00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,560
Speaker 1: Hey, here's your favorite postal carrier, Lane Wolf from Westfield

00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:10,240
in a ferrari with your best friend and your girlfriend,

4
00:00:10,439 --> 00:00:13,400
going to a Cubs game, catching a foul ball while

5
00:00:13,519 --> 00:00:17,039
avoiding your principal while is that a pizza joint? Or

6
00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:20,320
fighting those babies and blues with a bunch of kids

7
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:24,679
while being chased by the motor City madmen. Hey, there's

8
00:00:24,719 --> 00:00:26,839
only one thing left to do in a time like this.

9
00:00:27,239 --> 00:00:30,120
Why don't you ask yourself what Lane Wolf would do?

10
00:00:30,559 --> 00:00:34,000
Who Lane Wolf? I would listen to James D. Graves

11
00:00:34,119 --> 00:01:04,959

00:01:07,079 --> 00:01:09,719

Speaker 3: Nobody gets out of here without plane the blues?

17
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 2: All right? We had to pick between two adventures and

18
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:33,120
babysitting lines that everybody knows, and so we took the

19
00:01:33,159 --> 00:01:36,439
one without the F bomb in it. We are back.

20
00:01:36,519 --> 00:01:39,959

of Ferris Bueller's Day Off and Adventures in Babysitting. We

22
00:01:43,079 --> 00:01:45,879
talked about quite a bit of trivia and some other

23
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:49,920
fun stuff, and we talked about casting for Ferris Bueller's

24
00:01:49,959 --> 00:01:52,799
Day Off. We're back here part two. We're going to

25
00:01:52,879 --> 00:01:59,040

Speaker 2: What a sweet casting choice that was.

29
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 3: I think every guy about our age had a crush

30
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,639
on Leah Thompson and Elizabeth Shoe.

31
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:26,719

00:02:30,039 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, or Jennifer Conley. There's a lot of them back,

You've got Back to the Future Leah Thompson, yep. And

36
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:46,280
you've got Karate Kid Elizabeth Shoe. Yeah. Those were monumental

37
00:02:46,319 --> 00:02:47,960
moments in my childhood.

38
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,439
Speaker 3: And then in nineteen eighty eight you have you have

39
00:02:51,479 --> 00:02:52,400
Elizabeth Shoe.

40
00:02:52,159 --> 00:02:54,759
Speaker 2: And Cocktail Back to the Future too. Yeah.

00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:56,919
Speaker 3: She she replaces Claudia Wells.

42
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,319
Speaker 2: Yeah in Back the Future two and three, and in

43
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:03,520
both movies she wakes up from being passed out and says,

44
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,680
I just had the worst nightmare hopefully.

45
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 3: Them how about that? You know what, there is another

46
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,319
Back to the Future alum in this cast as well.

47
00:03:12,759 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 2: Yes, in Adventures of Babysitter. Yeah tell me, well I will, Okay.

48
00:03:16,759 --> 00:03:20,120
Speaker 3: We'll get to it, all right, So Elizabeth Shoe plays

49
00:03:20,319 --> 00:03:29,599
Chris Parker. Don't with the Lord's Head, Don't with the Babysitter.

50
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,599
The list of who they wanted to play Chris Parker

51
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:37,439
in this movie is astounding. It's everybody. Basically, we talked

52
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:41,520
last week how they really had their mindset on Molly Ringwold.

53
00:03:42,159 --> 00:03:44,840
Mally Ringwold said no, So they shifted.

54
00:03:44,479 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 2: To Bette Midler and Share What what the what?

55
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:54,199
Speaker 5: That makes no sense?

56
00:03:54,719 --> 00:03:57,439
Speaker 2: I can say I could see in nineteen eighty six

57
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,240
any kid having the hots for share Bette Midler.

58
00:04:02,319 --> 00:04:05,879
Speaker 3: Bette Midler, Bette Midler what she was hot at the moment?

59
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 2: No, she was not.

60
00:04:07,439 --> 00:04:09,319
Speaker 3: So let me give you the list of other people

61
00:04:09,319 --> 00:04:11,159
they considered to play Chris Parker.

62
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,759
Speaker 4: We're talking ruthless people. Bet Miler, right, ruthless people.

63
00:04:15,039 --> 00:04:19,199
Speaker 3: Bette Midler, who was a bit chunky, Yeah, very annoying.

64
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,279
Speaker 2: And yes, Bette Midler has never been attractive a day

65
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:22,639
in her.

66
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:26,879
Speaker 3: Oh man, Okay, so let me give you the list

67
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,000
of possible Chris Parker's all.

68
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 2: Right, wait, wait, before you do this, each person that

69
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,720
you're gonna name, I'm gonna have to think could they

70
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:39,199
pull off miss March. I mean it's an important part, right,

71
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:40,759
It is a huge part of the movie.

72
00:04:40,879 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 4: Okay, Okayne Middler, definitely not.

73
00:04:45,879 --> 00:04:51,439
Speaker 3: True, all right? Nineteen eighty seven version, Julia Louise Dreyfus, Sure,

74
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:53,920
she was kind of a babe back then.

75
00:04:54,879 --> 00:04:56,079
Speaker 2: There's a babe in Seinfeld on the.

76
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 5: Nineties, she was a babe.

77
00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 3: Okay, brook Shields, Yes, Michelle Pfeiffer, I think they're kind

78
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,560
of reaching for the stars right there. I don't know

79
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,480
that you're gonna get land Michelle Pfeiffer.

80
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:08,959
Speaker 2: For this one. Well, I'm going to head you off

81
00:05:08,959 --> 00:05:11,319
at the pass here. But at the time, an unknown

82
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:16,240
Sharon Stone, Sharon Stone on the list, Okay, Kelly McGillis, Yeah,

83
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:17,800
she wanted it. She wanted it.

84
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:19,199
Speaker 3: They didn't want to, They were not interested.

85
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:19,759
Speaker 2: Surprised.

86
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 3: How about Valerie Burtonilly yep, yeah.

87
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 2: Oh, such a crush on her from one day at

88
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:26,319
a time. Oh my gosh.

89
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:28,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, let me give you one I don't think works.

90
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,839
Kathleen Turner babysitter.

91
00:05:31,639 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 2: Well, she is romancing the Stone Smidge old, but she

92
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:36,240
was still very attracted.

93
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 3: I mean she's very attractive.

94
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:40,439
Speaker 4: I'm not saying no, she's attractive, like shear is attractive.

95
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,079
I mean, they're they're, they're, they're they're fine. It's just

96
00:05:43,199 --> 00:05:46,600
they're It just seems like the demographic is a little older,

97
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:47,439
is all I'm saying.

98
00:05:47,519 --> 00:05:49,519
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, now that I'm thinking about it, you

99
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:53,759
have that entire scene with the frat party where he's like,

100
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,160
you're the prettiest girl at the University of Chicago and

101
00:05:56,199 --> 00:06:00,480
you're in high school. That that all falls apart right there. Yeah,

102
00:06:00,519 --> 00:06:03,279
you dropped in Kathleen Turner. There she goes from being

103
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,279
jail bait to be in cougar. She could be hit.

104
00:06:08,879 --> 00:06:11,279
Speaker 6: When they were like at least know with like Sharon

105
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:14,319
Att Middler, when they were thinking about that they were

106
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,079
going to rewrite the movie to make it maybe be

107
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,879
an older person. So when they were thinking maybe some

108
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,800
of these older people, they also had in their mind

109
00:06:23,879 --> 00:06:25,519
that the movie would go a different direction.

110
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,639
Speaker 3: Sure, I get it, all right. Melanie Griffith is another

111
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,360
name I have here. And then finally one that I

112
00:06:32,399 --> 00:06:37,720
think fits but doesn't quite fit the Playboy aspect of it,

113
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:42,519
is Tulsa's own Heather lang Camp Oh from Night nyn

114
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:43,040
Elm Street.

115
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe you might be able to dress her.

116
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:48,120
Speaker 3: Up Nancy from nightmn Elm Street.

117
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,639
Speaker 2: It might be. Okay, she's not, she's not better look

118
00:06:50,639 --> 00:06:53,240
at it, and she's she kind of hides her figure

119
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,000
a little bit in that movie. I think she's better look.

120
00:06:56,079 --> 00:06:58,519
Speaker 3: All right, Heather balled in your court, let's do this.

121
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 2: Yeah.

122
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:04,600
Speaker 3: So Elizabeth Shu in this movie actually did like a

123
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:06,560
photo shoot at the Playboy mansion.

124
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 2: It flew her out there well yes not nudes, yes,

125
00:07:09,399 --> 00:07:13,160
no nudes, but yes, and she when she talked about it,

126
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:14,600
she was like, I think it might have been a

127
00:07:14,639 --> 00:07:16,759
Hugh he Haffner thing. That was like, if you're going to

128
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:19,319
use the name Playboy, you have to kind of have

129
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:20,160
to shoot it out here.

130
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:24,879
Speaker 3: That prop magazine only one was made or one still exists,

131
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:25,680
and she has it.

132
00:07:25,839 --> 00:07:27,839
Speaker 4: Yep, does it have the writing of the plans that

133
00:07:27,879 --> 00:07:31,680
they were after. That makes no sense, man, that makes

134
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:34,759
no sense. I mean that happens to me every time

135
00:07:34,839 --> 00:07:37,519
I'm in a meeting I'm looking for something to write

136
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,439
on and the only thing that's there is my Gentleman's

137
00:07:40,519 --> 00:07:42,000
quarterly or whatever.

138
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:46,199
Speaker 6: And I'm having your mechanics.

139
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:49,839
Speaker 3: He wrote it on the centerfold too, I mean, can

140
00:07:49,879 --> 00:07:51,639
you not do it on the joke page on the

141
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:52,560
next one or two?

142
00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 2: Over runned it?

143
00:07:53,839 --> 00:07:55,839
Speaker 4: Yeah, I didn't want to ruin the articles.

144
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:57,519
Speaker 2: Yes, that's why he reads it.

145
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,279
Speaker 3: So, I mean, I know we've said it before, but

146
00:08:00,319 --> 00:08:03,720
Elizabeth Shoe, she does a great job. She's believable as

147
00:08:04,199 --> 00:08:07,639
the kind of the frumpy version of the high school

148
00:08:07,639 --> 00:08:10,519
student who can still manage to be the centerfold in

149
00:08:10,519 --> 00:08:13,920
the Playboy magazine. Right, she's wearing those ridiculous gloves throughout

150
00:08:13,959 --> 00:08:14,680
the entire movie.

151
00:08:15,079 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 2: But you know, she is a smoke show if she

152
00:08:17,879 --> 00:08:18,279
wanted to be.

153
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,959
Speaker 4: Yeah, our question, have you guys ever told the Elizabeth

154
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:25,040
Shoe cocktail story with Tom Cruise?

155
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 2: No?

156
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:28,879
Speaker 4: Okay, so this is actually one of the stories that

157
00:08:28,959 --> 00:08:32,639
I could have sworn you guys have told before. But

158
00:08:32,879 --> 00:08:36,000
when they were shooting Cocktail, right, there was a scene

159
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:37,960
I think maybe they were out riding horses or something,

160
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,720
But anyways, a lot of helicopters that was shooting the

161
00:08:40,799 --> 00:08:44,360
actual scene and they would come down in between takes,

162
00:08:44,519 --> 00:08:47,399
they would look at they'd go over what the video

163
00:08:47,519 --> 00:08:50,360
playback of what was just shot, and the director would

164
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,480
give them more directions for what to do on the

165
00:08:53,519 --> 00:08:56,159
next take. On it something about a helicopter. They're going

166
00:08:56,240 --> 00:09:00,440
to leave the helicopter basically running with the backblades going.

167
00:09:00,519 --> 00:09:04,960
When the rear rotor is spinning, it's invisible. Elizabeth Shoe

168
00:09:05,159 --> 00:09:08,120
turns around and starts walking towards the back of the helicopter.

169
00:09:08,399 --> 00:09:11,759
She's almost close to get her whole face just taken

170
00:09:11,879 --> 00:09:16,840
right off. Cruise, you know, being a pilot himself, just

171
00:09:17,519 --> 00:09:21,200
jumped right after her tackled her. She's ticked off at

172
00:09:21,279 --> 00:09:25,399
him for just attacking her before he shows her that

173
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,720
she was just about to walk into the blades of

174
00:09:28,799 --> 00:09:32,000
the helicopter in the on the rotor. So Tom Cruise

175
00:09:32,159 --> 00:09:36,320
saved Elizabeth's shoes life in Cocktail, I thought y'all had

176
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:37,039
told that story.

177
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,519
Speaker 2: Wow, but that's a great one. That sounds like something

178
00:09:39,519 --> 00:09:42,440
we would tell, But I don't. I haven't told that story.

179
00:09:42,919 --> 00:09:43,960
That's a great one, you know.

180
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,799
Speaker 3: That brings me to another Elizabeth Shoe story, Chuck. I mean,

181
00:09:46,799 --> 00:09:48,679
it's a great one. But she had an older brother

182
00:09:48,799 --> 00:09:52,320
named William. She actually named her I think her firstborn

183
00:09:52,399 --> 00:09:53,759
son after her older brother.

184
00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:54,799
Speaker 2: Cameo in this movie.

185
00:09:55,159 --> 00:09:57,840
Speaker 3: Andrew Shoe gets a cameo in this movie. Oh okay,

186
00:09:57,919 --> 00:10:02,440
Andrew She who is popular on was it Melrose Place?

187
00:10:03,279 --> 00:10:05,840
So he's an actor, very famous. But they had an

188
00:10:05,879 --> 00:10:09,600
older brother, oh okay, who was killed in like the

189
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,600
summer that cocktail came out. I think it may have

190
00:10:11,639 --> 00:10:14,440
been like August or September. They were on a family

191
00:10:14,519 --> 00:10:18,159
vacation and just think about a million of these moments

192
00:10:18,159 --> 00:10:20,679
when you've been on a family vacation. He was on

193
00:10:20,759 --> 00:10:24,360
a tire rope swing. He was twenty six, so I

194
00:10:24,399 --> 00:10:27,240
mean old enough, and he swung out and when he

195
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:31,519
swung out, the branch broke and he fell on another

196
00:10:31,639 --> 00:10:36,039
branch and impaled himself and was killed. Oh, just an

197
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,919
absolute freak accident and died. And so she named her

198
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:41,799
oldest son after him.

199
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:42,879
Speaker 2: What a tragedy. Yep.

200
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:45,799
Speaker 3: Anything else on Elizabeth Shoe other than the fact she

201
00:10:45,919 --> 00:10:48,279
was the Burger King girl along with Leah Thompson.

202
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:49,240
Speaker 2: There you go.

203
00:10:49,399 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 3: Okay, Let's move on to Keith Coogan. He plays Brad.

204
00:10:52,639 --> 00:10:55,320
Speaker 2: Could you drop us off to the nearest mall a ball.

205
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 5: What do y'all think? We got boise Adaho shit.

206
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:04,360
Speaker 2: So, Keith Coogan is the grandson of Jackie Cougan. And

207
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:07,039
if you were a film buff, you know that he

208
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:11,600
was the kid in Charlie Chaplin's The Kid, a tiny

209
00:11:11,639 --> 00:11:15,120
little kid in a silent movie. And then when he

210
00:11:15,159 --> 00:11:18,519
grew up and became an older man, he was Uncle

211
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:23,200
Fester on the original Adams Family series. That is Keith

212
00:11:23,279 --> 00:11:27,960
Cougan's grandfather. Keith Coogan went by Keith Mitchell until just

213
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:31,759
after his Jackie Cougan's funeral, And when you know the

214
00:11:31,879 --> 00:11:35,039
news of Jackie Cougan passing and Keith Mitchell giving the

215
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:38,759
eulogy was everybody's confused about it. Then he changed his name,

216
00:11:38,879 --> 00:11:43,080
his acting name, to Keith Coogan. He's also going to

217
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:44,919
be in another movie and a couple of years after this,

218
00:11:45,159 --> 00:11:49,120
called The Babysitters Don't Tell Mom the Babysitters Dead. Two

219
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:53,120
big movies for this guy, and both of them involve babysitters.

220
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:56,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's one line from Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's

221
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:57,440
Dead that I remember.

222
00:11:57,639 --> 00:11:58,519
Speaker 2: You know what I'm talking about.

223
00:11:58,879 --> 00:12:04,600
Speaker 3: No dishes are done, man, that's Keith Coogan.

224
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:05,200
Speaker 2: There you go.

225
00:12:05,759 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 3: This a done man, Queen da By the way, I

226
00:12:10,279 --> 00:12:13,120
believe the movie is called Toy Soldiers came out a

227
00:12:13,159 --> 00:12:16,080
couple of years after this. Seawan Aston was in it

228
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:19,039
with him and so so. Seawan Aston and Keith Cougan

229
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:22,320
were teenagers at this school that's taken over by terrorist.

230
00:12:22,399 --> 00:12:25,639
It's kind of a red Dawn at a private school thing.

231
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:30,279
Shawn Asten's dad played Gomez Adams and Keith Coogan's granddad

232
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:31,440
played Uncle Fester.

233
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:35,440
Speaker 2: His alleged dad. But if you listen to episode you

234
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:37,799
will find out that that's not who his real dad was.

235
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:41,399
That's right. Maybe at the time Pattie Duke getting at home.

236
00:12:43,519 --> 00:12:50,720
Speaker 3: Okay, let's talk about Penelope and Miller. This is her debut. Hello,

237
00:12:51,159 --> 00:13:02,720
Oh yeah, sure, Chris Christ's Brenda, Chris Chris, I'm in trouble, Hendy,

00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:03,759
You're always in trouble.

239
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:05,279
Speaker 5: No, I'm really in trouble.

240
00:13:05,639 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 1: I didn't you spiked r Tad with Dreno.

241
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 7: No, I ran away from home.

242
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 3: Here's what I have on Penelope Ann Miller. She was

243
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,440
married to Will Arnette. Okay, right, yeah, you guys know

244
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,080
who Will Arnett is. H absolutely famous funny guy.

245
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:23,679
Speaker 2: He's. If you don't know who he is, he's He's

246
00:13:23,799 --> 00:13:26,159
very frequently in funny movies. He's also the voice of

247
00:13:26,759 --> 00:13:29,519
Batman in the Lego Batman movie. Yeah.

248
00:13:29,639 --> 00:13:30,320
Speaker 3: Great actor.

249
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:34,879
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, a ton of stuff arrested development, right, that's right.

250
00:13:35,039 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 3: Okay, listen to this. They were They got married December

251
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:42,559
ninth of nineteen ninety four, and they divorced on January

252
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,399
the eighteenth, nineteen ninety five.

253
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:49,000
Speaker 2: It's a quick turn around, basically.

254
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:52,799
Speaker 3: That's uh. That was my college break that year. They

255
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:56,080
were married for about three weeks or four weeks or whatever.

256
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:58,000
Speaker 2: That time period is next to nothing.

257
00:13:58,159 --> 00:13:59,519
Speaker 5: I took longer to plan the wedding.

258
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know what happened. I really wanted to

259
00:14:02,399 --> 00:14:05,000
find out, couldn't find out anything. But at last they

260
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:10,039
did not make it. She actually played the love interest

261
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:15,879
for Arnold Schwarzenegger in Kindergarten Cop. Yes, remember that she's

262
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:20,279
a dominic's mother, so Kindergarten Cop.

263
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,679
Speaker 2: Yeah. I heard of this movie before. No, I'm just

264
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:26,799
I can't put together that that's the same person.

265
00:14:26,639 --> 00:14:30,200
Speaker 3: The goofy glasses Brenda who thinks that there's a cat

266
00:14:30,279 --> 00:14:31,120
and it's a rat.

267
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 2: She ended up getting kind of hot.

268
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 3: She did get kind of hot.

269
00:14:34,039 --> 00:14:34,399
Speaker 2: Wow.

270
00:14:34,759 --> 00:14:37,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, well they dressed her down in this movie.

271
00:14:37,759 --> 00:14:39,159
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, a lot.

272
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 3: Okay, Chuck, I'm gonna pass this one to you. But

273
00:14:41,279 --> 00:14:44,279
Anthony Rapp is the guy who plays Darryl, their buddy.

274
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,840
Speaker 4: I think Anthony rap in this movie basically plays Corey

275
00:14:47,879 --> 00:14:51,879
Feldman's character from the Goonies. He's the mouth you know

276
00:14:52,039 --> 00:14:56,120
in this film. And he's also another one of our

277
00:14:56,200 --> 00:15:00,600
Star Trek references here. He plays in The Star Trek

278
00:15:00,679 --> 00:15:04,320
Discovery as Paul Stammets, who is the engineer who's able

279
00:15:04,399 --> 00:15:09,679
to power the drive of the starship Discovery in that show.

280
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:15,039
He also played in the play Rent, and he rejoined

281
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:18,440
up with Chris Columbus later in the film version, where

282
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:20,759
he reprised the role that he played on Broadway.

283
00:15:20,919 --> 00:15:24,919
Speaker 2: He was also in the movie Dazed and Confused. He

284
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:28,480
played the other of the two goofy characters that you

285
00:15:28,519 --> 00:15:31,440
will remember as the guy who describes his dream of

286
00:15:31,639 --> 00:15:34,960
having sex with the perfect female body, and then looking

287
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:40,399
up and she has the head of Abraham Lincoln, which

288
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:45,600
I think was a nod to this will be a

289
00:15:45,879 --> 00:15:49,799
future homosexual person. He did up, of course, being that

290
00:15:49,879 --> 00:15:52,879
in real life and Also, as it turns out, in

291
00:15:52,919 --> 00:15:58,320
those escapades acting as a young man, he was apparently

292
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:03,080
involved with Kevin Spacey and something because interesting, as we

293
00:16:03,159 --> 00:16:08,919
all know, Kevin Spacey got canceled basically for some sexual

294
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:13,039
actions that he had allegedly taken place many years earlier

295
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:17,240
with a young actor. Well, that young actor was Anthony Rap.

296
00:16:17,519 --> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 5: Interesting.

297
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 2: Wow, I didn't know that.

298
00:16:19,159 --> 00:16:23,320
Speaker 3: There you go, on that note, on that super fun note,

299
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,360
I will say that Anthony Rap in this movie has

300
00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:29,320
maybe the second or third funniest.

301
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:29,960
Speaker 2: Line in the whole movie.

302
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,799
Speaker 3: And that is and that is I think they're trying

303
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,120
to They're trying to get away from the bad guys.

304
00:16:36,039 --> 00:16:38,639
And I think Chris says, we're gonna walk across this

305
00:16:38,679 --> 00:16:41,279
We're gonna crawl up the shoot, We're gonna walk across

306
00:16:41,279 --> 00:16:42,759
this girder and crawl out a window.

307
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,320
Speaker 2: And he says, you gotta.

308
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:48,480
Speaker 6: Be watch your mouth, watch my mouth.

309
00:16:50,159 --> 00:16:53,559
Speaker 2: Yeah. Now, guys, if you're gonna watch this right now,

310
00:16:53,559 --> 00:16:56,200
you're probably gonna see it streaming on Disney, and what

311
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:57,679
you're gonna hear instead of that.

312
00:16:59,159 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 5: The other day?

313
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,399
Speaker 2: Watch your mouth? Are you kidding me?

314
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 3: Yeah?

315
00:17:03,159 --> 00:17:05,359
Speaker 2: That makes sense, right? I thought you were gonna say

316
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:11,680
The funny line was you will be murdered, dead, stabbed,

317
00:17:11,839 --> 00:17:12,960
and he goes raped.

318
00:17:15,839 --> 00:17:19,359
Speaker 4: I just always remember wrapping this movie in his entrance

319
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:24,200
where his mouth is against the window and he makes

320
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,400
it a big banana mouth. It was hilarious.

321
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:31,160
Speaker 2: He was blonde, naturally, they dyed his hair red because

322
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:32,720
they were worried that he was going to look too

323
00:17:32,839 --> 00:17:35,400
much like Anthony Michael Hall. How about that. I can

324
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:37,920
see that. Actually, yep. I don't know why you wouldn't

325
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:40,079
want to look like Anthony Michael Hall, given the success

326
00:17:40,079 --> 00:17:41,599
of all of the movies and the fact that they're

327
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:45,960
trying to recreate a version of Varios Bueller's Day Off.

328
00:17:46,039 --> 00:17:48,799
But whatever, you know, we probably need to review that.

329
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:52,400
Speaker 3: Just briefly, David Simpkins read the script for Veris Bueller's

330
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:53,960
Day Off and set out to.

331
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:55,200
Speaker 2: Make a movie like it.

332
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, and gave us adventures Baby City.

333
00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:01,160
Speaker 4: I would also probably go one step further. I don't

334
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:04,400
know how much of what Simpkins's original script is actually

335
00:18:04,599 --> 00:18:07,119
in the movie, because I think Chris Columbus, I know,

336
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:09,480
he brought his original idea of bringing in you know,

337
00:18:09,519 --> 00:18:11,119
no one gets out of here without singing the blues

338
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,400
in that whole scene. I'm gonna be very honest, I

339
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:16,119
find this movie to be more like the Goonies than

340
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:19,759
I do Ferris Bueller's Day Off, just in the story structure,

341
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,480
and we can talk about that when we get out

342
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:26,400
of it. But I think Chris Columbus's foot fingerprints are

343
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:31,680
over more of this script than what we normally think

344
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:33,960
of with it. But that's a little something I can

345
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:34,720
get into later.

346
00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:36,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, you got a group of kids who

347
00:18:36,759 --> 00:18:40,200
are trying to escape some criminals who are out to

348
00:18:40,279 --> 00:18:43,960
kill them, which is not a very common theme but

349
00:18:44,079 --> 00:18:47,240
definitely involved in both of those movies. Yeah, for sure.

350
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:47,920
I guess see.

351
00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:49,640
Speaker 5: That with some babysitting.

352
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:53,119
Speaker 6: In the comparison with Farispueler, a lot of it is

353
00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:56,720
the luck, the fact that things just kind of work out.

354
00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:01,720
Speaker 5: That's a commonality. And in Chicago, yeah, from a storyline.

355
00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 4: And they they but they and they filmed it all

356
00:19:04,039 --> 00:19:06,880
in Toronto, right, So it was it was, it was

357
00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:09,599
not even filmed in Chicago. And I would even go further.

358
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,640
You could you could say that the character of Joe Gibb,

359
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:16,400
even the truck driver, handsome John Pruitt, and uh uh oh,

360
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:19,319
there was one more guy there, Oh Dawson, Right, all

361
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:22,039
of these guys are kind of a prototype Sloth, right,

362
00:19:22,079 --> 00:19:24,559
where Sloth these are. These are bad guys who are

363
00:19:24,599 --> 00:19:28,400
actually good guys that help them along the criminals. They

364
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,319
seem to be very competent, but by the end they're

365
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:33,680
not competent. Wait a minute, I'm starting to I'm starting

366
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:36,559
to describe a movie called Home Alone two where you

367
00:19:36,599 --> 00:19:39,480
have the Wet bandits, right, So, so there's a lot

368
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,640
of connective tissue from just from Chris Columbus between these

369
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:46,400
two where I just think that David Simpkins script, you know,

370
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:49,839
I think it morphed during shooting because it feels too

371
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,039
much like Chris Columbus.

372
00:19:52,039 --> 00:19:52,519
Speaker 2: Interesting.

373
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:55,799
Speaker 3: That is interesting because when I watched it, Chuck and

374
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,839
and now I'm seeing what you're saying, and we're starting

375
00:19:58,839 --> 00:20:01,440
to break down the movie now. But to me, the

376
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:04,799
opening scene of Adventures of Babysitting where she is lip

377
00:20:04,839 --> 00:20:07,480
syncing and then he kissed me, which is a great

378
00:20:07,519 --> 00:20:10,559
needle drop, but it's essentially the twist and shout scene

379
00:20:10,599 --> 00:20:12,559
from Ferris Bueler. They just moved it to the beginning

380
00:20:12,559 --> 00:20:14,640
of the movie, so you get the parade scene and

381
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:17,839
right off the bat essentially, and then the very last

382
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:22,640
ten minutes of Adventures in Babysitting are exactly like Ferris

383
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:23,279
Bueler's Day.

384
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:27,400
Speaker 6: Off, even which he throws herself into the couch that

385
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:28,839
parents come right around the corner.

386
00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:31,680
Speaker 3: Yep, yep, it's absolutely the same. The only thing she

387
00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:33,799
doesn't do is throw baseball at the stereo to turn off.

388
00:20:36,079 --> 00:20:36,400
Speaker 2: Okay.

389
00:20:36,599 --> 00:20:40,680
Speaker 3: Bradley Whitford plays Mike, the boyfriend Bradley Whitford who would

390
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,079
go on to be in Billy Madison and the West

391
00:20:43,079 --> 00:20:45,720
Wing and do one hundred other things. To me, it's crazy.

392
00:20:45,759 --> 00:20:47,759
You know he studied at Juilliard and then ends up

393
00:20:47,799 --> 00:20:48,559
in Billy Madison.

394
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:53,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, yeah, West Wing. I just watched a movie

395
00:20:53,559 --> 00:20:56,599
called Cabin in the Woods. Have you guys seen that? Yeah?

396
00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,559
I had never seen it before. He's got a very

397
00:20:59,599 --> 00:21:03,519
interesting part in there. It's a weird kind of horror movie.

398
00:21:04,039 --> 00:21:06,839
And for those folks out there who don't watch many

399
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,400
modern movies, which maybe a lot of you, considering you're

400
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:12,000
listening to our podcast right now, it's a good movie.

401
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,640
It's got Chris Simsworth in it, and it does kind

402
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:17,599
of a weird play on the horror movie, kind of

403
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:21,839
like a scream esque, where like, hey, here's what happens

404
00:21:21,839 --> 00:21:24,119
in the horror movies and you follow along with it.

405
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,319
So I'm gonna recommend that movie. Just watch it for

406
00:21:26,319 --> 00:21:28,799
the first time, enjoyed it watching with Kevin Davis. Actually,

407
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:30,359
oh cool, Yeah, it's up, Kim.

408
00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 3: Okay, anything else when you say, I'm Bradley Whitford other

409
00:21:33,039 --> 00:21:36,039
than he drove his own car and the so cool

410
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:38,720
vanity plate was his. Yeah, and the fact that he

411
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,119
looked forty dating a seventeen year.

412
00:21:41,039 --> 00:21:43,759
Speaker 2: Old, well, nope, but then they went ahead and dated

413
00:21:43,759 --> 00:21:46,920
her anyway, they did.

414
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:47,559
Speaker 3: They did dating.

415
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:48,480
Speaker 2: Yes.

416
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:51,440
Speaker 3: By the way, I don't have in my notes who

417
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:54,039
the girl that he ended up at the French restaurant

418
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:54,960
was with.

419
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:56,279
Speaker 2: But she was a sleeze.

420
00:21:56,720 --> 00:22:01,279
Speaker 3: She was a sleeze and comparatively to Elizabeth Shoe, not

421
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:02,519
even in the same.

422
00:22:02,559 --> 00:22:03,880
Speaker 2: But what are you happen to do? How were you

423
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:04,759
going to find somebody?

424
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:09,480
Speaker 3: Well, and we know she puts out, so it's a

425
00:22:09,559 --> 00:22:10,599
balancing right.

426
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 2: All right.

427
00:22:11,079 --> 00:22:16,359
Speaker 3: Let's talk about Vincent Dinofrio as Thor with the ridiculously

428
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:20,160
long blonde wig. We talked about it last episode, Chuck,

429
00:22:20,319 --> 00:22:22,440
but he was muscled up right before he put on

430
00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:23,559
seventy pounds.

431
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:26,680
Speaker 4: To be in full mental jacket technically, not the first

432
00:22:26,759 --> 00:22:29,519
appearance of Thor on screen. That would come the following

433
00:22:29,559 --> 00:22:32,599
year on the TV show, The Return of the Incredible Hulk.

434
00:22:32,599 --> 00:22:34,680
I don't know if you remember that one with luf Riigno,

435
00:22:34,839 --> 00:22:35,559
Bill Bixby.

436
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:36,200
Speaker 2: Wow.

437
00:22:36,519 --> 00:22:40,160
Speaker 4: So they had a series where they had introduced Thor

438
00:22:40,559 --> 00:22:43,119
in eighty eight, so this is like nearly this is

439
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:46,759
probably a good eight years after the show had actually

440
00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:50,359
ended on there. But I know a lot of folks

441
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:55,440
who say that Dinafrio's Thor is more of the real

442
00:22:55,759 --> 00:23:00,079
Thour than the one on the TV show. So I

443
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:03,759
think there's no doubt about it that if if the

444
00:23:03,799 --> 00:23:06,480
little Girl believes that he's Store, then he'store.

445
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,359
Speaker 5: A chuck, I got a chuck.

446
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 6: I got a trivia question for you, though, Who originally

447
00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:15,480
was supposed to be the superhero instead of Thor?

448
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:17,440
Speaker 5: What was originally in the script?

449
00:23:18,519 --> 00:23:19,240
Speaker 2: Uh?

450
00:23:19,319 --> 00:23:22,160
Speaker 4: I'm going to go for a guess because for some reason,

451
00:23:22,279 --> 00:23:24,960
I'm thinking either Daredevil or Captain America.

452
00:23:25,319 --> 00:23:30,079
Speaker 5: Okay, Jason spider Man, d No Club he Man?

453
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:31,240
Speaker 6: Wow?

454
00:23:32,519 --> 00:23:34,440
Speaker 3: Oh that works.

455
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:35,440
Speaker 4: Wow?

456
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:38,799
Speaker 6: And because think about the mid eighties, he Man is

457
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:42,519
huge in fact, there was even a movie. It probably

458
00:23:42,519 --> 00:23:45,359
worked out best, did it the way I did, because

459
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:47,960
that became afterwards and it wasn't great and all that.

460
00:23:48,039 --> 00:23:50,119
Speaker 5: But like he man, it was huge at the time.

461
00:23:50,319 --> 00:23:53,640
Speaker 6: Nowadays Thor is huge, but in the mid eighties it

462
00:23:53,839 --> 00:23:56,799
really really wasn't except for you know, people that are

463
00:23:56,799 --> 00:23:59,759
really into comic books. And so Chris changed it for

464
00:23:59,839 --> 00:24:04,480
a very specific reason, just because he liked Threre better.

465
00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:09,599
Speaker 4: Yeah, Chris Columbus was a very he loved comic books

466
00:24:09,599 --> 00:24:11,920
and he had he had comic books all the time.

467
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:16,319
In fact, he changed you know, the character to Thor

468
00:24:16,599 --> 00:24:19,960
in very much the same way that another character in

469
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,599
an earlier film opened up his shirt, but it was

470
00:24:22,599 --> 00:24:26,920
a DC character with a Superman sloth from the Goonies.

471
00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:28,839
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, there you go, there you go.

472
00:24:29,279 --> 00:24:33,160
Speaker 4: That was Donner who directed itself. But still I heard.

473
00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:34,880
Speaker 3: That they were going to put some members of the

474
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:37,200
Chicago Bears, maybe like she was going to be a

475
00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:40,480
Big Bears fan, which man at that time to have

476
00:24:41,279 --> 00:24:45,400
Walter Payton or a BigMan or Mike Singletary or the

477
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,240
fridge like William the Refrigerator Perry.

478
00:24:47,519 --> 00:24:50,960
Speaker 2: They were. Anthony Rapp's character was going to steal their jockstraps,

479
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,480
and they're going to sell the jockstraps to make the

480
00:24:53,559 --> 00:24:55,960
money to pay for the car. That was the that

481
00:24:56,039 --> 00:24:56,759
was the plot.

482
00:24:56,519 --> 00:24:59,920
Speaker 3: Line, and they they decided against it because you never

483
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:02,519
know who was going to get in trouble for cocaine

484
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:05,880
or for you know, getting in trouble with whatever whatever.

485
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:10,519
But looking back, if you had had had Mike Singletary

486
00:25:11,519 --> 00:25:15,119
or Jim McMahon or Willie Galt or Walter Payton or

487
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:17,400
any of those guys, that really would have been a

488
00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:19,160
cool Chicago stamp on this movie.

489
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:20,440
Speaker 2: Very iconic. Yep.

490
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:22,920
Speaker 3: Okay, by the way, Chuck, you mentioned the little girl.

491
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:24,240
Her name is Maya Brutin.

492
00:25:24,599 --> 00:25:29,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, I remember her as another little girl in another

493
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:33,039
movie where she played I think her name was Sally.

494
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:34,880
Speaker 3: Baines, Elly Baines.

495
00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:35,359
Speaker 2: That's right.

496
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:40,000
Speaker 4: That was the younger sister of Lorraine Baines. Who wait, man,

497
00:25:40,079 --> 00:25:42,079
we're talking back to the future again. This is your

498
00:25:42,079 --> 00:25:46,079
second back to the future rat. Okay, Okay, there we go.

499
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:50,759
Speaker 6: I will see your situation and raise you a situation.

500
00:25:52,519 --> 00:25:57,400
What TV show was she in after this movie? That

501
00:25:57,519 --> 00:25:59,599
is kind of a kind of a comparison to.

502
00:25:59,559 --> 00:26:02,119
Speaker 2: Paris Parker Lewis Cantle.

503
00:26:02,319 --> 00:26:04,200
Speaker 5: It is she's the younger sister.

504
00:26:04,519 --> 00:26:05,039
Speaker 7: Wow.

505
00:26:06,039 --> 00:26:09,799
Speaker 4: Not the Ferris Bueller TV show, right, not not the

506
00:26:09,799 --> 00:26:14,079
Ferris Bueller TV show. But yeah, Parker Lewis Okay.

507
00:26:14,799 --> 00:26:15,000
Speaker 2: Two.

508
00:26:15,079 --> 00:26:17,039
Speaker 3: Yes, was Jennifer Anston in that.

509
00:26:17,279 --> 00:26:19,359
Speaker 2: Now she was in the Ferris Bueller one. She played

510
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:24,200
Jennifer Gray's part. That was Friends. Jennifer Grace character marries

511
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:29,319
the guy the dentist that Jennifer Andison's character is supposed

512
00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,680
to be marrying. That she walks out in the pilot episode.

513
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,880
She comes in the wedding dress. It's all these connections. Wow,

514
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:36,079
here can I.

515
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,400
Speaker 4: Can I just shout out that the children of the

516
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:42,119
eighties gang. Yeah, Jim and lindsay, please please go back

517
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:45,680

518
00:26:45,759 --> 00:26:49,000
was rewatching Friends because of your podcast and and I

519
00:26:49,079 --> 00:26:52,480
ended up stopping because because it didn't come back and

520
00:26:52,599 --> 00:26:53,240
I missed that.

521
00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:53,960
Speaker 2: So please.

522
00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:56,839
Speaker 3: Jim said something about work or when or whatever some

523
00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:59,599
dumb craft like that life.

524
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:00,759
Speaker 2: Okay.

525
00:27:00,839 --> 00:27:03,440
Speaker 3: I do want to bring up mister Albert Collins, who

526
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:06,480
is actually a blues musician, who is the guy who's

527
00:27:06,519 --> 00:27:08,759
like nobody get out of here about playing blues.

528
00:27:08,519 --> 00:27:09,160
Speaker 5: If you don't mind.

529
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:10,279
Speaker 3: We just like to let ourselves out.

530
00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:12,680
Speaker 5: Nobody is just played for that sing in the blue?

531
00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:17,319
Speaker 2: What nobody leave his place for that sang in the blue?

532
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:19,079
Speaker 3: Actually famous blues musician.

533
00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:22,480
Speaker 6: And the hard part about him actually being on camera

534
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:27,640
is that that whole thing was pre recorded. And yeah,

535
00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:31,119
and so they they went into a studio and they

536
00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:34,519
pre recorded all the vocals, the band, everything, and then

537
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,279
they had to shoot it. And he's up there and

538
00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:41,279
you know, you know him especially, but musicians in general,

539
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:44,839
they don't do the same thing twice. How they sing

540
00:27:44,839 --> 00:27:46,880
their little ad libs or little licks on the guitar,

541
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:52,279
And so him being able to lipseyn was like so hard.

542
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:53,960
Speaker 5: He like really had.

543
00:27:53,839 --> 00:28:00,680
Speaker 3: It's so hard it is, and it's so hard.

544
00:28:02,599 --> 00:28:05,799
Speaker 2: Tar had a blowout and my mom's car got shut.

545
00:28:05,599 --> 00:28:11,400
Speaker 3: Up, started to Jesus and we all got hijacked. We're

546
00:28:11,519 --> 00:28:14,759
cruising down the highway this big off Canillac and it's

547
00:28:14,759 --> 00:28:17,039
so hard.

548
00:28:17,279 --> 00:28:18,359
Speaker 5: It's so hot.

549
00:28:18,839 --> 00:28:20,200
Speaker 4: Bag sitting these guys.

550
00:28:24,559 --> 00:28:26,799
Speaker 3: Hey, you mentioned the Babysitter Blues. Okay, I want to

551
00:28:26,799 --> 00:28:28,519
talk about it real quick. You and I talked about

552
00:28:28,559 --> 00:28:32,319
this already in a former episode. The writer of The

553
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:37,640
Babysitter Blues. His name is Mark Mueller. He also wrote

554
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:41,839
the song Crushed by Jennifer Page Yes, which was a

555
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:43,440
huge hit in the late nineties.

556
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 5: It's from her album Greatest Hit.

557
00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:50,960
Speaker 3: He also wrote That's what Love Is For by Amy Grantow,

558
00:28:51,720 --> 00:29:06,519
and he wrote Nothing at All by Heart, featured on

559
00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:09,880
the self titled Heart album that we covered and go

560
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:11,680
back and listen to us go track. I tracked through

561
00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:13,759
that one, all right. Two more people I want to

562
00:29:13,759 --> 00:29:16,799
bring up really quickly. From the cast of Adventures and Babysitting,

563
00:29:17,359 --> 00:29:21,079
you have George Newbern, who goes on to play Steve

564
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:24,640
Martin's future son in law in the movie Father of

565
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:27,519
the Bride. That's what I recognize him the most. From

566
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:33,599
Brian McKenzie McKinsey, I met a man and I'm getting married.

567
00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:38,039
Speaker 2: Are you telling me I could have a grandchild named

568
00:29:38,079 --> 00:29:43,799
Sophie Zenkman. I love that movie. That's such a good movie. Yes, okay.

569
00:29:44,759 --> 00:29:49,759
Speaker 3: And then Lolita Davidovich plays Sue Anne or the Blonde.

570
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,759
She is the girl at the frat party that Darryl

571
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:55,240
gets kind of hooked up with.

572
00:29:56,119 --> 00:29:58,200
Speaker 2: I wondered, Okay, yeah, you.

573
00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:02,960
Speaker 3: Probably recognized she was in the movie. She married Ron Shelton,

574
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:07,759
who wrote the screenplay for Bull, Durham and Cobb and

575
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:09,000
White Man Can't Jump.

576
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:11,240
Speaker 2: She was a Babe in a Half.

577
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:15,359
Speaker 4: Ron Canada played Graydon, Yes, one of the rough guys there,

578
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:18,279
and you see him all the time now on television.

579
00:30:18,279 --> 00:30:22,440
He's usually either a judge or a detective. But I

580
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:25,279
also know him of course from not only Star Trek

581
00:30:25,359 --> 00:30:28,480
the Next Generation, but also Star Trek Deep Space nine

582
00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:32,599
and finally in Star Trek Voyager, so we have more

583
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:36,079
Star Trek connectivity tissues. I'm sorry, I can't help myself.

584
00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:38,599
Speaker 3: That's okay, all right, let's go through some tidbits and

585
00:30:38,599 --> 00:30:40,279
then we'll make our way to final judgment. So it's

586
00:30:40,319 --> 00:30:43,079
gonna sound good. All right, let's do some tidbits from

587
00:30:43,319 --> 00:30:44,440
Adventures in Baby.

588
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,519
Speaker 6: City, Chuck, you already mentioned this, but like the fact

589
00:30:46,599 --> 00:30:49,119
that although it takes place in Chicago, most of this

590
00:30:49,359 --> 00:30:53,240
was shot in Toronto. One of their problems that they

591
00:30:53,279 --> 00:30:56,680
had shooting in Toronto is that it was too clean.

592
00:30:56,880 --> 00:31:00,599
They would put trash on the set to make it

593
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:04,759
look like Chicago. The problem was that workers from the

594
00:31:04,799 --> 00:31:08,559
city would see the trash and pick it up and

595
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,160
throw it away. They actually had to get crew members

596
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:15,319
and dress them up as guards to guard the trash

597
00:31:15,839 --> 00:31:20,400
so that their city of Chicago in Toronto right would

598
00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:23,359
continue to look like Chicago.

599
00:31:23,079 --> 00:31:24,640
Speaker 3: Those darn clean Canadians.

600
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 2: I know, hey.

601
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:30,319
Speaker 4: I wanted to point out that, because I was working

602
00:31:30,319 --> 00:31:33,039
at the movie theater, I saw this poster all summer long.

603
00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:36,880
You can see I have a Bukaroo Bonsai poster behind me,

604
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:39,240
So I have a bunch of posters that I was

605
00:31:39,279 --> 00:31:41,599
able to take home. The one I couldn't get was

606
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,599
the one for Adventures and Babysitting because someone else had

607
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:46,400
snagged it before I was able.

608
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:46,759
Speaker 2: To get there.

609
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:50,680
Speaker 4: That poster was drawn by Drew Strusan, who would go

610
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:53,599
on to draw a lot of the Star Wars and

611
00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:56,799
a lot of the posters that we have come to love.

612
00:31:57,039 --> 00:32:01,079
Speaking of like the other people who work inside this film,

613
00:32:01,319 --> 00:32:04,799
I did want to say that the composer was Michael Kaman,

614
00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:07,200
who wrote the film and this movie does have a

615
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:10,119
proper score to it, and you will know him from

616
00:32:10,359 --> 00:32:18,400
the greatest Christmas movie ever made, die Hard. And then finally, finally,

617
00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:21,960
I wanted to recognize the cinematographer. I know, you guys

618
00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:24,759
normally don't get down into this deep part of it.

619
00:32:24,799 --> 00:32:26,799
But I love how the movies are made, as I

620
00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,599
said earlier, and this was done by Rock Waite, and

621
00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:33,519
Rock worked on a lot of great films, including forty

622
00:32:33,559 --> 00:32:37,599
eight Hours, Footloose, Red down there with John Milius and

623
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:40,200
all the other folks we've been naming today. He worked

624
00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:44,640
with Brewsters Millions, He worked with Carl Reiner on Summer Rental,

625
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:48,200
and he did two John Candy films. He also did Volunteers.

626
00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:52,200
That year he shot Cobra Rambo three and The Great Outdoors.

627
00:32:52,359 --> 00:32:54,720
So this guy has a lot of films that you

628
00:32:54,759 --> 00:32:57,319
guys have talked about that we all loved from the eighties.

629
00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:00,799
Speaker 3: Right there, Okay, two nuggets for you. You can see

630
00:33:00,799 --> 00:33:02,599
by like their letter jackets and stuff. They go to

631
00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:06,359
Hemingway Hot which is a fictional school, but Ernest Hemingway

632
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:10,279
was born and raised in Oak Park, Illinois, and so

633
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:12,640
that was a tribute to Ernest Hemingway.

634
00:33:12,759 --> 00:33:14,440
Speaker 5: Oh interesting, nice kays.

635
00:33:15,079 --> 00:33:18,200
Speaker 3: And then lastly, I wanted to drop. I looked up

636
00:33:18,319 --> 00:33:21,799
the movie starts with a needle drop for the Crystal song,

637
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:24,559
and then he kissed Me, which is a great, great

638
00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:27,799
song and a wonderful way to kick off the movie.

639
00:33:28,079 --> 00:33:31,400
So I was looking at this. That song was written

640
00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:35,640
by Phil Spector, Ellie Greenwich, and Jeff Barry, who all

641
00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:37,799
wrote be My Baby, which we talked about on our

642
00:33:37,839 --> 00:33:38,720
Dirty Dancing.

643
00:33:38,519 --> 00:33:41,839
Speaker 2: Episode, which, by the way, to tie it back again

644
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:45,319
features Share singing in the background in one of her

645
00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:46,480
very first recordings.

646
00:33:46,559 --> 00:33:48,920
Speaker 3: That's right, and also it's featured in the movie Dirty Dancing,

647
00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:51,839
which stars Jennifer Gray. And then He Kissed Me was

648
00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:57,119
covered by Gary Glitter Kiss and the Beach Boys, and

649
00:33:57,200 --> 00:34:00,160
the singer La La Brooks was just fifteen years old

650
00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:02,599
when she sang it, and Phil Spector went to her

651
00:34:02,599 --> 00:34:05,359
and said, I want you to sing it like there's

652
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:08,599
a boy that you just kissed, and she's like, I haven't.

653
00:34:08,679 --> 00:34:12,760
I haven't ever really kissed anybody yet. And he's like, then,

654
00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:17,119
just imagine that she just kidd And so she was

655
00:34:17,159 --> 00:34:20,159
too young to have really kissed the boy, and yet

656
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:23,000
delivers this great vocal for this great song for the ages.

657
00:34:23,119 --> 00:34:25,119
All right, that's all the tibbets I have on Adventures

658
00:34:25,159 --> 00:34:25,760
of Babysitting.

659
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:29,360
Speaker 6: They got one, Okay, there is so Chris's wife, the director.

660
00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:33,800
Chris's wife is Monica Devereaux. There's a lot of interesting

661
00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:38,400
little easter eggs that are throughout the movie that feature her.

662
00:34:38,639 --> 00:34:42,760
For example, did she choreographed that first scene you're talking about.

663
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:45,480
Speaker 5: She choreographed that. Then he kissed me.

664
00:34:45,679 --> 00:34:50,039
Speaker 6: Seen also choreographed the scene of the blues at the

665
00:34:50,079 --> 00:34:52,639
bar scene, so she put all that together. There's a

666
00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:55,840
mention when they're on the train. Hey, when this train

667
00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:58,920
rolls through Devereux Street, it's an archer. There is no

668
00:34:59,039 --> 00:35:02,920
Devaux Street in Chicago. Oh nice, But that's her last name.

669
00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:05,119
And if you want to know what she looks like,

670
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:08,119
she is the prostitute in the white fur coat that

671
00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:10,920
you know says I'm seventeen smart.

672
00:35:11,199 --> 00:35:14,360
Speaker 3: Really whoa, that's a great nugget.

673
00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:17,480
Speaker 2: Okay, that's interesting. That is good. Yeah, you know, and we.

674
00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:19,679
Speaker 3: Talked about it maybe in this episode. I can't remember her.

675
00:35:19,679 --> 00:35:21,199
It was this or or the last one. If you

676
00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:25,199
watch this on Disney, they remove the big F bomb

677
00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:29,119
in that train scene, which the double F bomb, the

678
00:35:29,159 --> 00:35:32,079
double F bomb, that's right, the double fom which when

679
00:35:32,119 --> 00:35:35,320
you watch the movie theater that hit like Bruce willis

680
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:39,440
yippie kaya line. I mean, it's a nuclear bomb. And

681
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:42,000
then when you hear don't fool with the babysitter just

682
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:42,960
doesn't quite.

683
00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:45,079
Speaker 2: Kind of that's all the gas out of the tank,

684
00:35:45,119 --> 00:35:45,599
didn't it right?

685
00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:46,039
Speaker 5: Well.

686
00:35:46,079 --> 00:35:48,400
Speaker 6: A week ago I was watching it again because I

687
00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:51,239
haven't seen this in decades, since I was watching it

688
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:54,239
with my daughters. They were twenty and eighteen that maybe

689
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:57,159
have seen like the remake that was made with the

690
00:35:57,199 --> 00:35:59,920
Disney Channel, and it was kind of a throwaway, you know.

691
00:36:00,039 --> 00:36:02,039
Speaker 5: They didn't know was a remake whatever they saw it.

692
00:36:02,079 --> 00:36:05,760
Speaker 6: Sitting down and watching this and when that scene came on,

693
00:36:06,159 --> 00:36:08,159
my youngest looked at me and he goes, that's not

694
00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:08,840
what she said.

695
00:36:10,639 --> 00:36:13,159
Speaker 4: I had. I didn't get the movie poster. And one

696
00:36:13,199 --> 00:36:15,880
of the other things that we had that was often

697
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:18,719
given out was you'd have buttons and you'd wear them

698
00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:21,920
on your vest to advertise the movies. And there were

699
00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:24,639
two of them for this movie that I had for

700
00:36:24,679 --> 00:36:26,679
a long time, no idea where they are. One of

701
00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:30,559
them is just a smaller version of the Drew Strusan poster,

702
00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:33,079
but another one is one that just says don't f

703
00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:37,079
and then cartoons swear words with the babysitter on it,

704
00:36:37,199 --> 00:36:38,760
which I wish I had that button.

705
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:41,880
Speaker 2: Still, I love it. I love it. Quick side note

706
00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:44,880
on the remake, which, by the way, been ten years

707
00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:47,719
since they remade this movie. Really it's been It was

708
00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:52,320
twenty sixteen sixteen, but stars Sabrina Carpenter. Yes, which is

709
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:55,320
probably not a big impact to Jason because he has

710
00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:58,079
no idea what modern music is like. But she is

711
00:36:58,119 --> 00:37:01,559
one of the hottest pop stars around right now. She

712
00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:05,880
is literally everywhere on the charts all the time for

713
00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:07,039
the last year and a half.

714
00:37:07,679 --> 00:37:09,320
Speaker 5: I would like an expresso right now.

715
00:37:09,679 --> 00:37:11,880
Speaker 2: There you go, that's an express though.

716
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:13,960
Speaker 5: I want an espresso right now.

717
00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:17,719
Speaker 3: Okay. Any nuggets from Ferris Bueler's Day Off from you.

718
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:21,119
Speaker 4: Chuck Well, I will I will say that in nineteen

719
00:37:21,159 --> 00:37:24,320
eighty six, this was the tenth highest grossing film of

720
00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:28,679
the year, but there were actually three other comedies that

721
00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:31,039
grossed higher in it, you know. The number one we've

722
00:37:31,039 --> 00:37:34,159
already talked about was Top Gun, not really a comedy,

723
00:37:34,199 --> 00:37:37,880
but the number two was a film about an Australian

724
00:37:38,159 --> 00:37:43,519
man who would go into the outpack crocodile Dundee. The

725
00:37:43,559 --> 00:37:47,320
next movie was The Back to School. Back to School

726
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:51,119
was number four with Rodney Dangerfield. Finally, we had Ruthless

727
00:37:51,159 --> 00:37:53,519
People came in at number eight with both Danny DeVito

728
00:37:53,599 --> 00:37:57,039
and Bette Midler along with Judge Reinhold in that film.

729
00:37:57,360 --> 00:38:00,960
So this film, it opened on Juna Lee and it

730
00:38:01,079 --> 00:38:05,039
stayed in theaters well until September.

731
00:38:05,119 --> 00:38:05,679
Speaker 2: I mean it was.

732
00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:08,440
Speaker 4: It was in theaters all summer, played at the midnights,

733
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:12,119
and it was. It was a just a summer of

734
00:38:12,159 --> 00:38:15,159
eighty six. It was a good movie, Yeah, it sure was.

735
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:18,239
Speaker 6: I got a question for you in terms of nuggets.

736
00:38:19,039 --> 00:38:22,880
You know how when they film cars like in films,

737
00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:26,639
they have multiple versions of that car. My question is

738
00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:32,519
how many Ferraris did they have on set for Ferris

739
00:38:32,559 --> 00:38:40,360
Bueler Zeros.

740
00:38:37,519 --> 00:38:38,039
Speaker 2: They had time.

741
00:38:38,159 --> 00:38:41,599
Speaker 6: I can't afford the insurance to have one just sit

742
00:38:42,639 --> 00:38:43,480
not even touch it.

743
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:45,840
Speaker 2: Back then it was a fifteen million dollar car.

744
00:38:46,159 --> 00:38:49,639
Speaker 6: Yes, only one hundred were made for real. They couldn't

745
00:38:49,679 --> 00:38:52,519
even afford to have it just sit there and afford

746
00:38:52,559 --> 00:38:55,320
the insurance. So these are all shells of a car.

747
00:38:55,559 --> 00:38:58,559
There was three of them that were on Mustang chassis,

748
00:38:58,679 --> 00:39:00,400
so they have like the normal, but here a car

749
00:39:00,519 --> 00:39:02,719
that the that the kids would write around in. There

750
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:04,519
was one that was souped up a little bit more

751
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:06,840
that they could do all the stunts with. And then

752
00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:09,920
the third one was just a fiberglass body that that's

753
00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:11,559
the one that goes out the window. And if you

754
00:39:11,679 --> 00:39:15,880
look really carefully when that car goes down. One of

755
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:17,639
the problems they had because you can only do that

756
00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:21,679
shot once. Yeah, one of the problems was because it's fiberglass,

757
00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:26,920
it tore on the hood of the car and they're like, okay,

758
00:39:27,079 --> 00:39:29,639
what do we do? So they got some like leaves

759
00:39:29,679 --> 00:39:32,079
and like actually had to like paint some leaves green

760
00:39:32,159 --> 00:39:34,719
or whatever and kind of just put it, you know,

761
00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:37,280
in a way where it didn't you couldn't notice it,

762
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:40,760
but that you know, the real car wouldn't have done that.

763
00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:43,119
And so it was the third car was made of

764
00:39:43,119 --> 00:39:44,400
fiberglass that went out the window.

765
00:39:44,639 --> 00:39:46,960
Speaker 4: So a comment on the on the car that I

766
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:50,400
had earlier, I think I said that the sound design

767
00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:54,239
in this film is phenomenal. And the moment that they

768
00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:59,360
open up the garage door and you hear them yeah,

769
00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:03,000
and it starts that whole part there. There's a scene

770
00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:06,079
where Ferris goes over and he puts his finger on

771
00:40:06,119 --> 00:40:08,280
the car and he just strokes it all the way

772
00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:11,000
up and then you hear the big squeak at the end.

773
00:40:11,639 --> 00:40:14,880
Listen to the beginning of it, it's a woman moaning.

774
00:40:16,639 --> 00:40:19,480
Speaker 2: And it's it's Jason. That's the sound of an orgasm.

775
00:40:21,679 --> 00:40:24,079
Speaker 3: I know, thank you.

776
00:40:24,159 --> 00:40:27,719
Speaker 4: But when the car goes out the window there at

777
00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:29,960
the end, as Dave was saying, they had to go

778
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:32,599
through and this film at this point was being was

779
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:35,199
when they were filming these scenes, was in October, so

780
00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:38,000
all the foliage was starting to change. And there's a

781
00:40:38,039 --> 00:40:41,039
reverse shot where they're looking at the kids standing in

782
00:40:41,079 --> 00:40:43,599
the framing of the window. If you look at the reflection,

783
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:46,960
it's it's all autumn leaves. But then when they film

784
00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:49,480
from the reverse side of it, you know they've they've

785
00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:53,280
already because that was filmed earlier. They've already got all

786
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:55,800
the leaves put out. They had to. They had all

787
00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:59,199
the leaves painted up green. They also had to replace

788
00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:03,360
all of the gale glass inside the building because they

789
00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:06,360
were afraid that when the car went out. First of all,

790
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:08,679
the glass had a patina on it now that had

791
00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:11,760
already aged, so they couldn't destroy any of the original glass.

792
00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:15,400
The fear was that if they removed that one pain

793
00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:18,239
and replaced it with a fake one, that all of

794
00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:21,559
the other pains might break. Also at the same time,

795
00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:24,599
just from the force and the structure of the home.

796
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:27,440
So they replaced all of the glass in there with

797
00:41:27,559 --> 00:41:29,480
the glass that you see in there, and then they

798
00:41:29,679 --> 00:41:32,440
reinstalled it. I have one more tidbit, and it's the

799
00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:35,199
tidbit that I can't let go of. It's twist and shout.

800
00:41:35,559 --> 00:41:39,960
How does this movie get a Beatles song in their

801
00:41:40,119 --> 00:41:44,039
film when it's well known that just like Led Zeppelin

802
00:41:44,079 --> 00:41:47,599
and Pink Floyd, the Beatles do not license. They did

803
00:41:47,599 --> 00:41:51,719
not license their music into movies. Luckily they had The

804
00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:56,320
director of music was a former executive at Arista Records,

805
00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:59,480
and he happened to remember something. The Beatles did not

806
00:42:00,079 --> 00:42:05,039
write that song. That song was written by Bert Burns

807
00:42:05,079 --> 00:42:07,800
and Phil Medley. So it turns out the Beatles did

808
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:10,599
not own the publishing rights. And when they went to

809
00:42:10,599 --> 00:42:14,320
the publishing company, the publishing company is going, yes, make

810
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:20,679
us money, even though the record label would say no.

811
00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:35,239
So who are they going to deny a company from

812
00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:37,639
making a little bit of income. The second thing about

813
00:42:37,679 --> 00:42:40,559
the song Twist and sout, you'll notice that there's a

814
00:42:40,599 --> 00:42:43,760
horn line that has been added and layered into the song.

815
00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:47,679
So this is this is the Beatles, right, But they

816
00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:50,119
had a marching band that was in front of the

817
00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,880
of the float, and they're like, oh, we need to

818
00:42:53,119 --> 00:42:55,199
put a band in there, you know, so a horn

819
00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:57,840
line marching band. And so once again they go to

820
00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:02,360
Ira Newborn, Ira Newborn arrange just the music that they're

821
00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:05,519
gonna layer in on top of it, which was only

822
00:43:05,599 --> 00:43:08,599
Paul McCartney's only comment. He said, he liked the film,

823
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:11,960
but they overdubbed some lousy brass on the stuff, and

824
00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:14,800
if we had wanted brass, we would have stuck it

825
00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:19,559
in ourselves. And that comment really hurt John Hughes because

826
00:43:19,559 --> 00:43:22,360
he was a big Beatles fan, and even if you

827
00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:25,639
listen to the director commentary, you can hear that he's

828
00:43:25,679 --> 00:43:29,000
still I mean, it's still something that really bothered him

829
00:43:29,519 --> 00:43:33,280
about that comment from McCartney.

830
00:43:33,559 --> 00:43:35,599
Speaker 3: Hey, I love it. Okay, I got one last tidbit

831
00:43:35,639 --> 00:43:39,400
and we'll get into final judgment. Twist and Shout was

832
00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:47,039
also featured in another Summer eighty six movie.

833
00:43:45,039 --> 00:43:48,559
Speaker 4: It was the Gosh, it was the next It's all

834
00:43:48,559 --> 00:43:50,559
the tip of my top. It's almost like the next movie.

835
00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:54,639
It's gonna come to me. I should have had this

836
00:43:54,679 --> 00:43:58,159
one down, but I know it, but I'm not gonna

837
00:43:58,159 --> 00:43:58,840
be able to say it.

838
00:43:59,199 --> 00:44:04,760
Speaker 3: Rodney danger Field sings it and back to school shake by.

839
00:44:07,199 --> 00:44:14,440
Speaker 2: Twist and shoe, Come on, come on, come on home baby,

840
00:44:14,559 --> 00:44:15,920
come on, I'll work head on.

841
00:44:21,079 --> 00:44:23,840
Speaker 3: Oh how about that?

842
00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:24,679
Speaker 2: That was? That was?

843
00:44:26,159 --> 00:44:29,159
Speaker 4: That was not what I was going to say. I

844
00:44:29,199 --> 00:44:31,199
was going to say that it was an it. The

845
00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:35,119
editor Hirsch did another movie after this one, and he

846
00:44:35,199 --> 00:44:38,880
brought the twist and shout to that one, and he

847
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:44,159
also brought Walking on Shun Sunshine. So Walking on Sunshine

848
00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:48,199
was the song that Hirsh was editing to during the

849
00:44:48,199 --> 00:44:51,920
scene right after they leave the high school with Simone

850
00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:55,039
and they're going into Chicago. Uh, And they replaced that

851
00:44:55,480 --> 00:44:59,079
with Beat City by the flower Pot Men. John Hees

852
00:44:59,119 --> 00:45:02,119
actually liked it until he heard the song over and

853
00:45:02,199 --> 00:45:04,840
over again and then he decided, I'm tired of it,

854
00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:09,119
you know. And John Hughes just being this voracious collector

855
00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:14,039
of all things music, especially music that's over from either

856
00:45:15,079 --> 00:45:19,119
you know, the UK, some some lesser known bands, you know,

857
00:45:19,159 --> 00:45:21,719
he found some other music that he put in there.

858
00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:36,760
Speaker 3: All right, we're on the final judgment. Oh Dave, this

859
00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:38,360
is your movie. You're from Chicago.

860
00:45:38,559 --> 00:45:39,159
Speaker 2: What do you think.

861
00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:43,079
Speaker 6: Here's the thing is like we started this whole series

862
00:45:43,119 --> 00:45:46,599
saying that we want these movies is on the Mount Rushmore.

863
00:45:46,679 --> 00:45:49,920
I mean, Ferris Bueller is the Day Off is iconic

864
00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:54,320
for multiple reasons. So if you're gonna give a judgment,

865
00:45:55,199 --> 00:46:01,000
it's gonna go to Ferris Bueler. However, I want Command

866
00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:05,199
Adventures and Babysitting. This movie, like is able to hold

867
00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:09,320
up to something as iconic as Ferris Bueller. Again, I

868
00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:11,199
mentioned that I was watching it with my daughters because

869
00:46:11,199 --> 00:46:13,719
I was kind of curious to see what their opinion

870
00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:16,920
of this film would be, and they really enjoyed it.

871
00:46:16,960 --> 00:46:19,719
They really liked it. I even kind of just watched

872
00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:21,639
their body language, like are they kind of bored? Are

873
00:46:21,639 --> 00:46:24,360
they on their phones? But they were like really into it.

874
00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:28,039
So this movie, I think is a really strong contender,

875
00:46:28,559 --> 00:46:31,159
you know, versus it being just a blowout of like, oh,

876
00:46:31,199 --> 00:46:34,519
they tried to make this thing like Ferris Bueller by

877
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:37,639
but they didn't. They didn't get there. No, I feel

878
00:46:37,679 --> 00:46:41,039
like it's strong, all the different character arcs, the nods

879
00:46:41,039 --> 00:46:45,480
to Chicago, it's it's a beautiful movie. So no, it's

880
00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:48,639
got to go to Ferris Buehler. But Man Adventures in

881
00:46:48,679 --> 00:46:51,280
Babysitting even just being able to watch it last week

882
00:46:51,320 --> 00:46:53,599
and just be able to remind myself, is such a

883
00:46:53,599 --> 00:46:54,679
good movie, all.

884
00:46:54,639 --> 00:46:57,280
Speaker 4: Right, Jack, you know, I'll be honest, I was really

885
00:46:57,320 --> 00:47:00,760
hoping that this might be more more of a close

886
00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:04,239
fight than what it was because you look at Adventures

887
00:47:04,280 --> 00:47:07,920
and Babysitting and it's a fantastic debut from Chris Columbus,

888
00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:08,400
no doubt.

889
00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:09,159
Speaker 2: I mean, it's.

890
00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:12,400
Speaker 4: Fun, it's chaotic, it's got hard and it I mean

891
00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:16,559
it works. It taps into a kids on an adventure

892
00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:20,800
vibe that Chris Columbus is so known for. I'm thinking

893
00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:21,800
like of the Goonies.

894
00:47:21,840 --> 00:47:22,039
Speaker 2: You know.

895
00:47:22,079 --> 00:47:25,239
Speaker 4: It's kind of got that rescue mission. It's got a

896
00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:29,760
memorable side, memorable side characters, and it kind of delivers

897
00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:32,320
on exactly what it said it was going to do.

898
00:47:33,239 --> 00:47:35,280
But then you got Ferris Bueller's Day Off, and that's

899
00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:39,239
where the conversation is starting to shift for me, because

900
00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:43,719
Ferris isn't just another teen movie. It's just operating on

901
00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:49,199
a completely different level. The interaction between Matthew Broderick and

902
00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:52,679
Alan Ruck, I mean, they're just beyond playing friends there,

903
00:47:52,679 --> 00:47:55,360
and you believe them, you believe that there's history there

904
00:47:55,840 --> 00:48:00,039
and the relationship. Their relationship is absolutely the backbone of

905
00:48:00,079 --> 00:48:02,639
the entire film. And you know, we didn't get this

906
00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:06,840
talk too much about the soundtrack because it's it's almost

907
00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:10,480
an identity inside this film. It's it's just a perfectly

908
00:48:10,559 --> 00:48:15,800
curated mixtape, you know. But then again, what John Hughes

909
00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:20,360
film isn't But I think what the real difference maker

910
00:48:20,599 --> 00:48:23,719
is between Adventures and Babysitting and Ferris Bueller is what

911
00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:28,360
the movie is actually about. So Adventures in Babysitting is

912
00:48:28,519 --> 00:48:32,960
about surviving a wild night. Ferris Buehler is about saving

913
00:48:33,039 --> 00:48:37,639
a friend. Ferris isn't just ditching school. He's doing it

914
00:48:37,719 --> 00:48:41,480
because Cameron is drowning, not literally at first, but maybe

915
00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:44,559
a little bit more emotionally psychologically, and he's stuck under,

916
00:48:45,079 --> 00:48:48,320
you know, this weight of his life, and Ferris is

917
00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:51,159
spending the entire day trying to pull him out of that.

918
00:48:51,639 --> 00:48:55,599
And by the end he does. Literally Cameron stands up

919
00:48:55,639 --> 00:48:59,840
to his father, he faces his fear, he changes. So

920
00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:04,880
you said earlier d that the real hero here in

921
00:49:04,920 --> 00:49:08,280
the movie was it was about Cameron, and you're absolutely right.

922
00:49:08,920 --> 00:49:12,400
It's a transformation. And I do want to say one

923
00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:17,639
last thing about the antagonist, because you know, the antagonists

924
00:49:17,639 --> 00:49:22,519
reinforce all of this. You know, Rooney loses, he's humiliated.

925
00:49:22,840 --> 00:49:26,000
He was fighting Ferris and you really didn't have a chance.

926
00:49:26,079 --> 00:49:29,159
But Jeanie, Jeanie has grown through the whole film. She

927
00:49:29,239 --> 00:49:32,480
realizes that her problem was never about Ferris, it was

928
00:49:32,519 --> 00:49:36,480
really herself. And that's that's real character work, a lot

929
00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:38,639
of character work in a movie on the surface that

930
00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:40,760
you thought you were just going in for a comedy,

931
00:49:41,199 --> 00:49:45,199
And ultimately that's why this isn't really a close call

932
00:49:45,239 --> 00:49:48,519
at all. Adventures in Babysitting is a good movie, but

933
00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:51,920
Ferris Buehler's Day Off is a defining one. So you've

934
00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:55,480
said it before. It's funnier, it's sharper, it's more layered,

935
00:49:55,519 --> 00:49:58,199
and at its core, it's actually got something to say.

936
00:49:58,360 --> 00:50:06,679
Speaker 7: So, oh yeah, Farris wins in Gosh, honestly, it wasn't

937
00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:08,679
even close as much as I was hoping it would be.

938
00:50:09,440 --> 00:50:14,840
Speaker 2: So you're saying, Genie, the problem is you.

939
00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:16,199
Speaker 3: Fit a little time, Less time on your brother, more

940
00:50:16,199 --> 00:50:16,960
time on yourself.

941
00:50:17,519 --> 00:50:21,239
Speaker 2: Go all right, d you're up. I wanted to come

942
00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:25,599
and be a Adventures in Babysitting apologists today, but it

943
00:50:25,639 --> 00:50:27,400
felt like I didn't have to. I really felt like

944
00:50:27,440 --> 00:50:30,760
you guys really brought it in. We did talk more

945
00:50:31,039 --> 00:50:34,079
about Adventures in Babysitting today than we did on our

946
00:50:34,159 --> 00:50:38,559
last episode, and I appreciate that, and I think you

947
00:50:38,599 --> 00:50:42,840
guys are all one percent right. Adventures in Babysitting is

948
00:50:42,880 --> 00:50:46,239
a great movie. It's well directed, it's well acted, it's

949
00:50:46,239 --> 00:50:49,960
got memorable parts. It's got a unique story structure for

950
00:50:50,119 --> 00:50:52,960
Chris Columbus because he does kind of do his or

951
00:50:53,000 --> 00:50:55,480
his fingerprint stuff on it. I didn't actually see this

952
00:50:55,559 --> 00:50:58,840
movie until I was an adult with children, so I

953
00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:00,920
watched it for the first time with kid and they

954
00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:06,320
enjoyed it. But the difference is when I was watching

955
00:51:06,320 --> 00:51:09,320
it today and my sixteen year old came in, he

956
00:51:09,440 --> 00:51:12,679
was like, I think I've seen this movie before, you know.

957
00:51:12,719 --> 00:51:16,079
That was what his reaction was. My fourteen year old,

958
00:51:16,119 --> 00:51:19,840
who was probably eight or nine when she saw Ferris

959
00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:22,760
Bueller's Day Off for the first time, would ask to

960
00:51:22,840 --> 00:51:27,519
see it virtually every week after that. And if that

961
00:51:27,719 --> 00:51:29,880
is the effect that you have on a nine year old,

962
00:51:30,400 --> 00:51:32,679
and we feel the way we do about it into

963
00:51:32,719 --> 00:51:35,639
our fifties, then that tells you that this is more

964
00:51:35,679 --> 00:51:39,559
than just a really good movie. This is a culture changing,

965
00:51:40,039 --> 00:51:46,760
paradigm shifting, truly unique movie that will be talked about

966
00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:51,000
long after people have forgotten what Adventures and Babysitting Ever was.

967
00:51:52,679 --> 00:51:55,880
So you're voting for Ferris Speeler's Dan's it's not a vote,

968
00:51:55,920 --> 00:51:56,239
it's not.

969
00:51:56,199 --> 00:51:57,079
Speaker 5: A question, Okay.

970
00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:01,000
Speaker 3: So I said before, I said it before, and I'll

971
00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:03,840
say it again. One of these is a great movie,

972
00:52:04,119 --> 00:52:06,639
and one of these is among the mount Rushmore movies

973
00:52:06,679 --> 00:52:10,599
of the nineteen eighties. When I watch Flash Gordon, I

974
00:52:10,719 --> 00:52:14,000
enjoy Flash Gordon. I love it. I think it's great.

975
00:52:14,159 --> 00:52:18,679
But when I watch Star Wars, then I really go, Okay,

976
00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:22,400
now that's a great movie. And Flash Gordon came from

977
00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:26,360
Star Wars in that sense, and so Adventures from Babysitting

978
00:52:26,840 --> 00:52:29,440
is a great fun movie. I enjoy it. I think

979
00:52:29,440 --> 00:52:32,559
my kids enjoyed it. It's fun. I really like it.

980
00:52:32,639 --> 00:52:35,920
Chris Columbus, great director. We all love Elizabeth Shoe, but

981
00:52:36,159 --> 00:52:38,320
I agree with all of you guys. I mean, Farrispueler

982
00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:41,880
is a generational movie. It's a once in a generation

983
00:52:41,960 --> 00:52:45,119
type of movie. So mark me down for Farrispeeler's Day Off.

984
00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:49,880
That makes four four times that we voted for first.

985
00:52:49,679 --> 00:52:50,760
Speaker 2: Peler four times.

986
00:52:51,039 --> 00:52:53,440
Speaker 5: Hi, I remember voting four times.

987
00:52:55,800 --> 00:52:57,480
Speaker 2: Guys. Thank you so much for joining us for the

988

Speaker 2: Wow, that is going to be epic, Chuck, what do

994
00:53:15,519 --> 00:53:17,960
you got coming up? On the Cinematic Flashback Podcast.

995
00:53:18,519 --> 00:53:23,440
Speaker 4: We are in our Getting Weird Movie month here. I've

996
00:53:23,480 --> 00:53:26,280
been looking for it in a little bit and very

997
00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:28,760
excited about getting to this one, but also a little

998
00:53:28,760 --> 00:53:31,360
bit nervous. Where you know, we've we've just put out

999
00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:36,519
The wicker Man and releasing real soon. Is gonna be Zardas.

1000
00:53:36,559 --> 00:53:39,480
This is a film I have been campaigning for to

1001
00:53:39,559 --> 00:53:44,119
get the Sean Connery and the Red Diaper. This is

1002
00:53:44,159 --> 00:53:47,039
a film that I watched prior to starting the Cinematic

1003
00:53:47,079 --> 00:53:51,760
Flashback Podcast, and I have to say it is a

1004
00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:56,119
movie that's maybe worth taking a look at. So anyways,

1005
00:53:56,159 --> 00:53:58,239
that's all I'll say about it. There's some interesting twist

1006
00:53:58,280 --> 00:54:00,519
and turns in that, so yeah, join.

1007
00:54:00,480 --> 00:54:03,119
Speaker 2: Us let me just elaborate just a bit, not just

1008
00:54:03,159 --> 00:54:07,800
a red diaper, but like a red bikini with bandolero

1009
00:54:08,079 --> 00:54:13,840
type bullets strapped across his chest and a ponytail. Yeah.

1010
00:54:13,880 --> 00:54:16,119
Speaker 4: For those of you who know the movie, you know

1011
00:54:16,159 --> 00:54:21,840
the quote the gun is good, the is bad. And

1012
00:54:21,880 --> 00:54:22,920
I'm gonna leave it at that.

1013
00:54:23,239 --> 00:54:24,960
Speaker 6: And so you guys are interesting because like you got

1014
00:54:24,960 --> 00:54:26,840
