Hello, Queen Lisa. Bart, what are you doing in my room? Lisa, certain differences, rivalries, if you will, have come up between us. At first I thought we could talk it over like civilized people, but instead, I just ripped the head off, Mr. Honey Bunny. Bart, that was your cherished childhood toy. Mr. Honey Bunny! Mwah! Mwah! Mwah! Mwah! Mwah! Mwah! Quiet down, Bart! Bart, just get out of here. Hey, it's a free country. You get out. That makes sense. I know you are, but what am I?  Okay, but on my way, I'm going to be doing this. If you get hit, it's your own fault. Okay, then I'm going to start kicking air like this. And if any part of you should feel that air, it's your own fault. Mwah! Mwah! Mwah! Mwah! I better go check that out.


I'm Roger Branch, a native of Trinidad and Tobago. I'm also a doctoral candidate in the field of international psychology. I am the director of forensic psychological services and the service partner for Converse. My company has been instrumental in designing law enforcement screening protocols for several of the Caribbean islands and we have been in business for approximately 20 years. The first thing that comes to mind with the benefits of eye-detect is the cost factor. With the eye-detect now they have an opportunity to screen a large amount of people, a short amount of time at a cost-effective manner. This has been the key feature and benefit of the product. From my training as a doctoral candidate and my understanding of the theory behind the eye-detect and the validated studies that have been done on the product, this system would be the point where we would see a change in the field of polygraph testing itself and even in the mindset of of photographers around the world once they have embraced the change that is coming in this profession of credibility assessment.


r greatness. And then Last Jedi comes out, cuts the fan base basically in half, pisses half of them off, but the half that they have seemed to really like it. So instead of making those people happy, he pisses off the other 50% and now no one. I think that there's for every one person that hates, I'm sorry, for every 1,000 people that dislike the new trilogy, there's maybe one person that likes it. And that's maybe even underselling the hate for the new trilogy. Well, there's a classic quote and it's never been more true than the new trilogy, which is, nobody hates Star Wars more than Star Wars fans. Yeah, that's fair. Although I think that that's, I mean, I think the phrase had more meaning when it came out, but now what's happening with movies is everything's become a massive property. So you could say that for everything. Nobody hates Fast and the Furious more than Fast and the Furious fans. They're on 10 of these now. That's a terrible example because I feel like Fast and Furious fans like myself. Yeah, you're right.  I swear to God, they're actually really good now. They're over the top. They're arcade games. Yeah, but yeah, that's true. Nobody hates Marvel more than Marvel fans. DCEU. I mean, if you keep going with anything long enough, you're going to become the villain. The Dark Knight kind of has a quote like that. Live long enough to do that. Let's move on to our final one. This is easy because we've already talked about it and everybody who knows me Yes.  What is your favorite? This was for reference for those who have stuck around with us for the full two hours here. This is my number seven pick. You're number one. What's your favorite scene in Jurassic Park? I think that there hasn't been a scene in a movie done better than that bridge section where the T-Rex is slamming down on the glass and those kids are underneath of it. You got Malcolm and the other, you got Malcolm with the flare trying to get his attention, but he doesn't know what he's doing. You got the lawyer in the bathroom, Cabana who gets taken out. It's so freaking intense. You have the water going up and down. The build that Spielberg learned and honed from Jaws is on full display in this section. A close number two is that kitchen scene with those two raptors. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ah, ah. I feel like there's this douchey smile in the side of the window. Yeah, yeah. Well, the raptor is a little cocky. He knows he's the evolutionary advantage. It's so intense and you got that brilliant fake-out shot where the raptors running right at the girl and she's like, ah, ah, ah, she's trying to pull it down, but it's her reflection. So he runs head on into the thing. What's that? I said, it's brilliant. It's such a good- It's so good. And even the Nedgery scene out with the, I forget the name of the type of dinosaur that's out there. That like, ah, ah, ah. Yeah, exactly.  That's it, we got dots in here. See? There's the other thing that I think puts Jurassic Park above Jaws, and I think we do both have it above Jaws, is unlike that movie, Spielberg sets up, especially in the first act, like the most majestic reverence for something, I think all of us as kids envisioned and fantasized about, which is actually seeing real live dinosaurs and he brought it to the fore in the best, most realistic way anyone had ever done by 1993. And I think still, It's holds up so well. I didn't see the Adam Driver movie 65, but I can't imagine they looked better than this, the dinosaurs in the house. I saw that movie, it's, as the kids say, mid. It's all right. It's not as bad as people said, but it's certainly not anything groundbreaking.  The dinosaurs there look like cartoons. And you have Owen, who's essentially at this point, the dinosaur whisper. He just puts his hands out at everything. And then they had Sam Neal doing it in the last one too. Oh my, they had the girl doing it, the clone girl. She's like, hey, this is working so bad. Anyway, no, Jurassic Park is, it's such a good pick for number one. I have another very good friend of mine that also his favorite all time movie. It's my number seven. It's the kind of thing. I've seen it probably, probably not enough time. Probably only seen it like seven or eight times, but for me, that's a lot. It's just when you ask people about movies, typically what comes to mind first is a big blockbuster that has withstood the test of time, something that pulls you in and draws your childhood out. And I think Jurassic Park is that movie for a lot of people. 1000%. Great film. And I'm glad it was a one, the movie I loved because I would judge you differently if it was something bad. That's fair. It's a good ice breaker as I'll always ask them. They don't always know, but early on and when I meet someone, I'll be like, yeah, what's your favorite movie? And in my head, I'm silently going, all right, well, that was a nine out of 10. All right, you passed.  Out cold, yeah, out cold. If they said that was my, they're from movie, I'm like, oh, okay. Cinematic Darling, out cold. Okay, that's cool. Speaking of cinematic darlings, this one. Quietly see myself out. I'm like, all right, we're not gonna have a lot in coming up. I love your number one pick, John, but it also just makes me sad, but I love it. It makes you sad because Michael J. Fox has been in critical focus since his 30 years? Yes. I just watched his documentary still. I would hugely recommend it.  Sure. And it's a really, really great documentary.  Did you see him on Curb Your Enthusiasm? That season? I did, I did it. Oh, it's so good. It's so good. Playing off his own disease was brilliant. Yeah. In the background here, I got the poster. I have a hoverboard signed by most of the cast and crew.  I have the sports almanac just out of frame up top, the license plate. I collect all my memory from this. I've seen this movie in the theaters a few different times. I've met the cast. I've done the thing every year where if you watch it right at like 8.36 p.m. on November 12th, the lightning will strike the clock tower at 10.04 and your clock and on the movie's clock. I am obsessed with this movie. I know it back to front. I've watched all the behind the scenes. I know all the trivia. I've listened to all the commentary tracks, all the podcasts about it. Robert Zemeckis is just an absolute master at making this movie work at the long shots, these long takes. I love what he does with blocking where he'll just set up a camera and he'll have the characters kind of move back and forth. He'll turn a wide shot into a close-up just by having them move in frame, but then he'll move the camera to make it another. So even though the camera never cuts, you get like four or five different setups. Spielberg does that really well. But, and I think more than anything, as a kid, I was so drawn to just the entire concept of time travel and going back in time and meeting your parents.  What would they be like?  And- Who were a smoke show who was trying to sleep with you? And that's something that I have evolved on over the years. When I first watched this and fell in love with it as a kid, we had gone to Universal Studios when I was like nine years old. I went on the ride without having seen the movie.  So we went to West Coast Video and rented, in the same week, we rented Jurassic Park Terminator back to the future and Jaws. And I think Star Wars. Oh my God. Because it was like all the rides that you get, or maybe not Star Wars, because that was Disney. But all the rides you see at Universal in like 1990, whatever, that we came back in that month, I went back and it was a formative week clearly because most of those movies were on our list tonight. Well, Star Wars wasn't Disney at the time when you- Right, right, right. But they did have the Star Tours at the original. Oh, that's right, yeah. One of the magic, one of those parts. Yeah.  And then as an adult, I appreciate more of the romantic elements and the stuff they're doing in the 50s. And yeah, when I was a kid, I definitely did not appreciate that Leia Thompson is an absolute Stone Cold Fox. Oh my God.  Is she always been this hot? Geez. I did not even notice. Did you ever play the tell-tale back to the- Yes, I did. Well, at least the first, I think there's like five. Did they ever finish it? I think they did. I've only played the first two episodes and I really liked it. Yeah, I did too. There were some puzzles that were like frustratingly difficult. That weren't like intuitive and you just kind of had to like trial and error. But the storytelling and the way they expanded the story and kind of gave you more background of the characters was awesome. And yeah, I love this movie. I didn't, you brought up the long takes, the long shots. Yeah, yeah. I watched this not that long ago with Connor. We watched the whole trilogy together. And I guess, I didn't even notice the long shots until this last rewatch. And I was really digging some of these shots that he was doing. But they're not like over the top, like 12 minute wonners, like you get an extraction. It's not like Birdman. Right, they're like between 30 seconds and two minutes where they're a little bit longer and there's entire scenes of this movie that are just a single shot. It's not like a long scene, but there's a great one in the third movie actually is when they're in Doc's workshop and they're trying to come up with, what's the best way to get the DeLorean up to 80? Well, we can't push it. We can't slide it. What if we could, well, I did that back, all right. We can't pull it. We can't slide it. What if we could push it? And that's when the train goes through the window right behind them. That entire scene, it's like a 90 second shot. It all takes place in one camera where it kind of like floats around the room and then ends with an actual train. I'm like, how did they time that? The timing on that. And then he does a lot of stuff like that in all three movies, but I love it. When I go back and watch some of these movies, that's something I've been picking up on more and just really digging on are some of the longer takes and some of the techniques they're using. I just watched Grease with the family as well. And there are a lot of longer takes in that movie that I never really appreciated before. I definitely, that's something you get on rewatches is you notice the craftsmanship and the sort of the technical tricks they're doing and the way they're blocking shots, the way they're framing and focusing and doing foreground, background. And yeah, Bob Zemeckis did a hell of a job with this one. I mean, obviously he went on to do Roger Rabbit and Castaway. Yes. He definitely had a good run. Forced gun. Not so much, but he had a good run. Contact, is it Death Becomes Her? Like he did a lot of really, really good film. He did Death Becomes, I didn't know he did Death Becomes Her. That's an interesting movie. Goldie Han and, is Bruce Wilson that? Yes. Who's the guy? Okay, it is Bruce Wilson. Goldie Han, Bruce Wilson, and I can't remember the other woman. There's a third player. Okay, yeah. My dad really liked that movie. We watched it several times. It's very funny. He probably had a thing for Goldie Han too. No, I'm sorry, not Susan Serendon, Meryl Streep. Okay, yes. Cause I remember the very defined cheekbones that she had in that film. Well, John, this was awesome. Guys, if you have any more super chats, now is the time. We're probably going to wrap this in a few minutes. We've been going for an hour and a half. Two and a half. Two and a half hours. Oh my God. John's not getting anything. John's not getting anything from this. He just gets to talk movies. He doesn't have a channel to even push anymore. Do you have anything? No, not really.  I have this delusional dream of one day getting the gold play button, but I still got 139,500 subscribers to go, not that I'm counting. Hey, I'm still trying to get to 100,000. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I've been doing this for over a decade now. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Slow and steady, I guess. Maybe you should just give up. It's probably not going to happen. I probably should just give up. Yeah. That's fine. It's probably. You gave me your best shot. I gave it my old college try. It didn't work. I have wasted my life. What am I doing? Is we're having existential crisis and breakdown on live on stream? I do, I do. A thousand percent. I think you should do a live stream where it's like the Mithril, Mithril gauntlet where every 60 seconds you review another film and you just. Just for Mithril members? That's not a bad idea. No, no, just from Superchats. For Superchats. I gotcha. The problem is I don't have like, I mean, we average 60 to, if we're lucky, 90 live streams. It's not like I have hundreds or thousands of people that are going to be like, oh, do this one, do this one. It'll be like, it'll be like my brother throwing 20 bucks out. I would maybe make it a dollar to incentivize people to do it more than once. There you go. There you go. All right, I blocked out the next three hours for Mithril chat is one that comes in. That's always the risk you have when you do something like that. I have been there a few times where I fully overestimate the sort of cache that my idea or my brilliance is going to have. And then it's like, just lands on a big loud sud. Like, oh, okay.  Well, I have a bit of egg on my face and I'm just going to quietly do this show again. I'm just going to hit that dusty trail. All right, nobody wanted to watch this. So that's fine. I'll never do another one again. Well, John, as always, it's fun to talk with you. Likewise. Great catching up. We're going to have to come up with a movie feud at some point. Clearly we've come up with a feel already that we know we can talk about at length. Unfortunately. I feel like the last Jedi will just be frustrating and the Avatar one I think would be a lively and fun discussion that won't be bogged down by just vicious trolls and this fan bases. I don't know if I could even sit through that movie again. That's the problem. Do it. I just don't like that movie at all. I remember being in the theater just miserable and I was super looking forward to it. Vinny with like a final leg on the stream comes in with a $5 powerful chat. Jurassic Park was my life as a kid. Still have all the toys. What does he say? The point job? The paint job on that Ford Explorer. Well the paint job on that Ford Explorer is Chef's Kiss and my imagination ran wild. Yeah, and now they sell those at dealerships. You can buy the Jurassic Park theme Jeep. That movie's so good on a lot of different levels. How about it from a merchandising standpoint? The fact that they made merch in the movie that you could also buy in the real world. Come on. Brilliant. They had a whole merch store in the movie. I was also a big fan because JP, my initials, so it was an easy buy for me. Easy breezy, beautiful. Okay, yeah, I think I'm gonna close down. We're at midnight. John doesn't need to be here any longer. John, this was awesome. We'll do it again. We'll talk, we'll chat. And guys, I'm gonna leave it there.  Well, it's been in the lower third the whole night. Check me out on Letterbox. I'm still pretty active over there. I watch a movie every single night and I review at least a few a week. I'm kind of a bit backlogged because I haven't updated it in a few weeks, but I will soon. And I just reviewed, what did I just review this week? A couple of new ones. Ooh, Apollo 11. That's in Dead Reckoning, Asteroid City, my thoughts on a bunch of submarine movies. Remember when that submersible exploded, imploded? Yeah, I remember that. Everybody was really sad. How can we forget? Everybody was really sad about the billionaires that died. It was only like two weeks ago. Anyway, I went on a good kick where I just watched submarine movies for like a week and I was watching all these James Cameron documentaries. Crimson Tide and the Hunt for an October. And I was just watching any movie that dealt with like deep sea exploration and I found some good stuff. So if you're inclined to watch some or read some reviews on any of that, check me out on Letterbox. That's where I'm active. Or you could subscribe to my YouTube channel which has been dormant. Which one? Movie Night or Jogwheel? Which one are you going with? Jogwheel, that's like the real movie. Movie Night's always just been like a little positive. Okay, subscribe to Jogwheel. Let's motivate John. You know, getting like 20 or 30 new subs and he can go, you know what? People care. I'm gonna come back and I'm gonna start doing some stuff again. And that would be awesome. I shall, I should. I mean, I got the setup. I mean, it's not like I forgot how to do it. I just ran out of time and motivation.  You could easily do one day a week, make it, you know, an hour live stream, edit it up and throw it out. I trust me. I've been talking to my wife about that for probably two years. I'm like, this week I'll do it. This is the hobby. You have the full-time job that's paying the bills. Right? Two actually. Two, so. Well, not two full-time jobs. Just do like one or two nights a week, just making an hour video, throwing on YouTube. I didn't want to. It's one of those things I just have to kind of get. But every time I'm like, you know what? I could go upstairs and turn on the lights on and film for a couple hours. Or I could get ice cream and watch a movie. It's always easier said and done. It's always easier just to not do the work. And when I no longer rely on it for an income, it was like, you know what?  It would be a very nice kind of boot off the chest, so to speak. But John, always a pleasure, dude. Guys, thank you for watching live and we will see you very soon. Take care. Bye.
