Hey friends, welcome to a bite
of On today's episode, we're
2
00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:06,320
talking about The Conjuring, 1-2
and three.
3
00:00:13,230 --> 00:00:16,149
That's right friends, we are
starting spooky season early.
4
00:00:16,350 --> 00:00:19,110
Although I feel like when
Starbucks releases pumpkin spice
5
00:00:19,110 --> 00:00:21,550
latte, it's officially fallen
spooky season.
6
00:00:21,950 --> 00:00:24,670
Whatever the 80° today begs to
differ.
7
00:00:25,310 --> 00:00:27,350
Very true.
Yeah, very true.
8
00:00:27,350 --> 00:00:29,350
I'm excited to revisit The
Conjuring movies.
9
00:00:29,390 --> 00:00:33,030
We've had The Conjuring in our
lives since what, 2010?
10
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:38,280
Been a while, and it's finally
ending with the 4th, the Last
11
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:39,840
rites.
That's right.
12
00:00:40,160 --> 00:00:43,680
Oh, James Juan, your universe
has expanded and now it's coming
13
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:46,960
to an end.
No, revisiting stuff is always
14
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,080
fun.
But before we summon the spirits
15
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:50,840
of The Conjuring, make sure
you're following us.
16
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:52,520
Make sure you're subscribed,
make sure you're leaving a
17
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:54,080
review, make sure you're leaving
a comment.
18
00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:56,440
Make sure you have all those
demons under your house.
19
00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,480
OK, spoiler alert, if you
haven't seen any of The
20
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:01,920
Conjuring, 1-2 and three, we're
not going to talk about the
21
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:06,760
extended universe most, but just
be warned that, you know, we
22
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:09,040
don't want to be haunted from
your spoilers.
23
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:10,880
I'm really trying.
Yeah, yeah, just.
24
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:12,520
You know what?
Let it happen.
25
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:16,920
When the ghosts come, they come.
So let us officially take a bite
26
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:20,160
of The Conjuring and The
Conjuring 2 Directed by James
27
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,240
Wan and The Conjuring.
The Devil Made Me Do It,
28
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:26,800
Directed by Michael Chavez.
The Perrins, Hodgkins and
29
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,920
Glatzels turn to Paranormal Team
Ed and Lorraine Warren when they
30
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:35,120
experience otherworldly demonic
possessions that are hell bent
31
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:39,760
on destroying their lives.
Based on the true stories.
32
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:45,760
Of Ed and Lorraine wore.
All right, so the first
33
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:49,200
conjuring came out in 2013, the
second one in 2016, and The
34
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,400
Conjuring the Devil Made me Do
it 2021.
35
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,520
When I said 2010, I think I was
thinking of Insidious, which is
36
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:56,360
also James Wan.
Well, that's kind of where it
37
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:57,400
started.
Patrick Wilson.
38
00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,200
Absolutely.
That's where that duo came to
39
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,160
be.
So as far as The Conjuring in
40
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,600
2013, did you see it in
theaters?
41
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:05,560
What do you remember from it?
Yes, yes.
42
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:09,199
It's really funny because I
think when we started a rewatch,
43
00:02:09,199 --> 00:02:10,800
I was like, oh, let me watch the
trailer.
44
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,800
I love watching trailers from
around this time period because
45
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:18,160
this was one of the last like
years or so where trailers told
46
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:22,000
you the entire movie and it was,
it was verging on like out of in
47
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:26,120
a world, but it still gave you 3
minutes of the entire plot.
48
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:29,640
And The Conjuring was like that.
So it's just, it was fun to go
49
00:02:29,640 --> 00:02:32,760
back to a movie from this time
period even though it's not that
50
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:34,280
long.
But movies are made differently
51
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,000
now.
I liked it a lot.
52
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:37,240
I remember seeing it in
theaters.
53
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,720
I've seen every Conjuring in
theaters except for The Devil
54
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:42,400
Made Me Do It, but the 4th one
we're going to see in theaters
55
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,440
so this is fun.
It will continue.
56
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:48,360
Yeah, James Wan did something
interesting with these and that
57
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,560
yes, they were scary, yes they
were dark, but they were
58
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:55,080
accessible to everybody.
And with the core being Ed and
59
00:02:55,080 --> 00:03:00,160
Lorraine, I think was just a
chemist or a recipe to really
60
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:03,480
for success.
Yeah, I, so my first run in with
61
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,600
The Conjuring was actually James
Wan was at New York Comic Con
62
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,560
the year before it actually
released.
63
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,680
And he was there to talk about
it.
64
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:13,920
And nobody really knew what it
was about what was going on.
65
00:03:13,920 --> 00:03:16,520
They just knew him really from
Insidious and his past works.
66
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:19,240
So I decided to sit on this big
thing with an interview with
67
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:20,960
him.
And then they showed a small
68
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,160
clip.
And the clip that they showed
69
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:30,040
was the the game, the clap and
hidden clap with the mom.
70
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,840
And of course, they ended it
right when she's at the top of
71
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,680
the stairs and the hands come
out from behind her and clap.
72
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,840
The entire crowd lost their
minds.
73
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:42,120
It just was like, I couldn't
wait to see it.
74
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,680
And then when I saw the movie,
absolutely didn't disappoint.
75
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:50,040
I think that what James Wan does
so well, so he was part of the
76
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:53,360
team that wrote one and two, he
also helped Storyboard 3.
77
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:58,600
And what he does so well is
create these families that we
78
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:02,640
care for, right?
And so the parent family and
79
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:06,040
their one of their five
daughters, you can't help but
80
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:07,760
care for them.
He does such a good job of
81
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:09,560
setting them up, setting up the
time period.
82
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,200
And then the warrants come in
and you love them too.
83
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:17,040
And so it's so interesting to
watch a horror movie, but to
84
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,160
truly care about all the
characters that are in them.
85
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:23,440
That's a good making of a, a
good storyteller to begin with.
86
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,040
What's really interesting about
The Conjuring movies, and there
87
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:27,640
are some movies that do this
right.
88
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:31,000
But what's we're fortunate
enough to have multiples of
89
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,480
these movies is you have Ed and
Lorraine and you have a family
90
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:36,520
and you have things that happen
and they come and try to help,
91
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,280
right?
It almost feels like a
92
00:04:38,280 --> 00:04:42,800
serialized movie or a serialized
show in a way of like you have
93
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,400
the family, you have the kids,
you have the Warrens.
94
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,280
So it's it's you know what to
expect, but you don't know
95
00:04:48,280 --> 00:04:50,800
what's going to happen.
So that's the fun part about it,
96
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,840
right?
And it's so rooted in real
97
00:04:52,840 --> 00:04:55,840
stories that it just gives you
that extra layer of like creep
98
00:04:55,840 --> 00:04:58,320
factor that I think works really
well.
99
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:02,040
One of the things that I really,
really, really appreciate from
100
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:05,000
The Conjuring and Insidious, I
feel like, you know, he
101
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,600
obviously did some interesting
things in both of them is that
102
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:12,400
the expectations of jump scares
were changed a little bit in The
103
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,160
Conjuring.
And specifically one that I
104
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:18,160
think about is in the room, in
the girls room when she's
105
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,160
opening up that armoire and you
think something's going to come
106
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,040
out of it.
There's just a few extra beats
107
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,880
after it where you're like, oh,
they messed with us.
108
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:29,040
But really the monsters on top
of the armoire.
109
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,240
So they play with those
expectations a lot in these this
110
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,640
franchise, and I love that so
much because you don't know
111
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:37,720
what's going to happen.
Yeah, I think another really
112
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,600
good example of that in the
first Kind Ring movie is when
113
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:44,360
Christine, Joey King's character
gets her leg pulled really hard
114
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,840
and she says to her older
sister, there's something behind
115
00:05:47,840 --> 00:05:51,440
the door, and you're expecting
to see something behind the
116
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,680
door.
But it almost makes it scarier
117
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:57,600
that we're not Privy to seeing
what Joey King's character sees.
118
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:01,360
I mean, we do get a big door
slam after that, which is so
119
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,480
scary, but what was there?
Yeah.
120
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:06,000
What did she see?
Yeah.
121
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:10,120
I, I, I really like it a lot.
I think the, it's, it's such a
122
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:11,880
vibe.
I hate using that word, but I
123
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:15,600
love using that word because I
think it describes things
124
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:17,600
perfectly.
When you can't really describe
125
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,640
something and he just sets such
a good atmosphere.
126
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:24,160
The whole team does, right?
I just love the feeling of, and
127
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:26,200
I'm putting this more in like
modern terms or what more
128
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,480
people, if you haven't seen The
Conjuring, it's like the
129
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:30,960
Haunting of Hill House.
Like you have the family unit
130
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:32,360
and they're haunted by things,
right?
131
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,680
That's very much like every
single installment of The
132
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,520
Conjuring.
And it's, it's a familial
133
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,400
feeling.
But I love that Ed and Lorraine
134
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:45,080
Warren are the center of this
because you get bits and pieces
135
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:46,880
of them.
You kind of see their history.
136
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:48,600
I can't remember which one it
was.
137
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,640
Was it the third one maybe where
you get a glimpse of the young
138
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:53,800
Ed and Lorraine?
A gazebo, Yes.
139
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,920
And that little tiny moment, I'm
like, fulfilled, you know?
140
00:06:58,120 --> 00:06:59,200
But it's so cool.
And I like that.
141
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:03,480
He centered it around these two
real figures, but gave them more
142
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,560
of a storyline and more of like
these are movie stars in a way.
143
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:07,440
Sure.
Yeah.
144
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,600
I, you know, there's something
to be said about the first two
145
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:15,320
Conjuring movies in particular
that truly unsettles me because
146
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:20,000
these families are trying to
have this home, this place where
147
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,360
they're supposed to be able to
feel safe, but in reality,
148
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,920
they're trapped there by, by the
spirits.
149
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:29,720
And they kind of the key to
unlocking that are Ed and
150
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,480
Lorraine, right?
They are these tried and true
151
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:36,560
experts.
And although they too are scared
152
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,160
of what's going on, they know
more about it.
153
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:42,640
And so they have the wherewithal
to take a step back and figure
154
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:47,440
out how to solve this issue.
And so they really are the
155
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,160
connection of the three films,
right?
156
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,120
And having them there and
visiting different families, it,
157
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:55,160
it makes all the films different
enough that it doesn't feel like
158
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,160
you're seeing the same thing
over and over again.
159
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,800
Well, they're really the the
core characters of it, right?
160
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,480
And it's really interesting when
you're watching these movies and
161
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:05,760
there's a good like 30 minutes
typically in the beginning half
162
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:07,840
of the movie where it's not
about them.
163
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,640
They come in and you know, when
they get settled into the
164
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:14,120
whatever haunted place or around
the person, shit's going to go
165
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,560
down, right?
It just gets way more like James
166
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:20,080
Wan where it's like creepy, but
like action Y and just like what
167
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:24,040
is happening.
And I like that because it it
168
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:27,960
doesn't really focus on them so
much to where you want more and
169
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:30,360
there's still mystery behind
them, but you love them
170
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,559
relentlessly, them.
And Judy, of course, Judy.
171
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,240
You know, it's, it's interesting
because after seeing the first
172
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:40,640
one, in my mind, the parents
were the main characters of the
173
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:42,440
film.
And then when the second one
174
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:47,280
came around, I, I realized, oh,
wait, they're while they are the
175
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:49,680
main characters of that film,
they're not the main characters
176
00:08:49,680 --> 00:08:52,640
of the franchise, right?
And it is Ed and Lorraine Warren
177
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:57,160
and the fact that it is based on
these real people that really
178
00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:59,520
went to these places and helped
these families.
179
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,280
You know, it makes you think a
lot, especially on this sort of
180
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:05,120
rewatch as a revisit and and
thinking about it for the
181
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:08,640
podcast, you take a step back
and you think, you know, what's
182
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:12,240
first of all, what parts are
added for the movie, right?
183
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:17,680
Get that?
But which parts are real and do
184
00:09:17,680 --> 00:09:20,600
you believe it?
Oh, no, I knew this question was
185
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,240
going to come.
I don't know.
186
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:25,640
You know, I'm always and forever
will be a skeptic.
187
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:28,200
I'm the type of person like I
need proof, you know, that's
188
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,640
just how I am growing a very
religious household.
189
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:35,040
It just made me more of like a
let me question this, you know,
190
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,800
but seeing stuff like this and
like in these movies, always the
191
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:42,720
credits it has like either audio
recordings or like actual images
192
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:44,640
of some of these cases.
It makes you think like
193
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:48,120
interesting.
Is there something?
194
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:51,120
And if there is something, who's
to say which part is what?
195
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,360
You know?
So it's it's scary to think
196
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,080
about.
Part of me feels like it's
197
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:59,160
comforting, thinking ish that
there's like something after.
198
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:02,360
But it's also not comforting
when it's like, is this what's
199
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,320
after?
If I die in my chair in the
200
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:09,240
corner, am I gonna be used as a
pawn for some creepy nun to
201
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,280
terrorize a family?
Yeah.
202
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:13,280
So it is scary.
I don't know.
203
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:15,280
I feel like you're a little more
spiritual than I am.
204
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:18,440
Yeah.
But does that spirituality also
205
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:21,640
go to like ghosts and stuff?
Well, yeah, it's, it's an
206
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:24,320
interesting journey.
I've started listening to a book
207
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:27,680
called The Demonologist, which
is about Ed and Lorraine Warren.
208
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:30,320
And it has a lot of just like
first hand accounts from them
209
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:31,680
and, and conversations with
them.
210
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:36,040
And one of the things that they
said today was that they said
211
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:40,760
today that I listened to today
was that really only you're only
212
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:44,080
trapped here if your spirit
feels like it doesn't.
213
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,880
It has unfinished business.
They're a place to go.
214
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:49,600
Yeah, they kind of touch on that
in the movies, right?
215
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,120
Like, I mean, specifically with
the older man and the second
216
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,600
one.
But it almost feels like some of
217
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,920
the stuff happens to the
families because they're either
218
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:01,080
like they've almost invited it
in unknowingly when they're like
219
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:03,160
in the second one, her husband
had left.
220
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,440
So she's very like depressed and
she's trying to do everything
221
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,080
for her family.
The first one, it's like they're
222
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:10,280
kind of like they can't leave
and they just walked into this
223
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,280
haunting, right?
And the third one's like that
224
00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:13,520
too.
So it's interesting to think of
225
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:16,440
that like the spirits can't
really go anywhere, but also
226
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:17,880
these people are stuck in the
place.
227
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:21,760
Well, part of their theory is
that if you are in a similar
228
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,800
state as the spirit, then it
will latch on to you.
229
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:28,200
So good for you.
You're like a little
230
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:30,680
demonologist over here.
Warrens Watch.
231
00:11:30,680 --> 00:11:33,720
Out, yes.
But so for me, I think the thing
232
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,960
that I struggle with most, it's
funny, I really do lean into it.
233
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:41,600
I do, you know, think that
ghosts and things like that are
234
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:43,400
real.
I think that there is some basis
235
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:47,360
to truth because my gosh, if
this is a hoax, they really went
236
00:11:47,560 --> 00:11:50,440
hard to try and do this, which
is like, I don't know, the way
237
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,880
they're painted in these movies,
it doesn't seem like they're
238
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:54,800
swindlers in any way.
Right.
239
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,480
I would be really interested to
look more into them, right,
240
00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,920
because I think we can
romanticize the Warrens,
241
00:11:59,920 --> 00:12:04,760
especially with Vera and Patrick
Wilson, you know, portraying
242
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,760
them because share those, too.
And we love them to death.
243
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:10,480
But yeah, I would be interested
because I think we had kind of
244
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:13,320
briefly talked about it.
Like, I mean, it didn't seem
245
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:16,080
like in the movies at least they
talked about payment in any way.
246
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,600
Like, how do they get paid?
Do they do it when they go do
247
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:21,320
their seminars and teach classes
and stuff like that?
248
00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:23,960
Or like, is there a secret?
Like, does the church pay them?
249
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:26,680
It was very interesting because
I feel like when money is
250
00:12:26,680 --> 00:12:30,960
exchanged, then we can be like,
interesting they're doing it for
251
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,040
a job and not because they want
to help.
252
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,360
Yeah.
Part of it though is that back
253
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,720
in the 60s and 70s you could
probably live on one part time
254
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:42,000
paycheck and be totally fine.
Well, the minimum wage hasn't
255
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:46,560
changed, so wow.
But I think my thing that I kind
256
00:12:46,560 --> 00:12:50,840
of struggle with most is that
there seems to have to be a
257
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:54,280
balance, right?
With the evil comes to good and
258
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:57,560
their version of good is
Catholicism, right?
259
00:12:57,560 --> 00:13:00,680
They use the Bible as a weapon.
They use a cross as a weapon.
260
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,440
And So what does that mean?
If you believe in one, does that
261
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,160
mean you have to believe in the
other?
262
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:08,520
At least for the Warrens, it
seems that way because that
263
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:12,600
truly was their shield.
Their weaponry against these
264
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:14,800
spirits was their faith in
Christianity.
265
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,920
Yeah.
I mean, yeah.
266
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:20,240
I mean, I think like this.
This is where it gets a little
267
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:24,600
like this loses me almost in
like the actual religious and
268
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:27,600
spiritual part.
To me, what I see that as like
269
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:29,080
totally fine.
Believe what you want to
270
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,360
believe.
I'm nowhere near a expert in any
271
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,520
in any of the stuff.
But to me it's like if this
272
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:37,600
stuff was to exist, right?
And say like there is bad and
273
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:39,400
good and there's some type of
balance or whatever.
274
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:41,320
I think like maybe that's what
it is.
275
00:13:41,680 --> 00:13:46,720
And we as humans just like
gender and age and time and all
276
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,400
of these things, we've made
social constructs around these
277
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:51,720
things.
So like, who's to say Whatever
278
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:55,800
light version there is that,
it's called Catholicism, right?
279
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,280
It's like there's just that
force and there's this force,
280
00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:01,080
right?
I read a lot of like high
281
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:04,080
fantasy and lot of like sci-fi
mixed with fantasy and a lot of
282
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:05,960
those things.
Sometimes when it comes to like
283
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:10,000
spirituality, I just read
Catabsis by RF Kwong.
284
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:15,320
And a lot of it is like all of
the religions exist and they all
285
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:19,160
can exist simultaneously at the
same time, but they're just
286
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:22,400
different things.
So I like to think that way of
287
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:24,120
of it.
And it's like, that's just the
288
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:25,920
protection that the Warrens use,
right?
289
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,520
I think it's interesting.
Yeah, I appreciate that view of
290
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:31,480
it.
I mean, there's a part of me
291
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:32,480
that's just like, well, that's
fine.
292
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,360
They can be, you know,
Christians or Catholic or or
293
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:37,680
whatever their their specific
faith is.
294
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:41,280
But are they homophobes?
That's that's what I need to
295
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,160
know.
That's what I need to know, yes.
296
00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:48,040
But I feel like they wouldn't
be, you know, there's no way
297
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:52,360
that Lorraine Laura Warren,
Lorraine Warren, I'm having a
298
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:54,840
hard time with her name right
now dressed like that.
299
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,120
And it wasn't for the gays.
Just a little bit, just a little
300
00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:59,600
bit.
Yet not one homosexual in any of
301
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:00,840
these movies.
I'm just saying.
302
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:02,680
I'm just saying.
That's not true.
303
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:06,120
I think in the third one, those
two girls, the one that killed
304
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:07,200
the other.
One, yeah, that's.
305
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:09,600
True, I think they were.
They were little nature
306
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:11,560
lesbians.
Yeah, nature lesbians.
307
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:13,440
Yeah, I think they were nature
lesbians, Boo.
308
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:16,920
That was sad, but as far as
Patrick Wilson and Vera
309
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:18,720
Farminger's portrayal of the
warrant?
310
00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:21,960
Movie, Yeah.
I think that I love them.
311
00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:25,640
It makes you I think that they
make you believe the love story.
312
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:27,880
They make you believe the
strength between the two
313
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,960
characters and the connection.
You know, I was just like
314
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,080
towards at the end of the third
one, you know, watching them
315
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:37,200
like two days, three days in a
row, However long it took us.
316
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:40,160
You realize how many times
they're just screaming each
317
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,680
other's names.
Yes, I wanted Ed and Lorraine
318
00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:45,280
count I feel.
Like their entire script, at
319
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:48,440
least four or five pages, is
like Ed Lorraine.
320
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,440
Yeah.
Just constantly, like, stop,
321
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:52,720
you're doing too much.
Yeah, yeah.
322
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,120
Especially the third one.
I feel like that's like, yes,
323
00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:58,240
they were both not great.
Their health was declining.
324
00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:02,200
Spirits were coming in it.
Was a lot the the more like
325
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:06,320
pompadour Ed's hair gets the
worst health.
326
00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:08,000
Lorraine's hair.
The third.
327
00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:11,040
One, it just went whoop.
Oh yeah, straight back old.
328
00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:13,920
Yeah.
That's the image we know of her.
329
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:16,200
Yes, yeah, exactly.
I like the is there like a
330
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:17,960
family?
Because we're going to rank
331
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:19,920
these right before we see the
4th one.
332
00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:21,680
We do have a review of the 4th 1
coming out.
333
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:24,760
We just wanted to like revisit
these before we got to the end
334
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:28,720
of them.
Is there a families story that
335
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,920
you particularly like?
Not necessarily movie, but like,
336
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:34,120
is there a family you're more
drawn to than the other?
337
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:37,440
I don't know if it's just
because I have such a soft spot
338
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:39,240
for the first movie.
I love it so much.
339
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:42,320
I've watched, like for me to
watch a horror movie over and
340
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,240
over and over again, it, it
means something, right?
341
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:48,600
So the parents are my family.
There's something about them
342
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:52,480
that I'm just so drawn to.
Just this middle class family
343
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,720
trying their hardest to start
over, to have the life that
344
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,880
they've always dreamed of.
And then, you know, fucking
345
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:02,240
Bathsheba takes over.
Literally walk into a house
346
00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:04,920
infested with ghosts.
OK.
347
00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:09,280
So Noah and I were having this
conversation, the Warrens
348
00:17:09,319 --> 00:17:12,640
greatest adversary doors.
Yes.
349
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:17,119
Apparently demons also hate
dogs.
350
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:21,200
Yes, well, we were talking so
with the families and just
351
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:23,040
sorry, no, no, no, no.
Yeah, the the families.
352
00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:26,359
I think the Hodges I'm a little
more drawn to, and it's mostly
353
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:30,320
because of the scene with
Patrick Wilson singing Elvis to
354
00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:31,840
them that just really touched
me.
355
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:35,520
And yeah, I was just like, it's
amazing.
356
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:39,880
But I just, I think like, that
was the most human.
357
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,400
I felt like some of the families
were, not to say the first one
358
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:44,400
wasn't, but to me, I was just
like, oh, OK.
359
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:47,920
Like I feel for this family.
But we were talking about like
360
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,680
the body count, right?
In these movies and the first
361
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:54,560
and second one, there's really
nobody that dies from the
362
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:58,120
families.
But Sadie dies in the first one.
363
00:17:58,120 --> 00:18:00,280
She's like the only casualty in
this.
364
00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:04,160
And in the second one, Brew,
what's his name?
365
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:06,640
Brutus maybe or something The
the Rottweiler from the
366
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:08,400
neighbors turns into the Crooked
Man.
367
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:10,440
Yeah.
But he comes back at the end,
368
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:11,880
which is good.
But I don't trust that.
369
00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:13,920
I think he's a crooked man.
He's real crooked.
370
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:16,360
Where'd the Crooked Man go back
to that?
371
00:18:16,360 --> 00:18:17,840
Dog in the dog.
He's a transformer.
372
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:21,560
Dog's heart, Yeah.
I don't understand why the demon
373
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:25,680
needed to kill.
Sadie because it gets that
374
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,440
reaction.
That's for the audience, right?
375
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:32,920
That's for us to hate
automatically put the adversary
376
00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:37,440
and its place, right?
In the Warren world, to destroy
377
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:40,120
that piece of the family, to
make them all depressed makes
378
00:18:40,120 --> 00:18:41,720
them all weaker.
Yeah.
379
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:42,760
Right.
Yeah.
380
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,040
It would make me weaker.
Yeah, that happened to me when I
381
00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:48,040
moved into a house 10 years ago.
My dog died.
382
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:48,960
Oh.
My God, you're haunted.
383
00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:51,560
I'm sure.
Let's not get into that now.
384
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:53,920
So talking about, so we've
talked about the families, we've
385
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:55,280
talked about the Warrens a
little bit, right?
386
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,800
And I particularly like this is
just a side note.
387
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:00,600
I particularly like the third
one.
388
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,280
And this is just going to go
into my ranking later because we
389
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:06,040
get a little more of the skeptic
view and we get a little more of
390
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:07,920
like the world view of the
Warrens.
391
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:11,000
And I really appreciated that
because I think the first two
392
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,160
paint them as like these
untouchable.
393
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:16,640
They're great.
And while that's cool, I like
394
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,800
having that little Gray area put
into there and that those
395
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:21,240
questions come.
Up, you know, something I was
396
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:23,960
surprised of is that I was just
do I wanted to see some like
397
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:25,960
interviews of them.
So I went on YouTube and I just
398
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:29,560
typed Ed and Lorraine Warren and
the first thing that like most
399
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:33,280
of the videos that showed up
were hoax fakes, you know, and
400
00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:36,520
so it was interesting to me that
on you like just in like general
401
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:39,480
on YouTube, the first thing
wasn't real life interviews.
402
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:41,680
It was actually people talking
about how they thought they were
403
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:43,160
fake.
Interesting.
404
00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:45,120
I mean, maybe that's just
because of the movies and stuff
405
00:19:45,120 --> 00:19:46,720
like that.
Like they just kind of like
406
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,680
that's what brought those
searches up.
407
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:51,360
Like, are they real?
Were they real?
408
00:19:51,360 --> 00:19:55,680
Well, maybe people need to have
faith and love them that it's.
409
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,320
Real so we've talked about the
families we talked about this
410
00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:03,080
the the unfortunate
circumstances of the pooches and
411
00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:07,520
the horns let's talk about the
ghosts the entities right the
412
00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:10,640
first one Annabelle makes an
appearance there's an Annabelle
413
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:13,560
spin off none makes an
appearance on the bath Bathsheba
414
00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:16,800
in the first one Valic in the
second one crooked man also in
415
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:22,040
the second one in the third one
oh is a witch right a witch that
416
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:23,760
brought.
A demon, right?
417
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:27,560
They call her the Occultist.
That's the characters.
418
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:29,000
What's her name?
Isabel.
419
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:30,880
The Occultist.
Oh, OK, cool.
420
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:33,080
Yeah.
I do feel like whenever I was
421
00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:35,400
trying to think of the names of
as like I know Janet because
422
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:37,640
they scream that name so much in
the second one, but I was like,
423
00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:39,480
what are the names of these
people?
424
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,320
I feel like they don't say them
at all.
425
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,040
It's like their last names that
they say, yeah, which I think is
426
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:45,440
interesting.
But I know the names of the
427
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:47,440
ghosts.
I know that for sure.
428
00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:53,000
Is there a ghost that you or
villain or entity that you liked
429
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:55,760
the most?
What is liked me?
430
00:20:56,120 --> 00:20:59,880
Like you were scared of that.
You liked the story of just just
431
00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:01,240
liked.
I think the one that I was
432
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:07,480
scared that I found the scariest
was the combo of old man Bill
433
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:10,520
and Valik.
So you're more like the twist of
434
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:12,320
it.
Yes, because what's interesting
435
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:17,400
about that is that you think
Bill is haunting them, but kind
436
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:20,840
of he's really asking for help.
Yeah, because Valek is using
437
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:21,200
him.
Yeah.
438
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:23,760
So he wants to leave.
He wants to move on.
439
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,160
Well, he could have used his
words a little better.
440
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:27,080
Just saying.
Yeah, I know.
441
00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,280
Why was it separated?
Was that Valek?
442
00:21:29,360 --> 00:21:31,000
That was probably Valek.
Valek was doing that.
443
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:32,160
Yeah, and that was his way to
get it.
444
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,080
But I'm just saying, like, he
could have been a little nicer
445
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:35,200
about it.
How about you?
446
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,440
I like the first ones only in
that like, I think it's really
447
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,160
interesting to have like this
woman that was scorned to put a
448
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:44,720
curse on the entire land and
then have just all of these like
449
00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:49,080
unfortunate deaths constantly
follow them.
450
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:51,040
So I thought it was an
interesting pattern that once
451
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:53,000
they connected, that they knew
how to break it.
452
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,880
I just love like a curse.
I love a curse and especially
453
00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:58,200
one that was like fuck all
y'all.
454
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:00,840
Well, I don't, I don't know if
we want to get into our
455
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:05,720
rankings, but I, I, well, it
doesn't have to be rankings
456
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:11,200
necessarily, but I will say that
as the movies went on, they felt
457
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:16,320
less like familial stories and
more like Hollywood horror.
458
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:17,760
Films.
I get what you mean.
459
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,320
Yeah, the the third one in
particular I feel like is very
460
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:24,360
like supernatural in like a
fantasy way.
461
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:28,240
And more like the Warrens are
like ghost detectives and they
462
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,520
have to crack the case.
And it looks more like they have
463
00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:33,720
like supernatural powers as
opposed to like, which is fine.
464
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,720
I think like as technology kind
of advanced when these movers
465
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,040
are coming out, right?
We're like 12 years from the
466
00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:41,560
first one.
That's to be expected.
467
00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:43,920
But I get that feeling like
watching the first one and then
468
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,200
getting to the third one, I was
like, oh wow, they really
469
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:47,640
levelled up in their powers
here.
470
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,600
They levelled up in their powers
and also just like the way the
471
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:57,240
apparitions appeared, you know.
So I I think like as I love that
472
00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:00,680
beginning part and you know, and
talking about Bathsheba and that
473
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:04,560
whole thing, that one felt more
grounded to me, you know it.
474
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:08,840
Felt more ghost huntery, more
exorcismy than the other ones
475
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:10,200
and.
I think there's something to be
476
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:15,480
said about still being scared
but seeing less, right?
477
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:19,520
Isn't it so scary when the hide
and clap scene happens and we
478
00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:23,000
only see the hands?
Isn't it so scary when the I
479
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,240
think it's Nancy gets ripped up
by her hair and thrown her
480
00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:28,120
around the room, but we don't
see anything else?
481
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:30,760
It's so scary when all the
pictures come flying off the
482
00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,240
walls, right?
But you don't see anything
483
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:34,720
really.
Yeah, the second one does that a
484
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:36,760
lot too.
Like when the daughters are
485
00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:39,400
first, like getting the mom into
the room and then the dresser
486
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:41,280
Rams against the door and closes
them in.
487
00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:42,760
It's like, yeah, they do that a
lot.
488
00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,200
And I feel like in the third one
they do that, but it's more of
489
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,480
like, I don't know, we got like
the zombie big dead guy from the
490
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:50,120
morgue.
So which is cool.
491
00:23:50,120 --> 00:23:52,440
I think it's great.
But I, I get what you're saying.
492
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:54,440
It's like it gets a little more
Hollywood.
493
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:56,240
Yeah.
As opposed to like kind of the
494
00:23:56,320 --> 00:24:00,360
the low budget anyway.
Even like in the in the second
495
00:24:00,360 --> 00:24:05,680
one is when we first see her
kind of like go back into sort
496
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,680
of a memory of a ghost or an
apparition.
497
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:10,680
Like we see that in the
Amityville right at the
498
00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:13,200
beginning, you know, she's
walking around cocking the
499
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:16,680
shotgun and.
I fucking love that so much.
500
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:18,200
I don't I I get what you're
saying.
501
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:22,000
I love it so much.
I the way they told things or
502
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,840
just doing those memories.
I'm like, this is just so
503
00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:27,560
freaking cool.
Like it's a better way than just
504
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:30,440
doing a flashback.
I like that a lot because like a
505
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:32,840
part of me is like, I didn't
mean to like kind of take that
506
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:37,520
for me, but like part of me is
feels like, is it actually what
507
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:38,920
they're showing us?
I feel like in the third one,
508
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:43,280
yes, but I feel like maybe we're
just seeing it because in the
509
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:46,040
second one, when she gets
Valic's name, when she writes it
510
00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:49,080
into the Bible, she's not
actually walking and doing all
511
00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:51,120
that stuff.
So it's almost like we're seeing
512
00:24:51,120 --> 00:24:53,200
it in her head.
But in the third one, it's very
513
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:55,000
much like she's in it well.
Right.
514
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:57,600
And that one scene that you
mentioned of the two girls in
515
00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:02,040
the forest, like she becomes the
girl, she stabs the other girl,
516
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:05,520
she runs to the Cliff, you know.
So she, I mean, maybe there's
517
00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:08,800
something to be said of, of as
the movies go on, as time goes
518
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:11,120
on, she becomes more in tune
with her powers.
519
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:14,800
She becomes more powerful and
they become more part of her
520
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:16,800
real entity.
I have, yeah.
521
00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:18,880
I have a thought about that.
When we get to like what we
522
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:22,480
expect from last rites, because
it seems like it's hurting her
523
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,040
quite a bit the more and more
she does it and the more intense
524
00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:28,680
it gets.
But to kind of get to.
525
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:35,280
So the what do we got?
We got Annabelle the Nun, La La
526
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:38,680
Rona and is that it?
Is that like the spin offs we
527
00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:41,000
got from The Conjuring?
Because there's there's three
528
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,800
Annabelle, 2 nuns and 1 La
Aurora.
529
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:48,640
I saw the second Annabelle
before I saw the first one, and
530
00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,560
the first one I didn't like as
much as I like the second one.
531
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:54,400
What's the third one?
Annabelle comes home.
532
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:57,240
I didn't even know it existed
until like 10 minutes before we
533
00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,560
started recording.
And I've only seen the first
534
00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:01,880
nun, not the second nun.
Yeah, I've only seen the first
535
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:03,080
nun too.
I didn't really.
536
00:26:03,360 --> 00:26:06,400
None of your business, yeah.
Yeah, the nun I didn't really
537
00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:09,000
care too much about.
I thought it was fine.
538
00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:13,760
I liked the the valic part of it
over, you know that I like I
539
00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:17,360
like The Conjuring ones.
The the spin offs feel like spin
540
00:26:17,360 --> 00:26:19,840
offs in a way.
And I think that the conjurings
541
00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:23,960
are great.
So standout moments.
542
00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:28,720
I feel like each conjuring movie
and I'm trying I I want your
543
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:32,760
input on this, obviously, but
the first one, there's like a
544
00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:35,520
standout moment like James Wan
likes to have like a moment that
545
00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:37,800
you think about in the movie.
And I feel like the first one is
546
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:41,040
when little girls getting thrown
around by her hair, right?
547
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:44,360
That's like a moment's a big
like stunt scene right in the
548
00:26:44,360 --> 00:26:47,080
second one.
What would you say is like the
549
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:51,640
standout moment for that one?
Is it when she's getting kind of
550
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:54,880
like through the wall going into
the room and stuff like that,
551
00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:57,000
that's where?
Or is it the Crooked man?
552
00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:00,800
See, I personally, for me, it's
when she's going through the
553
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:02,640
wall, when he brings her into
that room.
554
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:04,200
I think it's the Crooked Man for
me.
555
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:06,800
See, so the thing for me with
the Crooked Man, that's where
556
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:11,320
they lose me in this one.
That is too fantastical for me
557
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:13,520
for The Conjuring universe.
I thought it was so cool.
558
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:16,760
Why would the dog transform into
the crooked man?
559
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:19,600
The crooked man you know is
chasing them around like that
560
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:23,920
feels less The Conjuring to me
personally got you.
561
00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,120
But for why is it a standout
moment for you?
562
00:27:26,120 --> 00:27:27,760
Why is?
That it's not necessarily a
563
00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:29,880
standout moment.
I'm I'm more talking like
564
00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:33,240
there's moments that James Wan
creates in these movies where
565
00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:37,200
it's like that's like the kind
of like intense moment or like
566
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:40,640
the the creative way they
decided to do this scene, right?
567
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,040
It's like throwing the girl
around by her hair and it's like
568
00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,200
crazy.
The crooked man with the going
569
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:47,280
through the ceiling coming in
and then coming back out.
570
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:49,840
Very cool.
And I can't really pinpoint one
571
00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:52,800
for the third one, like I don't,
I'm not too sure if it has it.
572
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:56,280
Is it the morgue scene with the
the guy or is it the second time
573
00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:59,240
the guy shows up in their house?
Because I feel like that's the
574
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:03,000
big like intense, kind of like
heavy effects moment, right?
575
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:07,280
It's funny, I and and it just
seems so early.
576
00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:10,120
I well, I guess it's not the
heavy effects moment, right?
577
00:28:10,120 --> 00:28:14,440
Just the standout scene for me
is when Arnie murders the guy
578
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,360
and then is walking down the
street and he says I think I
579
00:28:17,360 --> 00:28:18,920
hurt someone.
He's covered in blood.
580
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,560
So not to confuse them.
So let's like, let's do, let's
581
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:24,000
do the standout moments here.
What is the standout moment for
582
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:28,560
you in the first one?
Standout moment in the first one
583
00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:32,080
is probably yeah, I think the
hair.
584
00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:38,200
The hair moment for sure.
Or the moment when Beth Sheba is
585
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:40,800
on top of the Bureau and jumps
on top of her.
586
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:44,000
Gary Yeah, yeah, I agree.
I think the moment for me is
587
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:49,120
when the mom is on the in the
chair and has the the tarp over
588
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:50,640
her and then she flips upside
down.
589
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:51,920
Yeah.
Oh I love.
590
00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:55,720
That, I mean, we all of course,
just need to point out that it's
591
00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:58,080
Lily Taylor who plays Carolyn
Perrin.
592
00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:01,000
Amazing.
Come on, it's cast in the first
593
00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:02,000
one.
Oh God.
594
00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:04,320
Yeah, whenever.
It's like it opens up a little
595
00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:05,960
bit and you see the face of
Bathsheba.
596
00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:09,080
Oh, it's so good.
She's like very good.
597
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:13,080
Second one Crooked man for me.
I I think the Crooked Man and I
598
00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:16,240
guess it's when she gets Jana
gets pulled through the floor,
599
00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:18,640
which is really cool because
like Bill, he kind of like Yanks
600
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:20,840
her from the rope.
I was like, this is so cool.
601
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:27,160
Yeah, I like that one a lot.
And the third one, oh, I like
602
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:30,520
when I like when Ed is fully
possessed and going after
603
00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:32,840
Lorraine.
I that was very intense.
604
00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,760
I knew it was going to be fine,
but that was intense for.
605
00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:40,320
Me I I did feel like the third
one hit a little too close to
606
00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:43,880
home when he had a heart attack
and needed a stent.
607
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,880
Yeah, I it was actually kind of
hard to watch the third one in a
608
00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:50,360
way.
One, because of that, because
609
00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:52,960
it's like too real.
But also it was just like, man,
610
00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:55,000
Ed is like not doing well.
Yeah.
611
00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:56,680
And I was just like, he's so
sweaty.
612
00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:59,920
He keeps forgetting his pills.
Like can we chill?
613
00:29:59,920 --> 00:30:02,000
Out again, mad as pills.
Yeah, yeah.
614
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:06,640
I actually really enjoyed the
part when they discovered that
615
00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:10,480
she put one of the Talisman in
the vase.
616
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,400
Very cool, very cool.
I love their investigative parts
617
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:18,080
to it.
OK, so let's talk about what we
618
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:21,040
want from Last Rites and then
move on to our rankings of the
619
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:24,000
first three, and then we will do
our final rankings of the entire
620
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:28,520
Conjuring run.
So I have to be honest in saying
621
00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:31,080
that I have no idea what Last
Rites is about.
622
00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:33,080
Me either, I haven't watched a
single trailer.
623
00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:36,000
Me either.
OK, So what I want from it.
624
00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:38,480
We're just going to make stuff
up, OK?
625
00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:40,880
Love it is.
I wanted to feel more like the
626
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:42,160
first one.
Yeah.
627
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:44,440
And James Wan is coming back to
direct, right?
628
00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:49,240
I believe so.
It might be Chavez again.
629
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:50,680
No.
OK.
630
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:53,880
Keep talking Outlook.
So that's, that's one of the
631
00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:55,000
things that I want from it,
right.
632
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,120
So obviously we're going to see
them getting older.
633
00:30:57,120 --> 00:31:00,640
It seems that Oh, I do remember
seeing a trailer now.
634
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:02,000
Travis is doing it.
Interesting.
635
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:05,440
Where Judy, their daughter, who
unfortunately I'm a little
636
00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:08,000
bummed about, is not being
played by the same actor.
637
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:10,760
That same actor played Judy in
the first three.
638
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:12,760
Maybe they wanted someone a
little older because it seems
639
00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:14,320
like she might be getting
married.
640
00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:16,440
She's like going, you know,
she's trying out wedding
641
00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:20,560
dresses.
But, you know, or maybe this one
642
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:23,440
is going to center more on the
Warrens themself.
643
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:29,400
I we did watch something that
was like it was Vera and Patrick
644
00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:32,320
and they were talking about just
ending it right and what it
645
00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:34,400
meant to do with this whole
thing together and everything
646
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:36,520
like that.
And it does feel that way.
647
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:39,680
It does feel like this is like
their movie and this is their
648
00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:43,160
story and it's like the thing
that stopped it for them, the
649
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:46,000
Warrens, like this is their last
case or something like that.
650
00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:50,080
It seems like it's going to be
very personal and I'm not
651
00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:52,960
looking forward to that.
Like it does make me sad.
652
00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:56,040
Like I don't want one of them to
die.
653
00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:59,280
It's like we haven't gotten any
like real deaths like that of
654
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:02,680
our main cast or our families
and stuff like that in the in
655
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:04,960
the movies.
And it's like to have like Ed
656
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:07,240
die.
It's just, Oh no, I don't want
657
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:09,280
that.
Maybe they'll be like a flash
658
00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:13,120
forward at the end and it's just
her by herself in their home in
659
00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:14,840
that room.
OK.
660
00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,160
With all their stuff and
Annabelle hanging out.
661
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:18,800
I don't like that.
Yeah.
662
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:21,840
I would be curious to see if
it's going to be what case,
663
00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:24,280
because usually they do like a
real life case that they did.
664
00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:27,040
Is it going to be a real case
with them or is it going to be
665
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:29,640
we're going to see a real case
and then it goes back to them?
666
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:31,680
I'm really interested in that.
Last Rites.
667
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:35,400
It does seem very exorcismy,
which obviously there's a lot,
668
00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:38,000
but it seems heavy on the
exorcism and I think.
669
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:39,080
There's also something to be
said.
670
00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:44,000
If you look at the three films
that we've had already, we more
671
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:47,320
and more of it involves the
Warrens themselves, right?
672
00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:49,800
So it's not only are the
warrants helping the other
673
00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:52,400
family, but by helping the other
family, they're inviting the
674
00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:54,760
demonic presence onto their
family and their home.
675
00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:57,480
And as the three films have gone
on, it's gotten worse and worse,
676
00:32:57,480 --> 00:32:59,600
so it seems like.
Well, they keep stuff in that
677
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:01,960
room full of demonic objects.
Come on.
678
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,600
How often does the priest come
by to bless it?
679
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,360
Well, he said every month.
I do every two weeks.
680
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:09,640
Yeah, he got full time,
absolutely.
681
00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:10,800
So you just have a priest
outside?
682
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:11,920
Yeah.
Thank you.
683
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:14,880
For sure.
And it's one of these kind of
684
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,000
funny is like, they're always
like, we need to get him to the
685
00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:18,520
church.
And Lorraine's always like, we
686
00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:22,080
can't do it now, Ed.
Just get ordained already or
687
00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:22,600
become a.
Priest.
688
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:24,600
Or just have a priest on your
team.
689
00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:27,480
Right, well, they did bring in
that new priest in the third
690
00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:30,240
one, and he seemed very scared,
but he did a decent job.
691
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:34,240
The third one.
Yeah, OK, let's rank them right.
692
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:36,360
Give me your rankings for the
first 3.
693
00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:40,560
My ranking I think is very
obvious. 123. 123, got it.
694
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:45,520
Yep.
Mine's 132 what 132?
695
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:50,200
I'm so surprised.
I just, I, I know that the third
696
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:52,200
one, it just has that witchy
vibe.
697
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:56,880
I love witches, I love curses.
It's just, I don't know, I mean,
698
00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:59,960
if I'm being honest, I feel like
it's 1-2 and three are kind of
699
00:33:59,960 --> 00:34:01,920
very, very close and I can put
them together.
700
00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:05,960
But what puts it over, I think
is just like, I don't know, I
701
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:10,280
think it is a little more creepy
and I like knowing more about
702
00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:13,080
the Warrens outside of this
little bubble that they created.
703
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:17,320
So you have to go 1/3 and two.
I don't know if that's like a
704
00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:20,880
hot take or controversial, but.
Maybe I'm wrong, maybe people
705
00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:22,600
like.
You're not wrong, it's your
706
00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:24,400
opinion, no.
But I just feel like, okay,
707
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:27,280
maybe mines controversial, maybe
people think the first one is
708
00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:28,719
too simple, but I don't think so
anything.
709
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:31,280
I think everybody likes the
first one so good.
710
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:33,960
One thing that I do know about
The Conjuring is anybody that
711
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:37,320
I've heard talk about The
Conjuring has always liked the
712
00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:39,760
first one at least.
I don't think the conversation
713
00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:42,239
ever goes past that, but
everybody that I've come into
714
00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:44,840
contact with that has seen it.
Let us know in the comments.
715
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:47,000
Like do you like The Conjuring?
It'd be weird if you got this
716
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:49,520
far in this episode and you
didn't like The Conjuring, but
717
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:54,600
as at least like the first one.
So at least it's a unifier.
718
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:57,040
Absolutely.
You know, I'm excited for the
719
00:34:57,040 --> 00:34:58,080
4th one.
Me too.
720
00:34:58,080 --> 00:34:59,000
Yeah.
And I'm gonna see if our
721
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:00,360
rankings are gonna change at
all.
722
00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:03,080
We're gonna get 2 James Wands
and two Chavez's.
723
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:07,080
All right, well, we are all
prepared to go into last rites.
724
00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:10,520
We've done our due diligence in
watching the first 3 again.
725
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:14,920
Yeah, can't wait.
So let us know what you think of
726
00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:18,560
The Conjuring universe, If we
should check out the last
727
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,320
Annabelle and the second nun.
Are we missing out?
728
00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:25,160
Yeah, Are they worth it?
All right, until next time.
729
00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:25,760
Bye.
