• 9:04
  Speaker 4: She's got work already, She's got many jobs lined up.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: I guess people are really divided on this Timothy Challome.
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: Movie, Marty Supreme, Marty.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: Supreme, Like all the critics seem to love it, and
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: then but then people go see it and they.
• 9:17
  Speaker 5: Go, well, those people are so unlikable. Yeah, they're unlikable. Yeah,
• 9:24
  Speaker 5: that doesn't bother me. As difficult themes don't bother me either,
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: Yeah exactly. Uh yeah, Rebecca thought it was great.
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: She put it in her that's what's it called, Marty Supreme? Yeah,
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: all right, now that's people want to know where that
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: list is New York Times.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: It just yeah, look, just search the New York Times.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: And I don't know when it came out. It's been
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: a while.
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: One hundred best movies of the twenty first century, first century.
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: You could google that. You can find it.
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: And then argue amongst yourselves about what should be on
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: the list and isn't and should be higher and should
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: be low.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: It's interesting they did let me find that really quick.
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: They did a bunch of other ones too. Uh so
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: if you have that list, but then you have at
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: the end of the whole list they've they've done other
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: lists that they put together that are similar, which is
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: which are fascinating like.
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: These they have. Oh I can't find it now, My
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: damn it.
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: My DVR was supposed to get movies on pbs A
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: Movies in Utah, but it accidentally grabbed American Masters Dick
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: Van Dyke and we watched that last time.
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: It was very good. I didn't realize how important.
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: I mean, I always knew he was important, but I
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: didn't realize how important he was. And just I mean,
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: just for Mary Poppins and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang alone,
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: you know, you could you could take away the rest
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: of the stuff and just go like that. But very
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: important performer through the years. And but the drawback is
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: that you wouldn't have Jim Carrey if not for Dick
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: Van Dyke.
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: It's true, that's the drawback.
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: Rack you can blame Dick Van Dyke for Jim Carrey.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: Is that where you're going?
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: Because Jim Carrey was heavily influenced by Dick van the Physical,
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: Physical comedy
