Speaker A

Retail headline you most want to see turned into a movie.

Speaker A

Chris, this is one of your favorite categories, so I'm going to go to you first.

Speaker A

Which.

Speaker A

Which headline did you most want to see on the big screen this year?

Speaker B

Yeah, well, the obvious answer for me is Red blood and khaki, the hubris that destroyed a once proud brand.

Speaker B

But I'm not going to go there.

Speaker B

Actually, believe it or not, I'm going to go with the headline that Sheehan made its first move into physical retail in Paris, because that did not go well.

Speaker B

There was a lot of drama related to that announcement.

Speaker B

And so the title of this film.

Speaker B

And is she in Sac le Bleu?

Speaker B

And, you know, and.

Speaker B

And the person that would play the lead is my favorite, favorite French actress, the Bond girl, Lia Sido.

Speaker B

And she would take up the cause in this film, leading the protesters who are up in arms over the whole she and thing in Paris.

Speaker B

That.

Speaker B

That's my movie of the year.

Speaker A

Oh, my God.

Speaker A

I would go to see that for sure.

Speaker A

Chad, what is your movie, your retail headline of the year you'd most like to see turned into a movie?

Speaker C

I understand why you love this.

Speaker C

This omni so much, Chris.

Speaker A

All right.

Speaker C

I looked at a few different ways that this was described in the press to pick what was the best kind of movie teaser.

Speaker C

In the end, I like how the Wall Street Journal put it.

Speaker C

I tried the robot that's coming to live with you.

Speaker C

It's still part human, followed by a futurism did $20,000 robot servant comes major catch.

Speaker C

Of course, we're talking about Neo, the chore robot.

Speaker C

Oh, yeah.

Speaker C

I mean, chore robot fails make.

Speaker C

Yeah, Chore robot fails make for just amazing video content.

Speaker C

But, you know, for me, this turns into a thriller horror, kind of based on the CEO's own statement.

Speaker C

Right?

Speaker C

Like, if we don't have your data, we can't make the product better.

Speaker B

Right.

Speaker C

Like, there's a human on the other side of those doughy robotic eyes.

Speaker C

Like, dear God, this is exactly the stuff that Black Mirror episodes are made of.

Speaker C

Movies like Megan, my favorite genre of, like, human versus Machine.

Speaker C

Like, I'm in for that.

Speaker A

Oh, my God, I love that movie.

Speaker A

And it would be absolutely terrifying.

Speaker A

It already is just as it is.

Speaker A

So, I mean, imagine what Hollywood would do to that.

Speaker A

I'm gonna close it out with my.

Speaker A

My movie that I want to see.

Speaker A

There's two headlines that captured my movie title.

Speaker A

The first one is the Coles Ashley Buchanan investigation, the Cole's CEO leaving and the Wall street or the.

Speaker A

I think it was Washington Post article that came out about that, which, which I feel like would make for a great probably not movie.

Speaker A

We're really probably talking like, made for TV movie on Netflix direct to streaming or something.

Speaker A

But either that whole, like, the reading that article, it felt like you were reading straight from like a romance novel where things went awry or the Kroger CEO mysteriously getting fired.

Speaker A

Like, I think that there's a lot of intrigue and, and mystery that are happening and no one really knows what happened.

Speaker A

So it's like Unsolved Mysteries meets Danielle Steele for the Ashley Buchanan one.

Speaker A

And.

Speaker A

And just straight up Unsolved Mysteries for the.

Speaker A

The Kroger CEO.

Speaker B

Yeah, that Ashley Buchanan one's good.

Speaker B

And like, Coffee Beans and Favors would be my title for that one.

Speaker B

Producer Ella, let's bring you in here.

Speaker B

Which.

Speaker B

Which of these, which of these three movie choices, which of these three headlines that we could turn into a movie or actually four, because Anne gave us two.

Speaker B

Which movie would you most like to see?

Speaker B

I'm curious.

Speaker A

Producer ELLA I'm totally going with Chad on this.

Speaker A

Like, the Megan the Robot robots totally would be terrifying, but Hollywood, they'd eat it up.

Speaker C

Right, right, right.

Speaker B

And it's probably already in production.

Speaker B

It's definitely in pre production.

Speaker B

Somebody's thinking about it right now, without a doubt.

Speaker C

What do you call it if you actually get to win an Omni and an Oscar and, like, what happened?

Speaker C

Like, what is that title?

Speaker C

But you should add Omni to that rank.

Speaker A

We should.

Speaker B

The aspiring scriptwriter in me may one day want to fight, figure out exactly what that's like.
