SPEAKER 09 :
It’s finally Friday on Rush to Reason with your host, John Rush.
SPEAKER 12 :
So I tell him I’m a pro jack. And who do you think they give me? The Dalai Lama himself. So we finish 18, and he’s going to sniff me. And I say, hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know? And he says, oh, it won’t be any money. But when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness. So I got that going.
SPEAKER 09 :
And movie reviews with Andy Payne.
SPEAKER 13 :
I think that you got the wrong impression about me. I think in all fairness, I should explain to you exactly what it is that I do.
SPEAKER 06 :
What I do have are a very particular set of skills. Skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you.
SPEAKER 10 :
Gee, Ray, what do you want to do tonight?
SPEAKER 12 :
The same thing we do every night, Pinky. Try to take over the world. Stick a fork in me, Jerry. I’m done.
SPEAKER 09 :
Now, here is your host of Rush to Reason, John Rush.
SPEAKER 03 :
All right, happy Friday, everybody. Rush to Reason, Denver’s Afternoon Rush, KLZ 560. Charlie Grimes, of course, our engineer, Andy with me. Today, Andy Pate. And how’s Andy?
SPEAKER 04 :
Andy is doing well.
SPEAKER 03 :
It’s movie day. It’s movie day, end of the week, fun day.
SPEAKER 04 :
Uh-huh.
SPEAKER 03 :
And off we go.
SPEAKER 04 :
It’s been a wild week.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah. Yeah. Absolutely.
SPEAKER 04 :
I know you’ve been very frustrated. Everybody wants to talk about one topic.
SPEAKER 03 :
Which we’re not going to talk about today.
SPEAKER 04 :
That we’re not going to talk about today. But I’m just saying it’s been a weird week because people keep coming back to one topic you don’t care about.
SPEAKER 03 :
Personally, no. And I think I’ve made that pretty clear on this program. And unfortunately, we are in agreement on this one.
SPEAKER 04 :
Now one thing I did love this week is the weather. There’s been a lot of rain. My lawn has been very happy.
SPEAKER 03 :
I will take that as well.
SPEAKER 04 :
And I like that, and it’s a beautiful day, so there you go.
SPEAKER 03 :
And it looks like we have a really nice weekend, so it can rain during the week, and we’ll be fine as we get into the weekend. Yes. Absolutely, absolutely. All right, what movies do we have today, Andy?
SPEAKER 04 :
Okay, we’re going to do I Know What You Did Last Summer and Smurfs.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay, so I Know What You Did Last Summer.
SPEAKER 04 :
They should have combined them.
SPEAKER 03 :
Smurfs.
SPEAKER 04 :
I Know What Smurfs Did Last Summer. I think that would have been good. What do you think? Yeah, that wouldn’t be so bad. A killer Smurf movie?
SPEAKER 03 :
Killer Smurfs.
SPEAKER 04 :
That would have worked for me. I just, I don’t know. Maybe next time.
SPEAKER 03 :
Next summer. I’ve seen, it’s been a long time ago since I saw the original. I know you did last summer, but Smurfs, I’ve never watched any Smurfs stuff ever.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, well, they are obviously a big phenomenon, and this has been pumped up big, this movie has.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay. There you go. And then second hour today, which we might start a little bit early because we’ve got a lot to do. We’re going to do one-hit wonders when it comes, not movies, one-hit wonder songs, right? Yep. That should be fun. I’ve got to be honest.
SPEAKER 04 :
I’ve got a ton of them. There is a ton. And it was fun. It was a lot of fun coming up with all these clips. There are so many. And I honestly hadn’t thought there were this many one-hit wonders.
SPEAKER 03 :
There’s quite a few.
SPEAKER 04 :
And there are a lot I had to leave out.
SPEAKER 03 :
It’s pretty incredible. And it’s amazing when you listen to the… history of some of these and what made them you know a one-hit wonder right and in some cases it could have been uh you know it was in a movie or something along those lines and then and it just the band itself just never or the other thing i was i was watching a one-hit wonder thing the other night because of this so i was watching some clips on this the other night in some cases something happens to where the band does really well there’s a one-hit wonder and because of that the band itself can’t handle the success and they just all, you know, collapse. And they tear apart. Yeah. Yeah. The whole thing is gone.
SPEAKER 04 :
Oh yeah. Yeah. Most of these, the vast majority, I would say are in movies because that one hit is in a movie and that’s what makes them very popular. And they just didn’t have it. They weren’t able. Now, Don’t get me wrong. If people want to call in or text in with one-hit wonders, it doesn’t have to be the only good song a band or artist put out. They may have done some others that did something, but they had one that easily blew away.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah, we’re not talking the Elvises of the world here, folks. Oh, no. Where he had hit after hit after hit after hit. This isn’t Billy Joel. Yeah, exactly.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, yeah. It’s not the Beatles. That’s right. That’s right. These are people or bands that you have been
SPEAKER 03 :
barely heard of you probably know the song but maybe not even the name of the artist those are the things we’re kind of talking about right there’s a lot of that yeah where you you know the song because it was the one hit wonder but you’re thinking and in some cases too this is the other thing that happens well i thought so-and-so sang that yeah no No, this was a one-off by so-and-so, and no, it had nothing to do with the band you’re thinking of.
SPEAKER 04 :
Right. But if you’re thinking, hey, I’d really like to do this one, but they did have one or two other songs. That counts. No, no, no, that’s okay. As long as they had one big hit, there you go.
SPEAKER 03 :
No, that makes total sense. So that’s the caveat for the rules, I should say, for our two weeks. We might start here a little bit later. We’ll see how things go, but let’s get our first break. We’ll come back and get into the first movie review as well, which today I think we’re going to do it in this order. I know what you did last summer is first. Is that correct? Yes. Yes, it is.

SPEAKER 04 :
He’s not sure. I guess I need to be. I don’t know on these two.
SPEAKER 03 :
I’m not sure.
SPEAKER 04 :
I know a horror movie and a little kid movie.
SPEAKER 03 :
We’re mixing it up. That’s all right.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, we’re mixing it up. Okay, John, a horror hit.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 04 :
And it was a big hit.
SPEAKER 03 :
No, you’re right.
SPEAKER 04 :
Now, you saw the original one. I did. Okay. A horror hit gets a legacy sequel in I Know What You Did Last Summer.
SPEAKER 02 :
I think this is some kind of karma for what we did. What if someone saw what happened?
SPEAKER 12 :
You need to handle this. This isn’t the first time there’s been violence like this in Southport. It’s not going to stop.
SPEAKER 10 :
I need to start drinking.
SPEAKER 02 :
Someone is coming after us. I need your help.
SPEAKER 07 :
I just have one question. What did you do last summer?
SPEAKER 04 :
All right, John, what did you do last summer? Did you drive anybody off a cliff?
SPEAKER 03 :
I was right here.
SPEAKER 04 :
Oh, you were right here. Okay, I guess you don’t have to worry. All right, for those who don’t know the original plot, a group of young people kill a guy with a car and cover it up. That’s the original movie. A year later, they’re being hunted by a guy in a dark green coat with a hook. Arr! Mix in some funny writing and scary kills, and you’ve got a hit. Now it’s 28 years later. Isn’t that another film? Pretty sure it is. And we’re back in Southport, North Carolina. A new young group has a similar incident. And while they call the cops, they hide their role in the death. Then a year passes. Well, now Danica and Wyatt are engaged, and their party is attended by Ava, Milo, Stevie, and Tyler. I know you won’t remember these names. It’s okay. You don’t have to. But then at a public gift opening, Danica, she gets a note. She’s the bride. And what does it say, John?
SPEAKER 03 :
What do you think that note says? I know what you did last summer.
SPEAKER 04 :
Exactly. That’s what it says. That’s what the first movie was anyways. Right. And so she’s looking at this note in front of everybody while she’s opening gifts. Well, now the group is being hunted by another killer in a dark raincoat with a hook and a spear gun. So it was kind of branching out here. I wonder, does the killer also use a net, bait, a bobber? I’m not quite sure. But it was pretty cool. As horrifying death ensues, the youngsters seek help from two people who survived the original killer, Julie and Ray. They’re played by Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr., By the way, he’s a Republican in real life.
SPEAKER 03 :
Oh, okay.
SPEAKER 04 :
Just so you know. Well, let’s see here. But who is the killer, John? Is it one of them? Did someone see the accident a year earlier? As usual, we watch a bunch of young models battle to survive. Can they? And that’s the story of I Know What You Did Last Summer. What do you think? You know, the first movie was really good. Yeah, it was, wasn’t it? Yeah, it was. And before we get into this, why was the first movie good? It was clever writing.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah, and I think just one of those, how should I say this, a movie about something that, not that everybody goes and kills somebody, but people do things that they hide. Right. Especially when you’re young. And in this case, it got found out.
SPEAKER 04 :
I mean, think of it this way. All of us have had a moment you’re looking down while you’re driving or, you know, you’re distracted for whatever reason, and you look up and you think to yourself, man, I could have hit that guy over here. I could have hit that dog. I could have whatever.
SPEAKER 03 :
You can see that guy in black clothing, you know, pitch dark at 10 o’clock at night.
SPEAKER 04 :
Exactly. And so what if you luck out and, you know, what if you try to cover it up because you have certain things happening in your life where maybe you’re a politician, right? I don’t know.
SPEAKER 03 :
Maybe you’re whatever.
SPEAKER 04 :
And by the way, the original scene in the original movie where they kill the person was panned beautifully on Scary Movie. Remember that? Oh, my gosh, they made fun of that. It was one of the funniest scenes of Scary Movie, making fun of that. Okay, let’s jump into this. What works in I Know What You Did Last Summer? Well, first, the young cast does what they can with their roles. They do. Madeline Klein as Danica and Chase Swee Wonders as Ava, they’re pretty good spring queens, frightened yet determined, so they do a pretty good job. Jennifer loved Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr. They add more than nostalgia. They’ve been through hell, and now they have much to add to the story, and they do. The pacing is generally solid, with good build-up to kills and flashbacks for reference. Nicely done. The action is intense and scary and bloody. You do not want to be these people. And finally, there’s one plot twist that is very inventive. About two-thirds, no, about three-quarters of the way through the movie. All right. What doesn’t work in I Know What You Did Last Summer? Well, first of all, John, another car killing to start it? I mean, can’t they think of something new and inventive? There are other things that you can do that are stupid that might cost a life or whatever. You know, step it up a little. Don’t do the same thing next. Too predictable throughout most of the film. It was a true rehash. Just in the feel of the first film. I’m not saying there weren’t plot twists, but it was really predictable in a lot of what was going to happen next. The script wasn’t nearly as clever as it could have been. Not funny enough. It wasn’t on the level of the first movie. It just wasn’t. Next, adding plot twists down the stretch. Okay, this got bad. It seemed really over the top. You can only add so many plot twists, and after a while, it gets stupid. And it really did. It reeked of reaching for shock value, not realism. It’s like, look, we didn’t write a funny enough script. We didn’t write a good enough movie. We didn’t do well enough. And so what we’re going to do is have, oh, you thought it was this one? No, it’s that one. You thought it was that one? No, it’s this one. Oh, now it’s going to be someone you never would have imagined. I don’t know. Now Moses comes out of Israel and he’s the guy with the hook. It was dumb.
SPEAKER 06 :
Hmm.
SPEAKER 04 :
It got dumb down the stretch. Just exaggerated, silly. I literally chuckled while I was watching this horror movie in a theater. There’s a lesbian, a pretty intense lesbian segment that is added for literally no reason at all. No connection to the story. It’s just agenda. And they just put it in there. And finally, some of the writing at the end is terribly weak. Just end the movie. I’m always… You didn’t see The Lord of the Rings, Return of the King. Return of the King ended like 27 times, I think. In fact, I’m not sure it has ended.
SPEAKER 03 :
It’s still going on.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, and they kept adding things and adding things. Well, they do that in this movie, and you’re just kind of like… Wrap it up. Wrap it up. Okay, I will now wrap it up. Rotten Tomatoes gave this movie 42%, so it came in at about two stars. Guess what? I agree. Quality, two stars, four. I know what you did last summer. Political, three. Didn’t say a thing. More religious, two.
SPEAKER 06 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 04 :
You know, just for adding a little content that you didn’t need. I think, honestly, and by the way, the lesbian relationship and character they add in just does nothing. It’s just gratuitous.
SPEAKER 03 :
It’s the token.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah. Now, getting back to the political… I suspect, because you had Sarah Michelle Gellar was in it also, and she is in real life Freddie Prinze Jr.’ ‘s wife. I don’t know if you knew this. I did not know that. She was the star for many years of Buffy the Vampire Slayer on TV. They are both solid Republicans, just so you know.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 04 :
I wonder if they played it down the middle and didn’t do the politics because they had two staunch Republicans on the cast.
SPEAKER 06 :
Hmm.
SPEAKER 04 :
I have a feeling that really weighed in because you’ve got these two Republicans who are going to sit there and raise an eyebrow if you’re doing this stuff. They’re probably looking at you and saying, look, look, look, we’re not asking you to make Rush Limbaugh’s memoirs for a movie here, but would you mind playing it down the middle? I suspect that happens. So at least when you go to this movie, you’re not going to get anything in your face. Nothing really annoying. It’s not bad. And so do I recommend going to I Know What You Did Last Summer? Well, let me tell you something. I know it sounds like I’m saying no, because it’s only two stars. But understand two and a half is average. This is not that bad of a movie. It’s not that bad. It’s just meh, okay? And it gets silly down the stretch, but I would say for the first two-thirds of this movie, I was looking at about a three, three-and-a-half-star movie. This was actually a pretty good movie. Then it tails off, and that’s what happens. So I don’t really recommend it.
SPEAKER 03 :
Other than the ending, it’s not bad.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, down the stretch, it really got weak. And then they do these almost outtakes that you’re just like, okay, you’re losing it. You’re… You lost it. You derailed, you know, 50 feet back through the train. Yeah, it derailed. Do I recommend going to it? No, I really don’t. But I also say this. It’s not a terrible movie. If you really like the nostalgia and you want to see this again, you’re not going to be too disappointed. There you go.

SPEAKER 04 :
And welcome back to Rush to Reason, Denver’s Afternoon Rush, KLZ 560, John Rush, together with Andy Pate and John! Are you ready for another movie?
SPEAKER 03 :
Are there seven Smurfs? Or is that the dwarfs?
SPEAKER 04 :
I know. There are a lot of Smurfs.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay, lots of Smurfs.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yes, there are a lot of Smurfs. Okay.
SPEAKER 03 :
In Smurfdom. In Smurfdom.
SPEAKER 04 :
Smurftopia? I have no clue. Smurf wherever. Smurfopolis? There you go. Okay. Well, it’s time for Little Blue People bringing the laughs in the latest reboot, Smurfs. This July.
SPEAKER 07 :
Come on. We got to rescue Papa. To save their world. Run away. Let’s go. They must come. Two hours. Whoa.
SPEAKER 01 :
Where are we? It’s Paris.
SPEAKER 1 :
Get out of the way.
SPEAKER 07 :
I’m Papa Smurf’s brother. You Smurfs don’t know Smurf about Smurf. I can Smurf that Smurf up and have it delivered to your house. That sounds like a load of Smurf. Hey, stick a Smurf in it. They will face new villains. This is the handiwork of the evil wizards Gargamel and his brother Rosamel. We’re going to play a game called let’s squish a Smurf till all you Smurfs are squashed. That doesn’t sound like a fun game. Game up with new allies.
SPEAKER 01 :
We’re the International Neighborhood Watch Smurfs. Paris Division.
SPEAKER 07 :
And take adventure. It’s time for you to find out what a Smurf really is. To a whole new dimension.
SPEAKER 05 :
What’s happening? Hang on!
SPEAKER 07 :
That was absolutely terrifying. I think I swallowed my gum.
SPEAKER 02 :
Food delivery for Rosamel the Wizard.
SPEAKER 01 :
So you can just order any kind of food from anywhere. Absolutely. Just make sure you tip the driver ahead of time or they’ll lick everything.
SPEAKER 03 :
All right, John, what do you think? Smurfs. Where did the Smurfs come from originally? Were they a cartoon or were they little stuffed animals? Cartoon. Cartoon, okay.
SPEAKER 04 :
All right. Well, let’s get some of the cast out of the way up front. Rihanna, she’s wonderfully talented. She stars as Smurfette. James Corden is no-name Smurf, a big character. John Goodman is Papa Smurf. Kurt Russell is Ron. Nick Offerman is Ken. J.P. Karliak plays both villains, Rosamel and Gargamel. All right, we begin with Smurfette, leading an intro song where various Smurfs give their names and how it defines each of them. It’s basically the seven dwarves, but let’s not bring that up. Okay. Well, it’s kind of interesting. They have so many, and it gets a little funny at times. Out-of-focus Smurf, that’s kind of good. Then they have one that is sound effects Smurf. So, you know, they have a little bit of fun with it. Well, unfortunately, no-name Smurf has no discernible skill, so he feels left out. Hey, maybe he can get on the Burisma board in Ukraine.
SPEAKER 03 :
I’m just saying.
SPEAKER 04 :
It might work. It’s been done before.
SPEAKER 03 :
Joe Biden’s staff.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah. But then he does get a skill, and it is magic. Well, this is important to Rosamel and Gargamel, who want the magical power to control the world and the universe. There are actually four different magical books that are out there, incantuses they’re called. And three, the evil group that they work with. That group already has three of them, but there’s one more. And the Smurfs were supposed to protect it, and now they think they can get it from them. Alright, in their great plan, they capture Papa Smurf and hold him for ransom. So now Smurfette and No-Name must lead their fellow Smurfs to rescue Papa Smurf. This entails more than just going cross-country, but actually going cross-dimension. Going from two-dimensional to three-dimensional and back again. Not a new concept, but hey, you got music. So why not? Can they rescue Papa Smurf? Can no name get a name? And can we all learn about our true value in a world of labels, evildoers, and musical numbers? And that is the story of Smurfs. What do you think, John?
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay. Probably not my movie, but okay.
SPEAKER 04 :
You’ll go three times. All right, here we go.
SPEAKER 03 :
Sure I will.
SPEAKER 04 :
Sorry.
SPEAKER 03 :
To the bathroom while it’s on. Yes. There we go.
SPEAKER 04 :
Probably. What works in Smurfs? Well, the action is pretty fast-paced.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 04 :
And got a little bit of good music. I’ll get to that in a moment. The first quarter of this movie was very solid. I thought it was two and a half, three stars for the first quarter of this movie. There’s a very good song for No Name. And I actually wish the song would have gone a little longer. It was a ballad, and he’s talking about how, who am I? What do I do? You know, what is my place? Almost like My Place in This World, right? By Michael W. So it’s pretty cool. There’s a nice message about everyone having a thing, a thing that they do. And that message is very similar to 1 Corinthians 12 talking about the body. You know, no one should say because I’m not this part of the body that I’m not part of the body. And this movie had that message, which I thought was good. Okay, what else works in Smurfs? Nothing. Zero. Zip. Zilch. Nada. Oh, my goodness. This is bad. Now, I will say this. Not since Wicked have I dreaded a movie this much. Even the previews look bad, John. Even the previews for this movie. And you know all the previews.
SPEAKER 03 :
I can’t argue that one.
SPEAKER 04 :
Right. Once again, for those who don’t know, the previews are generally not put out by the company. Maybe somebody who works there, right? But not so much by the people who made the movie. It’s by somebody who’s trying to sell the movie. So they’re piecing together what they can to make this movie attractive to viewers and get them in the seats. Mm-hmm. Even the previews didn’t look good. Now, what doesn’t work in Smurfs? Well, everything is just so tedious, John. Even for kids. I mean, this was just tedium. Adults will quickly tire of all the substituting of Smurf for various profanity. Gets old quick, and it stays old. And they keep doing it. The storyline is 100% formula and very painfully predictable. I mean, it hurts. It’s so predictable. The humor… It’s sporadic and at times just flat out cringy. I mean, really, it gets a little cringy at times. The 2D, 3D, you know, two-dimensional, three-dimensional stuff is okay for a bit, but not long. It gets old quick because they keep going back and forth. Now, let’s get into some really surprising things for me. Rihanna. Now, as you know, Rihanna is a tremendous young talent. Not very young anymore, but she’s a tremendous talent. Her voice doesn’t match Smurfette. It doesn’t work at all. You know, John, you can’t just plug in a star and say, make it work. All right? So we’re going to have this role. Let’s plug in a star and make it work. I was saying before the show today, you can’t have some, well, this is a really nice, good guy, wonderful, fluffy, cute character. Let’s plug in a star. Let’s get Jack Nicholson. I love Jack Nicholson doesn’t work right she doesn’t work at all she sounds far too urban adult she does folks I’m not talking about you know a race thing because she’s black doesn’t don’t care that’s not the point she sounds too urban and adult she really does she doesn’t fit the movie at all it’s a total misfire and She really could have just played it straight. That really would have helped the movie. I think about Mandy Moore, who was entangled. Mandy Moore can sing a variety of styles. She has a great voice. She played it straight. She talked like a girl. Because she was a girl. She played it very straight in the way she sung. Why? Because that’s the nature of the movie. She worked with what she had. She didn’t overwhelm it with herself.
SPEAKER 06 :
Mm-hmm.
SPEAKER 04 :
And that is what Rihanna does. It does not work at all. I mean, it is one of the biggest misfires.
SPEAKER 03 :
Really?
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah. The story goes in many directions, John. I mean, way too many. Too many characters. Too many twists. Too many, go over here. Okay, now we’ve got to add some action. So these fluffy little characters have this old car that they really run really fast in cross-dimensional travel and whatever. It’s just crazy. What is this, Buckaroo Bonsai? I mean, I don’t know if you’ve heard of that old movie, but it’s… Yeah, never mind. I won’t bore people. But, you know, you’re just… At one point, they’re envisioning Smurfs in every universe.
SPEAKER 06 :
Mm-hmm.
SPEAKER 04 :
All right. Even like Japan art. Oh, and I mean, every single kind. And you wonder, OK, are they doing it funny, though? Are they adding good lines? Are the kids into it? No, no, no, no. What do I always say is the worst thing you do with a kid movie, John? Is not make it funny enough. Yeah. Don’t bore the kids. Because the whole reason you go to these movies is to keep them happy. Yes. You’re giving them their fix. Right. Right. They’re going to be. That’s right. Because if it’s a really good movie. Kung Fu Panda or whatever, something like that. What are the kids going to be doing? Oh, they’re going to be buzzing about it the whole day and maybe a couple days. And it’s wonderful. And it’s like mom and dad scored, right? Not here. Not here. Now, I did something that I have only done twice now in less than a year, which is really incredible. I left early.
SPEAKER 03 :
Wow.
SPEAKER 04 :
I gave up. And I didn’t have too much time left. It’s just that, John, I’m dedicated to this show, but I’m not that dedicated.
SPEAKER 03 :
I hear you.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, you were saying yesterday you could retire if you need be at any time. Well, I thought about that.
SPEAKER 03 :
And you were like, that’s about time. It’s not fun anymore.
SPEAKER 04 :
Oh, my gosh. I was in pain. I was in agony. And my face was all red from slapping it to keep me awake. I just was like, this is boring. And like I said, the first quarter of this movie, you’re humming along, and it’s not a bad little movie, and I like No Name, and they’re having some fun with some of these different Smurfs and having a few sight gags with them that are working decently. Not great. Decently. But then, pretty soon you realize, this script sucks. It’s not well written. It’s not funny.
SPEAKER 03 :
And all that talent wasted.
SPEAKER 04 :
All that talent wasted. Yeah, I read the cast. Very talented cast. And by the way, the cast does a great job reading the parts. Rihanna does a great job. She’s just not a fit. I mean, she doesn’t fit at all. And once again, she could have. She played Rihanna. And it’s like, Rihanna, I’m sorry, but Smurfette is like a little girl-ish, or at least a very young woman character. I’m sorry, but Rihanna, you’re not young anymore.
SPEAKER 03 :
No, true. Good point.
SPEAKER 04 :
Okay, and Smurfette doesn’t sing songs in this urban feel. And it’s just like, I’m sorry, but this isn’t working at all. And it wasn’t. It bombed. This movie is going to, I think it’s going to do well for a week because, well, you know, come on.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 04 :
Kids want to see their Smurfs.
SPEAKER 03 :
They can take it no matter what.
SPEAKER 04 :
And also, look at the market. There’s no other kid films out at the moment. How to Train Your Dragon has run its course. There was another one that wasn’t very good. This isn’t going to do much. Okay. Rotten Tomatoes, they agreed with me. They said 21%. Wow, that’s low. Yeah. Now, for me, personally, this was zero stars. I’m not going to do that, though. I’m going to give it one star. Okay. And a couple reasons. First of all, once again, the first quarter, actually, the kids had a couple laughing moments that they enjoyed. Then they didn’t laugh the rest of the movie that I heard. I’m listening to the kids when I watch these movies, okay? And secondly, honestly, this movie just lost steam really bad and stayed that way.
SPEAKER 06 :
Hmm.
SPEAKER 04 :
But there was no name was a good enough character. I’m going to give it one star. The biggest reason is kids have such low expectations. Put funny, shiny things in front of them, and they’re generally happy. They don’t grasp a lot of these things. But there’s one last problem. John, because of that, you want to make a kid movie. You want to make the plot line as simple as possible. Did you ever see Up?
SPEAKER 03 :
Oh, yeah, great movie.
SPEAKER 04 :
Right. Up is a very long movie. It’s generally too long for kids.
SPEAKER 03 :
It was a great movie, though.
SPEAKER 04 :
But it was a great movie. Why? Was there any, you know, jumping all over the place with the plot? No. No. The plot is going in a straight line.
SPEAKER 06 :
Yep.
SPEAKER 04 :
Okay? Incredibles, straight line. Right? Cars, straight line. And you can have all these kind of different characters and have fun with them, but you’re not leaping over here, over here, over here. Right. That is not good for kids. Kids have a hard time following that. I don’t think they were following that. I don’t think it was good for them. Okay, quality one star. Political three, didn’t say anything. More religious, I’m going to say two, just with all the, you know, substituting Smurf for every kind of profanity you can think of. You know, no. Why don’t you leave that out? Why don’t you do just a touch of that and let it be funny for a moment and then move on? They didn’t. Do I recommend going to Smurfs? Oh, no, no, no. I do not. Now, your kids may demand it. And I’m serious, folks. I’m being totally serious. If your kids demand this, all right. Bring your phone.
SPEAKER 03 :
Because you’re going to be bored.
SPEAKER 04 :
Bring your phone. You’re going to be bored. Go with at least one parent so you can take churns. After the first quarter, you can take churns going out to the restroom. Concession stand, whatever. Yeah. Actually, you’re just going out to the lobby and looking at the news. There you go. Not a good movie. Don’t go to Smurfs. Wow, that’s sad. Yes.

SPEAKER 03 :
All right. I didn’t talk about this much during the week, but we just were during the break, and that is the Internet blew up this week. Actually, more so from this than the other topic we were talking about earlier. This was funny. The Coldplay concert where the head of HR, the lady, and the president or the CEO were caught on the kiss cam, and it wasn’t his wife. Let’s just say that.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, it was not his wife.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah, and the internet is just blowing up, and one of you guys as listeners, which this is pretty funny, said, well, I guess if there’s anything that comes out of that, it shows people still go to Coldplay concerts. It’s just actually pretty funny.
SPEAKER 04 :
Oh, there have been so many memes. I guess one says that Coldplay hasn’t had a new single in years, and they just made two.
SPEAKER 03 :
That’s hilarious. That’s good, actually. Oh, I thought. The Internet has just taken this thing and blown it up. Yeah. Poor guy. I mean, I don’t feel sorry for him because, you know, you’re going to go out in public. I mean, reality is, hey, you know, it’s all fair game at that point.
SPEAKER 06 :
Oh, yeah.
SPEAKER 03 :
So did you see his response to all of this? No, I didn’t. Basically said something to the effect of, you know, yeah, you know, I’ve been caught and that was really bad judgment on my part and, you know, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And I’m going to have to take some time to reflect upon, you know, where I’m at in life and what I need to do next. And please respect my privacy. And basically took a little jab at Coldplay saying I didn’t realize that, you know, my private life was going to be made public in this manner or something to that effect. He’s blaming Coldplay? Basically. Yeah, basically that’s what he did at the very end. They did it to him. It’s like, you dodo head.
SPEAKER 04 :
I wonder if she’ll get another HR job. I mean, she could have just said it’s intense counseling.
SPEAKER 03 :
She could have, I guess.
SPEAKER 04 :
I’m comforting an employee.
SPEAKER 03 :
I don’t know what their policies are, but I’m guessing that they’re probably different today than they were a few days ago.
SPEAKER 06 :
Yes.
SPEAKER 03 :
I mean, and then, of course, and then the entire Internet, because if you look at the picture of this lady, and I’m not trying to be derogatory here, but if you look at the picture of the lady versus the picture of his wife, the lady that he’s having the affair with definitely doesn’t look like his wife, and the Internet has basically said he’s trading down. Right, he traded down. Not up. Jeez. Sort of like old Prince Charles. Yeah. With Prince Diana. Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. And the new one, it’s like, yeah, he traded down.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, he traded down.
SPEAKER 03 :
Big time.
SPEAKER 04 :
Dude.
SPEAKER 03 :
Come on now. Camilla. Oh, Camilla, yeah. Come on, Prince Charles, you’re not real bright, are you?
SPEAKER 04 :
But Prince Diana, I mean, come on.
SPEAKER 03 :
Oh, man, he went from like a 10 to a 2. Now, don’t be that mean. Oh, I am. He went from a 10 to a 2. Absolutely. She is not an attractive woman.
SPEAKER 04 :
I’m going to have to ask my wife on this because she is totally into British royalty.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay, so Charlie Camilla, a 10 or a 2? Or a 5? Oh, come on, Charlie. Charlie said she’s a 0. Charlie won’t answer. It’s Camilla. It’s a 2 at best. Okay, come on. Those of you listening, tell me. What do you think of Prince Charles’ wife? Oh, great. Now we’re going to have the text line. Is it a two? Is it a five? Come on now.
SPEAKER 04 :
Now in the Rush to Reason text line.
SPEAKER 03 :
How ugly is Prince Charles’ wife? 307-200-8222. Just give me a number. That’s all you have to say. Now, is it Prince now or King or whatever? Well, he’s King, I think, now, right? King Charles.
SPEAKER 04 :
So how ugly is the queen? Okay, so this is what we’re asking. We have quality. This is a quality show.
SPEAKER 03 :
Let me just say this.
SPEAKER 04 :
We here at Rush to Reason are pure class.
SPEAKER 03 :
Now we want to know how ugly is the queen. Andy, you’ll understand this because you came out of the casino world. Yes, I did. The queen on the card looks better than her. Is that too rough? Okay, hang on. Maybe I should bring a picture up.
SPEAKER 04 :
You know, I got to say one thing. Now, look, look, this is pretty obvious. I would say America has a more attractive queen.
SPEAKER 03 :
Oh, geez, ours is a 10-plus.
SPEAKER 04 :
That’s not being fair. Ours is literally, you know, was a supermodel for years.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay, Queen Camilla. Is that how I’m saying it right? Queen Camilla.
SPEAKER 04 :
I wonder if she’s still hated because of how she got in this relationship.
SPEAKER 03 :
Well, that’s like another conspiracy. How did Princess Diana die?
SPEAKER 04 :
Well, word is, I mean, some say Diana was rather wild herself.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay, wait a minute. I don’t know. Hang on, hang on. I do not know. Hang on, I have pictures in front of me right now.
SPEAKER 04 :
Of Camilla? Are they flattering or mean? A two is a stretch. Do they write a beard on her?
SPEAKER 03 :
A number two is a stretch, folks.
SPEAKER 04 :
You are so mean.
SPEAKER 03 :
I am not being mean.
SPEAKER 04 :
I’m looking at her picture. Okay, here’s my question. My wife just said she’s a zero. So you see her there together with Charles. My question is, can you tell which is which? It’s a little hard. You’re so mean.
SPEAKER 03 :
I don’t know Camilla. My wife said she’s a zero.
SPEAKER 04 :
I think I saw Camilla once, and she looked okay. Okay.
SPEAKER 03 :
No, she doesn’t. Oh, for a woman her age. Compared to Prince, compared to. John, she’s not 22, okay? I mean, come on. Well, she wasn’t that good looking when she was 22. I don’t know. John and Cheyenne, go ahead. You’re next.
SPEAKER 09 :
I’m laughing. Well, we used to have a saying in the military. Now, at the center of most military bases is the post headquarters, base headquarters, and the flagpole.
SPEAKER 04 :
Right.
SPEAKER 09 :
And we used to have a saying. Keep your indiscretions 100 miles from the flagpole. This guy didn’t learn that lesson.
SPEAKER 04 :
No, he did not. No. And, you know, probably off camera. I mean, everybody knows they got, John, everybody knows they got the kiss cam. Come on. Yeah. It’s panning the crowd.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah, they’re all over. Yeah. Well, I will say this, though. I blame the band. I will say this. I mean, how ironic, though, because out of the thousands of people that are there, and you’re in a box, and he and the girlfriend are now on the camera. It is terrible luck. That’s like the worst luck ever. That dude run from that guy.
SPEAKER 04 :
Especially since, let’s face it, aren’t they going to be looking generally for younger couples?
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah. Usually. But they were like, he had his arm around her and stuff, so I’m guessing they figured that they were already on their way to the kiss cam, so let’s show those two. Am I right, John? That’s probably what they were thinking.
SPEAKER 09 :
Oh, this is just, this guy’s screwed. Okay, really quick.
SPEAKER 04 :
My wife, by the way, my wife just texted in. John is right. Damn! That’s not fair. My wife hates Camille. Thank you. My wife is so into the Royals.
SPEAKER 03 :
In all fairness, I even went back and looked at younger year pictures. I think she’s prettier now than she was then. She’s lucky to be a two.
SPEAKER 04 :
Well, John, back then she was a man.
SPEAKER 03 :
Oh, jeez. John.
SPEAKER 09 :
You sound like Candace Owens with the French. Going back to the couple and him going down. I’ve seen that a lot, though, where guys just have – they just can’t – they don’t have any honor, I say. They just cheat on their wives all the time, and it doesn’t matter. They could be married to a seven, and they’re dating someone who weighs 700 pounds. Right? Yeah.
SPEAKER 03 :
This show is going downhill on a Friday. We jumped the shark. We’re going downhill.
SPEAKER 09 :
So how soon before they close us down? Camilla fell out of the ugly tree and hit every branch.
SPEAKER 03 :
Oh, man, she did. You were right about that, John. Absolutely. Absolutely.
SPEAKER 09 :
You guys are so mean. There’s a prime point, though. It happens a lot that there’s guys that just cannot… not cheat, and it doesn’t matter because Diana was a 9. A 10? She’s a solid 10.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 09 :
I don’t know if she was a 10.
SPEAKER 03 :
Oh, yeah, a solid 10.
SPEAKER 04 :
Well, she was, yeah. But, you know, guys, I have learned two things from this. First of all, well, three things. First of all, of course, I’m not going to sleep around. Secondly, I definitely won’t do it where there can be a kiss cam.
SPEAKER 03 :
My wife just said she’s the homeliest royal there is.
SPEAKER 04 :
But thirdly, I’m going to go home because I’m so hurt. I’m going to go home and take down my calendar of her because you’ve hurt my feelings. Oh, jeez. My Camilla calendar, which I ordered long in advance, it finally arrived, Corey.
SPEAKER 03 :
Now I don’t even want it. I’m sorry.
SPEAKER 04 :
Now I don’t even want it. I’m sorry, Corey.
SPEAKER 09 :
Andy, I’ve seen pictures of your wife. You married way above your pay grade.
SPEAKER 04 :
I know.
SPEAKER 09 :
Yes, I did. Well, you guys have a good day.
SPEAKER 03 :
You too, man. Appreciate you, John. No, have a good one. Yeah, so my wife said she’s the most homely British royal. Your wife probably would agree with that, given that she follows the royal family and all that. She’ll comment. She’ll tell you in a minute whether I’m right.
SPEAKER 04 :
But I thought all British women had bad teeth.
SPEAKER 03 :
Really?
SPEAKER 04 :
Well, except Diane. I don’t know. Was Diane British? She was, right?
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah. Yeah, yeah. They married a Brit? She was actually a royalty before that, right, Charlie? Made her the princess. I thought she had some royal blood prior to that. Yeah, that’s what I thought. She was related or something. I’d have to go. Guys, this is way above my pay grade. I am not a loyal family expert by any means.
SPEAKER 04 :
Oh, me either. I know nothing. My wife starts talking about them, and she is so far over my head. I have no clue. These people. I do know that South Park did a phenomenal. South Park? Oh, yeah. They tore into, golly, was it Prince Harry, I think, and his annoying wife?
SPEAKER 06 :
Mm-hmm.
SPEAKER 04 :
And the two of them always always claimed that they wanted their privacy. And yet they had to be in the in the news constantly.
SPEAKER 03 :
Then South Park had fun. Go ahead. So before we take a break, she was she was born into British nobility and grew up close to the royal family. This is Princess Diana living at Park House on their Sandra. How am I saying this right? Sandra Gamm estate in 1981 while working as a nursery teacher’s assistant. She became engaged to Charles, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. So she did have some British nobility prior to entering into the family.
SPEAKER 04 :
John, I wonder what that’s like. I mean, look, marriages, some marriages, they go under. And that’s part of life. But to be that much in the public eye, to be royalty for a nation, what must that be like?
SPEAKER 03 :
Well, she actually, I thought, did very well, but the rest of the royal family I don’t think ever liked her.
SPEAKER 04 :
Oh, really?
SPEAKER 03 :
They didn’t like Diane? Ask your wife. I think that’s part of the problem. Yeah, I think that was part of the issue. They never liked her.
SPEAKER 04 :
I will have to ask my wife. I guarantee she knows. So there you go.
SPEAKER 03 :

SPEAKER 03 :
Live and local, back to Rush to Reason. Okay, so I broke my cardinal rule that Charlie reminded me of because I normally don’t talk bad about women’s looks and so on, no matter who it is. But I couldn’t resist in this case because she is one of those women, publicly speaking, public women, that I personally just never have liked. I think she was a lot of the reason why things happened with Princess Diana in the first place, and I just can’t stand the woman. I think she’s a homewrecker. I think she’s ugly. I think she’s a disaster.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, apparently she’s a homewrecker.
SPEAKER 03 :
And your wife agrees with me, by the way.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yes, my wife agrees. Honestly, I’m not defending her. I don’t know anything about these people. So I will just agree with my wife, which is really a wise thing to do.
SPEAKER 03 :
Well, let’s just say that, and your wife will probably inform you of this.
SPEAKER 04 :
She’s an ugly homewrecker.
SPEAKER 03 :
She slid into the royal family and ended up with, let’s just say, a lot more net worth when it was all said and done than she had prior. He’s not stupid. Let’s just say that.
SPEAKER 04 :
So kind of like the Bidens and politics.
SPEAKER 03 :
Exactly.
SPEAKER 04 :
Oh, okay.
SPEAKER 03 :
Very much so. Yeah, very much so. Anyways. All right. Next hour. Give us our… Next hour.
SPEAKER 04 :
Okay. We’re going to be doing one hit wonders. This is a music hour. All right. So if you want to call in with any one hit wonders or text in your favorite one hit wonders. And once again, it doesn’t mean it’s the only… good song a performer or band ever made. It just means it was easily their biggest.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay. So they could have some other decent hit songs.
SPEAKER 04 :
Kind of, yeah.
SPEAKER 03 :
But they’re known for one big hit, right?
SPEAKER 04 :
They’re known for that one big. They’re a one-hit wonder because they only had one song that really hit it, really hit it big. Sound good?
SPEAKER 03 :
Works for me.
SPEAKER 04 :
Okay. Nothing by Camila.
SPEAKER 03 :
And by the way, a lot of you have already been texting in. And yes, I have added what you’ve texted already to the list. Some of them I don’t know that I’m going to fully agree with, but we’ll talk about those as we get into the next hour. But keep texting 307. 200, 82, 22, 307, 200, 82, 22. And yeah, so one hit wonders. And here’s what helps me as well, because some of these, some of what you’ve already even texted, I don’t know those songs. So there must have not even been great one hit wonders, but name of song. And if you can give us the artist as well, that helps me a little bit so that when I’m typing them in and we are reading them off later, people can kind of correlate according to that. Sounds good. So do it that way, and we’ll be in good shape. All right. Hour 2 is next. Don’t go anywhere. Rush to Reason. Denver’s Afternoon Rush, KLZ 560.
