more on them and just a bit.

I'm a little nervous.

The charity movies are very hit or miss.

Yeah, they are, but we'll see.

We'll see.

We're gonna give it a go, and we're excited about it.

We just hope that A gives us some juice.

It's the way to end off the day, our vampire journey,

by going through the first three.

You ready, Tara?

Ah!

I like your shirt.

It says horror hours.

Yeah, this is a new one.

Go snag it.

Reject need shop to come.

Please don't leave it in the comments for me

to do a bunch of parody movies.

Are you guys pleased?

Just like help me out.

That could have been a lot worse.

Oh, yeah.

This was not, um, okay, listen.

I think I'll do all the scary movies.

You guys know who I felt about those.

It was not my top.

It was indeed, but she said,

I got droid.

This one was better to me than scary movie.

It was, uh, I mean, is better than some of the scary movies to me.

I like the first scary movie.

I had to block them all out of my memory, I think.

Maybe I liked the first one,

but I had to watch six of them.

Gregory, back to fucking back.

Five.

Get it correct.

Five, six, six.

Six months coming out.

But this one was, this one wasn't that bad.

This is what actually has a pretty funny moments.

It did.

It did.

I absolutely agree with you.

I think this one was fun.

And like, I like that we actually watched them.

If we watched this fairly recently to ending all of the movies,

we could get like, like, uh, think about the, the 360 shot where

they're bypassing time.

I thought it was cute.

Like, there's a bunch of moments in here that I'm thinking,

oh, if you saw this and you didn't recently see all the other movies,

you wouldn't get everything, but I'm glad that we did.

Cause like, they added it.

There were some good stuff in here.

Yeah.

There was.

There was some good stuff.

Yeah.

I actually had some genuine laughs.

I was really worried that this was just going to be a frustrating experience.

Yeah.

I never quite.

Like I think in the last, they asked these movies are the minimum requirement

of reaching a certain runtime so they can qualify to be a feature film.

Oh.

You know,

Yeah.

And you could feel that they were like doing that because really this is

probably great.

This is probably just right at like a 55 minutes, 60 minutes, you know, right?

Like it's a long SNL sketch parody.

And I like SNL.

So to me, there's plenty of laughs.

It was still pretty funny.

Um, is it a little too long for an animated movie?

Yeah.

It's a little too long.

It stretches that a little too much.

But I got to say, I want to look up as I've never heard of this person before.

I've never seen her before.

Maybe I haven't.

So who played Becca?

Because she was so good.

Let's see.

I thought she was really, really good.

Jen Prosky.

Jen Prosky.

Who are you?

We don't know.

Uh, that's who she's still working.

She was in law and order.

Okay.

Her last thing was in 2022.

Oh, wow.

She didn't work for a long time though.

Oh, wow.

2014 and then, uh, she did some TV.

And then from 2014 to 2022, she didn't work at all until she just saw a lot of like.

Yeah.

She had a reoccurring or a serious regular show called Graceland.

Mm hmm.

I don't know who she is, but she was so good.

She was great.

Yeah.

Her comedic timing was, um, yeah.

Her mannerings were great.

Her comedic timing was on par.

Um, I felt like she was actually playing.

This is my favorite thing with, um, with this spoof movies where I think you can get

it right where they still know that they have to sort of actually play a character or

not just do, um, an impersonation.

Right.

And I think she had like a good line that she wrote to playing like an actual kind of like

Sydney in the scary movies.

Like that's still a character.

Yeah.

You know, uh, or Cindy in the scary movies.

It's still a character.

So she have to still be a little bit of a character.

Yeah.

Whereas like, the guy I played Edward is like, he's fine.

He's funny, but I felt like he was like going for the jokes.

Yeah.

It's still good, but I really felt like she had, she, she brought like an A game level

to this type of genre.

And I am kind of disappointed to see, it's probably because of this movie of Washington

and work that much, but I'm like actually in this movie to me, she's like the best part

of this entire movie.

Yeah.

It's interesting that like maybe she just didn't want to work after 2014.

She got like some episodes here and there where it's like, I'm a little bit in that

phase now too, where I'm like, uh, I'm not.

Really, I didn't see any more, but I've, someone offers me roles, but sometimes they

still do.

I'll take it.

But there may be, and that may be what happened to her because I believe the movie that

I've saw ambulance that she did in 2022, I think I saw that movie and it's not a comedy.

It's very serious and was very, very good.

I remember really liking it.

Like I randomly was watching it at home.

So I'm glad that she's like, was able to maybe at this point pick and choose and that,

if she needed to take a break, because sometimes this whole world and business can be really

tough, that maybe she needed it to, and she is married with two children.

So maybe she took the time to do that too.

Oh, that's what happens.

You have kids ruins your career.

Tell me about it.

And yeah, she, even though LA Times said she's the film's strongest suit, I thought she

was really, really great in this movie.

Yeah.

That was a pleasant surprise.

And yeah, I've seen some of the movies from these guys before and I haven't seen them

in well over a decade.

So I can't honestly tell, all I remember is my experience was sometimes being like kind

of annoyed when I watched the work and I never found myself quite annoyed.

Other times there was a little bit bored towards the end.

Yeah.

But in the first half of this movie, I thought the first half of this movie was really

fun.

Yeah, they were moving it.

Yeah, they were moving it.

The bits were really, it's kind of weird when sometimes like Twilight itself is inherently

kind of funny.

It is.

Sometimes they were doing things like, well, that's, that's the movie, it's Twilight itself

is funny.

Yeah.

Exactly.

So sometimes it was like, you're just adding on to a moment that was already funny.

Yes.

But other times I thought they did a really like great enhancement of it.

I like to like this self-aware jokes, the meta jokes, the time they're like calling

it out.

The more subtle stuff of like, hey, they're really boring and frigid and like they're

super into her.

Yeah.

And everyone loves you.

But like, yeah, totally.

That was funny.

Or after she has like her sex suit on and then she falls through the ceiling.

Yeah.

And then she goes, we have to take it slow, like the things like that were really funny.

Yeah.

This movie was surprisingly funnier than I expected it to be.

Like I have never had any interest in watching this movie.

And I was surprised by how this was actually a good time.

This was, I had a rather good time.

The last 10 minutes I was a little bored.

But yeah.

For us, 80 minute movie, a solid 70 minutes of it reasonably to very entertaining.

Yeah.

I think the best thing they did was the kissing part when, because I laughed at that in

the movies.

And you guys, oh, I love the Twilight movies.

But I was like, he literally looks like he's going in his pants when he kisses her for

the first time.

And they highlighted that.

And then they highlighted it again when he goes to bite her that they're like looking

like they're juicing it.

And I just really liked how much they highlighted it.

Like that's what sketch comedy is.

You just, you play the game and you, you make it go bigger and bigger and bigger.

And they did that.

And so I had a good time.

I thought it was good.

You want to read some just simple, yeah, this is a way to end her Twilight journey.

Question ask.

Yeah, I'm going to read the first one.

Let me start with something honest.

I'm not the most hardcore sports person in the world believe it or not.

But I am hardcore about my love for my wife.

She's the reason I even discovered fantasy sports.

She and her friends play together.

And I wanted a way to join in without needing to know every stat sheet in existence.

That is actually how I discovered price picks.

Price picks is a daily fantasy sports app where you build lineups by picking more or

less on player stat projections.

You pick two to six players.

And if your picks are right, you have the opportunity to cash in.

It's basically fantasy sports built around player stats instead of drafting entire teams.

So it feels way easier to jump onto, especially for someone like myself.

You can pick from tons of sports, basketball, baseball, hockey, UFC, golf, tennis, e sports

and more.

Whatever those more are.

You have great features like the early payouts, the stacks and flex play price picks.

They operate in all 50 states and that includes California and withdrawals are fast and secure.

So rejects.

You can download the price picks app today and use code rejects to get $50 in lineup

after you play your first $5 line up that's code rejects to get $50 in lineups after

you play your first $5 line up price picks.

It's good to be right.

Awesome Joe movie reviews.

Most parody movies are really bad.

This one does not have a lot of ridiculous jokes that aren't really that funny.

But also there are some good jokes that made me chuckle as well.

Did you see this as successful enough to want a sequel of this franchise?

Other films.

Oh, to sequel of this franchise is other films since this one only involved the first two

films.

I see.

No, I don't think I'd be like, wait, we've got to do a parody of bringing down now unless

they were like, we'll give you 35 minutes of it because then I think it would be like,

you'd get it.

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.

And it would move really quick.

You'd be like, that's pretty good.

But I feel like with what Greg was saying, they have to stretch it out to make a feature

film mark.

So I, even though I totally agree with you, I'm not like ridiculously like thinking that

it was ridiculously funny, but there are and were some very, very good jokes.

But no, I'm not, I'm not needing to see more.

Yeah, I feel like the gag that I don't like anymore with a lot of these like spoof movies

is like, just have people get hit and they fall down.

Yeah.

And this movie is not as indulgent in that as I thought it might be.

And so to me, a lot of the funnier jokes actually came in the form of when it's just kind

of dialogue driven.

Yes.

Or something that is physical, but not just they get hit and fall over, you know.

And I think I feel like breaking Dawn woodland itself to that because it's just like weird

intimacy stuff.

Yeah.

And the big fight.

Yeah.

I think it made fun of the baby too, but they would have to do something that like really

leans into it and not just be like, Hey, you're a CGI baby, like just just calling it out

doesn't make it funny.

Like you have to actually make a joke out of it in some way.

But I actually thought they, because they made such a weird fucking ending here with the

dance and the prom and then getting crowned and then she turns into a vampire, I felt like

they ended the movie.

Right.

I felt like they ended in a way where there doesn't need to be more story for vampires

because what happened in the finale was not the Twilight movie at all, like this whole

movies, the Twilight movies, until the very ending where like what is this weird fucking

prom?

Yeah.

Totally.

So once I did that, they just completely did their own thing and deviated from Twilight

to the point where it's like, okay, you just ended this so where you don't need to have

sequels now.

Yeah.

And they killed.

They killed that word.

So I like.

Yeah.

We're done.

We're done.

I could just ask you all questions about how bad this movie is, but my question will

be what are some of y'all's favorite in these favorite parody movies?

The best for me is probably aeroplane or not another team movie.

The worst is probably this movie or scary movie, five.

Scary movie, five is pretty bad.

Seven favorite parody movie.

Oh, there's this one with Val Kilmer.

I like the lot growing up called Top Secret, but my favorite one of all time would have

to be the movie Walk Hard with John C. Riley.

That is undoubtedly my favorite spoof movie.

Have you seen it?

Walk Hard.

Oh, God, it's so fucking good.

I love it.

I watch it like every couple of years.

That's based off Walk the Line.

It's it's it's it walked the lines the main one, but it's mainly makes fun of music biopics.

But it's like a good spoof like a creator character.

They create a whole story.

It's not just like do scenes from this movie sometimes they do, but for most of it is

just like it's really doing it's like they create songs for the movie.

Oh, that's cool.

Are they good?

Yeah, they're surprising.

They're funny, but they're actually like good.

Good.

Like they're well, they're well produced and the John C. Riley's a professional singer.

So yeah, that was actually that's my favorite one of them all.

I'm gonna tell you right now, Jayden, parody movies, not really up my alley, right?

It's not a thing that I that I like.

I couldn't even tell you I was scary movie, but I haven't with you.

I'm like that probably was a worse one.

Like I think when I was watching scary movies, I would always say that the first one was

like better than the rest to me.

And I did watch those like a while ago.

I can't think of any parody like I am not the person that sits down at home and goes,

let's watch a parody movie.

I'm like, no, no, thanks.

I'm good.

So I don't know that I could I don't think I could give you one to be honest with you.

That's fair.

Maybe it would be this one.

Airplane's a good one.

Airplane's funny.

I saw that like a long, long, long time ago.

I also think the naked gun reboot is a good one.

My God.

My God.

I saw it like see, I saw like I think airplane and like naked gun.

I do remember like seeing those on my TV like at a party or with friends or something and

being like, yeah, ha, ha, but there's a reason I'm doing this job.

I grew up in the movies, right?

I love the movies.

What I want from a movie is for me to go into a movie theater and the reason I went into

5,000 hours of debt when I was 19 years old, going to the arc light when I was in college

is because I wanted it to take me out of my life and into another world and a parody

doesn't do that because we're making fun of the world.

I want to be taken out of I want to be locked in so hard on the characters and story and

a parody doesn't do that.

I did sketch comedy comedy for a very long time.

So maybe I'm also just like, uh, like tired of it.

I don't know, but I want the movie to take me somewhere and the parodies don't do that.

So that's why I don't have a good answer for you, Jayden.

That's fair.

And then, uh, Jay Russian question, this movie was bad.

Take guests on Rotten off score.

Oh, I'm going to say nine percent.

Oh, God, that's low.

I'm going to say, um, I won't look.

I'm going to say 23%.

Let's see.

I'm going to say 49% audience, nine percent critics.

Oh, okay.

Let's say critics, 23% audience, 31.

You're really close to the audience.

I got so close to the audience.

I'm really good.

It's a rotten to me.

I score sometimes, but wow, four percent hated it.

That's bad.

That's really bad.

But you know what, did critics really go see it?

Because like if I was a critic and like, I've been invited to film stuff.

Like sometimes we do, I wouldn't go.

So how many grades is the, is he's only 89 versus 50,000 of the audience.

So that score doesn't really even out to me.

I mean, it's still pretty bad, but I think it's still horrible.

It's still real.

Obviously, this movie is not great.

You're not going to be like, you got, you got to see this one.

Yeah.

It's sort of like, yeah, played on in the background.

If you want to make fun of Twilight, done deal, you know, but not there was enough

laughs in it where I wouldn't give it.

I would give this movie like a 45%.

Why you don't, I think I would go with what I said.

Like, yeah, 31.

Oh, but damn, Melania has 11%.

We should watch Melania.

Oh, God.

Anyway, guys, we're done here now.

Yeah.

So much for me here.

We are.
