Speaker 1: Welcome to Movie Crush, a production of I Heart Radio.
Speaker 1: Hey everybody, Welcome to Movie Crush. Mini Crush Monday, the
Speaker 1: return of nol Juice Harp, Chuck, Oh Dark Mountain Harp,
Speaker 1: if you please. You know, I actually looked that up
Speaker 1: because it was a part of a Stuff you Should
Speaker 1: Know Live show one time, and I was like, listen
Speaker 1: before I say juice harp on stage, I want to
Speaker 1: make sure this is not offensive, and the Internet and
Speaker 1: told me it was not defensive. I'm just easy, you'd like,
Speaker 1: but it is funny how it was rebranded, probably unnecessarily
Speaker 1: with the more pc ozark mouth harp moniker I'm doing okay,
Speaker 1: Chuck Quarantine has been a little nuts um. And the
Speaker 1: reason I busted this out I just found this in
Speaker 1: my freezer, the juice harp. Yeah, what was it doing
Speaker 1: in there? Well, I I obviously put it in there
Speaker 1: while it's drunk or something, you know, quarantine drunk, which
Speaker 1: is drunk. I mean it is, but you know it was.
Speaker 1: It was a nice surprise. It was sort of resting
Speaker 1: on a bag of frozen peas, and uh, now I
Speaker 1: have it at my desk here. Well, so I'm now
Speaker 1: going to buy one of these. I just went to
Speaker 1: Amazon and they have them listed as jaw harps. And
Speaker 1: now I'm wondering if the Internet lied to me, and
Speaker 1: if that is truly an offensive thing to say the
Speaker 1: Internet never lied, Chuck. I mean, the Internet is just
Speaker 1: a mirror reflecting back our own greatest fears and insecurities.
Speaker 1: And now I'm wondering the difference between a four and
Speaker 1: any nine jaw harp and a fifty seven dollar jaw harp. Well,
Speaker 1: it's all in the vibrations, Chuck, in the in the material,
Speaker 1: you know. The four one is probably like what I've
Speaker 1: got here, It's probably made of some you know, crappy metal,
Speaker 1: when the expensive one is probably made of like wrought
Speaker 1: iron or like some So was like it was like,
Speaker 1: you know, pulled up from an old railway line. You know,
Speaker 1: I feel like I need to get one of the
Speaker 1: maybe the middle ground ones, like the thirty dollar one,
Speaker 1: work your way up to the high end one you got.
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, first of all, I know you
Speaker 1: can pick it up, Chuck, but it took me a while.
Speaker 1: You really have to press it against your teeth really hard,
Speaker 1: and that really triggers some people. Some people don't like
Speaker 1: teeth and metal, and uh so it's not for everyone. Well,
Speaker 1: I had one when I was a kid, and I
Speaker 1: did not touch my teeth with it. I wrapped my
Speaker 1: lips around my teeth and did it that way. Are
Speaker 1: you supposed to press it against your teeth. That's the
Speaker 1: only way that it vibrates. It needs to vibrate like
Speaker 1: vibrates against your whole skull. So it's the whole thing.
Speaker 1: I don't know how your lips. It would your lips
Speaker 1: would dampen the vibrations. I would say, hey, it's not here,
Speaker 1: Try it real quick with your lips. Don't understand. Oh
Speaker 1: you're describing here? Oh my god, you're right. Shock. See
Speaker 1: you don't have to put against your teeth. The Internet
Speaker 1: lied to me too. Oh I hate you Internet. You're
Speaker 1: so dishonest and shitty. We can't live without you, especially
Speaker 1: during these are troubled core times. Yeah. So, um, this
Speaker 1: is the first time you've been on in a few weeks.
Speaker 1: I I've sent you a text just to make sure
Speaker 1: that you knew. It was nothing personal. I just while
Speaker 1: people are stuck at home, I thought i'd throw some
Speaker 1: just different sort of special shows their way and had
Speaker 1: hodgment on for a couple and then Josh made his
Speaker 1: first appearance, which was a very big deal on movie Crush.
Speaker 1: Was it like a proper crush. It was like a
Speaker 1: proper sit down. He he did a mini which I thought,
Speaker 1: you know, he was gonna come on for a regular crush.
Speaker 1: We've been talking about it since the show started, but
Speaker 1: I thought the many would be a more fun thing
Speaker 1: to do right now with him then to sit around
Speaker 1: and talk about paper Moon for an hour, which is
Speaker 1: a great movie, to be shorter, and it was. We
Speaker 1: had a blast. We did it a cocktail hour. We'ch
Speaker 1: had a drink and uh, it was a lot of
Speaker 1: fun na. Chuck. I just want to point out, you know,
Speaker 1: there are such a thing as a three way podcast.
Speaker 1: You know, you could have invited me to the cocktail hour.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have been like offended or anything. Can we
Speaker 1: do that? Can we It's a technology there? Oh, the
Speaker 1: technology is there, my man. So we just we just
Speaker 1: do a three way skype call and everyone and then
Speaker 1: we all record our sides and then we put it
Speaker 1: all in post into the magic computer bucket and then
Speaker 1: it comes out, Shake it up, and it comes out
Speaker 1: a podcast that's exactly right. Uh, you know what, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna have to try that then, because I was just wondering.
Speaker 1: I just recorded with Annie Reese and uh, I was
Speaker 1: thinking because she wants to do Empire strikes Back, but
Speaker 1: so does Paul, and I was like, I wonder if
Speaker 1: we can all three do this in quarantine. Dude, we
Speaker 1: do stuff that I want you to know with three
Speaker 1: of us. Yeah, so yeah, all right, well you and
Speaker 1: I should get it go and then I would love
Speaker 1: that that'd be a lot of fun. Um. So you,
Speaker 1: let's catch up a little more when I when I
Speaker 1: know you saw the picture of my face, but when
Speaker 1: I popped up on your skype, you you jumped back
Speaker 1: in horror at my big, ground naked face. I think
Speaker 1: you look great. Honestly, Chuck, it was it was for effect.
Speaker 1: It was for your benefit. Um. But yeah, no, it's uh.
Speaker 1: I think I've told the story about how the one
Speaker 1: time I shaved my face when my kid was like
Speaker 1: maybe two, she started crying and she freaked out and
Speaker 1: didn't know who I was. So I was just jarring.
Speaker 1: It's a jarring experience. You know. It is certainly a
Speaker 1: good thing to have a beard that everyone recognizes you
Speaker 1: with so that if you ever have to run from
Speaker 1: the law, you can just shave and then no one
Speaker 1: will ever know it was you. Yeah, and it's funny,
Speaker 1: you know, people go incognito by wearing fake beards and things.
Speaker 1: I am unrecognizable right now in public, Not that I
Speaker 1: get recognize that much anyway, but uh, I definitely without
Speaker 1: my hat and my beard and about twelve years younger
Speaker 1: and unrecognizable as me. Yeah, I would look very young too.
Speaker 1: I have a bit of a baby face as well. Um, yeah,
Speaker 1: I didn't look a slight spoiler for like a twenty
Speaker 1: five year old movie. But there's a Spanish film called
Speaker 1: Amorros Paros, which is wonderful, but that's sort of one
Speaker 1: of the devices in it. There's this character you always
Speaker 1: see as this light, homeless kind of like bum who
Speaker 1: true picks up strays that are like from the dog
Speaker 1: fighting world and trains them and has them as pets
Speaker 1: or whatever, and then something happens. I remember exactly what happens,
Speaker 1: but he ends up shaving, trimming his nails, putting on
Speaker 1: a suit, and he just looks like a completely different
Speaker 1: human And it's one of the coolest like transformations in
Speaker 1: a movie that I've ever seen. It was really great. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I was worried about Ruby, and um. She spent the
Speaker 1: night in my mom's house and came back the next
Speaker 1: day and I met her at the car and she
Speaker 1: had a very sad look on her face, and she said,
Speaker 1: why did you cut your beard? And she said I
Speaker 1: don't like you with your beard cut. Oh no, And
Speaker 1: I was like, you know, it's still me, kiddo, And
Speaker 1: she kind of couldn't look me in the eye for
Speaker 1: about probably about fifteen minutes. She sort of sulked around
Speaker 1: and didn't want to look at me. And then I
Speaker 1: wormed my way in there and got a snuggle, and
Speaker 1: she eventually touched my face and said I looked funny,
Speaker 1: And then that was fine. Yeah, isn't it funny? How?
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously with children, but anyone, you know, uh,
Speaker 1: really get a personal attachment to either like the length
Speaker 1: of people's hair and they're like, oh my god, you
Speaker 1: cut your hair. It's like it's on the front to
Speaker 1: me personally that you've made this choice. You know, people
Speaker 1: are very strange, Chuck, Well, kids get attached, you know.
Speaker 1: She cried the other day because I had a new
Speaker 1: horse and Red dead redemption, Um, because she was kill
Speaker 1: your horse. I didn't. I got a better horse, and
Speaker 1: I couldn't tell her that. I was like, oh no, no, no,
Speaker 1: the other horse is still in the stable. I didn't
Speaker 1: tell her just sort of you know, I got rid
Speaker 1: of the horse, definitely didn't send it to the glue factory.
Speaker 1: So what else is going on? Anything else you need
Speaker 1: to catch up on? And I think you mentioned before
Speaker 1: that you were moving. I've decided to move you and
Speaker 1: I got the the email from my landlord that my
Speaker 1: lease is up. I didn't realize it was quite so soon,
Speaker 1: But I've been wanting to get a bigger place. Uh not.
Speaker 1: I have a roommate I love dearly. Um. We've been
Speaker 1: friends for a long time, and it's not really out
Speaker 1: of necessity. It's more just like we like each other
Speaker 1: and enjoy living together and it's you know, cheaper and fun.
Speaker 1: But you're gonna hang with this roommate in the new
Speaker 1: place too, No, I'm not, That's what I'm saying. I've
Speaker 1: got to this place where, like I just really want
Speaker 1: you know, he's got a girlfriend and I've got eleven
Speaker 1: year old and I just have got to the point
Speaker 1: where I want my own space, like form my recording equipment.
Speaker 1: You guys can't see it, obviously, but I'm in my
Speaker 1: bedroom right now and I'm surrounded by synthesizers and guitars
Speaker 1: and it's all like feet away from my bed. And
Speaker 1: I want a house with like a office, like a
Speaker 1: third room where I can have all that, especially not
Speaker 1: knowing how long this work from home situation is gonna
Speaker 1: go on. I've really realized I want to better space
Speaker 1: for myself because I've been stuck in this one and
Speaker 1: really kind of hit home the fact that I don't
Speaker 1: really like it anymore. I've outgrown it. So so you're
Speaker 1: gonna go han solo and live alone with alone, use
Speaker 1: a house. I mean, I've got I've got a ton.
Speaker 1: It's funny. My ex wife I've mentioned she and I
Speaker 1: are really really good friends. She has taken this cause
Speaker 1: on and she is just so kind me the perfect place.
Speaker 1: So we're actually she's coming over this afternoon and we're
Speaker 1: gonna go look at a few spots together. But part
Speaker 1: of East Lake, uh, kind of Candler Decatur area, really
Speaker 1: really really close to where you guys and she U lives,
Speaker 1: and um, yeah, I just want to be closer to
Speaker 1: her and the family because I really spent a lot
Speaker 1: of time with them, and I really love love that
Speaker 1: love their family and their their daughter and not not
Speaker 1: mine the other one. We're kind of un Uncle Noel,
Speaker 1: they call me. So it's like a weird, excredied family
Speaker 1: and we're excited about they're sort of an East Lake
Speaker 1: Candler mccafee, Yeah, kind of. Well, it's funny, it's not.
Speaker 1: I mean, you're you're ten minutes from there. All these
Speaker 1: neighborhoods are so close exactly. It's really that's just kind
Speaker 1: of secondary. But I also, like, you know, I've I've
Speaker 1: been doing well with work and put a little little
Speaker 1: put a little money away, and um, couldn't have happened
Speaker 1: at a better time. I just feel like the universe
Speaker 1: was telling me, this is what you want to do
Speaker 1: and I do. Is this is this going to be
Speaker 1: your first, um time you've lived by yourself? It is, actually, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's a big deal and it's a lot of fun.
Speaker 1: I remember the first time I lived by myself was
Speaker 1: when I moved to l A. I got my first
Speaker 1: apartment by myself, and it was fucking awesome, so fun
Speaker 1: to have your own space in charge of your own domain.
Speaker 1: Roommates are great, but when you finally make that move, uh,
Speaker 1: you're gonna be better for it. Dude. I can't wait
Speaker 1: to get for you to get your home office and
Speaker 1: studio up and running. Yeah. No, I'm really excited, and
Speaker 1: I feel like I'm at this place where I'm ready
Speaker 1: to kind of go to the next stage of my existence,
Speaker 1: and I think this is a good push in that direction.
Speaker 1: So thanks, Chuck. You're all grows up. Noel. Well, I
Speaker 1: don't like took me thirty six years. Well, when I
Speaker 1: moved to l A. I moved to l A in
Speaker 1: like two thousand one, so night to let's say, twenty
Speaker 1: years ago. I was in my late twenties, early thirties.
Speaker 1: I guess I'm a labo late bloomer, Chuck, I mean
Speaker 1: I was to There's there's no shame in that, alright, Noel.
Speaker 1: So I can write I can mark catch up off
Speaker 1: my list because we did that. That's sure. What a chore.
Speaker 1: That was too, A real slog. It's good seeing you, man. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's too, dude. So we're gonna move on. I've been
Speaker 1: meeting I wanted to do this with Hodgeman. I wanted
Speaker 1: to do it with Josh, but we ran short on
Speaker 1: both of those, and so I'm finally getting to use
Speaker 1: it now. On the movie Crush page, I posted geez
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago now, and this is something
Speaker 1: I borrowed from movie Crusher. Jason Roberts. He posted this
Speaker 1: on the crushers page and I reposted to get to
Speaker 1: get some more traction here, and he posted a very
Speaker 1: cool question. And I don't think we've ever discussed, which
Speaker 1: is what two actors? Two or more actors do you
Speaker 1: get confused? Oh gosh, I've got one immediately, let's hear
Speaker 1: at the point to the point where I already can't
Speaker 1: even differentiate them in my mind. Uh, Christopher Maloney? Um,
Speaker 1: who was Let's see he was in? Uh, he's in
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff. Um Christopher, hold on, I got
Speaker 1: I got because I really can't even remember the other
Speaker 1: guy's name. Maloney. Christopher Maloney. He's an actor. He's an actor, Okay,
Speaker 1: I got him. Isn't he in? Uh? An I'm trying
Speaker 1: to decide who he looks like. Now? Wait is that No?
Speaker 1: This is not an actor that I just pulled up? Yeah,
Speaker 1: So Christopher, if you I can I can text you
Speaker 1: his IMDb. Really Maloney with it, Okay, I know that guy.
Speaker 1: I know you're gonna say, Elias Cotias probably exactly. They
Speaker 1: look they look like indistinguishable to me. I always am
Speaker 1: having a hard time differentiating them. Elias Katias exactly. And
Speaker 1: when you and when you type in Christopher Maloney and
Speaker 1: then the letter E Elias Cotius comes up, so it is.
Speaker 1: And there are a lot of comp pictures listed of
Speaker 1: them side by side, So this is not, like, you know, unusual,
Speaker 1: But it's the one that always gets me because I
Speaker 1: will often say, remember that guy from that one movie,
Speaker 1: and it'll be the movie the other guy was in,
Speaker 1: and like Casey Jones and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,
Speaker 1: I don't, I can't. I couldn't tell you which one
Speaker 1: of them played him. I know it was one of
Speaker 1: those two guys. It's funny that looking at celebrity look alikes. Now,
Speaker 1: of course, the Will Ferrell Chad Smith thing, it's always funny.
Speaker 1: That is funny and true they look a lot alike.
Speaker 1: Actually it's weird al right. So let's see what the
Speaker 1: crushers have to say. Um, this's got a lot of
Speaker 1: good traction Uh, let me see here. Let's start off
Speaker 1: with and some of these make total sense. And some
Speaker 1: of these people admit they're like I don't even know why.
Speaker 1: They don't even really look alike. But it's just one
Speaker 1: of those brain things. Uh. One of our favorite names
Speaker 1: here on the Crushers page, Margarita Shadowmago, says, I don't
Speaker 1: know why in God's name I mix them up, but
Speaker 1: Christopher Walkin and Steve Bashimmy, I always need a beat
Speaker 1: before remembering who is who. Sometimes it's characters people play um.
Speaker 1: Sometimes it's like a Paxton Pullman thing where it's just
Speaker 1: the name. Yeah, it's tough too, especially if you have,
Speaker 1: like some actors that are known for their characters and
Speaker 1: really chameleonic. You could definitely, you know, confuse one version
Speaker 1: of them with like somebody that maybe they were inspired
Speaker 1: by even a little bit. Yeah, totally. See my laptop
Speaker 1: Finn has just fired up again. I told you I
Speaker 1: was having the issue, so there may be some background
Speaker 1: noise in this one. Everyone apologies. Brandy Burdan says Jessica
Speaker 1: Alba and Scarlett Johnson. I think it has to do
Speaker 1: with the fact that they both play in superhero movies. Okay,
Speaker 1: m you know Jessica Alba, she doesn't act so much
Speaker 1: anymore because she's busy running her fucking billion dollar empire.
Speaker 1: What what what a variety of empires? It chuck makeup
Speaker 1: or something? No, it's I think it's kids stuff she honest,
Speaker 1: that's right, honest brand like the soap and stuff. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean I think she sold honest if if I'm
Speaker 1: not mistaken for a boatload of money, um, and good
Speaker 1: for her. Like that's what you do. That's the whole
Speaker 1: thing is you. You build up this company and wait
Speaker 1: for like Procter and Gamble to come by. Can I
Speaker 1: backtrack really quick and say I apologize for being uh
Speaker 1: so stereotypical and saying what was it makeup or something?
Speaker 1: What a dick move? Gosh, well, it's fine, they're there.
Speaker 1: There are definitely some some famous women who have makeup
Speaker 1: lines or nothing. I give what you're saying. No, but
Speaker 1: don't beat it so hard on yourself. And now I'm
Speaker 1: obsessed with finding out how much she sold that business for.
Speaker 1: Maybe she still wants it. I don't know. Uh, I
Speaker 1: can't get back. I can't get sidetracked with honest stuff. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: we've got so much more ground to cover. Let me
Speaker 1: see our old pal. Vanessa Lopez says, Uh, Ron Livingstone
Speaker 1: and Kyle Chandler, Yeah, they look alike. I get that.
Speaker 1: Uh And m clark says east Left Fisher and Amy Adams.
Speaker 1: I don't get them confused because they're very distinct in
Speaker 1: my brain, but I could see how people would get
Speaker 1: them confused. You know, Oh, there's definitely some Ron Livingston
Speaker 1: Kyle Chandler. Yeah, you can always tell if there's a
Speaker 1: split screen. If there's a split screen of me and
Speaker 1: Kevin Smith out, there're gonna be pretty upset. People used
Speaker 1: to say I look like honestly, Chuck, it's a it's
Speaker 1: a chubby beard guy thing. I People used to say
Speaker 1: I looked like Zach Galifannakis when he was hot. And
Speaker 1: then back in high school, people used to say I
Speaker 1: looked like Kevin Smith. They'd call me lunchbox. It really
Speaker 1: hurt my feelings. Jack Black, did you ever get that?
Speaker 1: I got Jack Black a lot, But I really like
Speaker 1: Jack Black. Uh. He's so spry and I love his
Speaker 1: TikTok videos of him just like flopping around doing these
Speaker 1: crazy like TikTok dances. Boy, I got a lot when
Speaker 1: I posted this beardless Chuck thing I got. First of all,
Speaker 1: I don't even know how I got like eight thousand
Speaker 1: views and there's only like five or six thousand people
Speaker 1: on that page, so I must have gotten shared out.
Speaker 1: I got shared out a little bit, but um probably
Speaker 1: you know, obviously with stuff you should know people because
Speaker 1: no one else gives a ship. But uh, I got
Speaker 1: a lot of different people with the no beard, everyone
Speaker 1: from Nathan Lane to um. A lot of people, said
Speaker 1: the lead singer of the endance, which I was totally
Speaker 1: stoked about, sounds like that. A lot of that has
Speaker 1: to do with your glasses though, Yeah you got those
Speaker 1: kind of like thick, black, cool hipster glasses. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: got the ray Bands. Let me see Tyler Pace says
Speaker 1: Jason Schwartzman and Jason Biggs. Yeah, they're pretty distinct to me,
Speaker 1: but I get it. I would say more like David
Speaker 1: Swimmer and Jason Biggs. The Swims, the Swims, uh Alyssa
Speaker 1: Galmish says Ryan Gosling and Ryan Reynolds. They're pretty much
Speaker 1: one person to me. I prefer Gosling though, like both
Speaker 1: those guys, they should be in a buddy movie. I
Speaker 1: think it just has to do with the fact that
Speaker 1: they're both like obnoxiously handsome man, you know, and talented.
Speaker 1: They've got it all. Uh what what was the movie
Speaker 1: that was so fucking funny with Gosling and uh Russell
Speaker 1: Crowe that I think was kind of undersung the the
Speaker 1: other guys. Was that it? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, the nice guys.
Speaker 1: It was a nice guys. I didn't see that. No, dude,
Speaker 1: it's so funny Brian Gosling is Isn't it like a
Speaker 1: period one, like is it in the sixties or something? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I did see it was seventies. It was awesome. Oh man,
Speaker 1: he is so funny in that movie. Veronica Summerhill says
Speaker 1: Toby Maguire and Jake Jillenhall might as well be twins
Speaker 1: to me. Absolutely not. No, yeah, I don't see that
Speaker 1: one either. But again, these are all like personally people's brain. Uh,
Speaker 1: we'll just play a trick on them that may not
Speaker 1: make sense to the rest of us. Here's an interesting one,
Speaker 1: Chris Nap says, Hugh Hefner and Larry King all right, interesting,
Speaker 1: all right, this is very interesting. Jason Brown says. Jeremy
Speaker 1: and Jason London one was in Days to Confused and
Speaker 1: mall rats the other I think Seventh Heaven. I don't
Speaker 1: really know. Maybe they're the same person. Well, Jason, my friend,
Speaker 1: I want to introduce you to a little concept called twins.
Speaker 1: They're twins? You mean the movie like with with Arnold
Speaker 1: Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito. No, twins is just the biological
Speaker 1: life concept of of twins. Oh, I get, I get,
Speaker 1: and I get it now that they used They sort
Speaker 1: of turned that on its head with twins because Arnold
Speaker 1: Schwarzenegger a day Vito look nothing alike. I think it's
Speaker 1: funny that this guy didn't know that Jeremy and Jason
Speaker 1: London were twin brothers. Well, let's not shame him for it.
Speaker 1: But no, I'm not gonna shame it. I know, I know,
Speaker 1: of course not just I got a good one. Um.
Speaker 1: Bill Hicks and Alex Jones. Uh oh, interesting, It's it's
Speaker 1: pretty wild. There's like a conspiracy theory they're the same person. Well,
Speaker 1: which is hysterical because Bill Hicks was a liberal champion
Speaker 1: and Alex Jones is a Cretan toad. Bill Hicks Alex. Oh,
Speaker 1: so there's like they look alike. They really do there's
Speaker 1: even like images where people are like comparing their bone
Speaker 1: structure and stuff, and like, you know, it's a people
Speaker 1: have too much time on their hands, so they sure do,
Speaker 1: they sure do. Uh. Let me see. Here's a good one, Carrie.
Speaker 1: This is from Amanda Tassie, Carrie Mulligan and Michelle Williams. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's a good that that I agree with for sure,
Speaker 1: totally get that. I find them that there. That's another
Speaker 1: one of those pairs that are sort of interchangeable in
Speaker 1: my mind. Yeah. Jim Frank says Jason Patrick and Patrick Wilson.
Speaker 1: M hmm, okay to me them, the more famous someone is,
Speaker 1: the tougher it is to like Amanda Karen says, Mark
Speaker 1: Wahlberg and Matt Damon. Uh. And then Jeremy Carpenter commented
Speaker 1: that The Departed was so confusing because he gets those
Speaker 1: two people confused they were in the same movie. Hmm.
Speaker 1: I've seen this one before. Abby Kitts Miller says, Nicknolty
Speaker 1: and Gary Busey. Oh yeah, they both have kind of
Speaker 1: a blonde, wild eyed, unhingedness to them, you know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And I think that was aided by various mug shots
Speaker 1: over the years, because there's that one very famous Nick
Speaker 1: Nolty mug shot where he just looks batshit crazy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he looks like Gary Bucey. He does. He's very it's
Speaker 1: very busy. Gary Busey just looks like that all the time.
Speaker 1: Nick Nolty only looks like that in mug shots. Man,
Speaker 1: why don't we develop a podcast with Gary Busey That
Speaker 1: would be a hit. Didn't he have a crazy reality
Speaker 1: show for a while or something? Probably I feel like
Speaker 1: he did. But I mean, I think all you need
Speaker 1: to do is just sit him and down in front
Speaker 1: of a microphone and and let him go. I love it.
Speaker 1: I let your show. Yeah, here's the one that used
Speaker 1: to get me to when I was a kid, but
Speaker 1: now as an adult, um, not at all. Laura Limkey
Speaker 1: uh verdic no verderame for Deremy Verdin. Great name, Laura.
Speaker 1: She says, I used to get Glenn close and Meryl
Speaker 1: Streep confused, and that was definitely one for me growing up.
Speaker 1: They were sort of the same person until I realized
Speaker 1: they're both great actors. But Meryl Streep, you know, it's
Speaker 1: sort of the legend of the two. Well, they both
Speaker 1: sort of occupy a similar strong female powerhouse kind of space,
Speaker 1: you know, like in uh in movie history. They were
Speaker 1: both kind of like coming up at the same time
Speaker 1: and had similar types of like was it uh so
Speaker 1: Glenn Close is in terms of endearment? Yes? Right? No? No, no,
Speaker 1: terms of endearment? Was neither of them? Oh? Wait, what
Speaker 1: am I thinking that? I think Steel Magnolia has excuse me?
Speaker 1: And she wasn't in that either. Never mind, we're cutting
Speaker 1: all of this. We're cutting all of them. No, leave
Speaker 1: it all in. Glen Post was in The Big Chill?
Speaker 1: Is that what you were thinking? Now, I haven't Fatal Attraction.
Speaker 1: Glenn Close is in Fatal Attraction. That's probably her biggest,
Speaker 1: most famous role. It's Alex the bunny boiling murderous side piece.
Speaker 1: She boiled that she boiled a bunny and yeah, man,
Speaker 1: you didn't see was it? Was it a pet bunny?
Speaker 1: That's terrible. Yeah, that's a big spoiler, but it's such
Speaker 1: a part of the public consciousness. It didn't feel bad
Speaker 1: revealing it. Did I tell you? I went I went
Speaker 1: to an event with Glenn Close, Like I was like
Speaker 1: feet for feet from her. Yeah, because she was in
Speaker 1: that podcast that my buddy John Cameron Mitchell I can
Speaker 1: I I'm not flexing when I say that we were
Speaker 1: talking stuff. Um, but he uh had her in his
Speaker 1: podcast anthem Homunculous, which is fantastic on the Luminary Network
Speaker 1: if you haven't heard it. It's a psychedelic head trip.
Speaker 1: It's just fantastic with music and everything. And she played
Speaker 1: a character in that. And he did this marathon listening
Speaker 1: party at the i F Center, New York, and Glenn
Speaker 1: Close came and did a little speech and brought her
Speaker 1: dog pipe and she seemed very nice. I didn't like,
Speaker 1: you know, say hello, Mrs Close, thank you so much
Speaker 1: for all your contributions to American cinema. I loved you.
Speaker 1: And Steel Magnolia's Yes, you were so good and you
Speaker 1: were so good and uh, what was the other one?
Speaker 1: Like the other one that I was wrong about in
Speaker 1: terms of terms DeArment? She like, nope, still no, still
Speaker 1: not me. Thank you, thank you for playing. Let me
Speaker 1: see this is when I used to get confused a
Speaker 1: little bit. Lauren Duke says, Cure Knightly and Natalie Portman, Uh,
Speaker 1: they're they're they're similar. I think a lot of Paxton
Speaker 1: im Pullman's James ds, says Amy Adams and Rachel McAdams.
Speaker 1: I don't see that one so much. Must just be
Speaker 1: the atoms thing that's throwing them, you know. Yeah, oh boy,
Speaker 1: this is a good one because they really do look
Speaker 1: a lot alike. Victoria Reid says Jamie Pressley and Margot
Speaker 1: Robi or Robbie. Yeah, yeah, I can see that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they look a lot alike. They should play sisters. All right,
Speaker 1: we're gonna finish up here with our old pal Robert Paulson.
Speaker 1: I hope you're hanging in there out in l a buddy.
Speaker 1: Emma Watson and Emily Watson, just their names. I just
Speaker 1: want to call them each other. I get that too, totally. Um.
Speaker 1: All right, so we are going to move on to
Speaker 1: another post. And this is from the Crushers page. This
Speaker 1: is from one of our oldest of pals, Patrick Gorman,
Speaker 1: and he always posts a lot of fun stuff on
Speaker 1: the Crushers page. And this is very simple, and I
Speaker 1: can't believe I've never asked this, but what is the
Speaker 1: movie that made you realize I love movies? Very simple? No,
Speaker 1: just I don't know if you have one. Do you
Speaker 1: remember your first one? It's probably the first movie I
Speaker 1: ever saw, it would have been a little later for me,
Speaker 1: Like I definitely loved liked movies and enjoyed movies, but like,
Speaker 1: as far as what really got me into digging a
Speaker 1: little deeper and getting into directors and cinematographers and stuff,
Speaker 1: it would have been a movie like Platoon maybe, or
Speaker 1: I went through you know a lot of those movies.
Speaker 1: We talked about the very Influential Year, which the year
Speaker 1: itself escapes me, but Fight Club and American Beauty were
Speaker 1: too where did Yeah, I was like, Okay, this David
Speaker 1: Fincher character has got something going on, and I looked
Speaker 1: into all of his work and started researching all of
Speaker 1: his influences. This thing away for music. For me, it
Speaker 1: was Smashing Pumpkins because they had really interesting bands that
Speaker 1: influenced them. So because of them, I got into like
Speaker 1: Black Sabbath, Enjoy Division, and my Bloody Valcein. So that's
Speaker 1: sort of how I think of it. You know, I'm
Speaker 1: doing that, uh that silly Facebook thing where you name
Speaker 1: your ten most influential albums, and that has been a
Speaker 1: lot of fun because it's uh, I usually don't do
Speaker 1: that stuff, but this, uh, there was something about influential
Speaker 1: as opposed to favorite. That really intrigued me because you
Speaker 1: really got to put a lot of thought into what
Speaker 1: bands do you simply love the record and what band's
Speaker 1: really kind of altered your the way you look at
Speaker 1: music or maybe introduce you to a genre you had
Speaker 1: never heard before. And it was really interesting to kind
Speaker 1: of go back through I'm almost done with it now,
Speaker 1: but to kind of look at these touchstones through my
Speaker 1: life of music that influenced me. It's a lot of fun.
Speaker 1: Have you Has anyone nominated you for that? And all? No,
Speaker 1: please do? I would do that all day long. I
Speaker 1: just haven't been checking Facebook very much. I need to
Speaker 1: put notifications back on because I've been like, yeah, mainly
Speaker 1: using Instagram, but I would love to do something like that.
Speaker 1: I'll turn notifications on, all right. So what movies? What
Speaker 1: movie made you realize you love movies? One of our
Speaker 1: oldest friends, Jane Jenneb who by the way, she won
Speaker 1: the garden competition, we I posted a picture of my
Speaker 1: backyard and garden because you know, we've been working hard
Speaker 1: on it, and I was like, I know a lot
Speaker 1: of you guys have been working hard to during quarantine.
Speaker 1: So a lot of people posted Pictures and Jayne's is
Speaker 1: off the hook. It is so damn lovely, so a
Speaker 1: way to go, Jane, She says, Raiders of the Lost
Speaker 1: Dark Um that was right up there for me too.
Speaker 1: I think Raiders in Et were those early movies for
Speaker 1: me that that sort of magical, and of course Star
Speaker 1: Wars that really took me to a place where I
Speaker 1: was like, man, this is gonna be watching movies for
Speaker 1: the rest of my life. Uh. Jenny Livett says Close
Speaker 1: Encounters of the Third Kind totally the Danger Oven. By
Speaker 1: the way, Gail Koont's revealed what The Danger Oven means
Speaker 1: via email. I can't tell you, guys, but it's a
Speaker 1: great story, she says. This is spinal tap made her
Speaker 1: realize she loved movies. That's a good one. The author
Speaker 1: of this thought experiment, Patrick Gorman says, Saving Private Ryan
Speaker 1: and Titanic, all right, so that came on a little later,
Speaker 1: unless he's younger than I thought. Heidi Lawman says, Jewel
Speaker 1: of the Nile Man that was great. That Romancing the Stone,
Speaker 1: big big movies for me as a kid. Which one
Speaker 1: came first? Romancing the Stone was first, That's what I thought.
Speaker 1: And Juel den I was the uh slightly lesser sequel,
Speaker 1: not not quite as good, but still fun. Jason Roberts
Speaker 1: says Tarantino movies period, they made me feel like I
Speaker 1: was at least as cool as his characters for simply
Speaker 1: having seen the movie. Okay, that was back in those
Speaker 1: days where it's like I was so ignorant about you know,
Speaker 1: culture and stuff that I was like this pulp fiction man,
Speaker 1: no one else has heard of it. I'm the only one.
Speaker 1: It's like just for me. It's kind of like I
Speaker 1: remember like going to see Ween in concert to Coca
Speaker 1: Cola Roxy and I got there really early and there
Speaker 1: was like nobody there, and I was like, you guys,
Speaker 1: I'm like the one. It's gonna be for me. I
Speaker 1: figured it out. I have my finger on the pulse,
Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, that's a special thing though. That has
Speaker 1: to do with a certain age and discovering things. Because
Speaker 1: I said the very same thing and one of my
Speaker 1: music albums posts because I did a two for one day,
Speaker 1: I did r MS Life Life Search pageant and you
Speaker 1: two's Unforgettable Fire as a two for. And when I
Speaker 1: was first getting into music when I was a kid,
Speaker 1: it was American top forty and MTV and pop hits
Speaker 1: and classic rock radio which was just always on and
Speaker 1: still is on the radio. But when I first discovered
Speaker 1: album MAYDI eight which is our great uh college radio
Speaker 1: station here in Atlanta for Georgia State University, eight point
Speaker 1: five left of the dial. When I discovered that radio station,
Speaker 1: when I was like thirteen and fourteen and fifteen, uh
Speaker 1: and heard R E. M and you two for the
Speaker 1: first time, I thought, I was like, this is a secret.
Speaker 1: No one knows that no, no one knows about these guys.
Speaker 1: And you would only tell friends that you thought would
Speaker 1: get it. You wouldn't broadcast it too loudly. It's a
Speaker 1: pretty special thing. Of course, every you know, there were
Speaker 1: other people listening to them, But that's that kind of
Speaker 1: connection that a band or a movie can have with
Speaker 1: a young It of like, this is for you. It's
Speaker 1: pretty special. Oh totally agree. Let me see here, Josh
Speaker 1: Toko says watching Superman catch Lois Lane and the Helicopter
Speaker 1: and Superman the movie as a kid and then as
Speaker 1: an adult, still getting chills every single time. I always
Speaker 1: thought Superman was kind of a dick, the way he
Speaker 1: like just drops her out of the window, you know,
Speaker 1: and then like catches there. It's like he's sort of
Speaker 1: like talking. Yeah, it's like pulling the girls hair on
Speaker 1: the playground a little bit like her. Let me see
Speaker 1: Tyler burns his dead posts Society. Yeah, that was pretty
Speaker 1: pretty monumental movie for me too, as was stand By Me.
Speaker 1: And that comes from Jodi Sells queen big big movie
Speaker 1: American beauty. That comes from old friend Megan Carol. Uh.
Speaker 1: Scott Marvel says die Hard made him love movies. That's
Speaker 1: certainly a great crash course and awesome filmmaking. Did you
Speaker 1: see die Hard with a Vengeance? Chuck? It was from
Speaker 1: all I thought die Hard with a Vengeance really kicked ass.
Speaker 1: Like Sam Jackson. Yeah, that was Sam Jackson. Jeremy Irons
Speaker 1: is a total totally evil villain, mad bomber guy. You know.
Speaker 1: I thought that really held up and in many ways,
Speaker 1: I mean, it's hard to say it's better than the
Speaker 1: second one is forgettable to me. With the Vengeance really
Speaker 1: stuck out in my mind. I think I saw in
Speaker 1: the theaters like a couple of times when it came out. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was really good. It had a clever concept with
Speaker 1: the whole sort of scavenger hunt around New York and
Speaker 1: the ticking clock, and I thought it was really really good.
Speaker 1: I didn't actually I said I saw him odd, did
Speaker 1: not see that last one with with the kid when
Speaker 1: it when his son came on the scene. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: isn't Bruce not in that one? Like at all? No?
Speaker 1: I mean he's in it pretty sure, Like I didn't.
Speaker 1: I didn't see it, But maybe he wasn't in it
Speaker 1: as much? Was he not in it that much? I
Speaker 1: I And for some reason in my mind, I think
Speaker 1: that he wasn't in it, but he maybe was like
Speaker 1: just sort of the elder statesman, die hard guy, sort
Speaker 1: of passing the baton. But I could be wrong. I
Speaker 1: got you, Matt Yos, says the Royal tannin Bombs Magical
Speaker 1: Magical Movie. I'm really worried this new West Anderson movie
Speaker 1: is going to be delayed now, No, everything's delayed. I'm
Speaker 1: so upset. Why uh do you don't think it was
Speaker 1: done already? Then they released the trailer. It seems like
Speaker 1: it was pretty fully formed, seeming or the very latest shot.
Speaker 1: And then but they're they're delaying stuff anyway because we
Speaker 1: can go to the theaters. That's right. I wonder how
Speaker 1: this experiment has been working out at with it because
Speaker 1: they haven't been doing many more of them. I've noticed,
Speaker 1: like they did like Trolls. Yeah, and they did like
Speaker 1: Emma and then that movie The Hunt, and I haven't
Speaker 1: really seen any other Invisible Man to um or whatever
Speaker 1: the version of that was called the new one with
Speaker 1: Peggy for Madman. Uh, I don't know. I mean you
Speaker 1: did see all the ruckass called with AMC Theaters and Universal, right, yeah,
Speaker 1: of course. I mean you know, like there's also a
Speaker 1: whole situation where um they're they're kind of having to
Speaker 1: see how much money they're going to make off of this,
Speaker 1: and I just sort of feel like, because there haven't
Speaker 1: been more of them, like it's not doing well, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like because even troll It Trolls
Speaker 1: did well. Oh yeah, yeah, that's why Universal came out
Speaker 1: and was like, hey, this may be the way forward. See,
Speaker 1: I didn't hear that news. I and I just noticed that,
Speaker 1: like I would have thought there would like Wonder Woman
Speaker 1: for example, that was just about to come out, and
Speaker 1: like I would have thought maybe they would have dropped
Speaker 1: it in the O D. But you know, they haven't
Speaker 1: done that yet. I just wonder if they're just hedging
Speaker 1: their bets and waiting to see because oh, I know
Speaker 1: you're talking about I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to
Speaker 1: to gloss over what you said. Is this you're talking
Speaker 1: about the theaters that like, did you reduced pricing? Uh? There.
Speaker 1: So Universal came out after the success of Trolls and said,
Speaker 1: the CEO whatever made this statement of kind of like, hey,
Speaker 1: even when things get back to normal, we might do
Speaker 1: some of this like in theaters and at home. And
Speaker 1: the whole way theaters work is that windowing period. And
Speaker 1: so a MC said, you know what, We're not gonna
Speaker 1: show any more Universal movies in our theaters. And then
Speaker 1: Regal came out and said, you know, we're not going
Speaker 1: to show any more Universal movies in our theaters because
Speaker 1: you're breaking a a pact that's been in place since
Speaker 1: the beginning of film, which is that we get a
Speaker 1: window to show these things and then it goes out
Speaker 1: on video on demand or DVD or whatever. So it is,
Speaker 1: do you think there's obviously there has to be to
Speaker 1: some degree like a formal agreement with some sort of
Speaker 1: union or some sort of like you know, group that
Speaker 1: represents all of the theaters or I think there's an
Speaker 1: agreement in place, but I don't know now that you
Speaker 1: mentioned that, because they couldn't just Willy narally break that.
Speaker 1: It may have just been like, yeah, like, hey, this
Speaker 1: is just how it works, because it's always been yeah, like,
Speaker 1: we'll go out of business as a movie theater if
Speaker 1: you start doing this, or as a movie chain. And
Speaker 1: then there's people saying, like, AMC even letting your chain
Speaker 1: go downhill for years with shitty screenings and poorly behaved
Speaker 1: patrons and high price snacks. So a lot of people
Speaker 1: are welcoming this. I'm someone who thinks that you've got
Speaker 1: to keep theaters alive. Man, It's like, there's nothing like
Speaker 1: that experience. I I agree with you for certain movies,
Speaker 1: for sure, but then there are some that I would
Speaker 1: be much more likely to just casually check out on demand,
Speaker 1: for sure, than if you know that. I would never
Speaker 1: go to the theaters to see you know, Emma, for example,
Speaker 1: but on demand I might check it out. You know.
Speaker 1: So I agree with you, but I almost wonder if
Speaker 1: that means theaters are going to become more niche and
Speaker 1: it's going to be more of like that Alamo Drafthouse
Speaker 1: or like you know, Nighthawk or like those kind of
Speaker 1: more interesting, very curated, and the experience is very geared
Speaker 1: towards people who love going to the center the movie. Yeah. Man,
Speaker 1: I read a really interesting, super long deep dive article
Speaker 1: on what they think the future of entertainment is going
Speaker 1: to look like. And I can't remember where it was.
Speaker 1: I'll see if I can find it and post it.
Speaker 1: But someone wrote a really well thought out its idea
Speaker 1: of what this might look like. And basically it's like,
Speaker 1: what's going to happen is like Amazon is going to
Speaker 1: swoop in and buy Regal and a MC, let's say,
Speaker 1: and movie theaters are not going to be just movie
Speaker 1: theaters anymore. It's going to be an entertainment complex where
Speaker 1: you can go pick up your Amazon package and you
Speaker 1: can go watch your favorite Amazon thing on a big
Speaker 1: screen if you want TV show, or you can watch
Speaker 1: a movie much more like individually geared. And then it
Speaker 1: had all this other stuff that was um this entertainment
Speaker 1: complex as well, all owned by Amazon of course, and
Speaker 1: I could see it going in that direction absolutely. I mean,
Speaker 1: if you really think about a movie theaters are kind
Speaker 1: of a one trick pony and considering how expensive real
Speaker 1: estate is, probably diversifying isn't like the worst idea in
Speaker 1: the world, um or making it more Niche like the
Speaker 1: Alamo situation where you go there because you know, no
Speaker 1: one's allowed to behave badly. People will get kicked out
Speaker 1: if they talk, you know, like they have really good
Speaker 1: food and beverages and like that. The whole system is
Speaker 1: reped towards like a really lovely experience, whereas, like you said,
Speaker 1: amc Chains, it's a ship show and you never know
Speaker 1: what you're gonna get, and it's like a total crap
Speaker 1: shoot as to whether you're gonna have a good time
Speaker 1: or just be piste off and feel like you've wasted
Speaker 1: your money. Yeah, here it is. It's um. It's a
Speaker 1: really great article. It's called Prepare for the Death and
Speaker 1: Rebirth of Hollywood on Medium dot com by Richard Jaynes.
Speaker 1: And uh, it's it's an interesting read, man. I mean,
Speaker 1: this is all this one guy's opinion on what do
Speaker 1: you think might happen? Um. But he makes a pretty
Speaker 1: good case. And you know, the Amazon's I think look
Speaker 1: for uh, and he saw about Disney as the other one,
Speaker 1: like Amazon and Disney might just buy up all these
Speaker 1: theater chains and make these big entertainment complexes and like
Speaker 1: special screenings for prime members. Uh, they'll mark it directly
Speaker 1: to audiences about their own platforms. So there's just a
Speaker 1: lot of synergy. I think that a company like Amazon
Speaker 1: or Disney could could do with their like retail legs,
Speaker 1: and Disney would have Disney stores of course, all in there.
Speaker 1: And uh, pretty interesting stuff. Oh e sports, they were
Speaker 1: talking about incorporating sports because that's such a huge thing.
Speaker 1: Cafeterias and restaurants, gamers, gamer zones. Very interesting stuff now
Speaker 1: for sure. So I think that's enough on the Uh,
Speaker 1: we got pretty much sidetracks, but I wanted to see
Speaker 1: before we wrap what you've been streaming if there's been
Speaker 1: anything new on your list? Oh so much? Um, well,
Speaker 1: not so much, but a decent amount. And I finished
Speaker 1: better call saul in in real time. I've just been
Speaker 1: buying him an episode at a time on on Amazon. Um,
Speaker 1: let's see what have I really been enjoying. Oh yeah, this.
Speaker 1: There's this new show on Netflix called The Midnight Gospel.
Speaker 1: It's a very like psychedelic cartoon um where it's the
Speaker 1: creator of Adventure Time, Pendleton Ward, who is just a
Speaker 1: you know, incredible mind. Um. I always thought Adventure Time
Speaker 1: was one of the coolest kind of like adult kids
Speaker 1: cartoons that really kind of dipped its toes into sort
Speaker 1: of psychedelia and that kind of yellow submarine, you know,
Speaker 1: the point kind of animation style from the sixties, And
Speaker 1: with the Midnight Gospel, he takes that and just pushes
Speaker 1: it into the stratosphere and it's super adult and it's
Speaker 1: a collaboration between him and Duncan Trustle incredible weird, weird,
Speaker 1: oh comic bordering on like a philosopher poet kind of guy,
Speaker 1: and it's just great. I don't know how el's to
Speaker 1: describe it. It's really hard to because there's so much
Speaker 1: going on in the background. It takes excerpts from Trussell's
Speaker 1: Duncan Trust All Family Our podcast and and kind of
Speaker 1: animates to it. But it's all these discussions of like
Speaker 1: Buddhism and and drugs and addiction and just like life
Speaker 1: and uh death and just anything you can think of,
Speaker 1: and it's really um, it's it's a lot, but it's
Speaker 1: it's wonderful. I highly recommend second out at least a
Speaker 1: couple episodes and give it a minute because the first
Speaker 1: two might not grab you fully, but just get their
Speaker 1: short and just just kind of give it, give it
Speaker 1: a little bit of your attention. I think you'll feel
Speaker 1: well rewarded for it. Yeah. I gotta check that out, um.
Speaker 1: Frequent guests Dan Bush was talking about how much he
Speaker 1: loved that on his Facebook page, and uh so to
Speaker 1: get a recommendation from both you and Dan means that
Speaker 1: it's awesome. I've been working with Dan on a project lovely. Yeah. Yeah, Yeah,
Speaker 1: Dan's awesome. Yeah. Cool, dude. I can't wait to get
Speaker 1: him back. I wish he had a home recording deal.
Speaker 1: I'll love to get him back in here, or maybe
Speaker 1: he does. I'm gonna check in with him. Alright. No,
Speaker 1: well that's it. We're only gonna do one today. I
Speaker 1: appreciate you coming on and making the time. Good to
Speaker 1: see you as always, and I'm taking we're we're doing
Speaker 1: this because I'm taking next week off, dude. I'm recording
Speaker 1: a little bit extra and I'm not recording anything next week,
