Step inside the pitch meeting that led to Red Notice!
Subscribe for more Pitch Meetings: goo.gl/ho3Hg6
Red Notice was Netflix’s most expensive movie to date, and also (apparently) their biggest opening ever. With massive stars Ryan Reynolds, Dwayne Johnson and Gal Gadot just kind of doing their thing-- it’s no wonder why so many people clicked “play.”
Red Notice definitely raises some questions though. Like was this movie sold on name recognition alone? Why did Dwayne Johnson and Gal Gadot’s characters even involve Ryan Reynolds in the whole first part of the plan if they just needed the third egg’s location from him? How did they know they’d end up in the same jail cell as him? Why is prison so easy to break out from? How is that 80-year-old vehicle still running, and why is there a waterfall here?
To answer all these questions and more, step inside the Pitch Meeting that led to Red Notice! It’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience.

I like that he doesn't even bother using character names, since it really doesn't matter for this film.
I refreshed the comments and the ScreenRant "like" popped up quickly🤣🤣
@@lukamaisuradze8051 screen rant must've thought it was super easy,barely an inconvenience to add some likes.
@@poppy87 I hope it's Ryan himself and not some dudes on ScreenRant KZhead staff
And now they pinned it🤣🤣
True
I think what I learned from this is that Gal Gadot doesn't own a stake in an alcoholic beverage company
Does she own a stake in "Wonderbra"?
@@StevieB8363 More likely she owns shares of Amazon.

@@StevieB8363 So true!
Not yet. By the time part 2 comes around she will
I’ve heard that Dwayne Johnson and Ryan Reynolds meticulously prepared for these roles by actually living their own lives as themselves for more than forty-five years.
Shots fired!
GOT EM!!
Wow. What dedication
That's method AF. Daniel Day Lewis doesn't hold a candle to them.
Method acting at its finest!!
Having two “super easy, barely an inconvenience”'s in a single Pitch Meeting is TIGHT!
It's actually super easy, barely an inconvenience
Yeah yeah yeah
Wow wow, wow wow wow.... Wow
This wasn't the first time that happened.
oh really?
Dwayne Johnson has Jungles, Ryan Reynolds has witty one-liners, and Gal Gadot has decades old vehicles that somehow work despite having not been used.
That is... Wildly accurate 🤣

@@FuckFascistKZhead Really? Even in the comments of a Pitch Meeting video? BOO THIS MAN! BOOOOO!
Ryan, you forgot to mention how during the helicopter scene, the Russian police actually had an RPG and instead of first aiming at the helicopter, they aimed for Dwayne 😂
Or how the bad guy is established as enjoying strangling people, yet never once tries to strangle anyone in the movie.
Even stupider than that was the fact that the Russian military prison had an AT4 *instead* of an RPG. For some reason.
I wondered this too.... like yeah shoot the moving guy on a swing bridge rather than his stationary escape vehicle
@@Naigus likeeeee the sense behind it😂😂
Dwayne's deadlier than a helicopter with a turret
Dwayne has jungle scenes in his contract adjacent to Tom Cruise and his running sequences 😭🤣🤣
I wanna see Dwayne Johnson and Tom Cruise do a movie together now.

"This isn't so much a twist ending as it is a... spin cycle." My man be hitting us with only the truest of facts.
I laughed. It almost ENTIRELY encapsulates Hollywood 'writing' in a nutshell. Just absolute bonkers, nonsensical, totally implausible, impossibly ridiculous spin. Washing machines and blenders would actually be confused and simultaneously humiliated.
Also, omg, I just realized your login name... hahahaha SLAP DAT LLAMA! 🤣😂🤣😂
IT DO BE LIKE THAT THOUGH
S
"Dwayne Johnson has that weird thing with jungles in all his contracts." I nearly spit up my drink laughing, because it's so true, every time I see him he's in another freaking jungle! xD
Thanks to SR everytime I read your profile name somewhere I think of the eternals 😆
Ah, a pitch meeting newbie. Welcome!
Guess the dessert never really work for him
Or divorced
Besides Central Intelligence,The Tooth Fairy and The Game Plan.
“That’s not a twist, that’s a spin cycle.” Me: SpIn CyClEs ArE tIgHt!
"....no." That delivery just killed me. Holy crap, someone make a movie with Ryan in it!
"Could they just use this simpler/more smart option?" "...No" I smell a new running gag.
this is a pitch for a movie with ryan in it
Had to watch it twice, so good
I watched the first episode of the TV show he was in and then completely forgot about it till just now. Wasn't Ryan's fault though.
That no was so funny
Making a successful movie with Deadpool and The Rock is super easy, barely an inconvenience.
Don't forget Wonder Woman.
Oh, really?
You just need the money, then it will just work
@@cma1676 and ed sheeran
What happens when Black Adam, Deadpool, and Wonder Woman plan a heist
my reasoning for why ryan stayed in the room with the real egg: he literally talked about how he loves the attention and escaping so he just did it for his own amusement
“So wait if all they needed from Ryan Reynolds is the location of the third egg, couldn’t they have just followed him to that one instead of doing everything they did up to this point?” *long pause* …..”No.” NAILED IT!!! 😂
I was waiting for "Get off my back about that." No was a nice surprise.
@@earlleeruhf3130 I was expecting a "Hey, shut up."
Pitch Meetings have become a perfect excuse not to watch most of those movies.
I find it therapeutic for the crappy ones I did watch
Yeah, I wouldn't watch most of them anyways.
yeah like shang chii,eternals,black widow etc😂👍
Just watch them after the pitch meeting this way you feel like an exec
I watched some movies so that I can fully enjoy the pitch meetings.
The delay on the fourth "wow" was a masterpiece of modern cinema all by itself. Thanks for your effort in keeping "wow" fresh.
It was like watching a screamer video waiting for the frame to change!
Delaying the fourth “wow” is tight
it is almost always like that, though...
He just has to let you know that he's not actually all that impressed
@@akvyr the pause was longer though
4:28 - "No." This delivery merits an Oscar.
Without a stitch of sarcasm I genuinely enjoyed this so much more than the actual movie.
You know, I actually hope that Netflix's movies are made with algorithms, because I feel much more comfortable with that than knowing that there's people who actually come up with stuff so banal and generic.
I love how he just called the characters by the actors' names the whole time. I mean I don't blame him, I just finished watching the movie and I don't remember the character names lol
IKR? LMAO🤣🤣🤣
I only don’t remember The Rocks name. Reynolds was Booth. Gadot was bishop and the interpol chick was Das
Actually never mind as soon as I posted that I remember his name was Hartley
They had names?
Damn you’re right, I literally can’t remember their names😂
"What's his character's deal?" "Well, he's Ryan Reynolds." This accurately sums up what Ryan Reynolds has been doing ever since Deadpool.
To be honest it's kinda been his thing his entire career. He's had one or two (Hitman's Bodyguard was slightly less egregious) but by and large he plays himself
Before also - I started noticing him since Van Wilder and he has always been like that.
Since way before Deadpool you mean…
"perfect"
“Buried” is the only movie I’m aware of his where he’s not sarcastic, lol.
The joke at 0:14 is made funnier by the fact that Netflix's description for this movie is literally just "This 2021 film features Dwayne Johnson, Ryan Reynolds and Gal Gadot."
The ridiculously long pause, followed by the "no." got me!! 🤣🤣🤣 These videos are just the best!
The way that "No" was delivered and the realization that came before it says a lot about the movie plot.
This was the funniest "no" I've ever heard. 🤣
Coz that is the point. I guess the movie isn't supposed to be complex and have an elaborate plot. This one just gotta be entertaining and it is ) The "no" really hit the spot btw hahah
@@user-sp5uz9rv5n It's like a whole intro for a movie really
Exactly!
4:25
I'm just waiting for the day when he tricks us all and says "Really hard, a massive inconvenience"
Oh he already did that, I just can’t remember which pitch meetings it was.
@@firewolf950tfwgaming7 Space Jam 2. It was hilarious: - "Oh, it's going to be hard for the audience to feel any stakes if the scoring is arbitrary." - "Actually, yep."
I went back and it was also in the man of steel pitch meeting. Although I swear there was another.
It was in man of steel, super difficult very much an inconvenience lol Watch it it’s great
He already has, his opposite catchphrase is "Super Difficult, Very Much an Inconvenience"
This is about as true as I figured it would be. This being said, why haven't you done a "Free Guy" pitch meeting yet?
" ... No." You kill me!! I knew from the previews I never wanted to waste time on this movie. Your screen pitch is pure gold!! I'm laughing so hard! You slayed!
Ryan Reynolds has the easiest job playing himself in every movie.
The Rock often does the same
As does Gal Gadot
Actually is ripping Jason Lee, but that's neither here nor there
omg i died!
Lol
"So then they head to the jungle 'cause we don't really have a choice in the matter" 😂😂😂 So good

The Pitch Meetings on this channel are the only thing keeping it afloat. Without them I would never watch screen rant. You should give Ryan a Raise
Giving Ryan a raise is tight
@JMProductions Yeah yeah yeah!
Which Ryan? The producer or the one who does all the work putting the pitch together?
@@SimonASNG or were you refering to Ryan Reynolds.
This had me confused too. But I believe Gal Gadot had to intercept the call to the FBI so that the call didn't raise suspension and put the FBI on their tail as well.
"couldn't they have just followed him to the location of the third egg instead of doing everything up until this point?" "...........no" "Oh O.K.!" Perfect delivery, wow wow wow.
I thought we were going to get a “sir, I’m gonna need you to get all the way off my back” at that point
👏👏
It was so much better
I always say that sometimes, dead silence can be funny as hell.
... ... ... wow.
I love the fact that Ryan didn't bother to refer to the character's names, since the actors clearly didn't bother to really "play" characters.
Which is kind of the main selling point of the movie
Oh my God dude you've taken this to the next level with these pitch meetings! You hit every bullseye comedically and satirically it is truly an art form. Such a brilliant and accurate critique of these blockbuster-aspiring formulas! You make me feel like I'm not the only sane person
0:54 “Who else would he be” Me: a rock
We got a rare 2 “super-easy barely and inconvenience” in this one. Fantastic!!
Having two SEBAIs in one Pitch Meeting is tight!
Wow wow wow wow…. Wow
Oh saying the catchphrase super easy barely an inconvenience twice is tight
It’s as rare as one of Cleopatra’s golden eggs.
Didn't even have to get all the way off his back on that.
"This isn't so much a twist ending as it is a .... spin cycle." -- TRUTH.
lol.. I died from the laughter
It's a spin cycle ending
in case someone didnt get it, even though they found it funny, spin cycle is what reference to washing your clothes in a washing machine.
I immediately thought of the use of a spin cycle in "The Great Outdoors."
Very similar to the ending of "Wild Things."
This movie was so good that it got a double "Super easy, barely an inconvenience"moment. Incredible
"Wow, this isn't so much a twist ending as a spin cycle." **dies**
“So they put him in a Russian prison.” “Right, the FBI sends Russia valuable prisoners all the time.”
No this is Interpol and no one actually knows what they do or don't do, so it's totally fine!
@@paulelderson934 makes total sense both of them get shipped off to the same Russian gulag in the middle of nowhere, it's so believable!
Sending prisoners to Russia is tight
"Stealing eggs is tight" "Alright" 😂😂😂 Cracked me up
Ha ha ha h! You made another egg joke
Would have cracked the egg, too! LOL
Lol
Must be a WWE fan
I can't tell what the joke eggsactly is
"Wow,wow,wow,wow...wow" and "super easy, Barely an inconvenience " gets me everytime
"Is that going to be hard to do?" "Actually it's going to be super easy, barely an inconvenience!" I literally live for that line it's my favorite line in every pitch meeting video!
I watched this movie less than a week ago and had forgotten everything about it except that it had The Rock, Ryan Reynolds, and Gal Gadot. When the pitch meeting started, I was like, "Oh, yeah! Art thieves."
thanks for the tip. not seeing this film will be super easy, barely an inconvenience!
This seems it was a master piece
Movie was ok, but if it wasn’t for them it would have been another Netflix movie, but still ok
I went thru the exact same cycle. I remembered that I had seen the movie and who the actors were, but it wasn't until the pitch started that I remembered they were art thieves in this one.
Lol I dint remember anything other then the actors either lol 😂
Funny that you pitched the movie exactly the way i pitched it to my gf: "Look Honey, it's The Rock, Ryan Reynolds and Gal Gadot. We're gonna see it sooner or later, let's be among the first to watch it so we're ahead of the curve on this one and can watch Ryan George without spoiling anything"
No, no, no! You got it back to front. You spoiled Ryan George by watching the movie first!
@@TheSirEgg Yeap, thats how things work, we dont see movies anymore, only Ryan
@@r7diego indeed it saves me a lot of time and inconvenience and it is not difficult either.
That is exactly what I was pitching to my family! We all watch Ryan and when they were building the wall we all said almost at the same time "this is when he's going to say barely an inconvenience"lol. That one was easy to see coming. I wonder how many other people were thinking the same thing? Crazy world
This is the exact kind of movie you don't even bother watching but still want to know how ridiculous it's going to be and Ryan is here to do us all a favor.
The delay on, "... No." after Producer Guy questions if they could have just followed Ryan Reynolds instead of doing everything else. Chef kiss.
Consistently well done even after all these years and numerous episodes. Great writing that never has cheap shots or reaches for things to criticize. And the performers timing is fantastique.
At this point, Pitch Meeting is basically Rotten Tomatoes for me.
Not to mention way more reliable.
And way more funny
Except good.
Way better
Except it's more accurate and valid😂
Ryan saying "barely an inconvinience" always leaves me satisfied
Always being left satisfied by Ryan George is TIGHT!
Oh REALLY?
My favorite is whoopsie
gross
@@AW-mm3kx DO YOU EVEN HEAR YOURSELF SOMETIMES?
5:25 this is the major problem with the heavy use of cars in The Walking Dead
The way Ryan said “What” to the liquor reveals was exactly the same, exactly 10 seconds apart 😂
That “no” at 4:26 is the best line delivery I’ve ever heard
I rewound it three times to hear it again.
100%
I like how scriptwriter guy becomes increasingly uncomfortable with producer guy's TIGHT comments and at this point just accepts it
That's called character development 🤣
Another recurring theme (not in this one but it happens more often recently) is that Screenwriter guy slowly breaks Producer Guy's will to be a producer. 'Old' was epic for that.
Omg you have a reply back from the legend himself!! I’m so jelous
@@fabiandurr6865 my favorite was the Twilight movie. He just kept taking long pauses and is like".....what are we doing here?"
@@SGTcrackey666 are you sure it’s not the intern?! 😋
Dear screen rant and Ryan George, please make pitch meetings for these movies because of their popularity: 1. Free Guy, 2. What if, 3. Dune, 4. Army of thieves, 5. Resident evil: welcome to raccoon city
So true. This really just felt like a series of random happenings to justify Ryan Reynolds being Ryan Reynolds, the Rock being the Rock, and Gal Godot thrown in to be the sexy and clever woman.
Brilliant! Having them play themselves. The ultimate method acting, they've practiced years for this, you could say they were born for these roles!
To be fair, nowadays playing as yourself probably makes you more marketable. "Blending" into a role might make you less memorable to modern audiences, and therefore less in demand by studios.
And complete with advertising the actors' own products? It's the pinnacle of creative bankruptcy! This movie can only be seen as a parody of films in general.
@@ashram12 Nope, not at all. There's still plenty of examples of memorable characters in cinema. Superheroes, any character from Tarantino's movies, Hugh Jackman is famously known as Wolverine and PT Barnum; two completely different characters; hell even Adam Sandler is now remembered by most people as the depressing jewelry dealer. Ryan, Dwayne, Kevin Hart, etc. just don't have that acting range.
@@LuigiGamesful I never said that character actors don't exist anymore, I said that an actor who can play as "themselves" probably has an easier time marketing themselves. As for Ryan Reynolds and Dwayne Johnson's acting range, I'm not going to comment on that. Adam Sandler was an actor who was thought to have no range, and surprised everyone with "Punch Drunk Love". It's the double-edged sword of having found your niche: casting directors may feel your personality is precisely what the movie needs, but then they can't see you in any roles that deviate from that.
@@ashram12 Ah I see, in that case I agree with you.
Can’t believe I’m saying this, but WWE had a better plot advertising this movie than the movie itself.
$100 Million egg!
6:24 What’s weird is that despite the huge opening, pretty much everyone’s opinion about this film is that it sure is a film that exists.
3:38 "Oh, bad guys love masquerade parties!" "They deeply do, sir!" *Rotschilds nodding in Eyes Wide Shut ball*
You could extend this pitch meeting by 5 minutes just by elaborating on all the things that don't make any sense in their plan after you know the twist, for example, even if Gal Gadot were to know about the prison wall and had influence inside the prison, that information clearly didn't reach the guards as they clearly intended to shoot to kill, for example with the bazooka, it was no way probable that Dwayne Johnsson survived. The easiest solution was just to capture and torture the information from Ryan Reynolds since it was Dwayne who knew his location in the first place, or just to follow him instead of arresting him, but I guess then we wouldn't have a movie lol...
So True
I'm gonna need you to get all the way off my back about this logic stuff
"Rock jenga" ..
Don't forget all this happened... "So that the movie can happen"
Shut up Karen.
“They also double cross Ed Sheeran.” “Makes sense to m- wait what?”
I'm surprised he didn't mention the cringey Ed Sheerhan cameo.

for some reason at 5:33 the ways he says "some bunkers have waterfalls" is so real and sounds so defeated it's hilarious xD
Thank you so much for doing this one. I wish u could have commented on how they just phone in all their lines

I love that thing Ryan George does with his head when he says "Super easy, barely an inconvenience."
Oh really?

It's wierd watching older pitch meetings where he doesn't do it. Just seems off.
“And Dwayne Johnsons character is dwayne johnson” “Who else would he be” Nailed it.
Please do Lost in Space! It's a great show, would love to see your take on it. It would be like, so then they're going to fly their spaceship from the planet to the mothership. Oh that sounds super easy. Actually it's going to be massively difficult with countless inconveniences.
It's funny how Ryan is the only one here that ended up having a successful CBM franchise even after being in the widely hated Blade Trinity and Green Lantern.

You do very amazing work with these movie pitches. They are funny and I love them because they are so true for the most part and even if the movie is good you can find a way to twist it to be funny in so many way. Well done.
Cast 3 actors that have no range than the range they currently have, that’s a golden egg right there
"There's this old old car from World War 2 there, so they drive that right through the tunnel" "The car still works after 80 years of being in a bunker" "Why wouldn't it?" This cracks me up too. 😂😂😂
it's not as bad as Battlefield Earth where some 200 year old Harrier jets are working perfectly and they know how to fly them. I know Ryan's terrified of Scientology but there needs to be a PM on Battlefield Earth
@@kellnola lol😂😂😂 I guess some technology are immortal
The twist ending of every pitch meeting is that it was only one guy the whole time. Gets me every time
"Jungles of Argentina" is such an odd choice. Pretty much every other location in the movie is pretty stereotypical - bullfighting ring for Spain, pyramids for Egypt, but then jungles are so atypical of Argentina. Misiones Province, does have patches of subtropical rainforest, but it's not exactly the Amazon or the Congo, it's pretty fragmented. The coordinates shown on screen in the movie do take you to a patch of rainforest in Misiones province, but that patch measures about 150 sq km - not exactly a vast, trackless wilderness in which to hide. Giving the film a little bit of leeway, there is the larger Iguazu National Park nearby, about 4 times the size, but it is also home to one of the biggest tourist attractions in South America, Iguazu Falls, which has already a popular destination by the time of WWII. Many Nazis of course did go to Argentina after the war, but most went to Patagonia, which is much more remote and sparsely populated. And it sure ain't jungle - most of Patagonia is dry, treeless, windswept and cold. There are forests around the lower slopes of the Andes, but they aren't jungle, and they're punctuated by alpine lakes and glaciers.
Don't overthink it. It's an Uncharted homage. Which itself is an Indiana Jones homage.
If a country has any patch of jungle the Rock will find it.
Dwayne Johnson likes jungles, that's all there is to it
@@eyeswulf overthinking it is basically my whole deal.
@@eyeswulf I mean... I don't know much about Uncharted, but it wasn't set in Argentina. It seems to be mainly set in Panama and Colombia, from what I can tell - countries that have heaps of jungle. I'm not sure why Argentina...
I know this is kinda random, but you should totally do a pitch meeting for Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. It was actually a pretty decent action movie, but it's still just so ripe for the 'pitch meetings' treatment:)
Too much of an inconvenience
Yeahyeahyeah
OoooooOOOOoooo I forgot about that movie! What a gem... An easily mocked gem!
Lol yes I’d love to see that one
I freaking love that movie. They used history so well it’s almost as if Lincoln was an actual vampire Hunter.
99% of the time the pitch meeting is better than the movie...and you don't even need to watch the movie to enjoy these pitch meetings... I'm addicted to it 😻
I love how every "its going to be super easy barely an inconvenience" "oh really" is the exact same take every time😆
I'm honestly surprised Ryan Reynolds hasn't stepped in for a pitch meeting and Ryan comes in at the end confused as to why someone in this universe all of a sudden looks different (with no glasses)
I want this sooooo bad.
Yes
