The Clubhouse – Episode 36

The following is a sooner orgator production.
I've already put a jam.
I said I already put a jam.
Yo, gee.
King, thrum of weed.
It is 816 on the East Coast.
It is 516 on the West Coast.
It is a 17th of April in the year of our Lord 2000 and 15.
Season 5 episode 36 chronologically 295 times you've heard this voice welcome you to the clubhouse podcast.
Again.
You're probably seeing yourself robots Friday.
What's going on?
It's not Sunday.
Of course it's not Sunday because it's Friday.
But if you're asking that question, you're not paying attention to our social media
feeds.
Because it is time for the Dallas International Film Festival Special Edition Park DOOP.
My name is Rob.
And it's going to be a good night.
I can already feel it.
Joining me to my right is my co-host.
And a man that's, again, addresses me.
But I got to see the episode 7 trailer before him.
He is chat.
Show off.
You're just showing off now.
Okay.
Give me a second down.
But joining me across the desk.
We're already got guests.
Because we are live in the media lounge with the Dallas International Film Festival.
Also across the desk is the official fact checker of this show.
And a man that's got his running shoes on tonight.
You may know him.
We're on Don Go.
But his mom and even Don Ford.
I'm going to call him Don Ford.
Welcome.
We're back at the desk.
Wow.
That's loud.
Hello loud.
That was loud.
Yeah.
We are in.
You're already running.
We're going to get right to it.
From Thunder broke the heavens.
He is Tanner Beard.
Welcome sir.
That's too many buttons to push.
That's my problem.
Thanks for having me.
You get to be in the movie that Don's been talking about for a week.
And probably the most covered movie we've done at the festival.
Just because first of all, quality people involved.
Go ahead and tell us who's behind this masterpiece that you guys have worked on.
And they have two films here.
So I'm just in one of them.
But that's Tim Scowsen.
The director of Thunder broke the heavens.
An executive producer Jeremy Coon, who's a Dallas native, which is great.
And they also have another film here, a documentary called Raiders, which I think you saw.
Oh, we loved it.
And I saw it myself by Southwest.
And it is.
If you've ever filmed anything with even with your cell phone camera and try to make something out of it.
You have to watch this documentary.
It's it's truly inspiring.
It's it is.
It was one of my favorite films of the festival that I've seen.
Now, Don's probably seeing more films that I have.
But I've seen at least a handful of 160 films.
You can't see them all.
So tell us about Thunder broke the heavens.
I know we covered it last week.
We got people that listened this week.
They didn't listen last week.
So go ahead sir.
Yeah, that is great news that it's been covered.
So so well, it's a tear jerk or man, but it's a really cool movie.
It's based on really Vince, which is, you know, always something that I find, you know, way more interesting.
But it's about these two kids who were victims of kind of a murder suicide.
You know, within their family and they were able to get away.
But, you know, being victims of that very unfortunate situation.
They were put into foster care.
And even the foster care became very kind of an abusive household.
And the two kids having to rely on each other actually ran away into the woods.
And kind of found this place out in the woods called Far Crying, which they called it.
And it's, you know, just them trying to survive with each other.
And they're incredibly young.
And it's, again, it being based on a real story.
It really vent is quite the tear jerker.
And who do you get to play in this fine?
I know best.
I don't get to play a white hat at character.
But, you know, I play the foster father that takes them in.
And unfortunately, you know, they kind of take them in for the wrong reasons.
It's more about the paycheck.
Right.
It's about taking care of these kids.
And they have two kids of their own.
And Dawn Keller, my character, you know, he's, you know, struggles with dealing with his kind of wife's decision to take on these kids for the check.
And, you know, he kind of takes it out on the kids.
And, again, it's a real life situation though.
You know, this, these things happen out there.
Even though this is kind of more of a fictional situation.
But, but yeah, you know, it was a fantastic role for me.
It's something totally different.
I, I actually packed on a couple pounds to do it.
Not because Tim was like, you know, Tim, I think you should gain some weight.
But, you know, I was playing a character about six or seven years older than I was.
I just kind of had the facial hair at the time to pull it off.
But I just wanted to kind of get in that, you know, lower middle class kind of blue collar sense.
And so I would eat water burger.
I'm, I'm forcing that as an excuse.
Four or five times.
Yeah, I'm kind of distant.
I'm using that as an excuse.
It's really just a excuse.
Why I was like, just so gigantic at that time.
But it, but it really did make, you know, it, more authentic for me personally.
I, I worked in a low field for four years.
Oh, wow.
So I tried to draw from that.
And, you know, just try to, try to make it as authentic.
And I'm, I'm not a method actor.
I'm not going to say that.
But, you know, I do methodology things sometimes, especially when, you know, when you're just acting
in a film like this one.
So, like, scarf down water burgers for a row.
You know, it was for the, it was for the art.
I feel, I always said that I feel bad for people that don't have water burgers.
And they, like, thread gills in Austin.
I got to give them props because I ate their everyday twice a day.
So you film this thing in right around three weeks.
And we've talked about the off air.
Of course, that you're a filmmaker yourself.
How does that, how does that part of you deal with that kind of a shooting schedule?
Do you have to separate both mind frames or is, are they kind of one of the same?
Yeah, that's a good question.
I actually started off as an actor.
So, I still think of myself as that, as an actor who likes to make films as well.
But then if I'm filmmaking, I think of myself as a filmmaker that likes to act for fun.
So, whatever is in front of me at the time, I guess.
But, you know, it was such a well-to-well machine.
You know, the crew that Tim put in Jeremy put together.
And all the producers, Haley, for everybody, was so good at what they did.
And, you know, there are no stranger to the game.
This isn't the first film that they've made.
These guys made Napoleon Dynamite.
Yeah, they mentioned that in passing last week.
And it went, it did one of these.
Yeah, I was listening back to the show when I went there.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Back to truck up a couple of planes here.
He's a vote for Pedro.
Because he just mentioned his Napoleon.
And it just didn't hit me.
Yeah, these guys worked on him.
And it's crazy.
Because, you know, this was such a, you know, a real-life drama.
And these guys, you know, have such a great comedic background.
But it just shows the versatility of, you know, Tim has a director
and all the producers and all the filmmakers that made this thing possible.
But, you know, it was, it was, it was interesting to see how they worked, you know,
versus like some other sets I've been on.
And they just, again, well, oh, the machine without question, they did a great job.
We actually had the opportunity to talk to the two young actors that you got to work with last week.
Both great kids in their own right.
Talk about working with them.
Alex Peters, it's going to be a huge star.
She's from Russia.
Actually, she really, she's from Russia.
No clue.
She had.
Never would have guessed that.
But she did a phenomenal job.
And just to sing, you know, sing and play and be, I mean, she's really playing the guitar
when she does that and her singing voice is so beautiful.
And then she's a top-notch actor on top of that.
Just what it just got her resume for a dream.
But a dream to work with and, for Tim to direct, I'm sure, in Gavin was just so good
and just this facial expressions.
He's so young.
He's so young.
You know, he's starting to chemistry.
They had together.
I mean, they were incredible.
Tim brought this up to it.
It's really, like, they really were like a real brother and sister out there.
But you know, you're on set with these people.
You become like a little family all together.
So, you know, especially on that kind of a time crunch.
You kind of have to band together quickly.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
Three.
Three.
I think it was a little bit more than three weeks.
But it was, it was a running gun shoot.
But I thought about the film was beautiful.
So, shameless self-promotions.
What do you have coming up?
You know, actually speaking of more movies being shot in Texas,
it's a very cool, thriller actually.
But it's, it's a great, great script called on the 10th day.
And we're kind of in the casting process right now.
I think we're going to, you know, be getting started on that within the next month or two.
And then I'm before just before that, I think I'm going to Tennessee to film a movie called
romance and shit.
Hey, there's what it's called.
We let that one go because it's in the title of the shit.
Yeah, it is, it is.
It's a title.
And it, there's an asterisk where the eye is, but that's what it's called.
And it's actually a really, really funny, it's not a, actually you can call it a
romance because it's about three brothers relationship.
And their father, like losing their mother.
And it's actually a really funny, bro comedy.
Nice.
So great guy John Myers is directing that.
So I think I'm going to head out there and do that.
And then I'm hopefully going to be shooting another film here in Texas.
It's like, October called Just Be Claws.
No, it's a Christmas movie.
Just be Claws.
That's good.
I wish you'd hear in Santa Claus, Indiana.
Any personal social media you want to throw out there?
Yeah.
You could check me out.
I'm on Twitter.
Tanner Beard at Tanner Beard.
And that's the same for my Instagram, same for everything actually.
I always forget about my Instagram.
Kind of on Facebook.
I have a thing on Facebook.
I just can't write anybody back.
It's like one of those things.
But go and, you know, push the like button.
I think that's, that's really good.
I need to be on Facebook more.
But I need to be on Instagram more.
Yeah.
I just forget about Instagram.
That's my name.
And I need my name.
I default to Twitter.
I don't know why.
I'm on Twitter a lot.
I get all my news from Twitter.
I'm such a travel so much.
I rely on it.
But Instagram is my favorite because I look at everybody's pretty pictures.
All right.
Thunder broke the heavens.
Hopefully distribution going on there.
I hope so, man.
I'm so stoked to be here at the Dallas International Film Festival.
They've been so good to the movie.
And it's gotten a great response.
So I'm hoping, you know, we kill it here and then move on.
So the next one, hopefully everybody will be watching it.
And, you know, they're televisions and then movie theaters very soon.
But it was honor for us to have you on, sir.
I know.
It's probably time for you to go relax and maybe have a beverage or two and just kind of take it all in.
Yeah.
I haven't seen what Dallas has to offer.
All right.
Tanner beer.
Thank you so much for joining us.
I enjoyed the evening.
Yes, sir.
So as you know, the clubhouse podcast.
We are live from the media lounge at the Dap 9th annual Dallas International Film Festival.
We got to put the nine on it for.
We got to put it on there.
Indeed.
Because we have to do this thing.
That's already working.
We've got another guest and I'm very excited.
Yes.
I'm very, very excited.
Because I love it.
One thing I love about the Dallas International Film Festival is when it features local talent.
And I'm going to tell you something.
And geographically, it don't get much more local than our next guest done.
We are.
Oh, my God.
You're good.
You're good.
We have the director of the film.
Which we got to review.
We did.
We did.
We did on our website.
My tunes.
Book a lot.
Which our website love.
WWE that clubhouse podcast.
Which is our website.
There you go.
I love that movie.
I know you did.
I know you did.
We have the director here.
Jorge Gutierrez.
Welcome to the show.
So we're talking right into that microphone.
Thank you guys.
Thank you guys for having me.
This is awesome.
You guys are like a well old machine.
You weren't here 20 minutes ago.
If only he knew.
I got to tell you.
I love that movie.
No big.
It was incredible on that thing.
Thank you.
It's just real effects.
Literally what?
Three blocks from here.
Yeah.
Local studio.
And we made the movie, you know, for the whole world.
And we made it here.
And not only that, but there's so much that real effects is getting far.
It's getting, finally, getting the recognition that they deserve for.
But we're here to talk about your movie.
That actually, even though it came out last year, you still got that screened.
Yeah.
The Dallas International Film Festival.
Let me first of all say the animation style in this thing is gorgeous.
Beautiful.
It's just beautiful.
If you've ever heard of the day of the dead, which is the day after Halloween, that takes
place in Mexico.
That style is what this film encompasses.
I don't know how long did it take you to do that film?
Man, it was 14 years altogether.
Wow.
I started it in film school.
And when I graduated, an agent signed me.
And I did a short that very much inspired the movie.
An agent sent me to all the studios and every studio said no.
So you're just a dumb kid out of school.
No one wants to see this.
Just say.
And so I just worked for years in the industry.
And I kept working on it.
Eventually, real effects found me.
And they said, we'd like to take a look at your project.
And I pitched it to them.
They fell in love with it.
I moved to Dallas from LA.
And I a year after working in on it.
They said, who'd be your dream producer?
And I said, yeah, well, the Torah.
Stop.
I watched it like this, or you came to me?
But I screamed at, you know, the top of my lungs.
Yeah, well, the Torah.
And like the Mexican Santa Claus he appeared.
And he came down and I pitched in the movie.
And he went for it.
And then 20th Century Fox got involved.
And it was a co-production between real effects and Fox.
And we killed ourselves in that movie.
I know it sounds ridiculous to say.
But these animated movies, usually they cost, you know,
$100 million.
$150.
Sometimes $200 million.
Right?
We did about the life for $50 million.
Wow.
Which is, again, ridiculous to say it's a low budget $50 million.
But when you're dealing with that kind of animation,
and first of all, you're doing it for a quarter of the budget
to somebody's other films.
Exactly.
And quality-wise, it's right there on par.
And in the US, because that was the other thing.
A lot of studios are now outsourcing their animation
to other countries.
We kept it in the US, which is a huge deal.
And not a bad voice cast either.
No, no.
It was a dream voice cast, you know,
chaining Tatum, Zoe Zalana, Diego Luna.
We had ice cube in there, Christine Ablege.
There you go.
Kelly Bundy, it was a dream for me.
And then, just, it was an amazing, amazing cast.
We got to use music from all these bands that fell in love with a movie
and kind of let us use their music.
What's next?
A new film, if they just announced it,
it's a Kung Fu Space Western.
I'm in.
I'm in.
I wish you had the idea.
You had the idea.
You had the idea.
I'm just starting the script.
Okay.
If the drinking goes well tonight.
You can add a, take a month out of my writing schedule,
depending on where the idea is like it.
We're getting the high sign from your people,
but real quick, any, any plans before you go.
Check out real effects, the, the studio.
And then my, my website is supermacho.com.
Supermacho.com.
I love it.
We will be following it closely, trust me.
Go enjoy the evening, sir.
I wish me to have more time, but they're giving me the high sign.
And I don't want to, I don't want to make that lady mad,
because she looks like she could throw something on her.
She's, she's tough.
She's got like, she's got like the phone sniper thing going on.
Or it gives you a thank you so much, sir.
And thank you, guys.
Oh, it's our honor to have you join the first session.
How long are you kidding me?
Book of life.
Ah.
I need to own that.
I thought you did.
I don't know that.
Oh, yeah.
I've watched it like three times now.
If it sounds like we're kind of going through the cavalcade of stars,
it's because tonight is the DFS honors.
We are giving away all the awards right now downstairs.
We're on the ninth floor at the Highland Hotel.
The award show is seven floors down from us.
Right now.
So we get to be up here.
We're actually right inside the entrance to the media lounge.
So we're going to catch everybody as we're coming in.
Dom's doing his due diligence to get stuff done because he's that good.
So looks like we have a little bit of breathing time.
You want to talk some headlines?
Yes.
Let's start with some TV headlines.
Congratulations to both VP and Silicon Valley,
both getting renewed by HBO after their first episodes of the season.
I hear such great things about VP, but I've never watched an episode.
I'm always worried that it's going to be like sign-filled in the White House,
but I haven't talked to anybody who doesn't say this film.
This show is not brilliant.
And I've heard you talk about Silicon Valley, right?
I've not watched Silicon Valley.
I'm a fan of the people that are in it.
I've never watched.
Okay.
You're thinking halt and catch fire.
Which was on AMC, which I'm hoping comes back.
I haven't heard the fate of that show.
Netflix also renews oranges the new black for season four.
So congratulations to them.
There was very little doubt in my mind that it was going to get renewed.
Oh yeah, because everybody in their brother watches it.
And, you know, and I'm not saying that I've been on this next show from day one,
but I have.
Game of Thrones season five has its best viewership ever,
even better than last year.
And oh, by the way, Game of Thrones is also now HBO's most successful original series
ever in the history of ever for HBO.
So it's top the sopranos.
Yep.
And dog on right.
And for your American horror story, hotel.
Sarah Polly joining the cast.
She's rejoining the cast this season.
Sarah Palson.
Yeah, Sarah Palson.
She's like the fixture.
She's been there every season.
She's back.
But I also heard that Jessica Lain.
This is her last go round.
I didn't think she was going to be a part of this one.
No, she said this is her last go round.
Oh, okay.
I thought last season was her last go round.
We have another guest joining us right now.
I loved the name of the studio.
Spider circle films.
You should be in on this.
Right across from Chad right now.
Jeff and McGee Jeff talk right to that microphone.
Say hello to everybody.
Hey, how's it going?
Doing well sir.
How are you?
Doing very well.
I'm happy to be here.
Another man out dressing me.
But it was casual Friday at work.
I wasn't going to.
Yeah, but you knew people were going to be bringing it.
And I've also got, you know, I've got my clubhouse podcast shirt on.
That was important.
Well, we have luminaries in the building.
People are trying to step it up.
I'm not that guy.
I know.
Okay.
So Jeff, I told us what's going on.
How's the festival been to you so far?
It's been great.
It's been great.
I've actually been on the show before.
I don't know if you remember me.
But that's okay.
I think it's the facial hair.
You didn't have the facial hair.
No, I didn't.
No, I didn't.
That's what it is.
I've grown up in the past year.
We haven't.
And that's the same thing.
That's awesome.
I was like.
And then when you said we've been on the show before, I was like,
Okay, hold on.
And then I realized it was video fast.
Yes.
I was there for a film called Strings that won the Best of Texas Short Film.
And that film was premiered at the Cannes Film Festival back in 2013.
And I've had a film here at the festival back in 2011 called Neil.
And that was at the, that premiered at South by.
And that's about a pool cleaner killing people.
Oh, well.
Yes.
Because that's what you do.
It's a feel good movie.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's the best summer.
Get away movie for every, for the entire family.
I've always thought.
So what's going on right now, man?
Are you just kind of hanging out for the festival?
Have you got something that you're getting ready to do?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm actually in pre-production on a feature film called The Grand Feast.
It's a crowdfunding campaign going on right now on Hatch Fund.
It's a gothic fairy tale inspired by Hansel and Gretel.
And we're shooting down in Brownsville at an awesome plantation home.
And a lot of local Dallas actors and crew in Texas.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Keep it in the family.
And yeah.
I mean, so it was my first feature film as a director.
And I'm really, really excited about it.
I just pulled it up on IVV.
This thing sounds a little sick.
Yeah.
It's my goal to make the audience a little bit uncomfortable.
That's the re-teacher base of Texas film.
Yeah.
It sounds like you took the Eli Roth short that was in Grand House of Thanksgiving.
Oh, the Thanksgiving.
Yeah.
I don't know if it'll be.
I don't know if it'll have that much blood.
But yeah.
I see what you're going with that though.
Have you had a chance to check out any movies that have stood out to you during the festival?
Raiders.
Raiders was.
I see.
I don't want to over talk this film because I feel like you can talk this film all day long.
You can't over talk.
You can't over talk.
You can't over talk.
Did you go find the one sheet?
I was looking for it.
And then my.
It's under if you go to the here on IMDB right now.
If you go to the latest posters gallery.
It's in there.
Okay.
This Raiders just did it.
These kids did what every one of us geeks wanted to do.
And they actually committed to them.
They were filming their their own childhood.
I mean, it's in a sense of genius.
And whenever I was watching it,
it took me back because the first film I ever saw was Batman.
And Batman, Tim Burton's Batman, added in the theater.
And so it really kind of took me back because I would recreate, you know, scenes from Batman and other films and such.
Like my using my action figures and shooting on 16 millimeter.
So I, you know, it was just great.
I loved it.
God, that made me feel old.
I was like, I was going to leave that alone.
But one of the things that we talked about last week on the show that really, really impressed me is the fact that.
Basically, he storyboarded this thing from memory.
Like in 1981, you couldn't, unless you went back to the theater again.
You weren't going to have it on home video.
You didn't have the internet.
You didn't have DVD.
Yeah.
He literally just saw it and store boarded it.
And I was like, yeah.
Oh, I don't know.
Just people just have an amazing memory that way.
But I mean, they really couldn't get everything until, until it was released on VHS.
You know, and that was much, much later.
Yeah, exactly.
Well, I can't remember what I saw on Game of Thrones on Sunday for God's Saints.
This guy, I remember that.
Yeah.
Because I think back in that day, it took about a year for a movie to come out on VHS.
But even in the early 80s, it was two to three.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
And even then, yeah, if you wanted to buy them, you couldn't buy them.
Right.
And she had like 300 bucks like around.
Right.
And it just, all of just the way they tell that story.
Mm-hmm.
You just sit there and you go.
It just melts your brain.
I remember giving to their Kickstarter to make that last scene.
You know, I gave them, like, like, like, $30 or something because I even wanted to see it.
And I'm still on the hunt for a VHS copy of their fan film.
Now, I had heard that they actually showed it after the documentary at South Bay.
They showed the scene that they made.
Oh, they just showed the story.
Yeah.
Yeah.
They didn't show the entire film.
Oh, you know, that'd be watching like two entire movies.
And according to Wade, the documentary, I don't think anyone would have complained.
No, no, no.
No, no.
Just, I was ready.
I didn't care.
I was ready to watch it after that documentary.
I mean, it was just, it was just great.
And I mean, I've always tried to find a VHS copy of it because I've always known about it.
You know, but it's so hard to get a copy of it.
I know you can find it online.
I believe.
I think, yeah.
But I, I don't want to see it online.
There's just something about that VHS vibe.
I still have a VCR in my living room.
Sure.
Sure.
It functions as a clock and nothing else.
But it's in my living room.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
And I still have, I still have that, you know, and I mean, with the new Star Wars and stuff, you know, coming out and, you know, different versions and stuff.
Yeah, we'll keep the one that I grew up with.
We were actually talking about that the other day where we were going through the list of, okay, I've got the original trilogy.
I've got the original VHS release.
I got the THX remasters.
I got the THX remasters.
I've actually, and I've also got those on laser disk.
Oh, nice.
I do.
And then I bought the DVDs.
And then I bought the blue rays.
And it's just like, I want to stay out of my pocket George.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I have heard supposedly that they are going to release the original versions on blue ray.
But later this year is the rumors I'm hearing.
Right.
But what's this with George Lucas telling people that, oh, the original prints are done or they're gone or whatever, which I never believed.
And I know you did.
Yeah.
More a second.
One word Disney.
Okay.
Yeah.
Disney has ways.
That's all I'm saying.
You had the elements to make the special editions with and they're in fine shape.
All you got to do is take out what you put in.
Yeah.
Going back, I watched them the blue rays a couple of weeks ago.
I just, I got home from work.
I'm like, you know what?
I want to watch Star Wars.
And it's like watching the special editions are like, some of the effects.
It's like, you didn't even try.
Like, you can tell the quality difference.
So what's in the foreground and the background?
Oh, absolutely.
Yeah.
You didn't even try to match this up.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, basically, I remember when my old roommate when he came home and he was like,
Oh my god, I got blue stars on blue rays.
Like, let me just watch the bonus features.
That's all.
That's all.
I'll borrow from you.
But that's pretty much it.
Every time I get to the job of seeing an episode four, right?
Right.
Right.
But you know what kills me about that scene more than anything?
He calls him a wonderful human being.
And then the original footage he was.
Well, all in a big old Irish guy.
He's in time band.
It's one of Robin Hood's little merry men.
Yeah.
And what are your thoughts on the possibility of Chris Pratt taking over Indian Jones?
I'm okay with it.
I know that you're a lukewarm.
No, no.
I made peace with it.
Because I know that I'm never going to get who I really want to play him.
Who do you want?
Philly.
Philly.
Oh, really?
Nathan Philly.
Oh, man.
That'd be a good choice.
I want Nathan Philly.
Yeah.
I mean, as far as like, you know, just doing mostly film stuff.
I mean, obviously us nerds.
You know, we know exactly who he is.
Because he's already played that character on Frick and Firefly.
Exactly.
That this was made for him to recreate if it needs to be.
Yeah, yeah.
Can we send a shout out real quick.
Barb wires in the chat room.
Friend of the show.
Oh, cool.
Good.
I want to see.
I just saw his name in there in the room.
Yeah.
I just, I don't know.
I'm okay with Pratt.
I really am.
As long as we're just going to reboot the thing.
Yeah.
I ain't going to be sure.
We all know that.
Yeah.
No more swinging jungles.
Please.
No more monkeys.
Yeah.
I wanted to.
When I saw that, I was more in development.
And my father's mouse.
But you know, but you know.
Yeah.
And he was okay with that.
I remember that.
Are you sure.
I'm positive.
My dad was here.
He would confirm that.
We did.
Remember what we learned from King name of the crystal skulls, though.
In case of nuclear fallout.
A refrigerator will protect you.
Nooking.
Nooking the fridge has replaced jumping the shark.
Hmm.
If you have, if a nuclear bond goes off, get in the fridge and you'll be fine.
Yeah.
That's what we learned.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Crazy.
Right.
We can talk some.
If you want to talk some movie headlines, we can do that.
No problem.
Yeah.
We're going to skip the first story.
Because we have to bury the lead for a minute.
X-Men apocalypse news.
X-Mockinger comes out today.
Yeah.
We have to scream it on Monday night.
It's wonderful.
Oh.
Oscar Isaac.
Yeah.
That is growing exponentially.
Hmm.
I didn't see him as apocalypse.
Until I saw this film.
Because in X-Men, he has this huge beard.
So look, he's bald and has a huge beard.
And when you look at him in this film, it's like, okay, now I can see a apocalypse.
Cool.
So we also have siloque has been cast.
Played by the Olivia Munn.
Okay.
Physically.
Yeah.
She's got the moon.
Acting wise.
I'm a little.
Because I haven't watched Newsroom.
That's the only thing she's really done.
Oh, again.
I'm wasting the first episode of Newsroom.
It's brilliant.
It's absolutely brilliant.
So here's the thing with the newsroom.
She is living breathing proof that Aaron Sorkon can turn anyone into an actor.
Okay.
Yeah.
So my issue is,
I don't know that you can use that as a proper gauge
to what her acting techniques will be in this thing.
Yeah.
Because for me,
it's risky.
It's a little risky.
I understand where you're coming from.
I mean, I'm still going to go.
Oh, yeah.
You know, because not.
Yeah.
I see a lot of people that I've talked to had issues with things
of future past.
I personally like.
Oh, I love things of future past.
I thought they took screen writing in that film as genius.
They took that thing and they put it in.
I saw a bow and they tied both franchises together
and we can move forward.
Yeah.
Because X3 and X3 were so bad.
I liked X2.
X3 was just crazy.
Did you know that little, like, okay,
like, this is just to test my little movie knowledge here,
basically, because I follow this stuff constantly.
So of course, Brian Singer was supposed to do X3,
but then he left to do Superman Returns as we all know.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And Brett Radner was supposed to,
but he was supposed to do Superman Returns.
And then he came up with a play of switching.
But the thing is,
before Brett Radner came on,
they had Matthew Vaughn,
who eventually did first class.
Right.
And he had cast Vinnie Jones as joggernaut.
So that was a little bit of his creativity in X3,
but I don't know.
Just like once,
just so many directors just kind of going in and out and such.
I mean,
it was just like,
as if 20% of your fuck just kind of came into a room
and just like, okay,
you know what?
No matter what we're going to do,
let's just release it or whatever,
and we'll fix it later.
For me, I saw first class.
But that's the business.
So,
when I saw first class,
my whole thing was,
I told him,
it's amazing,
but leave your cake brain at the door.
Because it's so far out of continuity,
it's almost back in it.
So just appreciate it for the brilliance of the film
that it is.
Yeah.
And I just,
you know,
that's why when I heard he was directing Kingsman,
I was like, come in.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Kingsman's home.
Well, I've been following Matthew Vaughn,
since Lockstock and Tuesday,
he was just a booster on that.
Because he worked with Guy Richie.
Yeah.
And then he came out with layer cake,
and it was like,
yeah.
Without a doubt,
you ran a Greg,
you were Bond.
And if you haven't seen layer cake,
I will just tell you,
that ending.
That's all I've said.
That's all I've said.
Anything of that movie you go.
Yeah.
I have a question.
Yeah.
Oh, layer cake is awesome.
It's so amazing.
And I think they made a sequel,
and it was great to DVD.
Don't watch it.
Yeah.
If there's a sequel,
don't watch it.
Don't watch it.
Also,
we have found out that they've,
they've revealed who's going to be playing
in the New York Zoo Land or Sun in Zulander 2,
which comes out as February,
it is a Cyrus Arnold and they're kind of going with the
Chubby Young Kids Sun thing to Derek Zulander's
Super Mote.
And I know you haven't seen it.
I enjoyed that film.
I thought it was funny.
I love Zulander.
He hates wolf herald.
Also on May.
This predisposition of wolf herald takes him out of that film.
Yeah.
Hey, A question.
Can you,
can you guys say?
It's been so long since I've watched it.
Cutinka.
Tinka Ingabogolv and then non-no.
There he is.
Hey, but see here's the thing that you may not know.
About a year ago, friend, by the way, by the way,
a friend of the show Devon Pike is here.
He will be DJing and doing karaoke tonight.
So we're very excited to see Devon.
Last year when we did our first work with him at Gillies for the...
the Shindig for...
Right.
That's who Trigger Mortis was dressed at.
I know.
Okay, I'll see you on the screen.
Okay.
And I don't know that against her.
You can put your headphones on, sir.
We'll bring you on right now.
Because not only do we have one repeat guest on right now.
We have two.
Ooh, I know this guy.
Introduce yourself, my friend, because I'm going to let you do it.
I'll express it to Patrick here.
She's a social programmer of the film festival.
And a man who may have had the coolest job in the room last Thursday night.
As we open the festival, with a movie called I'll see you in my dreams.
And then the Star Award was presented to the great Blife Danner.
And who do I see on the stage giving her the award?
Then this guy!
I'm like, that's our body!
I was just holding the thing out.
But you were there.
You were closer to Blife Danner than I was.
So, you win.
You win the night.
How...
First of all, film was amazing.
Film was good, I saw it.
It really...
Yeah.
I really enjoyed that film.
Did you spend any time with her?
Yes.
We got to hang out a little bit.
Backstage when we were waiting for the instructions.
Go!
And...
Grab trophy.
Can't draw me.
Thanks trophy back so that we can engrave it and then mail it.
So, it was a very cool experience.
She was super nice.
She's just...
She's just...
To find out that at 71 she'd never had a leading role before.
This film.
Yeah.
I love this movie so much.
And the whole time I'm watching this film,
I kept going,
Gwen, if you will never be your mother.
Never ever be able to equal the talent.
Like, she's just...
She's one of those people that she doesn't walk.
She just glides.
Like, there's so much grace and there's so much just beauty to that woman.
That's...
She definitely looked amazing for her age.
Yeah.
And she...
And she crushed that film.
Yeah.
Absolutely crushed it in that movie.
Loved it so much.
You've been here every day, my friend.
Correct.
Highlights for you so far.
I'll see you in my dreams.
I've basically ever seen a movie that we've had.
It's been a different experience with it.
With the filmmakers coming in and just...
As usual, the crowds are just amazing.
The audiences just love the films.
And are so welcoming of the filmmakers.
And it just...
For us in the programming team,
it's just great to be able to introduce the film.
Can't over the filmmakers to the crowd.
And know that it's going to be a great Q&A and a great screening.
And it looked like things have been going very smoothly from what I've seen.
I haven't been here every day, but I've been here for a good chunk of it.
Yeah.
And everything seemed to be moving very smoothly.
All the volunteers were very...
I've been very knowledgeable.
You know, telling me who should have had a media guide with him and didn't...
Where I needed to go.
Because like last night, I got to see a Lone Star Holy War.
Which was pretty good.
It was good.
It was good.
I kind of think that there were some...
They kind of glossed over some things that I wish they could have gone through.
Some things that I wish they could have gone deeper in.
But it was only 75 minutes long.
Gotcha.
So you didn't get...
Well, I'll tell you what I did dig about it though.
It was when they talk about...
Basically the story of it for those of you who don't know.
It's about the rivalry for the University of Texas and Texas A&M.
And...
Okay.
When A&M leaves to go to the SEC, they call it the breakup.
And the documentary actually looks at it from both sides of it.
How A&M saw it versus how Texas saw it.
And it's two very, very different stories depending on who you're listening to.
Cool.
That's genius.
Yeah, it's...
I thought it was really well done.
I wish it could have been longer because there's some things I really wish it could have gotten deeper into.
But it was very, very good.
For me.
And I don't know...
I bet...
Were you there for bad kid begins?
I thought it was...
I missed that.
I would've made it.
I made sure.
I set like three alarms to make sure I was out of bed to get to the Angelica for that.
The documentary about the kid who has the makeup...
It's called the Mikko with a wish heard around the world.
And that documentary, which is...
We read on Mikko Pidea, is actually going to get a theatrical release at the end of June.
Cool.
It's amazing.
Cool.
Bring a box of clean-exes with you.
Yeah.
Because if this movie does not affect you emotionally, you may need to check that out.
You still have soul.
You still have soul.
Right.
And to see that, and Raiders kind of back to back.
Because we saw Raiders last Friday, and then got up Saturday morning,
to come see that kid begins.
It was just like a total one-two punch for me.
Yeah.
Personally.
I loved that film.
Don got this fun to have it.
I think they're making a feature film version of it.
Yeah.
I've heard Julia Raiders was bought this week.
Yeah.
They're saying that she's going to play his mother.
And if that's the case, we may need to check some things.
Because it depends on how that's going to work.
Well, it depends on the script and everything and how everything falls together and
such.
So, you know, I heard that Julia Raiders is a producer on it.
So hopefully it'll go in the right direction, because I would definitely love to see the documentary.
Like I said, I overslept.
I was having too much fun at Diff the other the night before, I guess.
So a lot of people love it.
I've been here every night.
So, so hopefully it'll just go in that correct direction that it needs to go, you know.
And I'll also try to thought.
Sorry.
This media lounge alone.
Oh, dude.
What a gorgeous room.
We just come past that.
After the movies, you get to talk about things.
The night floor, the Highland Hotel.
I mean, yeah, you can't get any better than this with the view and the lights and everything.
It's great.
View from here is insane.
Yeah.
And when you drive by on the freeway, when you drive by on the freeway,
and you can see the room lit up from 75 as we were driving by last night.
After we, after I saw a, oh, it's our holy war.
It's just this thing.
This is our second year.
And we thought last year was great.
This year just raised the bar.
Yeah.
And it was next year being the 10th.
I'm sure you guys are already working on next year.
You can neither current confirmed or deny.
Okay.
We're still wrapping up these ones.
So everybody right now is downstairs.
We have this on there.
So I'll, I'll, I'll go anyway.
Is, oh.
Yeah.
Just gotta go.
I gotta go.
Sorry, guys.
Jepiggy, spider circle films.
Yes.
The grand fees, hatchfund.org.
Please help us make this film possible.
Help them out.
We love how the local filmmakers.
Thank you.
We appreciate it, man.
It's our honor to have you.
Oh, yeah.
I'll be back for sure.
Oh, we're, we're looking forward to it, sir.
See you, buddy.
Because we have another guest joining us right now.
Hey, how's it going, guys?
How are you, sir?
We are joined right now.
Okay.
I sometimes got to read Don's handwriting.
How many mush got the mayor of a, of a small town called West Texas?
Let me tell you something.
You have gotten a lot of my money.
Every time I drive through West,
the check stop is that is mandatory.
I don't care who's in the car with me.
I appreciate your patronage.
Every, I don't care who's in the car with me.
If I'm going to stop there.
Here's the deal.
You have to.
You have to.
Yeah.
I'm in a van.
We do prison ministry.
So we go down the gates of all.
Yeah.
And my guitar player knows.
We're, we're hitting West all the way down.
That's going to stop because you have to go to the check stop.
It's, it's the law.
That's pretty much it.
And that's what we were known for two years ago before today.
And two years ago today.
Two years ago.
Two years ago.
Right now.
It's 751.
And that was the, the minute that it exploded.
That's right.
Oh my God.
Yeah.
We just passed it by two minutes.
You just missed it by two minutes.
I remember where I was when I found out.
I was, I was working nights back then.
Yeah.
And I just happened to find out via the internet.
And for those of you don't know.
We're talking about a documentary called The Day West shook Texas.
Two years ago today.
There was a horrible thing that happened in West.
I'm going to let you talk about it.
You're the Mr. Mayor.
You're the, okay.
You are the honorable mayor.
I think I do know a little bit.
Just a little bit.
West fertilizer plant.
It's been there forever.
Stored ammonium nitrate.
There was a fire in the, in the building.
The fire ignited the ammonium nitrate at 751.
We had the 12 first responders that were on scene.
At the time of the explosion.
The 12 first responders died along with three other individuals from the community.
How, I mean, when did the documentary?
Who came with the idea of let's make a documentary about this?
And how long ago was it that you guys made the documentary?
Well, the gentleman that made the documentary is Jim Garrick.
And I think he'll talk to him in a minute.
He's from West.
He lives now here in Dallas.
And he's been in the, the film business.
But he was originally from West.
His father was the, the fire martial fire chief of West for years and years.
And so he, you know, he had the connection to West.
And so he came down after that and then made a comprehensive documentary from,
before the explosion, through the explosion, through the immediate recovery into the one year,
two year anniversary.
So what he, what you're going to see in his movie is,
the full two year, relax it.
That he, that he implemented.
Now I know because I drive through the town quite a bit.
Tell our listeners because we have listeners all over the world.
Tell them how West is now, how is West today?
West is doing a very well.
We're, we're going to find our new normal one of these days.
We haven't found it yet, but we will.
Our nursing home that was destroyed had 144 residents.
It's going to be, it's going to be finished.
The new one will be finished in this next month.
Oh wow.
And so we'll, we'll, we'll bring in a hundred twenty two new residents that have been dispersed
back home.
And that's going to be very important.
They're the second largest employer in the city.
Oh wow.
Our city is only 28 hundred people.
So right there on I 35 15 miles north of the wake of.
And you cut right through the middle of it if you're going down 35.
And right there if you're going from Austin to Dallas,
you're going to see it.
Yeah.
And so, and so that's happening to the, the, the, the,
Exah 353 if I'm not mistaken.
You got it man.
You've been there.
You've been there.
I love West.
You've been there.
But the school, the school should open spring of next year.
Walls are coming up.
So they're going to have a beautiful new school.
And so the streets, which was my concern, the streets utilities are being under construction right now.
That's going to be next summer.
Before that, we'll be completed 87 of the 120 homes demolished.
We'll rebuild.
Wow.
So we have, we've re, you know, the neighborhood has come back.
We've got a long way to go.
But the people of West are the most strong, resilient people in this world.
And, and that's what I'm so very proud of.
And that's what Mr. Garrick highlighted I think in his documentary is the spirit and,
and the strength and the determination of those people that lived in that town through that audio.
Was this the, was tonight the premiere?
Tomorrow at, at the Texas Theater.
Oh, it's going to be tomorrow at those nights.
It's one thirty tomorrow afternoon.
At the, at the very historic Texas Theater.
The Oswald Theater.
Yes.
It's a beautiful place.
I get to sit in the Oswald City.
I've been, I've been told.
I got that.
Okay.
It's a gorgeous theater.
The first time last year.
I've been there.
But yes.
Beautiful.
The American tomorrow at one, one thirty.
And Mr. Garrick should be commanded for, for his devotion.
Have you seen it?
I've seen bits and pieces.
That's about it.
He did interview me.
You know, I took part in the interview process with, among, a lot of other people.
And, and part of that was that he was, he's the Jimmy Garrick.
He's not a producer from Dallas.
He's a home tamboy.
And so people are a little bit more app to talk to him.
And, and explain their, you know, their feelings.
And I think that, that comes out in that movie.
And that adds an added layer to it too.
And it's somebody who's local who knows that town and has known that town for years
and years and years and years and years.
And his daddy was the fire chief and, you know, he was the fire.
You can ask him when he had, he's a, he was a fire, a mascot.
Nice.
Years ago when he was like six years old.
And so he has, he has deep roots there.
So I think it's going to show in that documentary.
And there's also been a lot of new things in West.
I've noticed the last two times I've gone through.
A lot of new buildings being built right there on the interstakes.
There are a lot of schmooktacks as they have a great sausage product and main collages too.
And so now we got John both the East and West side.
We got you coming in, don't.
So, you know, if you're coming through West, you got, coming and going.
But, oh, obviously.
Isn't the big festival coming up too?
West Fest is Labor Day.
Oh, something is happening.
For some reason, I thought it was a moral thing.
No, it's Labor Day.
In December, Labor Day, we can hot and dry, remember.
But that's an annual event that's been going on for about 30 years.
And that's a, a huge check festival.
Our community is a check community that was, you know,
most of the residents came up from Czechoslovakia.
Came through Galveston and then settled in the West area.
And that's how we became a little niche there of Czech community.
And a very, very strong community.
And one thing that I really, really loved is after this happen,
how many people came from so many places to, to pitch in.
You know, I have some friends that are first responders.
And they're like, it's my day off.
I'm going down to West because they need us down there.
And it's, it's that pride in your fellow man.
It's that pride in your profession.
Yeah, you know, the humanity that was shown in the last two years
for West, you know, really, really makes me, makes me proud.
Because we did have, we had, we had group youth groups there every week,
every week to the summer of 13 and the summer of 14.
And still a schedule for this year, just picking up rocks.
Wow.
And doing whatever they needed to do to fix that town.
And so it was a true community spirit.
It was a community spirit.
It was a, you know, a project that everybody pitched in.
Nobody said, you know, I'm, I'm going to do this.
Everybody just went for the common good, common cause.
And that's what happens when everybody goes to the common cause.
It works and you succeed.
Well, we're also joined by the man you were just talking about.
Here's Mr. Jim Garrett.
Jim Garrett, say hello to everybody.
Hi, hi, guys.
The guy of thank you for joining us, Mr. Mayor.
It was an honor to have you here.
And I'm sure I'll be in your town very, very soon.
We were just talking about how West has gotten quite a bit of my money over the last few years.
I can't drive through West and not stop.
Yeah.
The check stop is I should own stock in that place.
Yeah.
But you are the director of the day West shook Texas.
Yes.
How are you feeling right now?
Well, if you know what is exciting.
It was a race to the end.
The.
I had, I had, I had, I had planned to go do film festivals after this.
But this one, it came up a little quick.
And I had a friend in the festival and and I sent him a short cut of it.
And they chose it.
So we had a turn of 38 minute film into 60.
Wow.
Yeah.
So it.
I didn't get to join the festival too much because we were still finished in the film.
So tomorrow is the premiere.
Yes.
Wow.
I didn't get to see a pre-screening yesterday at the theater.
Is that not a beautiful moment?
No.
And for those of you that don't know and Mr. Mayor said in earlier, and is the theater where
Lee Harvey Oswald was captured by the Dallas Police.
And it is still a theater.
Yeah.
Last year, I went there to see a space battleship Yamada was my first time ever in there.
And I was like, this is what I remember a theater being.
Well, this was going to get you because the very, I've been the film business for almost
30 years.
The first project I tried to get people to donate time on that idea was to save the Texas
theater in 1990.
Really?
Yes.
And my crew threw in.
Panavision gave me the cameras.
Codec gave me the film.
And we shot a period piece there to help save the Texas theater.
And it was kind of a book in here.
Yeah.
And so did you, did you kind of do the happy dance a little bit when they were like,
I want to show the Texas theater for you.
Yeah.
Nobody.
It was a kind of, I had told you by the story yet.
It was basically, you know, just a few filmmakers that do know because it goes way
back.
So you actually had it originally as a 38 minute feature.
I had 38.
I was going the whole plan in my mind.
My dad was the fire chief for 30 years.
And I knew these people.
And I wanted to paint the people of West to have a voice.
But then, is more so.
I don't think people got to know how big this disaster was.
What it did.
The different sides of life they're attached because the most new stories or the
audience talking in the resort.
The damage and the destruction and the death.
That was it.
But the students, I mean, it's going down the line.
The priest that gave 10 funerals in a row.
It was signed up for this stuff.
You know, these were his parishioners.
It was big.
It was big.
And it needed to be heard from them.
And so my whole plan was, I need to get a bunch of eyes to see this.
I was going to say, oh, that's me.
That's my hometown because it's a farmer community.
And there's hundreds of them around.
There's thousands of United States.
And it's a farm community has to have fertilizer.
But in this case, we can figure out how to co-habitate.
And nothing had been done.
And I think it was my dad telling me in my head.
I needed to do the right thing.
And that was it.
Of course, they're all my friends.
So I had all the access, which other people didn't have.
I chose not to have a voiceover in it, which makes it a lot more brilliant.
Really?
Yeah.
It had to be their story.
So to keep something that compelling.
And I had 38 tight minutes.
When I submitted, I'll gave it to him.
And they challenged me to do, it had to be 60.
And it's my editor right over there.
Then I threw it on.
We all worked together.
This whole film, the, again, since I've been doing it that long here in Dallas.
And obviously, I've gotten favors before.
I was, this was my third one.
And panivision.
Sure enough, they came to my call.
All of my friends came to my call.
And it was done.
It literally is all donated to come down and do this.
We were talking earlier.
I remember where I was and what I was doing.
And I saw, I saw the first thing I saw was from Twitter.
Uh-huh.
I was working nights back then.
So it was fairly quickly after it happened that I saw the first picture.
That was sent by Tim Callashop, local sportscaster.
He was on around the horn on this piano.
Right.
And he was talking about it on around the horn.
How this thing had happened.
And how, you know, we were all like, if you drive through that town, you know, west.
Yeah.
And sure.
It was just that moment that it settled in that it's like, this just had like,
it took me a minute to just fully comprehend what had just happened.
And to see like we were talking with Mr. Mayor, how many communities came out
and gave their time and their efforts.
A lot of people talk about Texas pride.
And in some cases, yes, it can get a little lot of control.
But the other thing you have to understand about Texas is Texas takes care of itself.
Yeah.
There's something to be said when there's a traffic jam going into the city to land aid.
Yeah.
Rather than a bunch of people pass the evening.
Absolutely.
That's true.
That's what happened.
And the amount of, I wanted to honor, also the vault in this whole film.
What a volunteer fireman is because people don't know these guys.
They don't get paid.
Yeah.
And they risk their lives, you know, and here is the case.
But the amount of fire departments that came in because their fire department was gone.
So they had to come and each one of them every week a new fire department would come and cover
the town of west.
They'd bring their fire trucks in because there was no more left for west.
And the firemen, they were pretty pretty much devastated.
And they needed to take care of themselves.
So there was Jesus.
I think you're 60 of them.
And that's what I scrolled on the end.
And then I wanted to honor firemen just in general.
The first responders, they risked their life.
I've always said, if I ever become a mayor of a large major city, there's three priorities.
Fire, police, teachers.
Everybody else comes second.
Absolutely.
And I think at times it gets taken for granted.
Yeah.
So you get the premier tomorrow night where else is it going to play?
Because I know there's going to be one of the people that want to see this documentary.
Okay.
So my plans were to that no one is business enough, or at least enough, that if I played enough festivals,
I'd be able to get distribution for it.
And as long as I got it on national broadcast cable, I'm going to get eyes because again,
the goal was this has to be seen and people I didn't find with it.
And then stand up and say, hey, let's talk about this.
And that's what it is.
And so this was the first one.
I was not.
My plans weren't already ready to start this.
And by editor, it helped take the story of this funny thing.
And I said, look, I've got a friend there.
I'm going to submit it.
And my friend said, now it has to be bedded.
And they said to L.A. to the judges.
And I said, okay, if they take it, we've got to hug her down because we're also.
We got.
He was working a lot more than I was.
And so I couldn't ask him to lose money.
I could ask people for free, but not.
No, no, I could because I wouldn't want anybody to ask that of me.
Because break even's a win.
So he was working.
But it was only him that I knew I needed to have to pull off no voice over.
And let me tell you, it's different to hold people's attention.
And when you just have to see it, you'll understand.
Oh, yeah, I totally know you're coming from.
I watched the documentary a couple of years ago.
About the, it's the day that that OJ took off.
It was an ESPN documentary.
And there was three different sports stories going on that day.
Yeah.
And the way they structured it.
Like, it's not even interviews.
The entire thing was just news clip after news clip after news clip.
So to not have, number one, to not have narration.
Number two to not have interview footage.
Just to watch everything unfold.
I found that thing.
Hey, that's really hard to hold that attention.
And I did, I relied not on the news clips because I could actually get.
Right.
It's been a long time.
And now there was one I had to have.
And that was KCEN.
They called the bloody doctor.
And he was the one.
Right.
With the blood on his face.
But I was trying to get this done for the first anniversary.
That's obviously I had two big plans here.
Yeah.
And I was supposed to have it done for there.
But because the TV stations were doing dog their own documentary.
I couldn't getting assistance from it.
So I just found a way not to even use it.
It didn't have to.
These stories are compelling because you're hearing them tell exactly what happened to them
at all during this time.
And they all flow as parallel to when it comes up to the explosion.
Very moving.
And what I really, really dig is you are from there.
Like you are a product of West.
And so you have that emotional stake in it that I think is going to give it that extra
layer of it that we were talking to the mayor about it earlier as well.
Well, what it did is, again, I've been doing this my company's 24 years old.
I've been doing this for almost 30 years.
And that I'm always my worst critic.
This one, brother.
You ain't lying.
So this one, hey, laying in bed and saying, what if?
That's painful.
And that lasts for a long time.
This one I had to do it.
Yeah, I had the access.
These are my best friends.
So that made it easier.
They were comfortable.
But the pressure I put on myself to make sure I got this works was always probably just on me.
But I also got to my dead end up.
He was at the state, honored him as firefighter of the year in 93.
And he was whole heavy in training.
He was on the governor's board for training for the governor's board for following to your farm.
And there's four of them.
And he was hand-picked.
He lived to breathe this stuff.
And so it kind of gave me a chance to pay just a little bit of homage in a sort of way.
And we might have gotten some information about you from the mayor too,
that maybe you were a mascot for fire department.
Yes.
Yeah.
And there's threads throughout this whole thing.
And it has ties everywhere.
Which all the way to I've had done a lot of films for the American Heart Association for training first responders.
And they were done in 13 different languages.
Well, I couldn't afford to get a house to burn here.
So I called my dead west.
And I had this 2006.
Too far trucks there.
I had them shooting the wall.
Oh, nice.
I had a farm and coming out holding a little girl.
I had set all over him and look up in the camera.
And that was the mayor that I used for the talent.
Oh, wow.
And those two far trucks were blown up in the explosion.
So figured it out.
And that was and see how these threads go.
Okay.
And so that's it.
The end of the film.
I went and called American Heart.
Can I use the clip.
And that's what I've given thanks to the other fire department's help.
It was perfect.
Where else is the film going to go?
Well, what's I take a breather?
Now we'll find out what film festivals are left.
But there's some good ones.
And that's what I've planned to do.
So it'd be a while for it.
Get some TV.
It will get on TV.
Okay.
So let's let's find the sky for it.
Okay.
If you had your brothers.
Huh?
Who airs it on television?
HBO films would be my first choice.
Oh, they're so good.
Yeah.
POV is my second choice.
And that's a PBS.
Yes.
That's a natural.
This is point of view from the end.
Absolutely.
But I knew it would get on history channel learning channel, you know, all those.
Discovery channel.
And that will give me the eyes.
Mm-hmm.
Then I'll feel like I've done something.
I would.
I think I think you hit the nail on the head with HBO documentaries.
Because they're they get it.
Yeah.
They embrace that.
You know what they do.
You're exactly right.
Yeah.
And that's what it is.
Because you got to get the realness.
You know, you can make a cookie cutter type.
That's not the real, the realness.
And that's what I think.
I really, really hope that you get that distribution because that would be.
It's a story that that I don't think enough people know about.
They know what happened, but they don't know everything around it.
And West is such a beautiful little town that.
It's like I said, I stop there every time I go through that area of the state.
Because I'm in a band and we do prison ministry.
So we go down to Gatesville a lot.
And I tell my guitar player when we drive down there.
Look, you have to understand.
West is happening.
Yeah.
Because it's usually like four in the morning when we're driving down there.
Because we have to get there for early service.
24.
Yeah.
That's it.
She stopped his weight in there for me.
And even my wife, when we go down to see her parents on the San Antonio,
she knows we're stopping at exit 353.
This is happening.
Just get right with it.
That's right.
You know, there's.
What do you said is this nice little sleepy town.
There's so many of them that.
I'm afraid my whole thing was that this is going to get the cans going to get
kicked down the road on this because nothing's been done about it.
And somebody's got to figure it out because you learn through your experiences.
And this can happen again if you don't do anything.
And not do anything is not an answer to me.
Agreed.
And especially now this being the two year anniversary.
It's it's just.
It's still fresh to me.
And I mean, like I said, I remember where I was when I found out.
And is when I heard, especially when I heard it was west, it was, you know,
and the first picture I saw that Kalashop put up was from the Czech stop.
Yeah.
It was standing right out in front of the Czech stop.
I was just like, I could see the Sonic sitting right there.
I knew the Bush's chicken was right behind it.
You know, and I'm so glad that you did this film.
I'm so, so happy.
You know, what's going to be a good thing.
And I didn't know this as I was doing it.
But what I found out that other people in west didn't know the other stories
that that we're raised not to share our pain.
We're givers.
You know what?
I like that could be raised in a better town.
That they, the, the values that they, that they had still about right and wrong.
So finding out that nobody else, they didn't know each other's stories.
That this is what's going to do.
Now that the dust has cleared and settled, you know, they're messed up.
And, and the, I think they're going to open up tomorrow.
I've got a big, I've got to check throw down after the,
Oh, the three bikearies are bringing stuff up.
But I think people are going to talk about,
Oh, my plan.
But I think these people are going to share their stories.
And they're going to be able to release now because you need to.
If you don't, it stays in you.
And, and, and they're all their people.
Is there any other projects that you're getting ready to work on that you want to talk about?
All about shameless self promotions.
Well, you know what?
I need to rest.
I can't tell you.
Go to this.
I didn't get to join the festival.
No, no, no.
And I wish, but it's all right.
They challenged me.
But in my interest right there, he could even tell you more.
Yeah, we're, we're.
You just want to take some time off after this.
Yeah, just don't, no, just a little bit.
Oh, yeah.
Give me a couple of days to sleep.
And then look at the other festivals and see which was the inner, you know, I can.
But websites and any social media that you want to.
There actually is is called that you just go to the day westshiptexas.com.
And that's everything that they need is there.
Well, it pretty much is as much as I stuck up there.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Is there any other social media Facebook Twitter?
There is a Facebook.
And I think it's, well, there is.
Now, I don't know if it's up yet.
I'm telling you, this is all going on at the same time.
Because you just found out you had to get this all done.
Because we want to make sure our audience gets the chance to to support this film.
Anyway, they can.
Well, you know, I couldn't pass up this date and having knowing my friend James Faust and just thinking.
A high quality human being, by the way.
Well, and it goes further that I was sitting on a hot seat because I didn't make it the last anniversary.
So, you know, and people in west, they didn't, I wish they were yelled at me.
But they, they hit me with friend, they, they smile.
They didn't say, you know, well, when are you going to finish?
They, they hit me with kindness.
So, and that's, but that's also the brilliance of the Dallas International Film Festival.
And we talk about this all the time.
We talked about it a lot last Friday night.
And we, you can't say enough what quality people are involved in this thing.
Well, you know what?
I have a chose to not be in the long form side.
I did one of commercial music videos.
I've got tons of statues.
I've never been treated like this.
I've been one ton of the festivals, just not on this side.
I agree.
No, these guys and I had made a point to tell them.
But what I was trying to say was that the city of west, you know,
it's taken you a year, but where's your film?
They never asked me that.
This, from James doing this being able to happen.
It exonerates me with my home town for being late.
Because it's the backyard.
They get to be able to see it.
I'm getting a message here.
I need to check.
I can say two if you let me do that right now.
I don't know where is current city.
Somewhere outside of Corpus Christi, apparently a very similar incident.
It actually, it was Texas city.
And I'll tell you, because the,
Is this like right now?
Yes.
This happened right now.
This is a current county sheriff's office.
It's closed highway 181 in both directions.
Just north of current city due to a major fire at a shale yard.
Apparently, that's where they dispose of oil.
As of 6pm, the roads remain closed.
Well, ironic on the two year anniversary of west.
Very likely this happened.
Very.
Well, I saw, and I don't know people even know,
Because we've got to always look at your past to be able to predict your future.
On the right now.
And that the, there was the same disaster as the whole ship blew up
That was full of nitrate that wiped out Texas city.
And I mean, there was, I want to say either 500 or 3000 dead.
500 of your minimum.
It wiped out the whole town.
And this was in the 40s.
But it was nitrate.
All right.
So we know what it can do.
Oh, absolutely.
So it's time to figure this out.
And we're also joined by one of our favorite
As people in the entire world.
Yes, that would be you.
The great Devon Pike has joined us on the show.
Hello, sir.
I could have sworn there's somebody's snuck up behind me.
Devon, going to be hanging out with us all night on the other side.
You didn't say as long as you want to.
If you like.
It's, well, no.
But who it's there?
My bad.
My best friend.
No, I will then go hang out with you.
He took the total story.
No.
No.
And this is how far we go back.
We had our totals taken out together at five years old.
You and the mayor.
No, be in the mayor.
He still has issues.
But I got the ice cream first.
No.
No.
This is true.
And you know what?
I got it.
I think our dad's got a two-for-one.
That has to reason we did.
This is West.
There we are.
Go enjoy the eating sir.
We're looking so much.
Thank you for doing this film.
No, thank you.
You know what?
Thank you.
It's our honor to have you.
You know enjoy the evening.
Devon.
Welcome, sir.
It's good to be.
I didn't miss this one bit.
That's a lot.
That's absolutely lie.
I'm sorry.
I look lying.
You live for this stuff.
I'm so full.
Hello sir.
I'm taking a break for a minute.
I was very eaten downstairs.
A bundle.
It's dinner time down there.
We did miss a TV headline.
And I don't know how much this is going to mean to you sir.
But when I saw this headline today,
we actually made IMDB's front page.
For the last 53 years.
Univision has had a show called Savito Hicante.
Yeah.
That takes up your entire Saturday.
It's like one.
It's a three and a half hour block.
A combination of...
It's a variety show on steroids.
It really is.
It's a bucket of shit.
You ended up doing this all this.
It's actors.
It's musicians.
It's political commentary.
It's everything.
And it is ending.
Yeah.
It's ended up like the 53 years.
It's like the pressure I was ending.
Yeah, I mean.
And I read that the headline today,
and I was like, I remember this from Spanish classes.
Because when I was in high school,
they always talked about, you know,
You have to watch the Spanish channels to help sharpen your skills, and they always talked about Sabato Gante.
Sabato Gante was basically a Martian therapy.
Yeah, that was number one real Montana was growing up there.
Oh, I doubt it.
But it's, you know, and it's literally translates to Big Saturday.
Like that's literally what it translates to.
And so I thought that was worth mentioning on the show because that's kind of a big deal.
It's not just kind of a big deal. Actually, it is really a big deal.
That's a cultural, I mean, three generations of univision viewers grew up.
Absolutely. On that show, where everybody huddled around the TV, and now that it's going away, what takes its place?
I mean, it's, it's kind of mind blowing.
And then they have so much programming on that network too.
And also read today, Chad, much of a pay attention.
Okay.
Wake up, Chad. Did you read the Blade Runner news today?
No.
It broke yesterday.
Okay.
And the funny thing is, I'm watching the livestream of the aftermath, you know, from the Force Awakens trailer.
And you've got Devon Farachi from badass digest Peter Shredda from slash film.
A couple other like high powered geeks that we're going to break down the trailer.
And where they're getting ready to go to him, you can see Farachi on his phone going,
Oh my god.
Ryan Gosling just got signed to Blade Runner too.
Yep.
Really?
God willing.
Will be.
I'm reading that he's, is he playing the lead?
I don't believe anything until this actually goes.
I don't believe what film it happens.
I, I'm with you.
I'm with you.
It's got forward momentum.
Harrison Ford has committed to being somewhat involved.
It won't be a lead thing.
Ralph Garmin has ruined Harrison Ford.
That was what he said.
I think better that.
I think we had a chance.
I, I, I, I'm going to go back to the Force Awakens a lot.
And while I'm here.
And I'm going to play.
I'm going to play the trailer over on the big screen.
Um, for eight months from tomorrow.
John Boyega.
They, they, they, they bring out Daisy Ridley John Boyega and Ozor.
Oscar Isaac.
Um, after they, um, had some time with JJ Abrams with Kathleen Kennedy.
The CEO of Lucasfilm.
And Boyega says that he, um, for on one of the days that he knew that he was working
with Harrison on set.
Brings out this, and your, and your collector.
So you know which one I'm talking about.
It's a two and a half foot tall master.
Figure of Han Solo in the Stormtrooper outfit.
And he brings that on set and says Harrison, would you mind signing this?
And Boyega in, in on stages.
I don't know.
It's pretty weird.
So he's even, even Harrison's grumpyness, even though he wasn't on stage yesterday.
I mean, because everybody knows that Harrison just a grumpy bastard.
And I, I take pride in this.
When he was in town for desperate measures.
The, the legal film that he had remembered.
It was a good flick.
It was a decent flick.
I'm kind of said they dumped it in January.
Because I think I think it deserved more than it got.
But Harrison's a grumpy bastard in the movie.
And he's a grumpy bastard.
Pretty much anywhere nowadays.
When you, but he's getting any younger in the entire junket.
Because it was a junket interview with a bunch of us, you know,
bloggers in the Gulag who, you know, got our FaceTime with Harrison.
Oh, you guys know.
It's a freaking Gulag.
Why do you think I got out?
Um, but through the entire junket.
I am the only person who got him to laugh.
Really?
And laugh out loud.
I have it on tape.
And I listen when I, when I start to feel down about myself.
Nice.
I'm just, what did you say?
I said, um, my question was,
it's not just a perception that you are not playing nice guy.
Characters anymore.
But I think that you're actually doing this to get people off of your case.
He says, you might actually have a point there.
And I'm just watching him twiddle his earring, which is basically his sign for
I hate all of you.
And I wish you would all die in a fire.
Well, Harrison Ford badass.
All of it's a bit badass.
Not gonna do it.
Like anybody else who can successfully crash land a plane.
In a golf course in front of two doctors.
I say, and if you're looking for a doctor, he's got two of them right in front of him.
Why we've got you here.
Yes, sir.
Let's talk about next month.
Yes.
This is your baby.
Go six weeks from now as part of fan expo Dallas out at the Dallas convention.
I'm sorry, the K belly Hutchison Dallas convention center.
Just down the street, we are holding the second Saturday night.
Shindig at Gilly's Dallas twice as big as was the first time we had it.
Shad and I will be there.
You chat and help him out.
And your expertise is extremely appreciated and necessary.
It is always our honor to help you, sir.
The returners, which is a really great video game music band out of Austin.
Our headlining.
Music from Kadesh flow.
Dance sets from Buck wild in the pistolettes.
We're very excited about.
We love Buck and we love the pistolettes.
We're very excited to see you.
I'm working up a number with Buck.
Buck and I are going to do it.
It's actually going to be really tricky.
Nice.
Yeah.
Please let it be all cried out.
I don't think we came up.
Only if he wears a Jerry Crow.
That's all.
Do you want me to wear a Jerry Crow wig?
I want Buck to wear a wig.
Oh, by the way.
Well, let me get this last bit.
The centerpiece for it from my perspective is a live on stage.
Recreation of the MTV classic from the late 80s early 90s remote control.
I'm so excited about this.
Oh, I have some special guests too.
That we're not allowed to talk about.
Well, we're still working on some of them.
But I'm extremely hopeful for that.
By the way, poor went out for Johnny Camp.
We lost really empty today.
What?
Yeah.
And today was my payday.
We did just get paid in his Friday night.
Johnny Camp passed away.
Wow.
Yeah.
There's there's 90 people that get that reference.
And that's it.
Yeah.
I used to go to my barn.
The other half needs to go to yours.
You're exactly your right answer.
Joining us right now.
Jordan Aldridge, writer, director, documentary called in progress.
Welcome, sir.
Right now, Mike runs everybody here.
Can you hear me?
Yeah, much better now.
All right.
Can you hear yourself better now?
No, not quite yet.
Oh, I'm trying to figure what's going on here.
Did you come and disconnect it?
You're connected.
That's well.
You guys can hear me.
That's good.
Tell us about in progress.
So it's called see you at the top.
And it is in progress.
Oh, as you have a documentary.
See, when Don wrote this, he wrote in progress.
He's documentary.
I thought that was the name of it.
That's clever.
You said we're going to documentary right now.
I like that right now.
Okay.
I was called in progress.
Tell me about it.
It's a meta documentary.
It's about a friends of mine.
We just graduated from film school.
And we're making a documentary as we make a documentary about ourselves.
Okay.
That is so 21st century.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I might not have the right time.
That is really awesome.
How far through it are you?
So we did a 25 minute version.
And submitted that to Sundance and nowhere else and didn't get in.
And knew that the plan was to keep working on it.
Well, we had a more base idea.
We were going to copy.
We're all from Dallas.
And we went to UNT for a day.
Okay.
And we were actually restraight, retracing the short film
Bottle Rocket.
All the places West Anderson shot.
Right.
Doing the same scenes and the same spots.
Line for line.
And then we were making documentary about that.
And we're going to try and enter.
Ideally, we're going to enter the short film to like Sundance and
see what would happen.
We just did the exact same short film 20 years later.
But we entered the whole documentary story behind it as well.
We're still working on it.
You talk about meta and it triggers something.
I don't know if you saw this.
But a couple of weeks ago, funny or die.
Did a deal where Michael Bolton plays Michael Bolton in office space.
That's clever.
I did see that actually.
Yeah.
And I'm just like, where did Michael Bolton come from?
Like, it's like all of a sudden he's everywhere.
He was on last week tonight with John Oliver this week, which was brilliant.
He developed a sense of humor.
Finally about it.
Because there was a wild.
There's about an eight year stretch where you could not bring up office space around him.
You could not talk about how everyone thinks that he really.
Yeah, sincerely.
And at some point somebody just kicked him in the ass and said, dude.
It's a joke.
Just lighten up and embrace it.
And here's the next phase of your career.
So you start seeing him do commercials.
You're starting to see him on like he said John Oliver.
I don't know about the American greetings thing.
You can go to American greetings website.
Oh, God.
And you can make your own Michael Bolton singing a birthday card.
He went to a studio and we recorded all these names and all the all the dates.
And you can put and there's actually a special message you can put through to.
Below the date matter.
Because he'll actually say today's your birthday.
It's it's the 17th day of April.
And there's one special message that you can only do.
And I can't say the message on this show, but remind me later.
And I'll tell you.
But this guy in 365 dates.
He's saying each month and then he's just saying 30 days.
And so they just say 40.
40.
40.
40.
40.
Right.
You actually.
There's there's drill down.
It's all drill down.
You pick the name.
You pick the date.
You pick the special message.
And it's.
And right in the middle of it.
He like inhaled helium and sings today is your birthday.
It's it's my.
When did he get a humor transplant because honestly God, this was not him.
I probably want to get rid of Nicolas Sheridan.
But back to you, Mr. Aldridge.
I love the fact that you know, you didn't wait.
You're like, you know what we're out of film.
Let's, we're out of film school.
Right.
Let's just do something with this now.
Was it a waiting for the game to come?
Us, you went to the game.
I appreciate it.
That was the idea.
I see.
And that's.
Do you know when you want to start putting it out there as more of a full-length
document?
We're actually going to keep cutting it.
So we're going to try to do a 12-minute version next.
Oh.
And actually, I think I overheard you guys talking.
You guys saw the the Raiders film.
Yes.
That literally I watched out of the, one of my buddies.
We were working on it.
And then we were like, we need to finish this.
And we need to make it much faster and much more.
Faster and more test.
Kill your darlings.
Kill your darlings.
Kill your darlings.
Wow.
Jack here.
Yes.
We were also talking earlier about Oscar Isaac.
Yes.
X Machina comes out today.
Oh.
It is wonderful.
It's amazing.
It really, really is good.
Everybody's going balls out for the Force Awakens.
And rightfully so.
Age of Ultron.
Max Mad Max Fury Road.
Some people are even digging Terminator Genesis.
People need to be paying attention to X Machina because it is a pure sci-fi film.
And it's got that energy of 70 sci-fi to it.
And it's really so smart.
And it's so smart.
And that Alicia Vickender is amazing.
She is like, I saw her in 7th son.
I was like, okay, she's the love interest or whatever.
In this, she absolutely shines.
Yeah.
Absolutely shines.
Now, you're a director.
You're out of film school.
I just heard the Thompson twins coming out of Devon Speakers and everything's
pretty happy.
Do you prefer to write your own material or is it better for you to direct
somebody else's material?
I've honestly only directed my own material.
I haven't got to that point yet, I guess.
Though you were doing the bottle rocket things.
So, and that in that regards,
definitely, well, that was more kind of like just exploring
and discovering from it.
I would love to.
I think kind of, as long as it's like a collaborative process where you
could feel like you could take something and add to it.
And I assume no one's doing it unless it is.
So, you know, that actually sounds really fun.
Actually, it'd be really cool if you guys have written something.
Like, hey, Jordan, take this and add to it and take it to a place.
And he back and forth about it.
Yeah, that'd be a real fun thing to work on.
Because I've always found it interesting when
directors write their own scripts.
Like, X Machina, Alex Garwin actually wrote
a script and this was his first film that he directed.
And I've always, I've always said it when we review these things
that it's almost like, as a director when you write the material,
the visions already there.
So, you know what you want versus somebody else's material
where you have to interpret on a certain level.
Um, I just, to me, that would seem easier, but I'm just a
slub with a podcast, you know, for now, for now.
I mean, I've never been in that position.
And I've always been fascinated by the writer director.
Okay.
Well, yeah, I'm never really seen that process.
How are you talking about like,
so they get a screenplay and they're like direct that.
Versus, I wrote this screenplay.
Kevin Smith in his heyday versus somebody like
Spielberg who just, who directs the scripts that he gets.
I mean, I guess that's where the real talent comes in,
where you can just take something that's already written
and bring it to life like that.
But at the stage, at your stage in your career,
I think it would almost be where one of your cohorts from film school,
somebody who is on the screenwriting track says,
I don't have the director's eye.
I've got this great script.
I trust your vision.
Could you help me to make this a reality?
Here's the thing about film school.
I know it's always strange.
I put the ball on the tee and I wait for him to come with the bat.
No one in film school is on a track yet.
Everyone wants to write, direct,
if not act and it chooses their actor in it.
And that's how we got Tommy was told.
What they've been thinking about.
I mean, it's what they've been talking about with their friends for a long time
or telling their parents about, I guess, I don't know.
But yeah, they've been picturing it for a long time.
And they just want to get it out there all together.
And then yeah, usually I think kind of where I am right now,
a couple years out, you see people kind of like,
well, I am actually good at writing.
Or I am actually good at just acting.
And I know all the other parts,
but yeah, that's the one I want to focus on now.
And I'll trust the other people that want to focus on that
because they are good at it.
So I am seeing that develop
and just when friends and fellow graduates,
sure kind of picking the one they're going with.
I guess there was, I would say,
I always said that there was less ego
when I was in film school,
but I know for a fact that's not the case.
You have to have a certain bit of ego
to be able to put yourself out there.
Absolutely.
And when you submit your first short
to any film festival,
not just Dallas here in Asheville,
but I mean, I can't even,
the middle and no,
the U.S. film festival or whatever,
whatever, municipal, you know,
the any town USA film festival.
The, the Ask Scratch USA film festival.
That's a New Jersey, isn't it?
It, it, it, it, it, it all it was when I lived.
But yeah, it, I, I, I totally get that.
I, I, I, I, I, I, I wanted to know if it was different.
Yeah, because I, I, I, I, I, I also went to UNT film school.
Okay.
I, I did not, I, I, I was a journalist,
which is the thing.
So I knew that film was always something
I was going to be passionate about
and make my own eventually.
But writing was where my strengths lie.
Right.
Right.
So journalists, right?
Well, I'm in the same boat.
I was going to see one to universal Missouri for journalism.
Before I transferred to UNT to do film and video.
And, uh, I think documentary is really my passion.
More, I'm finding that.
That was going to be my next question.
It's where is your bread and butter is is is documentary.
Like, where is that your comfort zone?
Oh, I think so.
I mean, I, I, we shot for whole summer and had a 500 gigabytes of footage of us doing stuff.
Wow.
It was so much fun to watch through all of it.
And really pull out the story and kind of find,
hey, we can put things together this way or this way.
You can completely or, uh, yeah, I know that's just way more exciting to me than just,
hey, here's the storyboard.
And here's the script and kind of put it together the way it's supposed to be done.
And I love talking to about film with film people.
Because it's such a great perspective to have being a film geek and being a kid that
all I ever wanted to do was watch TV or watch movies or listen to music.
That's like, that's my thing.
And to have that kind of a level of conversation comes right next question.
What is the one movie that you can't watch in that time?
That you just watch over and over and over again and it's always awesome.
Um, the last one that really like did me an was upstream color.
Okay.
I don't know what that is.
I can honestly, I wouldn't admit that.
It is.
Did you see primer?
I did not.
Okay.
I was, it's the same filmmaker and that's the only other thing.
Yeah.
Compared to, it's an incredibly, um,
it's a Dallas gang.
Yeah.
They have a lorry.
Um, Shankruth.
Shankruth got.
But David lorry edited upstream color.
That's right.
There was a David actually introduced upstream color when we did a sneak of it at the Texas
a while back.
Oh, that's awesome.
Yeah.
It was in seeing it in 35 millimeter was amazing too.
But I don't even know how to explain it.
I said, you need to do it.
Okay.
Well, no.
I will put it on my list.
It turned down the review assignment for because I could not do it just as in words.
It's like the, it's like the Jody Foster line from contact.
No words should have sent a poet.
No words.
Just watch the damn movie.
It's, it's extremely daring.
It does not have a traditional narrative style.
And it is sci-fi with.
It's not space opera.
It's very.
Okay.
It will screw with your head pretty much from the,
from the minute it hits and until five hours after you let the people.
Wow.
Worst in roommates.
Don't think I don't read your feeds there because I do.
You mean the neighbors?
As the neighbors.
That's what it was.
And now we're back to Tommy was though.
I am not going to say Tommy was though in Shane Carruth in the same place.
That is blasphemy.
Favorite guilty pleasure movie.
Oh, man.
Well, and just now that I'm thinking about it the room, I guess.
Yeah.
I haven't seen the neighbors yet or the neighbors.
Yeah.
Is that what it's called?
Yeah.
Don't.
I never did about a five post-ranked on this movie.
I was actually trying to feed them.
So yeah.
I got to be decent friends with Greg Sesterow.
The, the, the co-lead in the room.
Okay.
Along with was out.
And.
Reading the disaster artist.
I actually, the audio book where Greg Sesterow not only tells you how
the room was made incredulously because it is a document on how to not make a film.
If you ever wanted to have a master class in don't do this, that's it.
But on top of that, you learn to speak Tommy was though because nobody does a better
Tommy was though in personation than Greg Sesterow.
So picture in this TV sitcom.
What a great TV.
Where is he?
Oh, my God.
He plays two different characters.
Neither of them are intelligible.
Everybody else is a stereo type.
You have a woman who's running around to bikini for no reason whatsoever.
You have the basketball playing guy who's smoking dope the entire time.
And whatever anybody walks into a room.
They're always asking, hey, kind of bar out 20 bucks.
I made it through two episodes.
There were four when it launched.
They may have put more on Hulu at, at some point.
It is painful.
It's more painful than the room.
It's more painful than Manos the Hands of Fate.
It's more painful than event horizon.
It is more painful than battlefield earth.
It is an exercise in cinema in television terror.
Never.
I value you as a human being too much.
Wow.
Okay, I'm done.
I've seen maybe three of this.
I'm not going to change my answer.
I want to say point break because I have more time to think about it.
But I think with point break that was when I was in college.
My college girlfriend that was our first date was point break.
And you have another reason I hate that film.
Why?
Austin.
The pop culture world series of pop culture try out.
We tried out for the world series of pop culture a few years ago.
And on the written.
Yeah, it was a VH1 had a show where it was three man teens.
That's awesome.
You qualify.
You go to New York and you were on this huge stage.
And what would happen was it was like a round robin kind of thing.
You can only pick one person would come up to the stage based on the category.
And you couldn't use the same person to write it out.
Beat the geek or something.
It was kind of like BTA.
Well, the first question on the written test was where did TNR
character go to college in point break.
Utah State.
He's named Johnny Utah State.
And all three of us were like.
Got nothing.
We went back to the hotel room and I'm like I'm pulling up the script.
Right now.
Because there's no way.
I mean, was that the only question that you missed?
Oh, I missed a couple of them.
Because they lost in the orange bull re-broken legs.
Right.
So like once we got out of the test.
All I could say for the next 20 minutes was just the F word.
That's the only thing that could come out of my mouth.
Loudly while throwing his luggage around.
Like to a room.
Kind of like Keanu Reeves.
When it's decided he's been jumping at the airplane to chase down the pair.
Which is awesome.
Yeah.
I don't know how I feel about them remaking it.
I heard about that.
Again, not believing it until it goes in front of cameras.
I'm not.
There's so many things that are supposed to be the rocky horror remade.
We talked about that last week.
It does not lead.
No.
None of these need to happen.
They didn't need to redo engagement in digit turtles.
They didn't.
I still haven't seen it.
But the majority needs.
It's just buzz.
If it goes in front of cameras, then I'll believe it until then.
I'm not going to get worked up about it.
Is there something they put out there in the buzz?
They're testing the buzz and it builds up.
And they're like, oh, we are doing it.
Exactly.
This is some.
It's a fox supposedly now.
It's the same person tried to float this five years ago at MTV when they were there.
And tried to float it at.
That spike.
Three years prior to that.
The third time break on the VP.
Yeah, right.
Yeah.
So I'm sorry.
I was talking about Rocky Horror.
On point break, that's been in and out of production out of development hell supposedly.
But they can't cast right.
They refuse to.
They can't.
You can't redo Patrick's Waysing.
Right.
Can't redo Keanu Reeves.
Well, you get Keanu again.
Do you can do it?
Do it like a next generation kind of a thing.
Yeah.
You see John Wick.
He's not just on my list.
I've been what dying to see it.
You can sign out right now and go to it.
Somebody was messing with you, sir.
Max.
Max.
I'm very much looking forward to seeing it.
Yes.
And I'll tell you.
I actually watched what I actually watched.
What I actually watched recently.
And it wasn't as bad as everybody told me it was.
Was 47.
It was a good candy bar.
Yeah, not a bad flick.
No.
It wasn't a great flick.
It wasn't a bad flick.
It was a candy bar.
You know what I put that way.
It really was.
There are certain movies that you can.
You can.
It's a seven course meal.
I.
Oh, God.
Terence Mallick.
It's a tree of life.
The tree of life is a seven course meal.
You're going to go to that movie.
You're not going to focus on anything else.
You may not understand it when you walk out of it.
You're hit me explode.
Yeah.
It very well.
But and then there's candy bars where you're going to eat it.
Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
That you're done.
That was.
That was 47.
Yeah.
And it was like everybody crapped all over that movie.
Now.
I think because everybody.
Anybody.
Yeah.
Craps on the movie.
That's fixing to come out.
With.
That the Hasselhoff video that came out today is a part of.
Is that Kung Fu?
Yes.
Kung Fu.
I.
I.
I.
I.
I.
I.
I.
I.
Oh, yeah.
Yes.
This is the one he's style for the one she and this has alhavi video it's there is nothing that is not awesome about this video clips from the movie
right?
Yes, well but it's Hasselhoff singing and in the beginning there are these three
thugs that pull out guns and he's like a cop.
And he goes you guys at permits for those guns.
And the guy takes his skateboard flips it.
And as the car is flying through the air, Hasselhoff jumps out of a car and guns all of a
down and goes licenses.
Did not.
And then they go on it, I don't know,
And I was like, there's nothing that's not awesome.
But they have a giant dinosaur with a giant biking woman.
They were riding the dinosaur.
They made a character riding the dinosaur.
And the fact that your bad guy is the computer.
It's just, I'm like, there's no way I'm not seeing this movie.
It's just not possible.
There's no way I'm sitting through two machetes and not seeing this.
I thought both of those.
And by the way, I loved machete.
And nice segue.
Machete kills again.
His face is coming.
It's happening.
It is happening.
Loves.
I loved both of those films.
So much fun.
Both of those films were.
They're total crap.
They're absolutely crap.
But you know that going here or where that they are crap.
Yes.
And the fact that we saw machete kills at the press screening at the Alamo made it.
That is much better.
The pre-show for machete kills was painfully funny.
Next movie you're looking forward to.
And I'm taking Ultron out of the equation.
Sure.
It's Ultron's a lock.
Right.
What's the next one you're really really looking forward to?
Mad Max Fury Road.
You know what?
He's totally in.
I'm kind of on the fence.
How can you be on the fence?
All right.
You remember Smash TV?
I do.
I do.
When you had like the big power up and you're killing everything in the world.
And you and the commentary goes total carnage.
I love it.
That's what going in through my head.
As I watch the trailers for Fury Road.
The whole film is like that.
It's not just they took the biggest three minutes of action and put it into the trailer.
That's the premise.
Let me know.
And you know.
I'm a big time hard to chase.
I see.
This is my theory for it.
It seems that way.
Is there anything besides action in it?
No.
Okay.
You may be get two minutes of exposition and dialogue.
And the rest of it is a mad dash across the the sands with, oh god.
Now I can't remember the kid's name.
A halt.
Nick Holt.
Oh, that's a beautiful day.
Oh yeah.
I just.
I think the trailer just said voice over at the end maybe.
But there wasn't a person speaking in the trailer.
That was not what I had to deal with.
Master blast a run.
It's botched.
Now I'll be fine.
This is better than that.
It's gotta be.
It's gotta be.
And we don't get Beyonce remaking.
We don't need another hero.
They'll be fine.
But we get Charlie's there and with a fake arm.
And then you know a big fan of Tom Hardy.
Yeah.
Even though I just a lot of time here.
How could a man drive a car?
And I'll be fine.
I'll tell you.
And then Devon so politely came in today and showed us.
And they've actually now officially released the first Batman V Superman, Don of Justice
trailer.
And I would not watch it on shaky cam, but they've actually released it digitally.
So it's out there.
Thanks.
I think March is a weird choice.
March is a weird choice for this film.
It shows that Warner Brothers doesn't know what to do with this movie.
So they tried to launch the marketing campaign.
Yeah.
That said.
Cause in the trailer, I saw I just said 2016.
It's March.
It was originally March.
It was actually wasn't originally April and that's when they decided they're going
to put civil capital America Civil War on the same day and then Warner backed off.
Even though they had the date first, they backed off and said, we'll just back it up
a month.
And I'm like, this is a summer movie, not a spring movie.
But I went off on a rant today about this and I asked you to read your rant today.
You did.
Who ever is working in Warner Brothers's press department who decided to try to drop
trailer on the same day as the Force Awakens deserves to, I don't want to ever say
that if somebody deserves to be fired because I know how hard a job is to get, but they
need to be working in the mail room because they do not be scheduling multi-million dollar
marketing campaign.
Well, it's like I said you, win a week, wait a week, or wait until after Ultron.
There's a space, no, the next week is the time to drop that.
You start teasing it on Monday.
You do the IMAX event on Thursday and you own that space.
Instead, you try to drop a teaser with empty suits.
The teaser for the teaser.
Stupid.
So stupid.
I want to say I saw the trailer and it makes me happy.
Don't get me wrong.
But the teaser's fine.
Okay.
I'm going to go see it.
I'm sure it's going to be good.
I'm right there with you.
I'm worried about the tone.
I don't understand how you take a superhero.
The superhero.
The prototypical, everything is awesome superhero in Superman.
I didn't know what you're going to talk about.
Okay, there it is.
And you alienate him from everyone where no one likes him.
Everybody hates Superman should be the name of this freaking movie.
False God.
He says Batman's better.
Well, that's in the, you saw it.
Okay.
Rain cloud of justice.
Oh, let's see.
What do you mean?
I was like three different versions of the name.
Yeah.
Cloudar of justice.
Scalor of justice.
Scalor of justice.
I think it's going to take off.
Creamous of justice.
Creamous of justice was fun.
And then constipation of justice.
All right.
That's true.
Anything that you want to plug.
Websites, social media.
Go.
This is what we're all about.
Sight shameless self-promotion.
Sir.
At this point?
No.
We're just building connections and meeting people and learning.
Anything I have when I will throw it out there at everyone I can.
I love.
We talked about this all the time.
How much I love the Dallas International Film Festival because you get that great film festival
Feel and they treat everybody like royalty.
We made so many great friends at this festival that they're going to let a couple of
Shlobs that do a podcast broadcast from here.
Are you kidding me?
You know.
Oh, yeah.
Well, I'm not a Lee and James.
I mean, the whole crew.
I mean, I love all them.
They're amazing.
I mean, I've been doing stuff year round with them.
I die.
I'll plug the film society.
I guess.
I mean, growing up in Dallas.
This is such an awesome thing.
I mean, 11 days is nuts to think about.
And I mean, I've been here for most of it.
And I had no idea you could do this much cool stuff in a whole year.
Much less and a whole week here.
Yes.
And it's a well-oiled machine.
This thing moves.
And the fact that it's able to move like it does and everybody's still so wonderful
about the else.
Everything gets done on time, every time.
And you know, you can actually just walk up to the CEO of the Film Festival and he'll just start talking to you.
And he's an amazing dude.
Like we went to the press night last week.
He made it a point to go around and talk to every press person that was there individually.
He remembered us.
He's like, oh, glad to have you guys back this year.
You know, because this is our second year doing this.
When we got our approval, I was like, okay, it's on.
You know, because I love this festival.
I just do absolutely.
I mean, I was covering some films as you know, video for it.
But I would love to just walk into, I mean, even after this, I might just go see a film.
And I really have trust their selection.
I'm going to see something awesome.
And I'm going to like take a whole lot away from it.
I'm probably going to meet someone really important that has a bunch of knowledge about it.
And I'll probably be able to talk to him afterwards.
It's really cool.
So yeah.
It's the brilliance of this thing.
It's my six year involved with the festival and Sarah and James.
I don't know how they do it because they, they are the people, the program, the festival.
Sarah Harris and James Faust live and breathe.
The submissions for this for four months.
And the slate is never, never, ever disappointing.
And for 11 days, neither one of them can walk more than 10 feet.
No, but that was somebody stopping them.
And everything that I've heard people stop in them and just say, how great of a time they're
having and how wonderful this thing is.
And that's what you get when you have people who make films that program of film festival
because they know to make, they don't make or friendly.
We can talk a few more movie headlines unless you, if you got to go.
I'm going to take off, but thank you so much.
Keep us updated on what's going on.
So we can make sure we plug you as much as we can.
It was great meeting you.
Gary, you want to come sit in for a minute.
We'll talk about some more movie headlines.
Wonder Woman Director Michelle McClearin has left the project over creative difference.
Oh, she didn't leave. She was fired.
Oh, I, I, because I, I, I, I, that's the only thing I heard that she left.
She was fired because her scope, what she wanted to do for Wonder Woman was to epic.
It was to broad.
It was too much of a saga.
Is that, that's not what we're going for?
So instead, and now I can't, now I'm blanking on her name.
It was fired off of Thor, the Dark World.
Also a female director, and that started the whole conversation, is there a problem
with hiring women for directing a superhero film, and now I'm blanking on her name.
She had done a game of films episodes or something.
Yeah, several of them.
So instead, they hired her to replace the shell McLaren.
So she is now directing Wonder Woman.
I just, I want it to be good.
That's my thing with Wonder Woman, because I,
Why were avoiding this like the plague is beyond me.
I want this movie to be good so bad,
and I think Galghto looks amazing in the outfit.
Great.
I don't know.
Do you hear about this just wean thing that he's getting sued?
I don't, look.
If you have a successful film,
somebody is going to sue you saying that they stole your story,
and they had it first.
Just wean and Drew got her in being sued for 10 million over the cabin in the woods.
There's a guy that says he wrote this book five years ago,
and he sold his book on the sidewalk on the street,
or wean lives.
So he thinks he needs some cash.
Oh wow.
Jobs wean's like, I just sneezed and made 10 million dollars.
And he can't get more petty Jenkins in.
Yes, that's correct.
She directed Monster.
Yes.
Kung Fu Panda, coming, been moved up to January of next year.
Oh, that's not a good song.
I think about it.
And that was my initial reaction.
By the way, joining us, Gary Murray, didn't introduce you.
Oh, sorry.
Joining us from ceiling film.
And the president.
My text from groups.
Yes.
My, my initial reaction was like yours.
Oh my god.
It's coming out in January.
But think about what came out in January of this year,
which is right now going back and forth with the kings of it,
as my favorite movie of the year.
So everything is awesome.
Paddington.
Everything is good.
That was pretty good.
That was very good.
That was very good.
But this year, this year,
er, this year, this year, this year, this year, this year, this year, which is
one of my, that movie, and I think Chicken Making for the Bob and Tom shows that
it best.
I don't know, how they found a talking pair and put them in a movie but they did.
Oh, yeah, it's amazing.
And that movie is brilliant.
So, I a family movie in January doesn't bother me There's much
now.
When you look at that.

For the kids with a clothes in the hair. Yellow wolf
releases love story
Who's he's one of these TI prodigies. All right, so move on. I say I think if I know if I know if I know who you are
If I could recognize your name, I'll pull ahead and mention it during your release. Yellow wolf. Alabama
Yellow wolf. Why?
Yellow wolf on SNL. Yes, they were absolutely brilliant on the surround. Yeah, they did a great job. Can I just
diverge for a second? Please do whoever they hired to do sound for SNL this year
is killing it. They're doing that. Oh, yes. Oh, yeah, there was about a three year period where they could not
produce live music at all. It sounded the mix was horrible. Either the vocals were tiny or there was too much
bass and it just sounded like ass and they've been doing a amazing job this year. And what sucks is a lot of those
performances were ones that were worthy of owning. You know, but but the production was so bad.
DVD and blue right new releases this Tuesday taken three. Takenist for a girl walk a girl walks
alone at night. Did that not debut here last year? It did. That comes out Tuesday cake which a lot of
people I have not seen yet, but I've heard wonderful things about. I have not because I watched it and I
still have not heard wonderful things about it. The criteria and it was trying to do the whole
surely it's there in monster route by mix. Yeah, sure. Yeah, didn't mark. The criteria in collection
releases the river this week, phenomenal. There's we have like a criterion release like every week
for like the last year. Yeah, it's like a lot of sudden. Yeah, I mean, it's and for those of you that are
fans of such things, the Marine for moving target, starring the Miz in some array. Now, that's still a
WWE. WWE Reflection. Yeah. Well, it's WWE production. Oh, yeah, it's entertainment. Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I knew they did the first one
and regardless of what, what ever wrestler they wanted to try to have acts. And well, Miz is the only
repeat actor because the first one was John Cena, second one was Mr. Mr. Andrew Synermser,
Kenny, depending on who he asked and the last two have been the Miz. So they actually did a theatrical
premiere of it on Wrestlemania a weekend out in out in Santa Clara. Hey, use your audience, man.
Just use your audience. We're ready for next year with Wrestlemania's right down the street. How are they
doing press credits for that? I wonder. Don't think I'm not finding out. Oh, no, no, no, we know the schedule.
We know what the schedule is because we got it all laid out because we're doing the whole shabang.
But I just, it's still amazing. I mean, it took 32 years for them to do it here. Well, did they, I mean,
like with anything else? Do you have a facility that can accommodate the media production? Yeah,
the crowd and the staging and Texas Day. The death star changed everything. Oh, yeah, and that's true.
It's because everybody has to put out a field of time here. I will tell you, I was worried for a
minute that we weren't going to get it because after George Straits set the indoor attendance record,
which was previously held by Vince in Wrestlemania three at the Silver Dome. My concern was,
well, maybe it's not as attractive now to Jerry because he's got the record. But then they announced
it, I'm like, they're probably going to put even more seats in here so they can break it again,
because they will. Oh, yeah, it's Wrestlemania. It's in one of the mechas of professional wrestling
in North America, if not the world. Yeah. So it's going to be very, very interesting. On that note,
we are going to take a pause for the cause because we've gone our almost two hours for our regular show.
You want to know what happens from here? You need to subscribe on iTunes. That's all I'm telling
you because coming up is when we're really getting it because we're getting ready. The FS honors
getting ready to let out and we're going to be talking to some great people. Devon's going to step aside
for just a minute. There's Don. Don, talk to me. I got my running shoes on. Yeah, that you do.
We talked about it since the beginning of the show. You know, we, this is kind of cool. How we,
just earlier we had like a, you know, a new director who's starting out. Yes, we did and we had
Jorge Gutierrez. Yes, we did. I mean, that's the death. You have everything top to bottom. And
these people are just been incredible. We got to take the death again. That's film. Yeah. Have been so
good to us. And what we have tonight, mind up because it's going to be big pickins tonight. Oh, yeah.
If you subscribe to iTunes because I guarantee this next show is going to, we're going to hit it
out of the park tonight. So our next show will our next live show will be a week from Sunday,
but it's also not going to be a regular show because that is the Sunday of WWE Extreme Rules.

Sean comes out. And you know, this line I'm just been incredible. Beautiful facility. Devon's
get ready to carry. Okay, later tonight. It's going to be awesome. There's a guy with the, the, like,
