Joshua ConkelHOST
The
Drusilla AdelineHOST
Darren Aronofsky movie, which is also, you know, recreating religious archetypes in the woods.
Drusilla AdelineHOST
In
Joshua ConkelHOST
a ham-fisted, dumb way.
Dan KleinHOST
I don't know how deep you guys are getting into your Bible knowledge now, but all the like cut books that didn't make it to the last, the final cut of, of the Bible.
Dan KleinHOST
We, um, We watched the 2014 kind of a hit movie, Noah, by Darren Aronofsky.
Dan KleinHOST
And that has references to something called the Book of Enoch, which is like kind of a rival Bible,
DeannaGUEST
like us.
JoeHOST
Yeah, when two assholes slam into one another, it's called a kiss.
NateHOST
I was going to say something more along the lines of it's a very strange plot twist in the last act of Darren Aronofsky's Requiem for a Dream, but that's just me.
JoeHOST
Also true.
JoeHOST
Either way, a pile of British officers are dead and a short time later, Manipuri forces start shooting at the residency again.
Jake RockatanskyHOST
And we somehow got on the topic of Noah.
Jake RockatanskyHOST
That's right, the 2014 bizarre Jewish fantasy film directed by Darren Aronofsky and starring Russell Crowe, Jennifer Connelly, and Emma Watson.
Julian FeeldHOST
Personally, I don't think that you need to say Jewish, you know? I feel like that's wrong,
Dan FriesenGUEST
but
Dan FriesenGUEST
feel it.
Dan FriesenGUEST
And you'd never seen it before, right? No, actually, I was messaging you like I had completely forgotten.
Dan FriesenGUEST
First of all, there was in 2014 that it was Darren Aronofsky.
Dan FriesenGUEST
I only knew Russell Crowe played Noah.
Doug Van DornHOST
I met Brian, actually, when he was writing his screenplay for his screen film for his Noah, what ended up becoming his Noah book.
Doug Van DornHOST
And that – it just so happened that the Aronofsky film on Noah came out right as he was doing this.
Doug Van DornHOST
And he was like, man, I can't come out with a movie now because they will never make two movies in the same year or even the same decade about the same topic out in Hollywood.
Doug Van DornHOST
So he ended up turning those into books.
Davey BerrisHOST
We just did Requiem for a Dream, and that is out if you want to listen to it.
Davey BerrisHOST
Me and Darren did that together, my co-host for the movies.
Davey BerrisHOST
I think I'm going to end up doing Pi on my own.
Davey BerrisHOST
So we ended up with two Darren Aronofsky movies in a row.
Davey BerrisHOST
Just that's how the themes lined up.
Davey BerrisHOST
uh i still need to see the uh the shakespeare one there titus what is it uh tess andromedas or something like that and then um of course for your book you know you gave us such an extensive thorough lesson on night of the living dead i have to go see dawn of the dead now so so we're gonna do dawn of the dead in honor of your book and keep going with the romero trilogy there yeah so that is what's
Justice BurkettHOST
She is also the mom from Blood Rage.
David ScanduraHOST
Also, she's in Requiem for a Dream, which I just have to imagine Darren Aronofsky sitting down and watching Blood Rage and is like, get me that drunk old lady.
David ScanduraHOST
for my drug addiction movie.
Justice BurkettHOST
Louise Lasser showed up in this movie, and immediately I was like, oh, fuck, it's the mom from Blood Rage.
GriffeyHOST
And we go into Subaru's point of view when they start sizzling out.
HeathHOST
And wait, who directed that one again? That would be Darren Aronofsky.
HeathHOST
Darren Aronofsky.
GriffeyHOST
Which he has a couple.
GriffeyHOST
I knew it was a Russian.
GriffeyHOST
I really just,
SamHOST
I forgot the guy's name, so I wanted to have it.
SamHOST
I also have a Darren Aronofsky movie.
Ian RhineHOST
you're one very famous Batman series about the beginning Frank Miller beginning of Batman's career and also I mean at the time Lieutenant Gordon as like a young detective
Jake SerwinHOST
and it's Darren Aronofsky was going to make a literal Batman Year One.
Jake SerwinHOST
He was one of the guys that they hired.
Jake SerwinHOST
They tried to hire after the Schumachers sort of fizzled out.
Tom AtkinsonHOST
Hell yeah.
Tom AtkinsonHOST
Um, hell not only that, it's, It's actually weirdly a film that's drawn comparisons with the work of Alfred Hitchcock, David Lynch, and some of the influences of this film can be seen in psychological thrillers such as Darren Aronofsky's Black Swan,
Alex HumphreyHOST
which I'm sure you're
Tom AtkinsonHOST
going to get into later.
51 MINS LATER
Alex HumphreyHOST
If you're really into perfect, give it a go.
Alex HumphreyHOST
My second one, which you might have got, which is a bit of an obvious one, is Black Swan.
Alex HumphreyHOST
So Darren Aronofsky was rumoured to have bought the remake rights for Perfect Blue.
Alex HumphreyHOST
However, he stated he had to abandon the purchase for various reasons.
