0:00.0	What's up, my friends? It's Matt. This is the 10-minute Bible Hour podcast. Then back in the mid-2000s,
0:11.8	there was a director, I mean, he's still alive. So there's still a director named Edgar Wright.
0:17.2	And at that point, he would have been a really young guy. I mean, he's not 50 now. So,
0:23.1	it was just kind of an epiphany for me. Yeah, he was a kid when he was coming up with a whole new
0:28.2	approach to directorial editorial comedy. He did hot fuzz, Sean of the dead.
0:36.2	And the jokes are, they're visual. It's the way the camera whips around. It's the way you cut
0:41.6	to the next thing so that the joke comes off of the verbal cue and the two sort of work in tandem,
0:48.0	as though the editor or the camera is part of a comedy duo. It's the fun way to edit. I think
0:54.2	he was on Ant-Man at the beginning as well. And most of the funny stuff in Ant-Man, I think,
0:58.8	was Edgar Wright. All of that to say, this comedic directorial style influenced a whole bunch
1:05.5	of other people. And one of the shows that I think really latched on to Edgar Wright's style in
1:10.9	the early 20 teens was the movie adaptation of the TV show 21 Jump Street, which was pretty funny.
1:17.2	And as usual, the official policy of this program is that I don't recommend that you watch
1:22.0	anything ever at all because all of it is bad and disturbing. But in this show that I highly
1:28.4	don't recommend, there's this one really funny directorial style joke editing style joke that
1:34.4	they tell where they're on this big car chase through traffic. And all of these things keep
1:39.7	happening that should cause stuff to explode. And it plays off of the whole drope that the
1:44.4	audience is used to where something that should explode gets hit with a thing. And then there's
1:49.4	music, and then it gets quiet. And then you expect the theater rocking explosion as everything ramps
1:57.8	up. And so we kept doing that. And like gasoline trucks are getting hit with things like,
2:02.9	don't, don't, don't, don't, don't. But then it just doesn't explode at all. It's delightful.
2:09.2	And then after like three of those, wow, how did that not explode kind of moments,
	...
