Starting point is 00:06:23 We've got Andrew. No, by first name, which means the first guest I'm going to introduce is all the way there on the other end. It's Brian Poseid, everybody. We did it. We did.
Starting point is 00:06:42 We got together here on Wilshire Boulevard. There's no volcanoes to worry about i didn't see tommy lee jones out there and uh brian was the first guest ever on doug loves movies it's true it was called i love movies at the. And we just sat there and talked about movies for 20 minutes. And just read from Malton's book. We used the Malton book to play the Malton game, I think. Yeah, that sounds familiar. Yeah, 17 years ago, buddy.
Starting point is 00:07:15 Wow. I'm old as shit. I remember that day you were like, I'm going to grow out my beard. This is my strike beard from the first strike. It's the 2007 strike. The 2007 strike. We had to endure right after this show debuted.
Starting point is 00:07:41 Yes. If I'm doing the math right. Also joining us today, this man is... Well, we'll get into it with him. We'll get into the specifics in a second. It's Guy Branum, everybody!
Starting point is 00:08:02 So Guy Branum is an ongoing champion on the show. How many wins do you have now? I don't remember. Like three or four. Well, yeah. I mean, if I were you, I'd probably block out your trip to Brea. But then there were a couple of Zoomers in there.
Starting point is 00:08:19 Yep. So I think today you have a chance at like a four peep or a five peep. That's exciting. Something like that. It's funny that I couldn't do it. I couldn't even be bothered to figure out how many times he's won. But I just thought you'd know. Because a lot of people that come on this show,
Starting point is 00:08:33 they remember exactly what the wins and losses were. They take it very seriously. I do take the game very, very seriously. You do. But I'm not focusing on my own stats. I'm focusing on Meg Ryan own stats. I'm focusing on Meg Ryan's stats. You know?
Starting point is 00:08:47 But thank you so much for having me on this very special episode. I wish I could give you a treat right now. Because you are a good boy. Also joining us today, you get to hear her voice
Starting point is 00:09:02 every year around the holidays. Hashtag war on Christmas because she sings, co-sings the Christmas version of the theme song of the show. It's Kate McEwchie! Hi everybody! Hello! Hello! How are you? I'm good. I was saying... No further questions. Paul, How are you? I'm good. I was saying... No further questions. Paul, what can I say about our next guest?
Starting point is 00:09:31 Seriously, though, what's going on? Oh, no, I was just saying I had all these grand plans of stopping at Party City and getting one of those balloons that's a one and a seven, but I didn't have time. And then I had this idea for a cartoon, and I had it too late, and I didn't have time to draw. But maybe I'll draw it when I get home and I'll send it to you but it's just Doug Loves, maybe like a D-L-M
Starting point is 00:09:50 but it has eyes and it's driving a car and it says now Doug Loves Movies is old enough to drive in New Jersey laughter applause laughter laughter So she's going to draw that later.
Starting point is 00:10:07 And I'll buy the balloons later. And send me your copy, and I'll post it, because that does sound very cute. And you're often, like, one time I was in Salt Lake City, of all places, and there was, in the green room, you had left a drawing, like, Welcome, Doug, to Salt Lake City. Oh, I left a drawing for welcome doug to salt lake city oh i left the drawing for you yeah because i knew you were coming in yeah you knew i was the next
Starting point is 00:10:30 or some weird fan of yours uh decided to draw in your style because it was very much your style you've had actually had exhibits of your Yeah, and then recently I started tagging in New York. Oh, okay. It's been really fun. I was going to be like, we all do on Instagram. You want to give people keywords that they recognize. I bought a big chunky marker and I go around drawing
Starting point is 00:10:58 little birds and ukuleles everywhere. I fucking love that. Has anybody ever... Nobody's noticed, no trouble with Popo? No, and sometimes I'll have my cute little dog with me and it's very obvious that I'm drawing on a building and then there's a dog. I'm not very sly about it. If they didn't like it, would it wash off? No, I don't think so. I recently, I was just in New York
Starting point is 00:11:23 yesterday and I saw a bunch of things I did two months ago and so it was still so. I recently, I was just in New York yesterday, and I saw a bunch of things I did two months ago, and so it was still there. I was so happy. What were you doing in New York? Oh, visiting all the things that I had drawn. That ukulele and that little birdie. I love it.
Starting point is 00:11:40 That's so cool. Do you have locations? Like, do you have it written down where you put them? Well, so far it's just been one big block in the East Village. Like, between 11th and 12th and 2nd and 3rd you can go find. It'd be fun to find, you know, go there and then try to find them all. And I have a three-year-old and I let him tag with me. So if you see just random scribbles, that's Mikey's. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:12:05 Oh, Mikey. Can't hurt to start them early. Yeah. Nice try, Mikey. You'll be in the big leagues with your mom someday. And speaking of the big leagues... My mouth is full of gum. I love shredded gum.
Starting point is 00:12:34 I always like the way you big league chew the scenery when you're acting. He's the actor with the most gum in his mouth. That wasn't the intro I was going to go with. But ladies and gentlemen, Paul F. Tompkins! This is John McCain, please. They do such a great job with the marquee here at Dynasty Typewriter. They always put fun stuff up there. And for today's performance, it says, Poseyne,
Starting point is 00:13:05 Branagh, McCoochie, poofed. Like it is insulting the three previous names. Somebody responding to our names. Paul, you have the honor, if that's the right word for it, of being... Exactly.
Starting point is 00:13:27 You have, I'm pretty sure, have appeared as the most people on this show. I should hope so. Over the years. Because we had one guy that was Mark Wahlberg a lot, and we had a couple other people that would pop in once in a while with a character,
Starting point is 00:13:42 but you really did several characters many times. Am I the only person to play against myself? Yes. As three different people? That is an honor. Yes. Yes, you were a sole guest and played all the parts.
Starting point is 00:13:58 You know, that was the day that many people in L.A. died in that accident, and you were the only guest who showed up. That's right. And you know what? We were supposed to never forget, and I forgot. I don't remember what that accident was. So yeah, and then you actually didn't go on on that show
Starting point is 00:14:17 because, crazy enough, Werner Herzog, Cake Boss, and Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber all walked into UCB and were like, let's do a show. The town is sad today. We need to put on a show. So fortunate. Well, thank all four of you for being here on this auspicious occasion. Well, Doug, I want to say, I haven't been on the show in a while.
Starting point is 00:14:41 It's nice to be back. And also, I also thought to go to Party City And get big balloons That say one and seven And I had plenty of time to do it I just didn't do it I'm glad that nobody did it Because I'd hate for like A strong wind to
Starting point is 00:14:58 You know Change the order of the balloons And it just says 71 It'd be so depressing That's all the strong wind does? Yeah. Well, the air conditioning slightly...
Starting point is 00:15:12 I mean, it's only two, but you know what I mean. Anytime somebody has a series of letters that are balloons, they always get blown around and fucked up. It was ever thus. Yeah. You're at Kate's party going, who's E-Cat? Kate's party. All right.
Starting point is 00:15:32 So before we play our little games today, I would like to do a segment that I call Recommendation Nation, where I put all my guests on the spot and ask them to just introduce one Moesian picture that they think people would enjoy. And I say stay away from big studio movies that are playing now because we're not here to promote that shit. Guy, you want to start us off?
Starting point is 00:15:59 This question's not a surprise to you because you've been on the last four episodes. Yes. Do you know who Emily Heller is? Who? Emily Heller. She's a very funny comedian. Oh, yes, yes. I'm sure she's done the show before.
Starting point is 00:16:11 It's been 17 goddamn years. Yeah. She's been obsessed with farces, and so she's been making people come to her home and watch farces. And recently we watched Ruthless People, which I thought of, I remembered it as an eight-year-old
Starting point is 00:16:24 as being less classy than down and on Beverly Hills and watching it it's a fucking steel trap of a script. It's so good it is so funny. I was just like really wowed by it and it really is Bette Midler in that year that she realized
Starting point is 00:16:39 like what she could do in the bathhouse she could also do in a touchstone film. It's like Bill Pullman made that movie and then walked away from comedy. Yeah. Like, you know, he's just become a more serious actor,
Starting point is 00:16:53 but he was really silly in that. Wait, no, it's Ed Begley. Is it Ed Begley Jr? He's like the blonde guy that, uh, no,
Starting point is 00:17:00 I forget who it is. Yeah. Maybe it's neither of those guys. Maybe I'm bad at remembering things from movies now. Maybe you're thinking of big business. Oh, I do love it is. Maybe it's neither of those guys. Maybe I'm bad at remembering things from movies now. Maybe you're thinking of Big Business. I do love Big Business. Ruthless People, is that the Ransom of Big Chief type thing? It's somebody gets kidnapped.
Starting point is 00:17:19 It's DeVito and Bette Midler. Midler, DeVito. Yeah, and Pullman plays the dumb guy. There's nothing more Paul F. Tompkins than referencing the short story from the 19-teens that it is based on as very classy work. That is literally all I know about the movie. It's the important thing to know about the movie.
Starting point is 00:17:48 It might be all you need to know. All right. So that's your recommendation? Yes, people should... It'd be funny if we had this whole discussion and you still had a recommendation to give. No, people should watch Ruthless People and enjoy it. I want to give it another go
Starting point is 00:18:02 because I haven't seen it for a while. And I do remember enjoying it back when. Brian? Barbarian? Okay. I'm trying to think of what isn't, like, well, the one we were saying, the brand new one. Is that a big studio movie? No, but the other one that I just told
Starting point is 00:18:27 when I first walked in and I said hey have you watched Talk To Me yeah that's what kind of movie is that? Talk To Me is like the best horror film out right now but then I was trying to think of what's maybe from a year ago that people didn't see but right it's funny
Starting point is 00:18:43 Barbarian came up a lot on this show when it okay cool yeah but so talk to me though isn't that it's probably an independent movie if it's a horror film right it's a24 so yeah a24 they're the ones that like they've honored all of like that's the argument is why can't these big companies like disney and netflix why can't they do what a24 has done, which is give everyone a 3% raise and some goddamn residuals when the show's on streaming.
Starting point is 00:19:12 Right. Yeah! But, Doug, if everyone did what A24 did, then there would have to be a sexy murder in everything that Disney made and everything that Universal made. Or just a general veneer of creepiness. 824 likes to get weird.
Starting point is 00:19:33 Sure. And I love them for it. Alright, so tell us a little bit about Talk To Me. I don't know any, they're all Australian so it's no big name actors but uh it just i was in right away and it's just you know how something good starts and you're like this isn't shitty you know what i mean like right away you're like they're not dumbing down
Starting point is 00:19:59 and they're not you know i'm not being treated like a fucking idiot. And the plot was cool and the story was cool and you were just in right away. Young people, and I'm an old guy who, I'm supposed to hate young people, but I don't. Even in the movies where I'm supposed to hate them. I'm like, they seem likable enough. Are you worried that you're a reverse Scrooge and that you'll get visited by three ghosts
Starting point is 00:20:28 who are just sour? Yes. Well, all the old comics our age have just gone really like, meh. I hate the Gen Z and the millennials and I don't want to ever be that guy. They're so woke. It's so hard because they're so woke.
Starting point is 00:20:45 Yeah. You can't say anything anymore! Oh, yeah. It's so hard being racist in 57. I'm just, I'm a 57-year-old racist man, and I just have trouble being that person now. It's just jokes about the color of people's skin. That's all.
Starting point is 00:21:07 Hey, listen, I don't have time in my day to understand things. You give you a participation trope. I don't have time to understand things because I'm too busy getting coffee in cars. Oh, shit. I was going to do a game where all the answers were people who are currently scabs. That's a great idea. Maybe I'll do it on the next one if Guy's not on that one.
Starting point is 00:21:46 Well, I want to already guess. Pizza Man. Who? You don't remember the iconic Bill Maher movie, Pizza Man. Oh, shit. Which frequently ran alongside Amazon Women in the Avocado Jungle on Comedy Central when I was in college. That's right. Pizza Man was the movie that launched and crashed
Starting point is 00:22:07 Bill Maher's movie career. I've seen everything shitty. How am I not aware of Pizza Man? It's a Bill Maher thing? Yeah, there's no reason you should be aware of Pizza Man. But it is funny to think that movie came out and people were like, wait, two hours of this guy? No.
Starting point is 00:22:29 There was a, wasn't there a pizza boy? I think there's a pizza boy. A prequel? Paper boy. Yeah, it was a Richard Linklater thing where he just follows one person around from the typical menial job you do at each stage of your life. Crazy. All right. Who's next?
Starting point is 00:22:52 Kate? There's this movie Pizza Man. Actually, no. I've never heard of Pizza Man. Are you saying Pete's a man? Finally. Is it a coming of age story? It's about a bar mitzvah.
Starting point is 00:23:09 All takes place on one day. Oh, I love those kind of movies. I mean, keep pitching. There's a quinceañera across the street. And boy, did those kids grow up that day. No, what do you have for reals, Kate? Well, speaking of growing up, I really loved Are You There, God?
Starting point is 00:23:33 It's Me, Margaret. Have you seen it? It's so good. That's what I'm hearing. It's such a great, it's really just like a solid, I give it a 10 out of 10. It really is awesome.
Starting point is 00:23:44 It's like the acting is great. All the kids in it are so believable and really, really great. Rachel McAdams is so sweet and lovable. Everybody's so good. And it's shot beautifully. It kind of has that like 90s nostalgia, the way it's shot, even though it's set in the,
Starting point is 00:23:57 I want to say late 70s, 80s. And the score is beautiful. I recommend it. Well, you know, without spoiling it, is he there? They kind of leave you hanging. Okay, I thought they might. I thought they might leave it open for a sequel.
Starting point is 00:24:19 He is there, and his response is, Margaret who? Dang. He's there, but he looks at it and goes, new phone, who dis? All right, Paul, what do you got? The first thing that came to mind when you said that was a movie called Time After Time, which is an old movie, came out in the late 70s, early 80s about H.G. Wells actually building a time machine and chasing Jack the Ripper to the future.
Starting point is 00:24:51 It's McDowell, right? Yeah, Malcolm McDowell, the great David Warner, who just passed away within the last couple years, and Mary Steenburgen. It's written by, and I think directed by, Nicholas Meyer. Really fun movie. Really fun movie. Really fun movie. There you go. Look, I did
Starting point is 00:25:10 what I was asked to do. I don't know why everyone got so quiet. I'd say top two romantic time travel films. Somewhere in Time? Christopher Reeve, yes sir. Oh, don't look at a penny. Points! Yeah, that is a terrific recommendation on all the levels because Mary Steenburgen is very charming in it.
Starting point is 00:25:35 She's great. And it's early on in her thing. But, yeah, David Warner was kind of a go-to villain of the time. It's so good. Because it was just like, just get a British guy they're all dicks and but he was really good in that one really really good he probably had more fun making that than Tron he seemed like the kind of actor that would put up with sitting around doing Tron I was just recently talking about this with another friend of mine who sent me a picture of Tron with David Warner.
Starting point is 00:26:11 And it's like one of those, it's behind the scenes, so it just looks like they're wearing pajamas. And he's like, do you think this was a low point in his life? And I'm like, British actors of a certain generation were like, as long as it doesn't interfere with my stage work, I don't care what it is. So I'll do whatever garbage you want me to do and that I can pay my alimony with that and then I can devote myself to my real career, the stage!
Starting point is 00:26:37 Yeah. Michael Caine would accidentally be in a good movie every five or six movies in the 90s. It was a weird time for British actors to have to be that role.
Starting point is 00:26:54 It truly was. There's only so many of them get to play Alfred. Who's next, do you think? Who's the next That should be a reality the next that should be a reality show that should be a reality show I mean I think Ray Fiennes would be
Starting point is 00:27:15 he's in the Lego Batman already but I think he'd be fantastic he's kind of in the wheelhouse for it I think he's reached the age yeah he's there hey those Batman keep getting younger, those Alfreds keep staying the same age.
Starting point is 00:27:34 Where do you get such marvelous jokes? So, yeah, who's the Alfred figure in the Batman? Is it Jeremy Irons, right? I think so. Oh, it was. I didn't get that far. Oh. Was it Andy Serkis?
Starting point is 00:27:50 No, it was Andrew Serkis. Andrew Serkis. The Andrew Serkis came to town. Jeremy Irons did one of them. Yeah. No, it's true. I'm telling you, there's so many Alfreds now. He's Ben Affleck's Alfred. He's Ben Affleck's Alfred.
Starting point is 00:28:06 He's Ben Affleck's Alfred. They came to me. They told me from the booth. I personally am ready for a female Alfred. Dame Emma Thompson can reveal a car. I want that to happen just to watch the fucking nerds freak out.
Starting point is 00:28:30 As an old nerd, that's my favorite thing. Watching young nerds get pissed. That's a great argument. That's a maid! It's butlers and maids! The two genders. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:52 At this point, they'd be like, you just ruined my childhood and my adulthood. You ruined everything. All right, great recommendations, everybody. Let's go to a, yeah. 17 years, let's go to a break. We'll be right back. We're back.
Starting point is 00:29:16 Woo! Woo! Oh, what a fun name tag selection process we have. Brian picked a life of Brian because, of course, your name's Brian. Well, and you fucking went after him, and I felt bad for him. I'm sorry, Brian. Brian's sitting funny now because I tore him a new one. I went hard on Brian.
Starting point is 00:29:50 He's like changing his sign to death of Brian. Paul is playing for a very nice lady named Susan who made a desperately seeking Susan poster on her phone and we trust her. It's too far away to check. And we got, Kate's gonna play for Jonner, who regular listeners
Starting point is 00:30:15 might recognize Jonner, he's been in the mix before. And Guy is playing for Dungeons and Dinkins. Isn't that a TV movie, Dungeons and Dinkins? Dawkins and Dinkins? All right, doesn't matter. You got picked regardless. And good luck, everybody. The first game we're going to play today
Starting point is 00:30:51 is something called Alex's, Jason and Deb's IMDB game. I almost forgot to give the clapping signal. Alright, so here's how this game works. I will start to name the top four movies in the best known for section of an actor or actress's IMDb page. When you think you know who it is, buzz in with your own name. I'll stop.
Starting point is 00:31:24 You'll guess. If you're right, you get a point. And you can get bonus points for each additional movie in their top four that you can name. Yeah. It's a good way to get points. Will you say it all again real quick? You don't want to jump in too fast
Starting point is 00:31:42 on the first one because most movies have a lot of actors in them. Boy, that's true. Right? And you get a negative point if you miss. Fuck. Any point during the game. So we're going, it's the, we're picking an actor
Starting point is 00:32:00 and then it's what they're known for. You start with. Yeah, there's four titles across the top of their MVP page. Known for. Yeah, that's known for. And then I will say the first one. You can buzz in there if you want. Okay.
Starting point is 00:32:15 But it might be risky. Are you going backwards from fourth? No, I'll start left to right. The most popular. Yeah, I guess. I don't even know if those four things are ranked that way. Do you know what your number one thing is? No idea.
Starting point is 00:32:31 I got to guess. Sarah Silverman? I don't know. What was that game we're on off World Interceptor? Yeah, that's it. I swear, I've had video games that I did a voice on show up in my top four. I'm like, I was in other stuff. It's probably Big Bang.
Starting point is 00:32:48 Yeah, Big Bang Theory. Yeah. Okay. I looked mine up backstage and it just said, beats me? Are they even allowed to, are they allowed to do that? I've seen actors on there with plenty of credits and they they'll have a two or a three, best known for. And it's like, okay, I guess they probably went in there and fixed it themselves, you know? It's like, let's not get crazy.
Starting point is 00:33:14 Just because there's four spots doesn't mean there's four things I'm proud of. Yeah, yeah. Okay, so you get the idea. We got this. First round. The first motion picture that this person is associated with is called Chicago. Kate. You're going to take a guess.
Starting point is 00:33:40 Go for it. I like your style, Kate. I don't think it's going to work out for you but I like it what do you got John C. Reilly that's a fun guess best sporting actor nominee
Starting point is 00:33:55 for that film for coming out singing one song with his fingers Mr. Cellophane Ryan sing along I never saw that movie I love that. Brian, sing along. I never saw that movie. How dare you. Catherine Zeta-Jones gave you everything.
Starting point is 00:34:14 She put it out there for you, Brian Posey. And you just walked away like you were better than it. Oh, he watched the shit out of Entrapment with Sean Carter. I always said Chicago should have a number where she has to push her butt through lasers Yes Catherine Zeta laser butt Alright, so Kate unfortunately got a negative point
Starting point is 00:34:37 I just thought I'd try You can't jump in again on this round Okay, fair enough Why put yourself through that? That'd be a funny way to play it, though. She just keeps jumping in and guessing every person. That was ridiculously smart, though. Who from that movie has as varied of a career as John C. Reilly?
Starting point is 00:34:54 I think it was a fucking brilliant play, Makuchi, and I'm impressed. Thank you. I mean, I haven't seen it lately, but I think his number one movie would be like Step Brothers or Talladega Nights. But, you know, I'm just guessing. Anyway, Chicago's definitely in his top four, though, because like I said, he got nominated for an Oscar. Here's the second movie. House on Haunted Hill.
Starting point is 00:35:20 Oh, guy. Oh, Paul is in. Oh. Yeah, Brian was going to start answering. It's Paul. Brian was very helpful. I forgot what I was supposed to do. What did you do?
Starting point is 00:35:33 I just was going to answer. I forgot what I'm here to do. No, but buzzing in with your name, it's not like something I do every day. It's a lot. What do you want for breakfast, honey? Brian Hanks! Okay, wait. Oh, Paul, go ahead. Alright.
Starting point is 00:36:06 I am... I've seen House on Haunted Hill. Saw it when it came out. Don't know that I've retained a lot. I may be confusing it with 13 Ghosts. But I'm going to say Catherine Zeta-Jones. Oh. Is that what you were going to say, Brian?
Starting point is 00:36:26 Yeah, because you already said it. That's good, because Paul's going to get the negative point. Oh, okay. Yeah, you dodged a bullet there, buddy. I didn't see that coming. Yeah. What a twist. I don't know what guy was planning to guess, but you buzzed in next.
Starting point is 00:36:45 So what do you got? Oh, no, I did not get in quick enough. So now I get to hear another clue. That seems fair. That seems fair. It does. If this were a real game show, your buzzer would have been locked out. So this is where we would be at.
Starting point is 00:37:05 You would still be able to go for it. So Brian and Guy are the only two eligible to figure this out at this time. Must be nice. The third title in this person's best known for is Rent. Like I fucking saw that. Guy. Who is it, Guy? It's Taye Diggs. That is correct!
Starting point is 00:37:33 Wow! Taye Diggs! TD. Now Guy gets to guess one more potential. Oh, what, the fourth one? Taye Diggs. Yeah, if Guy guesses it, he gets another point. I have no good answers for this
Starting point is 00:37:56 because I can't think of a Taye Diggs movie except for I watched Go last night and he was in that. It's probably not famous enough to be in his top four, but I'm going to say Go because I'm still on my Sarah Pauly kick. And he should be, that should be in his top four. Yeah. That's easily one of his best movies.
Starting point is 00:38:16 Yeah, Go is really good. I noticed him in, yeah. Yeah. Didn't even make his top four, though. Yeah. This is a movie I haven't seen. Equilibrium. Equilibrium. Equilibrium!
Starting point is 00:38:33 Don't fall out of your chair. I haven't seen the fucking blockbuster musicals that everybody saw, but I fucking saw Equilibrium. Did you really? In a world where everyone has an inner ear imbalance, one man. What is Equilibrium? In a world where everyone has an inner ear imbalance One man What is equilibrium? It was when every movie wanted to be the Matrix
Starting point is 00:38:53 And it was another Where they set up this whole world And they're cops And future cops And they have to keep the equilibrium of the universe? Pretty much I don't know He's the equilibrium of the universe? Pretty much. I don't know. He's probably one of the leads in that?
Starting point is 00:39:09 Yeah. There you go. Proud of all that work he did in that one, I guess. All right. So Guy is on the board with one point. And Brian and Kate and Paul are in different stages of no points. And negative points. What?
Starting point is 00:39:28 Now, Lindsay Jones was in The House on Haunted Hill, though, right? Was she? Yeah. Yes. Yeah. That was, I have to say, nasty play, Doug. I know. That's why you need to wait for the equilibrium is the real giveaway there.
Starting point is 00:39:42 If you're anybody but Paul or Kate or Guy, Brian's the only equilibrium fan in the bunch. All right, here goes round two. Buzz in with your own name. You know, first sound that comes out of your mouth is officially, you know, it's first syllable. People with two syllables worry that like, oh, how am I going to get in
Starting point is 00:40:05 faster than Guy or Kate or Paul? And Brian, it's simple. I wasn't even worried. It's going to be based on the bri part. The bri part is what I need to hear. Does it have to be your name? Is it just going to be a noise? Well, I'd like it
Starting point is 00:40:22 to be close to your name. Yeah. I call you that all the time, so I'd like it to be close to your name. Buh! Yeah. Doug called you that all the time, so I'd recognize that. When we first met, Doug thought I was Dracula. Yeah. I called him Jump Scare, because every time I'd say hi, he'd go, huh! That's a good nickname.
Starting point is 00:40:39 Like you'd hear in a movie. Somebody that's in a gang, Jump Scare. Okay, round two. Here we go. movie. Somebody that's in a gang. Jump scare. Okay. Round two. Here we go. First movie is a motion picture called Rent. Okay.
Starting point is 00:40:53 Second movie. I like smart players. Nobody's taking a chance on Rent. The second film is called The Lego Batman Movie. Paul. Paul F. Tompkins.
Starting point is 00:41:06 I don't even fucking know. Is this fun to buzz in? I'm just going to go. Look, life is short, guys. I came here to play. Rosario Dawson. That is correct. Good work.
Starting point is 00:41:26 Wow. I mean, you buzzed in, but I was about to just remind Kate that she's not in Rent. What's she play in the League of Batman? She's, what's her name? Commissioner, isn't she like... Barbara Gordon. Barbara Gordon. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:41:43 Yeah, yeah. You know how they flip the, she's the daughter of Commissioner Gordon and she takes over when he has a massive stroke. Is this for real? Can you imagine a little Lego figure having to explain to children what a stroke is? It's funny to see kids play with a stroke is. I forget why
Starting point is 00:42:07 is he sidelined though? I forget because he has to kind of step down as his daughter takes over. I don't think they explain it. Maybe they say that he has to go make another Gary Marshall movie. Hector Elizondo is the voice. Hector Elizondo! because Hector Elizondo is the voice. Oh, Hector Elizondo! Oh, of course!
Starting point is 00:42:26 I should have known. Should have known. All right, so two more Rosario Dawson movies, and Paul, you'll be in the lead if you can name them. Yeah, that's right, because I'm negative. Now I'm at zero. Two more Rosario Dawson movies. Pass.
Starting point is 00:42:54 And? Forfeit? So many actors in movies with such generic names like that, that system could work on occasion. But the two movies that she has in her top four are Sin City and Unstoppable. Oh. Spin City? Oh, Sin City.
Starting point is 00:43:20 So, Paul, you're back to zero. Guy has one. Kate's still at negative one. And Brian is also at zero. Round three starts with, do I even have to say it? Rent. Okay, okay. I am proud to announce I have exhausted my rent cast knowledge.
Starting point is 00:43:48 All right, the second film. Wait, there's a guy. Oh, there's a guy I'm thinking of. He won't be. This won't be him. The second film is Dazed and Confused. One single clap for Dazed and Confused. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:04 I think the clap was the answer Guy, Guy, Guy Anthony Rapp that is correct alright chance for two more points Guy if you can name two more alright so this is
Starting point is 00:44:22 IMDB top four which sometimes includes television shows and in the past on Doug Loves Movies I've beenb Top Four, which sometimes includes television shows. And in the past on Doug Loves Movies, I've been fucked by the fact that it includes television shows. So I'm going to say Star Trek Discovery. And? Oh, and something else. What the fuck has Anthony Rapp been in?
Starting point is 00:44:41 Court testifying against Kevin Spacey. Court testifying against Kevin Spacey. Oh, I react to the truth. Somebody says a fact, I go, oh! Is this a big Kevin Spacey crowd? Thank you for paying for time for me on my behalf, Paul. Of course. I have to pass.
Starting point is 00:45:05 That's fair, that's fair. Okay, so the two that they went with, they didn't go with the TV show. They went with A Beautiful Mind, and I guess he's in that, and then very memorable in his child performance in Adventures in Babysitting. Oh, yes! Oh, wow!
Starting point is 00:45:22 He's the friend who comes along. Yeah, he's the one, comes along. Yeah. I did not know. He looks like Ron Weasley, basically. Yeah, and he hangs out around Elizabeth's shoe, drooling. Alright, so that means Guy now has two points. But anybody,
Starting point is 00:45:37 this is still anybody's game, but probably Guy's. Fourth round begins now. The first title is not rent. Oh, no. What the fuck? What is happening?
Starting point is 00:45:53 It's frozen. Guy. Oh, what is happening, Guy? It is Idina Menzel. That is correct. That is correct. What the fuck? Ryan's like, I thought her name was Adele.
Starting point is 00:46:18 No, you get three more. Options for points, opportunities for points. All right, Rent. Enchanted. And... You can do this. I mean... What was that one that Diablo Cody wrote
Starting point is 00:46:38 where Meryl Streep played the rocket role? I don't think she's in that, but Audra McDonald is. I don't have a third in that, but Audra McDonald is. I don't have a third one. That's okay, you don't need a third one, because you just ran away with this game, because of course Rent is in there, Enchanted is in there,
Starting point is 00:46:56 but Disenchanted didn't make the cut, the sequel, because another sequel did, Frozen 2. Frozen 2. Oh, yes! Frozen 2. I believe it was Ricky and the Flash. So weird. Also, I think it's worth saying again how funny it was when John Travolta said the wickedly talented Adele Dazeem.
Starting point is 00:47:26 It's always gonna be funny. It's one of the greatest things that's ever happened. It makes me smile every time I think about it. Just the idea, well, because you know what he said. Wickedly, he was like, it's gonna come to me, it's gonna come to me, it's gonna come to me. And then it didn't. No, and he didn't like whatever reason he didn't want to wear his glasses or like thought he could
Starting point is 00:47:51 handle it just like Adele just Dean because it's probably still on the prompter even though I don't need a problem still there yeah then it just became him trying to read it yeah his glasses. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But the confidence. The confidence! If I'm going to do this, I'm going to do it all the way. Help me, Zinu! Congratulations,
Starting point is 00:48:20 Guy Branum, you won that game! You own that Congratulations Guy Branum, you won that game. You own that game, but what will happen in our next game, I'm bringing back a classic, because I think this panel can handle it. Panel handle. It's called Build a Title. Oh shit! Woo! Panel handle. It's called Build a Title. Okay.
Starting point is 00:48:47 Woo! One of my faves. All right, so this is a game where, you know, just like I said in the beginning, you know, the top of the show, we try to create a really long title like Three Kingsmen, The Golden Circle of Friends with Benefits, It's Wonderful, et cetera.
Starting point is 00:49:06 I'll give you the starter title, and Guy can add a title to the beginning or the end, and then we'll go to Brian, then to Kate, and then to Paul. And if you can't add to it, you're out. And it's, you know And it's more verbal than written when you're coming up with the, and I have to make the final decision, so this game often ends in people arguing.
Starting point is 00:49:38 But it's still fun to see how we do. And I thought it'd be great, I'd like to honor someone that I know. I know for sure he is honoring the strikes and not acting at this time because he's dead. His name is Robert Blake, and he's not problematic in any way. If you want to look into him, you can. But he's dead, so it doesn't really matter. But he starred in a motion picture
Starting point is 00:50:07 that we're going to start with tonight called Lost Highway. So, Guy, you need a movie that ends in lost or begins... Paradise Lost Highway. Okay. Took your time with that is this refresh my memory
Starting point is 00:50:29 do we are we allowed to abandon articles yes we get rid of the a's and the's and it's Brian's turn to
Starting point is 00:50:36 movie that ends in paradise or begins on a highway the opposite of paradise they paved paradise. Say it again. Say his whole thing. The whole thing is
Starting point is 00:50:50 paradise lost highway. Fuck. I'm going out on a... Was there a movie Highway to Heaven? No. I mean, it should have been. I campaigned for it.
Starting point is 00:51:08 For many years. Never mind. Even when they switched angels. I'm fucking... I'm brain farting. I don't have anything. Was there a movie that begins with way? Oh.
Starting point is 00:51:21 Oh, way. Yeah. Or A. A. You got A. oh wait yeah or A A Paradise Lost Highway the Dragon nice yeah
Starting point is 00:51:35 thanks for helping kickstart my stupid stony brain alright so Kate what do you think? You got a dragon or a... I got a in. Would that work?
Starting point is 00:51:50 A what? Drag in and out. Drag in and out. The audience loves it. You said it's more verbal than written. Yeah. Yeah. That's how we say dragon now
Starting point is 00:52:05 Dragon Yeah they drag me in there I don't say dragon Dragon to hell Alright drag in and out So we got We're going back to Oh wait is Paul's turn?
Starting point is 00:52:20 Out blank or Blank pair Uh Nice Paul's turn? Yeah. Out, blank, or blank, pear, dice. I'm going to say Outland. Oh. Speaking of Sean Connery earlier. In space. Paradox lost highway in and out land before time. Space. Paradise Lost Highway In-N-Out Land Before Time. There's a gimme in here, Brian, if you can remember.
Starting point is 00:52:58 Yeah, I know it. I know it. I got it. Oh, that also doesn't really move the ball very far. It's Paradise Lost. Highway. Paradise Lost Highway of the Dragon. Meow.
Starting point is 00:53:11 Meow. Land. Land of. Time before time. Time. Or time after time. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:21 Time after time. Yeah. Yeah. So we got time again. But we also still, Paradise is still sitting there. As always, I am ready for the one
Starting point is 00:53:32 that is not my turn. Yeah. Kate, you got something? Oh, man. Okay. Is there a movie called Almost Paradise? I think so. I mean, i mean there's a song there's definitely a song called that i use that if only there was a device
Starting point is 00:53:53 nobody no there'd be like some sort of weird noise confirming that there is that there is a movie called that yeah yeah so i'm pretty confident there is. I just want to say, I'm now not sure that there's a movie called Paradise Lost. I was thinking of Lost Horizon. No, but Paradise Lost is that documentary about the killer kids. So I'm fine. Don't be so excited about it. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:17 Yeah. Not based on the book, Paradise Lost. No. Okay, so thank God we got Brian here to clear up that one. You said it so confidently, Guy, that I just move on. That's part of the game is tricking me into thinking that your answer is accurate. Then Almost Paradise, remember that one? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:39 No, you were, you know, if you'd have just been Almost Paradise, like that. Yeah, that's okay. I understand that there isn't a just been Almost Paradise like that. Yeah, that's okay. I understand that there isn't a movie called Almost Paradise. What about, you could just use the pear part. Oh. Is there a movie that ends in pear? I've been trying to think of one.
Starting point is 00:54:56 I don't think I've, probably something like, what a pear. Yeah. Aren't we a pear? Moldy pear. Okay, so you're out? Yeah I'm out Okay it's okay
Starting point is 00:55:09 Paul Paradise Lost Highway Of the Dragon Of the Dragon and Outland Before Time After Time Cop Yes Thank you In and Out, Land, Before, Time, After, Time, Cop. Yes. Thank you. In and Out, Time, Cop.
Starting point is 00:55:31 Paradise, Lost, Highway of the Drag, In and Out. What was Out? In and Out. Land. Land, Before, Time, cop and a half. Fuck. There's a movie that's like... Half.
Starting point is 00:55:58 Oh, yeah, got it. I almost had it, and then I got it half baked now there's trouble we might be at the end of the road Paul Too bad there's not a movie about an au pair. There really is. It's called Au Pair?
Starting point is 00:56:36 No way. Is that your answer, Paul? I'm going to say Au Paradise Lost. That's my answer, yeah. Au Pair. God, I love that movie. I'll do it for a rewatch. I haven't seen it in such a long time.
Starting point is 00:56:59 I used to watch it every year on the anniversary of my nanny's death. I used to watch it every year on the anniversary of my nanny's death. Okay guys, you need something that ends in O. That seems doable. Or begins with baked, which does not seem doable. Orlando pear. Yes. Orlando Pear Orlando
Starting point is 00:57:28 Paradise Lost Highway of the Dragon In and Out of Time Before Time Cop and a Half Baked Oh Pear Oh no, O'Pear wasn't getting it
Starting point is 00:57:43 You're still saying Time Before Time After Time Au-pair. Oh, no. Au-pair wasn't the getting. In other words, you're still saying time before time. Time before time, sorry. After time. Time before time. Yeah. It's confusing because of that land before time right there. All right.
Starting point is 00:57:55 So that's something. So you have something that ends in or because I don't think there's any other movies with orlando uh at the end no that's the only orlando that's the only movie i have in my orlando section you have really interesting sections of dvds in your collection Whose turn is it? Yeah, I think it's Brian's turn. But Paul was making thinking noises. I'm making thinking noises for Brian. So he doesn't have to do it.
Starting point is 00:58:35 He was making Brian's thinking noises. Yeah. There's got to be an indie movie called Baked Alaska, right? Or a documentary. You should have just sold us on that you knew another documentary about some other murderers called Paid to Alaska.
Starting point is 00:58:53 Pass? I'll tap out. Tap out with honor because this has been a great one. You got anything that ends in or, Paul? Home Alone 4. That's so good.
Starting point is 00:59:18 Does that count? I don't know. Because first of all, I just, I tapped it. You know, I saw the third one. I'm not going to lie, but I don't even think I saw Home Alone 4. And isn't there a colon and more words? Like, Home Alone 4, the wet bandits are back. I think they stopped subtitling them after a while.
Starting point is 00:59:39 Yeah, they just put the number on there. Yeah. Because, you know, lost in wherever they were probably wasn't as exciting. You didn't need any further information. Yeah. Home Alone 4, Lando. This kid cripples more adults. Home Alone 4, Lando.
Starting point is 00:59:57 How? I'm calling bullshit. How about this? How about this? How about another, you know, any other movie that had a four on it would probably work, Paul? I guess. Well, but I mean, I chose that one
Starting point is 01:00:21 because I don't remember there being a subtitle to that. Probably isn't. I couldn't say Star Wars four because that don't remember there being a subtitle to that. Probably isn't. I couldn't say Star Wars 4 because that of course is a new hope. Yeah. They do add words to a lot of them these days, but some of them are clean, like
Starting point is 01:00:37 Toy Story 4. There's one. Yeah. But also, I mean, you just got Coming Home, Alone 4. Orlando. Orlando, Pear, Paradise Lost. Yes, there's a perfectly good Jane Fonda movie that follows that up.
Starting point is 01:01:04 So we can do that. We can do that. All right, yeah. That's your answer? So Coming Home. Coming Home? Yeah, Coming Home. Yeah, I don't have to say the whole thing.
Starting point is 01:01:15 It's so fun. What's a movie that... I don't... This sounds weird coming out of my mouth, but name a movie that starts with coming. Keep it clean. End starts with coming keep it clean ends with coming which is more frequent
Starting point is 01:01:29 in films duh of course it ends it doesn't start with it unless it's like you know memento
Starting point is 01:01:38 Benjamin Button I don't know. All right. Have you got anything for coming? Blank. Oh, I thought. I think I thought of one. You think you thought of one? Maybe.
Starting point is 01:01:58 What is it? Tell me. I'll say it on mic. You can't trick me. Oh. Oh, I got a real good one. That's being nice. I'll add it on at the end after you fail. I don't know if I have to put it like that.
Starting point is 01:02:21 Yeah, I feel trapped. I can't think one or the other. You can't perform in this environment. I'm boxed in. I'm boxed in. I can't think you can't you can't perform in this environment I'm boxed in I'm boxed in yeah I can't think of anything
Starting point is 01:02:29 nothing you can do did you think of anything else Guy? oh there was a movie called Homecoming but I think it was a TV movie right but I was thinking maybe
Starting point is 01:02:38 Spider-Man Homecoming oh yeah yeah that's the one that's the one. That's the answer. Alright, so it's Spider... Wait, where'd it go?
Starting point is 01:02:49 Where'd I write it down? Spider-Man Homecoming. Homecoming Home. Homecoming Home. Spider-Man... What number was that? Spider-Man. They did not put the numbers in there. It was just probably Spider-Man Homecoming,
Starting point is 01:03:05 home, alone for a land, oh paradise, lost highway of the dragon and outland, before time after time, cop and a half-baked.
Starting point is 01:03:21 Thank you. Cup and a half baked. That's a fun game. Yeah. It's a fun game. It's fun to do. It's good for car rides. Long car rides. Guy won that?
Starting point is 01:03:40 Yeah. We'll find out what he won Right after this break We're back Oh my god Did you hear that? No I didn't hear it We are
Starting point is 01:04:02 I spent my imagination We are headed into the home alone four stretch. And what a competition we've had today. And Guy won the second game. And, of course, as everybody knows, winning games in this show just means you get to go first in the next game. The game that really matters is the final game, which we are about to play. And it's something I call super last person standing. Somewhat truncated edition. We've gone, I've gone long. I almost said we've gone long, like it's anybody else's responsibility. I've gone long. I almost said we've gone long,
Starting point is 01:04:45 like it's anybody else's responsibility. I've gone long. So what we're going to do is, since Guy was the winner of that last game, we are going to use his lifeline to help us out with this game. This is a game where we get the name of an actress. I've been playing just actresses lately because there's just lots of great actresses out there that we
Starting point is 01:05:11 never come up on the show. Because when I say name an actor, people just go, Nicolas Cage. And I love Nicolas Cage, but I can kill everybody in Nicolas Cage at this game. I can kill everybody in Nicolas Cage at this game. We're going to get... Murder them. We're going to get Guy Branum's lifeline, his person, his person he's playing for. Who is that again? Is it Dengans and Dingans?
Starting point is 01:05:36 I have to tell you, at this moment, I really wish I had picked Susan. Because I feel like Susan would give us a nice nice reasonable answer and I don't know how far I can trust Dangens and Dangens. Well, we need a fast version of this game anyway because we're
Starting point is 01:05:53 running out of time. So what I will do is in a moment I'll get a suggestion from Dangens and Dangens and then we will I'll talk to that damn Dangens and we will get a name of an actress. He's thinking about it hard right now, I'm sure. And then, I like to play along on this one.
Starting point is 01:06:12 The five of us will take turns naming movies that that particular actress has been in. And if you can't think of one, you're out. But you do get help from the person whose name tag you chose. That's your lifeline. You can ask them to help you out once, whenever, at any point, as long as you're still in the game.
Starting point is 01:06:30 Don't lose and then come back and say, I'd like to use my lifeline, because that's weird. We start, and then we're going to start with Guy. In what order were we going on before? Just flip it, so we come the other way. So Guy, Paul, Kate, I play along on this one. But I can't win. I'm ineligible to win. And then Brian. Ding and
Starting point is 01:06:52 dang and doongan. What have you got for us? Michelle Rodriguez? Michelle Rodriguez. You know, I was saying we're in a hurry. We need to wrap this up. And you came to my rescue. in a hurry, we need to wrap this up, and you came to my rescue. For a second, I thought you might go Tilda Swinton.
Starting point is 01:07:10 She's a popular one amongst people who are ding-ing or dung-ing, but Michelle Rodriguez, that's a real, that's a pull right there. That is going to be interesting. I don't have a guess of what any of her movies are called. No, I do know. I'm thinking of a few, but this is a tough one.
Starting point is 01:07:36 This should be a quick nine-title wrap-up. I mean, nine titles, I'd be impressed by that based on, I think, other panels that I've had on this show aren't as aren't as good as this group here coming up with Michelle Rodriguez movies let's see how we do guys start us off first of is drunk driving a movie. I know sometimes they make you watch a movie if you get caught doing it. All right, I will go with The Fast and the Furious.
Starting point is 01:08:17 Fast and the Furious? Yes. Okay. Got to get that ampersand in there. Got to. Paul? Oh, we're changing the order? I thought we were going to, yeah.
Starting point is 01:08:29 Okay, I'm happy with it. We switched it. I'm going to say Too Fast, Too Furious. Yes. Don't say the third one, Kate. I'll just tell you that right now. I was going to say, Johnner, can you help me out on this one? Oh, you're already going to Johnner.
Starting point is 01:08:45 Yeah, I got nothing. All right, Johnner, give her something helpful that Michelle Rodriguez has done. I recall her in Blue Crush. Blue Crush, the surfing movie. Yeah, thanks, Johnner. Blue Crush.
Starting point is 01:08:58 Very good. Good answer, Kate. Thank you. You're so good at this. All right. You sound like a wistful old man on a park bench. I recall her in Blue Cross. My turn.
Starting point is 01:09:16 Fast five. Brian. Dungeons and Dragons. Ha ha. Dungeons and Dragons. He's right there! Just saw it. That's crazy.
Starting point is 01:09:29 Oh, I forgot. I saw that in the theater. Dan, help me out here. Okay, Dan. Resident Evil? Resident Evil. Yeah, sure. Sounds right. That's right, right, Brian?
Starting point is 01:09:40 Which one? Is she in the first one? Oh, first one. Oh! Who's up? Whose turn is it? Who looks like they're thinking the hardest? Is it me? I'll go.
Starting point is 01:09:59 Fast X! The most recent of the Fast and Furious films. Did you think of anything else, Kate? Fast 9? It's called... The ninth installment of the Fast... It is called Fast 9, isn't it? No, I think it's called Furious 9.
Starting point is 01:10:20 Something about the Fast... The Fine and the Niniest? The Fast... Something about the Fast Saga or something like that. Okay, so Kate's still in. I'm going to go with... I'm going to say Furious 7. Brian?
Starting point is 01:10:38 Five. I said Fast Five. Oh, six. Six. What'd they call that one? Fast Six. I think that was Fast and Furious Six. Sure.
Starting point is 01:10:55 But yeah, exactly. Guy? I don't know what the name of the Fast Eight is. Oh, it's a good one. Yeah, it's a shame. I don't know what the name of the fast eight is. So I am. Oh, it's a good one. Yeah, it's a shame. Oh, it's probably some sort of. Yeah, it is.
Starting point is 01:11:14 Oh, it is Fate of the Fury. Yes. Yes. Nice. Wow. Did you do that one, Paul? Yes, I did know that one. Anytime they... The Eight of the Furious.
Starting point is 01:11:31 Not since the seven have I seen a number just crammed into a title. Anytime the movies delve into vanity license plate territory, it's bad news. Alright. license plate territory, it's bad news. All right. Have you used your lifeline yet?
Starting point is 01:11:51 I haven't. Oh, so you got that as an option. Susan, are you out there? He's desperate, Susan. And remember, your name tag is a phone. Don't you ever forget it. Hobbs and Shaw? Hobbs and Shaw.
Starting point is 01:12:06 Hobbs and Shaw? I want to say... She might as well be in that. I want to say The Faster the Furious presents Hobbs and Shaw. Yes! Title corrected.
Starting point is 01:12:18 Excellent. Thank you, Susan. She was in that movie. No, she wasn't. Oh, no. That's when he gets all golem. She was in that movie. No, she wasn't. Oh no, that's when he gets all Gollum. She was in that movie. Oh yeah,
Starting point is 01:12:32 I just realized when you said Dungeons and Dragons, you meant the more recent one, not the Tom Hanks TV movie. That was Mazes and Monsters. Thank you. I wouldn't have said that. I want to say, was Michelle Rodriguez in Jennifer's Body?
Starting point is 01:12:54 No. Okay, I'm out. Brian? What was her first movie? Oh, right. Mm-hmm. He knows. It's not kids, is it?
Starting point is 01:13:05 No. Maybe. No. I'm out. Imagining on the screen, introducing Michelle Rodriguez. Yeah. Now, that would have been my guess, but I know it's not right. All right. I just remember having watched so many movies.
Starting point is 01:13:20 Oh, yeah. Oh, shit. Whoa, Guy hasn't come to his lifeline yet? Yeah, what's my lifeline? Oh, Brian hasn't used Brian. Yeah, I haven't. Holy shit. What an exciting development. Do you know her first movie, or can you think of another?
Starting point is 01:13:33 I can't tell everyone. What do you got? Machete. Oh, fuck yeah. Machete. Yeah, yeah. Yes. Machete.
Starting point is 01:13:41 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Excellent. Nice. That is a good one. Machete. That is a good one that is a good one that is a good one I have nothing like so frequently I will watch a movie and there is a character who defies our understanding of gender
Starting point is 01:13:58 and I'll be like who was that and the answer is Michelle Rodriguez but I know I don't remember any of those movies I mean she's really dedicated a lot of time being Fast and Furious. But, you know, I think I thought of a gateway to some more titles. But, Paul, do you have anything else? You thought of a gateway? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:14:18 I'm going to take a chance here because I have not seen either film. I'm going to say Machete Kills. Why not, right? She has to be in it. Yeah, for sure. Brian? No, that was what I was going to go for.
Starting point is 01:14:34 Oh, shit. I think I'm out still. Out still? Well, I was out until my friend Brian saved me. Yeah, you're re-out. I'm re-out. You're re-out. Oh, now-out. You're re-out. So...
Starting point is 01:14:46 Oh, now we come to Doug with his famous gateway. Oh, you know, she's in a lot of... Like, isn't she in Spy Kids and other things that Robert Rodriguez... Like, if you name a Robert Rodriguez movie, isn't there a good chance she's in it? Like, she's been in a few of his things, hasn't she? I don't actually know. Yeah, I think she has. I think she's in a Spy Kids. I think she's in a Once Upon a Time in Mexico, maybe. No, why don't you name five? Did I say I had five? Hollywood legend is that she tested for Lava Girl. Paul, I'm sorry.
Starting point is 01:15:29 I have a slow five. It's going to take me a while, unfortunately. But congratulations, Paul F. Tompkins. You win. You, what a badge of honor you can wear. That you knew more Michelle Rodriguez movies than four other white people. You squeaked it, and you got to do your plugs first.
Starting point is 01:15:54 What would you like to promote? Oh, well, let me tell you, folks. I do a live variety show called Varietopia, which is comedy and music and everything else. Thank you for being aware of it. The next shows are going to be in October at the Bell House,
Starting point is 01:16:12 my favorite venue. The early shows are sold out. Late shows, still some tickets left. That is October 14th and the 15th. Lovely time to be in the New York area. And then back in LA, December,
Starting point is 01:16:29 I think it's 17th at lodge room in Highland park. So they go, wait, also we're doing, I forgot these, these other shows are happening right here at dynasty typewriter on Thursday, the 21st, we're going to do the neighborhood. Listen live.
Starting point is 01:16:40 We've started recording that podcast again. And then, um, I don't even know if this is on the calendar yet, but mark your calendars, calendar havers. October 9th, we are doing our second Super Ego Wild Horses collaboration. We were supposed to do right before shutdown,
Starting point is 01:17:01 right before quarantine. We're going to improvise a murder mystery. The show is called Whom Has Done It? And so that's going to be here, and these shows will be live-streamed as well. So there you go. Thank you, Paul F. Tompkins. Sixth ever guest on the show.
Starting point is 01:17:23 What? You were. All right. I just remembered that. Fun show. What? You were. All right. I just remembered that. Fun stat. I was going through. I was just going through in my head all 783 people who have been on the show. Sure, sure.
Starting point is 01:17:35 And I realized you were on the sixth episode. So roughly October, November, something like that. 17 years ago. I mean, it is the time when we were supposed to wrap it up. So a lot of these things are automated now. And they don't have a person up there. And the show was supposed to end right there. It's almost like, this is boring.
Starting point is 01:18:12 I'll end this boring show. We still got to do everybody else's plugs. Paul did his. Brian Fosain. The new Metalocalypse movie, I helped Bren Brendan Small write it so that's out for streaming
Starting point is 01:18:27 and we didn't get to promote it at Comic Con because of stuff and then if you like comic books I have a bunch out and coming out my latest is called Scotch McTiernan vs. The Forces of Evil
Starting point is 01:18:42 and I got a thing called Grommets coming out through image comics and then thing called rifters through image comics. That's it. That's enough. Guy Branum, the run came to an end, but what a glorious one it's been.
Starting point is 01:18:59 It's been a magnificent time. Thank you so much for having me so much. I will again say, if you haven't watched platonic, watch platonic on Apple Plus. And as you guys all know that I have now consumed all of Sarah Pauly's work. If you have strong opinions or readings, come to me on Twitter or Instagram with what you think Take This Waltz was about.
Starting point is 01:19:21 That's a wild movie. It really is. In the end, it was lovely. In the end, it was lovely. Yeah. Silverman was a fucking loaded shotgun the entire time. You're like, what's this character doing here? And then when she does it, you're like, boom.
Starting point is 01:19:36 I'll stop now. We have to leave. Kate Micucci. I have a kid's album coming out November 3rd, and I'm going to be releasing singles along the way. And the first one is out already. It's a song about Mr. Rogers. And the next song comes out next Friday, and it's called Bucket of Beans.
