Hi, miss.
0:29
Come to push the button.
0:31
Ooh, that's a good pick.
0:35
Should I do a dramatic intro?
0:36
All right.
0:37
All right.
0:37
We're back in 1981 and a group of friends raced their high powered cars up and down,
0:42
a dangerous and deadly mountain road, known as Mulholland Drive to see who can
0:46
claim the title of King of the Mountain.
0:49
Yeah.
0:52
Wait, I already saw this Skull, silver Dream racer.
0:54
Guys, if you haven't seen Silver Dream Racer, if you've seen this movie, you've
0:58
seen Silver Dream Racer, just motorcycles.

So this is Tanya's recommendation.
1:03
Ooh.
1:04
And I'm so happy that we are literally picking up exactly
1:08
where we left off the last time.
1:09
We've got big hair and leather jackets and music montages and everything that the
1:14
last Chase was missing is in this movie.
1:17
Yeah.
1:17
So much in this movie, I'm like, oh, this had to been made like 1974 or right.
1:21
Something.

1:51
I'm sorry, Brad, you all don't have your pictures on.

1:53
I believe that's called Quid pro quo.
1:57

So we only have six ho so we'll be able to get all of our funny lines in.
2:01

2:12
Okay.
2:12
Okay.
2:12
I had not seen it.
2:13
I found it.
2:14
Well, yeah, we, uh, we found out some interesting stuff about this movie.
2:17
Looking into it though.
2:18
Oh boy.
2:18
Before we get too deep into this first time, watch for all of us.
2:21
I don't know about you guys.
2:22
I'm a little thirsty.
2:23
I'm sober.
2:24
I need to fix that.
2:25
Yeah, right.
2:26
Well, we have from Sockeye Brewing in Boise, Idaho.

2:36
Woo-hoo.
2:37
12 ounce canned has a beautiful salmon on the front.
2:40
Yeah.
2:41
I believe it was sockeye salmon.
2:42
That was, I mean it sure as hell.
2:43
Better me.
2:44
Sockeye brewing my dog.
2:45
That was a chum or luskin king.
2:49
Oh, well, weird.
2:50
Uh, my top.
2:52
Top.
2:53
Nice.
2:53
Oh look.
2:53
My top.
2:55
My top.
2:55
Everybody take your tops off.
2:57
Woo.
2:57
You don't wanna see that?
2:58
Mm-hmm.
3:00
Oh man.
3:01
Happy beer.
3:01
Very pine forward.
3:02
Yeah.
3:03
Very, uh, piny and, uh, little mossy to it.
3:06
Like a little earthy.
3:07
Little earthy.
3:07
Yeah.
3:08
And almost has a little bit of Metallica on the back end.
3:10
Not like it tastes rusty, but like, got like an irony.
3:13
Shitness to it must be all the blood from the salmons.
3:15
Maybe, maybe a hint of Mercury.
3:17
Who knows?
3:17
Yummy.
3:18
Mm-hmm.
3:18
It's actually very good.
3:19
It's an aggressive beer though.
3:20
Yeah.
3:21
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
3:21
Definitely.
3:22
Like after about two of these, you'd be like, all right, I
3:24
gotta switch up to something.
3:25
More water like.
3:26
Any guys drinking anything?
3:27
I was gonna say, speaking of water, three guesses with the rest of
3:30
the GTM crew is drinking tonight.
3:31
But in honor of recent summer vacation adventures, I've got a Negroni.
3:36
This stuff has got the same proof as gasoline and it's fantastic.
3:40
Google translating what Negroni translates to?
3:44
No, mostly compar.
3:46
Oh, thank God.
3:46
I was close.
3:48
I was way off.
3:51
Everybody else is drinking water fresh from their Well, if I remember correctly.
3:55
That is correct.
3:56
Dan gets it from the crick.
3:57
350 feet below your house or whatever.
3:59
There you go.
4:00
Hi.
4:00
My.
4:01
I remember about Mike.
4:03
Yeah.
4:03
And all his Bronco twos.
4:07
That was a below the waist hit right there.
4:08
That's not going.
4:11
So, Steve, before you introduce the movie and the cast and whatever, I
4:15
wanna just talk about the opening.
4:17
Just the opening for a moment.
4:19
Okay.
4:19
The music and the score, it sort of sets the tone for this film and the cast,
4:23
the characters that are part of it.
4:25
Did anybody else get the Rockford files vibe from the opening of this movie?
4:29
There's a little bit of that in here.
4:32
All I remember from the opening, the first two scenes, I guess, him
4:36
driving up and down the road and then like the, the Camaro trying
4:39
to race him, and he's like, no dog.
4:42
The songs just did not fit with what I was watching on the screen.
4:46
Yeah.
4:46
But it felt like you all mentioned like this movie was clearly made in
4:49
the seventies and it clearly was not the opening music Rockford files.
4:53
Well, I never watched Rockford files, so you know, I'm out there.
4:56
But for those first two like big scenes, I'm like, this does not fit at all.
5:01
I watched this movie on a layover in Detroit 'cause I had that much time
5:05
to kill and it was free on Voodoo.
5:06
I related to it because I've driven Mulholland Drive and I
5:10
did it with a buddy of mine.
5:11
So shout out to Paul Willam Osky, who lives in la.
5:13
We did it in his Porsche, also Silver, like the whoa movie.
5:16
Whoa, whoa.
5:17
Yeah, yeah.
5:18
I mean, calm down.
5:19
So immediately I was relating to this.
5:21
I was like, oh, this is cool, this is cool.
5:23
But I talk about that opening because that's where they're
5:26
introducing the characters to you.
5:27
It's that got that late seventies, early eighties, we're rolling the
5:30
credits while the guy's driving down the road, just like the Rockford files.
5:34
So I was sort of like, this is the moment where Harry Hamlin.
5:38
Dennis Hopper, and you know, and Steve, you'll carry the list of the rest
5:41
of the stars that are in this movie.
5:43
But I was just like, what am I in for?
5:45
Am I in for a treat or am I in for disappointment?
5:47
Well, the disappointment for me was like, during that whole thing,
5:50
you, you always got the narration stuff going, the helicopter shots.
5:52
I don't know if they just have it on like some sort of spiral thing
5:56
going like, I was getting car sick.
5:58
Just watching.
5:59
Yeah.
6:00
It was like circling, circling, you know, windy roads.
6:03
Yeah.
6:03
And kind of keep along with that.
6:04
It's like.
6:06
But yes, 1980 one's King of the Mountain from Director Noel Sek, who see Steve.
6:12
Oh, I'm glad you asked.
6:13
Over 40 credits, including, um, best Friends Las Vegas, lady Dreamer,
6:19
not to be confused with Silver Tree Racer, we might talk about later.
6:21
What, uh, this.
6:22
And then tv, movies like Roman Holiday, summer Fantasy Without a Kiss.
6:27
Goodbye.
6:27
Born Too Soon.
6:29
And guys, what I've instantly added to our, uh, watch list tornado 1996.
6:35
Ooh.
6:35
Basically it looks like the TV Ripoff of Twister.
6:38
Yeah.
6:39
But, but it stars Bruce Campbell and Ernie Hudson.
6:41
Oh, man.
6:42
You said Bruce Campbell.
6:43
I'm in, yeah.
6:43
Right.
6:44
Hudson.
6:44
Sold.
6:45
And then he also followed that up with What kind of mother are you?
6:48
Right.
6:48
And three episodes of Charmed.
6:51
Oh, but the writing for this, oh my gosh.
6:53
This is based on an article by David Barry.
6:56
Ooh.
6:56
Just like the Fast and Furious universe, just like the Fast and Furious universe.
7:00
That's what I was hoping for going to this movie.
7:01
That was my expectation.
7:03
A fast and Furious or higher, I mean, the entire script is in two loose leaf pages.
7:08
I mean, there's not a lot of dialogue.
7:10
Yeah, there's not a lot.
7:11
But yeah, basically the David Berry who wrote the article did that.
7:14
He's the editor of 2000 Five's Transamerica Killer.
7:17
AKA Switch Killer.
7:19
Okay.
7:19
Ooh, it's only credits on IMDB.
7:21
Wonder if it's even the same person, honestly.
7:23
Oh, but gosh, the writer, Lee Chapman.
7:27
Who's she?
7:28
Who's she?
7:28
Whoa.
7:29
Lady writer.
7:30
Lady writer.
7:31
I know.
7:32
For this movie, that's actually kind of surprising.
7:34
I mean, it is.
7:35
Uh, yeah.
7:35

7:37

Wife spoilers.
12:15
And also guys, Cassandra Peterson is in this movie as the neighbor.
12:19
Who's she?
12:20
Steve.
12:21
Anybody know this one?
12:21
Cassandra Peterson?
12:22
No, but she's the one that shows up in the 90, right?
12:25
Oh, yeah, yeah.
12:26
The night.
12:26
And you're like, Hey, stop knocking at the dog.
12:28
Whatever.
12:28
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
12:29
The, the real sexy looking one.
12:30
That's Elvira Mistress of the Dark.
12:32
No.
12:33
Yes.
12:34
What.
12:35
Yeah.
12:35
By the way, sight without the wig, I'd still get it.
12:38
Oh, to this day,
12:41
I know she's like 72.
12:43
I'm all right.
12:44
Steve would be fine with that.
12:45
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
12:45
That's cool.
12:46
Wow.
12:46
I would've never guessed that from seeing her in the movie.
12:48
Holy smokes.
12:49
And that's the way she wanted it.
12:51
Yeah.
12:51
Like she wanted to be able to walk around and not be ogled.
12:53
Now that I think about it in that scene, she posed like Elvira with her leg
12:57
out with the split dress and mm-hmm.
12:59
The mighty or whatever.
13:00
Then now it makes more sense because I was like, this is so random.
13:03
We'll get to it.
13:04
And then, uh, we also have William Foresite in this movie as Big Tom.
13:08

13:31
Yeah.
13:31
That's the Seymour Castle.
13:33
Barry Tanner wrote the music.
13:34
Wasn't Barry the friend?
13:35
No.
13:35
No.
13:36
Buddy wrote the music.
13:37
Oh, buddy.
13:38
Oh, okay.
13:39
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
13:40
Okay, so the three guys are Steve, buddy and Roger.
13:43
Right?
13:43
Those those were the The trio.
13:45
Yes.
13:45
And two of 'em look exactly the same except for one is Frow than the other.
13:49
Yeah.
13:50
They all have perms.
13:51
Yeah, well of course, of course.
13:52
Because it's 1981, everybody has pers I thought Roger was Jerry Seinfeld.
13:57
Yes.
13:57
Yes.
13:58
He's the Jerry Seinfeld looking guy.
13:59
Yeah, you're right.
14:00
Yeah.
14:00
We we were calling him, uh, seventies Adam Driver.
14:03
Yes.
14:04
Oh yeah.
14:04
Yeah, hundred percent.
14:05
Steve was calling him seventies Adam Driver.
14:07
I feel like this guy had way too much charisma to be Adam Driver Scott fired.
14:11
It was a duchovny.
14:11
What are we talking?
14:12
Well, okay.
14:13
Knowing Harry Hamlin, I kept calling him night rider 'cause
14:16
didn't he look like a ripoff?
14:17
Hasselhoff?
14:17
Oh yeah.
14:18
Yeah.
14:18
He definitely looked like hasselhoff off Temu dollar story.
14:22
Hasselhoff.
14:22
Yeah.
14:23
Yeah.
14:23
And the last one I wanna point out friend of the podcast,
14:26
Anthony Delonis as gang member.
14:28
Yeah.
14:29
Uh, we think he was one of the four guys, you know, when they
14:33
steal their car at the beginning.
14:35
Oh yeah.
14:35
Like tossing the keys back and forth in front of the police station.
14:39
Uhhuh.
14:39
Yeah.
14:39
That they just got bailed out if, yeah.
14:41
Yeah, we'll look about that.
14:42
Same.
14:42
But, uh, I think he was one of them.
14:44
Oh, wow.
14:44
Okay.
14:45
Again, Stacey Peterson, friend of the podcast, you might know him from
14:47
Masters of the Universe as Blade, a Master Swordsman and Whip Master and
14:51
Horse Rider choreographed and trained like every amazing sword and whip scene
14:56
you've ever watched in the last 40 years.
14:58
Oh, wow.
14:59
Yeah.
14:59
He's like taught all the, uh, cat women how to use the whips and whatnot.
15:03
Yeah, he's amazing.
15:04
Wow.
15:04
That's awesome.
15:04
Yeah.
15:04
We all gotta start somewhere.
15:05
1980 one's King of the Mountain.
15:08
We watched this guy on Tubi.
15:10
Did you guys uh, watch it all on Voodoo or Tubi?
15:12
Voodoo?
15:12
It was free this month with ads.
15:14
Ooh, free on Tubi two with ads.
15:16
And, uh, Fandango at home, whatever that is.
15:19
Well, voodoo is Fandango now, but yeah.
15:21
Oh, is it?
15:21
Oh shit.
15:21
Okay.
15:22
There we go.
15:22
That makes sense.
15:23
But yeah, so yeah, as we mentioned before, we started off with some dizzying
15:26
helicopter shots of Mulholland Drive and uh, we get some narration like,
15:29
oh yeah, Mulholland Drive 23 miles from end and it's the only place I
15:34
felt safe and all the shit for sure.
15:36
I thought for a second this was gonna start out as like
15:38
a zombie apocalypse movie.
15:40
'cause that's all we've been watching for the podcast this year.
15:42
That's great.
15:43
You got into town and everybody was still there and I'm like, the fuck is
15:46
this, the population's still alive.
15:48
Did they drop the bomb yet?
15:49
No.
15:49
So what I thought was when Lee Majors crossed into California, much can land
15:56
at the end of last Chase Free California.
15:59
This is free California now.
16:00
This is part two of the last Chase picks up where the other one left off.
16:04
Perfect.
16:04
That makes sense because the police force isn't exactly
16:07
the, the wisest bit of people.
16:10
This is like a, a few deputies in a small town kind of operations.
16:14
Local police force trying to handle shit like this.
16:17
It's like Keystone cops.
16:18
You think we should mess with them tonight?
16:20
Yeah.
16:20
Let's go get 'em.
16:21
10 minutes of another bad helicopter scene.
16:24
By the way, how was he able to hear them talking to him?
16:29
Why he turned his lights off?
16:30
Yeah.
16:31
Oh, uh, the helicopters have like a speaker on it.
16:33
Oh, loudspeakers.
16:34
Yeah.
16:34
But yeah, but he's too busy cranking up Renegade by Sticks.
16:38
Yeah, that's right.
16:40
Is up.
16:40
He finally found me, which is a great song.
16:43
Like that's the song you should be listening to while
16:45
you're evading the police.
16:46
Yeah.
16:46
The most badass song of 1981.
16:49
Definitely not 1976, like Shut up.
16:53
They moved on to Mr. Roboto at this point.
16:55
All right, I'll blast it tomorrow out.
16:57
Running the Cops for you, babe.
16:59
Steelers fan.
17:00
Anyway,
17:03
so this is the race.
17:04
That Brad mentioned between the Trans Am the yellow one and the 3 56
17:09
Outlaw that Harry Hamlin's driving.
17:11
Steve is driving in this opening sequence and he gets arrested.
17:14
But while all this is going down, we get our first glimpse of Dennis Hopper.
17:18
Tell me he isn't being a complete creeper.
17:21
Oh dude, he's Dennis Hopper.
17:23
Isn't that how he is?
17:24
Wait, wait.
17:25
Was it Dennis Hopper or Tommy Chong?
17:27
I couldn't tell.
17:29
Oh, well, fun fact, only one of those gentlemen is banned
17:34
from the country of Australia.
17:37
It's not Tommy Chong.
17:38
I would've put my money on both of them being banned from Australia,
17:42
banned for behaving badly while filming a movie in Australia
17:46
that all tracks for both of them.
17:47
Uhhuh.
17:49
Yeah.
17:50
So have that opening raise.
17:51
They get arrested or whatever.
17:52
They have to get the $200 to bail 'em out or whatever.
17:55
This, this is where they go out to their car and there's another
17:58
car parked, I guess, too close for them to pull out or whatever.
18:01
The friend buddy, he's like, Hey man, could you just back your car up?
18:04
Oh yeah, let me get my keys.
18:05
Oh, they start playing.
18:06
Keep away like their 12 year olds or something.
18:08
And then this is when Steve Hero of our movie, who has already been to jail for,
18:12
you know, living life a quarter mile at a time though 23 miles at a stretch.
18:16
And as buddy points out.
18:18
Three times in three months.
18:19
He's on a first name basis with the cops there in la right?
18:22
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
18:23
So tells the guy to jump in and like roll up the windows.
18:26
Yeah.
18:26
And then hot wires it and they drive off and I'm instantly the friend, I'm like,
18:29
well, you just left your car there, so.
18:32
Alright.
18:32
I wanna ask Dan, what did he hot wire that car with?
18:36
Because it looked like he took a piece of chewing gum wrapper and
18:39
then shoved it up in the dashboard.
18:41
Yes, I have actually seen that in other movies where they take, I guess they use
18:45
the chewing gum wrapper to hot wire cars.
18:48
I don't know.
18:49
Is that how you do it, man?
18:50
Man.
18:50
Dan in theory would work if it's the older style switches where the wires are screwed
18:54
into the back of the switch assembly and use the gum wrapper to jumper it.
18:57
The problem is as soon as you remove it, all that does is send the
18:59
signal out for a starter to spin.
19:01
It doesn't turn the power on for the ignition, so it would crank, but it
19:04
technically wouldn't start in real life.
19:07
Ah.
19:07
But it's a Mopar product, not a Chevy.
19:09
So does that make a difference?
19:10
It does not.
19:11
Okay.
19:12
Was it a roadrunner or was it a charger?
19:14
I was trying to figure it out.
19:15
I swear it was a Dukes of hazard car.
19:17
Like it was like an orange charger.
19:19
Let me take a look and see.
19:20
Oh, he's got the database.
19:21
Don't forget.
19:22
Oh shit.
19:22
Oh, that's right.
19:23
There we go.
19:23
I wanna say it was a Plymouth because of the silver plating
19:26
on the lights in the back.
19:27
You get a really weird glimpse of it.
19:29
To Steve's point, the silhouette is definitely of a charger, but it's like,
19:33
was it a Plymouth or was it a Dodge?
19:34
So the car in front of the, uh, police station was a 1970 Dodge Super Bee.
19:38
Oh, even better.
19:39
Even better.
19:40
That's a nice rare, but yeah, basically they, uh, pull off their,
19:43
the stolen car to the studio to further incriminate more people.
19:46
Mm-hmm.
19:47
Uh, in their grand theft auto.
19:48
And then we cut to a lipsync session.
19:50
She was not lip syncing.
19:52
I wanted to know was she actually singing or not?
19:55
Yes.
19:55
The credits said she was singing.
19:57
So whether she was lip syncing in the scene or not.
20:00
Okay.
20:01
The first 20 seconds, or though they were way off, like I don't know if
20:04
it was just wasn't synced up or what, whether the scene was real or not.
20:08
Her credits say she was singing the song.
20:10
To Steve's point, I think whenever they panned to Roger.
20:13
He was trying to sing the lyrics, like silently sing a different song.
20:18
A hundred percent.
20:19
Uh, see, he was not even at the same concert.
20:21
He was just singing something completely different when it was showing her singing.
20:24
At first it was really rough and then it kind of synced up.
20:26
So I was like, okay, I can kind of see it.
20:28
But I don't know, I just assumed it was like an Ashley Simpson thing.
20:31
Can we talk about the song, the whole damn song?
20:34
Exactly.
20:34
The entire song Against All Odds.
20:38
The whole damn song.
20:39
No, it it, it, it was a pretty catchy little song for 1977.
20:43
Don't say the lyrics.
20:44
I don't know what she wants out of this song.
20:46
Yeah.
20:47
Does she wanna be a one night stand?
20:49
Does she want it to be more than a one night stand?
20:51
She wants to be a dangerous stranger.
20:52
Exactly.
20:53
Stranger danger.
20:54
But she's coming.
20:55
I bet she is.
20:56
She's coming back or whatever, whatever the line was.
20:59
Oh, she's coming.
20:59
Yeah.
21:00
Looking at Steve will do that.
21:01
Wow.
21:02
The problem I had with the four and a half minutes that this took, because
21:05
she sung the entire song, was every time she looked at somebody, she kept
21:09
looking like more distraught because she kept looking at Steve, right?
21:13
Like she was getting creeped out.
21:14
Steve's just creeper eye in her.
21:17
It was cringey.
21:17
And then after the song they're like, Hey Steve, meet Tina.
21:20
And they're like, all in.
21:22
I guess just that intense physical attraction of a, a beautiful
21:25
stranger you just stumbled upon.
21:26
They're like hanging out.
21:28
They're at the studio, smoking and staring and drinking, and it's.
21:31
Singing, and I thought it was gonna turn into Caligula throughout the whole movie.
21:36
There was a lot of substance abuse.
21:38
I just wanna say that.
21:39
What?
21:40
Right.
21:40
Sex and rock and roll.
21:41
It was the era.
21:42
Yeah.
21:43
I I, I guess this was the eighties, man.
21:45
This was hairbands the seventies, it was the downward curve, but there was still
21:50
sex, drugs, and rock and roll, I guess.
21:53
Yeah.
21:53
This was shot in the late sixties, right?
21:54
That's what we're talking about.
21:56
1948. Yeah.
21:58
Before AIDS was invented also, doesn't somebody have a fiance?
22:02
Oh, we'll get to that.
22:03
Don't you worry.
22:04
Yeah, we'll get to that.
22:04
And I never, never speak of that again.
22:06
You know?
22:07
Okay.
22:08
So he doesn't have his car and he's got a bummer ride.
22:11
So to your point, they get really chummy really fast.
22:14
And Tina, which is Jackie from Too Close for comfort, whatever her real
22:18
name is, Deborah decides to drive him home in Colombo's, eo, hold on.
22:22
Okay.
22:23
I'm glad you went there because I almost turned the freaking movie off.
22:28
I was like, I'm not watching this.
22:29
I'm not doing this.
22:30
It's not happening because as fans of our show know, when the Citro and DS is
22:35
involved, it's like, I could burn the air.
22:37
I hate those things so bad.
22:39
So if I was in his shoes, I would've dumped her ass immediately.
22:43
Oh, you drive a Ciro and I'm gonna walk.
22:45
But Eric, did you see that rack?
22:46
I'm not getting in that car.
22:48
It's not happening.
22:49
The rack on top of the car or her rack?
22:51
Yeah.
22:51
Yeah.
22:51
Either one.
22:52
Yeah.
22:52
Yeah.
22:53
Yes.
22:54
If you had said no, you would've missed the jack in the box.
22:57
Yeah.
22:59
Good old Jack Daniel's in that glove compartment.
23:01
Jack in the glove box.
23:04
Again, substance abuse, all over the place, drinking, driving, moving.
23:07
No problem.
23:08
Yep.
23:08
And I do like that she drives them to her place.
23:10
Right.
23:11
Like instantly.
23:11
I'm like, all right, good for you, girl.
23:13
Yeah.
23:13
And there's like nothing on the walls, there's no pictures, no nothing.
23:17
It's always is like you, uh, you just move in.
23:19
No, you move out.
23:21
No, this is just how I live.
23:23
You know?
23:23
Where cereal kill people.
23:25
Here help me lay down this, uh, tarp.
23:27
And, uh, do you like Huey Lewis in the news?
23:30
Yeah.
23:30
What, what was, what was her line?
23:32
It was, she said, I'm waiting for my furniture.
23:34
And he said, oh, when are you gonna get it?
23:35
And she said, well, my furniture's waiting for my money.
23:39
Oh yeah.
23:39
Oh yeah.
23:40
Classy.
23:40
So then's 6:00 AM and everybody's starting to sober up.
23:44
Remember like, oh yeah, shit, I'm supposed to be at work in 20 minutes.
23:47
And then Steve comes back to the studio, I guess do his victory lap.
23:51
And this is where we're introduced to his girlfriend, Iris.
23:54
Oh, I'm sorry, fiancee Iris.
23:56
Little Blanc Hick.
23:57
We're only gonna see in this scene Uhhuh Uhhuh could have been
24:01
completely cut out from the film.
24:03
Yeah.
24:03
And he's playing, you know, Atari video games as is tradition at the time.
24:07
It's just one of those things like, yeah, he's sitting there playing and talking
24:11
about like, Hey, so yeah, you, you guys got a date set, blah, blah, blah.
24:14
He is like, yes.
24:15
Something like that.
24:16
I don't know.
24:16
We're probably gonna move in together anyway.
24:18
Cut to some reckless driving by Dennis Hopper, Uhhuh and Steve's like, so Dennis
24:22
Hopper's gonna kill all of them, right?
24:24
Right.
24:24
Serial killer.
24:26
Yes.
24:26
It's like, go.
24:27
But we find out, not only is Dennis Hopper, Al, he's a mechanic, but
24:31
so is uh, Steve and Grizzly Adams and I. Guess big bomb this time.
24:35
I did not know they were mechanics.
24:37
Yeah, I thought they all just hung out at this shop doing shop things.
24:42
Yeah.
24:42
Out front it was like pro performance mechanics or something like that too.
24:46
It very easily could have been grant touring Motorsport or something like that.
24:49
So it's like, oh yeah, this is a garage where, you know, these
24:52
guys fix their vehicles for races.
24:53
They work on Porsches except for the one guy that has a Chevy.
24:57
Yeah.
24:58
Well, you know, you know expensive it is to rent that
24:59
many Porsches for a film shoot.
25:01
He's the new guy.
25:02
Did you see the sign in the background behind the Corvette?
25:05
Like when it was in the shop?
25:06
It says like the small, fast and expensive repair shop or something like that.
25:10
It was like a big poster behind the car.
25:12
I thought it was really kind of ironic, huh?
25:14
This is where there's a scene where the other guy, maybe it's Big Tom
25:18
or whatever the guy's name is, that we can't identify who's pushing that
25:21
nine 11 from behind the race car.
25:23
And Dennis Hopper's just standing there talking to him and smoking a cigarette,
25:27
walking alongside him, making the old man do all the work and he is just
25:31
huffing and trying to push that car into the shop and all this kinda thing.
25:34
I wrote down this line as I do, 'cause I take copious notes and he goes, you know
25:38
what's worse than a car that won't run?
25:40
Holding up a dead body?
25:42
Yeah.
25:42
And you're like, what?
25:45
That's some Dennis Hopper improv right there.
25:47
I guarantee it.
25:48
I thought before that he said, you know what's worse than a car that won't
25:51
run is pushing a car that won't run.
25:53
But then he says, holding up a dead body.
25:54
Yeah.
25:55
And then holding up a dead body.
25:56
Yeah.
25:56
Right after that.
25:57
Yeah.
25:58
The pile of goo that used to be your friend, he's like, starts going
26:01
to like a Rambo rant or something.
26:03
Well, the bandana didn't help either.
26:05
Nothing is over.
26:06
Never Tommy Chong.
26:07
Nothing is over, man.
26:08
But then he is like, oh, hey Steve.
26:10
Some uh, some chick came by looking for you.
26:12
Yeah.
26:13
What'd you tell her?
26:14
Told her you got a small dick.
26:16
Like, yeah, that's a, that's a coworker brand.
26:18
That sounds right.
26:19
Yeah.
26:19
Yeah.
26:19
That checks out.
26:20
It's like, thanks, bro.
26:21
The dialogue was horrendous.
26:23
Yeah, absolutely.
26:24
I feel like half of it might have been improv, just kinda like trying to shoot
26:27
the shit or whatever, but then they're like, oh wait, these guys can't improv.
26:31
Just act like you guys have been working together for years.
26:34
What's working man?
26:35
You gotta, we gotta leave it in though.
26:37
We gotta make it a full 90 minutes.
26:38
20 takes and that was the best one.
26:41
And it was about this time I, I was like, okay.
26:43
Kind of unlikeable lead character.
26:45
Yeah.
26:46
Cheating around.
26:47
Has a job as a mechanic, you know, a bike, whatever this is
26:50
silver Dream racer, isn't it?
26:53
I wonder if this is gonna have a similar ending, spoilers.
26:55
It kind of does.
26:56
Mm Oh you guys.
26:58
Silver Dream racer.
26:59
You ever like just get so frustrated with the movie you like
27:02
you're trying to call it Bluff?
27:03
Like, Hey, like if this movie had any balls, it would do this, but it doesn't.
27:07
I was doing that during, so I was heckling this movie and
27:10
it's like everybody in this is.
27:11
Been dead for years.
27:12
Nobody cares.
27:13
You hear that?
27:14
Harry Hamlin, he's still alive.
27:15
Silver Dream racer.
27:16
Called My Bluff.
27:17
And now I cannot heckle terrible movies like this because they
27:20
just might call my Bluff Theater.
27:23
So yeah, that night Steve's driving with Tina.
27:25
I don't know, GI Giving Exposition or whatever exposition darling.
27:29
It has to go somewhere, right?
27:30
And he is like, you gotta ride the edge if you want to win and blah, blah blah.
27:34
And I'm just like Canyon inside and out.
27:36
I'm only free when I'm on the canyon.
27:38
By the way, you met Cal earlier, right?
27:40
That guy that said a small dick.
27:42
Yeah, he bought it like 15 years ago and they had to completely rebuild
27:45
him and now he's too scared to ride.
27:48
Fierce.
27:48
Catch you.
27:49
I'm, I'm picturing Cal's like the $6 million man or something
27:52
like being pieced together.
27:53
We made him better, faster, stronger, higher.
27:56
He's the six Budweiser man.
27:57
Steve, even as a car guy, I was throwing up a little bit in the
28:01
back of my throat this entire time.
28:04
I was like, this is so bad.
28:06
Yeah, this is so cringey.
28:08
However.
28:09
Credit where credit is due.
28:10
I didn't take any issue with the sound effects with the Porsche.
28:14
It was actually correct.
28:15
Oh, okay.
28:16
Oh, thank God.
28:16
That was gonna be my next question.
28:17
Oh, thank you.
28:18
Thank you.
28:18
I'm glad they matched up.
28:19
I took issue with other cars though, but not with the Porsche.
28:22
It's all good.
28:22
Mount Mandan is our, is our resident dragster.
28:25
Is that how you feel when you race for pink slips?
28:27
Is it just like that rush that makes it worth living or are
28:31
you more like a practical?
28:33
I've never raced for pink slip, so I can't really give.
28:35
Ta Tanya, are you a pinking?
28:36
Slipper?
28:37
No.
28:37
You ever throw on those ping slippers?
28:40
I was gonna say, Steve, aren't you the one who uh, ended up with a car
28:44
that you had to take the front seat out of to drive to help out a friend?
28:47
Well, yeah, but racing sounds like the plot to Police Academy too.
28:52
We're not the ones living at the edge, so we have no frame of reference.
28:55
Right.
28:55
To personify with the lead character of this movie then.
28:58
Right.
28:58
Brad has some drag racing experience ever race for, oh, Brad.
29:00
Oh my god.
29:00
Brad.
29:01
Race for Pinks.
29:01
Brad, I've never raced for Pinks List, but I have raced for money a hundred bucks.
29:05
That and more.
29:06
It's always exciting until you have to hand over the money you just lost.
29:12
I was gonna say, is it like what Clarkson says?
29:14
Does it give you the fizz?
29:16
Yeah.
29:16
Yeah.
29:17
That's what it does.
29:17
Well, Brad, if it's any consolation, whoever won that money from
29:20
you, just put it right back into their car immediately after.
29:23
After a thousand percent.
29:24
No, they put it into the next person's car.
29:26
Oh.
29:29
So yeah.
29:29
So yeah, they're driving along and then, uh, that's right.
29:31
His buddy that like pulled along and was like, Hey, you wanna a race?
29:35
Yeah.
29:35
Winter takes the girl.
29:36
And I'm expecting Tina to be like, what the fuck are you talking about?
29:40
But no, she's like, yeah, we gets the girl.
29:42
What?
29:43
Then he starts howling like Burges Meredith did in the last movie.
29:46
And you're like, what the hell is happening here?
29:48
I expect him to be racing.
29:49
And he is like, oh, that's right baby.
29:51
Just like old times.
29:53
Oh yeah.
29:54
I'm just gonna slide it in real quick.
29:56
What Burgess please.
29:57
Oh.
30:00
But yeah, they race and then, uh, they get hot dogs at that, uh, train car di
30:04
whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
30:05
Wait, wait.
30:06
Before we'd slip into the hot dog, he turns to her and he goes, hit that drop.
30:11
He goes, you feel that vibration?
30:13
Where is this going?
30:14
This is like danger in a manifold.
30:15
Yeah.
30:16
His muffler fell off.
30:17
He's like, you feel that?
30:18
What?
30:19
Whoa.
30:19
The whole car runs over its own buffer.
30:22
It was really random.
30:23
It does come back later as we come to find out.
30:26
It was, it had no point to the story, but it was just like we had to add that
30:29
in, like it really mattered at all.
30:31
Again, maybe some ad-libbing there, but I just thought it was
30:33
funny and she's like, no, I don't know what you're talking about.
30:36
Just keep driving me.
30:38
And then they had that diner, they're getting hot dogs or whatever because
30:41
it was all about his journey into realizing he doesn't need to be
30:44
the king of the mountain anymore.
30:46
Is that what this movie's about?
30:47
But he wasn't the king yet.
30:48
I mean, we find out the third person in the trio, Roger the roommates or whatever.
30:53
He was the driver too.
30:54
But he doesn't do it anymore.
30:55
'cause I don't know, maybe he's the smart one.
30:57
He is the producer.
30:58
Yeah.
30:58
Yeah.
30:58
He's a music producer of his.
31:00
Friends.
31:01
But yeah, we get Steve talking about, oh yeah, I could drive that course
31:03
blindfolded and I'm waiting for, oh God, is this gonna be the finale?
31:06
Mm-hmm.
31:07
He's gonna have to drive it blind.
31:08
Like, I don't know, Dennis Hopper throw salt in his eyes or something.
31:11
Ah.
31:13
I feel that tone, that whole diner scene was cringey, felt forced.
31:17
The acting was just, it was bad.
31:19
Yeah.
31:19
I'll say it.
31:19
Just about every scene in this movie is kind of cringey.
31:22
'cause they're not great actors.
31:26
You know what I mean?
31:27
I mean, de Dennis Hopper's, Dennis Hopper, you know what you're getting with him.
31:29
But like Harry Hamlet, Steve Buddy, and Roger.
31:32
It's kind of just like Tom, Dick and Harry, right?
31:35
You're like, whatever.
31:35
Tina's kind, meh.
31:37
She's not like really a character, it seems like.
31:40
Just kind of there.
31:41
Yeah.
31:41
What about, uh, Iris, and where is she the rest of the movie?
31:44
Maybe she's serving the hotdog, I assume she's going back to high school, right.
31:48
God, would that be outta place in this movie?
31:51
Not really, no.
31:52
And after the diner scene, the following day is when he drives back up?
31:55
Mm-hmm.
31:55
Walked that corner where he felt the vibration or whatever.
31:57
He's looking for his muffler.
31:59
Yeah.
32:00
In all honestly, it was like a lot of times we go to tracks, do a
32:02
track, walk you out there and you look for the little stuff that you
32:05
don't necessarily feel in the car.
32:06
So he was trying to see something different.
32:07
'cause something felt different.
32:08
So it made sense for me when he went out to do that.
32:11
At the moment in the scene, I'm like, what the hell is he talking about?
32:13
A vibration.
32:14
Yeah.
32:14
Yeah.
32:15
So I'm with you there.
32:16
Having done many track walks myself, I immediately identified
32:19
with that and everybody else is going, what the hell is he doing?
32:21
Why is he squatting down and looking the asphalt and all that kinda stuff.
32:24
For me as a track guy, I got that.
32:26
To your point, it was completely out of sequence with the movie.
32:30
Like again, another scene that you could have just cut out.
32:32
You wouldn't have lost anything.
32:33
You wouldn't have gained anything by leaving it in either.
32:36
So it is what it is.
32:37
But I identified with it.
32:38
I see that.
32:39
I think it does on though, because how that's around the turn where
32:43
he decides he's letting No.
32:44
Yeah.
32:44
Yeah.
32:45
We'll get to that.
32:45
Don't spoil it.
32:46
Don't spoil it.
32:46
Yeah.
32:47
My whole thing with that whole scene where he was walking that road or whatever, is
32:50
like, does nobody use mole hull and drive?
32:52
Nope.
32:52
Because he's out there for like a solid three minutes, no cuts, whatever.
32:55
And I'm like, okay, well obviously they got the street shut down the whole night
32:58
when they're doing the races and stuff.
33:00
I'm like, nobody's getting home through Mulholland Drive.
33:03
High atop the mall home and view shelf like nobody uses that road.
33:06
Have you been on it?
33:07
Oh yeah.
33:08
I mean, it's sort of the road to nowhere.
33:09
It is a canyon road, the road to my mansion, friend.
33:12
To that end, how many cars should be on that road at the end of the day?
33:15
Right.
33:16
Not too, too many.
33:17
I mean, I mean it's like early morning, like maybe, I'm assuming it's like the
33:19
shortcut to get to work for some people.
33:21
Like, you know, avoiding the five or the 4 0 5 or whatever, two 10.
33:25
There was that Lincoln that came by and sort of honked at him as he was
33:28
squatted down looking at the road.
33:30
So somebody was there.
33:31
Oh one?
33:31
Yeah.
33:31
Okay.
33:32
Well yeah, go back to Cal the garage.
33:34
It's like talking with Steve or whatever and uh, he is like,
33:36
Hey, I felt something last night.
33:38
Like, yeah, I'll tell you what you felt.
33:39
You felt fear.
33:40
It's that fear creeping up in you, man, your car's like a
33:43
runaway knife and the thrill.
33:46
It's a thrill maker, man.
33:48
Okay.
33:49
Okay.
33:49
This was the beginning of some of the most nonsensical dialogue from Dennis Hopper.
33:54
The rest of the movie, it just sets the tone for every time
33:57
he's in scene and I'm just like, oh, did they just let him loose?
34:00
They let him off the leash and does whatever he wants.
34:02
It seemed like he didn't have a script through the whole movie in my life, right?
34:05
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
34:06
He is Dennis Hopper.
34:07
He must have been high because I was like, dialogue makes no sense whatsoever.
34:11
It's completely non-sequitur.
34:13
It's like what?
34:13
I mean it's legit.
34:14
He probably was fucked up.
34:15
'cause he is drinking beers and drinking whiskey simultaneously, like
34:18
chasing the, the whiskey with beer.
34:19
So, well, I mean, he's on the job so he, he gotta say semi sober
34:24
anyway, so I always try and then like, I dunno, somebody says like,
34:27
watch out for him and I swear they said, fucking your ass or whatever.
34:30
Or did I, there's some random stuff thrown into the dialogue for sure.
34:35
Yeah.
34:35
'cause then it was like rated pg, but I swear it was like, you
34:37
know, you gotta watch out for him.
34:39
Fucking your ass ridiculous.
34:41
So then I wrote down sandwiches and music time.
34:43
That's what comes next.
34:44
Yeah.
34:45
Oh God.
34:46
So yeah, we get to the apartment where the, the Holy Trinity live
34:49
lives, you know, Steve Buddy and, uh, Roger This the cast of Seinfeld.
34:54
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
34:56
George, Jerry and Kramer.
34:58
Yeah.
34:58
Except Jerry's balls deep in Julia Louise Dreyfus while, uh, while George and
35:03
Cosmo are, uh, making giant sandwiches and like teasing each other with them.
35:08
Oh, these guys are in love.
35:09
Yeah.
35:10
I, I was waiting for that to be the hookup at the end.
35:12
Honestly.
35:12
Like, like I just can't quit you, Roger.
35:15
You can have all of my sandwich.
35:17
It's so weird.
35:19
Screechy.
35:20
And then, oh yeah, this is where Izzy pointed out, is that a
35:22
nipple pillow on their couch?
35:24
It is Pillow.
35:24
Yes it is.
35:26
Yes, it's, and there was a couple mannequin off on the side earlier too.
35:29
Yep.
35:29
This so reminds me of how I lived my early years of the military.
35:33
Like almost no furniture, just a beer cooler there with beer in it regularly.
35:37
Sandwich meats.
35:37
Hey, you have the giant construction spool is like a table Uhhuh,
35:41
couple milk crates as seats.
35:43
Yeah.
35:43
He's got that now.
35:44
So Yes.
35:45
I mean, yeah.
35:46
But they're not the quality they used to be.
35:48
That's right.
35:49
And then, yeah, we got a nice little, uh, improv Romeo and Julia se Julia
35:53
session from, uh, fucking Buddy and Roger.
35:56
That's like at the piano, like Romeo and Julie.
36:01
I was waiting for it to either go sort of Bohemian Rhapsody or
36:05
Sherry Lewis was gonna show up with the little lamb chop puppet.
36:08
You know, it was gonna go in one of these two directions.
36:12
Yeah.
36:13
So they're just annoying enough to cock block Steve and uh, so yeah.
36:17
Then what happens?
36:18
We head back to the mountain, Steve and Tina start going into their backstories
36:22
as we're down skip cut to night racing.
36:24
Yep.
36:24
So now Steve in his 3 56 outlaw goes against the Sunburst Magnum
36:30
pi, the yellow 3 0 8 Ferrari.
36:34
That's why I was hoping they would play the theme song.
36:36
Right.
36:36
So we gotta capture some of that Magnum pi goodness in the movie too.
36:40
But that race was pathetic.
36:42
What he crashes like in the third turn or something like
36:44
that, he's like off in the weeds.
36:46
Like that's the end of it.
36:47
Well, what do you mean?
36:47
That was pathetic.
36:48
That son of a bitch took my medal, says Cal Uhhuh, which is like, wait,
36:52
he beat his record time at King of the Mountain or on Mulholland Drive, I guess.
36:56
Is that what he was crying about?
36:58
By the only person that was timing it, which was Cal. 'cause who's
37:01
keeping track of this stuff, right?
37:03
I mean, like.
37:03
Whatever.
37:04
Yeah.
37:04
So then we go back to the studio and, uh, Roger, he's, uh, he's pitching
37:08
in his songs or whatever to, uh, radio executive, uh, Seymour Castle.
37:12
Barry Tanner.
37:12
That's right.
37:13
Tanner.
37:13
He's like, Hey, yeah, this song's great.
37:15
I'd like to, uh, buy it from you for, uh, the Sack Cadillac Blue, and like mm-hmm.
37:19
Well, no, no, it's, it's, it's for my songwriter buddy.
37:22
And you know, you have to, you like sign him.
37:24
It's not just for the song.
37:25
And he is like, look, yeah buddy.
37:27
He's not a songwriter until I sell him.
37:29
So you do a couple songs or whatever and then, uh, you know, we see from
37:33
there and then he is like, don't worry, you didn't sell him out.
37:36
You bought yourself in.
37:38
Mm-hmm.
37:38
I'm like, is that supposed to make me feel better?
37:40
Yeah.
37:40
Right.
37:41
Yeah.
37:41
Also like, oh my God, this guy's double speak is like infuriating and so accurate
37:46
that like, this guy's got real talent.
37:48
This is a deal maker.
37:49
This is a, this is a hit on our hands, but also he's not really that good, so
37:53
I'm just gonna buy this for nothing.
37:54
Scumbag, that's what he was.
37:56
Oh yeah.
37:57
Meanwhile, the, uh, the rest of the gang are, uh, just waiting and
38:01
drinking and stacking up lots and lots of beers at the Hollywood Bowl.
38:05
Yeah.
38:06
And they have an empty stadium apparently to play around with.
38:09
Is that just open access, like all hours?
38:11
There's not a concert.
38:12
No, babe.
38:13
They're playing a gig, but nobody showed up.
38:17
That's the real thing.
38:18
I think it's b and not a in this case, but, uh, that night Roger,
38:23
uh, shows up the apartment, all shit facing drunk and knocking on the
38:27
door is like Steve did the door.
38:31
And then this is where we get the sexy Elvira neighbors stepping out like, Hey,
38:35
will you shut the fuck up down there.
38:36
I'm trying to sleep.
38:37
So much more clarity on this scene now.
38:39
Thank you for filling in that gap.
38:41
I don't think I would've slept.
38:42
Well, not knowing, because she was yelling down like an
38:44
angry New Yorker or something.
38:45
Right.
38:46
And so you're expecting it to be like, you know, old lady, like
38:48
Hurler in her hair or some shit.
38:49
But then it's like, oh, my hot redhead.
38:51
Maybe she's looking for some action.
38:52
I don't know why else you would walk out in that outfit.
38:55
I was thinking she was the Lady of the Night.
38:57
I was like, oh, I mean, they do live in that neighborhood.
38:59
And Tina said earlier, oh, this is Valentino's old place, like
39:03
a Playboy mansion kind of thing.
39:04
And then it was like something about her either working at night or she
39:08
sleeps at night or something like that.
39:09
I was like, there was something reference to the neighbor
39:11
wearing sunglasses at night.
39:12
Definitely a thousand percent.
39:14
So I was like, whatever.
39:15
Okay.
39:15
I just let it.
39:15
Slide.
39:16
But now again, with the lens of Elvira, this makes way more sense.
39:20
Well, the stands without known as El Elvira, like your thought, like
39:23
the Lady of the Night type thing.
39:24
I was like, wait, is, isn't this how porno movies start?
39:26
Yeah, it did have that vibe.
39:29
It really did.
39:30
Hello?
39:30
I hear you have problem with pipes.
39:34
Here's your hot and spice sassy pizza.
39:36
Do you order the large Italian?
39:37
Sorry.
39:38
So then Steve eventually answers the door and Roger's like,
39:41
let's go for a drive, man.
39:42
No.
39:42
What's, what's wrong?
39:43
What's going on?
39:44
Let's go for a drive.
39:44
Let's go for a drive.
39:45
And I'm like, just fucking tell him.
39:47
So they go for a drive musical interlude, and he doesn't tell him.
39:49
So then the next morning, you know, buddies, there it is, uh, piano
39:53
singing his new song or whatever.
39:54
And he almost had to do the whole damn four minutes of that one too.
39:57
Yep.
39:57
Steven, Roger kind of show up and wait it out.
40:00
And then, uh, he's like, yeah, talk to the record exec.
40:04
And he is like, yeah, I figured he didn't call immediately.
40:06
He said he is gonna pass.
40:07
Like, no, no.
40:08
He wants you to be a songwriter, but it's gonna be covered by other bands.
40:12
But yeah, no, I heard that's song fun.
40:14
That's for.
40:15
That's our song.
40:16
Yeah.
40:16
But you know, this is how you like get in man.
40:18
And then when those are hits, they come to you for more hits.
40:20
But in fact you get in with my friends.
40:22
Yeah.
40:22
It's just a whole awkward conversation.
40:24
'cause it's like, wait, I thought it was a different situation.
40:27
Maybe I just don't understand.
40:28
The music industry probably has a lot to do with it.
40:30
You don't understand friends, Steve.
40:31
That's the problem.
40:32
This is how friends talk to each other.
40:33
True.
40:34
That's true.
40:34
I don't have friends.
40:35
You've never had a man lover.
40:36
Men lovers are very emotional creatures.
40:39
Where is this going?
40:41
These guys are lovers.
40:42
Yeah, there's a conversation between man, lover to man lover and man lover.
40:46
'cause there's three of 'em there.
40:46
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
40:47
Tanya, you can back me up on this, right?
40:49
Men are very emotional creatures when they're your lovers.
40:51
Somebody ask me a question,
40:55
sorry, stop listening.
40:56
A couple minutes ago, hot pod right here.
40:59
Hot pod.
41:02
I'm gonna take that as a yes and let's keep going.
41:04
No further questions.
41:05
The prosecution rests.
41:08
Alright.
41:08
Well luckily, God damnit, we've had zero charisma for like 30 seconds,
41:12
so we cut to back to the garage and Cal is just losing his shit.
41:15
He is, uh, going around, oh, he beat my record man, and fucking he stole my medal.
41:21
Blah, blah, blah.
41:22
Steve, you bitch ass, you broke my record.
41:24
But you're a coward.
41:25
You don't know how to drive.
41:26
Then Grizzly Adams like, has to come in and like break up their fight.
41:29
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
41:30
Wait.
41:30
This is my favorite part.
41:31
This is the breaker part where the guy who looks like, oh, geez.
41:35
Looks like Larry from the Three Stooges shows up Dennis Hopper's on the grinder
41:39
with a piece of like angle iron doing nothing, and he taps him on the shoulder.
41:43
He is like, man, I'm looking for a breaker bar.
41:44
And then he starts going nuts and he's trying to pick a fight.
41:47
And that's when Barry Gibb comes in and tries to break it up.
41:50
Mm-hmm.
41:50
And I wrote down the dialogue and I put hyphens in for every pause
41:54
that Dennis Hopper used because I thought it was intriguing.
41:57
He says, and I quote, he's drunk with his greed of his youth.
42:00
Speed.
42:01
Stop rhyming.
42:02
You know what that means?
42:04
Well, I'm not crazy, man.
42:06
Yeah.
42:07
And I put, are you sure?
42:08
Yeah.
42:09
Holy shit.
42:10
Like that was the dialogue in sequence again, they just let him off the
42:14
hook and let him do whatever he want.
42:15
Yeah, because nobody wrote that.
42:16
There's no way anybody wrote that.
42:18
No, no, no.
42:19
That's spur of the moment, man.
42:20
That's three lines of Coke in, isn't that how he is in every movie?
42:24
Mm-hmm.
42:24
Do you guys remember that commercial from when we were kids?
42:26
I think it was like the nineties and Dennis Hopper.
42:28
Yes.
42:29
It was like a shoe commercial.
42:30
And he's like, it's his footprint, man.
42:33
It's his footprint.
42:34
Right.
42:34
Do you guys remember that?
42:35
Yes.
42:35
Yeah, but it wasn't a Jordan shoe.
42:37
It was like, was it Shaq or something?
42:39
Yeah, something like that.
42:40
Right?
42:40
You Google it.
42:41
It was unreal.
42:42
Dennis.
42:42
I've always associated him with that.
42:44
It's his footprint, man.
42:46
His footprint, man.
42:47
Bruce Smith, Nike.
42:49
Oh yeah, there.
42:49
Bruce Smith, the NFL player, and Michael Irvin.
42:52
I don't recognize Dallas Cowboys.
42:55
He apparently did a whole.
42:56
Set of them.
42:57
Okay.
42:58
Yeah.
42:58
So it was like a Nike thing or whatever?
43:00
Yeah, it was for Nike.
43:01
I don't know.
43:01
We were talking, he's no Mars Blackman.
43:03
That's all I'm saying.
43:04
Recently on the pod, we were actually talking about old
43:06
commercials and remembering Tommy Vu.
43:08
Oh yeah.
43:09
Why so poor?
43:10
Why you not rich like me?
43:12
And before anybody thinks that's racist, guys, pulp the commercial
43:14
on YouTube and tell me I did just do what he did on Tommy Vu.
43:19
All right, well, enough of that, we gotta cut to the, uh, record exec party at the
43:22
music studio or whatever the hell's going on, I guess the celebration party for
43:26
signing a song or whatever's going on.
43:29
And my next question is, where's the fiance?
43:31
She's done, dude.
43:32
Oh, okay.
43:33
Did she leave?
43:33
Did they have a, a deleted scene where they broke it?
43:36
No.
43:37
Okay.
43:37
I think that was the breakup scene.
43:39
I was so confused for a second.
43:41
Grabbed her stuff and left early on in the movie.
43:43
I thought that was her ending.
43:44
But they were talking about setting a date or whatever.
43:46
Eh, Steve, she had to go back to her home planet.
43:49
She pulled a Poochie.
43:50
She had to pull a Poochie.
43:51
No, I was really confused for a second.
43:53
'cause I thought he said, where's the Beyonce?
43:59
What?
43:59
Did I miss something in this movie?
44:01
You were confused.
44:02
You thought it was Valerian.
44:04
That space movie where she dances and transforms.
44:06
Yeah.
44:06
Yeah.
44:07
Oh, valerian In the City of a Thousand Planets.
44:10
I like that movie.
44:11
Speaking of Zero Charisma.
44:12
Oh my God, that movie has zero.
44:14
That could have been a cool movie, but not one character in it is
44:17
interesting in the least bit.
44:18
I kinda like Rihanna.
44:19
You like the robot, we get it.
44:21
Yeah.
44:21
Yeah.
44:22
So yeah.
44:22
So then, uh, I don't know, we see Tina being introduced to Titus's
44:26
mom from the, uh, the series, Titus and the Trio's all together.
44:30
They're having a good time and they're like.
44:32
They instantly see each other like, Hey man, we should go
44:34
to the Hill, Mulholland Drive.
44:36
And I'm like, what?
44:37
What?
44:37
What the fuck are we talking about?
44:39
You're at a record party with blow as far as the eye can see, and you're like,
44:44
yeah, let's get up on the hill and, I don't know, drink and drive Uhhuh.
44:47
Yeah, that's addiction my friend.
44:49
Get help.
44:50
We cut to a completely useless scene of Harry Hamlin arguing
44:53
with a parking attendant of him.
44:55
What?
44:55
That scene, you don't remember that?
44:57
So Buddy leaves and goes to the mountain, right?
44:59
He takes his Mustang and he takes off and he heads up to the mountain.
45:01
Steve, Harry Hamlin realizes that Buddy left.
45:04
And he's like, oh my God, where did he go?
45:05
He goes outside and he's arguing with a parking attendant about moving.
45:09
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
45:10
That car out of the way.
45:11
But Eric, why did Buddy leave?
45:12
Oh, because he feels like he's getting ripped off.
45:14
Oh, 'cause he is.
45:15
'cause he meets Tanner and Tanner's like, oh, hey, you're buddy.
45:18
All right.
45:18
I'm not gonna make this mistake twice, because he thought
45:20
Steve was buddy earlier.
45:22
'cause they, yeah.
45:22
Look like they're twin brothers because of the pers and he basically
45:25
spills the beans into like, oh yeah, thanks for selling your four songs.
45:28
So the Cadillac Blue can do them.
45:30
And he is like, wait, what are you talking about?
45:31
Like, oh, Roger, you didn't tell him.
45:33
Oh, anyway, it's gonna be great.
45:34
You're gonna do great things in this thing.
45:36
I gotta go, I gotta get some blow.
45:37
And then your buddy's like, oh, you, you fucking lied to me, man.
45:41
I'm gonna go to the hill and kill myself.
45:42
And, and then, yeah, then we get the parking attendancy where he is like,
45:46
yo, you could just move the car.
45:48
Right.
45:48
Fucking hell.
45:48
Mm-hmm.
45:49
Again, no one's likable this movie, there's no redeemable characters at all.
45:53
Okay.
45:53
So then we cut to the hill and Cal's already up there, as he always is.
45:57
I assume when he is not at the garage, just screaming at
45:59
children, teenagers or whatever.
46:01
Basically like, oh man, this is bullshit.
46:03
This we used to be cool, man, you, you, no one's gonna fucking challenge me.
46:09
I need to get my record back, man.
46:11
Did you hear what he said?
46:12
No.
46:12
Just before buddy shows up, he goes, mothers.
46:15
That's what we used to call you mothers.
46:17
Oh yeah.
46:18
Stay at home mom.
46:19
What?
46:21
I'm glad you wrote half the stuff down.
46:22
'cause Yeah, it's just ridiculous shit.
46:24
I just kinda zone out when he starts ranting.
46:26
I'm like, like, oh no, it's my uncle at the reunion again.
46:30
Yeah.
46:31
Yeah.
46:31
We call him mothers.
46:32
Call 'em mothers.
46:33
You gotta say mothers.
46:34
Mothers wanna go.
46:35
Samuel Jackson.
46:36
They're just mothers.
46:37
And then he, but he shows up.
46:38
He is like, I'll raise your ass.
46:40
And of course Cal's like, I don't know man.
46:42
You don't seem in the right head space.
46:44
Then Cal commences to racing him in a truck.
46:46
And I'm like, hold on a sec. Yep.
46:48
It wasn't he fixing up that other car.
46:50
Oh, we gotta save that for the finale.
46:51
The Corvette.
46:52
Yeah.
46:52
So another bow tie.
46:54
So Dan, correct me if I'm wrong, that's the same pickup that was
46:57
used in the Expendables, right?
46:59
As Barney Ross's truck?
47:00
Yeah, it's the same truck.
47:01
Yeah.
47:01
Yeah.
47:02
It looked like like a 53 or something like that.
47:04
Yeah, it was with the round headlights and that grill.
47:06
And I immediately was like, Ooh, if that was painted, sat in black.
47:09
We got the Expendables truck.
47:10
We're good.
47:11
I was able to check it.
47:12
It's a 56 F 100 in this and the expendables is a 55.
47:16
Ah, I knew they were the same truck.
47:18
See, I knew they were the same truck.
47:19
There you go.
47:20
All right.
47:20
And that sweet little gear shift.
47:22
Oh please.
47:23
Oh man.
47:24
And then of course Steve shows up like 10 seconds too late and
47:27
is like, Hey, his buddy up here.
47:28
Like, oh, you just missed him, man.
47:30
And so then Steve's chasing behind him or whatever and they
47:34
start trading pain a little bit.
47:36
This has to be the single worst driving sequence in the entire film.
47:41
Yeah, it was that night.
47:43
It was very close.
47:44
Camera shots and stuff.
47:45
Just kinda like thrown together and like pan back and show the race.
47:49
Speed it up if you have to.
47:50
I did have like a moment though when Buddy leans out the window
47:54
and like they can hear each other.
47:56
They're going down MOHO and 70, 80 miles an hour.
47:58
He's like sit on it and rotate.
48:00
Sit on it.
48:01
Yeah.
48:02
What are you talking about?
48:03
Like what is going on here and Cal? He had like a little uh, spotlight or whatever.
48:09
He was like flashing over at him every once in a while.
48:11
Right.
48:11
Police light.
48:12
Yeah.
48:13
Good stuff.
48:13
You know buddy.
48:14
He's going a little too fast.
48:16
How do we know?
48:16
Because Steve says so when he is following behind.
48:18
Takes that turn and right into a fucking gas line.
48:21
Boo
48:25
crash.
48:25
Boom.
48:25
Bang.
48:26
Little buddy.
48:26
Barbecue.
48:27
No, no, no.
48:28
So hear me out for a second.
48:29
You said before Steve was 10 seconds behind and he had a one
48:33
of the most horrific takeoffs.
48:35
If he couldn't find it, he, he grounded out like it was horrible.
48:38
So let's just say he's 20 seconds behind.
48:40
He's got this record on the mountain and he can't catch a pickup truck.
48:44
And a guy that's drunk in a, in a Mustang.
48:46
Oh no.
48:46
He caught up.
48:47
He was just behind him like watching or something.
48:49
I don't know.
48:50
But there was a point though where he fell way back too.
48:53
Like, again, this is where I say the driving sequence, it was awful.
48:56
The worst driving scene in the whole movie.
48:58
Yeah.
48:59
When they're coming down, Cal being as drunk as he was
49:02
driving the truck is one thing.
49:03
Apparently he had enough ability to mess with the spotlight.
49:07
He had to keep blinding.
49:09
Mm-hmm.
49:09
In the car while doing it.
49:10
While he is driving.
49:11
I'm like, this dude's a phenomenal driver if he can do that.
49:13
Mm-hmm.
49:13
He's phenomenal at something, that's for sure.
49:16
He's high functioning.
49:17
He's a guy man.
49:18
During the, the night race with Buddy and Cal, did anybody look at Buddy's
49:22
dash and see all the duct tape?
49:25
I noticed that too.
49:26
That was holding, basically holding the entire car together
49:29
was a roll of duct tape.
49:30
Yeah.
49:31
That's how you know it's a real race car because all of Eric's cars use duct tape.
49:34
Yeah.
49:35
Actually zip ties Gorilla Tape.
49:37
Strong man.
49:37
It's got the speed holes punched in them.
49:39
Eric's race cars have copper pipe and zip ties.
49:42
A hundred percent.
49:44
A hundred percent.
49:44
And some wood in there too, somewhere.
49:46
It's not a Tesla.
49:47
It's not a Tesla.
49:50
Uh, so buddies did, and then I ran down to Steve just starts.
49:54
Whacking the hill with a giant stick that he found.
49:57
Uhhuh and screaming buddy.
50:00
Yeah.
50:00
He is just whacking a stick.
50:01
Yeah.
50:01
So then, then we cut to Cal.
50:03
He's uh, fixing his car at the garage as he does when he's not on the hill.
50:07
Steve, he comes into work ready to go and uh, the boss comes
50:11
out, you know, grizzly Adams.
50:12
He is like, Hey man, why don't you just like take the day off?
50:15
And he is like, I need this man.
50:16
I need to.
50:17
I just need to do something.
50:18
Alright, cool.
50:19
And then, yeah, Rick the boss or whatever, shows him a picture from
50:22
like 15 years ago being like, yeah man, I used to go up on the hill too.
50:26
Cow's fucking crazy.
50:28
You don't need that shit Set.
50:29
Barry Gibb.
50:30
And I'm like, yeah, same voice.
50:32
Finally, maybe Grizzly Adams is the real hero over this movie.
50:35
Why did we pan in after that to a picture of Gomer Pile from like the 1950s?
50:40
What was that picture?
50:42
Was that him?
50:42
Uh, I think that was, uh, grizzly Adams 15 years ago.
50:45
It was a way before 15 years ago.
50:48
Yeah.
50:48
Well maybe he said 50.
50:50
I don't know.
50:50
So the picture they zoomed in on, so it had a picture of Rick, which
50:53
was the shop owner, and then it zoomed in on Cal. It wasn't going.
50:56
Oh, okay.
50:56
So cow.
50:57
Okay, okay.
50:59
Oh yeah, that makes sense.
51:00
I was like, what are we zooming in on?
51:02
I didn't under, I was like, that doesn't look like him.
51:04
Okay.
51:05
Well, you know.
51:05
Steve, after a day of work, he goes to see Tina.
51:08
She's getting all dolled up and uh, like going to the Roxy, like
51:12
obviously she's hanging out with the record executive stuff now.
51:15
'cause you know, she's gonna get hers.
51:17
And, uh, they have, I'd like to call it a fight, but it's more of like, so
51:20
you're just gonna hang out with this guy?
51:21
And she's like, well, yeah, because are we even a thing?
51:24
Don't you have a fiance?
51:26
I was waiting for her to pull that one out and like, bring that back into the movie.
51:30
Nope, nope, no.
51:31
None of that.
51:32
No.
51:32
And she says to him too, during this quote unquote fight, which
51:35
was pretty tame, she's like, back and forth and back and forth.
51:37
Where is that gonna take you?
51:38
And he's like, nowhere.
51:40
That's it.
51:40
It's the most fast in furious line of the entire movie.
51:42
Damn.
51:43
Apparently.
51:44
Where is it gonna get you?
51:45
No, uh, yeah, I don't know.
51:47
The limousine comes to like, pick her up is our unidentified guy, the chauffeur.
51:52
Oh, big Tom or whatever?
51:53
No, no, no, no.
51:54
That guy was listed as chauffeur and the IMDV credits or whatever.
51:57
Oh, okay, okay.
51:57
Because he was really awkward.
51:59
Yeah.
51:59
He kinda looked like, uh, shit.
52:01
The guy from, uh, WKRP in Cincinnati a little bit, I kept thinking
52:05
James Spader for blacklist a little bit like, you know Yeah.
52:08
Oh yeah, the rose glasses.
52:09
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
52:10
Like he was definitely in witness protection, it looked like.
52:12
And then the goodbye kiss, we have the goodbye kiss, right?
52:14
Yeah.
52:15
The goodbye kiss.
52:15
And I'm like, wait, does this scene warrant a goodbye kiss?
52:19
No, not really.
52:20
Yeah, they, they say goodbye like, oh yeah, take it easy.
52:23
Like, Hey, that feels like a commitment.
52:24
He, he, he, are you gonna be here when I get back?
52:27
You mean if you get back?
52:29
So then we go to the mountain, as we always do every night, forever.
52:33
They're like, Hey Steve, there's this guy from Downey who wants to race.
52:36
Nah, I'm good.
52:37
And I'm like, cool, then why the fuck are you there?
52:40
He's waiting for cow.
52:42
That's what he's waiting for.
52:43
Oh, was he?
52:44
Oh, okay.
52:44
Yeah, he's waiting for Cal. He's waiting to see if he's gonna show
52:47
up and then, and he doesn't until morning as we come to find out.
52:50
But I do wanna pull a thread here.
52:52
Dan, the guy that challenges Steve shows up in a two 40 Z. Two 80 Z
52:57
depending on, you know what it was.
52:59
Same body style.
53:00
Did that sound like a straight six to you?
53:02
I don't recall.
53:03
'cause it's been like a month since I watched the movie.
53:04
Dude.
53:05
It loped, like it had a LS in it.
53:07
That was engine swapped.
53:09
It's like, what is up with the Z car?
53:11
It looked cool though.
53:12
I, I liked it.
53:13
I would've liked to seen that race.
53:14
I think that would've been interesting.
53:15
But E Eric, what does that sound like?
53:17
Dan could do a better impression of a Chevy V eight than I can.
53:20
Oh, no, I need you to do it.
53:21
Uh, we, we need the expert car talk style.
53:24
We, we need the, uh, the, the movie Foley expert.
53:27
Oh yeah.
53:27
You need that
53:30
sitting there loping.
53:34
Yeah.
53:35
But yeah, like I said, the morning rolls around and Cal pulls up.
53:38
Steve realizing he doesn't need any of this bullshit, just drives away.
53:42
Back home.
53:43
Uhhuh roll credits, guys.
53:45
What do we think?
53:46
No, no.
53:46
That's not what happens at all.
53:47
We don't race.
53:48
I yelled out.
53:49
And so we race at dawn
53:55
because they're racing their feelings.
53:58
Oh God.
54:00
Oh, it's an allegory.
54:05
Yeah.
54:05
And as they're, uh, they're racing along.
54:07
Cal starts running.
54:08
Time is speed.
54:09
Speed is time.
54:11
I wrote that down too.
54:12
I am the road queen.
54:14
The road the road is a construct.
54:16
It's made of people, whatever the fuck he's yelling at.
54:19
Right?
54:19
Oh, but then he yells.
54:21
'cause you're talking about the curse words earlier.
54:22
They're going at it and he goes, we're faster than shit, man.
54:26
Yeah.
54:27
What?
54:27
I don't know.
54:27
I've had some fast shit.
54:29
Somebody's obviously never eaten at the discount buffet in a Chinatown.
54:34
Right.
54:35
Gas station fish tacos.
54:36
All I'm gonna say, oh, Steve, don't you remember?
54:39
Uh, was it, uh, Lee Dumb Kim's or whatever?
54:42
Yeah.
54:43
You guys, 5 99, uh, Chinese.
54:45
All you can eat Buffet in the middle of San Francisco.
54:47
Chinatown.
54:48
Brad knows all about House of Hongs.
54:50
Yeah.
54:52
That being said, that Corvette is a hot mess.
54:56
I mean, it looks like something outta Mad Max.
54:58
He's driving like a mental patient.
55:00
It's the car from Corvette Summer, but driven by Dennis Hopper for six months.
55:04
Yeah, right.
55:06
Like the hoods popped off.
55:08
All the sides are danging.
55:08
He crashed, but he is like emotionally attached to it, so like he turned it from
55:13
a burning ball of fire back into that.
55:15
It's like a franking vet now.
55:16
I think that's what we're supposed to get from that whole thing is that that car is
55:20
resurrected from the ashes type deal and that's why he was resurrected, which is.
55:24
Why at the end of this spoilers, neither of them will be able to be resurrected.
55:29
Is the picture of Dorian Gray, they were connected the whole time.
55:32
Uhhuh?
55:32
Yeah.
55:32
'cause cattle, uh, during the race, he like spins out a little bit, gets
55:35
back into it and Steve sees that turn coming up, still has the burn marks
55:39
that smells like buddy buddy burnt hair.
55:42
Steve body hasn't even cooled down enough for the coroner.
55:44
Haul it all.
55:45
Yeah, right.
55:45
The coroner's still putting them in the back, but then you hear him
55:48
say, I don't want this anymore.
55:50
Cal, it's all yours.
55:52
Yeah, his drive along Cal, he speeds past right into a fucking construction
55:56
site and spins out and off the cliff and boom, silver dream racer motherfuckers.
56:03
He's dead at the end.
56:05
And I believe this is what I turned to Steve, who was like, wait, what?
56:08
What happened?
56:08
Huh?
56:09
Who is that?
56:10
That's Cal. So much is happening right now in a movie where nothing has happened.
56:14
That's his footprint, man.
56:16
Right.
56:17
I'll give this racing some credit to where they're actually like drifting that
56:20
Corvette somewhere around the turns and everything and you can see it because
56:23
it's in the morning light and stuff.
56:24
It's not at night and you're just seeing headlights.
56:26
Spurring all over the fucking screen.
56:28
A thousand percent.
56:29
And I agree with you, that's why I said the previous driving sequence
56:32
was the worst in the movie by far.
56:34
This one was better, it was more entertaining.
56:37
It wasn't great because every once in a while you would catch
56:40
a glimpse of the dashboard.
56:42
Especially in the Porsche, they're doing 30 miles an hour.
56:44
Like the gauge is literally reading 30.
56:47
You're just like, wow.
56:48
This is pathetic.
56:48
Yeah.
56:48
He was running it up to the red line at the 30 mile an hour in first gear.
56:52
Yeah.
56:53
That's why they did the erratic camera shots.
56:54
'cause you watch 'em doing Mulholland Drive, they're really
56:57
doing, yeah, like 20, 25 miles an hour on those turns and stuff.
57:01
And you know, it's like a shutdown road on, you know how you see like
57:03
professional drivers like you do in commercials, you by professional drivers.
57:07
It's like, no, this is just, we'll fix it in post.
57:09
So yeah, Cal's exploded.
57:11
Steve walks up there, the turn and there's cal's little, uh, stopwatch
57:15
or whatever, picks it up, blocks off.
57:18
Roll credits guys.
57:19
That's King of the mountain.
57:20
No, but wait, they play Dangerous Strangers after he clicks the stop.
57:24
Oh yeah, they play the full song again.
57:26
Yes, they do.
57:27
Let's Be Dangerous Strangers.
57:30
So was the song a metaphor too?
57:32
Were they dangerous strangers, Cal and Steve?
57:35
No.
57:35
They were no Their love, no each other for years, man.
57:40
They had to erase their emotions and they were only dangerous to themselves.
57:43
And others on the road and everybody in their crew.
57:48
I love the pause there.
57:49
They were only dangerous to themselves, themselves and others.
57:53
It's a metaphor.
57:54
Anyway, Tanya, would you recommend this movie again?
57:57
I mean, she already did.
58:00
She recommended it to us Fools.
58:02
Yeah, exactly.
58:03
I've never seen it.
58:05
How can I recommend it if I've never seen it?
58:07
I suggested it.
58:09
We gotta blame somebody, Tony.
58:11
Somebody's going down for this and it ain't gonna be me.
58:13
That's right.
58:13
I mean, is this the worst on the ranking totem?
58:17
Is this at the bottom?
58:19
This is not the worst movie we have done in this here.
58:21
Collaboration.
58:22
I will say that exactly.
58:24
I'm right there with you because I'm gonna admit I do not even come
58:28
close to holding Dan's record of watching Trading Paint nine times.
58:33
I did watch this twice because I wanted to refresh my memory after two weeks abroad,
58:38
and so it was re watchable the last chase.
58:41
It's re watchable every 20 years.
58:43
If we're gonna compare movies like that.
58:45
The stuntman, I don't know that I could rewatch that movie.
58:48
You know what I mean?
58:49
No.
58:49
That movie's great.
58:50
You are complaining about the stuntman.
58:52
It's up there with the fall guy.
58:54
Fall guy.
58:54
Yes.
58:55
I could rewatch the fall guy.
58:56
This is definitely rewatch, watchable.
58:57
I did pick up a little bit more the second time I watched it.
59:00
Just because airports and you're bored and you just kind of plowed through it.
59:04
Yeah.
59:04
He picked up on more of the, uh, romance or romances as it were this time around.
59:09
I have you to thank for that.
59:11
I could definitely see it now.
59:14
So does Steve go back to his fiance at the end?
59:16
Yeah, he goes back to work.
59:18
He's gonna run off with the rich record producer, duh.
59:20
Oh yeah.
59:21
There we go.
59:21
Two completed this game.
59:22
Tina The Wonder Kid, right?
59:24
No.
59:24
Buddy's the songwriter.
59:26
He's gonna steal all the buddy songs.
59:27
Oh yeah.
59:28
Shit.
59:28
He's got all of his notes at home and he is like, yeah, yeah, I could play.
59:31
It's on the piano.
59:32
Uh, shake your ass.
59:33
Watch yourself shake ass.
59:35
Show me what you're working with.
59:39
So let's see what Brad thinks.
59:40
Brad, would you recommend this movie?
59:42
What did you think?
59:42
Uh, no I wouldn't.
59:43
No.
59:44
What it, it's not the worst, like you're saying.
59:47
It is not the worst movie we've done.
59:48
I think the Stunt man takes the cake for that one.
59:51
You guys did not like the stunt man.
59:53
No, they didn't.
59:54
That is baffling.
59:55
Senior moment.
59:56
Have you guys forgot against All Odds?
59:58
Yeah.
59:59
And you guys shit on the Stunt man.
1:00:01
What was the one with, what was it?
1:00:03
John Travolta Trading.
1:00:04
Pain Trading.
1:00:04
Pain Trading.
1:00:07
Okay.
1:00:07
That, I think that's our one out of 10.
1:00:09
Yeah, it's a toss up.
1:00:10
Yeah.
1:00:10
No, the Lamborghini movie was really bad.
1:00:13
Oh yeah.
1:00:14
Shit.
1:00:14
I think we watched a lot of bad movies with you guys.
1:00:17
So is it with us or are there just a lot of bad car movies?
1:00:21
I mean, yes.
1:00:21
Here's the thing.
1:00:22
Steve and I have seen a lot of bad movies, and I will put it this way.
1:00:26
The worst car movie that we have seen is like a five on the bad movie
1:00:31
radar because at least it has cars.
1:00:33
There are movies that are that bad with no cars.
1:00:36
I would lump this in with Corvette Summer and some of those other movies
1:00:39
where you can watch this on a weekend when you got nothing else going on.
1:00:43
Put it on in the background.
1:00:44
And it's not terrible, but it's not good either.
1:00:46
Look, it's no gone in 30 seconds.
1:00:47
I'm just gonna say that.
1:00:48
Gone in 30 seconds.
1:00:50
That the web short version, it's the prequel to gone in 60 seconds.
1:00:54
It's the What about shoplifting?
1:00:56
My, my, my attention span was gone in 30 seconds.
1:00:59
Yeah, it was that Rockford files thing.
1:01:02
So Dan, what do you do?
1:01:03
Would you recommend it?
1:01:03
Dan recommends all the movies.
1:01:05
I'm with you on this, Eric, for the fact it's, I don't
1:01:07
hate it, but I don't love it.
1:01:08
It's kind of middle tier for me where I agree you could
1:01:11
put it on in the background.
1:01:13
I didn't hate it.
1:01:14
It's just certain things about it made me cringe though.
1:01:16
'cause like you were saying, some of the inside shots where it showed
1:01:18
they were doing 30 mile an hour, did you also pick up on the fact
1:01:21
that it had the tack in the dash and then the tack mounted on the dashes?
1:01:24
Yeah.
1:01:24
Yeah.
1:01:25
Attacks everywhere, man.
1:01:26
Like why do you need two tacks?
1:01:27
I thought they were like different cars too, but it's like, oh no, no.
1:01:30
Yeah, this is the same one.
1:01:31
You can see 'em like in the same shot a couple of times.
1:01:33
Yeah.
1:01:34
Did you guys notice, Dan and I have come to an agreement for
1:01:37
the first time on a movie review.
1:01:39
What?
1:01:40
What?
1:01:40
Mark it down.
1:01:41
Alright, how about you, Izzy?
1:01:42
What do you think about this movie?
1:01:44
A hundred percent.
1:01:44
It's not the worst movie we've seen.
1:01:46
Mm-hmm.
1:01:46
But there's so many better car movies you guys, a thousand percent.
1:01:49
Since you guys like this movie so much, would you consider watching Silver
1:01:53
Dream Race or knowing it's the exact same movie, but with Ooh, motorcycles?
1:01:57
No, no, no.
1:01:58
My Curiosity has the best me, so I'm gonna watch it.
1:02:00
Just watch the last three minutes.
1:02:01
It's the only part worth watching.
1:02:03
Just watch this movie.
1:02:04
And then about the time Cal's about to crash, switch over to Silver Dream Racer.
1:02:08
We still need to do Biker Boys since you opened the door for
1:02:11
suggesting movies for next time.
1:02:13
Oh boy.
1:02:13
Wait.
1:02:14
We're not done with this one, but go ahead.
1:02:16
Yeah, they're talking about Biker Boys and Silver Dream Racer.
1:02:18
Torque.
1:02:19
Yeah.
1:02:19
Torque Baby.
1:02:20
No, no.
1:02:21
Oh, torque.
1:02:22
I'm gonna take it to the far other extreme.
1:02:25
We're gonna go to the Land of the Rising.
1:02:26
Son, let's do Thunderbolt with Jackie Chan.
1:02:29
Oh, you guys don't wanna do Thunderbolt.
1:02:31
That's right.
1:02:31
The very first, the original Fast and Furious.
1:02:34
Oh, the black and white one.
1:02:36
1950. Yeah.
1:02:36
The Roger Forman one.
1:02:37
Yeah.
1:02:37
Yeah, I have that.
1:02:38
Yeah, we could do that too.
1:02:40
Thunderbolt.
1:02:41
Just think.
1:02:41
There's no dialogue that we could understand.
1:02:43
So the reviews could be really short.
1:02:45
This would not be the first time Steve and I reviewed a movie that was in Japanese
1:02:48
language and there were no subtitles and we did not know there was a dub available.
1:02:53
That's Black Tie Killers on the Broadband podcast.
1:02:56
Well then now we're take quick commercial break.
1:02:58
Oh.
1:02:58
But when we come back, we have Mob.
1:03:00
Oh thank God.
1:03:01
Fun facts and what we learned from King of the Mountain.
1:03:05
King of the Mountain.
1:03:11
There's so many podcasts out there.
1:03:13
How do I find the one for me?
1:03:18
For so long.
1:03:19
I've searched for podcasts all over, but none of 'em seem to fit my needs.
1:03:23
Where's my Nick Cage Pissing Fire podcast?
1:03:26
Where's my monkey tickling?
1:03:27
I couldn't find it anywhere until I found everything I learned from Louis's
1:03:31
podcast with Steve Nzi, and now I get to hear about all the monkey tickling.
1:03:35
I won Baby.
1:03:38
So many podcasts out there are All Talk and no Congo.
1:03:42
That's why I listen to everything I learned from movies Greatest
1:03:46
Living Actor, Nicholas Cage.
1:03:47
Of course, that's why I listen to everything I learned from
1:03:51
movies, one-liners, plot holes, gratuitous boobies.
1:03:55
Fun fact.
1:03:56
That's why I listen to everything I learned from movies.
1:04:00
See if everything I learned from movies is right for you at EILF movies.
1:04:03
That's everything I learned from movies on Twitter, Facebook, or Patreon.
1:04:09
Free on all the major podcast catchers.
1:04:12
And we're back.
1:04:12
Oh my God, Steve, those are the greatest ads that I've
1:04:14
added in the history of adding.
1:04:16
Oh, she said it.
1:04:17
They get better every week.
1:04:18
Ah, babe.
1:04:19
I think I'm just gonna have another, uh, Sockeye.
1:04:21
Dagger Falls.
1:04:21

1:04:25
Oh, he's top.
1:04:26
Oh, sorry.
1:04:27
Oh, so hop up for H. He's just covering my top with his now he's sucking the head.
1:04:34
What did we suck buddy?
1:04:36
Alright.
1:04:37
Yeah.
1:04:37
Not a bad beer.
1:04:38
You been on.
1:04:38
Number two, my dad choking on his drink, which appears to be in a Mountain Dew.
1:04:43
Yes.
1:04:43
Say a Mountain Dew Cup.
1:04:44
He says it's water, but it's the beast, the beast mode.
1:04:49
So it's Mountain Dew and Monster Energy drink.
1:04:51
Got it.
1:04:53
It was just a shot of Jack From the box.
1:04:55
Yeah.
1:04:55
From the dashboard of a citro in.
1:05:00
Yeah.
1:05:01
So would uh, any of you be interested in any fun facts about this movie?
1:05:04
Absolutely.
1:05:05
Only if there fun facts.
1:05:06
Super fun facts 'cause fun, fun facts.
1:05:09
Steve has driven a citron, by the way.
1:05:11
Which one?
1:05:11
Uh, the Citri lingo.
1:05:14
The, the fucking van or whatever.
1:05:15
Oh, the van.
1:05:16
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
1:05:17
Those are still, that thing gets like 70 miles to the gallon though.
1:05:20
It's fucking amazing.
1:05:20
Yeah.
1:05:21
We rented one as a camper fan when we were in Iceland.
1:05:23
I just had a Citron as a rental.
1:05:25
Yes.
1:05:26
Which one?
1:05:27
The Air Cross.
1:05:28
Spectacular.
1:05:29
It was terrible.
1:05:30
Meanwhile, fun facts.
1:05:31
Super fun facts.
1:05:32
What do you got for us, Steve?
1:05:33
Alright.
1:05:34
Rotten tomatoes, no critic reviews.
1:05:36
What?
1:05:36
Any guesses on what that audience score is though?
1:05:39
Yes, because I saw it as soon as Fandango opened in my face.
1:05:42
Yeah.
1:05:43
Damia.
1:05:43
Fandango, I have to abstain.
1:05:45
You can't not see it.
1:05:47
Yeah, I did not see it.
1:05:48
So I will guess 47.
1:05:49
I'm gonna guess 35.
1:05:51
Uh, I'm gonna go with my super generous 17%.
1:05:53
Oh God.
1:05:54
Well Matt Manang was right on at 47%.
1:05:57
God damn.
1:05:57
Says the guy who said he didn't see it.
1:05:59
Yeah, right.
1:06:00
I totally didn't see it.
1:06:01
Probably 47.
1:06:02
Not looking at it right now.
1:06:03
You're just pulling it outta my ass.
1:06:05
47. I'm office can be on these all the time, so you gotta win one
1:06:09
every We agreed on something Dan.
1:06:11
Yeah, it's a red letter day.
1:06:12
Take him to Vegas, put it all on black.
1:06:15
Yep.
1:06:15
$2 million budget.
1:06:16
I'm just gonna guess.
1:06:17
1.8 US gross.
1:06:19
Not a big movie, I don't think.
1:06:21
Uh, 1.8 million worldwide.
1:06:22
Wait, so you're telling me they spent 2 million bucks to make this movie?
1:06:26
Well, those cars probably half a million in the cars.
1:06:29
Dennis Hopper, man, that's a lot of Coke.
1:06:30
Yeah.
1:06:30
Dennis Hopper got 1.5 and you know, uh, Elvira, that's where the money went.
1:06:36
Oh, yeah, there you go.
1:06:37
And the film is based on an article in Titered Thunder Road by David
1:06:42
Berry and published in New West Magazine on July 31st, 1978.
1:06:46
The piece told that the Mulholland Racing Association organization
1:06:49
whose membership were youths, who raced cars across 23 mile stretch of
1:06:53
Mulholland Drive in Las Vegas Hills.
1:06:55
The movie also has been attributed to an article by David Berry that
1:06:59
was published in the LA Times.
1:07:01
Okay.
1:07:02
Is that all you're gonna say about that?
1:07:03
That's all I got about that.
1:07:04
Go on.
1:07:04
Okay.
1:07:04
So the reality is, so that article, it's based off a man named Chris Banning,
1:07:09
who is the king of the mountain.
1:07:11
And he built a purpose-built nine 11 RSR, specifically to race on Mulholland.
1:07:17
It's known as the nine 11 Mulholland.
1:07:19
He went to Germany, they gave him specs and data to build this car.
1:07:24
This car was in the Peterson Museum.
1:07:26
He still owns the car, I believe, but like he did things like slant the
1:07:30
windshield to make it more aerodynamic, all the suspension, all this stuff.
1:07:35
He's like a builder on top of everything.
1:07:37
Oh wow.
1:07:37
So it's loosely based off him.
1:07:39
And apparently the impetus for him to build this RSR out of a regular,
1:07:44
like RS nine 11 was, he was racing on there and some dude in some like
1:07:48
Chevy pickup truck rolled up and he had a hard time getting around him.
1:07:53
That was Cal baby.
1:07:54
He's like, I gotta build something here.
1:07:56
And then he went and he built this monster.
1:07:58
Nine 11.
1:07:59
Alright.
1:08:00
Applause for bringing the super funnest car.
1:08:03
Fun fact to any crossover episode ever.
1:08:07
Mad props to Tanya.
1:08:08
That was very well done.
1:08:10
Excellent, excellent research there.
1:08:13
He had to completely customize the car to be the pickup.
1:08:16
That's all I'm saying.
1:08:16
Yeah.
1:08:17
A pickup.
1:08:17
No, I think, I believe he got around them.
1:08:20
'cause there's an interview you can watch.
1:08:21
They've got posted on the Peterson Automotive Museum.
1:08:24
So it's a really short video of him talking.
1:08:26
He's sitting in front of the car and he is talking about it
1:08:27
and he talks about that moment.
1:08:29
I have to go watch it again.
1:08:30
I think he got around him, but then he was like, because Mulholland
1:08:33
is really rough and bumpy.
1:08:35
Yeah.
1:08:35
Which the regular nine 11 is not designed for it.
1:08:38
So he'd completely tune the car to drive on Mulholland and like that's it.
1:08:43
And the car is known as the nine 11 Mulholland.
1:08:47
It's known as nine 11.
1:08:48
Yes.
1:08:48
Yeah.
1:08:49
Very cool.
1:08:50
Never forget, you know what, I've been slick.
1:08:52
Maybe we need to go back and watch it again.
1:08:54
Nobody's gonna do this.
1:08:55
Is at the Porsche shop is to see if the car happens to be in the background.
1:08:59
Because if you think about it, it's a 76 9 11.
1:09:02
This RSR Mulholland, the movie was in 80.
1:09:05
There's a high probability, it might be a cameo in the background because I
1:09:08
wanted to go, but I didn't have time to research the nine 11 that that old guy
1:09:12
was pushing, which was RSR Motorsports.
1:09:14
It was a nine 11 race car belonged to somebody's team.
1:09:17
They show a 74 9 11 Carrera, RSR, but the one being pushed in was a 1979.
1:09:24
14. Well, there you go.
1:09:24
But anyway, it'd be cool to see if this car was in the background somewhere.
1:09:27
Never know.
1:09:28
There you go.
1:09:29
And uh, Harry Hamlin the star of our movie.
1:09:31
He replaced Brad Davis.
1:09:33
I'm the lead role of Steve, but Davis was allegedly fired due to his
1:09:37
alleged drug problems because this movie didn't have enough of those.
1:09:40
He would've fit right in.
1:09:41
Yeah, right.
1:09:41
And you guys might be asking, who the fuck is Brad Davis?
1:09:44
'cause I had to look it up.
1:09:45
He was old Georgian Roots.
1:09:47
Oh, chariots of Fire, midnight Express.
1:09:49
That's about all I got.
1:09:50
I didn't really recognize him for anything else.
1:09:52
The make and model of the car that Steve Drives is supposedly supposed
1:09:56
to be a silver 58 Porsche 3 56.
1:09:59
Sports or convertible, but in fact was a replica.
1:10:02
Oh yeah.
1:10:04
That was an Outlaw 3 56.
1:10:06
Yeah.
1:10:07
I mean it, it might be a Beetle, but there was a company out in California that
1:10:11
was building three 50 sixes like that.
1:10:13
Yeah.
1:10:13
Apparently it was a Volkswagen Beetle convertible.
1:10:16
Oh, interesting.
1:10:16
And uh, the last one I got guys, this was the comeback movie for Dennis
1:10:20
Hopper who had been filming in Europe for years because he was banned from
1:10:24
Australia and America apparently wouldn't insure him for a while.
1:10:28
I don't know what.
1:10:28
Yeah.
1:10:28
Apparently this list as his comeback movie to the Americas.
1:10:31
Oh.
1:10:32
But now we've reached the most important part.
1:10:34
Hmm.
1:10:34
What did we learn from king of the.
1:10:37
Tanya as Queen of the Mountain.
1:10:38
Would you like to go first?
1:10:39
Well, I think I shared what I learned 'cause I went into a deep dive
1:10:42
and found out there was actually a loose thread to a real life story.
1:10:47
Yeah, well done, well played.
1:10:49
And that way.
1:10:50
Still better than Fast and Furious based on an article.
1:10:54
Was it Racer X by some guy that was in some magazine
1:10:58
and now we're 12 movies deep.
1:11:01
Brett, how about you?
1:11:01
I learned that there is no king of the mountain.
1:11:04
The mountain cannot be beaten.
1:11:05
Ooh, very prophetic mountain is undefeated.
1:11:08
Yes, the house always wins.
1:11:11
The mountain always wins.
1:11:12
Speed is time and time to speed.
1:11:16
Your car's like a runaway knife, man.
1:11:19
How about you Mount Man, Dan, not Mount Mike.
1:11:21
I'm just gonna say like, Tanya's little tidbits of information were great
1:11:24
and I just like the fact that car had to be custom made to get around
1:11:26
to That's, that's a great thing.
1:11:27
You're gonna, you're gonna hold that over my head.
1:11:30
Oh my God.
1:11:32
Couldn't get that Porsche around that Chevy.
1:11:36
I can hear it now.
1:11:37
The next barbecue, that's all we're gonna be talking about.
1:11:40
They don't tell you that it was Nicki Lauda driving the The pickup.
1:11:45
Oh, that makes a difference, right?
1:11:46
Yeah.
1:11:48
Stunt driver ton Sena behind the wheel of the Chevy.
1:11:54
I winning.
1:11:54
How about you Eric?
1:11:55
So I learned a couple things.
1:11:57
I mean mad props to Tanya.
1:11:58
I didn't go down that rabbit hole.
1:12:00
I was loving the whole 3 56 outlaw thing.
1:12:02
Jackie from too close for comfort, Debra VanValkenberg, whatever, so she can sing.
1:12:06
And I thought that was cool.
1:12:07
I actually thought she had a pretty voice and the song aside,
1:12:10
I think she did really well.
1:12:12
But for me, going back again to a car related, what did I learn?
1:12:15
I learned that you can stack mount two oil coolers in the space of the
1:12:20
rear grill on a 3 56 slash beetle.
1:12:23
Did anybody else notice that?
1:12:25
That was not a wing.
1:12:26
Those were two oil coolers on the back of the car.
1:12:29
So I learned you could get away with that.
1:12:31
Super safe.
1:12:32
There you go.
1:12:32
How about you, babe?
1:12:33
I learned that fiances are just like.
1:12:35
A construct man, and they'll disappear at anytime.
1:12:38
And really, the love between a man and a woman is nothing compared to the
1:12:42
love between two men and a sandwich.
1:12:48
That was a heated scene.
1:12:50
That was a heated scene.
1:12:51
That was the most emotion we got out of anybody in this
1:12:54
whole movie, of all the scenes.
1:12:55
I was waiting for that porn music to started up.
1:13:00
Yeah.
1:13:00
I I don't think there was a better subway commercial than that.
1:13:04
Jared had nothing on that.
1:13:07
You got any other foot lungs?
1:13:09
Is that what Jared looked like in the eighties?
1:13:13
That's a heard salami.
1:13:15
Uh, see, I learned you gotta ride the edge if you wanna win the edge of the sandwich.
1:13:19
Yeah.
1:13:20
At the edge of the sandwich.
1:13:21
Yeah.
1:13:21
Gotta be fast as shit.
1:13:23
And you didn't sell 'em out, you bought yourself in.
1:13:26
See, you're gonna wear that as a shirt.
1:13:28
Yeah, right.
1:13:28
I didn't sell you out.
1:13:29
I bought myself in.
1:13:32
That would make a great t-shirt.
1:13:33
It's just a picture of a dude with no face and a perm and instead
1:13:37
of his face it says those words.
1:13:39
It would be fantastic.
1:13:39
I would wear that.
1:13:40
Dude.
1:13:40
So many people you have me sold at no face in a perm.
1:13:44
