What's going to be. on screen live. My name is Andrew Jupin. And this is our show somehow Monday, February the 3rd, 2025. Uh, yes, hope your week is starting off great. Uh, hope, uh, you were excited to watch the Grammys last night. Congrats to all the winners there. Uh, jelly roll maybe. Um, not too familiar with the pop music scene, folks. So that's, that's the award show that makes me feel most like a skeleton who's turning to sand. So we stay away in this house. Although I think Sabrina Carpenter maybe won some stuff, which is, which is cool. I'm familiar with Sabrina Carpenter.

Anyway, some other old as fuck dudes who don't know any of the winners last night. Let's bring them in. You know him. You love him. First up, let's go next, Mr. Steven Sadek. That's right. It took me, I remember when I heard about Sabrina Carpenter's, is she related to the other Carpenter's for the 1970s?

Oh, Karen and then the brother whose name I don't remember? Are you wearing a Michael Clayton shirt there? I sure am, dude. I need to let people know that the truth can be adjusted. No shit. Speaking of someone who's no stranger to addressing the truth, Mr. Eric Siska. Sounds like we need the, instead of the Grammy Awards, the Granny Awards, right? Yeah, hell yeah.

Right? And it's like, who's the best grandma in the country? Dude, the Grammy Awards, I think that's a category of the AV. if you know what I'm saying is that right are they doing that are they granny granny shagging is there awards for that I mean there's certainly granny shagging out there on the internet if that's what you mean uh I don't know what we'll have to conduct we'll have to conduct an interview here with granny shagging expert Chris Cabin it's referred to as mature it's not oh is that right granny shagging is not really

the accepted terminology at least on this side of the pond of course over on you know in the UK you can use Danny Shaggin as much as you like. It blows my mind how well versed you guys in and all these terms and things. I would, look, language is ever evolving. You have to keep up with it. I mean, these are... That's right. Also, by the

way, come on. Everybody knows Kendrick Lamar. Shut the fuck up. Oh, right. Who's that? Who's this? What? Did you say Kent? Do you say Ken from Street Fighter? Kenny Loggins? Was that Kenny Loggins?

Who had the disc track against Drake? Hey, Kenny Loggins, a Grammy Award-winning artist? If not, should be. Maybe. I have no idea. Let's try to stump you guys with some Top of the Box Office real quick. I'm curious to see, especially there's two in here that I'm like, does anybody remember these movies? First off, this one, Top of the Box Office, this day, February the 3rd in the year

2020, 2012, 2012, 2012, this is a little teeny movie about some boys who kind of get superpowers. Oh, is that, yeah, I was a guest chronicle as well. That is right. Wow. Seattle set, apparently. Yeah. Oh, yes. At least according to that poster.

Here was a movie in 2022 was deemed the movie that, or one of the movies, I guess, that really started bringing people back to the box office, real nostalgia trip, three generations of nostalgia of dudes playing the same character. Hmm. Is that Toop Gun? No, it's the Spider-Man, right? Oh, there it is. Dr. Strange made the poster.

Here's another one. I'm like, what the fuck? And there's apparently two of them. 2014, top of the box office on this day, buddy comedy that I had no interest in watching. Cop comedy, I should say. No interest in watching, though, huh? I believe one guy is a cop and one guy is not a cop.

Is it let's be cops? Oh, no, but that is a bad movie Oh, cop out. Oh, no, right along. Yes. I don't think Kevin Hart's a cop in that. Right. He just is going to marry Ice Cube's dirt.

Look at the fucking terrible poster work here. Look at Ice Cube's head on this poster. That is not the way his head was ever naturally positioned. Well, no, just looking at this, if Kevin Hart stood up, he'd tower over Ice Cube, but I don't think that's a thing. No. Yeah, you're totally right. Right.

no. They should have got more accurate body doubles. And finally, previous episode, last year celebrated its 20th anniversary. That's right, top of the box office, on this day in 2004. So one star is a TV actor that somehow has made

a ton of movies. This is a previous episode. Fan favorite, some might say. 2004, you said? 2004 movie saw us making some jokes about child abuse. Oh, That could be anything.

Hell yeah. Click, clink, clink, cling, clink. And with that, hold, I'm going to fix my camera. There's something weird going on. I'm flashing for the second. It's going to say, it looks like it's the office from Joe versus the volcano in there. But yeah, speaking of office, the box office was in decent shape over the weekend. Fucking finally, let's take a look at that real quick.

This is a segment we like to call. Highest Grove. By the way, hello to folks returning in the chat. Of course, I'm so Rachel, Caboose Bird, Tata Hababa, Liz Gee, Rose, Foolish Hooligan, Bubbles. Love that. Bubbles says they're baked. Mm. Hell yeah, bubbles.

It is. Good morning to you, sir. That's good. Hello, Bucyrus, of course. Love seeing our bud Bucyris. Josh Wohl, Shane Canadian comic pickups. That's the whole name. I don't know.

All hail the order of boop also. That's sure. Steve, I saw your picture and I got to say, we walked by it the other day and I stopped. I took a picture and then like, I didn't want to like further poison the internet by posting it online. But this Betty Boot musical that's coming up. I don't know, dude.

It looks pretty creepy. It looks pretty uncomfortable. Yeah. Get ready for the perverts to come back to Times Square finally. Exactly. That sounds like something that could sweep the granny awards. Well, that's something where you are going to have at least one character

known as the moocher. So of course you're going to have somebody outside pretending to do those walks. I don't know, because there's footage when you walk by it because we actually went to see a gypsy yesterday on Broadway, which is really great the autumn McDonald's. Revival, they call it.

But it's Romani, by the way. It's called Romani. Well, that's so funny. thing is like they have shirts and it's like i don't think i want a shirt that just says gypsy on it i don't want people think i'm going to pick pocket them or anything so oh thanks or travelers uh but the uh curse them yes there's a there's a there's a big projector of like i guess the previews of the boop musical and you can see it happening and they have like remember how she used to be that old guy apparently the old guy is in it the big oh man he's got come on betty boop shut my cock

Wow. So that guy made it to the musical. Now, I would like to assume, because I didn't see no footage or anything. I would like to assume that it's just like the woman dressed up like her and not like a big fucking head. It's not to write David Lynch passed before they could get the big head. Sure. Chay thing. Now, Betty, in this scene, you have to remember

while you're singing your song. All the men in the audience want to be pulling it to you. Pulling it. I'd like to think that's what he called it, maybe. I just couldn't imagine what is that even going to be about. It's got to be about trying to get stooped, you know? It's one girl's erotic journey from Milan to Minsk.

Yeah, it's trying to get a husband, maybe. But then again, that's not, you know, not, not, so in these days so curious what we're what we might be yeah i don't know yeah there might be a barbie-esque twist and she might be just trying to find her own independence hell yeah at the end they get she gets her vagina well maybe it's a thing where it's like you know this was like betty boob was like the 1920s like super unprogressive like maybe it's just they don't want to like jump it too far in the future it's a little bit at a time so she's like singing a song about like maybe i'll take a typing class yeah anyway here's what

what's going on at the box office this week. Chris Cabin's favorite movie of the years of our flight risk. Massive drop. This is the biggest drop of the weekend. You don't say. 52% to, let's see, with the actual number yelling at that.

Just like the plane, it dropped. Wow, it's like Daddy came home for the box office and whipped that movie with a belt or something. Or something. Yeah, Daddy. Daddy did something of that box office. And I'm so happy that Daddy's here to make my film do terribly.

Thank God for Daddy. Oh, I can't meet my daddy. Jesus Christ. Oh, that guy's got problems. A movie that does not have problems, of course, though. One of them days, this movie's got some legs, everybody.

Another $6 million for a big box comedy at the box office. I like seeing that. Still have to see the movie. Sure. But this had the best total. We can only drop fucking 25% you guys, this movie. Doing real well. And it's looking like

$34 million is what it's made domestically. No foreign box office for this. But on a budget of $14 million. So well done, folks. Well done right there. Oh, Chris Cabin's other favorite movie of last year, Mufasa. Oh, yeah. Yeah, baby.

Look at that. These beasts. These beasties. This guy now in its seventh week, it's just printing money. I probably recouped everything. It's just a money factory. I apologize. We're asking this probably two weeks in a row.

Has any of us seen this yet? No. I have. You have. Oh, of course you did. Now, Chris, do the animals, do they talk with human voices? Or is it like voice over? No, no, they're talking.

That's disgusting. You can't make an animal speak as a man. That's against God. I mean, they don't have like man mouths, if that's what you're talking about. It's an animal mouth. Yes. But it's opening up. It is talking, yes.

They're drawn at each other. Is there like a big, like, and then he meets Rafiki and it's a big deal? Like, is Rafiki established? Yes. Yeah. I mean, there's plenty of them that are that way. Yes. Yes.

Yeah, plenty. Yes. Many of them. By the way, don't worry. John Oliver did come back to voice that bird. Yes. Oh, thank God. He has to do his one movie role a year.

Yes. One as a voice usually. $653 million. dollars globally so totally yeah uh something we will uh be reviewing a little later in the program but uh something new into the box office uh pool this weekend companion yes from new line cinema uh you know decent okay opening here nine and a half mill not too shabby um we'll see what what's going on here this it's a 10 million dollar budget so we'll see what's going on but big big bummer for this movie there's a whole lot of horror

coming out this month. Next week, hard eyes. A couple weeks after that, there's the monkeys right around the corner. Yeah. So it's got a lot of ground to make up before there's like some outright competition. A monkey I think will give it like hard eyes I barely have heard of.

I've seen like I know what the I've seen the poster and everything, but I haven't seen a trailer yet. I'll probably give it a shot this weekend. The hard eyes bit. It might do well. You know, like you know, kids love emojis like the emoji movie. Oh yes.

which I was so honored to be a part of the emoji movie I played poop I was Captain Poop The kids that grew up on the emoji movie are now old enough to see heart eyes Yes That's their first horror movie

And I'm kind of curious I mean because I guess Companion is Making its money as a horror movie It's not really a horror movie When you get into it It's more of a at best a thriller A sci-fi thriller

Yeah I would call it It's Megan too it's mega two um so we'll see about what y'all thought about that i did not get to the theater see it but uh coming in at number one i don't this is something that like i could probably get pretty baked and watch at home it looks like this dog man move yeah no no way i would never know no way you can't you mix drugs with that you're in for a bad time that guy looks that's a scary poster yeah that's scary that's what i'm talking he looks the animation style more than anything kind of grab my attention

part dog part man all hero now is this he better have a man mouth if he's talking English oh I think he's talking of a blue street yeah I do but he's a dog mouth yeah it's a dog mouth not a man you this this search for a man mouth I mean what do you want it to look like

Robert Swigles old Conan bits where it's just like a man mouth yes yes I do okay I do and it's the dog man is also just doing a bad Arnold Schwarzenegger impression that's also what's happening congratulations on DreamWorks Animation man this is their third one in a row

to debut at number one after Wild Robot and Eric's favorite movie of last year Kung Fu Panda 4 which is still on the top 10 right it's still on the top 10 definitely yeah it's somewhere in there it's like I think it's like

8.7 somewhere in there but yeah you know big big money for this 41 million globally yeah I don't know folks on the chat was this a television show? I didn't look about. No, there was a book. One of those like, kind of dire of

kid kind of style. Oh, that sort of stuff. Books for boys kind of a deal. Gotcha. What's the page count on that? I'll let you know, man. You're looking to get back into the reading spirit. You are a boy and you need to read. You do,

would you need to trick Eric into reading? Yeah, no, it's very, it's difficult for me to read. You can read this new kids book, search for the man mouth that's coming out I don't know if that's a kid's book Yeah I don't know oh yeah Yeah it's a little dog

And he's got a Robert Smigel man mouth And he's taking a road trip for some reason Searching for his father You again get your sex book out of the children's section Get out of here you Yeah that's all though do is just tell you to go away They certainly wouldn't call anyone No they're no

I'm so Rachel in the chat Confirm same author as Captain Underpants that doesn't belong in a kid section either that was a movie for a couple of years though too right yes that was and it has a similar style so I can see it by that it's the Jeffrey Tubin biopic yes indeed

I don't think that was the whole problem I mean it still would have been bad if it was just underpants but I think they got the whole Captain Noah undervance that's Jeffrey Cuban the whole McGilla They call him. Right. Yeah.

I bet they're fucked up looking. Speaking of Jeffrey Tubin's old balls, last week, we had a live show. Oh, we did. You like that transition? Yes. We had a live show go off Thursday night. We were talking Frozen Empire, the Ghostbusters sequel. It was a fun as hell time.

And you can still catch that replay right now, everybody. That is still going on through February 13th. If you couldn't make it on Thursday, if you couldn't get it over the weekend, and it's still there for you right now. It's a little of a spicier show than you might be normally used to. We had a lot of fun on that one. Yes, we got very, very dirty.

And unfortunately, because it's one of these live broadcasts that things we couldn't edit it afterwards. It is what it is embarrassing for us to even have this out there. So maybe you want to take a peek. Also, the T-shirt is available now, teapublic.com, with our merch stores over there. And all of our proceeds are going to the Center for Reprope. Center for Reproductive Rights

There you go I'm sorry it's not a children's book Those are adult words Setter for Pinkton Underpants You can catch this replay Right now get your tickets over at moment dot coast Slash we hate movies Eric is indeed right about the merch initiative

Every quarter this year we're dumping Whatever we have made that quarter From our merch store over to the Center for Reproductive Rights By the way, another thing that you'll be able to get in that merch store, I don't think it's up yet, but it will be eventually, is the amazing new poster art that we're about to debut right now. Our great and talented friend, Felipe Sabarro, has outdone himself, fellas, for the poster, for our three-night residency at the Oxford Comedy Festival. Folks at home, get ready for this shit. This is fucking great. Look at this.

Yes. Felipe has outdone himself this time. And we are involved in this show poster year, but all six shows and the four of us are represented in this poster art for the Oxford Comedy Festival that's happening this July, the 18th through the 20th, we say. But I'm really excited about all this. Those tickets are going, by the way, we're seeing people every day like, oh shit, just have picked up either like my tickets for one, my tickets for some, or my tickets for all. Either way is fucking cool, but I am loving seeing these people making like a long weekend out of it. man. I'm kind of curious, like, you know, when we get there, what if a certain murders start happening again in Whitechapel, you know? Oh, you're going to bring your black bag, huh? Exactly.

Set up shop. There has been some questions about these shows. I want to clarify, people are like, oh, and then you're going to go do a show in Ireland afterwards or here or there. No, this is the only time will ever be in Europe. So it's there. Come and get it. This trip. is just these six shows, because frankly, six shows in three days is quite a bit. While we, the four of us and our families may be venturing out after the fact, this residency is the only time WHM will be playing this year in the UK.

These six shows, we're doing two we hate movies episodes, one we love movies, an animation, a gleep glossary, and my God Almighty, a Star Trek Nexus, where we're covering the episodes speaking of Granny Shagging.

Bev is banging her grandmother's ghost boyfriend. Love it. Head over to our website, whogempodcast.com, click on that tour page. All the information about the residency and also information to get you to that replay for the Ghostbuster show is right there ready to rock and roll for you. Yeah, moving on. This was something, you know, I don't know, we're going to check out the trailer. I think some of us think it looks kind of cool. Some of us maybe not.

I don't know. We'll see. New, see again, I almost had a horror movie, but is it going to be more of a thriller? I guess we'll find out. Maybe we'll get some clues in the trailer.

This is trailer segment. So we're talking drop, everybody. We're talking the trailer for drop. I guess I should say. It's a new one from Chris Landon, of course. think some of you guys have seen

Chris Landon movies I looked it up I still have yet to see a single movie of this too really I like yeah I keep biffing on it I like both of the happy death days yes and he's he's also freaky correct I like that too I like Ricky I've seen I've not seen either happy death day

which I know people like they're good yeah I like I like them both they're very good he also did that Anthony Mackey like we've got a ghost horror family that one is horrible That is absolutely ghastly It was a direct to Netflix thing

I think Jennifer Coolidge was involved Gasly or ghostly was it? The A, not the O I'll be the grandby in the room I don't know how to do air dropping I don't know when you're supposed to do it When you're not allowed to do it Like what even is air dropping

Oh this is what this is about Yes this is when this I know how to do this Okay you go on an airplane You air drop your penis to Africa Okay It's available This is why this is why this is why Eric was not on the show for three months. Oh, right. I remember that.

That was the controversy. Got it. So, Steve, an example of, like, what I use AirDrop for just to give you a practical non-fucking pervert reason. Sure. So when I make promo cards for the show to post on social media, so, like, these grid things, like tomorrow's episode on

identity. I use an app in my phone to make that, and then I send it to my laptop via airdrop so then I can schedule it on various platforms and shit. So the non-pervert example You have to email that at nothing? No, no emails. Can you believe it? I've got to pull up to my computer, take out my teeth

and send that as an email. If you're ever feeling too old, Steve, there is a two-minute YouTube video that'll show you how to do it as well. Exactly two minutes long. I've actually never air dropped before. I've certainly not done it this way. which appears to be the movie is about this woman

who starts getting nefarious air drop messages or whatever. Most people start doing it when they're 16, 17, 18. But it's okay to start later, you know? You can start when you're around your 40s. That's okay, too. I don't want anybody to feel shame about it. But I was 1618, their phones didn't exist.

That's how old I am. Well, cell phones in this, yes, yeah, sure. No, we were using the can with the strings. Oh, okay. I mean, I'll just, I'll just put it out there. Airdropping ain't no fucking brand new technology. No, I'm sure it's not. You've had plenty of time to familiar yourself.

Anyway, the folks at home have had plenty of time while we draw about air drop technology to get the trailer pulled up for themselves. If you've not done that yet, it's right below in the show's description. Which, by the way, when you're there getting that link to this drop trailer, click, click thumbs up, click subscribe, all that good shit, get that alert notification, all that stuff. All right, fellas, we're about to watch the train. trailer for Drop. Hopefully it's dick pick free, but

we'll see. All right, you dude's ready? Yep. Yeah. All right, three, two, one, go. It'll be great if that's what this movie is about. She keeps getting dick picks at this restaurant. Yeah, you can think this being like a Tim Robinson sketch instead. And this is the woman,

the other woman from last season's White Lotus. Yes. Oh, yes. Okay. Sure. She's the one who, she sleeps with the in the cave at the end? Just a date. It's never just a date if you're in a Blumhouse movie.

Exactly. Sorry, I got a drink because I was nervous. And this is the non-embelled actor from It Ends with Us. Oh, I didn't know there were two dudes in that movie. There is. He's the good one. Oh, okay. He's made it out unscathed?

Yes. Oh, drop. No way. the meme stuff that's pretty funny oh dude i love that meme uh oh yeah oh so this is what we're doing she's getting meme meme dropped oh my god that is terrifying oh platinum dunes is involved that i didn't know oh are we never leaving this restaurant i think yes yeah it's a who done it who dropped it Who dropped it? Oh, see, now someone's at the house, though, so hopefully we leave the restaurant.

I love a good home invasion. I've been always playing on doing one of those. Okay. So this guy appears to still be the good guy of this movie, but I gotta say if it turns out, like, he's in on it, fuck that. Mm, probably. Right, now, just go home. But if you leave, your son died. Oh.

Here's the rules. Life hack. Stop caring about your kids. That'd be funny. You're like, oh, you could have left the whole time. Absolutely. No, you could have just walked out, and we wouldn't have done anything. Will you kill your date?

Sure, I don't know that guy. Oh. Look at that skyline. It looks like the last scene of Fight Club. She's got a little DSB, dude. Yes, exactly. You're going to kill this guy, and then what are you going to tell the police? Oh, you know, a meme.

told me to do it. I killed him for the sick meme points. The horny emotes told me to do it. Oh, no, don't do it, dude. Multiple silencers in this movie, by the way. I'm excited for that.

Falling out the fucking window? Oh, wow. Use your location, baby. Dude, I'll tell you what, falling out that window. That's pretty funny. I'm seeing dropping one for drops right yeah absolutely totally yeah i think piper in the chat is a good idea i would do that too i would turn my phone off and just enjoy a wonderful dinner you know what and you know what for a little while and you know what

if you have a dead sun after all this so what i mean like it's not your fault really at the end of day somebody else did the kill him be great her phone's fucking off i don't know what i'm supposed to do i mean what are we doing here what we didn't think of a fail safe for if her phone was off on the date. Oh, the whole thing's ruined. See, it's genius. I love that idea of just having a nice little dinner. 20 minute movie, man. So the thing is like, it's

this horror that people are afraid of leaving their kids at home. My parents went out to dinner all the time. Absolutely. You could go out to dinner. They're going to be fine. You were not kidnapped. As far as you told me, there was no talk of any kidnapping, so I think you're fine, everybody. Definitely didn't repress

any members. No. Okay. Why would well that makes me think differently but all right I guess we'll see but yes wide on April 11th the premieres at South by yeah we'll see I don't know I'm now excited to get real stupid at the movies so speaking of getting real stupid at the movies we saw some stuff this weekend we're going to review here

first up I think all three of you guys but minus me so have at it companion yes yes I saw this yesterday and I believe the like Andrew said the other two guys did too yeah this was I think I think Eric you gave it three and a half I gave it three and Chris gave it two on letterbox so that's kind of letting you know where we all landed

I thought it was yeah about where we usually land on things tight little kind of thriller I had fun with it I don't think the premise is very original I don't think there's there's not like now I'm just trying to defend it and I can't really sing its praises too much but I had a fun time because I felt like it moved quick It was short, and it kind of just knew what it was doing and did it. I agree.

I think it's a really, it's a tight little movie. It's not, it's not trying. I don't think it's trying for a home run. It's probably trying for a triple. It winds up with a double most likely, you know what I mean? Which is totally fun by me. You know what I mean? It got on base.

It's, it's effective. I think it's funny. It does have some surprises aside from the first surprise, which is, I think they even spoil in the trailers at this point. Oh, yeah, they do. I'll try. I'll try to spill here. The title kind of spoils it as well. I don't think it's that surprising of a twist.

No, and I mean, like, it doesn't explore that world terribly far, but I do, I mean, like, again, I think the cast, I think Sophie Thatcher is great. Jack Quaid is a lot of fun. And a guy that I'm really enjoying pop up and stuff, Lucas Gage, who's a smile, too, I guess he was on Euphoria, which I've never seen. Oh, Lucas Gage was also, he was season one of White Lotus, I think. Yes, exactly. Yeah, he's very, he's having a lot. lot of fun in this. It's a really fun character for him. Okay. So there's that. Okay.

I loved him and smile, too. I really, uh, really, really liked him in that. This like, black mirror extended cut. It's like, it just feels like, it's like, here's a premise. We're going to do as much as we can with this premise. Goodbye. We didn't really think about having an emotional arc or anything like that. We're just going to, it's this. Just take it and, you know, go away. But it is so much. The thing is, I feel like,

part of my, like, how I like this movie is because I keep comparing it in my head to Megan, which I didn't think was very good. Yep. And that's a movie that kind of blows out that world and it really falls apart quicker. I feel like having this really just super contained they're at a house in

the woods makes it a little sharper for me. I don't want to know all those answers because I know they can't sustain it. Yeah. This is a real Dr. Pepper and Mr. Popcorn for me. You know what I mean? It was just a fun little time with the movies. I saw two days

ago. I haven't been really like thinking about it a ton since. But again, it was exactly what I wanted. I think it's I mean, especially what's out now, definitely go see companion. Right, right. Let me, let me ask you this, you guys. What did you guys think of Harvey Guillen in the movie? Because I fucking love Harvey Guy. He's good. He's fun. Yeah, him, him, he has a lot of stuff with Lucas Gage. They have a lot of fun stuff to do together. Am I, am I the only one of the four of us that's watched the, what we do in the shadows TV show? Yes. I've watched it for a

I've seen a Chris, okay. He is, he's like, I mean, it's all amazing. It's one of the best TV comedies over the last, however long. But he's so fucking funny of it. And I actually, like, that Blue Beetle movie, which I did not hate, I wanted him to be in it more. He actually had, like, kind of an interesting character that they just, like, shit the bed with or whatever. So I was glad to see that he popped up in this at least. I totally forgot that Blue Beetle was a thing.

It is, indeed. Oh, boy, is it? I will say, yeah, definitely this over most of it, but I will say, still so far this year, Dennis Thieves, too, still the, the, the top dog, okay. That's, that's the one I had the most fun with thus far. Of the trash, that is the best of the trash. Yeah, I don't think this is really, I think it's probably, it's not directed terribly well. It doesn't have, like, a memorable, because I mean, like, from the guys that brought you

barbarian. Barbarian is well directed, where it has, like, where there's, like, the stakes feel real, and like the and like you get drawn in and thrilled here it's more like it's a pretty fun funny way to spend 90 minutes you know what I would say it's closer to comedy

comedy than anything else honestly yeah yeah I agree comedy yeah that's right did you guys all see like that full length trailer before you saw this movie or had you just seen the teaser I had seen the full length trailer I kind of knew unfortunately just the teaser but I honestly

within like 10 minutes of the movie, you already guessed. Yeah, you do. Oh, so they don't even Uh-huh. And then like within 20 minutes they basically tell you. And then, but then the other part is like there's other surprises after that, which just keeps you, keeps you going. So is Jack,

Jack Quaid is the main dude, I guess? How's he? Yes. Yes. He's, I like him in the same old Jack Wade thing. Yeah. I mean, it appears with like all the coming attractions that I'm seeing lately, man. We are going to have to really gear up for is Jack Quaid a leading man for movies? movies you know what i mean it's you got the other that fucking novacane movies that novocaine's

common man whether you like it or not that's gonna be a bigger test this is less like yeah this one this is much more sophy thatcher's movie i got it she's great i'm really good i i also i'm not gonna say anything but it is to me really it's funny that they're like sophy thatcher and jack quater essentially playing the exact same roles as the ones that made them famous yeah like in different tones it's it's it's very funny to me. Like, if anybody knows anything about Yellow Jackets, something very, essentially the same thing is happening in this movie

as that, what happens in that movie. Oh, Yellow Jackets got sex robots, dude? Um, a couple. Uh, you should see the second season. Uh, no. Uh, but it's, it certainly is not, uh, like that. It's certainly worth seeing. If you like this kind of stuff, you should see it 100%. And if you like Jack Wade and Sophie Thatcher, you should absolutely absolutely see it. It's great. Since you said it,

Andrew and now I'll say it. I think, I'm glad to me, is about sex robots it's not you know what i mean like no but it you know what i mean like there there's other ways to do this where it's about it's about love and blah blah blah blah no no this is a place for you to deposit your fucking semen into it then you know what i mean like they say love about that exactly it is right they know they know the score which i appreciate yeah i mean megan that's i mean i guess i'm on the other side of that i think megan's better because it does play with that the mother uh theme and like the stuff with allison Williams and the worlds and the place where you would build and like sell this stuff like to me that

is more interesting ultimately and even if you can't Chris answer every question like it doesn't so so dreary I never want to see Allison Williams moping around that house again in my life sure that's a fair point I still I've never seen Megan I guess maybe I'll give it a shot before Megan 2.0 maybe I'll give one point oh yeah I remember thinking Megan was fine I never watched it more than once I was not I was not there for the memeification of her little dance

number go off queen but like it's whatever but I you know so here's what's interesting right look at the trend here we got Megan we got this we got what the shit was that Megan Fox that's another the Megan Fox sex robot movie

yes I mean as we get more and more AI and that's all everyone fucking talks about seriously you're going to see more of it and move i mean this is better than afraid that's for sure can you at least chris can you join me on that i haven't seen it but i have to assume so okay good yeah all because like that's what i mean that's what happened is we moved from like essentially it was all like uh degrade horror versions of her yeah for a while and now we're actually getting like the actual robots in these things it's not just like a computer screen you're talking to

because that was the thing for a while it's just you get somebody to do the voice and that's it yes so i at least like having something to look at that's nice yeah but yeah so i think it's definitely worth checking out if you're looking again especially with the slid that's going on right now i think it's definitely yeah it's better than flight risk it is for sure well from what you guys said it would almost have to be uh so i am i alone on this one flip it over to comedy here uh the new one from nicholas stoller you're cordially invited never heard of it never seen it never I did not accept that invitation. I was invited many times while using the Amazon Prime app this weekend, but I did not accept the invitation.

I predominantly rent stuff from the show on Apple, so I don't get a I don't use Prime that much. Like when we use, when we do once in a lifetime, that's generally I rent because they're always there or they're at least on Prime or whatever. So I haven't seen these, but yes, that's why you don't know about it. It's an Amazon Prime direct-to-streaming Nicholas Stoller movie. I mean, this dude has made some big comedies. Like, he's the forgetting Sarah Marshall guy. Okay. You know, he did, this is his first featured film since Bros.

The Billy, What's His Face Movie there? He's the guy who directed, like, those neighbor's movies. I mean, so he's directed, like, some big, successful comedies. And this is just a thing where it's like, you could have put this in the... It's Will Ferrell and Reese Rooderspoon for crying out. in like a raunchier than I expected wedding comedy. So the concede of this movie is Reese Witherspoon is planning her younger sister's wedding. And Will Farrell has booked his daughter's wedding and they've double booked this tiny island bed and breakfast type place.

So it's like how do we do two weddings at the same tiny place kind of movie. My wife had a funny joke about that just because of course it's Reese Witherspoon's young. younger sister because she could be old enough to have a daughter that'd be getting married like yes right she'd be a grandmother exactly great grandmother already i will say at least the fact that it's not just two parents though does make it a little more got interesting because it's not just my daughter this my daughter that's fair it's like yeah they're you know like Reese whithersman's got problems with the mother who is uh oh the woman as played by the woman who uh chris you always said um she looks like John Lithgow dressed up like a lady

fuck is her I feel terrible because that's always Celia Weston that's the woman's name she's been around for a thousand years she plays like a a real southern kind of traditional old pin in the ass matriarch like kind of thing so like she's doing a character

which is pretty sweet you got Jack McBrayer as the guy who's like running this hotel space so you know there's those laughs there too The odd thing about this movie, though, is, and whenever I complain about this, I know it sounds like the Pac-Paul and the Kettle Black, the profanity in this script is unnatural. Like, especially from actors like Reese Witherspoon and Will Ferrell, they're just saying fuck or versions of fuck constantly throughout the movie. And you're like, what is, what is this doing for the movie? And it's not just them though, like literally every character minus maybe Celia Weston is.

turning the profanity up to 11. That's weird. I mean, because usually what that is doing is like, I'm used to, Will Ferrell saying curse words, I'm used to it. But it's usually because, like, his characters that you, the ones at least that I remember the most like from stepbrothers, the other guys is that like, it's very immediately they go to juvenile, juvenile behavior. Like, whenever anything is tested with them.

But this is a character from what I can tell from seeing the trailer and stuff, he's supposed to be like a loving dad who like is just maybe, a little, maybe a little overloving, but like, it's just a good single father for the most part. No, that's exactly what it is. And that's why it's weird. Like, he plays a widower who lost his wife when their daughter was like 10. The daughter grown up is played by Geraldine Vizwathanon from I love her. I love her. I mean, you know, if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all. And that goes with cussin too. No cussin. But for what, I mean, for what it's worth, I am saying good things about

I think it's a funny movie Like there's a ton about it That is incredibly hilarious It's just it's weird The amount of profanity And then also like it is just kind of long And the problem is The script

You know Especially because you have like Reese Witherspoon and Will Ferrell In these roles They're kind of both The main character in a way So like He has his end of act to blow up problem

She has to have her end of act To blow up problem like some of this movie it's just too separate of a track and you're like well what's going on with the rest of the movie so there's a little too much like going on because it's like this should be 905 and you feel you definitely feel that 15 minutes also like we are extending this movie well into the credits with like dance numbers and all sorts of shit that like doesn't fit the rest of like the swear jar heavy version of why because of But why? Because it's kind of like Mama Mia? Like Because you're singing you're singing islands in the stream. Like that's what you're, that song

plays a real joke in the movie. Oh boy. So then at the end of it, they just sing this everybody. It's one of those like everybody in the cast is singing it. Yeah, of course. We're at different setups throughout this shoot. Like, oh, hey, right here, can you just sing this song really quickly for two

seconds? Don't worry about it. I know you're not in the actual scene that happens in the movie. But for the fun credit sequence we need you to sing this song you know what cancer mom you come up here you belt up the end come on now you get in here and you give us a high note they do actually do a bad job

of like showing any kind of South Asian relative from that side of the family being invited to this wedding like there's literally like one little old Indian lady that walks her down the aisle for the wedding sequence

and like the woman doesn't have a line in the film and is never seen outside of that moment. So like kind of a bummer. Yeah, that shit's kind of weird. I have to hear more from like her obnoxious gaggle of friends, one of which was a pretty funny actress from a couple of guest spots on Abbott Elementary that we had seen. But you're just like where is the rest of this like there's no grandparents anywhere? It's just kind of but again, you have so many fucking characters in your movie that I feel like

something had to get cut somewhere. But you know I think it's a thing, you know, again, Will Ferro and Reese Ruther Spoon put something into the ecosystem? This is a, this would have been a big box comedy from the director of Sarah, forgetting, sir, but like, you could have done all that stuff. I don't know why you chose not to. I really don't. I always want to see like what that equation is, like X plus one times whatever equals release in theaters or equals straightest streaming. And I just never can make, oh, and or tax ride off, the third option. Uh, it's just never released it at all.

I mean, I assume at this point the presumption is, let's try as hard as we can to release into streaming. And you have to fight against that and giving it reasons to be released in theaters. And like the thing with Will Ferrell is that like I don't think he's had a movie. Yeah, like the house, the one with Amy Poehler was last time I remember like remember wanting to see one in the theater. His comedy started to bomb heavily. Like Sherlock Holmes or whatever that was. homes and watson i think it was called yeah yeah and reese witherspoon is well regarded but not exactly a box office draw tv she's she's tv down the morning show that's what i know her from her morning show that awful movie uh which was your place or mine the oh that was a tough one i don't know if anyone what was that what was that last year yes uh and it just missed our worst of uh it's her and i want to say ashton

Kutcher, am I correct? Yes. It's her and Ashton Kutcher, like two people that never got together and then like they swap apartments. It's like kind of like the holiday, but much, much worse than that. And it's neat. And then they wind up getting together. So long story. That's weird. Long story short, it's, it's, it's been a while for Reese as well. So I can kind of understand the big, the marketing thought of it. But I agree. Like it's these are the two of them together should be something to release in the universe, I think. And, you know, funny enough, of Reese Withersman being teamed with like comedy guys

comedy guys that have actually explicitly worked together in movies before she clearly has chemistry with Will Farrell something she did not with Vince Vaughan and that for Christmases abysmal movie that I watched over the holiday season like she's having fun here and she's actually funny

and uh you know some of this like she's playing drunk in and I just kept thinking about that DUI video. Oh yeah you gotta love that up I'm obstructing your justice? Yeah, there's a little bit of I'm instructing your justice tone of voice in this movie and I was kind of

laughing about that. But yeah, I don't know, it's a Nick Stoller movie that's very funny. They just say fuck too much in it, but I would there's worse ways, there's worst ways to spend an hour in 45 minutes. I'll say that. I'll say it. Companion, hour 37, got it meet. There you go. Yep. Hell yeah, dude.

Like, you're in and out of the theater in fucking two hours with pre-show? Absolutely. Like, let's, let's fucking do it. So, yeah, you know, this will probably be down the waistbin of streaming history soon enough but something that may just beat it to the bottom. Eric's going to talk to us all about

on this secret movie. There it is, a law room. spelling look at the poster alarum i went into this movie thinking it was going to be a bank heist movie or something yeah and that's just stalone trying to say alarm like with all these alarums going off i can't think straight what is it alarum it's not bad allarum is a sort of a okay so it takes place in the world of the spies right spies government agents and like the specter or the syndicate of this world is

Alarum and now Scott Eastwood okay terrible I mean everyone everyone everyone in this is terrible and everyone it's got a surprisingly big cast too for being a straight to streaming nothing movie no one's heard about

Mike Colter's in it as well oh man I wish that guy had a oh Willa Fitzgerald too I was just sorry I was just gonna say I wish Mike Coulter had a better career I think that guy's pretty fun he's terrible in the movie everyone is terrible so i you know it's not their fault it's it's michael polish's fault or whatever but yes this is directed by a guy who did some indie movies and then eventually did the gina carrano western for conservative media yes baby and he now he's back and he's doing alarum and uh not much happens in this movie i Stallone was in it more than i

thought okay okay that's something he's uh he's on a telephone at a hotel room for a while. I was going to say, is he filmed in more than one location, dude? Three, which is huge for him. This is great. Okay, so it's two hotel rooms, one where he's on the phone, the other one where he's interacting with Scott Eastwood, who, by the way,

is now full on just trying to do an impression of his father, which is terrible. So he's turning more like that guy who pretends to be Charles Bronson these days. He should just do that. He should lean into it, do shit action,

movies pretending to be his father more watchable. An unforgiven prequel with Scott Eastwood it would be so long. Yes, we'll call it forgiven. No, honestly, I know it's not a sequel or anything, but make it unforgiven with a four in it. Yeah, that's, yeah, that's yeah, that I think would be more. Well, you could do, yeah, like little dirty hairy dude, like that's

right fucking there, like him and, you know, let's say the 60s beating up hippies and shit. Another prequel, $1,000 baby, you know, go a little earlier. Sure. Well, that baby got up to a million. Yeah. Oh, well, this one girl I'm coaching, she wasn't paralyzed or nothing. She just can't box no more.

$1,000 baby. I love it. And you can have 50 cent playing a guy called 50 cents. He's a terrible fighter. He's also training. But this movie, Alarum. Yeah. Oh, sure.

Climax features Scotty's would square enough against a drone. which is like looking in the mirror Tell who is who for a while Yeah In the air Well I'm a little confused In the air Well you got like guns

Okay It's like a movie This is one of those movies Where guys wave around guns all the time Got it Oh okay Sure It's terrible

It's bottom of the barrel It's maybe even worse Than the last secret Stallone movie I cover it I don't know Maybe it's better Because Stallone is in three locations

and he actually goes outside at the end. He's probably got like 15, 10, 15 minutes of screen time. I'm imagining. So here's the question then. Has he gone full into like Seagall mode where he won't even get up like he's sitting? Like Seagall,

if you watch any of the later Seagal movies, whenever he's entering a room, he's like beelining it to a chair. Whatever that happened in this case, he needs to be in the chair before anything starts, even if it's a gun fight. To answer his question, the first extended scene he is in

he is fully seated the second one he's he's standing in a in a room with scotties wood but it looks like he's eye in that chair he wants to get back thinking about it and then the ending he goes outside

and wouldn't you know what he sits down on the floor there you go so okay he's not there yet he at least can stand for a little I bet you he's leaning in that second one yeah for sure he's there so but like yeah Once he goes full Seagal, then we're in trouble.

Then I don't think we're going to have to watch these. He just, he's got to stop. He just has to stop making these movies. The funny thing, though, is like with Seagal, I firmly believe it's like a, yeah, but stand it for too long now. These legs are going to give out. Like, yeah. I've seen all the Tulsa King.

I know that Sly can still walk around and kick and fight a little bit and stuff. So, like, this is just from a place of like, yeah, I don't give a fuck. Yeah, I'm sitting the fuck down, man. I only stand up if that pay. goes up yeah exactly a money issue you know yeah so i don't think it's like a from a from a place of out of shapeness or frailty like seagall clearly maybe but just more of a place of like fuck you pay me or these buns sit down like i think probably what we're going to see next is him uh like leaning towards like the faith-based community like angel mouth studios oh i would love that sure and stuff like that

I think that that's probably where he's needed at this point. Well, no, actually, what we're going to see next. I don't know. I mean, I don't know what we're not talking about. He's the next Godfather, for Christ's sake. Oh, well, yes, sure. He's fucking huge news. Yeah, explain this for the folks at home, Chris.

There is an Instagram. He was just having fun, folks. It was just for fun. It was just for fun. There's an Instagram post of him. He most have put me, me, me, me, and Godfather movie. Oh, no, no. me. He took it somewhere

from someone else because this was on Facebook a couple days before that. A friend of mine. A guy I went to high school with posted, yo, is this real? Well, no way. You were able to meet. Stephen Sadek, meme tracker. That needs to be a show.

Oh, it's just sad. Like, fallen for it is pretty sad. Basically, it's a fake poster mockup of the godfather part the family legacy. It's called. not part of part the family legacy there's no number they should be part for the family yeah yeah and it's still low looking fatter and healthier than he actually is and a i did a bit or something his eyes it's the eye he has like when the speaking of companion when she shut off the eyes yeah yeah essentially what it looks like he does have the whited over possession eyes on that meme that i did see then he posted he the caption that he posted with this image is not real just

for fun. See, that really suggested that he did it. So that's funny. That's, well, you've just lying on this. Right. I'm picturing him like sitting on his couch like, all right, Chad, G, B, G, let's destroy the rainforest with some fun ideas. Yes. And then I commented on the

Instagram here. I was expecting some interaction even with a fan, but no. I said, this is disrespectful. Please delete. No, guy, come over here. What, what movie do you wish you were in that you, you, that GAPT thing will put you into, oh, Turner and Hooch? I think Guy Fieri, Turner and Hooch. Oh, that's disgusting.

Oh, wow. It looks like he's, because I'm now looking at his Instagram hanging out. It looks like he's going to be in that Jason Statham, a working man movie. That's exciting. Oh, nice. Oh, how about that? I guess they actually like each other. That's something.

That's pretty surprising. Yeah. That's two weeks ago, he was posting more God. Father AI things. Come on. Godfather Part 4 trailer. It's him with a white jacket on smoking a cigar. Jesus.

Like, I don't know. These guys. No, is this real? No, of course not. You idiot. No, bro. It was just for fun. It was just for fun, bro. I mean, I will say Facebook, which is the only reason I'm still on Facebook, is to watch the

AI slop that people post at this point. It is fucking the wild west out there. terms of like fake movies and everything else you've been following the the sam elliott uh fake pushing conservative t-shirts when he's not conservative it's a picture of sam elliott and my aunt has posted it four different times four different memes and he's holding a big picture he's holding fake hands are holding a fake t-shirt and like sam elliott's heads over here he's a fake hands the fake t-shirt it's just like trump says i love everybody or whatever nonsense it is and it's like

And then it would be a big long descript about who Sam Elliott is and what he's done in his career and it's just AI slot. And the planet is over with. It's a charred earth for these boomers to get a

just for fun. It's just for fun. For fun. Yeah. You're going to be dead in a fucking maximum of 20 years. What the fuck do you care if the rainforest is killed so you can have some fun with your fucking pathetic fake casting shit? We will live on in the

husk and we will we will enjoy our time we probably won't but like hey maybe we will and we will have all these is he just and like you broke up there a little bit there pal yeah i couldn't i couldn't i couldn't hear you there chris you sounded like the companion rebooting uh now now it looks like he's just frozen so i don't know oh he's muted now oh there you're just it's a good thing it's the end of the show yeah i think we could just probably sure yeah we are getting to the top the hour here. So I think we'll just cut it. I don't know what's good. Chris, you're still muted is what the deal is there. But anyway, speaking of

living through the husk, our journey through the husk continues this week, folks, tomorrow, and we hate movies. Wait what you, where he gets underway. It's a whole month of us talking about movies with some twisty tourneys, and this is one of the twistiest turniest ones of all, James

Mangold's identity. James Mangold's identity. My goodness. This was a fun one to revisit, Ball. It's been forever since I've seen it. I thought it's a pretty fun convoy. Yeah, absolutely. It's actually ironic.

I think we're singing the praises of Jimmy Mangled quite a bit on that episode and then he got nominated like right after it happened. You know what I mean? So we're not talking about the Oscar nomination in it, but it just was no. Yeah, yeah, no, good call. Because then it would be like,

I can't believe they didn't talk about the Oscar nomination. Oh, that's kind of more than. Maybe the Oscar nomination talk was only on the ad-free episode. That's right. Yeah, if you want to listen. to this without any commercials over on the Patreon WHM

Patreon.com slash We Hate Movies rather. That's where you can get that ad free. Also, Thursday on the Patreon only for the people of the $5 level and up. We love movies this month. Wait, what? Donnie Darko. Wait, what? Oh, wow. Hell yeah.

This was, we go long on Donnie Darko, baby. Deep dive into his bedroom with a jet engine. Right through the floor and out the other side. But that was a lot of fun. That was another like revisiting, not so much like revisiting because I'd seen it sort of reasonably,

but like revisiting and actually talking about with people. Yes. So that was a lot of fun. And then Friday. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, hey y'all. Strap in for Friday. This month's once-on-a-lifetime drops. And it's all about tall, hot blonde.
