Hey, welcome to The Ringer Podcast Network. This week on The Ringer.com, it's 1999 movies week.
Already up on the site, we've released parts one and two of the top 50 movies of 1999.
And later this week, Shea Serrano is writing about The Matrix.
Andrew Grudadarro is writing about cruel intentions. And Rob Parvilla argues why being John Malkovich is the best movie of that year.
You can also check out the Big Picture podcast to hear Sean Fennacy, Amanda Dobbins, and Chris Ryan share their top five favorite movies from 1999.
Check out those articles on the ringer.com and listen to the big picture wherever you get your podcasts.
What's up, guys, and welcome to tea time. This is a weekly pop culture podcast on the Ringer podcast network.
I'm Liz Kelly. I'm Kate Hollowell. And I'm Amelia Weddemeier. And today we're going to talk about the new Keeping Up with the Kardashians trailer.
The drama. Nicholas Cage's extremely short marriage. And our thoughts on The Ringer's 1999 movie speak.
Every time you hear the bell, we have to change topics no matter what. And now let's spill the tea.
Okay, first category. This is Tea Time checks in with. We're starting off really strong, high energy. Our girl, Gwyneth Paltrow, is back on the slopes. We love a comeback.
3.1 million dollar lawsuit is not holding our girl down. She is on vacation with her family, including Apple Martin. For those of you who aren't keeping as close to tabs on this lawsuit as I am, Gweth Paltrow had an incident back in 2016 where she basically mowed down an older gentleman on the ski slopes in Dear Valley.
And left him to die. Screaming at the top of her lungs.
She claims he claims he has brain damage, she's bruised ribs at the time.
She is counterswing for one single dollar just basically on principle.
Anyway, she can't be tied down by this.
She's back on those slopes with her daughter.
The point was she Instagrammed actually from this week from this trip.
And it's a nice like chairlift photo of her and Apple.
Martin.
You can barely see both like you can barely see her daughter.
And then she commented, mom, we have discussed this.
You may not post anything without my concern.
That's kind of amazing.
She's 14.
This is scary.
Teenagers are legitimately scary people.
And the photo, like, she's wearing huge goggles.
You can't see Apple Martin.
You could say that it's like Chris Martin from Polaro.
And I just genuinely feel like she was being serious.
Like, this is, she's mad.
Wow.
Without my consent.
I have not, yeah.
I know.
I tried finding more info for you guys.
I can't find out where they are or what else they're doing.
But that's all you need to know is she's back on the slope.
Okay.
Other things we're checking in with.
Season 16 of Keeping Up the Kardashians is premiering this Sunday on the 31st.
They released a trailer.
It's dark.
It's pretty scary.
And Chloe Kardashian has reached a breaking point.
Kate, out of the three of us, you care the least about this enterprise.
You watched the trailer.
Can you predict three plot points that will happen this season?
So my Kardashian IQ is at like an all-time high because of this podcast.
So I actually understood like way more than I really wanted to from this trailer.
First of all, it's so dark and dramatic.
It's like those Christopher Nolan trailers where it's like,
don't, don't.
And then there's like a pause and then there's like dialogue.
Like that happens multiple times in this trailer.
Kanye had his hands in this trailer, you know.
And his song is playing underneath at all.
Crazy.
It's like slow motion shots of like his Sunday service,
like him surrounded by people in white.
You know about his Sunday service.
Boppin.
Oh yeah.
I'm so proud of you.
So basically Chloe cries like every three seconds in this video.
She's really going through it.
Yeah.
I assume because of Tristan.
not once with twice, right?
There's one moment that we need Liz to recreate
just so you can really understand what happens.
It cuts to her and she just lets out
this guttural scream.
A millionaire are going to do this together.
We just watched this.
Wait, what did she say again?
I'll just do it.
I'll just do it.
She's on the phone.
She's upset.
Obvious with Tristan Thompson.
Payness a picture.
His lying ass is probably being like,
babe, it's not me.
Like, she came onto me, blah, blah.
Chloe Kardashian screams into the phone.
Her best friend is next to her, like,
trying to hold her back.
And she's like,
It's so loud
I'm really sorry for those of you listening
That is a really unfortunate sound
But she sounds
She's screeching
Legit crazy
Like she has reached honestly
Some like edge of the cliff moment
There's like some dramatic music
Like pictures of like Jordan Woods
And like dramatic music over there
Like a couple shots
The song is called Runaway
Is that what it's called?
I don't know
It's the Kanye West song that is like 12 minutes long
And of course it is
It's from his My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy album, which is a great album.
Yeah.
And it's the one with like the ballerinas and stuff.
And he wrote it after the whole Taylor Swift fiasco.
Remember when he was like drunk with On Hennessy and he was like, I just want to let everyone know.
No, but thank you for reminding me.
Do you guys remember that?
My Kanye IQ is not as high.
Wow.
That was like the beginning.
That was, that's what he claims made her famous.
Oh.
Interesting.
Okay.
When he rushed, bumrushed the stage was like,
Beyonce had the best video.
Obviously, I remember that.
Start with that.
Okay, sorry.
It was that.
It was that.
He wrote the song as like a response to that.
Oh my God.
This season is going to be dark.
It's so dramatic.
It toasts to Kylie and Jordan.
Be like, here's to Kylie and Jordan.
And everyone's all happy.
The edit is savage.
I cannot wait.
Okay.
Other people are checking in with.
Amelia, take this one.
Oh my God.
Okay.
So Emily Radikowski, who we know from the Blurred Lions video.
I love that you introduce her like that every time.
Nobody knows her anymore from the blurred lines videos.
What do we know her for?
Her Instagram being like a cesspool.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
A cesspool.
A cesspool of men thirsty after her, I should say.
She could do whatever she wanted.
Right, right, right.
But anyway, she got in trouble.
Well, her husband did because they're living red free in their New York City loft apartment
because of a loophole in the loft or something.
And now she's hitting back on Twitter.
And she's like...
You know, my husband won.
He's 38, not 31.
So I guess she, like, fact, I don't.
That doesn't even matter.
Yeah.
And she said that he's an independent movie producer.
So people thinking he's rich is real nice, but not based in fact.
It's just like, also it's like, you know.
Why does that name of this matter?
And you're rich.
Also, like, you're married.
Apologize.
And also, you're married.
So you're sharing funds.
We know you made a lot of money last year.
Right.
That blurred lines video.
It is residuals from that.
They're still coming in.
But she's had that dumb-ass movie.
With Zach Ephron?
We are your friends?
No, but the one with Aaron Paul, where it's like, this is the decline of Aaron Paul's career.
It was like a Skinna Max lifetime collaboration.
We have to be mocked about Chris Evans.
Do you do this quickly.
I know, I'm so sorry.
He did a photo shoot with THR.
And you know I know every Chris Evans photo shoot, like the back of my hand.
I saw these pictures and like for a good 15 minutes was like, these are old.
Why are people pretending like these are new?
Chris Evans, do a new photo shoot, wear some new clothes, pick some new poses.
Every time it's like tight sweater, beard, like soulful gaze.
And I need you to do like 10% more.
Like give me slightly more effort.
Sure.
But I think Kaya said this.
He knows what works for him.
I know.
But it's not enough anymore.
Oh, really?
Because it's not for me.
Move on.
Move on.
Okay.
Next category.
This is this week in social media.
I'm sure you guys, at this point, it's a Friday.
Everyone's pretty sick of talking about bagels.
It, like, took the internet by storm.
This guy, Alec Kratman tweeted earlier this week from some office place and was like,
Today I introduced my co-workers to St. Louis Secret of ordering bagels bread sliced.
It was a hit.
And everyone was like, what the hell are you doing?
It's like sliced really thin.
I'm into this.
Okay, I love bagels.
Sometimes I don't know what to pick.
They're like four different kinds.
I'm like, I want pumpernickel.
But they're all flimsy.
I also want Osiago.
And I also want this other kind.
And then you can have little slices of each of each of them.
them do a different kind of cream cheese on all of them, and it's like a little bagel buffet.
At the ringer.com, we have bagels like once every week.
And I always have to buy them.
I have to buy them.
I know.
That's because they're not breadslice and I have to make a choice.
Whereas I would do this.
If they were bread sliced.
Okay, I'm already mad at this debate, but that's how I feel.
Everyone went crazy about their opinions, as they usually do on Twitter.
And then even companies like chips a hoy.
I don't know if you saw this.
You're like, today we're eating dirt cookies, St. Louis style.
And it was like a milk.
whatever glass, like pouring over an open container of Chips Ahooy that, like, filling up the box like Sierra.
You're like, it's like, honestly looks-stop, chips a hoy.
Kind of good. Okay. No one else shares that opinion. Okay, no worries. Anyway, we can move on.
Next person on social media. Just real quick, Justin Bieber posted on Instagram that he's going to be taking a break from music and from touring.
And just for his mental health, he said, you guys probably saw I was unhappy last tour. And I don't deserve that. And you don't deserve that.
You pay money to come and have a fun, light concert. And I was unable emotionally to give you that near the end of it.
the tour. So he's going to take some time off, you know, do some soul searching and good for him.
Best Wishes. I'll do that Liz Kelly Best Wishes.
Yes. Send them off well. Okay, Amelia, next time.
Okay, so Netflix, you know, Netflix's Twitter account, it does the first person thing,
which is fine. It's cute. I don't know. Yeah, it's fine. I mean, I don't care. But anyway,
so it's really promoting the crap out of Brie Larson's new movie called Unicorn Store.
That looks like a disaster. It looks horrible. And they're promoting it because it's like, a
female empowerment.
It's directed by a female.
It's just, like, annoying.
And it's like, okay, well, that doesn't take away from the fact that it looks like a really
shitty-ass movie.
They're, like, very blatantly using, like, feminism to sell this thing.
And it's so skeevy.
It's so skeevy.
Like, they're tweeting, like, somebody replied and said something to their tweet,
and they were, like, Brie Larson, 58 acting nominations.
Oh, this.
Oh, my God.
After this, like, single person with, like, 300 followers.
And then Brie Larson quoted that was, like, Netflix.
and got like 30,000 retweets.
We're like really over the Breilarsson trying so hard.
I don't need to be a hater, but she
forced me to be a hater.
She has to do less.
She really has to do less.
You're embarrassing yourself.
At this point she is.
I feel the same way.
And it's working and people are buying into it and it really bothers me.
Yes.
People are, well, you know, they need to.
They're suckers.
They need to educate.
You all need to educate yourselves.
Well, and this is brief.
This is on a good note.
This will bring you back to your happy place.
Miley Cyrus is transforming back into Hannah Montana.
She's dyed her hair, cut her bangs.
She has been all over social media posting throwback to the last couple weeks
and kind of like hinting at like you guys are going to freak out when you see in all these pictures of Hannah Montana.
So she's started the transformation.
She's also been recently.
It is a transformation.
It's funny to me.
She's also been tagging at Hannah Montana, which right.
Right now has zero posts, no even little picture, but Miley Cyrus follows it.
80,000 other people follow it.
Liz Kelly follows it because I'm waiting for something to happen and I'm going to be the first to know.
Do you really think it's coming back?
No.
I think she's going to make a Hannah Montana album.
No.
Yes.
Because she's like tagging at Mike or Will made it, you know, that her collaborator.
What if she's going to do like an Ariana Grande like music video tribute to Hannah Montana?
So like she has a new song.
Great.
And then the music video is going to be like Hannah Montana theme.
Yes. Or if she wants to bring Hannah Montana back all together, she comes back from college, she's like ready to embrace her life.
Oh my God. I need anything at all. That's really funny. I can't believe this is happening. I can't tell you guys. When her head was shaved and she was like on her crazy dead pit story, I was like, I've lost the one person, the one celebrity that brings me true joy. And now she's back.
Is this is it for you? Yeah. Wow. I'm sorry. Anyway, thank you. Okay. Next category. This is T-Times's biggest relationship news ever. Okay. This first one is kind of a joke because they're so.
little info on it. I'm going to make this brief.
Jamie Fox and Katie Holmes
appear to be back together
after last month, or in February,
he was at an after party for the Oscars
and screamed into a crowd of people like,
I'm saying, oh. It was very much
like Chloe Kardashian. Yeah, Jessica
Shores. Shore.
Yes. Anyway,
they've been strolling in Central Park.
They're at the Met in New York. They're back together.
Again, I tried finding more info on this for you guys,
but, like, there's nothing. They're obviously
not broken up. She's not broken up.
They both have.
bad hats on. He has like the awkward sock cap that has like four inches of extra space
that's not on his head. And then she has like a, looks like she knitted herself and tied it under
her chin. She tied it under her chin. It's quite horrible. But she's like never been like super
cool. You know what I mean? She's just like she's like sleeping into like a momdom.
They both look ridiculous. Yeah. Okay. Other relationship news. This is actually pretty big.
This is big. So Mel B, the Spice Girls are coming back this year for a tour without Victoria
Beckham. She's the only one not joining them. Mel B. went on Pierce Morgan and basically
confirmed that she hooked up with Jerry Hallowell. And again, Jerry Hallowell's name now is Jerry Horner.
I refuse to call her that because she's the most famous Hallowell. And so I will be referring to her as Jerry Hallowell.
She went on Pierce Morgan and he was like, you were coming here to be brutally honest. Did you or didn't you sleep with Jerry Hallowell? And then she was like, yeah, yeah, we all slept into bed together. And Pierce Morgan, the only good thing, Pierce Morgan has ever done. He was like, but did you sleep with her like that? And which is the question we all wanted to know? And Melby confirms it. She's like, yeah.
Was this a thing? Was this like rumored to you?
But she didn't know that either.
It must have been a rumor.
It must have been.
It must have been.
Because he, like, very specifically asked about Jerry.
Yeah.
Oh.
Because I feel like anytime you get a group of girls together, men are gross and are like,
sure.
But he did specifically ask about Jerry, which made me think that there was a specific rumor about them.
So the weirdest thing now is like, she's like really dialing it back, like really running it back.
She was like, I called Jerry.
She was like, I just admitted that we had a little bit of a thing.
It wasn't a big deal.
We talked to each other on the phone.
If you read the transcript, I kind of just said it wasn't like a little thing.
Like she's really running it back now and being like, oh, which makes it more obvious.
Like, yes, it did happen.
Yeah, for sure.
She's like, it was just one night.
Like, oh.
This is going to be a spice girls to hook up.
I for sure would have thought I'd been like baby and posh or something like that.
Sporty spices in the audience, Mel C.
And she's like acting like she didn't know about any of this.
She's like, this is news to me.
Oh, sporty.
Yeah.
Right.
Everybody.
Sparty.
Yeah.
Right.
I'm like, okay, sporty.
Yeah.
Sure.
She's just happy.
She's like lying low.
She's like, don't ask me any questions.
Yeah.
Okay.
Amelia, are you taking this last one?
Okay, yes.
Nicholas Cage got married.
Then he got in old four days later.
Apparently they were in Vegas with his girlfriend.
I don't know if they're together now.
Not anymore.
Well, right.
And he was apparently really drunk.
That feels right.
And they got married.
And now he's claiming like this is a fraud.
She like essentially, you know, forced me to be in this.
marriage. And he wasn't he like in the like Belagio Hotel shouting like she's going to take my money?
And then like they got married. Oh my God. So bad. And then they already have filed. I love this for him. I know. I love this. He's been married three previous times. Yes. And now he's been married four times. And now he is no longer going to be married. We're also going to send our blessings to Nicholas Cage. Yeah. Godspeed. Okay. This next category is not worth the T. Amelia. You go ahead. Okay. So J. Rod. J. Rod. J. Rod. As an A. Rod and Jennifer Lopez.
So apparently he's cheating on her.
Which has been alleged by so many different people in so many different ways.
And it's like apparently it's Jose Konseko's ex-wife.
She denied that.
But he was like, it happened.
And then some like playboy model from London.
A British playboy now.
He was texting me dick pics.
Yeah.
It's really bad.
Obviously none of it's confirmed.
They're still like pushing lov-divvy and stamps.
But you know, we're going to keep an eye on that.
Nobody cheats on J-Lo. That's a shame.
Honestly.
I don't know which one of you cursed Tea Time members put this next one not worth the tea.
This is extremely worth Liz Kelly's tea.
This is about Pete Davidson.
One of these days we're going to do a podcast and not talk about him.
It is not today.
It's not today.
I'm sorry, you can skip that 15 second mark if you don't want to hear this.
But this is important.
This is important.
Okay.
Pete Davidson, I don't know if you recall.
Of course they were called.
We had a Tea Times obsession corner with one single picture.
And it was.
Yeah.
That's embarrassing.
Kanye West, Timothy Shalame, Kid Cuddy, and Pete Davidson, all at a very fancy sushi dinner.
We obsessed over it because we could not believe this group of people was together.
This hit every tea time corner, basically.
Anyway, so then this week, this has come back into the forefront of our lives because Machine Gun Kelly and Pete Davidson just did a video for Vanity Fair.
They did a lie detector test.
A lot of really good stuff in this video.
Oh, I haven't seen it.
It's a goal mine.
Pete Davidson thinks he's more attractive than post Malone.
Pete Davidson
I mean, low bar.
I was going to say.
Okay, relax.
Just kind of a scrubby dude.
And then also Pete Davidson said that
Mullaney is his best friend.
There's like a lot of really good tidbits in here.
Anyway, Machine Gun Kelly asks about
that dinner that we were obsessed with.
And Pete Davidson said that he ended up
paying for it, that poor man.
Because the deal was he thought
it was only dinner with Kid Cutty.
They went to the restaurant.
He put his card down.
And then I don't know how this happens
in this world, but like Timothy Shalamey showed up.
And then Kanye West showed up.
That's how he described it.
He's like, yeah, in the video, he's like,
Shalmay showed up.
And then it was like, oh.
I don't know where these people.
I don't know how this happens or comes together.
Anyway, he ended up paying for this entire fucking dinner.
This poor man.
Kanye West apparently ordered like everything on the menu.
Of course he did.
Ran up that bill.
And then Pete Davidson ended up saying that he had to book two extra gigs in Ohio
to pay for that dinner.
Kanye West, what are you doing?
Pick up the tap.
Or then, though, Pete Davidson, like, two grand.
How hard is that?
Yeah.
Whatever.
Whatever.
Okay.
Next, not worth the tea.
Real quick, I did not see us, but this is on the outline, so I'm going to tell you about it.
Random but kind of fun tidbit.
The twins who played Ross and Rachel's baby, Emma, in Friends.
Yes.
Are in us as the two twin daughters of Elizabeth Bonz's character, which is great, but also leads me to,
so also playing a child on Friends were Colin Dillon Spouse, who have made a weird entry back
into public consciousness this year.
Like they were, like, nobody cared about them for so long.
Speak for yourself, but okay.
Cole Spouse on Riverdale, dating Lily Reinhardt, adorable in like a movie now with
Haley Lou Richardson.
Yeah, which looks bad, but that's fine.
He's in a movie.
Yeah.
And then Dylan Sprouse dating Barbara Palvin, new Victoria's Secret model.
Yeah.
She's an angel now.
Yeah, and he was the one with the long hair for a while, right?
Oh yeah.
And wasn't he like doing tech services like at NYU or something?
Oh, yeah, I hope so.
It was like, he was like website designing her.
something like
Wow.
Well, he doesn't
have to anymore
and I just think
it's really funny
how like just
randomly these two
are like thriving
at the same time.
Also why does Elizabeth
Moss, she doesn't
look old enough to have
two teenage daughters
that's the only thing
I heard out.
I was like God damn it
Hollywood!
Like Elizabeth Moss is in her
30s.
Yeah, that's tough.
These girls are pro up 15 maybe?
Oof.
I mean, yeah.
Anyway, that's a different problem.
That's a large scale
Hollywood problem.
Last thing that's not
worth the T
this is the Jonas
brothers.
I hate that
they are again,
Back in public consciousness, back in the tea time circuit, I never saw this coming.
Suckers, okay.
It's okay, but it's like every other Maroon 5 song I've ever heard in my life.
And every other Jonas Brothers song, I don't know.
Anyway.
So good.
Anyway, continue.
Okay, they posted a video.
They're on some yacht.
They've got cigars in their mouth.
Oh, my God.
Joe Jonas looks like a white Pablo Escobar.
He looks so with this weird mustache.
Jesus.
They're slow dancing to Casey Musgraves' Golden Hour.
which is an amazing song,
and I'm mad at them for, like, ruining that whole moment for me.
And they said, they said, my, oh, first of all,
Joe Jonas, like, screams into the abyss,
and he's like, Miami, it's going to be all right, everybody.
Why?
What?
Like, I have so many questions.
Joe Jonas.
Joe Jonas, stop ruining Casey Musgraze for me.
I will not let you.
He's already ruined.
She tweeted at them and was like, this is my own.
I know.
I don't want to see that.
I know.
I know.
Casey Muskeres, please stop.
Okay.
Okay, this is, T-Time tries their very hardest to relate to other ringer content.
This week was 1999 movies weeks.
We got a bunch of stuff up on the site we broke down, like, I don't know why you said we.
Everybody else who's smarter and a better writer than I am, broke down the 50 top movies of the year in 1999.
The best picks.
Yeah, go ahead.
How old were we in 1999?
I was four.
I was nine.
Oh, thank God.
Okay, good.
I was six.
Okay, I feel better.
So, again, like, we weren't watching these movies in theater, so take this with a grain of salt.
Yes.
Our personal favorite movie is on this.
We had 50 movies, the best movies of 1999.
The best one's on the list.
I have not seen a bunch of these movies.
Right.
Yeah.
That was...
So, I mean, this is Tite Time doing what Tite Time does best,
which is just glancing at something and having some small problem with it.
And arguing their point, my favorite movie of 1999 is 10 Things I Hate About You.
Great choice.
Perfect film.
I thought it was really...
It should have been like top three at least.
I agree.
It was too long.
Yeah, that's...
It was too low.
It's so good.
And also, we brought it.
I brought this up on T-Time, I Instagram, that the top two movies were The Matrix and Fight Club, which are very...
So bro-y.
Broly.
Even though I love The Matrix.
I love that movie.
Okay, what was your favorite movie on that list?
My favorite movie on the list, I love 10 things I hate about you.
And Notting Hill was also pretty high up.
And it's fabulous.
Yeah.
There were a few notable things excluded that we want to talk about.
Amelia had some thoughts.
Oh, my God.
Well, I brought this up to Amanda Dovins, and I love Amanda, but damn, I totally disagree with
never been kissed.
Yeah, we know the Me Too moment happened.
We're happy.
It's problematic.
We get it.
Move on.
It's so good.
It's great.
And also she turns out to be like 30.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And even going beyond the problematic elements,
Drew Barrymore's fabulous that movie.
She's so charming.
Michael Martin.
Extremely underrated love interest.
So attractive.
Yes.
And it's like we meet a young Jessica Alba.
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
David Arquette's in this.
He's funny.
It's like, it's just like a fun movie.
It's great.
Molly Shannon's in it too.
It's just a wonderful movie.
It's great.
Okay.
And then also they miss Drop Dead Gorgeous.
And Amanda was like, that's not a top 50 movie.
And I was like, shut your mouth.
I almost lost it.
Damn.
I disagree.
That movie is 50.
Like I get maybe not top 25, you know, that like second round of it.
But yeah.
Top 50 for sure.
And a lot of people actually like haven't seen this movie.
You should watch it.
It's so funny.
It's just like a, it's a small town in Minnesota.
which I, you know, I mean, I'm not from a small town, but I am from Minnesota, and I just love it.
And Kirsten Dunst, who was like the queen of the late 90s, early odds teen movies, they didn't even
It's disrespectful is what it is.
Yeah, other Kirsten Dunst movie I would have liked to see on this list list is, is the Virgin Suicides.
Again, did you guys watch that movie?
Yes.
I read it in high school and then watched it later.
So good.
Again, Kristen Dunst in that, Josh Hornet's in it.
Hating Christensen is like this cute little cherub in it.
He's like, yeah.
He's really super young.
Well, Amanda said they didn't include it because technically it wasn't released into theaters until 2000.
Yeah, it was like a little loophole.
But if you Google it on the internet, everyone says it was a 1999 movie.
Which means that it's true.
Exactly.
The other thing that happened in 1999 that relates really to tea time is the sexiest man of the year that people does every year.
1999 was Richard Geer.
I have a picture for you guys of that cover.
He was in one-away bride.
This is Richard Geer.
He was obviously the queen of the queen.
He was the queen of the late 90s.
He was in every rom-com.
I find it crazy that he was sexiest man alive this year, and he is fully gray.
These crows feet are fully full.
He's legit old in that picture.
He's like a salt and pepper kind of like older, skewed.
Salton pepper hottie.
And then I was like, this would not fly in 2019.
And then I remember the last three years was Dwayne the Rock Johnson,
Blake effing Shelton.
So it's like, and then Edis Elbow, which is a good decision.
But the last two, I guess you can't really talk.
Also, real quick.
Other heartthrobs from this list
Who would have been sexier than Richard year
Rachel Weiss in The Mummy, all time
Oh my God, gorgeous, yes.
Jude Law in the talented mystery
Which I...
You love Jude Law of him.
My take is that he looks better
in that movie than anyone has ever looked in any movie.
Okay, I disagree because if you go back to
1998, one year before
Leonardo DiCaprio was in Titanic.
We fought about this off-mic.
That changed my life.
That's a real one-two punch.
Keith Ledger, obviously, in 10 things.
I think about you. Hugh Grant and Notting Hill. I didn't get the Hugh Grant thing until I watched
Notting Hill and then I was like, yeah. Yeah, I'm in. There you go. Sarah T. Geller and cruel intentions,
iconic. And then Brad Pitt and Fight Club, obviously. I mean, you can't argue with that.
Okay, this is our last category of the episode. We're always ending with T-Times' most unanswerable
question of the week, and we're staying on theme. We're doing Movies Edition. We have some questions.
If you guys hear these questions and are inspired to answer, we have an official Twitter now
that has like what a whopping 31 followers.
No, I think it's like 20 followers.
Go ahead and follow at T-Time underscore 33.
If you want Liz Kelly to tweet, then you need to follow that account because she's going to tweet from that account.
Yes, this will be my burner.
Won't tweet from her real account.
Agreed.
Okay, so this is Unanswerable Questions Movie Edition.
Amelia, go ahead.
So The Dirt, which is a Netflix movie that premiered last week.
It's not good.
But it's like, I actually enjoyed Pete Davidson in this.
And, thank God.
Yeah.
And Douglas Booth is, he stars as the character Nicky Six, which is based on, it's the story of Molly Crew.
Right.
And what's interesting to me is that he also played Boy George in like a Made for TV British movie.
Yeah.
And so now he's moving up from Made for TV.
Now it's like streaming on Netflix.
Next it's going to be in theaters.
What 80s rock star will Douglas Booth play next in a movie?
You know, it's hard to talk about Douglas Booth without acknowledging his, like, perfect face.
He is pretty.
He's got the bone structure of someone who is not human.
Right.
I highly recommend Googling him.
Yes.
I was looking at pictures of him and trying to, like, match him to, like, an 80s rock star.
Maybe, like, Bon Jovi.
Ooh.
That's a good one.
Also, very attractive.
He's got the hair.
He can wear, like, a wig.
That's actually a really good one.
I can see that.
Also, I find it hard to talk about Douglas Booth without acknowledging his most iconic role in Miley Cyrus's LOL.
Little viewed film, Demi Moore's in it
Watch it
Is that the cyberbullying one?
Yeah.
It's like a horrendous movie.
He's in that.
Yeah.
Tough resume for Douglas Booth.
Agreed.
To be entirely honest.
If he plays and this movie goes to theaters,
he could be, he could pull a Rami.
You're right.
He could.
He could be an Oscar.
Yeah.
Okay.
Next unanswerable question.
This is about our man, Noah Centennial.
We.
A tea time favorite.
to love him. We love to hate him. He's got a new movie coming out on Netflix on April 12 called
The Perfect Date. My unanswerable question is, can Noah Centennial live up to his, to all the
boys I love before, hype? Watch the trailer. It appears to be honestly like plot for plot comparison,
like not as good. Basically, he's playing a man named Brooks Radigan, which is an all-star hot man
name. There's no Peter Kivinsky, but I'll allow it. It's close. Brooks Radigan? Radigan's kind of funny.
Anyway, he wants to go to Yale so bad, but he can't afford it.
He doesn't have a famous parent who can put him on the rowing team.
Exactly.
Anyway, so he offers, he like works in some restaurant and then this like hot, rich, popular guy is like, oh, I got to take my cousin to the dance.
She's going to pay me, blah, blah.
And then he's like, I'll go in your place.
I'll take whatever your cousin to the dance and get paid to then eventually go to Yale.
Anyway, this works so well.
He basically creates an app.
and he goes on all these different dates
with all these different girls
being like the stand-in
which like could you imagine
if you needed a date to a dance
and then you go to this app
and you're like I'll find some random dude
and Noah Centeno shows up on your doorstep
yeah I would download that app
I would pay for that app
right of course he's like stuck between two girls
like his real identity
he likes kind of the like rock or whatever
like unconventional girl
versus like the hot pretty popular girl
played by Cammy Mendez
who I really really
like.
Yeah, she's great.
There's an iconic line in this trailer and it goes, he goes, I've been so many people
these last couple months, a cowboy, an art connoisseur, and a bad friend.
Wow.
The drama!
The drama, you guys, I can't wait.
I felt that right here.
So the pros to this movie is his name is Brooks Radigan.
He's not as self-assured as Peter Kovinsky because Peter Kivinski was like really pretty
full of himself and like guiding her through that movie.
Netflix is obviously going to do him good because it's in their best interest to you.
So the cons is that now we know who Noah Centennial really is.
Honestly, I was still charmed by this.
I went in being like, okay, I'm over Noah Cincinnati.
And then I watched this trailer and I was like, fuck.
He did it again.
He's so funny charming.
I don't want to.
But on the list of like bad people who are famous, he ranks pretty like, he's just dimly.
He's relatively harmless.
He's just a dummy.
And him as Peter Kivinsky, just great.
It's iconic.
It really is.
It is.
Right.
We'll see.
You bet your ass.
Tea Time is watching the perfect
date on April 12th. You're damn right. All right. Last
question. Super quick. Another movie.
The unanswerable question is, why
does Avengers Endgame have to be three hours long?
It was just announced the official runtime, three hours
and two minutes. That's so
out of this world. Okay, my take is
actually that I've devoted so much
of my life to these movies and I personally enjoy them.
I'm in. I'm in for a three hour
movie. You're in for three hours?
I would rather them do it right in three hours
than rush it and be a bad, objectively
bad movie in like two hours.
They've had like
25 movies.
Okay, but they've been doing it
for a full decade.
This is the last one
with this set of characters.
I'm in.
However, an addendum.
As a person with a small bladder
who feels discriminated against
by this runtime,
I have to say,
I'm going to drop some wisdom on you.
Oh, please.
Okay.
You're welcome.
There's a time in every Marvel movie.
It's the perfect time
for a bathroom break.
And it's before the big fight.
There's always a scene
when they're on the fucking plane
or they're like in their headquarters
and they're like sitting down
and they're about to have like a heart-to-heart
or a pep talk.
There's a lot of like intense eye contact and like arm clasping.
I'm clasping arms just to get that point across.
And that's when you go.
Because it's before the shit really happens.
You can just miss like Chris Evans making intense eye contact like maybe some man tears with someone, like some stupid cliched lines.
That's when you go.
And then you're ready for the battle.
And that's how you make it through a three hour marble movie.
I guess it has to be three hours because there are so many A-listers in this that are so huge.
You know that they were like, I need at least X amount of lines or X amount of screen time.
And that's really hard to do.
do honestly with that many people.
It's going to be a lot happening in this movie.
And if you saw, if you've seen, and I haven't really delved very deep into the poster for this
new movie, but the poster for Infinity War, there are so many people.
There were so many names.
And there were so many that freaking Chris Pratt, who's huge, got the, and Chris Pratt.
It's just like, that's crazy.
That's crazy.
There's going to be a lot happening, and you know, you just got to strategize.
My take is you can go to the bathroom whenever Paul Rudd is on screen.
Wow.
Thank you.
Thank you.
We'll circle back to that.
All right.
On that note, we are wrapping up tea time.
Thank you guys so much for listening.
I'm Les Kelly.
I'm Gat Hallow.
And I'm Amelia Wadam.
