you know what that sound means it's another episode
of game for a movie where we ask are you game
for a movie my name is mike i am joined by andre
and jill it's me cool that was smooth way better
what much better you could never have told that
we you we rehearsed that it was yeah right we
nailed it we nailed it first try great start
uh uh it's good to see you guys we have a movie
banter episode for you where we have a ton of
movies to talk about um some of which are newer
some of which are older some of which are in
betweeners and i like that in betweeners yeah
yeah yeah there's some in betweeners i don't
know what that goes towards but it works I guess
it's the two movies I saw last or from last year.
I don't know. That would be in between. Yeah.
Yeah. That's what you're saying. Yeah. There's
in betweeners. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. First, we've got to start with what
are we drinking? Andre? Oh, yeah. He's off, buddy.
Okay. Okay. Okay. I got myself. We're going German
tonight. I got up myself an open fermented and
oak lager. My Bach lager beer. I don't know how
you pronounce it. Maybach? Probably, right? Maybach
is a car. Maybach? Maybach? Anyways, from OEC
Brewing in Oxford, Connecticut. It's something
in Latin. I thought it was Oxford's Eccentric
Concoctions, but it's something Latin because
they're that highfalutin about it. They definitely
use the eccentric concoctions labeling, though.
Yes. Okay. Yeah, Jill and I kind of hit this
on the way back from visiting her family for
Hanukkah, because it's kind of like a 50 -ish
minute drive from us, so it's not something we
can usually do. Yeah, right. Apparently, OEC
is the top. They were on some list of top 30
breweries in the country, and OEC and Fox Farm
were the two Connecticut breweries that showed
up, and we love Fox Farm, so we're like, gotta
go. It does have eccentric concoctions. Yes.
It's Oxnard. OEC is one of the breweries that
doesn't really do the larger brewery festivals
around here, so there's been a lot of breweries
that we've been able to knock out through that,
but this is not one of them, so it was kind of
exciting to go. It's good. It was a good day
to go. They were very quiet, and the vibe was...
The place is cool. Yeah. Okay. I found it. It's
Latin. It's Ordinum Eccentrisi Con... So we got
the English part. Order of Eccentric Boilers.
That's their... Yeah. There you go. It's pretty
good. I like it. Nice. Jill, what do you got
over there? uh we were in ohio for thanksgiving
so i'm drinking one of those uh i have thirsty
dogs brewing uh 12 dogs of christmas ale uh still
people will find out later why i picked this
because it ties into one of the movies i'm going
to talk about um but it's a good christmas ale
a nice spiced ale um was the favorite of the
weekend during thanksgiving in akron just a controversial
pick christmas sales are a big deal in northeast
ohio and usually great lakes christmas ale is
like my go -to standby want to get a pallet of
that shipped to my house yeah i didn't realize
there was such a like hot take of christmas oh
yeah this is a controversy i know we don't want
to get political on this podcast yeah we're taking
a stand here uh apparently so this year well
this year like so christmas sales like they kind
of fluctuate year over year you know i don't
know what it is the spices they throw in i don't
know well they trust them they're different probably
yeah right yeah um christmas sale still from
great lakes still a great beer would would have
a pint of it and would hardly recommend somebody
else do the same but this year doesn't hit just
the same and i don't know uh thirsty dog's another
big brewery in akron and i don't know why they
came out swinging and they they i feel like they're
the best best christmas beer of the season right
now so okay taylor swift one could say it hits
different it does wait is that does that taylor
swift quote i think i don't know does she own
yeah it's different it's a song that i mean the
one time in this podcast taylor swift will be
brought up we are not talking about the heiress
tour because i've not seen it so i'm talking
about the heiress tour no you're a swifty sure
though no i am definitely not a slifty uh claire
watched it without me because i was working like
she made sure This was the time she was going
to watch it. And I said, yeah, watch it, but
just make sure I'm not there. That's funny. I
came home from my lunch break and she had about
15 minutes left. And I was just like, okay, you're
watching that. I'm going to eat my lunch. Uh,
I am drinking over here. The it's called, uh,
hop chiller is what it's called. It is a cold
IPA. You are correct, sir. Uh, it is from Legion
brewing. I can't get it out of my koozie right
now because it's so full to the max. So I'm just
going to have to, That's okay. I believe you.
Break it down. Yeah. Give us tasting notes. Ah,
there we go. It's interesting. I like it. But
it's got a weird, like, after... Not even taste,
but, like, after thing. Finish? Yeah. After finish.
It leaves a tickle on your tongue? A little bit,
yeah. It's definitely something on my tongue
where it's like... I'm glad this is an audio
only podcast. You guys are getting some great
sound effects right now. Yes. Great radio. Free
ASMR. What are the opposite of ASMR is? I'm going
to drink this beer. It's my beer drinking noise.
But wait, I got to get that. What? Just because.
But yeah. So it's from Legion Brewing, which
is one of my favorite breweries down here. If
you guys ever come down and we go to a bar, let
me tell you right now, Legion Brewing Juicy J
is on every single tap ever. It is one of my
favorites. Honestly, it's so smooth and so good.
Sounds like the equivalent of like the counterweight
headway over here in Connecticut. Yes, yes, very
much so. And I would honestly say they're very
similar as well because I love headway as well.
Nice. But yeah. Yeah, so this is Hop Chiller.
I keep forgetting the name because I think Cold
Chiller first. Hop Chiller from Legion Brewing.
Nice. Yeah. Yeah. But that's the beer. What do
we got for movies? You guys are going to kick
us off. Andre, you're going to kick us off kind
of. Obviously, you guys are splitting a little
bit. We are, you know, these days, whatever I
watch. whatever i watch jill is usually watching
with me um but not vice versa no jill consumes
more more passive media than i do these days
i'm like if i'm if i'm doing if i do for doing
her own thing it's she's usually like multitasking
having a show on and while she's doing something
else whether switching her hands or crocheting
or what have you and i'm usually just gaming
you know what i mean a switch in your hands like
a switchblade like yes yeah yeah i've rediscovered
stardew valley yes that okay um speaking of rediscovering
uh we rediscovered this 35 year old classic well
done well done no no one's ever heard of it yeah
no one's ever heard of it no no we we just found
out about this movie guys did you guys know die
hard was fucking awesome it is yeah i've heard
it's a christmas movie yes yes one could say
one could say it is also my number one christmas
movie yes uh agreed we're all we're all die hard
christmas enjoyers here we're all die hard die
hards yeah yes uh what about die harder no no
is it a christmas movie maybe we'll see the third
one no is it a christmas it's a christmas movie
the one in the airport yes is it christmas during
christmas Yes, it takes place during Christmas.
There's snow on the ground. That makes it even
more lame. I'm a little upset. Okay. I mean,
remember, there's snow there. All right, the
third one is, like, summer. I found a ranking
list, and the top two were Die Hard 3 and Die
Hard 1. Yep. And we're open to trying. I would
agree. Mine also goes 1, 3, 4, 2. And the abomination
that is five. Wait, I could have sworn that you
said, oh man, Die Hard 2 is great. And we watched
that at your behest. We actually, no, this is
what it was. Die Hard 2 is my second favorite
Christmas movie because I'm such a Die Hard.
That's right. Okay, yes, yes, yes. Die Hard 1
and Die Hard 2. Yes, I'm still remembering that
now. And then very bottom of the list is Elf.
Which just turned 20. Oh my god, that's 20 years
old now? I believe so. It just celebrated a big
anniversary. So happy birthday, you annoying
brat. Damn. That hurts. I like Elf. You've never
forced me to watch it the way I've forced you
to watch The Holiday. I haven't seen it in years
because Jill does not like Will Ferrell and does
not like... Whoa! I like Will Ferrell. What do
you mean? I thought you don't like Will Ferrell.
Will Ferrell. I like his Hero Saga movie. I like
It's Glory. I like Stranger Than Fiction. I like
him in the Lego movie. Talladega Nights? Never
seen it. seen the second one. Never seen the
first one. You never saw the first one, but you
saw the second one? Because where I was at the
time in my life when the second one came out,
it was more readily accessible to me. All right,
you need to see the first one. Yeah, we should
watch the first one at this point. I like the
sketch, the Blue Oyster Cult sketch, more cabal.
Yes. Using that with Jimmy Fallon. Yes, it's
great. Okay, so what I'm hearing is you're very
selective about your Will Ferrell discography,
and Elf does not make the cut. Discography, filmography.
Filmography, discography. You know, yeah. I'm
sure he has a Christmas album out there. Somewhere,
somewhere. But it's bitchin'. Why are we talking
about Die Hard? Die Hard, that's right, yeah.
So AMC, because they also recognize that it's
a Christmas movie, for the 35th anniversary.
They decided to do a re -release. 35th, not 30th.
35th. Yes, I misspoke. I apologize. 35th. They
decided to re -release it in theaters for one
weekend, and we found out while we were visiting
Jill's parents, and we were like, well, there's
a 10 .45 p .m. showing. Let's do it. Why not?
It's going to be a blast. at 10 45 p .m and guess
how many people were in the theater yeah just
guess just guess uh i mean it should be a billion
but i'm guessing by your reaction it wasn't a
billion it was not it was zero until one person
showed up like one person showed up like Halfway
through? 20 minutes in? That's the part that
confuses me the most. Maybe they have stubs or
something like that. They must. And they're just
like, oh, man. I'm not going to count the security
guard who sat down. I'm going to say this person
had tickets to another movie and then decided
that they were also going to. They were like,
oh, fuck. Maybe they got halfway through Hunger
Games and they're like, oh, fuck. Or maybe they
finished it and just snuck in. No, Hunger Games
ended when we left. There was a bunch of people
leaving at 1 a .m. Where are these people coming
from? It can't be the Trolls movie. Is there
an audience connected with Hunger Games and Die
Hard? I mean, I guess so. I don't know. Yeah.
I mean, the people leaving the Hunger Games theater
were all probably late in their teens. So what's
going on? Early 20s. I'm trying to show you this
with the green screen. Sunday, there is five
showings of Die Hard at the movie theater. Wow.
So that just tells me that they have nothing
else to show. Well, and Claire's out of town.
Okay. You should go. Well, you should go. Have
you seen Die Hard on the big screen? I have never
seen it on the big screen. Oh, my God. You should
do it. Just to kind of explain the method to
the madness here. We thought we would be in a
crowded theater and it would be a riot the way
that seeing Lord of the Rings live was. Do you
thought that? I did not think that at all. Well,
I thought there were going to be more people
and like people would be cheering and hooping
and hollering at all the right moments. But you
could do that with a two person theater. Oh,
yeah. We were. I wouldn't say we were like cheering,
but like, you know, we were able to chat and
it was fine. I was far enough away that like
we'd have to have been shouting for him to hear
us. But no, I had it was a fantastic time. And
if you have the opportunity to see a movie that
you really enjoy re -released in theaters and
the price point isn't too. egregious, I highly
recommend going. For my Stubbs membership, this
is worth it. There you go. No brainer. Especially
if you haven't seen it on the big screen. Honestly,
it is a lot of fun. It's not a brand new movie,
but there's things that you don't see on your
home screen that you see on a theater screen.
For example... Yes, I wanted to know this because
we talked about this in the chat. The thing that
really stood out to me is if you've seen Die
Hard, One of the appeals is that it's just an
expertly plotted out film. Everything kind of
is a Chekhov's gun that goes off at a different
time. And it's those details. So if you recall,
before he is tragically, his life is cut short,
Ellis, thinking he's going to be the hero, tries
to ingratiate himself with Hans. Goes into the
office. He's like, I can get you McLean. Hans,
boobie. Boobie, I'm your white knight. Yeah,
yeah, yeah. I'm your white knight. So punchable.
I can give them to you. It's just so good. So
at some point, he gets on the phone or the radio
with McLean. And while he's in the office, one
of the henchmen hand him a Coca -Cola. Well,
they crack the can and pour it out, pour it out.
Yeah, they hand him a Coca -Cola. Earlier in
the film, I guess almost our first introduction,
I think, to Ellis. It is his introduction. It's
him doing Coke in Holly's office. Holly's office,
yeah. So I asked Andre. Yep, yep, yep. So I asked
Andre, do you think he asked for Coke and they
thought he meant a soda? Coca -Cola, yeah. Besides
the fact it's market, it's product placement.
But like, is that the joke? I love that. Okay,
yep. I will also say. Another product placement
is they have that little like cafeteria at the
bottom. of the of the tower yes yes and one of
the goons like reaches in for a he gets a a crunch
yeah crunch yes i was just gonna say the only
candy you can tell what it is is crunch yeah
but dude steals two candy bars he does yeah yeah
i like in the theater i like shot him like yeah
you do it man you deserve that and then you work
hard and then 20 minutes later he just gets fucking
rocked point blake by john mcclain uh no it's
like all the bombastic moments just it hit you
a little bit bigger on the big screen you know
yeah it's awesome like but as soon as all the
plastic explosives go off and he shatters the
whole entire first floor of nakatomi plaza is
so good and it's just like the fbi just like
that all of like the the when they get to the
point where the police are trying to get involved
that are all outside and they obviously have
like the deputy chief is just sitting out there
just hating on john mcclain the whole time like
it almost becomes like airplane in a way like
the way it's goofy but like in a fun way you
know and the fact that the two fbi agents are
johnson and johnson no relation this is special
agent johnson no the other one the other one
it's just i mean it's it's just so it was a fun
experience it's exactly what i expected it to
be to see it on such a large screen and It was
worth staying up late for. Hey, would you look
at that? I just bought a ticket to the 10 o 'clock
show. Whoa, that's crazy. How did that happen?
10 .45, not going to lie. Yeah, well, yeah. I
mean, I thought about 7, but there's a chance
I might get invited to the Panthers game this
weekend. Oh, nice. And that's a 1 o 'clock kick.
So it's like I could make the 7, but it's just
pushing it a little too much where it's like,
all right, now I can have dinner. I can kind
of like take my time and then go see. die hard
in a movie theater that's four rows of just absolute
yeah yeah so this is our psa to see die hard
if you have not seen it and if you have seen
it and it's been a while watch it again yeah
and if you're like me and you watch it every
year and this is what gives you in the christmas
spirit just fucking do it i will i will say i
have much in the much more in the christmas spirit
exiting that theater even though it was like
what we got out like 2 a .m right 1 a .m when
it was like 1 15 yeah it's not christmas oh my
god it's not christmas until you see hans gruber
fall off nakatomi plaza that's right that's right
uh yeah so um let's see i mean do i have to give
die hard a rating i feel like i've given it a
rating before already yeah i mean this is it's
a it's it's it's five it's five i have a machine
gun ho ho ho is out of five like it's it's so
good so i could i didn't mean to like you don't
have to say it's a five i'm just saying i don't
but i don't disagree i think it's it's like it's
it's a perfect action film it's one of my favorite
blockbusters period like you know And like people
are just like, oh, well, I've seen movies like
this and don't realize this is the movie that
made those. Right. Yeah. You know, like it's
what progenitor it's the progenitor before like
not drive speed speed. Yes, exactly. Yeah. Yeah.
It's not at all a movie. It's not like, no, what?
Go for it. Oh, no. I just had a random thing.
Claire watched speed on her own the other night.
So I feel like I've succeeded as a husband. nice
because like we watched speed together and i
was just like oh you enjoyed it that much she
goes i actually really did i was like awesome
i haven't seen the first one i was about to say
i feel like a failure of a partner because i've
let we've let joe i've let joe watch speed too
without watching it with me i did not i couldn't
watch it no i gave you the out And I took it.
I was like, yeah, okay, sure. It's been a long
time on purpose that I didn't watch Speed 2,
but remembering that episode and hearing you
talk about it. I'm going to stand by my comment.
It's impressive to me that Sandra Bullock's career
survived that. Yeah, right? Seriously. Damn.
I feel like there's definitely some times where
you're just like, yeah, Sandra Bullock's career
probably should have ended there, there, there,
but it keeps going. Tammy didn't kill her. Is
that her? Yeah, Tammy. Or is that Melissa? That
was Melissa McCarthy. There's something with
a person's name. Well, there's All About Steve.
Yeah, that's it. Which we talked about. And then
there was the other one, too. The Heat. The Heat
was her and Melissa McCarthy. No. The Miami Heat
are a much better product than what they... There
was a movie, it was like a buddy cop movie called
The Heat that was Melissa McCarthy's a cop that
doesn't follow the rules. Sandra Bullock is a
cop that follows all the rules. They're thrown
together to solve the crime. I should just do
trailers now. Yeah, that was pretty good. You
know exactly what happens in that movie, I think.
Everything I need to know has been said. And
if I remember correctly, there's a conversation
that this is the only thing it took out of this
movie. There's a conversation about people that
wear granny panties versus thongs. And it feels
still accurate to this day. But that's all I
remember about that movie, I think. Okay. I don't
remember if it was even that one. The Heat. The
Heat. Don't see it. Don't see it. Watch Die Hard,
though. The funny thing is, I think the heat
is actually just barely good enough that it's
too good for the bad movie rating. Right. Like,
is it on the edge there? Like, would you call?
Yeah. Like, I think it's like a 60 audience score.
It is. It's a 6 .6 on IDB. I was just looking
that up. There it is. Run Tomatoes. 66. Yeah.
It's, you know. Yep. Just good enough to not
be bad. Damn. What a distinction. Yeah. Right.
All right. What else you guys got? Jill? Die
hard's a yes. Jill? Well, I watched two holiday
films for this session. One for Christmas, one
for Hanukkah. Or if you're Smokey Robinson, Chinooka.
Chinooka! Happy Chinooka, everybody. I just showed
her that cameo today, by the way. Oh my god.
I commented on it on TikTok, and I was like,
is that Chaka Khan's kid, Chinooka? So we'll
start with the newest of the two. I watched Amazon
Prime's Candy Cane Lane with Eddie Murphy at
the lead. And I should have brought up my notes.
Speaking of dead careers. No, his career is back
ever since Dolomite is my name, which is a fantastic
movie. Dolomite, yeah, okay. I'm glad that he
got something like that. Did you see that Beverly
Hills Cop 4 is happening? I've never seen Beverly
Hills Cop 1 to 3. I've never even seen Beverly
Hills Cop, yeah. Guys, you hurt me. I'm sorry.
I just got to be honest, you know? 3 is the worst,
and it's not worth the time, but 1 and 2, 1 especially
is great. Okay. Sorry, I'm going to go off on
a tangent here. This is one of my favorite lines
in cinema history. So he's a cop in Detroit.
He goes to Beverly Hills to help solve his friend's
murder. And he goes to this company that he's
pretty confident is the ones that put out the
hit on his buddy. And they basically, when he
goes to the company, the security throws him
out a window and then he gets arrested for disturbing
the peace. And in pure Eddie Murphy fashion,
he goes disturbing the peace. I got thrown out
a window. What do you get for getting thrown
out of a car? Jaywalking. But it's, it's a bunch
of good lines like that. So yeah. One liners.
Okay. All right. It's on the watch list. Yeah.
One and two, three and two. And that's it. Three
is okay, but just, you don't need to, it just
doesn't do anything. Sure. So yeah. Sorry. Candy
Cane Lane. Candy Cane Lane. As I said, Amazon
Prime's newest holiday film starring Eddie Murphy
and Tracy Ellis Ross in the leads. What is it
about? It is about the Carver family who live
in a neighborhood in California, I believe, that
hosts an annual Candy Cane Lane festival slash
competition. And the competition is who can decorate
the best house. And I guess this year is a special
year because this year there's a prize. And the
Carver family is determined to win it. So Chris
Carver, Eddie Murphy, he's going to do what he
has to do to win. Shenanigans ensue, including
an elf named Pepper. Yeah, Pepper. She pops up,
and I see Sophie behind Andre. Popped up. I will
say an elf named Pepper is better than the elf
in Elfman, who was named Elf. Do you know what
pepper is short for? Pepperoni? No. Do you want
to try again? Pepperchini? No, think Christmas.
Peppermint. Yeah. I was like, is this a bit?
Is this a bit? No, it ain't a bit. Peppermint.
So peppermint pops up into Chris Carver's life
and sells him a bunch of magical decorations,
including the piece de resistance. the 12 days
of christmas hence my beer the 12 dogs of christmas
that's a lot of birds wow it is a lot of birds
um what happens is that he makes a wish And because
you pay a price when you buy from Pepper, they
all get loose. And he has to work with his family
to round up the ornaments that have come to life.
Otherwise, he will be cursed and transformed
into a porcelain figurine, joining the fates
of one Nick Offerman, among others. Oh, my God.
I didn't realize Nick Offerman was in it. I didn't
realize Nick Offerman was in it until it ended.
He just keeps showing up and stuff, you know?
He just kind of is there. He's there. He does,
like, two days. 2023 was a great year for Nick
Offerman. Don't get me wrong. I feel like Nick
Offerman keeps doing, like, two days on set,
get paid, out of there. Yep, yep, yep. Yeah,
this was probably a two -day on set deal. Like,
his character Pip, they don't name her outright.
Is that shirt for Pippermint? No, Pip, just Pip.
Pipperoni? Pippercini? They play it like his
character is from, like, Dickensian England.
Okay. And he has an accent, which is why I didn't
realize he was there. the whole movie um but
you know it was it was fun great crochet movie
to sit on the couch crochet as it goes um it
was funny i'm not gonna lie i had a couple laughs
with this i would say it doesn't you know it's
it's a new film so nostalgia is not there but
if you like films like the santa claus that kind
of have that little extra christmas magic and
if you think about the plot too hard it kind
of all falls apart yeah it was great It's a great
viewing experience. So I'm glad you say something
like that, because I feel like this movie, when
I saw a commercial for it, it feels very Jingle
All the Way -esque, where it doesn't have high
ratings, but it's just a fun, turn your brain
off kind of Christmas movie. Yeah, it hits all
the things that you want from a Christmas movie
that's intended for families slash all ages.
Yeah, okay. And Eddie Murphy is... almost funny
in everything that he does Pluto Nash no um but
I still submit he was funny in that it just was
the script wasn't everything else just the problem
um he bounces off really well with the supporting
cast him and Tracy Ellis Ross are really funny
together um Jillian Bell who plays Pepper she's
also really really funny um as well as the other
supporting cast there are other characters in
there his family has more of a role um I didn't
get into it too much but it's a it's it's a night
if you have access to it and you want something
on in the background give it a shot yes what's
great i don't want to say too much about santa
claus i'm actually you got me more intrigued
than i thought i would be about this movie including
pepperoni I'm still mad at myself that it took
that long to get the peppermint. Well, you know,
sometimes it just doesn't come to you, you know?
And if you love the 12 Days of Christmas, the
song, you're going to really like this movie
because you hear that a lot. There really are
a lot of birds. You don't appreciate how many
birds until you visually have it in front of
you. You get to the fifth day and you're like,
finally, some rings and then six swans swimming.
God damn it. More birds. Is that actually the
order? I'm having it right in front of me, but
it's not ideal. Two turtle doves. Three French
hens. Four... More birds, I know it. Four...
I don't know. Calling birds. Calling birds. Okay.
And it's six geese, or it's six geese a lane
because seven swans are swimming. No, five is
five golden rings. I know that. You didn't say
it. I know that. Five fucking golden rings. We
all know five fucking golden rings. Yeah, we
all know that one, Jill. Come on. That's the
one we all know. Okay. Six geese a lane, seven
swans are swimming, and I think there's no more
birds after that. Are you going to finish? No,
I'm not going to finish. There are no more birds
after that. You are correct. So six of the first
seven days are birds. It's a lot of birds. It's
a lot of birds. Lords of Leaping is 10. Yep.
Maids of Milking is eight. I'm not going to lie.
The Lords of Leaping scene in the movie is fun.
It also made my head hurt. Like that. Okay. If
you think about it too hard. Um, but yeah, uh,
out of, out of five, I'd give this, uh, it's
not the right number, but I'm going to use it
anyway. Cause the scene was weird in a funny
way is, uh, I'm going to give it a 4 .1, uh,
maids of Milken. Oh, I mean, if we did go to
the 10 scale, you would be right. Cause it's
eight maids of Milken. So, so, all right, I'll,
I'll take it. There's a cow and there's milk
and that's all I'll say. What other holiday movie,
because we need to talk about this one, for Hanukkah
did you watch? I needed to represent my heritage,
so I went to the film catalog of famous Hanukkah
movies. Now, if you're thinking, dear listener,
that, oh, there's so many to choose from, how
did you decide? No, it turns out there really
isn't that much to choose from unless you kind
of stretch that. So I decided to go back in time.
to early 2000s to a film I used to really love.
That is Adam Sandler's first animated movie,
Eight Crazy Nights. He's made another one since?
Hotel Transylvania. Oh, yeah. He's made four.
I'm counting that as its own container. I know,
but he's made four of those. Right, right, right.
He might have more, actually, but keep going.
I'll look that up. If you are on the younger
side, maybe you don't really understand the...
how big a thing adam sandler was in the late
90s early 2000s he had nicole frow whitey um
yeah this was 2002 so i think his peak was it
we're on the decline kind of now um the big hitters
had already come out um the wedding singer um
uh little nicky i think came out roughly around
this time that's not a that's not a winner For
the record, I'm not saying Little Nicky is the
shit. Big Daddy, I think, came out roughly around
now. I will say that Little Nicky is actually
in his top four on IMDb. The four that pop up
at the top. Where's 50 First Dates? That should
be up there. That's a great Adam Sandler film.
I'm just now realizing. 50 First Dates was actually
my first date ever, but that is not in his top
four. Can you guess the top four, Little Nicky
being one of them? Happy Gilmore? Nope. Punch
Drunk Love? Nope. Mr. Deeds? Nope. Billy Madison?
Nope. What? Click? Nope. We're just riffing here.
Uncut Gems? Nope. I got nothing. Oh, it's Hotel
Transylvania? Nope. Grown Ups? Nope. Jack and
Jill? Nope. All of these are 90s movies. Wait,
say this again. What are we guessing? The top
four on his IMDb page, like the movies he's known
for. This is not necessarily saying best. We
just named a bunch of movies he was known for.
I understand. What are you talking about, man?
These are all 90s movies. The Longest Yard. Nope.
Murder Mystery. Huh? Waterboy. Murder Mystery.
No, it's all 90s movies. I named a bunch of murder
90s films. No, we were mostly in the 2000s. Wedding
Singer, there you go. I said Happy Gilmore and
Billy Madison. You did, but neither one are correct.
Wedding Singer's in there. Wedding Singer, Waterboy,
Little Nicky, you got one more. I got nothing.
We're not grown -ups. Nope. Not the longest yard.
I'm going, I'm like scrolling down now. Cause
he's just, she's just like, just cheating. I
was like, I don't know. I needed to bring this
up for my, my piece, which got interrupted cone
heads. I'm sorry. We were talking about Adam
Sandler. No, it's not cone heads either. I didn't
even know it was in cone heads. Joe dirt. He
wasn't in cone heads. He was in air heads. And
no, he's not in Joe dirt. He is in cone heads.
Oh yeah. All right. Fine. Yeah. Yep. There's
all right. No, he produced Master of Disguise.
The hot chick? Nope. Okay, give us the... Yeah,
come on. This is anger management. Nope. Come
on. That's it. Big Daddy. He said that. Big Daddy?
When? I thought I said Big Daddy. Somebody played
the... When you do the recording, somebody said
Big Daddy. I'll listen back. I don't think anybody
said Big Daddy. Roll the tape. Roll the tape.
Roll the tape. I'm just realizing, and this might
be extremely obvious. and maybe that like i'm
pointing out something very i was like so is
adam sandler like always been this connected
to basketball like because we got yes he loves
basketball we got um oh my god hustle thank you
and then uncut gems i didn't realize that this
that eight crazy nights was also a hidden basketball
why why we were talking about the man himself
the band for the like what let's bring it back
yeah crazy nights it's a hanukkah story it's
a holiday story it's a basketball movie as well
it's many really is a basketball movie right
i didn't know i didn't know that i had no idea
basketball had anything to do with this movie
at all and it's kind of impressive how much they
squeeze in 76 minutes not including probably
let's say three minutes no it's more than that
five minutes for the ending credits um but what
is it about well it's about davey stone a 33
something I don't know why I said something because
he is 33. A 33 -year -old man -baby. A 33 -something.
Exactly 33, but you know something. An exactly
33 -something man -baby who doesn't know how
to deal with his grief and trauma as he drinks
his life away in the town of, fictional town,
of Dukesburg, New Hampshire. New Hampshire is
also the location of the headquarters for Billy
Madison or Happy Gilmore Productions, as I found
out today. Happy Madison. It's also a musical.
The way that all digital animated movies are,
they're musicals. Did this movie hold up? Debatable.
I was just going to say, I don't know if I feel
like it is. I say questionable not because it's
risque or foul language. I say more because of
fat shaming, racist stereotypes, and some feces
licking deer. I was just going to say, the deer,
I remember them shitting everywhere. So the very
short summary is Davy Stone is fucking up his
life. He's drinking it away. At the start of
Hanukkah, he gets into an altercation with the
police and they basically say it's either community
service or you're going to jail. And the very
nice weirdo of the town, Whitey Duvall, offers
to take him under his wing and, you know, make
Davy the man he's supposed to be rather than
the fuck up. As you can imagine, in Adam Sandler
fashion, it. is foul -mouthed, gassy, and full
of poop jokes as Whitey struggles to connect
with this sad, sad man -baby. But over the course
of the movie, Davey learns things about himself.
He learns to cry. Whitey gets a patch, because
he's a great guy that everybody makes fun of.
And his sister looks like an owl without her
wig on. This was originally Jack and Jill before
Jack and Jill happened, I feel like. Well, because,
like, Whitey and Eleanor, yeah. So, this movie,
like i said this movie doesn't really hold up
but i remember really liking the songs and i
have to say they kind of do technical foul um
the opening song uh i have to look at the the
soundtrack um davy's song uh long ago uh the
bum bitty bitty bum bum song where they kind
of the town these are all really good songs and
adam sandler at this time was known for the hanukkah
song so like him and music kind of go together
i'm not going to call him a weird al yankovic
type but he definitely played with that shtick
for a while and those hold up really really well
yeah i would agree this is my flavor of stupid
But in 2023, it's not impossible to watch, but
it's definitely not something I would put on
and be like, guys, I have to share with you my
Hanukkah favorite right now because I think I'd
get a lot of looks. Yeah, right. What would be
the Hanukkah favorite, though? That's the question.
I should have looked this up, movies about Hanukkah.
I know specials from Nickelodeon that I really
liked as a child. I was going to say the Rugrats.
Rugrats. Hey Arnold had Harold, who's Jewish.
Wasn't Ginger, like As Told by Ginger, wasn't
there a Hanukkah special in that one? I don't
remember. Man, As Told by Ginger, I haven't thought
about that show in forever. Great show and great
theme song. The only reason I think about it
is because she was Ginger and Ginger's rule.
There you go. Fair enough. Full Court Miracle,
the DCOM. That's a pretty good Hanukkah movie.
Oh, there you go. I totally forgot about that
one. It stars Lamont Carr, basketball legend.
Basketball legend. Rossum Delancey is a good
movie, but I haven't seen that for years. This
list is counting an American tale as a Hanukkah
movie. It's an immigrant story. It's an immigrant
story, and they were Jewish, but I don't think
it's Hanukkah. Same with Fiddler on the Roof
and American Pickle. I wouldn't call those Hanukkah
movies either. No, they're just Jewish movies.
Yeah, I mean, it looks like there's some... All
right, there is a Joseph Gordon -Levitt, Seth
Rogen, and Anthony Mackie film called The Night
Before. The Night Before, yeah. I remember that
one. I never saw it. Really, of all these, I'm
looking at a list. There are some... Looks like
Hallmark movies, like Menorah's in the Middle.
That came out last year, I think. Oh, God. Mistletoe
and Menorah's. Eight Gifts of Hanukkah. All of
these sound like made -for -TV movies. Yeah,
they do. Eight Crazy Nights and possibly... um
the night before might be the best of them and
knowing nothing about the night before i would
say a crazy nights might be the only good things
about the night before like it's not great but
it's like fine enough i don't know maybe not
stupid maybe sorry crazy night might be the like
the only way like legitimate hanukkah movie that's
actually about hanukkah and i don't know if i'm
proud to have that be there The representative.
Lamb chops Hanukkah. It's a great children's
special from the 90s. Highly recommend. Hey,
crazy knights. Listen to the soundtrack. Yeah,
enjoy the music. Some of the jokes, though, they
still land. Yeah. All of Technical Foul is hilarious.
Especially the facial animations that they put
on the characters. And this is not the best animation.
This is not Studio Ghibli. This is not Into the
Spider -Verse. It's not crude, but... It's bad,
though. It's like King of the Hill level animation,
but with a better budget. Maybe. I don't really
watch King of the Hill. Andre, what do you think?
What? King of the Hill? The animation for A Crazy
Night. Oh, sorry. The animation. I don't know.
It looked like Osmosis Jones is what I commented
on. I meant to look up. But like low budget,
obviously. I don't know. Like not low, but but
like to me, it just looked like the cartoon parts
of Osmosis. Oh, no. You know what? As a framework.
Is it? Okay. Yeah. You know what? Okay. No. So
a slight addendum to that. Not the not the movie
Osmosis Jones, but the cartoon TV series that
they made afterwards. Ozzie and Drix. yes that's
what i was thinking of in my head no um andre
it's uh it's nickelodeon because nickelodeon
had the freaking um well warner bros owns was
the production so oh really oh wait no it wasn't
nickelodeon then it was on fucking kids wb it
was on kids wb it was on kids wb yes gosh i'm
getting my My after school animation blocks all
kerfuffles. I don't want to watch some Batman
Beyond and the Zeta Project. All of Batman Beyond
is on Max, just so you know. As somebody who
recently rewatched it all. You know what's not
on Max? The fucking Watchmen series they put
out a few years ago. It's such bullshit, dude.
They took them off. You know what else is not
on Max? Dream scenario, but you can see it in
theaters. I'm going to talk to you all about
dream scenario. I'm going to try not to give
any spoilers because I highly recommend seeing
it. It is a weird movie. Do not get me wrong.
I'm not suggesting it. You're going to have like
a great time with it. You're going to question
yourself. You're going to have some weird thoughts,
especially about Paul Matthews played by one
Sir Nicholas Cage. Yes. Nick Cage and A24 is
a match made in heaven that I never knew I wanted.
And it makes complete sense. This was produced
by Ari Aster. You know him from Hereditary, Midsommar,
that kind of stuff. Basically, what the premise
of this is, is normal everyday man, Paul Matthews,
played by Nicolas Cage, rocking like a bald cap
and the hair around and everything like that.
He starts showing up in people's dreams. And
it's not just like one or two people. It's like
hundreds of millions of people he shows up in
their dreams. Originally, it's nothing big. He
just kind of shows up and hangs out. And then
it starts getting weird and creepy. And there's
people that don't trust him anymore. And it's
just kind of his life spiraling out of control
for something he couldn't even control himself
of being in people's dreams. Interesting. I had
a really interesting time with it. I liked it
overall, and Nick Cage's performance is excellent.
It's very strange. Okay. Not going to lie. Especially
some of it's very awkward. Intentionally so?
Yes. Not to go too deep into it, but one of these
people had a sex dream about him. And you do
see the sex dream. Not the sex itself, but the
beginnings of it. Do they show all of it? It
is rated R, so they do get into some of it, but
there's a part where it's like, okay, this is
kind of... You don't need a Nicolas Cage sexy
in your life? No, and especially with the person
it's with, too. It's a much younger female. I
will say is of age, but it is. Yeah. And especially
the way they make his character look, it's uncomfortable.
So yeah, that's dream scenario. It is. Like I
said, I'm not going to dive too deep into this,
but I highly recommend seeing it just more so
because the concept's interesting. The Nicholas
Cage performance is worth it. His wife. played
by Julianne Nicholson. She was fantastic in it,
too. And honestly, everybody was really good
in this. There's a lot of good castings. Tim
Meadows is in it, and he is like... So Paul is
a professor at a university, and Tim Meadows
is like the dean of the college. And he's hysterical
in it. I actually really like him a lot because
he just keeps putting his foot in his mouth saying
stupid shit. But yeah, that's Dream Scenario
in a nutshell before you guys actually see it.
Because I just don't want to say too much because
even the little bit I've said feels like you're
revealing a little bit. Sure, right. But you
want to go in blind. Yeah, you want to go in
blind. And I did a good job of this. I did not
watch any previews, really. the little bit i
saw was like five seconds worth before i either
skipped it changed the channel whatever because
i knew i knew the premise and i knew that was
nick cage and i was like ah man you're lucky
that you got to kind of ignore or sidestep the
trailers i there was a trailer promotion that
i ran constantly for a couple weeks before it
came out yeah and i saw it a fair amount um yeah
i still i don't think i have a full understanding
of what the film is so like i think i could still
go in and be very surprised and from what you're
suggesting there's more that meets the eye here
right tends to be with ari aster aster yes yeah
um ari aster's films yeah that's good and i'll
also say that i think i've seen trailers after
i saw the movie they did a good job of not revealing
too much I think you definitely could have seen
the trailer and still really enjoyed this and
not been like you wouldn't have had anything
spoiled for you, really. Right. So it's they
did a good job with that. But it was very good
movie. It's it's I like the ending a lot for
what they were trying for. So, like I said, I
left there kind of going, I don't know what the
message of this movie was. uh but at the same
time i just enjoyed it and i had a good time
with it so um i'll give it 3 .5 out of 5 uh i
don't know dreams i guess but i was gonna say
dream sequences dream sequences dream scenarios
they do say dream scenario once uh so it's a
very roll credits situation cool yeah and i will
say as well um Who else was in it? There's a
person trying to sell him like a book deal or
something like that. I think it was Michael Cera.
Oh, really? Michael Cera's in this? I think so.
Speaking of. Andre, what's your cue? Was that
my cue? Yes, Michael Cera is in this. Okay, there
we go. Yeah, so there's your cue, buddy. Okay,
you know what else Michael Cera was also in like
almost 14 years ago? Scott Pilgrim vs. the World.
Hey, whoa. Everybody remember that movie, right?
Yeah? Hey, huh? Love that movie. I could have
sworn we talked about it on this very podcast.
We definitely have. Probably have. Yeah, because
Jill and I rewatched it. Claire still hasn't
seen it. Oh, really? I don't know if Claire would
like it. I was about to say, like, it doesn't
seem like a Claire movie. You think so? Would
she? I think so, yeah. Okay. Okay. Just in the...
better than us yeah just in the sheer fact of
who's in the movie yes i was just about to say
like it's such a retroactively fun movie to watch
because michael it's like the inverse of the
stardom of the cast where michael cera is the
one big star and it's a bunch of other not no
names they were so well known but it's like everybody
got super huge after that you know they really
really did i mean who else was in that movie
that had a big name at that time maybe chris
evans maybe Not even, though. Like, yeah, he
was human torch. Well, he was human torch. Brie
Larson had been kicking around for a while, but
not big, big. But, like, that same year, I think
she was in an episode of Community that, like,
you know, TV, slumming it on TV. Jason Schwartzman
might have been a semi. Jason Schwartzman, okay.
Brandon Routh. Brandon Routh was Superman by
that point. Yes, that's true. Yeah, Aubrey Plaza
wasn't. No, because Parks and Rec maybe was just
first season in or something like that. Anna
Kendrick was probably a fairly decent size name.
Anna Kendrick was in Twilight at that point,
I'm pretty sure. Anna Kendrick has also been
bopping around Hollywood for a bit because she
was in an indie film called Camp. I remember
I recognized Anna Kendrick in Scott Pilgrim.
Anyways, hey, you know what? Those crazy sons
of bitches, they went and made an animated series
of it called Crazy Sons of Bitches. uh with called
scott pilgrim takes off and it has like you know
the big thing that they make sure you know is
that it has everybody like every like they brought
back everybody from the movie cast right like
they got chris evans they got michael cera they
got jason schwartzman they got they got brie
larson they got um they even freaking said they
got mary elizabeth winstead i don't feel like
they got the vegan police they did not get the
vegan police the vegan police yeah i can't say
anyone right we can't say anything but um they
freaking brought metric back which is great i
love that um the they're the one who plays the
song yeah oh yeah i know yeah okay okay got it
all right sweet yeah they bring i know who they
are okay great well i don't know man shit man
just make sure we are sex my mom yeah yeah uh
scott pilgrim takes off uh why why should you
see it if you've seen the live action movie it's
because this is a completely they're they're
doing it's I can't say too much, but it's not
a movie. This is also a thing where we're checking
in, we're six out of eight episodes deep, but
I will say A, it's a lot of fun and worth watching,
but B, do not watch it as your first intro to
Scott Pilgrim. Read the graphic novel or watch
the movie. Yeah, of the two, I would say the
movie is probably more accessible. Before interacting
with this show. I feel like that's the biggest
thing. This is not an entry point, I don't think.
Remind me, what is it on? netflix netflix okay
i thought so but i just couldn't remember yeah
yeah um as i said it if you've seen the movie
and you're thinking well why would i want to
watch the same thing it's it's just stick around
it's not right yeah yeah yeah and um yeah i will
say like this so a the animation is fun it's
not like super high let me like it looks like
arcane what's that It's not going to look like
Arcane. Well, it's traditionally animated or
rather, you know, it's 2D animation, which I
like. Like, we don't see enough of that anymore,
really. And I mean, like, it definitely kind
of has like an anime dialogue pacing, you know
what I mean? Where characters will over -remote
and will have awkward pauses and conversation
and stuff like that. It's very much done on purpose.
It's just so surreal hearing these Hollywood
actors. do it right you know like it's fucking
weird to have avery plaza like doing like an
anime yell at somebody you know like like like
telling off fucking um macaulay culkin you know
what i mean like it's just like kieran culkin
kieran culkin sorry i'm okay fuck i was like
ron culkin arguably the more famous culkin brother
at this point um macaulay's got his star on the
walk of fame now it's true it's true and the
catholic hero was there too thank you yeah he'll
get one but yeah uh but like it's and then like
honestly like chris evans is like one of the
highlights of this show like he he can he really
i think he's really excited to be there maybe
i don't know whatever like he definitely goes
out for some of this stuff though he does i have
if you haven't seen this in 2020 the cast reunited
and did a live script read and they brought in
the original um the creator scott pilgrim the
graphic novel for to raise charity along with
edgar wright and nice I think this may have been
the first time that the cast had reunited properly.
I think there was an insinuation that there's
an active text chat that they have kept up. Yeah.
But they were all so excited to see each other
and just be in the space. And Chris Evans had
to leave at some point, but he hung on the call
until he had to go. Yeah, right. And it was it
was just so wholesome. So I wonder if this was
sorry. Oh, no, you're good. I feel like this
project was like a lot of fun and that people
like that, like they love the movie afterwards,
too. So they just feel connected to this product,
too. Yeah. The movie came out when we were at
the right age to see it, too. So, like, I feel
like this film definitely got a second life from
the people who enjoyed it, like me and Andre.
I also wonder if that cast reunion for the script
read. I wonder if that was kind of the jump,
the catalyst of like, could we do this again
with these people? Cause I feel like an attempt
at Scott Pilgrim without this cast, it would
have been a bear. Like I think they could have
done it, but I think it would also have been
an obstacle for them to get around. Cause people
would just be comparing. Right. The movie. For
sure. Yeah. I will say just as like a closing
thought, I do really like this show a lot without,
I can't get into spoilers, but. it gives a lot
of the cast from the, from the movie, especially
maybe not so much the graphic novel. Cause I
had more time, but like it gave, it gives a lot
more character moments to characters that you
barely got to know in the movie. Yeah. Right.
That's why I'm saying it's, it's not in the movie.
Yes. Right. And it's like, at first I was like
kind of pissed. It wasn't the movie, but like,
then I've kind of like, I've caught it back and
enjoy where it takes you. If you're, if you,
if it strikes you is what I would say. Yeah.
Not like the movie. I don't know if you are.
No. Oh, no. I've got to imagine no. Big disclaimer
on that. It's the same. It's not. This is not
at all. I don't know if your love of Chris Evans
or Michael Cera is enough of a reason to sit
through this show. Definitely not. Yeah. But
listen to the opening theme song. What about
my love of Mary Elizabeth Winstead? Oh, yeah.
Well, she's there in spades, man. She's she's.
Yeah. Yeah. Apparently. Apparently. So a like.
So her husband, Ewan McGregor. is yeah yeah that's
her husband i learned something new today yeah
apparently and i literally just read this today
and whatever from like some i just saw get him
in on this come on yeah yeah right well apparently
he he like wears a ramona flower shirt like when
they're out in public around that says like i'm
in lesbians with her that's what amaria elizabeth
winstead says like yeah yeah yeah so it's like
he's obviously a fan of scott pilgrim i guess
right so there you go right that's adorable yeah
make him the eighth evil x that'd be great yes
put him in there somehow yeah right right you
can find a way come on now especially with him
if he wants to be a part of it make it happen
yeah uh and also okay random also straight thought
light the license music in this show like fucking
rules like they have they have a really good
set list going and um yeah i don't know obviously
like Scott Pilgrim is so intertwined with music
and video games and stuff. All of the music references,
I think, are pretty lovingly put in there. It's
solid. It's a really fun show. I'm happy Netflix
pulled this one off. We haven't finished it yet,
so I don't want to give it a rating because maybe
the last two episodes really sucked. Yeah, I
hope not. Yeah, I tank it somehow. I know. I'm
so bad at binging, man. I feel like I wasn't
built for this kind of era of streaming. I feel
like everyone's already watched this show that
wanted to, and I'm just like, oh, we're getting
through it. Meanwhile, I love binging things.
I can't do it. It's my thing. See, I'm not a
binger. I'm a movie person. Two hours in, out,
done, on with life. Right. I didn't have time
to talk about it really, and I'm not going to
go into it too much, but I didn't binge all three
of the Doctor Who specials, but I watched them
as soon as they became available. Yeah, okay.
I don't know if that calls it binging, but they're
good if you're a fan of Doctor Who and maybe
left because you didn't like the writing for
Jodie Whittaker. Come back on in. It's fun. See,
the writing sucked for Jodie, and I feel so bad
because I love her. I tried. I watched like three
episodes and I'm like, I do not like this. What's
the vibe on the new Doctor coming in? People
are excited. I can't say his name correctly yet.
I thought it was pronounced one way, but it's
not the way I thought it was. And I've only heard
it pronounced with very Scottish accents. He
was in Sex Education. Okay. I don't want to attempt
it because I didn't watch it. The magic card
they made for him is pretty nutty, by the way.
He's going to be a fun doctor. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He looks like he's going to have a good time.
Yeah, I'm here for it. Kuti Gatwa? I think it's
pronounced Kuti because David Tennant was not
saying the NC part or the N part. Okay. The specials
are great. Neil Patrick Harris shows up in the
final one. And I recall, I don't know if this
is true. I recall that there was discourse that
if they ever like. needed an american to be the
doctor they brought dr who to america and they
did it that way he would be a good contender
for the doctor he's great as a villain he brings
that like olaf energy from the series of unfortunate
offense mini series that netflix did um and it's
it's great uh katherine tate as donna noble is
back and it's lovely um and i had a really good
time with dr and i haven't been able to say that
for a long time so i'm a fan nice I don't have
much to say about this. I'm just going to make
this quick just because there was another movie
I wanted to talk about with Nicolas Cage. Nicolas
Cage is Dracula in Renfield. Yes. Is that a Christmas
movie? No. No, but it is a Nick Cage movie. It
is a Nick Cage movie. I get that. It has Ben
Schwartz in it. How's Ben Schwartz in there?
He's great. He's a goofy character. I like him
a lot, actually. I love it. It also has Nicolas
Holt. Yes, it does. Nicholas Holt's fantastic
as well. A .K .A. Lex Luthor, right? Nicholas
Holt? Yes. A .K .A. Lex Luthor and the Guniverse.
A .K .A. Nux from Mad Max. Yeah. Yes. Wow. Yeah.
Nicholas Holt doing stuff, man. Doing the damn
thing. Yeah. And also my favorite part of the
menu. If you haven't seen the menu. I guess now
he'll be, he was an X -Men and now he's a DC
guy, so. Good for you. He's not going to be brought
back in. Renfield and Dream Scenario gave me
two more checklists on my 94 Nick Cage movies
that I have printed out. Okay, hold on, hold
on. If your green screen wasn't cutting it out,
I need to make sure that the Humanity Bureau
is fucking on there, man. The Humanity Bureau
is on there. The Magician's Apprentice? The Magician's
Apprentice is on there. I can assure you the
Magician's Apprentice is a much more watchable
film. Is Ian Stark a new freak, or is that John
C. Reilly? John C. Reilly, yes. This is rated.
I will send you a picture of this, but this is
rated top. Critics score on Rotten Tomatoes 1
through 94. Okay. Oh, okay. That's how you rated
it. Okay. Got it. Yes. And I'm at 1, 2, 3, 4,
5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17,
18, 19, 20, 21, 21 of 94. Okay. Have you seen
Moonstruck yet? I have not. And that's third
on there. There you go. Moonstruck is so fun.
And like, sure. Chef's kiss. Yeah. I have seen
the first two. The top five are Pig. Into the
Spider -Verse, Moonstruck, Face -Off, and Dream
Scenario. So I've seen three of the five. I've
not seen Face -Off. I know a lot of people give
me a hard time for that. It's more so because
I've just seen, I think I've seen it as a whole.
Sure, right. Just in chunks. Yep, yep, yep. It's
a long movie. It's a fun movie. It's longer than
you'd think it'd be. Right. And that's the thing
is, I think I've seen the entire thing just in
chunks. But yeah, Renfield, I will give a three
out of five, just more so because the story falls.
But it's a lot of fun seeing Nick Cage beat Dracula.
Nicholas Holt's great. Ben Schwartz is even fun.
Where is that now? Prime Video. Okay, cool. Yeah,
we definitely should watch it. Like I said, it's
part of Prime. You don't have to rent it or anything.
No, no, no. It's part of Prime. Bloody is all
hell. As you can imagine from a vampire movie,
it should be. But like action blood. Okay. And
then Awkwafina's in it, too. I don't know if
you knew that or not. I completely forgot she
was in there. You know what she's also in? Kung
Fu Panda 4. Is she? Why are we talking about
Kung Fu Panda 4? Because we're talking about
Awkwafina, I'm just saying. They just released
a trailer. Did they? Yeah, without the Furious
5, though. I don't think they're going to bring
the Furious 5 back. I mean, I think it'd be hard
to get Angelina Jolie back. it's tigress i guess
why not what is she doing yeah right like taking
care i don't know saving humanity um she's the
one i'm like she could be doing that everybody
else i'm like where are they going but the thing
is that tigress's characters kind of come full
circle by the third film okay sure but you know
i'm i'm all for bringing the furious five stop
for yawning but i'm gonna have to watch this
trailer i wonder who else is gonna be showing
up i wonder if simu lu is gonna be in it Ooh,
that'd be a good pick. I like that. Ryan Cranston
coming back? I need Simu Liu in more things.
I need him in more things, too. He's a fine -looking
man and a great actor. I've been also true. Fine
-looking man. Showed up in the Game Awards, man.
Kiki Kwan's gonna be in it! Yay! all right well
