Doug hates candy wrappers screening baby sticky seeds with 50 as a pop or kernels in his teeth.
They're still not one that he won't see because Doug loves movies.
Hey, hey, hey everybody. My name is Doug and I love movies.
Yes, close
New Year's
Nice try
Coming to you once again
from the holiday taint
at the American
Comedy Company
in Sweet Home
San Diego
It's Saturday
December 27th
2025
are all alive.
Good for us.
Let's get
to what you're all here for.
Doug plugs.
Doug plugs.
Settle down.
That was exciting.
If you're in the O.C
on the day this episode
comes out, Monday, December
29th,
the next and only stop
on my annual taint tour
is tonight at the Irvine Improv
where I'll be doing stand-up with special guests
Amy Miller and Chad Opitz
looking to next year
the events and movie interruption
is back at Dynasty Typewriter
in L.A. on Wednesday, January 7th
and I'm doing stand-up at
Sports Drink in New Orleans,
Louisiana, January 9th, and 10th.
For all my dates and deeds and links, go to
Doug Lovesmovesmovies.com.
That's Douglovesmovies.
Yeah, cacaw.
Wallet, wallet, Teddancing, shh.
I did those in the wrong order, but that's basically what's supposed to happen there.
Are you ready to meet our guests today?
Well, you're going to have to wait because I want to tell you about the prize bag first.
It's a limited edition
Douglo's movies tote
I'll show it to the people
that will probably win it
and inside the bag
I stuffed a bunch of things that I have
sitting around the house
but I get some pretty cool things
that I don't know what to do with
like these
what are they called
smart glasses
I feel like just regular glasses
make me feel smart
but these, I guess, have like a camera in them or something.
That's pretty fancy.
Oh, I brought some snacks from the train that they hand out to you.
Oh, a copy of on DVD Weekend at Bernie's Two.
Yeah, see, some of you don't feel so bad about not being able to participate, do you?
A copy of the book, The Secret.
Got a nice...
Nice remnant to candy cane without a, without the twist.
It's just a straight-ass candy cane, like a barber pole.
I should have done these in a different order.
It didn't really build up to the best thing.
And then finally a dugout that he used to hold marijuana.
And it's from the company, the animation company, Tit Mouse, has their name on it.
I feel like that's something I got at like Comic-Con last summer.
And then Doug loves movies in a Doug Benson pin.
All of that is going to one of these people.
That's why people come down here to get that.
Some will travel from as far as Sandtee.
Now are you ready to meet our guests?
Give it everybody for Yorgo, Arzitis, Chad Opitz, and Mal Hall.
Hey, fellas. Thanks for coming.
Be very careful. They have super fancy new golden.
microphones here and every time you move it, we can hear the, like if you touch the cord
or move the cord around, see that, we can hear it. So it's the absolute best awful microphones
money can buy. Like, oh, isn't it neat that they're gold? Yep. And then that's where the
neatness stops. I'm going to have to write to my congressman or something to get microphones
back to normal. But they sure do look cool.
So good luck, fellas, not making noise with your microphones.
Let's meet them all individually and alphabetically by first name.
And coincidentally, they're sitting in that order as well.
He is a stand-up comedian and frequent guest on this podcast.
It's Chad Opitz.
Hello.
Hey, Chad.
Hello.
How was the drive down from Los Angeles?
There's a little bit of traffic, but, you know, I got here.
It all worked out okay.
That's the bottom line.
That is the bottom line.
You managed to get here.
What did it clock in at?
Three hours, you think?
About that.
Yeah, I would say about three hours.
That seems about average.
Yeah, not bad.
I took the train.
Took the same amount of time.
Oh.
Seen again, you got snacks on it?
I got snacks.
I got to like, you know, walk around.
I always like walking around on a train
because it feels so like
when you ever see a movie
where characters are on a train,
they're always walking from car to car.
You get to hit that button
that makes the door open.
And the whole time it's rattling,
it's like shaking back and forth
in a way that you're like,
oh, I could easily just smash my hip into something
and really hurt myself.
So that makes it very exciting and fun.
There's usually like a car filled with chickens.
I don't know if you notice that.
There's a chicken car.
In movies or in real life?
Because I could not find the chicken car today.
There's a lot of chicken cars.
I would have loved it because the snack box isn't great.
I would have loved to catch and kill and eat my own chicken.
Every train is Indiana Jones train in your brain.
Exactly.
That reminds me.
There are chickens in that plane that crashes in Temple of Doom,
and we never take any time to feel bad for them.
No.
It's a damn tragedy.
You know, Indian short round and the lady, they all jump out in a raft.
I don't know how that even worked.
He is a San Diego comedy feed.
Mal Hall is here, everybody.
Hey.
Hey, Mal, your latest spesh is called What Are We Doing Today?
Well, I'll tell you what we're doing here today.
We're going to play some movie trivia, your favorite.
Yeah, I am very scared.
I'm not a cinephile, so I'm just here to plug my special.
It's called What Are We Doing Today?
Please watch it.
It's streaming on YouTube at mallhallTV.com, and it's appropriate for all ages.
And it's hilarious and watch it with your family.
Is my commercial done, Doug?
Yeah.
So what are we doing today?
Is that a quote from like your child?
No, it's a quote that I say to my child.
I say to my child, yeah.
I don't cuss at people when we're in the car,
but I condescendingly yell at traffic.
What are we doing today, as I'm in no hurry to get anywhere?
And it's like my catchphrase with my kids.
And the kids don't understand the context.
So they're like, I don't know what we're doing today, Dad.
What are we doing today?
No, what is this traffic?
What are all these other people doing today?
Yes.
All these A-holes out here, keeping us from our important business.
Well, yeah, everybody do go check that out.
The first time Mal was on the show was in Salt Lake City,
and he was up against two guys that really know their stuff,
and he won.
So it's anybody's game.
You should not be intimidated that our third guest is an actual filmmaker
and recurring guest on the show.
It's Yorgo Art Citas, everybody.
Is it weird that I'm dressed
festively for three days ago?
I, you know, I never know what to do
about, you know, Christmas
and how long it's
supposed to last. I do know
that I will say what are we doing
today when I see Christmas lights after
what is this?
What do we do? I mean,
the idea that, like, Disneyland
keeps their lights out until January 2nd,
what are we doing today?
Yeah.
Oh, Disney will go to, like, Jan 7 or 9,
like, whatever the first.
the second Monday is or something like that they're milking it I bet Legoland San Diego's
own they're down the 25th at 1159 I love this place because the green room
back here if you've ever seen it it's a lot of fun wacky stuff going on and
they decorated by putting one small pillow that's the shape of the Christmas tree
on one of the chairs that was like unless they've taken it all down which I would
love that if I'm January 27th they're like that shit's got to go
leave the Christmas. Are you a big Christmas
person, though?
Like, it's your favorite holiday?
Is it my favorite holiday? I guess
so. I do like it. I like the fact that there's
movies based on it. But I
really, really, really
hate Christmas music
before about December 10th.
Yeah. I don't like it. I don't like Mariah Carey.
Like, come on, be loud.
We exist. We don't like Christmas
music way too early.
Like, come on. It drives
me nuts. There are people in my neighborhood that
put the lights up the day after
Halloween. Like, what are we doing
today? What are we doing?
It drives me nuts. I think what Mariah
Kerry does that after Halloween, I find that very
tacky. Yeah, yeah.
But there are really good Christmas
songs, and when it's the moment, there's like
how many good contemporary
Christmas songs do you think there are?
I mean, every
artist has to do them, but the trouble is
they just do covers. Yes.
You know what I mean? There's never a new one.
Yeah. And when there is a new one,
How are you going to...
You're not going to hear it a million times right away.
It's kind of become a classic over time.
It does need to snowball.
Like, Ariana Grande has Santa Tell Me,
which I think is probably the best one since Mariah Carey.
I'm sure you guys have heard it.
You've been at a Bloomingdale's or a J.C. Penny Penny Spears.
And that's about...
There's a Britney Spears one that I didn't know as Britney Spears.
There's the N-Sync one.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
He really wanted the crowd.
to sing a long. I did. I really did.
You guys left me out. That was a bummer.
I know we moved on to New Year's Day
or whatever, but come on.
I like, my favorite Britney
Spears Christmas song is,
Oops, I did it again.
You just have to think it's from Santa's perspective.
Yes, she's wearing a sexy
Santa, Santa, it's all red.
Oops, oops, I left my cookies out
again.
All right, Yorgo. What's going on with?
I finally saw your short,
troll and I enjoyed it quite a bit but what's next for you what's next troll was
very good I'm very excited I'm hoping that we get nominated for a webby fingers
crossed next I made a short film that's kind of in the same vein is anybody here
seen that Robert Zemeckis Tom Hanks movie here
Wow I base my movie around it so I'm sure that's great
but you know that movie was you know famous
underseen. Like it was a huge flop. I mean, I saw it and I didn't like it. So, like, it's
very weird. It does a lot of de-aging stuff. But I'm doing a movie like that, but instead of it
being a family who experiences alcoholism and Black Lives Matter, it is a streamer from 2010
to 2025 called Apple Seed. What?
Here.
the movie here
takes place one shot the entire time
right yeah they just locked down a camera
in like a place
where houses kind of come and go
and dinosaurs at one point I think
but it's all just
colonial people never moves looking at one direction
I like I like sped through it just out of curiosity
and it is wild how they commit
to such a boring concept
they do it and they go forward
they go to Black Lives Matter in coronavirus
they go back to colonial days,
they go to dinosaurs, all that.
I want to do that from about 2010 to 2025
where it's just one shot and you see
the aging of a fictional streamer
called Apple scene. Now I'm starting
to get it. Yes. I'm not
100% there, but I'm getting closer.
You know, I'm still trying to get warm on how to explain it. It's very
complicated. That's a bad place
to start with, have you seen the movie
home? Yes. You lose everybody
immediately. Oh, here.
It's called...
That's how much of an impression it made on you.
It's fun, yeah, I don't know.
I'm very excited about it.
Keep your eyes out for it.
Hopefully it does well.
But if you guys want to,
is anybody here familiar with Total Request Live?
Yeah.
Okay.
Back in 1999, one of the first ever successful troll campaigns,
the first ever successful troll campaign,
happened on Total Request Live,
where a whole bunch of internet sleuths
and an assholes decided to get together
and challenge Total Request Live's voting process
by trying to get a 10-year-old music video
by new kids on the block,
hanging tough on.
And what happened is that it ran away with the boats.
And it left Total Request Live
with kind of an ultimatum.
Do you risk the credibility of your countdown
and not put it on and disregard it?
Or do you let the trolls win?
and my movie Troll is
explaining that story
a little nostalgia run
through a lot of Windows 95 stuff
and it's very funny
and all the people that were involved
were there like Dave Holmes
who's I think is a past guest on this show
and he's been on you
and we got some of the
we got a new kid on the block to talk about it
so it's a lot of fun
you just check it out at troll dock.com
Yeah
oh yeah
that's a troll too
Well, before we play some games today, as I always do, I would like each one of you to recommend a movie that you think people might enjoy.
We'll start with Chad.
It could be, you know, something old, something new, whatever you want.
I just recommend one movie.
I just bought a ticket to, I'm going to go see it on January 2nd.
The new 4K restoration of the movie Sorcer by William Friedk.
that's from 1977 for a tangerine dream score
really cool movie
highly recommend that one
it's kind of an adventure movie
kind of not it's weird
I love it though good flick
I think it's the thing he did right after
The Exorcist
Right so he could like do anything he won
Pretty much so he's like
Well I'll make a movie about a truck trying to go over a bridge
Pretty much yeah
That's it that's the whole thing
Yeah it fucking rocks by the way if you guys haven't seen it
It's awesome it's a great movie
Yeah, it's very good.
And I don't know why it's called sorcerer.
That's a weird title.
Did you know why it's called that?
Is the truck not called sorcerer?
Is it?
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I can't know why it's called a sorcerer.
That is such a good idea.
I can't remember any reason why it's called that.
It's a cool title, but it doesn't make sense.
It's bite your finger is suspenseful.
Like it is, it gets you.
Oh, nice.
Yeah.
It rocks.
And it's all practical.
Like all the stunt stuff is crazy.
It's because it looks like, oh, they're there and they could actually die doing this.
There's a scene where, like, a bridge is crossing a river on this rickety bridge,
and it's like, oh, they could easily all die here.
But they didn't.
Spoiler alert.
They don't die.
They didn't.
I just realized you can't spell Scorsese without sorcerer.
Oh, shit.
A lot of the same letters.
That's why they call that.
All right, Mal, what do you got?
I'm not a big Christmas person or Christmas movie person,
but my wife and I had five milligrams of gummy
and then watched Red One, the movie with the Rock,
the Santa Claus movie with the Rock on Amazon.
So are you recommending it?
Is it contingent on having a gummy first, do you think?
You know what?
I don't know, but five milligrams is a good amount, you know, wait for it to kick in, wait for until you're on the way up and then start that movie.
And that's really, that's a fun one.
That's the most recent movie that I've watched besides the Diddy Documentary.
How many milligrams for that one?
I was going to say, I was going to say, I did it with five milligrams last night, the second episode, and it is terrifying.
So it depends on what you want.
But Red One is right there.
I enjoyed it.
All right.
That movie, they tore it apart when it came out.
Like, it got terrible reviews, Red One.
That doesn't mean anything.
No, that's true.
That is a good point.
But also direct to a streamer kind of scares me.
But I remember watching it.
How old is it now?
A couple years, maybe?
I think it's a few years old.
Maybe 2023 or something.
Yeah, I saw it and I didn't like it.
But I...
you didn't have enough milligrams
how many milligrams does that I was going to say
how many milligrams though
I had too many
all right
Yorgo
I'm going to recommend a Christmas
movie because why not
I often say this is the coolest thing
about me that this is my favorite Christmas movie
I'm going to recommend Gremlin's
I hope all of you guys
have seen Gremlin's if you haven't
you should
it's very very cute and very very very terrifying
at the same time.
And they're going to make a third one, I heard.
Oh, what?
Yeah, yeah, they're going to make a third one.
And Chris Columbus is going to direct it
who wrote the original one, which I think is interesting.
But yeah, Grimlins Rocks.
I love watching all their hijinks.
They, for some reason, somehow got Snow White and the Seven Dwarves,
just got to use the footage somehow,
which Disney would never do nowadays.
That's all I got.
And don't eat after midnight.
Does it make you upset that they're going to make a new one
with like new technology because in like the you know the first one there's two right
there's two and yeah school and now it's going to be all new as a filmmaker does that bother you
well if they use cgii to do the grimlins i will be outside of the office with a pitchfork
100% yeah if it's not practical it's not really uh gremlin's and it drives me nuts okay
yeah so it'll probably i don't know though because like like chris columbus you know
obviously he wrote it and didn't direct it
but he
has gone on to direct
two of the Harry Potter movies
and produce the rest of them
so like
he's definitely not against CGI
yeah no they might go that route on this one
I hope they don't and to be fair
I don't know if any of you guys saw Space Jam
to the new legacy
but if you have not
the best part of the double feature with here
Nice.
That's an interesting rep theater
to go see those two
scheduled back to back.
But if you see Space Jam 2
The New Legacy, it's unwatchable
except for the two to three seconds
that the Grimlins are in it.
And they are
CGI in it.
So maybe, I don't know, but still,
it's tough.
And it sounds like they're going to make it
for kids, which is the complete opposite
of what it's supposed to be.
Yeah.
But yeah, Grimlins, go check it out of it.
Who hasn't seen it?
Everybody's seen it?
Everybody's scared of shame?
What's going on?
I don't know how you could live a life.
My entire family hadn't seen it.
I had to buy the Blu-ray.
My entire family hadn't seen it.
I was like, hey, what happens if you eat after midnight?
I was like, I don't know, you get fat.
I'm like, what?
My entire family hadn't seen it.
Also, though, like any time of day except for at midnight is technically after midnight.
This is a big thing.
That's like wearing white after Labor Day.
When does it go back around?
Like 6 a.m. maybe?
I think Don.
Don.
I would assume Don with their kind of roles.
But the water thing is even crazier.
You can't be in rain?
That's nuts.
Yeah, like, you know, in these new wicked movies, like somehow there's a wicked witch,
and then the entire, all of Oz is like sitting around going,
hey, I heard if you throw a water on her, that'll kill her.
And I'm like, so get a fucking fire hose and get this dumb.
It's so weird out there walking around with a pail of water.
I'm going to get that witch.
It's like they have to wait for Dorothy to do it.
It doesn't make any sense.
You can't really walk around with sunlight in Kremlin's, you know.
You can have a fat flashlight, though.
All right, let's take a break.
Great recommendations, guys.
We're going to play some games after these messages.
We're back.
Woo!
Oh, boy, that was a fun selection process that we had.
And for the listeners, I'll tell you whom my guests are playing for today.
Chad is playing for Aaron Force One.
And Mal is playing for Kimdom of the Planet of the Apes.
And Yorgo is playing for Emily.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Oh, Emily!
But Emily, I should say, made a lovely embroidery of the Doug Loves movies logo.
So thank you for doing that, Emily.
And good luck.
As I said earlier, it's really anybody's game today.
Anybody could win this thing.
And the first game we're going to play today is something that I call Purple Rain Man.
This is a movie mashup.
title game, I'm going to give
you the casts of
I mash together
two movie titles and I'm going to give you
the top three build people
in one of the titles and the top three
build people in the other title
going third billy, second
billing, first billing. And
at any point you can guess what the movie
mashup title is but hopefully
by the time you've heard
all of the names from both of the movies
someone will get it.
Every once in a while
the panel gets stumped
and we'll see if that happens today.
I feel good about it.
I feel strong.
Any questions about the rules?
I have no idea what's happening, Doug.
Yeah, I don't know if we've played this when you've been on the show before,
but I'll talk you through it.
Okay.
All right.
So third build in this movie mashup title,
like the game's called Purple Rain Man
because of Purple Rain and Rain Man.
Like there's a common word in the middle there.
And so I'm going to say the third-billed people,
so it would be the person with third-billing in the first title
and the person with third-billing in the second title.
They are Jeff Goldblum and Sinbad.
Oh.
The great Sinbad, the great one-named man,
is third-billed in the second of the two titles.
All right.
the people that are second built since there's no guesses yet ariana grande and keenan thompson
somebody in the audience just said i got it yeah you know who keenan thompson is and you know who ariana
grand is so we got jeff goldblum and arian grande are the first movie oh and
Wicked Good Burger.
Wicked Good Burger.
Wicked.
Good Burger.
You got to say it exactly right.
There's nothing wicked for Good Burger.
That's it.
That's it.
You forgot the four and four good.
Yes, Wicked for Good.
So the top billed was, of course, Cynthia Revo, and Kell Mitchell got top billing over Keenan.
It's Keenan and Kell, and somehow Kell walked away to top billing.
on that one, but of course
the classic movie, Good Burger.
None of you guys have seen either of the Wicked
movies, right? I saw the first one and refused
to see the second. Because if you didn't...
Seriously, there's never the history of cinema
been a more clear delineation. If you did
not like Wicked Part 1,
that's it. Like, there's
no reason. It does not get
better. No, I did... I was out.
I understand
that it's just... I don't want to yuck anybody
he's young, but it's not for me. And I love
musicals. Musicals rock. Little Shop of Horace.
High School Musical.
Wait.
I put those in the same, and Greece.
Those are my three.
Damn.
Wicked, get the fuck down there. I don't want to listen to Wicked.
Because I like Wicked
Part 1 a lot, but just like the stage
musical, the second
act is really lacking.
Tapers a little bit? Yeah.
Well, because first of all, it's less fun.
It's pretty dramatic all the way through,
It's like, you know, everybody's sad the whole time.
And, you know, and like I said, there's all that business with the fucking water.
It turns it to Chinatown in the second park.
Like, it's a rumor that water will kill.
Like, no, but there's no facts.
Like, nobody's ever met a green witch before in this world.
And then they're just like, I heard water will do it.
Water, maybe.
It's supposed to be, Dorothy throws the water on her because she does nothing.
She doesn't know what to do.
Yeah, a green thing that dies from water?
What is the signs?
Come on.
It really is.
It's an absolute signs rip-off.
I'm glad someone's finally figured it out.
All right, so congratulations to Chad.
He won that first game, but all that means is that he gets to or has to go first in our next game.
And it's something that I call, that's fantastic.
That's Fantastic is a game that I invented at a film festival called Fantastic Fest
and it deals with movies that are a little, you know, off the beaten path and have odd titles.
But in this particular case, look at that.
Beverages. Do you have enough room for everything?
No.
That's how scared I am.
Ooh, is Chad getting a backup toddy?
Did you find more honey?
She found more honey.
You found more honey?
If anybody's in the market for a toddy, they can make them now.
You know what?
If they ran out of honey, they could have just dipped a gold microphone in there.
Probably give it a similar flavor.
All right, so this game, here's how it works.
This particular edition of this game is movies.
You know how everybody spent the last month as they,
do every year now arguing about whether
or not Die Hard is a Christmas movie?
Well, this is unconventional
Christmas movies. Movies like
Die Hard where one could make a
case that it's not a Christmas
movie, even though there's a bunch of Christmas
shit in it. So,
I'm going to say the title of the movie to Chad,
and then I'm going to give him three
options. He has to
pick one. If he's right,
he gets a point. If he misses,
then Mal gets to
pick between the remaining two choices.
And if Malmuses, then your goal will get the gimmee point because there'll only be one option left.
And each time somebody gets one right, the next person will go first on the next round.
You ready, Chad?
Yep.
Great movie.
Takes place at Christmas.
So it's a Christmas movie to me.
Okay.
The Long Kiss Good Night.
Now the question is, who's in it?
Brian Cox, Alan Ruck.
Or both.
Brian Cox.
That is correct.
Brian Cox from a succession is in that movie that stars Gina Davis and Samuel L. Jackson,
and I highly recommend it around the holidays or any time.
That's the fun thing about the die-hard argument is when people are
are like, it's not a Christmas movie? Okay, they don't
watch it at Christmas. You know, like
you watch it, that's what's so great
about it is it's got Christmas shit in there, but it works
year round. 100%.
People are like, it's not a Christmas movie
it was released in July. Yes.
And I'm like, yeah. Just like Grimlins. But there's
lots of, yeah. It's a fucking summer movie.
What are you going to do? It's an action movie. Who cares? Yeah.
Comes out on video. We didn't care at the time
when it came out in the summer of whatever year that
was, no one was going, was this Christmas
shit out now? Yeah.
We were just like big building go boom.
And has everyone here seen Long Kiss Good Night?
Who hasn't seen it?
In many interviews, Samuel Jackson, he always talks about that movie.
He's always like, that's one of the best movies I ever made.
Yeah.
Because he loves it.
And it's a great movie, so if you haven't seen it, you should check it out.
It's got one of the best Samuel Jackson lines of all time is he says,
I don't make assumptions because that makes a fool of, uh, delivered flawlessly.
You should make assumptions
because that makes an ass out of you and umptions.
Yeah, it's better when he does it.
What's in your wallet?
All right.
Mal, you're up first on this next one.
Cool.
Here we go.
Also, it takes place during the holidays,
but many do not consider it a holiday movie.
Twelve monkeys.
Now, does that movie feature
Christopher Plummer, Christopher Maloney, or both?
Hmm.
I'm going to go both.
You're going both.
Yeah.
What's the thinking behind that?
You know, because I don't know who either one of those people are, so...
This is called a shot in the dark, bang, bang, bang, both.
Well, you hit the target.
That is correct.
So scared.
This is absolutely unintentional, Yorgo, but your name is in the next title that I'm going to share.
The movie Go takes place around the holidays.
There's a Christmas rave in it.
And here's my question to you about Go, Yorgo.
Does it feature Melissa McCarthy, Jane Krakowski, or both?
Oh, fuck.
I think it's Jane Krakowski.
Final answer?
Incorrect.
Fuck me right in the...
God damn it.
We go over here to Chad.
This is his time to dominate.
I say both.
Chad says both because that is correct.
Boom.
Yeah, Melissa McCarthy and Jane Kerkowski both have supporting roles,
and they're both that make a very good,
humorous impression.
I thought,
you know what I mean? Like, I liked them
in that when I saw it.
I don't know anything from Melissa
McCarthy before Bridesmaids. It's like she
was just, like,
just existed. That was, you know,
that was really her big entree as far as, like,
movies go. She was known to
TV viewers from her role on Gilmore
Girls. Oh, and what,
Mike and Molly. And then she had
Mike and Molly for a while, and then
Then the movies started happening.
She crushed on Bridesmiths, though.
I think Melissa McCarthy's money in the bank, like you go see a Melissa McCarthy movie,
there's a 50% chance.
You're going to love it.
50%.
Pretty good.
Pretty good odds.
It's funny because the coin flip sounds like a movie she'd be in.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Some are better than others, is what I'm trying to say.
But I always like her, and I like her effort.
All right.
she's a great
SNL host whenever she does that.
Okay, so who got that one?
That was...
Craig.
What?
Chadley.
Chad.
Chad.
Chad.
Chad.
Chad.
All right.
So we go to Mal for this next one.
You have to know this movie, Mal.
Okay.
Edward Scissorhands.
Uh-huh.
Christ.
Very Christmassy.
Lots of snow is happening in that movie.
And the question is,
Anthony Michael Hall, Nick Carter, or both?
Anthony Michael Hall.
Incorrect. Your go.
This is your chance to get on the board.
You said Nick Carter.
Yeah, the Nick Carter.
The Nick Carter of Backstreet Boys' fame.
Yeah.
It has to be both.
What are you? Some sort of deductive reason there?
Yeah.
Yeah.
So you're going both?
I saw it like three weeks ago.
Yeah.
Anthony Michael Hall's in it.
So Nick Carter must have been like a boy number one.
Right.
At least you do that much.
So that helped you out a lot because that is correct.
Woo!
Emily.
We're trying.
We're trying.
We're coming back.
From the depths.
Yeah.
Nick Carter plays neighbor.
Neighbor.
Neighbor.
Yeah.
So I don't know how involved he gets in the story.
He's not larger than life.
I haven't seen it in a long time.
But you really.
just watched it? I just watched
Edwards, there's an answer. Did you like it?
I liked what it was going for,
but it's not one of my favorites. Because it just
by the time it's over, you've had enough of it, right?
Like, it's fun for a while. Yeah, it's like, okay, I get the novelty of it, and I
like the colors of the suburb with his
gothic stuff going to the clash there, but
just not for me. I didn't... Alan Arkin, is he in it? Is Alan Arkin
in it? Not to my knowledge. I don't remember.
Chad says he is. Is Alan Arkin in it?
Isn't he the dad in it? I think he's the dad in it.
Oh, he is.
I get Arkin and Alda
fucked up all the time.
Arkin is, he's awesome.
He's great as to that time.
Yeah, all right.
Well, you're on the board, Jorgo.
This is very exciting.
Chad, this is your chance to
lock this up.
Bring us home, Chad.
The movie's called The Ice Harvest.
I love it.
It's really good.
But the question about it is,
Aaron Paul
Brian Cranston
or Giancarlo Esposito
Which one is in it?
Ooh
Damn, it's been a long time since I've seen this movie
You remember liking it though, right?
I did like it.
Billy Bob and John Cusack
Correct?
Oliver Platt.
Oliver Platt?
One of the best drunken
performances
captured on film.
Yeah, he was really good.
Really?
Better than ready to rumble.
Who's drunk and ready to rumble?
He's drunk in it a lot.
Platt is.
Oh, Platt is?
Yeah.
Platt is?
Oh, maybe that's just his thing.
I think he's good at playing drunk.
Yeah.
Really good.
Platt's my fucking favorite.
I love Platt.
Oh, man.
I'm going to go, I don't know this.
I'm going to say Esposito, Giancarlo Esposito.
I don't know.
Seems like he would be in it.
You know, I named three people from the, like, Breaking Bad Universe.
And you got it.
That was a guess.
Total guess.
That means Chad won that game.
That's a guess.
No skill.
I didn't know that.
But that doesn't mean that don't count out the other two fellas.
People in the kitchen are losing their minds.
Just throwing shit around because they don't know.
I don't know which way this shit is going to go.
But yeah, the ice harvest.
A plot if you've ever seen the ice harvest.
Not a lot.
And he added a woo for a reason, right?
It's really good.
John Woo?
Yeah.
No, it's just a really good movie.
It's like, you know, kind of a heist thing, but it's very cold and wintry.
And like I said, Oliver Platt kills it with the drunk work.
and we have to go to our next commercial break.
We'll be right back.
We're back.
We are back.
Oh, shit.
Thank you, American Comedy Company.
I didn't even ask for another beverage.
They were sneaky with it, too.
And then I just realized that I have two of the same things sitting.
here. Okay, here we
go. Somebody's
going to get drunk.
Okay.
We have one game
left to play, and
we have such polite
guess. Things are going so
smoothly and quickly.
It's a good thing that this next game
is a monster. It's something that I call
the little search engine that
could.
In this game, I pick a word and then I type it into the search engine on the Internet
Movie Database, aka I.M.D.B. And then I look at the result, and I write down the
top 10 movies that according to their algorithm are popular today and in that order.
I'll tell you the word
then the three of you we're going to go
through systematically one by one
you're going to take turns
naming movies
that have that word in the title
or if you can't think of one
just guess a phrase with that word
in the title that you know
could be
you know could actually be a movie
you know like if the word were yet
you could be like are we there yet
which is a
common expression but is also
also the title of a movie.
And we'll go through, and if you pick a movie that's number one on the list,
that's worth 10 points.
Number 10 on the list is worth one point.
Family feudal.
All those points in between.
Yeah, it's a little more, you know, they have 100 points or whatever.
They've divided up between on that show.
But this one, the most you can get for the top answer is 10.
But you'll each get three guesses ultimately.
But at any point, and I tell people, it doesn't hurt to go early with this, you can ask the person that you're playing on behalf of for their input.
They can tell you one title, you can use it or reject it, and if you reject it, then you'll have to name something else.
Be ready, Kim. Be ready.
Yeah, that's the thing.
It's, you know, if you go to your person after a bunch of movies have been named, they,
might be out of suggestions
as well. You just never know
how it's going to shake out, so you've got to be real
strategic about it.
We'll start with Chad. We'll flip
the order around. It goes, Chad, then your
go, then
Mal, and
Chad, you get to
start us off. And the word
I decided, since
it's the end of the year, as we
know it, the word
is end.
movies with the word end
in the title
I'll give you another second to think about it Chad
because I just sprung it on you
and of course you could start
by going to your
you can you know
ask Aaron
Aaron Force One I'm going to do that
he's going to ask Aaron Force One right out of the gate
Right out of the gate can you think of a movie Aaron
that has the word end in the title
Weekend
Everness
Oh we
Because the weekend at Bernie's two.
At Bernice.
Yeah, yeah, do you want to go a weekend at Bernie's one or two?
And did they make a third one?
I don't think so.
I don't know.
I probably wouldn't be asking if it was on this list, would I?
Chad, do you want to go with that or pick one of your own?
As much as I love that movie, I'm not going to go with it.
Maybe I'm fucking up here, but I'm going to go with something else.
I'm going to go with this is the end.
This is the end with Seth Rogan and Jonah Hill and a bunch of those guys is number two on the list.
I don't think it would be that high.
I didn't think I'd be that high either, but here we are.
All right, so Chad is on the board with nine points, which, you know, seems like a lot at this stage,
but there's still the number one movies worth 10 points.
And then, you know, you could still gather.
points with some of the lesser titles.
We'll go to your go next.
Yes.
With his first guest.
Do you want to do it yourself or get some help?
I'm unfortunately going to do it myself.
I'll wait for my lifeline later.
I'm very, very excited that Chad did not say this name
because I'm very confident that it's going to be number one.
As it is one of the biggest movies of all time, I'm going to go Avengers Endgame.
Oh.
Avengers End game.
Avengers Endgame.
Wow.
I could be wrong.
I could be wrong.
Yeah, that's interesting.
I don't know exactly how the algorithm
deals with that when you just type in E-N-D.
Well, you do know.
Well, I know.
He's playing, he's playing toy.
I don't get how this works.
I was just saying I hadn't thought of that.
Well, that's bad.
Because endgame is one word in that title, right?
Yes, true.
But he said Weekend to Bernie, so I thought everything was open.
Right, but then we quickly established that was a bad answer.
Listen, I just lived through an atmospheric river, okay?
I don't need all this.
We'll see.
Listen, it was the best move at the time.
I'm already apologizing for it.
I don't know the results.
Somebody should do a new version
of Justin Timberlake's
Cry me a River
and Atmospheric
Cry me and atmosphere
It's hard to get in there
You'd have to sing it really weird
But that would be funny
But with regards to Avengers
Endgame
No I'm sorry it did not make it
It's not
It's not over yet
It's not over yet
I like that attitude
Yes
Yeah you're a real Marty Supreme
Okay so
Yorgo's first guest didn't work out so good
but let's see
you have anything let's see what Mal has to say
oh he's going right to the life thing
that was
that was mine too I was like I got one
that is I mean I love
that you were like thinking that was going to be number one
yeah yeah I was wrong
it's really disappointing
it's like on family feud when somebody's like
tits
And then, it's like, all right, come on.
What is that not?
100 people didn't think tits?
100 didn't?
Come on.
Survey says, no.
That's like a minute of Steve Harvey
just shaking his head.
You're having a survey says right over there.
I like that Steve Harvey has reached that age
where, like, the young contestants
will often say a word
and he just doesn't even know what it means.
And he'll just make a face like they're being stupid.
And then when it's on the box,
board, he's like, okay.
Oh, wow.
La Boo-boo, really?
Yeah.
It's a lobooboo.
Wow.
I don't know what Labu-Boo is.
Come on.
That's a spot on Steve Harvey.
That's pretty good, right?
You've got to keep doing that in front of people, dude.
Get me a mustache.
I got a Halloween costume.
I'm telling him.
That's how Yorgo's stand-up career started.
That's what it says.
Steve Harvey impression.
The band.
was playing when the sink was the ship was sinking come on wait that's Steve Harvey talking
about Titanic yeah the ban was still playing come on you don't remember that from
king's comedy everybody got it yeah it's the funniest bit of all time he flips over the
table he pretends like he's doing it he takes out a handker ship blows it like it's a sale it's
very funny great
I'm loving this.
All right, Val.
Is there a movie called The End?
I bet there is.
That's my answer.
The End.
Yeah.
I can't find it.
Seems like it would be.
There is a movie called, there's at least one or two.
I think there's two movies called that.
I think there's one with Tilda Swinton and another one that was starred Bert Reynolds.
And I think it was his, he directed it as well.
Him and Dom Deloese.
Yeah.
I was thinking about the Burt Reynolds one, obviously.
Yeah, but unfortunately, neither of them made the list.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry to say, man.
But it was a splendid effort.
This was harder than I thought it would be.
What do you think next, Chad?
I'm going to say, The World's End.
Tremendous cast.
The Edgar Wright motion picture.
The third part of the so-called
Cornetto Trilogy
because all three movies featured that
brand of ice cream
cone thing. Is that the way
called the Cornetto Trilage? Yeah, because
somebody like Nick Frost
or somebody's eating one in all three
movies. Holy shit. I didn't even know that. Okay. I think
in at World's End, I think a cornetto
rapper blows up onto a fence
at one point. But
yeah, it's in all three of the movies.
And Chad
is just unstoppable because it did make
the list and it is number five on the list.
That's like, that applause was like a really good golfer, sinking an easy put.
Like I was like, okay, a little golf applause.
But that gives Chad five more points, so this shit's getting serious.
I'm glad we all have drinks.
Yorgo
Emily
She's got
Emily says she has half an answer
Yeah how does that work
Oh yeah
Oh shit
Right
Seeking a friend for the end of the world
Is that what you're thinking of?
Is that what you're thinking of?
Seeking a friend for the end of the world?
Seeking a friend for the end of the world
the independent motion picture
from 15 years ago.
Where will it be ranked?
Yorgo's so critical
if someone that's just trying to help him.
No, she's right.
I'm going to guess it probably.
I got nothing.
I can't use any conjunctions.
Conjugations of end.
I wanted to do happy endings.
I had a whole thing going.
Oh, right. Yeah. There's a lot.
I'm going to go
seeking a friend
for the end of the world.
That's your answer?
Yeah.
Did you ever see that movie?
I watched the first 40 minutes and then fell asleep.
And you think it was 15 years ago?
I would say, I think it came out in 2012,
2013, so I was being...
That's pretty amazing to remember
how long into it you fell asleep.
From that long ago.
You really held...
some sort of weird grudge
with that movie
like it was so boring
and I tapped at 40
yeah
so you're watching it at home
I hope so
I don't think I was
Are you a theater sleeper?
I want to be but I'm not as much as I wanted to
I was supposed to sleep during
the seats that like fully recline
I can't do it
I can't even if I'm enjoying a movie
I'll go to sleep
It's really I mean we both get stoned before movies
so that helps too
but like during Eddington I started dozing a little bit
well that was a little dozer you deserve a break
yeah during Eddington
I still haven't seen it yet it's so daunting
like that's the other thing that's driving me crazy about like
award season movies is and movies in general
these days action movies too everything has to be over two
hours two 15 two and a half like they're all just
everything's too long like everybody's like I don't know what the logic
is behind making super long-ass movies
like, you know, make a sequel or
make a, you know, or add the bonus
scenes to the DVD, but like,
let's cut this shit down a little bit.
Well, my theory is that streaming
numbers are all measured in minutes, and so having a longer
movie, if you fall asleep halfway through, maybe you get
an extra 60. Oh, yeah,
that's why, I bet you
no one stayed awake during the Irishman.
No.
That was like three and a half hours
long. I'm like, come on. And I still got to hear
people say it's a masterpiece. It's like,
Come on.
The de-aging drives me nuts.
Like, as soon as de-aging happens in a movie, I'm like, okay, this movie's fine, but
like that I cannot take.
And Wicked fucking for Good.
Wicked Part 2 does de-aging on Jeff Goldblum.
Really?
And it is so bad that it lasts for like eight seconds.
We saw him be de-aged.
We saw him be younger.
And he was hot.
You can't bring that back.
You can't put the toothpaste back in the tube.
No, no.
It looks weird.
It doesn't look like a real person.
It looks like a weird.
I never saw Dial of Destiny because of it.
I refuse.
Oh, yeah.
That's a good point.
That's what's so great about the third Indiana Jones movie is that prologue
where a perfectly cast River Phoenix plays a young Indiana Jones.
Perfectly.
Like, I love that kind of thing.
And also, who's aged better than Jeff Goldblum?
He looks good as hell.
Right.
It's a sexy old man.
I'm telling you.
I want to see his old ass.
He, fuck it, he ages like a Toyota.
It's just, there's no,
no matter how many miles you put on him.
He's making all the right life choices,
and they're like, we're going to de-age you with CG.
Fuck you.
I look good as hell.
Well, this is super fun because
it feels like Chad's going to get all the points.
Wait, was I wrong?
The world thing?
Oh, I thought we'd just move on and not make a fake.
I don't want to make a big deal about it, you know.
I wanted that 10 spot.
Emily is so nice.
And, you know, you're...
Emily, it was a hot 11.
It was an 11 for sure.
Hot 11.
You're doing your best, Yorgo.
I just didn't feel like there's any reason to rub it in with a...
But, no, I'm sorry.
Seeking a friend for the end of the world.
did not make the cut.
Mal, what are you doing over there?
These are all just guesses.
Yeah, I love it.
Wits and.
Oh, that's a terrific guess.
That seems like it should be.
That seems like it would be a movie.
Totally, I think, I'm pretty sure it was.
I think it was a play, or maybe it was just called Wits.
Now I think about it.
It was a play, and then they made it in a movie.
It's not making me feel confident
that it's on the list.
It was about Emma Thompson has cancer
and so
you're watching her go through that journey
but she's incredibly witty
until the end.
Hence, yeah.
It's the end of the wit.
Get out of here, Witt.
It's over.
Was the working title.
And I'm sorry, Mal.
That's not,
did not make the cut.
Terribly sorry to say that.
Kim, do you have anything else in your head?
Okay, cool.
Wait, you're double checking with your lifeline?
Yeah, I was just...
Just after the guess, nobody did.
Because you haven't used her yet?
I have not used her yet.
But she says she's got nothing.
Yeah, she's as scared as I am right now.
Somebody whispered into her ear,
a movie that has, you know what I mean?
her out but don't let
Mel here
but we're back to Chad
who just wants to rub everybody's
face in this win
with
a third title
what do you got Chad
I'm gonna go okay I vividly remember seeing
vivid memory vividly remember
seeing this movie in the theater
when it came out
Arnold Schwarzenegger's end of days
because the guy in front
of me like
fucking love this movie so much
so much and there's a scene at the end of the movie
where he's Arnold's got like a hidden gun or something
he poses like oh die put you know
shoot somebody and this guy in front of me goes
only Arnold would have thought of that
he said that out loud in the theater
only Arnold
he was like whoa
only Arnold would have thought of that
and I love oh man his joy brought me so much joy
because I thought that movie was okay but I was like
that was a pretty good movie because of this guy
He had elevated the movie for me, this guy in front of me.
Yeah, Kevin Pollack, who's been on this show a bunch, he's in that movie and has funny stories.
Oh, I bet.
And, you know, Andy can do the impression.
That was my impression of Kevin Pollock.
Doing Arnold, yeah.
Wait, so that's your answer?
End of days, isn't what it's called?
Let me take a look here.
I mean, it feels like if you're saying it, Chad, it must be on the list.
And it is.
Wow.
It is number six on the list.
Wow.
Woo.
End of days indeed.
It's end of Mal and Yorgo's days.
We're not doing that.
As having any chance of winning today because Chad ran away with it.
But now this part's fun because now it's just a matter of seeing how much more.
Well, they're still number one.
There's still number one.
It could be fucking weekend at Bernie.
Somebody.
If it's fucking weekend at Bernice
If it's fucking weekend at Bernice
Take it!
Oh man, that'd be fun.
That'd be super fun.
But what do you think,
Giorgo?
Do you want to commit to Weekend at Bernice?
No, I don't want to commit to any other.
No, I'm very, very upset.
Movie.
I want to just, I may be more recent,
because that's part of it too,
is there's obviously older movies slip in there,
but like, you know,
people are searching on I.
MDB for, you know,
sort of more current stuff sometimes.
Or end of days, which is
why? Why are you looking for end of day?
Well, you know, it's not that high up on the
list of movies with end.
Once you've narrowed that down,
who knows how many people actually
searched it. I had a whole thing
if it was going to be, you know, I had Enders game.
I had a whole bunch of things.
What else? I want to hear these.
The happy endings.
Obviously, Avengers End game was going to be
huge. Everybody was going to stand.
up, be like, yeah, you're right.
You do it the whole time.
Now, I'm going to go just straight up
out of the blue guess
that there is a movie called The End.
I already said that.
That was my guess.
Remember?
I was shooting in the dark.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang.
If you don't mind, I'm just going to...
Guess it again, though.
It was a good one.
Guess it again.
I'm going to go fuck myself.
I'm sorry.
I apologize.
Just give me a second.
I'm going to go fuck myself.
I'll be right back.
Has anybody...
I'm doing Weekend at Burney's fucking.
We're doing Weekend of Burnties.
I want to now...
We're doing Weekend of Burnties.
It's all we got.
Weekend of Buries one or two?
Oh.
Oh, man.
The reason I have a DVD of Weeker of Burney's
that I'm passing along to someone today
is because at the show I do in L.A.,
the Benson movie interruption,
people bring movies in
and then all of us, the audience
and the other comedians,
we pick a movie to watch
and then we make fun of it
or try to
and so the choice recently
a few months ago
was Weekend at Bernie's 2
that's how I ended up
with the DVD
because the person who brought it
was like I don't even want it
I don't even want it anymore
but we watched it
and not only is it terrible
it's hilarious
because you know in the original weekend
at Bernie's Bernie dies
and they have to pretend he's alive,
so they prop him up and carry him around
and put sunglasses on him.
And, you know, hijinks ensue.
But when you get at Bernie's 2,
he's still a corpse.
That hasn't changed.
But there's a voodoo priestess
puts a curse on him,
a spell on him.
That causes him to dance
when he hears music.
That's only in the second one.
That's only in the second one.
Oh, wow.
So this guy has to be a dead body, but also do these funny dances while also remaining dead.
And, you know, he's great in a conga line, of course, you know, and stuff like that.
But it's such a ridiculous movie.
But the dance is awesome.
The dance is awesome.
It's a good dance.
Yeah, if I just saw that sequence, I'd be okay.
But the rest of the movie is awful rough.
It's, you know, Andrew McCarthy and Jonathan Silverman just overacting like mad.
Like, neither of them was ever hired to be in a comedy ever again.
All right, so.
Brad's, the documentary is kind of a comedy.
It's very funny.
Have you seen that documentary?
Oh, about the Brat Pack?
Yeah, where he's like, didn't this ruin your life?
And everybody's like, no.
What the fuck are you talking about?
This is fine.
No, the Brad Pack, it ruined my life.
No, it didn't.
Shut the fuck up.
Demi Moore.
No, it made his life.
Yeah.
He could have taken an event, you know,
like Emilio Estafez, like, started directing movies and stuff
because he was a famous guy from this stupid brat pack.
Yeah, he made Maximum Overdrive and other great things like, and Bobby.
Who doesn't remember Bobby?
Anyway, so Weekend and Bernie's one or two?
Who remembers Eddie of Emilio Estavis's filmography as a director?
I'm big on his oeuvre.
I'm big on Emilio Sheen's Urve.
He did that one with Demi more than I can't remember the name of.

So that to Kim.
But it doesn't have a question mark.
It's just dead end.
It's not dead end?
And I forget who's in it, but it was, you know, it was a movie nobody knows about.
From 2023.
Yeah.
So it must have been like a straight to something kind of experience.
But that still means that Mal got some points on the board.
But with, let's see here, 14, 19 points,
Chad Opitz is our winner.
All right, Chad.
Before I tell people the rest of the movies
that begin with N that are on this list,
including number one, which might surprise,
I'll just say it, it will surprise,

Yorgo's going to be where you want to look
during this.
I'm on bated breath right now. I can't wait.
I'm going to be so mad. He's going to make some very
angry faces.
And his face is going to match
his Christmas sweater.
Red.
It's red for everybody at home.
Oh, this is fun, Yorgo. I'll give you like one clue
and then you tell me the title.
Another opportunity to fail. Are you ready?
Jason Siegel
in
the end.
of the tour
from the end of the tour
oh I would have never got that
god damn it I saw I've seen that
I put it on for 15 minutes and I was like I don't want to watch this
and then yeah it's about that
author that everybody loves David Foster Wallace
yeah yeah yeah it's with Eisenberg
yeah yeah I think Siegel was really good
in it I think he came close to like a best actor
nomination and then
is that number one no number 10
yeah this is like family feud we don't start with the
exciting but number nine merchant ivory Chad knows it what is it
no but that's a that's another one that's should be on here but isn't it's called
Howard's Ends End yeah yeah that was a big movie but it's it's been a minute
it's been a while it's been a while all right I'm not playing this game with you
any more, Yergo. I'm just going to say it.
I skipped number nine.
Number nine was the end of the affair
with Ray Fines
was in that. And then
of course, number
seven, this
is funny because we were discussing
this franchise in the green
room before the show.
God damn it.
What's it called, Yorgo?
Pirates the Caribbean.
at World's End?
Yes, that's it.
Oh, fuck.
Golly.
Wow.
Yeah.
All right.
Number three,
jumped all the way up to number three,
is a movie that I like a great deal
that stars
it stars Jake Gyllenha
and Michael Pena
as police officer.
Oh, end of watch.
End of watch, yes.
There are cops in that.
Fuck me.
It's really good.
See, I knew you were going to do these.
I know.
bad at this exact game.
I play this game three times, and I've embarrassed myself
every single time. It's a hard game.
Yeah. Yeah. It's tough. No, it's perfectly fine.
It's a good game. Not for him, but
for, you know, regular people.
It's hard game. It's not good. This game
and bowling, I just can't figure it out.
Number two is, of course, this
is the end. And number one,
a little bit of sadness with this answer
because, you know, we just lost the great
filmmaker.
But, Jesus.
There's a Nick Reiner fan back there.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, he's done.
Happy he's dead.
The full title of Spinal Tap 2 is The End Continues.
And it's number one because, of course, who's not looking up Rob Reiner movies right now?
So, yeah, that was the number one movie on the list.
RIP to a great filmmaker.
And by all accounts, a great man.
