Speaker 2 (00:30):
Welcome to behind the Scenes.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
You're half asked entertainment news with no bullshit with our hosts,
the Baroness and Bear Fjorda only on Talk four Media.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
Hello and welcome to behind the Scenes.
Speaker 4 (00:41):
This is probably Plague Central. I know it's a patient zero,
pation zero.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
There we go.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
I think Alexis was patient zero. This is now week
two of my being in my pajamas and Bear has
joined us.
Speaker 5 (00:56):
I have just started the sickness. Everybody getting it down
with the sickness.
Speaker 4 (01:01):
We've been reported to the CDC for having bird flu.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
They're going to put up around our house here.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
I'd like to mind everyone his bad language. We give
money to the Boys and Girls Club of America, the
Umane Society of America, and Free Mma.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
We swear because we care.
Speaker 5 (01:17):
Speaking of things that need to be quarantined. All of
the palisades should be in a jail. You will definitely, yeah, right.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
Now, Oh my god.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
I do want to give a shout out to first
responders and everyone that's following their volunteering their time, including
our friend of the show, Madison. She has spent a
lot of time volunteering and helping out. It's been interesting, Alexa.
I'm going to do a shout Alexis, would you check
on Madison and make sure she's alive please. She's been volunteering.
(01:48):
Now it's been it's been a couple of days. I
want to make sure she's not on fire.
Speaker 5 (01:51):
We're going to be working with some animal rescues actually
out that way as well, and some local ones here
that have been taking in animals from those shelters.
Speaker 4 (01:57):
The bears helping with animals. I am vomiting into a bucket,
so I'm of no use to anybody. But when I
get better, all I've done. I've donated money, and I've
donated clothes, and I've donated like what I can. But
the reality is I'd like to do more. I just
have to stop vomiting first.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
I've thrown up twice in my mouth in the last
two days.
Speaker 5 (02:15):
I'm getting concerned that it's going to come out one day,
not a lot, just enough to dribble down my throat,
just enough to make it horrendous. I will not be
sucking it back in by it comes out the mouth
that you skip cleaned down.
Speaker 4 (02:28):
Do you swallow it?
Speaker 2 (02:29):
I do swallow. It doesn't come out back?
Speaker 6 (02:34):
What's that?
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Or it comes out?
Speaker 4 (02:35):
Let it come out?
Speaker 2 (02:37):
Why would I do that?
Speaker 4 (02:38):
Rather vomit than swallow vomit?
Speaker 5 (02:40):
I mean, it's already in you to begin with. It's
probably mostly bile too, no stomach and stomach lining and acid.
I want to keep all the inside.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Look really pretty. You're I'm just talking about normal human
bodily functions.
Speaker 4 (02:59):
Nobody vomit it's in their mouth, then swallows it.
Speaker 5 (03:01):
Speaking of vomiting in your mouth and swallowing, and people
have been talking a lot about dittying his cohorts and
uh guess ai. Images are circulating with people claiming that
his his properties or his evil partners properties are all
being burned down in the fires, and unfortunately they're not.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
Yeah, it would be nice if it were.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
It would be really nice if the people inside hopefully
not any victims.
Speaker 5 (03:22):
God knows that shit's probably continuing in someone else's house
under someone else's name, But hopefully I'd like to think
the fires are stopping, are helping some people in some way, right,
we got to look at an upside to this, in
some shape because a thousand people have been in this place.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
Shout out to the National God for doing their bit,
the fire department, and by the way, Salvos Salvation doing
really really well.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Yeah, that's cool.
Speaker 5 (03:45):
I'm glad they're supporting them out there too. I imagine
a lot of different Yes, I drink all my tea. Actually,
do you care if I finish your time? Just making sure.
Speaker 4 (03:55):
So this is what sick looks like in our house.
Speaker 5 (03:57):
It's not terrible. We get tea. I get to pretend
I'm part of a different culture.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
He gets. Look, I'm just saying that I wish it
was going off to do these people. That is not
how you drink out of a teacup at all.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Oh, I know that you want to teach me was
a saucer.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
There was a full tea set.
Speaker 5 (04:16):
Show them how do you drink out of a teacup?
Probably listen, I drink that ship like a beer. That's
fine with me. When she looks at me like that,
it lets me know that I am loved, because if
she didn't care, she wouldn't bother to pay me attention.
(04:36):
So I should continue this pattern of behavior. That's exactly
what that what that is telling me. Gentlemen everywhere, take
advice from me. Not that advice, obviously, no, no, no, no,
speaking of other things going on in the world, advice
that people give out TikTok.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
It's it's going away here in the States.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
They just so, they had the initial vote to buy
or be removed, and then Supreme Court upheld it, and
as far as anyone knows, on the nineteenth, they're out
of here.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
So get a VPN log in from a country that
allowed talks, say don't lose your accounts.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
I'm hoping it's Canada.
Speaker 5 (05:14):
I'd love to be from Canada, which, by the way,
I wonder if they would allow me to still have
my account. Bear Fjorda just logged in from Canada.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Yeah it's the same account. It's the same account, but
it was made in America. Doesn't matter.
Speaker 4 (05:25):
Just log in through a VPN through a different country,
so I don't give you it that's what's going to happen.
Uh do that all tonight? Everyone?
Speaker 5 (05:31):
Oh yeah, guys, please you want to lose taketok account
creator or not? It's I do not support what they're doing.
I really, I don't care what China's doing. Our own
government takes a run information all the time, so it's
whoever's doing it. Someone's stealing your your internet data somewhere,
So I'd rather just not be told what I can
and cannot do as far as my social media platforms
are anywhere.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
Really, I will turn you into a libertarian one day.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
What's that mean? What is that? What is the libertarian?
This contry libertarian?
Speaker 4 (05:56):
It's I don't know. I lean into libertarian politics. I
think your Democrats and your Republicans are stupid.
Speaker 5 (06:01):
Yeah, I said it for the show twice. I'll say
it right now. Whether it's been the left or the right,
the oppression has comes from the top. So I just
since since I heard it on that on that TikTok, ironically,
I am very much for this concept.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
So that is why you need a monarchy.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
No, we don't need a monarchy. You guys have a
great monarchy.
Speaker 4 (06:19):
Key my data, my choice, my data, my choice. Yes,
you need a monarchy.
Speaker 5 (06:25):
There was a guy talking about the monarchy and when
it comes to Americans, they would come up to him
and be like, oh, hey, you know, I listened to
your special I listened to your show, and you're just
salty that we won in seventeen seventy six. And this
guy had to think about it for a second and
occurred to him. He's talking about the revolutionary incident that
we had, as he put it, the revolutionary incident. He
(06:45):
guess it's how you guys see it. And he's like,
we have a lot of ex qulities. We don't know
what the fuck's going on with any of them. It's
not important, it.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
Doesn't, it doesn't. Well, the thing is so England. So
here's actual history. England was at war with France and
they had to choose. Yes, I'm kidding, they had a choice.
They could put their resources into fighting in America or
fighting in England.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 5 (07:08):
A lot of people think that the American Revolutionary terribly
the terrorists on our end. Essentially, Yeah, you were, which
I hate to say is an American, but I have
to recognize gamer is game. Truth is truth that they
that we would have been smashed a kidding me. We
were fighting at most hundreds to thousands, and we had
no practical military experience. It's just upunch of hunter hunters.
(07:31):
Now that said George Washington was scary in the.
Speaker 4 (07:34):
I'm not I'm not saying it was not about us.
You just didn't have enough, George Washington's what you did
have was, and it was was a France that decided
to go to war with England. They have to help
us too, and decided that and England went, well, we
can choose them, or we can choose us.
Speaker 5 (07:49):
We can choose to fight terrorists and lose to a
literal nation a little army, or we can defend ourselves
and let these guys kind of go. But no, George Washington,
we didn't care enough.
Speaker 4 (07:58):
It sucks to say that didn't care enough to keep
you because they owned most of your tobacco holdings, most
of your cotton holdings, most of everything. The only argument
solid place, No, you were not. But I will say
America's done very well for itself and it's no slight
did you until the last fifty years.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
I want to hang on this. I love this fact.
Speaker 5 (08:18):
George Washington was not only a badass, he had to
imagine this guy was unusually tall for the time he
was upwards if he was near six feet, are a
little bit more than that, if I recalling correctly, he
had legitimate not his teeth actually get wooden teeth right, No,
he didn't.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
He had ivory teeth. Ivory teeth. Sorry, he had weird
and they were pulled from slaves as well.
Speaker 5 (08:38):
And he would hide in the woods and trees with
his men, and when he went into battle, he would
charge with a flint lock and a sort screaming yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
He learned that from the Indians.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
So so really yeah, so American. One thing that America
did do right during the Revolutionary War was it actually
went with it hired commanches and went with commanche warfare,
and so it went with yeah, you went with Indian warfare,
and so we didn't have gouerrilla warfare. Line. Yes, we
lined up, everyone shot everyone, blah blah blah. Were idiots,
(09:10):
you guys. You guys were like, we can't win this way,
so let's climb the trees and jump out like the
Indians did. So the Indians came in helped you in
the war. So then you ran the trail of tears.
It was very kind of you.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
Yeah, they taught us how to shoot commanding off.
Speaker 4 (09:25):
Yeah, they saved it. Hang on, they saved you when
you came here starving. They saved you from England. They
were the biggest force that helped saved you from England.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
And we gave them sickness and ate all their food.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
And then, you know, that is how America does it.
I mean, you know the like, what is it the
midnight Ride of Paul Revere.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
No, the guy that did the run was a guy
named Israel Bistle, but he doesn't have a catchy name.
Speaker 4 (09:49):
No. Last year, it was like the last five miles,
it's the Midnight Ride of Paul Revere. Sounds much better
than come on, kiddies and give a whistle. I'll tell
you a story about Israel Bissle.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Poor guy, Israel Bisil ran like twenty.
Speaker 4 (10:02):
He ran most of it galloped.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
I should say, like twenty he saved.
Speaker 4 (10:07):
He actually saved America and nobody knows who he is.
But that is the difference. It's history is written by
the winners of the war. And it's also there's a
great uh, there's a great story, and it's a it's
a film everyone tell me what this film is, and
if you win, I'll give you an ATV. Right at
Offerd Rentals in Palm Springs, California, there's a film. It's
(10:30):
an old Western. And at the very end, the guy
tells the reporter that's doing a story on him that
a lot of what he's telling him isn't true. And
he said, sir, this is the West when history becomes legend,
print the legend. Yes, absolutely, tell me, tell me what
movie that was.
Speaker 5 (10:48):
I was almost excited that cat was about to use
our special cat bed that I bought it from.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
The two cats don't use ANTHI I gift them. They
just spoiled back. They hid.
Speaker 4 (10:58):
They hide in the boxes. And he gets upset. They
won't use the cat bed. Now that we.
Speaker 5 (11:05):
I was sounding so an American. But yes, they use
the boxes that buy from the items in the box.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
They're cats. That is what cats do.
Speaker 5 (11:14):
Cats are my property and they will do as I say.
How bad of an animal owner can I sound in
this moment?
Speaker 4 (11:21):
Yeah, well the one you got from the pounds still
smells like sewage.
Speaker 5 (11:24):
Yeah, he's never gonna We try. We clean and we
bathe and we shave them. Still gets shipped on his tail.
Don't we do our best?
Speaker 2 (11:34):
Really? Much like the Americans in the Revolutionary War who won.
Speaker 4 (11:38):
Yes, he's called so it's so dinamous, named after the
bog of eternal stench.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
Actually plays in very well, all things considered, the.
Speaker 4 (11:48):
Other on this gig, it's from the Dark Crystal.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
It's a little monster the bites. Well, how about speaking of.
Speaker 4 (11:59):
Film monsters that bit in Jim Henderson, you don't know
what he does in the bedroom.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
He could bite.
Speaker 4 (12:05):
Speaking of monsters that bite and Jim you know, and
Jim Henson. Let's welcome to the show Jimmy Starr to
talk about his new show.
Speaker 6 (12:14):
Hey you guys, what's up?
Speaker 4 (12:15):
Hi?
Speaker 5 (12:16):
You always have different glasses on man every time. I
love it, green, pink, and red. At the moment that
I'm I, I switch him out from each one. So
I like all of them. But I have a question.
First of all, I don't know how to sign into
my TikTok. I was just trying to do it right now.
Speaker 6 (12:33):
Yeah, like it's saved on my phone because I only
do it on my phone. I'm afraid to log out
if I won't be able to get back in call lex.
Speaker 4 (12:40):
Yeah, well we're not going to tell you life on
air or someone else is going to own Jimmy Star.
So after the show, we'll get you with LEX, we'll
get you signed in, and we'll get your TikTok moved
over through a VPN.
Speaker 6 (12:50):
Yeah, that's what I want to know, because I don't
know what that means. I know, I don't know what
that means, but like, is that like, uh, like a
privy information.
Speaker 4 (12:59):
Like it's spoofing and telling the carrier that you're in
Canada or Mexico or wherever, so you sign it.
Speaker 6 (13:08):
I saw because somebody did a TikTok video that said
change the country of your country of origin, but I
couldn't figure out how to do it.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
We'll do We'll do it for you.
Speaker 5 (13:19):
It's just basically think of it like a third party
operating system that now provides you with a separate location
based on your H your not U r L.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
What's the IP address?
Speaker 6 (13:32):
Yes, I love that because.
Speaker 4 (13:33):
It's basically, uh, you know, a drag queen that passes.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
Because everybody's going to be doing that, right, don't you think, oh.
Speaker 5 (13:41):
Yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah yeah, there's gonna be a
very big boom in the VPN industry immediately in the
next couple of days.
Speaker 6 (13:49):
I like love it because, like I actually think that
out of all the platforms, I'm probably the weakest on
TikTok and it's my favorite. Oh I love taking was
absolutely my favorite one. I have the lead amount of followers,
but I have the best engagement on TikTok out of
all my platforms, So I like it. If you guys
want to follow me before it gets banned on this
is Jimmy Starr on Instagram and on TikTok and on x.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
I want to do. Just outside of the United States,
you can go follow them on TikTok.
Speaker 6 (14:15):
Still, that's right, And you can follow me outside of
the United States on TikTok, and I'm usually pretty popular
in the UK. Can I make it my VPM from
the UK? I'd rather be k.
Speaker 4 (14:26):
Absolutely.
Speaker 6 (14:27):
My podcast is Jimmy Starr Show with Ron Russell and
it gets a lot of views. We get about a
million views a week out of the UK.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
That's awesome, man.
Speaker 5 (14:35):
But yeah, it's anywhere that they still allow the platform
to the UK and probably all the Commonwealth states, most
of them, I would think right now will still allow
for TikTok.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
To be used in their country.
Speaker 6 (14:46):
Yep, I like love it. I'm Advergin. I'm not big
like you Bear because you guys, I don't know if
you guys know Bears a TikTok superstar. Yeah, you know
he's got a million something followers. I only have like
forty thousand follows. But you know, I'm almost about to
hit five hundred thousand likes, which is a lot, because
you know, likes are a big thing on TikTok. It's hard.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Yeah, likes.
Speaker 6 (15:09):
Yes, you know, everybody gets a lot of views because
I think people cheat and they pay for them. But
I get like fifteen ten to fifteen thousand views, but
each one gets a bunch of likes, and it's the
likes that you want to get.
Speaker 5 (15:19):
It's not Yeah, you won't be able to tell you
that they like what you put out there.
Speaker 4 (15:22):
Well, it's more than that. When you get the views
and you don't get the like to view ratio, it's
very problematic. You need about ten percent of the likes
to the view ratio for the algorithm to like you.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
It does work like that.
Speaker 6 (15:34):
So you guys need to follow Bear. He's at what
are you at? Bear? Fjorda Yes, at Bear Fjorda, you guys,
and that's what your Instagram is.
Speaker 5 (15:41):
Also, yes, everywhere is the exact same thing. I don't
have any differentiation there I'm at.
Speaker 6 (15:46):
This is Jimmy Starr everywhere, you guys. And that's thankfully
because of Alexis and Summer, because I had all these
different names because I couldn't get them all that I
wanted and I got hacked and they helped me put
it all together. So now this is Jimmy Starr everywhere
a lot.
Speaker 4 (16:01):
I like that. Make sure you're following him.
Speaker 6 (16:04):
Yeah, so follow me, you guys.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
You have a new show.
Speaker 6 (16:10):
I have a new entertainment news show, and so I
have a new entertainment site. I'm a big horror movie fan.
The name of the magazine is Dark Frights Magazine and
the website is Darkfrights dot Com. We've only been existence
for six weeks. I just checked this morning. We're number
twenty seven of the top horror websites in the world,
(16:32):
which is pretty good after six weeks. And so I
started this podcast called Darkfright's Horror News with Jimmy Starr,
and it's a five to twelve minute, you know, podcast
writing feature different movies, talk about and play the trailer,
help people if I like him or I don't like him,
and I just I did it, you know, to help
promote the website Darkfrights dot com. And so I've been
(16:55):
doing it for seventeen days, and in seventeen days we've
had about four hundred and fifteen thousand reviews of the
videos or the podcast itself, you know, And we debuted
after the first week at number twenty seven for iTunes
Entertainment News, two spots behind TMZ.
Speaker 5 (17:16):
Good jobs, Christ dude, whatever you know how to make
it work perfectly in this podcast radio show space.
Speaker 6 (17:23):
It's just fun and so it's really just a lot
of fun. Yesterday I did yesterday's show was I did.
I don't know if you guys have seen it. It's
the grossest horror movie ever made, and I actually like it.
I've had all the people from it on my other podcast,
The Jimmy Star Show with Ron Russell when the movie
came out. But I did The Human Centipede one, two,
and three. And in case anybody doesn't know, we probably
(17:47):
don't want to tell exactly what it's about, but you
want to go and if you really like disgusting horror.
You want to go out and watch The Human Centipede.
The first one is the best one, but they're all
very entertaining and crazy as hell. And the guy who
wrote him, his name is Tom six. He's a director
and a writer, and we had him on the show
back in two thousand and nine. Actually, I didn't realize
that's how long I've been doing this. A long time,
(18:09):
and uh and it's a really crazy, crazy horror movie.
And the guy's a sick fuck for thinking it up,
because anybody who could think this movie up, you know,
so google it, you guys to Human Centipede and you know,
and it's kind of like one of those eating shit
kind of movies.
Speaker 5 (18:26):
Did he ever explain why he did it or what
was his minds?
Speaker 4 (18:30):
At my making on, I couldn't even sit through South
Park's version The Human Center Pad, So it was just
I was horrifying, horrify it was.
Speaker 6 (18:41):
It's really horrifying, but you know, it's so sick that
it intrigues me. So I've I've seen all three of them,
and I didn't even realize because I've a lot of
people that like Eric Roberts is in one of them,
and Robert Losorda, Lesardo, Robert Lasardo's in one of them,
you know. And I didn't know those people back when
I saw the film, and now I know those people,
(19:02):
and so it was just kind of interesting and fun
and and and he has another movie called The Onnannia Club,
but I don't think it ever got released. I don't
know if he got banned or white, because I went
on as IMDb to check and see if he's done
anything lately, and he hasn't done anything in like five
or six years, so I don't kind of know what
happened to him. And I don't think those movies, even
though they were very controversial, I don't think they did
(19:23):
well in like theaters and stuff. They were too sick.
Speaker 4 (19:27):
I think they do well now you would have to
go through something like Twisted. I think to get them
out Twisted Pictures would be probably ideal. Do you not
like money?
Speaker 2 (19:46):
I'm just one. It can still make your money, But.
Speaker 4 (19:48):
No, it can't. Not like it, not.
Speaker 6 (19:50):
Like it would if not if it went not if
it actually got.
Speaker 4 (19:52):
Distributed, go to the real No, hell no, I know
that you're a social media guy. Don't touch movies.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Okay, fine, No, movies. Fine, I don't need your stupid movie.
Speaker 4 (20:05):
Because you're in like three of them. But essentially the Yeah,
Twisted Pictures would probably do well for that now, but
I think back in the day it would have been
a competitor because that was around the same time Twisted
was doing their stuff.
Speaker 6 (20:21):
Yeah, I think so. I think you're christ and I
would love to find out, you know, more about what happened.
I'd love to bring him back on The Jimmy Star
Show with Ron Russell. But Ron Russell of The Jimmy
Star Show with Ron Russell would have a heart attack.
Oh okay, he can't understand, Like he thinks it's not
a fan. He can't believe that I would even like
(20:41):
watch it more or less, you know, bring all the
people on, because literally we had all the stars of
the first movie on the show, and the guy who
plays a crazy doctor, Dieter, is also in the other films,
and he was awesome. He was like the coolest guy
ever you know, to bring on a show, and I
think we were probably one of the first shows to
actually like highlight the film. But but nobody will. Just
(21:02):
a lot of people can't stomach it. And I even
I find it hard to stomach. But I also just
think it's so fascinating because I don't even know how
anybody could come up with that concept. It's such a
sick concept. I don't even know how people like come
up to like, like what kind of a brain that
you have that would even come up with some.
Speaker 4 (21:20):
Well, I think it's someone that you you yeah, and
I'm right with you there, I'm you know I I
I don't how where did that? Where was that birth?
Speaker 3 (21:32):
Like?
Speaker 4 (21:32):
Where in your brain did that did that come from?
And why did you think that was a good idea?
Speaker 2 (21:37):
I think regardless, I would want to be the first
person in line.
Speaker 6 (21:40):
Oh no, you've got to be the first person that
you have to be the head of the human SETI
p because if you're not, you're eating shit all day.
So yeah, yeah, But anyway, So it starts writes horror
news and you can find it on all your social
all the different download sites. Well also have a YouTube channel,
which I'm super surprised. I have like three thousand subscribers
(22:01):
or something like on the channel, which is really good
because subscribers are hard.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
For me to get, you know, they're hard for anyone.
YouTube's are very say.
Speaker 4 (22:09):
You chose, You chose once you choose niche. Horror is
a really specific niche. There was a guy that did
a breakdown on House of a Thousand Corpses blew up
immediately but didn't continue. Horror is not something because it's
one of the cheaper forms of entertainment to make, it
requires some of the most creativity, and it appeals to
(22:31):
young viewers. So it's perfect for that cross section to
get you over to social media. But there aren't a
lot of people in that space, and there aren't a
lot of people that truly understand horror.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
In that space.
Speaker 4 (22:41):
There are a lot of fans, but not a lot
of people that truly understand it. So I can see
where you'd be getting the subscribers and why if you're doing.
Speaker 6 (22:49):
I can like love it. It's so much fun. It's
my favorite genre, and I've been fortunate in it that
I have like a lot of friends in it, and
I just think it's I just think it's a lot
of fun. You know, you got to have fun in
whatever you're doing. And I think, uh, just with the
magazine too, you know, so terrifier. You know, basically it's
did you know it's the best independent film, probably like, yeah,
(23:11):
we're just about and next to that one with the
shaky camera. I forgot which which, but I think that,
you know, Bloody Disgusting dot Com is one of the
biggest horror sites in the world, and they basically, you know,
we're a big factor behind the Terrifier films. The fact
that they're also one of the producers on the Terrifier films,
(23:32):
and they helped promote it from back in the inception
when it was a short, you know, many years ago.
And so I just thought, you know, I'm making a
lot of horror films, and if I had my own
horror site and I could get it to blow up
and be big like Bloody Disgusting and like some of
those other sites, you know, I would have a built
in way to help promote my own projects. So that's
why we started it. And anybody who's interested in being
(23:54):
a writer. The magazine doesn't make any money, but if
you want to write about horror movies and horror events
and horror things, please let me know. Because I'm getting writers.
I only have four writers so far, and one of
the next goals would be once we get it going
really good and we're working on promoting all these different
films to do kind of like they do Horrorhound Weekend.
(24:16):
We want to do Dark Fright's Weekend and set up
like a film festival in autograph signings and vendors and stuff,
you know, and develop our own weekend.
Speaker 4 (24:25):
That's you should work with Chris Spelman. He's out here
in the desert. He does Palm Springs Comic Con. He
loves that.
Speaker 6 (24:33):
I would love to do that, So yeah, that would
be a fun thing to do. And I just like
the genre so much. I have another film that I'm
like working on and we're still putting it together. But
I already had an action figure made and I have
a professional one being done in package. But I want
to show you, guys, nobody has seen this. Nobody has
actually seen this. This is bunny Man, and it's going
(24:56):
to be a twist on an urban legend. And this
is the actual bunny Man one that I had made.
But then I have a three and a half inch
one coming in a package and a twelve inch one
made by a guy in England. Actually, but anyway, any
cool look in look how fun?
Speaker 2 (25:13):
Oh that's great, man. It's like the worst version of
Johnny darkar moments.
Speaker 6 (25:18):
Yes, oh yeah, and it's way worse. Believe me, it's
gonna be way worse. It's gonna be a really cool
film and we're putting it together and hopefully we'll shoot
it like in the summer or in the fall.
Speaker 5 (25:30):
With starting this this website, what you're do with the
article is to kind of promote other people who are
trying to make their own either indie horror films or
studio horror films.
Speaker 6 (25:40):
It's everything. It's basically just like bloody disgusting or fank
wory or anything like that. We feature, you know, lots
of different stories on all anything movies coming out. We
do movie reviews, we show trailers, urban legend stories. So
it's pretty much like got every category on it.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
Do you like anybody Slashes amongst movies more?
Speaker 6 (26:04):
Oh? I probably like the Slashers more than the most.
I like them both actually, but you know, my I
really I'm want of those like weirdo people, so like
I really like the Saw movie series. I mean the
fact that I've met a bunch of people, I'm friends
with a bunch of people, and it probably helps. Otherwise,
I really like the old school you know, hell raised
hell Raiser, Friday The Thirteenth, Halloween. Yeah, you know, so
(26:27):
I like I like those, but but uh so, I
kind of like everything though. Basically, I just like anything
if it's got a good story. I know a lot
of the movies nowadays don't really have good stories, like
like Terrifyer, you know, God bless It. It's like, you know,
the film that Never stopped. But that's not really my
kind of movie because there's really no story. It's just blood.
(26:48):
So I'm not as interested in just the blood. But
I give props to the people who are involved with
that because you know, it's it's so successful and they really,
you know, marketed it extremely well. But but I wouldn't
like if I a choice to go see, you know,
a Terrifier movie or something else, so I probably I'll
go see something else, Like i'd remember, go see wolf Man.
I want to go see the Wolfman movie that came
out today.
Speaker 5 (27:09):
What did you think about when the trademarks for like
Winning the Pooh and Mickey Mouse kind of ran out
and people immediately started turning them into horror films.
Speaker 6 (27:19):
I was going to do that, except for that I
didn't jump on it fast enough, so I think that's fine.
I think that's okay. I mean, I think it's kind
of cool. It's kind of like the same thing people
do with well. I don't know if people know that
or not, but like public domain music and public public
domain movies and stuff. You know, I have friends who
who make a great living putting out, you know, records
(27:39):
that are over fifty years old, and I think it's
seventy five years in the UK.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
You know.
Speaker 6 (27:42):
And you can like release Elvis records, and you can
release all kinds of stuff, you know, and you can
do the same thing with movies if they're in public domain.
Plus you can also take the stories that are in
public domain and update them and make your own movies.
So I think it happens a lot. A lot of
the movies that you see are not original stories. They've
been out before.
Speaker 4 (27:59):
I music, oh yeah, my fit though, like the Grims
Tales though, every and I encourage every filmmaker out that,
look at every Disney film, every Disney cartoon they've ever
made was based off of you, kind of a Grims
tail or something like that. Go turn it into a
horror a horror contoon. It will do fabulously, I know.
Speaker 6 (28:20):
I agree. I Actually I have a bunch of different
little projects that I'm trying to get going doing certain
things like that. I can't tell you exactly what because
I don't want anybody to steal the idea. Yeah, but yes,
I think it's I think it's just fun. I think
horror is a lot of fun. It's always been my
favorite genre. And and I hope you know you know
(28:44):
I have one two. I think I have five horror
movies you know, that are slated, and I think at
least two of them i'll get film film this year.
Possibly three of them will get film this year.
Speaker 4 (28:56):
I've always had a sopo for horror. I started and
my scream belongs to are Not Scary Farm when you
go there, mine's the scream you hear, that rolling scream.
Speaker 2 (29:03):
When you go in.
Speaker 4 (29:04):
It was owned by Lloyd Kaufman. He resolved it. But
we're doing Actually, Jimmy is working with us on Poultrygeist,
the musical. It's a rock opera Night of the Living Chicken,
which is fabulous.
Speaker 6 (29:16):
Now I have another plug. Let me give another plug.
If you guys want to see a gree really good.
It's an independent, low budget you know film. But I
have a film that came out in December. It's called
The Beast Inside and it's a self exorcism movie. Stars Spreame, Queen,
Sadie Cats, Loreen Landing from Airplane Too, and Vernon Wells
who was Mad Max and Predator. He was in the
(29:37):
Predator movie back in the day. And so it's called
The Beast in Side. It's on all the like streaming
like platforms.
Speaker 4 (29:44):
Watch it. Would you like to see you watch it?
Speaker 6 (29:47):
But it's a fun for a low budget film, it's
it's a pretty good one. And I have another one
called Purgatorium on TUV, which is one thriller.
Speaker 4 (29:54):
I think low budget horrors are some of the best.
I mean, there's a reason Lloyd made a living. He
was a believe it though in uh, it didn't matter
who made it. Everyone should be you know, film should
be open to everyone. And he had that belief in
the days before YouTube, before everyone could get there, so
he would distribute everything. And boy did he distribute. Yeah,
(30:14):
but I love I think that's the one thing with
horror is it takes some of it's less expensive. You
have to be super creative. But my god, the blood
is sticky.
Speaker 6 (30:25):
Yes, and again basically everything. I mean, I mean if
you think about it now too, I mean, you go on,
go on, go on to be go on some of
these like sites that you can like watch movies. I
mean there's hundreds of movies you never heard of any
of the people. You've never seen any of the people
that are any you know. So it's giving independent you know,
filmmakers an opportunity. You know, I know people who who
(30:47):
make you know, five, ten, fifteen thousand dollars films and
they're good enough to get distributed.
Speaker 4 (30:53):
You know.
Speaker 6 (30:53):
It's not really something I personally want to do, but
I think it's I think everybody's got an opportunity. And
there's really no reason why you say you can't do
anything now. I mean there's even people doing my iPhones.
Speaker 5 (31:04):
Oh yeah, So there's incredible applications and software you can
use just on your iPhone alone for editing and filmmaking.
And if it's a project you want to do it's
a passion of yours, and you have a phone, and
you have friends, not even friends who like what you're doing,
just friends who will do it with you, you can
probably put together something really at least enough to put
(31:24):
into like a Film Festival.
Speaker 4 (31:25):
They they proved with Henry Camvill's mustache. Hit me out
on this. What you can do on a phone is
sometimes better than what you can do in editing. This
but I want three million dollars to fix his mustache.
And some guy grabs his phone, grabs his editing software
and does a much better job, And was like, why
why do you spend all this money?
Speaker 2 (31:44):
Sometimes that comes down to the individual ability.
Speaker 4 (31:46):
It's talent, it's really talent.
Speaker 6 (31:49):
And there are a lot of talented people who I
think if they had an opportunity to make a real film,
they would probably blow away a lot of the other
filmmakers that throw up. But unfortunately, you know, money is
hard to come by, and so not everybody gets the
chance to do that, to make a really good film.
But I work with a with a guy. His name's
(32:09):
Hilton Ariel Ruiz. He was actually on the Jimmy Stars
Show the other day. He made a movie called Zombie
with a Shotgun.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
For a no exact what he's talking about.
Speaker 6 (32:18):
For a no budget movie, you know, he zero has
zero budget. He made a phenomenal movie and he's got
a comic book for it in a web series, and
and you know, the film has like two hundred and
something thousand followers you know in social media, and you know,
he did a really phenomenal job. So uh. And I
have another friend who made a movie called Blind and
(32:39):
I can't tell you how much the budget was, but
you know, people spend you know, more money on coffee
in a year probably than this movie cost. And it
won like every film festival it was in, and it
was phenomenal. You know, when it's normally done.
Speaker 4 (32:52):
I will say, with Zombie with a Shotgun guy, it
should be turned into a TV series much like that
zombie show that everyone was into forever. And when he
wants to do that, have him call me absolutely yeah,
because a TV series out of that brilliant, Like you
can go into a million spin offs, but a TV
series will make a lot more money and will last
longer in the zeitgeist.
Speaker 2 (33:12):
They also made a movie called Hobo with the Shotgun, But.
Speaker 6 (33:15):
That was I knew that that was the year ago.
That was I know who did that? Now I forgot
who was that the Saska sisters or I forgot who
that was I was.
Speaker 5 (33:26):
I was too young when I first heard about it
and saw it, so I have no idea. Who put
that together?
Speaker 6 (33:30):
Oh my gosh, too young, Like I am so old.
It's not even it's funny hobo with a shotgun? Oh no,
Jason Eisner did it, Okay, But I saw that movie.
I think I must know somebody who's in it, because
I definitely know all about it. And yeah, yeah, I
had Rutger Howard. Who Rutger Howard. He's like a you know,
an icon.
Speaker 2 (33:51):
But it's funny.
Speaker 4 (33:52):
I always tell people when they're starting out in the
film industry, if you want to direct, direct to horror,
if you want to be an actress, volunteer your time.
That camera soft, can you fix it? Volunteer your time.
Go work for free on a horror series. I started.
I started in horror. I had been modeling, I did
all of that. I'd done a ton of films. I
made the most money in horror out of anywhere else,
(34:15):
and I got my job working for the president of
Paramount through Lloyd and Ron Jeremy. I was not doing
important he just did horror films. So I think you
make I think horror takes a level of creativity that
most things don't happen. Like James Gunn started in horror
most people you will find who were any good in
(34:36):
this industry started in horror.
Speaker 6 (34:39):
So a lot of the actors and actresses too. Renee
Zellweger was in horror, like a whole bunch of people
were in horror. They don't ask it.
Speaker 4 (34:46):
Yes, George Clooney, Attack of the Tomatoes too, Attack of
Killer Tomatoes too, not even the first one, which I love,
Attack of the Killer Tomatoes Too. They were putting straw
they did. They're putting strawberry jam on pizza. If you
get a chance to see George Clooney an Attack of
the Killer Tomatoes to please, for the love of God,
do it.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
They're putting one on pizza, stropper jam, zach religious. They
deserve it.
Speaker 4 (35:08):
No, No, that's that's because tomato is dangerous because of
the first Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. It had, by
the way, that had one of the greatest scores in
any craptastic horror film. I've ever seen.
Speaker 6 (35:20):
Killer Clowns from Matter Space? Do you like that one? Oh?
Hell yes, I love Killer Clowns from Matter Space absolutely.
Speaker 5 (35:27):
Advertised so many times on Amazon Prime. But I've never
actually sat down.
Speaker 4 (35:31):
But it is it is like, is it.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
Like Mars attacks like there there there are.
Speaker 6 (35:38):
It's kind of spoofy. A little bit stars in it.
Grant Kramer was on our show and his mom was
a famous I forgot who his mom is, but his
mom was a famous actress who was married to uh,
Hugh Hefner. But he's it's a really good movie. That's
why you see when you go to Spirit Halloween they
have like killer clowns, like life sized killer clown things.
(35:59):
You know, it's kind of and spoofy, but it's like
a fun, spoofy horror movie, right.
Speaker 4 (36:04):
It gets that perfect cross section between horror and fun.
And there's very few films that can hit that. And
it's what you were saying earlier, there are very few
that can hit kind of the storyline and the horror.
Now everyone's just gone straight into Gore, and Gore is great.
But if you have no storyline, nobody cares who dies?
Speaker 6 (36:24):
And you think, I think that one hundred percent, Like,
if you're not invested in the people who are dying,
then who cares? So that's my problem with the Terrifier movies,
even though I do wish I was the one who
would have come up with it. But Bunny Bunny Man
is going to kick fucking art the clown's ass.
Speaker 2 (36:41):
I like that.
Speaker 4 (36:43):
The but but that's it. But you you have characters
that people are going to care about. It's we live
in a day and age where even when real people
are shot. You look at some of these awful, awful
moments in the United States where we had, you know,
the Pulse nightclub shooting. For people not to ignore it,
the news had to come in and tell these people's
stories individually for people to actually care and involve themselves.
(37:07):
So when you see when I see filmmakers, I'm like,
if the news has to do that real life events
to get people involved, you have to share stories and
share the humanity. How is film missing? How are you
just going, Okay, we blew someone up, we did great effects.
Everyone will care, right. It's like when DC and Marvel,
when let's make these films as dark as possible.
Speaker 6 (37:30):
But I don't like that they did?
Speaker 4 (37:31):
Then no, I hate it.
Speaker 6 (37:33):
I guess like Batman versus Superman, that was like the
worst one for me out of all of them, because
like Batman and Superman aren't supposed to fight each other.
Speaker 4 (37:41):
The whole point, Superman is the literal good guy of
all good guys. It's the story of Moses, Like it's
the whole point of it was He's just the good guy,
He's the light, and now you're like turning him into
you know this.
Speaker 6 (37:58):
I like that.
Speaker 2 (37:59):
I got give points do really well though.
Speaker 4 (38:02):
They did, But the whole point of it was, there's
always these alternatives like Superman lends in Russia. How does
the world turned out? Superman gets a Kryptonite spike to
the back of his head, it interrupts his brain, is
controlled by dark side, blah blah blah. Fine, I can
get all of that. Cool, but this whole premise was
like Superman is the good guy to end all good guys.
(38:22):
That is the whole point of this damn character. Why
are you're having in fights by Batman over something stupid?
Like Lex Luthor is like, I'm going to put together
this thing that could easily be disproven if two grown
men with you know, moderate intelligence had a conversation. Isn't
Bruce Wayne supposed to be a genius detective? Wasn't that
the whole Batman comic?
Speaker 6 (38:41):
Yes? And I think that, Yeah, I get I guess
because I'm old, you know, like I prefer Christopher Reeves
Superman over any of them excellent. You know. I'm old,
like I loved like I have an actual George Reeves's
action figure as Superman, you know, from the fifties, and
so I kind of just like it made when it
was a little bit more wholesome. Even though I do, like,
(39:02):
you know, I watch all of them and everything, and
I like them, but I prefer you know, I actually
I'm not a big fan of like Deadpool the character itself,
but the Deadpool movies, I mean they're fun. I mean
like they made it fun, you know, it makes it
a lot of fun. I think I think he's in trouble.
Speaker 2 (39:21):
I think he's in trouble. No, no, no, he's been
named in the lawsuit.
Speaker 6 (39:25):
He's like screwed with that Telly guy went out whatever
the guy's name is. Yeah, he's screwed.
Speaker 2 (39:31):
He's Lively.
Speaker 6 (39:32):
They made a mistake. They didn't make sure that they
had good chemistry between that guy and Blake Lively ahead
of time, you know. And I think they made a
lot of mistakes in the casting of that film in
the first.
Speaker 4 (39:42):
Place, the cost I agree with the costing. She tried
to take over the film. Then she publicly lied about it.
Then she tried to sell it like a rom calm.
There was pushback. It was a hugely popular TikTok book.
Then she publicly lied to fans Blake Lively has a
habit of doing all this stuff and tried to cover
it up by saying he essayed her. Except the whole
(40:03):
thing's on camera, and it proves that she was the aggressor.
She was like, the problem is everything's on camera, So
there's like, you know, one hundred and eighty page lawsuits
now come out and they have the receipts, they have
the footage, they have the text messages. You can't lie
like that in today's day and age. If she would
have just taken a heat with everyone saying, you weren't
taking this role seriously enough. You should have read the book.
(40:25):
You should have realized what it was about. Stop, and
she'd have gone, you know what, You're right, I've decided
to go read the book. I'm like, I'd kill her
spin doctor like and you know this, Jimmy. If she
would have just turned around and been like, I should
have read the book.
Speaker 7 (40:38):
I'm really sorry, absolutely, and she's I mean I like
her actually, like as an actress and everything and I
think that, you know, I think her best movie is
that one where she's like going to get eaten by
the shark, or she's stuck out on the reef and
she's going to eat by the shark.
Speaker 6 (40:54):
It's a great movie. It's basically the whole movie is
just her. It's just her in the Shark. But it
was a really good movie. She is a really good
actress and actually used to be really pretty good friends
with her brother, her stepbrother Jason Lively from the National
Lampoons Vacation, you know movies, or I think he was
in European Vacation or one of those. I think she's
a great actress. But I think they're all in trouble now.
(41:15):
And I think there's like a four hundred million dollar lawsuit,
and I think it's really unfortunate because really things shouldn't
get to be this way.
Speaker 2 (41:23):
It wouldn't have happened. It's funny.
Speaker 4 (41:25):
He wanted so, the guy that was directed the movie
wanted the movie to do well enough that he hid everything.
He covered up her bad behavior, He covered up Ryan
Reynolds's bad behavior. Like he was just like, Nope, I
want the movie to come out and do well. I'm like,
when people are lying for you and covering up the
fact that you were a jerk, don't keep poking.
Speaker 2 (41:44):
Okay, what did Ryan Renald do this so bad?
Speaker 4 (41:45):
I thought he was just illegally He rewrote the film,
pressured the guy into doing it, tried to buy the
film out from under him, went to Sony and basically
threatened to pull from his own contracts if there wasn't help,
and unfortunately he did all riding.
Speaker 2 (42:01):
That's really shitty? Is this is this the does this
film belonged to.
Speaker 4 (42:04):
The It belongs to the bel.
Speaker 6 (42:09):
And it belongs to things unfortunate. But you know what
big egos? I think he got some really big egos.
And let's face it, like whether you like Ryan Reynolds
or you don't like Ryan Reynolds, he is a freaking
like business genius. I mean he's he really is. He's
a genius. He makes a lot of money. People you know,
(42:31):
listen to him. I personally like his acting. He's done
some really great movies. I don't know that I would
like him as a person. Maybe not quite so much
because I don't know if I could handle the ego.
But then I don't like anybody with a really big egos.
You know, we all poop the same, so like, let's
be nice to everybody. Everybody could be nice, you know,
we don't all need too good at something.
Speaker 2 (42:55):
Tolet dude, we're not well.
Speaker 4 (42:58):
The big thing with this is it looks like I
read through the lawsuit. It was like one hundred and
eighty pages, one hundred and seventy nine pages. It took
a minute, But it looks like the big crux of
it is Ryan Reynolds went after this guy, who's Blake
Lively lied to him, because there are records of she
I told my husband this, I told my husband this.
I told my husband this. So she told her husband
all this nonsense, right, and then the receipts show that
(43:20):
she was lying to Ryan Reynolds as well. So it
doesn't look like Ryan Reynolds went after this guy for
no reason. As terrible as that sounds, it looks like them.
Speaker 6 (43:30):
Around Prince Charming to save his wife pretty much.
Speaker 4 (43:34):
And it's so and it sounds like Taylor Swift jumped
in to help Blake Lively, who's also named in this lawsuit,
and so everyone's jumped in for this chick, except she
was lying. And that's it, And so she's now got
these two people whose career are on the hook and
the receipt and audience is turning on them. And this
(43:56):
guy that put this movie together, he's the one that
bought the book. He'd spent five years at adapting it,
the whole thing. He even tried to cover up her
bad behavior. So the film went well, and she wouldn't stop.
And it was the moment I'm like, this one person
screwed everything up for like three different people off the
bat and I'm.
Speaker 6 (44:14):
Looking watch it. Did you see the movie?
Speaker 2 (44:19):
No one I know has heard a movie.
Speaker 4 (44:21):
It's not very good the parts. Apparently they released her cut,
and now that they're re releasing his cut, it is
identical to the book. Everyone loves his cut because it
was She demanded her cut be released through Sony. It
was terrible. It tanked because she tried to turn it
into a rom com.
Speaker 6 (44:39):
Yeah, that's just terrible.
Speaker 4 (44:41):
So it's on domestic, it's on DV.
Speaker 2 (44:43):
Like she would care so much. It has to be
a colleague.
Speaker 4 (44:48):
Because because she never read the book, she didn't understand
the fan base.
Speaker 5 (44:52):
Why would be because she thought it would make money,
And that's her and that's kind of her wheelhouse, and
it's not a slight that can be her wheelhouse. I
kind of think people just in her brain, she's like, no,
people need to see me as sexy because that's what
I think I am.
Speaker 4 (45:07):
So that's pretty much what happened.
Speaker 2 (45:09):
They need to love me. They fought over.
Speaker 4 (45:12):
One of the things they fought over is she didn't
think her clothes were high style enough, and he was like,
you're a small business owner. That's broke, and so it
turned into this big problematic thing where he tried to
stay with the bulls. Did she hid the whole thing?
And then she lied to the husband, lied to Taylor Swift,
and now got Taylor Swift and Ryan Reynolds pulled into
(45:32):
this lawsuit.
Speaker 2 (45:33):
So but I get it.
Speaker 4 (45:34):
It's one of those If she'd have pulled it off,
she'd have looked like gold. The flip side is she
couldn't handle the public pressure with her press tour because
she didn't know the book, and so when people asked
her about DV She's like, let's talk about my dress.
Speaker 6 (45:50):
Yeah, that's just terrible. I love because there's a lot
of books that are so I'm like, I'm the geekiest
I'm an old geek, but that's for me. Like Harry
Potter and and the Twilight and the Twilight movies, they're
like two of my favorite They're like my go to
is like, if I'm in a shitty mood, i'm working,
I'll play them just because I like them so much,
and I like both of them, and I think they're
both that.
Speaker 4 (46:10):
Great adoptions, great adoptions. Both are great adoptions. Here's another one.
We were talking about Superman before. Henry Cavill was the Stephanie,
the writer from Twilight's first choice for Edward. The director
didn't want him. They wanted Robert Pattinson, which I think
was an excellent casting choice. It was too excellent, excellent job.
(46:31):
No slight to Cavil. We want to use him for
one of our projects. So I love the guy. But
Robert Pattinson for show was the right was the right
choice there. But essentially those two books, like you but
you just hit the nail on the head. They were
very true to the book adaptions.
Speaker 6 (46:47):
I think that's the way things need to be. Though,
things need to be true to the book. If the
book has a big fan base, you know, and you
start changing everything. Because I've seen a lot of books.
I read the book and then I watched the movie.
So I didn't read the book of Percy Jackson, but
I saw the movie and I didn't have anything to
compare it to really, so I don't know that I
knew that it was. It wasn't a great movie anyway, but.
Speaker 2 (47:08):
The book.
Speaker 4 (47:10):
So the book, it was Harry Potter. It was this
twelve year old kid. They've got like a fifteen year
old act.
Speaker 2 (47:15):
It was bad. It should have been done like you
named it.
Speaker 4 (47:17):
Harry Potter. One of the best adaptations. And I know
everyone's against JK. Rowling. I particularly love her. I don't
agree with all her politics, but I actually agree with
a fair amount of it.
Speaker 6 (47:27):
Oh, I love it too. I think she's terrific and
I don't agree with I don't agree with everything on anybody,
but I think that. And you can't deny the fact
that she wrote one of the greatest stories ever, friendly
stories ever. And I think she's richer than the Queen
of England.
Speaker 4 (47:43):
She is, and she got everyone. She got everyone into
reading in a time where people were not reading, where
children were more interested in video games and cell phones.
She got everyone into reading. So I will never ever
knock that. And apparently at the London station now they
have a trolley going halfway through the wall where it's
his platform nine and three quarters so people can take photos.
(48:03):
Like she's made that big an impact you have. Diagon
Alley has been put at Universal Studios, it's been put
in England. It's she has created a phenomenon. I mean,
it's essentially the dream. It's what I want to do
with films. It's what Jimmy here, what Jimmy Star wants
to do with films.
Speaker 2 (48:19):
It is the dream.
Speaker 4 (48:20):
We all want that impact.
Speaker 5 (48:21):
But you know, absolutely in fifty sixty years, some asshole
when the when the intellectual property is up, is going
to remake it.
Speaker 4 (48:32):
My favorite right now though, is they turned around and
Jimmy Alla free siate this. They turn around, They're like, okay,
we're turning the Curse Child into a movie. They're like,
who's playing the lead characters? They're like the same actors
that played them as kids. They're like, no, these characters
are like forty no, who's going to play the actors?
Speaker 2 (48:46):
I'm like, you understand.
Speaker 5 (48:48):
These It's now Harry's the kid we see in the
end of Harry Potter I'm like.
Speaker 4 (48:56):
Daniel Radcliffe is playing Harry Potter. No, that's it, Daniel
rad Cliff is playing Harry Potter. And it's that moment
I'm like, how old do you think?
Speaker 6 (49:06):
I'm happy? Yeah, Like, that's just ridiculous to do things
like that. I do like it when they do cameos
of the people who used to be in it, you know,
and then they do it like another movie and they
bring the people in, you know, even like even like
when they did Lost in Space, which was a terrible movie,
but they have they had cameos though by people from
the original series, you know that I thought was kind
(49:26):
of I like that.
Speaker 4 (49:27):
But matt LeBlanc, who better than Matt LeBlanc Lost in
Space to play the captain Joey.
Speaker 6 (49:40):
Was terrible. It was terrible. Unfortunately, that movie was terrible.
But I was a big Loss in Space fan as
a kid, like I used to watch it all the time.
And the guy who played Don Adams or whatever, Major
Adams or whatever, the guy's named Don something like, I
was friends with him for a long time. He passed recently,
and uh, I think that I just think that was
(50:03):
a fun thing, you know, things from my childhood because
I liked all that stuff a lot, but Harry Potter
and Twilight are my favorite. Whatsoever. I was on a
movie meeting yesterday and one of the guys is an
Emmy winning like stunt guy or whatever, and he told me,
you know that he was friends with Taylor Lautner, and
I was like, oh my god, I want to get
Taylor Lighter in the movie. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (50:22):
Yeah, he's actually he's actually a strong actor.
Speaker 6 (50:27):
He's a strong actor. I think he kind of got
screwed a little bit.
Speaker 4 (50:30):
Oh yes, I gave him films. I were trying to
turn him into a hot throb, and he was more
of a comedic, like more more of a character actor,
like when you go back to Shockboy and all that stuff.
He's been acting since he was a kid. People need
to cut him a.
Speaker 6 (50:43):
Break, absolutely, but I would love to work with him.
What do you guys think of Robert Pattinson as Batman?
I don't know how much time we have, but did
you guys like Robert Pattinson as Batman?
Speaker 5 (50:52):
I don't think it? Okay, I didn't particularly care from
his Batman. I never liked any of the DC actual
like non animated movies, to.
Speaker 2 (51:02):
Be honest, with you. I like you very well, Christian.
Speaker 5 (51:05):
That Fleck was really good too, right, It wasn't bad.
It was just a different kind of band. We saw
a young Batman just starting out, as you know, he's
kind of going through the ropes of figuring out his
troubles and his problems. But it's really I feel like
it lacks that story. We give it damn about the people.
It's it's a lot of it's too.
Speaker 2 (51:25):
Dark for me.
Speaker 6 (51:26):
I really like the old life Michael Keaton Batman.
Speaker 5 (51:29):
That was really Adam must always be the best bad Adam.
Speaker 4 (51:34):
Oh smack. Yeah, like that was excellent. We are tell
everyone where to find your new horror site. That is
really important. I got to tell you. We decided to
drive Jimmy. We talked from the other day. He said
he had a new site. So it's like, come talk
about it.

Speaker 2 (00:39):
Hello and welcome to behind the Scenes.
Speaker 4 (00:41):
This is probably Plague Central. I know it's a patient zero,
pation zero.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
There we go.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
I think Alexis was patient zero. This is now week
two of my being in my pajamas and Bear has
joined us.
Speaker 5 (00:56):
I have just started the sickness. Everybody getting it down
with the sickness.
Speaker 4 (01:01):
We've been reported to the CDC for having bird flu.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
They're going to put up around our house here.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
I'd like to mind everyone his bad language. We give
money to the Boys and Girls Club of America, the
Umane Society of America, and Free Mma.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
We swear because we care.
Speaker 5 (01:17):
Speaking of things that need to be quarantined. All of
the palisades should be in a jail. You will definitely, yeah, right.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
Now, Oh my god.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
I do want to give a shout out to first
responders and everyone that's following their volunteering their time, including
our friend of the show, Madison. She has spent a
lot of time volunteering and helping out. It's been interesting, Alexa.
I'm going to do a shout Alexis, would you check
on Madison and make sure she's alive please. She's been volunteering.
(01:48):
Now it's been it's been a couple of days. I
want to make sure she's not on fire.
Speaker 5 (01:51):
We're going to be working with some animal rescues actually
out that way as well, and some local ones here
that have been taking in animals from those shelters.
Speaker 4 (01:57):
The bears helping with animals. I am vomiting into a bucket,
so I'm of no use to anybody. But when I
get better, all I've done. I've donated money, and I've
donated clothes, and I've donated like what I can. But
the reality is I'd like to do more. I just
have to stop vomiting first.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
I've thrown up twice in my mouth in the last
two days.
Speaker 5 (02:15):
I'm getting concerned that it's going to come out one day,
not a lot, just enough to dribble down my throat,
just enough to make it horrendous. I will not be
sucking it back in by it comes out the mouth
that you skip cleaned down.
Speaker 4 (02:28):
Do you swallow it?
Speaker 2 (02:29):
I do swallow. It doesn't come out back?
Speaker 6 (02:34):
What's that?
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Or it comes out?
Speaker 4 (02:35):
Let it come out?
Speaker 2 (02:37):
Why would I do that?
Speaker 4 (02:38):
Rather vomit than swallow vomit?
Speaker 5 (02:40):
I mean, it's already in you to begin with. It's
probably mostly bile too, no stomach and stomach lining and acid.
I want to keep all the inside.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Look really pretty. You're I'm just talking about normal human
bodily functions.
Speaker 4 (02:59):
Nobody vomit it's in their mouth, then swallows it.
Speaker 5 (03:01):
Speaking of vomiting in your mouth and swallowing, and people
have been talking a lot about dittying his cohorts and
uh guess ai. Images are circulating with people claiming that
his his properties or his evil partners properties are all
being burned down in the fires, and unfortunately they're not.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
Yeah, it would be nice if it were.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
It would be really nice if the people inside hopefully
not any victims.
Speaker 5 (03:22):
God knows that shit's probably continuing in someone else's house
under someone else's name, But hopefully I'd like to think
the fires are stopping, are helping some people in some way, right,
we got to look at an upside to this, in
some shape because a thousand people have been in this place.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
Shout out to the National God for doing their bit,
the fire department, and by the way, Salvos Salvation doing
really really well.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Yeah, that's cool.
Speaker 5 (03:45):
I'm glad they're supporting them out there too. I imagine
a lot of different Yes, I drink all my tea. Actually,
do you care if I finish your time? Just making sure.
Speaker 4 (03:55):
So this is what sick looks like in our house.
Speaker 5 (03:57):
It's not terrible. We get tea. I get to pretend
I'm part of a different culture.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
He gets. Look, I'm just saying that I wish it
was going off to do these people. That is not
how you drink out of a teacup at all.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Oh, I know that you want to teach me was
a saucer.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
There was a full tea set.
Speaker 5 (04:16):
Show them how do you drink out of a teacup?
Probably listen, I drink that ship like a beer. That's
fine with me. When she looks at me like that,
it lets me know that I am loved, because if
she didn't care, she wouldn't bother to pay me attention.
(04:36):
So I should continue this pattern of behavior. That's exactly
what that what that is telling me. Gentlemen everywhere, take
advice from me. Not that advice, obviously, no, no, no, no,
speaking of other things going on in the world, advice
that people give out TikTok.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
It's it's going away here in the States.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
They just so, they had the initial vote to buy
or be removed, and then Supreme Court upheld it, and
as far as anyone knows, on the nineteenth, they're out
of here.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
So get a VPN log in from a country that
allowed talks, say don't lose your accounts.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
I'm hoping it's Canada.
Speaker 5 (05:14):
I'd love to be from Canada, which, by the way,
I wonder if they would allow me to still have
my account. Bear Fjorda just logged in from Canada.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Yeah it's the same account. It's the same account, but
it was made in America. Doesn't matter.
Speaker 4 (05:25):
Just log in through a VPN through a different country,
so I don't give you it that's what's going to happen.
Uh do that all tonight? Everyone?
Speaker 5 (05:31):
Oh yeah, guys, please you want to lose taketok account
creator or not? It's I do not support what they're doing.
I really, I don't care what China's doing. Our own
government takes a run information all the time, so it's
whoever's doing it. Someone's stealing your your internet data somewhere,
So I'd rather just not be told what I can
and cannot do as far as my social media platforms
are anywhere.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
Really, I will turn you into a libertarian one day.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
What's that mean? What is that? What is the libertarian?
This contry libertarian?
Speaker 4 (05:56):
It's I don't know. I lean into libertarian politics. I
think your Democrats and your Republicans are stupid.
Speaker 5 (06:01):
Yeah, I said it for the show twice. I'll say
it right now. Whether it's been the left or the right,
the oppression has comes from the top. So I just
since since I heard it on that on that TikTok, ironically,
I am very much for this concept.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
So that is why you need a monarchy.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
No, we don't need a monarchy. You guys have a
great monarchy.
Speaker 4 (06:19):
Key my data, my choice, my data, my choice. Yes,
you need a monarchy.
Speaker 5 (06:25):
There was a guy talking about the monarchy and when
it comes to Americans, they would come up to him
and be like, oh, hey, you know, I listened to
your special I listened to your show, and you're just
salty that we won in seventeen seventy six. And this
guy had to think about it for a second and
occurred to him. He's talking about the revolutionary incident that
we had, as he put it, the revolutionary incident. He
(06:45):
guess it's how you guys see it. And he's like,
we have a lot of ex qulities. We don't know
what the fuck's going on with any of them. It's
not important, it.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
Doesn't, it doesn't. Well, the thing is so England. So
here's actual history. England was at war with France and
they had to choose. Yes, I'm kidding, they had a choice.
They could put their resources into fighting in America or
fighting in England.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 5 (07:08):
A lot of people think that the American Revolutionary terribly
the terrorists on our end. Essentially, Yeah, you were, which
I hate to say is an American, but I have
to recognize gamer is game. Truth is truth that they
that we would have been smashed a kidding me. We
were fighting at most hundreds to thousands, and we had
no practical military experience. It's just upunch of hunter hunters.
(07:31):
Now that said George Washington was scary in the.
Speaker 4 (07:34):
I'm not I'm not saying it was not about us.
You just didn't have enough, George Washington's what you did
have was, and it was was a France that decided
to go to war with England. They have to help
us too, and decided that and England went, well, we
can choose them, or we can choose us.
Speaker 5 (07:49):
We can choose to fight terrorists and lose to a
literal nation a little army, or we can defend ourselves
and let these guys kind of go. But no, George Washington,
we didn't care enough.
Speaker 4 (07:58):
It sucks to say that didn't care enough to keep
you because they owned most of your tobacco holdings, most
of your cotton holdings, most of everything. The only argument
solid place, No, you were not. But I will say
America's done very well for itself and it's no slight
did you until the last fifty years.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
I want to hang on this. I love this fact.
Speaker 5 (08:18):
George Washington was not only a badass, he had to
imagine this guy was unusually tall for the time he
was upwards if he was near six feet, are a
little bit more than that, if I recalling correctly, he
had legitimate not his teeth actually get wooden teeth right, No,
he didn't.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
He had ivory teeth. Ivory teeth. Sorry, he had weird
and they were pulled from slaves as well.
Speaker 5 (08:38):
And he would hide in the woods and trees with
his men, and when he went into battle, he would
charge with a flint lock and a sort screaming yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
He learned that from the Indians.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
So so really yeah, so American. One thing that America
did do right during the Revolutionary War was it actually
went with it hired commanches and went with commanche warfare,
and so it went with yeah, you went with Indian warfare,
and so we didn't have gouerrilla warfare. Line. Yes, we
lined up, everyone shot everyone, blah blah blah. Were idiots,
(09:10):
you guys. You guys were like, we can't win this way,
so let's climb the trees and jump out like the
Indians did. So the Indians came in helped you in
the war. So then you ran the trail of tears.
It was very kind of you.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
Yeah, they taught us how to shoot commanding off.
Speaker 4 (09:25):
Yeah, they saved it. Hang on, they saved you when
you came here starving. They saved you from England. They
were the biggest force that helped saved you from England.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
And we gave them sickness and ate all their food.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
And then, you know, that is how America does it.
I mean, you know the like, what is it the
midnight Ride of Paul Revere.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
No, the guy that did the run was a guy
named Israel Bistle, but he doesn't have a catchy name.
Speaker 4 (09:49):
No. Last year, it was like the last five miles,
it's the Midnight Ride of Paul Revere. Sounds much better
than come on, kiddies and give a whistle. I'll tell
you a story about Israel Bissle.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Poor guy, Israel Bisil ran like twenty.
Speaker 4 (10:02):
He ran most of it galloped.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
I should say, like twenty he saved.
Speaker 4 (10:07):
He actually saved America and nobody knows who he is.
But that is the difference. It's history is written by
the winners of the war. And it's also there's a
great uh, there's a great story, and it's a it's
a film everyone tell me what this film is, and
if you win, I'll give you an ATV. Right at
Offerd Rentals in Palm Springs, California, there's a film. It's
(10:30):
an old Western. And at the very end, the guy
tells the reporter that's doing a story on him that
a lot of what he's telling him isn't true. And
he said, sir, this is the West when history becomes legend,
print the legend. Yes, absolutely, tell me, tell me what
movie that was.
Speaker 5 (10:48):
I was almost excited that cat was about to use
our special cat bed that I bought it from.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
The two cats don't use ANTHI I gift them. They
just spoiled back. They hid.
Speaker 4 (10:58):
They hide in the boxes. And he gets upset. They
won't use the cat bed. Now that we.
Speaker 5 (11:05):
I was sounding so an American. But yes, they use
the boxes that buy from the items in the box.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
They're cats. That is what cats do.
Speaker 5 (11:14):
Cats are my property and they will do as I say.
How bad of an animal owner can I sound in
this moment?
Speaker 4 (11:21):
Yeah, well the one you got from the pounds still
smells like sewage.
Speaker 5 (11:24):
Yeah, he's never gonna We try. We clean and we
bathe and we shave them. Still gets shipped on his tail.
Don't we do our best?
Speaker 2 (11:34):
Really? Much like the Americans in the Revolutionary War who won.
Speaker 4 (11:38):
Yes, he's called so it's so dinamous, named after the
bog of eternal stench.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
Actually plays in very well, all things considered, the.
Speaker 4 (11:48):
Other on this gig, it's from the Dark Crystal.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
It's a little monster the bites. Well, how about speaking of.
Speaker 4 (11:59):
Film monsters that bit in Jim Henderson, you don't know
what he does in the bedroom.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
He could bite.
Speaker 4 (12:05):
Speaking of monsters that bite and Jim you know, and
Jim Henson. Let's welcome to the show Jimmy Starr to
talk about his new show.
Speaker 6 (12:14):
Hey you guys, what's up?
Speaker 4 (12:15):
Hi?
Speaker 5 (12:16):
You always have different glasses on man every time. I
love it, green, pink, and red. At the moment that
I'm I, I switch him out from each one. So
I like all of them. But I have a question.
First of all, I don't know how to sign into
my TikTok. I was just trying to do it right now.
Speaker 6 (12:33):
Yeah, like it's saved on my phone because I only
do it on my phone. I'm afraid to log out
if I won't be able to get back in call lex.
Speaker 4 (12:40):
Yeah, well we're not going to tell you life on
air or someone else is going to own Jimmy Star.
So after the show, we'll get you with LEX, we'll
get you signed in, and we'll get your TikTok moved
over through a VPN.
Speaker 6 (12:50):
Yeah, that's what I want to know, because I don't
know what that means. I know, I don't know what
that means, but like, is that like, uh, like a
privy information.
Speaker 4 (12:59):
Like it's spoofing and telling the carrier that you're in
Canada or Mexico or wherever, so you sign it.
Speaker 6 (13:08):
I saw because somebody did a TikTok video that said
change the country of your country of origin, but I
couldn't figure out how to do it.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
We'll do We'll do it for you.
Speaker 5 (13:19):
It's just basically think of it like a third party
operating system that now provides you with a separate location
based on your H your not U r L.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
What's the IP address?
Speaker 6 (13:32):
Yes, I love that because.
Speaker 4 (13:33):
It's basically, uh, you know, a drag queen that passes.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
Because everybody's going to be doing that, right, don't you think, oh.
Speaker 5 (13:41):
Yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah yeah, there's gonna be a
very big boom in the VPN industry immediately in the
next couple of days.
Speaker 6 (13:49):
I like love it because, like I actually think that
out of all the platforms, I'm probably the weakest on
TikTok and it's my favorite. Oh I love taking was
absolutely my favorite one. I have the lead amount of followers,
but I have the best engagement on TikTok out of
all my platforms, So I like it. If you guys
want to follow me before it gets banned on this
is Jimmy Starr on Instagram and on TikTok and on x.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
I want to do. Just outside of the United States,
you can go follow them on TikTok.
Speaker 6 (14:15):
Still, that's right, And you can follow me outside of
the United States on TikTok, and I'm usually pretty popular
in the UK. Can I make it my VPM from
the UK? I'd rather be k.
Speaker 4 (14:26):
Absolutely.
Speaker 6 (14:27):
My podcast is Jimmy Starr Show with Ron Russell and
it gets a lot of views. We get about a
million views a week out of the UK.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
That's awesome, man.
Speaker 5 (14:35):
But yeah, it's anywhere that they still allow the platform
to the UK and probably all the Commonwealth states, most
of them, I would think right now will still allow
for TikTok.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
To be used in their country.
Speaker 6 (14:46):
Yep, I like love it. I'm Advergin. I'm not big
like you Bear because you guys, I don't know if
you guys know Bears a TikTok superstar. Yeah, you know
he's got a million something followers. I only have like
forty thousand follows. But you know, I'm almost about to
hit five hundred thousand likes, which is a lot, because
you know, likes are a big thing on TikTok. It's hard.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Yeah, likes.
Speaker 6 (15:09):
Yes, you know, everybody gets a lot of views because
I think people cheat and they pay for them. But
I get like fifteen ten to fifteen thousand views, but
each one gets a bunch of likes, and it's the
likes that you want to get.
Speaker 5 (15:19):
It's not Yeah, you won't be able to tell you
that they like what you put out there.
Speaker 4 (15:22):
Well, it's more than that. When you get the views
and you don't get the like to view ratio, it's
very problematic. You need about ten percent of the likes
to the view ratio for the algorithm to like you.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
It does work like that.
Speaker 6 (15:34):
So you guys need to follow Bear. He's at what
are you at? Bear? Fjorda Yes, at Bear Fjorda, you guys,
and that's what your Instagram is.
Speaker 5 (15:41):
Also, yes, everywhere is the exact same thing. I don't
have any differentiation there I'm at.
Speaker 6 (15:46):
This is Jimmy Starr everywhere, you guys. And that's thankfully
because of Alexis and Summer, because I had all these
different names because I couldn't get them all that I
wanted and I got hacked and they helped me put
it all together. So now this is Jimmy Starr everywhere
a lot.
Speaker 4 (16:01):
I like that. Make sure you're following him.
Speaker 6 (16:04):
Yeah, so follow me, you guys.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
You have a new show.
Speaker 6 (16:10):
I have a new entertainment news show, and so I
have a new entertainment site. I'm a big horror movie fan.
The name of the magazine is Dark Frights Magazine and
the website is Darkfrights dot Com. We've only been existence
for six weeks. I just checked this morning. We're number
twenty seven of the top horror websites in the world,
(16:32):
which is pretty good after six weeks. And so I
started this podcast called Darkfright's Horror News with Jimmy Starr,
and it's a five to twelve minute, you know, podcast
writing feature different movies, talk about and play the trailer,
help people if I like him or I don't like him,
and I just I did it, you know, to help
promote the website Darkfrights dot com. And so I've been
(16:55):
doing it for seventeen days, and in seventeen days we've
had about four hundred and fifteen thousand reviews of the
videos or the podcast itself, you know, And we debuted
after the first week at number twenty seven for iTunes
Entertainment News, two spots behind TMZ.
Speaker 5 (17:16):
Good jobs, Christ dude, whatever you know how to make
it work perfectly in this podcast radio show space.
Speaker 6 (17:23):
It's just fun and so it's really just a lot
of fun. Yesterday I did yesterday's show was I did.
I don't know if you guys have seen it. It's
the grossest horror movie ever made, and I actually like it.
I've had all the people from it on my other podcast,
The Jimmy Star Show with Ron Russell when the movie
came out. But I did The Human Centipede one, two,
and three. And in case anybody doesn't know, we probably
(17:47):
don't want to tell exactly what it's about, but you
want to go and if you really like disgusting horror.
You want to go out and watch The Human Centipede.
The first one is the best one, but they're all
very entertaining and crazy as hell. And the guy who
wrote him, his name is Tom six. He's a director
and a writer, and we had him on the show
back in two thousand and nine. Actually, I didn't realize
that's how long I've been doing this. A long time,
(18:09):
and uh and it's a really crazy, crazy horror movie.
And the guy's a sick fuck for thinking it up,
because anybody who could think this movie up, you know,
so google it, you guys to Human Centipede and you know,
and it's kind of like one of those eating shit
kind of movies.
Speaker 5 (18:26):
Did he ever explain why he did it or what
was his minds?
Speaker 4 (18:30):
At my making on, I couldn't even sit through South
Park's version The Human Center Pad, So it was just
I was horrifying, horrify it was.
Speaker 6 (18:41):
It's really horrifying, but you know, it's so sick that
it intrigues me. So I've I've seen all three of them,
and I didn't even realize because I've a lot of
people that like Eric Roberts is in one of them,
and Robert Losorda, Lesardo, Robert Lasardo's in one of them,
you know. And I didn't know those people back when
I saw the film, and now I know those people,
(19:02):
and so it was just kind of interesting and fun
and and and he has another movie called The Onnannia Club,
but I don't think it ever got released. I don't
know if he got banned or white, because I went
on as IMDb to check and see if he's done
anything lately, and he hasn't done anything in like five
or six years, so I don't kind of know what
happened to him. And I don't think those movies, even
though they were very controversial, I don't think they did
(19:23):
well in like theaters and stuff. They were too sick.
Speaker 4 (19:27):
I think they do well now you would have to
go through something like Twisted. I think to get them
out Twisted Pictures would be probably ideal. Do you not
like money?
Speaker 2 (19:46):
I'm just one. It can still make your money, But.
Speaker 4 (19:48):
No, it can't. Not like it, not.
Speaker 6 (19:50):
Like it would if not if it went not if
it actually got.
Speaker 4 (19:52):
Distributed, go to the real No, hell no, I know
that you're a social media guy. Don't touch movies.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Okay, fine, No, movies. Fine, I don't need your stupid movie.
Speaker 4 (20:05):
Because you're in like three of them. But essentially the Yeah,
Twisted Pictures would probably do well for that now, but
I think back in the day it would have been
a competitor because that was around the same time Twisted
was doing their stuff.
Speaker 6 (20:21):
Yeah, I think so. I think you're christ and I
would love to find out, you know, more about what happened.
I'd love to bring him back on The Jimmy Star
Show with Ron Russell. But Ron Russell of The Jimmy
Star Show with Ron Russell would have a heart attack.
Oh okay, he can't understand, Like he thinks it's not
a fan. He can't believe that I would even like
(20:41):
watch it more or less, you know, bring all the
people on, because literally we had all the stars of
the first movie on the show, and the guy who
plays a crazy doctor, Dieter, is also in the other films,
and he was awesome. He was like the coolest guy
ever you know, to bring on a show, and I
think we were probably one of the first shows to
actually like highlight the film. But but nobody will. Just
(21:02):
a lot of people can't stomach it. And I even
I find it hard to stomach. But I also just
think it's so fascinating because I don't even know how
anybody could come up with that concept. It's such a
sick concept. I don't even know how people like come
up to like, like what kind of a brain that
you have that would even come up with some.
Speaker 4 (21:20):
Well, I think it's someone that you you yeah, and
I'm right with you there, I'm you know I I
I don't how where did that? Where was that birth?
Speaker 3 (21:32):
Like?
Speaker 4 (21:32):
Where in your brain did that did that come from?
And why did you think that was a good idea?
Speaker 2 (21:37):
I think regardless, I would want to be the first
person in line.
Speaker 6 (21:40):
Oh no, you've got to be the first person that
you have to be the head of the human SETI
p because if you're not, you're eating shit all day.
So yeah, yeah, But anyway, So it starts writes horror
news and you can find it on all your social
all the different download sites. Well also have a YouTube channel,
which I'm super surprised. I have like three thousand subscribers
(22:01):
or something like on the channel, which is really good
because subscribers are hard.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
For me to get, you know, they're hard for anyone.
YouTube's are very say.
Speaker 4 (22:09):
You chose, You chose once you choose niche. Horror is
a really specific niche. There was a guy that did
a breakdown on House of a Thousand Corpses blew up
immediately but didn't continue. Horror is not something because it's
one of the cheaper forms of entertainment to make, it
requires some of the most creativity, and it appeals to
(22:31):
young viewers. So it's perfect for that cross section to
get you over to social media. But there aren't a
lot of people in that space, and there aren't a
lot of people that truly understand horror.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
In that space.
Speaker 4 (22:41):
There are a lot of fans, but not a lot
of people that truly understand it. So I can see
where you'd be getting the subscribers and why if you're doing.
Speaker 6 (22:49):
I can like love it. It's so much fun. It's
my favorite genre, and I've been fortunate in it that
I have like a lot of friends in it, and
I just think it's I just think it's a lot
of fun. You know, you got to have fun in
whatever you're doing. And I think, uh, just with the
magazine too, you know, so terrifier. You know, basically it's
did you know it's the best independent film, probably like, yeah,
(23:11):
we're just about and next to that one with the
shaky camera. I forgot which which, but I think that,
you know, Bloody Disgusting dot Com is one of the
biggest horror sites in the world, and they basically, you know,
we're a big factor behind the Terrifier films. The fact
that they're also one of the producers on the Terrifier films,
(23:32):
and they helped promote it from back in the inception
when it was a short, you know, many years ago.
And so I just thought, you know, I'm making a
lot of horror films, and if I had my own
horror site and I could get it to blow up
and be big like Bloody Disgusting and like some of
those other sites, you know, I would have a built
in way to help promote my own projects. So that's
why we started it. And anybody who's interested in being
(23:54):
a writer. The magazine doesn't make any money, but if
you want to write about horror movies and horror events
and horror things, please let me know. Because I'm getting writers.
I only have four writers so far, and one of
the next goals would be once we get it going
really good and we're working on promoting all these different
films to do kind of like they do Horrorhound Weekend.
(24:16):
We want to do Dark Fright's Weekend and set up
like a film festival in autograph signings and vendors and stuff,
you know, and develop our own weekend.
Speaker 4 (24:25):
That's you should work with Chris Spelman. He's out here
in the desert. He does Palm Springs Comic Con. He
loves that.
Speaker 6 (24:33):
I would love to do that, So yeah, that would
be a fun thing to do. And I just like
the genre so much. I have another film that I'm
like working on and we're still putting it together. But
I already had an action figure made and I have
a professional one being done in package. But I want
to show you, guys, nobody has seen this. Nobody has
actually seen this. This is bunny Man, and it's going
(24:56):
to be a twist on an urban legend. And this
is the actual bunny Man one that I had made.
But then I have a three and a half inch
one coming in a package and a twelve inch one
made by a guy in England. Actually, but anyway, any
cool look in look how fun?
Speaker 2 (25:13):
Oh that's great, man. It's like the worst version of
Johnny darkar moments.
Speaker 6 (25:18):
Yes, oh yeah, and it's way worse. Believe me, it's
gonna be way worse. It's gonna be a really cool
film and we're putting it together and hopefully we'll shoot
it like in the summer or in the fall.
Speaker 5 (25:30):
With starting this this website, what you're do with the
article is to kind of promote other people who are
trying to make their own either indie horror films or
studio horror films.
Speaker 6 (25:40):
It's everything. It's basically just like bloody disgusting or fank
wory or anything like that. We feature, you know, lots
of different stories on all anything movies coming out. We
do movie reviews, we show trailers, urban legend stories. So
it's pretty much like got every category on it.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
Do you like anybody Slashes amongst movies more?
Speaker 6 (26:04):
Oh? I probably like the Slashers more than the most.
I like them both actually, but you know, my I
really I'm want of those like weirdo people, so like
I really like the Saw movie series. I mean the
fact that I've met a bunch of people, I'm friends
with a bunch of people, and it probably helps. Otherwise,
I really like the old school you know, hell raised
hell Raiser, Friday The Thirteenth, Halloween. Yeah, you know, so
(26:27):
I like I like those, but but uh so, I
kind of like everything though. Basically, I just like anything
if it's got a good story. I know a lot
of the movies nowadays don't really have good stories, like
like Terrifyer, you know, God bless It. It's like, you know,
the film that Never stopped. But that's not really my
kind of movie because there's really no story. It's just blood.
(26:48):
So I'm not as interested in just the blood. But
I give props to the people who are involved with
that because you know, it's it's so successful and they really,
you know, marketed it extremely well. But but I wouldn't
like if I a choice to go see, you know,
a Terrifier movie or something else, so I probably I'll
go see something else, Like i'd remember, go see wolf Man.
I want to go see the Wolfman movie that came
out today.
Speaker 5 (27:09):
What did you think about when the trademarks for like
Winning the Pooh and Mickey Mouse kind of ran out
and people immediately started turning them into horror films.
Speaker 6 (27:19):
I was going to do that, except for that I
didn't jump on it fast enough, so I think that's fine.
I think that's okay. I mean, I think it's kind
of cool. It's kind of like the same thing people
do with well. I don't know if people know that
or not, but like public domain music and public public
domain movies and stuff. You know, I have friends who
who make a great living putting out, you know, records
(27:39):
that are over fifty years old, and I think it's
seventy five years in the UK.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
You know.
Speaker 6 (27:42):
And you can like release Elvis records, and you can
release all kinds of stuff, you know, and you can
do the same thing with movies if they're in public domain.
Plus you can also take the stories that are in
public domain and update them and make your own movies.
So I think it happens a lot. A lot of
the movies that you see are not original stories. They've
been out before.
Speaker 4 (27:59):
I music, oh yeah, my fit though, like the Grims
Tales though, every and I encourage every filmmaker out that,
look at every Disney film, every Disney cartoon they've ever
made was based off of you, kind of a Grims
tail or something like that. Go turn it into a
horror a horror contoon. It will do fabulously, I know.
Speaker 6 (28:20):
I agree. I Actually I have a bunch of different
little projects that I'm trying to get going doing certain
things like that. I can't tell you exactly what because
I don't want anybody to steal the idea. Yeah, but yes,
I think it's I think it's just fun. I think
horror is a lot of fun. It's always been my
favorite genre. And and I hope you know you know
(28:44):
I have one two. I think I have five horror
movies you know, that are slated, and I think at
least two of them i'll get film film this year.
Possibly three of them will get film this year.
Speaker 4 (28:56):
I've always had a sopo for horror. I started and
my scream belongs to are Not Scary Farm when you
go there, mine's the scream you hear, that rolling scream.
Speaker 2 (29:03):
When you go in.
Speaker 4 (29:04):
It was owned by Lloyd Kaufman. He resolved it. But
we're doing Actually, Jimmy is working with us on Poultrygeist,
the musical. It's a rock opera Night of the Living Chicken,
which is fabulous.
Speaker 6 (29:16):
Now I have another plug. Let me give another plug.
If you guys want to see a gree really good.
It's an independent, low budget you know film. But I
have a film that came out in December. It's called
The Beast Inside and it's a self exorcism movie. Stars Spreame, Queen,
Sadie Cats, Loreen Landing from Airplane Too, and Vernon Wells
who was Mad Max and Predator. He was in the
(29:37):
Predator movie back in the day. And so it's called
The Beast in Side. It's on all the like streaming
like platforms.
Speaker 4 (29:44):
Watch it. Would you like to see you watch it?
Speaker 6 (29:47):
But it's a fun for a low budget film, it's
it's a pretty good one. And I have another one
called Purgatorium on TUV, which is one thriller.
Speaker 4 (29:54):
I think low budget horrors are some of the best.
I mean, there's a reason Lloyd made a living. He
was a believe it though in uh, it didn't matter
who made it. Everyone should be you know, film should
be open to everyone. And he had that belief in
the days before YouTube, before everyone could get there, so
he would distribute everything. And boy did he distribute. Yeah,
(30:14):
but I love I think that's the one thing with
horror is it takes some of it's less expensive. You
have to be super creative. But my god, the blood
is sticky.
Speaker 6 (30:25):
Yes, and again basically everything. I mean, I mean if
you think about it now too, I mean, you go on,
go on, go on to be go on some of
these like sites that you can like watch movies. I
mean there's hundreds of movies you never heard of any
of the people. You've never seen any of the people
that are any you know. So it's giving independent you know,
filmmakers an opportunity. You know, I know people who who
(30:47):
make you know, five, ten, fifteen thousand dollars films and
they're good enough to get distributed.
Speaker 4 (30:53):
You know.
Speaker 6 (30:53):
It's not really something I personally want to do, but
I think it's I think everybody's got an opportunity. And
there's really no reason why you say you can't do
anything now. I mean there's even people doing my iPhones.
Speaker 5 (31:04):
Oh yeah, So there's incredible applications and software you can
use just on your iPhone alone for editing and filmmaking.
And if it's a project you want to do it's
a passion of yours, and you have a phone, and
you have friends, not even friends who like what you're doing,
just friends who will do it with you, you can
probably put together something really at least enough to put
(31:24):
into like a Film Festival.
Speaker 4 (31:25):
They they proved with Henry Camvill's mustache. Hit me out
on this. What you can do on a phone is
sometimes better than what you can do in editing. This
but I want three million dollars to fix his mustache.
And some guy grabs his phone, grabs his editing software
and does a much better job, And was like, why
why do you spend all this money?
Speaker 2 (31:44):
Sometimes that comes down to the individual ability.
Speaker 4 (31:46):
It's talent, it's really talent.
Speaker 6 (31:49):
And there are a lot of talented people who I
think if they had an opportunity to make a real film,
they would probably blow away a lot of the other
filmmakers that throw up. But unfortunately, you know, money is
hard to come by, and so not everybody gets the
chance to do that, to make a really good film.
But I work with a with a guy. His name's
(32:09):
Hilton Ariel Ruiz. He was actually on the Jimmy Stars
Show the other day. He made a movie called Zombie
with a Shotgun.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
For a no exact what he's talking about.
Speaker 6 (32:18):
For a no budget movie, you know, he zero has
zero budget. He made a phenomenal movie and he's got
a comic book for it in a web series, and
and you know, the film has like two hundred and
something thousand followers you know in social media, and you know,
he did a really phenomenal job. So uh. And I
have another friend who made a movie called Blind and
(32:39):
I can't tell you how much the budget was, but
you know, people spend you know, more money on coffee
in a year probably than this movie cost. And it
won like every film festival it was in, and it
was phenomenal. You know, when it's normally done.
Speaker 4 (32:52):
I will say, with Zombie with a Shotgun guy, it
should be turned into a TV series much like that
zombie show that everyone was into forever. And when he
wants to do that, have him call me absolutely yeah,
because a TV series out of that brilliant, Like you
can go into a million spin offs, but a TV
series will make a lot more money and will last
longer in the zeitgeist.
Speaker 2 (33:12):
They also made a movie called Hobo with the Shotgun, But.
Speaker 6 (33:15):
That was I knew that that was the year ago.
That was I know who did that? Now I forgot
who was that the Saska sisters or I forgot who
that was I was.
Speaker 5 (33:26):
I was too young when I first heard about it
and saw it, so I have no idea. Who put
that together?
Speaker 6 (33:30):
Oh my gosh, too young, Like I am so old.
It's not even it's funny hobo with a shotgun? Oh no,
Jason Eisner did it, Okay, But I saw that movie.
I think I must know somebody who's in it, because
I definitely know all about it. And yeah, yeah, I
had Rutger Howard. Who Rutger Howard. He's like a you know,
an icon.
Speaker 2 (33:51):
But it's funny.
Speaker 4 (33:52):
I always tell people when they're starting out in the
film industry, if you want to direct, direct to horror,
if you want to be an actress, volunteer your time.
That camera soft, can you fix it? Volunteer your time.
Go work for free on a horror series. I started.
I started in horror. I had been modeling, I did
all of that. I'd done a ton of films. I
made the most money in horror out of anywhere else,
(34:15):
and I got my job working for the president of
Paramount through Lloyd and Ron Jeremy. I was not doing
important he just did horror films. So I think you
make I think horror takes a level of creativity that
most things don't happen. Like James Gunn started in horror
most people you will find who were any good in
(34:36):
this industry started in horror.
Speaker 6 (34:39):
So a lot of the actors and actresses too. Renee
Zellweger was in horror, like a whole bunch of people
were in horror. They don't ask it.
Speaker 4 (34:46):
Yes, George Clooney, Attack of the Tomatoes too, Attack of
Killer Tomatoes too, not even the first one, which I love,
Attack of the Killer Tomatoes Too. They were putting straw
they did. They're putting strawberry jam on pizza. If you
get a chance to see George Clooney an Attack of
the Killer Tomatoes to please, for the love of God,
do it.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
They're putting one on pizza, stropper jam, zach religious. They
deserve it.
Speaker 4 (35:08):
No, No, that's that's because tomato is dangerous because of
the first Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. It had, by
the way, that had one of the greatest scores in
any craptastic horror film. I've ever seen.
Speaker 6 (35:20):
Killer Clowns from Matter Space? Do you like that one? Oh?
Hell yes, I love Killer Clowns from Matter Space absolutely.
Speaker 5 (35:27):
Advertised so many times on Amazon Prime. But I've never
actually sat down.
Speaker 4 (35:31):
But it is it is like, is it.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
Like Mars attacks like there there there are.
Speaker 6 (35:38):
It's kind of spoofy. A little bit stars in it.
Grant Kramer was on our show and his mom was
a famous I forgot who his mom is, but his
mom was a famous actress who was married to uh,
Hugh Hefner. But he's it's a really good movie. That's
why you see when you go to Spirit Halloween they
have like killer clowns, like life sized killer clown things.
(35:59):
You know, it's kind of and spoofy, but it's like
a fun, spoofy horror movie, right.
Speaker 4 (36:04):
It gets that perfect cross section between horror and fun.
And there's very few films that can hit that. And
it's what you were saying earlier, there are very few
that can hit kind of the storyline and the horror.
Now everyone's just gone straight into Gore, and Gore is great.
But if you have no storyline, nobody cares who dies?
Speaker 6 (36:24):
And you think, I think that one hundred percent, Like,
if you're not invested in the people who are dying,
then who cares? So that's my problem with the Terrifier movies,
even though I do wish I was the one who
would have come up with it. But Bunny Bunny Man
is going to kick fucking art the clown's ass.
Speaker 2 (36:41):
I like that.
Speaker 4 (36:43):
The but but that's it. But you you have characters
that people are going to care about. It's we live
in a day and age where even when real people
are shot. You look at some of these awful, awful
moments in the United States where we had, you know,
the Pulse nightclub shooting. For people not to ignore it,
the news had to come in and tell these people's
stories individually for people to actually care and involve themselves.
(37:07):
So when you see when I see filmmakers, I'm like,
if the news has to do that real life events
to get people involved, you have to share stories and
share the humanity. How is film missing? How are you
just going, Okay, we blew someone up, we did great effects.
Everyone will care, right. It's like when DC and Marvel,
when let's make these films as dark as possible.
Speaker 6 (37:30):
But I don't like that they did?
Speaker 4 (37:31):
Then no, I hate it.
Speaker 6 (37:33):
I guess like Batman versus Superman, that was like the
worst one for me out of all of them, because
like Batman and Superman aren't supposed to fight each other.
Speaker 4 (37:41):
The whole point, Superman is the literal good guy of
all good guys. It's the story of Moses, Like it's
the whole point of it was He's just the good guy,
He's the light, and now you're like turning him into
you know this.
Speaker 6 (37:58):
I like that.
Speaker 2 (37:59):
I got give points do really well though.
Speaker 4 (38:02):
They did, But the whole point of it was, there's
always these alternatives like Superman lends in Russia. How does
the world turned out? Superman gets a Kryptonite spike to
the back of his head, it interrupts his brain, is
controlled by dark side, blah blah blah. Fine, I can
get all of that. Cool, but this whole premise was
like Superman is the good guy to end all good guys.
(38:22):
That is the whole point of this damn character. Why
are you're having in fights by Batman over something stupid?
Like Lex Luthor is like, I'm going to put together
this thing that could easily be disproven if two grown
men with you know, moderate intelligence had a conversation. Isn't
Bruce Wayne supposed to be a genius detective? Wasn't that
the whole Batman comic?
Speaker 6 (38:41):
Yes? And I think that, Yeah, I get I guess
because I'm old, you know, like I prefer Christopher Reeves
Superman over any of them excellent. You know. I'm old,
like I loved like I have an actual George Reeves's
action figure as Superman, you know, from the fifties, and
so I kind of just like it made when it
was a little bit more wholesome. Even though I do, like,
(39:02):
you know, I watch all of them and everything, and
I like them, but I prefer you know, I actually
I'm not a big fan of like Deadpool the character itself,
but the Deadpool movies, I mean they're fun. I mean
like they made it fun, you know, it makes it
a lot of fun. I think I think he's in trouble.
Speaker 2 (39:21):
I think he's in trouble. No, no, no, he's been
named in the lawsuit.
Speaker 6 (39:25):
He's like screwed with that Telly guy went out whatever
the guy's name is. Yeah, he's screwed.
Speaker 2 (39:31):
He's Lively.
Speaker 6 (39:32):
They made a mistake. They didn't make sure that they
had good chemistry between that guy and Blake Lively ahead
of time, you know. And I think they made a
lot of mistakes in the casting of that film in
the first.
Speaker 4 (39:42):
Place, the cost I agree with the costing. She tried
to take over the film. Then she publicly lied about it.
Then she tried to sell it like a rom calm.
There was pushback. It was a hugely popular TikTok book.
Then she publicly lied to fans Blake Lively has a
habit of doing all this stuff and tried to cover
it up by saying he essayed her. Except the whole
(40:03):
thing's on camera, and it proves that she was the aggressor.
She was like, the problem is everything's on camera, So
there's like, you know, one hundred and eighty page lawsuits
now come out and they have the receipts, they have
the footage, they have the text messages. You can't lie
like that in today's day and age. If she would
have just taken a heat with everyone saying, you weren't
taking this role seriously enough. You should have read the book.
(40:25):
You should have realized what it was about. Stop, and
she'd have gone, you know what, You're right, I've decided
to go read the book. I'm like, I'd kill her
spin doctor like and you know this, Jimmy. If she
would have just turned around and been like, I should
have read the book.
Speaker 7 (40:38):
I'm really sorry, absolutely, and she's I mean I like
her actually, like as an actress and everything and I
think that, you know, I think her best movie is
that one where she's like going to get eaten by
the shark, or she's stuck out on the reef and
she's going to eat by the shark.
Speaker 6 (40:54):
It's a great movie. It's basically the whole movie is
just her. It's just her in the Shark. But it
was a really good movie. She is a really good
actress and actually used to be really pretty good friends
with her brother, her stepbrother Jason Lively from the National
Lampoons Vacation, you know movies, or I think he was
in European Vacation or one of those. I think she's
a great actress. But I think they're all in trouble now.
(41:15):
And I think there's like a four hundred million dollar lawsuit,
and I think it's really unfortunate because really things shouldn't
get to be this way.
Speaker 2 (41:23):
It wouldn't have happened. It's funny.
Speaker 4 (41:25):
He wanted so, the guy that was directed the movie
wanted the movie to do well enough that he hid everything.
He covered up her bad behavior, He covered up Ryan
Reynolds's bad behavior. Like he was just like, Nope, I
want the movie to come out and do well. I'm like,
when people are lying for you and covering up the
fact that you were a jerk, don't keep poking.
Speaker 2 (41:44):
Okay, what did Ryan Renald do this so bad?
Speaker 4 (41:45):
I thought he was just illegally He rewrote the film,
pressured the guy into doing it, tried to buy the
film out from under him, went to Sony and basically
threatened to pull from his own contracts if there wasn't help,
and unfortunately he did all riding.
Speaker 2 (42:01):
That's really shitty? Is this is this the does this
film belonged to.
Speaker 4 (42:04):
The It belongs to the bel.
Speaker 6 (42:09):
And it belongs to things unfortunate. But you know what
big egos? I think he got some really big egos.
And let's face it, like whether you like Ryan Reynolds
or you don't like Ryan Reynolds, he is a freaking
like business genius. I mean he's he really is. He's
a genius. He makes a lot of money. People you know,
(42:31):
listen to him. I personally like his acting. He's done
some really great movies. I don't know that I would
like him as a person. Maybe not quite so much
because I don't know if I could handle the ego.
But then I don't like anybody with a really big egos.
You know, we all poop the same, so like, let's
be nice to everybody. Everybody could be nice, you know,
we don't all need too good at something.
Speaker 2 (42:55):
Tolet dude, we're not well.
Speaker 4 (42:58):
The big thing with this is it looks like I
read through the lawsuit. It was like one hundred and
eighty pages, one hundred and seventy nine pages. It took
a minute, But it looks like the big crux of
it is Ryan Reynolds went after this guy, who's Blake
Lively lied to him, because there are records of she
I told my husband this, I told my husband this.
I told my husband this. So she told her husband
all this nonsense, right, and then the receipts show that
(43:20):
she was lying to Ryan Reynolds as well. So it
doesn't look like Ryan Reynolds went after this guy for
no reason. As terrible as that sounds, it looks like them.
Speaker 6 (43:30):
Around Prince Charming to save his wife pretty much.
Speaker 4 (43:34):
And it's so and it sounds like Taylor Swift jumped
in to help Blake Lively, who's also named in this lawsuit,
and so everyone's jumped in for this chick, except she
was lying. And that's it, And so she's now got
these two people whose career are on the hook and
the receipt and audience is turning on them. And this
(43:56):
guy that put this movie together, he's the one that
bought the book. He'd spent five years at adapting it,
the whole thing. He even tried to cover up her
bad behavior. So the film went well, and she wouldn't stop.
And it was the moment I'm like, this one person
screwed everything up for like three different people off the
bat and I'm.
Speaker 6 (44:14):
Looking watch it. Did you see the movie?
Speaker 2 (44:19):
No one I know has heard a movie.
Speaker 4 (44:21):
It's not very good the parts. Apparently they released her cut,
and now that they're re releasing his cut, it is
identical to the book. Everyone loves his cut because it
was She demanded her cut be released through Sony. It
was terrible. It tanked because she tried to turn it
into a rom com.
Speaker 6 (44:39):
Yeah, that's just terrible.
Speaker 4 (44:41):
So it's on domestic, it's on DV.
Speaker 2 (44:43):
Like she would care so much. It has to be
a colleague.
Speaker 4 (44:48):
Because because she never read the book, she didn't understand
the fan base.
Speaker 5 (44:52):
Why would be because she thought it would make money,
And that's her and that's kind of her wheelhouse, and
it's not a slight that can be her wheelhouse. I
kind of think people just in her brain, she's like, no,
people need to see me as sexy because that's what
I think I am.
Speaker 4 (45:07):
So that's pretty much what happened.
Speaker 2 (45:09):
They need to love me. They fought over.
Speaker 4 (45:12):
One of the things they fought over is she didn't
think her clothes were high style enough, and he was like,
you're a small business owner. That's broke, and so it
turned into this big problematic thing where he tried to
stay with the bulls. Did she hid the whole thing?
And then she lied to the husband, lied to Taylor Swift,
and now got Taylor Swift and Ryan Reynolds pulled into
(45:32):
this lawsuit.
Speaker 2 (45:33):
So but I get it.
Speaker 4 (45:34):
It's one of those If she'd have pulled it off,
she'd have looked like gold. The flip side is she
couldn't handle the public pressure with her press tour because
she didn't know the book, and so when people asked
her about DV She's like, let's talk about my dress.
Speaker 6 (45:50):
Yeah, that's just terrible. I love because there's a lot
of books that are so I'm like, I'm the geekiest
I'm an old geek, but that's for me. Like Harry
Potter and and the Twilight and the Twilight movies, they're
like two of my favorite They're like my go to
is like, if I'm in a shitty mood, i'm working,
I'll play them just because I like them so much,
and I like both of them, and I think they're
both that.
Speaker 4 (46:10):
Great adoptions, great adoptions. Both are great adoptions. Here's another one.
We were talking about Superman before. Henry Cavill was the Stephanie,
the writer from Twilight's first choice for Edward. The director
didn't want him. They wanted Robert Pattinson, which I think
was an excellent casting choice. It was too excellent, excellent job.
(46:31):
No slight to Cavil. We want to use him for
one of our projects. So I love the guy. But
Robert Pattinson for show was the right was the right
choice there. But essentially those two books, like you but
you just hit the nail on the head. They were
very true to the book adaptions.
Speaker 6 (46:47):
I think that's the way things need to be. Though,
things need to be true to the book. If the
book has a big fan base, you know, and you
start changing everything. Because I've seen a lot of books.
I read the book and then I watched the movie.
So I didn't read the book of Percy Jackson, but
I saw the movie and I didn't have anything to
compare it to really, so I don't know that I
knew that it was. It wasn't a great movie anyway, but.
Speaker 2 (47:08):
The book.
Speaker 4 (47:10):
So the book, it was Harry Potter. It was this
twelve year old kid. They've got like a fifteen year
old act.
Speaker 2 (47:15):
It was bad. It should have been done like you
named it.
Speaker 4 (47:17):
Harry Potter. One of the best adaptations. And I know
everyone's against JK. Rowling. I particularly love her. I don't
agree with all her politics, but I actually agree with
a fair amount of it.
Speaker 6 (47:27):
Oh, I love it too. I think she's terrific and
I don't agree with I don't agree with everything on anybody,
but I think that. And you can't deny the fact
that she wrote one of the greatest stories ever, friendly
stories ever. And I think she's richer than the Queen
of England.
Speaker 4 (47:43):
She is, and she got everyone. She got everyone into
reading in a time where people were not reading, where
children were more interested in video games and cell phones.
She got everyone into reading. So I will never ever
knock that. And apparently at the London station now they
have a trolley going halfway through the wall where it's
his platform nine and three quarters so people can take photos.
(48:03):
Like she's made that big an impact you have. Diagon
Alley has been put at Universal Studios, it's been put
in England. It's she has created a phenomenon. I mean,
it's essentially the dream. It's what I want to do
with films. It's what Jimmy here, what Jimmy Star wants
to do with films.
Speaker 2 (48:19):
It is the dream.
Speaker 4 (48:20):
We all want that impact.
Speaker 5 (48:21):
But you know, absolutely in fifty sixty years, some asshole
when the when the intellectual property is up, is going
to remake it.
Speaker 4 (48:32):
My favorite right now though, is they turned around and
Jimmy Alla free siate this. They turn around, They're like, okay,
we're turning the Curse Child into a movie. They're like,
who's playing the lead characters? They're like the same actors
that played them as kids. They're like, no, these characters
are like forty no, who's going to play the actors?
Speaker 2 (48:46):
I'm like, you understand.
Speaker 5 (48:48):
These It's now Harry's the kid we see in the
end of Harry Potter I'm like.
Speaker 4 (48:56):
Daniel Radcliffe is playing Harry Potter. No, that's it, Daniel
rad Cliff is playing Harry Potter. And it's that moment
I'm like, how old do you think?
Speaker 6 (49:06):
I'm happy? Yeah, Like, that's just ridiculous to do things
like that. I do like it when they do cameos
of the people who used to be in it, you know,
and then they do it like another movie and they
bring the people in, you know, even like even like
when they did Lost in Space, which was a terrible movie,
but they have they had cameos though by people from
the original series, you know that I thought was kind
(49:26):
of I like that.
Speaker 4 (49:27):
But matt LeBlanc, who better than Matt LeBlanc Lost in
Space to play the captain Joey.
Speaker 6 (49:40):
Was terrible. It was terrible. Unfortunately, that movie was terrible.
But I was a big Loss in Space fan as
a kid, like I used to watch it all the time.
And the guy who played Don Adams or whatever, Major
Adams or whatever, the guy's named Don something like, I
was friends with him for a long time. He passed recently,
and uh, I think that I just think that was
(50:03):
a fun thing, you know, things from my childhood because
I liked all that stuff a lot, but Harry Potter
and Twilight are my favorite. Whatsoever. I was on a
movie meeting yesterday and one of the guys is an
Emmy winning like stunt guy or whatever, and he told me,
you know that he was friends with Taylor Lautner, and
I was like, oh my god, I want to get
Taylor Lighter in the movie. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (50:22):
Yeah, he's actually he's actually a strong actor.
Speaker 6 (50:27):
He's a strong actor. I think he kind of got
screwed a little bit.
Speaker 4 (50:30):
Oh yes, I gave him films. I were trying to
turn him into a hot throb, and he was more
of a comedic, like more more of a character actor,
like when you go back to Shockboy and all that stuff.
He's been acting since he was a kid. People need
to cut him a.
Speaker 6 (50:43):
Break, absolutely, but I would love to work with him.
What do you guys think of Robert Pattinson as Batman?
I don't know how much time we have, but did
you guys like Robert Pattinson as Batman?
Speaker 5 (50:52):
I don't think it? Okay, I didn't particularly care from
his Batman. I never liked any of the DC actual
like non animated movies, to.
Speaker 2 (51:02):
Be honest, with you. I like you very well, Christian.
Speaker 5 (51:05):
That Fleck was really good too, right, It wasn't bad.
It was just a different kind of band. We saw
a young Batman just starting out, as you know, he's
kind of going through the ropes of figuring out his
troubles and his problems. But it's really I feel like
it lacks that story. We give it damn about the people.
It's it's a lot of it's too.
Speaker 2 (51:25):
Dark for me.
Speaker 6 (51:26):
I really like the old life Michael Keaton Batman.
Speaker 5 (51:29):
That was really Adam must always be the best bad Adam.
Speaker 4 (51:34):
Oh smack. Yeah, like that was excellent. We are tell

really important. I got to tell you. We decided to
