Draws on

What the speakers say they, or a film of theirs, drew on. Each is a speaker's account: “the maker said so” when they report the maker's own words, “the host's read” when the read is theirs.

Commando (1985): 1 line

  1. theme (genre revival) · through Taken (2008), which they acted in: Commando ⇒ Taken (the host's read). Taken returned to the basic Schwarzenegger/Stallone template, but with a real actor selling the lines.
    “We're still going to have him do all of the same stuff that a Schwarzenegger or Stallone would do in commando or cobra, but now we've got a guy who, when he says things into the camera, when he gives the phone speech, you feel it.”

Drawn on by

What the speakers say drew on them or a film of theirs, marked the same way.

John Wick (2014): 1 line

  1. lineage (genre descendant) · through Taken (2008), which they acted in: Taken ⇒ John Wick (the host's read). John Wick may belong to the subgenre Taken started, though Wick is a more elaborate 5 o'clocker.
    “Probably even John Wick, maybe.”

Kidnap (2016): 1 line

  1. lineage (genre descendant) · through Taken (2008), which they acted in: Taken ⇒ Kidnap (the host's read). Kidnap is another of the movies stemming from Taken.
    “Kidnap is another one of the stemmed off of taken movies, so it's funny that you mentioned it.”

The Equalizer (2014): 1 line

  1. lineage (genre descendant) · through Taken (2008), which they acted in: Taken ⇒ The Equalizer (the host's read). Taken's box office started a subgenre of an older star beating up younger bad guys, and The Equalizer is the first example.
    “There's a whole subgenre of movies after taking exploded at the box office where everybody's like, oh, shoot, we just have to get an old person and let them fight young people”

Fun items about them

  1. fun, about Maggie Grace: Reportedly trained by running coach Alberto Salazar to run like a younger girl. Both hosts note she runs like a toddler and acts nine at seventeen, though she was older than the role.
    “she very clearly runs like a toddler in the movie.”
