Speaker 1: Bulky.
Speaker 2: I want to read you a text that I received
Speaker 2: moments before this podcast started. Okay, dude, I watched the
Speaker 2: Pizza Movie. I may have surrendered a few IQ points,
Speaker 2: but there were definitely a few chuckles. That's from a
Speaker 2: Wisconsin state senator, really that listened to you and I
Speaker 2: chatting on Outside the Box yesterday took the time. I'm like, man,
Speaker 2: of all the movies that I've talked about.
Speaker 1: Pizza Movies is the one that here she went with.
Speaker 1: Here she Pizza movie is the one she went with. Yes,
Speaker 1: And I have to say, you guys have talked about Nuremberg.
Speaker 1: You guys have talked about the Fantastic Four.
Speaker 2: What are some of the other big ones, the long walks,
Speaker 2: some artistic ones. We were all over the spectrum in
Speaker 2: films that would be worth seeing and the one that
Speaker 2: broke out?
Speaker 1: What does this say about the Wisconsin was it state representative,
Speaker 1: state senator, state senator, Wisconsin state senator that she is
Speaker 1: mostly intrigued by the stoner comedy angle that we've not
Speaker 1: really explored on this podcast before.
Speaker 2: No, no, that was this was our first web at
Speaker 2: it here and it definitely says something that's for sure.
Speaker 2: And I texted back. Just to be clear, those Bulky
Speaker 2: and Ie segments are not endorsements of the film.
Speaker 1: No, you know what you should have said to her,
Speaker 1: and like you should have been like, remind me again
Speaker 1: why weed is still not.
Speaker 2: Legal in this state. I actually should because you know,
Speaker 2: I don't want to read the follow up, but read
Speaker 2: the last text that she sent me.
Speaker 1: You know. You know what's funny about that is this
Speaker 1: was a not a theater movie. Pizza Movie was on
Speaker 1: Hulu and Disney Plus, so we didn't have to We
Speaker 1: could be in the comfort of our own homes watching
Speaker 1: this movie. It was the only way to do it
Speaker 1: because it's not in theaters. And I thought about indulging, Ben,
Speaker 1: I thought about indulging. Yeah, and I didn't, And I'm
Speaker 1: glad I didn't.
Speaker 2: Well for the purposes of going this going on the
Speaker 2: website of the place where I work me neither wink?
Speaker 1: Yeah exactly.
Speaker 2: I think that the wink defeats the purpose, does it. Yeah?
Speaker 1: No, I just I'm a winker. Okay, Yeah, you know me. Yeah,
Speaker 1: just happened to me. It was totally coincidental.
Speaker 2: So we're jumping into Pizza movie obviously, and this was
Speaker 2: a bit of a last minute pivot. This was not
Speaker 2: hot necessarily high on either of our lists. We had
Speaker 2: expressed it was a backup in the previous episode of the.
Speaker 1: Programmed to us by John Jordan from WAPL whose opinion
Speaker 1: I respect, who I haven't had a chance to talk
Speaker 1: about this film yet because I've been moving a mile
Speaker 1: a minute since I got off the air.
Speaker 2: What did he say specifically about this movie?
Speaker 1: He just he because it wasn't just have you heard
Speaker 1: of this movie? He actually recommended that we watch it.
Speaker 2: And not only did he recommend it, because my desk,
Speaker 2: since our remodel, I am tucked away any ben commonos
Speaker 2: to John Jordan interactions come when I walked past his
Speaker 2: desk and one of us has seen something that we
Speaker 2: want to talk to the other one about. He took
Speaker 2: the time to find me in my cubby hole wow
Speaker 2: to say, have you seen Pizza movie yet? I said no,
Speaker 2: and he oh, oh boy. And I was like, oh, well,
Speaker 2: all right, if that's that's enough of an endorsement for me,
Speaker 2: so so I'm on board. And I kept it kind
Speaker 2: of in the background here. And as you and I
Speaker 2: oftentimes lament, March and April are not necessarily the best
Speaker 2: months for movies.
Speaker 1: Are they the worst?
Speaker 2: Would you say they're the worst?
Speaker 1: There's a little lull after the summer blockbusters, but even
Speaker 1: then I think, like early fall, we get some good.
Speaker 2: Stuff and there's been a recent resurgence, or not resurgence,
Speaker 2: I should say, insurgents of risky horror like R rated
Speaker 2: or name horror that is looking for the to capitalize
Speaker 2: on the remnants of the summer crowd, but not necessarily
Speaker 2: going up against a Marvel, DC or Disney movie. And
Speaker 2: that's kind of September isn't as much of a waste
Speaker 2: of time as it once was, So I'd argue that
Speaker 2: these two months, as well as January are kind of
Speaker 2: where it is absolutely dead. I still think we had
Speaker 2: the worst luck in January so far with even though
Speaker 2: I did enjoy Primates, but Primate was a little touch
Speaker 2: and go, and a Conda was probably.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was bad. I forgot how bad that was.
Speaker 1: Didn't we do send help? Was that in January or
Speaker 1: was that that.
Speaker 2: Was in February? Yeah, because I think that was after
Speaker 2: I got back from Thailand, so I bought us a
Speaker 2: little bit of a respite there. Yeah, exactly. I was
Speaker 2: gone for a couple of weeks. So Pizza Movie I
Speaker 2: think is only our second fore into the streaming service
Speaker 2: other than Happy Gilmore No, we did, oh and What's On?
Speaker 2: It's What's Inside? Yeah, yeah, which is so forgettable that
Speaker 2: I forget we did it exactly. But you know, Happy
Speaker 2: Gilmore Too was fine. I guess I'd argue and this doesn't.
Speaker 1: Say that, by the way, from the feedback I've gotten
Speaker 1: from people who know me and listen to this show,
Speaker 1: that was like one of their most I should say
Speaker 1: most people. A lot of people who have come up
Speaker 1: to me and talked to them about this show. They
Speaker 1: really liked the Happy Gilmore Too podcast that we did.
Speaker 1: Oh really, that was like their favorite. I don't know
Speaker 1: why I have to go back and re listen to it,
Speaker 1: because I don't think it was anything spectacular. Neither one
Speaker 1: of us, like we're drilling home how much we love
Speaker 1: the movie.
Speaker 2: But maybe that was what it was, is that we
Speaker 2: acknowledged it and like to kind of put it in
Speaker 2: perspective here, like without giving the rating, obviously because we
Speaker 2: do that for the end, obviously better than What's Inside.
Speaker 2: Did you have more or less fun watching Pizza Movie
Speaker 2: than you did watching Happy it's a hard question to answer. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's a hard question to answer because Happy We're Two
Speaker 2: left a lot to be desired. So did Pizza Movie.
Speaker 2: And I found myself keep telling me.
Speaker 1: Really, Pizza Movie left a lot to be desired for you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you and I disagree there. Really I didn't love it, Okay, okay,
Speaker 1: but like my expectations going in, sure we're so low.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, and I laughed, I'm not going to be
Speaker 2: crapping on this movie at all, but I just I've
Speaker 2: got some some notes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like, I think I had more enjoyment watching
Speaker 1: Happy Gilmore too, even though I didn't like the movie
Speaker 1: because of the nostalgic as exactly, you know exactly with
Speaker 1: this it was kind of like a throwaway, one off
Speaker 1: type thing where this is not really meant for my generation.
Speaker 2: And and and and you know the other thing I'll
Speaker 2: say about this too. Who were the stars of this film?
Speaker 2: Sean Giabroni, who was the main character on The Goldbergs
Speaker 2: on ABC, which just went off the air. I think
Speaker 2: it's probably about off the air almost ten years now,
Speaker 2: maybe not quite ten.
Speaker 1: But that was a mainstay on weeknight comedy on broadcast TV,
Speaker 1: and then Gayton, Madarazzo, Matizarro, Matdrazo, Madrazo. Excuse me, I
Speaker 1: apologized to Italians everywhere he was there. You go, he
Speaker 1: was on Stranger Things. Oh, which, by the way, I
Speaker 1: should bring this up. One of my guys I work
Speaker 1: with at my other job, they celebrated Greek Easter this
Speaker 1: past weekend. Yeah do you do that?
Speaker 2: Really?
Speaker 1: Yep? What did you do? Oh?
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, I'm not in Pittsburgh anymore, so I
Speaker 2: just I just pissed around. But like, if I were
Speaker 2: in Pittsburgh, I'd go to my Yaya's house and I'd
Speaker 2: have lamb and we'd crack eggs and we'd do all
Speaker 2: the stuff. So they guys do just later.
Speaker 1: Right, Okay, So they they bought a spit like at
Speaker 1: we don't that far and they bought a whole lamb.
Speaker 1: It was the first time they've ever done it. Kevi
Speaker 1: and his brothers. They decided. I saw the picture. I
Speaker 1: love that.
Speaker 2: I wish they invited me.
Speaker 1: I would have been there, for they live in Manhattan.
Speaker 2: So still, you might as well just go to Pits.
Speaker 2: I realized the show is called off Topics, So I'm
Speaker 2: going to use this opportunity here to any of the
Speaker 2: of the Orthodox listeners.
Speaker 1: Orthodocists also do it.
Speaker 2: There's a handful to do the same thing, but like
Speaker 2: it's the only time when people cook lamb is on Easter,
Speaker 2: and there was nothing worse to be, like, Oh, yeah,
Speaker 2: go into the I guess it's time for lamb. And
Speaker 2: you get there and she pulls out the ham and
Speaker 2: you're like, oh, I guess there's always guess, there's always
Speaker 2: next year. Nothing more depressing than not getting lamb on.
Speaker 1: I cannot remember the last time I had lamb.
Speaker 2: I don't.
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure I have had it at some point. Oh,
Speaker 1: it's delicious, but yeah, I remember, Like the red meat.
Speaker 1: I think it's like the healthiest kind for you or something.
Speaker 2: Didn't realize the red meat, Yeah, I guess it is. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and it's apparently not nearly as bad for you was
Speaker 2: traditional red meat. Can't back that up. Don't quote me
Speaker 2: on it.
Speaker 1: But uh, how does it compare to mutton, because that
Speaker 1: isn't mutton, the full the meat of the full grown sheep.
Speaker 2: Oh I don't know that. I don't know you were.
Speaker 2: Oh no, because the Lord would not the Lord would
Speaker 2: not let that go. It's got to be a lamp.
Speaker 2: But exactly, and you want to talk some hippie dippy shit,
Speaker 2: Greek Easter is either the same day as your Easter,
Speaker 2: one week later, two weeks later, or six weeks later,
Speaker 2: and it all depends on the full moon. That's bizarre.
Speaker 2: There you go, But technically it's also orthodox because this
Speaker 2: was the original definition. So the Easter that everyone else
Speaker 2: celebrates is actually the newer way.
Speaker 1: Of doing it.
Speaker 2: Ah, Okay, you're welcome for that.
Speaker 1: We appreciate it, Ben, thank you. Yeah.
Speaker 2: But in any event, what was his name, Mado?
Speaker 1: He was on Stranger Things, right, So this is an
Speaker 1: opportunity for these guys who sort of grew up in
Speaker 1: front of the camera to kind of stretch their legs
Speaker 1: and do like more of an adult themed type, not
Speaker 1: adult team, but like twenties, you know, people in their twenties.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like stoner comedy with what it was.
Speaker 1: And if you look at some of the other people,
Speaker 1: Lulu Wilson, who was sort of the female lead and
Speaker 1: I hesitate to use the term lead because he wasn't
Speaker 1: a lead. She was more of a supporting character in this,
Speaker 1: but she was in a bus. She was actually in
Speaker 1: some some other horror stuff.
Speaker 2: She was in Becky, Yeah, Becky fantastic.
Speaker 1: And she was also going to be in All was
Speaker 1: a marvel thing. And I can't remember which one Doctor Strange.
Speaker 1: She was in Doctor Strange, the New Doctor Strange, the Multise.
Speaker 1: They cut her scene so she actually wasn't in it,
Speaker 1: but she did film the scene for them. And then
Speaker 1: you hit and I can't remember who the other woman
Speaker 1: was that that Sean Giebro, thank you. She did some
Speaker 1: Disney stuff back in the day. She was on the
Speaker 1: Doogie Howser MD, not spin off but sort of like remake. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and it was like Hawaiian like she was like the
Speaker 1: Hawaiian Doogie Howser or whatever.
Speaker 2: And she was in twenty twenty fours Carved. If you're
Speaker 2: looking for.
Speaker 1: I'm not familiar.
Speaker 2: This was this horror. Yeah, I'm assuming from the game. Yeah.
Speaker 2: It was basically an updated Pumpkinhead type of movie. I
Speaker 2: don't even know pumpkin Head. Oh that's like from the eighties.
Speaker 2: But that's not diverge too far off here, but but.
Speaker 1: That would to bring it back to my original point.
Speaker 2: This was not made for us.
Speaker 1: No, these are characters are excuse me, these are actors
Speaker 1: that are much younger than us that are playing much
Speaker 1: younger characters. This is set in college, in early college,
Speaker 1: right like first or second year of college.
Speaker 2: That's how it seems like it's And I have described
Speaker 2: it to several people in my personal life. I said,
Speaker 2: you know, if I had seen this when I were nineteen,
Speaker 2: I probably would have thought it was one of the
Speaker 2: funniest things I've ever seen in my life. But I
Speaker 2: saw it when I was thirty eight, so I'm looking
Speaker 2: at it through a thirty eight year old's perspective. The
Speaker 2: reason I picked nineteen is I was nineteen when super
Speaker 2: Bad came out, and I thought that was one of
Speaker 2: the funniest things that ever came out. Now, I would
Speaker 2: argue that that transcends ages a little better than this
Speaker 2: movie does.
Speaker 1: One hundred percent, because I don't know when it's come
Speaker 1: out twenty seven, twenty oh seven, So I was forty. No,
Speaker 1: I wasn't forty. I was twenty eight. Yeah, I came
Speaker 1: out and I thought it was hilarious. I thought it
Speaker 1: was hilarious when I was thirty eight, and I'm forty
Speaker 1: six now it's still hilarious. I love it, you know,
Speaker 1: It's great. Jonah Hill was on SNL when Jack Black
Speaker 1: had the he got inducted into the Five Timers Club
Speaker 1: or whatever. Sure, by the way, go back and look
Speaker 1: at that Ben.
Speaker 2: He is on something. His mouth is a gape the
Speaker 2: entire time.
Speaker 1: Doubt it, it was really and he looked thin again,
Speaker 1: so like it's like he's like the new Oprah Winfrey.
Speaker 1: He's fat, he's thin, he's fat, he's thin. But he
Speaker 1: said on there he's like, oh yeah, I was just
Speaker 1: filming or writing the script for super Bad too, and
Speaker 1: everybody went crazy like oh yeah, you know, and he's
Speaker 1: like April Fools or something like that, which sucked because
Speaker 1: it would have been great.
Speaker 2: But I'd argue what that movie has that this one's
Speaker 2: missing when you watch super Bad. When I saw I
Speaker 2: think I might have brought this up on the podcast
Speaker 2: before I watched in theaters when I was nineteen and
Speaker 2: I was the person trying to sneak booze because I
Speaker 2: couldn't buy legally. But then you go back and watch
Speaker 2: the movie when you're twenty eight, and you see like
Speaker 2: the guy working at the liquor store who's like, I
Speaker 2: hate my fucking life and like all those people and
Speaker 2: like as someone who really hadn't figured crap out by
Speaker 2: his twenties. I was sitting there like, yeah, yeah, I
Speaker 2: kind of relate more to the to the liquor store,
Speaker 2: to the people go into the house party, to the
Speaker 2: like all these other characters that kind of are reflective
Speaker 2: around these high school students, and so they have both
Speaker 2: sides met, so you can kind of enjoy it, and
Speaker 2: then you could argue. I think if I watched it now,
Speaker 2: I might even be more like Seth Rogan or Bill
Speaker 2: Hayter trying to find fun in my now fully adult life,
Speaker 2: and like it covers all the different bases of life,
Speaker 2: whereas this is very There are no characters for anybody
Speaker 2: over the age of twenty two in this movie.
Speaker 1: Exactly did you notice? You and I talked about this?
Speaker 1: Daniel Radcliffe voiced these firefly Yeah. Do you know who
Speaker 1: voiced the Snackatron, the pizza delivery robot.
Speaker 2: I think if you didn't tell me this, John Jordan did,
Speaker 2: But it's already it's Josh Gadd right, Well, it's.
Speaker 1: A good guess it's another large actor. Bobby moynihan, a
Speaker 1: former SNL cast member, as well. Sarah Sherman shut to
Speaker 1: a current SNL cast member, and we said Britannic I
Speaker 1: believe is the official director's name. It's two guys who
Speaker 1: combined their names to come up with this director. You know,
Speaker 1: it's like, oh sure, no, yeah, but they wrote on
Speaker 1: SNL from in the twenty sixteen to twenty those.
Speaker 2: Guys always like the SNL people always stick together, you know, like.
Speaker 1: Does seem like it because they're always trying to give
Speaker 1: each other work.
Speaker 2: For sure.
Speaker 1: I was gonna point this out getting off topic again.
Speaker 1: So I visited my uncle who lives in San Francisco
Speaker 1: Bay area. This would have been I don't know how
Speaker 1: many years ago now, at least fifteen, probably twenty, and
Speaker 1: we are having dinner. I don't know why we had it.
Speaker 1: Like I, when I go somewhere, you're probably the same
Speaker 1: way I want to go somewhere where I, you know,
Speaker 1: experience something local. Sure, we went to like Chili's, yeah,
Speaker 1: which was really annoying to me. But what I noticed
Speaker 1: when we were there were sitting there and there's these
Speaker 1: these people in there, kids probably my age, like twenty
Speaker 1: twenty five, nobody older than thirty.
Speaker 2: But they're all like partying in the bar.
Speaker 1: Area of Chili's and like slamming back shots and stuff,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, and I said to my uncle, I'm like,
Speaker 1: what's going on here? Is Chili's like the big bar
Speaker 1: that people And he said, you know, we don't really
Speaker 1: have because he's from Wisconsin River and he's like, we
Speaker 1: do only have bars here, like where people just go
Speaker 1: out and pound or you know, like this is the bar.
Speaker 1: And I always thought, well, I'm sure there's some exceptions
Speaker 1: to that. But then I was watching super Bad the
Speaker 1: first time I saw it, and I'm like, why are
Speaker 1: all these people who are clearly over the age of
Speaker 1: twenty one, why are they all congregating at a house party?
Speaker 2: You know?
Speaker 1: And then I remember my uncle said, like, we've been
Speaker 1: in a bar, So then it made sense that all
Speaker 1: these because that was always kind of a weird thing
Speaker 1: for me when I was watching super Bad. Is this
Speaker 1: is the perfect time for these people, especially people who
Speaker 1: get drunk and fight that you go to bars for that,
Speaker 1: you don't go to somebody's house.
Speaker 2: Uh see, maybe I'm just wired differently, but I always
Speaker 2: enjoyed the house party esthetic more than the bar aesthetic,
Speaker 2: Like sign me up to go to someone's house have
Speaker 2: a keg. There may be or at least a whole
Speaker 2: bunch of booze. I have always found that because what's
Speaker 2: funny is, especially with my group of friends that I
Speaker 2: grew up with, I'd always joke and like we complained
Speaker 2: about how many people are at a bar or the
Speaker 2: aesthetic of the bar, and then none of us talk
Speaker 2: to anybody else that wasn't in the group anywhere. Why
Speaker 2: don't we just buy booze for cheaper and go have
Speaker 2: fun with the people that we know that we have
Speaker 2: fun with, and then if we really want to go
Speaker 2: experience life, then go out after the fact. And like
Speaker 2: that's always been my attitude.
Speaker 1: But I think the thing is with my friends and
Speaker 1: maybe because we're all sloppy pigs, nobody wants to host.
Speaker 1: Oh that's fair, you know what I mean, Like, you
Speaker 1: go to a bar, you don't have to wipe your
Speaker 1: feet and to your gusting and whatever, and to your point.
Speaker 2: I moved back to my dad's house for my twenty bean,
Speaker 2: twenty five and part of twenty six. I lived in
Speaker 2: downtown Pittsburgh proper right after college because life was still affordable.
Speaker 2: Then then I decided I wanted to save up to
Speaker 2: buy my duplex, so I moved home for about a
Speaker 2: year and a half and then I moved back to
Speaker 2: the city and during that year and a half, Chili's
Speaker 2: was our spot. We would go to Chili's all the
Speaker 2: time and just get whacked. The bartenders loved us when
Speaker 2: they'd see us walk in, like it was like, Oh,
Speaker 2: it's gonna be one of those kind of thursdays.
Speaker 1: Huh right, yes, yes it is. Let's get this done.
Speaker 1: The uh the okay. So getting back to ye Sorr, well.
Speaker 2: No, because it's these are the kind of stories that
Speaker 2: are because this is the vibe the movie goes for,
Speaker 2: is these kind of stories when you're still trying to
Speaker 2: figure life out when you really don't have And I'm
Speaker 2: gonna be honest with you, Dustin whatever the hell's name was,
Speaker 2: We're never gonna say, right, Gaton Mattarazo, Yeah, let's be real.
Speaker 2: He wanted to be Jonah Hill in this movie. He
Speaker 2: was trying to channel Jonah Hill in this movie. And
Speaker 2: he is not Jonah Like, that's not the character that
Speaker 2: he can play. I'll be real. I had issues with
Speaker 2: both of the lead casts casting. I didn't like either
Speaker 2: one of them.
Speaker 1: Oh, I could see Sean BRONI because he was kind
Speaker 1: of this nerdy you know, he's this nerdy kind of
Speaker 1: looking at it might have been funnier.
Speaker 2: Did you watch The Goldbergs at all? No, I mean
Speaker 2: he was even nerdier on that show. I'm sure, I'm sure,
Speaker 2: but even the main ra which Jack Martin.
Speaker 1: Wait, would you how would you compare Sean gia Berney's
Speaker 1: character to Michael Sarah's character.
Speaker 2: Michael Sarah was and maybe I'm just biased, but Michael
Speaker 2: Sarah was infinitely more classic. There's not anything because Michael
Speaker 2: Sarah's a unique cat, right, He's got the weird voice,
Speaker 2: he's got the weird mannerisms. Both of these people I
Speaker 2: think benefited from a funny script that could have been
Speaker 2: funnier if different people were there cast. Take Jim Carrey
Speaker 2: out of Dumb and Dumber and all the jokes are
Speaker 2: still there, but it's not the same movie. And sometimes
Speaker 2: I just feel like you can tell, like, ah, this
Speaker 2: movie actually could have been better if it had been
Speaker 2: cast better. And I realize you're not going to get
Speaker 2: a list actors to do this kind of movie. You're
Speaker 2: going to get people trying to establish themselves, right, But
Speaker 2: to me, I think it was funny writing that was
Speaker 2: done well, it's not like I was like, I can
Speaker 2: tell they're reading the script, but it's not. It could
Speaker 2: have been brought up to the m degree. The RA
Speaker 2: Jack Martin would scream his his le I'm like, you know,
Speaker 2: these lines could have been funny if they were delivered
Speaker 2: in a different way.
Speaker 1: The Ra was too soft for me, like the character
Speaker 1: they cast or the actor they cast to play him,
Speaker 1: like it should have been more of a Do you
Speaker 1: remember Bottle Rocket at all? The movie came out in
Speaker 1: the late eighties. It was Wes Anderson's basically his first thing,
Speaker 1: and uh, all three of the Wilson's were in it,
Speaker 1: Luke Wilson, Owen Wilson, and Andrew Wilson, who I didn't
Speaker 1: even know that was a personactly. Yeah, and he's like
Speaker 1: this total kind of like sorry Andrew hard ass.
Speaker 2: In that movie and he doesn't really do much you
Speaker 2: know after that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you needed some sort of like militant you know,
Speaker 1: guy you know, with with with with some sort of
Speaker 1: like four H not four H but you know, like
Speaker 1: like military aspirations, like you needed that for the RA
Speaker 1: to lead this. Like this guy was was just he
Speaker 1: was too soft of a of a of a man too.
Speaker 2: I will say, you picked up on the obvious and
Speaker 2: glorious bastard's reference.
Speaker 1: What was it?
Speaker 2: What was it when he uh he catches the one kid?
Speaker 2: I think it was like a young black kid who
Speaker 2: hid some drugs, like in a microwave or something. And
Speaker 2: they just did the first scene from Glorious Drugs and
Speaker 2: you see him cry like one tier all he's doing
Speaker 2: and it was almost line for line, and I was like,
Speaker 2: this is funny. I almost think it would have been
Speaker 2: better if they just had the ra do like the
Speaker 2: drill sergeant in uh uh a full metal jacket?
Speaker 1: Are m?
Speaker 2: Yeah, just do these famous scenes because the scenes that
Speaker 2: you're letting him improv do it, he's just screaming it.
Speaker 2: And I had a ninth grade hit English teacher who
Speaker 2: said to me when we were watching the Leonardo DiCaprio
Speaker 2: Romeo and Juliette movie where he's screaming the lyrics and
Speaker 2: he looks at the glass, he goes, you know, screaming
Speaker 2: the lines. He said, screaming your lines does not make
Speaker 2: you a good actor. And I was I found myself
Speaker 2: channeling mister Hubert while I was watching this ra do
Speaker 2: the lines. I didn't really find that anybody was cast
Speaker 2: in a particular outside of Peyton Elizabeth Lee. I thought
Speaker 2: she was perfectly cast. Everybody else I was like.
Speaker 1: Eh, so let me ask you this, and this is
Speaker 1: an unfair question. Who would you have liked to see?
Speaker 1: What actors would you have liked to see in the
Speaker 1: in these roles in the two main one, in the
Speaker 1: three main Folt essentially God, because I have a feeling
Speaker 1: whoever you're going.
Speaker 2: To say is more contemporary to my youth. Yeah, probably probably,
Speaker 2: And I'm interested because like, uh, Gayton Monarazzo does the
Speaker 2: painted fingernails thing, which is much more a gen Z thing.
Speaker 2: I was not off put by it in any stretch
Speaker 2: of the imagination. But that's obviously a younger era type
Speaker 2: of deal with Kayleb Williams doing it and all that
Speaker 2: jazz that they very clearly were kind of embodying this,
Speaker 2: this gen Z take on what I was used to
Speaker 2: for the millennial take. Whatever the situation is. And maybe
Speaker 2: that is it. That it's just as I often state
Speaker 2: on Outside the Box, humor evolves, and maybe it is evolving,
Speaker 2: not to the point where I hate it. Obviously I
Speaker 2: laughed quite a bit at type points to this movie,
Speaker 2: but again I credit the writing and not the acting
Speaker 2: all that. So I don't know who I would put
Speaker 2: in these roles because I can't see anything other than
Speaker 2: this generation's super bad, which then obviously I can't put.
Speaker 1: You can't put those guys back.
Speaker 2: Because they're too old exactly, And so I don't know
Speaker 2: who young people would be that I would want to
Speaker 2: see in those roles. I just know that the way,
Speaker 2: at least in which that I saw them, I was like, man,
Speaker 2: there's a really funny script here that it just feels
Speaker 2: like they don't have. I don't know if it's a
Speaker 2: lack of creativity or acting chops or what it is.
Speaker 2: It's just like they can't bring this. Like you know,
Speaker 2: in Dumb and Dumber, they were like, eat the spicy
Speaker 2: peppers in the hamburger and then do whatever you see
Speaker 2: fit and Jim Carrey like creates a fountain and sticks
Speaker 2: his face in front of it. And I don't think
Speaker 2: most people would have thought to do that, and that
Speaker 2: scene still would have been funny, you know what I mean,
Speaker 2: It still have had those elements, But there's something that
Speaker 2: certain people can do to take to the next level.
Speaker 2: I think there was a really funny idea here. I
Speaker 2: think that's what I'm frustrated about, is it was a
Speaker 2: really funny idea that it just there were moments that
Speaker 2: I was just like, ah, better, better suited people would
Speaker 2: have really ate this up.
Speaker 1: We we we I think what we have to be
Speaker 1: careful of here when we talk about this. And I
Speaker 1: don't necessarily disagree with you. Physical comedy is such a
Speaker 1: difficult thing to pull off, like and and there's three
Speaker 1: people that come to mind, and maybe the third one
Speaker 1: shouldn't come to mind, but it does. Jim Carrey, Chris Marley,
Speaker 1: and Melissa McCarthy. For me, there's the other one that
Speaker 1: that comes up, and I think she's tremendous. I think
Speaker 1: you could put Zach gallifan Akis in that.
Speaker 2: I think Jimmy Chase kind of lived in that a
Speaker 2: little bit. I didn't personally enjoy it. He was more
Speaker 2: like deadpan comedy rather than what he'd like. I step
Speaker 2: on this thing and I fall down Like that was
Speaker 2: quite a bit of a stick.
Speaker 1: The galifan Akis, I think, is kind of transitioning away
Speaker 1: from that.
Speaker 2: Although he's in this. Did you see this new thing?
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's on Prime or who or
Speaker 1: whatever about a farm thing that he's working on. It
Speaker 1: looked very bizarre comedy drama. Well, I think it's a comedy,
Speaker 1: but it like it's kind of like it's very between
Speaker 1: two ferns.
Speaker 2: S Oh wow, So look it up if you get
Speaker 2: a chance.
Speaker 1: I'm not going to check it out, but whatever, So
Speaker 1: I think it's hard to pull off, and I think
Speaker 1: you would have needed you know, we come we keep using.
Speaker 2: The the Jim Carrey example from Dumb and Dumber.
Speaker 1: You could pick out, you know, any of his comedic
Speaker 1: movies in the nineties or early two thousands, that that's such
Speaker 1: a difficult thing to find, and so like, I don't
Speaker 1: we could have listed off, you know, dozens of actors
Speaker 1: that could have been in this situation. I don't know
Speaker 1: if it would have been any better because we're talking
Speaker 1: about rarefied air with what he's able to do in
Speaker 1: front of the camera right that. I just think most
Speaker 1: actors cannot pull off. And I mentioned a few of them.
Speaker 1: I really think that's a very short.
Speaker 2: List put so okay, But then to that point, like, now,
Speaker 2: this is interesting because had I not been texted by
Speaker 2: a local government official, way, the way I was going
Speaker 2: to start this show was to ask you, what, in
Speaker 2: your mind is your favorite college humor movie, because obviously
Speaker 2: Animal House set the standard, and there's a billion you got,
Speaker 2: you got Van Wilder, You've got the the American Pie movies.
Speaker 2: My favorite as a kid, which I probably was watching
Speaker 2: it too young, was road Trip. Outside of Tom Green,
Speaker 2: who what is physical comedy embodied a lot of those guys.
Speaker 2: You're Sean Williams, Scott's You're whatever, that main I don't
Speaker 2: know any of the actors, the main guy. Oh and
Speaker 2: then DJ DJ Qualls guy. Yeah, like not any of
Speaker 2: them really chewed up the scenery, but their chemistry, the
Speaker 2: way they one another, it was perfect. Like it was
Speaker 2: so well done. These guys I could tell, like to
Speaker 2: go back to Dumb and Dumber. You almost forget that
Speaker 2: when the cameras stopped rolling that Jim Carrey and Jeff
Speaker 2: Daniels aren't best friends in real life and they're not
Speaker 2: going to hang out when when work has done that day.
Speaker 2: I did not get that vibe with this two. And
Speaker 2: maybe it's because I'm an older and cynical man and
Speaker 2: I'm talking about movies that I saw as a child.
Speaker 2: And it was easier to lose yourself in it with
Speaker 2: these ways, and I am I'm acknowledging that, but I
Speaker 2: also do think that it was better made. And I
Speaker 2: think my main frustration to keep hammering at home is
Speaker 2: there's a funny idea here, there's a really good idea.
Speaker 1: I think these guys are the directors and the writers
Speaker 1: of this film.
Speaker 2: Dave, Harold and Kumar.
Speaker 1: We haven't even touched. Yeah, well, I was gonna ask
Speaker 1: you about this, so so I think like the comparison
Speaker 1: between Pizza Movie and the Harold and Kumar Is it.
Speaker 2: A trilogy or is ittube trilogy?
Speaker 1: Yes, I get some of the comparisons, and this one
Speaker 1: was so absurdist and it was so far out there
Speaker 1: that it kind of lost me a little bit. I
Speaker 1: mentioned how these guys had experience writing for us, and
Speaker 1: now they also did their own sketch comedy on YouTube,
Speaker 1: you know before they sort of like, I don't want
Speaker 1: to say, hit it big, but got their big break whatever.
Speaker 1: I felt like this was a totally stitch together sketch
Speaker 1: comedy movie where there's yeah, remember the Kentucky Fried movie
Speaker 1: from like the midiages. Yeah, totally reminded me of like,
Speaker 1: I kept harkening back to the Kentucky Fried movie with this,
Speaker 1: with all these like weird little sketches that somehow would
Speaker 1: tie into the next scene, sometimes cleanly, sometimes not so cleanly.
Speaker 1: And I appreciated the callbacks that we got to in
Speaker 1: the payoffs that we got to later on in the
Speaker 1: movie before it ended. You know, the elevator thing, the
Speaker 1: whole magician thing, right, the the the hispanic guy thing, right,
Speaker 1: So there was that was cool like that. I appreciated that.
Speaker 1: But some of the stuff like if you say a
Speaker 1: bad word, your head explodes as one of the stages
Speaker 1: of this, I mean that that makes no sense.
Speaker 2: And it just kept it was quite literally, it was
Speaker 2: like happy It was like groundhog Day. It was like
Speaker 2: Happy death Day was it would literally like I did
Speaker 2: appreciate that because I was anticipating Oh.
Speaker 1: And then and then you know what else, Sorry, You're good.
Speaker 1: Twenty one Jump Street hit like and twenty two Jump Street.
Speaker 1: I believe they had the stages of the drugs laid
Speaker 1: out in the same way that this film absolutely and
Speaker 1: this one again took it a twenty one Jump Street
Speaker 1: false sense of confidence. Well, yeah, obviously that's gonna come
Speaker 1: with truck. It's in here, and then this one you
Speaker 1: have to eat pizza or you die. Make the baby
Speaker 1: like it, make the baby less, make the baby I mean, what.
Speaker 2: The hell is that?
Speaker 1: That killed me? That was so good?
Speaker 2: And see, I thought we might write it run into
Speaker 2: this And I'm gonna have to be careful about how
Speaker 2: I talk about this on the airwaves, but let's just
Speaker 2: say you and I had different experiences in our twenties,
Speaker 2: and there are elements of this that I was like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 2: I understand what they went through in their real life
Speaker 2: that inspired this scene and how they got here. And
Speaker 2: I'm sitting like, I wonder what Bulky's thinking about this
Speaker 2: right now, And because like to make the baby like it.
Speaker 2: There's a couple of moments where I laughed out loud
Speaker 2: watching this movie by myself, and make the Baby like It.
Speaker 2: It wasn't the actual scene. It was when they're getting
Speaker 2: the rundown of all the all the different stages. In
Speaker 2: the first stage, you was the preamble is to make
Speaker 2: the baby like Yeah. It was just so absurdest and
Speaker 2: I appreciated because I was expecting, you know me, even
Speaker 2: before the movie starts, I'm like, I bet I know
Speaker 2: how this movie ends, and I was into say, right, well,
Speaker 2: that's what I was gonna say. I'm glad they didn't
Speaker 2: do it. So I'm like, I bet you they're never
Speaker 2: even gonna leave their apartment and everything that happens is
Speaker 2: going to be in their head. It's gonna turn out
Speaker 2: and like no, like the stuff that is happening is
Speaker 2: really happening in the movie. But then when you do that,
Speaker 2: it makes some of the other stuff just make absolutely
Speaker 2: no sense. And you can't pick apart of a movie
Speaker 2: like this. But at the same time, if you're gonna
Speaker 2: have rules and then the rules only make sense, some
Speaker 2: of the times, it does get distracting, and this movie
Speaker 2: suffered from that quite a bit. Specifically with the We're
Speaker 2: all one scene. I'm like, I don't understand how any
Speaker 2: of this is happening. Yeah, yeah, And it was like
Speaker 2: it was funny enough, and I'm sitting there, I'm like,
Speaker 2: you know, in the writer's room, wasn't somebody like we
Speaker 2: could probably think of a better fifth third act, fifth
Speaker 2: fifth stage than what we're doing here, Like that was
Speaker 2: a that was the thought that I was thinking while
Speaker 2: watching this movie. But let's just say there were moments
Speaker 2: that I was like, oh, yeah, I get that.
Speaker 1: I had moments like I definitely laughed out loud several times,
Speaker 1: but I think the like as the movie went on,
Speaker 1: I laughed less.
Speaker 2: Yes, I was gonna say that it runs out of
Speaker 2: steam very quickly.
Speaker 1: There there is a semi and I think you know
Speaker 1: what I'm talking about. There is a semi interesting twist,
Speaker 1: not even at a semi.
Speaker 2: There was an.
Speaker 1: Interesting twist where they said if you don't if it
Speaker 1: what was it, if you overdose on this, you'll find
Speaker 1: out the true harsh.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that really that recaptured my attention that moment, Yeah,
Speaker 2: where you find the real truth or whatever it is?
Speaker 1: Right. So so then when as weird as the audience
Speaker 1: is finding out the truth along with the character or whatever,
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, this is.
Speaker 2: A cool twist. Let's see where this goes.
Speaker 1: And and I'm like, you know what, of course the
Speaker 1: two internet sketch guys are gonna put something like this
Speaker 1: in their film, you know what I mean?
Speaker 2: Like it just it was it. It made perfect sense
Speaker 2: at the time. That was very cool, and I thought
Speaker 2: it was a real conversation that they were having. Like
Speaker 2: I feel like, let's just put this book, like, let's
Speaker 2: just do this, and like I loved it.
Speaker 1: I loved structurally and and you know, I agree with
Speaker 1: you on the script, you know, like like everything all
Speaker 1: the elements were here. Yeah, and and I think, now
Speaker 1: let me throw this at you, and you're probably gonna agree.
Speaker 1: Maybe you won't agree with me, but you're you're probably
Speaker 1: gonna you should at least see my point. These are
Speaker 1: two guys writers, uh, two directors that sort of have
Speaker 1: I don't know how you want to say it. This
Speaker 1: was like their first big opportunity to do something significant
Speaker 1: with a film, right, So what do you do in
Speaker 1: that you don't want to screw it up? Right?
Speaker 2: Well, let's find the target audio and really nailed that down.
Speaker 2: Who are the two main actors?
Speaker 1: A dude who was on this ABC comedy that I
Speaker 1: think a lot of people you know this age, you
Speaker 1: know in the early twenties, mid twenties, probably grew up
Speaker 1: watching We're very familiar with big bankable guy who was
Speaker 1: part of a television a broadcast television show that I
Speaker 1: think hit two hundred episodes.
Speaker 2: That's significant. Wow, Okay. And then the other guy is
Speaker 2: from one of the biggest phenoms outside of the last season.
Speaker 1: I mean, I would say, not only for that age group,
Speaker 1: for everybody. Yeah, everybody was talking. Yes, So you have
Speaker 1: an opportunity to get those two guys. Yeah, maybe it's
Speaker 1: not the perfect fit. Yeah, maybe they're not gonna have
Speaker 1: great chemistry. But if you have the opportunity to bring
Speaker 1: those guys into your very first film, you're gonna do
Speaker 1: it every single time. And it's and it was an
Speaker 1: easy way to sell it to Hulu or Disney or whoever.
Speaker 1: I assume Disney owns Hulu, right, Yeah, Yeah, probably an
Speaker 1: easy way to sell it to Disney. We have these
Speaker 1: two bankable stars, and yes, it's gonna be obserdist but
Speaker 1: this is gonna get a lot of eyes. And you
Speaker 1: know what, it worked. It wasn't perfect, but for your
Speaker 1: first foray into this where you're trying to strablish establish
Speaker 1: more Hollywood cred, this is a good way to do it. Yeah.
Speaker 2: And maybe, like you're just kind of highlighting a little
Speaker 2: bit to the extent that I kind of lost touch
Speaker 2: with some things in life, because, like you tell me,
Speaker 2: is the goldbergs of that era relevant relative to Seinfeld
Speaker 2: or Friends. No, it's not. It's not at that level.
Speaker 1: Okay, but you're talking about you can't I mean not
Speaker 1: to sound like a douche here, but you can't really
Speaker 1: compare the two because when Seinfeld and friends were crushing
Speaker 1: it on primetime.
Speaker 2: There weren't as many options. There's no streaming service, there
Speaker 2: was no Internet. But I guess the reason I asked
Speaker 2: the question is because, yeah, I've never seen the show,
Speaker 2: But would that be like somebody in the nineties being like,
Speaker 2: who's this Matthew Perry guy? And why did they partner
Speaker 2: him with Bruce Willis in this the whole nine? Was
Speaker 2: anybody asking that I'm asking because me saying this, Sean,
Speaker 2: how do you say his name? Is me being like
Speaker 2: this guy wasn't funny because I never watched the show,
Speaker 2: and like, there it might just highlight a blind spot
Speaker 2: for me. This show two hundred episodes. That's more than
Speaker 2: Community or Arrested Development thought, you know what I mean,
Speaker 2: And so like, that's a big show, and so am
Speaker 2: I the person who's maybe out of touch with this guy?
Speaker 2: Is what I'm kind of coming to this conversation.
Speaker 1: But I mean, not that, and I know this wasn't
Speaker 1: your point and it's kind of a straw man argument,
Speaker 1: but Bruce Willis is a bona fide movie star, like
Speaker 1: if they would have had a bona fide movie star
Speaker 1: playing opposite You know, I don't know who you put
Speaker 1: in that. Even Kieran Culking is too old. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: trying to I don't know, yeah exactly. Maybe I'm just
Speaker 1: getting out of touch for that. And this was never
Speaker 1: in theaters, you know, it was so but.
Speaker 2: Even that's becoming. Matt Damon and Ben Affleck did a
Speaker 2: movie that went straight to riffles. Have you watched? I
Speaker 2: was just gonna ask you seen it yet? I will
Speaker 2: see it? We maybe we should do that for another story.
Speaker 2: We could.
Speaker 1: However, I have wiki did so I know what happens,
Speaker 1: but I'd still be willing to do it because there
Speaker 1: it's all about I absolutely am uh do you know
Speaker 1: the plot?
Speaker 2: It's like, isn't it like a hest thing? It is?
Speaker 1: And it's like there's cops involved and drug dealers, but
Speaker 1: then there's dirty cops, and then you don't know who's
Speaker 1: dirty and who's clean and well departed. Okay, yes, but
Speaker 1: after reading the wiki entry on the rip, I'm still
Speaker 1: not one hundred percent sure I know what happened. But
Speaker 1: but but departed. I mean it's it's pretty cut and drive,
Speaker 1: like who's who's good, Who's actually who does that's legit?
Speaker 1: But yeah, so I guess my main issue with it
Speaker 1: is the casting. Like I really don't have much to
Speaker 1: say more about. Well, let's let's put a bowl on
Speaker 1: the Harold and Kumar thing. Is that an apt comparison?
Speaker 2: I think it was because actually, I'm glad you bring
Speaker 2: that up, because I wanted to bring it to Harold
Speaker 2: and Kumar and keep the Happy Gilmore Too conversation in here,
Speaker 2: because you essentially were saying this felt like a strung
Speaker 2: together bit of bits, and I'd argue Happy Gilmore Too
Speaker 2: was a strung together movie of cameos. It's like, here's
Speaker 2: the scene that has Eminem, here's the scene that has
Speaker 2: this famous golfer, here's the scene that has this guy
Speaker 2: from the first movie, And there was just a plot
Speaker 2: to justify all of these random things happening. I would
Speaker 2: argue this felt much more like a movie than that did.
Speaker 2: Like I feel like there was an A to B.
Speaker 2: There was character growth. You found out some things about
Speaker 2: the people as the plot developed, You found out there
Speaker 2: were more connections between the characters and you realize, like
Speaker 2: I said, there was a lot that kind of tied
Speaker 2: this movie in. You highlighted the payoffs with the elevator
Speaker 2: scene and certain recurring jokes that happened, and they even
Speaker 2: did the non linear storytelling where the main character is
Speaker 2: hated at the beginning of the movie and you have
Speaker 2: no idea really why. And that is also one of
Speaker 2: the hardest times I laughed is when they were at
Speaker 2: the football party and every time a football player talked,
Speaker 2: I'm not going to ruin it, but it's just every
Speaker 2: time one of.
Speaker 1: Them even not well okay, yeah what they what they say? Yeah,
Speaker 1: but everybody hates them like football players, other students, everybody
Speaker 1: hates us.
Speaker 2: In the second or third Harold and Kumar movie, well,
Speaker 2: those are very forgettable for me. You could be right, Yes,
Speaker 2: that's my point is that I'd argue it wasn't as
Speaker 2: good as the first one. But again I also saw
Speaker 2: Harold and Kumar in my you know, young and dumb days.
Speaker 1: But the other aspect with Harold and Kumar, and and
Speaker 1: this is probably the problem I have with it. Harold
Speaker 1: and Kumar, the goal is something that we can identify
Speaker 1: with a bunch of well, I say, we as the public. Yeah,
Speaker 1: what do you call that? I don't know what you're
Speaker 1: going for?
Speaker 2: You know where?
Speaker 1: Disclaimer, yeah, disclaimer the Royal way, the Royal We you
Speaker 1: get high, you get super hungry. Food just looks so
Speaker 1: good and then you're craving the best food. White Castle, Yeah, the.
Speaker 2: Royal We have all been there, yeah, we all.
Speaker 1: I mean that was such it, I mean like, and
Speaker 1: so that's scene of Hal and Kumer when they're finally
Speaker 1: enjoying the spoils of everything they've been.
Speaker 2: Through in an era before uber or door right exactly,
Speaker 2: because that movie is completely ruined in twenty twenty six,
Speaker 2: Like the plot never happens, so like it's it's a
Speaker 2: completely it's a bygone.
Speaker 1: Although because they're they're they're so high yeah or whatever, yeah,
Speaker 1: or we don't know that like out of in the twist,
Speaker 1: like why don't you guys just door dash it? And
Speaker 1: then how kind of how twenty one Jump Street ended?
Speaker 1: You guys are going to college? Yes, no, the yet,
Speaker 1: why don't you use door dash?
Speaker 2: What?
Speaker 1: The yeah?
Speaker 2: You know, sure that would have been great.
Speaker 1: So uh, this film, well, it is called pizza movie.
Speaker 1: It was it was a generic pizza place.
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, it looked good. I would have eaten that.
Speaker 1: It was fine. Yeah, of course, Yeah, that's a little
Speaker 1: too much flavor on there.
Speaker 2: But it wasn't. There was no the payoff wasn't the enjoyment.
Speaker 1: Of the pizza, which we can identify with the whole
Speaker 1: thing that I had to have the pizza, and I realized,
Speaker 1: I'm spoiling part of the movie with this drug. If
Speaker 1: you take this drug without pizza, your worst nightmare comes true.
Speaker 2: Whatever.
Speaker 1: Like, so this was a matter of like, not the
Speaker 1: euphoria of pleasure. It was the pain and terror of of.
Speaker 2: Of I don't know, whatever you want to call it.
Speaker 2: Of yeah, just the bad yeah right, and like it's
Speaker 2: not even in their head, like I'm a little like
Speaker 2: I took a mint or something. Yeah, that's the that's
Speaker 2: the best part is like I found myself harkening back
Speaker 2: to the original Nightmare on Elm Street because you see
Speaker 2: a character go through the final state, and like he's
Speaker 2: floating in the air like the blonde girl in the
Speaker 2: in the in the bedroom in the first night martin
Speaker 2: Elm Street movie and like you don't see Freddy, you
Speaker 2: just see her flailing about and then uh and then uh,
Speaker 2: what do you call it a scratch mark comes across
Speaker 2: her just and then she's dead, and uh. They kind
Speaker 2: of play into that moment here as well. And I know,
Speaker 2: I think the lack of realism kind of bothered you
Speaker 2: with that. I actually kind of appreciated that they they
Speaker 2: made it real throughout the entire movie, Like the things
Speaker 2: that were happening were actually happening. But that ex floating
Speaker 2: scene was dumb. And it's in the trailer, so I'm
Speaker 2: not spoiling any but like I also there were moments
Speaker 2: where I laughed, Like there were moments in that scene
Speaker 2: that I was like, all right, like I'm interested to
Speaker 2: see where this comes.
Speaker 1: It's not that I didn't understand it or understand what
Speaker 1: they're going for, it's just not for me. Yeah, And
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm like, you know, watching this, trying to
Speaker 1: like because I Daredevil came out last night, I knew episode,
Speaker 1: and I want to I want.
Speaker 2: To talk to you off the air because I'm out
Speaker 2: there in the last episode. I'm up to date, and
Speaker 2: I have a lot of thoughts.
Speaker 1: So then so I was I was like trying to
Speaker 1: get through this because this is my appetizer to Jared
Speaker 1: Devil and I'm just like stinking John Jordan, you know,
Speaker 1: this is like, why doesn't it seem like a Hymn movie?
Speaker 2: Though?
Speaker 1: No, I mean like you know him better than me
Speaker 1: as far as like movies go. But to me, like
Speaker 1: this is I mean he's king horror. I mean you
Speaker 1: you're king horror.
Speaker 2: But like no, m so than okay, but like that's
Speaker 2: the that's the type of thing.
Speaker 1: Like, so I have no experience in his recommendation for
Speaker 1: non horror movies. So when he said pizza movie number one,
Speaker 1: I was like, Oh, it's gotta be good because John,
Speaker 1: this is this is out of his my perceived.
Speaker 2: Wheelhouse for him.
Speaker 1: And you said it's gotta be good because he seeked
Speaker 1: you out to tell you about it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is ironic or it's weird because this isn't
Speaker 2: a seek me out to tell me about it kind of.
Speaker 2: I would agree with that, but I will say I
Speaker 2: probably wouldn't have watched it without him. And I'm not
Speaker 2: mad I watched it. You know, it's not like it's
Speaker 2: not how like how I felt after undertone, Yeah, you
Speaker 2: know it's I didn't feel that way at all. I
Speaker 2: laughed quite a bit. I'd argue we haven't done a
Speaker 2: whole bunch of comedies. It wasn't as funny as Naked Gun,
Speaker 2: and it wasn't as funny as.
Speaker 1: All Right.
Speaker 2: Actually, i'm gonna say it, it was funnier and Happy
Speaker 2: Gilmore two.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're uh, it's close, but I think I think
Speaker 1: you're probably right. Yeah, because Happy Gilmore too was a
Speaker 1: classic Sandler and get all my buddies together, right, you
Speaker 1: know film where where a script and punchlines and timing
Speaker 1: that's all tertiary and at the cameo as we can
Speaker 1: do not to be that guy, but I'm gonna be
Speaker 1: that guy.
Speaker 2: Most of the movies like this from Our Youth that
Speaker 2: I haven't seen in a while probably haven't aged that well,
Speaker 2: and like this one, what do you mean? Like there
Speaker 2: are scenes in these other movies that might be a
Speaker 2: little objectified or you know, a little dated at the time,
Speaker 2: and at the time it was fine, And that's how
Speaker 2: movies work. And everyone needs to shut up and appreciate
Speaker 2: the movie came out at a certain time and move on.
Speaker 2: But this is a movie that, like it didn't have
Speaker 2: to resort to those kind of moments, like it it
Speaker 2: elicited genuine laughs without taking it to there, and I
Speaker 2: have to give credit where credit is due. It's harder
Speaker 2: to do that, in my opinion, and I think they
Speaker 2: pulled that off in a way that was impressive.
Speaker 1: I'll say this, and and I've kind of alluded to
Speaker 1: this earlier. Whatever these guys do next, I'm in, yeah,
Speaker 1: I definitely want.
Speaker 2: To see it.
Speaker 1: Imagine they're only going to get better look look it
Speaker 1: up because I know. I know that the directors the directors,
Speaker 1: and they're writers too. I mean, the same guy's directed
Speaker 1: and wrote this. It's Nick and it starts at a K.
Speaker 1: I can't remember Nick Coacher and Brian mclaney, so so yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: exactly mcaleney. I should have known that from from Rob,
Speaker 1: although he's not Rob mcaleney anymore. But they combined their
Speaker 1: names to be Britt and Nick. So it's like Britannic. Okay,
Speaker 1: which is I dig that? Yeah or yeah Britannic. Anyway,
Speaker 1: whatever they do next, I'm definitely into.
Speaker 2: Okay, good, you have nine days? Really over your dead body? This?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 2: Ben?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know if I said this to you
Speaker 1: on air or even off air, I don't remember. I
Speaker 1: saw the trailer for this like a couple of months ago,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, this is the Jason Siegel movie.
Speaker 2: Right. It doesn't say who else is in it. It's
Speaker 2: just like an AI overview of it is what I
Speaker 2: is what I pulled up.
Speaker 1: I just googled it.
Speaker 2: Oh, it says. An action comedy thriller written by Coacher mclaney,
Speaker 2: is scheduled to open in theaters on April twenty fourth.
Speaker 2: It's the remake of the twenty twenty one film The Trip.
Speaker 1: Which I think was a British film if I remember correctly. Yes,
Speaker 1: I'm sure this is the Jason Siegel one. It's basically
Speaker 1: a husband and a wife who get married and then
Speaker 1: essentially are trying to kill each other. Oh good, and
Speaker 1: the other one doesn't. The other one's so focused on
Speaker 1: trying to kill the other one that they don't realize that.
Speaker 1: I'm watch a trailer for it sometime. I was gonna
Speaker 1: bring this up. I thought this might be pretty good.
Speaker 1: What scared me a little bit off of it is
Speaker 1: I didn't want it to turn into like a rom com.
Speaker 2: Yeah, or that's your basically is describing the Roses, which
Speaker 2: is the only one you didn't watch for this this podcast.
Speaker 2: But yeah, it's basically that's not the same plot. That
Speaker 2: same premise is basically so like yeah, I mean they're
Speaker 2: like like in the trailer, the Jason Seagull plus these
Speaker 2: right see Now that granted he wouldn't fit well in
Speaker 2: this movie either, but that's a casting that I'm like, Okay,
Speaker 2: what if they made this movie in the Jason Siegel
Speaker 2: freaks and geeks are Yeah, give me that, give me
Speaker 2: some James Franco and Jason Seagall and whomever in the South.
Speaker 1: But let's let's go let's go back to this a
Speaker 1: little bit. Go back twenty five years Pizza movie is made. Yeah,
Speaker 1: starring Siegel and Franco. Yeah, that would have been I
Speaker 1: think that would have been absolutely hilarious. You could have
Speaker 1: thrown Sandler in this movie. You could have thrown there's
Speaker 1: a handful of people that I think would be Rogan,
Speaker 1: like instead of Siegel, where it's Rogan and Franco because
Speaker 1: we know they I'm.
Speaker 2: Sure, Yeah, yeah, oh absolutely, Franco could be the Dustin
Speaker 2: surrogate and yeah, or not Frank.
Speaker 1: Character.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that would have been so much. Yet but again
Speaker 2: we're biased. But like again, I it's this is the
Speaker 2: most confused I've been reviewing a movie because it's like,
Speaker 2: do I recommend it? It's free, It's an hour and
Speaker 2: a half of your time that you'll never get back.
Speaker 1: It's only free if you paid for the service. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but I count that as free.
Speaker 2: As one state senator says, they lost a few IQ points,
Speaker 2: but there were a few laughs to be had, and
Speaker 2: I feel like that's probably better than I could do
Speaker 2: to describe it.
Speaker 1: I like, let me do let me do mine first. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: I'm going to give it a four. Oh, I know,
Speaker 1: all right, just want to make sure that we weren't
Speaker 1: on the same page. Yeah, I want it because I
Speaker 1: didn't want you to come out and say four and
Speaker 1: be like, well, I gotta go way lower than that now.
Speaker 2: No, dude, I was gonna because, as you know, a
Speaker 2: six to me means I paid attention till the end,
Speaker 2: and I did, but I was teetering, so like I
Speaker 2: was in like the five and a half to six range.
Speaker 2: Is where I have this right now, because I there's
Speaker 2: things to like. There's way more than a four things
Speaker 2: to like in the movie.
Speaker 1: Really, I think it may come back to our like
Speaker 1: you said, are the different experiences twenty maybe I also just,
Speaker 1: I mean just some of this was just it was
Speaker 1: too out there for me. And that's the old man
Speaker 1: of me speaking, you know whatever, not say I didn't
Speaker 1: enjoy it. If I didn't enjoy it, all would have
Speaker 1: gotten like a one like there. They had its moments.
Speaker 1: I obviously had a problem with the casting as well,
Speaker 1: But I do think for these guys to have their
Speaker 1: uh Brian mclaney and Nick coachure to have this as
Speaker 1: they're like launching pad into directing a feature length film.
Speaker 1: Very excited to see what comes of that. Yeah, there's
Speaker 1: a little bit of Lord and Miller to them, Like
Speaker 1: we talked about Lord and Miller directing Project Tail Mary
Speaker 1: Sure and those guys, I mean there is established as
Speaker 1: you can get when you're direct. But and like anything
Speaker 1: those guys do, I will see I think these guys
Speaker 1: are on that track as well, and we'll see what
Speaker 1: happens with over your dead body. But I didn't even
Speaker 1: know these guys did it, And now that I know
Speaker 1: that they do, I'm feeling really good about that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you could talk me into it, we'd have we'd
Speaker 2: have an episode in between. We got to figure out here,
Speaker 2: But I mean you can Yeah, into it. But yeah,
Speaker 2: so that's our thoughts on pizza movie. I say check
Speaker 2: it out Bulky a little bit differently. Yeah, I don't
Speaker 2: think you're missing anything, especially like if you were fun
Speaker 2: in your twenties, maybe given, yeah, and see what you
Speaker 2: think about it. But yeah, I'll be interested to hear
Speaker 2: what you think.
Speaker 1: By the way, did you look at the ratings?
Speaker 2: Oh? Yeah, only just moments ago.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 2: You know what's crazy is critics liked it more than audiences, really,
Speaker 2: seventy eight to sixty six, So audiences are only sixty
Speaker 2: six on them. Yeah. Interesting. Yeah, and again I'm willing
Speaker 2: to bet what's funny is the first one is a
Speaker 2: zero out of four. You never see zeros and it
Speaker 2: was My goodness, does it flail when brought to life
Speaker 2: on the screen in a collection of pointless and random,
Speaker 2: hallucinatory digressions that mean nothing and go nowhere? Like that
Speaker 2: kind of sounds again, at least Bulky can give it
Speaker 2: a zero. This is why it's better than a zero.
Speaker 2: This is why we're better because there's always a slight
Speaker 2: optimism in the way that we do these, even when
Speaker 2: we're kind of like, mah, not for me, But I
Speaker 2: can see who might like this, and it's just that
Speaker 2: they're younger than us. Unfortunately, time waits for No Man
Speaker 2: or Woman. This has better reviews than the Super Mario
Speaker 2: Brothers movie. Uh, that's surprising to me. Yeah, okay. Now,
Speaker 2: as far critics not audiences, audiences are ninety five percent.
Speaker 2: We are as simple breed go on, what was your Now?
Speaker 2: As far as what.
Speaker 1: We would do this next episode, I don't know how
Speaker 1: you feel about Faces of Death if it works out or.
Speaker 2: We Yeah, i'd have to see because there's very limited
Speaker 2: screen time and it's hard for me to squeeze it in.
Speaker 2: But if we can figure that out, i'd be I'd
Speaker 2: be down, But I don't matter.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you'd be down for this because
Speaker 1: it's not the type of movie that we would get,
Speaker 1: and I don't really know. I don't know how much
Speaker 1: fun it would be to break this down. But the
Speaker 1: Lorne Michael's biography comes out.
Speaker 2: This yayh Yeah, that's a push. I'm going to see
Speaker 2: it regardless because I love it.
Speaker 1: Well.
Speaker 2: If you see it, you're like, oh, this will be good.
Speaker 2: Can I don't know if it was how good a
Speaker 2: content it would be. Have we ever done no like,
Speaker 2: that doesn't mean if that's why everybody did everything, we'd
Speaker 2: never do anything new. I just I feel like there's
Speaker 2: better uses of our time. Now.
Speaker 1: There is a wide release movie coming.
Speaker 2: Out called Normal.
Speaker 1: Have you heard about this? Yeah, but I forget centers
Speaker 1: on a temporary small town sheriff. Yeah.
Speaker 2: It covers dark chista, a local robbery. Sign me up?
Speaker 2: Is that?
Speaker 1: Is that? Is that out this week?
Speaker 2: That comes out this weekend? It just looks like Nobody.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna be honest, it looks like the plot to Nobody,
Speaker 2: but whatever Nobody was good, Like, I'd be willing to
Speaker 2: give it a shot. It might be generic. I have
Speaker 2: a feeling it's going to be generic, but I'm willing
Speaker 2: to Probably will Odin Kirk, he's an artist, though he's
Speaker 2: more of an artist than people give him credit for.
Speaker 2: Lena Hetty, Okay, Henry Winkler, this is gonna be good.
Speaker 2: And then I don't know any of the other people.
Speaker 2: That's fine, that's normal is what we're going with. Yeah,
Speaker 2: why not? I'm good with it.
Speaker 1: Yeah. And then and then we can revisit. Maybe we'll
Speaker 1: Faces of Death might go the way of the Scream
Speaker 1: seven again.
Speaker 2: We can catch it once it's available in a reasonable way,
Speaker 2: are we going to Uh? I feel like we should
Speaker 2: probably do the Michael Jackson biopic. I do, and that's
Speaker 2: when that's coming. You think they're gonna get dark with it.
Speaker 2: I don't know how you do a Michael because it
Speaker 2: seems so uplifting in the trailers. I'm like, you're not
Speaker 2: going to touch on it.
Speaker 1: Coleman Domingo, I believe, plays Michael Jackson's father in this.
Speaker 1: Uh and uh listen if you've seen Euphoria and you've
Speaker 1: seen some of the other films.
Speaker 2: That the sixteen year old girl? So did I tell
Speaker 2: you that joke? Okay?
Speaker 1: So Coman Dimingo hosted SNL this past week and was it.
Speaker 2: This past week?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: This is past week.
Speaker 1: And he said I've been acting since the nineties and
Speaker 1: he listed all his things, you know that he's done,
Speaker 1: and people are They still come up to me and
Speaker 1: people are like, where do I know you from? And
Speaker 1: I say, well, if you're if you are. I can't
Speaker 1: remember how he framed it, but he's like, if you're
Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah blah, you probably see me in
Speaker 1: Fear of the Walking Dead.
Speaker 2: If you're a girl.
Speaker 1: Under the age of twenty or a creepy guy over
Speaker 1: the age of thirty. You probably know me from you
Speaker 1: and I don't care. Call me creepy or whatever. Euphoury
Speaker 1: A season premiere was this past Sunday night.
Speaker 2: It was awesome. I loved it.
Speaker 1: It was great. It was fantam. There's a time jump,
Speaker 1: and these kids aren't in high school anymore. They have
Speaker 1: jobs and real life. Yeah, I think it's great. I
Speaker 1: I'm here for it. I had never caught it. Didn't
Speaker 1: ensnare me.
Speaker 2: But I'm also behind on stuff that I would like
Speaker 2: to see, Like I haven't seen any of this new
Speaker 2: Game of Throne show. I haven't said. Oh did you
Speaker 2: hear that they might be canceling season two? Why?
Speaker 1: This is insane stuff. Yeah, so you're talking about Night
Speaker 1: of the Seven Kingdoms. Yeah, they already got renewed for
Speaker 1: season two. This is among the most highest debuted shows and.
Speaker 2: HBO maxiustraw the actors.
Speaker 1: No, has nothing to do with the actors. They were
Speaker 1: shooting season two and they were shooting it in I
Speaker 1: gotta remember if I hope I'm telling this correctly, They
Speaker 1: shot part of it wherever, and then they were moving
Speaker 1: the production to someplace in Spain that's known for like
Speaker 1: droughts or whatever, so it was kind of like a
Speaker 1: barren type of there was a flood in this area
Speaker 1: while they were filming that set, Like the whole set
Speaker 1: is underwater right now. Wow, and they may have to
Speaker 1: cancel season two.
Speaker 2: That series might get canceled over this. Wow.
Speaker 1: Showrunner said that he thought that he could get I
Speaker 1: mean again, this is the showrunner. I could get twelve
Speaker 1: to fifteen years out of this this show you know,
Speaker 1: which you know, it's all based on the Duncan egg
Speaker 1: stories from Game of Thrones or whatever. And he thought,
Speaker 1: because of this eggon character that's still very little, he's
Speaker 1: like ten, ten years old, nine years whatever, that you
Speaker 1: could take this up until he's in a full of
Speaker 1: grown adult in his mid twenties and take a year
Speaker 1: out of the area.
Speaker 2: Stark approach kind of yeah.
Speaker 1: But actually do it like you remember Boyhood, the Richard Linchader,
Speaker 1: Like do like that thing where you were actually watching
Speaker 1: this actor grow up on film, which would be kind
Speaker 1: of cool. But yeah, so I don't know what's gonna happen.
Speaker 1: It's in limbo now. I think this is reactionary stuff.
Speaker 1: I can't believe that you would just cancel such a
Speaker 1: highly rated show based on your set is underwater.
Speaker 2: But they got to figure out what they're gonna do
Speaker 2: with the set. Like it's crazy, and you scoff at
Speaker 2: four fifteen years of and you don't scoff, but you're like, Okay,
Speaker 2: he's a showrunner. Take it with a grain of salt.
Speaker 2: I remember in season four of The Walking Dead, the
Speaker 2: showrunners said, we have fourteen seasons in mind, and like,
Speaker 2: realistically it's still on not The Walking Dead, get that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I remember it was like season eight, season nine,
Speaker 1: after Nagan was defeated.
Speaker 2: I think Scott M.
Speaker 1: Gimple said, you know, twenty seasons we could easily do.
Speaker 1: Now there is a lot of fatigue. Obviously they got
Speaker 1: rid of all these other supplementary characters, and then Megan
Speaker 1: and Maggie had their spin off, Darryl and Carroll had
Speaker 1: their spin off, Rick and Michon had their spin off.
Speaker 2: You had the I think there's a movie in production
Speaker 2: right now, or that might have been a spruit.
Speaker 1: There's I don't know what to think anymore. I know
Speaker 1: the Darryl Dixon thing. The next season is the last season, Okay,
Speaker 1: I know that I heard that Andrew Lincoln was working
Speaker 1: on coming back and wrapping things up with Norman Retis,
Speaker 1: with Jeffrey Dean Morgan, where all these storylines could come
Speaker 1: back into one and maybe that would be the film
Speaker 1: that they would do. I'd watch that. I mean, I
Speaker 1: would imagine that these eric, these actors are probably getting
Speaker 1: sick of playing the I mean, Andrew Lincoln left the
Speaker 1: show once already because he was sick of it, right,
Speaker 1: So I got to imagine that they're probably getting tired.
Speaker 2: Isn't that funny how that stuff works? Like you and
Speaker 2: I would do anything to get a fourteen year paid
Speaker 2: gig like that, But it's just like any other thing
Speaker 2: that goes on too long, like what you're thrail to
Speaker 2: break into Hollywood, and then you're pissed.
Speaker 1: That it's the only thing you're known for in Hollywood.
Speaker 1: And it's just I think, and I'm not speaking out
Speaker 1: of turn here, I think I might feel the same
Speaker 1: way as them. Once I've experienced that, I might be like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I got to do something else creatively, even if it's
Speaker 1: not as good, and it probably wouldn't be as good.
Speaker 2: But think about it, You're twenty five years old, Jennifer Aniston.
Speaker 2: You're like, we got this show, friends, why don't you
Speaker 2: give it away? And they're like, yeah, I'll do anything
Speaker 2: to get into Hollywood. And then like season seven rules around,
Speaker 2: like unless you pay me twenty four million dollars a year.
Speaker 2: But listen, it's pro athletes do the same thing. Yep,
Speaker 2: Recording artists do the same thing. I'm not hating. I
Speaker 2: just think it's an interesting psychological thing that's just like
Speaker 2: this thing that's millions of people would kill to be
Speaker 2: a part of the other thing.
Speaker 1: To Ben and I say, I brought this up with
Speaker 1: you before. You know, some of these teenagers that are
Speaker 1: going into the NBA or whatever where they have this
Speaker 1: high entitlement, you know, sort of.
Speaker 2: Attitude.
Speaker 1: I don't necessarily blame them for it, because I think
Speaker 1: the best it like, the better you get at something,
Speaker 1: and the the more on the long tail you become
Speaker 1: of the point one percent of somebody who can do
Speaker 1: something that you know that popular culture appreciates. The more
Speaker 1: people you're gonna get around you telling you how awesome
Speaker 1: you are, and telling you how great you are at this,
Speaker 1: and telling you like how you need to be doing
Speaker 1: as much as you can to make as much money
Speaker 1: as you can day and I see it.
Speaker 2: I can't. I can't tell you this because you're living.
Speaker 1: But but at some point, and you can tell me,
Speaker 1: at some point, when people tell you how great you are,
Speaker 1: you start to believe and and and then when you
Speaker 1: get to the height of primetime television, when you get
Speaker 1: to the height of professional basketball, like, it's really really
Speaker 1: difficult to stay grounded.
Speaker 2: I agree, I would, I would completely. I can't even imagine.
Speaker 2: Justin Bieber actually said something very similar, says, what would
Speaker 2: you do at twenty one with one hundred million dollars
Speaker 2: being the largest musician in America? And I'm like, oh,
Speaker 2: I probably would have been a bigger jerk than you were.
Speaker 1: Actually, not that I think about it, it's very interesting.
Speaker 1: Fernando Mendoza, the uh expected number one pick of the
Speaker 1: draft NFL Draft next week. His nickname, his nickname is
Speaker 1: LinkedIn because he's got this uh you know, he's he
Speaker 1: skipped some sort of like he skipped the combine because
Speaker 1: he was doing some sort of not apprenticeship, what do
Speaker 1: you call it, an internship in New York at some
Speaker 1: financial company or whatever. And he's got this very polished
Speaker 1: professional person so people start calling him LinkedIn, you know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And so I was reading this from one of the scouts,
Speaker 1: and what hasn't this guy done?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was a no star recruit, won the Heisman,
Speaker 1: first undefeated season in college football history in the current
Speaker 1: you know, college football playoff at a non blue blood school,
Speaker 1: and now he's been the number one overall pick of
Speaker 1: the draft. Like what this guy has? Andy's going to
Speaker 1: be a huge bust and hold on, just hold on.
Speaker 1: But he's mowed down everything in his He's shattered it,
Speaker 1: like he's done everything. And I was reading this about
Speaker 1: a scout said this the other day. He doesn't know
Speaker 1: how this polished, super nice LinkedIn personality is gonna go
Speaker 1: over in NFL locker rooms. You can talk about his
Speaker 1: shortcomings on the field. I get it.
Speaker 2: You know. They also argue it's a new NFL, like
Speaker 2: I think it fits in more now than it would
Speaker 2: have even ten years now. I don't either, I either.
Speaker 2: I don't at all.
Speaker 1: I think that the personalities in NFL locker rooms are
Speaker 1: still as strong as they ever are, as they ever were.
Speaker 1: There's just a situation where they become more muted publicly.
Speaker 1: But I still think everything you think goes on in
Speaker 1: those locker rooms, it probably still does. To it again for.
Speaker 2: Sure, I hope you guys are all sticking around for
Speaker 2: this because we're opening this can of worms. Now. I
Speaker 2: don't think I think it's I shouldn't say it's not
Speaker 2: any different. It's obviously more professional and maybe a more
Speaker 2: classic way. But to explain to me the difference between
Speaker 2: what he's doing and what Juju Smith Schuster is doing,
Speaker 2: it seems like self promotion. It seems like get your
Speaker 2: name out there. He Juju was doing the TikTok dances,
Speaker 2: building the Juju Smith to brand around being the player.
Speaker 2: I don't idea well, how is he building his brand? Well,
Speaker 2: because he's LinkedIn. That's literally it's networking and building a brand.
Speaker 2: It's what but I mean, but that's it's very different
Speaker 2: than what all the players are doing. It's just a
Speaker 2: different approach.
Speaker 1: But you could say that Peyton Manning was doing that
Speaker 1: twenty five years ago, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: So I don't think. I don't think it will be
Speaker 2: his off putting in the locker rooms. I think the
Speaker 2: fact that he sucks will be off putting. I think, Okay,
Speaker 2: let me let me, let me reframe this. I think
Speaker 2: there is a certain level of suspected Russell Wilson Okay, yeah, see,
Speaker 2: non genuine what do you call that? Yeah, disingenuous, disingenuous
Speaker 2: stuff from him. Whether that's true or not, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't know, but I think there are some people
Speaker 1: that think that there's something like this going on.
Speaker 2: And listen, when you're.
Speaker 1: Winning doesn't really matter exactly, but when you're not winning, Yeah,
Speaker 1: you got that cold awakening once you get there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, what did we agree on for next week? Good?
Speaker 1: Good?
Speaker 2: One more thing just because we're all here and we
Speaker 2: didn't say anything about Marvel.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, have you seen the focus group stuff yet? No?
Speaker 1: All right, I'm gonna read a thing to you, okay,
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna go for Doomsday.
Speaker 2: Oh they're focus grouping this, dude. Everyone is loving it. Really,
Speaker 2: they're literally comparing it to Okay, I'm just gonna read it.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So I've been told, holy hold on, where is this
Speaker 2: coming from that you're reading discussing film?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 2: So, I've been told, holy f Doom Avengers. Doomsday is
Speaker 2: going to have people turning away from the screen. This
Speaker 2: ship is dark horror Dark. Take it from me. This
Speaker 2: movie is going to make people cry, scream, and make
Speaker 2: people leave theaters in complete silence. That is just one
Speaker 2: of the ways that people are breaking this down. If
Speaker 2: I get rid of the word dark. I saw these
Speaker 2: and I was gonna send them to you, just text them.
Speaker 1: Now, this is focused stuff, So we don't know if
Speaker 1: this stuff is gonna make it into the fire.
Speaker 2: Well no, so okay, So we're at a point right
Speaker 2: now they are doing reshoots and Marvel has already gone
Speaker 2: out of the way to say we are not reshooting
Speaker 2: for plot at this point. The only reason they're reshooting
Speaker 2: is to add more fan service and more cool shit
Speaker 2: because they are saying it tested on the same level
Speaker 2: as Infinity War, and the audience said it is the
Speaker 2: Russo Brothers best marvelom.
Speaker 1: That's incredible. Man, this is being portrayed right now. It
Speaker 1: sucks that we have to wait, yeah, I mean more months.
Speaker 1: You know, this thought just crossed my mind. I'm like, really,
Speaker 1: I gotta sit and trudge through a Spider Man for
Speaker 1: before I can get to this.
Speaker 2: Blows. Whatever Daredevil's doing out of the water has been great.
Speaker 2: Oh absolutely, absolutely can't recommend it enough. Pizza movie not
Speaker 2: so much. We'll talk to you guys next week with normal.
Speaker 2: Thanks for putting up with that.
