Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:14):
So with the movie that we're watching today, it made
me think of a question I wanted to ask you
that I'm not sure we've ever talked about, because, Okay,
when I was a little kid, little little kid, I
wanted to be an astronaut. Ooh, so what did you
What's the first thing you remember wanting to be when
you grew up.

Speaker 2 (00:35):
Geez, that's a tough.

Speaker 1 (00:37):
One, there, will I like I got, I go for
the hard hitting questions to start.

Speaker 2 (00:41):
I know, my gosh, I know that I've always wanted
to be a mom, but I really wanted to be
a geologist when I was like six or seven.

Speaker 3 (00:52):
That was your opinion.

Speaker 1 (00:53):
That's one you don't normally hear little kids saying, is
I want to be a geologist?

Speaker 2 (00:57):
Oh my gosh. Well, then you've clearly never had even
one conversation with my parents, because my dad loves to
talk about that I had. I was really I was
a lot more of a tomboy when I was younger,
and so I was out on my bike and all
over you know where we lived in our neighborhood. In
my backyard, we were redoing the backyard, so there was

(01:20):
a ton of rocks and my mom would come home
and I had picked up all these rocks and I
would wash them in my bathroom scene the one I
used to get ready and would clog the drain. She
would have that. And then I also was also more
into animals and kind of just science y type stuffs.
To where there was well, I thought, that's really what

(01:44):
I thought was a pond. I would I would jump
in with my friend Lindsay and we would get the
we would pull out tadpoles, and my mom kept going
where and that she would come home and in my
bath where I bathed would be are filled with these
like nasty little creatures there, and they were tadpoles, so

(02:05):
I thought I could raise them. That was my things.

Speaker 3 (02:08):
Had to become like your army, your undead army of
the knights, No.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
Just to be I got. I thought. I thought they
would be frogs. I wanted frogs, and I would climb
up trees and I would find like bird ness, like
I was into all kinds.

Speaker 3 (02:21):
Of were like a young Steve Irwin, I gets so.

Speaker 2 (02:26):
But rocks was a big thing for me too. I'd
find rocks in this pond too and pull them out,
and I mean they were gross. What I thought was
a pawn ended up being a sewer. Oh okay, yes,
this is a sewer under this overpassed by a golf course.
It was just right off the golf course, but it
was It wasn't like necessarily a really bad sewer, but

(02:47):
it was not.

Speaker 3 (02:48):
It was one of the nicer sewers in the neighborhood.

Speaker 2 (02:50):
Well, I mean, it wasn't. It wasn't gross as I thought,
the nice one. Oh.

Speaker 1 (02:56):
I learn so much about you every time I get
to ask these questions.

Speaker 3 (03:01):
I'm so happy.

Speaker 2 (03:02):
Thanks for that ass. Well.

Speaker 1 (03:03):
Welcome the Magical Rewind, the show that makes you want
to grab your friends, your PJS, and your popcorn and
go back to a time when all the houses were smart,
the waves, Tsunamis and the high School's musical.

Speaker 3 (03:13):
I'm WILFORDLL and I'm Sabrina Brian.

Speaker 4 (03:16):
Cedas Lapitas, Sabrina Cedas lapdes Well.

Speaker 1 (03:20):
It is a brand new week here on Magical Rewind,
and we're hopping onto the space station or Space Day
to analyze the nineteen ninety nine Disney Channel original movie
Zenon Girl of the twenty first Century. Yes, we are here, folks,
We are officially at Zenon this is one of the
most requested ones we've had. This is based on the
book of the same title by Marilyn Sadler and Roger

(03:42):
Bolan that actually became a series of five books, and
much like our beloved fuzz Bucket, I put beloved in
quotes in case you don't know me. This was originally
conceived to be a television pilot, but instead became one
of the most successful franchises the channel had for many,
many years. It first aired on January twenty third, nineteen nine,
after a delay from what was supposed to be a

(04:02):
December nineteen ninety eight air date, but we cannot seem
to find the reason why the date was changed, which
is strange. And then it was released on home video
VHS in September two thousand. So this was the sixth
dcom ever released, you know they we've talked about the
different iterations that Disney Channel has gone through with their movies,
so once it became d com, this is only the
sixth one ever done. And the only other one of

(04:24):
those six we've talked about so far is Brink Early
two of the first six.

Speaker 3 (04:28):
We're getting there.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
Yeah, this was another one that was a third party
studio production, much like Radio Rebel, which we just did,
but this time the studio was De Passa Entertainment was
in charge. They were still filming in Vancouver and this
was the first of a trilogy. It's sequel, Xenon the
Zequel Yes Great title was released in two thousand and one,
and Xenon Z three followed in two thousand and four.

(04:51):
And you can watch Xenon Girl of the Twenty first
Century now on Disney Plus. So go check it out
or listen when we're done. We're not your parents. We're
not going to ground you. You get to make the decision.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
Although some of the comments on Instagram have been asking
for us to post what we're coming, because they do,
but they want to take it over the weekend. We're
definitely going to try to make make adjustments to make
sure that you know, okay, so what's next? Because they
do it sounds like they are wanting to listen or
watch before they listened totally.

Speaker 3 (05:20):
We will make sure that that is adjusted. Now.

Speaker 1 (05:22):
I have a feeling you might have been a Girl
of the twenty first Century yourself. Did you had you
seen Xenon? Were you a Xenon fan before we watched.

Speaker 2 (05:30):
I had definitely seen zeneon. This was again while I
was in the although I was a little bit older,
I was, you know, still still a part of it
for sure. And it's right around the time where you know,
I was auditioning a ton in the Disney Channel. And
I loved these movies, not just because I wanted to

(05:52):
obviously be in them. I thought the characters were so fun.
They looked like they'd be amazing to film. So I
was watching every monthly. I even no matter what they
were coming out, I was watching every single one. Again,
didn't love all of them, but this one, of course,
I mean, I cannot wait. That was so fun to rewatch.

Speaker 3 (06:12):
I know, this was definitely cool.

Speaker 1 (06:15):
I also will get We're gonna get into the synopsis,
but very briefly the way it was so funny that
we started with My Date with the President's Daughter and
then Cheetah Girls, because the very opening of this movie
seemed like a mashup of both, where it was the
girl in a bedroom kind of you knew she was
a little different, but you didn't know how she's already
speaking with her own language like the cheetah chatter, and

(06:37):
then she opens the window and you see Earth like
Hallie opened the window and you saw that she was
in the White House.

Speaker 3 (06:41):
So it had that same kind of vibe going all
the way through.

Speaker 1 (06:44):
But before we take a dive into the recycled bin
for clothes, read my flapping lips. Here is our synopsis.
Xenon is a thirteen year old girl living on a
space station orbiting the Earth in twenty forty nine. When
one of her antics goes too far, her parents decide
she must be grounded literally when they banish her to Earth,
which we'll get into that, they literally throw her off
of the space station to live with her aunt Judy.

(07:07):
She has trouble blending in, but when she uncovers an
evil plan to destroy her family space station, she must
work together with her new found friends to thwart the villains.
Early thoughts, Sabrina, what did you think of this movie?

Speaker 2 (07:18):
Okay, I have to go back to the opening because
I was just my sabritacies. I love this, I love this,
I love this. This was so fun. All of the
you know, what we've already found out with talking to
Stu is the iPad that was not out at that point.
I mean, now I know, and I'm you know, unfortunately,

(07:40):
this is not a time when I had a chance
to have Monroe sit and watch because I have to
watch it an additional time besides my two times, right, yeah,
to watch it with her because she talks.

Speaker 3 (07:48):
The whole time.

Speaker 2 (07:49):
But yeah, that you know, I kept thinking when Roe
wouldn't even think that's weird, we're different or cool. Her
normal life already is this, you know, this iPad world,
and so already that's how she wakes up in the
morning and then you know, seeing the earth, and I
just I loved it. I thought, I've reaching that it

(08:09):
kept going her her going into you know, we meet
everyone so quickly, which I love to do, and there
was just so many things that were just ahead of
its time right from the beginning, and I it was
so fun. I loved all the pops of color, I
loved the set. I loved everything right from the beginning.

Speaker 3 (08:28):
I don't disagree.

Speaker 1 (08:29):
I thought it was I I'm really glad we got
to talk to Stu first, because too, the whole thing
about it being Eloise in the hotel, you could totally
see that coming around.

Speaker 2 (08:38):
I did not know what he was talking about at
that time, but I did keep thinking about his references.

Speaker 3 (08:43):
I yeah, and it worked.

Speaker 1 (08:44):
So it was fun to kind of see where his
mindset was when he was writing it and how he
adapted the book and did all that kind of stuff.

Speaker 3 (08:49):
So I thoroughly enjoyed it. I thought it was great.

Speaker 1 (08:51):
The acting in this movie is top notch. From the
adults and from the kids. It's yes, we're going to
get into your your friend Raven. But she's just so
good at everything. She's so natural.

Speaker 2 (09:03):
She's just the cutest of cue next level, I know.
And I loved hearing that. Stu loved working with her,
and I mean, you know, not just professionalism, but she's
just so good. Kirsten Storms, she was made to be
a Disney Channel legend and you can see it in
this movie. This was before she was doing a lot

(09:23):
on the channel.

Speaker 1 (09:24):
Yeah, there are rumors that actually the director originally wanted Raven.

Speaker 3 (09:28):
To star as xenon Oh really, but.

Speaker 1 (09:30):
Then something happened and it went to Kirsten Storms, and
then they brought her in. So we're talking about Kirsten Storms,
who the movie stars as xenon Car and in her
first ever lead role, and she commanded the screen.

Speaker 3 (09:41):
She was great.

Speaker 1 (09:42):
We all recognized her as Emily from the classic Johnny Tsunami,
a favorite here on the podcast, but she also appeared
on that So Raven Seventh Heaven, Days of Our Lives
and has been on General Hospital now for twenty years.

Speaker 3 (09:55):
I mean twenty years.

Speaker 1 (09:58):
On the same show. Really impressive, Yes, just amazing. And
then we've got the legendary Raven Simone who plays Xenon's
bestie Nebula Wade.

Speaker 3 (10:07):
Another movie with the.

Speaker 5 (10:09):
Names that name I know, I'm I put it down.
We got to put it on the list incredible names.
This was her first ever d com. So you got
Kirsten Storms in her first lead role. You've got Raven
Simone in her first ever d com.

Speaker 1 (10:21):
You know her basically from birth when she started on
The Cosby Show and then she did The Cheetah Girls
that so Raven has continued to produce an act and
has become a force in Hollywood. Then you've got a
very recognizable nineties character actor Stuart Penkin, who plays Commander Plank.
The second he walks on screen, everybody recognized him. Yes,
he's the man in charge of the space station. He
was in movies like Congo, Fatal Attraction, and arachnophobia, and

(10:42):
he and I actually did an episode of Batman Beyond
together called Meltdown, which is one of the cooler episodes,
and we recorded together, and he's a very nice guy.
And Gregory Smith plays Xenon's love interest, Greg so good casting.
You might recognize him as from Brown on Everwood Dove
EPs Dean in the show Rookie Blue or the two

(11:02):
thousand Mel Gibson movie The Patriot where he gets shot
in the back and killed and it's very, very horrible,
And the movie actually filmed at his high school. They
shot this movie at his high school, so we used
a ton of his friends as extras in the movie,
which leaves me to question, have you ever gotten friends
to be in stuff that you're doing?

Speaker 2 (11:22):
Oh? Of course, of course. Keeley and I actually did
a YouTube show called Well we did two of them.
We did March Moms, and we pulled in so many
of our friends to friends that are actors, and then
of course we would do the mass text messages, Hey,
we need a bunch of different people to fill in
the background, you know. So while we were doing that,

(11:43):
and then again on Bad Sex with Good People, another
show we did and brought in some fun friends that
were they were willing to do some really fun and
kind of outrageous comedy stuff and just had the best time.
Being on set with your friends is so fun.

Speaker 1 (12:00):
When I did an episode of Are You Afraid of
the Dark, and we shot it up in Montreal, and
I just graduated from high school and my best friend,
who was a year ahead of me, came up to
Montreal with me and they made him the featured extra
in the opening scene. And he has had essentially a
full beard from the time that he was like eight,
So even though he shaved, he's sitting next me and
I look like this little kid and everyone's like, who's

(12:22):
the guy with basically the five o'clock shadow at eight
o'clock in the morning sitting behind you. Oh, that's my friend,
Matt shout out keeps I love that. So the movie
runs ninety seven minutes, which is seven minutes north of
the target. It was directed by Kenneth Johnson, who directed
the movie Short Circuit Too, Johnny five, and the Shaquille
O'Neil's superhero movie Steal.

Speaker 3 (12:42):
He was also this is the coolest thing to me.
He was heavily involved in bringing Alien Nation to TV.

Speaker 1 (12:48):
Where it became a bit of a franchise, and Alien
Nation was a Fredell family favorite show.

Speaker 2 (12:54):
Found right up the alley of the first I thought
it was great.

Speaker 1 (12:57):
And I got to go onto the set when I
was on another show back in the day and interview
all the actors.

Speaker 3 (13:01):
It was so cool. It was a great show.

Speaker 1 (13:04):
It was written by the original book authors who we
mentioned before, and new friend of the podcast, d com
Daddy stuck Rieger. Like he said when he was on
the show, this is his favorite of the fifteen Disney
movies he wrote, and he landed the job by, as
we were saying, pitching it as Eloise on a space station,
which is completely how it's written.

Speaker 3 (13:23):
Let's get in a little bit to.

Speaker 1 (13:25):
The timeframe of the movie, because this is where things
can date themselves. And again I'm going to make a
Batman beyond reference because I think it's apt here. So
this takes place in twenty forty nine, which is now
only twenty five years away from where we are now,
and it doesn't seem like we are any closer to
living on a space station full time and having school

(13:45):
and everything the way that we are than we were
in nineteen ninety nine. We're basically the same distance away.
And here's here's how I was going to make it
about Batman Beyond. So Batman Beyond took place fifty years
in the future when we started. But Bruce tim the
creator of the show, always says Batman Beyond takes place
fifty years from now. Whenever now is so it took

(14:09):
place fifty years in the future in ninety nine. It
takes place fifty years in the future from now. So
it seems to me like as we're moving forward in time,
we should be bumping up where Xenon actually is in
the future.

Speaker 3 (14:19):
Does that make sense?

Speaker 2 (14:20):
But at the same time, with a lot I mean,
you've got holograms in there, You've got iPad looking things. FaceTime, Yeah,
FaceTime was not even even still near it, you know.

Speaker 3 (14:32):
No, they predicted a lot of the future.

Speaker 2 (14:35):
Yeah, the lot of the future is now. Yeah, but
there are still that idea of the whole world or
you know, cities or counties or whatever being able to
live up there together as one.

Speaker 1 (14:46):
We're more than twenty five years away from that, I
would think, I would guess. I mean, yeah, there'll be
thirty seven different iPhones in those twenty five years thirty
seven hundred diffent now, but we won't be on a.

Speaker 3 (14:56):
Space there, and you and I will probably not be there.

Speaker 1 (14:58):
No, except what I'm guessing the premise of the movie
is that some people have stayed on Earth while others
have boarded the space station, the space stay, as she
likes to say, and adapted a new lifestyle. Again, the
things we've talked about, the stuff they got right, the FaceTime,
the holograms, the tablets. It's also very spot on that
everyone depends completely on computers in space, but down on

(15:20):
Earth there's still just the one computer lab in the school, Yes.

Speaker 2 (15:24):
Just one.

Speaker 3 (15:24):
Did you have a computer lab? Yes, we did.

Speaker 1 (15:29):
We did not, at least not one that I not
one that I know of. We weren't allowed to type
our papers. I remember back in the day we had
like a Commodore sixty four back in elementary school, and
I think it was like the Oregon Trail and stuff
like that and run go to ten and then the
thing would run and count. But actual like learning how
to do computers. No, we didn't do any of that stuff.

Speaker 2 (15:51):
Trail shout out of the Oregon Trail, frustrating you could
never get there. I don't think I ever, we just
wanted to hunt.

Speaker 3 (16:00):
That was it. You just wanted to shoot the buffaloes.
That's all you want.

Speaker 1 (16:02):
Because it was something they did, it was like, yes,
now they did something also very interesting, and this is
a credit to Stu Krieger, and it just shows how
how great the writing is. So when she is kicked
off the Space Station and has to move to Earth,
they explain that the town that Judy lives in is
a throwback town. So they mentioned that l if you
go to La, you go to New York, you go

(16:23):
to any of these places. They're very modern. But by
saying that she lives in a throwback town, they don't
have to do any of the modern cars, any of them.
They can make it cheaper.

Speaker 4 (16:33):
Right again, Skuler, instead of making it look cheesy with
one line, they can go, no, she lives in kind
of like an old school throwback town. And then a
couple set deck things here or there, and they sell
it without having to have flying cars and floating Starbucks
and all this kind of stuff like that.

Speaker 2 (16:50):
Did you think at all at some point if they did,
the car would look like the new Tesla suv.

Speaker 1 (17:00):
The truck thing that looks like it was drawn by
a twelve year old. Somebody on my street just got
one and it looks like.

Speaker 3 (17:04):
You just threw something.

Speaker 2 (17:07):
So that's what I think you would have to try
to build something like that because this world.

Speaker 1 (17:14):
Yeah, if you go back to the future too, they
just put all these like appliances on regular cars and
then pretend they're floating down the street.

Speaker 3 (17:20):
Yeah. But yes, I thought that was great. I thought
that it was a great way to do it.

Speaker 1 (17:26):
Now, somebody comes to you tomorrow and says Sabrina big Fan,
first time caller, longtime listener, I would love for you
to come and live on a space station for a year,
and let's make it a modern space station like this one.

Speaker 3 (17:41):
Would you go, would you space station it up? Or
would you be like, you know what? Not so much
for me. I'll stay in my throwback down for.

Speaker 2 (17:46):
A year, make it.

Speaker 3 (17:48):
Think I could make it five years.

Speaker 2 (17:51):
My family, like my husband and kids can't come.

Speaker 3 (17:53):
Right, Yeah, everybody gets to come, Yes, everybody gets to come.

Speaker 2 (17:55):
Yeah. I think I could probably swing it, okay, because
I think about that a lot with you know, friends
that have to relocate for their their spouse's job to space,
not space, but to somewhere where they don't live. I
feel like I can meet new friends, you can get
adapt I'm cool to live. I let you know. People think, oh,

(18:16):
I could never do a cruise ship. I could. That's
one of the things I want to do. I want
a cruise around the world for an entire year. I
want to be a.

Speaker 3 (18:24):
Awful No, it doesn't, it's amazing. You want to be
for a year?

Speaker 2 (18:29):
Yes, I would totally do it.

Speaker 1 (18:31):
I would rather be in a space station as it
was slowly decompressing and my eyes were bleeding, than.

Speaker 4 (18:37):
Be on the right cre I've never been a cruise
at all. I couldn't just imagine being on a boat
for a year.

Speaker 2 (18:43):
You get off anyway, all right, you can get if
you're in space, you're stuck. You're probably not going to
come back back home. The ship you can get off
of the water and onto land and back on within
the day. It's not a big that's yeah. I totally
think I could, and I would totally sign up for that.
I don't think do you know anyone that is looking
for space people, I'll do it. Hey, why not?

Speaker 1 (19:12):
The special effects in this movie for nineteen ninety nine
were pretty great.

Speaker 2 (19:17):
I thought so too, only there was just one shot
of a close up of her and then her seeming
almost like too close to the earth.

Speaker 3 (19:28):
When she was oh, when she's floating for the nebulatory.

Speaker 2 (19:31):
Only that was like I was going, oh uh oh
uh oh. And there's only really one shot that was like, Okay,
we dropped. It didn't look great, but the rest of
it actually looked pretty good. When she was floating out there.

Speaker 1 (19:41):
Yeah, the plane flying down plane, Yeah, the shottle and everything,
it all looked pretty good.

Speaker 3 (19:47):
And I got to say, better than kind of pixel perfect,
and considering it was nineteen ninety.

Speaker 2 (19:51):
Nine, yeah, saying some of these effects I thought kind.

Speaker 3 (19:55):
Of worked more than even like the Descendants and stuff
like that, because they seemed on you know, on time
and on brand, and it was practical sets mixed in
with kind of some of the colors of the nebulation.
I thought it all kind of worked.

Speaker 2 (20:07):
I did, too, I really did. I mean, I'd have
to watch Descendants back to back with this.

Speaker 1 (20:13):
Yeah, well we're gonna we well, maybe we'll watch the
zequel with the Descendants sequel to back to Okay, that
sounds cool, and then Chetah Girls too.

Speaker 3 (20:20):
We'll just do a two month.

Speaker 2 (20:22):
They're putting this much production and they continued in it.
Like like I said with Mine, and what I've heard
with Descendants is they keep getting better. I'm so excited
to see what's gonna happen with this movie because this
started off strong.

Speaker 3 (20:36):
Yeah, well that's what you know. I'm calling it right now.
We'll have to do sequel month, okay, and we'll just
do a bunch of sequels back to back. So I
love that.

Speaker 1 (20:42):
When we open up, we meet Xenon in a very
cool kind of opening segment. She's a normal teenager late
for school Russiana class, but you get to see through
where she's running around, who's bumping into that. She's clearly
not a normal teenager. She's one floating in space in
a massive station that looks like a cheese grade. We
also learned that the president is Chelsea Clinton, who they
wanted to throw in there.

Speaker 2 (21:03):
Now I wasn't really talked about any ever again that very.

Speaker 1 (21:07):
Beginning, Chelsea Clinton was president of the United States. Now,
while racing to school like she's the Star Trek version
of Feris Bueller. She has all the same problems as
are other main teens in a dcom. She's got issues
with the Commander Plank, who's the principal. Essentially, she has
to figure out how she's going to win a contest
to join the band Microbe, which is her favorite kind
of n Sync type band, on stage for their first

(21:29):
ever intergalactic concert. But even when she's a normal team,
it's done in very kind of surreal surroundings, which I like.

Speaker 3 (21:38):
The space station look great, the sets look great. Yes,
it all worked, It really did all work.

Speaker 1 (21:45):
And the so the costume designer was actually Linda Matheson
who also worked on Clueless and romy Michell's high school
Reunion and Enchanted, So you can see they swung for
the fences and it played out.

Speaker 3 (21:57):
Where. So where did Z?

Speaker 1 (21:59):
Where does Xenon rank for you among looks of a film,
you know, the special effects, the costumes, all that kind
of stuff.

Speaker 3 (22:06):
Did it? Was it major or minor?

Speaker 1 (22:08):
For you?

Speaker 2 (22:09):
It crushed major?

Speaker 3 (22:11):
Did it? Really?

Speaker 4 (22:12):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (22:13):
I thought again the sets The only thing I felt
about the sets, and you know, it didn't necessarily have
to be much bigger, but it did seem I could
recognize where they were a lot. You know, they didn't
have like two when they're on the space station. They
didn't have too much to seem to work with when
it comes to the hallways of it. Yeah, but knowing

(22:35):
that it was two separate things wasn't like too bad.
But I loved the costuming of this. I thought everyone
looked so cute. Everyone had their cute little accents of stuff.
I loved. Well, I don't want to say that.

Speaker 3 (22:48):
One yet because.

Speaker 2 (22:50):
Yeah, because it was one of the things that I
thought was like when it came out, what the heck?

Speaker 3 (22:55):
And oh they explained it and then it made me crack.

Speaker 2 (22:58):
But I really liked did and I was I loved
to see where this costume designer came from because those
are all all three of those are favorite movies of mine, and.

Speaker 3 (23:10):
They're all super important. With the costume. The wardrobe is
very important.

Speaker 2 (23:13):
Yes, and legendary, like people love think about Clueless, Love
the outfit Romeo Michelle, When do you think about it?
Romeo Michelle Clueles two of the top Halloween costumes of
the year. If you're going to go with a girlfriend.

Speaker 3 (23:26):
Yeah, no, I think it's true, you know, absolutely.

Speaker 2 (23:28):
It's totally If you're going to do a duo costume,
those are two of the first movies you go after.
And I think on this one. We got to add
Zee onto the list, you and Monroe. I might do
it with Monroe because she yes, yeah, sure, I mean
we could totally make this happen.

Speaker 3 (23:45):
That would be great.

Speaker 2 (23:45):
That might just have to happen this next year.

Speaker 1 (23:47):
Well, speaking of crushing it, Major, let's talk a little
bit about the slang, which Stu did an amazing job
of incorporating his own language made up in the script.
So it was Major, Minor O ring stream inky which
means sketchy, or of course the famous Cetas Lapidis, which
he completely built out of the universe. Yes, and the

(24:10):
you know again, it worked the same way the cheetah
chatter worked. None of that would work if the acting
wasn't strong, right, But they made it sound like it
was modern day slang. This is how we talk. It
didn't sound forced, it didn't sound and it was just
this is how we talk. I was walking around going
to ask Cetus Lapidis after.

Speaker 2 (24:28):
Our last movie when we talked about a word being
repeated over and over and over again. That happened to
me with Major. I started going, we've got to be
on sixty eight now, Major, Oh.

Speaker 1 (24:41):
Yeah, I think we were talking about a fuzzbucket, fuzzbuget.

Speaker 6 (24:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (24:44):
We just kept saying fuzzbucket.

Speaker 2 (24:46):
I kept going, oh gosh, that could be well.

Speaker 3 (24:48):
Fuzzbucket was major inky though.

Speaker 2 (24:50):
This one major inky. Yeah, but this one, this was
so she was just so cute. She did such a
great job.

Speaker 3 (24:56):
She was amazing. We quickly learned that the space station
is also getting old.

Speaker 1 (25:00):
They need upgrades and more funding to continue some of
their work, which it appears can save millions of lives
with things like bone marrow density experiments, which is what
Xenon's parents are actually doing with the floating hologram rats.
And now the billionaire in charge that are funding, Peter Winman,
is coming to check in and they need to impress them,
and most importantly, Xenon, who, of course this is the

(25:21):
eloise portion, is a little troublemaker who is always getting
into shall we say, mischief, needs to be on her
best behavior, which should be very easy except she thinks
Wyndham and his assistant are up to something nefarious. It's
also important to know that these kids on the space station,
their ability to have fun is obviously wildly dampened by
being in space.

Speaker 3 (25:43):
There's not much to do. I've never been to space,
but I know that there's not a ton to do there.

Speaker 1 (25:48):
Yes, lots of open space, very little air, so probably
not the coolest place to hang out if you're a kid,
at least not for an extended period of time.

Speaker 3 (25:57):
Yeah. So the idea that the band's coming up Protozoa,
who is her you know, her crush, her major crush
is coming up and Microbe is going to play. They're
all very, very excited.

Speaker 2 (26:08):
I do love that they love their culture of where
they're at. Though yes, the idea of going to Earth
is the worst thing in the world for them, even
though they are stuck on this space station, they they
love it.

Speaker 3 (26:22):
It's home.

Speaker 2 (26:23):
They don't have a lot to do, but this is
their home and they're proud of it and they love it.
I that part I thought was really great. I you
know that they weren't kids dying to get out of
where they grew up.

Speaker 3 (26:33):
That I loved. And that's the other thing I liked.

Speaker 1 (26:35):
Exactly what you're saying, is what you said about moving
where you're like, I'll make new friends. Kids are uberly adaptable,
so they adapt to things, like, you know, to pass
the time, they sneak out and they go into air ducks,
they go to recycle bins, they dive for clothes, they
go in a restriction sections. She gets to put herself
in a spacesuit and go out to watch a nebula
Like they're breaking the rules, but they're kids on a

(26:57):
space station, so yeah, it was well written where they're
little ways to enjoy themselves on.

Speaker 3 (27:02):
A space station.

Speaker 2 (27:03):
Yes, a little trouble. They're not trying to end the world,
but they're causing a little trouble.

Speaker 3 (27:08):
They are fun for little mischief.

Speaker 1 (27:10):
Unfortunately, the problem is once she was on that tether
outside she sneaks out into space class five solar flare.
She gets caught, which is another strike against her, and
then the creepy assistant who's super super creepy, she catches
this guy trying to break into a class four restricted
section in the middle of the night and instantly gets

(27:32):
the ick from this guy and knows something's up. So
she and her friends, well it's really her, hatch a
plan to keep their eyes on this guy to make
sure that they're not going to do anything. They've really
set it up that if you mess with anything in
this restricted section, it can kill everybody on the space
stage literally kill everybody else SPA. Yes, so she tries

(27:55):
breaking in one night. That's where exactly needs to go,
exactly like.

Speaker 3 (28:00):
A normal kid. I shouldn't be there, So that's where
I'm going to go.

Speaker 1 (28:03):
This, by the way, is after the Windham guy has
pledged and I can again. This is only showing the
time of nineteen ninety nine five hundred million dollars, yes,
which in future money and space money might as well
be thirty five dollars. I think that the Space Shuttle
when they built it was like thirty five, like like

(28:23):
billions and billions of dollars, so they that was just
they should have made it like I'm pledging an extra
five hundred billion dollars.

Speaker 3 (28:30):
For space remains.

Speaker 2 (28:31):
Made me think of Austin Powers for what a million
dollars million?

Speaker 4 (28:36):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (28:37):
Right, yeah. But she gets caught like it did.

Speaker 1 (28:41):
She gets caught sneaking into the computer system and is
then grounded by her parents. The problem, of course, is
when you're on a space station, what being grounded means
is you are kicked off the space station. Her parents
sent her away.

Speaker 7 (28:58):
Incredibly harsh, infredibly harsh, I mean, and it was for
an unknown amount of time. It was to bring me
back as fast figure out when I can't imagine that
is quote unquote cheap to dude back. How many times

(29:18):
the space shuttle thing that goes back and forth between
Earth even happens.

Speaker 2 (29:22):
But this was under no given amount of time they
think give for away. Yes, my heart was crushed for
me too.

Speaker 1 (29:33):
I was really, well, they made another Disney trope we've
seen a lot of now because we've seen this a
couple of times. Is good cool sympathetic dad, kind of
focus driven mom who maybe doesn't care about the kid
as much as the dad does, or hasn't befriended the
kid as much as the dad has.

Speaker 3 (29:51):
But they they send her away. It was so I
was like they're giving away their child.

Speaker 1 (29:57):
By the way, that actor who play the assistant Lutz
his anenactne Bob Bancroft and man can.

Speaker 3 (30:06):
For everybody.

Speaker 1 (30:07):
He was Frank Man in Parks and rec episodes or
from Chicago Hope. But he plays such a good creepy guy.

Speaker 2 (30:15):
I thought both of the villains were great. I didn't
understand the eye twitch that she checks into like he
had like an which he lies. I thought that was
going to go somewhere and kind of be more explained,
and it never was. This guy was amazing start to finish.

Speaker 1 (30:35):
He was so.

Speaker 3 (30:38):
Yeah, he was great. Oh he was awesome. He did
a great job. Now did you find it?

Speaker 1 (30:42):
It was strange that it took over a half an hour,
took like thirty five minutes of her in space before
then she's grounded and sent to Earth, and it's like
then they start a whole new movie with a whole
new group of friends.

Speaker 2 (30:56):
Yep, yep.

Speaker 3 (30:58):
And I think this goes to this being supposed to
be a TV show. Yes, I'm assuming.

Speaker 2 (31:03):
I mean this was. It was definitely going to be
this if it was a TV show. You saw how
it would make sense. Yeah, every episode to kind of
have stuff going on back and forth, and they had
to have a full blown cast with her on Earth. Yeah,
that's where it was going to take her for a while. Yeah,
that's where it's just kind of okay. Now, wait, it

(31:23):
wasn't just one love interest in one friend. It was
like a whole group of people we had to get
to know, and all of their storylines got built a
little bit here and there, the jealous girlfriend, you know,
all of that stuff, and it was it was a lot.
It started to be a lot.

Speaker 3 (31:38):
I agree, you know what, so, yeah, I agree, it.

Speaker 1 (31:41):
May It makes way more sense knowing that it was
supposed to be a television show where it made.

Speaker 2 (31:46):
That first part of her being on Earth kind of slow. Yeah,
kind of where are we going? Come on, let's pick
up what's happening, because.

Speaker 1 (31:52):
The pilot episode is clearly until she gets kicked off
the space station. Yeah, until she gets kicked Yeah, she
gets kicked off, She lands on Earth, she comes out,
falls down the stairs, roll credits, and we'll pick it
up the next time.

Speaker 4 (32:05):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (32:05):
But because it was a movie, they have to introduce
this whole new life. Now we're introducing her.

Speaker 2 (32:12):
Essentially on episode two and episode three or whatever.

Speaker 3 (32:15):
You know, absolutely, so we're back on Earth now.

Speaker 1 (32:25):
We introduced all of her new schoolmates, and most of
them hate her because of her planetary outer planetary weirdness,
except one guy, her love interest, Greg, who just keeps
shooting looks at her, these puppy dog looks.

Speaker 2 (32:37):
I'm not gonna lie, Greg, your puppy dog looks for
starting to get a little a little creepy for me.
What was that word again, a little a little inky,
a little inky for me Greg a little.

Speaker 3 (32:49):
It was it a major inky or minor inky At
this point, it.

Speaker 2 (32:52):
Was it was minor because he was sweet and wasn't
doing anything crazy.

Speaker 1 (32:55):
But you know, so we established their relationship quickly, and
it turns out this guy's very into horses, so much
so that we spend like ten minutes at a barn
and then it never comes up again.

Speaker 2 (33:13):
I think again it goes and maybe it will. I okay,
I will say, I've never seen this sequel.

Speaker 3 (33:18):
Well maybe in the zequel. The zequel could be about sources.

Speaker 2 (33:21):
Yeah, maybe we're gonna get more of the stuff that
we didn't get. Feel like we got enough of.

Speaker 1 (33:25):
Okay, that could be, that's my thought. But they're back
on the space station. So I wonder if Greg's even
in the sequel.

Speaker 3 (33:30):
I can't wait. Yeah, who knows, I can't wait till sequel.

Speaker 2 (33:32):
Mud he bring his horse.

Speaker 3 (33:33):
That seems crazy. It sounds like the start of a joke.
So a horse walks into a space station. It does.
It's very, very crazy.

Speaker 1 (33:41):
But so through a series of events you find out
what happened on the space station was actually they put
a virus in the space station, and the key to
shutting down the virus was in this little disc that
then he drops. Of course, Raven happens to find on
the on the ground, makes it into an earring to
give to Xenon as a parting gift, and as she

(34:03):
lands on Earth, then Lutz actually sees, wow, she's got
that disc that I badly need to make the nefarious
plan happen, and so on Earth he stops at nothing
to get the disc back.

Speaker 3 (34:16):
They ransacked the aunt's house. I mean, it's bad.

Speaker 2 (34:19):
When he comes to the ants house, that was like whoa, yes, oh, LUTs,
and you might be going a little too far. Cannot
just show up and these poor two kids. Greg tried
his hardest to be tough and didn't do anything.

Speaker 3 (34:36):
Greg, they're thirteen.

Speaker 1 (34:37):
It's like, Greg tried, but come on, Greg, get on
your horse and help out a little bit buddy.

Speaker 2 (34:42):
Here.

Speaker 3 (34:42):
I can't do anything. I can't do anything about it.
So yes, we again.

Speaker 1 (34:46):
We find out it's a computer virus that's gonna infect
the space station and crash it. So it means that
Xenon has been right the entire time. She's now got
to get back to the space station to save everybody.
So she needs her whole group of earth friends to
come help her, except of course, for Margie, who we
haven't talked about. Margie, who might be one of the
most awful bad girls in dcom history.

Speaker 2 (35:08):
She tries to drown her.

Speaker 3 (35:09):
Essentially, Margie is terrible.

Speaker 2 (35:15):
She is a terrible, terrible, jealous little thing. Yeah, my
thing is it happened so fast? She catches Greg looking
at this new girl. No, she makes a comment about
her when she's walking by before she does anything at.

Speaker 3 (35:30):
The restaurant, when she first sees her.

Speaker 2 (35:31):
Yeah, instance, she sees Greg see her, and instantly this
girl's gotta go. So I'm gonna try drowning her.

Speaker 3 (35:38):
Yeah, I'm gonna.

Speaker 4 (35:39):
And even when she helps later, it's just to get
Xenon back off the planet, just to get him back on.

Speaker 1 (35:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (35:44):
No, it's like you're gonna leave Greg and his horses
to me, my friend.

Speaker 2 (35:47):
Yeah. No, she's just yeah, she's she was bad.

Speaker 1 (35:50):
She was she was a bad, bad one. They did
they Disney really outdid themselves on her badness.

Speaker 2 (35:55):
Yeah, super cute girl, though she's a dorrible.

Speaker 4 (35:58):
Oh yeah, but the second she knocks her in the
pool like you've never seen water before, good luck breathing
Like wow, harsh oh.

Speaker 3 (36:06):
Man, Can we can we address Zene on s date
with Greg?

Speaker 2 (36:10):
Yes, I would love to.

Speaker 4 (36:12):
It's part of my Sabrina seas. I think it's so cute,
nice waterfront restaurant. But she eats so much that he
shames her for how expenses the date.

Speaker 2 (36:20):
Is going to be, because again he's little. He also says,
do you know how many horses I'm gonna have to clean?

Speaker 4 (36:27):
Now?

Speaker 2 (36:27):
You cannot just order? That's so rude. You cannot just
order all of that?

Speaker 3 (36:32):
What do you mean it's a date?

Speaker 2 (36:33):
You should let your date order whatever they want. I mean,
what kind of dates were you going on at that
age where you were just saying to your the person,
you're on a date, Sure, you want a salad? Can
I get you four appetizers? Looks like you want to
hold buy a pizza? Does that sound great?

Speaker 1 (36:50):
No?

Speaker 2 (36:51):
Will that's not okay, she's taking advantage of it.

Speaker 3 (36:55):
Okay, Oh that's great, that's great.

Speaker 1 (36:57):
So while while they're on the date, he could have
he could have saved a little bit of the money
to help out in the space station, because the five
hundred million dollars wasn't going to cut it, and the
space station is now starting we keep cutting back and
it's starting to slowly shut down system by system. I'
llah Passengers with Chris Pratt and what's her name? Where
just one system at a time? Is I think Passengers
is just a modern version of Xenon. By the way,

(37:19):
that's that's my hot take for the day. Okay, So
her new friends and her absolutely cheap boyfriend now have
to figure out how they can help the space station.
So one of her new friends is kind of a
computer hacker. Yeah, he helps hack one of her tablets
so that she can contact people on the space station
at least kind of warn them. And then they figure

(37:41):
out that that oh, Mike, wait, that's right, Microbe is
going up to the space station with my boy Proda. Yeah,
and so I'm going to see if I can hop
on the space station. So of course she walks right
up to the band and says, can I hop on
the space Shuttle? And essentially they say yes because she
won the contest to dance with them, so they say,

(38:02):
you've got to let her on the space station, even
though by this point the entire Windom organization is looking
for her with orders to stop her anywhere.

Speaker 3 (38:11):
She crashes the gate. Mm hmm, makes it to the band.

Speaker 1 (38:15):
They throw her on the Space Shuttle, and now Windom
and Lutz, hearing that Xenon is on there, jump on
the Space Shuttle too, and boom, they're also stuck right
on the shovel.

Speaker 2 (38:26):
Yes, but but also you got to go back and
talk about the fact that after these five kids run
right through a gate that's supposed to be highly secured,
good security, then the ant comes in about five minutes
later and.

Speaker 3 (38:43):
The same thing.

Speaker 2 (38:44):
Yeah, no, one, there's no extra security.

Speaker 3 (38:47):
Maybe get another guy, yeah, right, at.

Speaker 2 (38:49):
Least one more guy. Nor has Windham been even Hey,
by the way, that girl you've been talking about that
we're looking for, she's here here. No, please don't fire
me because I let her go through the gate.

Speaker 1 (39:02):
By the way, I also called Doug and he's gonna
come down and help me on guard gate duty because
it's just me in a broken gate.

Speaker 3 (39:08):
At this point. That was just not the best.

Speaker 2 (39:11):
Security the worst security guard guys.

Speaker 1 (39:13):
So she finally gets back to the space station. Once
she gets there, she's able to after all this time,
convince everybody that Wyndham and LUTs are in fact bad guys,
and she saves the station by of course, repeatedly punching
buttons into a keypad until she hits the right buttons again.

Speaker 3 (39:32):
Great security. You can just keep typing failed.

Speaker 2 (39:35):
Three times and then finally boom.

Speaker 1 (39:39):
Your iPhone shuts down after like four times. Right, but
you're but the space station. You can just keep keep going.
You can just keep going, no lockdown. It is the
computer equivalent of smashing through a gate because Doug is
not on guard duty, which is great. All this leads
up to finally the bad guys are arrested, and then
Micro gets to play at a concert up there in

(40:01):
space finally, which is great.

Speaker 2 (40:04):
Epic little performance that any loves love the dad.

Speaker 1 (40:10):
Love to see Protozoa playing up there. She shows how
how thankful a friend she is. She gives her dancing
prize to her best friend Raven, who gets up there
to dance. She kisses Greg goodbye over FaceTime, and then
that was just it.

Speaker 3 (40:25):
That was like the end of the movie. There was
no real.

Speaker 1 (40:27):
Goodbye with her and Greg, which I'm hoping he's in
the zequel. I hope Greg is in the l I
do too. Are they still dating? Is this a long
distance relationship at this point? Is it that's what I'm
h orbit relationship. I think what it is my orbit.

Speaker 2 (40:42):
Major relationship, minor not sure, not sure, We're not sure?
Is it?

Speaker 1 (40:47):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (40:47):
I hope we get it in the zequel.

Speaker 1 (40:48):
If the zequel starts with her on FaceTime with Greg like, hey,
hey babe, I'm going to be coming to see you
in like a month kind of thing.

Speaker 3 (40:55):
That'd be great, but who knows.

Speaker 4 (40:56):
And then him call her babe, didn't space babe, Hey,
space babe, Hey space babe.

Speaker 2 (41:04):
The best.

Speaker 3 (41:05):
Hey, space Babe, I'm gonna see you. I got my
horses and I'm gonna come see you on the space stations.

Speaker 2 (41:09):
They're ready to go.

Speaker 3 (41:10):
I think i'd be awesome.

Speaker 2 (41:12):
And so that's it.

Speaker 1 (41:13):
And then of course we end with the song super
Nova Girl, after your Zoom Zoom song, which you came
in singing today.

Speaker 2 (41:20):
Oh my gosh, it's just so good. I honestly was
getting ready. I turned on the end I to just
hear just getting in my.

Speaker 3 (41:29):
Group, getting in the zoom zoom groop my zen on zoom.
Oh that's the best.

Speaker 1 (41:41):
Why don't we start some real reviews. We know what
we think and what we've said about this film. Let's
see what other people think, Sabrina, what's our one star
review for the day?

Speaker 2 (41:50):
I really thought, you know, Jensen was gonna have a
hard time finding a one star review on this movie.

Speaker 3 (41:57):
I think, how can you have a problem?

Speaker 6 (41:59):
I not.

Speaker 2 (42:00):
I mean, I know he'd find one, but never has
a problem. But you know, I just feel like this
movie was so good. So I'm unfortunately, guys, he did
find one and it's by Corbyn B We're gonna have
to find out if that's Corbyn Blue or not.

Speaker 6 (42:14):
I will.

Speaker 2 (42:17):
Secret hat just kidding. All right, here we go. One star.
The worst movie I ever watched. Makes me feel like
scooping my eyes out with spoons and burning them in
a fire.

Speaker 3 (42:30):
There's no gray area in that review. There's no like well,
but I'm open to interpretation. I've got to watch it
again kind of thing.

Speaker 2 (42:38):
Listen, I rather that be. If you're gonna have this
negative review, stick with it. Don't don't start don't start.

Speaker 3 (42:45):
Wobbling on me and behind it like like a bad gait.

Speaker 2 (42:49):
I know we're probably not supposed to say our opinions,
but Corbyn, you could not be more wrong. You hate.

Speaker 1 (42:55):
I am now going to read the five star review
by somebody named Hasna, and it's my favorite five star
review I've ever read in my life. I'm reading it verbatim.
A memorable night. I had a fantastic evening at Xenon
in Dubai with my friends. Amazing food and drinks. Thank
you for the nice night. Yes, this person left a
food review for a place called Xenon that is a

(43:16):
restaurant in Dubai, and it is my favorite five.

Speaker 3 (43:21):
Star review I've ever read. It's perfect. We do not
make these up people, Producer Jensen finds all these I
want to read it again. A memorable night.

Speaker 1 (43:30):
I had a fantastic evening at Xenon and my friends,
amazing food and drinks. Thank you for the nice night.
I think that says it all about Xenon. Frankly sure,
and I'm very happy with our reviews. We are now
going to jump into a new game, which we'd like
to do every once in a while.

Speaker 3 (43:44):
I love it, and a new game, this one we're
calling quote end quote.

Speaker 1 (43:49):
We're going to get three quotes about the movie Xenon
Girl of twenty first Century. One of them is real,
an actual quote from one of the cast or crew,
but the other two are completely made up.

Speaker 3 (43:58):
And we have to figure out which one is real.
I have no idea which one's real and which isn't. Okay,
I don't think you know which one's real or which
which one is I do not.

Speaker 2 (44:07):
I do not.

Speaker 3 (44:08):
So here we go.

Speaker 1 (44:09):
Quote number one. I say, we read them all and
then at the end we pick what it is. Yes, okay,
So here are real or fake? Number one quote. The
shots and the recycling bins were brutal. We'd spend six
to eight hours in there just trying to get the
lighting right. Then someone figured out that the first AD's
dog had been taking poops in there. It smelled like

(44:29):
feces and rubber. End quote number two quote. A lot
of people think our movie predicted FaceTime, which might be true.
But I also think we influence the way people wear vests.
Before the first movie, I hardly saw vests. Now all
I see are vests. End quote number three quote. There

(44:50):
was talk of actually doing a Xenon series and Xenon
movies in theaters. Something happened that prevented it. It might
have been nine to eleven end quote.

Speaker 2 (44:59):
The only one that I would hope would actually be
true on this one is the first one.

Speaker 3 (45:05):
The other one. See the ones are terrible. Yeah, I hope.
I hope the first one is true too.

Speaker 2 (45:11):
They don't hope that someone had to shoot in a
place where someone's dog was booping a lot.

Speaker 3 (45:17):
But I have a fear that the third one is
actually the real one. I don't know why.

Speaker 2 (45:23):
And I would have to roll my eyes if the
second one is. Yes, predicting everyone wearing vest sounds.

Speaker 1 (45:30):
Yeah, I think we could throw that one away. I
don't think it's the best one. I don't think it's
the best one.

Speaker 2 (45:34):
Okay, although there were a lot of vests.

Speaker 3 (45:38):
Oh it was great.

Speaker 1 (45:38):
It was.

Speaker 3 (45:39):
It was a vest heavy thing.

Speaker 2 (45:40):
It was kind of part of their uniform ish.

Speaker 3 (45:42):
Yeah, I'm going to say three is the real one?
Are you gonna go with one? I'm gonna go with one,
all right, So Producer Jensen, which one's real?

Speaker 6 (45:51):
It's the third one? Stuart Plank and who you know,
Commander Plank. He said it on a podcast in twenty twenty.
He that there were a lot of plans for Zenon,
but possibly nine to eleven ruined them.

Speaker 3 (46:07):
Oh, well, there we go. I got it right.

Speaker 6 (46:10):
I was hoping when they talk about the history of
nine to eleven it's not talked about how much it affected.

Speaker 1 (46:16):
Dacon's No, no, not usually, usually there were bigger things
on the menu than DCM. Just well, thank you producer
Jensen for quote end quote. Let's get into Sabrina seas.

Speaker 2 (46:30):
Well, we've already gone through. The biggest thing, you know,
I've seen in the very beginning is all of the iPad,
the FaceTime, all of that stuff. I just I loved
that about this movie. I thought that was so cool.
I love that once again, Disney just seems to be
able to predict the future. It just feels like that. Yeah.
One of the things that I kind of hinted towards

(46:54):
was the mom's stress cap that you Oh, man.

Speaker 3 (46:59):
I wish they could the stress cap in the chill room.
I would invest in those. Right now.

Speaker 2 (47:04):
I was going, what the hell is she?

Speaker 1 (47:07):
What is that?

Speaker 2 (47:08):
What are they even trying to do? Then they they
explain what it is, and I'm all of a sudden
finding myself going, oh, I want maybe I need one
of those. I want one of those, and now I
want one done.

Speaker 3 (47:21):
You almost enter to the chill chamber and always think
is like, oh my god, I want.

Speaker 2 (47:24):
To chill the chill chamber when when Rose and Ledger
are both just having meltdowns at the same time, where
is the chill chamber?

Speaker 3 (47:33):
Chill chamber totally?

Speaker 2 (47:36):
And then the another one was it was so funny.
We talked a little bit about it with Greg and
his horse that he works at a stable and it's never.

Speaker 3 (47:46):
Talked about his horse, Larry.

Speaker 2 (47:48):
But I also kept finding myself going, has Greg done
this little date day date before? He seems really.

Speaker 3 (47:56):
Secret this day date.

Speaker 2 (47:58):
I'm like, are you group player?

Speaker 1 (48:01):
Greg? I do?

Speaker 3 (48:02):
So his friends are like, yo, Greg, you taking it
to the barn.

Speaker 2 (48:04):
Again, wondering if Margie's been on this horse and and
they've trumped Yeah, and Mark, you know, so I kind
of can't. There was just he was just so suave
in that whole day that I just started going, oh,
maybe we don't might be a player. And then my

(48:24):
last one, well, this actually is a little bit before
this was this whole you know virus with the disc
and he puts it in, takes it out, walks away
and loses it so fast he was he was, yeah,
two feet from the door and and just drops it

(48:46):
and you heard it clink. We heard it clink. Why
didn't you hear it what what happened? That's when I went, oh,
and then it just seemed like he when he saw
it in her ear, even though it was sort of
disguised because Nebula has glammed and gemmed and rhinestone did upright?
Would you think thought he would have just tried to

(49:08):
I mean, I wouldn't want, you know, a grown up
to wrestle a kid. But wouldn't you think he would
have grabbed and said, let me I need right away?
If it was a big deal, like I don't know,
blowing up a whole space.

Speaker 1 (49:20):
Station, I think Disney probably wouldn't have been happy with that.
But yes, no, I know, but I'm just saying it.

Speaker 2 (49:25):
It was just so easy.

Speaker 3 (49:27):
He was just kind of not the smart villain.

Speaker 2 (49:31):
He had the brightest suits in the in the rack,
but wasn't the brightest cran in the box like that.

Speaker 3 (49:38):
That's that's so true.

Speaker 1 (49:39):
He Also I love the fact that the restricted area
on the space station only took four digits to get into,
like a like an ATM pin code.

Speaker 2 (49:46):
You have six on your iPhone for digits to get
into a place. That could just get into.

Speaker 1 (49:51):
The most restricted area. The key, the key to get
in was like thirteen fifty nine, that was it, and
she had to write it down and then forgot it.

Speaker 2 (50:00):
Forget it anyway, Well we're we should be glad that
it wasn't five five five.

Speaker 3 (50:06):
It's what it's password.

Speaker 2 (50:08):
Yeah, that's all right, that's all I got.

Speaker 1 (50:11):
All right, Well, now's that time to rate the movie. Yes,
today we're going to do one out of ten?

Speaker 3 (50:16):
What do you think?

Speaker 1 (50:17):
Floating rat holograms, recycled trash clothes, seat us, lapitases, disc earrings.
I have horse guys on the list, but I'm gonna
make it player horse guys or mistaken dubai zen on restaurants.

Speaker 2 (50:34):
I think we got to do Cetus lapidis. Okay, I
think I think Tara will just die if we die.

Speaker 3 (50:39):
I think that she needs us to do it. How
many cetuses lapedises do you give this?

Speaker 2 (50:48):
One?

Speaker 3 (50:48):
Out of ten ceases lapetises? What do we got?

Speaker 1 (50:50):
One being the worst, ten being the best? How many
cetuses lapitises do you give this?

Speaker 2 (50:54):
This is like I said, I've been waiting to rewatch
this since we did, since we start arted doing this.
I'm giving it a nine. Only nobody come at me,
Everybody calm down. Only because I'm expecting there's two movies
after this that the sequel, the zequel, and then three
and then Z three is probably gonna be even that

(51:16):
much better.

Speaker 1 (51:17):
So well, that one's actually shot in space. Disney went
all out for that. It's actually the iss, so I'm.

Speaker 7 (51:25):
Going I lost three actors, nine cetases, loopedases.

Speaker 1 (51:29):
Nice you give you give more praise than I do.
I thought it was very good, but nines and tens
are tough for me. I'm gonna give it a solid eight,
though I'm gonna give it eight cetuses lapedises because it
deserved it is that it was good, the acting was good,
the the premise is great. Obviously, it's a new kind
of take on a romp. Watching this movie was so

(51:52):
much better for me having spoken to Stu Krieger first.

Speaker 2 (51:55):
Yes, I loved that. I mean, I feel for us.
It's harder to because we were talking and he started
referencing things with Smarth House, which I've never watched. I've started,
so it was tough. So I know we can't do
that all the time, as the interview before we watch,
but it was such great insight to be able to

(52:17):
think about and it made me enjoy touching the movie
so much more than I even remember loving it from
the beginning.

Speaker 3 (52:25):
I agree.

Speaker 1 (52:26):
So that's it, folks, Thank you so much for taking
a very very very quick shuttle ride up to the
space day with us for a major awesome film. Frankly
that got a number of CTAs is lapedises from us
because it was good. So thank you once again for
joining us. Our next movie is actually the most current

(52:48):
movie we're doing to date. It was only from last year.
We're gonna be watching Prompact next.

Speaker 3 (52:54):
I know, I know nothing of this movie. I assume
it has something to do with the problem I love.

Speaker 2 (53:01):
PROM so I am already trying to find my throwback
pictures to pop up on my Instagram for the prom Oh.
I'm so excited, and I'm excited to see because I've
kind of transitioned out of scene d coms now, you know,
I don't. I'm not on the know with what's happening
on the channel all the time, so I'm excited to

(53:23):
see where the channel's at with their dcoms. I cannot
wait to watch this next one.

Speaker 3 (53:27):
I can't either.

Speaker 1 (53:28):
It's gonna be interesting to go right from one from
nineteen ninety nine, which is the sixth one they did
to one from last year just to see how much
of a change it was.

Speaker 3 (53:36):
So that's it. Thanks everybody for joining us.
