well ah Frank Castle is dead call me Punisher God keep that crane steady sorry it’s what this music is made that was good oh my goodness Tara Erickson we finally saw the Punisher yeah wow wow wow wow that was so much fun I can’t that was a blast which yeah would you think oh it’s great I loved it like I need to go and buy a Punisher t-shirt right now because I have a new I have a new found just like yes you’re gonna be rocking the punishment oh yeah Kevin feige got a credit man
he was already working on this stuff way back in the DIA this was fun yeah it was fun I mean like it’s weird you know knowing the Punisher as a character and and seeing you know at least you know being familiar with the show and stuff like that you have an idea of of what the oh Conrad Hall shot this nice uh you have an idea of of the sort of movie you’re getting into and this has that but it wasn’t exactly what I was expecting exactly like it’s certainly an action movie there’s a lot
of Carnage and and violence and stunts and a body count but it’s not like as extreme and like just middle the whole time as as you would maybe expect you know like the John Bernthal Punisher is like oh I love that show it’s great and it’s like it’s harsh and and like yeah there’s a different quality to like who Frank Castle is here and it feels kind of like indicative of yeah an earlier you know period of this kind of movie and these Comics adaptation to the screen and uh it’s been interesting because uh what
does it mean Roxy have been watching the Blade movies which started in the late 90s and go through the 2000s and then this is like the early 2000s and like watching this this has definitely like a it feels yeah like we were talking about it has that kind of like 90s sort of breathability where like again I don’t I don’t know like what the the most definitive version of the origin is but this felt kind of like the right especially for the moment in time balance between yes this is an action movie it’s got all
a lot of the comic book you know uh aspects and motifs and stuff like that but like at the start of the movie I was like you know oh this is like this is starting out like it feels like I’m watching face off or something like that where it’s like you have this sort of steady build of the circumstances like I don’t know I guess I I initially had expected the kind of movie where you would start out on some kind of Massacre of his family and that’s like the prologue right and then the rest
of it is like yeah this really harsh like grimy gritty thing which you know might come you know in later movies or like war zone or you know but uh but yeah this was this was a neat like Time Capsule because of that because it has I guess what I’m trying to say is like it has all that punisher-ness but not exactly yeah as like roided out of an experience as you might expect yeah they took their time more at the top with like the family setting it up that it was like oh let’s just
see him in his like five language setup like setting these guys up right using all of his skills that was John Pinette of course uh uh bimbo or whatever his name was like he’s so freaking funny oh my God I’ve seen his stand up a million times I was trying to place him he’s great um but yes continue sorry uh no it’s all good I mean he’s he’s great uh what was I saying oh yeah I was just saying that they have a more of the setup at the top which yeah it’s it’s like oh
okay we get to see him with his skill set and setting up these people and then cut to the family and seeing like the origin of the T-shirt yes uh was is pretty awesome that it comes from like his son so it has this sentiment attached to it yeah um is that a comic comment below is that a comic accurate detail yeah I I mean I would love to know I’m like unless they just add that in the only one thing that I thought was really weird in this movie is that when they go they
put him and her down below in the when they’re uh interrogating Dave yeah and she’s covering his mouth I’m like well why he wouldn’t know how to be quiet like right like he’s making too much noise occasionally going uh that’s the only thing unless you would be like fighting her like I’m gonna go up I I would understand the sentiment of him saying I’m gonna go up and I’m gonna freaking kill him like don’t touch Dave don’t touch my friends yeah that was the only one weird thing and she kept covering his mouth that he
looked passed out um any other than that I love the freaking movie but you guys know me I always point out the weird things I’m like this one weird thing I don’t know it’s in my head hey other than that he’s self-terror the car stunts were freaking amazing I love the low angle catching every car go over like a hump or flying in the air there was obviously a style to it where you can catch more of the height from a lower angle with the cars and I thought that was dope yeah the one thing
that the Michael Myers masks were awesome but that one was a little obvious where I’m a little I don’t know I’m like oh couldn’t they just have thrown like a couple thou at it to be like make that not look like that yeah slightly frequently so you can’t see the the mask the mask yeah it’s either yeah it’s either a dummy or an actor like with yeah protective mask or something I think it’s a dummy It’s gotta be right I mean that was the only other thing but the stunts in this were awesome they were
like they were they really again I guess that’s it it’s like you know it’s not it’s definitely got a lot of action it’s definitely got a lot of deaths and stuff like that and a lot of you know like gratifying Revenge not Vengeance punishments punishments um but yeah it’s like when there are action scenes going down they are like so there’s just like so much destruction and and yeah like in the car chases they’re really like visceral and the way they’re capturing them you just feel the weight and the kind of I don’t know like
how much damage these vehicles must be taking on and then all the physical stunts do too like all those fights and especially like you know the more you’re like wrecking a room like when they’re in uh his place and that big wall though guys yeah beat the crap out of him and throwing them through walls and and through railings and and like there’s so many physical elements that get destroyed throughout all this like really sells the studs and you’re like yeah this all this just looks painful yeah and even though it’s not necessarily the kind
of movie poised to give you like a million money shots like they do have a good amount of like distinct kills and uh and yeah they build the stakes of like you know I don’t know if this uh Saint character is necessarily like you know a prominent comic book villain for The Punisher he’s not like jigsaw necessarily where he’s like big and outlandish but you know like he he is certainly hateable and I loved watching Frank like really like in a long game sort of way dismantle and ultimately destroy his entire higher operation and yeah
like you know on the heels of having his family Massacre then he makes him do it by his own hand essentially is is super smart yeah it’s like personal and harsh and skin nasty I was so glad when those pictures came back I was like yeah he’s gonna regret that so hard and then they did at the very end with the earring I was like oh that’s awesome well that too because because the thing is you know again with takes on The Punisher and I haven’t seen every Take On The Punisher but uh you know
I think you you imagine that it’s gonna lead with physicality with big guns with Carnage but I liked here that certainly while he’s physically capable he’s also like smart and a tactician and he’s good at like sizing up who he’s going up against and using all that stuff against them and using their own hubris and all that stuff to ultimately really seal their downfall and playing yeah their own deceits against each other like I love that at first you’re like what’s this thing with the fire hydrants and the car and pretty soon you’re like wow
oh yeah he is so smart save that spot spin this lie yeah yeah and then watch it come back later and uh yeah like the prologue of the movie I was I was like are we watching the right film right now because I’m not as familiar with the idea that he’s like you know an undercover FBI guy doing this stuff but it was fun to see like yeah Thomas Jane like in a totally different mode playing this like I don’t know I can remember he’s like Russian or German or whatever um you know like it
starts out more like an earlier movie adaptation too where you feel like okay we’ve kind of taken it and made it like I feel like nowadays you get like a John Bernthal who looks like freaking huge and like he could you know beat the out of anybody and like Thomas Jane he’s fit certainly he’s muscular in this you believe everything he’s doing but he’s not like so giant and yeah he’s not like built like some machines so it’s like even though there are aspects of this where I’m like I wonder how like you know people
would view this in terms of like being a definitive Punisher or not but I thought this really nicely split the difference between being like you know a film of its time but also very much translating so much of the source material of the Punisher you mean yeah exactly like it doesn’t necessarily feel like you know it’s not a one-to-one to what they do with like the the John Bernthal show or anything like that but uh but yeah I don’t know it felt like it breathed and moved and had scenes like an actual movie from this
time uh and so yeah it I’m just fascinated by that because we have so many of these kinds of movies and adaptations now and there are you know stylistic earmarks that can feel very sort of requisite or alike in the current days sort of superhero movie complex but uh I don’t know going back to these little time capsules is great because I don’t know yeah again this this does you got John Travolta in here and like yeah kept reminding me in little ways sort of of a movie like face off it’s not quite as long
as that but you know it’s that same thing of like this this conflict based on a very personal sort of death or Massacre and then yeah watching these two guys sort of cat and mouse each other until it comes to this final showdown and uh yeah I thought it was nicely handled like it was is it interesting it was like it wasn’t exactly what I expected but it was like the right amount of what I expected yeah and like the the one part that I think they could have done a little bit more of because
I’m like the stunts in this are so awesome that I’m like come on the wife and the son you have a car behind you and there’s water jump off the sides and have the cars like hit them and have like the body fall I don’t know do some cool stunt thing I know that they probably in their head they wanted a shot where he’s holding them because it makes it for like engaging for the audience but I always think like comic panel I just want I always want it to be like make the every single
person in this like smart that they know how to like outskirt death a little bit like we all would um I just was like oh that would be that would make him extra mad if like the wife was like in half over the edge that’s bad that’s just me and my brain going somewhere because I’m like don’t you think they would have thought just jump in the water anyway um the next my favorite favorite shot was when knife goes through that guy’s mouth and he’s just like that guy that’s so awesome uh he must be
like a pro I recognize him I feel like that I’ve seen him in movies as maybe just as stunts but maybe that’s why they spent time on him because you’re like they spent time on that guy yeah he got the special treatment in terms of like horror he gets he got the good shot he gets the the cheek slice the mi2 cheek slice early on and then he gets like all of the knives later yeah yeah and a close-up shot of his face yeah and the knife goes through which is really lovely in my opinion
sure oh my gosh and the the pull-up of the crane in the shot over the head of the cars with the Punisher like in Flames come on man that’s so comic book and like uh awesome and that’s and it’s like the right amount of cheese that’s the thing is like I feel like a little corny but great yeah yeah yeah and it works again for like for 2005 for the kind of movie we’re going with and for the the fact that like these movies too have just a different sense of humor and I feel like
that is you know a bit humorous in its height you know he had to clearly have mapped out this you know fire skull but yeah it’s like it’s just the right pitch and it makes it really fun and this movie I think manages to nicely occupy a space where yeah it is kind of harsh and there is like some bleakness to it but it’s not like too dark to where it’s not fun in a way it is that kind of like more exploitation movie brand of fun because like you know Dave and his name bimbo
and Joan like all three of them super charming and I really like them and and they entered the plot in a very sort of gradual and and just believable way like I thought this was kind of gracefully paced in a lot of Senses minus maybe a couple like harsh Cuts here or there yeah that there was only one harsh cut which I everything else was cut really nicely especially when they go up to when he goes up through the dumb waiter and there’s like the champagne cut to like guy blood champagne popping off it felt
that that cutting felt like really modern there was one at the very beginning that I was just like how did nobody realize like this is a harsh cut everything else I thought was was awesome but I thought that the three of them added heart to the movie yeah in in a way that you you didn’t really see coming you just thought maybe the heart exists over here and there’s there’s three buddies that look out the Punisher but then when it all comes together and they invite him to to dinner and Dave is like well the
reason I didn’t speak up because we’re all thinking that like bro you met this guy 20 minutes ago kind of like why are you gonna have your face torn up for him but the the sentiment is is they live by if your family that’s just how we roll and they of course Very Much deserve however much money they got in those even though he has not known them for long these are the type of people that deserve uh the rewards that come with standing by a neighbor yeah which I really liked that they got that
reward yeah and I believe that that Bond happening of like even though yeah we don’t know each other super well there’s something about this ragtag group like they all just felt like they kind of congealed because they wound up at the same building and sort of bonded just despite all the circumstances and so I thought that nicely kind of allowed them to have the will they won’t they with him and Joan and then It ultimately doesn’t turn into anything but that feels appropriate and so uh yeah just like a lot of nice little flourishes and
things like that a lot of great character actors across this uh uh the guy who played glass especially the guy who played Mickey I’ve seen them in a few other things as well and uh and and like yeah that too like him doing the whole blowtorch popsicle oh yeah you forgot about that like that was such a great little gag so great yeah yeah all of it I enjoyed this quite a bit I’m curious to hear what people’s responses are because yeah I feel like in the Modern Age you expect uh it’s just something like
more kind of thrasher punishing and thrashy and balls to the walls and just car Carnage on Carnage and this is definitely an action movie but it’s not like overwhelming you I feel like it knows well enough and it’s from a time where it’s like yeah let’s let’s breathe this out let’s build some steaks let’s Mount some things so that when stuff really starts to pop off you feel it and you want that catharsis of the punishment yeah yeah yeah yeah well you got any extra stray thoughts before we get out of here I had a
blast man no man this is good old times and I can’t wait to get my Punisher t-shirt even though John Burns out like a show I loved that show I was like oh I’m in it but like why didn’t I get a t-shirt then dude you’re not a you’re a fake fan Tara I know man well now I know because I was like well I hadn’t watched this one so like I wasn’t about to buy a t-shirt when I knew there were other Punisher things out there that I have not watched so not really am
I a fake fan I’m a smart fan right I’m not trying to no I’m not trying to walk around the T-shirt being like I watched the show but I didn’t watch that movie from 2004 so like I just leave those out of it because I want the T-shirt now and I don’t want to have to say that I’ve got three other movies I gotta get to before I can wear the T-shirt the next time you see Tara Erickson she will be in a Punisher team three of them absolutely all at once well guys leave us
your thoughts on The Punisher leave a like on the video tell us what you are interested in seeing next and uh and hey how do you feel about Thomas Jane in the role I guess I guess before we get out of here we should at least touch on it I liked him a lot yeah yeah yeah like he’s uh I thought his he did the transition really well because you believe him as like you know happy family reunion guy ex-military but not like 2x military to the point where you’re like this guy is is just
that always you know yeah and then when it transitions into him you know really having his life torn down like I almost had that sort of robocop-esque kind of tragedy where it’s like oh man they’re just going like so hard on this guy and his whole family and they’re like shooting him up and yeah I thought he like did a really nice job of of anchoring this I feel like people don’t bring up his portrayal as much and certainly John Bernthal kind of towers above everything now but I thought he did a really nice job
with this and and yeah like I feel like he’s a bit like of an understated kind of choice but I really liked his presence here and and that short he did it was this short called laundry day um they got some pretty yeah there was a period of time where uh I think his name is Artie Shankar he was like producing a bunch of like really Pro ass fan films fan shorts and uh Thomas Jane came back for that so I’m glad that he at least got the respect uh from that nice yeah yeah I
thought he was awesome and I was like oh I need to watch a TV show that he’s in because now I see his face and I’m like he’s a lead in a TV show right now and I don’t know what the TV show is but I gotta watch it they’re like by the beach and he has guns yeah pretty sure and there’s like another lady he’s gonna lead with you guys can leave it in the comments and yell at me where he belongs on the beach with guns and a lady exactly because yeah he’s one
of those actors too where I feel like there was a moment where it seems like oh man this guy’s gonna star on a bunch of stuff and then he yeah and then he didn’t continue that but he’s like in in he still continuously has worked yeah and he’ll these days he keeps showing up in places where I’m like oh Thomas James in it and he’s always really every time I see him I’m always like he leaves an impression he’s really good he’s very good at what he does guys leave us your thoughts on The Punisher
leave us a comment with your wishes leave a like on the video and hey last but not least before we get out of here let’s do a page Chris Wham off Chris listen buddy I know we often talk about how good of a guy Chris is like one of the best people really he’s out here always looking out for folks a participant in his community Chris is an altruistic caring person all right I mean I’m just gonna take John’s word for it but I’m not gonna say that I truly believe it because I haven’t met
you yet Chris okay that’s the thing though is is you don’t know where the line is with Chris you know he could become the Punisher if pushed far enough wow and uh I don’t I mean I don’t wish that upon you but at the same time I’m like what would it be like if pretty cool because I don’t think yeah just knowing who you’re what your moral compass is like I don’t think you would take it out on everybody I feel like the people who need to be taken out he takes out that’s what Chris
does that’s what Chris does yeah he knows he knows good guy you stay good guy stays bad guy goes yeah so even at the brink of nihilistic despair I feel like you would still have a good grip on the moral compass and uh Hey if you showed up and you were like you know it’s time to accept your punishment I’ll probably be like yeah you know I trust your judgment Chris I probably have done some heinous things so uh you know I I just do what you got to do and make it for me I’d
be like and it’s time for you to accept yours no so then it would be a Face-Off between me and you Chris it could be his arch nemesis villain guys it’s time for a lady Punisher lady Punisher Punisher put me in it man punish watch my reels they’re on YouTube all right I’m telling you that that genre of film that fits perfect for me it’s so bad Miss Punisher put me in it come on now Chris if there’s a Miss Punisher that comes out and they don’t let me audition I’m gonna write that comic so
that Tara has a star vehicle thank you so much that’s how you avoid this this life language but anyway we love you buddy stay pledged and uh we’ll catch you next month thank you for all your support and for being a good human a bright light and a shining example to us all much love buddy we did it
