...............hi there. I'm Hayley And I'm Johnny, and you're listening to Johnny, Johnny, Haley, day of fun. Who do we have on today? I don't know. Let's dive in and find out. Welcome to another episode of Johnny Haley day of fun. Today we're joined by Sage, the intern, the newest addition to Frankie's podcast network. Once I post the episodes that I already have edited, I'm getting it. I'm getting there. I'm gonna do it. It'll happen eventually. We'll get there. I'll be fine. Johnny's over there bundled up warm because Johnny's in, um, do you know what I used to call Fargo, Johnny? And this will be a good segue. I'm I used to call Fargo Azkaban, like the wizard prison from Harry Potter, because the wizard prison from Harry Potter is surrounded by Dementors who suck all of the light and happiness from the world and make things very cold. So Fargo was Azkaban to me. You didn't enjoy Fargo, I take it. Listen, where I'm at, I could shovel some slushy snow off of my driveway today. Yeah. I bet that's not the case where you are. Um, to be honest, it hasn't been too bad. Our winter's like, today it's like 34 degrees, so our winter really hasn't hit yet. We've been pretty lucky. It doesn't have to. You know what? This is the kind of global warming I'm okay with, even though it's bad. Yeah. I don't know. I, we had like a spell of cold and then now it's in the thirties, so it's not too bad. So we have problems with what you guys have. What would you call, what, what's, what's your movie reference then to Fargo? Where would, where would you put Fargo at? Sage, where would you put your, your living quarters in, in the kind of Minnesota region? We've been spoiled. It's been super nice until January, and then it was super cold. And it was 34 degrees out, like Fargo. And I had shorts on. I walked to my grandpa's house in shorts. Okay, so you're one of those crazy people who does that. Yeah. As soon as it gets above freezing, it's shorts weather. Are you kidding me? No! I, I, no, I don't want to still. I want it to be 60 degrees plus. Thank you. I used to hang out with a guy that when it was 40 below, he used to still wear shorts. I can't do that, but Nathan used to do that. I'm with him. My older brother used to do so dumb. I don't get it. There's people up here that don't like coats and shit. And it's like, what are you trying to prove? What are you trying to like? That is a hundred percent accurate. Like just put it. Nobody thinks you're tough. It's cold as balls. And it's really just, that's just bad planning. Well, they always get, they're always sick. You know what I mean? So it's like, put a fucking coat on. It's not that hard. Not at all. But I don't know, like Fargo. What would be a good depiction of Fargo? No, like the vibes that you get from Fargo. What movie would you pick? Like, so say, what movie would you pick to be the vibes? I mean, I'm not, do you know what I would pick for where I am currently? The burbs. The burbs? The burbs because I am sort of in a suburb of Sioux Falls and it's, you know, Sioux Falls might not be New York, obviously, but like, there's, we're very like watching everybody else's house, like, yeah, you know, bitching about the neighbor's lawn. Yeah, in my neighborhood we have those, we have a few old ladies that like to think they're neighborhood watch and they like to, they just get into people's bullshit and then they go around telling everyone. That's basically their, their contribution to the neighborhood. Oh, that's good for them. They're the Not really. It's pretty annoying. And then like, uh You gotta have the witchy gossip ladies. You just gotta True. But I don't know, I mean, the neighborhood I live in, there's just, I don't know what I would reference it in, I guess, like what movie would come to mind. Sage, you, what do you, what do you think? Do you have a, I would actually say you're maybe even a little more sort of Fargo where you're at Sage, just because the movie Fargo. I feel like it made Fargo seem like such a smaller town than it actually is. Well, well, the thing about Fargo, I'm sorry to interrupt. But, um, it was mostly brainerd, I think. No, that's what I'm saying, like, they built it in a smaller town outside of Fargo, and they made Fargo seem like it is a small, like, town, like, movie. A small town. Yeah. Ugh. I don't know. Okay, we'll put a pin in that, think about it, but Sage, here's a thing that I, here's, here's a fun for us. So favorite movies from when you were a kid. Oh yeah. And these are going to be very different for all of us. Okay. And our favorite movies from when we were kids will be very telling about our ages. So I loved Beetlejuice as a child. Okay. That was one of my favorite. Beetlejuice, Ghostbusters, and Batman, for sure. That reminds me, I need to get a Ghostbusters themed tattoo. What have I been doing with my life? You should. Beetlejuice, Ghostbusters, and what? Batman! Like the 1989 Batman, Michael Keaton Batman. Okay. Like, Michael Keaton will always be my Batman. Okay. Yeah, we've discussed that. We have discussed that, yes. Michael Keaton's my Batman. You were very adamant about the Michael Keaton Batman. I am very, yes. Which is not to say that I didn't love the Adam West, the old school. But Sage, you used to watch Barbie movies. Barbie movies and Have you guys seen Seven Brides for Seven Brothers? No. No. You should watch that. Okay. You should go watch that. You should go watch how sexist that is, and that defines my childhood. It's so good. Every Christmas. It's so good, and it's so sexist, and then, okay. Yeah. Will it help us understand? It's an old classic movie. Oh my gosh. Okay. Yeah. No, I've never seen it. No, like when you say, oh go ahead. I was gonna say 1950s Batman. That was the other one. The 1950s, like 1950s, 1950s. Yeah. Okay. This one, you were watching this when you were a kid? Yeah. I love it. Okay. How about, did you ever watch, okay, so when, when Mikhail was little, my youngest brother, he was like obsessed with Godzilla movies, like the Godzilla. Like the old ones? Like the old one, he was like super obsessed with how they made the original suit that they filmed, like that they built or whatever, like he had like a whole book on the original director of the first movie and like the history of Godzilla and like, yeah, yeah, he was like totally obsessed and I love Godzilla 1985 like let me listen. I love Godzilla. I like Godzilla is my spirit animal. Have you seen the new one? Which one? There's so many. The new one that just came out. The new, new one. No, I haven't seen this one. I've seen the one with like Bryan Cranston from like 3, 4 years ago. What was it? 2 years ago? Yeah, I think it was 2. Okay. Yeah, yeah, I've seen that one. I have not seen the one that they just released. Yeah, there's one that they just released, and my dad went to watch it with one of his, one of his friends from Japan, and he said that it was the most Japanese movie that he's ever watched, because when they hit Godzilla, every single member of the Japanese army saluted him as he was going down, and they were all shedding tears. You can't, you can't destroy Godzilla. He's helped, he's helped defeat so many of the other weird monsters that radiation made. I know. Well, like, uh, my introduction to Godzilla, like I knew about the human watch, but do you remember that the one, was it Godzilla 2000 or something like that? With Matthew Broderick. Yup. Yes. Do you remember that thing? I enjoyed that one too. I don't care how bad it was. It was pretty bad, but, uh, I don't know, it was, it was, I love a bad monster movie. I love it. I'm guilty as anyone. I watched it countless times. You know what I mean? You can't stop at once. It's, it's a bad movie, but I watched it countless times. So it's like, it's not that bad, but it's like you, it's more laughable than you watch it. But that's what I like about a bad monster movie. It's a good, bad movie is what that's called. Well, yeah, it's like that Russian guy, how he gets past that security guard. He talks like Elvis. Oh my God. So dumb. I love it. I love it. It's the best. Yeah. No, I was going to say like, I love a good monster movie. And so I was just, I was going to switch us over into monster movies. Do we, do we have some favorite monster movies? I really liked, um, Cloverfield when that came out. See, and I, I didn't. You weren't a fan of like, well, I, I kind of, I just like the style of it because it's like, you don't really know what's going on. That was, that was my thing, was that like, when Cloverfield first came out, that sort of like, from the camera person's perspective, like that was not done. Right, like that was not common for you to see. So I think that when I watched it the first time, it was just so jarring to me, right? I think, yeah, I think why I liked it, it was almost like Blair Witchcraft. Well, see, and the Blair Witch, I like Blair Witch, though. I like Blair Witch. Yeah, well, I'm saying, like, the Blair Witch, when that came out, when they were, like, the point of view for the whole thing, that, I don't think that was ever done. Like, that was, like, one of the first movies, the whole thing was done in just a blueprint. It was almost kind of like, before, you know, before there was all the YouTube, TikTok, Like before those, that sort of, I don't know, filmmaking, you know, is what you would say for YouTube all the time. But that kind of, but those kinds of camera angles and that sort of point of view kind of thing wasn't common. No, I didn't really, I didn't really appreciate the Blair Witch until I watched the documentary about it and knew like all the background stuff. Yeah, no, you were saying they like. The actors didn't really know what was going on. They were purposely freaking him out. Well, they just kept everything kind of a secret. Like, uh, like I told you that one scene where they walk up on the house, that was the first time those actors ever seen it. Yeah. Then they said they would keep them up at night. Cause they would fuck, they would fuck with them. They would run up to their tents and like shake their tents. And then they would like make noise and like, you know, steal stuff from them. They would like, if they had, I think they had a compass and they would steal it from them. You have to be awake all night to do that shit though. So like, yeah, that's some wild people making that movie that are like, we're going to stay up and we're going to freak them out and they're not going to get any sleep. And it's like, okay, but you're also not getting any sleep because you're up doing weird shit at night. Like who knows they could have 50 people 25, you know, because you don't have to screw with them during the day. They could not just have five people at night around your house screwing with you, you know what I mean? Cause it's one tank, you don't have to cover up, but you know, you can sit there and shake a tree for three hours and really fuck up their sleep. This is true. I remember when Blair Witch first came out, though, it was such a, like, it wasn't it. I don't know if you remember it, but like, I remember it being such a like, big deal. Oh, it was so scary and so freaky and like, I think there was, I think Blair Witch was one of the first ones too that I remember that was like, almost kind of Orwellian, right? Like they, people thought that it was supposed to be real, right? Like, yeah, that kind of thing. Yeah. The only thing I can compare it to, like. Uh, when that came out, like the way, like the way it, um, it was kind of like presented and stuff. It, it reminds me of, uh, Paranormal Activity when that came out. Right. Yeah. That was the same thing. Yeah. It was a different lane. Well, and they, there's a couple of things on Netflix like that, that I remember seeing too recently that are like, they look like a documentary, but it's not. Yeah, like they present as a documentary, but it's obviously fiction kind of thing. Yeah. Yeah. I'd not to say that I, I don't have a problem with it if you just like, but I want you to like, tell me that at the beginning, because when I'm looking for an actual paranormal investigation. Documentary. Yes. Then you get a horror movie. And not what I was looking for. We're we're. Yeah. Yeah. And by this time you're already invested into it because you're already like you've watched it for an hour, right? 100 percent like I got like three fourths of the way through something. I'm like, wait a minute. This is bullshit. Wait a second. Yeah. Ugh. I mean, good for them. They got me, you know? Yeah, for sure. I mean, everyone liked those paranormal activity movies. I fucking hated them. I just See, and I didn't like them either. I mean, I get what they were doing. Sage, what do you got? Sage the intern's like I get, yeah, I would, I agree with you. I get what they were trying to do, but they didn't execute it in the way that they should have done it. So then it just fell apart, in my opinion. And it just felt so fake. Well, it's like you're, you're leaving, you're basically giving me suspense for an hour to watch a lady get drug out of bed. Exactly. You know what I mean? It's like, what's the payoff of this film? Yeah. I don't know. See, but that's why I like, I think Johnny, where are we talking? I can't remember. Drag me to hell. If we, you talked to like, I have, I have not seen, I know what it's about. Okay. Well, so Sam Raimi, do you know, drag me to hell Sage? Okay. So Sam Raimi did, um, the evil dad movies. Right. Okay. And also Spider Man and stuff. But like. Yeah. So like then Evil Dead, how there's kind of different jump scares throughout and weird shit throughout. Right. Like that's what dragged me to hell had like a lot of just like weird, weird shit and like really good sudden jump scares. Right. And I, no, I get, like, I get what you're saying though. Like, cause you don't have a payoff, right. When you're just waiting for like, kind of like, okay, what's that one M night Shyamalan movie that I, I've never been a big fan of M night Shyamalan. I'm going to be honest. I'm guessing it wasn't the village, the village. I was gonna say, it's usually that film. That is the only movie. I love The Village. Really? I thought it was great. It was just, it was a different, I love those movies that just, you're watching it for an hour and you're just looking at it like, what the hell is going on? You know what I mean? Like, I, I love that about, if you can keep me guessing for an hour and a half, good on you. It, it's the end bit. It's the, it's the, okay, this is another, the fact that it was fake. Yeah, it was the, the, the, and they're like isolated challenge, dude. And I'm like, right. And I'm just like, like spoilers for all the things we talk about. If you haven't seen the movies, they, you know, I don't know what to tell you, but like, I, it's, I don't know. Have you ever seen funny games? Okay. It's the same reason I don't like, I don't like funny games for a lot of reasons, but like, so like, I don't like that. It was supposed to be fake in the whole monster thing. Cause I was like, that doesn't make sense to me that nobody ever wandered far enough into the woods to see this fucking, that there's a road with cars. And like, nobody wanders off that far. Like, I just don't buy that. Like, it didn't make sense to me, but like the, that switch thing of like. It's the same. I think I've talked about this with you too. It's the same thing that bothered me about the end of the IT books, the book IT to this day. Like, so in Funny Games, it's a, it's a home invasion movie, which I hate already. I was upset because I don't want, I don't need true crime in my horror movies. There's enough true crime in the world. I want monsters and ridiculous shit in my horror movies. But in Funny Games, they had, it was like a home invasion thing. And again, spoilers. But at one point towards, like, kind of the end, the wife, like, is able to, like, get free and grab a shotgun and shoot one of the intruders who's like the brother of their brothers, right? The, uh, the brother freaks out, picks up the remote and is able to rewind time and take the gun from her and then kill the whole family anyway. And I'm like, no, you don't get to just introduce. A whole science fiction element that was not part of anything at the end of just because you don't know how to end things. You don't get to put weird, stupid little glitch in here if you haven't been the matrix the whole time. Like, yeah, I was mad. I was just mad. Here's a question. What's a movie or what's the worst like the movie with the worst ending that you think just has the worst? The worst ending like you watch the movie and you're what's that or like? Does it count if the ending that we were getting into was so bad? We shut it off. Well, I'm saying yeah I mean, yeah that guy if you hate it It I think go for almost Every single sequel to an, to an original movie and have the worst ending. Yeah. Almost every single sequel sucks. But that's, that's, that's why like the B horror movie, like sequels work because they're supposed to suck. Right? Well, yeah. And then that's why I like the point. Right. When that's the point. Yes. But I'm with you when they tried to like, when you're trying to be cool. And you, you're not, you know, H and I watched a movie called, I'm thinking of ending things. And it was artsy and dumb the whole time. And at the end, they were in like a high school somehow for no reason. And the guy is certainly starts acting like, I can't remember if there was a janitor or he was pretending to be a janitor. And then it gets all very theatery and he's dancing in there and it's like performance and we're like, nope. But it was literally like a two hour long movie. There was 10 minutes left and we were like, we give up. Fuck it. We just give up. We can't do it. Yeah, there's a very few movies that I think have shut off. You know what I mean? Like that you just were like, fuck it. I mean, the question I just asked you, like I asked you guys, it's still kind of puzzling me, but like what's the worst ending? The worst ending? I remember I. It's kind of interesting. The first movie I thought of was a Kiefer Sutherland movie that I went by myself to the theater to see called Mirrors. And I was it worth it? No, because again, I was so mad at the ending of like, that is the stupidest cop out. Bullshit. Fuck you. Like, I was so mad, but I don't know. That's an interesting thing. If I maybe would rewatch it again now. Yeah. Like I heard, um, no, I just think it'd be interesting to watch it now and see if Yeah, my cousin didn't have a raving review about the Napoleon movie. He said he left the theater. He walked out of the theater during the Napoleon movie, so. For which one? Napoleon with, uh, Joaquin Phoenix. That's what my dad said, too! Yeah, he said it was dog shit. He was bad. He was so disappointed. Yeah, and then for some reason everyone, okay. Everyone in the movie is part of the French army, and they have, all of them, except for Joaquin Phoenix, have English accents, and then Joaquin Phoenix just talks how he talks, like an American accent, so it's bad. So they don't even try at all? No, Joaquin Phoenix is just weird Joaquin Phoenix, with a fucking crazy outfit, and like, it's, I don't know, it's, They hyped it up so much, and it was just such a flop. It was bad. I just basically went on YouTube and watched the battle scenes because that's all I gave a shit about. Like I don't need to know anything. Who cares about everything else? It was boring I guess, so. Man, that's a isn't that sometimes when you have a movie that's hyped up so much too, like you When you have expectations, right? It was so hyped up, like, the best movie, you know what I mean? And then if it, yeah, and then if it's like, even mildly disappointing, it's like that much more disappointing because it was so hyped up. Yeah. Do you have a movie, Sage? Yeah, worst ending. Or just a movie, absolutely. Just, you know, like, or you shut off or That was so bad. Yeah. That was so Not one that comes right to my brain. But they're, there's one movie that is not, it's not a bad, a bad movie by any means, but they keep, they go into this cornfield, and then they can hear themselves calling for themselves, I can't remember what it's called, but they call for themselves, themselves. And then the new group of themselves come into this cornfield, and it's like a cycle, and then they kill each other off, but they can never leave until they kill off this demon thing. I'm trying to think of what it's called. I gotta Google it. This is not Children of the Corn, right? No. I haven't watched Children of the Corn, of all the classic horror movies. I have not watched that one. Was that like a Netflix release or something? Yeah, what this is. So they go into a cornfield because this is kind of fun because remember I told you my doppelganger dreams that I had that sounds kind of like that. I told you, have I told you my weird doppelganger dream, Johnny? Let's hear it. I don't remember if you did or not. I have super great dreams. Once upon a time I had this dream. I was with this guy. Girl, like, I don't know, I just met or something and we were at this like mansion that was for like a family reunion kind of thing, I was meeting her family, and I remember at the beginning of the dream saying something like, oh, this is so nice, I'd like to trade places with you kind of thing, so like as I'm there, at the house, I start stumbling upon like dead bodies, like of the people Family members like someone killed someone and left a body in the closet and I find it and then when I go to get someone to show them the body is gone and then that person's walking like that person would be missing and then we'd go to sleep at night and then I'd wake up in the morning and that person would be back walking around like And it would keep happening. Nobody would believe me that somebody had been killed and like a doppelganger version, like every time that I woke up and a person would come back, they were like an evil doppelganger version of them. And I was the only one who knew that they kept killing them off and replacing them with doppelgangers. Eventually I got someone. To like, and it was, so like, eventually I got someone to like, get the cops to come or whatever, but, like, I wake up again in the house even after the cops come, and the girl is gone, the cops took her away, and I, like, At some point, there's just like a horde of all these multiple doppelgangers because every time I would wake up like the evil doppelgangers would continue to like propagate like every time like every time somebody died, there was another extra doppelganger of that person that was evil so that I was like being chased by these hordes of doppelgangers. And when I woke up from that dream. In my mind I was like, because I was like I would make that a story I would write that into a story in my mind I was like this girl. Tricked me right by making it look like it was such a good thing in the beginning and I said oh I would trade with you. She tricked me into trading places with her in purgatory. So I was living in her purgatory Stuck in her purgatory with all these doppelgangers that would just keep growing and growing in numbers What was um make that movie? So, okay, I have two references to talk about, like, from that story, I guess. Um, that sounded somewhat, like, kinda like Pet Sematary? I mean, it could be, like, where they, they come back evil. Exactly, yeah. Yeah. And then, um, about the, uh, the doppelganger thing. What was that, um, The movie, was it Us or something like that? I haven't watched Us. I've heard that's supposed to be good. Like, it wasn't, it wasn't Key and Michael Key or Yeah, it's the same guy who did Jordan Peele. Jordan Peele. Yeah, right? Jordan Peele didn't know. Yeah, he didn't know. But it's um, I think it's like us or something like that, and it's, that's pretty much And that's kind of what it is, where it's like they're doppelgangers or Well there's um, it's about, yeah, you have like a doppelganger basically, but there's like two sets of, of people. There's people that live underground and then there's people that live like just normal people. And they try to like, kill them off so they can take their spot, kind of. It's, it's somewhat like take their place above ground. Interesting. Yeah. There's, hmm. I don't know what the movie is, but I think there's, maybe I'm thinking of the same one. And then I just saw a trailer for it. That might be it. It's possible. Like, there's kind of like, aren't there like sort of hidden, uh, like tunnels in the walls or something like that, or am I kind of crazy? What this sounds to me like though is, um, an HP Lovecraft story. From the Necronomicon, like, H. P. Lovecraft and the Necronomicon, he had a story, I can't remember what it was called, but I know it was about the Martins family, that, like, they tunneled, like, there was like, underground tunnels that this guy found, and it was turned, like, this family, I don't know. They were, there was something weird about them. It doesn't like explicitly say incest or whatever, but like this family was basically shunned by the community and everyone in the family had this same genetic thing where they had one green eye and one blue. Right. And like, so that's how you knew it was a Martin's family or whatever. And, and eventually the property, the farm or whatever becomes sort of haunted, right? People go missing. But like this guy who's trying to find, The answer to it or whether he's investigating finds these tunnels and like follows them to the old Martins house and then like, here's all these like creatures coming up from all these tunnels. And they're very sort of like so it's kind of the way it's described reminds me of, it makes me think of what's the, Oh, what's the cave, the descent. Yeah, I just wrote that down. I was like, right, the things in the descent, like they're basically like that with kind of dead eyes, right? That they they're more sound and stuff, right? And they have all the weird white skin because they don't have any light exposure. So like this guy sees all these things, but like sees one of the creatures and like has one blue eye and one green. So like, this family became like underground dwellers is like where they went, like literally, right? Yeah, it's just like a weird it. incestuous rat cave tunnel people. Yeah, pretty much. There's that. But I also love the descent. Yeah. When you talk about that, it kind of reminds me of the blue family. And I think it's Kentucky, where they're all blue because they were incestuous long ago. And it just is generational blue people, real blue people. Yeah, blue people. Yeah, the photo you can find it's about it's like a, it must be like a grandfather or something. He's got like white hair. He's good. Yup. Yup. Yeah. And it's because of incest. Yeah. Back in Generations. Back in the day. Back in the day. Oh my. Yup. Word. The blue people. The blue people. I think they're from Kentucky. Maybe Alabama. You know, the classic. Uh, really? The classic incestual states. What can we say? You're right. Okay. Yeah. They are what they are. Oh, I found it. It's called In the Tall Grass. It was a Netflix special or a movie. Okay, so it's pretty good. I liked it. I want to check it out now because I just like doppelgangers and evil doppelgangers is kind of a fun concept in general. That, uh, sorry, go ahead. No, I was just gonna say it was the Stephen King concept. Yeah. Oh! Okay. Oh, okay. That's probably why I went children of the corn. Well, I was gonna say, it does sound, it has elements of children of the corn. Yeah. Minus the doppelganger, I guess, you know. It was, I don't know what was a demon, I think, in the corn. But, um, yeah, no, I love, I love the concept of doppelgangers. There's another. Oh, man, that's that is there needs to be more doppelganger movies for me. Doppelganger. Like, um, go for it. OK, what was I? Hold on. Scatterbrain, go ahead. Talk amongst, talk amongst yourselves. Yeah, I'm trying to think of us. We'll talk about the dissent because. I also love The Descent. I love The Descent. I love The Creature. Like, so Creature Feature Monster Movie. Love it. I love the Cause like, I'm not usually one for gore. But like, The Descent is such a well done story. Do you know what I mean? Like, the sort of betrayal element. That's in there. And then the revenge element at the end. Right? Yeah. So good. And, and I love that, that they wove that in there. Like the descent is like, I think the descent is probably just like one of like, just one of the greatest. Monster horror movies like that that has a really great story woven into it like it was really well written and executed Did you like the second one? I? Don't remember the second one. I know I watched it in the theaters, but I really don't remember it I should go rewatch it I mean to be honest the second one wasn't that bad like they did actually a pretty good job with the second one I think it was I mean the dissents or just can't really Screw that up. You know, you got to have a cave and there's monsters in the caves. Yeah. Yeah. There's a question though. Would you ever go spelunking? And I don't know that I, I don't know where you do that though. What they were doing, where you go cave mountain climbing with gears like they were doing, you know, no, As long as I have a rope and some food, why not? Why not? As long as I can get out, everything's fine. Well, that's the whole thing, though. Like, they went really far in there. Yeah. And they were putting up clippy do things to go across no man's land, and I'm like, I'll just I don't even like those bits in the video games when you have to jump over the, the, you know, the pit that you just fall into and it's just whoosh and there's, you're gone forever. What, I'm thinking of like Crash Bandicoot. Yeah. There's a, there's a game from childhood. I don't know if you, Sage. Crash Bandicoot? Yeah, we know, we know Crash Bandicoot. I was thinking Mario. Well, I mean, I think Crash Bandicoot is probably definitely inspired by it. Yeah, for sure. Games like that. I, Mario. Sometimes, that's a good thing that I use to distract myself when I need to just make my brain shut up for a little bit is I start singing the Mario music, you know, and then you gotta go into the underworld and do the like, sometimes, there's a new hot topic. It's called Polly world. Have you guys seen it? It's like Pokemon, but with guns. It's Pokemon with guns. Oh yeah, yeah. I didn't see that. Okay, okay. I'm sorry. You just said a lot of words. I know I just said a lot of words. I say a lot of words. No, you just said a lot of words that made no sense to me. A new hot topic. New hot topic. As in, we're branching off really quick. Scatterbrain moment. Polyworld. Polyworld. Like Pokemon, but with guns. And that's their description. That's not. Yeah. Okay. I just want you to understand what my brain just did just now. You said, you said new hot topic. And I thought hot topic, like the goth store and this, I thought what you were saying was that there is a new store that is themed entirely like similar to hot topic kind of goth, but is Pokemon with guns. We should do that actually. I mean it sounds like a, we could make bank on that. That sounds like a great franchise idea. But that is what my brain put together. Was that it was a Hot Topic store that was Pokemon again. Sounds great. Every single US mall that is failing, we're going to put new Hot Topic in. And it's going to be Pokemon with guns. Merca! Fill up every single store. I mean, it'd be great, you know. You could mix it with a pawn shop and it'd be really super on brand. Exactly. There you go. For sure. Okay, but this is a show like It's a video game. It's a video game. And every So the reason why it's so controversial is that All of the characters look like Pokemon. Similar. Similar to Pokemon. Okay. And so, people are saying that it's a rip off, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. But if you look back, Nintendo could have gotten sued by the company that they took their game off of, too. And how Can I How did you not Oh, yeah, lay it on me. Well, it sounds to me like they ripped off the episode of South Park with all the, what were those? The Chimpokoman is what, like there were, they were like making fun of Pokemon and all these kids were essentially being brainwashed to be an army for Japan to take over America, right? That's what the whole episode was, but it was Pokemon with guns. Like, so I think they ripped off South Park. I don't know. I could be wrong. Yeah. I mean, you know, whatever. Yeah, I think it's like, it's like, I don't know. It's It's kind of weird, too, because I saw screenshots of it, and yeah, it's Pokemon, but the guns look real. Yeah! Like, there's Pokemon with, like, M60s. I have to look this up now. Say this, okay. Huge machine guns. I also found the Kentucky Blue people, um, Yeah. The Blue Kugates of Troublesome Creep. Baffled science for decades. Okay, I, I'm gonna, we need to research this. Polly world. I'm going to look up Polly world, but we need to research those blue people because has America has America been around long enough for incest to both create blue people and then become a thing that is just in the gene pool without the incest. My question is, I guess I was right. They are Kentucky. Yeah, it is Kentucky, but okay, sorry, Polly world, I guess I just wonder about whether or not you can really continue to have that recessive gene and or whatever happening with, you know what, I don't want to know, forget it, I'm wrong, I don't want to know, let's, Polly, okay, no, no, no, Polly world, Polly world, Polly world is Polly pocket, what's the video game, what do you mean, you said Polly, didn't you say this Pokemon with guns is Polly world, Pollyworld. Pollyworld? Okay. Because this is exactly what I thought, too. Pollyworld is Polly Pocket. Well, that's what I would like it to be. Well, okay, but this is what's coming up for me. It's Polly Pocket. Okay. We're gonna say, I'm just gonna type in Pokemon with guns. Okay. With guns. Okay. Palworld. Sorry, not Pollyworld. Palworld. Those are very different things. I know. I mean, I knew it was Polly Pocket. Okay. Okay. Okay. Did you ever, was Polly Pocket a thing when you were a child? Did you, oh, did you, okay. You had to collect them. What is Polly Pocket? Johnny Boy! Woah, woah, woah! What do you mean, what is Polly Pocket? This is why, this is why you know Johnny Boy was much more into video games and paying no attention. No, I'm just, uh, Polly Pocket were those little, like it was, okay. I don't, I'm not watching. No. It was like a little plastic, like, think of a clamshell. Right? Yeah. And you would open it and inside of it would be like a little doll. It's a miniature doll house basically like you would have like there'd be little like rooms or whatever that are basically just little built in shelves with fucking stickers like Yeah, it was cheap, terrible stuff. And you had these little teeny tiny dolls that had like one little bendy notch that they bent at the waist kind of thing. And their clothes were that clothes were super stretchy, fake clothes. Okay, when I was a kid, Polly Pockets were, did not have clothes to go with them. They were so tiny, small. They, no way. Yes. Either you had just the clothes that they came with, or they had these weird, hard plastic dresses. You could snap onto their neck to put like a different dress on them. I definitely had some of those old ones that you snapped on the dresses, but I remember This, just the smell of, of the plastic, plastic rubber when you open the package and that feeling wouldn't leave from your fingers for, for days. Yeah, no, for sure. Plastic chemicals. What can we say? Uh, yeah. And those were the things we played with as children. And Jenny boy. I do remember also Tamagotchis, though. Oh yeah! Yeah, that's what I thought you, it was right away. Is it like a handheld, like, little electronics thing? No, those are those digital things. That I didn't know about? Yeah, Tamagotchi. Did, uh, I didn't, here's how I know it's a good thing I don't have children, because I fucking hated Tamagotchis. Ha ha ha ha ha! You got so pissed about it! I had, I gotta take care of, I gotta keep taking care of this thing. You hate them, oh my god, jeez. I hate them. Like, they just, like, I just got so anxious and I just got pissed off. Like, I gotta, it was, I felt the same way about when they first started doing those, like, cooking restaurant games where you had to, like, if you didn't take your food off of the things or whatever, like, it would go bad or you would burn it or whatever, I'm like, to hell. Or like, Papa's Pizzeria. I love those games. Oh my god, no, I just, it's stressful. That got me through computer class. Yeah. Okay, well, in computer class, when I was a kid, we were playing Oregon Trail. Wait, we barely had that. We were playing, like, Minesweep and shit. It was Oh, Minesweep was a good one. I forgot about Minesweep. Minesweep, ten minutes, it was You pretty much did it. That's Solitaire. Yeah, Solitaire, Spider Solitaire. The funny thing is Oh, go ahead. We just got into a whole bunch of typing games after that. Typing games were the best. I, let me tell you what, I will never forget Nameless Beacon typing games ever in my life. Because that's what we did! They, like, you did typing games and you did, like, speed typing, whatever, yeah. And you had to get a certain type per minute or whatever. Yeah! Yeah, I remember that, like, we had typing class or whatever. Doesn't that just make you feel like you've been trained to be a drone? No, it has just made me type better. I mean, to be honest, I'd rather take a typing class than not have it. It doesn't teach me how to type. No, I mean, like, yeah, it's valid. It's something that, like, they're correct. It's good for, you know, whatever job you're doing. But it's still one of those things where it's like But you have to be really good at it, you know, to, like, I don't know. Sorry, maybe that's me and my, like, down with the old paradigms. I don't know. Talking about typing, do you guys ever use your pinkies? I use my pinky for enter and that's it for typing. Yeah. What? You don't. I don't use my pinky. I think it's for enter. No. I don't know. I guess. I know. I'm like, I got to put my hands on my keys. And I'm like, Yeah, I think I, maybe, I think I do. I don't know. I don't, you so like, okay, so you're bippity bopping over with the ring finger all the time or what? Yeah, my pinky stays up, like when you're drinking tea. Oh, I see, Spongebob. You're, what, what, what is it they say? Like, fancy. Yeah, when you do that, you're just like, Foo foo. Fancy, foo foo, yeah. Okay, I see. Sage is super fancy. When she types, she doesn't use her pinkies. I guess I've always been trained not to use my pinkies for anything. They're the weakest bone in my body. They're useless. I'm not going to use them for typing. Right. I catch myself drinking like this sometimes. Yeah! In public, at a bar. Drinking a beer like this. It's dumb. Uh, cause you just do sometimes. Oh yeah, you just don't think of it. Sometimes you just involuntarily do silly things. I mean, we all do. For sure. I think there's probably an entire episode that we could have talking about the things that I do involuntarily that are silly. Like, talking out loud to myself while I'm walking my dog in a park and being like, Oh! There's people around! Oh, yeah. I should maybe not act like an absolutely insane person. Whoops. No, that's what makes it good, is when you do look like an insane person. I Because you don't want anyone coming up to you anyways. Screw the people. That's true. I was gonna say, isn't everyone kind of that crazy? Like everyone's had a conversation, a circular conversation in their head where they're having a back to back and back and forth conversation. I mean You know what I mean? That's true. I have out loud had a annoyed conversation with a bumblebee that wouldn't leave me alone in the park. So I've also done that. But yeah, I mean, it wouldn't leave me alone. And I was like, well, you know, after, after I was shouting at it and screaming of it and talking. Talking to Lucy, like, she understands what I'm saying while I'm walking my dog. Talking to Lucy and then realize that there's people behind me who just saw me screaming at a bee and talking to my dog. I talk to my dogs all the time on walks. Like, alright, it's fine, I'm just having a conversation with my dog. But at least you're talking to your dog, like, I've been caught just having a conversation with myself in public. I absolutely do. Like, nothing's crazier than that. Oh, all the time. People look at you like you're fucking insane. I do that on a daily basis. I have circular conversations with myself on a daily basis. And that's why I need to sing the Mario music sometimes, because sometimes you need to make the brain just be quiet. Right. I did think of a movie that kind of reminds me of Fargo. Oh, hey, here we go. Circling back around. What do you got? Okay. Four brothers. Minus Detroit, minus all the black people. What? Four Brothers. Four Brothers. Do you remember that? With Mark Wahlberg? No. Their, their grandma, or the, the lady that adopts them gets killed, and they're supposed to be like gangsters or something like that, and they go, okay, y'all probably have to watch the movie. Nevermind, that's alright. No, it's like, so, okay, but what is it about that movie that makes you think Fargo vibes? Just winter. The winter in the movie. Just cause it's like cold and gray. Cause it's cold and there's, it's, it's a, it's clearly a city. You know what I mean? So it's like. It's just reminds me of Fargo in the winter, sometimes when it's like stormy and stuff like that, but it's in Detroit. So it's like, well, I mean, we had this conversation before Johnny that like, you could also put, put Fargo in the 30 days of night category a little bit. That, you know, that miserable cold wind, you know. Yeah, that, that was another movie that popped in my head, just like that cold. And like, I don't know, like, for how you, how it is for you guys, but like the last week we haven't, I haven't seen the sun at all. It's been overcast and fog. And we're all gonna turn, we're all gonna turn into those weird cave creatures from The Descent until May. Right. I know. Alright, we'll serve We'll survive somehow. It'll be okay. For sure. For sure. It's I need a movie that's just all fog. The whole concept of the movie is fog. The mist? The fog! Ooh, the mist. The fog. Yeah, that's all it's been here. John Carpenter's The Fog, which is actually Oh. Am I remembering correctly that the fog in John Carpenter's The Fog is caused by a ghost pirate ship? Am I correct about that? I think I'm wrong. Or did I just put Scooby Doo and Spongebob into a John Carpenter movie? I kinda, I don't know. Well, I was gonna say, there was a movie called Ghost Ship. I love Ghost Ship. Do you remember Ghost Ship? That's what I thought you were talking about. I own Ghost Ship on Amazon Prime and I might make popcorn and go watch. What? Ah! No, no, no. I'm not saying there's anything. I don't know. I can't remember if it was good or not. I don't remember it being good. You don't remember like the, one of the open, like the I remember Was it an opening scene? Yeah, it was where the people, the fancy people on the boat and the little girl is dancing with like the one of the Mater D or something like that. And that, that cable line snaps. Am I spoiler alerting for Sage? Sage, I will never watch it. So you're fine. Yeah, it cuts everyone in half. Yeah, everyone gets cut in half. Except for the little girl cause she's short and she like watches that guy's face slide off and like she's the only one left on the dance floor cause she's short and like everyone else got cut apart. Yeah. Yeah. Now you have to go watch it. I was gonna say, but if that's the most entertaining part of your movie, is it really a good movie? Oh, I love the whole movie. No, I love the whole movie. I'll have to watch it again. There's a lot of stuff going on. I probably watched it when I was like, I don't know, like, I don't know when it came out. High school? Yeah, high school, middle school. Cause I really love the song from that ghost ship. Um, that they play during that little girl's flashback sequence. All I can think of is, it's murder on the dance floor. But you better not kill the green roof. Um, well, they did. They killed everybody. Have you guys watched Saltburn? Oh my god. My kids. What is wrong with your generation just a little bit? Because my kids. What are we talking about? My kid sister. 18? 19? She'll be 19. Hey, Submarine was a good movie. From what I've seen, it was good. I don't think I've watched the whole thing. Haley froze, but the best part is him dancing around nude at the edge because he killed everyone. I'm so proud of him. I'm so proud of him. Have you seen, um, have you seen some of the recent Nicolas Cage movies? Like, uh, Do you know what I'm talking about though? I, I know what you're talking about. I should sit down and watch them all. I think one was the color out of space and then the other one was, um, it was a girl's name. I can't remember what her, what it was called. It was, uh, Can you see me now? Yeah, you're good. We just we're talking about the uh, the latest uh, it wasn't cage movies But it wasn't it wasn't the one we watched it was the ones the uh, there's one called the color out of space And then there's one Say that again. Someone else just told me about that. What is it? The color out of space. I probably talked to you about it. There's this thing The color out of space. I believe it's the color out of space. But it's um, it's basically I think like an extraterrestrial thing lands in a well on a farm. That is a H. P. Lovecraft story. Yeah, yeah, it's, yeah. Like this alien thing lands and it like poisons the water and like everything slowly turns gray and everybody slowly like turns gray and just Lips away to ashes, like the end of 30 days a night. Yeah. I'll have to, um, I love Nicholas Cage. I'm I'm so happy that my internet decided to blip out and tell me it was unstable so that I could miss the salt burn and the opinion about salt burn. It's getting weird. There's a lot of weird stuff in there. That's the point. That was the whole point of the movie. The For and Capitalism. That's the point of the movie. It is for what it is. It is well executed, what it intended to be. Mm-Hmm. I don't Did you miss, did you miss all the foreshadowing parts in it though? Because the foreshadowing in it was beautiful. Okay. Listen, I watched this movie with my two younger sisters and my youngest sister's friend who, so like. It was weird. It was like, we have to watch it. So I can point out foreshadowing points to you. That's a foreshadow. Okay. But that's a foreshadow. I knew what was going on, right. But also listen, it was kind of like watching porn with my sisters essentially. So it was just weird. Okay. It was just weird. And I didn't know that that's what it was going to be. So I wasn't prepared for that. And it was Christmas time. And it was just an awkward, weird, I was like, this is some weird shit. I, and again, like, listen, so many, uh, chops to that actor guy who plays the, Plays Oliver? Is, uh, what would you say? Perpetrator? I don't know if you would say that. Yeah, I think his name is Oliver. Whatever. The antagonist? Like, yeah, like, props to him as an actor because like, the graveyard scene, like, Yeah, that was a close set. I'm, but I'm saying, even as a closed set, you are, I mean, you're putting your dick out there. Yeah. And he's like, he, he, he did a lot, like I couldn't have done it, right? So, like, good for him that he, you know, that he, as an actor, I was impressed with his, like, chops as an actor, because I'm like, to imagine that you're on a set and you are not, like, a porn star, like, you know? Good for him. I, I don't need to watch it again. I'm good. Yeah. I just, uh, I just remembered the other movie that Nicholas Cage was in that was just, if you guys want a weird movie that is just gonna like, like, what the fuck? Um, if you want to, I've heard that Mandy's supposed to be good. Mandy is. But it's weird. Okay. The Color Out of Space is weird too. Like, but Mandy is weird on a whole other level. Like, there's a lot going on. I watched, uh, the other one that I watched with my sisters was the unbearable weight of massive talent. Um, the Nick Cage one where him and Pedro Pascal and like Pedro Pascal is like in love with him. Right. And is like a huge super fan. Like. It's so, I love a bromance anyway, I do, and it's so good, and it was so fun, and it was so like, perfectly hammed up in all the ways that make me so happy, and I love Nick Cage anyway. It was great, like, it was super great. Yes. I have a list here of all the Nicolas Cage movies. Have you guys heard of the one called The Pig? I've heard of it. I've never watched it. I've heard of it, and I heard that one is also supposed to be good, but like an indie film, I think, right? Like, I kind of want to watch it because it sounds like I'd watch it. It sounds like the one where the guy, the guy's dog gets killed, maybe gets kidnapped and he goes in the John Wick. Yeah, John Wick. I sounds like that, but pig. Okay. Asha and I started the John Wick series and got into half like halfway through the third one and then quit and never watched it and picked it up. We're kind of bad at that. But like we get real close to the end of things and then give up. Yeah, well, uh, we watched, uh, Willy's Wonderland. I love Willy's Wonderland. I love Nick Cage. I love Willy's Wonderland. Have you ever seen that, Sage? Mm mm. Oh, my God. You've never seen Willy's Wonderland? Oh. I don't think so. Do I need to put that on my list? Oh, yeah. You need to watch that, like Willy's Wonderland's a good, good time. You need to watch it, like, tonight. Willy's Wonderland makes my heart happy. It's a Nicolas Cage movie. It came out It's It looks It's 2000 Or, 21. It looks like FNAF. It's fantastic. It's like, so I didn't know what Five Nights at Freddy's was until I watched, we talked about this movie. And like, I didn't know Five Nights at Freddy's was like, basically the same kind of concept, right? The animatronic, evil animatronics, but like, It's just, uh, Nick Cage, just again, I so love Nick Cage for taking on weird indie roles like he does. And he does so well and like, like Nick Cage makes that whole movie, right? It's so weird though. It was like, uh, it is, but it's so well, I don't want to say too much cause she doesn't know. You gotta go watch it. No, go watch Willy's Wonderland. There's like, I watched it again, like a couple of days after we watched it, Johnny with Asia and we laughed so hard, like it's just so good. It's a different Nicholas. I'm just going to say it's a different kind of Nicholas Cage. There's not a lot of something. Let's just put it that way. There's not, but that's kind of one of my favorite things. It's great because it makes no fucking sense. I love it though. And then, um, there's like, uh, I will just say, watch it. The, the pinball stuff, the pinball machine stuff. I love it. Doesn't it bother you? Maybe seven happened. I know all of it. It's a FNAF lore thing. It's, I'm not gonna explain it to you. We'll have a whole other episode where we talk Five Nights at Freddy's and you can tell. We should, we could watch that maybe in like you an episode. Five Nights at Freddy's. You have to go watch all the MatPat Five Nights at Freddy's YouTube Uh, movie theories. Movie theories? Okay. Or game theories. That's what that's called. Game theories. Okay. I believe you. Go watch them all. Watch them all. Every single Five Nights. I have Freddy's Game Theory by MatPat on YouTube. Beautiful. Masterpiece. Masterpiece. I love it. He's retiring this year. That is the worst news I've gotten all year is that he's retiring. Well, whatever. That just means there's room for us to take up some space. We'll, we'll take over Game Theories. Yeah. Why not? I'm, I'm down. Let's do it. We can take over the whole world. We could. Pinky and the brain, brain, brain. Tonight, Pinky, we do the same thing we do every night. Try to take over the world. I love it. Yeah. Okay, so. I think it's a good space to wrap it up, even though I would probably, like, bring up, oh, Pinky and the Brain makes me think of Ren and Stimpy, I don't know why. Probably just the timing of it, Ren and Stimpy, when I was a kid, but Ren and Stimpy's also, like, raunchy and terrible. I mean, see, that's one good thing about when we were growing up. We had cartoons like Ren and Stimpy and Like, there's, that, I think of that all the time, like Crazy shit. There's no way Ren and Stimpy would be on anymore. Do you guys, have you guys seen Courage the Cowardly Dog? That's a good one. I love Courage. I remember cat dog. I remember angry cat dog. Um, dog is a good one. Dog was good. Okay. But like the first episode of Brennan Stimpy, they make a pitcher catcher reference that like, they're obviously supposed to be a gay couple. Like there's some, there's some stuff in there that I'm like, You can't get away with these like adult jokes or double entendres or, I mean, there's a lot of it obviously. Not anymore. That you're not allowed to do anymore, even, not in a kid's cartoon, but like. Yeah. And that is so sad. Yeah, for sure. Is it, does your generation wish that there was a little bit more, I don't know, what would you call it? Well, so it's hard. So there's two different versions of our generation. So you have the Zillennials, who grew up in the millennial phases. Okay. And then you have. The other half, who is not the same at all. So they don't have any idea what we're talking about? No. Okay. They don't. There's so much to keep track of. I know. I, let me tell you what. Luckily, luckily you ran into me, who is a Zillennial, who understands almost every single reference. And now, you can, Sage the Intern, she's our translator. Right, for sure. I am a translator! You're like, translate between the generations for us. That's so nice. Sage, we appreciate you. I'm so sorry that when you said hot topic, I thought we were starting a store with poke. It's all right. It's good. It's good to have someone, Johnny, that will teach us the things so that we understand the younger kids are doing. Cause Elena's just our, our niece. Who's like, Oh gosh, how old is she now? I don't even know. Is she, she's, she's bitty. She's like 10. So is that Jen Alpha? Is she Jen Alpha? I would. I mean, let me tell you what, Alpha describes Alayna 100%. Yeah. Like, that makes it, if it's true, it'd make a lot of sense to me. Yeah, Alayna. Alayna's got a, she's got a personality, that's for sure. Yeah. Like alpha is Elena a hundred percent that is accurate. I always, uh, I always tell her I'll play games with her. But then she gets sidetracked and then I never bring it up. So I don't have to play games with her. She gets so pissed when she has to go home. Cause then you know, you didn't play games with her. You ran out of time. What am I going to do? You gotta go. You can't spend the night. You gotta go home. Oh, but she, but she does. I mean. Man, Elena. She just gets what she wants. Good for her. Is she an iPad kid? Um, she plays on the computer and stuff. Yeah. Like, I think she does all of it. That's not the same. She doesn't really hang out in Wishing too much. So, I don't know. I don't know. I've had, yeah, I've had kids are another rough topic for your generation, like kids that grew up with iPads in school and stuff. No, see, we're not the generation who would be iPad kids. Our generation still went outside and touched the grass, but we're talking about, I didn't know that was a thing that was not done anymore. No, it's not done anymore. Okay. Not that often. Parenting doesn't happen as. You know what? Parenting with trauma doesn't happen as good as it used to. I'll say it. I'll say it out loud. The trauma I have formed me into the person I am today. Where is that in our younger generation? All they do is complain at Sephora. That they don't have retinols. All they do is complain at Sephora. That's amazing. I love that. That's pretty great. All they do is complain at Sephora. That's a t shirt, Sage the Intern. I like it. Don't even get me started. Don't even get her started. We won't. We'll save it for another episode. Sage the Intern, thank you for joining us for Johnny Haley Day of Fun. You've been a fun guest. For sure. And let's, let's have you back again to talk some more stuff. Yeah. I think it would be fun to have, like, a movie episode. We'll all watch a movie and then we'll discuss it. I think we should. We'll have a movie club. We'll have to find, we'll have to find something that we all haven't seen. But we can find it. Actually, I just saw a movie and I want, I'm glad you said that because I wanted to tell both of you that we should watch it and have an episode about it. It's called After Yang. It's got Colin Farrell in it. And it's about this family that has an AI robot. That malfunctions and after the malfunction and they like crack open the core process or whatever and they access they accidentally access old memories that this AI has from a previous. Past life. So I don't know. I didn't quite understand all of it exactly, but it looks really interesting and it's about AI. And you know, I love AI. So I was like, we need to watch it after Yang and it's on Amazon prime Amazon prime. Okay. Yes. Let's watch it and talk about it because you know, I love AI. And I, you know what? Colin Farrell is really great too. I love him in Ambrose. I like him. He's good stuff. Awesome. Look at that plan for next time. Thanks for joining us. Sage, the intern. Yeah, I've been Haley.
