40
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:48,640

41
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 5: John came yesterday because we hadn't seen it yet, but

42
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 5: now I think we've all seen it at this point.

43
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 1: But he was like, it starts off and you're like,

44
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 1: what's going on?

45
00:01:56,680 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 2: And then all of a sudden everything goes sideway.

46
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:03,280
Speaker 1: Which one I mean sideways for real. And it reminded

47
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 1: me of two different things when I was watching it.

48
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 1: And my wife came in when I was watching the screener,

49
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:11,360
Speaker 1: and so she starts to looking it up. She's like,

50
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 1: it reminds you of those two things because it's directly

51
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 1: related to Can I talk about either one of those?

52
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:22,440
Speaker 1: It's there's a Fargo reference with the sheriff that died.

53
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 1: Is the detective from Fargo to the team or the movie, right,

54
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 1: that was her last name in the.

55
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 3: Movie, yes, yes, yes, yes. And then there's a I

56
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:34,079
Speaker 3: was in Fargo too, Yes you were in, which I

57
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 3: mean you can't amazing.

58
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,240
Speaker 1: And then there's a John Wick tie into and that

59
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:41,840
Speaker 1: that's the writer from John Wick right. And I felt

60
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:45,119
Speaker 1: all of that watching the movie before I knew anything about.

61
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 3: It, yes, which I thought was great. There's so many

62
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 3: movies that informed this film that, for you know, this

63
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 3: is a fun movie. Yes, I don't want to make

64
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 3: it sound like we're making you go to film school,

65
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:01,959
Speaker 3: but does does anybody remember High Planes Drifter?

66
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:03,800
Speaker 2: Totally?

67
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 3: I mean I kept thinking about that because he's got

68
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 3: the whole town and he's got to get them with

69
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:12,320
Speaker 3: them and they're right yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah.

70
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:17,080
Speaker 3: And uh. Then there's do you guys know this great

71
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:20,400
Speaker 3: movie it's often on streaming. It's called The Taking of

72
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 3: Pelham one two three, Yes, math out Walter Math and

73
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 3: it's an old film.

74
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 1: And they didn't it.

75
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 3: They did redo it. Yeah, and the redo was good too,

76
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:37,960
Speaker 3: by the way. But anyway, it's like it's because the

77
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 3: it's because the the guy who wrote it, Derek Cole said,

78
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 3: who wrote the John Wick films and he wrote nobody.

79
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 2: Uh.

80
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 3: And the guy who directed it, Ben Wheatley, this British director.

81
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 3: They're just nerds. They're just movie nerds.

82
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 1: How did you become this amazing anti hero that nobody

Speaker 1: sees coming?

84
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 3: Well, because nobody sees me coming for real.

85
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 2: Well, so in the movie that your character ulysses. What

86
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,240

Speaker 2: Right with this not normal way of policing. You know,

93
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 2: like when you get in the car and you have

130
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 2: When I started out live what was that? Who was

131
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:06,239
Speaker 2: the cast?

132
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 3: What was two different casts? I was there. I was

133
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 3: only there for four years, but there were two different casts.

134
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 3: One was Jan Hooks and Nora Dunn and and Phil

135
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 3: that crew John Lovett's and then it was Phil Hartman

136
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 3: the whole time, and then it was Farley and Spa

137
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 3: Sandler and Spade. So I kind of and rock and

138
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 3: and I wrote there and I was occasionally on the camera,

139
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 3: but not much. Mostly I was a writer, and that's

140
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 3: what I wanted to be. That's why I got into

141
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 3: show business, to be a writer.

142
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:41,479
Speaker 1: Are those you doing? Nobody?

143
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,040
Speaker 3: So Hollywood, you know how hard it is to get

144
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:50,479
Speaker 3: a movie made. So I'm doing Saul. I have this

145
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 3: notion I could do an action movie. I'd be willing

146
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 3: to train him in good shape. I never used my body.

147
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:58,160
Speaker 3: I was a comedy writer. I didn't hurt myself because

148
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 3: all I did was sit around and eat chicken and

149
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 3: make jokes and uh so, uh so I'm start training

150
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,159
Speaker 3: whatever we get a script. It was a lot of work.

151
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 3: And then I go, well, I should train, Let's get started.

152
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 3: I want to do all my own fighting. But the

153
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 3: whole time I'm training is very embarrassing. I'm you know,

154
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 3: it's hard to train in a stunt gym with real

155
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 3: stunt people who that's what they do, that's all they do,

156
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 3: and they're just amazing. I mean they could stand there,

157
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,560
Speaker 3: they can jump in the air, flip around and land

158
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:29,680
Speaker 3: on their back on something.

159
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 1: I heard you had to choreograph that bus fight and

160
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:33,520
Speaker 1: nobody for like two years.

161
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 3: Well I trained for two years. We choreographed it for

162
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 3: probably a year, but for fun for years. It's fun.

163
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:42,640
Speaker 1: It's in that it's one of the greatest fight scenes,

164
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 1: but it seems like you're always getting in fights in

165
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 1: close quarters now.

166
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeh yeah, yeah, yeah, it's really fun to play.

167
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 3: First of all, I want to be a guy who

168
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 3: makes mistakes, you know in the fight, like hits his head, yeah,

169
00:07:55,000 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 3: hits his hands, missus, missus with a punch, and so anyway,

170
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 3: I I trained really hard to do it, and the

171
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:08,239
Speaker 3: whole time I'm training it's very embarrassing. But I'm thinking

172
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 3: the whole time, if I get to do this, I'm

173
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 3: not thinking about making a lot of money or being

174
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 3: a movie star or anything. I'm thinking about Sandler and

175
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:23,960
Speaker 3: Spade watching it, Conan O'Brien and all these guys going, wait,

176
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:29,520
Speaker 3: what just happened? What is on TV right now? Is

177
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:35,560
Speaker 3: that Bob Odenkirk, the writer, what happened? What went wrong?

178
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:39,120
Speaker 1: I've heard you on Flying the Wall with Carving, and yeah,

179
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:40,920
Speaker 1: they seem mesmerized by this.

180
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 3: This they don't know what they don't know.

181
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 1: You get another movie where it's just strange such but

182
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:49,320
Speaker 1: I love my career.

183
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 2: This guy total.

184
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 5: I mean, he wrote Rolling Stone Magazine rated the greatest

185
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 5: SNL sketches of all time, and number one was Vanned

186
00:08:58,120 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 5: Down by the River, the sketch that.

187
00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 2: He I didn't know you wrote that. I was going

188
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 2: to ask you, what are some legendary sketches that you wrote?

189
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 2: Van Back down the River?

190
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the one. I mean. Look, I I struggled

191
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:11,440
Speaker 3: writing at SML. You you've all read and heard the

192
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 3: stories about how you know intense that place is. Yeah,

193
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,960
Speaker 3: and when you go there, you're young. You're usually between

194
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:21,200
Speaker 3: the age of twenty three and thirty, and it's your

195
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,560
Speaker 3: first job and and and you're fighting like hell to

196
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 3: keep it. And so it was hard for me, but

197
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 3: I helped with the Bears super Fans. Oh yeah, that

198
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:36,719
Speaker 3: was Robert Smigel, but I wrote a lot of it.

199
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:40,840
Speaker 4: When you when you brought up Nora Dunn, there's a

200
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 4: sketch that lives rent Free and oh yeah, which one?

201
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 4: It just leaves rent Free And it's a one or

202
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:48,360
Speaker 4: two lines. It's Phil Hartman is Barbara Bush and Norah

203
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:50,680
Speaker 4: Dunn's interviewing and saying, are you proud of your son?

204
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,760
Speaker 4: And she goes, oh whatever, she goes, that is he's

205
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:56,720
Speaker 4: my husband, my son.

206
00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 2: I don't know what. I just proud.

207
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:04,319
Speaker 5: But if I could just continue bragging on my friend.

208
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:05,679
Speaker 3: That's why you're here.

209
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:06,080
Speaker 2: Yes.

210
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 5: So then so he writes the greatest SNL sketch of

211
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:12,040
Speaker 5: all time. He then goes on to create, in my opinion,

212
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:14,800
Speaker 5: the greatest sketch comedy show of all time, Mister Show,

213
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,400
Speaker 5: which which was a cult thing that was with people

214
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 5: David David who's married to Amber Tamblin, whose dad was

215
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:24,239
Speaker 5: in Westside story.

216
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 2: Side.

217
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:31,359
Speaker 1: Sorry degrees, but mister.

218
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 5: Show, in my opinion, the greatest sketch comedy show ever created,

219
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,840
Speaker 5: which inspired an entire generation.

220
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 2: Of comedy people.

221
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 5: He then goes on and he's on the greatest show

222
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:42,560
Speaker 5: of all time.

223
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 2: Breaking Bad.

224
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,079
Speaker 5: I mean, like, I think one of the greatest shows

225
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,920
Speaker 5: of all time. I mean I think it's like Sopranos,

226
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:49,800
Speaker 5: Breaking Bad, Like.

227
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,600
Speaker 4: You know, Breaking Bad, Breaking back is the news right now,

228
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,880
Speaker 4: do you guys? Because Breaking Bad in Game I guess

229
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:57,599
Speaker 4: they listed Breaking Bad is the number one show of

230
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,200
Speaker 4: all time. The Game of Thrones people got pissed. So

231
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,439
Speaker 4: now the Game of Thrones people are going on and

232
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,240
Speaker 4: giving bad ratings to Breaking Bad.

233
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, right, Game.

234
00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:11,920
Speaker 3: Of Thrones fans are trying.

235
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,520
Speaker 4: They spin off Breaking Bad and give him his own TV.

236
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,440
Speaker 1: And I cannot say the same thing about the Game

237
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:20,360
Speaker 1: of Thrones spinoffs. They're not as they're not as meaty,

238
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 1: they're just But you got in the movie, which is cool.

239
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was waiting for by the way, I know,

240
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 3: I know. And it's a shame, Yeah it is good.

241
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 2: Shame.

242
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, But the normal, the movie normal is so Derek

243
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 3: Colstead writes these great action films and he sent me

244
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,960
Speaker 3: three outlines for films that I could consider, and this

245
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,439
Speaker 3: is the one that had the suspense element, that kind

246
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,080
Speaker 3: of mystery, Yellen, and he doesn't you know, I mean,

247
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,400
Speaker 3: he gets right to the action, which is great. And

248
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:58,719
Speaker 3: I love that. But I just wanted to act a

249
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:04,320
Speaker 3: little and I get too, and uh, and then we

250
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:07,160
Speaker 3: fight and then all we do is fight, and then

251
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:11,320
Speaker 3: Ben Wheatley, this director is just a perfect director. He

252
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:15,840
Speaker 3: made a movie called Free Fire. He's made a field

253
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:19,080
Speaker 3: in England. He's made so many films and uh, just

254
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 3: has so much fun with the fighting and the actions.

255
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 2: Let me ask you something that behind the scenes of

256
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 2: Hollywood kind of when you watch the movie, you know

257
00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:29,439
Speaker 2: it stars you, but it says something like I can't

258
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,080
Speaker 2: remember the words like story by Bob.

259
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,200
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, Well that's because Derek sent me the outline,

260
00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:36,679
Speaker 3: and he had sent me three outlines, and the other

261
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 3: two were pure action beginning to end.

262
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:38,960
Speaker 2: You know.

263
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 3: Guy gets in a car, accident, gets out of the car,

264
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:45,559
Speaker 3: chases guns, it just goes and that's fun and maybe

265
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:47,960
Speaker 3: I'll do one of those one day. But this one

266
00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:51,959
Speaker 3: had this like he's a share of something weird's happening.

267
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,680
Speaker 3: He doesn't know what it is. There's some clues, but

268
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 3: he doesn't want to look at it. He doesn't want

269
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,360
Speaker 3: to think about it. He's a guy who's kind of

270
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 3: removed himself from life, and then something goes wrong and

271
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:04,720
Speaker 3: he has to confront. You know, he has to take action.

272
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 3: He has to engage with people in the world. He

273
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 3: can't just sit in the corner and hide and then

274
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:13,720
Speaker 3: it's just action.

275
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 1: It takes me a second when it goes sideways to

276
00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 1: figure out why it's going sideways.

277
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,600
Speaker 2: Wait, wait, wait, how does that? How do you get

278
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 2: that title to story by?

279
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:24,800
Speaker 3: Oh? Well, I said, can I work with you to

280
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 3: build out the suspense element? Why there's money here? So

281
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:32,560
Speaker 3: a lot of that story came after and so I

282
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 3: contributed to the outline of what the story was. What

283
00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:42,240
Speaker 3: He didn't quite have all that nailed down, and so

284
00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 3: I helped with that.

285
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:45,679
Speaker 2: So then you bring a writer in and then the

286
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:46,360
Speaker 2: red Well.

287
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:50,840
Speaker 3: No, so Derek had the outline. I liked this suspense element,

288
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:53,679
Speaker 3: and then I say, I have a bunch of ideas

289
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 3: for it. He used enough of them to say I'm

290
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:59,319
Speaker 3: going to give you credit. He didn't have to give

291
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:03,240
Speaker 3: me credit. What he did he chose to for the story.

292
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:06,840
Speaker 3: And then he writes the script. And I can write

293
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,800
Speaker 3: a script too, but he wrote the script. He wrote

294
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 3: the jokes in this. Yeah. And I've written a lot

295
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:14,840
Speaker 3: of movie scripts, but not many have been made.

296
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,000
Speaker 1: Well, do you see there being how I say this

297
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 1: without giving this away, could there be a sequel for

298
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 1: this character?

299
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 3: Yeah? I me too, Me too. I love this guy.

300
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:29,600
Speaker 3: I mean one of my goals has been trying to

301
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:33,040
Speaker 3: play characters that are more closer to me in age,

302
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:36,200
Speaker 3: because I mean Saul was like I was. Guys, I

303
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 3: know I was too old for that role.

304
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:40,520
Speaker 2: I know.

305
00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 3: Well you didn't see it because we see gied my

306
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:50,600
Speaker 3: face in any of the scenes where it's a flashback,

307
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 3: they c g I out my uh lines on my face. Look.

308
00:14:57,600 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 3: I told the guys when they said we're going to

309
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:01,720
Speaker 3: write a song show, I said, you, guys, I'm fifty

310
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 3: years old. Take that. Please take that into account. And

311
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 3: they didn't. And I mean he was great fun to play.

312
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:10,520
Speaker 3: Saul was great fun to put but he was younger

313
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:12,960
Speaker 3: than me, and he made a lot of impetuous choices

314
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 3: that I'm like, come on, grow up. So wouldn't that

Speaker 3: It's uh, it's only going to get better, you know that, right?

318
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:39,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, because that's sure. I saw some either an interview

319
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:43,720
Speaker 4: or something with it was it. It's uh, Gilly Gilly,

320
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,560
Speaker 4: he said. He said that he needed his storylines to

321
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 4: be slow and reminded me of like slow paced story

322
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 4: building Storry Billy. Yeah, and he needs like seven years

323
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 4: of that.

324
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:52,520
Speaker 2: Yeah.

325
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 3: Then right, and then the dominoes start to fall.

326
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:56,280
Speaker 2: Yeah.

327
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 3: Right, it just going faster and faster.

328
00:15:58,840 --> 00:15:59,400
Speaker 2: Yeah.

329
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:04,520
Speaker 3: He's one of the great writers of our time, certainly

330
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:08,040
Speaker 3: of TV. I got very I got very lucky. That's

331
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 3: how I had this career.

332
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,040
Speaker 1: But you know what's been happening before a very eyes

333
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 1: you were becoming our American Liam Neesen.

334
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:18,160
Speaker 3: Oh good, Yeah, yeah, I'll be I'll take that, you know.

335
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:22,160
Speaker 3: I I want to do different things, you know, but

336
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,640
Speaker 3: opening this up, having the opportunity to do action first

337
00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 3: of all, actions more fun than I thought.

338
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 2: It was.

339
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,640
Speaker 3: Like I thought, this is a crazy thing. I'm gonna propose.

340
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 3: If I can pull it off, wouldn't that be nuts?

341
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:36,400
Speaker 3: That'll make me laugh. If it doesn't work, it'll still

342
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 3: make me laugh, you know, It'll like what am I risking.

343
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 3: I'm not a movie star.

344
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 2: You know you're a movie star.

345
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 3: It doesn't work, it doesn't matter. But but it's just

346
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 3: it's kind of like sketch comedy doing an action scene

347
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 3: like the bus the bus fight and nobody. I remember

348
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 3: sitting there thinking, this is the closest to a comedy

349
00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 3: writer's room that I've been in since I was in

350
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 3: a writer's room at SNL or whatever, mister show whatever.

351
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 3: Because you got a bunch of mostly guys, but there's

352
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:11,800
Speaker 3: some women and they're sitting around and you're doing this

353
00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:14,680
Speaker 3: thing and his plan, and then you're you're laughing a lot,

354
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:18,600
Speaker 3: I'm telling you. After the director says cut, everyone laughs.

355
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:23,160
Speaker 3: There's no other It's just so funny what you're doing.

356
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 3: It's so nuts.

357
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:28,640
Speaker 1: There is a like sinister, dark hilariousness to the new

358
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:32,160
Speaker 1: movie Normal Too, where it's like there is just have

359
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:36,639
Speaker 1: to laugh because it's so over the freaking Yeah. I

360
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,440
Speaker 1: mean it's even over the top for a John Wick movie.

361
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 3: I think in spots, yeah it's Normal goes to places

362
00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:46,360
Speaker 3: that you usually only see in horror films.

363
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but you.

364
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,560
Speaker 3: Do, you'll recognize it as a comically over the top.

365
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:53,399
Speaker 2: Plus there's some really good death scenes.

366
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:56,479
Speaker 3: There are some great ones. Yeah, Ben Wheatley, that's you

367
00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 3: can thank him for.

368
00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 2: That should be really happy. Can you are you willing

369
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 2: to talk about about your personal life about some stuff.

370
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:06,480
Speaker 2: I asked, because uh, I have I've talked about it

371
00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:07,879
Speaker 2: in the show before. So my dad died of a

372
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 2: heart attack at sixty six, and I freaked out, and

373
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:11,359
Speaker 2: so I went and turns out I have like this

374
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 2: calcium score that's high, higher and higher, and I'm like,

375
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,480
Speaker 2: how do I stop that? So I do everything I do,

376
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:19,479
Speaker 2: red Light, I do SNA. I went to Mexico, got

377
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:21,480
Speaker 2: stem cells. And I know you were on the set

378
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:23,440
Speaker 2: of Saul. I think when you had something happened to you,

379
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,480
Speaker 2: and how have you treated that with your life and health.

380
00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:32,400
Speaker 3: Well, it's weird because my family doesn't have heart disease

381
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 3: in it and and so it's weird that this happened.

382
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,520
Speaker 3: I mean it, but it did. And I had the

383
00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:41,200
Speaker 3: build up and yeah, the plaque, Yeah, the plaque build

384
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:43,960
Speaker 3: up and it broke off, and it blocked the one

385
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,919
Speaker 3: of the tributaries to the widow Maker, and uh and

386
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 3: I went down and turned gray, and every every bad

387
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:54,040
Speaker 3: thing happened, and uh, I got very lucky. Three times

388
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:57,960
Speaker 3: they related me. Three times didn't work the first two times,

389
00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:00,760
Speaker 3: which is really freaky. And I of course was not

390
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,359
Speaker 3: aware of any of this. But everyone there told me

391
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:06,720
Speaker 3: their stories later, the whole crew and cast who were

392
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:12,240
Speaker 3: standing around watching me, and they said, because that machine talks,

393
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,440
Speaker 3: you know, when you put it on the person, it says,

394
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,359
Speaker 3: you know, no pulse detected. Stand back from the body.

395
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,240
Speaker 3: Then it counts down ten, nine to eight because you

396
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 3: can't be near it, and it goes and and your

397
00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 3: body jumps off the ground and lands, and then the

398
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 3: thing talks again and says no pulse detected and or

399
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:38,360
Speaker 3: no rhythm or whatever. So it was weird to do it,

400
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 3: and to have to do it three times was really

401
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:48,359
Speaker 3: really was the most emotionally traumatic thing for the people

402
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:52,560
Speaker 3: standing around. For me, I don't remember any of it.

403
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,320
Speaker 3: I was working one day and then I woke, and

404
00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:57,159
Speaker 3: then I was leaving the hospital and it was a

405
00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 3: week later. A week later, remember sitting with the doctor

406
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,080
Speaker 3: and I'm walking out, And that's the first memory I have.

407
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 2: So how have you what have you changed since then?

408
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:09,399
Speaker 2: Like and did they put a stent in?

409
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:09,520
Speaker 5: Like?

410
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:13,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, they put two stents in. And I mean I

411
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:23,639
Speaker 3: take Stanton and I take mataprol and I don't have

412
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:30,679
Speaker 3: I just take these drugs and I go in for

413
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:36,439
Speaker 3: once a year or every other year, I go in

414
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:40,639
Speaker 3: and get a full heartwork. Well, thanks, I mean, is

415
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:44,960
Speaker 3: I it's weird that it happened, right, Like, I don't

416
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:48,840
Speaker 3: have a problem that we can tell it just it

417
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:54,520
Speaker 3: did build up in this one tributary, and and I

418
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,959
Speaker 3: knew that. I knew that I had been told this

419
00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:00,360
Speaker 3: was happening. But I was also told by a hard

420
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 3: doctor it's not that bad. Don't worry about it yet. Geez.

421
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 3: But what I didn't do. The mistake I made was

422
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 3: so I had I had this test done. You have

423
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:13,480
Speaker 3: an issue, but it's not that bad. And then I said,

424
00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:16,400
Speaker 3: oh great, and I left. But I didn't say when

425
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:17,800
Speaker 3: should I check on it again?

426
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:21,439
Speaker 2: Do you remember the pain you felt? What it was

427
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:24,199
Speaker 2: like for me? Now I feel anything, I'm like, oh

428
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 2: my god, no ya, no I got no I had

429
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:27,920
Speaker 2: no pain.

430
00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:30,679
Speaker 3: But look, the bottom line is, if your doctor says

431
00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:34,960
Speaker 3: you should watch for this thing. It's not good, but

432
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 3: it's not you don't need anything yet, you should ask

433
00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:42,080
Speaker 3: when should I come back in, because then then three

434
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,680
Speaker 3: years go by and then I have this thing happen.

435
00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:47,240
Speaker 2: So the stress of the show added to it.

436
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:48,680
Speaker 3: I don't know.

437
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:50,320
Speaker 2: Do you know the scene that you were filming have

438
00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,160
Speaker 2: you seen different before?

439
00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:57,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's the scene where Lala is talking

440
00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 3: to Kim and Jimmy and threatening them, and it's a

441
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 3: really gripping scene. It's a great scene. And most of

442
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,919
Speaker 3: it was shot before I had a heart attack, and

443
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,639
Speaker 3: then some of it was shot five weeks later.

444
00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:15,719
Speaker 2: Do you look different?

445
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:18,960
Speaker 3: I probably lost a little weight in a couple shots.

446
00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:22,480
Speaker 2: Wow, do they have you falling down on film?

447
00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 3: Oh? No, no, no no, because we were off to

448
00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 3: our own. But I have no memory. I can't remember anything.

449
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 3: My daughter made a like a post or erase board

450
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:38,400
Speaker 3: of the week that told me what happened. So I'd

451
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 3: wake up and I'd see this thing that said Tuesday

452
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:47,000
Speaker 3: heart attack. Come to the hospital Wednesdays. You know, two

453
00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 3: stints put in in it, because I just every day

454
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:54,280
Speaker 3: they would come, even through the whole day. I'd be like,

455
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,000
Speaker 3: why are you guys at the hospital. I'm sitting there

456
00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,280
Speaker 3: in the bed and like why are you here? My

457
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:01,840
Speaker 3: wife is talking to me and saying why are you here?

458
00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 3: And I'm like I came here to see you, you know.

459
00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 1: I yeah, yeah.

460
00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:12,080
Speaker 3: And that was days later. I mean, I can tell

461
00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:15,200
Speaker 3: you what. It was kind of an awesome thing because

462
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:19,560
Speaker 3: then over the course of the next three weeks, every

463
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,399
Speaker 3: day I would wake up sort of that way, but

464
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 3: very quickly I would like, oh I live here, Oh

465
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:30,040
Speaker 3: this is my wife. Oh yeah, I'm an actor, and

466
00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:33,680
Speaker 3: and it would come to I remember this happening. And

467
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:41,919
Speaker 3: I was so happy for those three weeks because I

468
00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:45,080
Speaker 3: didn't wake up which the way I do, which is

00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:46,960
Speaker 3: I used to eat ice cream every day? Really, yeah,

488
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:50,720
Speaker 3: oftentimes more than once every day. And uh, and I

489
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:54,200
Speaker 3: used to drink. Oh, I don't want to wreck people's products.

490
00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:57,280
Speaker 3: There's a lot of sugar in everything you eat. Guys,

491
00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:02,240
Speaker 3: if you cut it out, you're gonna say, oh, it's

492
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:08,160
Speaker 3: gonna suck. It's not so bad, but you you should.

493
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:10,879
Speaker 3: You should eat a lot less sugar. And if you

494
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:13,640
Speaker 3: can do it, because you you won't have to work

495
00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 3: out as much.

496
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:18,119
Speaker 2: Our friend Nick here is a Bob Odenkirk psycho fan. Oh,

497
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:20,640
Speaker 2: he's our articular producer the show. And I know he's

498
00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 2: brought up so many things.

499
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:24,600
Speaker 3: What do you know, Nick, Well, you were going through

500
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:26,760
Speaker 3: Miller commercial that I did.

501
00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:31,040
Speaker 2: No career retrospective. I live in an alternative universe sometimes

502
00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:37,640
Speaker 2: where Bob Odenkirk is Michael Scott. Yeah. Oh okay, okay, yeah,

503
00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:41,960
Speaker 2: and uh, I'm fascinated by how that went down. And

504
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 2: then you actually came back in season nine.

505
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 3: So the guy who adapted the Office the British Office

506
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:53,840
Speaker 3: for American TV is Greg Daniels, and Greg was Conan

507
00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:57,680
Speaker 3: O'Brien's writing partner out of Harvard, and then they came

508
00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:00,680
Speaker 3: to SNL four shows after I did as a writer.

509
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:05,080
Speaker 3: So we all were like a group, me, Robert Smigel,

510
00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:08,840
Speaker 3: Conan O'Brien, and Greg Daniels for a year and we

511
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,680
Speaker 3: just wrote a lot together and became good friends. Greg

512
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:16,959
Speaker 3: left went to La Conan stayed. We stuck together as

513
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,400
Speaker 3: a group then, but we knew each other. And then

514
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:24,600
Speaker 3: I had done Larry Sanders and various things that recommended

515
00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:29,399
Speaker 3: me for maybe playing that role of Michael Scott, and

516
00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:32,240
Speaker 3: so I got an audition and I was happy to

517
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,640
Speaker 3: do it because I knew the British office, because you know,

518
00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:37,720
Speaker 3: I knew like all the British comedy and I still

519
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,480
Speaker 3: do because it's always they're always kind of a little

520
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:43,720
Speaker 3: more cutting edge than they can be. They're not always,

521
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 3: but they can be because of just the way they

522
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:51,200
Speaker 3: think about TV and shows. They do shorter runs, they

523
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:54,520
Speaker 3: do more weird stuff, they try stuff a little bit

524
00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:57,440
Speaker 3: more than we do, and they follow through on that. Anyway,

525
00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:01,119
Speaker 3: I got an audition, I felt like I could do

526
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:04,639
Speaker 3: this part really really well, and I couldn't wait to

527
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:06,720
Speaker 3: do it. I had a great time doing it. I

528
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:09,679
Speaker 3: knew Steve Carrell, I didn't know him well. Steve and

529
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:13,200
Speaker 3: I have had like parallel careers where we've never except

530
00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:15,160
Speaker 3: for the Dana Carvey Show where I was a writer

531
00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:15,640
Speaker 3: and he.

532
00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 2: Was that show.

533
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:21,159
Speaker 4: That show, dude, the schedule. They would go pay for

534
00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 4: things and leave. Yeah, freaking that move. That show was hilarious.

535
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:27,560
Speaker 3: Yeah. I didn't help a lot there, but I was

536
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:32,400
Speaker 3: a writer, yeah, and I and I and I knew

537
00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:35,000
Speaker 3: him from a little I I didn't it cross paths

538
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,560
Speaker 3: at Second City with Steve, but i'd seen him there,

539
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:41,919
Speaker 3: you know, you see each other around, and uh, he

540
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:45,639
Speaker 3: seemed perfect to me to play that role, and I

541
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:52,040
Speaker 3: seem perfect to that. And you know, I've just I

542
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:57,080
Speaker 3: probably should want things more, but I don't really care.

543
00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:59,639
Speaker 3: I mean, if he gets it good and then I

544
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:02,520
Speaker 3: just get to go do my stuff. I think he

545
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 3: probably looks at it the same way. I don't know.

546
00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:08,320
Speaker 3: I'm not really an actor actor, like I.

547
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:12,560
Speaker 2: Mean, is that out? Yeah?

548
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:17,639
Speaker 3: So I I started. I come at this whole industry

549
00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:21,560
Speaker 3: as a writer, as an inventor of stuff. So whenever

550
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:24,359
Speaker 3: I didn't get a role because I did audition for

551
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:29,560
Speaker 3: other things to what was that show the family had

552
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:32,080
Speaker 3: come that ran on Fox for so many these modern family.

553
00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:36,879
Speaker 3: I read for that and there were a bunch of roles.

554
00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 3: It worked out, yeah, because I don't I as soon

555
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 3: as I don't get the role, I just go okay,

556
00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 3: cool and I take out a piece of paper and

557
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 3: start writing something.

562
00:28:56,240 --> 00:29:00,800

563
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:02,520
Speaker 3: at getting that TV show.

564
00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:04,680

Speaker 3: me your character is the local priest, he's a or

624
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 3: he's a reverend. So so then I did my my

625
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:19,080
Speaker 3: joke that I cooked up because he lets you invent

626
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:22,080
Speaker 3: your character, you know, was that I was gonna be

627
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:25,760
Speaker 3: a guy who's like, you know, I have a I

628
00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:30,120
Speaker 3: have a mass. I'm kind of on stage. It's kind

629
00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:35,640
Speaker 3: of unfair for me to audition because I basically act

630
00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:39,760
Speaker 3: and perform five times a week. We've done some really

631
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,640
Speaker 3: elaborate you know, we do a rock and roll mass

632
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:46,800
Speaker 3: flash pots in here. So he's going so I'm just

633
00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:50,360
Speaker 3: gonna go easy. I'm not gonna try very hard. I'm

634
00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:52,640
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna you know, it's not fair to the

635
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:55,160
Speaker 3: other people. And then I show up in full opera makeup,

636
00:32:55,480 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 3: like from Amadeus, and then I belt out this opera song.

637
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:03,400
Speaker 3: As it turns out, it wasn't as funny as it

638
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:08,160
Speaker 3: needed to be. But actually it just funny, and it's

639
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:11,160
Speaker 3: that movie is perfect. Is why I brought it up.

640
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:14,360
Speaker 3: Because that movie is perfect. You you know a lot

641
00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:16,360
Speaker 3: of movies you're like, oh, wait for a good moment.

642
00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:19,120
Speaker 3: But that movie is just one good moment after.

643
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:20,720
Speaker 2: That's why I feel about Normal. I thought Normal was

644
00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:23,200
Speaker 2: it flawed movie? For real? I you know, good? It

645
00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:27,360
Speaker 2: was a perfect It's ninety minutes long. Yeah, it's freaking funny,

646
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:29,800
Speaker 2: it's packed with action. It's it's it's like, you don't

647
00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:32,520
Speaker 2: have to sit there and go whether or not it's

648
00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:36,000
Speaker 2: politically correct or whether it's it's woke. It's just a

649
00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:36,600
Speaker 2: fun movie.

650
00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:39,400
Speaker 1: It gives you enough to care about the characters that it's.

651
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:42,240
Speaker 3: Like an old style movie. I don't know why is that?

652
00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:44,120
Speaker 3: But why is it like an old movie?

653
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:44,360
Speaker 2: Why?

654
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:49,320
Speaker 3: Because it it promises you ninety minutes of movie fun

655
00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:51,440
Speaker 3: and it gives you that yeah.

656
00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:52,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, And that's.

657
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 3: Such a generic way of putting it. I there's gotta

658
00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:58,560
Speaker 3: be more to it than that. But somehow you sit

659
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:02,200
Speaker 3: down and watch this movie and right away it tells

660
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:05,520
Speaker 3: you we made a movie, and you go, oh, I'm

661
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:09,080
Speaker 3: watching a movie. This is going to be satisfying like

662
00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:11,400
Speaker 3: a movie is, And then it is it is? And

663
00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:13,320
Speaker 3: why is that unique?

664
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:15,560
Speaker 2: You know what reminded me of? Also? Your movie? It

665
00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:16,440
Speaker 2: is one of those movies.
