Doug hates candy wrappers, He likes them when he's eating them. He doesn't like the food he eats. He thinks he'll have one, But he won't eat a lot of food. Hey, hey, hey, everybody. I gotta brace myself for what's about to happen. I feel like you guys are gonna be powerful. My name is Doug, and I love movies. to happen. I feel like you guys are going to be powerful.

My name is Doug and I love movies. This is the Call of Duty series. Wow. Coming to you for the first time from the Leicester Square Theatre. In what I'm guessing is always under construction

Leicester Square, in London, England, UK! First UK show! I've done stand-up in a little one TV show here, and this is the first time I've podcasted, and it's 1620 on Saturday, 8 August. Yeah, 1620-ish. 2015.

Let me see your name tags, London. I feel like, yep, every single person brought a name tag. Except for I got a few tweets from people who forgot theirs before they got on a train or something. But thank you guys for bringing those. And good luck to everybody in being selected today. I'm having a great holiday here. I saw Bradley Cooper in The Elephant Man on Thursday. Yeah, Cooper was super duper But I prefer the story as told in the David Lynch movie

If you, you know, who cares? You guys aren't going to run out to see It's the last performance tonight Did anybody here see the Elephant Man? Here in the West End? Did you like it? Yeah, okay he comes out he's all like in his underwear and he's just standing there all bradley cooper normal style

and then and then the doctor character starts to describe the elephant man's problems and then he starts acting them out and then you're like oh that's going to be uncomfortable for him for the next uh couple of hours. I don't know how he does it. And then last night I saw Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, which someone tweeted to me, you're going to be disappointed. And I was like, what? How could it possibly?

Well, he was right. I think it's like Spider-Man in New York played for several years in spite of the fact everybody hated it because little kids are just like, I want to see Spider-Man. And I was surrounded by children who didn't seem to give a shit the entire time. The only things they seemed to enjoy were whenever confetti would come into the audience.

They enjoyed that. They enjoyed the smoke. There was a smoke machine sequence, and the kids are all like, oh, smoke! Finally something to care about! My great impression of a British child. Anyway, I guess it's not that terrible, but I was just disappointed that like the first movie, the first version of Charlie, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory was a musical. And the songs are great. And this version, they're like,

let's write new ones. And so that's what they did. And I did not care for that. Now it's time for Tweet Relief. Tweets about movies. At Floating Hatchet tweeted, Rebecca Ferguson takes her shoes off so much in Mission Impossible Rogue Nation

I thought it was a Quentin Tarantino movie. This has been a treat relief, foot fetish edition. From the corrections department, the corrections department doesn't care which Adam Sandler movie Steve Buscemi was in. But thank you for your concern. When I get back to the States, I'm doing shows in New York City. he was in. But thank you for your concern. When I get back to the States, I'm doing shows in New York City.

That's this Monday. And then Kansas City, Missouri. Oh, New York City's sold out, so forget I mentioned that. Kansas City, Missouri and more cities to come, of course. Douglovesmovies.com for all of that. Let's look in the prize bag, you guys. You made the effort to make name tags

and get here from very, very far distances. Who think they came from the furthest to be here? And not like you lived in the States and now you live here. Not that sort of thing, but like who traveled the furthest? Is there anyone? Australia?

Just for this or you were coming here anyway? Just for this. Because I'll do it in Australia someday, maybe. Sure, why not? I like it down under. This time I decided to go over instead of under. And what about, somebody said they drove like 24 hours or something? Yeah, 24-hour bus trip. 24-hour bus trip? You're insane. You could just listen to this for free tomorrow. But thank you for coming, dude. In the prize bag, I'm not going to take the rubber bands off,

but it's a poster for the movie Birdman that somebody gave me, and I flew all the way over here with it. And so the ends are extremely dented from being in my luggage, but if you frame it, it'll look perfect. Or you could just throw it out. I brought one of my CDs and then a couple other CDs from the same record label that I'm on, one by Guy Branum and another one by, I want to say, what's his name? It doesn't have his name on it, just his face. I want to say it's Zach Selwyn, I think is his name.

But anyway, very funny dude. I think he does funny raps. This is something I got in Traverse City. And if you've heard Doug Lowe's movies from Traverse City, Michigan, we talked about it on an episode a year or two ago. The first time I visited them, they always give me a bag full of stuff from around the area, products and stuff.

These are what look like cookies in the shape of Michigan, but they're actually dog treats. I don't know why you'd put fucking frosting on a dog treat, because dogs are just, they'll just eat it without the frosting.

They're not going to complain. But I ate every single one of them. Probably the first two times that I visited there. They're not terrible, but mostly because of the icing. So that's in the prize bag. This is something I got while I was here, a goofy Pez dispenser. For the listeners, it's goofy, the character.

It's not just a goofy. I mean, I guess they're all goofy when you think about it. Some packs, some coffee packets from my hotel room. And maybe the ultimate gift from someone who traveled all this way for this show. The airline I was on gives you a bag full of, you know, things to, do they, on the 24 hour bus ride, do they give you something with deodorant and toothpaste and a toothbrush and stuff? That is rude. Look, even some tissues. But I think the bag is useful for something, maybe.

So that's in the prize bag. And then, of course, my guests have brought stuff as well. So we bring them out here? All right, you guys. These are all three first-time guests on the show. So be kind to them and give a big warm welcome to Richard Shanling, Roisin Kanati, and Scroobius Pip. I'm glad I managed to get three people you're familiar with. John Lithgow sends his regrets for not being able to be here. I don't know why it's weird to say that in front of the guests that are

here, but I just wanted to mention it because he's such a nice man. He was on my show a few years ago in Los Angeles and he's always pledged to come back and he's always in a different city or country than I am and he's working on a project here in London currently and for just a few days had to go back to New York City for some reason, where I just was and I'm just about to be. We're just completely missing each other, so he sends his warm regards to you guys for coming out. But let's meet these three people, first up also so polite none of them win the Pete Holmes award

Which I appreciate because my voice is still fucked up Roisin Kanati is here everybody Waving politely And so everywhere you go you have to tell people it's pronounced Roisin, because it's certainly spelled, it's tricky. Irish, it's an Irish name, it's spelled like raisin. Roisin Conaty, yeah. If raisin was spelled with an O. When I say that to people, it's like raisin with an O, they go, cool.

Where's the O? It doesn't make it easier. Is it like hoisin? Oh, raisin. What's that? Hoisin. Yeah, right? Hoisin sauce.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. With an R. That's what I thought, maybe. I don't know. And you, of course, are a very successful stand-up comedian. You won the Newcomer Award at Edinburgh a few years back. Yeah. Is that correct? Yeah.

Yeah, that's right. Super cocky about it. I like that. And that's another thing that I did, I guess, wrong, is scheduling this show opposite the Edinburgh Festival. Like, people were like, good luck getting guests, idiot.

Idiot with an O. And, uh, but I'm pretty happy with myself. I think it came together nicely. And are you a big movie fan? Big movie fan. Big, big movie fan. I did film it at uni. What? movie fan big big movie fan as it film it at uni what this fell out of the bag if anybody needs to pick their teeth let me know

gotta make sure that gets in there um what and roshin what did you bring for the prize bag? It's an interesting item. It looks worse than it is. I brought a hair wand for those beachy hair days. And it's just, you don't use it anymore? You have another one?

I'm upgraded, mate. You didn't bring the nicer one? No. I'm not a lunatic. Well, that's terrific. But maybe let's give it that personalized touch. Why don't you sign it? Okay, but it's going to go in someone's hair. Someone's just going to have raisin

written in their hair. Is that a raisin in your hair? There you go. All right, here we go. And while you do that, we'll meet our next guest. Richard Chandling is here, everybody. Hello.

I have to look at my notes to see your, because your Twitter name isn't your regular name. Your Twitter name is squat underscore Betty. Yeah. What's that about? Well, before the internet was popular, I decided to choose all my usernames, not realizing you had to have more clever,

better, easy, findable usernames, but it's a reference to a whiff nail and I. A whiff nail and I? Yeah, yeah. There's going to be a weird delay after a lot of things that are said.

Probably not in the other direction. Thank you very much for signing that. Oh, here, I'll grab it. Sorry, I didn't mess with it. All right. And Richard,

what did you bring for the prize bag? I brought three bag? I brought three things. I brought a four disc box set of historical epics including Barabbas,

The Conqueror, Spartacus and Gladiator. The Alan Dean Foster novelization of Alien. And a mixtape of 11 hours worth of film music that I played before my film shows in London, which has been signed

by everyone up here, so that's well worth playing for. There you go. Terrific. That's great stuff for the prize bag. I'm fascinated by this Alien book. He did all three of them. And Crash of the Titans. But he didn't write

the actual screenplays for any of those films. No, no. This is the, you know, he watched the film and then wrote a book based on what happens.

So you know how in the film you see like John Hurt get the thing in his face? In the book you get to hear, oh, it hurt! You know, because obviously you don't get you get to hear, oh it hurt! You know because obviously you don't get that from watching Alien that it's painful.

Yeah, I guess just to draw you in there's an excerpt from the book on the first page before the title page and it starts with, oh god it hurts so bad. It hurts, it hurts. Which interestingly enough is the first sentence of Fifty Shades of Grey.

I don't know how popular that is over here, that book. I saw Alien here, performed by bus drivers from Dorset. In this room. Best show I've ever seen. It was incredible. They just act the whole thing out? And they are bad. But they do it for charity and it's one of the best things you'll ever see. If you get a chance to see it.

There's a lot of running in spaceship corridors in that movie. How do they recreate that? There's a lot of blackouts. Why they put boxes together. They actually just release a cat and try and find it. Jonesy! Alright, well you had me on your Twitter bio, Richard,

at the very first thing you wrote on there is VHS Enthusiast. Yes. That's pretty impressive. And then you can be people can check you out at theawesommovieguy.com well yeah go big or go home

that's what I say yeah when you say theawesommovieguy.com are you saying that you're an awesome guy or that the movies are awesome

a little bit of both okay fair enough and Scroobius Pip is here you guys hello fair enough and Scroobius Pip is here you guys hello hip hop artist spoken word artist

podcaster all of those things and available today yeah so perfect Yeah, it's all bloody lift-go. So perfect. And how do you prefer to be... I know Scroobius Pip is your stage name, performance name.

Pip's easy, it's just Pip. Pip is the shortest, just Pip. I was going to guess Mr. Pip. Mr. Pip's fine. I like that. If we're feeling formal. All right. I'll probably change it up throughout the show. Do.

I mean, you've already pronounced Rasheen's name four different ways. It's like jazz. I just realized I have some scrooby snacks if you're interested. Perfect. Perfect. I wanted to run something by you that someone tweeted this morning that I was curious about.

Somebody named Dan Bibliotech wrote on Twitter about you. He was honking up all over the shop. So I'm already lost. I don't know what honking up all over the shop means on his last potty, which I love. I'm going to use the word potty from now on to describe podcasts.

And then he finished it with, better get yourself some wet wipes. Wow. What did you say on your potty that would make someone think that I ain't going to some wet wipes. Wow. What did you say on your potty that would make someone think that I ain't going to need wet wipes when you're on my show? Oh, we did a masturbation special.

And that is the best way to clean up. I don't know which one that could have been, but yeah, that sounds nice. I'm glad he was honking up rather than down. No one wants to honk down. No, you're the one that was honking up. Oh, I was honking up rather than down. No one wants to honk down. No, you're the one that was honking up. Oh, I was honking up.

Shit. You don't know what honking up is either? No. Sounds like, I mean, he could have just wrote talking up, I guess. Yeah. Because did you mention that you were going to be on this show on your show? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I may have.

No, I mentioned on Twitter. I mentioned on Twitter I gave the game away. All right. Quite inappropriately. No, I mentioned on Twitter. I mentioned on Twitter I gave the game away. All right. Quite inappropriately. No, that's all right. That happens more than I'd like. Let's start with Roisin.

Thank you guys, all of you, for being here. And Roisin, the first question I put to you is have you been to the cinema? Have you seen a movie? Can I give you my stuff in the bag?

Oh, yeah, the prize bag. I have listened. I was like, your presence is enough, Scroobius. I've got a few things. Scroobius is my favorite teacher at Hogwarts, by the way. So I bought the book of Submarine, which was turned into an awesome film by a guy called, it was written by Joe Dunthorne,

and it was awesome. So I bought that. I bought a comic of The Wicked and the Divine, which is being turned into a TV show, it was written by Joe Dunthorne and it was awesome. So I bought that. I bought a comic of the wicked and the divine, which is being turned into a TV show. But it's really good. I just had two of them. I bought my own DVD because I'm promoting myself. And I bought a replica of the jacket from Drive.

Wait a second. That might be the... No offense to anyone who brought a mixtape or a hair curling device, but... That might be the greatest... I feel like at a dinner party and I'm showing up with a rat. No, no, no. Like fucking John Lithgow wouldn't even have brought something this awesome. No, the beauty of it,

the beauty of it is it appears to be a really good prize, but having bought it myself, you realise there's not a lot you can do with it. Like you can't turn up to see your mates wearing the jacket from Drive. So that looks like it's a really good prize.

Whoever wins it, just go in your cupboards as it's been in mine for about a year now. But I think walking around, people might think that you're him. No, they might think

you're a dick. You kind of look like Ryan Gosling if he grew a big bushy beard like he was going to play an Amish person or something. Don't make me take it back. What size is this?

I don't know, medium? Yeah. It looked a little on the small side. I mean, it's got to be tight, though. It's got to be tailored. You can't go loose on such a thing, surely. Oh, okay. Well, because I was going to say,

I'm like looking all over for what size it is. It says it right on the hanger. Yep. But that's terrific. When picking my badge, I'm going to try and pick someone that will fit that completely so I can try and win for them. It's too small for Pete Holmes, but he would definitely wear it. Because he's obsessed with that movie. Well, thank you for bringing all this stuff.

And let's give a more specific plug to your two-disc special edition. Yes. That was my Edinburgh Fringe show, the year that Roshin won the Edinburgh Fringe. So it wasn't even a runner-up, but it's on DVD, so... Well done. It's called Scroobius Pip Words live at the Edinburgh Fringe. So there you have it.

Thanks for bringing all that stuff. No worries. I was asked, let's go back to what I was doing. And ask Roisin, what movie you saw recently, if any. Well, I watched Jerry Maguire yesterday. Why?

Why are you finally getting around to that? Or are you already a fan? I couldn't believe it was 20 years old. When I eyed it, it was 20 years old and I thought, I've got to watch it again. And I watched it and I liked that film. Do you not like Jerry Maguire? Oh, it's fine.

I don't have any problems with it. I went to watch the Italian film, it's called Summertime at the BFI. Is it called Summertime? Is anyone talking about that film? Is it called Summertime? It's bad to ask the audience questions because they know they'll flip out on them if they speak out of

turn. I went to watch that and that was really good about a sort of rural family in Italy, all girls growing up. It was cool. It's a pretty good film. Summertime, you think it's called.

Yeah, summertime. She's getting pissed off. Yes! Yes. Now I'm not so sure you saw Jerry Maguire. Could you describe that movie? I just kind of,

I like Cuba Gooding Jr. in it. Yeah, Academy Award winner for that. Yeah, and then he ran up on stage when he won the award and he jumped up and down a lot and then he never worked again. Except to play radio. Oh, God.

Did you ever see radio? No, what happens in radio? That guy's seen it. He watched it on a 24-hour bus ride. Watched it on a loop. He plays a, I believe he's a mentally handicapped young man who helps out some sort of sports team.

And he's called Radio because he's always got a radio that he enjoys, a little transistor radio. Is he not well in the film? He's not well. It's rude these days, or inappropriate to use the expression

retarded or retard, but when Robert Downey Jr. is talking about going full retard in Tropic Thunder, radio is one of the first movies that comes to mind. That and Sean Penn and I Am Sam.

Oh, and what's that crazy one with Gary Oldman about toes? Tip toes. Oof. But you know, you gotta admire him for giving it the old college try, but I'd say you know, hire a retarded person.

Yeah. Yeah, they a retarded person. Yeah. Yeah, they do great in movies. Richard, what was the last thing you saw? Oh, well, I was hoping it would be cooler, but last night, for the first time ever, I watched Pacific Rim. Yes. And I actually quite liked it.

I didn't know. Everyone said it was terrible, but I thought, well, I'll give it a go, and it's better than Godzilla and all the Transformers movies. Absolutely. So I was like, it's actually great. Like, the gravity works when they hit the field.

You know, there's actual real care into the bullshit making it not bullshit. Do you know what I mean? I thoroughly enjoyed all of it. I didn't think I would, but I did. So, yeah, Pacific Rim. Guillermo del Toro is a passionate dude. He puts his all into it.

Even if, you know, like, I'm not a big fan of Pan's Labyrinth because I like to sleep at night, but... But the guy really goes for it. And, yeah, I like Pacific Rim. Yeah, it was good. Yeah. So, yeah. It's basically a film full of everyone I like.

So it's like it also had that other thing as well, that everyone who's in it is people I like in movies. You know, they didn't have that sort of annoying character you don't like, or, you know, people who weren't available because there's an Edinburgh Festival on or something. You know, it's full of lots of first choices. We can't get the cast we want for Pacific Rim because of a festival. Yeah, so you're a big Sons of Anarchy fan?

Oh, yeah. Yeah, because I don't know too many movies that Charlie Hunnam's been in. I've just been doing a film with him. For real? Yeah. What's that called? It's out next year.

It's the new Guy Ritchie one. It's Knights of the Round Table, and he's playing King Arthur, and he's really fucking good. It's Knights of the Round Table and he's playing King Arthur. And he's really fucking good. It's not like a knight's tale where they have modern music and shit in it. That's what I was hoping, but sadly not.

I was hoping I'd get to rap in a medieval manner, but that wasn't required, so. Waste of a minstrel, that's what I'm saying. I just got in it because I look medieval basically was the

whole casting process. That's awesome. Yeah, I had no idea that you did that. How big of a part do you have in that movie? Oh, tiny. I'm glad it's not

coming out for a year because I'm trading off it to get proper gigs because I'm in this big film that's coming out. I'm blind to speak a couple of times. It's minor.

But you're around a lot? I'm around a bit. Yeah? How many days did you have to be on the set? Because movies take forever. Five. I had five days on set.

Yeah, so that'll translate to about ten seconds in the movie. Yeah, about that. I'd say four different sets of ten seconds. I wouldn't say 40 seconds because that feels like

a substantial scene. But around four sets of ten seconds. So, you know, recurring enough to go, oh, Scroobius Pip was in that. You know. Yeah, that's all.

And will you be credited as Scroobius Pip in the titles? Yeah, totally. We'll just say Dave? No, no, I've gone with that. I didn't want to go, there's a guy, Plan B,

who's a rapper who went into acting and went with Ben Drew, his real name, and I thought, fuck it. Why do that? Who are the lead characters

other than... It's Charlie, it's got Eric Banner in it, it's got Jude Law. Heard of both of those guys. It's got Neil Maskell, who I don't know if you know, but he's really good.

He did Utopia. Yeah, he's fantastic. He was in? He was in Utopia and Kill List, which is fucking awesome. And it's got Aiden O'Brien. Is it Aiden O'Brien from Game of Thrones? And The Wire was his biggest thing.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. He's got some cool fuckers in there. He's the idiot at the beginning of Dark Knight Rises that doesn't bother to check under the hood to see that he's got Bane about to take over his plane. I mean, come on. But he's a great actor. It's not his fault.

Yeah. Does the best accent in all of Game of Thrones, doesn't it? Because it's like, what's he doing? Everyone else, you go, that's Northern, that's RSC, that's... It's like, what's this? It's like, it's really weird.

Love it. Yeah, he had to pull off, what was his accent in The Wire? Like, just some sort of crazy... It was a bit New York-y, wasn't it? It wasn't quite Baltimore, it was a bit Boston-y. Yeah, it was a Boston-y accent.

Emphasis on the E. Yeah. Did I ask you what movie you've seen lately? No, no. I'm going to skip you each time. Yeah, just every time. Fuck, I shouldn't have sat on the ends. I'll ask if we can rotate halfway through

if anything's happening. Well, the last film I had seen, I shouldn't have sat on the ends I'll ask if we can rotate halfway before it keeps happening the last film I had seen I do a film club in the cinema next door and I had Dancer in the Dark on which I love it, it's amazing but then yesterday knowing this question was coming I still chose to go and see the Fantastic Four

and now have to have that as the last film I saw because I saw the trailers and thought it can't be as bad as it looks and it is Doctor Doom looks like he's painted on the wall like a laser quest that's the styling they've gone for Doctor Doom in this

so yeah That's the styling they've gone for Doctor Doom in this. So yeah. Not top five. Unfortunately, if you make me laugh, it also makes me have a coughing fit. I saw The Gift this morning because I had options of seeing Fantastic Four. Yep. Or The Gift.

Made the right choice. And yeah, I gave a gift to myself of not seeing Fantastic Four. And The Gift is, what did I write here? Something I want to take to the returns department. No, it's actually quite good if you like that sort of thing. Like, you know, it's a kind of, you know, guy comes into a couple's life and turns out to be fucking scary. You know, speaking of, it's like Pacific Heights.

I almost said Pacific Rim. It's like Pacific Heights. Remember that one with Matthew Modine and Michael Keaton? Same sort of deal. But directed and written by the guy who plays the creep in the movie, Joel Edgerton. And he does a good job on all fronts. It's not

something I'd ever want to see again, because once you know how it all plays out, it's like, who needs to see that again? But while you're watching it, it's like, what's going to happen? You say to yourself a lot. Some people, that's all they want yourself a lot. And some people, that's all they want from a movie.

That'll do. And it's not enough for me, really, but it was well done. It's what kept me going on Predestination. Have you seen Predestination? I like that. It's crazy. It's one that you're just watching,

thinking, this is stupid. But it keeps getting increasingly stupid until you're like, fair play. That was bravely stupid. But it keeps getting increasingly stupid until you're like, fair play, that was bravely stupid. The boldness of the ridiculous, it just goes ridiculous and ridiculous. You're like, all right, I've got to respect that, to be honest.

But it's also one of those films that you have to say to people, have you seen Predestination? No, watch it, don't watch the trailer. Yeah, yeah. And the thing in the trailer goes, and then this twist and this twist and this twist, and it's like, we don't want to see the linear story

of all the things we know is going to happen. The idea of predestination is you kind of go, like you say, what? Don't be silly. It's great, yeah. Yeah, they all do that now with the trailers, and it's very, very frustrating. The movie Vacation that's out now,

like every punchline to the scenes is just quicker and in the trailer. The trailer feels like an option. It's waiting for that to happen. An alternative. The trailer feels like an alternative. If you've not got time to watch it, here's basically the trailer. The trailer feels like an option. An alternative. The trailer feels like an alternative. If you've not got time to watch it, here's basically the film.

Rather than, here's a trailer, come and see the film. That's what I like. Now, if I'm watching a trailer for a comedy and I laugh a few times at the trailer, I go, well, that's probably, I probably got that done.

I probably don't need to see the whole movie. I just had a nice time watching the two-minute version. And you got that for free. So you've not paid yet and you've got the laughs movie I just had a nice time watching the two minute version and you got that for free so you've not paid yet and you've got the laughs just a bonus I show up late now because I know there's going to be 20 minutes of trailers so I show up when the movie's five minutes before the movie starts

because I've had it with them showing every single thing I turn the other way for trailers for big movies I'm real excited about like the new Star Wars and stuff I just don't want to see it. Because even though it's just flashing images from the movie, I still sit there the whole movie going, well, when's

that thing going to show up? Where's the robot that looks like a ball? Where the fuck is that guy? Joel Everton in that film, am I saying his name right? His surname? El L what's his Joel yeah

Edgerton Edgerton he just he just put brown contact lenses in he did yeah he just has brown contact lenses

I never knew what colour his eyes were I did and it's just a weird like he's gone this is my character it makes him look

creepier plus he's got he made his goatee makes me rethink ever having. Plus he's got, he made, his goatee makes me rethink ever having one. Because he's immediately like, what's with this guy

with this stupid goatee? But he looks like he's done it from Robert Durst from The Jinx. Oh. He looks like he's gone. Who's the creepiest guy? This guy.

And then he just, that's his acting. Yeah. That's perfect. Mmm. Mmm. All right, you guys. I think that was a great round of what was the last movie you saw.

And I'd like to do something that I always have a lot of fun with. It's not really a win or lose kind of game. It's called Love Like, Hate, Hate Like. And see, people love it. Some don't. At least there was no booing. In honor of his appearance in the upcoming film, The Man from UNCLE, from the aforementioned Guy Ritchie,

I would like to do a round of this with the films of Hugh Grant. Yeah. So there's a lot to love and a lot to hate. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to go through, down the line, we'll each go with each round. We'll start with love. You just have to name a movie and you can pass once if you want. If you have no love for Hugh Grant and his films or you don't want to say that you hate any of

them because you hope to get 40 seconds in his next film. Let's start with love Is there Roisin Is there a A movie of his That you absolutely love Four Weddings and a Funeral There you go One of the early ones I guess

And Pretty much responsible For his success Yeah Why we have to see him In so many Romantic comedies And

Yeah And a pretty terrific movie The only thing I remember about it is this goes on for too long yeah I'm like yeah one less wedding would have been fine let's skip the funeral that's a bummer but the speech the speech at the funeral stop the clocks all that business yeah great great if you know somebody who dies are you just gonna always steal that speech always I'm to read the first page

of the alien novelization. It hurts! How it hurts! Richard, what about you? About a boy. Yeah, right? That's what I put, about a boy. You stole mine. Well, I don't really like, the thing is I love Hugh Grant, but I don't really like romantic comedies,

so it's really hard to enjoy Hugh Grant in films. Yeah, you're fucked. Yeah. I did like his whole part in the hacking scandal. It was great in that. It was brilliant to watch the news. It was like, this is the best Hugh Grant film I've ever seen. You know, it was amazing.

Him doing that double act with Steve Coogan was amazing. Yeah, it's interesting. When he's under oath, he's just as stammery as he is in his films. Yeah, it's like the sort of Crispin Glover level of acting. Like, that's amazing. Oh, it's just you. But about a boy, you know, it's a sort of an arsehole, a depressed mum and a sort of bullied kid.

It's like, I can get behind this dynamic in a romantic. I can work with these tropes. Yeah, and as stand-up comics, I found it really interesting the way he describes how he kills his days, because he doesn't have to work or do anything during the day. And so I kind of related to that. Like, yeah, I'd go shoot some pool for a little while

just to kill a half an hour, just to get through this goddamn day. Yeah, good choice. What about you, Mr. Pip? I would go for Mickey Blue Eyes. Okay. Simply because I enjoy posh British people pretending to be from New York or

basically pretending they grew up knowing an Affleck and having to then do the accent repeatedly. Because he has to join a kind of Boston, New York mafia type. Yeah, it's bad, but enjoyable for that sole reason. Yeah, because he really has to try to do the accent. It's pretty hilarious.

And he gets to do it, Paul. It wouldn't be as good as if he was just having to play that character, because you just have to have the awkwardness of him doing a really bad accent. But I feel they address that, because he's clearly British. It's not a good reason. I hate it. It's not a good reason I hate it it's not a good movie I couldn't think of one

that I love I should have passed you haven't seen About a Boy? yeah it's alright yeah alright well maybe you can put it in the like category

what's a what's one that you just like Roisin just as just perfectly acceptable um Notting Hill easy What's one that you just like, Roisin? Just perfectly acceptable. Not in Hill. Easy.

It's fine at Christmas, guys. Well, Love Actually is actually fine at Christmas. Oh, that's... But yeah, you could have gone with either of those. I think they're perfectly nice movies. They're fine. They're three o'clock in the afternoon. You don't have to stay awake for gone with either of those. I think they're perfectly nice movies. They're fine. They're three o'clock in the afternoon. You don't have to stay awake for the full length of them. Here's what I don't get about Love Actually.

I've seen a lot of porn. Yeah, that's not got a lot in it. And I've seen how porn works, but the scenes with Martin Freeman and the lady that's in those scenes with him, where there's stand-ins for porn actors and they have to stand there while they're adjusting the lights and pretend to those scenes with him where there's stand-ins for porn actors and they have to stand there while they're adjusting the lights and pretend to have sex with each other naked.

I don't think that's ever happened anywhere in the world except in the movie Love Actually. I could be wrong. You might be making porn differently over here. But that was weird to me. What about you, Richard? Do you have one that you just like?

Well, yes. Bridget Jones' Diary because I just really like? Well, yes. Bridget Jones Diary because I just really like... Well, no. I don't care about the film. I just really like the fight scene. He fights Colin Firth. Because it's a proper people-who-can't-fight fight scene.

It's just clumsy as shit, yeah. It's what a real fight looks like. The rest of the movie's fine. I couldn't give a shit, but that fight scene is... We've got a big fan walking out of the show right now. That's like, I put up with some shit in my time. Loves Bridget Jones' diary. He's coming here to fight you. Because the problem is, I love too many more...

So that's just fine, yeah. Because Hugh Grant having a fight is brilliant. But that makes the whole film like... I just don't know why they gave her the... Whoever wrote Bridget Jones' diary could have called her anything other than Jones. Could have called her Wilson. And then people wouldn't have to stumble through Joneses.

Or however you pronounce it, or write it. I don't even know where the apostrophes would go when you're writing out, I guess I would figure it out. It's not really something to worry about. And then what was the sequel called? Or is that going to come up as your hate, maybe? No, it was Edge of Reason.

Edge of Reason. That's weird. Edge of Tomorrow, Bridget Jones. Yeah. Edge of Tomorrow. Bridget Jones, live, die, repeat. Every time the date goes wrong, she just goes back the next day.

So do you have one that you just like um this has been a big realization that i don't love or even like any hugh grant films which i was unaware of until now and you've listed there's been six at least so far that i've just not had any love or like for so it's a yeah it's interesting i really i with about a Boy it really was the one that I really stood out to me as the absolute best one. And I agree with Richard. I like Hugh Grant. Like, I'm always happy to see him. Maybe Man From U.N.C.L.E. will finally get the job done.

Hopefully. Again, that's it. I've always thought I like Hugh Grant. Turns out I just don't like him on camera. Oh yeah, it was you that said that. I put it in Richard's mouth. I'm sorry. I put it in his beard instead of yours. I went with, this is kind of a weird one, and I'll explain why I like it.

It's similar to the Mickey Blue Eyes explanation. I like a movie called Music and Lyrics. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Because he has to play an embarrassed guy who used to be an 80s pop star, and he's so embarrassed by it, and then in the end credits, they show a music video that he was in

that is spot on what those videos were like, so that charmed me so much that I walk away from it thinking I like that movie. Feeling pleased. Pop goes my heart. Yeah. It's a great pop song. It's not a bad song.

You're right. Yeah, it works pretty good. And the girl they have playing like the Britney Spears character is cute and funny and I don't know her name. So that was mine and now we get to go to hate. Now we get to finally get it all out.

Get it on the table. How awful ones are there? Which one do you hate, Roisin? I could tell you mine and you can just share it with me if you'd like. He did a movie called Two Weeks Notice. Yeah. And it is so, it is like it doesn't even have a script

and that him and Sandy Bullock were just hey guys, can you turn the charm up to 11 today and see what happens? And they do their best I think. I like them both. They were called in on Two Weeks Notice to film it. That? That's literally it. That's why they called it that.

That's where the name comes from. But that's still too much time to prepare and it turned out that bad. But I always get that confused. What's the thing where Sandra Bullock

has to go to rehab? Is it 28, no, 28 days later for 28 days? It's like, oh, it's that sort of shit that they're making at the moment.

One's got Steve Buscemi in it, I think, as a parole officer and the other one hasn't but yeah it's all those sorts of oh yeah

I love that there's some people this has definitely happened several times as people have thought they were going to see 28 Days Later

and had to instead suddenly realise they were watching a Sandra Bullock rehab movie it's weirdly more realistic zombies in 28 Days

I'm quite attacked that I'm a massive Hugh Grant. I like Hugh Grant, I think. Right? Yeah, because I've watched a lot of his films, and when you sort of think about them, they're maybe not the best films, but he's so watchable that I'd watch them again. I think he's terrific.

I hope things turn around and he starts being in good movies. I'd love to see that. I mean, just the fact that he's in Man From U.N.C.L.E., which is not a romantic comedy, and it's not a, you know, for lack of a better word, like, you know, because early on in his career, he was in a lot of stuff that's like Merchant Ivory kind of stuff.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I'm glad it's not either of those things. For the loved one, Sense of Sensibility. Of course, Sense of Sensibility. That's one things for the loved one Sense of Sensibility of course Sense of Sensibility that's one I even like not Sense of Sensibility Remains of the Day Remains of the Day

is another good one you're killing it now is this what you're going to be like during the game portion sorry it's Remains of the Day but he's got the glasses

and the real creamed hair yeah yeah there you go yeah he was more of a character actor in the early going I guess he there you go yeah he was more of a character actor in the early going I guess he was also in that one

about gay dudes Morris Morris yeah we've got a really great cricket match scene in Morris it's like a real

life cricket match I'll run and there's no don't run but he runs and he gets out and it's like this really great subtext that's indicative of

some sort of relationship thing you are a VHS enthusiast no other way to get that one So that's indicative of some sort of relationship thing. You are a VHS enthusiast. No other way to get that one. What about you, Pip? Do you have one?

Did I skip Richard? No, Richard, go on. But I don't hate any of his films. I like him. Can I suggest another one? Yeah, yeah. Did you hear about the Morgans? Ah, is that the witness protection figure? Yeah, Sarah Jessica Parker.

Yeah, it's rough rough when you can't even bother to say the whole name you know you're not going to watch the whole movie well when people say it to each other did you hear about the Morgans yeah I heard they were

in a shit movie yeah that I don't want to see okay I did like him in the the Wachowskis thing where he played

all the baddies whatever that one was hang on hang on to that one. We'll get into that one in a second. Did you say one, Pip? Mine is the man that went up a hill and came down a mountain. Because, I mean, you said about trailers

ruining a film. Just read the title. Just read it, then go home. Well, it's about halfway. I guess he's going to come down now. Yeah, yeah, that's it. I saw it's about halfway. I guess he's going to come down now. Yeah, that's it. I saw it in the cinema. I went to the cinema for that. I will see almost anything at the cinema. My love of the cinema is such

that I will see a man going up a hill and coming down a mountain as long as I can eat ice cream and hot dogs. Does he bring back a goat or something? I've not seen it. What happens? He just comes back down? It's not good. It's a true story. I don something? I'm not seeing it. What happens? He just comes back down? It's not good.

It's a true story. I don't believe I'm having to give this more air and light now, but it's a true story about a hill that was previously a mountain and then was reclassified because it wasn't high enough. So he kind of made his mission to add some mud, to add like a few foot. So he went up a hill and came down a mountain. It's basically the same plot as Sirens.

But with hills instead of naked women. Yeah, Sirens has some good nudity. I could have put that in the like category. Some of that film's brilliant. Two parts are really good. Let's go with, this is the final round of this thing. This is a Hugh Grant film

that you hate yourself for liking. Is there such a thing? Roisin. I've done this the wrong way. I should have said Remains of the Day for Love. Okay. And then for that one, Feeling Guilty for Liking

is Notting Hill. You hate yourself for liking it. I hate such strong words. Is it because of Julia Roberts? Is that the problem? Yeah. For a row.

Yeah. I cut out her face and put mine in whenever I watch it. And it's just a white Notting Hill. Everyone in Notting Hill is white

and it's very, sort of a very white version of London. It's sort of not a great depiction of modern Britain. But as a rom-com, you know, it does the job. Yeah,

I'm just a girl standing on a doorstep saying some lines, whatever the fuck, whatever the fuck she says. Okay, now you can, if you'd like, could you say Cloud Atlas for this

that's how much I like it couldn't remember what it was called yeah well Cloud Atlas like first of all what all the time

it's like Jupiter Ascending Jupiter Ascending's not right it should be Jupiter Rises nothing I don't want to watch a film called Jupiter Ascending it's a film called Jupiter Rising

I watched that right it's not Dark Knight Ascending no yeah exactly it's Ascending that's what people do when they walk up the stairs or get a stair lift

don't it it's like Ridiculous but now that less I was like I like the you know, it sounds patronizing going I like the fact that you're ever gonna go You know, I for effort guys a forever lie I really like the fact I like the fact that everyone who's in it is doing it on purpose No one's no one's if it's shit, then they're not it's not because they calm acts or they don't know what they're just like you know it's like the whole tom hanks irish writer thing he's just like he's doing that on purpose like this is not this is not because he can't do an irish accent this

is on purpose it's amazing yeah everybody in that movie plays like five or seven parts and they're and they signed on like yeah i'll try to play these roles i'm absolutely not right for and gonna have to put pile on the makeup and basically black up in a movie yeah it's it's pretty incredible like I've seen it a couple of times just because the parts I like I really like a lot like I kind of wish the whole sequence where I can't think of his name now, but he gets put in a hospital, and they won't let him go. And he's a great actor.

And Hugh Grant is like the guy who put him there. Like, Hugh Grant plays the bad guy in every segment. And at one point, even has this crazy, like, tribal makeup on. And then the most fun part of that movie is at the end credits, you go, that was him or that was her? That black girl played an Asian woman or whatever? They show the pictures at the end of what everybody played

and it's surprising and funny. It makes you laugh. But then there's parts of that movie like what's her name, Halle Berry and Tom Hanks talking that weird future speak that they made up that's just so silly and tough to get through. Do you have

one, Pip? I like myself for hating the man who went up a hill and came down a mountain, so I'm just going to switch that on the category and be very proud of my hatred. We might have to do that from now on. It's called Love Like Hate Like Hate. That's a really great

spin on that. And thank you guys for playing and sorry Hugh Grant that it didn't work out so good for you. I know he loves the podcast. I thought,

oh, I'll just talk about Hugh Grant on the podcast because then he'll be excited to hear what people think. And then we just trashed him the entire time. Man from Uncle, out soon. In theaters soon.

And now it's the part of the show where I say, let the games begin! Everybody brought name tags. I'm so proud of everyone And they're gonna hold them up now And maybe we can get a little light in the house too Oh, look at that, thank you Professional theater Lots of options

What's that dangling from the bottom of yours? Some sweets, good call That always tricks people into picking a name tag. I don't see any donuts, which is good. I don't want to trash this beautiful theater. All right, well you guys get to pick. I don't get to pick, so just go ahead. Oh, there's an eye chart over there, and I feel bad about my eyes because I can't read

it. I think it says Dan. But everybody go ahead and get up and go select the name tag you'd like to play for today. And while they do that, we'll do this. We'll take a brief commercial break. We'll be right back. Today's episode is brought to you in part by Difficult People,

the new Hulu original comedy series from executive producer Amy Poehler, Billy Eichner from the Emmy-nominated Billy on the Street, and Julie Klausner from Ugly Americans starring this unapologetic story that TV Guide calls Beyond Laugh Out Loud. Very funny.

Billy and Julie play best friends and aspiring comedians who seek fame and acceptance in the cutthroat world of New York comedy. Billy and Julie have no filter, no shame, and can't help but rub everyone the wrong way. From yelling at small children to crashing A-list parties, Billy and Julie are oblivious to the world around them.

But they mean well. OK Magazine says Billy and Julie may just knock Larry David off his throne when it comes to curmudgeonly comedy. Difficult People also stars Gabourey Sidibe, James Urbaniak, and Andrea Martin. And guest stars include Seth Meyers, Fred Armisen, Kate McKinnon, Martin Short, Amy Sedaris, you know, the most funniest people on the planet. Difficult People premieres Wednesday, August 5th, and watch new episodes on Wednesdays only on Hulu. Difficult People premieres Wednesday, August 5th, and watch new episodes on Wednesdays,

only on Hulu. Today's episode of Doug Loves Movies is also sponsored by A24 Films, presenting The End of the Tour, a new film starring Jason Segel as the acclaimed late author David Foster Wallace and Jesse Eisenberg as Rolling Stone journalist David Lipsky. Doug digs it! You've heard me say that already on Doug Loves Minis. Based on Lipsky's memoir of the five days he spent interviewing Wallace in 1996

following the publication of Wallace's groundbreaking novel, Infinite Jest, it's a transfixing portrait of one writer trying to crack the brilliant mind of another. The end of the tour is a moving rumination on fame, success, genius, the loneliness of being an artist and the shared experience of being human in

select theaters July 31st back to the show all right well we're back and that was very very fast and for the most part there wasn't a lot of yelling out of pick me pick me it's a very polite crowd the donut lady's not happy right now oh no but uh roshin who are you playing for it's uh the name is on the oh here we go don't read the thing don't read what's on the back okay because that's if you lose today i have to say what they've written on the back I have to call this person or thing a shithead it's very complicated but you're playing for the passion of the Christina yeah she took a passion of the Christ poster and stuck

her smiling face on it and she put me on there as well so we can we'll just put that down there and and let me see what kind of sweets you got with that. I thought I'd give you these. What? You get to keep them. It's flying saucers. And it's got no artificial flavors or colors. Look at these things.

No, nothing artificial about it. Does it have sugar in it? Yeah. Okay, so I'm not going to eat these. I mean, but they're yours to do with whatever you'd like. Thank you. Mid-show snack? Are you going to eat them right now?

I don't mind if you do. I'd like to know, I'd like to hear about what they taste like. They're polystyrene. They're like packing peanuts. What do you guys call packing peanuts? Do you have a different expression for it? She can't open it. Richard, can you open that?

Pass your name tag down. I'll describe it while you do that. Do you want me to open it as your next? Richard picked one that had candy taped to it. As well. Throw it. And it's Throw it. And it's

Doug Benson. Doug Benson in San Andrew ass. So his name is Andrew and he put my face over the rock.

I'm like dangling from a helicopter and that's pretty much the face I would make if I was dangling from a helicopter. And that's pretty much the face I would make if I was dangling from a helicopter. So good job on that. And I got a crunchy bar, maple and pecan, quaker oat bar. Which I can tell you I'm excited about.

Maple and pecan. I'm excited about. That's the exact opposite ingredients of flying saucers. That's very much the Arnold Schwarzenegger of this twins combo we've got going on. Do you, have you ever had one of these?

Yeah, not for years. It's like I said. Do you want to take a bite and tell us about it? Update on the flying saucers. How are those? Use your microphone, boys.

Just like sugar. It's just, it's just sugar. There's sugar in, in's sugar in little houses. They're little sugar houses. Oh, I'm glad the sugar has somewhere to live. Pip? This is just an air horn

with a post-it note that says Andrew on it. I went purely for the fact I wanted an air horn. A lot of people have put a lot of effort in. The gentleman here, who I'm glad the lady we've got picked, he's the one that suggested I come on and he kind of said I'd promise to pick

him, didn't pick him, so an air horn. He's like, cheers guy, I'm getting an air horn. Yeah, he gets to keep it. Huh? Huh? Huh? Yeah, they get a little foggy when you don't use them frequently enough.

I've learned that the hard way. But, yeah, I'm trying to think of... Whenever I say the winner of one of the games, when I announce who won the game, could you hit the air horn? Yeah that'll be fun so much i'm so happy about that yeah i there's nothing better than air horns i i think i mean i've got flying saucers i've got an air horn i'm so happy i hate myself for liking air horns so much and uh and what was the name on the air horn again rich Andrew Andrew oh we got two so we got two Andrews and a Tina and Christina sorry sorry Christina

don't don't put me on the cross over that let's start with a game that I call Cluster Flicks. Yeah, aka don't yell out Amy Adams or anything else, but I assume no one will yell out today because of where I am. Here's how this works, you guys. Have your microphones ready, and you can put the air horn down for a bit.

I've got my fingers in here. You've got an itchy air horn finger over there, I can tell. And I'd rather you only hit it when I ask you to. All right, fine. Because air horns are so scary. They're only not scary if it's some sort of outdoor event. Yeah. Like someone's about to start running.

Or a regatta of some kind. I'm going to name three movies that one particular actor or actress has appeared in all of them. And then I open the floor to the three of you. If anybody, the first person, just blurt it out if you know what movie it is. I have a feeling Richard's going to be better at this than a typical guest. Because I start off with three movies where no one should get the answer right. And then if no one does, I'll keep listing off movies. But I think this is going to end quickly.

But we'll see what happens. Who was in The Man Who Haunted Himself, Gold, and That Lucky Touch? Is it Roger Moore? Yes. Oh, that is so... There's probably no one else anywhere that would have gotten that.

These are all very early films in his career. I think they were all before he was James Bond, but I especially love a movie called The Man Who Haunted Himself. I kind of have to see that now just to see how one goes about doing that. And then I went on to do more what I thought were sort of obscure, at least movies with big casts to make it difficult. Street People, Shout at the Devil, The Wild Geese, Escape to Athena, The Sea Wolves, The

Cannonball Run, Curse of the Pink Panther, Spice World Boat Trip. It goes on and on. And then I thought that the thing that might tip it with typical guests would be when I finally say Octopussy. And then also the fact that he was mentioned in the Amy Winehouse song, You Know I'm No Good. Which for years when I heard that song, I was like, is she really name dropping Roger Moore? When she sings, you tear men down like Roger Moore? And the answer is yes, that's what she's singing. Rest in peace.

So let's go on to the next game. That means Richard gets to go first in this game. And it's a little ditty we call Last Man Stanton. Stanton. And again, the gentleman that took a 24-hour bus ride, I feel like he deserves first chance at this. Can I call bullshit on that?

Because there's nowhere in England that's 24 hours drive away. And I feel that's unfair on Americans. Because in America, you can travel 24 hours on a bus. In England, you can't. It's like 10 hours to the top of the country. Where did you come from? What about with stops?

I came from Munich. And I got the... You came from Munich. All right. Fair play. Fair play. I thought it was like a Sunday service or something. No, I'm accepting that.

You have to go through Tokyo, Paris, London, then Munich, talk about pop music. So he's going to get to, since he came from Munich, he's going to get to suggest, I'm guessing he's going to say Eric Bana, but he gets to pick who we're going to play with today. I like to play along just for fun, but we'll start with Richard, and then we'll going to play with today. I like to play along just for fun,

but we'll start with Richard, and then we'll go to Pip, and then me, and then Roisin gets to go fourth, and I don't know, maybe that's making it more difficult for her. Let's go the other way around. And... I'm going to be a gentleman about this.

He's going to name somebody, and we just have to name movies that that person was in and when you can't think of one or you say one that's incorrect, you are out. But just say one. Yeah, just one at a time. On previous games where you listed eight

that you loved. Sort of make sure you don't rush off. I got it, I got it. I wish you were on the show all the time to get those other guests in line. I try to explain how the games work,

and they don't listen to me. All right, so... Oh, and your Twitter name, the guy from the bus, and this also maybe explains the 24-hour bus ride, his Twitter name is A Study in Beer. I see. Yeah. Is that what you do for a living? You study beer? Pretty much I see. Yeah. And so you're,

is that what you do for a living? You study beer? Pretty much, yeah. Yeah, okay. And what's this amazing name you thought of for Last Man Stanton? For that wiki page that has all the Melissa and Sage, you haven't done Samuel L. Jackson yet. Samuel L. Jackson.

I think we have, but I'm always willing to revisit. Plus, we do it on Doug Loves Minis as well, so that might have been overlooked from that, but we'll see. So we'll start with you, Richard. Just name any movie that's got Sam Jackson in it. True Romance.

I think right out of the gate, you confused me. He's in True Romance. I think right out of the gate, you confused me. He's in True Romance? He's right at the beginning. Oh, yeah, yeah, you're right. You're right. Interesting. I would have saved that one

if I were you. I would have hip-pocketed that one, but also I'm guessing you're going to be great at this. Roisin, any Samuel L. Jackson movie? Pulp Fiction. Yeah, that's a slightly more obvious one. Satan one.

I'm going to go with Kingsman, The Secret Service. Yeah, just because it's the most recent. I'm going to go with a film that at first I thought was a sequel because of the way it was written, but Menace 2 Society. Yeah, they did throw that Roman numeral in there. Yeah, I was looking for Menace Society 1. Menace 2 colon Society, yeah. I like that.

All right. Let me write that down. Richard? Die Hard with a Vengeance. Yeah. That was the weirdest cheer for that.

It's like there's like a section of the fan club for that movie came to the show. It was like 10 guys right there. Yay!

Die Hard with a Vengeance. Okay. Roisin? Coming to America. Yes. Yes. I love it. People are excited

like they've made the movie or something. Very, very proud. I'll go with Jackie Brown. Oh, really? You guys like coming to America and die hard with a vengeance? Jackie Brown, not so much? Pip?

I'm going to go with Unbreakable. Mm-hmm. That might be my favorite. I love that movie. Richard? 51st State. Yeah. Oh, 51st Dates.

Yeah. I thought you said 51st State. So I'd be like, interested. What? It is. It is 51st State. 51st State. 51st State. 51st

State. I don't know what it's called in America. He's not in the Adam Sandler movie, 51st State? No. What did we call it in America? Formula 51. Formula 51. Formula 51, okay.

Wow. Equally confusing. Breast milk. Yeah. Okay, Roshi? Snakes on a Plane. Yeah. I'll go with Django Unchained. I'm going to go with Star Wars The Phantom Menace.

Ooh. All right. That's the full title. Oh, you want the number? Star Wars what? Ooh. All right. That's the full time. Oh, you want the number? Star Wars what? One. Episode one.

The Phantom Men. Was it? No, four. What number is it? Fuck. You're panicking me. Five. Two.

One. I said one the first time. It's motherfuckers trying to fuck with me. Episode one. Episode one. Episode one. Episode one, colon. I'll take that. Sorry. You don't have to say the colon out loud, though. If you choose not to.

Okay, Richard. A Time to Kill. Yeah, with McConaughey and Sandy Bullock. What about you, Roisin? This is going to be a good one, I think. This one's dragging out. Have I got one? Oh, yeah, that one.

You can do it. Oh, what do you do if you can't think of one? You're out. Yeah, just guess. Just throw some words together. Maybe your accent will confuse me. Does the Barclays advert count that he did? It's on in cinemas.

I don't know what you said. Just an ad for it. So I'll take it. I'll take it. Hold on to your butts, Jurassic Park. Yes. The man. What. The man.

What? The man. The man. The man. People went woo. They're acknowledging its existence. Yeah, it's a real thing.

Richard. You're not nervous at this point, are you? No. Yeah, you've got like ten more in your head. I've got some more in my head. Yeah.

Deep Blue Sea. Yeah. One of the best... Oh, forget it. I think I'm out. What? I thought you'd think of another one while we went around. I just really can't think of anyone.

Yeah, it's tough. It's a hard game. But thank you for playing. You'll be can't think of anyone. Yeah, it's tough. It's a hard game. But thank you for playing. You'll be back in the next game. I'm going to go with something that I just saw on VOD, Video On Demand. Didn't love it, but he's

certainly in it. And it's called Barely Lethal. Yeah. It's a twist on the expression Barely Legal. Isn. It's a twist on the expression barely legal. Like, isn't it a fun idea to name a movie after the notion of having sex with someone who's underage? Barely lethal. All right.

I might be out. Really? I can't think of one. It's tough, right? It really is. It's really a real brain taxer, but I think you could probably come up with one more. No, I'm not hearing it.

No, I've not got anything. I'm done. All right. God damn it. It's just you and me now, Richard. As predicted. Oh, hang on. I've got one I can't remember whether the second word is correct or not. So, I'll go with...

White Sands. Or is it called White Plains? White Sands, Willem Dafoe. Plains White Sands Willem Dafoe yeah White Sands I think that's right yeah okay got confirmation from a couple people that your incredibly obscure choice is correct

alright well I have to go with this is gonna set off a chain reaction. Because I have to go ahead and blow... blow this wide open, but might as well start with... The Avengers! Oh, shit. Oh, there's so many.

This is like at that party where someone goes, should we get a whiskey? You just know you're going to be there for another three hours and you can't go home. Yeah. I'm trying to not go down that route. I'm going to try not to. Okay, save it for me. I'm trying to not go down that route. I'm going to try not to. Okay, save it for me. I'm happy.

Captain America 2. The Winter Soldier. Okay. There's no 2 in it. It's just Captain America The Winter Soldier. Because, you know, it's classier that way.

Yeah. But I'll take it. And then, of course, I'll go with The Avengers Age of Ultron. Hmm. I was going for... There's just so many of them. It seems so hard to come up with... Isn't it weird?

There's so many of them. I just... Just think of one and say it. Iron Man. Iron Man. He shows up in the little scene

at the end to recruit Stark to become an Avenger. God damn it. Yeah, it gets tricky which ones he was in and which ones he wasn't. So I will back off of that

for a moment and say 187. Yeah. Very good. You got another one? I'm going to call you the winner if you can name one more. Star Wars Episode II.

Full title. Attack of the Clones Congratulations Richard's our winner We forgot to do it after the first game, Pip Hit that air horn Yeah I'm doing it, Dad Yeah. I'm doing it, Dad.

All right, you guys. This is just flying by. I want to play a game I don't get to play very often, so I'll just make sure we play it very fast. It's called ABCD's Nuts. Yeah. And since we're at the Leicester Square Theatre, let's spell Leicester Square. You guys all know how to spell it, right?

Um... I know it's been a tough one for me to spell and learn to say it right. But we'll start with Richard since he won that game. And then we'll go to Pip and then to Roisin. And basically, we're just going to go through. All you got to do is think of any movie that begins with the letter that I tell you when we get to you. Okay.

And if somebody misses, you'll get stuck with the letter they missed on. But it's very easy because it's just all the movies You just have to think of one that begins with that letter but I should say that if you match the one that I wrote down ahead of time Then you automatically win the game and I have a feeling that we're gonna have a match today, but we'll see we'll see what happens But let's start with Richard and any movie that begins with the letter L Lost Highway

very good yeah I went with Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels E is your letter Pip I go for Equilibrium

yeah that's an easy way to play this game just start saying the letter and then the rest of the name just tumbles out. That's why I walked away from E.T.

I went with Enchanted April. Yeah. Your letter is I, Roisin. Any movie that begins with I. Independence Day. Yeah. It's kind of a weird thing to bring up. Wasn't my idea to be independent.

I went with, if it's Tuesday, this must be Belgium. Just because that's such a fun title to get to bring up whenever possible. C is the next letter, Pip. It's me, isn't it? What? Oh, Richard, sorry. Just because that's such a fun title to get to bring up whenever possible. C is the next letter, Pip. It's me, isn't it? What? Oh, Richard, sorry. It's the beard, isn't it? It's the beards. It's the beard.

C. Can't buy me love. Mm-hmm. I went with closer. Or closer. Closer sounds like the sequel to Glengarry Glen Ross. Glen Gary and Glen Ross 2, always be closing. All right, E for Pip again. Another E.

You can't say Equilibrium again. No, I'm going to go for Enter the Void. They didn't make a sequel to Equilibrium? No, they didn't, sadly. Enter the Void, that's a trippy-ass movie. Yeah. Just the opening titles gave me a seizure. Yeah.

I went with entrapment entrapment yes I like I'm a cat burglar my Sean Connery. That's Bane. S is the next letter. Star Wars. Okay. Yay. I'm not even gonna make you say episode four, A New Hope.

But everybody, be sure to check out Chronicon episode 420. Of fans dope. I went with sliding doors for my S. And I wanted to ask you guys real quick. Where do you stand on Gwyneth Paltrow and her bullshit British accent

that she's whipped out a few times now, right? She's taking away jobs from you guys. Is it okay? Does she do an okay enough job? She does a good job. It's fine. Yeah?

I'm furious. You understand how the machine of Hollywood works. Better or worse than Bridget Jones's? Worse. Fair enough. I don't know if it is worse.

No, I don't think it is. Because Bridget Jones is like a sort of, it's one accent whereas she's trying to do as if she's actually from England when it's her intro.

So she's actually, she's having a go like we said earlier.'s actually from England, Gwyneth Paltrow. So she's actually, you know, she's having a go. Like we said earlier, you know. I only feel I can mention this because we've said lovely things about him earlier, but the worst British accent ever was Charlie Hunnam in Green Street. And he's British anyway.

And it's the worst British accent I've ever heard. And I think he's amazing. I'm a big fan, but it's so bad. He's from Newcastle and he was playing a Londoner and, God, it was bad. It's like when Colin Farrell has to do an Irish accent. He can't. It's really weird. What's he doing?

T is the next letter. You had a little extra time to think about it. Train spotting. We've got a match. Hit that air horn. Euro trip, run, fat boy, run. Shakespeare in love. Quadrophenia. Uli's gold.

I couldn't find a film made in these parts that have you at the beginning. About a boy. Red too. Red too. Red too. Red too. And Edge of Tomorrow.

I'm glad it ended then because I had E again. For the third time I had E next. It's just... I'm playing a game called Name Films Beginning with E.

Which is a wonderful round. Damn. What would you have said? I was going for Edward Scissorhands. Had it ready. Just got a load of E-films in my head now. Very good.

All right, you guys. I got my voice back. Let's maybe, barely. You can just make up. Me and my sister used to play a game similar to this. Because you stop the bus. Where you do that A, B. You stop the bus and then stop the bus.

Do you remember that? When do you stop the bus? So you get a letter. Like A, B, C. Stop the bus. And in the bus remember that when do you stop the bus so you get a letter like a b c stop the bus and in your head you say the alphabet and if you stop on d and then you do loads of things beginning with d and if you've got movies you just make up movies and if you google them someone's made a film called that so yeah yeah so that's why in a lot of my games i make the person when they guess the title i make them say well tell us a little bit about it so that we know you even know what you're talking about because a lot of expressions like two weeks notice

could be a movie and in fact is when I like to stop the bus is after 24 hours from Munich alright let's play reverse Malton I play regular All right, let's play reverse Malton. I play regular Malton, but it's way too complicated. And this is still complicated, but easier to explain quickly.

Pip gets to go first this time. And then we'll switch the order around. We'll go to Richard and then to Roisin. And Pip gets to pick the first movie. I'm going to name some movies. Pip's going to pick one. The one that he thinks he knows the most actors in the film. Then I'm going to tell all three of you how many actors Leonard Maltin lists on his movie app as appearing in that movie.

And then you'll take turns bidding on how many names you think you can name from that particular film so the person going first gets to, you know, at least have a little bit of an advantage. And we'll start with you, Pip, and you get three options. Who do you know more actors from? Silverado, Tombstone, or Wyatt Earp?

Two of those, of course, are about Wyatt Earp. Yeah. And all Two of those, of course, are about Wyatt Earp. Yeah. And all three of those, of course, are American Westerns. Either of the last two I pick, I'll be thinking of the same film, because I'm not sure which one it is I'm thinking of, but I'm going to go with Tombstone. Okay. Good luck with that.

Leonard Liss, a whopping, and we played at two points, so if you don't win in one round, don't worry, you still have a chance. He lists a lot of names. He lists eight, nine, 10, 11, 14, 16, 18, 22, 24 names. Yeah, out of those 24 names, and I recommend bidding one or two. I was going to say... How many of those do you think you can name?

I'm going to start with a bid of one. Yeah, that's a very smart opening bid. I'm sure Richard's going to be great at this. Go on, say 24. How many out of 24 do you think you can get, Richard? Well, I'm thinking of this more like playing sort of like Wipeout, where you don't go straight to the number, you just go one above the other person.

So I'm going to say two. Okay, that's smart. But Roisin's already looking at me like, I don't think I can name three. But if you can't name it, then you can tell him to name it. You can challenge him to name it, but two seems... Two doesn't seem too difficult for him. Do you know the film Tombstone?

Well, I mean, it's not ridiculous to not know it. I just don't know the game. Western. So all you've got to do is you could say that you can name three names. Just out of 24 names from the cast, you could say that you can name three names. Just out of 24 names from the cast, you can't name three people?

No, definitely not. Then you probably have to challenge Richard. I'll challenge Richard. And he'll probably knock it right down. Because two names out of 24 probably isn't much of a challenge for someone who's seen Tombstone. Is it a film you like, Richard? I do, actually. Yeah, right?

It's pretty good. Isn't it secretly directed by the guy that Stallone used to direct on in secret? Oh, interesting. Yeah, I don't know.

George Costas or something. Cosmatos is credited as the director. Yeah, but he's not. You're saying he doesn't really do it.

He's someone you hire because the studio won't let you write, direct, produce, and star. So you hire this bloke who just does what you tell him. So you have a... I think Stallone used him on some of his movies.

So Stallone loaned him to these other actors? He recommended him as someone he should use. Who do you think he recommended it to? I think he recommended him to Kurt Russell. Yeah. And name a second person out of 24 people. Val Kilmer. Yeah, second build, Val Kilmer.

Who, of course, who's he playing that? Is it Doc Holliday? Yeah. Kurt Russell is Wyatt Earp and Val Kilmer is Doc Holliday. Richard has a point. I love that you guys applauded for that because that was one of the easiest.

It wasn't difficult for him to pull off. How many do you think you could name if pressured to name a lot more? I don't know. Is Bill Paxton in it? I have to look, yes. Charl Heston? Yes, he's 23 out of the 24 names.

24 is it was narrated by Robert Mitchum. Really? Yeah, he threw him in there. But Billy Bob Thornton's in it. Michael Rooker who's been on this show. Is Michael Bean in it? Bean should be in it.

Sure, Michael Bean. Is he in it? I think so. All directed by some guy that got hired to not get his name as the actual director. And here he's listed

as George Pan Cosmatos. Which is weird. Because he's everywhere. It would Cosmatos, which is weird. It's like it would only be weirder if his middle name was Pip. And let's move on to, let's play another round. And Pip gets to go first this time. And then we'll go to Roisin. So Pip gets to choose again between three films. And they are Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.

Is that what it's called? Right. Let's just call it 50 First Dates. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, or Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows? Which one of those Harry Potter movies do you think you can name more of the cast? I'm going to go for Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.

Okay. Leonard lists a lot of names again. He lists 9, 12, 15, 18, 21 names. 21 names. 21 names. You start the bidding. How many of those can you reel off under pressure? I'm going to start at three. Can you guess which three?

Just starting. Okay, Roisin, do you think you can do more? Do you think you can save four people that are in the... Four. Yeah, she says four, Richard. Probably five. Pip? I think I've got six.

Oh! Think you can go to seven, Roisin? No, I was on four., Roisin? No, I was on four. Oh, shit. No, definitely not. All right, so he's got to name six people

from the, what is it, I believe the third Harry Potter film. Yep. Give it a go. Right, I'm going to go for Daniel Radcliffe, obviously.

Emma Watson. Sure. Can't even remember the ginger kids name okay that's not going to count but I believe Gary Oldman is in that one

right don't say you guys let's wait till he says six names what's his name this is going to be rough this is going to be rough What's his name? This is going to be rough. This is going to be rough.

Mr. Potter. Yeah, that's the guy. Yeah, he just walked in. Special guest. All right, you can't do it what's Robert what's his name what's Cracker

Robert no I'm fucked Roisin gets a point Robbie Coltrane Michael Gambon Richard Griffiths Alan Rickman Alan Rickman. Alan Rickman.

Yeah, Maggie Smith, Timothy Spall. I mean, all you have to do is just, if you'd have just thrown darts at a British actor's dartboard. Yeah, that was pretty much all of them. Is Jessie Cave in that one? Who? Jessie Cave. Maybe, but not listed in the top 21 names.

She's in it, right? Yeah. Maybe, yeah. There's probably a hundred actors in it. She's in it, right? Yeah. Maybe, yeah. There's probably a hundred actors in it. But Roisin's on the board with a point. Thank you.

Scoobius is the only one who doesn't have a point, but we have to start with Richard this round and then go to Roisin and you get to pick between these three films. Do you know more actors

from The Hunt from Red October? and you get to pick between these three films. Do you know more actors from The Hunt for Red October, Clear and Present Danger, or The Sum of All Fears? Which one of those do you think you can name more people? Probably The Hunt for Red October. Okay. Yay, someone in the audience says.

Leonard Liss, 8, 11, 13 names. Lucky 13. How many of those can you name? Well, two. I love the delicate nature of the bidding. Roisin, do you think you can name three people

from that film? No. No. Alright, so it's on Richard to name two people for the win. Two people from the hunt for Red October. Alright.

Hurry. Sean Connery and Sam Neill. Yeah. I thought you might have gone with Alec Baldwin because he played the title character. Yeah. That means Richard's our winner today. And Pip, start us off with your plugs.
