71) Elf

[00:00:30] In this episode, I'm covering Elf, which is a 2003 Christmas movie directed by Jon Favreau and starring Will Ferrell, James Caan, Joey Deschanel, and Mary Steenburgen.

[00:00:48] This is one of those Christmas classics. I remember when it first was announced and they threw in the trailers, everyone, at least when, or I was, because I was in high school when it came out.

[00:01:04] I think I was a freshman when it came out. And I remember when it first came out, everyone was like, oh, is this another stupid Will Ferrell comedy? And you just ignore it.

[00:01:13] And yeah, for the most part, I did at first. And then when it came to VHS, because that's how long ago it was, my family watched it and it was really good.

[00:01:32] And so I've watched it almost every year since then. And it's become like, almost like a tradition.

[00:01:40] I, up until a certain point, I actually didn't watch it for a few years. And I kind of, like, I didn't like fully forget about it, obviously, because like every Christmas it comes out.

[00:01:52] Well, I mean, like, everyone talks about it. I said it's a Christmas classic. Everyone loves it now.

[00:01:58] And so, like, I sort of forgot about it. It's just, I haven't really watched it.

[00:02:07] But basically, if you somehow don't know what this movie is about, Will Ferrell plays, uh, well, he plays an elf.

[00:02:20] Well, kind of. He's a human. He was, it starts, the movie starts with a baby in an orphanage.

[00:02:29] Santa Claus, Santa comes and was doing the whole tree thing, eating the cookies.

[00:02:37] And then the baby leaves the crib and goes, uh, sneaks into his bag, Santa Claus's bag.

[00:02:46] And I guess he just never looks into the bag again, ever, until he gets home.

[00:02:52] I mean, gets to the North Pole. And then he's like, he steps out and he's like,

[00:02:56] Hey, I'm back, elves. And then they turn around like, oh, there's a baby in the bag.

[00:03:04] How did that get in there?

[00:03:07] And then instead of, you know, taking it back, they named Buddy and just kept them.

[00:03:18] Um, they also just somehow knew that it was from that specific orphanage.

[00:03:28] Because they were immediately like, oh, he must have slept in, slept in at the orphanage.

[00:03:33] And then, yeah, it, uh, if you knew, why did, I, I don't know, I have so many questions about this movie.

[00:03:47] And I, I want there to be like a spinoff sequel thing talking about how, uh, actually I'll come back to that.

[00:03:54] Because I have an idea for a podcast that I don't want to do.

[00:03:59] I don't want to do a podcast like this that I have an idea for.

[00:04:02] But I want someone else to do it.

[00:04:04] Because I would not, I know for a fact I would not be good at it.

[00:04:08] I will come back to that.

[00:04:09] But anyway, so Buddy grows up thinking he's an elf.

[00:04:15] Even though it never occurs to him that maybe he's not.

[00:04:18] Because, you know, the elves are really small.

[00:04:22] They're like little hobbits except smaller.

[00:04:25] And Buddy is, you know, a human.

[00:04:27] And he's human size.

[00:04:29] And he's big.

[00:04:31] And then they, they have, um, there's like a montage of him doing like elf things.

[00:04:37] Like taking a shower.

[00:04:39] And he's like not fitting in the shower.

[00:04:43] And he's like falling off the bed.

[00:04:46] Like I'm surprised the bed even held, held him?

[00:04:50] Holds him.

[00:04:51] And so at one point his quote unquote father.

[00:05:00] Who was, you know, his, uh, adopted father.

[00:05:06] Papa Elf.

[00:05:07] Played by Bob Newhart.

[00:05:10] Uh, he tells him, hey, I need to tell you something.

[00:05:14] I'm not actually your father.

[00:05:22] And Buddy's like, wait, what?

[00:05:25] You're not my father?

[00:05:26] I'm not a real elf?

[00:05:28] And this is why I think they must have done some research into his life or something.

[00:05:37] You know, in, in, in, in universe.

[00:05:39] Not like, oh, for the movie.

[00:05:42] What?

[00:05:42] Because.

[00:05:44] Papa Elf pulls out a photo of Buddy's actual parents.

[00:05:49] It was like, hey, um, the mother died.

[00:05:52] But your father works at the Empire State Building in New York City.

[00:05:58] And it's like, oh, uh, you knew this all along.

[00:06:02] And you didn't, you didn't say or do anything?

[00:06:06] You just kind of kept it to yourself?

[00:06:10] I don't know.

[00:06:11] Um, so, Buddy's immediately like, hey, I'm gonna go to New York.

[00:06:18] I've never left the North Pole.

[00:06:20] What's the worst that kid, yeah, a lot of things happen.

[00:06:24] He, he goes through a bunch of things.

[00:06:30] Ends up in New York City.

[00:06:32] And he, there is kind of a running joke.

[00:06:37] Uh, not a running joke.

[00:06:38] Um, there's a thing that happens three times.

[00:06:41] And it does kind of show the progression of him, like, adapting to the real world.

[00:06:48] Uh, there's this famous shot of him.

[00:06:51] He's, he's going across the street and then he's hit by a taxi.

[00:06:55] That's the first one.

[00:06:57] Uh, the first time he encounters the taxi, he gets hit by it.

[00:07:00] And he's like, oh, sorry.

[00:07:02] And then a little bit later in the film, he goes across the street and he's almost hit by a taxi.

[00:07:09] But he, like, holds up his hand and stops them.

[00:07:12] And then, uh, Buddy, like, still, like, still kind of gets hit.

[00:07:17] Where, like, he doesn't stop in time.

[00:07:19] And he, like, kind of touches him, you know?

[00:07:24] Like, in a way, you know?

[00:07:26] And then the third time he's crossing the street with Zoe Deschanel.

[00:07:30] And then he's, he, like, fully stops it.

[00:07:33] The taxi fully stops before it even comes near them.

[00:07:36] Um, so, like, he goes from the first time he gets hit by the taxi.

[00:07:40] The second one where he almost gets hit.

[00:07:42] And the third time where, like, he's more acclimated to the world.

[00:07:46] And it doesn't hit him at all.

[00:07:48] And he's actually, like, in control of the situation.

[00:07:52] I don't know.

[00:07:53] But, yeah, I don't know.

[00:07:55] I just noticed that this time and thought I would bring it up.

[00:07:58] Um, and so, you know, he crosses the street.

[00:08:05] He tries to meet his father, James Caan.

[00:08:09] And they're like, oh, it's a Christmas gram.

[00:08:14] And obviously James Caan doesn't believe him.

[00:08:16] And he's like, oh, yeah, um, my, uh, my, my mother was this person.

[00:08:23] And she, uh, she died.

[00:08:24] But she didn't tell you that she had a kid.

[00:08:29] And so I've been here the whole time.

[00:08:32] But I was in the North Pole and I'm an elf.

[00:08:34] And, of course, he doesn't believe me.

[00:08:35] He's like, who sent you?

[00:08:36] This is not funny.

[00:08:38] So after a while, and he goes to this, uh, shopping mall?

[00:08:44] No, uh, mall, uh, toy store place.

[00:08:48] And they think he's one of the worker elves that, you know, work there.

[00:08:54] Because there's, like, the North Pole thing with the big Santa.

[00:08:58] And that's the famous scene.

[00:09:01] Santa's coming in the morning.

[00:09:02] Santa!

[00:09:03] I know him!

[00:09:05] And, yeah.

[00:09:08] That's where he was working.

[00:09:10] But they, you know, he wasn't working.

[00:09:12] Which makes me wonder, like, he did, he had a clock in and out.

[00:09:17] But he didn't have any, like, info.

[00:09:19] Like, how did he clock in?

[00:09:20] Did he just show up?

[00:09:21] And they're like, hey, you didn't clock in.

[00:09:23] Uh, it shows him working there for several days.

[00:09:27] Or a few days.

[00:09:28] Oh, no, maybe for one day.

[00:09:30] Because he's like, Santa's coming tomorrow.

[00:09:32] And then when Santa comes, he's like, you're a liar.

[00:09:35] And then, like, fights him.

[00:09:36] And then she gets fired and all that.

[00:09:39] But, until then, it didn't show him clocking in or out.

[00:09:43] And no one even questioned it.

[00:09:44] Like, hey, I don't remember seeing you.

[00:09:46] And that was the boss that spotted him.

[00:09:48] Like, hey, you, come up here.

[00:09:50] What are you doing down here?

[00:09:51] And he would have hired him.

[00:09:54] And he didn't even remember.

[00:09:55] There wasn't a whole lot of elves.

[00:09:57] There were several elves.

[00:09:59] But you'd think he would remember every single person he hired.

[00:10:02] Like, I've never seen you before in my life.

[00:10:04] You're just dressed like an elf.

[00:10:05] And I'm going to assume you work for me.

[00:10:10] So, yeah.

[00:10:12] He meets Joey Deschanel.

[00:10:14] And immediately, she's like, ah, what's your problem?

[00:10:17] Because he wouldn't stop looking at her.

[00:10:18] And he's like, ah.

[00:10:22] Yeah.

[00:10:23] He later explains, like, oh, my tongue swells up when I see you.

[00:10:27] Or something like that.

[00:10:28] He has, like, a huge crush on her.

[00:10:30] And whenever the whole, um, there is a now infamous scene that I always hate watching.

[00:10:48] When she's in the shower.

[00:10:49] And then he comes in.

[00:10:51] And they're singing Baby is Cold Outside.

[00:10:54] Which, that song is creepy on its own.

[00:10:57] Um, I know there's a controversy around that.

[00:10:59] And I know a lot of the older people are like, I don't see how it's so creepy.

[00:11:03] It's, you know, it's, it's been a, it's been a big song forever.

[00:11:07] Like, why is it now becoming, because things are different now.

[00:11:13] And, like, like, hey, what's, uh, say what's in this drink?

[00:11:18] No cares to be hot out there.

[00:11:21] Answer the, answer the question.

[00:11:23] Yep.

[00:11:25] Um, so, that's, there, there's a creepy moment where he's, like, sneaking into the shower room with her singing a creepy song.

[00:11:36] And, yeah, that whole scene didn't age well.

[00:11:39] And she found it charming somehow.

[00:11:43] Because, um, I think in real life, if that happened, she would have, she would have gotten a restraining order right then.

[00:11:53] And, fired, sent to jail, which, later he gets sent to jail with a restraining order, uh, against the store, not her.

[00:12:02] But, yeah.

[00:12:03] She ends up with him at the end.

[00:12:05] I don't understand it.

[00:12:10] But, anyway.

[00:12:13] Eventually, um, whenever he gets arrested, James Caan comes back and builds him out.

[00:12:18] And, they go to do a DNA test.

[00:12:23] You know, one of those quick, um, in and out DNA tests.

[00:12:29] Because that's how that works.

[00:12:34] And, he finds out, oh, you actually are my son.

[00:12:37] Because, um, they had to get that out of the way.

[00:12:42] Because it's like, they didn't do that scene.

[00:12:45] That would have been a plot thing where he was like, how did he, how did he just randomly accept it?

[00:12:52] But, nope, they had to do the unrealistic, instant DNA test.

[00:12:57] At least they didn't do, like, an at-home DNA test.

[00:13:00] That would have been.

[00:13:01] It's like, okay, let me just wait 15 minutes.

[00:13:04] Uh, there's a plus sign.

[00:13:06] We are related.

[00:13:07] Yeah.

[00:13:08] So, it's unrealistic.

[00:13:10] But, they're just trying to get the movie to move along.

[00:13:12] But, I still don't like it.

[00:13:15] Uh, meh.

[00:13:18] And, basically, he just, the whole movie is, he doesn't fit in with the real world.

[00:13:23] And, but then Santa comes and crashes in Central Park.

[00:13:28] And, there's a whole thing involving that.

[00:13:31] No, he runs to Central Park.

[00:13:34] And, who does he run into?

[00:13:36] Out of the millions of people living in L, in, in LA.

[00:13:41] And, all of the millions of people living in New York.

[00:13:43] Who does he run into in the park?

[00:13:47] His father.

[00:13:48] And, his little brother.

[00:13:53] Oh, because, you know, New York City's a small town.

[00:13:57] Everyone knows each other.

[00:13:58] And, you're constantly running into people you know.

[00:14:02] In places that you don't normally hang out.

[00:14:05] Because, that's what happens.

[00:14:10] Okay, I'm just gonna go ahead and, and, talk about the thing I alluded to earlier.

[00:14:16] With the podcast idea.

[00:14:18] Yeah.

[00:14:18] So, I've had this idea for a podcast.

[00:14:22] Where it tells, it's a movie podcast.

[00:14:26] But, it is disguised as a true crime podcast.

[00:14:32] Like, the first thing that comes to mind, obviously.

[00:14:34] Is, you're telling the story of Halloween.

[00:14:36] Like, the movie Halloween.

[00:14:38] Michael Myers.

[00:14:39] And, you're telling it like it's a true crime story.

[00:14:42] I have an idea.

[00:14:47] For an episode on that podcast I just made up.

[00:14:52] About this episode.

[00:14:54] Because.

[00:14:57] A baby just went missing from an orphanage.

[00:15:01] And, I just forget about it?

[00:15:03] No.

[00:15:05] That would have been, like, a mis-

[00:15:07] You would have heard, you would have heard about that on, on True Crime Podcast.

[00:15:14] Like, this baby disappeared from this orphanage.

[00:15:18] And, nobody knows what happened.

[00:15:20] And, the nurse.

[00:15:25] The, no.

[00:15:26] No.

[00:15:26] Uh.

[00:15:27] The person in charge was a lady that, like.

[00:15:31] Was there.

[00:15:32] And, then she left.

[00:15:33] And, then the baby disappeared.

[00:15:34] She would have been investigated.

[00:15:36] She would have been suspected of something.

[00:15:38] Maybe even got in jail.

[00:15:39] I don't know.

[00:15:41] But.

[00:15:42] Yeah.

[00:15:43] That would have been a huge thing.

[00:15:44] And.

[00:15:46] That's why I was saying, like.

[00:15:47] If there's a sequel.

[00:15:48] They need to address that.

[00:15:49] But.

[00:15:50] I would love for this fictional podcast I just made up.

[00:15:54] To cover this.

[00:15:56] Uh.

[00:15:56] Cover the story of Elf.

[00:15:58] But.

[00:16:00] Only the, the aspect of.

[00:16:03] Hey.

[00:16:03] There's a, a missing person story here.

[00:16:05] And.

[00:16:06] It's never.

[00:16:08] Addressed.

[00:16:10] You just kinda.

[00:16:12] Kinda look past it.

[00:16:14] And.

[00:16:15] Yeah.

[00:16:16] I didn't really think about it till this time watching.

[00:16:18] Cause before.

[00:16:19] Cause it's just.

[00:16:19] It's just a scene.

[00:16:20] It's like.

[00:16:20] Oh.

[00:16:20] They need to get them to the North Pole somehow.

[00:16:22] This time I'm watching it.

[00:16:23] I'm like.

[00:16:24] Wait a second.

[00:16:26] There.

[00:16:29] Okay.

[00:16:30] Um.

[00:16:31] He's a missing person.

[00:16:32] And if.

[00:16:33] Oh.

[00:16:34] Okay.

[00:16:34] So.

[00:16:35] There's a.

[00:16:36] Will Ferrell has repeatedly.

[00:16:39] Refused to do.

[00:16:40] Elf 2.

[00:16:41] Which.

[00:16:42] Good.

[00:16:43] Because.

[00:16:44] It doesn't need a sequel.

[00:16:45] But.

[00:16:46] If they did.

[00:16:48] They need to address this.

[00:16:50] And have it be like.

[00:16:51] Oh.

[00:16:52] You know that.

[00:16:52] Missing.

[00:16:53] Have like a.

[00:16:54] I'm talking about.

[00:16:55] There's like.

[00:16:56] It would be part of a true crime podcast.

[00:16:58] Where.

[00:16:58] It's like.

[00:16:59] There's this baby that went missing from this orphanage.

[00:17:01] 30 years ago.

[00:17:03] And.

[00:17:04] Buddy's like.

[00:17:05] Oh.

[00:17:06] Wait.

[00:17:06] I think that was me.

[00:17:08] And he's like.

[00:17:09] Hey.

[00:17:09] Yeah.

[00:17:10] It was me.

[00:17:10] Where have you been?

[00:17:11] I've been in the North Pole.

[00:17:13] No.

[00:17:13] Really.

[00:17:13] Where have you been?

[00:17:15] He was in the North Pole.

[00:17:17] Uh.

[00:17:19] Yeah.

[00:17:20] See.

[00:17:20] Maybe that wouldn't work.

[00:17:25] I think it's best to leave this one alone.

[00:17:27] Don't do a sequel.

[00:17:30] But I would like.

[00:17:31] Someone.

[00:17:33] To do that.

[00:17:34] Podcast idea.

[00:17:36] Because.

[00:17:37] I'm just kind of throwing it out there.

[00:17:39] And.

[00:17:41] I want someone to do it.

[00:17:42] I'm not going to do it.

[00:17:43] Because I know.

[00:17:44] Because.

[00:17:46] In order for it to be really good.

[00:17:47] You have to treat it like a serious true crime podcast.

[00:17:51] Not like.

[00:17:52] Oh.

[00:17:53] This is a true crime podcast.

[00:17:54] Ha ha ha.

[00:17:55] No.

[00:17:58] Treat it like a true crime podcast.

[00:18:00] But discussing movies.

[00:18:02] And.

[00:18:02] It doesn't even have to just be like Halloween.

[00:18:04] Or like.

[00:18:04] Missing baby.

[00:18:05] An elf.

[00:18:06] Do you like.

[00:18:07] Tell the story of Ocean's Eleven.

[00:18:11] Or.

[00:18:11] You know.

[00:18:12] There's a whole bunch.

[00:18:13] Of movies.

[00:18:14] I've been thinking about this for a few years.

[00:18:17] It's like.

[00:18:18] This could be.

[00:18:19] A good true crime story.

[00:18:21] If you.

[00:18:22] You know.

[00:18:22] Look at it from a certain perspective.

[00:18:24] Like.

[00:18:24] These different movies.

[00:18:26] And.

[00:18:26] Like.

[00:18:29] Even like.

[00:18:29] The story of like.

[00:18:31] Nightmare on Elm Street.

[00:18:32] Like.

[00:18:33] Obviously.

[00:18:34] Like.

[00:18:34] The public isn't going to believe.

[00:18:36] Freddy Krueger.

[00:18:37] So.

[00:18:38] There's this mystery.

[00:18:40] In this town.

[00:18:41] Where.

[00:18:42] Kids just.

[00:18:43] Keep.

[00:18:43] You know.

[00:18:44] They keep.

[00:18:44] Dying.

[00:18:45] Dying.

[00:18:46] And nobody knows why.

[00:18:47] And they keep dying.

[00:18:49] In like.

[00:18:50] Very.

[00:18:50] Violent.

[00:18:51] Fashions.

[00:18:53] And.

[00:18:54] Sometimes very graphic.

[00:18:56] And nobody can explain why.

[00:18:59] And you know.

[00:19:00] There's.

[00:19:00] There's a rumor going around.

[00:19:01] That.

[00:19:02] You know.

[00:19:03] They fall asleep.

[00:19:04] And then they.

[00:19:05] They die very brutally.

[00:19:07] But.

[00:19:07] You know.

[00:19:08] That's.

[00:19:10] That's.

[00:19:11] That's ridiculous.

[00:19:12] So.

[00:19:12] There has to be some explanation.

[00:19:14] Or something.

[00:19:14] Like.

[00:19:15] Okay.

[00:19:15] In that case.

[00:19:17] I was going to say.

[00:19:18] Maybe that would have to be like.

[00:19:19] A supernatural.

[00:19:20] But no.

[00:19:20] No.

[00:19:22] Trying to keep it grounded.

[00:19:23] Because if it was a supernatural podcast.

[00:19:24] It's like.

[00:19:25] Maybe there's a ghost doing it.

[00:19:26] Because.

[00:19:27] You know.

[00:19:27] This.

[00:19:28] Is.

[00:19:28] It's kind of.

[00:19:29] It's like a fantasy element.

[00:19:30] Sticking with the true crime element.

[00:19:32] And be like.

[00:19:33] Maybe there's a serial killer running around.

[00:19:36] I.

[00:19:36] I don't know.

[00:19:37] How that would work.

[00:19:37] But like.

[00:19:38] You just.

[00:19:39] You know what I mean.

[00:19:40] There's so many.

[00:19:42] Ways.

[00:19:42] You could.

[00:19:43] Use.

[00:19:44] That.

[00:19:45] And.

[00:19:45] I would really.

[00:19:46] Want.

[00:19:47] Someone to do it.

[00:19:48] And about.

[00:19:49] Like.

[00:19:49] Take it seriously.

[00:19:50] You know.

[00:19:50] Not like a wink wink.

[00:19:51] Not.

[00:19:52] Haha.

[00:19:52] This isn't.

[00:19:53] This is.

[00:19:53] This is funny.

[00:19:54] Or.

[00:19:55] Like.

[00:19:56] I know she wouldn't.

[00:19:58] Do.

[00:19:59] This.

[00:19:59] I.

[00:20:00] I don't know.

[00:20:00] Unless she would like.

[00:20:01] I want a break.

[00:20:02] From her.

[00:20:03] Serious true crime.

[00:20:04] Shows.

[00:20:05] But like.

[00:20:05] Imagine someone like.

[00:20:07] Delia D'Ambra.

[00:20:09] Doing.

[00:20:11] This podcast.

[00:20:12] The.

[00:20:13] True crime movie podcast.

[00:20:16] And.

[00:20:17] It's like.

[00:20:17] Her voice.

[00:20:20] Telling these stories.

[00:20:21] Of like.

[00:20:21] Michael Myers.

[00:20:22] The night Michael Myers.

[00:20:23] Terrorized.

[00:20:24] Terrorized.

[00:20:25] This.

[00:20:25] This.

[00:20:26] Neighborhood.

[00:20:27] Like.

[00:20:28] That would.

[00:20:29] That would be hilarious.

[00:20:30] But.

[00:20:31] I think it would be really good.

[00:20:32] I want this now.

[00:20:33] I mean.

[00:20:34] I've been wanting it for years.

[00:20:35] Since I've been thinking about it.

[00:20:36] But I haven't told anybody.

[00:20:37] And now I am.

[00:20:39] Saying it in this.

[00:20:41] Episode.

[00:20:42] About.

[00:20:42] Elf.

[00:20:45] I don't think it fits.

[00:20:46] I am keeping it in.

[00:20:48] Anyway.

[00:20:50] Elf.

[00:20:51] Is currently streaming.

[00:20:52] On.

[00:20:52] Hulu.

[00:20:53] And.

[00:20:53] Max.

[00:20:54] Max.

[00:20:55] I watched it on.

[00:20:56] Max.

[00:20:57] And.

[00:20:57] I don't know if it was my TV.

[00:20:59] Or.

[00:21:00] Max itself.

[00:21:01] But the volume was really low.

[00:21:05] And.

[00:21:05] So I had to turn it up really loud.

[00:21:07] Like.

[00:21:07] That was weird.

[00:21:09] I don't know why I did that.

[00:21:11] I.

[00:21:12] I watched.

[00:21:13] This movie.

[00:21:14] And.

[00:21:15] Next episode's movie.

[00:21:16] Back to back.

[00:21:18] And.

[00:21:18] Both of them were really low.

[00:21:21] So.

[00:21:22] I don't know.

[00:21:23] Again.

[00:21:23] I don't know if it was my TV.

[00:21:25] Or.

[00:21:25] Max itself.

[00:21:27] And.

[00:21:28] Yeah.

[00:21:29] So like.

[00:21:29] Okay.

[00:21:29] So for example.

[00:21:30] I normally keep my TV.

[00:21:32] Normal volume for me.

[00:21:33] It's.

[00:21:34] 15.

[00:21:35] And.

[00:21:36] Sometimes.

[00:21:38] I'll have to turn it up to like.

[00:21:39] 20.

[00:21:40] 25.

[00:21:42] For.

[00:21:43] For.

[00:21:44] Elf.

[00:21:44] And the next movie.

[00:21:45] I had to turn it up to 35.

[00:21:48] Which I never turn it up that high.

[00:21:51] So.

[00:21:52] Again.

[00:21:53] I don't know if that was Max.

[00:21:54] I barely use Max anymore.

[00:21:56] Because like I said.

[00:21:58] Like everything's on.

[00:21:58] Hulu and Max.

[00:21:59] I did the bundle.

[00:22:01] There's a Disney plus Hulu Max bundle.

[00:22:03] And I did it.

[00:22:04] And I think they're taking that bundle to heart.

[00:22:07] Because a lot of things that are streaming on Hulu.

[00:22:09] Are streaming on Max.

[00:22:11] And.

[00:22:12] Like.

[00:22:13] This movie and the next movie.

[00:22:14] Are on.

[00:22:15] HBO.

[00:22:16] Are on.

[00:22:16] They're on Hulu and Max.

[00:22:18] And since I hardly use Max.

[00:22:20] I decided to watch them both on Max.

[00:22:22] I was like.

[00:22:23] Yeah.

[00:22:23] Let's give.

[00:22:24] You know.

[00:22:24] I'm paying for it.

[00:22:25] Why not use it.

[00:22:26] And then I was like.

[00:22:26] Oh.

[00:22:26] I had to turn our way up.

[00:22:28] Okay.

[00:22:28] That's.

[00:22:29] That's fun.

[00:22:31] But.

[00:22:31] Yeah.

[00:22:31] I'm going to end it here.

[00:22:33] And.

[00:22:33] I'm going to record.

[00:22:35] Since I watch both movies back to back.

[00:22:37] I'm going to stop recording.

[00:22:38] Edit it.

[00:22:39] And then start recording the next episode.

[00:22:42] Yeah.

[00:22:43] This is a real behind the scenes.

[00:22:45] Moment here.

[00:22:46] Heh.

[00:22:47] So this episode.

[00:22:48] And the next episode.

[00:22:49] I'm recording back to back.

[00:22:50] Just so you know.

[00:22:51] Fun fact.

[00:22:53] And.

[00:22:54] Cut.

[00:22:54] Cut.
