind of pair up
to expose this sort of supernatural underbelly that's going on
in Hemlock Grove. It's really really good, very intense, highly recommended.
(13:58):
I Dopey have time for one more, one more, and
I throw this in because I think it's very fun.
I think she's an underrated actress and or at least underutilized,
and that is Mina Suvari from American Beauty. She's so
good in this show. So this is called South of Hell.
Can I like prop myself up real quick? I met
her many years ago.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
She used to work out at the Bally's in Studio City,
and I think there's like American Beauty. I think it
when it just came out, Sure, and she would always
come in and work out, and she was one of
the nicest people. And it was relatively early in her career, Sure,
and she obviously went on to great stardom. But it's like,
it's nice to know that the people that you see
(14:40):
before they get big, big right, are decent people, that's all.
I just want to throw that inn. That's awesome. I
love that. And she's great in this.
Speaker 4 (14:45):
So she plays a it's kind of like a Buffy
the Vampire Slayer meets Justified. So she is a demon
slayer who actually herself has a demon inside of her,
which sort of fuels her hate tread for them and
her desire to destroy them.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
It's really good.
Speaker 4 (15:04):
Layman Rucker from The Blackhamptons Ye plays a priest.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
He's very funny.
Speaker 4 (15:10):
It's just that it's a nice mix of the horror genre,
but then also they weave some really fantastic humor in there.
Zachary Booth from Damages is great in this. Highly recommend
It's fantastic. South of Hell. Check it out. It's free
on Watch Free Plus.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
All of this everything we've been talking about is free
and available on the Watch Free Plus app. If you
have a Visio TV, it's already pre installed. You don't
necessarily need a Visio TV to be able to have
access to the Watch Free Plus app. All of this
is free and for your enjoyment. I don't know if
it gets any better than that. Chris Woolsey love it, yep,
get on it. Because you keep watching, We'll keep bringing
(15:53):
new titles. Does that mean you'll keep coming back? I
promise it's a Later with mo Kelly caf I AM

Speaker 3 (16:07):
AM six forty six is Later with mo Kelly. We're
live on YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, iHeartRadio app. And since I'm
talking about the video simulcast of the show, we love
(16:28):
all things video and also movies particularly. We talked about
the issue of movies here being made here in southern California,
and we've talked about the struggles of keeping movie and
television productions right here in the California state statewide. Now
we're going to see some of the measures which have
(16:51):
been enacted to help encourage productions to stay in California.
It's not going to be every production, but there'll be
more here than in previous years, or at least in
recent years. Forty eight films have been selected for the
California Film and TV Tax Credit program. So there are
(17:12):
forty eight different productions which will be subsidized to encourage filmmakers.
And these are not necessarily big budget features, but still
it's keeping as much of the industry here in California
as possible. On there was this Netflix movie called One
of Them Days, which recently came out. I didn't see it.
(17:32):
It wasn't my thing, but it starred Keky Palmer and Siza.
The sequel to that is one of the forty eight
films that has been approved for the California Film Commissions
Film and Television Tax Credit Program. And this program will
provide government incentives for these forty eight upcoming projects and
(17:54):
the other forty seven. For example, if you put them
all together, it's expected to employ more than sixty five
hundred cast and crew members thirty two thousand background performers,
And this is from the California Film Commission. And the
projects are will pay an estimated three hundred and two
million dollars in wages for California workers. And the projects
(18:16):
are estimated to collectively generate six hundred and sixty four
million dollars in total spending throughout the state. Also, One
of Them Days is expect to receive, for example, eight
million dollars in tax credits and spend thirty nine million
dollars in qualified expenditures. This, when you put it against
(18:38):
the landscape of streaming, is really important because we can't
continue to think of movies and only in the theatrical
release sense. We can't only think about them in the
big budget movie sense. You have to think about streaming.
You have to think about smaller budget movies. Mark Runner
talked all the time about making sure that we have
(19:00):
room for movies which aren't necessarily big budget ones. They
need to be original thoughts. I don't want to speak
for you, Mark, but I've heard you talk about it.
Where smaller movies, smaller concepts, there has to be a
space for them within our movie going experience, and this
helps that go ahead.
Speaker 4 (19:18):
Mark.
Speaker 5 (19:19):
Well, the bigger the budget, the less risk people behind
it can take, you know, the studios, the investors, and
so it just makes more sense to spend less money
so that you can let a director run wild with
his vision and not have something cranked out by a committee,
or not have every single thing be some tent pole
remake or reboot or just some stale garbage like that
(19:40):
that we're all kind of sick of, aren't we.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
Yeah, I would say we are. And we also usually
complain about, well, there's nothing I want to see at
the movies or worth our time actually going to the movies. Now,
we may love movies, but that added incentive to actually
get in the car, spend some gas, spend money on concessions,
deal with them at snot knows ass, kids. You know
(20:04):
there has to be something more than a usual fair
And to your point, Mark, when you have a wider
selection of movies, then you're not relegated to always dealing
with that portion of society we don't want to be
dealing with.
Speaker 5 (20:17):
Yeah, it really does seem like the selection of movies
has narrowed so much in recent years. Like you know,
you're in different moods for different things at different times, right.
I Mean I always joke with you guys when you
go see Disney movies or cartoons and stuff, that I'm
an adult. You want the choice to see an adult
movie or some trash or an action film or whatever.
And our choices just keep on getting narrowed.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
The arrest of the excuse me, the rest of the
awarded projects are independent to this point. We're talking about
as far as variety of movies and thirty seven of
the forty eight which have been approved of these tax
credits are operating on budgets of under ten million dollars.
So this is going to be a bone for those
(21:02):
smaller productions. But you can do a lot with ten
million dollars or fewer. If you understand that we're talking
about streaming, we're talking about independent features, and hopefully when
you help out these independent features, you also put in
motion the directors of tomorrow. If you think of someone
(21:22):
like Ryan Cooler, his first movie, Fruit Fell Station was
an independent movie. If you think about Christopher Nolan, his
first movie, I think it was Memento, was an independent feature.
So when you provide a space for these up and
coming filmmakers or lower level budget movies, you're not only
helping the state and helping the industry as far as
(21:45):
keeping movies here in California, you're also growing some great
talent in the future. So as much as we complain
about jobs leaving California, as much as we complain about
the movie industry leaving Hollywood and going to different state,
these are some steps in the right direction. Now, is
it going to change the complete flow? Is it going
(22:05):
to change the complete trajectory. No, of course not. We've
talked about it in any number of times. You have
the big budget movies like Marvel and Disney, they do
a lot of their filming in Atlanta, Georgia. And you
have a lot of other big budget movies which you
are filming in Toronto or North Carolina and other places
around the country. Why because they have completely fully developed
(22:28):
studios in those locations. Tyler Perry, Tyler Perry has his
own massive studio in Atlanta, Georgia. And speaking of Tyler Perry,
let me digress very quickly. He has a new movie
on Netflix called Straw starring Taraji p Henson. If you
(22:48):
watch it, I will, I will, I will sock you
in your jaw. It's one of the worst. Ooh ooh,
ooh ooh, it's so bad. I looked it up after
you text it is. Oh, that's a giant no po
it is I. I can appreciate Tyler Perry what he's
(23:11):
done to help actors over the years and providing a
space for people to work. When we talk about all
of his streaming projects, his movies, even his stage plays,
He's helped a lot of people over the years and
his philanthropy and the things which are not publicized. I
cannot say a bad word about him in that regard,
(23:34):
but his his work has not grown creatively. He writes, produces,
and directs all of his materials. Oh it's just a
hang on now.
Speaker 5 (23:44):
Pedro, our traffic guy, says, watch Straw for comedic relief
with him.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Can we get Patron? Can we patrick through? Let me see? Okay,
we're gonna see a Patro who does traffic for us? Cause, Hey, Pedro,
I got you on you there, sir? What's up, guys? Patro?
You saw Straw on Netflix? I did.
Speaker 6 (24:04):
I was forced to, but I kind of wanted to
get some laughs in that day.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
Your girl made you watch, didn't she?
Speaker 4 (24:10):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (24:11):
Yeah, for sure? Without giving it away, what was your
overall thought about it?
Speaker 6 (24:21):
There was so much, so much going on and like
it's there. There was one curveball in the whole movie,
and I'm sure you know where where it went. But
everything else I was just laughing, from from wigs to
you know, to everything. It was just overall it was
(24:41):
it was poop.
Speaker 3 (24:42):
Yeah, long story short. Straw stars Taraji p Henson, who
in her own right is a great actress. This is
just not the vehicle for it. And she is a mother.
At the end of her rope, seventy five different things
which are all horrible happened to her inside of a
thirty five minute period within the movie. Completely ridiculous, completely unbelievable,
(25:03):
completely hysterical in the way that you just watch it
like like come on, then you say come on, and
then this happens like no way. And Glenn Turman also
co stars in it. He's I love him as an actor.
He's bit on this show, but he plays a very
cartoonish character. And it's just unbelievable. Everything that happens. It
(25:24):
seems like it's like stage play because it's so over
the top. Is it's supposed to be a drama. It's
a drama, but unintentionally funny. Yeah. Oh, you're laughing out
loud at inappropriate moments. That's the only way I can
describe it. It is. It is really, really, really bad.
Speaker 7 (25:40):
Also, I don't know if you're looking at the chat
right now, MO, but Carnice is trying to play it low.
Speaker 3 (25:46):
I actually enjoyed that I did.
Speaker 6 (25:49):
It got me emotional.
Speaker 3 (25:52):
Everywhere. I will not allow you to give that piece
of crap credit.
Speaker 4 (25:58):
On my job though.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
It is it Okay, yes, it is directed. The intended
audience is definitely female, who may empathize with her and
sympathize with her. It is trauma porn. As someone put
it to me, it's about if you want to be
in your feelings for a good hour and twenty minutes,
(26:21):
it's perfect for you. It's not even long. It's not
even a long movie. It's something. It's not that long. Okay,
you can do it in one city. It's just bad.
It's it's from camera angles to make up. Traghy p
Henson is sweating through the whole movie, and she's the
only one sweating. It's like, I don't get it. I
don't get it. My girl was stressed. It was it
(26:42):
was just something I know. We're gone way down the
side of the road here, Pedro, thank you for giving
us your review. It's just one of those things I
can't in good conscience recommend. I can recommend Tyler Perry
and his philanthropy, saying nothing of his present legal issues
that he's dealing with, But this just says to me
he's not even trying to grow as a content creator.
(27:06):
If you want to see some really bad filmmaking, have
three or four drinks and put it on and laugh
your ass off.
Speaker 5 (27:15):
It is.
Speaker 3 (27:17):
Over the top, otherworldly dumb. Other than that, I thoroughly
enjoyed it. It's Later with Mo Kelly CAF six forty. Sorry, Cardisha,
I'm just sorry, I just I have to tell you.
Maybe true, but I'm also accurate. We're live everywhere on YouTube, Instagram, Facebook,
and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
You're listening to Later with Mo Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (27:44):
Kelly six live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app and social media.
And you never know what goes on behind the scenes
of some of your favorite TV shows. There's some of
your favorite movies for that matter, and oftentimes stars and
co stars will play nice with each other for the
(28:05):
sake of the television series or or movie because they
don't want bad press to come out. And then after
the series is over or the movie is out in theaters,
then you get to hear about all the horror stories. Well,
it seems on Cobra Kai there were two actors that
really didn't like each other, or at least one really
(28:26):
liked another actor or actress, and it's now playing out
in public in the worst way. And if you've seen
Cobra Kai, you know Martin Cove. He plays since a crease.
If you've seen the most recent seasons of Cobra Kai,
then you may know actress Alicia Hannah Kim, who was
a recently introduced co star. She played like a Cobra
(28:50):
Kai team member, Sinsey, a fellow teacher, and those two
characters had a lot of interaction in the final two
seasons of Cobra Kai. You never know about their personal relationship,
with whether they like or dislike each other, but now
you know exactly they don't like each other. According to
(29:11):
a report in Variety which came out yesterday, Hannakim told
an officer working of the VIP section of a red
carpet event about Cobra Kai in the state of Washington
that after tapping Martin Cove on the shoulder to say hello,
he suddenly grabbed her arm and bit her so hard
(29:33):
he nearly drew blood. She filed a police report, and
the police report states that when she cried out in pain,
Cove allegedly started kissing her arm where he had bitten her.
The report detailed that Hannah Kim then told her husband
who was there, and I'm surprised you didn't whoop his
(29:54):
ass on site. It goes on to say that the
husband did confront Martin Kove the incident, and it also
states upon confronting Cove, he quote exploded on them, saying
something to the effect of how dare they confront him?
Close quote. Hanna Kim and her husband asked a reporting
officer to step in and diffuse a situation. According to report,
(30:15):
Cove claimed that he was trying to be funny, adding
that they quote play fight all the time on the
set of Cobra Kai close quote. Let me just stop
right there, Okay. If I am at an event with
my wife and one of her co workers were to
bite her so hard that it drew blood and then
(30:38):
wanted to kiss her arm to soothe her and say
that he was kidding, I'm going to jail that night.
I don't know how it's going to play out in court.
And I'm not talking about being a tough guy. I'm
saying that's the only appropriate response for me as a
man defending my wife in a situation like that. That's
(30:58):
the only response. I'm not going to the guys say hey,
you stop that don't bite my wife, don't put your
hands on my wife, unhand her. Oh, there's an instant altercation.
For me, that's the only reasonable response because he's physically
assaulting her. Yeah.
Speaker 8 (31:18):
Unfortunately, the response of her going to the police to
tell them what happened in an instant with me, it
would have been the police would have been called over
because there was a mad fight. There would have been, hey,
I'm going to go and tell the police. It's the
police would have been coming in, cuffing me or pulling
(31:38):
me off of said individual. And then it had been like,
what's happening. You're going to jail, Da, da da. This
is oh, hey, okay, he assaulted my wife. This is
self defense. I am putting hands on him because he
thought this was.
Speaker 3 (31:53):
Some type of game. I don't know, like we weren't there.
But from the way it's described, this incident happened in
view of her husband. Let's say it wasn't and she
had to tell him. I am not going to first
confront him and then go to the police who might
be there. This is an instant ass whooping situation, and
(32:16):
it doesn't matter if I lose, it does not matter.
Maybe this is about the man code where we have
to protect those who are important to us. Let's say
it wasn't my wife. Let's say it was my daughter.
You know what I mean. I don't know how it
would be any different. I don't know. There's certain times
where you can't have a conversation.
Speaker 8 (32:34):
Like I don't care if if say this was me
and my son who he was on Cobra Kai and
Martin Cove came up and punched him so hard in
the stomach he threw up or something like that. Right,
I don't care what y'all do on the set, you
assault my son, my child, But someone that I'm there
with that is close to me is like, bro, we're
(32:55):
not on the set, and when this is not playtime.
Speaker 3 (32:58):
You ask fine, it's done a full view of the press.
So I'm not even worried about whether there's evidence of
the assaults right there. It's right there.
Speaker 7 (33:08):
But I was talking about Nick and when it comes
to bodily fluids, because I mean that it's there on
her arm, I'm guessing, I mean, doesn't that count even
like almost like a felony.
Speaker 3 (33:17):
I don't know that. I'll let the police work it
out because that's tomorrow. But today I'm putting foot in ass.
And I've thought about this. I've never been arrested, never
going to jail, with the exception of Disneyland long story.
You probably heard it, but the only time CARDI said,
I haven't heard it. We'll tell you about it said.
(33:40):
But my point is, I do think about what is
it I'm willing to go to jail for under what circumstances?
I don't care about getting a record. When I read
this story, this is one of those times.
Speaker 8 (33:51):
Absolutely, I mean, Mark Ronner has almost come to the
point where he was going to pull a man out
of his car for I think Honky at the long
suffering one's do you mess with you mess with ours?
Speaker 3 (34:09):
Yeah, I gotta deal with that. I hate to what
if he was just playing around? You know.
Speaker 5 (34:16):
The last thing I want to get into is some
whissy whining about cancel culture, which doesn't really exist. But
what if he was just playing around. I've seen people
just have their whole careers ended in the comic industry
for having a couple of drinks at the bar at
night and playing a little grab ass with each other.
Maybe maybe this was all that.
Speaker 3 (34:33):
One, you know, maybe maybe you know, maybe he was drunk,
Maybe he was high, maybe he was only playing. But
he bit my wife and drew blood. I am efing
his ass up. Is it possible that there might have
been an overreaction? Just possible? No, No, No, it could be both.
In other words, he could have meant it in a
playful way. I mean, I.
Speaker 5 (34:53):
Admit that it's normal for us to just have our
eyes roll up to the whites if something happens to
our women and we want to kill in me idiately.
But let me just suggest that that's not always the appropriate.
Speaker 3 (35:04):
Oh I'm not talking about appropriate. I am not even
talking about legal. I'm not even talking about Yeah, no,
I would have done. No one said that.
Speaker 8 (35:10):
No one said that that the response was not irrational.
Speaker 3 (35:15):
Also, this has nothing to do with it with rash
it out. At the end of the day, how old
are you. He's seventy something exactly, so it might be
murdered what I'm doing.
Speaker 5 (35:23):
Well, so maybe he didn't even have his own teeth
and he just gunned her arm.
Speaker 3 (35:26):
No, he drew blood blood.
Speaker 8 (35:28):
All I'm all I'm saying is he could have been
high out of his mind. He could be high and drunk.
He could have thought that that it was all fun
and games because of what they do on the set.
We are in real life, and when he would sober
up or come down off of his high, he would
be saying things.
Speaker 9 (35:47):
Like what what what happened? Why did mister Sharp jump
on me like that? Hey, Twell, I know we got
to go to break. But I remember I talked to
you about this real life situation. This is like maybe
eight or nine years ago.
Speaker 3 (35:58):
Yes, I was bar New Year's Eve with my then
fiance and this woman got into it with my wife
and then her boyfriend came over and put hit his
hands on my then fiance. Next thing I know, three
people are trying to jump me. That's just the way
(36:20):
it goes because when when I saw touch made, I'm
immediately inserting myself by in this situation, all of it. Yes,
so I know we got a break, Dan, you get ready.
