Rolling Loud: The Movie

There was another movie that came out.

The Rolling Loud movie.

It did not do well.

It didn't do well at all.

There was an Heiress Tour movie.

A lot of these artists are creating concert movies that their fans can go watch.

And it just feels kind of like a cash grab slash... waste of time like and capitalization on some sort of attention economy that i'm not keyed into but i noticed the pattern um and it must be dying i think they thought they could do that with rolling loud but i don't think it even works for that kind like something so disparate as a festival i think people really need would want to like lock in on their favorite artists to go patronize them at a movie theater they did a playboy cardi movie i'd go watch it to be honest so There's that.

Um...

awesome

but it's funny speaking of uh owen wilson uh i i saw his latest movie where he goes like it's called rolling loud the movie where he goes to this

festival it's just a rolling loud commercial

yeah and like uh fucking one of the main guys in it in the concert is fucking travis scott and i'm like i was talking to sarah i'm like isn't he the one that had that concert where the people got fucking killed and shit? And she's like, yeah.

I'm like, ah, damn.

[laughs]

Owen Wilson is starring in Rolling Loud: The Movie, and claims that his co-star really boosted his cool ranking at home.

Take a look.

My kids are such big fans of, you know, Travis and Sexy Red, and so meeting them, I was getting a lot of street cred with my kids, so, um, I was excited.

in theaters.

Uh, very limited release.

Didn't make a dollar.

Or maybe it made a few dollars.

These two have been really close.

One can argue that they're just promoting Verity, which is another Colleen Hoover movie, and that they're just promoting, you know, Taylor's new music video.

But it's the fact that Taylor shows up for Dakota, and that Taylor even bought her a birthday cake.

And Dakota being in another Colleen Hoover is what's blowing my mind here.

She wasn't even speaking out for Blake Lively when she alleged sexual harassment at the workplace.

That says a lot.

And then when you think about how Taylor Swift's song My Tears Ricochet was even in the movie, and how she was still absent even in the midst of all that, it just signals to me that she was like, "No, I'm distancing myself from Blake." Which is crazy, because I thought, we all thought, that Taylor was her dragon.

According to Stylecaster, there are anonymous sources, now this is what they're alleging, uh, reporting that Blake is upset watching Taylor publicly support Dakota Johnson.

And now with two major October releases, American High is at an inflection point.

The first of these projects is Rolling Loud, a music festival comedy starring Owen Wilson and Matt Rife that marks the company's biggest wide theatrical release to date.

The second project, Minimum Wage, a 28 episode Netflix comedy adapted from their own viral low budget web series, is about to test whether the low cost talent and IP pipeline the company has spent years quietly building can perform on the biggest stage in streaming.

And so today we get into the thinking behind one of the more unusual companies in the comedy business.

to be here.

So we're coming up on a big month for the company.

You've got your first nationwide theatrical release, Rolling Loud.

We also have a new show, a Netflix show, Minimum Wage, coming out at the end of the month.

His Apple TV+ series Stick returns for its second season in November.

And starting October 2nd, you can see him in Rolling Loud: The Movie.

The very busy but endlessly enjoyable Owen Wilson is here.

[upbeat music] Owen, welcome.

Spoiler alert.

Uh, the Jim Parsons kind of, um, comedy.

But he worked on the Dropout series.

He worked on The Eyes of Tammy Faye, a very serious drama.
