Speaker 1 (00:15):
Oh yes, Wow, you did it up.

Speaker 2 (00:23):
Wow, Oh wow.

Speaker 1 (00:27):
I don't even know what to say. I don't I'm
so I almost wore the same thing. It would have
been so awkward.

Speaker 2 (00:33):
Sweart of god. I don't think I'm going to ever
do a recording with all this bow on my headphones.

Speaker 1 (00:37):
You look out, She's cute, geez. I thought you were
just going to start with your leg up in the air,
just putting on your own stockings to get everything just
nicely right. What did you just ask me to do? Leg?

Speaker 2 (00:49):
What?

Speaker 1 (00:50):
Okay? First of all, that looks like you're holding somebody
else's leg because it's so close to your body that
it's freakish, and it looks like you were like there's
somebody else they're just holding on your leg.

Speaker 2 (01:01):
Oh my god. If you're not practicing to be on
the Olympic gymnast team, I don't know what you're doing.
Because it's true, you have to talk about the Olympics
for like five seconds, don't you, Cary.

Speaker 1 (01:12):
Let's I do because as I watch it all, of course,
of course, and as I watch I point out the
moves that I could do, so like when they're on
the balance beam and they're just standing there, I'm like,
I could do that. Or when they then drop down
and they do like the just the between the legs
like this, but they don't actually move, I'm like, I
would hurt, but I could do that. Yeah, it would
hurt when they're actually moving in any way, shape or form.

(01:34):
I couldn't do that. Did you. You did gymnastics as
a kid, didn't you.

Speaker 2 (01:38):
No, not like this. I did floor work, so I
can do aerials. The things that they do on that
tumbling floor. I can't do most of it.

Speaker 1 (01:47):
But I can do a few, which, by the way,
I want all all of my homes floors to change.
I want to change it to all those tumbling floors
so you could just jump down the hallway.

Speaker 2 (01:57):
I can do pretty much stuff that goes into it.
Like I can do a round up that handspring. I
still can. By the way, I tested it out after
two babies. I can still do it.

Speaker 1 (02:09):
That's the thing where eventually you're gonna hurt yourself, but
all right, go ahead, you know what.

Speaker 2 (02:12):
But I had to prove it. There's things that you
have to make sure you prove that you can.

Speaker 1 (02:16):
Still get it.

Speaker 2 (02:17):
I cannot or even fathom. I used to when I
got scared with gymnastics.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
I was doing a double full a twist when you.

Speaker 2 (02:28):
Go backwards, Yes, it's twist, and you go rotate twice
and I landed on the floor like here was the floor.

Speaker 1 (02:39):
And then one and a half.

Speaker 2 (02:42):
I don't even know what I did, but at that
point my coach shocked to my parents. I was so
scared and I started when I came back, like you know,
took the day off, came back, went for it, and
my coach basically told my parents like, she's gonna hurt
she has this, and that's just when it stops. These

(03:05):
gymnastic women, yeah, fearless.

Speaker 1 (03:10):
Well until they get scared and then they That was
what what Simone Biles did the last Olympics was She's like, look,
I have the twisties, I'm in my head and I'm
just gonna hurt myself. And she's like, I'm not going
to hurt myself.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
For the first time you saw an athlete be true
about that.

Speaker 1 (03:25):
Yeah, like I'm gonna go I know myself well enough
to know that I'm going to do serious damage if
I go in with this mental headspace right now, So
I'm not gonna do it.

Speaker 2 (03:32):
It's so easy for anyone to say suck it up, go. No,
she Actually it was for me. I remember that in
that of course, my mind went as an athlete, as
you train, it is suck it up, go. But her stand,
to me took more strength than anything to say you

(03:54):
know what, no, Well.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
You're also in a sport where you can do serious, serious,
serious damage.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
You really hurt?

Speaker 1 (04:01):
Yeah, yea yeah. Have you seen any of the videos
where they show like what the Olympics were like in
the nineteen fifties, Like this is what a vault was,
and it's somebody running and jumping and putting their hands
with the vault and then landing and they're like get it.
Like now compared to what they're doing, it's like, oh,
she's doing a quadruple Tristan pit while on fire, and
you're like, oh okay.

Speaker 2 (04:18):
Yes, oh my gosh, it's it's unreal And how hard
that would be to be a parent.

Speaker 1 (04:24):
Oh I couldn't do You see the guy with the
with the heart monitor on No, Hesley's dad had a
heart monitor and it was it was It was one
of those things where I had I'd pressed nine to
one into my phone and had my finger over the
other one in case he hit the two hundred mark
because it was unhealthy. How high this man's heart rate was?
It really really was.

Speaker 2 (04:44):
Well, anyway, sorry, we had to talk about the Olympics,
Like I, this is my only I get it for
the you are actually interrupting my jobs that I'm supposed to.

Speaker 1 (04:54):
Watching the other I completely understand. Well, then let's get
through today because we're all so we were doing a
movie today where it shows the other side of sports
and also how you know maybe driving a car isn't
the healthiest thing in the world. Well we'll get into that,
but anyway, welcome back to Magical Rewind, the show that
makes you want to grab your friends, your pjs, and

(05:14):
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 (05:20):
I'm wilfrid Dell and I'm Sabrain and Brien Well jeepers,
Everyone break out the poodle skirt because today we're taking
on nineteen ninety six is somewhat controversial Disney Channel premiere
film SUSIEQ, And it's more than just Megan Martin from
Camp Rock's favorite Disney Channel movie.

Speaker 1 (05:37):
It's a fantasy slash comedy. I would say that originally
this is okay, so the kind of the making of
this movie is bonkers. It originally aired in Germany on
the Disney affiliate super RTL, and that's because once again
we've entered a third party production, so all the rules
for Disney Channel are thrown out, and wow are they

(05:58):
thrown out. The legend. Darry Saban Entertainment, best known as
the mines behind Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, which that will
come into play, later produced the movie under their Libra
Pictures banner, and this was their only Disney commission project
ever won and done, and I think we could probably
guess why. After showing in Germany, it debuted on the
Disney Channel on October third, nineteen ninety six, one year

(06:19):
before the idea of the actual official d coom was
even invented. Disney never actually owned the rights to Susiq
until they purchased Box in two thousand and one, and
that conglomerate included Saban Entertainment. But even though it's part
of the library now, it is not on Disney Plus.
And I think we definitely know, like I said, why
that is. You can go watch it now free on YouTube, however,

(06:40):
and then you can come back to hear us talk
about it, or to the opposite of what I just said.
Not a big deal.

Speaker 2 (06:44):
No judgment here, no judgment.

Speaker 1 (06:46):
Sabrina judges you as I judge the thing in her
hair anyway he judges me, not everything I don't. Actually,
you're awesome. Now. One of the reasons that susie Q
continues to be talked about despite the fact that it's
not officially streaming anywhere, is this might just be the
least Disney Disney original movie ever made. It's dark, it's sad,

(07:10):
it's mature. It breaks a ton of the channel rules.

Speaker 2 (07:13):
Mature is a great word you're you're using, because that
is not the word I.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
Would in just the first ten minutes. It is so
not Disney Channel or Disney esque even.

Speaker 2 (07:25):
No.

Speaker 1 (07:26):
Much like Song of the South, this is another Disney
property that is sort of kind of whispered about in
the dark corners, especially as apparently the original cut even
included profanity. What would Mickey think? Oh, No, I can't
say that. Oh. It was filmed in Canada, of course,
with what is reported to be a two million dollar
Canadian Canadian dollar budget, and I think the exchange rate

(07:47):
back there and that's like six moose. I'm kidding to
all my Canadian friends. Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, No, it's
again everything shot in Canada, but this was really shot
and funded in Canada. So again, a two million Canadian
dollar budget, and it doesn't look like they spent a
whole lot of money on the movie. That's not to
say they didn't do the best with what they had,

(08:08):
but this is definitely on the lower budget side for
the Disney Channel and it did almost give off old
school late eighties early nineties after school special vibes. Lookwise, yes,
so you could tell this certainly did not have the
same budget essay the Descendants. Did you other than the

(08:29):
when we heard about Susieq from Megan, did you know
anything about this movie?

Speaker 2 (08:33):
I did not remember, but I'm telling you it took
me two seconds into it and I was like, I
remember this movie.

Speaker 1 (08:40):
Oh so you so you saw it? This is what
I've seen this before.

Speaker 2 (08:44):
Really, but again, no recollection of even what I mean
SUSIEQ gives you nothing.

Speaker 1 (08:52):
It's like thirteenth Year, Yeah, nothing.

Speaker 2 (08:55):
So I was remembering moments of it, not the whole thing.
But just as we went along, I went oh, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah,
you know. Oh that guy, that guy, you know, all
that kind of stuff, So all right. It was It
was actually really fun for me because it.

Speaker 1 (09:12):
Was remember that's always fun when you forgot you saw
something and then you see it and you're like, wait,
I've seen this exactly. Yeah, that's all.

Speaker 2 (09:21):
I had that whole thing, ups and downs and going
oh what don't like that?

Speaker 1 (09:27):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (09:27):
I like that moment.

Speaker 1 (09:28):
Okay, Oh, I'm going to give you three guesses onto
whether or not you think I knew anything about this movie.

Speaker 2 (09:34):
I'm pretty sure I'm gonna guess right in the fact
that you watched this on replay.

Speaker 1 (09:41):
This was my fifty seventh showing yes.

Speaker 2 (09:44):
Yes.

Speaker 1 (09:44):
I like to treat it like the Rocky Horror Picture Show.
I dressed up like the characters. I throw stuff at
the screen. It's great.

Speaker 2 (09:49):
Wait, what do you like to dress up like that?

Speaker 1 (09:51):
What? I knew nothing? I knew nothing about it. And
Amy Amy Joe who will get into starred you know,
was Susie Q was actually on podmets. I don't think
we've talked about it though. I don't think we talked
about Susie Q, I can't remember before we give up
basketball forever. Let's get into the synopsis. A high school
student grieving the recent death of his father befriends the
ghost of a young girl nicknamed SUSIEQ that is haunting

(10:15):
his family's new home in hopes of coming to terms
with the car crash that took her life. Not exactly
high school musical. Early thoughts, Sabrina, what did you think?

Speaker 2 (10:26):
Oh man, do you know the hardest part? And it's
going to keep coming out because there's just no way
I'm gonna get around this. I was looking at this
as a mom the first thing in the car. Sure,
I actually loved the couple. I thought Susie was the
cutest jutis her boyfriend was the sweetest, looked like he

(10:48):
was a respectable guy. Then comes in another group of
teenagers who likes dad androls like, what that is my
worst nightmare? Worst Nightmar's mom now? And then you know
when I started going, uh oh, there was like it
wasn't one hundred percent clear, but was there a beer

(11:11):
can or body they were drinking? Came out?

Speaker 3 (11:13):
They get into all this because just crazy, I mean.

Speaker 2 (11:20):
I just was. But again, we didn't preface this. I
don't feel like this was preface because it's on YouTube.
Was not d coom, so I'm not putting it in
next to Camp.

Speaker 1 (11:32):
But it's still a Disney Channel premiere film, so this
is still this was a d com before the d com, right.

Speaker 2 (11:40):
But I feel like I was more in, like, Okay,
I'm gonna set myself into the magical world because I
remember with your movie date with President's daughter, them being
in a biker bar, them having beer bottles.

Speaker 1 (11:50):
It's a little different.

Speaker 2 (11:51):
That was different, so I kind of had to make
sure I was adjusted into what what I was looking for.

Speaker 1 (11:56):
Yes, but man, they they start right off the back.

Speaker 2 (11:58):
I cried, did you Yes?

Speaker 1 (12:00):
I did? Did you really?

Speaker 2 (12:01):
Oh? I liked them and them just it just it's
so slow.

Speaker 1 (12:08):
I knew nothing about this movie at all. I had
no idea what was what to expect. I love Amy
Joe Johnson. She I thought she was great in Power
Rangers and everything else. So I also know Justin Whalen
back in the day, he and I hung out a bit,
we had mutual friends. Very good guy, so the cast.
I liked the story. Again, the story has some pretty

(12:32):
gaping ridiculous holes, but it is. It was like for me,
it was like a photo negative of a d coom
where they it wasn't It wasn't a fully formed d
coom yet, but they were on the track of making
a Disney Channel original movie.

Speaker 2 (12:52):
At this point. They're manipulating of what they want a
dcom too.

Speaker 1 (12:55):
Yes, it was a skeleton of what is to come,
but you have.

Speaker 2 (12:59):
To do trial with that.

Speaker 1 (13:00):
Yeah, but it did. It reminded me a little bit
of so when we were when I was in high
school in the middle school, they would show these movies
to us, like Blood and the Asphalt and these movies
about drunk driving or these kind of oh yes, okay,
these you know are not getting pregnant, like meat Billy
he didn't stop to get a condom like those kind
of movies. And so and now Billy's got a child

(13:23):
and he can't go out and play soccer with his friend.
There's part of me like it felt a little like that. Yeah,
it was kind of between that and what a dcom becomes.
And that's why I say it's the ameba of a
d com, if that makes sense. So I felt what
it was, didn't hate it, just it wasn't.

Speaker 2 (13:42):
That definitely easily see the growing pains.

Speaker 1 (13:45):
Yes, yes, that's what I mean.

Speaker 2 (13:47):
What the formulation of what is true Dcom's getting this is.

Speaker 1 (13:51):
A pencil sketch compared to the full animation.

Speaker 2 (13:54):
We do start from the beginning. I mean it does
right from the beginning. It slaps you in the face.

Speaker 1 (13:59):
It it does. It slaps in the face with some
naked So the movie stars a nineties icon and someone
who is a very close connection to Sabon Entertainment. That's
Amy Joe Johnson, who were just talking about. Who is
the titular Susie Q, best known as Kimberly Hart aka
the Pink Ranger on Sabon's original Mighty morphin Power Rangers
and then later as Julie on fifty episodes of Felicity.

(14:21):
Justin Whaling who I was just talking about, plays Zach Sands.
He appeared on shows like Charles in Charge, The Wonder Years,
and Blossom, but it is best known as young Andy
Barclay to Chucky in Child's Play three and as Jimmy
Olsen on the Lewis and Clark TV show. He also
in a Daytime Emmy for a School Break special Other
Mothers Jensen for some reason also thinks he looks and
sounds a lot like me. I don't know if anybody

(14:44):
else agrees with that, but either way, he was a
good guy. I knew him, very good guy. He retired
from acting in two thousand and nine and is now
a social studies teacher in Flintridge, California, which is pretty cool.
I always love such and the legendary Shelley Long played
Zach's mom. Penny. Shelley is a six time Emmy nominee,
one time winner, and that was for the role, of course,
of Diane Chambers, one of the greatest sitcom characters ever,

(15:07):
on one of the greatest sitcoms ever, where Everybody Knows
Your Name on Cheers. She was also in the Tom
Hanks comedy The Money Pit, great movie, one of my
wife's favorites, A Troop Beverly Hills, and Play Yeah See,
There You Go, and played Carol Brady in the satirical
movie reboot of The Brady Bunch movie in nineteen ninety five.
She was so funny. She recently popped up on Modern Family,

(15:28):
but she was a big A list star in the
eighties and the nineties. One of the things she is
known for is walking off of cheers. At its height,
she became one of the people where people would say, hey, wow,
Shelley Long just walked away, and she, you know, probably
regrets it. I think she's actually talked about how she
writs it. And one last actor worth mentioning here and
it's just a cameo is the police officer who shows

(15:49):
up at the end of the movie. Is played by
comedian Will Sasso, who was appearing on Mad TV at
the time and was really quite a surprise to see
in the movie. This movie run. It's a great but
it was a funny It was a funny bit. This
movie runs. It's happening, Saprina ninety minutes.

Speaker 2 (16:07):
A ninety minutes to seven y six secoms.

Speaker 1 (16:16):
We have done it, ninety minutes. It has happened. We
hit the Bullseye people. Nothing will ever be the same.
Nothing tastes the same, nothing smells the same. Blues look
like greens, dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria. The
perfect decom duration has been reached. It was directed by
John Blizzek, who also had a strong connection to the
production company since he was the editor of Power Rangers

(16:39):
and directed something called v R Troopers for Saban, which
apparently was a show about a trio of teens who
gained powers from virtual reality to fight evil. Shockingly, it
only lasted one season. Susi Q was written by Douglas Sloan,
who also did some Power Rangers work, but most importantly
is the man behind Johnny Tsunami and Motocrossed, so he

(17:02):
was obviously no stranger to Disney. Shuki Levy also gets
a writing credit, as well as a producer and composer
and probably caterer and every other thing. Shuki did everything.
He is considered one of the fathers of Saban entertainment
and was also the composers for basically every eighties cartoon
that existed, from He Man to Inspect Your Gadget to
Mask the Greatest cartoon of all time. Literally did them all.

(17:25):
It was incredible. It's kind of funny that Shuki is
such a big time composer for kids entertainment because the
movie uses music that he made here that is really
really weird and startling at sometimes it's really loud. Yeah,
and he kind of made sound alikes for Douop music.
Do you remember the music that I'm talking about? It's yes,
it's fifties music without you think you had to pay

(17:47):
for fifties music.

Speaker 2 (17:49):
Yeah, it was so close that I was going, oh yeah,
oh no, yeah, no, no, no, no, no, yeah, that's
not it. It was that close, It really was.

Speaker 1 (18:00):
It's like they couldn't afford duops, so they made duo.

Speaker 2 (18:03):
Yeah I wish no but.

Speaker 1 (18:08):
Inspector Gatt Mass Crusaders Fighting over Time, Fighting crime, Fighting crime.
Oh my god. I listened to it three times this
morning because it's one of the greatest ever hate we
have never heard it before Mass in nineteen eighty four.
I think Masking Out it was the toy to have.
I still have them all. It was the coolest cartoon ever.

(18:28):
If ever there needs a reboot, I won it. So
in the movie, we open in Willow Valley, Washington in
the year nineteen fifty five. This is a strange opening
because we see a girl getting ready for a big night,
similar to our Demi Levado intro in Camp Rock, But

(18:50):
right off the bat, this is not gonna be camp
Rock because we see her naked back trying to put
on a dress like a bra behind and it's just
not fitting a lot more skin than we are used to.
Right off the bat she's putting on, like the leg
comes up, like you just did that weird leg thing.
The leg comes up and she's putting on nylons. I mean,

(19:12):
this is not just putting on a little bit of lipstick.
We're watching her get dressed. Yes, in the first seconds
of the movie.

Speaker 2 (19:18):
Without seeing the ooh ooh parts, we saw pretty much
all of it.

Speaker 1 (19:22):
Yeah, we didn't see ooh uh or we didn't see
any of that, but we were led to believe that
it's all right there.

Speaker 2 (19:30):
It's all right there.

Speaker 1 (19:31):
She gets her lipstick just right as a fancy fifty
Chevy pulls up and it is her date, also dressed
up like a nice greaser who's about to get married.
Just before she makes her way downstairs, she stumbles on
her high heels and decides to wear sneakers instead, showing
you that even on a fancy night, she is a
real chill type of girl. Then we meet her old grandfather,
who seems to be a little senile. He's found his

(19:53):
way out of bed and is looking for some important
paperwork in the closet. Remember this, people, it's going to
be important, he says. There incredibly important papers for the family,
and she has to give them to her mother, but
he's also kind of in and out of sanity these days,
so she lays him down to meet her date at
the door. She promises that she will get her mom
to come up and speak to him. It is winter

(20:13):
formal at school and her parents are taking pictures of
the Q couple. Her date is the star basketball player
and her dad is the coach of the basketball team.
It is a beautiful all American moment. They walk out
and we get a shot of her grandfather weirdly saying
to himself in another room, Susie, You're gonna be the
Queen of the ball.

Speaker 2 (20:30):
And then does he die in that moment?

Speaker 1 (20:33):
Yes, I'm wondering, does he say You're going to be
the bell of the ball and then he died? I
mean it almost plays like he just died.

Speaker 2 (20:40):
I mean, I don't know. We don't know, because the
night ends.

Speaker 1 (20:43):
Yes, we don't know. We don't know. Here's where again,
we are not starting dcom at all. The couple's on
their way, but before they leave, her boyfriend gives Susie
a charm bracelet and a kiss. She'll never forget this night,
and she is not wrong. On the drive they're dancing,
they're having fun. It is a pretty lame driving scene.
All the driving scenes in this movie are not good.

(21:04):
But they're dancing, they're having fun.

Speaker 2 (21:07):
I think the charm bracelet was lame. This is a
sprain of seeds. I'm gonna get right into it really quickly.

Speaker 1 (21:12):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (21:12):
It was like, here's this bracelet that has all these
things on it, and then you can add things to it.

Speaker 1 (21:21):
I wonder if the word charm is charm bracelet, maybe trademark.

Speaker 2 (21:25):
Bracelet with these things on it. And it was a
thing bracelet, things to it. I was like, if Jordan
gave me this bracelet, I'd be like, no, thank you.

Speaker 1 (21:37):
Don't want a thing bracelet. You can put other things
on it.

Speaker 2 (21:40):
He had no confidence and.

Speaker 1 (21:42):
Was a sixteen year old boy. I'm sure his life
after this night would be great.

Speaker 3 (21:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (21:47):
I fixate on way too many details. I guess sorry.

Speaker 1 (21:51):
Love it. So they're on their way. He gets the
charm bracelet, she'll never forget this night. But on the drive,
they're dancing, having fun. But that's when we cut to
another car are filled with teen ruffians driving hat passed.

Speaker 4 (22:03):
Ouligans, ooligans, and they're drinking, drinking.

Speaker 1 (22:08):
Drinking and driving again. This gave me real blood on
the asphalt vibes. It was, you know, the that's when
you know, oh wow, look at Sarah. She is sitting
there with a beer and she is not wearing your
seat belt like that kind of thing. It felt that
vibe to me.

Speaker 2 (22:24):
Yeah, it was.

Speaker 1 (22:25):
But talk about the least ever Disney Channel thing you've
ever seen? Four kids in a car, no seat belts, drinking.

Speaker 2 (22:34):
Paying at the way with our helmet exactly.

Speaker 1 (22:40):
Your skirt had to be below the ankles for I.

Speaker 2 (22:43):
Had to have full length skirts.

Speaker 1 (22:45):
Shot bid you saw any leg This was shock, especially
when you can hold it up the way you just did,
like it was right next to your body. The skirts. So,
as Susie and her date make their way over the
town Bridge, a police car passes with a siren on,
and this reminds Susie her grandparents need to get that
paperwork for her mom. I still don't know entirely why
the police car. I'm not even sure that was a

(23:07):
police car in nineteen fifty five. That might have been
an ambulance. And I think maybe seeing the ambulance is
what reminded her of her grandfather jumping right.

Speaker 2 (23:15):
To my Sabarina ses, what the heck was that police
car for. Yeah, they clearly didn't pull over, no car
full of oligans.

Speaker 1 (23:24):
I think it was an ambulance.

Speaker 2 (23:25):
It was just so Oh. Do you think he was
an ambulance for her grandfather?

Speaker 1 (23:29):
I do. I think that was a nineteen fifty five
ambulance going to still going to her grandfather, which is
what made her remind That's why I think he died
in that moment. And then the ambulance going to her grandfather.
That's what I thought. That's what I thought. Oh my gosh,
they're going to help her grandpa.

Speaker 2 (23:43):
That's what I thought.

Speaker 1 (23:44):
Changes the whole thing. It does, That's what I thought.
But this reminds Susie, your grandpa needs to get the
paperwork for her mom. Now it's bothering her. Why didn't
she do it earlier? So she convinces her date to
turn around and go back home. Unfortunately, he's the worst
turnarounder in the history of the world.

Speaker 2 (24:00):
He is awesome powers, he's me and my mom car
I cannot get out of the vacuum spot. I gotta
do two or three. Sorry, I don't.

Speaker 1 (24:16):
I think the first day you and I met at
the photo shoot. We walked out of the garage together
and I think, I saw you do a sixty two
point turn gets myself.

Speaker 2 (24:25):
I don't know if I'm going to hit itsive, a car,
a pole, something's gonna be there. You did.

Speaker 1 (24:31):
Of course, you're at one point you're in danger of
hitting yourself. That's how bad it was. So the drunk
driver is speeding towards them at full speed. They try
to get out of the way very slowly, but they can't.
Now his car won't start, They can't get out of
the way, and so boom, there is a crash, sending
Susie's car into the side of the bridge. We see
them bloodied and kind of unconscious, which makes sense because

(24:54):
if they were conscious, they'd had nine minutes to get
out of the car, because it was the slowest car
wreck in the history of the world. I know.

Speaker 2 (24:59):
But he reaches for his hand. I mean, I just
this is when I started just losing it.

Speaker 1 (25:05):
Oh. I thought she was reaching past them to push
him out the door, to break her fall. That's what
I thought it was gonna be.

Speaker 2 (25:11):
She was reaching for his hand. They had this moment.

Speaker 1 (25:14):
Maybe she was trying to give the bracelet. I don't
want to be found.

Speaker 2 (25:19):
Give you forgiving me a thing.

Speaker 1 (25:25):
So they hold hands as the car drops into the
water and submerges completely. And our main characters are dead.
They're dead. They're dead. Welcome to Disney Channel. They're dead.
What are you thinking at this point? Like all in
the movie we just watched, these characters are dead.

Speaker 2 (25:44):
I know I I was devastated. Honestly, I really already
just fell in love with this couple. I thought they
were so cute. I was waiting for all the magic
to happen.

Speaker 1 (25:54):
Well it didn't, and then it would That was it.
They never even made it to their dance. We then
cut to night ninety five, still in Willow Valley, but
now we see a mom and her two kids, a
son and daughter, Zach and Terry, lost on a drive.
They're looking at this thing. You can look it up now.
It's called a map. The mom, played by Shelley Long,
has taken a new job out here in the middle
of nowhere and moved from Los Angeles. The kids aren't

(26:16):
sure about this decision, but they pull up to their
new beautiful home and are just going to give it
a shot, even if includes a lot of teenage angst Terry.
The young daughter, is the first to notice something weird
while filling up a bucket of water. The sink starts
and stops without anyone touching it. She thinks it's a
big deal, but everyone else just chalks it up to
an old house. Meanwhile, as if this movie isn't sad enough,
we find out that the father is also dead, also

(26:40):
in a car accident.

Speaker 2 (26:42):
I'm sorry, I don't, I do not mean to nobody.

Speaker 1 (26:45):
Has Anybody who drives in this movie is killed.

Speaker 2 (26:47):
It's just as shocking it is everybody.

Speaker 1 (26:49):
We've got forty seven deaths in the first seven minutes
of the movie. Yes, very strange. So Shelley Long is
a widow and she stares longingly at the picture of
her husband, and which is just a photo of her husband.
There's no actual photos of the entire family together, It's
just a single shot of her husband. Dies that bother
you any think it did? I just thought to myself,

(27:10):
why not whatever extra actor that they had hired to
play the part, do a four minute photo shoot with
the family and have her pull out a picture of
her entire family instead of just It might as well
have just been a head shot.

Speaker 2 (27:20):
If it were me, this entire background would be my husband,
just this one.

Speaker 1 (27:25):
As a husband. That's how it should be. We sture
should be just I would do it first. Just these
just these sho wallpaper. Seriously, So that didn't bother me, Yeah,
bother me, bug me a little bit. Anyway. She's staring
longingly at the solo picture of the actor who played
her husband. How and this is again reminding myself that

(27:47):
this was written by the same guy who did Johnny Tsunami.
I mean, geez, can you imagine if Johnny Sunami? The
first thirty nine seconds of Johnny Tsunami, Johnny's entire family
are wiped out.

Speaker 2 (27:57):
No, but talked about why Johnny doesn't have grandma. Yeah,
if we dove in there.

Speaker 1 (28:04):
No, she left. She left the family to surf at
the place. That night, a force enters young Terry's room
and continues to haunt her, this time knocking over her
family picture next to her bed. She again thinks it's
a big deal. She's terrified, but her brother Zach could
care less and blames the wind. This is kind of
almost the opposite of the annoying little sister trope we have,
where she's kind of cool and trying to get people

(28:25):
to listen to her, and everyone kind of doesn't treat
her particularly well, at least at the starts.

Speaker 2 (28:29):
Got zero respected the same guy.

Speaker 1 (28:31):
But I get it, older brother. That's it's it's a
real trope anyway.

Speaker 2 (28:34):
And there's a big gap between them.

Speaker 1 (28:36):
Yes, yeah, totally gap. Yes. Zach also finds his basketball,
which throws him into a strange flashback to his old
school where he is the star player. He's playing and
looking for his dad in the stands. This can't be
a good memory. We just know he is so traumatized
by whatever that night was. He says he won't be
trying out for the team at his new school, even
though he's all American material. The internet installer, which by

(28:59):
the way, was super progressive for nineteen ninety six, internet
was still AOL. I am still AOL. AOLS rid die
for me. I don't want to hear anything bad about it.
You can find me on AOL easily because I'm the
last person on it. But they tell Terry that families
have come and gone from this house because rumor is
the house is haunted, which is finally validating all of

(29:21):
her feelings. We then cut to Zach's new school. Zach
is sitting at a dre He walked first of all,
he walks up to the new school in and I
could be wrong with this. You seemed more into high
school than I was. But it seems like if you're
going to a new high school, maybe you don't wear
the letterman jacket from your.

Speaker 2 (29:41):
Just my number when I have exclamation point after, why
are you wearing your old school letterman jacket? I was
gonna get into it. I will get into it more
if you want to know the amount of irritation I
have with it.

Speaker 1 (29:57):
You just you just don't do that right.

Speaker 2 (29:59):
He wears it every time at the school. Here's my thing.
I have an issue with kids that have even come
in through my song dance program. Cheerleaders, football players, basketball players,
whatever they make varsity. Big part is getting the letterman
jacket with the letter It's huge.

Speaker 1 (30:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (30:19):
The ones that decide to walk away from the program
for whatever reason, totally okay, totally fine, you want to
you know, they have all different reasons. Totally okay. Do
not wear your letterman jacket back at school. You're no
longer on the team.

Speaker 1 (30:35):
I agree, Yeah, Like that is.

Speaker 2 (30:38):
Such a big thing. For me, it's such a huge
accomplishment that you take it away from other people that
are still working hard on that basketball court, still working
hard in the volleyball, football, whatever it is. It's a
little bit of a disrespect. So him walking into a
brand new school with a letter jacket.

Speaker 1 (30:58):
Yeah, you're flying the colors of another like another club,
Like what are you doing?

Speaker 2 (31:02):
Mad? Only that that would be one thing if he
was cocky and was like, yeah, I'm about to make.

Speaker 1 (31:06):
Your team right But he's not.

Speaker 2 (31:08):
But no, you're going I have no interest in being
a part of this athletic sport jacket brow very hard time.

Speaker 1 (31:19):
I agree, I agree, And it's so stupid.

Speaker 2 (31:23):
And I bet your listeners rolling their eyes. But it
is so weird. Why would you do that?

Speaker 1 (31:31):
I thought the same thing. You're at a new school the.

Speaker 2 (31:33):
Old letterman jacket at home, don't. I don't care if
you want to do basketball or not. That has got
to go.

Speaker 1 (31:42):
Earn your new one. Earn your new one if you
want to. If you don't walk away.

Speaker 2 (31:45):
No big deal.

Speaker 1 (31:53):
They then cut to a here's the thing. He walks
into school, and then they cut to a drama class
where some students are forming their own modern day take
on Romeo and Juliet, and a bully who's a basketball
player at the school knocks over his books. The teacher
we also find out as a basketball coach, who then says, hey,
are you going to join the team? And I for
a second wondered, was there a time jump that I

(32:16):
didn't know about? Has he now been at the school
for a while, How.

Speaker 2 (32:19):
Does anyone know that he's this like all star basketball
play other than the fact that he's maybe wearing the jacket.

Speaker 1 (32:26):
Maybe that's how we're supposed to know that he was
because I thought the same thing. It seemed like there
was some sort of a time jump. Did you ever
have any coaches that were also teachers? Because I did?

Speaker 2 (32:37):
Yes, Oh yes, My the coach that was my advisor
in high school, she still is now advising at the
school that I work at. She's the head of the
language arts department.

Speaker 1 (32:47):
Yeah, that's how I was. My My english teacher was
also my football big on count Yeah we had.

Speaker 2 (32:51):
A yeah big on campus.

Speaker 1 (32:53):
Yeah, yeah, we had that same thing. But now we
find ourselves after the weird time jump that turned out
to not be a time jump, and he was the
coach I'm not going to try out for the team coach.
By the way, I'm new here and my name Zach,
which seemed like how it should have gone.

Speaker 2 (33:07):
And I hate basketball and I.

Speaker 1 (33:08):
Can't stand basketball. We now, So after that, we find
ourselves at the local TV channel where Shelley Long will
be working as a newscaster.

Speaker 2 (33:17):
Confused.

Speaker 1 (33:18):
I was confused too, but they never really got into
what she's doing, so it was like, oh, okay, apparently
she's a newscaster, which we did.

Speaker 2 (33:25):
It was a while before she actually started getting onto
I'm like, why are they at a news station.

Speaker 1 (33:31):
Show a bunch like a round table of people talking,
because this is where we meet our villain. Yes, but
I didn't know if she was working for the company,
and they they really It was a strange way to introduce.

Speaker 2 (33:42):
The first the first of what is this and why it.

Speaker 1 (33:47):
Was they're filming a segment with the local real estate
developer who is building a new community that will be
displacing many families. Even though he has an answer for everything,
he does seem like he's the smarmy villain. And thus
we have met on the other side of town, Terry
and Zach, which, if you say enough times together sounds
like an ice cream brand are fishing, and Terry can't

(34:08):
shake the feeling that the town is really weird. Zach, again,
ignoring her, pulls up a thing bracelet. I was gonna
say charm bracelet.

Speaker 4 (34:16):
Bracelet, but from the river it is again he gets
his line snagged and boom, there is a thing bracelet
and we know from earlier it is Susie Cues's thing
bracelet that her date got her.

Speaker 1 (34:28):
What are the chances? Zach's mom then meets the drama
teacher slash basketball coach while at the station.

Speaker 2 (34:35):
Also at the station for that reason, why cutting right
from the school.

Speaker 1 (34:39):
He must have finished the class, like and don't forget
your Romeo and Juliet things. I gotta go to the
station and ran to the station.

Speaker 2 (34:44):
The news clearly got the weather.

Speaker 1 (34:47):
Yeah, the the The pacing and timing of the first
act of this film was a little jumpy. Yeah, let's
let's put it that way. But she's the one, Chilly
Long is the one who kind of says to the teacher,
this is why Zach doesn't want it to be on
your team. Is because, much like everybody in this film,

(35:08):
he was killed in a car accident. His father can't say,
so gosh he was. We also find out that he
was on the way to Zach's basketball championship game, and
the moral of the movie is clearly don't dry. But
this is why he doesn't want to play basketball. It's
just too painful. He even thinks it's his fault because
he was the one who told his dad to rush

(35:28):
out to the game. He breaks down explaining this at
the dinner table and runs out, leaving a sister to
say to their mom, well that went well. I was
going to ask if she qualifies as the dcome little sister,
the bad one, but I don't think she does. I
think they've made her a little cooler and far more
important to the story than a lot of the running in,
making stupid jokes then leaving little sisters. They actually gave
her a character which was yes, nice she was.

Speaker 2 (35:51):
Yeah, so she was some some substance. This one happened.

Speaker 1 (35:54):
Then, like has happened to all of us at one
point in our lives. Zach, here's a girl playing hopscotch downstairs,
and he runs down to meet her. It's SUSI cute.
I'm not going to ask if girl because I know,
they're trying to make it be like the fifties. I
get that, But in high school, were people still hopscotches?

Speaker 2 (36:15):
Like again, I And honestly, I don't want you to
get mad at me, but sometimes you think that I'm
going to understand what happened back in the eighties as
a normal thing.

Speaker 1 (36:27):
You said back in the eighties, like it was the
way well down back at the eighties.

Speaker 2 (36:31):
While ago we're talking forty years ago.

Speaker 1 (36:33):
Yesterday, we're talking forty years ago.

Speaker 2 (36:37):
Things that you're like, oh yeah, And I'm going, was
that normal?

Speaker 5 (36:40):
Did people ride around on their bikes with shooting?

Speaker 1 (36:47):
We're back to the leftovers and the newspaper cannon.

Speaker 2 (36:51):
So I look back at this going, I guess in
the fifties high schoolers were playing.

Speaker 1 (36:56):
Hop No, high schoolers did not hopscotch.

Speaker 2 (36:59):
Row does doesn't even want to play hopscotch. She gets
over it in five minutes, so the time it takes
me to write out the chalk. Yeah, it's more than
what she'll play on it.

Speaker 1 (37:09):
I would say they should have done something else. But yeah,
she's hopscotching, But what what would she be doing if
she was doing something from the fifties and in high school. No,
it's like, I don't know, dancing to a do wop
song or.

Speaker 2 (37:24):
Oh you want to hear another one of those doops songs?

Speaker 1 (37:27):
I don't know, checking her makeup in the I don't
know what girls in high school do.

Speaker 2 (37:31):
That's what I'm saying. I feel like that's what they
could they have done. What could they have done to
get his attention?

Speaker 1 (37:37):
At least it was in the eighteen fifties. They didn't
have her like pushing a hoof down the street or
whatever the hell those people did with this with the stick. Yes,
they're doing that kind of stuff, but.

Speaker 2 (37:46):
All right, moving on.

Speaker 1 (37:47):
She runs down and she cannot believe that he can
see her and get spooked, eventually running away and saying
jeepers a whole bunch. The next day, Zach is once
again bullied by the kid from drama class, who we
find out is the real estate agent, mean smarmy guy
Developers son. He says it's his basketball team. Don't even
think about taking his spot. Zach explains that's not a problem,

(38:08):
He's not joining. He even goes so far as to
stand on the table and yell out to the brand
new school no one in his letterman jacket from another school.
No matter what you heard about me, I won't be
playing basketball. So if we meet, let's talk about something else,
which is the equivalent of just spitting on everyone. You
just moved into the new school for good luck making friends, weirdo, except.

Speaker 2 (38:31):
For one one does one guy done him is interested
in what he's got to offer.

Speaker 1 (38:37):
Zach asks about Susieq, because hey, you know, girls are
obviously he's the new kid in school, so girls are
apparently interested. So he asks his new friend about Susieq
and is overheard by a creepy janitor who clues him
in about how amazing a girl Susie was. But there's
there's only been once sus Q Susq dad in nineteen fifties.

Speaker 2 (38:58):
And he's huge on my Sabrina seas what is happening.

Speaker 1 (39:03):
With the strange strange janitor guy.

Speaker 2 (39:05):
We're just weird, weird, weird.

Speaker 1 (39:08):
It would have been better how had he found it,
had found the shrine tombs, because again, that's.

Speaker 2 (39:13):
Why it was that necessary.

Speaker 1 (39:14):
We had that in our high school. There was there
was a couple people that passed away in car accidents
or something like that, and you'd always walk by and
you knew the faces, if not the names or vice versa.

Speaker 2 (39:24):
But that's not what it was. It wasn't even it
wasn't even something like that, like a memorial situation. She
just happens to be in the which everyone knows. At
most schools they do have areas where they like florify
championships and stuff like that. Fine, how I could fix
that without the janitor. The weird janitor which creaked me

(39:45):
out is if someone throws something towards it, catches their
eye and goes, oh wait, wait is that the same person?

Speaker 1 (39:52):
Great idea, that's her. Cue boom, that's her, very very simple,
you're right, great way to do it. After not needed, yes,
Zach decides to unwind as most kids do, by playing
rap music. I'm putting that in quotes in his bedroom
because it's truly some of the strangest rap music ever.
Suki did this music as the song sounds just like noises.

(40:16):
It's really weird. Yeah, but lo and behold Susie appears again.
Zach is freaked, mostly because he's only in his boxers.
Again not very Disney asked. He's sitting there in his
underwear and a guy pops in. Although we did see
was it cow Bells where we saw the guy with
his shirt off, where you were like, why does that
guy get to take his shirt off? And I'm in

(40:36):
fourteen layers sweating while trying to do the area. I
fought a.

Speaker 2 (40:40):
Little bit more to show by the way, I mean,
his physique. This guy, I can't believe he allowed that
to happen. I thought, especially when he had a jersey on,
he had a T shirt, he did he under the jersey? Yeah,
now he's going in just boxers.

Speaker 1 (41:01):
By the way, pants, T shirt, jersey, jacket. That's how
I swim in shower. So yeah, that's that's totally different.
But yes, I hey, you're the one who said that
it was.

Speaker 2 (41:13):
I mean, why That's what I'm saying. Why why was
that needed? I think because they didn't think it was
needed in cow Bells either.

Speaker 1 (41:19):
By the way, No, but I think I think they
wanted to show that he was embarrassed that he was
caught half naked and now there's a girl in his room.
Then his sister comes in and he's getting caught exactly.
His sister comes in to see what all the fuss
is about. She doesn't see Susie, making Zach look even crazier.
Now he's just naked and crazy and the same. Then
his mom comes in, who just.

Speaker 2 (41:40):
Got breake crazy?

Speaker 1 (41:42):
Which is the new instead of naked and afraid? Why
can't they get to be afraid on the island. I
can't be that scared while wearing pants. Please start with
somebody once alone, Susie explains finally that she is dead,
but they can talk about it tomorrow. How you don't
then say weight you're a ghost? I saw your picture there?
How did you die? What the hell is going on?

(42:04):
He instead goes, great, see you tomorrow, and he rolls
over and goes to sleep, which they do. She then
he gets to school the next day, she rushes to
him at school. Now she's at school, no other students
can see her, but she notices that Zach is checking
out another girl's turres and gave her an idea. So
right there, she rips apart the pink winter formal dress

(42:27):
that she was wearing to modernize her outfit, which basically
just leaves her in a corset and a short little skirt.
She knows this is going to get his attention, and
it does at this point, which which of the Disney
scenes has the non Disney scenes has shocked you the most.
I'm curious.

Speaker 2 (42:44):
This was one of the one. The boxer situation was
but you understood he was nervous, you know, right, you're right,
he's in his bedroom. You know, I've yet to get
to that. Ledger's totally down with being in his diaper
around me, big girl.

Speaker 1 (43:00):
Okay, yeah, that's well. Of course your mom is.

Speaker 2 (43:02):
Totally down with that.

Speaker 1 (43:03):
Of course.

Speaker 2 (43:04):
But this scene, because it was in public and she's stripping,
and of course I know no one can see her
rips off her clothes, that was I could going, what
how far are we we? She's going to keep going,
it's still going. Okay, Disney Channel, Okay, she's in a
strapless of course set. Yeah, she looks a little bit

(43:27):
like an advertisement for Frederick's of Hollywood. Okay, I don't
know what's happening.

Speaker 1 (43:31):
She did a little you know what it almost looked
like to me was one of the original like fifties
or sixties playboy bunnies. Yes, that's kind of what they
were going for. Which again, way, she looked adorable. She
was cute, got amy Joe Johnson. I don't even want
to get into the crush I had on Amy Joeb.
Oh my gosh, she is.

Speaker 2 (43:48):
I can't even imagine.

Speaker 1 (43:49):
I don't. I don't, especially in this day and age,
I don't talk about how women look anymore. But she
was so cute, so adorable.

Speaker 2 (43:56):
But still she's seeing the envelope beyond.

Speaker 1 (44:00):
And yeah, you would think, especially for whatever Forney, Disney Germany,
Disney Germany. I remember, you know, I have lots of
family in Germany. In the time I would spend over there,
there'd be just ads on TV with naked women, and
it was no, oh, wow, that's just for a fate. Yeah,
very strong.

Speaker 2 (44:16):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (44:17):
See, Okay, Well we're a Putan country. So they talk
about it, and she eventually says, as she's intercourse it,
I need your help. Since he can see her, it
has to be fate. He needs help to find out
why her parents lost their home. Zach just wants to
get the science class, but he's called up front to
finish a compound in class, and when he doesn't know

(44:38):
the answer, Susie sneaks in the answer, but she's wrong,
and he creates a science experiment that clears the entire class.
We just came from a scene where the janitor said
she was the brightest student they'd had in a while,
and oh my god, she was amazing. I was like, Oh,
this is how they're gonna find this symbiotic relationship. She's
gonna start slipping them the answers to stuff and he's

(44:58):
going to become this great student.

Speaker 2 (44:59):
And now the only reason why a ghost would be
a great thing in your whole situation of living. No,
this is not her. Why is she not smart?

Speaker 1 (45:09):
I always like to say I don't believe in ghosts,
but I'm afraid of it. And it's true. Yeah she
should have been and that would have been perfect to
give him all the stuff, but no wrong answer clears
the room. Now Zack's had enough. She comes into the
boys bathroom brings.

Speaker 2 (45:23):
The question what is she here for? What's the point
of this? What is she doing?

Speaker 1 (45:27):
We're not sure what's happening. But Zach is like, Okay,
the bathroom is a bridge too far, and he essentially
screams at her, leave me alone, stop bothering, but she won't.
She catches up to him on his walk home, and
for some reason they apologize to each other, which also
didn't make a whole lot of sense. But Zack admits
that if a beautiful girl was chasing around school last year,
he'd be excited, but now there's so much going on

(45:48):
in his life he can't give this attention, especially because
it's probably just a dream. He says he can't help,
and Susie decides to take it one step further. If
he's not gonna help, she's going to force his hand
by kind of ruining his life. So she sneaks into
his mom's car and goes with her to the new
station and sabotages her weather report, making everything go wrong
and even pushing up her skirt with a wind machine.

(46:11):
And so this was a point where walking out of
the bathroom, now I get budget wise why they couldn't
do this obviously very expensive, I get, but I didn't
understand what she could touch, what she couldn't touch, what
she could walk through, what she couldn't walk through. Yet,
does a ghost need to take a car? You know?

(46:35):
Did she need to ride somewhere she's waiting for people
to open doors for And again that's a budgetary thing.
Disney had a two million dollar Canadian budget, which we've
already said is eleven hundred dollars American. You can't have
her walking through doors. So I understand that, but I
thought some of the ghost rules were a little she
could grab this, she couldn't grab that.

Speaker 2 (46:54):
Yeah, they were just inconsistent.

Speaker 1 (46:55):
Yeah, yeah, exactly. Mat.

Speaker 2 (46:57):
I don't care what you decide on. Just make a
decision in yeah, right, whatever.

Speaker 1 (47:01):
It is agreed one percent. So now we also know
that the curse words were removed. I'm gonna ask you this,
what do you think the curse words were? And where
do you think they were? Who do you think said them?

(47:23):
Wouldn't have been hurt, right, because she's from fifty five,
she wouldn't have said any any swears.

Speaker 2 (47:28):
I part of me hopes the little sister had a
couple of them.

Speaker 1 (47:32):
What do you think she said? And I'm gonna need
you to say the words.

Speaker 2 (47:35):
No, I'm not doing well. You know there's a boundary.

Speaker 1 (47:38):
I mean, you just say the word Spriena words. What
kind of sworares do you think they say? Sabrina? Come on, Saberena,
what do you think they say?

Speaker 2 (47:46):
You're gonna just delay this process this long because I'm
not going I.

Speaker 1 (47:50):
Think they say that they don't say the F word.
I don't think they would have a Disney Channel F word.

Speaker 2 (47:56):
Okay, I can see that. She yeah, yeah, maybe no,
not that word for the little sister. She probably did
like a funny word like, you know, like instead f ward,
like briggin. Maybe I got in trouble for saying that
when I was little because I copied my older sister.
Oh h friggin'. Maybe maybe I don't know what's the

(48:19):
S word? Is it?

Speaker 1 (48:20):
What is the S word? What word? What are you
talking about? I don't know what she means.

Speaker 2 (48:23):
I don't I no longer want to play this game.
We still have to get to Jensen's games that I
don't want to play, so we're gonna move.

Speaker 1 (48:30):
My guess is it was? And I think somebody else.
I think Shelley Long might have said it. I don't know,
or maybe the coach.

Speaker 2 (48:37):
Yeah, Or it could have.

Speaker 1 (48:38):
Just been it could have just been both Susie Q
and her boyfriend going on as they went over the
cliff at the beginning, went over the bridge. You just
never know. So there we go. That night, Susie shows
up again at Zach's house. The ruined weather report was
actually a big hit for his mom, but Susie still

(48:59):
need his help. He gives in and goes with her
to her parents' trailer park because her parents were one
of the people that were forcibly moved out. They had
to move away to make way for the new real
estate development, and are so sad about having to leave
the town. They explained they shouldn't have even lost their
house in the first place if only they had their
grandparents papers. The papers were back to the papers. That's

(49:22):
why she needs his help again. She needs to find
those papers. So now she knows her purpose for some reason,
even though he said he would never end up even
watching basketball again, we then cut to him in the
stands of the basketball practice, where apparently everyone in the
school just practices in their regular clothes, which was the
other thing that I noticed. There's no practice gear. It's

(49:44):
just like, all right, here are your clothes. The bully
says yes. The bully and Zach exchange words, leaving Susie
to throw a ball at him. When the bully tries
to retaliate, Zach overcomes his fears, catches the ball, and
drains a three. With everybody watching bamb that night, he

(50:04):
sits down with Susie and has a conversation that I
never thought I would hear ever in a Disney Channel movie,
and frankly, as funny as I'm thinking it is, I'm
glad they had this conversation because I think it's a
real conversation, and I kind of think it's a conversation
that maybe kids have because I remember having these conversations
with my friends. And he says, I mean, it's so

(50:30):
so amazing. He says to her, your debt, what is
it like to die? What are you thinking about? What
did you feel when you died? Because she says, well,
why do you want to know? And he says, because
my dad's dead and I want to know if he's
watching over me. I mean, it's very not Disney Channel
but very real, real kid kind of conversation, and a

(50:55):
I thought, kind of a cool conversation, like wow, I'm
not expecting that, but hey, cool kind of conversation to have.

Speaker 2 (51:01):
But did you not think of me? Oh? This is
another on the opposite end, going oh my, this is
probably speaking more to the moms out there. You mean,
when I'm gone, I'm still gonna be worried.

Speaker 5 (51:20):
And you're talking me busy que I still have to
come back and make sure you guys are all good?

Speaker 1 (51:27):
Are you kidding me?

Speaker 2 (51:28):
When do I get to rest?

Speaker 1 (51:29):
Why do I get arrest? This is another reason not
to have kids talking.

Speaker 2 (51:33):
May was this part of the reason of your decision,
mister Will. It's just now knowing when we're gone, we're
still doing.

Speaker 1 (51:41):
We're still parents.

Speaker 2 (51:42):
But that was the whole conversation that fifteen years.

Speaker 1 (51:45):
Is bs heaven And he asked, guess what, why are
you stuck here? And so those are all conversations that
should have happened the first time when he was in
his underwear, But it was probably too weird having that conversation.

Speaker 2 (52:00):
That would have been a weird conversation in his child.

Speaker 1 (52:02):
But she says that she thinks his dad is watching
over him, and she is a good person, but she
just needs to wrap up a situation with her parents
and then she can go to heaven too. So we
are back again. Very not Disney, but even my favorite
part of the.

Speaker 2 (52:15):
Movie, even heaven being an actual thing in Disney. Yeah,
isn't normal. No, right, No, Now you're choosing religions.

Speaker 1 (52:24):
Yeah, they're picking a side in this movie, which they
normally don't do. Back at the trailer park, Zach talks
to Susie's parents by pretending he's interested in the school's
basketball team, which the dad used to coach. In turn,
he gives Zach his old playbook like he's John Wooden
or you know, Mike Ceseski or somebody. Zach also reveals
to Susie's mom that he bought their house and wants

(52:45):
to know why they had to move out. He didn't obviously,
his mom bought it. But they're living in their house,
and he wants to know why they had to move out.
She says, when her husband quit coaching, the bank called
and said they owed a twenty five thousand dollars balloon payment,
and since Susie's grandpa took care of all the papers,
he had died and they couldn't find anything that disputed that,
and thus they need to find the papers. I still

(53:05):
think that also points to they lost their dad and
their daughter in the same night. Right, That's what the
ambulance was going back like pretty pretty horrible night.

Speaker 2 (53:18):
Okay, the twenty five thousand dollars is what I got
stuck on going. That's basically you're gonna probably roll your
eyes at me, but that's like what a million dollars nowadays.
Twenty five thousand.

Speaker 1 (53:32):
Dollar nineteen fifty five.

Speaker 2 (53:35):
Yeah, that seems so extravagant.

Speaker 1 (53:38):
How I could be wrong, But I think what they
were actually alluding to was it was maybe a couple
of years later, like in the sixties or seventies, that
the balloon payment came up.

Speaker 2 (53:48):
Okay, and they didn't have the payment.

Speaker 1 (53:49):
Because you're right, I think twenty five thousand dollars would
have been several hundred thousand dollars nowadays.

Speaker 2 (53:54):
If not, yes, that I mean, I feel like that's
just so extravagant. But okay, Yeah, anyway, I got caught
up in that. You know, when you look at time,
period's going oh wait, oh my gosh, how much would
that have been? Well would that be? You know?

Speaker 1 (54:07):
So you know, I thought the same thing. I'm like,
was it in fifty five money? That's a lot, because
I think thouses in nineteen fifty five were three dollars.
It was a packetchewing gum. I don't think it was
that little. Yes, they weren't that expensive. No, I think
eight to ten thousand dollars would have bought your house
in nineteen fifty fives. So yeah, wow, I could be wrong,

(54:27):
and I'm going to get emails. But anyway, nearby, we
noticed that the jerk of a bully in a very
cool red jeep saw all this go down, so he
reports it back to his dad, and his dad says
they need to keep Zack out of their business. Meanwhile,
Zach is finally starting to shoot some hoops in his backyard,
again facing that faithful day with his dad, but becoming

(54:47):
so enraged he dunks. Justin was shorter than me, but anyway,
he dunks and breaks his backboard. As the trailer park
is set for demolition, Zach needs to learn more about
the loan, and the only way to do that is
to hack into the bank's computers. His little sister, Terry

(55:08):
is apparently a computer genius, so he spills all the
Susie beans to her, and now she is ready to help.
If only the family believed her like she believes them,
everything would have gotten better. But we now cut to
a montage. They are at the bank working out a
very convoluted plan to a very bad kind of credence
clearwater cover of the song Susieque, and as a team

(55:28):
they divert all the employee's attentions to steal entry codes,
which is also worth noting a massive felony. They also
accidentally hack into an ATM to give an old man
countless dollar bills. This actor had to be somebody's grandpa.
Just come and stand at the ATM. It was kind
of cute to watch. With the codes now in hand, yes,

(55:49):
the broken bank codes of nineteen ninety six O one hand,
they realized that Susie's grandfather actually owned the land that
the bully's dad is trying to demolish. The school, the bank,
the trailer park. It's all owned by Susie's parents. But
the deed reverse possession back to the bank, which is
the main bad guy, in like three days. So they've

(56:10):
just found this out. Now they had fifty years, but
it's worth now down to three days to get this stuff.
They have to do something soon, Okay, they need to
find the original papers that her grandfather was concerned about.
That the whole movie started about with we need to
find these papers. Boom. It turns out that there was
a hidden room, like an entire room that seemed to

(56:32):
be wasn't a small room.

Speaker 2 (56:33):
I thought it was gonna be like the fool under
the floorboard.

Speaker 1 (56:36):
Thank you. They walked this house. He went from this
twenty two hundred square feet to forty two hundred square feet.

Speaker 2 (56:44):
And why isn't this a wine cellar.

Speaker 1 (56:46):
Guys, wine cellar? Why don't we both have bigger rooms.
This is a it's a theater, it's a man's like.

Speaker 2 (56:53):
It only allowed five articles of clothing. Yeah, and you've
got this giant second floor birth.

Speaker 1 (57:00):
Basically, it makes me wonder what Grandpa was doing with
the secret.

Speaker 2 (57:03):
It was probably a wine cellar.

Speaker 1 (57:05):
They just maybe we hope that's what it was. They
find the hidden room. It's filled with white dresses for
some reason. That's why I'm asking what the hell the dad,
the grandfather did. But they also find the deed. They
borrow their mom's car to rush to the bank, but
on the way they're pulled over for speeding by Mad
TV's Will Sasso in one of the weirder Disney cameos

(57:25):
we have ever seen. He's very funny, but it is
so strange. When the cop asks Zach to leave the car,
Terry asked him if he has probable cause, and we
have to play the clip because here is the policeman's answer.

Speaker 2 (57:38):
I have to take a look at carn do you
have probable cause?

Speaker 3 (57:43):
Well, I have a fully loaded three fifty seven magnum
that could probably cause a lot of damage.

Speaker 1 (57:48):
I fired at in person. So his first reaction is
to tell the two children essentially, I could kill you.
Probably call a lot.

Speaker 2 (58:02):
Of damn accent just everything. Why this crazy accent, I.

Speaker 1 (58:06):
Don't know, but will Sasso is so funny, and almost
everything he was doing was making me laugh because it
was just so outlanding, just like.

Speaker 2 (58:15):
His walk, his everything, everything we.

Speaker 1 (58:17):
Did was just so funny. I hope we get a
chance to talk to him someday about this. I really do.
He not only impedes the kids, but he takes the deed.
Oh no, theed we just found in the small, tiny,
nine thousand square foot secret compartment, and we find out
that he's not just a cop, but he's working for
the bad real estate developer. The cop confiscates the paperwork

(58:39):
for him and takes Zach and Terry to jail. He
literally locks these two children up, leaving susie Q behind
in the desert because remember he can't see her. But
why didn't she just jump on the car. She wouldn't
die again?

Speaker 2 (58:50):
And does it needs somebody to honestly open a door
for her. She could just jump right in.

Speaker 1 (58:55):
Right and she didn't have to walk anyway. The kids
were supposed to return their mom's car by four so
she could be on the news, but this is ruining everything.
The developer gets a call from the cop and instructs
him to hold them until midnight to clear the way
for his plans. Meanwhile, Susie is walking to the jail,
which is miles away. Again, we don't know why she's walking.

(59:16):
He gets a right from the basketball coach who stopped
by to try and talk Zack into playing on the
basketball team. They won't let Zack just mourn his dad's
death and not play basketball. They are really pushing to
get them anyway. Eventually, Susie does make it to the
jail and they can coct a plan explaining that Terry
has superpowers, which the cop originally hears as special classes,

(59:37):
another joke he'd never expected the Disney channel, But by
using Susie's invisibility, Terry pretends to have seizures while Susie
move things around his office, even the guns, pointing one
right at the CoP's face. Susie takes the keys and
frees the siblings adding more and more crimes to their
rap sheet. Susie actually then shoots the shotgun misfires it.

(59:58):
They steal the cop car and speed to the news station.
So we've got bank fraud, wire fraud, breaking into a bank,
giving away the bank's money, taking a cop HOSTI I would.

Speaker 2 (01:00:09):
Not ever being able to actually explain it, because now
you're going to say a ghost, a ghost, A ghost,
you sir, it's a ghost.

Speaker 1 (01:00:17):
I apologize it was a ghost. They are then in
a high speed car chase in one of the cop cars,
speeding to the station. When they get there, their mom
is about to sign off, so they have concocted yet

(01:00:39):
another plan where they are just going to jump on
the air give their mom this thing saying you have
to read this, with no real kind of backing to
it whatsoever. They handle all the information about the deed
in the bank and to contact the least. She reads
it blindly because her boss says it'll put it out.
He takes the note and goes read it. He says,
can you prove it? And the kid goes one hundred percent,

(01:00:59):
that's all the the verification this guy needs. They read
it on the air and everyone is busted because it's
been on TV. Apparently that makes it real. Susie's parents
saw this, and their life is going to be spared.
This is great. Now. Just when Zach thinks that's the
end of our story, Susie says, no, there's one more
thing left, Zack. It's got to get Zack to the

(01:01:20):
basketball game. He somehow arrives in a jersey. I don't
know how he got a jersey for the team or
the game, and enters the game with just minutes left.
He's never practiced with them, hasn't really practiced. He doesn't
know what position he's going. He's like, well, you've pointed

(01:01:42):
that out already once or twice there, Thank you so much, Sabrina.

Speaker 2 (01:01:45):
Excuse me, Will, That's not what I was saying, but
I'm saying conditionally.

Speaker 1 (01:01:50):
He just he does. He shows up in a jersey,
and he runs over to can I go in? And
the coach essentially goes, yeah, sure, get in the game.
Take out all the guys that have been here all
season and actual practicing.

Speaker 2 (01:02:03):
No one cares about my favorite part.

Speaker 1 (01:02:06):
He just runs into the game. Points of the guy
goes you you're out, and the guy runs out of
the game and that's it. So he just added a
player mid game who was not on the team or
on the roster.

Speaker 2 (01:02:19):
Steph Curry.

Speaker 1 (01:02:20):
He does, he turns into Steph Curry. They're down twenty points.

Speaker 2 (01:02:23):
Michael Jordan just entered the gas.

Speaker 1 (01:02:25):
Exactly, and ladies and gentlemen Lebron James. So with under
only ten minutes left, he not only comes back, he's dunking.
It's like everybody else in the basketball court has forgotten
how to play basketball. At one point, he goes behind
the back and the guy his defenders just standing there,
and then all the other the other defenders just move
out of his way. Yes, they've all completely forgotten how

(01:02:46):
to play basketball, but who hasn't forgotten was the obvious
double who was playing for him, because every time he's
doing these amazing moves, they're not showing his face. And
that's it. Boom, with two seconds left, they're down. Okay,
they're down two points. Two seconds left. Let me set
the stage for you. Down two points, Zach wants to
shoot a three. He notices Susie's dad's playbook on the

(01:03:09):
bench left there by Susie, and he's going to use
one of his dad's amazing plays. So he opens it
up and he shows the coach, and the coach says,
you think you can pull it off? And Zach says,
let's find out. They inbound the ball, Zach gets the
ball back and shoots a three pointer. That was the

(01:03:29):
amazing play. The trick play they did was Zach getting
the ball and shooting it.

Speaker 2 (01:03:37):
Yeah. I mean, I would like to think if they
were a team, they'd be able to like quickly show
the other players that it would make sense.

Speaker 1 (01:03:48):
Doing something that resemble the play of any kind.

Speaker 2 (01:03:52):
But they're not a team because because Zach.

Speaker 1 (01:03:55):
Has been on the team for ten minutes, because Zach.

Speaker 2 (01:03:57):
Has a different letterman jacket, he does so.

Speaker 1 (01:04:01):
But Zach gets the ball, he pulls up three point
line and shoots. What kind of magic play is that? That?
That was just the plaget, It's not. He's shy, got
the ball and he shot it. Yeah, either way, woo.
They win. At the last second, the crowd goes wild.
Zach celebrates with his mom and his sister and Susie's
parents giving you know, he gives Susie's dad the game ball,
and we see Susie leaving the gym. It's a very

(01:04:23):
nice moment. Eventually, Zach catches up with Susie because he says,
I couldn't find you anywhere. So again, where do you go?
Death bridge? So he's sulky, he sees her there, she's
on the bridge. She says it's time for her to leave.
She did what she had to do. He says, I understand,
you have to move on, and then they kiss, our
first Disney Channel kiss in a while, and certainly our
first one with a ghost in a minute, so we

(01:04:45):
haven't seen that. She asks, please don't forget her. He
tries to give her back the thing bracelet, but she
wants him to keep it for good luck, probably because
she's like, I don't want to you can, you know what,
keep it for good luck?

Speaker 2 (01:04:56):
A real gift to begin with, I don't want my.

Speaker 1 (01:04:59):
Thing bracelet the chance of me ever seeing that guy again.

Speaker 2 (01:05:02):
But that goes against the same thing as we don't
know what these rules are. As her ghost now she can.

Speaker 1 (01:05:09):
Kiss, not not only can she kiss, but is the
so the bracelet's a real thing.

Speaker 2 (01:05:14):
She can hold the bracelet. There's a lot of things.

Speaker 1 (01:05:16):
Well he found it, he yeah, he found at the
bottom of the river where the car crash, so the
car must have been down there, and he hooked.

Speaker 2 (01:05:21):
On yes, yes, yes, yes.

Speaker 1 (01:05:23):
But she can kiss, I guess apparently, which leads me
to believe there's a bunch of other stuff she could
have done the entire time, and he's like, what was
in my underwear?

Speaker 2 (01:05:32):
And knowing that this is not a Disney channelman.

Speaker 1 (01:05:34):
Exactly, I want to know what they were cutting. She
did rip off half her clothes anyway, there's a lightning strike.
The Chevy reappears to pick her up, driven by her
greaser boyfriend, and Zach yells out, I love you right
in front of the boyfriend who just drove to pick
her up.

Speaker 2 (01:05:51):
We have hit so many of mine but like what you.

Speaker 1 (01:05:55):
S Yes, it shouldn't, dude, dude, it is kay, I
don't even know that. Yeah, trying to get into heaven
here bro forever. Yeah yeah, okay, I get Yeah, this
is it. I'm on the longest I'm on the longest
first date ever at this point. Please so she you

(01:06:16):
feel like so right when they leave, it should have
then been him going I love you Susie Q with
her driving away.

Speaker 2 (01:06:22):
That's not maybe screaming.

Speaker 1 (01:06:24):
Because then she's like she literally he goes, I love you, SUSIEQ,
and she's like, ah bye and gets in the car.
She doesn't say it back because she can't because her
boyfriend's right there, because that sense exactly. So the car
drives off in a cloud of smoke, revealing that her
grandfather is also in the back of the car, and
they are off to Heaven. It is now the next

(01:06:45):
day at school and the students are congratulating Zach on
his big shot. He gets to his locker when he
hears a familiar voice. He knows it from somewhere. He
walks up. We see the back of a girl and
she's talking about her first day and she's made a
complete fool of herself. She even says jeepers. And she
turns around and it's Amy. Joe Johnson playing Maggie introduced
herself as Maggie, and Zach looks at the camera and

(01:07:07):
we freeze right there. End of movie. What the was
she reincarnated? Yeah? That's I mean it was. Is it
supposed to be the same girl. It's not. It's just
supposed to be a twin.

Speaker 5 (01:07:25):
I feel like that happens a lot in movies, though
with the fictional ghostly.

Speaker 1 (01:07:33):
You're thinking of Brendan fra You're thinking of Brendan Fraser
and in What's what's it called? Where he's doing all
the different he gets he's playing with devil, and she
what's her name plays the devil and then she comes
in she essentially plays her own twin. Yes, yes, whatever
movie that is.

Speaker 2 (01:07:50):
I thought the same thing, yes, like what but of
its time? That was a I think, kind of a
you know trope that we talked.

Speaker 1 (01:07:58):
Okay, but she's not supposed to be She's not supposed
to be reincarnated, Susie. She's just supposed to be a girl,
a girl.

Speaker 2 (01:08:05):
Who looks just like it looks and with a corset,
right right?

Speaker 1 (01:08:11):
Is that what I mean? It's again because the freeze
frames and we won't know until susi Q two. This
time's personal what's what's going on?

Speaker 2 (01:08:18):
Which weirdly never got made, so.

Speaker 1 (01:08:20):
But so we don't know, yeah what it is, but hey,
there's your movie. It's time for real reviews, Sabrina, You've
got the five star this week. I do, and it's
pretty great. I also love the name of the person

(01:08:43):
who wrote the five star reviews.

Speaker 2 (01:08:46):
Like, you know, I can't say anything because I still
have like my email account from college, so.

Speaker 1 (01:08:54):
Sure it's pretty much because mine is.

Speaker 2 (01:08:57):
It is not. I did switch it over to real people.

Speaker 1 (01:09:01):
Oh see, this is That's why. That's why I'm the best.
That's why I'll always be the best. AOL you've got male.

Speaker 2 (01:09:08):
Yeah, yeah, you're just loyal, like loyal loyal. This guy's
is a five star review from tweety bird First Baby.

Speaker 1 (01:09:20):
Oh that's right, I had a tweety bird one Saint Baby.
But you're absolutely right. Okay, it is First Baby. No,
you're one hundred percent correct. I read it wrong.

Speaker 2 (01:09:28):
One Saint Baby is even better, though I'm not sure
which way they're going for either way.

Speaker 1 (01:09:34):
Oh, you're right.

Speaker 2 (01:09:34):
It's amazing. This is the best movie I've ever seen.
When I first saw it on the Disney Channel, I
was like, I would love to see this movie over
and over again. I'd love to watch it every day,
and I recommend it to anyone. If I could watch
two movies every day, it be this one and Beloved.

(01:09:57):
Those are my two favorite movies. I really love them.

Speaker 1 (01:10:01):
A lot of love, five stars, A lot of love.

Speaker 2 (01:10:03):
Could not watch this movie over and over again.

Speaker 1 (01:10:06):
I don't think I could watch this movie over and
over again.

Speaker 2 (01:10:08):
Didn't hate it, but could not watch this on a
repeat as I watch Friends every yek.

Speaker 1 (01:10:14):
That's exactly how I would say. I did not hate
it and will.

Speaker 2 (01:10:16):
Watch the Olympic Gymnastics finals for the next seven to
eight months.

Speaker 1 (01:10:22):
You're gonna see me on balance bead because I can
do a lot of it.

Speaker 2 (01:10:24):
I know.

Speaker 1 (01:10:25):
I got the one star review and it is by
Red Leader fifty seven six oh seven. Do you know
what Red Leaders from, Sabrina?

Speaker 2 (01:10:34):
Yes, I'm pretty sure it's from Power Ranger.

Speaker 1 (01:10:36):
Oh oh, my heart, Star Wars.

Speaker 2 (01:10:40):
I'm going to continue to disappoint you.

Speaker 1 (01:10:42):
Star Wars Red Leader red five standing five as a
Red five standing by Okay, so here's from a Red
Leader five seven six oh seven the one star review.
It's a great review. It is too bad that the
company that purchased Hostess didn't leave Susie Ces alone. They
are nothing like the quality of the previous Susie cues
and cannot match Hostess cupcakes either. If they aren't going
to be as good, why bother at all? How sad

(01:11:04):
for previous Hostess lovers. Unfortunately I ordered some with no
expiration date. I took a chance and lost. They were
well past the expiration date, which made them not edible.
I take some blame for not asking before ordering. So
this guy obviously thought they were susie Ces and not
the movie Susieq. But it was such a good review
that we had to go with it.

Speaker 2 (01:11:26):
The poor hostess man, that's a bad What is this
susie q dessert item? Have you ever seen them? Do
you know what they are?

Speaker 1 (01:11:36):
What? Of course, do you not know what a susieq is?

Speaker 2 (01:11:41):
I might if you explain it. It's like a don hole.

Speaker 1 (01:11:45):
No, it's not a donor hole.

Speaker 2 (01:11:46):
It's like a chuck.

Speaker 1 (01:11:47):
It's Oh my god, I gotta google it and show
you a picture now, because it's susie c.

Speaker 2 (01:11:53):
Okay, I know what a hostess cupcake is.

Speaker 1 (01:11:58):
This is a susie cue.

Speaker 2 (01:12:00):
They're like chocolate losing respect for me as No.

Speaker 1 (01:12:04):
It's like chocolate square happiness. That's a susie q.

Speaker 2 (01:12:09):
Oh okay, Yeah, it's got the like white fluffy stuff
in it.

Speaker 1 (01:12:13):
Right. Not to be not to be confused with the
devil dog, which is a very East Coast thing. This
is it. This is a susi Q. It's cake ear,
it's it's it's quite love you.

Speaker 2 (01:12:23):
I mean, even though you're an East Coast thing, which
is better.

Speaker 1 (01:12:27):
I'm a devil dog man, But again I haven't eaten
a devil dog or a Susi Q in years, so
they could both be. I'm sure it'd be one of
those things I'd eat from childhood and be like, oh God,
this is just all sugar, and my teeth would fall.
As everybody out there knows now, all of our dear listeners.
We love to do different features that have been set
up for us, and we've got a new one today
to celebrate the maniac music of SUSIEQ and the work

(01:12:48):
of legendary composer Suki Levy. We're going to be given
a line from a famous nineteen fifties song, the timeframe
when the movie was set, and we have to finish
the lyric. If we get three out of five, we win.
So here is number one. Why do fools fall in love?
Why do birds sing so gay? And lovers await the

(01:13:12):
break of death?

Speaker 2 (01:13:14):
So why do fools fall in love? Is the last
I think they repeat?

Speaker 1 (01:13:16):
They repeat, why do you fools fall in love? Don't they?

Speaker 2 (01:13:19):
Yes? Yes, it's why do they fall in love? But close.

Speaker 1 (01:13:22):
Yes, okay, all right, it's not here to judge us today.

Speaker 2 (01:13:27):
I'm gonna take that win real quick.

Speaker 1 (01:13:30):
Okay, good Sabrina has taken one. All right, here we go,
It's fine. Why do You Fools fall in Love was
by FRANKI Lymon and the Teenagers.

Speaker 2 (01:13:39):
Yes, good, Oh that movie was so good.

Speaker 1 (01:13:43):
The second one is Your Precious Love, Well before the
Light Hold me again with all of your might. I
don't know this song at all, do you?

Speaker 2 (01:13:51):
This is like, is mikaylam on this line? Because when
Ryan says this on Kiss, if he actually gets to
hear the words.

Speaker 1 (01:14:02):
I don't think we actually can afford the music to
play the stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:14:06):
Why are we not on the Kiss at m budget?

Speaker 4 (01:14:10):
Because I probably know the tar Can you at least
tell you even hear the melody?

Speaker 1 (01:14:15):
Producer, Tara? Can you at least tell us who did
this song? Can you give us the name of the
band that did the song?

Speaker 2 (01:14:21):
The Five Satins?

Speaker 1 (01:14:23):
Oh geez, that's not gonna help us. The first three
Satins were great.

Speaker 2 (01:14:27):
Yeah, the fourth and the five are kind of a bitch.
The rest of the lyrics are in the still of
the night in the.

Speaker 1 (01:14:36):
Yeah before the told me? Of course, this is why
we can't hear it, so we don't know. It's instilled
the night. Of course. How about this one. Ain't nothing
in the world like a big eyed girl to make
me act so funny, make me spend my money, make
me feel real loose, like a long neck goose like
old baby. You got it, I know it.

Speaker 2 (01:14:55):
No, I don't.

Speaker 1 (01:14:57):
Oh baby, that's what I like. People, am I right,
you're right, thank you?

Speaker 2 (01:15:04):
Okay, we got to hear these though a little bit.

Speaker 1 (01:15:06):
This is uh, this is that was by the guy
who died in the plane crash with Buddy Holly and
with Big Bopper.

Speaker 2 (01:15:13):
Yes, that's correct, All right, all.

Speaker 1 (01:15:15):
Right, here we go. Here's the next one. We're going
to rock rock rock until broad daylight. We're going to
rock rock, rock around the clock tonight. Yeah, when the
chimes ring five, six and seven.

Speaker 2 (01:15:24):
We're going to rock rock rock. Doesn't go back into
that next thing, isn't it.

Speaker 1 (01:15:27):
We're going to rock rock rock on the way to heaven,
all the way to heaven.

Speaker 2 (01:15:31):
Oh like that. We'll be right in seventh heaven. We're
going to rock around the clock tonight. Damn it, yeah,
damn it.

Speaker 1 (01:15:40):
And I forget who did rock around the clock.

Speaker 2 (01:15:42):
Is that Chuck Berry, it's Bill Haley and the comments
all right, well, at least Jens is not here to
actually keep real score.

Speaker 1 (01:15:48):
This is These are hard because we're not from the fifties.
And finally, our last one, mercifully, our last one. Tooty fruity,
Oh rudy, tooty fruity, Oh rudy, tooty fruity, Oh rudy.
What do he got something rudy?

Speaker 2 (01:16:11):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's that's right. And that was he
wore the capes right. No, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:16:20):
Actually you don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:16:21):
If he I doesn't know, No one else knows the
answers that you make me, so it is.

Speaker 1 (01:16:26):
I don't know. If you want to, I want you to.
I want you to come up with it. It's little Richard.

Speaker 2 (01:16:33):
Yeah, a little Richard somebody.

Speaker 1 (01:16:37):
Little Richard was like me. He wore capes to the
did he did?

Speaker 2 (01:16:41):
He did? Thank you here.

Speaker 1 (01:16:44):
And one of the coolest things Big care I ever
got to do. I was on the Howard Mandel show
back in the day when Howie had a talk show,
and I just got to sit next to Little Richard
on his piano as Little Richard played me songs and
we kept having to record it, so he just kept
playing music next to me for like a half hour.
Was really one of the cool one of the cooler
days of my life. It really was amazing, so cool.

(01:17:05):
Can we do Sabrina ses please?

Speaker 2 (01:17:11):
The only Sabrina sees that we didn't get well was
the grandpa in the beginning, when he was supposed to
be in bed and was just fully dressed. I could
write you, if he's sick, you would assume he'd be
in like a sleep outfit, you know of some.

Speaker 1 (01:17:31):
So wasn't he in kind of a sleep outfit? In
the car at the end going to Heaven? I think
he was in like a sleep outfit?

Speaker 2 (01:17:38):
Then yeah, But in the beginning he had full on suspenders,
like he had a whole outfit. Where was he?

Speaker 1 (01:17:43):
I mean, like, why not have him in the same
Why not dressed like you're going to heaven? What? What?
I don't get it?

Speaker 2 (01:17:47):
It was so weird to me, And then I almost went,
oh gosh, they did it again. After the the frame
gets knocked off the end table and she runs in
to get her brother and he's sleeping. Zach had full
clothes on too, but I think he kind of fell asleep,
you know what I mean. It wasn't he wasn't in bed.

Speaker 1 (01:18:04):
Yeah, they made it like his lights were on, and
they did. They made it seem like he fell us.

Speaker 2 (01:18:08):
But at first I was like, oh my gosh, do
people just not wear pajamas in this movie?

Speaker 1 (01:18:12):
Because don't you remember his awesome physique, as you pointed
out several times, was asleep with just the boxers on
the night. He decides not to talk to the ghost
for some reason because you don't. Hey, I know you're
a ghost and I met the first person ever that died.
But I'm gonna go to bed now. We'll talk tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (01:18:28):
Yeah, we'll talk about I'm gonna process this on my
own for a minute.

Speaker 1 (01:18:31):
And weird. I would never sleep again if I talked
to a ghost, never ever, ever.

Speaker 2 (01:18:35):
I can't. It was such a hard time sleeping. If
I ever have like a bad dream, I can not get.

Speaker 1 (01:18:39):
Back in the same way.

Speaker 2 (01:18:39):
So very strange.

Speaker 1 (01:18:41):
So now, of course, mercifully we are done showing our
ignorance when it comes to fifties music. I mean, he's
I got Wap out of Blue, Mamma wapamb But you could.

Speaker 2 (01:18:48):
Have probably finished so many of them if I if.

Speaker 1 (01:18:51):
You'd heard it, I had I get you, I got you. Okay, Hey,
I don't know if this has ever been done, but
I'm now patenting a game where you listen to the
lyrics of one song with the melody of another song
and you have to guess them both. That would be interesting. Okay,
let's rate the movie as we always do. One out
of ten our options this week, one out of ten
Disney death scenes, one out of ten, drunk drivings, one

(01:19:13):
out of ten carthfs, high speed chases, bank frauds, firing
a gun in public, dark aiding and a betting, a
person eating and a betting a prisoner, wire tapping charges.
These are all very dark. I would like to add
pink boat. Okay, you know what, let's do pink boas
that's nice, like you do this darkness? Yeah? I like it.

(01:19:39):
Did you go you did? You gave us six point
five to the last movie though, to camp Rock. Yeah,
so then I will start. Okay, this wasn't a great movie.
There's a lot wrong story wise with this movie. That
being said, this was not an official dcom. This is
this was this the bone of a d com. We

(01:20:00):
are we are getting into what a d com is
going to be. So when you have to bridge it
from a after school special to a dcom, there is
a bridge in between, and this, to me would be
one of those movies. This a lot of times felt
little after school specially, but then had very Disney dcom
tropes and months at times. So that being said, I'm

(01:20:24):
gonna give this. I'm gonna give this a five point
five pretty pink pos.

Speaker 2 (01:20:31):
I think we're gonna try to do this like quarter
marks too. I think you're gonna say five mint.

Speaker 1 (01:20:35):
I'm gonna say, I'm gonna say five.

Speaker 2 (01:20:37):
Say that I do.

Speaker 1 (01:20:39):
You could do halves, you could do halves, you can't
do quarters. I get it, I get it. I'm gonna
do a five five and a half because and people
are gonna be like, you're kidding, you're ranking.

Speaker 2 (01:20:46):
This higher than right now five and a half.

Speaker 1 (01:20:48):
I did pretty pink pose, okay. I people are gonna
be like, you're really ranking this higher than Camp Rock.
I'm giving this more leeway than Camp Rock because it
had nothing to come pair itself to yet. That's why
I'm giving it a little bit more away. It's Disney
is still finding its voice in the Disney Channel Movie World,

(01:21:11):
and this was a swing and an attempt at It
wasn't a great one, but it also wasn't an awful one.
It was a decent cast. Yes, it's a good story.
Idea ghost from the fifties befriends a kid from the
nineties to help solve something that had Okay, good total
Disney Channel. Also, I think they.

Speaker 2 (01:21:28):
Took on some of those topics.

Speaker 1 (01:21:31):
Yes, head on.

Speaker 2 (01:21:34):
I mean again, I don't remember a ton, but I
can't imagine. During that time was very comfortable for people
to really talk about stuff, and on a Disney level,
like how do you do that? Not to teenagers necessarily
it's like right under preteen.

Speaker 1 (01:21:50):
Yeah, five point five to six pretty much is what
I'm gonna say. That's that's where I am. And I
think I think it's I think it earned.

Speaker 2 (01:21:56):
Yeah, I think there were Again, I'm gonna agree with
you with a lot of the out of the holes,
something like the charm bracelet getting pulled up on a
fishing line. Those kinds of things were I feel like
we could have done again have easily been like quickly
fixed to make it not weird. But I did like it.

(01:22:18):
I think it just prove the main actress. She was
just so cute to me. Both they were such a
cute coupling together. I think I'm gonna go with a
solid six.

Speaker 1 (01:22:30):
Okay around Oh you added rhinestones? Geez, like the boat.
There you go. I thought there are real diamonds. I
thought you'd never wear a hinestone, but those were real.

Speaker 2 (01:22:41):
The detail.

Speaker 1 (01:22:44):
I think, so yeah, I can see that. I could.
I could go six to like I said, five minutes six,
it's right around that.

Speaker 2 (01:22:49):
I did love it. I do not agree with the
five star review. I will not be watching this on
a replay. This is not fresh.

Speaker 1 (01:22:55):
Strangely enough, though, I absolutely agree with the one star
review of the Susi Q Cake We're Hostess.

Get it Together?
