This week on We Hate Movies, Sheenpril concludes with an episode marking the great team-up
of brothers Charlie Sheen and Amelia Westob as this is Men at Work.
I'm Andrew Juppin.
Stephen Sadek.
Eric Siska at work.
We hate movies.
Hello everyone. Welcome to We Hate Movies. Thank you for tuning in. As always. That's right.
Sad to say, guys, Schingpril, the dumbest name we've come up with in 13 years. So stupid.
Coming to an end.
Men at Work, 1990.
Get a load of this shit.
Written and directed by Emilio.
I did not remember this little detail.
The credit, the title, after the title,
it's like, of an Emilio Estavestavest picture.
Yes.
Ooh, I love it.
You're making a movie about garbage men, man.
We should say that Chris isn't here because,
so it was funny when we did it.
It was this prank where we put a balloon of shit in his locker.
Then it got in his eyes and his mouth.
And I just really hope he pulls through.
He's got pink eye, he's got pink brain
He's got shit in the brain
It's, we went too far with the prank
We went way too far
It was our fault
It was funny
It was funny at the time
But boy, we we miscalculated
The amount of feces we wanted to throw in a person
The projectile amount in that bad
We overpowered it
We were we watched an older boy do it
Charlie Sheen and Emilio Estabez
And he was like breathing in when it happened
It was just like a confluence of bad events
Yes
that is shit long as well
that's terrible those are some
of the most disgusting shots in cinemas
these dudes getting carved in feces
twice twice uh yeah
this was not Emilio's first
directorial effort actually
nor last
perhaps it should have been
even though I think this is kind of an amazing
movie did I say it was his debut
I was just sort of curious if I do it's ever seen
because I was looking up in the car
the way up here what the hell is it called
Wisdom from 1986.
No, what's this?
Demi Moore, unable to find work
after a past felony graduate, John Wisdom
and his girlfriend,
and his girlfriend embarked on a cross-country
bank robbing spree to aid American farmers.
Who would have guessed that about America?
I was like reading it that I was like,
how is this that's going to end to aid American farmers?
I don't get it.
It was like there was like farm aid or something going on at
the time. Maybe some big thing. Wait, it's him, Demi Moore, Tom Scarrett. Oh, Veronica Cartwright.
Tom Scarrett? Tom Scarrett, Farmer? He's a farmer? No, he's Lloyd Wisdom. Oh, he's the
Papa. Yeah, Papa Brains. Wait, Tom Scarrant and Veronica Cartwright in another movie together.
Yeah. Oh, how about that? And Tom Scouts being, going back to the rookie, played Charlie's dad.
Oh, yes. Now he's been, Emilio's dead. He played dad to both of the she and sons. That's more than our
actual dad ever did.
Oh, wow.
Wow.
I mean, maybe he is, no, I guess they look too much like Martin Shee.
They look at the sound exactly, yeah.
I wouldn't be surprised if Tom Scarrett was dipping his stick in there from time to time.
I'd be nervous if I had a brother that looked exactly like me like Joe Estabez.
I'd be like, you fuck my wife.
You fuck my wife.
You know what I mean?
Like you just turn around and put a little mustache out or whatever.
Right.
Like, oh, he's on a business trip.
Oh, I came home early because Joe Estabez looks exactly like Martin Shee.
Yeah, but I would like.
like to think that if Mrs. Sheen
came home and
it was just Joe Estabez with
a fucking mustache on, she'd be like
what are you doing?
Joe, I can smell you.
I know what you smell. I know what you smell.
I know what Martin smells like and I know what you smell.
Oh my God. I guess they would smell
differently. I guess people smell.
People do each person. Yeah. Ferramones
and whatnot. Right. Yes.
That attracts everyone. I saw this
in theaters. I don't know. Oh, no.
This was a big.
HBO broadcast
and I think a buddy of mine had it on tape
okay similar with both of those
yeah I think we taped it off the telly
yeah and this was this was a
this was a classic oh dude it was
in rotation absolutely
but I don't think I've seen it like 30 years
to be totally honest with kind of the same it's been
forever but I think it kind of holds up
I know someone's screaming in their car saying this movie
shit but I kind of like it no it's I think it's fun
I think it's a fun like it's just as weird
there was like a it's not an 80s movie it's exactly a 90s movie for sure there was like this weird it's almost a one crazy night but there's a little bit too much going on in the beginning there's too much up front and that that kills the one crazy night that kind of sucked for me because i'm i'm a big fan of one crazy night movies i love them dearly and i was like oh shit there's like kind of a there's a first night at the beginning of this movie and then the movie like kicks in and then it's a one crazy night but that first 15 minutes there's a
night. Because I think what you can do
with this movie is, to
make it a one crazy night, like, you
do show them fucking around
and then, obviously, then the great Keith David
has to show up and, like, yes.
The second day, tell them what's what.
But, like, I didn't cut out the fucking around
a little bit. Like, you're gonna, you know,
like maybe a montage of fucking around.
That's all I need, honestly, because it's
Charlie. You're going to be writing
with Keith David today. Why? Remember
yesterday? Fuck around montage.
Boom. Now, right. That's the move. Yeah. And you're in it.
I could see that argument, even though I have an affinity for some of these scenes at the start.
And you know what's, I watched this movie twice recently because I got it on Blu-ray and it looked so, I couldn't resist.
I had to watch it immediately.
Then a few weeks later for this, I've now rewatched it again.
And man, it is, it is just a buddy cop movie that is now they take, it's like the slacker interpretation where it's like garbage men.
And everyone in the movie is like a fringe of society.
Like a pizza boy, a deranged veteran.
The cops and authority are the bad guys, as are the yuppies, you know?
I mean, garbage men, you can't get more fringes of society than garbage men.
And when I saw you make that point about the buddy cops, but their garbage men on letterbox, I was like, oh, fuck.
Like, that sort of unlocked the rest of the movie for me.
I was like, yeah, that's exactly what this is.
Because they're even yelled at by their sanitation boss in a way the police chief would yell at them about who did this and what.
destruction of property and roll in the bowling
ball down the alley. So much that it's
also like a gruff black dude as
the boss of the great Cy Richardson
of course. From
Emilio's best out. The best thing
a she and son's ever done, I would
say, Repo Man. Repo Man, absolutely.
And he's also in the movie that you don't
like, the other Alex Cox film straight to hell.
I want to rewatch that. Maybe
like now kind of, I
had seen that before I saw
repo Man. Oh, okay. You know what I mean?
Like maybe I needed a little bit of.
Because that is sort of advanced level, Alex Cox.
Exactly.
I just jumped in.
A scumbag punk rock western just sort of sings to my heart in a certain way.
The thing is, like, I, Emilio's better than Charlie, right?
Like, just like flat out, we can just say it.
He is, but he's shorter than Charlie.
Yes.
Which, when they're running alongside each other, it's pretty funny in this movie.
But I think they, I think they both really, they do really well here.
There's that natural chemistry because they're brothers.
They've been bullshitting together their whole life.
So when you get this comedic dialogue with them back and forth,
it hits better here than like Charlie doing another comedy, for instance.
It totally does.
They're like brothers that like each other,
which I think is unlike the Baldwin brothers,
Alec would never be in an,
oh, is Daniel going to be in that picture?
Yeah, you can, I'm out.
I'm not playing a garbage man alongside Daniel.
Here's the thing.
Not alongside Billy either.
Oh, my God.
Oh, pretty boy, Billy.
You can keep jerk it off to those games.
Sliver boy
Sliver boy
I love that
You are a sliver boy
What was it like
Growing up in that house together
How did they all end up
Hating each other
At one
One two six archer avenue
I think it's a long island
Thing
Long Island Irish brothers
We're drinking
Fight
Fucking long island
Everyone's in a bad mood out there
You're like one
You're like one like car
incident or way
From a family annihilation
Everyone out there
Like that's what
When that fucking
serial killer was caught out on the island a couple
months back. I was like, obviously.
Everyone's at the fucking
at the edge ready to go. But also
yeah, he grew up, the Baldwin's grew up in a fucking
Ed Burns movie. Yes. Oh my
God. You know.
So yeah, versus the sheens.
You know, you got the money. You're the pretty boy
rich kids, but also
the laid back Los Angeles
lifestyle. They like each other. They do
have really good chemistry. You can tell a lot of fun
improv is probably going on in this film.
Oh, definitely. And that, yeah, just the
the brotherly bullshitting.
I mean,
it adds something to this movie where
if it wasn't Charlie Sheen,
if it was Daniel Stern,
or who's supposed to be in it?
Oh,
he wrote the script like in the mid-80s,
Emilio did in like one of,
you can tell.
Yeah,
a million different drafts of it.
At one point it was going to be
Judd Nelson would have been the brother.
Yeah, get one of my Brat Pack brothers in there.
Absolutely.
Which don't, no.
Yeah, I think this works well with them together.
I think that's kind of the glue that holds this together.
Totally.
And this is like the first, I mean, like I was looking good up because it was a he goes,
it's Sheen, it's 89, it's a major league, which is first real close to comedy aside
from first Bueller.
Yeah.
And then this is a full on comedy.
Right.
And then 91, the very next year is Hot Shots, which is where like, Hot Shots part one, 91.
I would have guessed a little later, but okay.
When is loaded weapon?
Is that also 91?
93.
Really?
Yeah.
So it's a little bit later.
Oh.
Yeah.
I can do what Charlie does.
He's got a cameo in that film as the ballet.
Oh, right.
There's that great John Lovett's bit in that thing where he,
John Lovitz is being the Joe Pesci character.
I forgot this completely.
I think it's a total fourth wall destructor where he just goes to Emilio Estim,
he's like, isn't it weird that you're doing this and Charlie Sheen did hot shot?
Like he's just like, it's literally just doing it.
It's really fucking funny.
Anyone ever see rated X from 2000?
No, it's dude.
They worked. Oh, wait, that's another Emilio movie.
Amelio movie where they act off each other.
Yes, really.
Biopic of the Mitchell Brothers, who opened up a successful San Francisco strip club and thriving porn business,
which led to a downward spiral of power and greed.
Not even heard of this.
I watched a lot of rated X movies from the year 2000, but just not this one.
I've definitely heard of it before.
I kind of sort of vaguely remember it coming out.
I want to say it was like an HBO movie or a showtime thing.
made for TV. They made for like, yeah.
A premiere TV kind of a deal.
Yeah, no. Oh, I completely forgot about that.
Ooh. Did anyone else see Bobby?
Oh, dude. I never saw Bobby.
The Emilio movie. It's too bad Chris isn't here.
Me and Chris went to a press screening of that.
Of Bobby.
Bobby.
Yeah.
You were to see Bobby back when you had to legally put Shia LeBuff in every goddamn movie.
That's right.
Speaking of even Wall Street, City never sleeps.
Yes. Or money never sleeps.
And also, we do want to just really pray for Chris and his shit endure.
they're pumping his stomach
scientists are doing everything they can to crack
the hardened feces off this kid
Chris we love you get well soon
so we get John gets in this movie
gets the hammer by the way
totally Max Potter Dam the third
what a fucking name to Potterville
oh yeah doing that you know the evil guy
with money is Potter
he is bebop but he's having a great time
in this movie he's a cartoon character
on, like, Judge Doom-esque levels at some times, I feel.
I think everyone is keyed into what we're doing here.
There's not really someone not doing the cartoon-y thing, you know, which works.
It all works together.
Everyone's on, everybody knows exactly.
I feel like Amelio did a good job being like, look, this is what the movie is, all right?
This is what it's going to be.
It's really silly.
It's going to be silly.
But if we all agree that it's silly, then it won't be stupid.
And there you go.
That's good direction.
He pulled it off once.
and it's this movie
it is it is absolutely this movie i did not see bobby because i heard it was
i heard it was not so good it uh it's a rough one although he's in it briefly
he's in it i think he got uh lindsay lohan's in it yes i think she's playing sir hon
oh okay yes exactly she says six separate tyranos and started shooting
a lot of inaccuracies i believe it i believe it's her and shia are like canvincat canvassing
that's right yeah yeah yeah
That sort of kicked that memory back, yeah.
It's the first scene, the dumping, and we meet, we meet John Gets, and the other guy.
And I mean, like, I've said this before on this show.
It happens a lot in movies.
When you're in a criminal enterprise and you're planning on betraying your boss or your, don't tell him.
Do you know what I mean?
Like, do not get, when you're in, like, the mafia, don't give the guy an ultimatum because it's never going to, the ultimate him is, please kill me, is what you're asking.
Although, you know, even if he did.
He didn't tell him, and he went straight to the cops.
Well, who's this character actor playing the cop?
Roger Prodactor from us.
Yes, yes, yes.
He's been in everything.
We'll get to that scene in thorough details.
Came out the womb having that haircut, Roger Predactor.
But he's a cop that then instantly calls Potterdam.
So I like the politics of this film.
The police stations inherently corrupt or silly.
And then, of course, the pollution, the environmental message, folks.
Absolutely.
And what's weird about this is like
Potterdam, when he sets up
the whole thing, and Berger
is the politician guy who is
running for office. City councilman,
Jack Berger, who wants to be mayor or something.
Of Las Plas, California,
I presume.
I would hope so with that ocean.
No, but
what was, oh, so he's like,
oh, Potterdam sort of explains what the
businesses. Yes. He's like,
now when I make my Potterdam
paint thinner and all the excess
And I was like, so all you're making is paint thinner at this factory?
It's just a massive paint thinner factory.
But it's really like Captain Planet coated, plunder industries, vibes.
I mean, I'm guessing the stuff in there could also make the toxic Avenger.
Yeah, for sure.
Definitely.
Because yeah, they're dumping it and you just see like even the barrels are leaking immediately.
Right.
And they're not even sealed properly.
You told me that these barrels wouldn't leak for 150 years.
Yes.
Oh, my God.
But yeah, Jack is like, you know what, man, maybe the point of, because also, like, it's weird, it's way weird to go to your crime boss and be like, listen, I'm out of this crime and I don't fuck with me because I'll fuck with you much harder.
Sure.
I mean, is he just trying to sound good on the tape so that like when the tape comes out in court?
It's like, look at me.
And this is what I was the guy saying stuff.
That's a great point.
Yeah, I hadn't thought of that, but like, yeah, when it's inevitably played before a jury or whatever, like, see, I've.
fought hard. I never wanted to be in the pollution racket. That's a good point. I never
consider that. I have to watch this again. Yeah, the third time would do it for you. Yes, I think so.
He definitely, like, he has the tape when he's like, gotcha. Yeah. Dude, what are you doing with the
gotcha? I just, yeah, the way to get the tape is just like, hey man, how about that fucking
dumping? Huh? It's pretty cool. It sure is. Love that dump it. Oh, man. I wake up every morning
excited to pollute the oceans. Yeah. And it's so cool that we're putting your chemicals in
those and remember when you told me
that they would last 150 years and you know that they
don't? Do you agree with that?
Do you agree with that sentence? Oh, so funny
can you like say what I just said back in a
positive way? Like to say yes, I do.
And then you say, I rest my case
your honor, on the tape
in front of it.
It's in a documentary film like
so when I say, when I ask you the question
respond in the positive but also
repeat the question inside of it
because they're not going to hear me. Yeah, I don't
want to be in the film.
I love Emilio's introduction in this movie
sleeping on the beach like Dylan McKay
got a blonde beach babe
you know and he's like
if I had to get up at like whatever this is
like three o'clock in the morning go to work
I'd probably sleep outside too
like an animal total dog lifestyle
yeah definitely and he's playing
by the way James St. James
Great name
speaking of fucking rated X that's a porn star name
if I ever heard one. That's true
and his ladies like
hey can I borrow your surfboard today
He seems really put out by it.
I feel that's a thing, you know, you're not Sharon's surfboard.
It's a part of me.
It's my board.
This is the characterization they give these, they're not brothers.
They're definitely not brothers.
Right, because it's Carl Taylor and James St. James.
And they want to open a surf shop together.
They always talk about they love to surf.
Right.
But you get a vibe that this is a, this is a, it's something to talk about.
It's a weird.
It's a weird, a Mandela effect memory.
of the end of this movie
being them at the surf shop
that they've opened.
I don't know, maybe that was a fantasy.
Maybe I was writing fan fiction at the time.
Oh, sure.
Oh, my God, write a novella about this.
I would Google,
I would Google men at work fan fiction,
but I got a few of them search results
or things I don't want to look at it.
Well, a bunch of Australians blow at each other.
Were there only three people that like this movie?
Maybe we should.
What if we wrote a little sequel?
Oh, shit, dude.
Yeah, we could share it with,
I guess each other, the only people that would read it.
We all did a great job on this script for men at work, too.
Oh, and they're all old now?
Yeah, exactly.
Men in old work.
I mean, Keith David has to be in it, obviously.
Oh, definitely, yeah.
But he's still around, of course.
But so Cross Town, Charlie Sheen, his Carl character, is a dangerous loner.
I don't know what's going on.
It's never explained, like.
The BB gun shit.
No, the peeping. Hey, Tommy, how's the peepin?
Oh, well, he's also introduced shooting his BB gun at a poster of Burger.
Yes, he shoots it right in the head and says, I hate politics.
I hate politicians.
I hate politicians, which is holy crow.
Yeah, he's going to kill someone.
We come to find out his lady Gina walked out on him that night.
Right.
Sure.
But then he also says later when he meets up with Susan, he's like, oh, I've been watching you for weeks.
So maybe that's why she's like,
Yeah, yeah.
Gina's making dinner like,
hey, babe, you got to come in?
I got the pasta almost.
What's you doing?
Yeah, totally.
She finds Charlie with the big old binoculars.
I'm jerking off out the window.
Because what does he say?
He starts peeping on this one woman.
He's like, oh, it's my favorite little stewardess.
Oh, yes.
This is crazy.
It's so brazen.
It is.
That's what I,
I kind of,
you have to kind of admire it in this scene because he doesn't give a shit.
Like,
no.
She sees him and is disgusted and closes the blinds.
He doesn't move it.
an inch he's a hundred yards away
tops like you're across the street
you're across the street neighbors
he gets caught peeping
and instead of like oh shit oh fuck put that down
she closes the curtains and he
gives kind of like a what's
her problem yes oh my
god and then he keeps looking at other windows
we get a guy dancing with a sex
doll yeah we get
another guy peeping which was
great that's pretty funny your competition
there's jimmy stewart I think he had a broken leg
which was a reference to the thing.
The rear window.
Also reminded me very much
of the beginning of the movie The Killer,
the great.
Yes, it did.
Exactly.
I think he saw this.
Yes.
It was definitely aping Estevez.
You know, once they get into the whole plot
of the, you know, the mystery,
I was starting to think a little bit about
Big Loboski, a movie where it's just
a loser that gets wrapped up into something.
Totally.
In, you know, a California town.
I mean, you know, Lobowski goes to Malibu
briefly, so more of a beach town up
But yeah, definite Labowski vibes here.
But he's watching, he watches Susan.
He's like, oh, you like papaya.
Oh, no, it's mango.
That's what you like.
That's what you like.
Oh, nice wine selection you have there.
Oh, some Domperignon.
Oh, very nice.
Oh, yeah.
And it's just like, this is our, I don't know, man.
It was real creep vibes.
And especially also, she works in a local politician's office.
Real taxi driver.
I was going to say she's the Sybil shepherd to his Travis Bickle.
Garbage driver
Starry Charlie Sheen
Some days I pick up the Pringles
Some days I pick up the com
But yeah
So they meet up for work
And this is your friendly neighborhood
Garbage Consultants
And we get like a montage of them
Just having fun picking up trash
Yeah it's first
Charlie meets Emilio
You know beginning the movie like
Oh finally these two Titans
Are gonna go at it
Totally heat
Emilio gives him a jolt
cola for the morning. You got a toast with jolt in the morning. Just a couple of guys
drinking jolt cola at 5 o'clock. I've ever had the pleasure. Yeah, it's gone, right? They
wiped it off the face of the earth. It was too powerful. They did a, like, reissue or like jolts
back, like, very briefly, and I tried some of it. And, like, it basically tasted kind of like
an R.C. Cola type thing. I think it's R.C. I think is underrated. I like R.C.
Oh, yeah. A little syrupy, but it's a little sugary. Yes. But it's the Royal Crown Cola.
Yeah, you get in, I feel like a king when I drink that.
Drinking like a damn king.
My soda.
Yeah.
My royal soda.
We know kings die of diabetes.
But Jolt had more caffeine was the thing.
Bring it back.
I need caffeine.
Well, I feel like we have it now.
I mean, it's just the same shit package differently.
Pepsi Max.
That's more caffeine.
I want Joltz with a little lightning on it.
I got to drink in a lightning bowl can.
Exactly.
A maroon and yellow lightning bolt can.
I would feel powerful if I saw that.
Pepsi is so innocuous.
You see it everywhere.
It's making you weaker.
You want your soda to stand out, to make you stand out.
Exactly.
The public when you're at the movie.
Exactly.
An unhinged soda for an unhinged man.
But they do meet the rival garbage men guys right here.
This is cool.
Frost and Lizzynski.
This is also like, you know, more slackers and misfits in the outside of society.
And they're the worst of them because one of them is like the white guy with dreadlocks.
Dude, and he's got a fucking like, kind.
continent of Africa medallion
that he's wearing in the locker room.
What is the other guy's got like a little leather vest?
I thought maybe he was kind of rockabilly
a little bit. The haircut definitely screams
stray cats. Like a handlebar mustache
kind of go to the thin goateeal. Perhaps
he's a scatman. I'm always a big
fan of movies where
and Wes Anderson does this a lot where like
everybody's got a sidekick. You know what I
mean? Like sure. The Emilio's got a sidekick
in Charlie. These two guys
and then also the cops. Like I always
is like a movie where there's
an economy of sidekicks.
Right. And in a way
what Keith David
apprehends his own sidekick
later on. And they're
kind of paired for the rest of the movie at that point.
Frost, the dreadlock dude
played the guy
from Forrest Gump who
beats on Jenny at the Black Panther
at the Black Panther meeting. Oh, is that right?
Yeah. That's amazing.
That's amazing. He made a whole career
on a playing shitty white guys.
Yes, exactly.
That works. That's amazing.
They sort of fuck with these dudes right here.
They like back up and break the headlamp on their truck.
I think it's important, especially when the cops start fucking them to note.
I think this is a private, a private trash company, not something from a city.
Yeah.
Because it's like, because it's not like lost place garbage, man, it's whatever.
It's like sunshine cleaner or whatever.
A lot of, a lot of, a lot of municipalities have switched over to private, even up where I live.
It's all private.
My parents have private trash removal, yeah.
Which is why I think the cops fuck with them.
Because I don't think NYPD will not fuck with NYP with New York sanitation.
No, no, no, right.
They're all the same.
The cops just fuck with the firefighters.
The firefighters just fuck with the cops.
You don't want to mess with the mafia, the sanitation department?
Yeah, dude, New York's strongest.
We're like New York's most mobbed up.
Yes, and to me, then, they are now New York's finest because we are a pro-mafia show.
Absolutely.
Just businessmen trying to take care of the community.
and sanitation workers
who could ever have beef with that
these poor these men these men and women
dragging this crap up from the curb
doing doing God's work
battling rats at every turn
exactly one of my best buddies from high school
sanitation dude long long time
rocking and roll I mean that's it's a fucking career man
and you're out in like 25 years
it is yeah he's already talking about retirement
you son of a bitch
man we're gonna die with these mics in front of our faces
I know we did the wrong thing
we should have we should have lived the men at work
lifestyle exactly just wake up
They are also clearly waking and baking.
It's off camera, but they are, which is surprising.
Why would you not have a little more spliff usage in this movie?
Because they knew, they knew there's people like us as children would watch it.
I feel like if that was going on throughout it, my parents wouldn't let me watch it.
But it's totally fine, like Charlie's chugging whiskey all throughout this movie.
That is totally fine.
I do think that there's a thing like back then, like the second marijuana is used, unless it's like a high school.
movie and like there's a stoner character
that you can isolate
if your main characters
are using marijuana even
once it turns into a pot
movie like an instant like
it just goes a different way
genre wise because we weren't
I mean sure of course people were casually
using it we weren't
casually
referencing it in that way
it wasn't worked into the fabric of our everyday
lives like it is
full on war on drugs
mode here right
I mean, HW is an office, an extension of the Ronald Reagan regime.
And then, you know, Dare was going strong.
You were never going to Dare.
Oh, I remember, I remember Dare very clearly.
Yeah, they're like, smell this marijuana so you know it's good stuff.
Yep.
I remember very clearly in my Dare meeting as a kid saying, I will one day.
Like, just like, it was a bastard.
I was like, I'll probably smoke pot once.
You know what I mean?
Of course.
But then he told the story, which is, oh, the fake story was like,
yeah my me and my partner were uh he's like you know you don't do what you do on television
what i'm telling you you know like on tv when they grab a knife and they taste it like yeah it's pure
you don't do that my partner tried that he wouldn't have cardiac arrest immediately and it's like
and it's like this fake story about like the second he even looked at cocaine he's dead and like
he's dad he died and his wife was sad and i was like why did you have to touch that stuff
Then we had to go
Then he also
Before that though he tried a little marijuana
You know what he did then
He played the piano really fast
And that while laughing
Such a horror
Horror
I had to break into his mother
That he played the piano fast
And then died
From cocaine
I remember this dude
Officer Jensen
Clear his day
He always thought we were buddies
Because he knew my father
And I was like
You're the dare officer dude
We're not gonna be friendly
No
even in the fifth grade
but he opened he did a fucking like
suitcase open and I was like
well look at this spread you brought
like it was the most
like fantastic looking spread
of colors and shapes
and I was like well this all looks fabulous
I don't really see what the problem is here
nice little carrying case yeah oh wow
look at this it's all organized
nothing's falling out
you're gonna miss all of that are you
I mean yeah
pass it all around so we can get
clear, you know, up close look.
I want to make sure I know exactly what it looks like.
It's kind of crazy because that does like,
I felt like that just totally normalized it,
you know? Of course it did. Oh, this is all it is?
Oh, all right. Oh, yeah. Oh, it's not that, I'm not that
scared. Yeah.
Look at this. It looks inviting.
The cop that created the program admitted like years later that he was
like, yeah, it was actually responsible for turning more
kids onto drugs than not. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Maybe it didn't work so well.
But yeah, so we are totally stood sober.
having fun and
slapping lids I guess
with garbage can lids and just
if I saw garbage guys acting
like this I'd be like
what is going on oh my god
pick up the trash put it back we're tossing
things that's a funny
real like scatter shot there's a bicyclist
that goes by knocks into
like Charlie she knocks into him or something
the guy's like hey and he goes
shut up dickhead
yeah I'm like
I am instantly on board with these characters
not enough use of the word
dickhead in movies.
Dickhead back. We got to bring
it back. Call your mom and dad a dickhead.
Okay. If you're
listening and you're younger than me, which
you are. You are. Yeah. You are.
You just are.
Even if you're older,
you're younger than me. But yes,
while they're having
a ball picking up
trash, Burger
goes into the office. He's sweating
about like where are we going to hide this
tape. And this is where we meet
uh susan played by leslie hope she had a little bit of a career nothing nothing crazy but i think
she's still working now just a lot of tvs you're there yeah i don't know why not more movies i think
she's pretty good in this real april o'neal vibes big time uh i'd say the first april o'neas yes
yeah judith hoag yeah not page turtles are kind of garbage man if yeah that's sure oh dude if
if carl and james got the oh yeah we got the ninja turtles this is our sequel they
made up with the turtles.
This is great.
This is now turning into a four-issue IDW comic book series, but it's okay.
Can I tell you, you just reminded me, I saw something the other day.
This has to be stopped.
We have to stop teaming up the Ninja Turtles with other people.
They are slutty those turtles.
They'll team up with anybody.
Who the fuck are they teaming up with now?
So, like, in the past, they've teamed up with Batman, among other things, right?
I saw an advertisement buying, I don't know if it was, what did you say, IDW?
I don't know if it was IDW.
It was somebody plugging a limited series comic thing.
The Ninja Turtles meet the kids from Stranger Things.
Okay.
I just need it to stop.
That's too far.
I've seen them team up with the Power Rangers as well.
I didn't read it.
Oh, I missed that course.
I was like, all right.
I guess so.
If they teamed up with men at work, you'd feel grounded.
It's part of that reality.
They could be friends.
Charlie Sheen and Melio Estavis could be friends with Casey Jones.
They would be like peas in a pool.
pod, those stories.
No, and actually the Ninja Turtles,
some of the only garbage men to take
their work home with them. That's true. Well, they live
in garbage. They're constantly surrounded by
this shit. Sewage. Raw
sewage. Remember when they're surfing,
it's not that fun, kids.
Yeah, they feel like Charlie, James
and Carl, go down. They're like, oh, the turtles
are, they were great guys. They beat up those
ninjas that tried to beat us up on our route.
We should go down and party with them. Oh, my God.
Oh.
Oh, Jesus.
Oh.
Yeah, when the smell is too bad for garbage men, by the way.
Hey, dudes, who was?
I can't eat it.
I can't eat in this.
I don't want to open my mouth.
You expect me to eat a pizza in this?
Oh, this is our huge rat, friend.
Oh, he's got a water bug on him.
Oh, cool.
And then Charlie, she takes out the binoculars,
and he's looking in the techno drone.
Oh, very nice.
Yeah, no crang's naked.
I guess he's always naked, though.
Oh, he's drinking some papaya.
Oh, no, it's a mango crank.
Okay, all right.
Oh, yeah.
I got some Domperian on there, Crang.
Who is the pervert outside there?
Oh, bummer, busted.
Shratters.
Someone's peeping through the technodrome again.
Stop jacking off to me.
Amelia Estabez, get back to a rated X, not dimension X.
Yes.
so he's a burger is telling uh susan here or she's like oh i got the tape of the group that
is gonna play your victory night partay or whatever the hell he really dresses her down here
he's obviously very stressed he's like she's like do you want to listen to say i pay you to
make these decisions you have to be a leader at this point like it's like it's really like
we've talked about this kind of a thing right right also one of those reminders again that i just
want no part of that world yeah i don't want to organize a king
campaign.
I just want an annoying-ass job.
It's grueling.
You know,
that's long hours,
especially if you're working
for an elected official,
yeah.
And someone who's already in office
trying to get reelected.
Yeah.
Well,
also they just have so many,
my wife briefly worked
for some politician type of stuff.
Yeah.
Good for her.
I couldn't do it.
It's like 12 hour days,
organizing the events.
They make you take the chairs.
You have to physically drag the chair.
It's very community outreach.
And a lot of it's good stuff
like working with
constituents to help people from being
evicted and things like that, but
they expect a lot out of you
for little pet. Yeah. It's all
DIY and it's like if
something's not getting done, you got to do it.
And that's why it's, that's why it's
susceptible to corruption because
it's like, no one's making money off
of this. Right. So we might as well take bribes.
Yeah. Which is what
Jack Berger gets into.
That's exactly what he got into. But yeah, this is
around where we also hear about like
this is the last year worth
throwing trash, you know, we're opening
the surf shop and Charlie's like, that's what
you fucking said last year. No, but
now I mean it this time, says Emilio.
Yes, and they are, uh, they
stop for lunch. And this is a
really interesting part. So stop for lunch.
We're looking at the babes. We're talking about the surf shop.
He's like, I could feel it. It's going to happen.
It's also like, I don't know, I feel like
where they're sitting, there's probably a surf shop
over there or surf shop over there.
Yeah, that's the dumb thing. What's the difference
between your surf shop and everyone else's?
Why don't you think of something?
that the neighborhood doesn't have.
Yeah, totally.
I mean, you know that these dudes
will be getting into the recreational business.
Yes.
You know.
The second it happens.
You know, yeah, 15, 20 years
from the time this movie comes out.
Yeah.
When they retire from the garbage service, I suppose.
But this ain't happening.
This is a pie in the sky dream
because they're not hustling to do it.
And they're arguing who's working harder on it.
Yes.
They do have a great apartment, though.
I will say.
like this apartment. It's really nice. It is nice.
It is nice. It's, but it's
they, are they, they're not
roommates. They are because they
are they? Amelia wakes up there.
Well, I, or did he crash there?
He's sleeping on the floor. I took that as
a crash. Okay. Carl's, he lives
got that all by himself. Carl's
living nice. I guess Gina used to live there
too, though. But James, St. James,
he lives like a dog. He's sleeping on
the streets. Yeah, we don't know if he has
a residence. I don't think so. I mean, when they're
during that, like, where they're clanging
shit and they're having fun.
A lady comes out and
kisses him. Oh, right. Oh, yeah.
So, you know, I think maybe he's like he's
fucking everybody on the route. Yeah, it's not couch
surfing. I guess it's
bed surfing. No offense to
a lady surfing. Sanitation workers and
whatnot, but like, can you
imagine just like going
out handing a man a bag of trash
and kissing that person passionately
while they're in their trash
jumpsuit? Depending on what it looks like. Yeah, I was going to
say, you know, I'm, I could be talked
into that. Especially pro-Abelio here.
We're all pro-emio. He's a man in
uniform. He's a hard-working guy.
A man-in-uniform, as we like to
say. Short king,
absolutely. Yeah. But
you know, you're getting
sprayed in the face with old beer
and fucking pizza sauce. It's a thing
we're like, please wash up and then we'll talk.
Good point about the short king. I guess I'd give
him a kiss on the top of his head.
Have a good day at work.
I think that's why I, you know,
as a kid, even, I knew I was never going to
be tall. I was like, that's the best it's good.
Right there. He's a little red hair dude. That's the trust you got.
I was deformed as a kid. I got to six feet in like sixth grade and that was and then I
stayed that way. Were people calling you a lurch? I would have been. People weren't saying nice
stuff. I'll tell you that. Well, it was a thing where like for a while people were lining up
by height and then like, you know, okay, everybody like, you know, we'll do it that way.
And I was like, you know, I can't find out myself in the front an awful lot here.
And then, like, lo and behold, I realized that my dad is pretty short.
And I'm like, wait a second.
Yeah.
My brother got somehow got to about just about six feet, that son of a bitch.
But I don't know.
What are you going to do?
What are you going to do?
So, but this is, so they're having lunch, I have burgers, beers.
Beers, I do love to bun hemmies at lunch.
I loving it.
And the air is perfect for drinking.
Yes.
I want to start doing that from now.
Absolutely.
And they, but then they immediately go.
and like it's a cut
and they have been wearing it in the movie
but I'm curious if in the world
have they been wearing their wetsuits the entire movie
we're supposed to believe so that's disgusting
it is disgusting and wouldn't that
now I've never worn one
how's the breathability in that
not great yeah
I mean because it's right on you
yeah and you're sweating and you lift
hauling trash like wouldn't
wouldn't it make sense just go in the bathroom
and change into your wet suit but it's just a
bathroom right the
The beach is the bathroom for these guys.
But it's a good visual of them taking off the jump students right under there.
You'd think the movie would have the money or whatever to show them actually surf at any point.
They do not.
I think it's probably because our Sheen boys or our Estabez boys because of Charlie's real name.
Yes.
He weird how Charlie took Martin's acting route.
Right.
Change the name and Amelia did not.
But anyway, I don't think those brothers can serve, I think, is the end.
idea.
Like, neither actor knows how to do it.
I mean, that's another credit to Emilio.
Emilio wanted to make it on his own and did.
You know what I mean?
For the most, like, people were like, that's, oh, that's Charlie.
That's Martin Sheen's son.
As opposed to, I'm Charlie Shee.
Totally.
Yeah, yeah. I mean, and only one of them was in the brat pack.
And the other one was a periphery player.
There you go.
Maybe that's why.
But it's also like, so you're not like, oh, you're not like advertising your
brothers necessarily.
Yes, exactly.
Which is probably a good move.
Yeah.
I wouldn't advertise these sons a bitch.
Hey, why don't you take Momsman?
Hey, Daniel, it's Alec again.
Why don't you take Momsmaid name?
Stop walking around with Baldwin.
Yeah.
You, Billy and Stephen are all whaling's now.
All right.
Listen here, you little piggy.
I own the name Baldwin.
You're not a Baldwin.
You're Ireland Piggy.
I mean, Stephen Piggy and Danny.
Danny Piggy and Billy Piggy.
And who the fuck is that?
Adam Baldwin. We're not even related to him.
You know what? Kill that guy.
I'm the only one and you
are the only ones that can bring disgraces to our
name. Not some interloping
Baldwin.
Around here is when
Berger takes the tape
to the cops and then this is Troy Evans
Roger Prodactor. Only seen
of this guy. Which kind of sucks.
Which is surprising, you know.
And he's probably like seeds deleted
maybe. I would guess so.
You figure Roger Prodactor is
coming back for the end of this movie like oh and the cops are here to help
oh he's actually not and it's a real but it's a real like this movie had to be 90
minutes flat or else if this movie's even 91 minutes you're like oh you're looking at
your watch like what the fuck is going on which is smart yeah which is smart you got to like
even if it makes it a little shaggy you got to pare it down because you can't hang out
too long with this movie no no no you really can't uh this is when we meet the cops
mike and other guy oh the bike cops yeah the bike cops yes they give a big speech about one
and it's a weird thing like
you need an inciting
incident of like you want Mike to be like
I see the way you throw these trash cans
around this place this neighborhood
looks like shit because you guys
one day you're gonna fuck up but I'm gonna do
but he's just like one day
I know he says I know you're crooked
I'm like crooked and what the garbage
crooked garbage man yeah hates them
because of their laid back cool vibes
and what's great about them
these cops here I like that they have
their own theme music yeah
I like a movie that leans into shit like that.
And it's like, uh-oh, here they come.
Audio cues for characters is always welcome.
Mike's partner, he had the guy with the mustache.
He's like almost had a career.
He was in, I know this because I watched the first season of Mad About You.
He's before Cousin Ira shows up.
He's Paul's wacky friend who wears like a hat.
Ooh, they vaguely remember Paul having a friend.
Had a friend early on.
Yeah, he had like a checkered hat.
He's like, I think his name was like Brody or Stony or Sully or Stoney.
Definitely and Y on the end.
Yes, exactly.
Well, man, in that case, Cousin Ira, welcome addition to John, John Pratt, the great John Brackdown.
Yeah, exactly.
Never watched Matt about you.
It's funny.
You would hate it.
Yeah, it's not good.
Yeah, I would, I hate a lot of things.
The actor we're talking is Tommy Hinkley.
Hinkley.
That's very hinky.
And he was mad about you as.
Selby.
Oh, Selby.
Yeah, dude.
That's why.
So Selby just like went up the stairs one day and never revisited.
And then cousin Ira came back.
Well, I got to give you guys pictures of Selby.
I'm sorry.
Oh, we're going to do some pictures.
Were you right about the checkered hat with Selby?
It's like that.
Hold on.
I just pull it up here.
I like the cops because you know what this is all like here.
Here we go.
Oh, yeah.
Look at Selby.
This guy.
Oh, I would not know.
That's a Selby.
You got to send Selby back.
That's not right. When you're in the retooling department, you're like, all right, that's one.
By the way, this picture, look at, can I see that again? That sort of looks like the meme of what's his name, Kevin James with that flannel on.
Oh, right. Yeah. He has the same facial expression. Yeah, and his hands are tucked into his pockets. He's looking a little, and he's looking at frumpy.
That is, that is back to formula on Selby. Yeah. So you're saying about these officers.
Oh, no, I just, I like this kind of like.
Yeah, the beef that these cops have is indeed that they're just laid back slackers.
Yes.
But it's like, it's, it's funny because like these dudes are just the same age as Charlie and Emilio's character.
So it's not a thing where it's like if the cops were older and then it was like, you damn lazy, you know, use garbage men.
It's like how these guys got to the point.
It's also funny because like the joke is they're bike cops.
Yes.
So automatically you have no respect for them whatsoever.
They're like uptight nerves.
the socks are pulled up
to their kneecaps and
very Reno 9-1-1 it's just you know
it's just a different vibe and
these vibes don't mix so we have to
threaten them with a jail
and probably I would say the most
in my opinion the most famous joke of this
movie is Mike gives this big
speech I'm gonna get you you guys
blah blah blah and Emilio looks at
Charlie and says golf clap
and he goes golf clap
that was in the trailer
it sure was just like I feel
I feel like that was everywhere.
Yeah.
It's really great.
That's where it works.
I feel like another movie,
another movie had to have done golf clap and it didn't go over as well.
But this is,
this is the quintessential golf flap.
Absolutely.
Which I always prefer over the,
you rub your finger over your thumb and you're like,
this is the world's smallest violin.
A similar kind of vibe slash insult.
Yes, the reservoir dogs, Mr. Pink does.
Yes.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So, yeah, he goes to Captain Dalton.
Roger Padakton. He's like, oh, this, I got it all on tape.
Potter Dam's crooked, blah, blah, blah. Oh, thank you so much.
Concerned Citizen. This is great. I'll look into it.
And he leaves. This dude immediately calls Potter Dam, right?
Well, first, the joke is he put, he's like, you know, I'll tell you all about it.
But listen to the tape. And then two live crew starts.
Oh, that's right. That's the gag, which is.
And then he's like, well, yeah, I guess you got the fake. Are you going to play some two live crew?
What? No. I'm playing the tape.
you hear that throughout the film and it's delightful
it's also like possibly the cleanest two live cruise song by the way
the sound track of this movie is very early 90s like this pump up the jam it's like
it's kind of dance music for the most part well it's I would argue it's 50-50 a lot of dance
music like pump up the jam the two live crew song but it's filled with awesome
reggae and dub music.
Yes, it is good. You got Ziggy Marley
on here. You got Sly and
Robbie. And you be 40s
on here as well. It's a
vibe. I like it. Black O'Houro, one of my
favorite reggae bands, Black O'Hourou
on the soundtrack. I've been
that Ziggy Marley's song has been stuck in my head for about
31 hours and it's not going anywhere.
When it hits
at the ending, I'm like, oh, dude,
great credit song.
Around here is where we get our first locker
room scene. And boy, are we
back to the prank wars here.
Yeah, well, this is what set off
the thing that eventually almost took
Chris's life.
He's on a, I just got a word from his doctor.
Yeah, he's on a respirator.
Oh, no. Oh, a shit respirator.
He slipped into a coma.
Shit coma.
Yeah, that's what they,
that's the medical word for it.
My professional opinion is your friend
is slipped into a shit coma.
That's kind of fall asleep by the toilet. I've been there.
Oh, my God.
the the the basically you just see charlie and amelia walk by their nemeses and they're like we're going to get those guys one of these days and the nemeses opened their locker and a big air because that's right um yes earlier in the film uh the inciting incident um you know um amelio uh backs into their truck and it's like fuck you guys uh and then like he's like oh charlie check the glove compartment when he does the airbags pop it's like wow that's funny yes yes
So they did get pranked from them, yes, already.
So this is the revenge for that light prank in the car.
So somehow.
Thank you for pointing out that the first airbag prank was kind of a light prank.
Because this is zero to 60 in prank wars.
And he just, the opens locker, it's another airbag, but a big one.
And they're like, oh, wow, very funny.
And then it bursts and they're both covered in feces.
A couple of questions.
Yeah, great questions.
A couple of questions.
One, the setup for such a device, I have no idea how.
these two garbage men would also get this to work.
Second question,
way more important question.
How? Where are you
accumulating that much feces?
Is it human feces? Are you stopping off at the zoo
in the fucking elephant cage?
Is it their own feces?
Hey, Carl, it's me, Michelangelo.
Well, yeah, we got a ton of it.
How much you want?
Really? That's all?
Let's try to move some of this stuff.
It would make total sense
for the Ninja Turtles
to be involved in this universe.
Yeah, I called my shit guy.
Michael Angelo, he's coming up.
Yeah, 20 gallons of shit.
If it's not the Ninja Turtles supplying it,
then I'm just thinking they're like,
yeah, throw another log in the bag, James.
This is, yeah, it's a lot.
Because it's a lot of shit.
There's no, that's the other thing, though.
And I don't want to get too nasty here
because this is gross.
But it ain't logs.
It's a.
fucking 100 pound chili
cheese burrito flies in their face. Yeah, it's
diarrhea. Yeah, diarrhea there.
You know, maybe they were the garbage men for
my neighborhood. My neighbor
used to have a broken
bathroom, so she would, an older
woman, she would shit in a bag
and take it to the dumpster.
What? Yeah. That has
to be against the law. Sure.
But if you're an older white woman,
the law does not apply to you. Unless
it's out the mountains, I'm assuming, where you
grew up? No, no, no, no.
Oh, no, about cold spring?
This was in cold spring.
Oh, my God.
Someone, somebody should have been saying something about that way.
Well, you know, the condominiums, a lot of them throughout this great land of ours are just where old people go to die.
Yeah.
And when their toilet stops working, they sit in a bag.
And then they stay in there.
Oh, my God.
They stay in there for so long.
They chain smoke.
The walls go yellow.
Tiles start falling off of there.
No one checks anything.
The landlord's negligent.
and eventually they slip and fall
and then they break their hip
and then it's like that's the end of that
and now you know
the only thing that's going to change
after they break their hip
they're not making the trip out to the
out to the garbage down
that bag is just going right on the side
of the couch because who can miss that much
price is right
I miss hoarders in a way
they're out there dude
you can find your own
well I think he means the classic television series
hoarder's colon buried alive
Why don't you make your own?
Take a camera.
Start knocking on door.
I guarantee you Jersey City's rotten with them.
Oh, absolutely.
There's probably some in your building.
Yes.
I remember, I don't, I think we're throwing out an air conditioner in the Bronx once.
I just, you know, you leave it out in the stoop for, you know, your sanitation guy to come pick it up on whatever designated day.
Right.
Not five minutes later, some dude in a truck and it in like just a weird looking fucking jeepers, creepers looking truck.
It's just like, hey man.
you might have I take that you're not going to use that AC that's for the garbage man and I was like
yeah dude you could use it's like thanks thanks like really just going around the neighborhood
just collected like detritus he can that's that's still working like not really because we're
throwing it away and he's like yeah but I can probably fix it I'm like yeah I just need to be able to
drink the freon inside of it that's all I'm looking for I had a similar thing I had an AC I was
getting rid of in the city and I put it on the curb in Queens and then this guy came
He was just like, oh, yeah, you'll get rid of that or whatever.
And I'm like, yeah, and it actually works.
I think it was moving or whatever.
And he's walking down the block with me, following me to the bodega,
followed me back.
Just talking my ear off.
By the time we got back, it was gone.
Oh, no.
Someone else took it.
So do you think this guy was trying to like work his way, like working up the guts to ask
you if he could pick up your garbage?
No, this guy was a menace.
He would smoke meth on this stoop.
Not even kidding.
Once my building was raided by the NYPD and they,
like a massive raid, like 15 cars.
Oh shit.
Cops on every floor of the building outside my door.
I thought I was about to,
I was looking for my own gun to take my own life, Steve.
Oh, sure, yeah.
Worryed about it.
Sure.
I thought they were coming for me.
They finally found me.
I don't know how.
But then I look at my people and I see him being dragged down the steps.
Oh, sure.
Oh, my God.
Should have taken that air conditioner.
He was always trying to also sell me like this like hot Mets merch he got.
But I don't know if the arrest was for.
that or for the meth or whatever, but
it was, uh, why not go down for both?
That guy, you've been
you would pretty, this is not the express
permission of Major League Baseball, you son of a bitch.
Yes, that Simpson's joke.
Just written. Yeah, that guy
was a nightmare. I hope he's doing well.
So this is that they get after the, the
prank shit here, they get in trouble with
the Cy Richardson playing Walt. The boss
is, you know, we're getting too many complaints.
You guys are being fucking jerkoffs.
You are being assigned.
someone who is going to observe you
for the next couple weeks and indeed it's my
brother-in-law Keith David. Hell yeah.
And he's kind of laughing at them. He's like,
oh, you're going to love him kind of a thing.
He knows that he's setting these guys
up for a fucking failure. Yes.
We do have a weird thing where they're
so the boys are hanging out before we meet Keith
David. They're just back at Charlie's
apartment playing. What I can
only imagine is the same set
of trivial pursuit
that they saw like the week before
on the curb. Like how much do you think
These dudes are taking stuff that they find.
Oh, great question.
Oh, a lot.
You see, there was a brief moment where, look at this smut.
And it's like an ace playing card.
Pornographic playing cards, dude.
They take it.
They take it.
I mean, dude, you're an adult.
Just buy your own pornography.
Well, you got to save up for the surf shop.
They should be opening an adult bookstore.
Yeah, that's the move.
That's something that's needed in the community.
Oh, definitely.
You get the jerk off boots back there, James.
Can you see it?
Can you smell it?
I mean, maybe we could sell a couple of sorts.
surfboards too, but it's mostly about the
spank bank material. So, let me picture
this, it's a surfboard with a giant penis
painted on it, and it's the logo
of the store.
And then there's the beaded area, and yeah, people
are jacking each other off back there.
Dude, and it's called, the store
is called Hang 10,
but it's just hanging brain, like
out on the logo. I like
that. Surf shop slash
adult bookstore. Yeah.
It could totally work. Mostly at adult
books. Yeah, well, well. I mean,
you got it you know what's moving more inventory and great thing the team up of the two like business models you can have something that's like yeah you can use this product to wax your surfboard and it also works as a great lube yeah oh my god yes dude wax your board if you know what i'm saying that's right uh so they're getting kind of hammered here like getting hammered this is where we uh charlie learns what phrenology is which is uh
sort of important for later in the movie but uh-oh while this is going on
there seems to be a disturbance across the street a little bit of a hubbub here and again
look you want to look at someone out the window and whatever like you do what you got to do
have the fucking smarts to turn the lights off yes it's a fully lit apartment with two men
staring out a window looking what's going on and this is burger coming to susan's house
freaking out about the wrong tape switch thing and where's the tape where you can't hear
but that's what he's doing
and he's kind of grab at her a little bit
which is kind of odd for a boss
he's yeah well they do make some sort of
yes that they had some type of relationship
as well yeah
I mean it doesn't make it any better
no or right no but yeah it's sort it's like
it's shoving it's like pushing
down yes running past
I mean he's frantic he's going to get murdered
by the guy so it's like I'm not trying to give him
leeway he's a jerk but
yeah this guy's in hot soup
he's in real hot soup
but so Charlie's like I hate
people who beat up on their ladies
I'm gonna get a butt shot in
yeah so he gets his little
pellet pellet gun we don't say pellet gun
pellet gun I call it a BB gun
people call it a pellet gun I think is it
a thing where BB
is it like a brand
Q tips and Kleenex like you know maybe
is the BB gun brand
oh I see maybe yeah it's got a thing
because I've always just called the BB cotton swab
right that's the generic
anybody here have a BB gun
No. No.
I think my brother did
briefly. Yeah. It's
Yeah. We were a Nerf and down
house. It's a question. It's an eyebrow raised
in the background check.
He's like, got a lot of BB guns.
Well, I feel like
depending upon where you live, it's
different things, right? If you're like
up in hill country, like where Eric grew up,
here are shooting squirrels
or whatever.
Yes, yes. Actually, it disturbed me seeing a squirrel get shot once.
Oh, really?
By the BB gun?
By the BB gun?
I was like, oh, my God, there he is.
He's becoming Jeffrey Dahmer in front of me or whatever.
It's, it's, I'm telling you the eyebrow raised.
It's, you know, I think this is when we put down the BB gun for life.
He was shot at a squirrel.
It hit it, like, right in the neck.
Oh, Jesus.
The thing fell like a rock out of the tree.
Everything got real.
And it bounced on the ground, and it was just like, holy.
like terminal velocity
he bounced he bounced
the squirrel bounced unlike the
woman in that movie
this thing did get up and run away
oh that's good so I assume it
succumbed to its injuries in the woods
right it was eaten by a fox
moments later but I was never
into weaponry
my brother was you know he had a sword
he had this that and the other thing
he did martial arts
I did martial sitting down and watching
television I had a sword buddy
buddy with a lot of swords you know
It just happens.
And he hasn't, as far as I know,
killed his family.
No, no.
It's a nice family, man.
Great family.
Really?
Yeah, yeah.
They're still alive.
They are still alive.
But so, yeah, shooting that animals,
weird psycho shit.
Yes.
If you're a dude who lives in a beach community like Los Plias,
what do you need this?
You are just shooting people with it.
I guess maybe seagulls, if you want to be a fucking psycho.
What comes in,
it comes in handy as a fake gun throughout the movie.
Sure.
Maybe the idea is if someone breaks in, it looks like you have a gun.
It's a deterrent by holding it perhaps.
Yeah.
So, yeah, he winds up, they shoot him in the ass and they're chuckling to each other like a bunch of scamps at this point.
They're the little rascals.
Exactly.
They're like 15 years old in this.
And it's kind of funny.
It's a good juxtaposition because they're scampily laughing underneath, you know, they hide immediately.
You could picture Charlie and.
and Emilio, like, doing something similar as kids, like, growing up.
And meanwhile, this dude Jack, Susan leaves her apartment to maybe get the tape or something.
This dude Jack gets garreted really violently.
It's kind of awesome.
So there's these two goons that Pottersville or Pottington.
What is it?
Potter Dam.
Maxwell Potter Dam the Third.
Yes, thank you.
Potter Dam sends these goons, these two goons that kind of.
Hired goons.
Did you guys see their license plate?
by the way. Yes. It says hitman.
It does. That's pretty cool. Because we're in a
cartoon. Sure. Their license plate says hit
men. And because one is like
a shorter blonde
dude and the other one is like
a taller brunette guy. It's kind
of like an offset Charlie and Emilio
yeah. It's another set of
yeah, which is sort of nice. The taller
guy is Italian. Mario
loves listening to the Italian
opera in the car will come to find. We do have a kind of
annoying. We're fighting over the car stereo
Kegg. Yes. Ben down that
road a thousand times in movies. We have, but
oh, Emilio
perfected it in this one, though.
But yeah, they come in,
they totally strangle this dude. It is a
violent, like, this
dude, Mario is like shaking this
guy until the life is
just drained out of him. And the other guy's like,
touchdown, the tape.
He thinks he has the right tape.
You, as the audience member, know that that's
not the case even slightly.
And he, you know, runs out, we got the tape or whatever.
and meanwhile our friends just see this happen
or do they actually miss the murder here?
They miss the because they're hiding.
Yes.
They're giggling and then they just they get wasted
and they wake up the next morning weird
like it's a throwaway gag and I think it's an
it's an Emilio having fun here.
He wakes up the alarm goes off.
He throws a can and you hear a cat go
and I'm like where did the
does Charlie have a cat?
Is there a cat? It's just a cartoon.
Yeah. And then Charlie makes a milkshake
out of old coffee
and Yeagermeister and Tylenol.
This is the hangover cure.
Wasn't there another? Oh, dude, you're forgetting
vanilla ice cream. Yeah.
The most important ingredient in your hangover shake.
Also important to note,
after they kill
this dude,
they take the body down,
put it in one of the chemical
factory barrels, and they
sort of put in the back of their Cadillac
here and they're driving away.
The one goon's driving way too fast.
Uh-oh, we hit a bump.
The fucking bungee cord rips off the hood or the trunk door.
Can goes flying out, of course, and lands, wouldn't you know it,
next to some garbage cans that will indeed be on Charlie and Emilio's route the next morning.
This guy, Biff, it's Biff and Mario.
Biff is a guy with the ponytail, the shorter dude.
Yes.
Mary never went on doing anything else.
This guy was in, he's in a funk bands such as Shadows of Night, Bangor Flying Circus.
and he had the
1883 hit single
Ain't Nobody
big big thing here
he composed songs for film
soundtracks such as Cobra
Wildhats
Wildcats and Beavs and Butthead
Do America
So there
Successful man right there
That's nice
So yeah the the next morning
They're over
They're with
It's now we just see the three of them
In the truck with Keith Day
We introduced Keith David
And Keith David is
he's on fire this whole movie he is it is it is a fucking 10 out of 10 no notes performance i love
the reveal because it's like amelio driving the truck and we we pan to the left there's charlie
sitting miserably and then we pan to the left again who is on the end but keith david god damn
it's great and i think it's what's really great about this movie in terms of it holding up
there's some i wouldn't call it gay panic jokes that'll come up in a little bit but just we're
having a little fun with our let's make these guys look like they're gay which is right
a little bit if he for for for now similar to what we're doing at the end of can hardly wait yes exactly that that kind of prank but it doesn't go too far it doesn't there's no f bob and i would say for this movie like keith david isn't like i think in other movies you'd be like oh the crazy black supervisor he's black like the blackness of him would be more important than other character traits yeah yeah yeah and like in this it's just he's just a crazy vietnam veteran that's the thing that's the thing that's the thing that's
That's what dominates the personality.
That and the intensity.
You know what I mean?
He's the Walter Soap Check of this movie.
It's not like in that, what do you call it there in fucking Animal House when they're like, they're, do you mind if we dance with your dates?
Exactly.
It's not that, which is especially for an early 90s movie.
Again, you have to give him credit where credit is sort of due.
Yeah, I think what you're getting at is like, where is the fear coming from?
An animal house, the fear, do you mind if we dance with your dates is because they're tall black dudes.
Yes.
The fear in this is because Keith David is an intense, crazy Vietnam veteran.
It doesn't matter that he's black.
Exactly.
Yes.
And I love the doodles he's doing.
Oh, my God.
So, yeah, when they're at this, like, diner or something getting lunch and he's drawing
like this beautiful, like, touristy pier that a bunch of families are walking out onto and stuff.
And attack helicopter shooting missiles at it.
It's great.
And he has great chemistry with both of them, actually.
he really does like the comic timing between the three of them is very very funny like
basically like he's sitting over there and like you know charlie sheen's trying to keep the piece
and he said don't don't you know don't upset this guy james like yeah i think you're full of
crap or whatever he's i think you're a piece of shit sucks yeah so do you and then like he tries
to hit him he wants him hitting charlie sheen and like it's kind of funny because he's like
he feels bad about it how's your face going you know kind of a thing yeah i also like umelio goes
to eat a French fries
and Keith David grabs his hand he's like
never fuck with another man's fries
yeah one of the few sacred things
on this earth or whatever if we could
all live by these rules I think it would be great
yeah don't touch my fries I think
this is there's a lot of life lessons to learn
if you want a fry it's the old do you mind if I
yeah the only one who can not ask is my wife
yes exactly she wants to take fries
which also that took me a long time to get over
I didn't work on myself a little bit.
Twitch it a little bit when you just grabbed so.
I did. I did for a long time. Now I don't give
a fuck. Believe me, these days with me, the fewer
fries, the better. Sure, but that should be part
of the wedding vows. Yeah, I bow.
You can eat my fries without asking.
Yeah, I think that's important.
You know, you need to know the boundaries.
Charlie puts a nice
button on the scene in the
diner because the fry scene is pretty much the end
of it. But like, as Keith David
is still holding Emilio's hand,
Charlie like turns and just mouths
what the fuck? It's so funny.
That should be a GIF right there.
Giff it. No shit. The fact that
it's not leads me to believe
not enough people know about this movie.
I know folks if you're on the fence
Pause the episode. Go watch this
Magnumopis and then come back and join it.
Who gifts of movies? Is it the Library of Congress? Is that
so you send the movie to the Library of Congress? Yes. And then they
cut it up for gifts? Exactly. That's exactly how it works.
You don't even have to pay nothing
Wow, that's pretty good
But yeah
So we're on the garbage route
Keith David is observing them
Taking out the trash
Charlie goes to take one of the barrels
Oh, oh it's a little heavy
Huh
We open it up
And thus begins our pseudo weekend
of Bernie's adventure
We are having a little
Yes
It's kind of funny
Because they rip off weekend of Bernie
Like three or four times
During the movie
It's not what the whole movie is about
Right
We're definitely kind of ripping off
Weekend of Bernie
meanwhile so if this movie was written in the mid 80s
did somebody sniff up fucking Emilio's screenplay
and Amelia was like dude that's my movie
I don't know I mean it's a real chicken of the egg because
McCarthy steal my fucking movie that snake
Weekend of Bernie's 89 yeah
yeah it's true so I don't know
I don't know when the script for Weekend of Bernie's
was written important stuff that the government should be doing
a congressional hearing
on men at work weekend at Bernie's
and then of course get both these movies
the Library of Congress staff.
We need those gifts.
Hey,
Andrew, it's Emilio.
Yeah, yeah.
You know what you did,
you fucking mannequin fucker.
You know what you did,
you manic and fucker.
You came to my party.
You're like, oh, what's that?
It was like, oh, it's my screenplay
for men at work.
Fucking 1987,
I remember clear as fucking day.
And now you're hauling around
a dead body with a friend.
Watch what happens to you.
And then it turned out,
Andrew McCarthy was supposed to play
Gordon Bombay.
Amelia swept in
fucking fuck that dude's career
He's like a travel writer these days
And he also
He directs television
Here and there
Not so much acting these days
Just rewatched mannequin a couple of weeks ago
That is great tuned
It is
It's not a movie
Like nothing happens in it
What I love
Wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait
A woman comes to life
But that's it
Like there's no like
Does it need to be more
That's crazy
You got James Spader
as the
Snooty guy
Speaking of Judge Doom
performances
Yes wild performance
For him out of that
My favorite part of mannequin
We rewatched it a couple months ago
And
The fact that
Everyone in the department store
Is aware that he's fucking
This
They don't know that she's come to life
But they all think
That he's fucking this mannequin
And like
They don't think it's too weird
Yeah they're okay with it
It is the funniest part about that
Everyone's like
yeah oh yeah well you know what he does a lot of
because the whole thing is Andrew McCarthy
becomes famous in the world of that movie
because he makes good window dressing
so they're like well if this mannequins
his muse let him cook
let him jerk up on the mannequin
that movie should have ended with a little more oomph maybe
like she births a Pinocchio
oh my god
oh god
right this thing comes out
start the reaction
that is the
weird detail of that movie, too,
is she, Kim Cottrell as the mannequin
when she comes to life, is
the reincarnated spirit of an
Egyptian, like, princesses.
Absolutely. Absolutely.
So,
they find it, great line by Keith David
here. Who would throw away a perfectly good
white boy like that? Oh, it's so great.
I'd also love how casual he
is about finding the corpse.
Everyone else, the garbage men are like, oh,
and he's just like, oh, well, look at here.
Charlie's got a good line. Amelia, like, looks
down and goes like, what is that? Charlie
goes, it's a dead human being, James.
Yeah. And they're afraid
because they assume
because they shot this guy last night,
now he's dead. Yes.
One leads to the next.
Emilio turns into like shaking in his
boots mode. He's got a bottle
of Yeager in the fucking
truck that he starts chugging. Like, oh my
God. I have not seen this
much Yeager Meister product place in a while.
I can't with that anymore.
That college ended
vet for me. That's a good place to leave it.
Yes. Yes. I don't
think I even had it much in college, maybe
once or twice. I mean,
the problem is anytime you go to
Chicago, someone's going to give you a Malort, which is
a cousin, which is Yeagermeister's
grimy cousin. It's Yeagermeister
took a piss in an ashtray
and Malort came out. Yeah, that's what that is.
That's rough stuff right there. Keep it in the garbage.
But Keith David,
because he's a Vietnam vet, quickly surmises,
no, you guys didn't kill this guy
unless you garreted him with a piano wire.
A pretty sloppy job of it too.
I love that he's critical of this.
Oh, amateur hour.
Yeah, they take a garbage hat, put it on them.
It's like this cowboy-esque hat.
Yep.
And man, Keith David moving this guy's arms
when the cops come, it's just so, it's so good.
It's better than weekend at Bernie.
Thank you.
It is.
You know, like Keith David didn't have to tie a fucking string on it.
He's just actually moving it.
It's so good.
Yeah, so the cops come and harass them.
He looks frigging dead.
This is James' cousin from Texas.
Dude, he looks at the shitty hat.
He's like, Texas.
You're showing him a good time last night.
The best part of the scene, and it's basically like, they're like, the cops like,
oh, yeah, pretty boy or whatever, I'm going to haul.
What if I hauled you in right now?
And Keith David makes the hand go on the side of his face, like, oh, no.
And it's so funny
Oh God
That's one of my favorite moments
But so basically
They let them go
And I mean like
I understand because like
Those cops are crooked
They're gonna haul you in no matter what
Sure
The second those guys go away
It's like hey hello
Do dirty work
One of my favorite comedies
Hello real cops
You know what I mean
Just call the real police
And be like listen
Yeah
I shot this guy with a fucking
BB gun
I'll be honest about that
Here's the thing, though.
And yes, for the most part, honesty is indeed the best policy.
When a dead body's involved, you didn't kill them, absolutely.
But here's, but this is what I'm saying, though.
You don't have to tell them about the BB country at all.
Here's a dude found in a fucking can far away from your house.
It doesn't even matter.
We're just a wordest town sanitation workers.
Oh, shit.
We found a body.
I guarantee you that I first garbage had to fight a fucking body.
Precisely.
You know what I would do, though?
I would just seal it back up, take the other garbage.
and leave it. Oh, nice. Do it. The old
it was too heavy. Because that's
that will happen. You've got like two heavy
shit out or whatever. They won't pick it up.
Exactly. It was over 60 pounds. They're not putting that in the truck.
Yeah. Agreed. Or you just
put it in and crush it.
Oh, yeah, shredder style. That's the landfill
problem. Well, question about
Hey, Carl, thanks for take care of the shredder
for us. But that's
a question I have. When you see, there's
one point where you see them, they have to like
clean out the leftovers.
the garbage after they go to the dump.
Sometimes bones and shit.
Beginning of the movie, like, whatever.
But, like, it's, there's no compactor part of it.
It just looks like a flatbed truck that they were throwing garbage in.
Again, I think they're not municipal.
So it's probably just like a literal garbage truck.
We're just chucking it.
But if you're operating a waste disposal enterprise,
maybe there's a garbage yard that compresses it.
They've got to do that at some point.
Yes, and or, you know, like maybe they're the two Monday, Monday, Wednesday guys,
Tuesday guy has the compactor.
You know what I mean? Like that
that kind of thing. It just makes, it's hard
for me to grasp then how they're
just driving around these neighborhoods
throwing garbage because you can only
throw it like you can't throw it into the back
of the truck. Yeah, it's a good point. You know, you need
that's what the thing does. It compresses it and
pushes it to the back. This is the all, we'll
answer all these questions in our sequel
we're running. That's bad.
These are all notes. We were putting all a little
on the whiteboard. So they
take the dead body, which is, it's a silly
comedy ladies and gentlemen that's what you're gonna do that's you're either in here out here folks
they're taking the body and like Keith David because Keith David very specifically uh and also
you know black dude in California is like I hate cops you know understandable absolutely
yeah early 90s understood quick scene where uh the goons go back uh to potterman here
and they're potter dam potter damn I know see I well see all right potter damn it's just like
the town you grew up near Andrew Rotterdam potter damn okay
Okay. Potterdam, he's like, oh, good, the tape, fantastic, puts it in. Oh, two live crew again. Oh, we fucked it up once again.
Work it. Work it. I love it. I love it. So, yes. Now the now the guys also realize it lost the body, so they're on the hunt for that. And now it's kind of great. I do like that this movie, it makes Keith David part of the crew immediately. You know what I mean? Like at first they're really antagonistic. And it's like, oh, you know what? Now he's in on this crime. So they're at Charles.
Sheen's apartment, right?
Well, they go, they go back to the locker room
because there's another feces joke.
Keith David's got a great line
because they're like showering off the day or whatever
and he's like, the stiff
starting to get a little gamey
he says about this guy.
And this was a weird thing because they're talking about it.
Emilio's like putting on his Canadian tuxedo.
And like, they
it's like, all right, we got to handle this body.
All right, let's go to Charlie Sheen's house right now.
Got it. And they all leave. And then the camera
does a little like, we're moving just
to the right and you see the two rival garbage men
in towels again. And I was like, oh, they heard them. Yeah. And that's
going to be the thing. But it's not at all. They sneak back over
and they're like, oh, how did our thing not work? Our booby trap. It didn't work. And
they're just covered in feces once again. Well, it's a wily coyote gag where you're
like, why did my fucking rocket work? You jump on it twice. And I mean,
and this is like somehow. Yeah. This is much more feces.
Like the first one was, I mean, because obviously it's comedy. You got to heighten it.
there's so much more feces than the second one
it's like the shining elevators dude
I mean it's really
so they have a shit guy as well
okay but they're Raphael
are those guys cool enough
to hang with the Ninja Turtles I don't know
yeah they don't have any kind of like
specific contract with us or anything
we'll give you shit too
I mean we've got gallons upon gallons of it
they're just going door to door selling sewage
but yes
this is where we're back at
Carl's apartment here. Keith David
ready to tear into
this six pack of butt-heavy that he rips
out of the refrigerator. Yeah, and it's a
place to start. We're going to
go, we're going to watch the lady in the window
across the way, Leslie Hope.
This is where Black O'Hour is playing. Great,
great reggae band right here in the soundtrack.
But yeah, we're going to, now it's three guys
all with the lights on.
Now we're all going to together watch
this lady's apart. The movie's now fully
in a mode I like to call dumb
detective. Yes. Yes.
excellent yes and it's like hey we're hungry let's order a pizza which they do
uh and keith david calls charlie sheen hot shot which i thought was kind of funny it's like what now
hot shot when i was watching this movie again because i watched it twice for this the first time
a few weeks ago i paused it and i ordered pizza right when they did i ordered pepperoni
with extra cheese just because keith that's our keith david orders it's david special when i when it came
i was like this is probably a little too much cheese but i'm not a bit fan of the extra cheese i don't
I don't understand it. I love the concept of it, but usually, usually they do too much.
It's too much and it's a different temperature than the rest of the cheese. I find it.
I kind of, I kind of okay with that. I'm okay with that. I like, you know, in Long Island, sometimes you get the cold slice. I've never had this. Maybe that's why they're all pissed off. Yeah, this might be. I mean, this is something you do like once a year or something. Daniel, you eat my cold slice. God damn it.
There's a place in Huntington that they have, what they do is you get, they cook a pizza. They cook a pizza.
Cut up the slices.
You could ask for the cold slice and they just put cold mozzarella.
Okay.
On a hot slice.
On a hot slice.
That sounds actually pretty good.
So it's like chili on top and then it kind of, it starts to congeal in with it by the time you get to the red.
Ooh.
To the hot portion.
Okay.
It is, it's a delight.
It's a delight.
It's a decadent delight.
You do it here and there.
Not every day.
You're kind of selling me on this wacky pizza concoction here.
I like that.
Yeah.
You should try it out sometime.
Uh, but.
Carl is like, you know what, I'm going to go over there.
That's what I'm going to do.
I'm going to go over there to see, to do recon or whatever.
And he's doing a lot of like silly like spy walking around stuff, you know, and he hurts himself.
But there is a funny, doesn't he stop at one point?
Like, what am I doing?
Yeah.
Just like walks normally because he is like creeping over whatever.
He sneaks into the building.
I do love nice little detail here.
Because again, people should be fucking refering it up, topped about.
this movie they are not uh susan lives an apartment a vietnam veteran you you light up in front of that
dude he's a lot of fun susan lives in apartment 420 oh i didn't even catch them i got to watch it
a third there you go get that blu-ray back out start spinning put that in our notes for the sequel
absolute 420 susan's apartment 420 quick question was susan hit in the head before or or is she just
wasted like i don't know she catches this dude outside of her apartment she's going to throw
garbage out. She's not really a real character. Let's be honest. We really didn't write a woman.
No, this is the worst written woman in a while. But, A, let's go with it. Yes, she's throwing stuff out.
Go ahead. He, Charlie Sheen falls over, says he hurts his ankle. And she's like, oh, my God, do you live in the building? And he's like, yeah, I'm doctor. I don't even know that fake name he gives.
Yeah. Or I'm somebody. I'm a doctor. Yeah. I've lived here. I lived in this building for five years. That's the, that's wrong. You have to be like,
I just moved in.
I just moved in.
Secondarily,
I'm a phrenologist
and anyone will be like,
you mean that science
that was debunked 40 years ago?
But she doesn't know what it is.
Yes.
Which is...
And later she's like,
hey, do friendology on me.
And it's like, okay.
That was all just a joke.
So it looks like...
It looks like she's giving him a head.
Yes, yeah.
And he's like, oh, that's really deep.
Oh, that's in there.
And the camera pan.
hands around and he's rubbing the back of her
head to try to... It's a pretty
funny, dirty visual gag.
It's a dirty little joke. There's a weird thing though.
They drop this entirely, but
she's like suspicious of him.
And she starts doing the old
like, oh, well, if you've lived in the building
for five years, you must know the
cultors down on the second floor
and he's like, uh, and she's like
they're both doctors. He's like, oh,
yes, of course I know them. Yeah,
they're great. And this is where it should
be like, there's no cultors.
that live in this space. You know what I mean? That like never
comes up. She just instantly
trust, trustworthy of this guy. I think
it's because he's handsome. Yeah, sure. He's a good looking
fella. We should say the mullets in this movie
are out of control. Impegible. Both of them.
It's incredible. I'm going to take the
photo of them to my barber. I think it looks good here.
He'll be like, okay, you want that? I guess
come back in another six months. You've got to let
that mullet grow out. That's what I'm doing right now.
Me too, actually. I have
due for a haircut. Yeah, so
she's a media. This is kind of
weird too because she's like immediately
like oh do you want to drink come on in for a drink
pouring these
stiff glasses of whiskey
yes well first she's like oh my god
I hurt you I have to take care of you
I'm a woman that's what women do
please straight please Mr. Dommer coming to my
house or I should say Mr. Bundy
rather Mr. Bundy please come to my house
you could bring your arm sling as well
what arm sling
so she brings him in and she's like
she uses an ice mask on his foot
which is kind of funny.
Yeah.
And she's kind of get you a drink.
Yes.
And this is when like they start fucking hitting it.
Like he pounds this glass.
Like it's a shot and she's like, oh, yeah, give me another one.
And they're drinking and she goes, do you want to switch to champagne?
Which good luck tomorrow morning.
But then oddly, you know, when he's like, oh yeah, that Dom should be great right now.
And she's like, how did you know I have Dom Pernion, here's the thing.
she is the campaign manager for this town council guy
that's running for mayor
what is the salary like that she's willing to open a bottle
of Dom Parignon to fucking feed this stranger
I have a theory a fan theory perhaps we'll flesh it out more
in our sequel sure sure she was date she was kind of dating
Jack Berger the councilman okay who was corrupt taking money
from Potterdam I'm thinking Jack maybe bought it
yeah that's true it's like oh for a special night
and actually fuck that guy.
I'm going to suck this mullet of dude's dick.
You know what?
Rebound.
The champagne.
Yeah, rebound.
Come in my house, shoving me around, flicking for tapes.
I'm going to suck this mullet a dick.
And boy, oh boy.
The dick is a mullet?
Possibly.
You make my pub so it looks like a Kentucky waterfall down there.
You know, this is a good question.
Has anyone successfully gotten hair plugs in their penis head?
Why is that the question?
So you can make you do a little hairstyle.
with it. You know, this is the male
version of Barbie right there. Sure.
They did. It's called Jeremy Piven.
And then, for some reason, that
penis started to ask.
Because he is a kind of a dickhead.
Yeah, he's a dickhead. Yeah. See, we're bringing dickhead
back. There we know. You know, that
PCU, though. Oh, yeah, PC. We got to do
that one. I, well, that and the great movie, Judge
Night. But he let
me down. You know, I think what he got to
hair plugs, he just thought he was too cool for school.
I agree. He looked phenomenal
losing that hair in PCU.
He absolutely did. So something, something
earlier on
Emilio Estabez is
the nervous nilly in this part of the movie where it's like
we need to call the cops, we need to go to the cops. We're not going to go
to the cops because I hate cops,
says Keith David. Meanwhile, we've got
this corpse out of here. They put it in the bathroom.
Emilio goes to the bathroom.
This is great. And he realizes he can't go because the,
oh, by the way, because it's the early 1990s,
Of course, you're going to put the dead corpse with a Richard Nixon mask on it.
Yes, you have to do that.
Definitely.
Another weird thing, there is a picture of Nixon in the bathroom.
Yes.
Is there?
On the wall, it's either in the bathroom or maybe like a bedroom.
Somewhere in this house, Charlie has a framed photo of Richard Nixon.
This is, and guess who else does?
The dude.
Oh, that's right.
Bowling.
That's right.
Oh, right. Nixon bowling.
That's right.
Hey, uh, hi.
Emilio Western is for Catherine Bigelow.
what the fuck you came to that party too you and Andrew wanted to look at my script and all of a sudden now there's Richard Nixon masks all over this hit point break this is a stretch goodbye but yes I do like he literally talks to before you see that it's the the corpse he's like I can't do this with you staring at me and it turns and it's like there's the corpse yeah pretty great so he's like dragging it out wouldn't you know it at this point uh Dean
Cameron. Dean Cameron comes in
as the pizza boy.
Pedro's pizza and
pancakes were tall. Pretty funny.
Fucking California. What a nightmare it is.
Dude, that is the ultimate
fucking stoner business. Are you kidding me?
For the wake and bake, he got your
pancake. For the rest of the day, you got your pizza.
And of course, Dean Cameron, you might know from
summer school, played chainsaw
in that bunch of 80s movies
and stuff. He's always at the
light when he pops up for me anyway.
Probably an 80s Coke buddy of the Estabelle.
brothers. Oh, that could be.
Is he in any other movies with Charlie or
Emilio? That's a good question. I do not know at this
time, Senator. Neither of them
appear in summer school, unfortunately.
That's Mark Harmon.
But so he
sees Emilio moving the body and then
instantly Keith David kidnaps him.
You've seen too much.
So Keith David says that this guy would just great. I also
just love how happy and gingerly
Keith David was going to the door.
Yeah. He's like, oh, like the pizza.
He's so excited for him.
Fliping the rifle.
around like yeah yes uh keep david great line uh we need some rope and he's doing when he says
we need some rope he's got this crazy eyes look on his face like oh great now it's kind of like i'm
back in the shit i'm tying a dude to a chair yeah the which we do get the back of this shit
uh because he is the kids tied to the share he's got a tie in his mouth and you know
emilio's like we should feed him you know it's uh you know it's it's inhumane
to not feed him. And Keith
David goes into Vietnam Vietnam mode
like the enemy doesn't deserve to eat
and like whatever else he's going on.
He also has a vision of
him as a Viet Cong prisoner
and Emilio in the
army fatigues trying to give him
food. Are you going to do a little of that
going on and a gong noise
right after it and you're kind of like
it is 90 but goof
please don't please don't
please don't yeah. But so like he's
freaking out about that. The commie bastard gets
no food. That's what he yells.
And then, you know, we're cutting back.
Back at foo by, I would have snapped his
leg, his neck like a twig.
Yeah, now Charlie's getting closer to his lady
with the phrenology and she's like, wow,
phrenology really is interesting.
It's like, come on, man. This is where the
blowjob joke is with the visual
gag of her head being in his lap,
but he's just doing harmful,
almost said harmful. I guess it is harmful
phrenology because it's been discredited
it's a piece of shit, science.
But I was going to say harmlessly touching her.
And she's like, you know what? I mean, you get into this apartment.
When you go out and go dancing or wherever the fuck she wants to do, she wants to like go
to a different part.
I mean, she's got to be, who's driving is my question?
She is very fast in a sports car with no top on it, dude.
That's a real, you're just fucking waiting for it.
Because she's just, and when they see, when across the way, they see them leaving.
They're like, oh, shit.
Now we have to follow them.
And they have to bring the dead body.
have to bring their hostage.
So it's like it's one crazy night, ladies and gentlemen.
And it's a great convoy that winds up being created right here.
Because she's like, all right, let's go do something.
They peel out.
And then Keith David's like, we got to go follow them.
They peel out, no, Emilio's pickup truck.
Then the goons are there back at the apartment complex.
They follow Emilio back out.
And then the garbage men goons follow in the back of the caravan here.
and we're all going out for our adventure.
Yes.
They go to the beach Charlie and Carl and Susan do to make out and hang out,
you know, having a good time.
Just on this date.
Yeah.
You're investigating a murder.
And who is this strange man that just appeared in your house with a fake job?
Yeah, it's, well, it's your buildings for aologist and you're going to have sex with him.
Charlie has a line here where they're on the beach and he goes,
I think my body's going into shock from all that alcohol.
And I was like, where did you go between the apartment and the beach?
Or was all the drinking done at the apartment?
They were hitting it at the apartment.
Well, you know, he's like, I need to sit down for a second.
They sit down and they, she starts kissing him.
And he's like, what was that for?
He's like, say what, you don't like it?
And then they start full on kissing him.
Uh-huh.
Hell yeah.
Back on the beach.
The, I guess the other garbage men are putting a car bomb in his, in the Susan's car.
or what are they, they're cutting, he's fucking with the brakes.
We are doing some very hazardous brake cutting, I think, or maybe cutting, like the alternators
or it won't turn over, whatever it is.
And the other guy is like, whoa, I thought our beef was with Carl and James, not their
girlfriend.
He's like, that's the same thing.
Yes.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Meanwhile, Emilio, like, they're trying to ditch these dudes or whatever.
They run some red lights here.
Oh, that's what it is, because they're trying to follow Charlie.
they run a red light in the truck
they get pulled over and wouldn't you know
it the bike cops are now just patrol
cops right and here we go
dude this is a Keith David A plus
performance in this scene right here
he's got the pallet gun he's screaming
pointing a gun at this cop
and of course they're shitty
you know cowardly cops
and you know the dude immediately
does everything that Keith David says
or whatever end result of this all being
they are stripped to their underpants
and tied
pseudo-human centipede style
one behind the other
to a carousel kind of thing
on a playground
and yes
when they move and try to get free
the joke is it looks like
they're fucking one another
yes and they're
even Emilio who's been terrified
at this point
is laughing at this moment
we're all having a great time
there are some great you know
Keith David lines in that
like you were mentioning
one of the things he says like
human life means very little to me right now
and that he thrives on misery
that's pretty great
I love before I pull this trigger
and change the way you feel about me.
And it's like,
don't you think I would know that the sound
of a flashlight dropping makes a completely
different sound than a revolver hit in the pit?
It's so good.
Pretty great.
Pretty great.
Keith David is excellent in this.
I wish he did more comedy.
I agree.
I mean, he's actually very funny.
I mean,
in a difficult scene in there's something about Mary.
Oh, I think you're going to say Requiem for a dream.
But yes, that's true.
He's great in that too.
He is very funny.
The father of Warren and Cameron Diaz, yeah.
But yeah, we are, we're making out two.
How'd you get the beans above the friend?
Oh, right, that's Keith David's line.
My friend will always quote,
The bathroom is that way, which is he's just so mad at him at that moment.
It's so funny.
Yeah, no, third world's reggae ambassador.
Another great song playing right here.
They're making it out.
Uh-oh, they get besieged by Biff and Mario, the two hitmen.
But they are bickering hitmen, and Biff has a gun, and Mario has this taser they brought.
And he's like, why'd you bring a laser gun, you stupid moron, Italian Buk, or whatever they're doing?
Really starts laying into this guy's ethnicity kind of out of nowhere, which is weird.
Earlier in the movie, he said, don't talk about my mother.
He then talks about his mother.
He's like, you know what, your mother did, your mother did.
Yeah, that's right.
you know what that's it
and he
Mario Tazes
they get the jump on them
they're walking
marching them
ideally to death march
and like you know what Mary
you know a Biff too much
he just he zapsed him
with some force lightning
which I really enjoy
you see him the teeth and everything
it's really coursing through
this dude's body for a while
it's kind of great
yeah they use this opportunity
to kind of like
run away for a little bit
but also I timed it
because this is where Charlie
is like, oh, by the way,
Burger is dead. It's
67 minutes into this movie before
this lady finds out that her boss
slash boyfriend has been murdered. It's kind
of weird that the movie goes along
this long before this character
finds out what the movie's about. Yes. And
at this point, as they're running, he
admits, uh, my name is Carl. I'm
a garbage man. Right. I've been watching
you for weeks. Six weeks.
I think he says. Yeah. I'm in love with you or whatever
and, you know, blah, blah.
Your boyfriend is dead. And da-da-da-da-da-da.
Trust me, Jack is dead.
She slaps them and she's like, that's for lying to me.
And then she slaps me again and he's like, that's for watching me.
Now let's go to the cops.
And I'm like, yeah, I guess so.
I mean, it's all because of the handsome factor.
Yeah, it is.
It does a lot of heavy lifting.
Yeah.
Then they yell like police.
They see the squad car.
They run over.
It's the playground from before the two guys are chained together.
They look like they're, you know, and then Charlie's like, oh, sorry, fellows.
And this is where it's at its most homophobic and it's nothing to do with Charlie Sheen.
This woman sees them and goes, eh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's just a fucking earnest.
It's very strange.
I put also like anyone fucking in a public park on a playground, Mary go around at night, might elicit in you.
But your point, you're right as well.
But yes, if, yeah.
You know, there's some not great stuff in here, but, you know, whatever, you know, it's, it's all over the time.
of the time. Bill and Ted's got the big F-bomb.
This movie does not have the big F-bomb, ladies
a gentleman. Who do you
who do you trust?
Exactly.
They steal this police car from them
briefly. They get run off the road
immediately. Here's
Potter Dam and a real
legion of goons. I don't know where
these guys came from. He upped the goon
factor by 12. And then you
never see them again after this apprehension
scene, but they all start to come out here. And he's got
a great like, allow me to introduce
myself Maxwell Potterdam
the third and he's like
you may have seen this recent
interview with me in like
California living or whatever the magazine is
he goes with the exception of me being
misquoted several times
something something something
he puts them each in an oil
barrel in a in a disposal
barrel and he's like you'll
now spend the rest of your days at the bottom
of the creek and it's like we're going to
bury us alive's like oh you'll probably run
out of air before then which is like
I don't know, just shoot these people on the head
And in a more serious film
Yes, if this is men at work directed by Martin Scarsese
That's exactly what happened
But we are goofily putting our characters in barrels
Yes, yes
And I think actually this little action sequence with
Because I mean like basically Emilio
And everybody's like behind them
Well yes, they're watching it
And they're like well like Lewis
How are we going to do this like with just a pallet gun
Now the pizza man knows
You've been holding me hostage all night with an air rifle
even though he just still hangs out
because that's what happens in this movie
everyone just goes with the flow
you're a part of the shenanigans at this point
pizza man like it's one crazy night
and then of course right as this is going to happen
they're about to save the day
a couple of rent-a-cops come
upon them and
breaking the fourth wall entirely
Keith David just looks at the camera and goes
I hate rent-a-cops too
it is so funny that he just breaks the fourth wall
for no reason I think it's funny
I think it's because he's alone and there's no one
for the character to talk to so it's like
I'll talk to the fine people in this audience
and these men are armed but of course
when we cut back they're instantly disrobed
and handcuffed together
in the same fashion as the other cops
I kind of like that it starts being
just keep David's calling card
like that's the thing I mean I think he's
into it
yeah yeah
meanwhile yeah so Charlie Sheen is in a barrel
it falls off a fork lift
and he emerges
there with Emilio
who was being sort of chased by forklifts briefly here.
Yes.
And now there's all these.
It turns into like a two, a 1996 2D beat him up game.
Like there's just all these dudes in hazmat suits that they're just beating the shit out of.
Yeah.
Oh.
Ah.
And it's like, I got to find which one has Susan in it.
I'm like, oh, that's her name.
Okay.
Now she's a character.
But no, it's kind of fun.
We're driving holding on the back of this truck.
This is pretty cool.
it's a cool little sequence of action nice little stunts here yes the doors are coming off and they're flying into traffic in and out it's fun and like i yell and quipping at each other it's like a buddy cop movie to eric's point but it doesn't um i don't think they're doing it for the wides yeah but on those close steps like i would kind of you know like to know how they actually did this if it was a moving vehicle going admittedly slower and you had charlie and amelia swinging from them or if it was it
was a big soundstage set up and we're just having a rear projected as if the car was driving
because they are swinging off these things and a couple of those shots it looks like it's the two
of the actors hanging from the truck you hear this folks well-crafted it is i agree
all right so putting that down on our first sequel we need more well-crafted stunts yes we'll be
the first one successful get some of some of the best of the best in the stunt community for men at work
tone down the homophobia yeah oh yeah no gongs no gongs gongs gongs are out promise no gongs no
gongs. Gong, gong.
They find
Susan as they get to sort of the beach
area here. Well, they all
level of the vehicle. No, they're going
to the dump site.
The dump. Yes. And he has
to, he's like
kicking all these barrels trying to find it.
While like this, there's a war
raging around this year. This was giving me
Raiders of the Lost Dark vibes a little bit.
Oh, yeah, good call. Truck's fun.
And also where's Marion in these
baskets? Oh, good call.
But, like, you know, Keith David and Emilio, like, laying waste to all these hazmat guys.
I love just Keith David repeatedly throwing guys down a hill.
Like, that's the move.
It's a beat-up game.
Yeah, it's fun.
And you get these little one-liners, too, like Charlie Sheen grabs a tossed away little baseball bat, hits some guy in the head.
And Amelia's like, what are you doing?
I'm protecting the environment.
Yeah.
They do, like, start fighting back here more with pop.
Potterdam also, she's, Susan sprays Potterdam in the face.
Potterdam, like, is about to come out.
Like, they've beaten up all the bad guys, it seems.
Potterdam is the, the big boss.
And they've set up this gauntlet for him to go through.
So she, yeah, she goes spray paint in the fucking eyes.
That's awesome.
Brutal.
Well, first he throws a doll at him or something.
Yes.
Which is just a chilling, scary moment to, dude, up to the next horror.
Oh, yeah.
What you didn't, what you didn't count on was my lawyer.
army of garbage people.
And there's just like people that live
at the dump. Get out of our dome.
We give him feces
whenever he wants.
And he gives us food at pornography
he finds in the garbage.
Yeah.
This is where the turtles would probably show up.
Yeah.
Shit delivery.
But Charlie
surfing a tidal wave of shit.
Oh, no. Yes. Yes.
Emilio and
Charlie get a
a high five garbage can
lid on this dude's head.
That's a good one. I like pizza man
pretending to be a chauffeur and it's like
oh, write this way to your limousine. And it's
just the limo, but the corpses in the
backseat all dolled. So it's
like it's scary for him. Yeah.
And then he jumps out, he runs
out, he's screaming and what do you
know? Pellet gun. Right. Yes.
And then he goes down the shoot and
falls into his own toxic spills.
Kick the man into the can.
We could have got a good robot.
cop ending here. He turns into the
Yes, dude. I made that
note. I was like, this dude should start melting
like that guy in Robocop. I wouldn't mind it
because all he does is just like, oh, I'm
defeated. Yeah. Type of thing and that's
it. Cue Zicky Marley
right here. Yep. And we
look up on our crew. Now we're
a crew together. We're all good friends. Oh, yeah.
And we're all laughing at this guy.
Pizza man's laughing. You know,
everyone's, you know,
Keith David. We're all having a good
time with our one crazy night.
And, like, that's the movie.
That is exactly the beginning of the movie.
There's no, yeah, there's no opening the surf shop epilogue there.
Nothing about, you know, Keith David's going to be their garbage man partner forever or anything
like that.
We like that joke of the cops tied together so much.
We reprised that where it's almost dawn and a dog is like barking at them or whatever.
I'm about to piss on him.
Yes, that's right.
And then, uh, then we do over the credits do get a, uh, like a radio shows.
It's a K-Rock DJ that was playing on the radio when Emilio wakes up on the beach.
Right.
So he, you know, some, she's like, some woman calls into his show.
Hi, my name is Stacy.
I date this guy.
He's a pizza man.
He never came home last night.
I think he's with another girl or whatever.
Dump him.
Dump his ass or whatever.
It's just like the last gag of the movie being like this callback to a radio station joke that has nothing to, you'd figure it would be like,
You know, my garbage men were out fighting
in the street last night or something. It's no, it's just
the pizza guy. Like, it's such a subtle
little joke. In a lesser movie
would be like, oh,
and the plunder industries
was shut down for toxic, you know,
it would wrap up the movie, but instead
we're punishing pizza man.
And I like that. As far as you know, like
the public at large does not
learn in this movie that
a mayoral candidate was murdered
in the town. Like that is completely
irrelevant to the story, which is great.
And our leading paint thinning concern is now in hot soup.
Where is America going to be able to thin their paint?
Not from Potter, damn, paint supply, I'll tell you that much.
But that is the end of this movie.
We'll go around to the horn here.
Final Thoughts, Stephen Sadek.
Really hardy recommend.
I was, again, like, especially comedies from when I was a kid, really very rarely hold up.
Yeah.
I was laughing.
I was charmed.
I think that, you know, Amelia and Charles, this is a great way to end Sheen Pearl, I think.
It is.
on Charlie's Strong suit, which is comedy
and also booching off
his family, both
at the same time. You're going to cast
me in the movie, right?
But I think
there are
two charming leads and then Keith
David's a fucking house on fire
this whole fucking movie. John Gets is a lot of fun.
It really moves.
It's so low stakes in like
90s nostalgia
and some of that probably
waxes over some of the
more iffy parts.
But honestly, again, I will say, like,
for the time, the iffy parts are less than they could be.
Yes.
Just putting that out there, it's a hardy recommend for me.
Big time recommend for me.
Yeah, it's really stunning that this is not a minefield,
we'd call it, you know.
Yeah, those couple parts are whatever.
But yeah, you know, I think those Bill and Ted movies did it worse.
So there is that.
No, this was really surprising.
how much this held up
for me. I think it's great. The chemistry
between the two of them is great and yes, ending on
Charlie's Strong suit, which we've been saying this entire
month, is indeed
Eric, Eric, is indeed
comedy and as I turn it to Eric for the
final thought. Yes, I mean, it's a big
recommend for me. I think part of our
enthusiasm, yes, maybe is the nostalgia
factor and some people will watch this
and think what a stupid movie. These guys are
morons. We are dumb.
But
we're watching it now as an adult
it subverts genre
it's it's doing the
buddy cop thing
they're not getting medals at the end
like you know
terminal velocity
or Star Wars
right or like
you know an accommodation
for the police officers
that brought down this corruption
scandal right none of that
you just you get in you get out
they're just garbage men
we're flying
they're floating in the wind
like the trash
I don't know I had a great time
revisiting this
there you go folks
but that is going to do it
for this
episode of WeA. Movies, that's going to do it for Sheen Pearl
Adios. We'll see you
never again. But if you
want more, we hate movies action, don't worry about
it, folks. We got it covered over on the Patreon.
Patreon.com slash we hate movies.
Where, yes, at the start of Sheenpril, we
did release a We Love Movies episode all about
Oliver Stone's Wall Street.
Kind of one of Charlie's
first big movie roles.
That is out there right now. A lot of people out
there re-evaluating Wall Street. I do appreciate
that. It is a fantastic film,
IMO. We are also looking
this month at
Face, Darren.
What the fuck was that guy's name?
On the Gleap Glossary?
On the Gleap Glossary for the uninitiated,
this is our Star Wars side show
where I talk about an old EU character
and the guys laugh at it and me,
and we're talking about Garrick,
Garek Face, Lauren,
who's an X-Wing pilots and child actor.
That was an amazing thing to learn
stuff like that existed in the Star Wars.
universe on animation damnation we uh speaking of finding out things that existed there's something
called there was something in the mid 90s called skeleton warriors skeleton warriors skeleton warriors
we're having fun on that one yes it's a good good time it's a cartoon about skeleton people
so tune in to our episode on it uh we dropped a once on a lifetime talking about the most
recent stalked by my doctor movie which is indeed called just what the doctor ordered starring the
magnificent Eric Roberts. That's out now. Melro 2.10 this month.
The worst episode of 902.1 we have covered. It may ever cover.
And then, you know, a pretty decent, horny, bonkers, Melrose place.
And we've got on, for the top tier patrons only a, a brand new side show called Too Old for
this shit. We're going to be recapping a bunch of different stuff. Right now we're
recapping X-Men 97. The excellent X-Men 97. This show seems to get better every week, folks.
I don't know. And so does our recap better every other week.
Definitely, yeah. So we get better and better. And by the way, if May 14th, we'll be in Houston, Texas, at the Houston Improv, talking about Robocop 2. And then the very next day, May 15th in Austin, Texas at Cap City Comedy Club. We'll be talking about from Dust Till Dawn. Come on out and let's have some fun.
Yes, absolutely. And speaking of those tour dates, and Steve was mentioning the biweekly release schedule of Too Old for the shit. Just want to clarify that the time this episode,
on Men at Work comes out. The next
drop date
for a too old for this shit episode
will be May the 10th
by the way. We'll be covering
three episodes on that one because we've been
on tour. We had the Atlanta gig
which was a lot of fun. So we
will be bundling three Eps
into one so look for that on May the 10th.
But the first three episodes
of this X-Men 97th season
is out now. It has been incredible stuff.
Now, here on
We Hate Movies, which if you're listening to this on the
free feed you were probably inundated with some commercials we got some great news for you
if you're not hip to that on the patreon eight dollar level and up ad free we hate movies every
week same exact we hate movie show just with no commercials including next week's episode
steve what are we getting into next tuesday charlie she and prill couldn't do it does not it's over
we're not doing we're not doing emilia may no oh no please don't please uh we are doing uh lethal
weapon three hell yeah look at this speaking of fucking love it's man
Joe Pesci in this lethal weapon three
with the blonde hair. It's a lot.
Oh boy, is it ever.
This is the beginning of René Russo in the series as well.
I believe that's also correct, yes.
It's been a while for me in this one.
It's my least favorite lethal weapon movie.
Even though four is bad.
Wow.
Because I find, here's why.
I find the villain.
Maybe it's not the worst lethal weapon movie,
but it is definitely the lethal weapon movie.
with the worst villains.
Got it.
I feel that.
And I think the day new ma' of the movie, from what I remember it,
it's been a few years since I've seen this one,
I'm not crazy about driving through the construction site.
It's a downward swing here in the franchise.
We start, I feel like lethal weapon started really strong.
The second one was great, too,
and then we start getting into diminishing returns.
Big time, big time.
So next week, we'll be talking about the start of those diminishing returns
when we chat about Lethal Weapon 3.
Until then, I've been Andrew Jupin.
Students in, Eric Siska.
Take it easy.
