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
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.
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...
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.
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
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.
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,
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.
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
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.
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
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
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
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
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
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
shire.
S-H-I-R-E,
right?
Right?
This has been Tweet Relief, tweets about movies that
are funnier in print.

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
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.
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
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.
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?
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.
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,
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.
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?
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.
Go.
I,
five,
one,
two.
This is why you have to see
Douglass movies live
because
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.
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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?
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
Are you ready?
Yes.
Hold my mic.
I've got your microphone.
Whoa!
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute, you guys.
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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,
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.
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?
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
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,
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?
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?
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.
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!
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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
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.
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?
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,
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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
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
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
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
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
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.
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.
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,
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
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
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.
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!
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.
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
Martin Short. And your six names
are John Scott
Clue, Tanya
Soler, J.A. Preston,
Jorge Luis Ramos,
Emmanuel
Lagrono,
Medo Sisto.
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...
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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,
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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
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.
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.
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,
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.
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
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.
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.
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
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.
He wasn't wrong, though.
No, he was not wrong in theaters
and VOD.
But Brie was wrong.
Sorry.
In theaters.
What?
In theaters.
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
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?
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
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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
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
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
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
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
wrapping up.
I wrote his name
on it, so I think
it's good.
His name?
Bensby?
No.
Oh, does Bensby
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.
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.
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.
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
what is it let me see don't say that laugh let me look at it though yeah I
get I get't look.
Thank you guys so much.
Look for Jack Plotnick in Wrong.
Thank you, Doug.
Thanks so much for having me.
But you were right about Mask.
That was awesome.
Yeah.
Great movie.
And as always,
I don't know which one
to say first.
Yeah, I do.
Me, me.
Hmm?
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.
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.
Guys, the world is viewing prowess makes him cocky.
There's no room in his heart for you.
Because Doug loves movies.
