Hey, what's going on?

Everybody?

Welcome to a brand new mini episode for the Terrible Terror Podcast.

And we'll keep this as I don't know, as short as possible, as humanly possible.

I guess was terrible, terribly possible.

With everything we all know how I like to keep things short.

So a couple of well, there's one really big thing that happened, and well there's a couple of things that happened this week, and then I do want to talk about a movie that I just recently came back from.

So we've got a couple things.

Then of course, what the movie we're going to see for next week?

What we're doing.

So we're gonna start off, we don't we're gonna do this a little differently than normal.

Why don't we say that for different So because I'm gonna go into a lot of things spoilers and stuff, and if you just want to hear what the movie is, we're gonna go through that right now.

And then we're gonna talk about what I just saw.

And then I'm gonna talk a little bit about the death of Ozzy Osbourne.

So that's what we're doing for this little mini episode.

And I'm gonna play a little something at the end of the episode that I put together just as a little.

Musical tribute to Ozzy.

So it's up to you if you want to stick around for it, or if you want to just cut out after this, that's fine, don't worry about it.

At least try to stick it through for about five minutes or so so that you can hear the trailer for what we're gonna play for the next thing.

So I decided that, you know, tense, I did Slither and it was kind of a horror comedy.

I decided, well, there's probably some other ones that we could look at, maybe something a little different.

I started looking through all the different ones of what I wanted to do, and then I found out that something that I wanted to see in the theaters has recently hit HBO Max.

And so we're going to do a more recent movie once again, and it's going to be a first time watch for me.

And this is in the realm of odd horror comedies.

And yes, it does have Paul Rudding it, it does have Jenny Ortega in it.

And so the movie that we're going to take a look at, which was recently released on Max for this next episode is going to be death of a Unicorn?

Really, are you okay?

It kind of felt like it was showing me something.

I guess it feeling.

I don't think we're supposed to be here.

The Leopolds donated this entire nature preserve, and they care about a lot of things, not just pharmaceutical.

Fine, I will sit there and smile.

Sorry, what happened you walk from the airport or what?

It's perfect timing.

I need you to act like everything is fine.

Is there something in your car?

Species in this area are rare?

What exactly are you saying this is?

Though?

I think we know exactly what it is, horse like mammalia with some sort of protrusion growth.

It's a fucking unicorn.

I don't think I should be in in swim shorts for this moment.

I don't think that we're supposed to have this.

We need to study it.

Whatever it is.

It seems to be the cure for cancer cancer.

That that's the biggest one, an opportunity for greatness, for immortality.

I have a big alive that please just.

Listen to me.

We need to give the little one back.

Okay, bad things will happen.

There are two.

Beauty kills.

I don't do whatever I have need to take care of you.

Few retreat in the face of opportunity.

That horn was rather girthsome.

I'm picking up vibration.

Here's something we killed Bigfoot on the way home.

Man.

So I thought the movie looked interesting the very first time that I saw it, so I was interested in seeing the theaters, but around here it wasn't available in many places.

So we got Paul rud, Jenni Ortego, Will Poulter, and Tayloni in this movie.

And again, I don't know if it's going to be a fun movie, mediocre, maybe doesn't live up to its expectations.

I know that it's kind of polarizing for some people, so we'll have to see what exactly the movie ends up bringing out to us.

So I love watching these and again, this is an A twenty four movie, And for most of you that been listening to this for a while, I have a love hate relationship with A twenty four.

I do, overall, really enjoy A twenty four movies, but sometimes they do team to sniff their own farts, and some of those movies can be a little bit rough to get through, and some of them, they're not exactly what the trailers make them seem like.

So this is a dark comedy that consider it dark fantasy and monster horror.

So we'll have to see how this works out, how it plans out in the end.

Is it going to be a fun film, is it going to be a bad film, or is it going to be a fun bad film?

And this is brought to the.

People that brought you everything everywhere all at once, so I don't know if that is a good sign for some or is it a bad sign for some.

So we'll have to see what it is.

So it's available now.

It just got released I think about a week ago on HBO Max.

So if you have HBO Max, you can watch this for free.

Otherwise, it's available to rent on a bunch of streaming platforms.

If you want to rent it, it is available there, and I know I'll probably be watching on HBO Max.

So next thing is And there's going to be minor spoilers as I talk about this, because I just went and saw Fantastic for the first steps, and I've kind of decompressed a little bit after watching it.

And while I'm not doing like a full on blown out review or I'm putting it up on YouTube and doing those types of things, even though I've done it for superhero movies and everything like that, which you know, those ones, you know, at least for view count wise either hit or don't or miss the mark completely.

Some averybody doesn't want somebody that talks about horror to talk about other types of movies that are out there either, So it's kind of like, uh, you know, win lose situation whenever I do it.

But hey, this is what I'm using this part of the podcast to do.

And I'm still trying to figure out I really want to see Weapon and I want to actually see that on a Thursday rather than a Friday, so I see it early, and I'm trying to figure out exactly how it can move around because next week I'm gonna be going to go see nine Ish Nails on Wednesday on August, not next week, but the week it comes out on August sixth, and then that Friday, on August eighth, the day that it does fully come out in theaters, I'm gonna be seeing Weird Out.

So it's like, you know, i'd have to find a different time to see it, which would be the weekend, but I thought it might be fun to actually go and see it and try out a new theater around here that they call the lot.

In some places you may have an Alamo Draft House, and this seems to be like that type of theater.

But the thing is is that this has like sofas that you can sit and watch and you can get food.

So I'm like dinner and a movie.

That would be perfect, especially after seeing Nine Snails the night before and probably running myself a little ragged.

You know, then it won't be good to go out to a movie and.

Just kind of relax and you know, like a sofa and if nobody's sitting next me, just fucking lay down.

Hopefully not fall asleep during the movie or anything like that, but just enjoying some things out there.

So fantastic for the first steps.

So the big thing that a lot of people are going to do is they're going to compare the Superman.

I don't think that there is some compare that you can do, just in terms of it being a combook movie, and there's a big difference between the two of them.

I think esthetically, I really prefer this one.

I think that they.

Nailed the look if there isn't anything that like.

There's one thing that is amazing about it is that they put it in this nineteen fifties nineteen sixties sci fi world, a different version of Earth that they have out there, and it really feels like that type of world.

The sets look great, the costumes look great, not just on the you know, the Fantastic Four themselves, but the people in the world.

Herbie is fantastic.

I love the way Herbie looks and the way the Herbie look works and everything like that.

It's great.

The ships, the buildings, all that stuff, and it esthetically for everything else.

The way that Ben the Thing looks, the way that Galactus looks in this movie, the way that Silver Surfer, well technically shell Shala Ball, I believe is that the one that's there which ends up becoming Silver Surface's wife.

And this is a different universe.

And I know that some people out there are gonna be like, oh no, there isn't a female Silver Surfer, which there technically is.

This is a part of the com books and everything like that, and I think it works for what it is and what they're doing with this movie.

And there's I feel though that she's not as fleshed out as a lot of the other characters.

So what does it do right?

It does the Fantastic Four, the core group of characters extremely good.

I really like all the actors that portray all the different members of the Fantastic Four, and it really does kind of stress when it comes to the Fantastic Four that the four of them are better together than they are alone.

So almost every scene that they're in, it's always all four of them, and you rarely get to have unless it's with you know, Read and Sue Storm and their like relationship.

You've got a couple of Ben moments outside of the Fantastic Four, but you don't really get a whole lot of Johnny moments.

And and Johnny Storm is portrayed like he was by Chris Evans back in the old days of the original Fantastic Four movies that came out, which honestly, I like his portrayal of it.

But they do heavily focus on the womanizer aspect of Johnny Storm in those films compared to like it's discussed here, and there's like one scene where he goes so yeah, there's two things that I love, women and space, Like Sue me, you know, that type of thing that they have going on there, But it's still, you know, it's not like he's constantly chasing after women the entire time that he's here and trying to like hook up with every girl that he sees.

So it's again, I think that they nailed that.

I really like that Galactus is the giant galactus humber like, hulking, giant eater of worlds and say hunger and ultimately like he's such a weird like it's weird for me to say, like neutral bad guy, like he's a big cosmic threat is really what he is.

But at the same time, he also kind of stays out of things unless he's kind of forced into it, and he's been you know, backed off from Earth so many times that you can't even count on the back of your hand, right, But still he is a giant threat that's out there and people have just figured out ways how to deal with him, but you can never really defeat him.

And so the the like I said, the score is fantastic for this movie.

This is one of the best Marvel scores that they've ever done.

The music is absolutely fantastic and it's much more memorable than the score in Superman.

Now, the one thing that I will say is that unlike a lot of the Marvel movies out there, if you enjoy the Marvel movies, there's always a lot.

Of humor in them.

Here, there's funny things, but it's not meant to be humorous.

This place it relatively straight, and it's really about more of the emotional connections between the characters and what's going on with the story of the film.

And so when you look at it, if you're going to compare them to Superman, Superman is definitely a lot more lighthearted.

Superman feels like the original Superman movies, and it doesn't take itself too seriously.

It's just kind of having fun with it.

And I think that's just a James Gun thing, right when it comes to that, where this they're really trying to put a stamp on Fantastic Four, and it's almost like Marvel saying, look, everybody has tried to do an interpretation of our movies, has fucked this up, and we want to do them right and put some respect on the Fantastic Four.

And that's what they did.

They did a good job of it.

So you can go in there expecting a good story, good acting.

Well, not good story.

Sorry, good acting, good visuals and great music that's in it.

But and I said not good story.

The story is okay, And I think that's the part about it.

There are two main things that annoy me.

One it's a character that's in this movie that is focused on that is basically like Marvel Jesus, if you know anything about the Fantastic Four, you know about Franklin.

I don't like that character at all.

And I don't know why they're bringing this character into the MCU, to be honest with you, Like, he literally is the most powerful being in all of Marvel, and he's the son of Reed Richards and SEUs Storm, right, so all their cosmic DNA all gets mixed up and creates one giant cosmic being.

And the main focus and the threat of this is that Galactus wants him because he could take the place of Galactus to get rid of Galactus's insatiable hunger, right, so he can go off, I guess, and live a normal giant cosmic being's life that he really wants to and then allow this kid to now be the eater of world.

I guess that's kind of what it is, But I just kind of find the story in this movie like serviceable.

It's the start of the next phase of this Phase six that they're doing, which again just boggles my mind that this is the thirty seventh film in the fucking Marvel Cinematic universe that they're doing.

But we're getting into this and there is a spoiler like or a stinger at the end of the movie that includes a character that's coming up in some of the next movies that we're gonna have there and the very last stinger at the very end of the movie, the mid credit stinger or the end credit stinger, really doesn't have anything to do with the film, but it's really cool at the same time because it reminded me of my childhood because of something I used to watch when I was a kid, because I love the Fantastic Four.

I think I used to watch the Fantastic four cartoon, not the old I would watch the old Hanna Barbara one, but more or less the more like nineties one like that was the one I was waiting for besides Iron Man, whenever Iron Man would come out.

But this is one that seemed to be on a lot more than Ironman was So I just really love the characters and I really love the world, but I absolutely hate Franklin from the comics.

I just I do not like this character at all, and for him to be a focal point of this movie and then seemingly being a focal point for the MCU moving forward kind of sucks, to.

Be honest with you.

It just I don't know why we have to bring this character in there.

And so maybe that's part of it where I'm like, oh, the story kind of fails, but I feel like it never really reaches the heights of what it's.

Trying to do.

So it does these really great things, and it does these really cool scenes, and it really brims with emotion with the characters and does a great job of that.

But and even though there's this big, like galactic you know, threat that's out there, I just don't always feel it.

And I just don't when it's just like, oh, he's just coming to get the kid, and yeah, I get the you know, the mother father like relationship that's going on there with the first kid, and they don't want to give up the kid, you know, to Galactus.

And there's some comic bookie things that happen in this movie that just drive me crazy and make me laugh.

And there's some couple of scenes where I'm like, Okay, it's it's funny for the wrong reasons, Like I know.

This is supposed to be serious.

I know that this is supposed to be important, but it just makes me laugh in the way that it's being done.

So I think it's a solid I gave Superman a four out of five, and I think this, like Superman, like just edges this one out.

I think it's a good film.

I think that if you like mcu stuff, it's it's definitely the best Fantastic Four movie that's been made.

And I think you did.

And it's one of the occasions where I have to give it to half a point, so it gets a three point five Franklin's out of five.

I think that it it's good.

It is really good.

And if they just did a couple of that just tweaks with it, for me personally, it would be a four out of five.

It could even be a five out of five if the you know, you just get rid of Franklin altogether.

But hey, that's what they're doing, that's where they're going with it, So I recommend it.

You want to go out and see it.

You're thinking about saying it, you're not sure.

You're not a big superhero movie buff, maybe it's not for you.

But I do feel like it's a nice self contained movie.

They do a good job explaining their origin without having to show you all that shit again.

We just get a little recap of everything.

And it's cool that there's like old enemies from like them way back in the day, and that's where I think that it does a really good homage to the comics, and it's one of the best, if not the best representation of them in the comics that has been out there in media in general.

So last thing and the saddest thing, and I hate to leave on a sad thing for this, but you know, unfortunately we lost the Prince of Dark this week on Tuesday after everything that he did with the the beginning of the end where he did the whole thing with Black Sabbath, and I've been consuming that media a lot because, like I in the back of my mind, I'm like, this is why I wish I like flew well and would be able to go, you know, to an event like this, like if I could afford a plane ticket and the actual cost of the show.

I would have.

Loved him been there and seen the whole thing in person, like spend the whole day, and it went to a good cause, went to good charity.

Now again, there's always bad with the good, right, and Ozzy's done some stuff that isn't very good.

I mean, one of the probably the funniest stories that he's ever told is him being an asshole.

Is when you know, he was on tour and Sharon was with him, and then he brings a girl back to the hotel and he forgot because he was so fucking high out of his mind that you know, Sharon was with him on the tour and he brings the girl that he's going to sleep with back, you know, it's like okay.

And then there's also the drug field rage that he had at one point where he attacked Sharon and almost killed her and luckily she did the panic button.

So there's a couple of things that are terrible.

And then he got sober, and then since he's been sober, it's been you know, it's a different assie that you have there.

But it's hard to also discount what he's done for music, and from being a young kid that was influenced by the Beatles heavily, heavily influenced by the Beatles, to influencing generation after generation after generations of musicians giving a lot of my favorite bands a chance to actually have a showcase on a national stage.

You know, Tool was very you know, LA based and had some fans, but then they got put on an os Fest and what happens when they tour with Ozzie.

They start blowing up.

And I know that he that man or James Kens friends with his kids for a really long time and has you know, grown up with them as well.

And you have bands like Slipknot, you have bands like System of It Down.

You have all these different groups that have either been on ozvist or Ozzy's taken on tour with him.

That he just gave these opportunities.

And I was watching some there was a video of him where he went and watched a bunch of kids at like I think it was like a music academy or something, and they're all playing crazy train on like xylophones and drums and then like no guitars or anything like that, and he's sitting there with Kelly Osbourne and just soaking it in and then he just looks at them and he just tells them like how fantastic they are.

And you can tell that he's just like in awe in the way that the kids are interpreting the music and he's being honest with him and open, and one kid runs up to him and he's like, you know, I just want to tell you that you're one of my favorite musicians and I don't think I'm ever going to see you again, And without saying anything, he just bends over and gives the kid a giant hug.

You know, It's like there's a lot of really cool moments that he has created for a lot of people and a lot of fans, and I just it sucks like this is the one that, as of recent at least, with a lot of these deaths that are out there, this is the one that's kind of hurt the most in a long time.

And I don't know what it is about musicians and me, you know, them hurting me the most when it comes to death because celebrity deaths most people, you know, they they don't really mean anything to that person, right, I've never met the guy before, he doesn't.

You know, he's never been to a birthday party of mine, hung out, you know, just on a bad night, met me in a bar somewhere and we had a couple of drinks or anything like that.

Like he's not a part of my life.

I didn't go to his cookout or anything like that.

But his music has always been there for me.

And when when doing the little audio thing I'm gonna play for you in a moment that like, I just realized, like how many songs that have just meant something to me.

And it sucks because I forgot to put one in this whole collection of songs that I've got here, which I will tell the story about right now, because if you've heard this before, you've heard it before.

But my best and favorite concert moment ever involves Ozzy Osbourne.

This was on one of the oz Fests that he did back in the two thousands, and I went with a friend and we got like lawn tickets for it, and I remember that there were a lot of bands that we wanted to see, and that was when like here in the Bay Area, there's a place called the shoreline, and the shoreline used to be the place where all these festivals would go through, right, and what they would do is they have a cement parking lot in one spot, and then they have the main stadium space stage with a grass area way in the back, and then seats that go out of the front.

And I dislike that venue.

I've got to go there to go see where it out.

But we've got seats, so it's not as bad.

When you're in the seats, it's great and you can be up there.

But I love being in the pit.

I love being in not necessarily you know, an actual mosh pit.

I love just being in the crowd and singing with everybody and jumping around with everybody.

Even at my.

Age, I still love doing this type of shit.

Right just went and saw baby Metal and Ginger and Bloody Would and there was two rows from the front of the stage, just enjoying myself and getting in with the music, even though I realized, God damn, I'm turning into the old creepy guy that's out here with all the young kids that are all mashing and everything.

But I'm not mashing with anybody.

So I just like, I'd love that experience in the shoreline when it's a big band that I love, I can't be in that section.

But the festivals were cool because they'd set up two stages, you know, one in the parking lot, one kind of off to the side that was smaller that people could go to, and then they would have the main stage that would have you know, all the big bands for the day that you could go and see, and you could come in and out from all the different places.

And so, you know, the last band of the night of course, for that is Ozzy Osbourne and a friend of mine we were out there and we were, you know, kind of in the grass, and I remember listening to music and because the way that it is, and even with Ozzy, you know, there wasn't a whole lot of monshers the hill.

The lawn is at an angle, so it's kind of hard.

It's happened before plenty of times.

There's been giant pits out there, but people fall like crazy, and for Ozzy, it just pits weren't really happening right, and people aren't as energetic and you can kind of hear everybody around you, and so there was and this is how I actually start this audio with everything.

And there's this guy with his son and his son is probably no more than seven, maybe he might have been six, And you know, we're going to the moves and the kid's been dancing to the songs and everything.

He looks up to he's dad and he just kind of like when he's gonna play Cowley, when he's gonna play Cowley, and he's talking about mister Crowley, right, which happened to be that kid's favorite song, because we my friend and I ended up talking to the dude a little bit later and he looks at he says, Oh, don't worry, don't worry, he's gonna play it soon.

You just just hold on you.

You'll have to wait.

And it wasn't played.

I think it was played more towards the end of it.

This one, I'm not so sure, but eventually it does get played, and the kid is just singing it and belting.

He's on his dad's shoulders and looking out over there, and the dad is just so happy, and they both got this giant fucking smile on my face.

And I was just like that that right there, that's what this is about.

And that's what Ozzy was kind of about to me.

I mean, my dad was always big in like he was a big Beatles fan.

He was a big Rolling Stones fan, Creating's clear Water, Tom Petty like.

He loved those kind of bands, but he never really played them.

Like the ones that's funny enough that he played around me were like The Everly Brothers.

So I have this love of the Everly Brothers because of my dad, but it's not like a normal thing, but those that that was the other time.

My dad loved sappy love songs and a lot of adult contemporary pop stuff you know that was there at the same time too, But he did love like the rock of the age.

But he was never a big Black Sabbath fan.

And Black Sabbath was one of the few bands where I kind of found out on my own, not necessarily through a show like the Osbourne's or something like that, but through going to festivals because I wanted to go see somewhere, and then I would hear about people talking about the music, and then you know, some friends go through and then I remember hearing I think Warpigs was the first Black Sabbath song I ever.

Heard, and I absolutely adore that song.

It's not my favorite Black Sabbath song, but it's one of my favorite Black Sabbath songs, and then there's all the you know, the Ozzy stuff, you know, Mama, I'm Coming Home and Shot in the Dark and god, this is just crazy train and suicide solution.

Like, there is a shit ton of Ozzy songs that resonate as well.

Dreamer is a really great song.

Close My Eyes Forever with Leida Ford is a fantastic fucking song if you've never heard that song, but you know, with everything that Ozzy's done and everything that Black Sabbath's done, my favorite song of theirs, and it's it's funny because I love their version.

But there's one I actually love a little more, which is a blue singer that does it that He's just absolutely fantastic.

But that song is Changes and Changes is an absolutely beautiful song.

It's off of Volume four, which is a record that actually have hanging up my house.

I have a Black Sabbath record because it has that song on it, and then that Blizzard of Oz that hangs up in my house, which I you know, I don't I try not to keep many records around.

I don't like buying a whole lot of records, but I've got like basically some of my favorites.

You know that hang up here.

You know, I've got Pearl Jams ten that hangs up in the house, Black Sabbath Volume four.

Then you got a Blizzard of Oz which is hanging up here.

And then I don't have my favorite Cohedon Cambria album, but my ex sister in law she bought me for my birthday a sign Cohedincabria album, so that one, of course is also hanging up on the wall with everything.

So you know, it just sucks, like this whole thing just kind of sucks, and I wish that our heroes wouldn't die, you know, but it's something that kind of gets all this eventually one day.

And so.

As we go out, thank you guys so much for listening to this podcast.
