Hey everybody, just a quick reminder that the episode that we did live from Dynasty
Typewriter last Saturday is now available to watch at dynastytypewriter.com for a mere
$15.
And I'm excited to say that the 12 Guests of Christmas will be back this year on Monday,
December 15th, also at Dynasty Typewriter, and it will also be live streamed for your
visual enjoyment.
But have a good time with this one that you can only hear. Doug hates candy wrappers screening baby sticky seeds
with 50 as in hot pork kernels.
In his teeth, there's still not one that he won't see,
but Doug loves movies.
Hey, hey, hey everybody.
My name is Doug and I love movies.
I do a whole thing at the beginning saying just sit back and don't do anything.
But again, I appreciate the
enthusiasm. There's two more of those.
So good luck.
Ha ha ha ha.
Ha ha ha.
Yeah, so anyway,
we're coming to you once again
on preview night of
Comic Con from the American Comedy
Company in sweet Home San Diego!
Nice, nice, nice.
It's Wednesday, July 23rd, 2025.
Before I bring my guests out, we gotta do Doug Plugs. I'll be doing stand-up comedy sets in LA at places
like Catalina Jazz Club and Cucabrera Club next week, so if you're in the area, try to
find me somewhere. And of course, I'll be back here at American Comedy Company for my annual standup show
on the night before Thanksgiving, November 26th.
Yeah, mark your calendars.
They say put your phones away,
but if you wanna take them out and make a note of that date,
I wouldn't get mad at you.
The next Vincent movie interruption is on August 5th in downtown, at Dynasty Typewriter.
I wrote DT.
I thought it meant downtown.
No, it's near downtown at Dynasty Typewriter in LA.
For all of my dates and deets and links, go to douglovesmovies.com.
That's douglovesmovies.com.
Yeah!
Kaká!
Lollipop!
Ted Danson?
Ted Danson? I love it when we do that here
because I can point to the eagle
which this is the origin
of where the Kaká came from.
I don't know where Ted Danson came from.
Shh.
I don't know where that came from. I don't know where Ted Danson came from. I don't even know where that came from. But
I'll always know caca thanks to Edward the Eagle right here behind me just looking over
my shoulder the entire time reading my script. Let's look at the prize bag, shall we? It
script. Let's look at the prize bag, shall we? It is a limited edition Douglas movies tote and it has in it, this is going to blow your minds, from Swiss Force, an automatic, motorized, I don't know what the right word is for it, but opens up wine bottles.
No, I knew the corkscrew, I know that word.
But if you just have to charge it and then it works with a motor, you'd call it motorized, a motorized wine opener.
Whatever it is, it's high tech as fuck.
Yeah!
Yeah!
Speaking of high tech, from my friends at Peacemaker Gear,
this beautiful, everyone loves a dumb giant water bottle these days,
and this one's really really
sturdy and beautiful and it feels it feels like a bong basically it feels
like you're holding a bong and you can just pretend that's what you're doing
you know if you get high and go to the park now also also in the bag I'm gonna
take one I brought an extra tote bag because I wanted to give someone to a friend of mine.
On the floor is a pin, it's a Doug Benson pin.
Then we have a Doug Loves Movies pin and also a pipe from Peacemaker that has only been used once.
Yeah, that long ass drive from LA. Yeah! All right, are you ready to meet our
guests tonight?
I'd call this crew a real motorized, motorized corkscrew. If I could say it that's what I would call them.
Please give it up everybody for Macon Blair, Amy Miller and Chad Opitz. I did that from memory. Oh, hi everybody.
What's up?
Hey, dad.
Let's meet them individually, alphabetically. Yes.
My first name.
Fuck yeah.
She's sitting right to my left, everybody.
It's Amy Miller.
Ha ha. to my left everybody it's Amy Miller. Cacaw. It's fun to do.
It really is. It's a fun noise to make. It's a fun noise to spell. Would you go C or K?
To spell it?
Or one of each?
I would spell it C-A-C-A-W, caca.
Yeah, that works for me.
Somebody's microphone's got like,
like if you're just the way you're holding it
is making noise somehow, but I don't know.
They're very beautiful.
I think it's Chad's.
I do want to.
See, you hear that?
Yeah, there's a little bit of knock around to it.
Chad's got a hot cord.
It's not hot, it's lumpy.
His cords got like a knot in it or a kink in it.
That's what I've heard.
So yeah.
Yeah.
All right.
Those are gonna be fun watching him maintain that position.
It's mine too. It really makes me wanna watching him maintain that position. Oh, it's mine too.
It really makes me want to sing.
The entire show.
Yeah, these are hot new gold mics.
Yeah, these mics are crazy.
You know, I thought they'd start, you know, just moving on to the cordless.
I like the cords normally because cordless mics, you know, they could just go out at any point.
They're garbage.
Especially if you scream into them.
Yeah.
And that's part of the fun of amplification.
Which you know I do.
Is being able to scream into it.
But Amy, where are you at with the new Superman?
Shamefully haven't seen it yet.
I'm seeing it tomorrow night. I'm sorry. I
started with shame. I really want to see it. You brought it up. You could have just been like I
can't wait to see it. Seeing it tomorrow night. I've been very busy and then you
know I'm I'm in a couple and it's like a movie we're saving and then that shit
takes a month for some time
I hate that shit. Yeah, just go see it by yourself. It's pretty fast. It came out like last Thursday
Okay, only a week it's just a week. Okay. Yeah, he's worth it has anything been spoiled
Nothing's been spoiled so far. Did you see the trailer except that all those people adopted those doggies?
Yeah, do you guys know about that? Because Crypto the dog is so cute in
Superman, people like like people contacting shelters to get a dog like
skyrocketed. 500% increase. Yeah it's crazy increase of people calling in
saying they want a dog. You know, hopefully a lot of that will turn into new happy homes, but that's why they
impound in the first place a lot of times because people don't accept the full responsibility
of doggie ownership and then they bail on it.
Yeah.
I wish it was that easy to get rid of babies.
All right. also joining us.
It's harder than ever in this country, Doug.
Yay.
Okay.
What am I, our crank gankers?
All right, so damn, I got such cotton mouth.
Let's get him, let's also talk to him, everybody.
It's Chad Opitz!
Hey! Hello.
How's it going, Chad?
Good. I saw Superman yesterday.
See? That's the kind of panelists I'd normally have on this show.
Oh, my God.
And there's a lot of doggy mayhem.
It's like a Beethoven sequel, essentially. There's so much doggy mayhem. It's like a Beethoven sequel, essentially.
There's so much doggy mayhem in there.
First of all, the dog is a little asshole,
which is hilarious.
And then 500% like, we gotta get this asshole dog.
He needs to be trained, but how do you train a dog
that can just murder you easily?
Or just lift you up by, fly around the room with you,
or fly right into space with you hanging on.
You're fucked.
That dog better like you.
In the movie, I think he likes Superman and that's how he treats him.
He's biting the shit out of him, pouncing on him all the time.
With girl dogs, I get it. With boy dogs, they have genitals.
Don't they know not to just stomp on genitals?
How badly that would hurt?
Don't they have personal experience?
Girl dogs have genitals, Doug?
Right.
Right?
I just mean, I'm just saying,
you'd think a dog would know what nuts are
on whatever species it happens to be,
and know that's not a great place
to just suddenly stomp for no reason.
Other than, I guess there is a reason,
now that I think of it.
This actually makes me feel good.
A dog hates me.
I'm happy because you sometimes take care of my dog,
and I'm glad you haven't noticed
that she has a massive vagina.
That makes me feel like she's very safe. Yeah I haven't spent any time. But also in my defense.
No and you don't need a defense. Your dog doesn't sit vagina up that much. So I don't really get like the bird's eye view.
You guys don't do belly rubs over there?
Oh, I guess there's belly rubs, but I'm a gentleman about it.
I love that about you.
I mean, that's the crazy thing about dogs is Ruby is very boy like Ruby's ruffian. Yeah, Ruby is always up for a good time.
She's scrappy. Always up for a good time.
I've never seen her in a bad mood.
All right.
Aw.
Yeah, right?
She likes you.
Yeah, but she's a happy, happy-ass dog.
Must be the huge genitals.
Chad, we were done talking, right?
Yeah, we were.
I think so.
Yeah.
We learned a lot during that time.
All right.
I'm so excited about our next guest.
You've seen him in Oppen-fucking-heimer, Blue Room, Green Room,
and he's the writer slash director of the new The Toxic Avenger in theaters August 29th. It's Macon Blair!
Thank you very much.
So you're going to have to probably spend the next few days talking about Toxic Avenger.
Undoubtedly.
Have you worked out your basic spiel?
I got, it's kind of, you get the same questions so so you end up giving the same answers, so yeah.
Yeah, so the question everyone will ask you is.
Why did you make this movie?
Oh.
Shit, I think mine's even worse or more obvious.
OK, go ahead.
What is this movie?
Tell everybody about it who may not
be familiar with the original and the fact that this one has one of the greatest actors.
Yes, very good. This is a remake of the 1984 schlock classic, The Toxic Avenger.
The new version is sort of a retelling of the story of a guy who falls into toxic waste, gets big muscles,
of a guy who falls into toxic waste, gets big muscles, uses them to fuck up bad guys, and the new version stars
Peter Dinklage in the titular role.
Yeah.
Woo!
Oh.
Oh.
But it's because of the nuclear waste sludgy stuff, right,
that he's toxic, not that he's a sexist individual no he like you
he is a gentleman it's a chemical distinction that's what we're talking
and it theaters very soon August 29th is to nine yeah so I was excited to find out that you were you know going to be down here
for Comic-Con and the fact that you do have to be here tonight because your
radio interviews start first thing in the morning or just media in general
media in general all sorts of stuff but this was I was delighted to be asked to be here. I'm a big fan Doug. Nice! Aww!
Hey!
Aww!
I will say the same when I've seen Toxic Avenger.
You don't have to if you don't mean it.
I cannot comment at this time.
There you go.
But I'm very excited to see it. Did it premiere at Fantastic Fest?
Yeah, nine years ago.
Holy shit.
No, no, no, it was four years ago.
And then it went around the block a couple of times.
It did feel like it took a minute.
That's why I forgot.
No, it was in the Phantom Zone for a minute.
But now Cineverse has it, and they're putting it out
with a lot of love.
So I was happy to wait in the long run.
That is amazing. But that also is quite a weight
Yeah, it took a minute. It was nerve-racking in the age of you know
Coyote and acne and batgirl and things getting zazz labbed and disappeared, you know
now it's a
It's a verb being zazz left. I can say that it is. Oh my god. Look at that guy in the corner
He's zaz-laughing.
Let's make sure nobody sees Coyote versus Roadrunner movie.
But we are going to see it though, right?
Didn't they say that?
Look, oh, that's right.
It is coming.
Anyways, it was nerve-racking.
But we came out ahead.
So we're ready for everything.
Yes, Toxic Avenger.
We'll mention it again at the end of the show
so when people are finishing up their listen,
they will be reminded of it.
And what about Superman for you?
Have you seen it?
Hell yeah, it was awesome.
Took my kids.
The dog stole the show.
I'm super excited that dog's going to get his own movie.
I hope he gets his own fucking movie.
I'll see that one first day, man.
I think it's on the board. I think crypto like that movie just called
crypto I think it's happening and of course he'll be in Supergirl because
it's alright so I almost gave something away but probably still did but you know
it's been this won't come out till Monday so people have had two
whole weekends to see it they can get caught up yep yeah also though like
that's the thing is it is fun that there are some twists and turns in it that are
you know maybe a little bit unexpected because like you know with a comic book
movie and especially Superman like I've seen a little bit of whining about how
the movie just jumps right to Superman's been
Clark Kent for like three years, and I thought that was the most brilliant fucking idea
I agree we don't need to see him leave in space again. We know what it is
and you know just like they said it says it on the card and
People who come in late say what is this movie? I don't understand what's happening
No story of Superman. I love how also tossed off it is he's like,
he's got special glasses so that people don't recognize him.
That's canon. That's canon.
Yeah, but you know what I mean? It's just tossed off in the movie.
Like, we're not going to belabor it, but isn't that amazing?
Just accept this.
That's like, yeah, you could just, it's just like in a movie now when it's like,
there's a reason someone's cell phone's not going to work. You know, you just,
they just say it real quickly and then, okay, so they can't use a cell phone.
Well, it also, it cuts all the complaints about,
like, it's bullshit that they wouldn't recognize.
I'm like, no, man, it's the hypnoglasses, that's why.
Yeah, yeah, I love it.
I don't know, why didn't earlier iterations
go with the hypnoglasses?
Like, why didn't Christopher Reeve have hypnoglasses?
He just did it with his posture, man.
He really did, he really, he sold the, he just did it with his posture, man. He really did.
He really, he sold this.
He's still my favorite Superman.
Me too.
I gotta say, but I don't think David Cornsweat
would be mad that, he'd probably be more mad at me
how I just pronounced his name.
Ha ha ha.
Before we play some games today,
I would like each of my guests to recommend a movie.
Now it doesn't have to be a comic book movie even though that's sort of the
overarching theme of this evening. It could be any movie but what would you
like to recommend Amy? Oh last night I watched Pavements which is a documentary
about the band Pavement and it's very good it's very interesting I don't
really want to give anything away because it's a did you see it it's a
it's a pretty crazy format that is meta but then you're not sure if you're but
if you're being tricked or not and it's hard to explain but it is as pretentious
as that band and you'll love it. No, I really enjoyed it.
It's called, the band's called Pavement, but the movie's called Pavement.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Pavement.
Pavement.
It's in a few theaters right now, but I had to get, oh, I had to get Mubi.
Now I have Mubi.
Never had it before.
Oh, that's how you saw Pavements?
Yeah.
You had to get it for Pavements?
It was only on Mubi.
It was only on Mubi?
What is, is there a monthly for Mubi?
Yeah, it's $14.99, but I'm gonna cancel before my trial's over.
Yeah.
I got a week.
Do you think it's called movie just because it just sounds like you're saying movie essentially?
Yeah, Doug loves movies.
I do. I do love movies.
The biggest movies I could find.
Because everybody always says in the theme song it sounds like Chris is singing boobies.
Yeah.
It's fun.
It's fun.
Yeah.
You know.
Moobies.
Fun for all ages.
What were we talking about?
Pavements.
Oh, pavements.
And it's in some theaters.
I'd like to see that in a theater, I think.
Yeah, I was playing at a couple spots in LA, but not that often, so we just got movie.
OK.
I'm not sponsored by movie.
I keep bringing it up.
I've got a new game that I play when
I watch something on any of those kind of things.
Like I've watched stuff on Tubi and Pluto
and several other planets, former planets.
But those things, I like watching movies that way because the commercials just come in so
randomly and I'll just, I'll get up and do something.
You know what I mean?
If I'm watching a movie where there's no commercials, I'll just fall asleep and miss the whole goddamn
movie.
But if I'm watching it in six or seven minute increments, and then it'll come up and it'll
say, commercials, this is commercial one out of seven.
And you're like, oh, fucking seven commercials.
I'm brushing my teeth. But now I get that I got the 2B theme song stuck in my head because it's just 2B 2B.
I didn't know they had a theme song.
That's the thing is it's so fast.
It's so it's just so calming.
I don't get it.
How does it go again? Why is it on why is it when you're about when a show's
about to start on Hulu there's this music that goes like it's the most
dreary like it'll be Martin Short jumping around only murders well yeah I
guess all these things have to have their little sound bites, but it's dooby dooby. I mean, that's what happens on the screen is it's not a person's face, but if it was,
that's what it would, that's what the shapes are doing is it's just good.
Doesn't it feel good to sing it into this mic?
I love it.
This beautiful mic.
I would spin my chair around for you if we were on the voice.
I'm gonna fess up. I called ahead and said if I don't have a gold mic this time I'm walking.
Fuck you. Fuck your goddamn eagle. But yeah, this microphone was a pleasant surprise.
And the mics all sound better now, right?
Well, no, we're just not...
We're just awkwardly never moving.
You're just all so still.
It's not good.
I'm over here having a blast with all this movement that I can do.
Because you have a stand.
Well, I always ask for a stand because I need to write stuff down.
How about this?
Oh, that actually helps.
Over the shoulder.
Chad, wear it like a scarf.
Perfect.
This is like, feels Scottish to me for some reason.
I don't know why.
That's actually a lot better.
It is.
To be, to be.
Oh, but here's the other thing I was going to say about To Be.
To be, to be.
They, all of these services now, like, are so anxious to, like, get you to watch something else.
You know, if it's a series, they try to get you to watch the next episode. But if it's a movie, I'm always like, all right, let's see what they got.
Let's see what they think I should watch next.
And then if I agree with it, I'll go ahead and watch it.
But if I don't, I'll just laugh it off.
But it's a fun little game that I play.
I like it when it's done well in a genre,
because then that likely fits your mood.
If you're into a caper, and then there's another caper,
then you're like, fuck yeah.
But if it's just based on actor, then that sucks.
I watched a musical, and it ended.
And I was like, let's see what happens.
And they put on another musical, which is cool.
But also a musical I've never heard of that sounds insane.
It's about a group of like seven or eight people
who are trapped in a New York City subway car that
won't move and the doors won't open
and they won't let them smash the windows.
Like, that's explained very quickly.
They try to smash the windows, like,
don't smash the windows.
So...
You just can't. Don't ask why. You just can't.
No phones work down here.
And amongst this group of talented singer-dancers
trapped in a subway car
are Giancarlo Esposito,
Amy Madigan, and Ashanti.
Okay. Okay.
What? What is this called?
What is this movie? It's called Stuck.
Whoa.
And I was glued to it.
I didn't...
I don't know if it's good or bad.
I have no idea, because it was so audacious to just entirely take place in a subway car,
but then there's also singing and dancing and drumming and, you know, it's kind of like
an actual subway car ride.
Is everyone dancing, passing a hat for money just the whole time?
Oh my god, yeah, they just keep asking each other for money.
Because you know, everybody's got a number and there's a kid on there that's kind of
like a dear of enhancement kind of thing.
Jean-Carlo Esposito is a homeless man who's a little erratic.
Surprising to hear.
And Ashanti is just a bad bitch. a little erratic, surprising to hear.
And Ashanti is just a bad bitch.
This Asian girl and her get at it about race.
It's rough.
There's a scene that's really bloody and violent,
but the songs are mostly kind of cute.
It's a weird ass experience.
And the writer, director, and everybody involved in it,
I didn't recognize any of their names.
But I will look out for them.
It was an interesting experience.
All right, Chad, go.
I'm going to pick a movie Macon is in called Murder Party
from 2007.
You've not seen Murder Party.
It's from the same director of Blue Ruin and Greener Room,
but it's a totally different type of movie.
Totally very different, very funny, mostly comedy,
but also horror.
It doesn't have a color in the title.
It does not.
Murder, Red, maybe, but not.
Red, yeah, red is kind of in there.
Great movie.
A great Halloween movie, too.
Watch your own Halloween time.
How did he break the color thing?
What was the movie that broke it?
Was it?
Dark is a shade.
Hold the dark?
So hold the dark would be not really a color,
but a shade.
Dark.
I never thought of that.
But that was not deliberate,
the blue and the green thing,
that was entirely coincidental.
Right, cause the blue ruin came first, and green room was about a green room. And, because the Blue Ruin came first.
And Green Room was about a green room.
And he had thought of Green Room first,
but it was too expensive to make.
So he made Blue Ruin first without a title,
came up with the title late in the process,
and then went back to do Green Room.
So my point is valid.
So while shooting it, is it just coincidental that the movie kind of feels like there's a lot of blue on
screen like it's a blue tinted movie kind of? I mean the blue was definitely a
choice for the like color scheme of the movie but not relative to the title.
Yeah. It was big but we had like a spreadsheet of like 100 stupid titles,
and then that was one, and it's an old term
that means a debacle or a disaster
that I had never heard of,
and he just liked the way it sounded.
Yeah, no, it's definitely a cool title,
and also, you know, it gets you that thing
where you're towards the beginning of the alphabet. That's right, gets you right up there with the A movies. Yeah, when people are like, you know gets you that thing where you're towards the beginning of the alphabet. That's right get you right up there with the A movies. Yeah
people are like you know on the plane you open up the thing and there's 75 movies
but it starts at A. Also by design. I've got a lot of people are just stopping at
assassins. The first A movie I could think of. It's quite a mix though now when you go on a plane or something
like the variety of movies that they will put on there and now they suddenly
don't give a shit about if it's R-rated sometimes at the beginning it'll say you
know watch this with discretion like what am I supposed to do not go oh my
Like, what am I supposed to do? Not go, oh my.
Oh my god.
It's horrifying if there's kids around.
That's exactly it.
I didn't know recently, and then I
was watching Sex and the City, and I was like,
oh, it'll be the edited version.
And then I woke up, and it was just like full upside down
fucking Samantha just getting railed.
And I was like, sorry, kids.
Right next to me, I fell asleep.
And I didn't know they were gonna do that
to you but that's Samantha and she's a whore.
In a good way.
The best way.
Is like in Man Hunter when he has the homicide scene pictures
and disturbs the other kids.
That's where my mind went.
They should edit them.
Chad, tell us a little bit more about what you like
about Murder Party.
Murder Party, okay.
It's set in New York City on Halloween night
and there's a group of art students
that make a plan to make a perfect murder
and they're trying to get a grant from this benefactor.
The murder itself is gonna be an art project. And so they just put out all these random invites around the city and
they don't they don't even know if anyone will take it. But then this guy
who has nowhere to go he's like a single guy lives with his cat in a little
apartment and he finds and he's like, oh I guess I'll go to this party. And he shows up they
knock him out and they're like we're gonna turn your murder into a piece of
art. Yeah and then it goes off the rails.
Yeah, it's very fun.
Very funny.
It feels like that was where it went off the rails
was that moment,
not after that.
I mean, I'm sure maybe it goes even more off the rails.
It was off the rails from the moment when he showed up
with a thing that said if you come here, we'll kill you.
And he came to the place.
So he should have known better.
Yeah, that's fair.
All right.
And that's got to be available somewhere, right?
Yeah.
Zooby.
It's maybe, yeah, Zooby or Ruby.
It's on Flabo.
It's on the flabbo. I mean, at what point is there going to be a crossover?
There's going to be something that is a prescription drug and a streaming channel.
It's going to you, Macon,
for your first ever recommendation on Douglas movies.
I saw a movie last week
that might be my favorite one this year.
It was called Kill the Jockey.
And it's this weird, I would say it's like
if Lost Highway
was directed by maybe Wes Anderson,
like very stagey and stylized,
but it's this jockey, horse jockey,
does a ton of cocaine and is constantly drunk
and he drives his horse into a wall
and wakes up with a massive head injury
and kind of becomes this other
person and it's kind of hilarious and weird and also very beautiful and kind
of heartbreaking and just like kind of blew my mind I didn't really know
anything about it but I saw the trailer and it was one of those things where I
was like oh shit I want to see this movie didn't know the filmmaker anything
and just went to go see it in the theater.
My favorite thing I've seen all year.
All right.
Is there somebody who any actors in that we would know?
I didn't recognize the dude.
I looked him up afterwards.
He's done a lot of things.
It's an Argentinian movie.
I didn't recognize him by name.
But you know, he's like,
it was very Buster Keaton, very kind of like,
just all sort of like stone face type stuff.
It was a really cool performance.
I think you would dig it.
Right on, Kill the Jockey, and that's not even out yet.
It came out in 24, but it's doing theaters right now.
So I don't know when it's gonna be available
for streaming or DVD. Oh, it's doing a little circuit.
So yeah, just look for it wherever.
Yeah, but it's out there somewhere.
Yeah, wait for it wherever you get your movies.
I think the original title was El Jockey,
but in English, kill the jockey.
Yeah, English is just a little bit more descriptive. That kill the jockey. Yeah, English is just a little bit more descriptive.
That means the jockey.
What's potentially gonna happen.
How is the horse, is the horse okay?
I don't know.
Okay.
Wouldn't mind a little follow up on that.
You sure?
You sure he wasn't in the end credit scene?
Did you watch all the way to the end?
Yeah, where he's got all four legs up
and they're in bandages like this.
Yeah, he's like slurping a daiquiri.
Yeah.
Like, okay, the horse is all right.
He's gonna be okay.
All right, well thank you for those recommendations
and we're gonna play some games right after these messages.
We'll be right back.
Yeah.

Back to the show.
We're back!
Yay!
Oh boy, do we have fun during that commercial break.
That's why you gotta come see the show live.
Is all the commercial break fun?
During the break we chose name tags. Amy is playing for Allison versus
Predator. Yeah. Chad is playing for instead of the Meg. He made a very lovely
hat. And he's the Greg. And also speaking of hats,
making a hats.
Makin is playing for someone who brought a Yeti hat.
Is it okay if I just call you Yeti hat?
You know why your actual name mentioned?
Celine. That's my middle name.
I got excited.
It's rare. Is it not Celine? Yeah, fuck all y'all. All right, so from now on I'll call you Yeti, Celine, Hat. Like the Celine part is a nickname
There was the meat of it is the Eddie and hat. Okay, the first game we are gonna play today tonight is called
initial reaction
That's a great audience because most of them have never heard of this game.
It's a brand newish game and this is the first time we've played it in front of a live audience
and I'm very excited because here's how it's going to work.
I will say the initials of the title of a movie.
At that point, any one of you can guess what movie it is, if you can think of a movie
that has those initials.
Just go ahead and blurt it out.
But if after a few seconds nobody gets it,
then I'll tell you the top two billed stars of the film,
and that should solidify it, and one of you will pounce.
Can I ask a question?
Maybe more. At the end of the show.
So what we're going to do.
I'll ask you tomorrow.
No, what's the yeah.
Could you text it to me?
You probably can guess what it is,
but I've never played this game.
Are articles and prepositions included?
Whoa.
Whoa.
OK. Every word in the official title. OK, great. Whoa. Okay. Every word in the official title.
Okay, great.
Yeah, great question.
Thank you.
A lot of T's.
It could be, we'll see.
If you get it right, the first person to say it gets a point
and we'll do six rounds and if there's a tie at that point,
I've got a tie breaker.
Here we go. and we'll do six rounds and if there's a tie at that point I've got a tiebreaker.
Here we go. The first movie's initials. It's just people on stage and I know if you
think of it out there you're gonna be excited. So don't yell out. F, F.
Freaky Friday.
Back from the Furious.
What'd you say, Chad?
Fantastic Four.
That is correct.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Starring Miles Teller and Kate Mara.
Yeah.
Yeah. That one, the one that bombed was called Fantastic Four Know The.
So it was wild that you asked me that, Amy, about.
It was perfect.
Chad's on the board with one point.
Here we go, round two.
Oh, this is two letters again.
M. M.
Meteor Man.
Oh my God.
What a great film.
No.
It was a great guess though.
Monkey Man?
No.
Matchstick Man?
No. Mamma Mia. No. Matchstick Man? No.
Mamma Mia.
No!
That's MMPP.
Mamma Mia, Papa Pia?
That's the official full title.
Mad Max?
That's a good guess.
I wish I could do an impression of Pierce Brosnan saying,
Papa P- P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P Just Marley me? That's what you say to somebody if you want to cry.
If you feel like having a good cry.
Marley me.
No, not Marley me.
Alright, I'm going to tell you the actors.
That's going to give it away.
Ben Stiller and Janine Garofalo.
Mystery Man.
That is it, Chad.
Chad by a nose.
Nice. Chad by a nose. Nice.
Chad by a nose.
Anybody been out to Del Mar?
No?
Good for you.
Good.
Don't go.
It's bad.
It's torture.
All right.
I used to go when I was a kid.
Because gambling.
All right.
I was a kid. Because gambling. All right. I was into it.
I've been on every race.
All right.
So yeah, you get an adult to go up to the window,
but they'll give you the money if they're cool.
Just do it, man.
Like if you're related to them.
All right.
This is one letter.
Hope I can pronounce it correctly.
B. Batman. Blade. I like both those guesses. Barbarella. Both of those
incorrect guesses. Oh that's another good one. Barfly. No. Bananas. Bananas. No, we have no bananas.
We have no bananas today.
Alright, here come the actors.
Damon Wayans.
Blank Man.
So good.
Oh shit.
Oh shit, Chad's running away with this one.
All right.
Blink, man.
From 1994.
The next one is another single letter, S.
Slender? Ooh. Thatender. Slender. Slender. Slender.
Slender.
Slender.
Slender.
Slender.
Slender.
Slender.
Slender.
Slender.
Slender.
Slender.
Slender.
Slender.
Slender.
Slender.
Slender.
Slender.
Slender.
Slender.
Slender.
Slender. Slender. Sl was your thought bubble. Sybil.
Sybil. Ooh, that's a good guess.
I'm just saying stuff now.
What can you think of NES movies?
Superman.
Yeah, I was shocked that that was sort of the trap.
Shocker?
Shocker's a good guess.
Shocker's a good guess.
Sharknado?
Superman sequels? That's a good guess. You don't want to guess any Superman sequels? That's a good guess.
Sharknado. I would never. You will never hear Sharknado. What about Super? That is
correct!
All right I've given that one to Chad. Chad's the winner, everybody. Big surprise.
But yeah, they're all, you know, like superhero comic booky things, but...
Not so superheroes.
Some more obscure ones for sure.
This next game, and all Chad wins, by the way, is he gets to go first in this next game.
Or I should say, has to go first.
We'll start with, in this game, we'll start with Chad, then we'll go to Macon and then to Amy.
And this game is called, in honor of our guest today, and in honor of Toxic Avenger, featuring the great Kevin Bacon.
This game is called Makin' Bacon.
Ooh.
Yeah, I like that.
Makin' Bacon.
Nice.
Nice.
Did you get to know Kevin pretty well, working with him?
Yeah, yeah, he was game to be.
It's a very silly movie.
And so it was fun encouraging everyone to just dial it up
to 11.
And he was really up for it.
So that was a lot of fun to see.
Yeah, he's done some really fun things.
But we won't talk about any of his movies.
Because in this game, I will name a movie and whoever's turn it
is has to tell me if that movie does or does not have bacon in it
specifically Kevin Bacon he's been in a lot of movies and you know we can't all know every movie that Kevin Bacon's been in.
But it's still a 50-50 shot every time. So like I said, we'll start with Chad.
And good luck.
The first movie is Hero at Large.
The first movie is Hero at Large.
Bacon or no bacon?
I'm going to say no bacon. That sounded like an order in a bodega.
That's a big sandwich, hero.
Do you want bacon or no bacon on that big ass sandwich?
I'm going to say no bacon on Hero at Large. We have the big sandwich, hero. Hero at large. Do you want bacon or no bacon on that big ass sandwich?
I'm gonna say no bacon on hero at large.
We have the big ass sandwich meats.
Yeah.
What'd you say?
No bacon.
Oh, it's got bacon.
It's got bacon in it?
Oh hell yeah, it's got bacon.
I did not know that.
He played second teenager.
Whoa, okay.
Oh yeah. Yeah, okay. Oh, yeah.
Yeah, so...
Definitely has bacon.
All right.
Bacon.
Ha ha ha ha.
Bacon or no bacon, bacon?
Yeah.
Ha ha ha ha.
Ha ha ha ha.
The demon Murder Case.
The title of the movie is The Demon of Murder Case.
The Demon Murder Case.
The Demon Murder Case.
Even better.
Yeah, that has bacon.
It does have bacon in it.
Wow.
Holy crap.
We're making bacon.
He plays Kenny.
I know.
You were familiar with that movie?
Yeah.
Oh my god.
You're going to kill this game.
Oh my God, you're gonna kill this game. Yeah. Oh my God.
If you knew he was in that, and you knew he played Kenny,
what was his last name? Smith.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I forgot it, but it did say, it was like Falkner or something.
All right.
Shut up, Kenny.
Amy, it's your turn, Amy.
Your movie is bacon or no bacon?
R-I-P-D.
Okay, Doug.
Much like my mom's potato salad.
Yes, bacon.
Oh, some of the audience got sad.
Your mom's potato salad does not have bacon.
So you're saying that there's bacon in RIPD?
I think so, yes, there's bacon.
You're saying that vegetarians should avoid RIPD at all costs?
They should just stonk out of the movies.
Yes, Kevin Bacon is in RIPD. That is correct.
Yes. Yes, Kevin Bacon is in our IPD. That is correct.
Yes.
Amy and Bacon are both on the board.
We're back to you, Chad.
This is your chance.
I feel very strongly that you'll do well with this one.
Bacon or no bacon, hollow man.
We got bacon in that one.
That is a lot of bacon.
A lot of bacon.
We get naked bacon.
Extra bacon.
We get invisible bacon.
That's my grandma's potato salad.
Extra bacon.
Oh my god, we got a three-way tie going.
This is so exciting.
But I think make is going to get the next point for sure,
because it's bacon or no bacon, super.
No bacon.
That's so exciting.
There was a guy in the audience who was like, no, I can't, so please don't do that again.
But you were wrong also.
Shame on me.
Yeah, he's, you know, the very thing you were just talking about, he's really, plays a real
weirdo in Super, the James Gunn, Rainn Wilson movie that if people watch it on a double bill with Superman,
they're going to lose their minds because it is very disturbing.
We are on to Amy, the next title.
X-Men United.
I mean, yes, bacon.
I have no idea.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, Amy, because there is no bacon.
X-Men United.
He was in X-Men First Class. The nerd in the middle knew that one.
He played Sebastian Shaw of the Hellfire Club.
Isn't it weird how close that is to Sebastian Stan?
They're not related.
All right.
Shaw.
What just happened?
Oh. Do we have a three-way tie or? Yeah, because you didn't get that one.
All right, so this is perfect because we go to Chad and this will determine if you win or not today. This game anyway. Tremors 2 aftershocks. Sadly it's not no bacon. There's
no bacon in there. It's so sad and you are so right. That is correct. There's no bacon.
He didn't mess with the Tremors sequel. It came back for like a reboot of it eventually, but the sequels were all straight to video.
Did you know that?
There was no other-
There was like a Western one and shit?
Yeah.
They didn't go theatrical with those.
So congratulations.
Once again, Chad has won another game.
Well done, Chad.
Well done, Chad.
He done did it. And we are going to settle this thing though.
He gets to go first in our third and final game this evening and we will play after this
break.
Be right back!

I could have taken that entire break to drink and you know hydrate and you know
take care of my cotton mouth and instead I spent the entire time yapping about
crypto which means a new thing now you know what I mean I saw a guy in a bar
and he wouldn't shut up about crypto. The coins? No, the dog. Spelled different.
All right, we got one game left to play
that's gonna decide it all.
It's gonna determine which person goes home
with the prize bag.
Is it gonna be Allison versus Predator?
Is it gonna be the Greg?
Or is it gonna be Yeti Celine Hat?
Hat.
Hat.
Hat.
Yeti Celine Hat.
Any one of them can go home
just because of their personal ingenuity.
Right, two people went to work and made art. personal ingenuity. Right?
Two people went to work and made art.
And another person brought the right hat.
The perfect right hat.
So good luck to everybody.
Chad goes first in our final game
and it's something that I call the little search engine that could.
Here's how this works. I woke up this morning and I typed a word into the search engine on the IMDB, the Internet Movie Database. And then I wrote down the top 10 movies that have that word in the title.
Top 10 based on the algorithm and IMDB, which is just supposed to be a popularity thing.
I think it's the amount of time something's been searched for, but, you know,
interpret it however you like.
But the idea is the three of you
will take turns guessing movies that you think titles that might be in the top
ten that have that word in them and the higher up on the list it is the more
points you get you get ten points for number one one point for number ten and
then you know you can figure out how all the in-between points work. And, oh, and you can go to your lifeline once
at any point during the show, during this game,
and your lifeline is the person whose name tag you chose,
so it's the Greg, the Allison, and the Yeti.
That's pretty good.
Yeah, you can go to, you know, you go to your person.
You can't flip over to Yeti, Chad.
You got to stick with the Greg.
All right.
Since it is a superhero weekend, comic book weekend,
here in San Diego, and this episode comes out Monday after it's over
and everybody will be sick of hearing about them.
But for now, I thought a fun word to use
because it's obviously in some superhero titles.
The word is men.
Men.
Boo.
Yeah. Yes. This game, this game represents the patriarchy and it needs to be shut down.
But, uh. Activate the voodoo doll. Don't remind that guy. I'm just glad it, I don't think it looks like me based on his answer when asked if it looks like me.
Because he was just like, sure.
He's way smaller.
Yeah.
The doll is on Ozempic.
And it's shorter, Doug.
He's a lot shorter too. He's got it going in every direction. Who's first? Chad. Chad what's
your first guess? A movie with the word men in the title. I guess I'll go X-Men. Oh, this is mild surprise in the audience, but like I said there are
superhero movies with men in the title. That's why on the board with two points.
And now we go to Amy, because we flipped the old order around on this one.
Okay. I'm going to go with Men in Black.
That's good. That's good. Let me confer with the list and see if Ben and Black made it into the top four.
It is number four.
Seven points for Amy.
For Amy. Wow.
Megan, this is your first swing at it.
Don't forget, you can go to your lifeline at any point
if you think your lifeline might have something good early on.
And is it, I'm sorry, is it needs
to be in the superhero genre?
No, it does not.
No.
It does not.
I'm going to.
I mean, those guys are pretty cool, men in black.
But they're secret agents, not superheroes. I'm gonna... I mean, those guys are pretty cool in Men in Black, but...
Yeah.
They're secret agents, not superheroes.
Uh...
I'll try Men.
The movie that's just called Men?
Yeah.
Yeah, that wants his name wrote and directed?
Yeah, that guy.
Ha ha ha.
Yeah.
Alex Garland, right? Alex Garland, yeah. Yes. The great Alex Garland, right?
Alex Garland, yes. The great Alex Garland.
The screenplay for 28 Years Later is amazing.
Yeah.
Okay. I don't know how you did it.
It is number one on the list.
Oh!
APPLAUSE
Oh! Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Like, if you've seen other Alex Garland things, you know, Ex Machina, and you know, even 28
years later, none of that can prepare you for men.
It's really wild.
And not for everybody.
No.
But I did love 28 years later too, since you brought that up.
Yeah, yeah.
You know, I never got around to seeing Civil War.
I wasn't in the mood for it at the time, and it keeps getting worse.
Like, it keeps getting more like, well, I could just go outside. I could just find the nearest rally of some kind.
But I see people yelling at each other. But what's another? I mean, Alex Garland's just all home runs. What's another one that he did?
He wrote the new Judge Dread.
Right, I'm excited for that, for sure.
Ex Machina.
Yeah, I said Ex Machina.
And then, and then.
He did that show, Devs.
Oh, yeah, that's right.
Devs.
Not good.
One time during Comic-Con, I was staying in a hotel
where the hotel across the way the whole time just said devs and big letters
I was like I don't know what that is and I'm not convinced
Doesn't mean I'm gonna check it out. All right round two
starting with Chad
I'm gonna pick one of my favorite movies as children of men. I
Don't know if it'll be on there.
The great Michael Caine playing a long-haired stoner was very satisfying.
Michael Caine.
Some amazing stunt camera work and shit in that movie.
Really really good film.
Number five on the list.
Children of men, men, men children. Has anybody seen men
versus chicken? No. Is that a movie? Might be called men and chicken. It's either
and or versus. I'm they keep it in mind.
It's Mads Mikkelsen, who's a very committed actor.
And he and the other actors do the weirdest shit.
It is a very weird movie.
But I recommend it.
It's good weird.
Recommend it.
Weird. Recommended.
I wish I could give you some sort of point for that.
But there's no room on the score sheet for that sort of thing.
OK, so Amy, you're up.
Your second guess.
OK, I think the number is right,
but I'm gonna go 12 Angry Men.
Ooh, yeah.
That's good.
It's 12, right?
Now, why would it be more or less than 12?
You know what it's about, right?
Oh yeah, you're right.
Yeah, a soccer team, right?
Well, there could be, sometimes there's an alternate.
Would it be funny?
I wanna do an off-Broadway version of 12 Angry Men, but say, and an alternate. Would that be funny? I want to do an off-Broadway version of 12 Angry Men
and say, and an alternate.
And just have a guy sitting in the corner
that does not get to weigh in,
and when he tries to, they just yell,
shut up, Donnie.
And then people debate whether or not he even existed.
Have you heard that theory about Donnie and Big Lebowski?
That people think he's not real.
Whoa, he was out of his element,
because he's elements.
Elements.
I'm not even high.
That's what's crazy.
Well, you're in the lead.
That's what's crazy.
Hell, yeah.
But now here comes Macon.
He had all the bacon.
Monuments men.
Monuments men.
Bill Murray, George Clooney didn't make the list.
Damn.
Oh, no. Yeah.
It's still a very close game.
We have one round left. Amy gets to, or Chad rather, gets to try to
jump ahead of Amy.
He's got a total of eight, and Amy has 15.
Oh, I'm not winning this one.
So you need a big one.
I think you can do it.
I don't know, dude.
The only thing that's in my head now,
I mentioned it earlier, was...
Let me do it like we're on password.
It's not gonna work.
The word is...
Men.
I'm gonna say matchstick men.
I'm gonna say matchstick men that's what I said I said it earlier I don't
know if it's even on there I don't know I probably not you sure you don't want to
use your lifeline oh yeah you should probably do that but I already picked so
I can't do it with you I I thought you talked about match men earlier.
Yeah.
Match dick men.
Match dick men.
Yeah.
Well, what does your lifeline think?
Let's give your lifeline a shot here.
McGreg.
I don't know if I have better than that.
Or say another title.
He gets to pick which one he wants.
Men Who Stare at Goats.
He's going Men Who Stare at Goats.
When you said Monuments monuments man I almost called
that monuments man who stare at goats. Little purple red man build a title action. Which
one of those you want to go with ultimately? Oh dude. I'm sticking with mine. You are? Didn't it feel kind of like I was kind of telegraphing that......
I'm not good with the social cues. It could be on me.
I could be one eye could have been looking one way and the other one...
I guess we'll go with Greg.
... the other way.
...
Neither one of them are on the list.
Neither one of them are on the list. Well, fuck us both, right?
That was fun though.
That's the bottom line.
All right, Amy, though, you do need to secure your lead here though,
because if Macon figures out the number two.
Let's do the same thing.
We'll have, I'll have Amy say one,
then I'll have your lifeline say one.
Okay. And then we'll pick one.
Well, you'll pick one.
Okay, going with a classic, one of my favorites,
three men and a baby.
Ooh, that's good.
Okay. That's good.
They don't know what to do with that baby.
It's so hard.
I just saw a commercial, there's a new sitcom right now where a guy's like Siri well how do I make a baby stop crying
while his baby's crying in his arm. What is happening?
All right okay Allison. Yeah what does the table say? Oh, that's good, that's good!
No country for old men.
And then which one do you think I should pick?
No, I'm gonna go
No Country for Old Men. No Country for Old Men. What was the other one?
Three Men and a Baby.
That's not on here.
But at number two, No Country for Old Men.
Listen.
Well, that makes your lead insurmountable, unfortunately, but let's have some fun with
it.
Let's have, make and give it a go just for fun.
I think all the good men have been taken.
I did like that movie, Safe Men.
Oh.
I love that movie.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's one of Jeff Tate's favorites.
Probably not high up on the list, but I'll go with that one.
We could check in with the Lifeline.
Yeah, let's see what your Lifeline says.
What does Yeti say?
Up, down, and up.
Oh.
Oh.
Tell us about the rabbits.
Tell us about the rabbits. Now we're just randomly guessing in the audience. That's funny. Everybody keep saying ones that we haven't said yet and
then make an opinion from all of those. Wait a minute, does watchmen count as
being part of, because it's one, you know, it's not a separate word. Black men had men in it.
A few good men.
Yeah, a few good men.
A few good men.
Oh, yeah.
A few good men.
That's one.
Men in black first class.
Yeah, we said that earlier.
Men in black two.
Men in black first class.
Men in black three.
Yeah, what do you think, Macon?
What about any of those?
I think a few good men is probably
going to be the one with the highest rating.
A few good men is number 10 on the list.
Whoa, nice.
That's amazing.
Woo!
So we still have our winner is Amy Miller, everybody.
Wow.
Yay! The winner is Amy Miller, everybody. Wow. I don't even like men.
No, this entire game was supposed to be pitted against you and your lack of knowledge about
movies with men in them.
What a twist.
Yeah.
Because these movies really deliver.
They have the word men in them and then they have smaller terrible parts for women. Almost every single one of them. You could be in this lady but
you got to be an alien under a bunch of makeup. All right so Amy you get to do
your plugs first and then I will reveal the other movies that did not get
mentioned in the top ten. But Amy what would you like to plug? Okay, follow me on Instagram at amymillercomedy
and then on 2B, will you do the song?
2B.
Relevant for several reasons.
I have a show with the Osbournes family on 2B.
We shot it last year, RIP,
but now it's available for you to watch.
I feel disgusting promoting it, but if you want to just see me and talk to the family
and we rewatch the reality show that they had.
And Ozzy tells a lot of stories, so it's very comforting to watch right now.
Exactly.
It's a great way to- To be or prime I've heard. It's a great way to
honor him and I'm sure it's also very entertaining. It's called the basement tape sorry.
There you go and on the drive all the way down here I listened to he already
had a channel on Sirius XM so I was listening to it Ozzy's Boneyard and it
was just nice to just hear a bunch of stories
and music for and by Ozzy.
Yes, the best.
Right on.
All right.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
[? Applause.?]
Speaking of men, he was a man.
There are one, two, three.
Oh, you didn't miss many of them. You got most of them, but
it's kind of tricky because number nine on the list was Men in Black 2. Right. That got
mentioned there at the end. And then just plain old X-Men was in there. And then number seven was something from 2025. These sometimes
these weird titles slip in there because they're like people are looking them up
they're like because like what's what's this a movie called Marked Men. Yeah so I
didn't expect anybody to get that. And then Children of Men, Men in Black, you
got the top five. Twelve Angry Men, No Country, and then Just of men men in black you got the top five 12 angry men
no country and then just men so that was pretty pretty good round of that game
but Amy as our winner we will have you back again very soon but in the meantime
let's get the other gentleman's plugs Opitz, thank you for being here. Thanks Doug.
Yeah, let's hear it for Chad. The man and the country. No country for old Chad. That's right.
What do you want to plug, dude?
I have a music comedy variety show in Burbank
called The Roguelike.
It's at the Roguelike Tavern called The Wrong Key
on August 7th.
I run it out every first Thursday of the month
with my friend Nick Stargu.
It's a monthly fun show.
Right on.
Did you say where they can see you on the socials?
At Chatopets. You have very on the socials? At Chad Opitz.
You have very humorous socials that you post.
Yeah.
He does.
Yeah.
All right.
Chad Opitz, everybody.
Yay, Chad.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I'm just lurking around making sure that all the prizes are
in the bag because I'm about to hand it off to the
Greg who's our winner correct? No way man. No I mean I really like what he made and
I don't want to. No Allison can you run up here and grab this? Allison vs. Predator. I don't even have one of these tote bags.
I don't even have one of these tote bags. Little faster, Allison.
She doesn't want to get hurt or anything.
I want to thank you.
Oh, hug her, Doug. She's high.
You're the best.
Congratulations. She needed a win and she got it. She's gonna start drinking
wine now. I thought we established she wasn't a wine drinker. Yeah. Oh, she even left the
name tag that she drew on it. It's beautiful. Eight by eleven. How about it for first-time guest, Macon Blair everybody. Thank you. So great
to meet you, to have you on the show. Love your work. August 29. They knew it better
than me. August 29, Toxic Avenger in theaters.
And anything else you want to mention?
No, that's the main one.
August 29th, Toxic Avenger in theaters.
Thank you for having me.
This was a blast.
Thank you for doing it, dude.
Thank you, man.
Enjoy the rest of your Comic-Con.
Everyone else, enjoy your Comic-Con.
And I got a couple more, just one more plug.
This is another thing I'm excited to say right here
at American Comedy Company is because
Doug Lowe's movies will be here on Saturday,
December 27th at 420.
Yeah, it's the holiday tradition continues.
That'll be here on Saturday, 27th yeah 420 in the
afternoon doing Douglas movies but I like I said earlier I'm doing stand-up
here the night before Thanksgiving I don't know if you've noticed a pattern
but I like to come home for the holidays it works out pretty good thank you to
the American Comedy Company to Edward the, and to all of you for starting
off your Comic Con weekend with me.
I know a lot of you are probably going to head back home and come back downtown for
the rest of it, but those of you who are here for it, good for you.
And one more time for my guests, Amy Miller, Chad Opitz, Macon Blair, and in spirit, Kevin Bacon is also with us.
And as always, you're okay.
Now it's time for Doug to watch another talkie.
Eyes of gold is viewing,oudness makes it foggy
There's no room in his heart for you
Cause Doug loves movies!
