WEBVTT - MINI: GOAT ISLAND

0:00:01.120 --> 0:00:02.040
<v Speaker 1>Got anything good.

0:00:02.640 --> 0:00:09.240
<v Speaker 2>Hey, this is the Christian O'Connell show podcast.

0:00:10.320 --> 0:00:13.000
<v Speaker 1>Yesterday on the show we were talking about rom coms,

0:00:13.160 --> 0:00:17.040
<v Speaker 1>and I said that The Notebook was a rom com,

0:00:17.440 --> 0:00:19.560
<v Speaker 1>and I thought today we could talk about what do

0:00:19.600 --> 0:00:23.040
<v Speaker 1>we think are the greatest rom coms of all time?

0:00:23.320 --> 0:00:26.080
<v Speaker 1>Because actually, when you think about there have been so many,

0:00:26.480 --> 0:00:29.600
<v Speaker 1>so many really really great rom coms, also loads of

0:00:29.800 --> 0:00:33.120
<v Speaker 1>very tepid, bang average ones like Adam Sander has made

0:00:33.600 --> 0:00:36.680
<v Speaker 1>some good ones, but even more bad ones, and I

0:00:36.720 --> 0:00:39.920
<v Speaker 1>love The Sandman. But today we want to find out

0:00:39.920 --> 0:00:44.080
<v Speaker 1>what are the greatest of all time? The goat rom coms.

0:00:44.120 --> 0:00:46.680
<v Speaker 1>So we're going to form Goat Island, and on go

0:00:46.840 --> 0:00:50.200
<v Speaker 1>Island only four of the greatest of all time rom

0:00:50.280 --> 0:00:52.680
<v Speaker 1>coms can be on there. So you've really got to

0:00:52.680 --> 0:00:56.280
<v Speaker 1>make your pitch count which movie and why there's a

0:00:56.320 --> 0:00:58.560
<v Speaker 1>scene you'd like us to dig out as well? To

0:00:58.600 --> 0:01:00.760
<v Speaker 1>back up your case, let me know nine four one

0:01:00.840 --> 0:01:03.960
<v Speaker 1>four one oh four three. Jackie boy, what are you going?

0:01:03.960 --> 0:01:05.520
<v Speaker 1>Do you love rom coms? First of all, I do

0:01:05.680 --> 0:01:06.400
<v Speaker 1>love a good rom com.

0:01:06.480 --> 0:01:08.640
<v Speaker 3>I love a rom com And this is the first

0:01:08.760 --> 0:01:12.280
<v Speaker 3>DVD I ever owned. Ten Things I Hate about You,

0:01:13.160 --> 0:01:19.560
<v Speaker 3>Brilliant Rock com. This is Heath Ledgio iconic scene where

0:01:19.600 --> 0:01:22.400
<v Speaker 3>he's singing to Julia Styles on the bleaches of the

0:01:22.400 --> 0:01:28.679
<v Speaker 3>soccer field. This is a Shakespeare play, modern adapt adaptation

0:01:28.920 --> 0:01:31.399
<v Speaker 3>into the best rong com of all time.

0:01:31.880 --> 0:01:34.479
<v Speaker 1>A couple of years ago during lockdown, we watched it, well,

0:01:34.480 --> 0:01:36.400
<v Speaker 1>I watched it again. I watched it with my two

0:01:36.440 --> 0:01:39.240
<v Speaker 1>teenage daughters. And it's still a great movie.

0:01:39.520 --> 0:01:42.360
<v Speaker 3>It's still know what's the best thing about it? He

0:01:42.360 --> 0:01:43.800
<v Speaker 3>didn't care what anybody think.

0:01:44.040 --> 0:01:46.440
<v Speaker 4>It was his breakout movie, wasn't it. I think it

0:01:46.560 --> 0:01:50.280
<v Speaker 4>probably is really discovered on an international scale. He was

0:01:50.320 --> 0:01:51.040
<v Speaker 4>brilliant in it.

0:01:51.400 --> 0:01:53.360
<v Speaker 5>Now tell me this what year was that out?

0:01:53.520 --> 0:01:54.440
<v Speaker 3>Nineteen ninety nine?

0:01:55.760 --> 0:01:57.360
<v Speaker 1>Patsy, what are you going there? What do you think

0:01:57.440 --> 0:02:00.400
<v Speaker 1>is your contender for greatest rom com of all time?

0:02:00.440 --> 0:02:01.280
<v Speaker 5>For Go Island?

0:02:01.400 --> 0:02:05.320
<v Speaker 6>I could fill all four spots with Bridget Jones one, two, three,

0:02:05.600 --> 0:02:12.639
<v Speaker 6>four equally only No, No, No, how Dare You deserves

0:02:12.639 --> 0:02:13.240
<v Speaker 6>its place?

0:02:13.560 --> 0:02:14.680
<v Speaker 4>Absolutely brilliant.

0:02:14.680 --> 0:02:18.480
<v Speaker 6>I think there's every woman can relate to a little

0:02:18.480 --> 0:02:22.240
<v Speaker 6>bit of Bridget, just that awkwardness sometimes when trying to

0:02:22.280 --> 0:02:27.520
<v Speaker 6>meet a partner, but also just being authentically herself. And

0:02:27.520 --> 0:02:30.560
<v Speaker 6>and the scene I love most is where at the

0:02:30.639 --> 0:02:34.480
<v Speaker 6>dinner party, Mark Darcy and her go down the staircase

0:02:34.560 --> 0:02:37.600
<v Speaker 6>and it's where he proclaims that he's into her, and

0:02:37.639 --> 0:02:40.840
<v Speaker 6>he says to her, with all of your you know,

0:02:41.520 --> 0:02:45.320
<v Speaker 6>weird bits and all your weird sort of tendencies, I

0:02:45.360 --> 0:02:47.400
<v Speaker 6>love you just the way you are. You don't need

0:02:47.440 --> 0:02:49.560
<v Speaker 6>to change, Bridget You're perfect.

0:02:49.800 --> 0:02:52.280
<v Speaker 5>Oh my god, I just having it re enacted. We've

0:02:52.280 --> 0:02:55.079
<v Speaker 5>got the clip, but we don't bloody need it. You'll

0:02:55.120 --> 0:02:56.920
<v Speaker 5>recreating the street band on a keyboard.

0:02:57.000 --> 0:03:00.120
<v Speaker 1>Come surrounded by this real cast of.

0:03:08.040 --> 0:03:10.560
<v Speaker 5>What this is a clip you're talking about?

0:03:10.600 --> 0:03:13.960
<v Speaker 7>I think, I mean, there are elements of the ridiculous

0:03:13.960 --> 0:03:18.480
<v Speaker 7>about you. Your mother's pretty interesting, and you really are

0:03:18.720 --> 0:03:22.440
<v Speaker 7>an appallingly bad public speaker, and you tend to let

0:03:22.480 --> 0:03:23.840
<v Speaker 7>whatever is in your head come out of your mouth

0:03:23.840 --> 0:03:28.239
<v Speaker 7>without much consideration of the consequences. I realized that when

0:03:28.240 --> 0:03:30.920
<v Speaker 7>I met you at the Turkey curry buffet that I

0:03:30.960 --> 0:03:35.600
<v Speaker 7>was unforgivably rude and wearing a reindeer jumper that my

0:03:35.680 --> 0:03:38.600
<v Speaker 7>mother had given me in the day before. But the

0:03:38.640 --> 0:03:45.400
<v Speaker 7>thing is, what I'm trying to say, very inarticulately, is that,

0:03:47.280 --> 0:03:53.480
<v Speaker 7>in fact, perhaps despite appearances, I like you very much.

0:03:54.440 --> 0:03:57.440
<v Speaker 8>Apart from the smoking and the drinking and the vulcan

0:03:57.480 --> 0:04:01.240
<v Speaker 8>mother and the verbal Diarry, I like him very much,

0:04:02.440 --> 0:04:03.040
<v Speaker 8>just as you are.

0:04:03.440 --> 0:04:06.040
<v Speaker 1>Bridgie Jones has to go on the Go Island. It's

0:04:06.120 --> 0:04:08.040
<v Speaker 1>such a great It is one of the greatest rom

0:04:08.080 --> 0:04:08.920
<v Speaker 1>comms of all time.

0:04:08.960 --> 0:04:10.800
<v Speaker 5>You're right? And the fourth one, Patsy, I.

0:04:10.800 --> 0:04:12.480
<v Speaker 1>Don't think I've got into saying this that throughout the

0:04:12.480 --> 0:04:14.400
<v Speaker 1>other week. It's brilliant, isn't it.

0:04:14.560 --> 0:04:15.520
<v Speaker 5>Oh my god? You're right.

0:04:15.640 --> 0:04:18.880
<v Speaker 1>It is such a moving They really really they did

0:04:18.920 --> 0:04:20.000
<v Speaker 1>something really special with that.

0:04:20.160 --> 0:04:21.440
<v Speaker 5>I thought it was a great movie.

0:04:21.480 --> 0:04:23.760
<v Speaker 1>I think it still leaves the door open for maybe

0:04:23.800 --> 0:04:26.039
<v Speaker 1>even another one or two, but it is the fourth

0:04:26.080 --> 0:04:27.240
<v Speaker 1>one is very very good.

0:04:27.360 --> 0:04:29.239
<v Speaker 5>All right? What else should be on Go Island?

0:04:29.640 --> 0:04:33.160
<v Speaker 7>The Christian O'Connell show podcast, What.

0:04:33.120 --> 0:04:36.279
<v Speaker 1>Do you think is the greatest rom com of all time?

0:04:36.320 --> 0:04:39.200
<v Speaker 1>We're looking to our four on Go Island? The greatest

0:04:39.200 --> 0:04:39.640
<v Speaker 1>of all time?

0:04:39.800 --> 0:04:43.440
<v Speaker 5>Island? Are the four the best romantic comedies? Make your case?

0:04:43.480 --> 0:04:46.719
<v Speaker 5>Which movie you love? Nine? Four, one, four, one oh

0:04:46.760 --> 0:04:47.240
<v Speaker 5>four three.

0:04:47.440 --> 0:04:49.560
<v Speaker 1>I was just trying to work out which actor and

0:04:49.600 --> 0:04:51.880
<v Speaker 1>actresses have been in the most like ten out of

0:04:51.880 --> 0:04:54.880
<v Speaker 1>ten rom coms. I reckon it's between Julia Roberts and

0:04:54.960 --> 0:04:58.719
<v Speaker 1>Hugh Grant, because Hugh Grant obviously has been in low's

0:04:58.839 --> 0:05:00.760
<v Speaker 1>his hit rate. Actually, so, I think about a lot

0:05:00.800 --> 0:05:03.160
<v Speaker 1>of people saying how much they love love Actually right,

0:05:03.440 --> 0:05:06.400
<v Speaker 1>she got Hugh, and that Bridget Jones is in notting

0:05:06.480 --> 0:05:10.880
<v Speaker 1>Hill with another huge rom com star and a great actress,

0:05:10.920 --> 0:05:11.840
<v Speaker 1>Judy Roberts as well.

0:05:12.400 --> 0:05:13.599
<v Speaker 5>They've been in so many The.

0:05:14.200 --> 0:05:17.080
<v Speaker 3>Other two I think of is Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson.

0:05:17.120 --> 0:05:20.200
<v Speaker 1>Matthew Nay has a lower hit rate than anybody else,

0:05:20.400 --> 0:05:22.400
<v Speaker 1>which is why since we realized and he's just stopped

0:05:22.440 --> 0:05:25.359
<v Speaker 1>in rom Comms and actually become the true great actor

0:05:25.440 --> 0:05:27.599
<v Speaker 1>I am, he just led them by. I can't count

0:05:27.640 --> 0:05:30.960
<v Speaker 1>No one has mentioned any of the McConaughey he is

0:05:31.279 --> 0:05:33.520
<v Speaker 1>when he was into rom Commons, which is so astonishing

0:05:33.520 --> 0:05:35.560
<v Speaker 1>about his career. Then when he goes in and does

0:05:35.640 --> 0:05:38.839
<v Speaker 1>like True Detective and all these incredible ether roles. Now

0:05:38.880 --> 0:05:41.120
<v Speaker 1>you love Jack's contender then for greatest of all time,

0:05:41.200 --> 0:05:42.799
<v Speaker 1>rom comm is a great one with Heath Ledger.

0:05:43.320 --> 0:05:44.600
<v Speaker 5>Ten Things I Hate about.

0:05:44.320 --> 0:05:48.040
<v Speaker 3>You, PATSI, You're absolutely right. It was his international breakout role.

0:05:48.160 --> 0:05:50.680
<v Speaker 3>Ten Things I hate about you. And it was Heath

0:05:50.760 --> 0:05:53.120
<v Speaker 3>Ledger's choice to sing can't take my eyes off of

0:05:53.120 --> 0:05:55.400
<v Speaker 3>You on that clip that we listened to before, because

0:05:55.400 --> 0:05:58.240
<v Speaker 3>originally it was going to be I touched myself by

0:05:58.240 --> 0:05:59.000
<v Speaker 3>the the vinals.

0:06:00.120 --> 0:06:02.320
<v Speaker 1>You don't want to hear a hormonal teenage boy college

0:06:02.360 --> 0:06:04.919
<v Speaker 1>thing in this to audiences around the world.

0:06:05.000 --> 0:06:05.800
<v Speaker 5>It's not the right.

0:06:05.680 --> 0:06:06.640
<v Speaker 3>Thing, changes the whole.

0:06:06.800 --> 0:06:07.480
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, you know.

0:06:08.120 --> 0:06:12.359
<v Speaker 1>They're directors or someone that made a smarter choice. All right,

0:06:12.360 --> 0:06:14.640
<v Speaker 1>there's sir tea some cools now nine four one four

0:06:14.760 --> 0:06:16.279
<v Speaker 1>one o four three. What do you think is the

0:06:16.279 --> 0:06:19.039
<v Speaker 1>greatest romantic comedy of all time? Danielle?

0:06:19.120 --> 0:06:19.800
<v Speaker 5>What's it for you?

0:06:21.000 --> 0:06:22.000
<v Speaker 2>When Harry met Sally?

0:06:22.360 --> 0:06:24.960
<v Speaker 1>Yes, it's one of my favorite movies of all time.

0:06:25.040 --> 0:06:26.000
<v Speaker 1>What do you love about it?

0:06:26.760 --> 0:06:30.640
<v Speaker 8>Well, even apart from the cafe saying what my probably

0:06:30.680 --> 0:06:34.240
<v Speaker 8>one of my favorite part is at the end on

0:06:34.400 --> 0:06:37.920
<v Speaker 8>New Year's Eve when he finally realizes that he's they

0:06:38.279 --> 0:06:40.520
<v Speaker 8>met for each other, and then he runs in and

0:06:40.600 --> 0:06:43.320
<v Speaker 8>like you know, proclaims all the things that he doesn't

0:06:43.400 --> 0:06:46.000
<v Speaker 8>understand about it, but despite all that, he just he

0:06:46.080 --> 0:06:46.840
<v Speaker 8>loves her anyway.

0:06:47.240 --> 0:06:49.760
<v Speaker 2>It's not because I'm lonely, and it's not for goods

0:06:49.800 --> 0:06:52.360
<v Speaker 2>of New Year's Eve. I came here tonight because when

0:06:52.400 --> 0:06:54.160
<v Speaker 2>you realize you want to spend the rest of your

0:06:54.200 --> 0:06:56.360
<v Speaker 2>life with somebody, you want the rest of your life

0:06:56.360 --> 0:06:57.760
<v Speaker 2>to start as soon as passible.

0:06:57.839 --> 0:07:00.320
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, it's a great movie, right, watch it

0:07:00.320 --> 0:07:02.240
<v Speaker 1>every couple of years. When it came out, it was

0:07:02.279 --> 0:07:04.600
<v Speaker 1>like nineteen eighty nine, I think, or nineteen ninety nine.

0:07:04.600 --> 0:07:06.200
<v Speaker 1>That was the end of the eighties, and I was

0:07:06.200 --> 0:07:08.680
<v Speaker 1>like sixteen or seventeen. I love that movie. Do you

0:07:08.760 --> 0:07:10.720
<v Speaker 1>know it's only ninety six minutes, right. I think it's

0:07:10.720 --> 0:07:12.880
<v Speaker 1>one of the perfect comedies. And what it is is

0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:15.840
<v Speaker 1>like most romantic movies and romantic comedies, they're about the spark,

0:07:15.880 --> 0:07:18.720
<v Speaker 1>they're about falling in love. What I loved about Harry

0:07:18.840 --> 0:07:21.880
<v Speaker 1>When Harry Met Sallie's still now. It's about what happens

0:07:22.000 --> 0:07:24.680
<v Speaker 1>over the years. I've been watching that as a young man,

0:07:24.720 --> 0:07:27.080
<v Speaker 1>thinking if I get married, I hope it's someone like that.

0:07:27.360 --> 0:07:30.080
<v Speaker 1>Next month, we're twenty seven years married together. I love

0:07:30.120 --> 0:07:32.320
<v Speaker 1>When Harry Met Sally. It's such a great movie because

0:07:32.320 --> 0:07:36.040
<v Speaker 1>over the ninety six odd minutes, their relationship grows over

0:07:36.120 --> 0:07:38.880
<v Speaker 1>twelve years, they help each other through all these different breakups.

0:07:38.920 --> 0:07:41.160
<v Speaker 1>There's a very different take on what it is not

0:07:41.240 --> 0:07:43.800
<v Speaker 1>just to fall in love, but obviously to sustain it

0:07:43.840 --> 0:07:45.480
<v Speaker 1>and to keep it going over the years. You're right,

0:07:45.800 --> 0:07:47.200
<v Speaker 1>it's a great movie, Danielle.

0:07:47.680 --> 0:07:49.360
<v Speaker 8>And then they have just quickly and then they have

0:07:49.440 --> 0:07:53.360
<v Speaker 8>all those losses, all the old pop along the way, Yes,

0:07:53.640 --> 0:07:56.680
<v Speaker 8>and just how they all may different stories. It's just

0:07:56.880 --> 0:07:58.480
<v Speaker 8>the whole movie is just perfect.

0:07:58.640 --> 0:07:58.960
<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

0:07:59.240 --> 0:08:01.760
<v Speaker 1>Also when you watch it right, you should watch it again.

0:08:02.080 --> 0:08:04.600
<v Speaker 1>It's a time wheek and it is the definitely the eighties.

0:08:04.760 --> 0:08:08.200
<v Speaker 1>Men are wearing very big chunky sweaters that's not yet

0:08:08.240 --> 0:08:08.920
<v Speaker 1>come back.

0:08:08.760 --> 0:08:11.200
<v Speaker 5>Around this winter in Melbourne. I want to bring back

0:08:11.560 --> 0:08:14.880
