| 0:00.0 | Hello? Hello, Sydney. What is up, you spooky bitches? We are back with another episode of the Hello Sydney podcast here, a podcast for horror lovers where we discuss any and all things horror. And it's me, your girl, Sydney. Happy Wednesday. |
| 0:23.1 | Happy almost Thanksgiving. I'm sure some of you have probably had some Friendsgiving celebrations. |
| 0:28.8 | I haven't yet. Mine is always a Saturday after Thanksgiving. So I always feel like I have FOMO when I see |
| 0:34.4 | people posting pictures of Friendsgivings already. I'm like, ugh, I want that. but I'll get mine after Thanksgiving. It'll be fine. What's everybody been up to? What's everybody been watching? I went and saw Keeper this week in the theaters, and I was disappointed. I was disappointed. I feel like this movie is just going to be very divisive, and I've seen that it is overall. Like I've seen people like either |
| 0:54.5 | love it or hate it. And I am unfortunately kind of on the hate it end. Like I really did not like it at |
| 1:00.5 | all. I already have a tough time with slow burns. And this one is like a glacially paste slow burn. |
| 1:07.2 | Like it is so entirely slow. Like and me with slow burns, like I'm okay with them if the payoff feels good. But this one, it's like, oh, okay, that's, I don't feel great about this. Like I don't feel like it was worth watching that go so slow. So personally, it just wasn't for me. Again, I've seen a lot of people really love it. So I don't know, check it out. Let me know what you think. But it's definitely my personal least favorite Oz Perkins movie so far. Like I liked long legs. I loved long legs. So I love long legs. And I thought the monkey was a lot of fun. And this one just, it didn't do it for me. And that's okay. We can't win them all. But this week I also watched a movie called Don't Trip on Tobe. You guys might |
| 1:46.5 | remember from a few years ago, like I was producing a movie. And this is that movie. This is said movie. So I remember reading the script for this movie, like literally probably three years ago at this point. And I finally got to watch it. And it was just so cool to see it come to life. And like I know I might be biased towards it because again, like I was part of it being made, which is really awesome. But you will see my name in the credits as an associate producer. No big deal. So that's free on Tubeb if you want to check it out. It's a horror comedy, which you know I'm not usually crazy about, but I think this one is very, it's very L.A. Like, that's the best way I could possibly put it. |
| 2:20.7 | Like, if you've been to L.A., you're like, oh, this is very L.A. Like, it's very clearly satire. So I enjoyed it. But again, I might be biased. So don't go by me with that one. But today we are beginning our conversation about a very deeply, dearly beloved franchise in the |
| 2:37.4 | horror genre, in the horror community. And of course, we're talking about Final Destination. |
| 2:41.7 | And I don't think we're done making these movies. So you probably know the last one in the, |
| 2:47.9 | like the last installment in the franchise came out this year final destination |
| 2:51.6 | bloodlines that was the sixth one and i think we are going to continue to get more final destinations |
| 2:57.7 | probably forever and to be honest i'm going to watch every single fucking one there was a large |
| 3:02.8 | hiatus between the fifth and the sixth one i think the fifth one came out in 2011 and then this one |
| 3:07.3 | didn't |
| 3:07.5 | come out of course until 2025. So it had been a significant amount of time. But I foresee with the |
| 3:13.0 | success of this last one, a new one coming out soon. And again, I'm going to watch every fucking one. |
| 3:18.3 | And you could be sitting there and you could be like, why. The plot to every single movie is |
| 3:23.0 | exactly the same. And yes, that is |
| 3:24.9 | 100,000% true. But I don't care. This is one of those franchises. You watch it for the deaths. |
| 3:30.9 | Like, let's be real. You watch it to see how creative the deaths are going to go. You don't watch it |
