WEBVTT - Mini Crush #164 0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:02.960 Welcome to Movie Crush, a production of I Heart Radio. 0:00:29.920 --> 0:00:33.800 Hey everybody, and welcome to Mini Crush Monday with Charles W. 0:00:33.960 --> 0:00:37.920 Chuck Bryant speaking. And I have uh Noel Briant on 0:00:37.960 --> 0:00:41.360 the line. Noel, Old Brian, Noel Briant. I love this. 0:00:41.680 --> 0:00:44.480 I just say, Old Brian, you kind of did God 0:00:44.520 --> 0:00:47.239 damn it. No, It's okay. And I'll tell you that. Yeah, 0:00:47.440 --> 0:00:51.200 I say this often. Sometimes you're opening has a certain 0:00:51.280 --> 0:00:55.440 cadence to it. Today it had the cadence of an auctioneer, like, Hey, everybody, 0:00:55.880 --> 0:01:01.600 money Monday, I talk about it all alone. So have 0:01:01.640 --> 0:01:04.080 you ever made to an auction like that? I have 0:01:04.480 --> 0:01:11.080 been to an auction of horse sperm? Oh all right, 0:01:11.240 --> 0:01:16.440 let's talk. It was Augusta, Georgia, my my hometown. I 0:01:16.520 --> 0:01:19.040 used to work for the public radio and I would 0:01:19.200 --> 0:01:22.000 I would cover various things, and the we have this 0:01:22.160 --> 0:01:25.679 a very popular event called the Augusta Futurity, which is 0:01:25.720 --> 0:01:28.800 a horse event or they you know, jump over ship. 0:01:28.880 --> 0:01:31.240 And then there's all these like adjacent events, and one 0:01:31.240 --> 0:01:35.560 of them was a horse auction for not actual horses, 0:01:35.600 --> 0:01:39.520 but breeding rights to horses. And what you're actually buying 0:01:39.840 --> 0:01:46.600 is semen mm hmm interesting. All right, Okay, that's exactly 0:01:46.600 --> 0:01:48.440 what I thought it would be. Yeah, that's what it is. 0:01:48.600 --> 0:01:50.760 It wasn't just for funzies. It was definitely like and 0:01:51.080 --> 0:01:53.240 the ship was you know, expensive, because it was like, 0:01:53.280 --> 0:01:57.040 you know, the semen of a prized ball or sure. 0:01:57.600 --> 0:02:01.640 Well that's amazing, Noel Brian, I love it. Thanks Chuck Brown. 0:02:02.160 --> 0:02:05.280 And since you brought up horses, I might as well 0:02:05.280 --> 0:02:09.440 plug my friends a new project called heart Horse. My 0:02:09.560 --> 0:02:14.200 dear friend Meredith from College and Beyond is uh or 0:02:14.280 --> 0:02:17.240 college forward is what I mean by that. Yeah, she 0:02:17.520 --> 0:02:20.360 is uh an equestrian and loves horses since she was 0:02:20.360 --> 0:02:22.240 a little girl, and they have helped during her life. 0:02:22.240 --> 0:02:24.800 So she launched this website called heart Horse where they 0:02:24.840 --> 0:02:27.840 tell these great stories about people in their horses. And 0:02:28.120 --> 0:02:30.360 if you're into horses, you should go to hard Horse. 0:02:30.520 --> 0:02:35.440 Check it out. It's really lovely stuff and a cool 0:02:35.720 --> 0:02:38.079 one of my great great friends. All Right, so nol, 0:02:38.120 --> 0:02:40.680 we're gonna get it going. We're gonna jump right on in. Today. 0:02:41.160 --> 0:02:45.160 We have a couple of segments. I asked the crushers yesterday, 0:02:45.200 --> 0:02:49.320 what is your favorite New York movie or TV show? Uh? 0:02:49.360 --> 0:02:51.200 And that it really just nails what New York is 0:02:51.240 --> 0:02:53.880 all about. And like uh and as also said, if 0:02:53.919 --> 0:02:56.000 you haven't been to New York, maybe let us know 0:02:56.040 --> 0:02:57.959 if your pick is the New York you might imagine 0:02:58.639 --> 0:03:01.520 is what New York is does? That makes sense, it does. 0:03:01.880 --> 0:03:05.680 It's interesting too, because it's like New York is easier 0:03:05.760 --> 0:03:07.720 to kind of sum up in a movie. I think, 0:03:07.760 --> 0:03:10.280 then say l A, because l A is just so 0:03:10.440 --> 0:03:13.919 sprawling and all over the place. I feel like there's 0:03:13.960 --> 0:03:16.480 not one l A and there's not one New York either, 0:03:16.520 --> 0:03:19.800 But New York is a little more encapsulatable. That's a word. 0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:23.560 I just I think I agree with you l A movies, 0:03:23.600 --> 0:03:25.920 like you can have your get short Ease in your 0:03:26.040 --> 0:03:28.000 l A stories and your movies that kind of skewer 0:03:28.120 --> 0:03:30.680 Hollywood and that whole l A thing. But then you 0:03:30.680 --> 0:03:33.720 can do Paul Thomas Anderson in the Valley a completely 0:03:33.720 --> 0:03:38.160 different l A it is, or you know, movies. You know, 0:03:38.200 --> 0:03:39.800 it kind of depends on like you said, it's so 0:03:39.840 --> 0:03:42.120 spread out on where you are in l A because 0:03:42.120 --> 0:03:44.840 it can be very different. But New York, New York's 0:03:44.880 --> 0:03:50.400 New York. You know, it's true, It's true. Um gosh, 0:03:50.480 --> 0:03:52.680 that's a good question. I'm trying to think, Um, do 0:03:52.720 --> 0:03:54.560 you have one that pops to mind, Chuck, Well, I 0:03:54.600 --> 0:03:58.800 know one that we both agree on, Um is high maintenance. 0:03:59.720 --> 0:04:03.120 Yeah yeah, yeah, Well that's that's such a good Uh 0:04:03.160 --> 0:04:05.200 what's the word. I'm looking for a good kind of 0:04:05.240 --> 0:04:09.000 like frame for just like exploring different aspects of the 0:04:09.040 --> 0:04:11.200 city and different types of people that live there. And 0:04:13.400 --> 0:04:16.000 that's that's a good one for sure. I love it. 0:04:16.880 --> 0:04:22.080 But we're gonna start with Catherine Brunet says, I'm not 0:04:22.080 --> 0:04:24.159 sure I'd try to describe a city half the size 0:04:25.160 --> 0:04:29.200 with one movie, but Panic and Needle Parker Taxi Driver 0:04:29.320 --> 0:04:32.720 seems accurate for the time period based on what I've 0:04:32.760 --> 0:04:35.680 heard from people who grew up there. Yeah, I could 0:04:35.720 --> 0:04:37.720 definitely see that. And one one that comes to mind 0:04:37.760 --> 0:04:44.120 for me is, um, the movie Bad Lieutenant with Harvey Kitel. Um, 0:04:44.120 --> 0:04:46.280 it's it's, it's, it's it's very bleak. But but I'll 0:04:46.320 --> 0:04:49.080 tell you it's interesting because it's a movie that came 0:04:49.080 --> 0:04:51.960 out in the nineties, but in the nineties, New York 0:04:52.080 --> 0:04:54.760 still looked like the New York of like the seventies. 0:04:55.080 --> 0:04:57.920 It was very graffitied up and like kind of like 0:04:58.040 --> 0:05:01.360 raunchy and edgy and now been a lot more sanitized 0:05:01.400 --> 0:05:03.520 and kind of cleaned up. And um so when you 0:05:03.560 --> 0:05:06.320 see Bad Lieutenant, even though you're watching a movie that 0:05:06.400 --> 0:05:09.000 looks like, you know, that feels very seventies, it was 0:05:09.040 --> 0:05:11.560 absolutely shot in the nineties. Um, which I think is 0:05:11.600 --> 0:05:13.800 interesting because I I think I've mentioned I grew up 0:05:14.080 --> 0:05:16.120 going to New York a lot and having a lot 0:05:16.160 --> 0:05:19.279 of free reign and like explore it as a very 0:05:19.360 --> 0:05:21.479 young kid. Looking back on it now, I'm like, God, 0:05:21.600 --> 0:05:25.359 that's that crazy. But um, yeah, so I very special 0:05:25.360 --> 0:05:28.120 place in my heart in my life that city. Yeah, 0:05:28.160 --> 0:05:30.600 I love it. Miss I remember that. I remember that era, 0:05:31.040 --> 0:05:33.400 um when it was much more sketchy. But yeah, god, 0:05:33.440 --> 0:05:35.480 I miss it too so much. Yeah, my first sit 0:05:35.560 --> 0:05:41.080 to New York was in uh nineteen ninety one, I think, 0:05:42.040 --> 0:05:44.640 and uh in college. I think like sophomore year in 0:05:44.680 --> 0:05:48.240 college or maybe junior year. And uh, it was it 0:05:48.320 --> 0:05:49.719 was everything I thought it would be. And that was 0:05:49.720 --> 0:05:52.799 still when it was sort of you know, the meatpacking 0:05:52.800 --> 0:05:55.240 district and the that side of town was really kind 0:05:55.240 --> 0:05:59.680 of run down and gross, and the Times Square still 0:05:59.720 --> 0:06:03.120 had shows and it was not cleaned up yet, and 0:06:03.680 --> 0:06:07.039 you know, it's one. It's interesting when people sort of 0:06:07.160 --> 0:06:08.560 yearned for the days when the place was kind of 0:06:08.560 --> 0:06:11.360 a ship hole. I think there's a middle period, like 0:06:11.520 --> 0:06:14.000 the eighties in New York we're truly dangerous and and 0:06:14.200 --> 0:06:16.599 kind of gross and awful, and then I think the 0:06:16.720 --> 0:06:21.120 nineties it was better but still had some of the 0:06:21.160 --> 0:06:24.480 grit before it was completely cleaned up. I get what 0:06:24.520 --> 0:06:28.280 people mean by losing its character, but also it's like, no, 0:06:28.480 --> 0:06:30.800 it's great when it was had more rats and crime. 0:06:31.320 --> 0:06:34.800 That's also kind of silly. You know, love rats and crime, 0:06:35.520 --> 0:06:38.760 but not not You're like charming ratitui rats. These are legs, 0:06:38.760 --> 0:06:44.440 seriously gnarly uh rabies and infected rats. That's right. Michael 0:06:44.520 --> 0:06:47.800 Johnson's Goodfellas the most mostly suburban and outer borough New 0:06:47.880 --> 0:06:50.200 York City. As a native, I can honestly say no, 0:06:50.320 --> 0:06:54.880 their movie is quite has gotten it quite as right? Yeah, 0:06:55.360 --> 0:06:58.080 where where was good Felas? Was that long island? Staten Island? 0:06:59.400 --> 0:07:01.599 It's a good quite shin. You know, I feel like 0:07:01.640 --> 0:07:03.599 it had to a band, No, does it not? Jersey? 0:07:04.800 --> 0:07:06.920 I really don't know. It's not something that they make 0:07:06.960 --> 0:07:10.080 a big to do about times. I should know this. 0:07:10.760 --> 0:07:13.240 What's the zoo that they go to with the alligator. 0:07:13.360 --> 0:07:17.120 Is that like the Brooklyn Zoo Brooklyn or the Bronx Zoo. 0:07:17.200 --> 0:07:20.119 I forgot about that scene. They just there's like a lion. 0:07:20.760 --> 0:07:22.880 They throw a guy in the lion. They feed a 0:07:22.920 --> 0:07:27.440 body too, Zoo alligators something like that anyway, But I'm 0:07:27.440 --> 0:07:29.200 blanking on all of it now. I feel like it's 0:07:29.240 --> 0:07:34.960 the Bronx Zoo. Yes, I bet you're right. Teresa Barker says, 0:07:35.000 --> 0:07:36.840 not a movie, but Pretend It's a City with brand 0:07:36.880 --> 0:07:40.000 Lee Bowitz quintessential New York City and makes me ache 0:07:40.000 --> 0:07:44.040 to be there. Yes, Teresa, I have been. We have 0:07:44.120 --> 0:07:47.120 watched a couple of episodes of Pretend It's a City, 0:07:47.280 --> 0:07:49.280 and I like it quite a bit. Brand Lee Bowitz 0:07:49.280 --> 0:07:53.440 is great national treasure. She's the I'd love to see 0:07:53.440 --> 0:07:55.120 her and Larry, her and Larry David sit down and 0:07:55.160 --> 0:07:57.760 have a conversation. Oh god, you're right, she is very 0:07:57.840 --> 0:08:02.160 Larry David, Uh, Chuck. Have you seen painting with John? No? 0:08:02.240 --> 0:08:04.800 I still have not seen that. I would recommend that. 0:08:04.880 --> 0:08:09.040 I think you'd you'd enjoy. It's this guy John, John Louie, 0:08:09.280 --> 0:08:12.880 who was in a lot of the Jim Jarmish films, 0:08:12.880 --> 0:08:15.360 and he's just kind of this like weird out there 0:08:15.400 --> 0:08:17.920 cool kind of like almost like a proto beat nick 0:08:17.920 --> 0:08:21.640 type dude. And he's just hanging out in his crazy 0:08:21.720 --> 0:08:25.520 pad in the Caribbean somewhere, painting and talking about life. 0:08:25.560 --> 0:08:28.440 And uh, it's very like, you know, meta and self 0:08:28.440 --> 0:08:31.680 referential and um, probably should never have come to exist, 0:08:31.720 --> 0:08:33.680 but he happened to make it just for his own 0:08:34.160 --> 0:08:36.960 edification and showed it to uh somebody, I think it 0:08:37.000 --> 0:08:40.640 was Will Ferrell's producing partner, who's the director whose name 0:08:40.640 --> 0:08:43.680 is escaping me right now? Um, and he like loved 0:08:43.679 --> 0:08:46.319 it and showed it Adam McKay and then HBO is like, 0:08:46.360 --> 0:08:48.200 here are you got yourself a show? Um? And it 0:08:48.200 --> 0:08:49.800 feels very much like that, like it just was kind 0:08:49.840 --> 0:08:53.000 of willed into existence by this guy's own just like creativity. 0:08:53.760 --> 0:08:55.520 Well if you do like that, Nolan, I don't know 0:08:55.559 --> 0:08:58.400 why I haven't, uh when you mentioned that before, not 0:08:58.679 --> 0:09:01.600 mentioned this in return. Uh. That is a take on 0:09:01.840 --> 0:09:04.800 the series he had called Fishing with John. I've heard 0:09:04.840 --> 0:09:06.839 of it, I've not seen it, which is fantastic, where 0:09:06.920 --> 0:09:10.080 John Laurie would literally just take one person fishing. Uh. 0:09:10.160 --> 0:09:14.160 Tom Waits, Dennis Hopper, Willem Dafoe. I think Matt Dillon 0:09:14.240 --> 0:09:18.480 was on one of them, very very very fun show. 0:09:19.320 --> 0:09:22.320 Jim Jarmers was in one. Got It good stuff, Get 0:09:22.400 --> 0:09:24.800 two dudes in a boat, and that's sort of the premise, 0:09:25.080 --> 0:09:28.800 a small boat. All right, let's move on here to 0:09:28.840 --> 0:09:32.760 New York again. Dan truebat true body. I always say 0:09:32.760 --> 0:09:36.559 your name wrong, Dan, Sorry, I've never been to New York. Uh, 0:09:36.600 --> 0:09:38.560 And I know it was filmed in l A. But 0:09:38.640 --> 0:09:41.320 I personally to refuse to believe that the New York 0:09:41.320 --> 0:09:45.400 and Seinfeld isn't und accurate even now. That's funny. It's 0:09:45.400 --> 0:09:47.240 one of those things too, where it's like, how does 0:09:47.400 --> 0:09:51.360 how does the stand up comedian afford this apartment? Or like, 0:09:51.440 --> 0:09:55.120 you know, like all of them, all of the friends, yeah, 0:09:55.240 --> 0:09:57.360 friends the same. I think that was one of their. 0:09:57.400 --> 0:09:59.520 I think it was Monica's grandmother's apartment, though at least 0:09:59.559 --> 0:10:02.880 they tried to explain it because this in a way, 0:10:02.960 --> 0:10:06.560 you know, in the West Village. Uh, in a stress 0:10:06.760 --> 0:10:09.040 one of our old princes. Uh. I love the weird, 0:10:09.080 --> 0:10:13.000 quirky version that Broad City shows. Yeah, totally, totally, totally. 0:10:13.720 --> 0:10:15.520 Jennifer Mudge has never been But when I think of 0:10:15.520 --> 0:10:17.880 New York. It's got a sex in the city vibe, 0:10:17.920 --> 0:10:21.199 and I know the apartments are way smaller. Yeah, they 0:10:21.240 --> 0:10:24.760 definitely are kids A good one. Kids is a very raw, 0:10:25.240 --> 0:10:28.600 like real Those are all actual, you know kids that 0:10:28.679 --> 0:10:32.240 like ran in those circles and all kind of guerilla 0:10:32.320 --> 0:10:36.080 style shot and very much an accurate depiction of New 0:10:36.160 --> 0:10:38.600 York during those those those times that could have been 0:10:38.600 --> 0:10:41.160 you know, old scampering around as a teenager, gamping around, 0:10:42.240 --> 0:10:46.199 breaking into swimming pools, trying to make out. Oh yeah, 0:10:46.480 --> 0:10:51.200 making out, making out. Angelo Buckle says, movie wise, maybe 0:10:51.200 --> 0:10:52.880 some of Spike Lee's old stuff, like she's gotta have 0:10:52.920 --> 0:10:55.080 it or do the right thing. Yeah, I do the 0:10:55.120 --> 0:10:57.920 right thing. I think was a pretty good depiction of 0:10:57.920 --> 0:11:06.040 Brooklyn of the day. Gail the Dangerubin says, Ghostbusters never 0:11:06.080 --> 0:11:07.800 been to New York. But since I grew up watching 0:11:07.800 --> 0:11:09.480 that movie, if New York isn't like that, I'm going 0:11:09.520 --> 0:11:12.199 to be real piste off. Yeah, that was a pretty 0:11:12.200 --> 0:11:14.320 realistic New York. I think for what it was, New 0:11:14.360 --> 0:11:20.160 York absolutely overflowing with ghosts, no question about it. Brittany Story, 0:11:20.200 --> 0:11:22.760 one of our old friends, says, Brittany runs a marathon 0:11:22.840 --> 0:11:25.440 has been pretty similar to my own experience of a 0:11:25.520 --> 0:11:29.720 Youngish person finding their way in New York named Brittany. Yes, 0:11:29.800 --> 0:11:32.440 the city can be harsh and a bit brutal, especially 0:11:32.480 --> 0:11:34.079 when you feel lost, but it also feels full of 0:11:34.120 --> 0:11:39.079 possibility and wonder. Sure, yes, totally, Chuck. I don't know 0:11:39.080 --> 0:11:40.880 how you feel about that. Did you you lived in 0:11:40.880 --> 0:11:43.079 New York? No? No, maybe not? You'd lived in l 0:11:43.120 --> 0:11:45.680 a that lived in Jersey for three years and spot 0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:48.000 all my time in New York for sure. And I 0:11:48.040 --> 0:11:49.520 grew up, like I said, going to New York all 0:11:49.559 --> 0:11:52.319 the time, and I had, you know, this like aspirational 0:11:52.400 --> 0:11:53.800 thing where I was like, I want to live in 0:11:53.800 --> 0:11:57.720 New York and that didn't happen, but you know, for work. Thankfully, 0:11:57.720 --> 0:11:59.880 I've been able to travel there a lot before you know, 0:12:00.040 --> 0:12:03.840 covid um, and I've realized and completely made peace with 0:12:03.880 --> 0:12:05.400 the fact that I do not want to live in 0:12:05.400 --> 0:12:07.760 New York anymore. I just want to go there for 0:12:07.800 --> 0:12:09.720 a while and then come back home to my my 0:12:09.800 --> 0:12:12.000 home in Atlanta, which is much more my speed. Because 0:12:12.040 --> 0:12:14.920 it's a it is brutal, and it is like a 0:12:15.000 --> 0:12:18.199 grind like it. It really feels like you're just scrapping 0:12:18.280 --> 0:12:20.720 just to like get from the store back to your apartment, 0:12:20.880 --> 0:12:24.680 or like it's a tough city. And I think, uh, 0:12:24.720 --> 0:12:27.760 I think there's a certain age you reach where you 0:12:27.880 --> 0:12:29.760 give up on that dream of living in New York 0:12:29.760 --> 0:12:31.560 for kind of the reasons you mentioned where you're like, 0:12:31.559 --> 0:12:34.240 you know, I'm good to visit, and hey, we get 0:12:34.280 --> 0:12:37.559 to visit, you know during normal times, you know, or 0:12:37.559 --> 0:12:40.160 five six times a year for work, which is the 0:12:40.240 --> 0:12:44.840 best someone mels pace for it totally. I mean there 0:12:44.880 --> 0:12:47.840 was a time, you know, k I was going like 0:12:47.920 --> 0:12:51.079 twice a month, you know, like before COVID, like just 0:12:51.120 --> 0:12:53.240 because of taking meetings and stuff. And I think it'll 0:12:53.240 --> 0:12:56.760 probably not return to that cadence, but I do hope 0:12:56.760 --> 0:12:58.240 it does come back because I have a I basically 0:12:58.280 --> 0:13:00.320 have a whole New York family of like a friend 0:13:00.360 --> 0:13:02.800 group now and it's I missed them. I love it. 0:13:03.400 --> 0:13:05.719 I miss them to my my niece Reagan is there 0:13:05.720 --> 0:13:08.760 and I miss seeing her for sure. Uh let me 0:13:08.800 --> 0:13:11.959 see here. Aaron Cooper said Ghostbusters as well, we got 0:13:12.000 --> 0:13:15.640 Matthew fober chimed in with high maintenance faith and reminiscent 0:13:15.640 --> 0:13:18.439 of the times I spent visiting friends from the Midwest 0:13:18.440 --> 0:13:23.280 who had relocated there. Erica Z says Lena Dunham series 0:13:23.400 --> 0:13:26.480 Girls to be fair whenever I went to visit friends 0:13:26.559 --> 0:13:29.480 all at in Brooklyn, so they had similar living situations. Yeah, 0:13:29.559 --> 0:13:31.600 Girls was sort of like high maintenance. I thought it 0:13:31.640 --> 0:13:34.880 was a really accurate version of that New York I 0:13:34.920 --> 0:13:37.600 love that show. I'm always on record as saying Girls 0:13:37.640 --> 0:13:39.440 was one of the great great shows, one of the 0:13:39.440 --> 0:13:42.319 most well written shows ever. I don't know why I 0:13:42.360 --> 0:13:45.000 get back on people don't like Lena Dunham. I think 0:13:46.120 --> 0:13:47.960 she just did some stuff in the press that was 0:13:48.000 --> 0:13:50.800 a little abrasive. But I I think that either can 0:13:50.880 --> 0:13:54.160 you can totally be annoyed at her for that stuff 0:13:54.240 --> 0:13:56.199 or be like, yeah, you go and and don't be 0:13:56.240 --> 0:13:59.920 like a predictable kind of wallflower. So, um, I respect 0:14:00.040 --> 0:14:01.880 her as a as a as an artist and as 0:14:01.920 --> 0:14:03.760 a as a person, but sometimes she does rub me 0:14:03.800 --> 0:14:05.520 a little bit the wrong way. But um, I think 0:14:05.559 --> 0:14:07.679 she's very talented. Yeah, I mean I get it, and 0:14:07.720 --> 0:14:12.440 I think she Uh. I think it seems like some 0:14:12.520 --> 0:14:16.160 of this, like genuinely more controversial things that happened. We're 0:14:16.240 --> 0:14:21.200 after Girls, yes, or maybe I'm wrong. No, I think 0:14:21.240 --> 0:14:24.160 that's about right anyway. I will say the thing about 0:14:24.160 --> 0:14:26.000 girls that always bugged me, and I thought it was 0:14:26.040 --> 0:14:28.200 good and I enjoyed watching it, but it just felt 0:14:28.200 --> 0:14:32.040 like a very privileged perspective, you know, of like what 0:14:32.080 --> 0:14:33.520 it's like to live in New York. And a lot 0:14:33.560 --> 0:14:38.120 of those characters I just found particularly not very um relatable, 0:14:38.520 --> 0:14:41.680 you know, are not very uh sympathetic because they're just 0:14:41.760 --> 0:14:46.240 kind of like their problems are very you know, characters 0:14:46.280 --> 0:14:58.160 still love sometimes for sure. I get it, Jake Dingler, 0:14:58.200 --> 0:15:01.160 I don't think we know, Jake Kai Jakes says it Yes, 0:15:01.200 --> 0:15:04.040 originally a play, Yes, the play was better. And now 0:15:04.080 --> 0:15:05.800 I've never been to New York, but that movie made 0:15:05.800 --> 0:15:09.320 my fifteen year old queer self believe there was something 0:15:09.360 --> 0:15:12.920 better than the rural outskirts of Cincinnati. I love that, Jake. 0:15:13.800 --> 0:15:17.240 It's good stuff when a movie can give someone uh 0:15:18.200 --> 0:15:19.760 I feel like they have a place that they fit 0:15:19.800 --> 0:15:21.240 in when they might not fit in where they are. 0:15:21.360 --> 0:15:26.840 It's good stuff. Power of movies and plays, uh kanam 0:15:27.000 --> 0:15:34.120 true acts, says Russian Doll. Yeah, parks in Bodega's, eccentric people, 0:15:34.200 --> 0:15:37.640 artists in jerks, it's all there. Yea, yeah, for sure. 0:15:37.760 --> 0:15:39.720 I love that show. That's when I didn't finish what 0:15:39.800 --> 0:15:42.040 I very much liked what I saw. It was it just, 0:15:42.360 --> 0:15:44.360 you know, it has a certain repetition to that sort 0:15:44.400 --> 0:15:46.600 of the point. But I just died for some reason 0:15:46.680 --> 0:15:49.240 that it didn't I love it, didn't bring me in 0:15:49.280 --> 0:15:51.160 to to finish it. But I think I saw like 0:15:51.280 --> 0:15:53.120 four or five episodes. Yeah, I can't wait for the 0:15:53.400 --> 0:15:55.400 next stuff. And I finished Search Party. By the way, 0:15:55.400 --> 0:15:56.880 I don't think you've ever followed up on that. I 0:15:57.400 --> 0:16:01.720 blazed through Search Party one of my fastest binges because 0:16:01.800 --> 0:16:06.120 Emily Um bailed on it after a little bit, but 0:16:06.200 --> 0:16:07.840 she wanted to know still what was happening, so I 0:16:07.880 --> 0:16:12.160 was kind of just recapping. But I loved it, man, 0:16:12.160 --> 0:16:15.480 I thought it was a little fun. Our old friend 0:16:16.560 --> 0:16:23.600 Ethan Anastasio says, and Ghostbusters, when Lewis Tully has chased 0:16:23.640 --> 0:16:25.320 them all by the Hellhound at Tavern on the Green, 0:16:25.840 --> 0:16:27.960 all those diners look up for a moment and then 0:16:27.960 --> 0:16:30.080 go right back to their meals. Most New York moment 0:16:30.080 --> 0:16:33.880 and cinema history. That's a good point. That's Ethan Yavine. 0:16:33.920 --> 0:16:38.800 Of course, I'm just kidding about Unshakable unflappable New Yorkers. 0:16:39.680 --> 0:16:43.720 You're not gonna ruin my hundred dollar meal. Alex Press 0:16:43.800 --> 0:16:47.080 is the Warriors during during COVID nineteen times. Sometimes it's 0:16:47.120 --> 0:16:49.560 still a struggle to commute safely on the subway. I mean, 0:16:49.560 --> 0:16:51.080 New York had the crime has gone up. It's been 0:16:51.080 --> 0:16:53.240 a little crazy to see some of the stuff that's 0:16:53.240 --> 0:16:56.200 happened over the past year, like these sort of random 0:16:56.200 --> 0:16:58.880 attacks and things that you didn't see for a long 0:16:58.920 --> 0:17:03.640 time in New York. It's little scary and disheartening. Yeah, 0:17:03.760 --> 0:17:06.760 for sure. Ryan Lee says, what we do in the Shadows, 0:17:06.800 --> 0:17:14.280 they really nailed Mannahatta in Stetin Island, good stuff. Steve 0:17:14.359 --> 0:17:17.199 McGrath says, sweaty Bruce Willis and Sam Jackson and that 0:17:17.280 --> 0:17:20.320 die Hard movie they did their memories of riding the 0:17:20.440 --> 0:17:24.320 trains in the summer totally. Man, that's a very summary 0:17:24.359 --> 0:17:26.280 New York movie. And I have a really distinctive memory 0:17:26.320 --> 0:17:27.919 because that was, you know, around the time that I 0:17:27.920 --> 0:17:29.560 was there all the time, and I believe I even 0:17:29.560 --> 0:17:31.400 maybe saw that while it was in New York. There's 0:17:31.440 --> 0:17:32.920 a place I don't think it's there anymore. It's called 0:17:32.920 --> 0:17:35.480 something different, but it was called Gray's Papaya and as 0:17:35.480 --> 0:17:38.639 a hot dogs place, and they and they put like 0:17:38.680 --> 0:17:41.520 papaya on the on the hot dogs, and uh, I 0:17:41.600 --> 0:17:45.440 remember it was underneath a mattress place called Sleepy's, which 0:17:45.480 --> 0:17:47.720 maybe is still there's something somewhere off the time square, 0:17:47.760 --> 0:17:50.240 but it's it's it's very distinctly featured in the movie. 0:17:50.280 --> 0:17:52.240 And I remember thinking how cool I was because I 0:17:52.359 --> 0:17:56.760 knew that location at the time. Our old friend Jimmy 0:17:56.800 --> 0:17:59.760 Caykendall agrees with us on high maintenance. Don't think there's 0:17:59.760 --> 0:18:03.399 a show that better represents itty city or diverse population 0:18:04.560 --> 0:18:09.320 I praise indeed. Indeed, Matthew Hunter says, I just watched 0:18:09.359 --> 0:18:12.880 Dog Day Afternoon. Definitely part of the gritty seventies genre. 0:18:13.920 --> 0:18:17.840 Michael mcgree says, I like The New York from Arthur Well, 0:18:17.920 --> 0:18:20.199 Michael Arthur is one of my favorite all time comedies. 0:18:20.240 --> 0:18:22.720 I'm just dying for someone to pick that on movie 0:18:22.720 --> 0:18:26.520 Crush that's with Dudley Moore. Yeah, it was a very 0:18:26.520 --> 0:18:29.040 big movie for me as a kid. Saw it over 0:18:29.080 --> 0:18:31.920 and over and over and over on HBO. Got it. 0:18:32.520 --> 0:18:35.560 Joshua Hall says Escape from New York. Yeah, another high 0:18:35.600 --> 0:18:39.680 maintenance vote from Zach Low. Uh, and let me finish 0:18:39.800 --> 0:18:44.480 up here with this. Andrew Cottney says Master of None 0:18:45.040 --> 0:18:47.800 the ass and sorry Netflix show was pretty good. Yes, 0:18:47.880 --> 0:18:50.960 I think they might be doing more of those now. 0:18:51.480 --> 0:18:54.399 I think it was just announced after a long breaks. 0:18:54.560 --> 0:18:56.240 I think they're coming back for a new season, which 0:18:56.560 --> 0:18:59.159 makes me really happy because Master of None is one 0:18:59.160 --> 0:19:02.240 of the great great shows. All right, nol Uh, We're 0:19:02.280 --> 0:19:10.600 gonna wrap it up with a little segment called Chucks Hole. 0:19:13.280 --> 0:19:17.080 I get a chance to redeem myself from that debacle. 0:19:19.040 --> 0:19:21.040 And you you know you have to keep score too. 0:19:21.400 --> 0:19:25.359 Oh god, damn difficult part of this whole experience. I 0:19:25.400 --> 0:19:29.040 don't have my handy dandy score sheet. Um, I'll just okay, 0:19:29.040 --> 0:19:33.040 it's fine, Okay, you don't have your custom made scored 0:19:33.240 --> 0:19:35.960 keep hold on. No, no, I don't. I don't have 0:19:36.000 --> 0:19:37.960 it on me right now. But I'm gonna do. I'm 0:19:37.960 --> 0:19:40.200 gonna put I've got it. I've got my Chuck's Holes 0:19:40.280 --> 0:19:43.920 list in the notes app. So what I'm gonna do is, uh, 0:19:44.119 --> 0:19:46.639 put the little checkbox next to him, and if you 0:19:46.680 --> 0:19:48.239 get one, I'm gonna check it. If you don't, I'm 0:19:48.240 --> 0:19:50.160 not gonna check in them, gonna count ot the check marks. 0:19:50.200 --> 0:19:54.280 Does that work? Yes? Great? Making sure I understand the 0:19:54.280 --> 0:19:56.880 concept of keeping score. Sometimes I just have to keep 0:19:56.920 --> 0:20:00.560 myself honest. You alright, Chuck, this is Chuck's Holes eight 0:20:00.720 --> 0:20:07.200 eighties schlocky sci fi edition. Oh okay, that could possibly do? Okay, 0:20:07.359 --> 0:20:09.720 this one, I think you You definitely could, and I 0:20:10.000 --> 0:20:12.479 likely will. But I think it's uh, I think it's 0:20:12.520 --> 0:20:14.399 pretty fair, and I'm not gonna lie. I'm gonna be 0:20:14.400 --> 0:20:16.000 really honest with the audience because that's just how we 0:20:16.080 --> 0:20:18.439 do on movie crush. Um. I did not get the 0:20:18.440 --> 0:20:20.080 memo that you wanted me to prepare this, so right 0:20:20.080 --> 0:20:23.239 before we recorded this, I took about fifteen minutes and 0:20:23.400 --> 0:20:26.879 made this list, Um, and I stand by it. Thanks 0:20:26.880 --> 0:20:29.680 for doing that work at the last minute. All of course, dude, 0:20:29.680 --> 0:20:33.000 that's that's what I do. Um. I maybe would put 0:20:33.040 --> 0:20:34.920 them in a different order, but we don't have time 0:20:34.920 --> 0:20:38.439 for that. So let's go starting the clock. There's no 0:20:38.480 --> 0:20:44.000 clock on this. Um. How about this? This was an 0:20:44.080 --> 0:20:48.879 early Jim Carey performance in a little movie called Earth 0:20:48.960 --> 0:20:53.280 Girls Are Easy. I never saw that, Okay, I know, 0:20:53.320 --> 0:20:56.400 I know the movie, never saw it. I believe it's 0:20:56.440 --> 0:21:01.359 got Gina Davis. Yeah, Jeff Gold looms in it. Uh. 0:21:01.560 --> 0:21:06.400 Gina Davis, Um, sort of a little raunchy. I think 0:21:06.440 --> 0:21:08.560 there's some raunch and it might have been a boober too. 0:21:09.320 --> 0:21:13.879 Um and yeah, that came out in nineteen I believe 0:21:13.920 --> 0:21:18.439 the very first Jim Carey, um, you know film performance. 0:21:18.480 --> 0:21:21.800 And he's an alien and he's covered in like blue fur. Yeah. 0:21:21.840 --> 0:21:23.800 If I should have seen that, I was in junior 0:21:23.800 --> 0:21:25.440 in high school. That was right at my alley. Did 0:21:25.440 --> 0:21:28.159 not see it? Yep, Gina Davis and Jeff Cold. I 0:21:28.160 --> 0:21:31.080 forgot Jeff Cold. It's an out of this world, down 0:21:31.119 --> 0:21:35.280 to earth romantic comedy. That's that's fun. Uh. Oh, I 0:21:35.280 --> 0:21:36.960 did I see exactly what they did? All right? Moving on, 0:21:37.040 --> 0:21:40.200 no check mark for you. Uh. A little movie that 0:21:40.520 --> 0:21:43.080 was obviously riding the wave of a lot of Critter 0:21:43.200 --> 0:21:48.919 movies that were, um, you know, very much influenced by Gremlin's. 0:21:49.000 --> 0:21:52.920 A little movie called Munchy. Did not see Munchy. Maybe 0:21:52.920 --> 0:21:58.480 it's Munchy's. Let me just double check. I didn't either one, Okay, didn't. 0:21:58.480 --> 0:22:01.600 I didn't see Critters either. I was called Munches. Uh. 0:22:01.720 --> 0:22:05.320
