  Dead and maiden. The sun is shining, not a cloud in the sky.
• 0:05
  We wouldn't know because we're so happy inside. Some people boater boot on
• 0:12
  some skis, but we would rather sit on down and talk some movies.
• 0:17
  Where the Abbot Indoorsmen gun listen to our show. We're the Abbot indoorsmen at
• 0:25
  home on the go. We're the Abbot indoors Man. So come on in
• 0:32
  and stay. We'll do our best to make you smile. We're indoors man.
• 0:40
  What is happening? I'm Roba ln quiz, but I'm be and we're
• 0:44
  the Abo Indoorsman. Hello everyone, Hello, how are you buddy? You
• 0:48
  know I'm doing well? Pal? Just uh yeah, I don't really know
• 0:52
  what I've been doing. It's just been hanging out. Life is good.
• 0:56
  Well. We we had a ton that we had done in a row,
• 0:59
  and so we actually had at least a full week off of doing these are
• 1:08
  I have been good? We we were a little busy. We went and
• 1:11
  did CMA Fest. Yeah, that was fun. And then we finally got
• 1:18
  to do the uh, we finally got to do the thing that we have
• 1:22
  been keeping a secret for so long. For so long, we released a
• 1:26
  tune that we well Chance wrote for the Ubisoft game Skull and Bones. So
• 1:36
  cool, I'm that, And so we got to do their big like launch
• 1:41
  event. Um it's usually like the E three convention, but Ubisoft decided to
• 1:46
  do their own thing. Yeah yeah, yeah, which I think was the
• 1:49
  first time they'd ever done that, and we got to be a part of
• 1:53
  it. And it was interesting to be a part of that because like UBI
• 1:57
  soft Forward was trending, and then also Skull and Bones was trending on Twitter.
• 2:04
  But the reason Sculling Bones is trending is because it has been delayed and
• 2:07
  pushed back. This game has been like they announced it six or seven years
• 2:15
  ago, but it just keeps getting pushed back. And so while people thought
• 2:21
  that what we did was cool, they were also like they just got us
• 2:24
  a band and they're not telling us anything about this. Is this game ever
• 2:29
  going to happen? Right? But it does sound like it's getting closer so
• 2:34
  well, and they, I mean they have dates at least for an open
• 2:37
  beta. I think was right. I was able to watch nice. It
• 2:44
  was cool. Yeah. I was wondering if it was like was it super
• 2:46
  high stress there or like we're people pretty cool I just think what the vibe
• 2:52
  would have been like, Yeah, I mean they there was a ton of
• 2:57
  security because they didn't want people, you know, going in and stealing stuff
• 3:01
  or whatever. Sum So the security was really high. The people that all
• 3:07
  worked with us were really cool though. They had stage manager that seemed really
• 3:12
  on top of it. Um and yeah, so the day before we had
• 3:15
  to do like a bunch of rehearsals because they wanted this stuff. Yeah cool.
• 3:21
  So everything went really smooth and that's nice. People were really nice.
• 3:25
  That makes all the difference. Those without a good stage manager, those events
• 3:29
  can just be a nightmare. Yeah. Yeah, So it was fun and
• 3:32
  it's a chance just knocked that song out of the park. Yeah, that's
• 3:38
  beautiful. So it was fun. Oh and I'm so glad that because I
• 3:43
  didn't even know for a very long time obviously, and even then I didn't
• 3:46
  know all the details because it was very hush hush, and I was just
• 3:51
  I lived in fear of like being the one that screwed it up somehow,
• 3:54
  right, So I was like, I'm not telling anybody and newbody. Yeah
• 3:59
  man, often so super cool. Man, that's awesome. It was cool.
• 4:02
  Yeah. Yeah, but now we get to talk about some movies and
• 4:05
  I'm excited to hear what the last movie you watched was. Yeah, so
• 4:10
  I went to the huh and very high brow stuff. Rob I went with
• 4:14
  our buddy Dave and I saw Transformers Rise of the Beasts. I didn't even
• 4:18
  know that was out. It came out last week and Dave and I were
• 4:23
  like, I don't know, should we go? Yeah, let's go.
• 4:26
  It was honestly pretty fun. It was. It was a good time.
• 4:30
  It's got our guy, Anthony Ramos in it, and Dominique Fishback is in
• 4:34
  it too, who we both love as well from Judas in The Black Messiah.
• 4:39
  Yeah, she doesn't get to do a ton but the stuff, well,
• 4:43
  either of them, right, because it's robots fighting for a great portion
• 4:46
  of the movie. But they're both really great in the parts they get.
• 4:50
  It's a pretty fun story. It's kind of a new twist on things,
• 4:54
  and it's I mean, in a lot of ways, it's exactly what you
• 4:58
  think it's gonna be. It was. It was fun, it was silly,
• 5:00
  it was loud, and it was I had fun though. I liked
• 5:03
  it. Oh that's cool. Yeah. Yeah, So if you like the
• 5:06
  Transformer movies, you'll probably like it it had been. I saw Bumblebee,
• 5:12
  which I actually really enjoyed. I liked Bumblebee too. Yeah, Bumblebee was
• 5:15
  super fun. I think it's more like Bumblebee than like the other Transformer movies
• 5:19
  that came before it. So Bumblebee, Tuna, your balls are showing.
• 5:29
  But yeah, it was fun and we had a nice time just going for
• 5:32
  a little summer blockbuster in the theater. It was nice. It was nice.
• 5:36
  How about you, though, what's the most recent movie you've watched?
• 5:41
  Also went to the theater? I went with I went with our buddy Chatham
• 5:46
  and our buddy Adam Rupp to the theater when we were in Nashville. Yeah,
• 5:50
  and checked out Spider Man Across the Spider Verse. Why didn't I talk
• 5:56
  about that one? I did too, and I did great. Well,
• 6:00
  I'll talk about it for my next thing. So yeah, go go go.
• 6:01
  What did you so? I I loved it? Incredible film. The
• 6:09
  first one was amazing, and they just upped the game even more on this
• 6:13
  one with even more impressive animation, which is pretty cool. Yeah. I
• 6:17
  saw this on a giant Imax screen down there at the Opry Mills, and
• 6:23
  it was breathtaking. It was so gorgeous, right yeah. Yeah. The
• 6:29
  visuals are insane. The cast list is crazy stacked. I can't even go
• 6:32
  through all the names, but it was insanity. The story is compelling,
• 6:36
  and they definitely have left it open for another movie to follow. Ye.
• 6:43
  It was kind of a long day leading up to the theater experience, and
• 6:48
  I definitely have a picture of our good friend Chatham snoozing in like first fifteen
• 6:56
  to twenty minutes. It was funny because I heard snow and I was gonna
• 7:00
  be like, dude, somebody snoring, and it was him, Chatham.
• 7:04
  Can you believe some idiot? Oh my god, it's you, Oh god.
• 7:08
  And so then I quickly took a picture of course he did, which
• 7:13
  I will show you and our patrons. Did you send it to Tim?
• 7:17
  Just like a sap yep. I was like Spider Man's really exciting good areas
• 7:25
  just oh he is out out too, And you can see Adam just like
• 7:30
  mouth open, like this is amazing. It's top though you're leaning back in
• 7:39
  those very cushy chairs, I know, man, And it was like a
• 7:43
  hot day. You finally got some ac probably like snacks. Yeah, man,
• 7:48
  it was funny. We had a good time. Man, that's wild.
• 7:53
  Yeah, that movie is so so good. I so good saw that
• 7:58
  a few days before Transformer and I must not wrote it down on my list
• 8:01
  or something, because why would I not have talked about it. Yeah,
• 8:05
  it's fantastic. I hope we do a podcast on it at some point because
• 8:09
  it's super super fun. Um. It is like the so originally they were
• 8:13
  going to have this be part one of the Part one and part two of
• 8:18
  Across the Spider Verse, but they ended up I can't remember what the last
• 8:22
  one is called, but yes, so it will be a trilogy ultimately.
• 8:26
  Um, and it's just super great. Everything you said is absolutely correct.
• 8:30
  I loved it a ton. It's absolutely beautiful. Yeah, and just like
• 8:39
  such a good example of doing a story that would be so hard to do
• 8:43
  live action. That like good for them for you know, utilizing the format
• 8:48
  right because you can never get all these people and you know, all this,
• 8:52
  like the style changes and stuff. I just think all that stuff is
• 8:54
  so great and like probably pains akingly you know figured out, Like it's just
• 9:01
  so fun, like the different drawing styles for different characters and yeah, you
• 9:07
  know I love all that, which I'm just worried that it's going to take
• 9:11
  because it is so intense and so amazing. I feel like it's going to
• 9:13
  take like three years for the next one to come out. Next one's coming
• 9:16
  out next fall, yes, no, next summer, maybe even something like
• 9:20
  that, like a year from now. So I think they they announced these
• 9:24
  the two follow ups like immediately after and they started making them at the same
• 9:28
  time. I think smart basically, So at least that's my understanding. I
• 9:33
  mean to take it with a grain of salt, but yeah, that's my
• 9:35
  understanding. So nice. Yeah, that's what I've been streaming. I guess
• 9:39
  how about you? What have you been streaming? I finished The Marvelous Missus
• 9:46
  Maizel season five and it's the end of the series. Okay, that was
• 9:50
  the other thing I was going to talk about. So this works out fine,
• 9:52
  This works out great, except I screwed up and forgot them put in
• 9:56
  dumb Transformers dom so that it was wonderful. Man, some really cool stuff
• 10:05
  in this last season, and we get to see these characters in the future.
• 10:07
  There's a bunch of flash forwards. It's really fun to see how these
• 10:11
  characters end up. But Rachel Brosenhan and Alex Borstein completely crushed their roles.
• 10:20
  I always thought this was a tough show because we had to believe that she
• 10:24
  was a comedian, so she needed to have like actual funny, good material.
• 10:28
  Yeah, and I thought the writers all did an amazing job with that.
• 10:35
  But yeah, very impressive show. I'm sad to see it go,
• 10:37
  but excited to see what these actors end up in next. I did see
• 10:41
  that Rachel Brosenhan is in the running for the James Gunn Superman for Lois Lane.
• 10:50
  Oh yeah, so it was between her and a few folks that I
• 10:56
  saw. At least that's the rumors on like Deadline Hollywood. But yeah,
• 11:01
  nice, Yeah, but these the show is fantastic. I'm gonna I'm very
• 11:05
  sad about it. Yeah, I definitely got emotional. It's a bummer to
• 11:07
  see it go, but I'm totally with you. The flash forwards and stuff
• 11:13
  where I really I felt like, damn it, I should have paid attention
• 11:16
  to the dates more for a little while till I got used to it.
• 11:20
  But they hold your hand pretty well through all that. Yeah, I thought
• 11:24
  it was a super fun way to tell the broader story and like you said,
• 11:30
  show where we're going and all those things, but also not lose that
• 11:33
  like fine detail, which was what was so fun about it. So I
• 11:37
  don't know, I just thought they did a really great job and it I
• 11:41
  think my favorite episode of this entire show was this season and it was the
• 11:46
  The Roast. I loved the episode. Yeah, god, it was lovely
• 11:52
  and yet to see our buddy will well, not our buddy, but guy
• 11:56
  will Sasso in there, which was really fun. He hadn't been in any
• 12:00
  of them. It was a oh, what was the other show called?
• 12:03
  Not SNL but the mad TV? Mad TV? It was like a Mad
• 12:07
  TV reunion, right because that was where I first saw Borstein. I think,
• 12:09
  oh, yeah, back in the day he looked like a man.
• 12:13
  Yes, yes, yes, exactly. But I'm totally with you, I
• 12:16
  think honestly, I almost feel like it was more Alex Borstein's show at the
• 12:22
  end, you know, almost more or as much. I guess it's probably
• 12:26
  the better way to say it than Rachel. So I'm with you on that,
• 12:30
  and I loved it. I thought it it ended so beautifully and so
• 12:33
  perfectly it was. It was really awesome. It was cool to see them,
• 12:37
  you know, stick the landing too, right, Like for sure that
• 12:39
  was awesome for sure. Yeah, but yeah, love it, buddy.
• 12:43

• 13:58
  like to call it our podcast and chill version, where we usually do a
• 14:03
  top five draft that pertains to the movie we're talking about, and surprisingly we
• 14:07
  have not done our top five favorite baseball movies. Yeah, this one was
• 14:13
  fun because we were trying to come up with other ideas and then someone was
• 14:16
  like, I don't think we've ever done baseball. Ye, baseball, Well,
• 14:20
  what are we killing ourselves for? Let's do it. And honestly,
• 14:24
  I feel like there's a lot of good sports movies, a lot of different
• 14:26
  kinds of sports. I feel like baseball's usually pretty solid. It's a super
• 14:33
  good movie sport, I think because it's so like segmented too, like you
• 14:37
  can really like get in the pictures guill, you know, before the pitch
• 14:41
  and all that stuff. Yeah, I'm with you, so I'm excited for
• 14:45
  it. It'll be different now with the shot clock. We'll see how that
• 14:46
  changes the movie as the pitching clock. Yes, yes, pitching clock.
• 14:52
  Right, you're right, but we'll see. We can get into that though,
• 14:54
  you know, as we go along. But coming attractions, A fun
• 15:00
  movie is coming our way, a fish called Wanda. Yes. Now,
• 15:05
  I've seen this movie a bunch. I think I'm more familiar with it than
• 15:07
  you are. But I've seen it once, Yeah, I think just once
• 15:11
  recently, so I'm excited to watch it again though I really liked it.
• 15:15
  Yeah, it's a it's a fun one. Yeah, and we're we're bringing
• 15:18
  in a ringer who has also seen it a number of times, probably close
• 15:22
  to as many times as you. I've said too much. But we are
• 15:24
  here today to talk about a lovely film called The Rookie of the Year,
• 15:30
  which a thirtieth anniversary, that's correct, crazy pants, and uh, honestly,
• 15:37
  this one wasn't a hard one to find a guest for because we knew
• 15:39
  who who. We've talked about this movie with a ton in the past,
• 15:45
  so let's just welcome back. He's our old pal. Give it up for
• 15:48
  Tater Nate Rhoades. What's up, Nate? Oh, hey, guys,

  been anything new and exciting? Yeah? Uh, where do I start?
• 16:08
  Let's see here. Um, I did get a haircut last week. Dude.
• 16:11
  I was gonna say, it looks good. I know you just put
• 16:15
  on your Cubbies hat because of this episode, which is great, but um,
• 16:22
  looks mad. I did it for you guys. Yeah. And then
• 16:26

• 16:41
  the Twins, I'm rooting for the Cubbies. Yeah. I felt okay getting
• 16:45
  when I was in Chicago, I was like, I'll get a cub shirt.
• 16:48
  Why not, I'll pander to the people. I wore it at the
• 16:49
  show that night, and it was cool. It was fun. They're in
• 16:53
  the National League. I don't know the right. I think that's the best
• 16:59
  part about it is I don't feel guilty because we play each other like once
• 17:02
  every four years. Is it's something I think it's more now. But that's
• 17:07
  right. Yeah, but whatever, it doesn't matter. Yeah, I mean,
• 17:11
  we don't compete until we get to Uh. I can't say it because
• 17:17
  I'm going to ruin a movie quote. But you know, yes, you
• 17:19
  stop it. I won't do it. I don't stop it. Well,
• 17:23
  we're excited to have you, man, it's been an excited to be here.

• 17:41
  album he did. He thank you for that hang doors. That is definitely
• 17:51
  how that worked, all of it. Yep, old handy man, Rob,
• 17:56

• 18:08
  think he says, right, says Ace. Well, they could could do
• 18:14
  those vocals for you, Rob, because he's a very talented musician, as
• 18:15
  we all know. Don And here you can go check out the Dumpster Fire
• 18:21
  because they got new music on the way, right pal. Yeah, actually,
• 18:23
  I'm incredibly excited. Actually I have a few new musics on the way.
• 18:29
  Um. My friend Ashley Rose, who I wrote with when I lived
• 18:32
  in Nashville, she has releasing a song that we wrote UM called Nashville and
• 18:37
  it's cool cool one of the favorite songs I've ever been a part of.
• 18:41
  UM so I'm excited for her and um so check out Ashley Rose and also
• 18:47
  um yeah the Dumpster Fire. This also one of the other favorite songs I've
• 18:51
  ever written, UM called Santa Monica. Sunrise is going to be coming out,
• 18:56
  and I've like, we wrote it and we didn't quite know how to
• 19:00
  produce it, so it sat there for like a year and a half.
• 19:03
  And then one day we were writing and we were like screwing off and I
• 19:07
  was like, wait a second, I think this works for that one song.
• 19:11
  So that's awesome. Just hold on because yeah, you never know what's
• 19:15
  gonna happen. It was. It was so fun. I'm really excited for
• 19:18

• 19:22
  I love it. That's great. Yeah, I mean somebody has to
• 19:26
  pick up all the cans on the street. Yeah right, well throws a
• 19:30
  few out for you. Just everyone. I just want to mate might be
• 19:34
  here at some point. You know, I'm gonna just get rid of this
• 19:37
  one. Nate. There's a lot of trash near my yard, come over,
• 19:41
  come on, figure it out? Well, super cool. I think
• 19:47
  we should get right into it because this this could be a lengthy pot because
• 19:49
  I think all of us like this movie a great deal. Yeah, we're
• 19:52
  here to talk about Rookie of the Year. Yes, and that movie.
• 19:59
  Yeah, yes, watch the Right One. I watched the right one,
• 20:04
  rob Why don't you get it started with just a rough sudoption? Okay.
• 20:07
  A freak accident causes twelve year old Little League player Henry to become such a
• 20:12
  powerful and accurate picture that the Chicago cub signed the junior high student to a
• 20:17
  contract. Unprepared for such a high pressure environment, Henry falters until aging fastballer
• 20:23
  chet Steadman takes him under his wing and teaches him how to play in the
• 20:27
  big leagues. Meanwhile, his mother's greedy boyfriend Tells tries to sell Henry's contract
• 20:34
  to a hated opposing team. Hated hated. Love that good read good reading,
• 20:41
  good read. All right, guys, let's uh, let's all,
• 20:45
  let's all get our courage up here, because we're on too rotten tomatoes now
• 20:48
  and this one's not well loved. Critics have it coming in at a pretty
• 20:52
  rock solid thirty eight percent. Yeah, wolfed, Uh, yeah, that's
• 20:57
  pretty tough. That's tough. Although, why would critics like this movie?
• 21:03
  You know what I mean? It's definitely not a critics movie. No,
• 21:06
  they've gave up on hope and enjoy a long time ago. But audience members,
• 21:10
  I was surprised how pessimistic they were. It's at fifty two percent for
• 21:14
  them. Yeah, I know, it's wild. Yeah, I don't know.
• 21:21
  Let's hear what we think about it. It's time for our spicy that's
• 21:27
  a hot take. That's a hot take. I will go first. I
• 21:36
  liked that there was good breathwork there, right, I literally liked that a
• 21:38
  lot. That got me. Um. I will go first on this one.
• 21:42
  I've really enjoyed this movie ever since I first saw it in nineteen ninety
• 21:48
  three. I don't remember if I saw it in a theater or not.
• 21:52
  I'm guessing I probably didn't, just because I grew up in the middle of
• 21:55
  nowhere. But yes, we definitely had the VHS and I watched it a
• 22:00
  lot as a kid. I thought this movie was super fun. A kid
• 22:03
  that you know, kind of gains almost like superpowers and then basically like gets
• 22:08
  to deal with stardom. And all that stuff, and I just thought it
• 22:12
  was super super fun. I think it's really great. Daniel Stern I didn't
• 22:17
  know directed this, Yeah, which kind of makes sense because he gave himself
• 22:22
  a lot of stuff to do, which is funny. And I liked it
• 22:26
  as a kid. I continue to like it. But yeah, I just
• 22:30
  I just think it's a really fun, nice time. There's like a nice
• 22:33
  side story besides the baseball. The baseball is really fun. One continuity air
• 22:41
  when he's throwing the detergent into the washing machine, he's like, all right,
• 22:45
  bottom of the nine, full count, and then call strike one.
• 22:49
  That's pretty brutal, confusing. I forget how baseball works. I was like,
• 22:56
  even I noticed this, and I am not a huge baseball guy.
• 23:00
  Um, but yeah, I just thought that was fun. And uh but
• 23:03
  perhaps my hottest take is how did this team win the World Series when they
• 23:11
  lost their best pitcher and then their best reliever in the same game right before
• 23:15
  the playoffs. Yeah, that's a good that's a very good question. I
• 23:21
  mean it's possible, of course, but like that is that's tough. Let's
• 23:25
  not, let's not they won. They won. It's fine, shut up,
• 23:32
  I guess it didn't have to be that year necessarily, right, Yeah,
• 23:37
  yeah, yeah, I just I thought myself. I was giggling to
• 23:41
  myself after that because I was like, oh, yeah, they do say
• 23:45
  he won, because I was trying to remember if it was that one or
• 23:48
  like a little Big League that I saw that like famous shot. I can
• 23:51
  remember which one it was. Yeah, I was like, oh, it
• 23:55
  is this one, but they lost like two of their best dudes. They
• 23:59
  really did work. But you know, the bats came alive. Man,
• 24:03
  that came alive, buddy, That's all you need to know. But yes,
• 24:06
  overwhelmingly, I liked this movie apparently more than almost anyone that's ever seen
• 24:11
  or Red Rotten Tomatoes. So nice. That's my hot take. That's a
• 24:15
  hot take, buddy, hot hot um. I loved this movie growing up.
• 24:22
  I also don't think I saw it in the theater, but loved it
• 24:27
  so much. It was really fun to rewatch because it had been a very
• 24:33
  long time since I had seen it. I was not aware that it was
• 24:37
  Daniel Stern directed. And I also saw that's the only movie he's ever directed.
• 24:41
  Which's funny is he was like one and done. I'm I'm I'm all
• 24:45
  set. That's a lot of work. Yeah, I'm good, But yeah,
• 24:49
  I think as a movie, it's definitely tailored for kids. I loved
• 24:57
  it when I was younger, and this re watch, I was like,
• 25:00
  oh, I didn't remember them being so cartoony, like all of the side
• 25:06
  characters, aside from Gary Busey, which is kind of weird that he wasn't
• 25:11
  cartoony. He was kind of the straight man, which is very straight.
• 25:15
  I know. I was like, out of all, you know, Daniel
• 25:18
  Stern is off the walls crazy. Um. Dan Hadeia was also like a
• 25:25
  little over the top like all these older guys. Yes, Eddie Bracken was
• 25:30
  way all over the place. So um. You know, as I've gotten
• 25:36
  older, it certainly wouldn't be something that I would probably keep watching because it's
• 25:40
  just it's a kids movie. But I still got all those nostalgic feels.
• 25:45
  I really enjoyed that. Um. And yeah, I love I love Henry
• 25:51
  gardenhozer. He I love that bit. So it's such a great bit.
• 25:57
  Um. But yeah, yeah, it's it's a fun time and I'll probably
• 26:03
  show it to my kids. That'll be the next time I watch. Yeah,
• 26:06
  yeah, but they'll like it. It'll be fun. Yeah, no,
• 26:08
  no crazy hot takes. So that's about all I got. Yeah,
• 26:11
  I get that. What do you got? Well, now I just feel
• 26:17
  childless, childless, childish, childish. You'll know, you'll probably hear my
• 26:26
  child in about thirty minutes not going to bed. So um no, I
• 26:30
  I do watch this every year, once a year, every spring. I
• 26:36
  love that. Um well, I will tell more as we get to later
• 26:42
  in the section, but yes, I do. Every spring. I watch
• 26:45
  a handful of baseball movies and this is one of them. And I actually
• 26:49
  had not watched it this spring because it's been a little hectic here, but
• 26:53
  um, we would watch this in my parents GMC conversion van with the movie
• 27:00
  going to baseball tournaments all the time, so fantastic. Um. I just
• 27:08
  actually watched it tonight doing some inspection reports, and I every time I watch
• 27:15
  it, it just brings back all the fields. Like it's definitely like cheesy
• 27:18
  nineties meant for kids. Yeah, and I'm a perpetual optimist, so um,
• 27:22
  I take the good out of it. But it's so it's really well
• 27:26
  written, and there's so many lines in it that I to this day,
• 27:30
  I'm like, I forget how many lines are in this movie. Total that,
• 27:36
  like I remember that are just ridiculously funny. Um, so not a
• 27:41
  crazy hot take, but I love this movie. And Rotten Tomatoes is absolutely
• 27:45
  wrong and kids Go straight to Hell. Not a hot take, but I
• 27:55
  will burn this place to the ground. That's good. Nice, love it
• 28:03
  nice. Well, let's go in and start talking about some of these acting
• 28:06
  performances. It's time to name the dud dude. Yeah, I'm the dude,
• 28:11
  So that's what you call me, you know that? Or his dude
• 28:15
  noes or duder or you know l dudino. If you're not into the whole
• 28:21
  brevity thing, Nate, who you got for the dude? Buddy? All
• 28:23
  right, my dude, I'm definitely gonna go with Thomas E and Nicholas Yes.
• 28:30
  Love that. Um, it's really hit and miss when you cast kids,
• 28:33
  I think yes, and I'll be honest, him and his three friends
• 28:38
  they played They played the kids so well. I mean, they're kids,
• 28:44
  so that helps. But um, they just felt like I watch it now
• 28:51
  and I'm like, that's exactly how I would have reacted in all totals.
• 28:56
  Very natural friendship too, yeah, buddy, yeah, just so, the
• 29:02
  camaraderie was really good, even with the girls in it, um which there
• 29:07
  are a few lines will get to that I just thought were hilariously stupid.
• 29:11
  Um and they're still funny, but um yeah Thomas Ian Nicholas. I actually
• 29:18
  just watched American Pie the Self three of them with my buddy, because it's
• 29:26
  been like twenty years or whatever, maybe not that long, but um,
• 29:29
  I haven't seen them since they came out. So it was fun sying him
• 29:33
  again, you know in this because I was like, all right, I'll
• 29:37
  hand it to him. This is where he started. Yeah, yeah,
• 29:41
  he's good man. Yeah, he's a good little actor. I'm with you.
• 29:44
  I picked him as well, great little child actor. We see as
• 29:47
  kind of an unathletic, nerdy kind of kid. He's happy, likes hanging
• 29:52
  out with these buddies. He doesn't have like too many dramatic moments in this
• 29:57
  U, which I think probably hell, you know, you just got to
• 30:00
  be kind of overwhelmed by everything that's going on but also having a good time.
• 30:06
  I thought he'd played it really well. I'm with you. Yeah,
• 30:10
  it's a clean sweep. That's who I picked. Two. I thought I
• 30:12
  thought he was great. I actually found myself kind of wanting more of those
• 30:18
  scenes with the kids. To be honest, I was like, they're fun,
• 30:21
  They're very charismatic. This is a good time, you know. But
• 30:25
  yeah, I loved his performance. I thought he was super great. I
• 30:29
  don't know that he had to do anything super crazy, like you guys said,
• 30:32
  but what he did was great. And that's more than we can say
• 30:36
  for some children actors. So I just can't quite pull it off. So
• 30:40
  yeah, I liked it a lot, for sure. I well, why
• 30:42
  don't we move. There are a lot of supporting actors. Why don't we
• 30:45
  move, Let's pick the two chamog chee we got for this one night.
• 30:52
  Who's your two? This was incredibly difficult for me, So yeah, I'm
• 30:57
  gonna have some runner ups here. Oh yeah, we'll have runner ups for
• 31:00
  sure. Um okay, y'all know I love The Wonder Years very much,
• 31:11
  so I'm going with Daniel Stern on this cool. Oh yeah, because he
• 31:17
  was the voice of Friend. Yeah, he was the voice of the Wonder
• 31:21
  Years, so he was adult Kevin Arnold. But I thought his comedy in
• 31:27
  this movie was so spot on, like just so ridiculous. Um, which
• 31:36
  is funny because he's a great dramatic actor. If you see him in a
• 31:38
  handful of other things, and um, but you see him in those nineties
• 31:45
  roles like Home Alone too, and well both of them. But yeah,
• 31:51
  um, I just pictured his scream in that when the spider goes on his
• 31:55
  face, and that unbelievable woman like scream was just incredible. Sorry, that's
• 32:02
  it's everything i'd picture with Daniel stir No. He's just he's such a funny
• 32:07
  dude, and he really was like I look back at that time period and
• 32:12
  he really encapsulates like that type of humor. Yeah, so I definitely because
• 32:17
  of my Wonders Year Wonder Years love picked him. But I do it?
• 32:22
  Did? Should I do a couple quick runner up? Oh no, well
• 32:25
  we'll do our Sorry, I'm looking at the script, but I just wanted
• 32:30
  a double check in case you wanted more for me. Nope, you're good.
• 32:35
  Um. I decided, and I didn't think it at the time that
• 32:38
  I would choose this person, but I'm going to take Amy Morton as Mary
• 32:43
  Rowan. Gardner loved her. Yeah, I didn't think i'd pick her initially,
• 32:47
  but she is one of the few super cartoony characters in this She seemed
• 32:52
  like an awesome mom, even though she was all smoochy with the dude who'd
• 32:57
  only been around for three weeks. Come on, come on, we've all
• 33:01
  been taken away. Yeah, we would begin. I get that we would
• 33:07
  be smoothshe during three weeks, That's not it, But to like bring him
• 33:10
  into the home with your kids. Hire an agent? What are we doing?
• 33:16
  Why are we letting this guy do it right out here? Jack's a
• 33:20
  great agent. He got a twenty five million dollars deal. That's that's a
• 33:23
  good point. He was ruthless. He's my client. But yeah, I'm
• 33:32
  taking Amy Morton. Who did you take Bukes? I had a really difficult
• 33:37
  time with this one as well. Um, I think I will well,
• 33:42
  I'm last, so I can do whatever I want. I will give a
• 33:44
  shout out to Patrick Lebrac and Robert high Gorman, who are the buddies,
• 33:50
  the two friends. I thought they were awesome and I love both of them
• 33:54
  in separate films. Yeah, Patrick is in Heavyweights, Yeah, which is
• 33:59
  a personal favorite. And then Robert is in Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dad
• 34:02
  as the little brother, super super fun. Loved that movie. But I
• 34:08
  just, like you guess said earlier, they just did such a good job
• 34:12
  being like a crew of buddies like they they played that off super super well.
• 34:16
  Um, and it was really really fun. And then just a huge
• 34:21
  shout out to John Candy, who is just a perpetual utter delight. That
• 34:24
  was man, it's just the best in the whole world. I just love
• 34:28
  him, love him so much. He was so fun in this too.
• 34:31
  And him and Daniel Stern again you know they were in home alone together.
• 34:36
  Yeah. Good shout, good shout, Yeah, good shot. Yeah.
• 34:38
  I really like all them, and I have other folks, but I say,
• 34:40
  yeah, Nate, who were you? Runner ups? Well Amy Morton,
• 34:45
  I thought she nailed the goofiness. But also she really nailed it.
• 34:49
  Felt like she was such a good mom, like you just wanted to love
• 34:52
  her. And also I didn't see her in a lot of things until Breaking
• 34:57
  Bad. Um, Oh, she ain't breaking bad. I can't remember her
• 35:01
  and making bad. I believe. Wait, this isn't me not believing,
• 35:07
  did I? Yeah, she's uh, she plays for gray Matter Technology.
• 35:13
  She's the wife, isn't she are we live on air, We'll do it
• 35:21
  live. I've been so long since I've seen Breaking Yeah. Same. I
• 35:25
  can't do side characters, but I believe you. But yeah, she was
• 35:30
  fantastic in this and then John Candy. It was really hard between Amy Morton
• 35:36
  and John Candy. Yeah, just the older I get. And I literally
• 35:38
  tweeted this because well you guys got my tweet about how I love this movie.
• 35:43
  Yeah, I tweeted right before we hopped on how much I love John
• 35:46
  Candy and the older I get, he becomes more endearing to me, and
• 35:52
  I like, there aren't a lot of actors that have that's happened. I
• 35:59
  just every time I watch him, I'm like, he's funny, he's like
• 36:05
  he can be serious. It just he just like hits you in all the
• 36:08
  fields. Absolutely, we just we just did the Great Outdoors and we definitely
• 36:14
  saw his praises because he's just incredible. I'm sorry, I don't listen to
• 36:19
  your podcast, so it's okay, it's not actually out yet. You're good,
• 36:22
  okay, Well as up recording this, wait right, recording this,
• 36:27
  it's not by the time people are hearing it, it's definitely been out.
• 36:30
  Oh well, yeah it's cool. Yeah, yeah, that's nice. Love
• 36:35
  that. But yeah, um yeah, I had to give a shout out
• 36:38
  to Gary Busey. Again. I already said that in my hot take,
• 36:42
  but it was it was fun just seeing him not be crazy Gary Busey and
• 36:46
  just seemed like a kind of grizzled vet that ended up. It was just
• 36:52
  fun seeing his arc too, you know, you get to see him kind
• 36:55
  of lighting up a little bit and he can tell he's got the hots for
• 36:59
  his mom, but all so just wants to help this this kid out,
• 37:01
  and I thought that was yeah. And one very kind of interesting story.
• 37:09
  Tim Faust had seen a random guy. He's like, I have seen this
• 37:15
  guy in movies. I have seen this guy and he's like a character actor.
• 37:22
  He's probably done a hundred things. And so I was like, oh,
• 37:25
  this is I'm going to figure this out. So I like go and
• 37:29
  start sleuthing and and everybody I was saying, He's like, no, that's
• 37:32
  not it. It's not that guy I know. And then we uh,
• 37:36
  like months go by. He never figured it out. We're watching the first
• 37:40
  episode of Ozark and Laura Lenny's who she's cheating on Jason Bateman with was Bruce
• 37:51
  Altman, who is Jack in this movie. But all when that scene came
• 37:57
  on, Tim was like, that's the guy. And so whenever Bruce Altman
• 38:01
  pops up. That is, I will always always think of that. So
• 38:06
  it's just a really full story. It's really funny because I actually noticed that
• 38:09
  during Ozark the first thing I thought of was Rookie of the Year. Yeah
• 38:14
  that's sick. I love it. Yeah, he's in a lot of stuff
• 38:16
  and a lot of things. Yeah, I just did not think of him,
• 38:20
  but yeah, yeah, that's funny. That's funny. Also shout out
• 38:22
  to uh is it call him Jacobson Dursteam called Julie the Cat? Daphne got
• 38:31
  into that yet? Nice? Do you want to start now? I have
• 38:37
  a whole list of notes. What's that? I have a whole list of
• 38:40
  notes on her. Oh, go for it, get into it, man.
• 38:45
  She was the cat's me out. Yeah, I love it. Julie
• 38:52
  the Cat. Yeah, she was probably my biggest crush from a movie um
• 39:00
  growing up. I loved her in Mighty Ducks too and in Brookie of the
• 39:05
  Year, but especially in Mighty Ducks too. Yeah. I don't know.
• 39:07
  I just something about her so nice, that's all I got. Sorry,
• 39:15
  there weren't actually that, man, Okay, I was like, I'm waiting
• 39:16
  for the notes, but yes, she guys, did you guys, notice
• 39:21
  that the warm up catcher is w Earl Brown. Yeah, there's something about
• 39:28
  Mary. Yeah, I didn't notice that her like development of delay brother or
• 39:32
  whatever the Franks and Beans guy, Yes, yeah, um yeah, I
• 39:38
  did not know that and definitely noticed that on this rewatch. And then also
• 39:43
  we got the janitor from Scrubs in there his first basement. Yeah, Neil
• 39:47
  Flynn. Yeah, yeah, that was fun seeing him too. Also,
• 39:52
  um, another one or Years character? Nice? Yeah, John Handy's assistant
• 40:00
  in the booth, Andy Burman. He plays Chuck right, and he's like
• 40:06
  a little neurotic in Wonder Years as well. Yeah he is, He's a
• 40:09
  He was funny. I'm not surprised we haven't seen him in more stuff,
• 40:14
  honestly. Uh. And then we mentioned him in Passing but Dan Hedeia yeah
• 40:19
  or Hadiyah. Uh, he's really great. I really like him a lot.
• 40:22
  Yeah, he's been in some of my favorite movies. So oh yeah
• 40:25
  him a little A little doubt you love Hughes random you had given the shout
• 40:30
  out to George I'm blanking on his um name. But did you ever see
• 40:37
  the movie camp Nowhere with christ Floyd and Hell yeah I did that favorites growing
• 40:45
  up. Oh, I loved it. He's in that briefly nice. Who's
• 40:47
  in that? Oh? One of the character's name is George. Yeah,
• 40:52
  the character who plays George, Um, I'm blanking on his name. You
• 40:55
  said it earlier. The guy had okay, yeah, a little tiny guy.
• 41:01
  Yeah yeah, oh yeah. He makes a little cameo in it.
• 41:05
  And if you go back and watch that movie, there's like seventeen cameos.
• 41:08
  Because all of them are not famous. It's like Camp Nowhere is the equivalent
• 41:15
  of The Outsiders for like, yes, nice. You just go through the
• 41:19
  list of actors and you're like, holy crap, this is before all of
• 41:22
  them were like known. Yeah yeah, Camp Nowhere was fun too. It
• 41:28
  was Yeah, that's a fun, silly that's a fun movie. It's a
• 41:31
  silly, good time class. It's like accepted for kids. Yeah, before
• 41:36
  accepted nice as great movie. Yeah, yeah, for sure, that's great.
• 41:42
  Nice. Well, why don't we pick some of these. Let's pick
• 41:45
  our favorite scene, and let's pick the dingas so dingas. It's quite simple,
• 41:51
  really, dingasas. I can talk about my dingas all night long on
• 41:54
  Nate. What do you got for favorite scene? Favorite scene in Rookie of
• 41:58
  the Year favorite number one favorite scene. I wrote down a few. Do
• 42:06
  you know how difficult this is? I just kept I'd like, write one
• 42:09
  down and then I'd get to another scene and be like, no with this
• 42:13
  one. Um. So I'd start off by saying, any scene with Julie
• 42:15
  the ket Kaffey, Um, yes. I don't want to get heavy on
• 42:23
  this because I will use this scene later form the people that follow this podcast.
• 42:28
  I know the format, but um, I will use this scene.
• 42:31
  Um, when it's Henry's first at bat. Yes, and it's like,
• 42:38
  oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god,
• 42:39
  oh my gun. Yeah, and you see that the cuts to each
• 42:44
  ps coach and yeah, it's and they have a few of those scenes,
• 42:51
  like the one with Hato. It's fair, it's foul, it's fair,
• 42:53
  it's full wrong again Ernie. Um No, but I think, oh my
• 43:00
  god, scene because it like that, that would be my mother. Like
• 43:05
  if I had to go back against some dude throwing yeah, like um and
• 43:12
  me and probably everybody else because I was a horrible batter dude ninety five,
• 43:16
  I can't even imagine. Yeah, like hi eighties, Yeah, it was
• 43:23
  so funny him just standing in the very edge of the corner. I was
• 43:28
  laughing just the farthest back and away. Yeah, that's so. That was
• 43:35
  amazing. And then he actually swings at that, but he's already called it
• 43:43
  a ball. Yeah, that was a good bit. That's a good one.
• 43:49
  I thought that had a lot of comedic value and I didn't want to
• 43:52
  get too sad because we'll do that later. All right, Well, this
• 43:57
  one was super easy for me. Um, and it was for sure the
• 44:01
  doctor's office scene. I have quoted what the doctor says, and that's for
• 44:07
  sure what the name of this uh this episode is going to be. But
• 44:13
  um, I'll wait until the quotes to say it. But his reaction has
• 44:19
  stuck with me my whole life. And then also the reaction from the kids
• 44:25
  who are like did he just Yeah? It makes me laugh so hard and
• 44:32
  it's pretty great. So yeah, that's my favorite scene. I love that.
• 44:38
  Um Honestly, I think I just picked the first step bat scene as
• 44:45
  well. I want to say a different one to have it be original,
• 44:47
  but I just love the whole thing, especially if we continue it on to
• 44:52
  when he's on the basis and running and stuff like that. Whole segment is
• 44:55
  so fun and so silly. Yeah, it's just all that stuff is so
• 45:06
  hilarious. I love that so much. Um. Also, when the boys
• 45:10
  go and sit with the gals at the table, that just cracks me up
• 45:15
  so hard. And oh, maybe I'll save that for quote. I guess
• 45:19
  it's more of a quote than a scene, but I just love that scene.
• 45:21
  And then when they're in the boat together and all that smoke smoke.
• 45:24
  Ye, what are some of your run Well, I was gonna say it
• 45:32
  was hard for me to choose between quotes and scenes, yes, because they're
• 45:38
  so intertwined in this movie. Yeah, but you both picked, well,
• 45:45
  you know ones that I love. I love this scene and it's real quick.
• 45:51
  But where Brigga was locked in the cage, um oh yeah, and
• 45:55
  they cut back and forth. I just it doesn't add to the movie as
• 46:01
  like a storyline at all. But it's such a funny side cut because he
• 46:06
  got stuck in the door earlier in the movie. Oh my gosh, in
• 46:13
  between the two hotel rooms. It's so funny. Oh. I just thought
• 46:20
  there's so many scenes like that in this movie where they're it is just funny.
• 46:25
  It slaps, yeah, like it's it's almost like a throwback seventies kind
• 46:31
  of like um type of comedy, and that really lasted through the early two
• 46:39
  thousands, and it kind of died off when we were about in high school.
• 46:43
  I think, yeah, but it's yeah, they had a lot of
• 46:46
  those, um let's see here a runner up or it would be the float
• 46:52
  it scene. I just yeah, that's every time, like such a right
• 47:00
  moment, just that whole game, just that whole thing, because you get
• 47:05
  Chat blowing out, his arm has to tag out the guy at home.
• 47:07
  We know his career is done. Um, Henry goes in, he's striking
• 47:13
  all the dudes out. Then he trips on the ball, loses his power.
• 47:17
  He's got to get creative. Does the hidden ball trick, which was
• 47:21
  fun. The next one was not as cool as the hidden Ball trick,
• 47:24
  The I Dare you to go? So yeah, I always I always thought
• 47:29
  that was dumb. That was like they were like, well, we've got
• 47:31
  what else could he? Then we've got the float it. You guys think
• 47:38
  we should add yea but yeah, and then you know seeing the the glove
• 47:47
  takes off the tape and it says, Mary, that's that's good stuff.
• 47:53
  It's good stuff right there. So I'm with you, man. My runner
• 47:59
  up was actually Henry. Henry throwing the home run back is great. It's
• 48:04
  a pretty great scene. We get the exposition that they need to sell out
• 48:07
  every game, you know, and then Henry throws the ball all the way
• 48:14
  to the catcher. Everyone stops, which is really fun. Just how they
• 48:17
  shot that, um and yeah the guys who had thrown it before get all
• 48:23
  embarrassed, dumb. Pretty great. It's a fun scene. I will say
• 48:32
  it cracks me up in that scene. The cuts of all of the like
• 48:39
  looks, yeah, um yeah that I love it. Don't get me wrong,
• 48:46
  I'm not trying to knock it, but those are some of the worst
• 48:50
  acting looks. They're all like yeah, very scooby doo, yeah, like
• 48:57
  so fun. I was into it, though, you have yea like no,
• 49:05
  no, no, bigger. I mean that would be insane though,
• 49:07
  because that thing came in like a rocket, a frozen rope from the outfield.
• 49:13
  He through the high cheddar, the high stinking cheddar. Yeah, oh
• 49:17
  my gosh, I used to yell that stuff from the outfield. Oh absolutely,
• 49:22
  for sure, like that in a few natural lines, I would like,
• 49:28
  I'm not joking, that was like what I did I was the obnoxious
• 49:31
  kid, and you know, junior high, well into high school. Like
• 49:37
  on the baseball field, I would wear cups in my eyes when I was
• 49:39
  in the dugout and just yell ridiculous stuff because it was fun. Yeah,
• 49:45
  like that's great. I would just there have a good time. Part of
• 49:47
  the deal, right, Yeah, like it's all part of the part of
• 49:51
  the game. For sure. It was a good era for baseball movies too,
• 49:54
  so there was a lot of material to draw from. Absolutely, dude,
• 49:58
  so many good baseball movies. I'm glad we're doing that draft. Well,
• 50:02
  um, why don't we, Why don't we talk about some of those
• 50:06
  lines. Yeah, sure, let's show me to my day shot, show
• 50:14
  me go for it. Give me give me some quotes there, Nate,
• 50:21
  Oh quotes, man. I literally stopped writing them down because I had like
• 50:25
  fifteen that was just like, oh, man, give me five, give
• 50:30
  me five rights. I will start with I think my favorite of the whole
• 50:36
  movie. It's John Candy and it is. This is it, folks,
• 50:39
  this is what it's all about. One game. There's no tomorrow. This
• 50:45
  is the whole magilla, the whole ball axe, the whole kitten caboodle,
• 50:52
  the whole Enchilada, for the whole shooting match. This is for all the
• 51:00
  marbles, the Division Championship. The loser goes home a loser, and the
• 51:04
  winner goes home to the World Series. I can't believe it. I've been
• 51:08
  waiting my whole life to say these words, you know, because I've never
• 51:12
  said them, like this World Series and I'm on the air. We'll be
• 51:15
  right back. Yeah that was great. Screwed up a little bit in there,
• 51:23
  but that that whole little like he delivers it perfectly. Um yeah,
• 51:31
  it was just so fun. Um that is probably if I had to pick
• 51:37
  one, I think that does it. And that again showcases John Candy's just
• 51:42
  ability to like you, like you believe him because he's kind of this goofy
• 51:45
  character. But you're like this dude's probably said this one hundred times sitting in
• 51:50
  his apartment or home by himself and just like repeating it, being like the
• 51:54
  Cubs are never gonna win the World Series. But here I am like,
• 51:59
  I just I love it so much. And uh yeah, I think the
• 52:05
  Pepsi commercial with the guy leans in I need you to be more sexy,
• 52:15
  it's like, are we done yet? Like a ten year old kid.
• 52:20
  You know I'm a kid, right yeah, Yeah, And then the whole
• 52:23
  bit about the hat to, like that's Gary Busey's advice. Sorry, I
• 52:30
  don't know if we're onto the extras yet. I just literally do it the
• 52:36
  hat to. I won't steal this from Rob because I know he's gonna bring
• 52:38
  it up, so I'll let you do it. But the line when they're
• 52:42
  sitting in the lunch room in the beginning of the movie, when George goes,
• 52:46
  not that hot, she's stacked. Milk's done that body good. Milk's
• 52:52
  done that body good. Ye, which for the younger for the younger listeners,
• 52:57
  that's gonna make zero sense because you probably get the reference. But there
• 53:01
  was an ad campaign for Bulk back when with the Night. It was a
• 53:06
  great one and has Maybe my favorite commercial ever was the Yes that is a
• 53:13
  classic suit, which became such a bigger deal later. Yeah culture right,
• 53:24
  um, yeah, those are probably my tops. Um. There is a
• 53:30
  nice little one though, where right before Brigman gets stuck in between the hotel
• 53:36
  doors, the one door locks and the um hotel staff guys there and he's
• 53:42
  super goofy, like just like Brigma and the door locks and he opens it
• 53:45
  from the other side. He goes, sorry, your door seems to be
• 53:49
  malfunctioning. I'll get housekeeping up here, and nice guy like, yeah,
• 53:57
  it was very ace venture he I don't think that was the thing yet,
• 54:01
  so it was. It was an interesting bit, but yeah, but it
• 54:07
  was funny. He's seeing the interaction between David David Daniel Stern because he's such
• 54:13
  a goofball right in the whole movie, he's, you know, the ultimate
• 54:16
  goofball, but like in that one moment, this dude like matched his level
• 54:21
  and they were like instant best friends. Yeah, right, guy, that's
• 54:27
  really funny. Look, sorry, I could go on for hours, but
• 54:30
  um, yeah, well I'll say a few. My favorite, without a
• 54:34
  doubt is the doctor getting smacked in the nose and you funky, and then
• 54:43
  George saying, did you say funky but loving? I have said that so
• 54:49
  many times in my life. I thought it was funny. Um, it's
• 54:55
  just like as close as you can get to a little kid swear, you
• 54:59
  know, without happening. So good, man, so so good. That's
• 55:05
  really great. I want to know the writer that came up with that line,
• 55:09
  like that was such a unique wild like such a unique phrase. Yeah,
• 55:15
  yeah, it made me laugh. Um, Henry yelled out some fun
• 55:21
  things. He said, hey, we want a picture, not an underwear
• 55:23
  snitchery, which I had never heard that one before. Um, or a
• 55:30
  picture's gotta bab But that was one time. UM. I like, take
• 55:37
  kid, how'd you like to play for the Chicago Cubs? Great? But
• 55:39
  I gotta ask my mom first. Yeah, he's got to ask his mom.
• 55:44
  Um. I thought that was fun. I love this kid. Way
• 55:49
  to go, run a mucker. I just love all names. The names
• 55:54
  are great. Yeah, just throwing the cheddar. They say that a lot.
• 56:00
  I used to say that in baseball all the time because of this movie.
• 56:02
  Totally throwing the cheddar. Stinky cheese. Yes, that's right, hot
• 56:12
  Ice, I hate you nailed it. That also is on my list.
• 56:19
  He's so funny. He's got just like a mouthful seeds too. In that
• 56:22
  part. Oh so good. They for some reason do the Wizard of Oz
• 56:27
  thing. Well it's a horse of a different color. Yeah, when he
• 56:30
  opens up the cub door. Yeah, it's very silly and weird. Uh.
• 56:37
  Sweetmeat pies Rolling Gardener's going to back. Sweet meat Pies reminds me of
• 56:44
  like sweet sassy Molassie. Yesh. So funny. Also when when he gets
• 56:50
  tagged at first when they do the pitch out, you know, like he's
• 56:54
  Henry's on first steal. His mom's like get him too hard, and the
• 57:00
  guy's in the flower shop with her and he's like, well, he was
• 57:04
  just going for the tag and she holds the pruning shot and she's like hey,
• 57:07
  she's like and she ends up hitting her head on the light. Yes,
• 57:14
  but I'm fairly certain that was not intentional. There's trivia about it for
• 57:19
  sure. Yeah. Yeah, because she can be seen saying a swear word
• 57:23
  and they had they dubbed over it right, and the dub over it.
• 57:28
  It was definitely a mistake. That's a great mistake. Like it worked out.
• 57:34
  Oh, it works so well. Uh, let's see. I also
• 57:39
  just love the uh oh this was the scene I was talking about when the
• 57:44
  boys are sitting with the girls and the little tiny friend uh is like,
• 57:50
  tell her you'll take her for a ride, ask her to go for a
• 57:53
  ride. Clark just I love that line so much and always cracked me up.
• 57:59
  And the little dude just as like game, but I love it.
• 58:01
  I think it's so funny. He got game well. It was so good,
• 58:05
  And in reality he's the most confident of the three of the because him
• 58:10
  and the cute little third girlfriend, they like hit it off without any prompting
• 58:15
  from the rest of the group. That I love that when Stern does get
• 58:22
  caught between the doors and he's like, little up here, Yeah, that's
• 58:30
  good. I love that. Another one from John Candy, he's like,
• 58:36
  well, that's gonna bring rockets her and run average about three hundred or so,
• 58:39
  which he was the attendance here today. What a team? What a
• 58:44
  team? That specific line very much reminds me of Major League Actually say that,
• 58:52
  Yeah, it's very Bob Yucker esque. Bob Yucker's the best, just
• 58:57
  a bit outside Joe oh Man. That's funny. I also loved when they're
• 59:06
  it's Stern and Henry and they're like at the party that they're throwing for the
• 59:12
  big Winstrey and he's looking over and you think they're talking about these two ladies,
• 59:16
  and he's like, shall we we have to enjoy the treats of winning
• 59:21
  or whatever, and they go over and he's just like, excuse me,
• 59:23
  ladies, excuse me. All right, people, you know, just his
• 59:30
  second excuse me to get him to move is so great love, it's so
• 59:36
  funny. There's a great little moment too in the limousine kind of in the
• 59:42
  middle towards the end with chat Steadman and Mary and Henry and he goes club
• 59:47
  soda bed yes like that. Yeah, I mean, meanwhile, what does
• 59:54
  he know how to do? He's putting club soda and ice in a class
• 59:58
  and like Lauren beverage into a glass. I don't even think he puts booze
• 1:00:06
  in it. It's just club soda, no, which, you know whatever?
• 1:00:10
  A little more, what an idiot? That's your hot take? I
• 1:00:20
  just had one last one, and it's just when the owner is out watching
• 1:00:23
  the game. Finally, it's like four hot dogs please, all right,
• 1:00:27
  sir, coming right up here you are? He hands him a dollar says
• 1:00:30
  thank you the hot dog. Venners like, what are you kidding? Mac,
• 1:00:34
  you're eleven bucks short? They're three bucks apiece, and he's like three
• 1:00:37
  dollars for a hot dog. Also on Home Alone too, Yeah nice.
• 1:00:45
  Yeah, he's the toy store owner. Oh sure owns the nice um.
• 1:00:52
  He plays a great little role in that movie because he's so sweet, just
• 1:00:54
  unassuming. Yeah, yeah, sweet old guy. Yeah three But that was
• 1:01:02
  all the ones hilarious because if you think of MLB owners these days, you
• 1:01:07
  don't think like them probably being like that. Sure, it's like three bucks
• 1:01:14
  for a hot dog. Let's make that eleven bucks a hot dog. No,
• 1:01:16
  dude, they got to figure that out. I feel like it's not
• 1:01:20
  too bad at Target Field is not horrible. When you go to US Bank
• 1:01:23
  Stadium, I mean, it's so ridiculous. I went to um going off
• 1:01:30
  a tangent, but I went to a soccer game in Atlanta. Um At
• 1:01:35
  there. That's where the Falcons play too, in the beautiful stadium. It's
• 1:01:38
  not that old, but they have made it so that all the vendors everything
• 1:01:45
  was super cheap. I got like two tacos in a soda for like six
• 1:01:50
  bucks total. Yeah, that's amazing. So you want to hear an opposite
• 1:01:54
  story. Yes, one of the most crazy cool stadiums in the country,
• 1:02:00
  Dodger Stadium, because it hasn't been updated since like nineteen eighty two. Sure,
• 1:02:05
  but it's part of the promise that hasn't been updated from eighty two.
• 1:02:09
  I went went like a month ago when I was in LA and I got
• 1:02:16
  in line, so I didn't want to wait in the line for food because
• 1:02:20
  it was we are already the games go so quick now, but the line
• 1:02:23
  was too long, and I was like, we've already missed the first two
• 1:02:25
  Indians. I want to get a beer and sit down, so I order
• 1:02:29
  like an IPA or I grabbed the can out of the fridge because they have
• 1:02:32
  like a quick fridge line that you can just grab your drink and so IPA.
• 1:02:36
  I get up to the thing twenty two dollars and I was like almost
• 1:02:44
  fell on the floor. I almost wanted to put it back. But then
• 1:02:46
  it was like I'm on vacation, yeah right, but I'm like that's brutal.
• 1:02:52
  Wow, twenty two bucks for a beer. Like you can literally buy
• 1:02:57
  a one seven five of a medium to cheap vodka for not much more.
• 1:03:01
  Yeah, like that's unbelievable. That's the worst I've ever heard. Oh,
• 1:03:07
  it was brutal. And then of course it's like you put your card in
• 1:03:12
  and it's like leave a twenty percent tip. It's like, wait, what
• 1:03:15
  for me? But he I did it. I was like, so do
• 1:03:21
  we do duck six dollars? Because I grabbed it? Yeah, right,
• 1:03:25
  you should tip me? Yeah? That was that was the worst stadiums.
• 1:03:31
  Yeah, yeah, Well, did you have any other quotes who wanted to
• 1:03:37
  say? They're Nate? I mean no, we'll stop there. No,
• 1:03:45
  yes, no, I mean I could just quote the whole movie. I
• 1:03:50
  believe you could, so, well, why don't why don't we leave him
• 1:03:53
  wanting more and let's let's go and do bugs booo moments? Oh wow,
• 1:04:01
  strong men also cry, strong man also cry. So I picked three boo
• 1:04:12
  hoos intriguing, and I don't know if that was right or not, but
• 1:04:16
  these are the ones I picked. Nate. You can let me know if
• 1:04:19
  you think of any other ones. But the first one I had is when
• 1:04:23
  Rocket gave him the signed ball. Oh that's a good one. That didn't
• 1:04:28
  get me. Yeah, that's a good one though, when he says he
• 1:04:33
  does have someone to look up to it was his mom. Yeah that's nice.
• 1:04:39
  Yeah, it's nice. And then when he figures out it's his mom
• 1:04:43
  who is the pitcher after he sees it's her glove. You know, I
• 1:04:48
  was expecting that to get me. It didn't. Isn't that weird? That
• 1:04:51
  is weird. It's very strange. I don't believe you. That's crazy.
• 1:04:58
  I don't know. I don't know. If my heart was full of stone
• 1:05:00
  that day, if it was too close to a baseball game, I don't
• 1:05:03
  know what happened. Interesting that specific one didn't get me. That's very surprised,
• 1:05:10
  very weird. What do you think, Nate, do you think there's
• 1:05:12
  any more? Um? I mean the floated scene where he rips off the
• 1:05:16
  tape that was on there. I think the one where chet stead or the
• 1:05:21
  scene where chet Steadman got traded. Um. I don't know if you probably
• 1:05:27
  got teared during that, but it hits the fields because he's like playing the
• 1:05:30
  game boy, and obviously Henry has kind of like started to look up up
• 1:05:33
  to him as a father figure, right, And you can tell chet Steadman's
• 1:05:38
  like super like just bummed out like mad because he's like but he's not.
• 1:05:44
  He doesn't he loves Henry, you can tell, but you like he kind
• 1:05:47
  of takes it out on Henry. I don't know. That seemed a little
• 1:05:54
  like it kind of hits the fields, but it did. It didn't get
• 1:05:57
  me to cry, though, No, but I like that um one.
• 1:06:03
  No, I have well say, well, I was gonna say, Rob
• 1:06:10
  didn't expound on the I just wanted to have someone to look up to seeing
• 1:06:14
  because it starts off with Jack being like, your mother probably doesn't even know
• 1:06:18
  who your father is. Yeah, and it just gets so intense because she's
• 1:06:25
  like, He's like, Mom, I know about dad. I know he
• 1:06:29
  left you when you were pregnant with me, Grahama told me, And she's
• 1:06:30
  like, are you saying I just wanted somebody to look up to you?
• 1:06:34
  Yeah? Yeah, that whole thing definitely got me for sure. That's touch.
• 1:06:40
  Sure. Uh, there were you were right on the number up because
• 1:06:44
  there were three where when I'm confused by as well, Yes, I don't
• 1:06:51
  think this is right. I may be wrong. I was gonna say,
• 1:06:55
  what about when Henry's friends are mad at him and they're working on the boat.
• 1:07:00
  Oh No, that didn't get me either. I was because that one
• 1:07:03
  kind of I thought it would, But I'm with you. Yeah, it
• 1:07:06
  kind of hits like when they have like that, they've been like best friends
• 1:07:11
  and then all of a sudden it's just like this kind of like sad moment
• 1:07:15
  plus the like instant come on, come on back in when they're like you're
• 1:07:18
  coming or not, you know, like all that. I love that.
• 1:07:21
  That's so good? All right? Sorry? Uh no, the other two
• 1:07:26
  were the one happened very early. It's when uh, she says to him,
• 1:07:32
  you went you went ahead and got too big on me, And it's
• 1:07:35
  right before he goes and starts playing baseball. It's very sweet. I thought
• 1:07:40
  that was a nice momentum. And then it's when Steadman is talking to the
• 1:07:44
  mom and he's like, he's a good kid. He must have a heck
• 1:07:47
  of a mom And I just thought that was such a nice moment. Oh,
• 1:07:50
  I just thought it as him. Yeah, yeah, I mean that's
• 1:07:57
  a little Columby, a little Columby. Okay, there are a few moments
• 1:08:00
  like that that they weren't quite boohoo moments, but sure some good feels in
• 1:08:05
  there, Like they definitely brought it. There's a lot of good vibes in
• 1:08:10
  it, for sure. But I'm genuinely shocked that I didn't cry during the
• 1:08:15
  float. Yeah, that that floors me. I know, no idea.
• 1:08:19
  When did you fall asleep during the movie? I maybe my phone go off
• 1:08:26
  and I didn't remember something. It's so weird, but yeah, it was
• 1:08:30
  just the three today. Well, I'm gonna take it as a win,
• 1:08:32
  even though it was just like, Henry gets a win, even though he
• 1:08:36
  didn't throw a strike till the second game? Right, he gets the say
• 1:08:40
  he got the same. Yes, I like analogy. Very good. Let's
• 1:08:45
  go on and do a little movie trivia. What do you say? Yes?
• 1:08:48
  John Candy as the radio broadcaster is uncredited. His role isn't mentioned in
• 1:08:54
  the movie credits because he wasn't originally cast in the movie, and so like
• 1:08:58
  maybe they added it later. That's like home alone. Yeah, isn't that
• 1:09:01
  crazy? Nuts love it? Why did none of these people want to just
• 1:09:08
  hire him to begin with? They all just were like, no, let's
• 1:09:11
  give him a call. Let's see. Um all thought this was fun.
• 1:09:15
  When Henry takes his first at bat, the pitcher in that scene is Tim
• 1:09:19
  Stoddard, and Stoddard was a technical advisor for the baseball scenes in the movie.
• 1:09:25
  Coincidentally, he was actually a pitcher for the Cubs in real life and
• 1:09:29
  pitched on the eighty four Cubs team that won the nli's title and then eventually
• 1:09:32
  lost in the NLCS. Thought that was interesting, is let's see except for
• 1:09:42
  once Martinella gets Henry's last name wrong every single time, as we all know,
• 1:09:46
  he calls him the following ruling further Gardenhozer Ravi Boozer, Rosenberger ran a
• 1:09:54
  mucker, Rowan Gardner, Rulin Gruder and Rosenberger pretty great. So that's a
• 1:10:02
  fun little thing in the movie. It was a great bit. I love
• 1:10:04
  that bit. It's so great. I actually thought he had a bigger role
• 1:10:09
  in the movie too, because I remember that so well. But that's really
• 1:10:13
  all he does. Yeah, that and the like, at least give me,
• 1:10:17
  let me coach until the end of the year before you take my job.
• 1:10:23
  Yeah, one more could have been. I was dead at that point,
• 1:10:26
  apparently, Let's see. Following the film's release, Thomas e and Nicholas
• 1:10:31
  throughout the first pitch at multiple Cubs games, and was also invited to sing
• 1:10:34
  take Me out to the ballgame multiple times during the seventh inning stretch at Regular
• 1:10:40
  Field. During the twenty fifteen National League Championship Series, where the Cubs faced
• 1:10:45
  the Mets, as they did in the movie, he attended Game four in
• 1:10:48
  a Rone Gardner number one jersey, similar to what he wore in the film,
• 1:10:53
  but they lost eight three, knocking them out of the postseason. Could
• 1:10:58
  have been a perfect moment. Could have been a perfect a moment. Ah,
• 1:11:00
  let's see. Oh she hits her head on the lamp. She didn't
• 1:11:05
  mean to do that, but she mutters, Ohan, you could see her,
• 1:11:11
  and they had to dub over it, which I thought was funny,
• 1:11:13
  super funny. Yeah, silly. Let's see he would have been since this
• 1:11:19
  was in nineteen ninety three, he'd have been making one hundred and nine thousand
• 1:11:23
  dollars as the minimum for a rookie in the majors that year, so not
• 1:11:28
  too shabby. I don't know why he couldn't buy his friends a better motor,
• 1:11:30
  but okay, that's fair. The mustache that Gary Busey is wearing is
• 1:11:40
  fake, and so or his teat apparently, so that's fun. Let's see
• 1:11:46
  her psycho accident. Daniel Stern was inspired to direct this movie because it deals
• 1:11:56
  with kids who have to deal with fame and being controlled by adults's managers who
• 1:12:00
  make all their decisions for him. He experienced that a lot on the set
• 1:12:03
  of Home Alone and Home Alone two, observing mcaulay culkin and how he was
• 1:12:09
  dictated by his domineering father, and wanted to direct a movie that paralleled his
• 1:12:15
  real life observances. So that's interesting lofty goal for this movie, like it,
• 1:12:20
  Let's see the cubs eventually won. We knew that a lot longer,
• 1:12:28
  a lot longer, but I thought this was cool Thomas E and Nicholas.
• 1:12:31
  After the Cubs won, they came back from three to one, you know,
• 1:12:34
  to win that and everything. He celebrated the World Series win on Twitter
• 1:12:41
  by posting the final shot from this film with the ring and everything in his
• 1:12:45
  hand up. I thought that was pretty I posted the same thing, and
• 1:12:47
  I posted it before he did. Whoa, but I only got like twelve
• 1:12:53
  legs. Yeah, it's a bummer that he saw. He saw it and
• 1:12:58
  stole it, probably did. I think that's what I deserve credit. You
• 1:13:03
  definitely deserve it, buddy. Also, I never knew this, but the
• 1:13:06
  hidden ball trick that the Cubs use near the end of the movie would not
• 1:13:10
  actually have resulted in and out because of MLB rules. This is because the
• 1:13:15
  mound visit is considered time out from play, which does not start up again
• 1:13:18
  until the pitcher has the ball while standing on the rubber on the mound never
• 1:13:24
  started. Yeah, I thought that was kind of interesting. Actually, I
• 1:13:28
  did know that because I was a pitcher in high school. Okay, you
• 1:13:31
  have to have your foot on the rubber for play to resoom yeah, or
• 1:13:35
  I didn't know. I didn't know that was a rule this you know all
• 1:13:40
  this time, you can still get them like if the first baseman if you
• 1:13:44
  throw to first base, yeah he's safe, and you don't go back to
• 1:13:47
  the rubber yep, or like go near it and the guy steps off,
• 1:13:54
  like you fake throw it back to the pitcher. You've seen that in real
• 1:13:57
  games right over the years a couple times anyway, So yeah, yeah,
• 1:14:00
  it's pretty technical rule. Yeah, for sure, the movie didn't get right,
• 1:14:06
  but um, I mean it's doable. Yeah, it's doable. It's
• 1:14:12
  just not quite the same in real life. Yeah, totally, totally.
• 1:14:15
  But that was all the trivia I had, Buddy, I saw a couple
• 1:14:17
  of things I saw. The studio originally wanted Daniel Stern to cast Joe Pesci
• 1:14:21
  as chet Steadman or in the role of the baseball commentator, but Stern felt
• 1:14:27
  if Peschi was cast, many audiences and critics would unfavorably compare his film to
• 1:14:31
  the first two home alone films, which to date remained the most successful films
• 1:14:36
  of Stern's acting career. Although Stern's also friends with Peshi in real life,
• 1:14:41
  he declined the studio suggestion, wanting to have his film be somewhat distanced from
• 1:14:45
  the Home Alone universe, so Gary Busey was cast as Chet instead. And
• 1:14:50
  although John Candy was in the first Home Alone, he was not originally supposed
• 1:14:54
  to have a role in this movie. He happened to be visiting nearby the
• 1:14:58
  set and as Stern if he could play a small ro rollin. Stern agreed
• 1:15:00
  because being that Candy also had a relatively small role in Home Alone, and
• 1:15:04
  since the two were friends, he felt it would and cause comparisons between this
• 1:15:08
  movie and the aforementioned crazy Yeah wow uh. And the only other thing is
• 1:15:14
  the studio tried to recruit director Daniel Stern to have McCauley Culkin play Henry because
• 1:15:19
  of the actor's history with Culkin from Home Alone, but Culkin was unavailable because
• 1:15:25
  his father demanded his star in The good Son as a condition for twenty twentieth
• 1:15:30
  Century Fox green lighting Home Alone, Too Lost in New York, Yikes The
• 1:15:34
  good Son. That one stuck with with with me my whole life. That
• 1:15:40
  movie scared me to death big time. I'll say, oh, another McCauley
• 1:15:45
  culkin movie, Sweet Wrong, What have I done? Because it was him
• 1:15:49
  and h Elijah right, yeah, Elijah Wood, damn crazy. That was
• 1:15:55
  all I had. I would like to watch that movie again. Let's see
• 1:15:58
  what I think of it now. Yeah, I haven't had nightmares. Um,
• 1:16:04
  Nate, did we have any trivia that you had that we missed?
• 1:16:08
  I didn't have a lot, you guys hit kind of the things that I
• 1:16:12
  knew, I just said a few notes. Um. One of them is
• 1:16:15
  that driving a Mazda Miata, even in that time, was still lame.
• 1:16:23
  That's just like the douchiest car to pull up in, and I love it.
• 1:16:27
  It was so perfect. He like can't get out of the car,
• 1:16:30
  so he like kind of crawls out pretty great. He forgets to pop the
• 1:16:33
  clutch at the one point, like like all that stuff right, so funny.
• 1:16:38
  Um. Yeah, the couple one or years characters we talked about earlier.
• 1:16:43
  Yeah, I noticed. This is a fun little thing. But if
• 1:16:45
  you look at Barry Bonds, his little cameo is so tiny it makes me
• 1:16:55
  giggled because they you know, clearly he was on steroids. And how the
• 1:17:00
  how people weren't like at the time, like, hey dude, your hat
• 1:17:05
  size grew about an inch? Yeah, fourteen size? What happened. Yeah,
• 1:17:10
  he got so big man. Yeah, because when he was on the
• 1:17:13
  Pirates he was tiny, you know, skinny. He was a great hitter
• 1:17:17
  back then. He just wasn't home He was still a good home run hitter,
• 1:17:21
  but he wasn't the level he ended up being. And clearly there was
• 1:17:25
  something involved, which was like, dude, Rookie of the Year was a
• 1:17:30
  popular movie. How did nobody like I think, Hey, maybe we should
• 1:17:34
  check this out. Sure? Um, also a fun little tidbit. Um.
• 1:17:40
  I looked this up a long time ago, and almost every time I
• 1:17:43
  watch it. I don't know why I google the actor for heado. Um
• 1:17:47
  the mets that grinds sawdust out of the bat Um he did because I thought
• 1:17:55
  he was someone else. He looked so much like Ogre from Revenge in the
• 1:18:00
  Nerds. Totally a different dude. Um. Yeah, but he apparently was
• 1:18:11
  like from the little bit that they have on him, because he was in
• 1:18:14
  a handful of movies, not a churn, so there's not a lot of
• 1:18:15
  information. But the little I read, he seemed like he was a super
• 1:18:20
  nice dude. I think he was a bodybuilder. But he died super young,
• 1:18:25
  like not long It was like two thousand three oh ums, like ten
• 1:18:30
  years after the movie. But he I don't know why. I was just
• 1:18:34
  always like the gist I got was he's like a super nice person in real
• 1:18:39
  life. Nobody plays is just you know, total jerk, total maniac.
• 1:18:48
  This one's for Mummy. Yeah, yeah, nothing nothing crazy. You guys
• 1:18:55
  covered the fun ones left me with the garbage. Nice. Well, will
• 1:19:00
  there be a sequel Judgment Day? Definitely not, there's zero. Listen,
• 1:19:06
  listen, I'm gonna I'm I'm gonna go out on a limb here. I
• 1:19:12
  don't think it's too late. Really, Oh, I don't think it's too
• 1:19:15
  late. I don't. I actually follow Thomasy and Nicholas Instagram and he's in
• 1:19:21
  a you know, a medium level band. Um. I mean he's no
• 1:19:27
  free homes, but who is serious? Who is No? I think he
• 1:19:32
  still has that connection to the Cubs and he still does a few of those
• 1:19:35
  things. Yeah. I would not be surprised if they have like a movie
• 1:19:43
  for our our kids that he's like the dad in that's loosely based on Rookie
• 1:19:47
  of the Year, So like the same thing happens and he's the dad.
• 1:19:53
  Yeah, like it. It kind of is just a generation removed and they
• 1:19:58
  kind of make I don't know it would technically be a sequel, but I
• 1:20:00
  could see them. With all the sequels these days, I can see them
• 1:20:04
  bringing something rebooting. Yeah, what if he has a kid in this movie
• 1:20:09
  the kid breaks their leg and then it's just like a football they kick field
• 1:20:14
  goals in the NFL or something. It'd be super fun that the Bears,
• 1:20:21
  right, I like it. And I could do a lady who necessary roughness
• 1:20:26
  situation, like gender bending stuff. I like that. I think we got
• 1:20:30
  an idea here. Who do we talk to about this? What's that?
• 1:20:34
  Who do we talk to about this? All right, let's let's yeah.
• 1:20:40
  I like it. That'd be fun. Yeah, yeah, I don't want
• 1:20:44
  to rule out a sequel, and I mean, it wouldn't really be a
• 1:20:46
  sequel at this point, but I could see like a reboot or something playing
• 1:20:50
  off of it, because I feel like they've been doing that a lot,
• 1:20:53
  and they definitely have in thirty years. You're right, it's not too long.
• 1:20:57
  I mean it took it was over thirty years for coming to America,
• 1:21:00
  right right, Yeah, to get theirs, So yeah, for sure,
• 1:21:04
  maybe still waiting for Back to the Future four. It's on the way.
• 1:21:10
  It's on the way. I've seen trailers, yeah, I've watched those.
• 1:21:14
  It's pretty compelling. Like I really thought there was a four when I saw
• 1:21:18
  the trailer. But what's the story idea? Um, I don't remember.
• 1:21:24
  Yeah something. It was compelling though, like you watched it and you got
• 1:21:27
  like excited about it, like okay, I'm yeah, I I was in
• 1:21:31
  it. They're actually finishing in another Indiana Jones and it's the last one,
• 1:21:35
  the Dial of Destiny. Oh, because I'm in for it. Steven Spielberg
• 1:21:42
  called, uh, oh my god, total blanking soundtrack. John Williams Seohn
• 1:21:45
  Williams called him and he was like, I'm retired, and he said,
• 1:21:50
  hey, do you want to do one last one? He said, If
• 1:21:53
  I'm going to do one last one, it's for this movie. Yeah.
• 1:21:56
  It's cool, that's exciting, that's fun. Fun. Well, do you
• 1:22:00
  guys want to play a game? Yes? Yes, I decided to make
• 1:22:04
  a hot tub time machine, but we call it plot tub time Machine.
• 1:22:13
  And so I'm just gonna read a plot synopsis to a movie, and once
• 1:22:17
  you know what the movie is, you ring in with your name, and
• 1:22:21
  all of these movies will have something in common. When you know the theme,
• 1:22:27
  ring in with your name for a point. There's no negative points for
• 1:22:30
  wrong answers, and I think that's about it. Yes, Nate is on
• 1:22:39
  the board. No, let's get let's get started here. Let's go number
• 1:22:44
  one. In the years before the Civil War, Solomon north Up, a
• 1:22:49
  free black man from upstate New York, is kidnapped and sold into slavery in
• 1:22:53
  the South, subjected to the Yes, Bukes twelve years of slave. Twelve
• 1:23:00
  years a slave is correct. Nicely done. Let's go to number two.
• 1:23:09
  Living alone, Andy spends his free time playing video games and curating his action
• 1:23:13
  figure collection. Despite his age, and he has never had sex. So
• 1:23:16
  his friends, including the laid back David, push Andy towards losing his virginity.
• 1:23:21
  Yes, yes, this year old virgin, forty year old virgin.
• 1:23:25
  Very very good. Good work, good job. We got to get points.
• 1:23:30
  Yes, you got a point, and Bob says a point. Guys
• 1:23:32
  are both on the board. That's good because I normally do horrible when we
• 1:23:35
  did a by like, I think I got one the whole time. Yeah,
• 1:23:40
  well I wasn't. I didn't do actors' names. I thought I thought
• 1:23:42
  plots would be a little easier, So we'll see number three. On their
• 1:23:47
  one year anniversary. Sue chef toom Solomon plans a surprise his girlfriend, Violet
• 1:23:53
  Barnes with an engagement ring. The lovers do end up engaged, but the
• 1:23:57
  fact that the proposal does not go exactly as plan proved to be a clue
• 1:24:00
  of things to come. Each time they try to set a date, various
• 1:24:03
  obstacles stand in their way. As more and more time passes, Tom and
• 1:24:08
  Violet begin to wonder if perhaps their marriage is not meant to be us?
• 1:24:16
  Is it five year engagement? The five year engagement? Bran, So we've
• 1:24:25
  had twelve years of slave, forty year old virgin in the five year engagement?
• 1:24:28
  Anybody numbers that is incorrect? Years? The year is yes, yeah,
• 1:24:36
  numbers, that's what I meant. Numbers does not mean those numbers in
• 1:24:42
  each of the title. I didn't what are we going for? You're right,
• 1:24:45
  there are numbers in those titles. But the things that is going to
• 1:24:49
  be in all of the titles is the word year. We all have the
• 1:24:54
  word year, but what about numbers? There might be a numbers. The
• 1:24:59
  next one looks like has a number, and I think there's only one other
• 1:25:03
  one with the number, so I probably should have switched it around. I'm
• 1:25:06
  sorry one. Well, just wait, Nate, all right, auld be
• 1:25:15
  pretty impressive. Number four The Here we Go In New York, a struggling
• 1:25:21
  actress and a successful writer sing about their failed marriage from two perspectives. Bus
• 1:25:26
  bukes the last five years, the last five years? Yes, all right,
• 1:25:32
  let's go to number five. When yet another anniversary passes without a marriage
• 1:25:38
  proposal from her boyfriend, Anna decides to take action. Aware of a Celtic
• 1:25:42
  tradition that allows women to pop the question on February twenty ninth, bukes,
• 1:25:46
  leap bear, he beat me to it. It's a good one. That
• 1:25:51
  may Oh wow, both of you do? Okay, cool, awesome,
• 1:25:55
  it's a movie. Let's yeah, I mean it's not like good. Number
• 1:26:01
  six. Here we Go. Three men find that they have come to a
• 1:26:06
  turning point. Stu faces of a late life crisis, Kenny is in the
• 1:26:11
  grip of a midlife crisis, and Brad is wallowing in a no life crisis.
• 1:26:15
  Determined to kickstart their stagnant live Stu, Kenny, and Brad decide to
• 1:26:19
  enter prestigious contest during the course of one calendar year. The three friendly rivals
• 1:26:25
  Cris cross North America in a quest account more species of birds than anyone else.
• 1:26:29
  Bukes, Oh, is it? Just? Is it? New Year?
• 1:26:34
  That is incorrect? Nate. No, that is not correct, Nate.
• 1:26:43
  It's not year we've done. He just said, he just said that,
• 1:26:49
  He said, you though, I don't know the title, but I'm
• 1:26:54
  I've seen the movie once. No, this was called The Big The Big
• 1:26:59
  Year, The Big Year. Yeah, yea, where are we after six?
• 1:27:05
  They're Bukes? That's a good question. I met five, Nate?
• 1:27:11
  Is that one? Oh? Yeah, he got the theme. Yep,
• 1:27:13
  he got the theme. Yep. So that would be right because nobody got
• 1:27:16
  number six. There. All right, let's go to numbers seven. Intertwining
• 1:27:23
  stories promise, love, hope, forgiveness, second chances and more for a
• 1:27:27
  number of New Yorkers on the celebrated night a rock star and hiss. Yes,
• 1:27:31
  Bukes, New Year's Day. That's incorrect, Nate, New Year's Eve,

• 1:28:49
  Shut up mate, listen. I will say that is a very underrated movie.
• 1:28:58
  I remember thinking it was not funny the time, but that I only
• 1:29:00
  saw it the one time. Yeah, I don't know if I ever even
