Seeking Derangements - SD 430 - Milks Madsmen

Episode Date: August 20, 2025

Hello Seekers, Still hungover Ben here, on today's ep Jacques, Hesse and I take a look as Jacques freshly minted Letterboxed account, take a look at the 80+ entries he's made in the past 24 hours, and give a review of Eddington. Plus we compare our various hangover cures.

A Welcome in the Sangres. The demonios. De Puebla. Yeah. Hello, everyone. Welcome to seeking derangements. This is Ben.

I'm here with Hessa. Jock is joining us shortly. He told us he was up until... That he woke up at 6 p.m. yesterday. So I don't know if he slept. Who really knows? He slept from maximum 2 p.m. yesterday to 6 p. yesterday.

Extremely disturbing behavior. Yeah. Over the weekend told us, I have, I'm more sick than anyone's ever been. Right. I have the flu, COVID, and strep at the same time. And then... It's just, it's, it's complete madness. And then a day later, texted us, they tested me for flu, COVID, and strep, and all of them were negative.

And that was to him that indicated that. he had an unknown disease that was going to kill him that was worse than any disease yet seen by man. It's like biblical. And then now he's feeling a lot better. Yeah. Low and bold. Except for not sleeping.

Yeah, I wonder what that could be. If there's any kind of, you know, I don't know. Probably just some virus or something. I'm really not one to talk. I'm back in New York. I've been on an insane bender, which I am stopping. For the record, everyone getting my act together and I'm not continuing my bender.

I'm drinking some snake juice. It's a high-grade electrolyte blend. Oh, period. That Jen has in her apartment. This cured my hangover one time. So I just found it. I was just like ripping through her cabinets and you can only have three packs of it daily and it tastes like, it tastes like dust. it's like really disgusting yeah but it does literally work i don't know what is what the

proprietary claim of it is but the taste alone it's one of those things it's like it's so bad it has to work yeah so guys if you hear me perk up during this recording that means the seconds you took a perk it means the second snake juice package that i just put in my water bottle is is working y'all has hit the towers yeah yeah it's such as crazy time to be back in new york city because like everyone's gone everyone's like in greece or like in the hamptons or in i mean or not my friends yeah okay yeah well i'm back now maybe back in the city well i'm locking myself inside and working for the next week so i will not be stepping out to drink or do anything

um well let's get like breakfast or something maybe oh i hate breakfast I absolutely hate I have a poor breakfast I'm sorry I will get like a late lunch or something I don't not to sound like such anorexic bitch but I am currently on like a no food journey

yeah period and I I mean even when I am like eating regularly I I hate it well I hate breakfast breakfast is like disgusting to me

It's my favorite meal. I love it. It's not the food. It's just, like, eating at that time of day. No, that's what I love about it. It's like, you wake up, you get something in you, and you're like, I'm good for hours, you know? Oh, no. See, I eat food and I'm like, I need to lay down for like an hour. Something's probably wrong. I don't know. If anyone out there knows what that is, and I'm just looking for physical diagnosis, not any psychological diagnosis. Please keep those comments to yourself. Yeah, yeah. Any kind of psychological, it's not psychological. I don't want to know. It's surreal. I don't want to know.

But, yeah, no, we should hang out. We should get jock to come up. Well, actually. How long are you here? Six weeks from here until October. I'll be here for a minute. Oh, period. Come and see me and Masha and June are seeing naked gun tomorrow. With Steve. What's that guy? With Leslie Nielsen.

Or not William Nieson. I thought Nicky comes like a comedy action movie. Yeah, it's a comedy. It's like... Oh, is Liam Neeson doing comedy action movies now? Yeah, Liam Neeson is like... He's... Yeah, he's doing...

The trailer looks hilarious. Like, for real, it looks so funny. And I've heard really good things about it. I'll think about it. You know, I also... I'm being such a, like, whiny bitch today, but I also don't like seeing movies in theater. Yeah, yeah.

Well, I'll figure out something. I'll figure out something that meets your demanding. I'm sorry. It's so annoying. It's fine. I'm like hearing myself say it and I'm like, I can't. I can't eat. Can't go see a movie in a theater?

Like so 80-year-old woman. Oh, I hate walking. Oh, no. Have you been outside yet today? I have not been outside today. I've been working. The weather's pretty nice. looks beautiful. I have to go to Best Buy after this. I'm going to go. I might just walk up to

14th Street because I'm not that far. 14th. What about the one on, um, isn't there one on Lafayette and Broadway? Like, right at that. There's a Best Buy there? Yeah. I'm getting Broadway. It might have closed. Your voice. We're both doing bad, Jock. What's up with you? I just feel like shit. I've been, you know. You look amazing. I would feel better. You look beautiful. For the listeners at a home, Jacques joined very briefly with a muted mic with his name set to Yuson.

And then rejoined. And then rejoined with his name set to dead. And now he is. What is Yuzon? Jock and I are about to have a competition for who feels worse. Buckel up, Hessa. Oh, my God. It's me.

It's going to be, yeah, it's going to be Jacques. No, no matter what. That's fine with me. I'm not getting in a competition like that. I feel like I've been hit by several buses that have all been going in one triangle formation, squishing me into nothingness. Okay. The bus muted triangle. I feel like I feel like I got dropped out of a plane and then a plane hit me on the way down.

And then that plane crashed on top of my body. And we were also in the ocean and then a bunch of sharks like chewed me to pieces. Oh, so you had it easy Because I had it a lot harder than that Okay, buddy Yeah, Jacques Bieber See this? This is a toilet

I'm inside the toilet Okay But Jacques has a toy toilet That I imagine was bought by someone To demonstrate how to use a toilet To show him It was a Marty Graw Yeah

Like a teaching device No, that was I recognize that Jock is from Tux Yes Yes This guy I know, me and Ben have done some Mardi Gras together, and by I mean done some Mardi Gras together, I mean, barely survived. A couple party monsters right here, okay? We're lucky we're alive any day

because we're so addicted to the party lifestyle. Did you ever have a hangover cure when you drank? Yeah, a gun in my mouth with a loaded bullet. Well, no, seriously. Yeah, a gun in my mouth with a loaded bullet, it scares the hangover right out of you. Think about how... how important life is to you and think about the power of the bullet behind your mouth. Now don't... I should try to find a gun somewhere. You shouldn't try this.

In general, you shouldn't put a loaded gun in your mouth. But experts do believe it can make you lose weight. Okay. Yeah, because you can't eat. Well, there's a gun in your mouth. That's true. That's what my counselor told me. Your counselor?

Yeah, counselor. My snake juice is fucking... Awful. What's the snake juice? It tastes like someone's ashes. It's so ashy and dusty and minerally and salty. Where did you get that from? It's a high-powered grade A electrolyte for mostly anorexic women, I believe.

Yeah, Ben, remember when you were like, oh, if you want electrolytes, just put table salt. Put table salt in. Honey, if you want electrolyte, you better find yourself a man. I'm just, it's so crazy because I'm picturing like a pirate on a pirate ship, taking like a big wooden mug

and dipping it in the sea and just chugging it. No, I think pink Himalayan salt has electrolytes and like vitamins and minerals. Salt is the same. I feel like all salt has got pretty much. No. No.

Picolayan salt actually. has Pink Elaine Take her out to school Jock Take this bitch Is responsible for everything Name your favorite band

Probably Wings Or suicide It's because they Or Sonic Eerie Yeah Because they all put Pink Himalayans salt

On everything Yeah Name your favorite movie Name your favorite movie Larjeant Oh That's because the whole cast Was

Neatim deep in pink Himalayan seasol. I'm actually really surprised that you remember me mentioning the Robert Brisson movie Largent. He remembers things about people's taste because taste level is really important

to jog and it's also important for his competitive spirit because then he can know who has equal taste or subpar taste or if you dare have better taste than he will attack you. I don't watch the recordings or listening to them but I do read the comments.

the comment speak volumes towards your true feelings yeah the things that we're not the one saying they speak volumes towards what we believe in our hearts i decided in my head if a bit from your comments you sound like really you sound like sound up today did you it's my throat did you take like 20 benadryl no i've just been like beaten down okay am i not good enough for this? No, you're fine. You're fine. I'm not doing I'm not doing great today either guys, I'll be honest with you.

Oh, but I forgot to say... Not to brag, but I'm feeling fine. I'm happy for you. Thank you. You're welcome. This is a free episode though, so if you want to hear us shut up and let me finish what I'm saying please go subscribe to our Patreon, patreon.com slash seeking derangements if you want to hear more.

And I'll just be honest, probably much better episodes that we're going to do today. But this one's going to be, you can call it my fault. I have really high hopes for this one. For real. Perfect. Because we've got some good stuff.

I opened two fortune cookies last night. Can I read them to you? Yes, please. I don't know. Can you? The first step towards change is awareness. The second step is acceptance. I'm like, okay, A, A, rip.

Yeah, those are really rude. Those are extreme bitching. Yeah, fuck them. And then, and then this bitch, your health will improve in April. That's so far from now. Are you fucking kidding me? Does it really say that?

Well, Jock read that in the wrong intonation. There's actually a question mark at the end. It's more of a, a cosmic question the universe has for time. Take a screenshot. I'm not taking a fucking screenshot. You have a camera on your phone. Just send it. Just send a picture. I didn't know it was a video

episode. God. Thanks. Why would I take a screenshot if it's a video episode? I didn't know it was a damn video episode. It's not a video episode. Oh, But then why wouldn't you screenshot? You can, you're a bodied, you're a grown adult man.

Why do you need a photo of your fortune cookie? Because you're the boss in the, of this empire. So I have to take every photo for you that you want for no reason. Well, why, yes. That makes me, I think that literally makes me an employee. Yeah, I'm backing you up, Jacques. It's crazy that you wanted to use his phone camera.

to take a picture of that you're a person of power ben and the fact that you wouldn't do that just disgust me people people in power don't have i'm not they're not your your picture slaves you're a person ben you're a person of operational power aka a poop a poop did ben just say he wasn't my slave what the hell i'm not but jock you never truly ever try to cure hangover through any other means um Um, you get two raw eggs or three raw eggs in a cup and don't break the yolks and you put a lot of salt, um, a little, like half a cup or not half a cup, but half a shot glass of vinegar, um, like a bunch of salt and pepper, um, hot sauce and you just swallow it whole. That helps. Kind of like a raw omelet. I swear to God.

I'm being, I'm being real. That sounds like it. might work that sounds like something that would honestly like because that sounds like one of those hangover cures also i like how you add a bunch of salt and then you add salt and pepper and i'm picturing that salt and pepper shaker that they have at subway that has both salt and pepper in it um has that metal like at also is um a hangover um a judy sind burger um a judey sindberger Yeah, any benzos are good for a hangover. Either two Judy Sinburgers or one whole po-boy.

I can't eat. I cannot eat. Is that what's going on, Jacques with you? Caesar salad. Did you take a, what's it called, a Klonopin? Oh, no, I haven't even taken a Klonopin. I swear to God I have taken nothing. I'm just tired and worn out.

Oh, poor sweetie. Can you explain why and how? you slept from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. yesterday and then not again. No, I slept from 2 p.m. till 7 p.m. and I'm going to sleep again from now as soon as this recording is done till all night. Well, I want to go pick up my medicine and then I'm going to go. Why? Why did you wake up at 7 p.m. and then decide, yep, good morning, world. Time for me to do stuff. God, that would make me feel fucking insane. Literally, like, an hour before the sun goes down, waking up and being like, yes.

Y'all, I've just been really off. I've been really off, and I have to fly tomorrow, so I hate it. Where are you going? I have to go to Denver to go get my medicine refloat. Oh, on your medevac vacation. Your fabulous vacations. It's not a fabulous vacation. I have to crash at my friends.

Oh. Well, I just always remember you making fun of Hesse. and I because they're not as well traveled as you. Yeah. I take it back, but I request that you get me a hotel this time. What the, no. Worth a shot. Can I ask you something real quick?

Yeah, yeah. I got a letterbox, like, kind of yesterday, and I wrote 80. What's your name? Sensitive jock, one word. And I wrote 83 reviews immediately. What? is that is that normal you know that's not normal well i don't know might be i love that jock i love that jock wait wait i really want to look at these and let me get your high can we get your highest

reviews and your lowest review your lowest review wait no i'm gonna i'll i'll pull them up i want because i think yeah has to go through them but jock read one read one is it sensitive underscore jock no it's sensitive jock j o c yeah here i'm going to read my word rated thing to my best rated Okay Avatar 2009 To me this is the worst movie of all time

Do not watch it rude to indigenous people Okay here's some really good ones Who negatively polarized you against Avatar Myself Okay here's the highest Reviews there's a few five stars Which I I will never

There's only five stars and maybe some one stars. See, Jacques, that's the way I use Letterbox. Like, it's, I do so many five stars and I, like, barely do anything else. Here's a great Jacques review of the movie House of Sand and Fog, inspirational, which is really good. If you haven't seen that movie, that is a maybe triple double suicide movie with, Parents mourning the loss of their child as well as a girl relapsing Jennifer Connolly. Yeah, it's not exactly inspirational. I wouldn't really call it inspirational.

It depends what you want to inspire. I don't know. Okay. Here's a great one. High Fidelity, five stars. Oh, with John Cusack? Yeah, with John Cusack. Great movie, but introduced too young, too much can cause permanent romantic issues and expectations.

Life ain't like the movies. This is a good movie, though. yeah you might expect that you'll be able to get back with your girlfriend that you dated previously which will not be the case oh here's um five-star review of poor things which jock i agree with you that movie that's a great movie it i haven't seen it it brought me the tears wonderful delight wild and beautiful perfect movie that's the jock review i'm just imagining these um these poll quotes in uh trailers for movie Okay, here's a really good one. Scooby-Doo, 2002.

Five stars, the review, no comment. Two stars, too challenging. I didn't understand what was going on. I'm sick of these hot flutin-ass movies. Here, I'm going to read one. Made in America, 1993, five stars. Truly a masterpiece, Dead Dancing, and Whoopi Goldberg, at their best in a romantic comedy that sparked a real-life romance

that sparked some of the craziest things. Parentheses, Google it. Anyway, this movie is... Are you referring to him doing blackface? Yeah. Anyway, this movie is a gym. It's a sperm donation. It's a comedy gone wrong.

There's just a lot of questionable humor. I don't even want to tell you except you just need to go watch it. It's a little bit romantic. Give yourself a treat. If you love what you've already... what you're already in and you've got incredible performance from everyone else too

and you've even got Will Smith kind of randomly in there but really focus who be Goldberg and Ted Danson would you be a sperm donor dog who's to say I haven't and I signed a document that I wouldn't be

you know involved interesting I guess I feel like that's yeah that's something you know if you had donated sperm is that you can sign a document that's like i may or may not have signed my child you cannot come i feel like they do make they do make people sign that like um like just to make sure that the people who donated the sperm will be like like legally bound to yeah they have they have like closed an open like arrangement speak in the comments if you think i do have a kid that i'm uh i know about through sperm

donations and think if comment if you think I have a kid that people don't know about including me. Here's a really good five-star review. The 2003 movie Gothica. With Halle Berry.

Yes, it's one of my favorite movies. And John Carroll Lynch, I believe, is also in it. I think the ending of the movie, he goes into bullet time and shoots a ghost in slow motion. Whoa. And there's also a

limp biscuit cover of behind blue eyes by the who featured in this movie oh i never knew there was a who cover yeah here's here's jock's review hallie berry best in a supernatural who don it with asylum as backdrop when where doctor becomes patient in shocking horror with theme song of movie by limp biscuit song called behind blue eyes really weird no punctuation that whole time was that dictated jock absolutely yes i just sat there uh as if it was the first time that i talked in years and was just talking to my phone after being silent for days alone. Your auto-dictate habit is so funny to me.

Can I go? There's so many funny five stars. You gave five stars to holes, childhood classic, was the review of that one. You gave five stars to Ghostbusters. The review is, you'd have to not have a heart to not like this. It's true. It's very sweet. Yeah.

I think that's kind of sweet. Can I read one of my one-star ones? Wait, I'm going to get to, let's get to the one-stars in a second. The next one down is The Ice Storm. Ang Lee, it's a classic, it's just, it's an excellent pace for a movie. It's sad as hell, but good as fuck. Which is beautiful. I, like, I fully agree with a lot of these,

um, with that one is a five-star. Yes, it is a, it is a, uh, A movie of vignettes introducing a line of sad characters in a way that Aang Lee can only do. But Ice Storm essentially is just like a slow burn. It's delicate. Here's a great, A Nightmare on Elm Street 3, Dream Warriors. That's so interesting. Okay, I think, never mind.

I was going to say, it says, Fave 1, it rocks. He has needles for fingers. at one point wild one wildest in series and i love um i i realized i was going to make fun of you for like because he always has like knives on his fingers but he's like dressed like a doctor or a nurse at one point right and he has like syringes yeah yeah no no no no no he's he's um dressed as a drug dealer and he's shooting up this girl who's addicted to drugs and his fingers are all needles and he injects her at the same time. It's really fucked up.

Jack, I love your taste here, honestly. I just want to say this one review. It's very short. Mystic River 2003, forgettable. And then right after that. One star? You gave it one star. No, two. It's one of the only movies I gave two star

like Infinity Pool. Okay. Now, I have a question about this one review, Jack. One really quickly. Mystic Pizza, 1988. Classic rom-com, coming-of-age girls' movie. Sisters-type movie. Okay, keep going.

Okay. Jack, don't say anything. Ben, I want you to guess what this is a review for, what movie this is a review for. Okay, got it. Maybe the most essential 90s movie in the fact, it's that era of rebooting old shows as weird modern retelling,

and this one is edgy and has RuPaul randomly, and it's really funny and about the 90s being edgy. if you can guess what movie this is ben i will give you i'll do is it clueless no you idiot oh it's the brady bunch movie it's really good a movie that i'm not kidding i did not know existed until seeing this review a 90s 1995 brady bunch movie the most essential night or it actually says estennial, the most estennial 90s movie. Okay, I want to guess another one. Let me guess another one.

Rupal is in it. It's so good. It's crazy. Okay, okay. Let me find a really good one. I'm going to read a quick one. Bad Dreams, 1988, super sick, disturbed, wacky, funky, crazy, gory, bang,

and plotline perfect 80s horror movie, totally underrated masterpiece. I'm like a poet. yeah that's beautiful which one is that for you are like a that's for bad dreams 1988 it's a really cool horror movie a lot of suicides if you

need to watch it and then I'm just to read one real other quick one this is another two star infinity pool 2023 I'm gonna rewatch and maybe change my mind while I love this director I didn't personally fancy this movie I was feeling so weird about it I love

this thing normally this kind of thing normally normally, but maybe I'm just an idiot. No, you were right about that one, John. I did not like Infinity Pool at all. You're wrong to like the director though. I mean, he has two movies and that's one of them. The other one's

son, right? Well, I just meant that in the fact that you can trust a Cronenberg, even if it's a son. Okay. I usually. You would think. Okay, here's

a great one. You don't have this account, Ben? Ben, try to guess... I do not use Letterbox. Try to guess what movie this is for. I'll give you the year as well. If you... It's... The year is 1998, okay?

Okay. I just remember seeing this when I came out. And back and then, I was, like, stunned. And it was just so cool, and I rewatched it recently, and it stands up pretty perfect crime action comedy. There's not much there. It's all just personal details about it. going on to jock's life i think it when it came out was what he may be meant to say or jock can he

give you a hint i'll give you a hint i don't i don't even know what it is one of the main two actors one of the highest billed actors in it uh is on is in the flight logs chris tucker you don't have our rush hour yeah it's rush hour oh oh oh okay i was confused wait can i read this one really it's really all right let's move on after this what okay uh wait okay i'm before we move on though I am going to switch to lowest rating first so that we can see some one stars. Let me read this one five star really quickly. Pearl, 22, five stars.

As a borderline woman myself, I relate to Pearl to Pearl Deeply. I don't carry. Yeah, Pearl from SpongeBob. Wait, can you shut the fuck up, bitch? As a borderline woman myself, I relate to Pearl deeply. I don't carry violent tendencies,

but she is just like so cool. And she just wants to be a, star i relate at this movie love classic horror okay these there's some really funny ones in the one stars okay ben i'm going to read this to you this movie came out in 2022 okay this movie deeply upset me i love horror movies comma but this was not for me period it just hurt me and it made me feel sick at the end of the movie i sobbed and i felt so bad and it didn't really feel like fulfilled or like, I don't know. I just didn't do what I needed for a horror movie.

It just was too messed up for me to realistic, for whatever reason. Obviously, it's kind of supernatural, but like the violence, you know, and I've seen some fucked up horror movies before. Every reason this one, like, psychologically shook me and made me deeply uncomfortable, and I couldn't ever watch this again. You couldn't pay me. It makes me sick to my stomach. I just sobbed after and felt terrible.

it's so difficult because there's nothing about plot or actors or yeah or really anything besides the just the the base emotional reaction jock has which i do know his reactions you know i can kind of reverse engineer what he may have seen but it's difficult to 2022 i'm imagining it's probably a little gory jock did you just delete one of the reviews no i didn't at all i really didn't okay i'm probably i need I need more of it. I need more of a hint here. Okay, it's an A24 movie.

A24, 22. I don't think you've seen it. I don't think you've seen it. Oh, yeah, you might not have seen it. It's talked to me. Oh, I've seen talk to me. I like to talk to me. That movie was fucked up.

It was fucked up. I just, okay, I know you had you said we had to stop Ben, but I don't fucking care. Do it. Okay. This is my final one-star review. The heart is deceitful above all. things 2004. A movie that again, another movie I've never heard of

in my life. It is the movie that... Wait, can I read the review? Can I... Yeah, you read it. You read the... Okay. This was a brutal flop fest. I went to go see this... 2004. Jacques, how old were you in 2004 for context

for this review? Brul fly. So funny. Freshman in high school And we were living in Corpus Christi, Texas And I went to the Let me just read it You'll see There's no way you were a freshman in high school in 2004

That's crazy I was dead in 1992 Oh my God He's old, okay Wait, you would have been 12 then Yeah Well I So that's seventh grade

Which is even funny If I No No I It was freshman year Okay let me read this review This was a brutal flop fest.

I went to see this movie in theaters with my mom. It is a graphic, grim movie of a child being taken out of his, period. Court-appointed foster home by his drug addict, comma, mother, and basically forced into a despicable life. I don't even think I can just depict in this review, period. It is one of the most sickening movies, keep in mind. I was seeing this in a dinner theater in Corpus Christi, and we had the most terrible meal, and we were eating there. and the movie just got worse and worse and we had to wait so long for our food

we had to watch some of the movie I have to admit I didn't even finish it because we walked out because it was so terrible but I did catch a glimpse of a scene that depicted something so graphic and disturbing and apparently upon review Marilyn Manson is an actor

in this depicting a despicable character doing one of the most horrid things I've ever seen also with Asia Argento being the lead in this movie to me that could have effectively dissolved her career. If it didn't, I do not mean to promote any malice in my review of this. Oh, my God. This movie just gave me absolutely

despicable. Terrible like how it is an atrocious movie. Now, I must make... It's like Charlie from Always Sunny, right? I need to add some details that will, and this will be the final thing I ever talk about movies in this episode.

So this is the movie where Asia Argento groomed a child. actor who played her son and she waited until he turned 17 and then flew to Europe and fucked him. Also, Marilyn Manson is raping this child actor in the movie. It's one of the most fucked up things ever. And this is like this second movie where Marilyn Manson is like a ski.

ball sort of rapist like or fucking he's fucking a high schooler and um jawbreaker so yeah jock i love some of these are really your review i don't i will move on now but like i don't care

we can you guys keep going i really love i some of you like this is amazing i love this turn for you of making a letterbox like can i read your five star review of enter the void a movie which i love by the one Gaspar, no, is a genius.

Delicatessen, if you haven't seen it. That is such a high school podcast movie for me. Wait, wait, not Delicentatessen. I meant, um, Delegatessen is John Paul Jeannay. Are you, are you mentioning, are you trying to talk about irreversible? Irreversible, where he's, yes, that is that movie fucking rocks. Those two movies mixed up is so funny. It's absolutely insane.

It's like the opposite. Delicatessen is by the director. of Amelie. Delicotessin is like the apocalyptic in the world in the apartment thing, in the apartment building. It does take place in an apartment building. Yeah, yeah. I think you are talking about the same type film.

Ben, I love, that's great for the audio. I'm sorry. He's a piece pissed that he has to hear this. No, no, no, no, no. Okay, I'm going to try and read this enter the void review in one uh because there's no punctuation in the entire review but i do i do think it's a good review and i like it i love that movie i think it's i do too it's really good it's it's it's it's it's it's saved three and a half hours and get some drugs but ready here we go ready okay this was just a perfect movie that entangles your entire being with a blast of the most intense plot lines paired with innovative jarring visual set at the backdrop of glittery japan

nightlife with iconic vanages of modern day Japan it is a very jarring movie and it's very long be rest for the commitment it's three hours long also not to scare you but i recommend you take this movie with substances you interpret that how you will wow that's the uh iconic shock review of enter the void the wait tropic thunder says that whoa that was a surprise i never saw it till recently it's shocking comedy gold you've never seen you'd never seen you'd never seen you'd never tropic thunder jock i saw it for the first time in the last two or three months that can't be right that's i swear to god i had never seen it for years it's so good i think my i think about it before i think yeah i think my idiot ass was like oh this one could

be too offensive which is crazy for me to say Robert tony jr. blackface yeah Robert tony junior in blackface um you don't what you don't care i don't care no no no I wasn't... Also, they make Tom Cruise look weird in it, but... Okay, here's a review. Tom Cruise has prosthetic hands and traumatic... White Chicks, 2004. So, so, so, so, so, so, so funny.

I die. Every time I rewatch this movie, like insanely powerful comedic delivery from the masterminds, it is an absolute instant comedy classic. It will be forever funny. I totally agree. It's coming back. Well, why, yes.

Okay, but they don't need to make all these damn sequels all the time. Yeah, I agree. I'm excited to see the new naked gun. Bringing Down the House, 2003. I loved bringing down the house with the Tifa and Seafort. That movie was iconic. It's just really crazy, and Betty White says the most questionable lines of her entire career. I just saw this.

in the i saw i just saw this in theaters when i was younger and even back then i just saw this in theaters when i was younger and even back then i was like what the hell but yeah like random the movie is really random yeah i yeah i really love these um everyone follow jock it's sensitive jock no space i'll link i'll link your letterbox in the show description jock so yeah let's juice it let's get jockson let's juice it let's get him on yeah let's get him let's get him do steroids let's juice mm-hmm yeah the princess diaries 2001 five stars i mean come on young me was shook when i saw this because i felt like young me is a yeah korean friend that he has a

i mean come on young me was shook when i saw this because i felt like the ugly girl and then i felt like a princess after and you can be a princess too that's really wonderful I do love these Chuck you have good taste in movies genuinely I mean Jack has amazing taste in most things yeah

Bridget I mean it's shocking that I'm alone and that I'll probably be alone for the rest of my life because no one will stay by me or stay with me Bridget John's Diary 2001 I've just seen this movie a thousand times and I've always thought it was funny based it thought it was so funny based on the book which i happened to read in jail and the movie was

already so incredible to me and then i read the book and i was like wow 360 this is amazing anyway the movie is just romantic comedy classic status i believe it's a retelling of pride and prejudice but i could be wrong but it's just like has this immaculate vibe if you ever felt like you weren't the right type to be loved or you didn't feel hot this movie like gave me self-esteem when I was low. This movie is just a tour to force spelled a T-O-U-R-

space D-E-S-E-S- F-O-U-R-C-E. That's, I mean, that's pretty close to how you spell Torter to Force. The only thing that's wrong is the U and Forth. That's the shortest review for the most fucked-up movie.

Fear, 1996, very wild freak show good I was five stars five stars it says no spoilers but I wanted to put warning if you're an animal lover they do cut off a dog's head

of this movie you can no you can add a spoiler tag so that it warns people that there's a spoiler in the movie and they have to click on it if you want to review I'll show you how to do that later shock but the um here you gave Charlie's Angels

a five star review Okay, well, wait, just, you can read it, but why, are you arguing with that right now? Yeah, it's a terrible movie. No, you're, you're, you're so stupid. You're a dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb, fucking bitch. I'll fist bite you down the road. This is stupid of you. You're disrespectful.

You're a racist. You don't believe in women. I'm a racist. Yeah, Lucy Luz in that movie. Have you ever seen it? Oh, my God. Have you ever, do you not like Bernie Mac? I mean, I love Bernie Mac.

Well, then why do you, why are you being a racist in telling me that you hate Charlie's Angel? I think you're being a racist because you're like any movie with a person who is a race. Any movie that you don't like Hessa with people of color makes you a racist. Okay. Fact. Sometimes I think this is like the coolest movie to come out of this time in cinema. We like movies were just stylized so funky and cool and this is like a perfect blend of action and adventure comedy and just like three really cool actresses playing. one of the coolest movies ever.

I don't know. This is very endearing, and it's good soundtrack. You'll love this movie. What year? Oh, we, that was for Charlie's Angels. That was 2000. Charlie's Angels 2000,

which was famously, um, critics at the time called it like, the worst movie ever made. I don't even think that's true. It's like one of the most incredible movies by every... Lett have to talk. We understand.

I, I do think that, some of that was like you know the this misogynistic uh air air in the like yeah so i i went into watching it like ready to be like this actually really good but it really does like suck it really is like there's it's one of the worst it really is like terrible i haven't i've never seen it it didn't it was never on my radar as a child um what about it is so why was it so widely panned. Outside of the like, yeah, I mean, the early 2000s were a uniquely misogynist time, especially, like, against hot women. I guess all women, but like people really loved calling hot women stupid then. Like, if you were at all sexy, everyone in the tablade press and the media at large would just talk about how fucking dumb you are all the time. Okay, wait a second. Some of the biggest critics in the, in the scene, I'm reading the reviews. right now. David Edelstein liked it. Pete

Traverse liked it. The Washington Post gave it a positive review. Variety gave it a positive review. Roger Ebert called it a movie without a brain. Charlie's Angels is like a trailer for a video game movie

lacking only the video game and the movie. I think that's what kind of what I would say about it. That's so funny. He was such a bitch. I loved reading. I met when I I was like a 11-year-old, 10-year-old. I used to love reading movie reviews, not even seeing movies, and I would particularly love when the reviewers were mean,

which I'm sure that makes sense. Now it makes sense, given how my life has unfolded, but at the time I didn't know what I liked about it so much, but I was just like, I cannot wait to read these bitchy guys complain about things. Yeah, I mean, wait, can I read some of Ebert's Colligula? of you. Oh, fuck those guys. Fuck Roger, fuck eager. What do you think about them,

Jock? I'm curious. I think they're fucking old hags who think they have a good taste, but they couldn't sniff their own asshole because they're too far up each other's own assholes. And fuck that Nosferatu, man. I don't think that shit's sexy at all. Fuck

Lily Rose Depp. Fuck Roger and Ebert. They're just a bunch of fucking old men who deserve nothing but to be drove. Do you think Roger Ebert made. You're thinking of Robert Eggers who made Nussmerant. Oh, my God. I was wondering what this was about.

Okay. Wow. I think he kind of condensed them into one person. Yeah. Also, that's almost word for word what Vincent Gallo said about Roger Ebert. Oh, my God. Besides also Vincent Gallo saying when asked to comment on Roger Ebert getting his jaw removed because of, because he had cancer, Vincent Gallo was like, good. he deserved it or something.

Finally you'll shut the fuck up. He's kind of one of the funniest people in the world I was reading his... Vincent Gallo? Yeah, I was reading his Wikipedia a few days ago. And one of the things is he's like on this rant in this interview. And he's like, I was the greatest dishwasher in New York. People came to this restaurant and they commented how clean the dishes work. It's literally you.

It's you. Literally you. Every time you are talking about your... It's all for you. Every time you're talking about, like, what you can do to people when they want to hire you, you always say dishwasher is like, I'm a celebrity, a dishwasher, a podcaster, a DJ. Like, you forget the main things you do. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, you're very similar to Vincent Gallo drug. Yeah, you are.

Oh, my God. I am too, and that we're both from Buffalo. Oh, right. Right. And we're both right wing. No, just kidding. He's such a crank. Oh my god, you've both played a transsexual.

Yes. That's actually true, yeah. Got that bitch, yo. I want fire tonight. I need no sleep for nothing. Did you just auto, were you just auto-dictating letterbox reviews in your bed for seven hours? Yeah, you took like 12. It honestly, like, someone was in one hour.

Okay. So what did? you take a uh what's the sleep medicine i'm thinking of ambium yeah ambien did you take ambien and like i did not take ambien i did not take sarahquil i took weed powder and i took kind of a lot so a fake drug you took a fake this is not a fake drug hessa if i bought you some of this and mailed it to you from the company i'm never touching that shit in my life would you scoop some and put some in a spoon extremely disturbed put some in a spoon what do you mean in a you you take a spoonful of that Not a spoonful.

I take the end of the spoon, the other end of it, and I get two spoons out. Well, you got to have a lighter and you got to heat up the spoon. You got to add some water to it. I'm just telling you this is the strongest stuff out there for the weed heads. You couldn't get harder. You couldn't get harder. It's disturbing. My dick was crazy when I did this.

I should watch a movie tonight. What movie would you guys? I know that I'm on a podcast with two freaking movie experts. but yeah i watched eddington last night isn't it so good i kind of liked it i mean i did like it i was it was not my favorite um a y aster movie i've seen um i mean me neither bow bow is afraid is my favorite is really good i did like i thought the acting was amazing the like the political angle of it to me felt a little shallow um not that there wasn't any conclusion really met with politics

And not that I don't think there was, it lacked a certain point, but I found it to be, I think it's better evaluated as looking at it as like a depiction of what was happening at the time. Yeah, absolutely. And less about it having a moral or a lesson. But even though just being like, oh, I'm not just depicting the time with a kind of conspicuous lack of point of view. Yeah, exactly. I kind of felt like a little bit of a cop out to me. I turned that centrist fantasy, 30, 35 minutes off. It was very, I mean, yeah, 35 minutes off, of course, like, you would think it's very centrist because that's like what the protest scene.

Right, right. Yeah, you would watch that and be like. I don't think he was being centrist. I think he was just trying to accurately depict what the political influences were at the time. Yeah. But I, I just, I feel like. Well, let's not, clearly, Ari Aster, you have a point of view. And maybe you don't want to, like, put your, you don't want to, you know, make it too heavy-handed.

But there's something between just doing a kind of making movie about this point in time politically. There's a way to do it without commentary. And there's a way to do it with commentary. and he kind of decided to do without any, like, personal commentary, even though I, you know he has certain beliefs about it. Yeah, he's left, he's, like, pretty left-wing guy, you know? He listens to Choppo. He's listened to one episode of this show.

That's so funny. No, no, but that being said, I did like the movie. That's just, like, a small, I guess, gripe I had with it, but I loved the ending scene. I thought the ending scene was so fucking funny. Oh, my God. The ending scene, when the guy gets in the bed. Oh, my God.

And also my favorite, one of my favorite moments where you start thinking like, okay, so he is going to give this, like, political, he is putting like a point of view on this. He's putting some, you know, it actually is like a pointed critique of one side from the view of the other side. And then suddenly it cuts to a plane with the globe emoji on the tail. With he like the Fed. Antifa super soldiers coming in. But I mean, I guess that was never. really, I mean, I assumed that they were Yeah, feds. They were, yeah,

feds or mercenaries hired by the the data operating center or whoever to go in and impose as Antifa super soldiers, but I kind of like imagining them as just legitimately straight up being anti-foot super soldiers. Yeah, yeah. He said like

that's, uh, they're meant to be a litmus test of your politics. Like if you see them one way they're one thing. If you see them another way, it's another right. When, um, I haven't been fed today. Me and Will went to an advanced screening of it for... Cue the screaming, Jock. Do you want to get a jealousy scream out?

I'm just done with Ariaster after Midsomer, and I liked Midsomer, but in the Hereditary's good, but I just... I don't need all that. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, I... I... I was afraid it's good.

At this advanced screening, Greg Gutfeld was there. Oh, my God. I love Greg Gutfeld. He's so fucking goal. What's a Greg Gutfeld? He is a Fox News commentator who has like a comedic bent. But yeah, he's so just insufferable. I love watching his show.

Me Will, Kath, and my younger brother sitting in the front row at the like screening room in Soho House, which has a movie theater apparently. and like Kat that just leans over and is like that's fucking Greg Gutfeld behind us that is okay you know he was like he was absolutely cheering when the Antipaw Super Soldiers came on screen Oh he I think he walked out before then I think he walked out when Joaquin Phoenix shot

Spoilers He shot Ted Garcia I love that scene too Oh my God's so good I did love seeing Pedro Pascal's character get shot, as well as just saying Pedro Pascal get shot. I hated Ted Garcia so much. Yeah, no, he's like one of the worst.

Oh, so contemptible and smug. And such a real, like, that's a real type of guy that we see in the world. Absolutely, yeah. No, I thought the movie was great overall. I really, I really liked it. I thought it was hilarious. The ending scene where, yeah, the home, the home health care, whatever gets in death.

the mom the mom keeps showing him these videos torturing him I know it's like so funny sorry I wasn't I wasn't gonna get spoiled even though I'm never gonna finish that movie I was busy writing a review of it's complicated the Nancy Myers Merrill Streep Alec Baldwin's super hit

I'm just addicted to this letterbox What movie should I watch tonight guys Okay have you ever seen the Bridget Jones Edge of Reason it's the sequel Well, let me just start with this. What are you in the mood for? I'll wrap up the show like I started the show by making very drastic demands. Be careful.

I hate romantic comedies. Okay. I don't really even like comedies that much. I like horror movies. I like thrillers. I like suspense. I like movies that like make me feel anxious and kind of on the edge of my series. Here's a really good one, Ben.

Okay. Clute. Starring, yeah. It's one of my favorite movies of all time. Okay, how do I spell it? K-L-U-T-E. It stars Jane Fonda and Donald Sutherland. It's from the 70s.

Jane Fonda, it's one of my favorite performances ever in a movie by Jane Fonda in this movie. It's unreal. Interesting. It starts off a little bit slow, but if you can stick with it, Um, let me give you a few more. She looks amazing in it. She is, have you ever seen that movie with, what is this name? Milk's Maddniz, Madsman.

Mads Mickelson, Milk's Madness. What is this movie called? Episode title, Milk's Madness. I just watched it last week and I've loved it. Another one? Pusher. No, it's, it's, he's, Valhalla Rising. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

He is, he plays a, um, a divorced teacher in a small Finnish town who is accused of uh oh the hunt the hunt i loved that movie that's a great movie i love that okay ben i'm not even joking i genuinely think you would like this movie m butterfly uh 1993 why is that sounds so familiar with jeremy irons um and john low i've seen this movie i like this i i've seen that movie i like it's a david cronenberg movie that's not a body horror movie exactly i've seen it i've seen it yeah exactly what you mean You know what I meant. Let me look.

I'm looking at my... I loved the cure. Oh. One of my favorite movies. You mean cure? Oh, I love the band. Kiyoshi Kurosawa movie. Yeah, the Kurosawa movie.

I love Kier. I was about to recommend that one. I'm not even kidding. It's one of my favorite movies. Okay, if you liked that... I love, like, Michael Hanicki. I like Lantamose. It's like so film student and pretentious,

but I do love... No, it's... You're right to love them. I think that you should re-watch the Todd Hayes classic Safe. Oh, I've seen. Todd Haynes. I have Todd Haynes. I've seen Safe many times.

I love Safe. It's one of the funniest movies. Yeah. The, um, I love Julianne more in that. You know, I watched the sequel to Silence of the Lambs recently. Oh, Red Dragon. It's so bad. I like, I kind of like it.

I think, I don't think it's that bad. I don't think it's that bad. I think compared to Silence of the Lambs of the Lambs. The Lames is like absolutely atrocious. Because it is just like fully like just kind of an action horror. Mm-hmm. Yeah. But Julianne Moore was very funny in it.

Oh no. Julian Moore. That's, oh my God, that's Hannibal. That's, uh... Yeah, the sequel to Sounds of Lams, isn't it? It's the one, it's the one right after. And then there's Hannibal, which is the third installment. Yeah.

Red Dragon is the one with Edward Norton. Yes. No, the one right after where they replaced Clarice with... Yeah. Julianne Moore because I always forget that one came first It's like actually so bad And the way that movie opens is so funny

They're like okay She shoots a woman holding a baby to her chest And like this is not the same character It's not even her But also like that does the shooting But they're like Just because she was in charge of the op People are blaming her for this

It's like and also one of my favorite moments Like literally one of the first lines in that movie is they're like laying out the plans to bring down this Jamaican uh yeah this Jamaican drug dealer uh who has a mother and has like dreadlocks and they're like um be careful when you're pulling her in because she puts hair she puts HIV positive needles in her hair yes so that you can't search her yes and i'm just like this is not this is such a far cry from silence of the lambs just unbelievably racist right off the bat. Oh, yeah.

This is starting to be, like, crazy. No, I know. And there's, like, so many slow-motion cuts and, like, explosions. Yeah. It's so crazy. I love Hannibal Lecter doing poppers with Gary Oldman. Yeah, I know. He's such a faggot in that movie, too.

Would you like some pop-as? Yeah, yeah. And then he, like, slits his face off, and I'm like, I don't, this is so, it was so just, like, out of left field. I was not expecting that. Yeah, Ben, Clute is fantastic. another one Have you seen the mummy?

I would I actually jock The mummy's amazing I loved the mummy when I was a child My dad and I loved the mummy That was like my favorite movie as a kid Yeah Another one Ben that you could watch

A very A similar movie I mean the crying game is really good I've seen the crying game Tiny up time down Have you seen that The L Motivar film I do not like him very much

Really? I don't know. I don't, something about his movies I don't really like. Wow. Okay. I can't articulate it,

but I haven't seen one where I've just been like blown away, not for any specific reason. Did he, did he do It too Mama Tambien? No, that's, uh,

that's, uh, Alfonso Corone. No, racist ass. Wait, wait, what did you just say?

You should watch Tie Me Up, time me down because it's fantastic. It's called Time Me Up, time me down, Jock. It stars, uh,

Antonio Banderas and, I forget who the girl is. The girl is Victoria Abreel. Have you seen Antonio Banderas in the Mabo Kings movie? I have not. 1992. It's so good.

It's got Antonio. Look, I'm not even, I'm not even, I'm not even making a joke right now. This movie has got Antonio Banderas. singing beautiful Maria of my soul, that traditional Latino-Mexican song in the Mambo King's style. It's kind of a biopic. But imagine they're probably Cuban. They must be Cuban. Letterbox review for Mambo Kings, done.

On air. Did you just record one literally? On air. On air. Let the record show. Also, Antonio Banderas is not Mexican. He's Spanish. But he's playing a Mexican character, I think.

No, he must be playing a Cuban. No, if it's Mambo, he's playing a cube. And I almost guarantee you that it's... I messed up. I'm sorry. Let me look this movie up. No, I mean, I don't care. It's a musical drama film.

The film was blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Brothers and Inspiring Musicians Who Find Success and Stardom after fleeing from Havana, Cuba to New York City. Also, Ben, there's one movie that I highly... highly, highly, highly recommend along the lines of the movies you named that you like feeling

under suspense. You don't like romantic comedy. You like, and I'm going to get yelled at by, I might get yelled at in the comments for recommending this, but it's truly one of my favorite. It's truly one of my favorite, thank you, Jacques. It's truly one of my

favorite thrillers of all time. It's called Matchpoint. It's by a direct, a young, a young upstart director named Woody Allen made in 2005 starring. Oh, my God. Yeah.

That one's so much better. I, oh, I've, I've seen Matchpoint, Hessa. Yeah, Match point, isn't it so good? It's a pretty good movie.

It's 2003 by Ridley Scott. Is it? It's Scarjo, right? Yeah, Scarjo. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Loved her. I also rewatched under the skin recently. Oh, my God, amazing.

I love that movie so much. Oh, Ben. Have you seen Sexy Beast? Yes, actually it's been a long time since I've seen Sexy Beast. I know me too. I rewatched it like last night. And it's literally like if Jacques was our boss, that's sexy Beast would be like Ben Kingsley in that movie is for.

Oh my God. Yeah, I should, I do really like Jonathan Glazer's movies. Yeah, he should rewatch Sexy Beast. He's fantastic, dude. He's really cool. So fucking good. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Have you ever seen 100 cigarettes?
