GavHOST
Some of them overtake me.
GavHOST
Like you're in the film Cocoon.
PeteHOST
But what I find really irritating, they swim alongside each other and chat.
GavHOST
Yeah, I don't like chat.
Joe RexrodeHOST
These guys stay on an absolute heater.
Joe RexrodeHOST
It's just like, it's like the movie Cocoon, but it, but in the NHL.
Joe RexrodeHOST
And they're incredible, and it's like this run, and they actually go in the playoffs.
Joe RexrodeHOST
And you're like, "You know what? Saros is playing out of his mind.
Robby StanleyHOST
We have seen those two operate together.
Joe RexrodeHOST
I mean, think about that reunion.
Joe RexrodeHOST
I mean, sure, he's 33, but again, Cocoon had a sequel, Cocoon 2.
Robby StanleyHOST
I mean, he just won the MVP last year.
Austin KennedyHOST
So, Don Amici does Don Amici.
Austin KennedyHOST
So, obviously, I knew him from the 80s from Cocoon and Trading Places.
Tim KizerHOST
First praise for this movie.
Tim KizerHOST
The makeup in this movie is fucking amazing.
GrantHOST
I can remember seeing certain movie titles written on those VHSs because you'd put the scotch tape label on it.
GrantHOST
Cocoon was one that they had.
GrantHOST
They had to make sure that they didn't pay for Cocoon with Wilford Brimley.
GrantHOST
But my parents did have that one as a bootleg taped off of HBO.
David the LurkerPANELIST
Yeah, they stole that one.
David ReidyHOST
After showing how it all goes together, Guy composes a short piece of orchestral music using the ideas he has just explained.
David ReidyHOST
Using Cubase and some symphonic libraries, Guy is able to turn out a piece that would not sound out of place in a film or television show, and all in a few minutes.
David ReidyHOST
Like Adam's video, you already need to be proficient at choosing and playing chords, but even if you're not, the video is great for showing where you can get to if you work at it.
David ReidyHOST
Finally, Piano with Melanie looks at filling out chord progressions using other notes from the scale.
David ReidyHOST
It presented itself as itself, and not knowing where it was going just added to the enjoyment, as parts of Shakespeare's story were woven in.
David ReidyHOST
It's back in 2027 in a much bigger venue and if you're in Sydney, try not to miss it.
David ReidyHOST
A film on my list of favourites was one I went to see because it was showing at the local cinema.
David ReidyHOST
I saw Cocoon without knowing that Ron Howard had directed it and he's one of my favourite directors and remember walking out of the cinema having really enjoyed not knowing anything about what the movie was about before I saw it.
Tariq KhanGUEST
So that was a huge surprise.
Tariq KhanGUEST
I'll point out to Best Supporting Actor in 1985, when Donna Meachie won Cocoon for Cocoon.
Tariq KhanGUEST
I thought, whoa, where did this come from? He was building the movie.
Tariq KhanGUEST
So we had all these great, great surprises in past years, which we don't see anymore.
Jeremy CohenHOST
No, no, no. Saperstein, Saperstein, is played by somebody who had been a big star in the 40s, Ralph Bellamy.
Jeremy CohenHOST
Ralph Bellamy is a name that you might not know, but if you have seen the movie Trading Places, he's one of the Duke brothers, along with another great, great actor, Don Amici, who himself won an Oscar for 1985's Cocoon in a supporting role that felt like a Lifetime Achievement Award Oscar, but whatever.
Jeremy CohenHOST
So, Ralph Bellamy plays...
Jeremy CohenHOST
Rosemary's second doctor.
Jack HoughHOST
55? You know, that's one of these internet memes now.
Jack HoughHOST
It's like, I talked about the one about Wilford Brimley in Cocoon.
Jack HoughHOST
There was this movie about old people and Wilford Brimley was like old looking, but like now I'm older than Wilford Brimley.
Jack HoughHOST
And it just makes, it's something that makes old people feel bad.
Bill AntinuHOST
And like even
Daniel KrolikHOST
in Cocoon, he was a little bit of a goofball.
Bill AntinuHOST
Yeah.
Daniel KrolikHOST
Well, because he did have that face, as you say.
PeteHOST
Okay.
PeteHOST
Due to his popularity on Happy Days and coming off directing Splash and Cocoon, Ron Howard tested for the role of Rughead but was beat out by brother Clint Howard.
PeteHOST
True or false? False.
Jim LawHOST
False.
