  • It's finally happening! What? No! Paul, Jason, & June break down M. Night Shyamalan's 2008 thriller The Happening-a movie where the trees are out to get us and Mark Wahlberg & Zooey Deschanel run away from wind. LIVE from Largo in LA, they discuss the talking plant scene, Marky Mark's mood ring, an A+ Jeremy Strong performance, Johnny Legs' bad parenting, and so much more. Plus, June takes a hard stance on people who go out to eat for dessert only. DISCLAIMER: Despite what you hear in this episode, this is NOT a cheese podcast.

    Every death in this movie was in the trailer. Literally every single one.

    I think the concept was suppose to come from actual plants that infect ants with mind controlling spores which makes them climb to the top of the nearest plant, freeze and the spore sprouts out through the head of the paralyzed ant and releases pollen in the air to spread. Even if you can get past the part of having to believe trees communicate with each other, I'll never get over having to believe they control the wind or the wind is in on it. I feel like M. knew there were major plot holes and knowing he couldn't have a plot twist that explained it all, he went with a sudden ending and lazily says it's up to the audience to determine what happened.

      Well, actually, 🤓it’s plant kingdom assisted, non-consensual suicide. AKA Murder by toxins, and/or spores released by plants and other life, like fungi or even things from the ocean. 😆

    The fact that I know Zooey Deschanel as 'Jess' (from New Girl), didn't help.

    This movie would work better as one of those ARG films, like Cloverfield, where you see the film, and then if you look online for easter eggs and if you are REALLY interested you can get the bigger picture.
