Uh, yeah.

I didn't know what this coast you were going to be on. Oh yeah. Yeah. I keep it mysterious. You know, when I, I get boats, you know, I'll, I'll say I'm Albuquerque, but I'm really just back in New York. I never travel y'all. You have one, you mentioned one podcast in your bio on twitter but i was also told that you have another podcast is this true you have two podcasts yeah so i have two podcasts the first one is medium popcorn uh which is one of the most insane movie review podcasts out uh just listen to our theme

song and debate me if you don't think it's the greatest one ever. And then Drunk Black History, which is also a live show that's coming back this month to celebrate Juneteenth. And essentially, my co-host and I, we celebrate unspoken Black heroes in American history that just haven't gotten their due yet. So we try to give them their flowers. Yeah, I mean, it's like all of them, right? All of the Black heroes. Absolutely. Including OJ. you got your work cut off that's great and thank you for being here i appreciate that you're uh you know a listener to the show and um how do you think how do you think you'll hold up trivia wise you're good at movie trivia i i sometimes would get into trivia,

but if I start sweating in my, my palms, I might be in trouble. Um, cause that's when the anxiety kicks in and, uh, the doctor did not give me new meds. So it's going to be,

uh, it's going to be interesting. Well, these, you know, you're up, you're up against two of the most competitive dudes I know. And when I say that, I'm being sarcastic. He is a frequent guest on the show

and co-host of Wide World of Dugs, one of my other podcasts. Doug Mellard is here. Hello, Doug. Hey, buddy. It's been a couple days. How are you doing? Yeah, we were just talking to... Who were we talking to? Proops?

Proops. Greg Proops. That's right. That was a fun one. We were just talking to Pro Proops? Proops. Greg Proops. That's right. That was a fun one. We were just talking to Proops a few days ago. So coming up next, Douglas Movies listeners will enjoy this. The next guest on the Wide World of Dugs is going to be none other than Scott Aukerman. Ooh. Yeah. So Doug and I are both busy writing questions for him.

Yeah. Doug and I are both busy writing questions for him. Yeah. Also joining us is the star of the new Sparks Brothers movie, the movie called Sparks Brothers. It's Jonah Ray. Hey. Hey, everybody.

It's me from the Sparks doc. How much do you show up in it? You know i i don't want to ruin this ruin the surprise that people will feel when they go to watch the stark style i just like you know you tell me how much i'm in it and then uh that'll be fun for you to figure it out it could be anywhere between you know uh 15 minutes to uh not at all wait now i'm thinking you're not in it at all why did i think you were in it i don't know i think maybe maybe you think i'm you know cooler than i am i think maybe that's it that's it yeah you're not pat nussbaum yeah that's right yeah yeah i wonder is there just some guy that looks like me that you might have seen in the

in the trailer i think i yeah maybe maybe that, or I thought, uh, cause there's a lot of quick talking heads in it. So that's why I was kind of joking around that you're the star in it. Cause even if you were in it, you'd like a sentence probably. So, but you only got cut out a little bit. Yeah. I don't know I just jumped to conclusions because you know

I think of you as a music guy in the world of comedy I mean you know they talked Jake Fogelnest is in it like so why wouldn't you be in it that's a good point you know I don't know why I wasn't in it maybe it's because I never really got into Sparks I mean I like

them fine you know i think uh their their song uh that was covered by crucial taunt is a really good one you know ballroom blitz yeah no they're great and they will yeah and so uh sorry that i i mean i'm glad we gave them another i might as well say again the movie comes out on june 18th I might as well say again, the movie comes out on June 18th. I mean, it looks great. I'm excited for it. Edgar is excited for his first doc. It is great. It might be, for me, top five movie docs, music docs that I've ever seen.

Because it's done so creatively. There's, they're interesting to learn about because cause you are learning about them. Like no matter even Sparks fans, there's tons of stuff they don't know about them. So it's a, and they've been making music for so long that, uh, it's, it's a, it's a great documentary and, uh, you know, Yeah. I'm very proud of it. I'm very, very proud of it. I'm very proud to know that I very very proud i'm very proud to know that i know someone that was almost in it yeah but i'll get people who were really in it

on the show sometime soon just to you know just to uh just to be proper about it yeah yeah yeah and then you'll ask them about mystery science theater 3000 yeah i'm gonna say i'm gonna get edgar wright on here and say, hey, man, do you like talking to those robots on that show? Real quick before we get into the first thing we do before the next thing we're going to do, the BO report is that summer is now here, so stock up on deodorant. Stupid joke.

We are going to take a quick break, and then we're going to visit Recommendation Nation. We'll be right back. We're back. It's time to visit Recommendation Nation. We're back. It's time to visit Recommendation Nation. And if you guys don't know what this means, I would like each of you to recommend one movie and one movie only that you think people would enjoy and that you think is better than the movies that the other two people are going to say. Because then I pit the three movies against each other on the douglas movies twitter account

and people vote and we determine once and for all which of the three is the best it's absolutely meaningless but also fun who wants to go first doug uh well i've still kind of been on my bad movies quarantine kick so i think I'm going to get beat because it's just going to be another Roadhouse like movie I'm continuing because you're going to recommend it so you're

don't recommend a movie that is bad I can recommend a great bad movie that's still fun there's only Roadhouse when we're talking great bad movies but go ahead that's what do you also think is a great bad movie here's another great bad movie that i rediscovered i hadn't seen it since childhood but hard target starring van damme okay i'll give you that one you get wilford grimley on a horse riding away from an explosion

it doesn't get better than that. I mean, Jean-Claude Van Damme finds an excuse to do the splits in pretty much every movie. But doing it between two parking meters, which there are never two that are that close together in the first place. But doing it between two parking meters is impressive. I think he does it in that movie. Yeah. He also punches a snake and knocks it out with one punch. It's pretty good. Or maybe does he do

it on two of those kind of old-fashioned horse posts that are still on the streets? Oh, yeah. For whatever reason, on the streets of New Orleans. Yeah. Very well. Great.

It's a fun... His acting's. Great. But it's just a, it's a fun, you know, his acting's not great. And, uh, you know, the story's not great, but it's still a fun movie to watch for sure. Oh yeah.

Give it a whirl. All right. Uh, let's go to Jonah. What do you, what do you think, Jonah? Do you want to recommend a movie that you think is better than hard target?

Sure. Oh man. If this is, I'm rocking my brain now. Uh, what could be better than hard target sure oh man if this is i'm racking my brain now uh what could be better than hard target um the movie that uh i don't know how i missed growing up uh but i've i found and it's a great if i'm on the same kick as uh what doug was talking about um it's a good bad movie but it's a blast to watch with friends uh and it's uh west craven's deadly friend um which is a wild wild movie uh that it's basically west craven was kind of trying

to make a kind of this family friendly um caper movie where a guy that this brilliant kid makes a robot um and uh and then it like it's you know kind of got that johnny five kind of almost spielberg magic to it but then clearly towards uh the end of the kind of development of this movie they're like it's like ah this isn't really working out you're gonna have to pull out some west craven stuff so then there's this violent uh neighbor dad that ends up um killing uh his daughter um by pushing her down the stairs and And then this guy saves the girl by putting her brain into his robot. And it is a wild, wild movie. And a lady's head gets exploded by a basketball being thrown by this person.

Or not just any lady. That's mama after she's been thrown from a train. Yep. Basketball thrown in her face. And when does it, why does a basketball make a person's head explode because if you if science has shown us that if you throw a basketball fast enough uh and it had the person has to be of a certain age to have it explode their head oh that's why there's no old basketball players that makes makes sense. Yeah, exactly. Um, and, um, it, the, uh, the girl who plays the robot, uh, is, uh, Christy Swanson. Oh, right. So you can, uh,

you can sit there and hate her for her political views now. Yes. I think that's better than hard target. Okay. Well, I feel like Brandon, this is yours to win because, uh, we've, we've, so far we've got two of what we call good, bad movies. Well, I feel like Brandon, this is yours to win because we've, we've so far, we've got two of what we call good, bad movies. Do you have anything to recommend that's good? Good. Oh, absolutely. I'm going to go with Jurassic park, which I just watched for the probably at least 45th time last week. It still holds up. It's incredible.

I get to see people get eaten by dinosaurs and it it's just a it's just a fun time it really is like i remember when it came out i must have had like 10 minutes of it in my stand-up act because because it's great but it's also it's it's a you know it's a little insane like i know it I know it's not West Craven level insane, but to have a little kid get electrocuted on a fence and then his hair is comically standing up. And that's before he gets chased by velociraptors and thrown all over the place. I mean, those kids would have died in a real world scenario. But I saw the anniversary screening a few years ago and I guess this dude had never seen Jurassic Park before so the scene where Lauren's like yeah we only have two

velociraptors to deal with unless they learn how to open doors and then it cuts to the door opening and this dude was like oh hell no nigga I was like oh this guy's never seen this movie because this has been out for 20 something years it was the best movie going experience ever I used to say that,

uh, you know, cause they, they talk about how, how they learn and they figure out how to open a door. And I'm like, you know, I extrapolated it further.

Like them going, Oh no, they've learned how to dial nine for an outside line. Um, I think that's going to win, but you never know. because we got some crazy people listening to this podcast and everybody's got their own hot takes on what is good.

I'll put this to the test and we'll find out in a day or so which one of these movies is the best. It's game time. And I'd like to start with Rolling With It, presented by OCB Rolling Papers.

Back to the show. accounts back to the show this is a game where you gotta bid on how many movies you think you can name that a particular actor or actress that i name is in so we'll start with brandon i'll name an actor You tell me how many movies that that actor is in you think you can name in 60 seconds. Oh, producer Matt, by the way,

Ryan's always standing by with a 60 second clock when I say go. So if you could take a look at that and let us know if we run out when the 60 seconds is up. Will do. And so Brandon's going to say how many movies he thinks he can name and then doug can either challenge him to name that movie

name those people or he can add more you roll with it add more numbers to his bid and uh it moves like that then it goes to jonah and it could come back around to Brandon. We got three rounds. And this game also doesn't matter that much because the second game is one that really counts. Just so people don't, there's no reason to, you know, panic or get sweaty. Brandon. And also you can, you know, you can try to bluff. Sometimes I'll say, so I'll say the name of an actor in that. One of my guests will go, I don't even know who that is.

And I'm like, well, okay, then you're going to lose this round, but you can bluff it away. You know, you could just say confidently a number and then, you know, go from there. Cause also you can bid really low. You can say, I can name one movie and of course you're not going to get challenged on that um the actor or actress in this case it's an actor paul giamatti how many giamatti's do you think you can name brandon at least eight oh i love it he thinks he can do eight giamatti's in a minute or less. Doug Mallard, what do you think? Can you do more than that?

Or do you want to challenge Brandon and make Cordona sit over there and do nothing? In my head, I'm going to think I can do more, but I bet in reality, it's not going to be as many as I want. So I'm going to say name it. All right. Oh, damn. it's not going to be as many as I want, so I'm going to say name it. We'll start with you next, Jonas. You'll get to play, but this round,

Brandon has 60 seconds in eight Paul Giamatti movies. I will say the number after each one, so don't send too fast. Take a breath in between each one. Your time starts now. after each one, so don't send them too fast. Take a breath in between each one. Okay. Your time starts now.

Sideways. One. Cinderella Man. Two. Saving Private Ryan. Three. I Believe He Was In 12 Years A Slave. Four. What was that movie?

Hope Davis. American Splendor. Five. Big Fat Liar. Six. Whoa. Yeah, damn it. Oh, man, this is not good. I already said Cinderella, man, right?

Yeah. Goldfish. I remember seeing that movie. Okay. Then Straight Outta Compton. Yeah. I forgot that one. And then.

I think that's eight. Oh, sweet. Oh, thank God. I'm so glad this is a video. What's the did you think of one more though?

San Andreas. He was in that with the rock, right? Oh, I bet he was. He's probably like, you can't take that helicopter. But congratulations. You did it, Brandon. I'm impressed because that's a

strong opening bit. So you get the point. But Doug's not penalized other than Jonah gets to go first this next round and then it's going to come to you, Doug. Diamante's in two of my favorite movies, American Splendor and

Safeman. Safeman. American Splendor's awesome. Yeah, it's great. Yeah, you said Hope Davis earlier because she and Giamatti are so good in that that Giamatti was like, didn't even get nominated for that

or Sideways. That's just insane. He got nominated for Cinderella, man. I was like, really? Yeah. Yeah, the awards people definitely love him, but they don't get his. I think that American Splendor, that movie, I think everybody missed the boat on that one. I think it's so good.

It's one of my all time favorites. And Judah Freelander as Toby Radloff is an incredible, incredible performance. Yeah. Cause if you, you know, first knowing Judah makes it interesting. Yeah.

Cause he's not like that. And then like having seen the real guy, there's lots of footage of him on, you know, MTV and stuff like it seems seems like you know judah's going too big right yeah it seems too big and then you see the real guy it's like oh spot on yeah yeah if anything he tempered it down a tad yeah yeah well he's you know he is a little bit better looking all right so a little bit yeah he's got the movie star looks that toby didn't have um okay so we'll start with you jonah

on this next one uh this is an interesting one it's uh lucius malfoy himself mr jason isaacs oh uh yeah yeah like i don't know hung out with a guy at a con once real nice really yeah we were both at a miami con super con or whatever we went out to dinner a couple times uh but i don't know his career that much so i'm gonna have to say like and even like i'm gonna get if i even tried to like name all the harry potters i would get it wrong because I don't remember which ones exactly he's in. And I wouldn't remember all the names of all the, like, you know, the tags of the stuff. So I'm going to have to just go with

shit. I don't even, now I'm blanking entirely on whatever he's in. Oh man. Maybe you should say one and hope that doug won't challenge you yeah okay one jonah thinks he can think of one movie that the guy that's in harry potter movies i would just like but i know you would hold me you would hold my ass to the fire with like oh it's like it's not that it's not the deathly hollow it's the deathly hollows or something you know i don't remember all the fucking names

of them yeah that is tricky for some adult men Harry Potter movies but I get it what do you think Doug what's your bed well I know I think one movie and one TV show so I'm gonna have to tell them to name it I guess guess, because we're tied.

You don't think, you know, you can come up with two? I don't think so. I know one, but I don't want to say it. Oh, my God. OK, so you're going to challenge Jonah to do one, but I still have to talk to Brandon for a second. How many would you have said? I can at least do four, just all the Harry Potter movies alone.

Yeah, see, that's what I thought was going to happen, was that you people could kind of coast through the Harry Potter thing, but you never know who's a muggle and who's not. So, Jonah, for the point, name one Jason Isaacs movie

I'm gonna just play it safe because I know he's in it and I won't have to remember which Harry Potter he's in but I'm gonna say the death of Stalin okay congratulations thank you I don't want this win it feels wrong

he plays Dick Dastardly in scoop. That's all I can think of. Yeah. Oh, I think that was the Patriot cause he killed all Mel Gibson's kids in that. Oh, that's right. He killed everybody in that family. Yeah. And he's in, uh, of course, uh, I, you know, did the research on the Harry Potters and it turns out it turns out that he's credited as being in every single one of them. Oh, really?

Whoa. You wouldn't have to guess which ones he was in. You just would have had to get the titles right. Yeah, that's nothing I would have been able to do. I've seen them all once, and I enjoyed the ride. That's fair. That's totally fair. Uh, you know, that's why the next actor is not in any Harry Potter movies. So you move on from that.

Doug knows I get real stuck on the Harry Potter movies. So this time we'll start with Doug and then it goes to Brandon and then to Jonah. And Doug, here's your chance to tie this up. We don't want to be a tiebreaker. The films of Robert England.

Oh. It's his birthday today. Whoa, really? Danny Kruger and much, much more. He wasn't just that. In fact, I just saw what I think was his first appearance in a film just recently. I'll tell you about that once we get through with this round. But how many of...

I don't know how many Nightmare on Elm Street there are. How many of those do you think you can name, Doug? Do they have, like like subtitles or no? I think they're all in English. No, I mean not subtitles. I knew you meant when I took the opportunity.

Oh my god. I don't know how many. I'll say six if you don't count yeah I don't know how many Nightmare on Elm Street there are uh I'll just say

I'll say five films to play it safer but I might bomb that shit yeah why not say the number that you think you can do instead of saying i don't i will do this or are you tricking me are you pretending to not know his films i bet there's way more nightmare on elm street and i just don't i don't know how far how deep

that goes it goes pretty deep but you're not going to know what they're called. Right. Shit. You're seeing this unravel in real time with Doug. Yeah. I'm going to be the one that has a panic attack. Okay. Then five.

Sure. Okay. That's his confident bid. Brandon. More than five. I'm his confident bid, Brandon. More than five? I would go with six. Nice. Jonah. I'm going to go with eight.

Did that really happen? Yeah. Wow. This is exciting. Eight. Can't believe you're here. I definitely can't top that. I can name one outside of Nightmare on Elm Street, but... Why are you saying things out loud? What's that? Nothing.

Name it. Okay, Doug says you got to get eight Robert Englund movies in 60 seconds, Jonah. Okay. All right. We've got 60 seconds on the clock and your time starts now. A Nightmare on Elm Street. One.

A Nightmare on Elm Street 2, Freddy's Revenge. Two. A Nightmare on Elm Street 3, Dream Warriors. Three. A Nightmare on Elm Street Part 4, Dream Master.

Four. A Nightmare on Elm Street Part 4, Dream Master. Four. Nightmare on Elm Street 5, Dream Child. Five. Nightmare on Elm Street Six. Freddy's Dead. Six. Wes Craven's New Nightmare. Seven.

And Freddy vs. Jason. Eight. You did it. Oh, nice work. Jason. Eight. You did it. Oh, nice work. Amazing. He was also in Ford Fairlane. Yeah. And Urban Legend.

Urban Legend, yeah. Yeah, and he starts a bar fight. He's involved in a bar fight with Chris Christopherson in A Star is Born. That's right. I just saw that scene the other night. It just really made me laugh because he just

is like that character that comes in and is like, well, I'm going to say a few lines and people are going to start punching each other. Is he also, is he the wish master or is that another actor? Oh, it might be him. Yeah, that feels like him for sure. Okay, so congratulations Joda, you might be him. I think that's him. Yeah. That feels like him for sure.

Okay. So congratulations, Joda. You won that game. And we will tell you what you won right after this break. We'll be right back. We're back. Joda, Ray, you get to go first in our final game today to determine a winner and that game is called dream a little dream no it's not a game about meredith salinger films but perhaps we can do that when she's on the show soon how's that for a tease this is about movies currently available on my cable systems

on demand that have the word dream in the title. There's Dream Catcher, Dreaming Grand Avenue, Dreamland, American Dream, Olympic Dreams, Alone with Their Dreams, Winter's Dream, A Boy, A Girl, A Dream, Dreamhouse, Man of Her Dreams, and Dream Boy. All of those are currently olympic dreams alone with their dreams winter's dream a boy a girl a dream dream house man of her dreams and dream boy all of those are currently available and i know very little about most of them i will read the description of one of these films and then then I will give Jonah Ray, because he gets to go first, I'll give you three options of titles

that go with the description of the movie. You pick the right one, you win a point. You miss, Brandon gets a shot. Brandon misses two, and Doug gets the gimme point, because there's only three options. Great. First to two points wins. If you get an answer correct,

you'll hear this. If you miss, you'll hear this. That one's really quiet. Oh, that's better. All right. I'm glad I did a sound check. All right. I'm glad I did a sound check. All right. Jonah.

A teen bounty hunter is torn between helping or capturing a fugitive bank robber. Is that movie called American Dream, Dream Catcher or Dreamland? I'm going to go with Dreamland. Yay. So suspenseful. You did it. You got that one right. You got one point on the board.

Brandon. Hey. Two strangers discover the truth behind their linked destiny after appearing in each other's dreams.

Is this movie Dreamcatcher, Dreaming Grand Avenue, or Dreamhouse? I'm going to go with dream house. What are you laughing at, Doug? The noise. Two strangers discover the truth behind their linked destiny after appearing in each other's dreams. Your two options, Doug Mellard, are Dreamcatcher

or Dreaming Grand Avenue. I'll go Dreamcatcher. Dreamcatcher? So, so uh jonah is it oh here we go you got this just take the leap jonah just take the leap there's only one more option. It's still stressful. Dream catcher? Wait.

Oh, God. You didn't say the one that was left. What's that? Doug Mellard said dream catcher, and then you said dream catcher. Yeah, I know. It was a joke. I thought it didn't matter. I thought it was like, it was obvious that Bill wrong. Oh, I see that. We were joking. Yeah. I'm sorry. This used to be a comedy podcast, Doug. You know, you do something on zoom. Shit gets serious.

Do just say it out loud though. Dreaming on grand Avenue yes very good you win you did it wow that like went way quicker than I expected it to I thought that

I thought the Dreamcatcher would be an interesting element in the game because there was a Stephen King adaptation called dream catcher yeah that was uh super weird movie very weird all the time and morgan freeman that shit was wild it's wild it's yeah they shit out the monster out of their out of their asses like it's crazy so uh so i thought everyone would get caught up on just waiting to hear

a movie that sounds like that movie, but this is a dream catcher from more recently, which drives me crazy. This idea that any movie can have any name now. Which movies are protected? I guess no one would make something called The Godfather,

but it all seems up for grabs. I thought Which movies are protected? I guess no one would make something called The Godfather, but it all seems up for grabs. I thought that once a movie's made, you couldn't use that title again, but now if you look on your on-demand, it's just like there's a million titles that have happened before. I don't know

why I'm complaining so much about it. Yeah. I really want to try and make a movie that's like Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, maybe Christopher Walken, and call it Dirty Godfathers. It's like a take where it's like the hit comedies where it's Dirty Grandpa, but they're all mobsters.

What do you think? You know, I think there's potential there. But imagine the title in big, bold red letters on a mostly white uh poster yeah that looks pretty good but it's just just you know the last couple times because it's happened a couple times now uh de niro's been in two movies with grandpa in the title and walking was just in one and uh and that didn't do very well. They're not good.

I don't know why we're seeing these guys are grandpas because they're still vibrant. I don't know. Vibrant 70-year-olds. Yeah. The day that somebody told Robert De Niro he was funny was probably

not a great day. Oh yeah, after after that meet the first meet the parents it's been a wild uh right as of robert de niro fan yeah because he's like you know all these crappy comedies and he's you know he's a good actor so he's fine in them but you know you think back to like a great comedy like midnight run and how amazing he is in that and then uh but then also it just like it cheapens his dramatic roles because now how much of a threat is he when he's just so silly in these other movies that was the problem i have with the irishman because you know he's supposed to be kind

of like not the sharpest tool in the shed and so he made these blank faces sometimes where i'm like i shouldn't be laughing at this but there there's a thing that I remember seeing an interview like Weird Al talked about how like he kind of faced like he didn't really like some of the later police after police squad, like the Naked Gun movies, because he said, like someone told Leslie Nielsen that he was super funny. And the whole funny thing with Leslie Nielsen is that he was like taking everything super seriously. Yeah. And he was, you know, and he's a silly guy, like he'd go on talk shows with a fart box and sit there and, you know, pretend to not make these farting noises and stuff. And like, you know, he was just a wacky fun guy. And, you know, so after a few of those movies, he's probably like, okay, you know, everybody gets that I can do this deadpan and it's funny, but you know,

let's get really wacky with it. And you're right. They just did. It kind of ruined it, but also they didn't need to make so many of them either. That's true. And he doesn't need to be in so many movies that are also still doing that same thing, but they're not police squad movies. Yeah. It wasn't there one repossessed. Yes. Or was it just possessed? I forget, but it was a dumb exorcist parody yeah it was a

mr mcgoo movie yeah mr mcgoo mr good movie i can't get over uh the uh dennis the menace movie that john hughes produced did you guys see that walter walter mouth oh wow that movie is bonkers even as a six-year-old kid seeing that. I'm like, yeah. I mean, I don't care. I don't care how mean of an old man he is. He's not the wet bandits. He's not trying to break into your home.

And yet, Dennis the Menace makes him do the splits on the bathroom floor and crack his nuts on the ground. Yeah, that's also back when Christopher Laurie did all those weird movies with kids. He did that in Camp Nowhere. I'm like, what's going on with this career path that he's on? Camp Nowhere is a movie that I loved so much as a kid.

I thought it was so cool. I'm so afraid to go back to it. It's bonkers, man. It's just like, because Christopher Lloyd's a con man and he gets conned by kids to run a summer camp. It's bonkers, man. It's just like, because Christopher Lloyd's like a con man and he gets conned by kids to run a summer camp. It's just completely illegal and illogical, but it's

still fun, though. Yeah. Well, that's the important thing. I like that kid. The kid who plays Dennis the Menace, I liked him, Mason Gamble. I liked him in Rushmore. He's...

Oh, yeah. He's Jason Schwartzman's little friend. They have a falling out and then he keeps hitting Jason Schwartzman with his wrist rocket. What are those things? He keeps shooting BBs at him.

Slingshot? Slingshothot that's the word for it um there's this new ride at uh california adventure at disney where it's a spider-man themed thing and supposedly like you you get to like shoot webs from your wrists. Oh, that'd be fun. Yeah. I don't know how they're going to pull that off, but it does sound cool. Everyone's got to get bit by a spider, radioactive spider, before they go on the ride. I mean, it doesn't happen right away. So do you get bit by the spider and then go to the next stage

for the ride? I don't get it. It doesn't seem logical to me. Yeah. It's going to be tricky. Because also, you've got to wait two weeks and then get your second one. logical to me yeah it's uh it's gonna be tricky you know because then because also you know you gotta wait two weeks and then get your second one yeah um all right i want to play these uh last i got two more rounds of this game i want to play them anyway even though even though jonah uh walked away with it um let's doug let's i'll let you guess on this next one A mass killer terrorizes a disc jockey

and a group of friends at an underground music festival Is this movie A Boy, A Girl, A Dream, American Dream or Dreamcatcher? A Boy, A Girl, A Dream. I'll say that one. Is about a masked killer who terrorizes a disc jockey and a group of friends. What? None of it sounds like it's about that. I know. That's what's so great about some of these descriptions are like perfectly

confusing. So, but I just want to be clear that a mass killer terrorizes a disc jockey and a group of friends and an underground music festival. Yes. And you're going with a boy, a girl, a drink. I'm going to dream.

All right. Brandon, what do you think? What was the other one besides dream catcher? American dream. American dream. I'm going with. It's like, here we go. Here we go.

Jonah. One more time into the breach. You got this. You got this. Doug must be feeling bad for you. So he's giving you a leg up on this. I appreciate it. I'm going to go dream catcher, Doug.

Am I right with that? You are correct. Hang on a second. Why? Oh, that's right. I really shouldn't have put these sound effects things in the other room. I always have to go get them. It takes me forever. Great job job it's dream catcher see that

was this whole thing was set up so that uh you guys would just be like sick of hearing dream catcher and so you you would never guess it i guess i guess it sort of worked with me i kept going i know you mentioned that there's another dream catcher like you you gave us the hint a while back but i still wanted to open booty holes i'm like it's not that movie because that doesn't have a disc jockey in it well one of those guys had to have been a disc jockey just by yeah i don't uh yeah i don't i don't know why they made this new dream catcher about a music festival i don don't know why because also that Dreamcatcher movie is about those specific things, those Dreamcatchers

that you put over your bed to keep demons away or whatever. So I don't know is there an actual Dreamcatcher in this underground music festival movie? And what kind of underground music festival movie does Jonah Ray not know about? That's what I like. And what kind of underground music festival movie does Jonah Ray not know about? All right, let's do one. I got one more.

I had a tiebreaker all set to go. So let's do that one. And let's start with Doug again, because I want to embarrass you as much as possible. Thank you. Be sure to come listen to him over on wide world of Ducks where he doesn't have to know anything. Which one? This is a young girl rebels after being left with her grandmother in a small town. Doug, is that movie Alone with her dreams American dream or dream house

oh boy dream catcher that was the last movie this one you get to pick alone with her dreams American dream or dream house dream house Dream or Dream House? I'll say Dream House. I think you should like if there's a game show where wrong answers get you all the prizes,

you should go on it. Good. Your instincts are terrible. Okay. Dream House is a horror movie, right? Is it? Yeah, i believe so it's like craig yeah yeah yes and uh his wife yeah rachel weiss or vice yeah yeah it's um that's the only that's only one two of the movies in this game today there were possibilities i'm i'm familiar with that one and then isn't olympic dreams isn't

nick kroll in that oh yeah yeah i think that's a nick kroll movie i mean you know he's just acting in it but he's like it's it's a romantic comedy i think and he's the male lead here's the thing about the uh the movie dream house um it's an ironic title because it turns out it's not a good place to live. And that's what's kind of funny about that title. Yeah, well, that's why you guys guessed it earlier for one of these other things because, you know, all of these

movies sound like they could take place in a dream house that turns out to be ironically named. But this one about the young girl and her grandfather is called alone with her dreams. But all of those are available on demand on your cable system. So if you want to spend a few bucks and watch any of them,

let us know on Douglas movies on Twitter. If any of them are any good I'm guessing no if I had to guess Jonah Ray congratulations on winning today thank you so much we've got a live show

coming up this Wednesday night do you by any chance have Wednesday night free I don't I was bummed because it's something that I would have just gone to chance have Wednesday night free? I don't. I was bummed because it's something that I would have just gone to see anyway, but I'm sorry. I can't make it. Well, you know, that's all right. We had a good run. I think we were friends for a long time. Wait, no, this is

it. This is the time where you give me the ultimatum. We've had so many good experiences together, Doug. Yeah, I'm sorry.
