Starting point is 00:03:21 No more than a hundred of your nieces and nephews. All right, let's, before this buck and bronco gets away on us, lads, let's address the elephant in the river. room we've just watched you're mixing metaphors all over the place yeah well they're all
Starting point is 00:03:34 animals and they're all angry we've watched sex in the city too guy and I for the 16th time Joseph I believe for the one and a half one and a half
Starting point is 00:03:42 well I half watched it through with my ears was the listen to it there's a term for that listen to it actually you guys hold on watch something with your ears
Starting point is 00:03:52 what's that cool you know how we normally do things like other people do things let's do things the opposite to that okay plug your podcast first
Starting point is 00:04:02 and then we'll talk about the movie okay go well we do a podcast called Cheap Tuesday where we watch a movie each week and talk about it the way that you guys do it's a different movie though it's and we go the
Starting point is 00:04:17 we've really pussied out yeah and come with a different movie and go to them at the movies and spend a lot of money and that's why you guys are great and little bitches but still great thank you It's an honour to be here
Starting point is 00:04:32 This week On our one we went to see Entourage Which I noticed So many similarities Between that and this movie That we've just watched now Yeah Should we just rip in?
Starting point is 00:04:43 Nick are you ready to compare Entourage to Sex and City too? Should we really date stamp this thing And date it horribly By just talking about a movie That's just come out They find this one And a time caps you'll in space
Starting point is 00:04:55 They'll know exactly when we were talking about They'll be like bam Gosh your motherfucker It's when the entourage movie came out. Well, there are a lot of similarities. Definitely, entourage, you know, stars four hateful men. Yeah. And this movie stars for hateful women.
Starting point is 00:05:13 Do you hate all the guys in entourage? I remember my entourage being fun, though, as the TV says. Yeah, but the worst kind of fun. Bad fun. Bad fun. What's bad fun? No, no, I think I would say entourage is objectively more fun. Oh, more fun.
Starting point is 00:05:28 than sex and the city but surely that's just because you're a bloke mate it's all the girlfriend to a wives I'm talking about the book I don't watch the TV series you're right of Sex and City or of Entourage you watched Entourage did you enjoy it?
Starting point is 00:05:42 Yeah but then like I enjoyed it in that hindsight of being like oh God I wish I didn't watch that hold on let's time travel put yourselves back into the place of we're just you actually because I'm only talking to Nick right now of the moment
Starting point is 00:05:56 did you enjoy Entourage as it was unfolding. I enjoyed it and like it was a time when I was sort of coming to know myself a bit better and I
Starting point is 00:06:04 enjoyed it as a coming of age tale tell me more I enjoyed what my life would be like I was a real like I really now I love sex
Starting point is 00:06:13 with everyone me and Guy were watching stand by me and you were watching entourage and it shaped the human beings
Starting point is 00:06:19 we are I think there's a point where I realized the entourage was terrible a lot of people in our generation it was really
Starting point is 00:06:26 good realization for me we start You know, we started watching Entourage around the same time we started buying shirts with buttons. I really thought you were going to say masturbating there because I saw your mouth making an M sound. I'm buying shirts with buttons, you know? Buying shirts with buttons. Seminal stage in your life.
Starting point is 00:06:42 Yeah. You're like, hey, I've got a shirt with buttons. Yeah. Watch out. What would that mean? What's happening when you're putting on your shirt with buttons? You're on the prow. You're into town.
Starting point is 00:06:50 Yeah. You're looking for trouble is what you're doing. Mm-hmm. Isn't it? It's not ironic. You dress up to get down. Yeah. Isn't that crap?
Starting point is 00:06:57 Has that even struck you? Isn't life just a topsy-turvy place? Oh, it's a wonderful thing. Wonderful thing. Your ups are up and your downs are ups. But let's not talk about entourage too much because the movie we just saw wasn't entourage. Please, please just let's stop. So like, I mean, first of all, first impressions.
Starting point is 00:07:14 Nick, I'm going to start with you, even though you've just been talking. I would say it is, yeah, the length. It is ponderously, unavoidably. is one of the longest things I've ever sat through and it's not just long in length although it is that which is the main way of measuring length
Starting point is 00:07:37 however I didn't realize there are other ways to me but like every scene ends like every shot someone will say their line and then the camera will linger on them too long like it's the first
Starting point is 00:07:51 it like it's this is the block edit that the editor is gone all right this is how the film stacks up and now I wait for the director to come in and we'll tighten it up and then he never came never showed up you could drive a truck through the lines
Starting point is 00:08:07 like in between them saying yeah especially some scenes some pranks there's bloody driven a truck right square through two actors oh yeah we've told all of our listeners not to watch the movie so they don't know this but we've there's a lot of trucks in the movie where they drive them in between
Starting point is 00:08:21 like Miranda and Carrie there's a line and then a truck and in another line, literal metaphor. It's crazy. Gracefully step aside and a truck will come through. It's amazing they think it was some close calls. Some of the trucks. Well, you didn't see Joseph at one thing where a guy gets hit.
Starting point is 00:08:36 And that's how good the stunties are. They make it look like it's a close call, but it's never really a close call. And guys, we don't, I don't know if you do this every time of the podcast, but I wouldn't feel like I'm going on without just giving a shout out to the family of the Stunty who. We do. We do. I don't listen to every episode. I'm sorry, so you don't. We pour out some of our drinks.
Starting point is 00:08:54 I believe it was when Just gobble up that mic Gobble it up I believe it was when Samantha said Lawrence of my labia And then the truck comes through And hits that extra They used the Wilhelm scream
Starting point is 00:09:07 I believe That's correct, I'll tell I'm bad at doing the impression But yeah You get it Yeah yeah You sounded like a farm animal It was odd in the movie
Starting point is 00:09:20 How they played it for laughs though Because a real man died And then they kind of cut like to an individual shot of each woman They do a lot of shit like that though Joseph You may have noticed they use a satire To very racist and comical effect In the movie as well
Starting point is 00:09:33 They provide a lot of musical cues You were quick to pick up on this Okay here's the I'm without just talk about whatever No absolutely no under no circumstance Shall we talk about whatever I don't know if you notice how much whiskey I've had bro But I'm pretty sure
Starting point is 00:09:45 There's no rules to this one Musical cue observation number one Hit me Whenever Carrie walks It's like she is magical for with each step comes a twinkle, you know, that suggests she has, I'm going to say, fairy godmother powers. Like a shimmering musical twinkle. Yeah. What is that called?
Starting point is 00:10:10 What is that like a chimes? Yeah, a bit of chimes, a bit of ding-dong. Ding-dong chimes? Yeah. You're supposed to be the music man. The ding-dong is a separate instrument from chimes. Yeah, yeah. What's the ding-dong sound like, guy, real quick.
Starting point is 00:10:22 It sounds similar to chimes. That's why it's so commonly confused. Actually, ding-dong is on a matter of payer. I don't know if you. It's like a crow. You know how it crow-crows? Yep. Ding-dong ding-dongs.
Starting point is 00:10:36 I'll hear it. When I say the word ding-dong, that is the sound of ding-dong. Oh, I'm sorry, you're doing it already. Yes. Oh, I beg your button, I was missing it. It's just so good. You just weave it in. Anyway, I believe she has mystical abilities,
Starting point is 00:10:49 which are not explicitly shown in the film. Now, Jay, let me throw this out of you guys, a little bit of a theory. Okay. Do you think those magical abilities exist before or solely after she puts the hat on at the gay wedding? Oh, before. They're there. So it permeates the entire film. She was born with it.
Starting point is 00:11:08 You know, you don't, you don't, it's not magical shoes. It's not like Mike. You know, like Mike? Lil Balow has magic shoes that makes him good at basketball. It's not like that. She has a magic. I think she's born, like. Of all of the examples he could have picked, I'm glad you went with like Mike.
Starting point is 00:11:23 Thank you. It's way to not alienate any person listening to the podcast. Because everyone's seen like Mike is from Trunce. It was a very popular movie. Everyone saw it. I think it's pretty clear that when she puts on that headdress. It's called, she refers to it as a hat. Well, it's not a...
Starting point is 00:11:43 I mean, a hat is to cover your... Well, hat looks like a hat. It would be closer to a visor than a hat. But it's not a visor either because it doesn't cover her eyes. It's like a belt for a head. It's a crown, realistically. Oh, it's a crown. Okay.
Starting point is 00:11:59 Yeah. When she puts on the crown... The crown's like a whole belt. Say that again, what's that? No, it's a crown. There's clearly some sort of foreshadowing happening there. And I kind of feel like it's some sort of curse that it like maybe a witch or like an evil gypsy is put... Like it may be in a gemstone in the crown.
Starting point is 00:12:19 Sure. It's slowly working its way into a body, causing her to lose. control over where she puts her passport. Yes. Yes, I'm glad you've struck into that. Which is, of course, the driving the driving plot of the movie.
Starting point is 00:12:35 Well, of that act. It's the one time something's gone, goes wrong. I'm sorry, a plot is when you, someone does something once and then at the end of the movie they come back to the same spot and just solve that problem.
Starting point is 00:12:48 That's what a... A plot is when a series of seemingly unconnected events happen in a row in a few different locations Here's what I'm going to do Right Here's what I'm going to do
Starting point is 00:12:59 If I may I'm going to throw it over To you too Okay To Nick Sampson And to Joseph Moore To explain to me What the plot
Starting point is 00:13:08 Of Sex and the City 2 is And you've got limited time To do it I'm pulling off my wrist botch So I can take care of this You've got a maximum of three minutes And I want you to describe The movie you've just seen
Starting point is 00:13:18 Okay Because It's an exercise And recall and in brevity of taking something that took over two and a half hours to watch I want you to boil it out three minutes are you ready if you're not familiar with the word brevity it is to be succinct you could say this podcast is brevity in action I would just like to interject you have something to say on the
Starting point is 00:13:47 matter no no but that you know we will be brief okay yes we've left brief. Okay. I'll kick us off. In the same way, we have not taken much time to define brevity. We demand the same of you. Gentlemen, your time starts now. We hear a familiar beat. What's that?
Starting point is 00:14:07 Pianos mixed in with drums. Oh, it must be Jay-Z's Empire State of Mind. The song plays as the Warner Bros. in H-B-O logos play on screen. But are they normal logos? No, they sparkle. Sparkle with diamonds. Why? Because
Starting point is 00:14:22 we are not in our world. We are in the world of New York where the girls of sex in the city to live. All right, Nicky, you keep it going. Hey, it's Carrie, what's up? It's me right now, now in 2011, but also way back in the 80s, I
Starting point is 00:14:38 was a lot different, but still the same. Hey, we're all mates. Anyway, my friend who presumably is in the TV series, is getting married. Hey. Oh, hello. I'm a man standing on a desert. Wait a minute I have to go to a gay wedding quickly
Starting point is 00:14:56 Okay you quickly go Can I go Can I just put your phone down for a second Yes yes I'm gonna go to this wedding Okay comment Over and over and over How gay this wedding
Starting point is 00:15:06 Should hold on shoot shoot Let's talk about the movie Real bravely I'm at the wedding Okay Gay gay gay this is a very gay wedding This is a very gay wedding Hello welcome to the wedding
Starting point is 00:15:14 I'm a stereotype I feel like I've seen how gay The wedding is Oh I'm gonna leave now Okay Right Hello Oh, you're still there?
Starting point is 00:15:24 How's the wedding? Um, okay. Uh, so what are you up to? Oh, well, I'm standing in the desert, and I'm shooting a poster for a movie that we all... Oh, shooting a poster for a movie? That sounds like a normal thing to have to do. We don't have green screen, you see, in our studio. I don't even know what that is, so I don't know why you bring that out.
Starting point is 00:15:43 Hey, I digress. You digress. Well, we're on digressing. My friends are going crazy. Hey, hey, careful with your passport. Should I come to Abu Dhabi? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I'm a step ahead.
Starting point is 00:15:59 You'll quickly come to Abu Dhabi, but when you're here, be careful about your passport. I feel like you've done talking. You're barely in this movie. Hey, we're in Abu Dhabi. Oh, this plane was magnificent. Oh, look at all this food.
Starting point is 00:16:13 Look at all these penises. That's my passport. You dropped it. No, actually, I never mentioned that. Oh. Oh, there's your passport. I'm worried about my nanny's breasts. Hey, they sure are big.
Starting point is 00:16:28 Let's go. This is Cameltoe. Hey, we should leave now. Hey, I'm a nice gentleman walking down the street. You want to smooch? Okay, but then I'm going to tell my husband about it. He's going to be sad in a big building. Oh, hey, it's Carrie's husband here.
Starting point is 00:16:51 What do you got? You got smooching? any old man Wow You weren't doing it You were too busy Watching your films Black and white and otherwise
Starting point is 00:16:59 You know I love Black and White movies And time Well done It was either three or four I don't know I'm not wearing my digital watch I gotta say
Starting point is 00:17:08 Because Virtually no one who's listening With this Has seen sex in the city too What you just listed It's just Devolved into a series of buzz words
Starting point is 00:17:18 That you remembered From like I don't know I thought they did a good job I feel kind of broken after this movie I feel like they kind of If you listen back to that Summary of the film
Starting point is 00:17:28 That was like one in the morning right Yeah, I know it's one in the morning That was, it is I'm very tired I just said that was It's way after one in the morning It's like closer to two Okay
Starting point is 00:17:38 It's 20 to 2 A.m. It's not important What the hour is Did we miss anything? No, absolutely not I mean the one thing that you missed was that you ran out of time
Starting point is 00:17:49 to quickly resolve the one issue in the film which is that as you pointed out Carrie Smooch is a guy she sees in the souk which is an Abu Dhabi marketplace where you buy spices
Starting point is 00:18:01 and leave your passport and buy shoes at and then it's fine yeah they sort it out they go back there it's rare out of it for Christ's sake it's totally fine
Starting point is 00:18:09 I've had stuff going missing in a marketplace would you have missing an ice cream salesman stole my wallet in Kuala Lumpa
Starting point is 00:18:18 really well fucking how about that no you know what but that's best life you know, and I went back and it was gone. Here's some notes that I took. That's a real story. Make that into a movie, yeah, guys.
Starting point is 00:18:27 Where would probably be a more engaging film than Sex and the City, too. What else did you get up to in Kuala Lumpur? I went to a swimming pool. That sounds like a pretty... We've got a sequel in the works. Yeah, don't waste it all in one movie. No, the first one is you losing the wallet. It's a saga.
Starting point is 00:18:42 Here are the notes. A real-time movie of you going to the swimming pool and then losing your wallet at the market. Real time. I'll pay $25,000. You're an idiot. You're a full guy. Yeah, well, that's why you're never going to own a house. All right.
Starting point is 00:18:57 Here are the notes that I've taken through the course of the film. Number one, why has no one called Big JJ? He announces his name at the wedding as John James. John James Preston. What about Big Jay? Big J's even better than JJ. No, then you're wasting a whole J. That's crazy talk.
Starting point is 00:19:21 Have you got two J? consecutively as an option that is pretty much the angle you should be pursuing in your name. I always thought as a child JJ was one of the coolest. It really is a nickname
Starting point is 00:19:34 you could get. Those are two eight point consonants one two. What are you talking about eight points? Scrabble. Oh right, Jesus.
Starting point is 00:19:44 All right. There's a 16, 16.2 letter name. You can't use proper nouns and scrabble though, my friend. You can't have a new version of Scrabble. Fuck off.
Starting point is 00:19:53 Yeah, man. Yeah, that's one of the... There's like a classic rule though. Nah. What? There's no longer Scrabble
Starting point is 00:19:59 at that point. You can play like Beyonce and stuff. That is bullshit. You can play as Beyonce. Yeah. That's no longer Scrabble. Well, no,
Starting point is 00:20:08 it's dress-ups, but... If you play as Beyonce, you don't have time for Scrabble. Scrabble out of my house. It's a very immersive experience if you play as Beyonce. Here's my second... You inherit her entire career.
Starting point is 00:20:21 Did it? A lot of responsibility. Did you know? IMDB won't tell you about the movie. Guy and I will, because we've seen it 16 times now. Did you know? In one scene in the film, in Abu Dhabi, in the hotel, they swapped out Tilda Swinton for Cynthia Dixon or Nixon.
Starting point is 00:20:39 Can't remember the name of the actress. I really got caught up on this moment. Well, it was not as to every week. No, no, no. Well, this is... But she kind of looks like her for the whole movie. I don't know why this seems... Especially when she's not wearing makeup.
Starting point is 00:20:52 Well, it's not even anything to do with especially. The fact of the matter is it was a failed viral marketing attempt by Michael Patrick King and SJP who is getting a producer on the movie is they got Tilda Swinton for a cameo and they said
Starting point is 00:21:06 Tilda we want to do something different with it we want it to be organic we want to be viral we're going to put you in the movie as one of the characters People say viral in 2011 Absolutely constantly The time we know already saying in 2010
Starting point is 00:21:20 That's when they're really saying in 2010 That's when it's when it started Anyway, Tilda, you know what she's like She's really into virality Really into online currency Really into monetizing You know content She said yes, they did it
Starting point is 00:21:36 No one knows, to this day We're lifting the lid It's a hidden cameo One of the only hidden cameos in the history of Hollywood The third night I've written on my hand It appears to be the word Runneling Which last time I checked
Starting point is 00:21:53 This isn't a word Are you in a L-I-N-G What do you think I was trying to communicate To myself Runnelina That's impossible to say mate I would like to talk about The fact that Mr Big
Starting point is 00:22:04 Is colourblind Well then please Take us away So Mr Big One of his great character traits Is that he likes to watch Black and White movies
Starting point is 00:22:18 Which is such a vague thing, right? Yeah, it's like, I love black and white movies. It's like, that's a lot of movies. You got to immediately go, why? You got to ask the question. On the whole, not very good. You got to dig in there. That was before we'd really mastered how to do movies.
Starting point is 00:22:36 Yeah, exactly. A lot of those don't have audio. You got to dig around. Mr. Big. Yeah. He likes the movies, not the talkies. But then later on, caught watching Deadless Catch. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:48 So then my theory is that, yeah, he's colorblind. He can't tell if a movie's black and white. He just says everything's black and white. Sometimes he's right. Well, Nick, I hate to throw salt in your game, but maybe he likes more than one thing. You know, maybe he likes black and white movies and delia's sketch. No, I think he's just, he likes anything where he knows it's a black and white movie.
Starting point is 00:23:10 Because there's a certain style he can get from watching an old black and white movie. This is a colorblind person. Color movies confuse him. Yeah, they make him. They haven't catered. for the colourblind audio Whereas black and white He can't tell who's the sun
Starting point is 00:23:24 Who's the sky This we did Now this would explain How he's lost so much money On the stock market Because when stocks go up They go green And when stocks go down
Starting point is 00:23:33 They go red Yes But if he was colourblind Then he's just seeing Numbers moving in a direction And he's just throwing money In every which direction He's got to pick a punt
Starting point is 00:23:42 So like he is He's buying up stocks That have risen Dramatically And he's And he's selling stocks that have fallen spectacularly. Yeah, he also has no, like, internal compass. He constantly thinks he's upside down.
Starting point is 00:23:56 Yeah. He is a very... He sees the arrows on the stock market and does not... Those make no sense of them at all. Right. And nor do numbers. So he is a dyslexic. Devoid of any internal direction.
Starting point is 00:24:09 Numbers to him are just kind of bouncing shapes. He has no perception of color. He is an early prototype of a trading android. The US government made about 50 prototypes for stock market traded. They forgot not to program them to love. But they forgot to program this one to love. But he can fuck like no one's business. He shows literally no affection to his wife.
Starting point is 00:24:33 So, let me just show him as much affection as a prototype stock market Android computer. Let me take a bit of stock here. A colorblind stock market. We're saying that my man, JJ Big, is a government fuckbot. Am I on board He's a stock bot He's a stock bot He's a stock boy
Starting point is 00:24:52 Who happens to be Naturally gifted it Fucking He's a stock bot With a heart He's the only one Of the assembly line That they forgot to turn
Starting point is 00:25:02 The emotive programming off I see this is very Johnny 5 Or son I'm loving Even at his full emotion He is He doesn't register
Starting point is 00:25:10 On the human scale Like he still Seems like a robot To us Which is why It's weird That he gifts His wife
Starting point is 00:25:18 a ring after she cheats on him just guessing. Now gentlemen Can I just say before we Just throw it in that Don't ask my permission Well I just get in there Get dirty
Starting point is 00:25:32 I desperately want your permission You guys This movie is destroying you And it's only been 16 goes But about halfway through You guys For the listeners Tim
Starting point is 00:25:46 We watched about this movie is so long and like really like I feel I've listened to the podcast and I feel like it's very hard to communicate how long this movie is it feels like it will never end and at about an hour and a half Tim had fallen up toppled over like a some sort of skyscraper and guy was trying to play my guitar without ever having played a guitar in his life and so just like compulsion even had one lesson made him pick up a guitar and try to sing an ever clear song so like this movie is destroying these these boys and I really feel for them but hey as we said positively at one point only 10 more views until you're halfway yeah well god isn't that a milestone that we're knocking on the door of isn't the light in the tunnel devastatingly tricksy and deceptive here's something I'd like to just say there's a poorly lit time tunnel.
Starting point is 00:26:46 In the dark in the tunnel. The point of the tunnel is like fish that make their own bioluminescence and they look like the end of the tunnel. But they're not the end of the tunnel. Their air breathing bioluminescent fish. Now, the first question is we like to... This is not the first question. We like to say, we like to ask, we like to explore, what was your favorite bit of the
Starting point is 00:27:10 movie? We call this the shining light. Speaking of bioluminescence. I remember I laughed Okay So maybe Guy and I will kick off And you guys can think about a part of the movie that you enjoy No way I'd like these guys to go first
Starting point is 00:27:25 They get the whole spectrum of the movie to choose from Really throwing our guests under the bus I like where you're coming from Guy I'm throwing them on the bus They get to choose from any moment in the movie Even though it Joseph Moore would you like to start Yeah okay even though
Starting point is 00:27:36 It ultimately resulted in one of the low points of the movie Yes I just like the concept Of a karaoke bar with backup dancers I think as a karaoke patron Wouldn't it be fun to have backup dancers While you perform karaoke Punctuating your
Starting point is 00:27:51 Jawdropping performance Yeah So and they go to a place where this exists Solely I think so that There's a feasible reason for the girls To have backup dancers When they do a frankly embarrassing performance Of I Am Woman
Starting point is 00:28:04 But up until then They've kind of created this business I'm like yeah And so there was a moment Where I go I'd like to go to that place Although I did notice That was the one second
Starting point is 00:28:16 In which I was happy The one second in which it triggered your brain to think I wish more karaoke bars had backup dances That is your joyous takeaway from That's the moment I felt most at peace The guy who we open on Who I thought for a long time Was singing a Boston song
Starting point is 00:28:34 He doesn't have any backup dances though Yeah he does He's above it is he? Oh shit Then I take it all back conventional because they're not backing up in the traditional sense they're above plane Nick Samson does anything come to
Starting point is 00:28:48 mind when I say to you shining light favourite bit of the movie gobble up that mic I feel like my favorite bit of the movie was when Carrie called Big to tell him that she kissed
Starting point is 00:29:03 what's his face? Aiden Apologies Don't apologize I'm desperate to apologize to you to you. Let me apologize. It's not privilege. What's the word?
Starting point is 00:29:16 Permission. Permission and forgiveness. Keep going, Nick Samson. Dig deeper. I want permission and forgiveness. Carrie has rung up our favorite fuck bot from the government. I always ask for forgiveness and always ask for permission. Um, was when she rang his up Mr. Big and tells him that she's kissed him and we're back
Starting point is 00:29:36 in New York briefly. And because it took so long to get to New York, it took about. an hour and then I was so excited to go to Abu Dhabi as soon as we got there I realized oh it was like no no we we have to go back it was a mistake to go here so just that brief glimpse of like the city escape maybe Abu Dhabi no of New York oh during the phone call when we flashed back to him sad in his last tower cut to jj big the United States staring sadly out of skyscraper just I just felt like oh man this was this was a huge mistake
Starting point is 00:30:12 ever leaving the comfort of New York So getting a flash of big In his big soulless office Was your shining light of the movie God damn it that is Blake Okay well I'll tell you mine My shining light of the movie this time
Starting point is 00:30:26 And I think I've actually enjoyed him a lot of times But I've never remembered enough to bring it up Is Miranda's misogynist boss Tom He's amazing I love him He shuts her down so like succinctly with he doesn't even say words
Starting point is 00:30:42 he just throws a hand out he's like talk to the hand boom chucks it out there in the meeting Tom is a legend what got you about Tom this week he's just so authoritative and really installs himself is the voice you want to listen to in the room
Starting point is 00:30:58 it seems like he's got a lot of good ideas and that's how he got to be partner at that firm you know what I mean he's a man who you trust he's a man who you go to with problems and he gets them fucking solved. He's the kind of guy who like, if I accidentally killed a stripper, I'd be like, Tom, bro, some shit has happened in Las Vegas. Very particular kind of guy.
Starting point is 00:31:20 No, no, no, no. But I'm just saying, if it was a bad problem, Tom could solve it. He's not the kind of guy who'd freak out of me and be like, oh, I've got to call the police now because I'm obligated because you've committed a crime and murdered someone. He'd be like, we're going to get ourselves some acid. I know a chemistry high school teacher. We're going hydrochloric on it. We're going to dissolve the body. and no one will ever know that this has happened. He is a problem solver! And he's painted as a villain in this movie.
Starting point is 00:31:44 I don't appreciate it, but in the brief moments we have with him in the movie, I enjoy him. I genuinely think this movie is making you lose your mind. You always say that. You're thinking dangerous thoughts. No, I'm just saying, I'm not saying I'm killing a hookah. I'm just saying, if I did, I'd want to go to time.
Starting point is 00:32:03 It'd be like Mike Tyson way of framing things. We don't need to bring real people. people into the scenario. What's his name? Other guy. Damn it. I fucked that up. Are you talking about old...
Starting point is 00:32:13 Yeah, the guy about... Robert Dirt. Sorry? No, I'm talking about the murderer NFL player. O.J. Simpson? Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:21 It's called... Short doesn't sound like it. I don't think Mike Tyson's going to take Kelly to you mixing him up. Well, the hilarity is you tried to slam me and you've actually revered yourself for being a massive racist. No, I know.
Starting point is 00:32:32 Now I feel awful. So, shame on you. Joseph Moore. Let me say that name again. I could have just hit by him. I'm just... Joseph Moore. I'm just trying to be the truest
Starting point is 00:32:40 me I can be. God, there's a terrible defense. Guys, put up the ball and let's roll in with a shining light from you. Just want people to accept me for all of my character thoughts, including my rampant racism.
Starting point is 00:32:54 That's what I hear, too. No. It's what I here coming to. It's not really true to yourself, even if society... What a career blow in this podcast has turned out to be. Had it and quit it. Guy Montgomery.
Starting point is 00:33:06 What's going on? my shining light and sex and the city too you've got nothing look at those cold dead eyes the most trans spirit witness who starts answering the question
Starting point is 00:33:22 by re-saying the question in a different order sex in the city too Jesus Christ you are burning daylight on us Montgomery all right while you think of that Joseph Moore I'm going to throw it back to you you're running a very efficient
Starting point is 00:33:36 insane conversation here. There was a man in this film named Coffee Guy Oh yeah No coffee guy I saw him We love coffee guy
Starting point is 00:33:46 We're familiar with coffee guy The question is Where's Where's he up Bada-da-bba-da-bba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-bo Hold-it-up Who's that man What's he doing
Starting point is 00:33:59 What's he up to Where's he up to? Where's he up to? Where's he up to? That's the question. What's this dude? What's he all about? Where's he off to?
Starting point is 00:34:11 What's he doing? That's got to be over to the floor. Can't just put that on Joe's. Sorry. Joseph Moore, Nick Samson. What's he doing? Where's he off to? Well, I felt like after this, by the way, you guys built this guy up a lot.
Starting point is 00:34:26 And he did not disappoint. Excellent. He drank a lot of coffee in a very short amount of time, as promised. And then he left very quickly. and I could help but notice that a waiter came in very shortly after he leaves clears his plate immediately and I'm wondering
Starting point is 00:34:47 did this waiter take the coffee cup back into the kitchen and then go oh no this coffee was not meant for this man this was a prototype coffee oh my god not yet ready for store consumption he has drunk into his coffee What does the effects of this?
Starting point is 00:35:09 He goes home. He goes home, he passes out, he wakes up, he looks in the mirror. His arms seem stronger. He takes off his top. Yeah, that's weird. He's just a regular old coffee drinker. Yeah, regular coffee drinker. Hold on, he suddenly got all this energy.
Starting point is 00:35:24 He can't sleep. He never sleeps again. He is coffee guy. He's got the energy of a guy who's drunk three coffees, but all the time. That's right. He doesn't need another coffee. But if you give it to him, it'll be like he's had four coffees. He spurt steamed milk out of his wrists.
Starting point is 00:35:45 Yeah. He'll... He's got sugar. He's got it. Packets of sugar in his... In his butt. In his butt pockets. He's got sugar in his butt pockets, and he's spurt and steam out of his wrist.
Starting point is 00:35:59 Guy Montgomery, what do you make of that? Do you love it? He's running... He's got to have it. Suddenly there's a new... Suddenly there's a new hero in town. Oh. Oh, people are mugging people.
Starting point is 00:36:08 Oh, coffee man's coming along. Being a bit pushy about it. Because it's a mug. Coffee. The, great joke. A mug is mugging someone. Yeah. That is brilliant.
Starting point is 00:36:22 And here's the crazy thing. It turns out that it's a Harry Potter mashup universe where muggles are mugging mugs. And only one man can save them all. It's coffee guy. He's on the scene. He's steaming mad at crime. He's off there with his wrist.
Starting point is 00:36:36 spurting hot milk into people's eyes, which is actually, when you think about it, pretty fucking hardcore, it seems like a pretty low-level superpower until you analyze the fact that he's got someone in a goddamn headlock, and he is spurting something that is above 100 degrees into their goddamn eyeballs, they're just going to burn them irrevocably. Yeah, they've got no sight. He'll the flesh right off their face. Which is how Mr. Big became black and white sighted. That's what the colorblind people calling themselves.
Starting point is 00:37:04 And credits. Credits roll. Credits roll, credits roll. Everyone's leaving. Not us. We know to stay in the cinema. That's right. After the credits of Coffee Guy, it's a little sneak preview of the next big character. Walk me through it.

Starting point is 00:39:29 it's in my professional opinion as an esteemed reviewer of Seagland City too which I do on a weekly basis and it is a process I enjoy what I most enjoy when I You're a nightmare You're a bloody nightmare And you're a slacker
Starting point is 00:39:49 And efficiency with which I do it Oh man I don't Are you outraged Nick Samson Yeah I want you to Yeah I'm fucking outraged Just get to the fucking point man Do you guys have shining lights
Starting point is 00:39:59 Yeah We talked at length about them And they were great Oh yeah They were ones For the books. You're a crazy bus driver. Don't you put this on me.
Starting point is 00:40:08 What's your shining light? My shining light. Fucking hell. It just all blurs into a horrible memory. You're such a piece of shit, Montgomery. You really are. It's just one long, ongoing disappointment. My shining light is that Mr. Big's coffee cup is never full.
Starting point is 00:40:28 There's never coffee in the cup. You enjoyed that. It's all an illusion. It's insane. Something they got wrong in the movie. is your shining light? No. My shining light is that
Starting point is 00:40:38 yeah, I guess. I just like Mr. Bigger and his coffee cup props. Do you know what I like? You like me. Nope. The opposite. What do I'm going to do with that?
Starting point is 00:40:50 We can go. What a negative note to wrap up on. We need these guys to pitch the movie to us. Oh, God, that's got to be quick. All right. You guys have got to pitch. So Guy Montgomery and I are movie execs. We green light projects, we get shit done and funded.
Starting point is 00:41:07 You two have walked into our office to pitch us this movie and so we can fund it. Gentlemen and gentlemen, hand over your pitch. Okay. I was just walking. First of all, hi, nice to meet you. Well, I forgot a tie for this. We've met before. We did it work on a project last summer.
Starting point is 00:41:25 Yeah, my name's Tim. I don't remember a lot of people, so I'm very important. Okay. So is Guy Montgomery. Well, hi, Tim and Guy. My name is Nick. and you or no, Joseph. Yeah, from last summer.
Starting point is 00:41:37 We worked on a project. Fuck this up. All right. Don't go back to New Zealand. What? We never go back. Okay. So, I was just walking here,
Starting point is 00:41:46 and I passed a store with a bunch of television to the window. And on the televisions was a show about some women. And you thought of this pitch on the way here. That's great. I like it. And the time, in the amount of time it took me to walk the entire length of the the TV store, I got the gist of the show
Starting point is 00:42:06 and while I was walking, I also I passed, the next shop was actually a travel agency which had a picture of the Middle East and so, I don't know and then I passed, we passed a candy store selling Reese's pieces. Yeah, and then I
Starting point is 00:42:23 hit my head pretty high. Very important executives and you're telling us. You don't need to know all this, you don't need to know. This is probably undermining my picture of anything. Picture this. Picture this. Picture this. The drums and pianos combine. It's Jay-Z's Empire State of Mind. Where are we?
Starting point is 00:42:40 We're in New York, but not New York is... Not for a while. But then we get on a plane. Okay. But after a while. Yes. We're not there for... Then we go to Abu Dhabi.
Starting point is 00:42:52 Oh, bold move. Also, hard to follow. Yeah. Okay, by the way, don't worry about that. We're not going to be respectful. You've got Joseph Moore on the project. No one for his racism. that does make me feel confident
Starting point is 00:43:05 by getting that racist dollar I always thought Joseph Moore was known for his very even-handed liberal defense of everyone. Normally, sometimes he confuses controversial athletes. I see. Anyway, so I've got
Starting point is 00:43:21 women, I've got television. Can I do my own pitch? I don't necessarily want to be associated with him if he's going to be racist. As a Jewel I'm very confused by the pit. No, you're going to need this racism in the film. won't work if they don't make just offhanded comments about women and minorities. My place has New York and Abu Dhabi. It's two settings and we spend as much time in one as we do in the other,
Starting point is 00:43:46 which is an indeterminable, never-ending amount of time. Here's what I'm going to do. I like elements of what you both have said. I need this man. I'm throwing you together. I need this job. As a directing team. I'm giving you no money.
