Movie Mike
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles came out in theaters back in 1990, but just returned to to the big screen for its 35th anniversary. And I went to go see it and it was the first time I've seen one of my favorite movies of all time on the big screen. Because for me, TMNT 1990 is a top 10 film for me. So I want to talk to you about why this movie was so influential on my life, the crazy history behind this movie and how it was an independent film based on a comic book, which is so normal to us now. But it wasn't the case back in 1990. I mean we had Superman, which we had Batman going from 89, but there wasn't a formula that told you that if you made a comic book adaptation that it was going to work. Actually, a lot of people thought this movie was going to fail. But before I get into all that, I just want to tell you about my theater experience. So I'm going to review TMNT as if it were a new movie. Because really being there in theaters, watching this movie on the big screen for the first time, I saw it in a whole new light. And my biggest question going into it was, is this movie going to hold up? Because the interesting thing about this, since this movie is 35 years old, what I noticed going into the screening was that you had several different generations of fans going. Because you have me, who I almost feel like I'm like the second wave of TMNT fan. Because the original fans. I feel like you had to be born in the 80s to either discover the comic first or discover the cartoon and the toy line in the 80s. Because my older brother was born in 1984, the same year the Ninja Turtles were created. So he was a kid when they were at the height of their popularity because of the animated show, which was so tied into the toy line, because the animated show was essentially the commercials for the toys, and those were some of the most popular toys of all time. And it was his passion and his fandom for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles that led me to be such a big fan. And I probably didn't watch this movie until maybe I was 4 or 5 years old. So by the time I was introduced to tmnt, I already had the first three movies to watch. But there was always something about this movie that stood out to me as a kid, even though I didn't fully understand it. And I think it wasn't probably until I was a teenager that this became my favorite TMNT movie. Because to my young brain, Part two was actually my favorite through the majority of my childhood and because it had so much more comedic elements. And that is actually what they tried to do when making the sequel. Because this first movie is so dark and it's based more on the comic book, which does have more of a gritty tone. But that is exactly what came to life. And I wanted to know, when going to see this movie in theaters now, is it going to feel really dated? Is it not going to hold up on the big screen? Because as I saw all these different generations of fans, I saw people a little bit older than me, probably born in the early to mid-80s, the 80s, I saw people my age, but then I saw all of those people bring their kids with them. So they were 5 year olds to 10 year olds all going to experience this movie. They've probably never seen it. Maybe their dad made them watch it at home. And that was interesting to see because I wanted to know if they were going to enjoy it, because I think for me, I see this movie and I think it's a perfect movie. But now we've had so many iterations of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. We've had the animated movie. We've had the Michael Bay version of the Turtles. We've had them on Nickelodeon. So it's what is introduced to you is probably going to be your favorite. But it meant a lot to me to know if this movie would hold up for all these generations of fans or is it just going to look old and lame? But the thing that stuck out to me is after this screening, all those kids were still excited. I even heard them having conversations with their dad as we were all filing out of the theater, going up the escalator. One of these kids was so excited, like, wow, that came out 35 years ago. It was so good. And that made me happy because to me, going to see this in theaters, I really felt like the movie held up so well. It still hit me on an emotional level, probably more so than it ever had, because I kind of felt like this is a movie that I've spent a lot of time with, much like I would spend a lot of time with my favorite album. And you can spend so much time listening to your favorite songs, they become a part of you. But then it transforms you even more as a person when you go see those favorite songs performed live in person. And that is what this experience felt like to me. It was like I spent this entire time listening to this album, but never got to fully experience it live. And for me, going to the theater to watch a movie is like watching something live because it takes on a different life. You get to see it how it was meant to be seen, how this movie was designed. And there were so many things that stuck out to me more. First of all, this movie is beautifully shot as far as the composition that goes into all of these shots. The cinematography, it is there. And yes, there were some technical aspects that even in the original movie, they got some things wrong. And it's crazy because this movie was filmed so quickly that there were mistakes left in the original movie. If you go watch it on VHS or even some streaming services that don't have the updated version, there are some parts where you see the actors inside of the costumes, especially their scenes, like in the sewer, where they're Skateboarding. And you see them have a human hand. There are other aspects of the animatronics where maybe they open their mouth a little bit too wide, and you see some of the wires. You see the actor inside. There's a part in the final battle between the Ninja Turtles and Shredder. Wherever Shredder is going to attack Splinter to try and knock him off the top of the building. And you see the backdrop of the set, because a lot of this movie was filmed in a warehouse. Some of it was actually filmed on the streets of New York. But you can see in that moment that it's a big set, and you see almost this big curtain draped over. So things like that were left in the movie. And I was happy that they fixed all those in post production. But the movie just looks so good. It had that rich film quality. I want the warmth of a movie filmed on actual film and with characters that are actually there in the flesh. They use animatronics from the Jim Henson Company to make the Ninja Turtles come to life, which is something that we don't really get in the Michael Bay versions where they're all cgi, they're too big. And I feel like those movies would not hold up in this same way because that technology, that look is going to be so much more dated than the actual animatronic Ninja Turtles. The other thing that really stuck out to me, going to see this movie in theaters for the first time, was the score. It's so good behind all of these scenes, and it really helps create that environment, that sense of urgency. And it has this really dark undertone that it just lays the foundation for this story. Where it starts out very chilling. It builds up at times. It really brings the fight scenes to life. And I never really appreciated the score until I saw it in theaters and listened to all the instruments that has that 90s influence, which, of course, this movie came out in 90. So it's probably the remnants of the 80s sound, but it almost has, like, this punk vibe to it that fits the story so well, that really amplifies all the emotional parts of this film. And. And it was just so beautifully done and made every scene come to life. When it came to seeing the turtles fight and really capturing their raw emotion, which is what this movie is filled with and probably why it resonates so much more with me as an adult now. Because, like I said, Part two was my favorite as a kid. But now as I go re watch this movie, I realize the story and how it impacts me so much more. And how, yes, it is a story about these four turtles that are in the sewer, playing in this radioactive ooze that transforms them to grow bigger and bigger. Splinter, their father figure in this movie, is also affected by this ooze. He grows bigger and bigger and smarter and smarter and trains them to be ninjas. And yes, that is what this movie is about. Four teenage Ninja Turtles who fight crime. But going to watch this movie in theaters and viewing it like any other movie I would go see in theaters this year. It is a story about a father figure who cares so much about his sons and just wants to see them succeed by giving them all the tools they need to be successful from every mistake that they make. Because that's what teenagers do. They do dumb things. They don't listen to their parents. He always shows them how much he loves them. And not only them, but anybody he comes in contact with. He is this guiding light and just tries to help people. Even when he is being beaten and starved to a bloody pulp, he is still there, trying to see the good in people and trying to do the right thing. And the story is about these four brothers who are trying to understand that and trying to navigate this world where they don't think they will be accepted because they are confined to the sewers, they can't be seen. They can go and help fight crime, but they must remain hidden at all times. Even though they hide their faces with the bandanas. If you see a big turtle with a bandana, you're not thinking, I don't know who that is because they're wearing a bandana, you're gonna think, that is a huge turtle. I know exactly who that is. They don't need to cover their face, but it's for aesthetics. It's also because whenever the Ninja Turtles were first created, they all had red bandanas. And you really couldn't tell one apart from the other. So the creators decided to give them all different colors, put their letters on their belts. At least in the animated show, they don't have that in the movie. And they also all have weapons unique to them. So Leonardo is the leader. He has the twin katanas, which are these really huge sharp blades. He is given those because he is the leader. And it shows you that you have that leadership quality to wield those weapons. Also shows you how precise he is in the samurai tradition. The katana is a weapon of honor, and that is fitting for Leonardo. And Leonardo wears the blue. Raphael wears the red. He has the sai, which is the three pointed dagger, which at the Beginning of the movie, when he helps April o', Neil, he leaves one behind and she takes it and he's like, man, damn, I got to get that thing back. And that weapon is perfect for him because he's hot headed, he's very aggressive. And the sigh is for short close contact combat, which is perfect for his brawling style because he is just a lot of emotion, a lot of rage that just kind of comes at you. And that is what I love about Raphael. Then you have Michelangelo in the Orange, AKA Mikey, which is somebody that I gravitated to a lot as a kid. The reason I was called Mikey growing up was because of Michelangelo. So growing up, I felt like I was a Mikey. And it wasn't until I was an adult that I realized I'm a Raphael. And but he has the nunchucks, which are very fast and flashy, a little bit silly at times. So I think that's why they fit Michelangelo perfectly. He is the comic relief, and he has a lot of comic relief with his nunchucks in TMNT1. And then you have Donatello, who has the BO staff, which is interesting for Donatello, not so much in TMNT1, but later he becomes the tech brother who is so good with electronics and hacking into things. And it's kind of ironic that his weapon is the most basic of all. It's basically a big stick. But also kind of fitting because if you just have a big stick, that means you have to be more precise with it. You have to value technique and strategy more than just having a really cool weapon. And you probably know this by now, but they're all named after Renaissance artists. Leonardo da Vinci, Donatello, Michelangelo and Raphael. They're all Renaissance artists. I do want to get into the more emotional parts of this movie, but before I get sad, here are my top five funny moments from TMNT1. At number five is this joke that went over my head as a kid, but now as an adult, I get it. And even getting it now as an adult, it's almost twice as funny because Casey Jones is a very interesting character. He is somebody who was a professional hockey player and then got injured, so couldn't play hockey anymore and then just started fighting crime. Stumbles upon the Ninja Turtles and April o' Neal and then just kind of hangs out with them, even though nobody really questions that. He doesn't really have a job job. He just hangs out in sweatpants the entire time and then just becomes the normal part of them. But he's not the brightest guy. But he has some brute strength. So they're all going back into the city, back into the sewer, and he realizes that he doesn't like being down there. Euro claustrophobic.

You want a fist in the mouth? Never even looked at another guy before.

Movie Mike
And I didn't really get that joke as a kid. And even now as an adult, it's a little bit complex. Because the joke is that he thinks Donatello is calling him homophobic. And Casey Jones thinks that that would mean that he likes guys, which is not what homophobic means at all. It kind of means the opposite of that. But then it gets even more complex when you realize that Casey Jones actually is a claustrophobic. Because after this scene down in the sewer, he goes back up to his truck to go to sleep. And he has trouble falling asleep in the truck because that's also a tight space. So he opens up the window. So he is claustrophobic. And who knows if he likes guys or not. He got really defensive there, though. And number four was this quote from Michelangelo as he's watching a cartoon. And it's really quick, but I found myself saying this so much as a kid. Come on.
- [18:19]
Today Show Host
Don't just ninja.
- [18:20]
Movie Mike
Kick the damn rabbit. Do something. Hey. It's just funny because he's sticking up for the turtle in the cartoon, racing the rabbit. I just always thought that was funny. And number three was this scene when they first go hang out with April o' Neil at her apartment, and they're trying to impress her. And then Michelangelo bust out the impressions. You dirty rat. You killed my brother. You dirty rat. Must be Splinter's favorite. It was a joke, okay? And number two was right before that moment whenever she invites them up to their apartment and can only offer them one thing to eat.

Doesn't everybody?
- [19:19]
Movie Mike
Yeah.
- [19:19]
Danielle Fishel
Well.
- [19:21]
Movie Mike
All right. This scene was still funny, but I did notice some of the technical aspects. The frame rate is just weird. And I remember this as a kid, whenever Michelangelo comes up from the sewer, they speed it up. But they also kept his mouth still at that speed whenever he says that line, let's go for it. And that whole thing looks weird. That was one thing I did notice watching it on the big screen is how much their mouths do not align with what they are saying. So that was the only technical aspect that I thought. Oh, man, that looks a little bit off. It looks a little bit dated at times. But at number one is the most classic line of this movie. And I think I didn't really get it as a kid why the Ninja Turtles love pizza so much. It's because the only food that could be delivered was pizza. Think about it. Now we have Uber Eats. You can get anything delivered. But back in the 90s, it was really pizza. Maybe Chinese food. But if they are living in New York City, the easiest thing for them to order to get delivered would be pizza. Because they can be seen. They can't go out and get any food they want. They can't go to a restaurant. They have to get things delivered to them. Even though Raphael does go out to a movie, which was kind of weird, like, how are you not going to notice a turtle in a trench coat? But the origin of them getting pizza is because that's what they could get delivered to them. And he drops this gem of a line that is not only the best quote of the entire movie, one of the best quotes from any 90s movie. This is a 10. The tab's 13. You're two minutes late, dude. Ah, come on. I couldn't find a place. Wise man say forgiveness is divine, but never pay full price for late pizza. I gotta get a new route. That is a classic line. So those are my top five funniest moments from tmnt. All right, let's get to the emotional stuff. Now, this is why this movie is one of my favorites, is because you do have the fun things like that. There are the moments of levity. It was intended to be a movie for kids, but what I love, when somebody makes a movie for kids and doesn't undermine their brain, doesn't make something that just plays down to them because maybe they can't get some of these more complex things. You make something in its true form or honoring the comic that it is based on and not talking down to your audience, because the emotional level of this movie is off the charts. And I think it really captures that energy, that feeling of what it's like to be a teenager just frustrated with the world. And that is really what I took away from this movie and why it still holds up to me. And why it is one of my favorites, because I remember exactly what it's like to feel like this. And sometimes even as an adult now, I still feel these ways that the Ninja Turtles felt, dealing with these issues of having their father figure ripped away from them, feeling like outcasts, feeling like everybody in the world was against them, like they couldn't get any credit even when they did good things. So there's a moment in the movie where Raphael is just chilling on a rooftop and the entire Foot Clan, which is the bad guys that are out to get the Ninja Turtles. They are the secret organization run by Shredder. He is their leader. They all gang up on him and kick his butt so bad that he gets put into a coma for days. They leave the city and go out to a farm and put him in a tub and just wait for him to wake up. Until one day where Leonardo has been just watching over him, he feels guilty. Raphael finally wakes up. Hey. What? Raph, you're awake. Yep. How do you feel? What's a guy got to do to get some food around here? Hey, hey. He's awake.
- [22:59]
Today Show Host
He wants some food.
- [23:01]
Movie Mike
Bring some food. Just the emotion in Leonardo's voice in that moment, how happy he is because he thought that Raphael was dead. He thought it was going to be his fault. And to finally see him come to life. And rap is kind of in this state of like, I'm all right, man. He's just happy to be awake. And that is one of the most genuine interactions between these two characters. Because they've been button heads this entire time. Because Leonardo is the leader. Raphael doesn't want him to be the leader, really. They just butt heads because he doesn't want to do everything that Leo says. He's like, oh, you're the great leader. Everybody listens to you. Much like you would your older brother, your older sister. You would just clash just because they are older and wiser than you and maybe sometimes do have things in your best interest that you don't realize at the time. And. And this is the manifestation of that. And it's something that's always resonated with me, having an older brother and an older sister, where at times we were always just at each other's throats. But in moments of turmoil and when things get really bad, you know that they are there for you. And that is what I felt in that moment. So Raphael waking up after being in a butt induced coma is at number five and number four. This movie has one of the best final battles of all time. Splinter was taken from them, and they had their butt beat in the process trying to figure out where he was. They had to go out to the farm to find themselves and then come back to the city to take on the Foot Clan. And the final showdown is with Shredder. And it is such an emotional match as each Ninja Turtle comes up individually trying to take him down, trying to prove that they have been given the skills by their leader to take down this evil villain. And then this moment comes in the fight where all that emotion, all that crap just hits the fan.
- [24:54]
Today Show Host
Where's splinter? Ah, the rat. Huh? Sword has a name. It had a name.
- [25:05]
Movie Mike
You lie.
- [25:08]
Today Show Host
Do I?
- [25:18]
Movie Mike
And it's that raw emotion that I'm talking about. What you heard there was Leo getting just all this rage built up into him and lets out that as he charges shredder. Like, that emotion is what I look for in a movie. I love that so much. Because he just wants to find splinter. He hates shredder so much in that moment. And you just hear all that manifestation in that scream right there, which we're gonna hear more screams. And I got a little bit emotional there, but this is how passionate I am about this movie. But I have that Leo charging shredder as my number four emotional moment in this movie, because they were just told that, yeah, I killed him. What are you gonna do about it now? But then shredder pins him and then almost kills Leo, and they all surrender their weapons. But it does lead to them eventually defeating shredder after splinter throws him off the roof. Next up, my number three most emotional moment from this movie. I don't know how I'm going to make it through this list. But at number three is whenever they're out at the farm and they go to meditate, Because Leo had this quick moment when he was meditating before this, where he had a vision of seeing splinter a little bit, but more so hearing his voice and knowing that if he took all his brothers out there and they all worked hard together, they could manifest their powers through meditation and find out if splinter is alive or not. And splinter comes to them in a vision. They're all sitting around this campfire, the flame turns from red to blue, and almost a hologram appears, Much like it would in star wars of splinter. And he drops this line on them.
- [26:57]
Today Show Host
And always remember the true force that bind you, the same as that which brought me here tonight, that which I gladly returned with my final words. I love you all, my sons.
- [27:19]
Movie Mike
And then they're all crying. You see Michelangelo with the tear design, Much like I do right now, because they saw splinter in this vision, and with all the crap he is going through, he is still giving them advice and just reassuring them that out of everything, all they need to know is that he loves them like man. Maybe it's because I think back on my relationship with my father, he would tell me that he loved me. I take that back, he wouldn't always tell me, but he would show me. I do remember him. Maybe when I was young, young, like kindergarten, maybe first grade, he would tell me that he loved me. Later, as I got older, I think it was harder for him just because, like, man, you know, you don't say you love you to another man, even though they're your son. But he would show me in ways like taking me to Burger King, getting me the Pokemon toy, taking me to get a video game, basically making sure I was fed and at times, entertained when we can afford it. And it's even now as an adult that he does that. Like, one time, I went home as an adult, maybe three or four years ago, and he found out my favorite drink was Topo Chico. So he went to the gas station and bought every single Topo Chico that that gas station had in stock and brought them all for me for the weekend, even though I couldn't even drink all of those in a weekend that I was home visiting my parents. But he knew I loved the drink. Maybe in that moment wanted to tell me that he loved me, didn't. But instead he showed me by getting me every Topo Chico from the Shell gas station. So maybe that's also why that scene hits a little bit. At number two is the first moment that they realize that the sewer has been broken into. Their lair has been destroyed, and Splinter has been stolen. He's been kidnapped or rat nabbed. Raphael just had this big conversation with Splinter. Splinter was telling him that he needs to control his anger, which he tries to do that all throughout the film. But once he realizes that Splinter has been stolen, he freaks out. Just a plus, screams all movie long. He screams so loud that what you hear there at the end is somebody walking over the sewer, and they hear his scream coming from underneath. And like, what the. But at number two is Raphael freaking out in that moment. And at number one again, because this movie is filled with rage emotion that I just identify with. Maybe I just have this rage deep inside of me. But at number one is from the first battle between Casey Jones and Raphael, after Raphael stops these two thieves from stealing a woman's purse and he fights them off of the woman. But then Casey Jones steps in and says, now we got to take it up a level and teach them a real lesson by really kicking their butt. And Ninja Turtles really aren't about that life. They're all about stopping crime, but not beating up people for the sake of beating up people. That's not the ninja way. But that turns Into Raphael and Casey Jones having an epic showdown early on in the movie. Raphael knocks out Casey Jones with a bat, and then Casey Jones knocks him out with a cricket paddle and then drops this insult on him. Love freak. I got work to do. Freak. Freak.

Today Show Host
Come back here. I'm not finished with you. Damn.
- [30:35]
Movie Mike
All movie long, Raphael just yelling, damn. Screaming at people. That is still my favorite part of this movie as an adult, I think, going into where the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are going where the Last Ronin is still in production, still in development. I think if they take the same blueprint that was made with this 1990 movie and apparently apply it to the Last Ronin, which is an even darker graphic novel than the original comic book, I honestly think that's all you need to do, because this movie, if you added some blood and added some more violence, would be rated R. And it's wild that this is considered a kids movie because if you just listen back to the things that we've talked about, they're not the most family friendly moments. But why is this movie still relevant and so important? It was really a landmark film back in the 90s directed by Steve Baron, who shot this movie in 40 days on a $13.5 million budget. That is fast, that is cheap. And the movie went on to gross over $200 million. It got that sequel. Steve Baron at the time was known for directing music videos like Michael Jackson's Billie Jean and also AHA's take on me music video, which is that cool animation. So maybe not my first choice of who I thought would bring the Ninja Turtles to life, but he really took Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird's story and did it justice, which they are the original creators of tmnt. They didn't really have a whole lot of creative control as far as final decisions, but they did help them during the development of the movie. And even though they kind of went back and forth on like, should we turn our comic book into a big movie, they knew that this would cement them in pop culture if it was successful. The movie was shot in September 1989 in Wilmington, North Carolina, which, like I mentioned earlier, some exterior shots were shot in New York City. Some of the things they experience that they don't really talk about is that so many actors experience heat exhaustion, which you hear now, people who play superheroes like Anthony Mackie, they don't want to wear the mask the entire time, which I think is why they have kind of shifted to some digital suits and nanotech is because it is a pain to. To make movies like this. But you had actors and stunt performers in this Ninja Turtles movie overheating inside of these things because they are so big. And it's not only that you're wearing these big rubber suits, but you're also under these massive studio light. And not only were they super hot, they were also hard to work, which the movie was riddled with mechanical failures and facial expressions that didn't come across right. And you think about it, too. You're inside of this big suit. You have such limited visibility, but then you're supposed to do these fight sequences that have to look so real and so authentic. It led to take after take after take. The filming of this movie was not easy. It was a nightmare. And, yes, it probably is easier to make a CGI turtle where you just have somebody kind of wearing the exoskeleton, kind of like they do the Incredible Hulk now, where Mark Ruffalo puts on the suit. It's big and bulky, and it kind of outlines the character. But then they go into post production, and with cgi, they put the character in. But there's just something about having a tangible thing that you can interact with that just feels so much more authentic. And that was captured here. And that's what made this movie work, even though they probably almost died doing it. Because actually, in that last scene that I played, whenever Casey Jones fights Raphael and he gets thrown into a trash can, the actor inside of the raft suit actually broke his nose. And if you go and watch the movie, you can actually see him get up from the trash can grabbing his nose because he broke it being flung into the trash can. But the movie went on to be a huge success, and it became the highest grossing independent film of all time until the Blair Witch Project came out in 1999. But to me, it's just wild to look back on TMNT1 and think that was an independent movie, because now it is a huge franchise. You have several generations of fans. And I'm so glad I got to go see this movie in theaters and see turtle fans from every walk of life just come and enjoy this movie on the big screen. So if they do this for the 40th anniversary, I'll be right back there as well. And to that I say, cowabunga.

Movie Mike
Now A Spoiler free Movie Review of K Pop Demon Hunters I was unaware how much I was just gonna instantly love this movie. Obviously I'm a huge fan of animation, Sony animation in particular, from the same studio that brought us into the Spider Verse. Across the Spider Verse. Just the animation alone in this movie is beautiful. It is so fluid and vibrant and so much expression in all of these characters that if you strip this movie of the voice acting of the music, it would still be a delight to watch. And a weird thing to say about animation in 2025. Sometimes I just feel like it lacks inspiration, it lacks originality. Obviously some of that comes from animation being so expensive because it takes so long to make. But if you are going to make a movie that really stands out, you have to commit to giving us something visually that we haven't seen before. And Sony is really great about doing that. And the reason I love this movie so much, just on an animation standpoint, is because I feel like this is a movie I wish I grew up with. And growing up in an era in the 90s and 2000 where there were so many movies that had so much artistic thought put into them that we don't really get right now that I feel like some young people are being robbed of that. With movies like this, I think, oh, this is going to be a nostalgic movie for a kid in 10 to 15 years where you remember something really good you watched as a kid. You go back and watch it because it's so nostalgic. That is what I get from K Pop Demon Hunters. And knowing that they are still putting movies like this out into the world that are not only crushing records on Netflix, but this past weekend went into theaters, which is something that Netflix rarely does. But they know how much of a cultural impact this movie is having because the song golden not only is fantastic in the movie, but also went number one on the Billboard Hot 100. The all the songs in K pop Demon Hunters are so infectious. I'm still singing yo my soda pop yo my soda pop golden just has this very massive feel to it. And it's really hard to make a music movie because not only do you have to make the story compelling, the music has to be good. Because the movie is about a K pop band named Huntrix that is at the top of their game. They're selling out stadiums. They have a massive fan base. They are also demon hunters. They come from a lineage of people who have been not only entertaining audiences, but also killing demons with their voice. So you have Rumi, Mira and Zoe, who are all unique in their own way, much like you would find in any K pop or pop band. And they are so close to reaching the final stage in their journey as demon hunters. And all is going well until they have to face off against a rival boy band, the Saja Boys, whose members actually happen to be demons. So you have these two pop forces fighting against each other. And not only is it just about good versus evil, the pop stars fighting the demons. This movie makes a really big statement on the music industry because underneath all the demon hunting, you have the pressures of what it's like to be a pop star. Rumi is the leader of the K pop band and she has been pushing them harder and harder to achieve this level of greatness. They are about to wrap up this tour and they're all excited to take a break. All they want to do is hang out on the couch. And she pushes them to continue forward because they are so close in their journey. So right after their tour, they're about to go on break and she decides to drop their next single, Golden. And at that time, she starts struggling with her voice. And you start to see all these little details about how much pressure there is on pop stars to continue pushing forward when they're at the top of their game, when they're selling out the stadiums, when their fan base is at an all time high, their social numbers are off the charts, their singles are selling like crazy, and there's a demand to keep putting out more new music, keep touring the world, keep up with appearances, keep doing interviews, and it shows you how all those things can really start to wear you down. And and how much pressure there is on an artist when it's all about your ability to perform, your ability to get on that stage. Whether you're sick, whether you're tired, whether you need rest, whether you're hungry, you have to go up there no matter what. And it shows how much that can really tear a person down. And even though they love their fans so much, they put them first, they try to do all these things to make sure that they are happy. They know how. Also that is a very delicate line to walk about how much of yourself do you want to give away and how much do you want to keep their attention? Because in the pop world, it is so hard to keep your fan base just right there with you. More than any other genre, you can be cool one day and uncool the next. So it also speaks on that pressure of just remaining relevant. And everything you put out has to be the best. That has to go number one. And if it doesn't, you start to feel that pressure of you becoming a little less relevant. You starting to lose your fan base. And then they have this rival boy band come out of nowhere and they're also secretly demons showing you the evil side of the music industry. And suddenly they are all fighting for attention, which is all what it means to be, to be a pop star. You're just fighting for people's attention. And in this case, they're also fighting to keep their fans safe and keep the entire world safe from all of these demons. I really love that over the weekend they decided to put this movie into theaters and have these sing along screenings because I think that is what movie theaters really need to lean into more to get people engaged. That is something that you can't get from watching at home. Because I think I see this debate online all the time of like, why would I go to a movie theater when I have a big screen TV and I have a big sound system at home? You know what you can't get at home? You can't get community. And seeing K pop demon hunters in a room full of people who are all there that already know these songs. Because like I mentioned earlier, all these songs are so catchy. And to go into an environment like that with all these like minded fans, you can't get that at home. You can't get that community of going into a theater of strangers to sing along to a movie that you've all spent time with and love now. And you all have this shared experience in this room and then leave there completely changed because of it. So I think we have seen in the past year or so movie theaters really start to embrace that more. Maybe it got a little bit out of hand with the Minecraft screenings of people losing their crap. So I don't think they want another chicken jockey situation with every movie like this that has viral success. But I think their ability to realize that there is something here, and I do credit Netflix to that. We should put this thing in like 1700 theaters and see what we can do, because Netflix doesn't really need to do that. I feel like they care more about putting movies in theaters that are going to be able to be nominated for Oscars. But here, if they can make more money from a big hit on their hands and create a sense of community, create somebody wanting to spend more money with their Netflix subscription and keeping that, I think that is a powerful thing. And I think with Netflix not really having a movie with Big ip, this is one they're really gonna sink their teeth into and really get all that they can out of it. We're gonna start getting pop toys and more merchandise out of this movie. So I think this could be one of their flagship movies. So I'm glad if there's a movie that they are going to really push like that, it is one that is actually good for everybo. There is something about going to the movies that I realize some people think is weird and that is going to the movies alone. And I have been doing that my entire life. That I forgot that to some people, that feels a little bit awkward. But I am here to tell you, if you are a fan of a movie and want to go see it in theaters, don't think twice about going to the movies alone. And I know how weird it can feel. You think everybody's looking at you. You think that other people who are there with friends or family and a group of people are going to look at you weird because you walk in with nobody, don't even think about that. Nobody cares. You feel these eyes on you, but they are not there. If you want to go experience a movie in theaters and you're worried about being a weirdo going alone, don't even think about it that way. Because what you're going to find is that most everybody keeps it themselves. Nobody second guesses it and you're robbing yourself of that experience. So even with a movie like this, if you wanted to go to a sing along and you didn't have a friend to go to because they don't like movies about K Pop Demon Hunters, don't rob yourself of that experience. Because going to something like this where maybe you don't know anybody, you could find some real community there, you could find other people who you don't even have to talk to anybody. But maybe you do end up meeting somebody who is also there alone. Because I think that is what I love about going to the movies, is that even though you are a room of strangers in that moment, you're all kind of in it together. You're all laughing at the same parts, you're all cheering at the same parts, and in this case, you're all singing along together. So never let that worry of feeling like you're gonna be a loser going to a movie alone. And that is coming from me, the biggest loser ever. When it comes to doing things alone without having friends, people aren't going to think you're weird unless you go do something weird. And don't do that. Just please don't do that. So when it comes to K Pop Demon Hunters, much like Huntrix in the movie, they were known for their three part harmonies. This movie, to me, a great three part harmony with great music, great animation style and a story with heart because it left me just very emotional at parts. So for K Pop Demon Hunters, I give it four out of five soda pops. You don't need $11,000 to buy Bitcoin. You just need a plan.

Movie Mike
Are sports movies trying to make a comeback? Because F1 crushed it earlier this year. And I know when we think about sports movies, we probably think about the ones we grew up with. Sandlot baseball movies, football movies like Varsity Blues, F1, still a sports movie. And even though the race motorsports genre has been a thing for a long time, it feels different. And I think that is going to be the key. Excuse me, going to be the key to sports movies returning is we have to get away from those traditional sports and give us things that we haven't seen done before. That is what movies are all about right now. You have to bring us novel things, things that I have not seen or witnessed with these eyeballs or told in a way that is more unconventional, that feels new, that feels fresh, that doesn't feel like Disney just making a really great story into a very, just okay by the numbers type sports movie. Which still, even though they are predictable at times, even though they can be on the fringes of going full out cheesy at any moment, I still love me a good sports movie. But I think to make something that is really impactful in 2025, going into 2026, we have to look outside of those traditional sports that we've kind of seen covered. Even F1 didn't really reinvent the racing motorsport genre, but it brought us something great and something that demanded the big screen. Could that be the case here with Marty supreme, starring Timothy Chalamet, which is about a guy who plays table tennis. It is based on a true story, although it's not a biopic because the actual guy's name that it is based on, his name, Marty Reisman. But in this movie, he goes by the name of Marty Mouser and then takes on the Persona of Marty Supreme. But it's about his rise to fame in the 1950s as he chases his dream of being a professional ping pong player. The movie also stars Gwyneth Paltrow and a couple of wild cards that I want to get into. But before we do, here's just a little bit of the Marty supreme trailer. I know it's hard to believe, but I'm telling you, this game that fills.

Movie Mike
You have no power here. What do you plan to do if this whole dream of yours doesn't work out? It doesn't even enter my consciousness. So even though it is based on a true story, the actual story in this movie is entirely fictional. So we have a real life person. Marty Reisman was an American ping pong player who won 22 major ping pong titles from 1946 all the way to 2002. I myself don't really know a whole lot about table tennis. I remember the game on maybe I think it was Xbox360, possibly PS3. Rockstar made it, which is also the same company that makes all the Grand Theft Auto games. And it was a really weird game for them to make. But that is my extent of any experience playing the sport is only playing it on Xbox360. This movie is coming out on Christmas day of this year, directed by Josh Safdie, who you might think, why does that name sound familiar? Maybe you heard this TikTok sound go viral maybe two, three years ago. It was Julia Fox on Call Her Daddy and she said this. I was Josh Safdie's muse when he wrote Uncut Job, right? So Josh Safdie is usually a part of a directing duo with him and his brother Ben Safdie, who have directed movies like Good Time and like Julia Fox said there in that clip, uncut gemstone. This is the first time he's done a solo movie since 2008. Normally it's him and his brother teaming up, but his brother has been busy. This year he's about to put out the smashing machine with a 24 that stars the rock. So two incredibly talented directors who not only can come together and make great movies as a directing brother duo, but also separately now really starting to just dominate when it comes to making movies like this, movies that you didn't think were going to be good, which of course I haven't seen this movie yet. But whenever this movie was first announced that Timothee Chalamet would be starring alongside Gwyneth Paltrow in a movie about a guy who's really great at table tennis. Directed by Josh Safdie. I was like, how is this movie even going to make sense? And from the moment I heard what this movie was about and then when I heard who was all in this cast, because you also have one of my favorites, Tyler, the creator, who is not really an actor yet, he's kind of dipping his toes into the waters, which I think a lot of musicians have done. Some have had successful careers crossing over. Some became more famous as actors than they ever were as musicians. I love his music so much. He is the one artist who I've still not seen in concert that is on my bucket list. And I'm kind of in a year Right now where I'm not going to concerts because they are so expensive. I have to be really driven to go see an artist and want to spend that amount of money. And he is up there on that list of mine, but has just not come to Nashville. But I will go see him for the low price of $0.55 using my regal Unlimited in Marty supreme on Christmas Day. The movie also stars Fran Drescher, who you probably remember best as the nanny. And the most oddball casting in Marty supreme has to be Kevin o'. Leary, the Kevin o' Leary from Shark Tank. And he plays a rich guy in this movie as well. So maybe it's not that much of a stretch, but I just did not expect to see him in this trailer and think, oh man, he can actually kind of act because he is my least favorite shark on Shark Tank. Just because, man, dude loves a royalty deal. And I think the reason he is so successful in business is because he knows what he wants. He knows what he wants to pay for things. He will cut you down in an instant. And even though I hate him sometimes on that show, I realize he is doing his job because he is supposed to be the villain on that show. And just the fact that maybe I hate on him because he is so successful that I wanted to see him in this trailer and think, ah, look, there's something that you can't do well. You can't do everything. And then I see him and he looks so convincing. It looks like he was perfectly cast. And it's just such an oddball pairing of all these people. It was almost like they put a bunch of actors names into a hat and just pick them out randomly that I don't think anybody would think this is my dream cast for a movie. I would never put Fran Drescher next to Tyler, the creator, but somehow I think this is going to work. It reminds me much of whenever they first made the Facebook move and you thought, man, they're making a movie about Facebook that is going to be so, so stupid. But then David Fincher proved us all wrong and dropped a banger back in the 2000 and tens. And I'll compare it to one of my favorite activities to do when I'm feeling overwhelmed, when I'm just loaded up to my neck and anxiety. Sometimes I'll go over to YouTube and I'll watch old Bob Ross videos. He was that famous painter, did the Joy of Painting. He had the big afro and he talks in such a calming voice. He paints happy little clouds. And I would watch that show and think, man. After listening to him and watching his tutorials, I think I, too, could be an artist. Because sometimes he would just take a big blob of black and throw it on this canvas and say, I'm gonna turn this thing into a mountain. And that thing is just like, right there in the dead center. And it looks so awful. He had just painted this beautiful sky, all these happy little clouds. It looks so perfect. And then he just drops this big black blob. And I'm like, man, you just ruined it. But then he starts to just kind of paint away at this big black blob with some white. And he fades it a little bit, These little brushstrokes that he does, it suddenly starts to fade into the background. And then it goes from being this big black blob to being this beautiful mountain with a snowy top. And it came out of nothing. And it came at a point where you thought, there's no way this is going to work and be beautiful. And now here it is, a beautiful painting with a beautiful mountain. That is how I feel from the moment I learned about this movie, from the moment I learned about the cast. And now at the first look of it, thinking, man, this all makes sense. This all came together beautifully, much like that mountainside that Bob Ross painted on the Joy of Painting. And sometimes all you need is that visionary, that artist like Josh Safdie, to bring all of these lovely colors together. In this case, it would be all the actors and use his camera, much like Bob Ross would, a paintbrush to create something special. The movie is also coming out on Christmas Day of this year, so it is right smack dab there in the middle of Oscar season, which, if I know something about Timothy Chalamet, is he is hungry for an Oscar. He gave it his all last year, got really close playing Bob Dylan in a complete unknown, but didn't quite get there. He is somebody who is hungry for it. He stays working, he stays busy. He picks the directors he wants to work with to get him to that goal, because I truly believe that is on his vision board. And he will not rest until he wins an Oscar for Best Actor. Year after year, for the last three or four years now, he has given his best effort to do that, which I feel like at some point he thought, maybe I'll just do a fun movie where I can kind of be myself. Which he did do. Don't look up a few years ago, but that was more of a quick cameo. He is not at that point yet where he's just Gonna do a movie for fun if he is going to invest his time in it. Right now, I believe he is only gonna do it if it's gonna get him at least at minimum, an Oscar nomination. But I think with a movie like this, with just what I see so far from his performance in the trailer, he goes all in and he wants to take home that golden trophy to hang it over his bed, which he still looks really young to me. He's 29 years old, but to me, I just envision him still living in a college dorm room, sleeping on a mattress that's just laid out on the floor. Still has posters up on his wall with thumbtacks, but probably he lives in a really nice house. I think allegedly he's still dating Kylie Jenner, even though there was rumors about them breaking up, them not being able to spend time together because of how busy he's been filming all of his movies. He's working on Dune right now. So I truly believe he will not rest until he is up there on that stage delivering his speech, crying into the camera, saying, I can't believe it. I finally won an Oscar. But out of everything in this trailer, I'm still the most excited to see Tyler, the creator. And hopefully that will lead him to doing more movies. And eventually, maybe he is somebody that is on my list as a dream. Interview could end up on this podcast. But again, Marty supreme comes out in theaters Christmas Day 2025.

So if you ever think, man, what did Mike think about weapons? What did Mike think about Fantastic Four? I know some movies come out way later on streaming. Like you can watch Superman at home. Now, it's not available for free yet on Max, but you can rent it at home. So if now you're checking out some of these movies that I reviewed maybe a month ago, two months ago, you can go there. You can check out my Superman review all over@YouTube.com mikedistro or you can always find the link in the episode notes of this podcast, so you can just click it, hit subscribe. So you get brand new episodes every single Monday. And this week's listener shout out goes to Invincible5009. Hundred 62 who left a comment on my weapons review and said, I absolutely love the movie. I am not a fan of the horror comedy genre, but this one has the LOL moments at the right time. The scare factor in this one is 4 out of 5. It also more deeply gave a commentary on how we enable people and entities to control our lives a must see. I appreciate that Invincible 5962 I too was raving so much about weapons last week to the point that I thought maybe I raved about it too much because people are gonna go see it now and be like man, this is so overhyped. But I highly recommend it even if you're not the biggest fan of horror because I do believe it leans more on the thriller side. I think though in the marketing to sell that movie as a horror movie is probably more exciting and the way to go. But like Invincible said here in this comment, I think there is a much deeper message there. I think Zach Kreger put a lot of his own real life experiences into this story, into these characters. So like any good horror movie, there's way more to dig into than just the scary things that that pop out and scare you. So appreciate that comment. Thank you for being subscribed over on YouTube and thank you right now for listening. And until next time, go out and watch good movies and I will talk to you later.
