But some fan theories out there. so yeah. For my last pick, give me one of the best comedies of all time. Tropic Thunder. Bang. Nice. So good. Man. Now I am you're in a pickle? What are you trying to decide between? I'm in a pickle. What do you what are thinking about? So here's here's where my mind is going. Delma and Louise. n actually, you know what, my mind wasn't going there. 'Cause I forgot about that. Mm-hmm. No, I'm not gonna take Thelma. Happy feet. would be the correct pick. Nope. If you wanna win. nope. So the correct pick if if I wanted to win the fan vote, if that's what I cared about, I would draft Fight Club right here. Yeah. But I don't care. What about once upon a time? See? So that's what I'm thinking about. What about So here's here's what I'm thinking about. I'm thinking once upon a time in Hollywood, but I'm also thinking I know we said everything's on the table. It's on the table, but part of me's like, all right, we talked about twenty nineteen, we talked about Tarantino. Bro, it's a draft. You can draft it. I know I can draft it. What about Digger? So I'm thinking about Digger. So I'm thinking about Digger, but I'm also thinking about like a more fun Brad Pitt movie, like F one or Bullet Train. I thought you hadn't seen Bullet Train. No, I have. I have, okay. Man. Don't yell at me. Bullet Train's kind of fun and goofy. Yeah, Bullet Train's super fun and goofy. So it's like do I want a super fun and goofy movie? Or do I want what's actually my favorite movie? Or do I want somewhere in between? You could also take Fury. No. No, you're not a big Fury guy. That's fine, but it's just not nearly as high as those other movies are for you could take Sinbad. Don't even know what that is. Me neither. Thanks. Twelve Years a Slave. Haven't seen. There's also a fun couple of fun Tom Cruises too, like Edge of Tomorrow, Oblivion that I really like. But I just went I just said all that just to take once upon a time in Hollywood. Nice. So good pick. So my team is my draft, my squad. Uh-huh. Moneyball, tree of life, collateral. Babylon once upon a time in Hollywood. So I got four Brad Pitts to one Cruise. I've got Inglorious Bastards, Seven, Top Gun Maverick, Mission Impossible, Mission Impossible, Rogue Nation, and Tropic Thunder. So I've got three Tom Cruises and two Brad Pitts. Nice. Who do you like more? Tom Cruise. I think he's my actor. I like Brad Pitt more. I think Brad Pitt. Might be my favorite actor. We should watch the vampire diaries, that was called. Interview with the vampire. Yeah. Yeah. Don't they do a racing movie together too? I don't know. I know apparently Joe Kaczynski might be doing a F two with Tom Cruise. I don't know if Brad Pitt's gonna be in it. I thought it was confirmed Brad Pitt. Yeah, I thought it was Sonny Hayes like he's doing other racing. I don't know. Maybe. Free you're so you're a fraudulent Brad Pitt fan. That's what I'm hearing. fraud. I know that people are gonna be mad about Fight Club not getting drafted, but shut up. If you're mad, too bad. So sad. Yeah, actually. That's good because it rhymed. Yeah. Do you have any rhymes to add on to that? no, I don't have a rhyme to add on to that. All I gotta say is Just what Prim said. Mm-hmm. you got anything? Well, this is episode twenty-three. Yeah. So twenty-four, that's not century. It's not. So are are we doing another episode in the century? We are. So in two weeks it'll be century time. No, but it'll be next it'll be next week 'cause we'll record two episodes. But we don't have to we'll just do a short episode first. That's so weird. It is weird. But when we record it, we can just record twenty five first. And just like kinda kinda mess with the audience. Like just kinda mess with Or we could do Yeah, no, that's yeah. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. I don't have anything to add is the short is my short answer. Episode twenty four though. We could do just twenty four and just break it up into two and then do twenty five. Bo boom twenty five the century episode. Bam Wait, so what's twenty four? Like just part one? What? I was just saying more like do an episode this week that's not the century and then do century episode the following. In two weeks? Yeah. Just to give us more time to watch. I don't know if you need if I I I mean I could I definitely I definitely could benefit from some more time. I could too, but I could also do it. Are the fans gonna get restless if we don't that's a great that's a great point. What I like that idea. I wanna watch more movies. Okay. Is that how you're feeling? Is that the spot that you're at? That's where I'm at. All right. And also I was gonna say, can you give me some movies that I I I ha that are from this entry that you're like Yes. You gotta watch 'cause I'm gonna bring up.
