No, They're the best cookies. There's not weed in here. Are these pot cookies or are these just regular cookies? No, they're just regular cookies. They're just regular cookies. You have a cookie talent.
Starting point is 00:06:11 He said they're the not fun kind when he gave them to me. Like anyone who gives me any baked goods has to make it clear. They either give it to me with a smile. They either give it with a smile or they go, these are just cookies. Well, there's no extra love in them. It's just sugar. The original love.
Starting point is 00:06:30 Remember what Jimmy Kimmel told you to do when you had the marijuana hugs? I do kind of, but remind me. He said, Doug had the marijuana hugs. He was going on tour with the marijuana hugs and then it was off-Broadway in New York and Jimmy said,
Starting point is 00:06:48 you should sell brownies at the concession stand, just regular brownies, but sell them for $20 each because they'll assume they're like special brownies but you never said anything and then like an hour later
Starting point is 00:07:02 if they don't feel anything, it's not your problem. Yeah, and he wouldn't let that go. I was like, I will not deceive people like that. He was really excited. Yes, but you could make a lot of money. Just put brownies in quotes. That's what he said.
Starting point is 00:07:15 That's what he said. That's what he said. That's not right. That's not something I would do. No, but it is funny. They are brownies. That's what a non-pothead would do. Pretend to be a pothead and then sell that shit
Starting point is 00:07:28 and try to make money. You are an unsinkable ship, Doug Benson. Did you say I'm an unsinkable shit because aren't most? No, they sink. They sink. They do? Yeah, they drop. They swim around.
Starting point is 00:07:40 Mine don't float. They're not like sea monkeys. It's not like a weird little shit civilization that crops up with those weird fish heads? I've left them in there for a couple weeks and no, I have not seen them. And here's the castle. You're building all the different parts of their environment.
Starting point is 00:07:58 I had sea monkeys from the back of the comic books when I was a kid. None of them had bikinis like in the ad. But besides that, it was pretty much exactly what they said. No, they always wanted to show their tits. My Seamonkeys always showed their tits. Check out my balls. Oh, you have tits and balls?
Starting point is 00:08:17 That's what a Seamonkey has to do. I heard the male Seamonkey has the babies. Yep. Is that true? Yeah. Oh, that's adorable. He has his father's vagina. Oh, that has the babies. Yep. Is that true? Yeah. Oh, that's adorable. He has his father's vagina. Oh, no, that's the seahorse.
Starting point is 00:08:30 Yeah, those are seahorses. He has his mother. Guys, we got to get on the Sea Monkeys movie, man. Reboot that franchise. Love it. I had a meeting with some shitty movie producer, and I don't remember who it was, but I just remember this so well.
Starting point is 00:08:44 He was so excited because they had just acquired the rights to Bazooka Joe. Oh, Harvey Weinstein. We're just going to adapt one strip.
Starting point is 00:09:00 Just one of them. This is the trailer. Bazooka Joe has a problem. I don't have any friends until one day ow! I feel good! I don't know
Starting point is 00:09:14 and then it goes on from there. The first movie based on a two panel strip. I did hear someone also try to pitch a movie to me one time goes
Starting point is 00:09:22 we just have the rights to chutes and ladders. I'm like, what? What is that? I mean, I know it's a board game, but how would you adapt that into a movie? Just climbing and then sliding down? Like, I don't know what that is. Yeah, but what about this?
Starting point is 00:09:38 Someone clearly was like, I just got the rights to, you know, those garden gnomes. Oh, yeah. Yes. Gnomeo and Juliet. Boom. I want those gnomes to be racist against the black lawn jockeys. If anyone commits suicide
Starting point is 00:09:57 around the time of that movie, they should bring it up in the note. That'd be so brutal. Some guy kills himself and he mentioned Gnomeo and Juliet. I don't want to live in a world where dot dot dot. I think Chutes and Ladders could have sponsored
Starting point is 00:10:13 127 hours. It slides down the thing. I'm stuck. Oh, there's a ladder. I can't reach it. Saw. End of movie. Right there. It totally writes itself. Totally writes itself. What do you do when you play Chutes and Ladders? You like roll dice? Yeah, sometimes you go up a ladder and sometimes. It totally writes itself. Totally writes itself. What do you do when you play Shoots and Ladders? You like roll dice?
Starting point is 00:10:26 Yeah, sometimes you go up a ladder and sometimes you fall down a slide. It's like life, man. Sometimes you go up, sometimes you slide down. There's your tagline. It's like life.
Starting point is 00:10:37 It's aggravating and takes no skill. In the UK, it's called Snakes and Ladders, and that would be a more interesting thing. Yeah. Oh, I like Snakes and Ladders. You've got fucking snakes.
Starting point is 00:10:50 That's like Raider Jackson in there. Yeah. Somebody get these motherfucking snakes off these motherfucking ladders. I'm in. Good. I want to see that. That sounds great.
Starting point is 00:11:04 It's January 25th, so the Academy Award nominations came out today. And nothing for the Expendables. Again, Stallone is shafted. Wait a second. What do you mean, oh, again, Stallone? I thought you were going to say, again, Expendables gets shafted. Every year. One year it wasn't eligible.
Starting point is 00:11:21 Stallone is the thinking man's Christopher Nolan. Always getting chapped by the Academy Award. I thought they were adding extra veins to the statues this year. It was based on his body, yeah. What else was snubbed, do you think, in your opinions? I thought Matt Damon could have been nominated as LeBeef. Yeah, LeBeef. I loved him in that.
Starting point is 00:11:46 Yeah, he was good. Who would you kick out, though? That's a strong category. No, there is someone in there that I was like, I love John Hawks in Missing Winter's Bone. I was very happy to see him in there. I didn't see it, but I heard it was great. Yeah, he's great in that.
Starting point is 00:11:59 I wouldn't kick anybody off. Kick somebody off, Sarah. Kick him! I mean, I don't want, I would feel bad, but I would say Mark Ruffalo.
Starting point is 00:12:10 I don't know. I just felt like he was very, he played his part very well. She was out. Paul Gere's had it. He's done.
Starting point is 00:12:17 What are you talking about? No! No! Everybody, on your feet, fight. I have nothing against him It was good
Starting point is 00:12:26 But I just was like I don't know That was just like A good performance And I thought He's always that good Awesome Ruffalo's always that good
Starting point is 00:12:32 That's all you have to say That's true He's always on the money You think it's like A scent of a woman Let's give him Something Yeah
Starting point is 00:12:39 A lifetime of genius He's only gonna get nominated He's not gonna win There's no way He's going to win. You know what I thought was a big fuck you was, not that I love this movie, but the animated category, there's only three movies nominated.
Starting point is 00:12:54 Yeah, they only give it to three because there's usually only five or six contenders a year. Oh, I thought they could give it up to four and this year it was only three. No, it's been three since they invented the category. Well, then Toy Story's nominated for animated and best movie. So it seems a little bit of a lock in best animated.
Starting point is 00:13:10 Yeah, a little bit. Sometimes that happens with a foreign film as well. Yeah. Beautiful. Is that how you pronounce it? Beautiful. B-I-U-T-I-F-U-L? Beautiful.
Starting point is 00:13:20 Beautiful. Beautiful. That movie is beautiful. I heard it's a fantastic movie. I did not see Black Swan because I was going to go see it and a friend of mine said, I go, what's it about? And he goes,
Starting point is 00:13:29 you don't need to see it. It's about this dancer and she keeps getting interrupted while she's trying to masturbate until she goes crazy. And you didn't want to see it? I was like, well, I got the movie there.
Starting point is 00:13:40 I'd be more excited about that movie if that's really what it was about. Unfortunately, it's also about ballet. We saw it together. We did see it together. You loved it, I didn't. I loved it too.
Starting point is 00:13:49 We had fun together, though. Can I say one movie that did not get nominated? In all sincerity, I thought the Joan Rivers movie, Piece of Work, was fucking incredible. And it didn't get nominated. So bummed to see it wasn't nominated.
Starting point is 00:13:59 Dude, wait for Superman to get nominated for a documentary. Everyone was shocked by that. I want Banksy to win so he shows up in a gorilla mask. That would be amazing. Please, just cut to a guy in a gorilla mask the entire ceremony. That would be the best thing. A guy in a tux, full on gorilla mask.
Starting point is 00:14:17 I'll take that up a notch. Dry humping Anne Hathaway. You should run up on stage no matter where she is and grab her and throw her down and dry hump her in a gorilla outfit. Throw her down?
Starting point is 00:14:29 That's rapey. It's Adrian Brody. I think dry humping is rapey also. I don't know why the throwing down part. It's apey and rapey. Grape apey.
Starting point is 00:14:40 Grape apey. We are an apey. Yeah. I was pretty happy with the Academy Award nominations, except for, I have to mention, because Edgar's here, that Scott Pilgrim was snubbed in all categories. What? And especially, they do this thing where they go, there are eight movies that are eligible for the special effects nomination.
Starting point is 00:15:01 No, even less. Here's the thing. It's seven movies. Seven movies. So only two weren't going to make the cut. I know. And you were in there. We, even less. Here's the thing. It's seven movies. Seven movies. So only two weren't going to make the cut. I know. And you were in there. We were in there.
Starting point is 00:15:09 Who's the other one that didn't make it? Tron Legacy and We Didn't Make It. Oh, fuck. Those were both better than Hereafter? Come on. Wait, Hereafter got the special effects? Special effects and serious movies don't count. No.
Starting point is 00:15:21 You were bad. Special effects need to be fun. Here's the thing that happens, though. You know what was cool? We got down to the last seven out of, I think, 350 films. But what's funny is that what they do... Oh, yeah, the effects in Bride Wars alone. Was that last year, Paul?
Starting point is 00:15:40 Two years ago. Okay, Paul was in that, everybody. Seriously, rent or download Bride Wars and just fast forward to Paul's scene. It's hilarious. Thank you very much. The whole time you're like, Paul Shearer's in Bride Wars.
Starting point is 00:15:54 What they do, and this is why I went to, what they do, which was pretty cool actually, is that at the Ampass Theater, they have a thing called the Bake Off where the seven finalists for VFX all present 15 minutes of the film and the visual effects supervisor has to talk about it so i sat there and we watched 15 minutes of like you know effects of tron legacy iron man 2 alice in
Starting point is 00:16:15 wonderland harry potter but i was thinking afterwards i was thinking wouldn't this be a good way of uh judging the dramatic competition as well and call it the cry off just have all of the heaviest bits and only show 15 minutes and yeah yeah like rabbit hole let's just show the parts where Nicole Kidman's face moved holy shit she's a I think she's a great actress and I'm sure she's it is but but isn't it like watching a movie about like she's crying about her dead four-year-old or whatever? I saw this.
Starting point is 00:16:46 She's had a lot of work done. One of the best movies ever. Such a bummer. It's too heavy. Did you see it? No, I'm talking about her face. I want to... Edgar, when you watched,
Starting point is 00:17:00 with no offense to those people, but when you watched the seven finalists, were you like, we got this locked up? No, you know what? It did feel like... He was nervous because the Academy is a bunch of old people. It did feel like, and this is a good thing, and I'm kind of proud of this, but it did feel like Scott Pilgrim was beaming in from Tokyo in the year 2020. It did stand out from the seven, which is a good thing.
Starting point is 00:17:25 You would think that would be the thing. In a snub case, a bad thing. Yeah. Yeah, but in the long haul, let's look at what's up with Hereafter 10 years from now and who's enjoying watching that over and over again. That would be nobody. Unless you're really like, I love tsunamis and all the terrible things that come with tsunamis. I was so excited to see it.
Starting point is 00:17:46 I'm never going to go see it. You were excited to see it? I was so excited. I couldn't wait for it to come out. And then it came out and I just forgot and I never went. No one was excited about it and I got bummed. Oh, wait. It came out too late.
Starting point is 00:18:00 Paul and I watched Season of the Witch. Ooh, yeah. Yeah, you watched that for your podcast, How Did This Turd Get Made? Yes. Wait, what's it called? It's How Did This Get Made. Just take out the turd. And the turd is implied. And we saw it
Starting point is 00:18:16 in the afternoon at the Grove to a kind of a packed cab. And we walked in and we're like, what the fuck are you people doing here? Tuesday afternoon at two o'clock. That's the demo of that movie is The Unemployed. Oh, that's true.
Starting point is 00:18:31 The saddest people alive are going to see Season of the Witch. Give me an extra big Coke and two tickets to Season of the Witch. And then I want to go see A Bride War. Now, wait. I'm curious. My wife wrote this movie. In Bride Wars, were you in the... I don't want to go see a bride war. Now, wait, I'm curious. Were you...
Starting point is 00:18:45 My wife wrote this movie. In Bride Wars, were you in the... Wait, let me ask. In Bride Wars... That is a good point. His wife did write the movie. In Bride Wars, were you part of the Empire or the Rebel Alliance?
Starting point is 00:18:58 I was... The thing was, I was a rogue agent. I was like a Han Solo character. All right, okay. Sold. Yeah, Season of the Witch was puzzling. Yes, I was a rogue agent. I was like a Han Solo character. All right, okay. Sold. Yeah, season of The Witch was puzzling. Yes, it was, because there was no witches. None.
Starting point is 00:19:11 That is a major thing. It turns out it was not witch season at all. Yeah. That would be like watching Scott Pilgrim, and there was never a character named Scott Pilgrim. At all. At all. We just named it that.
Starting point is 00:19:22 Whatever. Yeah, yeah. The witch is aim. At all. We just named it that. Whatever. Yeah. Yeah. It was... The witch is a demon. Spoiler. Is that something they realize in the movie? Like, oh my God, the witch is a demon.
Starting point is 00:19:35 Yeah. They realize it at the end. But it's like it wasn't a season of witch. It was one. Isn't witch and demon like kind of six in one? Season of the witch.
Starting point is 00:19:43 No. What do you think? Oh yeah, I guess the season of Did you want it to be called season of a witch? I thought it was like season of witches. Like, you know,
Starting point is 00:19:50 it was the season the witches come out. I would have gone if it was season of Chip Witch. I love those things. Those are really good. Sarah, you've got a movie coming out
Starting point is 00:20:04 called Peep Show. Peep World. Listen, I know what it's called. I heard about you working on it for several weeks. Peep World. And it's going to be on video on demand starting February 18th. I didn't know that. From IFC Films.
Starting point is 00:20:23 Oh. Yeah. Well, I'm here to tell you that. February 18th? February 18th from IFC Films. Yeah, I'm here to tell you that. February 18th? February 18th. And IFC Films is the same people that brought us the Joan Rivers documentary. I loved that.
Starting point is 00:20:35 And this movie isn't bad. Oh, wow, that's a nice... So you've seen it? Yeah, I saw it. The Toronto Film Festival. Whoa. And you liked it? I really liked it, but my expectations were low.
Starting point is 00:20:53 When did they become low? After you did the movie? Were they ever high where you're like, oh, I like this script? And then when you're shooting it, like, oh, this is bad. And then you were like, oh, it's not that bad. Where did it go? Oh, you can't talk about it. Yeah, but I mean, ooh, this is bad. And then you were like, oh, it's not that bad. Where did it go? Yeah, a little bit. Oh, you can't talk about it. Yeah, but I mean, all the actors are great.
Starting point is 00:21:08 And we all became friends and loved each other. But it was a bonding experience. Who else is in it? Mark Ruffalo? Mike C. Hall. Nice. Maybe you've heard of him, Dexter. Guy in the audience.

Starting point is 00:21:56 Now it's just Michael Seahawks for his middle name. And he and another guy who you know, Ben Schwartz, and Rainn Wilson, and myself play siblings. And we went to see John Lithgow's one-man show recently together. All of you? No, the three, not Rainn, but the other three. You and Ben and... And Mike the Big.

Starting point is 00:23:45 I love what he's doing with Red State. I think it's brilliant. I love that he took it to Sundance and was like, okay, none of you can have it and he bought it for $20. He bought his own movie
Starting point is 00:23:52 and he's going to release it himself because he said it's ridiculous that he would sell it to a studio who would then spend $20 million marketing it wrong and then say like it didn't make its money back
Starting point is 00:24:01 so he just decided he just bought his own movie for $20 and he's just going to release it himself. So he financed it and then bought it. I make its money back. So he just decided he just bought his own movie for 20 bucks and he's just going to release it himself. So he financed it and bought it. I guess so, yeah.

Chris Hardwick brought a bunch of crap he doesn't want. No, I'm paying it forward. I'm paying it forward, yeah. Composition, which is... No, it's We're Alive. Composition is...
Starting point is 00:27:00 Oh, We're Alive. Oh, I see. We're Alive, the complete first season of an award-winning audio drama. Yeah, it's a serialized audio drama. It's not what you said backstage. Not unlike this show. We're on stage now. And then there's a t-shirt for, what's that for?
Starting point is 00:27:14 Amy's Ice Cream. I bought that shirt at Amy's Ice Cream in Austin, which is super awesome ice cream. And I bought a small, I said, I like a small t-shirt. I told you not to tell this story. It would look cute on this girl in the yellow. It really would. Well, maybe you should play for her, Sarah. Would you like to try it on?
Starting point is 00:27:30 And also, he brought Hijinks in Sioux, Volume 1, Godspeed, You Fancy Bastard by Joel Watson. And Sean Sacamai brought some items, which is delightful of him.

Starting point is 00:28:16 can I just ask wait Doug can I ask you a quick question please I want to ask a quick question about this
Starting point is 00:28:20 I'm Still Here movie yes they kept the facade up for years and then right before the movie came out, Casey Affleck was like, yeah, none of it was real.
Starting point is 00:28:27 Like, why would you fucking... Not the weekend of release. Yeah, wait a couple weeks. Wait a couple weeks or never tell people that. Let them try to figure it out for themselves. I will say, though... Learn from Banksy.
Starting point is 00:28:37 Yes. There is a very uncomfortable moment, though, about something about Mary in there because he has a meeting with Ben Stiller and he starts yelling at Ben Stiller about why would he put a cat in a cast? And when something about Mary,
Starting point is 00:28:50 you put a cat in a full cast, that's cruelty to animals. And he's like really like laying into Ben Stiller and then he gets up and leaves and Ben Stiller's like,
Starting point is 00:28:58 it was a dog. But that's the only fun part of the movie. Yeah, that's the movie. I haven't seen it. I haven't seen the movie. But also, Sean brought a copy of Kick-Ass. Ooh, great. Which, as you all know, is my second favorite movie from last year.

Nice faggoty sign, queer. I wanna go with the person who's having the epileptic seizure in the center there. Someone's having a seizure?
Starting point is 00:32:19 It looked like it. Pass it down. Pass it down. Oh, it was not ready to be ripped off. All right, Sean still has to pick somebody. Pick someone. Pick someone named
Starting point is 00:32:28 Ruzi. All right, let's go with Patrick. Ruzi's been here a bunch of times. He's a good guy. Don't spoil Ruzi. Oh, he's playing
Starting point is 00:32:35 for Ruzi. That's weird. Who'd you pick, Sean? I picked Patrick. You took his phone? Yes, and he loves movies, too. That's awesome.
Starting point is 00:32:44 People love to put it on their phone. Patrick, you know you're not getting that back, right? You'll get the cheaper model. I feel so bad. I know you're like, you know, you're, it's so embarrassing but I'm like way too old for this but all I can think when somebody
Starting point is 00:33:01 British is talking is like oh my god, they have an accent. I have not gotten past that point. It's so sad. Like, I can't, I don't, I'm not hearing anything you say. Because while you talk, I'm just like dazzled. That's all I'm hearing is. You'll just completely collapse if he uses the word corridor.
Starting point is 00:33:25 Because he says it amazingly. Say it, Edgar. Corridor. Oh my god. I did it extra sexy. I just am too dazzled to just hear it like words. Corridor.
Starting point is 00:33:40 Corridor. Alright, so we're not going to do this elimination style Sarah was worried she'd be kicked out first I wasn't worried What we're going to do Is first person to two points So where you're sitting
Starting point is 00:33:56 Could have a lot to do with How it goes down We'll start with you Sarah You get to pick the first category Would you like American Redo? That's movies that were made in other countries and then Americans made their shitty version of it. Would you like
Starting point is 00:34:11 Animals That Don't Talk? That's movies that feature an animal that doesn't speak. In words, in English. Like Jaws. Or, like Jaws would be an example. Thanks for pre-guessing, Edgar. Sorry.
Starting point is 00:34:28 It could be Jaws 2. It could be Jaws 2. It could be 3D or The Revenge. Just for The Revenge. Or would you like... Somebody go back and re-dub Jaws so it does have a voice? Sorry.
Starting point is 00:34:41 Sorry. Sorry. You know what you do, I bite your head off, Ben Johnson. They have you do every extra possible thing. Is that his name, Ben Johnson? I love eating oil barrels. You're right. You did need a bigger boat, Chop.
Starting point is 00:34:58 What says you threw it in my mouth? Oh, I exploded. Why am I still talking? Okay, or Friday, the day this show plops, is Alan Alda's birthday. So movies featuring Alan Alda. Those are your three
Starting point is 00:35:13 choices. Animals, Alda, American Redo. Fuck. I would go for... Yeah, it's a serious... I wonder if there's one movie that combines all three categories. I wouldn't be surprised if there was. Yeah. But maybe not.
Starting point is 00:35:27 All right. Okay, Sarah, which one would you like? Let's see. I'm deciding between Redo and Alda. That's good that you're narrowing it down for us. I'll go Alda. Oh, Alan Alda. All right.
Starting point is 00:35:39 Who's liking an Alan Alda movie from 78, 89, or 96? These are all 1900s. We're all 1900s. I feel like I know what all three of those would be. Okay, well pick one that you're really sure about and take this thing home. Let's go 96. Okay. 96.
Starting point is 00:36:02 Len Maltin gives this two and a half stars. I heartily disagree. It's better than that. two and a half stars. I heartily disagree. It's better than that. It's a lot better. You heartily disagree. I heartily... No, you will as well. Yeah, I will.
Starting point is 00:36:12 I predict. Two and a half stars from 1996. Let me give you a couple of clues. Pick out a couple of things that don't totally give it away. He calls it offbeat. He calls it offbeat. And he says that... He gives extra kudos to Alan Alda for his performance. That's a shitty clue.
Starting point is 00:36:33 The category is Alan Alda and the clue is Alan Alda's goodness. That's a good point. I'll give another clue. He calls it a cut above the norm What does that mean? And there are 13 names Sarah Silverman, how many names do you think you can get it in? Four
Starting point is 00:36:56 Whoa Nice opening bid, we go to Sean Wow, she really screwed me on this I have no idea what this is And I really don't want to let her guess. I probably. I've got no choice. I've got to say name that movie. Whoa. I like that.
Starting point is 00:37:12 Sacamai. Why is your name Snap the Jap on Twitter? It seems racist. Oh, you're Snap the Jap. You're Snap the Jap. Look at that. Twitter worlds colliding. I like that.
Starting point is 00:37:27 Snap is a nickname my brother gave me, and Jap is half Japanese heritage. I like rhyme scheme. Put them together. You get a nice racist sandwich. Exactly, exactly. Get a slogan from World War II. Isn't Snap...
Starting point is 00:37:41 Never mind. Isn't there something with Snap in it that's like Asian racist? Here's your clues again. Jack is racist. I'm sorry I brought it up. This movie has Alan Alda in it, Sarah. And he's real good in it. Two and a half stars.
Starting point is 00:37:58 I disagree. Fuck! And a couple other things. I'm definitely going to lose Because I like this game It's offbeat And it's Yeah It's cut above
Starting point is 00:38:09 And there's 13 It's cut above It's a 13 person cast Yeah you get 4 out of the 13 names Here we go Your names are John Ford Noonan Who the fuck is that?
Starting point is 00:38:19 David Patrick Kelly Don't know who that is He's great He's a great character actor He was He's in the Warriors He's in was... He's in The Warriors. He's in The Warriors. He's the one that goes, Warriors come out to play.
Starting point is 00:38:29 Oh, I know. It's Warriors 2. Stop it. It's not your turn. Alan Alda is Jaws. Why did I eat this guy's tennis shoe? If it's funny, it bends. If it's not funny, it breaks. Oh, fuck. So it's funny, it bends. If it's not funny, it breaks. Oh, fuck. So it's not that?
Starting point is 00:38:49 Oh, that's what you thought it was? Oh, no! All right, we've narrowed it down to not crimes and misdemeanors. That was the 89 one. Your other two names are Glenn Fitzgerald and Celia Watson. I'm sorry, Weston.
Starting point is 00:39:04 Oh, I love Celia Weston. Did anyone see the other Mall Cop movie? She was good in that. I love that movie. She's great at that as Rogan's mother. Oh my god, she's funny.
Starting point is 00:39:18 I'm gonna stick I'm gonna be wrong, but I'm gonna stick with Woody Allen and say Manhattan Murder Mysteries. Okay. I'll give you the rest of the names. You guys tell me when you know it. Richard Jenkins, Josh Brolin.
Starting point is 00:39:32 Can I guess what it is? Yes. Flying with Disaster. That's correct. That was a good one. It was sexy the way he said disaster. Disaster. Motherfucker.
Starting point is 00:39:44 Nicely done, Edgar. But Sean gets the point. Sean gets the point. Well played, Sean. I love that movie. We start with Edgar. I know, right? It's a great movie.
Starting point is 00:39:54 All right, Edgar. Your chance to get in the game. It's also Elijah Wood's birthday on Friday. Wilfred. Movies featuring Elijah Wood. Jason Gann. Entertainment Weekly did an article of underrated movies, according to writers at Entertainment Weekly,
Starting point is 00:40:12 so that's a category, underrated movies. And then fictional. Tonight, while we're taping this, the president did the State of the Union address. So since we're all ignoring politics. And since he voted. And since he is a fictional president, I thought...
Starting point is 00:40:28 I thought we'd go with fictional president movies. These are movies where the president is a person who's never been president and was just made up for the movie. Or Morgan Freeman movies, that category could be. Yes, that's another name for the category. Which one would you like, Edgar? Let's name for the category. Which one would you like, Edgar?
Starting point is 00:40:45 Let's go for Elijah Wood. All right. Would you like an Elijah Wood movie from 89, 97, or 2006? 97. All right. Two and a half stars from Len Maltin. Missed the boat again, Len. If you're listening, Len, you fucking blew it.
Starting point is 00:41:08 Now get back on your respirator. He doesn't listen. I made out with him. Yeah, she made out with him on the night of Too Many Stars on Comedy Central. Yeah, I forgot to mention that last time. You got up in that big old beard. Wow. Did you give him two and a half stars?
Starting point is 00:41:26 Yeah. Shut up. I would have given him three. He calls this movie sober and... What? Sober and absorbing. The Bounty Towel? Sober.
Starting point is 00:41:40 Sober. Sober and absorbing. From the creators of Snakes and Ladders. And he also says And this is a great Great line Last line of the review A film one could admire Without actually enjoying
Starting point is 00:41:54 What the fuck is that? Two and a half stars 1997 What was the category? Oh Elijah Wood is in it How many names Do you think you get it in, Edgar Wright, out of 12 names? I'm not sure what order the cast is, so I'm going to say zero names.
Starting point is 00:42:14 Okay, now it goes down to Paul Scheer. Edgar Wright's zero names bit doesn't really mean anything for him because he's already in the Tournament of Championships. Name that movie. I'm going to say name that movie. Paul, if you go negative one. Yeah, there's no possible way. You have no idea? Oh, movie. But Paul, if you go negative one, you have no idea? Yeah, there's no possible way.
Starting point is 00:42:26 Oh, well, yeah. If I could say negative one, go Elijah Wood. No. No. He might not be the lead. You're right. No, name that movie.
Starting point is 00:42:35 All right, Edgar, show off to everybody. I could be wrong. The Ice Storm. Ice Storm is correct. Wow. Is Kevin Kline the top build?
Starting point is 00:42:45 Kevin Kline is number one build. But reading from the bottom, it's kind of crazy. Katie Holmes is the last build person. I don't even remember her being in that. And then there's also some other pretty good names in there. Tobey Maguire is pretty low on the list. Jamie Sheridan, Christina Ricci. Who played the little kid that had a sexual connection with?
Starting point is 00:43:05 It was Elijah. It was Toby, Elijah, and Christina Ricci were the kids that were all kind of... It wasn't Elijah. Yeah, it's Elijah and Christina Ricci, isn't it? There's a younger... No, but there's... Oh, Jean-Pierre Ramsey. Oh!
Starting point is 00:43:17 What? Adam Hanford. Too soon. Right, I'm sorry. Too soon. That kid was amazing. Sorry. So sorry. All right, that was fun. That was incredible. So Sean has a point. I kid was amazing. Sorry. So sorry.
Starting point is 00:43:25 All right, that was fun. That was incredible. So Sean has a point. I feel the energy. He's good at this. I wonder his last name's right. Am I right? Am I right?
Starting point is 00:43:34 Nailed it. Nailed it. Nailed it. All right, so we start with Chris Hardwick. Shit, I'm not going to. Wait. What about Paul? You were in it already.
Starting point is 00:43:41 You just challenged him and lost, so suck it. Sorry, Caitlin. Boy, that is Ruffalo-level anger there, Paul. Just a little intention. I thought the Hulk was going to be. Shit. Don't make me slightly annoyed. I'm angry with you, but.
Starting point is 00:44:02 He just gets kind of green, then then he just like walks away with envy yeah well that's it we're out of time thank you for coming everybody right all right all right it's okay you want keep that amazing riff going it was pretty awesome would you like in theaters now that's movies that are in theaters now America redo or animals that don't Talk? Oh, I gotta do Animals That Don't Talk. You have to, right? Yes.
Starting point is 00:44:27 Because you played a talking animal in one thing. I did. Presumably, nearly all movies have animals that don't talk in them.
Starting point is 00:44:34 They do quite often, but it's not normally the titular animal. Oh, I got you. I'm right. Yeah. Like Benji goes to Marine World, you would expect Benji to talk,
Starting point is 00:44:43 but he doesn't. No. He's just at Marine World having himself a time. Dog scuba suit. Google it. It's the best image you'll ever see.
Starting point is 00:44:51 What? Benji in a scuba suit. Would you like a non-talking animal? I'm a talking cow in a cartoon. What? No, he was a cow who has udders, even though he's a male cow.
Starting point is 00:45:00 I did a show for Nickelodeon for years. I played a talking cow. Barnyard? Back of the barnyard? Yeah. I played a talking cow. Doyard? Back of the barnyard? Yeah. I played a talking cow named Otis. Do it.
Starting point is 00:45:08 I'm doing it now! Yeah! This is me. This is Otis! Would you like, Otis, would you like a... Doug, it's me, Chris. From 65, 92, or 2000? 65, uh...
Starting point is 00:45:24 Oh, shit. 65, 92, or 2000? 65. Oh, shit. I bet I know what the 65. 92 or 2000. Let's do 65. Whoa. Leonard Ball gives us three stars. I'll give you some clues. There's an exclamation point in the title.
Starting point is 00:45:43 Uh-huh. Yeah, so it's very excited about this titular animal. And Leonard calls it long but entertaining suspense comedy. What? Long but entertaining suspense comedy.
Starting point is 00:45:58 And there are nine names. The Maltese Falcon does not have an exclamation mark. How many names do you think you can get, Chris Hardwick? I'll say five. Five names. Sarah Silverman?
Starting point is 00:46:17 Use your microphone. Use your stage voice. This is my... I either challenge him, which I will not know the answer. Yeah. But then I want my terminal. How many names did he say? Five?
Starting point is 00:46:30 Five. Yeah, so you can say name that movie. You might get a point if he doesn't do it. All right, name that movie. I think he's going to do it. Oh. Excellente. I thought I know what it was,
Starting point is 00:46:43 but the suspense thing is throwing me off Ed Wynn is in this movie don't you know he does play a talking animal Frank Gorshin is in this movie that wasn't a really good Frank Gorshin impression but he of course was the Riddler on the Batman TV show
Starting point is 00:47:02 and the voice of Freddy in Scooby Doo William Demarest. Uh-huh. Yeah. From the fucking I Love Lucy. No, no. Not. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:10 My Three Sons. Yeah, My Three Sons. Close enough. Elsa Lanchester. From Brian Frankenstein. Ooh, Elsa Lanchester. And Neville Brand. Who, I believe one of his last movies was The Adventures of Baron Munchausen.
Starting point is 00:47:23 Oh, my God. I'm going to get a point. I'm so excited. Yeah, you are because this is not the movie I thought it was. No idea?
Starting point is 00:47:29 I thought it was 1965. What did you think it was? I thought it was the Disney movie with Dean Jones and Suzanne Plachette
Starting point is 00:47:35 about the dachshunds. Oh, what's that called? Dogs. Crazy Dachshund Times. I don't remember. Flying Dobermans?
Starting point is 00:47:42 No, it was... I thought he was in a movie about ducks. Well, he did a lot of animal... Million Dollar Duck. He did a lot of animal biopics. There was a dachshund one, too? Yeah, there was a dachshund one, too. It's live action, right? Oh, I know. Hot Dog the Movie. No, that was a ski romp. Oh, right.
Starting point is 00:47:58 Alright, so you have no other guests in the movie with Tom Jones? Dean Jones. Who? Dean Jones? Yeah, Dean Jones. Well, it's funny you should say that because Dean Jones is the second build in this movie. Can I guess what a movie with Tom Jones. Dean Jones. Dean Jones? Yeah, Dean Jones. Well, it's funny you should say that because Dean Jones is the second build in this movie. Can I guess what it is? And Edgar would like to guess what it is. Well, the thing is that a suspense comedy is throwing me off.
Starting point is 00:48:14 Right? Is it That Darn Cat? Yes, it is. God damn. That's not a suspense comedy. He did so many of Dean Jones. I saw it on cable in my hotel room the other day. Would you call that a suspense comedy?
Starting point is 00:48:27 Is the cat from outer space? I saw it in my hotel room, and it has long scenes where I watch 15 minutes before you even see the fucking cat. And it's midway through the movie. But it's like there's these bad henchmen, played by Frank Gorshin and another guy, who are constantly threatening to kill people, even though it's like a Disney movie about a cat that saw them murder a dude
Starting point is 00:48:47 and the cat so the cat's the main witness in the crime. And so Dean Jones tries to cozy up to the girl who owns the cat to get the cat
Starting point is 00:48:54 to testify. I'm gonna cut off your head and jerk off down your throat. Dean Jones did all those he did like
Starting point is 00:49:02 the Shaggy Dog the Shaggy DA he did that the Doxan movie I don he did that the Doxin movie I don't remember what the Doxin movie is called isn't he in the Love Bug as well Dean Joseph
Starting point is 00:49:08 yes he is the ugly Doxin the ugly Doxin there's no such thing as an ugly Doxin no that's like calling a movie Unstoppable
Starting point is 00:49:17 fuck which is an Academy Award nominee by the way that and the Wolfman and Salt all got Academy Award nominations, by the way. That and The Wolfman and Salt all got Academy Award nominations. For most unlikely movies to get nominated
Starting point is 00:49:30 for Academy Award. They're just all in weird technical categories and will lose to Inception. Please don't rub in Salt. Oh, I'm sorry. Don't rub the Salt in. Yes! Nailed it! Nice!
Starting point is 00:49:43 So what just happened? Who got a point? Sarah did. Oh, Sarah did. So Sarah's got a point. Sean's got a point. Edgar's got a point. And you two are pointless. You tried to guess it and you're wrong, so let's start with Sean. Alright, Sean, would you like In Theaters Now,

Edgar? What were the clues? Low expectations and... And that people are more talented than the movie. People involved. How many names did you say? Five. It's in theaters now. I think I know what it is.
Starting point is 00:51:39 I'm going to go... What did you say? Five names. How many names? Only nine. There's nine. I'll go three names. Two.
Starting point is 00:51:47 Paul Scheer says two. Confident two from Scheer. Hardwick. Name that movie, Paul. All right. All right, Paul. Your two names are Talia Balsam and Mindy Kaling. No strings attached.

Starting point is 00:52:29 Underrated. Underrated. Is that of old time or specific time? You know, Entertainment Weekly kind of does from around when they started publishing. Like, they try to do more modern stuff. What are you going to say? Do you want one from this year, this year, this year? I'll give you the years.
Starting point is 00:52:43 Yeah. Does underrated mean they gave it a PG but they showed people fucking in it? Whoopsie! You are so precocious. His true grit was underrated. They gave that PG-13 and it's super violent. Yeah, when he shoots that cornbread, I was like, what?
Starting point is 00:53:02 They gave... Really? You think it was underrated? And they gave Yeah, when he shoots that cornbread, I was like, what? And they gave King's speech an R because of one scene where he goes, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck. It's not even in a sexual context, and it's an extremely educational movie. So there's my point. You only allowed one non-sexual, non-threatening fuck in a PG-13. You know what I always want to do is make a PG-13 movie and then have it all be clean and then on the last like over the credits
Starting point is 00:53:30 just have somebody go FUCK! Just the one time. Because you can have that one. Sarah and I did a movie called School for Scoundrels. Thank you very much. And I remember they used to obsess over when they could
