Good morning.
>> Wendy:Good morning.
>> Bridget:I'm Bridget.
>> Wendy:And I'm Wendy.
>> Bridget:And this is Flickin Beans. You know what I hate?
>> Wendy:The rain.
>> Bridget:Yeah.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:No, I like looking at it. And I like the way it smells and I like the way it sounds, but if it touches my skin.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:It makes me cringe.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:Yeah.
>> Wendy:We've had a rainy June.
>> Bridget:Yeah.
>> Wendy:I feel like it hasn't stopped raining the whole month. It's been really fun to try to keep up with all the yard work while it's been. Mud puddle.
>> Bridget:Oh, right. Yeah. It's terrible.
>> Wendy:I'm over it. I don't want to do yard work anymore.
>> Bridget:I miss yard work.
>> Wendy:Really?
>> Bridget:Yeah.
>> Wendy:It's like. Okay. I don't mind, like, being outside and things like that. It's just there's so much of it.
>> Bridget:Yeah.
>> Wendy:It's constant.
>> Bridget:Yeah.
>> Wendy:And I want to go do other things.
>> Bridget:Yeah. You know, that was kind of my happy place, though, Digging in the dirt.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:But.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:It never ends. Sometimes it's just not. You down.
>> Wendy:Yeah. It's not. Come over it. Maybe move into a condo.
>> Bridget:Yeah.
>> Wendy:Move into our rv.
>> Bridget:Let's just get right into it.
>> Wendy:Okay. I'm sure we have plenty of fodder for this. This is so great.
>> Bridget:Our movie this week.
>> Wendy:Xanadu 1980. Currently streaming on Prime.
>> Bridget:Xanadu.
>> Wendy:Joel woke up this morning singing it.
>> Bridget:Yeah.
>> Wendy:Oh, right. It got stuck in his head.
>> Bridget:It. Yeah, It'll do that.
>> Wendy:Yeah. I was excited when you suggested this movie. Cause I have always wanted to see it, but I just never have. And I know. Knew very little about it other than it was, like, famously bad and it had Olivia Newton John in it, but I didn't know it had Gene Kelly in it.
>> Bridget:Right.
>> Wendy:That was a surprise. It was so funny.
>> Bridget:And then that means it's gonna have tap dancing.
>> Wendy:Yeah. It was such a mix of. Well, that was intentional, I'm sure, between, you know, Gene Kelly's era of dance and the 80s.
>> Bridget:Right.
>> Wendy:Rock and roll in quotes. It was a parody of rock and roll. It was rid.
>> Bridget:Okay, well, let's get to our main character, who, for some reason, I always thought was Andy Gibb.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:Not Barry Gibb. Joking it up on the Barry Gibb talk show. Talk about chest hair. Talking about crazy gold medallions.
>> Wendy:I don't know who that is.
>> Bridget:Really.
>> Wendy:No, really, really.
>> Bridget:That was one of Jimmy Fallon's characters.
>> Wendy:Okay.
>> Bridget:When he was on snl.
>> Wendy:Oh, okay.
>> Bridget:But Andy Gibb is a brother, but not one. The Bee Gees.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:He was a singer on his own and a heartthrob Gotcha. But this guy. That's not who that is.
>> Wendy:No.
>> Bridget:He didn't even get top billing. Gene Kelly did. Yeah, L.A. gene Kelly. This guy. Of course, this killed me. Another artist.
>> Wendy:Another artist. And there really was no point in his job.
>> Bridget:No. Because I was like, oh, my God, this would be the best job for me. But also an unnecessary fantasy job.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:What he did was work for a record company in a. Like a basement painting studio with some other artists.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:And what they did was paint album covers bigger so that the record stores can hang them.
>> Wendy:Yes. As if printing doesn't exist.
>> Bridget:How did they make the record cover to begin with?
>> Wendy:Exactly.
>> Bridget:Come on.
>> Wendy:You can print a photo larger. There's no reason to be painting it at all.
>> Bridget:Oh, my God. And he was.
>> Wendy:Especially if you're just looking for an exact copy, which is what they wanted.
>> Bridget:Of course they could print things bigger. It wasn't like the Stone Ages.
>> Wendy:Yeah. They had billboards by this point. Right. They had billboards in the 80s.
>> Bridget:That was such a stupid job that I want.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:And he comes to work late and he puts on his painting smock. It's like a bathrobe. It's open in the front. What is going on there?
>> Wendy:Not helpful.
>> Bridget:It's so stupid.
>> Wendy:And that actor was just bad.
>> Bridget:Yeah. No, I was like. He has no facial expression. And I haven't seen an expressionless face like that since Kristen Stewart in Twilight.
>> Wendy:Okay.
>> Bridget:I can see.
>> Wendy:Yeah. Similarities there. He doesn't have very much emotion at all.
>> Bridget:No. And he's a whiner.
>> Wendy:His timing is weird.
>> Bridget:Yeah.
>> Wendy:It was not good.
>> Bridget:No, it was. Yeah. It was kind of the worst. It's like a total mannequin thing.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:Where he makes a wish. He tears up his drawing. I wish I could say dramatically. And it blows away in the wind. And his wish is going to be granted. It's also a Mary Poppins moment.
>> Wendy:Okay. We need to watch that.
>> Bridget:Yeah, we do.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:Because they tear up the letter and put it in the fireplace and it is carried by the wind, and it. It brings Mary Poppins into their lives.
>> Wendy:Cute.
>> Bridget:Okay.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:It's also about the women's right to vote.
>> Wendy:Okay.
>> Bridget:So there's this billboard with these women on it. Just whatever.
>> Wendy:Yeah. A billboard that they didn't need to paint. Right.
>> Bridget:And these are the. Maybe it was the Seven Sisters.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:Olivia Newton John is the muse of song and dance. And that muse is named Terpsichore, but she's going by Kira. But in the. In the ancient myths.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:She's Terpsichore. I did look up how to pronounce it.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:Because I was pretty sure. But it looks like terpsichore.
>> Wendy:I am terrible at pronouncing things. We know this. Yeah.
>> Bridget:So I know you looked at me funny when I said that.
>> Wendy:I just. I'm having trouble, like, I couldn't say it back to you right now. I was trying to, like.
>> Bridget:Really? Yeah. Terpsichore.
>> Wendy:Terpsichore.
>> Bridget:Yeah.
>> Wendy:Okay.
>> Bridget:You're fine, woman.
>> Wendy:I was just trying to, in my head, know how to say it,
>> Bridget:obviously. What? Who is it?
>> Wendy:Zeus.
>> Bridget:Their father.
>> Wendy:Yeah. It oddly like we get a little bit of the muse mythology in the beginning, but they don't really explain it. Then you go most of the movie, and then she finally just has a monologue and explains that she's a muse. Like, with 30 minutes left to go. Yeah. It's really confusing.
>> Bridget:Stupid.
>> Wendy:They should have brought it up before that.
>> Bridget:That's another mannequin moment. Because wasn't she supposed to be Egyptian?
>> Wendy:Oh, my God. Yeah. Through all the time.
>> Bridget:Oh, my God. So, yeah, they're all coming to life to the song I'm Alive. You know that one?
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:Yeah. Okay.
>> Wendy:And the whole soundtrack is primarily electric light orchestra. Oh, that's who did most of it. And then there's a few that are just Olivia Newon songs, but. Yeah. Elect Electric Light or Crystal. Nice.
>> Bridget:Nice. When they come out and start dancing for the longest time, they have that, like, hot pink glow.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:What the h***?
>> Wendy:I don't know. Supposed to make them ethereal.
>> Bridget:Right.
>> Wendy:And she also Kira and the other sisters, but you don't see them as much. She comes in and out of being able to see her. Sometimes she's transparent and sometimes she's invisible. And sometimes she's completely there. I guess they're trying to show she's not human. I don't know. But then other times, she's glowing. Which one is it?
>> Bridget:I feel like it took every 80s trope and magnified and amplified and made all the things longer than necessary.
>> Wendy:Oh, everything was so much longer than necessary. Musical numbers. Every single one was too long.
>> Bridget:Yeah. Oh, awful. And you had to, you know, get through the bad dancing. Oh, my God.
>> Wendy:Yeah, That's. The dancing was not good.
>> Bridget:Yeah, most of it. Like, when Olivia Newton John is singing, she's doing, like, some modern dance kind of flowing arm movements. Oh, it's hard to sit through.
>> Wendy:And the group numbers could have been really cool, but they weren't in sync.
>> Bridget:No.
>> Wendy:Hardly ever.
>> Bridget:They were just all doing their own Thing.
>> Wendy:And I'm like, is this because they weren't as good at dancing in 1980 or is this movie just bad? I imagine there probably is a little bit of people have just gotten better in the last 40 years.
>> Bridget:That's true.
>> Wendy:But I, I think it could have been better. I mean, if this was a different movie that Gene Kelly was in, the dancing would have been better.
>> Bridget:Yeah, it's pretty terrible. Oh, and I hated that scene when she danced with Gene Kelly.
>> Wendy:It went on for five hours.
>> Bridget:Yeah. And then ends with him like holding the air. Woo hoo. Coffee break. Let's talk about our beans.
>> Wendy:Are you enjoying Flickin Beans? Don't keep it to yourself. Spill the beans. Movies are better shared and so is coffee. Can you drop our pod into a friend's inbox? A group chat or just tell that cashier at your coffee shop that you love our podcast. A little worth of mouth goes a long way. Let's spill the beans. Thank you, bean flickers. Love you. Bye. Yeah, it was a little confusing too, because they kind of alluded to that their relationship was romantic, but it wasn't. But you kind of got the heebie. Or I did got the heebie jeebies a little bit when he was like, oh, now she's yours.
>> Bridget:Yeah.
>> Wendy:Like passing her off to the next guy.
>> Bridget:Right.
>> Wendy:And I don't like that.
>> Bridget:But I'm also sick of the, the storyline that goes, I love you, so we have to be together. Can't you love somebody without coupling? Can't you just have muse come in and then out of your life? Cause she said other people have dreams too.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:And she's timeless.
>> Wendy:Right.
>> Bridget:So it's like, like Bewitched. You're gonna take away all of her powers because, you know, you wanna make her mortal.
>> Wendy:The Little Mermaid.
>> Bridget:Yes.
>> Wendy:She gets gives up her voice so she can have legs. Yeah, yeah. Giving. And of course it's the woman that has to give up everything, not the man. Like they couldn't do it the other way somehow. I don't know. You can't always help who you fall in love with. But like, what about this guy was so. She's lived for millennia. She's been the muse for like, I would have way fallen in love with Gene Kelly over this dude.
>> Bridget:Right. Like, I don't know, he's such a dud.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:And I was thinking during one of the scenes where they're roller skating, one of the many. Would you be kind of turned on if a guy rolled up to you on skates and turned around to flirt you. Is that sexy?
>> Wendy:I don't think so. I think there's something to sexy, like, along with dancing, I guess. Like, if you're good at roller skating and you can move, well, there's something attractive about that in particular. But I don't think the roller skates add anything to it.
>> Bridget:No.
>> Wendy:And the roller skating was not good either. I felt like Olivia was always this close to falling.
>> Bridget:Oh, God. Yeah.
>> Wendy:And actually, Gene Kelly was the best skater, even though he's, like, in his 60s in this movie, but he's the best of everything in this movie. But there's dance troops now that only perform on roller skates.
>> Bridget:Oh, I want to join.
>> Wendy:Really?
>> Bridget:Cool.
>> Wendy:Like, I was thinking about this dance competition they used to have maybe, like, 20 years ago on MTV that the Jabbawockis came from. If you're familiar with that dance troupe. Their competition also had this other dance troupe that was all on their roller skates, and they would do, like, gymnastic kind of stuff, flips and things like that. And I'm like, this movie needed that. Instead of a bunch of people that were okay.
>> Bridget:Oh, my God, though, in that scene where they meld the two musical styles and they've got too many extras.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:It's like a f****** circus. Then some guy in, like, ballet tights does a. Splits on the tightrope.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:And his gross package is, like, hanging down over.
>> Wendy:Yeah. That whole last scene, which lasts, like, 20 minutes. No musical number should be that long.
>> Bridget:No.
>> Wendy:And they just decided, like, how can we get the most people and the most costume changes into this? And. And at one point, they. They burst into a country number for no fricking reason. They've. Nobody's talked about country music until now, and now they're doing a hoedown. What's happening? And Olivia Newton John's Australian country accent. So bad.
>> Bridget:Oh, God. Oh, my God. She was appealing at the time, though. All the boys and girls, you know, looked up to her because she' Fresh face.
>> Wendy:Sure.
>> Bridget:She seems sweet. She had ribbons in her hair.
>> Wendy:Yeah. They played up the, like, femininity.
>> Bridget:We used to make those. So you'd get the barrette, and then you would sort of braid in this ribbon, and then you'd leave it really long, and you'd put beads at the bottom.
>> Wendy:Okay. Yeah, yeah, I remember that.
>> Bridget:Yeah.
>> Wendy:I don't think I ever did that, but.
>> Bridget:Oh, my God, I made so many of those.
>> Wendy:I did have the big. The big bow clippings, for sure, which I think those are back. I saw some. A Young lady wearing a few of them. Wearing one yesterday. Oh. I'm like, okay, they're the big bows back.
>> Bridget:There you go.
>> Wendy:Yeah. But. Well, I get it. She's gorgeous and she can sing and she really does have a beautiful voice. I don't know that. The only point where I feel like it was really showcased, though, is when she has her solo, which also went on too long, by the way. It was just a single. I think it could have been that long, but it was a single shot. It was just her standing there singing by herself for the whole song. And you're like, you need to have some kind of change of perspective.
>> Bridget:Yeah, yeah, exactly. Throw in like a. What do you call it? A reflective memory scene.
>> Wendy:Yeah, something. A second camera. Something a second camera. At least show her from the side. I don't know.
>> Bridget:We're begging here. Do you know something that is wild about Olivia Newton John?
>> Wendy:Okay.
>> Bridget:Her husband went missing and when they finally found him, he had faked his own death. Can you imagine? I hope it wasn't because she's a
>> Wendy:b**** or something to get away from her. No, he probably did something shady and was trying to hide. Yeah, that's what I'm guessing.
>> Bridget:It was kind of hot, though. Asian. Yeah, Asian fusion.
>> Wendy:I don't know who her husband is. Do you know his name?
>> Bridget:No. He wasn't like a famous person.
>> Wendy:Gotcha. So I thought it was interesting. I looked up what Xanadu was because I wanted to know the name.
>> Bridget:Hey. And you just said Jabberwocky, which is also a poem.
>> Wendy:Is it a poem? Yes. Yeah. The Xanadu is a part of a poem called Kubla Khan is the name of the poem they recite it in Xanadu.
>> Bridget:Kublai Khan, a stately pleasure dome decree.
>> Wendy:Yes.
>> Bridget:Yeah.
>> Wendy:Why that? Why was that picked when this movie. Because it's Chinese in origin. Kubla Khan was a dictator ruler in a dynasty in China. And Xanadu was the capital of this place. Why did they pick that as the name and the place when this is about Greek mythology?
>> Bridget:But the letters look so cool.
>> Wendy:They do. I mean, it's a great name, but it just doesn't to me. Other than the fact that they recite the poem, it has nothing to do with anything else.
>> Bridget:I have no idea.
>> Wendy:That's kind of par for the course in this movie, though. Doesn't really make sense.
>> Bridget:Oh. Neither does the Jabberwocky poem.
>> Wendy:I don't know that one. Do you know it from memory?
>> Bridget:No. And I only know the first line of that one. But I remember studying the f****** poetry.
>> Wendy:Yeah. I. Oddly enough, even though I like, love songwriting and I think of that as poetry and stuff, I've had a hard time ever getting into it. I need somebody to tell me what the rhythm is of the words.
>> Bridget:Okay.
>> Wendy:Yeah. I need iambic pentameter.
>> Bridget:Oh, we love iambib pentameter. That's my favorite. You know what else was stupid? Was like a whole CSI thing. Because he's obsessed with this woman before he ever really speaks to her.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:And when she shows up, surprises him behind him at the studio, he isn't startled. He isn't, like, enamored. He just kind of keeps painting while he's talking. It's like you keep stacking crates while they're. The cops are asking you questions.
>> Wendy:Yeah. Because you didn't have any emotional rage.
>> Bridget:Oh, it was so weird. Everything went on too long. But that would be a cool place to go skating.
>> Wendy:Yeah. This movie did kind of make me want to go roller skating. I haven't been in so long. I used to love it. I used to rollerblade, too. But then it got too painful to fall down.
>> Bridget:Oh, yeah. You're not supposed to do that.
>> Wendy:I know, but you do.
>> Bridget:I remember Portia going. What do you mean? You're practicing stopping. Don't you just roll into the grass? No, I'd rather not. Yeah, it's not that cool.
>> Wendy:Just straight into the curb.
>> Bridget:Oh, God, no. It's not easy, but I can. I can do it.
>> Wendy:Yeah, I used to be decent at it, but I haven't done it in years. I just. Yeah, I'm too nervous now of hurting myself.
>> Bridget:That's what happens.
>> Wendy:Fragile. Getting fragile.
>> Bridget:Oh, my God. Speaking of fragile, that hummingbird documentary you were saying something about nervous about their tiny little bones.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:The smallest one that there is weighs what a penny weighs. Yeah. And it was crazy. There's so much evolution. They have ones with little hooked beaks because they only fit in this one flower.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:Oh, that's nuts.
>> Wendy:Okay. Where did you watch this?
>> Bridget:I'm gonna watch on tv.
>> Wendy:Okay. I'll find it.
>> Bridget:Might have been prom. It might have been Netflix.
>> Wendy:Okay.
>> Bridget:In the biggest one, they said it's almost as big as the large tit. And I'm like, good for you.
>> Wendy:Have you ever seen any of the videos of praying mantises attacking hummingbirds?
>> Bridget:No. The jerks.
>> Wendy:I know. I didn't know that that was something that they were capable of, but I guess it's pretty common. There's. They figured out that if they Hang on the bottom of, like, a hummingbird feeder. They don't see them, and then they attack them and they eat them.
>> Bridget:Oh, my God.
>> Wendy:A praying mantis.
>> Bridget:Well, it serves them right that they get their head chewed off after they mate.
>> Wendy:Yeah. Well, this would probably be the. The woman doing it because all the dudes are dead, Right? I think.
>> Bridget:Don't know.
>> Wendy:The ladies are a lot bigger and capable of killing a hummingbird, but, yeah,
>> Bridget:it's a thing that sucks.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:You know, my cat got one.
>> Wendy:A hummingbird.
>> Bridget:Yeah. It was the saddest little thing ever.
>> Wendy:He told me about the bat, but I didn't know they got a hummingbird.
>> Bridget:He's a killer.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:Ugh. Murray. Oh, I was too slow with my camera on the deck. He was sleeping with his head against the flower pot that I have rosemary in.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:And I was gonna put rosemary.
>> Wendy:It would be a mistake to not mention that there's also one scene that's animated for some f****** reason. Oh, God.
>> Bridget:Oh, my God. You are so right. That was. Oh, my God. Why? I don't know.
>> Wendy:It all of a sudden turned into a Disney movie where they were a fish and then a bird. It reminded me of Sword in the Stone. Have you ever seen that? Absolutely. Where they kept changing animals and their squirrels for a while.
>> Bridget:Yeah.
>> Wendy:That's what it was like. It was even animated. Right. In the same kind of style.
>> Bridget:The animated creatures didn't look anything like them.
>> Wendy:No.
>> Bridget:Like, remember when was it Futurama where they were salmon swimming upstream?
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:Yeah. You could tell who was who.
>> Wendy:Yeah, true. They just made, like, a girl one and a boy one. But they weren't like them. There was no point to that other than, I guess we're trying to think that they're in love from that scene.
>> Bridget:I'm not trying to say that every. Yeah. They're in love and everything is magical. You gotta believe in magic.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:To believe this movie.
>> Wendy:What? How does the song go? There's a song about magic in it, and it's one that show choirs do a lot.
>> Bridget:Oh, yeah.
>> Wendy:All I can think is the. Their Barry Manilow one was like, you can do magic.
>> Bridget:Yeah.
>> Wendy:You can have anything that you desire. But that's not it. That's Barry Manilow, isn't it?
>> Bridget:I don't know. Because the songs that are going through my head are so different because I'm going. Do you believe in magic in a young girl's heart? I think that became a pledge commercial or something.
>> Wendy:Yeah, that one's been used in a lot of commercials. I feel like God. Do you believe in magic? I do.
>> Bridget:I. I hate magicians. You know that about me.
>> Wendy:Magicians don't do magic, though. They do illusions. They're liars.
>> Bridget:They're liars.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:They're f****** liars. And I don't like it.
>> Wendy:I can't believe there wasn't a music or a musician. Was it a magician in this somewhere?
>> Bridget:Oh, my God.
>> Wendy:With all the side extras.
>> Bridget:That's what I like to do, is pay attention to the extras.
>> Wendy:Yeah, right.
>> Bridget:Oh, my God. I sent you that picture because I was listening to the congressional hearings.
>> Wendy:Yes.
>> Bridget:And yes, the guy that I was trying to think of is mentioned in that. But so I'm looking at it, and the guy that's talking is in focus, but the people in the row behind him are sharp focus. You know when you do, like, a teams meeting and you can make it look like everybody's in the chairs.
>> Wendy:Okay. Yeah.
>> Bridget:View gallery. View. Yeah, it was like that. And then that old lady, she was hazy. It was weird.
>> Wendy:Yeah.
>> Bridget:She was an alien. That was my theory.
>> Wendy:That's a good theory. Or we're dealing with another, like, deep fake. And all these congressional hearings are not completely real.
>> Bridget:That's what I was worried about.
>> Wendy:Yeah, I don't know.
>> Bridget:I don't know either.
>> Wendy:Now that. Now you've got me questioning it, I'm never gonna. I don't know. Are we ever gonna get to the truth about aliens? They're never gonna. Until it's like disclosure day when they rol. Live one.
>> Bridget:Oh, my God.
>> Wendy:But even then, like, if you're watching it on the news, like, I'm still gonna have suspicion about it. I don't know.
>> Bridget:Yeah.
>> Wendy:When will I ever believe it? I don't know.
>> Bridget:When will I know if aliens love me?
>> Wendy:RIP Whitney Houston.
>> Bridget:Oh, my God. Speak. Well, I am reading American Psycho. I don't think I've read a better book in forever. And it's different from any other book just because of his brain narrating it. And we discussed he's on the spectrum and a psychopath, but it's just almost stream of consciousness. And I just read a whole chapter where he goes on about Whitney Houston.
>> Wendy:Oh, yeah. Yeah.
>> Bridget:For real. It's such a good book.
>> Wendy:Okay, I'm gonna have to read that. I'm getting back into reading these days. I have a little more. So I've been enjoying it. I used to be, like, a voracious reader, like, all the time, but.
>> Bridget:Yeah.
>> Wendy:Get away from it.
>> Bridget:No, it's too much tv.
>> Wendy:Yeah. I do watch too much tv.
>> Bridget:I mean, there's too much to watch, and you get sucked in. Yeah. All right, well, are you ready to get your skates on?
>> Wendy:Yeah, let's go.
>> Bridget:Did we do it?
>> Wendy:I think we did it.
>> Bridget:We flick some.
>> Wendy:Beautiful. Okay, love you.
>> Bridget:Bye. Bye.
