1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:08,080 Welcome to Pick Up and Deliver the podcast where I pick up my audio recorder as I step 2 00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:11,040 off the train and deliver an episode to you while I walk home. 3 00:00:11,040 --> 00:00:12,520 I'm Brendan Riley. 4 00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:13,520 [music] 5 00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:22,760 Well, good afternoon listeners. 6 00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:24,880 It's a lovely day here in suburban Chicago. 7 00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:29,160 I'm strolling home from work and happy to talk to you about board games. 8 00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:30,160 Ha! tricked you. 9 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:31,680 It's not actually going to be about board games today. 10 00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:33,320 It's going to be about movies. 11 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:38,160 That's right, it's been 12 episodes or so since I did an episode talking about movies 12 00:00:38,160 --> 00:00:40,400 and it's been another month since then. 13 00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:43,240 So I'm going to talk about some movies I watched. 14 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:45,880 That's right, it's the film roundup episode. 15 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:51,240 Now as I often do, I will try to think about what would make a good game pairing thematically 16 00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:53,320 if you want to do a game and movie night. 17 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:56,120 But in reality, this is the movie review episode. 18 00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:59,080 So if that's not your bag, sorry about that. 19 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:00,760 Hopefully you'll enjoy it. 20 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:03,240 Unless otherwise, see you next time. 21 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:07,920 So I thought I would today, I would talk about the six movies that I watched in February 22 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:12,000 and reflect a little bit on what I thought of them and give my opinion. 23 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:16,040 Alright, so to start with, this one is one a lot of people saw. 24 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:17,800 This was Oppenheimer. 25 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,320 From a technical perspective, Oppenheimer is of course an excellent movie. 26 00:01:21,320 --> 00:01:25,920 I enjoyed watching it as is true for me of all Christopher Nolan films. 27 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:29,840 I've yet to have one that I didn't actually just enjoy. 28 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:33,280 I'm not sure, I know a lot of people thought, "Tenet was kind of inscrutable." 29 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,760 I did not find it to be that way. 30 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:42,160 I, whatever sort of weird, strange loops that Christopher Nolan puts into his narratives, 31 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:44,640 I generally find pretty comprehensible. 32 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:49,080 And so maybe it's middle-aged white dude to middle-aged white dude. 33 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:53,320 I can really sympathize with his view of weirdness in the world. 34 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:57,120 So from a technical perspective, I really appreciated the way it's made. 35 00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:01,700 He does a nice job of building up these three parallel stories from three different time 36 00:02:01,700 --> 00:02:06,120 points in Oppenheimer's life and sort of tracking them simultaneously. 37 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:12,120 It makes for an interesting narrative that is not linear. 38 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,760 Of course all the actors in the film do a really good job. 39 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,280 I particularly like to Matt Damon's performance. 40 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:24,260 I think he does a really good job of playing sort of somebody who's a bit annoyed and just 41 00:02:24,260 --> 00:02:28,120 trying to do their best in the face of insanity. 42 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:31,520 And that felt like what's happening with the Matt Damon character. 43 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,120 I really liked that small part. 44 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:40,400 Of course, Cillian Murphy did an excellent job as many people have recognized. 45 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:48,600 I was irritated but not surprised by how little room was given for female actors to do much 46 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:49,600 work at all. 47 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:55,760 It's not uncommon for Christopher Nolan's stories to give relatively little space for women. 48 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,360 And this one is another of those. 49 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:03,800 I thought Emily Blunt did a pretty amazing job in the short time she had as his wife. 50 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:08,640 And the woman who played the girlfriend, oh I can't remember her name. 51 00:03:08,640 --> 00:03:12,720 She was Black Widow's sister in the Black Widow movie. 52 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:17,000 She is a pretty big star right now and I'm kind of ashamed that I don't remember her name 53 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:22,320 but I thought she did a good job as well for what limited space they were given. 54 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:26,080 You know, there's a lot of commentary about this movie being amazing, right? 55 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,760 And it won all sorts of accolades. 56 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:34,920 I mean, I thought it was good but I don't really get why people thought it was so incredible. 57 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:39,400 Apart because I guess just for me like the subject matter feels really covered. 58 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:44,720 I don't know how people are having new views or new ideas about what the atomic bomb was at 59 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:45,720 this point. 60 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:52,600 So maybe I've just read or encountered more of it than your average filmgoer or maybe people 61 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:54,160 just hadn't thought about it in the same way. 62 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:55,200 I don't know. 63 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:56,360 I don't know. 64 00:03:56,360 --> 00:04:04,520 But the broad remit of the film did not strike me as incredibly unusual. 65 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:11,120 And so like I said, nice job all the pieces but the story itself was I guess sort of what 66 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:12,120 I thought it would be. 67 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:17,680 And so it's hard to really see it as the amazing thing everybody seems to think it is when 68 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,720 it was what I expected it would be. 69 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:25,960 So that's Oppenheimer, three and a half stars. 70 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:29,120 The next film is a small indie film called The Vast of Night. 71 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:36,840 The loose premise is we follow a couple teenagers in a small town in America in the 1950s when 72 00:04:36,840 --> 00:04:40,920 something weird is going on and there might be aliens. 73 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:48,800 The central points of the film are a radio station where one of the teenagers has 74 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:56,280 a job as a disc jockey, disc jockey and the phone switchboard where one of the other teenagers 75 00:04:56,280 --> 00:04:58,920 has an evening job as a switchboard operator. 76 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,240 The premise is really it works really well. 77 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:08,160 It's sort of like the Orson Welles' War of the Worlds in that it's a series of sort of 78 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:15,880 sounds that they hear and incomplete reports and the chaos of not knowing what's going 79 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,960 on sort of shapes the experience. 80 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:24,560 The two young actors do a really good job sort of portraying this compelling state and 81 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,800 there's a lot of running around in confusion. 82 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:33,720 There's a really interesting drone shot that follows the characters into like a high school 83 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:35,960 gym where there's a high school basketball game playing. 84 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:39,760 All these people cheering and the drone kind of zooms in and zooms around and zooms back 85 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:40,760 out. 86 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:45,680 It's a really neat shot that you couldn't you just couldn't do before drones and cameras 87 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,360 got a lot smaller and cheaper. 88 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:53,240 So this movie is clearly made on a reasonably small budget but really compelling and just 89 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:54,640 an interesting film. 90 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:56,800 So like actually give it four stars. 91 00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:01,160 Oppenheimer is this big thing that did what I thought it would do. 92 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:04,080 The Vast of Night just felt it came out the story a little different. 93 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:05,360 I really liked it. 94 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:06,360 The Vast of Night. 95 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:08,560 That's a 2019 film. 96 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,440 Next up this is a film I watched after I watched The Vast of Night. 97 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:16,560 I found I just had an evening to myself and I watched The Vast of Night on Amazon Prime 98 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:21,040 and I had some more time and I was you know how after you watch a movie there's like a 99 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,320 list of movies you might like down below. 100 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,600 So I started watching that or going through that. 101 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:30,080 And you know a lot of the movies were ones and two stars maybe a three star occasionally. 102 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,040 Then I came across this movie called Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes. 103 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:38,440 It was like five stars and I said to myself well or maybe four stars four and a half 104 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:42,560 but way higher than the other movies around it in this list. 105 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:46,200 And then upon examining it more closely I see it's a Japanese movie it's in Japanese. 106 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:50,880 You have to watch it with subtitles and I'm like oh American unwillingness to watch 107 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:55,120 subtitles that's where that's why it's down among these movies people don't want to watch 108 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:56,840 even though it's very well rated. 109 00:06:56,840 --> 00:07:00,840 So I gave it a try and of all the movies I'm talking about this month this is the one you 110 00:07:00,840 --> 00:07:02,840 should watch if you're only going to watch one. 111 00:07:02,840 --> 00:07:08,960 Beyond The Infinite Two Minutes is a really interesting film about time travel kind of 112 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:12,520 the premise and I'm not giving away anything that's not clear in the first two minutes or 113 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,000 five minutes of the film. 114 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:19,000 The premise is that there's a TV in this diner and this TV in this guy's apartment which 115 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:23,240 is upstairs from the diner and those TVs are connected to one another. 116 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:31,000 There's a two minute delay between the TV and the diner and a TV in the house and the 117 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:35,800 big thing is that it's not just like the signal takes two minutes to get from one to the 118 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:37,040 other. 119 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:40,960 I guess that is kind of what is going on the signal takes two minutes to get from one 120 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:44,280 other but that you can see through them. 121 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,400 You can see from one to the other. 122 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:53,120 So the if you are where the if you are where the past TV is you can see two minutes into 123 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:56,000 the future is the best way I can explain it. 124 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,080 So it's not a two minute delay it's actually two minutes in the future. 125 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:03,480 It's an instantaneous two minute gap and the whole movie is sort of about what would happen 126 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:08,960 if you had access to this and what how would you what would you do with it and it's a nice 127 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,080 little bottle episode of a movie. 128 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:17,580 It seems to have been shot probably on a handheld camera and if not in one take it was it's 129 00:08:17,580 --> 00:08:20,240 cheated into looking like one take. 130 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:24,620 There's a lot of going up and down the stairs in the camera following them and stuff happening 131 00:08:24,620 --> 00:08:26,120 in really interesting ways. 132 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:29,880 It's a very thoughtfully produced movie really fun and something you should definitely check 133 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:30,880 out if you can. 134 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,000 It's called Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes. 135 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:34,920 That's my only five star of the month. 136 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,960 That's from 2020 and I watched it on Amazon Prime. 137 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:42,120 Well we're at our commercial break or we're at three minutes there are three movies that's 138 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:47,000 halfway in and I realize I have yet to suggest any games to go with these movies but I will 139 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:48,320 suggest them now. 140 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:54,920 So Oppenheimer it feels like the game to suggest to that would be Manhattan Project. 141 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:56,440 I don't have that one. 142 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,740 If you were coming to my house and said Brendan I want to play whatever you have that's 143 00:08:59,740 --> 00:09:05,560 closest, that's Manhattan Project Energy Empire which is a related game but not in the direct 144 00:09:05,560 --> 00:09:06,560 project. 145 00:09:06,560 --> 00:09:08,560 Manhattan Project would be the one to play. 146 00:09:08,560 --> 00:09:11,400 That game is probably very difficult to find now. 147 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:15,440 It was originally published by minion games and of course minion games folded when James 148 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,600 Mathe sadly passed away. 149 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:23,360 Some of the games have been picked up for printing but for the most part that concern went when 150 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:24,640 he passed away. 151 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:25,640 So that's sad. 152 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:27,480 So I haven't played Manhattan Project. 153 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,000 I can't say whether it's any good. 154 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:33,120 I know that Manhattan Project Energy Empire is very good and I enjoyed a lot. 155 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:34,840 So that's for Oppenheimer. 156 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:35,840 The Vast of Night. 157 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,520 I'm going to say the visitor at Blackwood Grove. 158 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:44,640 This is a small social deduction game where one player plays an alien and the other player 159 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:51,000 plays a child trying to communicate with the alien and there's humans trying to communicate 160 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:56,040 or the government is trying to intercept it and there's basically the goal is the child 161 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:59,920 or the children is to communicate with the alien before the government intercepts those 162 00:09:59,920 --> 00:10:00,920 communications. 163 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:06,000 It's a sort of deduction game, a competitive deduction game that's weird and interesting 164 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:09,200 and I enjoyed it the one time I played it but there's not really room in my collection 165 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,640 for it so it did go away. 166 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,600 But if you get a chance, this is a return back. 167 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:17,680 And Blackwood Grove would fit the Vast of Night. 168 00:10:17,680 --> 00:10:21,720 For beyond the infinite two minutes, I think that time you killed me has to be the game 169 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:25,840 that I would play in connection because that game is so specifically about anticipating 170 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:30,880 what happens when you move on one place in another place and thinking two or three moves 171 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,560 ahead but also two or three boards ahead. 172 00:10:33,560 --> 00:10:38,280 I've had a number of games of that where I won or lost based on somebody not seeing that 173 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:41,920 if you jumped from one board to another you could take their piece out and if you're already 174 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:44,520 missing from one of the boards then that's it. 175 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:49,320 Really interesting game, well worth playing if you get a chance that's that time you killed 176 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:50,320 me. 177 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:52,640 Alright three more movies, I'll talk about a game after each one because I don't know 178 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:54,240 if I'll get to all three. 179 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,200 Now the first one is The Lost King. 180 00:10:56,200 --> 00:11:01,520 This falls in the category of the British know how to make heartwarming, pleasant stories 181 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:03,640 with a low dramatic arc movies. 182 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:06,600 Reminds me of the Bank of Dave a little bit. 183 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:14,340 In The Lost King, we have the story of a amateur archaeologist and fan of King Richard 184 00:11:14,340 --> 00:11:20,880 the third who led the campaign to try and find the place where King Richard was probably 185 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:25,020 buried and in fact did find the place where King Richard was buried. 186 00:11:25,020 --> 00:11:26,460 This is a true story. 187 00:11:26,460 --> 00:11:32,480 Of course the academic bureaucracy got in the way and it sort of frustrating to watch her 188 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:38,740 chafe against these systems of expertise so that prevent outsiders from participating. 189 00:11:38,740 --> 00:11:44,300 As an academic though, I also reflected a little bit on the fact that people with 190 00:11:44,300 --> 00:11:49,240 outformal training or without enough training will sort of stick their oar in whether or 191 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:53,100 not they really know what they're talking about and so there's an interesting back and 192 00:11:53,100 --> 00:11:55,740 forth about that in this movie. 193 00:11:55,740 --> 00:12:00,220 It's clearly on the side of the amateur though and frankly so am I if nothing else because 194 00:12:00,220 --> 00:12:03,340 the movie makes the bureaucrats look like jerks. 195 00:12:03,340 --> 00:12:06,140 That's The Lost King from 2022. 196 00:12:06,140 --> 00:12:09,180 I don't know what game would go with this I guess. 197 00:12:09,180 --> 00:12:15,340 Tobago maybe I think is a game where you are trying to find a lost treasure that is buried 198 00:12:15,340 --> 00:12:20,060 and you're running around trying to find clues to find where to dig for it that probably 199 00:12:20,060 --> 00:12:21,060 works. 200 00:12:21,060 --> 00:12:22,060 I think it's Tobago. 201 00:12:22,060 --> 00:12:23,980 It might be Kahuna. 202 00:12:23,980 --> 00:12:25,060 I can't remember. 203 00:12:25,060 --> 00:12:29,340 If you know what I'm talking about let me know it's a game where each person draws a 204 00:12:29,340 --> 00:12:33,980 clue and those clues then reduce the number of places that the treasure could be until 205 00:12:33,980 --> 00:12:38,060 somebody manages to figure out where the treasure is and get their truck there first. 206 00:12:38,060 --> 00:12:41,620 So it's definitely a game that's been around a while I can't remember what it's called. 207 00:12:41,620 --> 00:12:43,300 It's something like Kahuna. 208 00:12:43,300 --> 00:12:44,300 It's not Kahuna. 209 00:12:44,300 --> 00:12:47,660 I feel like Tobago maybe but that doesn't seem right either. 210 00:12:47,660 --> 00:12:53,400 I guess we were on a kick for missing things because then we rewatched the Sandra Bullock, Channing Tatem 211 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,780 romantic comedy, The Lost City. 212 00:12:56,780 --> 00:12:59,980 This movie was basically just Romancing the Stone again. 213 00:12:59,980 --> 00:13:02,980 I like that movie a lot and I like this one as well. 214 00:13:02,980 --> 00:13:09,220 In that one, Romancing the Stone, Michael Douglas plays a rather sexist adventurer type 215 00:13:09,220 --> 00:13:15,840 and in The Lost City, Sandra Bullock is the judgmental type who looks at the sort of 216 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:21,300 ditsy body builder character Channing Tatem with judgmental eyes. 217 00:13:21,300 --> 00:13:23,700 So this is a duel. 218 00:13:23,700 --> 00:13:25,340 This is sort of reversal of that trope. 219 00:13:25,340 --> 00:13:26,980 You got Daniel Radcliffe chewing the scenery. 220 00:13:26,980 --> 00:13:30,460 He has a goofy villain. 221 00:13:30,460 --> 00:13:34,180 He's got all that dissimilar from the character he played in Now You See Me 2. 222 00:13:34,180 --> 00:13:36,780 Both of them sort of hilariously evil. 223 00:13:36,780 --> 00:13:40,860 And I like Daniel Radcliffe taking just kind of whatever part he feels like. 224 00:13:40,860 --> 00:13:42,980 He's got a lot of range and he shows it. 225 00:13:42,980 --> 00:13:46,340 The Lost City also has a fantastic cameo from Brad Pitt. 226 00:13:46,340 --> 00:13:50,860 Well, not cameo but small part from Brad Pitt and really funny chase sequences. 227 00:13:50,860 --> 00:13:53,020 So if you haven't seen The Lost City, I recommend it. 228 00:13:53,020 --> 00:13:54,020 It's very funny. 229 00:13:54,020 --> 00:13:58,540 As a game to go with it I would say the Explorers is perhaps the Temple of Chac which is the 230 00:13:58,540 --> 00:14:02,180 one that has the rolling boulder in the pits of lava. 231 00:14:02,180 --> 00:14:03,580 It fits this game really well. 232 00:14:03,580 --> 00:14:06,460 That would be a nice pairing. 233 00:14:06,460 --> 00:14:10,660 Like Romance of the Stone that game has a fair amount of misogyny or at least sexism built 234 00:14:10,660 --> 00:14:12,660 into the art design. 235 00:14:12,660 --> 00:14:16,740 I guess you could excuse the game a little bit because it's French but mostly it's just 236 00:14:16,740 --> 00:14:20,140 like the female characters are all drawn pretty buxom. 237 00:14:20,140 --> 00:14:23,420 Nonetheless the Temple of Chac is a pretty fun game if you can get a hold of it. 238 00:14:23,420 --> 00:14:28,180 It's long out of print unfortunately so not a game you're going to find most places. 239 00:14:28,180 --> 00:14:30,820 If you come to visit me we could play it. 240 00:14:30,820 --> 00:14:32,380 So that would go with The Lost City. 241 00:14:32,380 --> 00:14:38,940 And then finally just a quick word for Jay Barruchel in Blackberry which 242 00:14:38,940 --> 00:14:45,540 is a relatively simple tech bros trying to solve a problem becoming famous. 243 00:14:45,540 --> 00:14:49,300 Rise and fall of a tech company story. 244 00:14:49,300 --> 00:14:54,860 Starting Jay Barruchel as the tech genius behind the Research In Motion and the company 245 00:14:54,860 --> 00:14:55,860 the Blackberry. 246 00:14:55,860 --> 00:14:58,060 That was a pretty entertaining story. 247 00:14:58,060 --> 00:15:00,580 I enjoyed watching that. 248 00:15:00,580 --> 00:15:02,580 It is kind of what you expected. 249 00:15:02,580 --> 00:15:07,300 There's a great scene where the skeptical businessman says you know that's a problem you 250 00:15:07,300 --> 00:15:11,940 can't solve and they say well we solved it ha ha and that's always fun. 251 00:15:11,940 --> 00:15:14,100 Lots of good information there. 252 00:15:14,100 --> 00:15:17,300 So not a whole lot to say about that movie. 253 00:15:17,300 --> 00:15:19,580 It is kind of what you'd expect it to be. 254 00:15:19,580 --> 00:15:24,180 Tech bros solving problems getting rich then the downfall of those same tech bros 255 00:15:24,180 --> 00:15:25,180 works really well. 256 00:15:25,180 --> 00:15:28,980 I guess if I was going to recommend the game not having played it obviously Smartphone Inc 257 00:15:28,980 --> 00:15:34,180 seems like the game you would play to go along with watching the movie Blackberry 258 00:15:34,180 --> 00:15:39,260 because they're both about you know Blackberries and related products. 259 00:15:39,260 --> 00:15:43,540 Well I became to hear what movies you've been watching in the last couple months. 260 00:15:43,540 --> 00:15:46,780 Those are the movies I watched in February 2024. 261 00:15:46,780 --> 00:15:50,340 In order to share that information with me you can head over to boardgamegeek guild 3269 262 00:15:50,340 --> 00:15:53,020 and I'd love to learn what movies you've been watching. 263
