to imagine someone saying to let's say one you know where we'd have a baby they said well we should have the baby sometimes we like let's say yeah and you wary first and april fifteenth i don't know good luck with was so i understand kevin bastos what as a member of you for us i do i do not know this i've watched surprise surprise everyone i saw beauty in the beast and very book no i didn't like well it's different than the jungle book like there were a lot of underused things a lot some differences but the movie music was good three new songs written were  excellent performances are very good little to auto tune and for one character i mean she's not a singer she's an actor who is singing but the rest of the rest the characters are very good i thought josh gad was woefully underused and almost embarrassingly so it's perfect casting for that role look at there's a person that is love food it's this guy i did like  couple of the script changes done it very very good i thought the controversy over the sexual overtones was almost a nonissue i mean beauty and the beast has  original animated one has almost as much homo sexual overtones as this film does it was a look it was like a hey let's go out and get a bite to eat or something it was a quick look it was a nothing but i thought it was a very very good and not that i mean the casting was bad if it was very very good moved by quickly nice you know rebirth but you're trying to reimagine a film that's a pinnacle already you know only animated films ever get nominated for best picture this is a perfect film jungle book sort of just like a jungle gym you know to get anyone more recent years and you know they've suggested or intimated well maybe we could but i still don't think it has been know again you're remaking a film that already is pretty darn good to start with i don't know if i'd say one is better than the other or the other is better than the first there are different  purpose to make money yes well i hate to say it that in the performance but that's what they're trying i mean but all of these these live actions they're trying to breathe new life into i imagine part of the problem is kids might not be going back to watch the old disney classics and they think well if we make these and some of the offshoots as well like malicious and some like that that i don't know if they're trying to get people to watch the old ones and buy them on different forms or if they're just trying to i mean i think part of it because if you buy again that money or the hope is that people who grew up on you the beast are parents now and they'll take them to see and i think that's closer here because there's still another you know it sounds like disney's looking at every single movie think i've ever done with the features and i guess milans coming soon they're working on it would be curious to see although they're saying it's not going to be a musical it will be more a swashbuckling type well i think and people forget this happened for quite a while you know a hundred one dalmatians with glenn close was very good but absolutely no one now is looking at either one of those mill films and on let's go get the glenn close version it doesn't make it and she glenn close it's tough to look at a live action film and see it lasting for a long time like i would always say with universal it didn't have that i can r f e that  thing that stuck around forever outside of the monsters until harry potter went in there and i think that's something that could last for one hundred years where disney has all of these timeless animated things and i don't see any it's a struggle to see any live action film as timeless star wars is fantastic it's you know science fiction kind of a film it doesn't exist in a time that's what makes it timeless but outside of you know crazy science fiction or fantastic it's not going to be timeless just because of the hairstyles and the fashion and everything else it's going to seem dated so i can imagine speaking of timeless by the way did you have a final box office total for that film i do last i heard was one hundred sixty well so pretty new you know you know it was you got emma wrongfully accused and sent to prison the former basketball star prepares for the national slam dunk competition while finding redemption in himself and those he loves and so it the development where is where it goes it's like drugs for example drugs are expensive it's a bunch of chemical dust it's the innovation and the testing that goes behind it to build that stuff so innovation you know i'm looking w allows you to add animated text to videos you were able to order a voice it's going to this major multimedia messaging system that allow you to the next version the i phone will actually be bigger than the i pad i pad micro they're calling it it's smaller than the i phone double x and we have you know there's some new apple watch bands and swift playgrounds will now be available in five or lot of psychologists as part of like their marketing or whatever just because you know the discussion is that how do you get people to basically continue to upgrade products that are very minor and as you're chevy i guess the thing that interests me most of all this novice apple's making hand over fist like crazy there are no there's no i don't like you at all this is the end of apple you know there's no end coming anytime soon but it reminds me very much of apple pre steve jobs coming back and even he himself would say we get too many versions of the same product and we had too many different types of products and that was where steve jobs at that famous you know  four squares where he said here's our four products yes there are you know desktop laptop home business and basically said we you know you want to simplify things and i feel like apple's in that mess right now where they're just they're coming up with all these little variations of you know it let's face it you know the i phone is the revolutionary product that they created i would argue i pod and the i pad not nearly as much and certainly not the apple watch i would argue the i pod in there i felt like the i pod was as good as its competitors at the time last people bought it but i don't i didn't think that there was that you know the other  which is so bizarre to think about that but and then well digital music file sharing illegal or whatever was around for ages for that but i think i can storm of when things were launching and i thought with every pay for music it's all out there for free napster go take it for free shawn made a ton of money there so i've got something to talk about with along with this book go on ok so my question is you know this is kind of like with comic books where there's been this wealth of of stuff that kind of was around for a long time ago building a building and building and then now you know it's become a giant industry as far as movies go to the same thing happened with the with the japanese series and i was trying to think of how many how many of these have been turned into have not seen any other whatever live action i don't know and then speed racer which i had forgotten that actually was there was a huge number of manga before the you know existed and successful i mean do you think that it's hollywood's going to go after a kind of an untapped market here i don't think it's going to make the boatload of money they're expecting it to to be a tremendous success  i can't imagine that happening let me throw out something else i what i saw you mention the people are upset that it's an american person instead of an asian person does it upset they people really were upset that wonder woman doesn't have armpit hair did you see this yes apparently twitter was run down like a wash that really yes i wonder woman character does not have because how could how could she take time to shave her armpits and that's a and i thought really this is why are we getting upset about this this is fiction and it's just like i don't care one way or the other have it or don't have it i mean it goes back to this question about beauty and the beast two where i feel like and you know these are great things the artistic muppet a superhero i know especially the gay superhero might offend some segment of the population that probably  the genesis of the push whether it was reviewers that saw it and made a big stink or whether disney was trying to say hey look what we're doing will come progressive we're being do their marketing and what you think about as far as the you know the fact that there's press releases or trying to make big deals about things that aren't a big deal anymore we don't care anymore let me make a parallel because i always talked about this with my classrooms fifty years ago making that jump to allow interracial marriages in the united states was a big thing have a supreme court decision it still it scares me that in the one nine hundred sixty s people couldn't do that and then supreme court decision than in the seventh was that there was the couple on the jeffersons that was an interracial marriage and it was done for comedic effect it became a funny thing and really for the most part outside of a few anomalous scenarios you didn't have caucasian people and african americans dating there were a lot of interracial marriages that were to minorities together but you didn't have that a lot and i think in the last seven to eight years we're finally seeing this normalizing break through earlier where it becomes a who cares about i mean more like beauty and the beast live action was an overwhelming i would even say majority there were significant number of interracial relationships on that screen and i left with my family i thought that was very progressive and silent like it wasn't a press release it wasn't made a stink of nothing happened with it and i think what we're seeing now is a lot of we're getting to the end of the comedic effect with homosexuality something like modern family is an example of that for thinking back you know twenty years or so there were very stereotypical homosexual characters on and we're starting now to cross over that line where it's just there it's just a part of the fabric of what happens and being i think a progressive person i think that's great we're finally getting over that that's weird that's strange that's different that's anom to that's the way it is so i think we're taking that step now and seeing that i think it's great i mean people i'm trying to think of everything i've seen not everyone is in a relationship not everyone you know who is a straight person is married or in a long term relationship something some people just are and i think this is a step you know someone is homosexual that's the way it is i think kind of a big stink eye to be made about it as the initial step correct getting there and then it has to be something that's humorous strange awkward different comedic punchline kind of a thing and that has to you know put try that out and then permeate the fabric and then it would just be something it is it's in the background of what happens now i think it's great speaking of great
