Justine: You're listening to Soul Sisters, brought to you by Running Scared Media, where every step has a story. I'm Justine and I'm Kylie, and you're not even ready for the story we're gonna tell today. What are we doing after the show? It features something green, like maybe a leprechaun. More like an anaconda.


Kylie: Dun dun dun. This is running scared, after all. And actually, there is a scary leprechaun movie somebody told me about. So maybe after hearing what we're gonna do today with Anaconda, you can take it upon yourself to watch that leprechaun movie and play this game to that. Or maybe we'll do it next year. Who knows? I know the possibilities are endless.



Justine: Warning this episode does contain spoilers of the nineteen ninety seven movie Anaconda. If you haven't seen it by now. That's kind of on you. Today, we're gonna play a running movie game instead of a drinking game to the movie we're gonna be running. We have some rules involved with that. So similar to a drinking game where you drink when something happens on screen, we're going to be changing the settings of the walk pad depending on what's happening in the movie. Tell us our rules, Justine, because it's a horror movie. Anaconda.



Justine: Every time there's a POV shot, every time somebody dies and every jump scare or scary musical sting is gonna have us increase our speed by zero point five.


Kylie: Oh my gosh, that's a lot. What's the cap?


Justine: No cap. You just gotta be sprinting.



Kylie: So that's a lot of things to increase our speed with.



Justine: But I've decided that every time they say the title of the movie Anaconda, you can decrease your speed by zero point five. So hopefully they say it enough times that it really makes an impact. So we can add the word snake, snake and anaconda. Like what else are they talking about during this movie?



Kylie: There's like three things to make you increase your speed and one and a half to decrease. And that's the game. So get on that treadmill for Kylie.



Justine: We're gonna start off with a little trivia to see what speed she's gonna start her game on. So I'm gonna ask you three questions. If you get all three right, you start at speed one. And if you get them all wrong, you start at speed four. And, you know, fill in the blank with everything in between.


Kylie: Where's my max. And that might be where you start.


Justine: Okay. I wanted to ask you some behind the scenes questions about our movie Anaconda. We're watching the original nineteen ninety seven cult classic. So our first question, we'll start with the hardest one. The snake is both CGI and animatronic. In certain scenes, the CGI snake was incredibly expensive. It cost roughly blank for every second of footage.



Kylie: And what the fuck kind of question is that?


Justine: A hard one. I want to see you sprint. I gave you easy ones.



Kylie: Can I get, like, a range?


Justine: If you get close enough, I'll give it to you. I'm not rude.



Kylie: I have to account for inflation or deflation. Okay. Wait. You're saying for every second. Yeah, I'm gonna say a thousand dollars.



Justine: A hundred thousand.



Kylie: Get the fuck out of here.



Justine: Yeah, so I if you were anywhere close to that, I would have given it to you. But you were very far. So you have one wrong. I told you a hard one. Here's an easier one. They also had an animatronic snake that they were using during filming, but it actually spun out of control. And there's rumors that it came very close to hurting one of the actors. You have to guess which actor. It's an all star cast.


Kylie: Here's my thought process. If it were to happen to Jennifer Lopez, I think she'd walk off the film. She's like, actually, fuck this. So I don't think it's JLo who would be cool about it. Perhaps Owen Wilson, but I don't know if he even made it. Like, I don't remember his character making it that far. I've only seen this film one time and it was a few years ago, but I know Ice Cube makes it pretty far and I think he would be funny about it. So I'm gonna go with Ice Cube. He's like, no big deal. I'm just limping away from the animatronic.



Justine: It was J lo.



Kylie: Get out of town.



Justine: Too wrong. Here is your final question. Arguably the easiest. While set in the Amazon, much of the movie was shot not in the Amazon rainforest. Where was it shot?



Kylie: How is that the easiest LA Hollywood?



Justine: It was half shot in Hollywood, so I'll give it to you. It was half in LA, half in Brazil.



Kylie: Justine, what kind of fucking questions were these?



Justine: What kind of behind the scenes were you hoping for?


Kylie: I was thinking a question of like, what year did the movie come out? And I would tell you it was nineteen ninety seven.


Justine: Oh my gosh. But we were just looking up the movie like seconds before I had to make it hard. Name three actors of the all star cast. I would have done it. I mean, you did just during your wrong answers have to start at a speed four.



Kylie: Yes.



Justine: Okay, let's begin the movie. Maybe he says his iconic line right away. The snakes out here this big.



Kylie: Kylie's like, thank God I'm actually really salty. You're starting off and the beginning of the movie.


Justine: Oh, okay. The beginning of the movie doesn't have as much scary as later in the movie, so I thought it would be good to get you sprinting at the beginning and you're probably only going to decrease from here. Oh, there's a title screen. I'm gonna read it. Tales of monsters, man eating anacondas. Yeah, that counts has been recounted for centuries by tribespeople of the Amazon basin, some of whom are said to worship these giant snakes. That's another one. Anacondas, again, are among the most ferocious and enormous creatures on earth growing. Oh. Oh, no, I can't read it. It disappeared. Growing tense. Oh, we don't know. Anyway, they're gonna kill their prey. There's just like a title card. At the beginning, it was going way too fast.


Kylie: That decreased my speed really fast. See? And you were worried. I knew it would.



Justine: They're gonna mention snakes and anacondas. Oh, the title screen just popped up. Anaconda again. Kylie can decrease her speed. I mean, she was really starting at a disadvantage. And now we have our all star cast. Got J-Lo Ice cube. Oh, and baby, do you know who Jon Voight sounds like I should know. I think he plays the bad guy, but yeah, I don't know. Owen Wilson. What sound is that?



Kylie: He's lightning McQueen, dude.


Justine: Oh. No way.



Kylie: Yes. The first time I watched this movie. I did not know that it was such a star studded cast, I would never imagine this group of people in a movie together.


Justine: No, seriously. But it works. It's been years since we've seen this movie. I actually think this is a POV shot at the very beginning. Like it's slanted, I think.



Kylie: Yeah, that totally was totally forgot that at the beginning of a horror movie, they gotta do something to scare you. Who is this snack?


Justine: Oh, it's that anaconda on the newspaper. Oh, shit. Okay. Whoa! Camera shake.


Kylie: If a snake was going for me that hard, I'd be like. Yeah, actually, just let me know. What am I supposed to do about it?



Justine: Your survival instinct would kick in.



Kylie: Fo sho, dude, he broke through the boat like a snake. I actually think, like, I'm terrified of being eaten alive. That I think it's like top three worst deaths that could happen to you. So I would be climbing this Flagstaff as well. He has a gun in his hand. I would maybe just kill myself.


Justine: Yeah. Honestly, do you think we're gonna see the snake at the beginning of the movie? I can't remember. No, they gotta keep the audience. Oh.



Kylie: Oh, he literally did what I thought he was gonna do, but I would have done. Wait, is there a thing for an on screen death?


Justine: Oh, yeah. Every death you increase.



Kylie: Increase?



Justine: Yeah. J lo, she looks so young. This actually so crazy. Wow. That's what people are gonna say about us one day.



Kylie: Oh, yeah. Um, I wasn't even alive when this movie came out. Just to make everyone listening feel old by a year. And so. And I wasn't alive. And my mom was even pregnant with me.



Justine: Stop.



Kylie: She might have been. No, I'm a September baby. Oh. You're right. Okay. If a man is blonde, you don't trust him. Take notes. If a man has blonde hair, then you owe him nothing. And if an anaconda gets him, then he had it coming.


Justine: Can't wait, doesn't he? Not turn out to be like an asshole later?  I can't remember when we watched this movie years ago. We were actually playing a drinking game to it, and now we're just.



Kylie: What was the rules of that?



Justine: It was like, take a sip every time we saw the snake or something, and we made a Anaconda themed cocktail, I think it was green and it had gummy worms as a snake.


Kylie: Oh yeah. Iconic, truly. What's the boat called? The Michaela ice cube. Oh my God, he looks so young too. They're all babies.


Justine: Babies? Isn't that crazy to think like these were the actors that our parents grew up with. Who's that will grow up? And Timothée Chalamet, like, she'll be watching the Wonka movie and she'll be like, oh my God, some of the Xiaomi looks so young here. And I'll be like, oh my God, I'm old dude.



Kylie: Timothee Chalamet looks young to me like I'm old. I think he looks too young. He does look very young. I don't know how old he is, but he's dating Kylie Jenner and Kylie Jenner's older than me, so he probably is around my age. I just something about him. It's that Wonka movie. I'm like, you're a child. Yeah. Also, I think he appears like he's short. I don't know if that's accurate. Oh, and Wilson. I feel like he has other catch phrases. Is he the. All right, all right, all right, guy?



Justine: No, that's Matthew McConaughey. Oh my God from Texas Chainsaw Massacre, I think to what? How do you know all this?



Kylie: How do you not?



Justine: This is why I couldn't ask you your trivia questions. Like, when did the movie come out? And who's the all star cast? You know too much about that. I had to go hard. I thought you were gonna throw me a bone.



Kylie: I thought I was throwing you a bone, bro. You assumed J-Lo was a diva, cause you're getting canceled for it now.



Justine: I doubt that's her reputation nowadays. Really?



Kylie: Yes. Oh, maybe she's like I've dealt with too much in my lifetime. That one time, that damn animatronic snake almost took me out and I didn't say anything. I'm not dealing with anything anymore. I would turn into a bitch after that as well.



Justine: Okay, I kind of forgot what the rules were. A jump scare or musical sting, which we have the TV on really quiet. So you might get lucky with that . every death and every POV shot feel like they must have discussed the word snake or anaconda while they all got on this boat together, but we missed it. So you just keep on keeping on. Whatever. We have the captions up so we can see if they say anything.

Kylie: Do you want to be watching the ads or do you want to be watching the movie right away? Do you want to be paying a billionaire Jeff Bezos for dollars to be watching this?



Justine: Is that who owns Tubi?



Kylie: No, that's who owns Amazon.



Justine: Is it because they're in the Amazon?



Kylie: No. Like if we had to buy this movie on Amazon instead of watching it for free.



Justine: Oh, oh I see. Did you see Owen's line just then?



Kylie: No.



Justine: He was like, is it just me or does the jungle make you horny?



Kylie: They would never put that in a movie these days. They probably would. But also, to answer his question, that is just you. That's probably the least likely place I would want to be getting it on.



Justine: Yeah. And then the next scene, they're caught in a rainstorm. No, thanks.



Kylie: A rainstorm does make me horny, actually.



Justine: Oh my God. Okay. Would you save the man on the stranded boat?



Kylie: Yes, why wouldn't I?  Here's the difference. Would I save a man stranded on the side of the road. In a car? No, but on a boat that's just so like. Yeah. In like the middle of the Amazon, like you'd feel bad, I would. That does sound seem like something that is happening by accident. Like he's in trouble versus side of the road. I'm thinking I'm about to get kidnapped. By the way, this character. I can't remember what his name is, but he pissed me off the first time we were watching. He annoys the crap out of me.



Justine: Why?



Kylie: He's very manipulative. I remember he convinces the group to keep doing things they don't want to do, and basically leads to all their deaths.



Justine: Is he the evil one?



Kylie: I mean yes. Is anybody truly evil in this movie or is it just the snake?



Justine: No, because he secretly wants to feed the snake. He wants to see the snake and he basically lures them to the snake.



Kylie: Oh, what the fuck? Because he wants the snake to keep eating and stay alive or something. Okay, so we, like, really shouldn't have saved him. Yeah. No, we shouldn't have.



Justine: Oh, but he did just catch a fish. Does that count as a death?



Kylie: Um, I think it's supposed to be people death. Boom. Don't. Look, Justine, I know. Ah, actually, yes, a death is a death and a fish. Fish have lives and they're important. And we're gonna sprint for the fish. I wonder if that was a real fish or not. Better not be the back in the nineties. Sheesh. The late nineteen hundreds. Bruh. A failed priest aka a cult leader. Snakes. That's my calling.



Justine: And that's Kylie getting called to slow down her treadmill.



Kylie: I'm cruising, Sam. Slithering like a snake. Poaching is illegal. But you were just fishing in the river, my guy.



Justine: Well, no, I think poaching means taking animals and selling them.



Kylie: No, no, what are you talking about?  Really? Poaching. Is hunting an animal like off season or without a permit? Oh, well, maybe because he's gonna eat the fish. He's like that. Don't count as poaching.



Justine: That definitely still counts. But maybe the fish, you're allowed to fish them. Currently, M a n a u s. How do you say that? Manaus. Manaus? That's where they filmed in Brazil. So they did go and film on location for parts of it.



Kylie: So then what was your damn question about that?



Justine: It was where did they film the movie? And I knew you would guess LA, but I also wanted to inform the viewers slash listeners, even though the movie takes place on the Amazon, where did they actually film it in Brazil?



Kylie: Well, I didn't know that they were actually filming it in the area that they said in the movie. How do we know any of your facts are factual?



Justine: I mean, ask Google AI, not only did Google AI say it, but then I was like, I'm gonna ignore Google AI. I'm gonna do my own research. And I clicked the first few links and it said the same stuff. So literally, I said, I used AI to help me come up with my questions. You said you better fact check it, and then you use AI to use yours.



Kylie: And I fact checked, you didn't just hear that part. I fact checked mine.



Justine: You know what I heard in the distance just now? A horde of people cancelling you for using AI on your homework.



Kylie: You just said you used AI.



Justine: I know I did the Google thing, and then Google gave me it. I didn't ask Google AI to do that. You know what else has been annoying me lately? When you go to your gmail. Firstly, at the very top of the email that you open now, it'll be like, this is everything that was said in the email and it bullet points it for you. That is the exact amount of text that's in the email. Like now you're making me redouble. So I just have to like force myself to ignore this Google summary. And then when you go to reply, it already wrote my email response for me.



Kylie: Really? It's creepy and like, oh, a kiss. This happened so fast. It's a nice watch. That's a POV shot. What's been pissing me off is on Amazon. I was making my daughter's wish list for her birthday coming up, and every single time I searched like a toy or an item, whatever. Oh, we did just see a snake. Well, what? Every time you see the snake to Avi. Oh, anyway, an AI thing popped up on the side being like, are you looking for this? Let me help you. And it was so annoying because it's like you're showing me the items that are on the search and there's no setting to remove it. So I have to exit every single time I search something new.



Justine: Oh my God, not the eyeball being left behind. That's disgusting.



Kylie: I thought that was an earring.



Justine: It was the Jaguar's eyeball. The snake kills the jaguar and somehow pops his eyeball out.



Kylie: Dude, imagine going to film a documentary on this, like, Indian tribe. And then you bring a driving range with you. Yeah, honestly, for life. For life. Do you know that song?



Justine: No.


Kylie: You'll always win an argument if you end up with it. Your mama.



Justine: Yeah. And now you know, that came from the late nineteen hundreds. That's just a tree.



Kylie: I'm like, is that a snake? No way. That's a literal snake. It's a snake statue.



Justine: Okay, snake statue counts every snake a totem.



Kylie: Yeah, but that's one hundred percent a snake. I think you slowed down for snakes. What the frick? I sped up. Yeah. Oh, well, whatever. I'll just keep it at this speed.



Justine: Oh, he just said warrior snake. Giant anaconda. Slow it down. We need somebody to die here soon. Kylie's crawling. Literally.



Kylie: I'm going at a Snakes pace snakes are actually, I was going to say, yeah, don't be so quick to roast the snakes. They're really fast. I beat them in a leg race because they don't have any legs. I trap snakes for a living. Oh my gosh, I'll just keep it at two. I won't go lower than a two. How about that?



Justine: Oh my God, not him being rescued only to ruin their documentary with every shot. Literally, this is what I mean by like, he's pissing me off. Like you're a guest in this house. Act like it.



Kylie: Yeah. He really doesn't act like a guest. He barely is gracious that they saved him. I don't even think he is. I think he's like, if you weren't gonna save me, I would have robbed your boat.



Justine: Oh, my gosh, I think I kind of remembered this. It's someone about to die because they're like, we're gonna go get some the sounds of nature. And then Owen's like, but remember, the sounds of nature make me horny. Oh, that's a POV shot right there.



Kylie: Oh, classic horror movie where the two lovebirds are first to go. So true. And he's smoking a dookie.



Justine: Wait, is dookie a joint or a poo.



Kylie: I think it means both. I don't smoke weed if you can't tell.



Justine: She also doesn't poop. She doesn't have experience with either.



Kylie: I'm truly in a constant state of constipation. I love how they're like, all these sounds are so beautiful. I'm like, actually, that's my nightmare. I know there's like, all these insects.



Justine: She's the one who initiates the hanky panky. Well, she's like, you've been telling me about this this whole time. Like, okay.



Kylie: He literally goes, oh my God. Like, he can't even believe it. He was not expecting it. He'll be getting horny to the sound of mosquitoes.



Justine: She's like, you know, it'd be so hot if we recorded the atmospheric jungle sound, but then we had sex on top of it, and then we made everyone listen to it in the editing room.



Kylie: Genuinely. They're gonna hear that shit. Why would you do it? Turn off your cameras, at least.



Justine: Oh, the snake is creeping up on them. They notice the silence. Oh, because there's the all the creatures leave because they're scared. Oh. Oh, it's a bore. Oh my gosh, that's a POV shot. Kylie.



Kylie: Fine. I wasn't expecting that to be a bore. I was thinking it's gonna be the anaconda.



Justine: I know they really got us. They got us twice, technically, because this is the second time we've watched this movie. By the way, I would never be in this situation because I would never sign up to do something like this ever in my life.


Kylie: Uh, yeah. Definitely not. You wouldn't. I don't want to be in the jungle by myself or with this group.



Justine: No. With Ice Cube, you wouldn't want to hang out with him? Oh, my gosh, they killed.



Kylie: Oh, my God, he shot him in the eye. Oh, wild boar gores with the tusks. Goes for the eyes. I don't know if that's true, but that just sounds ridiculous.



Justine: The two alpha men are agreeing with each other. Yeah, that poor piggy. Ice cubes are vegan. He's like. Actually, no. Yeah. For real. How are you? Shaving and using binoculars at the same time. What in the hell?



Kylie: I can't even put earrings in without looking at a mirror, which I thought was not abnormal. But Angelo, who has one piercing, can do it without using a mirror.



Justine: He can also put in eye drops while driving. As we've learned.



Kylie: I think I could put earrings in without a mirror, but I know some people who do like their makeup. Like especially those TikTok people doing their makeup on the phone. Yeah, I'm like, I can't do that. I need to look in a mirror. Yeah, the phone camera trips me up. I have tried it before, but it's strange. Yeah, I can't even put lipstick on using the mirror, actually. Like, I end up having like a red mustache and, like, a little bit of a goatee, like, it just goes all over the place. I want to hire a makeup artist, but like to only do my lips. I just want to see like, what a good lip would look like on me one time.



Justine: So when you get your makeup done, do you have them put mascara on you or do you do your mascara?



Kylie: I think I usually just insist that I do it, I insist I get really freaky. I think they've tried doing it to me and I keep like, blinking and whatever. Yeah, clenching.



Justine: And so they're like, girl, just do it. Yeah. Here you go. You, like, flinch every step of the way there. Like, do you want to put on your own foundation? Sheesh.



Kylie: Honestly, though. But if someone does it gently and they do it nice actually feels really good to get your makeup done.



Justine: Okay, so in this scene, I think there's gonna be a death. Oh my gosh. So they got stuck on something and he's trying to cut them loose. Yeah. The propeller got stuck on like a rope. Also, is it not sus that there's just a rope out there?



Kylie: No. I mean, there was maybe a shipwreck earlier. I think that's what it is. Oh my God. He's literally looking like he's in the middle of I forgot what's the creepy guy's name?



Justine: I think that's Jon Voight.



Kylie: Oh, yeah. Okay. Jon Voight's character. I think whoever creepy man that they rescue from the boat is what's happening to him. Hardcore. He'll be shot.



Justine: Yeah, I would say so. That's a POV shot of our scuba diver guy getting, like, spun around in the water. But no, the creepy man was like making eyes at JLo, which is one thing, but to bite your bottom lip, like why? His name is kale. What the fuck? The guy in the water. Kale. Maybe his kale's last name. Okay, wait. I fuck with the name kale. He is not an asshole. He's a good guy.



Kylie: Oh, yeah. Now he's a spoiler. You think he isn't gonna make it? But I think he does. Don't they have to do the trachea thing on him?



Justine: I think so. Oh, what is in the. There's a bug in his mouth. Wait, what is that? Ooh, it's like a huge ass. What's a deadly poisonous wasp?  Is. How did that get in his mouth? Stop, I can't. Jon Voight.



Kylie: No, I was actually about to make a joke. Like, gets a little bit of water in his lungs, gets a trachea. But I guess it's because of the poisonous wasp. Oh, my gosh, that looks like you. Oh, I can't look. Oh, no. Oh, no, that was so disgusting. If you are running, make sure you don't get faint by such things.



Justine: Oh my God. Actually, yeah, it's a good thing we're watching this movie, so you don't have to. You can watch that leprechaun movie. I'm pretty sure it's less gory than what we just saw. That was so gross. Disturbing as all hell. I think they did like a tracheotomy. I think that's what it's called. I think they did one in saw, and it wasn't even as gruesome as that. Actually, it was thought that it was, like, necessarily gruesome, but it was just so nonchalant. And to me that's worse.



Kylie: Yeah, it was not over the top at all. It was actually like medical in a way that I did not need to know. And it disturbed me greatly.



Justine: Hello evil man. In the movie that we can't remember the name of, you're the one who saved him with the throat thing, and now you're like, throw him in the river.



Kylie: Did Jon Voight orchestrate this whole thing? Because now with their leader out, he kind of steps into that position. He's making calls for everyone because he's like, I'm the most knowledgeable person here.



Justine: Yeah, dude, it feels like he orchestrated it, but like how he just said he was looking at the map. He's like the closest hospital and civilization is fifty miles down the river. But they're like, then why did you tell us to go up the river? You said we were taking you to the nearest town after saving your ass. So he's being sus.



Kylie: Oh, and you know what else? It's like, how did he get that bug in his mouth? Did Jon Voight, like, plant it somehow before he went in the water?



Justine: I think that's what the movie is insinuating. But honestly, how? Maybe we'll find out. Is this a POV shot?



Kylie: I think so.



Justine: Are you serious?  One hundred percent. That was a POV. What is the what is the POV? Oh, it was the snake setting sun. No, JLo wants to kill him.



Kylie: Yeah. Don't even piss me off. You said we're gonna go this way because you know it. And then when we're like, is this the river? You know? No, no. Can someone talk about a fucking snake already? Where is the snake?



Justine: When did he get dynamite? The fuck? Literally, they're like, how'd you get dynamite? You saved it from a ship in the middle of a rainstorm. And he managed to keep dynamite that wasn't destroyed by the rain. He's like, I know I'm gonna need this. I almost thought it didn't say, God's sake, but. God. Snake. Oh, God, I wish. Is he Gary?



Kylie: Ice Cube's character is named Gary. Or is Owen Wilson? Gary. Owen Wilson. Oh, look. Look. Owen Wilson is swimming in the river right now. He put the dynamite in the water so it's waterproof. Don't worry. Dynamite. Actually, you guys don't worry. There's a snakehead for you. There you go. Decrease.



Justine: Yes, that looks like a POV shot, though. Oh, that really freaked me out. What is it? Tell me what's down there.



Kylie: Maybe it's an otter, I don't know. It ought to be a snake. That's all I'm saying. Many snakes. Really?  Yeah. Look how many snakes there are. Oh, I'll just count as one, I guess.



Justine: Okay. They did say snake. And we saw snake. So you can get two. Okay. Thank God. Oh.



Kylie: Oh my God, not the snake with a toad in his mouth. Oh! Snake bite. That was horrible. Oh, Jon Voight, do something. You're such a fucking freak.



Justine: He's like, that's a lethal bite right there. Hahaha. Not gonna move it.



Kylie: I feel like he's about to kiss that snake. He's into it. He's gonna put it in his pants.



Justine: Oh, the mother is the mother. The big anaconda, perhaps o p o v. That was the most POV shot to ever POV. Oh, the bad guy's name is Sharon. Oh. So you think probably all those aerial shots of the boat on the river was actually done on location is my guess. And then everything else was not. Because if CGI back in the day was one hundred thousand dollars per second, they're like, it would just cost less money to fly everyone to Brazil. Actually, they wouldn't even have to fly everyone to Brazil. Just one guy for a boat shot on the river.



Kylie: Honestly, making this movie seems like a logistical nightmare. Kudos for them for figuring it out.



Justine: Yeah, and in like the olden days of nineteen ninety seven, can't even imagine a time wasn't even alive for it. I can't even imagine a time where it made more sense to fly for a business meeting than to call or do a Zoom tilt shot that seems like a POV.



Kylie: No, actually, there was a word for this type of shot in film school too. It's called the Dutch angle, and it's basically meant to show you this angle is not straight, like it's off putting. Like, just like how the scene is gonna make me feel off putting.



Justine: It did make me feel off put. Oh, there you go. Okay. Another reason I could never do an Amazon River float or even be a part of this movie as an actor. I do not like. I don't like getting wet. I don't like getting in the water.



Kylie: I'd be so bothered by this scene right now. Pretend you're hunting the snake that's in the river and you have to walk waist deep in it. I'd be like you, not in my clothes. I barely even like showering. So for real.



Justine: That's a great aspect of this movie. Is every shot you don't know if it's like the snake creeping up or not.



Kylie: Yeah, honestly. Oh, shit. That's a snake. Wait, is that the guide? The local guide was with him holding the snake like they are in cahoots. Oh, Mateo. No way. What the hell?



Justine: Causes a cool down walk because we're almost at the halfway point. We're just gonna have to take over. I'm gonna call it a warm up to the halfway finale. Me?



Kylie: I don't know, I feel like a lot of deaths happen in the middle. I want more people to die before I get on that treadmill. I'm, like, worried how many people die in this movie? I thought, like, everyone died. I thought maybe one or two stay alive. But there's like eight people on this ship. Like, where are they? When did they go? I thought the only people that made it out were Ice Cube and J-Lo. And then the guy with the tracheotomy. Really? I don't remember that. Is that more dynamite? Get it away from this, man. He's like, yeah, yeah, we're gonna go on for fuel. Knows that every ship has dynamite for some reason. Whoa! Oh, my God, that's a jump scare. That definitely scared me. Oh, I just realized this is the ship we see at the beginning of the movie.



Justine: Because that's this. Yes, because the snake went from below the ship and made a hole. So it wasn't for naught. It came in later.



Kylie: Yeah. It wasn't just to set the scene. It set the entire movie. I say that British guy in every shot he's in, he's playing golf. Literally every single one. He's always playing golf. Or he's getting his finger bit by a snake, or he's shaving his face.



Justine: Yeah, honestly, he shaved his face like twice already.



Kylie: He literally did. I guess men, sometimes they shave their face every morning. Look, because he's gonna die. Yeah. That's him. Yeah, that looks CGI. That's.
