cranking 88 minutes cuz they cool as ice cuz a bad Jim Barney looking kind and nice Paul and June getting literal Jason is getting laid June is making sure all the monkey shots getting paid They judge a bunch of movies while they're making the grade. Here's a real question for you. How did this get made? Hello, people. Los Angeles home. In Los Angeles, California, at the Largo at the Coronet Theater.

It's such a great place to perform, and it's a great night to talk about a classic film. Hello, Mary Lou, prom night two. Holy shit. To catch you up, if you've not seen this movie, in the 50s, a young girl is just about to be given her title. of prom queen when a jealous ex-boyfriend burns her alive with a stink bomb. Cut to 1987, she comes back from the dead-ish, questionable, we'll get into it,

and exacts revenge on everyone just at that high school and some of the people who, weirdly, are still at that high school from when she was there. It's a big old mess, but it's one of the best movies I've ever seen in my life. Here to break it down with me, my co-host. Please welcome Jason Manzoukas. What's up, jerks? What up, Jason? How are we doing, everybody?

I'm gonna be serious right now, dead serious. I love this movie. This movie's got it all. I literally wrote against. 50s, 80s, boobs, butts. Michael Ironside. This movie's. got everything. You know what this movie has none of?

Exposition. You don't need it. It's like Empire Strikes Back. Nobody ever says, you know what I think might be happening? Nobody ever says, I've figured it out. This is what we need to do. The events of the movie just unfold. Like Avengers Affinity War, if you have not been there for the first ten, why bother now? Jason, what I'll say about this movie is, Every actor is going for it.

Hard. And I don't mind it. Going forward hard. I like it. Every person in this movie is maybe the greatest actor of their generation. So many of these people I've never heard of again. And yet here they are doing unbelievable work. And there's no better person to break down this tale than my other co-host.

She is in a movie that is coming out. It's called Long Shop. Please welcome June Diane Rayfield. Welcome June. Hi, Paul. How are you? Fine. How are you? I'm great. June, when I told you it was a scary movie,

your reaction was simply, oh, fuck. Yes, and I was scared at points, but I have to say I also rather enjoyed this motion picture. Okay, so that woman is truly a star. Okay. This is Vicki. We're talking about me. That's what I'm saying.

Never before have I seen. seen such great work. And by the way, life-sized rocking horse in your room. Look. But I kept on waiting for it, to be revealed that she was like a horse girl. Like one of those girls who loves horses. No. I don't, I don't think she is.

No. By the way, that, the size of that is revealed late in the movie, I felt like. But she doesn't ride. She's not a rider. She's not an equestrian. We don't know that. This is a masturbation device. We understand this to be a masturbation device, right? When her father comes in and she's like,

this whole movie's an allegory for sexual awakening, is it not? This isn't this the scene where she then, like, Stone Cold Tong kisses her dad? Yep. Who doesn't protest much? Who is into it? He's legit into it. We'll get into it.

I don't want to, we have so much talk about it. And we've felt. like we needed to bring someone who had been on this podcast before, someone who understands, you know, the care that needs to be taken with a movie like this. Also, from the movie Longshot,

please welcome. Seth Rogan. Welcome. Welcome. Welcome back. Thank you. You are now, you're in the rare air. You're a three-timer here on how to this get made. Yes. I assume it's because this is a Canadian film that I was invited here.

I have special insights into it. As long as we have a Canadian on the panel, we can say fucking anything. Oh, we hear you, Jason. Just so you know. We hear you. Canada not happy about some of the things I said in that Little Italy episode. We got a lot of feedback about that episode. A lot of fired up Canadians.

There is a real Little Italy in Canada. Are you stupid? You don't understand Little Italy can exist anywhere? And they do have those New York accents. Are you crazy? Are you so American-centric that you don't even understand that you said it was both in Vancouver

and Toronto multiple times? Those are different cities, Jason. Hayden Christensen is as Italian as Roberto Benini. Am I crazy, or is Jason a straight-up snack? That one was from a different thing. Seth, not that you would know all Canadian actors, but was there anyone here that you recognized? Because there actually is.

Yeah, the woman who played old-timey, original Mary Lou was on. It's funny. Well, you see original. There's only one Mary Lou with that. But she kind of embodies the young lady. But she's always Mary Lou.

But there, I would, we could get into it, but I would argue Mary Lou is represented by two actors and two various points of the movie. But I think that, yeah, there was a Canadian show. And what's funny is I googled it because I both remembered it as being called Sweating Bullets. and I also remember it being called tropical heat.

And then I googled it, and the information I found is that for some reason it was called at various times, both, sweating bullets and tropical heat. Well, it's interesting you say that because this movie was called Hamilton High until the very end. It was like, this has made it's Hamilton High,

was not supposed to be a sequel, and we'll get into all. that in a little bit, but this is not made as a sequel film. They tank Cloverfield Lane this fucking shit. They're reconding everything. All right, well, you notice we have an extra seat here tonight, and that is because

there's so much to talk about. We needed an extra person. Also, from the movie, Longshot, please welcome, Charlie Starran. Welcome. Thank you for having me. Welcome, welcome. Welcome. I have seen hardcore porn.

with less horniness than this movie. It's a horny movie. Horny movie. I mean, this is like the question I had right off the bat. Like, when you introduce this character, Vicky, is she a good girl? Is she a bad girl? I don't even know because she's seemingly,

before she's possessed, we don't know what she's like. She seems like she does... Her parents are weird. Yes. They're a little... They're definitely... Although, by the way,

so now that we know what we know about her dad, I think it explains a lot about her mom. Because knowing her dad so willingly tongueed her at just the drop of a hat, like no questions asked. I'm engaging, I'm engaging. But he never stops. He leans in. He leans in.

So looking back on it all. And enjoys it. And savors it afterwards. Once more. In a movie full of crazy shit. And they like, they didn't seem to even think it was the craziest part of the movie. as the people who made the movie. The mother saw it.

The mother saw it, and her whole thing was, you can't go to the prom. What? Meanwhile, the dad was like, like, I just want to taste the last little bit that's left on my lips. Terrible. They're a bad and family.

But I do think that that mother was just trying to desexualize her daughter to keep that dad away from her. Listen, we all know. Canadian dads love to tongue kiss their daughters. It's a fact. That's just Canada. That's what they're doing.

Little Italy, Canada, in Toronto, Coover, you fucks. By far the most fucked up thing I have ever heard in my entire life. It's so fucked up. It's called Saskatchewan Goodnight in Canada. The movie opens up in 1957, holiday just going to be. The movie opens up in 1957 or somewhere around that time. And Mary Lou, we are introduced to Mary Lou. Mary Lou Maloney.

Mary Lou Maloney. She is... A firecracker. Yeah. I can't quite figure out because she seems to be going to the prom with this man with the receding hairline who looks like he's mid-30s in high school. Like, why not just cast Michael Ironside?

Like, why did you even go through the process? Like, yeah, it's the same guy. I felt like they cast somebody. the receding hair line so that people when it went and turned into Michael Ironside, people would be like, well, of course, but who cares? They set that up. In the intervening years, he lost his hair. He could just be a high school kid.

You don't need like a 30-year-old playing a high school kid just because he has the same receding hair line. And Mary Lou is going to, like she basically leaves her boyfriend or her boyfriend goes to get punched, and then she starts hardcore making out with this guy. Like, like, and I grab, like, when she. Try humping. Dry humping. While just drinking.

Yeah. Oh, yeah. That, like, doing shots of, like, doing shots of, like, doing shots out of a bottle of vodka while dry humping is the hardest dry humping I've ever seen. It's like, wow. That's Canadian. I was impressed. I feel like you have to, like, you get there in your 40s. Like, not in your, like, early.

At 17, you should be that hard. You have to learn or control your shit, but he's, like, fucking just going and drinking. and talking and it's like... She was amazing, though, I agree. The performances in this movie across the board were fantastic. Well, the cold open where she's in confession and is saying, you know,

actually the recurrent, because Vicky's confession is also very good. The recurring confessional scenes were all really good, but the one in the first one where Mary Lou is like giving her confession and it turns from like the confession of like, I did this and I did that, and she just goes, what does she say? I've disobeyed my parents many times.

I've taken the Lord's name in vain. Many times. I've had sinful relations with boys at my school. Many boys. Many times. My child, these are great sins. You must prepare yourself for the consequences. Father, there is one more thing.

What is it, my partner? child. And I liked it. And I liked it all. And then you reverse on her and she's written her phone number in the confession booth. I mean, I was like, this is the greatest movie we've ever done. So, I called that number and By the way, Jason, I am very seriously dating Mary Lou. That number is actually the number

of the screenwriter of the film. No. Yeah. I mean, I don't think it still works, but it was. There's one way to find out. Call that guy. Canadians never change their number. It's a thing. Everyone's still on landlines. He's like, this is going to be great.

People are going to call me and tell me how much they loved my movie? I mean, this movie, all right, so yeah, it opens with her, and the boyfriend's so jealous that he grabs an abandoned stink bomb. This looks like a giant joint. Yeah. Yeah. I don't even understand. I mean, I didn't think stink bombs were,

It looked way more destructive than it needed to be. And also, why do those guys abandon it? Like, they obviously have a plan. So they want to set up a stink bomb. That older guy. Oh, yeah, the principal. I think they were setting up. He was kind of coming in.

Oh, so you think they got spooked by that guy. I think so. But let's just, can we just for a second talk about that bathroom? Yeah. The grossest bathroom I have ever seen in my life. Oh, they didn't need a stink. No, no, no, yeah, it is fucking disgusting. There is shit everywhere.

There was? And this is the 50s. It should have been clean at this point. No, but this is 50s, Canada. Yeah. Things were bad. I don't think they had plumbing men. No, yeah.

You did the New Brunswick hover, where you had your ass three feet above the toilet and just shat towards it. You guys just had to, like, holes in the floor and just treads. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. those in Africa. Sure, exactly. Wait, so you guys noticed it, though, right?

It was dirty. When he runs out, he's, like, climbing over shit on the floor. It looked like, yeah. It looked like the bathroom had flooded already, and it was... Yeah, it was disgusting. Because this movie goes back and forth

between, like, this horror world of the high school and a real world of the high school, and that looked like the horror world of the high school before we were introduced to it, and I feel like they ran out of money, like, fuck it, we'll just shoot it in the one that we have for the horror version. Did anybody else feel like

Stranger Things ripped off the whole. There was like an upside down. All that stuff was basically the same as the upside down. It's like the same set just with like stuff like hanging around on it. It's kind of creepy or grosser. Did you guys think it looked

like the music video for total eclipse of the heart? Because I think it might be the same school. Well if that music video was filmed in Edmonton Alberta then it was the same school. It fucking looks exactly. Exactly like that music video.

That building was featured a lot. Minjas and the fencing boys. By the way, if we're talking about the bathroom this much... By the way, I would have loved it. We're not even into any part of this movie, this almost two-hour film. It was on. It was. Because at one point I looked, it was like, how did they have 40 more minutes to this?

Slow burn. That moment when the principal comes in and kind of looks at him, they shared a moment, didn't they? I felt like there was like, I don't know what was there, but I felt like the principal. Wait, him and Billy, you mean? Yeah, because they're peers. They're the same age. He's like, you got away with it. He's like, it's weird that we grew up together, and I'm the principal,

and you're still a student. That's fucked up, sorry. You're enjoying the prom, bill? And he's like, not real. And he's like, yep, these things suck. And it's like, we're both the same age. What should we do? I get a beer?

Maybe they both auditioned for the principal role. He was mad. They're like, fuck it. Just give us to him. Everybody who auditioned got a part. Yeah. The music in the movie was good. It was like expensive.

I was shocked that they had real songs. They had real music. Canadian clearance laws, very different. Stink bomb has dropped a little too closely. Stink bomb, by the way, looks like T&T and C4 or something. It's dropped a little too closely to Mary Lou. Her prom dress, obviously, we know, goes up. It's ignitable.

I mean, we all know prom. Wait a second, but he did that on purpose. Do you think he was trying to kill her? I think he was just going to stinker. I think he was trying to stink her. I read it very differently. Tell us. Tell us. Wait, you felt he was trying to kill her?

You thought he found the stink bomb who was like, I'm going to kill her with this stink bomb? I think it was supposed to be like the blood in Carrie. Yes, of course, but I think he was trying. Listen, it was a crazy thing. Whether he was trying to kill her or not, it was an insane thing to do. It was an absolutely insane thing to do.

Yeah. It was an absolutely insane. thing to do. June, he just walked in on her putting her hand up some guy's ass in the middle of the back stage. He said she'd gone farther with that kid already than they'd ever gone before. Yeah,

but let me ask, maybe I don't know enough about stink bombs, but... 90% dynamite. Yeah, what do you need to know? Well, okay, here's what I don't know about them. Do you light them? Yes. Okay, so... Wait, more questions.

Do they explode? Yes. Do they smell? This is a genuine question. What do they smell of? They're stinky. I have never seen, you know, I'm not afraid to admit this. I've never seen a stink bomb.

Whoa. Illudest. That's going to be the pull quote from this episode, June. Forget it. Wow, I guess the 1% never sees a stink bomb. Oh, I know. Oh, hello. What a luxury for you, June.

You didn't grow up in a stink bomb place. All I know is this... Me? I was surrounded by stink bombs. You know how I woke up every morning? My mom lit a stink bomb in the closet that I lived in. All I know is... My house burned down because of a stink bomb. My dad was a stink bomb driver.

The whole house stunk of stink of stink bombs. But I get it. You've never seen a stink bomb. Again, I'm... I'll put myself out there and say it. I haven't. I didn't know what it was. Save this confession.

from Mark Merrin, June. The wrong podcast to start revealing your shit. As someone who... So I heard you never seen a stink bomb. As someone who had never seen a stink bomb before, all I saw was a grown man

of an adult light up some sort of contraption and throw it at a woman. That's what I saw with my eyes. I agree. I agree. I agree. I only got it when they cut to his reaction. Yeah, yes.

And he definitely looked like a grown man who didn't mean to do that. Yeah, but. He's like, I'm 40, I should know better. I've been in this situation weirdly several times over my long life. Oh, wait a minute. I could be tried as an adult because I'm an adult. I should intercede if I can. I think he meant to throw a little.

object at her. I think what he was, I thought what he was surprised about was that it lit a flame so quickly. He wanted it to be savored a little bit. Polyester in the 50s was dangerous. Maybe that's why she was drinking so much in the beginning, so she was drinking that vodka

got on her dress, that's flammable. And she went up. She herself was flammable. She didn't eat a Molotov cocktail. A lot of clothing in the 50 had kerosene threads sewn into it. Well, the clothing is the villain in the movie

for a large portion. There is a killer. There is a cape that is a killer and better capework than Dr. Strange, I think. Also, gloves, or the gloves are getting a lot of work out? I kept writing, the villain is clothing. Yeah.

But by the way. And the main base of the villains are a trunk. Yes. What was the trunk about? I don't know. That's where I wanted the exposition. It's where the evil.

clothing kept coming. Well, okay, first of all, Billy, okay, so Billy kills Mary Sue. Mary Lou. Sorry, Billy kills Mary Lou. Jason. Okay, sorry. Really? That's it. About this movie. Get it right.

I guess I'm off the podcast? You're out of here, kid. So Billy, kill, Billy. Show some respect. Billy murders her in front of everybody. Yes, that's what I saw. And all that happens is, everybody kind of turns around.

Nobody tries to throw a blanket on her. Nobody does anything, right? It's a slow death as well. It is brutal. It's well directed. That boy who did that is then cut to the principal of the school. How is he not in prison? That was his penance.

You can't leave. Now you just got to go to the... How is he not, like, in jail? How is he not arrested immediately after this? What are the Canadian laws vis-a-vis murder? In Canada, if a... stink bomb explodes a lady, it's fine. By the way, that stunt was the longest running

fire stunt ever performed. It was amazing. They do nothing. These people don't know CPR. It does look like a young Michael Ironside. They do nothing. The same thing happens when Vicki gets shot. She stands there for 20 minutes. Her boyfriend is, her.

Her real boyfriend is like, no. And that guy is just hitting a step. He's doing nothing. He's mourning her death before she's dead. He's like, You have a chance to stop this. By the way, there's nobody even tries. No one cared at all. No, if they're all having like history on a...

Like, again, she has to die for the story. Yeah, that's what it is. But they don't even try. She wasn't nice. The way she waved was very dynamic, I found. So I guess my question is, is the trunk telling us this story? Because it's like an opening narration. The trunk's like, and that's my story.

And that is. It is. Yeah, it's like a story book. You go West. I kept writing, what is the chest or trunk? I kept saying, what is this thing? And also, why are the items that were on the murdered girl's body in there? In the trunk in the high school?

They should be in an evidence locker for an unsolved murder, apparently, because the perpetrator of it is the high school principal. But did she wear the cape when she was burning? No, no, she never gets it on, that's true, yeah. So it's just a dress, right? But if she's not wearing the cape. How is the cape possessed? No, she's not wearing this. She wasn't wearing.

But it's not part of her. She's just... Oh, that's a good point. Yeah. It's a crucial detail that the two things that she never wore or touched are the things that act out as the... Because the thing is, Paul.

Okay. I have a theory too. Go. Okay, she was trying... She was waiting to get those on her body. She already won it. Yes. Which makes it hurt. Yes.

Oh. So she has... come back to reclaim those items. Got it. The tiara, the gloves, the robe. Yes, so they are her in a sense. Yeah, so once you win it, it's like a wand in Harry Potter. If you duel someone and you get their wand away from them, that wand will respond to you now.

So I get it. That's what we're going to go with going forward. Now, so the guy who starts mourning her very quickly and moving beyond her death. Yeah, the boyfriend. He goes through all the stages of grief. Before she was done burning. Oh, still burning. Still burning.

Guess it's time to start over. Oh, my girlfriend. No, no, no. Does he turn to God because that was the... Does he turn to God because he knows that guy killed... He knows Billy killed her? I believe so. I had that question too, June.

I did not get that. For the longest time I was like, who was this fucking guy? and why are they in cahoots? They seem to care deeply for one another. He is, I slowly thought, was the other guy. But it makes no sense that they would like each other. But before he's hitting the step, who was he in the movie?

He was the guy she was having sex with. Oh, fuck me. Yeah. So it's like she's one of these guys' girlfriend. She fucks the other guy. I did not get that. whose girlfriend she is explodes her. They form some friendship bond.

By the way, they get to be friends? I mean, they get to be friends. We murdered someone together. We're, I guess, barred now. No, no, no, no. Do not put the boyfriend in. The boyfriend did nothing wrong. Not the boyfriend, not the stink bomb guy.

The priest. The priest guy. He did nothing wrong. He was just waiting for her to get the thing. He was... He didn't put her out. Yeah, he didn't put her out. He could have interceded. He literally runs over to her with his coat jacket and then...

Coat jacket? His blazer His blazer coat jacket His blazer coat jacket His blazer coat jacket And then takes a moment Looks at her He's got his pants

Are you like the 40s? Oh scram you guys Just scram But wait Now here's the question that I had And I think maybe I just wanted to get a little more backstory About Michael Ironside Because clearly he got married

He had a kid What happened to that wife And did he ever really love her? He killed her as well Maybe that's prom one. Has anyone here seen prom one? Well, you know what? It's interesting that you bring that up.

These movies are, this is a two of four. Yeah, they're four prom night films. The only, does anyone want to take a guess? There's one thing that connects all of them. The chest, the trunk. No, no, no, you guys don't guess. They'll let them guess because you may know the answer. Anyone else? Anyone else?

Any other to guess? A prom? A prom? I know, that is. I'm just guessing. I'm just guessing. I'm just guessing. Is it that school?

Okay, interesting. These are all good things. It's Brock Simpson, the guy who does the whole potato radio thing. What? Yeah. It was a guacamole radio. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Giacomole radio.

What? Yes. Nature's perfect vegetable, rich in AM, FM, and carbohydrates. Gosh, please. I'm sure Einstein didn't take this much time. Mr. Craven, this moment will be inserted into the anils of scientific history. and I think we all know how painful that can be. Is he the moose of this series?

The same character, so when he gets fried by the computer, he, I guess, does not die. I have not seen all four. And he comes back. So he's the only thing of connect with him. In all four? He's in all four.

That's the only thing that connects these four films. That's the stupidest answer possible. Josh, good old Josh. Or is it? Guacamole radio. I wrote down guacamole radio when he said it. I was like, why are they giving this guy

so much air time? A lot of air time. So in every movie is he looking for a date for the prom? Can I ask you? I imagine he's getting older and that actually makes it more upset. Yeah, that's what I was going to ask.

Paul, what is the span of time over which these four movies exist? Like, how old is he at the end of this series? I will tell you right now. If you don't have it handy, that's okay. But I'm picturing him being like a 37-year-old being like, guys, we got to get out of here. This is crazy. This prom's out of control.

And he still has like all the burns from the computer. Like having his Einstein poster. His eyes at me and you, Einstein. He tries to hack into prom. Didn't anyone understand how they were tallying the prom votes? Through fallatio? Like if you're a prom attendee, how do you vote on a computer? I assume like how you voted on America's Funniest Home Videos.

Gotcha. By the way, that computer was the best. best computer work. Normally, like, in these movies, it's like, an advanced computer. That looked like print shop, 1986. Like, there was nothing advanced about anything there. No, it just had, like, an Apple computer.

Yeah, oh, yeah. I like that they didn't go all out on that. And then she tries to kill... She kills her with a computer. What the fuck was her power? What could and could not she do? But she's not even in the same room. She's like, she's like that guy in that movie, like, shocker.

Like, she can just go through outlets and find any outlet in town. She can do anything. The rules are not set up very well. I felt really, my favorite character whose name, there's so much in here. My favorite character was the woman with Robert Smith from the Cura's hair.

That's what I wrote. She's my favorite character. The girl who was making the giant hand. Yes, yes. By the way, that giant hand then later comes out of Vicki's chest. But my whole question was, why is it this movie about her?

Yes, I said this same. Such a better movie. She's pregnant. She's, yeah, go ahead. The scene in the bathroom. Yeah. I wanted to give her my academy. It was amazing.

Do it. Do it. I'm actually not being funny. I very fairly looked at it and said, this is really good work. It was good. This is really, I'm not, I'm actually, like, it is a good fucking moment.

It was a beautiful. It was a one, it was a beautiful shot that slowly crept in. Oh, yeah. And then when that lady dies, it was crazy because they almost cut her head off with this fucking thing. This is the craziest. And then they don't, and they hang her. Not only that, it looks like they're going to chop her head off with a paper cutter. Yeah.

They don't. The cloak goes up and hangs her. Then throws her out a window. What? What are you talking about? It's like... You just succeeded in... strangling her with a cloak.

Why throw her out the window? No, the best part then is the next cut is them talking about how she killed herself. She killed herself. She hung herself, then threw herself out of a window. So Mary Lou is back for vengeance

in Vicky's body, which is interesting because Vicky is, I think they're trying to paint Vicky as being like a very, like, pure, virginal character and then Mary Lou gets in her. I like the voice you put on when you say pure virginal character. It's part of my repertoire. Is that your Vicki voice?

What is it like? Hi, guys. I'm Vicki. My parents and I eat oatmeal in the morning. Please, please Photoshop Paul's head onto naked Vicki's body. Already did it, bro. Last night. Been masturbating to it all day, man.

Love it. The meat slushy that she creates out of that locker. I mean, it's such a weird thing because she's seducing her best friend. And I think actually her best friend played it pretty well. Yeah. That scene. Again, all the actors doing a good job.

Amazing. They're all incredible. Like she comes in and she's like, okay, yeah, I'm sorry we fought. And then, like, you know, Vicki's like, let's make out. And she's like, wait, what's going on? No, what's so much weirder is that Vicki isn't exactly. like, let's make out. She just starts, first she kisses her nose, then she kisses her forehead,

then she kisses her cheek. She's doing all this, like, around the face kissing. And it's all, like, pecks. It's, like, very friendly. I also don't like. It's fun. It's, like, it's very fun. Yeah.

I'm not interested. And then the friend gets fucking terrified. The friend acts like she's going to kill her. Yeah, and all she did was, like, kiss her nose, and her forehead and her chin. And then she giggled, and she tickled her. And she went, Fuck this shit.

out of here. Well, keep it. I was like, what is the motivation? I feel like, I'm sure. One or two of those are okay, but five in a row,

you're like, no, this is wrong. Guys, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute. You guys, they're in a shower together. There are no amount of light kisses in a shower that is normal. You're acting as if like,

I don't get it. If my friend wants to give me four to five light kisses around my face, while we're both naked in a shower, what's the big? I think it's different for girls. Okay. By the way, perhaps.

When June and I are in the shower, three to four kisses is the norm. It's different. It might be like, look, that's too much, but it is not, fuck me, I'm gonna die. Right, but she does die. She does. She gets, her instincts are right.

She does run, like, she runs aggressively away. She's not like, hey, stop. She cuts out that part of it. of it. She's like, hey, what the fuck is going on? She goes, oh, fuck! She's out. I mean, she is fucking terrified. By the way, that scene was not supposed to be naked. That was the actress's choice.

She's supposed to be in a towel. That was a bold choice. That shit went from zero to a thousand real fast. I was like, oh, this movie's like a little bit horny, and it's kind of sexual. They're like, this motherfucker's naked. They're a whole set piece. That is the producers afterwards,

realizing they might have gone a little too aggressive on that and then they told that story. She wanted it. She wanted it. She was really comfortable with it. She wanted to be naked for the whole movie. It was so fucked up. That was like shocking. And also the whole time I was like, this girl kind of looks like my sister.

And then I don't know. What? Why would you tell us that? Why would you tell us that? You know what? Keep that to yourself. It's a bad. That's private. That's private for you. It doesn't make it less shameful if you shamed.

I'm just, you know, I'm a fan of your podcast and I found. He's bringing the good stories. How exactly did she die? Oh, but the meat sauce sheet? Yeah. Oh, does she get squished? She's got squished. Locker squashed?

The lockers go like, squish. And the door cracks open and like a bunch of like a human smoothie pours out of it. I didn't understand. So I think what happened. What are her powers? Oh, well, that's just mysterious. Her powers are all the powers. But I think both lockers, what I imagined to happen in there,

was that both lockers, lockers punctured her head. And then all of her organs came out through the slots. You got deep into that. I would like... That's what I picture. I would like there to be just like you to record tracks for horror movies that is just a description of what you think is happening?

That's what I saw. So now she's using some sort of magical power. The thing that I thought that was a real missed opportunity in this movie was that it was not a 1950s style prom. I thought that could be like a fun throwback prom. Instead they

made it like a neon, a dangerous neon prom. Because people get like bolted with the neon at the end. A girl gets killed by neon. No, it's, it is total eclipse of the heart. Yeah. I wonder what was first. This movie

or that video. Can we Google that? I'm going to Google it up right now. It is hard to understand somebody's shit. It's hard to understand what Mary Lou wants. Because is she coming back to just regain her crown? And why does she come back now all these years later? Is it just because someone opened that trunk? And if she just...

No one opened the trunk. The trunk just opened. Bonnie Tyler was first with Total Eclipse of the Heart. There you. So was she just... My money was on her. Yeah. Was she just waiting for someone to go down there all these years? To the prop closet? But then, all she won't. is a kiss. Jal she wants is a kiss

from the boyfriend. At one point I wrote, is this a Christian movie? Oh, interesting. Because I started to suspect that I was like, I feel like Christian values are the thing

that are somehow connecting all this shit. Because there's the priest. At one point, he's doing an exorcism to nobody. Oh, yeah. Yes, I did, I have the same room. He never says her name. He does all of the stuff from the exorcist

just alone. Just alone in a room. But I thought he would want, thought that the movie could be better if he wanted her back. He's like, that's my love. I want her back and he would like, but weirdly she wants to be back with the principal or she kisses him.

Does she though? Is that clear? Who's the protagonist of the movie? Mary Lou. The trunk. Here's the thing. Early on, the priest says she's going to come back and wants to possess your body. That's what she says to Billy.

Oh, I forgot that. She wants to possess Billy's body, but I still don't understand why. And why didn't she do that right away? Like, why go through the... Because Billy took her life and so she's like, I got to take his life? But she's, I would say she seems to want...

I don't know why she's chosen Vicky exactly unless it is to get, again, to be prom queen. If that is the... But she's not popular. Then why not pick the girl who's the favorite to be prom queen. Black and red dress? Yeah, exactly.

The prom queen that was very popular, was very intimidated. Blow job girl. Yes. Blowjob girl. But Blowjob girl was very intimidated. There is BJG. There's so many bad movies.

I love that Steven Spielberg movie. A guy is at a keyboard getting a blowjob. And it's so clearly the nerd who wrote the movie fetishizing their own shit and he's like, and he's writing and getting his dick sucked. Yeah.

This is what happens to guys who write. Nothing sexier than a fucking nerd in a keyboard. Just fucking type it away. Finally. The grossest thing about that scene Somebody wants me. The final scene afterwards

where she comes back to her boyfriend is like, ooh, you're using those mints, your breath is amazing. I didn't get that. Oh, oh, because her breast... Oh, because she's binocca. She used bonocca before she blew the guy. Because that's what we do.

That's a Canadian blowjob. We, yes. We mint up afterwards. You mint up, yeah. My favorite moment is... It's called a Manitoba menthol. Oh, my gosh. One of my favorite scenes in this movie

is when Vicky is in bed and she's looking, or in her room, I think maybe, and she's looking at the picture she's drawn. And then she looks away and she looks back and it's a picture of Mary Lou now and it's all different, like it's all a different picture. And it's meant to be this like,

whoa moment. And I was like, this is corny as fuck, but I still am obsessed with what these people are doing. Everything they're doing is absolutely nuts. The rocking horse was the craziest thing. in the entire. The rocking horse's tongue, the rocking horse's eyes.

That whole sequence was erotic. Yet again, everybody is so horny in this movie. It's a horny rocking horse. I mean, that horse, that horse is frightening. What's scary. Human eyes. Human-looking fucking eyes. Demon eyes. I feel like

some collector owns that rocking horse still. But that tongue, and then does she caress the tongue at one point? Yes. She definitely gives the tongue a hand job. Tongue. But here's the other thing. I was like, it's just slightly off

because a rocking horse that's like possessed can't come get you. It can only just like kind of just rock back and forth in the corner of the room. It's like, unless you go to it, you're pretty safe.

I also thought it was not consistent with the character of the mother that she refuses to buy her a new prom dress. Yet she bought. her a ginormous carous carousel horse. She knew it was evil. That must be more expensive

than a prom dress. Oh, that rocking horse is, I would say, conservatively $3,600. It was a part of the... The rocking horse was a part of the $100,000 reshoots because when they were shooting the movie, I mentioned it earlier, it was called the haunting of Hamilton High.

Hamilton is a city in Ontario. Oh, okay. And then the original... producer of Prom Night said, well, we got to buy this movie and make it a sequel to Prom Night. They reshot over half of it, changed the title to make it a sequel. And they spent $100,000 and added that scene in particular. And the writer of the movie did a lot of the directing, and he called West Craven. And he said, what's the best thing to shoot a teen horror movie? And West Craven said, give him a scare, give him a hard on, and send them home.

Jesus. And so, done and done. I was already home, but it was. The reshoot scenes were the locker room scene, the rocking horse scene, and the chalkboard whirlpool. By the way, that was great. That was a great-looking effect. Like a great practical effect.

I love that. The best scene was when he knocked his son out with his shoe. Oh, my gosh. So funny. It was a capizio jazz shoe. Yeah, how hard did you have to hit? The sound literally was just, and he went flying

and then when he came back into the movie he was so bruised but the sound effect was literally like that guy could sit in the head twice in a row too he's like hey what's a blow by the way there's a scene where the teacher right before the dude was it the dude or was it the teacher

who burns his genitals on the expert? Oh is the teacher? The science teacher who like palms her butt in Yeah, but also walks just behind this kid and hits him so hard on the back of the head, and they put the bigger sound effect on that, and he's fine, and the other kid is almost dead. Shoe Guy. Michael Aronside did it with, like, as though that's a thing he does.

It's like, time to do the old shoe to the hip-adoomber. Just sit down. Don't worry, Cog. Sorry, son. Why do you keep fighting yourself in these positions, man? I've done that three times this month. By the way, this poor kid has been multiply concussed in the course of the movie

every time. Craig or Craig? Keith? I don't know. I don't know. I don't remember names. I don't even know who Billy is. You keep talking about it. Craig. I don't even know who Craig. Becky, the whole movie. I have another question. Did anybody notice the ginormous jugs of milk?

Oh, I did. I wrote this down, yeah. What the fuck is that? How much milk are they drinking? Three people, and it's just massive jugs. Wait, I didn't notice the jugs. When they're eating their oatmeal in the beginning, there's a giant, like a giant. That might be a Canadian thing.

All jokes aside, it was paid for by the Dairy Board of Canada. They weren't bags of milk, which we do also use in Canada. We don't mind the meat slushies, as long as we can get a container of milk in there. Let's be very happy. All right, well then let's talk about it. the end, the end,

Mary Lou is literally inside of Vicky. Spoiler alert, like, did not expect that. I thought possession was what we were going for, but no, no. There's a person in there. There's another person in there wearing her dress from prom. There's a clothed person in there. Vicky is at prom in her prom dress,

and Mary Lou exits her body in a prom dress. But comes out in like a larva state. Like she evolves. into 1950s. It's so weird. This movie makes so many fucking weird choices. Well, it does everything. Like, it has, like, telekinesis,

and it has, like, electro-shocker shit. It has a monster fucking come out of someone. There are times when, like, there are other hands trying to attack Vicky. Like, when she's on the bed, there's hands all over her. Whose hands are those? Mary Lou. Because at one point, I was like, are those the horse's hands?

What was the scare there that she's being tucked into tight? Don't know. Is Mary Lou the horse? I think so. Because Mary Lou's talking to the horse. And why is Mary Lou writing backwards on the chalkboard? Because it's forward where she is. Yeah, forwards where she is.

That's weird though. I know, but that's weird. It's a weird joke. No, no, that's what I'm saying when I mean, like there is no exposition. There are no explainers. They just do everything and nobody ever says what the rules are. This movie just has it every way. There's also, one of my favorite parts is when the priest goes to Billy's house, he brings a giant book to read, like, some rules of the church.

What book is that? Probably the Bible? No, that's not the Bible. That is not a Bible. I'm going to just throw this out there. The religious book the priest brought, maybe the Bible? It's this wide. Maybe Canadian Bible?

It's the Canadian Bible. The St. Gord Bible edition. My, my... He's not. He's also wearing these weird shirts, these weird shirts. It's like, it's almost like black and has like this little white collar.

Like, what style is that? For the priest? I couldn't figure out. Okay. So, Vicky is named Prom Queen, right? She comes up. Now, she is fully Mary Lou at this point. Mary Lou is taken over her body.

Okay. So she's being crowned prom queen. Michael Ironsides back up on the catwalk. This time he's got a gun. He's like, back to the old catwalk. Doing that thing I do where I murder girls on prom night from this catwalk. Well, the first time it was a villainous thing,

and now I think I'm the hero unclear. How do I keep fighting myself on this catwalk? Boom, boom, boom. He shoots Vicky. Vicky goes down, okay? She's shot in the chest. She is on the ground. Mary Lou exits her body,

like chest burst her, like, alien style. Okay, the whole rest of the movie unfolds. Michael Ironside's kid is by the trunk again. The trunk is like vibrating. He opens up the trunk and Vicki emerges soaking wet. From where? The chalkboard world. From where?

The chalkboard world. It looked to me like she came from a vagina. Yes, that's what I wrote. Literally what I wrote. I also was like when was she ever. When was she ever wearing this top? When did this? It was the dirty breath.

When was she ever wearing this top? When did this? come in like well we were waiting to see that green prom dress which we never saw yeah maybe there's shops in that weird stranger things were i don't know what it was and then i wrote vaginal goop question mark and then you're not a doctor then your wife must be very happy we have no kids i yeah yeah i just want to just take vaginal goop as a thing that's a real thing we can get behind when she comes out in the weird shirt that we haven't seen like she she she I have a whole other thing that I want to bring up.

Did you guys notice that she records, re-records the outgoing message before she leaves to go murder. I do have it if you want to hear it. Yeah. Hi, Mary Lou speaking. Sorry I can't come to the phone right now, but I'm busy at the prom. Places to go, people to kill. Don't bother leaving a message. Vicky doesn't live here anymore.

She is fucking thorough. She's so thorough that she even goes to the DMV to get a license plate made for the call. She is a custom playmate, yeah. And that takes like six weeks to order. You're like conservatively. She's playing a long game. She was doing a lot of work from the Trump. I was like, I didn't think of that.

That's a lot of foresight. Yeah, she had to wait in live. She had to go and fill out some paperwork game. The best thing about the license plate is it's just not Mary Lou. It's also referencing the movie. Mary Lou two. Not, I guess it's the sequel of her. So maybe I guess it was.

Isn't it prom night two? Yeah. It's not Mary Lou. Oh, this is the next one. But the guy is Mary Lou too. So I guess maybe it'll be really funny. Like, hey, does someone leave their lights on? Mary Lou too?

Mary Lou? Oh, that's me. Yeah, that's me. So wait, did anybody think that when she did show up with the shirt that we've never seen? And now we're, you know, the boyfriend is wondering, is this Mary Lou or is this Vicky? And we're, as an audience, we're asking the same question, right? What is the test? How many sugars?

Do you take in your coffee? That stuff will kill you. That's the test. I did not know that. Was that said? I literally was in the diner. That was it three hours ago? It was a really long time.

14 pregnant woman murders ago. I did remember. The waiter in that diner scene, I don't know if anybody remembers. But he had sunglasses on and he also like the two of them are sitting this way. And instead of like going around to drop off like the stuff. at the table, he slides in and drops off a coffee from the side in the strangest of ways. So I did remember that scene and I remember saying that. Maybe they were like, we need somebody to remember the scene.

Waiter, do something so stupid that no one will not forget this moment. Oh, my goodness. So let's go out to the audience. Let's see what kind of questions that you guys have. Anything that we might have not talked about already or things that, you know, you have questions about. And, you know, because the 50s were so, like, shunned in this film, like, when someone said swell, they were, like, sent packing.

I want you to ask your question and present yourself in the most 50s way imaginable. So pretend you're in the 50s, say your name and your question in the most 50 ways possible. Here we go. Golly gee, Wheel occurs. When the dad was waking up from a dream, was Mary Lou raping the son in a car? Yeah. What was that? All right.

My wife turned to me and said, this looked like Titanic in that moment. I do have the scene. We could watch it. It is up there. We can kind of examine it if you want to see here. It's not ignored them. Don't you not use this thing?

Oh, are you trying into a bad trick? What's wrong with you? Don't you want to fuck me? Him in the ass for sure. That part where she's on top when she goes crazy, I was like, whoa, this is crazy. I would like it. If you are, you know, just here with someone

that you're gonna have sex with later, later without telling your partner that you're going to, just like get up and scream in their face, don't you wanna fuck me? Don't you want to fuck me? Scream it as loud as you can. Right in their stupid face. We're gonna see whose relationship works out.

That's amazing. Again, this actress is, Amazing. I mean, I can believe. Again, Shirley, send her your Oscar. Yes.

Do you guys remember when she's in the mirror reflected and it's like when Vicky realizes for the first time and she puts on lipstick? Yeah. And then she does something else that's like an obvious.

She does her hair. Which is an obvious choice. And then she just kind of looks and she's gorgeous looking in this mirror and out of nowhere she just goes, and she blows her bangs up? Yeah. I lost my shit.

I said, what an interesting choice. Not a choice I would have ever made. And she commits. Yes, she's great. I mean, again, all these actors are doing good stuff, directed well. But I do wonder also in that scene, just to go back to that scene for one moment, he is dreaming about his son getting pegged by Mary Lou. Yes.

But that means his brain bleed? Yes. Like, he starts bleeding out of his own head. So the thought of begging is like, Oh, God. Like, that's the most painful thing. And it's bleeding from the top, which means that his brain is coming out of its skull from the top.

So upsetting. All right. Sir, most 50s way ever. Your name, your name. My name is Michael Michael. And so I'm kind of going off of Seth's thing about the Christian. What? About the Christian.

Christian theme, but more of an anti-drinking alcohol on prom night theme. So we have at the beginning, obviously, Mary Lou dies after drinking excessively. Then we have the scene with the guy who's tabulating the votes for prom night. And when he's asked what he's going to do on prom, he says, I'm going to get drunk. I'm going to throw up in the can. It's my duty. I'm a teenager. And then also at the end, the popular girl when she's dancing,

She is asked, what are you doing? It seems like you're drunk. And he's like, this guy talks in this weird Eastern European accent. He's like, I drink. I get drunk. So what's the problem? I literally thought that was Tommy Wazzo's first part when that happened. That's kind of the accent I was using right now.

Sir, you got a Coke freestyle hat and sunglasses. What? From Coke freestyle. Why don't we give it away? Coca-Cola freestyle, the coolest Coca-Cola machine I've ever seen. What? What are we doing?

Who is that? Are we supporting Coca-Cola freestyle? Just the cool-ass machine with 100 different flavors of soda. They're not a sponsor of the show. Paul, what's happening right now? I got literally sent four boxes of this at my house. I had no idea what to do with it.

So we're just giving it away? Because I tweeted, I just said... No, I tweeted I like this Coca-Cola freestyle machine. He's like, we're coming for you. And then I got a four boxes. And my kids are like, what are in the boxes? I'm like, you're not going to like it. And now my kids wear Coca-Cola freestyle sunglasses.

Sunglasses? You know the lenses in those are not UV protected. Oh, I got to stop them from staring at the sun. You're letting your children wear cheap flimsy coke glasses. Hey, man, they see all the colors of the Coke rainbow with these babies on. What? Ma'am, your name, your question, and the 50s way. What's the haps, Daddyo?

My name's Carla. I just wanted to know why Vicky's mother was... She hated her boyfriend so much. He seemed like a lovely guy. Yeah. She hates a lot of things, that mother. Yeah, like, what was her problem? Well, because it seemed like they both didn't want to go to college,

but they seemed like the most milk-toast people of all time. So, Paul, that family's fucked up. She knew. I did think, though, that, like, the mother was, I mean, so crazy, strict and whatever, but she seemed to be acting as if she had Mary Lou for a daughter versus Vicki, who seems to be completely a normal high school kid who seems to be doing fine, whatever, is, like,

other than having a boyfriend who rides a motorcycle, but who is otherwise a lovely kid. Seemed like a nerd to me? She just seemed like really hard on it. But then that's what, that's to get to the point of like, that's what made, I felt like, and I'm, I feel like, and I feel terrible. I don't know the woman's name

who played Vicky. She gets to be both Vicky and Mary Lou and is amazing in both capacities. Jason, you'll be very excited to know. There's a baby here tonight, a baby. What is this baby? What flavor?

She's gorgeous. By the way, this baby's doing great. There's been a baby here the whole time? Yes. I had to take her out at the beginning, but she's fine now. My name's Amy. I hope no one slips me

in aspirin in my Coke at the dance. and I was wondering if you have any information on the cinematographer there was a lot of up-the-nose shots that I had never seen before interesting I don't I don't I wish I looked up the DP because I actually thought the movie looked not bad

honestly he did not shoot a lot of other movies unfortunately I have hired him to do my next film I was a fan he's Canadian got a support Got to support. You have a question here. See you later, Alligator.

I was waiting for that. My name's Colleen. And I just have, well, two things. One is I just wanted to talk about the really empowering posture stances that we saw in the Terminator scene. And with Mary Lou and the way she stood, I felt like I owe my power when I watched that. Yeah, and I feel like it changed me. I love it. Did you guys feel that too?

I did. I definitely did. There's this shot where he's up in the catwalk up there with his gun looking to shoot her. And Vicky slash Mary Lou is standing with her legs just totally like power V position. It's so unsettling and strange, but also very powerful. I mean, is this a feminist tale? And there was, I will say, there was something about Vicky being naked in the locker scene

that felt more like she was threatening. She was much more scary in that whole sequence. Because it wasn't like, ooh, like this is shot to sexualize her necessarily. It was more like, oh my God, she's naked. Yeah. And she's... It felt like, sorry, go ahead. No, go ahead.

It felt like to me like that's... It really did feel like that's her possession. Because I don't think we would see this person naked otherwise in this movie. It only is because she's possessed by this murderous person. And to your point, I think that's why... why her friend was so scared because it was so out of character for her to be naked like that. Yeah. I mean, I don't think she's shown her book.

By the way, there will be a kissing booth outside of Largo on the way out. Just sweet little pecks. But you do have to be completely wet and naked for the, yeah. Obviously, we had an opinion about this movie, but there are people out there with a different opinion. It is now time for second opinions. I'm going to use you as a prop. That's your opinion about this film. Wait, we need more.

Don't you check on some online troll? Mary Lou Problem Night 2. These are Second Opinions Colt from Amazon.com. These are all five-star reviews. This one's written by K.R. After seeing this OG when it came out in the 80s, I'm watching it again in 2017 and totally seeing Mary Lou as a feminist.

But she's the bad guy? Too bad. am I FU? Nope. I saw her as an anti-hero back in the day without understanding why I liked her. Now I get Mary Lou's FU purpose, but with more dimension. Five stars.

I don't know why the IMFU. I read that a couple of times at home and I couldn't get it. I'm fucked up? Am I fucked up for a scene? Yeah. All right, no, no, no. Brandon L. Harlow gave this five stars and just says, this film is so 80 and so great.

I love it when the blonde girl seduces her dad and then throws her mom through the front door. Please stop. Please stop. Or when she uses the lockers to squish that other girl, five stars. Title, catchy tunes.

And then... People are fucked up. People are the worst. Oh, the Amazon reviews. And this one is just from an Amazon customer. It's entitled Five Stars and their view is one word,

thick. Five stars. That was written in 20. 2018. Mary Lou, Prom Night 2 came out in 1987. The taglines were, an old flame returns. 1957 Mary Lou Maloney went up in flames. Now she's back and she's burning mad. And then the budget was $2 million. The opening weekend was $900,000. And it made $2.6 million. It was, it made his money back. The top three films of 1987, three men in a debate. Fatal Attraction and Beverly Hills Cop 2. This movie came in 137th out of all the movies in 1987. It was number three in Canada, though.

However, it beat the Garbage Pail Kids, the movie that we did on this podcast, and it was beaten by the Running Man Jaws for the Revenge, Masters of the Universe, and over the top. And, yeah, that is that, and the director put himself, or the writer put himself in the movie as a small cameo. he's the one who says to the evil girl in the movie. He's like, what do you think about that, Victoria?

Do you remember that classic scene? Well, that was it. Wait, do it one more time? What do you think about that, Victoria? No, wait. Guys, I'm giving you all my characters today. Now, do you think about that, Victoria. Well, well, well, that was any clothing thoughts on...

Clothing thoughts? I mean, I've got clothing thoughts throughout the pants. The movie. Pants. The clothing is dope. Yeah. It is great. This one, I really loved all of the period stuff, both 50s and what was then present.

Yeah. The 80s era stuff was great. Except for the brooches. I didn't like that. Such blousey tops, such so many pleats in all the pants. But the Robert Smith looking girl is a, she's like the Annie Potts of this movie. She is my hero. I love her.

A. A. Averyle pointed out that she also kind of shares a similarity with. Joan Kusack from Working Girl. I thought it was Joan Kuzak for a second. And I was like, it doesn't add up age-wise. But she had a Joan Kuzak 5. The hair is amazing. It's amazing. That's what my hair looked like in high school.

Not just the girls, but the men have... Very Fokkosikil-Z kind of... There is a teacher with a tight co-mover, but a thick bob at the... I didn't understand it. This was thin and covering baldness, but this was thick. And, like, blowdry.

It's impressive. Oh, yeah. Let's go down the line. Jason, would you recommend this minute? A million percent, yes. Yes. This is a home fucking run movie. And honest to God, we have barely, like, touched it.

There's so much going on in this nonsense that I genuinely believe if you like this podcast, you will enjoy watching this movie. Yes. I agree. It's so much fun. I mean, and we haven't, here's the things we haven't discussed. The difference between the treasure chest and the grave site. Oh, yeah.

I don't know what that is and who's where and what spirits are where and what articles of clothing are where. That's all a mystery. But it's so much fun. 100% yes. And Seth? Yeah, I agree. It, like, it started a little bit slow.

I mean, it starts great, and then it's kind of a long, movie and there was a point I was like oh it's kind of boring and then I was just like oh no this just went crazy like and then it stays crazy for the rest of it basically from the minute she arrives in the locker room naked through the end is like wild batch it crazy yes it's wild

I wrote just the word naked and huge letters I was just like this is so naked like I didn't expect and so naked for so long so long so naked she's so young very altman asked yeah it was like it was truly shocking and unpredictable, which is not

easy to find. And that's the thing up until that point, the movie is very predictable. It's confusing at times, but it's not very shocking. It's very predictable. And then at that point, you're like, whoa, what? How does this work? This is crazy. Yeah, I agree. Like, in the beginning, I was like, oh, I hope we have enough to talk about for this. And I was like, oh, we've got plenty.

Charlize, what do you think? Oh, yes, for sure. Yeah, I agree. I mean, I think this is all across the board. This is a great movie to watch. It was hard to find in the beginning, but you can find it on all the places, especially YouTube. What was the ridiculous streaming service

that you sent me a like... Tubby? It was called Tubby? Did you have to watch the commercials? We were having... I watched commercials. Is that Jeffrey Katsenberg's new app? That's Quimmy! That's Quimmy! I sent that out and I have a sneaking suspicion

that there's someone who likes this podcast who works at Amazon because I sent that out and then we announced this movie and all of a sudden it was on Amazon Prime. Oh, that's funny. Yeah, that's how I watch. Yeah, I was a little bit. I was nervous that we couldn't find it for a bit and then we found it.

I was psyched to be introduced to tubby. Let's talk about this movie. Long shot, I would say four of us are in it, but you guys are primarily in it. Wow. Tough look for my guy. Most of the audience is in it too. The baby.

The baby is in it. You guys are all in this movie? Yes. Wow. Okay, wow. Okay, cool. Wow. And it was just nice to see so many familiar faces there.

Yes. Just like so many of our friends pop up. Some of their friends are in it. Kurt Braunholers in it. Oh, Kee. Oh, God. It was just fun. Randall.

Yeah, Randall Park is in it? Yeah, Randall Park is in it? Oh, God. Claudia Dardy. She's in it. She's in it. Oh, C-O-D? Yeah.

Oh, God. They're all in it? Yeah. They're all in the movie? It's a really funny movie. No, it's okay. Are you still casting? Yeah, we're still casting.

Are you still casting? Are there parts? Yeah, that's how it works. Yeah. All right, all right. I'd love to give you my headshot. Put yourself on tape. We'll talk about it.

I'd love to put myself on tape. Pick your favorite scene. Go see the movie. Pick your favorite scene. Then send it to us. Okay. I will transcribe one of the scenes. And the baby will replace you with it.

Great. Great. Please don't replace my little scene. What should we tell everybody about it? I've seen the movie and it's so incredibly funny and romantic and great. I feel like it's just a really great movie and you guys are all great in it.

Thank you so much. Yeah. Yeah. You kind of have to say that. But it is. But it actually is good, so that's nice. Yeah, it's great. Amazing cast.

Just like everyone. You know what I like about it, June? Can I just say what I like about it? It doesn't, like, try to cater to, like, an audience, like a John Wick 3, like, where they're just trying, they're putting people in it just to get, you know, just to get asses in the seats. They're just like, yeah, they're just like, they're not like, they're not going to dumb down the casting. Which reminds me of something. Very quickly, you'll be able to not buy a ticket to Longshot, but buy a ticket to John Wick 3. The same studio.

Money all goes the same place. Long shot out right now in theaters. It's funny. It's romantic. It's great. It's starring all these people on stage, except for Jason. I'm starting to feel bad about this.

But you can see Jason and John Wick 3. He's got his own poster for fuck's sake. Oh, I'm not. Okay. I feel better now. I don't feel bad. Just like I missed out on an opportunity to shoot with friends. Like a funny, cool movie.

No, no. Don't feel badly. You and Hallie Berry are really good friends. HB? Yeah. Oh, yeah. I thank you all for coming out tonight. Thank you, everybody.
