Hey everybody. Hi Doug. My name... You don't have to say anything out loud ever. That smells like someone who also might yell out answers later. I got to warn him right now. There's no reason to ever yell out. Unless...

Actually, I take that back. If I ask, hey, did you guys... If I ask the audience, then please. Jump right in. My name is Doug. I love movies. This is Doug Loves Movies. Coming to you from the UCB Theater in Los Angeles on Tuesday, September 18th, 2 Oceans 12.

That's right. Woo! Since last I spoke and you listened, I saw Ruby Sparks which is a movie, not a person but it's a movie about a person and her name is Ruby Sparks and it was not as fun

as I thought it would be going in but I thought it was worth seeing nonetheless it was a good experience but not as much fun as I hoped and I saw The Master, which I could pretty much give that the same exact review. That it's not... I didn't enjoy it, but I appreciated it.

Do you know that feeling? Yeah, that's when you talk. That's when you jump in. When I need you. But thank you for coming. And from the corrections department, I forgot to give a shout-out in when I need you. But thank you for coming. From the corrections department, I forgot to give a shout out to the company that made the vinyl Douglas Movies doll that I

gave out at the Kansas City Improv Show. It's Iamartworks.com. So go there and see whatever it is they're doing there. I have no idea. I want those of you who have been waiting for the Tournament of Championship finals or the Garland-Miller-Holmes rematch or the return of Go-Go Lithgow to know that I am tirelessly working

to make all of those things happen and everyone involved has promised to allow it to happen when their schedules permit. And tonight we have another schedules permitting situation because these are three very busy guests that brought things like an extra, extra large T-shirt that says Wasp, the Wasp Woman on it from an old-timey movie about a wasp with a woman's face on it. We've also got a Douglas Movies shirt. Got one of those in there

again, yeah. And we've got my double CD Smug Life. And then we have a motion picture called Captain America. And a book written

by Mr. Leonard Maltin. Please welcome Leonard Maltin, Chris Evans, and Adam Scott. Here they are. Oh, we should have told you about the door. The door is bad news. Hello.

Shit, I forgot my gifts. Oh, you weren't able to... I just got them at Amoeba and brought them with me and then forgot them in the car. What are they? VHS copies of... of Cops and Robbersons and The Last Boy Scout.

Oh, okay, well. The Last Boy Scout is awesome. Since you threw Last Boy Scout in there, you're going to have to go get those afterwards and work it out with whoever the winner is. Just put real effort into those choices. I admire that. Those are great choices.

And that first voice was Adam Scott, and the second voice was Leonard Moulton. And Captain America is the politest member of the panel. Hello, hello, hello. And so we'll start with Chris Evans. Chris Evans met you, asked you to do the podcast. You immediately said yes. It was very easy.

Yeah, well, I think I was pretty drunk at the time. And I got really competitive. And I was like, I'll destroy this game. And then I listened to some of the podcasts. And I was like, I might suck at this game. But you stayed committed to appearing. But that was probably, what, six or seven years ago when we ran into each other.

I was like, next Tuesday. And then I was like, oh, I can't do it. Next Tuesday. And it's been about a year. You were shooting major motion pictures in all points unknown. And then also, on your time off, you like to go back home. You're an East Coast guy. Yeah, I've been in Boston.

I literally just got back yesterday. East Coast. No, I was tracking it to the day when I knew you were going to be back. I said, can you do it on this day? Yeah, without fail. I'll fall out of complete touch with you on like a Monday. You'll be like, what are you doing tomorrow?

Yeah, you can't plan too far ahead with these characters, Leonard. Leonard Moulton picks a date. It's going to happen. He doesn't leave his shit in the car. That's how dull I am. picks a date, it's going to happen. He doesn't leave his shit in the car. That's how dull I am. Although I was told, I was warned not to listen to a recent episode.

I usually hear your shows. I download your podcast. But I was warned of a recent episode that I should not listen to. I forget which one it was. Maybe Jordan knows. What's the one where we got really filthy about Leonard Maltin? Yeah.

Like NC-17 discussion of Leonard Maltin and his sexual antics. Yeah. Now you're going to probably check it out. No. You've convinced me. You've closed the deal. Okay. Well, nobody seems to remember it, so it must not be that bad.

Well, I hope not. Did you like Ruby Sparks? Always offensive. I did like it. Yeah. I thought it was going to be more fun, though. They kind of pitched it like it was going to be a little bit more whimsical

and a little less, you know, screaming and crying. You know, when you make up a woman, when you write a woman character and then she comes to life, there's no screaming and crying. Except that the character was written by the woman. Right. And it's about male fantasizing of women. It's not a male point of view. Zoe Kazan wrote this screenplay for herself and her real-life boyfriend,

Paul Dano. It's very interesting knowing that when you digest the film. Is Adam Scott in that one? No. He's in most things now. Most things have Adam Scott in it. Hair up, hair down, he'll do it all.

Or hair on the inside of my body. I'll do those, too. Wait! I don't know what that means. I don't know either. Leonard, did you enjoy Ruby Sparks? I did. You liked it?

I haven't seen it. I really want to see it. Yeah, it's good. It's good. It's no The Master, which you could say about every other film ever made. Because that movie is unique. I saw all of The Master except the last 40 minutes because I had to leave.

Because you were watching The Master? Because I was going to be late for the next showing of The Master. When you like a part of a movie, you just sort of cling to that. I got to see that beginning again. At what point did you leave, Adam? I left, spoiler alert, right when... No, don't do that. No, it was nothing.

It was right when she said, we're going to go to this place. That's my least favorite thing about the movie. The dialogue's terrible. We're going to go to this place after that one thing that happened. She says, okay, I don't think I'll be spoiling anything. Did a lot of people see it already? Nobody's seen it yet. Oh, well.

Except for those people. But I mean, it's only playing in New York and L.A. at this point. Well, those are the only two places that matter. Okay. Then that's fair. And Boston. Right when she said, we're going to leave this house and we're going to this place

and this book is going to come out. Okay. Yeah, I got it. So there's like another 40 minutes, right? Yeah. So it was a drag. You left because there was an emergency or something? No, I just had,

I was going to be late for work so I had to leave. But so you were that amped about seeing it that you thought, I'll just take my chances and watch some of it? No.

I went. They paged you? No, I bought a ticket but if you're 10 minutes late at the fucking arc light, they don't let you into the movie. Sure. So I had to get a ticket for the next showing. And this is exciting stuff.

This is like a movie in itself. And then go see the next showing, which was going to make me... I wasn't going to be able to see all of it, but I was there, so I wanted to I wanted you know what I'll write it down yeah I have a prediction about the master I have a prediction that this is gonna be this year's movie every fall season when the the heavy-duty stuff comes out and the Oscar type films come out there's at least one usually one in

particular that critics do handsprings over particular, that critics do handsprings over, or some critics do handsprings over, and builds a reputation, but real people don't like it. And they feel intimidated because they've been sort of bullied into believing they ought to like it. And what trickles down to me is people will stop me sometimes in a lobby of a theater or a hotel or an airport, and they'll look at me, they'll give me kind of a fisheye look and say, did you like The Master? Daring me to say yes.

And if I say yes, then they're really ticked off. And if I don't, and I say, no, I didn't swallow that Kool-Aid. Oh, okay, good, alright, fine. It's a challenging movie, to be sure, but the reason I'm glad I saw it is because it will be fun to talk about for a long time to come, because there's a lot of peculiar things in that movie that I'm curious about. I think there's a lot of great things in that movie. Yeah, and Philip Seymour Hoffman and Joaquin Phoenix are both...

Yeah. Like, you imagine if other actors had played those roles, then the movie would have been a real yawn. But they are so mesmerizing... They're fantastic. ...that they save what is kind of a trudge. Is that the right word for it?

Yeah. But I'm excited to see... I thought it was really good. I mean, I didn I'm excited to see it. I thought it was really good. I mean, I didn't see all of it, but I thought it was... You don't seem too upset about missing out on the last 40 minutes. That's because I'm going to go see it. I loved what I saw. So you're really curious what's going to happen to those characters?

Yeah. Fair enough. Chris, you haven't seen it. So you're off the hook. What do you think, man? I haven't seen it. Years ago, New York Magazine used to do these word game competitions every week. And one of my all-time favorites

was to invent a TV show concept and the TV Guide logline for the show. And one of the finalists was a show called I Heard That Was Good. And the log line was, celebrities discuss books they haven't read and movies they haven't seen. That's a million dollar idea. That's a great, great idea.

Well, that's essentially what happens on this show every week. Everyone's either too busy with their careers or their families or both. Adam's juggling both and doing quite a bit of stuff. But I wanted to mention, I don't know if it's in this new 2013 Leonard Maltin movie guide, but if you want to go old school instead of having the app on the phone like I do, if you want to go old school instead of having the app on the phone like I do, you are a fan of Adam and his work in Friends with Kids. Oh, yeah. I like Friends with Kids very much.

An underappreciated movie in my book. Thank you. Very good movie. And also of the Ruby Sparks variety of marketing it, they had to sell it as a comedy, but when you watch it, it's not totally a comedy. Not funny at all. First of all, use your microphone. Really?

It's so small. It's a podcast. I know Johnny... I know your Fantastic Four persona would eschew microphones, and of course Captain America would not even know what a microphone is. I know your Fantastic Four persona is due microphones and of course Captain America would not even know what a microphone is.

I'm from another time, but I catch on quickly. You grasp a lot of shit real fast. All the superheroes do, there's just a lot of very intuitive, like, well, if if we do this that's gonna work Yeah the learning curve is quick What's going on get it closer to me Here you go we'll try to give you a little more

Alright Holy shit he just figured it out Move your foot That's called problem solving Talk about superhero My god Is the expression what's the play, is that

from the time Captain America came from? Yeah, he was like, what's our play? What's our play going to be? Do I say that in the movie? Yeah, yeah. Are you familiar with the word Tesseract? Wait a minute. Because I think that should be a drinking game. I think you should watch Avengers and have to do a shot every time they say Tesseract? Really, man? Because I think that should be a drinking game.

I think you should watch Avengers and have to do a shot every time they say Tesseract. Yeah, they say that shit a lot. I still don't know what a Tesseract is. Wait, do I say what's the play in Avengers or Captain America? In the Avengers. Do I? I just saw it a couple days ago and one audience member is nodding yes. I don't remember you saying that either, man. In that movie. I don't know. I don't remember you saying that either, man.

In that movie. I don't know. I don't remember. You saved his ass. I'm also a big fan of What's Your Number? Don't say that. No, but I'm saying it. Does it make the book? Is it in the book? Yeah, of course it's in the book.

Let's see what the book says about it. No, I like that movie, and I like you in it a lot. And I've never seen you. I think you've got great comedy that movie and I like you in it a lot. And I'd never seen you... I think you got great comedy chops and I thought it was fun to watch. Okay. Take that. Thank you, thank you.

You sound like my mother. Just one man's opinion. Oh, I shouldn't say this. People are... I really enjoyed't say this. People are... I really enjoyed making that movie. Don't... Don't skulk, as you say it. Troy, see, that skulk was for the people who couldn't see,

and you ruined me. Smart, bawdy, briskly funny comedy charged by Ferris and Evans comedic, savvy, and likability. I think that's exactly what my mom said. Unrated version runs 117 minutes. Thank you, Leonard.

And now you know. Now you know. Gotta know that. And why do we have two of these out here, but one of them looks smaller? This is for me. It comes out in two handy sizes. One is smaller than the other. This is not handy.

In the back pocket. And one is cheaper than the other. And one is kinder for people whose eyesight is starting to fade. Oh, yeah, this one. I think I would have trouble with this one. Oh, shit. I have enough trouble with the app, so I'm staying away from the books.

The app will be updated soon. The app isn't synced yet with the 2013, but it will be soon. All right. So maybe for the first time, we'll have like this will be like second prize gets this. We can do that. Yeah. And it gets the smaller one, but the winner gets the big one. Whatever you say.

That's the one. You're the ringmaster. All right. That's what we're going to do. Chris, in the final scene. Wait a second. Wait a second. Wait a second.

Yes, sir. How are we delegating which book goes to which prize? Can you go over it one more time? Sorry, me. I love that. Not only did you do that, then you did it slowly. That was really...

Because by the time I started doing it, I forgot what I was going to do. I just want to ask Chris Evans, for everyone who sat around and watched the final scene in The Avengers, the final, final scene, after the end credits, when you're eating, and I don't care if this is a spoiler at this point,

when you're in the shawarma restaurant, right? Yeah. Where does, I can't see Captain America's shield anywhere. Does he have a special locker or does he just lock it up in his apartment when he goes out to eat with the rest of the Avengers in their costumes? I'll do you one better. You also can't see his fucking face

because... That's not you! It's me! I was in I was doing a thing in Prague where I had a full beard and they were like shave your beard and go back to Prague and just lay a fake beard in and I was like I'm not gonna do in Prague where I had a full beard and they were like, shave your beard and go back to Prague and just lay a fake beard in. I was like,

I'm not going to do that. And I said, just CGI it out. Just CGI it out. I have to start working this movie in like a day and I'm not going to shave the beard.

So instead, we did a prosthetic, a facial prosthetic. I want to put this down, but I won't. They had a facial prosthetic that went under my eyes and around my whole face.

It looked like I got attacked by a hive of bees. I came to set and I was like, is this what we're... It went into my lips. And everyone's eating and drinking in the scene. I can't eat or drink.

And it looked so awful. Joss was like, well, you just gotta do this. And that's what I do in this scene. That's what you do. That is so weird.

I should describe you just, for the listeners, you should describe that action. Put his hand in his hair. Charlie Brown. Charlie Brown style. So just put your head on the table the most clever way to

mask the majority of your ridiculous face as a result of a horrible prosthetic low key in that scene low key but uh did you have that were you ready for that I think you had that? Were you ready for that?

What? I think you had that. No, those things just happen. Yeah, all I have is the where's your shield, because I was really concerned, because I was looking for it this time. Not where's your face. I wasn't paying any attention to his face.

I just thought the shield should be right there or something. It's nowhere. Because a guy came in, his face. I just thought the shield should be right there or something. It's nowhere. Because a guy came in, his name tag last week was Shield. Or maybe two weeks ago, but recently. Last week, right? It was a guy who had a whole Captain America shield. And he was off by one week. Because he's not back, is he?

Ha ha, fucking idiot. Timing. he missed his chance he missed his big chance timing is everything yeah it really truly is and that's why it's time to say

does anyone hunger for games now of course, Adam is one of the better players of this game. I hate to break it to you. Do you want to just sit there with your head in your hands? I've never made it to the crazy round or whatever. Like, I've never gotten past... That's what it's called, super crazy round. Bro, it's gonna get crazy.

But, you know, I've never made it past here. I think you got into one tournament of championships. There's a tournament of championships. There's a second location tonight. Yeah. No, never go to a second location with a hippie. But, uh... Alec Baldwin, 30 Rock.

So... go to a second location with a hippie. Alec Baldwin, 30 Rock. Leonard, are you familiar with a new game we've been playing called How Much Did This Shit Make? No. Oh, it's exciting. Can't wait to tell you about it. How Much Did This Shit Make is basically I take a movie that, you know,

some people may not appreciate that much. And I always try to theme it or tie it into, you know, who the guests are or something like that. And I'm pretty sure neither of these fellas was in this movie. But I looked at the top movies, the top box office earners of all time, domestically, and the highest rated, or lowest

rated, however you want to come at it, but the movie that you gave bomb to, it took until the 235th highest ranking movie of all time is the first one you designated a bomb. Everything above that, movies 2, 34 through 1,

you give one star, one and a half, two, you know, all over the map. But the first bomb that comes up, you want to guess what it is? I'll never get this. Can you tell us how much it is? Your first bomb. No, because that's what we're going to play,

is you guys are going to guess how much it made. But the first one that you called a bomb, that's the 235th highest ranking movie This is a lost cause before it begins. is Little Fockers. Oh, wow. Big hit in spite

of your bomb designation. Yes, and I have no question or no qualms about that. That's fine. I'm sorry for the people who spent that money, but hey, that's, you know. So now, Price is Right style. Yeah. Everyone's going to guess how many millions

they thought it made without going over. Okay. And someone can pull the fast one of saying, I'd like to bid $1 if they want to be that person. So if you go over, you automatically lose. It will not, yeah, you can't win if you go over. This is domestic theatrical box office, right? Mm-hmm.

Okay. According to Box Office Mojo and my limited skills at taking down information. I want to see you taking Mr. Moulton's ratings and getting on Box Office Mojo and figuring out how he rated each of the 234. It's so arduous you have to be high. I would imagine.

Like, you have to be so fucking stoned. Yeah, and it's fun. And next time you do that for like 236 to 500, can you call me? That sounds fun to me. I'll do it. I'll seek them all out. There might be one that ranked higher that I missed.

I had some ideas. I thought you might have given Bomb to one of the Transformers movies. It was tempting. Or the third Pirates of the Caribbean. Yeah. You know, there was a few big hits. What's your number again? Yeah. I think three stars. Three, I think.

Flushing your credibility. He's pretty stingy. Sometimes, if you believe in something, you swim against the tide. What could I say? What is the four-star movie, Mr. Malton, that you gave four stars to that got the most negative feedback, like people do not agree that it's a four-star movie? Those are not the ones they hassle me about.

Ever? Ever. That's rare. It's rare to get bad feedback about a four-star review. Because we give so few of them. We're really stingy. We're really stingy. Maybe one a year.

Maybe two in an extraordinary year. Yeah, you're the Scrooge of movie star giving. Yes, thank you. I wear that mantle proudly. Thank you very much. And so what's the time when you call something a bomb? Or like, did you, something a bomb, or like, did you, I'm sure, have teenage girls confronted you about your Twilight reviews?

No, they can't find me, so, which is just the way I like it. You do blend into the trees. Like a wolf that hates vampires. Alright, so we have to play this game. So, how many dollars do you think, millions do you think it made? that hates vampires. All right, so we have to play this game. Okay.

All right. So how many dollars do you think, millions do you think it made, Leonard? Who goes first, me? You can go first. I'll say, I'll start the bidding at 100 million. Okay. I'll say 90.

I'll say 135 million. I don't think it broke 100. I think it did. Dang, 250 down? Use your microphone. Sorry. I think we can still hear you even when you hold it down there. But Adam Scott is our winner

because the actual total is higher than $135 million. It's $148 million. Little fuckers. Yeah. Fool me once, fool me twice. Go ahead, fool me again. He bid 90, I bid 100.

Adam went the highest. I went 135. He said 135. I'm trying to pull that shit at me. I like your contentious spirit. I like that. Thank you. That means you're really ready

to go after these guys in the Leonard Maltin game. Leonard Maltin. This is a bit of a dream of mine. Doug? Fever dream? I am playing the Leonard Maltin game

with Leonard Maltin and Captain America. But I've already acknowledged that you are a better player than I am. It's been a while. It's a fact. I think it'll be a fun competition. I can't wait to dive in. Let's just talk about it and not do it.

It's happened, Jeff Garlin. Gentlemen, these are the name tags that these people went to the trouble of making. Oh, what's happening? Oh, this is so interactive. Oh, what's happening? Come on, Captain America, pull it together. Figure this out quickly.

What's the play? You pick the name tag that you would like to play for. Tesseract. Is the beer guy around? Can we get another beer? Yeah, we can get you another beer. Let's get another beer out here for the captain. Wait, how do we do this? What's happening? You stand up and go out into the audience and pick a name tag that you would like to play for.

Hopefully we have another beer flying in. Just whatever name tag you like. Does anybody have an Avengers themed name tag? Or something that would appeal to somebody with limited... Oh, there you go. Limited. I don't know what I was going to say. Yeah, take it from him. Or her. I'm sorry.

Sorry, ma'am. Oh, and now he's dropping it on people? This is the clumsiest superhero I've ever met. Alright, don't read the thing on the back. That's the shithead for at the end. Don't read it out loud, yeah. Yeah, how does this work? What am I supposed to be doing? Just don't look at the back and say it out loud.

But show everybody what the name tag is. Just don't read it out loud. How hard is that? Are you... I thought I wasn't supposed to know it. So I can know it. Okay. Use your microphone voice.

Okay. And there's another beer for you. I don't know if that's a good idea. All right, Adam. Who are you playing for? I'm playing for Brian Harns. Harris. Harris.

Brian Harris. And his sign is totally weird. There's a picture of him and then also some fruit snacks. Did you pick it because of the fruit snacks? Yes. I think this is a drive-on for somewhere. A drive-on pass. All right.

To LA Studios? And I believe it's all connected to some sort of coffin for an animal. I hope. All right. Well, thank you for bringing that, Harris. Bye. I'm going to call him by his last name. And what do you have there?

I have Milhouse. Chris Evans is going to play for... Does this mean I'm playing for Jessica? She wrote Jessica on it, yeah. I'm playing for Jessica. There you go. Do you hang out with Ryan Lochte at all? Are you insulting my...

No. I'm just saying you both have the same vibe, the laid back. Moronic. No, no. I would never say that. I don't really know. Limited vocabulary. And Leonard

is playing for, I assume, her name is Katie. Yes. And she made a change to Kiss Me Kate. To Kiss Me Goodbye Katie. Kiss Me Goodbye Katie. With a rendering of the spanking scene from Kiss Me Kate, Kiss Me Goodbye Katie. Kiss Me Goodbye Katie. With a rendering of the spanking scene from Kiss Me Kate, the old musical. Oh, I thought it was from Secretary.

I have fun. All right, so we've got Katie. Leonard's playing for Katie. Adam's playing for Harris somebody. And Chris is playing for Jessica Milhouse. Nixon. And Adam's going to take off.

He's going to probably go out to the valet, get him to bring the car around, get the prizes out of the thing, come back in, then we'll start the game. So how is Swarma? Is it good? He really just walked off the fucking stage. Is that allowed? in then we'll start the game so how is shawarma is it good yeah you can get

away with a lot on this show but he had a nice sigh he's got a beverage you can't get in New York City anymore I'm no matter who you bet I'm sponsored by Chipotle so I bring this out sorry guys we delicious. For like $6.99, you can get a chicken burrito. I'll tell you later. All organic ingredients. It's like a farm crash. Sorry, Doug. You get to go first, Adam, because you won the

How Much Did This Shit Make game. And so you get to pick between three categories. Would you like... At MST3Kdork on Twitter suggested Sad Max, and that's movies where Mel Gibson's wife is dead. Or at Rowan Lane, R-O-W-A-N, like Rowan and Martin and Lane, as in Diane Lane, suggested songs about rambos,

and that's movies where Sylvester Stallone sings. And crab stickles, I'm not even going to spell that one, in front of Mr. Maltin, suggested triple nipple. And that's movies where one of the characters has three nipples. Yeah, you're giving me

that that's never happened look, but I thought of two. And one is a remake of the other. Oh, she did. Okay, I thought of three. All three of these categories are so specific. Yeah, people have really gotten into these specific categories. It's really fun when you think you know the answer.

Okay, I'll go sad. Based just on the category. I'll go sad, Max. Yeah, so you're already thinking about it. This particular one is from 2002. And we'll go to Leonard next after

we'll go around that way. This is always freaky to me. Someone in this room gave it two and a half stars. This person claims that it's from 2002. I have no way to disagree. I can't look it up on IMDb right now. And he also said about this movie

that it's downright silly at times. And he says the writer-director of the film played Ray, a character named Ray, and there are six names listed. How many names do you think you can get it in, Adam? Scott. Fuck.

Six names? Do you have a microphone? Sorry. What year was it? What year was it? 2002. That long silence. I thought you were looking to see if I was married.

I was checking that out. I've heard stories. This was 2002? Mm-hmm. So how many names, Adam? Three. Three, he says. So he just needs three names, Leonard.

Do you want to, do you think you can get it in less or do you have to challenge him? Name that movie, Adam. Alright, Adam. Your three names are Patricia Calimber, Abigail Breslin, and Rory Culkin. Culkin, somebody just said.

I've never heard somebody excitedly whisper Culkin, somebody just said. I've never heard somebody excitedly whisper Culkin. I would, though, because I like those. All the Culkins are good. Not to confuse you with other Culkins. Laurie Culkin. I think Mr. Moulton's about to get a point. Oh, signs. You son of a bitch.

That's like slow rolling in poker. It's like you knew it all along. Well played. Yeah, yeah. Oh, wow, you look angry. He is pissed. I'm not angry at him, I'm angry at me. I couldn't think of what film it was.

But you had ideas, right? No, you only need one idea. Which is the name of the movie. Could you name any movies where Mel Gibson's wife is dead? What's the man without a face? Yeah, why would your wife dies as soon as she finds out's the man without a face? Yeah, why would your wife dies as soon as she finds out

you don't have a face? That was the first one that came into my head. He's played a lot of weird letters. Lethal Weapon, Braveheart. Was she dead? She wasn't dead and we were soldiers. She was alive. That was heartbreaking.

He had to leave her. Very sad. If his wife didn't die in Braveheart, there'd be no rest of the movie. Because that's what spurs him into action. Yeah, when your wife dies, paint your face blue and go nuts. Jesus, come on.

His wife is dead in The Gringo, too. Brand new movie. I haven't seen that one. No, I don't know if she's dead. She's probably dead in that, what was that one about innocence? Or, you know, where he's a vigilante. I don't think he ever has a living wife. I saw that.

Yeah, he compared scars with Rene Russo. Is Mad Max married? I don't remember. Mad Max probably lost his family. Oh, for sure. Yeah. Mad Max lost a whole continent. Yeah.

Probably. That shit was cray. All right, you ready, Chris Evans? Yes. Your time to step up and play the game, picking a category between these three, and then next in line will be Leonard. We'll go back around the other way.

At Below Zilch suggested Doug loves guests and this is movies that feature one of the guests that's on the show right now. All three of you are eligible. Or James Gandolfini celebrating a birthday today. Fantastic actor. So the films of James Gandolfini Celebrating a birthday today Fantastic actor

So the films of James Gandolfini Or In theaters, ciao That's films that take place in Italy I'll do James Gandolfini Okay Definitely avoiding the opportunity To know one of his own films

Probably a smart play deftly avoiding the opportunity to know one of his own films. Probably a smart play. Okay, someone complained to me on Twitter that I haven't been saying lately whether I agree or disagree with how many stars you give it. So let me just say... Because one person complained on Twitter? Wait a minute. That's all it takes.

That's all it takes. Yeah, yeah. You like to please the customers. Yeah, but it also reminded me, like, oh, that was fun when I used to do that. I don't know why I stopped doing that. Okay.

Especially now that you're sitting here. Yeah. I can say it to your face. Sure. Say it to your smiling face. Until I turn my back on you. And you don't have Sam Levine here to protect you this time.

He's in Philadelphia doing a TV series. Yeah, I heard that. Good for him. Excited about it. Two and a half stars you gave this movie. Mm-hmm.

Mm-mm, mm-mm. Okay. I am not having that. All right. This is four star movie in my book. Okay. Okay, three and a half.

You talked me down. Your winning ways talked me down If we keep going We may get right up close I don't know what that means We're only one star apart now Oh, I see Two and a half stars, you gave it

The year is 1983 Fuck The year is 1983. Fuck. Oh, yeah. It's a young Gandolfini. Please swear into the microphone. Mr. Moulton says about this movie that it's highly stylized.

I should say specifically the violence is highly stylized. I don't want to take you too far out of context, which I do on occasion for fun. And he also says it has colorful, supporting characters. And he lists a shitload of names. Twelve names. Thirteen names. Let's go with thirteen.

How many can you get it in? I need all of those. What's your number? I need all of those. Again, didn't think of that beforehand. Yeah, I need all all those names, dude. I got nothing. Okay, so 13 is his opening bid.

Shit! That's all right. I'm like boozing games when I'm drunk. So you'll probably want to go 12 or less, whatever you feel comfortable with. I'll say 11. 11's a good bid. Adam?

I'll go 7 7 Is Parks and Rec already back? On Thursday Night So yeah So if you missed it last night This is going to come out on Friday

So if you missed it last night Go to your DVR, your On Demand And then watch that And then watch again next Thursday on Friday. Yeah, so if you missed it last night, go to your whatever, your DVR, your On Demand or whatever, and then watch that and then watch again next Thursday. Yeah, 9.30. Do you guys get preempted by the SNL campaign stuff?

I think that'll be on at 8, the SNL election coverage. So up all night is sitting it out or something? It's SNL election, then 30 Rock, and then The Office, and then us. Nice.

Good answer. Usually people don't know that kind of stuff. Or maybe it's up all night at 8.30. I don't know. I think it's 30 Rock. Oh, shit. All right. We'll fix it in post.

We'll put a fake beard on you Chris It's to you now Six names Adam says You can either ask him to name it Or you can bid lower He said seven? Seven names

Thank you audience Another time when you can do that. What's that? Bitch. Whoa. Okay. I've had like nine of these. I understand. You've had nine Milhouse masks?

Okay, so you get seven names. And here they are. Samuel L. Jackson, Tom Sizemore, Christopher Penn. Wait, you said 1983. I think you meant 93.

You're right. Okay, so... That's fucking huge! I told you, the number 83 and 93 is hard to distinguish. That's enormous. That's enormous.

What, he figured it out? Yeah, he obviously knows it. I would have bid zero names. If you had said 93, I would have bid zero names. Well, you get seven names, and here they are. Wow, this is so fucking bullshit. So just name it. True romance.

So yeah, so he got to stomp you a little less than he would have if I said the right... This is some horse shit. You still... I was anticipating either true romance... It's funny, I said a really young James Gandolfini. I was like, wow, he's like... Really young, yeah. 19.

19 millimeter. Come on, dude. I had a couple locked and loaded. Did you say eight millimeter? Well, yeah. That's a really good poll for Gandolfini. Right? Sure. I had a couple locked and loaded. Did you say 8mm? Well, yeah. That's a really good poll for Gandolfini. Right? Sure.

I felt confident. You fucked me, dude. You could have gone a simple action. I didn't know. It would be another one. I didn't know. I didn't think you'd go there. I figured it's going to be one of the good ones.

The Mexican. All right, settle down. Settle down. We's going to be one of the good ones. The Mexican. Settle down. We're going to play that whole point over again. But Adam is still going to win. It's a special occasion. We can go a few minutes over. Can we get another beer, beer man? My friend Gabe is delivering beers. It's social drinking. but it's a special occasion so we can go a few minutes over. Can we get another beer, beer man?

Yep. My friend Gabe is delivering beers. This is just, you know, social drinking. Now you know there's a 12 beer minimum because that's all we bought. None of the rest of us are drinking. I'm in sober September. I'm on day 18. Good work.

Yeah. From pot, too? No. Are you crazy? From the guy who's? A bottle of wine This guy's sucking back a bottle of wine over there Be cool, be cool, they don't have a thing They don't have a thing

Be cool man There's no thing There's no thing Come on, we've There's no thing. There's no thing. Come on. We've got a no thing situation. Okay, I'm going to give you three new categories. Chris. Same name.

That's a movie that was also another movie with the exact same name. Okay. I know. It's happened. It's weird. There he is. There's his beverage. Captain America needs his go juice.

What's the play? Glug, glug, what's the play? Red team, go. You should suggest that for the next one because wouldn't he be excited that Prohibition is over when he came to the future? Okay.

I hope Marvel hears all of this. Yes. Listen up, Marvel. Maybe you could do the Batman reboot in three years. In theaters now, that's movies that are playing in theaters now. Or the Bjorn Legacy.

No one ever picks this. I don't know why. It's movies that have ABBA songs in them. Okay. So do you want a movie that's in theaters now? Are you aware of what's in theaters right now? I only have two options. Well, you don't want the ABBA one, do you? No, but I thought there was a third one.

There was. Same name. Movie that has the exact same name. Oh, same name, same name, same name. I don't like the other two. Okay. What's the same name one? I didn't really know, but I just figured I didn't like it.

The other two were just shitty. It's a good choice. This is a movie that there was a movie previous to this one with the exact same name, but they went ahead with it. Like, let's just call it this also, even though there's a known entity. Not a remake, but just the same name. Just a different, completely different movie. And this is the one that used the same name. And two and a half stars from Mr. Malton.

And I probably agree with that. I might go a shade lower. Maybe. But there is something about this movie that I love. Leonard calls this movie frenetic, and he also says that... He also says about it

that... It's incredulous? That it's a perfect vehicle for the star of the movie. And what year would that movie be? And that would be... 2005. I'm really giving it a second look now. It's not a six, it's a five.

2005. And you listed 11 names. What do you think, Chris? 2005. And you listed 11 names. What do you think, Chris? 2005. Would you like another plate of shawarma? I didn't get to eat shawarma, bro. I know, but you were doing the same pose just now. I just looked at it.

Wait, what are my options? If there was a tree right there, you would hit your head against it. What's the number? How many things? Five? Eleven names. Eleven names. Yeah, you can bid all eleven if you want.

I'll take... You're in a sweet spot. Eight names. We get to go first. Eight names. All right. Ballsy move. You like that?

Yeah, I did. Just get ready. Leonard? It's going to get crazy. I'll say seven names. Okay. What a dick I'll take five names Prick

Hey Make sure Don't listen to this one Leonard There's a lot of offensive stuff in it Adam Yeah Yeah

He said seven I said five. Adam? Yeah. Yeah. He said seven. I said five. You did? Yeah. Chris, it's back to you. No, I'm going to say Adam, show what you got, bro.

All right, so this is playing out exactly as I thought it would. The year is actually 1997. Okay, it's 2005 and your five names, Adam, are Laura Keitlinger, Stephen

Anthony Lawrence. That's three names. No, that's a guy with three names. That often happens in the Screen Actors Guild. Oh, I'm getting a call. Just because the two of you are lucky enough to get your own two names. What are your middle names,

if you had to go middle name in the SAG registry? My middle name is Robert. Is Robert? Chris Robert Evans? Christopher. You should be an actor who goes by Robert Evans. That would be super confusing. That's my dad's name.

And Adam, what's your middle name? Boy, I was cute. Well, you really lucked out that you didn't have to, that there wasn't another Adam Scott ahead of you. Elliot Cho was in this movie. Jeremy Bergman and Josh Hutcherson. Josh Hutcherson.

So he must have been Widow. Because he, of course, is Peeta in the Hunger Games. It's funny when he throws bread around. His name's PETA. I'm gonna need an answer, Mr. Scott.

I don't know. You have shit. The actor that I think is the reason I think we both think he's funny is Will Ferrell and the motion picture

is called Kicking and Screaming oh right and there was a Noah Baumbach movie called Kicking and Screaming which I actually enjoy quite a bit

so Chris gets a point Chris is on the board show's going long. Apologies to Comedy Bang Bang. And let's finish this off here. Let's make it happen. You're winning. You understand that.

No, you're tied for first. It's first person to two points. Adam has a point. You have a point. Here goes. Who challenged who on that last thing? Chris challenged me. Chris challenged you. Okay, so we start with Leonard and go, uh,

towards Chris. And, uh, you get to pick between Yabba Dabba Don't, that's a cartoon that was made into a live-action movie... Oh. Uh... Oh, shit. that was made into a live-action movie. Joseph Gordon Leave It.

That's movies where Joseph Gordon-Levitt leaves someone or has someone leave him. This one's so complicated, I don't even want to say it, but I'll say it anyway. At Blake underscore Blount suggested Mother Lover, and that's movies where an actor and an actress

played mother and son in one film and lovers in another. Whoa. Yeah, I'm going to tell you guys what that one is if it doesn't get picked. Are there a lot of them or just one? I just want to get rid of it. I found an example. I'm going to go for Yabba Dabba Don't.

Yabba Dabba Don't. Okay. What was Yabba Dabba Don't? What does that mean? It means it's something you say when you're excited about not doing something yabba dabba dum no it's cartoons TV cartoons that were turned into

motion pictures with live action and Flintstones would be an obvious one but I don't usually make it that obvious god I have to pay so bad and Mother Lover Just go, man.

What do you got? Seven minutes left? I can handle it. Mother Lover the films were for 88 and 94 because Sally Field and Tom Hanks

were lovers in Punchline and then Mother and Son of Forrest Gump. That's right. Yeah. So we're finally obliterating that

fucking category. Get that shit out of my phone. And now let's play Yabba Dabba Don't. Okay. As selected by Mr. Malton who gave this film a generous two stars.

Yeah. Something was up that day. It was like your birthday or some shit. It's fun to be able to say this right to you instead of when you're not here. You call this movie Goofy? And you also say that

Seth Green and Eugene Levy appear in it unbilled. I love when you mention the unbilled. What year? And the year is 2001. Or 1947. 2001.

Eugene Levy, South Green, appearing at unbilled because it's a two-star movie, at best, and it's goofy. And it's based on a cartoon. And there are 12 names. How many names do you think you can get it in? Fuck.

I'll try 10. That's a good starter bid. Go to Chris. I'll say nine. Whoa, that was Lucas Lee style right there. It kind of came out really different than the way I meant to speak normally. Instead, I was like, I'll say nine. Are you talking to that chair over there?

Clint Eastwood voice. Okay, Adam. I might go zero names on this. Maybe. Or for sure-sies. But it might be a big mistake because maybe I'm not... I don't know.

I might not... 2001? Yes. I... Did you go eight names? Yeah, just do your thing Chris has to get out of here I'll go five names Five names says Adam

Leonard Go lower, make him name it Four names Now who's got a piss I can't do that I can't fuck with four names So say name that movie Leonard Maltin Name that shit bitch

No I tell you exactly what to say You must be a nightmare to work with that shit, bitch. Whoa, I tell you exactly what to say. You must be a nightmare to work with. Oh, I don't want to shave my beard. I'll put the word bitch in any sentence I want. What's the play, bitch? Alright. It's just the beer talking.

You're not a bitch. Did you put that stuff in Prague? I didn't think so. All right. He keeps it cool in Prague. You don't want to get arrested in Prague. Is this Josie and the Pussycats? I didn't even give you the names,

and that's right! We got a three-way motherfucking tie in this shit. We gotta settle this. Apologies to Comedy Bang Bang. We won't be here next week, so Comedy Bang Bang will start on time next week.

Wow. Who knew this would come down to this? As only Maltin could. We've never had this exciting of a game when you're playing. I've never gotten a correct answer before either. What did you think it was, Adam? Scooby-Doo?

Scooby-Doo 2. Yeah. Part 2. Oh, you almost stepped in it. Because that's like 04, right? Scooby-Doo 2? You know, that's one thing I'm not much of an expert on.

When did that movie I had no interest in come out? That was... In fact, I've got to bring it up now, real quick. I auditioned for Scooby-Doo 2. Did you, Chris? How'd it go?

Really well. Nailed it. All right. This was played on the show once. I had a category called Full Review where I'd read the entire review. And do you remember your review of Scooby-Doo 2 Monsters Unleashed? No, I don't. Your review was five whopping words.

And it was, it is what it is. I do remember that. That's awesome. What year did it come out? Oh, yeah. That's why we're looking it up. 2004. Yes.

Yes. No extra points for that. Come on. Don't get cocky. All right. So what happened there? Leonard got the point. And who challenged him?

Chris challenged him. So we'll start with Adam. I did that shit. Start with Adam and then come right back at you, Chris. So pay attention. Trying. Trying. Have beer, 11 or 12.

I'm going to piss so bad. That's what gets you to stop drinking? I'm almost done with this. You don't want to push more pee through? Captain America peed in front of everybody. Okay. Did you know that you can order, you can walk up and just say

I'll have carnitas I'll have Just a taco with carnitas And then you get to choose the ingredients Be it cheese, sour cream Hot, medium Mild salsa Farm, fresh

Ingredients, people Anyway, sorry Sorry, Doug. Doug loves guests, triple nipple, or songs about Rambos? Doug loves guests. Doug loves guests.

Would you like a movie that one of you three gentlemen was in from 1990 or 2004? I didn't make movies in 1990. Good poker mouth. That's what I'm going to call it from now on when

somebody reveals too much. Poker mouth. Because Adam doesn't know that. You could have been a child actor. I'll go 2004. To get all three of us in it. Adam doesn't know that. You could have been a child actor. I'll go 2004. Okay. To get all three of us in it. So that eliminates Gremlins 2, the new batch from 1990 starring Leonard Maltin.

Oh, well. Okay, Adam, this is from 2004. Either you or Chris is in it. Two and a half stars. Or Leonard Maltin. Well, we could play that game theoretically he's only in that one film

that I just said right? yeah yeah he's the film critic that refuses to play himself which is awesome I love that about him

because how many times do we need to see Larry King play himself in a movie? I'm not satisfied yet two and a half stars for Mr. Moulton I'm not satisfied yet two and a half stars for Mr. Moulton I'm not going to agree or disagree your first two words of the reviewer

not bad not bad and it's based on a story it's based on a story... It's based on a story by one guy who also wrote another thing. That's a good clue. No, you say about this movie,

entertaining enough as long as you ignore the many plot holes. So, first of all, how dare you in front of my guests? Wait, when was it released? It was released... 2004. It was released in 2004?

Yeah, could be one of your movies, could be one of Adam's movies. You guys haven't worked together. Sounds like a lot of money. And... He lists ten names. Adam, how many do you think you can get it in? Huh.

2004. While you think about it, I'll do you think you can get it in? Huh. Four. While you think about it, I'll do my plug. Okay. Hang on. I'm going to be at the Ann Arbor Comedy Showcase October 6th at 420, the Arlington Draft House in Arlington, Virginia, October 7th.

I'm doing a taping of Douglas Movies at the Gramercy Theater in New York City on Monday, October 8th. Adam? What's your bid? Eleven names? Yeah. I'll go five names. Parks and Rec is back Thursday nights.

Chris? I'll do three names. Wow. Captain America 2, when can we look for that? We start in March. Nice. No, no applause. I have to piss. Let's get through this.

Try to show up for work with a shave. Try to shave before you show up. I'll go two names. You prick. Wait, wait a second. Can you do that? Can St. Leonard get to bid? Oh, sorry. Interesting ploy. No one's ever tried that.

Skip past the guy who's not into it. So you said four? Yeah. Okay, Chris said four. What do you think, Leonard? So who's the low bid, then? It comes to you. You can go lower than four,

or you can tell them to name it. Name the movie. All right, Chris. I'm going cellular. Your four names are... Chris Evans is our winner! It's Cellular! Not bad.

If you ignore the many plot holes. Where's the bathroom? Just run backstage and the guy who's been giving you all those beers will show you where to go. Chris Evans, everybody. Yeah, he won, right? So, Jessica, where's Jessica? There you are. Here you go, Jessica. Congratulations.

Do you want your millhouse back? Do you like, are you fond of your millhouse? Jessica, if you want your VHS tapes, you can meet me out front. Okay. So she's going to meet him out front for that. That's fun. I didn't know a rendezvous would be in the prize bag. And do we have shitheads written on the back of these?

Not on the back of Kiss Me Kate, but we have one on the back of this other weird thing. Who? All right. I'll try to say that. Where's the Kiss Me Kate girl? Katie. Hey, can you write on the back of yours someone for me to call a shoot head? And Leonard, the new

Leonard Maltin's 2013 movie guide, Two Oceans 13 I like to say, is in booksellers now. Sellers online, offline. If you can find a bookstore that's open, you can get it there, or you can use the internet.

I said second place was going to get this, but you guys tied for second place. So... She's moving. So she gets it because she's moving. You know, it was expediency that I liked about it.

I'm moving. Oh, that's a good reason. If that guy had said, I'm an asshole, okay, you get it. But she said, I'm moving. So you get to pack that into an incredibly heavy box

with all your other books. Apologies to the other guy. But you know what I'll do? I'll throw her name in as your shithead in addition to the one you picked. So, and Parks and Rec Thursday nights and lots of other stuff.

Adam Scott. And... As always, Johnny Witter Wilson is a shithead. Oh, and... Chris Evans' dick is a shithead. Katie's a shithead. And this is one of the weirder ones I've had in a while.

Glendale is a shithead. The city of Glendale. Thank you.
