Sardonicast 179: Golden Globe Noms, Queer, Lost in Translation

[@kneelanb1]

Egg-cember is the happiest I’ve heard Adum since Scoot passed. He would’ve laughed at that nonsense 😂

[@Blue.1889]

I wonder if they going to do oscar viewing without him or skip this year

[@Tyler.the.contentcreator]

RIP Ralph. It’s a shame he got Lost in Translation

[@JohnnyBurnes]

I specifically look for your comments now. Thank you Tyler. You're not a shame.

[@Ragnarok540]

Thank you for keeping Ralph alive through your comments.

[@stumbleswith40]

Look at me! Look at me!

[@daliilars3350]

Seriously I'm happy he doesn't join anymore. He seems like a shill.

[@billhaverchuck3745]

Queer is set in 1950s Mexico City but was shot almost entirely at Cinecittà studios in Rome, the same ones used for Gangs of New York.

[@danieltrevinoc]

Feels like a right choice, it would've been hard to capture 50s CDMX in this decade, which is why Cuarón shot on a set for Roma. Also, the establishing shots helped to the dreamlike quality of the film.

[@marco0o00o]

This was an insane year of music imo. Tyler, Kendrick, Charli, Clairo, jpegmafia, Magdalena Bay, Porter Robinson, Billie Eilish, Quadeca, and mk.gee all put out amazing projects. I’m probably gonna come back to this year’s music for the rest of my life

[@C.G.Jr.]

Absolutely. Typically, you can find any number of great indie albums per year if you know where to look - but the fact that so many small bands and indie artists were killing it AND most of the suff that was popular was just so damn good... it really leaves 2024 as one for the fuckin books

[@1997residente]

Linkin Park 🙏

[@clanofclams2720]

the whispering wasnt in the script, Bill Murray is definitely saying a real sentence and not gibberish

[@hchappy125]

Had to come finish this episode here because it cut off during the lost in translation discussion on Spotify??? Did anyone else have this issue?

[@tonywords6713]

15:43 To be fair the movie mostly focused on 70s Trump, which if you watch interviews doesn't even seem like the same person. He even uses the word "facetious" in one which is way above current day Trump (or his supporters) reading level 😂

[@HiKinetic]

Lost in Translation, one of my favorites. Ending is an homage to In the Mood for Love, whispering secrets, though directly whispered to her.

[@NateGH36O]

Hope you guys get to see The Brutalist soon. It’s crazy good

[@masterpieceoneday8321]

14:25 it’s kinda sad Alex didn’t catch the joke; but I did, Adam. I did.

[@boxwkw]

After seeing lost in translation I feel like it's time for the boys to finally delve into wong kar wai. In the mood for love has GOT to be recommended at some point 😭

[@Felik18]

Satoshi Kon is the GOAT! Let's GOOOO!

[@just2good]

no The Curse nominations for best tv 😔 (i mean the show is too cool for the golden globes)

[@friendlypup5650]

That was last year. Although it did get snubbed. Only Emma Stone got nominated for that (deserved)

[@azure5644]

Adam missed the point of the ending. The reason they included some of the sound of what he said is because it’s supposed to be “lost in translation”. It’s more unique than him just giving her a note because that doesn’t fit with the “lost in translation” theme as well. It’s not a cop out, it fits with the feeling of longing. There were two times people tried enhancing the audio to figure out what he said. One was “I have to be leaving now but don’t let that come between us” and the other was “go tell that man the truth”. I swear I saw an interview with Bill Murray where he said that it was the former but I can’t find it.

[@attackofthecopyrightbots]

Of course he did. Any time that he has to spend more than a minute convincing noone about why he thinks that way doesn't really help

[@lethelweapon5]

@@attackofthecopyrightbotswhat?

[@YMS]

I saw the "translation" and it's bullshit. Literally just people making things up and others falling for it.

[@lynchstan9745]

@@attackofthecopyrightbots….bruh what.

[@lynchstan9745]

Completely agree. No shade at Adum (nor Alex) since he didn’t care for the ending, but I’m surprised. I was super confident he’d dig it lol, though I’m mainly basing that on the fact that I love it and my opinions more often than not tend to overlap with his so I was expecting him to have a similar opinion to mine. S’all good though

[@spencerbacon]

The opening shot of Lost in Translation was actually Sofia Coppola. Not Johansson

[@Poetboyy]

Last film that made me cry: An Elephant Sitting Still. Just rewatched it. So heart-wrenchingly beautiful. Audiences participating with the experience is different from people talking and being on their phones. Legendary characters have cycled through tons of voice actors over time so I'm sure if they wanted to they could find an accurate voice

[@nanananananananananananana9430]

I love that film so much, even if it was also a task to watch. So ambitious and intense as a story. It's a shame it would be the very last the director would ever make.

[@SonicHaXD]

There's this really big buff horse guy in Black Myth: Wukong. I don't know if that'll motivate Adam or not XD

[@AkiDave]

It’d be interesting if you guys do the new Indiana Jones game and see how it holds up to the films, Troy Baker’s performance and etc

[@disgruntledcashier503]

If the Golden Globes actually cared about awards integrity, they would nominate Terrifier 3 for Cinematic and Box Office Achievement. Unlike Alien Romulus or Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, Terrifier 3 actually had a box office achievement (highest grossing unrated film ever made)

[@mexicounbloger]

It's beyond embarrassing the fact that Emilia Perez is Getting so much recognition, for being an awful fucking movie.

[@diegolopez7434]

Having seen the Brutalist in L.A, I feel like Adum is going to be very annoyed by how the movie ends, not just in terms of story but in the creative choices that Corbet makes

[@AlfredSoul]

I'm glad Adam said "The End" was disappointing; I missed it myself, because I also became sick during my local film festival and was beating myself up about that, because I was initially curious about it.

[@GreenYoshi265]

The Golden Globes nominations consistency and logic are approaching that of the infamous 420 Awards. Get Derek to host in 2026!

[@Firemandan86]

20:40 please see A Different Man! It’s really good dark comedy that didn’t get enough marketing from A24

[@henri3170]

1:51:07 Adam sneaking in another Rm Brown reference, you love to see it.

[@Pedrofconde]

Scarlett Johansson was 19 when Lost in Translation came out

[@elbowjuice2627]

1:48 I thought he said “Goon Part 2”

[@waywardlaser]

Lost in Translation is my all time favourite movie. God I hope they liked it. Edit: Oh nice. Honestly it was a movie I liked but didn't love at first but it only grew on me more and more with time. Not surprised Adum got a bit hung up on the ending lol.

[@spidermcjones6371]

It’s so annoying when he decides to nitpick the smallest details for 10 minutes straight. Just shutting down the discussion so he can rant about something that no one else seems to really care about

[@stevencoffin328]

​@@spidermcjones6371I've noticed Adum does that a lot when there is a trailer with no subtitles even if the dialog is super clear he'll just obsess over one unimportant sentence going "What did they say?!"

[@spidermcjones6371]

@@stevencoffin328 it would be nice if they didn’t have to spend 1/3 of the discussion about 1 minor unimportant detail that seemingly only bothered him

[@EricWoodend]

I rushed out to see Queer because I wanted to see something gay in a theatre, so I was satisfied.

[@ddash96]

Queer & Naked Lunch would be a perfect double feature

What I find funny about the globes noms is that “A complete unknown” is in the drama category when in 2006 “Walk the Line” also directed by James Mangold was nominated in the musical category

I would love you guys to talk about Her Story sometime, or the other games from that dev team, I think you could get a meaningful conversation from Her Story at least.

[@floraposteschild4184]

Maybe Heretic was put in with comedies because Hugh Grant starred. It had its droll moments. Give it a chance. You'll probably like it.

[@fromvault801]

I have a question but stopped reddit- What do you guys think of Zen Filmmaking? If you don't know it's basically people just shooting whatever they feel without a plan and cutting it together as a film. I fell down the rabbit hole of directors Donald G Jackson and Scott Shaw. They make nothing good and most have actors like Joe Estevez. But it's interesting seeing what people consider Art. Where the RollerGator fans at?

[@stevencoffin328]

Obscurist Lupa did a video about Scott Shaw years ago.

[@Poetboyy]

The Trap wasn't nominated for best musical/comedy? But it was an intentional comedy right?

[@jakexdilla]

I dunno if I’ll call it ugly crying, but I was crying a lot during Six Feet Under. “All Alone” in particular was just painful to watch on so many layers.

[@FlippySuper]

I like parts of Lost in Translation but I also think some of the scenes with Japanese people haven't aged the best.

September 5th feels like the most boring and obligatory "Let´s give it a nom so we can prove we are not anti-semitic" ever. I bet Challengers won´t be nominated for best picture at the oscars, but that thing will.

[@garysnyder4537]

I honestly feel like it’s more the voting body for the Golden Globes consists of a lot of journalists but even then it getting in and picture being it’s lone nomination is really weird

[@gracechan3039]

Just saw queer and just didn’t like this at all. I need to empathize with at least one character on the screen to be into the movie. Being told to sympathize with creepy Daniel Craig through the score felt irritating. I can not sympathize for someone who would feel up a seemingly passed out person. Don’t tell me what to feel.
