I think it's either Korean or Japanese.
C
57:16CalHOST
It's called Save the Green Planet.
C
57:17CalHOST
That makes a lot of sense, actually.

I mean, I was really big into South Korean film in, like, the mid-2000s.
M
3:59MikeHOST
The first film I saw, like, probably 03 or 02, was Save the Green Planet.
M
4:03MikeHOST
I got it on a Netflix DVD, and that was kind of the first one that I jumped onto.
M
4:08MikeHOST
And then I just ate everything up that I could from South Korea that was kind of hyped up.
J
6:43JoseHOST
But there is definitely going to be some bang, bang, bang.
J
6:45JoseHOST
Mike, do you have a feeling about Hong Jin's films in terms of the meandering?
M
6:51MikeHOST
Yeah, the big thing that I noticed with a lot of Korean films is Tonal shifts happen a lot, just willy-nilly a lot of times where it'll shift, like you say, from action to horror to comedy, almost like bipolar in the way that jarring mixes of tones and genres just consistently flipping on its head and even going all the way back to Save the Green Planet.

which was remade into Begonia, which also is very much the same thing where we're flipping in between genres.

So it's funny 'cause I, I, I loved it too, but a lot of people were not fans of it, and I didn't realize it was a remake.
J
56:56Joel RobertsonGUEST
Yeah, uh, Save the Green Planet, which I honestly I've not seen.
S
57:00ScarahHOST
I haven't either.
J
57:00Joel RobertsonGUEST
Um, but I have heard it's great.

And I have not seen the movie that this is a remake of.
T
61:15Travis NewtonHOST
It's a remake of a South Korean movie called Save the Green Planet.
T
61:18Travis NewtonHOST
And the premise, I understand, is pretty much exactly the same.
D
61:21Drew DietschHOST
Yeah, they're very, very different.
D
61:23Drew DietschHOST
I only saw Save the Green Planet once back in the Netflix mailing DVDs days, but it's much more kind of what you would expect from like an absurd Korean genre kind of story.
D
61:34Drew DietschHOST
It's just, you know, the particular comedic tone.
T
61:37Travis NewtonHOST
Yeah.
