Starting point is 00:00:00 Doug hates candy wrappers, skinny babies, sticky seats With 50 azotop or hurdles in his feet They're still not warm, that he won't sleep Because Doug loves movies Hey everybody This microphone seems very not hot at the time And now it's better, thank you My name is Doug
Starting point is 00:00:31 I love movies This is Doug Loves Movies Coming to you from the UCB Theater in Los Angeles On Tuesday, March 26th To Oceans 13 Let's see your name tags, Los Angeles Yeah I like to see them at the beginning of the show 26th. Two Oceans 13. Let's see your name tags, Los Angeles. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:00:48 I like to see them at the beginning of the show before all of my guests are out here making a bunch of noise and being stupid. I want to give props to the signs that I like. We've got... Who's the Santa Claus? Brian's the Santa Claus? And that does not look like Tim Allen. That looks like...
Starting point is 00:01:06 What's his name? Klaus Kitsky. Very well done. I guess you know who the guests are. You must pay attention, which is pretty awesome. And what's that name over there? Porter? That's a very fancy sign, Porter.
Starting point is 00:01:22 And you're going to be the start of this vine that I'm about to make I can't believe you guys made that noise oh he's going to make a vine we're going to be in a vine I hope none of you are under suspicion for crimes because I'm making
Starting point is 00:01:40 a vine of you all right now there's Klaus Kitsky that's a bad section for I'm making a vine of you all right now. There's Klaus Kitsky. That's a bad section for... I didn't even get to you guys. I'm sorry. It's only six seconds long. Oh, Jordan got in.
Starting point is 00:01:53 That's good. As long as Jordan gets in. I'm going to write, look for Jordan. I don't know if people are enjoying my vines as much as I'm enjoying making them, but I got up this morning and just had an idea to push a Cabbage Patch doll down the stairs and then vine it and say,
Starting point is 00:02:16 not a real baby. And I was so happy with that. It's not my top moving vine. It's only 186 people have liked it. My record is 270-something, which was just a vine of me just flipping through comedy movies in my collection saying, these are ones I like. So people are weird. I'm weird.
Starting point is 00:02:44 Let's do it I'm doing a stand up at Flappers in Burbank this Thursday at 10 o'clock to practice for my upcoming album taping on April 20th in San Francisco at Cobbs Comedy Club but if you live here come to Flappers Thursday night
Starting point is 00:03:00 DC Pearson is going to be there to open for me and he'll play Leonard Moulton game with you guys at the end of the show. I'll go home. You'll just play with him in the parking lot. No, no. I'll be there and he'll play and it'll be fun.
Starting point is 00:03:16 What else? Oh, since last I spoke and you listened, I flew back from Atlanta, Georgia, where I had a great time and I was given a lot of food, which I appreciate but please no more at my live shows no more cakes no more candies no more cookies
Starting point is 00:03:31 I'm trying to lose weight or at least maintain where I'm at which is semi-fat I'm talking to you Portland Oregon because Portland Oregon especially they love their fucking baked goods and if it's got weed in it, yes. I'll take it. But if it doesn't have
Starting point is 00:03:48 weed in it, why am I eating it? It's bad. I'll be in Portland this weekend for four stand-up shows and one Doug Loves Movies taping at Helium Comedy Club. And I'm going to be in Phoenix, Arizona doing two stand-up shows on Saturday, April 13th at a place called
Starting point is 00:04:03 Stand Up Live because I will be there doing stand-up live. And, oh, if you want to bring... Food is your name tag. This is just a general note. Like, here at UCB, you can pretty much walk in with anything. But if you want to bring Food is Your Name tag at a comedy club or a rock club
Starting point is 00:04:20 or a theater where I'm playing, most of the employees have been told don't ever let in outside food under any circumstances. And they don't hold a staff meeting to discuss that Doug Benson's in town. So it's really hard for me to turn that tide around and get people
Starting point is 00:04:36 to not be yelled at for trying to bring in food. So all I'm saying is if you're going to bring a food name tag, hide it under something and whip it out when it comes time for to bring out the name tags and then if they yell at you just scream loudly dog said it was okay and disrupt the podcast and we'll we'll have some fun with that now it's time for tweet relief tweets about movies uh at mr crummins k-r-u-m-i-n-s tweeted elves may be timid, but hobbits are
Starting point is 00:05:06 shire. S-H-I-R-E, right? Right? This has been Tweet Relief, tweets about movies that are funnier in print. The best interruption number 21. 21. We've been doing it

Starting point is 00:06:17 And this might be one of the better prize bag gifts in a while. Did you guys hear the show in Atlanta that just came out today? Did some of you hear it? I hate spoilers, but for those of you who didn't hear it, this is one. This is the $20 bill that Colin Quinn wrote Angels in the
Starting point is 00:06:38 Outfield on. And if you listen to the episode, it'll make more sense. But let's get my guests out here. These are all friends of mine. I mean, I just became friends with Werner Herzog. But please welcome Jack Plotnick, Brie Larson, and Werner Herzog. Werner, Werner.
Starting point is 00:07:01 I still don't know what to say. I'm okay. What's going on? Something's happening? You didn't know what? If I had to hide this. No, don't hide your Pabst Brew Lippin. What? Don't hide your Flaps Flu Flippin'. Just drink it up. My Flip Flap Flippin'? Yeah, get
Starting point is 00:07:29 on the same page with me. I've had about 12 of those. Oh, that's where they went. Between the two options of hiding or dividing, where do you stand? That is a great question, Werner. I like to divide it.
Starting point is 00:07:50 Rather than hide it. Yes. Indeed. And thank you for coming back again, second week in a row for the great... This is my great pleasure. The great director of Fitzcarraldo. Why won't he come to his senses? I'm sorry, what?
Starting point is 00:08:09 Your story about your endless announcements about food reminded me that we used to have staff meetings whenever I would work with Klaus Kinski. And if he would ever bring food to the set, it was a problem because often the ingredients of his meals included toxic airborne spores. Oh, I thought that sounded like it had more. Toxic airborne spores.
Starting point is 00:08:41 Spores. Full stop. Well, thank you very, very much. And sometimes prepared around peanuts. You know, Harmony Corrine has this new movie. My old friend. Yeah, Spring Breakers,
Starting point is 00:08:58 but you're in Julian Donkey Kong and you are able to lay on your back on the ground and then just flip right up onto your feet. That's correct. How did you learn to do that? And could you do it for us tonight? Absolutely. Here I go. I'm lying on the ground now.
Starting point is 00:09:22 All right, all right. Make room. There's some people sitting on the floor with some, they have, see they have beers too, Bree, so don't worry about it. Is everyone ready? Okay, you ready for this? To see this miraculous occurrence?
Starting point is 00:09:32 Do you want, can you, do you want me to hand, you want to hand your microphone to me while you do it? Yes, please. Okay. Go. I, try, fight.
Starting point is 00:09:40 Go. I, five, one, two. This is why you have to see Douglass movies live because
Starting point is 00:09:53 I apologize to the homeless. This does not work on a podcast. They really feel left out right now. They're fucking mad. Find it.
Starting point is 00:10:04 Yeah, I should have find it god damn it well maybe next time if you win we'll see you next week and and you'll vine it up because let me introduce my other guests Jack Plotnick is here everybody first timer first timer Jack Plotick, who is in a motion picture that looks crazy awesome. It's crazy in a good way. And it's called Wrong.
Starting point is 00:10:32 And it's the second film. If you ever saw Rubber, it's the second film from Quentin Dupuis. Am I pronouncing that right? I never actually figured it out. Oh, okay, good. That's usually the first day on the set is finding out how to say people's names.
Starting point is 00:10:47 Yeah, I'm in character. Can't really focus on anyone but me. Your character is a man with a dog in his brain. Apparently, yes. Because that's your face, and have you thought about shaving a mustache to say wrong like it does on the poster? Is that even possible?
Starting point is 00:11:01 I did it in a lower area. Oh, it says wrong in your pubes, which is probably a better place for it. If you're down there, it's all wrong. So you brought a poster for the movie and then also a designer cool knockoff. It's by an artist named Mondo. They're like collectibles, his posters.
Starting point is 00:11:24 Yeah, so you got that, and Jack signed that for you. It's by an artist named Mondo. They're like collectibles, his posters. Yeah, so you got that, and Jack signed that for you. And the movie is opening Friday here in Los Angeles at Cinefamily and will be playing there for a week. Yeah, yeah, opening in a lot of cities, but just for a week. But it's on Video On Demand and iTunes, and if you saw Rubber, Quentin is so crazy and special and different, and it's a good movie to do probably what you would do before you watch it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:52 You mean like it's best to watch like on a full stomach? Yes. Like if I had a sandwich? And Brie Larson is here, everybody. Third time guest. Is it? Or fourth, third or fourth, third, I think. But first time on a regular three-person panel.
Starting point is 00:12:11 Yeah, I was confused. You're usually here amongst the million guests of Christmas, which gets out of hand. Have you ever heard that, Werner, that episode of that show? It's too long. I bet you Leonard Maltin has said that about at least two of your films. He said it to my face.
Starting point is 00:12:29 Your face is too long. He didn't mock my accent. He's very critical of faces and accents. He didn't mock my accent the way you did. So Bree, I'm so excited for you because this sounds like you wrote this down does it
Starting point is 00:12:49 I glanced at my notes Brie I am so excited for you to see what I want to talk to you about I definitely had to write down the name of the movie
Starting point is 00:12:56 because it's the most easily forgettable movie title I mean once you've seen it it probably makes more sense but it's called
Starting point is 00:13:04 Short Term 12. Yeah. What do you think that means? That's hard to remember. What do you think that's about? That's like boat cucumber wire. That's just like random words. Short Term 12.
Starting point is 00:13:14 But I know what it's about. And I know that you picked up... What's it called quickly? Short Term 12! It's Cab Avocado Brick. It's Cab Avocado Brick. It's about 90 minutes to hour 45. Top three actors.
Starting point is 00:13:38 No, it won the Audience Award and the Jury Award for narrative feature at South by Southwest. Yeah, so congratulations. Thanks. And you... We want a belt buckle. You star in it as you're a young lady who works in a home
Starting point is 00:13:51 for troubled youth? Yeah, foster kids. Foster kids. So not necessarily troubled, but like definitely on their own. The division is called Short Term 12.
Starting point is 00:14:00 Okay. That's, yeah, Short Term Foster Care Facility. Yeah. That'd be a great name for the movie. Short-term foster care facility. Section 42. Sub-section.
Starting point is 00:14:13 Okay, so when can people start seeing it? I don't know yet. I mean, it's in the process of being bought, you know, that whole thing. Yeah, it doesn't have a distributor yet. Oh, is that the person who bought it? Unless that person is here. Maybe Draft House Films is going to buy it. An eccentric millionaire has offered to buy your film.
Starting point is 00:14:33 I don't know. Well, thanks for being excited that I think it sold. Incredibly eccentric millionaire. I think it's going to come out. It'll come out in the latter half of the year. I'd line up and see Doug Loves Movies for free every Tuesday. Clap when a Kickstarter opportunity presents itself. So that's awesome.
Starting point is 00:14:57 And you are also about to start work on a Peter Bogdanovich film? That's amazing to me. I've always loved that dude. I even, as a teenager and a young adult, wore glasses that were like the glasses he used to wear. No ascot. I didn't go that far with it. But I had
Starting point is 00:15:15 red round glasses because Peter Bogdanovich wore them. Did you worship Orson Wells? No. You should have. Well, that's true, Werner. He isn't amazing. I've always enjoyed Citizen Kane, but I'm sad to say there are some Orson Welles films I haven't seen.
Starting point is 00:15:33 Such as? That one where he was a pirate. Give it to Miss. No, but I've seen... What's the one with Charlton Heston? What's that called? Touch of Evil. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:45 I like the way you say it. I enjoy saying it. I flashed back to Jack Reacher when you said that. Ah, Jack Reacher, soon to be out on Blu-ray. Save it for the plugs, motherfucker. You brought some, Bree, for your prize, you brought some colorful pens.
Starting point is 00:16:03 Oh, those are mine. That you're going to keep? Yeah. But you're going to draw something? Yeah, yeah. On this. For the winner. What kind of stuff do you draw? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:16:13 I mean... Who here is the fan of colored lines? I don't know. That? Like geometric stuff? Oh, okay. And then doodly things? So are you going to start drawing that now?
Starting point is 00:16:24 Well, yeah. I was doodly things. So are you going to start drawing that now? Well, yeah. I was just trying to enjoy the conversation. If you know who you're playing for, then maybe you'll draw something. Yeah, maybe I'll try and draw a portrait or something. You'll be inspired? You know, to remember the occasion. I think if you could draw what you saw when
Starting point is 00:16:39 Werner Herzog was flopping around on the ground, that would be great. For those of us who didn't get a chance to see. Perhaps you should do it again. Maybe you should get in that position. I am ready to do it any time. Alright, here we go. Let's do it one more time.
Starting point is 00:16:57 Please hold my mic. Yeah, hold your microphone. Is your suit going to get dirty? I need to be able to take a mental picture as well so maybe if you could do it slower this time. I don't think it's the kind of thing you can slow down. Can you? You must.
Starting point is 00:17:11 I can and I will. Real quickly, are you related to comedian Seth Herzog? Yes. Okay. All right, go ahead. He's my godson. Here we go. Once again, on your feet.
Starting point is 00:17:28 Do you want to count it down like you did last time? Yes, I will. I'm going to give you the microphone, though. Alright, I will, but this time I'm going to mix it up a little bit. And I won't do it on three. I'll do it at a secret number to be determined. In the act. Alright, here we go.
Starting point is 00:17:45 Are you ready? Yes. Hold my mic. I've got your microphone. Whoa! Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Wait a minute, you guys.
Starting point is 00:17:54 Wait a minute, you guys. That was a false start. That was pretty entertaining. You were halfway up there. The tricky part is slowing it down. I have to think Bullet time I'm sorry, I got excited
Starting point is 00:18:09 I'm almost on the ground Almost on the ground And I have once again rejoined the earth's surface. I don't know why the Wachowskis bothered to invent bullet time. You could have just been in that scene bending backwards and dodging the bullets. They didn't realize
Starting point is 00:18:35 I could do it. I hid my light under a bushel until I worked with Harmony. It wasn't even supposed to be in the film. It was just something I was doing to amuse people at craft service. Yeah, it didn't look very produced. It just sort of happened.
Starting point is 00:18:56 So, Jack, do you get to go to the movies a lot? I know that you're often butting your head into a moving vehicle to get people to eat Doritos. Right? That's you, right? I do do that in my spare time, but what I get paid to do is I'm the spokesman for Chex Mix right now. Oh, Chex Mix. I'm sorry. And I'm the Chex Rabbit.
Starting point is 00:19:17 I was close. You eat what you need to. And I'm also the Chex Rabbit right now. I'm a French waiter who pulls his face off, and I'm the Chex Rabbit. Chex are for kids. This is terrifying. A human being turns into a rabbit. I can do it.
Starting point is 00:19:31 It's how I got the job. You want to see? Certainly. Okay. Counting down. Three, two, one. I beg of you to replace your humanoid mask. Some people here were scared by that.
Starting point is 00:19:51 I think the Trix rabbit is cute. I agree. He's sexy. He's constantly tricking people. Yeah, he really is. Just let it go. No, I am mistaken. He is the one who is being tricked.
Starting point is 00:20:04 He is trying to get the cereal. But he is, but he, the lesson he learns... He will not fall for tricks while trying to get his tricks. No, the lesson he learns at the end of every advertisement is that the cereal is not for him. It is for human children.
Starting point is 00:20:20 Let this be a lesson to all animals. Human food is for humans May we all in this room tonight Pledge to never again forget the lesson of tricks Listen up animals But I'm sorry, Chex Mix That's so funny I thought it was Doritos.
Starting point is 00:20:45 Specifically the party mix? They have a wide range of flavors. Fifteen in all. If not for a party, how do you employ this standard mix? Well, that's a nice thing. When you open up Chex Mix, it's a party. So,
Starting point is 00:21:02 it's kind of... You're saying party is one of the ingredients. Yes, indeed. Party is what makes it tangy, yes. I got one. It wasn't, you know, someone wrong at the factory. Not much party in it. Mostly those ones I don't like.
Starting point is 00:21:19 Oh, the pretzel bits. I love that you had a guess. I instantly got worried that you were going to talk about one that was my favorite. Do you have a favorite in Chex Mix? Yeah. Which is it? I think we all do. The Chex?
Starting point is 00:21:34 The little brown breads. Oh. Little brown breads. I love you people. I love you people. People orgasmed. Do you like the little brown breads, Warner? At the moment, I was
Starting point is 00:21:49 trying to remember what the little brown breads were. A wave of ecstasy was traveling over the audience. I'm still not quite clear in my mind what they are. So, Brie,
Starting point is 00:22:06 in this Peter Bogdanovich movie, you play... Are you a prostitute in it? And Owen Wilson develops a fondness for you and tries to get you a job acting in a Broadway show? Yeah. And Jennifer Aniston is his wife?
Starting point is 00:22:27 No. Okay, because she's in it too, and I was like, what about Marley? But they've been through enough with that dog. They don't need you and your hooker thing coming in. But anyway, that's awesome that you're doing that. It takes place in New York, obviously, so you're going to go there to shoot it?
Starting point is 00:22:46 Yeah. All right, so maybe I'll do one of these out in New York while you're there, and we'll meet up again. Bree, may I ask, does New York become one of the characters in the film? Well, yes, it does. Yeah, you know it well. I had a feeling.
Starting point is 00:23:00 You know it well. Broadway is a character in the film. The Great White Way. It seems that New York cannot but help become a character in a movie in which it is set Especially when they film it in Toronto Which happens quite a bit We gotta play some games Let the games begin!
Starting point is 00:23:32 And we also need to choose some name tags, you guys. So we got some nice ones out there. There's a young man just holding up a beer. It's as easy as that. He scribbled his name on the label. So yeah, Bri, just go and pick whoever you want to jack to. Just go take it from them. Why am I the only one who has done this? Because they're just so stupefied by the amazing display
Starting point is 00:23:53 that occurs when this happens. I vined it, so everyone can check it out on my Twitter if they want. She's really thinking it over. And it worked. You got Santa Claus caught Werner's eye.
Starting point is 00:24:11 This is a good one. He's going to be playing for Brian. My dear dead friend, Klaus Kinski, dressed up as Tim Allen, Santa Claus character. And he is in a fun headlock as our contestant Brian. Good job, Brian.
Starting point is 00:24:29 And he wrote a shithead on the back, so we're all good to go. What do you got there, Brie? What did you pick out? A book? Oh yes, yes. I picked out The Great Bensby. Or Benby? Did you want the S to be included? He likes the S. So it will be Bensby. You know, you might want want the S to be included? He likes the S.
Starting point is 00:24:45 So it will be Bensby. You know, you might want to redo it because the S is a little cut off. Got the colored pens. That would be my gift to you. You can fix it for him. The Great Bensby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. And his name is Ben.
Starting point is 00:25:02 Bensby with an S. Okay. Oh, that's what we'll call him from now on. That's fun. Yeah. Okay, you're playing for Bensby, and who are you playing for? It is fun.
Starting point is 00:25:10 Right? You're right. I was skeptical until you said it. Jack, who are you playing for? Well, this caught my eye, because it was kind of shiny and glittery. It's big, yeah. And it's big.
Starting point is 00:25:25 Yeah, I like it. I kind of like big. And it's porter. It says porter. But it kind of tricked me because I thought that it was glittery and actually it's just friggin' tape or something. But it's... It's just like when you see the Price is Right set up close. Yeah, it's a bummer.
Starting point is 00:25:40 It's not as beautiful as it is on television. Nothing causes more despair than seeing that giant wheel in person. And Jack, I think he probably wrote a shithead on the back, so don't read that out loud. That's for at the end of the show. If you lose, that'll be his consolation prize is that I will name whoever he says
Starting point is 00:25:59 on the back a shithead. Is there a shithead on the back of the Bensby book? No. Okay, so you'll have to come over if Brie loses. But let's worry about it later, because I think you have a shot at winning tonight. Because Jack's never played, and Werner, I think he got lucky
Starting point is 00:26:14 last week. We shall see. I like that I was able to say that right in front of you. I've grown that comfortable. It is your show. And you're so polite. For good or ill, you are the host. For good or ill. All right, so let's play. There's no other business to take care of
Starting point is 00:26:37 other than the business. Any more food announcements? Please, stop bringing me food. What if people bring celery? Or kale? If they brought me kale chips, I would eat the hell out of those. Will you make an exception for superfoods? Yes.
Starting point is 00:26:55 If they bring me superfoods. Blueberries. They already bring Graham Elwood gluten-free stuff all the time. Yeah, one guy over there. Oh, the energy it gives you to be gluten-free. How do we survive all these years with all the fucking gluten running through our systems?
Starting point is 00:27:13 I also enjoy gluten-free foods because they have been filtered through science. We're going to let you go first, Werner, and pick a category, and then we'll go to Bree, and then we'll go to Jack, because it's his first time,
Starting point is 00:27:30 and he's busy getting people to try Chex Mix on a roaring highway. Like, you just pop your head in while they're driving down the road. Yeah, they just have the cameras there. I'm doing that every day, but that time they filmed it. Yeah. And you were also in Down, but that time they filmed it.
Starting point is 00:27:47 And you were also in Down With Love. Oh my god, a thousand years ago. Yeah, but I like that movie. Oh yeah, you're the one. It's a beautiful movie. It was a good recreation of the Cary Grant, Tony Randall kind of movies from way before and people just didn't get it.
Starting point is 00:28:02 You mean Rock Hudson? Rock Hudson? Who'd I say? Cary Grant. Oh yeah, Rock Hudson. But Cary Grant was quite a charmer. He was in some romantic movies. Indeed. With some fast talking, right?
Starting point is 00:28:15 Yes, this is not to say that Cary Grant never appeared in a fun film. I just like hearing you say fun. Because you probably don't have any, do you? I don't enjoy saying it. I enjoy myself watching sped up films of things decaying. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Don't slam the table.
Starting point is 00:28:43 Bree's trying to draw. Have you seen that fox? I have not seen it. He just decays into nothing. I could watch it over and over. I don't want to see that. That sounds like something Patton Oswalt would twink about.
Starting point is 00:29:00 Twink, you guys. Are you on twink yet? It's a whole new thing. All right, Werner, you get to choose between the following three categories. Would you like Take Control of Your City? Which is films
Starting point is 00:29:15 that have a mayoral race in them. Or Martin Short is celebrating a birthday today. The great Martin Short. so the films of Martin Short you're clapping like he's dead I think they were clapping like they weren't sure if he was dead
Starting point is 00:29:33 the stunned parts of in memorandum during the Oscars where they don't give a big round of applause because they're not sure that that person's really dead. And Alan Arkin is celebrating a birthday today as well. We know he's
Starting point is 00:29:54 alive! He just got nominated for an award for saying Argo, fuck yourself a couple of times. Argo, fuck yourself! Argo! Werner, could you do a good Alan Arkin impression did Alan Arkin just walk onto the stage you try it though you try an Alan Arkin impression
Starting point is 00:30:12 I want everyone on the panel to do an Alan Arkin impression what is the thing that he says Jack do you know one anything Alan Arkin says last Alan Arkin movie I saw was The In-Laws. Yeah, so... I almost said Serpentine. I believe Peter Fox
Starting point is 00:30:31 says that to Alan Arkin. Can we do impressions of things that are said to Alan Arkin? Yes. Yes. That really opens it up. Do a Peter Falk impression. Say Serpentine Shell to Alan Arkin.
Starting point is 00:30:51 Serpentine Shell. Was that close? Just stick with jumping off of the floor from a laying position. So the films of Alan Arkin is the third option. I would like to choose the films of Martin Short and Happy Birthday, Martin Short. I think you sort of slided Alan Arkin in a way. Okay.
Starting point is 00:31:14 It was the no-win situation. You could have slided mayoral races. 1992 is the year for this movie that features Mr. Martin Short, and Leonard Maltin calls it a bomb. Yeah. Yeah, he comes after it. He says about this movie that Paul Anka plays a boat salesman in this film. And he even includes the parenthetical,
Starting point is 00:31:48 you tell us why. Way to go, Leonard. Got a big laugh, Leonard. And he also calls it a dreadful time waster. And he lists about I'd say about ten names. How many names do you think you get
Starting point is 00:32:12 in The Great Werner Herzog? I feel strongly as if I could guess this film in eight names. So Brie, you can guess lower amount of names or you can tell
Starting point is 00:32:29 Werner to name it. Seven. Seven. Now we go to Jack. He's playing for Porter. Who would I be asking to name it? You could either ask Brie to name it with seven out of ten names.
Starting point is 00:32:43 That's the seven names reading from the bottom up, so she's going to miss the top three actors listed. Or you could bid six names and get six names if Werner challenges you to name it. Six names. And I do cherish the idea that at some point I'm going to yell at you the title of your own film. Tonight. When I say, wrong!
Starting point is 00:33:10 That's fun. Yeah, I can't say short term 12 if you lose. Do it. Or Fitzgeraldo! So funny. Okay. So you say six, Jack? Okay, Jack says six. Jack Plotnik named that movie.
Starting point is 00:33:31 A margin short level of applause for my opening gambit. All right, Jack, so I'm going to tell you the six names. The clues, again, are that Paul Anka, you tell us why, plays a boat salesman, and that it's a dreadful time waster. And Leonard calls it a bomb. It's from 1992. Features
Starting point is 00:33:51 Martin Short. And your six names are John Scott Clue, Tanya Soler, J.A. Preston, Jorge Luis Ramos, Emmanuel Lagrono, Medo Sisto.
Starting point is 00:34:07 Are these names? Yes. These are names of actors that appeared in a film with Martin Short that came out in 1992 that Leonard called a bomb. Guess any movie that you think he might not have enjoyed from Martin Short. I'm going to say that...
Starting point is 00:34:29 Wouldn't he end something called... Maybe. Those three... Cabal... No, not Donald Duck. Three Amigos. Three Amigos is a movie Martin Short is in, but you are wrong.
Starting point is 00:34:49 A new film by Quentin Dupuy. Trying to get in some plugs for you, buddy. Because Werner's really sucking all the oxygen out of this episode. And you... And you win, Werner, because the answer is Captain Ron. Captain Ron with Kurt Russell and Mary Kay Place. I don't think that movie's a bomb.
Starting point is 00:35:16 What did you think of it, Werner? I do not feel that it is a bomb, but I do feel a better title would have been The Dreadful Time Wasters. feel that it is a bomb, but I do feel a better title would have been The Dreadful Time Wasters. Excellent. How's your drawing coming along, Brie?
Starting point is 00:35:32 Oh, good, I think. I mean, getting there. I don't know what I'm getting at, but getting to it. It looks like the beginnings of a Sgt. Pepper Pope. It really does. It does. Okay, cool.
Starting point is 00:35:48 That's why you gotta be here, guys. You gotta be at Doug Benson's show live. It's true, it's true. Okay, so now you get to start, Bree, for this next round, and then we will go to Werner, and then to Jack. So get ready over there, Jack.
Starting point is 00:36:05 And your three category options are, as suggested by the Josh Cox, C-O-C-K-S, on Twitter, I See Dead People, which is movies in which someone... You don't have to look at me so seriously. Like, you're not dead, or are you? I'm just hosting.
Starting point is 00:36:27 I've seen dead people. I didn't know how serious I was looking at you. Doc, perhaps you should market a T-shirt with a little cartoon of yourself as a sort of cherub, naughtily holding a finger to your lip, saying, I'm just hosting. I think a friend of mine still
Starting point is 00:36:48 owns, there was a child's candy for a while that was a Nightmare on Elm Street themed candy. And it's a picture of Freddy Krueger and he's got one of his knife blades up to his mouth and it says, on candy for children, it says shh, I'm killing someone.
Starting point is 00:37:12 So the category, maybe I was giving you such a serious look because there's a twist here. The category is I see dead people and it's movies where someone has frozen to death. I see dead people. That's good. Yeah, fun. Good work, good work, Josh Cox. And then in honor of your upcoming gig,
Starting point is 00:37:28 the films of Peter Bogdanovich or, total opposite of that, movies that are in theaters now. He doesn't have a movie in theaters now. It's true. Not yet. He's about to. This eccentric millionaire is about to make it happen.
Starting point is 00:37:48 Frozen people, Peter Bogdanovich. Or movies that are playing right now. I don't know how familiar you are with what's out right now. Sometimes you get busy with your drawing. I did pass by the Lemley. Yeah, yeah. I passed by the Lemley earlier. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:02 I'm sure this is playing at the Lemley. You're a shoo-in. Yeah, I just happened to pass by. I mean, I feel like I want to do the Bogdanovich one, but then is everyone going to be real offended if I... No? Everyone's like, go for it. Okay, great.
Starting point is 00:38:19 Let's do... I don't want to lose you or your gig. Is that what you're saying? I don't think that's going to be. Okay. Or maybe. I'm sorry. Would you like she will be digitized out
Starting point is 00:38:25 of the screen. Let's try. I'm interested. Alright. This Peter Bogdanovich movie is from 1985. Leonard gives it three and a half stars. He calls it irresistible. He also says the director's cut runs 127 minutes thanks len that's real helpful oh i'll give you
Starting point is 00:38:50 one more clue he also calls it a winner a three and a half star winner in this review mr malton does not hold the mirror back up to the audience demanding that we explain something to him. Yeah, it doesn't say, A winner, you tell us why. I also like that he says us. He's very transparent about that this review might have been written by somebody else. And he lists 11 names. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:23 How many names do you think you know? 11. 11? Yeah. That is a confident bid. Werner. I can name that movie in nine names. There's only three of us laughing
Starting point is 00:39:46 at that. Jack? I can name it an eight. I like the way you guys are playing. It's back to you, Bree. I know, normally you're in the 12 guests of Christmas and it's an hour later. I know, it takes so long.
Starting point is 00:40:02 I'm like asleep. I can't believe it. Seven. Name that to Mufi. You got it. People are sad on your behalf. There's some people over there. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:40:19 A sub-launching short reaction. It's such a sad way to see her go. So you get seven names? Is that what you decided on? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. I'm sorry the clues are so shitty, but it's irresistible,
Starting point is 00:40:35 and the director's cut runs 127 minutes. To be fair, the regular cut runs 120. Also, it is a real winner. Yes. No, just a winner. I beg your pardon. And the pardon of Mr. Moulton and his consortium of movie reviewers. The seven names are Andrew Robinson, Barry Tubb, Marsha Warfield, Lawrence Monason, Harry Carey Jr.
Starting point is 00:41:09 Yeah, Harry Carey Jr. And Laura Dern? Laura Dern. Laura Dern. So can you think of a Peter Bogdanovich movie that Laura Dern might have been? The one that's popping up in my head now, I don't know. What's Up, Doc? Did you provide the year? Did I? Yeah. Yeah, yeah. 85, right? Yeah, I said that. The only thing that I, I don't know the year. Yeah, sure. What's
Starting point is 00:41:36 up, Doc? That was many years, not many, but 70s. Yeah, yeah. And this one also had Richard Dysart, Estelle Getty, Eric Stoltz, Sam Elliott. Jack, do you think you know it? Yes. What's it called? I can quote from it. Really? Say a quote from it, and then the name, and I won't say wrong. Okay.
Starting point is 00:42:03 Nothing makes me happier than the wind on my back and the sun on my face, and nothing makes me happier than the wind on my back and the sun on my face and nothing makes me sadder than the wind on my back and the sun shining on my face. Mask.
Starting point is 00:42:14 Yes. The Mask. Oh, no, Mask. You're right, Mask. That's a very different movie. No, you're right, Mask. Yeah, The Mask. That would be weird
Starting point is 00:42:22 if Jim Carrey said that. And I was obsessed with that movie. Nothing makes me happier! He explains to Laura Dern how he sees by heating rocks and putting them in her hand. He boils rocks and throws them in her hands. He's like, that's the color red. And she's like, ow! It's red. And she's like, ow. It's crazy.
Starting point is 00:42:47 He wasn't wrong, though. No, he was not wrong in theaters and VOD. But Brie was wrong. Sorry. In theaters. What? In theaters.
Starting point is 00:43:04 What does that mean? She's going along with the... You don't get it? The precedent you've established of plugging the film wrong whenever the word wrong is uttered. I love having you here, Werner, because most of my guests
Starting point is 00:43:22 can't tell me what the fuck is going on during the show, but you are on top of it and focused and also our winner. You did it. Here's your sash and your tiara. Please, please, please. Girls, girls, please. I regret to inform you that I will be on location next week and will be unable to defend my title. Oh, no. What are we going to do?
Starting point is 00:43:55 What shall we do in this instance? A runoff? I know what I'll do. Next week I'll go to New York and do a show there and I won't be here. So that solves that problem. But then the week after that, you still
Starting point is 00:44:06 can't be here, right? Because you're shooting Fitzcarraldo 2. That's right. Taking it to the limit. I wanted to call it Fitzcarraldos. So yeah, so maybe in three weeks? That could work. I believe I'm back in late April.
Starting point is 00:44:28 Okay. I feel terrible about all of this. So maybe, why do you feel bad? Just because you can't come back and be a reigning ongoing champion? Well, I feel as if there are people who would have liked to have come back next week, and I've robbed them of their dream.
Starting point is 00:44:50 I think Jack and Brie are kind of busy. She's got to finish this drawing. May I check with them? Yes, please. Brie, Jack. Hey Brian, come get your prizes. Was it your dream to come back here next week?
Starting point is 00:45:05 You don't have to get me down low like we're filming this or something. Hey, Brian, come get your prizes. Was it your dream to come back here next week? There you go. You don't have to get me down low like we're filming this or something. I'll be out of town as well. Brie will be out of town, Jack. There you go, boss. Congratulations. I'll be eating Chex Mix. Hey, there's a party somewhere.
Starting point is 00:45:21 Is that an expression? That's their slogan. Hey, there's a party somewhere. Chex Mix. Have some in your pockets. Actually not a bad slogan. No. Anywhere you show up, you got a pocket full of Chex Mix.
Starting point is 00:45:38 People are, that's a party. Just in your pocket, loose. Yeah, that jacket would be perfect for it. Just fill your pockets with check mix. And then they have to reach in and get it. That's fun. It's a different kind of party, I fear. It is. And you always like to talk about
Starting point is 00:45:57 you like the comedy scene and you have favorites. And you love to tell people about where someone that you enjoy might be performing. Doug, I'm glad you said such things. If you live in the United Kingdom, a very funny comedian by the name of Paul F. Tompkins
Starting point is 00:46:16 will be making his United Kingdom debut at the Soho Theatre in London April 2nd through the 13th. That's like a two-week run. A two-week run. The first week is almost sold out, and the
Starting point is 00:46:32 second week is on its way to being similarly almost sold out. I love how dedicated you are to helping comics and getting people to come out and see them, and Paul is a great one. He's been on the show a bunch of times. I wish him luck in his new life over
Starting point is 00:46:48 there. So, um... Oh, we're gonna miss him. Brie Larson, finishing your drawing for Brian. Oh, yeah, yeah. I mean, I'm just getting started. Are we done? Yeah, the show's
Starting point is 00:47:06 wrapping up. I wrote his name on it, so I think it's good. His name? Bensby? No. Oh, does Bensby
Starting point is 00:47:12 get this? Yeah. Why are you writing Brian on it? Because I saw his. He won. No, this is this guy. I thought he won.
Starting point is 00:47:20 I don't understand who wins this game. You're right. You're right. Brian's going to get it. Thank you. That's how fast you are, though, that you drew in game. You're right. Brian's going to get it. Thank you. That's how fast you are, though, that you drew in Brian. You're wrong in theaters.
Starting point is 00:47:31 Brian just wrote that, I mean, just one, and you've already written his name on there, and artistically, too. So, yeah, so, Brian, she's going to finish that up for you and then give it to you. But we need a shithead from this fellow. No, that's your book. Sorry, that book. He didn a shithead from this fellow. No, that's your book. Sorry. He didn't shithead me.
Starting point is 00:47:48 Yeah, he didn't write a shithead on the back. So we need a shithead. So come on over here Bensby and just write something down there and Oh, you're going to write it in the book. Okay. Fair enough. Blasphemy. And then Jack's got a shithead on the back of his oh that's a good one

Starting point is 00:48:47 Say me. What about you? I thought that we were going down the line. Oh, do you want to plug something? Oh, no, I'm done. I thought you were saying goodbye to all of us. Yeah, well, kind of, yeah. He was about to read the paradeade of Shitheads.
Starting point is 00:49:05 Oh, go for it. Go, shithead away. Okay, the Grand Marshal of the Parade is... Dying without my permission is a shithead. He actually wrote in the voice of Bane, so good job, Porter. And also, as always, gluten is a shithead. Now it's time for Doug to watch another talkie.
