Starting point is 00:00:00 Oh shit, I forgot my guitar. Hey, hey, everybody. My name is Doug, and I love movies. This is Doug Loves Movies. Pretty good. Pretty good. Now hear this fest. Yes. We're coming to you from the marquee stage south, I think it might be. I forgot here in the marquee room live close to Anaheim, close
Starting point is 00:01:14 to or in Anaheim? All right. I thought it would be less. Don't know why I thought that. I just did. So, like, if you have a Disneyland annual pass, which I'm sure most of you do, you could just park in that Disneyland parking lot that's right across the street for free. Yeah. Little tip from me to you guys. You five or six people that have annual Disneyland passports and plan to attend this festival
Starting point is 00:01:47 I mean from what you've seen so far who's coming back next year that's what I thought and since we are just steps away from the Magic Kingdom I'm curious if there's going to be more Disney related name tags
Starting point is 00:02:04 do we haverelated name tags. Do we have some name tags in the crowd? I also know that you're at a whole weekend-long festival. A lot of you traveled, so I figured we might be a little light on the name tags. But we got some pretty good ones. Jewel of the Kyle. I like it, mostly because it's one of the bigger ones. There's a say anything. What did you change that to?
Starting point is 00:02:29 Lynn say anything. And who's in translation? Leah in translation. Dave the clock tower? Instead of save the clock tower, he took a line from a movie. And there's a back to the Future over there. What is yours saying?
Starting point is 00:02:47 Brit to the Future? Okay. And there's a Silent Bob and Jay talking of Jay. And it's, what is it? Jose and Silent Bob? I don't know if Jay would approve of that recasting.
Starting point is 00:03:08 What's that food one over there? It's on your head? It's your whole... Can you stand up? His head is a cup of soup? Oh, no, it's like a frozen dinner? Good friend cereal? And your faces are in there.
Starting point is 00:03:27 And it's from the good folks at Kashi. And that has to do with what movie? Nick... What? Oh, instead of National Treasure? Nick... Oh, instead of National Treasure, Nick-tional Treasure? It looks like...
Starting point is 00:03:51 Is it me, or does that look half-finished? That poster. I guess you filled in Nick so I could read it. I appreciate that. And next to you, it looks like there might be a donut situation. So the less said about that, the better. Let me real quickly do
Starting point is 00:04:07 some Doug plugs for upcoming Doug Loves Movies. Next Saturday, November 5th, we return to the Women's Club of Minneapolis at 420. You know, men are allowed, though. We got some Minneapolisans. Some Twin Citizens.
Starting point is 00:04:25 Also, are you going to that show too? Oh, yeah. Okay. Very good. Oh, we're going to be at the Punchline in Sacramento the week after that. I think that's November 12th. DouglasMovies.com I'm going to make that pause longer and longer
Starting point is 00:04:54 every episode, see how long we can get it Now it's time for Tweet Relief tweets about movies Brian Gar, G-A-A-R tweeted Anthony Weiner is the character in a zombie movie who doesn't admit that he's been bitten and then gets everyone killed. This has been Tweet Relief Weiner Biter Edition. I brought a prize bag. Let's look inside it.
Starting point is 00:05:29 At least 10% of you made name tags, so one of you could be a winner. We've got cookies from my hotel that they give you when you check in. We got a... Something was in this. A little teddy bear, but I thought, you know, you guys have a lot of ingenuity. You could turn this into a pipe or something.
Starting point is 00:05:51 It's a little teddy bear. A koozie that says cool head tech on it from Austin, Texas, where I will be doing a Douglas Movies on December 12th. We've also got lots of Ash vs. the Evil Dead swag, including the bag,
Starting point is 00:06:09 and you've heard about it in past episodes. It's a chainsaw foam finger, and I really am almost out of these. We're down to the wire with Phil Bill Volume 1, the coloring book about Bill Murray and his many characters. They've got Steve Zizou on the cover. All of that is going to be won by somebody here tonight,
Starting point is 00:06:37 and also there will be contributions from my guests, and I'm going to bring them out now. Please give a big, warm welcome to Mark McConville, Matt Gourley, and Paul F. Tompkins! Hi! Hello! Hello! Hi! Hi! Hi. Hello. Hello. Hi. Hi.
Starting point is 00:07:09 Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. Which one of you is shimp? We're three shimps. That's the secret to our comedy magic.
Starting point is 00:07:24 The three shimps. All shimp all the time. No waiting. Hi. Hello. Hi. Hi. Hi. Goodbye. Bye.
Starting point is 00:07:42 Bye. That's why I always start. Let's see if we remember that at the end. Goodbye. Bye. Bye. Oh, no. That's why I always start. No. Let's see if we remember that at the end. It would be a good place for that. Thank you all for being here. Thank you, Tom. And real quickly, before we meet you individually,
Starting point is 00:08:00 I want to say that the show now has a safe word. If you need to speak but everyone else is talking and you really have something you need to say that the show now has a safe word. If you need to speak but everyone else is talking and you really have something you need to say, the safe word is Donnie. Has this worked? Like a charm. Really? You'd be surprised.
Starting point is 00:08:20 Now, here's the thing. So you say Donnie. All of you start making noise. Matt, you know. Donnie! It works great. So the key is not so much the word as it is yelling. Louder than the other people.
Starting point is 00:08:35 But if I'm yelling, shut up, shut up, shut up, you guys can just keep going until I say, let's do it again. Okay. So anyway, I think I'm going to say my name. Hi, my name's Donnie. It's really. Wait, you said Don. So anyway, I think I would say my name. Hi, my name's Donnie. Donnie. It's really.
Starting point is 00:08:45 Wait, you said Donnie. Yeah, I did. What if my name was Donnie? Never mind. I'm going to cut that part out. What? You heavily edit this show, right? Yeah, all the stuff I remember to take out gets taken out.
Starting point is 00:09:05 Gets fucking Ann Coates in here. Movie reference. Good one, Paul. She edited one of Paul's favorite movies of all time. Masters of the Universe. That was filmed in my hometown. Masters of the Universe?
Starting point is 00:09:23 Yes. Why don't you do an I was there too and interview yourself? Don't mind if I do. Up next, he's me, Donnie. Let's meet these gentlemen individually, starting with the two men on the end. Wait a minute.
Starting point is 00:09:47 Well, I know it's me. Mark McConville and Matt Gourley, both first-time guests on the show. Wow. Hosts of the Pistol Shrimps podcast. Yeah. It is bar none my favorite podcast that I've never heard. BN, you're FP?
Starting point is 00:10:15 Yeah. I think. I saw the motion picture documentary, the Pistol Shrimps, about The Pistol Shrimps and about your podcast and got to enjoy your jokes all throughout and have not listened to the actual show. I like how you get a little southern
Starting point is 00:10:34 when you say, Pistol Shrimps. I kind of want to say, Shramps. Shramps. We might have to start doing that on the show. Shramps, pass the ball. Let's do that. Welcome on the show. Shrimps pass the ball. Let's do that. Welcome to a pistol shrimp. Their basket balling all over.
Starting point is 00:10:55 Put the ball in the basket. That's a bounce pass. So there you go. That's a sample of what their podcast is like. Yep. Yep. They announce ladies basketball teams all of their games. Is another season coming up soon?
Starting point is 00:11:15 We're in the middle of it, but there's a huge multi-week break. So I don't even know when the next one is. When is it? November 15th. There you go. Yeah. Okay. And it's a ladies recreational
Starting point is 00:11:26 center in Los Angeles? Yeah, it rotates. Does it ever... Donnie, ladies recreational... It's a women's recreational league. Right. But the center is not dedicated solely to them. Other things happen there which sometimes overlap with the games. That might be
Starting point is 00:11:45 why there's multiple week breaks. They may have been hit with a ton of quinceañeras or something. See. I would call that in a minute for the podcast. Oh, I would love that! I went in on that. Just sit in the corner
Starting point is 00:12:00 with your headsets on. Donnie! Just calling the quinceañera. Donnie! Pilar is wearing a beautiful gown from three-day gown brokers. Uncle Leo passes an envelope of cash. And also,
Starting point is 00:12:21 joining us on the stage, Paul F. Tompkins. Hi. Hi. Hi. A little more butch. Hi. Hi.
Starting point is 00:12:38 Hi. Where were you? Mark. Donnie. Oh, I'm Mark. Donnie. Oh, I'm sorry, Donnie. Doug, what a pleasure it is to be back here with you. Oh, here in Anaheim. Anaheim.
Starting point is 00:12:54 That's neat. Anaheim. I haven't seen any steamrollers. Anaheim steamroller. That's right. Is that good for the... Merry Christmas. Nice holiday restaurants. That's right. Is that good for that? Merry Christmas. Nice holiday restaurants?
Starting point is 00:13:05 That's right. That's the response. Anaheim Steamroller, the holiday restaurant. You guys are all over, all three of you are all over this festival. I don't think there's been a show at this festival that one of you hasn't appeared on. Superego already happened today. Yes.
Starting point is 00:13:23 And you're all part of that. Correct. And I believe the direct quote from Jeremy was, fuck Doug Lowe's movies. He just took off. No, I didn't ask him. He's not a pistol tramp. He honestly had to work tonight, so it worked out very well.
Starting point is 00:13:44 Yeah, it worked out great. Don't tell him I said any of this. Just edit it out. Second thing to edit out. Just edit it out. Just edit it out. Just edit it out. That was spooky and ooky.
Starting point is 00:14:04 I don't mind people being spooky. But when they're ooky, come on. Get out of here. Hit the road, Donnie. Too ooky. I Was There Too is Matt Gourley's podcast about... Thank you. He interviewed Paul F Paula Tompkins about being on the phone with Tom
Starting point is 00:14:29 Cruise. That's right. And he Really? Yeah. Oh, okay. I was never on the phone with Tom Cruise. I took his point. Philip Seymour Hoffman played the part of Tom Cruise. That's right. Who did it better? Who wore it better? That's so Raven. Who did it better?
Starting point is 00:14:42 Who wore it better? That's O'Raven. And here at the festival, let's tease this episode you did here at the festival, Matt. You interviewed Mark Maron. For Almost Famous, that's right. Because he's in Almost Famous. He's the guy who gets mad that they're leaving for some... Why are they leaving?
Starting point is 00:15:02 Well, they left because one of the band members gets electrocuted on stage, so they leave without paying or finishing the gig, and he's the promoter that wants to run them down. Right, and he even tries to stop them by locking the gates. Yes. Lock the gates!
Starting point is 00:15:16 And he yells, lock the gates. Which just seems like... What's the endgame here? The bus ruins their gates. Yeah. Because the bus is still going to go through the fucking gates. Oh, is that what happens in the movie? Do they bust through the gates?
Starting point is 00:15:28 Yeah. Yeah, they do. So, bad plan. Yeah. Anyway, I don't know why I'm getting deep on this gate busting thing, but gate, gate, gate, gate is really a hot topic right now. Busting makes you feel good. Ten days left till the election.
Starting point is 00:15:46 I ain't afraid of no gates. Gate Busters, what do you want? I'm in a special place right now. You guys have put me in cloud ten. So what was the most important, give us a tease of something you learned talking to Mark Maron about Almost Famous. Are you a big Almost Famous fan?
Starting point is 00:16:14 Yeah, sure, but we mostly talked about cats. I was there, too. Yeah. In the audience. And I can verify that. A lot of cat talk. Yeah, we both, I mean, we both have cats that we're very fond of, so it was, you know,
Starting point is 00:16:28 you either loved it or hated that episode, I think. Yeah, I'm putting it on my most skippable list. I don't know if you go off on it in any of your other shows, but I've heard enough
Starting point is 00:16:41 about Mark and cats. His take on it, I'm pretty clear about. Except my cat was in Raiders of the Lost Ark, so there was a lot to talk about. Now, here we go. What? No. Do you think there's a cat still
Starting point is 00:16:59 alive that was around for Raiders of the Lost Ark? Well, there was a cat I saw that was 31 years old. I saw it on a Facebook meme, so I'm sure that it's true. Ugh, millennials. Like my parents on Facebook. Millennials.
Starting point is 00:17:17 How long do, uh... How long do capuchin monkeys live? Eight years long. You're answering like we're in the game portion of the show. I am so tired. Matt could barely do one podcast, and he's doing three in a day. Are you saying that Matt should get
Starting point is 00:17:40 the Indiana Jones monkey on his show? I'm saying if it's still alive, did it play Marcel on Friends as well? It had to have. Same monkey? It had to have. Did he ever hile Hitler on Friends? That's how we'd know. Mark,
Starting point is 00:17:55 you're nothing but a pillar of strength, you son of a bitch. I'll tell you one thing he did on Friends. He stayed away from grapes. Doesn't he get murdered by grapes in Raiders? Oh, dates. Dates. God damn it.
Starting point is 00:18:10 They were bad dates. It still wouldn't have gotten a laugh if I said dates. Everybody would be like, what? He doesn't... What do you mean? He's single permanently? I was honestly trying... He stays away from dates?
Starting point is 00:18:19 I was honestly trying to remember the Friends episode where Marcel ate grapes and died. I did too. Yeah. There probably is one and died. I did too. There probably is one, though. I hope so. I mean, if you believe in theories of alternate universe, are you familiar with the Mandela effect? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:37 You either do or you don't. That's what it comes down to. Nelson Mandela for president. Donnie. Donnie. That's what it comes down to. Nelson Mandela for president. Donnie.
Starting point is 00:18:52 Well, there ain't nothing like being on the end of a seat row. By myself, no one to my left, feeling alone and bereft. Are we doing podcasts? No way to know. Three podcasts in a day. Hey, nonny, nonny, nonny, nonny, nonny, hey. Which side do you sit on when you're doing the shramps? Oh.
Starting point is 00:19:20 I guess it's the other side. Oh, that might be throwing you off. Do you guys want to switch? Do you mind? This makes sense. God, it's cold down here. Let me try it out. Nope, still feels pretty wrong. Okay, I'm back.
Starting point is 00:19:39 Let's talk prize bag stuff. What do you got there, Mark? I have a Super Ego lapel pin. Whoa. you got there, Mark? I have a super ego lapel pin. And then Doug, if it's cool with you, I have a mystery prize. I would... I think I like that.
Starting point is 00:19:56 When will the mystery be revealed? When the prize is given. Is that cool? The person who wins the prize has to open it here in front of everybody? Sure. Or I'll just tell them what it is when they win it. That sounds more fun. They can open it. They should open it.
Starting point is 00:20:12 They should open it when it's done. Why did you poke holes in the box? I didn't do that. I did not do this. I'm going to have to ask you to leave improv class now. I know it's the first day, but shit. Why don't you tell the person, whispered in their ear, lost in translation style,
Starting point is 00:20:32 and then we'll all always wonder what it is. Done. E, done E. That was a close one. Okay, so yeah, that's the plan. Is it going to be easy to open? It looks like it's taped up real good. Yeah, it's fine.
Starting point is 00:20:51 Okay. Probably get at it with a key. I'll help him open it. Or her. Where do you want it? Over here. Okay, don't read that out loud because it says what it is on there. I don't.
Starting point is 00:21:04 Wow. Yeah. Seriously, have you held this, Paul? No. Try to act like this isn't heavy when I hand it to you. This better not be an anvil. You might want to use both hands. All right.
Starting point is 00:21:14 Let's try with one. What's in this? Feathers? Let me feel. Why, this is an empty box or my name isn't Donnie. I'll just hand this over to you, Doc. Oh, thanks. Oh, that's a heavy lapel pin.
Starting point is 00:21:36 But this, I like the way Matt was like, oh, this isn't heavy. Like, if it was super light, would you do this with it? You'd show off a little bit more than this, wouldn't you? I got no issues with this. All right, well, thanks for bringing a barbell. Or a dumbbell, whatever kind of bell it is. What do you got for the
Starting point is 00:22:08 prize bag, Matt Gourley? Well, now in Super Ego we have this fake outlaw country band called The Journeymen and we have a CD here. This is 11 tracks of country western outlaw madness and then I drew a little
Starting point is 00:22:23 biplane with a sign behind it that says Doug Loves Movies. Oh, you got an aww only on one side of the room. Yeah, the right side. It was, in fact, looking in their direction. Paul? Well, I brought a couple posters from this weekend.
Starting point is 00:22:46 These are both designed by an artist named Nathan Diffie. He does all my stuff for Spontanean Nation. Big Diffie crowd. This is the Super Ego poster featuring us as classic Universal movie monsters. Nah. Perfect response.
Starting point is 00:23:04 Exactly what I'd hoped for. Real paramount guy. And then this is one from my show Spontaneanation, which is tomorrow afternoon. And this depicts me in the style of Dia de los Muertos! I'm sorry, what was that? Dia de los Muertos!
Starting point is 00:23:25 I think I got it. Could you see the upside-down exclamation mark at the beginning? That's all I could see. Thank you for both of those, Paul. Those were very nice. We're denting the shit out of them, but... Seemed anticlimactic. Yeah, when somebody brings a fucking brick of cocaine...
Starting point is 00:23:45 Doug, don't tell people what it is. I'm sorry, I know how to read. Why would they put it on the box? One brick of cocaine. And they don't think a brick of cocaine ever actually feels like an actual brick, right? Or does it? It does.
Starting point is 00:24:01 Is it as heavy as a brick? You get what you pay for. I once built a house out of cocaine. Oh, you were that pig. Yeah. Yeah. You gotta huff and pluff
Starting point is 00:24:17 and blow your house in. And then that wolf was so energized. And then he did a Martin Scorsese movie. That's right. Remember when that wolf went into the. And then he did a Martin Scorsese movie. That's right. Remember when that wolf went into the brick house and he was just throwing firecrackers around
Starting point is 00:24:30 while Sister Kristen played? And there was a little houseboy? Yeah. I do remember that. I'm glad. I should be going. Well... Paul always brings the conversation back
Starting point is 00:24:45 to Paul Thomas Anderson movies. I try to. Whenever I can. Halloween is upon us. Some people here tonight are wearing costumes. That gentleman over there is dressed like a pot smoker. We met outside. We had a nice time.
Starting point is 00:25:12 You guys, you all got different monsters. Did you get to pick which monster you were going to be on that poster? No. Are you happy with your monster? We'll start with Mark. You got Dracula. Would you have preferred someone else? No. I think I'm cool with Dracula. He seems cool.
Starting point is 00:25:28 Sharp dresser. How do you feel about the live forever part? I think it'd be all right. Yeah? I would just teach myself how to play every musical instrument. Oh, yeah. Because you just have, all you can do is practice all day inside, though. And I like to be inside.
Starting point is 00:25:49 Oh, that's good. During the day when it's hot out, already I'm already, I tend to go, I don't like to be out in the sun. And how do you feel about your own reflection? I don't love it. So you're not going to miss it at all? No, I think I'll be all right. Won't you kind of look in the mirror and go, am I even in this room? Wouldn't that be trippy?
Starting point is 00:26:06 That would be kind of cool. Do I get to fly, too? You have to turn into a bat. Fly? You can turn into a bat? Yeah, because I turned into a bat. Turned into a bat, yeah. Yeah, the bat can fly,
Starting point is 00:26:17 but I don't know if it's safe being a bat out there these days. You know what I mean? No, no, I sure don't. Everybody wants to take a broom to a bat When they get the chance Can't you also be a mist that goes through a keyhole or something? Look, I don't know the rules But so far, it's sounding great
Starting point is 00:26:33 He's completely down Donnie Donnie I invoke the right of Donnie You talking about learning Being immortal and learning all the musical instruments makes me think of
Starting point is 00:26:46 Groundhog Day. Yeah. When Bill Murray, now I love that movie, but a thing that has stuck with me forever is he learns to play
Starting point is 00:26:55 the piano, right? Mm-hmm. Because he's there, who knows, countless Groundhog's Days he's there for forever. And so then at the end, it's a big concert for the town or whatever and he's there forever. And so then at the end, it's a big concert for the town or whatever,
Starting point is 00:27:07 and he's playing piano. And then the piano teacher that he's been seeing turns to, after he does this insane solo, piano solo, turns to someone else in the crowd and says, he's my student. If he was at that level of playing piano, why would he need to go back that day to the piano teacher?
Starting point is 00:27:31 And did he totally psych her out? Like, I've never played the piano in my life. And then she's like, try this. Da, da, da, da. Then he does that. And she's like, I did it. Right, because 10 hours later or whatever, she sees him ripping it up. Yeah, wow, he really practiced his scales.
Starting point is 00:27:51 But couldn't he just start telling her, like walking in and going, hey, I'm a pianist already, but a refresher would be great today. I need a tune-up. I just need a tune-up, because I'm going to play this massive piano solo at the fucking VFW or whatever. They did not think that one through. Yeah. That one is definitely...
Starting point is 00:28:11 That joke is not worth it. All the other logic is sound, though. Well, it just makes her the biggest asshole in the world that thinks he learned all that in that one lesson. Yeah. Like, she's proud of that. I really did it. Also, doesn't she say it to, like, Andy McDowell? Why doesn't she say it to like Andy McDowell
Starting point is 00:28:26 why doesn't she say what are you fucking talking about we just got here yesterday he's your student you're crazy they would have gotten an R if she turned to his head what the fuck are you talking about that's probably why that line got cut then it would have been worth it Matt you're a werewolf how do you feel about it That's probably why that line got cut. Then it would have been worth it.
Starting point is 00:28:48 Matt, you're a werewolf. How do you feel about it? I guess I'm a little indifferent about it, I think. You don't get to live forever. No. You don't get to be the monster all the time. Wait a minute. Hold on a second. We don't know how long werewolves live.
Starting point is 00:29:02 They always get killed. They always get killed. So not only do you not get to live forever. So you get to get killed. My days are numbered. But if someone leaves them alone, they might live for quite a long time. There's never been a story of a werewolf left to his own devices. Are we talking about universal werewolves?
Starting point is 00:29:16 We're not talking about Len Wiseman werewolves. No. The lichens of the underworld series. We're talking Warren Zinobon werewolves. Universal werewolves. Well, you know what other werewol talking Warren Xenobon werewolves. Universal werewolves. Well, you know what other werewolves live. Michael Landon werewolves. Yes.
Starting point is 00:29:28 Yeah, when they're young, they tend to live. Yeah. The teen wolves all lived. Plus, I think I'm a cat guy, so werewolves are of the dog family. That doesn't jibe. When will Michael J. Fox make Senior Wolf? How old is he now? Is Senior Wolf? How old is he now? Is he 60?
Starting point is 00:29:48 How old is he? He's up there. He's 50 for sure. Yeah, maybe. I'll make some calls, Paul. Not sure why that isn't in the works. What about you, Paul? You're the invisible man on this poster.
Starting point is 00:30:05 I got to choose my own monster. What? Oh. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Poster gate. That's right. What? That's right, Julian Assange.
Starting point is 00:30:16 Now it can be leaked. Because I was the guy who was talking to the guy who made the poster. And he said, I had this idea, and I said, I'd like to be the invisible man. He's like, this idea. And I said, I'd like to be the Invisible Man. He's like, all right. And I said, make it look like my mustache is taped on. And he said, okay.
Starting point is 00:30:30 Oh, is that what that is? Yeah. Doug, who's missing from the poster? Oh, who's missing? Well, the creature, the black lagoon, of course. Is there a Frankenstein on here? There is a Frankenstein. That's Jeremy.
Starting point is 00:30:41 There's no mummy. Mummy, you Mummy, I just saw Monster Squad a couple of times and Wait, wait, wait. I just saw it a couple of times. I saw it for the first time ever in August and was pleasantly surprised by how
Starting point is 00:30:57 fun it is. And then I watched it again to do an interruption of it to bring it to more people's attention. Because it holds up. It's got some pretty awful special effects. But the mummy, and when I think about it, the mummy always, why would anybody be scared of someone that's just super tied up in a tight wrap and can barely move?
Starting point is 00:31:20 Yeah, and he was just a pharaoh, right? Just a pharaoh or something. He's always just like, just move out of the way and let the mummy pass. Yeah, and he was just a pharaoh. Or do anything. Right? Just a pharaoh or something. He's always just like, just move out of the way and let the mummy pass. Yeah. But didn't he always get the drop on people? Because he's so quiet. So quiet and so soft. He'd snuggle someone.
Starting point is 00:31:41 Don't squeeze the mummy. So I don't know who else is missing. We got Frankenstein's monster was Jeremy. Oh, Bride of Frankenstein. Yeah, they didn't make one of you guys. I would have taken that over Werewolf, I think. And no disrespect to Tiffany.
Starting point is 00:31:56 Bride of Frankenstein has no discernible... I mean, she just brought back from the dead. But she got that great hair. Great hair. Great hair. Great hair. Great hair. Great hair. Great hair. Great hair. Great hair.
Starting point is 00:32:07 Great hair. Donnie. One more question before we move on to the next portion of the show. We'll start with you, Paul. Sure.
Starting point is 00:32:22 Last motion picture that you saw. Oh. We'll start with you, Matt. Yeah, Paul. Sure. Last motion picture that you saw. Boo. Oh. We'll start with you, Matt. Yeah, thanks. What was the last motion picture you saw? Boo. Mark,
Starting point is 00:32:36 same question. Is Mr. Robot season one a movie? No, it is not. I remember, I remember. Okay. I think... Is my wife here? My wife! There she is. What do you see?
Starting point is 00:32:52 What's the last movie we saw? What was it, Janie? I know we saw The Nice Guys. Did we see something since then? The Nice Guys? Both go with The Nice Guys. Since we saw The Nice Guys, apparently we've also seen The Nice Guys. You go with Nice Guys. Since we saw The Nice Guys, apparently we've also seen The Nice Guys.
Starting point is 00:33:07 You liked that one, eh? I really enjoyed that movie. Fun movie. It was a lot of fun. Yeah. A lot of fun. Do you like it, Janie? Same time next year?
Starting point is 00:33:16 Same time next year. With Ellen Olden? Ellen Burstyn? Yes. Wow. There is a scene in that movie where, and this, you have to understand
Starting point is 00:33:23 that I grew up watching MASH. I was a kid when MASH was still on the air like new episodes, not in syndication. This was, like I was watching MASH every week. Hugely popular. 25 million. And so Alan Alda was beloved to me, always. And then in this movie, which I'd never
Starting point is 00:33:39 seen before, it's a movie made in the 70s and it spans several decades where Alan Alda, and it's based on a play, I believe. Yeah. Alan Alda. It's a two made in the 70s and it spans several decades where Alan Alda... It's based on a play, I believe. Yeah. It's a two-person play, basically. It's a two-hander. Alan Alda and Ellen Burstyn are having an affair that is one weekend every year
Starting point is 00:33:56 for several years. And so they go through all these different looks and everything as it goes on. Then at one point they're in bed and it's like the 70s and Alan Alda gets out of bed and he's only wearing
Starting point is 00:34:10 red bikini brief underwear and it was so weird to me. I get it. It was like seeing your dad nude. Like, oh no! Why did that have to happen ever? There's no warning. I like the year where she doesn't call it off
Starting point is 00:34:26 even though she's eight and a half months pregnant. Yeah. No communication. Hey, I'm here. Look at this. Might go into labor while we're making love. Look at this. Yeah, that's a weird-ass movie. You get to hear that song sung over and over again.
Starting point is 00:34:43 They have a song that bridges each year. It's a super 70s song sung by Johnny Mathis that takes you out of it every single time. Yeah, it's a montage of shit that happened that year. In the 70s, we were falling in love. It's terrible. It's a terrible song. I think it might have won Best Song at the Oscars. Sure.
Starting point is 00:35:02 Or it was at least nominated, because how many songs are there really? A hundred. Did you think of yours, Mark? Yes. Okay, Matt? Yep. Did you think of one?
Starting point is 00:35:15 Yep. Okay. Either one of you can answer now. I saw X-Men Apocalypse. Is that? Yeah, you're doing good. I was on an airplane, so it was like this big. Sure.
Starting point is 00:35:30 On a little seat back screen. A lot of action in a tiny screen, but did you like it? Sort of. It passed the time. I didn't love it. You know what I didn't like is when they walk out of Return of the Jedi and they're always like, the third one's always the worst.
Starting point is 00:35:48 And they are in the third one. That can't be. That really happens? Have you not seen it? I have not seen it. Yeah, it's like the young X. Nor will I now. They comment on this movie you're watching being the third movie in the series and that it
Starting point is 00:36:03 sucks. There's been a million X-Men movies. Yeah. But this is the throwback one where they're in... This is the third of that trilogy. The third throwback. 1970 whatever or 1980. No, they're in the 80s now. Oh, they are?
Starting point is 00:36:15 83. Oh, that's right, because that's when that movie came out. I've got to ask a question. Oh, no. Somebody in the audience has a microphone. Yeah, listen, Doug. First time, long time I want to know
Starting point is 00:36:28 Is the Quicksilver That is in the X-Men movie Is he the same guy in the Avengers movie? Different actor Why would he have Zero accent When he's younger And then somehow acquire
Starting point is 00:36:43 A thick Slavic accent When he's an and then somehow acquire a thick Slavic accent when he's an adult. Probably where he was raised. From the age of 18 on? His real mutant puberty acting power was that he switches accents
Starting point is 00:36:59 when he hits puberty. He's a double mutant. Well, they should have said that previously on the X-Men or whatever. That's true. I'd love if they had those at the beginning of the X-Men movies. Previously on the X-Men. What about you, Matt?
Starting point is 00:37:16 What's your last movie that you saw? I knew it wasn't almost famous because I had to watch that. There was something after, and I remembered. It's I Know What You Did Last Summer. We've been watching a lot of horror movies around the house, if that even counts. Are you going to keep
Starting point is 00:37:30 going and see I Know What You Did Last Summer 2? Absolutely. What was that one called? I Still Know. Wait. I Still Know? Really? There isn't a new murder? I haven't forgotten. I've been taking my ginkgo biloba. There isn't a new murder? It's just still thinking about that last one? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:46 I've been taking my ginkgo biloba. There have been no bygones since last summer. The third one is, I wrote it down. I wish they had gotten to, I have an idea of what you're going to do next summer. The prequel. Guys, don't make fun of my movie. I will always know what you do every summer. I'm really into your summers, is my point.
Starting point is 00:38:12 I'm trying to forget what you did four summers ago. My friend mentioned something about your summer. Remember that boring summer? What a time we had. All right, now's the part of the show where I say, let the games begin. Lock the gates. Gentlemen, the gates have been locked,
Starting point is 00:38:37 and the name tags have risen. Pick who you'd like to play for. Oh, there's a fucking Jason just stood up in the crowd. I never care for that. Oh, that's Michael Myers. I mean Michael Myers. A short-sleeved Michael Myers. It's Casual Friday for Mike Myers.
Starting point is 00:38:54 Wait, Fredo Ween? Like Fredo from The Godfather? I don't know what. Maybe. Oh, Fredo Ween. Oh, you're Fred. Right. Fredo Ween. All right, so yeah, go grab one that you want to play for there, Matt. Maybe. Oh, Fredoween. Oh, you're Fred. Fredoween.
Starting point is 00:39:05 All right, so yeah, go grab one that you want to play for there, Matt. And Paul's already got his. I got to say I'm a fan of that one too. And Mark's really checking them all out. They try to bribe you with donuts. Oh, he's going for the good friends. Cereal box. Gigantic cereal box.
Starting point is 00:39:31 Oh, Jesus. I didn't see that. Yeah, I don't know what that's about. I think we should get a picture with the pistol shramps. Extra points for teamwork. Faces in that. It's a double thing. It's a double thing.
Starting point is 00:39:44 Good fellas. Oh, no. you took that mask? You're not gonna put it on your face, are you? Oh, wait. Certainly not. You should put it through the holes in there for sure. Yeah, that's gonna be a good look. Yeah, right?
Starting point is 00:39:57 Yeah. Let's make sure we get a good shot of that. That is so horrifying. Take pictures, guys. What are you doing? This is the time to do it. The official photographer, come get right in front of them so you don't have to
Starting point is 00:40:26 get it from a weird angle because this is gold. Yeah, there you go. Can we suspend the picture-taking policy for just this? Okay. Guys, go ahead. Take a picture of this. Policy lifted. This belongs to all of us. Policy back. Policy lifted. Oh, now there's a million cameras.
Starting point is 00:40:41 You got ten seconds. Ten, nine, eight, seven, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one. Put your phones away! That was like an episode of Black Mirror. Alright, so
Starting point is 00:41:00 who are you playing for there, Mark? Caitlin and Mark are good fellas. Okay. I just like the double cutout. I mean, that's effort right there for me. Yeah, I don't know. So that thing already existed? It's a cereal box cover with two people on it.
Starting point is 00:41:15 Yeah, but it's not a cereal box. It's bigger and thicker. You haven't heard about cereal boxes? No. They're making them bigger and thicker. You buy this at Costco. That is a huge... The cost company.
Starting point is 00:41:30 All right, Matt, you got the Michael Myers mask. Yeah. And the sign that he wrote says Fredo Ween on it. Right. I thought it was Fredo from the Godfather Ween, but I think it's just Fredo Ween. Yeah. He's just going with one reference.
Starting point is 00:41:43 He's not trying to double up. You missed your real shot there. But again, I always like to point out to people who listen that even the littlest of efforts can end up on this stage. He had a mask lying around
Starting point is 00:42:00 and a piece of paper that he could fold over. And not even well, to be honest. Look at those corners. You can't make a snowflake out of that. But good job, Fred. No pressure, no offense. I got to go.
Starting point is 00:42:17 And Paul, looks like the news has been delivered. This is Dave, and his thing is, I think it's a play on Back to the Future, right? But it looked, for some reason, it looked very scary to me. It looked like a weird religious trap. The Watchtower. Oh, that's why. Dave the Clocktower.
Starting point is 00:42:37 Hello, I'm Dave the Clocktower. Yeah, I think that's the only variation is the word Dave Yeah, you did a great job changing save to Dave Spent 15 seconds on it Now you know the rest of the story Did you see Mike and save need wedding dates? So That's who you guys are playing for.
Starting point is 00:43:11 Fred and Dave and the good fellas. Caitlin and what? Mark. Caitlin and Mark are good fellas. Oh, Mark. That's another reason you should pick it. Yeah. It's your own name. So many reasons.
Starting point is 00:43:19 Happy accident. Okay. Happy accident. Hey, thank you. Happy accident, everybody. Happy accident to everyone. Happy accident. Hey, thank you. Happy accident, everybody. Happy accident to everyone. Thank you. Thank you.

Starting point is 00:48:28 Good night, everybody. You're supposed to do a goodbye song. Oh, well. Leaving out the door and we don't know more. That was just a sliding scale. That was the perfect moment to catch where the steadicam came flying through. It did sound like the Shining score, though. Okay, so at the end of the Shining. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:00 Was he, did he go back in time? No, he was always there. They say it in the bar. But then how did, what about Shelley Duvall? Well, that I can't speak to. He had a son. How did she end up with Popeye?

They like what they did. Let's play Last Man Stanton. Paul was there the night this game was named after Harry Dean Stanton
Starting point is 00:50:52 because up until that point, it was only the second time we played it, but he was the best at it. Yeah, no shit, he was the best at it. Because we did the movies of Harry Dean Stanton. The character actor. Yeah, he schooled us pretty hard we did the movies of Harry Dean Stanton. The character actor. Yeah, he schooled us pretty hard by being able to come up with three of his own movie titles.
Starting point is 00:51:11 Yeah, exactly. Exactly. So, rest in peace to Harry. Oh, I'm sorry to break the news to you this way. That would be so terrible. Everyone's shocked. Or they don't care. When does this come out, Doug?
Starting point is 00:51:29 This will be out tomorrow. I hope he makes it. I hope so, too. I don't want the joke to be real. Let me check 538. There are the odds on him making it through the night. Yeah, it's on there.
Starting point is 00:51:46 Done statistical analysis on it. I wanted to ruin another podcast, not kill a legend. All right. That's a good tagline. He wanted to ruin another podcast, not kill a legend. We're going to play to two points. Okay. Paul gets to go first.
Starting point is 00:52:11 Fuck. In the first round. I want to play along. So it'll go Paul, Matt, Mark, and then me. And we're going to just take turns naming movies that someone is in. Who is that someone?
Starting point is 00:52:27 We're going to find out because there's a person in this audience, all cocky on Twitter today, told me that this name hasn't been used in eight years, which is a spectacular number considering we've played this game for about three or four years. So that's some deep research. But I mean, technically, it still has not been used in eight years if you've only started playing the game.
Starting point is 00:52:53 Why not say ten then? A hundred years. This hasn't been used in a hundred years. It would have been a great way to go. But where is Julia W.D. Harrison? There she is, right up front. All excited. The heiress to the spray oil fortune?
Starting point is 00:53:11 I get it, Paul. I get it, W.D. Thanks. Thanks over there and over there. Oh, I said I've been listening for eight years. Oh, she's been listening for eight years and has never heard this particular name mentioned at all. In the entirety of the podcast. In the entire movie podcast, his name has never heard this particular name mentioned at all. In the entirety of the podcast.
Starting point is 00:53:26 Yeah, in the entire movie podcast, his name has never been mentioned. So you think this is a good one? I do. Where did you come in from? To be here? You live in LA? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:35 So you've been to the show at Meltdown or UCB? Yeah, okay. Because I knew your name when I saw it today. Give us the goods. Jimmy Stewart. I could, you know, I'm happy to do it. And I'm glad we're doing it, you know, to two points. First person out on this round of Jimmy Stewart
Starting point is 00:54:00 gets to pick in the next round any name. Any name. Did you hear that? You could say, you guys. Unprecedented. This changes everything. Doug, give us a second. No, you can't.
Starting point is 00:54:14 You shouldn't huddle your competing against each other. This is unprecedented. I feel like we should get Congress involved in this. I don't like myself. I ate three cookies. I don't like myself. I ate three cookies. I killed a bat. Hey, that's messed up.
Starting point is 00:54:33 Should have been a mist. And in every round, you get one lifeline. One time you can go to the person whose name tag you chose.
Starting point is 00:54:51 Fred is going to be full of James Stewart titles. I'm fucking smart. I got two people. You do have two people. I believe in you. I believe in you. Dave, how how you feeling? Where's Dave at?
Starting point is 00:55:07 There he is. Do you know who Jimmy Stewart is? Yes. He's from Black and White Times. It's my favorite newspaper, the Black and White Times. All right. Now in color. Bing, bongong bing.
Starting point is 00:55:26 Okay, we'll start with you, Paul. Yes, let's take this one off the board right away. It's A Wonderful Life. Yeah, let's get rid of that overrated shit. What? No! No, it's a lot of fun. That's also wrong. It's super short.
Starting point is 00:55:46 That's what I like about it. I cry every time I watch it. It whizzes by. You cry every time? Yeah, I do. And you watch it yearly, you think? Not every year. Probably every other year.
Starting point is 00:55:56 Okay. Yeah, I love that movie. But right around May? Yeah. When I'm getting ready for Memorial Day. Paul likes to cry. Buying my hot dogs. Paul likes to cry. Buying my hot dogs. Paul likes to cry on a similar schedule to the Olympics.
Starting point is 00:56:09 Every couple years you have a good one. That's right. All right. Matt? Rear window. Go, Mark. Harvey. Fair enough.
Starting point is 00:56:27 I'm going to go with what I believe was his last screen appearance in a motion picture called The Shootist Bittersweet I just figured if he's not in it I could get that one past you Paul Vertigo Vertigo.

Starting point is 00:58:01 You should have gingerly set that down and then really quickly picked it up. Sorry. Who am I thinking of? I don't believe you. Did he play Boo Radley in that? Yeah. Gregory Peck was too. Gregory Pecker.
Starting point is 00:58:15 All right. You were just seeing somebody walking around a courtroom when he said Mr. Smith goes to Washington. I think that's it. Yeah. All right. So you're out for this round. I get to pick the next name but you get to pick the name.
Starting point is 00:58:27 Can I use my phone? What? No. Use your phone to do what? Call somebody? Do you know any good names? Yeah. Hey, Corbin Bernson, can I use your name in this game?

Starting point is 01:00:15 You took yourself out because you were not sure about the airport movie. I didn't do it right. It's the right thing to do. I'm going to say The Philadelphia Story. I was going to be shocked if you didn't come up with that one because you of course are from Story, Pennsylvania That's not Philadelphia

Starting point is 01:03:59 classics did we miss? Chop Around the Corner. Are you fucking kidding me with American Tail 2? Fievel Goes West? Has James Stewart in it? That might be his final screen. That might be the last thing. That's like Orson Welles' last movie was The Transformers.
Starting point is 01:04:18 Wasn't he also in both The Man Who Knew Too Muches? Didn't they do it twice? I don't know. I know Hitchcock did it twice. I think he was in both. I don't think he was in both. What else? How the West was after the Thin Man. Anatomy of a Murder.
Starting point is 01:04:32 That's a good one. I'm from Laramie. Sir, I asked people where they were from earlier. Don't give a shit about Laramie. Thank you, Fred O'Ween. Alright, we did better than I thought we were going to do. Don't give a shit about Laramie. Thank you, Fred O'Wien. Thank you.
Starting point is 01:04:45 All right. We did better than I thought we were going to do. And who won that? Matt. Matt gets a point. That was stressful. We were playing to two points, and now Mark gets to start off the next one
Starting point is 01:05:08 because he was first out. Who would you think would be good for us to play? Actor or actress? Laura Linney. Oh, you son of a bitch. What a weird person you are. I love her. I think she's great.
Starting point is 01:05:25 I swear to God, you probably got it. She's really good, but she's also been in all of the things. He has a bedroom just full of Laura Linney posters. I don't care for that. She's a tough one, though. She's tough. Mr. Mark Linney. But easy.
Starting point is 01:05:44 Oh, shit. Okay, so, Mark, you have to start us off. You can count on me. I'm out. I... That... He's really thinking about it. Oh, I'm sorry.
Starting point is 01:06:06 Oh, we go back the other way. Yeah, we do. Oh, Love Actually. Of course. Of course. That's the movie where she played an ugly person who couldn't find love. That's right. Oh, man.
Starting point is 01:06:27 Way to go. Get out of here! There's no... The guy with the Kevin Smith poster's like, I don't know shit about Laura Linney. I'm out. When he said Laura Linney... I'm gonna go cut the very bottoms of my jeans off to make them into shorts.
Starting point is 01:06:44 It's a Kevin Smith reference. I never envisioned that. Someone who went to the trouble of making a name tag walking out early. I know. Seems like he'd be pretty into it. Well, if they had gotten picked, would they have stayed? I guess they would have had to.
Starting point is 01:07:03 Would have been forced to be here. I mean, manners. Against his will. Do you have one for Lorelei? Kinsey! You son of a bitch! That was the one I had. Oh, she was also in The Truman Show.
Starting point is 01:07:22 Lifeline, says the guy who... It was your goddamn idea, and you already need a lifeline? Lifeline Says the guy who It was your goddamn idea And you already need a lifeline What do you got? Nothing You just got an anvil Lifeline
Starting point is 01:07:34 What? You got one? They're thinking about it I'm getting a note And he picked her because he's a Laura Linney super fan I just love her I can think of three movies she's been in. You're giving him a lot of credit. Kinsey. Love Actually.
Starting point is 01:07:51 Yeah, what do you got? They want to go with Sully. Sully. That was mine. Yeah, it's the end of the E! Trilogy. Kinsey. Sully, you can count on me. You can count on me. You can count on me.
Starting point is 01:08:06 That was the one I had in reserve. Oh, you had Sully locked up? Do the little promos to Downton Abbey count? Oh, they have her in there saying that she loves him? Yeah, PBS. As the only non-British person in love, actually. I think Downton Abbey is spot on. She urges you to watch it.
Starting point is 01:08:33 Yeah, please watch it. Please. Hey, you should check this out. I like it. Come on, Yanks. Give it a try. God, there's something where she's in a brunette wig in old times. Oh, right.

Starting point is 01:10:47 She's not in Terminator 2? No. Laura Linney's an opus. Now, stay with me. It's not a movie. And I am out. But wouldn't it be great?
Starting point is 01:11:06 I'm out. But wouldn't it be great? I'm out. Is she in Mr. Holland's opus? She might be. Somebody's got to be Mrs. Holland. Somebody of an inappropriate age to be married to Richard Dreyfuss has to be in that movie. Is she?
Starting point is 01:11:22 No. Doesn't it seem like she could be though? And therefore isn't she? No. Doesn't it seem like she could be, though? Yeah. And therefore, isn't she? She could be. Are you familiar with the Mandela effect? She could be in a lot of things, but what did we miss? The life of David Gale.
Starting point is 01:11:37 The life of fucking David Gale. The life of David Gale? Congo. Congo. Congo. Congo. Mr. River. I went to college with the gorilla in that movie.
Starting point is 01:11:47 How about Dave? It's true. What? Dave? Dave? She's in Dave? She's an intern he had sex with in Dave. I've got to re-watch that movie.
Starting point is 01:11:56 Yeah. I'm alone in a hotel tonight. Dave. It's time to meet Dave. Don't you mean meet, save? Don't get the Eddie Murphy movie. All right. Well, we missed a few,
Starting point is 01:12:10 but even audience members have run out of Laura Linney titles. We've got to get her working again. She's a tough one. Well, she does a lot of plays on Broadway. She did that John Adams, too. And regional theater. Also movies that people don't go to see.
Starting point is 01:12:28 She does a lot of HBO kind of stuff. Drip. Right? Drip. The C word. So Matt won that round? Yeah. And Matt's arrived at two points.
Starting point is 01:12:39 I didn't win that round. You didn't? You won. I can't win. Who came up with the last one? He was the last man after me, right? Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:12:47 Wait, wait, wait, wait. Yeah, he was the last one to say a correct Laura Linney. What was it? I don't remember. You know, if you have to break down the Laura lineage, he was last. I'm sure it was a great one. Wait, what was it? I honestly can't remember what happened.
Starting point is 01:13:05 Oh, it was what Fred Oween gave me. Primal Fear. Primal Fear. Primal Fear. Primal Fear. So that means Matt is our winner tonight. What? That film felt like luck.
Starting point is 01:13:23 A lot of that felt like luck I can't tell you how excited I am right now To have Fred Oween himself Come up on the stage and open this Box that has a brick in it Oh my god Do you have something that you can open a box with? No
Starting point is 01:13:37 Could you also put the Mike Myers mask back on? Sure No, not really Or is it more fun if he opens the box with the Mike Myers mask? Yeah, it's way more fun with the mask. The best part, you don't even need the hair for this mask. Yeah, I don't know why the hair is on there.
Starting point is 01:13:55 The back is the best. It matches beautifully. It's really heavy. It's like Michael Myers just woke up. He's still got the bed head from the pillow. Turn around so you're facing the audience. I love Michael Myers on his birthday. I hope to God there's something in this box
Starting point is 01:14:11 that would be his shitty birthday gift. Like he murders his whole family after this. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday, Michael Myers. Happy birthday, Michael Myers. Happy birthday to you. Open it. Open it. See if you can open it, Michael.
Starting point is 01:14:36 If only you had a big knife. What is it? It's a small anvil. It's an anvil. The story of anvil. What is it? It's a small anvil. It's an anvil. The story of anvil. Wow, something you could bash someone's head in with. Congratulations, dude.
Starting point is 01:15:02 Here, take this bag, too. The whole bag full of stuff right there. And your posters, also. Yeah, you end up having a lot of stuff to lug around. I hope you live nearby. Okay, cool. Congratulations, man. Yeah, I live at Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.
Starting point is 01:15:24 I don't like it when the face is on top of your head. When it's a hat? I like it. That's for bird scaring. Thank you, Fred. Good job, Fred Oween. You're the best. Do you want the box for the anvil? You can have the box.
Starting point is 01:15:40 Also, I just wanted to see you walk up and down the runway one more time. The runway. He loves it on the catwalk. He can shake his little mask on the catwalk. Mm-hmm. I'm a killer, you know what I mean. I mean, I mean, you know what I mean. He's large. He loves me, he loves me, He loves me. He loves me.
Starting point is 01:16:05 He loves me. He loves me. I'm Popeye. The sailor. He's doing a little Popeye. Sweet, sweet heaven. God must love us. Something, something, something.
Starting point is 01:16:23 Haven. We've got eight minutes. What? I can feel it. Nothing. Do you guys want to play one more quick game? Yeah. Is it about Laura Linney?
Starting point is 01:16:44 This does not. Yes. It's the new Laura Linney? This does not. Yes. It's the new Laura Linney game. Mark is the only player. Okay. Repeat back as many Laura Linney movies as you can remember now. Sully. Primal Fear.
Starting point is 01:16:59 You Can Count on Me. Kinsey. You officially know more Laura Linney movies than when you started. I'm so happy. You got that going for you. No, let's play. It's another version of Last Man Stanton.
Starting point is 01:17:16 I call it Last Mash Stanton. I've mashed up two names of people that have been in movies. And the three of you will take turns naming movies by either of these people and we'll see who can go the longest and we'll do it fast as well.
Starting point is 01:17:34 I don't know why a balloon popped backstage but they must be preparing for something. Somebody, they're trying to cure someone of the hiccups. Alright, so who should we let start this one off? We'll let Mark start
Starting point is 01:17:54 because it's easier. First person. Okay. No lifelines though this time. Got it. Olivia Newton, John Lithgow. The films of Olivia Newton-John and John Lithgow. Grease. Starring the great John Lithgow.
Starting point is 01:18:24 Matt? Xanadu. Paul, do you want to finish out the Olivia Newton-John trilogy or do you want to move on to Mr. Lithgow? I'm moving on. Raising Cane. Oh, man. Mark?
Starting point is 01:18:44 World According to Garp. Matt? Yeah. Cliffhanger. No, don't leave us in suspense. Give us an answer. My hiccups are gone. My hiccups are gone.
Starting point is 01:19:23 Has somebody seen my hiccups? My word. You've cured me of my hiccups are gone Has somebody seen my hiccups? My word You've cured me of my hiccups I seem to have misplaced my hair That's when I realized they were fools They could never cure me of my hiccups Only I have the power to give myself and take hiccups away I'm sorry
Starting point is 01:19:38 I was House of Cardsing Everybody please put your hiccups in the fishbowl Oh we're having a hiccup key party Oh dear Anyway All that jazz Olivia Newton-John Please
Starting point is 01:19:59 Harry and the Hendersons. Eight millimeter. Olivia Newton-John is in that? Yeah. Or Lithgow? I don't remember if Lithgow's in that or not. Isn't that great? Okay, Paul.
Starting point is 01:20:30 I don't know. The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the Eighth Dimension. Yes, full title. I like it. Mark. I'm out. I'm out. I'm out. I'm out. I'm out. I don't know. Red Dawn.
Starting point is 01:20:50 No, but Harry Dean Stanton's in that. Yeah. Is that what we're playing? Huh? No. There's a ton of John Lithgow movies. Yeah, there is. Is he in Dressed to Kill?
Starting point is 01:21:03 No, he isn't. Can someone confirm that positively? You're mixing it up with something else. Am I? I've said too much. I don't know if he's in 8mm either, so I will... Well, all right, take it easy. Take it easy. Some guy over there has got a whole computer set up.
Starting point is 01:21:20 If that isn't John Lithgow himself, I will not accept that. All right, I'm going to take myself out by losing. By answering incorrectly. Paul, do you have another one just for fun? Just to win it defiantly? Yeah, I know that I do. I know that I do. And I thought about it.
Starting point is 01:21:44 Talked it over with my wife and my pastor. What's the... My wife, what's the... What's the Brian De Palma movie that Matt was thinking of? Yeah. Yeah, right? It was one of those.
Starting point is 01:21:59 And... Not Raising Cain, but... Lowering Abel. Okay, you're back in. Yeah! I can't think of it. That's okay. I can't think of it that's okay I can't think of it
Starting point is 01:22:29 it's blowout that's what I was trying to think of damn it but Mark wins that game rigged I'm glad you took back the 8mm because now the corrections department doesn't have to deal with it in a future episode
Starting point is 01:22:47 we can all agree that it's probably James Gandolfini who you met is he in that? I was thinking of Blowout though I was thinking of Blowout and then Brian De Palma put it out of my mind because I forgot that was a Brian De Palma movie
Starting point is 01:23:01 while you guys were talking over here I was like Blowout out, blow out. And then I fucked myself. I got into my own head. What do you got to plug, Paul? What's coming up for you? Well, I am doing... Well, it'll be over by the time people hear this,
Starting point is 01:23:20 but Spontanean Nation Live will be at Largo at the Coronet in Los Angeles. Everyone can come to that. That's you, right? You can come tomorrow. Come tomorrow afternoon. Come back to Largo. Sounds like you're really enthusiastic about it. Saturday, November
Starting point is 01:23:36 5th, I'll be doing Spontanean Nation Live at Largo at the Coronet with improvisers Chris Tallman, Shuley Cowan, and Tony Newsom. Our special guest will be formerly of The Walking Dead, Stephen Young. We'll be a special interview guy.
Starting point is 01:23:52 I hope he got his eye pushed back in for the show. It's very unpleasant to look at. We all do. Thank you very much. What happened on the show? Mark, what's going on with you, man? Matt and I have a podcast called Pistol Shrimps Radio. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 01:24:10 And you can find that wherever podcasts are organically farmed. And then we got some games coming up here in November and December to do. And we're in New York on November 11th. But the shows are sold out. But that's Super Ego. Super Ego has shows at the Bell House in Brooklyn. It's still fun to talk about how it's sold out. Better luck next time, suckers.
Starting point is 01:24:32 But maybe you show up, you stand out there, you get lucky. Yeah. Yeah? Standby line, we call them sometimes. That's right. That's right. Cool. Are all your plugs the same, Matt, or do you want to plug something else?
Starting point is 01:24:43 No way, man. I got the run-up to the 50th episode of I Was There Too. You better be there. Doing a whole set of original trilogy Star Wars episodes coming up next. And Ewok. And then the... You can't just say that and not give us a taste of what that's going to sound like.
Starting point is 01:25:08 Come on, give us that yub nub. No way, man. I respect the Andorian native species. And then that leads up to the 50th episode, which is going to be a little bit of a surprise. So check it out. Oh. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:25:23 Okay. Is it an anvil in a box? No. Because that was a pretty sweet surprise. Yeah. No way. Where'd you get that anvil? Acme?
Starting point is 01:25:33 Pistol Shrimps Radio listeners sent me that anvil. And it's one of many that I have. So not Acme? So that's a regular thing that they send you anvils? Well, Matt incited people to send me anvils because I have to pick up the mail at our post office box, and he thought it'd be hilarious for me to have to lug an anvil around. Prove positive tonight.
Starting point is 01:25:55 And then Matt did an episode by himself last week, and someone brought a 60-pound anvil, and I wasn't there. They brought a full-size one that Matt then had to get home by himself. There was a very good chance you were going to let me give away an anvil and I wasn't there. They brought a full size one that Matt then had to get home by himself. There was a very good chance you were going to let me give away an anvil and never give this payoff. Explain why the crossover. I guess I screwed that up.
Starting point is 01:26:16 I beg forgiveness. If you bring an anvil every time, you could be on every show. Can I also do a group plug for the three of us? Please. There's a show called Super Ego Forgotten Classics that is on howl.fm.
Starting point is 01:26:32 And it's one of my favorite things that I've ever participated in. The three of us and our friend James Bladen and Jeremy Carter narrates. We take a classic work of literature that none of us have ever read. We get the list of characters, the first sentence, and the last sentence of the book,
Starting point is 01:26:50 and then we improvise what we think it is about. And we've done what we did... Stranger in a Strange Land. Wuthering Heights. And Red Badge of Courage. Red Badge of Courage, yeah. Wow, you guys are very not well-read. Correct. As a group. That very not well read. Correct.
Starting point is 01:27:05 As a group, that's terrific. It's sad. We are stupid. And people are going to listen to it. You're going to send people away with that's what they're going to think the book is, whatever you do. I hope so. Nobody's going to be like, let's go really read it. We're telling people they're audiobooks.
Starting point is 01:27:24 When you did Wuthering Heights, was Heathcliff a cat? There were a lot of fish skeletons. Oh, okay. I'm going to be doing a set at Largo
Starting point is 01:27:40 on Judd Apatow and Friends on Tuesday night. I can't wait for him to know about that. And I'm forcing my way onto that show. And Doug Lowe's movies is going to be at Helium in Portland on November 19th.

Starting point is 01:28:21 This is how I find out. Is a shithead. I think we can all agree. This one, I don't know so much. I don't know why. I know the election's coming right up, but I don't know why things have to be so political, so divided.
Starting point is 01:28:38 We're right here near Disneyland. Everyone should... But anyway. Six Flags Magic Mountain is a shithead. Yes. Play that closing theme if you have it. Now it's time for Doug to watch another talkie. Eyes of gold, his viewing prowess makes him cocky. There's no room in his heart for you.
