- 1:51Speaker 2: foiler i i don't at least several of you have
- 1:54Speaker 2: not witnessed it in the real world the foilers i
- 1:59Speaker 2: i designed these myself it's it's the most coveted award
- 2:02Speaker 2: because not only is it i feel like we're you
- 2:05Speaker 2: know if the oscars are golden we're kind of at
- 2:07Speaker 2: the aluminum level of you know if we're balancing it
- 2:10Speaker 2: out Plus, knowing this party the way that it usually goes,
- 2:15Speaker 2: you can open it up and use it to take
- 2:16Speaker 2: home leftovers. So it's dual duty, I'd like to say.
- 2:20Speaker 2: So if you guys need a foiler, it's right there.
- 2:24Speaker 8: Actually, did you mold it around something that's shaped like
- 2:28Speaker 8: an award? Because it's award-shaped.
- 2:30Speaker 2: I cast this myself, and I've chiseled each one out
- 2:34Speaker 2: by hand. These are from the aluminum mines of mortar.
- 2:38Speaker 2: I start with the original.
- 2:40Speaker 7: All right.
- 2:40Speaker 8: It's like if you shape that by hand, that's kind
- 2:42Speaker 8: of impressive.
- 2:44Speaker 2: I'm an artiste, thank you.
- 2:45Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 2:47Speaker 2: Now, the other special guest, because as always, since the
- 2:51Speaker 2: beginning of this ridiculous idea, it's not just an Oscar party.
- 2:55Speaker 2: Anybody can have an Oscar party, but only an idiot
- 2:57Speaker 2: comes up with the Oscar Meyer party.
- 3:00Speaker 8: That's what it was. I was calling it the Oscar
- 3:01Speaker 8: Meyer party.
- 3:02Speaker 2: From the very beginning, our mascot has been Babe. So
- 3:06Speaker 2: here's Babe. All right. Always try to remember to bring
- 3:08Speaker 2: our little babe with us. It's been so long. It's
- 3:11Speaker 2: pretty sad that I have my own babe carrying case
- 3:13Speaker 2: at this point. That's the horrible road I've gone down
- 3:18Speaker 2: in life. Yes, our pork rundown. I try to just
- 3:24Speaker 2: graze over it at this point since it's been going
- 3:26Speaker 2: on for years. For anyone who's not aware, what all
- 3:30Speaker 2: have I thrown in our hors d'oeuvres? We were doing
- 3:33Speaker 2: the rundown earlier. Bologna.
- 3:35Speaker 6: Bologna.
- 3:36Speaker 2: Hot dogs, of course. Pepperoni. Pepperoni. Ham. Ham.
- 3:40Speaker 6: Bacon.
- 3:41Speaker 2: Bacon. I feel like there's something else.
- 3:45Speaker 6: Oh, cocktail wieners.
- 3:45Speaker 2: There you go.
- 3:46Speaker 6: A little smoky action.
- 3:48Speaker 7: A little smoky wiener action.
- 3:51Speaker 2: This is how we roll at the Oscar Mayer party.
- 3:53Speaker 6: And it's all in a blanket.
- 3:53Speaker 7: I always call us wedding wieners because they always have
- 3:55Speaker 7: them at receptions.
- 3:57Speaker 6: Did you wrap all any, were any of them all
- 3:59Speaker 6: of the items in a blanket?
- 4:01Speaker 2: It's kind of hard to do. And they start to
- 4:03Speaker 2: cancel each other out, I feel like. So I try
- 4:06Speaker 2: to just pair up about three each round. And I've
- 4:10Speaker 2: also realized after a while it all just sort of
- 4:12Speaker 2: tastes the same. It's just one big mouthful of pork.
- 4:15Speaker 2: So good luck discerning which is which or something to
- 4:18Speaker 2: that effect.
- 4:20Speaker 8: The last Oscar party I went to, I had the
- 4:22Speaker 8: meat sweats for three days. I'm not joking. It's a
- 4:26Speaker 8: real thing.
- 4:26Speaker 6: I know you're not joking. That's why I'm laughing.
- 4:29Speaker 2: I know you're not joking because I remember hearing about it.
- 4:33Speaker 2: That's how we start each new party is to complain
- 4:35Speaker 2: about the previous parties. I also keep waiting to get
- 4:39Speaker 2: some sort of sponsorship from Pepto-Bismol. That's really what I'm
- 4:42Speaker 2: looking for eventually.
- 4:43Speaker 7: I'm on acid reflux medication this year, so that should help.
- 4:47Speaker 2: You're going to share, I hope. We all need a little.
- 4:49Speaker 7: That's when you know it's a party when the acid
- 4:51Speaker 7: reflux medication is working out.
- 4:52Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. We're pretty awesome.
- 4:53Speaker 7: Don't eat the brown antacid.
- 4:58Speaker 2: It's that kind of party.
- 5:00Speaker 6: All right.
- 5:01Speaker 2: So, look, you see us right here in the middle
- 5:03Speaker 2: of the crowd on the red carpet. So, I mean,
- 5:06Speaker 2: normally at this point you do it, hey, what are
- 5:07Speaker 2: you wearing? But I figure in our case it's what
- 5:10Speaker 2: the hell are you wearing? So, you know, obviously I
- 5:14Speaker 2: busted out the tuxedo once again this year. Not everyone
- 5:16Speaker 2: has a bacon tux. I've also paired it up with
- 5:20Speaker 2: the fancy jeans and these high-end pinstripe chucks that they've
- 5:26Speaker 2: stopped making. So once again, if Converse wants to get
- 5:29Speaker 2: a hold of me, I'd really like you to do
- 5:30Speaker 2: some sort of limited run to bring back some extras
- 5:33Speaker 2: because these are getting pretty worn. So Converse, get a
- 5:37Speaker 2: hold of me is what I'm saying.
- 5:37Speaker 8: Oh, I actually am fancy. I did come prepared. I
- 5:40Speaker 8: know it's not my turn to talk, but my dress
- 5:43Speaker 8: has a built-in cape.
- 5:44Speaker 6: Ooh.
- 5:45Speaker 10: Look at this.
- 5:45Speaker 2: You're assuming my outfit doesn't? I also have a cape.
- 5:49Speaker 11: Oh, wait.
- 5:49Speaker 2: That's a hoodie. Never mind.
- 5:51Speaker 8: Yeah, like a built-in cape.
- 5:52Speaker 4: Look at this.
- 5:52Speaker 6: It's awesome. I love it.
- 5:53Speaker 2: That is pretty fancy.
- 5:54Speaker 8: I got to say.
- 5:56Speaker 2: And you might be a superhero as well.
- 5:59Speaker 8: I can fly. We already tried.
- 6:02Speaker 2: That trip to the emergency room you learned the hard way. So,
- 6:08Speaker 2: anyone else have any fancy outfits you'd like to.
- 6:10Speaker 10: I am wearing a Fruit of the Loom hoodie in blue.
- 6:15Speaker 2: Nice, nice.
- 6:16Speaker 6: And I believe these are Skechers.
- 6:19Speaker 2: Yeah. So you heard it. Hoodies are all the rage
- 6:22Speaker 2: this year.
- 6:23Speaker 6: Hoodies and capes. And my Overlook Hotel t-shirt.
- 6:26Speaker 2: Oh, let me see. It's a different one. I recently
- 6:31Speaker 2: got one. I wanted to make sure we didn't have
- 6:33Speaker 2: to coordinate sometimes so that we don't want to look
- 6:36Speaker 2: like idiots and wear them the same day.
- 6:38Speaker 7: I'm wearing Old Navy and Target. This green Target shirt
- 6:42Speaker 7: I've seen in my death scene in Volumes of Blood.
- 6:45Speaker 2: You are a movie star. I knew I'd seen you somewhere.
- 6:49Speaker 7: I wore a scarf in that scene specifically because PJ
- 6:51Speaker 7: makes fun of me for wearing scarves all the time.
- 6:53Speaker 7: PJ's a bastard. I like him and all.
- 6:55Speaker 2: He's a good guy. We can call him out.
- 6:59Speaker 7: Yeah, it's lovingly ripping off.
- 7:01Speaker 2: I'll probably see him in like a week or so.
- 7:03Speaker 2: I'll tell him I called him a bastard.
- 7:05Speaker 7: He'll wear it with a badge of honor.
- 7:07Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I believe he will.
- 7:09Speaker 7: So what's happening on the Oscars?
- 7:11Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. Occasionally we'll note what's actually going on on
- 7:14Speaker 2: this Oscar show and then we'll just mute them and
- 7:17Speaker 2: go on with our own awards ceremony. But for now,
- 7:20Speaker 2: we're looking at Harley Quinn, the ice skater.
- 7:25Speaker 7: I loved I, Tonya.
- 7:26Speaker 2: I gotta say, I was shocked how much, like, and
- 7:31Speaker 2: we'll get to this later on down the line, but yeah,
- 7:33Speaker 2: it is one of those, like when you heard they
- 7:35Speaker 2: were making it, even when you saw the trailer, you're like, oh, this,
- 7:38Speaker 2: this could go horribly wrong.
- 7:40Speaker 7: What was the inspiration of bringing this?
- 7:42Speaker 2: Maybe a terrible idea. And yet I just recently went
- 7:46Speaker 2: and saw it and I'm like, damn, like they kind
- 7:49Speaker 2: of made it work. It's surprising.
- 7:52Speaker 7: Sebastian Stan's mustache really sold it.
- 7:55Speaker 2: Even he's embarrassed by it.
- 7:57Speaker 7: I didn't even recognize him until, I think, maybe I
- 8:00Speaker 7: went to the bathroom. I looked up on IMDb en
- 8:02Speaker 7: route and saw he was in there. I was like, oh, yeah.
- 8:04Speaker 2: And then he took off his arm. That probably gave
- 8:06Speaker 2: it away.
- 8:08Speaker 7: Who's that with her? It looks like her mom.
- 8:10Speaker 6: I think that's what I was thinking.
- 8:12Speaker 10: It was her mom.
- 8:14Speaker 2: The cool kids always bring their mom to these. I
- 8:18Speaker 2: can't decide how facetious I'm being. Because really, it is
- 8:22Speaker 2: kind of a pretty regular thing.
- 8:24Speaker 8: I mean, the lady looks literally just like her, except older.
- 8:26Speaker 7: That's true. Maybe it's her from the future, though. Yeah.
- 8:30Speaker 2: Now that would be interesting.
- 8:32Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 8:33Speaker 6: I think so.
- 8:34Speaker 7: Come back to help her battle that dancing witch. Or
- 8:38Speaker 7: whatever that thing was.
- 8:39Speaker 5: What?
- 8:40Speaker 8: An I, Tonya?
- 8:41Speaker 7: Oh, Suicide Squad.
- 8:42Speaker 6: Oh, okay.
- 8:44Speaker 7: I never watched it.
- 8:45Speaker 6: You're better off.
- 8:46Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 8:46Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 8:47Speaker 7: Bless you.
- 8:48Speaker 2: Much love was heaped upon it on this show. I
- 8:50Speaker 2: don't know what you're talking about. We would never say
- 8:53Speaker 2: anything bad about a superhero movie. Okay, a DC superhero movie.
- 8:57Speaker 2: Let's be specific.
- 8:59Speaker 8: I'm not a superhero movie kind of guy. I just
- 9:02Speaker 8: call myself a guy.
- 9:03Speaker 7: I was thinking, what is it?
- 9:07Speaker 12: Yeah.
- 9:07Speaker 6: Well, you're not a superhero movie kind of guy.
- 9:11Speaker 2: Are you also going to make an announcement of some sort?
- 9:14Speaker 2: You're using our award ceremony to launch this news.
- 9:17Speaker 6: Right.
- 9:19Speaker 2: Surgery was successful.
- 9:20Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 9:22Speaker 2: Thumbs up.
- 9:25Speaker 8: Nope, I had those removed too.
- 9:27Speaker 2: So what do you all.
- 9:29Speaker 7: Feel should have been nominated for an award tonight that
- 9:33Speaker 7: was looked over?
- 9:34Speaker 6: I'm going to be honest. I saw hardly no movies
- 9:38Speaker 6: last year. Other than the ones that Brian called me
- 9:40Speaker 6: up and said, hey, we're going to talk about this.
- 9:42Speaker 6: You should go see it.
- 9:43Speaker 2: I like assigning movies to other people. What's funny is
- 9:46Speaker 2: that I do it to myself. Like there's tons of stuff.
- 9:49Speaker 2: One I'll go into in about a week or so.
- 9:52Speaker 2: I just watched this weekend for a future episode because
- 9:55Speaker 2: I said, okay, this person, we're going to talk about movie.
- 9:58Speaker 2: What do you want to watch? And then I ended.
- 10:00Speaker 2: assigned myself this movie that i'm like ah damn it
- 10:03Speaker 2: i don't want to watch that so i do it
- 10:05Speaker 2: to myself all the time too i feel like there's
- 10:07Speaker 2: many a time i'll want to watch the nine new
- 10:10Speaker 2: things i decided to buy that are still sitting on
- 10:13Speaker 2: the shelf that i haven't gotten to but instead i'll
- 10:15Speaker 2: watch something ridiculous that we're going to talk about on
- 10:17Speaker 2: the show instead so I just create more weird assigned
- 10:21Speaker 2: movie watching for myself.
- 10:23Speaker 6: Well, I'm glad you called me up and tell me
- 10:25Speaker 6: to go see this and that because otherwise I would
- 10:27Speaker 6: not have known how disappointed I was going to have
- 10:30Speaker 6: been with Justice League.
- 10:34Speaker 9: Oh, DC.
- 10:35Speaker 7: Justice League. I, like, I didn't hate, like, justice league
- 10:39Speaker 7: no i didn't hate it it had elements that worked
- 10:41Speaker 7: for me uh i feel like there was a good
- 10:43Speaker 7: movie in there encrusted in a lot of crap yeah
- 10:47Speaker 7: but uh like i like the wonder woman stuff oh
- 10:49Speaker 7: yeah i think that's kind of what sold me on
- 10:52Speaker 7: it didn't they go back and film more.
- 10:54Speaker 2: Of her stuff after the movie probably after after Zach
- 10:59Speaker 2: got himself out of it.
- 11:00Speaker 7: I like that there was a little bit more humor.
- 11:04Speaker 2: Again, I assume those are the Joss Whedon scenes.
- 11:06Speaker 11: Probably.
- 11:07Speaker 2: I can only assume those are the Joss scenes.
- 11:11Speaker 8: I saw this really funny comic about Shape of Water,
- 11:14Speaker 8: and it was like Guillermo del Toro, and it was like,
- 11:18Speaker 8: someone's like, ew, Guillermo del Toro's a furry. He's like, no, actually,
- 11:22Speaker 8: we're amphibies when it's... Scalies. Yeah, scalies.
- 11:26Speaker 2: Scalies.
- 11:26Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 11:27Speaker 2: He's looking pretty trim.
- 11:29Speaker 6: He looks sharp there.
- 11:30Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 11:31Speaker 2: He's a cool dude. Yeah.
- 11:33Speaker 7: I love that movie.
- 11:34Speaker 2: Is it inappropriate that I just want to hang out
- 11:36Speaker 2: at his house? oh my lord have you not i
- 11:39Speaker 2: mean his house was so amazing that inlet in la
- 11:43Speaker 2: one of the museums i don't remember which one gave
- 11:45Speaker 2: him his own wing to put together at like a
- 11:49Speaker 2: horror movie history tour more or less and it's all
- 11:53Speaker 2: it's all stuff that came out of this house and
- 11:56Speaker 2: it's like huge full-size pieces that like either original from
- 12:01Speaker 2: movies even like going back like it's like old school,
- 12:04Speaker 2: like Frankenstein kind of stuff and Vincent Price kind of stuff.
- 12:07Speaker 2: But like also all the stuff from his movies over
- 12:10Speaker 2: the years. So he filled up an entire wing with
- 12:13Speaker 2: his own personal items. Doug Jones. I know that guy.
- 12:17Speaker 2: Soon to be featured on this very show.
- 12:19Speaker 6: But did you notice how happy he looked to be
- 12:22Speaker 6: on camera?
- 12:23Speaker 2: Well, he's not, he's not encrusted in, you know, latex.
- 12:26Speaker 2: So he's finally like, it's me guys.
- 12:28Speaker 8: It's me.
- 12:29Speaker 2: Look how pretty I am.
- 12:31Speaker 8: So I have a question. So like, Could Doug Jones
- 12:33Speaker 8: be nominated as best actor for his role in Shape
- 12:36Speaker 8: of Water, even though he wasn't technically a human? Say
- 12:39Speaker 8: you play a horse. Can you be nominated for an
- 12:42Speaker 8: Oscar for playing that horse?
- 12:44Speaker 2: How does it work? You'd have to be both sides
- 12:45Speaker 2: of the horse outfit, right? You'd have to nominate. Could
- 12:47Speaker 2: you only nominate.
- 12:49Speaker 6: The ass end of the horse?
- 12:50Speaker 7: The back end would be a supporting actor.
- 12:52Speaker 6: It's all political. Yeah, exactly.
- 12:54Speaker 2: I get it. So I believe you can.
- 12:58Speaker 8: Natalie Portman just jumped to her death.
- 13:00Speaker 2: We're on a commercial though, so.
- 13:02Speaker 6: Yeah, that was breaking news.
- 13:05Speaker 7: If you didn't watch the Oscars, yeah, Natalie's okay.
- 13:09Speaker 10: But I feel like that is how I would learn
- 13:10Speaker 10: about that sort of thing.
- 13:11Speaker 2: She's on top of the pavilion.
- 13:14Speaker 6: That's it, guys.
- 13:14Speaker 2: I've had enough of this shit.
- 13:16Speaker 8: All right. Natalie Portman rap too is so disappointing. I've
- 13:20Speaker 8: got to end it all.
- 13:21Speaker 7: So Keith Urban's coming to the Yum Center? More like
- 13:25Speaker 7: Dome Center.
- 13:28Speaker 8: Where's your drums, Phillip?
- 13:30Speaker 2: I gave myself a high five.
- 13:31Speaker 7: I don't know if y'all saw that.
- 13:32Speaker 6: I don't feel like getting that.
- 13:34Speaker 8: Why is his hair so bad?
- 13:36Speaker 2: It's always been like that.
- 13:37Speaker 8: I know. Like, it's not a hairstyle anymore. It's like,
- 13:41Speaker 8: shave it or something.
- 13:43Speaker 7: I used to work at a screen printing place in
- 13:44Speaker 7: Muhlenberg County and my boss has that haircut now. My
- 13:48Speaker 7: old boss. And he will go to airports and stuff
- 13:51Speaker 7: and take pictures with people because he's trying to actually
- 13:54Speaker 7: look like Keith Urban and pass himself off as Keith Urban.
- 13:56Speaker 7: I mean, people know that it's not him. It's like
- 13:58Speaker 7: a lookalike sort of thing. It's like, Why would you
- 14:00Speaker 7: do that to yourself or your children?
- 14:02Speaker 6: That story goes up and down from being sad to
- 14:05Speaker 6: kind of, okay, that's funny, to kind of cool, then no,
- 14:07Speaker 6: just back to sad.
- 14:08Speaker 7: Oh, no, he sucks.
- 14:09Speaker 2: Back to sad.
- 14:10Speaker 8: I mean, I once saw Dee Snider in a Turkish airport. So,
- 14:14Speaker 8: you know, like you can run into celebrities in airports.
- 14:16Speaker 6: You know, there's a lot of information in that statement
- 14:18Speaker 6: you just made.
- 14:19Speaker 7: I saw Michael Tate from DC talking in an airport once.
- 14:22Speaker 2: I was just standing next to Dee Snider. I was
- 14:25Speaker 2: supposed to be. Does that count? Yeah. I knew I
- 14:27Speaker 2: was going to see him that morning. It's not an accident.
- 14:30Speaker 6: I met Dawkins' road manager in a bar in an
- 14:33Speaker 6: airport one time. He was a very sad-looking man.
- 14:37Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 14:38Speaker 8: If I'm ever going to have a celebrity interaction, it's
- 14:40Speaker 8: always a really awkward and terrible one. I mean, actually,
- 14:44Speaker 8: the one with Dee Snider wasn't. It was just like
- 14:46Speaker 8: people for some reason think it's funny that I saw
- 14:48Speaker 8: him in a Turkish airport.
- 14:49Speaker 2: That's a little weird.
- 14:50Speaker 6: That's something that's strange about it.
- 14:52Speaker 2: I'm just like, I guess. What was he doing there?
- 14:55Speaker 2: I'm guessing I know what you were doing there.
- 14:58Speaker 8: The Ataturk is.
- 14:58Speaker 2: Drugs. Smuggling drugs. But what was he doing there? Because
- 15:03Speaker 2: he's on the up and up now. He's a Broadway superstar.
- 15:06Speaker 8: Probably just a layover at airport, honestly. Probably took Turkish
- 15:09Speaker 8: Airlines business class.
- 15:11Speaker 2: One of his other... Yeah, he's got about 12 things
- 15:14Speaker 2: going anymore. And one of them was like a... I
- 15:17Speaker 2: don't know if it was full-on Broadway or if it
- 15:19Speaker 2: was like an off-Broadway thing. But it was a full
- 15:21Speaker 2: Broadway production thing. style of show that he had written
- 15:25Speaker 2: and come up with he's leading.
- 15:26Speaker 7: Spider-man turn off the dark right hey i don't know
- 15:29Speaker 7: that anybody wants he's.
- 15:30Speaker 8: An actor slash director of that movie strangeland yes does.
- 15:33Speaker 7: He still didn't he do like a satellite radio show
- 15:35Speaker 7: or something yeah he's got that.
- 15:36Speaker 2: Again he's got a lot of jobs like he's he's
- 15:39Speaker 2: a pretty amazing dude.
- 15:40Speaker 8: Who's that he's like the reason that uh uh He
- 15:46Speaker 8: like fought, didn't he fight against Tipper Gore or some shit?
- 15:49Speaker 2: Oh yeah. He was the one that at that time,
- 15:51Speaker 2: all the other, all the other metal losers were just
- 15:55Speaker 2: kind of idiots and like didn't have anything to bring
- 15:57Speaker 2: to the table. He showed up. What I thought was
- 16:00Speaker 2: impressive was he showed up to, like, Supreme Court or
- 16:02Speaker 2: wherever the hell he had to, like, testify.
- 16:04Speaker 6: Congress.
- 16:05Speaker 2: In his, like, ripped jeans.
- 16:06Speaker 6: In his rocker gear.
- 16:07Speaker 2: And his black t-shirt and, like, his sleeveless denim vest
- 16:10Speaker 2: and was like.
- 16:11Speaker 6: Well, the best part is he pulls his speech out
- 16:13Speaker 6: of his back pocket where it's all folded up.
- 16:15Speaker 2: But then his speech is fucking amazing. Like, he's smart.
- 16:19Speaker 6: And then he gets into an argument with Al Gore.
- 16:21Speaker 6: That's my favorite.
- 16:22Speaker 2: We've all wanted to do that.
- 16:23Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 16:23Speaker 8: If I have one regret, it's not going up to
- 16:25Speaker 8: Dee Snider in the Ataturk Airport and thanking him for
- 16:28Speaker 8: what he's done.
- 16:29Speaker 2: We all should. He's a pretty amazing dude. I didn't
- 16:32Speaker 2: know we were going to go so into Dee Snider
- 16:34Speaker 2: on the Oscar coverage.
- 16:35Speaker 7: Okay, I have a question. Right now we're looking at
- 16:37Speaker 7: the kids from Call Me By Your Name. Does he
- 16:39Speaker 7: not look like Josh from Drake and Josh?
- 16:42Speaker 8: Yes, I was like, why is Josh from Drake and
- 16:44Speaker 8: Josh here?
- 16:45Speaker 6: He does.
- 16:46Speaker 8: No, like if you're just glancing at him, I was
- 16:48Speaker 8: just like, how did Josh get younger?
- 16:49Speaker 2: That's not what I was thinking.
- 16:51Speaker 6: Did he bring his room too?
- 16:53Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 16:53Speaker 2: Well, he is like 12.
- 16:55Speaker 8: He's like nine years old.
- 16:56Speaker 10: For some reason, I don't know, the Margot Robbie bringing
- 16:59Speaker 10: her mom seems sweeter than him bringing.
- 17:03Speaker 2: Well, she was his ride.
- 17:05Speaker 7: He's just into older women. He was in Lady Bird
- 17:09Speaker 7: as well.
- 17:10Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 17:11Speaker 7: He's an up and up.
- 17:12Speaker 2: He was a cool dude in Lady Bird.
- 17:14Speaker 8: So he's in two Oscar nominated movies?
- 17:15Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 17:16Speaker 8: Is it like his first year big acting?
- 17:19Speaker 2: He's a big shot this year.
- 17:20Speaker 8: That's crazy.
- 17:21Speaker 7: I just watched Lady Bird today.
- 17:22Speaker 2: Speaking of Lady Bird, there she is. Yeah, there she is.
- 17:24Speaker 7: Miss Sushi Rohan.
- 17:26Speaker 8: Sushi Rohan.
- 17:27Speaker 2: Sushi Rohan. for sure i do this every week occasionally
- 17:33Speaker 2: i learn how to say stumble i am the worst
- 17:35Speaker 2: trying to pronounce these people's names what's her name but
- 17:37Speaker 2: eventually i'll look at it and find it out and
- 17:40Speaker 2: learn it enough and i can say sorceronin without thinking.
- 17:42Speaker 7: About it so siri rohan.
- 17:44Speaker 2: Unless sometimes it's like nine years later and they go
- 17:46Speaker 2: yeah you guys have been saying my name wrong all
- 17:48Speaker 2: this time so those throw me off and i'll still
- 17:51Speaker 2: say it the old way probably but it's bra bra
- 17:56Speaker 2: She is amazing, though. I really hated the Lovely Bones.
- 17:58Speaker 2: Everything I've seen her in, I've been impressed.
- 18:00Speaker 8: That movie was a shit show.
- 18:01Speaker 7: Hannah was so good.
- 18:02Speaker 2: But even then, everybody's like, well, she was really good
- 18:05Speaker 2: in it, but she doesn't have much of a part,
- 18:08Speaker 2: so all this other nonsense going on in Lovely Bones.
- 18:11Speaker 7: You all saw Hannah, right?
- 18:13Speaker 2: I did, and she was a badass there, too.
- 18:16Speaker 7: How old was she in that movie? She was like
- 18:17Speaker 7: 12 or something.
- 18:18Speaker 2: She's still pretty young. She's another one that weirds me
- 18:21Speaker 2: out when I hear her real voice. I'm so used
- 18:23Speaker 2: to all these American roles that now I hear.
- 18:26Speaker 8: Is she not American?
- 18:28Speaker 6: She's got like a Scottish working man's voice. Oh, weird. Crikey.
- 18:37Speaker 8: I didn't expect that.
- 18:38Speaker 6: Well, her teeth are so nice.
- 18:41Speaker 2: That's how she got to Hollywood. They wouldn't let you
- 18:42Speaker 2: in if you didn't have that. They'd kick you right out.
- 18:45Speaker 8: In your teeth.
- 18:47Speaker 2: Matthew McConaughey.
- 18:48Speaker 8: Oh, man. That's a cool dress. It looks like a
- 18:50Speaker 8: wedding dress, though. They're like double Oscar slash wedding.
- 18:54Speaker 6: For God's sake, shave. You're going to be on TV.
- 18:57Speaker 2: No, it's my thing, man. It's my thing.
- 19:00Speaker 7: He's just living.
- 19:01Speaker 8: Matthew McConaughey does strike me as a person. I'm sure
- 19:04Speaker 8: that's probably his wife already. But if he would be like,
- 19:08Speaker 8: all right, everybody's here and they're dressed all fancy. Let's
- 19:10Speaker 8: make this a wedding slash Oscar. He would do that.
- 19:14Speaker 8: He's the kind of guy.
- 19:15Speaker 2: I think they've been together a while because I've seen
- 19:17Speaker 2: him with her for years now.
- 19:18Speaker 7: Is she a famous person of some sort? No, I
- 19:20Speaker 7: don't think so. Good on you, Matt.
- 19:23Speaker 2: I think she just ended up with Matthew McConaughey. Many
- 19:27Speaker 2: people probably at some point would have, but now he's
- 19:29Speaker 2: all taken and stuff.
- 19:31Speaker 8: How did this lady from fucking Reno 911 get to
- 19:35Speaker 8: host the Oscars?
- 19:36Speaker 6: I'm curious about that too.
- 19:38Speaker 8: Like, I love this lady. I don't know her name.
- 19:40Speaker 6: She's great, but I haven't seen her in anything.
- 19:42Speaker 8: I want to say her name's like Jennifer or something. Susan.
- 19:46Speaker 2: Isn't she the mom on the Goldbergs?
- 19:49Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 19:50Speaker 2: This is an ABC show. They don't go outside. Well,
- 19:56Speaker 2: they're not going to pay somebody else on a different network.
- 19:58Speaker 7: Did everybody enjoy The Big Sick?
- 20:01Speaker 8: I watched three quarters of it.
- 20:04Speaker 2: Or two.
- 20:04Speaker 7: No.
- 20:04Speaker 2: 30% of it.
- 20:09Speaker 7: I really liked it.
- 20:10Speaker 8: It wasn't bad. I just fell asleep.
- 20:12Speaker 6: That's still not a screaming recommendation.
- 20:20Speaker 7: That's going on the poster.
- 20:22Speaker 2: I fall right into that category. I have slept through
- 20:25Speaker 2: some of the finest films. And it's no knock on
- 20:27Speaker 2: the films. I just can't stay awake.
- 20:29Speaker 7: Kumail is one of my eyebrow role models. Because I
- 20:31Speaker 7: have big eyebrows too. In case the listeners don't know.
- 20:35Speaker 7: I'll rub them on the mic now.
- 20:37Speaker 2: God, I have to get a new microphone.
- 20:41Speaker 7: They've officially been blessed, your mic shield. But no, he's funny.
- 20:46Speaker 7: I really, really appreciate that movie. Anything that can give
- 20:49Speaker 7: me more Ray Romano, I'm okay with.
- 20:53Speaker 8: Ray Romano's in it?
- 20:55Speaker 7: Come on, everybody loves Raymond.
- 20:57Speaker 2: No, no.
- 20:58Speaker 8: Oh, okay.
- 20:59Speaker 2: At this point, he's turned his life around and he's
- 21:02Speaker 2: trying to be like a real actor and almost... Some
- 21:06Speaker 2: of the people have forgotten about that ridiculous sitcom. I
- 21:09Speaker 2: was not on board in the sitcom days. Well, some
- 21:12Speaker 2: people live and die by the things that are on
- 21:15Speaker 2: at four o'clock every day.
- 21:17Speaker 7: It's Lin-Manuel Miranda. I think he just did a great job.
- 21:20Speaker 7: If anybody listens to My Brother, My Brother and Me,
- 21:22Speaker 7: that's my friend's podcast. I love him.
- 21:23Speaker 8: He's so like.
- 21:24Speaker 2: Oh, girl.
- 21:26Speaker 8: He's so like willing to do anything. That's what I
- 21:28Speaker 8: love about Lin-Manuel Miranda.
- 21:30Speaker 2: Our dear friend Jennifer Lawrence is there.
- 21:32Speaker 7: I just listened to her WTF today.
- 21:35Speaker 8: I thought.
- 21:36Speaker 2: See, so there's two podcasts she's been on, but that's it.
- 21:40Speaker 2: Not many people can suck her into a podcast. I'm
- 21:43Speaker 2: pretty proud of that.
- 21:44Speaker 8: I mean, that is quite an accomplishment. She's the Belle
- 21:48Speaker 8: of Louisville.
- 21:50Speaker 2: Hollywood at this point. Belle of Louisville's a boat. Yeah,
- 21:54Speaker 2: I mean, nobody wants to claim this town, but the
- 21:57Speaker 2: fact that she's one of the highest paid actors in
- 22:00Speaker 2: Hollywood is kind of more impressive, really. Even she doesn't
- 22:04Speaker 2: want to acknowledge this town.
- 22:07Speaker 7: I'm excited for Red Sparrow, though. I think it looks
- 22:09Speaker 7: kind of good.
- 22:10Speaker 8: Someone told me it was really good. You know, I
- 22:12Speaker 8: really like Joel Edgerton a lot.
- 22:14Speaker 2: Same.
- 22:15Speaker 8: We watched It Comes at Night the other day, and
- 22:17Speaker 8: I thought that was really, really good. I didn't fall
- 22:19Speaker 8: asleep at all.
- 22:19Speaker 2: Have you watched... But that's no statement on me.
- 22:22Speaker 7: That's like your star scale.
- 22:23Speaker 2: Have you watched Bright?
- 22:25Speaker 6: What is it?
- 22:25Speaker 2: Bright?
- 22:26Speaker 7: Oh, right.
- 22:26Speaker 8: Bright, uh-uh. What's that one?
- 22:28Speaker 2: You might not recognize him, but he's really good in it.
- 22:31Speaker 7: He plays an orc cop.
- 22:33Speaker 6: An orc cop?
- 22:35Speaker 2: Yep.
- 22:35Speaker 6: That's good.
- 22:36Speaker 7: It's pretty.
- 22:37Speaker 2: It was pretty overrated.
- 22:40Speaker 6: I'm just gonna put it out there.
- 22:41Speaker 2: I was impressed. Did you actually watch it all? Yeah. See,
- 22:44Speaker 2: that's the thing. I heard so much bad stuff that
- 22:47Speaker 2: I got in, I was like... Again, I didn't hate it,
- 22:49Speaker 2: but they put.
- 22:51Speaker 6: too much into one movie they had it going in
- 22:53Speaker 6: too many different directions I.
- 22:55Speaker 2: Was okay with it just because I felt like they
- 22:57Speaker 2: just sort of touched on all that stuff they didn't
- 22:59Speaker 2: focus on anything except the basic cop story really and
- 23:03Speaker 2: there's all this other weird stuff in the background that
- 23:05Speaker 2: I'm equally as interested in but I feel like they're
- 23:07Speaker 2: just planning it.
- 23:08Speaker 6: Out yeah they're setting it up for a series which
- 23:10Speaker 6: is fine But I never knew which direction I was
- 23:13Speaker 6: supposed to go in.
- 23:14Speaker 7: I got to where he destroyed the ferry. And I
- 23:17Speaker 7: was like, meh.
- 23:18Speaker 2: That was only like two minutes.
- 23:20Speaker 7: He's like, ferry lives matter.
- 23:22Speaker 2: That I did on the episode. I squirmed too hard.
- 23:25Speaker 2: I discussed that. By far the worst line in the
- 23:28Speaker 2: entire movie, and seems really inappropriate coming from a black actor,
- 23:31Speaker 2: but whatever.
- 23:32Speaker 8: I don't understand why Oprah's in this movie.
- 23:34Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like Oprah is too Oprah.
- 23:36Speaker 6: She's friends with the director.
- 23:37Speaker 2: She backed it. Yeah, she probably did, actually.
- 23:40Speaker 7: At this point, Oprah is too Oprah to be in movies,
- 23:42Speaker 7: I think.
- 23:43Speaker 2: Yeah, kind of. But then that's true with all of these.
- 23:45Speaker 7: She doesn't blend into any kind of role, I don't think.
- 23:48Speaker 2: None of these people really seem like they fit in
- 23:50Speaker 2: this movie.
- 23:51Speaker 11: No.
- 23:51Speaker 2: I just look at it and go, aren't you Reese Witherspoon?
- 23:54Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 23:54Speaker 2: You look like Reese Witherspoon.
- 23:56Speaker 6: The kids seem okay.
- 23:58Speaker 2: Actually, I've seen interviews with that little girl and she
- 24:01Speaker 2: seems awesome. I'm like, oh, she's going to be an
- 24:03Speaker 2: amazing actress. But now she's stuck doing this kind of stuff.
- 24:06Speaker 6: The trailer, the whole time it's, oh, it's.
- 24:10Speaker 2: Zach, look, he's not really in character at all. He's
- 24:12Speaker 2: just being goofy Zach. Yeah.
- 24:18Speaker 7: I've never read that book.
- 24:20Speaker 2: It's one of those, again, back to my running theme
- 24:23Speaker 2: of not reading books. Even as a kid, I think
- 24:26Speaker 2: I remember going to the library at school and checking
- 24:29Speaker 2: it out because, this will be no surprise, I really
- 24:32Speaker 2: liked the cool artwork on the cover because I was
- 24:35Speaker 2: always a sucker for cool sci-fi artwork on the cover
- 24:39Speaker 2: of books. Didn't want to read any of them. So, yeah,
- 24:42Speaker 2: I think I checked it out and then took it
- 24:44Speaker 2: back in a couple of weeks or whatever. I did
- 24:46Speaker 2: stick with the due date. There were no fines involved, guys.
- 24:48Speaker 7: It's okay.
- 24:49Speaker 10: Good.
- 24:49Speaker 2: Didn't read it, guess what? I still don't know how
- 24:51Speaker 2: that movie goes.
- 24:52Speaker 8: I just don't even check books out from the library
- 24:54Speaker 8: because I'm like so mad.
- 24:55Speaker 7: You steal them?
- 24:56Speaker 2: Directly into your bag?
- 24:57Speaker 7: You guys are breaking my heart. I know.
- 24:59Speaker 8: I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
- 25:00Speaker 2: I checked them out. I went by the rules. I
- 25:04Speaker 2: had to get involved to make sure people read them too.
- 25:07Speaker 8: Let me clarify. I don't steal them. I forget to
- 25:10Speaker 8: return them and then get a fine so large I
- 25:12Speaker 8: can never repay it and go back to the library.
- 25:15Speaker 2: That's why you left the state. I knew it.
- 25:18Speaker 8: No, I take the books back eventually. Except for the
- 25:20Speaker 8: ones I.
- 25:21Speaker 2: Took from the UofL library. After the library cop tracks
- 25:23Speaker 2: you down. I've seen this episode.
- 25:25Speaker 8: Yeah, I still have some books I.
- 25:26Speaker 7: Got from the UofL library. I got to launch my
- 25:28Speaker 7: library policeman app.
- 25:30Speaker 2: Yeah, he's here as a mole. He's been sent here
- 25:33Speaker 2: just to track you down. For those of you who
- 25:35Speaker 2: don't know at home, someone's got connections to the library.
- 25:38Speaker 8: The library at UofL. I'll let them know I still
- 25:40Speaker 8: have books.
- 25:41Speaker 2: About Chinese socialism.
- 25:42Speaker 7: You owe me a nickel.
- 25:48Speaker 12: Never return it back to the library.
- 25:50Speaker 2: Oh, they're coming for you.
- 25:51Speaker 6: Well, there is a book that I kept from my
- 25:54Speaker 6: school library, but it was meant as like a fuck
- 25:56Speaker 6: you for reasons I don't remember.
- 26:00Speaker 2: So really important reasons that I don't remember.
- 26:02Speaker 6: It is a stupid book.
- 26:03Speaker 7: Tell me I can't chew gum.
- 26:03Speaker 6: I have it on the shelf.
- 26:05Speaker 2: It's over here somewhere.
- 26:07Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 26:09Speaker 6: I just remember being really mad at the seventh grade library.
- 26:12Speaker 7: It was the Gutenberg Bible.
- 26:14Speaker 8: I took this. So in seventh grade, I took this book.
- 26:18Speaker 8: It was a book of poetry. It was Come Hither
- 26:21Speaker 8: by Walter Delamere. It was like a collection of other
- 26:23Speaker 8: people's work. And I loved that fucking book. It was
- 26:26Speaker 8: like so dog-eared and like highlighted. And I lost it
- 26:30Speaker 8: at some point. But like I remember checking it out.
- 26:32Speaker 8: But then they were never like, hey, return this book.
- 26:34Speaker 8: So I just never did. Like I think the library
- 26:38Speaker 8: like flooded or something. Did the library flood at some point?
- 26:41Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 26:41Speaker 2: So you saved the book because it wasn't in the library, right?
- 26:45Speaker 6: You're a hero.
- 26:45Speaker 8: I feel like there was a computer glitch and it
- 26:48Speaker 8: never made me return the book.
- 26:49Speaker 6: That's sort of Marlena's story from the old days that
- 26:52Speaker 6: I don't hear that often anymore. I know. Things are
- 26:54Speaker 6: going fine. It's not that exciting. All of a sudden, tragedy.
- 26:58Speaker 6: Wait a second.
- 26:58Speaker 7: What's Celebrity Street Fights with Mario Lopez?
- 27:01Speaker 11: Oh, God.
- 27:03Speaker 7: Is it going to be like a bum fight scene?
- 27:05Speaker 2: It's like a comedy intro.
- 27:07Speaker 8: What was she even in that was nominated?
- 27:09Speaker 6: I don't think she was.
- 27:09Speaker 2: She wasn't nominated.
- 27:11Speaker 7: I think this is Oscar's lame attempt to be funny.
- 27:14Speaker 2: Yeah, they're trying. They're trying really hard.
- 27:17Speaker 8: They got jokes.
- 27:19Speaker 6: I don't like this. This is making me feel really uncomfortable.
- 27:24Speaker 8: That's supposed to be funny, but I'm just like.
- 27:25Speaker 7: Oh, it's Jimmy Kimmel.
- 27:28Speaker 6: Oh, well, there's your problem. That explains everything.
- 27:31Speaker 2: This is why the jokes aren't landing. Jimmy Kimmel.
- 27:34Speaker 5: Right.
- 27:35Speaker 8: I love that he tries to be this like.
- 27:38Speaker 8: I don't like hate Jimmy Kimmel and I don't usually
- 27:40Speaker 8: like super duper disagree with stuff that he says, but
- 27:43Speaker 8: I'm just like, uh, I love how he like, we'll
- 27:46Speaker 8: talk about like women's issues. I'm just like, you were
- 27:49Speaker 8: the perpetrator of the man show.
- 27:52Speaker 2: Do you not? I mean, we all remember the man show, but. Trampoline?
- 27:56Speaker 2: Does that bring back memories? Jackass?
- 28:00Speaker 8: I'm like, hey, thanks for fighting for my rights, Jimmy Kimmel.
- 28:04Speaker 2: I like naked girls more than most people, but no,
- 28:07Speaker 2: you're still a jackass. I'm sorry. That's an offensive show.
- 28:10Speaker 8: More than most people? A little more than.
- 28:14Speaker 2: All right. I have a problem is what I'm saying,
- 28:16Speaker 2: but it's not the point. Jimmy Kimmel's a jackass. That's
- 28:20Speaker 2: my point.
- 28:21Speaker 7: First you're confessing library funds and now this.
- 28:24Speaker 6: I know.
- 28:25Speaker 2: Newsflash, I like naked girls.
- 28:28Speaker 8: Is there like a scale?
- 28:30Speaker 5: Yes.
- 28:31Speaker 2: It's just like, I.
- 28:32Speaker 8: Like naked girls like 70%.
- 28:35Speaker 2: More than normal.
- 28:36Speaker 8: Brian's like 99. 99%.
- 28:39Speaker 6: I like him a lot.
- 28:41Speaker 8: That's what I'm saying.
- 28:42Speaker 6: Brian and I have never discussed what our percentage is.
- 28:46Speaker 7: Before I came in, I snorted cocaine off my Prius.
- 28:49Speaker 6: I mean, we just.
- 28:50Speaker 2: Whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait a minute. What kind of party
- 28:53Speaker 2: is this now?
- 28:55Speaker 7: I don't know.
- 28:55Speaker 2: Not really.
- 28:55Speaker 7: I just wanted to have a story, too.
- 29:00Speaker 5: Oh.
- 29:01Speaker 2: This is all still better than Jimmy Kimmel.
- 29:03Speaker 7: I'd like to point out right now that I'm not
- 29:04Speaker 7: here in any official capacity for my employers.
- 29:07Speaker 6: I wonder if anyone has ever snorted cocaine off the
- 29:10Speaker 6: hood of a Prius.
- 29:11Speaker 2: Well, the hood's kind of slow.
- 29:12Speaker 7: Probably not. It would have to be the top. I'm
- 29:15Speaker 7: not saying that I know this from experience.
- 29:17Speaker 2: I'm not saying I've done it many, many nights.
- 29:20Speaker 7: It's more efficient to snort it off a Prius.
- 29:23Speaker 6: I would think off the dash, really.
- 29:25Speaker 7: Yeah, that would be doable. So you guys think Jimmy
- 29:28Speaker 7: Kimmel's had work done?
- 29:30Speaker 2: I wish he'd have his mouth sewn shut. His face
- 29:33Speaker 2: doesn't do much. Only because he's not funny. Where is
- 29:36Speaker 2: Dee Snider when you need him?
- 29:37Speaker 6: Yeah, really.
- 29:38Speaker 2: It's back to Dee Snider.
- 29:40Speaker 8: We need Dee Snider to host this.
- 29:41Speaker 2: I would love that. I would line up for that
- 29:45Speaker 2: right now.
- 29:46Speaker 8: I would settle for Sebastian Bach.
- 29:50Speaker 2: No.
- 29:51Speaker 6: But I would watch Tony Danza do it. Hell yeah.
- 29:53Speaker 2: That's actually not bad. Why don't they throw that out?
- 29:55Speaker 8: Let's make a petition.
- 29:56Speaker 6: I don't know.
- 29:57Speaker 2: We're just going to start making a list of better
- 29:58Speaker 2: hosts for the Oscars.
- 30:00Speaker 6: Change.org.
- 30:00Speaker 7: I know it's not a movie, but I wish they
- 30:02Speaker 7: could just bring Who's the Boss back and maybe give
- 30:03Speaker 7: it an Oscar or something.
- 30:04Speaker 2: They could. After our recent Lady in White episode, I
- 30:08Speaker 2: was midway in, and Katherine Hellman's in that, and I'm
- 30:11Speaker 2: just like, good Lord, she's old then. Like, how old?
- 30:13Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 30:14Speaker 2: How many years ago did she die? She's still alive. Like,
- 30:17Speaker 2: she's still alive.
- 30:17Speaker 6: The grandma?
- 30:18Speaker 2: Yeah. Mona is still alive. There's a picture of the
- 30:22Speaker 2: whole cast from last year that was in People or something.
- 30:25Speaker 8: I'm like, good lord.
- 30:27Speaker 6: Yeah, exactly.
- 30:28Speaker 7: I wanted Netflix.
- 30:28Speaker 8: What did she mean on that show?
- 30:30Speaker 2: No, she was horny on that show.
- 30:31Speaker 6: She was free spirit.
- 30:31Speaker 2: Oh, okay. She was dumb on Soap, then she became
- 30:34Speaker 2: horny on Who's the Boss, and then she's just a
- 30:36Speaker 2: weirdo in everything else that, like, all of her movie
- 30:40Speaker 2: efforts over the years. Because they're usually... I confused her.
- 30:43Speaker 8: With that lady that was in Pushing Daisies. What's the
- 30:46Speaker 8: red-haired aunt from Pushing Daisies? Do you remember the name.
- 30:50Speaker 6: Of the lady? Oh, Swoozie Kurtz.
- 30:52Speaker 2: Yes.
- 30:52Speaker 8: I don't know why I confused her with her.
- 30:54Speaker 7: She's not too far off.
- 30:56Speaker 2: She'd probably be insulted because I think she's a little
- 30:58Speaker 2: younger than her. But in general, they're the similar type.
- 31:01Speaker 8: I think they both have red hair, maybe.
- 31:02Speaker 2: Old ladies is old ladies. I get what you're saying.
- 31:05Speaker 8: Yeah, we were just talking about how I don't know
- 31:06Speaker 8: the difference between Last of the Mohicans and Dances with Wolves.
- 31:10Speaker 8: I get them confused.
- 31:12Speaker 2: I want to.
- 31:14Speaker 6: Say something that's really embarrassing for you right now.
- 31:19Speaker 2: I mean, there's so much to pull from.
- 31:21Speaker 8: I don't mean for that to sound offensive. I just remember... No,
- 31:25Speaker 8: and I.
- 31:26Speaker 6: Don't take offense to it. I meant to say it
- 31:28Speaker 6: as a comparative statement, but I realized it was mean,
- 31:30Speaker 6: so I'm not going to do it.
- 31:31Speaker 2: I just assumed you were going to tell her to
- 31:33Speaker 2: stay alive. Go ahead.
- 31:34Speaker 6: Yeah, stay alive, no matter what occurs, and we will
- 31:36Speaker 6: find you, but.
- 31:38Speaker 2: If I had a nickel for how many times Philip
- 31:41Speaker 2: told me that, at any point in the outing, when
- 31:44Speaker 2: we would part ways.
- 31:45Speaker 6: He would look at me and say, Stay alive, no
- 31:48Speaker 6: matter what occurs, and I will find you.
- 31:50Speaker 2: I will find you!
- 31:51Speaker 8: Is that Last of the Mokikos?
- 31:53Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 31:53Speaker 6: I don't remember anything else about that movie.
- 31:55Speaker 2: That's kind of the only thing I know about it.
- 31:57Speaker 2: And I only know it because it was told to
- 31:58Speaker 2: me on a regular basis.
- 32:00Speaker 6: We had to watch it in English class because the
- 32:04Speaker 6: teacher felt like us actually reading Nathaniel Hawthorne was too
- 32:08Speaker 6: taxing and she was probably right.
- 32:10Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 32:11Speaker 7: Okay, I had to get Tony Danza joke. Tell me
- 32:15Speaker 7: what you think of this one. When the OA came out,
- 32:17Speaker 7: I said that they should have put him in the
- 32:19Speaker 7: cast and call it the AO OA.
- 32:20Speaker 2: All right, well, we're wrapping up now.
- 32:24Speaker 6: I got it, I got it.
- 32:25Speaker 7: It's been a good run. Thank you, thank you.
- 32:26Speaker 2: We haven't gotten to the orge yet.
- 32:28Speaker 7: Thank you, I'll be here all week on the porch.
- 32:31Speaker 2: Much to Phillip's dismay.
- 32:32Speaker 6: I don't know, you know, I mean.
- 32:34Speaker 2: We'll just step over you every morning after work, you know.
- 32:37Speaker 7: Bitch sex joke, Tom.
- 32:39Speaker 6: I have not seen that either. I'm just, like I
- 32:42Speaker 6: said earlier, I haven't seen any of these movies except
- 32:45Speaker 6: for Last Jedi.
- 32:46Speaker 2: The Oscars don't matter. It's just what wins foilers.
- 32:49Speaker 7: I love Sally Hawkins.
- 32:50Speaker 8: That's why he took Lydia to see the Paddington movie
- 32:52Speaker 8: and it has the Shape of Water lady and he
- 32:54Speaker 8: was just like, oh.
- 32:55Speaker 12: You go shape water for the monster and you stay
- 32:58Speaker 12: for the masturbation.
- 32:59Speaker 10: Right.
- 33:00Speaker 2: Don't worry. There's full on sex, dude. Yeah.
- 33:02Speaker 6: Fantastic.
- 33:04Speaker 2: With an animal of some sort.
- 33:06Speaker 8: In Paddington, yes.
- 33:07Speaker 2: So much.
- 33:09Speaker 8: It's just like Shape of Water could have been a
- 33:11Speaker 8: pretty all-ages movie. Except most of it was inappropriate.
- 33:18Speaker 7: I really appreciate the boldness.
- 33:20Speaker 2: Do you not remember the horrible gore scenes as well?
- 33:23Speaker 6: If people had mentioned these things to me, I would
- 33:26Speaker 6: have been, this is another one of those movies that
- 33:28Speaker 6: I'm like, People are like, oh, you gotta go see it.
- 33:30Speaker 6: What's it about? Oh, dude, you just gotta go see it.
- 33:32Speaker 6: I can't tell you. But if they mention stuff like
- 33:34Speaker 6: vigorous masturbation, fish.
- 33:36Speaker 2: Sex, fingers falling off, these are all great reasons to
- 33:39Speaker 2: see a movie.
- 33:40Speaker 7: So Paddington masturbates?
- 33:42Speaker 2: Yes. Keep your fantasies out of this.
- 33:44Speaker 6: So if any of the people who told me I
- 33:46Speaker 6: need to go see it but didn't tell me why
- 33:48Speaker 6: are listening, you can all just go straight to hell.
- 33:50Speaker 2: They were bound to.
- 33:51Speaker 7: The only reason you need to go see it is
- 33:53Speaker 7: Guillermo del Toro.
- 33:55Speaker 6: But I didn't even know he directed it until like
- 33:58Speaker 6: two days ago.
- 33:58Speaker 2: I'm going to have to send out the newsletters a
- 34:01Speaker 2: little faster.
- 34:03Speaker 7: I love pretty much everything he's made. I wasn't crazy
- 34:05Speaker 7: about Crimson Peak.
- 34:08Speaker 2: I'm okay with Crimson Peak.
- 34:10Speaker 7: I didn't hate it.
- 34:12Speaker 6: Why are they giving away a jet ski?
- 34:14Speaker 2: I don't know, but I'll watch Helen Mirren.
- 34:16Speaker 8: I was going to say, is that Helen Mirren? Also,
- 34:18Speaker 8: can we just take a second to be like, Helen Mirren,
- 34:20Speaker 8: what the fuck? What the fuck with the house movie?
- 34:24Speaker 6: Pfft. What is it?
- 34:26Speaker 2: Did you watch Winchester?
- 34:28Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 34:28Speaker 2: Oh, I didn't see it. I couldn't decide. Like the trailer,
- 34:30Speaker 2: I was like, this could be really awesome and cheesy
- 34:33Speaker 2: fun or just a train wreck. And I couldn't decide
- 34:35Speaker 2: where it fell.
- 34:36Speaker 8: I was hoping for something that was like reminiscent of
- 34:39Speaker 8: both Crimson Peak and The Conjuring, but it was neither.
- 34:44Speaker 8: I mean, it wasn't terrible. It wasn't like the worst
- 34:46Speaker 8: horror movie I've ever seen. I'm sure I'll watch it
- 34:48Speaker 8: when it hits the fancy red box or something. It
- 34:50Speaker 8: was like not a Helen Mirren movie, if that makes
- 34:53Speaker 8: any sense.
- 34:53Speaker 2: Yeah, but she does a lot of other stuff now too. Yeah.
- 34:56Speaker 7: I could watch Red 1 and 2.
- 34:58Speaker 6: Sometimes you need a new car Sometimes you need a
- 35:01Speaker 6: jet ski.
- 35:01Speaker 2: Alright I think it's snack break time So let's all
- 35:06Speaker 2: go reload.
- 35:07Speaker 6: That was weird You can't all go at the same
- 35:11Speaker 6: time I'm so excited that Mary Poppins is back I
- 35:14Speaker 6: have to balance this shit.
- 35:15Speaker 7: What's going on have they made a sequel to Mary
- 35:17Speaker 7: Poppins Yeah Mary Poppins Returns And I bet it's probably
- 35:20Speaker 7: going to have that Rihanna song in it Umbrella.
- 35:26Speaker 13: You have my heart And we'll never be worlds apart
- 35:30Speaker 13: Maybe in magazines But you'll still be my star Maybe
- 35:36Speaker 13: cause in the dark You can see shiny cars That's

- 36:28Speaker 1: It's intermission time.
- 36:30Speaker 4: So how about taking a break, get out and stretch
- 36:33Speaker 4: a little and relax before the show begins again.
- 36:36Speaker 8: And why not make it refreshment time, too?
- 36:38Speaker 11: Oh, I'd love to be an Oscar Mayer wiener.
- 36:43Speaker 9: That is what I truly like to be.
- 36:46Speaker 3: Because if I were an Oscar Mayer.
- 36:48Speaker 9: Wiener, everyone would be in love with me.
- 36:53Speaker 8: Who gives drive-thru milkshakes and glass glasses?
- 36:58Speaker 2: Yeah, and who doesn't put a lid on it? So
- 37:01Speaker 2: her sneeze guard would have been there and none of
- 37:03Speaker 2: that would have happened, so.
- 37:05Speaker 8: Right. I don't know about this. Yeah, that commercial was dumb.
- 37:10Speaker 8: I refuse to believe that.
- 37:11Speaker 6: How can such a pretty wife make such bad coffee?
- 37:15Speaker 6: I heard that.
- 37:18Speaker 5: Judy, what brings you over?
- 37:19Speaker 2: Oh, Mrs.
- 37:20Speaker 8: Olsen, Frank craved.
- 37:21Speaker 6: About my coffee again.
- 37:23Speaker 2: Oh, is coffee a problem?
- 37:24Speaker 6: Sure is. I can't make good coffee.
- 37:27Speaker 5: Good coffee's no problem.
- 37:29Speaker 3: If you use the coffee with better flavor.
- 37:31Speaker 8: That makes me think of a particular coffee shop in
- 37:34Speaker 8: town because we're not advertising, right?
- 37:36Speaker 2: It depends. Is it Heine Brothers?
- 37:38Speaker 8: It's Heine Brothers.
- 37:38Speaker 2: Because of the few good things that have happened in

- 40:19Speaker 10: Is it good?
- 40:19Speaker 6: Is it good.
- 40:30Speaker 8: Is there, like, a crowd of regular people at the Oscars?
- 40:33Speaker 6: Regular people?
- 40:34Speaker 8: I didn't know that.
- 40:35Speaker 6: They're across the street. They watch the celebrities.
- 40:37Speaker 2: Yeah, they always loiter around outside.
- 40:39Speaker 7: They throw out breadcrumbs.
- 40:41Speaker 2: That's how you get this giant screaming crowd we have.
- 40:43Speaker 8: Okay, so it's like the Oaks Day Festival, like, where there's, like,
- 40:47Speaker 8: regular people in the mud fields.
- 40:49Speaker 2: Yeah, the infield of the Oscars.
- 40:52Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 40:53Speaker 2: Where losers hang out and pretend to see people. Really fancy, like, whoopee.
- 40:58Speaker 7: I know.
- 40:58Speaker 8: I was like, damn, Whoopi Goldberg is covered in tattoos.
- 41:03Speaker 2: I think I knew she had some. I don't think
- 41:05Speaker 2: I'd seen her in a crazy dress like that, so
- 41:07Speaker 2: I didn't know how elaborate they were. Let's hope so.
- 41:11Speaker 7: I just want a Patrick Swayze, but you can't see it.
- 41:16Speaker 2: Same place I've got mine.
- 41:17Speaker 8: Only she can see.
- 41:21Speaker 2: It. All right.
- 41:22Speaker 8: Are we ready?
- 41:23Speaker 2: For the real awards.
- 41:25Speaker 6: Yes.
- 41:25Speaker 2: All right. You say you're not allowed on planes? It's
- 41:30Speaker 2: a surprise, actually. That's probably true.
- 41:32Speaker 8: That should be a problem.
- 41:34Speaker 6: Was it the last time you were on a plane
- 41:35Speaker 6: someone died?
- 41:36Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 41:38Speaker 8: Where were you? I was flying from Chicago to Brussels,
- 41:43Speaker 8: and yeah, someone died mid-flight. I woke up and there's
- 41:47Speaker 8: a dead fucking body behind me. United Airlines.
- 41:52Speaker 2: Again, as we said, there's certain stories that only come
- 41:55Speaker 2: from Marlena. Yeah, yeah.
- 41:56Speaker 6: What happened?
- 41:57Speaker 7: Like a heart attack or something?
- 41:58Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 41:59Speaker 6: She killed him.
- 42:00Speaker 2: It's sort of a weird Liam Neeson movie that unfolded
- 42:03Speaker 2: around her.
- 42:04Speaker 7: You didn't see any snakes crawling around.
- 42:05Speaker 2: Which again, I feel like most of your stories could
- 42:07Speaker 2: also be a Liam Neeson movie.
- 42:10Speaker 8: I'll tell people at work a story and they believe
- 42:14Speaker 8: it because they know me. But they're like, if I
- 42:16Speaker 8: didn't know you, I would think that was fake.
- 42:18Speaker 12: Oh, yeah.
- 42:19Speaker 2: That's kind of true.
- 42:20Speaker 8: And then I told them about the time you said,
- 42:21Speaker 8: if I were to hear a story about you getting
- 42:25Speaker 8: murdered by a car full of clowns, I'd be like, yeah.
- 42:30Speaker 6: Did I say that?
- 42:31Speaker 2: Yeah, it sounds like something.
- 42:32Speaker 7: That's our moment.
- 42:33Speaker 2: And then we'll give you a roast.
- 42:36Speaker 8: You're like, yeah, that's how she would have wanted to go.
- 42:38Speaker 6: That's the way she would have wanted to go.
- 42:39Speaker 8: And Morgan was like, yeah, yeah, I could see that happen.
- 42:43Speaker 2: Microworker Morgan. All right. The Foilers. This is many years
- 42:53Speaker 2: on this one. Once again, we are 10 years in
- 42:55Speaker 2: on the Oscar meltdown. That's pretty disturbing, isn't it? I've
- 43:00Speaker 2: been doing a version of this for a decade now.
- 43:03Speaker 2: I feel like.
- 43:04Speaker 6: The fact that anyone in this room, their attention span
- 43:06Speaker 6: was long enough to make it 10 years.
- 43:08Speaker 2: And I keep putting it together. What the hell is
- 43:10Speaker 2: up with.
- 43:10Speaker 7: Yeah, I don't understand.
- 43:11Speaker 2: I don't know what's wrong with me either.
- 43:13Speaker 10: Anyway.
- 43:14Speaker 2: The foilers. So we once again decided that obviously we're
- 43:18Speaker 2: not really paying that much attention to the Oscars since
- 43:21Speaker 2: we muted it now. And much like that, I came
- 43:24Speaker 2: up with our own list. And it's changed over the years. Still,
- 43:28Speaker 2: there's a questionable one tonight that I'm going to ask
- 43:31Speaker 2: if people are interested. If they want to readjust it,
- 43:33Speaker 2: feel free to get involved. Email us and let us know.
- 43:36Speaker 2: But the last several years, we've settled on these questions.
- 43:39Speaker 2: And several people that I've sent it out to on
- 43:42Speaker 2: the ballot throw it right back at me like, really
- 43:44Speaker 2: liked a lot of they'll give me specific ones that
- 43:46Speaker 2: they actually thought were legitimate good ways to go about
- 43:49Speaker 2: this so the first in this uh rundown the most
- 43:54Speaker 2: questionable career decision made by an actor actress or filmmaker
- 43:58Speaker 2: in 2017 we have a a few good ones and
- 44:02Speaker 2: occasionally i'll throw in a a comment from one of
- 44:06Speaker 2: the voters as with you know we're keeping it legitimate
- 44:09Speaker 2: here we're i'm not gonna out them you're all your
- 44:12Speaker 2: voting is secret But your comments, on the other hand,
- 44:15Speaker 2: I will gladly share with people because you guys are
- 44:17Speaker 2: pretty damn funny. So the first one is Brian Cranston
- 44:21Speaker 2: in Power Rangers. Their comment is one word. Why? The
- 44:29Speaker 2: second one, Hugh Jackman for The Greatest Showman. And their
- 44:34Speaker 2: comment is, Barnum was practically a slave owner dipshit. Let's
- 44:37Speaker 2: not pretend he kick-started any sort of human potential movement.
- 44:42Speaker 8: Hey, he was a slave owner, but then he was
- 44:44Speaker 8: an abolitionist, so.
- 44:45Speaker 6: He did set her free before she died.
- 44:48Speaker 8: Well, no, like, he fought for.
- 44:49Speaker 6: And he was an abolitionist.
- 44:50Speaker 8: He became, like, a philanthropist later in life. Yeah, his
- 44:53Speaker 8: career started by owning a slave, but... The Jimmy Kimmel story?
- 44:57Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right.
- 44:58Speaker 8: The Jimmy Kimmel story.
- 45:00Speaker 6: But he was also an abolitionist, so now I don't
- 45:02Speaker 6: know what the hell to.
- 45:03Speaker 2: Right, yeah.
- 45:04Speaker 8: No, he... I mean, like, I'm... This was a long
- 45:07Speaker 8: time ago. I'm not vouching for P.T.
- 45:10Speaker 2: Barnum.
- 45:10Speaker 8: I do like circus stuff. I always have. Everybody knows that. But, no, like,
- 45:17Speaker 8: he realized the error of his ways. You know, like,
- 45:19Speaker 8: not saying ever owning a slave was cool. Obviously, it
- 45:22Speaker 8: was not.
- 45:23Speaker 7: But, yeah.
- 45:24Speaker 2: Well, I just thought it was interesting that first time
- 45:26Speaker 2: I saw the trailer for it, I was just like, yes,
- 45:29Speaker 2: the guy to go to for anything similar to this
- 45:31Speaker 2: is Hugh Jackman. He gets the musical thing. And he's
- 45:35Speaker 2: certainly a showman.
- 45:36Speaker 6: But.
- 45:37Speaker 2: I'm just like, this is like a feel-good, uplifting story
- 45:41Speaker 2: about all people matter. I'm like, why would you use
- 45:46Speaker 2: the center of that to be P.T. Bard? Even if
- 45:50Speaker 2: you're not going into the slave owner part, he was
- 45:52Speaker 2: definitely using people for his own benefit. It was very strange.
- 45:58Speaker 8: I think we've all talked, and I've talked to lots
- 46:03Speaker 8: of people about this at length, like the circus was exploitative.
- 46:07Speaker 8: But it was also the only way for people who
- 46:09Speaker 8: otherwise would be relegated or killed, relegated to asylums or
- 46:15Speaker 8: homes or locked in attics or killed to earn a very,
- 46:18Speaker 8: very good living.
- 46:19Speaker 2: For them, yeah.
- 46:20Speaker 7: So it's a mixed bag, you know?
- 46:21Speaker 8: Like, I have mixed feelings about it. Obviously, they were exploited,
- 46:24Speaker 8: sometimes mistreated. But also, fucking Chang and Eng were the
- 46:28Speaker 8: equivalent of millionaires in their time. And they would not
- 46:31Speaker 8: have been if it wasn't for the circus. So, you know,
- 46:34Speaker 8: it's like.
- 46:36Speaker 2: I've been fascinated by everything else that surrounded it. But yeah,
- 46:39Speaker 2: at the core, it's like a horrible human rights violation.
- 46:43Speaker 2: But like for, if you take that out, like everything
- 46:46Speaker 2: else that became part of the like, build up around
- 46:50Speaker 2: it and the showmanship of it is pretty damn fascinating.
- 46:53Speaker 8: I kind of feel like it was so loosely based
- 46:56Speaker 8: on reality anyway. Why not just make it completely fictitious?
- 47:00Speaker 2: Yeah, that kind of would have been.
- 47:02Speaker 6: A little better. Somebody brought up a good point that
- 47:04Speaker 6: his whole life anyway was, or what he represented at
- 47:09Speaker 6: the time was loosely based on fact and a lot
- 47:13Speaker 6: of it was lies anyway. Right. except this time they
- 47:17Speaker 6: polished the story.
- 47:18Speaker 2: Polished it up and made it really shiny and had
- 47:22Speaker 2: some catchy songs to it.
- 47:23Speaker 8: It just seems so fictional. Yes, he had daughters. I
- 47:28Speaker 8: think the daughters in the movie, at least one of
- 47:32Speaker 8: them died before she was the age she would have
- 47:34Speaker 8: been in the movie. There's a lot of sad stuff
- 47:37Speaker 8: they skipped over, which she would obviously do in a musical.
- 47:40Speaker 8: But it's just like, why? It's like, why make Holocaust
- 47:45Speaker 8: the musical?
- 47:46Speaker 7: Wait a minute.
- 47:47Speaker 2: This is going to totally work out.
- 47:53Speaker 8: Why don't you just make a circus?
- 47:54Speaker 2: Get Hollywood on the phone now.
- 47:56Speaker 8: Why not just make an old-timey circus-themed musical? Why loosely
- 48:00Speaker 8: base it on someone who was a real person with
- 48:02Speaker 8: a questionable history?
- 48:02Speaker 2: I think that with a lot of those, just with
- 48:05Speaker 2: remakes and stuff, that they get so much flack for
- 48:08Speaker 2: doing something that other people are so attached to when
- 48:10Speaker 2: half the time they'll totally change the story anyway. So
- 48:13Speaker 2: I'm like, Why not just make your own story that's
- 48:16Speaker 2: sort of about a similar idea? And I don't know.
- 48:19Speaker 2: Everybody wants to pin it on a very specific recognizable name,
- 48:22Speaker 2: and that's what they need. I think that's... Like, just
- 48:25Speaker 2: write your own story. There's a lot of general themes
- 48:28Speaker 2: that are around. It's fine. Use them. Do something with them.
- 48:31Speaker 8: But, I mean, at the end of the day, I mean,
- 48:33Speaker 8: I watched it. I was really excited about it because, A,
- 48:35Speaker 8: I love musicals. B, I love the circus. The idea
- 48:39Speaker 8: of the circus, not the actual circus, like old-timey circus stuff. Yeah.
- 48:44Speaker 8: So I was really excited about the movie and we
- 48:46Speaker 8: saw it on Christmas Day. But it was obviously like
- 48:51Speaker 8: a made up story. Like it felt made up. It
- 48:53Speaker 8: was fine.
- 48:53Speaker 6: It was good.
- 48:54Speaker 8: It was entertaining. But it didn't feel like, oh, this
- 48:56Speaker 8: is like a factual representation of his life. So it
- 49:00Speaker 8: just seemed like pointless to base it on anything.
- 49:03Speaker 2: I mean, that's true of it.
- 49:04Speaker 7: How were Zac Efron's eyes?
- 49:06Speaker 10: Beautiful.
- 49:06Speaker 2: Dreamy.
- 49:07Speaker 7: Beautiful.
- 49:07Speaker 8: Beautiful.
- 49:09Speaker 2: Zach takes a lot of heat. I think he's a
- 49:11Speaker 2: pretty damn entertaining guy.
- 49:12Speaker 6: He's all right. I mean, I was warming up to
- 49:15Speaker 6: him anyway, but by the time I saw him in Baywatch,
- 49:17Speaker 6: I was like, this guy, not only can he kind of, act,
- 49:20Speaker 6: he's also funny.
- 49:21Speaker 2: Yeah, he's got a good sense of humor about himself
- 49:23Speaker 2: and knows that people don't take him seriously, which is
- 49:26Speaker 2: why he puts himself in these roles sometimes.
- 49:28Speaker 7: That DJ movie, though.
- 49:30Speaker 8: I kind of feel like Zac Efron will have a
- 49:32Speaker 8: super serious breakout role at some point. I think so.
- 49:36Speaker 8: Because he's an amazing, I don't want to say amazing,
- 49:38Speaker 8: but he's a very good actor and a very good singer.
- 49:41Speaker 7: How old is he?
- 49:41Speaker 6: Has he hit 30 yet?
- 49:43Speaker 2: I don't think so.
- 49:44Speaker 6: I don't think so either. But I think right around
- 49:46Speaker 6: that time, that's when we're going to see something really
- 49:48Speaker 6: amazing from him.
- 49:50Speaker 2: So as usual.
- 49:51Speaker 7: Outside of his abs.
- 49:52Speaker 2: If you're familiar with the foilers, this is also pretty standard.
- 49:56Speaker 2: This is how it goes. We get midway in and
- 49:59Speaker 2: we're like, oh, we've been talking for 20 minutes and
- 50:00Speaker 2: we still haven't made it through this category. So next up,
- 50:04Speaker 2: and this one ought to fire people up too. This
- 50:06Speaker 2: is a real world win in our entry of most
- 50:09Speaker 2: questionable career decision. Mark Wahlberg negotiating for $ 2 million to
- 50:14Speaker 2: reshoot his stuff for all the money in the world
- 50:17Speaker 2: and Michelle Williams offered to do it for free. Which
- 50:20Speaker 2: is all true. I mean, I knew some of that
- 50:23Speaker 2: was true, but I went back to find the actual
- 50:25Speaker 2: specifics today just to To pin it down. And yeah,
- 50:28Speaker 2: then that's, I mean, from the beginning, Michelle Williams was like,
- 50:32Speaker 2: you know, yeah, I'll give up my holiday. I'll show
- 50:34Speaker 2: up and do this for free just to make sure
- 50:36Speaker 2: we get our movie done. Mark, from the beginning, got
- 50:40Speaker 2: his people involved and negotiated for $ 1. 5 million and $ 2
- 50:44Speaker 2: million for his 10 days that he had to work.
- 50:48Speaker 2: And the movie itself had a $ 10 million budget. And he,
- 50:52Speaker 2: to come in and shoot 10 extra days, negotiated to
- 50:55Speaker 2: get $ 2 million. Think about that. that that's that's pretty.
- 50:59Speaker 6: You know i go i go back and forth on
- 51:00Speaker 6: this because like if my boss wanted me to come
- 51:02Speaker 6: in on my day off i'd expect to get paid
- 51:04Speaker 6: for it but at the same time he probably how
- 51:07Speaker 6: much you know does he get paid up front just
- 51:10Speaker 6: to be.
- 51:10Speaker 2: In the movie yep so in the end i think
- 51:13Speaker 2: they just had to put her on the paperwork for
- 51:15Speaker 2: something so michelle williams i think just for them to
- 51:19Speaker 2: be official and have her there paid her about 80
- 51:21Speaker 2: bucks a.
- 51:21Speaker 7: Day I think he ended up donating that.
- 51:25Speaker 2: He did, but that was only when he got busted
- 51:28Speaker 2: in the media and he felt like, wow, I look
- 51:30Speaker 2: like a dick now. He kind of always looks like
- 51:32Speaker 2: a dick, though. Yeah, he kind of always does.
- 51:34Speaker 8: That's one of those things that I... I mean, obviously,
- 51:36Speaker 8: women are... There's definitely a huge pay difference between what
- 51:40Speaker 8: men and women are paid for various reasons. You would
- 51:44Speaker 8: think it correlates to fame, and it doesn't always. And
- 51:47Speaker 8: I honestly think that... that particular scenario, not every scenario,
- 51:54Speaker 8: but that particular one, is because she had managers who
- 51:56Speaker 8: didn't fight for her. They're just like, sure.
- 51:59Speaker 2: But I heard they were managed by the same company
- 52:03Speaker 2: as well.
- 52:04Speaker 6: Oh, okay.
- 52:04Speaker 8: Well, then never mind then.
- 52:06Speaker 2: Well, again, I don't know individual people involved, but I
- 52:08Speaker 2: think they both worked for the same, or they were
- 52:11Speaker 2: both managed by the same company. And yeah, that's kind
- 52:15Speaker 2: of bullshit.
- 52:16Speaker 7: You think maybe he got more because he was in
- 52:17Speaker 7: The Happenings?
- 52:19Speaker 2: I think he should have it deducted out of his
- 52:21Speaker 2: personal bank account for being in that.
- 52:23Speaker 7: I love that stupid movie. The riff tracks for it
- 52:26Speaker 7: is the best.
- 52:27Speaker 2: So yeah, once again, that's nonsense. The next one, and
- 52:32Speaker 2: this one is equally as disturbing as far as I'm
- 52:34Speaker 2: concerned for most questionable career decision. And the runner up
- 52:38Speaker 2: to this category, several votes came in for Sir Patrick
- 52:42Speaker 2: Stewart being in the Emoji movie.
- 52:45Speaker 6: I did not know that.
- 52:47Speaker 2: Thank you. I didn't pay enough attention. Until these came in,
- 52:49Speaker 2: I went, wait, Patrick Stewart did that? You want the
- 52:52Speaker 2: real kicker for those that weren't paying attention? He's the
- 52:56Speaker 2: poop emoji.
- 52:56Speaker 8: I was going to say, tell me he's the poop emoji.
- 52:58Speaker 6: I can't tell that if that makes me more or
- 53:00Speaker 6: less upset.
- 53:01Speaker 2: I mean, it makes me okay with him because at
- 53:04Speaker 2: least he's always had a sense of humor about how
- 53:06Speaker 2: serious people take him.
- 53:07Speaker 6: That's almost, almost, not entirely, but that's almost along the
- 53:11Speaker 6: lines of Franklin Angela playing Skeletor, you know, okay, yeah,
- 53:17Speaker 6: he's going to be the bad guy. It seems like
- 53:19Speaker 6: they came up to him and said, hey, would you
- 53:20Speaker 6: like to be the poop emoji? And he was like, oh, yeah.
- 53:23Speaker 2: Would I?
- 53:24Speaker 6: Of course I would.
- 53:26Speaker 10: I would.
- 53:26Speaker 6: But other than that, the emoji movie?
- 53:29Speaker 8: I'm going to get.
- 53:30Speaker 6: Mad every time I watch Star Trek now.
- 53:33Speaker 8: I appreciate the Daniel Day-Lewis's of the world who are
- 53:38Speaker 8: very discerning with their career choices. But then I also
- 53:41Speaker 8: appreciate the George Cloonies who are not afraid to be
- 53:44Speaker 8: the barking gay dog on South Park.
- 53:46Speaker 10: Sure.
- 53:47Speaker 8: I love people who aren't afraid to take themselves too
- 53:50Speaker 8: seriously as much as I love people who are super serious.
- 53:52Speaker 6: When you said poop emoji, that really kind of sandpapered
- 53:56Speaker 6: the rough edge of my hatred a little.
- 53:59Speaker 2: That's American Dad. If you want to love him, watch
- 54:03Speaker 2: American Dad. The things that come out of that character's
- 54:07Speaker 2: mouth in the Patrick Stewart voice that are said sometimes,
- 54:10Speaker 2: I'm just like, man, I already love Patrick Stewart, but
- 54:14Speaker 2: the fact that he's gay. He's an American Dad?
- 54:16Speaker 6: Yeah, he plays Stan's boss.
- 54:18Speaker 2: He's a regular character on American Dad, and he is hilarious.
- 54:23Speaker 2: Points to Patrick Stewart for being cool, and not so
- 54:26Speaker 2: much on the Emoji movies. So, that all having been said,
- 54:30Speaker 2: the winner, equally as ridiculous, the winner is Anthony Hopkins
- 54:36Speaker 2: in Transformers The Last Knight.
- 54:39Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 54:40Speaker 2: Once again, mind you, Sir Anthony Hopkins decided to be
- 54:43Speaker 2: in the Transformers movie.
- 54:45Speaker 7: I didn't realize that he was in that.
- 54:46Speaker 2: I think he's a voice, once again.
- 54:48Speaker 6: Sometimes you need a new car.
- 54:49Speaker 10: You know?
- 54:50Speaker 2: Sometimes your kids are like, Dad. dad yeah i got
- 54:54Speaker 2: in some legal trouble what can you help me out.
- 54:56Speaker 7: Was he in it as a person or i think
- 54:58Speaker 7: he's a.
- 54:59Speaker 2: Voice i could be wrong is he actually physically in
- 55:02Speaker 2: it that tells you how much i've actually that that
- 55:04Speaker 2: was our comment here's.
- 55:05Speaker 12: I just watched a lot of honest trailers.
- 55:08Speaker 2: Well that was that was their comment that came in
- 55:11Speaker 2: his specific response that came along with this was did
- 55:14Speaker 2: you know anthony hopkins was in the latest transformers movie
- 55:17Speaker 2: Me either until recently because I didn't see it. But
- 55:20Speaker 2: I saw that mentioned online and that is undoubtedly one
- 55:23Speaker 2: that he wishes he could take back.
- 55:26Speaker 7: Should go indie and be on Transmorphers.
- 55:30Speaker 2: Transmorphers. That's Asylum, isn't it? You believe that's Asylum. Sad.
- 55:35Speaker 2: It's more sad that I know that that's Asylum. Moving on.
- 55:39Speaker 2: The next category is most shocking moment in a 2017 film.
- 55:45Speaker 2: minor actually most of these until the very end here
- 55:49Speaker 2: is spoiler free that one I'll let you know for
- 55:52Speaker 2: sure but first up as previously mentioned the monster human
- 55:56Speaker 2: sex scene in Shape of Water we all knew that
- 55:59Speaker 2: was coming that's no surprise this was one of my
- 56:02Speaker 2: favorites for the entire run of this the comment is
- 56:05Speaker 2: just she ate the whole pie if you've seen a
- 56:09Speaker 2: ghost story no it's a shocking it's points to her
- 56:14Speaker 2: that's the next up the cure for wellness and their
- 56:19Speaker 2: quote is just all the crazy scary scenes yeah it
- 56:24Speaker 2: was the beginning.
- 56:25Speaker 8: Weird I feel like get out and a cure for
- 56:27Speaker 8: wellness for.
- 56:28Speaker 2: Like yeah I mean it does seem like get out
- 56:30Speaker 2: it's been around forever but obviously it's nominated for Oscars
- 56:34Speaker 2: so that must be technically cool again I like the
- 56:38Speaker 2: way they worded this keeps it from being too overwhelming
- 56:42Speaker 2: in this that category but They just billed it as
- 56:45Speaker 2: baby headbangers ball in Mother. Wait, let me get the
- 56:48Speaker 2: punctuation right.
- 56:49Speaker 11: Mother!
- 56:51Speaker 8: I've not seen that. I heard I don't want to.
- 56:54Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm assuming... I give it points for doing what
- 56:58Speaker 2: it's doing. Because it's a weird movie halfway in. And
- 57:03Speaker 2: then they turn it up to 11 on the what
- 57:06Speaker 2: the fuck. So... The fact that they got that made
- 57:10Speaker 2: with that huge budget with the biggest A-list star in
- 57:14Speaker 2: the world to do it, that's impressive because it is
- 57:18Speaker 2: pure insanity by the end of it and structured in
- 57:21Speaker 2: a way that normal Hollywood nonsense doesn't get structured. Points
- 57:26Speaker 2: for being artsy and stuff, but I feel like most
- 57:29Speaker 2: people in the real world aren't going to like it,
- 57:31Speaker 2: so they don't care.
- 57:32Speaker 8: That happens sometimes. Remember Vanilla Sky?
- 57:34Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 57:35Speaker 8: People are like, what the fuck?
- 57:37Speaker 2: Yeah, it's artsy, but at least it still kind of
- 57:40Speaker 2: followed through with semi-normal movie. This turns a corner, and
- 57:44Speaker 2: I'm just like, man, I can't believe it. This is
- 57:46Speaker 2: like indie film type of stuff going on with a
- 57:50Speaker 2: massive multi-million dollar budget. So points for getting it made
- 57:54Speaker 2: more than anything. So the next up is the winner,
- 57:58Speaker 2: and obviously it's a spoiler, but if you don't know
- 58:01Speaker 2: this by now, I don't know what kind of geek
- 58:02Speaker 2: you are. So... And the winner is, for the most
- 58:05Speaker 2: shocking moment in the film, and I'll give them, I
- 58:08Speaker 2: did not expect the death of Snoke, but, I mean,
- 58:12Speaker 2: midway into that scene you saw it coming, but overall,
- 58:15Speaker 2: did I see it happening at that point in the movie?
- 58:19Speaker 2: Probably not even in this movie. I figure that's what
- 58:22Speaker 2: we're leading to third movie out, but no, they snuck
- 58:27Speaker 2: one in there.
- 58:28Speaker 8: I feel like the most, I feel like that shirtless
- 58:33Speaker 8: Adam Driver scene was more of a like than the
- 58:36Speaker 8: death of Snoke was.
- 58:38Speaker 6: That your gross face or like super hot dude that's
- 58:41Speaker 6: what you're saying people kept telling me that that was
- 58:44Speaker 6: a sexy scene and I'm like I don't I fail
- 58:46Speaker 6: to see.
- 58:46Speaker 8: It it's just something about hot pants His pants were, like,
- 58:51Speaker 8: to his nipples.
- 58:52Speaker 6: Unless you're Cary Grant. If you can't do it, it's okay.
- 58:54Speaker 8: It was just weird. It's not like I have anything
- 58:56Speaker 8: against Adam Driver.
- 58:57Speaker 2: He may have been nominated further down the line as our.
- 59:01Speaker 6: But even Ray was like, put a shirt on.
- 59:05Speaker 2: Look, you might be my brother. I'm not sure either.
- 59:08Speaker 2: It's all really cloudy at this point. just in case
- 59:11Speaker 2: we've seen empire just put a shirt.
- 59:13Speaker 7: On i feel like in the shape of water it
- 59:14Speaker 7: was more shocking to me the the cat.
- 59:17Speaker 2: Uh yeah again i did not expect.
- 59:20Speaker 7: That or the masturbation No, we all expect that. I
- 59:24Speaker 7: didn't expect that.
- 59:25Speaker 6: I expect that in every movie I watch.
- 59:27Speaker 2: You're usually disappointed.
- 59:28Speaker 6: 90% of the time.
- 59:29Speaker 7: Just to be safe.
- 59:30Speaker 2: Usually disappointed.
- 59:31Speaker 6: Let down.
- 59:33Speaker 2: It is fitting, though, that a Star Wars reference of
- 59:36Speaker 2: any kind won this category because that was, outside of
- 59:39Speaker 2: the other ones there, the majority of them were Star
- 59:42Speaker 2: Wars related. Which tells me everybody had their own weird
- 59:46Speaker 2: problems with The Last Jedi. They were, uh, here's the rundown, uh, again, spoilers,
- 59:53Speaker 2: Luke Skywalker's death scene, which this comment was, we've been
- 59:58Speaker 2: waiting for Luke to return since 1983 and he returns
- 1:00:01Speaker 2: in a Star Wars movie and they fucking kill him.
- 1:00:04Speaker 2: It was all in caps. I had to follow through.
- 1:00:07Speaker 2: Also in that was the Luke force projecting, Luke milking
- 1:00:12Speaker 2: a space cow, and Leia's force flight and the parents reveal.
- 1:00:16Speaker 2: All of those had their own separate votes in addition
- 1:00:18Speaker 2: to all the ones that came in in support of
- 1:00:21Speaker 2: Dead Snoke.
- 1:00:21Speaker 8: What parents reveal?
- 1:00:23Speaker 2: Have you not seen it? The kind of a reveal, but.
- 1:00:26Speaker 8: Yeah, but I don't feel like that he was... That's what.
- 1:00:29Speaker 2: I said in the episode. I was like, I think
- 1:00:31Speaker 2: he was just toying with her because he was trying
- 1:00:33Speaker 2: to get her to turn.
- 1:00:33Speaker 8: He could have just said that.
- 1:00:35Speaker 2: It's not like they proved it. They lie all the
- 1:00:37Speaker 2: time in Star Wars. From a certain point of view.
- 1:00:40Speaker 6: Right.
- 1:00:41Speaker 2: Bullshit.
- 1:00:41Speaker 8: I'm just like, I don't... Oh, cool, because the bad
- 1:00:44Speaker 8: guy said it.
- 1:00:44Speaker 2: It must be true.
- 1:00:45Speaker 8: Bad guys never lie.
- 1:00:48Speaker 6: No, the bad guys in Star Wars are shockingly honest.
- 1:00:51Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:00:51Speaker 6: Really?
- 1:00:52Speaker 2: Only Ben Kenobi who makes shit up.
- 1:00:54Speaker 6: Yeah, Ben Kenobi lied.
- 1:00:56Speaker 2: Dude makes up everything he said.
- 1:01:00Speaker 8: I don't know. Yeah, that movie was like... What was
- 1:01:04Speaker 8: the part that bothered you the most about it?
- 1:01:06Speaker 12: The Mary Poppins.
- 1:01:08Speaker 2: The Leia Force flight?
- 1:01:09Speaker 13: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:01:10Speaker 8: I thought it was the door thing.
- 1:01:12Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
- 1:01:13Speaker 12: Well, the flight and then the fact that they come
- 1:01:16Speaker 12: down to the... planet and they leave the damn door
- 1:01:19Speaker 12: open and they're surprised that you know the empire is
- 1:01:24Speaker 12: coming well yeah.
- 1:01:25Speaker 2: They couldn't find the garage door remote but they were
- 1:01:28Speaker 2: gonna you know and just.
- 1:01:31Speaker 12: The fact that every every you know spaceship that they
- 1:01:34Speaker 12: took out to fight was a piece of garbage just
- 1:01:37Speaker 12: so we could see like red salt and flying on
- 1:01:40Speaker 12: the screen.
- 1:01:41Speaker 2: But that red salt looked really cool. So visuals-wise, I
- 1:01:45Speaker 2: get it, but it is... Story-wise, it's... Well, I mean,
- 1:01:49Speaker 2: to me, it's more damning that they're like 10 feet away,
- 1:01:53Speaker 2: stranded in the middle, and somehow the Empire can't gun
- 1:01:56Speaker 2: down these two. They've already knocked off every ship in
- 1:01:58Speaker 2: the distance, but these guys right in front of them,
- 1:02:00Speaker 2: they can't kill? There's some issues there. But I don't
- 1:02:04Speaker 2: talk smack. I still liked it. I enjoyed it. I
- 1:02:07Speaker 2: still liked it. I enjoyed it.
- 1:02:08Speaker 6: I'll watch it again.
- 1:02:09Speaker 2: I'll nitpick because we're geeks and that's what we do. Right.
- 1:02:12Speaker 2: I still liked it.
- 1:02:13Speaker 7: It's fine.
- 1:02:14Speaker 8: I didn't watch the one that came out last year.
- 1:02:19Speaker 2: Oh, Rogue One?
- 1:02:20Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:02:21Speaker 2: That was a separate show. So you're not behind.
- 1:02:24Speaker 7: Okay.
- 1:02:25Speaker 12: Honestly, I think Rogue One was the best one.
- 1:02:27Speaker 6: Rogue One was pretty good.
- 1:02:30Speaker 2: Rogue One's pretty impressive. All right. So next up is
- 1:02:34Speaker 2: the most miscast actor or actress for the role of
- 1:02:37Speaker 2: In a 2017 film. This one, I don't think most
- 1:02:41Speaker 2: people are not going to argue with any of these.
- 1:02:43Speaker 2: Back to one of your favorites. First up is Hugh
- 1:02:46Speaker 2: Jackman as P.T. Barnum. The college is a trolling Victorian-era humbug.
- 1:02:51Speaker 2: The circus freak in me wept. Ah, freaks. I'm on
- 1:02:56Speaker 2: board with the freak part.
- 1:02:57Speaker 6: So does that mean that that person is a conjoined
- 1:02:59Speaker 6: twin and that that was the part that wept?
- 1:03:02Speaker 2: I do know who this came from, and... This person
- 1:03:06Speaker 2: is a circus freak, so they hide their conjoined a
- 1:03:11Speaker 2: little better than some. Next up, the only one that
- 1:03:15Speaker 2: might hurt some feelings, Emma Watson as Belle in Beauty
- 1:03:18Speaker 2: and the Beast, including a comment of, if they wanted
- 1:03:21Speaker 2: someone who could sing, she wasn't the one.
- 1:03:23Speaker 6: I did finally see that movie the other night, and
- 1:03:29Speaker 6: I fell asleep about it. 38 minutes.
- 1:03:31Speaker 2: As we've said, that is no judgment on the quality
- 1:03:35Speaker 2: of the film.
- 1:03:35Speaker 6: No, in this case it was. Because it wasn't like, oh,
- 1:03:38Speaker 6: I'm tired, it's whatever. It's like, I have to see
- 1:03:41Speaker 6: something beside this. I'll have dreams.
- 1:03:45Speaker 2: My dreams will have better CGI on someone's face than
- 1:03:49Speaker 2: the Beast.
- 1:03:51Speaker 6: You know, let's talk about that. The Beast is supposed
- 1:03:54Speaker 6: to be scary and hideous, but you can still tell
- 1:03:57Speaker 6: by the makeup that that's a handsome dude in there.
- 1:03:59Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 1:04:00Speaker 2: That guy's jacket is a little.
- 1:04:02Speaker 6: Is that guy a joke of himself?
- 1:04:05Speaker 2: He washed his coat a little too long.
- 1:04:06Speaker 8: Is he like alive or is he like a weekend
- 1:04:09Speaker 8: at Bernie's type situation? He looks really like.
- 1:04:13Speaker 7: Shape of water just want to.
- 1:04:14Speaker 6: That guy is so high.
- 1:04:15Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 1:04:18Speaker 7: They'll have green pocket squares for the fish man.
- 1:04:20Speaker 2: Right. Points to the fish man.
- 1:04:23Speaker 8: And they'll have velvet tuxedo jackets on, so you know.
- 1:04:27Speaker 6: That, it looks like it's a trend this year. A
- 1:04:30Speaker 6: lot of people are wearing the velvet tuxes, which.
- 1:04:32Speaker 2: Right. Velvety. Next up, and I do remember as the
- 1:04:37Speaker 2: trailer came on going, wait, he's in this? Matthew McConaughey
- 1:04:41Speaker 2: in The Dark Tower.
- 1:04:42Speaker 7: Oh, yeah.
- 1:04:43Speaker 2: The man in black is all right, all right, all right.
- 1:04:46Speaker 7: I almost think he's perfectly cast, though, because he's kind
- 1:04:49Speaker 7: of the sleazy sort of.
- 1:04:53Speaker 7: I've only read a couple of Dark Tower books, but
- 1:04:55Speaker 7: I thought he... He was probably the best part of
- 1:04:57Speaker 7: the movie.
- 1:04:58Speaker 2: Sticking with my theme, I really like the cover of
- 1:05:01Speaker 2: The Gunfighter. That's as far as I got on it.
- 1:05:06Speaker 2: Because it's like a lot of words and stuff, but
- 1:05:08Speaker 2: that artwork on the front is pretty badass.
- 1:05:12Speaker 8: I think I read one of the books.
- 1:05:13Speaker 2: And I believe it's Drew Struh.
- 1:05:14Speaker 8: In high school?
- 1:05:15Speaker 2: Just saying. I want to get through them all eventually.
- 1:05:17Speaker 7: But yeah, it's always so intimidating with King because his
- 1:05:20Speaker 7: books are so long.
- 1:05:21Speaker 2: So our takeaway is Drew Struh's an awesome. Matthew McConaughey,
- 1:05:25Speaker 2: jury's still out. Next up, and this was the runner-up,
- 1:05:29Speaker 2: it was neck and neck right up until the end,
- 1:05:32Speaker 2: and I can't argue because we all kind of said
- 1:05:35Speaker 2: the same thing. Tom Cruise in The Mummy. I watched
- 1:05:39Speaker 2: the trailer and went, what, what? Their comment here is,
- 1:05:43Speaker 2: wasted opportunity for Universal, and Tom was awful, as was
- 1:05:47Speaker 2: the entire film.
- 1:05:49Speaker 6: I think we've had that discussion many times.
- 1:05:50Speaker 2: Yeah, we kind of have on this show.
- 1:05:52Speaker 8: You said Tom Cruise, I for some reason pictured Tom Hanks,
- 1:05:55Speaker 8: and I was like, yeah, what?
- 1:05:56Speaker 2: That's terrible. I'd watch that. I would watch Tom Hanks.
- 1:05:59Speaker 6: I'd watch.
- 1:06:01Speaker 12: Not because I fell asleep, because I couldn't watch anymore.
- 1:06:04Speaker 12: In a theater? No, I was watching it online.
- 1:06:07Speaker 2: And I was like, I can't do it. I watched
- 1:06:10Speaker 2: the whole thing, and my take on the end was like,
- 1:06:13Speaker 2: I don't even know that it's a bad movie. It's
- 1:06:16Speaker 2: just not a mummy movie. Like there's no mummy to it.
- 1:06:19Speaker 2: Like it's scary. It's big, dumb CG stuff. It's like
- 1:06:22Speaker 2: an action movie and it's not a terrible action. It's
- 1:06:26Speaker 2: a regular big budget action movie with Tom Cruise in it.
- 1:06:29Speaker 2: It's just, there's no mummy at all. There's no creepy
- 1:06:33Speaker 2: old school mummy action that we would have wanted.
- 1:06:36Speaker 6: This is where it gets complicated because it's like I
- 1:06:39Speaker 6: said that one time people are referring to the Brendan
- 1:06:42Speaker 6: Fraser mummy movie as the original.
- 1:06:44Speaker 2: That's the problem.
- 1:06:45Speaker 6: That's the problem. The original with Boris Karloff, if you remember,
- 1:06:51Speaker 6: you see him, his hand as the mummy, and then
- 1:06:55Speaker 6: the rest of the time he's not the mummy at
- 1:06:57Speaker 6: all in the movie. So I feel like there's a
- 1:06:59Speaker 6: weird balance there. Because people want that. They're going to
- 1:07:02Speaker 6: expect it to be an action movie. So if it
- 1:07:03Speaker 6: was a straight up horror, they'd be like, this isn't
- 1:07:05Speaker 6: like the original.
- 1:07:07Speaker 2: Yes. Again, for them trying to reboot a franchise and
- 1:07:10Speaker 2: start this whole new bunch of horror movies, they should
- 1:07:13Speaker 2: have figured out what they really wanted to do and
- 1:07:16Speaker 2: not start off with a weird Tom Cruise action movie.
- 1:07:18Speaker 6: Because they were all about that new dark universe.
- 1:07:21Speaker 2: And that part was good, actually. As much as later
- 1:07:24Speaker 2: somewhere nominates the, what's his face? That's the Invisible Man.
- 1:07:29Speaker 12: Well, I think Universal kind of shot himself in the
- 1:07:32Speaker 12: face by, you know, I don't think you're going to
- 1:07:35Speaker 12: have any more Dark Universe.
- 1:07:37Speaker 7: No.
- 1:07:37Speaker 6: They killed it already. Which is a bit of a shame.
- 1:07:40Speaker 2: What the hell is it? Russell Crowe. Oh, yeah. I
- 1:07:46Speaker 2: felt like somebody nominated him for something terrible later. But
- 1:07:50Speaker 2: to me, I thought he was actually not bad. Like
- 1:07:52Speaker 2: he knew what kind of a cheesy movie he was
- 1:07:55Speaker 2: in and he was just feel like fully committing to
- 1:07:58Speaker 2: the silliness of it and was playing that up fine.
- 1:08:01Speaker 2: And they set him up to be the tie in
- 1:08:03Speaker 2: to what was going to be the invisible man and
- 1:08:05Speaker 2: what was going to be almost like this weird Buffy
- 1:08:08Speaker 2: monster hunting club that was going to tie through all
- 1:08:11Speaker 2: of them eventually.
- 1:08:11Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 1:08:12Speaker 2: I'm assuming, and that part, that five minutes was kind
- 1:08:15Speaker 2: of interesting. I'm like, okay, this has potential. And then
- 1:08:18Speaker 2: it went back to Tom Cruise running away from a
- 1:08:20Speaker 2: CG snowstorm or whatever the fuck was going on.
- 1:08:23Speaker 12: The guy from New Girl was just trying to play
- 1:08:26Speaker 12: his Nick Miller character right out of the gate.
- 1:08:29Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:08:30Speaker 12: And it doesn't really work in everything you do.
- 1:08:32Speaker 2: A lot of that stuff.
- 1:08:33Speaker 12: I mean, I think he was better in Jurassic Park.
- 1:08:35Speaker 12: It kind of fit that role. But his new girl
- 1:08:39Speaker 12: character really didn't fit into an action movie.
- 1:08:41Speaker 2: It's hard for him to do anything else. He was
- 1:08:44Speaker 2: in the Safety Not Guaranteed, and he's still almost that
- 1:08:49Speaker 2: same guy. He doesn't stray far from that character in general,
- 1:08:53Speaker 2: it seems like. so again it may be more miscasting
- 1:08:57Speaker 2: in general in this movie so still not the winner
- 1:09:02Speaker 2: this one again nobody's gonna argue and the winner is
- 1:09:06Speaker 2: for most miscast actor or actress in their role Scarlett
- 1:09:10Speaker 2: Johansson in Ghost in the Shell that just annoyed fanboys
- 1:09:14Speaker 2: all over the world like from day one like as
- 1:09:17Speaker 2: soon as it was announced.
- 1:09:18Speaker 12: And watching Weta Workshop work on the Geisha robots, I
- 1:09:23Speaker 12: was so excited just to see them. And then another
- 1:09:27Speaker 12: movie that I just couldn't get through because it was
- 1:09:29Speaker 12: so bad.
- 1:09:30Speaker 2: I kind of had that same response. Like I watched
- 1:09:32Speaker 2: it and I'm like, had this been once again, almost
- 1:09:35Speaker 2: back to the PT Barnum, had you just disconnected it
- 1:09:38Speaker 2: and like done a weird future, like just kind of
- 1:09:41Speaker 2: rip off the idea, but take it in your own
- 1:09:43Speaker 2: direction and not because all you're going to do is
- 1:09:45Speaker 2: piss off fanboys and nobody's going to want it. You're
- 1:09:48Speaker 2: banking on name recognition for the title, but you're just
- 1:09:51Speaker 2: going to annoy what would have been your paying customers.
- 1:09:54Speaker 2: So why wouldn't you just, Hey, we did a sort
- 1:09:57Speaker 2: of similar futuristic story. Come see it. It's got Scarlett Johansson.
- 1:10:01Speaker 2: People like her. I think it would have worked in
- 1:10:03Speaker 2: any other scenario because the, the effects were actually really
- 1:10:06Speaker 2: good and she's good in just about everything she's in.
- 1:10:10Speaker 2: But like, you can't get over that hurdle of like,
- 1:10:13Speaker 2: except we've seen the other one and we know better.
- 1:10:16Speaker 2: So I think that was the problem. Like, I think
- 1:10:19Speaker 2: it could have been a decent movie if they just
- 1:10:22Speaker 2: got out of their own way and, Scarlett. It's not
- 1:10:26Speaker 2: your fault, Scarlett. I do like this random comment that
- 1:10:30Speaker 2: came in, though. Their nomination was for The Rock in
- 1:10:33Speaker 2: whatever BS CGI movie he was in because he doesn't
- 1:10:36Speaker 2: need effects. I can't argue that.
- 1:10:39Speaker 7: Can you all believe they're making a movie out of
- 1:10:41Speaker 7: the Rampage video game? Oh, yeah.
- 1:10:43Speaker 2: And now? I'm watching that trailer before the title came
- 1:10:47Speaker 2: up and I went, I assume they were ripping off.
- 1:10:50Speaker 2: I was like, this is just kind of like, oh
- 1:10:52Speaker 2: my God, they made a Rampage movie?
- 1:10:54Speaker 6: But has anyone noticed the release date on that movie?
- 1:10:57Speaker 6: April 20th, 420. Nice.
- 1:11:00Speaker 10: A day that you should release.
- 1:11:02Speaker 6: That sort of movie.
- 1:11:03Speaker 2: Yeah, that seems about right.
- 1:11:04Speaker 6: But yeah, I'll go see it. Oh, yeah. Giant monsters
- 1:11:09Speaker 6: in the rock?
- 1:11:09Speaker 10: Hell yeah.
- 1:11:10Speaker 2: That's what I was going to say. I would go
- 1:11:11Speaker 2: see it just for the giant rocks, just for the
- 1:11:13Speaker 2: giant monsters, but if you go put a giant rock,
- 1:11:16Speaker 2: and you've seen him these days, dude's fucking huge.
- 1:11:18Speaker 8: I'm here to watch this movie for the giant rocks.
- 1:11:20Speaker 2: I will watch it for the giant rock, because that dude.
- 1:11:22Speaker 7: That's why I went to see 120 Hours, or 127 Hours, whatever.
- 1:11:24Speaker 7: I'm just here for the rocks.
- 1:11:26Speaker 6: Are there giant monsters in there?
- 1:11:28Speaker 7: No rocks.
- 1:11:28Speaker 2: There is a giant rock. All right. Next up is
- 1:11:32Speaker 2: the most impressive visuals, and this one I threw out
- 1:11:35Speaker 2: as to whatever the hell you want them to be.
- 1:11:37Speaker 2: And somebody came up with an interesting one this time.
- 1:11:40Speaker 2: So I said CG, practical, whatever worked for you this year.
- 1:11:44Speaker 2: Most impressive visuals in a 2017 film. First off, and
- 1:11:48Speaker 2: I will stand by this one, Valerian. I think it's
- 1:11:52Speaker 2: a fun movie because it's not trying to be anything
- 1:11:55Speaker 2: more than what it is. It's definitely a weird cousin
- 1:11:59Speaker 2: to Fifth Element. It's totally in his same universe. But yeah,
- 1:12:04Speaker 2: I think it's just a big... pulpy, kind of dumb
- 1:12:07Speaker 2: sci-fi story that works okay for what it is.
- 1:12:10Speaker 7: I thought it looked fun. I didn't get around to it.
- 1:12:12Speaker 7: I'm not a big Dean DeHaan.
- 1:12:14Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the thing. He's probably the weakest link. That's
- 1:12:17Speaker 2: why I feel like it's in the same universe as
- 1:12:19Speaker 2: Fifth Element, but when your lead in Fifth Element is
- 1:12:23Speaker 2: Bruce Willis, who can be a really good actor, versus Dean.
- 1:12:28Speaker 6: He's still kind of.
- 1:12:29Speaker 2: Finding his footing. He's okay.
- 1:12:31Speaker 7: Chronicle, I think, is the only thing I really like.
- 1:12:33Speaker 7: He was okay in Spider-Man.
- 1:12:35Speaker 2: I mean, the cure for wellness. Like, he fits that role.
- 1:12:39Speaker 7: See, I didn't see that. I wanted to, but I
- 1:12:42Speaker 7: heard mixed things.
- 1:12:42Speaker 2: No, I mean, again, if you go in expecting the
- 1:12:46Speaker 2: right movie, I mean, it is. I thought it was
- 1:12:49Speaker 2: just kind of, I kept comparing it to kind of
- 1:12:52Speaker 2: like a knockoff version of Shutter Island. Because I feel
- 1:12:55Speaker 2: like the first half is kind of that.
- 1:12:57Speaker 8: And that guy looks so much like Leonardo DiCaprio.
- 1:12:59Speaker 2: That too. He kind of wants to be Leonardo, which
- 1:13:01Speaker 2: he's not really.
- 1:13:02Speaker 8: And it ends like a terrible horror movie.
- 1:13:04Speaker 2: It is like off the rails insane. Like if an
- 1:13:08Speaker 2: old Hammer movie was on crack, that's what the end
- 1:13:12Speaker 2: of this becomes. It's insanity.
- 1:13:15Speaker 8: It's almost like a weird psychological movie. And then it
- 1:13:17Speaker 8: becomes like a horrible horror movie.
- 1:13:19Speaker 2: It is a cheesy horror movie. Like not a bad
- 1:13:22Speaker 2: horror movie. I think it's fun. But it is off
- 1:13:25Speaker 2: the rails insane by the end of it.
- 1:13:28Speaker 8: At the end, you're like, what the fuck just happened?
- 1:13:30Speaker 8: This is like a normal movie, and now it's dumb.
- 1:13:32Speaker 2: It is not normal. Yeah, I think that's the one,
- 1:13:33Speaker 2: the guy who.
- 1:13:34Speaker 6: Yeah, Rita Marino, if I may interrupt, has helped together
- 1:13:36Speaker 6: pretty well.
- 1:13:37Speaker 2: Yeah. Sorry. Who is this?
- 1:13:39Speaker 6: Rita Marino.
- 1:13:40Speaker 2: Oh.
- 1:13:41Speaker 8: You keep saying that. I don't know who she is.
- 1:13:43Speaker 7: She was in West Side Story.
- 1:13:44Speaker 6: She was in West Side Story. She's the grandma on
- 1:13:47Speaker 6: the remake of One Day at a Time. Those are
- 1:13:51Speaker 6: two roles I can think of right away, but.
- 1:13:54Speaker 2: I think she's one of those that's won everything, whatever
- 1:13:57Speaker 2: they call that. She's got a Tony. She's got an Oscar.
- 1:13:59Speaker 2: She's got an Emmy. Yeah, I think she's got every
- 1:14:03Speaker 2: award that they've ever handed out.
- 1:14:04Speaker 8: What do they call her, like a unicorn or something?
- 1:14:07Speaker 2: I don't think that's it.
- 1:14:08Speaker 7: Let me think.
- 1:14:08Speaker 6: It's a slightly different.
- 1:14:11Speaker 8: Yeah, I was going to say, no, unicorns are those
- 1:14:13Speaker 8: ladies who move into couples' houses and they're lovers. Isn't
- 1:14:17Speaker 8: that what a unicorn is?
- 1:14:19Speaker 6: Why am I an authority on this?
- 1:14:23Speaker 2: Well, let's ask your unicorn lady, ma'am. Is that how
- 1:14:25Speaker 2: you refer to her?
- 1:14:27Speaker 6: She did. She was. They referred to her as a
- 1:14:30Speaker 6: unicorn when we went to an anime convention because she
- 1:14:34Speaker 6: was one of the only legitimately Asian people. That was
- 1:14:39Speaker 6: there and was also a girl. And the guys there
- 1:14:43Speaker 6: were scared to death of her.
- 1:14:45Speaker 2: I wasn't even talking about that. I was talking about
- 1:14:46Speaker 2: the third old lady you had move in to be
- 1:14:48Speaker 2: with you two. Never mind.
- 1:14:50Speaker 7: She was also the voice of Carmen Sandiego in the cartoon.
- 1:14:53Speaker 6: Oh, shit the bed. Nice.
- 1:14:55Speaker 7: Carmen Sandiego.
- 1:14:56Speaker 8: Do you all remember the Shusha show?
- 1:14:59Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:15:01Speaker 8: I grew up my whole life thinking she was like
- 1:15:02Speaker 8: Czech or something like that.
- 1:15:03Speaker 2: She's Brazilian.
- 1:15:04Speaker 6: She's Brazilian. Oh, yeah.
- 1:15:06Speaker 8: Ruined me.
- 1:15:06Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:15:07Speaker 8: She was just like that mean, weird lady.
- 1:15:09Speaker 6: That was a weird show.
- 1:15:12Speaker 8: It was so fucking weird.
- 1:15:13Speaker 2: A lot of kids' shows are really twisted.
- 1:15:16Speaker 7: I know.
- 1:15:16Speaker 8: That one with the creepy clay-faced guy and the girl
- 1:15:19Speaker 8: with purple hair. Sleepy Town or something.
- 1:15:21Speaker 6: It was like a bad.
- 1:15:24Speaker 2: Plastic Jay Leno and then a girl with pink hair.
- 1:15:30Speaker 2: It made no sense.
- 1:15:32Speaker 7: I saw a meme the other day with that guy
- 1:15:34Speaker 7: on it smiling at the camera and it had a font,
- 1:15:36Speaker 7: like a logo that said Morrissey. Oh, Morrissey. I didn't
- 1:15:43Speaker 7: see any of the foreign language movies this year, by
- 1:15:45Speaker 7: the way. They just gave out the award for that.
- 1:15:47Speaker 8: We watched Veronica the other day. Obviously not nominated for
- 1:15:50Speaker 8: an Oscar, but it was really good.
- 1:15:54Speaker 2: All right. Once again, we outside track. So Valerian. This
- 1:15:58Speaker 2: one was the one I thought was the most interesting
- 1:16:00Speaker 2: for impressive visuals because they went neither of the CG or,
- 1:16:04Speaker 2: I mean, it's practical, but not like an effect like normal.
- 1:16:07Speaker 2: It's just talent and skill and editing. They went with I,
- 1:16:10Speaker 2: Tonya for the skating.
- 1:16:12Speaker 9: Okay.
- 1:16:14Speaker 7: I can see that.
- 1:16:14Speaker 2: I remember watching it going, she's doing really good work.
- 1:16:18Speaker 2: Like as an actress, she learned to skate really well.
- 1:16:21Speaker 2: And when they cut to, I'm assuming, a stunt to
- 1:16:23Speaker 2: be doing triple axels and whatnot, you do not notice.
- 1:16:27Speaker 2: So it's like between her actual skating, bringing in an
- 1:16:30Speaker 2: amazing stunt skater, and great editing, they piece it together perfectly.
- 1:16:35Speaker 7: Don't forget about Sebastian Stan's mustache.
- 1:16:38Speaker 2: That's bad CG. It's a pretty impressive visual. That's CG.
- 1:16:41Speaker 2: It's the reverse Superman. We'll get to that.
- 1:16:43Speaker 7: I read in, I think it was the IMDb trivia,
- 1:16:46Speaker 7: that to get her hair, Margot Robbie's hair, it's a wig.
- 1:16:50Speaker 7: But they also drenched it in beer and soaked it
- 1:16:53Speaker 7: in beer for a while just to get that crunchy
- 1:16:55Speaker 7: Tanya look.
- 1:16:56Speaker 2: That does seem fitting. No offense to Tanya. She did
- 1:17:00Speaker 2: have a rough life. That doesn't make it okay. Okay,
- 1:17:03Speaker 2: next up. Most impressive visuals. I like that this was
- 1:17:06Speaker 2: just in general. Just Star Wars in general. Although one
- 1:17:11Speaker 2: of them did specifically single out the fact that BB-8
- 1:17:16Speaker 2: is practical. is still amazing to them. I'm like, yeah,
- 1:17:20Speaker 2: I'll give you it. It doesn't seem like that should work,
- 1:17:23Speaker 2: and yet I see it work in the real world.
- 1:17:25Speaker 7: Say what you will about the salt planet, that it
- 1:17:26Speaker 7: looked awesome.
- 1:17:27Speaker 8: So BB-8's not a CGI. I think BB-8's a real robot.
- 1:17:30Speaker 2: It's a robot, yeah. They built that thing to actually
- 1:17:32Speaker 2: do that.
- 1:17:33Speaker 8: That's awesome.
- 1:17:33Speaker 2: It's amazing, yeah.
- 1:17:34Speaker 7: We have a BB-8 at the library, a robot you
- 1:17:37Speaker 7: can kind of program.
- 1:17:39Speaker 2: Does it look like BB-8, or is it just like
- 1:17:41Speaker 2: a box with a cart?
- 1:17:42Speaker 7: No, it's a, yeah. No, it's an official BB-8. It's
- 1:17:47Speaker 7: definitely not of the quality they use in film.
- 1:17:48Speaker 2: I assumed it was most government-funded programs. It's just a
- 1:17:52Speaker 2: big box with a logo on the side, and it
- 1:17:55Speaker 2: just pushes a book cart around all day. It squeaks
- 1:17:59Speaker 2: with a.
- 1:17:59Speaker 7: Little Butterfinger BB.
- 1:18:01Speaker 2: Yeah, this all seems fine. All right, so this next up,
- 1:18:06Speaker 2: the runner-up, many votes for The Shape of Water, which
- 1:18:10Speaker 2: I kind of would have gone with. It's pretty phenomenal, the...
- 1:18:14Speaker 2: overall look just the general cinematography and everything else involved
- 1:18:19Speaker 2: not to mention amazing makeup work on our own Doug
- 1:18:23Speaker 2: so all.
- 1:18:23Speaker 8: The colors massive so much green.
- 1:18:26Speaker 2: Yeah massive shades of green and brown and it's it's
- 1:18:30Speaker 2: a weird earthy movie I went to.
- 1:18:31Speaker 7: The Kentucky to see that it was like a perfect
- 1:18:33Speaker 7: theater for.
- 1:18:34Speaker 8: That movie oh yeah I feel like Jennifer Lawrence gets
- 1:18:37Speaker 8: so much credit for being Kentucky's Angel, but, I mean,
- 1:18:39Speaker 8: Michael Shannon fucking killing it.
- 1:18:42Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:18:42Speaker 2: He's in everything now, too.
- 1:18:43Speaker 8: I love Michael Shannon, but he makes me hate him
- 1:18:46Speaker 8: in so many movies. And I love.
- 1:18:49Speaker 2: Michael.
- 1:18:49Speaker 8: I think he's like so funny and so talented and
- 1:18:51Speaker 8: he's just like great at serious roles and scary roles
- 1:18:55Speaker 8: but like I was like praying for his death in
- 1:18:58Speaker 8: that movie and you know like it's like it's like
- 1:19:04Speaker 8: a pretty impressive feat for someone that you really like
- 1:19:07Speaker 8: as an actor to like be like oh his.
- 1:19:10Speaker 7: Wtf was really good yeah and also did y'all see
- 1:19:13Speaker 7: the viral video of him reading the sorority.
- 1:19:15Speaker 8: Yes oh that's so good yes so good.
- 1:19:17Speaker 2: Well every time i see him which makes me think
- 1:19:19Speaker 2: i really want him on our show he's just so
- 1:19:22Speaker 2: weird and awkward and like every time he's on a
- 1:19:25Speaker 2: normal talk show and most people just kind of know
- 1:19:27Speaker 2: how they go and they fall into their thing but
- 1:19:30Speaker 2: He still just seems kind of generally weird and awkward.
- 1:19:34Speaker 2: That's his normal personality. He just can't hide it. But
- 1:19:38Speaker 2: he's got a real weird sense of humor to him too.
- 1:19:44Speaker 2: He seems kind of awesome.
- 1:19:45Speaker 8: He kind of seems like the person that would tell
- 1:19:48Speaker 8: a really awkward joke and then just roll with it
- 1:19:53Speaker 8: and you wouldn't know if he was joking or not
- 1:19:55Speaker 8: and it would just be the most uncomfortable thing. He
- 1:19:58Speaker 8: seems like that.
- 1:19:59Speaker 2: Yeah, it is on our Shape of Water comment there.
- 1:20:03Speaker 2: It is weird that even this person who voted said,
- 1:20:07Speaker 2: costume makeup goes to Shape of Water for the creature
- 1:20:10Speaker 2: hands down. It got all these Oscar nominations, but none
- 1:20:13Speaker 2: for costume and makeup? That is kind of weird. For
- 1:20:17Speaker 2: that kind of movie, it's weird that it got all
- 1:20:19Speaker 2: the other fancy high-end awards that it did. but not
- 1:20:22Speaker 2: for the one that you would assume it would be.
- 1:20:24Speaker 8: Right, because, like, costume and the makeup, like, the costumes
- 1:20:27Speaker 8: were so symbolic. Like, the movie wouldn't have had the
- 1:20:29Speaker 8: effect it had without, like, the costume was such an
- 1:20:32Speaker 8: important place on, like, the colors of her dress and,
- 1:20:36Speaker 8: you know, so it's really weird.
- 1:20:38Speaker 2: But not the winner. And I will say this is
- 1:20:42Speaker 2: the winner by the biggest margin in this entire thing.
- 1:20:47Speaker 2: Almost half of the voters voted specifically for this one movie.
- 1:20:51Speaker 2: And the winner is Blade Runner 2049. I can't argue.
- 1:20:55Speaker 2: It looks pretty damned impressive. It's, again... What?
- 1:20:59Speaker 8: Is that... Is that Debbie? What the fuck is Debbie
- 1:21:03Speaker 8: doing on this?
- 1:21:04Speaker 7: Oh, it's the Roseanne trailer for those folks listening.
- 1:21:06Speaker 2: Sorry.
- 1:21:08Speaker 8: What the fuck is Debbie doing on Roseanne? Is she
- 1:21:10Speaker 8: the daughter? She's from Shameless. She's the worst character on Shameless.
- 1:21:15Speaker 6: I think she's Darlene's daughter.
- 1:21:17Speaker 8: That actually makes a lot of sense. Because she literally
- 1:21:20Speaker 8: looks just like Darlene, but she's literally the worst ever.
- 1:21:24Speaker 12: It's too bad Mark just couldn't join the cast.
- 1:21:26Speaker 7: Right.
- 1:21:26Speaker 8: He's too busy.
- 1:21:27Speaker 9: Being dead.
- 1:21:28Speaker 2: He's too dead. Oh, he died?
- 1:21:30Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
- 1:21:31Speaker 8: In real life?
- 1:21:32Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:21:33Speaker 13: Oh.
- 1:21:34Speaker 2: There's a reason. He didn't go on to do extra
- 1:21:37Speaker 2: seasons of Angel.
- 1:21:38Speaker 7: Because he was busy being dead.
- 1:21:41Speaker 8: David's still alive. He's just like a big shot now.
- 1:21:43Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. He doesn't need that shit. He makes more
- 1:21:46Speaker 2: money than everybody on Roseanne.
- 1:21:47Speaker 10: Right.
- 1:21:48Speaker 2: Minus Dan. but he probably makes more than Roseanne does
- 1:21:51Speaker 2: these days on her walnuts or whatever the hell she does.
- 1:21:55Speaker 8: I think it's macadamia.
- 1:21:56Speaker 2: Whatever. In particular, we had one comment that I can't
- 1:22:02Speaker 2: argue with. Standing on the shoulders of giants, but Blade
- 1:22:06Speaker 2: Runner 2049 got it right. Ghost in the Shell got
- 1:22:08Speaker 2: it all wrong. It's a little harsh on Ghost in
- 1:22:12Speaker 2: the Shell's visuals, at least. It looked fine, but yeah.
- 1:22:16Speaker 2: I like the... Standing on the shoulders of giants. I mean,
- 1:22:19Speaker 2: Blade Runner is kind of half the reason most sci-fi
- 1:22:22Speaker 2: movies are what they are now.
- 1:22:24Speaker 7: Is this a supporting actress or actor that we got
- 1:22:27Speaker 7: up here?
- 1:22:27Speaker 8: Is Anne Jack yet for a supporting actress role?
- 1:22:29Speaker 2: She is, actually.
- 1:22:30Speaker 8: That's awesome.
- 1:22:32Speaker 6: I don't know.
- 1:22:32Speaker 8: I'm kind of torn. I really love Octavia Spencer.
- 1:22:35Speaker 2: I feel like she doesn't have that much to do
- 1:22:37Speaker 2: in this movie, though. She's good, though. I think she's good,
- 1:22:40Speaker 2: but I'm like, for five nominations for them to give
- 1:22:44Speaker 2: her one, I'm like, I don't know. She's good at
- 1:22:47Speaker 2: what little screen time she has, but like.
- 1:22:50Speaker 8: I don't think her screen time was insignificant. I feel
- 1:22:53Speaker 8: like she had a good portion of it, you know?
- 1:22:56Speaker 2: We'll see. Yeah. I was like, I don't know how
- 1:22:59Speaker 2: you beat that.
- 1:23:00Speaker 6: Yeah, that was amazing.
- 1:23:01Speaker 2: She is vicious in the movie.
- 1:23:04Speaker 6: She's good at vicious characters. I mean.
- 1:23:07Speaker 2: She's good at everything. Even the mom version of her
- 1:23:11Speaker 2: is the sitcom lovable version, but she's still kind of horrible.
- 1:23:15Speaker 8: It's such a weird world now to think 20 years ago,
- 1:23:18Speaker 8: you would not be on a sitcom while winning an Oscar.
- 1:23:23Speaker 8: It's such a strange.
- 1:23:25Speaker 2: It's crossed over to the point where you can have
- 1:23:28Speaker 2: a top 10 album on the internet charts now and
- 1:23:32Speaker 2: be making... a TV series and be like, like the
- 1:23:35Speaker 2: fact that you can cross over as much as you
- 1:23:37Speaker 2: can now is insanity.
- 1:23:39Speaker 8: Well, like I feel like the Oscars used to be
- 1:23:41Speaker 8: really like hottie and like, you can't like, if you were,
- 1:23:46Speaker 8: if you were on a television show, like you're beneath
- 1:23:50Speaker 8: the Oscars, like they would never even consider you. But
- 1:23:53Speaker 8: now it's like, you can have a fucking, and like,
- 1:23:57Speaker 8: I don't, I don't watch that show. It's like one
- 1:23:58Speaker 8: of those, like, laugh track kind of shows that I
- 1:24:02Speaker 8: can't stand.
- 1:24:03Speaker 2: It's better than most, but it's still standard.
- 1:24:07Speaker 8: It's a sitcom, not like Breaking Bad or something like
- 1:24:10Speaker 8: if it were a movie, it would be winning awards
- 1:24:11Speaker 8: left and right, like Oscars. It's just a sitcom, you know?
- 1:24:15Speaker 8: So like, it's really weird that a person on a
- 1:24:18Speaker 8: regular ass sitcom is winning.
- 1:24:20Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 1:24:22Speaker 2: Simultaneously not that she hasn't been around for years and
- 1:24:25Speaker 2: hasn't been great in lots of other stuff but i
- 1:24:27Speaker 2: feel like it's that silly sitcom that got her this
- 1:24:30Speaker 2: role it's that sitcom that put her back in the
- 1:24:33Speaker 2: spotlight big enough to get kind of launched and it
- 1:24:36Speaker 2: helps that she really kind of looks like that crazy
- 1:24:38Speaker 2: old lady yeah but like.
- 1:24:40Speaker 7: The cast was straight up perfect it's yeah it's shocking
- 1:24:43Speaker 7: i was a kid when this happened but i was
- 1:24:45Speaker 7: old enough to.
- 1:24:46Speaker 2: Be aware of it um And they all look just like... Right,
- 1:24:49Speaker 2: I can.
- 1:24:49Speaker 7: Remember what everybody looked like, but they showed the stuff at.
- 1:24:51Speaker 8: The end, and yeah, it's... I remember my family being like, eh,
- 1:24:54Speaker 8: that Nancy Kerrigan bitch probably deserved it. I'm just like, okay,
- 1:24:58Speaker 8: I don't know, whatever.
- 1:25:01Speaker 2: Tanya was also living next door to a different trailer,
- 1:25:03Speaker 2: but that's... Right.
- 1:25:04Speaker 8: What are you trying to say about my family, Brian?
- 1:25:06Speaker 2: They're really good ice skaters.
- 1:25:09Speaker 7: So what's this Walmart box stuff? Long line of.
- 1:25:13Speaker 7: This box from Walmart, is that like a button in
- 1:25:16Speaker 7: there where you can hit it?
- 1:25:17Speaker 2: I think so. Yeah, somebody dies. But you get to pick,
- 1:25:20Speaker 2: you know. Do you want a million dollars or do
- 1:25:22Speaker 2: you want somebody to die? Which is it?
- 1:25:26Speaker 6: I would like both. Is it one or the other?
- 1:25:31Speaker 2: That's usually how it goes, yeah. You hit the button,
- 1:25:34Speaker 2: you've made your choice.
- 1:25:34Speaker 7: Is that where the millionaire comes in?
- 1:25:35Speaker 6: But you get the million.
- 1:25:37Speaker 2: You get the million.
- 1:25:38Speaker 6: And someone dies.
- 1:25:39Speaker 2: And someone dies. But you don't get to pick.
- 1:25:41Speaker 6: But you were saying it like it's an either-or.
- 1:25:45Speaker 2: You say that, but that's how this scenario works.
- 1:25:47Speaker 6: Which, talk about movies with shitty endings.
- 1:25:50Speaker 2: Well, that just changed its own movie about a third
- 1:25:55Speaker 2: of the way. It wasn't even like halfway. What are
- 1:25:56Speaker 2: we talking about? The box. It's like it takes the
- 1:26:00Speaker 2: general idea that they stole from something else and makes
- 1:26:03Speaker 2: it the first half hour and then goes, all right, well,
- 1:26:06Speaker 2: we got to make this a feature length. So, I
- 1:26:08Speaker 2: don't know, make up another hour of stuff. And it just...
- 1:26:12Speaker 2: goes off in its own weird ass.
- 1:26:14Speaker 6: Make it as dumb as you possibly can.
- 1:26:16Speaker 7: What could have saved that movie is if in the
- 1:26:18Speaker 7: beginning the box was delivered to Brad Pitt first.
- 1:26:22Speaker 8: I don't know anything about this movie. I've never heard
- 1:26:24Speaker 8: of it.
- 1:26:24Speaker 7: It's an old Richard Matheson story. I think... It was
- 1:26:29Speaker 7: a Twilight Zone episode.
- 1:26:29Speaker 2: It's kind of Twilight Zone-y in its premise. I don't
- 1:26:32Speaker 2: think it was.
- 1:26:33Speaker 7: I was thinking it was an episode that they adapted
- 1:26:35Speaker 7: into the movie.
- 1:26:36Speaker 2: It might have probably. It was one of the... I
- 1:26:38Speaker 2: can't remember.
- 1:26:38Speaker 7: It was a short story, and I think the short
- 1:26:40Speaker 7: story was adapted to Twilight Zone, and I think that was... Yeah,
- 1:26:43Speaker 7: the Twilight Zone episode.
- 1:26:43Speaker 2: But again, Twilight Zone is half an hour with commercials,
- 1:26:47Speaker 2: so when they hit that point, it just stops being
- 1:26:51Speaker 2: that movie and becomes an entirely different crazy movie.
- 1:26:56Speaker 7: I hate to keep bringing up memes, but... I saw
- 1:26:58Speaker 7: one with Rod Serling the other day that said, imagine
- 1:27:01Speaker 7: a mirror that was black.
- 1:27:05Speaker 2: They need to just write him a check every day.
- 1:27:07Speaker 2: His family needs to be getting kickbacks for that show.
- 1:27:09Speaker 8: Does he have family?
- 1:27:11Speaker 6: Probably.
- 1:27:11Speaker 2: I think he had a kid, yeah. All right, so
- 1:27:16Speaker 2: next up is the most obnoxious use of CGI in
- 1:27:19Speaker 2: a 2017 movie. See, everybody expected this one, but I
- 1:27:22Speaker 2: wanted to put a good one in with the good visuals,
- 1:27:25Speaker 2: but this is what everybody comes back to. So, first
- 1:27:29Speaker 2: up is.
- 1:27:29Speaker 6: Hey, BB-8.
- 1:27:31Speaker 2: There we go.
- 1:27:32Speaker 10: See?
- 1:27:32Speaker 2: He's a real thing. Look at him. He's not CG.
- 1:27:35Speaker 2: He touched him.
- 1:27:36Speaker 8: That is really cool how he moves. I can't remember. Magnets?
- 1:27:42Speaker 7: There's someone in there.
- 1:27:42Speaker 2: Magic? Kenny Baker?
- 1:27:44Speaker 8: I don't know.
- 1:27:46Speaker 7: Alright, anyway.
- 1:27:47Speaker 6: Hey, do not speak ill of the late Kenny Baker.
- 1:27:49Speaker 7: He's being controlled by a disembodied head.
- 1:27:51Speaker 2: Rest in peace, Kenny Baker. Kenny Baker's spirit was transferred
- 1:27:56Speaker 2: into BB-8.
- 1:27:58Speaker 6: Oh, that's okay.
- 1:27:59Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. I kind of like that, actually. That's a good... Actually,
- 1:28:02Speaker 2: that's probably like hell for you. It's like, damn it.
- 1:28:04Speaker 2: I've spent my entire life inside one of these damn
- 1:28:07Speaker 2: tin cans. For the love of God, let me rest
- 1:28:10Speaker 2: in peace. Don't you put my soul in this thing.
- 1:28:14Speaker 2: So we're working on a new movie where we transfer
- 1:28:16Speaker 2: the soul of people into a robot. Let's do that
- 1:28:19Speaker 2: after Dinosaur Mummy.
- 1:28:20Speaker 6: Dinosaur Mummy comes first.
- 1:28:21Speaker 2: Gotta get that first.
- 1:28:22Speaker 6: And then... We'll transfer.
- 1:28:25Speaker 2: Transferring souls into robots.
- 1:28:27Speaker 10: Okay.
- 1:28:27Speaker 7: Okay.
- 1:28:28Speaker 2: We got work to do. All right. The most obnoxious
- 1:28:31Speaker 2: use of CGI in a 2017 film. First up, and
- 1:28:35Speaker 2: I think this is funny because one of the nominations
- 1:28:37Speaker 2: came from the same person who put it on the
- 1:28:38Speaker 2: impressive side. Valerian. I'm like, yeah, I liked it all right,
- 1:28:44Speaker 2: but I could see both of those. I can see
- 1:28:47Speaker 2: it on the other side too. Next up, the young,
- 1:28:51Speaker 2: I'm using quotes, young Johnny Depp in Pirates of the Caribbean,
- 1:28:55Speaker 2: Dead Men Tell No Tales. Dead men also continue to
- 1:28:59Speaker 2: get older and older, so they have to CG your
- 1:29:02Speaker 2: face for flashbacks, and you look creepy.
- 1:29:05Speaker 8: Johnny Depp does look creepy.
- 1:29:07Speaker 2: He looks creepy anyway, and kind of is creepy.
- 1:29:10Speaker 8: His face turned to putty.
- 1:29:12Speaker 7: Once Burroughs' favorite son.
- 1:29:14Speaker 2: He doesn't think so, though.
- 1:29:16Speaker 8: Doesn't he have family that still lives there?
- 1:29:18Speaker 2: Nah, mom died.
- 1:29:19Speaker 8: His mom died?
- 1:29:20Speaker 7: I think there's some distant family, because I remember there
- 1:29:23Speaker 7: was something in the paper once.
- 1:29:27Speaker 7: It was just about celebrities from around the area and
- 1:29:29Speaker 7: they said he had came back when his grandmother passed
- 1:29:31Speaker 7: away or something. So I think some distant family is
- 1:29:33Speaker 7: still around there.
- 1:29:35Speaker 12: Speaking about everything you can do sitcoms, movies, and you
- 1:29:38Speaker 12: can even be a basketball player and.
- 1:29:40Speaker 2: Win an Oscar. There's just no more boundaries.
- 1:29:45Speaker 7: It was an animated short film something about deer basketball
- 1:29:48Speaker 7: or something like that.
- 1:29:51Speaker 8: I mean, I'm just a regular ass person. When do
- 1:29:54Speaker 8: I get to win my Oscar?
- 1:29:56Speaker 2: Submit for next year I can get you a foiler
- 1:29:59Speaker 2: if that's what you're looking for I can hook you
- 1:30:02Speaker 2: up got the inside track just saying I have a
- 1:30:08Speaker 2: whole fleet of them at home they're hard to come
- 1:30:12Speaker 2: by just saying alright so this one I think on
- 1:30:19Speaker 2: the episode I made this kind of similar comment Wonder
- 1:30:24Speaker 2: Woman And specifically, their giant CG muscle body, tiny little
- 1:30:30Speaker 2: David Thewlis head. That was my main problem. I love
- 1:30:34Speaker 2: Wonder Woman, don't get me wrong. She in particular is badass.
- 1:30:37Speaker 2: Most of the story, the directing, but the CG villain,
- 1:30:41Speaker 2: as I bitch about on many superhero movies, the bullshit
- 1:30:44Speaker 2: CG villain wrap up is a nightmare in that one.
- 1:30:47Speaker 2: And that stupid CG character at the end, poor David
- 1:30:51Speaker 2: Thewlis being thrown in the middle of it, but.
- 1:30:54Speaker 6: Yeah, it looks terrible. But at least we only had
- 1:30:56Speaker 6: to put up with it for the last half hour.
- 1:30:57Speaker 6: It wasn't like Steppenwolf.
- 1:31:00Speaker 2: Which was the whole damn movie.
- 1:31:01Speaker 6: We had to look at every 15 minutes.
- 1:31:02Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a nightmare.
- 1:31:05Speaker 7: Should have had the band Steppenwolf.
- 1:31:09Speaker 2: Next up, Star Wars, The Last Jedi. Specifically for the
- 1:31:14Speaker 2: space horses is what one person. And actually they named them.
- 1:31:18Speaker 2: It's sad. I'm a geek. But they put them by
- 1:31:21Speaker 2: name and I went, what the fuck? Oh, wait. I
- 1:31:24Speaker 2: looked it up. They were right. That is their name. What? Fathers? F-A-T-H-I-E-R-S.
- 1:31:30Speaker 7: That sounds like the name of a religious cult.
- 1:31:32Speaker 2: Join the club. Be a space horse. Another person wrote
- 1:31:38Speaker 2: in specifically, that casino garbage... it's like all right well
- 1:31:44Speaker 2: yeah we all kind of.
- 1:31:45Speaker 8: Yeah they always have to throw that in every fucking
- 1:31:48Speaker 8: star wars movie it's just like that stupid.
- 1:31:50Speaker 2: The bar race well the pod race in the first
- 1:31:53Speaker 2: one the bar in the second one with the death
- 1:31:55Speaker 2: stick dealers and they just i don't know they're busy
- 1:31:59Speaker 2: trying to create that universe that they got so much
- 1:32:02Speaker 2: like recognition for in the first three But now they're
- 1:32:06Speaker 2: going out of their way to do it and it
- 1:32:07Speaker 2: seems massively unnatural.
- 1:32:09Speaker 6: Yeah, because in... You know, in A New Hope, that
- 1:32:13Speaker 6: bar was interesting and it was its own world.
- 1:32:16Speaker 2: And downplayed. Yeah, downplayed.
- 1:32:19Speaker 6: But the casino in Last Jedi could have been like
- 1:32:22Speaker 6: a casino on Earth with the exception of the way
- 1:32:24Speaker 6: some of the people look.
- 1:32:25Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not really.
- 1:32:26Speaker 6: Go to Vegas. I don't go to Star Wars. Go
- 1:32:28Speaker 6: to Vegas.
- 1:32:29Speaker 2: It's not much different.
- 1:32:30Speaker 6: I don't watch Star Wars because I want to see reality.
- 1:32:33Speaker 2: Even the crazy aliens go to Vegas. But no, none
- 1:32:37Speaker 2: of those came close to... And no surprise, we brought
- 1:32:41Speaker 2: it up earlier. And the winner is Justice League. Yes.
- 1:32:45Speaker 2: There was more than one mention of the missing mustache.
- 1:32:50Speaker 2: But that aside, this was my favorite comment outside of that.
- 1:32:54Speaker 2: It says, all the unnecessary CGI in Justice League. I
- 1:32:58Speaker 2: know everyone is going to say the mustache or Steppenwolf,
- 1:33:01Speaker 2: but that is actually kind of less distracting to me
- 1:33:04Speaker 2: than the titanic level of CGI of Alfred on the
- 1:33:07Speaker 2: Lake when the heroes are getting on the helicopter.
- 1:33:09Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:33:10Speaker 7: That was pretty bad.
- 1:33:11Speaker 2: I don't remember that one. Now, damn it, I'm going
- 1:33:14Speaker 2: to have to rent it when it comes out just
- 1:33:16Speaker 2: to watch how bad that CG is now. I think
- 1:33:19Speaker 2: that's the kid that was in it. Did Coco win?
- 1:33:21Speaker 8: I think so, yeah.
- 1:33:22Speaker 2: Yes.
- 1:33:23Speaker 8: I never watched it, but it looked really pretty.
- 1:33:26Speaker 2: I was surprised how good it was. I'm glad I
- 1:33:29Speaker 2: went to see it because it, again, I assumed just
- 1:33:32Speaker 2: because of the topic I was going to be suckered
- 1:33:34Speaker 2: in because skeletons and weird day of the dead Mexican,
- 1:33:38Speaker 2: all of it. I'm always kind of interested in that,
- 1:33:41Speaker 2: but it also had this weird story that several times,
- 1:33:45Speaker 2: like for a kids movie, I'm like, okay, I didn't
- 1:33:48Speaker 2: see that coming. It takes a weird turn and at
- 1:33:50Speaker 2: one point a really dark turn and then I'm like, okay,
- 1:33:54Speaker 2: like granted it's Disney more or less, so they can
- 1:33:57Speaker 2: go as dark as they want to, but.
- 1:33:59Speaker 8: There was a movie just like that. I don't know
- 1:34:01Speaker 8: just like it, but like.
- 1:34:02Speaker 2: Just the year before. Well, again, it's what all those
- 1:34:04Speaker 2: animators do.
- 1:34:04Speaker 8: A few years ago.
- 1:34:05Speaker 2: They all do.
- 1:34:06Speaker 8: Yeah, like, what is it? The Shrek Studios always does.
- 1:34:11Speaker 2: Yeah, Filmation does one, and then for a while, Pixar
- 1:34:15Speaker 2: was trying to do the same thing, and then they
- 1:34:16Speaker 2: all got bought out by the same company. But now, yeah,
- 1:34:19Speaker 2: DreamWorks will do a knockoff version, and then There's a
- 1:34:22Speaker 2: third one now that does it. So everybody competes to
- 1:34:25Speaker 2: do more or less the same.
- 1:34:26Speaker 8: Well, yeah, like A Bug's Life and Ant.
- 1:34:28Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:34:28Speaker 2: It all came out at the same time.
- 1:34:30Speaker 8: Yeah. I mean, they used to do that on purpose.
- 1:34:31Speaker 8: And now I feel like they don't. Well, like some
- 1:34:33Speaker 8: of the DreamWorks stuff got as big.
- 1:34:35Speaker 2: I think a lot of them start at the same time.
- 1:34:39Speaker 2: But then that's the thing. That other one probably started
- 1:34:42Speaker 2: at the same time. But Pixar took a hell of
- 1:34:45Speaker 2: a lot more time doing theirs probably than the other
- 1:34:48Speaker 2: knockoff companies. So. That's why this one looks so damn good.
- 1:34:51Speaker 2: And it does.
- 1:34:52Speaker 8: I love children's movies that are super bright and colorful
- 1:34:55Speaker 8: and just like, like a magical world. Like that movie.
- 1:34:58Speaker 8: You didn't get to go see Mary and the witch's
- 1:35:00Speaker 8: flower was like, like it was all in Japanese and
- 1:35:04Speaker 8: Lydia could not understand a word of it. And we
- 1:35:06Speaker 8: were like, oh shit. And we're like, do you, do
- 1:35:08Speaker 8: you still want to stay? And she was like, yeah, fine.
- 1:35:10Speaker 8: And she like stayed and watched the whole movie. So
- 1:35:15Speaker 8: you can kind of understand what was going on just
- 1:35:16Speaker 8: because it was like so colorful. And so like, um,
- 1:35:19Speaker 8: acted out. So, yeah.
- 1:35:21Speaker 7: It's crazy to me that Sufjan Stevens is on the Oscars.
- 1:35:24Speaker 7: I've been following him, well, I kind of lost touch
- 1:35:26Speaker 7: with him, but he was like in Danielson Family and
- 1:35:28Speaker 7: all these like weird bands and things on the stage
- 1:35:31Speaker 7: at the Academy Awards. Good job, Sufjan.
- 1:35:36Speaker 2: He may have gotten referenced on their last episode.
- 1:35:39Speaker 4: All right.
- 1:35:40Speaker 2: So, this is the one I'm going to throw out
- 1:35:41Speaker 2: as a, do we need to, actually, I readjusted the
- 1:35:45Speaker 2: wording this year and we got totally different answers because
- 1:35:48Speaker 2: of it. So now I'm like, is there an offshoot
- 1:35:50Speaker 2: category that we need? It used to just be, because
- 1:35:54Speaker 2: it stemmed from early days when we had a person
- 1:35:57Speaker 2: that used to be on the show that would use
- 1:35:59Speaker 2: phrases like, he kills good. So I came up with
- 1:36:03Speaker 2: best death in a movie. Or best kill. So then
- 1:36:08Speaker 2: I changed it this year and added death to it.
- 1:36:10Speaker 2: So it was kill slash death, whatever. But now I
- 1:36:13Speaker 2: feel like people started taking it a totally different way.
- 1:36:16Speaker 2: Because before it used to be like, whatever cool jason
- 1:36:19Speaker 2: kill you liked in your horror movie like that was
- 1:36:21Speaker 2: the best kill but then when i added death in
- 1:36:24Speaker 2: now it became people voting for almost like the most
- 1:36:27Speaker 2: noble character death or like heroic death to go out
- 1:36:31Speaker 2: on for a character i don't know i think they
- 1:36:32Speaker 2: took it a totally different way so i don't know
- 1:36:35Speaker 2: you guys tell me if you want to readjust this
- 1:36:37Speaker 2: category and which way you want to go with it
- 1:36:40Speaker 2: i like he kills good but whatever So and on
- 1:36:43Speaker 2: that spoiler alert, because it's hard to tell any of
- 1:36:47Speaker 2: these without spoiling the hell out of whatever is about
- 1:36:49Speaker 2: to happen here. So just fair warning. I'm telling you
- 1:36:52Speaker 2: right now. So first up is and I did just
- 1:36:56Speaker 2: watch this. It's entertaining. Happy Death Day. Their comment is
- 1:37:00Speaker 2: there were multiple kills and they were all just outright fun.
- 1:37:03Speaker 2: I have to agree with that. It's not a great movie,
- 1:37:06Speaker 2: but it's entertaining. If you like time loop movies, it's fun.
- 1:37:11Speaker 8: So many of those.
- 1:37:12Speaker 2: There's a lot of those. What's funny is on the,
- 1:37:15Speaker 2: if you rent Happy Death Day, on the trailers at
- 1:37:18Speaker 2: the beginning is the other one that just came in
- 1:37:20Speaker 2: with Lea Thompson Jr.
- 1:37:22Speaker 7: In it.
- 1:37:22Speaker 2: Whatever the real movie name is, I don't remember. But that's,
- 1:37:25Speaker 2: I mean, there was another time loop movie about a
- 1:37:28Speaker 2: teenage girl at the front of the movie that you
- 1:37:30Speaker 2: just rented. It's a time loop movie about a teenage-ish girl.
- 1:37:34Speaker 2: That's weird. Anyway. Yeah, next up, this is the one
- 1:37:37Speaker 2: I thought was going to be the answer for this
- 1:37:41Speaker 2: category for the year. It's what everybody was talking about.
- 1:37:44Speaker 2: It was kind of a frontrunner at the beginning and
- 1:37:46Speaker 2: then totally died. So we still got votes for Snoke
- 1:37:51Speaker 2: in The Last Jedi. That's the one everybody was talking about.
- 1:37:56Speaker 6: Nope, nope.
- 1:37:56Speaker 2: After a while, nobody cared anymore. This one... Again, spoilers,
- 1:38:02Speaker 2: but I do like that the person who voted for
- 1:38:04Speaker 2: it worded it like it's in the middle of a
- 1:38:06Speaker 2: game of Clue. Chris, in the rec room with the
- 1:38:10Speaker 2: antlers in Get Out. I do want to create a
- 1:38:15Speaker 2: Get Out Clue board game. That would be awesome. There's
- 1:38:19Speaker 2: a special edition waiting to be made. Just saying. Milton Bradley,
- 1:38:22Speaker 2: get a hold of me. This one, once again, it's
- 1:38:26Speaker 2: hard for this not to get categorized in the best
- 1:38:28Speaker 2: kill option here. Every kill in John Wick 2, which
- 1:38:34Speaker 2: you can't count that high. They do more than one
- 1:38:37Speaker 2: person specifically mentioned the pencil kills.
- 1:38:40Speaker 7: Have you seen it?
- 1:38:42Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, people love people dying with pencils. That's
- 1:38:45Speaker 2: all they really want in the world. So this one.
- 1:38:50Speaker 2: Again I think it's taking it the more serious route
- 1:38:53Speaker 2: pencil kills is the way this category used to go
- 1:38:56Speaker 2: this time and the winner is Logan in Logan it's
- 1:39:01Speaker 2: more of like a big heroic character arc kind of
- 1:39:05Speaker 2: a end than silly because I feel like a lot
- 1:39:09Speaker 2: of them we had votes for like Yondu and I'm
- 1:39:11Speaker 2: like that's definitely a big heroic send-off and Several people
- 1:39:16Speaker 2: mentioned Professor X as well. So I don't know. I
- 1:39:19Speaker 2: don't know which way to take it. So you guys
- 1:39:22Speaker 2: let me know how you want to do this for
- 1:39:23Speaker 2: future years. But Logan. All right. Best villain in a
- 1:39:29Speaker 2: 2017 film. More than one person. This is why I
- 1:39:33Speaker 2: like this whole thing. I like hearing what you guys
- 1:39:36Speaker 2: come up with. More than one person voted for the
- 1:39:39Speaker 2: rich white people in Get Out. I like our listeners.
- 1:39:46Speaker 2: Here you go, Marlena. Michael Shannon in The Shape of Water.
- 1:39:49Speaker 8: I was going to say, it's probably a tie for
- 1:39:50Speaker 8: me between the rich white people and Michael Shannon.
- 1:39:53Speaker 6: This one- He was a rich white person.
- 1:39:56Speaker 2: Yeah, right. He was. This one caught me off guard,
- 1:39:59Speaker 2: and I give him credit for digging into a lesser
- 1:40:03Speaker 2: seen movie, and it's very fitting and weird for this person,
- 1:40:06Speaker 2: Jason Sudeikis in Colossal. Did you see Colossal?
- 1:40:10Speaker 8: I didn't.
- 1:40:10Speaker 2: I hear good things. He's a dick. Like, and that's,
- 1:40:14Speaker 2: I think why I guess it was the perfect casting
- 1:40:16Speaker 2: because he's her friend and he's supposed to be her friend.
- 1:40:19Speaker 2: And as the story goes on, like he just becomes
- 1:40:23Speaker 2: this really weird characters.
- 1:40:25Speaker 8: So I don't think I've seen that one.
- 1:40:30Speaker 2: Um, yeah, it's like a, almost like a modernized Godzilla idea,
- 1:40:34Speaker 2: but it only happens like it's Anne Hathaway and she like,
- 1:40:39Speaker 2: seems weird goes to that's the thing she goes to
- 1:40:41Speaker 2: this one weird spot and whatever she's doing in this
- 1:40:45Speaker 2: spot a creature appears on the other side of the
- 1:40:48Speaker 2: planet and is a giant version of her so whatever
- 1:40:52Speaker 2: she's doing in this spot in america on the other
- 1:40:55Speaker 2: side of the world she's knocking over buildings when she
- 1:40:58Speaker 2: flails her arm around and so she sees it on
- 1:41:00Speaker 2: the news is like what the hell like that it's
- 1:41:03Speaker 2: doing a real specific thing that I was doing last night.
- 1:41:06Speaker 2: How the hell did this happen? So it's a lot
- 1:41:08Speaker 2: of other weird, deep seated kind of dealing with like
- 1:41:11Speaker 2: personal issues. When she left home as a kid, there's
- 1:41:14Speaker 2: a lot of people hanging at a bar. So there's
- 1:41:16Speaker 2: some underlying alcoholism going on. So there's other things, but
- 1:41:20Speaker 2: there's also scenes of giant monsters destroying cities. So, and
- 1:41:24Speaker 2: a robot. So that, that's the other one.
- 1:41:26Speaker 6: Everyone leaves the theater.
- 1:41:27Speaker 2: Yeah, pretty much. It's, it's a, Interesting story regardless, but
- 1:41:31Speaker 2: you have giant monsters and robots.
- 1:41:32Speaker 8: You got your Anne Hathaway for your intellectuals.
- 1:41:35Speaker 7: You got your.
- 1:41:36Speaker 2: Jason Sudeikis who loved comedy. Kid Lucky's not a comedian
- 1:41:41Speaker 2: in this movie. So yeah, I like that as an
- 1:41:44Speaker 2: interesting little turn in there. Sylvia Hooks in Blade Runner 2049.
- 1:41:52Speaker 2: She is kind of a badass. So again, it's hard
- 1:41:56Speaker 2: to bring in formidable characters in that series at this point.
- 1:42:00Speaker 2: So points to them for doing it. But the winner, again,
- 1:42:06Speaker 2: I feel like could have very easily been forgotten, especially
- 1:42:09Speaker 2: because the movie came much earlier in the year and
- 1:42:12Speaker 2: we've had so many movies with big villains in it.
- 1:42:15Speaker 2: I didn't expect this to win. And the winner is
- 1:42:18Speaker 2: Michael Keaton. as the vulture in Spider-Man Homecoming.
- 1:42:21Speaker 13: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:42:22Speaker 2: He is a terrific.
- 1:42:23Speaker 6: I guess that was just like.
- 1:42:25Speaker 2: Yeah, it seems like it was even earlier than it was,
- 1:42:28Speaker 2: but it's not really that long ago, but we've already
- 1:42:32Speaker 2: had so many since then that I feel like it
- 1:42:34Speaker 2: would have gotten totally passed by, but yeah, a lot
- 1:42:38Speaker 2: of people voted for him, so Michael Keaton.
- 1:42:41Speaker 6: Good for him, because that was a great performance.
- 1:42:43Speaker 2: He is a great... Again, barely a villain. He's almost just...
- 1:42:48Speaker 2: He becomes a villain by the end of it, but
- 1:42:50Speaker 2: in the middle, he's just a guy trying to get by,
- 1:42:53Speaker 2: and it becomes a little more of that weird clipping
- 1:42:56Speaker 2: slope there. I do like somebody's comment here was, Michael
- 1:43:01Speaker 2: Keaton as the Vulture in Spider-Man, because it was really
- 1:43:03Speaker 2: nice to see Michael Keaton in a superhero movie again.
- 1:43:05Speaker 2: I was like, well, Birdman. Technically, not really the one
- 1:43:10Speaker 2: most people are looking for, but technically, it was just
- 1:43:13Speaker 2: in Birdman. But yeah, it was weird. Not a whole
- 1:43:18Speaker 2: lot of Snoke here. Which again, like a year, like
- 1:43:21Speaker 2: that two-year build-up of all the crazy Snoke talk, you
- 1:43:24Speaker 2: would have thought that would have been what everybody was
- 1:43:26Speaker 2: talking about. But no. No Snoke.
- 1:43:29Speaker 7: Tom Holland is adorable.
- 1:43:32Speaker 2: He really is. He is. I'm fine with that.
- 1:43:35Speaker 7: I'm excited to see him in that Uncharted movie that
- 1:43:37Speaker 7: they'll probably never make, but they've.
- 1:43:39Speaker 6: Been talking about forever.
- 1:43:39Speaker 2: They've been talking about for 20 years.
- 1:43:41Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 1:43:41Speaker 10: What?
- 1:43:41Speaker 13: What?
- 1:43:42Speaker 7: The Uncharted movie. Tom Holland's going to be a young
- 1:43:45Speaker 7: Nathan Drake. Maybe, if they make it.
- 1:43:49Speaker 2: It's weird that they're going young on that character. We've
- 1:43:52Speaker 2: never seen an old version of him in the movies.
- 1:43:55Speaker 7: Yeah, there's a segment in the games that they're probably
- 1:43:58Speaker 7: going to focus on. It's like a work in the
- 1:44:01Speaker 7: industry thing, him and his brother. I think it'll be good.
- 1:44:04Speaker 7: Better than Mark Wahlberg, who is potentially going to play
- 1:44:07Speaker 7: him for a bit with David O. Russell directing.
- 1:44:10Speaker 2: That's a weird company. I can see them casting Marky
- 1:44:14Speaker 2: Mark in that. But, yeah, David O. Russell making a
- 1:44:18Speaker 2: video game movie.
- 1:44:19Speaker 7: One chart is pretty story heavy.
- 1:44:20Speaker 2: Still, though.
- 1:44:22Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, it's unusual.
- 1:44:24Speaker 2: And an adventure movie. That's not what you think of.
- 1:44:26Speaker 2: Not that kind of adventure movie for David O. Russell.
- 1:44:29Speaker 7: Time to get the dental work for the kids, I guess.
- 1:44:33Speaker 2: I suppose.
- 1:44:34Speaker 7: If he has any. But if not, I need dental work,
- 1:44:36Speaker 7: so hit me up.
- 1:44:40Speaker 2: All right, next up, the best monster in a 2017 film,
- 1:44:43Speaker 2: which this is the one every year people have to
- 1:44:46Speaker 2: get cute with this one. Like, they think they're being clever.
- 1:44:50Speaker 2: I see what you're doing. Just vote for a monster.
- 1:44:53Speaker 2: If more of you just would have voted for Doug,
- 1:44:55Speaker 2: he would have won. So, spoiler, as much as I
- 1:44:59Speaker 2: was pulling for him, Fishman doesn't get it. So, first up,
- 1:45:04Speaker 2: Anne Hathaway, as previously mentioned, in Colossal. She is a
- 1:45:08Speaker 2: giant monster, so definitely check that out if you like
- 1:45:11Speaker 2: giant monsters and alcoholism. Let's see.
- 1:45:15Speaker 7: I love alcoholism.
- 1:45:16Speaker 2: This one goes super old school, kind of in like
- 1:45:20Speaker 2: a Scooby and Peanuts way. Casey Affleck is that sheet
- 1:45:24Speaker 2: time jumping ghost in a ghost story. If you've seen.
- 1:45:30Speaker 8: Or just Casey Affleck as a human.
- 1:45:32Speaker 2: As a human.
- 1:45:32Speaker 6: Every day.
- 1:45:33Speaker 2: He's not near as entertaining as the sheet that we
- 1:45:36Speaker 2: kind of.
- 1:45:36Speaker 8: Casey Affleck as a regular old sex predator.
- 1:45:39Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:45:39Speaker 7: I didn't see a ghost story. I wanted to.
- 1:45:41Speaker 8: I did too, and I just never bothered.
- 1:45:43Speaker 2: It's... It's trying really hard. It did kind of look hipster-y,
- 1:45:48Speaker 2: sort of. We've had the director on the show. He's
- 1:45:52Speaker 2: an awesome guy. I think he's super talented, but he's
- 1:45:56Speaker 2: got two different modes. Again, he just did Pete's Dragon,
- 1:46:01Speaker 2: so he can do more mainstream stuff. But he's got
- 1:46:06Speaker 2: a super arty vein to him that is hardcore.
- 1:46:09Speaker 8: I heard Pete's Dragon was like really, really good.
- 1:46:11Speaker 2: And that's the thing. That's what everybody I've talked to
- 1:46:14Speaker 2: like really liked it. So it's like he can do
- 1:46:16Speaker 2: more crowd pleasing kind of stuff. But I'm like, this
- 1:46:19Speaker 2: is not for normal people.
- 1:46:20Speaker 7: That's interesting.
- 1:46:21Speaker 2: It is slow paced. It is minimal dialogue. It is
- 1:46:26Speaker 2: an unconventional story. And like it's. it's got great visuals.
- 1:46:32Speaker 2: It's an interesting concept, but it's like an interesting concept
- 1:46:35Speaker 2: for like a short film, like, like a 20, 25
- 1:46:38Speaker 2: minute film, not a full length feature. Don't get me wrong.
- 1:46:43Speaker 2: The pie scene is impressive, but it's, yeah, I, I don't,
- 1:46:47Speaker 2: I don't know. I landed on a weird side on
- 1:46:50Speaker 2: that one.
- 1:46:50Speaker 7: I wish I could have been on that episode. Cause
- 1:46:52Speaker 7: I had a really good idea for a tagline. I
- 1:46:54Speaker 7: like marketing. I just thought it'd be good if they
- 1:46:56Speaker 7: used to like sheet happens.
- 1:46:59Speaker 2: This is why you're not kidding properly.
- 1:47:01Speaker 8: This is why you're not the marketing department.
- 1:47:05Speaker 2: Just stick to book finds.
- 1:47:08Speaker 7: I'm recycling all my jokes from Twitter for this episode.
- 1:47:11Speaker 7: Very special episode.
- 1:47:13Speaker 2: Now everyone has to unfollow you because they've heard it all.
- 1:47:16Speaker 7: There'll be more. Stay tuned.
- 1:47:18Speaker 2: Alright, next up, this one, I'll give credit. This, I think,
- 1:47:24Speaker 2: was also got at least a vote for a villain,
- 1:47:27Speaker 2: but it Sort of works in this character, if you've
- 1:47:29Speaker 2: seen the movie. Kevin Wendell Crumb, who was James McAvoy
- 1:47:34Speaker 2: in Split.
- 1:47:36Speaker 7: Oh, yeah.
- 1:47:36Speaker 2: He's a monster.
- 1:47:38Speaker 7: Split was this year?
- 1:47:39Speaker 2: He's definitely a monster.
- 1:47:40Speaker 8: Split was this year? Jeez.
- 1:47:41Speaker 7: That seems like it's... Years ago.
- 1:47:45Speaker 2: You can double check. I thought it was.
- 1:47:47Speaker 7: I'll count it. It's just that good. Beginning of the year?
- 1:47:49Speaker 2: Yeah, I did like it. Maybe. Maybe.
- 1:47:52Speaker 8: I want to say it came out roughly the same
- 1:47:54Speaker 8: time as Get Out did.
- 1:47:55Speaker 7: Yeah, maybe.
- 1:47:56Speaker 8: It feels like Get.
- 1:47:57Speaker 2: Out was sick.
- 1:47:59Speaker 7: I have no concept of Tom.
- 1:48:01Speaker 8: Yeah, I don't either. Once you hit 30, it's like
- 1:48:03Speaker 8: every day is the same.
- 1:48:05Speaker 2: Yes.
- 1:48:08Speaker 7: Split looks like this is disqualified 2016 according to.
- 1:48:12Speaker 2: What was the release?
- 1:48:14Speaker 7: Oh, good question.
- 1:48:16Speaker 2: I had a few of those where it actually didn't
- 1:48:18Speaker 2: get released until... the next year, though.
- 1:48:22Speaker 7: Yeah, we'll count it.
- 1:48:23Speaker 2: We'll count it because we're midway.
- 1:48:24Speaker 7: I love Shyamalan's return to glory. I like seeing that.
- 1:48:29Speaker 2: To people tolerating him. I don't even feel like it
- 1:48:31Speaker 2: was glory. It was just like, oh, I don't hate
- 1:48:33Speaker 2: that guy.
- 1:48:33Speaker 7: He was involved with Wayward Pontus, too, which is actually
- 1:48:35Speaker 7: really good.
- 1:48:36Speaker 2: I've heard decent things. But, okay, so the runner-up and
- 1:48:40Speaker 2: the one that I'm pushing, I'm trying to, if I
- 1:48:44Speaker 2: could have done a campaign and not, you know, like
- 1:48:46Speaker 2: negated my role as the vote counter, but I was
- 1:48:50Speaker 2: pushing for you, Doug, but it didn't happen. So the
- 1:48:53Speaker 2: fish man from Shape of Water is our runner-up. My
- 1:48:56Speaker 2: favorite comment was, go, Gilman, go. But it didn't happen.
- 1:49:01Speaker 2: So the winner is, and this one just, they just
- 1:49:04Speaker 2: kept coming in. I think it's just the only horror
- 1:49:07Speaker 2: movie everybody saw. The winner is Pennywise from It.
- 1:49:11Speaker 6: Oh, yeah.
- 1:49:11Speaker 2: If it were any other year, I'd have to pull
- 1:49:13Speaker 2: for him. I was surprised how much I thought he
- 1:49:16Speaker 2: was an effective villain.
- 1:49:18Speaker 8: He was.
- 1:49:18Speaker 2: Monster, whatever the hell he really... That's the thing. I
- 1:49:20Speaker 2: think it got split and some people were voting for
- 1:49:22Speaker 2: him in villain, too. Yeah. But a lot of them
- 1:49:25Speaker 2: came through for monster, so... Yeah.
- 1:49:28Speaker 6: I mean.
- 1:49:28Speaker 8: That's one of the Skarsgård boys. He did a good job.
- 1:49:32Speaker 8: He really did. He plays an excellent creepy dude.
- 1:49:35Speaker 2: And I've said that on many episodes in the past.
- 1:49:37Speaker 2: I was like, that was my thing. I'm like, the
- 1:49:39Speaker 2: movie itself needs to be remade. That's fine. But how
- 1:49:43Speaker 2: can you do a more effective job than Tim Curry?
- 1:49:47Speaker 2: And that was the hurdle for me. I'm just like,
- 1:49:49Speaker 2: I love that character in that relatively bad movie. So
- 1:49:53Speaker 2: how do you do that? And they found a way.
- 1:49:55Speaker 2: His performance is pretty great. So that points to him
- 1:50:00Speaker 2: and for the filmmakers because that's that's pretty badass but
- 1:50:03Speaker 2: yeah this is the category everybody thinks they're being funny
- 1:50:06Speaker 2: we got best monster we got votes for tommy was
- 1:50:10Speaker 2: so hilarious i get it ridley scott for making alien
- 1:50:15Speaker 2: content okay i get it you're cute i see it
- 1:50:18Speaker 2: jenny lind and the greatest showman all right i see
- 1:50:20Speaker 2: where you're coming from um but i we did at
- 1:50:23Speaker 2: least get one for korg for uh thor which i
- 1:50:26Speaker 2: thought that's He's one of the best parts of Thor.
- 1:50:30Speaker 2: And Calvin from Life got a mention.
- 1:50:33Speaker 8: Everybody's got their velvet tux jackets.
- 1:50:36Speaker 7: Everybody leaving?
- 1:50:37Speaker 2: We're all wearing these. What are you talking about? We
- 1:50:39Speaker 2: came equipped with matching velvet tux jackets.
- 1:50:42Speaker 6: All right.
- 1:50:43Speaker 2: Next up is best action sequence in a 2017 film.
- 1:50:46Speaker 2: And this is the one I'm just like, this was
- 1:50:50Speaker 2: a hell of a year for action scenes in general
- 1:50:53Speaker 2: that I guess I didn't stop and think about it
- 1:50:55Speaker 2: until all these kept coming in. I'm like, Any one
- 1:50:58Speaker 2: of these should have been the winner. Every one of these.
- 1:51:02Speaker 2: The first up is the opening heist in Baby Driver.
- 1:51:06Speaker 2: Maybe one of the most impressively choreographed action scene car
- 1:51:11Speaker 2: chases ever.
- 1:51:13Speaker 8: Did Baby Driver not get nominated for anything?
- 1:51:15Speaker 7: I think there was a sound or editing.
- 1:51:17Speaker 2: There's some tech stuff.
- 1:51:19Speaker 8: Because everyone freaked out about that being such a great
- 1:51:22Speaker 8: movie and it wasn't nominated for Best Actor or anything
- 1:51:26Speaker 8: like that.
- 1:51:27Speaker 12: It's a good movie, but I don't think it's ever
- 1:51:30Speaker 12: going to be the best movie.
- 1:51:32Speaker 7: It's more like the Stalaz sort of stuff.
- 1:51:35Speaker 2: That's him in general, just as a writer-director. Fans love
- 1:51:40Speaker 2: his stuff. Has he ever really gotten any recognition by
- 1:51:43Speaker 2: the industry? I don't know.
- 1:51:47Speaker 8: I didn't watch it, but.
- 1:51:48Speaker 7: It's good.
- 1:51:49Speaker 2: It's worth seeing. Again, just It's one of those, that
- 1:51:52Speaker 2: scene almost blows its own load right there. Cause like
- 1:51:55Speaker 2: the rest of the stuff is good, but like that
- 1:51:58Speaker 2: opening car chase heist scene is so impressive that like
- 1:52:04Speaker 2: by the end, what should be the finale, it still
- 1:52:07Speaker 2: isn't that as impressive as that first one. Like maybe
- 1:52:10Speaker 2: could have flipped them, but it's a hell of a
- 1:52:12Speaker 2: way to open a movie. I'll give you that.
- 1:52:13Speaker 7: It's very good.
- 1:52:15Speaker 2: Next up Kong versus helicopters in Kong skull Island. I just,
- 1:52:21Speaker 2: That movie is so damn fun. It's not trying to
- 1:52:24Speaker 2: be anything more than monsters fighting with other monsters. It's
- 1:52:29Speaker 2: so damn entertaining.
- 1:52:30Speaker 7: John C. Reilly.
- 1:52:32Speaker 2: Is Kong. Wait, that's not right at all.
- 1:52:34Speaker 7: I would watch that.
- 1:52:35Speaker 6: I would watch the shit out of that.
- 1:52:37Speaker 2: He is amazing in that. The fact that there's the snub.
- 1:52:40Speaker 2: Why is he not getting an Oscar tonight? Damn, he
- 1:52:43Speaker 2: is good in that movie. See, this is the one
- 1:52:46Speaker 2: we brought it up at the time of the movie.
- 1:52:49Speaker 2: Why I wouldn't have thought this would immediately go to
- 1:52:51Speaker 2: the top. The throne room lightsaber battle in Last Jedi.
- 1:52:56Speaker 2: That's like one of the most amazing action scenes ever.
- 1:52:59Speaker 2: So the fact that it's just one of many this
- 1:53:02Speaker 2: year that isn't going to win. That's a weird year.
- 1:53:06Speaker 2: So now we get to the runner up. This is
- 1:53:08Speaker 2: still the one that got tons of votes. Almost did it.
- 1:53:12Speaker 2: Maybe technically deserved to. The stairwell fight in Atomic Blonde.
- 1:53:18Speaker 2: It's phenomenal. Like, it is.
- 1:53:20Speaker 7: I need to see that.
- 1:53:21Speaker 2: Oh, I mean, the movie's good, but there's that fight,
- 1:53:25Speaker 2: that massive fight that is one continuous shot of Throne
- 1:53:31Speaker 2: just beating the hell out of people for an extended
- 1:53:35Speaker 2: period of time.
- 1:53:35Speaker 7: Nice.
- 1:53:36Speaker 2: It's, yeah, it's amazing. So... Again, the fact that this
- 1:53:40Speaker 2: is a year where that didn't win is surprising.
- 1:53:43Speaker 7: I still like the Aeon Flux movie. I think you're
- 1:53:48Speaker 7: the only one. I'm not ashamed.
- 1:53:50Speaker 2: I like the animated series.
- 1:53:51Speaker 6: Yeah, I prefer the animated series.
- 1:53:52Speaker 2: I still don't know if I ever sat down and
- 1:53:55Speaker 2: watched all of the movie. I just remember going, they
- 1:53:58Speaker 2: tried to make a movie?
- 1:53:59Speaker 7: It's kind of like the old bad sci-fi sort of stuff.
- 1:54:04Speaker 7: I mean, there's no merit to it, other than the
- 1:54:06Speaker 7: fact that it's just fun.
- 1:54:07Speaker 2: It's good bad sci-fi. Yeah.
- 1:54:09Speaker 7: And update on Split. It came out January 20th, 2017.
- 1:54:14Speaker 7: Get Out came out February 24th, 2017. So, yeah, they're
- 1:54:17Speaker 7: pretty close.
- 1:54:18Speaker 2: They're sneaking in in that early part of the year
- 1:54:21Speaker 2: when usually they dump stuff and then it doesn't get nominated.
- 1:54:24Speaker 2: But Get Out totally bucked the system there. The fact
- 1:54:27Speaker 2: that almost a year later the nominations came in is
- 1:54:31Speaker 2: pretty damn impressive for Get Out.
- 1:54:33Speaker 5: So.
- 1:54:34Speaker 2: Back to action sequence like this this is the other
- 1:54:37Speaker 2: one that would have come to mind but yeah i'm
- 1:54:40Speaker 2: surprised how many people came through can't argue and the
- 1:54:43Speaker 2: winner is wonder woman going into no man's land yeah
- 1:54:47Speaker 2: this is just a hell of a year for action
- 1:54:49Speaker 2: scenes because then they all the other ones that were
- 1:54:51Speaker 2: thrown out there the opening scene of guardians of the
- 1:54:55Speaker 2: galaxy 2 with baby groot is phenomenal the hulk versus
- 1:55:00Speaker 2: thor uh wonder woman versus the terrorist in justice league
- 1:55:04Speaker 2: is probably the best action scene in that movie um
- 1:55:08Speaker 2: there was a vote for every bit of fate of
- 1:55:11Speaker 2: the furious that is pretty much all that it is
- 1:55:15Speaker 2: um i do like they singled out the rock stopped
- 1:55:17Speaker 2: a torpedo with his bare hands not even in the
- 1:55:21Speaker 2: movie just in real life that's what he does that's
- 1:55:23Speaker 2: like a tuesday for the rock.
- 1:55:24Speaker 8: Have you guys ever seen, I don't know if it
- 1:55:26Speaker 8: was a video or a story about him having to
- 1:55:29Speaker 8: give his French bulldog CPR?
- 1:55:31Speaker 2: No.
- 1:55:31Speaker 8: So he fell in a pool.
- 1:55:34Speaker 2: And he saved him.
- 1:55:35Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 1:55:36Speaker 2: Because he's strong. He can do anything. But yeah, the
- 1:55:40Speaker 2: Washington Monument in Spider-Man, the forest fight in Logan, the
- 1:55:44Speaker 2: end scene in Baby Driver, and the, I told you
- 1:55:48Speaker 2: this term was coming earlier when I used it because
- 1:55:50Speaker 2: I feel like it's a phrase everyone should use, The
- 1:55:53Speaker 2: slow motion shaky stab-a-thon in Logan, which that part is
- 1:55:57Speaker 2: also badass. So all of this, like the fact that
- 1:56:01Speaker 2: all of these things happened in the same year is
- 1:56:04Speaker 2: kind of a pretty amazing year.
- 1:56:06Speaker 10: Logan was a pretty violent movie.
- 1:56:08Speaker 7: Have you all watched Legion, the show on FX? I haven't.
- 1:56:12Speaker 7: It ties into the X movies, and yeah, it's very good.
- 1:56:14Speaker 7: If you like Logan, you should definitely watch it. It's
- 1:56:16Speaker 7: almost like Logan meets Mr. Robot because it's very weird. Yeah,
- 1:56:20Speaker 7: and allegedly it's supposed to tie into the Fox X-Men movies.
- 1:56:26Speaker 7: Who knows what's happening with that little merger. But they're
- 1:56:29Speaker 7: talking about Professor X eventually making an appearance. Well, I
- 1:56:33Speaker 7: guess it'll be McAvoy.
- 1:56:35Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Stewart's done.
- 1:56:36Speaker 7: Stewart's too busy with the emoji sequels.
- 1:56:39Speaker 2: He's got to be poop some more times. It is
- 1:56:42Speaker 2: fitting that Gal's on the screen right now as we
- 1:56:44Speaker 2: do this. Because we got one comment specifically that I
- 1:56:48Speaker 2: wanted to throw in. And this is Wonder Woman going
- 1:56:50Speaker 2: into No Man's Land. They said, it legitimately made me cry.
- 1:56:54Speaker 2: It was beautifully framed and edited, but it also was
- 1:56:56Speaker 2: just so cool to finally see arguably the most famous
- 1:57:00Speaker 2: female superhero get to show off how powerful and strong
- 1:57:03Speaker 2: she is. So more power to you, gal. Look at
- 1:57:07Speaker 2: her handing.
- 1:57:07Speaker 8: Out sandwiches and shit. So I really loved Wonder Woman,
- 1:57:09Speaker 8: but here's, someone once brought up like maybe it was
- 1:57:14Speaker 8: a necessary part so that the movie wasn't so dark.
- 1:57:17Speaker 8: But like, I feel like they tried to manic pixie
- 1:57:20Speaker 8: dream girl her where she's like, it's so adorable. I
- 1:57:23Speaker 8: don't know how to work a door. Like, it's just like, why?
- 1:57:27Speaker 10: Why?
- 1:57:28Speaker 2: She's like. They leaned a little heavy on the fish
- 1:57:31Speaker 2: out of water stuff.
- 1:57:33Speaker 6: Yeah. But I'm just like.
- 1:57:34Speaker 2: I mean, I guess she is being thrown into a city, whatever.
- 1:57:38Speaker 8: I know, but I just hate that they always like,
- 1:57:40Speaker 8: they can't just let someone, they don't do that with
- 1:57:43Speaker 8: a man in an action movie. They're not like. All right, Superman,
- 1:57:46Speaker 8: you've got to be like a fucking idiot in public.
- 1:57:50Speaker 6: Yeah, thank you.
- 1:57:52Speaker 2: I feel like the Thor stuff was kind of.
- 1:57:55Speaker 6: All your arguments about those women were just shut down forever.
- 1:58:01Speaker 2: Thanks.
- 1:58:01Speaker 6: I'm joking, obviously. She makes a good point.
- 1:58:05Speaker 2: But so does Leonard.
- 1:58:07Speaker 7: Why is the Doug Donasty guy in here?
- 1:58:09Speaker 2: I don't know. Let's try to ignore him.
- 1:58:11Speaker 6: I don't know, but he's got Junior Mints.
- 1:58:13Speaker 2: Whoa.
- 1:58:14Speaker 8: I'll allow it.
- 1:58:15Speaker 2: To that point, I mean, the first Thor movie did that. Yeah,
- 1:58:20Speaker 2: that's true. Him in a pet store trying to buy
- 1:58:22Speaker 2: a horse to ride out on. I mean, it's not
- 1:58:25Speaker 2: quite as adorable, but he's pretty adorable. But I don't know.
- 1:58:30Speaker 2: They do go a little cutesier in Wonder Woman.
- 1:58:33Speaker 6: Marty McFly trying to order a tab.
- 1:58:35Speaker 2: I mean, come on. Give me a tab, kid, until
- 1:58:37Speaker 2: you order something.
- 1:58:38Speaker 6: You want a Pepsi, pal? You're going to pay for it.
- 1:58:42Speaker 6: I guess.
- 1:58:43Speaker 8: I guess it probably happens in lots of movies. I
- 1:58:45Speaker 8: just feel like.
- 1:58:46Speaker 6: No, you're right. It does.
- 1:58:47Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:58:49Speaker 8: They always have to, like, make a. They always have
- 1:58:51Speaker 8: to make, like, strong women more relatable. And I feel
- 1:58:55Speaker 8: like they don't have to do that with men. A
- 1:58:57Speaker 8: man can just be, like, an all-powerful, like. unapologetic person
- 1:59:02Speaker 8: but women are.
- 1:59:02Speaker 6: I feel like that's changing too not specifically you or
- 1:59:05Speaker 6: because you're a woman i mean it could be anybody
- 1:59:07Speaker 6: in this room but if you've never seen a doorknob
- 1:59:10Speaker 6: wouldn't you kind of freak the fuck.
- 1:59:12Speaker 2: Out what the hell is it just smack at it
- 1:59:15Speaker 2: let me in.
- 1:59:16Speaker 12: God we just had your door is quite questionable.
- 1:59:21Speaker 10: So oh man that doorknob will be the death of me.
- 1:59:25Speaker 2: No, really. We didn't see that in the paper.
- 1:59:27Speaker 6: I've fixed it four times since I've lived here.
- 1:59:32Speaker 2: So we're all kind of like Wonder Woman.
- 1:59:33Speaker 10: For those of you in Radioland, the doorknob to my bathroom,
- 1:59:37Speaker 10: but only when you leave the bathroom, you.
- 1:59:39Speaker 6: Can turn it and turn it and turn it and
- 1:59:41Speaker 6: turn it and.
- 1:59:42Speaker 10: Turn it and about 30 minutes later it'll open.
- 1:59:45Speaker 6: And then you're like, oh, I gotta go to the
- 1:59:46Speaker 6: bathroom again.
- 1:59:48Speaker 2: It's like, turn it twice to the left, back around
- 1:59:51Speaker 2: once to the right, and then back.
- 1:59:52Speaker 6: Just round and round and round and round.
- 1:59:54Speaker 7: I went to pee a few minutes ago, and I thought,
- 1:59:55Speaker 7: I'm going to just not shut that all the way,
- 1:59:57Speaker 7: and then it came and hit me, and I was like, oh,
- 1:59:58Speaker 7: they probably don't want to hear me pee.
- 1:59:59Speaker 6: Yeah, that's the other thing, too. You can't just not
- 2:00:02Speaker 6: latch it, or it'll hit you in the back while
- 2:00:04Speaker 6: you're peeing.
- 2:00:05Speaker 2: I'm just going in the yard.
- 2:00:06Speaker 6: In the knees, if you're a lady.
- 2:00:08Speaker 2: You don't know how I... Never mind. All right, so
- 2:00:13Speaker 2: next up, and this one had to be... I won't
- 2:00:17Speaker 2: say changed because I still come at it at a
- 2:00:20Speaker 2: totally different angle, but I reworded it because in the
- 2:00:23Speaker 2: world we currently live, would we be the kind of
- 2:00:26Speaker 2: crash show that would use a category like hottest actor
- 2:00:30Speaker 2: or actress? That seems inappropriate. We would never do that.
- 2:00:34Speaker 2: Don't go back and look at last year. So the
- 2:00:37Speaker 2: way we worded this category is the Performer that you
- 2:00:41Speaker 2: feel is aesthetically pleasing while also having an amazing charisma
- 2:00:46Speaker 2: that you're inexplicably drawn to. But if you were ever
- 2:00:48Speaker 2: in their presence in the real world, you would be
- 2:00:51Speaker 2: completely respectful and not at all creepy towards them in
- 2:00:54Speaker 2: a 2017 film. Legal battles. Just saying. Just wording. Just
- 2:01:02Speaker 2: phrasing it properly. Not to be creepy. This is actually
- 2:01:06Speaker 2: one I specifically started. Not to be overly, oh, they're
- 2:01:10Speaker 2: super hot. I feel like I liked getting the fringe people.
- 2:01:14Speaker 2: That's been my favorite part because we all know who's
- 2:01:16Speaker 2: on the dumb magazine covers. We all know who the
- 2:01:19Speaker 2: normal people think we're supposed to be into. I liked
- 2:01:22Speaker 2: getting these responses from people because we get way of
- 2:01:26Speaker 2: a weird mixture in some of the comments that come along.
- 2:01:30Speaker 2: The one last year about the autopsy of Jane Doe.
- 2:01:37Speaker 2: And their shame for really being into the dead body
- 2:01:39Speaker 2: the whole time. That was like, I'm like, the fact
- 2:01:42Speaker 2: that they voted for that one and admitted to that.
- 2:01:46Speaker 2: I'm like, this is why I love this category. Because
- 2:01:49Speaker 2: it outs the creeps is what I really want to do.
- 2:01:52Speaker 2: But more importantly, like, it just gives us new people
- 2:01:55Speaker 2: to be like, wait, who is this that they're so into?
- 2:01:57Speaker 2: And I kind of want to find out more about them.
- 2:01:58Speaker 6: I'm glad to know that the listeners aren't that different
- 2:02:01Speaker 6: from us. Yeah, we're all creepy.
- 2:02:02Speaker 2: We're all creepy people is what we're all... Also learning.
- 2:02:08Speaker 2: All right, so.
- 2:02:09Speaker 7: Creeples.
- 2:02:10Speaker 2: Again, that's very fitting for this first one. Our first,
- 2:02:14Speaker 2: we're starting with actresses. First up is Vicky Creeps, which
- 2:02:18Speaker 2: is not the best horror host name ever. She doesn't
- 2:02:21Speaker 2: spell it that way, but I feel like she should
- 2:02:23Speaker 2: have readjusted it. How did she spell it? It's K-R-I-E-P-S.
- 2:02:31Speaker 2: But many people have pronounced it, and that's how they
- 2:02:34Speaker 2: say it.
- 2:02:35Speaker 8: That's cool.
- 2:02:36Speaker 2: Vicky Creeps should be hosting a YouTube channel where they
- 2:02:39Speaker 2: watch old public domain horror movies. I'm just saying, Vicky.
- 2:02:42Speaker 2: I know you're nominated for Oscars and stuff, but granted,
- 2:02:45Speaker 2: you won one. But it's not too late to start
- 2:02:48Speaker 2: your own YouTube channel.
- 2:02:49Speaker 8: I don't know who that is, weirdly.
- 2:02:51Speaker 2: And that's most people. I think that's the thing. I
- 2:02:53Speaker 2: knew the name, but I was trying to... She did
- 2:02:55Speaker 2: win an Oscar.
- 2:02:56Speaker 7: And then.
- 2:02:57Speaker 2: Vicky Creeps. She's back this year. She's in Phantom Thread.
- 2:03:01Speaker 2: So she's like high-end Oscar caliber.
- 2:03:04Speaker 7: Oh, okay.
- 2:03:05Speaker 2: Super serious german chick and obviously people are into her
- 2:03:11Speaker 2: next up lily james from baby driver i do remember
- 2:03:15Speaker 2: like even in that going wait who is this girl
- 2:03:17Speaker 2: like she's just adorable but in a weird way that
- 2:03:22Speaker 2: i'm just like what i know i've probably seen her
- 2:03:25Speaker 2: in something what the hell is it about this girl
- 2:03:27Speaker 2: so yeah i i Still haven't quite figured it out,
- 2:03:30Speaker 2: but next up, and this is one that I always like.
- 2:03:33Speaker 2: We've had one in the past. I love when people
- 2:03:36Speaker 2: vote for the hottest voiceover actor. Olivia Munn in the
- 2:03:41Speaker 2: Lego Ninjado movie. First person's comment was, I'm a big
- 2:03:47Speaker 2: Olivia Munn fan, and she did a voice in that
- 2:03:49Speaker 2: Lego movie, so that counts, right? I do, again, telling
- 2:03:53Speaker 2: you who people are into. She's an absolute neckbreaker. My
- 2:03:56Speaker 2: favorite hands-down... Creepily or not. Not that we endorse being
- 2:04:02Speaker 2: creepy towards celebrities. Please be super respectful.
- 2:04:05Speaker 6: Just saying.
- 2:04:08Speaker 2: I've been with people that I've totally been into and
- 2:04:12Speaker 2: I think I've been less creepy than should have been
- 2:04:14Speaker 2: expected from me.
- 2:04:15Speaker 8: Celebrities are just average people.
- 2:04:18Speaker 2: No, I don't care about real people. People in the
- 2:04:20Speaker 2: real world are lame. But people that have been in movies.
- 2:04:24Speaker 6: Somebody from the balcony finally. Did they win an award?
- 2:04:27Speaker 6: You never see that.
- 2:04:28Speaker 7: The live action short.
- 2:04:30Speaker 2: Oh, that's why.
- 2:04:31Speaker 6: Yeah, but you never see him in the balcony. He's
- 2:04:33Speaker 6: pretty much assured that if you're in the balcony.
- 2:04:34Speaker 7: They probably put him back there because of the man bun.
- 2:04:37Speaker 13: Oh, yeah.
- 2:04:38Speaker 2: We had to protect the audience from the man bun.
- 2:04:40Speaker 8: Get back in the balcony where you belong, man bun.
- 2:04:43Speaker 7: I bet he smokes clothes and plays soccer.
- 2:04:49Speaker 2: He's probably really good at soccer, but he doesn't like
- 2:04:52Speaker 2: to show off.
- 2:04:52Speaker 8: Hey, I mean, what's wrong with soccer, though?
- 2:04:55Speaker 7: Football.
- 2:04:56Speaker 2: All right. Next up, the runner-up. Didn't see it coming.
- 2:05:00Speaker 2: Another one of those that I like. This is telling
- 2:05:02Speaker 2: you who people are into and not always. Granted, she's gorgeous,
- 2:05:06Speaker 2: but many votes for Cate Blanchett. who specifically this person
- 2:05:10Speaker 2: cited as, oh my God, it's an evil goth space
- 2:05:13Speaker 2: woman with antlers. Somebody's got a thing for chicks with antlers.
- 2:05:18Speaker 2: I'm just saying.
- 2:05:23Speaker 8: What was I gonna say? What were we talking about?
- 2:05:25Speaker 2: Cate Blanchett.
- 2:05:26Speaker 7: Oh. Your deep love for Cate Blanchett.
- 2:05:28Speaker 8: In the immortal words of Billy Eichner, is she attractive
- 2:05:31Speaker 8: or is she just tall?
- 2:05:34Speaker 2: She could be both.
- 2:05:35Speaker 6: I think she's attractively tall.
- 2:05:37Speaker 8: I do think she's attractive, but no. It's just like
- 2:05:40Speaker 8: on Billy on the Street. He'll just be like, Cate Blanchett,
- 2:05:42Speaker 8: is she attractive or is she just tall?
- 2:05:45Speaker 2: I think everybody gets a little hotter when you put
- 2:05:47Speaker 2: antlers on them.
- 2:05:49Speaker 6: Well, yeah.
- 2:05:51Speaker 8: I mean, have you seen the ritual? I can't whistle,
- 2:05:55Speaker 8: but I.
- 2:05:55Speaker 2: Was trying to.
- 2:05:56Speaker 6: What was that noise you just made?
- 2:05:57Speaker 7: I can't whistle, okay?
- 2:06:00Speaker 2: Wait, this is your Oscar moment. I can't whistle.
- 2:06:04Speaker 6: So can you not whistle either? Yeah. Oh, okay.
- 2:06:07Speaker 2: All right. We all do. It's fine.
- 2:06:10Speaker 7: Yeah, you can't whistle.
- 2:06:11Speaker 2: It's a running theme on this show, actually.
- 2:06:13Speaker 6: In a relationship, at least one of you should be
- 2:06:15Speaker 6: able to whistle.
- 2:06:16Speaker 2: In case of emergency.
- 2:06:17Speaker 8: Right.
- 2:06:18Speaker 6: Exactly.
- 2:06:18Speaker 7: Can't be unequally yoked. That's biblical.
- 2:06:20Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 2:06:22Speaker 2: Counterbalance. It's yin and yang. Yeah, exactly. We all got
- 2:06:25Speaker 2: to match up with somebody.
- 2:06:27Speaker 12: Hmm?
- 2:06:28Speaker 2: All right, so... No, that's humming.
- 2:06:29Speaker 7: That's not the same as a whistle. It's kind of
- 2:06:31Speaker 7: getting into dubstep sound and stuff there. Drop the bass.
- 2:06:37Speaker 2: Oh, all the Cate Blanchetts and antlers aside, that's not
- 2:06:41Speaker 2: the winner, and no surprise. Again, overwhelmingly came in, and
- 2:06:46Speaker 2: the winner is Gal Gadot. It's her year. She's wonderful.
- 2:06:49Speaker 7: I would like to put in a write-in vote for
- 2:06:51Speaker 7: Sally Hawkins, because... I kind of fell in love with
- 2:06:54Speaker 7: her in that role. That's another one of those.
- 2:06:56Speaker 2: I didn't see coming in the beginning. I'm not saying
- 2:06:59Speaker 2: it was any weird bathtub scenes. I think it was
- 2:07:01Speaker 2: some of the other stuff. She was stylish and she
- 2:07:04Speaker 2: was sweet. You could tell the character had a good heart.
- 2:07:07Speaker 2: She also kind of looked like an ex-girlfriend of mine.
- 2:07:10Speaker 2: That's its own weird personal thing.
- 2:07:12Speaker 7: I might have some unrequited issues.
- 2:07:13Speaker 6: I've been there. I get it.
- 2:07:15Speaker 2: I was picturing her with antlers too. I'll show you
- 2:07:17Speaker 2: all a picture later.
- 2:07:18Speaker 7: I'll show you all a picture later that I saved
- 2:07:20Speaker 7: off of her Facebook after she was not in front
- 2:07:22Speaker 7: of me.
- 2:07:24Speaker 2: This is not creepy at all.
- 2:07:26Speaker 7: No, no, no. It wasn't her Facebook. It was from
- 2:07:29Speaker 7: a group that I'm in that she's still in.
- 2:07:31Speaker 2: That shut down for some reason, huh? The authorities have
- 2:07:38Speaker 2: been notified.
- 2:07:39Speaker 1: Anyway.
- 2:07:42Speaker 2: All right. So now we switch gears. I used to
- 2:07:46Speaker 2: open up to everybody. You can vote for whichever you
- 2:07:49Speaker 2: want to. So now we have the actors. It is
- 2:07:52Speaker 2: interesting who goes with what on these. First up, Keanu
- 2:07:56Speaker 2: Reeves in John Wick 2. You know, he's pulled a...
- 2:08:01Speaker 2: a total 180. He was a joke as an actor.
- 2:08:04Speaker 2: He wasn't bankable. Nobody really cared about him as far
- 2:08:07Speaker 2: as being hot dude that he still is for a
- 2:08:10Speaker 2: pretty old guy. He totally changed it with John Wick
- 2:08:14Speaker 2: and now he is all of the above. People actually
- 2:08:17Speaker 2: like him again. He's getting film roles and he's When.
- 2:08:20Speaker 7: You were saying all that, I was envisioning him sitting
- 2:08:22Speaker 7: on a bench eating a sandwich alone.
- 2:08:24Speaker 8: I picture him on a bus.
- 2:08:26Speaker 2: Letting ladies sit down while he stood because he's kind
- 2:08:30Speaker 2: of a cool dude. We've all kind of come to
- 2:08:32Speaker 2: terms with, man, I used to think he was a joke,
- 2:08:35Speaker 2: but he seems all right.
- 2:08:37Speaker 6: Well, he does seem like a decent guy. I also
- 2:08:39Speaker 6: think his acting range fits a very specific niche. And
- 2:08:45Speaker 6: I think as long as he stays in that, then
- 2:08:48Speaker 6: you're going to get good movies out of him.
- 2:08:50Speaker 2: I mean, that's what I think, like, that's my issue
- 2:08:54Speaker 2: with 2. 2 really doesn't have much heart to this character.
- 2:08:58Speaker 2: That first John Wick, like, for being a movie that
- 2:09:01Speaker 2: just focuses on him beating people's ass for an entire movie,
- 2:09:05Speaker 2: it's got a heart to it. It really has an
- 2:09:07Speaker 2: emotional core that, like, there's a reason... There's a couple
- 2:09:11Speaker 2: of main reasons that you're like, no, no, no, go
- 2:09:13Speaker 2: kill all those people. Like go right now and kill
- 2:09:16Speaker 2: all those people. So it's like the fact that it
- 2:09:18Speaker 2: has like emotional weight in a story that's that like
- 2:09:21Speaker 2: pulpy level of action movie. Like it's impressive that he
- 2:09:26Speaker 2: found the way to make that like something that we
- 2:09:29Speaker 2: could all get behind. Yeah.
- 2:09:31Speaker 1: All right.
- 2:09:31Speaker 2: So next up, Jon Hamm in Baby Driver. So some
- 2:09:36Speaker 2: people got a little thing for the bad boy, Jon Hamm.
- 2:09:39Speaker 2: Not the slick back suit wearing guy.
- 2:09:41Speaker 6: No, no.
- 2:09:41Speaker 8: He's a bad boy in Mad Men for sure.
- 2:09:43Speaker 2: Yeah, but he's like a suit wearing dick. That's different
- 2:09:46Speaker 2: than like street thief kind of a scam artist. So yeah,
- 2:09:52Speaker 2: he's definitely, he's rocking the bad boy vibe in Baby Driver.
- 2:09:57Speaker 2: Next up, once again, I think he's here every year
- 2:10:00Speaker 2: as of late. Geek girls love him. Tom Hiddleston. The
- 2:10:03Speaker 2: quote is, his performance in Ragnarok made up for his
- 2:10:06Speaker 2: relationship with Taylor Swift. I feel like we all. We all.
- 2:10:11Speaker 2: We all have issues with Taylor. We don't say them
- 2:10:15Speaker 2: out loud because she'll have us killed.
- 2:10:18Speaker 8: I did, and I'm still alive. That time I said,
- 2:10:22Speaker 8: who's this bitch that thinks she's Taylor Swift? And it
- 2:10:25Speaker 8: was Taylor Swift.
- 2:10:26Speaker 2: Is this another one of your Marlena stories?
- 2:10:28Speaker 6: I've never told you this.
- 2:10:30Speaker 2: You might have, but it's a long time since we've
- 2:10:33Speaker 2: had a chance to bust this out. I think it's
- 2:10:35Speaker 2: time for a Marlena moment. And now it's time for
- 2:10:39Speaker 2: a Marlena moment.
- 2:10:41Speaker 8: Okay, I was in a mall. It was a gloomy
- 2:10:44Speaker 8: day in the summertime. It was raining. There was like
- 2:10:49Speaker 8: a girl, a perfect, perfect specimen, a female in front
- 2:10:53Speaker 8: of me.
- 2:10:53Speaker 2: A girl or two.
- 2:10:54Speaker 8: Like leather scallop shorts, very cute outfit, tall as a giraffe.
- 2:10:59Speaker 7: You're pushing your luck now.
- 2:11:01Speaker 8: Huge sunglasses, floppy hat in the mall. It's midday. but
- 2:11:07Speaker 8: it's also dreary outside. No reason to wear sunglasses in
- 2:11:10Speaker 8: the mall. And I was like, who's this bitch that
- 2:11:12Speaker 8: thinks she's Taylor Swift? And then I see her tour
- 2:11:15Speaker 8: bus in the parking lot. Not of the mall, but
- 2:11:20Speaker 8: I see her tour bus in a parking lot somewhere
- 2:11:22Speaker 8: the next day, and I was like, that was Taylor Swift.
- 2:11:26Speaker 2: I think that would only be.
- 2:11:28Speaker 8: Huh?
- 2:11:28Speaker 7: Is this Nashville?
- 2:11:30Speaker 8: No, this was Louisville.
- 2:11:31Speaker 2: I think this would only be better if you'd gone
- 2:11:33Speaker 2: up and said this to her. You would have slapped
- 2:11:36Speaker 2: the sunglasses off her face and be like, bitch, who
- 2:11:39Speaker 2: do you think you are? Taylor Swift? There's a little
- 2:11:42Speaker 2: head bob in there in the middle.
- 2:11:44Speaker 8: I was less than a foot behind her, so I
- 2:11:47Speaker 8: feel like that's probably as close as I'm ever getting
- 2:11:49Speaker 8: to Taylor Swift in my life.
- 2:11:51Speaker 2: You're right behind her. You got a good look at that.
- 2:11:54Speaker 8: I have a history of very weird interactions with celebrities.
- 2:11:59Speaker 8: Like the time Danny Trejo shoulder checked me.
- 2:12:02Speaker 2: You were asking for that, though. You're lucky he didn't
- 2:12:07Speaker 2: shiv you.
- 2:12:12Speaker 6: All right.
- 2:12:13Speaker 2: Recovering from the Marlena moment. We're moving on. Next up
- 2:12:17Speaker 2: is previously mentioned, adorable, Chris Hemsworth in Ragnarok. And this
- 2:12:24Speaker 2: was my favorite comment, certainly up there with some of
- 2:12:29Speaker 2: these others, but this is right there on the top
- 2:12:31Speaker 2: because it's creepy. I would totally creep on both Chris
- 2:12:34Speaker 2: Hemsworth and Jason Momoa, but I would be the creepiest
- 2:12:38Speaker 2: with Chris Hemsworth.
- 2:12:40Speaker 7: Jason Momoa is too, like, frat bro for me.
- 2:12:42Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I've realized that as time's gone on.
- 2:12:45Speaker 2: Where Chris just seems kind of dorky. I'm okay with him.
- 2:12:49Speaker 2: I'm all right with him. I didn't think I was
- 2:12:52Speaker 2: until Thor, but, you know, he's won me over.
- 2:12:54Speaker 8: You know who my vote is for? It's a tie
- 2:12:58Speaker 8: between Taika and Jeff Goldblum. Always in my heart. Both
- 2:13:02Speaker 8: of them. And Both of your hearts?
- 2:13:06Speaker 2: Yes. As we covered, she's an alien.
- 2:13:09Speaker 8: That's a situation where you need real life commas.
- 2:13:15Speaker 2: Commas. They're important. Otherwise, we could go eat grandma.
- 2:13:19Speaker 7: This show is brought to you by commas.
- 2:13:21Speaker 8: Right, yeah. But I mean, the fact that both of
- 2:13:24Speaker 8: them were, you know, Jeff Goldblum in a movie that
- 2:13:28Speaker 8: Taika directed is just like a perfect pairing. The picture
- 2:13:32Speaker 8: of them like Hugging and it's like adorable. It killed me.
- 2:13:37Speaker 8: I still haven't gotten over it.
- 2:13:39Speaker 2: Well, none of those are the winner though. And I
- 2:13:42Speaker 2: don't think you're going to predict it. In fact, I
- 2:13:45Speaker 2: know you're not because he was on screen a little
- 2:13:47Speaker 2: while ago and none of you could ID him. So,
- 2:13:50Speaker 2: and the winner is Timothy Chalamet, who is the lead
- 2:13:54Speaker 2: in Call Me By Your Name.
- 2:13:56Speaker 8: The man or the child?
- 2:13:57Speaker 2: The child.
- 2:13:58Speaker 8: That's creepy.
- 2:14:00Speaker 2: He's actually legal, I think. He just looks 12.
- 2:14:03Speaker 6: It's like I keep telling my best friend that doesn't
- 2:14:06Speaker 6: make you okay.
- 2:14:07Speaker 7: Right.
- 2:14:09Speaker 2: I think legally it does. That's the legal part of it.
- 2:14:13Speaker 8: No, legally it's okay, but physically it's... It's a real
- 2:14:19Speaker 8: gray area.
- 2:14:20Speaker 2: I stick with the legality of it. That's just like
- 2:14:23Speaker 2: I told the officers. I'm like, look, 18, you can't...
- 2:14:26Speaker 2: It's fine. It's fine. It's fine. The signed document from
- 2:14:31Speaker 2: her mom, it's fine. Once again, people kind of getting cute.
- 2:14:37Speaker 2: I see what you're doing. I saw your vote for
- 2:14:40Speaker 2: Gilbert Godfrey. Just saying.
- 2:14:43Speaker 8: Was he in something?
- 2:14:44Speaker 2: He's in the documentary Gilbert.
- 2:14:46Speaker 8: Oh, okay.
- 2:14:47Speaker 2: He was the Gilbert.
- 2:14:48Speaker 7: What's he do? Gilbert Scrape.
- 2:14:50Speaker 2: He's, yeah. I feel like that would be your response.
- 2:14:56Speaker 8: It wasn't.
- 2:14:57Speaker 6: It wasn't.
- 2:14:57Speaker 2: I know. It might have been.
- 2:14:59Speaker 8: I do really like Gilbert Gottfried, but no.
- 2:15:00Speaker 6: Who doesn't?
- 2:15:02Speaker 7: Me.
- 2:15:02Speaker 6: The people at Geico. I mean.
- 2:15:05Speaker 2: Not out and out dislike him, but he's pushing his
- 2:15:09Speaker 2: luck some days.
- 2:15:10Speaker 8: I mean, that thing where he was reading Fifty Shades
- 2:15:12Speaker 8: of Grey is the only way I ever want to
- 2:15:16Speaker 8: experience that book, you know?
- 2:15:18Speaker 11: Stop.
- 2:15:19Speaker 10: You know, as far as we are into this, I
- 2:15:24Speaker 10: think I could maybe list one winner.
- 2:15:27Speaker 6: Of the show.
- 2:15:29Speaker 2: That's usually how this goes.
- 2:15:30Speaker 10: And I don't even really know what that category she
- 2:15:33Speaker 10: won for is.
- 2:15:34Speaker 2: That's why we don't pay any attention.
- 2:15:37Speaker 6: What do you think is more.
- 2:15:37Speaker 10: Important, though?
- 2:15:38Speaker 12: Winning or just being nominated?
- 2:15:41Speaker 6: Probably winning, I would think.
- 2:15:43Speaker 2: Nominating doesn't hurt your career, though.
- 2:15:46Speaker 6: Yeah, but nominating... If you're just nominated, you don't get
- 2:15:50Speaker 6: to find out words of brawl if there's chocolate inside
- 2:15:53Speaker 6: that statue.
- 2:15:54Speaker 12: All right, but how many DVD cases say nominated for 12?
- 2:15:58Speaker 6: Probably most of these.
- 2:15:59Speaker 2: Some. Depends on how desperate they are that they didn't
- 2:16:03Speaker 2: win anything. Sometimes they do. I don't know.
- 2:16:06Speaker 8: What was that? I watched a terrible movie within the
- 2:16:09Speaker 8: last year. It was literally a garbage shit show, and
- 2:16:12Speaker 8: it had like four Oscar winners in it. That happens
- 2:16:15Speaker 8: a lot.
- 2:16:16Speaker 2: Just because they win an Oscar doesn't mean from that
- 2:16:18Speaker 2: point on they have to keep doing Oscar caliber movies.
- 2:16:21Speaker 8: Right, I know.
- 2:16:22Speaker 2: Return to Cuba Gooding Jr.
- 2:16:23Speaker 6: Right, I know.
- 2:16:24Speaker 2: Exactly. Check out Boat Trip and tell me how that
- 2:16:26Speaker 2: goes for you.
- 2:16:27Speaker 6: Yeah, no.
- 2:16:28Speaker 8: No, for sure.
- 2:16:29Speaker 6: It's a bad thing to get on you for busting
- 2:16:31Speaker 6: Cuba Gooding Jr. balls until you mention Boat Trip.
- 2:16:35Speaker 9: No.
- 2:16:35Speaker 6: You win. You win. Come on.
- 2:16:38Speaker 2: He's in a lot of stuff.
- 2:16:40Speaker 8: Isn't he on the up again or something? Or am
- 2:16:42Speaker 8: I just imagining?
- 2:16:43Speaker 13: I don't know.
- 2:16:44Speaker 8: No, it was like a movie. I want to say
- 2:16:46Speaker 8: it was like Creature Blub.
- 2:16:51Speaker 2: Exactly. Creature Blub.
- 2:16:55Speaker 8: I don't know.
- 2:16:55Speaker 2: Okay, we'll write that as our third movie.
- 2:16:57Speaker 6: Yeah, Creature Blub.
- 2:16:59Speaker 2: Beautiful Creatures is a movie that came out recently. I
- 2:17:02Speaker 2: haven't seen it.
- 2:17:02Speaker 8: Is it the one that has like four Oscar winners
- 2:17:04Speaker 8: and it's like garbage?
- 2:17:05Speaker 2: That I don't know.
- 2:17:07Speaker 7: Okay.
- 2:17:09Speaker 8: Is this movie set in the 80s or do they
- 2:17:10Speaker 8: just dress really stupid?
- 2:17:12Speaker 6: Ha ha ha.
- 2:17:15Speaker 8: It looks like babies.
- 2:17:15Speaker 2: Take that, costume department.
- 2:17:22Speaker 8: It was a legitimate question.
- 2:17:25Speaker 2: Not a slam at all. Alright, people talking. Next up,
- 2:17:33Speaker 2: the 2017 movie you expected to hate but ended up enjoying.
- 2:17:38Speaker 2: We got some interesting versions here, some of which I
- 2:17:41Speaker 2: didn't expect to be in this category, but First up,
- 2:17:45Speaker 2: this was, I threw it in mostly because probably not
- 2:17:47Speaker 2: that many people have seen it. So go see it.
- 2:17:50Speaker 2: seek it out I guess because people seem to like
- 2:17:52Speaker 2: it the girl with all the gifts which specifically the
- 2:17:56Speaker 2: quote was I thought going in okay another zombie movie
- 2:17:59Speaker 2: sigh But it was really good.
- 2:18:02Speaker 7: It is good.
- 2:18:03Speaker 2: I've heard several different people tell me that now.
- 2:18:05Speaker 7: The book's great, and the film is one of the
- 2:18:07Speaker 7: most accurate adaptations of a book that I've ever seen.
- 2:18:12Speaker 7: Even if you don't like zombie movies, I suggest that one,
- 2:18:13Speaker 7: because I'm not a big zombie movie fan either, but
- 2:18:16Speaker 7: it's done in a really different way. I'm surprised it
- 2:18:18Speaker 7: didn't get a bigger release in America.
- 2:18:20Speaker 2: Yeah, you would think at this point.
- 2:18:22Speaker 7: I mean, who was it? Glenn Close, right? She was
- 2:18:25Speaker 7: the big American star in it in that. jim art
- 2:18:28Speaker 7: artisan jim.
- 2:18:29Speaker 2: Artisan's awesome yeah so it's it's very good.
- 2:18:31Speaker 7: I definitely definitely suggest that one there's a sequel to
- 2:18:34Speaker 7: the book out now i don't know if they'll do
- 2:18:35Speaker 7: another movie or.
- 2:18:36Speaker 2: Not again i don't know how much it made so
- 2:18:38Speaker 2: maybe i don't know all right next up i tanya
- 2:18:43Speaker 2: which i that one we had that comment earlier i
- 2:18:46Speaker 2: was like i expected that to be a nightmare and
- 2:18:50Speaker 2: it was really well put together and obviously oscar caliber
- 2:18:54Speaker 2: because they're here tonight really.
- 2:18:56Speaker 7: Wasn't on my radar either and then a couple people
- 2:18:58Speaker 7: told me that i liked that it was good and
- 2:19:00Speaker 7: yeah i absolutely adored that.
- 2:19:02Speaker 2: Movie yeah i was surprised how good it was it
- 2:19:04Speaker 2: just looks.
- 2:19:05Speaker 8: Like a basic ass comedy when i like heard about
- 2:19:08Speaker 8: it but i don't know i guess it's.
- 2:19:10Speaker 2: It's yeah everybody's so perfect in it it's it's one
- 2:19:13Speaker 2: of those it is so ridiculous that you wouldn't believe
- 2:19:18Speaker 2: this as a movie except that we all remember that
- 2:19:23Speaker 2: going on like i like so you get to those
- 2:19:26Speaker 2: details and you're like they made that part up right
- 2:19:28Speaker 2: and then they're like no no no go back and
- 2:19:31Speaker 2: look it happened.
- 2:19:33Speaker 7: I love the documentary style and the fact that the
- 2:19:35Speaker 7: fourth wall breaking and that sort of stuff it's really
- 2:19:37Speaker 7: like jarring to see a moment of abuse then all
- 2:19:39Speaker 7: of a sudden the character turns and starts talking to
- 2:19:41Speaker 7: you it's uh It's not all comedy. It's definitely very
- 2:19:45Speaker 7: dark at times.
- 2:19:48Speaker 2: There are times when they're.
- 2:19:49Speaker 7: But the Sean, the basement dweller, that guy cracked me up.
- 2:19:54Speaker 7: I was trained in espionage.
- 2:19:56Speaker 2: That guy's pretty ridiculous. And again, you can go find
- 2:19:59Speaker 2: footage of him actually saying that nonsense.
- 2:20:01Speaker 7: Well, they got the interviews at the end, so definitely
- 2:20:04Speaker 7: stick around for the credits when you watch that movie.
- 2:20:06Speaker 2: When you're not believing how ridiculous this is, they're like, no,
- 2:20:10Speaker 2: no really, this is all real.
- 2:20:12Speaker 10: It does.
- 2:20:13Speaker 8: It looks like it's made out of old Ikea bags.
- 2:20:16Speaker 6: What does?
- 2:20:17Speaker 8: Nicole Kidman's dress.
- 2:20:19Speaker 2: Nicole Kidman's face.
- 2:20:21Speaker 8: Yeah, that too.
- 2:20:25Speaker 7: She's my vote for the best monster.
- 2:20:27Speaker 2: Of the show. Oh, yikes. Alright, so. Yeah, this was
- 2:20:35Speaker 2: the one I didn't see coming. Quite a few votes
- 2:20:38Speaker 2: for Get Out. Now, I don't know if that was
- 2:20:40Speaker 2: after all the hype. That's the only thing I could
- 2:20:43Speaker 2: think because I'm like, going in, I'm like, why one
- 2:20:46Speaker 2: way or the other? Why would you even.
- 2:20:48Speaker 8: I think it's the Jordan Peele thing.
- 2:20:51Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe Jordan Peele. That was mine because I didn't
- 2:20:55Speaker 2: see it right away. I came in to the point
- 2:20:59Speaker 2: of when it was totally blown up as the biggest thing.
- 2:21:01Speaker 2: It just won something. In just one screenplay.
- 2:21:04Speaker 7: I thought right away that I'd like it because I
- 2:21:06Speaker 7: loved Key and Peele. Yeah. Just based on his name recognition.
- 2:21:10Speaker 2: Yeah, there's no guarantee he could make this kind of
- 2:21:12Speaker 2: thing work and change gears.
- 2:21:14Speaker 8: Maybe people watch Keanu and they're like, no.
- 2:21:18Speaker 2: That cat's pretty cute though.
- 2:21:22Speaker 6: I argue that for what that is, it's not that
- 2:21:26Speaker 6: poorly written of a movie. I mean, it's got its moments.
- 2:21:30Speaker 7: Right.
- 2:21:31Speaker 8: I mean, I don't know.
- 2:21:34Speaker 2: It's got a kitten. That's the only thing I could
- 2:21:36Speaker 2: think is going in after the fact. I did go
- 2:21:39Speaker 2: in with like, all right, let's see. Is this really
- 2:21:42Speaker 2: going to be able to live up to all this talk?
- 2:21:44Speaker 2: And then I was like, no, no, it really does.
- 2:21:47Speaker 8: It really does.
- 2:21:47Speaker 2: He really kind of knows what he's doing. It's really good.
- 2:21:50Speaker 2: It's well put together.
- 2:21:51Speaker 7: I'm very excited to see where he goes next with
- 2:21:54Speaker 7: all the directing and whatnot.
- 2:21:55Speaker 2: Keanu too.
- 2:21:56Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 2:21:58Speaker 7: Keanu the cat, but in a John Wick situation. Ooh,
- 2:22:02Speaker 7: see that? Cat revenge tale.
- 2:22:04Speaker 2: That I'm fine with. Next up, The Greatest Showman. Yeah,
- 2:22:09Speaker 2: that one. As we said earlier, you're watching the trailer going, wait,
- 2:22:12Speaker 2: what did they make this from? What are they doing?
- 2:22:17Speaker 2: I still question it. I haven't watched it yet, so
- 2:22:19Speaker 2: I'm making up my mind as soon.
- 2:22:21Speaker 7: As I get around to it.
- 2:22:21Speaker 8: The Greatest Showman was exactly what I thought it would be.
- 2:22:24Speaker 8: It was very Moulin Rouge-y, you know?
- 2:22:27Speaker 2: Which is another divisive movie.
- 2:22:29Speaker 7: Right, yeah.
- 2:22:30Speaker 8: But, I mean, like, not amazing, but the songs are
- 2:22:33Speaker 8: catchy enough. It's entertaining enough. It's not, like, going to
- 2:22:36Speaker 8: make you weep.
- 2:22:37Speaker 2: Well, that's what I said on the music nominee episode.
- 2:22:40Speaker 2: I was like, I just went and listened to several
- 2:22:42Speaker 2: of the songs, and I'm like, this is full-on old-school
- 2:22:46Speaker 2: Hollywood musical. Like, it's not take the weird place that
- 2:22:50Speaker 2: they took the story from out of it, but, like,
- 2:22:52Speaker 2: production level and just, like, the level of talent that
- 2:22:55Speaker 2: they brought in and all the work that they put
- 2:22:57Speaker 2: into making the show of it, like, that is impressive. Now, again,
- 2:23:02Speaker 2: it's whether or not you think all this works with
- 2:23:04Speaker 2: the story is your call when you're watching it, but
- 2:23:07Speaker 2: it's impressive that at this point, and I say La
- 2:23:10Speaker 2: La Land is to blame, they're willing to do this
- 2:23:12Speaker 2: level of big Hollywood musical again. So, it's, that it
- 2:23:17Speaker 2: got made, I don't know that it would have without
- 2:23:19Speaker 2: La La Land being what it was last year, but.
- 2:23:22Speaker 8: Is it, is it the same person who directed Moulin Rouge?
- 2:23:25Speaker 8: Because it, like, literally felt super.
- 2:23:26Speaker 2: No, it's not bad. It is La La Land. It's
- 2:23:32Speaker 2: the guys who wrote La La Land, definitely.
- 2:23:35Speaker 8: I didn't think it was Baz Luhrmann, but it was
- 2:23:39Speaker 8: almost like, hey, let's do what Moulin Rouge did.
- 2:23:42Speaker 6: Or even.
- 2:23:42Speaker 2: Piss people off.
- 2:23:44Speaker 8: Yeah, basically.
- 2:23:46Speaker 2: Well, success! But not enough to win. So, for the
- 2:23:53Speaker 2: movie you expected to hate, but ended up enjoying, and
- 2:23:56Speaker 2: this is arguable, but The winner is Justice League. I think, Phillip,
- 2:24:03Speaker 2: we were discussing it. Maybe you put it best earlier today.
- 2:24:06Speaker 2: It didn't make me burn down the theater, so it's
- 2:24:09Speaker 2: got that going for it. I was trying to decide,
- 2:24:15Speaker 2: is that our category for next year? The movie that
- 2:24:19Speaker 2: didn't make me want to burn down the theater.
- 2:24:21Speaker 7: I expected from all the press that I would just
- 2:24:24Speaker 7: absolutely hate it like every other DC movie that I've seen. But, yeah,
- 2:24:28Speaker 7: they softened it enough. I mean, it was very disjointed,
- 2:24:31Speaker 7: probably because there was two directors. Unofficial.
- 2:24:35Speaker 13: Right.
- 2:24:36Speaker 2: Unofficial.
- 2:24:38Speaker 7: But I appreciated the comedy they tacked on. Wonder Woman's
- 2:24:40Speaker 7: bits were good. And I even thought Batman was great.
- 2:24:44Speaker 7: I liked Affleck as Batman. I liked Affleck.
- 2:24:46Speaker 6: I think Batman and Wonder Woman.
- 2:24:47Speaker 2: Were the highlights of the movie.
- 2:24:50Speaker 6: And I even liked the Flash.
- 2:24:51Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:24:52Speaker 2: He's got potential. He still hit a lot of off notes,
- 2:24:56Speaker 2: but most of that, again, was the writing.
- 2:24:58Speaker 7: His jawline was a little too chiseled for.
- 2:25:03Speaker 11: Me.
- 2:25:03Speaker 2: You're not voting for him.
- 2:25:05Speaker 7: I wasn't a big fan of what to do with Aquaman.
- 2:25:09Speaker 2: Nobody was. Which is why it kills me that he's
- 2:25:11Speaker 2: got the next movie coming out. I get it, but
- 2:25:18Speaker 2: then I don't because I'm like, it didn't work. If
- 2:25:20Speaker 2: you guys already, it didn't work just in justice league
- 2:25:24Speaker 2: he took a lot of the heat so why would
- 2:25:26Speaker 2: you now give him his own story.
- 2:25:28Speaker 7: He just comes off like a cocky frat dude.
- 2:25:30Speaker 2: Yeah and there's not much story there like the it's
- 2:25:33Speaker 2: pushing it for the story anyway with aquaman for most people.
- 2:25:36Speaker 7: The aquaman comics after the reboot that's what i was gonna.
- 2:25:39Speaker 2: Say most of the comic people love that.
- 2:25:41Speaker 7: Story but all the self-deprecation and that sort of stuff
- 2:25:43Speaker 7: i think would have worked really well i think the
- 2:25:45Speaker 7: level that most people which is who you're trying to
- 2:25:48Speaker 7: sucker in on these multi-million dollar movies like they're just
- 2:25:51Speaker 7: gonna be like aquaman and they're not gonna show up
- 2:25:53Speaker 7: for it so you'd really have to like pull in
- 2:25:56Speaker 7: some some really impressive writing and put together a good
- 2:26:00Speaker 7: movie on top of that and i don't know that
- 2:26:02Speaker 7: that's what any dc project's gonna do but anyway.
- 2:26:07Speaker 6: I feel like aquaman It could redeem itself, but it
- 2:26:10Speaker 6: probably won't.
- 2:26:12Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, I'll go see it.
- 2:26:13Speaker 6: I will leave it until... Yeah, I'll watch it.
- 2:26:14Speaker 2: I'm sure we'll be talking about it at the end
- 2:26:16Speaker 2: of this year. But that doesn't mean I'm not going
- 2:26:19Speaker 2: in with my guard.
- 2:26:23Speaker 8: Up.
- 2:26:23Speaker 2: So this one, one of my favorite categories. I will
- 2:26:26Speaker 2: not take credit for it. It was, again, shows you
- 2:26:29Speaker 2: you have a role in this show. It was just
- 2:26:33Speaker 2: suggested by a listener many years ago. I love the
- 2:26:37Speaker 2: wording on it, and I've stuck with it as something
- 2:26:40Speaker 2: that the Oscars should be doing. This category is the
- 2:26:43Speaker 2: dreariest study of the human condition in a film in 2017.
- 2:26:48Speaker 2: I love that category. So most of these, I'm like, wow,
- 2:26:54Speaker 2: that's really, really fitting.
- 2:26:59Speaker 6: First up.
- 2:27:00Speaker 7: I'd like to nominate Nicole Kidman.
- 2:27:02Speaker 2: Did you say that for all of these scary ones?
- 2:27:05Speaker 2: Why this Nicole Kidman bashing? I don't know. Wait, I
- 2:27:08Speaker 2: was doing it too. First up, The Only Living Boy
- 2:27:11Speaker 2: in New York, which I've seen the trailer for and
- 2:27:14Speaker 2: I don't really remember much else of it.
- 2:27:16Speaker 7: I didn't see that one.
- 2:27:18Speaker 2: But not heard good things.
- 2:27:19Speaker 7: I don't think I've heard of that one.
- 2:27:22Speaker 2: I'd heard of it earlier this year. I just saw
- 2:27:24Speaker 2: the trailer a couple weeks ago and I still really
- 2:27:26Speaker 2: couldn't tell you what all is going on in it.
- 2:27:28Speaker 2: So that doesn't speak highly of the trailer. Next. And
- 2:27:32Speaker 2: this one, I'm like, yeah, that's the thing. I don't
- 2:27:34Speaker 2: even like, that's why I love this category because it's
- 2:27:37Speaker 2: not even a knock on the film. A lot of times,
- 2:27:39Speaker 2: like even, when it's a great movie, I'm like, if
- 2:27:41Speaker 2: that fits, I'm like, no, you're right.
- 2:27:43Speaker 11: That's perfect.
- 2:27:44Speaker 2: Like, I Tawn Ya. Yeah, yeah, that's, I mean, can
- 2:27:47Speaker 2: you think of a better way to describe that whole
- 2:27:50Speaker 2: goings on? Drearious study of the human condition through and
- 2:27:55Speaker 2: fucking through. Next up, Mother! No, really, watch it. You're
- 2:28:04Speaker 2: gonna come right in line with that one. This one
- 2:28:08Speaker 2: is the runner-up. Got a lot of votes, and I guess, like,
- 2:28:12Speaker 2: it isn't what I thought of immediately, but Blade Runner 2049,
- 2:28:16Speaker 2: it's dark. I feel like in the end, I was
- 2:28:20Speaker 2: kind of glad it didn't win, because I feel like
- 2:28:23Speaker 2: in the end, it's trying to be much more hopeful
- 2:28:26Speaker 2: as a story, so... I can see it getting some
- 2:28:29Speaker 2: votes overall, but I don't think it comes close to
- 2:28:32Speaker 2: the winner. And the winner is Get Out. I mean,
- 2:28:37Speaker 2: once again, the dreariest study of the human condition. Yup.
- 2:28:44Speaker 2: It's perfect. I do like this write-in vote that was Easily,
- 2:28:50Speaker 2: whatever Fifty Shades film came out. Embarrassing all around. And yes,
- 2:28:54Speaker 2: I double checked. I was like, wait, the new one
- 2:28:56Speaker 2: just came out. How long ago was the other?
- 2:28:59Speaker 6: No, no.
- 2:28:59Speaker 2: Fifty Shades Darker was just the beginning of this past year.
- 2:29:04Speaker 2: They were knocking them out like within a year of
- 2:29:06Speaker 2: each other because they're lucky anybody paid attention to them
- 2:29:09Speaker 2: at all.
- 2:29:10Speaker 6: Are they done with them?
- 2:29:11Speaker 2: I hope to God they are. Did they do this poor.
- 2:29:13Speaker 6: Shit that Hollywood's been doing where they take.
- 2:29:15Speaker 2: They break up the last book. They twilighted it and
- 2:29:18Speaker 2: Harry Potter'd it and decided to break it up.
- 2:29:20Speaker 7: I have two 25 Shades of Grey.
- 2:29:24Speaker 2: Damn it. I'll give you that one. That was pretty good.
- 2:29:27Speaker 7: Thank you.
- 2:29:29Speaker 2: Alright, so as we were discussing earlier while we were
- 2:29:33Speaker 2: making our pork-filled snacks, we were having issues with the
- 2:29:36Speaker 2: way that the Oscars runs their music department and their
- 2:29:40Speaker 2: dumb rules that they make up and what gets nominated
- 2:29:44Speaker 2: and what is not qualified even though it's fine and
- 2:29:48Speaker 2: they just did it for this movie but there's a
- 2:29:50Speaker 2: weird loophole and the one time they had like too
- 2:29:53Speaker 2: many people writing the song and somehow that yeah kicked
- 2:29:57Speaker 2: them out i'm like what what are these rules and
- 2:29:59Speaker 2: where did you make them up and so i'm like
- 2:30:01Speaker 2: screw you oscars and i came up with my own
- 2:30:03Speaker 2: version of it which is why both of these new
- 2:30:06Speaker 2: next two categories exist uh it's the favorite song used
- 2:30:10Speaker 2: in a 2017 film any of them does not have
- 2:30:14Speaker 2: to be originally created from it, and in fact, the
- 2:30:16Speaker 2: way most movies use them, they're all older songs anyway. So,
- 2:30:20Speaker 2: to me, it's equally as effective, if not more so,
- 2:30:23Speaker 2: to take something old and find a new and interesting
- 2:30:27Speaker 2: way to use it in your film. So, it's open
- 2:30:30Speaker 2: to all of them, and usually those older ones are
- 2:30:32Speaker 2: the ones that get nominated. So, first up for favorite
- 2:30:36Speaker 2: use of a song in a 2017 film is Mr.
- 2:30:40Speaker 2: Blue Sky by Electric Light Orchestra. From the previously mentioned
- 2:30:44Speaker 2: awesome opening to Guardians of the Galaxy 2. Next, again,
- 2:30:49Speaker 2: it's a good way to open your movie. Next up,
- 2:30:51Speaker 2: Space Oddity by David Bowie from the Valerian opening credits.
- 2:30:56Speaker 2: Their comment is, terrible movie, awesome opening. Again, I feel
- 2:31:00Speaker 2: like it's a little harsh on the movie, but it
- 2:31:02Speaker 2: is a perfectly well put together opening. And Fitz, it's
- 2:31:07Speaker 2: just so amazingly pieced together with that song. Next up,
- 2:31:12Speaker 2: I figured this was coming in. Immigrant song from Led
- 2:31:15Speaker 2: Zeppelin from Thor Ragnarok. Is there a song that was
- 2:31:19Speaker 2: made perfectly to go in a movie like that one?
- 2:31:23Speaker 2: And it's, yeah, it's like they wrote it. Oh, this, okay,
- 2:31:28Speaker 2: side note. This was something that happened the other day.
- 2:31:31Speaker 2: And I'm such a geek and I'm so like steeped
- 2:31:34Speaker 2: in geeky things that I just assume everybody knows all.
- 2:31:40Speaker 2: We're listening to Led Zeppelin and this person that I'm
- 2:31:44Speaker 2: sitting there with hears them mention Gollum and is trying
- 2:31:50Speaker 2: to decide which came first. The song or the book?
- 2:31:56Speaker 6: Lord of the Rings?
- 2:31:58Speaker 2: I think they knew it was based on... The movies
- 2:32:01Speaker 2: were based on a book, but I think they thought
- 2:32:03Speaker 2: the books were written right before the movies came. And
- 2:32:06Speaker 2: I was like... Wow. Again, I'm enough of a geek.
- 2:32:10Speaker 6: I went.
- 2:32:11Speaker 2: like the 30s and then I googled it and it's
- 2:32:13Speaker 2: like 36 or something so I'm just like I'm pretty
- 2:32:16Speaker 2: sure Tolkien wrote those a long time ago and they're
- 2:32:20Speaker 2: like really and I'm like Jesus did I sometimes I
- 2:32:25Speaker 2: think I'm so like in my own geeky world that
- 2:32:28Speaker 2: we all have the same dumb conversations and we all
- 2:32:30Speaker 2: know this but occasionally I fall in with people in
- 2:32:34Speaker 2: the regular world and I'm like no this is just
- 2:32:36Speaker 2: stuff we sit around talking about with each other Like,
- 2:32:40Speaker 2: I forget regular people don't care about that shit. So, like,
- 2:32:44Speaker 2: the fact that, you know, in the 90s somewhere, Tolkien
- 2:32:47Speaker 2: was knocking out this series of books for a lot
- 2:32:50Speaker 2: of people, that might be true. And I was just like,
- 2:32:53Speaker 2: you're not, okay, you're not joking. Shit, okay, never mind.
- 2:32:57Speaker 8: I feel like everybody knows.
- 2:32:59Speaker 2: This was not a put-on. Like, I had to Google
- 2:33:02Speaker 2: it to make sure they knew I was not joking.
- 2:33:04Speaker 2: I was like, no, I think that was the 30s
- 2:33:07Speaker 2: he wrote those, and heck. all right i was like
- 2:33:09Speaker 2: so yeah that just reminded me i i forget what
- 2:33:13Speaker 2: the real world is like sometimes i'm so used to
- 2:33:15Speaker 2: hanging out with hobbit folk that i i forget how
- 2:33:18Speaker 2: regular people are that aside uh this one for nominated
- 2:33:25Speaker 2: for a previous guest of the show this is uh
- 2:33:27Speaker 2: bell bottoms from the john spencer blues explosion from baby
- 2:33:31Speaker 2: driver oh Marlena, would you like to take a moment
- 2:33:34Speaker 2: to talk about your run-in with John Spencer?
- 2:33:38Speaker 8: I don't even remember.
- 2:33:39Speaker 2: Jeez. I think it's time for a Marlena moment.
- 2:33:45Speaker 8: We were standing outside, and he came up to us.
- 2:33:50Speaker 8: He's like, hey, what are you guys doing? I was like,
- 2:33:53Speaker 8: we're just talking. We haven't seen each other in.
- 2:33:55Speaker 6: A long time.
- 2:33:55Speaker 8: It's like a group of us. And he was like, okay.
- 2:33:58Speaker 8: And he like ran.
- 2:33:59Speaker 6: No, no.
- 2:34:00Speaker 10: No, wait.
- 2:34:01Speaker 2: I do know this is a real Marlena moment because
- 2:34:03Speaker 2: I was there to witness it. Because I had talked
- 2:34:05Speaker 2: to him. It was after we did our episode.
- 2:34:07Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 2:34:07Speaker 2: So he knew who I was. And that's kind of
- 2:34:09Speaker 2: why he came wandering out like well after the show.
- 2:34:12Speaker 2: Most people had gone home. We won't say Jessica was
- 2:34:14Speaker 2: drunk out in the street, but that might have been
- 2:34:16Speaker 2: what happened. So we're standing out in the street and
- 2:34:18Speaker 2: Jessica's yammering on being crazy because she'd had a lot.
- 2:34:22Speaker 2: And at some point, he just comes wandering out and
- 2:34:25Speaker 2: he's like, hey guys, how's it going? And you did say, oh,
- 2:34:27Speaker 2: we're just hanging out. We haven't seen each other in
- 2:34:29Speaker 2: a while because I don't think I talked to Jessica
- 2:34:31Speaker 2: in like a year at that point. And he goes...
- 2:34:35Speaker 2: all right, I'll just fuck off then.
- 2:34:36Speaker 6: Wow.
- 2:34:38Speaker 2: And like, he kind of said it jokingly, but he
- 2:34:41Speaker 2: did fuck off. Like, he walked off and went back inside.
- 2:34:45Speaker 2: And I'm like, did we just diss John Spencer? Like,
- 2:34:48Speaker 2: what the fuck? We weren't meaning to. So this is, yeah,
- 2:34:53Speaker 2: I was there to witness that one. That was definitely
- 2:34:55Speaker 2: an awkward run-in with a celebrity.
- 2:34:56Speaker 7: John Spencer, if you're listening, I'll hang.
- 2:34:58Speaker 2: Out with you. Yeah, I had a wonderful time with
- 2:35:01Speaker 2: you that day, I'll just say. It was a great episode.
- 2:35:04Speaker 2: Go back and listen to it.
- 2:35:04Speaker 7: He's awesome. I can play some ukulele.
- 2:35:06Speaker 2: I take no responsibility for what those two were doing
- 2:35:10Speaker 2: out in the street that night.
- 2:35:11Speaker 8: I don't ever get starstruck. I'm just so naturally awkward
- 2:35:16Speaker 8: that I.
- 2:35:17Speaker 6: I don't know. You got pretty excited that time you
- 2:35:19Speaker 6: met R2-D2.
- 2:35:21Speaker 7: What was that?
- 2:35:22Speaker 6: Not Fandom Fest, but Wonder Fest.
- 2:35:25Speaker 2: Yeah, Wonder Fest is pretty... Yeah, that's true. Somewhere there
- 2:35:28Speaker 2: is a giddy picture of you with R2-DJ.
- 2:35:30Speaker 7: I don't remember that.
- 2:35:31Speaker 2: You weren't, but R2-DJ was giddy. You can tell on
- 2:35:33Speaker 2: his metal dome.
- 2:35:35Speaker 8: Yeah, but like, I don't know.
- 2:35:36Speaker 2: He was really excited.
- 2:35:38Speaker 12: I'm so weird.
- 2:35:39Speaker 2: There's our takeaway from this episode. This just in, Marlena's weird.
- 2:35:45Speaker 8: That wasn't the end of my statement, okay? I'm just so...
- 2:35:48Speaker 8: I'm so weird with people, like... I take for granted
- 2:35:52Speaker 8: that like most people understand like my interaction or like
- 2:35:55Speaker 8: my humor. Like I was watching this like video the
- 2:35:58Speaker 8: other day and this girl was talking about her interaction
- 2:36:01Speaker 8: with like a semi celebrity. And she was like, that's right,
- 2:36:05Speaker 8: you bitch. The lady did not take it very well.
- 2:36:11Speaker 8: And I was like, God, I relate to that so hard.
- 2:36:13Speaker 8: Like that's literally me in a nutshell. Like when I
- 2:36:17Speaker 8: meet someone, I'm just like, fuck you. I'm like joking
- 2:36:21Speaker 8: and they're like, all right, well.
- 2:36:23Speaker 2: That could be the first red flag.
- 2:36:26Speaker 8: This is the lady from The Greatest Show on Earth.
- 2:36:29Speaker 8: She's the bearded lady.
- 2:36:31Speaker 2: She's not wearing a beard. That beard was fake. Well,
- 2:36:35Speaker 2: I've been lied to.
- 2:36:36Speaker 7: Right.
- 2:36:39Speaker 2: All right, so there's an asterisk on the baby driver
- 2:36:41Speaker 2: and we'll get back to that in a minute. After
- 2:36:43Speaker 2: the winner, and this is, again, kind of by a
- 2:36:45Speaker 2: large margin, more than I would have expected for this song.
- 2:36:49Speaker 2: And the winner is Love My Way by the Psychedelic
- 2:36:52Speaker 2: Furs from Call Me By Your Name. A lot of
- 2:36:56Speaker 2: votes came in for that. Again, I guess a lot
- 2:36:59Speaker 2: of people just liked the movie, but I just didn't
- 2:37:01Speaker 2: see that as the big push for this movie this year.
- 2:37:04Speaker 2: But there it was. Who would have thought? Psychedelic Furs.
- 2:37:07Speaker 2: This is John Spencer and you're listening to Movie Meltdown. Okay,
- 2:37:20Speaker 2: so the asterisk on the old baby driver is, once again,
- 2:37:24Speaker 2: I need to tell people, if you guys just get together,
- 2:37:26Speaker 2: I'm not telling you you can't get together and have
- 2:37:28Speaker 2: a meeting about this beforehand. before you get all your
- 2:37:30Speaker 2: votes in. We got equally as many votes for Baby
- 2:37:35Speaker 2: Driver overall, but everybody went with a different song. So
- 2:37:38Speaker 2: we got several for bell bottoms, but we got votes
- 2:37:44Speaker 2: for Egyptian reggae. We got neat, neat, neat. We got
- 2:37:47Speaker 2: hocus pocus. We got never going to give you up.
- 2:37:50Speaker 6: Wow.
- 2:37:51Speaker 2: And we got several that just were like all the
- 2:37:53Speaker 2: songs in Baby Driver. I'm like, the category is a song.
- 2:37:56Speaker 2: Like you're not doing yourself any good. That vote doesn't
- 2:37:58Speaker 2: go anywhere. I think they should all go to bell
- 2:38:01Speaker 2: bottoms by default. That's what I'm saying. Just you guys.
- 2:38:05Speaker 2: Get together, have a Meltdown Awards meeting, and just go
- 2:38:09Speaker 2: with your vote. Get a campaign going. Get online. Hashtag
- 2:38:13Speaker 2: Meltdown Awards. I've been doing it. It's probably the first
- 2:38:16Speaker 2: thing that will pop up on Twitter. It's probably huge
- 2:38:19Speaker 2: right now, because I put it, never mind. Anyway, so yeah,
- 2:38:23Speaker 2: you guys just need to get your act together, all
- 2:38:25Speaker 2: going One Direction.
- 2:38:26Speaker 7: One Direction has a song.
- 2:38:28Speaker 2: One Direction from their wonderful concert movie. Oh, yeah. We
- 2:38:33Speaker 2: all loved it. Come on, don't laugh.
- 2:38:35Speaker 7: Harry Styles represent.
- 2:38:38Speaker 6: All right.
- 2:38:38Speaker 2: So now we go the other way, which is score.
- 2:38:42Speaker 2: All right. So favorite score in a 2017 film. And again,
- 2:38:46Speaker 2: there's weird loopholes that we don't have to worry about
- 2:38:49Speaker 2: in the foilers here. So it does not have to
- 2:38:51Speaker 2: be specifically created for the film, although most of these were.
- 2:38:55Speaker 2: But first up, Phantom Thread. The second is The Shape
- 2:39:00Speaker 2: of Water. Star Wars, The Last Jedi.
- 2:39:03Speaker 8: Okay.
- 2:39:04Speaker 2: The runner up is Blade Runner 2049. It is a
- 2:39:08Speaker 2: good score. That was the one I kind of expected
- 2:39:11Speaker 2: that one to actually go there. This one is the
- 2:39:14Speaker 2: one I'm not sure if people were actually voting for
- 2:39:17Speaker 2: the score because there is some like upbeat, fun driving
- 2:39:24Speaker 2: music in Baby Driver. But a lot of people voted
- 2:39:28Speaker 2: for Baby Driver again. And I'm like, are you just thinking,
- 2:39:32Speaker 2: I mean, you just voted for the song. Are you
- 2:39:34Speaker 2: just thinking the score is all of the songs and
- 2:39:38Speaker 2: you're calling that a soundtrack and that's one big thing?
- 2:39:41Speaker 2: I don't know. They didn't specify. So just be specific
- 2:39:46Speaker 2: when you're thinking. You already picked your song. But there
- 2:39:50Speaker 2: is score in there. So I will give them the
- 2:39:52Speaker 2: benefit of the doubt and say maybe they actually were
- 2:39:54Speaker 2: voting for the awesome, upbeat, driving music.
- 2:39:58Speaker 7: That's fair.
- 2:39:58Speaker 2: Yeah, I think so.
- 2:39:59Speaker 1: The members of the Academy have voted by secret ballot,
- 2:40:03Speaker 1: and the tabulated results are once again known only to
- 2:40:06Speaker 1: the representative of our accounting firm.
- 2:40:09Speaker 2: All right, we're coming up to the big awards here.
- 2:40:10Speaker 2: We're rounding it out. The most impressive director of a
- 2:40:14Speaker 2: 2017 film. First up, we have Paul Thomas Anderson for
- 2:40:19Speaker 2: Phantom Thread. I feel like the.
- 2:40:21Speaker 7: Score to that's actually probably pretty good. I was going
- 2:40:23Speaker 7: to add that, but I forgot, because I love Johnny Greenwood.
- 2:40:25Speaker 7: The work he does in that arena is really good.
- 2:40:28Speaker 2: Yeah, Johnny Greenwood stuff. I believe I'm paraphrasing this one.
- 2:40:33Speaker 2: I'm just kind of doing it from memory, but I
- 2:40:34Speaker 2: believe one of the votes said something to the effect of,
- 2:40:38Speaker 2: the shittier Radiohead gets, the better Johnny Greenwood scores get.
- 2:40:43Speaker 2: So it's something that I'll pick. Bonus points to you, voter,
- 2:40:46Speaker 2: because that was pretty funny. Next up, Guillermo del Toro
- 2:40:50Speaker 2: for The Shape of Water. Patty Jenkins for Wonder Woman.
- 2:40:54Speaker 2: I kind of thought she'd have more of a run.
- 2:40:57Speaker 2: She started strong and then it died off because a
- 2:41:00Speaker 2: lot of people came in with Denise Villeneuve for Blade
- 2:41:03Speaker 2: Runner 2049. That is our runner up. Still not the winner.
- 2:41:08Speaker 2: You can't beat Jordan Peele this year. The winner is
- 2:41:12Speaker 2: Jordan Peele for Get Out. It is kind of his year. Yeah.
- 2:41:17Speaker 2: All right, so now... Once again, just like my annoyance
- 2:41:21Speaker 2: with the weird things that go on in the Oscars,
- 2:41:24Speaker 2: I think it's hard for, like, Call Me By Your
- 2:41:26Speaker 2: Name movie to try to compete for the same category
- 2:41:30Speaker 2: as Star Wars The Last Jedi. Like, there's a pretty
- 2:41:33Speaker 2: big difference in those type of films. So I split
- 2:41:36Speaker 2: it up, but I always leave it up to the
- 2:41:38Speaker 2: voter to decide. So our categories are what you would
- 2:41:41Speaker 2: consider the mainstream movie of the year and what you
- 2:41:45Speaker 2: would consider the indie movie of the year. So yeah,
- 2:41:48Speaker 2: with that, we leave it up to the voters to
- 2:41:51Speaker 2: decide which side it falls on, which becomes a weird
- 2:41:53Speaker 2: gray area sometimes. But I still like having it broken
- 2:41:56Speaker 2: up into two different pieces. It kind of gives indie
- 2:42:00Speaker 2: films a chance to compete in their own way so
- 2:42:02Speaker 2: that they're not being overshadowed by multi-million dollar productions. With that,
- 2:42:08Speaker 2: the first category is favorite what you would consider mainstream
- 2:42:11Speaker 2: movie in 2017. First up is Wonder Woman. Next is
- 2:42:16Speaker 2: Thor Ragnarok. Next is Star Wars The Last Jedi. Now
- 2:42:21Speaker 2: the runner up and this one was really close like
- 2:42:24Speaker 2: kind of down to the wire as I was totaling
- 2:42:27Speaker 2: up the envelopes earlier today. The runner up was Get Out.
- 2:42:32Speaker 2: So it is for director it is his year but
- 2:42:35Speaker 2: the winner for best mainstream movie is The Shape of Water.
- 2:42:41Speaker 2: Which I again I was kind of in general pulling
- 2:42:44Speaker 2: for that to win many of these awards because I
- 2:42:47Speaker 2: think it's pretty awesome but on that one, people finally
- 2:42:50Speaker 2: came through. All right, so, finally, the favorite what you
- 2:42:56Speaker 2: would consider indie movie of 2017. First up, The Florida Project,
- 2:43:01Speaker 2: which I actually just watched this weekend, and it's, it
- 2:43:04Speaker 2: is pretty impressive, like, you, it's the perfect example of indie, like,
- 2:43:09Speaker 2: it is, considering the guy shot his last movie on
- 2:43:12Speaker 2: an iPhone, like, it's that level of indie, like, Yes,
- 2:43:15Speaker 2: he pulled in a legit actor this time, but everybody
- 2:43:18Speaker 2: else is still kind of unknowns and non-actors, and it's
- 2:43:22Speaker 2: impressive that with what he's trying to do, he still
- 2:43:25Speaker 2: delivers this caliber of movie. Next up, The Disaster Artist.
- 2:43:31Speaker 2: And this is when it starts to get questionable. Next up,
- 2:43:34Speaker 2: Phantom Thread. To me, that's the most Oscar-y kind of.
- 2:43:39Speaker 8: Pretty.
- 2:43:40Speaker 2: I mean... I'd say pretty high budget compared to these
- 2:43:44Speaker 2: other indie... Definitely the Florida Project. But again, I'm leaving
- 2:43:49Speaker 2: it up to the voters. This is not me deciding it.
- 2:43:51Speaker 2: This is what people voted for. So, Phantom Thread. The runner-up,
- 2:43:55Speaker 2: and again, came down to the wire, totaling it up
- 2:43:59Speaker 2: today before the last votes came in to break the tie.
- 2:44:02Speaker 2: But runner-up was Call Me By Your Name, which probably
- 2:44:06Speaker 2: would have been the most indie version to win this year.
- 2:44:08Speaker 2: But the winner is Baby Driver. which again, I, I, yeah,
- 2:44:15Speaker 2: I would not have categorized as an indie movie, but
- 2:44:18Speaker 2: many there, there were one or two that put it
- 2:44:20Speaker 2: on the other side, but.
- 2:44:21Speaker 7: The disaster artist I can see.
- 2:44:22Speaker 2: Yeah. Disaster artists is, it's, it's got its big celebrities,
- 2:44:28Speaker 2: but it's still a pretty low budget kind of idea.
- 2:44:31Speaker 2: But yeah, to me, baby drivers, it's a low budget
- 2:44:35Speaker 2: for a studio movie, but I still feel like it's
- 2:44:37Speaker 2: kind of a studio movie. So yeah, Either way, it
- 2:44:40Speaker 2: is really entertaining, so go see that if you haven't
- 2:44:43Speaker 2: seen it. On that note, we did get a lot
- 2:44:45Speaker 2: of other indies that were rattled off. I figure everybody
- 2:44:47Speaker 2: knows the mainstream ones, but just to go through them
- 2:44:52Speaker 2: as stuff you might want to check out because other
- 2:44:54Speaker 2: people liked them enough to vote for them. So in
- 2:44:56Speaker 2: the other indies that people were voting for, we had
- 2:44:58Speaker 2: Handsome Devil, Some Came In For A Ghost Story, Wind River, 1922,
- 2:45:03Speaker 2: which was one of the Netflix ones, The Girl With
- 2:45:06Speaker 2: All The Gifts got another mention from a different voter
- 2:45:08Speaker 2: from earlier, actually.
- 2:45:10Speaker 7: Forgot about wind river yeah it's it's not yeah i've
- 2:45:12Speaker 7: seen it it's not bad it's.
- 2:45:14Speaker 2: It's i don't see it ending up like oscar kind
- 2:45:17Speaker 2: of stuff it's not that strong but there's some really
- 2:45:20Speaker 2: good stuff in there uh ingrid goes west colossal again
- 2:45:24Speaker 2: uh rat film they previously mentioned gilbert raw i don't
- 2:45:29Speaker 2: feel home in this world anymore and the big six
- 2:45:32Speaker 2: so if i'm sure everybody's heard the big six but
- 2:45:35Speaker 2: some of those other ones you may not have checked out.
- 2:45:37Speaker 2: So those are good things to add on the list
- 2:45:39Speaker 2: and go seek them out since they're not quite as
- 2:45:43Speaker 2: big as some of the studio options you've had. So
- 2:45:47Speaker 2: with that, thank you to everyone who voted. You've made
- 2:45:51Speaker 2: this all come together. And I will say this is
- 2:45:54Speaker 2: by far the most people that came through in previous years.
- 2:45:58Speaker 2: Sometimes it was hard to get anybody to play along
- 2:46:01Speaker 2: and actually get the votes in and get them in
- 2:46:04Speaker 2: on time. So this year we had a much more
- 2:46:07Speaker 2: impressive turnout. So I thank you for all of you
- 2:46:11Speaker 2: getting together and getting your votes in. And I know
- 2:46:13Speaker 2: it's hard. It certainly was for me. I had somebody
- 2:46:15Speaker 2: do it with a different show that was doing theirs.
- 2:46:18Speaker 2: And we're like, hey, vote for these. And I'm like, oh,
- 2:46:20Speaker 2: now I understand. I don't remember anything that came out
- 2:46:23Speaker 2: last year. So I actually went through and found like
- 2:46:26Speaker 2: a site that had the listing of everything from 2017.
- 2:46:29Speaker 2: And so when I was sending the ballots out, I
- 2:46:31Speaker 2: was sending out to people going, if you don't remember
- 2:46:34Speaker 2: like me, here's all the, it had posters, it had
- 2:46:37Speaker 2: all the stuff to kind of trigger, oh yeah, I've
- 2:46:39Speaker 2: seen that, oh yeah, that performance was really good, so.
- 2:46:41Speaker 6: There were so many movies last year that it got,
- 2:46:45Speaker 6: I mean, looking back on it, all I can remember
- 2:46:48Speaker 6: are sci-fi and superhero movies, and even with those, there were.
- 2:46:52Speaker 10: A lot of them.
- 2:46:53Speaker 13: Yeah, yeah.
- 2:46:55Speaker 2: So, once again, thank you for voting. You've made this
- 2:46:58Speaker 2: show come together and be what it is in general,
- 2:47:00Speaker 2: but certainly this very specific episode every year, so. And
- 2:47:05Speaker 2: thank you for you people for being here. No problem.
- 2:47:08Speaker 2: Mostly Phillip for hosting. No problem. We needed a place
- 2:47:11Speaker 2: to put these shenanigans together. and Wes you drove way
- 2:47:16Speaker 2: too far to come that's your own doing I question
- 2:47:19Speaker 2: every year I'm always like really? he made a road
- 2:47:24Speaker 2: trip to be here people what are you guys doing?
- 2:47:26Speaker 2: you've at least got to do your part send the
- 2:47:30Speaker 2: link out to people and get it out there maybe
- 2:47:33Speaker 2: not this episode this will probably scare him away pick
- 2:47:36Speaker 2: your favorite non-Oscar meltdown episode and forward it to a
- 2:47:39Speaker 2: friend Do us a favor, damn it.
- 2:47:41Speaker 7: Phone a friend.
- 2:47:43Speaker 2: So, is there any other Oscar shenanigans to discuss tonight?
- 2:47:47Speaker 7: I don't know. Are we at Best Picture now?
- 2:47:49Speaker 6: I think so.
- 2:47:50Speaker 10: It's, I mean, we're coming up, I think it's right
- 2:47:54Speaker 10: at 11 o'clock, so.
- 2:47:56Speaker 2: We're closing in on the big ones, and it probably
- 2:47:59Speaker 2: won't be a fiasco like last time.
- 2:48:02Speaker 6: Right.
- 2:48:03Speaker 7: What if they give it to Moonlight?
- 2:48:04Speaker 2: You'd think how, like, hardcore they had to be on
- 2:48:07Speaker 2: the envelopes this year. Like, I mean. After what all
- 2:48:11Speaker 2: went on last time, they'd had a pretty good run
- 2:48:14Speaker 2: of no weird mix-ups like that for a lot of years.
- 2:48:18Speaker 2: For a long time, yeah. Like, 88 or so. But, yeah, it's...
- 2:48:23Speaker 2: That is quite a mix-up.
- 2:48:25Speaker 6: Are the.
- 2:48:26Speaker 10: Are Pricewaterhouse people still involved?
- 2:48:28Speaker 2: I would assume. I mean, they've been there since the
- 2:48:30Speaker 2: beginning almost. Yeah, I know. So I would think.
- 2:48:33Speaker 10: But, well, that's, I mean, Hollywood is not forgiving of
- 2:48:37Speaker 10: a lot of things.
- 2:48:37Speaker 2: No, they're definitely a cutthroat industry, so I guess.
- 2:48:40Speaker 6: I mean, I would hope that one mistake was, you know,
- 2:48:44Speaker 6: they're over with that.
- 2:48:47Speaker 2: So we are going to go out, as we've done
- 2:48:49Speaker 2: in the last few years, as we've been picking the
- 2:48:52Speaker 2: songs of the year, we are going to round it
- 2:48:54Speaker 2: out with this year's foiler winner for best song used
- 2:48:56Speaker 2: in a film. And that, of course, is Love My
- 2:48:59Speaker 2: Way by the Psychedelic Furs. Otherwise, that about does it.
- 2:49:04Speaker 2: We'll return next time and next year for another Oscar meltdown.
- 2:49:07Speaker 2: Same geek feed. Thanks for listening.
- 2:49:26Speaker 3: For it's a passion without gun, my love In a
- 2:49:31Speaker 3: room without a door A kiss is more than nothing
- 2:49:37Speaker 3: Love my wife, it's.
- 2:49:39Speaker 9: A new road I follow where my mind goes.
- 2:49:58Speaker 13: Emptiness behind their eyes.
- 2:50:02Speaker 2: It's dust in all their hearts.
- 2:50:29Speaker 9: It's a new road I follow Where my mind goes
- 2:50:39Speaker 9: Love my way.
- 2:50:44Speaker 2: It's a new road I follow.
- 2:51:17Speaker 9: I follow where my mind goes Swallow.
- 2:51:26Speaker 3: All your tears, my love And put on your new coat.
- 2:52:32Speaker 7: Apparently, Armie Hammer was throwing hot dogs at some point
- 2:52:36Speaker 7: during the night.
- 2:52:38Speaker 6: Yeah, that's when they were in... Apparently, from what I
- 2:52:41Speaker 6: could piece together, they have some people who were watching
- 2:52:45Speaker 6: this in a theater, like in a movie theater, like
- 2:52:48Speaker 6: it's being simulcast. And they went in and they had
- 2:52:51Speaker 6: hot dog guns that they were actually shooting at people.
- 2:52:54Speaker 7: Oh, I saw them on there.
- 2:52:54Speaker 6: That's where Gal Gadot had all the candy.
- 2:52:56Speaker 2: Seems like that should be going on at Arr. We've
- 2:53:01Speaker 2: got the pork festival going here. We really need a
- 2:53:04Speaker 2: hot dog gun.
