Speaker 2: Well there's Steve, but he doesn't count and count guys.

13
00:00:46,799 --> 00:00:49,439
We are here for part two of our comparison of

14
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:53,240
the movies teen Wolf and the Monster Squad, not to

15
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:57,000
be confused with Monster Squad, some kind of weird seventies

16
00:00:57,039 --> 00:00:59,520
TV show where the monsters actually were the ones doing

17
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:02,000
the crime fighting or whatever. Yeah, it was like Scooby

18
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,000
Doo or something. Is a little weird, Yeah, a little weird.

19
00:01:04,359 --> 00:01:04,439
Speaker 1: Ye.

20
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:07,079
Speaker 2: So we're back. We just got at our last episode.

21
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:10,159
We just got done talking about casting for teen Wolf.

22
00:01:10,239 --> 00:01:13,359
Now we're going to talk about casting for the Monster Squad. Yes,

23
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:14,760
what do you got? Give me? Man.

24
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:18,239
Speaker 3: Okay, So first off, you got Andre Gower, he plays

25
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:21,120
Sean Crenshaw. Can somebody tell me what the sam hell

26
00:01:21,239 --> 00:01:22,159
is going on around here?

27
00:01:24,239 --> 00:01:26,319
Speaker 2: Well, we answer, but who are you.

28
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:29,879
Speaker 4: With a monster squad?

29
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 3: Yes, this kid was like in all the eighties TV shows.

30
00:01:35,879 --> 00:01:39,799
He was in Saint Elsewhere, a team, Night Rioter, Night Court. Yeah.

31
00:01:39,799 --> 00:01:43,040
He goes on to produce The Wolfman's Gotten Yards.

32
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:46,680
Speaker 2: Wolfman's Gotten Nerds. Most famous quote from this movie. I

33
00:01:46,719 --> 00:01:49,599
think I probably saw it in the preview and I

34
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:51,400
was like, I gotta go see that movie, which I did.

35
00:01:51,439 --> 00:01:53,959
I was I was one of the literally dozens of

36
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,120
people who watched this movie in the theater. The tens

37
00:01:57,159 --> 00:02:02,599
of people literally does anyway. Yeah, so he, like you said,

38
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:07,120
he directed the Wolfman'scott Nards documentary, because, as it turns out,

39
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,080
I was in a minority of people who saw it

40
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,759
in the theater and then it went away very quickly,

41
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,280
and they all just were angry. The kid who played

42
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,560
Rudy like he gave up on acting after this, and

43
00:02:17,599 --> 00:02:20,000
he had been in stuff. He was in Kids Incorporated

44
00:02:20,039 --> 00:02:22,919
and his other stuff, and when it did poorly and

45
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:24,520
he saw it, he was just like, I just don't

46
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,159
want to I don't anybody to know about this. I

47
00:02:26,159 --> 00:02:28,840
don't have anybody to know I'm an actor. And he quit. Yeah.

48
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:30,800
Speaker 3: I heard him talk about this. He was so hurt

49
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,400
by the disappointment of this movie not doing anything, yeah,

50
00:02:34,439 --> 00:02:36,319
that he didn't want to talk about it. He didn't

51
00:02:36,319 --> 00:02:38,960
mention it to people he dated or met. He just

52
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,479
put that away, right, and then compartmentalized.

53
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:44,919
Speaker 2: He compartmentalized it. Yes, And so then twenty or so

54
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:49,400
years later, people have been seeing this movie on HBO

55
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:51,919
and it's one of those you know, it's like Beast

56
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,560
Master or Crawl. It was just on on so people

57
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,080
saw it over That's where I saw it, but it

58
00:02:56,159 --> 00:02:58,560
was it was on the underground, like it was kind

59
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,159
of this wink and nod like you know Monster Squad, Yeah,

60
00:03:01,159 --> 00:03:04,639
I know Monster Squad. Yeah. And so you couldn't get

61
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:07,360
it on DVD unless it was some bootleg that somebody

62
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,439
had filmed, you know, was stolen off a Japanese disc

63
00:03:10,599 --> 00:03:13,039
or something like that, and you had this kind of

64
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,439
collection of I don't want to call them cult followers

65
00:03:15,439 --> 00:03:17,800
because I don't know if it rises to that, but literally,

66
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:21,400
Fred Decker had no idea that this movie was popular,

67
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,639
Like it came out, and he said there were eight

68
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,719
people in the They were going to all the theaters

69
00:03:25,759 --> 00:03:27,520
like you do when your movie comes out, and when

70
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,439
you're at the premiere and there's eight people at the theater,

71
00:03:30,879 --> 00:03:34,280
it's not it's not a good sign. Right, But this

72
00:03:34,479 --> 00:03:39,080
underground following just grew and grew, and there was this

73
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,240
frustration because you couldn't get it on DVD. And this

74
00:03:42,319 --> 00:03:46,639
guy had twentieth anniversary, right, he directs a twentieth anniversary

75
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,560
little documentary. He and some other folks lead the push

76
00:03:49,599 --> 00:03:53,039
to get this movie released on DVD, and his documentary

77
00:03:53,159 --> 00:03:55,560
is on the DVD. And it's like, this became my

78
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:59,560
calling card because once New Line said okay, we'll released

79
00:03:59,599 --> 00:04:04,000
on DVD, it was their best selling DVD of the year.

80
00:04:04,199 --> 00:04:07,240
It's incredible, right, it's crazy. And so they realized they've

81
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,639
got this following and the draft house, the draft house

82
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,800
finds the negative re could they find the original film?

83
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,839
And it's in New Zealand. Yeah, it was in New Zealand.

84
00:04:17,879 --> 00:04:20,759
Which he's like, that's where films will go to die,

85
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,000
because you know, you people will. You got all these

86
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,079
collectors that they'll buy him and stuff. But once he

87
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,319
gets that far away. Nobody's going to pay the money

88
00:04:27,319 --> 00:04:28,879
to have it shipped back over here with all of

89
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,319
the care that you've got to take. So that was

90
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,319
the last one, and they got it back. They got

91
00:04:33,319 --> 00:04:36,439
it back, did one of those draft house Alamo things,

92
00:04:37,079 --> 00:04:39,959
and they got the original people to show up, right

93
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,079
who we'll talk about here in just a second. Yeah,

94
00:04:42,439 --> 00:04:44,959
And when they showed up, the place was full and

95
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,879
there was a line out the door, and they were

96
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,639
all just astounded because this was this to them nothing

97
00:04:50,959 --> 00:04:54,319
movie that was an embarrassment that now had this huge following.

98
00:04:54,759 --> 00:04:57,480
Speaker 3: When I see Fred Decker and he's being interviewed about

99
00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:59,360
the Monks Squad, he does have great pride that it

100
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,519
eventually its audience and that people love it. But it

101
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,639
looks to me like he still is stung from the

102
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,279
failure at the box office, kind of disappointed.

103
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 2: I mean, and this is the guy that directed RoboCop two.

104
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 3: He did say I saw this a great quote. He said,

105
00:05:16,319 --> 00:05:19,800
it's like taking a shot in basketball in nineteen eighty

106
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:24,360
seven and it doesn't go in until two thousand and six. Yeah,

107
00:05:24,439 --> 00:05:27,319
what a great analogy that is, Like he made it,

108
00:05:27,519 --> 00:05:29,480
nothing happened until it.

109
00:05:29,439 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 2: Did twenty years later. Yeah.

110
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, By the way, I did see some people talking

111
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,600
about how Monster Squad was on HBO a lot. It

112
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:36,920
kind of found its audience there.

113
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:37,439
Speaker 2: Yeah.

114
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,639
Speaker 3: It was one of those movies you remember a Friday

115
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:42,720
night where you would go to the Blockbuster or whatever,

116
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,000
go the video store, and your mom would say, go

117
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:46,800
pick out a movie whatever, and you'd run around the

118
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,160
store and you look for something. You know, if you're

119
00:05:48,319 --> 00:05:50,839
of a certain age, you can't grab Friday the thirteenth

120
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:52,680
or nine n ol Street. Well, you're not old enough

121
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,199
for that, right. Monster Squad was kind of a scary movie,

122
00:05:56,399 --> 00:05:59,959
but for little kids. Yeah, it's kind of like Goosebumps

123
00:06:00,079 --> 00:06:03,920
before Goosebumps, right, it's it's goonies like they're Yeah, I

124
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,720
mean it's goonies. A couple of years later with the

125
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:10,319
Universal Monsters. All right, next on the list. We talked

126
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:12,439
about him before Robbi Kiger, who plays Patrick.

127
00:06:12,519 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 5: You're not a.

128
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 2: Virgin, are you?

129
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:15,480
Speaker 1: No?

130
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:15,519
Speaker 2: No?

131
00:06:15,639 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 5: What do you mean? No?

132
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:16,879
Speaker 1: What?

133
00:06:18,199 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 2: But he doesn't count count right? And I can't find

134
00:06:21,959 --> 00:06:26,199
him anywhere other than pre this stuff, where he was

135
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:30,000
with James Hampton in the whatever, that Maggie Maggie TV

136
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:31,920
series that lasted for three episodes.

137
00:06:31,959 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 3: I do know that Robbie Kiger and Andre Gower were

138
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:39,120
really good friends before the Monster Squad, were really tight

139
00:06:39,199 --> 00:06:40,920
and then they of course they go on to play

140
00:06:41,079 --> 00:06:42,160
best friends in the show.

141
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,720
Speaker 2: So Seth Green, you know, I mean, he's been in

142
00:06:44,759 --> 00:06:48,279
a million things. Probably most memorable for our audience is

143
00:06:48,959 --> 00:06:53,839
Doctor Evil's son. Yeah, yeah, but I remember him from

144
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:57,040
the Checking the Checkers Old Checkers commercial. You remember that

145
00:06:57,519 --> 00:06:59,759
it was his first deal. But he thought he got

146
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:01,279
the he thought he had the part in this one

147
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,160
because he read with the kid that plays Sean what's

148
00:07:03,199 --> 00:07:05,319
his name again? What's the actor's name? Andre Gower? Right,

149
00:07:05,519 --> 00:07:06,959
And you had mentioned it but I kind of cut

150
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:08,879
you off. But Andre Gower is the one who then

151
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:13,000
goes on to put together and direct this this documentary

152
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:16,439
on it called Wolfman's Gotten Nerds and it's guys, it's fantastic.

00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:33,639
Speaker 3: I talked to Jeff Johnson just the other day. He

160
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:37,240
said they went to a convention over the weekend. The

161
00:07:37,279 --> 00:07:40,199
guys from the Monster Squad were there, namely Andre Gower

162
00:07:40,279 --> 00:07:44,040
and the guy who plays Rudy Ryan Lambert. They're there,

163
00:07:44,279 --> 00:07:46,079
and the girl plays Phoebe she was there as well.

164
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 2: Right.

165
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,399
Speaker 3: He said they hung out with them like they were

167

168
00:07:53,279 --> 00:07:55,079
Speaker 2: So that's awesome.

169
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I guess they they had a little connection

170
00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:58,439
there and hung out a little bit.

171
00:07:58,480 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 2: So that's when did that happen?

172
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,199
Speaker 3: Weekend? He was anxious to tell me about it because

173
00:08:02,199 --> 00:08:02,439
he knew.

174
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,759
Speaker 2: So, wow, that's great. Okay.

175
00:08:05,879 --> 00:08:08,720
Speaker 3: So Robbie Kaiger, as we said, he had been in

00:08:10,959 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 2: Rules right right?

178
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, then we've got Stephen mact He plays

179
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,879
Detective Dell Crenshaw. Recognize him from anything.

180
00:08:19,959 --> 00:08:24,439
Speaker 2: Yes, but I can't remember. Was he in total Recall? No?

181
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 3: He had been in at the TV show Hotel Okay,

182
00:08:27,879 --> 00:08:32,279
It stars James Roland, yes, who was also p W. A. W.

00:08:35,519 --> 00:08:38,159
Speaker 3: And he was also in a movie called Graveyard Shift.

185
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:38,759
Speaker 2: Okay.

186
00:08:38,879 --> 00:08:42,399
Speaker 3: Stephen King Rules right, okay, got nothing, all right? Then

187
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:46,559
you have Duncan Reger. He plays Count Dracula.

188
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:51,279
Speaker 2: Yes, Duncan Riger, Yes, got it. Yes, Yes, he's great.

189
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:56,240
He's very good. He's and he delivers a serious and

190
00:08:56,399 --> 00:09:00,840
scary performance. And the scene where he picks her up

191
00:09:00,879 --> 00:09:03,159
by the throat, they didn't tell her what's coming, and

192
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:07,240
she's literally five years old, little kid. Yeah, she's tiny, right,

193
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:10,799
And whenever he would do rehearsals or whatever, you know,

194
00:09:10,919 --> 00:09:13,600
run through the scene, he never wore the contact lenses,

195
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,679
the red contacts, right, And she had no idea what

196
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:18,840
he was going to say. And so they they've got

197
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:20,919
her on a platform so that, you know, he can lift,

198
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:24,399
and she raises up and they're like, okay, So when

199
00:09:24,519 --> 00:09:27,039
he says what he's going to say, you scream and

200
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:28,600
she's like, what's he going to say? And they're like

201
00:09:29,159 --> 00:09:33,200
you'll know, yeah, yeah, And so he says his line

202
00:09:33,399 --> 00:09:37,600
you and opens his eyes and they're all red and

203
00:09:38,159 --> 00:09:42,679
she screams, but like it was genuine fear to the

204
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,080
point that like she lost her breath.

205
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 4: Give me the ambulat and so it was like ah,

206
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,279
and so they had to do this take over again.

207
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,159
Speaker 2: But she was like I'll have it this time. I

208
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,879
got it. I can tap into that. Well, let's talk

209
00:10:01,879 --> 00:10:03,600
about her. Her name is Ashley Bank.

210
00:10:04,399 --> 00:10:07,159
Speaker 3: She turned down the role of the little girl in

211
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:08,919
Fatal Attraction to do the monster squad.

212
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:10,919
Speaker 2: Oh, the bunny girl. Any girl, geez.

213
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:14,679
Speaker 3: Yeah. She had been in Fraser, one of my favorite

214
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,759
TV shows. All right, and then she has gone around.

215
00:10:17,759 --> 00:10:20,320
She does all these conventions as well. She's older now

216
00:10:20,399 --> 00:10:22,799
she's got a kid, I think, and cool. Yeah, all right.

217
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:25,080
By the way, I forgot to mention this. The guy

218
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,679
who almost got the part of Count Dracula was a

219
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:30,639
then unknown Liam Neeson.

220
00:10:30,879 --> 00:10:33,039
Speaker 2: Really yeah, oh wow, okay.

221
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,559
Speaker 3: In fact, there was supposed to be this idea that

222
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,759
Count Dracula was going to disguise himself as a normal

223
00:10:38,879 --> 00:10:41,799
human being and like looked totally different. Liam Neeson was

224
00:10:41,879 --> 00:10:46,679
hired to be the human walking around part. They paid him, huh,

225
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:48,159
but they didn't film his scenes, and of course he

226
00:10:48,159 --> 00:10:49,000
didn't make the movie.

227
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,639
Speaker 2: Wow, okay, interesting, interesting, all right.

228
00:10:51,879 --> 00:10:54,240
Speaker 3: Tom Noonan plays Frankenstein's monster.

229
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 2: Tom Nowton. We've talked about it before, Yes, throw it,

230
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,639
throw it back again. Shane Black last action. He's right,

231
00:11:01,759 --> 00:11:04,320
he's the he's the killer that comes. He's both the

232
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:06,279
killer and the actor. That's right.

233
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's right. What the heck happened Last Action Hero?

234
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, we check it out.

235
00:11:10,639 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 3: Have you ever seen the movie Man Hunter?

236
00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:12,840
Speaker 2: I have.

237
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 3: That is the first movie that has Hannibal Lecter in it.

238
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,159
Speaker 2: Yep, it's really good. Yeah.

239
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,559
Speaker 3: And he plays the Red Dragon. I mean he's he's

240
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:21,519
the killer.

241
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,559
Speaker 2: He is known for playing monsters and killers. That's right.

242
00:11:24,639 --> 00:11:26,519
Speaker 3: Yeap, he got this part from that. By the way,

243
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:31,000
Catherine Bigelow had watched Manhunter saw him as like, I

244
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,080
have got to get him in my movie Near Dark.

245
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:36,480
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's the other vampire movie of the late eighties.

246
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:40,080
Speaker 3: Right, Bill Paxton, Jeanette Goldstein, who from.

247
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:41,159
Speaker 2: All the alien movies.

248
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, and the other guy guy who plays Bishop, like

249
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:45,360
the three people from Aliens.

250
00:11:45,399 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 2: We're going to be in Near Dark.

251
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:50,080
Speaker 3: And Catherine Bigelow was so intent on getting tom Noonan,

252
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:53,399
like she would show up at the monster squad like

253
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,440
filming nice and he said no, I told you no.

254
00:11:56,639 --> 00:11:59,080
She's like, no, I'm not leaving until you say yes.

255
00:11:59,639 --> 00:12:03,120
And he's sill. Said, now, all right, let's talk about

256
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,240
Brent Challim for a second.

257
00:12:05,279 --> 00:12:07,799
Speaker 2: Okay, he's the guy who plays horse.

258
00:12:18,759 --> 00:12:19,639
Speaker 4: Man's Got.

259
00:12:20,919 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 3: Fat Kid.

260
00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, his character is referred to as fat Kid, not Horace.

261
00:12:24,639 --> 00:12:27,919
And it's terrible. It's terrible to watch that. And I

262
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,919
mean even his friends like a fat kid farted. I mean,

263
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,919
it's just it's awful. It is, it's terrible. It's painful

264
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:35,320
to watch, Yes, it really is.

265
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:37,799
Speaker 3: The really painful though thing though, is that he never

266
00:12:37,919 --> 00:12:41,600
lived long enough to see the Monster Squad's success, and he.

267
00:12:41,879 --> 00:12:45,879
Speaker 2: Has probably short of well, he's got both of the

268
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:50,120
most memorable lines in the movie. He's wolf Man's Got Narch,

269
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:56,399
that's him and then my name, my name is Horace. Yeah,

270
00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:01,480
heck yeah, yeah. Tragically he you know, as he got older.

271
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:04,559
I think he was in his early twenties, nineteen ninety seven,

272
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,559
so he was, yeah, twenty one to two something like that. Yeah,

273
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:12,759
he had some he had some asthma problems. Then he

274
00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:16,039
got pneumonia and that he was in the hospital for

275
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,080
a while. They had a little canula. They sent him

276
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:21,120
home with oxygen the canula. Canula came out. He was

277
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,639
in bad shape. They rushed him back to the hospital

278
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:27,519
and then in the er they gave him some medicine

279
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:29,799
that they should not have given him. That with his

280
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:34,519
asthma basically ended his life. And so you know, like

281
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:37,080
family called in say goodbye, he's not gonna make it.

282
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,759
And yeah, tragically, unlike the other kids who like thought

283
00:13:40,799 --> 00:13:43,000
this movie was terrible and then found out later that

284
00:13:43,159 --> 00:13:45,240
everybody loves it, he didn't never get to find that out.

285
00:13:45,279 --> 00:13:47,240
So it's tragic, given that he's got the two best

286
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:48,559
lines in the movie. It is tragic.

287
00:13:48,639 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 3: Oh, by the way, I wanted to mention Ryan Lambert,

288
00:13:50,759 --> 00:13:51,679
the guy who played Rudy.

289
00:13:53,279 --> 00:13:56,720
Speaker 2: I'm in the Damn Club ar. Yeah, okay, he was

290
00:13:56,799 --> 00:13:59,039
in Kids Incorporate. He's incorporated and you sent me a

00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:01,919

I showed you the picture. They're there together, they played

295
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,120
the they played the kids songs in the kid Club together.

296
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:16,480
That's incredible. Yeah.

297
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,279
Speaker 3: Do you know that he is an ordained minister.

298
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,559
Speaker 2: I know that he's an ordained minister. And I also

299
00:14:22,679 --> 00:14:25,759
known that he presided over the wedding of you go

300
00:14:25,759 --> 00:14:28,039
ahead and say it. I know you know it. Freak stallone,

301
00:14:28,159 --> 00:14:34,519
no no, no needle drop for barking right now, Oh

302
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:41,200
my gosh. All right.

303
00:14:41,639 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 3: Uh. You also have Michael Faustina, who plays Eugene. He

304
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:47,200
was in Blank Check and Suburban Commando.

305
00:14:47,039 --> 00:14:51,759
Speaker 2: Blank Check, blank Check, the Blake Snyderscript, the guy who

306
00:14:51,799 --> 00:14:52,679
wrote to Save the Cat.

307
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:55,879
Speaker 3: That's right, Yeah, that's right, all right, And now we're

308
00:14:55,919 --> 00:14:58,960
getting to some people I actually know. Jonathan Greese plays

309
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:03,039
the Wolfman, yes, or Desperate Man as it says.

310
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:05,159
Speaker 2: Yes, because they had to be careful because they didn't

311
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:08,480
have rights to the Universal monsters. Right. Yeah, But we

312
00:15:08,799 --> 00:15:10,799
just talked about him a little bit early. It was

313
00:15:10,799 --> 00:15:14,440
earlier this year, right, we did Real Genius Versus Weird Science,

314
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:18,200
and he of course plays as low as Low. That's it.

315
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,720
Speaker 3: He plays las Low. He was also in Running Scared.

316
00:15:21,759 --> 00:15:23,399
He's one of the detectives and Runing Scared.

317
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:23,799
Speaker 2: Oh yeah.

318
00:15:23,879 --> 00:15:26,120
Speaker 3: And also Napoleon Dynamite Uncle Rico.

319
00:15:26,159 --> 00:15:28,559
Speaker 2: He's Uncle Rico. So I could throw this football over

320
00:15:28,639 --> 00:15:29,039
that mountain.

321
00:15:30,919 --> 00:15:33,639
Speaker 3: Thing's funny. Man, he's great, you know in this he's

322
00:15:33,679 --> 00:15:35,919
a little over the top when he's like, arrest me,

323
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:38,919
arrest me, you know, and they end up having a

324
00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:39,399
shoot him.

325
00:15:39,639 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 2: Yeah.

326
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:45,200
Speaker 3: So Mary Ellen Trainer is the mom.

327
00:15:45,559 --> 00:15:48,679
Speaker 2: She's in so many things. We talked about this, so

328
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,279
many things she's in. Obviously, she's in Lethal Weapons. She's

329
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,720
the mom in the Goonies, which is I mean, it's

330
00:15:53,799 --> 00:15:55,600
just an ironic crossover here.

331
00:15:55,559 --> 00:16:01,240
Speaker 3: And you'll be in deep, the absolute deepest mine. That's it.

332
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:02,000
Speaker 4: I don't like her.

333
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, she's in lethal Weapon. She's in die Hard. Okay,

00:16:07,639 --> 00:16:09,600

Speaker 2: She's the friend of Genny who drops little Forest off.

342
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:33,600
She's like, I gotta go, gotta run and walks out

343
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:35,799

German guy.

Speaker 2: Ah yes, yeah, yeah, the guy that you think is

356
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,319
the bad guy but ends up being the best, most

357
00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:14,400
likable character in the movie. Yep.

358
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:15,839
Speaker 3: One other guy that I want to bring up to

359
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:17,079

360
00:17:17,279 --> 00:17:20,160
Speaker 2: Jason Hervey from the Wonder Years and who we just

361
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:25,720
talked about in Peewee's Big Adventure. That's right, I was ready.

362
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:26,799
Speaker 3: I've been ready.

363
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:30,400
Speaker 2: Roll Okay, tell me this. In that last scene in

00:17:47,599 --> 00:17:47,759
Speaker 3: Is it?

Speaker 2: Is it? Walter Walter, which, of course Fred Savage who

371
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:53,920
is also in the Wonder Years with him. That's he's

372
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:58,519
wearing Walter Payton jersey in the Princess Princess. That's a

373
00:17:58,960 --> 00:17:59,359
I love it.

374
00:17:59,599 --> 00:18:01,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, here's my nugget I'm ready to drop

375
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:06,640
on you. So you have Lisa Fuller who plays Lisa Rhodes. Okay, yes,

376
00:18:07,519 --> 00:18:14,880
and that's the version, the non version, that's your sister majors. Right, yeah,

377
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,200
here's my here's my nugget. Okay, totally nobody else cares

378
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,119
about that but me, you and maybe a couple of

379
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:23,480
guys who went to Shirley Fast. Okay, her husband you

380
00:18:23,559 --> 00:18:27,440
know his name, married a guy. His name is Dan Goutier.

381
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:31,720
Speaker 2: Is he spelled like our friend, he spells it Gothier? Yep? Nice,

382
00:18:31,799 --> 00:18:32,799
here it does there you go?

383
00:18:33,519 --> 00:18:36,240
Speaker 3: So apparently a little French thing.

384
00:18:36,519 --> 00:18:38,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, very nice. Okay.

385
00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:41,519
Speaker 3: And then also the only other thing I was going

386
00:18:41,559 --> 00:18:44,680
to bring up to you is you have Tom Woodruff Junior,

387
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:45,759
who plays Gilman.

388
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:48,119
Speaker 2: All Right, you know what that ties in perfectly to

389
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,880
what we're going to talk about next, which is special effects. Right,

390
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:54,039
and just again, you know I said this in our

391
00:18:54,079 --> 00:18:56,920
first the first part of this comparison. I feel like

392
00:18:57,079 --> 00:18:59,599
we had a movie that shouldn't have made it but

393
00:18:59,759 --> 00:19:03,240
did because of master marketing, master marketing, and I have

394
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:05,599
and we have a movie that should have made it

395
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:09,440
but didn't, which I think was also due to terrible marketing, right,

396
00:19:09,799 --> 00:19:12,799
Monster Squad, what do they do? They they put wanted

397
00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:17,160
posters of the monsters up as they're advertising. Like, that's

398
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,119
the worst idea I've ever heard. I mean, this is

399
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:23,839
the late eighties. You've got all of these you got goonies,

400
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,640
you got all of these John Hughes movies. This is

401
00:19:27,279 --> 00:19:30,119
this They've got a very Spielberg style of this movie.

402
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:31,559
You advertise it like.

403
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:34,519
Speaker 5: That, and then not to mention, you've got the guy

404
00:19:34,559 --> 00:19:37,759
who wrote freaking Lethal Weapon as the writer of this movie.

405
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:41,079
You say, from the writer of Lethal Weapon, and you

406
00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:44,240
show the you show the trailer, whereas Wolfman's got arts.

407
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:46,559
That is what That is the way you market this movie.

408
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:49,279
Not wanted posters of the Mummy and gil Man. And

409
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:51,640
they were terribly drawn, Like yeah.

410
00:19:51,519 --> 00:19:54,359
Speaker 2: They're not even faith Yeah, it was like a pencil drawing.

411
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,920
It was. It was very, very bad. But anyway, just

412
00:19:58,039 --> 00:20:00,319
to emphasize my point of this movie should have made it.

413
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,000
The guy who was in charge of special effects for

414
00:20:03,079 --> 00:20:07,640
this movie, Stan freaking Winston wins He's a mass icon, right,

415
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:11,559
He's just an icon star Wars. I mean he's the guy,

416
00:20:11,839 --> 00:20:18,680
you know, the gopher on Caddyshack, lest we forget, go

417
00:20:18,839 --> 00:20:21,759
back and check out our Caddyshack versus Happy Gilmour episode.

418
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:25,799
And so anyway, stan Winston's in charge. They don't have

419
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:27,839
the rights to the monster movies. All these guys that

420
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:30,839
he's got to work on it with him, they're like, oh, man,

421
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:32,599
you know, we wanted to make the monsters like. We

422
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:35,640
can still make the monsters, they just can't look like

423
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:39,880
exact right. And so Frankenstein in the Monster Squad has

424
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:42,079
the bolts on his head instead of his neck, and

425
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:45,000
a lot of this is stan Winston's drawings, right. Dracula

426
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:48,480
is kind of a classic look of Dracula, not very

427
00:20:48,519 --> 00:20:51,920
bela Legosi at all. And then Creature from the Black Lagoon.

428
00:20:52,039 --> 00:20:54,319
They never call him that, they call him gil Man.

429
00:20:55,319 --> 00:20:58,799
Wolfman is like a combination of a whole because there

430
00:20:58,839 --> 00:21:01,960
were a ton of where Wolf movies in that time period.

431
00:21:02,079 --> 00:21:04,240
The one he looked most like to me was the

432
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:07,119
Oliver Reed, like the Curse of the Wolf Man. He

433
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:09,200
had that, you know, the torn white shirt and the

434
00:21:09,319 --> 00:21:11,440
jeans on it. Just it looked like that to me.

435
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,759
So anyway, you get all of these guys doing makeup

436
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,480
and one of those guys is Tom Woodroff junior, right,

437
00:21:18,079 --> 00:21:20,759
and so he's he and they all have gone on

438
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:23,480
to become great famous makeup artists in their own right,

439
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,160
but they're new guys at this point. But he had

440
00:21:26,279 --> 00:21:29,240
made a body cast for himself just so that he

441
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:31,680
could put different things on it, but it was his

442
00:21:31,839 --> 00:21:34,559
own body, right, And so they get to the point

443
00:21:34,599 --> 00:21:36,359
that they're like, hey, we're we need to do the

444
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,880
Gillman costume, which is another couple of guys was doing.

445
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:42,079
He was working on Frankenstein. And he's like, well, I've

446
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,279
got my body mold, you can use that. And so

447
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:47,200
they they put the costume, which is I mean a

448
00:21:47,279 --> 00:21:50,880
one piece deal for Gilman, on the mold that Tom

449
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,319
Woodroff had created out of his own body, right. And

450
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:55,880
so once he sees the costume, he's like, I never

451
00:21:56,039 --> 00:21:58,480
do this, But I pushed and I said, Stan, I

452
00:21:58,559 --> 00:22:00,359
want to be the guy. I want to be the Gilman.

453
00:22:00,559 --> 00:22:02,599
You're not gonna see my face. I'll have everything on.

454
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:05,440
I don't really know. It's good. Ida's like police, And

455
00:22:05,559 --> 00:22:07,599
so they let the guy, the guy who did the

456
00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:12,559
makeup for Frankenstein was the guy who played Gilman. It

457
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:14,880
was one piece suit there was no exit holes.

458
00:22:15,039 --> 00:22:15,400
Speaker 5: I love it.

459
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:18,440
Speaker 2: No peeing. You can't pee, and the first thing that

460
00:22:18,519 --> 00:22:22,359
you do is you go in the ice cold water. Yeah,

461
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:25,519
he said he fell shot all day. He was exhausted,

462
00:22:25,559 --> 00:22:28,200
went back to his trailer, fell asleep in the costume,

463
00:22:28,319 --> 00:22:31,960
and woke up not remembering that he was still in

464
00:22:32,039 --> 00:22:35,599
the costume. And it was like a panic attack. It's like,

465
00:22:36,599 --> 00:22:38,240
you got to calm yourself down. What's going on?

466
00:22:38,599 --> 00:22:41,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, you're talking special effects and this is

467
00:22:41,559 --> 00:22:44,079
the eighties, this is before CGI. You know, you had

468
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:46,640
to kind of conform to the demands in the suit.

469
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:49,359
So it's a one piece suit and it's it looks

470
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:52,160
super cool, Like I love the Gilman outfit in this

471
00:22:52,559 --> 00:22:55,480
the Wolfman can't move his he has no movement in

472
00:22:55,559 --> 00:22:57,720
his neck. He looks a little stiff. But I really

473
00:22:57,839 --> 00:23:01,079
like Gilman. I think Frankenstein's great. Them is awesome. But

474
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:03,319
I also flipped back to Team Wolf for a second.

475
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,880
The guys who did the makeup and special effects over there.

476
00:23:06,039 --> 00:23:08,440
When they would put Michael J. Fox and Jeff Glossman

477
00:23:08,599 --> 00:23:11,519
in the Wolf, they had to drink milkshakes all day

478
00:23:11,759 --> 00:23:13,839
because and I thought this is really weird. I thought

479
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,039
it was like, you couldn't get big. It's because if

480
00:23:16,079 --> 00:23:18,279
you chew, you're messing up all the makeup. It just

481
00:23:18,519 --> 00:23:20,680
stuff just begins to fall off your face, right, And

482
00:23:20,759 --> 00:23:23,119
he said, on top of that sweating which they were

483
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:25,720
doing in the basketball arena, you know, it absorbed sweat.

484
00:23:25,799 --> 00:23:28,039
So it's like he's like, any time of the day

485
00:23:28,039 --> 00:23:32,200
you could go just be squored out sweat. So they

486
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,799
couldn't eat anything, just milkshakes, and then it was still

487
00:23:35,839 --> 00:23:37,920
a challenge to keep it all on his face. Jeff

488
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:41,119
Glossman said they were playing basketball one day. He went up,

489
00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:43,839
got a rebound turn and a guy he caught a

490
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:47,319
stray elbow and it messed everything up and they had

491
00:23:47,319 --> 00:23:49,759
to shut it down just to reapply the makeouks.

492
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, so we're about to get in sounds like

493
00:23:52,279 --> 00:23:54,440
special effects for teen Wolf. But just before we go,

494
00:23:54,519 --> 00:23:58,359
there two guys that we haven't mentioned. John Rosngrant and

495
00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:04,359
Shane Mayhan were both involved with Monster Squad. Rosengrant did

496
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:09,519
the Wolfman costume. Shane Mayhan did the Mummy costume. By

497
00:24:09,559 --> 00:24:11,400
the way, Mummy played by the guy who was the

498
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:16,279
skinny guy in Batman and Robin the Bane before he

499
00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:21,480
became big same guy anyway, those two guys, Rosenngrant and Mayhan.

500
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:24,160
Both of those guys went on to work together on

501
00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:26,720
Avatar The Way of Water. There you go. Yeah, I

502
00:24:26,799 --> 00:24:29,960
love that movie. Yeah, oddly neither one of them did Gilman.

503
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:32,720
I don't know how that worked anyway. So back over,

504
00:24:33,319 --> 00:24:36,759
jump back into Teen Wolf special effects. Alex P. Keaton's

505
00:24:36,759 --> 00:24:39,319
putting yak hair on his face and wondering why he's

506
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:43,319
gonna be high school monster movie instead of with crazy

507
00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:47,359
Crispin over at that Steven Spielberg movie. Yes for sure.

508
00:24:47,799 --> 00:24:50,799
Speaker 3: Okay, So the three main people responsible for the effects

509
00:24:50,839 --> 00:24:53,440
for Teen Wolf, yep, you have Thomas Berman, you have

510
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:55,440
Jeff Dawn, and you have Kyle Sweet.

511
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:57,640
Speaker 2: Okay, I give you info in two of those.

512
00:24:57,839 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I got the third one, I think.

513
00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:04,960
Speaker 2: Okay. Thomas Berman first job in Hollywood, and he was

514
00:25:05,079 --> 00:25:08,599
uncredited for this, but was planned the apes nineteen sixty eight.

515
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,640
He was putting yak hair on people's faces again, right,

516
00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:14,440
and then he goes on to do a lot of stuff.

517
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:19,240
Does Invasion of the Body Snatchers the old like nineteen

518
00:25:19,319 --> 00:25:22,920
seventy eight one with Donald Sutherland in it? Right? Does

519
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:26,680
Scrooged actually gets nominated, if not won the Oscar for

520
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:31,240
the makeup on Scrooge. And a year after this came out,

521
00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:33,279
he did the makeup for Howard the Duck.

522
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:37,039
Speaker 3: Wow, that's a movie.

523
00:25:37,079 --> 00:25:37,559
Speaker 2: We gotta do.

524
00:25:37,799 --> 00:25:39,119
Speaker 3: What the heck happened on at some point?

525
00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:42,119
Speaker 2: Absolutely so. The other guy you mentioned was Jeff Dawn. Now,

526
00:25:42,319 --> 00:25:46,119
Jeff down did the special effects for Terminator two, which

527
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:49,799
we talked about, did the special effects for Total Recall,

528
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:52,759
which we talked with the thirty something movie guys about

529
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:55,440
like four years ago. I think the heck, that may

530
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:58,680
have been twenty twenty. That might have been that long ago.

531
00:25:58,799 --> 00:26:00,480
That was a long time ago. Go guy, go check

532
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:03,160
out the thirty something movie podcasts. Are good thoughts over there,

533
00:26:03,319 --> 00:26:06,839
lots of good stuff. ILLINOI contingent over there, yep. And

534
00:26:07,559 --> 00:26:11,279
for our friend and just an awesome dude, Chuck Bryan,

535
00:26:11,759 --> 00:26:14,960
he's over there at the Cinematic Flashback podcast. Good check.

536
00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:17,400
Be sure and check that one out. Jeff Don did

537
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:22,480
the makeup for Star Trek for the Voyage Home. It's

538
00:26:22,519 --> 00:26:22,880
a good one.

539
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:24,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, I got a little bit for you

540
00:26:25,039 --> 00:26:25,960
on Kyle Sweet.

541
00:26:26,559 --> 00:26:29,279
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, Kyle Sweet. Kyle is there like an R

542
00:26:29,319 --> 00:26:31,920
and b guy named Kyle Sweet. I don't know anyway,

543
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:35,920
go ahead, Kyle Sweet is actually a woman? Oh okay?

544
00:26:36,279 --> 00:26:41,640
Speaker 3: And no, no, Kyle Kyle Okay, and she's pretty pretty

545
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:42,079
hot woman.

546
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:44,359
Speaker 2: Really. I wonder if she goes to the Kyle Convention

547
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:47,920
every year. Did you know that there's a convention of

548
00:26:48,039 --> 00:26:52,160
Kyle's what? Yes, like like guys, because I didn't know

549
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:54,160
they were a girl's named Kyle. They all get like,

550
00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:56,240
I have that this big convention. If your name is Kyle,

551
00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:57,559
you can go to the Kyle Convention.

552
00:26:57,759 --> 00:27:00,680
Speaker 3: I imagine she would be pretty popular at the Kyle Convention.

553
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:01,640
Speaker 2: Okay, okay.

554
00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:04,759
Speaker 3: So she did makeup work on Night of the Creeps,

555
00:27:05,279 --> 00:27:07,559
which of course is a Fred Decker movie. Right, so

556
00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:10,079
she had done nine of the Creeps. Here's the interesting

557
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:12,680
thing about Kyle Sweet. In one of the scenes where

558
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:15,240
the space Slugs get a guy a Night of the Creeps,

559
00:27:15,319 --> 00:27:17,599
you can see graffiti on the bathroom wall that says

560
00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:21,400
Striper rules like the rock group Striper.

561
00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:24,039
Speaker 2: The Christian rock Christian heavy hair metal.

562
00:27:24,279 --> 00:27:28,240
Speaker 3: Hey, I like Stripper had an album we Know Your History. Yeah,

563
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:33,079
but she married Michael Sweet, who is the lead singer

564
00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:33,640
of Stripper.

565
00:27:33,759 --> 00:27:33,960
Speaker 5: Ah.

566
00:27:34,599 --> 00:27:35,319
Speaker 2: Well, there you go.

567
00:27:35,559 --> 00:27:38,359
Speaker 3: That's why you have these stripper striper rules. There you go.

568
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:43,799
Speaker 2: Great, good story. Okay. So the composer for the Monster Squad, yeah,

569
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:47,200
guy named Bruce Broughton. Pretty sure that we brought him

570
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,839
up before because he was the composer for Tombstone, I mean,

571
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:53,759
among many other one. Okay, but anyway, I don't know

572
00:27:53,839 --> 00:27:56,200
that the score of this movie particularly stuck out to me.

573
00:27:56,279 --> 00:27:58,119
It's good, it does what it's supposed to do, but

574
00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,400
it didn't register. But it's not supposed to.

575
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:00,720
Speaker 3: I don't know.

576
00:28:00,799 --> 00:28:01,160
Speaker 2: It's good.

577
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:05,240
Speaker 3: It's good enough, right yeah, well, no, not so much.

578
00:28:05,319 --> 00:28:06,839
But I do have a little tidbit for you on

579
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:09,680
the music of the Monster Squad. Okay, so there's two

580
00:28:09,759 --> 00:28:11,160
songs I want to bring up to you in the

581
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,079
Monster Squard. One is called rock until You Drop, not

582
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,079
rock Rock until you Drop. You know that's a deaf

583
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:34,640
leverd song. Okay, Rock until you Drop? And the Monsters

584
00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:35,839
Squad rap.

585
00:28:43,799 --> 00:28:44,400
Speaker 5: Stop there.

586
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:55,160
Speaker 2: We'll stand up for the right on the mouth comes down? Yes, right, yeah,

587
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:56,400
I remember that. Okay.

588
00:28:56,599 --> 00:28:58,960
Speaker 3: Now, both of these were performed by a guy named

589
00:28:59,039 --> 00:29:02,039
Michael Simbelo. Okay, does that name ring a bell to you?

590
00:29:02,559 --> 00:29:06,079
Speaker 2: It does? But I don't remember from what he had.

591
00:29:06,079 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 3: A massive one hit wonder from the eighties that I'm

592
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:10,759
gonna play.

593
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:11,119
Speaker 4: For you right now.

594
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:22,599
Speaker 2: Okay, recognize this one. Yeah, this is She's a maniac

595
00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:26,079
like this is. I have two songs from the movie

596
00:29:26,119 --> 00:29:28,880
Flash Dance on my phone and this is one of them.

597
00:29:29,279 --> 00:29:30,960
Speaker 3: She's a maniac, dude.

598
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:32,000
Speaker 2: This is a great song, I know.

599
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:34,119
Speaker 3: Michael Simbello, Wow about that.

600
00:29:34,319 --> 00:29:36,400
Speaker 2: That's a good one. All right, good one. Okay. So

601
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:39,039
we're gonna talk music from teen Wolf. The only thing

602
00:29:39,079 --> 00:29:41,400
I got for you on the music from teen Wolf

603
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:45,920
Beach Boys. Beach Boys, You've got the massive Surfing USA drop,

604
00:29:46,359 --> 00:29:48,759
and you know, you know that some idiots were out

605
00:29:48,759 --> 00:29:50,920
there surfing on the top of vans after this. I

606
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:53,440
wonder if there's anybody with, like, you know, a vegetable

607
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:55,960
in a chair now because they decided to band surf. Sorry,

608
00:29:56,039 --> 00:29:59,400
please don't call the show that's you. I mean, not

609
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:04,920
that you could, you know, going straight to hell for

610
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:06,920
that one. Okay.

611
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:10,599
Speaker 3: So, yes, you have the massive Beach Boys needle drop,

612
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:13,680
where a whole new generation is exposed to surfing USA.

613
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:16,839
Hello Deaf Dave love it the song they really wanted

614
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:20,880
for this movie but didn't get because they couldn't afford it, Okay,

615
00:30:21,119 --> 00:30:23,400
and I imagine it's because they had landed surf in

616
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:26,240
USA and didn't have anything left over. They want to

617
00:30:26,279 --> 00:30:27,119
wear Wolves of London.

618
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:29,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I kind of expected it to be there. Yeah,

619
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:32,880
they got some similar They have some similar sounding songs,

620
00:30:33,079 --> 00:30:35,599
like when he comes in for the dance. That song

621
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:38,359
has a very Werewolves of London vibe to it. Yeah.

622
00:30:38,599 --> 00:30:42,799
Speaker 3: I heard Susan Rcetti talking about she believes that the

623
00:30:43,079 --> 00:30:45,839
closing song when he hits the free throw at the

624
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:48,599
end of the movie and you have that the needle

625
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:54,240
drop of that crappy, sappy song, She's like, I feel

626
00:30:54,279 --> 00:30:56,559
like that could have been a hit, you know. And

627
00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:59,839
I was like, no boof no, no hu to me,

628
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:03,960
there's a few problems that I have with Teen Wolf, Yeah,

629
00:31:04,359 --> 00:31:07,319
and that is one of them. The song at the

630
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:08,319
end sucks.

631
00:31:08,599 --> 00:31:11,279
Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, all right, that's that's fair. I thought you

632
00:31:11,359 --> 00:31:14,359
were gonna say something about the opposing player standing underneath

633
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:17,000
the goal while you shoot. That is the technical foul

634
00:31:17,079 --> 00:31:17,680
free throws.

635
00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:21,759
Speaker 3: Listen, the fact that that there's a werewolf playing basketball

636
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:25,240
got no problem with no problems the opposing player standing

637
00:31:25,319 --> 00:31:26,960
underneath the basket while you shooting free throw at the

638
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:28,680
end of the game. Can't happen.

639
00:31:28,839 --> 00:31:33,119
Speaker 2: It's not right breaking the rules. I have seen some

640
00:31:33,359 --> 00:31:36,079
crazier stuff go down in high school games. I promise

641
00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:39,480
you that, and the ref just let it happen. That's ridiculous,

642
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:43,119
it is. Yeah, yeah, okay, well, okay, before we before

643
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:44,559
we move on, I just want it there. It's a

644
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:48,359
couple of things. There's that thing, and there's this huge thing.

645
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:51,119
And I'm gonna look at you guys, because you've probably

646
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:54,519
if you're familiar at all with Teen Wolf, you're probably

647
00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:59,319
familiar with that very last closing scene, just as it's

648
00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:02,200
freeze from and the credits start to roll. Let's talk

649
00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:05,640
just before that, somebody pointed out at some point when

650
00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:08,480
you've got the VCR tape or the DVD or whatever,

651
00:32:08,759 --> 00:32:13,400
you're like, there's a dude standing up and his pants

652
00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:17,839
are unbuttoned and it looks like his johnson might be out. Yeah,

653
00:32:18,039 --> 00:32:21,599
and like it's gone on like that. Everybody's looked at

654
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:23,440
it carefully, like, dude, that could be it. But you know,

655
00:32:23,519 --> 00:32:26,519
it's framed in such a way that it's not in focus, right, it's.

656
00:32:26,559 --> 00:32:29,119
Speaker 3: Right behind Michael J. Fox and James Hampton.

657
00:32:29,319 --> 00:32:34,160
Speaker 2: Literally the last scene in motion of the movie stands

658
00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:37,799
up and they're like buttoning on their pants. Right, So

659
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,480
there's this big controversy to this guy have his wang

660
00:32:40,559 --> 00:32:43,200
out as they're filming this len and they missed it

661
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:48,680
and name you mean my waning? They missed it and

662
00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:51,160
left it in the movie. There's the penis in the movie.

663
00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:53,720
So these guys went to do some investigation, right, they

664
00:32:53,839 --> 00:32:55,359
really wanted to find out. They tried to find out

665
00:32:55,359 --> 00:32:57,039
who the actors were in the scene, couldn't find it,

666
00:32:57,079 --> 00:33:00,160
couldn't find who who the extras were until.

667
00:33:00,359 --> 00:33:01,799
Speaker 3: I will tell you this before you tell us the

668
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:06,160
until the editor of the movie. Yeah, got lit up

669
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,519
by the director like how could you?

670
00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:10,839
Speaker 2: How could you miss that? Right?

671
00:33:11,119 --> 00:33:13,319
Speaker 3: And she's like, dude, what are you talking about?

672
00:33:13,359 --> 00:33:15,640
Speaker 2: You're the one who shot you right there?

673
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:16,839
Speaker 5: I wasn't that right.

674
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:19,960
Speaker 3: This signing of blame was was kind.

675
00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,880
Speaker 2: Of hard on. And so these guys do an investigation.

676
00:33:23,319 --> 00:33:27,559
They find the original negative and it turns out that

677
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:31,039
they filmed it in a different ratio than you actually

678
00:33:31,119 --> 00:33:33,200
see it. What the ratio they filmed it in is

679
00:33:33,319 --> 00:33:36,359
taller than what we got. They cut it down, and

680
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:39,160
so what they were able to do was lift back

681
00:33:39,279 --> 00:33:43,279
up and see who that person was. And I can

682
00:33:43,359 --> 00:33:45,160
promise you she didn't have her cout.

683
00:33:48,759 --> 00:33:50,519
Speaker 3: Yes, it's very clearly a woman.

684
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:53,200
Speaker 2: It's a lady. It's not a guy at all. And

685
00:33:53,279 --> 00:33:55,839
maybe she had her pants undone. I mean they were

686
00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,200
tight jeans back in those days, and they were mom jeans.

687
00:33:58,240 --> 00:33:59,839
They gotta be cutting into You tell me when you've

688
00:33:59,839 --> 00:34:04,880
been filming all day long unploated and some unbuttoned after lunch, man, Yeah,

689
00:34:05,079 --> 00:34:06,440
we've all been there. Yeah.

690
00:34:07,559 --> 00:34:10,920
Speaker 3: So I love that we discussed it. We can kind

691
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:13,639
of put that one that that to bed. That is

692
00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:18,239
an urban myth. It is not really some guy exposing himself. Right, Okay,

693
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:20,639
I've got a couple of tidbits on Teen Wolf. Are

694
00:34:20,679 --> 00:34:21,519
we ready for tidbits?

695
00:34:21,559 --> 00:34:22,440
Speaker 2: Let's do it all right.

696
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:28,000
Speaker 3: So, one of the mistakes that Jeff Loeb felt about

697
00:34:28,039 --> 00:34:30,639
Teen Wolf, he said, there's one mistake that I would

698
00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:32,639
totally change if I could. I don't know if you

699
00:34:32,679 --> 00:34:36,000
remember it, but they're at the bowling Alley and Mick,

700
00:34:36,159 --> 00:34:38,920
who's trying to bully Scott as the wolf, trying to

701
00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:42,840
make him mad. He mentions the fact that he basically

702
00:34:43,039 --> 00:34:48,840
murdered his mother. Yeah, he talked about how robbing the

703
00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:51,440
chicken check or whatever, and he's like, you know that

704
00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:52,320
was too much.

705
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:56,199
Speaker 2: Yeah. I guess probably when I was a kid, I thought, oh,

706
00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:58,679
that's really what happened to his mom. As a grown

707
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,159
up watching this, I thought, that's just something that he's

708
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:04,360
just saying just to goat him. He's I mean, he's

709
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:06,320
clearly going him. I mean, we know what happens with

710
00:35:06,679 --> 00:35:09,079
with wolf people they turned back into humans. He would

711
00:35:09,079 --> 00:35:12,599
have been guilty of murder. Also, how likely is it

712
00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:17,800
that a wolf man married a wolf woman? Now that's right? Yeah?

713
00:35:18,559 --> 00:35:21,079
Speaker 3: Uh so he still gets like people come up to

714
00:35:21,159 --> 00:35:23,639
and ask him, did Mick murder Scott's money?

715
00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:26,679
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, okay, all right.

716
00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:29,079
Speaker 3: There was also a cut scene from Teen Wolf I

717
00:35:29,119 --> 00:35:30,960
want to bring up to you, okay, and I think

718
00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:33,320
it could have changed the whole tone of the movie, right, right,

719
00:35:33,599 --> 00:35:37,320
So they had a dream sequence where Scott as the

720
00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:38,800
wolf appeared on Johnny Carson.

721
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:40,280
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, right. Yeah.

722
00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:44,320
Speaker 3: The problem with that is is that the director Rob Daniel. Yeah,

723
00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:46,440
he said, we can't take it out of the bubble,

724
00:35:46,599 --> 00:35:49,920
like this can't be bigger than life. All right, because

725
00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:52,400
everybody would be at the high school. I mean, it's

726
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:54,400
just it has to be. You have to have this

727
00:35:54,639 --> 00:35:57,559
at the school. It's a werewolf playing basketball and that's it.

728
00:35:57,679 --> 00:35:59,960
He can't go on Johnny Carson, No, that would be okay,

729
00:36:00,159 --> 00:36:00,880
Yeah I can.

730
00:36:01,199 --> 00:36:02,719
Speaker 2: I can see that this needs to be in its

731
00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:03,440
own world. Yeah.

732
00:36:03,559 --> 00:36:06,039
Speaker 3: Yes, I got another story for you, a tidbit from

733
00:36:06,679 --> 00:36:09,079
maybe a tid note. I can't decide if it's a

734
00:36:09,119 --> 00:36:09,880
tid note or tidbit.

735
00:36:10,039 --> 00:36:10,159
Speaker 2: Right.

736
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:16,519
Speaker 3: So Jerry Levine, of course is Styles. Yes, he's been

737
00:36:16,559 --> 00:36:18,880
around the world and people have recognized him as Styles.

738
00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:22,960
He was at the Whaling Wall in Jerusalem and somebody

739
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:27,239
came up to me, like, Styles, right, But here's the funny.

740
00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:31,079
Speaker 2: Jewish I don't know. Keep going, you're asking me questions.

741
00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:37,360
So what are Jewish? Don't dig on swine man? What

742
00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:42,159
about workshops? Bacon tastes good, workshops day is good? Anyway,

743
00:36:42,199 --> 00:36:42,760
go ahead. Sorry.

744
00:36:43,119 --> 00:36:45,559
Speaker 3: So he was at a billige old concert in the

745
00:36:45,599 --> 00:36:48,880
Hollywood Bowl, okay, and he's like, you know, I was there.

746
00:36:49,159 --> 00:36:51,239
I was just there to see a billage old concert.

747
00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:54,039
And he's like, I don't really know if they know

748
00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:57,360
Styles is in the house. Or not until all of

749
00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:00,280
a sudden, I realize Styles is in the house, right,

750
00:37:01,039 --> 00:37:04,920
So Billy Joel breaks out into a rendition of Surfing USA,

751
00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:08,760
and he's like, everybody around him starts going pointing at

752
00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:11,440
him like, oh my god. He's like and he realized

753
00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:14,280
everybody standing around him knew he was Styles, yes, and

754
00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:15,800
basically wanted him to.

755
00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:18,639
Speaker 2: Dance, to do the surf, to do the surf dance.

756
00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:23,840
Speaker 3: Oh wow, he said. He gave him a little something. Okay,

757
00:37:24,599 --> 00:37:29,159
gave him a little something, yeah, which is hilarious. And

758
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:31,519
then okay, so they filmed this, as we said in

759
00:37:31,599 --> 00:37:34,519
South Pasadena. Director Rod Daniel kind of came up with

760
00:37:34,559 --> 00:37:36,480
a wild idea like, no, we've got to move this

761
00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:39,519
to Nebraska. This is said in Nebraska. Okay, did you

762
00:37:39,519 --> 00:37:40,800
know it said in Nebraska. I did not know it

763
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:42,960
said in Nebraska. The only thing I could tell was

764
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:45,480
from Nebraska is there's a bumper sticker in the coach's

765
00:37:46,039 --> 00:37:49,519
office that said Husker Power. Okay, that's the only thing

766
00:37:49,559 --> 00:37:50,960
that really ties it to Nebraska.

767
00:37:51,159 --> 00:37:51,480
Speaker 2: All right.

768
00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:53,679
Speaker 3: So he's like, we got to move this whole thing

769
00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:55,519
in Nebraska, and they're like, no, we can just do

770
00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:58,719
Pasadena's right, here with you know, no, we got it,

771
00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:01,079
and so he finally they they were kind of fought

772
00:38:01,119 --> 00:38:03,239
him on it. He's like, well, let me go spend

773
00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:05,000
a week in Nebraska and see what we can do

774
00:38:05,079 --> 00:38:07,760
in Nebraska. Okay, so like, fine, go to Nebraska, go

775
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:10,639
check it out. If you really feel strong about it,

776
00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:13,599
let us know. So he went and, like the director

777
00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:16,320
like went to like high school parties and stuff, and

778
00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:19,079
so he's like checking out high school parties, right, Okay.

779
00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:21,039
When he comes back, he's like, fine, we don't have

780
00:38:21,079 --> 00:38:24,079
to go to Nebraska. And they're like, right, that's what

781
00:38:24,199 --> 00:38:24,719
we thought too.

782
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:25,000
Speaker 2: Yeah.

783
00:38:25,519 --> 00:38:27,480
Speaker 3: He's like, but I want to add some stuff to

784
00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:29,760
teen Wolf and they're like, what is it. He's like,

785
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:32,920
I went to this party and they played like two

786
00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:36,559
minutes in the closet, like no rules, and he's like

787
00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:38,960
they're like, yeah, okay, that's good. And he's like and

788
00:38:39,039 --> 00:38:41,159
they had this other game where you had to like

789
00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:44,800
you pour jello down somebody's shirt, and I was like,

790
00:38:45,199 --> 00:38:46,800
these kids in Nebraska, what are they doing?

791
00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:50,199
Speaker 2: Man? Well I got to wonder, like, how does a

792
00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:55,000
guy in his what probably early thirties maybe show up

793
00:38:55,039 --> 00:38:57,239
at a high school party and they're just cool with it,

794
00:38:57,480 --> 00:38:59,840
I know, right, Like, hey, watch us throw a jello

795
00:39:00,119 --> 00:39:02,400
this girl's shirt. You want to get in a closet

796
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:03,679
with this one of these high school girls?

797
00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:04,280
Speaker 5: What?

798
00:39:05,159 --> 00:39:08,760
Speaker 2: So that's weird. That's what he came back with from Nebraska. Wow? Okay,

799
00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:12,360
did he come back with a keg? I would a

800
00:39:12,599 --> 00:39:14,280
keg of beer? Yeah?

801
00:39:15,119 --> 00:39:17,800
Speaker 3: All right, I got two tidbits for you on Monster Squad. Okay,

Speaker 2: Interesting.

808
00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:34,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought that was kind of interesting.

monsters gotta get out of here. Of course he's not.

821
00:40:05,199 --> 00:40:08,719
He doesn't see the Mummy and all that stuff. That dude,

822
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:13,079
that actor is the guy at the beginning of Diehard

823
00:40:13,159 --> 00:40:16,199
who tells Bruce Willis that the best way to relax

824
00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:18,000
is to take off your shoes and socks and make

825
00:40:18,079 --> 00:40:18,960
fists with your toes.

826
00:40:20,079 --> 00:40:24,480
Speaker 2: Toes. Yes, wow, how about that? Nice? Yes? And it

827
00:40:24,639 --> 00:40:27,119
just occurs to me just as just because I love

828
00:40:27,199 --> 00:40:30,280
to tie these movies together. Mary Ellen Trainor is the

829
00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:33,079
mom in the Monster Squad. Yes. Mary Ellen Trainer, as

830
00:40:33,119 --> 00:40:35,360
we mentioned, was married to Robert Tamachas.

831
00:40:35,519 --> 00:40:35,679
Speaker 4: Yes.

832
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:39,559
Speaker 2: Robert Jamachis directed Back to the Future. Yes, which is

833
00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:43,199
the movie that made Teen Wolf a big movie. Absolutely?

834
00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:43,840
Speaker 3: How about that?

835
00:40:44,119 --> 00:40:46,159
Speaker 2: Okay, fascinating? Are we the final judgment?

836
00:40:46,199 --> 00:40:46,320
Speaker 4: Now?

837
00:40:46,679 --> 00:40:48,039
Speaker 3: I got one other story I want to tell you

838
00:40:48,079 --> 00:40:50,880
real quick, okay, before we get the final judgment. The

839
00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:55,719
reception of these movies was interesting night and day. Okay,

840
00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:59,639
at Teen Wolf, they showed like they screened the movie

841
00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:04,119
for a bunch of people in Hollywood. Okay, Well, as

842
00:41:04,199 --> 00:41:07,039
they're watching the movie. They get to the tenth reel.

843
00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:11,599
This is like the final basketball scene, okay, which on

844
00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:14,719
a side note, Michael J. Fox, you know, they had

845
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:18,280
set up all these basketball shots to make cinematic basketball,

846
00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:20,400
and he finally went to the director and he's like, look,

847
00:41:20,519 --> 00:41:23,119
just let us play. We're just gonna play basketball, and

848
00:41:23,199 --> 00:41:25,599
just film is playing basketball, and just get shots from that.

849
00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:32,440
After an hour of nobody coming near the bucket, he's like, guys,

850
00:41:32,599 --> 00:41:35,559
this is terrible. He's like, somewhere in the locker there

851
00:41:35,679 --> 00:41:38,840
is an hour worth of the worst basketball footage you've

852
00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:43,679
ever seen. But anyway, they get to the final scene,

853
00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:46,840
you know, with the basketball where Scott's playing and not

854
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:49,480
the wolf. And anyway, they realize the editor and the

855
00:41:49,559 --> 00:41:52,880
director are watching this with the crowd. They realize this

856
00:41:53,079 --> 00:41:55,159
is the wrong cut of the movie. This is the

857
00:41:55,239 --> 00:41:59,199
wrong reel. Okay, they're watching this. It's missing like the

858
00:41:59,679 --> 00:42:03,719
school the music, like the emotional music, right, and so

859
00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:06,039
they're like, what do we do it's missing the music.

860
00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:08,039
She's like, I don't know what should we do, and

861
00:42:08,079 --> 00:42:09,719
he's like, it's so important to have the score in

862
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:12,199
the final scene. We've got to have it. So they

863
00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:16,159
stop the screening and they say, look, everybody, sorry, we

864
00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:18,920
got a technical difficulty. We're gonna run right down the

865
00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:21,199
street and get the real will be right back. He

866
00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:27,119
was like, the fact that nobody left, right, nobody left

867
00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:29,960
tells me that people were on the hook for this

868
00:42:30,119 --> 00:42:32,519
movie because I knew we had a hit. At that moment,

869
00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:35,159
he said, Now, I was doing ninety miles an hour

870
00:42:35,519 --> 00:42:38,400
through gas stations and stuff to go four miles there,

871
00:42:38,519 --> 00:42:41,159
pick it up, come four miles back, right, he goes.

872
00:42:41,199 --> 00:42:43,480
When I got back, nobody had left, and I knew

873
00:42:43,519 --> 00:42:44,000
we had a hit.

874
00:42:44,679 --> 00:42:48,079
Speaker 2: This is this movie. I'm just gonna say it. But

875
00:42:48,239 --> 00:42:51,840
for Michael J. Fox, this movie fails hard, probably so hard.

876
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:54,519
And I will refer to you to one scene and

877
00:42:54,559 --> 00:42:56,800
we've already talked about it, and it is the scene

878
00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:59,960
where he is in he's just discovered he's the wolf.

879
00:43:00,639 --> 00:43:04,239
He's in the school. He realizes he's changing. It's like

880
00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:06,800
he's trying to do the math, and he's his claws

881
00:43:06,920 --> 00:43:09,079
come out and he's like, gott to escape, and he's

882
00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:13,199
running trying to find a bathroom to hide in and

883
00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:16,880
he runs down the hall. The janitor is like, that's

884
00:43:17,039 --> 00:43:21,119
what and you see him and I mean it's it's

885
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:25,559
like four seconds stuff slip slip, slip, slip slip slip slip,

886
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:31,079
does not fall. Cut scene too. You're looking at him

887
00:43:31,119 --> 00:43:33,840
from down the hall of this Huh he does fall

888
00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:37,280
but keep going right, but he stays up. But then

889
00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:40,000
like just at this last second and you just see

890
00:43:40,079 --> 00:43:44,320
him go whoosh. It is comedy. It's old Like, I

891
00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:46,760
don't know how physically he was able to keep his

892
00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:50,199
balance with all of that stuff fall at the perfect

893
00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:52,960
moment for the comedy and then also get the fall

894
00:43:53,159 --> 00:43:55,519
for when he slides by as you cut, as you

895
00:43:55,639 --> 00:44:00,159
take the second camera angle that and I'm just like,

896
00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:04,920
this guy is a genius. He's a genius. And what

897
00:44:05,119 --> 00:44:07,119
is I don't want to bring it down, but I

898
00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:10,360
just need to know this. What is tragic is what's

899
00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:13,679
happened to this poor guy's body. Since then, his wife,

900
00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:17,960
who he met on family ties. I almost said growing pains.

901
00:44:19,199 --> 00:44:21,400
His wife we'd met on family ties, has been by

902
00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:23,440
his side through all of this. But I mean, he

903
00:44:24,079 --> 00:44:28,119
found out he had Parkinson's in his late twenties. He

904
00:44:28,199 --> 00:44:31,320
had not even been like on fire, top of the world.

905
00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:35,760
Movie after hit after movie after than bigger than bubblegum

906
00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:38,320
as he says yes, and then all of a sudden,

907
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:41,480
all of his movies start to do badly, right, and

908
00:44:42,079 --> 00:44:45,920
they talk about how he's gotten too comfortable, and he's

909
00:44:46,199 --> 00:44:48,440
he was thinking, oh, you know, I've just got to

910
00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:50,039
where I don't have to ham it up now. This

911
00:44:50,199 --> 00:44:53,920
is Parkinson's given him the mask, and which is why

912
00:44:54,119 --> 00:44:57,360
a lot of what he did post finding out about

913
00:44:57,360 --> 00:44:59,679
the disease, but before it kind of took him out

914
00:44:59,679 --> 00:45:03,320
of the movie business, didn't do as well. But there's

915
00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:06,039
a documentary that you can watch on Apple TV right

916
00:45:06,079 --> 00:45:09,559
now called Still Watch It. It's incredible.

917
00:45:09,679 --> 00:45:12,480
Speaker 3: I'm excited to check it out. Yeah, all right, final judgment.

918
00:45:12,519 --> 00:45:14,960
Speaker 2: Here we are, Here we go. You go first? All right, Okay,

919
00:45:15,039 --> 00:45:15,480
So I'm.

920
00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:17,599
Speaker 3: Just gonna say like this, I mean, for me, I

921
00:45:17,639 --> 00:45:19,480
think it's real important to the age you were when

922
00:45:19,519 --> 00:45:20,320
you saw these movies.

923
00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:20,559
Speaker 4: Right.

924
00:45:20,719 --> 00:45:23,280
Speaker 3: So, I was twelve when I saw Teen Wolf, and

925
00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:26,159
Teen Wolf had everything I aspired to, Right. I wanted

926
00:45:26,199 --> 00:45:29,280
to be a basketball star. I wanted to be in

927
00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:31,960
the closet with the girl for two minutes, and I

928
00:45:32,079 --> 00:45:34,440
wanted to surf and be popular and be that guy

929
00:45:34,639 --> 00:45:39,079
right right, and muster Squad I was fourteen fifteen when

930
00:45:39,119 --> 00:45:42,559
I saw it, and those were little kids, and so

931
00:45:43,519 --> 00:45:46,159
I wasn't as interested in the little rascals at the time.

932
00:45:46,199 --> 00:45:48,800
I was more interested that summer in Beverly Hills Cop

933
00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:52,920
Part two right right, and Stake Out and Jaws The

934
00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:56,559
Revenge and stuff like that, and Predator. Yeah, I mean

935
00:45:59,199 --> 00:46:02,719
so when I first saw them, the movie that impacted

936
00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:05,639
me the most clearly was Teen Wolf, and it remains

937
00:46:05,679 --> 00:46:08,559
to this day. I do enjoy Monster Squad. I would

938
00:46:08,599 --> 00:46:10,679
even love to show it to my kids.

939
00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:10,920
Speaker 4: You know.

940
00:46:11,519 --> 00:46:13,559
Speaker 3: I think it's a great fun movie.

941
00:46:13,639 --> 00:46:14,159
Speaker 2: I loved the.

942
00:46:14,199 --> 00:46:16,760
Speaker 3: Universal monster movies, but for me, it's Teen Wolf all day,

943
00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:21,360
every day, mainly because Michael J. Fox is so unbelievably irresistible.

944
00:46:21,920 --> 00:46:22,199
That's it.

945
00:46:22,639 --> 00:46:27,760
Speaker 2: Yep. And before we rewatched these movies, I would have

946
00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:32,400
one said the same thing, like Michael J. Fox charisma

947
00:46:32,599 --> 00:46:35,000
is all over this thing. Even though he thought he

948
00:46:35,119 --> 00:46:38,199
was making a bad be movie, high school monster thing

949
00:46:38,320 --> 00:46:41,400
at the time. He absolutely makes this movie. He and

950
00:46:41,519 --> 00:46:44,679
the dad, no doubt, James Hampton does a great job.

951
00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:47,360
Absolutely make this movie. Loved it when I saw it

952
00:46:47,360 --> 00:46:49,840
in the theater. Loved that moment when he opens the

953
00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:54,440
door and James Hampton is wolfed out a very cuddly,

954
00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:57,360
ewakeee kind of he said.

955
00:46:57,440 --> 00:47:00,159
Speaker 3: When they screened that movie for the first time, he

956
00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:05,480
said that moment only happens every very very rarely.

957
00:47:06,119 --> 00:47:06,519
Speaker 2: He said.

958
00:47:06,559 --> 00:47:10,559
Speaker 3: The whole place died laughing. He just soaked that in

959
00:47:10,679 --> 00:47:12,920
and said that we've nailed it.

960
00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:16,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was very very well done, super funny. But

961
00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:21,400
upon the rewatch, I actually was genuinely impressed with Monster Squad.

962
00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:23,519
I had not seen it since I saw it in

963
00:47:23,559 --> 00:47:26,519
the theater. I might have seen it, like maybe at

964
00:47:26,519 --> 00:47:29,039
a friend's house one night, you know, at you know,

965
00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:32,000
whatever age I was, but you point out ages and

966
00:47:32,079 --> 00:47:37,159
that it's very important. When I was nine, when Teen

967
00:47:37,199 --> 00:47:40,519
Wolf came out, I loved it because I mean, even

968
00:47:40,559 --> 00:47:41,840
at nine, I still wanted to be with a girl

969
00:47:41,880 --> 00:47:44,400
in closet, but I also wanted to be a wolfman,

970
00:47:44,519 --> 00:47:49,360
right sure, And I loved the universal Monsters, and so

971
00:47:49,679 --> 00:47:52,440
I loved Monster Squad when I watched it. And going

972
00:47:52,559 --> 00:47:56,119
back and looking at at this movie, I don't know

973
00:47:56,360 --> 00:47:58,679
if it's just because it didn't make it at the

974
00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:01,960
time that I've got this I get this feeling, or

975
00:48:02,159 --> 00:48:06,800
just because it's really a very well written script like

976
00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:08,960
which makes sense now that we know, but this was

977
00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:11,400
I understand Shane Black when he says this is my

978
00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:15,599
best script. It's really well put together. Even at the opening,

979
00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:20,280
you know, the opening texts on the screen of about

980
00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:23,079
Van Helsing and how they tried to save the world

981
00:48:23,199 --> 00:48:26,559
and they blew it. I laughed out loud. And I

982
00:48:26,639 --> 00:48:28,360
haven't even seen one scene of the movie, you know,

983
00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:30,679
And so this is hard to say. It's a very

984
00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:33,440
close call. Any day. I could easily pick Teen Wolf.
