This week on We Hate Movies, it's a sequel, no one.
And I mean, no one wanted to do.
It's Beverly Hills Cop 3.
I'm Axel Juppin.
I'm Stephen Sadek.
I'm Uncle Eric.
Okie dokey, okie dokey, dokey.
And we hate movies.
I love you, okay dokey.
Hello everyone, welcome to we hate movies, thank you for tuning in, as always. That's right. Just in time for the soon to be released, Axel F.
or Beverly Hillscoff
accident. We can't just put a fucking four
in anything. You have
to reference
the franchise somehow. You can't
you cannot have a title that doesn't have
Beverly Hills Cop in it. It has to be there.
So the F is for Foley, not for the cinema
score it's good a kid.
I like that one
though. This is indeed a
conversation all around Beverly Hills Cop 3 from
1994. Somehow
Jurassic Park was out in the world
before the third Beverly Hills Cop movie. I
I can't believe that. And of course, directed by a, uh, uh, criminal. Well, no, no, no, no. I was going to say, you know, accused. Chapa. What that, whatever the hell happened to him. Uh, helicopter parents. Manslaughter director, John Lampitz. That's right. Uh, that's vehicular manslaughter. Oh, yeah. That's a big vehicular. We're going to, look, yes, it is vehicular manslaughter. I want us to underline the slaughter in this. That's, let's really put a big line under that one. Oh, my God. Did you hear some of those quotes that Eddie Murphy.
he had said about the incident. It's wild that they
work together after that. Right, because he said, I'd work with
John Landis again when he's able to work
with Vignor. Yeah. Yeah.
And like, dude, what was that phone
call where it was like, uh, hey, Eddie,
it's John Landis. Yeah, the heat's really
coming down. I mean, there's, would you please be a character
witness for me at this trial? No,
goodbye. Absolutely not. I'm going to go hang out
with Charles Dance. Excuse me. He's doing the Steve Sadec
maneuver. No, I won't character witness you.
Absolutely not. No, I was
a character witness for a dog once.
Yeah, yeah. I wrote a letter for a Joe's dog.
For a dog. There was
accused, wrongfully accused
of biting a girl at a party.
But there were multiple witnesses that that
lady was fucking with a dog and that
dog that I happened to know.
There's witnesses that that lady was
fucking with that dog. And I had
evidence. My character witness
that dog was a
tremendous public service
record. Oh, it was a hero dog.
It was a goddamn hero dog. Did he
actually like bring you in to do? Because
He texted me to write a like
I wrote a letter
Oh yeah okay that's what I did so we're both
Character witnesses for that dog
Didn't testify at the trial
No that would have been fun
Does seem like he had all the names of everyone
Who was at parties with this dog
You know what smart move
So they didn't execute it
They did not execute the time did though
Yeah how's the dog doing now
I just said time executed it
Oh time did
Yeah I guess it comes for us all
It does especially dogs go quick
When he said time did
I thought there was like a court term
not that I know
like you tell the
stenographer time did
but also
Murphy had like
reportedly put
uh landis at a headlock
on the set of uh
what he calls trading places
no coming to America
oh yes
because there was like so
there was like budgetary disputes
with the crew
and then like
land is like go talk to Eddie
fucking Murphy
and then
all apocryful from Eddie Murphy's
point of view
he was playfully putting
landis in a headlock
and then made him pass out
which is
I just picture that
and I'm like
chef
kiss. That's one of the funniest things. He did that
shit. Oh, yeah. Exactly. And also, come on.
And you know everyone wanted to beat up John
Landis. Of course. And I mean, Murphy,
I mean, if you'll believe those Charlie Murphy stories,
he had a crew. He was going around
in Hollywood fucking shit up. Absolutely.
That's what Entourage should have been.
Oh, my God. That would have been a much more interesting
show. It was just based on the life of Eddie Murphy
instead of Mark Wahlberg. Yes.
Please. Yes, please. Because also then
you could have said it in the 80s. It would have been less obnoxious.
I mean, that's the problem with entourage. It was a goddamn
hero story as opposed to like,
No, they're just kind of petty assholes that, like, muscle their way into parties and, like, fuck with people a lot.
You know what I mean?
Like the lady with the dog.
Exactly.
Stop fucking with people.
This is a movie that I...
Or dogs.
Sorry.
Either or.
Don't fuck with anybody.
Just let everybody be, man.
How about that?
This is a movie I constantly forget exists.
How about that?
Let's start there.
I had this.
Oh, yeah.
I love this movie as a kid.
Really?
I was a dumb kid.
I had this off the Columbia house.
So I had, like, the fucking real tape.
You had like four copies of it.
I think I only saw this like twice, maybe.
It just, I love, the whole series.
I love, well, that's because I love the first one.
I hated the second one as a kid, and I want to go back.
Really?
I think I was too stupid to get it.
I remember liking one and two, but it's been a while for you.
Well, one and two, I have seen countless times.
Like, yeah, I can't even count it.
But the third one, I remember always liking, but like it is very clearly a lethal weapon
for issue here where, like, it's, we're not going as far as,
had the family really come in but
like everything is subdued
everything is just kind of funnier than it
should be like it's just kind of buddies
ribbing each other but it's also weird
like Eddie Murphy is particularly not
funny in it like everybody else is
goofball extreme and then Eddie Murphy
trying to because you know again
all these apocryphal IMDB trivia things
like he was playing down the comedy because he wanted
to like be more of like a Denzel
kind of action star or whatever like serious
gritty whatever so it's like him
and fucking what's his name plays playing
Ellis Duwold, who I think, like, that's a
great villain. They're in one
movie, and then literally everybody else
in this movie is in another movie.
Whoever played Alice Duwold, the guy, he's,
he was the
snotty
violinist from Ghostbusters.
He's also Saliva Man
from X-Files. He disintegrates people with the saliva.
But clearly
a lot of people passed. Like, this is not
the guy you make your foil.
Tim Carhart. And he's great in this movie.
The energy of it does, I do feel the Landis thing there.
Like the tension, like, I also, yeah, I'm sure the Denzel thing was part of it.
But I also just, I'm like, he doesn't want to do this.
No, right.
Like, and he worked with somebody that he would say he'd rather work with somebody murdered.
Yes.
It's also working.
I feel like the first two movies are more grounded in like a reality.
Yes.
And this is like a heightened fake reality, but he's trying to be more grounded as the character.
Right.
That's against itself.
It goes against self.
But I do get that as like.
We're moving, it is a Hollywood movie now.
Like the first one was Detroit, I think Detroit into L.A.
And of course, Detroit and LA, of course, Detroit and LA, the second one.
But, like, it wasn't specifically dealing with the entertainment business.
And this one is centered completely on the entertainment business.
I also think that there were versions of the script.
There was a lot of versions of the script about Axel going to England.
We were trying to get this character in the UK.
I think that's probably a better idea because at least you get the fish out of water comedy there.
Yep.
Here he knows, he knows which freeway.
way to take. He's been to L.A. quite a few times.
It's well-versed. Yeah, the fish-out-of-water
thing just isn't there anymore because it's like,
yeah, man, you don't need to ask for directions anymore.
I think that's when you're officially not a fish
out of water. Exactly. You know the good
restaurants? You know how to get to the police station
without using a map? Like, exactly.
But I think the problem there is, like,
you'd have to then call it something
really stupid. Like, Beverly Hills
Cop goes to the UK.
Yeah, I guess that's a tough one. Beverly Hills, Bobby?
Yeah. Oh. Maybe.
But in Ronnie Cox, very specifically,
He read the script, he hated it, he didn't want to do it.
And then the guy who played Taggart, whoever that gentleman's name was.
Not Hector Al-A-Lazondo.
Yes.
Also walked, and they just very clearly just gave those lines to take out Hector-A-Lazzo.
But Tagger's back for the new one.
He certainly is.
He's back in that trailer, dude.
The Hector-A-Lazondo thing is insane.
They barely changed anything, right?
They just, like, let's have them look the same act.
He's a surly older gentleman who's bald.
Got it.
It's incredible.
They call themselves out a little bit on that
is because when they get,
there's a scene where like everybody gets a,
there's an attack on Wonderworld,
everybody get there.
And like,
Billy does the Axel.
And like,
that makes sense.
Right.
He's known him for years.
Yeah.
Hector Elizondo says,
Axel.
Yeah,
and he drops his taco.
And I'm like, what?
That's Taggart should have been dropping that taco.
You're absolutely perfect.
That's the only person who can say it like that.
By the way, played by John Ashton.
Ashton, that's the guy's name.
And he's great.
He's great.
movies. He's a good surly dude
and he pops up and he's just a big surly
dude and like in Elizondo's
softer but like they're
trying to get him there and I mean I love Victor Elizondo
yeah I'm not going to complain but it is
just so it's that oh wow
he's acting like him and he looks just like him too
the problem is they should have made Elizondo
the Ronnie Cox like boss character
because then he's not on the same level
as as well I guess
no because then they sort of elevate Judge Reinhold
into the boss role he's like
like the head of this.
Elizondo's kind of pathetic in this movie.
Yeah.
He's just like S and Duald's D
the whole movie. He's a fucking loser.
Just to get that second contract kind of a thing,
that second gig. I think that they try
to play that for like a
is Elizondo in on it? Like as
the new character. Which would be great
as opposed to Stephen McHaddy
reveal at the end of this movie.
Yeah. No one's it. Eddie Murphy's
not interested in it. Stephen McHaddy
isn't interested in it. It's so bad
that like, and I do not like
being they you could drive a truck through it sleuth i don't want to be that guy but i remember
re-watching it yesterday and just thinking like they don't even explain how axel figures out mcaddy's also
crooked yes exactly he's just like oh yeah there's another guy that's in on it too and like mcaddy's
like you got me and pulls and i was like no no no no mcaddy don't wait a second he hasn't said
how he knows it's you well that's in the other and the first two part of what's grounded about
them is that those two are based in police work like it is the investigation is a huge part
especially in the second one my god but like
the second one's almost a paperwork movie at parts
I mean I really like that movie
but yes it is a lot of offices
um the third one the thing
the only time you see him doing cop work
really is when he gets the
slip of paper and from the
dust they got from the truck
the truck right right right right like the one time and like
everything else is just kind of like goofy and fun
he's running around shooting his gut
in public no accountability
to that point they fucking
it begins with them
about to take down
a chop shop
that's thing and
Detroit Michigan
130 a.m. They're just
talking and the Todd is
there of course the beloved
Captain Todd and then
what happens? You get like a
musical number like these
oh why you it's actually
kind of answers are crazy. It's kind of
wonderful one of the fat dancers is the
dude is one of the guys from usual
he's a ton of stuff.
Give them money. Give them money. Yeah, exactly.
You know who the fuck I am?
We do now, jerk off.
Sorry, I know that movie backwards and forwards.
But he's that guy, and they're just dancing to, like, Diana Ross or something.
I don't know what we're going for here.
But it's amazing because, like, nine minutes later, they're all annihiling.
Yes.
It's just weird because I guess Landis, whoever wants more comedy in the movie.
Here's a way to add some comedy.
But then, budding up against a gunfight, it doesn't really work.
It's really jarring.
And they're just doing a big dance routine.
And then here comes Ellis.
Wald and all his dudes and it's kind of amazing
the dude
from
Tony Lau or whatever that guy's name is
all stuntmen in
his chop shop just watching. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He's in it for like a split second. Yes. Yeah.
Oh, Al Lung
from like diehard
A bunch of trouble in Will China.
Love him. That's a blinking
you miss it like that dude's getting shot in the head.
That's the end of it. But yeah, like I feel
a good rule of thumb is like if you're
making a movie and so you're in your
filming a scene and you want to have
like jazz hands cutesy
Diana Ross fat guy dancing
you just got to check
a few pages ahead and be like we got any
squibs in this scene are there human
beings having their chest explode for gunfire
oh there is maybe
not the cute dancing at the top of it
why are they doing it like maybe if they're celebrating
this big deal that's about to go through
because apparently I guess mechanics
stole mint money
from the U.S. government and is now selling it
to Ellis DeWals to print in
Disney world. Wasn't it a beginning of heat
hijack? Like they took the truck
like they do it. Oh, right.
And they brought it here. Like, yeah, they have
a sideline doing illegal shit. But
I got to tell you, whenever you're
about to do an illegal deal, like be on your toes,
of course. But if you
see these people getting out of
a car with gloves on
immediately get some kind
of weapon in your hand. I would say
just shoot them just to be safe. But like,
hey, at least get a weapon out.
Because the outside Axel,
is like Todd is like, where's the SWAT team?
He's like, I cancel the SWAT team.
These are just low rung, chop shop guys.
I don't even do they have guns.
So, like, I think that's sort of the idea is like these guys
don't even know what they have.
Right, right, right, right.
They're like, sweethearts, I guess, because they're dancing around.
But it's also calling off the SWAT team is also his bravado.
I can do anything.
I mean, he needs to leave Detroit because, A,
the fact that only Captain Todd is murdered in this siege is insane.
Real lucky they didn't get the Joey Travolta.
Oh, man.
And isn't that a big loss?
It's like, you know, you get, you're doing this thing.
You specifically called off the SWATC, your boss gets shot with 50 bullets or whatever it is.
That's on you, right?
What do you, and then I'm going to leave the state for a while?
I don't think so.
I is like, why don't you hang out for a little bit?
Don't go anywhere, Mr. Foley.
We think you're projecting, Axel.
I think this is really your fault and you should really take it on this.
Oh, no, but then I'm going to murder someone in California.
Or I would murder a lot of people in California.
Well, you know what, that clears it.
That's, you know, we're all good, then.
That's fine.
The, so yeah, the Ellis DeWald comes in.
He wants to see the, the merchandise, which is kind of for money or whatever, the paper.
Right.
And he opens, he's like, pay the man, gentlemen.
And these guys open up these suitcases filled with machine guns that are covered by Wonderworld towels.
Dude, don't bring the towels from work.
How about that?
Let's just go to the fucking Kmart, get some pink fucking towels, whatever they got on the rack.
By the way, I want that to carry over for this new movie.
I want Axel Foley to be subscribed to Wonder Plus.
There's no Disney, it's Wonder.
Dude, honestly, like, I'll say hold your breath because you just might be able to breathe easy.
It would not surprise me if something like that exists.
He calls in a favor from Uncle Dave's son, because Uncle Dave's son, because Uncle Dave's
probably dead.
Oh, yeah, whoever Uncle Dave's son is.
Did he get him to get shot by some guy?
By Ellis DeWalt again.
He came back from the dead.
You're a black guy shot Uncle Dave.
Weird lines.
Such a bizarre drop in this movie.
It is a, I guess in the constants, a context of like word going through Beverly
Hills such as it is.
And I mean, that's what the first two movies are about.
It's like he's literally a black guy in Beverly Hills.
And he's from Detroit.
He's a tough guy.
Exactly. That's the fish out of water.
It's like, yeah, he's not from Los Angeles, but he's also just sort of like, it's really about a black guy being in Beverly Hills.
And all the stuff he has to deal with.
But like my favorite little, like, I guess it's a compromise, I guess is what it is.
But like the fact that they have to depict the LAPD, not as bloodthirsty Nazis, but actually like yuppies.
Like that's their main thing is they're all yuppies.
See, the real bad guys are security guards.
Yes, that's where all the real problems are.
You can just kill them indiscriminately.
How many of them were in on this fucking thing?
I don't.
I guess they all were.
Those people can be poor, Eric.
You know what?
So that, that's really the villain here.
Well, because isn't that also the thing that it's that weird thing about Beverly Hills is like they have their own, it's like their own police force outside of the LAPD.
Oh, really?
So it's like a weirder, like, insular kind of thing.
So it is kind of funny that they are like yuppie scum.
tennis court kissers.
It's supposed to be so funny
that he has to talk
into a fucking microphone
when he arrives at the LAPD
and that they've like
automated everything
and like made it like
type it in
wait for the something
and he's like rather than he walks in
and honestly it fucking slows
now what's good about those
original movies is that he is walking in there
and there's a workplace
that you can watch working
and like moving in concert
it's cool.
Not a lot of police stations
set design
in this movie. It's really just like Judge
Reinhold's office and that's kind of it.
So Ellis DeWald lays waste to all these dudes.
Yeah, yeah. Fantastic.
It's a fun looking
It is. Massacre. It's a great looking
massacre. But again, like one, yeah,
don't bring the merch from work. And also
I don't know, Ellis DeWold, you're up for
like fucking security guard of the year and all this
stuff. Maybe you don't go on
the mission. You have
all these underlings. You can't trust anybody?
Keep the captain on the ship. Don't go on the away
mission. Well, I'm always like,
all the cooking in Detroit so I want to try
some food while I'm there I'm going
it's like the capital of the enterprise like I'm
going on the away machine there's Detroit style
pizza on the surface last time
nobody died and I am really upset
about that so I'm going to
be here to make sure you slaughter fucking everybody
like that I have to imagine
what was the towel thing
was that to like get through like scanners
I don't know is that what like I don't even know
is the gun kind of greasy that needs to
be like held in the
It's going to ruin the suitcase.
I don't know why you would bring a towel that says Wonderworld, which is where you work.
Other than to give him the most obvious clue in the fucking world.
This is where I go.
It's free swag.
You can't resist it.
It's true.
But they biff a similar thing, too, because they steal a wallet from the lost and found at Wonderworld and use that guy's ID to rent the car.
And that's how they figure out to go to fucking Beverly Hills.
Yes, there's like two Wonderworld things that Axel's like, aha, it has to be Wonderworld.
Dude, that's on you, guys.
Like, real just criminal ineptitude here is what we're dealing with.
So Axel shows up, realizes, oh, shit, it's a huge raid.
All of his guys come in.
There's a great moment where some cops trip over a dead body, which I really enjoyed.
That's very funny.
This whole sequence is great.
It's a real good action sequence.
And, yeah, the inspector comes back, Todd here in the two previous films.
So you kind of are sniffing around, like, maybe this dude's not long for this world.
Sure enough, wouldn't you know it?
This dude is assassinated.
I love this guy.
Two in the back from Ellis DeWald after also being shot in the chest, I feel.
El DeWald got him, finished him off.
But also, Buck who likes to fuck is one of his guys.
Oh, really?
I think he's the guy who answers the door when Axel comes at first.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And this leads to him stealing a red sports car.
And it's kind of a funny thing here where it's like, oh, look at this hot sports car.
And then he goes to drive it, and it's clearly, like, in the process of being chopped down.
So, like, the doors and other shit are off it.
Makes for a nice little chase here, although it doesn't last particularly long.
I mean, the chase is amazing because they're in a big truck,
and there's a guy on the back of the truck with a huge machine gun inches away from Axel Foley,
shooting everything but that dude.
Big miss.
It's incredible.
Well, the city of Detroit did give him a force field after the second movie.
Oh, I see.
You are a representative of our people.
The violence is kind of wild here.
It's great. I love that guy that gets shot in the truck.
Jim Jarmish guy, yeah.
And he's asking DeWalt for help, and he's like, oh, I'll help you to kick him out of the door.
Yes.
And then he gets run over.
It's a great puppet.
You see, yeah, you see the little body in the street.
I love seeing bodies in streets.
There's a good thump, thump, as Axel drives over the corpse.
Jim Jarmish guy really great.
I was thinking he kind of looks like Kiefer Sutherland a little bit.
A little bit too, yeah.
But he definitely has the more Jarmish high Kramer hair.
I remember him in some, he's a, I got to look it up.
He's like a gunman, the final gunman in some movie.
I'm sure.
But this is like, oh, FX.
Oh, really?
Wow.
FX2, maybe.
Maybe.
It was against Brian Ben Ben.
That's all I remember.
Those are both state tunes.
Oh, you mean Brian Brown?
Brian Brown.
Yes.
Yes.
Oh, yeah.
Australia's Brian Brown.
So yeah.
So the chase is going and, uh-oh, he's teaboned by a car.
And here's Steve McCatty as the secret service.
Because I always forget, it's a weird.
He doesn't say secret service until later in the movie,
but when he does, I was like, oh, yeah,
it's that weird thing where the secret service
is also responsible with, like, money shit like this for some reason.
I think that's the main job.
And then it's like, oh, and also the president.
And also the president.
That's what a weird.
Because money's more, money is the president, basically, right?
Right.
You know, that's the thing.
That's America.
That's what you protect.
That's secret service for money.
I think that they made in 94,
Stephen McCaddy, out of Lance Hendrickson's genes,
just in case anything ever happened to Lance Hendrickson.
Yep. And they told them not to smoke as much.
And they bridged the DNA with a little Scott Glenn.
To fill in all the holes of the sequence.
It was FX2. It's the guy he kills with the clown.
Oh, yes. The clown kill is something else.
Henriksen DNA.
It smells like tobacco.
Yeah, they found it in tar, not amber.
But he is, I mean, he's exactly, Lance Everson, but not.
He's also looking so young in this movie.
I think I saw him in something recently.
He popped up in something.
But in this, I thought he was Lance Hendrickson for a minute.
Yeah, of course.
Oh, my God.
Better movie.
Probably.
Not to knock Steve McKeddy.
He's one of Canada's greatest character actor.
Yeah, the problem was is that he was fucking Hendrickson was too in demand.
They needed to make a second one.
They had to get another one in there.
That's true.
What else are you going to do?
Just not have Lance Hendrickson?
He probably didn't, you know what?
That was the thing.
He did Millennium and that they took him out of movies for a little bit.
Oh, sure.
That was a problem right there.
have the movie ecosystem be
Henrickson free while he's farting around
on Fox TV. Hollywood
just had a secret meeting and they're just like
what do we do if Lance is on
television for five years the fuck are we going to do
and they open there's like a back to tank
with like a naked Stephen McHaddy
it's like we have a solution
if we don't do something to direct a DVD horror
market is going to collapse we
do this with actresses all the time
this is one of the first times we've done it with an actor
of the band
we replace them all the time
but so yeah the inspector is dead
McCatty is like hey
back off here this is a fed thing
which that's only fanning the flames
for Axel Foley of course
we get the funeral
he's showing up to the and like here's the thing
is like Axel you have to show up to this funeral
but dude you fucking caused
this funeral to be scheduled
you are the killer is showing up to the funeral
as far as I'm and I'm sure it's supposed to be his buddy
Bruce. But if Al
Green is at the funeral,
people are remembering Al Green
at the funeral, not
Inspector Todd. Yeah. It's also
kind of great. Is he, is you
wearing as soon as you wear that lion's jacket? I can't
remember now. To the funeral? Yeah. I believe
he's got a, he's got a
I think there's a leather jacket on.
Okay. A black leather jacket, yeah.
No logo's on. Just wear
that letterman jacket in the funeral for
varsity. If not, how do they know
it's Axel Foley? Oh, excuse me, ma'am, it still has your
husband's blood on it.
I got a tux with a lion's emblem right
here. That's the greatest part.
So he goes up to the widow Todd
and she's like, I heard you
with my George when he died.
And he's like, well, yes, I was, ma'am.
And his last thoughts were with you. She's like,
that doesn't sound like him. And he's like,
well, actually, he said, Axel, you want a coffee break?
You got to catch that son of a bitch. And I would
still, like, even if she said it the first
I would, no, ma'am, he really did.
He was, he was weeping.
He was just like, yep.
Like, I would really push it.
Actually, he told me that.
He loves me when he does.
His last thoughts were of me.
His last words were actually, Axel, you're responsible for this.
Avenge me.
Essentially is what he said.
This could have been like an Uncle Ben moment.
I mean, I think it, I mean, I felt, I found that pretty touching when he's like, hey, man, hey.
Oh, yeah, no, Murphy does some good acting there when when the detector dies.
Which like, I look, I mean, if that was the, if people really did watch this and we're like, hey, he's got.
dramatic chops yeah i think i i love that dream girl's performance i he's great in that
incredible he's great how long it took to get that right finally because well like after this
what we were talking about both does well then there's nutty professor well that's saying
his career because he was a fucking tailspin that and then and then he got the the bug to do
kids movies because dr. doolittle was like 98 oh and that was massive that's how you print money
at wonder world don't show the early 90s it was like distinguished gentleman boomerang like
Oh, my God, after bob.
Those are rough.
I remember Boomerang.
I watched that a few times as a kid.
I was like,
Oh,
Distinguished gentleman's the one
where he's like a con man
who goes to Congress or something.
I don't think I ever saw that one.
That one, you should,
nobody needs to see that one.
The Boomerang one at least has the classic line,
man, the fat boys break up now with this.
Yes.
No, boomerang's a totally watchable movie.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But yeah, he was in like dire straits.
And then it's like this.
And that's like,
and also sucked him,
didn't do terribly well.
Well, and then this was like we're going back to the well to fix the these issues, but you hire a murderer to direct.
I think that is really the problem here, is getting a murderer back into the director's chair.
I think you should do that as less as possible.
It curses the production.
It really does.
There's some bad energy going around.
Any stuntmen killed in this movie?
I didn't read any of that.
Oh, I did not see.
No, I don't know.
No, yeah.
Oh, well, yeah, we did have a character that was supposed to play Greg Altman.
and that was that was scratched out at the last minute we didn't want him there
nothing happened nothing happened we had Greg Allman there and we thought he was
an interesting character so you know go get that son of a bitch cut to Beverly Hills
did anybody watch this with the subtitles on I did not so I think I did every single time
the theme song hits the very same yeah that's how it goes
Bo-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B.
But it's like the symphonic remix of...
Oh, yes.
Because what's his name, didn't come back to do the score?
Yeah, oh, fuck, I forgot his name.
He's great.
But...
Holt, I want to say Holt-Meyer?
No, that's not wrong.
Donald Holt-Meyer?
Fault line.
That guy did the score for it, but the actual, the tune, Axel F,
was written by Nile Rogers and Richard Hilton,
and this subtitle track doesn't let you.
you forget it because every time the theme
hits, the subtitles go
now playing Nile Rogers
and Richard Hilton's Axel F
every single time.
Oh, so that's why the movie's called. So wait,
did you stream it or did you...
I watched it on Paramount Plus. Oh, okay, so
maybe it's different then because my 4K
that I ordered didn't come yet because I have the other
two on 4K. I have the Blu-ray, the
three-pack on the Blu-ray, and that
didn't have Nile Rogers. It did have Axel F. It didn't have...
Oh, so it just said Axel F. Yeah, this was the whole credit.
amount stream of it was bad there was like the color was kind of not corrected dude that was
happening to me and I had to like stop it I would stop the video and restart it and then it would be
totally fine but that happened twice because I missed a couple of things and I backed up the file
or if I paused it and then when I would play it again the yeah the color was like I'm yeah like it would go
green for a second and I just watched the whole like well it's just green once in a while I mean it's
I don't do this is lovingly restored yeah we need that that delicate 4K to
come out. I think that's why my 4K didn't get delivered. It doesn't actually exist. They're like,
yeah, it'll be here. Oh, does it? Supposedly it exists. I still, I, dude, I ordered it. And then
it, like, the day it was supposed to come, like, totally fine Amazon Prime delivery. They were like,
oh, it's delayed. And I'm like, yes, it. It's not done being made yet. They found the new
cut that Ryan Swen did. Uh, who? It's, I was making a black hat joke. Oh, sorry. They delayed a,
the, uh, the, uh, 4K release. Oh, right. Uh, Ryan Swen, who, uh, uh, Ryan Swen, who
did the
Megshift director's cut
brought in all the extra
and rearranged it
the way Michael Mann wanted it.
They finally found
like a good cut of it
and like so the thing was delayed
happened.
Oh so they could put that cut on the disc
oh I see.
Because originally it was not
going to contain it.
I still need to watch that version.
I can't wait.
It's so fucking good.
It's so goddamn good.
But yeah,
we mentioned it.
He's contending with this information box.
He finally just gets out of the car
and walks in and you're like...
The information talks
look at it's English Spanish.
One joke is if there's a homeless person on your law
and press 15. That's like
Beverly Hill. That's a Beverly Hill.
But English Spanish, oh, this is woke.
Exactly. It is.
Yeah, exactly. What the fuck.
You got a woke, woke,
robot here. You don't tell me what to do.
He put some number in the,
woke bot, that's pretty good.
He puts some number in and it's like,
it starts like speaking Japanese or something.
Or French. Oh, it's French. Yeah, you're right, right, right.
So we go in, and here we go.
Billy, I almost call him Tackleberry.
What's his fucking?
and last name. Rosewood.
Rosewood, yes, of course.
Here he is
in all his glory and this promotional thing.
I love Judge Reinhold
explaining to him like what the job is
and like the green lines around Beverly Hill.
It reminded me of the Malaney bit.
Yes, yes. Everybody's in L.A.
Yes, exactly.
Neighborhoods.
Yeah, the neighborhood map of Los Angeles
and how it doesn't make any sense.
So he does the same thing, but with jurisdictions.
And his job title is the D-D-O-J-S-I-O-C.
And credit to Reinhold for.
We're saying it super fast every time he has to say it in this movie.
I like this bit.
I kind of wish it came to anything.
It doesn't.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
It's all about the green lines above.
A, we never really understand where Wonderworld is.
It's in Los Angeles proper.
That's all we know.
It's got a special like blinker on his thing.
I don't know why that is necessarily.
All I can think about when you see the blinker is that Great Simpson's joke when it's like
something, Homer does something.
And then you hear the lights going off and Lenny goes,
there goes Albany
they do pay it off
but it's in the worst possible
it just doesn't work
he uses it the one time
when he biffs the truck they find the truck
he's over-informed every department
and he's got the headset
and he's just like
which even so that happens
in the middle of the movie
so at the end of the movie
he should use all of his powers
for the right thing
and have it actually succeed
but hey but about an empty joke
an empty joke is also a good way
to watch that is also
So a good way.
Oh, a joke that goes nowhere.
Yes.
Yeah, I like that.
A way to do it.
That is a John Landis special, in fact.
Oh, is it not funny?
Could it not be funny to?
I got a Judge Reinhold recommendation for everyone.
Oh, dude.
You went on a judge kick.
Well, a little bit.
Not too much.
Well, what I was really on a kick on was this Cracker Jack movie series.
It's a movie series called Cracker Jack.
It's about this detective, Jack Wild.
Oh, my God.
Yes.
And he's a little.
It's not named Cracker Jack?
Well, he's Jack.
Jack, Cracker Jack.
Like that's not
Anyway, the first movie, it's
fucking Terry Silver from
Karate Kid 3. Oh, sure. Okay.
Plays. Cracker Jack? Yes. And Cracker Jack
too, as Judge Reinhold replaces him.
That feels like it should have been, the Reinhold was in the first
one and he got swapped out.
It's not. I think there's a third one and I think
it's like Bo Svensman or something.
Insanely different. Bo Sventson will
replace your action hero. In Cracker Jack too, Chris.
Okay. We get Judge Reinhold
in his underwear.
Nice. Tidy Whitties or Boxer Briefs?
What year are we talking about?
It's 90s. 80s? It's 90s.
Oats, my God.
I believe it's early 90s. I'll double
check in a second. But he fights
a guy in his underwear. Wow. And the guy
gets killed via his personal computer.
I think the guy like accidentally stabs
the monitor or something and he gets like
electrocuted and then he's got some quip. I forgot what it
was. Maybe it's like log off. Time to log off.
Yeah. That's not bad. But it's like
Judge Reinhold is the worst person
at delivering these lines and he adds this
it's so it's so it's
he's supposed to be tough he's supposed to be tough
that's no thank you he's dressed like
and I had to look it up and I think it was
last action hero was first
but he's dressed like Jack Slater
oh wow red t-shirt
leather jacket jeans yeah
the light wash jeans in this fight
do we get any Eastern promises
slip of the
cloth there or no my taint
I would have been great I would have loved
to see his fucking hog
Time to blow the weenie whistle.
His Russian prison tattoos.
His movies where he's the lead are always like, we've covered, what, at least one of them offbeat.
Offbeat.
And then what's that, the Nicholas Cage, New Orleans erotic thriller?
Oh, Zandle.
Zandle.
Those are both times when he was, like, he himself was trying to be serious at the time.
It's just, no, thank you.
He was a drippy doof.
Yeah, yeah, no thanks, man.
And he was, and he's great at that.
Yeah, of course he is.
Not the undercut Judge Reinhold, the dudes a legend.
But not in the zondolina.
He carries that vice versa.
He does.
He actually, that's a fine performance of it.
And it's a state, too.
97 is Cracker Jack, too.
Wow, 97's late for Cracker Jack.
Yeah, post Santa Claus.
Looks like it was also called hostage train.
That's a good, better title.
Ooh, that's good.
That's a nice poster.
These fellas are laughing at the poster for hostage christers.
It looks like the poster for Leslie Nielsen's wrongfully accused.
It does.
Yeah, it does.
If there was a movie where Judge Reinhold played an actor
that was a hot shot action hero, that would be behind him
and he'd be wearing a hat that said hostage train.
And it would be like, oh man, get off my set.
I'm the guy from hostage train or whatever.
Or it'd be like he's remembering like, oh, the good old days.
Like when I was filming hostage train before my career really derailed.
I think I always...
Is it a train full of hostages or is it hostage turned into a train?
They're stealing the trade
It's the hostage
It's not a Kronenberg movie
I'm turning into a train
I'm turning into a train
And someone's kidnapping me at the same time
Immediately
Please stop this
David Kronenberg's hostage trade
I would love that
This hurts so much
Oh yeah you thought the car crashes are bad
Huh? Oh yeah
You want to you want to test me
motherfucker guys got a gun news
Make the noises
Chuggin chugging
Check it chugging check it chagin chagin chagin chagin
I think I always thought this one came out later
because I put it in a very similar spot as Metro.
Oh, right.
I think Metro is 97 speaking of a hostage train.
Metro, I kind of think Metro's a better movie
because at least the director knows he's trying to be serious
that one. And it's like, okay, let's be serious.
And then they have, what's his name?
The crow villain.
Oh, God, if my goodness.
He's so good.
He was a no, Michael.
Michael Wincott.
from Nope
who's fantastic a Nope
Yeah
Yeah
Yes
That was like
That's genuinely like
Dark little cop drama
With some funny lines in it
But like
That is a better example
Of what he was trying to do
Yeah
And that movie got spanned
All the way
Every which way
And this movie I feel like
They kind of gave a soft okay to
Because it's like
Yeah
It's kind of panned
I did okay
I think it did
Yeah
So he meets
He meets up with Billy Rosewood
He explains Billy's new job
It explains that
Taggart's retired
Yes and here comes
Hector Elisando, hi.
And he's like, oh, Ellis,
are you going to Wonderworld?
I know who runs security there.
He's a great guy.
I'll take you there.
I just have to do something first.
Wait.
Wait.
Wait.
And then he just shows up and starts shooting people, basically.
He's like, I'll get you an appointment with him.
He's like, okay, cool.
And he just goes and he's like, oh, I have an appointment with Ellis DeWald.
Like, no, you don't.
You have to buy a ticket, $35, which I looked up is $75 in today's.
Which that's still.
way cheaper than what it costs
to get at Disney World these days. It's over a buck. It's over a hundred
dollars. Big time. And that's for like the base
like yes. You got to pay to use the bathroom
pass probably. But this is
like the only
this is all left of like
Axel Foley who comes from like
dirt beginning. Yes exactly. Like this
is and it just doesn't feel any
Murphy at this level. Yeah like it just doesn't
feel right. Some good like he
not a great performance but some of his
yelling is really great. He's like 35
dollars is great. Yes. Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. It makes me wonder, though, like, this is the third time.
It should have been, like, after the second movie, he just moves there.
Yes.
That would have, like, sort of completed the transformation into the titular Beverly Hills cop.
And maybe then we could have gone to England because then he's still Beverly Hills cop.
Well, all if it's David Cornerberg and he's a cop turning into Beverly Hills.
Ooh, this hurts so much.
Well, the oceans are all fucked up now. I don't know what you want.
My butt's becoming someone's pool in backyard.
Why?
Oh, my taint is turning into West Beverly High.
No.
Well, yeah, the tides are all fucked up.
The sun's coming up too soon.
Oh, boy.
Okay.
We're all done.
But yes, this is, someone sees, I think Axel sees a picture or whatever, and here's
Uncle Dave, and this is the Walt Disney surrogate for this thing.
This is a real, like, I get it, but also, like, is everyone paying attention?
I feel like Wally World did this better in the vacation.
Yeah.
Like, you got it that it was, like,
kind of a Walt Disney thing,
but he was clearly like his own fella, too.
This is just like a one-to-one
this is supposed to be Walt.
Also, the symbolism of vacation
just makes more sense.
You go there and the place is empty, and nobody's...
No, I just mean, like, the guy.
Sure.
Whatever is fucking...
Oh, I don't even remember.
But similarly, also, like,
this was filmed at, like,
whatever, great, great adventure,
kind of, or great...
The Great Escape?
Great Escape, which isn't like...
No, the Great Escape is in Upstate New York.
It's a great something.
Part of it's from Knott's Berry Farm,
and part of it was a
those mysterious paramount parks
which were all over the country
that I've never been to.
I think it was one. I think they filmed in one of those.
None of those are in Los Angeles proper.
No. Like Disney land is in like
Anaheim. Like you gotta get the fuck out.
This seems like in the middle of L.A.
There is an enormous theme park. That's insane.
That would be weird. It's like if like
the Staples Center didn't, and that's just where
it was just downtown or some shit.
Yeah, it's very, it does. Yeah.
Because they never take too long. They never mention
like the traffic to get.
get out to the park or whatever, yeah.
But so he's, he does buy a ticket, he goes in,
and he immediately kind of like,
he sees Uncle Dave and he sneaks into like a backstage pass
where he meets a backstage area where he meets Teresa Randall.
Hell yeah.
Where she's about to run alien attack.
Oh my God, this fucking thing,
which is just Battlestar Galatica.
I'm surprised it ensue.
I mean, I guess it's a loving tribute kind of a thing.
I mean, who owned Battlestar?
Was it Paramount?
Yeah, but if so, you're covered.
And it's also 95.
Nobody gave a shit about Battlestar Galactic.
That's true.
And now is like, and this is, I think, part of a pre-existing.
The earthquake ride.
The earthquake ride.
So I, because of this, I was like, oh, did they create this for the movie?
And then I read that trivia because I'm like, how did they spend over $70 million making this?
No, this, I've been on this ride before.
If you remove the sylons from it, it's exactly that.
Oh, wow.
The ceiling falls down just like that.
The train derails just like that.
The water comes down.
the staircase by you. They're literally just
on that ride. In Universal Florida,
it's very similar. The King Kong thing.
It's like that where fire is coming
near you. The Kong one was really cool too.
Yeah. But it's incredible that Los Angeles has this
earthquake ride. It's in Disneyland, yeah. Can you believe that? That's like
if New York had a theme park, here you hear, do the
9-11 ride. This is some shit that went down here.
The big one from 87.
Here's our new ride. Escape the
Tower. Yes, exactly.
Uh-oh, here comes all the smoke. Don't breathe it
100 flights get running
it is kind of that James Duhan
Star Cruise thing
whatever the fuck it was
whatever it was when you went to the top of the
Star Tours? Was it Star Wars? No. That's Star Wars
This is this is something I know what you're talking about
it's like James Duhan introducing like
a ride around New York City at the top
of the Empire. Oh really? If you
went to the top of the Empire State Building you could get in one of
those hydraulic things where it's like a minivan
inside basically
the same thing that like the Back to the Future two ride was
and the Star Wars ride at the old MGM Park
You just get in a car and it's got a scream.
There's James Duhan being like,
you might remember me as Scotty.
Now we're going to go on this trip around.
And you just, you know, they had like a helicopter.
He's doing the accent, I think, too, right?
I think he might be actually now that I think about it.
I think he, oh shit, is he supposed to be Scotty?
That's really sad.
You can find the video for it on YouTube because that,
the back of the future ride.
People have uploaded that video.
I only ever saw it on YouTube.
But you did, you fucking flew downtown.
Dude, you went around them towers.
I had that is famous.
Heroin Spot Needle Park right there. Look down at it.
All its pokey glory.
But so he runs into Teresa Randall's, they're flirting and in there flirting.
She's like, hey, look at this alien attack thing. It's like, that'll come in handy later.
You know, kind of, you know, kind of a big old bookmark.
Hi, there, a stranger who is weird and aggressive.
Breaking in.
He's investigating by just walking around the park and going in back areas.
Just like, I'm going to nose around.
I'm like, that's not really a detective.
No, it's not at all, right?
No, and he, what does he say to her?
Like, oh, I'm here for some, like, meeting.
I think he says, like, I'm here to meet Mr. DeWald or something.
So I'm just walking around all these control rooms or whatever.
You can't have a character named DeWaltz.
It's too close to Walt.
Yeah.
It's like they started at Walt and they went back maybe DeWalt.
DeWalt, that's different enough.
Perfect.
That's done.
Because isn't DeWalt, don't they make, like, power tools and shit?
DeWalt does, yeah, yeah, with a tool.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But, yeah, so he watches the ride go down.
Yeah, it's literally just the earthquake ride
with some robots shooting cheap lasers.
I got to say, for the fact that Ellis DeWald
gets security business of the year award guy
recognition later in the movie,
this is one of the most inept security teams of all time,
one of the most unprofessional group of idiots.
They see him in this hallway.
Now, this hallway, it's not just secret villain tunnel.
It's like the cast, you know,
characters, it's like an employee
backstage things. Someone's smoking a cigarette
you know what I mean, like before they go back to
doing whatever. And these dudes, the second
they see him, just open fire
in this hallway and I was like, what are
any of you do? Mr. DeWald is going to be
so disappointed. I mean, it gets even worse.
But yeah, so they're firing.
He like, he shoots
to people, he doesn't get anybody, but he knocks the guy out.
You could have just arrested him, kicked him out,
acted like he was crazy, but you started shooting
guns at him. Yep. And then it's also
like, you could shoot one of your Elmo fellas
or something. Yeah, it's an active fucking workplace, man.
Ogik Dokey got shot in the head.
You might shoot the air conditioning vent.
You know, there's going to be ramifications.
When does, is this when he does the big moment with the spider ride?
Yes, because he runs out away from these dudes and he runs right on like the start of the spider ride.
And Duwold's like, get him.
So all of his dudes, like including his main number two guy, this guy with like Adam West haircut,
is like he jumps on a ride to evade them, which is kind of a big spinner guy.
With a bunch of little cards.
Well, first he interrupts.
He cuts some people in line to get on there.
Oh, I'm so sorry, yes.
And none other than George Lucas.
Hey!
Oh, Ruth Brennett, right?
And of course, this is like Landis' thing, right?
He loves putting directors in little roles like Spielberg's at the end of the Blues Brothers, etc.
Like that kind of stuff.
There's a metric, fuck ton of people in this movie.
I spotted Joe Dante was one I spot.
Ray Harry Housen.
It's got to be a real.
Barbay Schroeder at the end.
He's the guy when he steals the car
when he's pretending to be the valet that's Barbay Schroeder.
That's hilarious.
Peter Medek is the guy that says
there's a black guy that shot Uncle Dave.
And like Peter Meadegh is like,
this is my line, really?
This is what we're doing?
Barbe gets to have his cool sports cars stolen
without any fucking racial shit in it.
Got it, okay.
I'm not going to say,
hey, black guy, don't cut me in line.
That doesn't make any sense, John.
And this is the third script revision.
I mean, before it was a bunch of slurs, John.
I mean, what are you doing?
First, you murdered Vic, and now you're murdering this move.
It is kind of a thing where, like, you're calling all you.
Do I have to, John?
Do I have to work with you?
No, we're buddies, we're pals.
Yeah, no, you are the best.
But I do, I do, yeah, I know.
I can kill Vic Morrow, though.
No, we've talked.
Of course we've talked.
We've had to have talked in the last 10 years.
I don't believe that.
Oh, I'm positive.
Oh, if I didn't send you a Christmas card, I'm going to kick myself.
I just can't believe it.
No, yeah, I'll be in Beverly Hills Cop three.
I would never sell Star Wars to Wonder, unless we're a four billion dollars.
Four billion wonder, burks.
That's just, you know what, let me talk to my secretary.
Barbara?
Barbara, did you not send John Landis a birthday card?
Barbara.
Oh, she did.
You know what?
That was the problem right there.
It's Barbara.
You know, sometimes she loses it.
I am firing her.
He also has, because it's like, hey, which is a terrible delivery.
But then, like, the dude, like, lets, the guy.
running the ride gives like a woolsorey
like kind of shoulder shrugged. Lucas's other
line, come on, let's
go. So terrible.
Why would you leave line?
You just waited forever to get on this thing. Wait for the next
one, yeah. And then
what was his line? Axel Foley was like, oh,
I'm doing maintenance. Yeah, there's a
dry chain. You hear that sound
with the dry gears or I got an oil, whatever.
I'm doing, I'm doing improv
with Annie Murphy. This is pretty cool.
Yes, and, Eddie.
Uh-huh.
Yes, and there might be a sarlac pit underneath you.
Oh, if you fall off the little ride, you might fall into a sarlac pit.
Can I wear the gorilla suit?
Can I put it on for a little bit?
I would just love to do that.
John, you may be a murderer, but this is fun.
And so, like, yeah, he gets on the ride or whatever.
And then again, this guy just starts, get that guy down now.
And the guy's like, the guy running the ride is like, I can't do that.
I have to wait for the whole ride.
He goes, no, and he starts grabbing it shit.
Just grabbing pulling levers and pushing buttons.
This is how the Twilight Zone nightmare happened.
It looks like he's about to stab it.
Like, he's just like he breaks it immediately.
All this screwdriver should do the trick.
And, I mean, again, like, you know, Disney World has that famous thing where nobody ever died in Disney World where people, you know, there's many.
Reportedly, you know, they did.
But the stories, they dragged them out.
Yes, exactly.
Oh, my God.
And that's not happening at Wonder World.
They're like, no, you will die at Wonder World.
I don't know how you
bounce back from all
in one day. Yes. You have a suspected
shootout in your fucking coffee
break room. Yep. And then you have
a fucking ride almost killed two kids
in front of fucking dozens of people.
Well, Teresa Rand is like, ooh, code red. There's
two kids hanging for their lives.
Yeah, that seems to be a code red.
That's pretty, yeah. Well, it's like, you know,
fucking Wonderworld, man. It's the goddamn
action park of the West Coast. I guess
so. That's happening. 20
minutes ago, I was just walking around
the little, you know, chipmunk park
or whatever, and I heard gunshots
from beneath me, distinctly gunshots, and now my kids
are hanged for their life.
George Lucas can't even get a fucking riot here. What is
going on here today? Within two days,
there's going to be another gun incident
in the middle of the park where the same man who saved the kids
is shooting into the air. Let's just say at the end
of this movie, when we have our Star Wars medal
ceremony for all our heroes, there
would be zero attendance in that park.
Close for business, Uncle Dave.
Oh, shootout park?
No thanks.
I'm good.
And also, like, not to mention that 70 men were killed the night before.
Yes.
Big massacre.
Well, you know what?
Maybe the tickets are $15 now.
Yeah, it's true.
We're pivoting to movies now.
We're just doing it.
We're going to just put out movies.
But also, this sequence doesn't fit in this movie, this long hero moment where...
No.
It's just not what Axel fully does, right?
None of it's funny.
There's no real funny moments in it.
He's not a stunt guy.
No, exactly.
Like, it's a little weird.
I mean, I guess it is just him trying
to beef up his bonafides.
Like, this is, I can do this. If you want me
to do this, I can do this stuff. When the
carriage is falling and he has to jump
down the last second, it's kind of a cool
little moment. It's exciting, but it's just also like, it just doesn't
fit the movie. It does. No, it just feels like
it was like, we have to have something
happen here because usually what you would have
is like, and I think this is why it doesn't
work like the other two. He had to go
like throughout Los Angeles to different
like stores, office buildings,
places of note. And like,
It gave you a sense of the city.
It gave you it like he was traveling through that.
It's just this location essentially.
And he keeps on coming back here,
other than I guess the bar where they say
a black man shot Uncle Dave.
Well, I mean, the other place.
Get ready for this Axelaf, dude.
I bet you it's way where it's because I bet you
the whole fucking things filmed in Atlanta.
You know, although that was the thing I'll say.
I liked this new bad boys movie
quite a bit more than I anticipated.
I thought it was a really fun time.
What's it better than the last one?
Yeah.
I think, I mean,
yes part two is directed by bay and it's bigger and whatever
this fourth one might be my second favorite bad boys movie because I've never
been crazy about two this four ends way better than two does let me just say that
that's yeah but I think Gabriel Union really makes me like two more that's true she is
great and why I brought that up was because like Miami is supposed to be such a character
in these movies and this fucking four it's just Atlanta all over the place so I wouldn't
be surprised if that happens but it has a super villain which I really do a
A supervillain in an alligator layer.
Yep.
It's great.
They have to replace the witch somehow.
Okay.
Yeah.
You got to go bigger.
There's a Bond villain hide out.
Ditch the witch.
That's, I've been saying it for years.
So he saves two children from certain death that is caused by the security team.
Right.
And immediately he is arrested and brought back down to the layer.
And welcome to the movie, Mr. John Sanks.
Hell yeah.
This plot.
Love him.
Eric, as an expert, I need you to yay or nay this.
Uh-huh.
A
A low-rent theme park
in California
is secretly
printing counterfeit money.
This is a T.J. Hooker plot, right?
Oh, this is a thousand percent
of T.J. Hooker plots.
It wouldn't, it would be a carnival
because it would be too expensive
to do it at the actual park.
Sure.
But that's it. This is a T.J. Hooker pot.
Absolutely, yeah.
Shatner would wrestle a greased-up pig
because it's at a state fair.
That pig has evidence.
They're feeding dollar
bills to the pigs. And then Romano's off
screen, you know, Adrian Zamed, but he's going
I can't tell them apart, which is T.J.
Which is the feral pig?
They're both fat pigs
covered in mud.
Exactly. Do you think
that the, we'll get to Saxon,
I don't want to back up any further, but do you think
because one of the biggest problems with that
spider ride scene is there's really no
comedy in it? Yeah. It would be better
if they weren't kids and he's got to save
like a couple of nerds or just like grown
adults. Sure. Yeah. Yeah. Get like
booger in there. You got to save booger from
falling off the rise. Maybe a, maybe a
what do you call there, Bruce McCulloch is
in there and he's like, or Bobcat Goldthwaite
maybe. You just have to make it, you just have to make
it funner to like, do that theme song again.
Do like we're jumping around. It feels more
suspenseful. Yes, exactly. Oh my God, he's
going to get the kids. I don't know. I don't know. I don't
give a shit about kids. Fuck this.
This Hill's Cup 3. He should be cursing and shooting people.
Yeah. Yes, exactly.
So yeah, Orrin Sanderson is
his name, which is great. And it's like
so John Saxon
if Ellis DeWald is like
head of security he's like the lieutenant
of the security team
he's higher up than he's like Uncle Dave's
number two I think
I do park ops or something
chief of operations yeah yeah I oversee
the security but also if you got
a problem with the concession stand
baby you know Nicole
oh no another okey dokey overdosed
got to move him out of the park
he's a cleaner that's one of this
He's fucking Uncle Dave's lone wolf.
That's what it is.
Oh, no, there's a nacho spill.
I have to go take care of this cheese.
Well, yes, I am packing.
Of course I am.
Absolutely.
Yes, of course I do have an oozy on me.
I get rid of the dead prostitutes and the spilled nacho cheese.
They're all in the happy forest now.
Did you say that you were the parks cleaner or that you were any good at it?
Michael Clayton for you, ladies and gentlemen.
So this begins like the gaslighting.
of, yeah, this is what the security
team does. It's like, oh, Janice,
Teresa Randall's character, why don't you
come in with the security tape? And it
is just the most... I mean, this is not holding up
in court. Totally. This is Dr. Mr. Simpson,
no! Like, it's so faint.
It's like, look, this is Axel Foley walking
in the hallway. Huge
tracking moment. And now he's firing.
What is that? See, there's nothing
happened there. Now I've got to go put some
Ajax on some kids vomit.
It is a healthy
like 10 seconds of like white noise
And she's like, it's tape tracking.
And you're like, oh, man.
Some fat guy from Arkansas lost his wallet
beside the goddamn Ferris wheel.
We have to shut it down, get three guys in there
to find this fat guy's wallet.
Exactly.
I just love this.
Also, it's just like you were just shooting blindly
down one of our hallways.
See nothing happens.
Like, what?
And I'm not corrupt, I want to say.
I want you to know that I'm not part of the villains.
And they're like, all right, here's Ellis Duwold
and Dun, Dun, Dun, Denswold is exactly the guy
that Alex Will is looking for.
he lunges at him.
Yep. And again,
he wouldn't be on to you
as hard. If one, you didn't bring
merch from home.
And also, Ellis Dwald, you did go
on the fucking hit in the first
place. Saxon didn't go on the hit.
Saxon's like, I'm staying here, baby.
Seems like it's a bad decision,
Ellis. But again, I
can't do anything about it. I got to go
cut up some pickled jalapinos at the
concession stand. You know Maria
cold and sick. Again.
I'm working a double here, kid.
You go ahead and deal with the murders.
I'm going to stay here and deal with the touchy Rufus Rabbit.
Oh, and a little boy drowned over an animal land.
Got to deal with that as quietly as possible.
I got to drag him out to the ocean, said he went to the fucking beach.
Oh, no, a shark ate him.
Dude, John Sachs in amusement park, lone wolf.
I would fucking love that.
It's the movie I want.
The park cleaner.
That's what you'd call it, I feel.
But yeah, so he's like, I think.
Elizondo basically, like, calms him down.
He's like, listen, you know, he's a friend of mine.
I don't know what's going on here.
Let me take Axel out of here and we'll move on.
And like, you know, basically now Axel's trying to convince.
And this is a scene that is in other Beverly Hills Cop movies that is much better, the bar scene.
Like, it's just, I don't even know what bar they're at.
It's got no vibe to it.
No, no, no.
Hawaii Tiki.
Here's the thing because, so here's my fucking recent descent into Tiki madness.
is Disneyland has a very famous teaky bar in it.
And I think the joke here, because it is a teaky bar they're at,
isish enough.
And I think the joke is because Judge Reinhold gets a blue Hawaiian and she's like,
oh, here, Mr. Rosewood, here's your regular or your usual.
And I think the joke is like, he's there all the time getting this thing in an amusement park bar.
But then I need Eddie Murphy to be like, what is, you know, what is this?
Why am I supposed to drink this?
Like the scene in Zodiac.
Exactly.
about a glue drink.
And then it becomes a fun moment.
What's the daddy line is like,
what you're drinking needs to be discussed.
It's just like,
something like that.
This needs to be discussed.
Yes, that's what it is.
But yeah, it is,
because it is a staple of the franchise.
We get to the bar and I convince you
to do the thing with me.
Sure.
But it's just like,
this is just showing the tiredness
of the franchise.
Tiredness of Eddie Murphy's just like,
let's just talk about the plot.
Let's just get the plot.
Like, what are we going to do next?
And that's it.
I'm going to look at your blue drink for a minute.
I mean, the joke they do is Judge Reinhold being.
Thanks, Lisa.
Yeah.
Yeah, no, I eat hamburgers here on a regular basis, and I have no family.
I wanted to pause it and make myself a blue one.
They are delicious.
But, yeah, so it's like, what is happening next?
Oh, Ellis DeWald happens to be getting an award tonight.
And I have an extra ticket to you want, you know, you're going to take me.
And it's like, okay, that's, he goes to his hotel.
the Sunset Motel, and this is
Freeze, motherfucker! And he pulls
a gun on Uncle Dave. It's very funny.
This little old man in his hotel
room. Hi, I didn't piss myself because I'm
on uppers. This is
Alan Young, who does the voice
of Scrooge McDuck, amongst other things.
I learned that just yesterday,
like, having seen this a bunch of times,
and I never once was like
this dude's, like Uncle Dave's voice sounds like
Scrooge McDuck, like he was a very
talented voice actor. I always thought Scrooge
McDuck was a guy, like a real person.
I grew up believing that.
He's the other Coke brother.
Yeah, David, John.
The one who built the Wild West Park for himself, that one.
Oh, there's a one of them built a Wild West Park for themselves?
So there's the two evil ones everyone knows.
Right.
But then their rival is Pepsi, of course.
Sure.
No, they had a third brother who was like, he's just like, I don't want to be evil.
Just give me my money.
And I'm going to build a Wild West town for myself.
Nice.
That's nice.
out in the middle of nowhere. You know what?
Good for him. Yeah, don't bother anybody. That's great.
You don't have to influence the world
malevolently. You can just spend your money
and just, you know, get blown every day in a wild
West feed. I mean, it's certainly better
than those fucking demented Sprite brothers.
Oh, God, those guys.
Disgusting sons of bitches. They took out the seven
ups. And they killed Dr. Pepper.
That was
that was a fridge too far. That was a state funeral
for me. The assassination of Dr. Pepper.
Yeah, that's, oh, my God.
Mrs. Pepper just trying to get his brains out of him.
Mr. Popcorn.
crying butter.
Mrs. Pepper was just so broken down to the funeral
and then his secret lover Mr. Pib
showed up and I got really weird.
You shouldn't be here.
I told you not to come to this.
There's a picture of Mr. Pib being sworn in on the plane.
Dr. Pepper told him to get those sons of bitches
that did this too.
Oh, I enjoy that.
But so a thing that comes to nothing
is, oh, Uncle Dave is telling
all about the park designer Roger Frank
that has gone missing after sending this note
like meet me life and death
gotta talk to you whatever it is
it's Uncle Dave and Teresa Randall
and Teresa Randall is like can I be in the movie
I'm sexy and I could be his girlfriend or something
or love interest like not really
we'll kidnap you a couple times but that's about it
oh you could do old manhandler
you could bring Uncle Dave to the motel
can you push a wheelchair are you good at that
because that's I mean like she's ready to be in the movie
She's one of the people
Who is game to be in this movie
I said at the top that no one wanted to do this movie
Theresa Randall definitely wanted to do this movie
You know him partnered with her running around this part
That's something
It would have been something absolutely
Because she has like
Why wouldn't you do that right?
Like she's got the like insider knowledge
Right
They use it sometimes where it's like
Here's these blueprints
But like partner them together
I see that and that's probably what they should have done
But like also if you are Eddie Murphy
The one thing you have about this
is that this is an Eddie Murphy movie
and you're going to milk it for everything
so like it would have been
I mean like the first I mean the first one
when he's with the I forget her name
the white lady that he's helping
in the first one she's coming around with him
to a lot of those things so they do do things like that
before be a nice callback but like
this whole thing I'm looking at
the Robert Fry thing
that should have been the thing that brought him there
from the beginning it should have been like
it's a mystery there is a mystery
there is a mystery of foot in fucking
Wonderworld. Yeah, yeah. As opposed to see
knowing it's Ellis DeWall the whole time
it cuts everything out. It's also very
funny that, you know, the reveal
at the end, no one actually really looked at this piece
of paper. I mean, money feels
differently. But actually, no, that's
I think that's the thing that makes this most
like a T.J. Hooker episode is you know
who the villain is the entire time.
You see him in the first scene doing the thing.
It's like, what do you call there? Leo
at the beginning of his FBI episode.
You shoot the guys down.
It's like, we're going to catch him.
You know what I mean?
Like, that's what this is.
It's also, Columbo rules.
Also.
Columbo, what's the other one that does that?
Perry Mason.
And once upon a time in Hollywood,
Leo's characters put stuff that says property of the U.S.
government in a truck.
It's true.
Look at this.
Lisa Islebacher was the lady from part one.
She's, I believe, the, also, Bronson's daughter in 10 to midnight.
Oh, really?
Yes.
Oh, or the lady that Bronson, I don't remember if it's a dirter character or what,
but the lady that Bronson is trying to save in that movie.
She's going to Beverly Hills Cop.
I liked that.
Yeah, no, she was also in Leviathan.
Been in some stuff.
Anyway.
So she, so, you know, basically it's like,
now he's got this other mystery
that kind of fits in with the mystery
he's already got.
We go to the policeman's ball
or whatever the fuck.
Which is also like a weird, like,
convention for cop
private security.
Like, yes.
It's NAPSA,
the National Association of Private Security agencies.
Wow, good for you, dude.
But this is what's funny about this is they fuck it up.
The first time it's just the National Association of Security Agency's NASA, which would be funny.
But then when they get to the thing, like, there's clearly, like, someone put private with, like, a little arrow in the line.
The edit, like, insert this later.
It was verified.
But, yes, there's a bunch of, there's armor, and of course, there is Bronson Pinchot.
Awkwell!
I can't believe it.
Bring it on back.
No, thank you.
No, thank you.
Really?
Did Serge work for you in this?
Surge has kind of always worked for me.
And apparently he was doing all of his lines with John Landis
that Eddie Murphy couldn't be bothered to come to set for these things.
Well, that's the other like apocryble stuff you read about this movie
is he was so depressed about the state of his career that he just couldn't get it up to do scenes for this movie.
I love that.
Like, oh, God, it's so sad what happened in my career.
What?
Victims.
What, my career is the victim here.
Eddie was really game
and they had them in a two-shot together.
Playing off each other.
Yeah, exactly.
We could have really had...
Like they do in the first movie?
But I just think it doesn't work here.
Yeah.
Well, it makes no...
He used to be an art gallery, whatever.
And now he's like, oh, I'm doing guns now.
It's just kind of weird.
It's like a Ghostbusters, too.
I used to do art preservation now of a violinist or vice versa or whatever.
Right, right.
Lewis Tully was an accountant and then he's a lawyer for no reason.
Yeah, it's just, what are you home?
Simpsons, stop changing your job.
Well, that was just because Peter McNichael had a boner for her immediately.
And it was like, oh, of course you can come in.
Yeah, yeah, you're high, I'm sure, yeah.
Touch it top.
And he's like, now it sort of unofficially makes him the cue of this franchise.
Yeah, he's a gadget guy.
You're totally right.
He gives him a key ring that, like, will flash bright, which we'll use.
And the big thing is the annihilator 2000, which is this big silly gun.
That's got like a boom box in it and a fucking radio.
television. And then we get the whole stuff
about like, oh yeah, Sly. Slice got
14 of these. Oh, that's because
like Axel's like, who is going
to buy one of these? And he's like, they're on
back order. Yeah, all these people in
like Beverly Hills are buying them up.
Zsa Gabor has one.
Dude, you know you are firmly still
like in the early 90s with like Jaja Gabor
pop culture references. Oh my God.
I remember the sun setting on that.
And then we had no more
Zaja Gabor jokes and references.
Is it her or Ivanka?
Trump at the end of first wives club
it's it's a vanka
Trump because it's like
here's the best way to get divorced ladies
and take advantage of your ex-husband
I definitely won't be buried in his
golf course when I die
in an unmarked pauper's grade
dude yeah that cameo was the
highest point of her life I'll tell you that
yikes dude
well good poll I haven't thought
about that in a while yeah so
aquil you know whatever
don't worry I'll definitely be back for this
gun at some point, you know, one of those things. So then we go into the dinner and it's he's
getting this award. And it's, I do like Judge Reinhold in the full tuxedo. This I think is where
he's wearing like the, it's a brown leather jacket with like black jeans on or whatever. So he's
like kind of. He's dressed up. He's dressed up for Axel Foley. I mean, this is this is the,
this is the familiar Judge Reinhold Eddie Murphy scenario, right? Him saying, please don't do this,
So please don't do this.
And Eddie Murphy comically yelling and making fun of people and getting himself into trouble.
Ellis DeWold!
Alice, come on, that's Ellis DeWald.
Bravo!
It is so close to sexual chocolate.
It really is.
I mean, Eddie yelling was always very great.
It's the best.
It's always fun.
One of the best.
But, yeah, so, you know, Ellis gets this award.
John Saxon presents it to him.
Here you go, baby.
It was always for you, kid.
And then, yeah, actually has a table, which also comes in, it was just like a little joke,
but a table full of underprivileged kids that he's, like, working with the community or whatever.
They're all wearing, like, turquoise suit jackets.
And one day they're all going to become a Wally World security agents, you know?
Which will also make them counterfeiters, I suppose.
Yes.
This is like an ROTC.
Yeah, totally.
You can grow up to work at Wonderworld and be a trigger-happy murderer.
What I don't get is how does this escalate to the point of him and just?
being arrested. Now, Judge Reinhold is like a top cop of L.A.
Yeah, yeah. Well, these are security guards. He outranks everyone in the room.
It's true. Well, because, again, instead of going a comedy route, like, it's funny, him going to go,
Ellis DeWald. He's like, he gives this kind of mini speech about, I'm going to give him
everything that he deserves. Right. Plus interest. And then, you know, there's a smirk.
Duwold's like, what's the matter, Foley? Matt, I killed your boyfriend.
Still right close to that microphone, by the way.
Yeah. And then he just gets, then he just punches.
as opposed to like something funny
you're happening. Yeah, it's not very funny. It's just a
fight. They go through a table like it's the
WWF, which is something. If there was ever a time
to throw a cake at someone. Exactly.
You know what I mean? Like this is a function.
Absolutely. Get some of these stuff shirts.
Get a dowage. You're like, oh, no.
Totally. Exactly. But go full marks brothers.
But yeah, so they are
arrested and here's their
jailer, Joe Dante, which is
very funny. Oh, that's fun. Oh, man.
And it's, here's, McHaddy comes
back in and it's this like, and so Joe Dante
comes for Axel and it's like it's kind of a great judge Reinhold is let he's like no no no
no just Axel and Reinhold's like still in jail but here's Stephen McHaddy like I asked you
not to fuck with this investigation and you're still totally fucking me and then they made
Joe Dante go back to the cell and lock himself in it man I mean you know he didn't do a lot
of movies after a while right yeah kind of I mean itered out yeah small soldiers of
98 and oh I forgot about small so the Looney Tunes movie is
2000.
Oh, the less said
the better.
I think that's a pretty
good movie.
Really?
Yeah, I watch it
for the first time
a few years ago.
Never saw it.
Honestly, it's a good
the one with De Niro?
Rocky Bow Winkle?
I'm thinking a Rocky Bowl.
Yes, you are,
which I was about to tell you guys
the other day,
that came back up on my feed
for some reason.
I was like, we have to do that movie.
Rene Rousseau,
Jason Alexander,
I'm getting so old now
that I'm just like,
oh yeah, the cartoon people.
Yeah, they're the looney dudes.
you see that cartoon
that's probably a loony one
every time we did X-Men 97
on The Great Too Olds this shit
We had to be like Eric no no this is the X-Men
I was like on Winsbugs Bunny
Showing up there's the Talking Duck
No it's Brendan Fraser and Jenna
Elthman
And Martin, Steve Martin's the villain
I do not think I've seen it actually
It's a live action animated hybrid
That's I think totally entertaining
I think it's like the second
Like I can't think of another one
that even, like, sniffes at Roger rabbits, like,
Roger rabbits, clearly the number one.
Coyote versus Zach.
Oh, no, no, no one in a saw a coyote for Zach.
It was written off as a tax break.
I actually heard that they do have some animated stuff in Backer.
Oh, wait.
Oh, not going to see that.
You're going to start.
You know, people don't know.
We actually do a lot of other podcasts that we don't release.
Those are tax breaks.
Yes, I don't know.
Yeah, we're going through the trouble of making all them podcasts just to cancel it for tax breaks.
But if they can do it, why can't we?
Well, true.
Let's talk to our accountant about the Robocop 2 show.
We can't release that.
It was not recorded properly.
If you can't release something, that means you get money for it, right?
Ethan, Ethan, listen, we did a whole thing on General Hospital.
We covered all of it.
But we got rid of it because we thought it would just be, you know, it would be better that way.
Can't we get a break?
I think we have to prove how we would benefit making more money destroying it than releasing.
I see.
I think is the idea.
It made it so.
worse when Will Forte was like
I got a chance to see it and it's great. I'm like
don't fucking tell me then. Unless
it's in an actual attempt to push them to
release it. But I got to feel them hard drives
are erased at this point. That movie's
fucking gone anyway. But so
they got arrested. There's a bad
I think they call Elizondo
is their call and then like there's a
don't drop this. Don't take any
showers. Am I in this movie
or what? I guess I am.
You shouldn't be.
Yeah, he gets the call to like bail
them out or whatever. And then this is also
the plane ticket. Yeah, the plane
ticket. First class
courtesy of the U.S. federal
government. I know this hasn't worked in
all the other film, but I
want you to be very sure
that you get on this play. I love
that that's always like, and I mean
sure it's great like flying first class
but it's always a selling point in these things
when a character wants to get someone else
out of town, it's like, and I'll sweeten the deal
by putting you in first class.
That's never going to work. I always
assume that's a condescending, you're from
fucking Detroit. You better
enjoy the fucking free champagne and orange
or whatever. The only time in your life
you get this treatment, yeah, probably.
But this is
they figure out
I don't know how it is
they figure out, oh, the van, we
found the van, it's at the, this is the big failed
beach raid, Reinholds
coordinating with like 20
agencies, including like
Baywatch people, which is very funny.
It happens in the car, like basically they're
All in the car, and we're driving axle to the airport or something, and it's like, oh, wait, they found the van.
I just coordinated with 14 different agencies.
We're going to swarm at it.
Let me tell you and not show you that.
Exactly.
Why can't you, can I get a shot of Donald Logue saying, this is an Invelohejo?
Can I get something like that, please?
Just come on.
I got to tell you, man, if this movie, they wanted to be all serious about it, make it more of a, towards a zodiac vibe, I don't know.
Oh, I would love.
Yeah, how about Beverly Hills Coppies tracing a serial killer?
Yes.
He's going out of Southern California now.
The Zodiac was still active.
Who knows?
Yeah. But it's a, yeah, the failed van operation.
It's empty.
We do see, yeah, we see Judge Reinhold open it and it's empty.
It's, it's anti-clagnetic.
You got to have a joke in there.
Yeah, it is.
I will say, though, it was a little reminiscent of the end of the Blues Brothers
when every agency shows up at the county clerk's office and everything.
Like, you do, I think it's in this scene where you see some SWAT and they do the
same thing.
Hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot.
I think it's right here.
But that doesn't make any sense.
John Landis never recycled bits.
That's what, where you talk,
no, he's on top.
He never does that.
Yeah, when you're right, you're right.
I mean, to give him, we're trashing him a lot.
I mean, to give him credit, I do,
I think Blue's Brothers is great.
It's one of my favorite movies of all time.
Previous episode, American Werewolf in London.
Yes, we love movies.
Monsters make great, good and great movies.
That's true.
Let's be honest here.
Aside from a few bits here and there,
Animal House is still a brilliant comedy.
I think the last movie of his,
of his I liked was 2000-something
slasher, the
documentary about the car salesman guy.
Oh, was that from 2000? I thought that was earlier.
I've never seen it early.
Didn't he do the Don Rickles documentary?
Oh, I don't know. I know that his last
theatrically released movie was 2010's
Burke and Hair with...
Is it Andy Circus and Simon Pegg, I believe, is the
famous grave robbers? Not good.
I didn't see it. It sort of looked like
I don't want to anyway.
There's a documentary called Mr. Warmth about
John Rickles with everything.
I think he directed it.
I'm not 100% on that.
He's definitely in it.
But that Birken Hair was like his last narrative.
I'm pretty sure.
He was directing a bunch of episodes
of like some cartoon show.
Franklin and Bash, Stanley's Superhero Kindergarten.
That's what I think I was thinking of.
I did some psych.
TV show called Fear itself.
Mr. Warmth, yes.
Masters of Horror he did.
Slashers 2004.
Oh, wow.
That's way later than I would have got slasher.
Yeah, John.
we know it's a cartoon and we know
it's a fantastical world and we all
love what you're doing with it but I really don't think
you should have a talking helicopter
I'm going to be very straight with you
I don't think that's a good idea
come on kids you can work at night
how tall are you
I just have to get this shot
really right do you think he wanted to direct
that cars fire and rescue
with Dane Cook is that plane
yes oh no now me helicopter
have a tummy ache and I'm falling over
whoops
whoops
I'm a little too sleepy
that actually
you just reminded me
of something
when he's being chased
by security guards
at one point
there's the repeated
shots of they're jumping
over the little
train set
and then the one
security guard steps on it
and they just have the
it's only to be
the voice of the train
goes,
ow!
No sir,
that's not a joke
come on it's a kid's
I mean like
that's the weird thing
is like
it's not even a
comedy he's going for. It's clearly like a
kid's movie that he's pitching
towards. Thomas the tank engine got stepped on
and said, owie. Speaking of disasters
and kids, what's Max up to these days?
Oh, man. I'm making that four hour
hears me doing every DC character
that I couldn't even break myself to watch. He's just like
a YouTube loser. He's like a YouTube. Yeah, yeah, baby.
That's what he's been accidentally out to.
Oh, yeah. Because he did crimes, right? Yeah, I forget
the exact ones. We don't have to be going.
Sex pestery.
Oh, that's pretty canceled. Pretty serious stuff.
Total sense. Uh, but so Axel, they
find in the truck a little piece of paper
that Axel realizes his actual
money is his paper that
would be used to print money and he kind of puts it together
that this is a counterfeiting operation
goes back to Wonderworld by himself
this is when he's like
he sneaks around and he
finds the he finds them printing
the money right? Yeah because this is where he
dresses up like okie dokey. Thank you that's
the big sequence. It's him and the elephant
and the security team is looking for him
and then it's like oh here's a file photo
on Foley and it's literally just a frame
from the movie, printed on paper.
But it's funny because, like,
Jerisa Randall clearly helps him out with this
and, like, gets him the suit and all that stuff.
But you don't see any of that.
She's just like, Axel, you're here.
It's like, okay.
And it's like, yeah, there's a fun scene with a,
a bratty kid and a cute kid.
Oh, my God.
Oh, that's very funny.
He pushes the bratty kid into the fountain,
which is kind of great.
That kid's hilarious.
The little boy laughing.
With, like, you've got no teeth in his mouth.
It's just like, it's great.
It's so awesome.
And I love the grandmother.
You don't fuck with my.
kids. It's so great. He just runs.
My favorite scene is the next one
when he's going downstairs.
There's a second
okey dokey. Yes.
And then Teresa like has to figure
out who, Teresa Randa has to figure out which one
is him. Yes. But in
the background, there are a bunch
of the other mascots. Because they're like
playing poker or something. They're playing poker.
And like it looks like a, like a furry hotel
room. Yeah.
You nailed it.
Was Ku Klux Klam in the
background? Oh, man, I wish.
They are talking about
how the new Rufus Rabbit is really
fuckable. They're just like,
hey, have you seen the new Rufus Rabbit?
She's got quite a tail on her.
That's amazing.
Well, this is a joke in the 90s
mascoty humor
kind of like, these guys are dressed
up like whatever, but they're actually pretty
surly underneath kind of a gag.
Well, that was like at least
27 to 37
ESPN commercials were related.
with that? Yeah. Oh, God. It's like, you know, it was always like the
Sports Center offices 8 a.m. and they're all
checking into work and you'd be like, what the fuck are they doing there? They're not
broadcasters, these commercials don't make any sense. You're telling me the guy
underneath Big Bird smoking a cigar. And now you can say, fuck.
I bet Carol Spinney enjoyed a cigar too. Sure, yeah. Absolutely.
Almost died in the Challenger.
Really? Dude, so there is, there's a great documentary on Carol Spinney
and just his history as Big Bird and Oscar the Grouch. One of the stories
that is told in it.
They were going to shoot him into space.
Big Bird was going to be on the challenger, dude.
I'm not making this up.
They were like, wouldn't it be great?
Carol Spinney was going to go into outer space as Big Bird.
To get kids to want to be astronauts or NASA.
Here's a live feed of Big Bird dying.
Burning to death.
Dude, if that happened, they would have to do like a full-on Capricorn one.
There would be a, yeah.
And secretly, oh, no, Biggbert's fine.
Cut to the other footage where Bigwood's fine.
It has to be that, or it would be, we would have
statues in every park
we would honestly prefer O.J. Simpson
on this. If we really
if it's between the two. I mean
honestly what's good for the goose is good for the gander.
You'd have fucking Oscar the Grouch singing at his
funeral then. But
oh, that's a true story. Carol Spinney
was supposed to be on the Challenger and he was
going to put the big bird suit on and he'll be
like, it's big birds in space. And they
mixed the idea and then
history happened. Crazy
crazy story. But
so he, that was God's retribution.
I couldn't wait to see it
Big Bird was going to be as close to me as possible
Scrap Big Bird coming to my celestial heavens
Oh I see
Barbara cursed that
Barbara God's assistant Barbara
He gets
But so he gets into the under belly here
And he does see
Them all printing the money
Yeah because he's like where's a place in the park
That they could still hide
And she's like oh the haunted or the enchanted forest
Is under construction
And that's like under that they've got the
Oh, happy fourth.
Either way, it's a bit of a misnomer
because this place looks terrifying
as I'll get it.
You know in To Live and Die in L.A.
When Willem Defoe, like, rents out
all these, like, abandoned hotels
and stuff and, like, is doing all this kind of fitting there.
Yeah.
That makes a ton more fucking sex.
Oh, yeah.
Doing it at a fucking active theme part.
It's ineptitude, man.
It's crazy.
It's just hide in plain sights, right?
I suppose so.
Because eventually we do get that scene with Saxon
that it's the, whoa,
Mickey Mouse money.
Yeah.
Right, right, right.
Yeah.
He, uh, any, we're doing a little bit of diehard here.
And he's in the vents, snooping into this back area or whatever.
He sees the money and then the security guards start chasing him.
Because Ellis DeWald sees him in a fucking mirror reflection immediately.
He's, his cover is blown in less than 10 seconds in the scene.
There's the weird sexy line with Teresa Randall says about like they're, they're close together.
They're looking at the map of the thing.
Yes.
And he's and, and he's like.
Oh, I have to go to the happy forest.
It's like, what can I go?
She's, it's been closed for far too long.
Oh, yeah.
How long has the happy forest been closed?
Too long, she says.
There's so many of these lines with her, like, at the end line.
I'm just going to say right now.
Oh, do it.
Oh, let's go to the tunnel of love ride.
Oh, you have one?
Like, we do now.
The tunnel of love is her pussy.
That's the fucking joke.
That was you yelling at the feet.
That tunnel of love is your pussy.
Does everybody get it?
Andrew, what the fuck?
This is me giving you a reminder.
Isolate that for me, please.
No problem, though.
The tunnel of love is her pussy.
If someone could, yeah, put that into some music tracks.
I know some creative people are out there.
The tunnel of love is her pussy.
Oh, it's just going straight to my soundboard.
Eddie sound cloud rappers that's the next Vince Staples record.
The tunnel loves a pussy.
Honestly.
It is.
That would be really cool if that happened if you had Staples.
Sampled, Eric.
The tunnel of love is her pussy.
But yeah, so now it's just another,
he goes out to the park,
and this is when he starts firing wildly.
Because he's about all the guys surround him,
and the idea is like,
oh my God, they're going to execute me.
There's a guy filming.
We're doing a little Rodney King-ish kind of nod here.
We absolutely are, Steve.
Don't worry about that.
Yeah, the dude has his fucking camcorder
trained on this black guy, absolutely.
This is great.
Yeah.
Oh, bad.
I don't know why he has to fire his gun in the air to be like, I'm unarmed.
I don't know, it's an interesting choice.
I guess he makes a public scene so they can't execute him.
So he wouldn't be like shot in the middle of a crowd or something.
What fantasy world is this?
Well, it's, yeah.
I mean, it's even weirder that the Wally World people just have guns and all of them have guns.
It is a great line at the beginning when he's fucking with the dudes at the admission desk and he's like, have your tailor bring your suit jackets out.
see the outline of your gun
behind you or whatever, that's kind of a cool.
That's on purpose. That's the cool
like your fucking detective Axel Foley,
you notice shit like that. And again,
if you're counterfeiting offices
are anywhere other than an active theme park,
you don't need to have all these dudes
with guns. They could just be regular security guards.
That would make a ton more sense.
With the, I mean, to me,
you are all underselling
Ellis DeWalt's final plan here
because he has the kids that he's
helping out. And he's got this small army,
he's amassing at them. I think he's
got an army coming together. I see.
He wants new troops every time
and eventually when Uncle Dave dies,
Alice the wall takes over this place.
And you can just fucking, you can launder everything
in that place. Wonder World is a sovereign nation
you're saying. Oh yeah.
Yeah, no, the jungle cruises down against some
Yale. I mean, um, kids
we're, uh, we're having trouble
in there. Uh, that's what happened.
Yeah, the hippo, the hippo did it.
Uh, we have some, we have some more
gaslighting here where
that Eddie brings McCatty
and everybody in like the printing fake money
and blah blah blah and oh yeah sure
yeah do a run of the paper John
Saxon and it's Wally Wonderworld
Bucks or whatever
we're debuting this at Christmas
blah Christmas promotion school
all across the country
they're going to do it and they're like giving
this money to like kids can
get it and use it to get into the word giving
it to all the orphanages baby or whatever
wait hold on someone's
shoplifting key chains in the
in Wallywood. I got to go upstairs. You take care of the rest of this. Give me one of those
shotguns. Got bigger fish to fry up there at the keychain stand. What's that a mega soda
fell on the ground? Well, I'll get to it this afternoon. Just put a caution, wet floor sign
there till I can go handle the job. I have to drag out the other dead kid too before I get to that one.
I got to approve the designs on the new character Frisky Fox. Oh, God damn it, we're at a
double X okey-dokey t-shirts.
I told them to order more.
Fat people like the
ok-dokey. My God.
I'll be down there soon to stretch out the regular
X-L. I'll use a
Sharpie to put in a X-XL.
I'll solve the problem
of a fixer.
A married couple is arguing
at an okey-dokey-pokey-pokey-bowl
restaurant. We need to get them
out of here immediately.
Okay, dokey polky-pocker. That's pretty good.
I like that. I had it.
But, yeah, so there's, it's just fake money.
And then McCaddy is like, God damn it, Axel, you've ruined our case or something.
I remember I'm in this movie, Stephen McCaddy.
Yes, we're working this case for years.
You've blown it, blah, blah, blah, get on this plane this time.
And then you have Ellis DeWalk.
Make sure he doesn't get on the plane.
Oh.
And then this is where he goes to Eddie is, or Axel is meeting up with Uncle Dave.
This is where Uncle Dave is assassinated in a drive-by sure assassination attempt.
First, he escapes Hector Elizondo
by just getting out in the middle of traffic
and running away. Oh, right. There's so much
in this movie is just him running away from things.
Yes. And Elizondo's like, God damn
and Axel, that was my retirement plan. He keeps talking
about he's got three kids in a mortgage and like
I want to work at
Wonder World once I retire. That's a sweet
gig for me. And again, like
yes, is he crooked? Is he not? Like,
these are things that might be a movie.
Yeah, yeah, totally. This new character that we've
never met before, why should we trust him? Boy,
wouldn't that be interesting. He's a little too chummy for
own good. Exactly. Like when he's like, oh, yeah,
Ellis, are we still up for? And he does
like the Johnny Carson gulp swing on
Sunday, you know, like that kind of shit.
You think like he's in bed with him.
Ellis said that I could become a lieutenant. Now, I don't know
why it's military term.
But he said it, and I believe him.
I'm going to get my riches. That is coming from
the open group and furor.
Ellis DeWalt, the open
group and furor of the... Well, you want
to be part of us? You're going to have to kill
Okie Dook. Which
one? It doesn't matter.
Ellis DeWald is driving him
like through a neighborhood with Hector
Alizando in the back of the city. He just like
sees a guy walk in his dog and he's
a handsome of a gun. Let's see
if you're really Wadi World material.
Oh yes.
But yeah
so he meets him with Uncle Dave.
Duwold comes upon them.
All their guys are there.
Their genius move, which was genius. We just follow
Uncle Dave places. Yes.
We do. You'd come to you. And they shoot
Uncle Dave in the chest.
They just blow this dude away.
After he's been like, by the way, again,
your mystery guy who is still,
and I guess you just have to presume Ellis Dwald
had this guy murdered, but like this partner
of Uncle Dave's, oh, that note that he, you know,
wrote you, it's on fake currency paper, blah, blah, blah.
We go the Roger Rabbit route.
Yeah, oh, yes.
But yeah, he's shot in the street
and then they make it, it's with Axel's gun,
and then they make it look like Axel's the one that did it.
This is, we start getting the,
do you hear a black guy shot Uncle Dave and all that shit
because it's going around the news and everything.
Now, John, have you ever thought that maybe,
maybe Uncle Dave gets killed by a radio?
If you ever think of that?
Me and Stephen had a discussion the other day,
and I think it could really go well if you just,
oh no, he gets shot.
It's a radio.
It kind of science fiction like that, isn't it?
It makes it a little more interesting.
A bunch of flashlights.
What about flashlights and radio?
What if Axel had a robot friend?
That we are dangerously close to that with this movie
And it was cool when Sylvester did it in Rocky Forest
So I'm just saying you could have robot friends in your movies
There's this great scene that stops the movie fucking dead with all these
This is the Ray Harryhausen bar scene
We're like it's like all these like 300 year old men at a bar being like
They shot Uncle Dave oh my goodness
Uncle Dave you say
Uncle Dave
Uncle Dave oh my God Uncle Dave
I heard it was a black guy I just heard it was a guy
really? What's
the descriptor really matter? Well, it's
just the way I see people.
But, yeah,
and also, like, speaking of the ER,
like, the fucking Uncle
Dave brought into this emergency
room. Alan Young with his shirt off of the bloody
fucking, like, hole in his chest.
Uncle Day, we're not going to lose you.
It is
truly wild.
And then he just, like, is allowed to walk out of the
hospital at that point when it's like, you brought
in a... He sneaks out. He
Oh, where's the Coke machine?
And then he finds the window or whatever.
No, yeah, it's insane.
But still.
The cops are like, hey, so what happened with this old guy?
What's going on?
Yes.
This is one of the richest men in California, if not the world.
Now, Uncle Dave, say it with me.
The tunnel of love is her pussy.
You're going to be okay.
Come on.
We're going to be okay.
Are you a doctor?
Are you a doctor?
Did you go to doctor?
I'm going to be okay.
Oki dokey.
I'm going to be Oki-Dokey, Kay.
Such a Scrooge McDuck voice.
That would be great.
Oh, when I'm in Penn.
pain. I just go to my fake Scottish accent
I do sometimes.
Ah!
Yeah, so
he steals a sports car from
Barbay Schroeder so we can
go meet up with Ellis DeWall.
Oh, was that the guy that was
doing the parking for me?
Oh, and he just loses his sports car.
You know EDM in, don't you?
He gets
Billy on the way as well, and
someone's going to
call Huck Gerald is on to remind him that third act
is coming up, so that would be good, of course.
I do like right here, so it's like, you know,
the finale of the film at Wonderworld Park,
cool mat painting, a composite shot here
of whatever park they were filming at,
and then the massive fake Wonderworld Park map behind it.
And you know, less is more with this.
If the shootout, if it was just ending at Wonderworld,
it would be better.
Because by the time I'm seeing these same rides for the fifth time.
No, exactly.
I have zero interest in this.
We've been going to Wonderworld so many times.
I've seen every ride.
I've seen every corridor.
I really don't need another corridor in this movie.
It's just catch and release.
It's been constantly just,
he gets taken,
he gets away.
He gets taken,
he gets away.
Just fucking end it.
Shoot him.
At least like the first movie,
I believe,
ends up like that crazy drug mansion,
which we've never seen before.
Oh,
yes.
And it's all the three of them in shotguns
are going fucking crazy,
like with the Wonderland murders.
And the second one's like those oil fields.
And like,
Again, a place that I don't think they go to before that end of the movie.
No, no, no.
And there you get, I mean, that is where you expect a Juergen Prock now to be.
Absolutely.
But yes, of course, also villain bait, Teresa Randall has been kidnapped,
which is also why he's racing back to the Wonder World Park.
Speaking of that, and we just brought it up, there may be,
I have not seen a kidnap bait so rough as Mike Lowry's wife and the new bad boys.
Oh, yes.
I have never
it has been years
since I've seen it so blatant
gorgeous woman new character
in the film franchise
and it's like
no no scenes
and then she's kidding out
damsel meet distress
Teresa Randall does not
appear as Teresa
in the new movie and it's insane
because Teresa has kind of
a good chunk to do in this one and I'm like
what happened? It's really
why they recast her? Yeah it's
still Teresa the character
played by a different woman.
Unforgivable.
I was kind of bombed, honestly.
I sincerely hope it was like a scheduling conflict
and that was not money.
That was it.
Yeah.
I hope it's a TV show
she's working on or something.
That would be better.
Precisely, yeah.
But yeah, so we're back at Wonderworld.
Here we go.
And it's just, this is,
I remember this part of the movie most clearly
because I feel like I caught this one on cable a lot
and it was always right here.
It was always at the end of the movie.
Which is funny because what keeps happening,
we're not talking about it,
is he keeps putting a gun to,
Elisdwald's head to get out of trouble.
Oh, right. And literally, at
some point, somebody goes, not again. I'm like, yeah,
I've seen this happen three different times.
Yeah, don't let your characters announce that the movie's getting
repetitive. And that's the thing, too, is like,
setting, again, with your Colombo,
T.J. Hooker rules, like, we know
who the bad guy is, the hero knows what the bad guy is.
They've had way too many scenes together.
Yes. You know what I mean? There's no, like,
chair to turn around. I mean, it's like John
Saxon, but not really. I guess Stephen McHackson.
is the big chair to turn around.
But that's like six seconds long.
The chair hasn't stopped moving and he's assassinated.
He just walks in as like, hey, corrupt.
And that's it.
Like it's like, ah, you know, we got to end the movie.
And maybe I'll shoot judge.
Everybody's got a shot in their arm.
Yeah.
Judge Reinhold has to get the last shot in his arm.
And that's what that is right.
I love, so Judge Ryanhold is here for some reason.
Axel uses the bright light thing.
There's a big kerfuffle.
Judge Reinhold and Teresa Randall go in the computer room.
And there's what seems.
to be, what we're told is an
impenetrable glass wall
that closes them in and like
it's starting to freeze them because it's
about the hard drives, overheating, yada, yada.
It's in case of a fire. Yeah, so they have to like
they're like beeping Hector Elizondo
or something with the phone
and that's what allows him to know that the third
act is happening. Yes. And like this
is happening while Axel is doing all this action stuff
we keep cutting back to it and then
Judge Ronald just breaks a chair through it. I'm like
yeah, dude, that's the first thing I'm doing.
Chair number one. Trying to call
someone's pager repeatedly, that's
at least the third idea. They're like, oh my god,
is this the end? Oh, wait, that fucking chair is right there.
I guess because when the, when the,
everything's spread, like he has Ellis
by the throat. Yeah. I think
because when they go towards the thing,
they can see them and can shoot them.
But like, it seemed, the way I read
it was that that thing was bulletproof.
Yes, exactly. But like, I'm like, okay, so
it was this glass? What the fuck? In movies,
those things normally are bulletproof
when you see a big wall like that. The movie is.
No respect for its audience.
Yeah, absolutely none.
Absolutely not.
Although I do like, this is like the one I feel symbolic moment that Eddie Murphy got to do.
He gets the Annihilator 2000 out.
Yes.
And at first when he tries to do it, I think it's easy E that plays.
Okay.
And then what's the next one?
Jerry Lewis.
Uh-huh.
It lets you know.
He's got him on the mind.
Yeah.
Oh, good call.
Well, no, he's in a lot of interviews, he's like, Jerry Lewis is his hero.
Oh, yeah.
He's a huge, Jerry Lewis.
Oh, I didn't know that.
Nut job.
Well, I mean, that makes sense of it.
why we would do nothing for us.
I guess so, or money.
Or money.
First one's pretty good.
I still like that first one.
Absolutely.
I haven't seen it forever.
Are you knocking the clumps?
Oh, yeah, I am knocking them.
Absolutely, I'm knocking them.
I haven't watched it in a while.
But part two, the clumps, that's Janet Jackson as a lady friend?
Yes.
You got that.
Jada Pinkett's in the first one.
That's right.
That's right. That's right.
And we're, so we mentioned Elizando's getting these pages.
And unless I was not paying attention at some point, when he picks up the call
He's like, who keeps paging me?
He's just at some fire?
Yes, with John Singleton.
John Singleton is the firefighter just come in and be like,
hey, do you hear some black guy shot Uncle Dave?
It's a funny thing and obviously RIPD, Total Legend, John Singleton.
But, like, why is he at that fire?
What, like, what is this character doing?
I have a better question.
Why wasn't he directing this fucking movie?
Oh, that's a good call.
What the fuck?
You got to get the murderer in?
You can't give it to John Singleton.
Oh, Eddie, I heard there's a script that just got Greenlee
for Beverly Hills Cop 3. I figure
that's why I'm picking up the phone, right?
Yeah, John, you want to play a firefighter
and a useless cameo? Wait, what?
Do you like Hector Elizondo?
Let me ask you that first.
I love taking care of business, sure.
That's what I'm a fair movie.
Why?
Wait, why?
Strap it.
It's just, that is a bigger
waste, I feel, the old timers or whatever
getting in there. That's just a nice thing, but
like, you have an upcoming director.
Great director right there
playing a fucking firefighter.
It is dumb as shit.
A guy who knows how to direct action?
A guy who knows how to direct comedy?
Wouldn't you know it?
What the fuck?
But yeah, so he uses the annihilator.
I do like the rocket launcher
into the little merch cart there.
It's fun.
He just starts laying waste
to these security guards, though.
It's pretty great.
There are so many that get killed.
I mean, like, it's just, you got to kill them all.
You do.
And it's just like this park has to close.
It has to.
It has to. It's riddled with bullets.
There's blood everywhere.
There's no, like you would at least, all right, maybe you don't want the whole party about it
is you have to decimate and salt the earth around this fucking alien ride because like nine
dudes lose their lives in here due to the ride. Like, like Axel uses the ride to kill these
because he's already seen how it works. Does Saxton get killed?
Saxon gets killed with Steve McHadding. Oh, it's you. Well, we're going to, oh no. Yeah, it's like
it's like the made and clue. Yes, exactly. It is. It's the only POV shot.
I was just, you know, if he lived,
Saxon'd be like, I'll get down there with the mopping buckets.
Oh, it looks like we had a big blood spill
in the alien ride again.
Oopsie doopsie.
You can't shoot me, who's going to clean the blood?
And our big conclusion at the land of dinosaurs,
which, if anything,
looked like a bad state fair rider.
This cheap shit, I think this was what they said
was at Knott's Berry Farm or something.
Okay.
And just this bad,
dinosaur ride where it is your
hilarious. Here's a caveman
right next to all these dinosaurs.
Look, he's riding.
Wow, yeah. There's Jesus back there.
Oh, wait, there's Ellis. Boom. You're dead.
All right. We're done.
I mean, he shoots the shit out of him. It is awesome.
But like, it's very unceremonious.
Because they've been talking the whole movie.
There's no need for any kind of like mustache twirling or
parlor scene. And Hector Alizando got shot by one of the
guards. So now we have matching bullet.
wounds. I assume you get tattoos over those fuckers.
I've always loved Elizondo's
reaction to getting shot in this movie because he's just
walking along and he gets up in the arm and he's
and he just kind of like keeps, it barely
breaks a stride. Dude, that guy's a Terminator.
That's all three of them. All of them
react like, oh, okay, that happens.
You're totally right, Eric. That is what Terminator 3
should have been. Not some big sexy lady
that is going to garner attention.
A short Latino bald man
walking around
Southern Los Angeles, no one's blinking.
He'll be coming as the one you leave.
expect. Yeah, dude, not term it.
I don't want the termine, term, term, what do they call?
Terminatrix, which is weird.
Very sexualized. Is it that weird? It's like,
oh, she could the lap dance me? What is that?
Dom me. Don me. Don't me terminatrix.
She steps on my non-existent balls.
I want terma poppy, dude.
Yes. Yes. That'd be so cool. He's wearing a straw hat.
It would be great. His hand turns into a hammer.
It's a little low tech at the same time.
Paddle me.
pardon me terminatrix
I've been a bad boy
like of course like the Christina
Lockin like the suit that they put her in in that movie
it is supposed to be Albany native by the way
oh yeah that's right whip my ass Terminator
because that's exactly what it's the T625
it's the Hector Alizando model
pretty short its hand
can turn it to a hammer it can smoke
so that's good
other terminators couldn't smoke
I'm going to tell you this
the machines hated it
they thought it was useless
but I think it might have some use
now. Oh, yeah, the Hector Elizondo.
Yeah, no, Joshua Gabor has
two of these. Hector Elizondo
Terminators. Jackie Stallone,
she has five of them. She got them as
stocking stuff as he's a small guy.
T625,
it's on back order.
Oh, the 625. I don't know why
that is a perfect number for that robot.
That's what you want. It's certainly better than
our Ronnie Cox models.
But yeah, so then finally
Stephen McCatty shows up.
And it's, yeah, there's this, it's like, oh, yes.
And first, like, Axel, let's get out of here.
This is, you know, this is dangerous, you know, blah, blah, blah.
And you're right all along.
I just don't.
The movie doesn't tell you when it was he figured out McCaddy was crooked.
It just doesn't.
And there needs to be, the scene of him killing John Saxon needs to be a full scene of
of Stephen McCaddy coming in.
And then like, they say something like, oh, yes.
Well, we'll have this merchandise ready by Friday or something.
And they just shoot some of the chest.
you've mopped up your last soda
motherfucker. Exactly.
That's what happened when
Dean Cain gets shot in the second one
during the robbery
when Bridget Nielsen is like
because they're putting everything on him.
They've done this right before.
It's not like you didn't know what to do.
You just let fucking John Landis do it.
I do love the
Billy Rosewood just dripping blood.
You guys okay? It's very funny.
And then they all start, I guess
because they're all losing blood, like giggling.
like he needs medical attention
it's kind of funny
it's a funny little bit
and then yes the medal ceremony
which happens
they're all in wheelchair so like
we're talking total tops
like 10 days later
maybe two weeks
dude Reinhold's got like
his arm up in a cast
I don't think the Papier
machet is set yet
like this medal ceremony
and it's like
the park is open
I don't think so
you could not bribe
20 people to attend this metal ceremony
and this place is packed
the Oake Corral
not even just their
you know flesh wounds or whatever
uncle Dave got shot in the abdomen
or chest or whatever
that's going to take more than a week or two
oh yeah this old fuck dude yeah for sure
he's up here giving a public address and a podium
they're in the wheelchairs
and all the kids who were almost shot
are like are in the middle of gunfire
I mean you're supposed to go through that at school
not an amusement park glad we fixed that
in this coming on
you need some little kid
you need the joke to be like
fuck this I'm going to Disneyland
yeah
but yeah so it's like
oh and the
to say thank you to the friend
who saved me here's our latest cartoon
creation Axel Fox
and up comes to Fox
and hit that fucking theme song
one more time
they need to address that in the new movie
if you have like a cartoon character
based off of you that's got to be something
well yeah does it come with a gun
because that's what if I was like oh it's Axel Fox
I know Axel Fox as a person who's shooting
a gun everywhere
Well, you know, we used to, we need to get back to that world, right?
Because Elmer Fudd, he's a funny shotguns.
What's the cowboy guy?
Yes, Sammy Cyan.
Yeah, he's a big gun guy.
I think they've both put their firearms down.
I think they have radios now.
Wow.
Yeah.
They're all radios.
One different America.
Fudd has a very long radio and then it's a smaller radio.
You know what he's got two smaller ones.
Here we go.
Yeah, the elephant gun of radios.
But yeah, the Teresa Reddell's like, let's go fuck.
And he says, yes, let's go fuck.
And that's, yeah, he gets wheeled off to get his dick sucked
and that's the end of him.
Hey, what does the tunnel of love represent?
The tunnel of love is her pussy.
Oh, I see.
I get it.
I didn't get that before.
It's very blatant.
Yeah, no, as it turns out,
The tunnel of love is her pussy.
You could even believe it.
That is, uh...
Take a ride.
That is what we thought to be the end of this franchise
until later in this week or whatever.
This new one comes out and, you know, we'll see.
None of us have seen it.
The new trailer, I made it look kind of,
interesting. Explain to me how Taggart
is still working, though. I don't know what's
going on. We retired in this movie. He was chasing
golf balls, we say.
He retired in Phoenix, Arizona, and he's
back in this one. Maybe he's, maybe
he should just play the
Joe Flint character, the Hector
Elizondo. Just don't even call him
Tagger. You look an awful
lot like our old friend, tag. Oh,
or maybe it's Taggart's brother. We're doing
a fucking Curly's Gold thing. I would love
that. The general manager of the Phoenix
Sons is shot in L.A. for some reason.
Yep, you've got to get tag it back.
But for now, that is going to do it for our conversation on Beverly Hills Cop 3.
We'll go around the horn here.
Final thoughts, Eric Siska.
Yeah, it's not great.
I mean, there's no one wants to be there and you can feel it.
And the location, I think it sounds like a good idea, the whole like diehard at an amusement park.
Right.
But it gets old fast.
I say skip it this summer.
Chris Kemp.
Yeah, it's not good.
I think there are elements here
that could have worked again under a better director
better writing team
bunch of stuff but it's
kid friendly stuff for
a franchise that's known for its dirtiness
like showing like
oh my god he's such this low class guy in this
high class plays
thank God they don't do too much
like if they had gone full like snobs versus slops
I might have really hated this
but this I've just kind of like shrugged my shoulders
I'm done with it if you would like
if you prefer a better movie that
ends in a dinosaur park. Clifford, of course, is available for rental and dreaming at any time.
Or speaking of ending in a dinosaur park, any of those Jurassic Park movies could help you out there.
Steven. Yeah, it's not good. I grew up on it. I loved it. I have a lot of affection for
early Eddie Murphy. I mean, you know what I mean? But here, it's just, he clearly doesn't care.
I mean, and I do think it's funny that it takes the clumps to bring him back doing a Jerry Lewis kind of a riff to do like.
And there he's got his whole fucking ass
in that movie. You know what I mean? Here
He's kind of embarrassed. He's sheepish.
He's not, you can just tell he's not into it.
And you know, you don't need to brought some Pinchot to tell you that.
But it's nice that he came out and said it.
It's just, it's not worth it.
And I'm not super excited for Axel F.
Yeah. I looked it up, though.
At least with this fourth one, it is rated R.
So that hopefully means the profanity of violence would be there.
Because that's something that really could have killed this.
It's like a soft-ish recommend for me.
I don't like it.
It's a hangover movie, and I'm pretty sure I've tested that theory already on this film.
I believe that.
And it worked just fine.
It's not offensive at all.
No, no, no, no.
I mean, there's been worse movies discussed on this show over the years.
But, like, if this movie, because of, like, the whole, you know, Disney riff or whatever,
if it lost the profanity in the violence, then there would be no hope for this movie.
The fact that it's still, we're getting some good kids.
we're getting profanity.
There's at least that to hang on to, but it is
a shell of what I think are two really
great action movies that came before
in the first two. But that is going to do it for
this episode of We Hate Movies. As always, if you want more
content from us, we got plenty of shows

The Gleep Gloucery, another deep dive.
Another esoteric character you're not, you don't like, you don't know.
Nichos Marr, who is a guy that's like a Jedi, and he becomes a robot, and then he becomes a dead guy.
Tune into the Gleep Glossary.
He's part of the Callista Saga.

next Tuesday we hate movies rolls on
Steve Sadek with which motion picture
we'll be discussing. We are going back to
the dumb cop market with
Paul Blart Mall Cop Part
2. Yes, yes.
Is it a chapter 2? Because I would
really like it. I think it's just have that flavor
to it. I think it's 2. It's Paul
It's just...
Paul Cup, too.
Damn it.
Yeah.
So, more Kevin James
humiliating.
I haven't seen this yet,
so I'm very excited.
We're doing like...
We didn't plan on doing a cop summer,
but we're doing a cop summer.
A lot of cop,
big cop action movies, man.
That's true.
Call a mall security guard.
A cop is a bit of a stretch,
but I guess we'll go with that.
They all want to be, that's for sure.
That's true.
So until next week with Paul Bort 2.
I've been Andrew Jupy.
Steven Seda.
Eric Sisker, Chris Cabin.
Take it easy.
The tunnel of love is her pussy.
The tunnel of love is her pussy.
