<v Speaker 2>And today's guest comedian Dane Simpson, all below.

0:00:17.560 --> 0:00:18.920
<v Speaker 3>I want to stay here with you.

0:00:28.600 --> 0:00:37.960
<v Speaker 1>The jobber, my hat, snake shucked my hail.

0:00:39.159 --> 0:00:43.279
<v Speaker 4>They couldn't happening right, So you ain't seen nothing yet.

0:00:52.159 --> 0:00:53.680
<v Speaker 2>This is an episode I've been waiting to do for

0:00:53.840 --> 0:00:56.000
<v Speaker 2>a little while now one because of the guests we

0:00:56.080 --> 0:00:57.120
<v Speaker 2>have on Dane Simpson.

0:00:57.960 --> 0:00:58.800
<v Speaker 1>I love this bloke.

0:00:58.960 --> 0:01:02.240
<v Speaker 2>He's a much more around the Australian comedy scene with

0:01:02.280 --> 0:01:07.400
<v Speaker 2>both audiences and comedians alike. First onto the scene ten

0:01:07.480 --> 0:01:10.840
<v Speaker 2>years ago or so, I think did he win the

0:01:10.959 --> 0:01:15.160
<v Speaker 2>Deadly Awards or Deadly Funny I should say, because he

0:01:15.280 --> 0:01:18.560
<v Speaker 2>is exactly that. He is deadly funny, both just hanging

0:01:18.600 --> 0:01:22.160
<v Speaker 2>out or watching him on stage. I did some gigs

0:01:22.200 --> 0:01:25.360
<v Speaker 2>with him in Wogga Wogga, where he's from. He's basically

0:01:25.440 --> 0:01:26.240
<v Speaker 2>the king of Wagga.

0:01:26.480 --> 0:01:29.440
<v Speaker 1>There's a mural of him which is Dane took me

0:01:29.520 --> 0:01:32.440
<v Speaker 1>by on the way to the airport, just quietly. We

0:01:32.600 --> 0:01:35.400
<v Speaker 1>got a photo I'll post it. Actually it was a

0:01:35.480 --> 0:01:36.039
<v Speaker 1>lot of funny.

0:01:36.520 --> 0:01:38.240
<v Speaker 2>He's much loved up there, and so he should be

0:01:38.280 --> 0:01:41.920
<v Speaker 2>because he's creating work for locals, for comedians and also

0:01:42.040 --> 0:01:46.440
<v Speaker 2>bringing comedians from the cities into Wogga to perform, and

0:01:46.840 --> 0:01:49.160
<v Speaker 2>if somebody like Dane's not doing that, then it may

0:01:49.240 --> 0:01:49.720
<v Speaker 2>not happened.

0:01:49.760 --> 0:01:53.400
<v Speaker 1>So he's a great man. For those who don't know Dane,

0:01:53.680 --> 0:01:54.280
<v Speaker 1>where have you been?

0:01:54.440 --> 0:01:57.640
<v Speaker 2>You would have seen him on various Melbourne International Comedy

0:01:57.680 --> 0:02:00.720
<v Speaker 2>Festival galas. He did The Amazing Race, the first celebrity

0:02:00.800 --> 0:02:04.120
<v Speaker 2>edition with his dad. Sadly they got knocked out in

0:02:04.240 --> 0:02:07.680
<v Speaker 2>the first leg, but it wasn't in India, which was

0:02:07.720 --> 0:02:13.000
<v Speaker 2>a bloody hot I've heard hellish reports about how hard

0:02:13.080 --> 0:02:16.480
<v Speaker 2>that was compared to the series I did. But yeah,

0:02:16.880 --> 0:02:18.480
<v Speaker 2>you would have seen him there. He would have seen

0:02:18.560 --> 0:02:22.080
<v Speaker 2>him on have you been paying attention? On Get Kraken.

0:02:22.400 --> 0:02:26.760
<v Speaker 2>He's kind of everywhere and he's funny, he's smart and

0:02:27.120 --> 0:02:29.440
<v Speaker 2>we got chatting when we're in Wagga about what movies

0:02:29.480 --> 0:02:31.520
<v Speaker 2>he hadn't seen, and he mentioned planes, trains and autobils.

0:02:31.520 --> 0:02:34.320
<v Speaker 2>We've already done that, but then he mentioned National Lampion's vacation.

0:02:34.480 --> 0:02:38.040
<v Speaker 2>I thought, oh, hang on, hang on, Oh, we need to.

0:02:38.000 --> 0:02:38.480
<v Speaker 1>Get into this.

0:02:39.000 --> 0:02:42.760
<v Speaker 2>Dane is, Like I said, it's funny, he's smart, he's vibrant,

0:02:42.960 --> 0:02:45.160
<v Speaker 2>and I'm stoked to be hanging with him today.

0:02:50.800 --> 0:02:54.760
<v Speaker 5>Goody, I'm Dave Simpson. My three favorite films are The

0:02:54.880 --> 0:03:02.400
<v Speaker 5>Dark Knight and Why So Serious Shaw Shark Redemption, Get

0:03:02.480 --> 0:03:10.440
<v Speaker 5>Busy Living, You get busy, diet and dread and wondering

0:03:10.480 --> 0:03:11.639
<v Speaker 5>when you'd remember you left.

0:03:11.520 --> 0:03:14.560
<v Speaker 3>Your helmet behind, Sir, A helmet can interfere with my

0:03:14.600 --> 0:03:15.520
<v Speaker 3>psychic abilities.

0:03:17.280 --> 0:03:19.120
<v Speaker 4>I think a bullet mightn't feel with the more.

0:03:20.280 --> 0:03:24.560
<v Speaker 5>Up until last night, I have never seen National Lampoon's

0:03:24.639 --> 0:03:32.360
<v Speaker 5>Vacation so weet.

0:03:47.120 --> 0:03:48.600
<v Speaker 1>Oh yes all they wrote.

0:03:48.640 --> 0:03:51.960
<v Speaker 2>Okay, It's nineteen eighty three and Chevy Chase's Clark w

0:03:52.240 --> 0:03:55.320
<v Speaker 2>Griswold gets two days off a year, and he's hell

0:03:55.440 --> 0:03:58.920
<v Speaker 2>bent on giving his family a dream of vacation, a

0:03:59.040 --> 0:04:02.360
<v Speaker 2>pilgrimage of sorts to visit fun Park, a wally world

0:04:02.680 --> 0:04:05.560
<v Speaker 2>where the star of their favorite TV show, Marty Moose,

0:04:05.800 --> 0:04:09.240
<v Speaker 2>will be waiting for them. But things get off to

0:04:09.320 --> 0:04:12.760
<v Speaker 2>a shaggy start when Clark takes his teenage son, Rusty

0:04:13.000 --> 0:04:15.520
<v Speaker 2>Anthony Michael Hall to pick their new car up from

0:04:15.520 --> 0:04:19.599
<v Speaker 2>a shady car salesman played hilariously by the great Eugene Levy.

0:04:20.080 --> 0:04:23.320
<v Speaker 2>From there, the speed bumps and detours never really stop,

0:04:23.600 --> 0:04:27.440
<v Speaker 2>as Clark's wife Allan, the fantastic Beverly DeAngelo, and daughter

0:04:27.640 --> 0:04:31.600
<v Speaker 2>Audrey Dana Baron begin to lose patience and excitement for

0:04:31.760 --> 0:04:36.200
<v Speaker 2>the Griswold's Grand American adventure. But Clark will be danned

0:04:36.200 --> 0:04:38.120
<v Speaker 2>if he's not going to make this the best damn

0:04:38.240 --> 0:04:41.880
<v Speaker 2>holiday ever, no matter how many people or pets get

0:04:42.000 --> 0:04:45.000
<v Speaker 2>killed along the way. From a script by legend John

0:04:45.080 --> 0:04:48.960
<v Speaker 2>Hughes directed by the equally legendary Harold Ramis, National Lampoon's

0:04:49.040 --> 0:04:52.760
<v Speaker 2>Vacation is undoubtedly a classic, spawning a number of sequels

0:04:52.960 --> 0:04:55.960
<v Speaker 2>and reboots of varying quality over the years. But no

0:04:56.080 --> 0:04:58.520
<v Speaker 2>matter what you thought of Vegas Vacation or the end

0:04:58.800 --> 0:05:02.400
<v Speaker 2>Ed Helms reboot or the weird Cousin Eddie thing, National

0:05:02.520 --> 0:05:06.320
<v Speaker 2>Lampoon's Vacation remains the og and the goat for holiday

0:05:06.880 --> 0:05:10.760
<v Speaker 2>road movies. Dane Simpson, have you ever eaten a sandwich?

0:05:10.800 --> 0:05:11.440
<v Speaker 2>It's been pissed on?

0:05:12.120 --> 0:05:17.560
<v Speaker 5>It's great, great scene in the movie. By the way,

0:05:18.520 --> 0:05:21.440
<v Speaker 5>I reckon, I've eaten some horrible sandwiches in my day,

0:05:21.640 --> 0:05:24.480
<v Speaker 5>Like you know that I've gotten that you put the

0:05:24.520 --> 0:05:30.120
<v Speaker 5>beetroot on too early, you know, Oh yes sometimes, And

0:05:30.800 --> 0:05:33.080
<v Speaker 5>I've made a honey sandwich for myself and taken it

0:05:33.160 --> 0:05:38.520
<v Speaker 5>to school, which is beetrig esque. A mistake. Yeah, it's

0:05:38.800 --> 0:05:41.720
<v Speaker 5>almost like it makes its own little honeycomb and inside

0:05:41.760 --> 0:05:47.280
<v Speaker 5>the bread during the up until lunch. Not a sandwich

0:05:47.320 --> 0:05:48.000
<v Speaker 5>that's been pissed on.

0:05:49.160 --> 0:05:49.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm glad.

0:05:49.880 --> 0:05:52.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm glad that we won't change that today. But thanks

0:05:52.120 --> 0:05:55.000
<v Speaker 2>so much mate for joining me. I've been wanting to

0:05:55.040 --> 0:05:57.200
<v Speaker 2>get you on for a long time. I was up

0:05:57.240 --> 0:06:00.880
<v Speaker 2>in a wagga doing your great comedy gigs that you

0:06:00.920 --> 0:06:03.560
<v Speaker 2>were running. You're doing a great job up there in Wagga,

0:06:04.279 --> 0:06:07.040
<v Speaker 2>and Jesus, we had some fun we those gigs, and

0:06:07.200 --> 0:06:10.400
<v Speaker 2>we got chatting and we decided that I found out

0:06:10.440 --> 0:06:12.520
<v Speaker 2>that you had never seen National Lampion's Vacation, and my

0:06:12.680 --> 0:06:15.280
<v Speaker 2>ears just pricked. This is a movie I've seen many

0:06:15.640 --> 0:06:17.960
<v Speaker 2>many times. This is like, I don't think I saw

0:06:18.000 --> 0:06:19.320
<v Speaker 2>it in the cinemas. I think it came to me

0:06:19.400 --> 0:06:23.440
<v Speaker 2>on VHS. But I've seen it so many times.

0:06:24.080 --> 0:06:26.240
<v Speaker 5>You go back and you watch it constantly.

0:06:26.560 --> 0:06:29.120
<v Speaker 1>Oh, like I actually watched it just recently.

0:06:29.200 --> 0:06:31.560
<v Speaker 2>Like it's one of those movies that we talked about

0:06:31.560 --> 0:06:33.840
<v Speaker 2>a lot on this show where if it's on, you

0:06:33.960 --> 0:06:35.640
<v Speaker 2>just sitting down and watching the rest of it, you know,

0:06:36.160 --> 0:06:38.160
<v Speaker 2>or you know, I've seen it so many times, you've

0:06:38.160 --> 0:06:40.440
<v Speaker 2>probably I probably don't even need to watch all of it.

0:06:40.680 --> 0:06:42.880
<v Speaker 2>I'll watch for as long as I can, and or

0:06:43.360 --> 0:06:46.040
<v Speaker 2>you know, I can't, I can't switch immediately, and I

0:06:46.160 --> 0:06:47.840
<v Speaker 2>need to watch some of it at least, you know,

0:06:48.440 --> 0:06:49.599
<v Speaker 2>it is a.

0:06:49.640 --> 0:06:52.800
<v Speaker 5>Movie that almost has broken up into bits. What what

0:06:52.880 --> 0:06:54.680
<v Speaker 5>are you What do you reckon about the sequels? Do

0:06:54.800 --> 0:06:57.280
<v Speaker 5>you watch number one the most? Or do you reckon

0:06:57.440 --> 0:06:59.239
<v Speaker 5>there was sequels?

0:06:59.440 --> 0:07:04.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, absolutely, there's a whole bunch of them. This is

0:07:05.120 --> 0:07:08.240
<v Speaker 2>certainly the best European vacation. I quite I quite like

0:07:09.040 --> 0:07:10.840
<v Speaker 2>I've got a bit of a spot for that. Chris

0:07:10.880 --> 0:07:13.040
<v Speaker 2>is a vacation I think goes all right. I think

0:07:13.080 --> 0:07:16.360
<v Speaker 2>it's actually aged pretty good over time as far as, yeah,

0:07:16.760 --> 0:07:20.320
<v Speaker 2>my enjoyment of it, and then Vegas vacation not great.

0:07:20.360 --> 0:07:24.239
<v Speaker 1>And there's a few other ones. Cousin Eddie, which is lame.

0:07:24.960 --> 0:07:29.080
<v Speaker 2>The ed Helm's Christine Applegate reboot they did was actually Okay,

0:07:29.760 --> 0:07:31.640
<v Speaker 2>I thought they did a pretty good job. Ed Helms

0:07:31.720 --> 0:07:36.440
<v Speaker 2>plays an older rusty who is taking his family on holiday,

0:07:36.520 --> 0:07:39.080
<v Speaker 2>and which I think is a nice kind of angle

0:07:39.440 --> 0:07:39.640
<v Speaker 2>on it.

0:07:39.920 --> 0:07:42.080
<v Speaker 1>But what did you know before? I before?

0:07:42.160 --> 0:07:43.680
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to know if you'd like even like

0:07:43.760 --> 0:07:45.880
<v Speaker 2>the film just yet because I want to talk about

0:07:45.880 --> 0:07:49.120
<v Speaker 2>your three favorite films. But what did you know of

0:07:49.640 --> 0:07:50.800
<v Speaker 2>National Lampoon's Vacation.

0:07:52.040 --> 0:07:55.520
<v Speaker 5>I knew that Chevy Chase was in it was that

0:07:55.720 --> 0:07:59.840
<v Speaker 5>was it. That was the absolute maximum of me knowing

0:08:00.120 --> 0:08:03.760
<v Speaker 5>anything about this movie. And I thought that it was

0:08:03.840 --> 0:08:06.440
<v Speaker 5>a Christmas movie. So I didn't know that the sequel

0:08:06.880 --> 0:08:10.080
<v Speaker 5>was a Christmas movie. I'm assuming it's part two.

0:08:10.520 --> 0:08:14.320
<v Speaker 2>That's part three, It's part three, okay, so yeah, European

0:08:14.440 --> 0:08:17.720
<v Speaker 2>Vacation is the next one, right, I just by what

0:08:17.880 --> 0:08:18.760
<v Speaker 2>you I.

0:08:19.160 --> 0:08:21.520
<v Speaker 5>Was literally going through my brat like beause I heard

0:08:21.560 --> 0:08:23.120
<v Speaker 5>about it and then I was like, oh so this.

0:08:23.440 --> 0:08:24.920
<v Speaker 5>I didn't know that there was a Vegas one. You

0:08:26.280 --> 0:08:28.600
<v Speaker 5>hit me with the left field there, clever girl.

0:08:30.000 --> 0:08:32.160
<v Speaker 2>Most people forget there's a Vegas one. I think I

0:08:32.320 --> 0:08:35.240
<v Speaker 2>saw it once and night. I don't need to see

0:08:35.240 --> 0:08:40.079
<v Speaker 2>it again. But yeah, this is there's a lot to

0:08:40.120 --> 0:08:42.000
<v Speaker 2>talk about with vacation. I do want to get into it,

0:08:42.000 --> 0:08:45.199
<v Speaker 2>but let's talk about your three favorite films, starting with

0:08:45.360 --> 0:08:47.400
<v Speaker 2>the classic. It's come up quite a bit in this podcast,

0:08:47.720 --> 0:08:50.800
<v Speaker 2>The Dark Knight. Why there's a Dark Knight resonate with

0:08:50.920 --> 0:08:54.960
<v Speaker 2>you over say Batman Begins or Batman Forever.

0:08:56.559 --> 0:08:59.280
<v Speaker 5>I loved Batman Begins when it came out. I thought

0:08:59.280 --> 0:09:02.199
<v Speaker 5>it was like an awesome take on Batman. I'm a

0:09:02.360 --> 0:09:05.079
<v Speaker 5>very I'm not a very big That's that's a lie.

0:09:05.640 --> 0:09:08.520
<v Speaker 5>I'm a I'm a Batman fan. I the reason why

0:09:08.880 --> 0:09:11.280
<v Speaker 5>is not because of the comics, but because of the

0:09:11.440 --> 0:09:13.719
<v Speaker 5>Tim Burton movie that came out. And I was the

0:09:13.880 --> 0:09:15.679
<v Speaker 5>right age at the right time.

0:09:16.440 --> 0:09:18.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, when it came out eighty nine.

0:09:19.040 --> 0:09:21.920
<v Speaker 5>Eighty nine, yep, and I would have been roughly abound six,

0:09:22.840 --> 0:09:26.640
<v Speaker 5>and it was like awesome. Everything about it was just

0:09:26.800 --> 0:09:30.280
<v Speaker 5>so cool and yeah, you remember there's being just like insane.

0:09:30.559 --> 0:09:32.360
<v Speaker 2>You walk down the street and everybody was wearing a

0:09:32.360 --> 0:09:34.920
<v Speaker 2>Batman T shirt like it just was like every it

0:09:35.040 --> 0:09:36.000
<v Speaker 2>was everywhere.

0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:38.439
<v Speaker 5>It was everywhere, and it was just it was like

0:09:38.720 --> 0:09:40.959
<v Speaker 5>it was cool to wear one, just the symbol on

0:09:41.080 --> 0:09:45.880
<v Speaker 5>the front, like it was Yeah, and the Joker was

0:09:46.000 --> 0:09:48.800
<v Speaker 5>like Jack Nicholson was just incredible with that. It was

0:09:48.920 --> 0:09:52.199
<v Speaker 5>so I used to watch the Batman movies, like the

0:09:53.240 --> 0:09:55.079
<v Speaker 5>ones from the seventies when I was a kid, or

0:09:55.200 --> 0:09:55.360
<v Speaker 5>is it.

0:09:55.360 --> 0:09:58.240
<v Speaker 2>The seventies, Yeah, and with what's his name, Adam West,

0:09:58.760 --> 0:10:00.959
<v Speaker 2>Adam West, and I loved that.

0:10:01.240 --> 0:10:04.160
<v Speaker 5>I loved I remember them. They were turning people to powder.

0:10:04.280 --> 0:10:08.160
<v Speaker 5>I think they were dehydrating people from the from the

0:10:08.320 --> 0:10:13.160
<v Speaker 5>un which is just so funny, and Batman having shark

0:10:13.280 --> 0:10:16.880
<v Speaker 5>repellent in his belt and like that was real camp

0:10:16.960 --> 0:10:19.800
<v Speaker 5>and real fun. And I was a right age bracket

0:10:19.880 --> 0:10:21.520
<v Speaker 5>for that when that came out, and then when the

0:10:21.640 --> 0:10:23.520
<v Speaker 5>new one came out, and I was I think I

0:10:23.600 --> 0:10:25.319
<v Speaker 5>watched it. I would have been about eight, so probably

0:10:25.360 --> 0:10:27.960
<v Speaker 5>a couple of years after it came out at the cinemas.

0:10:27.960 --> 0:10:29.559
<v Speaker 5>I reckon, I watched it on the TV when it

0:10:29.600 --> 0:10:32.920
<v Speaker 5>came out and it was just so cool. And then

0:10:33.080 --> 0:10:35.160
<v Speaker 5>I got older, so I reckon, I've aged at the

0:10:35.280 --> 0:10:38.840
<v Speaker 5>right time for these Batman's to come out. Yeah, as yeah,

0:10:38.880 --> 0:10:41.440
<v Speaker 5>as the Dark Knight came out, well, as the Batman

0:10:41.480 --> 0:10:43.599
<v Speaker 5>Begins came out, I was the right age because that

0:10:43.679 --> 0:10:46.280
<v Speaker 5>was it's fairly growing up. It's a fairly serious movie.

0:10:46.360 --> 0:10:50.400
<v Speaker 5>It takes itself very seriously. And by this stage I'd

0:10:50.400 --> 0:10:53.000
<v Speaker 5>already gotten into a little bit of the Law of Batman,

0:10:53.240 --> 0:10:56.719
<v Speaker 5>so the rajah Ghoul stuff like where he trained and

0:10:56.840 --> 0:11:00.400
<v Speaker 5>learned how to fight, and just knowing a few more

0:11:00.520 --> 0:11:03.120
<v Speaker 5>deeper of the characters because I got into it. And

0:11:03.200 --> 0:11:05.800
<v Speaker 5>then yeah, and then that The Batman Begins came out.

0:11:05.840 --> 0:11:07.360
<v Speaker 5>That was so cool and it was a cool take.

0:11:07.800 --> 0:11:10.680
<v Speaker 5>But then the Dark Knight. I quote The Dark Knight

0:11:11.000 --> 0:11:15.800
<v Speaker 5>often even in life, in comedy, which I find so

0:11:16.000 --> 0:11:19.160
<v Speaker 5>stupidly funny, Like when when I'm talking to people about

0:11:19.200 --> 0:11:22.360
<v Speaker 5>comedy and you know, you would know this classic rule

0:11:22.520 --> 0:11:25.480
<v Speaker 5>of you could have like the killer of killer jokes ready,

0:11:26.040 --> 0:11:28.920
<v Speaker 5>but if you just got a really big laugh, like leave,

0:11:29.320 --> 0:11:32.040
<v Speaker 5>get off the stage. Yeah, like nothing, You've got this

0:11:32.160 --> 0:11:34.040
<v Speaker 5>little bit of a joke. That's and you're like, nah,

0:11:34.160 --> 0:11:37.400
<v Speaker 5>don't add that, dude, leave And I quote the Dark Knight.

0:11:37.480 --> 0:11:39.800
<v Speaker 5>I'm like, you could die the hero or live long

0:11:39.920 --> 0:11:41.079
<v Speaker 5>enough to become the villain.

0:11:41.880 --> 0:11:48.000
<v Speaker 2>That's that is great because there's nothing there's nothing worse

0:11:48.040 --> 0:11:50.200
<v Speaker 2>when you're waiting to come on, particularly maybe if you're

0:11:50.240 --> 0:11:53.839
<v Speaker 2>headlining and there's there's somebody in the MC has gone out,

0:11:53.840 --> 0:11:57.000
<v Speaker 2>and usually, you know, my advice to them usually is,

0:11:57.200 --> 0:11:59.480
<v Speaker 2>you know, just get them comfortable, get a laugh or

0:11:59.480 --> 0:12:01.760
<v Speaker 2>to it, and and bring me on. And I think

0:12:01.800 --> 0:12:04.280
<v Speaker 2>most headliners kind of feel like that. Sometimes you hear

0:12:04.320 --> 0:12:06.440
<v Speaker 2>the laugh making the applause, you think, okay, yeah, okay,

0:12:07.000 --> 0:12:08.760
<v Speaker 2>here we go, here we go. You got the applause.

0:12:09.120 --> 0:12:12.040
<v Speaker 2>Nothing beats in the applause. Oh they got another one.

0:12:12.200 --> 0:12:15.319
<v Speaker 1>Oh they can top that.

0:12:15.600 --> 0:12:17.000
<v Speaker 5>Ok. I don't reckon, I could.

0:12:17.559 --> 0:12:19.840
<v Speaker 1>They're waiting for the standing ovation before they bring you up.

0:12:22.679 --> 0:12:26.320
<v Speaker 5>Absolutely, it's yeah. So it's it's so funny. There's there's

0:12:26.360 --> 0:12:29.600
<v Speaker 5>so many of those little little quotes in the movie

0:12:29.679 --> 0:12:32.319
<v Speaker 5>that just pop into my head whenever I sort of

0:12:32.559 --> 0:12:34.959
<v Speaker 5>need to use like a reference, and it's just it's

0:12:35.040 --> 0:12:38.640
<v Speaker 5>weird that I'm I'm constantly quoting Batman or if I'm

0:12:38.720 --> 0:12:43.320
<v Speaker 5>quoting like the Joker something stupid. So it's it's fun. Yeah,

0:12:43.480 --> 0:12:45.960
<v Speaker 5>and I love it. It's fantastic movie. It's well put

0:12:46.000 --> 0:12:48.160
<v Speaker 5>together and obviously.

0:12:47.920 --> 0:12:51.760
<v Speaker 2>And he'th leedged obviously, Yeah, blew it away, And yeah,

0:12:51.960 --> 0:12:55.000
<v Speaker 2>it was so cool. Let's talk about when that's obviously

0:12:55.080 --> 0:12:58.120
<v Speaker 2>come up a few times, which is sure shank redemption.

0:12:58.880 --> 0:13:03.199
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, it's f's I put it down as and I'm

0:13:03.240 --> 0:13:05.320
<v Speaker 5>sure I'm not alone in this greatest movie that's ever

0:13:05.400 --> 0:13:09.959
<v Speaker 5>been made. It came out to like bad reception, never

0:13:10.160 --> 0:13:13.400
<v Speaker 5>never got the love that it deserved, found love later on.

0:13:14.040 --> 0:13:18.439
<v Speaker 5>I it's everything. It's got. Every Andy Duffrain is like

0:13:18.640 --> 0:13:22.120
<v Speaker 5>one of the greatest characters, and they still played off

0:13:22.160 --> 0:13:23.520
<v Speaker 5>as in like did he do it? Did he not?

0:13:24.120 --> 0:13:27.240
<v Speaker 5>Like there's no there's no resolution in that. I think

0:13:27.320 --> 0:13:31.679
<v Speaker 5>I find that the the coolness of the movie is

0:13:31.720 --> 0:13:36.760
<v Speaker 5>that there's no absolutes. It's just what what what? However

0:13:36.800 --> 0:13:39.959
<v Speaker 5>you interpret this? That's cool? Made of my again this

0:13:40.160 --> 0:13:43.400
<v Speaker 5>I find this really funny. My my friend that I

0:13:43.440 --> 0:13:47.760
<v Speaker 5>went to high school with his teacher wheeled in a

0:13:47.880 --> 0:13:52.200
<v Speaker 5>TV every Joe with a VHS and it was Shawshank

0:13:52.240 --> 0:13:56.520
<v Speaker 5>Redemption and was always playing movies and short Shank Redemption

0:13:56.679 --> 0:13:59.400
<v Speaker 5>was something that he often chose to play. And I

0:13:59.520 --> 0:14:02.000
<v Speaker 5>was like, you learn anything from that? Surely? Like you

0:14:02.040 --> 0:14:04.800
<v Speaker 5>don't learn? And what's like I live around the corner

0:14:04.880 --> 0:14:07.199
<v Speaker 5>from a from an art center and they've got a

0:14:07.240 --> 0:14:10.360
<v Speaker 5>little sign that just says Lapidary Club, And I was like,

0:14:10.440 --> 0:14:12.600
<v Speaker 5>I don't know what lapidary is. And my mate goes,

0:14:12.679 --> 0:14:15.280
<v Speaker 5>that's rock shaping, and I'm like, how how did you

0:14:15.400 --> 0:14:16.959
<v Speaker 5>know that? You'll like the dumbest guy I know? And

0:14:17.000 --> 0:14:21.800
<v Speaker 5>he goes Shawshank Redemption. He asks for a little rock

0:14:21.880 --> 0:14:24.160
<v Speaker 5>shaper and he goes, what do you want to you

0:14:24.200 --> 0:14:26.160
<v Speaker 5>want to stick that in somebody's head? And he goes, NA,

0:14:26.280 --> 0:14:30.120
<v Speaker 5>I need it for lapidary, Like you learn from the

0:14:30.240 --> 0:14:34.720
<v Speaker 5>teacher that played movies all the time. That's so funny.

0:14:34.840 --> 0:14:37.160
<v Speaker 5>And the reason why he played movies is because he

0:14:37.240 --> 0:14:38.520
<v Speaker 5>was hung over like half the time.

0:14:39.000 --> 0:14:41.080
<v Speaker 1>And but this guy still learned.

0:14:41.120 --> 0:14:42.280
<v Speaker 5>That's the funniest thing.

0:14:42.560 --> 0:14:46.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, And what I think I try to think about why, why?

0:14:46.640 --> 0:14:50.120
<v Speaker 2>What is it about shaw Shank that touches people? And

0:14:50.240 --> 0:14:53.120
<v Speaker 2>I think it's quite It's quite a poetic film, you know,

0:14:53.760 --> 0:14:56.920
<v Speaker 2>in a way like the narration from you know, the

0:14:57.000 --> 0:15:01.720
<v Speaker 2>honey Tones of Morgan Freeman. A beautiful it's beautifully shot,

0:15:01.720 --> 0:15:05.440
<v Speaker 2>and I think it's it's poetic enough, but not too much,

0:15:05.680 --> 0:15:06.160
<v Speaker 2>you know what I mean.

0:15:06.240 --> 0:15:08.040
<v Speaker 1>Like it's got it's got some darkness. It's it's got

0:15:08.160 --> 0:15:08.760
<v Speaker 1>darkness to it.

0:15:09.000 --> 0:15:10.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, there are scenes that are you know, basically where

0:15:11.120 --> 0:15:14.280
<v Speaker 2>there's rape involved, and it's it gets pretty dark, it's

0:15:14.280 --> 0:15:16.320
<v Speaker 2>suicide like it's it's a it's a dark film, but

0:15:16.360 --> 0:15:20.680
<v Speaker 2>there is this poetry to it that is accessible I

0:15:20.840 --> 0:15:24.920
<v Speaker 2>think for mainstream audiences, you know, like like people like

0:15:25.000 --> 0:15:27.960
<v Speaker 2>your mate, like like just people who well it's not

0:15:28.120 --> 0:15:31.320
<v Speaker 2>like lyrical. Well if somebody somebodys a movie is lyrical,

0:15:31.360 --> 0:15:35.200
<v Speaker 2>I get I get nervous. It's going to be style

0:15:35.280 --> 0:15:37.440
<v Speaker 2>over substance potentially, and it's going to be it's going

0:15:37.520 --> 0:15:39.280
<v Speaker 2>to be beautiful and it's gonna you know, and I can,

0:15:39.360 --> 0:15:41.480
<v Speaker 2>I can. I can love lyrical movies. But this is

0:15:42.120 --> 0:15:44.720
<v Speaker 2>shaw Shaking, I think. Is it has the right amount

0:15:44.760 --> 0:15:49.440
<v Speaker 2>of poetry and and and and meaning that people can

0:15:50.800 --> 0:15:51.320
<v Speaker 2>hook into.

0:15:51.440 --> 0:15:55.520
<v Speaker 5>I think I totally agree, And I think it's you

0:15:55.640 --> 0:15:58.640
<v Speaker 5>know what it is that essence of justice. I feel like,

0:15:59.080 --> 0:16:03.680
<v Speaker 5>is he works hard for it, but it comes to

0:16:04.240 --> 0:16:08.120
<v Speaker 5>fruition eventually. And I love I love that. I love

0:16:08.200 --> 0:16:11.640
<v Speaker 5>that he Yeah, there's there seems to be this this

0:16:12.080 --> 0:16:16.640
<v Speaker 5>justice dealt in the movie. The people people get their comeuppins,

0:16:16.720 --> 0:16:19.080
<v Speaker 5>and you're like cool, because there's a lot of times

0:16:19.120 --> 0:16:22.480
<v Speaker 5>where people well a lot of these movies they dig

0:16:22.640 --> 0:16:26.520
<v Speaker 5>holes and they're like, oh, the protagonist has got this

0:16:26.720 --> 0:16:28.360
<v Speaker 5>going on and this going on, and this is how

0:16:28.400 --> 0:16:29.840
<v Speaker 5>are they going to get out of it? And I

0:16:29.960 --> 0:16:32.520
<v Speaker 5>feel like they cheat code a lot at the end

0:16:32.720 --> 0:16:35.760
<v Speaker 5>and just go magic and you're like, no, that sucks.

0:16:36.400 --> 0:16:39.320
<v Speaker 5>Whereas this guy he worked hard, he was he played

0:16:39.360 --> 0:16:42.760
<v Speaker 5>that long game and it really paid off. And there's

0:16:43.280 --> 0:16:45.960
<v Speaker 5>there's a twist in the movie that we don't there's

0:16:46.000 --> 0:16:47.960
<v Speaker 5>not really a twist, but it is a twist. It's

0:16:48.480 --> 0:16:51.040
<v Speaker 5>it's just really well done. I think it didn't even

0:16:51.920 --> 0:16:55.120
<v Speaker 5>Stephen King say that like he loved the movie, which

0:16:55.200 --> 0:16:58.840
<v Speaker 5>is like he wrote the book. You've got to create

0:16:58.920 --> 0:17:02.080
<v Speaker 5>a good movie. If the guy who wrote the story

0:17:02.640 --> 0:17:04.320
<v Speaker 5>goes that's a that's a good movie.

0:17:04.520 --> 0:17:05.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, absolutely.

0:17:05.680 --> 0:17:08.639
<v Speaker 2>You know, there's been plenty of examples of people, you know,

0:17:08.720 --> 0:17:12.800
<v Speaker 2>writers not not enjoying the adaptations of their work.

0:17:13.720 --> 0:17:14.720
<v Speaker 1>That's that's quite a long list.

0:17:14.800 --> 0:17:18.159
<v Speaker 5>But especially Stephen King, like he because he didn't like

0:17:18.320 --> 0:17:21.640
<v Speaker 5>the was it the myst like I think, yeah, yeah.

0:17:21.440 --> 0:17:23.680
<v Speaker 1>I think there's a couple that he hasn't stand by me.

0:17:24.119 --> 0:17:25.960
<v Speaker 1>I think he had a bit of an issue with.

0:17:26.160 --> 0:17:28.560
<v Speaker 5>I loved Have you seen it? Am I allowed to

0:17:28.600 --> 0:17:32.520
<v Speaker 5>talk about there's a spoiler in this in the mist

0:17:33.119 --> 0:17:37.000
<v Speaker 5>there's a it's the it's a movie theory, but I

0:17:37.080 --> 0:17:39.880
<v Speaker 5>think it's really fun. Have you seen it, You've seen

0:17:39.920 --> 0:17:40.200
<v Speaker 5>the Myss?

0:17:40.840 --> 0:17:41.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't think I have.

0:17:41.640 --> 0:17:45.080
<v Speaker 5>Actually, it's so the miss comes and there's it's there's

0:17:45.119 --> 0:17:48.320
<v Speaker 5>speaky alien monsters and all this type of stuff. But

0:17:48.480 --> 0:17:51.640
<v Speaker 5>the big sort of thing in the movie is how

0:17:51.760 --> 0:17:54.159
<v Speaker 5>people react to it, like because it's that fear of

0:17:54.200 --> 0:17:56.920
<v Speaker 5>the unknown. And they're in a supermarket and there's this

0:17:57.119 --> 0:18:01.040
<v Speaker 5>lady and she almost gives that vibe of reallyous connotations

0:18:01.400 --> 0:18:04.840
<v Speaker 5>and she's like, we have to sacrifice your child. The

0:18:05.119 --> 0:18:07.399
<v Speaker 5>protagonist has got a son that he's just trying to

0:18:07.440 --> 0:18:10.920
<v Speaker 5>look after and he's just trying to save his son,

0:18:11.000 --> 0:18:14.080
<v Speaker 5>and it's in this supermarket and people are like trying

0:18:14.119 --> 0:18:17.159
<v Speaker 5>to pull the son off him and give him to

0:18:17.280 --> 0:18:21.600
<v Speaker 5>the to the beasts in the mist, and it's that's

0:18:21.720 --> 0:18:25.280
<v Speaker 5>real crazy. That's a cool part of the movie. But

0:18:25.440 --> 0:18:29.880
<v Speaker 5>the theory behind it is because and this is the spoiler,

0:18:30.000 --> 0:18:32.479
<v Speaker 5>is at the end of the movie, they end up

0:18:32.520 --> 0:18:34.879
<v Speaker 5>driving into the mist and they get caught up and

0:18:34.920 --> 0:18:38.119
<v Speaker 5>they're like, well, there's nothing nothing else I can do,

0:18:38.440 --> 0:18:41.360
<v Speaker 5>and so he's sacrificed, like he pulls out a gun

0:18:41.440 --> 0:18:47.680
<v Speaker 5>and kills everybody. But once his son dies, the mist

0:18:48.040 --> 0:18:52.320
<v Speaker 5>clears up and the army come through. And the twist

0:18:52.440 --> 0:18:54.679
<v Speaker 5>is obviously that he killed everybody and all he had

0:18:54.680 --> 0:18:58.280
<v Speaker 5>to do was wait thirty seconds and the army would

0:18:58.280 --> 0:18:58.800
<v Speaker 5>have taken over.

0:18:59.080 --> 0:19:00.560
<v Speaker 1>That's why I just just wait for the weather of

0:19:00.600 --> 0:19:05.159
<v Speaker 1>the past, you know, the past overreact.

0:19:05.640 --> 0:19:10.720
<v Speaker 5>You know. It's such a it's such a crazy film. Yeah,

0:19:10.720 --> 0:19:13.080
<v Speaker 5>I suppose that's that's probably why Stephen King was angry

0:19:13.119 --> 0:19:13.399
<v Speaker 5>about that.

0:19:13.840 --> 0:19:19.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, sure, sure. Janks an absolute ripper, one that

0:19:19.640 --> 0:19:21.240
<v Speaker 2>doesn't necessarily hold a place.

0:19:21.920 --> 0:19:25.800
<v Speaker 1>In in my heart. And I'm not even sure i've

0:19:25.840 --> 0:19:26.600
<v Speaker 1>seen his Dread?

0:19:28.119 --> 0:19:28.680
<v Speaker 5>Is that? Is it?

0:19:28.760 --> 0:19:31.919
<v Speaker 2>The recent the remake? Yeah, okay, tell us about your

0:19:32.200 --> 0:19:34.040
<v Speaker 2>your love of dread, uh.

0:19:35.240 --> 0:19:39.360
<v Speaker 5>Your love of dreads. But I love it. It's yeah,

0:19:39.400 --> 0:19:42.640
<v Speaker 5>it's got Carl Urban in it as as a lead.

0:19:42.800 --> 0:19:46.919
<v Speaker 5>It is. It's just it's one of my favorite films

0:19:46.920 --> 0:19:50.920
<v Speaker 5>because it's directed so incredibly like it's such an incredible

0:19:50.960 --> 0:19:54.440
<v Speaker 5>watch as a movie. It's got the vibe of like

0:19:55.040 --> 0:19:57.520
<v Speaker 5>what they wanted to do in the eighties and nineties

0:19:57.560 --> 0:20:01.679
<v Speaker 5>with action movies, but it's done cleanly with what they

0:20:01.760 --> 0:20:06.680
<v Speaker 5>can do now. The whole one with Sylvester Stallone. It

0:20:06.840 --> 0:20:09.680
<v Speaker 5>was weird, Like it's a weird movie, right. I loved

0:20:09.720 --> 0:20:11.560
<v Speaker 5>it when I was a kid because I just loved

0:20:11.600 --> 0:20:13.720
<v Speaker 5>all those action movies. It was really fun to watch.

0:20:14.640 --> 0:20:17.960
<v Speaker 5>But this was an actual cool movie where it's got

0:20:18.119 --> 0:20:21.280
<v Speaker 5>like these effects. They have a drug in the movie

0:20:21.359 --> 0:20:24.720
<v Speaker 5>called slow Mo, and then when they do the drugs,

0:20:25.080 --> 0:20:28.280
<v Speaker 5>it's the whole movie slows down into slow mo and

0:20:28.359 --> 0:20:31.719
<v Speaker 5>gives you the You get to watch it from their

0:20:31.760 --> 0:20:36.120
<v Speaker 5>point of view, okay, and that's a really cool idea

0:20:36.240 --> 0:20:39.000
<v Speaker 5>for them to so, and then that gives us action

0:20:39.160 --> 0:20:42.879
<v Speaker 5>sequences so much more like Kick. Yeah, another movie that

0:20:43.240 --> 0:20:44.679
<v Speaker 5>didn't get a bit of love when it was at

0:20:44.720 --> 0:20:47.960
<v Speaker 5>the cinemas, but later found its hone, which is a

0:20:48.040 --> 0:20:50.479
<v Speaker 5>real shame because I was keen to watch a sequel

0:20:50.560 --> 0:20:52.960
<v Speaker 5>on that. But I don't think that that will ever

0:20:53.040 --> 0:20:54.520
<v Speaker 5>be because I just don't think people will see the

0:20:54.560 --> 0:20:55.000
<v Speaker 5>money in it.

0:20:55.160 --> 0:20:55.560
<v Speaker 4>You never know.

0:20:55.640 --> 0:20:58.720
<v Speaker 2>I mean, things can, like saw Shank can find its

0:20:58.800 --> 0:21:02.280
<v Speaker 2>the audience have a time, and I certainly Whenel recently

0:21:02.440 --> 0:21:05.200
<v Speaker 2>just did Wolfman and we're chatting about the Thing, which

0:21:05.320 --> 0:21:07.639
<v Speaker 2>you know was released about the same time as a

0:21:07.720 --> 0:21:10.879
<v Speaker 2>later runner. Both were not hits, but have really have

0:21:11.040 --> 0:21:14.440
<v Speaker 2>since become massive, you know, like but love you know,

0:21:14.600 --> 0:21:17.480
<v Speaker 2>and as Lee said, it just proves that the only

0:21:17.560 --> 0:21:18.280
<v Speaker 2>true critic is.

0:21:18.320 --> 0:21:22.119
<v Speaker 1>Time, you know, and sometimes you do need that time and.

0:21:22.119 --> 0:21:24.960
<v Speaker 2>Perspective and and sometimes about the world catching up to

0:21:25.040 --> 0:21:26.280
<v Speaker 2>what the movie was about as well.

0:21:27.320 --> 0:21:33.000
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I love the idea of this is such an

0:21:33.080 --> 0:21:37.560
<v Speaker 5>eighties thing because since you haven't seen it, but dread comes.

0:21:37.800 --> 0:21:41.320
<v Speaker 5>So's he's the law. He is the police officer, but

0:21:41.400 --> 0:21:44.840
<v Speaker 5>he's also the judge and the executioner if need be.

0:21:45.480 --> 0:21:48.080
<v Speaker 5>So when when they come in they do, they see them,

0:21:48.200 --> 0:21:50.000
<v Speaker 5>and then they judge them on the spot, and then

0:21:50.040 --> 0:21:53.560
<v Speaker 5>they that the population is so huge that they just

0:21:53.760 --> 0:21:55.640
<v Speaker 5>need to take care of the law then and there

0:21:55.840 --> 0:21:58.600
<v Speaker 5>get it done. And so then he will literally just

0:21:58.840 --> 0:22:01.880
<v Speaker 5>just pull out his weapon and and instantly like take

0:22:01.960 --> 0:22:03.880
<v Speaker 5>care of what needs to be taken care of once

0:22:03.920 --> 0:22:08.560
<v Speaker 5>they've been judged. This building, So they get into a building,

0:22:08.600 --> 0:22:12.800
<v Speaker 5>building goes into lockdown. The bad guy or bad girl

0:22:12.880 --> 0:22:15.239
<v Speaker 5>should we say that in this particular movie, is at

0:22:15.280 --> 0:22:18.160
<v Speaker 5>the top of the building and he has to make

0:22:18.240 --> 0:22:22.960
<v Speaker 5>his way up the levels past different villains on the way.

0:22:23.400 --> 0:22:24.480
<v Speaker 5>Some have different guards.

0:22:24.520 --> 0:22:26.680
<v Speaker 1>It's just such a cool it's cool.

0:22:26.720 --> 0:22:29.720
<v Speaker 5>It is sort of movie, but it's obviously filmed in

0:22:30.040 --> 0:22:34.119
<v Speaker 5>the twenty ten's, I think, or even the two thousand,

0:22:34.240 --> 0:22:38.040
<v Speaker 5>so it's such as it's relies on those old tropes,

0:22:38.080 --> 0:22:39.920
<v Speaker 5>but it's a new take on it, and I just

0:22:40.119 --> 0:22:43.600
<v Speaker 5>dig it. I think it's got a lot of nostalgia

0:22:44.160 --> 0:22:45.000
<v Speaker 5>for a new movie.

0:22:45.400 --> 0:22:49.199
<v Speaker 1>Okay, okay, I'll check that out. Dread is on Take

0:22:49.240 --> 0:22:52.240
<v Speaker 1>it out. It's great, But let's talk about the movie

0:22:52.320 --> 0:22:54.520
<v Speaker 1>we are here to talk about.

0:22:54.920 --> 0:22:56.440
<v Speaker 3>I don't want to be in the car anymore. I

0:22:56.560 --> 0:22:57.200
<v Speaker 3>want to go home.

0:22:57.359 --> 0:22:59.840
<v Speaker 5>I don't want to go to Wali World Clark under

0:22:59.840 --> 0:23:02.680
<v Speaker 5>the circumstances, I wouldn't mind if we just went home.

0:23:03.000 --> 0:23:05.640
<v Speaker 3>In retrospect, it seems like a pretty bad idea driving out.

0:23:05.640 --> 0:23:08.639
<v Speaker 3>It's been one disaster after another. Yeah, it's been a

0:23:08.680 --> 0:23:11.719
<v Speaker 3>real drag Dad. Maybe we can try it some all

0:23:11.800 --> 0:23:14.080
<v Speaker 3>the time. Why the world's overrated?

0:23:14.119 --> 0:23:14.479
<v Speaker 6>Anyway?

0:23:15.840 --> 0:23:16.440
<v Speaker 5>What do you think?

0:23:20.400 --> 0:23:22.880
<v Speaker 4>I think you're all fucked in the head. We're ten

0:23:22.960 --> 0:23:26.320
<v Speaker 4>hours from the fucking fun park and you wanna bail out. Well,

0:23:26.359 --> 0:23:27.080
<v Speaker 4>I'll tell you something.

0:23:27.160 --> 0:23:29.600
<v Speaker 5>This is no longer a vacation. It's a quest.

0:23:30.200 --> 0:23:33.040
<v Speaker 1>It's a quest for fun. I'm gonna have fun, and

0:23:33.119 --> 0:23:33.960
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna have fun.

0:23:34.359 --> 0:23:35.880
<v Speaker 4>We're all gonna have so much fucking fun.

0:23:35.920 --> 0:23:38.560
<v Speaker 7>When lead plastic surgery don't remove our goddamn s files,

0:23:39.160 --> 0:23:41.680
<v Speaker 7>you'll be whistling symphony due to out of your assholes.

0:23:43.840 --> 0:23:45.679
<v Speaker 4>I gotta be crazy. I'm gonna pilgrimage to.

0:23:45.680 --> 0:23:48.479
<v Speaker 1>See a Moose, praise Marty Moose.

0:23:49.480 --> 0:23:52.920
<v Speaker 3>Ohly, shit, Dad, you want to ask for something?

0:23:53.760 --> 0:23:57.240
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I'm excited when the comedian says that having not

0:23:57.320 --> 0:24:00.480
<v Speaker 2>seen this movie, which is in my life, and I'm

0:24:00.480 --> 0:24:02.359
<v Speaker 2>a bit older than you, Dane, so I understand why.

0:24:02.440 --> 0:24:04.440
<v Speaker 2>Maybe you haven't seen it. But this was such a

0:24:04.560 --> 0:24:07.400
<v Speaker 2>quotable movie with me and my friends. There's so many

0:24:07.480 --> 0:24:10.560
<v Speaker 2>things we used to quote from this movie. I cannot

0:24:10.600 --> 0:24:13.200
<v Speaker 2>wait to find out. What did you think? Did you

0:24:13.400 --> 0:24:20.160
<v Speaker 2>enjoy from nineteen eighty three Beverly the Angelo, obviously Chevy Chase,

0:24:20.600 --> 0:24:23.360
<v Speaker 2>Anthony Michael Hall, direct by Harold Ramis, written by John Hughes.

0:24:23.400 --> 0:24:26.119
<v Speaker 2>Did you enjoy National Lampoon's Vacation?

0:24:27.840 --> 0:24:31.800
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, yeah, I enjoyed it. It was a good movie.

0:24:32.000 --> 0:24:34.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah yeah, I certainly.

0:24:35.080 --> 0:24:39.840
<v Speaker 5>Don't see the iconicness of it, and maybe, yeah, it

0:24:39.960 --> 0:24:41.719
<v Speaker 5>is a it's a weird do you know what I'm

0:24:41.720 --> 0:24:44.199
<v Speaker 5>putting it down to. And this might come across as

0:24:44.280 --> 0:24:47.280
<v Speaker 5>really rude, but I find it to be very appealing

0:24:47.960 --> 0:24:56.600
<v Speaker 5>to old white dads. It's just it's just got that

0:24:56.960 --> 0:25:00.240
<v Speaker 5>vibe to it where, like I reckon, a mom would

0:25:00.240 --> 0:25:03.440
<v Speaker 5>watch it and go yeah and kids, and it's just

0:25:03.800 --> 0:25:07.600
<v Speaker 5>it's it's set and like absolutely stars an old white

0:25:07.680 --> 0:25:10.440
<v Speaker 5>dad who can just take his brain and put it

0:25:10.520 --> 0:25:15.280
<v Speaker 5>straight into Chevy Chase's character Griswold and just go yeah,

0:25:15.560 --> 0:25:17.199
<v Speaker 5>I'm like that, and you're like.

0:25:17.600 --> 0:25:21.119
<v Speaker 2>Great, well, it's it's interesting because I mean, first of all,

0:25:21.160 --> 0:25:22.879
<v Speaker 2>I love this movie when I was a teenage, Like

0:25:23.280 --> 0:25:25.840
<v Speaker 2>when I was a teenager, so and all our friends

0:25:25.880 --> 0:25:28.119
<v Speaker 2>watched it, and I have to say, my wife loves this,

0:25:28.320 --> 0:25:32.399
<v Speaker 2>like like I know it's about like I kind of

0:25:32.520 --> 0:25:34.800
<v Speaker 2>know what you're saying, because that's what the central character

0:25:34.920 --> 0:25:38.600
<v Speaker 2>kind of is. But I think the main line into

0:25:38.680 --> 0:25:43.399
<v Speaker 2>this movie is just like being on holidays with the

0:25:43.520 --> 0:25:45.200
<v Speaker 2>family and if you've ever been in that situation where

0:25:45.240 --> 0:25:48.200
<v Speaker 2>you're in the back of the backseat of the car. Originally,

0:25:48.280 --> 0:25:50.879
<v Speaker 2>the movie You Know, was based on an article that

0:25:50.960 --> 0:25:52.960
<v Speaker 2>John Hughes had written for The National lampoons, which is

0:25:53.000 --> 0:25:56.280
<v Speaker 2>called Vacation fifty six forty six or fifty eight, and

0:25:56.560 --> 0:26:00.919
<v Speaker 2>it was largely told through rusties the kid point of view,

0:26:01.240 --> 0:26:05.000
<v Speaker 2>which kind of explains the the slight weirdness of the

0:26:05.160 --> 0:26:08.680
<v Speaker 2>Ferrari girl played by Christy Brinkley. And we'll get to

0:26:08.760 --> 0:26:11.000
<v Speaker 2>that soon. So that was maybe like a fourteen year

0:26:11.000 --> 0:26:12.879
<v Speaker 2>old girl that like Russi's in the back seat, you know,

0:26:12.960 --> 0:26:14.640
<v Speaker 2>with his parents in the front, and he's like looking

0:26:15.359 --> 0:26:17.040
<v Speaker 2>looking over at his footing your girl, and they're kind

0:26:17.040 --> 0:26:19.320
<v Speaker 2>of like and they're kind of, you know, flirting, and

0:26:19.760 --> 0:26:21.879
<v Speaker 2>you know he's feeling weird about the whole thing, and

0:26:22.000 --> 0:26:24.480
<v Speaker 2>that that is way more innocent and kind of I think.

0:26:25.160 --> 0:26:29.040
<v Speaker 5>That would genuinely make way more sense, man, because the

0:26:31.680 --> 0:26:36.080
<v Speaker 5>main character just basically cheating on his wife.

0:26:37.160 --> 0:26:38.800
<v Speaker 1>Like it's so funny.

0:26:38.880 --> 0:26:40.240
<v Speaker 2>Like when I was watching it as a kid, and

0:26:40.520 --> 0:26:42.840
<v Speaker 2>for so many years watching it, you knew it's a

0:26:42.880 --> 0:26:45.040
<v Speaker 2>bit weird and all that, but I just kind of went, oh, whatever,

0:26:45.160 --> 0:26:48.119
<v Speaker 2>you know, Like watching it kind of more recently in

0:26:48.200 --> 0:26:50.640
<v Speaker 2>recent years, you kind of go, it's such a big

0:26:51.840 --> 0:26:56.719
<v Speaker 2>swing and risk to take to have this guy who

0:26:56.760 --> 0:26:59.440
<v Speaker 2>you need to believe like and he's a he's a

0:26:59.480 --> 0:27:01.560
<v Speaker 2>good dad. You know, he gets two days off a

0:27:01.640 --> 0:27:04.159
<v Speaker 2>year and he wants this And that's the in for

0:27:04.280 --> 0:27:06.119
<v Speaker 2>me as well, Like being a dad, you're going to

0:27:06.200 --> 0:27:07.920
<v Speaker 2>go yeah, And this is as I get older and

0:27:07.960 --> 0:27:09.880
<v Speaker 2>now I am a dad, they're going to go, yeah,

0:27:09.880 --> 0:27:11.119
<v Speaker 2>I know what it's light to kind of go, I

0:27:11.240 --> 0:27:13.440
<v Speaker 2>want this to be perfect, you know, and I want

0:27:13.480 --> 0:27:16.200
<v Speaker 2>this am I to be honest. My wife would feel

0:27:16.200 --> 0:27:18.360
<v Speaker 2>like that as well. Like I think that's even these

0:27:18.480 --> 0:27:22.359
<v Speaker 2>days seen as a dad thing. I think my wife

0:27:22.680 --> 0:27:25.159
<v Speaker 2>as a mum, wants everything to be as good as

0:27:25.160 --> 0:27:26.240
<v Speaker 2>they can be for her kids.

0:27:26.280 --> 0:27:28.600
<v Speaker 1>But it's a holiday, whether it's it's.

0:27:28.600 --> 0:27:31.480
<v Speaker 2>Getting them ready for a school excursion, whatever it might be,

0:27:31.640 --> 0:27:34.720
<v Speaker 2>you know, making sure they're prepared for sport, all that stuff.

0:27:35.119 --> 0:27:39.159
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, the idea that he's a good dad. And

0:27:39.240 --> 0:27:42.240
<v Speaker 2>then the hot girl comes along in the Ferrari. Sure,

0:27:42.280 --> 0:27:45.359
<v Speaker 2>if you want to have that fantasy going, that's all fine.

0:27:45.400 --> 0:27:48.840
<v Speaker 2>The fantasy, Yeah, we get it, you know whatever, But

0:27:49.080 --> 0:27:51.919
<v Speaker 2>it's the follow through at the hotel later on.

0:27:54.800 --> 0:28:00.920
<v Speaker 5>Go what Like I almost thought that this could this

0:28:01.200 --> 0:28:05.520
<v Speaker 5>girl could not exist, Like for three quarters of the movie,

0:28:05.640 --> 0:28:08.440
<v Speaker 5>I was like, maybe because everyone else is asleep, and

0:28:08.600 --> 0:28:10.840
<v Speaker 5>then he's just he's in his own world and he

0:28:11.000 --> 0:28:16.840
<v Speaker 5>just dreams of I wish I was like single or

0:28:17.320 --> 0:28:19.600
<v Speaker 5>back in my day when I still got it, Like

0:28:19.680 --> 0:28:23.800
<v Speaker 5>he's got these fantasies of him being like young again

0:28:24.000 --> 0:28:27.960
<v Speaker 5>or still attractive. And I get that that's really funny,

0:28:28.040 --> 0:28:30.439
<v Speaker 5>and that I thought that in the movie leading right

0:28:30.560 --> 0:28:34.560
<v Speaker 5>up to him actually meeting her and her being real

0:28:34.640 --> 0:28:37.760
<v Speaker 5>and being seen by other people, I was like, this

0:28:37.960 --> 0:28:40.959
<v Speaker 5>is a cool I get where he's where this imagination

0:28:41.160 --> 0:28:43.840
<v Speaker 5>is coming from. And then hopefully we find out that

0:28:43.920 --> 0:28:47.120
<v Speaker 5>this is not real, because I don't want this guy

0:28:47.200 --> 0:28:51.440
<v Speaker 5>to be a like he's a good dad, but he's

0:28:51.440 --> 0:28:52.120
<v Speaker 5>got to cree it.

0:28:52.200 --> 0:28:53.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he's a piece of you.

0:28:55.200 --> 0:28:56.680
<v Speaker 5>And then that's where I thought it was going to go,

0:28:56.840 --> 0:28:59.000
<v Speaker 5>and I was like, Oh, this is great. And then yeah,

0:28:59.080 --> 0:29:01.600
<v Speaker 5>when she was real and they're they're in a pool

0:29:01.680 --> 0:29:03.800
<v Speaker 5>together and I'm just like, oh, dude, And then he's

0:29:04.280 --> 0:29:06.400
<v Speaker 5>explaining it to his life but he's just doing the

0:29:06.480 --> 0:29:07.800
<v Speaker 5>whole but you get it.

0:29:08.560 --> 0:29:11.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, and she kind of goes along with it

0:29:11.360 --> 0:29:13.880
<v Speaker 2>because you know, and that's the level of the movie

0:29:13.920 --> 0:29:16.440
<v Speaker 2>that we're dealing with. We're not dealing with a real

0:29:16.560 --> 0:29:19.920
<v Speaker 2>examination of a marriage and desires and all that. But

0:29:20.000 --> 0:29:23.160
<v Speaker 2>I think what you are proposing is the perfect fix

0:29:23.320 --> 0:29:25.360
<v Speaker 2>for it. Like you can even have the scene where

0:29:25.400 --> 0:29:27.600
<v Speaker 2>they're having a drink and he's lying about being, you know,

0:29:28.240 --> 0:29:30.240
<v Speaker 2>the owner of the hotel, and then they can go

0:29:30.320 --> 0:29:33.240
<v Speaker 2>into the pool, but as soon as you know, somebody

0:29:33.680 --> 0:29:36.280
<v Speaker 2>comes out, she just disappears because she's a fantasy.

0:29:37.080 --> 0:29:39.480
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, and I thought that that would be exactly what

0:29:39.640 --> 0:29:42.480
<v Speaker 5>was going to happen, That everyone comes out, sees him

0:29:43.000 --> 0:29:47.560
<v Speaker 5>naked in the pool, and then everyone goes, there's no girl,

0:29:48.920 --> 0:29:51.960
<v Speaker 5>and then he sort of wonders whether there really was

0:29:52.080 --> 0:29:54.960
<v Speaker 5>or whether whether she took off or And I thought

0:29:55.000 --> 0:29:57.040
<v Speaker 5>that that's cool. I could, I could. That could be

0:29:57.160 --> 0:30:00.400
<v Speaker 5>the the just side note, whether you take from what

0:30:00.520 --> 0:30:04.800
<v Speaker 5>you want from it. But yeah, and then I was like,

0:30:05.000 --> 0:30:08.080
<v Speaker 5>maybe it could still exist, like maybe that still exists

0:30:08.120 --> 0:30:10.280
<v Speaker 5>in my brain. But then he talks to Rusty.

0:30:11.920 --> 0:30:14.840
<v Speaker 1>And then was it Rusty Rusty yeah, Rusty, ye yeah, yeah.

0:30:14.880 --> 0:30:17.400
<v Speaker 5>He talks to Rusty and then Rusty is like, who's

0:30:17.440 --> 0:30:19.360
<v Speaker 5>that girl? Or we've seen the girl in the pool,

0:30:19.440 --> 0:30:21.840
<v Speaker 5>And then I'm like, ah, And then I thought maybe

0:30:21.880 --> 0:30:23.760
<v Speaker 5>they did that because it's a good gag for a

0:30:23.920 --> 0:30:26.800
<v Speaker 5>rusty to go do you reckon? Mumble buy It? That's

0:30:26.840 --> 0:30:27.280
<v Speaker 5>a good joke.

0:30:27.360 --> 0:30:33.360
<v Speaker 2>That's that seems really is really nicely performed. And you know,

0:30:34.000 --> 0:30:38.800
<v Speaker 2>Anthony michaelhol what a great young child actor he is.

0:30:38.880 --> 0:30:41.760
<v Speaker 2>He goes on and works with you know, John Hughes

0:30:41.800 --> 0:30:45.360
<v Speaker 2>and Breakfast Club and sixteen Candles and Weird Science and yeah,

0:30:45.760 --> 0:30:48.280
<v Speaker 2>he's so like beyond like some of.

0:30:48.320 --> 0:30:53.520
<v Speaker 1>The little touches he gives is so good.

0:30:53.520 --> 0:30:56.280
<v Speaker 2>I think he's one of the best performances from anybody

0:30:56.440 --> 0:30:58.360
<v Speaker 2>that age that I've said.

0:30:58.960 --> 0:31:05.160
<v Speaker 5>He's he's he goes on to do something with ghosts,

0:31:05.400 --> 0:31:06.920
<v Speaker 5>doesn't he like it's a TV show?

0:31:07.880 --> 0:31:10.920
<v Speaker 1>Is that the Recent? Is that the Recent? Ghosts? Seriously

0:31:11.040 --> 0:31:11.480
<v Speaker 1>he's in that?

0:31:11.680 --> 0:31:11.800
<v Speaker 5>Is he?

0:31:11.960 --> 0:31:12.000
<v Speaker 8>Or?

0:31:12.800 --> 0:31:15.720
<v Speaker 5>I think there's some kind of kind he does.

0:31:16.840 --> 0:31:17.560
<v Speaker 1>He does pop up.

0:31:17.680 --> 0:31:19.400
<v Speaker 2>He was in war Machine. Brad Pitt made a movie

0:31:19.400 --> 0:31:21.800
<v Speaker 2>called war Machine years ago and that so he does.

0:31:22.520 --> 0:31:25.200
<v Speaker 2>I mean for this generation, for a generation who you

0:31:25.280 --> 0:31:27.560
<v Speaker 2>know was at the right age for a Breakfast Club

0:31:27.640 --> 0:31:31.000
<v Speaker 2>and sixteen Candles. I mean, Anthony Michael Hall is a

0:31:31.280 --> 0:31:34.560
<v Speaker 2>you know, he's a legend. The producers did want Christy

0:31:34.640 --> 0:31:38.240
<v Speaker 2>Brinkley to be naked for that scene she refused good

0:31:38.280 --> 0:31:41.080
<v Speaker 2>on her, And so what happened, Like I said, it

0:31:41.160 --> 0:31:43.200
<v Speaker 2>was supposed to be kind of told from Rusty's point

0:31:43.200 --> 0:31:46.200
<v Speaker 2>of view, and then when chevy Chase signs on, you know,

0:31:46.240 --> 0:31:48.520
<v Speaker 2>he's a massive star coming out of Saturday Night Live,

0:31:48.760 --> 0:31:50.600
<v Speaker 2>They're going to go, well, nothing's going to be funny

0:31:50.640 --> 0:31:52.840
<v Speaker 2>than seeing it from you know, chevy Chase's point of view.

0:31:53.440 --> 0:31:55.280
<v Speaker 1>So they changed they changes.

0:31:55.640 --> 0:31:57.640
<v Speaker 2>Was supposed to be kind of a more innocent, you know,

0:31:57.880 --> 0:31:59.920
<v Speaker 2>a girl in the back of a car and rusting

0:32:00.040 --> 0:32:03.560
<v Speaker 2>back of his car to you know, a supermodel, and

0:32:03.680 --> 0:32:05.320
<v Speaker 2>it gets it gets a little bit creepy.

0:32:05.440 --> 0:32:08.040
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, So what's really funny is my wife We're watching it,

0:32:08.160 --> 0:32:11.200
<v Speaker 5>and my wife just goes is Christy Brinkley And I'm

0:32:11.280 --> 0:32:14.000
<v Speaker 5>just like, I don't know who that is. She's she's

0:32:14.040 --> 0:32:15.959
<v Speaker 5>a model, and I'm like, okay, crazy.

0:32:16.600 --> 0:32:19.040
<v Speaker 2>So she's a model, and she married Billy Joel so

0:32:19.080 --> 0:32:22.320
<v Speaker 2>that they were married. The song I'm much if you

0:32:22.360 --> 0:32:25.360
<v Speaker 2>know the song Up Tang Girl, that's that was read

0:32:25.360 --> 0:32:29.320
<v Speaker 2>about Christie Brinkley. Oh wow, yeah, she's a major. She's

0:32:29.360 --> 0:32:32.800
<v Speaker 2>a major model. I'm not sure like this was like

0:32:32.920 --> 0:32:35.480
<v Speaker 2>on her way up to becoming the star that she became,

0:32:35.680 --> 0:32:40.520
<v Speaker 2>or exactly whereabouts how established he was when she made this.

0:32:40.920 --> 0:32:44.360
<v Speaker 2>One other thing that we'll mention sometimes what happens in

0:32:44.440 --> 0:32:47.240
<v Speaker 2>this podcast, and I always remind people our audience dying

0:32:47.360 --> 0:32:50.200
<v Speaker 2>is I'm talking to somebody who has just seen this

0:32:50.360 --> 0:32:54.960
<v Speaker 2>classic movie. So you just saw it last night. Sometimes

0:32:55.160 --> 0:32:57.640
<v Speaker 2>what has happened over over the podcast is that as

0:32:57.680 --> 0:33:00.240
<v Speaker 2>we're talking about it, you kind of go, ah, actually, okay,

0:33:00.440 --> 0:33:03.280
<v Speaker 2>well yeah, maybe maybe I'll give it another go, or

0:33:03.280 --> 0:33:05.240
<v Speaker 2>maybe I think a little bit I may not watch

0:33:05.240 --> 0:33:07.160
<v Speaker 2>it again, but I feel a little bit differently that

0:33:07.280 --> 0:33:09.400
<v Speaker 2>might happen. It might not before I try to kind of,

0:33:09.480 --> 0:33:13.920
<v Speaker 2>you know, like seduce you into into enjoying this maybe

0:33:13.920 --> 0:33:17.320
<v Speaker 2>even more that there's a point that Howard Raimer said

0:33:17.320 --> 0:33:20.000
<v Speaker 2>that he was not not proud of, you know, in hindsight,

0:33:20.320 --> 0:33:22.320
<v Speaker 2>and that's the when they take the wrong exit and

0:33:22.480 --> 0:33:26.200
<v Speaker 2>going to the East Saint Louis and said it basically

0:33:26.560 --> 0:33:30.200
<v Speaker 2>is all the worst stereotypes of African Americans. You know,

0:33:30.320 --> 0:33:33.200
<v Speaker 2>they you know, they they get ripped off, they get

0:33:33.240 --> 0:33:36.480
<v Speaker 2>the hub cap stole, and he said that's that's that's

0:33:36.560 --> 0:33:39.440
<v Speaker 2>the scene that he regrets the most in the whole film.

0:33:40.280 --> 0:33:43.480
<v Speaker 5>It's it does put a bad taste in your mouth

0:33:43.520 --> 0:33:48.880
<v Speaker 5>watching it in today's like, yeah, I've gone back. I've

0:33:48.920 --> 0:33:53.560
<v Speaker 5>watched Ninja Turtles, right, and I feel like they do

0:33:54.000 --> 0:33:58.040
<v Speaker 5>a really good ghetto scene in that without using like

0:33:58.200 --> 0:34:02.120
<v Speaker 5>stereotypes of using like Black America or anything. They actually

0:34:02.320 --> 0:34:06.360
<v Speaker 5>use it's just kids. Yeah, it doesn't matter what race

0:34:06.400 --> 0:34:10.520
<v Speaker 5>they are or anything. They show the delinquency can be

0:34:10.840 --> 0:34:15.560
<v Speaker 5>anything and people. And I'm like, Ninja Turtles got it right?

0:34:15.840 --> 0:34:18.080
<v Speaker 5>How crazy? That's like ninety three.

0:34:19.040 --> 0:34:20.160
<v Speaker 1>The original Turtles are you?

0:34:21.239 --> 0:34:25.200
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, like the original Ninja Turtles And it's so it's

0:34:25.280 --> 0:34:28.520
<v Speaker 5>so cool to watch. And yeah, Casey Jones like just

0:34:29.760 --> 0:34:32.440
<v Speaker 5>just in a park and that these and yeah, it's

0:34:32.520 --> 0:34:36.480
<v Speaker 5>it's got there's no racial connotations whatsoever. It's just you

0:34:36.600 --> 0:34:39.040
<v Speaker 5>feel gritty and that type of thing. And they're like, wow,

0:34:39.239 --> 0:34:42.279
<v Speaker 5>this is what a cool movie to be so woke.

0:34:43.160 --> 0:34:43.719
<v Speaker 5>It's weird.

0:34:43.920 --> 0:34:46.000
<v Speaker 1>Well done, Ninja Turtles. There is a lot to like

0:34:46.040 --> 0:34:46.640
<v Speaker 1>about this movie.

0:34:46.680 --> 0:34:49.279
<v Speaker 2>And I mean from the get go, I give them

0:34:49.280 --> 0:34:51.239
<v Speaker 2>the good mood as soon as I hear Holiday Road

0:34:51.640 --> 0:34:54.760
<v Speaker 2>and the postcards and and the you know, the imagery

0:34:55.880 --> 0:34:58.839
<v Speaker 2>is great. Written by Lindsay Buckingham remember of Flipper Mac

0:34:59.080 --> 0:35:00.799
<v Speaker 2>and she really red holl A Road.

0:35:00.880 --> 0:35:03.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah yeah, oh this is okay, that's crazy.

0:35:04.360 --> 0:35:06.840
<v Speaker 5>I'm not a big Chevy Shapes fan, so we're probably

0:35:06.880 --> 0:35:09.799
<v Speaker 5>getting into the realm of like why I didn't watch it. Yeah,

0:35:10.680 --> 0:35:12.759
<v Speaker 5>well I haven't seen it before. I'm not not a

0:35:12.880 --> 0:35:17.600
<v Speaker 5>huge one. I love Chevy in Community. I think that's

0:35:17.640 --> 0:35:20.040
<v Speaker 5>one of the best series in the series, and he

0:35:20.200 --> 0:35:23.359
<v Speaker 5>is one of the greatest characters in that. Finding out

0:35:23.400 --> 0:35:25.640
<v Speaker 5>a little bit more about him, like what he was

0:35:25.760 --> 0:35:28.640
<v Speaker 5>like on set and stuff from people that are reminiscing

0:35:28.680 --> 0:35:31.120
<v Speaker 5>about filming that, and you go, okay, he's a bit.

0:35:31.280 --> 0:35:34.719
<v Speaker 1>Not a cool guy. Not a cool yes, troublesome.

0:35:34.920 --> 0:35:39.600
<v Speaker 2>So he Christopher Columbus actually had a meeting with Chevy Chase,

0:35:39.800 --> 0:35:41.680
<v Speaker 2>you know, the great Christopher Columbus, not the guy who

0:35:42.120 --> 0:35:43.200
<v Speaker 2>found in America.

0:35:44.880 --> 0:35:47.160
<v Speaker 5>Mistook Native American people for India.

0:35:49.360 --> 0:35:52.120
<v Speaker 1>Yes, not that one. We won't put that on him.

0:35:52.920 --> 0:35:55.600
<v Speaker 2>Chris comas the director, he had a meeting with Chevy Chase,

0:35:55.600 --> 0:35:58.360
<v Speaker 2>so he was in line to direct Lampon's vacation it

0:35:58.440 --> 0:36:00.799
<v Speaker 2>might have been Christmas vacation even and then he had

0:36:00.840 --> 0:36:04.239
<v Speaker 2>such a horrible experience with him. He pulled out. He said,

0:36:04.239 --> 0:36:07.359
<v Speaker 2>I can't, I can't work with this man. And John

0:36:07.440 --> 0:36:10.560
<v Speaker 2>Hughes made it up to him and said, Okay, I apologize,

0:36:10.920 --> 0:36:12.200
<v Speaker 2>I'll make it up to you. I've got another movie

0:36:12.239 --> 0:36:14.200
<v Speaker 2>I want you to direct. That movie was Home Alone,

0:36:15.000 --> 0:36:17.200
<v Speaker 2>like one of the massive, the biggest movie the year

0:36:17.280 --> 0:36:20.719
<v Speaker 2>and still a classic. But the scene where they were

0:36:20.800 --> 0:36:23.439
<v Speaker 2>like throwing you know, when they back out, very early

0:36:23.520 --> 0:36:25.759
<v Speaker 2>scene after the he backs out of the home and

0:36:25.800 --> 0:36:29.000
<v Speaker 2>the suitcases off four down. Yeah, they wanted him to

0:36:29.000 --> 0:36:30.880
<v Speaker 2>shoot that, you know, quite a few times, and he

0:36:31.040 --> 0:36:33.439
<v Speaker 2>got he got pissed off and started throwing suitcases around

0:36:33.640 --> 0:36:37.400
<v Speaker 2>at the crew and everyone, and yeah, Howard Ramis had

0:36:37.440 --> 0:36:40.040
<v Speaker 2>to take him aside and say, if you ever embarrassed

0:36:40.080 --> 0:36:41.520
<v Speaker 2>me like that in front of the crew again, or

0:36:41.560 --> 0:36:43.000
<v Speaker 2>taught to me like that in front of the crew again,

0:36:43.120 --> 0:36:47.120
<v Speaker 2>you know, like just ripped through him and said apparently

0:36:47.160 --> 0:36:49.840
<v Speaker 2>after that he actually he caught him on his behavior.

0:36:50.520 --> 0:36:51.920
<v Speaker 1>He was he was pretty good.

0:36:52.000 --> 0:36:56.160
<v Speaker 2>But the stories I've heard about yeah, Chevy Chase, he's

0:36:56.320 --> 0:36:59.640
<v Speaker 2>not a particularly likable guy and he.

0:37:00.200 --> 0:37:03.320
<v Speaker 5>The So we're watching that scene and my wife instantly goes,

0:37:03.880 --> 0:37:11.960
<v Speaker 5>there's room in the back for the luggage, and I like, yeah,

0:37:12.040 --> 0:37:13.239
<v Speaker 5>but the gag doesn't work.

0:37:13.360 --> 0:37:17.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean, yeah, that's easily explainable from a comedian.

0:37:17.200 --> 0:37:17.879
<v Speaker 2>The gag doesn't work.

0:37:23.440 --> 0:37:26.600
<v Speaker 5>It's such as it's full of gags. I felt like,

0:37:27.080 --> 0:37:29.279
<v Speaker 5>you know, sometimes I watch movies and I feel like

0:37:29.400 --> 0:37:33.080
<v Speaker 5>a comedian had something to do with the writing, because

0:37:33.160 --> 0:37:36.719
<v Speaker 5>there's jokes. There's a joke and it doesn't have much

0:37:36.800 --> 0:37:40.680
<v Speaker 5>to do with the movie. There's the crowbard a joking

0:37:40.719 --> 0:37:44.000
<v Speaker 5>because someone's gone this bit is funny, let's put it

0:37:44.080 --> 0:37:45.719
<v Speaker 5>in the movie. And I feel like there's a few

0:37:45.760 --> 0:37:49.320
<v Speaker 5>of those in the movie. There's a there's a few bits.

0:37:49.600 --> 0:37:50.520
<v Speaker 1>Well it's funny.

0:37:50.560 --> 0:37:55.240
<v Speaker 2>Because they took this movie to the famous and powerful

0:37:55.360 --> 0:37:58.480
<v Speaker 2>Jeffrey Katzenberg, who was a paramount at the time, and

0:37:58.600 --> 0:38:02.080
<v Speaker 2>he rejected it because he said it's too episodic. And

0:38:02.200 --> 0:38:05.560
<v Speaker 2>their reply was, yeah, it's a road movie. Like that's

0:38:05.600 --> 0:38:08.560
<v Speaker 2>almost by definition what it is. You go from place

0:38:08.760 --> 0:38:11.879
<v Speaker 2>to place to place to place. That's how Yeah, that's

0:38:11.920 --> 0:38:14.400
<v Speaker 2>how road movies work. It's how travel works. Then they

0:38:14.480 --> 0:38:16.400
<v Speaker 2>do it Warner Brothers. They got it straight away, and

0:38:16.880 --> 0:38:19.439
<v Speaker 2>you know, it was a major hit. But I kind

0:38:19.440 --> 0:38:22.400
<v Speaker 2>of would you know, and we're coming from different experiences,

0:38:22.440 --> 0:38:25.600
<v Speaker 2>because I literally watched this in the eighties, you know,

0:38:25.719 --> 0:38:27.239
<v Speaker 2>maybe not in like I said, the cinema, but on

0:38:27.360 --> 0:38:30.880
<v Speaker 2>videotape and became like a massive thing that everyone around

0:38:30.920 --> 0:38:32.920
<v Speaker 2>me just quoted. You know that, and three a Megos

0:38:32.960 --> 0:38:36.000
<v Speaker 2>and a few other movies, and but nothing ever felt

0:38:36.080 --> 0:38:38.520
<v Speaker 2>particularly a shoehorn. And I kind of like there's some

0:38:38.680 --> 0:38:43.400
<v Speaker 2>sweet moments that are just effortlessly funny with that. Sometimes

0:38:43.480 --> 0:38:46.400
<v Speaker 2>they hinge on on a gag, but sometimes they just

0:38:46.520 --> 0:38:50.000
<v Speaker 2>it's a performance based Like Anthony Michael Hall, let's have

0:38:50.040 --> 0:38:52.359
<v Speaker 2>a listen to him sharing a beer with his dad.

0:38:53.200 --> 0:38:55.080
<v Speaker 7>You know, maybe she'd be a nicer person she had

0:38:55.120 --> 0:38:58.200
<v Speaker 7>a family of her own, you know, instead of always

0:38:58.239 --> 0:38:58.520
<v Speaker 7>having a.

0:38:58.560 --> 0:38:59.879
<v Speaker 5>Glamor on someone else.

0:39:02.480 --> 0:39:12.279
<v Speaker 4>You're a pretty bright little guy. Excuse me, man, it's okay.

0:39:14.960 --> 0:39:15.680
<v Speaker 3>You know what I wanna do.

0:39:18.840 --> 0:39:20.680
<v Speaker 7>When I was your age, my dad shared a beer

0:39:20.719 --> 0:39:22.839
<v Speaker 7>with me, and I thought it was not the best

0:39:22.880 --> 0:39:23.520
<v Speaker 7>thing in the world.

0:39:34.640 --> 0:39:34.879
<v Speaker 5>Eh.

0:39:36.000 --> 0:39:37.400
<v Speaker 4>When I was a boy, it's just about.

0:39:37.160 --> 0:39:40.880
<v Speaker 7>Every summer we take a vacation, and you know, in

0:39:40.960 --> 0:39:47.520
<v Speaker 7>eighteen years we never had fun. But now I have

0:39:47.600 --> 0:39:50.440
<v Speaker 7>my own family, and well we're on our own vacation

0:39:50.560 --> 0:39:55.319
<v Speaker 7>and you know something Russ what d We're gonna have fun?

0:39:56.400 --> 0:40:01.799
<v Speaker 4>Uh, you gonna have fun.

0:40:04.040 --> 0:40:06.600
<v Speaker 2>I love that for two reasons. One, it's funny that

0:40:06.719 --> 0:40:09.560
<v Speaker 2>you know, this kid checked me. It also to be honest,

0:40:09.960 --> 0:40:13.840
<v Speaker 2>like I allowed my you know, allowed invertcom as my

0:40:14.960 --> 0:40:18.280
<v Speaker 2>my sixteen year old to like have a beer at Christmas,

0:40:18.360 --> 0:40:21.600
<v Speaker 2>you know, like you know, with with with the family. Yeah,

0:40:21.960 --> 0:40:26.080
<v Speaker 2>and I gave him a corona and he like held

0:40:26.160 --> 0:40:28.960
<v Speaker 2>that corona. It wasn't his fucking first corona.

0:40:28.960 --> 0:40:29.920
<v Speaker 1>I can take the.

0:40:31.800 --> 0:40:33.719
<v Speaker 2>Way he held it. And then he drunk it. And

0:40:33.840 --> 0:40:40.160
<v Speaker 2>he drunk it like Rusty Griswold. Okay, okay, yeah, okay,

0:40:41.360 --> 0:40:43.719
<v Speaker 2>I think you've shown something there to me.

0:40:44.360 --> 0:40:48.800
<v Speaker 5>But it's not too good stuff at the back of

0:40:48.880 --> 0:40:51.759
<v Speaker 5>the come. But I know what it's like.

0:40:52.160 --> 0:40:53.759
<v Speaker 2>And this is when I you know, I love that

0:40:53.880 --> 0:40:55.959
<v Speaker 2>movies keep growing and you go watch them at different

0:40:56.000 --> 0:40:58.120
<v Speaker 2>ages and they mean different things, and and you know,

0:40:58.320 --> 0:41:00.320
<v Speaker 2>I saw it from I found it was funny that

0:41:00.400 --> 0:41:02.080
<v Speaker 2>Rusty kind of chug the beer, you know, when I

0:41:02.160 --> 0:41:04.680
<v Speaker 2>watched it when I was younger. But now what I

0:41:04.760 --> 0:41:07.959
<v Speaker 2>see is a father trying to bond with his child,

0:41:08.040 --> 0:41:11.520
<v Speaker 2>and it can be awkward, like trying to actively bond

0:41:11.600 --> 0:41:13.880
<v Speaker 2>with your child like it. You know, bonding with your

0:41:13.920 --> 0:41:17.600
<v Speaker 2>child happens kind of naturally just through you know, guidance

0:41:17.680 --> 0:41:20.000
<v Speaker 2>and being around each other and the love that you

0:41:20.120 --> 0:41:23.640
<v Speaker 2>have and all that. But when you actively try to bond,

0:41:23.920 --> 0:41:25.759
<v Speaker 2>you know, verbally, try to bond that we're going to

0:41:25.800 --> 0:41:29.000
<v Speaker 2>have a conversation. Now it's awkward, like it's awk good.

0:41:29.239 --> 0:41:33.200
<v Speaker 2>You don't really have those conversations elsewhere, you know, at

0:41:33.239 --> 0:41:36.480
<v Speaker 2>that level where there's emotionally like you might you might

0:41:36.520 --> 0:41:39.080
<v Speaker 2>try to connect with somebody, but you may not. The

0:41:39.160 --> 0:41:41.520
<v Speaker 2>emotional connection is not necessarily there because you might go, Okay,

0:41:41.520 --> 0:41:43.120
<v Speaker 2>it's a bloke at work and we should be you know,

0:41:43.320 --> 0:41:45.239
<v Speaker 2>I'll reach out, Okay, we're not friends. Okay, I'll move

0:41:45.320 --> 0:41:48.920
<v Speaker 2>under somebody else, you know, I just won't. I'll avoid

0:41:49.000 --> 0:41:50.919
<v Speaker 2>him in the corralors or whatever it might be where

0:41:51.000 --> 0:41:53.480
<v Speaker 2>this is like, this is my son and I'm trying to,

0:41:54.400 --> 0:41:57.440
<v Speaker 2>you know, ask about the music they're listening to or

0:41:57.440 --> 0:41:59.400
<v Speaker 2>whatever it might be, and it's there's a movie I

0:41:59.480 --> 0:42:01.759
<v Speaker 2>watched recent and we did it on the podcast with

0:42:01.880 --> 0:42:04.200
<v Speaker 2>Olivia Deeble called Eighth Grade. I'm not sure if you've

0:42:04.239 --> 0:42:07.400
<v Speaker 2>seen that, but there's a scene that just blew me away.

0:42:07.480 --> 0:42:09.080
<v Speaker 2>And I just I was watching it by myself a

0:42:09.120 --> 0:42:11.680
<v Speaker 2>few months ago in the hotel room in Canberra, and

0:42:11.760 --> 0:42:14.080
<v Speaker 2>I just bawled. It's like a father trying to like

0:42:14.480 --> 0:42:17.759
<v Speaker 2>connect with his Chinese finally makes a connection and it's

0:42:17.800 --> 0:42:21.840
<v Speaker 2>just like, ah, hero moment and and that's this Scene's

0:42:21.880 --> 0:42:24.000
<v Speaker 2>not that, but it plays in that area where it's

0:42:24.200 --> 0:42:29.560
<v Speaker 2>he it's Chevy Chase, Grant Clark, Griswold trying to connect

0:42:29.560 --> 0:42:32.200
<v Speaker 2>with Rusty and put him in charge and like, you know,

0:42:32.360 --> 0:42:34.360
<v Speaker 2>say you're you're in charge of you know, I'm going

0:42:34.440 --> 0:42:37.160
<v Speaker 2>to go and find a mechanic and so you're in charge.

0:42:37.160 --> 0:42:39.759
<v Speaker 2>And he's trying to have this qui little bonding moment

0:42:39.760 --> 0:42:41.360
<v Speaker 2>before he heads off, and I just think it's I

0:42:41.400 --> 0:42:42.280
<v Speaker 2>think it's really beautiful.

0:42:42.440 --> 0:42:48.120
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, it's It has got some some pretty redeeming moments

0:42:48.280 --> 0:42:51.920
<v Speaker 5>of Chevy's character, of Griswold being a dad, being a

0:42:52.000 --> 0:42:57.000
<v Speaker 5>cool and genuinely exactly what you're saying. That core of

0:42:57.120 --> 0:43:00.680
<v Speaker 5>the movie. I just want this to be perfect, and

0:43:00.800 --> 0:43:04.440
<v Speaker 5>it's being the complete opposite is brilliant. It's such a

0:43:04.480 --> 0:43:08.800
<v Speaker 5>good that's what makes the movie. That's just him trying

0:43:09.120 --> 0:43:12.800
<v Speaker 5>way too hard, and then it just not not playing

0:43:12.880 --> 0:43:16.200
<v Speaker 5>out the way that he wants it to. There's the

0:43:16.280 --> 0:43:19.480
<v Speaker 5>scene when they do go into a bar and he's

0:43:19.520 --> 0:43:22.000
<v Speaker 5>being a bit cheeky and letting his hair down and

0:43:22.120 --> 0:43:26.279
<v Speaker 5>he's trying to be a bit of a smarter to

0:43:26.360 --> 0:43:28.680
<v Speaker 5>the bartender, who's I think is trying to fix something

0:43:28.760 --> 0:43:32.680
<v Speaker 5>under the sink, and he's like, come on, come on, idiot,

0:43:32.840 --> 0:43:35.320
<v Speaker 5>giddy and give me a beer, and then he pulls

0:43:35.360 --> 0:43:42.880
<v Speaker 5>out I think it's a fake barrel Shoka and I

0:43:43.239 --> 0:43:46.680
<v Speaker 5>it's it's such a good scene, but then the closer

0:43:46.760 --> 0:43:50.440
<v Speaker 5>of that, the killer gag is excuse me, kind of

0:43:50.640 --> 0:43:55.360
<v Speaker 5>just trouble you for a drink? Plea is so funny,

0:43:56.040 --> 0:43:59.040
<v Speaker 5>and I'm like, ah, that's a bit. That's a good bit.

0:43:59.239 --> 0:44:02.319
<v Speaker 5>That is a that just seems like a really well

0:44:02.920 --> 0:44:07.319
<v Speaker 5>written joke. Yeah, and I feel like someone, I feel

0:44:07.360 --> 0:44:09.880
<v Speaker 5>like a comedian had something to do with that.

0:44:10.640 --> 0:44:10.839
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:44:11.680 --> 0:44:14.160
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely, And there and there there are real jokes in there,

0:44:14.160 --> 0:44:17.880
<v Speaker 2>and then they're just a little performance performances throughout this movie,

0:44:18.080 --> 0:44:21.320
<v Speaker 2>not just by the Prince with the family, but you

0:44:21.440 --> 0:44:23.520
<v Speaker 2>have like at the start, Eugene Levy, you know, people

0:44:23.520 --> 0:44:25.440
<v Speaker 2>will know from Ship's Creek and you know, Waiting for

0:44:25.520 --> 0:44:27.360
<v Speaker 2>Gunman and all those films.

0:44:27.440 --> 0:44:30.719
<v Speaker 5>I call him the dad from an American Pie, the.

0:44:30.800 --> 0:44:35.720
<v Speaker 2>Deaf American Pie. He's like, yeah, he's iconic and brilliant.

0:44:36.000 --> 0:44:38.160
<v Speaker 2>I think the first time I ever saw him, and

0:44:38.960 --> 0:44:41.680
<v Speaker 2>he's so good. Like I'm not sure if there's any

0:44:41.760 --> 0:44:45.800
<v Speaker 2>gags in that scene, but I could watch that so

0:44:45.960 --> 0:44:46.560
<v Speaker 2>many times.

0:44:46.600 --> 0:44:49.320
<v Speaker 1>It's just like his reaction of like, I know what happened.

0:44:49.560 --> 0:44:50.200
<v Speaker 1>It didn't come in?

0:44:52.400 --> 0:44:56.759
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, yeah what he calls over the mechanic and says

0:44:57.560 --> 0:45:02.120
<v Speaker 5>he's looking for he's light blue sports car. Yeah, hangers, No,

0:45:02.760 --> 0:45:05.719
<v Speaker 5>I don't know it is, And that his face of

0:45:05.920 --> 0:45:10.960
<v Speaker 5>him trying to really like car sales minute is so funny.

0:45:12.560 --> 0:45:17.520
<v Speaker 5>What doesn't make sense, obviously, is why why does why

0:45:17.600 --> 0:45:20.879
<v Speaker 5>do they do it trading with the car and then

0:45:21.040 --> 0:45:27.000
<v Speaker 5>instantly crush it like that, if you rubbish.

0:45:26.760 --> 0:45:28.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to get I'm going to give the same

0:45:28.239 --> 0:45:32.520
<v Speaker 1>answer you gave your wife, because the joke works, The

0:45:33.960 --> 0:45:36.440
<v Speaker 1>gag needs to work. I mean I.

0:45:38.640 --> 0:45:41.000
<v Speaker 2>Did laugh at the idea like life was, you know,

0:45:41.160 --> 0:45:43.400
<v Speaker 2>like I don't understand, like you know, oh man, and

0:45:43.719 --> 0:45:45.840
<v Speaker 2>everyone's going to say this. Whatever age you get to,

0:45:45.880 --> 0:45:48.040
<v Speaker 2>you're always going to say this. Our kids will say

0:45:48.080 --> 0:45:50.400
<v Speaker 2>this when they're older. Life was simpler then and you

0:45:50.440 --> 0:45:53.160
<v Speaker 2>could probably like, yeah, bring your car in. You know,

0:45:53.320 --> 0:45:55.400
<v Speaker 2>it's all been arranged, traded in new car.

0:45:55.520 --> 0:45:59.319
<v Speaker 1>There it is where you know now it's there's much

0:45:59.400 --> 0:46:01.520
<v Speaker 1>more paperwork to be done, and everything feels a bit

0:46:01.560 --> 0:46:04.600
<v Speaker 1>more complicated. But that said, that said, it was you know,

0:46:04.719 --> 0:46:07.440
<v Speaker 1>it's done very quickly and obviously.

0:46:07.560 --> 0:46:09.360
<v Speaker 2>To make the joke work. I mean the fact that

0:46:09.440 --> 0:46:14.520
<v Speaker 2>they drive the car back out of the pancake is

0:46:14.960 --> 0:46:15.600
<v Speaker 2>he's pretty.

0:46:15.600 --> 0:46:19.359
<v Speaker 5>Hilarious, absolutely, and he goes to open the car door

0:46:19.680 --> 0:46:25.120
<v Speaker 5>and it's like the gag. The gag is there purely

0:46:25.400 --> 0:46:28.160
<v Speaker 5>I think to let you know, this is the humor

0:46:28.200 --> 0:46:31.000
<v Speaker 5>to expect for this movie, absolutely, because it's the first

0:46:31.160 --> 0:46:34.839
<v Speaker 5>big gag and you go, okay, this is the level

0:46:34.880 --> 0:46:38.880
<v Speaker 5>of silly that we're and you can it's not. This

0:46:39.120 --> 0:46:42.040
<v Speaker 5>is why I think Chevy pulls into a very weird

0:46:42.200 --> 0:46:45.960
<v Speaker 5>category for me, because he's not quite is it Leslie Nielsen,

0:46:46.040 --> 0:46:50.399
<v Speaker 5>he's not quite spoof ye silly weird comedy, and he's

0:46:50.520 --> 0:46:55.200
<v Speaker 5>not that that jokingly silly, but in real base, in

0:46:55.280 --> 0:46:59.160
<v Speaker 5>real life comedy, he's a mixture of in between. Yeah,

0:46:59.640 --> 0:47:02.120
<v Speaker 5>but so there's a lot of real life elements but

0:47:02.239 --> 0:47:03.040
<v Speaker 5>not spoof.

0:47:03.400 --> 0:47:04.799
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Americans do this time.

0:47:05.000 --> 0:47:07.200
<v Speaker 2>This is not an uncommon kind of genre for Americans

0:47:07.560 --> 0:47:12.000
<v Speaker 2>doing comedy, where in Australia we kind of, I don't know,

0:47:12.480 --> 0:47:14.759
<v Speaker 2>sometimes we're trying to emulate what the Americans do with

0:47:15.040 --> 0:47:15.840
<v Speaker 2>that style of comedy.

0:47:15.880 --> 0:47:17.279
<v Speaker 1>That'sn't since in the work here.

0:47:17.520 --> 0:47:20.640
<v Speaker 2>But there is that They're they're good at still being

0:47:20.719 --> 0:47:27.080
<v Speaker 2>real but still having clear jokes. You know, yeah, they're

0:47:27.280 --> 0:47:31.440
<v Speaker 2>you know, within that world and them still kind of working.

0:47:31.560 --> 0:47:33.880
<v Speaker 2>And and I mean there are so many I mean

0:47:33.880 --> 0:47:36.239
<v Speaker 2>I love thee the barbecue scene when they got a

0:47:36.280 --> 0:47:39.160
<v Speaker 2>cousin Eddies Randy quaidh legend.

0:47:39.120 --> 0:47:45.200
<v Speaker 5>More more, Randy Quaid more. That's that is an underutilized

0:47:45.280 --> 0:47:49.800
<v Speaker 5>character in this movie. He is ridiculously funny. I loved

0:47:50.080 --> 0:47:55.080
<v Speaker 5>every scene he was in, and almost every scene he's

0:47:55.239 --> 0:47:59.040
<v Speaker 5>not in when he's in the vicinity is he's got

0:47:59.640 --> 0:48:02.960
<v Speaker 5>a four print in it somehow. Yeah, and it's funny.

0:48:03.680 --> 0:48:07.920
<v Speaker 5>He's he. I would have loved to have seen almost

0:48:07.960 --> 0:48:08.960
<v Speaker 5>a Randy Quaid movie.

0:48:09.360 --> 0:48:10.239
<v Speaker 1>Well, they did do it.

0:48:10.280 --> 0:48:12.480
<v Speaker 2>They did do a cousin Eddy movie, which like years

0:48:12.520 --> 0:48:15.120
<v Speaker 2>and years later, it didn't really work, but he is

0:48:15.160 --> 0:48:18.640
<v Speaker 2>in Christmas vacation. I don't for a memory, he's in

0:48:18.719 --> 0:48:21.880
<v Speaker 2>European vacation, but he's in Christmas vacation. But yeah, he

0:48:22.040 --> 0:48:24.120
<v Speaker 2>was a bit of a like he almost stole the show.

0:48:24.239 --> 0:48:26.640
<v Speaker 2>Like he's he's as quotable. But when he gives it,

0:48:27.040 --> 0:48:28.920
<v Speaker 2>you know, but you can use a cold one, Clark,

0:48:28.960 --> 0:48:31.759
<v Speaker 2>and you know he's already junked him with the beer

0:48:31.800 --> 0:48:34.759
<v Speaker 2>and he cracks over in a can he gives the

0:48:35.239 --> 0:48:38.040
<v Speaker 2>beers has been drinking out of It's so good.

0:48:38.600 --> 0:48:41.560
<v Speaker 8>My wife, My wife looked at me and she goes, you,

0:48:46.280 --> 0:48:49.520
<v Speaker 8>not a comment, dame, not a compliment, so insulting.

0:48:49.880 --> 0:48:54.759
<v Speaker 1>It really is, it really is. But the whole this

0:48:55.000 --> 0:48:56.120
<v Speaker 1>is this.

0:48:56.520 --> 0:48:58.120
<v Speaker 5>I feel like I'm going to give you a little

0:48:58.120 --> 0:48:59.520
<v Speaker 5>bit of light at the end of the tunnel on

0:48:59.560 --> 0:49:02.799
<v Speaker 5>this line. So yeah, I enjoyed. I enjoyed the movie

0:49:03.040 --> 0:49:04.839
<v Speaker 5>enough for it to be like it's a good movie.

0:49:05.160 --> 0:49:09.840
<v Speaker 5>I didn't like absolutely love it, but I love I

0:49:09.960 --> 0:49:13.960
<v Speaker 5>love John Candy, John Candy growing up, Uncle Buck, so

0:49:14.120 --> 0:49:17.280
<v Speaker 5>many movies where he's just absolutely brilliant, And I've always

0:49:17.320 --> 0:49:20.040
<v Speaker 5>loved John Candy movies. And it was cool to see

0:49:20.080 --> 0:49:24.200
<v Speaker 5>John little appearance in this one. Yeah, and I always

0:49:24.320 --> 0:49:25.960
<v Speaker 5>pause movies. I don't know if you do this, but

0:49:26.080 --> 0:49:30.880
<v Speaker 5>we pause movies and we have a chat about our thoughts,

0:49:31.280 --> 0:49:34.000
<v Speaker 5>not not particularly on the movie, but it could be.

0:49:35.120 --> 0:49:37.120
<v Speaker 5>So we paused it. John Candy pops up and we're

0:49:37.200 --> 0:49:39.800
<v Speaker 5>just like we going to this fifteen minute yan about

0:49:39.880 --> 0:49:44.120
<v Speaker 5>how there's no big guys, big funny guys in movies anymore.

0:49:45.000 --> 0:49:48.040
<v Speaker 5>That we went through a good phase there where there

0:49:48.160 --> 0:49:52.840
<v Speaker 5>was you know, Don Belushi, John Candy, Jonah Hill in.

0:49:53.400 --> 0:49:55.879
<v Speaker 1>Super Bad, Jonah Hill, Jack Black, I'll give.

0:49:55.760 --> 0:50:01.480
<v Speaker 5>You Jack Black. Yeah, but it's of dried up, you know,

0:50:01.680 --> 0:50:05.319
<v Speaker 5>like it's not and they all seem to lose weight

0:50:05.440 --> 0:50:06.840
<v Speaker 5>and become more serious of it.

0:50:07.600 --> 0:50:10.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and yeah, bring them back.

0:50:10.640 --> 0:50:13.640
<v Speaker 5>I say, probably I'm being biased in this because I.

0:50:15.120 --> 0:50:18.480
<v Speaker 2>But no, I hear, don't trust me, I hear I

0:50:19.719 --> 0:50:24.360
<v Speaker 2>And John Candy is I think so brilliant. And we

0:50:24.440 --> 0:50:27.000
<v Speaker 2>discussed another film you hadn't seen, you haven't seen yet,

0:50:27.440 --> 0:50:30.200
<v Speaker 2>which is Planes, Trains and Automobiles. And we didn't do

0:50:30.239 --> 0:50:34.040
<v Speaker 2>it because Georgie Tourney did that on this podcast that

0:50:34.120 --> 0:50:36.240
<v Speaker 2>we have covered, but it is in my top three films.

0:50:36.280 --> 0:50:40.279
<v Speaker 2>And I think if you love John Candy, plans, trains

0:50:40.320 --> 0:50:41.040
<v Speaker 2>and automobiles.

0:50:41.280 --> 0:50:42.839
<v Speaker 1>Yep, he's gonna blow your mind.

0:50:43.960 --> 0:50:47.960
<v Speaker 5>Like, here's the thing with that. I don't like Steve Martin,

0:50:48.760 --> 0:50:54.680
<v Speaker 5>not don't like. I'm using too strong a words. So

0:50:55.000 --> 0:50:59.200
<v Speaker 5>Steve Martin has never been like really funny to me.

0:50:59.719 --> 0:51:02.480
<v Speaker 5>I've I've watched Murders in the Building recently and I

0:51:02.640 --> 0:51:06.560
<v Speaker 5>absolutely love it, and that's like evoked some some good

0:51:06.600 --> 0:51:11.200
<v Speaker 5>emotions to Steve Martin. Martin short has always been funny.

0:51:11.440 --> 0:51:15.040
<v Speaker 5>Was he in the Mannequin? I think he was in that?

0:51:16.400 --> 0:51:18.680
<v Speaker 1>That was that was McCartney.

0:51:18.960 --> 0:51:26.759
<v Speaker 5>McCartney. Yeah, I always yeah, But I've loved I've loved

0:51:26.760 --> 0:51:29.759
<v Speaker 5>a bunch short movies. But yeah, so Steve Martin, I

0:51:29.840 --> 0:51:32.240
<v Speaker 5>will go back and watch planes, trains and automobiles because

0:51:32.440 --> 0:51:37.359
<v Speaker 5>I like him now. But Chevy, I'm starting to warn

0:51:37.440 --> 0:51:38.920
<v Speaker 5>to well, what what so.

0:51:39.440 --> 0:51:41.400
<v Speaker 1>You're explain James and autobiles? Okay, watch that?

0:51:41.840 --> 0:51:46.279
<v Speaker 2>Watch that that' see Steve Martin, John Candy combination and

0:51:46.400 --> 0:51:48.759
<v Speaker 2>John Candy gives I think like it should look like

0:51:48.920 --> 0:51:51.839
<v Speaker 2>one of Oscart. In my mind, comedy is underrated, as

0:51:51.880 --> 0:51:56.320
<v Speaker 2>you know, but those two together are fucking dynamite. And

0:51:56.719 --> 0:51:59.000
<v Speaker 2>and you're not really supposed to like Steve Martin's Carriagter

0:51:59.040 --> 0:52:00.680
<v Speaker 2>for a while and you kind of eventually going to

0:52:00.719 --> 0:52:01.920
<v Speaker 2>warm to him, and you know, and.

0:52:02.320 --> 0:52:04.919
<v Speaker 1>It's it's beautiful. It's a beautiful movie.

0:52:04.920 --> 0:52:07.160
<v Speaker 2>And it's one of those movies I'm glad to hear.

0:52:07.200 --> 0:52:10.239
<v Speaker 2>I think I hear more people talking about as a

0:52:10.360 --> 0:52:12.719
<v Speaker 2>classic in then over the last ten or so years.

0:52:13.280 --> 0:52:15.680
<v Speaker 2>I shuddered the thing I heard recently that Will Smith

0:52:15.920 --> 0:52:18.680
<v Speaker 2>is looking to remake planes, trains and automobiles, and I'm like,

0:52:19.400 --> 0:52:22.839
<v Speaker 2>keep your fucking dirty hands off. You keep playing trains

0:52:22.840 --> 0:52:24.399
<v Speaker 2>and hoornobiles out of your fucking mouth.

0:52:27.360 --> 0:52:27.840
<v Speaker 5>But it is.

0:52:28.840 --> 0:52:29.279
<v Speaker 1>I love it.

0:52:29.400 --> 0:52:31.560
<v Speaker 2>But then you have to watch Three Amigos because Three

0:52:31.600 --> 0:52:36.000
<v Speaker 2>Amigos is Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Chevy Chase.

0:52:36.280 --> 0:52:39.080
<v Speaker 1>So that will be the test. You're not ready for

0:52:39.160 --> 0:52:40.399
<v Speaker 1>it yet. I don't think you're not ready.

0:52:41.680 --> 0:52:44.080
<v Speaker 5>So I think this is the light at the end

0:52:44.080 --> 0:52:45.640
<v Speaker 5>of the tunnel. Is that I'm going to go and

0:52:45.800 --> 0:52:49.840
<v Speaker 5>watch Fletch. Yep, because I made of mine said that

0:52:49.960 --> 0:52:54.520
<v Speaker 5>that's good. I've been intrigued by Fletch before, like because

0:52:54.640 --> 0:52:57.560
<v Speaker 5>it's it's a is he a p I something like this?

0:52:59.200 --> 0:53:02.839
<v Speaker 5>And I've seen I think I've seen, Like I haven't

0:53:02.840 --> 0:53:05.400
<v Speaker 5>seen any scenes or anything, but I think I've heard gads.

0:53:05.600 --> 0:53:07.920
<v Speaker 5>I can't remember, but I think that this would be

0:53:08.560 --> 0:53:10.759
<v Speaker 5>I think I've seen it in like the background of

0:53:10.840 --> 0:53:13.640
<v Speaker 5>a lound room as I've sort of walked through.

0:53:14.280 --> 0:53:17.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I like I like Fletch.

0:53:17.600 --> 0:53:19.840
<v Speaker 2>But it's interesting what you say about Chevy Chase, because

0:53:20.480 --> 0:53:22.920
<v Speaker 2>outside of National Lampage Vacation, I'm not really sure what

0:53:23.000 --> 0:53:25.360
<v Speaker 2>I do like him in. To be honest, like I

0:53:25.440 --> 0:53:27.759
<v Speaker 2>think he's finding in community, but like when I when

0:53:27.800 --> 0:53:32.480
<v Speaker 2>I came to him in through National Lampeage Vacation as

0:53:32.600 --> 0:53:36.440
<v Speaker 2>Clark w Griswold, like, it's hard for me to kind

0:53:36.480 --> 0:53:38.480
<v Speaker 2>of like shake that off and and to see him

0:53:38.680 --> 0:53:40.839
<v Speaker 2>years later, when I've heard all the stories about him,

0:53:40.840 --> 0:53:42.560
<v Speaker 2>and you know, and I had a friend who kind

0:53:42.560 --> 0:53:45.920
<v Speaker 2>of worked with him and confirmed that, yeah, not a

0:53:46.120 --> 0:53:50.120
<v Speaker 2>not a great guy. And so it's hard for me

0:53:50.239 --> 0:53:53.080
<v Speaker 2>to even enjoy that as much. But I'm happy to

0:53:53.200 --> 0:53:55.960
<v Speaker 2>keep vacation in its own bubble and kind of go.

0:53:56.520 --> 0:53:58.279
<v Speaker 2>It meant a lot to me as a kid. It

0:53:58.320 --> 0:54:01.680
<v Speaker 2>made me laugh. We worried, you know, reultimate or catch

0:54:01.719 --> 0:54:05.160
<v Speaker 2>a beddy. Nothing but the best you know, that's a

0:54:05.239 --> 0:54:05.759
<v Speaker 2>good saying.

0:54:05.960 --> 0:54:15.600
<v Speaker 5>That's a funny the Hamburger Helper Hamburg. I didn't I've

0:54:15.600 --> 0:54:17.680
<v Speaker 5>never heard of this before. But you can tell through

0:54:17.760 --> 0:54:20.120
<v Speaker 5>context of that gag and how quickly they do it,

0:54:20.560 --> 0:54:22.800
<v Speaker 5>you can just tell what what it is. I'm assuming

0:54:22.880 --> 0:54:25.000
<v Speaker 5>it's seafood extender him.

0:54:25.120 --> 0:54:28.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, And that's and that's what I think Australians we've

0:54:28.680 --> 0:54:30.960
<v Speaker 2>got used to doing, where I don't think Americans do

0:54:31.160 --> 0:54:34.360
<v Speaker 2>that for movies that don't involve their culture.

0:54:34.400 --> 0:54:34.600
<v Speaker 1>They did.

0:54:34.760 --> 0:54:37.239
<v Speaker 2>They My impression is they need to be spoon fed.

0:54:37.920 --> 0:54:41.239
<v Speaker 2>Where Australians, because you know, most of the movies they

0:54:41.280 --> 0:54:43.520
<v Speaker 2>watch are American, they get all the references. So when

0:54:44.280 --> 0:54:48.839
<v Speaker 2>you know they get references out in their in their zeitgeist,

0:54:49.440 --> 0:54:52.800
<v Speaker 2>they struggle. They need to be told exactly what it is.

0:54:52.840 --> 0:54:55.080
<v Speaker 2>Where we just kind of work it out. We're gonna go, okay,

0:54:55.200 --> 0:54:58.000
<v Speaker 2>that must be yeah, extended, you know what you said.

0:54:58.239 --> 0:55:01.360
<v Speaker 2>But John Candy kind of came in late because they

0:55:01.440 --> 0:55:04.400
<v Speaker 2>rewrote the ending. They rewrote the ending and he was

0:55:04.440 --> 0:55:06.719
<v Speaker 2>paid a million dollars to do this. And the other

0:55:06.800 --> 0:55:08.480
<v Speaker 2>reason this holds a special place in my heart. I

0:55:08.520 --> 0:55:11.719
<v Speaker 2>remember my mum watching it and seeing John Candy up

0:55:11.719 --> 0:55:14.040
<v Speaker 2>and down at roller coaster and then explaining how good

0:55:14.040 --> 0:55:14.840
<v Speaker 2>the roller coaster was.

0:55:14.920 --> 0:55:16.200
<v Speaker 1>At the end, she.

0:55:17.760 --> 0:55:19.840
<v Speaker 2>Just I remember seeing her shoulders. I was thinking behind her,

0:55:19.840 --> 0:55:23.080
<v Speaker 2>I think or across from her shoulders would have started shaking,

0:55:23.160 --> 0:55:27.880
<v Speaker 2>and she just snorting and laughing so much. And that's

0:55:27.920 --> 0:55:32.440
<v Speaker 2>as I wrote, like a yes, Samuel Johnson writes, these

0:55:33.040 --> 0:55:35.279
<v Speaker 2>has these books where it's a collation of letters that

0:55:35.680 --> 0:55:37.800
<v Speaker 2>people might write to their mums or their fathers, and

0:55:37.840 --> 0:55:40.239
<v Speaker 2>I write to my mom about you know, like it

0:55:40.360 --> 0:55:44.439
<v Speaker 2>was basically watching her watch John Candy on the roller

0:55:44.480 --> 0:55:47.320
<v Speaker 2>coaster nationally MPG vacation was like, oh, I want to

0:55:47.320 --> 0:55:48.000
<v Speaker 2>make people laugh.

0:55:48.400 --> 0:55:50.080
<v Speaker 1>I want to make people laugh like that, you know.

0:55:50.719 --> 0:55:54.400
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, John Canny has a very special place in

0:55:54.480 --> 0:55:57.040
<v Speaker 2>my heart, not just for this film, but for so yeah,

0:55:57.200 --> 0:55:57.920
<v Speaker 2>playing trains.

0:55:58.280 --> 0:56:01.400
<v Speaker 5>You know what's really funny in that Randy Quaid scene.

0:56:01.520 --> 0:56:06.680
<v Speaker 5>I've already quoted that this morning. I've watched it last night,

0:56:08.480 --> 0:56:11.480
<v Speaker 5>and this morning I took my little my little man,

0:56:11.680 --> 0:56:16.960
<v Speaker 5>little Ari to swimming practice. Yep, and it's ten dollars,

0:56:17.120 --> 0:56:20.600
<v Speaker 5>but you've got to pay cash. And I asked my wife,

0:56:21.040 --> 0:56:23.040
<v Speaker 5>do you have any cash on you? As we're walking

0:56:23.120 --> 0:56:25.360
<v Speaker 5>in and she goes, how much do you need? And

0:56:25.440 --> 0:56:36.640
<v Speaker 5>I said fifty two thousand dollars. It's that's funny. That's

0:56:36.680 --> 0:56:40.440
<v Speaker 5>a good scene. That is that is a silly gag.

0:56:41.280 --> 0:56:44.600
<v Speaker 5>I can't stress John Candy. And I was going to say,

0:56:44.640 --> 0:56:47.359
<v Speaker 5>Dennis Quaid, what are they? What's Randy and Dennis Quay They?

0:56:47.800 --> 0:56:50.920
<v Speaker 1>I think I think they are related. Actually it's a

0:56:50.920 --> 0:56:51.279
<v Speaker 1>good question.

0:56:51.480 --> 0:56:54.040
<v Speaker 2>But Z every little joke's like you know, cousin Eddie's

0:56:54.320 --> 0:56:58.000
<v Speaker 2>wife when she says, you know, Eddie says, when the

0:56:58.080 --> 0:56:59.879
<v Speaker 2>bee becomes I can quit one of my night jobs.

0:57:00.960 --> 0:57:04.280
<v Speaker 5>That's so funny. That's such a funny. That's a good line.

0:57:04.640 --> 0:57:08.360
<v Speaker 5>One of my night jobs is a great line. And

0:57:08.640 --> 0:57:13.120
<v Speaker 5>he's doing nothing, which is really funny. And yeah, there's

0:57:13.239 --> 0:57:17.120
<v Speaker 5>just there's so much to it. There's there's how he

0:57:17.240 --> 0:57:20.280
<v Speaker 5>sort of beats around the bush with asking for money

0:57:20.560 --> 0:57:24.520
<v Speaker 5>and then is really insulting to him when he does

0:57:24.640 --> 0:57:28.760
<v Speaker 5>asks for it. I just yeah, I constantly as the

0:57:28.800 --> 0:57:31.360
<v Speaker 5>movie kept progressing, I'm like, he'll pop up again. There's

0:57:31.400 --> 0:57:34.920
<v Speaker 5>no way this guy won't be in this movie again.

0:57:35.080 --> 0:57:37.440
<v Speaker 5>And he just wasn't. Yeah, and I missed it.

0:57:37.960 --> 0:57:41.760
<v Speaker 2>You have also emaging Coco, who is a bit of

0:57:41.800 --> 0:57:44.920
<v Speaker 2>a comedy legend work with since Caesar, almost like a

0:57:44.960 --> 0:57:49.320
<v Speaker 2>Betty White style like legend. In the States, she plays

0:57:49.520 --> 0:57:53.200
<v Speaker 2>Aunt Edna, and her concern was that she thought the

0:57:53.280 --> 0:57:55.760
<v Speaker 2>character was too mean and she wasn't sure if she

0:57:55.840 --> 0:57:58.400
<v Speaker 2>could actually be that mean, and you know, and she

0:57:58.480 --> 0:58:01.720
<v Speaker 2>did also like traveling in cars. But she's very she's

0:58:01.800 --> 0:58:04.240
<v Speaker 2>very funny. I remember kind of hating her watching a bit,

0:58:04.400 --> 0:58:07.400
<v Speaker 2>like hating the character and like kind of going, I

0:58:08.400 --> 0:58:10.760
<v Speaker 2>would not want to be trapped in the car with

0:58:10.920 --> 0:58:13.520
<v Speaker 2>this woman, and which is exactly how you're supposed to

0:58:13.520 --> 0:58:16.240
<v Speaker 2>feel like. It's it's such a great it's a great performance.

0:58:16.560 --> 0:58:19.360
<v Speaker 4>Real tomato Ketchupanny, Oh, nothing but the best.

0:58:21.720 --> 0:58:23.920
<v Speaker 1>And Edna go for getting cold?

0:58:26.880 --> 0:58:28.000
<v Speaker 5>Is that your Aunt edla.

0:58:37.920 --> 0:58:40.480
<v Speaker 7>Ed After all these years, you're looking.

0:58:40.400 --> 0:58:41.160
<v Speaker 3>So good.

0:58:42.480 --> 0:58:51.080
<v Speaker 4>And nice to see you again. You remember, Clark, don't you?

0:58:54.760 --> 0:58:57.480
<v Speaker 3>You were the ones that sent me the fruitcake for Christmas.

0:58:57.880 --> 0:59:01.800
<v Speaker 3>It made me so sick. Oh, I'm sorry.

0:59:02.440 --> 0:59:04.160
<v Speaker 7>We thought you enjoyed fruitcake.

0:59:04.520 --> 0:59:08.520
<v Speaker 3>You enjoy throwing up every five minutes, Claude Clark, I

0:59:08.680 --> 0:59:13.080
<v Speaker 3>thought so well? Am I gonna eat? Or am I

0:59:13.120 --> 0:59:19.880
<v Speaker 3>gonna starve to death? Catherine, did you.

0:59:19.920 --> 0:59:24.480
<v Speaker 5>Tell Clark and Ellen the good news? Uh? No, I

0:59:24.640 --> 0:59:27.440
<v Speaker 5>was just about to Catherine, what's the good news?

0:59:28.280 --> 0:59:30.040
<v Speaker 3>You're driving me the Phoenix.

0:59:31.400 --> 0:59:34.640
<v Speaker 5>She's amazing and that that you can tell that there's

0:59:34.680 --> 0:59:37.040
<v Speaker 5>chemistry between all of the actors, how they all gel together.

0:59:38.160 --> 0:59:41.240
<v Speaker 5>But it was cool seeing these people like comedians today,

0:59:41.440 --> 0:59:44.640
<v Speaker 5>like seeing that that young boyster, the guy who plays Rusty.

0:59:44.680 --> 0:59:47.480
<v Speaker 5>I seen him in some TV show and I remember,

0:59:47.480 --> 0:59:49.640
<v Speaker 5>I can't remember what it's called ghost World or something

0:59:49.720 --> 0:59:52.400
<v Speaker 5>like that. When I was growing up, he could see spirits.

0:59:52.400 --> 0:59:55.080
<v Speaker 5>I remember that so as a teenager, and that came

0:59:55.120 --> 0:59:58.320
<v Speaker 5>on like late at night at ten o'clock. The Daughter,

0:59:59.080 --> 1:00:02.040
<v Speaker 5>Oh of Randy Quaid.

1:00:02.320 --> 1:00:03.560
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, Jane Krakowski.

1:00:04.480 --> 1:00:06.920
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, she's from thirty Rock, thirty Rock, Yeah.

1:00:07.160 --> 1:00:10.800
<v Speaker 2>Her film debut, Ally McBeal and thirty Rock Yeah. And

1:00:10.920 --> 1:00:14.520
<v Speaker 2>The Sun the Sun Dale. He has a claim to

1:00:14.600 --> 1:00:17.920
<v Speaker 2>fame that he delivers the first line ever in Cheers.

1:00:19.080 --> 1:00:20.040
<v Speaker 5>Oh wow.

1:00:20.240 --> 1:00:22.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he walks into the bar at Cheers and delivers

1:00:22.880 --> 1:00:26.120
<v Speaker 2>a line to the Sam Alone Ted dancing.

1:00:27.200 --> 1:00:30.520
<v Speaker 9>It's yeah, you can just tell that that these people

1:00:30.600 --> 1:00:33.240
<v Speaker 9>are like it's a it's a classic movie, but all

1:00:33.320 --> 1:00:35.160
<v Speaker 9>of these people have gone on to do really cool

1:00:35.240 --> 1:00:38.040
<v Speaker 9>things in that comedy space, which I like.

1:00:38.200 --> 1:00:43.000
<v Speaker 5>But yeah, John Candy has got some just some great

1:00:43.080 --> 1:00:46.880
<v Speaker 5>lines in it as well. Oh even when he just goes,

1:00:46.960 --> 1:00:51.400
<v Speaker 5>that's a bb gun, that whole that whole acknowledgment of

1:00:51.760 --> 1:00:54.200
<v Speaker 5>it being a bb gun, I just find myself laughing

1:00:54.640 --> 1:00:57.920
<v Speaker 5>out loud. Yeah, and then he goes to get up

1:00:57.960 --> 1:00:59.880
<v Speaker 5>and he just shoots him in the barm. Is just

1:01:00.720 --> 1:01:01.440
<v Speaker 5>it's fantastic.

1:01:01.560 --> 1:01:03.720
<v Speaker 2>Well, the the power of this I think movie has

1:01:03.920 --> 1:01:08.600
<v Speaker 2>is and that what drives Clark, and you know it

1:01:08.800 --> 1:01:12.280
<v Speaker 2>keeps the family going is this promise of this utopia

1:01:12.440 --> 1:01:15.280
<v Speaker 2>that is Wally World. You know, originally in the script

1:01:15.320 --> 1:01:17.720
<v Speaker 2>it was Disneyland. They said that we are opened three

1:01:17.800 --> 1:01:19.160

<v Speaker 10>Okay, okay, we just throw two four hundred and sixty

1:02:07.520 --> 1:02:09.800
<v Speaker 10>miles just for a little Roy Walley entertainment.

1:02:09.840 --> 1:02:11.919
<v Speaker 4>The moose says, your clothes. I say, you're open.

1:02:12.480 --> 1:02:15.919
<v Speaker 3>We're not really violent people. This is our first gun.

1:02:16.680 --> 1:02:19.280
<v Speaker 2>No, it isn't so they I think they should. They

1:02:19.280 --> 1:02:22.880
<v Speaker 2>should have six flags when they're in the car park.

1:02:23.760 --> 1:02:25.560
<v Speaker 2>You know, why do we puck so far away? Because

1:02:25.560 --> 1:02:27.000
<v Speaker 2>at the end of the day, when the lot is full,

1:02:27.360 --> 1:02:28.440
<v Speaker 2>we'll be the first ones out.

1:02:30.080 --> 1:02:32.720
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, that's gotta be. That's gotta be an iconic line.

1:02:32.800 --> 1:02:35.000
<v Speaker 1>Oh absolutely, I I was.

1:02:35.280 --> 1:02:40.480
<v Speaker 5>I was equal amounts angry and laughing at that scene

1:02:40.480 --> 1:02:42.560
<v Speaker 5>because I felt like that's something my dad would do,

1:02:43.520 --> 1:02:48.360
<v Speaker 5>and it's just so stupidly. It's like an idiot genius

1:02:48.520 --> 1:02:49.120
<v Speaker 5>came up with this.

1:02:49.480 --> 1:02:51.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

1:02:51.520 --> 1:02:53.480
<v Speaker 2>The charot, Yeah, the charots are fine kind of the

1:02:53.560 --> 1:02:56.960
<v Speaker 2>other they're so happy, they're so happy, and then it's

1:02:57.040 --> 1:03:01.280
<v Speaker 2>you know, and then it's you know, the moose informs

1:03:01.320 --> 1:03:07.080
<v Speaker 2>and that it's closed. But originally, and they shot this originally,

1:03:07.960 --> 1:03:11.120
<v Speaker 2>Wally's daughter was going to be the Ferrari girl, Christy Brinkley,

1:03:11.600 --> 1:03:14.720
<v Speaker 2>and she was going to let them, let them off,

1:03:14.760 --> 1:03:17.480
<v Speaker 2>and then they were going to go home, and they

1:03:17.800 --> 1:03:20.200
<v Speaker 2>got onto the wrong flight and they realized whilst on

1:03:20.280 --> 1:03:22.520
<v Speaker 2>the flight that they're on the wrong plane, and then

1:03:22.560 --> 1:03:25.280
<v Speaker 2>I think then hijacks the plane. Was like, it's kind

1:03:25.320 --> 1:03:30.160
<v Speaker 2>of like nuts. And then somebody, the producers or somebody said,

1:03:30.200 --> 1:03:32.520
<v Speaker 2>you know, we need to finish the story at Wallyworld.

1:03:32.520 --> 1:03:34.640
<v Speaker 2>It's been all about going to wally Wild. Let's finish

1:03:34.680 --> 1:03:36.800
<v Speaker 2>the story at Wallywild. So they changed it. I think

1:03:36.840 --> 1:03:39.000
<v Speaker 2>that's when they got John Candy in actually, and they

1:03:39.480 --> 1:03:43.480
<v Speaker 2>they made it does the hijacking of you know, John

1:03:43.560 --> 1:03:46.280
<v Speaker 2>Candy and the security people to enjoy the rides. The

1:03:46.440 --> 1:03:48.720
<v Speaker 2>rider apparently they had to keep doing them. You know,

1:03:48.880 --> 1:03:53.160
<v Speaker 2>Audrey was getting six, was taking you know, medication to help.

1:03:53.040 --> 1:03:55.240
<v Speaker 1>Her get through it. They said, there's all the fear

1:03:55.240 --> 1:03:57.880
<v Speaker 1>you see in their eyes is real fear.

1:03:58.840 --> 1:04:02.880
<v Speaker 5>This is the thing is like, all right, no, we

1:04:03.000 --> 1:04:05.680
<v Speaker 5>need to lose the plane scene, but we want to

1:04:05.720 --> 1:04:12.720
<v Speaker 5>keep the hijacking needs to stay in. Well, we can

1:04:12.880 --> 1:04:19.640
<v Speaker 5>just finish it it well, hijack hijacking. If there's no hijacking, it's.

1:04:21.040 --> 1:04:25.800
<v Speaker 2>Eddie Bracken is also somebody else who is a bit

1:04:25.840 --> 1:04:29.800
<v Speaker 2>of a legend from vaudeville days. He plays Roy Wally,

1:04:31.160 --> 1:04:34.960
<v Speaker 2>obviously playing Walt Disney basically, but.

1:04:35.040 --> 1:04:37.240
<v Speaker 1>He's so funny as well.

1:04:37.440 --> 1:04:40.800
<v Speaker 2>Like the performance again again, like I'm trying to think

1:04:40.840 --> 1:04:43.320
<v Speaker 2>there's any kind of gags as such, but it's just

1:04:44.240 --> 1:04:46.600
<v Speaker 2>you know, like you know when collactes are a little

1:04:46.600 --> 1:04:47.080
<v Speaker 2>bit haywire.

1:04:47.080 --> 1:04:50.840
<v Speaker 1>He goes, well, you've got a lot of haywire. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

1:04:51.640 --> 1:04:56.160
<v Speaker 1>but it's just such a good nuanced performance in this

1:04:56.640 --> 1:04:59.600
<v Speaker 1>what is, as you've mentioned, quite a broad comedy.

1:05:00.040 --> 1:05:03.440
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, and I know him as like, I don't know

1:05:03.560 --> 1:05:05.000
<v Speaker 5>his last I don't know his her name, but I'll

1:05:05.040 --> 1:05:08.560
<v Speaker 5>just call him mister Toys from Home Alone too.

1:05:08.800 --> 1:05:13.760
<v Speaker 1>Yes, yes, again another John Hughes movie. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

1:05:13.800 --> 1:05:15.960
<v Speaker 5>There seems to be a lot of characters from the

1:05:16.080 --> 1:05:18.080
<v Speaker 5>Home Alone series.

1:05:17.840 --> 1:05:19.439
<v Speaker 2>And a lot a lot of these actors are also

<v Speaker 2>Candy and and and and Eugene Levy and and and

1:05:29.760 --> 1:05:32.120

<v Speaker 2>few of them in there. Miriam Flynn, who's Eddie's wife,

1:05:36.680 --> 1:05:39.040
<v Speaker 2>who mentioned before, she's Second City as well, So there's

1:05:39.400 --> 1:05:42.000
<v Speaker 2>quite a few the scene that I have also, you know,

1:05:42.560 --> 1:05:44.240
<v Speaker 2>gotta wrap up soon. But the dog and the on

1:05:44.320 --> 1:05:45.280
<v Speaker 2>the freeway, Well.

1:05:45.160 --> 1:05:47.200
<v Speaker 4>Officer, whatever it is I've done, I'm sure I can explain,

1:05:52.480 --> 1:05:55.919
<v Speaker 4>explain that, you son of a bitch. Oh my god.

1:05:58.400 --> 1:06:01.600
<v Speaker 6>You know what the penalty for animal cruelty is in

1:06:01.680 --> 1:06:02.080
<v Speaker 6>this state?

1:06:02.800 --> 1:06:09.200
<v Speaker 11>Oh, sir, I don't. Well, it's probably pretty stiff. Oh

1:06:09.280 --> 1:06:12.240
<v Speaker 11>you can't think I do this on purpose, sir. I look,

1:06:12.280 --> 1:06:14.160
<v Speaker 11>I tied him to the rear bumper when I was

1:06:14.200 --> 1:06:17.480
<v Speaker 11>packing the car. It was very confusing. I must have forgot.

1:06:17.560 --> 1:06:21.480
<v Speaker 11>I'm very sorry. I feel terrible.

1:06:23.000 --> 1:06:24.440
<v Speaker 4>How do you think that little dog feels.

1:06:30.240 --> 1:06:32.360
<v Speaker 6>Look, I told you I was sorry. It really was

1:06:32.400 --> 1:06:37.920
<v Speaker 6>an accident. Yeah, I guess I can buy that, sir,

1:06:39.160 --> 1:06:42.320
<v Speaker 6>But it is a shame I had a poach like

1:06:42.400 --> 1:06:47.640
<v Speaker 6>this then when I was a kid. Poor little guy

1:06:48.320 --> 1:06:52.760
<v Speaker 6>probably kept up with you for a mile or so, tough,

1:06:52.840 --> 1:06:53.640
<v Speaker 6>little mud.

1:06:55.040 --> 1:07:07.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I was afraid you get pulled over. Clark. You've

1:07:07.320 --> 1:07:11.040
<v Speaker 3>been exceeding the speed limit for thousands of miles. Dad

1:07:11.160 --> 1:07:13.680
<v Speaker 3>wasn't speeding. The cop stopped us because Dad forgot that

1:07:13.760 --> 1:07:16.080
<v Speaker 3>he was speeding, Rusty, No he wasn't.

1:07:16.160 --> 1:07:18.560
<v Speaker 4>Mom, Russ, listen to your mother.

1:07:18.640 --> 1:07:19.240
<v Speaker 1>I was speeding.

1:07:19.480 --> 1:07:21.520
<v Speaker 4>I was driving like a maniac. We can all be

1:07:21.560 --> 1:07:23.080
<v Speaker 4>grateful to this man for stopping us.

1:07:23.760 --> 1:07:26.400
<v Speaker 6>You see, kids crazily, Sir, I'm going back to get

1:07:26.440 --> 1:07:27.800
<v Speaker 6>the rest of the carcass off the road.

1:07:28.480 --> 1:07:29.120
<v Speaker 4>Thank you, officir.

1:07:29.720 --> 1:07:29.880
<v Speaker 5>See.

1:07:31.280 --> 1:07:33.400
<v Speaker 2>I mean, this movie does a really good job of

1:07:33.520 --> 1:07:36.960
<v Speaker 2>like going all the bad things that can happen. They

1:07:37.000 --> 1:07:40.080
<v Speaker 2>get the wrong car at the start, you know, they

1:07:40.160 --> 1:07:43.480
<v Speaker 2>get stuck with this you know old woman who's annoying

1:07:43.560 --> 1:07:47.080
<v Speaker 2>and angry and potentially smelly. She ends up dying and

1:07:47.200 --> 1:07:50.400
<v Speaker 2>that they killed a pet, you know, and or they

1:07:50.480 --> 1:07:52.280
<v Speaker 2>kill a pet before and then then she dies. They

1:07:52.320 --> 1:07:54.960
<v Speaker 2>crashed the car the money stole like that, and then

1:07:55.040 --> 1:07:56.800
<v Speaker 2>they get to the end of Bollywood and it's closed.

1:07:56.920 --> 1:08:02.040
<v Speaker 2>Like I always emphasized in this podcast, like great movies

1:08:02.680 --> 1:08:05.760
<v Speaker 2>just keep on throwing obstacles that the main characters that

1:08:05.800 --> 1:08:08.840
<v Speaker 2>the protagonist you know, and like both emotionally and and

1:08:09.000 --> 1:08:12.960
<v Speaker 2>and physically, and there are emotional you know barriers here

1:08:13.000 --> 1:08:15.120
<v Speaker 2>the kids that are getting over it. You know, there's

1:08:15.560 --> 1:08:18.080
<v Speaker 2>there's being like a you know, class kind of cheated

1:08:18.120 --> 1:08:20.800
<v Speaker 2>on on on al you know, if not physically emotionally

1:08:20.840 --> 1:08:20.960
<v Speaker 2>you know.

1:08:21.040 --> 1:08:24.280
<v Speaker 1>And yeah, I do think this movie does it really well.

1:08:25.360 --> 1:08:29.519
<v Speaker 5>I love the there's lines in the movie that let

1:08:29.640 --> 1:08:37.719
<v Speaker 5>you know the absolute level of stupidity or seriousness should

1:08:37.720 --> 1:08:39.880
<v Speaker 5>I even say it's it's a bit of both of

1:08:40.000 --> 1:08:44.920
<v Speaker 5>where we're at at the moment. Because the dog, the

1:08:45.080 --> 1:08:48.880
<v Speaker 5>dog dying scene, they really they do a gag, but

1:08:48.960 --> 1:08:50.599
<v Speaker 5>it lets you know that this is a really full

1:08:50.680 --> 1:08:54.439
<v Speaker 5>on moment. Yeah, because I think the wife says something

1:08:55.439 --> 1:08:57.000
<v Speaker 5>and he's like, oh, let me do it, and then

1:08:57.040 --> 1:08:58.680
<v Speaker 5>she's just like, as long as you don't tie me

1:08:58.720 --> 1:09:01.559
<v Speaker 5>to the car or what yes, and you go, whoa,

1:09:02.320 --> 1:09:04.680
<v Speaker 5>that's really full on. But yeah, that that lets us know.

1:09:04.880 --> 1:09:09.120
<v Speaker 5>And then when the mother dies, uh and they just

1:09:09.320 --> 1:09:12.840
<v Speaker 5>leave her, the wife says it again. She says, well,

1:09:12.920 --> 1:09:16.439
<v Speaker 5>I suppose you just led left his dead mum at

1:09:16.520 --> 1:09:22.040
<v Speaker 5>his back door, yeah, in the rain, And you just go, oh, yeah,

1:09:22.320 --> 1:09:25.800
<v Speaker 5>we have gotten really stupid here, and that line just

1:09:25.880 --> 1:09:28.560
<v Speaker 5>lets me know we've really pushed some boundaries here, like

1:09:28.640 --> 1:09:32.680
<v Speaker 5>this is really we're in some serious territory. And then

1:09:32.920 --> 1:09:35.799
<v Speaker 5>for Wally World to be closed and that's the breaking

1:09:35.880 --> 1:09:41.800
<v Speaker 5>point is really funny. That's you're like, also, the park

1:09:41.920 --> 1:09:47.320
<v Speaker 5>is closed, You're like, dude, that's of all things, that's fine.

1:09:48.200 --> 1:09:51.320
<v Speaker 5>But because that's the that's that straw, that's the absolute

1:09:51.479 --> 1:09:53.400
<v Speaker 5>pinnacle of the movie, and that's what we've been building

1:09:53.439 --> 1:09:56.400
<v Speaker 5>towards it. Really, it just makes sense and it's fun,

1:09:56.479 --> 1:09:59.920
<v Speaker 5>and yeah, that's it's it's well written in that kind

1:09:59.920 --> 1:10:02.640
<v Speaker 5>of context. I loved. I loved all of that, the

1:10:02.720 --> 1:10:06.240
<v Speaker 5>stupidity and the build up and the craziness that's happening.

1:10:06.640 --> 1:10:10.400
<v Speaker 5>And you're forgiven because again the gag needs to work

1:10:10.680 --> 1:10:14.360
<v Speaker 5>so cool and Chevy is brilliant and as well when

1:10:14.400 --> 1:10:16.439
<v Speaker 5>he gets lost in the desert and goes for a walk.

1:10:16.479 --> 1:10:19.519
<v Speaker 5>But the Native American people like look after the family.

1:10:19.600 --> 1:10:20.360
<v Speaker 5>That's really funny.

1:10:20.720 --> 1:10:23.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, like I said, outside of vacation, actually, I do

1:10:24.080 --> 1:10:26.479
<v Speaker 2>like Three Amgos. He's great in Three Amgos and I

1:10:26.720 --> 1:10:28.800
<v Speaker 2>like Fletch, but I do love Three Amigos. I think

1:10:28.800 --> 1:10:30.439
<v Speaker 2>it's got jokes all the way through it.

1:10:31.000 --> 1:10:31.400
<v Speaker 1>It's great.

1:10:31.720 --> 1:10:34.880
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, I kind of don't necessarily I love Steve Martin,

1:10:34.920 --> 1:10:38.080
<v Speaker 2>I love I love John Candy Martin Short. I don't

1:10:38.080 --> 1:10:41.000
<v Speaker 2>necessarily have that in built love for Chevy Chase, but

1:10:41.120 --> 1:10:43.720
<v Speaker 2>I do particularly love him and I think it's a

1:10:43.760 --> 1:10:45.680
<v Speaker 2>perfect role for him and I think he commits to it.

1:10:46.000 --> 1:10:49.719
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's a fun one, mate. We have to wrap

1:10:49.800 --> 1:10:52.840
<v Speaker 1>this up. I love that we got you on. You

1:10:52.920 --> 1:10:56.599
<v Speaker 1>are coming. You are touring around the country. Is that happening?

1:10:56.920 --> 1:11:00.680
<v Speaker 5>Yeah? Yeah, I heading to Adelaide Free. I've got my

1:11:00.800 --> 1:11:05.600
<v Speaker 5>new show, did you read Dad? Obviously just becoming a

1:11:05.680 --> 1:11:08.479
<v Speaker 5>new dad, which is crazy. I've got a little boy,

1:11:08.520 --> 1:11:11.679
<v Speaker 5>his names Ari and he's eight months old. So Adelaid Fringe.

1:11:11.720 --> 1:11:13.920
<v Speaker 5>I'll take that to Adelaid Fringe and too, Sydney Comedy

1:11:14.000 --> 1:11:17.800
<v Speaker 5>first and then Melbourne Comedy Festival. I've got some guys

1:11:17.880 --> 1:11:19.760
<v Speaker 5>coming from Wagga Wogga, which I'm really proud of him.

1:11:19.880 --> 1:11:24.439
<v Speaker 5>All the locals heading over the Best of the Bush,

1:11:24.720 --> 1:11:25.839
<v Speaker 5>the best of the Bush.

1:11:25.920 --> 1:11:29.160
<v Speaker 2>And I really urge people to get along because it

1:11:29.280 --> 1:11:32.479
<v Speaker 2>means a lot to these comedians that you've provided this

1:11:32.600 --> 1:11:35.400
<v Speaker 2>forum and the festival has. So we did a gig

1:11:35.520 --> 1:11:38.000
<v Speaker 2>at Woggle with you, a couple of gigs at one

1:11:38.040 --> 1:11:40.240
<v Speaker 2>in Wagga Wogga. There's a whole bunch of comedians on

1:11:40.320 --> 1:11:42.599
<v Speaker 2>the bill, and I remember when I was seen saw

1:11:42.600 --> 1:11:44.000
<v Speaker 2>how many people on the bill, I was almost like,

1:11:45.040 --> 1:11:47.160
<v Speaker 2>you probably just need you to you just get up

1:11:47.160 --> 1:11:48.400
<v Speaker 2>to it. You know, maybe you have one support and

1:11:48.400 --> 1:11:50.320
<v Speaker 2>then I'll get up. But like you see what it

1:11:50.439 --> 1:11:53.600
<v Speaker 2>means because you know, you know, a comedian with a

1:11:53.600 --> 1:11:56.080
<v Speaker 2>little the profile comes into town. You know, there's there's

1:11:56.120 --> 1:11:58.880
<v Speaker 2>a crowd there and you see these comedians get up

1:11:58.880 --> 1:12:02.480
<v Speaker 2>and to really kind of lap up, you know, and communities,

1:12:02.600 --> 1:12:05.160
<v Speaker 2>you know, we are all better when there's a bigger crowd.

1:12:05.920 --> 1:12:08.400
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, of course, So it was.

1:12:08.520 --> 1:12:09.479
<v Speaker 1>It was such a joy to do.

1:12:09.760 --> 1:12:12.880
<v Speaker 2>And I recommend and anciently making my way to see

1:12:13.120 --> 1:12:14.759
<v Speaker 2>the Best of the Bush at the Melbourne.

1:12:14.880 --> 1:12:17.559

<v Speaker 5>Thanks for having me and my brother.

1:13:24.439 --> 1:13:28.120
<v Speaker 2>Dane Simpson. Everybody the great day. The King of Waga

1:13:29.120 --> 1:13:31.320
<v Speaker 2>Dane Simpson, I said to him after we finished it.

1:13:31.600 --> 1:13:33.560
<v Speaker 2>You know, like when I started this podcast, I was

1:13:33.600 --> 1:13:36.280
<v Speaker 2>kind of hoping that everyone loved the movie, you know,

1:13:36.400 --> 1:13:38.320
<v Speaker 2>because then it will be easy to do. But what

1:13:38.439 --> 1:13:42.200
<v Speaker 2>I've actually grown to enjoy as much, just as much,

1:13:42.640 --> 1:13:45.720
<v Speaker 2>is when they're a bit oh not sure, I'm not

1:13:45.800 --> 1:13:49.519
<v Speaker 2>sure about the movie, and that way we can chat

1:13:49.600 --> 1:13:52.760
<v Speaker 2>of that, and as long as they come, I guess,

1:13:52.840 --> 1:13:56.800
<v Speaker 2>come with a willingness to chat the reasons they didn't

1:13:56.880 --> 1:13:59.120
<v Speaker 2>like the movie or or are still grappling with it.

1:13:59.400 --> 1:14:02.519
<v Speaker 2>I think it makes it entertaining, So yeah, I enjoy

1:14:02.600 --> 1:14:07.200
<v Speaker 2>I enjoyed that conversation with the Great Dane Simpson. Catchies

1:14:07.400 --> 1:14:10.960

<v Speaker 2>be discussing a movie from nineteen fifty eight. I'd heard

1:14:39.680 --> 1:14:42.000
<v Speaker 2>of this one. I've been really keen to do. The

1:14:42.120 --> 1:14:47.639
<v Speaker 2>Defiant Ones Sidney Poitier and Tony Curtis basically chained together

1:14:47.840 --> 1:14:51.320
