That's true. I mean,
00:11
you know, you know,
00:12
my ass is going to show up brother because,
00:14
you know, I'm intrigued,
00:16
those were two classics.
00:17
But is it really necessary to make remakes of these?
00:21
And, and I hate,
00:22
I hate when they do a new cast completely,
00:25
you know, when they do remakes and they completely like,
00:28
do a new cast.
00:29
I hate that shit.
00:30
You know what I hate more though when like they remake,
00:33
they get a whole new cast.
00:34
But the old guy actually used to play the characters in the
00:37
movie somehow. Like,
00:39
do you see he's there?
00:40
It's like, bro,
00:40
fucking leave him out of it,
00:42
don't. But it's just like,
00:43
oh, like he's a car wash guy now.
00:44
It's like, you know,
00:45
like, and it's kind of like,
00:47
oh my God, that was the original.
00:48
But it's like, who gives a fuck?
00:49
And you know what?
00:51
So it's kind of funny because like you said,
00:53
they know we're gonna show up but there's some movies that need
00:55
a remake that we,
00:56
we're dying for more of the story and there's some that we
00:59
are ok with like,
01:01
let's see, how many more,
01:02
how many toy stories do we have?
01:03
How many more Toy Story do we need?
01:05
There's so many stories.
01:06
It's a collection of stories at this point.
01:08
It's been, yes,
01:10
I college, he has kids.
01:11
Not probably like, bro,
01:12

01:13
you know, we looking at like cemetery plots,
01:15
like Toy Story 30.
01:17
It's like, bro,
01:18
he's getting older and he keeps going back to that story.
01:21
And then what else?
01:22
Jurassic Park? It's now Jurassic world.
01:25
What's next sister Jurassic Universe,
01:27
Jurassic Universe, Jurassic,
01:29
I don't know. Let's see,
01:31
what movies do we need to remake up?
01:33
I feel like we're in need of some that the story needed
01:36
We want more.
01:36
Which one do you think?
01:38
I feel like we need more rush hour?
01:40
It's been a minute,
01:41
Jackie Chan and Chris Sucker.
01:42
Like we need that comedy back like that dynamic duo and then
01:45
look fast and The Furious.
01:47
I know we're like 11 in but we need the OG like
01:50
I'm down for more fast and the Furious but make it like
01:52
about the racing. I like I gotta stop you there,
01:55
man. I'm fucking done with that and they went too far
01:58
It's fucking ridiculous at this point.
02:00
I'm just like, dude,
02:01
fucking cannons and shit.
02:03
I'm like get out of here.
02:04
I miss the OG when it was realistic but one movie that
02:10
I would like to see a remake of or just a sequel
02:14
is The Hangover. I fucking love hangover movies.
02:16
I need it. I need it.
02:18
The hangover is, yeah,
02:20
that one but fast and The Furious No,
02:26
but like one of the OG is like,
02:27
don't touch this movie that we all have one.
02:29
It's like the mask.
02:31
Don't fuck with the mask guys like it's done that shit.
02:36

02:39
