Escape From Vault Disney (Podcast) #10: "Read It And Weep" (NEW EPISODES SEPTEMBER 2!)

[@doughboydevito4529]

27:30-28:10 This discussion abt sibling age gaps reminds me of how in "the sopranos" there's this 66 year old character named Phil Leotardo who has a 47 year old "kid brother" lol

[@katiemars7101]

I laughed way too hard at Tony calling himself the son of a “former pizza owner.” I, too, have formerly owned many pizzas.

[@marsmeetsearthproductions6279]

I love Charlie’s “announcer voice” every time he does that voice it sounds like he’s a smooth talker

[@BlueGuy98]

Can’t wait for the new episodes to come out!

[@moviemaestro800]

So glad that new episodes are coming in September. I always enjoy your content, and am thrilled that you've found a way to keep this series going in these difficult times. Goodness knows, preparing new content of any kind must be a strange new level of challenging, while America continues to be pretty damn plagued compared to even its Northern neighbour, where I reside. Not to mention, if any wholly new content were coming from you while there's still a global pandemic, this is about as best as we could reasonably expect, I'm sure. I'm so glad you've found a way to keep active in this fashion, while we all try to get through this, let alone in California. Here's hoping that making more of these will help you mentally, as well as the rest of us who watch and listen to you and your friends' chatter, as we will hopefully see better days come sooner than later. Goodness knows, I miss travelling already, for instance. Warm regards Tony! I hope that you're as well as you can be, all things considered, and I'm excited to come across more new content from you. You're one of my faves. ;)

[@floraposteschild4184]

Mine, too. Tony and pals are reminders of the many great Americans I'd be glad to meet if and when the border opens. Best wishes to you all, and stay safe!

[@weird_sin5909]

i really needed this guys. havent laughed this hard in a long long while. you guys are hilarious. love you all, hope all is well.

[@dragon1130]

I am so excited. New episodes return tomorrow. I really missed you guys. You're seriously one of like five youtubers who's older content I'll continue to watch over and over again.

[@CanIswearinmyhandle]

I had a problem were everytime a podcast episode got uploaded here I went "That's right I need to listen to this podcast" and then I immediately forgot about it! But! I have now listened to all episodes and am subscribed! Character development!

[@TheITinFIT]

I’m so excited for the podcast resuming! It’s kept me entertained through late-night work marathons and the pandemic. I’m going to marathon all the episodes leading up to September!

[@FireBlastStudios]

I'm excited to hear more from Tony and his friends, and also look forward to animating more excerpts in the future.

[@nataliekmaguire]

Can't wait for the new episodes, I've missed you guys so much

[@metropod]

To repeat something i found interesting that I said about this on Twitter when the episode was first released; the sister who didn’t stick with acting, Kay, went from one type of cast member on the Disney payroll, to another. She works (or at least worked, I don’t know if she’s still there) as a zookeeper at Animal Kingdom.

[@dannytheman1313]

Tony and the crew are back!!!

[@al.109]

Cant wait for the Splash Mountain State of the Parks!

I remember watching and at least liking Read It and Weep somewhat when it first aired, but I rewatched it a couple months ago and oooooooof.

[@DigiRangerScott]

I like shows that return in September! I look forward to finding out what the livetweet finale is!

[@sydneyagnew8748]

Okay, as someone who saw this movie when it came out, and someone who read the book after that out of pure curiosity, let me tell you that the movie is VASTLY different from its source material. The book is a cute little YA novel about a girl who's trying to live up to the superhero she's created (and that superhero ends up being more of a manifestation of her insecurities as opposed to some cartoonish villain she ACTUALLY talks to that makes her look insane??). There are a few mature themes for kids in there, though, like how to deal with fat shaming from a family member, how to deal with a best friend getting a new friend outside your circle, how a hate comment from a celebrity can really screw with your self-esteem--hell, there's even a subplot about internet grooming with one of the popular girls which serves as the climax to the novel as opposed to the required school dance that's in EVERY DCOM. I'm disappointed that her hacker sister is switched out for a musical brother, but... it's a high school centric DCOM, what are you gonna do. Everyone is basically a stereotypical, cartoon caricature of their book counterparts. The popular kids aren't evil, Jamie's parents aren't complete morons, IS isn't Jamie's imaginary friend, and weirdly her environmentalist friend is whitewashed for the movie. But what I really can't wrap my brain around is the fact that in the book IS's superpower is The Flick, which makes more sense when, you know... you flick your hands, which is what they do in the movie. I never understood the fact that they changed it to "Zap," and even weirder, I don't know why THIS is the detail that's bothering me the most. As always, completely entertaining podcast, Tony, and sorry for the essay comment. I miss you all!

[@TonyGoldmark]

... I gotta have you on the podcast more often, in case we get more DCOMs.

[@sydneyagnew8748]

Tony Goldmark You know I’m so down! I was kind of the right age for the late 90s, early/mid 2000s so I’ve seen quite a few of them (and even into the 2010s-don’t get me started on my shameless love for Descendants and Lemonade Mouth). But as far as the ones based on books go, I’ve only read this, Geek Charming, and Freaky Friday. I definitely don’t mind being the late millennial/early zoomer voice if that’s what you need!

[@TonyGoldmark]

@@sydneyagnew8748 Absolutely!

[@thewalrusclown]

So basically this movie is "what if post season 4 Brian Griffin from family guy was a teenage white girl", got it

[@SamyulDavis]

Great to hear from you guys again, hope all is well

[@alexanderklepp]

While I definitely agree that this movie is very flawed, I remember there was one thing about it that I really liked. This might have been one of the first movies I remember where I interpreted different kinds of antagonists. Like during the moment when Jamie was discussing how Is was taking over and she drew that cartoon in the margins showing Is holding her with puppet strings controlling her with Jamie saying "Help me!", it was then when it clicked in my head. "Oh, Is is the real antagonist of this film, not Sawyer."

[@ForrestFox626]

Glad to see you guys back!

[@laurahertzman943]

How does a journal get "accidentally" published?

[@laurahertzman943]

Oh god this movie has an ESSAY CONTEST!!!!??? Getting "I Accuse My Parents" vibes here!!!!!!!

[@iangraham9988]

A. Shouldn’t the friend noticed that the so called “essay” was 100+ pages long and tried to clarify it with the main character B. Most essay contests when I was in school (about 4 years earlier then film) usually had a 5k word limit. So I could see the judges disqualifying the main character’s “essay” without reading it because it would be obviously over the word limit.

[@sydneyagnew8748]

It's really not explained in the movie, but in the book, what she ends up sending her friend is pretty much just a short vent journal entry that she has to write into a complete novel once an agent and editor pick it up for publishing.

[@Morhek]

Hey hey hey Ba de ya, say do you remember? Ba de ya, dancing in September Ba de ya, never was a cloudy day

[@gentlerat]

I think there was a small world TV Show. You will find it eventually.

[@fillervision3]

Oh God I completely forgot about this TV movie...and now it's back oh God no it's back in my memories...

[@ryandowney8743]

I recognize every character arms in the picture (Yoda, Mickey Mouse, Bart Simpson, Buzz Lightyear, Scrooge McDuck, Groot, R2D2, Iron Man, Air Bud, Kermit, Woody) except for the two red hands with blue sleeves in the lower righthand corner. Who is that? Also, why is Tony swinging a showerhead as a weapon?

[@TonyGoldmark]

That's the vault handle. I'm not swinging it as a weapon, I'm trying to escape from vault disney. And those red hands belong to Pepe the King Prawn, from The Muppets.

[@Falxifer95]

Question, will you cover any of the movies that you live tweeted during hard lockdown?

[@TonyGoldmark]

As always, it's up to the randomizer, but all the movies I livetweeted are still eligible!

[@Falxifer95]

@@TonyGoldmark awesome

[@floraposteschild4184]

I didn't see the movie, but Harriet the Spy and the follow-up, The Long Secret, were my favourite books as a child. As one person mentioned, much more nuanced than the usual YA. I'd recommend them to kids today, especially in the light of possible online spying.

[@ikarikid]

Danielle Panabaker was also the main girl from Sky High

[@wiiman9824]

When is the vlog for “Rise of the Resistance” coming out?

[@TonyGoldmark]

I'm specifically holding off on that one until Disneyland reopens to the general public. Doesn't quite feel right to vlog about a ride no one can ride at the moment.

[@aarenNOLDPALMER]

They recorded this before the pandemic

[@HBarnill]

Anyone notice how there’s too much hissing every time Morgan and Haley talk? Why does that happen?

[@TonyGoldmark]

It's because they spoke a lot softer than me and Charlie did, so I had to raise their audio louder to bring them to the same level, and this was before I figured out how to make my audio software's noise reduction tools remove that hiss.

[@HBarnill]

Tony Goldmark I see. Did you buy any equipment to improve on this? Regardless, I’m having a great time listening to all this and can’t wait for the new episodes.

[@FireBlastStudios]

@@TonyGoldmark I can relate. When I did the first episode of my podcast I also spoke much louder than my guest, and had to raise the audio.

[@TonyGoldmark]

@@HBarnill No new equipment, but shortly after editing this episode, I discovered that applying a noise reduction tool at the outset fixes it.
