  Speaker 4: This episode is rated M for Misty. Yes, that's right,
• 0:23
  Speaker 4: this is a Misty episode, so it will be laced
• 0:25
  Speaker 4: with profanity even more than usual. If you're not comfortable
• 0:28
  Speaker 4: with this level of profanity... perhaps this isn't the episode
• 0:31
  Speaker 4: for you. But we have many other episodes to choose
• 0:33
  Speaker 4: from that do not feature Misty and will probably be
• 0:36
  Speaker 4: far less offensive. Okay, maybe. That having been said, on

• 1:49
  Speaker 2: And we're coming to you live via digital recording from
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: the Lexington Comic and Toy Convention.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Hells yes we are.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: And it's been quite a day. live from the stairwell
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: live from our actually we're kind of back in our
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: many many years ago we had our own little secret
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: place that we used to go and hide and record
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: have our own private bathrooms and the sound was was
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: not too bad and we actually back in the day
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: had a little couch that they tucked away down here
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: and nobody else knew about it and it was our
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: own little secret place now since then they've stole our
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: couch but the fact that we're sitting on the floor
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: is actually fitting as we go into later in this
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: episode but we'll get to that later so how's it
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: going it's going we've had quite a day.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: It's exhausting. I'm done.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: Many, many things.
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: I'm kind of exhausted just from the wandering and, I
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: guess we also are out of practice. We're back in
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: the convention season.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: This is the.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: First real full-on convention of the year.
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: I feel good.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: That's what geeks do. They kind of wrap it up
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: and it's the holidays and nobody leaves the house and
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: it gets cold.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: Boyfriend has been surprisingly chill all day considering the amount
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: of people. He hasn't killed anybody yet. He hasn't gone
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: and sat in the car, which is the normal MO
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: or hiding in a corner.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: Are you on your special medication?
• 3:01
  Speaker 9: No.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: You're just high on life.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: High on meeting Chuck Norris.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: Meeting Chuck Norris. That was specifically what brought you today.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: So do you want to go into that awesomeness that
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: is Chuck Norris being a badass?
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: I don't know. Can I?
• 3:16
  Speaker 8: How do you?
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: How does one delve into the awesomeness that is Chuck Norris?
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: You met him. You shook his hand. He was a
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: cool dude.
• 3:24
  Speaker 8: He was very friendly.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: Excellent. He probably.
• 3:27
  Speaker 8: Would have spent more time talking, but God, he had
• 3:29
  Speaker 8: so many people in his line.
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: He was a big draw this year.
• 3:34
  Speaker 8: You could kind of tell that he wanted to talk
• 3:36
  Speaker 8: a little bit, but the handlers are kind of rushing him.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: Especially by the time we got to him in the line,
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: because it was getting close to photo op time.
• 3:46
  Speaker 8: Yeah, so you guys need to move it on.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: Trying to wrap this up.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: And it's not so much him, it's not so much
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: his handlers, or just the situation in general.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: Just trying to orchestrate all this stuff, to me, is
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: a nightmare. So the fact that they ever get any
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: of this done, let alone just the amount of things
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: going on at once at any given moment in any
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: of these conventions.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: This one could have gone either way, because it's Chuck Norris,
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: who's Chuck Norris, but it's also, when's the last thing
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: he's really done? Expeditals. Yeah, but still, it's.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: Like, I still feel like he's just name recognition. And
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: so many kids grew up.
• 4:18
  Speaker 8: It's Chuck Norris.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, on the VHS era.
• 4:21
  Speaker 8: He was king. So you've got people that watch The Expendables.
• 4:25
  Speaker 8: You've got all the people that watch Walker, Texas Ranger.
• 4:29
  Speaker 8: You've got all the people that are martial arts and
• 4:33
  Speaker 8: fighting nerds like me. I mean, that's a long time.
• 4:37
  Speaker 8: That's a fan base going back to what?
• 4:41
  Speaker 10: Late 70s?
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: Late 70s.
• 4:44
  Speaker 8: There was a very diverse group of people in line waiting.
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: To meet him.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: And I wonder how many of them there were just
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: like for the name because it has become so much more.
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: That too.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's kind of a meme at this point. Like
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: he's a running joke. Not in a way against him,
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: just in that he's such a badass. Like that is
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: the punchline of the joke.
• 5:03
  Speaker 8: But, I mean, that's a whole other group of people
• 5:07
  Speaker 8: too that just know Chuck Norris from, you know, 100
• 5:11
  Speaker 8: facts about Chuck Norris. You know, stuff like that.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: So did it live up to your expectations? I know
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: you didn't get to like. Yeah.
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I did.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Because I was afraid you'd be disappointed.
• 5:21
  Speaker 9: No.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: When I mention somebody at a convention, you're usually excited
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: for all of about five minutes.
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: You're like, oh my God, this is so exciting.
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: No, I'm not.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: I'm not in. I'm not going to go. So for
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: you to stay, because we've known about this since what, November?
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was definitely last year. I remember us talking
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: about it.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: We bought the photo op and the personalized photo autograph.
• 5:41
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 5:41
  Speaker 8: Well, I want it personalized.
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: I don't want it.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: You're not selling it on eBay. No, no.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: The thing is, it's weird that they charge you more
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: for the personalization when you can't sell it. You figure
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: they would charge you more to not personalize it so
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: that you can't turn around and sell it. But I
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: did notice that a lot of the boards up there,
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: like everybody who had their photo op price or their
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: autograph price, it said at the very bottom what the
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: person can.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: Reserves the right to personalize.
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: Whether you like it or not.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: Essentially is how they.
• 6:09
  Speaker 8: But then they also sold the stickers that were the
• 6:11
  Speaker 8: certified authenticity.
• 6:13
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: You know, it makes it official.
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: I guess.
• 6:17
  Speaker 8: I bet I'm, you know, I'm not looking to sell
• 6:19
  Speaker 8: any of my stuff, which is why I always have personalized.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: It's been an Epic day of, there's been so many
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: people here.
• 6:25
  Speaker 8: But you know, it's like, okay. They always say, never
• 6:28
  Speaker 8: meet your heroes. Um, And I agree with him on
• 6:33
  Speaker 8: certain things, but there are some people that I know
• 6:37
  Speaker 8: just from watching TV interviews and stuff like that. They're
• 6:40
  Speaker 8: fairly cool. Chuck Norris.
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: Cool guy.
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: See, I'm on the other way. I'm like, if you
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: base your whole life around these heroes that like. If
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: they fall, you have nothing left. That's just a bad
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: situation for you. Well, I've never done that. So to me,
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: it's like, don't build your heroes up into being something
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: more than they should be. They should be an inspiration
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: to you, but they shouldn't be like, God, it's true.
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: No, no, no.
• 7:03
  Speaker 8: I've never looked at any one person as like, you know,
• 7:09
  Speaker 8: he's my idol. I'm going to live my life exactly
• 7:12
  Speaker 8: like him. It's like, I take certain life lessons from
• 7:15
  Speaker 8: certain people, or I get inspiration from certain people through
• 7:18
  Speaker 8: certain things.
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: So, you know, I.
• 7:23
  Speaker 8: Can't think of anybody that I've been disappointed in.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: See, that's what I was going to say. I was like,
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: I encourage you, like, go meet your heroes. Because to me,
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: I'm always like, if they are a jerk, I want
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: to know. Like, I don't want to keep basing my
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: life around them. Like, I want to. So, in the
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: course of the show over all these years, like, I've
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: met so many people that I grew up thinking were
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: the greatest thing in the world. And it's like, don't.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: oversell it don't make them into something that they shouldn't
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: be so when I meet them and like I kind
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: of talk to them for a little while and I
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: get to know them as a human being I'm like
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: turns out they're a real person and they're still kind
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: of cool like to me.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: I knew Shatner was going to be a dick.
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: See that's the thing don't build it up into a
• 8:00
  Speaker 5: whole big thing and then be disappointed when he's a
• 8:02
  Speaker 5: jerk like just think that he's a person and you
• 8:04
  Speaker 5: think that he's cool and you meet him and hopefully
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: you're right and he is not necessarily Shatner.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: But I mean with most of these people it's like
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: I meet him and I'm just kind of like hey
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: that they actually turned out to be cool, and that
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: just reinforces why I wanted to be inspired by them. So, like,
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: to me, just don't build up your heroes into something
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: more than they need to be.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: And I encourage people to meet them, too, just because
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: you never know when something's going to happen.
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: And what if you never get that chance, you know?
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: Because I've always had anxiety problems, and when I met
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: Corey Haim, I don't even care. I was like, he
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: probably thought I was just, I don't know, I couldn't even, like,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: fucking words or not even a thing and he probably
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: he didn't understand how excited i was because at that
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: point in his career he was like that's cory he's
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: a joke yeah some people are literally the most excited
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: and i was like i feel so horrible that i
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: didn't like i couldn't like talk to him and be
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: like dude i've been a fan of your everything you've
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: done and it's like i've watched all the all these
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: movies and it's like And what I didn't like, I
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: never idolized him because, I mean, let's be serious, he
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: had some serious fucking life.
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: But again, as we're now understanding, he also grew up
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: in a horrible situation that I don't even know the
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: details of and I kind of don't want to know.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: I don't think any of this will ever know the
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: details of.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: What, you know. No, but we know there was a
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: lot of stuff going on. Again, was up until a
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: few months ago still going on in Hollywood. I'm not
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: saying it's totally on now, but. Definitely back in the 80s,
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: when you were a child actor, there was some horrible
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: stuff going on. So the fact that he came out
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: with some problems is not a shock. It's like you
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: don't throw kids in the middle of that and expect
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: them to not bring issues with them.
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: So yeah, it's... So yeah, I totally regret not being... Man,
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: I'm a really... I was just... It's not very often... Yeah,
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: I have anxiety problems, but I still... I can put.
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: You've gotten better, I have to say. Doing this with
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: you all these years, you've gotten to the point where
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: you can kind of joke with people and you're a
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: lot more normal than.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but then I usually go home and panic and.
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: That's just crazy in your head. Don't be crazy in
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: your head.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: That's not how it works. You can't just tell people
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: to turn the crazy off because that's... that's not how
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: anxiety works. And I understand that. And I know there's
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: people out there who experienced the exact same thing, but
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: that's my one regret is not being able to, you know,
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: and then like not even a year later, you know,
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Corey was gone and I.
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: Was just like, shit, dude, I don't get to see
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: him again. Like that was my one chance. So yeah.
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 10:31
  Speaker 8: We didn't get a chance. You didn't get a chance
• 10:33
  Speaker 8: to tell him, Hey.
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: And in the, there's a picture of me and him.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: He's just like, Oh God, you can tell look in
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: his eye where he just looks defeated.
• 10:40
  Speaker 8: He thinks it's a joke. He probably thought your excitement was.
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: Just a joke. Especially that weekend. I've heard people talk
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: about that weekend, and a lot of people were making
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: fun of him.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: I honestly thought that weekend he looked fucking amazing. He
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: looked good. He looked better than he had in years.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: He had lost weight. He looked good. He wasn't bloaty.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: He went through a phase.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: Where he was like, okay, how is he still alive?
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: He looked good.
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: He was trying to get back. They were doing their
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: weird show right before that. So I think he was
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: trying to get steps back into working in the industry
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: and getting more legit jobs.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: You never know. So if you get a chance, just
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: don't get your hopes up too high.
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: Unless, of course, it's Doug Jones. But we'll get to
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: that in a minute. In the meantime, I don't know.
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: Did you want to discuss anything? Actually, I had one
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: that I've seen that I think you've seen. So if
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: you want to tie in.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: Is it on my list?
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: Let me see. Yes, right there.
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: Can you read?
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: Happy Death Day.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: Good God.
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: I watched that a few weeks back.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: I watched it because as soon as I saw the
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: trailer for it, I'm like, oh my God, I'm going
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: to like this movie.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: I'm a sucker for time loop movies. And I know
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: there's almost too many of them these days. It's nonstop now.
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: It's its own subgenre.
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: When I put the DVD in, the first movie was the.
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: The Lea Thompson Jr.
• 12:05
  Speaker 9: Movie.
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the Lea Thompson Jr.
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: Before you fall?
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: Is that?
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: Am I making that up? I don't know.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: You could be. That was a message I messaged you
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: on Facebook as soon as I'm like, all right, we
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: just watched this movie. This is the very first, and
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: it's the exact same general premise.
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's still a young girl stuck in a time
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: loop for one day. Yeah, it's the exact same general premise,
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: but one takes an entirely different direction than the other.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: I'm going to be honest. This girl was, she was
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: not likable to begin with.
• 12:34
  Speaker 4: A lot of the movie.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: I was midway in and I'm just like, okay, is she...
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: I mean, I guess... I can't say I'm taking this
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: out of the blue. In the movie, they end up
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: referencing Groundhog Day. So, okay, most of them are inspired
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: by Groundhog Day. That's the most mainstream version of this.
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: If anybody knows what a time loop movie is, it's
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: because they've seen Groundhog Day. So... to take it to
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: that one, I mean, I guess, yes, Bill Murray's kind
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: of a jerk in that, like, if he wasn't Bill Murray,
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: you'd be pretty annoyed with him, but the fact that
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: he is Bill Murray kind of, like, wins you over,
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: so this one, I guess, I don't, again, I think
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: that's going to be a battle with any character that's
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: sort of unlikable, if you're not Bill Murray, so going
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: into this, like, even halfway into this movie, I'm like,
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: this girl is still kind of a jerk, like, Are
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: we going to get to that turning point? Are we
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: going to get to see her sort of learn something
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: in her life? Because there's a lot of times through
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: the cycle that she is not really learning anything.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: One of my main problems with this movie, and it's
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: probably going to be a spoiler alert.
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: Okay, spoiler alert for Happy Death Day.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: When she's in the hospital, after how many deaths?
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: A lot, a lot.
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: The doctor's like, yeah, I don't know how you're alive
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: at this point. How does she fucking survive the movie
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: in general? Because if the doctor's like, how are you
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: still alive with all these injuries? She went through more.
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, but even if she did fix it at
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: the end, she still wakes up. She still have the injuries.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: You understand what I'm saying?
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: I mean, she learned her lesson. She fixed her life.
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: And then like after the credits roll, like the next
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: day with that dude, she has like a heart attack
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: because she'd taken so much impact over the year, years
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: or however long this thing went on. We don't really
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: know the timeframe, but I.
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: Don't know.
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: It, Again, I think this is one of those I'll
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: try to back off and far be it for me
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: to not overthink a movie. But I think after a while,
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: I was just like, all right, let's just go with it. Like,
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: I see what a crazy, silly premise they're going with here.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: And it's there for fun.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: I always thought it was strange that they were actually
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: letting her... When she was in the hospital, they were
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: acknowledging the injuries that she had and the life that she.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: It is weird that they brought it up. Like, to me,
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: if you're going to keep a movie that fun, they
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: just wouldn't even... Like, it would have no rules. There
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: would be no consequences.
• 14:46
  Speaker 8: Yeah, there wouldn't be that... Well, you got a broken
• 14:49
  Speaker 8: rib and you got burned here and you got a
• 14:51
  Speaker 8: scar from this.
• 14:51
  Speaker 9: Mm-hmm.
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: They actually acknowledge it, but then there's no actual repercussions
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: for it. Because I figured, like I said, she went
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: through several deaths after that scene.
• 14:59
  Speaker 8: Well, didn't they kind of make it sound like that
• 15:02
  Speaker 8: she could only keep going for so long before she
• 15:06
  Speaker 8: would just eventually succumb to her wounds?
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: I guess that's the hope, is you only have a
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: few left. So within those few, she figures out what
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: she needs to figure out and hopefully... It's the cat
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: with nine lives. She's on eight. As long as you're
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: good from that point on, you don't die. You live
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: the rest of your life. You're okay. So I'm going
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: to assume that's how it goes.
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: Hole in the plot to me because if they're going
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: to acknowledge the injuries, whatever, she should still have those
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: injuries at the very end. I agree.
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: But there's a lot of fun deaths along the way.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: But in the end, I do actually like that girl.
• 15:38
  Speaker 4: She's in the end.
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: In the end.
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: And again, because you see her actually learn something in general.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: But in particular, watching how she realizes, like, I've been
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: a horrible person. And then you do get a few
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: little moments of, like, oh, this is why. Like, it's
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: not just that she started out as a horrible person. Like,
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: she became this horrible person due to this thing going
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: on in her life. So, like, it does expand a
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: little bit. Again, I didn't expect a lot of deep
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: writing in this silly plot. But I enjoyed it. Yeah,
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: I think they do flesh out a little bit of
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: her character that gives it reason who she is and
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: why she does what she does. And then you watch
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: her kind of grow and learn and become not such
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: a jerk.
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: And the other are some interesting and fun deaths.
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: A lot of fun deaths. Yeah.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: And the fact that she learns her lesson enough. Spoiler alert.
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: Spoiler.
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: Major spoiler. If you're going to watch it, go watch
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: it now. Spoiler. At the end, her at the beginning
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: of the movie would not have done when she realizes that,
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: all right, if I don't die this time, this guy
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: who I now care about is He's dead for good.
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: So she sacrifices her life so she can start that
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: day all over again just so she can save him.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: Which to me shows a lot of growth in her
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: character because to her from the very beginning of that movie,
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: I'm like.
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: Peace out, bitch.
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: I'm done.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: So to me, she is a person at that point
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: that you're like, you know, she has learned something. She
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: really is okay. She not really sacrifices herself because she
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: gets to start all over again. But at that point,
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: she doesn't know how many times she gets to start
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: all over again.
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: I mean, to me, if you were having issues with
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: the injuries sustained, to me, the ones that were like... Wait, wait,
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: I'm calling bullshit on this. Like, the amount of things
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: that our killer, our weird babyface killer, was, like, orchestrating. Like,
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: you get to the one with, like, the music box
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: in the tunnel, and I'm like, there's so much stuff
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: that I'm just like, how did this person, even knowing,
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: and later knowing who it is, I'm like, how did
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: that person in particular... put all these elaborate plans together
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: for her to accidentally end up in this spot at
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: this moment, and then that still doesn't go right, but
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: somehow this person ends up getting over here to kill her. Yeah,
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: it's like if you want to overthink those scenes, you're
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: going to be annoyed. So just kind of go with
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: the death.
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: Just enjoy it for what it is.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: Enjoy the death.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: It's a fun slasher film. It's really good. It's a
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: lot of fun. Slasher fun, Groundhog Day. If that's what
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: you want in your life, which is something that I
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: generally look for in my life, I fully enjoyed it.
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: I just like time loop movies in general because I
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: like watching to see what they can do that's different.
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: I mean, there have been a handful of them, and
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: there's more lately. It's become a thing. The show I
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: just watched the other day did the exact same thing.
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: The Legends of Tomorrow or whatever the hell that show
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: is did the exact same thing. And even in the
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: episode of the show, they reference Groundhog Day. That's the
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: only way they could get the point across to the
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: characters in the show and the people sitting at home watching.
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: Like it is just sort of a shorthand now of like, oh,
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: it's like a Groundhog's Day kind of a plot.
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: So I.
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: Kind of like that just seeing how each one finds
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: a new spin to put on it and find a
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: different way to do it. So this is definitely a
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: different thing. You didn't expect him to do like, you know, granted, again,
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: in Groundhog's Day, we do see him die a lot.
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: But this one like that is kind of the joke
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: of it is like by the end, like you have
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: to go ahead and kill yourself just to start.
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: Over and Just to be able to save this person. Yeah.
• 19:02
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: Or just to figure out the next, like unraveling this mystery.
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: And the only way to do it is to constantly
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: get killed at the end of each one of them.
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: And like, Oh, I did that wrong. Let's try again tomorrow.
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: So it's, it was kind of, it's what I liked on, um,
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: what is the live, die, repeat one that, that again,
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: that wasn't actually a really, it was the Tom Cruise. Yeah.
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: The Tom Cruise one. That's a, whether you like Tom
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: Cruise or not, that's an awesome sci-fi movie. And is
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: a really interesting version of that same idea of like,
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: learning from your mistakes, going to the next day with
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: this new information, trying to figure out how to make
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: this plan work by dying every time. So, yeah, that
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: one is an impressive version of it. This one's just
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: kind of a fun version.
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: It's fun. It's good. clean fun, but there's a lot
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: of deaths.
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: Good dirty fun. Messy fun. Good bloody fun.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: I like when she actually just gives up too. When
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: she's just like walking around naked and she's just like, yeah,
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna do all the things that I never did
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: before because I don't care.
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: That's usually what you get to. We get that nice
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: little run in the middle of Groundhog's Day too. And
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: he's just like, whatever. Gonna go end up in jail
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: before the night's out.
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: Let a.
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: Groundhog drive the truck.
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: Good times. Who wouldn't do that? Should we roll on
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: to the next movie? Keep it rolling fast.
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: Because we're going to roll into one. We should probably
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: roll it together into two. Two, but one, because it's
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: the same thing from different decades, maybe?
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: We watched It. Both of them.
• 20:30
  Speaker 8: Both of them at one time.
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: Simultaneously. Simultaneously. We got two TVs.
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: First we watched the remake. We watched the new version first.
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: And then the next week we watched the original. I
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: am sorry. I know everybody loved the new Pennywise, and
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: I adore Bill Skarsgård, but just no.
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: No!
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: That weird thing he does with his... Joyce! Joyce! Shut the... Dude, stop!
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: You are not... Tim Curry, knock it off. I mean,
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: I like the characters so much better in the original movie.
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: Hmm.
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: I love Seth Green in that movie. I mean, he
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: is that character. I mean, I read the fucking book.
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: The longest goddamn book. And you loved it. But, I mean,
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: there's so much character build in the book.
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: Whether you want it.
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: The book's 10 billion years long.
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: Whether you want that goddamn character build or not, you're
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: going to get it. So, to me, the characters, he
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: was perfect. You know, the Jonathan Brandeis. Brandeis, Brandis, how
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: do you say it?
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: Brandis is how I think I've said it. I think
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: I've heard both ways, so who knows. It's been so
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: long since I've seen it, I don't even remember half
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: of it, especially the kids. I don't remember that cast
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: at all. I do remember most of the adults, but
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: just because they were already recognizable.
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: That was a game for me, because I'm like, holy crap,
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: I didn't know John Ritter was in this.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: Holy crap, I didn't know. I remember Anetto Tool or
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: John Boy.
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: I was just like, no, it's Super Boy's mom from Smallville.
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: I remember most of the adults.
• 22:00
  Speaker 8: What's his name from Night Court?
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: Richard Maul? Yeah. Or no, Harry Anderson.
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Harry Anderson.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: That was so big part to me. It was like, I.
• 22:13
  Speaker 8: Know you people.
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: Most of them were already established even when they went
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: into that.
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: But I had never actually seen this movie in its entirety,
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: so I didn't remember them being in there. I like
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: the casting better. I like the characters. They're obviously not
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: going to get the same amount of character development, which Dude,
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: if it took me as long to watch this movie,
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: it took me as long to read the book, I
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: would have just, no. I mean, the remake looked good,
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: but I didn't like the characters as well. I mean,
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: I like Bev.
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: That's what I was going to say. She's the standout,
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: and maybe not even character-wise, but that little girl is
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: going to be huge.
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: She's so good at that.
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: I mean, you know who Bev in the original movie was, right?
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: You probably might not know.
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: Again, it's been a long time.
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: She was in Ginger Snaps. Emily, Emily Perkins.
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 23:02
  Speaker 9: Yeah. Yeah.
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: You know, she was in ginger snap. She was in,
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: she's been in so many other things. She was in
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: an episode. She's in several episodes of supernatural love, supernatural,
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: but it's just my main problem with that first movie.
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: My only complaint that they not have gingers chicks. Cause
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's a big point in the book is
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: that Beverly is redheaded. And it's like, At least they
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: got that right in the remake.
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know why they did that.
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: Unless they just kidnapped two gingers. You can't have Seth
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: Green and some other chick because that's.
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: Just way too much ginger for one movie. Well, and
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: then she's redhead when she grows up. Like, Annette O'Toole
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: was a redhead. So, like, why would she grow up?
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: She wasn't overly redheaded. I guess maybe she.
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: Died a little more at that point. But, like, naturally,
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: she's a redhead.
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: She wasn't very red. It was kind of a dirty
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: blonde brown in the movie, right?
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's weird.
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: But, I mean, I still, I do want to see
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: the newest, the continuation, because, you know, as everybody who's
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: seen it knows, the new one only covers the childhood.
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: It is going to be interesting to see how they
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: deal with that. Like, how it's going to work, both, like,
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: comparing it to the fact that they kind of did,
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: they already covered both of them in that other version. And,
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: like you said, when you read the book, like, it
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: jumps back and forth. So, the fact that they kept
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: it very separate in this new version.
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: Because the first one is more accurate to the book.
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: Because it does... You skip back. Now you're in current times.
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: Now you're in this time. Now you're here.
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: I do kind of like focusing on it. I think
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: it does... Because the characters themselves are forgetting that this
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: happened and going back and revisiting it. So it is
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: kind of interesting that they're going to go back and
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: revisit that as a separate movie too. But I don't know.
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: So I think... I liked the newer one pretty well.
• 24:41
  Speaker 5: The new It.
• 24:41
  Speaker 6: But.
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: How did you feel about the new Pennywise? Again, he's very...
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: I said that for years. I was like, how do
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: you come with that role knowing how Tim Curry did it?
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: How can you do something that's even going to hold up?
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: And I think he does. He's making very distinct choices
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: and he's... I think it works in his own weird way.
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: To me, I have to separate it. A lot of
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: that face is his, right?
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I know.
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: The weird eye-drifty thing? Yeah. It's him.
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: And that's the thing i like i give him credit
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: i can't even do it it's awful it's it's he
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: i think he does do something interesting with that role
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: and that was the biggest hurdle that i thought going
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: into this project so yeah i don't know i think
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: i liked it okay but i also haven't watched the
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: old one since i was a kid more or less
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: and i haven't been in a big rush to revisit
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: it i don't know so maybe i'll Maybe I'll go
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: back and rewatch that one, but I was okay with
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: what they did. If anything, I felt like, and I
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: feel like they must have gotten made at the same time, really,
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: but I feel like it was pulling so much from
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: the Stranger Things vibe that the whole world loved that,
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: so I feel like it.
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: I mean, it still had one of the same cast members.
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: I know, that's what I'm saying. I feel like it
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: knew that when they were making it, and they were
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: trying to tap into that, because I feel like it
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: really has that going for it. And maybe not by accident.
• 26:01
  Speaker 3: So, I don't know.
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: I didn't like that there's only one major difference that
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: I've noticed in the first one and the second one.
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: And that's that in the first movie, Georgie's dead.
• 26:11
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: There is no ifs, ands, or buts. He's not missing.
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: Whereas in the new one, it's kind of like.
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: There's a lot of missing children in this movie.
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: Whereas in the first one, he's fucking dead, you know?
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: But again, maybe that's just adding... Because later we keep like.
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: He keeps.
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: toying with him and like showing him georgie and like
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: that's like like maybe he's trying to trick him into
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: okay he is still here come down here with me
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: and like that works better as a trap i guess
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: if we're still in the gray area as to is
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: did he just kidnap him and he's keeping them there
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: just to be able to lure his brother in but
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: yeah i don't know that's the only way i took
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: it is that it was reason for him to try
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: to keep going back in there when he thought he
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: could save his brother so i don't know but giant,
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: creepy monster people that might come up later as we
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: get into this.
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: Spiders?
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: No, but do you want to talk about spiders?
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: Because that's what everybody fucking talks... Everybody talks shit about
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: the end of the original It because of the spider.
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: It's in the book! Calm down, people! It's in the book!
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: It's not like they just pulled the spider out of
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: their asses. The spider is.
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: In the book!
• 27:19
  Speaker 4: Well, I think, too.
• 27:20
  Speaker 8: You've got to approach it at kind of looking at
• 27:22
  Speaker 8: it from that Lovecraftian view. of it being one of
• 27:26
  Speaker 8: the older gods. It's something that I never really looked at.
• 27:29
  Speaker 8: When I first saw the movie when I was a kid, well,
• 27:31
  Speaker 8: I don't know if I was a kid, maybe I
• 27:32
  Speaker 8: was a teenager, when I saw the movie and at
• 27:34
  Speaker 8: the end it's a spider, I thought, oh, that's so stupid,
• 27:37
  Speaker 8: that's dumb. It would have been scarier if it was
• 27:40
  Speaker 8: a weird ghosty guy. But then the more I started reading,
• 27:44
  Speaker 8: like when I was getting into Lovecraft and getting into Cthulhu,
• 27:47
  Speaker 8: and then I go back and look at this and
• 27:49
  Speaker 8: then kind of revisit it, it makes more sense to me.
• 27:52
  Speaker 8: Why he would be a spider or some kind of
• 27:58
  Speaker 8: ancient alien.
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: At least the turtle isn't in it.
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: Yeah, turtles.
• 28:03
  Speaker 8: And why he would drive these people insane. So I
• 28:07
  Speaker 8: don't know if he taps into any of that. Maybe
• 28:09
  Speaker 8: he drew from Lovecraft or not. Maybe he did, maybe
• 28:12
  Speaker 8: he didn't. But I can see the parallels, so that's
• 28:16
  Speaker 8: where I'm going with it.
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: The glory and wonder of Doug Jones and all his
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: monster wonderfulness.
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: While we're discussing people dressing up as creepy monster guys,
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: we might mention that Pennywise character in a little bit.
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: Because now, yeah, we're not going to go down that road.
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: We're going to talk to the king of all monster men,
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: the guy that you want when you are casting your
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: movie and you want a giant dude in latex, you
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: want Doug Jones. Because not only is he an awesome monster,
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: but obviously, as you'll see, he's cool.
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: To hang out with.
• 28:49
  Speaker 8: He is one of the nicest people I've ever met
• 28:52
  Speaker 8: in my life.
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: And genuinely nice.
• 28:55
  Speaker 8: Not like most people I meet that are nice are
• 28:58
  Speaker 8: generally like, What can I get from you, Nice? He
• 29:02
  Speaker 8: is not like that. He is probably one of the
• 29:04
  Speaker 8: most genuine people I've met.
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: And as he's going to mention, he deals with that
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: version of that himself. So yeah, it's interesting that this
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: ride that he's been on and the fact that he
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: is still this genuine and this nice and this kind
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: of cool to hang out with. So I think we
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: should go hang out with him right now for this
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: week's movie.
• 29:28
  Speaker 12: Thank you.
• 29:37
  Speaker 13: Thank you.

• 32:04
  Speaker 2: quite possibly, one of the newest members of Movie Meltdown.
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: If I can ever actually get to the movies.
• 32:11
  Speaker 6: But I'll review some old 80s rom-coms for you.
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: See ya. It had to be you. It had to
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: be you.
• 32:25
  Speaker 7: I wandered around.
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: And finally found the somebody who... That's part of your problem,
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: you know.
• 32:33
  Speaker 8: You haven't seen enough movies.
• 32:35
  Speaker 10: All of life's riddles are answered in the movies.
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: And now, on with the show.
• 32:44
  Speaker 13: I didn't actually watch the movies.
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: There's a reason.
• 33:09
  Speaker 4: We'll get to that.
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: Like something dramatic?
• 33:14
  Speaker 5: That's why I love talking about my chick flicks with
• 33:19
  Speaker 5: your show.
• 33:19
  Speaker 3: You probably talk about gory things and sci-fi things.
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: Quite often. I guess we should do the rundown now
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: that we're here to talk about the movies.
• 33:29
  Speaker 3: Are we running?
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: We are up and running. And this is Doug.
• 33:33
  Speaker 3: Hey, I'm Doug Jones. Hi.
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: Joining us also is... Hi, Lucy. Misty and Jay are here,
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: but they were frightened off by this week's movie, so
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: we won't get too far into it.
• 33:48
  Speaker 8: Out of the both of us, I had volunteered to
• 33:51
  Speaker 8: watch the movie.
• 33:52
  Speaker 4: She said no.
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: Hey, you know what? I watched the trailer, so I
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: think I.
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: And that was enough to scare you. Before we get going,
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: while you're here, Jay, do you want to ask about
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: your really pressing, most favorite character of Doug's?
• 34:07
  Speaker 8: The Mac Tonight Moon Man.
• 34:09
  Speaker 3: That's your favorite character of mine?
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: My favorite character. I might be exaggerating a little.
• 34:14
  Speaker 8: I didn't know this, okay? And then you'd done an interview,
• 34:18
  Speaker 8: and it showed up on my Facebook, and you were
• 34:22
  Speaker 8: talking about being the, I guess, was that your first gig?
• 34:27
  Speaker 3: One of my first, yeah. Your fourth TV commercial booking
• 34:29
  Speaker 3: back in 1986.
• 34:30
  Speaker 8: That commercial stands out in my mind. I don't know why,
• 34:35
  Speaker 8: but as a kid, I was like, That's the coolest
• 34:38
  Speaker 8: thing I've ever seen.
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: It's a guy with a huge moon head.
• 34:40
  Speaker 3: Right. For those who don't know listening, it was a
• 34:45
  Speaker 3: long time ago. So you might have some young folks
• 34:47
  Speaker 3: who have no idea who Mac Tonight is. A crescent
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: moon head with a face on it.
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: I think it is on YouTube, though.
• 34:51
  Speaker 3: It's on the YouTube. M-A-C Tonight. T-O-N-I-G-H-T.
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: Mac Tonight.
• 34:57
  Speaker 3: If you Google that or YouTube that, you'll find the
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: commercials online. And it was a very popular campaign, 27
• 35:04
  Speaker 3: commercials I did in three years, and bought my first
• 35:07
  Speaker 3: house with that. So I owe McDonald's a condo.
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 35:12
  Speaker 8: But somebody had told me, or actually watching the video,
• 35:15
  Speaker 8: I was like, told her, I was like, holy crap.
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: He's the moon man. Oh, my God. I think you
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: just got confused that you thought it was moon night. No, no, no, no. No,
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: not moon night. Not moon night. Soon you will be
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: starring in the Moon Knight movie, once.
• 35:30
  Speaker 3: Marvel gets a hold of you. Is Moon Knight a
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: Marvel character?
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: He's a Marvel character that's kind of forgotten.
• 35:34
  Speaker 3: And having played a Marvel character, I should know this,
• 35:36
  Speaker 3: but I don't.
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: There you go, see? You've already got the inside.
• 35:38
  Speaker 3: Track on this one.
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: Okay, all right. All right, well, if we've covered that, let's...
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: I think.
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: We've covered that.
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: If you have other important.
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: Mac Tonight stuff... That's enough for.
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: A TV commercial from 1986.
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 35:49
  Speaker 8: Did you get any free food off that, I was wondering?
• 35:52
  Speaker 3: Oh, no, they paid me. And if I wanted to
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: buy burgers, that's up to me. Sometimes... I did not
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: get a lifetime card of any sort. That'd be great.
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: Rip off.
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: Because I do love me some drive-thru dollar menu. I'm
• 36:03
  Speaker 3: not going to lie. I'm not going to lie about it.
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: This episode is brought to you.
• 36:10
  Speaker 4: Could be.
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: Right?
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: I'm waiting for my, I want a condo out of
• 36:13
  Speaker 2: this deal too. So McDonald's, get a hold of me
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: is what I'm saying.
• 36:17
  Speaker 4: It's time for Sofa Theater.
• 36:22
  Speaker 12: A very ordinary boy bumps into a girl.
• 36:25
  Speaker 9: Oh my.
• 36:27
  Speaker 12: And takes her home.
• 36:28
  Speaker 8: The bathroom's on the top floor.
• 36:30
  Speaker 12: It happens all the time. But she is no ordinary girl.
• 36:38
  Speaker 12: She is Anna Scott, the most famous film star in
• 36:42
  Speaker 12: the world. And when they get together, everyone has something
• 36:46
  Speaker 12: to say.
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: Anna Scott!
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: Anna Scott!
• 36:48
  Speaker 4: Anna Scott!
• 36:49
  Speaker 3: Hello, Anna.
• 36:50
  Speaker 10: Scott.
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: Hi, guys.
• 36:53
  Speaker 11: Oh, Jesus, fuck!
• 36:57
  Speaker 3: They always do that when I leave the house.
• 36:59
  Speaker 8: This is a peculiarly strange person to have got involved with.
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: It's not Fergie, is it? You must be Spike.
• 37:10
  Speaker 3: Thank you, God.
• 37:11
  Speaker 14: I don't want to interfere on the thing, but she's
• 37:14
  Speaker 14: in your house.
• 37:15
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 37:15
  Speaker 7: Well, isn't this perhaps a nice opportunity to.
• 37:20
  Speaker 4: Slipper one.
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: Spike.
• 37:22
  Speaker 12: But when two worlds collide.
• 37:24
  Speaker 8: I live.
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: In Notting Hill, you live in Beverly Hills. Everyone in
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: the world knows who you are. and the news is bad.
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: Tomorrow, there'll be pictures of you in every newspaper in
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: your goddamn underwear!
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: And getting worse.
• 37:34
  Speaker 10: I went out in my goddamn underwear, too.
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: Get out!
• 37:37
  Speaker 12: How does an ordinary boy.
• 37:38
  Speaker 4: Let's stay calm.
• 37:39
  Speaker 7: No, you can stay calm!
• 37:40
  Speaker 12: Keep the most famous girl in the world?
• 37:43
  Speaker 3: The fame thing isn't really real.
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: I'm also just a girl.
• 37:47
  Speaker 11: Standing in front of a boy.
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: Asking him to love her.
• 37:52
  Speaker 3: You daft prick.
• 37:55
  Speaker 12: The creators of Four Weddings and a Funeral invite you
• 37:58
  Speaker 12: to join Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant in a place
• 38:04
  Speaker 12: called Notting Hill.
• 38:05
  Speaker 11: I wouldn't want to go outside.
• 38:13
  Speaker 13: It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart.
• 38:43
  Speaker 7: Without saying a word You can light.
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: Up the dark.
• 38:54
  Speaker 7: Try as I may I can never explain What I
• 39:00
  Speaker 7: hear when you don't say.
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: A thing.
• 39:09
  Speaker 7: The smile on your face lets me know that you
• 39:13
  Speaker 7: need me There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll
• 39:18
  Speaker 7: never leave me The touch of your hand says you'll
• 39:23
  Speaker 7: catch me wherever I fall. You say it best.
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: When you say nothing at all. All right, so once again,
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: you've chosen a film, and it's, again, for the monster
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: man that you are.
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: You've gone a little outside your genre.
• 39:48
  Speaker 3: A little.
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: But not a surprise for anyone who's listened to your
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: previous episodes on Movie Meltdown. Right, right. This week's Sober
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: Theater feature is Notting Hill.
• 39:57
  Speaker 3: Notting Hill, yes!
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: The year is 1999. Yes, it was. The director is
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: Roger Mitchell, and the plot, according to IMDb... which is
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: minimal as always, the life of a simple bookshop owner
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: changes when he meets the most famous film star in
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: the world. Yes.
• 40:16
  Speaker 3: Spoiler alert.
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: We're going to ruin this. So if you haven't seen it,
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: like several people sitting here today, just, yeah, go.
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: I have no desire to see this, so it's not
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: like you're really going to spoil it. That's true. It
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: came out the year I graduated high school, so if
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: I was going to see it.
• 40:29
  Speaker 3: You would if I know.
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: I probably would.
• 40:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: So I guess as we ease our way into it,
• 40:35
  Speaker 2: I mean, we're all friends here, Doug. We're all super
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: honest because I have my issues with this movie. So
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: I'm going to be as respectful as I can.
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: No, no, it's fine.
• 40:46
  Speaker 3: I didn't make it. I'm not in it. I just
• 40:49
  Speaker 3: like it. So go ahead.
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: But I know it's not somewhere in time. So I
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: don't want to crush your favorite movie ever. So this one,
• 40:55
  Speaker 2: I figure we got a little more leeway on.
• 40:56
  Speaker 3: That's right. You're welcome.
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: Leave all the crushing to me.
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's what you do.
• 41:01
  Speaker 3: We've already talked about Somewhere in Time and Meet Joe Black.
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
• 41:04
  Speaker 3: And what was the other one you said?
• 41:06
  Speaker 6: I was only there for Somewhere in Time.
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: You were there for Somewhere in Time? You were there
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: for this.
• 41:12
  Speaker 3: Why can I not ever remember the name of my
• 41:15
  Speaker 3: dear friend Jennifer Lawrence's movie? It was Silver Linings Playbook.
• 41:18
  Speaker 3: Silver Linings Playbook.
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: I was there for that.
• 41:20
  Speaker 3: That's right. It was also another hotel room. We all
• 41:23
  Speaker 3: sat around it.
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: Which is what we do.
• 41:24
  Speaker 3: That's what we do. I have not watched any of these.
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this one is, yeah, this one's, I do, I
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: will say it's an interesting perspective and story. And I
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: like that we get right off the bat, we get
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: this sort of like run through with the credits where
• 41:37
  Speaker 2: we get sort of blurring the line of real world
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: Julia Roberts. and who this character is, because it's just
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: pulling footage that's her on red carpet.
• 41:45
  Speaker 3: Basically played herself, yeah.
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, she's essentially playing herself.
• 41:49
  Speaker 3: All set to that music by... Which, isn't that Elvis Costello?
• 41:55
  Speaker 6: It was, but it was originally... The Frenchman, whose name
• 41:59
  Speaker 6: is not popping.
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: Charles Aznavour.
• 42:01
  Speaker 3: Oh, was it really?
• 42:02
  Speaker 6: Yeah, he popularized it. It's a much better version.
• 42:04
  Speaker 3: Well, it's a great song.
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: It is a great song.
• 42:06
  Speaker 2: It is a good song. I think that kind of
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: helps in both incidences where they use it, as we'll
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: come back to later.
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes.
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: But I think it is interesting. I think it's also
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: something I guess she was kind of interested in because
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: it's a couple years later when she does, what is it,
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: Ocean's Twelve. And she's playing... Julia Roberts and another character
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: all in the same movie.
• 42:27
  Speaker 3: That's right. That's right.
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: It's yeah, I guess something she was kind of interested in,
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: but I don't know. Where do we, where do we
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: want to go as we get? Cause I think that's
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: kind of interesting. I don't think the, the overall idea
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: of like dealing with the idea of a normal person
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: coming in contact with in general, but on top of that,
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: like starting a relationship with someone who is one of
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: the most famous people in the world. Like I think
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: there's a lot of material there. I don't know if
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: they fully take it where it should go.
• 42:57
  Speaker 6: But also presaged, presaged.
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: How do you say that?
• 43:00
  Speaker 6: I've only read it.
• 43:01
  Speaker 2: Presage.
• 43:01
  Speaker 6: I've never tried to say this word.
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: Anyway, it anticipated.
• 43:04
  Speaker 3: I don't even know this word.
• 43:05
  Speaker 6: It anticipated her real life experience where she had a
• 43:08
  Speaker 6: relationship with Danny Motor, who was just a dude who
• 43:11
  Speaker 6: was a cameraman.
• 43:12
  Speaker 9: Right.
• 43:12
  Speaker 6: And then all of a sudden was thrust into the spotlight.
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: So.
• 43:15
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 43:15
  Speaker 6: Nobody saw that coming. And then life imitated art.
• 43:18
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: Because up to that point, it was like Kiefer Sutherland
• 43:21
  Speaker 2: and then her weird marriage to Lyle and all this other. So, yeah.
• 43:25
  Speaker 6: Maybe she was like, this could work.
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: She's like, no, no, regular people. You guys are annoying. No,
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: thank you.
• 43:29
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 43:30
  Speaker 3: But what.
• 43:31
  Speaker 2: See, but.
• 43:33
  Speaker 3: What sings to me about it off the bat, the
• 43:35
  Speaker 3: basic plot line is that Hugh Grant plays this humble
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: little bookshop owner. in uh in uh what was that
• 43:42
  Speaker 3: in uh in uh notting hill that's the name of
• 43:45
  Speaker 3: the movie uh and and one day julia roberts a
• 43:49
  Speaker 3: character uh i forget her name in the movie was
• 43:52
  Speaker 3: her character name was something blocked it out.
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: It's very simple like julia roberts yeah yeah i should
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: have looked she is her own like stand-in version of.
• 44:01
  Speaker 3: Herself happens into the this uh she was filming something
• 44:04
  Speaker 3: in the in the town and then came came through
• 44:06
  Speaker 3: the bookshop just looking for some books and And he notices,
• 44:09
  Speaker 3: oh my gosh, that's that very famous actress. Anna? Anna, yes.
• 44:14
  Speaker 3: Anna Kent or Anna Scott.
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: There we go.
• 44:19
  Speaker 3: There you go.
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: As I look it up.
• 44:21
  Speaker 3: We did it. So she plays Anna Scott, who's like
• 44:24
  Speaker 3: the Julia Roberts in film land.
• 44:26
  Speaker 4: In this world.
• 44:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah. And so right away, I was interested because being
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: in the showbiz myself as an actor, when I.
• 44:37
  Speaker 3: Brush with and meet and enjoy and like and and
• 44:40
  Speaker 3: connect with someone who's not in show business the differences
• 44:43
  Speaker 3: come out immediately and have to be dealt with right
• 44:46
  Speaker 3: because it's a different world that i live in and
• 44:49
  Speaker 3: uh and it's becoming more of that the farther i
• 44:51
  Speaker 3: go since we first started talking more has happened for
• 44:54
  Speaker 3: me oh yeah so this story the notting hill story
• 44:55
  Speaker 3: is becoming more real to me every time i watch
• 44:57
  Speaker 3: it now.
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: As you're in a not to brag for you an
• 45:00
  Speaker 2: academy award-winning film as of last week.
• 45:04
  Speaker 3: Thank you. Right. So last Sunday, for instance, I was
• 45:07
  Speaker 3: just on the world stage with a billion viewers watching worldwide.
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: We were one of them. We were sitting there watching going, Doug!
• 45:14
  Speaker 3: Right. So that's a very surreal situation to be in
• 45:17
  Speaker 3: when you're hopping up on stage with the best picture
• 45:19
  Speaker 3: win and all the red carpet attention right ahead of time.
• 45:22
  Speaker 3: I was on the E! channel with Julianna Rancic ahead
• 45:24
  Speaker 3: of time. So all of that nonsense. You were crazy, crazy.
• 45:27
  Speaker 3: And then the next day, I'm taking the trash out
• 45:29
  Speaker 3: at my house. Right? So real life has to happen
• 45:33
  Speaker 3: in conjunction with this crazy glamorized life. So that's why
• 45:37
  Speaker 3: I really relate to Notting Hill.
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: That is one of the things I was going to
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: ask you, because just seeing you again over the years
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: that we've been doing this, and I will try to
• 45:48
  Speaker 2: stay out of the way and let you do what
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: you have to do. But because of that, I didn't
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: get like firsthand action of like watching people fall all
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: over themselves on occasion or completely clam up or get
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: super freaked out by it all.
• 46:01
  Speaker 3: On the convention floor?
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. When you're dealing with people. Because again, I
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: feel like in this world more than anywhere else, you
• 46:07
  Speaker 2: probably are like, you can't walk through the building as
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: we were talking about before we got here. So in
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: the grocery, you might have a shot depending on what
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: you're doing.
• 46:17
  Speaker 3: And right now, just for your listeners to know, we're
• 46:20
  Speaker 3: at Lexington Comic and Toy Convention. Comic and Toy Convention, right.
• 46:25
  Speaker 3: And it's been really busy and crazy.
• 46:28
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 46:29
  Speaker 3: But again, coming off the Oscars last week, but I've
• 46:31
  Speaker 3: gotten more press this year than ever in my life.
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 46:34
  Speaker 3: I probably have done more press and more profile pieces
• 46:38
  Speaker 3: in like IndieWire, BuzzFeed, New York Times, LA Times, with
• 46:41
  Speaker 3: my own face showing. So I've gotten more face recognition
• 46:44
  Speaker 3: this year than in my entire 30 years combined.
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 46:48
  Speaker 3: So that's making it a bit more crazy to walk
• 46:50
  Speaker 3: through a crowd that is a comic fan base.
• 46:53
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 46:54
  Speaker 3: So, yeah, so it's a little kooky.
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: A little kooky. I think, again, in this world, in
• 46:58
  Speaker 2: the convention world, I think you are kind of that,
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: almost that level where she can't walk down the street.
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: So again, here, it's like you're trying to walk through
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: a convention to just go get a sandwich. You know,
• 47:08
  Speaker 2: it's like, it's a lost cause for you.
• 47:10
  Speaker 3: You know, it'll take an hour.
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: But, but I mean, how, I mean, how has that been,
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: I think, with you just, because that's what you kind
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: of watch is her having to deal with everyone around her.
• 47:20
  Speaker 2: It's not just Hugh Grant's character. It's, Everyone that he knows,
• 47:24
  Speaker 2: everyone she comes in contact with, you suddenly hit this
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: wall of, oh, I know who you are. And then
• 47:29
  Speaker 2: everything changes immediately.
• 47:32
  Speaker 3: And one of my favorite scenes regarding that issue is
• 47:34
  Speaker 3: the dinner. When Hugh Grant asks her, hey, what are
• 47:40
  Speaker 3: you doing tonight? And he's like, oh, crap, I got
• 47:41
  Speaker 3: to go to my sister's dinner party for her birthday.
• 47:45
  Speaker 3: And Julia says, well, can I come along with?
• 47:48
  Speaker 9: Right.
• 47:48
  Speaker 3: Which is something I would do.
• 47:49
  Speaker 2: That wouldn't surprise me. Right.
• 47:51
  Speaker 3: Right. So, so they end up in this, in this,
• 47:54
  Speaker 3: you know, regular house with these regular people. And, and
• 47:58
  Speaker 3: everybody's like, oh my God, it's Scott.
• 48:00
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 48:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 48:01
  Speaker 3: Except for that one guy.
• 48:02
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 48:03
  Speaker 2: There's always somebody clueless in the group.
• 48:05
  Speaker 3: I know that guy. I've met that guy more times
• 48:08
  Speaker 3: than I can count. And so I think he was,
• 48:10
  Speaker 3: he was the guy played by the fellow from Downton Abbey.
• 48:13
  Speaker 3: Another thing you probably don't watch.
• 48:15
  Speaker 2: Every week.
• 48:16
  Speaker 3: He was Lord something that was the head of the
• 48:20
  Speaker 3: household there in that show. But so he comes in
• 48:23
  Speaker 3: and says, oh, Anna, nice to meet you.
• 48:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 48:26
  Speaker 3: And he's like, so now what is it you do? Oh,
• 48:28
  Speaker 3: I'm an actress.
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: Oh, how great.
• 48:30
  Speaker 3: Oh, it must be hard.
• 48:31
  Speaker 4: Must be hard.
• 48:31
  Speaker 3: Must be hard scraping by.
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: Scraping by.
• 48:33
  Speaker 3: Just like, yeah. And so she's like, well, yeah, no.
• 48:35
  Speaker 10: Mm-hmm.
• 48:36
  Speaker 3: It's been okay. I have some friends who have been
• 48:39
  Speaker 3: doing theater for years. They can't scrape up two pennies together.
• 48:43
  Speaker 3: And so she's kind of listening and taking it in.
• 48:44
  Speaker 3: And so he finally asked her, so how much money
• 48:50
  Speaker 3: can you make or do you make, you know? And
• 48:52
  Speaker 3: I've been asked this question more times than I can count.
• 48:55
  Speaker 3: People are just boldly asking, so how much you make
• 48:57
  Speaker 3: on that movie, right?
• 48:58
  Speaker 2: It's a little rude, but it's how people are. Right, right.
• 49:00
  Speaker 3: So when she says to him, well, $ 15 million, that's
• 49:04
  Speaker 3: when he figures out, oh, she's somebody I should know.
• 49:06
  Speaker 2: Oh, crap, right? What I thought was funny is I
• 49:09
  Speaker 2: was like, yeah, I was doing the math. I'm like,
• 49:11
  Speaker 2: 99 female star? Yeah, yeah. The guys were making $ 40 million,
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: but she wasn't lying. That's probably what she would have
• 49:17
  Speaker 2: been making.
• 49:17
  Speaker 3: At that point. I think at that point she had reached,
• 49:19
  Speaker 3: it was that when was aaron brockovich right after this
• 49:21
  Speaker 3: because she was doing the 20 million at that point.
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: That bumped her up because yeah oscar nomination right.
• 49:27
  Speaker 3: And win she won yeah so crazy crazy.
• 49:30
  Speaker 6: Time I was looking at the trivia about the movie,
• 49:32
  Speaker 6: and apparently that was the actual amount she made for
• 49:34
  Speaker 6: Notting Hill.
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 49:35
  Speaker 6: And when they did the first couple takes, she said
• 49:37
  Speaker 6: 10 million, and then the second take, she said 12 million.
• 49:39
  Speaker 2: Is that right?
• 49:40
  Speaker 6: Yeah, she said 15 million.
• 49:42
  Speaker 3: I did not know that. Good for you, yes.
• 49:44
  Speaker 6: But I have actually been that person, by the way.
• 49:46
  Speaker 6: I was on a train, a cross-country train with John
• 49:49
  Speaker 6: Hawks for two days, where I was giving him pep
• 49:50
  Speaker 6: talks about acting.
• 49:51
  Speaker 9: Oh.
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: Bless my heart.
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: We'll get it together one day.
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: I'm encouraging him, like, yeah, there's a future for you.
• 49:58
  Speaker 2: You got this.
• 49:59
  Speaker 6: I know you're a farm boy from Minnesota, but you
• 50:01
  Speaker 6: can do this thing.
• 50:02
  Speaker 3: Oh, and he was gracious, wasn't he?
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: So gracious. Never told me.
• 50:06
  Speaker 6: And this was sort of the, you know, there weren't
• 50:07
  Speaker 6: smartphones then. You couldn't, like, figure things out that way.
• 50:10
  Speaker 2: You couldn't look them up fast and say, who is this?
• 50:11
  Speaker 6: When I got home, I was like, oh, my God,
• 50:12
  Speaker 6: you're such an idiot.
• 50:13
  Speaker 3: What have I done?
• 50:14
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 50:14
  Speaker 3: Oh, when you got back to your desktop computer. When
• 50:16
  Speaker 3: I got back to it.
• 50:17
  Speaker 6: A giant desktop to computer that took up the whole thing.
• 50:22
  Speaker 2: Sure, sure, of course. Well, that's, I mean, again, that's
• 50:26
  Speaker 2: just you kind of coming in contact with people. But
• 50:29
  Speaker 2: on top of that, I guess we also get to
• 50:32
  Speaker 2: a weird little angle once they sort of go into
• 50:35
  Speaker 2: this relationship thing. So that was, again, to try to
• 50:39
  Speaker 2: get your take on it. You've been involved in a
• 50:41
  Speaker 2: relationship for many years now. Yeah. And Seemingly, she's not
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: thrilled with a lot of this nonsense that you have
• 50:48
  Speaker 2: to do.
• 50:48
  Speaker 3: Mrs. Dory doesn't hang around in public a lot. So
• 50:50
  Speaker 3: getting her to come out of the house and dress up.
• 50:53
  Speaker 3: She takes the Oscars. She went to the Oscars with me.
• 50:56
  Speaker 3: I saw the photos. She went to the Golden Globes
• 50:57
  Speaker 3: with me as well. She's great. But she likes to
• 51:01
  Speaker 3: be out of the limelight. So getting interviewed on the
• 51:04
  Speaker 3: red carpet with George Pinocchio from ABC was kind of like, wait,
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: we're going nationwide right now?
• 51:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 51:12
  Speaker 3: But see, here's what happens, too, when you get to
• 51:14
  Speaker 3: that level, which is really sweet. I was wearing borrowed
• 51:17
  Speaker 3: clothes from Armani.
• 51:18
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 51:19
  Speaker 3: And they fitted me.
• 51:20
  Speaker 2: You aren't wearing Armani every day?
• 51:21
  Speaker 3: No, I would love to.
• 51:23
  Speaker 4: Are you kidding?
• 51:23
  Speaker 2: Armani, get a hold of this.
• 51:24
  Speaker 3: I know, I know. And Mrs. Laurie was wearing a
• 51:27
  Speaker 3: jewel that was on loan from Safi Kalima. It was
• 51:30
  Speaker 3: Tanzanite circled with diamonds. Shut up.
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: Nice.
• 51:33
  Speaker 3: No, no.
• 51:33
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: Nice.
• 51:34
  Speaker 3: So just to let you know. that necklace was worth
• 51:36
  Speaker 3: more than the house I grew up in.
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 51:39
  Speaker 3: So the next day after the Oscars, they came in
• 51:41
  Speaker 3: a armored truck with a guy with a gun on
• 51:43
  Speaker 3: his side to come collect the necklace from our house.
• 51:46
  Speaker 3: So that's, That's an experience that normal people just don't have.
• 51:50
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 51:50
  Speaker 3: And I never want this to become normal. I want
• 51:54
  Speaker 3: to realize how ridiculous this all is. So that's why
• 51:58
  Speaker 3: I like to go to the birthday party at the
• 51:59
  Speaker 3: house with the regular people.
• 52:01
  Speaker 2: Does she still have issues with just some of the
• 52:04
  Speaker 2: other stuff? I mean, if she avoids it, but as
• 52:07
  Speaker 2: far as like, I guess your treatment by people or
• 52:09
  Speaker 2: that kind of thing.
• 52:10
  Speaker 3: The Comic-Con atmosphere is just too chaotic for her. She
• 52:14
  Speaker 3: went to Comic-Con in San Diego with me Twice. And
• 52:17
  Speaker 3: I think she'll be done with that for a lifetime now.
• 52:19
  Speaker 2: It's overwhelming for me, and I do this every couple.
• 52:22
  Speaker 3: Of weeks of my life. It was exhausting for her,
• 52:25
  Speaker 3: and she wasn't the one having to answer everybody's questions about,
• 52:29
  Speaker 3: how long is this for makeup for when you're wearing
• 52:32
  Speaker 3: this fish thing?
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: That's exactly what I was going to ask you next.
• 52:36
  Speaker 2: Wait a minute. You stole my question.
• 52:40
  Speaker 3: By the way, the fact that people want to know
• 52:43
  Speaker 3: is a huge compliment to me. If anyone's been seeing
• 52:46
  Speaker 3: anything I've been in, I love them and I adore
• 52:49
  Speaker 3: them for it.
• 52:50
  Speaker 2: I think a few people.
• 52:51
  Speaker 3: A few. That's very sweet.
• 52:54
  Speaker 2: I don't know. Some of my... What were your issues
• 52:58
  Speaker 2: with nodding?
• 52:59
  Speaker 8: Do you want my.
• 53:01
  Speaker 2: Bigger issue or like the basic stuff as we get
• 53:03
  Speaker 2: into it like it's just very light very light stuff
• 53:07
  Speaker 2: like this guy well first of all that anybody what
• 53:10
  Speaker 2: a quaint time in 99 when you could have a
• 53:12
  Speaker 2: bookstore but on top of that a super specialized bookstore
• 53:16
  Speaker 2: travel only travel books like wow this could not exist
• 53:21
  Speaker 2: in this world it's rather specific yeah but on top
• 53:23
  Speaker 2: of that i also i We were in his life
• 53:26
  Speaker 2: for at least a good year and a half, two
• 53:28
  Speaker 2: year span. He doesn't ever seem like he travels. Why
• 53:32
  Speaker 2: is this? I feel like... Look at you.
• 53:35
  Speaker 9: A guy.
• 53:37
  Speaker 2: I'm like, how are you? He just reads the books?
• 53:40
  Speaker 2: He's running a business.
• 53:41
  Speaker 3: When does he have time to travel?
• 53:43
  Speaker 2: But if you're in love with travel, wouldn't you want
• 53:45
  Speaker 2: to get out there? Just a one week out of
• 53:48
  Speaker 2: the year.
• 53:49
  Speaker 3: He probably already did the traveling and now he owns
• 53:51
  Speaker 3: the bookshop to talk about it. I don't know.
• 53:53
  Speaker 2: I didn't see him packing his bags.
• 53:56
  Speaker 3: He spent all his money on travel exactly.
• 54:00
  Speaker 6: That's what makes it poetic he lives a life of
• 54:02
  Speaker 6: fantasy and then fantasy becomes his real life and then
• 54:05
  Speaker 6: he doesn't know how to deal with.
• 54:06
  Speaker 2: It I thought maybe that's what they were going but
• 54:08
  Speaker 2: they never addressed that I thought maybe it was more
• 54:10
  Speaker 2: of an it's a wonderful life thing of like my
• 54:12
  Speaker 2: dream is to travel the world and then the world
• 54:14
  Speaker 2: scrapes you over and your whole life is spent not
• 54:17
  Speaker 2: doing what it is you wanted to do. That would
• 54:19
  Speaker 2: actually be kind of ironic. And like, I would give
• 54:21
  Speaker 2: them that one, but they don't ever really take it
• 54:23
  Speaker 2: down that road.
• 54:24
  Speaker 6: They let you take it down that road.
• 54:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah. It's kind of lazy writing, but anyway, go ahead.
• 54:31
  Speaker 3: No, dish all you want, baby. Okay.
• 54:35
  Speaker 2: No, I think my main issue with it is once
• 54:37
  Speaker 2: we get into this, like, And it's really weird because
• 54:41
  Speaker 2: I– we've had some snide comments about Julia over the years,
• 54:45
  Speaker 2: but I really grew up, like, really liking Julia Roberts.
• 54:48
  Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 54:48
  Speaker 2: And, like, I was sucked in for Pretty Woman like
• 54:50
  Speaker 2: the rest of America. Like, I was totally on board.
• 54:53
  Speaker 2: I think she is very likable and has a real, like,
• 54:58
  Speaker 2: just sort of spark on screen.
• 54:59
  Speaker 9: She does.
• 55:00
  Speaker 2: I don't really like her in this movie. You didn't really?
• 55:03
  Speaker 2: I feel like there's– not only is there not really
• 55:06
  Speaker 2: chemistry between these two characters– But I feel like she
• 55:09
  Speaker 2: just never comes off as warm.
• 55:12
  Speaker 7: Ever.
• 55:12
  Speaker 3: They're on again, off again, on again, off again a
• 55:14
  Speaker 3: few times throughout the movie because of the differences from
• 55:16
  Speaker 3: where they come from.
• 55:17
  Speaker 2: Almost feels like going through the motions version of it too.
• 55:20
  Speaker 2: I don't ever feel like there's a connection there that
• 55:23
  Speaker 2: would bring them back together as a couple. I kind
• 55:26
  Speaker 2: of wish that there was. But I think that's my thing.
• 55:29
  Speaker 2: As we get into this, like, that's what I'm like,
• 55:31
  Speaker 2: I don't even know how you strip that out of
• 55:33
  Speaker 2: Julia Roberts. But I'm like, I would really want it
• 55:36
  Speaker 2: to be like there's, you know, this... Cause she even
• 55:39
  Speaker 2: has the guy, she's just a girl and she's just
• 55:42
  Speaker 2: kind of the, the, the fame is all kind of fake,
• 55:44
  Speaker 2: but based on her like behavior throughout it, I'm like,
• 55:48
  Speaker 2: you're not really selling there. If there was some normal
• 55:51
  Speaker 2: girl underneath it, that was super warm and super likable.
• 55:54
  Speaker 2: I could understand like, okay, this is, this is who
• 55:57
  Speaker 2: he falls in love with. Not everybody else wants the
• 55:59
  Speaker 2: fame version, but he actually genuinely cares about this girl.
• 56:03
  Speaker 2: But I don't even feel like we ever get to that.
• 56:05
  Speaker 2: I think she just sort of goes through the motions
• 56:07
  Speaker 2: of being the super celebrity that she is. And then he,
• 56:11
  Speaker 2: I don't even know what draws him in. Cause he
• 56:13
  Speaker 2: doesn't even seem like he cares about the fame end
• 56:15
  Speaker 2: of it from the get go where everybody else around
• 56:18
  Speaker 2: him does.
• 56:19
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 56:19
  Speaker 2: So it's like, I don't even know. I think his
• 56:22
  Speaker 2: almost feels more like, well, I don't have any, I'm,
• 56:25
  Speaker 2: I'm alone. And this girl kind of likes me. And I,
• 56:29
  Speaker 2: I guess I'll go out with her. I don't know. That's,
• 56:31
  Speaker 2: I think, the biggest part.
• 56:32
  Speaker 3: Which is what appealed to her, which is what appealed
• 56:34
  Speaker 3: to her character because he wasn't a slobbering fan going,
• 56:37
  Speaker 3: oh my gosh, you're Anna Scott. You want a date? Yeah,
• 56:41
  Speaker 3: he was more like, he thought she was lovely. Yeah.
• 56:45
  Speaker 3: And she says a very telling line about her life
• 56:49
  Speaker 3: when they have finally gotten together and consummated their relationship
• 56:52
  Speaker 3: and gone to bed. She was, the next morning, she
• 56:56
  Speaker 3: was a bit apprehensive about how this was going to
• 56:57
  Speaker 3: go now because she said, she quoted a line from,
• 57:01
  Speaker 3: was it Lana Turner?
• 57:02
  Speaker 6: Rita Hayworth.
• 57:02
  Speaker 3: Rita Hayworth. And the line was, they go to bed
• 57:05
  Speaker 3: with Gilda and wake up with me.
• 57:08
  Speaker 2: I will, that was, again, I was making notes of
• 57:11
  Speaker 2: good stuff. I was like, that line, that moment was good.
• 57:14
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 57:15
  Speaker 2: It, it turns a corner real fast and like her.
• 57:18
  Speaker 3: Because the paparazzi's outside.
• 57:20
  Speaker 2: But immediately blaming him and immediately getting angry at him
• 57:24
  Speaker 2: when like he didn't do it. Like if you want
• 57:26
  Speaker 2: to be angry at the paparazzi or if you found
• 57:28
  Speaker 2: out he.
• 57:28
  Speaker 3: She was angry at his cavalier attitude.
• 57:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 57:31
  Speaker 3: And she was feeling the weight of like, oh my gosh,
• 57:33
  Speaker 3: a scandal. Oh, geez, I can't afford this right now. Yeah, so... Again,
• 57:37
  Speaker 3: two different perspectives. It is. He's a civilian doing his thing,
• 57:41
  Speaker 3: and she's the movie star of the world.
• 57:43
  Speaker 2: And from his angle, it certainly would come out a
• 57:45
  Speaker 2: little better. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He has some sort of
• 57:47
  Speaker 2: weird bragging story that she calls him on.
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: Right, right, right.
• 57:50
  Speaker 2: I will give you that.
• 57:51
  Speaker 3: Even though that wasn't his angle.
• 57:53
  Speaker 2: No.
• 57:54
  Speaker 3: But she finds that out later.
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 57:56
  Speaker 3: You see, when she comes back around with that other
• 57:58
  Speaker 3: great speech she gives, oh, my gosh, in the bookstore, right?
• 58:02
  Speaker 3: Come on now. The romantic in me loved that moment.
• 58:05
  Speaker 3: after she they on again off again on again yeah
• 58:07
  Speaker 3: and they reconnect after the big breakup thing and then
• 58:10
  Speaker 3: she's back making the movie in england he comes to
• 58:12
  Speaker 3: visit her on the set kind of like and she
• 58:14
  Speaker 3: sees him and they and she's like oh there's some
• 58:16
  Speaker 3: things unsaid to hang around and she then and he
• 58:20
  Speaker 3: has always wearing a headset for the sound department and
• 58:22
  Speaker 3: hears her talking about oh that guy over there i
• 58:24
  Speaker 3: don't even know why he's here so she's kind of
• 58:27
  Speaker 3: telling her co-star that about that guy and he, she
• 58:29
  Speaker 3: doesn't know what he's listening. Oh, the confusion, the misunderstandings.
• 58:32
  Speaker 2: I love it.
• 58:33
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 58:33
  Speaker 3: And then, and then, and then she figures, she figures
• 58:36
  Speaker 3: this out and she comes to the bookstore before she
• 58:38
  Speaker 3: leaves and says, okay, okay, okay. I've been bad. This
• 58:42
  Speaker 3: is why you don't have to like her again.
• 58:44
  Speaker 2: No, I yelled at the screen at that point. She's like,
• 58:47
  Speaker 2: I believe it. Actually, she's like, something about my... Yeah,
• 58:51
  Speaker 2: it's like, I've behaved so badly. And I was like, yes,
• 58:54
  Speaker 2: you have. You've been horrible to him. Why would he
• 58:57
  Speaker 2: take you back? Right, right. I know you're a millionaire,
• 59:01
  Speaker 2: but I'm sorry if you've just treated him... And then
• 59:03
  Speaker 2: that window when he's listening on the headphones, I'm like,
• 59:06
  Speaker 2: I feel like that's a window into who she really is.
• 59:10
  Speaker 2: I feel like she sells the story of this guy
• 59:13
  Speaker 2: that she's talking to is a big jerk and it's
• 59:14
  Speaker 2: none of his business. But again, her cavalier attitude at
• 59:18
  Speaker 2: that point, I'm just like, hmm. I don't know. I
• 59:20
  Speaker 2: feel like that's who she is.
• 59:22
  Speaker 3: But that's how she explained it. I don't want that.
• 59:24
  Speaker 3: That guy, he's a gossip. He's like, I don't want
• 59:26
  Speaker 3: to know anything. So she had to put on the
• 59:28
  Speaker 3: front with her co-star to say, oh, that guy, no,
• 59:30
  Speaker 3: he's nothing. Because he would have laughed about it. So
• 59:34
  Speaker 3: I believed her because she has to protect herself and
• 59:36
  Speaker 3: her love.
• 59:38
  Speaker 2: I'm just saying.
• 59:40
  Speaker 3: I'm getting into it, aren't I?
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: I don't actually want to watch the movie. I just
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: want a visual interpretation of Doug.
• 59:45
  Speaker 2: We're all going to act it out right now.
• 59:48
  Speaker 1: No, Doug with a one-man play version.
• 59:51
  Speaker 2: He's certainly better.
• 59:52
  Speaker 3: Equipped for it, sure.
• 59:53
  Speaker 2: We'll get you a Julia wig and you'll get this going.
• 59:57
  Speaker 3: I'm just a girl asking a boy to love her.
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 3: What was her line?
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 6: Just a girl standing in front of a boy asking
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 6: him to love her.
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 2: I know. How could you not love this movie?
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: No, no.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 2: I'm still.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 1: I'm not sold.
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 2: No, it's all right.
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 3: It's all right.
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 2: For the good parts, though, if we're like the... And
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 2: this falls... Again, I feel like most of my issues
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 2: are with the writing, which is not our director. I
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 2: looked up the difference between.
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 8: The two here.
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 3: The writer and the director? Okay.
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was like, did he do both of these?
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 2: But no, it's Richard Mitchell is the director, but... Richard
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 2: Curtis is our writer.
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 4: Okay, okay.
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 2: Who, if you looked into, do you know him?
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 1: He did all the things.
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 6: He did Four Weddings and a Funeral and all the things.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 2: Do you know the more recent? I got to one
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 2: and I'm like, oh, well, we have to bring this
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 2: up with Lucy.
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 1: There's going to be a whole bunch of movies that
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 1: I have not watched.
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, probably. You haven't watched Love Actually. You haven't watched
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 2: Four Weddings and a Funeral. Love Actually is better. I'll
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 2: give you that. It's awesome.
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 1: And that's your next movie.
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 3: We'll talk about it next time.
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 2: And I won't watch that one either. But no, no.
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 2: For you specifically, Lucy, he is the one who wrote
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 2: the screenplay for War Horse.
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 1: War Horse.
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 4: I like War Horse.
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 2: That's a good movie. We've had an epic war horse
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 2: battle on this show.
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 3: Cause I liked it and didn't like it all at
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 3: the same time.
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 3: There were moments. That's the appropriate response.
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 2: See the one I will give him credit for is
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 2: about time was him. And I thought that's, again, that's
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 2: one of those, I feel like he's improving as time
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 2: goes on. Cause that's one of the more recent ones.
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 2: And I feel like he's still got a very light,
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 2: touch to it for something that's about time travel it
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 2: should be huge stakes and really heavy but it still
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 2: plays mostly like a romantic comedy kind of so that
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 2: one i think is actually pretty well put together as
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 2: far as trying to find that balance and not make
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 2: it all about weird time traveling stuff which actually it's
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 2: about as much scientific time travel as somewhere in time
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 2: so If you haven't seen it, that's definitely one for you.
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 3: And it's called what again?
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 2: About Time.
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 3: About Time.
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 2: It's pretty recent.
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 3: I've never even heard this title.
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's definitely... I think you will definitely like that one.
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 2: But this one, as we go... Yeah, I think my
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 2: issue is more with the writing because Mitchell directing... That
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 2: little movement scene as we go through the seasons.
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 3: That was great.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 2: That's an amazing concept. That is really well executed. So
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 2: I'm like, everything about that, I'm giving you credit for
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 2: as a director. So that's a pretty great version of
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 2: like having some sort of basic vision and following through
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 2: so again i'm finding i'm finding good things here about.
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 3: It okay and did you not find hugh grant slightly
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 3: charming at least with his one-liners and his in his
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 3: british again i.
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 2: Feel like even less than normal and i never sold
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 2: on him okay but i feel like and maybe i'm
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 2: blaming the writing again i feel like all of that
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 2: stuff just kind of falls flat for me like to
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 2: me if you if you've got a a not even
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 2: a punchline really, just a weird joke that lands with
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 2: like hounds and horses. You know, it's like that should
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 2: have been much that had whole set up with the,
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 2: him pretending to work for a magazine. should have been
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 2: a pretty wacky, over-the-top situation of him, again, of mistaken
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 2: identity and him trying to cover for it.
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 3: He gets into a press junket and she thought she'd
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 3: be done with the press junket by the time she
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 3: invites him to the hotel.
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 2: But he doesn't know that.
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 3: He gets there, he's sucked into the press junket. And
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 3: what magazine are you with? He looks on the table,
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 3: he's a horse and hound magazine. So he says, horse
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 3: and hound. And so why would Horse and Hound be
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 3: reviewing her current movie?
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 2: Again, I feel like there's potential there to actually be
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 2: really funny, and all of it, I feel like, just
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 2: falls flat.
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 1: I do remember that Miss Scott is also keen to
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 1: talk about her next project, which is shooting later in
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 1: the summer.
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 2: Ah, yes. Excellent. Excellent.
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 4: Any horses in that one? Or hounds, for that matter.
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 2: Our readers are equally intrigued by both species.
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 1: It takes place on a submarine.
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 9: Oh.
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 3: Well, bad luck. But, um.
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 7: If there were horses in it, would you be riding them,
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 7: or would you be getting a stunt horse, double man thing?
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 6: Subtle British humor.
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 3: Subtle British humor, you're right. And so he gets in
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 3: the room with her and then her publicist is listening.
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 3: So he says, so were there any horses in your movie?
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 3: She says, it takes place in outer space.
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 9: Oh.
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 2: See, that's what I'm looking for out of a movie.
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 3: Right, right, right. So there were funny, subtle British humor.
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 2: Get on board, man.
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 1: If you knew Space Horses, I would have watched it.
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 6: I think that maybe part of the problem with Julia
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 6: Roberts is the same problem with Andy McDowell in Four
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 6: Weddings and a Funeral, which is that I think American
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 6: actresses have trouble with his dialogue because it's so British,
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 6: and everybody else in the movie knows exactly what they're doing,
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 6: and Risa Fonz, and everybody's, like, perfect, and all of the, like,
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 6: But then she comes in and there's lines where I'm like, oh,
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 6: that line would have been so better served.
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 3: With the British accent.
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 6: Exactly, with the British accent.
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 3: And the right brain to come.
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 6: So I think that maybe that's part of why she
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 6: wasn't convincing to you, Brian, as a love interest that
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 6: he would find appealing because she was kind of stumbling
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 6: over some of the dialogues.
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 2: Well, and even, but they don't even make good on
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 2: the horse thing. Like, at the end, she's making it. No,
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 2: he does that joke. That's mediocre. But the fact that
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 2: she's making a movie because of, like, he almost inspired
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 2: her to, like, go back to her roots and do
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 2: something theatrical and literature and all of this. So, like,
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 2: he gets on the set, and there's horses there. And
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 2: I'm like, okay, this is where you finish that joke.
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 2: You set it up in the beginning. Never do anything
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 2: with it.
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 6: Because that was the follow-up on the Henry James. They
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 6: were already following up on something, which is that she
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 6: had chosen a project that he had suggested.
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 3: To her because she really... The Henry James.
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 8: Yes.
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 3: Right, right, right.
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 6: Because there were real feelings there.
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 3: See, yeah. Get in touch with your real feelings, Brian.
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 2: My real feelings tell me that.
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 3: Are hateful, is what they are.
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 2: A little, a little bit, yeah. You're not the first
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 2: one to tell me that.
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 6: I will say about the end, I had not seen
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 6: this movie since I saw it originally in theaters in 1999.
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 6: And so I had completely kind of forgotten about it.
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 6: And then in the course of that period of time,
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 6: I saw the now classic Mahogany. And did you notice
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 6: that Mahogany... they kind of stole the whole ending from Mahogany.
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 9: Really?
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 3: I haven't seen Mahogany since forever. Diana Ross.
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 6: Yes, Diana Ross and Billy Dee Williams.
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 2: You're sitting a few tables down for Billy Dee.
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 3: We have the same manager for these traveling shows.
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 6: Oh, fantastic. Well, it's my favorite Billy Dee Williams performance,
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 6: mostly because he has to pretend at some point in
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 6: the movie that Anthony Perkins could actually beat him up,
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 6: which I can't even imagine.
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 3: The level of acting that that required.
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 2: Back in the day, no.
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 6: But in the final scene, and I guess this is
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 6: kind of a Mahogany spoiler, but Billy Dee is at
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 6: a rally and he's talking and then a woman from
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 6: the back and there's a call back and it's Diana
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 6: Ross and she's screaming out a question and she says
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 6: I want my man back and then he thinks that
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 6: she's just a random woman there but it turns out
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 6: she's there to get him back and it's exactly the
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 6: same thing and then the music swells but it's kind
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 6: of the same ending but it works man it so
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 6: works it worked then it works now.
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 3: I could watch Julia smile with that music playing over
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 3: while she and Hugh are looking at each other all
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 3: day I could watch it all day.
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I just kept thinking, you know, people always describe
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 6: her megawatt smile.
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 3: And I was like, that's it.
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 2: That's it.
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 3: That's a megawatt smile. That's a lot.
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 2: It's a lot of teeth. It's a lot of teeth.
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah. Mahogany. Mahogany.
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 2: We had a moment, so we should watch Mahogany. And
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 2: now we gotta watch Mahogany.
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 3: I gotta go review that one again.
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 2: This was my thing, though. Even if I wasn't upset
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 2: with her for getting angry at him when the story
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 2: gets out, which is still a really weird moment.
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 2: But before we get to that, when she... Has gone through,
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 2: she like out of nowhere kisses him, which is still
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 2: a really awkward moment. And again, there's no real chemistry there.
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 2: But okay, we get through this. They start this weird
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 2: little relationship. They have these touching walks through the park
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 2: and all of this. And never did we get to
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 2: a point that she has a boyfriend?
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 9: No.
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 2: And then I thought maybe there was a, oh, I
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 2: thought we were maybe not together. But no, really, she
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 2: just kind of shut up about it. And she did
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 2: have a boyfriend the whole time.
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 2: And that, to me, like, I'm like, how do I
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 2: like this character now? Like, she blatantly lied to you
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 2: for days on end, if not weeks. We don't know
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 2: what this time period is.
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 3: Because she thought this boyfriend was a narcissistic actor boy
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 3: who was too.
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 2: Full of himself. He is. It's Alec Baldwin.
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 3: It was great fun. Great fun.
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 10: But he.
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 3: But I think I could tell, I could read on
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 3: her face that she thought that that was almost done.
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 3: And she's meeting this sweet guy that's outside the narcissistic
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 3: career that we all have. And she's kind of intrigued
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 3: by that and kind of thought, well, what's it like
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 3: to kiss that? I think that's where that came from,
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 3: is what I'm guessing. And it wasn't so bad.
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 2: I just wish they told us all of this.
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 3: I know, I know. But then I think she wanted
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 3: to just have the fantasy of like leaving all the
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 3: Hollywood behind and just having this quiet moment in Notting Hill.
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 3: I think that's what she wanted. And that's why the boyfriend,
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 3: the big famous boyfriend didn't come up. And then when,
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 3: so then she was probably going to go, if she
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 3: had it up to her own schedule, she would probably
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 3: go home Break it off. Gently break up with him
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 3: and then find Hugh Grant again at some way. But unfortunately,
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 3: the boyfriend came and barged into the situation and broke
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 3: up the fantasy.
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 2: And is he as charming as Alec Baldwin?
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 3: Not really.
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 2: He was kind of leaning into it at that point.
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 2: He used to be a leading man. He used to
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 2: be kind of a charming one. But he was already like, no,
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 2: I got something I can play. Let me dig into
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 2: this a little bit. Ask this guy to take the
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 2: trash out.
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 3: He was good casting.
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he definitely comes through.
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 10: Okay.
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 6: And I loved the surprise of Alec Baldwin because I
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 6: forgot Alec Baldwin was in it. And he's not credited
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 6: at all. He's not in the beginning credits. He's not
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 6: in the end credits.
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 2: He's just not there. Snuck him right in.
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 3: I didn't notice that.
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 1: Oh, wow.
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 6: There's some fun ones. A young Misha Barton. That was
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 6: a fun one.
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 3: Where was that?
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 6: She was the co-star that he has to interview in
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 6: his capacity as the horse and hound.
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 3: Oh, is that right?
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 6: 12-year-old Misha Barton.
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 3: Is that right? Yeah.
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 6: And of course, I'm kind of on both of your
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 6: teams because I did like I wanted them to get together.
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 6: But there's part of me that didn't want them to
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 6: get together because there were a lot of red flags
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 6: coming from Anna. And I really liked him because I
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 6: like his like perpetual befuddlement. And I just think he's charming.
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 6: But then there's a moment where Emily Mortimer is there
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 6: all of a sudden. And it's like, oh, wait, you
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 6: could date Emily Mortimer. Like, why are we even talking
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 6: about Julia Roberts? But she's only, you know, she's in
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 6: it for like a minute.
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 3: Was she one of the setups for the dates?
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 6: But she was the perfect one, quote unquote perfect.
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 2: She was the last one in the little montage.
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 3: Right, right, right. And it could have worked, but she
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 3: wasn't Anna Scott. Okay.
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 9: I hear you.
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 2: I hear you. Again, at that point, I feel like
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 2: they had a way better chance than Anna Scott. As
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 2: it unfolds, I guess we're still supposed to believe that they,
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 2: you know, are happily ever after. But even that's not
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 2: normally how these Hollywood things go.
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 6: She married Danny Motor and they have three children and
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 6: they've been together for 15 years.
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 2: Are you sure? Have you checked today's headline?
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 3: No, I haven't checked today's headline. Oh, Julia?
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 3: Well, they're still together, aren't they?
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 3: She and Danny?
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 2: I think they are, actually. But I'm thinking of many,
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 2: many other people that usually it doesn't go. so again
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 2: we want a nice storybook ending I understand but again
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 2: I do I think there's so much potential there I
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 2: think that's why it's more frustrating because it's not that
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 2: it's a that it is a weird cheesy rom-com kind
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 2: of thing because I and then I started thinking I
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 2: was like do I just genuinely dislike that and I'm
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 2: like no and actually even one with her I think
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 2: My Best Friend's Wedding is kind of a great example
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 2: of this and like she's super likable in that like
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 2: you get all of her charm on that. And even,
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think While You Were Sleeping is a
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 2: great example of that. So I think there are really
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 2: good ones out there. This one I'm just so frustrated
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 2: by because I feel like there is something to be,
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 2: you really could kind of delve into this, like the
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 2: fact that she does bring up this, like, what is
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 2: this price of fame? She's given 10 years of this,
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 2: you know, her life to this.
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 2: And she does have her sad story of, you know,
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 2: when everybody else has their boring middle class loser off.
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 2: They're like, which one of us has the worst life ever?
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 3: Right, there's one piece of cake left or brownie left
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 3: and they were all, who's got the saddest story? And
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 3: everyone's going around the table with these like, you know,
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 3: I'm in a wheelchair. I suffer depression or whatever it was.
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 3: And she says, well, I've never, I've been on a
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 3: diet for 30 years. What else?
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 2: And you know, And again, I think you could go
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 2: into that. I think there is a little more to
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 2: that that we don't get. I think we focus so
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 2: much on his side of the story and he doesn't
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 2: really have that interesting life. So we get kind of
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 2: the boring angle of watching him go to the job
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 2: that even he seems not very passionate about. And I
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 2: do like his weird guy that he works with that doesn't, again,
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 2: someone who doesn't really know who she is.
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 3: I love that.
• 1:13:12
  Speaker 2: Misidentifies her as Demi Moore, which that was, again, being
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 2: a movie geek, I do like that they worked in,
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 2: he specifically referenced Ghost. The only reason Pretty Woman didn't
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 2: top that year is because Ghost beat it. Ghost is
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 2: the one that kept them out of the number one
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 2: slot for the year.
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 3: A little insider joke there.
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 2: To me, again, I was like, they're working in a
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 2: little Hollywood insider kind of stuff here. But I think
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 2: there was just so much more they could have done
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 2: with that. What is that weird price of fame that
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 2: she played and the other angle of the perverse hero
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 2: worship that you see all these other people get that
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 2: i don't know i think there's there's so much that
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 2: could be done with all that but i i blame
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 2: the writer.
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 3: Really you're gonna right you'll blame anybody won't you because
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 3: you're no no because you have issues.
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 2: On many on again in many other movies that is
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 2: not the case i think i'm usually defending a lot
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 2: of movies on this show this is just one that
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 2: I had issues with. No, it's all right.
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 3: You're welcome to have them.
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 2: So, I don't know. We get our mad dash to
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 2: the airport, although it's not the airport this time. It's
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 2: a weird press conference. But it's very super cliche, rush
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 2: to the airport kind of a thing.
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 3: She's going to a press conference that announces she'll be
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 3: leaving the country and never coming back.
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 2: That's another one of those that I'm like, okay, for
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 2: something that's trying to tap into real Hollywood stuff, what
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 2: is this press conference? Have you ever seen... You've been
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 2: to Academy Award press conferences. Has any been for a
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 2: random lady that was in a town to shoot a
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 2: movie and is now leaving tomorrow?
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 3: I think it's probably because she was announcing that she
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 3: was going to be taking a sabbatical from the business.
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 3: That was a lot of reporters. That's all I got
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 3: to say. It was.
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 1: It was.
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 3: It was a huge press conference.
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 1: It was.
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 2: No kidding.
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 3: But if she wanted to announce to the world that
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 3: she was going to take some time off, At her level,
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 3: that would be a big deal. That's a news story.
• 1:15:08
  Speaker 2: She kind of did that right before that. I think
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 2: she had that like two years where she really wasn't
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 2: putting stuff out, like that weird hook thing. dip in
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 2: her career before she came back with i think this
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 2: and aaron brockovich were like the next things that kind
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 2: of like but she kind of went through that where
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 2: she did non-stop stuff disappeared for about a year and
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 2: then yeah for a good year or two like she
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 2: didn't put anything else out and i think that that
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 2: again there's there's there is some reality behind all this stuff.
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 3: Funny little trivia bit when she did hook right she
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 3: was a tinkerbell um i was a background pirate in
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 3: pirate town And I got an upgrade because I could
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 3: put my legs behind my head. Just like any job,
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 3: by the way. That'll get you an upgrade in most
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 3: lines of work.
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 1: That's what you look for in a pirate.
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 3: It depends on what you're doing. So I was able
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 3: to do like that. I got paid as a little
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 3: stunt upgrade one day to do my twisty bits on camera.
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 2: Where are you hanging out with Glenn Close?
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 3: No, I didn't. In fact, the day.
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 2: There's the super secret cameo.
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 4: In that movie.
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 3: That was just a great one. Yeah, the day Glenn
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 3: Close was doing her male pirate cameo.
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 2: Years before she would get nominated for an Oscar. Right, right.
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 3: I had no idea. Right, exactly. What was that movie called?
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 2: What is that character's name?
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 3: Somebody's name.
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 2: Some guy's name.
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 3: Was it set in Great Britain?
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 1: Anyway.
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 3: So, no, I wasn't... But I didn't actually meet Glenn personally.
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 2: Or Julia?
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 3: I did. Well, okay, Julia, she was about to get
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 3: married to Kiefer Sutherland, if you remember. That was during
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 3: the filming of Hook. She was supposed to get married
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 3: and then go off and have a honeymoon in Ireland
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 3: and then come back and continue filming. Well, she went
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 3: to Ireland and did the honeymoon by herself because she
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 3: ditched him at the altar, I think, if I'm not crazy.
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 3: I remember how this story went down.
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 2: I think Kiefer had some issues himself at that point.
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, okay.
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 2: And now maybe he's come around. I don't know. I
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 2: think there were some demons there for him, too.
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 3: 1991, that was.
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a long time ago.
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 3: But the day that she came back onto the set
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 3: after returning from this big press hoopla of this not
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 3: getting married after all, She came back, and I saw
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 3: her about to go up onto the ship and talk
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 3: to Steven Spielberg. And so she was taking a deep
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 3: breath like that at the bottom of the gangplank. Is
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 3: that what you call it? To walk up to the ship.
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 3: And so I was standing right in front of her. Yeah,
• 1:17:35
  Speaker 3: I had to get out of her way so she
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 3: could make her way onto the ship.
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 2: And you pushed her into the ocean.
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 3: Oh, funny Julia Roberts story, though. Pushed her into the ocean.
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 3: But here's my funny Julia Roberts story that not many
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 3: people know. She and I have a mutual friend named
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 3: Jillian Bennett who was a stand-up comedian. And Julia Roberts
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 3: and Jillian Bennett knew each other in New York City
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 3: back in the day before she was Julia Roberts. So
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 3: this is even before Mystic Pizza. This is before all that.
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 3: It was just Eric's little sister.
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 6: Before Satisfaction.
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 2: See, now why weren't we talking about Satisfaction? There's one
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 2: I can get behind.
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 3: So I think she had just filmed. She had done Satisfaction.
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 3: I think Mystic Pizza had now been filmed, but it
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 3: wasn't out yet. So I'm at a birthday party. Jillian Bennett,
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 3: my friend Jillian, she lived in a house with roommates.
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 3: One of the roommates was having his 21st birthday. So, Doug,
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 3: can you come over and do something funny for his
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 3: 21st birthday? And then my friend Jillian Bennett, she said, oh, oh,
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 3: can you do like a striptease or something? I'm like,
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 3: oh no, this is.
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 2: Can you put your legs behind your head?
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. While stripping. That's, I mean,
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 3: really what we're looking for. So I thought, oh geez,
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 3: I've been faced with a challenge. I have to do
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 3: this now, right? Now I just say no. But back then...
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 3: I needed people to like me. So I said, oh, gosh, sure,
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 3: I'll come up with an act. So I did. Child,
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 3: I came into this birthday party at this house with
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 3: a boom box, right, with some disco music on it.
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 3: And I was wearing a cowboy hat and boots and
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 3: And a cowboy jean shirt.
• 1:19:10
  Speaker 2: I think this is how you travel everywhere.
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 3: Don't lie. So I came in like, hey, I heard
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 3: there's a birthday boy in here. So I put on
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 3: this grinding music, and I start stripping, and I end
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 3: up turning from cowboy into a geek. I end up
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 3: putting on glasses, and I ended up with nothing but
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 3: boxer shorts on. Anyway, it brought the house down. And
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 3: it turns out that Eric Roberts' little sister was there.
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 3: That's how I was introduced to her. Like, oh, that's
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 3: Eric Roberts' little sister. And I guess her name's Julia.
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 3: So I'm thinking, oh, my gosh, I'm so embarrassed that
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 3: she just saw me do that. So the roommates introduced me. Doug,
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 3: this is Julia. And she was just like, hi. She
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 3: kind of gave me a hesitant sort of a handshake, like,
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 3: do I do that?
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 1: Hello, Doug.
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 3: She was just getting over spinal meningitis, so she wasn't well.
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 3: I'll give her that.
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 2: Otherwise, she would have fallen under your charms, obviously.
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 3: As people do when I'm taking my clothes off. So then, okay,
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 3: but Julia didn't know that I was a friend of
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 3: the household.
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 2: Like you just showed up like that.
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 3: So I'm staying. Now, I've changed back into my regular
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 3: street clothes. I'm at the snack table. I'm having a
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 3: carrot dipped in some ranch dip, right? Julia says to
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 3: my friend Jillian, why is the stripper still here?
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 1: What?
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 12: Right?
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 2: You never asked that question.
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 1: Oh, my gosh.
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 2: Just get out some more ones.
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 3: What are you talking about?
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 1: I just want to know how this isn't on YouTube.
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 2: Well, he's going to recreate it here for us to know.
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 12: Right.
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 3: That was way back in, like, 1980-something.
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 1: There was a time before YouTube?
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 10: Yes, yes.
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 2: Everyone didn't have a camera on them at all times?
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 3: So thank heaven, because that would be out there now.
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 3: So Hook came after that. So when I saw her
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 3: standing there, that would have been my perfect opportunity to say, Julia, hi,
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 3: we met before I was stripping at your friend's party.
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 2: Remember?
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 1: No?
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 3: So I decided to let that moment pass. I did,
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 3: because I thought she doesn't need that after coming back
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 3: from a honeymoon she didn't have. Right? It's not what
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 3: she needs today.
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 1: Or it could have been exactly what she needs.
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 3: Right, or it might have been exactly right.
• 1:21:24
  Speaker 2: Then she'd be like, well, I'm single now. Hey, underwear guy,
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 2: come over here a minute. I see where this is
• 1:21:31
  Speaker 2: really going.
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 3: See, but I was already married to Mrs. Laurie then. Oh,
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 1: Fine.
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 3: Monogamy.
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 1: Whatever.
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 2: That's not how this movie goes. Just because you're with
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 2: somebody doesn't mean you don't go randomly kissing people that
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 2: you like.
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 3: But she and Alec Baldwin were not married. They were
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 3: just like boyfriend, girlfriend.
• 1:21:50
  Speaker 2: To me, that's a commitment.
• 1:21:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it depends. I don't know.
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 2: I don't know. Now, you brought up back in the
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 2: day when there were no cameras. That is one of
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 2: the things I think is, once again, it's scary how...
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 2: massively things have changed since 99 when the photos of
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 2: her come out and it is like rocks her world.
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 2: Like it is career ending because it's the cover of
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 2: every paper. And I'm like, look at what happens on
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 2: a yearly basis. There's a new crop of photos that
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 2: come out of poor actresses that have put stuff on
• 1:22:23
  Speaker 2: their phone. And now everyone in the free world has
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 2: a version of it.
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 3: And now it's the papers and Twitter and Instagram.
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 2: And to the point that people don't even acknowledge it anymore.
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 2: Like it's so constant that that stuff happens that like,
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 2: it's not even a news story now. Like the first
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 2: time it kind of was. Two, three times later when
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 2: it kept happening, they're just like, eh, whatever.
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 3: Not quite as scandalous anymore.
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Again, it's almost a quaint little world we used
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 2: to live in back in 1999. I know. When, yeah,
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 2: people would be upset by scantily gladiator operatives on the
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 2: cover of every paper.
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 3: Of all the papers.
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 2: Of all the papers.
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 3: What are these papers you all keep speaking of?
• 1:23:00
  Speaker 2: That's going to be in the papers tomorrow. It's really
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 2: thin trees.
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 1: I don't understand this concept of papers. I don't know
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 1: what you're talking about.
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 2: You can't see me moving my arm at home, but
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 2: I'm pressing... individual copies right now so yeah it's ask
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 2: your grandparents kids it's it's a scary.
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 3: Don't know what a newspaper is so yeah i.
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 2: Think those those moments were kind of way more interesting
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 2: of like just how disturbingly things have changed just since 1999.
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 4: I know.
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 2: So i what a world what a world i probably
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 2: do actually but Again, plot holes. Why does the restaurant
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 2: not come up again for, like, 90 minutes? Like, he
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 2: mentions it at the very beginning about his friend owning
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 2: a restaurant.
• 1:23:44
  Speaker 3: Oh.
• 1:23:44
  Speaker 2: And then, like, it comes back at the end. I'm like,
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 2: was there, like, pages cut out of the screenplay?
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 1: I can actually tell you why.
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 6: Because I did read the Wikipedia trivia.
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 6: And apparently the first cut of this film was 3.5 hours.
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 3: Whew.
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 2: I know. Man, I'm glad they cut that. I love
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 2: that version. I love that movie. They'll just bring it
• 1:24:03
  Speaker 2: directly to you. It's the Doug exclusive version.
• 1:24:05
  Speaker 6: Yes, yes.
• 1:24:05
  Speaker 2: You're the only one asking for it.
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 3: Dougie's cut.
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 10: Yes.
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 6: And part of what was also cut out, I guess,
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 6: was when they're on the rooftop. I guess she starts
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 6: swearing like a sailor and they had to pull that
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 6: back to get the PG-13.
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Will you skate by on that 13? Yeah.
• 1:24:18
  Speaker 3: Oh, okay.
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 2: Well, that was the other thing that I thought, like
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 2: the whole... again we have the very silly roommate character
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 2: that he hangs out which i loved his character eventually
• 1:24:28
  Speaker 2: he comes around but in that same thing with his
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 2: very silly sister and like all of a sudden they're
• 1:24:33
  Speaker 2: together and i'm like did we miss some cuts here
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 2: because they were like at some point they were never
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 2: even in the same scene together at one point they
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 2: run into the store at the same time and i'm
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 2: like okay i guess she's dating him now because we
• 1:24:45
  Speaker 2: saw her break up with that guy in the little
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 2: city time moving montage and then like suddenly they're getting
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 2: married i was just like whoa like yeah she.
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 3: Wants to end up that's right that's right she wants
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 3: to end up with with the welshman the the room
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 3: the roommate and that.
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 2: Would have been a nice reveal that's kind of an
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 2: interesting moment but i'm like.
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 3: We had to back it up yeah yeah so well
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 3: now that we know it was a three and a
• 1:25:06
  Speaker 3: half hour movie wow this is all they had to
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 3: cut something out right.
• 1:25:10
  Speaker 6: Because it's over two hours as it is.
• 1:25:12
  Speaker 2: It's likely over two.
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 3: Oh, see. But I love that. And when we talked
• 1:25:15
  Speaker 3: about Meet Joe Black, that's a three-hour movie. See, okay.
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 3: That's a lengthy one.
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 2: That's so weird, I give it points.
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 3: If you're singing to me, I don't care how long
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 3: it is. Okay? Okay?
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 4: And this movie sang to me.
• 1:25:28
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 2: I've made many horrible points about it. So what are
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 2: your favorite moments? You've done a few of them, but
• 1:25:34
  Speaker 2: defend it as best you can.
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 3: No, no. I've touched on them all.
• 1:25:38
  Speaker 2: Tell us why you love it.
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 3: I love the difference between everyday life that happens that
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 3: most audiences can relate to and this movie star lifestyle.
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 3: And when those two worlds collide, how do you work
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 3: that out? How do you build relations? And the hard
• 1:25:56
  Speaker 3: part is, see... My best friends in the world that
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 3: I have now are people that I've known for 30 years, right?
• 1:26:02
  Speaker 3: Because I know why they're with me. People I meet today,
• 1:26:06
  Speaker 3: there's oftentimes an angle with wanting to get to know me.
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 3: It's like, you know, can you get this script to
• 1:26:11
  Speaker 3: Guillermo del Toro for me? Right? That happens a lot.
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry.
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I know.
• 1:26:16
  Speaker 2: I've been working really hard on that script.
• 1:26:18
  Speaker 3: Right. Or someone will, you know, befriend me on social
• 1:26:23
  Speaker 3: media and be really nice and chatty back and forth
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 3: and then all of a sudden it's like So, yeah,
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 3: I sure would like to be an actor one day.
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 3: Can you make a call for me? No, I'm an
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 3: actor for hire myself. I can't. And so ulterior motives
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 3: come out. And so it's nice to see an on-screen
• 1:26:41
  Speaker 3: relationship where two people from those two different worlds are
• 1:26:45
  Speaker 3: getting together without ulterior motive, without someone wanting something from
• 1:26:48
  Speaker 3: the other that way. So that's all. That's all I'm saying.
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 2: Again, I do like that angle of Hugh Grant. He
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 2: is never in it for the wrong reasons. Never. He
• 1:26:59
  Speaker 2: makes what he eventually decides is a bad call midway in,
• 1:27:03
  Speaker 2: but again, I almost stand with him on that one.
• 1:27:05
  Speaker 2: When he's kind of like, can I just say no
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 2: to your offer?
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, when she comes back and says that lovely speech.
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the big speech, and I'm a beautiful woman, and
• 1:27:16
  Speaker 2: I want to start a relationship with you.
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 3: And he's just like, But he had been dissed twice
• 1:27:22
  Speaker 3: by then. And so he's thinking, I don't want to
• 1:27:23
  Speaker 3: get dissed again.
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 2: That was one of the moments when I was like, okay,
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 2: now I'm on board.
• 1:27:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:27:28
  Speaker 2: Way to do it a little unconventional and then it
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 2: gets super conventional. Yeah. What are you going to do?
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 3: What are you going to do?
• 1:27:36
  Speaker 8: I know.
• 1:27:37
  Speaker 12: I know.
• 1:27:39
  Speaker 3: Now, Hugh Grant's roommate, do we know what that actor's
• 1:27:42
  Speaker 3: name was?
• 1:27:42
  Speaker 6: I never know how to pronounce it. I call him
• 1:27:44
  Speaker 6: Rhys Afons. I don't know if that's how you say it.
• 1:27:46
  Speaker 6: It's R-Y-R-H-Y-S-I-F-A-N-S.
• 1:27:50
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 1:27:50
  Speaker 6: I'm not good.
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 7: With my Welsh.
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 3: Rhys Afons.
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 3: Let's call him that.
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 6: Don't call him that in person.
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 1: No, no, no.
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 2: I can't. Lucy says it's Rhys Afons. Rhys Afons.
• 1:27:59
  Speaker 3: Let's get him on the phone right now. I'll listen
• 1:28:02
  Speaker 3: to someone else say hi to him, and then I'll
• 1:28:04
  Speaker 3: follow suit. But early in the movie, to establish the
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 3: character and the relationship between the roommates, when Reese is
• 1:28:16
  Speaker 3: asking Hugh Grant's opinion on what T-shirt should I wear
• 1:28:19
  Speaker 3: for tonight's date that he has, and I got a date,
• 1:28:22
  Speaker 3: so I got the right T-shirt. So he parades these
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 3: different T-shirts with different things written on them. I got
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 3: a big guffaw laugh out of me. The last one
• 1:28:30
  Speaker 3: said– on the front it said.
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 6: Something about how beautiful you are.
• 1:28:34
  Speaker 2: You are so beautiful.
• 1:28:34
  Speaker 3: You're so beautiful.
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 6: You're the most beautiful girl in the world.
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah. And Hugh Grant looks at it and says, well,
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 3: that's the shirt. Oh, great. He turns around on the
• 1:28:41
  Speaker 3: back and says, fancy a fur? Right? So... So it's like, oh,
• 1:28:45
  Speaker 3: dear sakes, and he's walking away like, oh, no, that's
• 1:28:47
  Speaker 3: the shirt he's going to wear, and I can't stop him.
• 1:28:50
  Speaker 2: That was one of the first scenes, and that was
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 2: promising because that I felt very connected to because if
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 2: I'm having a very fancy outing, I will pick my
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 2: best T-shirt, and I will have to, as Misty, you know,
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 2: we have the same T-shirts half the time. I have
• 1:29:04
  Speaker 2: to decide. What is the most appropriate t-shirt should I wear?
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 2: You know, am I wearing an alien t-shirt today? What's
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 2: going to send out the right message? Do I need
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 2: it to be?
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 1: This is a family-friendly event.
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, do I need to wear my Coco t-shirt? Like,
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 2: I have that.
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 1: And I have pro-fanity involved because I have several of those.
• 1:29:20
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, ah, no.
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 3: I'm from a different world because I pick out my tie.
• 1:29:24
  Speaker 3: You're picking out your best t-shirt.
• 1:29:26
  Speaker 2: You're very well dressed. But again, to me, I fell
• 1:29:29
  Speaker 2: in line with the weirdo roommate. So I was just like,
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 2: this moment seems genuine. I would get somebody's opinion on
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 2: which is the best t-shirt I should wear on my
• 1:29:37
  Speaker 2: big fancy date for this evening. So yeah, that's pretty
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 2: accurate for me. So that part I like.
• 1:29:43
  Speaker 3: Bless your little heart.
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 4: Precious.
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 2: From that point, I veer quite far away from that roommate.
• 1:29:49
  Speaker 2: He's not a fun character. I mean, he's funny, but
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 2: I don't want to room with him.
• 1:29:53
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 1:29:54
  Speaker 1: From the trailer that I watched, he did seem like
• 1:29:56
  Speaker 1: the best part.
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, right. But you like ridiculous things.
• 1:30:01
  Speaker 3: I do kind of.
• 1:30:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:30:02
  Speaker 3: And he was kind of like unshowered and unkempt and
• 1:30:06
  Speaker 3: an embarrassment. I was also.
• 1:30:10
  Speaker 2: And like you, Lex parading around in his underwear in
• 1:30:13
  Speaker 2: front of an entire group of photographers.
• 1:30:15
  Speaker 1: No shame.
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 6: And how did that not become a huge story that
• 1:30:19
  Speaker 6: she was there.
• 1:30:19
  Speaker 2: With two guys? I said that too. And how did
• 1:30:22
  Speaker 2: they specifically connect it to the one that was dressed
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 2: that came out? You saw the guy, right? Maybe he's
• 1:30:27
  Speaker 2: their butler. Why did you jump to the conclusion that
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 2: it was the first guy that came out, not the
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 2: one that came out in his underwear?
• 1:30:35
  Speaker 3: And posed with his arms in the air.
• 1:30:36
  Speaker 2: And posed with everyone.
• 1:30:37
  Speaker 3: I loved it. I loved it. Oh.
• 1:30:41
  Speaker 2: Oh, so have we addressed all the finer points on this?
• 1:30:45
  Speaker 2: I've hit as many.
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 3: They may not need a whole lot more to address.
• 1:30:48
  Speaker 1: The finer, the lower.
• 1:30:52
  Speaker 2: I've made my statement as best I can. But there
• 1:30:54
  Speaker 2: are very good moments in there mixed in. And I
• 1:30:57
  Speaker 2: think an interesting story that's maybe still waiting to be.
• 1:31:00
  Speaker 6: Told yeah or maybe it's out there we just need
• 1:31:02
  Speaker 6: to review the director's cut.
• 1:31:03
  Speaker 3: Next time right the three and a half hour version
• 1:31:05
  Speaker 3: it's been long.
• 1:31:06
  Speaker 1: Enough why have they not remade this yet.
• 1:31:09
  Speaker 2: A remake of not we've already seen them do it
• 1:31:11
  Speaker 2: from with mahogany so now it's like when's the new
• 1:31:13
  Speaker 2: reboot version so wait did they do a remake of
• 1:31:16
  Speaker 2: mahogany oh no.
• 1:31:20
  Speaker 3: It's been borrowed from so okay right right what do
• 1:31:22
  Speaker 3: you i don't know i don't know i don't know
• 1:31:25
  Speaker 3: chum All right.
• 1:31:26
  Speaker 2: Then I guess we're done with that.
• 1:31:28
  Speaker 4: With that.
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 2: I mean, to round things out, I mean, as just
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 2: an important award show as the Oscars, we were sitting
• 1:31:37
  Speaker 2: there handing out the Foilers last weekend. The Foilers. The
• 1:31:40
  Speaker 2: Foilers are our own awards. Instead of being fancy and gold,
• 1:31:45
  Speaker 2: it's made out of aluminum foil. Foil. Because that seems about.
• 1:31:48
  Speaker 3: It fits the budget better.
• 1:31:50
  Speaker 2: That's how it seems like a fitting tribute to our show. Sure.
• 1:31:53
  Speaker 2: And we serve a lot of pork so you can
• 1:31:55
  Speaker 2: take leftovers. It's dual duty. You can use your award
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 2: to make use of it.
• 1:31:59
  Speaker 3: Grab the pork, make it into a duck, whatever.
• 1:32:02
  Speaker 2: So we have a best monster category. And I'm obviously
• 1:32:06
  Speaker 2: pulling for you. But I got to be fair. There's
• 1:32:10
  Speaker 2: a lot of votes coming in for other. I won't
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 2: say which Skarsgård character this was. But there was a
• 1:32:15
  Speaker 2: lot of Pennywise coming in.
• 1:32:17
  Speaker 3: Of course there would be.
• 1:32:18
  Speaker 2: So it did make me want to say, what is
• 1:32:20
  Speaker 2: the situation when you are kind of a top-tier monster man?
• 1:32:25
  Speaker 2: I mean, how cutthroat is that into the business there?
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 3: No, it's not.
• 1:32:30
  Speaker 2: You are okay with other people taking a... I mean,
• 1:32:32
  Speaker 2: Pennywise is a pretty high-end role.
• 1:32:35
  Speaker 3: And that's a great character to take it, run with it, yeah.
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 2: Could you have done something interesting with it? You've been
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 2: a clown before somewhere. You were a juggling clown, were
• 1:32:43
  Speaker 2: you not?
• 1:32:44
  Speaker 3: That was Batman Returns. I was thin clown.
• 1:32:47
  Speaker 1: That's the most amazing thing I've ever.
• 1:32:50
  Speaker 2: Juggling?
• 1:32:50
  Speaker 1: Juggling is my favorite thing.
• 1:32:51
  Speaker 2: Okay, wait.
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 3: But I didn't juggle in the movie.
• 1:32:55
  Speaker 1: You mentioned juggling and it threw me off.
• 1:32:57
  Speaker 2: You got all excited.
• 1:32:58
  Speaker 3: If you give me three oranges, I can't do it. Yeah, sorry.
• 1:33:01
  Speaker 2: That's as bad as I am. I can't juggle either.
• 1:33:03
  Speaker 3: Don't let me down.
• 1:33:06
  Speaker 2: So, I mean, are you okay with that stuff when
• 1:33:08
  Speaker 2: you see, like, are you driven so much of your
• 1:33:12
  Speaker 2: own goals that you're, like, gunning for, you know, you
• 1:33:14
  Speaker 2: see a new property coming up, like, Nosferatu's getting remade.
• 1:33:19
  Speaker 2: How do I get myself in that role? I mean,
• 1:33:22
  Speaker 2: are you that specific about the kind of stuff that
• 1:33:24
  Speaker 2: you're drawn to?
• 1:33:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah. The thing is, I'm 57 now, you know,
• 1:33:31
  Speaker 3: and I've been acting for 31.
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 2: I'm not buying it. You guys at home can't see, perhaps.
• 1:33:35
  Speaker 2: He's upwards of 29.
• 1:33:37
  Speaker 3: You bless your soul. But having been an actor for
• 1:33:40
  Speaker 3: 31 years now, I feel like I've done every creature
• 1:33:42
  Speaker 3: I want to do. The one that was remaining for
• 1:33:44
  Speaker 3: me was Count Orlok and Nosferatu. And I got to
• 1:33:47
  Speaker 3: play him. We did an indie version of that. It's
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 3: public domain, so anybody can make one. So there was
• 1:33:53
  Speaker 3: one Nosferatu that was announced in the trades that was
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 3: not ours. Ours is done. It's in the can now,
• 1:33:59
  Speaker 3: and it should be coming out later in this year, 2018.
• 1:34:01
  Speaker 2: I've seen some photos. There's a guy in makeup. He
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 2: looks pretty good.
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 10: That's right.
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 2: And he looks good.
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 1: It's a great, yes.
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 3: And our Nosferatu is going to combine old movie and
• 1:34:09
  Speaker 3: new movie together. So there's a green screen shot element
• 1:34:12
  Speaker 3: to every shot of our movie, and that green screen
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 3: is going to be filled in with bits from the
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 3: old movie from 1922.
• 1:34:19
  Speaker 2: Excellent.
• 1:34:20
  Speaker 3: Yes. So I got to play in the environment of
• 1:34:23
  Speaker 3: the old movie that Max Schreck got to play in.
• 1:34:26
  Speaker 3: So I'm very tickled about that. And that was the
• 1:34:28
  Speaker 3: last creature makeup role that I really had on my
• 1:34:30
  Speaker 3: bucket list. And now I'm leaning more toward the rom-com.
• 1:34:34
  Speaker 3: That's why it's not a deal.
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 1: Are there any rom-coms in the works?
• 1:34:38
  Speaker 2: I want to do a rom-com. Let's get Julie on
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 2: the phone right now. Come on. Let's put this together.
• 1:34:42
  Speaker 3: I did a lovely little indie film a few years
• 1:34:44
  Speaker 3: ago called My Name is Jerry. It's a middle-aged white
• 1:34:47
  Speaker 3: guy coming to his midlife crisis. It's a coming-of-middle-age story.
• 1:34:52
  Speaker 2: And I loved it.
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 3: I was done with makeup in 10 minutes. Did a
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 3: little fluffing of the hair. Put on a tie. Wear
• 1:34:59
  Speaker 3: a suit. Carry a briefcase. We're on film.
• 1:35:01
  Speaker 2: There's not four pounds of latex? What are you talking about?
• 1:35:03
  Speaker 3: And then I did a Hallmark Channel movie a couple
• 1:35:06
  Speaker 3: years ago, and that's when we talked last year.
• 1:35:07
  Speaker 2: I remember, yeah, we were talking. You were the chauffeur.
• 1:35:10
  Speaker 3: I was a chauffeur slash butler for Raquel Welsh in
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 3: a movie called The Ultimate Legacy. And for that, I
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 3: got to wear a three-piece suit, bow tie, watch chain. Again,
• 1:35:19
  Speaker 3: 10 minutes, a little dusting on the face, a little
• 1:35:21
  Speaker 3: done in the hair, boom, done. And I loved it.
• 1:35:24
  Speaker 3: It was a happy story. A pretty little story with
• 1:35:28
  Speaker 3: a pretty little cast in a pretty little town with
• 1:35:30
  Speaker 3: a pretty little happy ending.
• 1:35:31
  Speaker 7: I loved it.
• 1:35:32
  Speaker 3: I loved it.
• 1:35:33
  Speaker 2: Are you drawn towards those stories or are you really
• 1:35:35
  Speaker 2: just sick of the makeup?
• 1:35:36
  Speaker 3: It might be a combo. I don't know. But I
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 3: do like happy stories and feel goods. I do. And
• 1:35:44
  Speaker 3: you don't have to invest too much to watch it.
• 1:35:46
  Speaker 3: It's like you can keep it on its background noise
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 3: if you want.
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 2: So yeah, I like channel a lot i do now
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 2: that the industry's changed so much that people can get
• 1:35:54
  Speaker 2: their own stuff going is it something you want to
• 1:35:57
  Speaker 2: like do your own version of these kind of projects or.
• 1:36:01
  Speaker 3: I don't know it's too much it would be it'd
• 1:36:02
  Speaker 3: be nice if someone else would produce and direct and
• 1:36:04
  Speaker 3: do all that writing and i'll just be an actor
• 1:36:07
  Speaker 3: for hire still yeah i'm i'm at a point where
• 1:36:10
  Speaker 3: i don't deal with stress well and so and trying
• 1:36:12
  Speaker 3: to produce your own movie is very.
• 1:36:14
  Speaker 2: Stressful oh yeah That's where all the work is that
• 1:36:16
  Speaker 2: nobody sees. And you really get no reward unless you
• 1:36:20
  Speaker 2: win the Academy Award. There's no real pats on the
• 1:36:23
  Speaker 2: back for you. It either then goes to the actor
• 1:36:26
  Speaker 2: or the director and the producer just get out of
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 2: the way.
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. So I'm at the point now where like
• 1:36:32
  Speaker 3: if what's left on my bucket list is to do
• 1:36:34
  Speaker 3: something for the Hallmark Channel again. I would love to
• 1:36:36
  Speaker 3: be in a Christmas movie where I get to wear
• 1:36:37
  Speaker 3: a funny sweater with reindeer on it and swirl a
• 1:36:40
  Speaker 3: hot chocolate while I give some great advice to my
• 1:36:42
  Speaker 3: grown daughter. Boom.
• 1:36:44
  Speaker 1: Right?
• 1:36:45
  Speaker 4: Do you see it?
• 1:36:45
  Speaker 2: I think we need to start writing this. I think
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 2: we can make this happen.
• 1:36:49
  Speaker 3: And again, that's far outside the genre I've been playing in.
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 3: I kind of want.
• 1:36:53
  Speaker 2: An amphibian man doing that. Just swirling his hot chocolate.
• 1:36:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:36:59
  Speaker 2: You don't think Guillermo sounds bored with this?
• 1:37:01
  Speaker 3: No, you may not. That's not the right story for
• 1:37:03
  Speaker 3: his fish man.
• 1:37:04
  Speaker 9: To be in.
• 1:37:04
  Speaker 2: What if some fingers fall off of somebody else?
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 3: He might be on board.
• 1:37:08
  Speaker 2: You're winning him over when you start adding that.
• 1:37:10
  Speaker 3: Or maybe if I'm a dad in a Christmas sweater
• 1:37:11
  Speaker 3: with my eyes in the wrong place. Maybe that's, you know.
• 1:37:15
  Speaker 3: He does like.
• 1:37:17
  Speaker 2: To design weird shapes onto you.
• 1:37:19
  Speaker 3: I've got eyeballs in my shoulder blades.
• 1:37:21
  Speaker 4: Something.
• 1:37:22
  Speaker 3: They're never where they belong.
• 1:37:23
  Speaker 2: Doesn't seem out of character for you or Guillermo.
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 3: I know. Bless his heart.
• 1:37:27
  Speaker 2: So do you have anything else to tell people that's
• 1:37:30
  Speaker 2: coming out?
• 1:37:30
  Speaker 3: What's coming? Anything else to plug? So later in 2018,
• 1:37:33
  Speaker 3: I'll be looking for Nosferatu. I played the title character,
• 1:37:36
  Speaker 3: Count Orlok, and I loved it. It's really going to
• 1:37:38
  Speaker 3: be a beautiful piece of art. Also, The Shape of
• 1:37:41
  Speaker 3: Water is, by the time this podcast comes out, it
• 1:37:44
  Speaker 3: will be already on Blu-ray and DVD. It will be
• 1:37:47
  Speaker 3: released March 13th.

  Speaker 2: which is to me, that was October.
• 1:38:46
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 1:38:46
  Speaker 2: I mean, for a monster guy like that, you can

  Speaker 2: get no more impressive than being on the cover boy,
• 1:38:52
  Speaker 2: if you were.
• 1:38:52
  Speaker 3: No, Famous Monsters magazine, that's a staple from my childhood.
• 1:38:56
  Speaker 3: And so to be on the cover with artist renderings

  Speaker 2: I'm on board with that.
• 1:40:25
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 1:40:25
  Speaker 2: That's how we do this. We wrap it up with
• 1:40:28
  Speaker 2: warm thoughts.
• 1:40:28
  Speaker 3: With huggles and headpats.
• 1:40:29
  Speaker 4: That's right.
• 1:40:30
  Speaker 2: That's what we're going to go do right now.
• 1:40:31
  Speaker 1: Right now.
• 1:40:32
  Speaker 2: That's right.
• 1:40:47
  Speaker 8: I'll watch a rom-com with him now.
• 1:40:49
  Speaker 2: Will you now? I will. All by yourself? Yeah.
• 1:40:53
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 1:40:53
  Speaker 2: What?
• 1:40:55
  Speaker 3: Might give me another angle.
• 1:40:56
  Speaker 8: Hey, I need to watch some stuff like that.
• 1:40:58
  Speaker 3: Every once in a while.
• 1:40:59
  Speaker 1: In touch with your sensitive side?
• 1:41:01
  Speaker 2: I like it because it mixes things up. It does.
• 1:41:03
  Speaker 8: It mixes things up and it makes you think.
• 1:41:05
  Speaker 1: Again, I don't like none of that mess.
• 1:41:07
  Speaker 8: I was kind of upset that I didn't watch it
• 1:41:08
  Speaker 8: because now I'm like, you know, there's some things that
• 1:41:11
  Speaker 8: maybe I need to give certain movies a chance.
• 1:41:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I try to. Are we going home and watching
• 1:41:16
  Speaker 1: this movie?
• 1:41:16
  Speaker 2: No.
• 1:41:17
  Speaker 1: That's what I thought.
• 1:41:18
  Speaker 2: I mean, I usually sit around watching Happy Death Day,
• 1:41:20
  Speaker 2: so if somebody wants to mix things up and give
• 1:41:23
  Speaker 2: me a rom-com to watch, that's fine.
• 1:41:24
  Speaker 8: Or you're usually watching.
• 1:41:27
  Speaker 8: Forensic files.
• 1:41:30
  Speaker 3: It did work out just fine.
• 1:41:32
  Speaker 2: You got all your Chuck Norrises taken care of.
• 1:41:35
  Speaker 8: Yes, we did.
• 1:41:36
  Speaker 2: We saw Doug, and so it's all good.
• 1:41:38
  Speaker 1: Huggles were had.
• 1:41:39
  Speaker 2: Hugged by Doug Jones. That's all you needed at this convention.
• 1:41:43
  Speaker 1: You got hugged.
• 1:41:43
  Speaker 3: Didn't you get a hug? I got a weird forehead.
• 1:41:47
  Speaker 8: Scratchy thing.
• 1:41:49
  Speaker 1: And you got a hug when you bought the autograph
• 1:41:51
  Speaker 1: for your dog.
• 1:41:51
  Speaker 8: I'm good with that.
• 1:41:52
  Speaker 2: And there was some face touching. He touched a lot
• 1:41:55
  Speaker 2: of faces, so I think we're all covered.
• 1:41:57
  Speaker 1: I just realized how many hands he's probably touched all day.
• 1:42:01
  Speaker 2: He might have some hand sanitizer. We'll find out. Depending
• 1:42:06
  Speaker 2: on what sort of disease you get.
• 1:42:08
  Speaker 1: I imagine some inner cleanliness just keeps him forever sanitary.
• 1:42:13
  Speaker 2: He's just that good. He's just, his goodness from inside
• 1:42:17
  Speaker 2: fights off all evil, including germs. He's delightful. So, otherwise
• 1:42:22
  Speaker 2: that about does it. We will return next time, same
• 1:42:24
  Speaker 2: geek feed. Thanks for listening.
• 1:42:26
  Speaker 13: Bye.
• 1:42:27
  Speaker 11: He may be the face I can't forget. A trace
• 1:42:33
  Speaker 11: of pleasure or regret.
• 1:42:36
  Speaker 14: Maybe my treasure or the price I have to pay.
• 1:42:43
