Anyway, guys, we're about to get into this wedding, ready for these bells.
Johnny, are you ready to get into this American wedding?
I'm so ready.
Let's walk down the aisle.
Let's do this thing.
It's time to kiss.
Roll the wedding bumper.
There you go.
There you go.
There you go.
Hey.
Oh, my goodness.
Gracious.
American wedding.
Absolutely.
It was an American wedding.
Craig Perry, too.
shouts out. I saw his name come up with
the crisis now. He commented on the American
Pi 2 video. That was
super cool. I mean, you know, I suppose
it could be somebody posing as him, but at the
same time, that was super cool.
Very cool. And, hey, if you're
watching right now, we'd love to hear some more of the
stories from the
sets of these movies. I hope we got more time
to shoot this one.
Oh, man. Johnny Boy. We did it.
We did it. We've come all this
way. We've gone
three movies into this American.
grown up together
graduated high school
we made it
for our first year
college
we did
we became adults
we got married
Johnny
cast list is rolling
so now I'm like
okay so who's gonna be
is there a post credit scene
do they have post credit scenes
I don't think they do
I get the sense
that the Stifler's mom tag
would have been a mid or post credits
moment but they did
it was January Jones
and it's like I show
wow it wow
you know it's funny
I almost said it, too, because I thought, I thought it, because I was like, yeah, she's in first class.
Yeah.
But it didn't, like, fully click for me.
It's so weird.
It's like she looks almost the same.
And yet there's something about her at this age that just didn't click as, like, quite the same person as, like, you know, when she's on Mad Men or yeah, or in the X-Men.
Okay, well, there you go.
January Jones.
Oh, man.
This was great watching American Pie or American Wedding.
That's right.
This is great.
Get it right.
Right, damn it.
This was great watching American wedding.
Before we get into the review, you just want to say,
oh, why don't you go on over to rejectation shop.com
so you can get teas like these, like this,
and then you get your she-jacks.
Hey, oh, they got one just in time for the spooky season.
Ooh, they got sweaters, they got shirts.
Go get your reject nation stuff.
Support your she-jacks.
We're doing good things over there.
John, what did you think, man?
I mean, this was a lot of fun.
This might be the loosest of the three.
It's interesting.
Like, I'm, I feel I'm going to be chewing on this one because it feels maybe the most kind of all over the place of the three in a sense.
I mean, like they're all sort of just, yeah, you're just jumping around in the ensemble and seeing what different relationship and or hijinks, you know, based scenarios people get into.
So, you know, it's not like it's a massive departure from what we've come to expect.
But yeah, I mean, like with the different shooting style, which I did sort of start.
to notice. And I wonder what was maybe else, what else was maybe happening in comedy on TV and in
movies at the time, 2003, this was, right? Because, yeah, I definitely noticed, like, a lot more,
like, handheld stuff and a lot more, like, moving camera, like, a lot of more, like, we got the
cameraman, like, doing a whip pan and, like, following over here. And, and it was interesting. Like,
it just created, like, a slightly different feeling that, uh...
One and two. Yeah. And so I'm still sort of chewing on that. I, I didn't, like, dislike
the, oh, Ron Trost, I got to do a thing with him on Fangoria's blood and guts, if you can find that in the YouTube outer sphere.
But yeah, so you have a slightly different shooting style, which is interesting, which I'm kind of chewing on there.
But yeah, I mean, I feel like this one maybe had the most loose grip on, like, different bits being, like, consistent.
Like, I feel like the first two maybe felt at least throughout a little bit more consistently, like the same movie.
and like one and two really float into each other.
And this one isn't coming as very long after.
It's coming like two or three years after part two.
So, yeah, I'd say it's definitely the loosest.
But, you know, being on this journey with these characters,
like it still at least brought me the fun and the joy of, yeah, like,
we know.
I guess this one feels more like we're doing the game of the franchise, so to speak,
or the game of the franchise is taking form.
And it's like, here are more of the best.
bits that we're going to have to do and hear some more gross out gags, you know, to kind of build
on top of that. But, you know, for the character journey and for, you know, being on the ride and,
you know, getting to know these, this ensemble over these films, like, it still made me happy
by the end. It still, you know, was really fun. And I still, you know, it still brought some of that,
you know, fuzzy feeling that a wedding movie is supposed to have while being, you know, all the
way raunchy and, you know, everything else you've come to.
expect. So like I don't know if I would rank it necessarily above the other two, but I had a good
time watching it still. And like during a marathon, it's not like I would be like skip, you know,
but it does feel maybe a little less sharply defined than the first and second one. But I'd be
curious to hear your thoughts, sir. You know, I really like the first one a lot. I think it's still
probably my favorite because it was this mixture of the raunch and the heart of what these
movies have come to to be you know and we're really becoming dear to the characters to Jim
to Finch and Michelle and yeah Michelle and then our other cast of characters especially as a part two
Michelle yeah especially as a part two for sure and I really like the building of their relationships
and for me this third one was just missing some of that I think the humor was definitely
still there in parts I think for me Finch is still the funniest character of this entire thing
this one didn't have as much of like a consistent sense of heart and like knowingness throughout it was like more comedy in a way it was more comedy I was saying it surprised me by having more heart than I had expected yeah it didn't flow as well for me as far as a story and the heart goes but I think it's the story is still the the comedy is still there I think they really turned up
Stifler a lot in this movie
I think some of his gag works
I don't I think a lot of them didn't work for me
To be honest with you
But I think Finch is still like
A1 for me
And very fun to watch
He's very fun to watch
That actor seems like he's always about to laugh
Yeah I think
And also the
The fact that the other characters were missing
And I think it was
The fact that it's the wedding
And his other friends are missing
And they never address it
It felt very odd to me
And I was like
Why would we know
even like it's like a line like say something with a line that is something like i i think they
did obviously like they did um a lot instead you know or in you know lieu of having those other
people return but it just yeah by virtue of them not being here it is a little you just i think
you just will generally notice the sort of skew in dynamics the change in the ensemble and
yeah yeah but you know i still think it's funny you know i like seeing the progression
of Jim and like
in Michelle's relationship and seeing
the fact that they're now you know
on this next stage of life
and you know that's great that's beautiful
yeah
I think just overall this one did not
work for me as well as the
other two did but I still
enjoy seeing these characters and I know that there's
like another one as as of
recording this there's another one I don't think they were announced
American 5 or anything
which if they do because I know the next one's called
American Reunion I think
if they do make a fifth one, it's called American
Funeral.
They go to Stifler's Mom's Funeral.
Stiffler's Mons' Funeral or Jim's Dad's Funeral.
Oh, no.
That makes me sad.
He'll be the movie a little bit, but then, yeah.
He'd be the thing that unite all of them back together.
But yeah, this movie was definitely different stylistically
from the other two.
And it still had that raunch that we come to know and love.
Jim's dad is always great.
Finch is always great.
I wish Kevin had more to do.
Kevin was supportive friend, and that's great.
I'm happy he has a friend like that.
And I wonder, like I wonder what the circumstances were
because they even have that moment where he's about to give the speech
and they like, you know, they make the joke.
They subvert it by commenting on it and he doesn't make the speech.
But part of me then is like, well, his presence generally feels sort of reduced anyway.
I wonder if he was like, I don't want to make you speeches this time.
It's like Shannon Elizabeth's going to get naked in the second.
second movie and he was like, I don't want to give any more
rousing speeches. Yeah,
they mentioned the fact they had a girlfriend but they never even
showed. They had a girlfriend and they alluded
to the fact that him and Tara
would be together again at the end of
the second one. Yeah. So I wonder if there's like
some major rewrite so they couldn't like get
any like get the contracts together. Yeah,
I'm just very curious. That's the feeling I walk away
from. Yeah. Well,
and this one would have been made I feel like
when the when the franchise
was sort of probably gathering, it's
or still on the momentum of like we
a successful part two now we're going into part three so i can imagine also the um it's called the
friend of them went to think the gay bar who was the waiter was also great he was a great addition
yeah he was really fun and and i mean i think that's i think that plot line kind of speaks to like
how the movie feels there you go yeah that's right oz um but what years okay so yeah we went from
99 2001 to 2003 so yeah like they were really pushing these out at the time and i would have to
imagine that
I don't know
like some of the other
supporting actors probably
had other jobs or opportunities
and probably were at
places in their careers to be like
I won't come back and do the three
we'll go do some other opportunity
is kind of what my guess would be
just given again for a lot
of these actors I would have to imagine
you know this is
something of a launch pad
for them but also maybe
I don't know I
I mean, some people seem like they got more opportunities outside of this than others.
But, yeah, I thought the guy, the bear guy, like, I think that speaks to kind of how this movie felt overall is like they come up with the plan to go get the dress that Michelle wants.
They fly or they, you know, drive three hours to go there.
Okay, so we're on the wedding plot.
And then they're like, okay, we have this convoluted scenario through which we have to contact the person to actually make the dress.
And we have to charm them or gain their approval in order to do that.
And then from there it becomes, you know, like a cartoon.
And like this has always been a heightened world.
But it's like, you know, okay, we got to get the dress.
Okay, well, the dressmaker's place is closing it.
We've got to find the designer.
Okay, well, now we're having a dance off.
And, you know, we're not realizing we're in a gay bar.
So we're doing a bunch of these jokes.
Now we're having a dance off.
And then the dance off just kind of works.
And now the bear character is just here for the rest of the movie, has just sort of joined
the ensemble, which I
it handled it
like the looseness was still
fun and funny, but it is sort of very
it didn't feel as like
thought out so as
to be like sensical as it
would have in the previous two. Whereas this one
it's like, okay, we have this convoluted mission
to go on and now it's becoming
a trope, the dance off
and now we have this fun character
to go along with who's going to segue us into
another, you know, like, kooky hijinks
bit, but then who will also just kind
be here and be a supportive character.
And a lot of stuff like that happens.
Or like Stifler is a football coach.
And like it sort of factors in.
And it's like interesting, you know, flavor for a couple of scenes.
But it's not like fully plugged in the whole time.
Like, you know.
They reduce the heart and up to the gags.
Like stuff like that.
All of them really worked.
But you know, yeah.
It's like stuff like that in the previous movies, I feel like would feel like it exists once we cut away from it.
And here things mostly felt like they existed when we were cut to it.
Whereas, like, the rest of the time, the football thing didn't even feel like it existed unless we were cutting to, like, a scene on the football field.
When he did that thing at the end, I was like, oh, that's right.
He's a coach now.
And that, I thought, was, like, a funny opportunity to do, like, a rousing speech that they, you know, they kind of set that joke up and moved on.
But, yeah, it's like, I, there was not a lot that I outright disliked or anything like that.
And I think a lot of the bits and gags were charming.
but yeah it's just like the most loose
and like tenuously tied together
in terms of like all the bits and stuff
yeah yeah I can definitely say that
yeah I think I'm very curious
to know like the BTS of the movie
and like what was happening behind the scenes
that led to this movie being made
because I have some questions
interesting well here's the one
for your very first question off the dome
Chris Klein getting a little trivia
stated in an interview
with Huff Post that Oz, Vicky, and Heather
were not considered for the movie.
What?
And that he didn't reprise,
refused to reprise his role as many believe.
Wow.
What the fuck?
He was part of the group.
He was one of his friends.
That's so weird.
That's so weird, dude.
This franchise has sort of become,
I'm having a great time.
This has become the franchise of like,
everything I think is the case is apparently not the case.
Everything I'm like, well, this couldn't have been in the theatrical cut.
Everyone's like,
that's that is in fact that's the main part i remember the extra you know it seems like he left i just
imagined because like okay so i was wrong the first two movies at least the first one right is the fact
that there is these different all of these characters have these different perspective
or these different uh experience based around the same premise right yeah the first one was like
okay we all got to get laid and then one of them gets to a relationship one of them's trying to get laid
and then other one has like a legacy formed around him and then there's fucking there's a
Shermanator. And the second one has like a different one, but it's still sort of a similar
thing. And I feel like if we were to have kept that kind of heart meets raunchyness thing
going, like Oz and his girlfriend could have been like the married couple. They could have been
like the future version of like what Jim and, um, what's her name? Michelle. Michelle. Or they
could be like, oh. And Michelle could have been more of a character too. Well, and or you could do something
like where you have Oz and Tara Reed
or no Oz and Mina Savari
and like they're together but they're like
oh damn I didn't think Jim would beat us to getting married
and then they have some sort of like
what do we actually want to because in the second movie
we thought they would break up and they didn't like
you know there's there was interesting stuff to do there
and I do agree like as much as I did
still have fun and enjoy
I do feel like this has less of
and I don't even think it's bad that like all the characters
are helping out Jim's
wedding, but it did, it was still an ensemble movie, but it, yeah, it didn't feel as much
like we were jumping around to each of the different characters, each fully submerged
into kind of the same situation.
It felt like Jim was kind of in his situation, and good for Jim, that, like, most of the crazy
shit in this movie wasn't his fault or, like, that humiliating on his account specifically.
But, you know, it's like, you've got kind of Jim over here, and then you've got Stifler,
and then you've got kind of everybody else.
and uh and was yeah stuff for had more screen time than jane and michelle and it's like it's called
american wedding they're the two on the front of the cover yeah michelle is kind of barely a character
in this movie and i feel like she had more to do and more screen time in the last movie than she did in her
own wedding movie that is fair yeah yeah i like i thought her presence was very charming i thought the
moments with her they're supposed to make you feel fuzzy and emotional like yeah it's like she's
great and the moments she appears are great uh and they you know get your super awkward gag out of
way in the beginning of the movie but yeah like less time spent with her character less time
spent from like the bride's perspective uh so to speak which was kind of a neat thing about the first
movie was that even though it was from the perspective mostly of you know your core group of guys
you still had like what the girls were going through and you still like got enough you know
the perspective was omnipotent enough that you could cut away from the boys perspective get
what the girls are going through and how they're coming of age two, at least a little bit.
I like the rounded nature of the sex comedy, and I feel like that was kind of pulled away from this one.
Yeah, that's what helped to elevate the first one, whereas this is more like a bunch of wacky stuff.
And certainly some things that we predicted to happen didn't happen.
And I think that it could have gone, I often think of the Hangover Three in terms of movies where you took a character, everybody thinks is really funny and is a, you know,
one of the more, you know, in the group of guys,
Stiffler is obviously like the comedy punchline character.
Yeah, he's the Allen.
And then in part three,
the hangover,
they make Allen like the main character.
And it's like,
to me,
it was quite incessant and a great illustration of like how a character
is designed to work in small doses
and is quite difficult to make work in large
and even,
you know,
like protagonist's science.
doses and here
like Stifler maintains his
stiffleriness. I feel like you felt like a
caricature of Stifler in the first. He's
certainly a cartoon but I
at least didn't
find his increased focus
and presence like aggravating
or like man you really
lost the charm
of this character
and I think they easily could
have and I feel like some people probably watch
this in do feel that they did
but yeah it's like even though
he is cartoonier than a lot of the rest
of the characters in the movie
and even though his
screen time is elevated
it still was pretty funny and it still
worked and good
like that's the thing I think I think
it's like despite the aspects of this
that like aren't as smooth and well
sort of
you know
put together as the first couple
like everybody it's
it's it's
thrives on the charm
I think it's like instead of the heart
it has some heart
But it doesn't have as much hard as the first one or even the second quite throughout kind of permeating.
I feel like those movies have this sort of, or they gave me this sense of like, I feel like whoever wrote this is kind of, even though there's a lot of gross out humor and there's a lot of cringe and there's a lot of characters who are mean to each other for fun, there was still like a knowing kind of quality, like almost like a big brotherly quality, sentimentally speaking.
about those movies.
Whereas here, yeah, I feel like
less consistently the heart
peeking through and more the charm.
Like there's still some...
Who's really missing?
Casey Affleck.
I'm surprised that we never...
Yeah, I mean, you know,
and it's interesting too
because the second one, you know,
when something's becoming a franchise,
you're like, okay,
we're witnessing the formation
of the repeat gags.
And yeah,
then this one now is sort of an interesting beast
because it's like half the things are back
and that includes the gags.
It's like you get half
the repeat gags and then just you know some other additional gags but yeah it's sort of like oh
interesting yeah i thought that that would be somebody we call i didn't even thought of it until now
but like with finch and what he's going through and like the whole stifler and the bridesmaids
and cadence or whatever her name is yeah you would think that they would have some reason to bring
him in i don't know why they by this account they probably just didn't ask you know if you're
a uh craig perry if you're watching let us know uh on the first
American Pie film 1999.
Eugene Levy was only required for three
days of filming. For this sequel
he was on set for 35
days. Wow. That's like about
the length of the first... Oh, no, no, no, no.
How many...
Math aside. Yeah, that's a
that's like a full-ass shoot right there. That's a whole
month and change. Not bad,
Eugene. And I mean, he's not even
on screen. I know he's in like a lot of
group shots probably, but he's not
even on screen dadding
a ton. But he's always
It's great.
That's great.
It's great to have them.
Yeah.
This is the only film this series where the guys aren't seen eating at dog ears.
That's right.
The closest reference to the eatery is when Stifler is seen drinking from a dog years cup at the sporting good store.
Oh, damn, should have caught that.
In a deleted scene, Jim explains Oz's absence from the wedding, saying he was still in Spain with Heather, another absent character.
I would have liked that.
I could have used that, maybe.
Ooh.
Jim, here's one.
at an hour, three minutes and 28 seconds
into at least whatever cut
IMDB is referring to.
When Jim is shaving his area
is actually Eddie K. Thomas's feet in the shot.
He's the foot stand-in.
So, yeah.
So all you finch foot fans,
you know where to look.
Out of all the characters are missing from the film,
Nadia is the only one who received
an honorable mention. That's right. They did mention
her by name. Wow, not bad.
Sean William Scott's agent
were reluctant to show the script
to the actor,
certain he would turn it down.
Turns out they were worried for nothing
because after he read it,
he agreed to do the movie.
A huge part.
I'm surprised he would even consider that.
I'm fascinated as to like,
I would love to know more about this fact
because I'm like,
yeah,
why would they be afraid?
Like, was he secretly,
is he secretly one of those actors
who's like classically trained
and behind the scenes
has a British accent
and is like,
I just want to be doing it.
in King Lear, you know?
Like,
I'm like, why would you, I'm surprised, it's all.
The first and only American Pie film to not, oh, I guess that's a spoiler.
Whoops.
Uh-oh.
But anyway, you know, I'm not going to read the full list, but clearly characters didn't return.
The scene where Jim is thanking the guys for everything toward the end of the movie was shot in two different locations.
The shot of Finch, Kevin, and Stifler with the building behind them was shot in Los Angeles.
in the shot of Jim
and the country club
in the background
was shot in
Half Moon Bay.
Wow.
Not bad.
All right.
All right.
In the scene
where Michelle hits her head
under the table
while she is
assisting Jim
in the opening scene,
Alice and Hannigan
was actually using her hand
to make the bump noise,
but after 30 takes,
she couldn't do it anymore
due to her hand
was in pain
and getting very swollen.
The crew wound up giving her
a rubber mallet
to make the hits on the table.
That's some movie
magic for you.
And apparently Bob Dylan's son directed the movie.
What?
Director Jesse Dillon, the son of legendary singer, Bob Dylan.
Well done, Jesse Dillon.
I've seen this guy's face before even.
He looks like another person.
That's crazy.
That's crazy.
He also directed How High with Method Man and Red Man.
Let's do this.
Jim's dad's first name was never quite defined as it was never used in the bonus footage
where the writer explains some unanswered questions.
He invents a name for Tim's dad calling him Bullwinkle.
That's so funny.
That's good.
That's good.
And it's the first movie in the series where the Miltz guys,
John Cho and Justin Isfeld, are addressed by name,
and they just gave the characters their names.
They're just John and Justin apparently.
Oh, goodness.
Are there any other good ones?
There are any other good ones?
Let's see.
in the event that some or even none of the major players
would commit to appearing in the film that writer Adam Hertz
was prepared to retail the screenplay
as a more conventional wedding romantic comedy
and probably give it.
Oh, there was a great fact of it.
I think it was like the first one called like low,
it was called like low budget teen comedy
that you probably hate reading
that will make you a lot of money or something like that.
So you can just retitle it like an untitled
teen wedding movie or young 20 something
wedding movie
uh yeah
damn
interesting stifler's presence in the film
I don't know how Andrew and Roxy just do this
in a way that's like completely just like
wow the dog turd was made of Plato
that's a good one I wonder what that was
and it's also released the film in the year
2003 when Allison Hannigan got married so there he go
had to make it extra weird in real life to be like I'm
preparing for her to marry Jason Biggs on screen
but also I'm marrying my own husband in real
life.
Stifler's presence
in the film
was considerably
beefed up
as Sean Williams
Scott had
mentioned in
interviews following
American Pie
2 that he
wasn't
convinced about
returning to
the franchise
so I guess
they beefed
him up
to convince him
to come back
yeah the
extended
unrated party
edition of
American
wedding was
thought of
since early
development of
the film
the filmmakers
got together
in the script
phase
figuring out
if they can
shoot additional
scenes that
won't make
the cut
some additionally
Ranshi
Bachelor Party
footage
was shot
exclusively
for the
unrated
DVD, one of those shot
for the unrated version of American Wedding was apparently
so great. They actually
put it in the theatrical cut of the movie.
And one thing I have learned from listening
to enough commentaries
is that probably in doing that
they probably got to keep more than they would have if they
hadn't shot that stuff. I bet they
like oftentimes
a filmmaking hack
will be people will be like, just make this
crazier than we intended
to use. And so
they'll be like, cut those things out. And
then we'll get back to like kind of what we were hoping for you know um so for all you
overshoot and then trim later apparently this also has two locations in common with frailty
the uh the uh oh god the guy bill paxton film from 2001 the huntington library and botanical
gardens which is a beautiful place to go yeah and 101 south glassell both uh filming
see filming locations for both movies
for details. That means we could go there.
We could get the details and go!
Yeah, yeah.
Well, gang. Oh, and also, final fact.
This is the first film,
not to figure your blink 182 on the soundtrack.
Wow.
Look at there.
Look at that.
Look at that.
Well, gang, we've made it.
We're three quarters of the way through
the main canonical American pie films.
We are.
We're three films in, and, oh, sorry.
It's all good.
And yeah, this has been great.
I'm having a great time watching.
watching them and I look forward to watch the next one.
Absolute podcast.
All right.
With that, we look forward to seeing you guys in the next one.
Yeah.
All right.
Duce megoose.
Duce.
You know who I would love to have in my American wedding?
Who's that?
David Gandy.
I was thinking that.
David Gandy.
He would play us some good old Trumptrients.
Yes.
But I want.
On the trumpet.
On the trumpet.
Oh my God.
David Gandy on the trumpet.
But the trumpet.
best trumpeter
Oh my god
Ask anyone they'll tell you
I would love David
I wish David had married me
Instead of Andrew Gordon
That would be great
Because he's also
He's like Jim's dad
He would have some sage advice
To give you
Who is Jim
Is Jason Biggs
Is Jim Jim's dad is Eugene Levy
The most beloved
Character in the franchise
I think most people know
Jason Biggs or Jim
If you say the word
Dad
In relation to American Pie
People will immediately think
of Eugene Levy
Will they think.
And now they'll think of David Gantt.
I don't think David Gandy even watches these movies.
I think he's secretly only one.
I can't this franchise.
David Gandy.
All 20 American Pie.
David Gandy's character in the American Pie movies would be like that none who walks by when a dirty deed is happening.
He's like, oh heavens.
And then Jason Biggs covers up his crotch or something.
Yes, absolutely.
David Gandy is.
He's not, he's not someone who's going to watch American.
No, he's far from it.
Holesome guy.
He's far from it.
I take it all back, you know?
He's far from it.
I've tried pulling out the raunch out of David and nothing's happening when I talked to him.
Could you send back those chaps?
We'll put them to good use elsewhere.
Please.
Let me send back my flashlight.
I've been looking for it.
Yes.
And my flashlight, because it's been hard to see at night and I blend it to you a long time ago.
Just get to send us a care package, would you?
Let's see if YouTube reviews this and gives us a support.
Pass. I was going to say you guys.
