But be sure to get your 2014 Wolf of Wall Street, etc. shirts at dougloveshirts.com. I went through a whole year of it just so that we could make a shirt at the end. That's not the initial intent, but that's what ended up happening. Spokane, Washington.

It's one of those prize bags that start off like yeah, it's not going to be great and then wow it really turned a corner. It starts of course with an apologies to put your hands together t-shirt because that you can also get at Dougloveshirts.com

because I have a feeling I'm going to be saying that again tonight. We'll see. I don't know but I'm pretty sure I'm going to say it. I threw this in the bag because I just didn't know how good of a bag it was going to be. I wanted something awesome in the bag, so I put in a Comics Unleashed with Byron Allen mug. I had to go on that show to get this mug, you guys. So, yeah, that's like a battle scar or something right there. I had a good time, though. They re-ran it recently.

I think I was pretty high when I was on it. Just speculating. Oh, shit. Something fell out. Douglas Movies t-shirt. We got a lighter from Chameleon Glass. And then the rest of the stuff, we got to go through with the gentlemen that brought all this stuff.

I've been trying to make this happen, this episode. I've been trying to make this happen, this episode. I've been trying to make it happen since July. But it is never too late for a Guardians of the Galaxy episode of Doug Loves Movies. Please give it up for James Gunn, Sean Gunn, and Michael Rooker. Let's introduce them individually starting on the far end there, the co-writer and singular director of Guardians of the Galaxy, James Gunn, everybody. James Gunn. This is a real leave their mics on the table crowd. I love it. You guys are just like, I'll the table crowd. I love it.

You guys are just like, I'll pick it up when I need it. I'm not so needy comedian. I was just wondering, why does mine have more bumps on it than theirs? Yours has more bumps? That's Michael Rooker, everybody. That's the one you shoved up your ass the last time you were on this show, Rooker. Your mom and dad's in the audience. Stop it, James.

That is true. My mom and dad are right there, Doug. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. I hope there's a lot of pot talk tonight, is what I'm saying. I'm pretty sure they're also parents of... Sean Gunn is here, everybody.

Hi, everybody. Hi, everybody. That's awesome. You got right back on the program. Good man. Oh, yeah, that's everybody. Hi, everybody. That's awesome. You got right back on the program. Good man. Oh, yeah. That's what I'm here for. And, you know, we'll try to get you a better microphone next time. Remember that time we were on? Two and a half years from now. We were on here with Rooker

and we did the Leonard Malton game with Michael Rooker movies and Rooker movies and Rooker couldn't get a single answer right. Yeah. That's true. It was tricky. I don't remember those things. I'm trying to simplify it for this appearance tonight. We'll see how it goes.

Michael, what's your favorite color? Wrong. The prize bag goes to... But Sean Gunn is... he plays michael rooker or yondu's uh sidekick henchman character in the uh in guardians of the galaxy and also was the on set guy acting like uh rocket the raccoon correct rocketaccoon. So you were like on your knees pretending to be him? Yeah, for a lot of it I was on my knees. With like Bradley Cooper

on a cell phone? That's why he's in the second one. Saying the shit? But yeah, that's an interesting... Aren't there scenes where you and Rocket,

where your character and Rocket are both in the scene? There's a couple of moments where we're both there. And yeah, on those days, I really was doing double duty. I would be in my wardrobe as Kraglin in the jumpsuit, the Scarlet Ravager jumpsuit. And then I would go and be Rocket and try to crouch down and do it like that. What did you wear when you were

Rocket? Usually I wore a delightful green leotard. It was really, I'm not trying to brag, but it was really sexy. It looked really good. It was like all the way up on your head too. Yeah. Like the Oompa Loompas in the TV section. Yeah, it was also

had a, I forget what they call it. The hood thing. It was so tight you could make out the folds in his anus. Those sexy folds in my anus. Mom, Dad, how's it going so far? I'm going to just jump around tonight because I'm so full of Guardians of the Galaxy thoughts

that I've been having since July when I tried to put this together then. And I want to start with something I just thought of, which is... So Joss Whedon read your first draft and said, you know, this isn't James Gunn enough. Like, you should put more of yourself into it. That's true, yeah.

Yeah, and so then you did it again, and that's when you wrote the line about the Jackson Pollock painting. No. That's what I'm guessing. That was already in the script? No, no, no, no. I made up that line on set. Okay, no. I made up that line on set. Okay, good. So that was actually, the first half of that line is an improv by Chris, where Chris says, you know, he looks around the room and says,

you know, you should see what it looked like in here if we had a black light. And then I thought of the Jackson Pollock line, and I ran up and whispered in Chris' ear and then say, it looks like a Jackson Pollock painting. And so that was just a combination of improv of the both of us, which was a fair amount of stuff that Chris and I do is like that. And Sean ad-libbed a very funny line as Rocket that got in the movie. Yeah.

On set, he's the one that said, what did you just do? Rooker, you're such a mixer. He knocked my silly little bottle water lid on the floor. Like, yeah, I don't need this here. All right, like I said, I'm going to jump around a lot. Can we get back to funny things that I've said in the past? It's a short list. Oh, that's why.

What did you ad-lib in the movie that got in? Believe me, he isn't allowed to ad-lib on set. Wait, so in the script it says But this is true. We have all that stuff on set and that's me going I'm like,

Rooker, say, Ubu-yubu-yubu-yubu-yubu. And then Rooker is trying to translate whatever I say. Somebody is like, so disrespectful. So disrespectful when another person

is talking. Wow, you must feel like you're directing an Every Which Way But Loose movie. Yeah, yeah, yeah. With him onose movie. Yeah, yeah, yeah. With him on the set. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Clyde.

He's my own personal Clyde. What I appreciate about Michael Rooker is he's played some of the scariest characters in screen history. But when he goes out as himself, he puts on a jaunty hat that says, I'm a nice guy. That is not like a racist hat. That's not like a racist hat. That's not like a fucking murderer hat. I've never seen a murderer in that hat. Is that nice? This is a nice hat.

I like it. But when you're Michael Rooker, you're a hat guy. I like hats, yeah. And then in movies, you're a hat guy only depending on if a scene needs it. Depends on what hat I'm wearing. In Guardians, you just have what looks like a block of gold just on the tape to the top of your head that's what it looks like to me it looks like you have a gold bar just on top of your head I was like

that's for emergencies that's his like it's that's his mad money if he wants to go to the movies yeah in that time probably in that galaxy the movies are probably pricey do they even have movie theaters? Took about an hour to put on. Like, has your character, has Yondu ever gone to the movies? Why? Do you think that's part of his experience? And do you think he'd fuck with the movie and make his little thing go...

Fly all over the screen like somebody would do with a laser? I think... I always thought Yondu really enjoyed Earthlings and all the stuff they do. The trappings of Earthlings. You know, going to the movies, you know, sex.

Stuff like that. Sex. So Sean brought for the prize bag a picture of him uh himself holding a cat that's it's very serious and don't everyone slide over that at once so that's what put this prize bag over the top but then also rooker got really creative and brought a... Because the apocalypse did happen in this area first, he brought the Georgia Hunting Seasons and Regulations Guide from when the apocalypse went down in 2012.

And then, of course, he signed it. So that's an upsetting piece of memorabilia from everybody's favorite racist walker killer. And then he also brought a cute little fun toy that he signed from Guardians of the Galaxy. It's a... What is it? It's Yondu.

Yondu is one of the characters. It's a Toys R Us exclusive. Guardians of the Galaxy, Yondu and Sakaar and Scum Trooper. Together in one box. Together in one box. It's a twofer toy. It's a twofer, yeah. Every year we have a white elephant party for Christmas at my house

where everyone has to bring a $30 gift. And every year Rooker brings something free of himself that he got either like a walking dead Bob Redd. I consider it to be more like $70, so I'm doing them a favor. And then Michael also brought a poster, a Guardians poster, and then, holy shit, you guys,

I did not know that this toy existed. And it's a bummer. Have you guys seen this? The Rocket Raccoon face mask with a brag on the back. Mouth opens. Eyebrows raise. Ears move.

And it's like move jaw to activate. And I sat there looking at it, moving my jaw for the longest time. But then, it's so hard to show everybody, but when you move his jaw, look what his eyebrows go up and his ears, like he does more emoting in this mask

than he does in... Although there's a few scenes where he does that, where he's like, It's interesting because he's like it's interesting because he's got the metal plate on his head which was from an early design that we never used in the movie but obviously

that's what the toy company had when they made the map yeah because all the shit was on his back when he was like when Star-Lord saw him with his shirt off he saw that weird shit

but yeah none on his head that is crazy so that's in the prize bag you guys let's all three of you should sign that for sure and uh whoever wins it is set for oh look at you with the bigger sharpie whoever wins it is set for halloween next year so that's kind of exciting just get down on your knees and put that mask on. By the way, that's not just a Guardians of the Galaxy poster.

Oh, what is it? That is, why don't you get it out. Can you get it out? Yeah, I can get it out. Unravel it. Oh, it's just a Yondu poster. It's Yondu, like there's no other characters in the film. Bully, bully, bully, bully, bully, bully.

That is a, that's a Yondu poster looking very macho and cool. Yeah, holy shit. It's like somebody went, hey, Yondu, pose with that orb. You finally got the orb, pose with it. He's like, I, hey, Yondu, pose with that orb. You finally got the orb. Pose with it. He's like, I'm going to put a fucking foot up on the thing like I'm thinking about the orb. If you look real close, I think the legs and the waist are from a different photo. Yeah, it does look. You look a little bit like you've been in a car wreck.

The bottom half of your body is a little broken. I never truly, I never posed like this. I pointed that out when we were doing the posters, but no one noticed. No one cares. No one cares about the Yondu poster. It's just a pose. That's why you're just doing that for Rooker to feel good.

That's for the shooting range. No, as I understand it, none of the other characters had a poster. That's not true. I think I've seen some of the others. I think they had some, but they never put them out. Oh, okay. But, spoiler alert, Yondu and his sidekick...

Kraglin. Yeah. You said it earlier. I should have been on it from that, but... Thanks for remembering that. Is it said out loud much in the movie? No. It says the writer.

No, it's not. I don't even think I ever call you a name. So, yeah. So, it's hard for me to remember. I do crackling, yeah. Yeah, yeah. So, that's another thing I love is that when we first see you on the screen early on in the movie, the conversation you have with Star-Lord is the exact same.

It's almost word for word the same conversation you have later in the movie when you're confronting each other. And it's great because the first time you say it, it's all kind of tossed off in a way that's hard to remember. So it's almost like a really great way of saying to everybody, well, let's remind you of their situation and how he will not let it go. He doesn't let it go. Yeah, that he keeps bringing it up. He thinks he's so great

that he didn't eat that kid. That he keeps bringing it up his entire life. So nice of me to not have you for dinner. I was such a good guy to you, and here's how you repay me. It's like any other parent. Don't you think?

If you're not in, buy 10! If you crash my car, here are the keys. My mom's laughing harder than anyone at that about not eating, about how funny it is to not eat your children. That's scary. That's because mom just wants to be nice to people. Yeah, thanks for not eating, Sean or James. She's a people pleaser, Brian.

She's trying to make Rooker feel good. Yeah. She likes me. Do you have a favorite between these two? Do you guys have a favorite? Who's your favorite? Who's your favorite? Who's your favorite son?

We're both the last two on the list, I think. How many total? He's my favorite oldest, and he's my favorite youngest. Oh, look at you. Favorite oldest and favorite youngest. What a diplomat. Five, five, what? He said how many total, and Dad said five.

There's six of us, Dad. No, there's five boys. Oh, okay. Five boys and one that, you know, if we were Chinese, might have been a different, played out differently. Let's, let's, we shouldn't talk to my parents too much, because some dark shit's going to come out.

Yeah, they're already writing one off. I grew up, my room, my bedroom was next to my parents' room and I had to listen to my parents have sex my whole growing up. That's sex. That's true. That's true. Let's go to the clip. We have a clip of that But seriously what we do have

I've been waiting until now to get back at them for that Holding on to that nugget Well I don't know how you're going to react to this request James But you Did the actual As I've been told actual, as I've been told, so far everything I've been told has been correct, you did the dancing for the

baby Groot tree that appears at the end of the film. Yeah, that's true. Yeah, you did the motion capture of the dancing. Well, motion reference. Motion reference. So could you do a little of that for us? Is this on film? Do it, man, do it. No, no. It's just for this audience.

Do it. Most people are going to be listening and wondering what the fuck is happening. Join in. Here we go. That'll be a great vine for somebody in the audience. That's amazing. Are we filming it? And then look at this shit over here.

Fuck. I meant I'm not filming it. It's already online, my friend. Yeah, I know. did you guys take still pictures or vining or videoing what were you doing combination oh shit

you're in all media with that little dance but that was awesome thank you for doing that do people still vine is that still a thing do people still do that I don't know

I do it on occasion. Sometimes I'll make a vine of the proceedings here, but it didn't dawn on me to vine you while you were dancing. But that was awesome. We should have had, Rooker should have played Drax and done the take where you have to stop. I thought about getting him to do that

but it wasn't until after I stood up. Too elaborate. Somebody brought this up online, why, what difference does it make if Drax saw a little Groot tree dancing? Is he trying to keep it a secret

that he's sentient or whatever? Because that turns Drax on and little Groot, baby Groot knows. No. Because, uh,

uh, he doesn't need that guy coming on to him. There was actually, he's a little branch. There was actually a scene that we cut from the movie where Big Groot was dancing to Living Thing by ELO.

And it wasn't such an elaborate dance. It was more he was just moving up and down like this. And Drax was dismissive and gave him this look like he's a loser when he did that. Like, yeah, dancing's not part of his life at all. There's no reason to dance ever. He's ludicrous to Drax. He's with Lithgow in the Footloose scenario. Yeah, yeah. There's no reason to dance ever. He's ludicrous to Drax. I don't think he understands. He's with Lithgow

in the Footloose scenario. Yeah, he is. He would. If Drax owned a town, if he was a mayor, the first law would be no dancing. But yeah, so at the end of the movie,

little baby Groot didn't want to get caught dancing because he would kill him. Also, it raises the... Right, because he did have a knife in his hand. It raises the adorableness factor a little bit, too, I think. Right, to get caught and then start up again.

Oh, no! Having a reason to stop and then keep going. Oh, mischievous. White tracks would be upset. I never really thought of it. I just think you would be irritated. But you're going to give these guys work again right away, right? Their characters are going to be in part two.

They'll be back in Guardians of the Galaxy 2. Yeah, and you're not going to pull this nonsense like they did on a recent TV series that I won't name where Rooker's character went away for far too long with no good explanation. Yeah. And when he came back, it was for not enough time.

I totally remember that. I told Rooker, I pitched the opening of Guardians of the Galaxy 2 to Rooker, which is going to be a close-up on Yondu's face. And we're slowly going to pull back and his head is going to be on a stake. I bet he

did not like that. Every time Rooker bothers me, I say, you know, I've got this great idea for the opening of Guardians 2. Or you could go the American Beauty route, and he could be dead at the beginning and narrate the whole thing. So he'd still get some work.

I did come to these guys at the end of the movie when we shot the last time we, well, that's the last time we see the two of them. We see them at the very end of the movie. But where they fly away, you know, as they're looking down on Peter Quill and talking about maybe he wasn't all that bad after all. And I came up to them in the morning, and I said, I have an idea.

I want you guys, right after you talk about that Peter Quill stuff, I want you to kiss and madly French kiss each other. You've been in love this whole time. And Rooker refused, and Sean said he would do it. Why would you do it? I'm a conservative. Oh, okay. Also, there would be an extremely good chance

it wouldn't get in the movie. I would imagine there would be people... Don't count on that shit. No, I know, but I'm just saying, if you're going to go for it, then also it doesn't get in the movie that would suck

I just wanted to see them make out it wasn't because of like yeah you probably just give that direction every day his tongue is really long

he's got a long tongue it's kind of grossed me out I'm a good kisser too as Doug knows what about Sean Gunn what about the

are you getting a lot of Gilmore Girls action attention because it's on Netflix now? Yes. It must be crazy, right? It kind of is, yeah. I've been recognized more. You kind of moved on from that,

and you're in the biggest hit movie in the universe, and then fucking Gilmore Girls. Back with Avengers. Hello. The Return of Kirk. Yeah, it's been crazy. Yeah, I love that. It's been crazy.

I dig it. I like it. I guess the show holds up. I loved it at the crazy. Yeah, I love that. It's been crazy. I dig it. I like it. I guess the show holds up. I loved it at the time. I haven't looked at it lately. I've never seen it, but I... That's when everybody talks really, really fast. Yeah, it's one of those.

That's the one. Yeah. I could have never done that show, dude. I couldn't. Wow. I don't think of you as talking fast on it. No, I would not talk fast. It was just Lorelei and her daughter.

We had to talk pretty fast, really. It was like faster, faster, faster. Back, back, back, back. Yeah, yeah. All right. Fair enough. So you got kind of a little vacation on Guardians. After all those years of fast talking,

you got to punch Dave Bautista in the arm. on Guardians. After all those years of fast talking. You got to punch Dave Bautista in the arm. That was fun. And then he gives you a look that it must have been genuinely terrifying when that happened. It was genuine, actually. He really didn't like it? Did you ad-lib that? No.

It's not terrifying. It's actually the opposite. It's hard to muster up terror because Dave is actually a sweetheart. He's kind of a... You didn't want to hurt him. A very...

He's a very kind, gentle soul. Oh, okay. And so, yeah, I had to... That was acting. I don't know, man. He's just so huge.

Just the fact that he would look at you like he was angry, even if it was acting, would be terrifying. Well, we did have a, he did protect you from that guy. Remember? At the wrap party. Oh, yeah. And Dave Bautista, there was a guy at the wrap party who was high on some type of drugs.

And he was grabbing, like, he grabbed a couple girls yeah and he grabbed one of uh zoe's uh doubles ass and sean got in his face but the guy was about a foot taller i mean he was like six foot seven or something and sean got in his face and they were about to get into a fight and uh i ran over there to see what was up and somebody told dave and uh and and the guy came up and got in dave's face and dave just took his hand i'm serious he has actual superpowers because he just took his hand and kind of went like this for those of you that are listening i'm just slowly pressing my hand forward and he just knocked him like this and the guy flew back about ten feet that is all and that's totally true.

And he was just astounded. And then he left. That's pretty awesome. I thought the story was going to end with him being very gentle. It was a gentle push. That was, yeah. He didn't kill the guy.

He gently killed that guy's ass. It was so sweet of him. It was awesome. He gently kicked his ass. He could have tossed him 20 feet if he'd have used two hands. But that's a great story. Very loving guy.

Sort of thing I'm looking for. I'm trying to get some dirt here. Is there anything you could say that's like a scoop for the part two? Like what it's going to be called? Guardians of the Galaxy 2. That's it? No colon? No subtitle?

No, we actually don't know what it's going to be called. We haven't figured it out. It's hard because Guardians of the Galaxy is a lot of words just by itself. Right. So how about Guardians of the Galaxy Age of... Just confuse the shit out of everybody. Just throw in one that's been used already. Just go Age of Ultron again or something.

Guardians of the Galaxy Rises. Dawn of the Guardians of the Galaxy. Yeah, those eight movies are going to have the longest titles after a while. But, okay, so that's not a scoop. You guys are the only, the three of you are the only people who know who Star-Lord's dad is. Correct? The only three people on Earth? That's false.

That's incorrect? You don't know? Yeah, because I don't know. And Kevin, what's the guy in charge of Marvel movies? What? Kevin Feige. Feige? Is that how you pronounce it?

Feige? Feige. Kevin Feige. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's why I didn't want to pronounce it wrong. You and him are the only ones that know? No, and Rooker knows. And Rooker knows.

He probably told me at some point. I'm not over it. Yeah, you guys are drunk or something. I did tell you. He didn't care. I told you. Your parents wouldn't care to know. Yeah, the two of them, Feige, and then maybe a couple of,

and now a couple more people know, because they know what the basic outline of the second film is, a couple of Marvel guys. So there's like three or four people that probably know who Star-Lord's dad is now. Do you want to know? Yes, very much. Very much would like to know. You have your honesty hat on.

You're wearing the truth cap. That's right. You ready? Yes, I'm ready. You know, I forgot. Rooker wanted a drink before we came out here and then I talked him into not having a drink

and I don't know if I'm happy or sad that reminds me what was it you wanted what was it you drink Jack and Coke with two limes

Jack and Coke somebody get him a Jack and Coke I bet you someone will go and do that right now what about me Jack and Coke

two limes what do you want I want the same thing Jack and Coke same thing for Sean he's my first mate but James and I are good right I'm good they're only going to have two hands

and so far nobody's gotten up maybe somebody's texting nobody's dying to be that person plus I don't even know the legalities there's a bar right next door so you have to buy them and run out with them and then they'd be like, our glasses! I could have had it done by now!

But we'll see what happens. Maybe you'll get a drink in time. We've got 15 of them here in a minute. All right. But I'm running a little behind the schedule here. You're slow. Your talk is slow tonight. Your talk is slow. Like we're a couple of Indians

in old timey. You know talk fast. You talk them slow. Me want peace pipe. This is the part of the show where I say, let the games begin. This is the part of the show where I say,

let the games begin! And people in the audience brought trinkets, name tags, posters. Some of them figured out you guys would be here. Good detective work. And I need each of you to just stand up and go pick a name tag of who you'd like to play for and bring it back to your seat. And while you do that, we'll be right back.

We're back. And who are you playing for, Michael? Real Cupcake. I'm playing for the Cupcake Girl. Georgetown Cupcake. My name's on the bag. It's a giant... Oh, her name's on the bag. Her name is Jocelyn. And did you put a shithead on the back?

Lovely Jocelyn. I'm playing for Jocelyn. It's in the bag. Oh, aren't you clever. It's okay. Don't worry about it. It's good. Keep it away from him. Is it a secret?

It kind of is, yeah. Is there another? But Georgetown Cupcake sounds delicious. It's sealed, so I can't see the cupcakes. But do you want to try to open it or do you want to leave it? Yeah, because those are yours to keep if you want, I guess, right? That's the idea.

I think they're going to be mad. Look at those things. Dude, those look amazing. Don't look. Don't look. They're not good looking. Hot damn, those are good looking cupcakes. Rooker wants them all to himself. Alright, we were just talking about v Vine, so now I have to make one because it reminded me that I should.

Who are you playing for, Sean? I'm playing for Paula and Joe, who are the Germans of the galaxy. I like it. All the Germans from the entire galaxy. And then, here, let me take that off your hands, because there's a thing on the back that I'll save for later. And I've got this Tim Riley. Is that your name?

No, that's the shit. That's what? Oh, no. You'll see later in the show, James, but the front part is Patrick Adams. Yeah, Patrick Patrick Adams, yeah. Alright.

Well done, you guys. That's who you're playing for, and I put together because as James mentioned earlier tonight, the Leonard Maltin game didn't work out so great for Michael Rooker because he was forced to remember his castmates in films that he did. Rooker's chances of winning this game are less than zero.

There's no possible way. Apologies to the cupcake lady. I think I was down to the wire, though. I think, yeah. It was between me and Sean. I think so, maybe. But Sean probably won. Sean won. I did win, I believe.

Sean did. He cheated. Sean won. And the category was Michael Rooker movies. But to determine who's going to go first in the game tonight, and a very big apologies to put your hands together, to determine who goes first,

it's a thing we like to do on the show where, for whatever reason, Mark Wahlberg loves this show and is happy to come by and do a game that we call Do It. You guys want to do some fucking live? How you guys fucking doing? You doing good? Woo! How you guys fucking doing? You doing good? Happy fucking New Year, dog.

Hey, yeah, you too, Mark Wahlberg. So, uh... Oh, I meant to get back to you, James. Oh, you meant to get back to him? I will play Chris Pratt's dad in Guardians of the Galaxy 2. Oh! Star-Lord's father's gonna be... I'm gonna fucking do it.

I turned it down. I shouldn't have turned it down. I'm gonna do it, too. All right, so... Finally, the scoop I was looking for. But Mark is gonna say a line from a motion picture, and the first one of you that can say... I'm gonna kill a fucking line. That that can say Yeah, he thinks his performance

is better than the original most of the time. But if you know the name of the movie, just say it out loud into your microphone. The first person to guess it will win this game. Oh shit. We're all really bad. Here we go. This is going to be a long time. This game is going to take a long time.

Rocky! Okay, we got to be a long time. This game's going to take a long time. Rocky. Okay, we got a pre-guess. Rooker wants to know if it's Rocky, because he likes movies that have a very similar sound to his own name. That is not Rocky. Okay. Ready? That didn't count for my turn, did it?

No, there's no turns. People look stupid when they cry. Oh, there's no turns. We just keep going? What'd you say? People look stupid when they cry. It is fucking super. Way there's no turns. Oh, there's no turns. We just keep going? People look stupid when they cry. It is fucking super. Way to go, dude.

See, James Gunn is so much better at recognizing his own work than you are. I didn't know you were starting already. He started, yeah. That's sort of cheating. Have you ever been in a movie with Mark Wahlberg?

Think hard. No. I don't think you have Have I? I don't think so I have not We tried to get him in the Italian job But he wouldn't play the car Play the what?

The car I was like come on Rooker We'll fucking ride you around the whole time A mini Rooker? Yeah dude But he wouldn't fucking do it Alright Mark Thank you

We'll start with James Gunn because he got the doing lines with Mark. He got the line. Do I get a point for that, for saying a line from my own movie that I know? You just get to go first in this next game. It's all rather arbitrary. All right. And it's especially arbitrary tonight, because I just decided if Michael Rooker can't remember

who he's in movies with, maybe he can remember movies that he's been in, just the names of the movies. And we play a game on this show called Last Man Stanton, where the guests take turns naming movies. It's named after Harry Dean Stanton, because when we played with him, he won. And basically, we're going to take turns. I'm going to sit this one out,

but you guys are going to take turns naming movies that Michael Rooker has been in. Okay. Until you guys, if you can't think of one, you're out. And we'll start with you, Sean. And then we'll go. James, James. Super.

You took the one that's already been mentioned. Yes, sir. Days of Thunder. That's right. Henry. Full title please Henry Portrait of a Serial Killer

You were really looking at me like I should know who Buddy Bolden is. But the birth of jazz. You really filled it in nicely.

Jazz stuff. What do you got? James objects. He wants to win this thing. Who did? No wonder it was up front. Try another one. You can do it the films of michael rooker i bet you've done another one with these guys at the table that hasn't been said yet

I've been in both of them. Are they related? Neither one of those are related. Name the director of one of them. Michael Brickman. That's pretty good. I'm surprised.

I don't even know if there is a Michael Brickman. Is it my turn again? Brickman. Michael Brickman. Marty's Brickman. Is it my turn? Back to back. What was that? Michael Bergman. Is it my turn? Yes. Back to back.

What was that? Oh, it's delightful. You don't know back to back? It was produced by Japanese producers and studio. Hey, Doug. It's Ryan in the booth.

Hey. Michael is correct, obviously, on table for one and table one. But unfortunately, Back to Back was a TV movie. Oh, sorry. I didn't say Back to Back. He did. Are you serious? I said Back to Back.

Oh, so James is out. Who could have seen this coming? Wow. Sean, can you think of another one? Well, you didn't specify it had to be a film.

I, you know, meant to. Wait, whose turn was it? What was that movie you did with that? Did you know Back to Back's a TV movie? I had no idea. I don't think it is. I think it? What was that movie you did with that? Did you know Back to Back's a TV movie? I had no idea. I don't think it is.

I think it's a directed DVD movie. It was right to DVD. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Paid the mortgage! I like to go with movies that are in theaters, but I also liked how exciting this game is becoming. If it's movies that...

So, James is still in. If it's movies that... Yeah! If it's movies that are in theaters, then we've only got like four or five titles for Rooker. There's some good ones. That is so not true. There's some good ones you haven't said yet.

So we're back on you, James. What? You're still in. Oh, you're still in. You get another chance. I'm saying you can say another one oh oh you're gonna give it doesn't count oh it doesn't count out TV this is about movies defend your art form trigger effect that's correct.

Good one. I wish I could remember the name of that crazy sci-fi movie that you did a few years ago. God damn it. You're helping him. What was I doing? Yeah, tell him about it. Was I acting or something? Did you do other things in movies?

I hurt, yeah, no, I don't hurt anyone. You're a monster. You must have played Frankenstein at some point in your life.

You're just guessing any kind of blanket Frankenstein guess. Who's that child molester? Is that one of his movies? No, I'm sorry. Oh,

dude! Something, yeah. Something, a movie that starts with something? Alright, I'm out. Alright, Sean's out. Oh, dude. I'm not impressed with you tonight.

I know. Sea of Love. I said Sea of Love. You're saying all my better. You're saying all my good ones. No, there's a lot left. Not good ones. Sea of Love? Sea of Love is good. I'm saying he doesn't have many good ones. No, there's a lot left. Not good ones. What?

See, I'm laughing. See, love is good. I'm saying he doesn't have many good ones left. We've only said one in the first five years of your motion picture acting career. Doug, give him a hint.

That's right. Oh, sorry. Don't give him hints. I forgot. I just, I did so. I know, dude. I know. I'm going to kick your ass.

You are going to kick my ass. Because I'm running out. How about, how about I'm going to kick your ass. You are going to kick my ass. Because I'm running out. How about Days of Thunder? Did you say that one already? Not only that, he said it and then you said it

correctly for saying it. So you can imagine how fun it is with lines and him on set. Yeah, you're just like, just say, And you wonder why he gave the same speech at the beginning and the end of the movie. It's because it's the only speech he knew. There was originally two great separate speeches. Ah, let's see.

Okay, you ready? Yeah. You got one? I got one. Let's hear it. I got it. Okay, then do it. Okay. It's called drama. I got it. Okay, then do it. Okay. It's called... It's called drama.

Yeah, you know. Drama? No, no, no. Drama movie? No, no, no. I'm creating tension. Oh, right now? Yes.

He's calling his riveting pause drama. I'll translate. This is this fascinating pause that he's taking. It's dead air. of us call it dead air He has labeled drama Most of us call it bored podcast listeners There's no pause here There's no pause

I'm not pausing No, you're filling this time Come on, I got more Very engaging I got plenty more I do not think you do Come on. I got more. Very engaging. I got plenty more. I don't think you do. I do not think you do.

From here forward, to your one, he has to name two. Just name one. Because he cheated the first time. You can do it. I named two. Take your time. Let me think a moment. I want to pick a good one.

I can tell you, Table for One and Table, those movies didn't appear in theaters, right? I'm afraid to say some of these because I'm thinking people will actually go look them up and want to see them. In the booth, they're looking at IMDb Prime. I was looking at Leonard Maltin's Guide. There's still a few left.

But I'm telling you, Table for One and Table One, if back-to-back doesn't count, those movies probably don't count either. That's not true. I know There's still a few left But I'm telling you Table for one And table one If those If back to back Doesn't count Those movies probably Don't count either That's not true Pennhurst People are going

Yup That's definitely Straight to DVD That's not on the list We acted in that film He directed it That's That's

Yeah you really Don't want people Looking at that movie Wait you just pulled out A movie you directed Like it took that long To think of that That was

Scraping the bottom. And it was straight to DVDs. Oh, God. It was a lovely movie, was it? It's got to go into theaters, man. Yeah, yeah. Oh, straight to... Oh, we got to...

I don't even know what we're laughing about. He said Bastard Out of Carolina. What you just fucking said. He's just going to copy me. Okay, don't say two this time. Just one more. I don't know if I know one more. You don't?

No. I mean, I get the solo. I got another one. Can I come back? I won't. Bone Collector. The Bone Collector. Yes.

Of course. That was a good one. Okay, what ones are we... So we're going to call James the winner. We're missing a lot. I'm the winner. Well, he's not the winner! How do you say that?

How can you say that? Because he said a bunch of your movies. When you couldn't say one. Yeah, he said a few of them. A dramatic pause can only go on for so long before it becomes that you've lost. You know, Art Carney could make a dramatic pause last only go on for so long before it becomes that you've lost. You know, Art Carney could make a dramatic pause last entire show. Who did?

You're no Art Carney. An entire show? Hey, watch it. Hey, watch this. Hey, did you see The Honeymooners last night? Art Carney did a pause for the entire show. Don't ruin the first thing. Hey, but what about your first movie ever?

What do you think that was? Like your first movie role? Like, does that, do you have memories of that? His first movie role was Henry from The Serial Killer. No, just any, like any part in a movie. The first time you had a part in a movie. It was Henry. No, no, it was years after that.

What are you talking about? Yeah, yeah, you were in Light of Day. Yeah, I know, yeah. Eight Men Out. Right. Mississippi Burning. That's right. Fucking Rent-A-Cop.

Rent-A-Cop. Rent-A-Cop, that's right. That's cop rent a cop that's right that's that you must have crazy ass stories from that movie or you don't remember a thing about it music box with Jessica Lange oh yes I remember that yes sea of love days with thunder

then Henry portrait of serial killer he'd been in a shit ton of movies no but he shot that first I shot that first when he shot it took. I shot that first. Oh, and it came out that many years later. It took five years to be released. That's awesome.

I love it. And also, when it did come out, you were that guy that had already been in a bunch of stuff. You weren't an unknown. Yeah, but I didn't. That was like a friend of mine. It was his favorite movie. That's why I don't talk to him. Which one?

Music Box. Henry. Henry Porter serial killer all right yeah people that are into that movie yeah they like that stay away from them how come how come it's hilarious it is one of your more romantic comedies should have been a musical oh Oh, that's a great idea. Have you ever had a romantic subplot in a movie? Ever? Yeah.

What was it? She died after. What was it? Did you kill her or did she just die? Nah, somebody else killed her. What'd you do in the George A. Romero movie, The Dark Half? It was called The Hard Truth. Oh, yeah, he had a good role in The Dark Half.

Yeah? The Hard Truth. And John Singleton's Rosewood? I bet you were a racist in that. Rosewood, yeah, yeah, yeah, he was a racist role in The Dark Half. Yeah? The hard truth. And John Singleton's Rosewood? I bet you were a racist in that. Rosewood, yeah, yeah, yeah. He was a racist. Hella racist in that. Do you know the one with Michael J. Fox?

Keys to Tulsa, you're probably racist there, too. What about the one with Michael J. Fox? What one with Michael J. Fox? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Can you guess what that is? Wait, Light of Day. Light of Day, yeah. You were really great in regurgitating the ones we just mentioned.

This is real, everybody. This is like what I deal with all day long, half of my adult life. Well, thank you guys so much for being here, and James Gunn is our winner. We don't need to worry

about the shithead on the back of your name tag and the person that you won on behalf of. Come get your stuff. Come get your dripping bags. They'll be fun to carry around. You might want to get a backup bag real soon. It's not that much, really. And don't forget, who gets the cupcakes?

Are you going to keep the cupcakes? No, I don't want to keep them. He doesn't want to gets the cupcakes? Are you going to keep the cupcakes? No, I don't want to keep them. Maybe we can spread them around. He doesn't want to keep cupcakes, so take the cupcakes and the mask for sure. I'll have a cupcake. There you go. Enjoy the cupcakes. He took the best one.

And his coffee one. Yeah, looks really good. Oh, my God. Congratulations. A good job balancing all that. Thank you, Jocelyn, for the cupcake. The release date for Guardians of the Galaxy 2, May? May 2017.

May 5? Something like that, yeah. Cinco de Mayo, that's perfect. Fantastic. And all these gentlemen. That's the title, Guardians of the Galaxy 2 Cinco de Mayo. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what Guardians of the Galaxy 2 Cinco de Mayo. Yeah, yeah.

You know what? I think it's Cinco de Mayo in space. I gotta tell you, it's really not fair to bring up all those movies because there's just... There's too many of them for me to remember, dude. It's ending, Rooker. It's over. Doesn't matter.

Next time. He should do something more nice. Yeah, just say it. Say it quietly. Oh, yeah, yeah. I couldn't remember it, but it was in the bag and he took it away. What did he say? At the end of the show, as a consolation prize

for your performance and Sean's, on behalf of the people you're playing for, they can make me call anyone or anything in the world a shithead. So that's what I'm going to do at the very end of the show. Really? Yeah. You do that? Mm-hmm.

Did it the last time you were on? I think you were equally puzzled by it. People like that when you do that? Mom and dad, that's not nice. Is that not nice? Yeah, don't call people shitheads.

That's the lesson we learned here tonight. Thank you, James Gunn, Sean Gunn, and Michael Rucker. Thank you. And as always, Germany dubbing every movie is a shithead.

It's an esoteric one. And the lineup of Coachella is a shithead. Now it's time for Doug to dance with Dougher. Pocky, eyes of gold, is viewing cow as pig. Pocky, there's no room in his heart for you. Cause Doug loves movies!
