I don't know what's with all the wrinkling of candy wrappers or something over there. What is that you're eating? You're eating Cheetos? In the front fucking row? I don't sell Cheetos at the movies, my friend, because they are too noisy.

Starting point is 00:01:38 all of a sudden. Like, that movie was originally called 3000, because that's the amount he pays her to fuck him for a week, and it was a was a drama like they added the comedy later they added all that great comedy it's a pretty woman oh gary marshall just one of the many we lost last year it's tuesday january 3rd.

Starting point is 00:02:39 We got about the same number as usual. But there's Brookback Mountain. That is finally bring a woman into the equation in the Brookback Mountain. That is finally bring a woman into the equation in the Brokeback Mountain story. Byron's song instead of Brian's song. You do know, of course, that that is a TV movie. Yeah, so better luck next time.
Starting point is 00:02:59 I don't tell my guests which name takes a pick. You could get picked. There could be somebody. Some people, just the idea of Brian's song just makes people start crying. Becca to the future though, you're sitting right next to a great name tag.
Starting point is 00:03:17 What is it? Instead of Hellraiser, Michelle Razor? I like it. And I like you and your, is that your husband next to you? Boyfriend? Husband? Yeah, you guys have little similar handles on your name tags. They're chopsticks. Chopsticks, okay. Settle down.

Starting point is 00:04:06 that's all that matters. Brandon and Robin? Instead of Batman? Could have been Batman and Brandon. They really same amount of work either way. Lots of little ones over there I can't read.
Starting point is 00:04:23 Somebody with a fucking actual video screen that says Austin Trelia? Because your name's Austin? Wow. Good work. What's going to happen when it's got dollar bills shooting out of it? Do you think I have

Starting point is 00:05:22 That would be the one that I would pick. I'm obsessed with La La Land Land How many times you seen it? Twice Was I looking at you? I'm talking to Lana Land This fucking guy Felt like you were looking at me But I'm it too also
Starting point is 00:05:44 Lana You haven't seen it? Felt like you were looking at me. But I'm it too also. Lana? You haven't seen it? Oh yeah. I think the spirit of Prince is in me. Because that guy was good at kicking over a mic stand and then going, no, wait a second, I need that. Great job to all the name tag bringers. Doug Pluggs, Austin,
Starting point is 00:06:16 Texas, this Saturday at 4.20, it's a last minute thing. I was like, it's winter, where should I go? I'll go back to Austin. Cap City Comedy Club, this Saturday. Oxnard, California. Oxnard? Oxnard Blues is one of my favorite movies.
Starting point is 00:06:36 Oxnard, California has a stand-up show with me in it, according to this piece of paper, at Levity Live. There's a club out there called levity live because a lot of people like their levity passed away uh that's on tuesday january 10th bring your name tags even though it's a stand-up show baseball jordan will be there with his baseball i'm sure and uh sunday january 15th i'm interrupting Shades of Grey at the Castro Theater in San Francisco as part of SF Sketch Fest.
Starting point is 00:07:10 SFSketchFest.com or go to, you know, that other site that I like to mention more than once with a long pause in between. And be sure to listen to Douglas Minis if you want to hear my voice
Starting point is 00:07:26 and opinions on movies uninterrupted by the likes of Pete Holmes and T.J. Miller and did you think I was going to say Bert Kreischer? Because I wasn't. Because he's become one of the most polite and well-mannered guests
Starting point is 00:07:41 that I have. I know, right? I shouldn't even be saying this out loud. He might be listening to this going, what do you mean I changed? I thought I was always my normal, robust self. 221, I think he got down to, on the bird is fat, Tom is fat.
Starting point is 00:08:03 I think they both got out of obese and into just overweight. So good for both of them. But also, the other reason to listen to Douglas' minis is because I have a new game that I play on there where each mini I make is named after a motion picture. It's not necessarily one I love or anything. It just has something to do with what happens
Starting point is 00:08:27 in that episode. So when a new mini plops, the first tweet to me on Twitter with the hashtag Douglas Minis that correctly guesses why, you know, in my mind. You may have another reason that's great, but why I
Starting point is 00:08:44 chose that a particular movie as a title for the episode that person wins a prize yeah we'll work we'll work that shit out between me and the winner Everett Scott SCP was the first winner so congratulations to him that's douglosmovies.com see I filled that space
Starting point is 00:09:12 with information which I don't know how much more entertaining that is than silence and weird laughing from the corrections department, Shrek the Third is Justin Timberlake's highest grossing movie after Inflation Adjustment,
Starting point is 00:09:33 followed by Trolls, and then Yogi Bear and Teacher. Sorry, Bad Teacher. Bad Teacher is the sequel to Teacher. There's a movie about a person that was very good at what they do. Also, Box Office Mojo considers Justin Timberlake's role
Starting point is 00:09:54 in Shrek the Third to be a bit part or a cameo. Yeah, and some guy on Twitter was telling me otherwise. He was like, he's in that whole goddamn movie. I'm not really a Shrek person. You know what I like? Puss in Boots.
Starting point is 00:10:13 Just cause he's so sexy. What else did I wanna say before? I think I got everything. Oh, Emil Hirsch Watch continues. I think I got everything. Oh! Emile Hirsch Watch continues. He's not here tonight. But I've got amazing guests, and I've got amazing Emile Hirsch questions that I'm going to ask them.
Starting point is 00:10:41 The prize bag, I bought a big bag that I got from somewhere. I don't even know where I got it, but it's a plain brown bag, but inside of that is a Doug Loves Movies t-shirt, and yeah, you don't have to cheer for these weird items.
Starting point is 00:10:57 A dude in Sacramento has written a couple of books about zombies. His name is J.K. Norrie, N-O-R-R-Y, and this one's called Zombies are the First Zombie. And then and then there's little
Starting point is 00:11:16 post-it things inside the book because apparently I get mentioned a couple of times in both of this gentleman's novels. I'll just read a little passage to you. Doug Benson was very gracious in fielding my inquiry
Starting point is 00:11:32 and very prompt in his response. He's a busy guy with his Doug Loves Movies and Getting Doug With High podcast and his comedy. Doug's comedy was needed in this world and he let it be. Good thing. That would have been a tough chapter to
Starting point is 00:11:48 cut. Thanks so much, Doug. What is this? This isn't part of a story. Oh, I see. This is the fucking thank yous or whatever. Yeah, this is the acknowledgements
Starting point is 00:12:03 is the word we use, Beowulf. And at the end of a bunch more acknowledgements, it says, now on with the story. But then I'm in the story, so now, this is exciting. I'm in the story once, and let's see how I pop up in the story. Uh. For some reason, the cruise ship had been rerouted,
Starting point is 00:12:26 and they had offered Doug a ridiculous amount of money to keep doing two shows a night for as long as they would be waylaid. Well, I've obviously come up earlier in this somewhere. If you're just calling me Doug... Doug didn't know if that was her real name, and he didn't care. This is about a girl named Candy.
Starting point is 00:12:53 Fans had been handing him plenty of smokables from day one, and the pile had grown in his little safe. Yeah, I go back to my room and put weed in my safe. The pile had grown in his little safe to a towering mountain of joints and buds. There had not been any reason to doubt his wisdom in staying on until his set was interrupted the third night. Oh yeah, I stayed on the cruise.
Starting point is 00:13:25 Wow, there's a lot of stuff with me in here. I might have to hang on to this. There's a whole thing, me and Sandy arguing. Never mind, Doug frowned. Did you see that thing? Oh, I get it. She winked at him. I don't get it at all.
Starting point is 00:13:48 All right, so that's going to the prize bag. Maybe the winner of the prize bag can, I don't know, dictate that section into a thing. A hat with WM on it. What do you think WM stands for? Weed Maps is correct. WM on it. What do you think WM stands for? Weed Maps is correct.
Starting point is 00:14:10 Never speak again out loud during my show. I always think that's part of the problem. Some of my guests will look right at people in the audience and go, what's the answer? And so they get excited about getting to participate, and then they just keep doing it. And I don't know how to stop it. I got some stickers. I got some pipes from Peacemaker.
Starting point is 00:14:29 I got this cool thing from a loot crate I think I got it from. It's a Firefly patch, like almost like if you're a boy or girl scout, it's a Firefly achievement patch. And, oh, a shirt from, who's this shirt from? Somebody just threw this at me, and I was like,
Starting point is 00:14:46 that's going in the prize bag. It's some sort of weed-related thing. Oh, it's a Weed Maps shirt, all right. All of that's going in there, plus stuff brought by my guests. Please give a big, warm welcome to Matt Messer, Dustin Ibarra, and Rachel Bloom! Besser, Dustin Ibarra, and Rachel Bloom! Hey, everybody. I like movies, too.
Starting point is 00:15:27 I think I am going to hold on to this zombie book for now because I kind of want to read all the parts that have me involved in them because I've never been in a zombie. I have. Actually, I was in a zombie movie, but I was a zombie. I wasn't just a person named Doug doing shows on a cruise ship. Let's say hi to them individually. Starting with first timer.

Well, so you're really into Smash. Wait, you're really into Smash. Man, did I spend a lot of money. No, I was way too into Smash. Did you do Louis Pitesman's...
Starting point is 00:16:53 It was a terrible show. What? Did you do Louis Pitesman's podcast after Smash? No. He has a podcast that talks about every episode of Smash like two years after Smash was canceled.
Starting point is 00:17:03 Oh my God. Yeah, so people can't even go back and look at it. No. It's not available anywhere. You don't think it is? I think it's on iTunes. Maybe. Sure.
Starting point is 00:17:12 Okay. It's a good place for Smash. But yeah, I love Smash and lots of people in it. And that guy, Lamar Odom Jr. was on Smash. Leslie Odom Jr. Leslie. I always call him Lamar Odom. Leslie Odom Jr. was on Smash. Leslie Odom Jr. Leslie. I call him, I always call him Lamar Odom. Leslie Odom.
Starting point is 00:17:28 He was on that show that night and I went to like the gathering after or whatever. And when he saw me, he said, you're a funny motherfucker. Whoa. Yeah. So I was very excited. That's a big deal. I was so excited that to this day I get his name wrong every time. Lamar Odom Jr.

Oh oh back to back yeah oh shit please watch them is it i mean i could talk to you about this all night but please it's doug loves movies is your tv show uh crazy difficult to shoot uh it's it's more the schedule's difficult to shoot i mean i can't speak to the difficulty of like shots but yeah i mean it's it's, it's more the schedule's difficult to shoot. I mean, I can't speak to the difficulty of like shots, but yeah, I mean, it's, it's hard because we're doing an hour long musical with a network TV budget, which isn't horrible, but the stuff that we try to do, it's like two fully produced music videos per episode. And when I saw La La Land, the first thing I thought I was like, man, I'm fucking jealous of their budget. Cause I was like, um, ah, they're in Griffith. No, they're on the freeway. Oh. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:48 My mom asked me if that was some sort of cheat when they were on the freeway. No, they rented out the freeway. No, they fucking shot down a piece of freeway. They ruined people's day to shoot a scene
Starting point is 00:18:59 of people's day being ruined. But yeah, it's hard. It's hard. And it's hard to, I mean, we're also, because we're a network, we're often writing, editing, and shooting
Starting point is 00:19:14 at the same time. And all of the people who write the music, that's not our only job. Like, I'm on the show. My friend Jack, who writes the music, is a writer
Starting point is 00:19:25 in the writer's room and then Adam Schlesinger produces the song so like we it's when we sit down together to write songs it's very rare yeah yeah
Starting point is 00:19:35 it's hard Adam's from Fountains of Wayne he is I love that band he wrote Stacy's Mom and he yeah and the theme song for Crank Great Yankers
Starting point is 00:19:42 and the he's currently writing the theme music for my new show on Comedyankers. And he's currently writing the theme music for my new show on Comedy Central, The High Court. Are you serious? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I didn't know that. Yeah, it's super neat.
Starting point is 00:19:53 I like that guy. Have you met him? Nuh-uh. No, don't care to see his stupid face, but I'm so excited that he does the amazing music on your show and my show. My show's just like, you know, it's just like
Starting point is 00:20:08 courtroom music. Oh, I had no idea what that was. Yeah, yeah. High court. The litigant wants $500. The defendant, you know, that kind of thing. I'm so excited to see it. That's how shitty a judge I am. I just said the litigant and the defendant, you know, that kind of thing. I'm so excited to see it. I don't even, that's how shitty a judge I am.
Starting point is 00:20:25 I don't even, I just said the litigant and the defendant. It's plaintiff and defendant. Doug, can we take five so you can be not high anymore? No, I'm high the whole time. And, you know, I'm just staring at you now. So excited that you have a tiny bottle of wine. I have a teeny tiny bottle, because I didn't want to get high, because I just feel like I can't form sentences.
Starting point is 00:20:48 So I asked if they had wine, and someone went out to a drugstore and got Mommy her fix. Which is what it feels like. Like, give Mommy a small bottle, but only like a glass and a half, honey. I love you so much. Did you finish your homework? I don't care. That's what I feel like right now. Drunk mom.
Starting point is 00:21:06 Don't you feel right now like if your show, if it ended at any point, which I certainly don't want it to do, but if you went three, four, five seasons and it ended, that you could kick start a movie version and get sort of your dream come true of doing a movie
Starting point is 00:21:21 musical that we have the time and the budget? Yeah, I don't know if I would do Crazy Ex just because it's, I mean, our goals to- Or something else, of course. Oh, yeah, then yes. Yes, yes.
Starting point is 00:21:31 Absolutely. But you could get it going just off of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend because people love that show. I've never thought about doing a Kickstarter, but that's a great idea. That's, I'm telling you,
Starting point is 00:21:40 Veronica Mars that shit. That's very true. Yeah. I could Veronica Mars that. How much did they earn though? Or just go to Netflix and just be like, let's make a movie. Yeah. Do it that shit. That's very true. Yeah. I could Veronica Mars that. How much did they earn? Or just go to Netflix and just be like, let's make a movie.
Starting point is 00:21:48 Yeah. Do it that way. I guess I could go to some of the people who turned down the show originally and be like, well, any regrets? Give me $10 million.
Starting point is 00:21:57 I love that plan. But in that voice. Mommy needs more of her fix. Mommy needs more of her mommy juice. Well, thank you so much for being here we gotta meet these other fellas we gotta say hello to two frequent guests on the show
Starting point is 00:22:13 I love these guys starting with Dustin Ibarra yeah man have you ever had to cut your hair for a role? Or do they always just cast you as the guy with that hair? No, they've had to cut it before. One time I did a pilot and they sent me back like four times to get it cut. And it was from a cool place.
Starting point is 00:22:36 You had to get four cuts? What were they kind of weird ass? I don't even know. A bunch of executives talking like, that's too poofy. We need it down. And they come back and they're like, well, now the sides are talking like, that's too poofy. We need it down. And they come back and they're like, well, now the sides are down.
Starting point is 00:22:47 The top is too poofy. What's going on? This is a house party. So then finally they got it right and then the show never got on. So, you know,
Starting point is 00:22:56 I don't know. But, you know, I had a good haircut. You know, it was pretty cool. That's what I like about old show biz. You know,
Starting point is 00:23:02 you get free haircuts sometimes. Oh, free haircuts are the best. Yeah. You just wait to get cast in something, show up with stupid looking hair. A good free haircut, too. You're like, let's fix this. Yeah. I like a six-time hair free haircut, you know?
Starting point is 00:23:17 You show up and punch card. I try to get a skinhead role at the start of every year. Oh, that's smart. That's a good way to get it going. And Dustin, what do you got going on, buddy? Are you in something that's out there or about to be? Not as much, but I'm doing... Do you sing?
Starting point is 00:23:37 Are you a good singer? I can sing some. Yeah? Well, an audition is like an audition for... I mean, everyone's always auditioning all the time for me all right do people just go up to you start singing no they don't but one of our cast members got really drunk and sang tlc's waterfalls at the cast party last year and i was like oh we got to write a song for it and we totally did so oh that's good yeah so this is a great career opportunity
Starting point is 00:24:00 for you dustin yeah we could go chairs ride waterfalls. Dark old chairs and waterfalls take me to the river. I could be three different people, you know what I'm saying? I got different octave ranges. Put on an eye patch and start rapping. Put a condom on one eye. Rest in peace.

Yeah, you're of course with the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater where Rachel was telling me before the show, the first show she saw at UCB Theater in LA was a performance of Doug Lo's movies. All comes around.
Starting point is 00:25:03 Yeah, do you remember who the guests were? No, I just remember you were really high. And the joke that you guys kept doing was that I think it was like what's a dog's favorite word? Roof. Roof.
Starting point is 00:25:20 Todd Glass was there. Was it Todd Glass? I'm pretty sure it was Todd Glass. Whoever it was, they kept, every time he said roof. He loses his mind every time I do the roof joke. Okay, yeah, that was, oh shit, it was Todd Glass. I didn't even realize that. Because it ends with, fisherman's wharf. Yes.
Starting point is 00:25:37 And he loses his absolute mind. Yeah, you guys kept doing that. Every time. He was losing his mind. He loves that bit. Now his new thing is he loves when I do Nancy Grace impression.
Starting point is 00:25:51 It makes him lose his mind. Which is always fun to have like a friend that you know you can just drop them to the ground laughing just over some stupid thing that's super easy to do.
Starting point is 00:26:01 But Matt, just in time here on January 3rd to promote a holiday special. Well, it's still holidays for most people. Oh yeah, lazy assholes who won't take their shit down.
Starting point is 00:26:15 I've seen plenty of holiday lights still. You know the new lights this year, those laser lights, instead of putting actual bulbs up, you know what I'm talking about? Yeah, they just point at the house and make it look like crazy lit up. Yeah, your whole house.
Starting point is 00:26:30 I kind of like that though. Just don't accidentally point that shit at an incoming plane or something. I was wondering about that. You could get like a hundred planes with one of those things. I'm getting one. Yeah, Andy Richter's Home for the Holidays

I know it's your first time, Rachel, so I just say that people bring something for the prize bag. So their interpretation of what they should bring
Starting point is 00:29:22 is often skewed. Yeah, I brought something kind of special actually to make. Sorry. This is what boobs are for. It's to hold a mic. This is the crew gift that we gave out. We made a CD of selections from season one and half of season two.
Starting point is 00:29:38 And so this is the literal crew gift.

Starting point is 00:30:10 What do you average? That's not even all of them. We had to select some. You do two, two, three production numbers in each episode, roughly? Yeah, I think by the end of this season, we have about 80 songs so far. Oh, boy.
Starting point is 00:30:23 Which is really fucking harsh. That's a lot of work. Yeah. Thank Adam Schlesinger for taking a few minutes out to write. Darn, darn, darn. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, I will.
Starting point is 00:30:36 You really should meet him, though. Okay. Do you want me to set that up? Yes, please. Okay. Great. Could you broker a meeting? All right, great. Our two families need to get together. Yeah, yeah. Okay. Great. Could you broker a meeting? All right, great.
Starting point is 00:30:45 You wrote my song. Our two families need to get together. Yeah, yeah. See ya. You wrote the music. Yeah, I did. We gave you a lot of notes. Yeah, you did.
Starting point is 00:30:55 Oh, you gave him a lot of notes? Well, more notes than apparently he likes. Oh, no. Can I get more? Deep, deep, deep. All right. I imagine that is what he sounds like. He has like two Emmys.
Starting point is 00:31:16 Yeah, no, he's insanely talented. It's really intimidating to me. Yeah, me too. Yeah. Don't set up a meeting. Does he threaten you with these Emmys? He should. I will box your you with these ones? He should I will box your ears with these Emmys He's also 80
Starting point is 00:31:29 Dustin, what do you got for the old You got a box full of stuff for the bag It's hair It's a tiny box It's pubes Check it out I got a pair of Star Wars underwear. What?
Starting point is 00:31:48 Now, they are medium size. And I'm not going to lie. It was a gift to me. But I am not a medium. How'd you find out? Were they almost on you? No. You guys are so lucky that I didn't try.
Starting point is 00:32:01 But yeah, no, I didn't. And my girlfriend's mom gave them to me. So now they would be yours. That's so sweet. That is, but they don't fit. She knows what I look like, too, so I'm like, what are you trying to give me a hint, lady? Come on. I saw Rogue One with them.
Starting point is 00:32:15 They're pretty amazing. Aspirational Star Wars underwear. Men's boxers. They just got lots of images from Star Wars on them. For the ladies. Yeah. Like, it just feels like it just falls in a way
Starting point is 00:32:26 like, hey, I got Darth Vader dick. Yeah. All the Princess Leia's are faded away. Oh. Sorry.
Starting point is 00:32:39 This isn't released until next week. Yeah. Wait. It'll be alright. It's gonna come out tomorrow that's all right though yeah so that's good you know someone hopefully a husky fella doesn't win but if you do give him to your little brother your girlfriend or something a boyfriend you know did you look cute on a girl person i was just thinking that yeah
Starting point is 00:33:03 i don't know why i would say that i was thinking of him on a girl person. I was just thinking that. Yeah. I don't know why I would say that. I was thinking of him on a little dog. Boxers for a boxer. His head poking out the pee hole. Come here, little guy.
Starting point is 00:33:25 What else have you got, Dustin? Oh, man. I have an I Heart Nuggets t-shirt and a What kind of nuggets? You know, whatever you want. Whatever kind. Tasty. Wheat nuggets, McDonald's nuggets, nuggets of knowledge. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:33:41 And then a McDonald's toy. I don't know how I got that, so that's weird. I don't know. It was in my house toy. I don't know how I got that, so that's weird. I don't know. What do you mean? It was in my house. I don't know how you got that. You take Ambien and take things from children? Yeah, you know how you got that.
Starting point is 00:33:54 I do. My girlfriend got it because she didn't want to eat a big meal, and so she got the small meal. And I was like, you know, I want to eat what you did not, lady. Can you order a children's meal if you're not a child? Yeah, I think. Yeah, because oftentimes you'd be ordering and the child's not present, but they might be nearby.
Starting point is 00:34:15 You have to have a child mannequin in your passenger seat. Sometimes they're dicks about it. Because I've wanted a certain toy and they won't sell it to me because I'm not a child. Yeah, what if you got a kid back home? In the basement. That's what I tell them.
Starting point is 00:34:33 They can tell that I'm way too excited about the toy because I've got a boner sticking out of my Star Wars boxers. But what is this character from? Is this like Adventure Time or something? I don't know, man. I was trying to figure it out.
Starting point is 00:34:50 I would think it's some French TV show or something. French? Some cartoon like in France or something. That's what they're giving away in Happy Meals? I think so. Like, see how there's French on it? Yes, Dustin, there's French on it. No, it has French on it well thank you for bringing all of that stuff
Starting point is 00:35:14 you guys this is an amazing prize bag that somebody's gonna win tonight but first I have to ask just real quickly each of you will start with you Matt what was the last movie that you saw? This is heavy, mostly because of the fucking food you brought. There's a lot of talk
Starting point is 00:35:33 of La La Land, and I watched that, you know, we get the screeners, so that's one of the first ones we wanted to watch, the wife and I. And we watched it
Starting point is 00:35:43 for three nights, which is not a compliment. Whoa, because you kept falling asleep every time? Because we kept falling asleep. It really is. The melodies are quite... After the first ten minutes, it gets very quiet for most of the movie. Okay, I liked the first
Starting point is 00:35:58 night of it. Night one of La La Land, a success. I fell asleep going, that was pretty good bled into my dreams um i didn't like it who knows when this happened but as soon as like she's frustrated no one comes to her one woman show i was like that's pretty deep into it that's an hour into it or more i think i fell asleep in like the second quarter. Okay.
Starting point is 00:36:26 The best part, the most realistic part of the movie is the fire alarm when he burns his bread. Do you remember that? I do, yes. Because that's when we woke up
Starting point is 00:36:39 on the second night. Have you ever done that? There's a fire alarm or a phone in your movie and you're like but there's a fire alarm we have a kid so it's like extra panicky and i'm like where is that and how you what i gotta turn it off so honey it's okay it's just la la land don't worry about it jake it's la la land so so you're kind of down on the movie then because i love it uh i'm a big fan
Starting point is 00:37:12 it was a lot of fun and then it wasn't then i was like it starts out peppier it gets more about sadness yeah that's true but there is But the movie captures to me, especially in that opening scene where they're just dancing in the traffic. That was a lot of fun. It just captures that you just have to have kind of an insane mentality to just be like, I'm going to go to LA and become a movie star.
Starting point is 00:37:36 It's not going to happen for most, but people still do it. But it happened to her. And what the fuck happened in France that she can't be nice to him when she gets back? Yeah, so I think it's that we were talking about this backstage. I think it's that he needed to stay in L.A. to raise the money for his jazz club. For three months?
Starting point is 00:37:57 She was gone three months. Well, he was still stuck on tour, and she went and did. Well, the movie got big. She was three months. Maybe they needed her for posts. She became a big deal. Maybe they were like, we need you to sit in on the edit. and she well the movie got big she was three months maybe they needed her for post she became a big deal maybe they were like
Starting point is 00:38:05 we need you to sit in on the edit yeah it's just you know they probably tried to call each other a few missed connections we don't want to give away too much of the movie
Starting point is 00:38:12 because it's in somewhat limited release currently but also it's not really a plot movie they made improv scene too easy they were like
Starting point is 00:38:22 you're going to go away and improvise for three months on this movie. And she's like, yeah, no problem. We hadn't seen her do any improv
Starting point is 00:38:29 whole movie up until that point. Well, it is funny at her audition when they're like, tell us a story. She sings a song that is not a story at all.
Starting point is 00:38:36 Yeah. But I still love it. I still love it. Okay. Can you tell a story now? That was a beautiful song about... Tell a story.
Starting point is 00:38:45 Yeah. But yeah, it's my late year, you know, end of 2016 obsession. I think I'm going to see that movie like 50 times. Whoa. Yeah, I absolutely love it. Rachel, was that the last movie you saw or have you seen something else?
Starting point is 00:39:00 I saw Half of Moonlight tonight and when I get home, I'm going to watch the other half with my husband. We watched it and I was like, I got to go to a show. So I saw the half I saw half of Moonlight tonight and when I get home I'm going to watch the other half with my husband. We watched it and I was like I gotta go to a show. So I saw the half I saw I loved. And can I spoil something? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:39:13 Can you close your ears? I don't know if you can. I didn't know what Moonlight was about but then two guys started kissing and I was like yes. That's not too bad. Whenever it turns out like a movie is like potentially about gay people I get really psych yes. That's not too bad. Whenever it turns out a movie is potentially about gay people, I get really psyched. I stumbled onto Treasure
Starting point is 00:39:29 walking down the street. I love movies about gay people. My grandpa is so different. It's so weird. I'm done. I'm done. That's crazy. But yeah, there's gay people in Moonlight. I don't think that's giving away too much.
Starting point is 00:39:49 Yeah, but the last full movie I saw... There were gay people in La La Land, too. I saw a couple. The last full... Yeah, a lot of straight dudes aren't dancing in traffic. Let's get out and jump on the hood and do a number. The last full movie I saw was Rogue One.
Starting point is 00:40:09 A Star Wars story? Yeah. Can I say something? Is this going to get me shot? I fucking hated it. Whoa! I thought it was so goddamn boring, man. I thought Rogue One was so fucking boring, man.
Starting point is 00:40:26 Do you find all the other ones? This is probably going to be, I don't know, on some list where it's like, don't hire her. All those nerds in Hollywood. Don't hire her. Do you think it was the most boring Star Wars ever? Or where do you stand on the prequels? No, it wasn't. Because those are crazy boring.
Starting point is 00:40:44 I got to say, it was like... Story-wise? I haven't seen this, but I'm gonna... Kind of on par with the pre... I just felt... I felt nothing. There were no moments... Hey!
Starting point is 00:40:58 There were no moments of human connection. And like... Yeah, okay, all right. I just turned to my... I just kept turning to my husband being like i'm but here's the thing because i'm a woman i always assume i'm wrong when i feel something negative because that's what a condition to feel right where it's like maybe maybe i'm just dumb and so i'm watching the movie and i'm bored as and i turned to my
Starting point is 00:41:18 husband i was like are you really bored and he was like oh my god and he was like, oh my God. And I was like, oh good, a man thinks it too. And I say that as a joke, but there's like 3% of me that still needs to check in with a man for his approval on art, and it disgusts me, and I hate it, and I just want to queef it out of my system. Fucking hate it. But there's like a couple of dumb women.
Starting point is 00:41:40 Not a lot, but at least like one. What? There's no on the planet Earth. Yeah, of course. There's not one. Yeah, everyone's a genius. Of course there are dumb women. Not a lot, but at least like, what? There's no on the planet Earth. Yeah, of course. There's not one. Yeah, everyone's a genius. Of course there are dumb women. Every dude's fucking dumb. Why can't there be one dumb woman?
Starting point is 00:41:52 That's fair. I don't think I'm one of them, but maybe, I don't know. See, if I were a dude, I'd be like, I'm not dumb. Fucking dudes, man.
Starting point is 00:42:03 I can see where people wouldn't enjoy it. i like it just in terms of it being like a fairly well told like science fiction war movie where you know there's certain goals that need to be achieved and then as a star wars nerd i'm happy that they you know do what they do in the movie but seeing it the second time i was kind of like yeah this is it's a little draggy like it should be faster paced and the characters should be more fun like the characters are all very forthright and well acted but none of them are like oh when this guy walks in now it's gonna
Starting point is 00:42:34 be fun for a while yeah how you felt about han solo and chewbacca and you know a lot like they should be dabbing and stuff yes that, that's right, Matt Besser. There should be more dabbing. But like the most fun part... But like the most fun parts of the movie for me were like... Because I wrote on a show called Star Wars Detours. That was a show that the Robot Chicken guys did. And I wrote on the third season. That's right, I wrote on the third season.
Starting point is 00:43:02 And it will never see the light of day because Disney bought Lucasfilm. And will never let it see the light of day. Oh, shit. But I learned a lot about... Shots fired. But I went deep into Star Wars doing that so I know a lot of the characters and the most joy I had was like,
Starting point is 00:43:14 oh, fuck, it was... Oh, it's the lady that dances in Jabba the Hutt. Oh, look, they're watching a hologram of her. And it's like, that's not a movie. That's just like Remember When. That's just like a family guy cut to. But they didn't go nuts with those things. That was really mean.
Starting point is 00:43:29 It was a movie. They could have had a lot more cameos by the different characters. And they were giving us a new group of heroes that are also not going to be around for many movies. That was super ambitious. I love that that's how it ended, but I think also the stakes just felt false. And I know that you could say this about a lot of prequels,
Starting point is 00:43:54 but I know how it ends. They're gonna destroy the Death Star. Spoiler alert. And I just was like, so I wasn't like, oh, what's gonna happen? Are they gonna destroy the Death Star? I know they're gonna destroy it.
Starting point is 00:44:05 Anyway. Anyway. Dustin. Am I going to get a bullet? Sorry, you have to follow this. I did Rogue One as well. That was my last movie I saw. What did you think? Did you like it?
Starting point is 00:44:16 I liked it. I was with my girlfriend. We were in Boston with her family, and I watched it with them. And her dad doesn't know anything about star wars so i had to just agree with him on every he was like oh yeah this is the this is the sequel this is between empire strikes back and return of the jedi and i'm like oh yeah it is i can see boba fett no you don't it's not but i had to like be like oh, yeah, yeah, man. Did you like the movie? Are you still mad about the underwear we gave you? Sorry about that.
Starting point is 00:44:50 I think that inspired that. Because we don't connect at all. Because he's like a real man dude. And he's so Star Wars. He's like, oh, yeah. We only go to movies together. I can barely see you. I feel bad about giving away the underwear.
Starting point is 00:45:06 What have I done? That was his thing for me. Do you want it back? No. I'm not going to lose it. Come on. It's like a medium, bro. I mean, it was beautiful. The movie was beautiful. I'll say that. The cinematography was
Starting point is 00:45:21 gorgeous, right? Yeah, when there was action it was well staged, I thought. I thought for young women, the heroine of the movie, there's no... For the most part, there's no romance for her. It's just about her actually achieving her goals
Starting point is 00:45:39 and about doing what she wants to do. So I think that's good. That's true. Crack open a cold one to that. It's still like, it's still like shows how slim pickings there are of like female representation in movies where we like reach for the one character
Starting point is 00:45:58 who doesn't fall in love and like trip over a fucking banana and go, ah! Like, we're like, oh, she's a feminist hero. It's like, no, she's just a lady. She's a lady doing things.
Starting point is 00:46:10 Women do have a problem stepping over bananas. That was the first thing. Yeah. You put a banana down and the ladies go right for it. That was the first specific I thought of. Bananas, not the right specific in that. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:46:23 I don't think, yeah, you're right. I mean, I, fortunately none of the star Wars movies is that. I'm sorry. I don't think, yeah, you're right. I mean, I fortunately, none of the star Wars movies is result. You resorted to a banana gang. They almost did with Jar Jar.
Starting point is 00:46:32 So close. So close with Jar Jar. Can I say, okay, this is Jar Jar was a living banana. This is really going to get me. This is actually going to get me hate. I really shouldn't say this,
Starting point is 00:46:42 but I'm going to say it. Go ahead. Cause I was texting with my, my robot chicken boss about it and i was like i just felt like the characters were so i just like i don't i couldn't describe them like i could like they're pretty and they're good at punching but other than like the sastroid i couldn't describe them and i i and i texted him and i don't necessarily mean this but i texted him and had me longing for jar jar binks and he was like you should tweet that immediately and i was like fuck no but now i'm saying it i don't know if i even meant it you don't mean it
Starting point is 00:47:18 i guess i don't they're not they may not be exciting but they're not irritating. I am good at punching. What do you like? You haven't even seen it, right? They've got personalities. To me, they've got very similar personalities to the gang in the original Matrix, where you're like, well, we could kill any of these, and no one's going to be too upset about it, but we also want them to achieve their goals.
Starting point is 00:47:45 Yeah. But when they die it's like, eh. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, the movie's not, the way they do it
Starting point is 00:47:52 is it's not a huge bummer that lots of people die in it and I think that's intentional. I think it's not supposed to be insanely sad. It's supposed to be more like
Starting point is 00:48:00 a few people died for the greater good. So many stormtroopers. Yeah. Well, that's the thing that cracks me up about Star Wars is it's such to be more like a few people died for the greater good. So many stormtroopers. Yeah. Well, that's the thing that cracks me up about Star Wars. It's such a fucking cheat. Like, if a movie had bad guys getting shot as much as stormtroopers get shot and blood came out of them, it'd be rated R.
Starting point is 00:48:19 But since it's a bunch of dumb stormtroopers, like, they equal bad. Like, there couldn't possibly be a stormtrooper that just grew up in the wrong part of the galaxy and you know like where you are ends up being who you fight for a lot of the time and uh and also just that they uh they just kind of fall down and don't bleed very much so if it's not bloody it's okay what if their armor ran on dogs. Like, in their chest plate was a dog that they got their energy from. Every time they got shot, you would know a fucking dog just
Starting point is 00:48:54 died. That'd be like watching Marley and Me 300 times. I know that this was an earlier story from that Star Wars Detour show that, like, because George Lucas I know that I know that this was an earlier story from that Star Wars Detour show that like
Starting point is 00:49:08 because George Lucas would sometimes be in the room and the first day I wrote he was in the room for a couple of hours which was crazy but I heard that in a previous episode
Starting point is 00:49:16 they were talking about killing they were talking about like killing a real character but then they were talking about maybe instead killing a droid and he was like
Starting point is 00:49:24 you can kill as many droids you want. They have no feelings. They're not human. He was like, murder the droids. I don't care. He just threw the droid into the mud. It was great.
Starting point is 00:49:35 That's what's crazy about the prequels. Suddenly there's these armies of just these real robot-y things that don't even have as much humanity in them as a stormtrooper. So it's like, who gives a fuck how many of those get killed or blown away or whatever. I did feel for when the, spoiler alert, when the droid ate it in Rogue One. I did. I liked that character
Starting point is 00:49:53 actually. When he died, I really did. Good old Alan Two Dicks. Right. As the voice of the Asperger's droid. It's fun. I mean, it saves the movie from a complete lack of fun
Starting point is 00:50:13 because it's really the only fun character in the movie that he just always just blurts out the most, you know, like... I like when he goes, do you know our chances of dying?
Starting point is 00:50:24 And he's like, I don't want to hear about it. And he says, well, they're very high. That was a mess. So many kids laughed at that. Yeah, maybe I laughed at it for the wrong reason. But so real quickly, Emil Hirschwatch continues here on Doug Loves Movies. He's going to be a guest on the show, just working out the exact show
Starting point is 00:50:53 where he's going to actually be here. It has been difficult, but hopefully the next time we're doing a show here on Martin Luther King Day at 420 here at Meltdown, so maybe he'll be at that one. But in the meantime... Did you say Martin Luther King Day on 420? At 420, the time of day.
Starting point is 00:51:15 There we go. That's what I didn't connect. The date is like January 16 or something like that. It would be crazy if Martin Luther King Day was on Hitler's birthday. That would be weird. Okay. Yeah, I don't think anyone would allow that. So I have to ask each of you, which one of you would like to go first?
Starting point is 00:51:34 I want to ask you questions that I planned for Emile Hirsch. Who would like to take the first Emile Hirsch question? I'll give it a whack. Okay, Dustin's up for it. Was it fun making Speed Racer? Fuck yeah, man. That was an amazing movie. I hung out and I met the monkey and, you know, he jumped on my back and then then he jumped off. And Dom DeLuise was there.
Starting point is 00:52:06 I think. I don't know. I'm probably. He was a fat dude. He had a curly mustache. I was like. Why do you have trouble remembering? Were you on speed, racer?
Starting point is 00:52:16 Oh. Yes. All right. Rachel. What was it like working with Paul Rudd he's a very nice guy yeah you know he's great what was that movie you did together
Starting point is 00:52:32 the kids are alright really I think it was called Princess Avalanche does that sound right what really Prince Avalanche sorry Princess that's so silly
Starting point is 00:52:47 why would there be a Princess Avalanche we just discussed this scarcity of roles for women Prince Avalanche starring two dudes and they're like on a rock quarry or something yeah well and of course the reveal in the movie is that
Starting point is 00:53:03 Paul Rudd's the prince of the avalanche and that I've been with him the whole time to break the spell. That the spell was broken the whole time. There's a spell? Oh yeah, there's a whole spell where he's stuck in the avalanche and all I had to do was think of
Starting point is 00:53:19 home. And it turned out that, it's like a retelling of The Wizard of Oz where the ruby slippers were in my... I was wearing them the whole time. And the sex scene was great. That's so irresponsible. He couldn't hide. You didn't look down? No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:53:36 I'm comparing it to the ruby slippers. The ruby slipper was the muff. The magic muff. Because it was very cold the ruby muff the ruby muff that would not keep you warm
Starting point is 00:53:48 did Grand Muff Tarkin did he upset you that they made Peter Cushing do a whole movie where he's not alive but they they CGI'd him
Starting point is 00:53:59 I gotta say it didn't I don't know it was well done it was very well done it wasn't as creepy as that end scene of the movie
Starting point is 00:54:05 where it's like, holy shit. That was like a different... This is some real... Like, remember, did you see the Twilight movies where they had a baby? No, I didn't.
Starting point is 00:54:15 And the baby grows rapidly. It's kind of a Benjamin Button situation. They should do that in every sitcom. Have the baby have that power rapid baby growth deal with that character
Starting point is 00:54:28 get that kid to the right age I like it Matt your new movie is called Autopsy of Jane Doe what would you like people to know about it?
Starting point is 00:54:47 Look. I didn't get along with the director at all on that movie. And I could give a fuck if anybody sees it. I thought it was bullshit.
Starting point is 00:55:02 It was like an episode of SVU. A week one. A week episode. You know what I mean? Like it went on an hour, half hour too long. That's what I got to say.
Starting point is 00:55:17 All right. Well, you know. Don't call me email. He should totally change his name to Email Hirsch. That is a sexy name, but looking forward to having him on the show.

Starting point is 00:59:36 Yeah, there you go. Because her name is Brooke. Brooke, and she put her face... Yeah, it's me and her instead of two dudes. Oh, that makes more sense. Yeah. Yeah. That's really fun. Yeah, that's a two dudes. Oh, that makes more sense. Yeah. That's really fun.
Starting point is 00:59:46 That's a much more mainstream version of that movie. Yeah. You took out everything interesting out of that movie. A man and a woman making love on a mountain. Until he broke her back. It's about a spinal injury.
Starting point is 01:00:04 Here, let me fuck you in this creek. Who are you playing for, Dustin? I am playing for Brandon and Robin. And it's on a Batman and Robin poster. And, you know. Yeah, I'm Mr. Freeze, which is exciting. You are, man.
Starting point is 01:00:21 Yeah, I love that. Mark Wahlberg. I know all of his great lines. Would you like to be a stalactite? I thought you stalagmite. All right, so Brandon and Brokeback. Brokeback. Lisa.
Starting point is 01:00:48 Yeah, she's just like, I didn't make a goddamn name tag. I'm not about that kind of attention. I just don't want to know what happened to that black guy kissing another guy. I can guess. I bet they kiss again. I bet you they keep kissing. All right.
Starting point is 01:01:11 Let's start our game section. You can put your name tag down if you don't want to hold on to it the whole time. And we'll start with... Brooke, thanks. Yeah, Brooke's cool with that. It's right there. This game is called Live, Die, Repeat.
Starting point is 01:01:27 I'll say the name of the movie. First person to repeat it back wins. You guys ready? Look good, feel good. Look good, feel good. Oh, I thought we were still talking. Are we still talking?
Starting point is 01:01:57 I don't know, but I'm not. Look who's not still talking. Look who's not still talking. Look who's talking. Oh, sorry. That's not a movie. I feel like a freshman in college who's being pranked and drinking a lot. You'll pick up on the rules.
Starting point is 01:02:13 Yes, repeat after me. Suck my dick! No, this is the title of a movie. First person to repeat it back wins. What? It's just a speed game. You see how fast you can hear a title,
Starting point is 01:02:29 figure out what it is, say it back. The Walkabout. Yeah. I love a good pre-guess. Out of all the movies. Ever. Here we go.
Starting point is 01:02:52 My super ex-girlfriend. My super ex-girlfriend. You win. Okay, this is already rigged. Had many words that are in her show title. That is true. Did you, was there a discussion ever of My Super Ex-Girlfriend,
Starting point is 01:03:13 that that was a movie with Uma Thurman? No, and we should have, because everyone calls it My Crazy Ex-Girlfriend because of My Super Ex-Girlfriend. We also didn't think people thought, would think the title would be anti-feminist, because in our heads it's, aha, we're meant to deconstruct it. So there are a lot of things we didn't think people would think the title would be anti-feminist. Because in our heads, it's, aha, we're meant to deconstruct it.
Starting point is 01:03:28 So there are a lot of things we didn't anticipate. And have you ever seen my super crazy ex-girlfriend? No, I haven't. My super ex-girlfriend. Is it good? It strikes me as not good. It's super crazy. Like Luke Wilson is just like, what do I do? Because Uma Thurman just knocks over buildings and shit
Starting point is 01:03:46 because she's mad at him. It's like if Bewitched, like if the witch was like, you know, was always angry at her husband. It's more like she just did witchy things and he'd get mad at her and she'd apologize. But, ugh.
Starting point is 01:04:04 Yeah, yeah, that's probably why the Bewitched movie didn't work. Yeah, yeah, that's probably why the Bewitched movie didn't work. But, yeah, it's not a good movie, but I thought you might have seen it just because of the similarity. No, I actually haven't. The movie that my writing partner is known for next to Devil Wears Prada
Starting point is 01:04:21 is she wrote the movie 27 Dresses and I still have not seen it. You know what? I am up to dress 22. I'll see them all someday. But wait, what was the other thing you said? She wrote the Devil Wears Prada. That's a great movie.
Starting point is 01:04:40 Yeah, it's a really good movie. That's one of the top, when people are like, what's a movie the ladies. That's one of the top, like, when people are like, you know, what's a movie the ladies enjoy that a dude could, you know, tolerate? And I think that's a even better than Tolerate, that one.
Starting point is 01:04:54 I like that one. Yeah, I love it too, yeah. And to toot her horn, because she'd never say this publicly, or maybe she would, I don't know. That's like the movie out of all, because she's a pretty big screenwriter that's like she wrote every word
Starting point is 01:05:07 of that movie like every other one of her movies you know the studio comes in and they give her notes but like that movie the director really so she wrote
Starting point is 01:05:13 when Stanley Tucci says gird your loins yeah that is fucking classic yeah she wrote that yeah she wrote that one because I'm just like name another line
Starting point is 01:05:23 that she probably wrote I know one line Meryl Streep improvised. Oh, what was that? The last line of the movie, go. Oh, go. It was just said in the script, the stage direction. Go, and she just did it, and she did it. So, you know, fun.
Starting point is 01:05:37 The director was like, cut. That's a stage direction, Meryl. Let's do it again. It's weird to be angry at someone named Meryl. Come on, Meryl. Let's play. Okay, so you're right. That was kind of cheating, helping her out, but also Let's play Okay so You're right
Starting point is 01:06:06 That was kind of cheating Helping her Helping her out But also you know That game is just to Just gets us to the next game Just warmed up Yeah

Starting point is 01:16:41 I chose all movies that have sex scenes. Just because you guessed Yentl doesn't mean it has a sex scene in it. But I was, I said, I think, doesn't Yentl, you know what, I, never mind. Yeah, I think somebody gets fucked through a sheet in Yentl.
Starting point is 01:17:01 But I didn't think of Yentl. I couldn't think of any other Y movie that was sexy. So for the second Y in Fifty Shades of Grey, I just went with E2 Mama Tambien. I went with it a second time, yeah. Right in front of me. So yeah, so there's no winners there, but it takes us into our next game
Starting point is 01:17:19 where Rachel will start us off again. And this is the game that's going to decide everything tonight. Who goes home with the prize bag. It's a game called Last Man Stanton. And... I made a name from a pre-selected audience member of an actor or actress. And I like to play along on this one.
Starting point is 01:17:41 We'll all take turns naming movies that that person's been in. If you can't think of one, you're out. Sorry, Lisa. But Lisa is your lifeline, so you can go to her once for help. Everybody gets to go to the person whose name tag they chose one time
Starting point is 01:17:58 to try to stay in it. And the person from the internet who convinced me the most that they've got an amazing name for us to use is underscore B-W-O-T underscore

But also, I'm excited about it. I think we can do all right with John Turturro. We're starting with Rachel.

Starting point is 01:21:13 It's right up my alley right there. Yes. That opens up an avenue of movies that I got to figure out the right one. I'm going to go with Mr. Deeds. Matt. Lisa, how are you doing? Do you need her help or are you just checking in with her? Fargo?
Starting point is 01:21:42 Fargo? Do you want to go with Fargo? Fargo? Do you want to go with Fargo? Wasn't he in a Jim Jarmusch movie? Probably. Was he in something called... Who hasn't Jarmusched? Oh. What was that second Jarmusch movie?

Starting point is 01:23:18 That's my final answer anyway. Your final answer is Raising Arizona? I do not believe that he was in Raising Arizona. Right? Yeah, I don't think he was in Raising Arizona. Right? Someone checking this? Yeah, I don't think he was. Just nobody needs to check it.
Starting point is 01:23:30 We all just get together as a group. He wasn't. Why? You've got to get on this. Okay, I'm out. What did he play if he was in it? I don't know. One of the bad guys. Just so I know, was he in Hail Caesar?
Starting point is 01:23:41 Because that was going to be my other guess. You can't do that. I'm not going to. I'm out. I'm just curious. There's still other players that are in play. All right. Yeah, and thank you for that answer.
Starting point is 01:23:53 Dustin? All right. I think we got this, Brandon. What do you got, buddy? The Good Shepherd. He's saying The Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd. Do you agree with that, Dustin?

Transformers, Miami Beach. I'm just going to take a whack it in Adam Sandler movie. Okay, whack it. Just because, okay, and maybe he did a cameo.
Starting point is 01:25:34 I could see this happening. Good possibility. He's in a bunch of them. Grownups. I just thought of another one he's in. Is he in Grownups, you guys? Two. Oh, clever.
Starting point is 01:25:48 I don't think he's in either of them. He wasn't like the mailman or something? I feel like he would be in... Everyone's watching. They're like, that's John Tartare. I think he's in Little Nicky. That's what I feel like he's in. That's when they hung out.
Starting point is 01:26:02 But who knows? You're still the winner, Dustin Ibarra. Brandon! Boots! Votch! Votch! Gotcha. Come get your prizes, Brandon.

What's happening? I saw him at a production of Zorba at City Center Encores about a year ago, and that's what's in my head. Great actor.
Starting point is 01:26:35 He's very good. Yeah, he's terrific, and he's on The Night Of. Oh, I love that. On HBO, but that doesn't count. But he's in Age of Extinction or Transformers, Welcome to Tomorrow, or one of those. One of those dumb...
