I am back again to ask you to cover the should’ve been Oscar nominated movie: Holes

That was very intelligent of Zach to say that this film came in Clinton era, when the economy was booming. People don't realise how profoundly the political and economic circumstances affect media and art in general. Like, post COVID, a lot of dark media has started coming up, be it books, movie or TV shows.

My father-in-law is buried in a famous local cemetery, everybody goes there to go for walks. We get lunch and go sit at his grave and eat with him, we get crazy looks for it! The only thing I don't like about people being in cemeteries, please give space and respect to the people who are there grieving when you're just there for a fun visit! The walkers are super rude and invasive 9 out of 10 times. Cemeteries are beautiful spaces that should be enjoyed, but just try and remember some people are there sobbing their eyes out for someone who they'll never see again. ***NOT SPEAKING ABOUT HOLLYWOOD FOREVER, JUST ABOUT YOUR LOCAL CEMETERIES WHO AREN'T HOSTING AN EVENT***

Do I have 2nd Try? Maybe. But will I still watch all the 2nd Try podcasts on KZfaq? Yes. I’m here for the comments and adding engagement 😂

I'm still in desperate need of a 10 Things I Hate About You episode

"Movie good. Movie safe space. Movi no say something too big!" Nailed it! Also, y'all saying "Kelsey needs Jesus" had my cynical ass laughing thinking "YES! Kelsey needs a hard working, Mexican boyfriend!" 😂

As a 34 year old, I'm SHOCKED by the number of throwback movies I watch now from the 90's and 2000's where I thought the actors & characters were in their 30's+, only to realize now that they were crazy young! Even just last night, I was watching Casino Royale for the first time in a decade and I remember Vesper as being a WHOMAN, this sexy, thriving, hyper-intelligent business person who was 35 years old, at minimum. The actress looked like an absolute BABY to me now and I found out she was only 24 when she filmed that movie.

I'm looking forward to hearing Zach talk about Almost Famous from his unique perspective of growing up to be a musicophile under the influence of his father's career in the live music industry.

*Red, White & Royal Blue.*

I’ve watched truly an embarrassing amount of movies, from all different countries/time periods/genres. I watch everything I can get my hands on…this is till my favorite film. It just feels like a comforting blanket.

The fact that they haven’t done Burlesque is a crime!

I think I’m gonna need to rewatch Forrest Gump, but also need Zach to rewatch it and elaborate on his thoughts about it. It’s been a while that I’ve seen it, but I don’t think the movie brushes over the “dark” aspects of history the way he’s implying it does. Yes Forrest seemingly glides through life, but the characters around him suffer true hardships and I think the movie does a good job of portraying that

When I was 15 I went to NY for spring break, and stayed with my adult friends who were attending/teaching at NYU. Billy Crudup and Parker Posey were dating and living in the apartment building next to my friends, they would go out and have smoke breaks on the curb and our smoke breaks would coincide. I just enjoyed the shared moments on the curb and didn't ask for a picture autograph, but I should have. 😂

As someone who grew up with the rock n roll of the 60s and 70s being played, I adore this movie. The soundtrack is fabulous, the characters feel authentic to the time period, and it's the perfect level of drama ❤

this is very random but the earnest nostalgia ick thing reminds me of a specific sad feeling i get and i want to know if anyone else knows what i'm talking about. It's when seeing certain cute things, like drawings done by a small child, that seem so earnestly precious like that kid didn't know what the world held yet, and it makes you kinda depressed for them? and there's like a somewhat irrational fear they'll be bullied or made fun of like others won't see the beauty in the drawing that you see, they'll just see something to ridicule. bonus if it's from a while ago and the kid is grown up now.

Almost Famous is one of my favorite movies ever, deadass changed my life 😭

Pure pleasure pleasure pleasure! The question doesn't need to be asked! It's one of my absolute most favorite movies.

There are cemeteries here in London which are parks, like Tower Hamlets, and most old churches had gardens with benches you can sit among the old graves.

Almost famous is my favorite movie of all time, I’m so excited Edit: yall took way too long to mention Philip Seymour Hoffman

Can we talk about how amazing Garricks impersonation of PSH is? Holy hell, I thought he came back to life

Zach: What's up with all this fictional incest? Also Zach: The best love stories are a little bit oedipal. I know he means metaphorically but lol

I really need yall to do Pirate Radio

Kelsey, she was definitely supposed to be under 18 lol "baby groupies" were a thing in thr 70s 🤢

penny lane isn’t 16. she was just saying “me too” to william over and over to get him to say his age

Also would love for yall to do red white & royal blue!

Never thought I’d see my favorite movie on guilty pleasures but I am extremely pleased

I'm still waiting for them to review Master of Disguise. It's the biggest guilty pleasure movie from my childhood

Kelsey calling Drake out is gold

Can yall please please do Blank Cheque the Disney movie that Kelsey mentioned!!

I just hope as a bunch of theatre kids they all know that it was made into a musical within the past few years, with the director having a heavy hand in it as well!

I think Penny was actually supposed to be about 19 years old, which is how old Kate Hudson was when making the movie. The whole "how old are we really?" scene was a joke. Her age is never stated to keep it ambiguous, but I don't think she's meant to be underage, even though many of the groupies of the time were.

Garrick, there are loads of rock bands, the indie scene is thriving, King Gizzard is touring the US right now, I'd love to see a vlog at Red Rocks, lol

Please PLEASE do Saved!! Such a good throwback

Is red, white and royal blue next?

FINALLLLY AN ALMOST FAMOUS EPISODE 🥹😭🫶🏻

I would like some RED, WHITE AND ROYAL BLUE

i was literally just thinking about how you guys should talk about this movie, this is fate!

Garrick!! You want a band?? Listen to The Rose!!!! That said when you mentioned The Rose Bowl, I thought to myself... I saw BTS there. 🤭

You 3 should do Red, White and Royal Blue for Pride Month

Oh I’m SO excited for this

When are you gonna get to Red, White and Royal Blue?

Please watch and discuss Promising Young Woman. Its so underrated

I dont think forrest gump was an apt example of what zach was saying about older films' outlooks on life/america, bc the point of that film specifically was kinda about forrest's perspective giving him a sort of immunity from fully being swallowed up by the suffering around him, that hes an outlier who- does have highs and lows and experiences all this american history firsthand- but ultimately he is imbued with a sense of cosmic luck, and a sense of always being more present as opposed to cerebral about his life like the people around him who are more brought down by their troubles (lieutenant dan, jenny, etc)- it seems like the suffering his character endures doesnt stick with him, but all the love he has experienced in his life does. Honestly even though i love this film i do think tom hanks does not do a great job playing special needs at all and im surprised people dont point that out as much as they do something like jerry mcguire, but regardless its deservedly a classic

hey a movie i think should do a episode for its not necessary guilty pleasure but will love to hear take of zach and garret will be 8 miles

We need a video about Avril Lavigne let go album 2002 and more

HELL YEAH ACROSS THE UNIVERSE. I WILL BE SAT

i swear at one point they mention penny is only a grade above william briefly so i always assumed shes 16

Please do Stuck in the suburbs!

PLEASE watch Zathura, the most underrated movie on this planet (off this planet) directed by the king himself, Jon Favreau starring Josh Hutchinson, Kristen Stewart and Dax Shepard.

Do people not still go to cemeteries to hang out? I like reading tombstones and looking at the beautiful sculptures and buildings in the really old ones. Most have like picnic tables and other park stuff where I am I assumed you were meant to spend time in them?

Must have been 🗿the first time I watched this Bc I don’t remember watching it But woke up with tiny dancer in my brain and wanted to watch AF Can’t do that bc omw to work so here I am again lols much luv

33:56 53:28

best movie ever

Do Elton John's Rocketman

This sounds like a great movie that I hadn't heard of before, so I'll put it on my list of things to watch. I actually prefer rock music, but like, I live in Japan and like a funny interesting thing about Japan is that it's probably like the only place in the world where rock still perseveres. It's not as crazy as like how things got in the States partly because the government is quite strict about some of the illicit things, so bands are generally probably a lot more PG than in most parts of the world. Not that seedy things never happen, but there's more people who are law abiding and trying to avoid a scandal than there are people who are getting into things. In comparison, more scandals probably came out of pop idol groups who had super controlling contracts they were locked into from a young age, so they were more likely to try to push toward scandalous things to try to get some freedom in their lives. But that sad, the huge headlines and bad press and being dropped from all of your labels and contracts and your stuff being pulled off of shelves in light of a scandal that gets leaked to the public and ends up in country-wide shaming is probably a huge incentive for a lot of people to probably keep their nose clean. The content of the songs can get dark and explore more of the darkness of the human condition in an artistic way though and that's totally okay because you're just talking about stuff and expressing and not actually doing it. But also, dance music gets to Japan too the same as everywhere else, but like...there's almost no dance clubs here except for in the large main cities because up until recently dancing at nightclubs was banned. Live music was totally okay, but like concerts would end by like 8 or something so people would be able to get their last train to go home. Probably because of that EDM and stuff hasn't really taken as big of a hold here as in other places where night life is more of a thing. The situational cocktail here just kind of fits better for people to enjoy watching bands and other entertainers perform on stage, so that's how things are and so a lot of concert venues of all sizes still exist here and there's a huge music scene with a lot of bands of varying music genres including a lot of rock bands, and I kind of love it. Like I do listen to some other music genres, but I'm sure you can attest to the fact that sometimes some emotions can only be expressed through a certain kind of song and having the musical variation of being able to have a rock song when your mood feels like it needs a rock song is just nice. But like, further, Japan is like the only place where Tower Records still exists. The rest of the company around the world dropped dead in this era of digital music, but Japan still makes having physical copies and physical merch viable that somehow DVD and CD stores still exist here and people go to them. Tower has its own digital music things and has expanded into other verticals slightly outside of just music, but are music adjacent or like at least marketing promotion adjacent. It's kind of interesting to just observe and see how they manage to still just work.
