00:00 ♪ Mine isn't cool, no I don't like you ♪

00:04 Taylor Swift is not just a genius songwriter.

00:07 She's a blockbuster film director now too,

00:10 with the anticipated release of her new film

00:12 of her Eras Tour.

00:13 (dramatic music)

00:16 - Welcome to the Eras Tour.

00:17 (audience cheering)

00:18 - Taylor's music videos are also known

00:20 for captive storytelling,

00:22 and incredible production value as well.

00:25 So much so that there's a case to be made

00:27 that some of her music videos

00:29 should actually be turned into full length feature films.

00:32 ♪ What you just made me do ♪

00:33 ♪ Look what you just made me do ♪

00:35 So, with that being said,

00:37 here are the best potential feature film adaptations

00:41 of Taylor Swift's music videos.

00:43 We're gonna get it kicked off here with All Too Well.

00:46 ♪ We're in all too well ♪

00:49 A music video that's already been created

00:54 as a 10 minute long emotional roller coaster.

00:57 This feature film version would dive deeper

01:00 into the heartbreaking tale of a short-lived relationship

01:04 that crumbles due to a significant age gap.

01:07 Set against the changing seasons,

01:10 the film would capture the couple's love

01:12 during a warm autumn,

01:14 as it's filled with joy and togetherness.

01:16 ♪ We're dancing 'round the kitchen ♪

01:18 ♪ In the refrigerator light ♪

01:21 However, as winter arrives,

01:23 and it's a harsh winter indeed,

01:25 their relationship also faces the harsh realities

01:28 of the seasons changing.

01:30 Will the couple persevere?

01:32 I'm sorry, you're making me

01:33 really making the entire night about you.

01:34 - You were the perfect husband,

01:35 you didn't even look at me.

01:36 - Well, let's add some horror in there as well,

01:38 because why not spice it up?

01:40 So picture this, they're in an abandoned cabin in the woods,

01:43 and there's a masked serial killer on the loose.

01:46 ♪ They come with prices and vices ♪

01:49 ♪ I end up in crisis ♪

01:51 And here comes the climax,

01:53 where we reveal that the masked serial killer

01:55 is in fact Kanye West.

01:57 Ah, I love me a good horror twist.

02:02 Although I feel like the Kanye serial killer part

02:06 has a chance of actually happening in the real world.

02:09 Antihero.

02:10 Imagine turning Taylor Swift's Antihero

02:12 into a blockbuster film.

02:14 We'd step into the life of a wealthy woman,

02:16 who upon passing unexpectedly,

02:18 leaves her self-centered family in utter shock.

02:21 And when the will is read,

02:22 well, picture her kids gathering,

02:24 all expecting a larger slice of the fortune than the other.

02:28 Only to find out that their mother

02:30 has left them with zilch, zero.

02:32 Cue the confusion and the family drama,

02:34 as they try to figure out

02:35 why on earth she would do such a thing.

02:37 But here's the twist,

02:38 the woman's motive behind doing so

02:41 is not some secret treasure or long lost relative

02:45 who she secretly gave the money to,

02:47 but she just wanted to stir up chaos from beyond the grave.

02:50 She literally left them with nothing

02:52 just to remind them that she's the problem, it's her.

02:56 And hey, if you got similar vibes

02:58 from this adaptation to A Knives Out,

03:02 well, consider this movie as another addition

03:04 to the Knives Out franchise,

03:06 where Daniel Craig and Taylor Swift

03:08 come together and solve some sort of weird,

03:11 mystery, crimes and family stuff,

03:14 and well, it's a duo that the world needs right now.

03:17 You Belong With Me.

03:18 All right, picture this one.

03:20 It's a cute, but overlooked high school girl

03:23 quietly crushing on her neighbor

03:24 who's hooking up with the popular,

03:26 but seemingly insensitive cheerleader.

03:28 I know what you're thinking.

03:29 ♪ You belong with me ♪

03:33 Where's the calm in this rom-com?

03:35 Well, I say we sprinkle in a little unexpected scene

03:39 where Dan Levy plays the boy's dad

03:41 and walks into the kitchen

03:42 to see his son making love to an apple pie.

03:45 And ta-da, it's a masterpiece.

03:48 Cherry pie would work as well.

03:50 Anyways, our female protagonist, the high school girl,

03:52 who wears t-shirts instead of short skirts,

03:55 would dive into a journey of self-discovery and young love,

03:58 while she's desperately trying to make her crush see

04:01 that she's the one who truly gets him.

04:04 She's also learning a crucial lesson along the way.

04:07 You can't force someone to love you.

04:09 I still think the pie scene

04:10 should be squeezed in there somehow,

04:12 but we can leave that on the side for now.

04:16 The Man.

04:17 Okay, picture this one.

04:18 Ricky Gervais, our protagonist, gets a magical makeover,

04:22 transforming into a woman

04:24 to confront his own not-so-great behavior.

04:27 Now, Ricky Gervais has to experience life

04:29 through a female lens.

04:31 Why Ricky?

04:32 Well, he's just perfect for this role.

04:34 As Requina, as she now goes by,

04:37 navigates her newfound identity,

04:39 this movie dives deep into the stark differences

04:42 in societal expectations and privileges

04:44 between male and female.

04:46 And she is thrust into a world

04:48 where stereotypes and personal biases,

04:50 as well as double standards, become glaringly obvious.

04:54 The journey becomes a quest to challenge

04:56 and break down all the preconceptions,

04:58 while really championing the cause of gender equality.

05:01 It's Ricky Gervais' dream scenario.

05:04 Delicate.

05:05 See, not every Taylor film can have a comedy aspect.

05:08 This story would revolve around a young woman

05:10 who wakes up one morning

05:11 and is invisible to the rest of the world.

05:14 Initially hating the solitude and isolation

05:17 that come with her new circumstances,

05:19 she eventually discovers the silver lining.

05:21 She can get away with whatever the heck she wants.

05:25 Oh, well, maybe this could be a comedy.

05:28 See, as she learns to relish her invisible existence,

05:31 the character starts to embrace the freedom that it offers

05:34 when you're completely invisible

05:36 to everyone else around you.

05:37 She starts taking iPhones from Apple stores for free

05:40 and unlimited samples from the local ice cream shop.

05:44 And she's swinging on the park swings

05:46 to scare other people who are watching

05:48 and makes them think that there's a ghost on the swings

05:51 when it's really just this invisible woman.

05:53 It's genius.

05:54 I actually, I don't think it's a comedy anymore.

05:56 Because throughout the narrative,

05:57 she encounters others who share the same hidden status.

06:00 And they each come together to form a unique community

06:03 where they're just completely unbothered

06:05 by society's judgment.

06:06 And the core message starts to unfold,

06:08 which is that being delicate

06:10 is not synonymous with being invisible.

06:13 Instead, it's about discovering strength

06:15 and authenticity within one's vulnerability.

06:17 And of course, robbing Apple stores

06:19 to try the newest iPhone for free.

06:21 Hours.

06:22 ♪ But this love is ours ♪

06:25 - The movie unfolds the story

06:27 of an underappreciated office worker

06:29 navigating the trials of a demanding workload

06:32 and a challenging boss.

06:34 But then she meets her new flashy coworker,

06:36 and it's Brad Pitt.

06:38 And as this connection starts to deepen,

06:40 fueled by flirting and camaraderie,

06:43 Taylor Swift, our protagonist, and Brad Pitt

06:46 find the courage to break free

06:48 from this terrible nine-to-five monotonous routine.

06:51 And the film becomes a journey

06:52 of self-discovery and empowerment

06:54 as Taylor chooses honest and self-expression

06:57 over the walls of a nine-to-five job.

07:00 And then they all start fighting in underground club scenes

07:03 and betting on each other.

07:04 And it sounds like,

07:05 it sounds like Fight Club.

07:07 Yeah, because it is Fight Club.

07:10 All right, Blank Space.

07:11 Finally, a horror movie.

07:13 ♪ Babes, you can call me when it's over ♪

07:16 - It's a chilling tale of a lonely cat lady

07:18 who lives by herself in a huge, dark mansion.

07:20 She's able to continuously lure these men

07:22 into her house and her world

07:24 by playing this facade as a sugar mama.

07:27 However, she's really just trapping these men

07:29 in her basement, and they are never to be seen again.

07:31 This role screams Amy Schumer, in my opinion,

07:34 'cause it just does.

07:35 And then there's that climactic scene

07:37 where all these rich and pretentious guys

07:39 are forced to watch a full season

07:41 of Keeping Up With The Kardashians.

07:43 And then Amy Schumer comes back in

07:44 and she comes downstairs and she screams,

07:47 "Darling, I'm a nightmare!

07:49 "Dress like a daydream!"

07:50 And all the guys are like, "Oh my God!"

07:53 And then we roll the credits.

07:54 Wildest Dream.

07:55 ♪ Daring in a nice dress, daring at the sunset ♪

07:59 - Set against the stunning backdrop of the African tundra,

08:02 the film unfolds the story of two actors

08:05 brought together to shoot a movie.

08:06 See, their lives are colliding

08:08 against a breathtaking landscape.

08:10 And amidst the on-set chaos,

08:11 a passionate love affair begins and starts to blossom.

08:15 See, when they return to the US, however,

08:18 for the premiere of this movie,

08:20 the harsh reality sets in,

08:22 and their overseas love affair

08:24 turns out to just have been

08:25 a spur-of-the-moment type of thing.

08:27 And now they have to navigate the aftermath.

08:29 Is their love sustainable?

08:31 Was it true love?

08:33 Is this just the Lion King in disguise

08:35 and being filmed for the fifth time?

08:37 I don't know.

08:38 We've yet to find out.

08:39 All right, Bad Blood.

08:41 ♪ 'Cause baby now we got bad blood ♪

08:44 - Ah, the heart-pounding world of female assassins,

08:47 where style and sensuality and rebellion

08:49 all come together and collide.

08:51 This sci-fi and action-packed story

08:53 would revolve around a dynamic assassin duo

08:56 until one betrays the other,

08:57 leaving her for dead with a dagger to her back.

09:01 And in a twist of fate,

09:02 the betrayed assassin, obviously being played by Taylor Swift,

09:07 is miraculously rescued by a brilliant scientist,

09:10 obviously being played by Timothee Chalamet,

09:13 who rebuilds her and transforms her

09:16 into this machine AI version of an assassin

09:19 who seeks revenge.

09:21 So will robot Taylor get her revenge

09:23 on her other assassin partner,

09:25 who did I mention was Katy Perry?

09:27 I can't wait to watch this one.

09:29 So, which one of these movies

09:30 would you be most excited to see?

09:33 Have you seen all of Taylor's music videos?

09:35 If so, which ones are your favorite?

09:37 Let us know down in the comments below.

09:39 Me, well, I can't wait to see Ricky Gervais in a dress.
