The Gray Man Pitch Meeting

Step inside the pitch meeting that led to The Gray Man!

Netflix has been absolutely churning out content over the past few years, and seem to have settled on a formula that works for them. Attract massive names by paying them a ton of money, and then let those big names draw people to the platform. Oh and also make a movie. After the success of movies like Red Notice and Extraction, Netflix is back with another original action movie, this time starring Chris Evans, Ryan Gosling and Ana de Armas.
The Gray Man does raise some questions though. Like why don’t any of these people kill each other when given the chance? Why do Sierra Six’s mentors keep blowing themselves up to buy time? How does Six plan to escape with Claire when she has a trackable pacemaker? What’s with the 10,000 drone shots?
To answer all these questions and more, step inside the Pitch Meeting that led to The Gray Man! It’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience.

I have no words for how stupid the whole "traceable pacemaker" thing was. I do appreciate how Ryan pointed out it means rescuing her was pointless, since they could always track her down through the magic pacemaker tracer.

[@alexdoan273]

I mean, they could probably deal with that somehow after rescuing her, or put her in a faraday cage lol

[@StewartFletcher]

The irony of this entire film is that the concept of "a small, gray man" is to have field operatives be entirely unremarkable physically. Not too tall or too short. Not too fat or too fit. Not too ugly or handsome. So they are fairly impossible to recognize and never draw attention. To cast Ryan Gosling, Sexiest Man of the Year 20whatever is just hilarious. Should've cast Paul Giamatti or, if you want young, Jake Johnson.

Fun fact: The only Mission Impossible movie where Ethan Hunt is not a rogue agent fighting bad agents from his own faction, is Mission Impossible 2, where he actually does follow the mission, to Stop a rogue agent fighting bad agents from his own team (where have I heard that before?), until he realizes he's being used, and goes rogue to still stop the rogue agent fighting bad agents from his own faction: but to do it on his terms! Which is fascinating, because IMF teams appear to have zero oversight or rules of engagement anyways, and full autonomy - so the need to constantly go rogue shouldn't even make sense in this franchise.

Nice video! One thing I thought was weird was that the ending kinda implied that Six became Claire’s unofficial guardian? But they would have to spend their lives on the run and the stress that comes with that lifestyle probably wouldn’t be good for her heart condition. Also, Claire doesn’t have any living relatives. So the only reasonable explanation for someone to use her as a hostage would be to manipulate Six. But if Six had gone back to prison like they’d planned, there’d be nothing to manipulate him about so she’d be safe.

As someone who read the novel, I was very disappointed that the film didn't have in it the most American sentence ever written in 21st century fiction: "Inside was a Barrett M107, a fifty-caliber rifle that fired shells half the size of beer bottles and dispatched the heavy bullets with a muzzle velocity of nearly nine football fields a second."

I like how seemingly the vast majority of movies and TV shows always have a situation that's hard /almost impossible to manage or escape from but there's always the "Actually its gonna be super easy, barely an inconvenience!" moment. Gotta love plot conveniences/contrivances.

[@grandetaco4416]

this is spot on. The part where he chooses to do hand to hand combat over just taking the bad guy out is what got me. Really? you want the potential of dying or getting life threatening injuries over escaping? Even the movie was smart enough to realize he would at least end up captured because of this decision.

[@KayD]

My fave was when captain America didn't kill gosling when he had a gun pointed at him. Then, maybe 30mins later he says the line 'how hard is it to shoot someone??' Gee... cap... you tell me??

I love watching these videos right after I see a movie. Ryan is brutal as he picks apart all the loose ends and shortcomings in films. I have to agree with all of the points he makes, even when it's a movie I enjoyed.

[@DirtySouthJR]

Yeah when he butchered the LOTR trilogy almost had me thinking I should be in my feels a little bit but instead was agreeing and laughing the entire time. Ryan is the opposite of the "Cinema Sins style" of wildly throwing as many things as you possibly can into a video whether they are valid or not.

[@CorePathway]

He’s not wrong. Either of him. 🤣

[@caspiansfriend]

So, Ryan, today what I had for breakfast was toast. With peanut butter. ... And a little coffee. That's pretty nutritious thanks to the coffee. Anyway, you're right! Nobody stopped me from posting this. (well, I suppose you could delete it when I'm not looking and that's like stopping me). Great Pitch Meeting, as always! Thanks!!

@@benjackson8511 exactly. I liked it. It didn't take itself serious. They knew what movie they were in

[@eldorados_lost_searcher]

@@BrianHartman It's like in Dr Strangelove, where Peter Sellers is playing the President, while George C Scott is over the top in his delivery. The biggest laugh I had was after Gosling landed from the plane breaking up, and the body of the guy whose parachute he'd hijacked is still suspended from the rock formation overhead, while Gosling is playing it off as just another Thursday. I'm not saying that The Gray Man is at the level of Strangelove, but it's a precedent.

[@jaimeruiz7837]

I mean… it’s pretty fucking obvious this movie was made to just entertain.

[@HankBukowski]

It's a comfort not knowing any new actors. I hope to forget almost all the rest in time.

[@aidonis98]

I enjoyed this movie from a popcorn perspective. It was fun, Gosling and Evans were fun, the action was fun. Was any of it remotely believable? No. I imagine the pitch was "Hey, what if Jason Bourne was too realistic?" When he took a knife through the hand, and then proceeded to have a fist fight like nothing was wrong, I nearly noped out. Then the end fight happened, and suddenly the Lone Wolf stuff seemed totally plausible. LoL
