00:00:18,551 --> 00:00:21,391
Whoa, that, the violin didn't
scare me that much, Courtney.
2
00:00:22,561 --> 00:00:24,251
The witch laughing didn't
scare me that much.
3
00:00:24,251 --> 00:00:25,031
You know why, though?
4
00:00:25,051 --> 00:00:28,151
Because I am hyped up this week
for the Witch Movie Project.
5
00:00:28,901 --> 00:00:33,231
I know it's a couple days late,
but we've got a really good reason.
6
00:00:38,161 --> 00:00:38,831
to pull it back
7
00:00:39,131 --> 00:00:39,311
We
8
00:00:39,451 --> 00:00:40,041
a little bit.
9
00:00:40,721 --> 00:00:47,541
we've actually got interview with one
of these stars from one of these movies.
10
00:00:47,606 --> 00:00:49,566
During
11
00:00:49,931 --> 00:00:52,861
I never in a million years
thought that was going to happen.
12
00:00:52,871 --> 00:00:57,831
That was just total alignment of
the universe being like, Oh, you're
13
00:00:57,831 --> 00:00:59,401
going to talk about this movie?
14
00:00:59,711 --> 00:01:02,881
Well, then we're going to put this
person right here in your lap to
15
00:01:02,921 --> 00:01:05,601
actually come in physical contact with.
16
00:01:06,301 --> 00:01:06,871
That's amazing.
17
00:01:08,426 --> 00:01:11,036
the same week that this episode aired.
18
00:01:11,481 --> 00:01:11,881
I know.
19
00:01:11,976 --> 00:01:13,316
that's what I can't, I can't believe.
20
00:01:13,316 --> 00:01:14,806
So that's why it's a little bit late.
21
00:01:15,616 --> 00:01:19,556
Our two movies, we're not going
to tell you who the actor is that
22
00:01:19,566 --> 00:01:23,586
we talked to, but our two movies
are Teen Witch and The Craft.
23
00:01:25,231 --> 00:01:25,911
To the best.
24
00:01:26,106 --> 00:01:30,496
let's talk about this though, because
October 26th is when this all comes
25
00:01:30,496 --> 00:01:35,126
to the culmination of the big event at
Novel Daybreak by Crested Communities.
26
00:01:36,706 --> 00:01:37,786
Tell us about that, Courtney.
27
00:01:37,856 --> 00:01:38,606
Can you wait for that?
28
00:01:38,636 --> 00:01:39,196
I can't.
29
00:01:39,651 --> 00:01:40,291
Oh my gosh.
30
00:01:40,321 --> 00:01:40,841
It's like.
31
00:01:41,381 --> 00:01:46,551
My entire life right now is leading
up to this one moment in time when
32
00:01:46,561 --> 00:01:51,906
hopefully we will have lots of people
joining us for our live podcast
33
00:01:52,206 --> 00:01:52,506
Yes.
34
00:01:52,511 --> 00:01:55,261
and movie screening of
one of these witch movies.
35
00:01:55,651 --> 00:01:57,561
We're gonna have a costume contest.
36
00:01:57,801 --> 00:01:59,381
We're gonna have people dress up.
37
00:01:59,631 --> 00:02:00,921
It's gonna be a blast.
38
00:02:00,951 --> 00:02:02,041
October 26th.
39
00:02:02,641 --> 00:02:06,331
We are actually starting a
little bit early, so we said 6 p.
40
00:02:06,331 --> 00:02:06,471
m.
41
00:02:06,471 --> 00:02:10,861
for the movie, but I do have
like some fun things going on
42
00:02:10,881 --> 00:02:12,201
at Land of a Thousand Hills.
43
00:02:12,366 --> 00:02:17,746
Coffee shop, which is right across the
courtyard from where the clubhouse is.
44
00:02:18,226 --> 00:02:21,236
So we decided to do just kind
of a meet and greet earlier.
45
00:02:22,016 --> 00:02:25,516
So before the event starts,
come to Land of a Thousand Hills
46
00:02:26,046 --> 00:02:27,396
and do a little meet and greet.
47
00:02:27,426 --> 00:02:29,456
They've got drinks, they've got food.
48
00:02:29,496 --> 00:02:32,886
So you can, you know, get a little
refreshment before the event starts.
49
00:02:33,371 --> 00:02:33,951
I love that.
50
00:02:33,961 --> 00:02:38,011
And Land of a Thousand Hills, they're
actually sponsoring the costume contest.
51
00:02:38,021 --> 00:02:42,181
So they're going to be providing
costume contest winners with prizes.
52
00:02:42,361 --> 00:02:44,301
I don't know what those prizes
look like yet, but I bet it's
53
00:02:44,301 --> 00:02:45,061
going to be some good stuff.
54
00:02:45,511 --> 00:02:48,901
Thank you to Stacey, Pure Sweat,
and Float Studio South Jordan.
55
00:02:49,351 --> 00:02:53,241
And also, Cake Parties is going
to be putting on this event.
56
00:02:53,611 --> 00:02:54,711
It's going to be incredible in there.
57
00:02:54,711 --> 00:02:56,931
I don't even know what we, I
don't know what to expect yet.
58
00:02:57,001 --> 00:02:57,971
Like, it's going to be wild.
59
00:02:58,516 --> 00:03:00,716
I just expect it to be a really good time.
60
00:03:01,136 --> 00:03:02,196
Which is Night Out.
61
00:03:02,196 --> 00:03:03,576
Oh
62
00:03:03,876 --> 00:03:07,616
Night Out, what, what movie so
far that we've done are you hoping
63
00:03:07,616 --> 00:03:09,606
to see get screened that night?
64
00:03:10,136 --> 00:03:15,196
man, I didn't expect to like Suspiria
so much, but that's the one that
65
00:03:15,196 --> 00:03:16,486
keeps coming back in my head.
66
00:03:16,956 --> 00:03:20,386
Suspiria has got a tight, it's,
I've seen the voting on that and
67
00:03:20,486 --> 00:03:20,986
Yeah, I
68
00:03:21,016 --> 00:03:23,416
one that's really, really back and forth.
69
00:03:23,756 --> 00:03:27,586
know, but we got some movies coming up in
the next few episodes too that are some
70
00:03:27,586 --> 00:03:29,596
of my favorites, so it's hard to tell.
71
00:03:29,896 --> 00:03:31,036
one of my favorites is coming up.
72
00:03:31,066 --> 00:03:36,016
My pick is coming up, not in this episode,
it's coming up, we'll see in a couple.
73
00:03:36,766 --> 00:03:38,176
But let's go ahead and get into this one.
74
00:03:38,176 --> 00:03:39,996
This is Teen Witch versus The Craft.
75
00:03:41,636 --> 00:03:42,386
Hope you enjoy it.
76
00:03:42,576 --> 00:03:45,226
we've watched how many
witch movies so far?
77
00:03:46,346 --> 00:03:46,826
Four?
78
00:03:46,856 --> 00:03:47,696
We up to four?
79
00:03:47,866 --> 00:03:49,356
Yeah, four.
80
00:03:50,151 --> 00:03:51,576
And they've all been, what, horror movies?
81
00:03:51,811 --> 00:03:56,971
Just straight up scare
after scare after scare.
82
00:03:56,971 --> 00:03:59,831
Because I think I'm the one that
shows off for the first ones, right?
83
00:04:00,106 --> 00:04:00,301
It just
84
00:04:00,406 --> 00:04:02,736
Right, yeah, we each
had our list of picks.
85
00:04:03,766 --> 00:04:05,566
I felt like we needed a palette cleanser.
86
00:04:05,706 --> 00:04:06,276
What do you think?
87
00:04:07,201 --> 00:04:10,926
Yeah.
88
00:04:11,226 --> 00:04:11,561
episode.
89
00:04:12,001 --> 00:04:14,071
Just, you, I, I know you have.
90
00:04:14,351 --> 00:04:18,181
And do you want to
introduce these two movies?
91
00:04:18,181 --> 00:04:22,661
Or should I set them up and tell the
people what we're going to dive into
92
00:04:22,661 --> 00:04:24,161
without saying the names of the movies?
93
00:04:24,371 --> 00:04:26,051
Even though they can see it,
but I love doing it this way
94
00:04:26,051 --> 00:04:26,831
because it's kind of fun.
95
00:04:27,361 --> 00:04:27,691
But.
96
00:04:29,141 --> 00:04:37,231
We're gonna dive into the world,
wicked world and good world, of teenage
97
00:04:37,481 --> 00:04:41,891
witchcraft that we did not, we didn't
even think about this when we paired
98
00:04:41,891 --> 00:04:49,451
these two movies up, but it's teenage
witchcraft, high school drama, 80s, 90s,
99
00:04:49,451 --> 00:04:52,641
you got the late, late 80s, one from 89,
100
00:04:53,226 --> 00:04:53,766
Yeah,
101
00:04:53,951 --> 00:04:56,361
you got one from mid 90s, late 90s,
102
00:04:57,026 --> 00:04:57,366
I know.
103
00:04:57,366 --> 00:04:58,696
And so different.
104
00:04:59,146 --> 00:05:04,286
When you look at like one from the 80s,
it was like the peak of 80s hair, 80s
105
00:05:04,496 --> 00:05:07,766
clothes, 80s music style, all of that.
106
00:05:08,356 --> 00:05:13,906
And then you have mid 90s and
it's like peak 90s, right?
107
00:05:14,366 --> 00:05:16,906
way, way not edgy.
108
00:05:16,936 --> 00:05:17,876
It was, you know what?
109
00:05:17,896 --> 00:05:23,096
It feels like they were made in
two totally different time periods.
110
00:05:23,796 --> 00:05:25,976
Yeah, and it wasn't even that many years
111
00:05:26,146 --> 00:05:30,506
years, seven years apart is all like,
that's the thing to me to think about.
112
00:05:30,536 --> 00:05:34,536
Now that we put that into perspective,
not only that, but there are other
113
00:05:34,536 --> 00:05:40,336
similarities along with this, and it
couldn't be too, uh, More different
114
00:05:40,346 --> 00:05:45,716
movies, honestly, but even the, the,
the lead characters in both the Robins,
115
00:05:45,736 --> 00:05:48,816
the battle of the Robins, you got Robin
on one side and Robin on the other.
116
00:05:49,621 --> 00:05:51,251
all of that was unintentional.
117
00:05:51,291 --> 00:05:55,621
I knew that these were both teen
witch movies, teenagers being
118
00:05:55,621 --> 00:05:59,031
witches, and that's why I paired them
together thinking that would be good.
119
00:05:59,921 --> 00:06:03,901
When I watched them both back to
back, I could not believe how many
120
00:06:03,931 --> 00:06:09,341
things were, like, connected, or
even though they're so different,
121
00:06:09,651 --> 00:06:11,011
totally different types of movies.
122
00:06:11,105 --> 00:06:17,216
One is very cheesy, one is, like, very,
like, Even the people who were in it
123
00:06:17,216 --> 00:06:19,056
were like, Ugh, that was terrible.
124
00:06:19,666 --> 00:06:20,826
Over the top cheesy.
125
00:06:20,826 --> 00:06:22,066
I think, I feel like it's on purpose.
126
00:06:22,076 --> 00:06:23,036
It's gotta be on purpose.
127
00:06:23,106 --> 00:06:23,336
Yeah.
128
00:06:23,916 --> 00:06:24,276
For sure.
129
00:06:24,576 --> 00:06:26,286
go ahead and what is that first movie?
130
00:06:26,316 --> 00:06:27,866
What's the, what's the first
one we're talking about there?
131
00:06:28,576 --> 00:06:31,706
Of course, the 1989 Teen Witch,
132
00:06:32,196 --> 00:06:32,736
Yes.
133
00:06:33,086 --> 00:06:35,866
it was Hollywood's response to Teen Wolf,
134
00:06:36,286 --> 00:06:36,956
Which,
135
00:06:36,956 --> 00:06:37,866
a female
136
00:06:38,006 --> 00:06:39,006
let me tell you this.
137
00:06:39,006 --> 00:06:43,846
Now I'm going to, I will say, you
know, before I watched, I did dip off
138
00:06:43,846 --> 00:06:46,676
into some of my medicinal cannabis.
139
00:06:48,716 --> 00:06:54,616
Which leads me to putting on Teen Witch
and getting about 15 to 20 minutes in
140
00:06:54,616 --> 00:06:56,326
and thinking, where is Michael J Fox?
141
00:06:58,226 --> 00:06:59,136
Like that's really what I
142
00:06:59,246 --> 00:07:00,326
Love to have Michael J.
143
00:07:00,326 --> 00:07:01,486
Fox in this movie, by the way.
144
00:07:01,766 --> 00:07:02,476
I would have loved that.
145
00:07:02,606 --> 00:07:03,426
Oh, absolutely.
146
00:07:03,426 --> 00:07:06,376
But tell me, what do you know
about the, the, the, uh, the
147
00:07:06,376 --> 00:07:08,206
Teen Wolf slash Teen Witch?
148
00:07:09,156 --> 00:07:12,636
Yeah, so it's interesting because,
um, and by the way, Mental Floss is
149
00:07:12,636 --> 00:07:14,356
again coming in with all the facts.
150
00:07:14,706 --> 00:07:17,696
Super love, I mean, for some reason
that's what always comes up when I'm
151
00:07:17,696 --> 00:07:19,700
looking for cool, interesting facts.
152
00:07:19,806 --> 00:07:25,836
But They had released, or they were
wanting to release Teen Witch as a,
153
00:07:26,156 --> 00:07:31,076
like, an offshoot of Teen Wolf and
have the same kind of font, logo,
154
00:07:31,086 --> 00:07:36,306
poster, style, um, you know, maybe
kind of like reaching out to the female
155
00:07:36,336 --> 00:07:40,586
aud audiences, uh, for comparison.
156
00:07:40,616 --> 00:07:44,586
But once they made the movie, they
realized it kind of sits on its own.
157
00:07:44,676 --> 00:07:48,596
It was its own thing, and so they
didn't end up kind of partnering them.
158
00:07:49,531 --> 00:07:52,411
Well, that makes a little more
sense because like you said, the
159
00:07:52,411 --> 00:07:56,751
font, even the font on the, the,
uh, the artwork, it's the same.
160
00:07:56,751 --> 00:08:02,511
It's, it's, it's wild how they had
that common, they had that, uh,
161
00:08:02,591 --> 00:08:06,266
crossover and then, and then cut it,
I guess, somewhere in the production
162
00:08:06,566 --> 00:08:09,896
Yeah, didn't end up having like
as much of a crossover, but yeah.
163
00:08:10,196 --> 00:08:10,331
Yeah.
164
00:08:10,331 --> 00:08:15,361
So tell us, um, the plot, like
what's the plot of, of Teen Witch?
165
00:08:15,431 --> 00:08:16,986
And,
166
00:08:17,286 --> 00:08:18,076
is what I loved.
167
00:08:18,086 --> 00:08:21,736
I watched it when I was younger, so
this is me bringing it back and kind of
168
00:08:21,736 --> 00:08:26,046
doing the whole watch a movie from your
childhood and see how does it hold up?
169
00:08:26,056 --> 00:08:27,566
How do I feel about it now as an adult?
170
00:08:28,196 --> 00:08:34,841
And I loved like, Opening sequence,
there's the whole 80s MTV music vibes with
171
00:08:35,001 --> 00:08:39,351
mist and, you know, the hair is rocking.
172
00:08:39,361 --> 00:08:43,701
There's glitter, slow motion
walking, all that good stuff.
173
00:08:43,701 --> 00:08:44,821
It's so 80s.
174
00:08:44,841 --> 00:08:45,751
It's fantastic.
175
00:08:49,431 --> 00:08:55,531
um, let's not forget that the, um,
the music right here in the beginning.
176
00:08:55,531 --> 00:08:58,591
Is this when we hear, what's
the, what's the song we hear?
177
00:08:58,591 --> 00:09:03,971
We hear, uh, the, the rap song here
from, um, from the, from the boys.
178
00:09:04,061 --> 00:09:06,461
And I believe it's the high school blues.
179
00:09:07,171 --> 00:09:12,611
Yeah, High School Blues, these
three white boys rappin And, you
180
00:09:12,611 --> 00:09:16,121
know what's interesting is, there
was no soundtrack to the movie.
181
00:09:16,221 --> 00:09:20,031
They didn't, even though there's a
couple of musical numbers, kind of.
182
00:09:21,291 --> 00:09:25,761
There's cheerleaders dancing
in the, um, in the locker room.
183
00:09:26,061 --> 00:09:26,531
Oh yeah.
184
00:09:26,831 --> 00:09:28,451
number about boys.
185
00:09:28,511 --> 00:09:29,571
I like boys, or
186
00:09:29,871 --> 00:09:30,071
Yep.
187
00:09:30,381 --> 00:09:31,941
This was a, it was a musical.
188
00:09:31,941 --> 00:09:32,911
There was a musical going
189
00:09:32,931 --> 00:09:34,991
Yeah, but they didn't make a soundtrack.
190
00:09:34,991 --> 00:09:38,161
They didn't record anything
and release the soundtrack.
191
00:09:38,671 --> 00:09:43,381
And so they had to redo it years later
with some other vocalists, some other
192
00:09:43,381 --> 00:09:47,771
people that redid the music, and then
they could release those, um, they even
193
00:09:47,771 --> 00:09:52,111
did a Teen Witch, um, they tried to do
a Teen Witch musical, maybe on Broadway.
194
00:09:52,756 --> 00:09:55,531
Um, Will Ferrell was
involved, Kristen Wiig.
195
00:09:55,861 --> 00:09:59,571
Some people were gonna, um, kind
of revive Teen Witch as a musical.
196
00:09:59,701 --> 00:10:00,181
So
197
00:10:00,571 --> 00:10:03,821
I think that there's actually,
uh, a teen witch live.
198
00:10:04,686 --> 00:10:08,266
If it's not still there, it was
maybe a couple of years ago at the
199
00:10:08,266 --> 00:10:10,636
Groundlings Theater in Los Angeles.
200
00:10:11,221 --> 00:10:11,541
yeah.
201
00:10:11,541 --> 00:10:11,616
Yeah.
202
00:10:11,916 --> 00:10:13,176
Might still be there, not sure.
203
00:10:13,836 --> 00:10:19,636
Um, but it's, it's, uh, very,
it's very obvious to me also.
204
00:10:20,309 --> 00:10:25,986
This was one of the first movies that,
for the white kids, sure, we look,
205
00:10:26,196 --> 00:10:28,406
now, yeah, it's, it's, it's hilarious.
206
00:10:28,406 --> 00:10:31,346
You look back at these, these
three rappers, and here's, I got
207
00:10:31,346 --> 00:10:34,666
the lyrics, here's taking our
time when we're feeling cool.
208
00:10:34,926 --> 00:10:37,094
Don't really need a bag hanging at school.
209
00:10:37,506 --> 00:10:38,066
It's okay.
210
00:10:38,066 --> 00:10:39,436
We got nothing to lose.
211
00:10:40,706 --> 00:10:41,716
Can't you see, baby?
212
00:10:41,726 --> 00:10:42,906
It's the high school blues.
213
00:10:43,126 --> 00:10:44,106
Now, like,
214
00:10:46,156 --> 00:10:47,256
sure, I love it.
215
00:10:47,296 --> 00:10:47,846
I laughed.
216
00:10:47,916 --> 00:10:48,726
I thought it was great.
217
00:10:48,756 --> 00:10:53,496
But, you know what I gotta do is give
credit here because this is one of
218
00:10:53,496 --> 00:10:58,316
the first movies that I can recall
that did not stereotype whoever
219
00:10:58,316 --> 00:11:00,976
was on the other side of the music.
220
00:11:01,456 --> 00:11:03,826
If you would have seen a group
of white kids in another movie,
221
00:11:03,856 --> 00:11:04,736
it would have been rock music.
222
00:11:04,756 --> 00:11:07,326
It would have been Fast
Times at Ridgemont High.
223
00:11:07,326 --> 00:11:08,576
It wouldn't have been hip hop music.
224
00:11:08,946 --> 00:11:10,596
I really gotta give a
shout out right there.
225
00:11:10,931 --> 00:11:16,171
And give credit to whoever's decision
that was as corny as it looks.
226
00:11:16,471 --> 00:11:16,706
corny.
227
00:11:17,236 --> 00:11:18,081
I, yeah,
228
00:11:18,381 --> 00:11:20,831
did, I did appreciate, I had
an appreciation for that.
229
00:11:21,916 --> 00:11:22,386
that's awesome.
230
00:11:22,386 --> 00:11:25,776
I think I would have maybe paid money to
see you watch that for the first time.
231
00:11:26,101 --> 00:11:28,731
Oh, I'm going to tell you now.
232
00:11:29,711 --> 00:11:30,031
Okay.
233
00:11:30,031 --> 00:11:32,261
So we haven't told the people
this is, this is the first
234
00:11:32,261 --> 00:11:33,321
time I have seen this movie
235
00:11:34,236 --> 00:11:34,606
Okay.
236
00:11:34,741 --> 00:11:35,861
was my first watch of
237
00:11:36,006 --> 00:11:36,486
Love it.
238
00:11:37,291 --> 00:11:43,061
Um, I will say that I had it on and
maybe I leaned over for a minute
239
00:11:43,101 --> 00:11:45,091
and I was looking at something else.
240
00:11:45,686 --> 00:11:49,556
And part hit and I was like,
whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
241
00:11:49,556 --> 00:11:52,296
And I hit, I grabbed the, I grabbed
the controller here on the Apple TV.
242
00:11:52,296 --> 00:11:54,426
And I, I had to run it
back and start it over.
243
00:11:55,336 --> 00:11:57,136
I mean, I pulled up the
lyrics for it, Courtney.
244
00:11:57,146 --> 00:11:57,416
I mean,
245
00:11:57,526 --> 00:11:57,926
Yeah.
246
00:11:58,056 --> 00:11:59,156
Yeah, definitely.
247
00:11:59,186 --> 00:12:01,226
I think the music is where it's at with,
248
00:12:01,896 --> 00:12:02,406
It's in my,
249
00:12:02,446 --> 00:12:02,696
you.
250
00:12:02,736 --> 00:12:04,726
I think you, yeah, you'll
pay attention to that.
251
00:12:04,756 --> 00:12:07,196
And by the way, we're talking
about the musical numbers,
252
00:12:07,216 --> 00:12:08,656
the, uh, the cheerleader dance.
253
00:12:08,686 --> 00:12:09,476
I like boys.
254
00:12:09,496 --> 00:12:10,766
They do in the locker room.
255
00:12:11,106 --> 00:12:14,096
That is the only appearance
you'll see of Rita Wilson, who
256
00:12:14,096 --> 00:12:15,186
was one of the dancers there.
257
00:12:15,486 --> 00:12:16,026
no way.
258
00:12:16,631 --> 00:12:16,971
Yeah.
259
00:12:17,631 --> 00:12:22,001
So then I thought, thinking back at when
I watched this movie when I was a kid,
260
00:12:22,011 --> 00:12:24,081
I was like, yeah, I remember that movie.
261
00:12:24,111 --> 00:12:26,231
I only remember one person in it.
262
00:12:26,331 --> 00:12:29,321
I, I thought everyone else is
probably like a no name person.
263
00:12:29,321 --> 00:12:31,561
You probably, they probably
weren't in anything else.
264
00:12:32,081 --> 00:12:34,341
I couldn't remember
anything about anyone else.
265
00:12:34,871 --> 00:12:40,136
The only person I remember from it was,
um, see her name, Zelda Rubinstein.
266
00:12:40,436 --> 00:12:41,166
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
267
00:12:41,521 --> 00:12:43,141
Cause I love the poltergeist movie.
268
00:12:43,341 --> 00:12:47,231
I mean, she's infamous
for being the medium and.
269
00:12:47,531 --> 00:12:49,921
This house is clear.
270
00:12:50,021 --> 00:12:51,671
Yeah, yeah, oh absolutely.
271
00:12:51,861 --> 00:12:56,981
Yeah, that's, maybe, I think you
could be a good remake for, if
272
00:12:56,981 --> 00:12:59,681
they remake the Poltergeist, maybe
you could step into that role.
273
00:13:00,131 --> 00:13:00,741
Sign me up.
274
00:13:01,041 --> 00:13:03,271
Yeah, I think that'd be
you, cause that, what, that
275
00:13:03,271 --> 00:13:04,061
I love her.
276
00:13:04,611 --> 00:13:08,036
what you just did there, that's,
that's, Hey, that's top notch, Courtney.
277
00:13:08,326 --> 00:13:10,206
That's Oscar award winning.
278
00:13:10,801 --> 00:13:11,221
Yeah.
279
00:13:11,291 --> 00:13:12,731
Well, she's adorable.
280
00:13:12,771 --> 00:13:14,021
She's four foot three.
281
00:13:14,491 --> 00:13:18,851
She's got that adorable voice and she is
hilarious in this movie as Madam Serena.
282
00:13:18,901 --> 00:13:19,701
I love her.
283
00:13:20,041 --> 00:13:23,301
And I remembered her being in it,
but then I look at the rest of the
284
00:13:23,301 --> 00:13:25,921
cast and there's Robin Lively, right?
285
00:13:25,961 --> 00:13:30,066
We talked about how it's a Robin in
this movie and a Robin in The Craft.
286
00:13:31,041 --> 00:13:33,321
Sorry if I spoiled it, that's the
other movie we're doing today.
287
00:13:33,886 --> 00:13:37,030
If they hadn't figured
it out by now, then yeah.
288
00:13:37,330 --> 00:13:41,071
yeah, well, and it's interesting
because I was like, Oh, you
289
00:13:41,131 --> 00:13:42,401
know, this girl's cute, whatever.
290
00:13:42,441 --> 00:13:44,231
And I'm looking up the,
you know, the details.
291
00:13:44,231 --> 00:13:47,701
I'm like, Robin Lively
is Blake Lively's sister.
292
00:13:47,701 --> 00:13:48,343
What?
293
00:13:50,501 --> 00:13:52,001
How relevant is that right now?
294
00:13:52,121 --> 00:13:53,301
She's all over the news.
295
00:13:53,471 --> 00:13:56,211
Her husband, Ryan Reynolds,
they're so in right now.
296
00:13:56,656 --> 00:13:57,046
yeah.
297
00:13:57,176 --> 00:13:57,786
Oh yeah.
298
00:13:57,856 --> 00:14:01,526
And then you have, you got some other
heavy hitters in the movie as well.
299
00:14:01,536 --> 00:14:05,436
Like it's not, it doesn't, you know,
there's who else, who else did you,
300
00:14:05,486 --> 00:14:06,886
did you pick out before I get into
301
00:14:06,941 --> 00:14:08,791
Yeah, so this is what's super interesting.
302
00:14:08,791 --> 00:14:11,611
I always thought the brother
was kind of this like creepy.
303
00:14:11,621 --> 00:14:15,231
He does a really good job of
being this creepy, disgusting,
304
00:14:15,251 --> 00:14:16,521
annoying little brother.
305
00:14:16,859 --> 00:14:18,131
He was 14 at the time.
306
00:14:18,151 --> 00:14:19,731
Joshua Miller plays him.
307
00:14:20,211 --> 00:14:26,321
And what's so interesting about him
is he is like, Um, famous family.
308
00:14:26,801 --> 00:14:31,271
I'm reading here on, um, the Mental
Floss article about this movie,
309
00:14:31,271 --> 00:14:37,421
but he's the son of, uh, playwright
Jason Miller, who's Oscar nominated.
310
00:14:38,201 --> 00:14:42,791
Um, he has a grandfather, Bruno
Bernard, who's one of the world's first
311
00:14:42,791 --> 00:14:50,911
celebrity photographers, and he is, um,
in the new movie with Russell Crowe.
312
00:14:53,086 --> 00:14:54,576
It's the exorcism.
313
00:14:56,256 --> 00:14:58,076
I've seen, I saw the Exorcism movie.
314
00:14:58,076 --> 00:15:00,676
Now, I don't want to get too
far off topic, but that movie.
315
00:15:01,416 --> 00:15:02,046
Not too bad.
316
00:15:02,046 --> 00:15:02,896
I don't know if you've seen it yet.
317
00:15:02,946 --> 00:15:03,486
You should check that
318
00:15:03,666 --> 00:15:08,936
No, but I mean, what a perfect movie
to go right in through this genre that
319
00:15:08,936 --> 00:15:10,946
we're, you know, already talking about.
320
00:15:10,966 --> 00:15:14,156
He's in, he's, you know, he's rocking it.
321
00:15:14,486 --> 00:15:16,306
So, good for him.
322
00:15:16,776 --> 00:15:17,786
Good for Joshua Miller.
323
00:15:17,916 --> 00:15:18,836
That's all I can say about that.
324
00:15:18,976 --> 00:15:19,386
right.
325
00:15:19,386 --> 00:15:20,796
And what do you, who else you got there?
326
00:15:20,816 --> 00:15:21,346
Who else you got?
327
00:15:21,936 --> 00:15:26,466
Okay, so, uh, Louise, the main
character, played by Robin Lively,
328
00:15:26,476 --> 00:15:29,226
she's, uh, got a famous dad.
329
00:15:29,666 --> 00:15:33,116
I know when we were, like, watching,
I kept thinking, he looks so familiar.
330
00:15:33,266 --> 00:15:34,036
Who is he?
331
00:15:34,656 --> 00:15:39,596
And then it's funny because in the
craft to connect those movies, there's a
332
00:15:39,596 --> 00:15:41,586
scene where they're watching Bewitched.
333
00:15:41,886 --> 00:15:45,276
Oh, and he's, ah, I see.
334
00:15:45,286 --> 00:15:45,956
Look at you making a
335
00:15:45,976 --> 00:15:49,606
Dick Sargent, it plays, uh,
Louise's father, he's Darren
336
00:15:49,606 --> 00:15:50,836
Stevens from Bewitched.
337
00:15:50,886 --> 00:15:53,126
And I know, I don't want to get
too far off topic, but we don't
338
00:15:53,136 --> 00:15:54,536
talk about Bewitched in this movie.
339
00:15:55,056 --> 00:15:59,356
Witch movie project because it's a
TV show, but I will say one thing.
340
00:15:59,376 --> 00:16:02,576
I watched a lot of Bewitched when
I was a kid, lots of Bewitched.
341
00:16:03,296 --> 00:16:07,476
And I always felt so frustrated
that Darren would not let his
342
00:16:07,476 --> 00:16:09,376
wife practice her witchcraft.
343
00:16:09,556 --> 00:16:10,816
She's a witch, Darren.
344
00:16:11,066 --> 00:16:12,526
Kay, you're married to a witch.
345
00:16:13,106 --> 00:16:14,496
How is, how fair is that?
346
00:16:14,936 --> 00:16:19,076
Just, just take advantage of the fact
that you have this amazing, awesome wife
347
00:16:19,136 --> 00:16:21,896
and stop trying to harsh her vibe, right?
348
00:16:22,196 --> 00:16:22,606
Right.
349
00:16:22,656 --> 00:16:23,186
I mean,
350
00:16:23,806 --> 00:16:25,246
That's all I have to say about that, okay?
351
00:16:25,286 --> 00:16:27,116
I just had to, I just
had to rant for a second.
352
00:16:27,256 --> 00:16:28,406
You can rant all you want.
353
00:16:29,016 --> 00:16:30,776
it irritated me so much as a kid.
354
00:16:30,786 --> 00:16:35,196
Here was little five year old Courtney
watching Nick at Night, Bewitched, and
355
00:16:35,196 --> 00:16:38,676
I was like, Why is he such a jerk to his
356
00:16:38,976 --> 00:16:39,806
Hold it down.
357
00:16:40,096 --> 00:16:43,726
That's just, we can get into
that about how society's been.
358
00:16:44,286 --> 00:16:44,966
Know what we better not?
359
00:16:45,951 --> 00:16:46,701
Yeah, well,
360
00:16:46,716 --> 00:16:46,986
rant?
361
00:16:47,321 --> 00:16:51,001
that's, that's, that is, there's
a lot I could say about that.
362
00:16:51,001 --> 00:16:51,691
I could go on for a
363
00:16:51,746 --> 00:16:53,406
yeah, so let's not do that
364
00:16:53,511 --> 00:16:55,861
was in both movies, I
wanted to point that out.
365
00:16:55,971 --> 00:16:59,651
But yeah, he plays her dad, so
he makes a couple of appearances
366
00:16:59,691 --> 00:17:03,481
in this movie, so that's kind of
a little cameo nod to Bewitched.
367
00:17:04,031 --> 00:17:04,831
It's kind of cute.
368
00:17:05,196 --> 00:17:06,586
Wow, that's a great one there.
369
00:17:06,696 --> 00:17:07,356
What else you got?
370
00:17:07,366 --> 00:17:08,026
Who else you got?
371
00:17:08,476 --> 00:17:09,116
I like this.
372
00:17:09,116 --> 00:17:10,056
Let's see what else you got.
373
00:17:10,611 --> 00:17:16,001
So, I've been dying to ask
you, so, In this movie, she's
374
00:17:16,101 --> 00:17:17,771
finding out she turned 16.
375
00:17:17,781 --> 00:17:22,551
She's getting powers for her, uh,
a lot of movies about teen witches
376
00:17:22,551 --> 00:17:25,421
are kind of along those lines that
there's a theme there where it's
377
00:17:25,471 --> 00:17:28,251
like you reach a certain age, you're
going to come into your powers.
378
00:17:28,941 --> 00:17:32,141
And that's what Louise is discovering
about herself, but she's centering
379
00:17:32,141 --> 00:17:36,701
it around how much she has this
crush on this football player boy.
380
00:17:36,711 --> 00:17:40,081
He's the popular boy in school
and she wants to get him.
381
00:17:40,471 --> 00:17:43,531
Did you recognize him, Brad?
382
00:17:43,886 --> 00:17:44,536
I did not.
383
00:17:46,346 --> 00:17:46,766
I did not.
384
00:17:46,806 --> 00:17:49,516
I, I, I, not off the top of my head.
385
00:17:49,556 --> 00:17:50,076
I did not.
386
00:17:51,736 --> 00:17:51,916
I
387
00:17:51,986 --> 00:17:56,886
of your favorite shows, he makes a cameo
appearances in one of your favorite shows.
388
00:17:57,246 --> 00:17:58,146
Oh, uh,
389
00:18:01,016 --> 00:18:02,606
was this the Boy Meets World?
390
00:18:03,196 --> 00:18:03,696
No,
391
00:18:03,996 --> 00:18:04,276
Cause I
392
00:18:04,576 --> 00:18:07,266
but you are, you are on
the right, the right page.
393
00:18:07,326 --> 00:18:07,836
Okay.
394
00:18:08,146 --> 00:18:15,046
So if you noticed, um, Brad,
Brad's played by Dan Gothier.
395
00:18:15,446 --> 00:18:15,766
Gothier?
396
00:18:15,766 --> 00:18:16,826
I think I'm saying that right.
397
00:18:17,946 --> 00:18:21,876
Um, he makes an appearance on a
couple of episodes of Friends.
398
00:18:22,846 --> 00:18:23,216
No way!
399
00:18:23,251 --> 00:18:24,891
As Chip Douglas.
400
00:18:25,411 --> 00:18:25,441
Chip!
401
00:18:25,971 --> 00:18:26,181
Chip!
402
00:18:28,481 --> 00:18:28,721
Right?
403
00:18:29,341 --> 00:18:32,381
Monica goes out on a date with
Chip and he used to date Rachel.
404
00:18:32,381 --> 00:18:32,691
Do
405
00:18:33,756 --> 00:18:34,236
I didn't
406
00:18:34,361 --> 00:18:34,901
remember him?
407
00:18:35,266 --> 00:18:36,776
I did not even put that together.
408
00:18:36,786 --> 00:18:37,686
That's insane.
409
00:18:38,101 --> 00:18:38,771
I know!
410
00:18:38,861 --> 00:18:39,961
Blows your mind.
411
00:18:40,471 --> 00:18:41,071
So
412
00:18:41,576 --> 00:18:44,736
I can pull up one even, even
crazier here for myself, and I'm
413
00:18:44,736 --> 00:18:46,036
gonna have to put this out there.
414
00:18:47,716 --> 00:18:56,656
Zelda and Mandy, who plays Polly
in, in, in the movie, they were in a
415
00:18:56,666 --> 00:19:02,431
little, little lesser known spinoff
of Cheers called The Tortellis.
416
00:19:04,641 --> 00:19:07,341
There's only very, very few
people have ever seen that.
417
00:19:07,341 --> 00:19:07,931
And me being
418
00:19:07,961 --> 00:19:09,561
Oh my gosh!
419
00:19:09,861 --> 00:19:10,621
Cheers related.
420
00:19:11,031 --> 00:19:13,541
And they're in that, it's
called the Tortellis.
421
00:19:13,541 --> 00:19:17,201
And it was a spinoff of
Carla and her family.
422
00:19:17,341 --> 00:19:19,201
And it only lasted a couple episodes.
423
00:19:19,801 --> 00:19:23,351
Believe me, that's, that's, that's
knowledge that I'm pulling out.
424
00:19:23,351 --> 00:19:23,691
So,
425
00:19:24,381 --> 00:19:27,331
I totally thought I recognized her.
426
00:19:27,971 --> 00:19:28,221
Yes!
427
00:19:29,101 --> 00:19:29,631
that's them.
428
00:19:29,741 --> 00:19:30,131
Yeah, Polly!
429
00:19:31,361 --> 00:19:33,241
The girl who plays Polly.
430
00:19:33,301 --> 00:19:33,541
Mandy.
431
00:19:33,701 --> 00:19:34,531
Mandy Engber.
432
00:19:34,681 --> 00:19:35,341
Engber is their
433
00:19:35,361 --> 00:19:35,661
Yes.
434
00:19:36,191 --> 00:19:39,221
So she is, um, uh, she
has had some quotes.
435
00:19:39,411 --> 00:19:43,931
Uh, this was like, she called this her
worst summer job was filming Teen Witch.
436
00:19:43,996 --> 00:19:44,936
Oh, I believe it.
437
00:19:44,976 --> 00:19:45,686
I believe in
438
00:19:45,731 --> 00:19:51,401
so embarrassed about the, um, top
that rap that she gives in the movie.
439
00:19:51,411 --> 00:19:53,421
She says, that's on the internet forever.
440
00:19:53,571 --> 00:19:54,731
She will never live it down.
441
00:19:55,026 --> 00:19:55,246
Right?
442
00:19:55,546 --> 00:19:58,866
I hate to tell her, but there's way worse
stuff out there on the internet than that.
443
00:19:58,916 --> 00:20:01,016
So, she doesn't have much to worry about.
444
00:20:01,016 --> 00:20:02,036
We love it, Mandy.
445
00:20:02,076 --> 00:20:02,836
That was Mandy, right?
446
00:20:02,836 --> 00:20:03,076
Yeah.
447
00:20:03,776 --> 00:20:04,466
I love it.
448
00:20:04,866 --> 00:20:08,716
Okay, so we're, we're,
the plot is super simple.
449
00:20:08,726 --> 00:20:12,356
We're not really following along with the
movie and that's okay because, honestly,
450
00:20:12,356 --> 00:20:15,286
it's just girl comes into her powers.
451
00:20:15,586 --> 00:20:18,556
This object, this necklace finds her.
452
00:20:18,616 --> 00:20:21,546
She has this witchy shop
that she keeps going back to.
453
00:20:21,546 --> 00:20:27,406
Madam Serena is there to kind of
be her guide and her mentor and
454
00:20:27,696 --> 00:20:30,409
how to, um, Use these powers.
455
00:20:30,971 --> 00:20:34,551
I love Madam Serena because she's
over there like, I'm going to use this
456
00:20:34,571 --> 00:20:36,521
young girl's powers to get me some.
457
00:20:36,811 --> 00:20:40,251
And she turns a frog into a
handsome young man for herself.
458
00:20:40,686 --> 00:20:43,196
Yeah, and what did she bring
in on that, on that plate?
459
00:20:43,196 --> 00:20:45,346
I saw, I saw a bong on there.
460
00:20:45,346 --> 00:20:45,716
I'm like, what?
461
00:20:45,746 --> 00:20:47,886
And she's like, I never
do this for people.
462
00:20:47,886 --> 00:20:49,721
And I'm like, whoa, wait a minute now.
463
00:20:50,046 --> 00:20:51,086
Like 1989.
464
00:20:51,286 --> 00:20:53,926
She's, she's, yeah.
465
00:20:54,196 --> 00:20:54,766
What was it?
466
00:20:55,406 --> 00:20:56,116
Yeah, I know.
467
00:20:56,191 --> 00:20:57,051
She's pretty hip.
468
00:20:57,101 --> 00:20:57,841
I gotta say.
469
00:20:57,841 --> 00:20:58,251
Yeah.
470
00:20:58,671 --> 00:21:02,699
I love the scene where she's, she's
talking kind of consoling Louise.
471
00:21:02,923 --> 00:21:07,511
Louise is kind of, uh, you know, going
through a rough time and she's like,
472
00:21:07,776 --> 00:21:11,946
Pats her lap, and they, she goes to
sit on her lap, but she's like, way
473
00:21:11,966 --> 00:21:15,876
bigger than her, so they have to
switch places because they laugh, like,
474
00:21:15,935 --> 00:21:18,826
she's gonna go sit on her lap instead.
475
00:21:19,741 --> 00:21:21,481
So you gave the plot right there.
476
00:21:21,481 --> 00:21:26,841
And basically if you take what you
said and mix that in with cheesy
477
00:21:26,841 --> 00:21:28,801
special effects and some catchy tunes,
478
00:21:29,356 --> 00:21:29,696
Yep.
479
00:21:29,841 --> 00:21:31,806
the movie, like that's it,
that's, that's what you have.
480
00:21:32,456 --> 00:21:32,836
Yep.
481
00:21:33,536 --> 00:21:38,526
Which is interesting because I,
again, did not think about all these
482
00:21:38,703 --> 00:21:44,406
parallels, but the craft, Our second
movie, having all these little things
483
00:21:44,406 --> 00:21:48,196
that kind of connect where it's like
there's a scene, quite a few scenes
484
00:21:48,206 --> 00:21:52,166
actually with the kind of popular
cheerleader girls in the locker room.
485
00:21:53,066 --> 00:22:00,966
You've got the witchy shop with a sort of
mentor like character that is consoling.
486
00:22:02,536 --> 00:22:02,966
Robin.
487
00:22:03,276 --> 00:22:08,826
Tunny, the, uh, who plays Sarah, um,
when she's struggling with her powers
488
00:22:08,846 --> 00:22:12,206
and what's going on in her life, she goes
back to the witchy shop and gets consoled.
489
00:22:12,226 --> 00:22:16,526
I mean, this is like, it's so interesting
because you take Teen Witch, you make it
490
00:22:16,536 --> 00:22:21,706
darker and more goth and a little bit of
horror in there and you get the craft.
491
00:22:22,006 --> 00:22:22,386
exactly.
492
00:22:22,866 --> 00:22:25,036
And you throw a snake in
there too, and that's it.
493
00:22:25,036 --> 00:22:27,416
And that's what's always kept
me from watching the craft.
494
00:22:27,416 --> 00:22:28,746
I've, I've, I've watched it.
495
00:22:29,696 --> 00:22:32,616
Are we, before we hop, are
we done with Teen Witch?
496
00:22:32,616 --> 00:22:35,016
Do you have a final thought on
that before we get to our, to the
497
00:22:35,016 --> 00:22:37,756
craft and my phobia of snakes?
498
00:22:38,416 --> 00:22:38,836
Yeah.
499
00:22:38,906 --> 00:22:39,236
Okay.
500
00:22:39,236 --> 00:22:42,756
So we'll, we'll, we'll let you
rest for a second more, um,
501
00:22:42,946 --> 00:22:43,386
Cause I'm, you
502
00:22:43,536 --> 00:22:44,566
up on Teen Witch.
503
00:22:44,906 --> 00:22:46,506
I had a couple of notes here.
504
00:22:47,126 --> 00:22:51,586
Um, I loved, uh, when she's learning
how to use her powers and she's learning
505
00:22:51,586 --> 00:22:55,656
how to use the words, the will, the
way, all the things that I teach about
506
00:22:55,656 --> 00:22:57,766
magic and how that actually plays out.
507
00:22:58,406 --> 00:23:03,716
Um, she's calling the winds, um, you know,
kind of practicing these spells, learning
508
00:23:03,716 --> 00:23:05,236
how to get a little stronger with them.
509
00:23:06,806 --> 00:23:10,906
Again, she uses glamor magic like
they do in the craft where she makes
510
00:23:10,906 --> 00:23:13,186
herself up to be really super popular.
511
00:23:13,186 --> 00:23:13,616
Cute.
512
00:23:14,106 --> 00:23:19,846
Her 80's style when she is
dressing up, it's, it's, Absolutely
513
00:23:20,526 --> 00:23:22,756
gorgeous 80s style outfits.
514
00:23:22,856 --> 00:23:27,756
I mean, I would absolutely wear some of
those outfits today, but Robin Lively
515
00:23:27,776 --> 00:23:31,136
said that those were some of her real
outfits that her mom dressed her in.
516
00:23:32,186 --> 00:23:34,036
So she just showed up on set.
517
00:23:34,306 --> 00:23:36,036
Her mom just dressed her
and showed up on set.
518
00:23:36,166 --> 00:23:36,556
I mean, that's
519
00:23:36,756 --> 00:23:37,926
Her mom was in it.
520
00:23:37,956 --> 00:23:39,456
Like her mom had it going on.
521
00:23:39,466 --> 00:23:41,146
She knew exactly what to put her in.
522
00:23:41,156 --> 00:23:44,506
And she had like in one scene, she
had like the one jeweled earring.
523
00:23:45,406 --> 00:23:46,906
It was like just on one side.
524
00:23:47,356 --> 00:23:49,426
I almost wore that today
just for fun, but I was like,
525
00:23:50,116 --> 00:23:52,196
I'm kind of disappointed that
you didn't put that on today.
526
00:23:52,306 --> 00:23:53,486
yeah, just one earring.
527
00:23:55,466 --> 00:23:57,946
Yeah, oh, just peak, peak 80s style.
528
00:23:57,986 --> 00:23:59,416
Just amazing.
529
00:23:59,776 --> 00:24:04,176
Um, but I wrote down, uh, the
whole thing, the whole time.
530
00:24:04,516 --> 00:24:08,366
Kind of the, the theme here
was she's doing all this to get
531
00:24:08,366 --> 00:24:11,616
the attention of this guy, this
football player, this popular guy.
532
00:24:12,151 --> 00:24:16,761
This is kind of, um, 16 Candles,
uh, she's driving around in his cool
533
00:24:16,761 --> 00:24:20,511
sports car that's a convertible and
she's, you know, she's trying to get
534
00:24:20,511 --> 00:24:24,491
the guy Brad, but there is something
that just doesn't feel right.
535
00:24:25,081 --> 00:24:26,371
None of it feels real.
536
00:24:26,401 --> 00:24:30,601
She knows that this isn't her real
self and that she's kind of getting
537
00:24:30,601 --> 00:24:35,836
his attention based on, uh, You
know, kind of false pretenses.
538
00:24:36,776 --> 00:24:40,686
And, uh, I wrote down, this is how
I feel when I wear false eyelashes.
539
00:24:43,336 --> 00:24:48,316
Every time I've tried to wear fake
nails or fake eyelashes, I feel
540
00:24:48,316 --> 00:24:51,586
like I'm walking around as a fraud.
541
00:24:53,041 --> 00:24:56,541
And I have to tell everybody, I
literally, my friends could tell you,
542
00:24:56,541 --> 00:24:59,421
I go to like a party or something
and I'm wearing like fake nails.
543
00:24:59,461 --> 00:25:00,701
They're like, Oh, I love your nails.
544
00:25:00,701 --> 00:25:01,571
And I go, they're not real.
545
00:25:02,921 --> 00:25:03,451
They're not real.
546
00:25:04,646 --> 00:25:06,436
You just have to do it.
547
00:25:06,446 --> 00:25:07,576
You just have to do that, huh?
548
00:25:08,981 --> 00:25:12,131
Do not like the feeling of
like, this isn't actually me.
549
00:25:12,501 --> 00:25:14,041
This isn't actually who I am.
550
00:25:14,081 --> 00:25:15,781
So I get that.
551
00:25:15,801 --> 00:25:19,281
And I think that's a great message
as a teen movie anyways, to be
552
00:25:19,281 --> 00:25:23,501
like, Hey, you can doll yourself
up all you want, express yourself.
553
00:25:23,531 --> 00:25:27,511
Just know that when you are true to
yourself, that's when it really matters.
554
00:25:27,511 --> 00:25:27,716
Right.
555
00:25:28,016 --> 00:25:28,916
Oh, I love that.
556
00:25:29,196 --> 00:25:30,236
I love that.
557
00:25:30,236 --> 00:25:31,736
That's a great message there, right?
558
00:25:32,941 --> 00:25:36,041
So at the end, I mean, she
kind of gives up the power.
559
00:25:36,061 --> 00:25:38,821
She gives up the necklace, but
she's like, I'm just going to be me.
560
00:25:39,241 --> 00:25:41,141
And I'm going to make sure
that Brad likes me for me.
561
00:25:42,224 --> 00:25:43,581
Um, she still gets the guy.
562
00:25:43,961 --> 00:25:44,881
She's a prom.
563
00:25:44,941 --> 00:25:45,821
They get to dance.
564
00:25:46,361 --> 00:25:50,971
By the way, Robin Lively, uh, said
that she reenacted the dance scene at
565
00:25:50,971 --> 00:25:54,721
the prom for Blake and Ryan's wedding.
566
00:25:55,106 --> 00:25:55,896
No way.
567
00:25:57,261 --> 00:25:58,261
Just a side note.
568
00:25:58,466 --> 00:25:58,696
And we
569
00:25:58,701 --> 00:25:58,911
a little
570
00:25:58,976 --> 00:25:59,426
invited?
571
00:26:00,301 --> 00:26:00,611
I know.
572
00:26:02,371 --> 00:26:03,271
We'll tag them.
573
00:26:03,761 --> 00:26:05,541
We'll be invited next time.
574
00:26:05,701 --> 00:26:06,391
We love Blake.
575
00:26:06,421 --> 00:26:06,801
We love Ryan.
576
00:26:06,831 --> 00:26:08,211
We went to Deadpool.
577
00:26:08,231 --> 00:26:09,831
We love, we love all that.
578
00:26:09,926 --> 00:26:10,436
Yeah.
579
00:26:10,516 --> 00:26:10,976
Yeah.
580
00:26:11,726 --> 00:26:15,146
I gotta say for my first watch,
this movie was incredible.
581
00:26:15,146 --> 00:26:16,416
I'm going to definitely watch it again.
582
00:26:16,936 --> 00:26:22,006
I love, I love like the,
the high school stuff.
583
00:26:22,006 --> 00:26:22,956
I love the high school.
584
00:26:24,136 --> 00:26:26,766
Movies that it's the nostalgia.
585
00:26:27,226 --> 00:26:28,036
It's all of that.
586
00:26:28,056 --> 00:26:31,276
It brings back some of your own
memories, but at the same time you're
587
00:26:31,276 --> 00:26:32,686
like, my school didn't look like that.
588
00:26:32,696 --> 00:26:33,666
It didn't look perfect.
589
00:26:34,116 --> 00:26:39,876
And then there's all the stuff that comes
along with the teenager, being a teenager.
590
00:26:40,266 --> 00:26:44,746
And I also think it's pretty funny
that None of them kids are kids.
591
00:26:45,246 --> 00:26:47,506
They're all 25 years old and more.
592
00:26:48,136 --> 00:26:48,546
Oh yeah.
593
00:26:48,556 --> 00:26:50,266
and, but they're playing it.
594
00:26:50,426 --> 00:26:52,434
And I love, but I did, I
really thought it was fun.
595
00:26:52,796 --> 00:26:56,776
It was honestly just like watching some
kids go to school and live life for the
596
00:26:56,776 --> 00:26:58,996
first, what, 30 minutes of the movie.
597
00:26:59,406 --> 00:27:02,376
Um, there's, you know, and
I was just enjoying it.
598
00:27:02,376 --> 00:27:04,506
I was like, ah, yeah,
this is, this is my vibe.
599
00:27:05,286 --> 00:27:07,136
And this is the one that's not scary.
600
00:27:07,516 --> 00:27:08,786
You can put this on with the kids on.
601
00:27:08,786 --> 00:27:11,691
Like, I thought this was, Solid choice.
602
00:27:12,496 --> 00:27:13,046
Oh yeah.
603
00:27:13,296 --> 00:27:14,226
Worth a watch.
604
00:27:14,266 --> 00:27:17,276
Worth, like, a family movie
night or something like that.
605
00:27:17,346 --> 00:27:23,726
And, uh, and then, as you talk about
high school experiences, that's where,
606
00:27:23,986 --> 00:27:32,106
um, in switching to the craft, this
is where I really, uh, Resonated.
607
00:27:32,296 --> 00:27:35,356
I was like, this is taking
me back to high school.
608
00:27:35,396 --> 00:27:36,134
So hardcore.
609
00:27:37,396 --> 00:27:41,386
And it's more realistic to me as my
high school experience than anything
610
00:27:41,386 --> 00:27:46,536
that was like Teen Witch or Saved by
the Bell or, uh, you know, this kind
611
00:27:46,536 --> 00:27:54,936
of like idealistic version of like, you
know, the skater kids and the whatever.
612
00:27:54,956 --> 00:27:59,706
It was like, yeah, my high school
experience was a lot more like the craft.
613
00:28:00,586 --> 00:28:02,656
Unfortunately, or
fortunately, I'm not sure.
614
00:28:03,371 --> 00:28:06,101
that's why you're here is
because you're the expert.
615
00:28:06,131 --> 00:28:08,981
You're the, you're my inside
expert on what's going on here.
616
00:28:09,311 --> 00:28:15,761
But I, I gotta say that they did a
great job in the craft of capturing
617
00:28:15,761 --> 00:28:22,271
that, that look, because I can't,
we're we're children from the nineties.
618
00:28:22,271 --> 00:28:23,231
We went to school in the nineties.
619
00:28:23,231 --> 00:28:25,211
I mean, we're, I'm, I'm
a child of the eighties.
620
00:28:26,491 --> 00:28:27,931
We're not gonna say
anything else about Ms.
621
00:28:27,931 --> 00:28:28,801
Courtney Pearl here.
622
00:28:30,051 --> 00:28:31,641
I'm hundreds of years old.
623
00:28:31,676 --> 00:28:32,516
What are you, you seven?
624
00:28:32,756 --> 00:28:33,056
What?
625
00:28:33,086 --> 00:28:33,956
How, how old are you?
626
00:28:34,366 --> 00:28:34,846
Um,
627
00:28:36,926 --> 00:28:40,186
so where was I going with that?
628
00:28:42,611 --> 00:28:44,551
Yeah, so the 90s.
629
00:28:44,851 --> 00:28:48,276
the nineties, like this,
this, the look they had.
630
00:28:49,616 --> 00:28:53,966
We all knew a group of these girls,
I, even now in my neighborhood that
631
00:28:53,966 --> 00:28:58,036
we're, we're in, I, I'll see a group of
girls walking down the, the sidewalk.
632
00:28:58,036 --> 00:28:58,516
Every once in a while.
633
00:28:58,516 --> 00:29:00,526
I'm like, oh, there goes the craft.
634
00:29:00,736 --> 00:29:04,906
You know, I , I automatically think
because there's, there's just this look.
635
00:29:05,961 --> 00:29:07,371
Is that what that's this is
636
00:29:07,501 --> 00:29:12,181
This movie was like the
birth of goth, right?
637
00:29:12,461 --> 00:29:17,931
Like that kind of look wasn't as
mainstream until this movie came out.
638
00:29:17,991 --> 00:29:24,701
And this became the black lipstick,
the, um, oh gosh, it's, they were in
639
00:29:24,731 --> 00:29:29,861
a Catholic school, so Catholic school
uniforms, but they each had their own
640
00:29:29,861 --> 00:29:33,901
way of wearing it that was just like
to their personality a little bit.
641
00:29:34,051 --> 00:29:38,611
it's almost like a fresh prince The fresh
prince of bel air when he had when he went
642
00:29:38,611 --> 00:29:43,551
to the prep school, but he had his jacket
on It was did you notice that their that
643
00:29:43,551 --> 00:29:49,731
their getup what they were wearing in the
movie went from kind of dull And then as
644
00:29:49,731 --> 00:29:55,521
they got powerful powerful in the movie
Started they started getting more makeup.
645
00:29:55,541 --> 00:29:59,421
They started getting did you notice
that because I picked up on yeah Yeah,
646
00:29:59,421 --> 00:30:03,666
and this was not this was probably
I gotta say, and I think I already
647
00:30:03,666 --> 00:30:06,766
mentioned it, but this is probably only
the second time I've ever seen this
648
00:30:06,766 --> 00:30:09,373
movie because I can't deal with snakes.
649
00:30:09,436 --> 00:30:12,886
I got a huge phobia it.
650
00:30:13,036 --> 00:30:13,726
I freeze up.
651
00:30:13,756 --> 00:30:19,516
I'm literally, I'm not afraid of, I
mean, sure I'm afraid of them, but it's
652
00:30:19,516 --> 00:30:22,556
not a, I can't tell myself to not be.
653
00:30:22,786 --> 00:30:25,286
If I see a picture of
one, I just freeze up.
654
00:30:25,306 --> 00:30:26,866
Just something in my body reacts.
655
00:30:27,836 --> 00:30:32,326
It's finally, I was able to power
through and watch the craft.
656
00:30:32,626 --> 00:30:33,136
shut your eyes.
657
00:30:33,156 --> 00:30:36,996
It's so funny that after like we talked
about Suspiria last week and we're talking
658
00:30:37,006 --> 00:30:42,986
about like the blood and gore of that
movie was so much and then the snakes
659
00:30:42,986 --> 00:30:45,426
in this movie are what does you in but
660
00:30:45,506 --> 00:30:45,736
it.
661
00:30:45,776 --> 00:30:46,076
That's the
662
00:30:46,166 --> 00:30:46,846
totally true.
663
00:30:46,846 --> 00:30:47,101
There's so much.
664
00:30:47,431 --> 00:30:50,461
You just, if you have a phobia,
you have a visceral reaction to it.
665
00:30:50,911 --> 00:30:54,781
And there is a scene where, when they're
getting ready to call, um, invoke the
666
00:30:54,781 --> 00:30:58,991
spirit, um, in that scene, and she's got
the snake in her hands, and she's like,
667
00:30:59,011 --> 00:31:00,831
they're very misunderstood creatures.
668
00:31:00,841 --> 00:31:02,091
They deserve respect.
669
00:31:02,191 --> 00:31:08,681
Um, I wrote down how, Uh, the
serpent is a very feminine symbol.
670
00:31:08,701 --> 00:31:15,441
It represents the goddess most often,
and even in, um, Christian or in the,
671
00:31:16,141 --> 00:31:21,791
uh, Hebrew Bible, the story of, um,
the snake tempting Adam, it was, uh,
672
00:31:23,226 --> 00:31:27,876
Believed to be a code or a symbol
of the goddess or of maybe perhaps
673
00:31:27,896 --> 00:31:33,946
Lilith, who was tempting Adam, not an
Eve, not just an actual literal snake.
674
00:31:34,309 --> 00:31:38,086
So, the snake or serpent
is a very feminine energy.
675
00:31:38,456 --> 00:31:42,726
So you're saying, if I get this right,
and maybe this explains a lot from my
676
00:31:42,726 --> 00:31:47,516
own high school, is that my phobia of
snakes means I'm just terrified of women.
677
00:31:48,056 --> 00:31:48,426
Is that what it is?
678
00:31:49,006 --> 00:31:49,366
Okay.
679
00:31:49,966 --> 00:31:50,976
Something to explore.
680
00:31:51,276 --> 00:31:51,906
That's why I was
681
00:31:51,916 --> 00:31:52,636
to think about.
682
00:31:53,116 --> 00:31:56,216
yeah, that's why I was so awkward
when I was, you know, approaching
683
00:31:56,406 --> 00:31:59,296
females in, in, in my early days.
684
00:31:59,406 --> 00:32:03,116
I mean, I asked my wife, I'm
still awkward approaching her now.
685
00:32:03,646 --> 00:32:03,846
So.
686
00:32:04,146 --> 00:32:08,316
Yeah, well, this, this movie, if this
movie isn't triggering to your high
687
00:32:08,316 --> 00:32:10,076
school days, it definitely was for me.
688
00:32:10,406 --> 00:32:15,496
Um, I took note of some moments that
were obviously references to very, like,
689
00:32:15,626 --> 00:32:18,776
sexist, misogynist, and racist comments.
690
00:32:19,426 --> 00:32:24,056
And I thought to myself, the 90s was
really the peak of that testosterone
691
00:32:24,076 --> 00:32:29,211
energy in high school, where it
was like, Okay to treat women, you
692
00:32:29,211 --> 00:32:32,941
know, use words like slut and whore
towards women to degrade them.
693
00:32:33,341 --> 00:32:36,461
And, uh, some of the comments
made to the girls when they're
694
00:32:36,461 --> 00:32:37,981
being bullied by other girls.
695
00:32:38,191 --> 00:32:39,921
It's just awful.
696
00:32:40,221 --> 00:32:40,686
it is.
697
00:32:40,726 --> 00:32:45,876
And I really do think you're,
you're onto something there because
698
00:32:47,206 --> 00:32:48,456
there were a lot of stuff said.
699
00:32:48,456 --> 00:32:49,256
There was, it was awful.
700
00:32:49,416 --> 00:32:55,306
The racism in the movie, honestly,
after researching it, the racism had
701
00:32:55,306 --> 00:33:00,306
to be written into the movie when
Rachel True got cast as Rochelle.
702
00:33:00,826 --> 00:33:03,506
Yes, and she was the first
one cast of the four girls.
703
00:33:04,066 --> 00:33:08,606
Yeah, so she wasn't too excited, too
thrilled about that, I don't believe,
704
00:33:08,606 --> 00:33:12,876
until later on and she understood,
but I'm kind of with her on that, I
705
00:33:12,876 --> 00:33:19,406
don't, I'm with her but at the same
time I do see it because it was a big,
706
00:33:21,696 --> 00:33:24,796
it's hard to say it's a big
undertone, but it was in the movie,
707
00:33:24,796 --> 00:33:26,581
it was there, it was relevant,
708
00:33:26,881 --> 00:33:27,151
there.
709
00:33:27,151 --> 00:33:27,541
Yeah.
710
00:33:27,841 --> 00:33:28,446
and it was there.
711
00:33:28,446 --> 00:33:28,466
Yeah.
712
00:33:28,466 --> 00:33:28,541
Yeah.
713
00:33:28,881 --> 00:33:30,621
It was there and it was uncomfortable.
714
00:33:31,591 --> 00:33:32,111
How about that?
715
00:33:32,121 --> 00:33:33,201
It was uncomfortable.
716
00:33:33,701 --> 00:33:37,671
That racism to me is more
uncomfortable than evil witches.
717
00:33:39,021 --> 00:33:40,511
Yeah, exactly.
718
00:33:40,521 --> 00:33:42,311
And I think that was kind of the point.
719
00:33:42,411 --> 00:33:48,781
Um, it's interesting because the
producer, uh, Doug Wick said that they
720
00:33:48,951 --> 00:33:53,201
forced them to have an R rating for this
movie, even though there was nothing in
721
00:33:53,201 --> 00:33:55,591
it other than teens practicing magic.
722
00:33:55,591 --> 00:34:00,451
They said teens practicing black magic was
the only reason they gave it an R rating.
723
00:34:00,451 --> 00:34:02,751
He said this is a modern
day witch burning.
724
00:34:02,751 --> 00:34:03,771
Ha ha ha.
725
00:34:04,551 --> 00:34:09,391
you, anything with the MPAA, you might as
well throw out the fucking window outside.
726
00:34:09,431 --> 00:34:11,401
I only, and I know I said F right there.
727
00:34:11,681 --> 00:34:15,971
I said, fucking, because the
MPAA would just censored it.
728
00:34:15,971 --> 00:34:22,271
And I'm don't get me started
on FCC or MPAA for any kind of
729
00:34:22,271 --> 00:34:27,251
ratings, because yeah, that's a
whole crooked thing in its own, but
730
00:34:27,911 --> 00:34:32,771
Well, in reality, this movie did
represent and show witchcraft in
731
00:34:32,771 --> 00:34:35,211
a probably more accurate light.
732
00:34:35,371 --> 00:34:40,501
Um, they had, um, consultants on set
that were Wiccan to make sure that they
733
00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:43,511
were respectful of the Wiccan religion.
734
00:34:43,541 --> 00:34:46,971
And I do want to point out,
so in the beginning you see
735
00:34:46,971 --> 00:34:48,481
the pentacle symbol, right?
736
00:34:48,601 --> 00:34:51,891
And the pentacle is the star
without the circle around it,
737
00:34:52,571 --> 00:34:53,881
um, the five pointed star.
738
00:34:54,471 --> 00:34:57,681
The five pointed star with a
circle around it is a pentagram.
739
00:34:58,446 --> 00:35:03,816
But this is a representation, or it
comes in Christian as the five points
740
00:35:04,166 --> 00:35:08,486
where Jesus is nailed to the cross,
and it is a protection symbol in most,
741
00:35:09,546 --> 00:35:13,346
um, witchcraft or Wiccan come from.
742
00:35:14,236 --> 00:35:19,046
If you see it upside down with
the ram's head, that is typically
743
00:35:19,046 --> 00:35:20,766
used in Satanism or by Satanists.
744
00:35:21,626 --> 00:35:24,456
So when she asks them in the
beginning of the movie, when Sarah
745
00:35:24,466 --> 00:35:29,155
starts, she's, uh, brought into this
coven because they need a fourth.
746
00:35:29,236 --> 00:35:31,636
They've been trying to call the
four corners and they've been
747
00:35:31,646 --> 00:35:36,456
trying to invoke with, uh, And they
need a fourth person to do that.
748
00:35:36,956 --> 00:35:39,126
And they find out Sarah
is already powerful.
749
00:35:40,266 --> 00:35:42,226
And Sarah is not into all this.
750
00:35:42,276 --> 00:35:45,776
Like she has never been dabbled in
witchcraft or anything like that.
751
00:35:45,796 --> 00:35:48,286
So she's like, what is Manon?
752
00:35:48,326 --> 00:35:50,396
And what is, is it the devil?
753
00:35:50,436 --> 00:35:51,626
Or is that like God?
754
00:35:52,496 --> 00:35:54,776
She's, you know, kind of
trying to understand like most
755
00:35:54,776 --> 00:35:57,973
people who don't understand
witchcraft or, or what Wicca is.
756
00:35:58,886 --> 00:36:01,526
And, um, they're like,
no, it's, it's everything.
757
00:36:01,526 --> 00:36:04,976
It's, it's like if God and the
devil were playing football, Manon
758
00:36:04,986 --> 00:36:08,066
would be the field they play on
and the sun that shines on them.
759
00:36:08,181 --> 00:36:08,671
yeah.
760
00:36:09,536 --> 00:36:11,066
Wow, what a beautiful image.
761
00:36:11,086 --> 00:36:12,826
What a great way to describe it.
762
00:36:12,896 --> 00:36:15,391
Although they still use
the patriarchal hymn
763
00:36:15,691 --> 00:36:16,161
Yeah.
764
00:36:16,836 --> 00:36:20,426
in describing the deity of
Manon, but for the most part
765
00:36:20,741 --> 00:36:25,841
This was 1996, so they hadn't,
they hadn't crossed quite over
766
00:36:25,961 --> 00:36:27,341
completely to letting women
767
00:36:28,026 --> 00:36:28,646
to the goddess.
768
00:36:28,721 --> 00:36:30,301
be, be, be in stuff.
769
00:36:30,301 --> 00:36:30,471
Yeah.
770
00:36:30,751 --> 00:36:33,651
Um, no, I, that's, I love that.
771
00:36:33,661 --> 00:36:38,271
That's, that's, um, great, great insight.
772
00:36:38,641 --> 00:36:44,041
And much of that stuff, how
much of that was, was realistic?
773
00:36:44,041 --> 00:36:45,471
Like, I guess is a
774
00:36:45,636 --> 00:36:46,936
very accurate.
775
00:36:46,956 --> 00:36:50,326
I mean, even to today's standards,
like, so you go into one of these
776
00:36:50,326 --> 00:36:54,136
like witchcraft or witchy, uh, or
crystal shops or healing shops.
777
00:36:54,166 --> 00:36:57,496
I mean, they all kind of
overlap in a lot of ways.
778
00:36:57,556 --> 00:37:00,951
And so, You'll see a lot of
the same stuff that you saw in
779
00:37:00,951 --> 00:37:02,521
the witch shop when they go in.
780
00:37:02,891 --> 00:37:07,131
Um, Bonnie picks up, played by
Nev Campbell, by the way, picks
781
00:37:07,131 --> 00:37:11,391
up a journal that she wants, and
it has a triangle symbol on it.
782
00:37:11,601 --> 00:37:15,446
And, um, you know, it's just
a It could be a lot of things.
783
00:37:15,446 --> 00:37:19,856
I mean, it's just a triangle, but
represents perfectness and unity.
784
00:37:20,196 --> 00:37:26,816
It represents the element of fire
and it is the, um, masculine symbol.
785
00:37:27,546 --> 00:37:32,516
So, you know, there's a lot of like
little things in the background, things
786
00:37:32,526 --> 00:37:36,476
that you would see and the books that
she hands them about invoking the
787
00:37:36,476 --> 00:37:37,726
spirit or about using witchcraft.
788
00:37:37,876 --> 00:37:41,336
It's like, you can absolutely go
to witchy shops now and pick up a
789
00:37:41,336 --> 00:37:43,016
lot of really great information.
790
00:37:43,556 --> 00:37:45,856
So, Thierry?
791
00:37:45,876 --> 00:37:46,046
that.
792
00:37:46,156 --> 00:37:52,566
Now talking about the witchy shop,
that's Panpipes Magical Witch Shop.
793
00:37:53,076 --> 00:37:53,546
Yes.
794
00:37:54,016 --> 00:37:54,876
I have been there.
795
00:37:54,876 --> 00:37:56,566
It's on Santa Monica Boulevard
796
00:37:57,076 --> 00:37:58,046
Wow.
797
00:37:58,046 --> 00:37:58,476
Yeah.
798
00:37:58,776 --> 00:37:59,536
lived there for a while.
799
00:37:59,536 --> 00:38:03,966
Yeah, I have been, I've been, now I used
to dabble into the witch shops, not into
800
00:38:03,966 --> 00:38:07,786
anything other than going in and looking,
but yeah, I have been to Panpipes.
801
00:38:07,786 --> 00:38:09,946
I believe it is.
802
00:38:10,546 --> 00:38:14,886
And somebody, somebody from the
movie actually bought that store.
803
00:38:15,416 --> 00:38:15,796
Um,
804
00:38:16,096 --> 00:38:16,826
Oh, yeah.
805
00:38:16,826 --> 00:38:20,846
For, um, Farooza Balk, who plays Nancy,
806
00:38:21,806 --> 00:38:21,996
that's
807
00:38:22,036 --> 00:38:26,346
was not a pagan or wasn't even really
aware of pagan things until she did
808
00:38:26,346 --> 00:38:30,571
this movie and she realized this makes
a lot of sense and she became a pagan
809
00:38:30,626 --> 00:38:35,546
after filming this movie and she bought
that shop to save it from going under.
810
00:38:36,841 --> 00:38:37,401
it's still there.
811
00:38:37,401 --> 00:38:38,441
I believe it's still there.
812
00:38:38,561 --> 00:38:39,131
Um,
813
00:38:39,696 --> 00:38:40,986
she's incredible, by the way.
814
00:38:41,106 --> 00:38:41,476
I love
815
00:38:41,571 --> 00:38:42,851
like, like, I love that.
816
00:38:42,861 --> 00:38:43,651
I love that though.
817
00:38:43,681 --> 00:38:48,461
And then Let's get to a little bit of
the, the, the, the plot of the movie.
818
00:38:48,461 --> 00:38:48,861
I mean,
819
00:38:51,221 --> 00:38:53,661
it's almost the same as
we had in, in Teen Witch.
820
00:38:53,661 --> 00:38:57,121
It's teenage witchcraft
and kids in high school
821
00:38:57,226 --> 00:38:57,926
Yeah.
822
00:38:58,001 --> 00:38:58,541
fill in the
823
00:38:58,606 --> 00:39:01,636
How did you like the
soundtrack to this movie?
824
00:39:02,041 --> 00:39:04,541
This one was, this one was
a banger from the beginning.
825
00:39:05,816 --> 00:39:06,496
So good.
826
00:39:06,796 --> 00:39:10,371
track out of the gate was,
uh, what was the, what was it?
827
00:39:10,441 --> 00:39:11,381
It was, there's a
828
00:39:12,026 --> 00:39:13,986
I wrote down everything that I could.
829
00:39:14,061 --> 00:39:15,461
Portis head track in there.
830
00:39:15,461 --> 00:39:16,731
That was that hit hard.
831
00:39:17,306 --> 00:39:18,076
Jewel,
832
00:39:18,761 --> 00:39:19,521
yeah, like
833
00:39:19,821 --> 00:39:25,496
Juliana Hatfield, Letters
to Cleo, Space Hogs.
834
00:39:25,536 --> 00:39:27,396
I was just writing them
down as they were coming up.
835
00:39:27,396 --> 00:39:29,496
I'm like, oh, oh, that's a good one.
836
00:39:29,526 --> 00:39:30,426
Oh, that's another good one.
837
00:39:30,426 --> 00:39:34,966
So, I mean, if nothing else, you haven't
watched a movie yet, or this isn't
838
00:39:34,966 --> 00:39:37,036
your thing, go get the soundtrack.
839
00:39:37,046 --> 00:39:39,651
I think that's like Fantastic.
840
00:39:40,191 --> 00:39:42,851
was even, um, John Lennon
and Paul McCartney.
841
00:39:42,871 --> 00:39:45,941
Like, they're even on Tomorrow,
they did Tomorrow Never Knows.
842
00:39:46,596 --> 00:39:52,331
Um, the entire thing was You could
actually just Yeah, you should just
843
00:39:52,331 --> 00:39:53,221
get the soundtrack and let's do it.
844
00:39:53,611 --> 00:39:55,501
This was the soundtrack of the 90s.
845
00:39:56,541 --> 00:40:01,841
Um, speaking of that, the cast, um,
you'll notice a lot of people were in
846
00:40:02,041 --> 00:40:09,441
Scream, um, Robin Tunney that came from
Empire Records, um, uh, some of the same
847
00:40:09,441 --> 00:40:13,401
people that were in Clueless, you get
kind of like all those, in fact, Alicia
848
00:40:13,401 --> 00:40:19,376
Silverstone was, uh, Considered for
the part of Sarah before, but she was
849
00:40:19,581 --> 00:40:22,746
done with Clueless and she had another
project or something that she was doing.
850
00:40:23,366 --> 00:40:24,396
So, can you imagine?
851
00:40:24,696 --> 00:40:26,051
Yeah, what would that be like?
852
00:40:26,101 --> 00:40:26,641
I mean, she would've
853
00:40:26,736 --> 00:40:32,156
from Clueless as Cher and then
playing Sarah the Witch on The Craft.
854
00:40:33,401 --> 00:40:37,001
let's talk more about Manning.
855
00:40:38,006 --> 00:40:38,626
Mm hmm.
856
00:40:38,701 --> 00:40:39,431
Who is Manning?
857
00:40:40,876 --> 00:40:46,046
Um, well, a lot of this
comes from the Wiccan faith.
858
00:40:46,156 --> 00:40:54,266
So, like, If paganism was a indoctrinated
religion, Wicca would probably be it.
859
00:40:54,296 --> 00:40:56,686
And so a lot of people think
witch, they think Wicca.
860
00:40:56,736 --> 00:41:00,856
And a lot of what these girls are
practicing and what, um, the rule of
861
00:41:00,866 --> 00:41:05,206
three they talk about many times is
like, if you are pointing your finger
862
00:41:05,896 --> 00:41:10,476
at someone else casting spells, you
have three fingers pointed back at you.
863
00:41:10,706 --> 00:41:13,996
You'll get whatever you send out
into the universe three times.
864
00:41:14,631 --> 00:41:19,281
And whether that's an accurate
depiction of how energy works, um, I
865
00:41:19,281 --> 00:41:20,971
go into that a little bit on my show.
866
00:41:21,351 --> 00:41:27,171
But, uh, that's kind of like
a rule, and, um, so Wiccan has
867
00:41:27,171 --> 00:41:28,791
its definite, like, doctrine.
868
00:41:28,801 --> 00:41:35,751
It has its books that rules to
follow, um, you know, covens that
869
00:41:35,781 --> 00:41:37,991
you join, and there are leaderships.
870
00:41:38,651 --> 00:41:42,696
So Manon, I think, is Um,
coming from that tradition or
871
00:41:42,696 --> 00:41:44,046
coming from that belief system.
872
00:41:44,066 --> 00:41:47,156
So it's like they have their
deity that they worship.
873
00:41:47,206 --> 00:41:51,506
And when they say invoking
the spirit, um, in the movie,
874
00:41:51,526 --> 00:41:53,476
they're talking about his spirit.
875
00:41:53,486 --> 00:41:56,166
They're like invoking that
deity into their body,
876
00:41:56,361 --> 00:42:01,681
But Monon is not a real spirit
in the, in the Wiccan world.
877
00:42:02,241 --> 00:42:03,811
That's just made up for the movie, right?
878
00:42:04,486 --> 00:42:05,366
I believe so.
879
00:42:05,396 --> 00:42:06,826
But it's coming from a lot of them.
880
00:42:06,846 --> 00:42:10,956
They wanted to be very respectful
of the Wiccan tradition.
881
00:42:10,986 --> 00:42:12,936
So they didn't want anything to offend.
882
00:42:13,516 --> 00:42:15,176
The Wiccan people.
883
00:42:15,506 --> 00:42:26,406
Which, now which, which, W I C H, W H I C
H, goes to when they do the spells in the,
884
00:42:26,446 --> 00:42:28,296
in the movie, they're doing actual Wiccan,
885
00:42:29,446 --> 00:42:30,026
Mhm.
886
00:42:30,346 --> 00:42:31,326
casting, I guess.
887
00:42:32,106 --> 00:42:32,736
Yeah.
888
00:42:32,976 --> 00:42:37,586
I wrote down a lot of the chanting
that they do, and when they say, In
889
00:42:37,586 --> 00:42:42,516
perfect love, in perfect trust, And
as they're joining the circle to
890
00:42:42,556 --> 00:42:49,906
cast spells, Those are all usable
chants and spells that are used.
891
00:42:50,136 --> 00:42:51,536
As above, so below.
892
00:42:52,306 --> 00:42:58,446
that goes to real life, because an
official website, I don't know if
893
00:42:58,466 --> 00:43:01,176
you've looked or seen any of this,
but there's an official website.
894
00:43:01,736 --> 00:43:02,486
For the movie.
895
00:43:02,486 --> 00:43:07,166
And they talked about the crew
having strange and mysterious
896
00:43:07,206 --> 00:43:10,726
occurrences happen on set while
they were filming these scenes,
897
00:43:11,236 --> 00:43:11,896
Oh yeah.
898
00:43:13,796 --> 00:43:18,186
what happened was there was at one time,
a flock of bats was hovering over the set.
899
00:43:18,656 --> 00:43:22,376
There was times when the candles
would go out automatically,
900
00:43:23,266 --> 00:43:25,176
water started raising up
901
00:43:25,766 --> 00:43:26,066
Yeah!
902
00:43:26,486 --> 00:43:26,566
point.
903
00:43:26,756 --> 00:43:30,816
Like there's only when they
would do, uh, what was the line?
904
00:43:30,826 --> 00:43:35,896
Nancy says, man, and fill me right at that
exact moment is when the water started.
905
00:43:36,636 --> 00:43:39,166
There's no way that they were,
they weren't controlling the water.
906
00:43:39,216 --> 00:43:39,436
They
907
00:43:39,636 --> 00:43:39,736
Yes!
908
00:43:39,736 --> 00:43:40,014
Yes!
909
00:43:40,014 --> 00:43:40,291
Yes!
910
00:43:40,846 --> 00:43:41,476
yeah, that's
911
00:43:41,611 --> 00:43:45,091
They had a park ranger tell them
exactly where to set up their whole
912
00:43:45,091 --> 00:43:49,106
thing for the scene so that the water
wouldn't be in their way, and During
913
00:43:49,106 --> 00:43:52,756
that invoking the spirit scene, they
still had the water come up, the waves
914
00:43:52,756 --> 00:43:57,276
came up, and um, washed out the set.
915
00:43:57,276 --> 00:43:58,046
I
916
00:43:58,156 --> 00:44:01,326
was Andrew Fleming, the director, even
said that every time the girls started the
917
00:44:01,326 --> 00:44:05,566
ceremony and only when they would start
the ceremony, the waves would start coming
918
00:44:05,566 --> 00:44:08,726
up tremendously fast, pounding heavily.
919
00:44:08,726 --> 00:44:13,996
Then right when Nancy says her line,
Manon, feel me right at that exact moment.
920
00:44:14,006 --> 00:44:15,056
We lost power.
921
00:44:15,946 --> 00:44:17,096
It was very strange.
922
00:44:17,146 --> 00:44:19,276
That's, that's an exact
quote from Andrew Fleming.
923
00:44:20,426 --> 00:44:20,936
So that's.
924
00:44:21,026 --> 00:44:21,716
mean,
925
00:44:21,906 --> 00:44:22,886
There is something weird going on.
926
00:44:22,926 --> 00:44:27,766
Like, there's, you don't mess around
in there and do real witchcraft and
927
00:44:27,766 --> 00:44:31,476
not expect, they don't know, the
witches out there don't know, right?
928
00:44:31,496 --> 00:44:32,826
On the other dimension or whatever.
929
00:44:32,836 --> 00:44:33,676
How is that happening?
930
00:44:33,976 --> 00:44:34,466
How does that work?
931
00:44:35,316 --> 00:44:39,596
Do we have to communicate and say, hey,
we're going to do some chanting, we don't
932
00:44:39,606 --> 00:44:43,796
mean it, just for shits and giggles.
933
00:44:43,806 --> 00:44:46,836
Like, how do we convey that
to the other world there?
934
00:44:47,916 --> 00:44:49,806
I know that there are certain, um,
935
00:44:51,916 --> 00:44:57,676
recommended techniques, um, for cleansing
and warding, and anytime someone is
936
00:44:57,676 --> 00:45:02,398
going to cast a circle or, or, uh,
perform any kind of anything, even when
937
00:45:02,398 --> 00:45:08,026
I'm doing healing work, which is not
necessarily Witchcraft by any typical
938
00:45:08,026 --> 00:45:12,606
definition, but I personally don't
really see a whole lot of division.
939
00:45:13,086 --> 00:45:18,146
Anyway, um, you would want to kind
of set things up with your intention
940
00:45:18,176 --> 00:45:20,206
and you do warding and protecting.
941
00:45:20,426 --> 00:45:23,966
Um, when I'm reading tarot, I don't just
pull out my cards and just start doing it.
942
00:45:24,306 --> 00:45:27,846
I usually start with some kind of a
warding and protecting, a meditation,
943
00:45:27,896 --> 00:45:31,976
a drumming, um, a drawing of the
circle or the calling of the corners.
944
00:45:31,996 --> 00:45:33,526
There's a lot of different ways to do it.
945
00:45:34,656 --> 00:45:37,286
Um, setting your intention for
what you're about to do and
946
00:45:37,656 --> 00:45:39,266
saying, this is what I'm doing.
947
00:45:39,276 --> 00:45:43,146
This is the route, you know, I don't
want any harm to come to me or to anyone.
948
00:45:43,626 --> 00:45:46,026
Um, and that kind of thing, that
would have been a good idea.
949
00:45:46,026 --> 00:45:49,516
I don't know if they had anybody
doing that on set, but it sounds like,
950
00:45:49,716 --> 00:45:55,336
uh, definitely the power they were
influencing on what they were doing.
951
00:45:56,356 --> 00:45:57,656
It must've had an impact.
952
00:45:57,676 --> 00:46:02,316
I mean, as I said, um, the girl who
plays Nancy, She believed in it.
953
00:46:02,356 --> 00:46:06,426
Once she started doing this work
with the, with the crew on this
954
00:46:06,476 --> 00:46:09,886
movie, she was like, I, this is,
there's something real to this.
955
00:46:09,956 --> 00:46:12,496
There's something that I
really am feeling here.
956
00:46:13,146 --> 00:46:18,026
So with the heart, with the will and the
way and the words all happening all at
957
00:46:18,026 --> 00:46:22,446
once, I guess they couldn't escape those
strange things from happening, right?
958
00:46:22,501 --> 00:46:23,941
No,
959
00:46:24,996 --> 00:46:28,336
on the, back to the topic of the
Wiccan, because we're talking about it.
960
00:46:29,826 --> 00:46:31,076
Are all witches wicked?
961
00:46:33,676 --> 00:46:34,056
Okay.
962
00:46:34,476 --> 00:46:34,896
Okay.
963
00:46:35,401 --> 00:46:35,881
yes.
964
00:46:35,901 --> 00:46:37,961
I'm glad you asked that because I have
a lot of people that tell me they're
965
00:46:37,961 --> 00:46:39,489
like, how can you call yourself a witch?
966
00:46:39,661 --> 00:46:42,011
Like, so you're Wiccan and
I'm like, no, I'm not Wiccan.
967
00:46:42,031 --> 00:46:43,441
I'm a solitary practitioner.
968
00:46:43,941 --> 00:46:45,231
I'm not part of a coven.
969
00:46:45,261 --> 00:46:48,631
I practice witchcraft in
my own way, in my own time.
970
00:46:48,631 --> 00:46:53,751
And, um, and there are, You know,
plenty of people that do that and
971
00:46:53,761 --> 00:46:57,921
even being pagan doesn't necessarily
mean that you're witch or I think
972
00:46:57,921 --> 00:46:59,661
that there again is a lot of overlap.
973
00:46:59,671 --> 00:47:00,951
I think there's a lot of like,
974
00:47:01,666 --> 00:47:02,126
Yeah.
975
00:47:02,561 --> 00:47:05,371
you know, when you're doing energy
work and that kind of thing.
976
00:47:05,781 --> 00:47:08,361
Uh, and energy healing.
977
00:47:09,616 --> 00:47:13,306
Some people like to stay in their lane and
be like, Nope, I'm none of those things.
978
00:47:13,331 --> 00:47:16,966
I'm just an energy healer or
whatever, you know, their personal
979
00:47:16,966 --> 00:47:18,316
beliefs or spirituality is.
980
00:47:18,416 --> 00:47:22,846
But for me, um, yeah, I follow
a lot of people that are
981
00:47:22,946 --> 00:47:24,206
just solitary practitioners.
982
00:47:24,236 --> 00:47:26,316
They just practice witchcraft.
983
00:47:26,536 --> 00:47:26,936
So,
984
00:47:29,346 --> 00:47:35,516
Now tell me which branch of
witchcraft then does light as a
985
00:47:35,516 --> 00:47:37,096
feather stiff as a board come in?
986
00:47:37,126 --> 00:47:39,916
Because that scene had me shook.
987
00:47:40,866 --> 00:47:41,486
Where does that
988
00:47:41,786 --> 00:47:47,126
so, um, I would call that the coven
of all teenage girls at a sleepover.
989
00:47:48,076 --> 00:47:48,646
Right?
990
00:47:48,906 --> 00:47:51,476
And boys, because I definitely
tried light as a feather stiff as a
991
00:47:51,656 --> 00:47:52,096
They do?
992
00:47:52,496 --> 00:47:53,836
I never tried it.
993
00:47:53,846 --> 00:47:54,586
Did it work?
994
00:47:54,906 --> 00:47:55,846
that never happened.
995
00:47:55,966 --> 00:47:56,156
What
996
00:47:56,231 --> 00:48:00,471
No, I've heard so many stories of
friends who are like, Oh my gosh,
997
00:48:00,471 --> 00:48:01,991
I totally tried it and it worked.
998
00:48:02,611 --> 00:48:07,391
And I'm skeptical, but also
I'm kind of like, maybe it did.
999
00:48:07,641 --> 00:48:08,561
Maybe something happened.
1000
00:48:08,561 --> 00:48:09,111
I don't know.
1001
00:48:09,361 --> 00:48:10,791
I personally have never tried it.
1002
00:48:10,861 --> 00:48:14,471
I have not delved into the
kind of things that I do now,
1003
00:48:14,521 --> 00:48:16,251
um, until the last few years.
1004
00:48:16,421 --> 00:48:18,231
So I was not a teenage witch.
1005
00:48:19,126 --> 00:48:23,616
I, I would love if anybody out there
has done this or wants to do this.
1006
00:48:24,261 --> 00:48:24,981
With us.
1007
00:48:26,231 --> 00:48:27,011
got, we got to try this.
1008
00:48:27,021 --> 00:48:28,661
If you've seen it happening and really
1009
00:48:28,751 --> 00:48:29,131
all for
1010
00:48:29,151 --> 00:48:29,521
to hear it.
1011
00:48:29,901 --> 00:48:30,981
They, hit us up.
1012
00:48:31,181 --> 00:48:31,451
Hit us up.
1013
00:48:31,451 --> 00:48:32,731
I want to hear some stories on that.
1014
00:48:34,181 --> 00:48:34,571
Yeah.
1015
00:48:34,901 --> 00:48:37,271
that scene, and then when she
says, what's the line she says,
1016
00:48:37,821 --> 00:48:39,421
you got to try that or something?
1017
00:48:40,141 --> 00:48:40,531
Yeah.
1018
00:48:40,656 --> 00:48:41,356
Yeah, you do.
1019
00:48:41,356 --> 00:48:42,316
I'd love to try that.
1020
00:48:42,336 --> 00:48:45,496
And when she's like,
guys, it's not working.
1021
00:48:45,506 --> 00:48:49,826
And she's this far off the ground, that
scene was that that's when it that's
1022
00:48:49,826 --> 00:48:51,826
when the movie really got fun for me.
1023
00:48:52,236 --> 00:48:55,196
Um, and out of the, just the
high school part, it was like,
1024
00:48:55,236 --> 00:48:57,016
Oh, we're getting serious now.
1025
00:48:57,046 --> 00:48:59,146
Like, this is like, what's up?
1026
00:48:59,166 --> 00:48:59,556
Like, that's
1027
00:48:59,591 --> 00:49:02,591
Of all the spells you see in this
movie, I think Light is a Feather,
1028
00:49:02,591 --> 00:49:04,721
Stiff is a Board is the most relatable.
1029
00:49:04,851 --> 00:49:07,671
The most, like, oh, we've all tried that.
1030
00:49:07,901 --> 00:49:09,281
Like, kind of a thing.
1031
00:49:09,581 --> 00:49:10,511
And heard stories.
1032
00:49:10,581 --> 00:49:11,681
Like we said, it's a myth.
1033
00:49:11,701 --> 00:49:12,321
It's worked.
1034
00:49:12,321 --> 00:49:13,051
It's not worked.
1035
00:49:13,061 --> 00:49:14,691
It's, you know, I love that.
1036
00:49:14,701 --> 00:49:18,341
That's something that they brought
into the movie, like you said, that
1037
00:49:18,961 --> 00:49:22,231
related to everybody, and then they
go into the deeper, darker stuff.
1038
00:49:23,071 --> 00:49:25,041
And why are they doing that?
1039
00:49:25,051 --> 00:49:27,201
What is this battle between these witches?
1040
00:49:28,031 --> 00:49:32,091
And so this is, again,
taking you back to the 90s.
1041
00:49:32,411 --> 00:49:35,431
Those of us who remember that time
period and being in high school.
1042
00:49:36,011 --> 00:49:38,821
Um, I don't know if high school
is still like it was in the 90s.
1043
00:49:38,931 --> 00:49:41,381
Uh, I would like to think we've grown.
1044
00:49:41,401 --> 00:49:44,851
We're in an awakened,
um, era, time period.
1045
00:49:45,241 --> 00:49:47,121
Um, a new renaissance, if you will.
1046
00:49:47,481 --> 00:49:53,396
But in the 90s, there was a very Big
class distinction between the popular
1047
00:49:53,396 --> 00:49:59,026
kids, those that belong, those that
are accepted, and those that are not.
1048
00:49:59,496 --> 00:50:04,536
And, um, I don't know if, you know, a
lot of movies in this time period came
1049
00:50:04,536 --> 00:50:06,736
out that were like high school things.
1050
00:50:06,876 --> 00:50:12,986
Um, they came out kind of with that theme
of like, these are the weirdos, right?
1051
00:50:13,345 --> 00:50:16,806
Nancy is a self proclaimed
weirdo and they're bullied.
1052
00:50:17,161 --> 00:50:20,601
they even tell, when they're
on the bus, the, she's, he
1053
00:50:20,601 --> 00:50:22,271
says, look out for the weirdos.
1054
00:50:22,301 --> 00:50:23,751
We are those weirdos.
1055
00:50:23,771 --> 00:50:24,671
I love that.
1056
00:50:24,681 --> 00:50:25,221
That hit.
1057
00:50:25,876 --> 00:50:30,516
I wish I had the confidence of Nancy,
uh, In that, you know, when I was that
1058
00:50:30,516 --> 00:50:33,466
age, I wish I had the confidence to
just like have my little goth heart
1059
00:50:33,486 --> 00:50:36,106
be out there and, and be myself.
1060
00:50:36,346 --> 00:50:43,506
I was the theater kid, um, which is almost
the same kind of geek, but I was not into
1061
00:50:43,506 --> 00:50:45,096
like witchcraft and things like that yet.
1062
00:50:45,106 --> 00:50:54,361
But I, um, What I want to point
out with this is that witchcraft
1063
00:50:54,361 --> 00:50:59,121
in all of the centuries that we
bring it up in, it often stems from
1064
00:50:59,271 --> 00:51:02,271
a place of powerlessness, right?
1065
00:51:03,171 --> 00:51:10,044
Like, marginalized groups and
societies, um, you know, uh, Rochelle,
1066
00:51:10,356 --> 00:51:14,666
you know, being called names, racist
names by the bully who, by the way,
1067
00:51:14,666 --> 00:51:17,976
was played by, uh, Christine Taylor.
1068
00:51:17,986 --> 00:51:21,446
She's, uh, Ben Stiller's
wife, played Marsha Brady.
1069
00:51:21,556 --> 00:51:22,156
Love that.
1070
00:51:22,166 --> 00:51:22,596
look at you.
1071
00:51:22,596 --> 00:51:24,136
Hmm.
1072
00:51:24,436 --> 00:51:28,296
she is obviously bullying
and making her feel terrible.
1073
00:51:28,326 --> 00:51:32,886
And, um, and so what's a way to
feel like you can gain your power
1074
00:51:32,886 --> 00:51:36,226
back that you can feel like,
listen, I don't have to take this.
1075
00:51:36,796 --> 00:51:40,491
I don't have to, um, degrade myself.
1076
00:51:40,571 --> 00:51:45,674
Uh, like, witchcraft was a way, and I
talk about this a little bit in the first
1077
00:51:45,731 --> 00:51:50,331
episode of Practically Magic I decided
to do on curses, because I wanted to talk
1078
00:51:50,341 --> 00:51:52,701
about, well, is cursing necessarily bad?
1079
00:51:53,461 --> 00:51:55,801
Or is there a purpose for it sometimes?
1080
00:51:56,031 --> 00:52:00,291
And, um, and she does the spell with
the braid magic, where she takes her
1081
00:52:00,291 --> 00:52:02,861
hair, she braids it into her hair.
1082
00:52:03,151 --> 00:52:04,941
I, Love braid magic.
1083
00:52:04,951 --> 00:52:06,681
I participate in braid magic all the time.
1084
00:52:06,961 --> 00:52:11,841
It's when you're braiding your hair
and you braid in weave in spells or you
1085
00:52:12,021 --> 00:52:16,271
chant or you put your intentions into
what you're doing when you're braiding.
1086
00:52:16,281 --> 00:52:18,111
So I love that they show
that in the movie because
1087
00:52:18,186 --> 00:52:18,411
Hmm.
1088
00:52:18,546 --> 00:52:19,756
I got a whole head here now.
1089
00:52:19,766 --> 00:52:22,636
Hey, Courtney, I need my, I need some, um,
1090
00:52:22,936 --> 00:52:24,636
You need to start getting
into some braid magic.
1091
00:52:24,936 --> 00:52:25,416
brain magic.
1092
00:52:25,416 --> 00:52:25,896
I like that.
1093
00:52:25,896 --> 00:52:26,156
Go ahead.
1094
00:52:26,246 --> 00:52:26,516
Go ahead.
1095
00:52:26,536 --> 00:52:26,806
Go ahead.
1096
00:52:27,266 --> 00:52:31,436
Yeah, which is a lot of why like the
Nordic cultures and you'll see braiding
1097
00:52:31,456 --> 00:52:33,736
in like a lot of indigenous peoples.
1098
00:52:34,546 --> 00:52:38,016
Um, all over the world, not just
Native American, but all over
1099
00:52:38,016 --> 00:52:39,496
the world there's braiding hair.
1100
00:52:40,596 --> 00:52:44,066
which can be related
right to that braid magic.
1101
00:52:44,076 --> 00:52:47,241
Like you're not just braiding
because it's cute or whatever.
1102
00:52:47,306 --> 00:52:50,966
You're braiding because you're putting
in a spell of protection, a spell of
1103
00:52:50,966 --> 00:52:55,216
empowerment, or in this case, she's
cursing this girl who's bullying her.
1104
00:52:55,836 --> 00:52:58,809
And I think that a lot of the cursing
that starts out when they start going
1105
00:52:58,926 --> 00:53:01,356
dark, it's not necessarily dark.
1106
00:53:01,626 --> 00:53:06,316
It's just that these poor girls
are powerless and helpless to
1107
00:53:06,316 --> 00:53:10,356
these high school, you know,
feelings of not belonging, right?
1108
00:53:10,676 --> 00:53:11,216
Yeah.
1109
00:53:11,356 --> 00:53:18,776
Now you, going back to Teen Witch, like
you see the difference in the curses.
1110
00:53:18,776 --> 00:53:22,376
Like there's not only that, it was
a difference in the love curses.
1111
00:53:23,486 --> 00:53:23,996
Yeah.
1112
00:53:24,416 --> 00:53:27,186
Like there's two, there's two of the
same curses and you got different
1113
00:53:27,186 --> 00:53:29,656
outcomes on both sides of that, right?
1114
00:53:29,696 --> 00:53:30,506
On both movies.
1115
00:53:31,036 --> 00:53:36,546
So what you're saying right now
is, Am I gathering this correct?
1116
00:53:36,606 --> 00:53:37,326
Am I getting this?
1117
00:53:37,446 --> 00:53:42,266
That a curse isn't good or bad?
1118
00:53:42,276 --> 00:53:44,366
It's, it's that person
who is, who is doing it.
1119
00:53:44,366 --> 00:53:46,556
It's the intention behind it.
1120
00:53:47,286 --> 00:53:51,866
And that's why that, that's why
witchcraft is not necessarily, it's
1121
00:53:51,866 --> 00:53:53,526
not all evil and it's not all good.
1122
00:53:53,661 --> 00:53:56,041
It's what Nancy and them said.
1123
00:53:56,041 --> 00:53:57,001
It's everything.
1124
00:53:57,001 --> 00:53:58,491
It's this and it's that.
1125
00:53:58,771 --> 00:53:59,491
I get it now.
1126
00:53:59,501 --> 00:53:59,911
I get it.
1127
00:54:00,121 --> 00:54:00,631
Oh my god.
1128
00:54:01,496 --> 00:54:01,856
Yeah.
1129
00:54:02,146 --> 00:54:06,986
And the girl, um, uh, Lirio, who plays
the, uh, who's the girl in the, um, the
1130
00:54:06,986 --> 00:54:10,676
shop, um, who helps Sarah when Sarah's
like a little bit in over her head and
1131
00:54:10,676 --> 00:54:14,636
she's like, my friends are going crazy
and people are dying and this is scary.
1132
00:54:14,886 --> 00:54:20,216
And she's like, she's letting her
know, like, uh, you know, true
1133
00:54:20,216 --> 00:54:21,826
magic is neither black nor white.
1134
00:54:22,581 --> 00:54:25,101
Is a quote that she says to, to the girls.
1135
00:54:25,131 --> 00:54:28,011
And this is something to
remember when people talk about
1136
00:54:28,031 --> 00:54:29,571
dark magic or black magic.
1137
00:54:29,571 --> 00:54:33,461
It's like Nancy in this movie is
representing our shadow selves.
1138
00:54:33,961 --> 00:54:38,751
And we all have a shadow
self, just like in astrology.
1139
00:54:39,051 --> 00:54:42,801
I'm a Pisces sun sign, for
example, and there's a lot of good
1140
00:54:42,801 --> 00:54:44,331
qualities about being a Pisces.
1141
00:54:44,971 --> 00:54:49,471
But when it shows up in its shadow
parts, it can be like, uh, desperate,
1142
00:54:49,471 --> 00:54:52,671
needy, over emotional, um, not grounded.
1143
00:54:53,031 --> 00:54:56,581
Um, and these are all parts of
myself that I can be when I'm not
1144
00:54:56,581 --> 00:54:58,551
really in my best, most aligned self.
1145
00:54:59,261 --> 00:55:04,001
And I think Every single person walking
the planet who has a human body is
1146
00:55:04,001 --> 00:55:08,231
going to be experiencing both the most
enlightened version of yourself or the
1147
00:55:08,231 --> 00:55:13,391
most aligned with your true self and the
most, um, you know, in the shadow parts.
1148
00:55:13,921 --> 00:55:15,141
They're not bad parts.
1149
00:55:15,471 --> 00:55:19,661
They're not parts that are
needing to be shunned or squashed.
1150
00:55:19,671 --> 00:55:23,081
They're parts that, uh, you
need to embrace and love.
1151
00:55:23,626 --> 00:55:28,436
About yourself in order for
it to be integrated into you.
1152
00:55:28,646 --> 00:55:29,016
Right.
1153
00:55:30,821 --> 00:55:30,981
It's
1154
00:55:31,216 --> 00:55:35,186
But Nancy, you know, run off
with her ego a little bit, maybe.
1155
00:55:36,471 --> 00:55:38,241
You think that hurt her in the end?
1156
00:55:39,116 --> 00:55:41,736
Uh, I think that's where she went wrong.
1157
00:55:42,036 --> 00:55:42,251
Yeah.
1158
00:55:42,531 --> 00:55:42,691
Yeah.
1159
00:55:42,961 --> 00:55:43,616
I mean, so.
1160
00:55:43,916 --> 00:55:47,966
see where she goes into her ego
self as she's driving the car.
1161
00:55:47,966 --> 00:55:51,986
And she's starting to be like, Oh, all
these lights are going to be green.
1162
00:55:52,846 --> 00:55:53,236
Watch it.
1163
00:55:53,236 --> 00:55:56,836
And then, uh, Sarah says, one of these
times the lights are not going to be
1164
00:55:56,836 --> 00:55:58,956
green and that's exactly what happens.
1165
00:55:58,981 --> 00:56:05,101
Now is that going back to You said
like, Wicca's got its own doctrines
1166
00:56:05,361 --> 00:56:10,211
and this and that and different forms
of witchcraft might also, is that
1167
00:56:10,221 --> 00:56:12,271
like a, is that a rule somewhere?
1168
00:56:12,301 --> 00:56:18,771
Like, basically don't get too big for
your britches, don't get that ego, don't,
1169
00:56:19,731 --> 00:56:24,951
don't think you're the best and biggest
and baddest out there, cause yeah, it's
1170
00:56:24,951 --> 00:56:28,001
gonna hit you, but it's still gonna
get you, is that what it is or what?
1171
00:56:28,646 --> 00:56:33,446
yeah, well, I mean, this is where it's
so interesting that, you know, like a,
1172
00:56:34,616 --> 00:56:42,326
maybe a naive Christian might think of
Wiccan or witchcraft as something so
1173
00:56:42,496 --> 00:56:47,396
different or so opposite or, you know,
it's the Antichrist, it's the devil,
1174
00:56:47,396 --> 00:56:49,246
it's the darkness, it's the evil.
1175
00:56:49,886 --> 00:56:54,876
Um, when in reality, almost all of
the teachings are pretty in line
1176
00:56:54,896 --> 00:56:57,316
with, in different words or ways.
1177
00:56:58,056 --> 00:57:04,106
what they teach in Taoism or in
Hinduism or in Buddhist or Christian
1178
00:57:04,106 --> 00:57:08,196
or, you know, we're like, treat
others the way you want to be treated.
1179
00:57:08,506 --> 00:57:10,336
That's kind of the basic rule.
1180
00:57:10,356 --> 00:57:11,426
Don't cast a spell.
1181
00:57:11,426 --> 00:57:13,296
You wouldn't want to
have come back to you,
1182
00:57:13,596 --> 00:57:13,896
Yeah.
1183
00:57:14,306 --> 00:57:16,686
Yeah, I like that too.
1184
00:57:16,686 --> 00:57:21,026
And it's, and, and it almost, it goes
back to, uh, our, an earlier episode
1185
00:57:21,026 --> 00:57:25,946
when we watched, uh, the Wickerman
and you had, Lord Summer Isle and
1186
00:57:25,946 --> 00:57:31,496
all of his, all of his fake biology
and his fake this and fake religion.
1187
00:57:31,496 --> 00:57:33,566
And he looks at, uh, the
other guy and he says.
1188
00:57:34,311 --> 00:57:40,081
Well, wasn't basically he says wasn't
Jesus born of a virgin and of a
1189
00:57:40,081 --> 00:57:44,251
ghost in any and he's like, uh Whoa.
1190
00:57:44,621 --> 00:57:47,591
Yeah, so it's when you
start laying it out.
1191
00:57:48,126 --> 00:57:48,586
Yeah.
1192
00:57:49,291 --> 00:57:51,241
It's it's it's it's incredible.
1193
00:57:51,241 --> 00:57:52,251
We're all that kind of
1194
00:57:52,876 --> 00:57:52,926
Yeah.
1195
00:57:52,926 --> 00:57:57,256
And as a Christian myself, I think
to myself, Even if it was just a
1196
00:57:57,256 --> 00:58:00,446
mythology, even if the whole story
of Jesus life and death was a
1197
00:58:00,446 --> 00:58:04,636
mythology, not real, not a real person,
does it make it any less sacred?
1198
00:58:05,536 --> 00:58:07,646
Does it make any of this any less sacred?
1199
00:58:08,026 --> 00:58:10,066
Is a tree any less sacred?
1200
00:58:10,136 --> 00:58:12,966
I mean, it's just, it's just
a different school of thought.
1201
00:58:12,996 --> 00:58:17,256
So, I mean, I think that's something
to, um, to take away from the idea
1202
00:58:17,286 --> 00:58:22,806
of, of witchcraft in this movie is
that I think that, the movie probably
1203
00:58:22,806 --> 00:58:27,396
was portrayed in Hollywood like,
Ooh, we're going to get into witches.
1204
00:58:27,396 --> 00:58:28,456
It's going to be scary.
1205
00:58:28,506 --> 00:58:29,446
People are going to love it.
1206
00:58:29,476 --> 00:58:33,536
And it actually ended up displaying
kind of a, well, a lot of the words
1207
00:58:33,536 --> 00:58:40,536
that they speak, um, in perfect love and
perfect trust to enter the circle, right?
1208
00:58:41,186 --> 00:58:42,476
Like, how is that evil?
1209
00:58:42,486 --> 00:58:45,746
How are we looking at this as
like, it's pure darkness and evil
1210
00:58:45,756 --> 00:58:48,266
where, you know, that's just it.
1211
00:58:48,296 --> 00:58:49,136
It's not it.
1212
00:58:49,146 --> 00:58:52,316
Nothing is nothing is pure
light and nothing is pure evil.
1213
00:58:52,316 --> 00:58:52,406
It's.
1214
00:58:53,906 --> 00:58:56,136
all the things depending on
the intention you put into it.
1215
00:58:56,226 --> 00:58:56,556
So
1216
00:58:57,441 --> 00:58:57,961
what you said.
1217
00:58:57,961 --> 00:58:58,501
It's everything.
1218
00:58:58,561 --> 00:58:59,521
I still love that.
1219
00:58:59,531 --> 00:59:01,471
I think that's a key part of the movie.
1220
00:59:01,521 --> 00:59:03,671
That's something that
stuck out to me as well.
1221
00:59:04,711 --> 00:59:07,411
I mean, what in this movie?
1222
00:59:07,411 --> 00:59:12,191
Like, what, what have you taken part of
that looks just like something because
1223
00:59:12,191 --> 00:59:16,261
this, the final scene when they go up and
they show up with their, their animals.
1224
00:59:17,166 --> 00:59:20,266
And um, is that the final scene?
1225
00:59:20,436 --> 00:59:21,106
Close to it.
1226
00:59:21,516 --> 00:59:25,576
Yeah, the climax of the movie
is where the snakes come in.
1227
00:59:25,856 --> 00:59:29,426
By the way, there were 10,
000 snakes used to film this.
1228
00:59:29,826 --> 00:59:32,036
000 more than I need to know about.
1229
00:59:32,216 --> 00:59:33,016
Like, that's,
1230
00:59:33,466 --> 00:59:34,096
Can you believe that?
1231
00:59:34,456 --> 00:59:35,986
Can you imagine what it
would be like to film that?
1232
00:59:36,046 --> 00:59:39,126
I don't mind snakes, but I still probably
would have had a problem with that.
1233
00:59:39,516 --> 00:59:43,156
My, my issue was more the maggots
and the toilet and all the
1234
00:59:43,166 --> 00:59:44,576
things, which reminded me of this.
1235
00:59:45,031 --> 00:59:45,891
Suspiria.
1236
00:59:46,661 --> 00:59:48,491
The maggots are raining from the ceilings.
1237
00:59:48,491 --> 00:59:50,851
I'm like, oh, no, thank you.
1238
00:59:51,586 --> 00:59:55,946
And the rats, the roaches, whatever it
was, like there was so much going on.
1239
00:59:55,946 --> 00:59:59,316
But yeah, I can't deal with
snakes, but I, yeah, I mean, yeah.
1240
01:00:01,211 --> 01:00:01,631
Yeah.
1241
01:00:01,711 --> 01:00:05,601
I don't know if you can call me a
witch, uh, in, in the case of, of like
1242
01:00:05,611 --> 01:00:09,761
how it would show up in Halloween and
stuff, because I'm like, no, thanks.
1243
01:00:10,971 --> 01:00:11,471
Yucky.
1244
01:00:11,996 --> 01:00:13,546
Did you catch the little Easter egg?
1245
01:00:14,361 --> 01:00:19,261
We, we see Chris early on when they're
playing football, he's playing football,
1246
01:00:19,756 --> 01:00:20,196
Yeah,
1247
01:00:21,041 --> 01:00:24,341
and I don't know if this was intentional
or not, maybe I'm way looking into
1248
01:00:24,341 --> 01:00:25,761
this, but he wore the number 86.
1249
01:00:26,971 --> 01:00:28,401
What's 86 usually mean?
1250
01:00:29,721 --> 01:00:33,681
You, you reject it, discard,
you cancel, you throw him out.
1251
01:00:33,711 --> 01:00:34,761
And what happens to Chris?
1252
01:00:35,271 --> 01:00:36,846
That's Skeet Ulrich's character.
1253
01:00:37,146 --> 01:00:37,816
Yes,
1254
01:00:38,491 --> 01:00:39,591
He was wearing the number 86.
1255
01:00:39,591 --> 01:00:42,141
I don't know if that's coincidence
or if they did it on purpose, but
1256
01:00:42,666 --> 01:00:43,656
I didn't catch it.
1257
01:00:43,716 --> 01:00:44,486
That's interesting.
1258
01:00:44,486 --> 01:00:48,316
Yeah, he was definitely, um, yeah.
1259
01:00:49,921 --> 01:00:50,621
Yeah, we didn't go too
1260
01:00:50,796 --> 01:00:56,396
Again, the theme of when witchcraft
is used to empower, this is an
1261
01:00:56,396 --> 01:00:58,416
example of why it's not pure evil.
1262
01:00:58,416 --> 01:01:02,056
I mean, this is an example of, you
know, here was this guy, obviously
1263
01:01:02,096 --> 01:01:03,866
in a very intense love spell.
1264
01:01:03,866 --> 01:01:06,756
And she was kind of like, she
really just wanted to humiliate him.
1265
01:01:07,256 --> 01:01:08,956
And this is just how it
ended up playing out.
1266
01:01:09,326 --> 01:01:15,061
But he's Attempting to sexually assault
her, rigor warning, sorry, it's, we're
1267
01:01:15,201 --> 01:01:24,126
in the movie, but she is lucky enough to
get away, but it's, um, it's this, idea
1268
01:01:24,186 --> 01:01:31,404
like, how do I, if I can't physically
overcome this, if I couldn't have gotten
1269
01:01:31,496 --> 01:01:34,246
away, he can physically overpower me.
1270
01:01:34,626 --> 01:01:41,652
Um, again, the witchcraft being associated
most with women, being that women are
1271
01:01:41,716 --> 01:01:46,951
more of the oppressed and helpless, in
situations where they need something like
1272
01:01:46,951 --> 01:01:50,381
witchcraft to feel more empowered, to
feel like more in control of their life.
1273
01:01:51,131 --> 01:01:53,691
So here's this kind of jerk.
1274
01:01:53,701 --> 01:01:55,591
He totally treats her horrible.
1275
01:01:56,146 --> 01:02:00,131
Um, tells everyone that they
had done it since high school.
1276
01:02:00,131 --> 01:02:02,491
You know, they're like, everyone's
saying, Chris is telling
1277
01:02:02,491 --> 01:02:03,901
everybody that you did it.
1278
01:02:04,141 --> 01:02:05,311
And she's like, no, he didn't.
1279
01:02:06,271 --> 01:02:08,551
And then he's like, I never
want to see you again.
1280
01:02:08,591 --> 01:02:10,431
And he tries to discard her.
1281
01:02:11,351 --> 01:02:13,441
So, I mean, this is her
taking her power back.
1282
01:02:14,161 --> 01:02:16,801
That moment where she's like, F you.
1283
01:02:17,391 --> 01:02:23,151
I was like, that feeling felt so familiar.
1284
01:02:23,171 --> 01:02:25,991
Not that I went through that experience
in high school, but just that feeling of
1285
01:02:25,991 --> 01:02:31,901
like boys making fun of you, boys being
terrible to you, boys being mean to you.
1286
01:02:31,981 --> 01:02:33,321
That was familiar to me.
1287
01:02:33,341 --> 01:02:34,951
And so it feels helpless.
1288
01:02:35,181 --> 01:02:37,621
It feels like I don't
have a comeback for this.
1289
01:02:37,721 --> 01:02:39,629
I don't have anywhere
to take my power back.
1290
01:02:39,751 --> 01:02:43,071
I just feel like I'm victim
to whatever they say about me.
1291
01:02:44,176 --> 01:02:47,926
It's got to be, that's like an
awful feeling, like that's, once
1292
01:02:47,926 --> 01:02:51,636
again, going back to wanting to
be a part of something, wanting to
1293
01:02:51,636 --> 01:02:54,326
belong, wanting to feel that way.
1294
01:02:54,776 --> 01:02:59,586
Yeah, because in the 90s, if you're a
girl in high school, you're either a
1295
01:02:59,586 --> 01:03:08,386
nobody, a weirdo, a slut, like Nancy
is accused of being, or a prude, which
1296
01:03:08,386 --> 01:03:11,516
is like kind of what Sarah was accused
of being, because she was a little bit
1297
01:03:11,516 --> 01:03:15,996
more buttoned up and a little bit more
Conservative and, um, and you can't
1298
01:03:15,996 --> 01:03:18,946
win, you know, girls, they can't win.
1299
01:03:20,206 --> 01:03:21,876
That's how it felt to me in high school.
1300
01:03:21,886 --> 01:03:21,936
It was
1301
01:03:22,056 --> 01:03:29,216
And I believe, I believe right
there when Chris has his, uh, issues
1302
01:03:30,186 --> 01:03:34,106
arise, we, without triggering too
much, that's after that and she gets
1303
01:03:34,106 --> 01:03:37,116
away, that's, that's when the music,
that's when Portishead, that's when
1304
01:03:37,116 --> 01:03:39,176
that Portishead scorn kicks in.
1305
01:03:39,796 --> 01:03:44,656
And to me, that was, I was like,
oof, that is, that's fucking heavy.
1306
01:03:45,006 --> 01:03:51,336
Like it was, that was, that was, That
had to be a tough scene to get approved
1307
01:03:51,346 --> 01:03:53,156
to even be in the movie, honestly.
1308
01:03:53,426 --> 01:03:54,826
Um, cause it was hard to watch.
1309
01:03:54,836 --> 01:03:55,826
It was just hard to watch.
1310
01:04:06,386 --> 01:04:07,116
I'll be down in a minute.
1311
01:04:09,176 --> 01:04:09,456
Okay.
1312
01:04:09,566 --> 01:04:09,996
I'm back.
1313
01:04:10,296 --> 01:04:11,016
I paused.
1314
01:04:11,016 --> 01:04:11,436
It was good.
1315
01:04:11,556 --> 01:04:15,986
Um, that, that part was the,
that part was hard to watch.
1316
01:04:15,986 --> 01:04:19,666
Like that had to be hard to
get across to the censors.
1317
01:04:20,296 --> 01:04:21,736
I don't even know how they
got that scene in the movie.
1318
01:04:21,736 --> 01:04:28,366
Cause it was a difficult piece to watch,
but heavy, heavy fucking thing to see.
1319
01:04:28,416 --> 01:04:33,551
Um, I want to ask you before we get
out of here, I want to ask you, What
1320
01:04:33,551 --> 01:04:37,791
you think about the, uh, theory, maybe.
1321
01:04:38,661 --> 01:04:43,861
Could be, could be accurate, but
there's a, the theory that Sarah was
1322
01:04:43,861 --> 01:04:48,441
the only actual witch and the rest
of them were actually just leeching
1323
01:04:48,681 --> 01:04:51,161
power off of Sarah, off of her magic.
1324
01:04:51,271 --> 01:04:53,871
Do you think that's the case,
or do they all have their own
1325
01:04:56,786 --> 01:04:58,166
I think that when.
1326
01:04:59,211 --> 01:05:04,067
I just take into, into consideration how
I feel or interact with magic in that way.
1327
01:05:04,131 --> 01:05:12,021
I think that it did take all four
of them to, um, participate in their
1328
01:05:12,021 --> 01:05:21,341
intentions together when they were all
in line in like, um, cohesive, and that's
1329
01:05:21,386 --> 01:05:22,841
when their power was the strongest.
1330
01:05:23,351 --> 01:05:28,361
It wasn't until Sarah was able to overcome
her fear and be able to invoke the spirit
1331
01:05:28,361 --> 01:05:31,391
herself and to say, I'm gonna need this.
1332
01:05:32,786 --> 01:05:36,916
As long as I can keep myself in check
and not do what Nancy did with it when
1333
01:05:36,926 --> 01:05:42,586
she invokes the spirit and took it
upon, took it into herself, she was
1334
01:05:42,626 --> 01:05:48,166
able to kind of be that light to Nancy's
dark if there was, you know, that.
1335
01:05:48,226 --> 01:05:53,146
Again, I think both have both, but it
kind of then was able to, you know,
1336
01:05:53,156 --> 01:05:58,513
have that final battle scene between
the two of them because they had
1337
01:05:58,513 --> 01:06:00,666
really powerful powers from Manon.
1338
01:06:00,666 --> 01:06:03,381
And so, able to battle it out.
1339
01:06:03,901 --> 01:06:09,261
Um, but I think that, I think that it
was all four of them working together
1340
01:06:09,296 --> 01:06:12,296
when they were calling corners, when
they were doing spells together.
1341
01:06:12,401 --> 01:06:17,071
Um, you know, Bonnie needed it to, uh,
which by the way, I forgot to mention
1342
01:06:17,071 --> 01:06:21,331
this part when her back is full of scars
and she's wanting to clear that up.
1343
01:06:21,361 --> 01:06:26,271
Um, it was Nancy who was
doing the hands over the back.
1344
01:06:27,561 --> 01:06:29,421
That's, that's Pretty much Reiki.
1345
01:06:29,451 --> 01:06:31,671
That's energy healing work
that she's doing there.
1346
01:06:31,681 --> 01:06:33,421
I mean, they don't call
it that in the movie.
1347
01:06:33,691 --> 01:06:36,631
Um, Reiki isn't necessarily
associated with witchcraft.
1348
01:06:37,071 --> 01:06:41,601
They are considered to be different
things, but that's, that's healing
1349
01:06:41,621 --> 01:06:43,921
energy she's putting into her body.
1350
01:06:43,921 --> 01:06:47,171
And she's doing that to
heal her scars on the back.
1351
01:06:47,201 --> 01:06:49,811
And I think, you know, during those
scenes, when they're all working
1352
01:06:49,811 --> 01:06:54,486
together, There is something to
be said for that collective power.
1353
01:06:55,081 --> 01:06:55,921
That's incredible.
1354
01:06:55,921 --> 01:06:57,031
I didn't even pick up on that.
1355
01:06:57,061 --> 01:06:57,941
So, look at you.
1356
01:06:57,941 --> 01:06:58,681
That's why we have you.
1357
01:06:58,691 --> 01:06:59,336
You're the expert.
1358
01:06:59,636 --> 01:07:00,006
Yeah.
1359
01:07:00,316 --> 01:07:01,466
Oh, it was interesting to me.
1360
01:07:01,466 --> 01:07:03,106
I was like, Oh, wow, look at that.
1361
01:07:03,376 --> 01:07:04,566
She's over there doing Reiki.
1362
01:07:04,596 --> 01:07:09,056
And because she is also a light
being herself, light and dark.
1363
01:07:09,066 --> 01:07:13,546
I mean, Nancy was never just evil
or just, she's, she's doing that
1364
01:07:13,546 --> 01:07:17,596
healing work to her friend because
she wants her friend to feel better.
1365
01:07:17,706 --> 01:07:21,941
There has to be the heart in
that to be able to, Um, project
1366
01:07:21,951 --> 01:07:23,411
that out through her hands.
1367
01:07:24,311 --> 01:07:26,301
So, it worked!
1368
01:07:27,236 --> 01:07:28,586
Final thoughts on the craft?
1369
01:07:30,171 --> 01:07:30,441
Yeah.
1370
01:07:30,441 --> 01:07:31,101
One more.
1371
01:07:31,401 --> 01:07:32,421
Uh, Rachel True.
1372
01:07:32,421 --> 01:07:34,011
Who plays, uh, Rochelle.
1373
01:07:34,561 --> 01:07:37,861
Um, I know we talked about, uh, theta.
1374
01:07:38,721 --> 01:07:39,741
Am I always saying her name wrong?
1375
01:07:39,741 --> 01:07:40,071
I don't know.
1376
01:07:40,071 --> 01:07:40,671
Far Balk.
1377
01:07:40,731 --> 01:07:43,701
She's, she became a Pagan
after this movie, right?
1378
01:07:43,701 --> 01:07:44,511
We talked about that.
1379
01:07:44,901 --> 01:07:49,341
But Rachel True is also dabbled in
witchcraft in her personal life.
1380
01:07:49,341 --> 01:07:55,101
And when I was gifted my first tarot
deck, before I was learning to read tarot
1381
01:07:55,101 --> 01:07:57,521
or anything like that, I was gifted.
1382
01:07:57,776 --> 01:08:02,256
Rachel True's tarot deck, which
is True Heart Intuitive Tarot,
1383
01:08:02,556 --> 01:08:03,206
Wow!
1384
01:08:03,546 --> 01:08:04,096
right there.
1385
01:08:04,966 --> 01:08:08,496
So she did, there's her name, I'm
going to put it in the camera,
1386
01:08:08,866 --> 01:08:09,636
Rachel True!
1387
01:08:10,256 --> 01:08:10,666
right there.
1388
01:08:11,246 --> 01:08:17,266
So she wrote this tarot deck and did the,
um, I believe the artwork for it as well.
1389
01:08:17,446 --> 01:08:21,856
So just a little side note there, um,
the first readings that I've ever done
1390
01:08:21,856 --> 01:08:23,366
with tarot have been with her deck.
1391
01:08:23,886 --> 01:08:24,576
I love that.
1392
01:08:26,146 --> 01:08:27,126
This has been incredible.
1393
01:08:27,316 --> 01:08:28,946
Teen Witch in the craft.
1394
01:08:29,296 --> 01:08:32,876
Yep, you did not know we had so much to
talk about with these two Teenage Witch
1395
01:08:32,986 --> 01:08:33,666
I didn't!
1396
01:08:33,826 --> 01:08:34,396
I didn't.
1397
01:08:34,466 --> 01:08:35,246
I'm glad we did!
1398
01:08:35,593 --> 01:08:37,253
. Man, Courtney, what'd you think?
1399
01:08:38,323 --> 01:08:42,303
two great movies, so much more
similar than I would have thought.
1400
01:08:42,833 --> 01:08:43,293
Right?
1401
01:08:43,793 --> 01:08:49,943
Like, I still can't get over the fact of
how different they were, but similar they
1402
01:08:50,083 --> 01:08:50,503
Yeah.
1403
01:08:50,603 --> 01:08:53,353
You would never look at the posters
of both of them and be like, Oh,
1404
01:08:53,493 --> 01:08:54,753
these movies belong together.
1405
01:08:55,443 --> 01:08:56,733
Ah, never, never.
1406
01:08:56,753 --> 01:09:02,313
But the big news here that we teased
way back before we even started
1407
01:09:02,313 --> 01:09:05,803
talking about the two movies was
the actor that we talked to and
1408
01:09:05,973 --> 01:09:08,263
interviewed about this movie.
1409
01:09:08,263 --> 01:09:09,453
Go ahead and tell them who it is.
1410
01:09:09,963 --> 01:09:10,953
Oh my gosh.
1411
01:09:11,623 --> 01:09:15,203
I started out saying I didn't
really know who the Teen Witch was.
1412
01:09:15,953 --> 01:09:20,143
And then when I watched it again and
realized who it was, Robin Lively.
1413
01:09:21,128 --> 01:09:22,008
Robin Lively.
1414
01:09:22,263 --> 01:09:25,013
Getting to see her in person
is maybe going to be one of
1415
01:09:25,013 --> 01:09:25,928
the highlights of my life.
1416
01:09:26,228 --> 01:09:27,928
And going to play that.
1417
01:09:27,928 --> 01:09:29,448
Well, we're going to, we interviewed her.
1418
01:09:29,458 --> 01:09:33,098
We're going to play that interview here in
just a minute, but that experience itself,
1419
01:09:33,138 --> 01:09:34,868
like really how crazy is that Courtney?
1420
01:09:34,878 --> 01:09:41,878
Because it was the same week this
was to air and the, like you said,
1421
01:09:41,878 --> 01:09:43,488
the universe put her in our path.
1422
01:09:44,458 --> 01:09:48,938
She was so warm inviting to us.
1423
01:09:49,318 --> 01:09:51,728
We told her what we were doing
with the Wits Movie project.
1424
01:09:51,738 --> 01:09:53,278
She, oh, she loved that.
1425
01:09:53,278 --> 01:09:53,538
Like.
1426
01:09:53,843 --> 01:09:57,723
Oh yeah, and telling her that I was
a real witch and that the message
1427
01:09:57,723 --> 01:10:01,433
of the movie being to empower young
women to feel their own power, that
1428
01:10:01,443 --> 01:10:05,593
we are really actually powerful
creatures, is really important to me.
1429
01:10:05,633 --> 01:10:08,983
And she was so kind, she was
right on board with that.
1430
01:10:08,983 --> 01:10:10,123
Isn't she,
1431
01:10:10,153 --> 01:10:10,663
to the interview.
1432
01:10:10,663 --> 01:10:11,373
Let's go check it out.
1433
01:10:12,212 --> 01:10:12,472
thanks.
1434
01:10:12,472 --> 01:10:14,282
We're here with Robin Lively.
1435
01:10:14,722 --> 01:10:15,012
Hi, how are you?
1436
01:10:15,482 --> 01:10:16,322
Now, and
1437
01:10:16,322 --> 01:10:19,022
I've also got a real
witch, Courtney Pearl.
1438
01:10:19,662 --> 01:10:21,302
Yep, real deal.
1439
01:10:21,332 --> 01:10:22,542
Yeah, she's gonna freak out a little bit.
1440
01:10:22,542 --> 01:10:24,842
Now, me and her have
the Witch Movie Project.
1441
01:10:24,882 --> 01:10:27,562
And, where we break down two witch movies.
1442
01:10:27,582 --> 01:10:31,792
And we happen to put The Craft vs.
1443
01:10:31,792 --> 01:10:32,302
Teen Witch.
1444
01:10:32,312 --> 01:10:32,692
I love it.
1445
01:10:33,252 --> 01:10:34,392
And which is the better one?
1446
01:10:34,802 --> 01:10:35,842
My picks, by the way.
1447
01:10:35,842 --> 01:10:36,842
I just have to say that.
1448
01:10:36,852 --> 01:10:37,642
She gets credit.
1449
01:10:37,652 --> 01:10:39,122
They were, but you know what?
1450
01:10:39,242 --> 01:10:40,242
We figured out.
1451
01:10:40,242 --> 01:10:42,302
We were like, these two
movies have nothing in common.
1452
01:10:42,992 --> 01:10:44,472
But we broke them down.
1453
01:10:44,732 --> 01:10:46,502
An hour and a half we
broke these things down.
1454
01:10:47,022 --> 01:10:49,402
And we realized, we're like,
whoa, the parallels are crazy.
1455
01:10:49,742 --> 01:10:51,242
There was like so much stuff that was I
1456
01:10:51,512 --> 01:10:52,072
love it.
1457
01:10:52,442 --> 01:10:53,582
But you played Louise.
1458
01:10:54,122 --> 01:10:54,592
I did.
1459
01:10:54,712 --> 01:10:56,032
Now, you've got a question.
1460
01:10:56,502 --> 01:10:56,892
Yes.
1461
01:10:56,902 --> 01:11:00,292
So, the theme of that movie,
and I feel like both movies, is,
1462
01:11:00,402 --> 01:11:01,872
like, empowering young women.
1463
01:11:02,202 --> 01:11:02,972
Absolutely.
1464
01:11:03,082 --> 01:11:03,812
What do you have to say about that?
1465
01:11:03,812 --> 01:11:06,952
Oh, I love that the message
still holds up, you know?
1466
01:11:07,292 --> 01:11:10,682
It's about, if you believe in
yourself, anything can happen.
1467
01:11:10,852 --> 01:11:11,042
Yes.
1468
01:11:11,612 --> 01:11:12,422
And I love that.
1469
01:11:12,532 --> 01:11:13,432
So, yeah.
1470
01:11:13,862 --> 01:11:15,032
You're finding true power.
1471
01:11:15,112 --> 01:11:15,552
You know what?
1472
01:11:15,812 --> 01:11:17,692
The movie, 1989, right?
1473
01:11:18,577 --> 01:11:18,647
It
1474
01:11:19,347 --> 01:11:19,867
holds up.
1475
01:11:19,887 --> 01:11:20,937
Like, we literally watched it.
1476
01:11:21,247 --> 01:11:21,727
We watched
1477
01:11:21,727 --> 01:11:22,157
it last week.
1478
01:11:22,217 --> 01:11:22,737
Do you guys know the rap?
1479
01:11:23,117 --> 01:11:23,387
No.
1480
01:11:23,677 --> 01:11:24,547
Oh, I
1481
01:11:24,547 --> 01:11:25,117
tried it on the
1482
01:11:25,117 --> 01:11:25,357
show.
1483
01:11:25,497 --> 01:11:26,237
You've gotta learn it.
1484
01:11:26,237 --> 01:11:26,637
Do you know it?
1485
01:11:27,067 --> 01:11:29,637
Supersonic, idiotic,
disconnected, not respected.
1486
01:11:29,637 --> 01:11:31,797
Who would ever really
want to go and top that?
1487
01:11:31,817 --> 01:11:32,097
Okay!
1488
01:11:32,097 --> 01:11:34,547
Top that!
1489
01:11:34,547 --> 01:11:35,407
You guys are awesome.
1490
01:11:35,407 --> 01:11:39,767
Now, oh my gosh, I'm blown
away that she just did that.
1491
01:11:42,152 --> 01:11:42,552
But look,
1492
01:11:42,582 --> 01:11:43,472
you did say it.
1493
01:11:43,482 --> 01:11:44,422
This movie does hold up.
1494
01:11:45,042 --> 01:11:45,902
I've been up here.
1495
01:11:45,902 --> 01:11:47,842
I saw kids up here that
couldn't even sit at a table.
1496
01:11:47,842 --> 01:11:48,532
No.
1497
01:11:48,642 --> 01:11:49,342
Isn't that the best?
1498
01:11:49,932 --> 01:11:50,512
It is.
1499
01:11:50,542 --> 01:11:52,482
Now we're also here with Promise to Live.
1500
01:11:53,082 --> 01:11:53,642
Promise to Live.
1501
01:11:53,842 --> 01:11:54,122
org.
1502
01:11:54,132 --> 01:11:54,842
Go to Promise to Live.
1503
01:11:55,062 --> 01:11:56,682
org and make the promise today.
1504
01:11:57,387 --> 01:11:58,337
You are not alone.
1505
01:11:59,067 --> 01:12:00,597
There's someone out there for you.
1506
01:12:00,607 --> 01:12:01,637
We love you.
1507
01:12:01,677 --> 01:12:02,847
You got this.
1508
01:12:03,317 --> 01:12:04,867
I think this is fantastic.
1509
01:12:05,267 --> 01:12:07,007
I support it 100%.
1510
01:12:07,247 --> 01:12:08,687
I didn't even have to ask for the message.
1511
01:12:08,687 --> 01:12:09,037
I love that.
1512
01:12:09,257 --> 01:12:10,227
Yeah, I love it.
1513
01:12:10,227 --> 01:12:11,257
You guys are awesome.
1514
01:12:11,627 --> 01:12:12,427
Believe in yourself, man.
1515
01:12:12,497 --> 01:12:13,377
Believe in yourself.
1516
01:12:13,397 --> 01:12:14,107
No, I gotta ask
1517
01:12:14,127 --> 01:12:15,487
for her though before we get out of here.
1518
01:12:15,517 --> 01:12:15,747
Yep.
1519
01:12:16,487 --> 01:12:17,697
Can she have this amulet?
1520
01:12:17,797 --> 01:12:19,577
Because she's, she's been
eyeballing this amulet.
1521
01:12:19,577 --> 01:12:19,787
Oh,
1522
01:12:20,047 --> 01:12:20,927
these are, I made these.
1523
01:12:21,417 --> 01:12:21,887
Did you really?
1524
01:12:21,887 --> 01:12:23,127
Yes, yes, I designed them.
1525
01:12:23,127 --> 01:12:24,667
I have a sweet little message on the back.
1526
01:12:24,667 --> 01:12:25,317
She's gotta get one of those.
1527
01:12:25,317 --> 01:12:27,607
And I hand did a bunch of this.
1528
01:12:27,607 --> 01:12:27,877
She's
1529
01:12:27,877 --> 01:12:28,547
gotta have one of those.
1530
01:12:29,057 --> 01:12:31,127
Yes, I worked on all of attest.
1531
01:12:31,167 --> 01:12:31,617
What's it take?
1532
01:12:31,617 --> 01:12:32,891
Just a few dollars.
1533
01:12:32,891 --> 01:12:34,484
We got a few dollars.
1534
01:12:34,484 --> 01:12:36,077
We got a couple dollars.
1535
01:12:36,077 --> 01:12:37,667
He's infused with a lot
of power, I can tell.
1536
01:12:37,677 --> 01:12:38,807
Oh, I love it.
1537
01:12:38,837 --> 01:12:39,617
Hey, thank you so much.
1538
01:12:39,617 --> 01:12:40,347
You guys are awesome.
1539
01:12:40,807 --> 01:12:41,387
Thank you.
1540
01:12:41,697 --> 01:12:41,737
Let's
1541
01:12:41,882 --> 01:12:42,865
what?
1542
01:12:44,085 --> 01:12:45,275
isn't she fantastic?
1543
01:12:45,865 --> 01:12:46,775
I love her so much.
1544
01:12:46,795 --> 01:12:47,475
I loved her.
1545
01:12:47,825 --> 01:12:50,185
Uh, did you get that amulet?
1546
01:12:50,985 --> 01:12:52,115
I did.
1547
01:12:53,175 --> 01:12:54,365
Got it right here.
1548
01:12:55,680 --> 01:12:56,050
Yep.
1549
01:12:56,330 --> 01:12:57,790
You gotta see the video to see it.
1550
01:12:57,820 --> 01:12:59,250
It's inscribed.
1551
01:12:59,610 --> 01:13:00,540
She has on the back.
1552
01:13:00,840 --> 01:13:02,270
She said she handmade these things.
1553
01:13:02,570 --> 01:13:02,590
Yeah.
1554
01:13:03,660 --> 01:13:07,050
I, and that's, I truly believe
that whether she knows it or
1555
01:13:07,050 --> 01:13:12,090
not, that is her creating a
spell that goes out to everyone.
1556
01:13:12,100 --> 01:13:15,600
So she has Louise's quote on
the back, believe in yourself
1557
01:13:16,210 --> 01:13:18,390
and right from the movie.
1558
01:13:18,410 --> 01:13:21,900
And I think that her putting these
out into the world for people is,
1559
01:13:22,010 --> 01:13:23,640
is just like creating a spell.
1560
01:13:23,700 --> 01:13:25,230
It's just like making real magic.
1561
01:13:25,340 --> 01:13:25,840
I love it.
1562
01:13:26,575 --> 01:13:32,295
I can't believe the
occurrences of events here.
1563
01:13:32,295 --> 01:13:33,935
The way that this all, this rolled out.
1564
01:13:34,040 --> 01:13:34,170
Synchronicities.
1565
01:13:34,275 --> 01:13:34,915
one episode.
1566
01:13:35,615 --> 01:13:37,675
Yeah, got her autograph.
1567
01:13:38,305 --> 01:13:42,915
She writes, she writes to me,
just to me, Courtney Pearl.
1568
01:13:43,195 --> 01:13:50,465
She says, to my witchy sister,
top that, right there, to me.
1569
01:13:51,795 --> 01:13:52,655
I love this.
1570
01:13:52,656 --> 01:13:52,845
Thanks.
1571
01:13:53,065 --> 01:13:54,305
She also gave me like three hugs.
1572
01:13:54,325 --> 01:13:55,145
I just love her.
1573
01:13:57,275 --> 01:13:59,115
I could see the energy between you two.
1574
01:13:59,115 --> 01:14:00,665
Like, it was, it was genuine.
1575
01:14:00,665 --> 01:14:03,425
And I even noticed that when
the interview was done, I saw
1576
01:14:03,435 --> 01:14:04,785
you two still chatting it up.
1577
01:14:05,295 --> 01:14:05,755
Oh yeah.
1578
01:14:06,165 --> 01:14:07,225
Oh, that reminds me.
1579
01:14:07,255 --> 01:14:10,015
I totally forgot what she said
because I was kind of in a fog, but
1580
01:14:10,055 --> 01:14:12,485
she said, you have such great energy.
1581
01:14:12,525 --> 01:14:15,135
And I was like, Thank you.
1582
01:14:16,755 --> 01:14:17,455
So did she.
1583
01:14:17,625 --> 01:14:18,095
Like, really,
1584
01:14:18,205 --> 01:14:18,825
You really did.
1585
01:14:19,065 --> 01:14:19,315
Yeah.
1586
01:14:19,365 --> 01:14:19,935
was great.
1587
01:14:20,265 --> 01:14:21,055
So, you know what?
1588
01:14:21,075 --> 01:14:25,665
So, very back early on in this episode,
I said this was the Battle of the Robins.
1589
01:14:26,490 --> 01:14:27,520
we know which Robin won.
1590
01:14:27,800 --> 01:14:28,810
It's got to be Robin Lively.
1591
01:14:28,810 --> 01:14:29,360
We talked to her.
1592
01:14:29,660 --> 01:14:30,335
Robin Lavely.
1593
01:14:30,930 --> 01:14:33,620
Now, if the other Robin wants to
come on, though, and talk to us,
1594
01:14:34,195 --> 01:14:34,875
100 percent.
1595
01:14:35,010 --> 01:14:37,440
we could Yeah,
1596
01:14:37,755 --> 01:14:38,235
Welcome.
1597
01:14:38,535 --> 01:14:40,815
I welcome anyone from
any one of these movies.
1598
01:14:41,365 --> 01:14:42,485
I'll talk to any of them.
1599
01:14:44,120 --> 01:14:45,150
We'll see you guys next week.
