Doug hates candy wrappers, screaming babies, sticky seeds With 50 acid pop or kernels in his teeth There's still not one that he won't see Cause Doug loves movies Hey, everybody. Was it me or did the theme song start like partway into it? Okay, don't you guys love hearing the whole song? Okay, can we go again from the top? Is that, can you?

Can we go again from the top? Can you? Alright. I'm coming Alright You don't have to go crazy again We'll use all of it I just think it's It's just so funny because it is a song It's just like It just starts, you know what I mean? There's nothing happening at the beginning of the song

They're just right into it And so it often gets cut off At the beginning of the song, they're just right into it. And so it often gets cut off at the beginning, but I love to try to play it all the way through if possible, but then we can fix it in post as we say, I almost said in Hollywood, but Atlanta is the new Hollywood, you guys. Holy shit. Holy shit. So, you know, I'm always excited to pick a date and come see you guys.

It's been about one year since I was here, but it's such a crapshoot, you know, like, who's going to be in town? You know, I've got a lot of messages this week from people giving really good suggestions to me, like, you know, get The Rock to be on. Taylor Swift, Jon Stewart. Yeah, I mean, I knew Jon Stewart back in the day, but when he became a serious newsman, he lost interest in me.

Anyway, enough about... I'm just saying that it's great to come here, and I'm very excited to get the kinds of guests that, you know, frankly, when they're in Los Angeles, they're too busy, but now they're also not in Los Angeles because they're in Atlanta. Let me start from the top. Hey, everybody.

My name is Doug and I love movies. Coming to you once again from the that's not where you cacaw. Coming to you once again from the Variety Playhouse in Atlanta, Georgia! It's Sunday, August 12th, 2018.

And if you could please put the house lights up a little bit, I would like to see some hot name tags. Hot Lanta. I love Natatouille doesn't even bother to lift her. She's just like, it's Natatouille. Look at it. Get into it.

Killdill. Didn't I just see that somewhere? Right? Oh, that guy's just a donut. He's just a face and a donut. I don't know what his name is. I mean, I guess there was a Simpsons movie,

and that's a pink donut. So it's a Simpsons donut, right? Allie N? Thank you. What's this Bane thing up front here? What's that about? It's an IMAX midnight poster. What's this Bane thing up front here? What's that about? An IMAX midnight poster for Batman and Rises.

And, oh, the weed's good here, by the way. And what's your name? How'd you work your name into it? You didn't? You're just holding up a picture of Bane. Go back into the shadows, citizen! Great job, everybody. Thank you for bringing those. Yeah, get ready to whip them out again later. Oh, I shouldn't have said that. Hashtag me. Shouldn't have said it.

Doug Plugs. August Wednesday, August 15th, I'm doing stand-up at the Improv in Tampa, Florida. If you bring a name tag, you can get up on stage and find out how hard it is to play movie trivia while you're on stage in front of people. Yeah, it's a different kind of pressure,

which my guests will be under in just a few moments, and you'll see. August 18th, next Saturday, Douglas Movies returns to the Improv in Orlando at 4.20, and then we're going to be doing one from the Hard Rock Hotel in Vegas on Saturday, August 25th as part of Ellis Mania. And this one is at

10 a.m. Yeah. I mean, of you guys that are here today, applaud if you would come to a 10 a.m. Doug Lowe's movies. Alright. Bunch of liars. Anyway, that one's free,

so if people just show up, they can get in. So maybe that's a good reason to get up. DLM is also coming to Kansas City, San Diego, San Jose, and more. So for all of my dates, deets, and links, go to Douglovesmovies.com. Go to Douglovesmoovies.com DougLovesMovies.com Yeah! Yeah! Of course that was going to happen in the home

of the Falcons. Check it out you guys. Prize bag. It's a lovely blue bag that's actually a lovely blue bag that's actually quite a good bag for the beach or whatever that says TCFF on it,

which means... Tuckin', cuckin', fuckin'... No. It's the Traverse City Film Festival, which I attend every year and enjoy a great deal. So enjoy the bag that they gave me, along with, oh my God, some amazing stuff. On the plane they gave me with my hamburger,

cheeseburger, hot dog. You'll get nothing and like it. No, it was Sir Kensington's condiments. Yeah, it's a really classy little box. And check this out, you guys. You're not going to believe it. It's got mayonnaise, ketchup, and mustard. Yeah, all the condiments you need.

I don't like any of them. Also in Traverse City, I got a couple of stickers from the Traverse City Whiskey Company and Coin Slot, which is one of those fun bars where you can play games until somebody steps in front of you in the middle of your skee-ball game and just starts playing and you feel bullied, but you're also like, he's 14.

A Douglas Movies sticker. Oh, another place you're going to get bullied, you guys. I hope none of you were there. If you see a Taylor Swift show and your fucking wristband, the little light that's supposed to flash on it doesn't work, you get treated like you're a witch or something. They tried to drown me in the koi pond outside the Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Fucking stupidest stadium name. Mercedes-Benz Stadium. It gets great mileage on the highway. You know what? Downtown traffic in Atlanta didn't need a stadium in addition to its normal downtown traffic. Where crossing the street when it says walk is at your own peril.

People don't fucking care when they're turning right. And the Doug Loves Movies t-shirt. And for, you know, what I use for road rage or pedestrian rage. A lovely Christmas water pipe. That's what we call them in these parts. From Peacemaker, so go check out all their water pipes. And finally, this just was on the bottom, but I think it's the best thing to save for last,

a button that just says on it, Won't You Be My Neighbor, in reference to the tremendous documentary about the nicest weirdo that ever lived. Can't be that weird and nice and not done something wrong, except for him. He told the guy, don't be so gay.

That was the worst thing he ever did. And he thought he was looking out for that guy. He thought he was doing him a favor. Speaking of doing favors, my four guests today are so nice to be here. Yeah, two longtime friends and two brand new friends. So please, everybody, give it up for David Harbour, Joe

Pettis, Justin Thompson, and Lucky Yates! Thank you. All right, guys, put your shirts back on. We've got a movie trivia podcast to do. Let's meet them individually, starting from all the way on the other side of the stage from me, a first-time guest on the show. It's David Harbour, everybody. Oh, my goodness.

Pretty much living in Atlanta with all the Stranger Things filming, right? Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yeah, so how many people here have, like, bumped into him somewhere? Anybody? Anybody have any stories? Was he nice? Yeah, who was I mean to?

Who didn't I take a selfie with? Is he a good tipper? But do you like spending so much time in Atlanta? Not really. Oh, no. Finally finally some clickbait from my show. David Harbour says about Atlanta. Yeah, I know. Buzzfeed articles all day tomorrow.

No, no, I just live in New York. I mean, Atlanta's great. It's like a really nice city, but I know no one here, and so I tend to just sit in my house and smoke cigarettes. You know, things like that. Aww. That's because you're staying in character, right?

Yeah. That's why I do it. I mean, that's got to be hard, though, to be, if you were thinking about quitting cigarettes, to play a character who smokes cigarettes is pretty terrible, right? Yeah. I love smoking cigarettes, but I actually did the first week of this season

I quit. Wait, are you giving away a plot detail? No, no, no. Season two? Season two's already come out. Wait, what are we on now? Oh, my God.

Watch the show. Wait, when you watch the show, it tells you how many seasons it is? It's a really popular show on television. No, Hopper still smokes, but I started smoking the Honey Rose herbal cigarettes. Have you partaken in these? Mm-mm.

Oh, they're delicious. Yeah, that doesn't sound good. There was a... I will say that we got a little bit of pressure because there was a... You know USA Today? You know this publication? America's newspaper, some people call it.

You know how they have those graphs? Pie charts? Yeah, the pie charts, which is the only reason why you want, you know, Read USA Today. They had a pie chart saying the amount of smoking in television shows. And there was a picture of me,

my face with a cigarette hanging out, looking particularly tired and angry. And our bar chart was double every other show, I think including Mad Men. And it's a kid's show. So we're bringing it back. It's an accurate kid's show. That's what you were like when you were 12 years old right Doug?

my parents smoked like crazy and that made me disgusted by it it didn't appeal to me let me see if I've got another question for you okay I have two questions for you

real quick. First of all, you're playing the title role in the reboot of Hellboy. Yeah. Yeah, something told me this crowd would like that news or probably already know that news. It comes out in January? It comes out in January, yeah, yeah. Yeah, cool, cool.

And the other question is, thank you for your brevity, the other question is... I'm just going to say as a statement, you're in a James Bond film, and the specific one you're in, the title has always made me wonder, so the question I have for you is, how much solace is a quantum

of solace? Not a lot. It's a small amount of quantum? It's like a quark. It's like a quark of peace. Remember that show Quantum Leap? He'd go years. Yeah, you know, that was so funny.

I think it was called Bond 22 when we were shooting it. It was just called Bond 22. That sounds cool, like the next one, Bond Black. There'd been 20. It was the 22nd Bond movie they made. And then, so we only found out that the title, you know, when they were promoting the movie, like way after we shot it.

And when I saw the poster, I had no idea what that meant or why it was related to the film in any way. Yeah, you'd read the whole script and were there. Most of it, most of it. Yeah. Might have skipped the pages where the villain has to drink motor oil. That's the weirdest villain.

Does that happen? It does. Should watch the movies that I'm in. It doesn't happen in the first ten minutes, I'll tell you that. No, it does not. It does. It happens much later, Agent Baker or whatever. What was your name?

Agent Baker. Was it? Yes. No! What was your name? It was Agent Somebody. Is that really so insulting? No, it wasn't Agent. It wasn't Agent, was it? I was the head of... Oh, no, wait, wait, wait, wait. I was the head of the CIA.

I was the head of the goddamn CIA. Head agent is your title. I was Jeffrey Wright's boss, and I remember... No, no, no, hold on. I have a head of the goddamn CIA. I was Jeffrey Wright's boss. And I remember, no, no, no, hold on. I have a little movie story. There's a little insider story you don't know about the movie. They had us do reshoots because they wanted to put us at this

party with the villain, like, Lighter. No, not Lighter. Felix Lighter is his good friend. Right, that's Jeffrey Wright. But whatever the villain's name is. And there was this, my guy was kind of skeevy, and he had a horrible mustache. I found out. So at one point, I had him at the party go hit on a girl. And, you know, Bond doesn't say his iconic line anymore.

And this is how I remember my name, because I went up to the girl and I said, Beam, Greg Beam. Yeah. Wah, wah. I thought that would be much bigger. I apologize. That's probably the second funniest moment in that film

after the drinking motor oil in the desert. But yeah, Greg Beam. And Greg is spelled with two G's. Correct. As it should always be. At the desert. But yeah, Greg Beam. And Greg is spelled with two G's. Correct. As it should always be. At the end. It's spelled with three G's.

Which is my normal speed. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Thank you for being here, dude. Thank you for humoring me on that stupid question. Sitting directly to the sheriff's right, it's Lucky Yates, everybody.

Thank you, thank you. Thank you so much, Atlanta. I do like being here. Lived here since 1992, so fuck you, Sheriff. I'm kidding, I'm kidding. You can hate it all you want. I don't care. I thought you were kidding about how long you've been here. No, I've been here since 1992. Last century, Doug. So that was a case of, of course we know him from the show Archer. So they cast some voices locally because it's a show that's produced in Atlanta.

Yeah, they make the entire thing here. And Amber Nash, who plays Pam Poovey, and myself work at Dad's Garage Theater doing improv comedy. Right on. Shout out. Anyway, back when they were doing shows... Do you think she would do this show?

Absolutely. Damn it. Yeah. Sorry. You got third prize, baby. I meant in addition to you, or instead of one of these guys. I know what you mean. Okay, so continue.

I'm sorry. Okay, so continue. I'm sorry. Back when Matt and Adam, the producing and writing team, were doing shows for Adult Swim, which is also based here in Atlanta, they did a show called Sea Lab 2021.

And it was like... It was made by like six guys in a house in East Atlanta. Guys! From Detroit, what do you want? Anyway, so they then started doing Frisky Dingo, and they put, yeah, right on. And Amber played a character on that, and I also played one of the X-tacles on that show.

And then so when that ended, and then they started doing Archer, they cast all the main characters, but our two characters were going to be these little side joke guys that would appear every once in a while, but not a lot. And so they just hired their buddies that had already been doing shows with them.

And who knew? The goddamn thing hit. Yay! You are the most popular character on that program. Amber actually is. Pam Poovey, I believe, is the most popular. Deservedly so. Pam Poovey is the number one.

I didn't do an official poll. Just one person told me. Right on. I just heard that you were the best character and I thought everyone would agree because it was a really reliable source. But thank you, dude, for being here. Thank you, sir. Yeah. And also, just one more quick question. You're in The Adventures of Elmo in Grouchland. Yes, I certainly am. That is the birthplace of Lucky Yates,

actually. I was just dumb of Lucky Yates, actually. I was just dumb old Matt Yates when I did that movie as a puppeteer, because I'm a puppeteer. And I got my SAG points, and then when I went to go join the union, they were like, yeah, there's already a guy named Matt Yates with a union card, so you can't be Matt Yates anymore. So I had to change my name to Lucky. Anyway, yeah, Elmo in Grouchland.

What do you know about that? Just that you're in it or something? Yes. I just thought it was a cute, you don't seem like an Elmo in Grouchland kind of guy. It was in Grouchland, and I did the Grouch, various Grouch background characters.

Oh, because Oscar the Grouch has a bunch of grouchy friends? Yeah. It's one of those, hey, let's explain this beloved character that doesn't need explaining. So Elmo loses his blanket, which is his best friend, by the way. And it somehow magically

gets sucked through Oscar's trash can into the land we've never heard of before called Grouchland. And that's where Oscar comes from, some other dimensional place full of shitty people. That's what that movie's about. How do you get there? Like when the garbage trucks come, you just jump in? No, I don't know. There's some fucking portal in come, you just jump in? No, I don't know.

There's some fucking portal in Oscar's can. I don't know. They didn't really get into if Oscar is some sort of traveler or a scout. I don't know if grouches are planning to take over the earth, but it should be about that. at. This is a paraphrasing a friend of mine, Scott Aukerman, has a joke that he could never get anybody to laugh at.

No, I'm going to try. Do you know that Oscar the Grouch wasn't on set much because he spent a lot of time in the can. I paraphrased it, so maybe I fixed it. No, it's good. Yeah, you might have fixed it. I also might be laughing because I'm incredibly stoned right now.

Yeah! Yeah. Let's say hello to the gentleman Sitting next to Lucky It's a lucky seat I'd say It's Justin Thompson everybody Thank you Hey guys

Atlanta comedy phenom Frequent guests on the show My pick to win today I don't like to pick favorites, but you're not my favorite. There's one I think is going to win. But this isn't a popularity contest. But you've been on the show in the, where, like North Carolina?

We did North Carolina. And maybe South as well? We've done both the Carolinas together? Yes, and also here in Atlanta, if you remember. Oh, yeah, of course. No, but I'm just trying to talk up your, you know, you're more than just a regional comic like the next guy. You've been out there.

I'm a former champion of the show. You're a champion, that's right. Yeah. I don't know. How many times do you have to win to be a champion? I don't, if you win at all, I think. Yeah, it's, you know. Yeah, and.

Anybody, it's anybody's can win. Well, you know. You do know movies. You do know movie trivia. I, what? Yeah, I think I got it. I know of movies. You're aware that that's a thing?

I haven't seen most, but I can guess a year pretty accurately. Well, who were you playing against? Were you one before? Some real dumbos. Dumbos. They're so stupid, they need a new word. Dumbos. But thank you for being here dude thanks for having me

and let's hear it for Joe Pettis everybody hey y'all long time friend of me and the show you've been out on the show in California and all over the place as well. And I always like to plug your thing that you do here in Atlanta. And have you taken it on tour a little bit?

Yeah, I've gone a bunch of places, yeah. He does the underwear comedy show. Have you guys been to that? Not as many people who like C-Lab. But still a pretty good number. And the audience doesn't have to be in their underwear, just the comedians. No, but we encourage it. We do the last Friday of the month at the Village Theater here in Atlanta,

and if you come in your underwear, it's free. Yeah. Oh, well. Yeah, it's free. Who amongst us hasn't come in their underwear? Yeah, well. Yeah, it's free. Who amongst us hasn't come in their underwear? Yeah, yeah. Does it count if it was last Thursday? It only costs your dignity. Yeah.

Well, please, if you attend the show, please wear clean underwear. That's good advice. That's good advice, yeah. That's just great. It is good advice in life in general, but yeah. Well, please, if you attend the show, please wear clean underwear. That's good advice. That's good advice, yeah. That's just great. It is good advice in life in general, but yeah. It sounds super fun. I don't want to be on it or watch it, but I think it's a great thing you're doing.

And really, in this climate right now, it's just a good time. Let's just take off all our clothes and try not to worry about it. Basically, this show coming up in a couple weeks will be the five year anniversary. Oh my goodness. Five years of underwear comedy. Yeah. And I just turned 36 like two days

ago. So like I basically spent my entire 30s just touring around the country in my underwear. Why isn't it a show on Showtime or something? I don't know. I'm missing two teeth. I don't think I have the face. I don't think that's...

I don't think that's... I don't have the face for a TV. That's not a good reason. The host could be on just for a couple minutes. Yeah, yeah. But the premise is yours, so you should be able to turn it into something, I think. Talk to Hollywood for me. I'll make some calls, yeah.

I'll get Hollywood on the horn. First thing tomorrow. Not first thing, because it's three hours earlier there. Okay. And, you know, you don't want to wake somebody up with a pitch. I want to know what you guys brought for the prize bag, starting with Mr. Harbour down there. I know that you didn't necessarily know what I was talking about

when I said bring something for the prize bag. So let's see what you came up with. Should I go to you last? Is this going to be spectacular? Is it going to be spectacular? Is someone going to be very excited to get the contents of that bag?

Probably not. In that case Please continue I think you said I believe your text to me was Bring something you don't need anymore I think it was don't want I bring a lot of things that I want What?

Listen I listened to your podcast And people were bringing all sorts of huge Like fruit basket items And things like that Like just tons of shit What? What? Listen, I listened to your podcast, and people were bringing all sorts of huge, like, fruit basket items and things like that. Like, just tons of shit. They go a little crazy, and I like to try to dial it back, but... Well, I went crazy.

I was like, let's do this, you know? So, I mean, I brought one thing that's kind of normal, but I'll write... For whoever the winner is, I'll write something, like, fucked up on it. But we got... We have, like, merchandise for the show that we see. Yeah, like these little Funko things and everything.

Which, by the way, we receive no money or anything. They don't even, like, give us the actual things. And so finally, this year, I complained so much that they actually gave me, like, two of the things. And you're just going to turn around and give them away. Yeah. Because now I have them and I'm like, I realize why they didn't give them to us. Because we don't want them. But this is a Funko thing of Hopper from Stranger Things. He's in a car.

But the thing I love about this, the thing I really love about this is Hopper is a... Can you curse on this podcast? Yeah. Okay, okay. Hopper's a fucking chief of police. He's not a sheriff. He's not in the sheriff's department.

Hopper with sheriff deputy truck. Wait, I call you sheriff all the time. I know you do. You and everybody else. Chief. Chief Hopper. Not Sheriff Hopper. Jesus Christ.

All right, so I got that for people. The other thing is my girlfriend is trying to have me stop eating wheat. She's on the fool's errand of making me healthier. Do you chew gum? What the fuck is that related to? What the fuck? Wow, I said you could swear and it opened the floodgates. I know, seriously, it's true.

The fuck gates are open. I know, I know, I know. I just get excited. But do you chew gum? Is that a thing you do? Yeah, I chew gum, sure. That makes you crave wheat. That's a thing?

I'm just trying to agree with your... Who did you say? My girlfriend? Your girlfriend. All right. So anyway, she got these from Whole Foods. And they're Effie's homemade original oat cakes. So we thought that they were made

of oat. We didn't look at them. They're delicious and the reason why is because the main ingredient is wheat flour. So I'll be giving those up. The other thing I like to do in Atlanta because I don't know anybody and just like to sit in my place is I like to play

the old video game every now and again. so I recently went back and I purchased a game called Skyrim which is a who likes all see people are gonna be excited to get this shit so I purchased the the Skyrim cheat book Book, basically. That thing is thicker than War and Peace. I know, and that's why I had to get rid of it. Because I can't have this around in my bookcase anymore. But it has every quest and mission and statistics that you want. So you get a little bit of that. And then I have also some Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle fake tattoos

that I was supposed to give to my four-year-old nephew in New York, but I haven't been back there in months and months because our shoot went way over. And, you know, fuck him. He'll still probably turn five. Is that it? I thought I had one more thing in here. Is the bag part of it? I thought I had one more thing in here Is the bag part of it?

Or is that just your personal bag? No, this is my personal bag, sir Please, don't come between me and my bag I had one other thing in here Which I don't seem to have anymore Was it a small thing? It was peanut butter flavored Doggy toothpaste

which I don't like to apply to my dog so I was going to give that away but that's not here so I'll do that next year I didn't bring any jokes about the set of James Bond but thank you for bringing all of that stuff and let's I didn't bring any jokes about the set of James Bond. But thank you for bringing all of that stuff.

And let's pass it down if you guys can. Lucky, what do we got from you? Is that your personal bag as well? This is my backpack. It does not go with the prize. Sorry. This is my favorite backpack that I've ever owned and I'm not going to give it up. I want everybody to hear how big this book is.

Wait. Come on. It's cheat codes for a seven-year-old game. Come on, treat that kindly. Hang on, hang on. We got a Foley artist in the house. It's two years of reading right there.

It's so thick and heavy. Yep. That's what she said! Should I start talking? Hi. First up in the Lucky 8s prize pack, an Archer Mystery Tube. Yay.

That's cool. Sealed. I don't. They sent it to me after Comic-Con, so I'm assuming it's one of two things. It's either the posters we all autograph when we're doing autographs at Comic-Con and they put you

in, have you ever done the line down at Comic-Con? Anyway, they sit us all in a line and then they just shove posters down this factory line and you just sound like I'm sitting there with Jessica Walter like, and just as fast as you can and the people just sort of glance by you and go, thank you.

It's really weird. It might be a signed poster by my castmates. I don't know why I would want one, but I don't. Maybe it's one of those like peanut brittle snakes. Well, then the joke's on the winner of this little fiesta Why is it always peanut brittle? Why can't they put a different label on it? Nothing else battles like that, man

I kind of want to know I want to know what's in it Like what if it's What if it's a bunch of money Hey, hey, hey, hey Next up Who's good at opening stuff? Yeah, it's really secured for the Federal Express.

Next up. If you like what's inside, you get to keep it. Okay, go ahead. Every season, the network sends you a little treat, a little like, hey, congratulations, it's a new season. Used to be they sent you a fancy champagne or sparkling wine type thing and some chocolates. It was very nice. And then one year

when we were doing Archer Vice, they changed the game by sending us this weird prize pack like a ceramic alligator print dish. So you put rings or something in it? I don't know. It sits on my coffee table.

She brought that? No. No. I'm explaining the rest. I brought the best. What's with you guys telling us stuff you're not bringing? I have to give this thing a backstory or people won't give a shit that they fucking want it. I think just it being from you is enough.

Oh wow. He opened it. It's a pair of jumbo brass dice. Isn't that great without a story behind it? First of all, packaging overkill. Oh, man, so I don't even know what that is then. That is some bullshit right there. Come on, environment.

I really don't know what that is. This is fun two posters and they're both Archer posters signed by the cast Wow it's Archer danger Island yeah that was last season yeah yeah all right and then finally I brought I used to host movies for a service called Filmstruck, which is a really great streaming service that they do here in town. And I got some early swag. They were trying out swag, and so I got a Dickies shirt. I've only worn it like a couple of times.

It's clean. It definitely has dog hair. Probably some loose weed leaves on there because it's in my backpack. But that's a Filmstruck Dickies shirt size large. It's a really great streaming service if you're into films. The end.

They got all those Criterion collection films Yeah that's sort of like It was really out of my eye I was not in their league Alright so I've got everything Yeah that's everything sir Justin what'd you bring I brought some things from You got a bag I love it

Yeah, it's all ladies who do cool shit. And a T-shirt also. Let's open this up. Let's open her up. Justin's girlfriend just made him clean the apartment. So it says ATL, and it's got this really cool design on it. Yeah. It's designed by a local artist, Kat Royal and Olive Lynch did that, It says ATL, and it's got this really cool design on it.

It's designed by local artists Cat Royal and Olive Lynch. Did that, so... If you don't like ATL, you can go to ATHell. It's the new slogan of the town. I just... town. So I wasn't a part of the creation of any of those things? Enjoy it. I just like driving around downtown and being reminded that polar bears love

Coca-Cola. Joe Pettis, what do you have for the bag? We're running a little long. So if you have something that's quick. I bought a t-shirt. You guys know Austin. Stone Cold Steve Austin. I bought a t-shirt You guys know Austin Stone Cold Steve Austin He had a t-shirt Austin 316 I made my own

It's Pettis 420 You got them so excited for the other thing And because I'm a huge wrestling fan I bought a Money in the Bank Replica briefcase If you don't know Money in the Bank Has a contract in the Bank replica briefcase. If you don't know, Money in the Bank has a contract in it

for the WWE Championship at any time, anywhere. You can cash it in. That's not in there. But there is a contract for a lifetime admittance to a show I do most Fridays and Saturdays at the Highlander Barroom called 10 Buck Comedy.

Lifetime admittance for you plus one. Whoa, that's quite a deal. I had to put myself over. But it's also a lunchbox. It's a lunchbox, too. It's a lunchbox. Oh, I also have a laundry card with $3.24 on it. Oh, okay.

Good old easy card. The easy card. If you go to the Tropical Breeze number two, you're good to go. All right. So somebody's going to win all this stuff tonight. But before that happens, I've got a question for each of the panelists. And since two of the folks on the panel are newbies, I'll start down on this end with Joe Pettis, who knows what the question is. Right, Joe?

Yeah. What do you think the question is? What was the last movie? That's it. What was the last movie you saw? I saw... Let's say you're about to die. What was the last movie you will ever see?

I saw Ready Player One. Okay. Yeah. Like a few days ago on whatever streaming service I'm stealing from someone else. I think it's HBO. I think it might be on HBO. Yeah, I don't know.

I think I've seen the promos. Yeah. And did you like it? Yeah. It was enjoyable, but there were so many things that just didn't make any sense. It took me out of the movie a lot. Right.

And I can't remember any of those, because you know Pet is 420. But yeah, it was enjoyable. The fact that they start off with being, hey, I live in Columbus, Ohio. It's the largest city in the world. Because of video games, I was like, nah. We did a show in Columbus, Ohio together, and it's not that big of a city. Yeah, no, it's pretty.

It's pretty cool. Yeah, it's a short drive from the airport. And then how they all lived together. It was like, it felt like, I don't know, it was enjoyable, but it just felt like they just tried to rush too many things in all together at once. There was a lot of things in there, but I just like the Spielbergian tone to it, you know, and I got caught up in it. I still have to have viewing number two. But at this point, I'm more into it than you are. Right.

I like that I didn't really know who anyone was. It was people who were like actors and actresses. I didn't really know who they were. I was worried going in that there'd be too much of the avatars, and I'd feel like I was just watching a video game. And there was a lot of that, but they still made it work, I think. Right, right, right. I love how they're like, we made a world where you can create anything.

So we filled it with other people's creations. Very creative. That's all we have anymore. Just what's happened already. Let's do that again. No, but it worked. There's people in the audience disappointed in me. Like, I'm a filmmaker.

I can't have anything to do with it. Well, I don't know who produced the movie, but whatever company, whatever, like, Monopoly owns that movie, it seemed like they were just like, here's everything we own. Like, here's every property right we own. We'll throw it all into one movie. Yeah, I think they got borrowed some from others. Yeah, there's, like, some cool stuff in there.

That was cool. I'm telling you, the whole Shining section alone makes it work. Kubrick, listen. Justin, what was the last movie you saw? All right. Last movie I saw was Hereditary 2 in a dream I had. Wait, so a movie that doesn't have a sequel, you've seen the sequel. Were you that disturbed by Hereditary 1?

Because I know I'm not a fan. Oh, man, it was so spooky. It's haunted me for weeks. It was so spooky and boring at the same time. It's two hours and 15 minutes long. Like, I want a horror movie that's like 85 minutes, you know, and 70 if I leave when the credits start. Yeah. movie that's like 85 minutes you know and 70 if i leave when the credits start so i have no idea how the sequel would work um but i guess wait you had a dream of it what do you mean you have no idea

tell us about your dream the thing i've never said in my entire life. So it turns out being possessed by a demon is contagious. No one expected that, you know? Like it runs through the family or through shaking hands? Yes. So the last movie I saw...

Oh, I get it. It's hereditary. Listen, you wasted all your time With that dream answer What was the last movie you really saw? Sorry to Bother You Yeah, well that's the perfect thing to say right now Because I'm angry Did you like that movie?

Yeah, it was fantastic It's interesting, it makes you really polite When you're buying a ticket for it. Because you go up to the ticket seller, sorry to bother you. But I'd like one for sorry to bother you. It would be two, but I didn't want to bother anybody. Lucky Yates! What was the last movie you saw in any format, even dreams?

The last film that I watched was the 1980-something classic Strange Brew with Bob and Doug McKenzie. Available on Filmstruck, as a matter of fact. I watched it on Filmstruck. What's the catchphrase in that? They say A a lot. Yeah, take off, hoser. Take off, hoser. Yeah.

That was so big for a while. In the early 80s, man, we just thought our neighbors to the north were hilarious. There was that Rush song about take off. Yeah, from their album. Oh, my God. I love it. It was a comedy album, which I listened to incessantly. So you're here to say that that movie holds up and is fun?

It's fun, yeah. It's really pretty bad, but Max von Sydow is in it. He's the villain in it. Paul Dooley is in it. And it's basically Hamlet. They take the story of Hamlet and set it in a brewery, and then they throw Bob and Doug McKenzie into it, and it's fucking

brilliant and really just sort of awful but amazingly so. It's definitely worth a stoned watch if you've not. I recommend being inebriated in some way. Is this segment called Filibuster about

a movie? Yes. I think you just told us everything you know about it. I'm just selling the film. But why? Because I feel like a lot of people probably won't watch Strangethrough on their own unless it comes with some sort of rambling endorsement. Yes.

with some sort of rambling endorsement. Yes. I mean, I say dig deeper and go anything SCTV. Oh, man, absolutely. They did so much amazing stuff. But thank you for that. And Chief Hopper. Yeah, they say you can't teach an old Doug new tricks, but what was the last movie you saw?

I went to the Dine-In Theater up in Buckhead yesterday. Scratch that off the list. There you go. And I saw a lot of Equalizer 2. Okay, which parts did you miss? I missed the like right after they told me who the bad guy was.

The denouement where we had to clean up the bad guy. I was I'm good. I left. You missed the fight in the storm. Is that? Because the whole movie you see on the news. A storm is coming. When they go out and there's those four guys or whatever and he says, I'm going to kill you all.

It's just I only get one chance to do it and that makes me sad or something. From that point on, yeah, I was kind of like, I'm good. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, because it's like two and a half hours long. Yeah, it's really long, right? Yeah, it should be 55 minutes.

Exactly. 48 if I leave when the credits start. minutes. Exactly. 48 if I leave when the credits start. But man, like, you know, he's a... There's hardly any other actors I'd rather see just kill everybody than

Denzel. He's the greatest. Like, just all these guys are bad. I'm just going to kill them all. I'm just like, yep, if Denzel thinks they should be dead, I agree. Plus you get to see how shitty they are, most of them, before they die. He doesn't just kill guys that are just like, yep, if Denzel thinks they should be dead, I agree. Plus you get to see how shitty they are, most of them, before they die. He doesn't just kill guys that are just like, hey, I just got hired. New henchman. That would be a great premise for something.

A guy that's like, he's new to being a henchman, but he just always points that out when people are about to die. Oh, I don't really know this guy. but he just, like, always points that out when people are about to die. Oh, I don't really know this guy, you know? Oh, anyway. Sorry to bother you. Thanks for that, Justin. You're welcome. That was the cap that that segment needed.

And thank you, everybody, for enjoying Filibuster about a movie brought to you by the new show from the creator of The Simpsons. Didn't mean to spoil what the ad was going to be in this show, but now's the part where I ask Bert Kreischer to turn the program off, because he doesn't care about this part. And then I say in my Bane voice, Let the games begin!

Gentlemen! Look into the shadows! People brought name tags. If we can get the house lights up a little bit, that'd be awesome. There you go. There's a little light. I know it's hard for you guys to get to people,

but if you can locate a name tag you like and have them bring it to you, I'm sure they'd be happy to do that. The person in the balcony with the name tag, I'm sorry. That is just too far away. What are we supposed to be judging these on?

Just whatever your own aesthetic is. Whatever catches our eye? Yeah, whatever you feel. Just go get one. And while you do that, we'll do this. We'll be right back.

and then drive many miles to be here. Thank you so much for those beverages. One more time for Variety Playhouse, an amazing venue. One more time for Variety Playhouse, an amazing venue. They're on top of all of it here, but let's start with you there, Joe. You've got Laura Land. Yeah. No, she just went straight up with just Laura Land.

Laura Land. Okay. Yeah. And what drew you to that? There was donuts attached to it. Yeah. Whole box of donuts, you guys. Okay. Like, yeah. And what drew you to that? There was donuts attached to it. Yeah. Whole box of donuts, you guys. Yeah. Which I think was someone else's name tag,

but I just took both of them anyway. It says, three billboards outside eating Missouri. I don't know how to open it, though, but I'll get it open eventually. And they're local sublime donuts. All right. I'm just trying to support local businesses.

Wow, those do look delicious. I'm going to take a bite out of them before I throw them. They look expensive. Yeah, no, those are really nice. All right, what do you got there, Justin? Oh, I've got a chatty shack. I was duped. He said he had me on it,

and it's this lovely rendering with my name. Oh, it's not your actual face. But on the back, he had a lot of other guesses of people who might have been on the show. And nicely done. I'm not even mad anymore, you know? Pretty good job. This dude, Chaz just walked...

Is it Chaz? Chaz just walked him out with a bunch of faces with him. Well, turn it around so I can see it. I'll tell you who he thought might be here. Jeremy Piven. No. Trey Galleon. Arden Mirren.

Dan Van Kirk. What? Bobby Cannavale. I don't know how to get a hold of him. Sam Levine. David Cross and Graham Elwood. But yeah, those are all good guesses for sure. But what's the name of the person again,

Justin? Chad. Chad, okay. Good job, Chad. What do you got there, Lucky? I got Zack to the Future. Hand-drawn. Hand-drawn in Sharpie with some cut-out images. There's three people climbing out of a DeLorean.

You are wearing a top hat. Of course. Well, you know, that's my thing. A bearded fellow is wearing... Jeff Tate. Okay, he's wearing a cowboy hat and maybe he has a whistle, something around his neck on a supposed chain. I don't know.

And then I don't know if she is Garfunkel or Oates. That's Kate Micucci, who's Oates. Kate Micucci is wearing a sort of like a, I don't know, turn of the century type hat? I don't know. An old timey lady hat. And a long skirt and boots. And there's a bunch of candy

and some Sour Patch. Yeah, there's some candy on there. Oh. I forgot to have lunch. And I also appreciate that they started one on the back and they were like, fuck it, this looks like shit, it's not going to fit.

But they went with the economy and they were like, no, we're going to use this piece of plastic that will kill many whales in the future. I'm sorry, it really won't. We're going to be one weird colored layer millennia down the future. I'm sorry. It really won't. We're going to be one weird colored layer millennia down the line. I'm sorry, Lucky. I'm just so mad right now

because I just ate a left factory Twix and I prefer the ones they make in the right factory. Well, you got another shot at that. No, I'm not going to go through that again. What a nightmare. And who are you playing for, David? This is Anaconda.

So I guess Anna. One of the greatest films of all time. It really is good when John Voight gets eaten by the anaconda and the anaconda kind of spits him up and John Voight winks at the camera. Pretty amazing. Do any of you gentlemen want to throw a donut into the audience?

Now, the trick here is to hit hands with donuts and not floors, because we don't want to make a mess in this beautiful theater. Alright, I'm going to do this. There you go. Just chuck them out there. This guy with a big donut wants a donut. None of his

hands are free though, so you can hit him right in the face. Oh, shit. Oh! Give him a shot. Give him a shot, dude. All right, ready? That was a wild throw. Oh!

Now everybody's just chucking him at Donut Guy. Oh, more donuts coming in. Thanks. Yes! Yes! Oh, man. I want that one. Too deep! They thought I was a fool, but I wasn't a fool. This one's a throwing star.

Oh my goodness. So much fun to listen to. People having donuts thrown at them. We still got a lot more, but let's take a break from that. Let's get back to the board. Did anybody need a towel? I brought my towel thing downstairs. They were a pile of towels, and we were all like,

why is there a pile of towels? And I went, there's a reason I'm bringing one. And look at us. Variety Playhouse, ladies and gentlemen. They know what's up. You should put that towel in the prize bag. Also, hey, give it up for Variety and this renovation they did, huh?

Gorgeous, gorgeous. It's a super sweet venue, and I'm thrilled to be back here for the second time. And who else up here ordered a drink? Did I just get two of the same thing maybe? I think that's what happened. I think these are both the same thing. One's smaller than the other so I'm going to start with the big one.

But, you know, let's not neglect the little ones, you guys. It's an important lesson. Holy shit, we're so far behind at this point I hope you guys don't have jobs That's how long we're going to keep you here But I've devised some games And I'd like to start with a new game If that's alright with everybody

Here's what's going to happen, gentlemen. This game, I saw Taylor Swift on Friday night here at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium over there on Ted Turner Road. And so I'd like to play a new game called Swift Justice. Yeah. I'm going to describe the plot of a movie as described by IMDB. I'm going to read their description. And the first one to guess the title of the movie, which is also the title of an unrelated Taylor Swift song. also the title of an unrelated Taylor Swift song will be the winner.

So you get a leg up if you know Taylor Swift songs. I don't think any of you have a teenage girl. Or grown women. There was a lot of grown women A lot of women of all Some men Pretty short lines for the men's room I gotta say though

It was in and out And there was even some girls in there Does everybody get the premise? Do we buzz in? No just guess when you think you know it. Okay, okay. First person to say it. Shake it off.

The full correct title. That is literally the only Taylor Swift title I know. I know, me too. It's the only one I know. Listen, Chief, there's no movie called Shake It Off. God damn it. Here we go. And no audience guesses, please.

When his peaceful life is threatened by a high-tech assassin... The Hobbit. What? I don't know. The what? The Hobbit. The Hobbit? I never saw it.

That's not even the full title. I mean, was it The Desolation of Smaug? It was the one they did in, like, 7D or whatever. They did it too many frame rates, and it looked like an old Doctor Who episode. When his peaceful life is threatened by a high-tech assassin, former black ops agent Frank Moses

reassembles his old team. Expendables. In a last ditch effort to survive. Under siege two. And uncover his assailants when his peaceful life is threatened. Welcome to New York. By a high tech assassin. Former black ops agent Frank Moses

reassembles his old team. My ex-boyfriend's an asshole. In a last-ditch effort to survive and uncover his assailants. Directed by Robert Schwentke. I fucked Loki. Followed by a sequel and starring Bruce Willis.

Die Hard. Helen Mirren. Morgan Freeman. Who said Red? David Harbour wins that game. Is Red a Taylor Swift song? Yep. That would be a really fucked up game

if Red wasn't the name of a Taylor Swift song. I think the song was about turning 13 or something. Are you there, God? It's me, Taylor. Look what you made me do. That's the new... Urkel used to say, did I do that? And then the new version of that is, look what you made me do.

You made me break that shit. How many points... Do I get a point for that or what? You just get a, you know, clap on the back. Just a hearty good job. But you get to go first in our next game. So you didn't win much, really.

But some bragging rights, because you did a good job. I described the whole movie and several of the famous people who are in it. And you were like, oh, I know what that is. Let's play ABC Deez Nuts. ABCs, spelling, that's what we're going to be doing. All you got to know is your ABCs. If you know how to spell, you've got a great chance in this game. I'm going to give us a title, or give you guys a title. And David, you'll go first, then we'll go to Lucky and Justin and Joe.

And, um... We're gonna... I'll tell you a letter that's in this phrase or title and then you will name any movie that begins with that letter and if you match what I've written down ahead of time you win but if you just succeed in naming a movie that begins with that letter

which is strangely harder than it sounds sounds terrifying people really lock up a lot and it's super fun to watch. Especially if you're not... This is my prize? I get to go first? You get to go first, yeah.

For doing well. I haven't really thought that through. Going first isn't necessarily a good thing. Yeah, you don't really have much of an advantage going first, but I should also mention that a theme will emerge, potentially. A very loose theme will emerge. So we're going to spell Stranger Things in honor of one of my guests. Will something still emerge, or did you just give it away?

Oh, you'll see. So the first letter in Stranger Things is S. So, David, all you have to do is name any movie that begins with the letter S, and you remain in the running to win this game. Some Like It Hot. That's a great one. Amazing movie.

I went with Stand By Me. Yeah. So the next letter is T for Lucky. Terminator 2. Still Terminating. People love to hear the correct full title. So you can switch to another T if you don't know it. Terminator 1.

Terminator. The Terminator, but it still works. Yeah, you're still killing it. All right. I went with the Karate Kid. Oh. Yeah, yeah. So the next one is the letter R for Justin.

Red 2. Oh. I mean, it could have been red 1. It could have been red. That would have been interesting for me to slip that in there. But no, I went with Race to Witch Mountain. Yeah. So A is your letter, Joe.

ATL. That's a TV program. Oh, wait. That's Joe. ATL. That's a TV program. Oh, wait. That's Atlanta. ATL is the movie. Okay, okay, okay. Relax, everybody. Don't start smashing windows.

I went with aliens. Aliens. It's very similar. Yep. N is the next letter for Okay. Aliens. It's very similar. Yep. N is the next letter for David. National treasure. Ooh. With Nicolas Cage.

Oh, so close. I went national treasure two. I'm kidding. I'm kidding. Oh. I said not of this earth. G is the next letter for lucky. G-Lee.

The Ben Affleck, Jennifer Lopez romance film. Yeah, I mean, it was right there on your tongue. G-Lee. But I went with G-Oastbusters. Oh. I mean, who are you going to call? E is the next letter, Justin. Ernest, scared stupid.

All right. Wouldn't that be hilarious if I had picked Ernest goes to jail, Ernest saves Christmas, Ernest has a public boner? That was the unmade Ernest movie. I went with E.T. the Extraterrestrial and his adventures on Earth.

R is the next letter for Joe. You on Joe? I'm gonna go with Robocop. Oh, shit. But the most, the remake. Okay, doesn't matter. It's neither Robocop. It's no Robocops. It was the most, the remake. Okay, doesn't matter. It's neither Robo, it's no RoboCops. It was right there for the taking.

It's the sequel, or reboot, I forget which one, of Race to Witch Mountain. Return from Witch Mountain. Yeah, they race to it, but then they're like, oh, we better get back. Lucky 8's fun fact My first crush was Kim Richards from

Escape to Witch Mountain I had a little 5 year old heart boner for her I didn't know what a real boner was I was only 5 We're back over to David And the letter is T. Terminator Genesis.

Okay. I went with They Live. Classic John Carpenter. H is your letter, Lucky. Howard the Duck. Oh, my goodness. I almost wrote Howard the Duck today. Almost isn't good enough.

I almost did, but I'm trying to stick to, you know, let's just say it, like aliens and monsters and ghosts. But he's an alien. He's from another world. Duck world. He is from another world, but he's still a duck. He and Leah Thompson do a concert together. There's fucking duck nipples in that movie.

How did you not write it down? They nurse. Somehow they nurse their young. They're ducks. Dude, I'm hearing everything you're saying, but when you hear the answer that I have instead, you're going to be like, oh, that fits the theme better. I mean, you're right about Howard being from another planet,

but I went with Hanger 18. I've never even heard of that movie. Oh, yeah? Well, check out Hangers 1 through 17. Get back to me. Justin, the next letter is I. Let's do I, robot. Let's do it!

I don't think so. I went with Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. The best Indiana Jones movie. Yeah, I will fight you with mostly compliments. No fisticuffs. I love Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Shia LaBeouf is misunderstood. I mean, why did he have a tooth removed for that movie Fury?

He had a tooth pulled for that movie Fury? He had a tooth pulled out of his head that's not going to grow back. So he's like, oh, that's what my character would have. Well, now the rest of your characters are going to have a fucking fake tooth. I'm mad at him because he wrestled a little girl in a cage. I don't think that's right. N is the next letter. Who's on N?

Whose turn is it, Joe? A night at the museum. That's A, night at the museum. But so close. I went with night of the creepeps. Okay. Yeah, yeah. G is the next letter for David. Grifters. Oh.

Yeah, right? That's a good one. John Cusack. It's called The Grifters. It's The Grifters. Is it really? I want to change my answer, though. Okay, change it. Garfield. Oh. The movie.

Do you know the... Do you know the subtitle? Got a bunch of Garfield fans out here, yeah! Do you know the title after Garfield 2, after the call-out? I do. No. What is it? Tale of Two Kitties.

Tale of Two Kitties. after the call? I do. No. What is it? Tale of Two Kitties. Tale of Two Kitties. Do you know that Bill Murray did those movies

because he thought the Coen brothers were involved? The director's name, his last name is Coen but with an H and he thought it's like Joel Coen

or something like that and so he's like, oh yeah, the Coen brothers are doing Garfield movie? That's weird. It wasn't the Coen brothers. Garfield 3 is called Garfield 3 colon.

Huckleberry lasagna. All right, so I went with, oh, yeah, you went with Garfield. So I went with Gremlins. Gremlins. Yeah with Gremlins. Gremlins. Yeah, Gremlins. And then finally, S is the next letter for Lucky. I'm going to go with the original 1977 as released Star Wars. You know what, dude?

I am going to give it to you because you're so close. Oh, shit. Did you go Empire Strikes Back? I did. That's what I was going to give it to you because you're so close. Oh, shit. Did you go Empire Strikes Back? I did. That's what I was going to say. That's what I was going to say. But then I was like, too many people just call it the Empire Strikes Back. I don't know when they might have started tagging everything Star Wars.

But isn't that E? I mean, is it Star Wars Empire Strikes Back? What's the deal? Isn't that E? Anyway. Star Wars? What's the deal? Isn't that E? Thank you It took me that long to figure it out That game was built around the fact That there's a lot of

References to other movies Visually and spoken In the series Stranger Things So many of those answers were movies that have been paid homage in that TV show. Of course

Ghostbusters. I was just telling somebody that the second season when they were all in the Ghostbusters outfit I could not have been happier. It made me so happy. Because it wasn't women. I mean that is such a good joke, I had to say it. It's just too good of a joke, you guys.

Don't quote me, I don't mean it. Can't believe I said that in front of a police chief. And a doctor. And a man in his underwear. Let's play one more game. You guys want to play one more game? Oh, yeah. All right, we're calling Lucky the winner of that one

because that was an amazing poll. And so he's going to go first in this game. Then we're going to go to David. Then me, Joe, Justin, because we're playing Last Man Stanton. It's a simple game that gets difficult quickly, sometimes immediately. I'm going to get the name of an actor or actress from a predetermined audience member in the crowd

and then the five of us, because I like to play along, I don't know who the name is going to get the name of an actor or actress from a predetermined audience member in the crowd, and then the five of us, because I like to play along, I don't know who the name is going to be, the five of us will take turns naming movies that that person has been in, and if you can't think of one, you're out, but each of you have one lifeline. You can go to the person whose name tag you chose one time for help with a title you don't know.

You could describe the movie to them, or you could just say, what do you have? I'd get an answer from them, but just one time. And I've written them down, so I should look at that. It's a great system. Where's Willie1459? Willie, up close. Right there.

Paid the extra money. I see Willie right there. Thank you for being in such a sweet seat. What do you do for a living, Willie? I'm a specialist at Lockheed Martin. You're a specialist at Lockheed Martin. Are you sure you're not in communications? Because I was riveted to that entire job description.

And your name's Willie? My name's Josh. My last name's Williams. They call me Willie. Oh, they call you Williams because your last name's Willie. Okay, great. Great. And what's your suggestion, please, for the actor or actress?

Mel Gibson. Mel Gibson. Mel Gibson. We've already got a woman in the crowd who apparently dislikes racism. That's weird. Didn't expect that in the South, but that's cool.

Let me look at the panel. You guys comfortable with Mel Gibson? Yeah, sure. Or would you like an additional name from which we could say movies from either Mel Gibson or another person? Do we get to hear the other person first and then decide?

Well, you'll hear it, and then you can just disregard it if you prefer to say Mel Gibson movies. Have you been in a Mel Gibson movie? No, no, no, no, sir. It's not an interrogation. Hey, why have you worked with Mel Gibson?

What's that about? Have you worked with anybody that turned out to be terrible? I did a play reading with Kevin Spacey. There you go. And did he harass you? Three days in New York. That was it? I mean, you never saw him again?

David is nowhere near young enough to be Kevin Spacey's type. Oh, lucky. I'm just saying. It was 15 years ago. Oh, well. You were right in the zone. He was like, hello, big boy. Did you know that I invented the name Kaiser Soze? Such a good line.

It was just Max Herbert before. And I said, this should be more mysterious. My Kevin Spacey imitation is fucking off the chains right now. I don't know what that expression means means or if it's even an expression. I added chains, I think. Phil Gibson. This show's gonna go long. I want to take a second to say

that I've seen David Harbour on stage on Broadway twice in Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf and Glen Gary Glen Ross in which you were in that with Bobby Canna, and Glenn Gary, Glenn Ross. In which you were in that with Bobby Cannavale. I was, I was. And he's in town. Why don't the two of you get together

and play pong or something? I mean, I can get in touch for the next podcast if you want. Oh my goodness. You want? He'd be so much better than... He'd be good. We'll get that girl from Archer and Bobby. It'll be a great show. and he'd be good. We'll get that girl from Archer and Bobby.

It'll be a great show. Charge an extra ten bucks a ticket. It's terrific. Yeah, and these guys will be back. I love it. Let's get a second name because some people are like, not that into Mel Gibson.

I don't blame them. Where is Shea is dead? Hey buddy. He looks alive. What's your actual name? Shea? And what's your

actual, are you living or dead? Why do you call... I don't even know why I'm asking. So, Shay is dead. What's your suggestion for the other name in addition to Mel Gibson? Kevin Spacey. What is wrong with you?

Let's just go there. Let's just go there. Let's just make it all about... We can have Harvey Weinstein-produced films as well, right? Where are your Southern manners? Dead, that's where they are. Just like Taylor Swift's other personality. Did you guys know in the Taylor Swift concert,

when it gets to the part where she's on the phone and she goes, oh, Taylor's not here, the old Taylor's not here right now, oh, why? Because she's dead. At the concert, Tiffany Haddish says it, and it's hilarious. Because she's dead! All right, so... Shout-out to a person who will never listen to this.

And by that I mean Taylor and Tiffany. Okay, so we're going with two names. Mel Gibson or Kevin Spacey. Two of the greatest besmirched, but at least Mel Gibson seems like he's back. We'll see what happens with Spacey. But yeah, Mel has returned. Hey, wait a second. On stage on Broadway, you played the Kevin Spacey role.

I did, yeah. In Glengarry, yeah, I played Williamson. You don't need to make any further comment. Go to lunch. Will you go to lunch? Will you go to lunch? Will you go to lunch? I appreciate the pity clap. It's not that good of an impression, but thank you.

Yeah, but then you have to have Bobby Cannavale saying, Oh my God, he's so handsome. You see word. Right? Doesn't he call you the C word? Yeah, yeah. Mamet, all of his plays are littered with the C word. Right? Doesn't he call you the C word? Yeah, yeah. Mamet, all of his plays are littered with the C word. Mamet was huge on that one. That one really had the one.

They had that Ricky Roma just gets to say that one, and it really lands. Great story, Doug. Let's play this freaking game. Always be playing. Also, you got to tell people all the time, right, that the Alec Baldwin part was created just for the movie. I know, it's the best part of the whole show,

and it's not in the play. Yeah, you got to give them that warning. They should have signs outside. The Alec Baldwin scene is not in the play. Nor is Alec Baldwin. All right, so we've got Mel Gibson and Kevin Space. Mm-hmm. I, you know, I'm sad to say I know most of the movies of both of them, but I shouldn't be sad about it.

Lots of other people worked on those movies. You know what I mean? Jodie Foster. All right, so... Lucky, start us off. Name a movie that's got Mel Gibson or Jodie Foster, and you have one second. Time is up.

Superman Returns. Kevin Spacey is my favorite. Yes, of course. Where he was like, I could play that part as good as Gene Hackman. He could not was the verdict. Nope, it was just an impression. David?

Glenn Gary, Glenn Ross. You son of a bitch. You win the steak knives. I'm going to go with... I'm going to knock out some ones that you guys might not think of some obscure shit Kevin Spacey one of his first movie roles

was in a film called Rocket Gibraltar starring Burt Lancaster and a yet to pop Home Alone kid Macaulay Culkin Really? Burt Lancaster? Was it like his last film or something? a yet-to-pop Home Alone kid, Macaulay Culkin.

Really? Burt Lancaster? Was it like his last film or something? It was up there. Yeah, he was an ancient at that point. Yeah, and in it, he gets a Viking funeral.

Spoiler! I bet you no one could even name the movie I just named because the title is so weird. Yeah, nice try, everybody. Joe?

Baby Driver. Shot right here in the ATL. Yeah. That's a great one. I wish they could, you know, just erase him from... I watched it after I found out the fact, so... Yeah.

Not the same. David, would you volunteer to just play Kevin Spacey's part in Baby Driver to just reshoot all of his angles? Christopher Plummer that shit? Yeah. I think he'd be good.

Justin? What's the one? American Beauty. What's the one where he's jerking off in the shower? Married to Annette Bening? Quotes around married? Lucky?

The beaver. Okay, you know what, sir? I've put up with a lot. Al Gibson finds a beaver puppet on the ground. You know what, though? This is sad to say this, but that movie's not bad. Jodie Foster directed it, right? Yeah.

It's not bad. It's just fucking weird that he has a beaver puppet and it talks like Michael Caine. What are you doing? I do not approve of what you're doing Master Batman.

My Michael Caine is not good. David. I wonder if you know this one. Consenting adults. Ooh. A nice 80s gem with Kevin Spacey with a blonde wig. All right. Well, I'm going to take your Kevin Spacey with a blonde wig

and raise you sexually harassing Kevin Spacey in Working Girl. Oh, yeah. Joe? Lethal Weapon. Oh, wow. What have we been doing? Everyone's showing off, and there's just such obviousness right there.

Justin? Motherfucking signs. Signs? Okay. Lucky? L.A. Confidential. Okay. Davis?

Swimming with sharks. Uh-huh. Oh, you guys, you know what I just thought of? Lethal Weapon 2. Oh, yeah, okay. Damn it! I didn't realize they made another one. Joe?

Mad Max. I'm saving one. Come on. Or two. Mad Max is the first one that's called that. Justin? What Women want. Yeah.

Consent. Oh my god. Somebody should take a clip from that movie where women are walking by Oh, my God. That'd be so... Somebody should do, like, take a clip from that movie where women are walking by and saying all those stupid things they wrote for women to be thinking about.

And just every single one of them is like, I need consent. I need consent. I need consent. Okay. I think that'd be easy to do, too, because you just drop out there. Anyway. Who said that? What women want? Justin? Okay, so we're on Lucky.

Chicken Run, motherfucker. That's not the chicken run is the name of it. Yeah, that's enough. There's no R-rated cut. Aardman animation? Check out Chicken Run, motherfucker. It's like Chicken Run, but they run like motherfuckers. David? K-Pax. Oh, you son of a bitch.

Going right after his Oscar grab. Such an Oscar grab. He was really going for it. He was also really trying to get one for the shipping news. Remember that shit? No one

remembers that. They're like, he worked it out with the chiefs. He was going to pretend to know what that movie was. I know what that movie is, sir. I watch a lot of boring movies. It's like in Newfoundland or something. Annie Perlue

novel. Yeah. They're up somewhere with a lot of snow and they're tying knots. There's a lot about knots. He works for the local papers. I don't remember. Joe?

Let's go with The Patriot. Yeah! That's a good poll. Yeah. Draco Malfoy's in that. Justin? Seven. What?

Yeah. Not familiar. You didn't see one through six. No, I know the movie S-E-7-E-N. Seseven. That's what I, seseven. Like, that never made any sense to me that they could just stick a 7 in for a V

on the posters. Lucky? The Road Warrior. Yes, the sequel to Mad Max. Very good. David? Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome. The sequel to Road Warrior. Very good. Raggedy Mountain.

I'm going to go with Mel Gibson is bald in this one. Oh. And it's called The Singing Detective. Four people saw that one.

With Robert Downey Jr. It was based on a BBC series called The Singing Detective that starred Bob Hoskins. Too much information. David. Or is it Joe's turn? Sorry, David. Braveheart.

Oh, right. Yes. Pay it forward. Yes. Pay it forward. Yes. Oh, that was another Oscar grab. Fiesta. Lethal Weapon 3.

Yeah, wait a second. Why did I leave that on the table? Can't believe that happened. That's about all I got left. David. Maverick. Yes's about all I got left. David? Maverick. Yes. Yeah, Maverick fans. I mean, why even bother saying Lethal Weapon 4?

Joe? The Usual Suspects. Yes. Yes. That is weird that we hadn't gotten to that one yet. Justin, horrible bosses. Uh-huh.

Kind of a layup for really set you up nicely there, Lucky. Let me go with the Santa Claus 3. Oh, okay. I think that there's more after the colon, like double indemnity or something.

Grabbing that pole. Okay, well, it's your first time on the show, so I'm going to accept that. Thank you. Kevin Spacey, very small part. Plus, I'm dying for it to be my turn. David? Bird on a Wire. Oh, yes. Oh, shit, I forgot why I was dying for it to be my turn.

I thought I had a really good one. All of those of you who are underage might not know this one, but he was in a movie called 21. Kevin Spacey. Go, Joe. This is exciting. We've gone a long time.

Starsky and Hutch. Who's in that? I don't know. Do you want to go to your lifeline? Oh, yeah. Laura, Laura. Laura. Help him out.

Anything but Starsky and Hutch Huh? Ransom, thank you so much Thank you Lifeline Give me back my child Or whatever he says, my son What does he say? He gets really intense about wanting his son back

It's so weird Little did we know Justin Payback Yes little did we know Justin payback yes very good pay it forward pay it back

right that's all that was just had to make good for paying forward lucky I need my lifeline oh shit what do you got lifeline I need

What's that God damn Marky Mark Will Ferrell thing That they just did The sequel to That shot here God damn

Mel Gibson's in it Something about daddies Or Step daddies In the middle there This isn't open To the whole crowd We all know the answer

Yeah it's right in the middle Where's the lifeline at We were soldiers Oh he's going with we were soldiers. What did he say? We were soldiers. I'm sure. We'll go

with that one. Okay. We were soldiers. Okay, you can put the lights back down. Thank you. David? It just came to me. Daddy's home? Is that what it's called? Wait. came to me. Daddy's Home? Is that what it's called? Wait.

Wait a minute. That's not the name? Oh, shit. Do you need your lifeline? Yeah, I guess I do. Where's your lifeline at? Anna. Anna? Daddy's Home 2.

It says Daddy's Home 2. You're saying that's the name of the movie, Daddy's Home 2? Yeah. I'm going to go with Daddy's Home 2. Uh-huh. Yeah, he was in the sequel, not the original.'s Home 2. I'm going to go with Daddy's Home 2. Yeah, he was in the sequel, not the original. You know who's been in town

and Lucky did a show with him last night? Dave Foley. The great Dave Foley was here in town. He would have loved to be on my podcast and I would have loved to have him on, but he flew out today. But anyway, he's in a movie called A Bug's Life. Oh, shit, right?

Kevin Spacey's the bad guy in that. That's a remake of Seven Samurai. It's so weird. It's true. That's what that movie is. He's like an evil grasshopper. Yeah. And his name is Hopper.

Holy shit. His name in that movie is Sheriff Hopper. Yeah. And his name is Hopper. Holy shit! His name in that movie is Sheriff Hopper. We just opened a portal. Oh, I don't care what happens anymore. This has been such a good round of this.

So who just gave the last correct answer? You did I did? Joe, what do you got? You out of answers? Expendables What? Oh yeah, he's in that

No, Gibson's the bad guy, right? Is it the Expendables though? Not the first one Not the first one, he's not Oh, is he in the Expendables 3 Expendables 2 3, probably I was gonna say that But you guys interrupted me Settle down out there first one. Not the first one. He's not. Oh, is he in the Expendables 3? 3 probably.

I was going to say that, but you guys interrupted me. Settle down out there. You're not the corrections department. All right, Justin. Expendables 3.

Horrible Bosses 2. Yeah. Who did that one? That one got thrown out there. Kevin Spacey. Oh, they're all doing sequels.

Yeah, he's in both. Okay, Lucky. Did somebody say Nine Lives yet? Nuh-uh. The Kevin Spacey cat movie? Yeah. Nine Lives, good job.

David? All the money in the world, the studio cut. You know what? I'm going to accept that. Yes! You know, also, when Christopher Plummer came in, they hired a man who was the right age. Spacey had to wear old age makeup

and that always looked stupid. Well, the studio really wanted Spacey. They didn't want... Ridley Scott's first choice was Christopher Plummer and then the studio really wanted Spacey. They didn't want... Ridley Scott's first choice was Christopher Plummer, and then the studio forced Gavin Spacey. Yeah, and Plummer's won an Oscar more recently. He's also an extremely pleasant person, I've heard. Much better reasons to hire him.

But I'm glad he did it. I'm glad he got the Oscar nomination. But we've got to finish this game. And I am stalling until I think of, holy shit, I've got it. Machete. Machete. Yeah, start thinking hard about sequels, boys. Machete 2.

No! Justin. Lethal Weapon Forever After. No, did you use your lifeline? No, it's Lethal weapon forever after. No, did you use your lifeline? No, it's lethal weapon four. I said four already. Lifeline, what up, Chad? JFK.

No, don't do that to him. Where's your lifeline at? It was me. It was you? And you said JFK? All right. All right. Well, I'm not going to go with that. Oh, no. Neither of them are in JFK.

Okay. Good. Wait. You're still thinking? Because you rejected JFK. Yeah. Okay. So I'm not stalling, if that's what you thought. Feels like that's what this is. I know. That's what's what this is. I know.

That's what's amazing about it. The Man Without a Face. Damn you. I don't know if it counts, but Apocalypto. It sure does count. He directed that, motherfucker. That's an intense movie. Oh, goddamn. It's like edge of He directed that, motherfucker. All right, all right, all right. That's an intense movie. Oh, goddamn.

It's like edge of your seat the entire time. Yeah, it's like everyone in the movie could get a paper cut at any time. It's that intense. Wait, if he just directs it, we can do it too? Yes. Oh, Hacksaw Ridge. Yeah, and of course, and The Last Temptation of Christ. What did I just say wrong?

Oh, that was Scorsese's. The correct answer is, who's next? Is it back to Lucky? Justin's out. I said it wrong. That's what I'm saying. So now Lucky. Oh, it's me? Yeah. Oh, wait. Oh, yeah, you did, Justin.

You did pull that one out. That's true. So it's the Passion of the Christ. Yes. All right. Passion of the Christ. Yes. All right. Passion of the Christ 2, still passionin'. So good. It's so good, you guys. I wish I could keep you in just for creativity.

So funny. But you used your lifeline, so I must say that you're out I'll take it David Conspiracy theory Yes Very good Justin

It's just down to you and the chief Sophie's Choice It was the second one and the Chief? Sophie's Choice. It was the second one. Which one do you think was in Sophie's Choice? She only had one boy. No, I meant picking which film I'm going to close on. It's a real Sophie's Choice. Oh, you're in a real Sophie's Choice right now?

Between two guesses? Yep. Okay, which one are you going to say? American Beauty 2? You got nothing? No, I don't think so. I'm sorry for stalling and not riffing a funny answer at the end of it yet. But we'll go with what women want even more.

With what? The beaver 2. Still beavering. Just to rub it in, in David do you have one more I don't know if it qualifies as a film but if you stay at the Mandarin Hotel in Atlanta on a loop on the actual hotel channel is Kevin Spacey giving a monologue
