The Giver

It's just like that good movie, Don't Look Up.

Or maybe we'll do The Giver.

It's also a street film.

But no, it's a film that's only supposed to be slightly in the future and maybe even be a dystopia, but you don't see the dystopia.

that.

The Giver.

I mean, I imagine that's based off of the book.

Probably.

And you know, I think of the Jack Antonoff and Lorde putting the album together moment, and even if something X-rated doesn't happen, I think there's definitely lines that have to get blurred, right?

Are you a believer in Taylor Swift and Skarsgård on the set of The Giver, uh, and that being the inspo for Wildest Dreams?

Ugh.

Yes, because have you heard when he's asked about it, he's always a little bit, uh, cagey.

I saw the first Divergent film a whole, never went to see any of them in the cinema.

I certainly didn't go see stuff like The Giver or Beautiful Creatures in cinema or Mortal Instruments City of Bones.

So I was responsible for this in many ways.

Like people like me, young men like me who were on board for the start of the thing.

And that moment of Xavier basically giving the good memories of Magneto to Polaris to fuel her fight.

is so powerful kind of reminds me of do you guys remember that young adult book the giver and where the i've heard

of it i've never yeah i grew up with it i love that i love the book i like i like the movie uh but the i love the book to death

Oh, book was great.

what are the big books that have big adaptations that you think are missing you know you mentioned the great gatsby

adaptation we all know and love

oh and some of us were obsessed with brenton thwaites the star of the giver and put his name with a heart in our instagram bio

You did that?

Some of us did.

And since then, it's been a little quiet.

He did direct The Giver, which I guess people did not care for very

much.

Oh, the Jeff Bridges YA sci-fi movie? Yeah.

And he also did Sliver, Blind Fury, The Saint, Clear and Present Danger.

The Giver, and then in the latter half of his career, he's just done TV, but he's still directing to this day, man.

Wasn't he doing

a lot of big stuff on TV during this production, I think? I'd have to look and see.
