1
00:00:00,880 --> 00:00:03,439
Speaker 1: Frankly, I'm not too wild about this next event, but

2
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:07,679
it has become a tradition here at Adams, the Belching Contest.

3
00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:13,199
Speaker 2: This is Mike Carmen and April Harmont. You're listening to

4
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:16,120
another Shirley you Can't Be Serious podcast with my buddy

5
00:00:16,199 --> 00:00:38,200
Jason Colvin and de Graves. Jason, what is the worst

6
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:40,840
episode of the Shirley you Can't Be Serious Podcast?

7
00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:43,880
Speaker 3: Well, that would be hard to say, sir. They're each

8
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:45,560
outstanding in their way.

9
00:00:45,679 --> 00:00:49,200
Speaker 2: Cut the horse hit Son. I've got the analytical files

10
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:51,679
right here. We had an episode that dropped a whole

11
00:00:51,679 --> 00:00:54,880
truckload of phizzies in the varsity swim mate, an episode

12
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:58,719
that medical school cadavers went to the alumni dinner. Every

13
00:00:59,079 --> 00:01:01,640
dad gum hallow, and this thing pops up and the

14
00:01:01,679 --> 00:01:05,719
trees are filled with underwear, and every spring the toilets explode.

15
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,519
Speaker 3: You're talking about the best Super Bowl commercials of twenty

16
00:01:08,519 --> 00:01:09,439
twenty one, so for.

17
00:01:09,359 --> 00:01:11,760
Speaker 2: Of course, I'm talking about the best Super Bowl commercials

18
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:15,239
of twenty twenty one to TWERP. Hello everybody, and welcome

20
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:20,239
even we get one wrong from time to time.

21
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,000
Speaker 3: Hey, you know you can't hit home runs all the time.

22
00:01:23,439 --> 00:01:26,560
Speaker 2: We are back with a second part to our comparison

23
00:01:26,719 --> 00:01:32,760

Dean Vernon Warmer also when I'm Going to Get You Sucker.

49
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,360
I haven't seen that movie, so I did not know that.

50
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:43,719
Speaker 4: Wow, you haven't seen it. I'm gonna get you Sucker.

51
00:02:43,759 --> 00:02:45,319
Speaker 2: You've seen you've seen it? Sure?

52
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,520

54
00:02:49,199 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 2: Okay, all right.

55
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,319
Speaker 3: Chris Rock early early Chris Rock.

56
00:02:52,159 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, okay, if I may nerd out here for

57
00:02:55,479 --> 00:02:58,960
just a second, please. There is an elementary particle that

58
00:02:59,199 --> 00:03:04,879
is atum of the electromagnetic field, including electromagnetic radiation such

59
00:03:04,879 --> 00:03:08,479
as light and radio waves, and is the force carrier

60
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:14,560
for the electromagnetic force. And the idea of this particle

61
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:20,120
was postulated by mattch Planck, who then that theory was

62
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:25,280
expounded upon by Albert Einstein, and then ultimately this particle

63
00:03:25,439 --> 00:03:29,280
was given a name, and the name was a photon,

64
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,080
and the guy who gave it that name was a

65
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:39,039
physicist named Gilbert Lewis, which is where we get the

66
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,919
names for our two nerds in Revenge of Thing?

67
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:42,759
Speaker 4: Are you kidding me?

68
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:43,479
Speaker 2: There you go?

69
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 3: That is a great story, man. I liked your nerd voice.

70
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:55,639
Speaker 2: To thank you, okay. And last week, you know, throwing

71
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:59,240
some credit to another Patreon member, James Buckley counselor the

72
00:03:59,319 --> 00:04:03,360
vyou Bears, Yeah, exactly, the Cajun counselor when we discussed

73
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:08,680
the plethora of crimes which are committed within Revenge of

74
00:04:08,719 --> 00:04:11,240
the Nerds, not mentioning any from Animal House, which is

75
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:15,719
also copious. But so, there's a rather infamous scene in

76
00:04:15,919 --> 00:04:21,000
Revenge of the Nerds where our hero, hero of the movie, yeah,

77
00:04:21,079 --> 00:04:23,720
hero of the movie, if you will, dons the mask

78
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:27,600
of the villain of the movie in order to gain

79
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:31,040
carnal knowledge of the villain's girlfriend, who has been a

80
00:04:31,079 --> 00:04:34,279
total bee to him the whole time. Right, but Betty

81
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,319
Child's Betty Child's and they go to the fun house

82
00:04:37,399 --> 00:04:39,399
and he says he wants to leave the mask on,

83
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,319
and it's kind of they try to tame it a

84
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,600
little bit by being like, this wonderful experience for her

85
00:04:45,759 --> 00:04:48,000
and it causes her change over and all of this

86
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,680
other stuff. Right, But what we have is a case

87
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:51,920
of rape by deception.

88
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I emailed James, I think you, I think

89
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:58,639
you and I both contacted him separately, independent of each other,

90
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:02,240
and I said, what is is the legality of that?

91
00:05:02,399 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 1: Right?

92
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 3: Because he didn't force her, but he deceived her.

93
00:05:07,319 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 2: Right, and so what is you know, what is he.

94
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:10,040
Speaker 4: Really guilty of?

95
00:05:10,319 --> 00:05:13,920
Speaker 3: He sent me this case and it blew my doors off.

96
00:05:14,199 --> 00:05:18,720
Speaker 2: Right. Yeah, the case is called Borow versus Superior Court.

97
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:23,040
Here's the facts of this case. Okay, Yeah, there was

98
00:05:24,079 --> 00:05:30,040
Daniel Borrow who was the defendant who was charged with rape.

99
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:35,800
But the circumstances were that his quote unquote victim had

100
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:40,720
been fooled by him. He called her and posed as

101
00:05:40,759 --> 00:05:44,639
a doctor, told her that she had a significant disease,

102
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:49,279
and he called himself doctor Stevens. So that's a little

103
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,519
bit iffy, but she didn't know any other doctor Stephens.

104
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,600
So that's what that's an important factor in this, okay.

105
00:05:55,319 --> 00:05:57,959
And so as doctor Stevens, he says, you have this

106
00:05:58,199 --> 00:06:01,560
rare condition and the only way to cure it is

107
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:07,199
a rather long and expensive and painful surgery, or you

108
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:10,319
can have sex with someone who has the antibodies for

109
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:14,199
this disease. Yes, and that will cure you as well.

110
00:06:14,399 --> 00:06:17,199
And as it turns out, I am somebody who has

111
00:06:17,319 --> 00:06:22,839
the antibodies for this disease. Just so happens, just coincidence.

112
00:06:22,959 --> 00:06:24,959
I mean, plus, look at this.

113
00:06:25,399 --> 00:06:28,439
Speaker 3: Plus he coerced her to pay him a thousand bucks

114
00:06:28,959 --> 00:06:31,759
for the pleasure of banging her brains out.

115
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:36,199
Speaker 2: So this victim agrees to meet with him at a

116
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,519
hotel room. They do the deed, and then later on

117
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,800
I'm sure she's, hey, wait, he vaccinates her, he injects her,

118
00:06:42,959 --> 00:06:46,920
he inoculates her. Yes, they do the deed, and then

119
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,920
I guess later on she's telling somebody about this, and

120
00:06:49,959 --> 00:06:52,879
they're like, you gotta be kidding to really fall for this,

121
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,279
And so they try to pursue charges against this guy.

122
00:06:56,399 --> 00:07:00,319
But what the court said is that fraud and the

123
00:07:00,319 --> 00:07:05,040
inducement of sexual intercourse does not vitiate consent. And what

124
00:07:05,079 --> 00:07:08,360
that means is just because I lied to you to

125
00:07:08,439 --> 00:07:11,639
get you in bed, doesn't mean that your consent to

126
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:16,079
sex is not real consent, and so it's not rape.

127
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:17,399
Speaker 4: That is so shocking to me.

128
00:07:17,519 --> 00:07:20,879
Speaker 2: It is a bit weird. But if you think how

129
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,319
many girls that you probably fledged the truth on a

130
00:07:24,319 --> 00:07:26,839
little bit as you were trying to learn how to

131
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:30,079
unclasp their bra strap. Then you would see how any

132
00:07:30,319 --> 00:07:32,879
any way that this becomes a crime puts people in

133
00:07:32,959 --> 00:07:36,399
a lot of danger of going to jail. Specifically, I'm

134
00:07:36,399 --> 00:07:39,160
thinking of the scene in Animal House when he goes

135
00:07:39,319 --> 00:07:44,560
posing as Fitz. Yes, when he goes posing as fond

136
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:48,399
Lebowitz is, well, they were engaged to be engaged and

137
00:07:48,399 --> 00:07:52,160
engaged to be engaged, you know, because he absolutely lies

138
00:07:52,439 --> 00:07:55,000
to get her roommate into bed and it works. But

139
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:57,639
it's the same thing. Just because you're lying to get

140
00:07:57,720 --> 00:07:59,319
sex doesn't make it rape.

141
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,319
Speaker 3: All right, Let's talk about some other scenes from the movie. Okay,

142
00:08:02,399 --> 00:08:04,800
you know we talked about Doug Kenny. Doug Kenny is

143
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,639
the guy who started National Lampoon magazine, or it was

144
00:08:07,639 --> 00:08:10,480
Harvard Lampoon then became National Lampoon. He has a couple

145
00:08:10,519 --> 00:08:12,639
of lines in Animal House.

146
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's one of the frat guys, just to kind

147
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,839
of in the background, very nerdy looking frat guy at.

148
00:08:18,759 --> 00:08:20,879
Speaker 3: That his haircut is so weird in this movie.

149
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's got the big glasses. But everybody, I mean,

150
00:08:24,079 --> 00:08:25,800
his line is one of the most famous lines for

151
00:08:25,879 --> 00:08:26,399
the movie.

152
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:28,519
Speaker 3: What the hell was supposed to do you moron.

153
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,959
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's Doug Kenny. God rest his soul. Yeah.

154
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,039
Speaker 3: And then you know we've talked before, he fell tragically

155
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,200
to his death. Now whether or not that was suicide

156
00:08:38,279 --> 00:08:38,519
or not.

157
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,279
Speaker 2: But it was. It was Harold Ramis. I believe that

158
00:08:41,399 --> 00:08:45,639
said Doug fell while looking for a place to jump off.

159
00:08:45,759 --> 00:08:46,559
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's right.

160
00:08:46,759 --> 00:08:49,960
Speaker 3: He also takes over the band at the end of

161
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:53,039
the movie. You know they have that marching band when

162
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:54,879
all the chaos is about to break out and the

163
00:08:54,919 --> 00:08:57,679
guy tosses his baton in the air and mid toss,

164
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,320
Doug Kenny shoves him out of the way, catch the

165
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,200
baton and leads the band.

166
00:09:02,399 --> 00:09:02,679
Speaker 2: Nice.

167
00:09:03,039 --> 00:09:03,679
Speaker 4: So there you go.

168
00:09:04,279 --> 00:09:08,559
Speaker 3: Let's talk about the fun Lebowitz scene. Okay, it's super funny,

169
00:09:08,759 --> 00:09:12,360
but again, it kind of relates to when Lewis impersonates Stan.

170
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:16,320
So you have Otter that goes to the Emily Dickinson College,

171
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:19,720
the all girls' school, right, and they know that this

172
00:09:20,039 --> 00:09:21,399
girl has passed away.

173
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're looking at the newspaper article as they're driving

174
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:25,960
to the Emily Dickens what's.

175
00:09:25,759 --> 00:09:28,519
Speaker 3: This girl's name again? Von Lebowitz, Yeah, and he's like,

176
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:30,559
I'll be right back, and so he goes inside and

177
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:32,960
he says, Hi, I'm here to pick up vun Leebowitz.

178
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:36,200
I'm her fiance, and of course everybody's like what. And

179
00:09:36,279 --> 00:09:38,559
so they called down her roommate and I don't know

180
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:40,519
this girl's name, but boy, she is stunning.

181
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:42,840
Speaker 4: And she comes down and.

182
00:09:42,799 --> 00:09:44,840
Speaker 3: She's like, I am so sorry to tell you this,

183
00:09:44,919 --> 00:09:47,840
but Fawn passed away tragically. And she hands him a

184
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:51,759
newspaper and it's like sophomore killed in Kilne explosion. And

185
00:09:51,759 --> 00:09:55,240
he's like, she was making me a pot and she's

186
00:09:55,279 --> 00:09:57,240
trying to comfort him. Of course, Otter is working her

187
00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:59,000
the whole way, and he's like, I just don't think

188
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,120
I should be alone to see evening, and so she

189
00:10:01,159 --> 00:10:03,240
agrees to go out with him, and he says, oh,

190
00:10:03,279 --> 00:10:06,120
by the way, grab three dates for my friends. Yeah,

191
00:10:06,159 --> 00:10:09,360
And that's when they go to the Otis Day concert

192
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:12,200
right where they're the only white people in the entire

193
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,000
place and there's a record scratch and that whole thing.

194
00:10:15,159 --> 00:10:17,879
So then Otter takes a girl's name is Shelley, takes

195
00:10:17,879 --> 00:10:20,159
her to the car, starts working her over in the

196
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,120
back seat, and he's like.

197
00:10:22,519 --> 00:10:23,919
Speaker 4: I used to touch fun this way.

198
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,559
Speaker 3: She's like, I know, she told me. He kind of

199
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:27,080
looks at her.

200
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:30,039
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, she did. Yeah, okay, yea, she was

201
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,679
rare to go, just like as she was.

202
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,519
Speaker 3: And then of course everybody gets kicked out of the club,

203
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,039
and then she's half naked when they all jump in

204
00:10:38,039 --> 00:10:40,000
the car and they're crashing the car around the parking lot.

205
00:10:40,159 --> 00:10:41,639
Speaker 4: Funny, funny scene.

206
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 3: That scene, Chris Miller said absolute truth actually happened in

207
00:10:46,399 --> 00:10:46,919
real life.

208
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:48,720
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, all of it.

209
00:10:49,039 --> 00:10:49,799
Speaker 4: That's what he said.

210
00:10:49,879 --> 00:10:51,879
Speaker 2: Wow, can we dance with your women?

211
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:54,799
Speaker 3: Do you mind if we dance with your dads?

212
00:10:55,919 --> 00:10:58,240
Speaker 6: Do you mind if we dance with your dates?

213
00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:01,840
Speaker 7: Well, no, not at all.

214
00:11:02,039 --> 00:11:06,519
Speaker 3: My Chris Bauer Patreon member Chris Bauer aka Bomber my

215
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:08,799
buddy in high school, he would come up out of

216
00:11:08,879 --> 00:11:11,480
nowhere while you're in math class or whatever, and you'd

217
00:11:11,519 --> 00:11:12,759
come up behind you and he'd be like.

218
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:14,919
Speaker 4: Do you mind if we dance with you?

219
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:15,879
Speaker 7: Okay?

220
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:17,559
Speaker 3: I want to talk about a certain scene when they're

221
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,960
all visiting Dean Warmer's office. He's going through the grade

222
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,480
point averages. You know, you're like a zero point one

223
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:26,360
and you're a zero point two. You know, you're the

224
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,679
best one at a one point two, and basically he's

225
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,000
telling them they're kicked out, and he's looking at Flounder,

226
00:11:31,039 --> 00:11:33,159
and Flounder's getting more and more upset, and you could

227
00:11:33,159 --> 00:11:34,120
tell he's.

228
00:11:33,919 --> 00:11:36,720
Speaker 2: Trying and stupid. There's no way to go through life sod.

229
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,799
Speaker 3: And so he's trying to say something and Warmer's like,

230
00:11:40,159 --> 00:11:41,240
out with it, what is it?

231
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:41,440
Speaker 5: You know?

232
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:46,320
Speaker 3: Speak and it's obviously he bars all over the place.

233
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,360
They had to cut that because that was too much

234
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:54,279
for the viewing audiences of nineteen seventy eight. They actually

235
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,879
pointed out that just a few years later and stand

236
00:11:56,879 --> 00:11:59,159
by me, there's a giant vomiting scene.

237
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 2: Well, I was just sitting here thinking, hadn't The Exorcist

238
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:04,679
start to come out at this point?

239
00:12:04,799 --> 00:12:05,120
Speaker 4: I guess?

240
00:12:05,159 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 5: So?

241
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 2: Was it seventy nine? When did the Exorcist cheme?

242
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:08,919
Speaker 4: Seventy three?

243
00:12:09,279 --> 00:12:12,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, so five years earlier. You got a girl spitting

244
00:12:12,639 --> 00:12:15,960
pea soup as her head spins around. But one drunk

245
00:12:16,039 --> 00:12:17,799
frat boy vomiting is too much.

246
00:12:17,879 --> 00:12:20,440
Speaker 3: They would not show that scene. They wouldn't show the barfing.

247
00:12:20,639 --> 00:12:22,919
Speaker 4: Weird Okay, I definitely want to talk about.

248
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 3: The end scene when the Deltas finally get back at

249
00:12:25,759 --> 00:12:30,480
everybody by taking over and like terrorizing this town. Parade, right,

250
00:12:30,759 --> 00:12:33,840
they cause all this commotion. All these floats are are crashing,

251
00:12:33,879 --> 00:12:36,320
and there's a little boy in his bedroom looking at

252
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:40,600
a playboy. And when they crash, like it launches a

253
00:12:40,639 --> 00:12:43,919
half naked woman into his room and he's looking at

254
00:12:43,919 --> 00:12:45,960
the playboy. She lands on his bed. He's like, thank

255
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,320
you God. On the float for the Deltas and on

256
00:12:49,399 --> 00:12:52,200
the side of it, like in tissue paper, it says

257
00:12:52,399 --> 00:12:54,879
eat me. And then you've got Kevin Bacon who's standing there.

258
00:12:54,879 --> 00:12:57,120
He's trying to keep everybody calm, and he's like, all

259
00:12:57,279 --> 00:13:00,639
is good, All is good. And this is the only

260
00:13:00,639 --> 00:13:02,440
part of the whole movie where I think the realism

261
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:04,919
goes right out the window. They trample over him and

262
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:08,000
then he looks like a cartoon. He's like flattened on

263
00:13:08,039 --> 00:13:08,759
the sidewalk.

264
00:13:08,919 --> 00:13:10,600
Speaker 2: The dead horse wasn't cartoony?

265
00:13:11,799 --> 00:13:12,320
Speaker 4: The dead horse.

266
00:13:12,879 --> 00:13:15,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, Actually, I want to talk about that scene as well.

267
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,799
So you know, they're at the University of Oregon. The

268
00:13:17,879 --> 00:13:20,960
dean of the college has allowed them access to his office,

269
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,360
and so they drag that horse that's his actual office,

270
00:13:24,399 --> 00:13:26,320
the guy that agreed to let them shoot, and all

271
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:29,480
that stuff. So they're like, well, I guess it's okay.

272
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:31,799
So they drag that horse in there, and that's his

273
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:32,480
real office.

274
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:32,960
Speaker 2: Wow.

275
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:33,639
Speaker 4: And then of.

276
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:36,480
Speaker 3: Course they're terrorizing Flounder, trying to get him. They want

277
00:13:36,519 --> 00:13:38,399
him to think he's killing the horse, but they gave

278
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:39,000
him blanks.

279
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 4: He fired it up in the air. Of course, the

280
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:43,840
horse has a heart attack and dies. Funny.

281
00:13:43,879 --> 00:13:45,000
Speaker 2: That's good comedy, right there.

282
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:45,519
Speaker 4: That's funny.

283
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:47,399
Speaker 3: All right, let's flip over to Revenge of the Nerds

284
00:13:47,399 --> 00:13:48,759
and talk about a few funny scenes there.

285
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, Takashi, what do you got? Well, I think

286
00:13:51,399 --> 00:13:54,960
I have a frush? Is a frush?

287
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,679
Speaker 2: So, as I was watching this movie, it's been nearly

288
00:13:57,720 --> 00:13:59,840
forty years since I've seen the movie, you know, right.

289
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:02,360
I saw it early on when it had been released

290
00:14:02,399 --> 00:14:04,480
on VHS, when I could sneak it by my parents

291
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,799
because I wasn't allowed to watch rated our movies. But

292
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:10,200
it's been a long time, and when I was watching it,

293
00:14:10,639 --> 00:14:13,759
for the first good half hour of the movie, I

294
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:17,799
was just like, oh, this is just not even kind

295
00:14:17,799 --> 00:14:20,759
of mildly funny. It's just okay. But it was a

296
00:14:20,799 --> 00:14:23,480
slow build. It was a slow built but the movie

297
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:27,600
takes off at the party scene when they invite the

298
00:14:27,639 --> 00:14:30,960
moves over right, that is where it takes off. And

299
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:34,039
I think that's due. I mean, number one, the comedy

300
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:37,480
starts because they you have the Lamb to Lamb de Lambda,

301
00:14:37,559 --> 00:14:41,000
you n Bernie Casey guy there and his little you know,

302
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:44,559
helper who's laughing things up. And then they pull out

303
00:14:44,559 --> 00:14:47,840
the joints, the wonder joints, and they and then they

304
00:14:47,879 --> 00:14:50,600
put on the music, and I couldn't believe this. I'm

305
00:14:50,639 --> 00:14:55,759
listening to Thriller, like the original Michael Jackson Thriller music

306
00:14:55,960 --> 00:15:00,000
for at least three minutes. Sure, I mean it's crazy.

307
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,000
See how long they play this as just music that

308
00:15:03,039 --> 00:15:05,720
they're all just dancing to. And the dancing is hysterical,

309
00:15:06,039 --> 00:15:08,360
and the girls coming onto the guys and the guys

310
00:15:08,399 --> 00:15:11,320
coming onder the girls. It's all fantastic. But it just

311
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:14,480
takes off at that moment, and I was just like, wow,

312
00:15:14,559 --> 00:15:18,000
how did they manage I mean, this tiny budget little movie,

313
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:22,320
how did they manage to get the rights to Thriller? Well?

314
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,639
Crap that that was just the beginning, right.

315
00:15:24,879 --> 00:15:27,440
Speaker 3: They played Burning Down the House by the Talking Heads.

316
00:15:27,159 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 2: Which was huge in nineteen eighty four. It was, and

317
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,480
then they played a throwback to the seventies but still

318
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,639
a fantastic song, We are the Champions like Queen.

319
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:39,440
Speaker 4: It was mind blowing.

320
00:15:39,559 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 2: I mean, key moments in the movie and they get

321
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,639
full so I don't I couldn't believe that they had

322
00:15:44,759 --> 00:15:47,279
access to all of this incredible music.

323
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:49,480
Speaker 3: The budget of this movie is six million dollars. Yeah,

324
00:15:49,559 --> 00:15:51,480
you can't get thriller today for six million dollars.

325
00:15:51,559 --> 00:15:52,000
Speaker 2: Probably not.

326
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know how they did. I think maybe

327
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:57,200
it just wasn't a big deal to play, so.

328
00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 2: I don't know.

329
00:15:57,639 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 3: I mean, nineteen eighty four playing Michael Jackson, that seems

330
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:00,879
like a pretty big deal.

331
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a big deal. They had to have I

332
00:16:03,399 --> 00:16:05,639
don't know. They had to have had the inside track somehow.

333
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:07,600
I don't know how they did it, but it was

334
00:16:07,799 --> 00:16:08,639
I was impressed.

335
00:16:08,919 --> 00:16:11,480
Speaker 3: But yeah, that's when it really takes off. The scene

336
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:14,639
that I always thought was hilarious is when they get

337
00:16:14,639 --> 00:16:16,399
the liquid heat and they put it all over the

338
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:20,279
jockstraps for the football team, right right right. I think

339
00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:23,480
you even said this is a use of a chemical weapon. Yes,

340
00:16:23,799 --> 00:16:25,960
And they're all standing there and as a kid I

341
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:27,799
was watching this, I'm thinking, this is the funniest thing

342
00:16:27,799 --> 00:16:29,600
I've ever seen. They're standing there and they start to

343
00:16:29,639 --> 00:16:32,480
kind of fidget, yeah, and the coach is speaking talking

344
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,480
to him, giving him pep talk, and they start to

345
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:36,759
fidget more and more and more, and then they started

346
00:16:36,759 --> 00:16:38,879
throwing the cups on it, and then they take off running.

347
00:16:38,919 --> 00:16:40,639
Speaker 2: He's like, just go get them, and they all take

348
00:16:40,679 --> 00:16:43,799
off to the locker room and and he's like, we

349
00:16:43,879 --> 00:16:45,440
forgot to practice.

350
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 3: Improvd line by John Goodman.

351
00:16:47,279 --> 00:16:49,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, by the way, I hope I don't get too

352
00:16:49,799 --> 00:16:51,240
graphic on this. When I was a little kid, just

353
00:16:51,279 --> 00:16:54,279
to talk about the chemical burn thing. Yeah, it's it's

354
00:16:54,799 --> 00:16:58,600
unsettling how uncomfortable that can be. But I remember going

355
00:16:58,639 --> 00:17:02,879
to a fununction with my mother and they had some

356
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:06,039
salsa on the table that included some jalapenos, and I

357
00:17:06,039 --> 00:17:08,319
guess I had picked one of the jalapenos up. And

358
00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:11,079
then I'm a kid of like five or six years old, right,

359
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:12,640
and then I went and you know, went to the

360
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:15,480
bathroom and it came back and then like I'm like

361
00:17:16,039 --> 00:17:18,279
it was it was exactly like the movie where it's

362
00:17:18,319 --> 00:17:20,480
like you're like thinking about it, you know, You're like,

363
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,200
what's going on and you're like you kind of you

364
00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:25,279
move to one side, and then you moved to the

365
00:17:25,319 --> 00:17:28,720
other side, and then it's like, I can't just reach

366
00:17:28,839 --> 00:17:32,119
down there and grab I gotta what am I gonna? Oh?

367
00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:35,839
This is getting worse. And finally my mother turns to

368
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:37,480
me and she's like, do we need to leave? And

369
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:40,319
I was like, yes, yes we do. She's like, oh,

370
00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:44,119
okay and Schooville's I was like, I don't know what happened,

371
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:47,119
and she was like, you held the jalapeno bro Yeah,

372
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:50,000
of course it bro because that was nineteen three. But whatever.

373
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:53,519
Speaker 3: Okay, let's talk about the carnival of events where they

374
00:17:53,519 --> 00:17:56,440
have to try and win the fraternity.

375
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:57,759
Speaker 2: Prize, the contest.

376
00:17:57,319 --> 00:17:59,759
Speaker 3: The contest, right, so they do they do some funny

377
00:17:59,759 --> 00:18:02,640
things like they have the beer tricycle race.

378
00:18:02,759 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 2: Yep.

379
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,400
Speaker 3: We talked about how the guy who played Takashi really

380
00:18:05,519 --> 00:18:09,400
was drinking actual beers and so he was actually hammered

381
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:13,279
from doing those tricycle races, right, which was hilarious.

382
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:17,359
Speaker 2: Not to mention this absurdity was endorsed by the university there.

383
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:20,319
Speaker 3: The coaches up there is like, at which point everyone's

384
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:22,319
gonna chug a beer? Then they have the bull riding,

385
00:18:22,519 --> 00:18:25,359
they have the tug of war, they have arm wrestling.

386
00:18:25,079 --> 00:18:26,480
Speaker 4: Then they have the belching contest.

387
00:18:26,839 --> 00:18:28,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you get a kind of a half hearted

388
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:32,720
effort from Ogre right, and then you have the booger belch.

389
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:36,039
Speaker 1: Frankly, I'm not too wild about this next event, but

390
00:18:36,079 --> 00:18:42,880
it has become a tradition here at Adams. The belching contest.

391
00:18:43,079 --> 00:18:47,759
Speaker 2: Now, there's a rumor that some say is untrue, but

392
00:18:48,519 --> 00:18:51,759
in my estimation I like to believe the urban legend

393
00:18:51,759 --> 00:18:54,680
if it is one on where they get this burp sound?

394
00:18:54,759 --> 00:18:55,759
Do you know this story? No?

395
00:18:55,799 --> 00:18:56,200
Speaker 4: I don't.

396
00:18:56,519 --> 00:19:00,200
Speaker 2: Okay, well, I mean part of it is actually a

397
00:19:01,039 --> 00:19:06,119
man burping, but if you listen, it extends out some distance.

398
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:12,000
And apparently what they used was a sound clip from

399
00:19:12,039 --> 00:19:18,599
a National geographic where there was one camel copulating with

400
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:23,400
another camel. And so this is the this is the

401
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:27,119
sound of camel marital bliss if you will. That makes

402
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:28,720
the sound for this extended burn.

403
00:19:38,039 --> 00:19:39,640
Speaker 4: That's funny, that's funny.

404
00:19:40,279 --> 00:19:42,160
Speaker 3: And then you have the javelin throw.

405
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:43,880
Speaker 2: Wait, do you see Lamar's throw?

406
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:47,880
Speaker 5: How cong worms is a mastered aerodynamics and he designed

407
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:51,319
the javelin to go along with Lamar's limpriested throwing style.

408
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:57,559
Speaker 2: Where we see Stan knows what he's doing and they've

409
00:19:57,759 --> 00:20:02,920
aerodynamically designed the javelin for or Lamar's we limp risted

410
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:06,759
to throw his limp risted through is not PC anymore.

411
00:20:06,839 --> 00:20:09,559
Boys and Girls forty years makes a lot of differences.

412
00:20:09,599 --> 00:20:11,079
Speaker 4: Just tell you that's funny.

413
00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:15,119
Speaker 2: By the way, that actor had to go and play

414
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,039
some of the manliest parts after this, just to establish

415
00:20:18,079 --> 00:20:18,400
that he.

416
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:20,079
Speaker 4: Wasn't over correcting.

417
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:22,720
Speaker 2: Huh, yes, that he wasn't limp wristed, so to speak.

418
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:26,079
Speaker 3: There's another funny scene where worms are I thought, so,

419
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:29,200
Worms is the little kid, like the brainiac little kid

420
00:20:29,599 --> 00:20:34,119
who's like in college at age twelve, and I saw

421
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:36,720
an interview where the members of the crew and the

422
00:20:36,759 --> 00:20:40,079
director supposedly watched out for him and made sure that

423
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:42,440
this twelve year old didn't get into any trouble. They

424
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:47,240
didn't want him exposed to any kind of unnecessary sexual stuff.

425
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 4: Or alcohol and drugs or whatever.

426
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:51,160
Speaker 3: Right, But there is one really funny scene where he's

427
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:54,279
having a conversation between two giant sets of boobs.

428
00:20:54,519 --> 00:20:55,359
Speaker 4: He's talking to.

429
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:57,559
Speaker 3: One set of boobs and then he turns and he talks

430
00:20:57,599 --> 00:21:00,519
to another set of boobs and he gives this great

431
00:21:00,599 --> 00:21:01,240
cheesy smile.

432
00:21:01,319 --> 00:21:04,720
Speaker 2: Is really funny, breaks the fourth wall and let you

433
00:21:04,759 --> 00:21:06,599
in on the joke. Yes, he does a great job

434
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,000
with that. Yeah, so he was. He was a part

435
00:21:09,039 --> 00:21:12,400
of the scene where they go into the sorority house

436
00:21:12,599 --> 00:21:16,200
and are planting all the cameras, right right, Well, it

437
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:19,079
turns out that sorority house that they use was actually

438
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:24,960
a rat infested, dilapidated, abandoned apartment. They all they did

439
00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:29,720
was take one hallway, repaint that hallway, and that's that's

440
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:32,279
what they used for that scene as they're chasing them around,

441
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:35,599
panty rating if you will, the sorority Wow.

442
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:37,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, wow, that's crazy.

443
00:21:37,559 --> 00:21:39,359
Speaker 2: Okay. So we talked a little bit about the music

444
00:21:39,599 --> 00:21:42,319
in Revenge of the Nerds. Let's jump back. Let's talk

445
00:21:42,319 --> 00:21:44,720
about some of the songs that we get in National

446
00:21:44,839 --> 00:21:48,640
Lampoon Animal Houses. I mean, there are some freaking amazing

447
00:21:48,759 --> 00:21:50,119
songs in this one, no doubt.

448
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:50,680
Speaker 4: Let's do it.

449
00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:52,799
Speaker 2: Okay. So we mentioned last time that the composer for

450
00:21:52,839 --> 00:21:56,680
this one was Elmer Bernstein, friend of John Landers's family,

451
00:21:56,759 --> 00:21:59,799
composer for The Ten Commandments. But they pulled some songs

452
00:21:59,799 --> 00:22:02,519
in some of the time, it was songs sung by

453
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,759
the cast, but one and one of those moments was

454
00:22:06,079 --> 00:22:09,319
a song called money That's what I Want, which was

455
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:12,480
made very popular by the Beatles, of course, but was

456
00:22:12,519 --> 00:22:15,359
originally and they the Beatles covered that song and it

457
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,000
was it's John Belushi that's singing it in this one.

458
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:19,440
Speaker 4: Really okay, yes.

459
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:22,400
Speaker 2: But the writer for the original song is a guy

460
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:24,640
that we've talked about in one of our Patreon episodes

461
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:25,880
named Verry Gordy.

462
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,240
Speaker 4: Really how about that?

463
00:22:28,599 --> 00:22:31,319
Speaker 2: So if you guys are interested in hearing the very

464
00:22:31,319 --> 00:22:36,000

Speaker 4: You ready to talk about Louis Louis?

471
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,160
Speaker 2: Sure, Yeah, as we can talk about Louis Louis.

472
00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:58,720
Speaker 3: So, before we were recording today, you and I were

473
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:00,720
looking at some stuff and I told you that American

474
00:23:00,759 --> 00:23:05,799
songwriter said, this is the most influential, most important.

475
00:23:05,279 --> 00:23:06,960
Speaker 4: Rock song of all time.

476
00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:08,160
Speaker 2: That's a pretty big statement.

477
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:10,000
Speaker 4: That is a big state, the big statement. This song

478
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:11,119
came out in nineteen.

479
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,319
Speaker 3: Sixty three, which you've been the rules a little bit

480
00:23:13,319 --> 00:23:14,680
because Animal House was set.

481
00:23:14,519 --> 00:23:15,640
Speaker 4: In nineteen sixty two.

482
00:23:15,839 --> 00:23:16,119
Speaker 2: Correct.

483
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,359
Speaker 3: It was originally written in nineteen fifty five by an

484
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:22,400
RB guy named Richard Barry. Okay, now the lyrics are

485
00:23:22,519 --> 00:23:26,279
basically unintelligible, right, you can't tell what they're saying.

486
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:28,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, And so the FBI.

487
00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:32,640
Speaker 3: Launched an investigation into the lyrics of this song.

488
00:23:32,759 --> 00:23:33,640
Speaker 4: This is a true.

489
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:57,400
Speaker 3: Story because the Governor of Indiana, Matthew Welsh, declared that

490
00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:00,400
it was pornographic in early nineteen sixty four and wanted

491
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,160
the India in a Broadcasters Association to ban it. And

492
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:07,480
the investigation spanned offices in several states, with technicians listening

493
00:24:07,559 --> 00:24:12,400
to the song at different speeds trying to discern obscene lyrics.

494
00:24:12,519 --> 00:24:17,079
Speaker 2: So this band, the Kingsman IMDb literally refers to them

495
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:21,680
as a frat rock group. Okay, it's great. But Louie

496
00:24:21,759 --> 00:24:24,519
Louie was their debut single, as You Said, came out

497
00:24:24,519 --> 00:24:27,839
in nineteen sixty three. The recording They did it for

498
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:32,839
thirty six dollars at Portland's Northwest Recorders Studio thirty six

499
00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:36,279
dollars thirty six bucks, solid investment, Kingsman, well done.

500
00:24:36,559 --> 00:24:38,799
Speaker 3: Gosh, that is an incredible return.

501
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:41,640
Speaker 2: It went on to hit number two on the Billboard

502
00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:45,200
Pop Charts in nineteen sixty four. Gosh, I don't think

503
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,240
there's been a decade gone by that they haven't used

504
00:24:47,279 --> 00:24:47,960
it in a movie.

505
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,839
Speaker 3: Since its release, this became a national hit when a

506
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:53,359
disc jockey in Boston played it and declared that it

507
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:55,240
was the worst song that he had ever heard.

508
00:24:55,799 --> 00:24:57,599
Speaker 2: I love it all right, what else you got for me?

509
00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,839
So there are a couple of awe some Sam Cook

510
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:03,880
tunes on here. We've got Twist in the Night Away.

511
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,200
Definitely love that song. And then we got a song

512
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:08,920
called Wonderful World, which whenever I hear that title, I

513
00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,359
always think of the Louis Armstrong for sure, But this

514
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:14,720
one is the one that he starts out. Don't know

515
00:25:14,839 --> 00:25:19,759
much about his story, Yeah, don't know much biology that

516
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:22,640
that song's Wonderful World. I would not have guessed that

517
00:25:22,839 --> 00:25:24,759
was the title of that song, but there you go.

518
00:25:24,799 --> 00:25:28,839
But Sam Cook again, an incredibly good song. But as

519
00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:33,400
with other movies, I think that the pinnacle song for

520
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:38,440
this movie has to be the Isley Brothers singing shout

521
00:25:38,839 --> 00:25:40,279
you know to make me won.

522
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:53,839
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, it's fantastic. They played that at every fraternity party.

523
00:25:53,559 --> 00:25:55,680
Speaker 4: Known to man ever since nineteen sixty three.

524
00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 2: Yes, it is a it's a great mix of early

525
00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,319
rock and roll. This came out in like nineteen fifty nine,

526
00:26:02,799 --> 00:26:08,240
early rock and roll and R and B and gospel

527
00:26:08,279 --> 00:26:12,880
like it was his. We actually got calls from from

528
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:17,240
black churches saying we please stop playing that song because

529
00:26:17,279 --> 00:26:21,359
it sounds like a black gospel church song. We don't

530
00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:23,359
want you playing it on the rock and roll stations.

531
00:26:23,799 --> 00:26:25,559
Speaker 4: Here's a quick trivia question for you.

532
00:26:25,759 --> 00:26:29,400
Speaker 3: In the movie Witness with Harrison Ford and Kelly.

533
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:31,039
Speaker 2: McGillis, Yes, okay, I'm familiar with them.

534
00:26:31,079 --> 00:26:34,839
Speaker 3: Harrison Ford's character, John Book is staying at the Amish

535
00:26:35,279 --> 00:26:37,079
place and kind of getting ready to put the moves

536
00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:40,799
on Kelly mcgillis's character, right, He sings a song and

537
00:26:40,839 --> 00:26:41,799
they end up in bed.

538
00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:46,680
Speaker 4: The song Sam Cook's What a Wonderful World?

539
00:26:47,039 --> 00:26:49,920
Speaker 2: Nice, nice, good trivia.

540
00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:54,599
Speaker 4: There you go. By the way, the Sam Cook story tragic.

541
00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:57,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, So I just want to tell you quickly

542
00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:59,640
about the Sam Cook story. I can't remember what episode

543
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:00,599
we could have touched on this.

544
00:27:00,759 --> 00:27:01,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, But on.

545
00:27:01,319 --> 00:27:04,720
Speaker 3: December eleventh, nineteen sixty four, he was at a hotel room.

546
00:27:04,759 --> 00:27:06,519
He had brought a girl back to the hotel and

547
00:27:06,559 --> 00:27:09,000
then she wandered off, and he went down to the

548
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:12,559
hotel manager's office, banged on the door and said, where's

549
00:27:12,559 --> 00:27:14,599
the girl. Where's the girl. She's like, what girl? What

550
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:16,960
are you talking about? Busted in the door. This is,

551
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:20,240
according to the hotel manager, wearing nothing but one shoe

552
00:27:20,279 --> 00:27:23,799
and a sports jacket and nothing else. He grabs her

553
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:25,559
and is like, where's the girl, where's the girl?

554
00:27:25,599 --> 00:27:27,119
Speaker 4: And she's like, I don't know what you're talking about.

555
00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:29,200
Speaker 3: And they wrestle and fight. She pulls out a gun,

556
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,519
she shoots him and kills him. Nineteen sixty four. Wow,

557
00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:34,720
of course, Sam Cook one of the great voices.

558
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:38,640
Speaker 2: Absolutely, that's tragic story. There you go, tragic. Okay, So

559
00:27:38,839 --> 00:27:45,799
two small budget, low expectation movies turn into monumental successes.

560
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:47,759
Both of these movies some of.

561
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,240
Speaker 4: The biggest college comedies of all time.

562
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:53,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, yeah, the biggest. I couldn't tell you

563
00:27:53,519 --> 00:27:54,279
bigger at this point.

564
00:27:54,319 --> 00:27:57,720
Speaker 3: Now, Animal House is the godfather of college comedies.

565
00:27:57,759 --> 00:27:59,680
Speaker 2: It very much is yes, Okay.

566
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:03,920
Speaker 3: Before you get to the success of Animal House, I

567
00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:06,079
want to circle back on a story that I started

568
00:28:06,279 --> 00:28:09,880
in part one. So, the one of the head executives

569
00:28:10,039 --> 00:28:12,960
at Universal, a guy's name was Ned Tannon. He was grumpy,

570
00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,880
didn't believe in the project, didn't really want to do it.

571
00:28:16,039 --> 00:28:20,039
You finally agreed because Tom Mount and Sean Daniel at

572
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,839
Universal we're big fans of the magazine. He's like, fine,

573
00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:26,039
three million bucks. Let's throw three million bucks at him.

574
00:28:26,319 --> 00:28:28,440
Maybe we can make a couple of dollars in the

575
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:29,079
college crowd.

576
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:29,440
Speaker 4: Okay.

577
00:28:29,519 --> 00:28:32,720
Speaker 3: So the original cut of Animal House one hundred and

578
00:28:32,759 --> 00:28:33,880
thirty five minutes long.

579
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:39,119
Speaker 2: Oh hello, that's right. That's not comedy length, right, that's

580
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:42,480
just two hours and fifteen minutes long. That's a lot. Yeah.

581
00:28:42,519 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 3: And so I told you they went to the editor

582
00:28:44,279 --> 00:28:46,000
and they're like, we think this is all great. And

583
00:28:46,039 --> 00:28:47,880
the editor says, well, here's what we're gonna do. We're

584
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:50,920
gonna shake the tree and everything that's unnecessary to this

585
00:28:51,039 --> 00:28:54,000
movie we're going to shake off, and then whatever's left is.

586
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:57,000
Speaker 4: Going to be great, perfectly prune tree, perfectly prune tree.

587
00:28:57,039 --> 00:28:57,440
Speaker 2: Perfect.

588
00:28:57,480 --> 00:28:57,839
Speaker 1: Yeah.

589
00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:00,279
Speaker 3: And so they're like, great, let's do it. So they

590
00:29:00,319 --> 00:29:01,839
cut it down to what is an hour and forty

591
00:29:01,839 --> 00:29:03,200
five minutes, forty minutes.

592
00:29:03,039 --> 00:29:05,079
Speaker 2: Something like that. I think John Landis said he learned

593
00:29:05,079 --> 00:29:08,720
a lot from that experience, that idea of you can't

594
00:29:08,759 --> 00:29:12,079
just dump the whole thing, no matter how good they are, right,

595
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:14,039
you can't dump that whole thing on somebody. Right.

596
00:29:14,599 --> 00:29:17,079
Speaker 3: So they go to show it to Ned Tannant and

597
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:21,480
he's got his arms crossed, not laughing, not enjoying it.

598
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:24,400
And it gets to the part where Otter has been

599
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:27,359
sent to the hotel room to meet up with the

600
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:29,839
bad guys, right, and they jump him and they beat

601
00:29:29,839 --> 00:29:33,000
the crap out of him, and he's like, this is

602
00:29:33,039 --> 00:29:35,880
not funny. And John Lindas is like, well, it's not

603
00:29:36,079 --> 00:29:38,599
supposed to be funny because this is the part where

604
00:29:38,599 --> 00:29:41,720
he gets beat up and it sort of gives them

605
00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:44,480
the incentive to get back and you know, and Ned

606
00:29:44,519 --> 00:29:47,039
Tennant says, oh, so we're making comedies that are supposed

607
00:29:47,039 --> 00:29:47,759
to not be funny.

608
00:29:48,119 --> 00:29:50,039
Speaker 4: John Lennas is like, man, this is not going well

609
00:29:50,079 --> 00:29:51,200
at all, right.

610
00:29:51,359 --> 00:29:53,759
Speaker 3: And so finally he gets up, he leaves. They're like, fine,

611
00:29:53,799 --> 00:29:55,599
do whatever you want with it, you know, make your

612
00:29:55,839 --> 00:29:58,480
unfunny comedy, like man, this guy doesn't get it at all,

613
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:00,559
Like he does not think it's funny. So they pre

614
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:03,160
screen it and it's a bunch of college kids, a

615
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:05,440
bunch of fraternity guys in fact, uh huh. And John

616
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:07,960
Lanna says it's the greatest reception of any movie he's

617
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:08,680
ever seen.

618
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:09,200
Speaker 2: In his life.

619
00:30:09,799 --> 00:30:13,359
Speaker 3: They were going bananas, he said, they were laughing so

620
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:16,279
much that they were missing jokes and missing funny scenes

621
00:30:16,279 --> 00:30:19,559
that were coming right, and they were just howling at

622
00:30:19,559 --> 00:30:22,039
this movie. Once that happened, he's like, I think we

623
00:30:22,079 --> 00:30:24,519
got a hit, Fellas. Yeah, and it goes from a

624
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:27,440
three million dollar budget movie to was it make one

625
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:29,519
hundred and forty one million dollars worldwide?

626
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:32,519
Speaker 4: Yeah, And it's the godfather of college comedies.

627
00:30:32,039 --> 00:30:35,519
Speaker 2: It is. Yeah. Sometimes movie studio executives don't know what

628
00:30:35,519 --> 00:30:36,400
the heck they're talking about.

629
00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 4: That's true.

630
00:30:37,119 --> 00:30:37,480
Speaker 2: Yeah.

631
00:30:37,599 --> 00:30:40,720
Speaker 3: John Landis made one comment that I thought was particularly interesting.

632
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:43,200
He said, when we started out with Animal House, for

633
00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:46,599
a while, this movie belonged to Mattie Simmons and to

634
00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:50,519
Ivan Rightman, and then it became Harold Ramis's, Doug Kenney's,

635
00:30:50,599 --> 00:30:53,240
and Chris Miller's, and then for a little while it

636
00:30:53,279 --> 00:30:56,640
became mine, like it was my movie, right, But once

637
00:30:56,680 --> 00:31:00,759
it was released, it became John Blushi's movie. Oh yeah,

638
00:31:00,799 --> 00:31:02,160
and I just thought that's really cool.

639
00:31:02,319 --> 00:31:06,240
Speaker 2: Well said, yeah, that's very good. Well said so Revenge

640
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,440
of the Nerds. As I mentioned earlier, I could not

641
00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:11,960
figure out how this movie got made, And it turns

642
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:13,759
out it was because it had a producer that was

643
00:31:13,839 --> 00:31:18,440
the air of a fortune, right right. And its budget

644
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:23,440
in nineteen eighty four was eight million, and it's gross

645
00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:27,559
worldwide was forty million, almost forty one million. Okay, so

646
00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:32,440
one hundred million less than Animal House. Sure, but we're

647
00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:37,440
talking about nineteen eighty four arguably the best year in

648
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:39,519
eighties movie history.

649
00:31:39,839 --> 00:31:42,559
Speaker 3: Yes, deff Dave is happy to hear you say that, Yes, yes,

650
00:31:42,599 --> 00:31:46,640
but you're right. It was a jam packed year at

651
00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:49,160
the movie theater. In talking about Revenge of the Nerds,

652
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:52,240
it was kind of under the radar because the studio

653
00:31:52,359 --> 00:31:54,880
thought the big comedy that year was going to be

654
00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:55,839
Johnny Dangerously.

655
00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:58,720
Speaker 2: I love Johnny Dangers I do too, right, Michael Keen.

656
00:31:58,759 --> 00:32:01,240
Speaker 3: It's got some stars in it, but they were paying

657
00:32:01,279 --> 00:32:04,160
more attention to Johnny Dangerously, and this is this one

658
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:06,039
kind of flew under the radar as just kind of

659
00:32:06,039 --> 00:32:10,519
a dumb boob college funny movie, right, and it ends

660
00:32:10,559 --> 00:32:13,200
up being one of the big comedy successes of.

661
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:13,960
Speaker 4: Nineteen eighty four.

662
00:32:14,519 --> 00:32:15,240
Speaker 2: Very memorable.

663
00:32:15,319 --> 00:32:18,839
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, and Johnny dangerously I liked it.

664
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:20,799
Speaker 2: I liked it too, But people don't talk about it.

665
00:32:20,799 --> 00:32:24,160
It doesn't have the stay power as far as iconic movies.

666
00:32:24,319 --> 00:32:26,480
It doesn't have the stay power of Revenge of the Nerds.

667
00:32:27,279 --> 00:32:28,960
Speaker 4: I agree, Yeah, I agree.

668
00:32:29,359 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 2: Okay, So we know that both of these movies were successes,

669
00:32:32,079 --> 00:32:35,799
and both of them made attempts to pour out that

670
00:32:35,839 --> 00:32:39,279
success if you will. Right, there were no follow up

671
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:45,160
movies for National Lampoon Animal House, but many people may

672
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:49,519
not know there was a follow up TV series.

673
00:32:50,039 --> 00:32:53,319
Speaker 3: Yes, the TV series which they owned the rights to,

674
00:32:53,519 --> 00:32:55,880
so they could have easily called it Animal House, they

675
00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:58,920
chose to make the ridiculous decision of changing the title

676
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:02,440
to the Dell to House Delta House. And get this,

677
00:33:02,839 --> 00:33:04,400
so I told you this story the other day. So

678
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:06,480
they kind of get members of the cast.

679
00:33:06,599 --> 00:33:09,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, they get Flounder, they get d Day, they get

680
00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:13,279
Dean Warmer. Yeah, you get Dean Warmer. I mean they

681
00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:15,519
got a lot of the original cast in there. You know,

682
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:17,559
they didn't get it was John Landis. They did not

683
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,799
and they didn't get John Belushi, right. A guy named

684
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:24,519
Josh Mostel played the Blue Tarski part and a guy

685
00:33:24,599 --> 00:33:27,960
named Peter Fox played the Otter part. But as a

686
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:31,519
short lived show, there is one interesting feature of a

687
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:35,599
new actor or actress in this movie. You were telling

688
00:33:35,599 --> 00:33:37,960
me about how crazy it is, how they got this,

689
00:33:38,319 --> 00:33:39,319
how they got this actress.

690
00:33:39,359 --> 00:33:41,599
Speaker 3: So they're looking for the pretty girl to fill the

691
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:44,160
Babs role, and they found this girl working at a

692
00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:48,000
grocery store, working at the supermarkets, working at the supermarket.

693
00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:51,279
They hired her to be in this TV show and

694
00:33:51,359 --> 00:33:53,319
she's like, what do I do about my job at

695
00:33:53,319 --> 00:33:55,519
the grocery store? And they're, well, honey, you need to

696
00:33:55,599 --> 00:33:59,799
quit because you've got a future in TV and film.

697
00:34:00,119 --> 00:34:00,519
Speaker 2: Huh.

698
00:34:00,599 --> 00:34:02,960
Speaker 4: That woman's name is Michelle Pfeiffer.

699
00:34:04,599 --> 00:34:05,240
Speaker 2: Mind blown.

700
00:34:05,839 --> 00:34:10,599
Speaker 3: What Michelle Pfiffer got her start her first images on

701
00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:12,119
any kind of camera?

702
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:16,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Delta House yep. Nineteen seventy nine through nineteen

703
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:20,239
seventy nine. That's how long this one lasts, right, She

704
00:34:20,519 --> 00:34:24,239
was the key hottie in the Delta House and then

705
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:28,000
within just what like a year, she is acting with

706
00:34:28,079 --> 00:34:29,960
al Pacino and freaking Scarface.

707
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:34,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, Scarface eighty three, Catwoman ninety two.

708
00:34:35,519 --> 00:34:39,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, Delta House not a not a big success. So

709
00:34:40,079 --> 00:34:42,760
what about Revenge of the Nerds.

710
00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:44,239
Speaker 7: Ow Nerds as good as you?

711
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:48,920
Speaker 3: Yes, okay, So here's what I'm gonna say about Revenge

712
00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:50,800
of the Nerds. Our buddy Jeff Johnson told me he's

713
00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:53,400
got the four pack Nerd collection.

714
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:53,920
Speaker 2: Right.

715
00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:56,239
Speaker 3: So in nineteen eighty seven you get Revenge of the

716
00:34:56,280 --> 00:35:00,360
Nerds Part two yep, which actually it has Courtney Thorn's Smith.

717
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:01,159
Speaker 4: They go to the beach.

718
00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:03,880
Speaker 3: There's kind of a funny joke about them staying at

719
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:08,800
the hotel Coral Essex. But that movie had its laughs.

720
00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:09,599
Speaker 4: It was funny.

721
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:12,280
Speaker 3: Now Gilbert broke his leg and so he couldn't go

722
00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:14,599
with them. So you're you're down goose right, you don't

723
00:35:14,599 --> 00:35:15,280
have anything anwa.

724
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:17,760
Speaker 2: Anthony Edwards was like, I am a bigger star than this.

725
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:19,719
Speaker 3: Now I just did Top Gun in case you guys

726
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,159
don't know that. But then you have two others. One

727
00:35:22,159 --> 00:35:23,480
of them is like Nerds in Love.

728
00:35:24,639 --> 00:35:27,559
Speaker 2: Revenge of the Nerds three, the Next Generation came out

729
00:35:27,639 --> 00:35:33,440
in nineteen ninety two, and Revenge of the Nerds. Nerds

730
00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:35,519
in Love came out in nineteen.

731
00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:37,039
Speaker 4: Four, nineteen ninety four.

732
00:35:37,599 --> 00:35:41,199
Speaker 2: Wow, so riding that for all that they could. I'm

733
00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:44,000
pretty sure that that last one was a made for

734
00:35:44,079 --> 00:35:48,760
TV movie. But three point eight on IMDb, Matt, I have.

735
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:50,559
Speaker 4: Not watched that one. I have no plans to see

736
00:35:50,599 --> 00:35:50,880
that one.

737
00:35:51,119 --> 00:35:54,320
Speaker 2: Well, they got back Robert Carrodine for that, Curtis Armstrong,

738
00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:58,119
Julie Montgomery, what, yeah, all back for that. It's just

739
00:35:58,159 --> 00:35:58,960
that it was terrible.

740
00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:01,599
Speaker 3: Hey, By the way, I one other story I need

741
00:36:01,599 --> 00:36:03,840
to follow up on before we do our final judgment. Yes,

742
00:36:04,199 --> 00:36:07,639
at the end of Animal House, in the closing credits,

743
00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:10,920
there's a you know this is a Universal picture when

744
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:13,760
it talks about who did what at the end, you know,

745
00:36:14,159 --> 00:36:16,119
at the end of the movie when it shows Babs

746
00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:21,119
says that she worked as a tour guide at Universal Studios, right,

747
00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:23,840
and it says ask for Babs.

748
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:25,199
Speaker 4: When you go to Universal Studios.

749
00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:25,519
Speaker 5: Right.

750
00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:31,079
Speaker 3: Yeah, so Universal Studios actually had some sort of incentive

751
00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:35,440
when you ask for Babs at Universal Studios. Okay, now

752
00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:38,599
here's the deal. I couldn't find anywhere concrete where it

753
00:36:38,679 --> 00:36:41,280
said you got ten dollars off your ticket or you

754
00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:44,000
got an extra ride or you got free popcorn or anything.

755
00:36:44,039 --> 00:36:44,840
Speaker 4: I couldn't find.

756
00:36:44,679 --> 00:36:47,360
Speaker 2: Anything signed picture of Babs well.

757
00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:52,199
Speaker 3: Right, right, but I did see a press release that

758
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:55,559
had been released in nineteen eighty nine, ten years later.

759
00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:58,360
Over ten years later, they were no longer honoring the

760
00:36:58,519 --> 00:37:01,440
ask for Bab's incentive at Universal Studios.

761
00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:02,400
Speaker 2: Stupid Universal.

762
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:03,840
Speaker 4: So I don't know.

763
00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:06,639
Speaker 3: I think maybe it was kind of the discretion of

764
00:37:06,639 --> 00:37:08,280
the manager on duty at that day.

765
00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:11,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, and probably it had become what do they say, viral,

766
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:15,119
not back then, but that it was like everybody knew

767
00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:17,800
the secret at this point. It wasn't an inside joke anymore.

768
00:37:18,119 --> 00:37:20,480
Speaker 3: If I go to Universal Studios, you can guarantee I'm

769
00:37:20,519 --> 00:37:21,760
gonna ask for Rabs.

770
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:24,639
Speaker 2: Okay, before we get into final judgment, I got a

771
00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:27,599
question for you. Okay, you've just gone through Pledge Week. Yes,

772
00:37:27,679 --> 00:37:30,079
and you've got two offers. Yes, one is from the

773
00:37:30,079 --> 00:37:33,079
Delta House and the others from the try Lamps. Yeah,

774
00:37:33,119 --> 00:37:34,599
which one are you going to pledge with?

775
00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:40,119
Speaker 3: I'm pledging try lamb Okay, why because I care about

776
00:37:40,159 --> 00:37:43,599
graduating and that's full of smart people who are going

777
00:37:43,679 --> 00:37:44,239
to graduate.

778
00:37:44,519 --> 00:37:44,679
Speaker 2: Huh.

779
00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:46,840
Speaker 3: The Delta House is full of people are about.

780
00:37:46,639 --> 00:37:47,639
Speaker 4: To get kicked out of school.

781
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:50,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I want to graduate and get my college degree.

782
00:37:51,079 --> 00:37:55,880
Speaker 2: Right. If I had confidence in my own bootstraps success, right,

783
00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:58,239
then I definitely would go with the Delta House. That

784
00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:02,119
would be the most fun. But if I wanted the

785
00:38:02,159 --> 00:38:06,599
most likelihood of financial success, you bet your booty. Not

786
00:38:06,639 --> 00:38:08,360
only that I'm going to get good grades, but I'm

787
00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:10,159
going to meet all the guys who are going to

788
00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:14,280
be running the world in the next twenty years.

789
00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:17,760
Speaker 3: Oh guaranteed, Wormser is out there. He's a CEO of

790
00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:18,960
some tech company somewhere.

791
00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:22,960
Speaker 2: Absolutely. Probably not, he is probably retired, sitting on a

792
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:25,400
beach earning twenty percent nice.

793
00:38:25,559 --> 00:38:28,119
Speaker 3: All right, well here we are. It's final judgment time.

794
00:38:28,679 --> 00:38:29,960
I think it's your turn to go first.

795
00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:33,599
Speaker 2: Okay, Well, as I mentioned when I watched The Revenge

796
00:38:33,639 --> 00:38:36,679
of the Nerds, I was kind of a board a

797
00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:39,159
little bit for the first half hour. Then they came

798
00:38:39,199 --> 00:38:42,320
in strong on the party scene. I mean, all of

799
00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:45,440
a sudden, I'm laughing out loud multiple times. I'm like, okay, good,

800
00:38:45,559 --> 00:38:50,079
the movie has come alive. We've built our character relationship

801
00:38:50,119 --> 00:38:53,480
and now we're really seeing them take off. And they

802
00:38:53,519 --> 00:38:56,320
had good funny scenes after that the competition was good,

803
00:38:56,719 --> 00:39:03,480
and then they finished a pretty weak note. It was

804
00:39:04,199 --> 00:39:08,199
not you know, when you have a Cinderella story, which

805
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:10,320
both of these movies are, she's got to have the

806
00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:12,320
Prince chaser at the end, right, you got to have

807
00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:16,159
Rocky fighting his way to go in the distance. And

808
00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:19,559
with this you just kind of get a whisper end,

809
00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:22,119
you know. And I think that they they had shot

810
00:39:22,199 --> 00:39:25,440
scenes where it was going to be a more aggressive ending,

811
00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:28,719
a more powerful ending for the nerds, and even we

812
00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:30,880
were going to learn that Stan was actually a nerd

813
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:32,719
at heart and had a brother who was a nerd

814
00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:35,559
who would come save him from the toughness of the

815
00:39:35,639 --> 00:39:38,079
other nerds. This is what these are the deleted scenes

816
00:39:38,119 --> 00:39:40,800
that we're getting to wow, okay, but instead we just

817
00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:45,079
kind of have this awkward, ad libbed speech by Anthony

818
00:39:45,199 --> 00:39:50,119
Edwards and a not very cathartic ending. It's just it's like, hey,

819
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:52,360
we're here now, when we're here to stay the end?

820
00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:55,800
And on the other side of that, you've got Animal House,

821
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:59,760
which ends in what I would describe as a battle scene.

822
00:40:00,039 --> 00:40:02,920
I mean, it was amazing what they did in the carnival.

823
00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:06,800
Carnival they've got you know, Kevin Bacon has smashed flat.

824
00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:10,119
Things are exploding, people are flying up in the air.

825
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:14,559
Building buildings are being knocked over, dogs and cats living together,

826
00:40:15,079 --> 00:40:19,400
mass hysteria. Right, And so to me, this was a landslide,

827
00:40:19,519 --> 00:40:22,000
a landslide for National lampoon.

828
00:40:22,159 --> 00:40:24,800
Speaker 3: Animal House really okay, all right, Well, I'm going to

829
00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:28,159
disagree with you. So I do believe that Animal House

830
00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:32,400
is the godfather of college comedies. There is no denying.

831
00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:36,440
It is way more impactful. It's given birth to more movies,

832
00:40:36,559 --> 00:40:38,760
way more movies than Revenge of the Nerds. But I

833
00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:42,719
can't escape my eleven year old self of wanting to

834
00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:45,519
catch this movie on Cinemax because it was just naughty

835
00:40:45,599 --> 00:40:48,239
enough for me at the time to want to watch

836
00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:51,079
a little bit of you know, Revenge from.

837
00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:53,800
Speaker 2: The Nerds, a little bit of voyeurism, a little bit

838
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:55,239
of inappropriateness for me.

839
00:40:55,599 --> 00:40:58,639
Speaker 3: The comedy of Booger really worked for me at that time.

840
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:00,599
Speaker 2: It is eleven year old humor.

841
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:04,360
Speaker 3: Eleven year old me is voting for Revenge of the Notes.

842
00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:07,480
Speaker 2: Well, very good, very good, All right, guys, Well tell

00:41:17,199 --> 00:41:20,639
It has been fantastic. Had an email from a new

847
00:41:20,639 --> 00:41:24,880
friend in Australia we had just gotten introduced to our podcast,

848
00:41:25,199 --> 00:41:29,519
who gave us warm and wonderful reviews from down under.

849
00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:33,400
Thank you very much. That's Jason mack down in Australia.

850
00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:35,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then we also got an email from a

851
00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:37,800
guy named David Kaisse I think I pronounced that kiss

852
00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:40,239
and he likes to listen to us when he goes

853
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:43,000
on walks, and he wanted us to do a podcast

854
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:44,079
on Dave Matthews Band.

855
00:41:44,119 --> 00:41:47,719
Speaker 2: So yeah, and I mean hey, I was a huge

856
00:41:48,119 --> 00:41:51,599
Dave Matthews band fan back in the day. But Under

857
00:41:51,639 --> 00:41:53,920
the Table and Dreaming one of my favorite albums of

858
00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:57,360
all time. I would as I would love to talk

859
00:41:57,400 --> 00:41:59,599
about the Dave Matthews Band and it may I mean

860
00:41:59,639 --> 00:42:01,599
heck that maybe one of those. Are they worth the

861
00:42:01,639 --> 00:42:05,199
hate albums? Because as powerful and popular as they were,

862
00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:07,440
they get a lot of bad press these days. It's

863
00:42:07,559 --> 00:42:12,199
kind of disturbing because they're amazing musicians, amazing.

864
00:42:12,559 --> 00:42:13,880
Speaker 3: That'd be if I want to do maybe we'll do

865
00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:14,639
that one down the road.

866
00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:15,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, be fantastic.

00:42:16,519 --> 00:42:18,760
Speaker 3: Can you believe what we got on the horizon For

00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:21,239

Speaker 2: Guys, we are jumping feet first into the incredible albums

jump into some of the incredible albums of nineteen ninety four.

881
00:43:09,199 --> 00:43:13,400
