Speaker 1: Welcome to Movie Crush, a production of I Heart Radio.
Speaker 1: Hey everybody, welcome to Movie Crush, Mini Crush Monday with
Speaker 1: Nizzle in the house. I like that Nizzle in your house?
Speaker 1: That is is that like pig Latin? Is that? How
Speaker 1: is that? Just like uh hipopification? That's snoop Latin? Okay,
Speaker 1: got it? Got it? Have you ever met Snoop Dogg? Chuck?
Speaker 1: Have ever met Snoop Dogg? I have not met him.
Speaker 1: I I've walked right by him one time, and oh boy,
Speaker 1: do I even want to talk about this? Did he
Speaker 1: smell good? Chuck? Did he smell good? I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: tell the story, but I passed by Snoop Dogg one
Speaker 1: time in very close proximity, and he and he referenced
Speaker 1: me and my friends as being, uh, all these white
Speaker 1: guys with sideburns. Well that sound that that that sounds
Speaker 1: on brand. It was just like back in the seventies,
Speaker 1: like when was this? No, no, this is this is
Speaker 1: in the probably late nineties when the big sideburns were in.
Speaker 1: Have you met him? No? No, I have not. I
Speaker 1: have not. He just seems cool. I love him, man out.
Speaker 1: I was I remember very distinctly the first time I
Speaker 1: ever listened to The Chronic in Athens, Georgia with my
Speaker 1: friends Jason and Clay and Uh, when Snoop Dogg made
Speaker 1: his debut on that record, I had never heard of
Speaker 1: I never heard a voice like his before, and it
Speaker 1: was totally original and just fucking floored me completely. I
Speaker 1: was like, is this guy? Yeah, he had this super
Speaker 1: laid back kind of like just so cool, just the
Speaker 1: coolest delivery, you know. Yeah, and it was just different
Speaker 1: at the time, like everything was kind of hard hitting,
Speaker 1: and he was the perfect CounterPunch to Dre. I need
Speaker 1: to listen to The Chronic again. I haven't pulled that
Speaker 1: out in a little while. Is that the one that
Speaker 1: encourages you to smoke weed every day? Well, it is
Speaker 1: for knol. I'm just saying, thanks for bringing that up.
Speaker 1: So that's a nice segue. Uh. What we were gonna do,
Speaker 1: and we talked about doing since this is releasing on April,
Speaker 1: was doing a doing a weed episode. But then I
Speaker 1: started thinking about how dumb that is. Hey, Chuck, you
Speaker 1: ever podcasted on weed? On weed? Uh? So we are
Speaker 1: not doing a four twenty episode, but I thought I
Speaker 1: would at least throw a bone to the crowd and
Speaker 1: do a segment on weed movies. Fair enough? Oh yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I love it. So I asked the movie crushers, what
Speaker 1: is the best weed movie? And I said, I don't
Speaker 1: know if there are any, because I find them all
Speaker 1: kind of dumb in my honest opinion. Um, but let's
Speaker 1: see what the people have to say. What do you say?
Speaker 1: What's the movies? Yeah, what's the Dave Chappelle one? That's
Speaker 1: that's the classic. That one's actually considered pretty funny and
Speaker 1: pretty half baked, half baked? It was? It was okay,
Speaker 1: I guess, but I was cute. I only saw it once,
Speaker 1: so it's not like it couldn't have been that good.
Speaker 1: What about the Chechen Schong movies? You don't know a
Speaker 1: little nostalgic warm place in your heart for those guys.
Speaker 1: I do, but they're really not that good. They're not
Speaker 1: and they're really dumb. I hate to say it. They're
Speaker 1: kind of dumb and not that good. I couldn't say
Speaker 1: that now with hindsight, I think that's fair. Um. Oh,
Speaker 1: I don't know. You like that high maintenance show a
Speaker 1: lot that's a that's a weed thing sort of, but uh, yeah,
Speaker 1: you see it and you'll realize it's not a It's
Speaker 1: not a weed show at all, got it. It's a
Speaker 1: show about human beings. Know how many times do I
Speaker 1: have to tell you that Well so is half baked,
Speaker 1: Chuck So is half baked. Well let's see if h
Speaker 1: let's see what if? Any of these will jog my
Speaker 1: memory of good weed movies. Austin Ardebski, one of our
Speaker 1: good friends, his Pineapple Express. When that came out, me
Speaker 1: and my buddies went to a midnight screening and people
Speaker 1: were literally passing joints around and smoking. I will never
Speaker 1: forget that experience. I actually kind of liked Pineapple Express.
Speaker 1: That one was fun because it had a heist element involved,
Speaker 1: you know, or there was like some time uh and
Speaker 1: Danny McBride's always a treat. I always see anything he's in.
Speaker 1: I didn't want to see it again, but it was
Speaker 1: fun enough, you know. Check. I there are very few
Speaker 1: movies these days that I want to see again. As
Speaker 1: I've gotten older, my time is just so valuable. I
Speaker 1: don't feel like I ever need to see things more
Speaker 1: than once. Most of the time. I know you're you
Speaker 1: don't feel that way, but that's just across the board.
Speaker 1: Thing for me kind of with movies nowadays. All right,
Speaker 1: fair enough, Becca lu goes the Pineapple Express too, if
Speaker 1: for no other reason, then I'm already in the dumpster
Speaker 1: is used in my house extensively. It's what she says. Uh,
Speaker 1: and Becca lose an old pal, of course. Is that
Speaker 1: referred referring to being really stoned or something? Or I
Speaker 1: already remember the line? I think, Uh, I think it
Speaker 1: was just a line in the movie. I don't think
Speaker 1: it had other meaning. I think they were literally in
Speaker 1: the dumpster. Yeah, maybe it's literally a scenario where you're
Speaker 1: supposed to meet somebody in the dumpster and you're saying,
Speaker 1: I'm already in the dumpster. So uh. One of our
Speaker 1: oldest friends with a great name, Margarita Sarah Margo says,
Speaker 1: Harold and Kumar go to Whitecastle easily the one I've
Speaker 1: watched the most times. From what I remember, I really
Speaker 1: loved it. Yeah, that was fun movie. Let me see here,
Speaker 1: would you consider Dazed and Confused a weed? What constitutes
Speaker 1: a weed movie? Like? Well, good point, because someone says
Speaker 1: days and Confused and here, uh, where was that a
Speaker 1: sault earlier? I don't consider that a weed movie at all?
Speaker 1: Do you. I guess the very nature of a weed
Speaker 1: movie is sort of diminutive anyway, because it's applying that
Speaker 1: it's sort of a one trick pony, and then it's
Speaker 1: it's it's leaning on a stale kind of you know,
Speaker 1: joke the whole movie. And so I could see where
Speaker 1: you're coming from the idea of a weed movie inherently
Speaker 1: is like schlocky and kind of not great. Usually, Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's because weed culture is kind of dumb and shlocky
Speaker 1: and not great. But what you realize is is that
Speaker 1: like all kinds of people smoke weed, everyone and of
Speaker 1: every kind of like you know, social strata and like,
Speaker 1: you know, generation, so many people smoke weed. That to
Speaker 1: your point about high maintenance, that's probably more what that
Speaker 1: shows about is about all of the different people that
Speaker 1: are connected by this you know, kind of common thread,
Speaker 1: you know. So, yeah, that's a good point. Uh, let
Speaker 1: me see here. Jacob Cousara says, not a weed movie
Speaker 1: at all. But in the eighties and nine to five,
Speaker 1: the pivotal scene where Lily, Jane and Dolly smoke up
Speaker 1: and hatch a plan to do undo their chauvinistic boss,
Speaker 1: that is a great scene. Great movie, Dolly Parton smokes
Speaker 1: weed in the movie. Think God, it was only in
Speaker 1: the very funny I think if I'm not mistaken that
Speaker 1: U Lily Tomlins supplied it. That sounds on brand. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Definitely wasn't Jane Fond because she was the uptight one.
Speaker 1: I don't think it was Dolly. It's been a while,
Speaker 1: but it was. It was pretty funny. Yeah, I think
Speaker 1: Lily Tomlin had a joint or something like that, got it. Uh.
Speaker 1: One of our old friends, Luke harkoll Road says, gotta
Speaker 1: go with up in Smoke, Cheese and Cheech and Chong,
Speaker 1: basically just stringing together a bunch of stuff from their
Speaker 1: comedy albums. But it works. Uh. Yeah, you know you
Speaker 1: know how I feel about those Yep, they occupy a
Speaker 1: certain place in in cinematic and comedic history. I think
Speaker 1: it's sort of like a Gallagher esque situation. You know.
Speaker 1: It's like, this is the thing we do. We're cheaching song,
Speaker 1: we're the weed stoner guys, and this is our bit,
Speaker 1: you know, and let's stretch it out for as many
Speaker 1: movies as we can get paid for. Yeah, And it
Speaker 1: turns out there's not a ton of these movies because
Speaker 1: the same ones are coming up again and again. Um
Speaker 1: there's a movie from Dylan Thomas here called How High?
Speaker 1: Isn't that the one with the Redman and um method
Speaker 1: Man and in another Man just the two men just
Speaker 1: just read and method. I think that sounds about right. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I believe that's correct. And you know, I don't know
Speaker 1: if you call this strictly a weed movie at all.
Speaker 1: It's not, but I think Friday could maybe gather in
Speaker 1: that general area as a is a good comedy featuring
Speaker 1: lots of weed. Friday is a good movie, though, Like
Speaker 1: that's like a solid ass picture, you know, like that,
Speaker 1: it's good. I love at the beginning when ice Cube's
Speaker 1: mom tells him to have the milk or have water
Speaker 1: with his cereals are out of milk? Gross gross? Can
Speaker 1: you imagine water cereal if you really think about it? Though,
Speaker 1: milk is kind of gross too. I like it, but
Speaker 1: when you really give it too much thought, it starts
Speaker 1: to kind of come apart, you know, like the idea
Speaker 1: of drinking milk and it's just cow juice, you know,
Speaker 1: it's like watery liquid cow juice. I don't, I don't,
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know what about skim skim,
Speaker 1: forget about a whole milk or nothing. That's that's where
Speaker 1: I'm gonna draw the line. Well, we gotta go with
Speaker 1: two percent in our house because of Ruby's age. But
Speaker 1: those first couple of years were blissful when you had
Speaker 1: the whole milk in the house before you got to
Speaker 1: make that switch to two percent. It was the what
Speaker 1: is this? I don't know about this? What does this
Speaker 1: have to do with age? Was this like a you
Speaker 1: drink whole milk into a certain age and then they
Speaker 1: recommend you go down to two percent. Oh interesting, that's
Speaker 1: what they say. But boy, I love that whole milk
Speaker 1: with a cookie. Oh yeah, that's true. Now it's true.
Speaker 1: I love milk. I'm just saying, if you really give
Speaker 1: it too much thought, it sounds so it starts to
Speaker 1: seem gross. Rotten Tomatoes says of How High, How High
Speaker 1: is a sloppily constructed stoner movie filled with lame, vulgar jokes.
Speaker 1: Oh that's funny. Alicia diet says, this is a good comment.
Speaker 1: One of our old friends says, I can't name a
Speaker 1: specific movie, but I've always found it interesting to rewatch
Speaker 1: a movie I saw as a kid. And then as
Speaker 1: an adult pick up on the more adult related happenings
Speaker 1: in the movie that just went way over my head.
Speaker 1: That one of those is the scene in Romancing the
Speaker 1: Stone that I saw in the theater when I was jeez,
Speaker 1: what year did that come out. I couldn't have been
Speaker 1: more than like ten years old. And they find this
Speaker 1: old abandoned cargo plane in the jungle that was used
Speaker 1: for for Holland weed through South America, and they're big
Speaker 1: bales of marijuana and he starts a fire with it,
Speaker 1: and there's just I just always remember Michael Douglas throws
Speaker 1: the big bale of wheat on the fire and goes,
Speaker 1: that's what I call it kip fire. And I don't
Speaker 1: When I was ten years old, I had no idea.
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, it looks nice. That's so funny
Speaker 1: the child. The big one for me was that I
Speaker 1: just didn't understand that it was a narrative thing was
Speaker 1: in pulp fiction. When she's doing cocaine, I understood what
Speaker 1: cocaine was sort of just you know, ephemarily, I guess
Speaker 1: or but she she does the heroin instead of cocaine,
Speaker 1: and then she probably didn't get the difference. I didn't
Speaker 1: understand the difference. Yeah, I I didn't understand the distinction.
Speaker 1: I assumed, Yeah, I just didn't get that narrative like
Speaker 1: little twist, but also did not understand that the gimp
Speaker 1: character was uh a only raping thing. Raimes's character did
Speaker 1: not pick up on that at all. When I was
Speaker 1: a little kid, I just think I just didn't know
Speaker 1: what I was looking at. And then I, oh, so
Speaker 1: when he was bent over and getting ramrotted, he didn't.
Speaker 1: I didn't understand what that. I just that was I was.
Speaker 1: I saw it very young, Chuck. I think I was
Speaker 1: probably like twelve or thirteen when I say that movie,
Speaker 1: and You're like, are they building something? Yeah? They wrestling
Speaker 1: helping him get a kink out of his neck, Like
Speaker 1: what's going on? He was helping him get a kink
Speaker 1: out of his butt hole exactly exactly. Oh goodness me.
Speaker 1: The innocence of youth is so so great. It really
Speaker 1: it's very fleeting, you know. Yeah, Yeah, that's for sure.
Speaker 1: I remember the first time I smelled pot at my
Speaker 1: very first concert when I saw a Cheap Trick when
Speaker 1: I was eleven at the Fox Seater here in Atlanta
Speaker 1: in two I smelled pot, and the first time you
Speaker 1: smell that smell, it's unlike. It's kind of like the
Speaker 1: first time you drink a beer, doesn't taste like anything
Speaker 1: you've ever tasted before. And I smelled the pot and
Speaker 1: it smelled like nothing else I had ever smelled. And
Speaker 1: I was like, what is it that? Do you remember
Speaker 1: thinking it was it was gross? Do you think that
Speaker 1: you thought it was a gross Did it register as
Speaker 1: a gross smell? Not? Really, It just smelled. It was
Speaker 1: just completely different than any other smell my little nose
Speaker 1: had ever registered. So I didn't know what to think
Speaker 1: about it. Yeah, it's funny. I brought you into uh
Speaker 1: to l A with me when we went up for
Speaker 1: the podcast Wars, and um, you were you were there,
Speaker 1: and um, we were staying at this hotel and uh,
Speaker 1: you know Hollywood near our studios, and I had to
Speaker 1: have the weed talk with her because every elevator smells
Speaker 1: like straight dank, and I just finally she kept being like,
Speaker 1: what is that? And you know, it wasn't like it
Speaker 1: was a big deal. I was just like, well, uh,
Speaker 1: here in California, marijuana it was legal, um, and so
Speaker 1: people can carry it around and the kind that they
Speaker 1: have here is really strong and has a very strong smell.
Speaker 1: So that's what that smell is. And she was yeah,
Speaker 1: and she was like, I don't like it. I'm like,
Speaker 1: that's fine, give it till your sixteen, okay, eight? And
Speaker 1: I'm kidding, jack I'm kidding obviously. Well, I mean, you know,
Speaker 1: kids are gonna do what they're gonna do. I think
Speaker 1: I didn't. Uh, I didn't try marijuana until I was
Speaker 1: in college, so I was. I was definitely on the
Speaker 1: straight and narrow as a high schooler. And I'm glad
Speaker 1: actually and totally yeah, yeah, I agree something. I mean
Speaker 1: when you're if you're getting stone when you're thirteen and fourteen,
Speaker 1: and almost all my friends did. Uh, I don't know,
Speaker 1: just too young. I think there's that line in the
Speaker 1: h in Jackie Brown where um, I think it's Robert
Speaker 1: de Niro's character says to Bridget Fonda's character, you gotta
Speaker 1: quit smoking. That she's gonna rob you of your combition ambition. Yeah, exactly,
Speaker 1: and she says, what if your ambition is to sit
Speaker 1: around and get stoned all day? It's such a great line,
Speaker 1: that's wonderful. That ship is gonna rob you of your ambition. Uh,
Speaker 1: let me see you here, Chez. There aren't no good
Speaker 1: weed movies. Everyone's saying half baked because that's the only
Speaker 1: one in Pineapple and Express they're even halfway good. Grandma's Boy,
Speaker 1: Courtney Huber says, grandma His Boy. I never heard of
Speaker 1: that one. Yeah, that one is one of the worst
Speaker 1: reviewed movies of all time? Is it really looks like
Speaker 1: that one? Up on a rotten Tomatoes hold on Grandma's
Speaker 1: Boy sixteen per cent? And it says a gross out
Speaker 1: comedy that's more gross than comedy. Grandma's Boy is lazy
Speaker 1: and unrewarding, and we'll rob you of your ambition, and
Speaker 1: we'll rob you of your ambitions. But here's the thing, though, dude,
Speaker 1: movies like this aren't meant to be well reviewed. No
Speaker 1: one's saying that these are epic works of like cinematic genius.
Speaker 1: They're just easy and fun and stupid, and you can
Speaker 1: turn your brain off and have a good time watching it,
Speaker 1: you know, and every pod head will watch it, So
Speaker 1: you've got that demographic built in. Because they don't have
Speaker 1: a they don't have a lot to choose from. Lennya
Speaker 1: Burnett says, Grandma's Boy as well. First movie my husband
Speaker 1: and I watched together and he's been proposed to me
Speaker 1: while we were watching it. Oh my lord, all right,
Speaker 1: all right, we're gonna give up on this one. A
Speaker 1: bunch of people are saying, day's confused. Sophia Fernandez head
Speaker 1: the Inger and one of our old friends. Uh yeah,
Speaker 1: all right, we did it. Oh this is a good one.
Speaker 1: That this is a little little line from Grandma's Boy review,
Speaker 1: just like this is really good writing here. The sex,
Speaker 1: fart and pot jokes come so fast and furious that
Speaker 1: a white flag seems the most appropriate response, like surrender,
Speaker 1: I give up. You're bombarding me with with sex, fart
Speaker 1: and pot jokes. All right, now we're gonna move on
Speaker 1: to another question asked about movie sequels, but specifically a
Speaker 1: movie sequel that is not part of a larger series
Speaker 1: or trilogy. So it can't be part two of three
Speaker 1: or two of four, just a one to punch, which
Speaker 1: happens less than you think, because it seems like once
Speaker 1: you make two, they're always saying like, let's do the trilogy,
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, unless you have some od tour that's like, no,
Speaker 1: it's it. We stopped it too well, And then people
Speaker 1: are cheating already, so if you cheated, you're not getting
Speaker 1: read Austin our dev Sky our old friend again, says
Speaker 1: a SPINERA when Nature Calls was way better than the
Speaker 1: first one. To me, all right, fair enough, I don't
Speaker 1: think I thought that one was very good. Actually that's
Speaker 1: the one I like. Well, I mean, there's the part
Speaker 1: where he like climbs out of a rubber rhinos ass
Speaker 1: like naked and covered in like weird amniotic fluid for
Speaker 1: some reason, and that's great. I don't, I don't. I
Speaker 1: just don't remember why he was, like, I think he
Speaker 1: was trapped. It was an amniotic flu I think it
Speaker 1: was sweat. I think he had been trapped inside of
Speaker 1: it and he ended up having the wedding to crawl
Speaker 1: out of like this rubber rhino decoy's ass um. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know. Like I thought the first day Spenturer
Speaker 1: was really fun, but I was also like eleven and uh,
Speaker 1: talk your butt was the height of of comedic timing
Speaker 1: for sure. Oh it was good. You know, it was funny.
Speaker 1: He was he was sort of at his physical comedic
Speaker 1: at the time. I think if you look back at
Speaker 1: the second one too, there's some kind of problematic cultural
Speaker 1: stuff in it, because I don't remember. It's like it's
Speaker 1: in you know, I think it's an Australia, Like it's
Speaker 1: the uh Aborigines or something like that, or it's some
Speaker 1: tribal group and there's this like this like Sacred Bat
Speaker 1: or something named like Wakaka or some ship, and like
Speaker 1: every time he says it, he says it and the
Speaker 1: kind of mocking Well, I don't know the whole thing is.
Speaker 1: I just remember it being a little weird, doesn't well, no,
Speaker 1: probably not. Here's one. I didn't even consider it because
Speaker 1: they were so far apart. But she's right. I think
Speaker 1: Catherine H. Brynnac or Bryniac says Blade Runner nine liked
Speaker 1: it even better on a second watch. I've only seen
Speaker 1: that once. I need to dive down into that one again.
Speaker 1: I really liked it. I think it's great. I find
Speaker 1: it to be a better movie than the first one
Speaker 1: in terms of just the story. Obviously, the first one
Speaker 1: broke so much ground in terms of like cinematography and
Speaker 1: using the miniatures and just the whole world building of it.
Speaker 1: But I thought the second one like had a more
Speaker 1: interesting story and just like had more nuance to it.
Speaker 1: I really really liked it. Yeah, for sure. People don't
Speaker 1: understand this question, nol. They're going with part threes and
Speaker 1: good God. Just just do what I say, everyone, Just
Speaker 1: do what I say. Just follow instructions. Brian p say,
Speaker 1: see one of Earl Pala says Wayne's roll too, uh,
Speaker 1: and he said it mostly holds up. I agree, Okay,
Speaker 1: Now I have not seen this yet. Our old friend
Speaker 1: Tany Collex from Australia says Paddington too. I've heard those
Speaker 1: are both really good there, wonderful, and I think to
Speaker 1: told me better. Two is better. That's absolutely accurate. It's got.
Speaker 1: It's uh Gleason, who's the elder Gleason? Um who no, no, no,
Speaker 1: like the the Irish guy. His son is Dom Hall Gleason.
Speaker 1: Is that his name? Oh it is Don Hall Gleason,
Speaker 1: his son. It's his son. Yeah. Oh I didn't know that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but he's in it. He plays this like this, this
Speaker 1: kind of hardened con vic to Paddington turns into a
Speaker 1: big old softie with his delightful warm heart making marmalade
Speaker 1: and stuff. And uh, it's got. Hugh Grant is in it,
Speaker 1: playing like this washed up actor. Um, it's just great
Speaker 1: and it's got a lot of great uh weirdo comedy
Speaker 1: people from Britain in it, like Richard Iwaddi and some
Speaker 1: of the people from like The Mighty Boush and a
Speaker 1: lot of those. It's just they're both really fantastic movies.
Speaker 1: All Right. I gotta see those because I think it
Speaker 1: was you that told me how great they were. You
Speaker 1: can watch them with Ruby too. Like I'm telling you,
Speaker 1: they're just one. They're wonderful. They're just there's there's jokes
Speaker 1: that you will get that she won't get, but just
Speaker 1: the action is all very pure and kind, and it's
Speaker 1: just they're they're really special movies. I'm telling you, it's
Speaker 1: crazy how we're there. I'm gonna do it. Daniel McCoy
Speaker 1: says Babe Pig in the City Complete one eight from
Speaker 1: the first movie in terms of tone, but Bonker is awesome. Uh.
Speaker 1: That is one of Jesse Thorne's favorite movies, so I'm
Speaker 1: gonna have to check that out. I never saw Babe two,
Speaker 1: but I've heard nothing but good things, and I love
Speaker 1: the first Babe. I still think it's so crazy that
Speaker 1: the same guy that did the Mad Max movies it's
Speaker 1: a little weird. Uh. Brian Jay and Gart says Escape
Speaker 1: from l A. The cameos and premise are fun and ridiculous.
Speaker 1: Uh wow interesting Escape from l A. It was terrible
Speaker 1: to me, awful. It's so bad. It's almost that there's
Speaker 1: a how did this get made? About it? And like
Speaker 1: it's got some of the worst like green screen effect
Speaker 1: that there's a part where he's like surfing. It looked
Speaker 1: like it was made thirty years before it was made exactly.
Speaker 1: It's bizarre, weird, but you know, I would watch it.
Speaker 1: It's definitely fun and there are some good cameos, but like,
Speaker 1: just everything about it just is off. It's just so
Speaker 1: so strange. Well and if it was one of those
Speaker 1: movies too that did the worst thing a sequel couldn't
Speaker 1: do to me too, which is to do the exact
Speaker 1: same film and just like a mad lib just replace
Speaker 1: few certain things in a different city. You know, so lazy,
Speaker 1: but hey we're yucking. Someone's young. He loved it. Old
Speaker 1: friend David Mills says, I always love Airplane Too. Not
Speaker 1: nearly as good as the original, but part two is
Speaker 1: still great. Yeah, I think Airplane Too was funny. Did
Speaker 1: you see those movies. No, probably not. I don't think so.
Speaker 1: I was more of a naked gun guy myself. Yeah,
Speaker 1: isn't that the same? Isn't that also Jerry Zucker the
Speaker 1: Zucker zu Zucker. Yeah, sure, it's a little spoof, funny,
Speaker 1: silly spoof movies. Our old friend beccal Loeo. Of course,
Speaker 1: Frozen two better than the first in every way. Yeah,
Speaker 1: pros and two was great. I loved it. Uh, let
Speaker 1: me see another vote for Blade Runner from Chris Nap
Speaker 1: Short Circuit too, that's from Eddie Waters. I gotta love
Speaker 1: a sequel with the balls not to cast any of
Speaker 1: the original actors. Okay, I don't think I realized that
Speaker 1: was the case. Isn't that the one where like the
Speaker 1: guy playing the Indian character was actually white? And yeah
Speaker 1: it was Fisher Stevens. Yeah that's the thing. Was that
Speaker 1: only in the first one though? Or did they, like
Speaker 1: course correct on the second one? I think I only
Speaker 1: hire an Indian guy. I think I only saw the
Speaker 1: first one, and if I'm reading this right, there was
Speaker 1: a whole different, uh character set in the second one.
Speaker 1: I don't even know. I might be wrong, but I'm
Speaker 1: certainly not gonna go watch it. And find out. Joe
Speaker 1: Herndon says Young Guns Too was better than the first.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to remember Young Guns was a big movie
Speaker 1: in my house in college. We watched that movie quite
Speaker 1: a bit, and I'm trying to remember if Young Guns
Speaker 1: Too was better or not, But I do. I think
Speaker 1: I remember liking it. Okay, they were you know, they
Speaker 1: weren't the best westerns, but they were good for the time.
Speaker 1: I think, you know, I think this is actually an
Speaker 1: Indian dude in the in search short circuit too, So
Speaker 1: maybe that's why. Maybe they like it was such a
Speaker 1: fallout from the first one that they were like, you know, well,
Speaker 1: let's let's do a mulligan, and they just kind of
Speaker 1: like recast the whole thing. I like the Young Guns
Speaker 1: movie a lot, and I really like the bon Jovi
Speaker 1: song let's associated with those movies. It's Blades of Glory. Yeah,
Speaker 1: shot dar in a blaze of glory. No. The only
Speaker 1: reason I did not start singing that, it's because I
Speaker 1: was just waiting on you, because I knew that you
Speaker 1: were going to built that out. Dude. I saw you
Speaker 1: even sitting back and taking a breath. Oh wait, No,
Speaker 1: Fisher Stevens isn't isn't a short circuit too, as is
Speaker 1: Michael McKean interesting. M So, I don't know if this
Speaker 1: guy's got his facts quite straight? Okay, remember that? All right? No,
Speaker 1: we're gonna do We're gonna move on here. We do
Speaker 1: a lot of hikus here on the old movie crush
Speaker 1: and hikus are easy. No, you know you say that, Chuck,
Speaker 1: you know it's not easy a limerick? Oh? Is that that's? Uh?
Speaker 1: How does that go? I knew a girl from Nantuckett
Speaker 1: who's you know, blah blah blah blah blah buckets. Yeah,
Speaker 1: she's something that something and something and something in Cluckets, right,
Speaker 1: got it? Those are tough? Yeah, well we just did one.
Speaker 1: Couldn't be that hard. It's pretty good. It's pretty good. Alright.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with my friend Mike. Of course, Mike
Speaker 1: did this. You remember Mike from the show Everyone. He
Speaker 1: was my pal who did Vernon Florida. Is his movie
Speaker 1: crush pick and Mike, Mike says this twas a middle
Speaker 1: school boys nightly trist and these are supposed to be
Speaker 1: movie related, by the way, and that's the whole point.
Speaker 1: Twas a middle school boys Nightly trist This alone time
Speaker 1: would not be missed. Cinemax took some rigging for some
Speaker 1: real quick gig gig gigging, just to boast that I'd
Speaker 1: seen Schindler's fist. Whoa Schindler's fist? Isn't that like a
Speaker 1: like a porn like like know, if it was a
Speaker 1: real one, they wouldn't have shown that on Cinemax though.
Speaker 1: They only had like The Red Shoe Diaries and you know,
Speaker 1: the light Erotica. You know they didn't have. Oh, I
Speaker 1: think it's best not to upbreak this down too seriously.
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, that's not a Cinemax film. I am
Speaker 1: fully No. I'm all I'm saying is I was on
Speaker 1: board until he named the film, and I'm like, no,
Speaker 1: you had me until the Schindler's fist. That No, you
Speaker 1: had me until the fist. All right? Mark, If you
Speaker 1: hear my dogs barking in the background, that's because that's
Speaker 1: just any that's just life. Yeah, anything happened outside, It
Speaker 1: could be a leaf falling on the ground. It. Mark
Speaker 1: Colebinson came up with this one for Carrie for a
Speaker 1: very scary carry to get laid for senior prom she
Speaker 1: must turn up her lovely charm and her best red dress.
Speaker 1: Must down this telekinetic spark plug, all drenched in blood
Speaker 1: of friends, must with a lure primrose powers ensure a
Speaker 1: sweet night's end. All right, they'd a bit from the
Speaker 1: rhyming pattern, but that's okay. It kind of sounds like
Speaker 1: like like a riddle that the troll would ask of
Speaker 1: you at a bridge crossing? What is your name? Exactly?
Speaker 1: Our oldest of friends kbo Kelly Butler Olsen says this.
Speaker 1: There once was a girl named Ariel. She saved a
Speaker 1: hot guy and she fell in love. He's a prince
Speaker 1: the fish. They dropped hints for her name because she
Speaker 1: just couldn't tell. So that only works if you pronounced
Speaker 1: it Ariel Ariel Ariel because because it fell and then
Speaker 1: tell right, I probably screwed it. I think you know
Speaker 1: I would pronounce it Ariel. That's in Little Mermaid, right,
Speaker 1: I would never pronounce it arie L. So I think
Speaker 1: our our limerick writer is making an assumption that we
Speaker 1: would pronounce a name incorrectly to make her rhyme scheme work.
Speaker 1: So hey, that's okay. She's one of our oldest friends
Speaker 1: and all, what are you gonna do her like that.
Speaker 1: I'm not doing it. I'm just look, I'm just keeping
Speaker 1: a real man. To another old pal cat, Jim Bruno
Speaker 1: says this, There once was a bike and a man.
Speaker 1: The bike was stolen. An adventure began with large march.
Speaker 1: He traveled far road with an outlaw in a car.
Speaker 1: No one can do tequila dance like be we can,
Speaker 1: big adventure. It's pretty good for me so far. Okay,
Speaker 1: you go in there. I mean, I don't know, I mean,
Speaker 1: I guess, I'm I don't know. I'm feeling judge you
Speaker 1: today for some reason. Chuck all right, givon the Bodette,
Speaker 1: one of our old friends, says this, a man reliving
Speaker 1: the same day. He makes sure that things go his way,
Speaker 1: but he slowly finds out that's not what love is about.
Speaker 1: And punk Sitani is where he will stay. That's pretty good.
Speaker 1: That's very good, okay, yea solid, really good, very solid
Speaker 1: Limerick Groundhog Day. I no, no, he was. That was
Speaker 1: pulp fiction shit. Oldest of friends, Austin our deb skis
Speaker 1: on it today. There once was a bat named Wayne.
Speaker 1: To all the villains and bad guys, he brought pain
Speaker 1: with pal whack and zop he fought through the night.
Speaker 1: M hmm, shouldn't that rhyme with zop? He was true,
Speaker 1: He truly was the dark night. Three cheers for the
Speaker 1: bat name Wayne. I think there was something missing in there,
Speaker 1: but that was still good. That's about Wayne's world, right,
Speaker 1: Uh huh, that's right. Oh, let me see here, Little Dan.
Speaker 1: This is from Brian Pass, one of our oldest of friends.
Speaker 1: Little Danny knew he was in for a scare. Those
Speaker 1: twins seemed friendly, but oh what a pair. And beware
Speaker 1: tub ladies seems super hot. But goodness no, she's really not.
Speaker 1: It was all bound to happen, even though it's not
Speaker 1: fair because Dad's always been the caretaker. There. I think
Speaker 1: there was an extra line in there. People. Yeah, he
Speaker 1: says he cheated. He acknowledged at least a cop to it.
Speaker 1: I can understand that. I can respect that limericks are hard.
Speaker 1: Let me see Ian Tyson says this, a young farmer
Speaker 1: by the name of sky Walker, and Han his old buddy,
Speaker 1: a talker, and the falcon they fly. Don't get cocky,
Speaker 1: he'll cry. Find the princess invader her stalker pretty good
Speaker 1: as far as I'm concerned. If you nail that rhyming scheme.
Speaker 1: Then you've done it right for sure. The limericky. But
Speaker 1: until like there's lots of dirty limericks, you think that's
Speaker 1: usually yeah, sort of the point is to talk about
Speaker 1: someone's body parts, some sort of body Canterbury Tales esque. Yeah,
Speaker 1: kind of situation. The miller, the miller told us tale. Uh.
Speaker 1: Dan Floyd says this in tree Sap they found d
Speaker 1: n A and then started cloning away. They thought they
Speaker 1: were starre role and now they're in peril, thus proving
Speaker 1: that life finds a way. Hats off to you, sir,
Speaker 1: quite good, very very very zippy. That is a good one.
Speaker 1: Oh here's the Jaws one, all right, is from Dylan H.
Speaker 1: Smith in the In the New England Island of Amity,
Speaker 1: a shark attack causes calamity. They'll need a big vote
Speaker 1: and also a vote because Vaughan being mayor is in
Speaker 1: the sequels insanity. Okay, I get it. The fact that
Speaker 1: him is He's still the mayor in the sequel, got it,
Speaker 1: I got you. It's like a Trump to term is
Speaker 1: Jaws to the one that has Dennis Quaid in it?
Speaker 1: Or is that three? Mm hmm. I want to say
Speaker 1: that's three. Yeah, because two is still Roy Scheider. Again,
Speaker 1: that was kind of a none of none of the
Speaker 1: sequels are good, but not our hero or our other hero.
Speaker 1: The underwater guy. Mr. Holland's opus guy. What the hell
Speaker 1: is his name? Yust, He's not in it. He's not
Speaker 1: into no no, no, no, uh yeah, this is our
Speaker 1: old belt Jimmy Mallory. He's clearly doesn't know what a
Speaker 1: limerick is. I'm gonna read it just because this is
Speaker 1: what he says to the Mirth Mobile Bohemian Rhapsody. We're
Speaker 1: not worthy schwing. I think is that a Haiku's mirth Mobile?
Speaker 1: Yes it is. Oh God, bless you, Jimmy. That's great.
Speaker 1: He's he just wasn't expecting the curve ball that was
Speaker 1: the limerick challenge. Yeah, which is interesting because I very
Speaker 1: specifically say, hikus are easy. Let's do limericks. That's all right,
Speaker 1: all right, here's me Linda Baccalo. When a wor old
Speaker 1: friend says this about Ghostbusters, Dana has seen a ghost.
Speaker 1: Peter acts like a game show host. Who are you
Speaker 1: going to call? Ghost explode out of the wall? Stay puffed?
Speaker 1: Is who Ray thinks of the most all right, you've
Speaker 1: heared a bit, but that's okay. I'm giving anyone a
Speaker 1: big old wide birth year, nol. I think that's fair
Speaker 1: and very empathetic of your chuck. And these are troubled times.
Speaker 1: Let me see here. This is from Joshua Edman from
Speaker 1: Reservoir Dogs. There once was a man called Mr Pink
Speaker 1: in a coffee shop. He made a stink. The others
Speaker 1: all died by the time he arrived. All he and
Speaker 1: he got all the cash. So we think pretty good cute,
Speaker 1: Joshua Edman. Uh, I applaud your efforts to just do
Speaker 1: a reservoir Dogs Limerick. I love it. Some people are
Speaker 1: doing several that are clearly enthralled with limericks. Let me
Speaker 1: see here. It's a lost art. You know you don't.
Speaker 1: Nobody really does limericks anymore. I appreciate you bringing this,
Speaker 1: bringing this back up, Chuck, Amen, let's bring back Oh.
Speaker 1: Let me see here, Sabrina Grogan. There once was a
Speaker 1: fellow named Rhett whose love was a Southern coquette. He
Speaker 1: tried hard to shake her, but he had too heartbreaker.
Speaker 1: Do you do you think he ever had some regret?
Speaker 1: That's a good one. Gone with the wind. Nice work.
Speaker 1: Have you seen Gone with If you're rhyming Coquette, Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: with Rhett, then you've done a good job. Yes, of
Speaker 1: course I've seen Gone with the Wind NL. I have
Speaker 1: not seen it, Chuck. Does that make me a bad person? No?
Speaker 1: That makes you null? Okay, that's a That's not a
Speaker 1: movie I would have expected you to see. Let's just
Speaker 1: say that. I started watching it on a plane once,
Speaker 1: but I found it a little, a little tiresome, and
Speaker 1: I switched to Fast and the Furious movie. I think
Speaker 1: so you watched the opposite of Gone with the Wind. Basically, Uh,
Speaker 1: Scott Field says this Chuck doesn't like Kevin Smith. This
Speaker 1: really has me quite miffed. Clerks is the bomb, the
Speaker 1: milk Lady is his mom. It's what It's what you
Speaker 1: expect from a guy who smokes splits. Well, he didn't
Speaker 1: smoke pot back then, so in your face, Scott deal. Interesting. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think some people, uh are mad at me because
Speaker 1: I don't love Kevin Smith. I don't really love Kevin Smith,
Speaker 1: all right. I do like I like Dogma, and I
Speaker 1: like Clerks, and I liked Mall Rats just fine. But
Speaker 1: would I ever find myself like to go back and
Speaker 1: rewatch them and you know his careers. I like him
Speaker 1: as a personality. I think he's a really interesting interview
Speaker 1: and I like his podcast, and um, he's got some
Speaker 1: great stories and he's he's an interesting dude, you think
Speaker 1: I do. I think he's I'd like to like kick
Speaker 1: it with them, and like you know, you would, I would.
Speaker 1: I would totally blaze down with Evan Smith. Yeah, okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: just that's great. Now. I hope you guys have fun.
Speaker 1: I hope you're I hope you don't plan on saying
Speaker 1: many words while you're doing that. What do you mean
Speaker 1: because he's gonna don't let me get one in edgewise?
Speaker 1: Is that what you maybe? Perhaps fair enough? I see
Speaker 1: where you're going with That's all right, He's great. You
Speaker 1: might alter ego Brett Giles. Brett Giles gives us this
Speaker 1: ho ho ho. I have a machine gun and Severus
Speaker 1: snap is on the run. Who cares about glass? It's
Speaker 1: a pain in my ass though I'm barefoot. These Germans
Speaker 1: are done. Oh cute. It would be a I'm sorry, Chuck,
Speaker 1: I must correct you as the resident Harry Potter expert here,
Speaker 1: it's Severust Snape, my dude, Okay, it's not snap uh
Speaker 1: snape snape Snap what I say? Snap Snap? That's from
Speaker 1: Harry Potter. Yeah, Severus Snape is the character that Alan
Speaker 1: Rickman plays him in the har Okay, this all made
Speaker 1: sense because I was like, hey, this is die hard.
Speaker 1: I don't know that severe snappet. What a dumb ship.
Speaker 1: Just had to had to school you on some Potter.
Speaker 1: I'm really glad. Here's another one from Joshua Edman. He's
Speaker 1: having a good time with these. A high school lad
Speaker 1: named Max Fisher developed a crush on a teacher. Herman
Speaker 1: complained her affections depleted, and so she wound up with
Speaker 1: neither man. Rhyme scheme just really took a dive there.
Speaker 1: He said, there's a lot of slant rhymes, but I
Speaker 1: think that still works. Okay. Fisher developed a Chrishner teacher,
Speaker 1: herman competed, refections depleted. Oh, and so she wound up
Speaker 1: with neither No, I think that works. I might have
Speaker 1: read it wrong at first. Maybe maybe that's it. Maybe
Speaker 1: that's it. He's like, you screwed up my limerick. Man.
Speaker 1: I love the I love the language though. I love
Speaker 1: the Yeah, it's it's very Uh, the words a word play. Yes,
Speaker 1: all right, let's finish up here. These are these are
Speaker 1: all really good. Let's finish up with our old pal,
Speaker 1: David Mills. Will Ferrell can cause some people friction for
Speaker 1: good actors. Nobody picks him. But if you want to
Speaker 1: see a movie where he excels, watch Stranger than Fiction.
Speaker 1: You're sort of wrapping it around there. I get it.
Speaker 1: Is that the that's the Farrell one that's like Stranger
Speaker 1: than Fiction. Yeah, it's good movie. It feels like a
Speaker 1: poor man's Charlie Kaufman script kind of a little bit, uh,
Speaker 1: kind of has that vibe, has like a being John
Speaker 1: Malkovich kind of vibe. Uh. It was a good movie.
Speaker 1: I haven't seen it. I just just from the trailer
Speaker 1: and from reading about it. I think I was turned
Speaker 1: off to it because I felt like it was ripping,
Speaker 1: you know, Charlie Kaufman a little bit. But I'll check
Speaker 1: it out. It's worth it. It was good, good, Yeah,
Speaker 1: totally worth it. Uh. And know what, I am going
Speaker 1: to read one more because here's one from Evil Dead, Uh,
Speaker 1: the Evil Dead series from James G. Woodbeck. A dead
Speaker 1: eyed hunter named Ash with his chainsaw arm. He did
Speaker 1: slash necronomicons curse in his hand. It got worse. He
Speaker 1: took it off with a heck and a splash. So good?
Speaker 1: Is that too? Is that specifically referencing too or is
Speaker 1: that army of darkness? I think that would be too
Speaker 1: since he definitely referenced the chainsaw. But but that was
Speaker 1: well done. I'm gonna try and write some limericks, noll.
Speaker 1: This is my new hobby. I think I had a
Speaker 1: little social distancing outdoor hang for the first time, and
Speaker 1: all of this with a dear, dear friend of mine,
Speaker 1: um and we watched Evil Dead to projected on the
Speaker 1: side of his house while while we all sat like
Speaker 1: six ft apart or more around a fire. We also
Speaker 1: watched What's New Pussycat? Have you seen that? It's so
Speaker 1: sexist and does not hold up, but it is delightful.
Speaker 1: It's so stupid, and it's a movie at the time.
Speaker 1: It really is at the time, it's like it's a
Speaker 1: Woody Allen first screenwriting credit, I believe, and he's in
Speaker 1: it and plays this nebbish little you know, kind of
Speaker 1: like loser character who can't get the girl, you know,
Speaker 1: very archetempal Woody Allen, But um Peter Sellers plays the
Speaker 1: quack psychiatrists with the bad haircut and the French accent.
Speaker 1: It's really really fat and fantastic. That's great. Was that
Speaker 1: you watched that same night? Same night we can double feature. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we watched most of that. We realized it was getting
Speaker 1: really long or like how much movie is left, and
Speaker 1: there was like a whole hour and a half left,
Speaker 1: and so we just kind of raged through, like just
Speaker 1: fast forward and just to see, like because it gets
Speaker 1: kind of ridiculous, like it said, Oh, and then there's
Speaker 1: a car race and you know, it's just there's like
Speaker 1: a bull whip kind of kink party. All of a sudden,
Speaker 1: it's just a very strange movie and kind of meanders.
Speaker 1: And then we put on Evil Dead two and watched
Speaker 1: that all the way through because it's just it is
Speaker 1: so good. Chuck, let me ask you this, have you
Speaker 1: ever thought about, like what as someone who's worked on film,
Speaker 1: like to set up some of those shots and Evil
Speaker 1: did too. Just the logistics of it. It's out of control,
Speaker 1: the way the way he's like moving through the forest
Speaker 1: and breaking tree limbs and like flipping upside down and
Speaker 1: all that stuff. I mean, just the reality of having
Speaker 1: to rig that stuff. It's just mind boggling to me. Yeah,
Speaker 1: when I did the Evil Dead to episode with Joe Garden,
Speaker 1: he beats a student of that film, and he they
Speaker 1: actually rigged this big iron cross and strapped him to
Speaker 1: it and spun him like there were you know, everything
Speaker 1: in that movie almost was practical effects. You know, there
Speaker 1: was no CG going on. So when he's going through
Speaker 1: the wood spinning there overcranking that camera or I guess
Speaker 1: undercranking the camera and spinning him in a circle, and
Speaker 1: that's just what it looks like. It's amazing, it's incredible.
Speaker 1: It really is like a uh, cinematic feat the whole thing,
Speaker 1: you know. So, Noel, What's New? Pussycat is one hour
Speaker 1: and fifty minutes long, So twenty minutes into the film,
Speaker 1: you guys were saying, how much longer is this? Okay, Chuck,
Speaker 1: I'm probably exaggerating a little bit. Like my mother always said,
Speaker 1: I never let the facts stand in the way of
Speaker 1: a good story. I think was that a good story?
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'm being such a wow Chuck, Now, that
Speaker 1: was a great story, and I'm just totally riming. It's fine, Chuck,
Speaker 1: This quarantine is really really changing people, isn't it. Oh
Speaker 1: not me, I'll always give you a hard time. Alright. No,
Speaker 1: I think that was a good one in the can
Speaker 1: Happy April everyone, I think. Uh, isn't it Earth Day two?
Speaker 1: Or is that tomorrow? Happy Quarantinea Ween Quarantine Ica sure
Speaker 1: coren Twanza quarantismus. Uh. Yeah, I hope everyone enjoyed this. Um,
Speaker 1: we're like I said, this month. Sorry, this Friday, we're
Speaker 1: gonna be back with searching for Bobby official official? What
Speaker 1: am my two years old? No comment? I hurt, I hurt,
Speaker 1: my shoulder, my hail, hoots, my hell? Uh searching for
Speaker 1: Bobby Fisher on Friday with Cold Stratton. Uh. Emily and
Speaker 1: I are going to continue doing these quarantine house games.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you've heard that. No, we're we're
Speaker 1: doing this game that I saw a meme online where
Speaker 1: they had eight different houses of five very disparate celebrities
Speaker 1: and you have to choose which which house you would
Speaker 1: want to be quarantined with. So it's like you know
Speaker 1: some really good people and then like a couple of
Speaker 1: awful people, So you really have to think about, like, boy,
Speaker 1: I get this person that I love and this person
Speaker 1: that I love, but I have to endure this person,
Speaker 1: like which house do I want to be in? So
Speaker 1: we did a special EP on that that was from
Speaker 1: the meme. And now I'm starting to write my own
Speaker 1: and construct my own two especially frustrate Emily and UH,
Speaker 1: and we're going to be doing more of those as well.
Speaker 1: Good stuff. I look forward to hearing some of those,
Speaker 1: Chuck and UH to getting back together for some more minis.
Speaker 1: This is always always a highlight of my week. Yeah,
Speaker 1: me too, man, And I can't wait to give you
Speaker 1: a big old hug next time we can see each other.
