Hello, I'm Andrew Juppin.
Steven Sadek.
Sean Winer.
And we hate movies.
Hello, everyone.
Welcome to the program.
Welcome to the second to last.
Hashtag SVEE3.
Sad to think about it.
I know, I can't believe it.
But everyone was kind of expecting something of this cloth, which is this...
We do teen movies.
You got to do a teen movie because you know what?
Like sometimes the action movies, it's a little scary for everybody.
You know, all the big bad sci-fi action ears.
So you do Rachel Lee Cook cleaning a pool for two hours.
Is it every summer so far that you guys have done teen movies?
Is there one per summer?
No, we did nine months last year.
We do like the counter-programming month.
Right, right. You know, something, you would bring someone to who doesn't appreciate the action movies.
They more enjoy the rom-coms with your big teen stars or your Hugh Grant's in that case.
He's kind of a teen star. If he was an American actor, he could have been on a teen sitcom.
You know what I mean? Like, he would be on Dawson's Creek as the older, moody, British boy.
He would have then had his own spinoff called Nervous Nellys.
He looks about the same age as Freddie Prince Jr. in this film, by the way.
The film is She's All That from 1999.
This is sort of like a sequel episode because two summer blockbuster extravaganzas ago, we did Boys and Girls, which is another Robert Iskove film, noted dance choreographer Robert Iskove.
Did these two movies, did from Justin to Kelly, a bunch of other dog shit.
Yeah, just kept throwing fucking water on that career as much as he could.
Just bales of water.
but yeah I mean this is this is why I think we we sort of did this movie this year because you know in the boys and girls episode we did posit that you know we thought she's all that is the better movie of the two so I guess today is you know the ultimate decision and she's all that has come up on this program more than I'd like to admit and my wife was finally like you know you gotta put your money where your fat mouth is prove it just talk about she's all that and she's totally right and to do so the only way we could do it was bring in no
Matthew Lillard expert Sean Winer.
It's true. That is my
specialty on this program.
Last time you were on, we did hackers
where he's also sticking his
tongue out of people. Right, where he's playing the
exact same role. It's the exact
same thing. He's just not a reality show
star yet. I'm
kind of forgiving. I don't know if this is
a general feeling, but I'm forgiving to
Matthew Lillard after seeing him in the
descendants. Yeah, right? Like you see
him in that and you're like, oh, no, oh,
okay, you're trying to redeem yourself. So you
try not to go at him too hard, but he's kind, I mean, he's kind of really great in that movie,
you know, and I don't know if that's a credit to, you know, uh, uh, uh,
Alexander Payne's directing or what.
I also think that he's a, a reason that scream is successful, like, not the reason by any
means, but like, he's in there. He's in that arsenal of, that arsenal of Jamie Kennedy,
who's also a reason scream is successful. Let's not pretend that he's not.
No, because there's things that you can point to in scream and be like,
Yep, and there's things that you can point to and be like, no.
So, like, case in point, Matthew Lillard.
Yep, definitely.
Case in point, Skeet Ulrich.
No.
Exactly.
And you're like, yeah, that's a guy that gets it.
Yeah, his performance as Stu Marker, there's no reason I should remember that full name.
But I do.
That's his character's name.
He's great.
It's a memorable character.
Speaking of Skeet Ulrich, is next summer going to be the Newton Boys?
Is the Newton Boys on deck?
I wish.
Oh, man.
I would feel bad attacking Richard Linklater.
Oh, did he do that?
Really?
I think that's his movie.
It might be, yeah.
We're like Vincent Dinoffrio
plays everybody's grandfather in that movie.
Like, he's so much older
than the rest of the Newton boys.
Ah, but they're all boys, though.
That's...
They're brothers?
They're supposed to be brothers in that movie?
Yeah, it's like bank robbers.
She's all that's a movie about a fucking bet, I guess.
Right, so yeah, the famous bet.
I mean, let's...
Whatever.
There's no reason to plot.
through this movie because everybody
knows this movie. You've seen it.
You've seen it. You've totally seen this movie.
I would be hard pressed to find
a person who's going to listen to this episode and has
not seen this movie. I don't know. I think we're a bunch
of old people though.
You know what I mean?
Yeah. All right. Yeah. You're right.
So let me backtrack. So people
our age. So like 30 year old
and above and then maybe like
five years behind. You've seen
this movie. And you remember
this movie because everybody was, this was. This was
This is a buzz movie.
This was a big movie.
This was a movie that was so big.
You went and saw it with one of your dude friends
because the girl from the drugs ad was in it.
I'm looking at me.
What drug?
Oh, she was the brain on drugs, chick.
This is your brain.
And this is your job and your fucking family.
And she's making the scrambled eggs.
And she's smashing the kitchen.
Oh, yeah, you think that fucking egg was something?
Now I'm going to break this whole house.
Are you guys talking about Little Kim?
Little Kim was a...
No, Rachel Lee Cook.
Uh, Lil Kim also in this movie. We'll get to her. We'll get there. It's kind of a star-studded cast of people I don't like in movies. Like, it's just, really, Matthew Lillard is the high mark. Tell me. He is. And Tim Matheson, but that kind of doesn't count. It doesn't count because he's got literally two scenes in the movie. So much, he's in it so little that the second scene he has. I think both of them take place in Freddie Prince Jr's bedroom. Yeah, likely. And the second time you're like, oh, yeah. You're in this movie. Animal House. What is, so we're
afflicted by Freddie Prince
Jr. starting with
I know what you did last summer. Yeah.
That's about... Yeah, I think that's right.
And then we get like boys and girls and we get this.
No, no, no. No. No. This was first. This was first.
This was first. Girls was 2000 or 2001 possible.
Uh-huh. Uh-huh. There's a summer catch in there. There's that Scooby do movies a little later.
Summer catch. Matthew Lillard.
Two fucking Scooby movies. Matthew Lillard.
This movie, Matthew Lillard. Wing Commander, Matthew Lillard.
Those dudes are best buds.
They're noted best buds
Noted Hollywood best buds
I kind of like noted Hollywood
Best Buds. I'm a fan.
Ben Affleck and Matt Damon were like, we're best buds
and they're like, ah, we got covered.
Do you think Matthew Lillard
and Freddie Prince Jr. argue over
which one's the Affleck and which one's the
Damon of their relationship? All the time.
Who's who? I think
don't be fooled by hair color because I do think
all right. I think Freddie Prince
Jr. thinks he's the Damon
of the bunch. Yeah. Well, yeah, but I would agree with that, though, because Matthew Lillard
has made a successful, a more successful career into, like, the dramatic thing, which Ben Affleck
kind of did first. And he directed a film. Who, Freddie Prince Jr.?
Matthew Lillard directed a movie called Fat Kid Rules of the World. I think it came out last
year that I'll never see. Right. It's on HBO Go right now. And it's like a fat kid
holding the lunch tray or whatever. It's in a locked vault in my mind of movies that I'll just
never see. But the reason, uh, Frey Prince,
Jr. isn't the Matt Damon of the bunch.
He said that David's stuck
around this whole time.
Who's heard anything about Freddie Prince Jr.
in five years?
Because he's just got that Sarah Michelle
Buffy money.
They don't have to do shit.
He's the guy that should do TV, like hardcore.
I don't know why he hasn't condescended
to television. No, that's true.
They all fuck around on those
like robot chicken programs.
They all do voices on those. And also
Freddie Prince Jr. did dip his
toe into TV. Oh, really? I'm going
pull up the old IMDB because it was recent
and it was
canceled.
Like almost as quickly as it started
this show is canceled. I'm going to find. He's doing
a lot of shit in video games
now. He's all over
the place with the video games. God damn it. Where
is it? It's here. It has
to be here. He's a great leading man if
he never has to talk. So he's great for
video games. Here you go. Two seasons.
Or no, it was one season. Two thousand five to
2006 is Freddy.
Freddy.
Freddy.
Freddy. It says
A successful chef living in Chicago
inherits three generations of family.
His niece, his sister-in-law, and his
grandmother, and learns to survive
living with three very different
women. Oh, my God. Dude,
Freddie Prince, Jr., listen to this cast,
Freddie Prince Jr., and
Brian Austin Green.
Good God.
Which woman does he play? Who?
Matchan Amick from Twin Peaks
is in it, too. Oh, man.
Does Brian Austin Green play the
Cokehead brother or like
The battling addiction best friend?
Probably.
I would say Brian Austin Green
Much better actor than Freddie Prince Jr.
He never got his chance.
No, you're right.
And he was doing all the right things.
He had three names.
He had three names.
It's the mid-90s.
No, no, no.
You're confusing things.
He was doing all the right things
if he wanted to assassinate a president.
No, but we're talking like mid-90s.
It's Sarah Michelle Geller.
It's Jeffrey LaVewitt.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Pretty Prince, Jr.
That's kind of three names.
Yeah, well, it's like two in a title.
You can call someone junior.
That's a name.
It's true.
They do it on fucking Breaking Bad.
That's why that poor prick starts calling himself Flynn.
Man, if I was just junior to somebody, that would get old quick.
It would be rough.
It would be really rough.
Who else we got in this movie?
Paul Walker.
Oh, man.
Paul Walker.
I think we looked this up before we went on the air.
Steve comes in and he's like,
Paul Walker's consistently made a movie every year since 1998.
Oh, really?
And we looked it up, and he only skipped like two years,
like 2012 and like 2003.
But multiple movies.
Multiple movies.
In a lot of years, it's like doing three or four.
Just doing stuff.
And the reason he missed those two years was because he just forgot.
He slept.
He slept through.
He slipped through all of it
He thinks he did all of them
But then he's going to look at his IMDB page
It'd be like, oh shit
I mean, but he hasn't made though
He's got all that fast and furious one
He's good
He's been in all but one of them
Like those are big paycheck movies
Do not worry about Paul Walker
Other things
I won't
You know what hashtag do not worry about Paul Walker
That's it
Other things
IMDB'd
During the screening of this movie
wore, you know, how old Anna Pacquin was when she was nominated for her supporting actress role.
That she won for the piano.
That she won, things not looked up on IMDB when Paul Walker was nominated for anything.
No, we skipped that one.
Maybe he's won a couple of Saturn Awards.
I don't know.
What are those for?
This is a movie that cleaned up at two major awards ceremonies.
The Teen Choice Awards.
It really did.
The MTV Movie Awards.
They won Best Romantic Duo at the MTV Movie Awards.
Oh, this movie won...
A couple of Moon Men.
Yeah, they won all sorts of Moon Men and...
No, no, no.
The movie awards are the popcorn and all sorts of fucking orange blimps or surfboards or whatever the shit they give you at Nickelodeon.
So many slime baths were won.
So the plot of this movie is it's basically my fair lady with idiots.
it's...
I almost spent
hard cider all over
all of our equipment.
Oh, no, it is.
It's Pygmalion, which is my fair lady,
with morons.
Right, right.
Add in a dabble of morons.
She's all that.
Because everybody comes back
from spring break
and Ferdie Prince
Juilliard.
Freddie Prince Juilliard?
No.
No.
Those words do good.
Freddie Prince Juilliard
is three names.
That would count.
That's why his career
never took
off quite the same way as Brian
Austin Green's? I was at a
musical the other day and I looked up one of the actors
and he won the Robin Williams
Prize at Juilliard, which is
something that I think is amazing.
What is the parameters
of winning that prize? Being obnoxious
to your entire class for four years?
Being successful while
hopped up on goofballs.
So Freddy Prince
Juilliard is the hottest kid
in school and everybody loves him. He's a captain
of the soccer team.
rough and tumbled soccer team
I mean this is southern California too
So I guess they could have gone with like
Captain of the surf team
So like
You know it's at least they did soccer of real sports
Surf races
Yeah
Like what was that game where you could be like
The gorilla on the surfboard
Oh CNC something or other
Yeah
See and music factor
But it's like CNC sports
Like sports incorporated
You could be like a monkey or
Or just a cat
It was a monkey a cat or a guy
or a really weird native with a big fake mask on his face.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That game is burned into my memory.
Classic non-aquatic animals.
Continues.
So he's the guy.
He comes back.
He gets dumped by Jody Linne O'Keefe, who's never done a movie after this.
I mean, I guess she has, but nobody's seen her.
She had the numerous names going for her, too.
She did.
And she was, you know, she's a super hot chick.
She met Matthew Lillard on vacation.
He's kind of like spring break.
Spring break.
MTV's spring break and now this reminds you by the way of like the salad days of MTV
because this is like like 90s MTV is kind of like the last bastion of like you know what we
look back on fondly as MTV like again you're 30 years old or older like this is what we're
talking about like you know that last season like that real world Hawaii that's the last
season where ugly people could be on the real world you know all that kind of stuff and this
spring break like he's being kids at home aren't going to remember this but the puck character
from real world that guy was an obnoxious prick who they make into like a VJ in this movie the
the side note uh the ugly people on real world Hawaii wore Rudy and tech correct I thought tech
was a very handsome man tech was a handsome tech's not an attractive guy he's got style going for him
so he gets away with it he's not a good looking dude he puts himself together well you did
By Rudy, you mean Ruthie.
Oh, Ruthie, the drunk.
Yeah, she was heinous because she was just throwing up in the pool in every episode.
She was going through some shit.
Kaya, however, was a very, like a Carrie Ann Moss type.
Do you have any more names back there?
Because I'm really impressed.
Who else do we have?
I'll think about it during the show.
All the rest of the dudes in that season, though, aside from tech, I think were done.
Oh, I don't remember you of this.
There's probably a Colin in there.
There was likely a Colin or a Trevor.
So he gets dumped by
What's Her Face
Jody Lino Keefe
It's like
Oh my God
Who am I got to go to senior prom with
And Paul Walker's like
He's just a mouth-breathing dummy
You know
Don't worry about Paul Walker
You worry about your own shit
Do not worry about Paul Walker
But he is a mouth-breathing dummy
And he's a terrible actor
In this movie
I would say this about Paul Walker
At least
I just recently watched that Fast 6, which I think is a fucking great action movie.
So that means the stunts are really cool.
And the script is terrible.
But he's a better actor at least in 2013 than he was in 1999.
So he's making strides.
But it's like really slow strides that if you're not paying attention, it kind of just looks like you're the same.
Yeah.
But in this movie, he's terrible.
And he's the kind of bad actor.
I pointed this out when we were watching it.
But it's like, unless he's being spoken.
to by another actor or he's delivering
a line of dialogue, he just
turns off like a robot.
He's gone. It's like a motion
sensor light, you know?
Like if there's no one in the room, it just
fucking goes dark. You would think he was a
lamp in the scene. Like you just
there are people talking and engaging
with each other and he's a lamp. Which is
ridiculous, Steve, but you're totally right when you
said this. He is being
run around in circles by
Freddie Prince's acting in this movie. Oh yeah, he's
just acting circles. Freddy Prince's
acting circles around him.
Which he's never done to any other human being
or plant or lamp
on this planet.
Freddie Prince Jr. is a terrible actor.
He's married to a wonderful,
beautiful, talented actress who, you know,
has a great, great show that rakes in bank
forever. You're listening to three hardcore Buffy fans here, ladies and gentlemen.
Finally, every time we do this, we're doing this show,
it's me and Andrew, and we're always like, hey, Buffy everybody.
And then there's some other idiot on this couch
that doesn't like Buffy the Vampire.
Slare, finally Sean's here.
We got the trifecta going now.
We know.
We know.
But yeah, Frey Pinch-Tchiner's terrible.
He's always been terrible.
He's got, you know, like, he obviously kind of had the hookup coming in to a certain
extent.
He had some celebrity status from his dad.
He comes onto the scene.
He's got that great, like, I'm going to push the majority of my hair, gel it forward,
and then right at the front, I'm just going to give it a vertical kind of 90-degree thing.
Oh, he had that.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, I was rocking that for a long time.
I think Freddy Prince Jr. might still be rocking that.
Oh, man.
He's really like a Gavin Rossdale to Gwen Stefani.
Like, they're these guys who just, they just, it sounds sarcastic, but that has to be true.
Because it's true, it's totally true.
These, like, ladies who know how to continue, you know, they can grow with the times.
And these other guys just, like, fade into this early 90s.
I'll just, like, put the kid in the baby Bjorn and hang out by the pool.
I mean, no, yeah, he's stuck in 1996 forever.
Yeah, that's just what it's going to be.
And he's, like, everything on his body is just going to start getting old,
but he's still going to be wearing Kangall hats and fucking V-neck polo shirts.
Figure out how those were designed because they're all over this movie.
It's amazing.
It's amazing.
Polo shirts, ribbed T-shirts.
Just horrible.
Like, Aztec designs.
Black shirts with brown jackets.
Like, everything is insane.
Now, quick question.
Paul Walker is to Ryan Felipe as Freddie.
as Freddie Prince
Giener is to who
is the guys who have like
gotten found a way in
but like Paul Walker
was always shut out
because Paul Walker
isn't attached to
a talented person
right that's his mistake
that is he tried
to attach himself
to racially cook
but that didn't work
but again remember
do not worry about Paul Walker
do not worry about him
he is laughing
naked on a mountain
of cash somewhere right now
practicing his lines
for Fast and Furious Seven.
They give it to him a year early, just to be sure.
They'd actually put those movies out every six months,
but it takes him a year to memorize the dialogue,
I think is what happens.
And Vin Diesel's sitting there going,
God, come on, man.
I just want to make these car movies.
Want to eat my batteries.
He's a robot.
Anyway, so basically, the bet is,
the My Fair Lady bed is,
Freddie Prince Jr.'s hot shit.
He's like, you know what?
Fuck, fuck that girl that dump me.
I can make anybody the prom queen.
And Paul Walker's like, no, you can't.
Not anybody.
He goes, no, you can't.
Click.
And he stops talking.
He's out of the scene.
And basically, he powers down.
They're looking around.
Who can we make it?
Who would be?
And he's like, you know what?
Paul Walker, you get to pick.
And he's like, mm, all right, do I want to pick the girl who's overweight?
No, I don't for some reason.
do I want to pick the girl with like
you know weird hair
that's it the really attractive girl with a weird
haircut it's like you're not
fooling anybody here movie
you know like there's like
a witch fucking flies through the frame
and he's like
he's like
this is the parlor scene
of like 90s movies
you're like oh here we go like okay
select and we have to watch
a minute to two minutes of just
like horrendous options and then a beautiful actress gets revealed to the camera.
Do I want to pick Susie Esman, Ria Perlman, let me see who else is back there.
Danny DeVito and a wig.
Oh wait, there's a cute girl with glasses.
Oh, she'd be the toughest one to be Prob Queen.
Now, this is, I'm reminded of a motion picture that came out a few years back, a Paris Hilton vehicle by the
name of the haughty and the naughty.
Oh, excellent. Okay. I never saw it, but I know the premise of it is, like, Paris Hilton is
Paris Hilton, and she's got to be friends with, like, this ugly chick, who's played by
the girl who played Al on step by step, like the kind of tomboy daughter. I don't remember
the actress's name, but she's very attractive, right? And in the movie, they make her look
like an out-and-out witch, like she's got fucking warts on a fake nose and fucked up teeth and groaning hair.
though. That's what I'm saying. Like, do something
to make her not look like
attractive Rachel Lee Cook. If he's, if the whole thing is
Paul Walker's gunning to find a quote unquote ugly chick
just ugly fire makeup department. Give her something crazy. You know, like
she's just out of like some like, you know, mental health
institution. So there's something that you're, right. So maybe not a physical
thing, but like, yeah, maybe she's like a volatile. Zany for an exchange
student. Hi.
Something.
It reminds me of like, remember how
convincing Britney Murphy was
as the ugly girl and clueless?
Oh, yeah. There's no way you're buying it.
Nope. Nope.
But they did stuff to that character.
I mean, that's a, that's a,
you know, the side plot of that movie is a total pygmalion
thing also. But they did that.
She's more of like an Eliza do little
situation. Yeah. Because she's got the
accent and she's just a little
dim-witted, you know what I mean?
So, like, they did stuff. But Rachel Lee Cook
is just like attractive.
talented artists, you know, she's like
her problem is
she's just a little bit introverted.
Well, she's a fucking troll.
What a freak.
Send her to the circus. She
doesn't have a lot of friends.
I'm going to stop the one literature major type.
I guess the letter. It's based on Emma, and that's a
side plot in Emma is the relaunch.
Oh, you're right. You're right. You're right.
Excuse me. So the clueless part of it.
Yes, is Emma. The only reason
why somebody doesn't do an accent in this
movie, though, is because nobody
has the acting chops to pull one off.
And there's no way they could afford
to pay a fucking accent
a dialect coach for that long.
Can you imagine try to teach Paul Walker to do an accent?
I mean, he's fine, though.
He's doing fine.
Don't worry about him.
Don't worry about Paul Walker.
It's, it is a, oh.
That's a pretty blues situation, which he's also in.
I don't think he does a Southern accent on that movie.
Nope.
He's the one person who is like, don't worry about Paul.
Exactly.
Just don't worry about Paul Walker.
He's not going to do it.
that accent. There's no attempt
in any movie where he should possibly have
any kind of accent. Fuck it.
Just fuck it. Leave him alone.
He's like, do you not worry about
Paul Walker. He's like,
oh, I'm Paul
Walker.
So basically it's like, oh my
God, this is going to be really fucking difficult.
And I mean, side note to this
episode, everything we're about to say
has been covered in better form and
not another teen movie.
Which really skewers
this film. I love how many times,
looking up things on this movie, they said
parodied in Not Another
The Other Teen, like, that was one of those, that was
the scary movie thing where you literally took the
script of a movie and just inserted jokes.
Right, right. And then not of the teen movie
was kind of Can't Hardly Wait, because I mean
let's not forget the late 90s, we were trying to do
John Hughes movies. We were trying to bring that back.
We really were, and I mean, I actually
not even for research, just for Pleasure.
I watched Can't Hardly Wait
pretty recently. The wife and I did also
and it fucking holds up and it's still a
totally hilarious movie total time capsule movie it's a fun movie no i like that movie i like
that movie there's no reason to not i mean it's not a perfect fucking movie and it gets pretty
ham-fisted at parts but newsflash so does every john hughes movie ever that's just what happens
it's a movie that knows i mean this movie kind of knows how ridiculous it is but that movie is
just aware and allows itself to be kind of stupid right like like all the the jocks are so
heightened and like everybody it's a heightened reality at the very least
And I think that's really fun by comparison to this movie that just looks like, you know, like a high school, like community theater production of that movie.
Yeah, this movie is, it's a movie made in like the same kind of vein as the can't hardly wait movie, right?
But it's made, it's written and directed and acted by people that have no comedic sensibility whatsoever.
So it just comes across like, yeah, maybe it's not taking itself too seriously, but it doesn't understand how to have fun with the material either.
Right.
So it just looks like they're doing a bad job at taking themselves seriously.
Like this joke from Paul Walker.
His house is enormous.
His dad owns Harrison Ford.
The actor?
No, the car dealership.
That's hilarious.
Wow, great.
Harrison Ford fucking car dealership.
And like, honestly, if you give that joke to Seth Green, he'll make it fly.
I'm not even the world's biggest Seth Green fan at all.
He'll pull it off.
You give it to 10 out of 12 people performing at a shitty open mic night in downtown New York City.
And they'll pull off that joke so as it doesn't stop everything and have you listen to him go,
I mean, it's so terribly delivered.
Terrible.
Like if it was a car, if you were driving the car of this movie and you heard that line delivered,
you'd think like a tire blew out.
You'd almost run off the road.
And you'd stop and you'd get out
And you'd make sure everything was okay
And then you'd like very cautiously turn the engine over again and drive off
So you put your directional on you're on like an abandoned desert road
And you're like looking to see
Because that's how dead stop of a line it is
Like you're driving along that jokes delivered
And somehow the car is upside down
It's just stopped upside down
Everybody's like oh no
It's underwater
You just have to push it out
and I mean that's that's a lot of this movie and so basically we've got our we've got our it's a really ready-made plot right like and now he's being deceitful so he's a bad guy but he's going to learn his lesson and she's everything this movie's really sincere so she's got a dead mother she does this she's an artist in this well let's not she the art that she produces it looks like the art that jack nickleson's the joker makes in Tim Burton's Batman like where everything is
gruesome and, like, scarred up,
and it's all collage-based.
A lot of newspaper clipping.
Yeah, it looks like Meg Ryan's collage
and fucking whatever that movie is there.
The picture we did.
Addicted to love.
Addicted to love. Yeah, her weird stalker collage
in that movie.
Because it's just, I expected her to walk into her art class
with Cleo Duval and be like,
Lawrence, music.
And then just start walking around.
Trust or whatever the fuck song that is.
Now, but here's what I would.
give to the authenticity of how fucking
terrible her artwork is
it's the same thing like
it's the short stories I wrote
in high school you know what I mean
it's the fucking screenplays I wrote in high school
right right just transferred to shitty
fucking collage painting but you can't
trust it that's the whole thing it's like
yes if a if a
capable filmmaker and a decent cast
were added you'd be like oh
that is high school artwork but instead it just
looks like they're continuously being
incompetent at making movies.
Well, yeah, because you think, like, oh, this is supposed to be really good,
which I think it might sort of...
She got to get to make fun of an art class.
There are art school bullies in this movie.
They rough her up. They do. They're like, oh, nice
painting, really derivative. And they, like, shove her.
Yeah, it's like Cleo Duval and some other woman. They're like,
fucking put a cigarette out on her arm.
It's Cleo Duval and her stunt double.
That's the way, though, by the way, that Freddie Prince kind of snakes himself into talking to her.
He sees an opening.
Is, you know, he says something about...
about like how he's interested in art and he needs art tutoring he's like yeah yeah I really like
art uh maybe you should give me some tips or something and we can hang out and you could tutor me
a painting or whatever and she's like really you know because her mom died and she's really
sensitive like she's very much about like i don't trust it she's like stone cold steve austin the late
90s dta don't trust anybody that's absolutely true you never know when you're going to get a
fucking body slam from behind you it's just a great little less reason she gets a slat a little bit
chair to the head.
Dwayne Johnson comes out
out of the back and rock bottoms her.
I'd love it.
So, yeah, by the way,
she's got a best friend of this movie we need
to talk about. We certainly do. I don't know the
actor's name. The fella's name is
Eldon Henson. You might remember
him from the Mighty Ducks.
I think he's an idle hands. He is.
He's one of the zombies in idle hands, him
and Seth Green. He has something sticking out of his
head for the majority of the film. Is that possible?
I would say he's actually probably one of
better actors in this movie, if not one of the
best, because he's at least comedic
and funny, and, like, he just really needs to
play a gay guy. Like, this is the
90s version of the gay teenager. It's
the closest you could get to having a gay
teenager. He's not allowed to. He's doing, so
what they do is they swap out gay
for fat. Yeah.
They do. It's so awful.
Like, you can see what they're doing.
He's also, by the way, Ashton
Coucher's crazy friend in The Butterfly
effect. That might be a stay tuned.
ah it's 2004 next year
we'll get there
and he wants
he goes up like she's like
I don't know
and he goes up to her
quote unquote
as a heterosexual guy
and he's like
Lainey the hottest guy in school
is asking you out
what are you doing
and it's like
what is like
just say that this character's gay
and we're fine
and like well let's move on
from it
and to boot later on
she looks at him
and she says like
do you think I'm kissable
which is hilarious
but
do you think I'm kissable
and his response
should be no because I'm not
attracted to women
but instead it's
I just want to
you know me I eat a lot of hot dogs
it's like it's a real like
rock Hudson situation in 1999
it's interesting though because
this same exact character
exists in mean girls
the dude that's friends with Lindsay Logan
and Lizzie Kaplan in that movie
it's the same fucking character
but he's allowed to be gay
yeah and you know and that's what
four or five years later
or something like that,
whatever mean girls came out.
I don't know.
Yeah, that's a good movie.
It makes those choices that it's a little...
Though in that movie,
what's her name's not allowed to be a lesbian, right?
Lizzie Kaplan is not a lesbian.
Although, I guess she's being made fun of for looks.
So they all...
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, no, she's...
I retract.
The character's like not...
The character, I believe, is openly heterosexual.
So it's not like any ambiguous.
I'm just in art classes a lot, you know?
Right.
Doritos.
Like Clea Duval in this film?
Yeah, Clea Duval.
whose character is clearly a lesbian but she just takes a bunch of art classes that's the only way you can be gays wear hot dog wear overalls you know be overweight and just take a bunch of art classes these overalls this kid is it's a bad i mean there's a lot of bad looks in this movie a lot of rib t-shirts and so on and so forth polo vnecks that happened somehow i don't get hybrid clothing this kid's out like you know like when you go to the casting office is like all right this is your palate and like these are the outfits you're going to wear and
Every outfit he had has a t-shirt, overalls, and a fucking button-down shirt over both of those things somehow.
It's not just him, though.
Like, you know how sometimes, like, stories come out, like, small towns?
Like, the high school has, like, a fucking clap outbreak or something like that.
This school's got an overalls epidemic going on.
Sure does. Because Rachel Lee Cook's wearing them.
There's tons of extras wearing them.
By the way, side note, this is some of the worst extras casting I've ever seen in my life.
Of course, you, I mean, the whole thing with an extra is that you don't notice an extra, right?
Like, you fill the frame.
You should not notice an extra.
I watched extras so much more than I watched Fray of Prince Jr. in this movie.
Yeah, like, for people whose job it is to be shaped like a human being, some of the performances from these people are outweighing the people on the poster.
It's ridiculous.
And it's all, like, you know, they're fucking, they're looking at the actors so they're, like, participating in the scene when they really shouldn't be.
there's a lot of bad dancing going on you know this is a bob iscove movie so we're going to get to some choreographed dancing later although this time there's no fucking soap machines anywhere i was a little disappointed about that it might be a wild theory here but the reason we entertain those out okay good good um the reason we might be noticing the extras uh over the main cast members is because they might be acting so they just might be kind of coming out coming through the screen and we're just trying to look past
That's true.
Our mouth breathers?
Yeah, if you, if you had a painting and you had the background characters in color,
but the foreground characters in black and white, you would notice the background a lot more.
Oh, yeah.
That whatever the fucks go, whatever is going on in the foreground.
Certainly black and white.
Yes.
Now, here's something I want to put out there, and if it comes across a little crass, I apologize.
Oh, for this show?
But it's something that I'm legitimately curious about.
So in this movie, her little brother is played by Kieran Culkin.
Okay.
Kieran Culkin's character, say that, he's dual hearing impaired.
He's got, he's got hearing aids in both ears.
This is never addressed in the movie whatsoever.
My question is, if you have, if you're in a wheelchair, you've got fucking crutches or hearing aids, like in a movie like this, should it not be addressed?
Right?
You got to talk about it?
At a certain point, it's kind of cool where it's like, oh, you know.
You know, we're totally fine with this character.
He's trying to normalize it.
It's normal.
He just does what he does.
We're not to talk about every second of every day.
But it turns to do a thing, but what are we trying to say here?
What are we trying to do?
I don't need a side scene where Kevin Pollock takes him to the fucking audiologist.
But like, I just like maybe there's a scene where one of the school bullies is making fun of him for the hearing aid.
Freddie Prince Jr. steps in as like, hey, man, lay off this kid, you know.
Don't make fun of people with disabilities.
Like use it as a teaching opportunity for all.
all the, you know, 13-year-old kids
that are going to come see this movie.
We come full circle to how this movie doesn't do its homework
because they don't understand disability or being impaired
because there's a scene where Rachel Lee Cook has her glasses take it off
and she's like, meh.
And you're like, you're just wearing them?
And it's like, you should try context.
She's like, I have them.
I just know, okay.
Like just write a conflict into the scene.
right a conflict to resolve.
Instead, we're just fucking doggy paddling.
Like, I'm looking at the two of you right now,
and there's two pairs of glasses staring right back at me.
If I were to take the glasses off your head.
We wouldn't be staring at you.
You'd be like, hey, man, I need those.
And I'm not saying, like, you're going to be, like, instantly blind,
but you're like, I need these fucking glasses.
For a reason.
You know, I don't need the mill house reaction.
I'm like, I need those to live.
That's just the fucking greatest line ever.
But at least be like, don't take my glasses off.
I wear those. Those are prescription glasses.
Well, this all, the scene you're talking about
happens right after he goes to the performance
art. Holy shit.
He kind of talks to her to go in a performance.
Because he's trying to win this bet. He's kind of being a
scumbag. He's like, look, I guess I like art
or whatever. She's like, well, I'm an idiot. So she
goes with him to this art show.
And there's a really long, overly
long, running the clock
down scene where we're doing
a performance art piece that's like, hey, is it
performance art funny? And
I can get that in 30 seconds.
takes three minutes of nothing and there's like little people involved and like
Alexis Arquette's running around with his or her shirt off so by the way
Freddie Prince Jr.'s other problem in this movie aside from like being best
friends with Paul Walker which you shouldn't even worry about just do not worry
don't worry about Paul Walker. I'm fine guys I'm fine thank you and that's a more
accurate impression so his problem is his dad's incredibly rich they live at a palace
His dad, Tim Matheson from an animal house.
Or not Boone.
Otter.
Otter.
Thank you.
So he, and he's a dardy.
He went to Dartmouth.
He's a total dardy.
He's a total dardy.
I think my great-grand uncle was a dardy.
Oh, wow.
Yeah, Uncle Stan.
So he's a dardy.
And, you know, he's like, oh, have you decided what college to go to, son?
He's like, no, I haven't heard of back from any of the colleges yet.
Blah, blah.
I don't know, dad.
Leave me alone.
So he goes upstairs, and he reveals a stack of acceptance letters from Harvard, Yale, Dartmouth, NYU, like all the big ones.
And they all, in the first line, say in all caps lock, welcome to insert Ivy League school.
Here's what that is, because it's all, I guarantee you, if we went back and freeze-framed every single one of those fuckers, it's just the same wording.
Yeah.
And it's congratulations.
welcome to
Dartmouth
through all of them
because this movie
isn't a movie
so basically
that's his
big
that's his white man's
burden in this
film is that
he doesn't know
which I really
school to go to
which is really difficult
I can't make up my mind
so he goes up
on stage
because like Rachel Lee Cook
is like okay
you know you want to be
an artist
how we'll be a performance artist
he's like
performance art
performance art
he pulls out a hacky sack
oh come on
and starts doing a
hacky sack of his life
like
a good college. It's like kind of a train spot.
Yeah, don't let it drop. Don't let it drop.
Pressure.
Pressure. And it has my favorite thing in the world, which is a hacky-sac stunt double.
Who's about a foot and a half taller than him.
Clearly like a skater dude.
He looks like Paul Ryan.
Failed vice presidential candidate, Paul Ryan.
But it can't be Paul Ryan because Paul Ryan doesn't know how to hack.
No, he might. He's noted in Rage Against the Machine Head.
Oh. God, what a fucking dickhead.
anyway. And, you know, so after that, like, she's like, oh, wow. And he gets a big applause because everyone's impressed by him for some reason. And he blows them away.
The embers start to, her facade starts to crumble a little bit. She's like, oh, thanks. You got really beautiful eyes. She took that dumb glasses off.
Take off those stupid eye glasses. And she gets so fucking offended. But, like, you know, not because, like, oh, you just ripped the glasses off my head. And I barely know.
you she's more concerned about the fact that like here's the most popular guy in school who
like says something nice to her and she's like uh what does he say she's like uh this happened
once before it was in the 20s it was called surrealism and like fucking walks away it's like
granted even maybe you're uncomfortable but like he didn't do anything bad he was like you
have pretty eyes and she's like oh great well because my whole world's upside down everything's
fine this could work out but you're already lying
to me. You're lying to me because I know for a fact my eyeballs are disgusting.
Well, the weird thing is he's really creepy in this movie. Like, not only is he
trying to win a bet. And, like, we don't know what's going on inside Freddy Prince Jr.
Because he's Freddy Prince Jr.
Oh, wait. Actually, I just want to stop you there because I actually have some audio from what's
going on inside Freddie Prince Jr.'s head.
That was every those exclusive audio.
Wow.
Wow.
Yeah, it's crazy.
Is that live or is that archive?
It was archived, but I was able to get it in preparation for if it came up for the show.
Thank you.
That's awesome stuff.
Technology.
You know, so basically, he's like, let's go to the beach.
And she's like, all right, let's go.
He shows up to her house the next day.
And it's really, like, again, like, this isn't how you court somebody in the 90s.
Maybe you send her an email, a tech.
You're going to page her.
You're going to page her.
I apologize.
We learned that.
You're going to call her landline to landline and be like, hey, let's have a nice one.
Cordless to cordless to cordless.
Cornless to Cardless, have a nice conversation.
But he does not do that.
He just keeps a creep.
He keeps showing up at her house and like, so much knocking on doors.
Kieran Culkin's got a crush on him.
He's like, oh man, I really want a big brother.
And he's like, ha ha, that's great.
He's like, hey, want to play Sega?
And he's like, not really.
And Kevin Pollock's like, I'm blue collar Kevin Pollock, by the way.
You know, I clean pools for a living.
My daughter's so sweet.
We live in a mansion.
I love Jeopardy and wearing my bathrobe in front.
front of company. Don't worry, I'm not
balled under this baseball hat, which I wear
through the entire film.
Part of the reason why
Frey Prince Jr. seems like
such a creep is that he doesn't start
acting until about two seconds
after the door opens in all these scenes.
So he's got this blank
Paul Walker look on his face, and
then you see him boot up and then
smile and say, hey.
Changing power auxiliary
from Paul Walker to
Freddie Prince, Jr.
So he's like, let's go to the beach.
She's like, I don't want to go to the beach with you because I just don't want to go to the beach.
He's like, you got to.
And he's like, well, I'm going to hang around your house all day and hang out with your family.
She's like, well, I guess I have to go to the beach now.
This is where Freddie Prince Jr. introduces her to his army of boy slaves.
Yep.
Because she's like, I can't go to the beach.
I have to help my dad clean the house.
I have chores to do.
And he's like, well, that's great.
I'm a whole bunch of people with me.
And so then all of these little boys just.
walk into the house.
And they don't, they don't define, I mean, you know, it's clear that they're JV, but the
letters JV don't come out.
When he says like, oh, it's JV, you get it.
But there's like a minute of movie time that passes where it's just like 13-year-old boys.
Does he actually mention how he knows that?
Yeah, he knew the JV.
Oh, okay.
It's kind of like that movie bully for five minutes.
Yeah, you're like, ooh.
Who are these kids?
It's going to make you watch all this gay pornography with me.
Which brings us back to the.
the fact that Freddie Prince Jr. is not
a nice guy. No, no.
Never sell you on anything about
him, except for like his white man's
burden. That's the only thing that
he's contending with, and he's
not a nice guy. He bullies JV
around. He's introduced by walking
up to a picture of himself and
smiling at himself. The one
opportunity that they fucking blew
it with with that shot is I
wanted him to walk up, look at the...
It's a framed fucking photograph, by
the way, because he's like class president.
He's Mr. Prez.
That's his license plate.
Oh, God.
I want him to walk up to that picture.
Look at it.
Kind of tilt his head like a dog and then like polish part of it with his cuff.
Like that's the one thing he doesn't.
Like there should be a smudge on there and he's like, uh, uh, uh, uh.
I think of it like a dog, he wouldn't know what it was.
He tried to like walk into it.
He's like a dog.
He thinks it's another him and he's really confused.
He's actually, that's the one full understanding of disability in this film is he's
he's got like a facial recognition problem.
That's why he keeps looking at Rachel Lee Cook and saying like your eyes are beautiful.
And she's like, you can't see my face.
It's clear to me because you would say that false statement.
So we go to the beach.
We're having a great time at the beach.
And there's a, there's a volleyball scene that does not hold up to top gun, I'll tell you that fucking much.
Does not hold a goddamn candle.
So this is like, there's a bunch of, uh, uh, uh, notable.
actors here that we can sort of get out
of the way to like round out
their gang. Let's run through them. So it's
it's Deulay Hill from
the West Wing and USA
Network Syke characters
welcome. Perennial Syke
just all the time. And then
you got Lil Kim. Lil Kim.
And then you got
Gabrielle Union. Bad Boys 2's Gabriel
Union. And then there are a
couple other actors that don't really cut it.
Just some people that you've seen.
of stable that kind of what...
I mean, and Cleo DeVal is another example of this.
Who's also in Can't Hardly Way with a bunch of other people from this movie.
Yeah.
Like, that was the thing.
Do they know Can't Hardly Wait was the good one?
It was the high water mark, really.
If Cleo Duval's like, huh, which movie was I in that was better?
Can't Hardly Wait or she's all that?
I think she probably has an understanding that it's Can Hardly Wait.
Maybe she had a better time making.
She's all that.
She's got a bigger role in it.
She's got some lies.
A little more dramatic end of things.
you know, she's only got like one or two lines
and can't hardly wait, but I think
everybody knows she's all that is the
the low end of this wave
of teen movies. The second
story of this movie that kind of,
it happens kind of in contrary to everything
else is Paul Walker
realizes that she's hot and wants to fuck her.
And like, that's, he just
sets his laser vision on it. It's like,
dude, if you don't want to fuck her, I'll fuck her, bro.
He says it by saying,
look at the bubbles on her
when she gets into
her swimsuit. And what's amazing
is like Paul Walker is pitching
mostly slang
that he's made up or somebody
the screenwriter
Fleming and or
M. Night Shyamalan has made up.
And so he says things
like she's totally bubblishes
in the donka donka biepap
and you're like, that's not real slang and
everybody in the world doesn't act around it.
So you're like, I guess it is. Well, because it's the
90s and we need to have overwritten dialogue
at every turn because Kevin Williamson
did that once did that well once so that's how teenagers talk period that's we have the
the kevins and quentin to thank you guys uh but yeah no so we just got to be saying a bunch of
shit just just diarrhea falling out of our mouth with some pop culture references and so on and so
forth and like which also by the way calling a chick's boobs bubbles that's not like a compliment
bubble is obviously a reference to the
woman's ass
yeah that's the bubble you don't bubble
bubble butt bubble butt's been around forever
I believe bubble butt was coined in 1923
by a jazz musician
who was surrealism
who was shortly put to death right afterwards
you called it a what
to the gallows
so now it's like
hey let's Anna Pacquin comes
over gives her a makeover
because like for some reason
she's got to go to the dance not a dance
it's a party of Tulay Hills
House. It's a party in Dule Hills
House party. Oh yeah. That mansion
it's huge. You get lost in it.
You will get lost in it and there's going to be seeds
in it that don't make a whole lot of sense and just take the
film nowhere. It's shot in 15
different locations. You won't even know where you
are. So she gives her contacts,
tweezers her eyebrows and gives her a fucking haircut.
Give me a... I don't trust anybody
I don't trust anybody coming around my house.
me a haircut. Oh, we've never met? Yeah, okay, cut my hair.
No, thank you. Cut my hair, 14-year-old girl. Thank you very much. I'm sure he's
a great job. This is all during a scene where the, uh, whatever, the silos, is that his name?
Zach Silo? Silo. Siler. Siler. Not unlike heroes.
Man, I would love it if there was a scene where Freddie Prince Jr. and Paul Walker
got in an argument. And then Freddie Prince Jr. used his brain power to cut the top of
Paul Walker's head off and then he fucking
ate his brain. Except he went
Where is it? Where?
It would pop like a fucking balloon.
But
Lidai, that's a digression.
Don't worry about Paul Walker. He's fine.
Do not worry about Paul Walker.
I'm fine. Guys, do not worry
about Paul Walker. I'm fine.
FYI, do not worry about Paul Walker.
What? I'm fine.
So this is during another
scene.
This is
another scene where the Silers
have taken over
Rachel Lee Cook's house. So she's
upstairs cutting her hair
and Zach or Fraybren's
downstairs just hanging out of the living
room watching whatever he wants on the
bubble tube. After
she's asked, every time he comes in
contact with her, she asks him to
leave a few times and he just doesn't do it.
No, he won't go. He stands his ground.
And slowly
slowly in every
scene, every subsequent scene, we see him
kind of getting in more and more easily.
Yeah.
So, like, at one point, he's just walking down into the basement.
We don't know how he's gotten inside, and she's like, you're not wanted here.
No means no, Freddie.
And he's like, yes, I am.
You need the scene, by the way.
And this is, again, you know, totally underdeveloped side of things.
And you think about some of the father figures in the John Hughes movies, specifically pretty in pink.
But, like, you need the scene where Kevin Pollock's like, all right, listen, scumbag.
We're going to sit down and I'm going to talk for a little bit.
I'm going to do my Christopher Walken impression on you.
We're going to settle things right now.
You know what I mean?
Like you need that scene where he's like, what's your game?
I know that you're the big fucking dumb jock at school.
You're the class president.
My daughter is this introverted art student.
There's no way your pads have crossed legitimately.
She lost her mother.
God bless her soul.
Rest in peace.
She drowned in a pool accident.
She was killed by Matthew Lillard and Skeet Ulrich before the events of the movie.
no that's the that's the weird deleted side plot of the movie much like how coolio is deleted from daredevil it's the side plot and then leov shriver's the one who's in jail on those charges but he should not be absolutely not it makes sense it makes sense poor mother the mother as i understand it and Andrew was talking about it did she i believe she died in a pool accident yeah it was like a hepatitis C thing there wasn't enough chlorine in the pool she wound up you know yeah and that's how kevin pollick
got so into being
Dr. Poole
because you needed to make him clean.
I made a vow to my family
into myself
that no one would ever get
hepatitis C in a pool
I built ever again.
That's right.
Dr. Poole really stepped it up
after that.
I never thought a movie
could do with a little bit
of Kevin Pollock impersonations.
Yeah.
No,
the impression could have hurt.
Oh, no way.
You know what?
You don't think I'm intimidating?
What about my friend
Kevin James D. Kirk?
And he just starts
doing his thing.
You know?
If you don't get out of,
hear right now pal you're going to have to hear from my good friend alpuccino
that's how you intimidate freddy prince junior just start changing your voice at him
and it'll get all rattled like a dog and just run away when people when people audition for
roles and they say like write down you know the impersonations that you can do yeah especially
do they just cross out alpichito on everybody's yeah you know you're right they cross out alpichino
they cross out Christopher
Walken.
Just like,
anyone who's like,
yeah,
you know what?
I'm sure you can
fucking find your way
around a Christopher Walker.
Right.
Shocking.
You can do an Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Yeah.
Thanks.
I'm sure you could do
Jay Moore's Christopher Walkin.
Congratulations.
That's funny though
that we're talking about this
because just yesterday
we were watching
an old SNL sketch
at work and it's Bill Hader
doing that Alan Alder impression.
And I said,
that's how you know
Bill Hader is a fucking comic
genius because there's absolutely no
reason to work on and develop
an Alan Alda impression
but he has one and it's fucking
incredible right right right right
because it's like all right I'm going to add this to my
arsenal because I think it's funny
and nobody else is doing it exactly
exactly but let's stop talking about talented
actors
so we're at the bar we're at the party
and Jody Lino Keefe shows up
with Matthew Lillard who's just like
he's being puck and like
he's got a marker for autograph
He has his own dance scene for no reason.
He sure does.
The quote-unquote arc of Matthew Lillard's character
actually turns into a question mark
because I don't understand it.
I really don't get...
I don't know what he's doing this movie.
I don't know what he's doing.
I feel like this happens in another movie
that I can't pinpoint right now,
but maybe it's just the last time I watched this movie,
but the whole like older man comes and hangs out
at the high school and goes to the parties
and no one's really thinking anything of it,
but he's like someone's boy.
friend.
Well, that's, oh, I think you're thinking of my life story, which is when I was a junior.
Buckle up.
This is great.
When I was a junior in high school, one of the seniors, when they, we had senior projects.
It was like a fru-frew kind of private school.
So you had a senior project.
You could go do it.
Take the last month of school off to do that.
So, because you're all super seniors.
Or seniors, anyways, you have senioritis.
She went to Spain to do who knows what.
meets Rob Schneider in a dance club and gets married to him two years later.
But, flashback to while we're still in high school, I'm going to a prom party and who's sitting there in the kitchen but making copies Rob Schuyter.
And where you'd think for a moment, because this is like right around Deuce Bigelow and, you know, maybe pre the animal.
That magical window we had.
You'd think that that's like, oh, that's pretty cool.
We're going to have, like, this celebrity hanging out with us.
An S&L alum at this house party?
But he's, like, 42, and she's, like, 18.
And so we're, like, it's just, it's like when you're, you know, when your friend's, like, mom's boyfriend is hanging out of a party a little too late, like, she's got to sleep, but he's just having one more beer.
Luke, don't you want to go to sleep with mom?
No, I want to talk about the Patriots for a little longer with my friend here.
What's your name again?
Is it Derek?
I'm going to guess Derek.
You're Derek now.
That marriage ended into force.
Oh, weird.
At this dance, I keep calling it a dance to party.
Jody Lynn O'Keefe erotically assaults Rachel Lee Cook.
I thought I just fell ass backwards into a couple of scenes from wild things.
I had no idea what was going on.
It's really sexual.
Because she just goes up.
She's like, oh, you know, you're a dumb poor girl.
all isn't your dad by pool, man.
I'm like, yeah, I get your character.
And then she goes, oops.
And she, like, slowly, sensually pours her drink,
down racially cooks red dress.
And it's like, my mistake.
And it's like, wait, what are we talking about?
Also, by the way, I think it's worth pointing out
that it's not just like, oh, let's build a fucking solo cup of beer.
It's a glass of red wine.
Drip, drip, drip, drip, drip.
And I expected her to be like,
now what are we going to do about this?
Like, that's the next line.
I guess we have to clean you up.
Yeah, like, it's so fucking out of nowhere.
And Rachel Lee Cook's not even weirded out by it, though.
She's into it.
She's like, whatever.
Fuck it.
But you're going to humiliate somebody, throw your drink in their face.
Right.
Ha-ha!
You know, like, that's the way to do it.
Just a note for you teens out there.
If, you know, if some fucking poor girl shows up to your party, throw the drink in her face.
Just right into her face.
So Matthew Liller does a dance that he believes is going to seduce Jody Lin-O-Keefe, I think is the idea.
Or just, like, impress everybody at the party, and it's so awkward because he's
Rob Schneidering it up at this party.
Literally, no one gives a shit.
And he's, like, taking his fucking shirt off and, like, dancing around and, like,
grabbing his balls and all sorts of shit.
And nobody cares.
Like, this is now, like, if you were to be standing around at a party and puck from
the real world was, like, dancing.
And you'd be like, well, this dude is a washed up hack.
This is embarrassing.
I'm embarrassed for him.
I'm embarrassed for everyone at the party.
I wish this would stop
And that's what you're thinking when you're watching the movies
Man I wish this would stop
I just oh boy oh geez
I wish this would stop
And that's once again
Really bad filmmaking
Because it's like you're watching this movie
And you're supposed to look at that scene
And be like that's so like I can't wait to watch more of this
Because it's so stupid and embarrassing
It's funny
But it's just embarrassing for everybody
Oh absolutely
Totally
Now the movie actually has an engine
Because prom season starts
And it's like, oh, my God, somebody nominated her for prom queen, and now Jodelin O'Cube's really pissed off.
She gets broken up with by Matthew Lillard, by the way, because he's going off to do Real World Rule's Challenge.
Because they paid for that fucking MTV license, and they are going to use it.
Well, that's the thing.
Is this, we didn't see anything that said this was made by MTV.
It's a Miramax film, right?
It's a Miramax film.
But there's no, I mean, I'm just, I don't want to shame the MTV Movie Awards here.
Yeah.
But if you have that much of your product in a movie and you're awarding that film.
You have to recuse yourself.
You've got to take a step away.
Yeah.
Well, that's a weird thing, though.
So, like, if, let's say there was an amazing movie that came out, right?
An amazing movie.
Right.
But it's about the Academy Awards.
Can you nominate that movie for an Academy Award?
I don't think so.
It's kind of like the NBA, well, I don't know.
The NBA owns the New Orleans Hornets.
And that's really weird.
The Pelicans, you mean?
Yeah, get ready for those t-shirts.
I mean, it's the same thing.
It's just, it's, it's poor sportsmanship.
You know what I mean?
Like, it's just, you can't just, you can't just get away with it.
I don't think, yeah, no, I don't think that movie can win.
You have to, you just have to understand.
They can, Freddie Prince, Jr. and Rachel Lee Cook have nothing better to do.
They can show up and present an award.
Sure.
Fuck it.
They can host the damn show.
Right.
But they cannot win if half of your movie is,
MTV found footage.
Right. And I, you know, I don't know
where that line was drawn. I mean,
this is before MTV got into the movie
making racket. Before Joe's
apartment. Pre-Joe's apartment. No, I was going to say
this movie might be post-Joe's
apartment. Okay. Now that I think about it.
Because that was the first MTV movie.
I believe so it was. But, I mean, they
don't have anything to do with this other than they license
their name and everything. Like, it's Miramax.
Bob and Harvey are all over this fucking thing.
Oh, yeah. Making
hundreds of million.
Oh, this was a hit.
This was a hit.
It got over $100 million dollars and was made for $10 million.
Where did those $10 million go?
Oh, that's where it went.
Oh, interesting.
So Paul Walker's like, your chick's kind of hot.
I want a fucker.
And he's like, but, you know, this bet's going on that we have, I guess, which has, they don't define the terms.
The whole bet seems really weird because, like, I get a movie being like, oh, because it winds up being a punchline to the movie.
But when you're making a bet with somebody, you want to.
wouldn't hold off on making the terms until you know what i mean like they shake hands and everything
and then they're like terms to be decided later later date talk to you later uh but they they do
have a very sensual locker room oh i love this which is fantastic so they're they're playing a game
of footy and fucking freddie prince junior just blows it like it's a really hilarious like
the goalie comes like 15 feet away from the goal and falls over totally so there's just
no one left.
Open go.
And he just boots this thing and it goes out of bounds.
So Paul Walker's like,
you know, man, it's probably
because you haven't dropped a load
in a while. And he's like, excuse me?
He's like, yeah, bro. When was it last
time you got any, man?
I'll tell you what, man. Let's make another bet
right now. If I get laid before
you do, you know, blah, blah, blah.
If you get laid before I do, you can get the
pink slip to my car.
That's a fast in the future.
But yes, it's the way.
many pink slips so pink slips
they get in this huge fucking
fight and then like dulae hill
who's the only one who's still wearing a towel
gets it and i gotta handed to dula hill
because listen if two friends
get to fight in a locker room and i'm just there
with a towel on i'm just gonna hang
hang back let him play out just see what happens
because they're fully dressed paul walkers already
got his white cargo khakis on
you know he's fully dressed pretty friends
has his fucking horizontal striped sweater
on i'm gonna hang back but also but ricky
get in there because you got shorts on i'm not gonna get in there
I can't stop this fight.
I can't do it.
I can't do it.
Ricky, just do it.
Just do it with it.
Unless I had one of those towels that there's like an elastic waistband on and it's kind of like you're just wearing a skirt.
Yeah.
But it's not that because Dule Hill is one hand trying to push off Paul Walker.
And the other hand, making sure his cock doesn't fall out.
He does a great job.
He's a great multitasker.
That's why he's so good in the White House.
So basically the next thing is, obviously, it's the she's all that moment, which I've been talking about for three years.
which we really did this backwards
this is our first episode to set up the rest
you guys should go back to all the other episodes and just be like
for reference jump ahead four years
and it's you know she finds out she's a fucking bet
which you're using that PG-13 you're allowed one fuck in a movie
they use it well which is also but it's also poorly directed
like everything else in this movie because we're look
we're on the reaction shot of Freddy Prince Jr
when she says that.
Right.
We don't see her say
fucking bad.
Well, because it costs more.
Yeah.
It costs more to see her
actually say it.
It costs a little more money.
A little bit more money.
Because then it's not only
the hearing audiences
that'll understand.
It's the hearing impaired
lip reading audiences
that will also know she said fuck.
Right, exactly.
Right now, Kieran Culkin
would have no idea.
That's sister cursed.
His sister curse.
There is a
there is a great moment
where he tries to, like, redeem himself in her eyes.
And it's one of the most famous, Jesus, look at me.
One of the most well-remembered shitty scenes
of all the shitty scenes in this movie.
And that's where Kieran Culkin is rollerblading around the cafeteria
asking people if they'd, like, fresh ground pepper on things.
Because he's Zany, brother.
That's literally no other definition needed.
He's just ducking it up.
Yeah.
And so these two bullies, one of which is the Sherman
From the American Pied film franchise, they start bullying him a little.
And they're like, hey, man, we're going to make you eat this pizza with the shermanator's pubes all over it.
Because it's the 90s and we love pubic hair.
This is the thing, though.
This dude's just tearing pubes off himself.
He pulls a lot out.
There's a lot of pubs on this pizza.
Yeah.
That's not fun.
You know, if you're going in, like, you have to go in there already being like,
well, I'm going to make and fucking eat pew pizza, man.
Go in the bathroom with some scissors and clip off some pubes for your pew.
Andrew, you got to die for your art form.
You got to feel some pain, no pain, no game.
Listen, I'm all for a great prank, but I'm not going to tug a tuft of pubs off my body.
Oh, dude, totally going to make him pay for it.
Here we go.
Ha!
This is going to be really hilarious.
And so Freddie Prince Jr. steps in and just makes the two idiots eat the Pube pizza.
Which doesn't make any sense because he's the same height and weight as both of these dudes.
Scronier, even. Scronier. And he's like, dude, eat your pizza pubs.
And he's like, hooved. You're going to have to eat those.
You're going to have to hoover it, which he says.
Hoover.
Hoover it.
Hoover it. He says.
And like, for whatever reason, because he's the undisputed king of the school.
He's a God. He's a God. He's established.
He's a God. I guess he is a God. Yeah, that's true.
Hoover it.
Eat your fucking
pubes
Hoover those pups.
You know the only time
I'm eating a Pude pizza
without putting up a fight
if Henry Cavill Superman shows up
and he's like,
eat this Pube pizza.
And I'm like, well, you know what?
I got no chance, Superman.
Here it comes.
Eat this Pube pizza
or I'll break your neck
which everyone had a problem with me
because who fucking cares.
When that's over with,
when the Pube pizza is consumed
and he's like, you know,
stop fucking with this kid, you know,
then we have a problem.
these back and forth glances between
Freddie Prince Jr.
And Rachel Lee Cook, that's
like, they get like two or three a piece
before the scenes over with it.
It's amazing because there's nothing there.
It's like I'm just looking at pictures
of two different people in different locations.
It's cut so poorly. It doesn't even look
like they're making eye contact. It's amazing.
It's so bad.
So she saw that moment happens. She realizes
she's a fucking bet. She winds up saying, fuck you,
I'm going to go to the dance with Paul Walker anyway.
Because Paul Walker actually plays
is off really well. He's like, I know I'm a dick,
but I'm up front about it. Don't worry
about it. And she's like, yeah, I guess I won't worry
about you, Paul Walker. I'll go to dance with you.
He's sly. He's like, you made that bet
Freddie Prince Jr. And
Frey Prince Jr. is not like, with you.
Right? No, that's, I was just thinking about that. I think
that's like, you know, that's the
moment where I guess you're supposed to think that
he might be a good guy, because that's the easy
way out, right? Oh, yeah, bro. You were the other side of that bet. And then
she won't have fuck all to do with either of him.
But he keeps quiet about it, plays it cool for what?
Because he thinks that he can earn her back by, because at this point he realizes he does have actual feelings for her.
Right.
But why not take Paul Walker down?
Because it's a more vindictive thing to do and thus making him look even worse in her eyes.
I feel is what we're dealing with.
Instead, he's going to let her get railed by Paul Walker.
Don't worry about him, all right?
Do not worry about Paul Walker or Paul Walker's sex life.
So we're going to the prom.
Freddie Prince Jr. goes with his little sister, which is creepy as fuck.
He's dressed like Lestat the vampire, by the way.
I don't know what.
Now, wait a second.
Tom Cruise, Lestat or Stuart Townsend Lestat?
Some sort of weird hodgepodge.
Either way, it's a kind of leather tuxedo.
A real hybrid polo v-neck version of Lestat.
At least they don't go in and they, like, you know, get their picture taken together or something.
You know, they just go.
They do just go.
And, like, Dulay Hill's like, oh, hey.
Well, he had a choice between Little Kim and Gabriel Union, so he picked Gabriel Union.
Right.
He had a choice between the two black girls, and he's the one black guy, and that's how they made that decision.
I think Steve was more referencing the fact that he chose someone who's closer in high school age because Little Kim's about 49 years old.
She's 49 years old in this film.
It's unbelievable.
And she has, what, three?
lines. Usher Raymond
is also
in the film as the
as a sort of Samuel L. Jackson of do the right thing
of this movie.
So he's constantly
keeping us informed as the
narrator of who
gives the shit high school. He's telling us
how hot it is outside the
whole movie. Oh, Mookie, stay cool with that
pizza.
By the way, speaking of... Radio Rahim
put down that boom box.
Fat kid
Put down that pizza pie
Don't all be eating
Few pizzas
Part of the diversity
In this movie
I swear to God guys
The last thing we talk about
Before prom
Is the rap scene
Oh my God
The fucking shit
The titular rap of she's all that
So the thing we didn't
Just
To not get us even further away from prom
But also sort of
This leads us into talking about prom
And why this rap is related to prom
leading up to prom there's a campaign for prom queen
everybody knows it's going to be
Freddie Prince Jr. is going to be the king of the prom
it's done nobody has to worry about that
but the nominations for prom queen
are
Rachel Lee Cook and old
what's her face
Jody Lee O'Keefe
Mitt Romney
Georgia O'Kee
is he said Jody Jody
Joe Joe was a little busy
for she's all that and the student body
is just a fucking
can flutter with who's going to win.
And there's like, it's an out-and-out campaign that's going on here.
There's posters and slogans and rallies and raps.
And just these kids that should, I shouldn't say kids, they're each 30 years old.
It's a real, what are you doing on this campus situation?
And they're like, they each have like buttons of different prom queens.
And they're like, this is who I think's going to win the prom queen.
And they're just wrapping it up.
And everyone's just, why would these gentlemen.
be inspired to see which white girl's gonna win prom queen is my question there's no way for us to
convey to you their lyrical lyrical stylings without have you hear it well here we go
tell it this act for a krona fool on for the high school jock named brock on my mid click on the
beat box lean so we're at prom and you know now ushered raymond says to everybody
now everybody do the dance I taught you and the fat boy slim song comes on
fucking Rockefeller skank and Sean you find this on an IMDB that they
this scene was added after the fact just to run up the time the run time
they didn't they needed to get up over 90 minutes so they're like what what could
we do that would last four to seven minutes which I don't understand like making
it go a little over 90 minutes because it's not much longer than 90 minutes it's
95 minutes. So it's like
Woody Allen's been consistently
putting out movies for like 40
years that have all been about
85 to 92 minutes.
Which is totally fine. You can have
an 89 minute fucking teen movie.
Who gives a shit? Well, you know why? That's because
Woody Allen ever heard Fat Boy Slim.
That's the problem. No, I think it's because Woody Allen
has a Rockefeller skank song.
Woody Allen's movies
have a certain
quality.
Oh, yeah. So this movie was
lacking that. And so they put it a
fat boy slim choreographed dance
sequence. But I just look like, okay,
have it be, you want to have a dance
number fine, man. You know,
I've seen Gene Kelly break out into a dance
a thousand fucking times. And I don't
question it because it's just a dance number. But
when you have Usher on the microphone
going, now do the dance
I taught you, you're just, you're
fucking just putting the spotlight on
it and it's so, it makes
it so much more artificial than it's already
going to feel when you're having a group of
prom kids doing a choreograph dance.
You have to imagine the rehearsals that must have taken with.
What is that rehearsal like? How are you getting all those people to that convention
center to do this choreography? Everybody go to the gym, put on your gym clothes.
Okay, this is a jazz box. Okay, everybody do the jazz bath.
Jimmy? Okay, that's better. Okay, next move.
By the way, not put on your gym clothes. Put on what you're going to wear because you better
know how to dance in a fucking tuxedo, flipping around in prom heels.
It's a difficult thing
And it's so fucking phony and bogus
Like I get it
This is a bad movie
But this is a mistake added to a bad movie
That makes it so exponentially worse
Listen Lainey
You can wear open-toe shoes to this
But I'm telling you
You're gonna get stomped on by somebody's pumps
It's a big dance
It's a big number
My favorite little side part of this
Is when
The Fat Kid meets Anna Pac-Wan
And, like, this is when they, because they can't let this fat kid be gay.
They can't, we can't even pretend he's gay.
So he meets out of Paco and he's like, ooh, you're dreaming.
She's like, I go to a school with all boys.
You'll do.
All girls.
All girls.
And I kind of expected, like, then they cut away.
And it's, I was kind of expected like some weird bisoned men moment when he comes out, like he's covered in blood.
Like, she was so nice to me.
I couldn't help myself.
Which would have been a great ending to this movie.
Oh, God.
What a fucking.
twist. That's probably what
Sharmelon pitch.
Instead, what we have
is him figuring something
out and running through
the prom and playing this joke
not once, not twice, probably
three times where he runs up
and they're like, I forget what his name is.
Hey, pig farmer.
Pig farmer. Those overalls that
he did not wear a prom, surprisingly.
What's that pig farmer? I just
I just
Lainey.
Prom
Hybrid
Polo
Fidec
Horzotrape
Ripped
Here by the way
is to
humiliate this character
even further
His character's name
is Jesse Jackson
By the way
That's a funny little joke
But so when we see him
First at prom
He's hoovering
A hefty sized
Bowl of feel in each shrimp
He is fucking going through it
So then we cut to a bathroom scene
Where Paul Walker's like
I'm going to fuck
this girl, it's going to be great. I already have my
hotel room key. It's fucking pink.
It's going to be perfect. And then they all
walk out like, whatever, dude. Nobody gives a fuck.
And then that we hold on the
shot of the bathroom and the
stall door opens and of course the
fat guy's taking a big peel in each
shit.
It's just so humiliating
and degrading for this actor.
And at that moment, for a
second, you're like, oh shit.
He knows
that Paul Walker has these
plans. Paul Walker's
in trouble. But don't
worry. Paul Walker's can be okay.
Do not worry about Paul. He'll be fine.
Well, the funny thing is, the big surprise
that he's running around to tell anyone
who will listen is that
some high school kid wants to have sex
with his prom day. What?
And he has intentions on
her. Like, of course. It's not like he
started shaking a pill bottle.
Exactly. And if she doesn't say yes,
yeah, like, oh, I don't
care if I get a yes or no. He's just like,
I got this hotel room.
I'm going to take her there and hopefully we'll have sex because I'm 17 years old and that's what people do on prom.
Because I'm 35 years old and I'm Paul Walker.
No, but it's like that's another, I wonder if that's kind of like a producer if like a lot of people have their, you know, finger in that pot or try and figure it out because it's like, can you, can Paul Walker say like, I'm going to have sex with her no matter what?
can he say that or at that point in Paul Walker's fame is somebody like no he can't say that he has to say something it has to be insinuating yeah because they vague i mean they go on we'll get there to basically say like he is forcing himself upon her yeah but they can't see that we don't see it but we learn that that happened and to me for the story's sake it would have been nice to be like have that black and white moment where we're like oh Paul walker's a horrific you know bad guy bad guy like
Like, he's just a high school dick, but that doesn't make him a rapist.
No, he's not any more of a dick than Freddie Prince Jr. is at the beginning of this movie.
He's probably less of a dick than Frey Prince, Jr., for the majority of this movie.
So, long story short, this guy finally wheezes out the information that, you know, this is going to happen.
And Joe Lino Keefe wins prom queen.
Yeah, they're both king and queen.
It doesn't matter.
She talks shit into the microphone during her speech.
And then, like, Paul, Freddie Priths Jr., is like, I don't even care, and he walks away, which is great.
So he's like driving through, you know, Los Angeles or wherever they live.
Because she leaves on her own volition with Paul Walker.
Yeah, they just go.
He's like, you want to go?
You want to head to this hotel room?
And she's like, yeah, it's prom night.
And so he's driving around just calling hotels being like, you know, do you have a so-and-so registered here in room 409?
No, next hotel.
And every time the guy says, I legally can't give you that information.
Good night.
I'm sorry.
Who are you?
Why would I tell you this?
And then so he can't find her
And then we just cut back to Kevin Pollock in a bathrobe
And she walks in
And he's like, oh, do you have a good time at prom?
And so then he's like, well, you got a friend here
And then like we pan over a little bit
And Freddie Prince has come here to apologize
Or whatever.
We don't see the scene where he apologized to Kevin Pollock
Which you know happened because Kevin Pollack
Let's him in the fucking house
He had to have.
And Rory or Kieran Culkin's cool with it
He's like, sorry about calling you an asshole before
Whatever it was.
And yeah,
And we find out that apparently, you know, she, you, Paul Walker was sexually aggressive.
He wouldn't take a no for an answer.
So she had to play blow a foghorn in his ear.
And it's like, all right.
She said she's been carrying around.
And this is what, I mean, I don't know.
Maybe that's a thing.
I'm pretty sure it's always a can of mace.
Yeah.
It's just kind of hilarious to have a big foghorn.
Foghorn.
She's like, well, I've been carrying this around.
I'm like, all right.
She's like, oh, I just blew it in his ear.
But it's like, if someone's like up in your business and whatnot.
It's not the best prevention.
If you blow a foghorn, you're blowing that foghorn into your ear too, pal.
Exactly. It's a tough situation.
And I mean, that's an...
I guess you could also possibly mace yourself.
I'm not asking to see an almost rapes.
No, I am. You know why?
Because it's an active scene where something happens and people aren't just talking about stuff.
Freddie Prince Jr. breaks it up, beats up Paul Walker.
It's the whole fucking Crispin Glover back to the future.
Hey, you get your damn hands off her.
Let's make that end of the movie.
That's a good enough end of this movie.
Give me something to understand.
Man, give me a side to root for.
Just in the last five minutes,
make me root for Fray Prince Jr.
And they don't.
Instead, I just wishy-washily see the movie end.
He, like, sort of apologizes.
They kiss.
Kevin Pollock turns on some red pool lights that he's installed
and gives a thumbs up from a window.
And she's like, hey, oh, what were the terms of this bet?
Oh, right, right.
And we find out what the terms of the bed are,
which are impossible, which is,
Furnibus Jr. winds up going to graduation naked with a soccer ball over his dick.
No problem.
Nope.
No teacher's going to stop me on the way in.
And then on his way up to the stage, tosses this crotch soccer ball in Rachel Lee Cook's face.
And she just like kind of smells it and laughs.
It's weird.
It's weird.
She's like, this is my soccer ball now.
It's really creepy.
The one thing I like.
The one thing I like is.
that they set up like the cliffhanger for the sequel which is as they're panning through everybody
they come across mouth-breathing paul walker and paul walker hasn't heard his name called because of
the foghorn that went off in his ear right the air horn and you realize that there's a like a road
trip kieran kulkin paul walker movie in the makings where kieran kalkin though younger and a total dweeb teaches
Paul Walker how to live life
hearing impaired. My God, I would love that
movie. I can't even tell you how much
I'd love that movie.
That would be a car ride where two people
would have literally nothing to talk.
It might as well
be a silent film.
Would anybody recommend she's all that?
I would not.
I kind of remember it more fondly
than I thought it was.
It's a movie that needs to be funnier.
I'm not saying like, oh, the jokes fall
flat. There just aren't enough
jokes. This is a romantic comedy. It's in the
If you're trying to be a John Hughes movie, you know what a John Hughes movie is? Fucking funny.
Consistently hilarious throughout. Whether you like it or not, it's a funny movie that has
jokes that's at least trying to be funny. And it's just not that.
And yeah, it's just the cast is
to see the last 60 minutes to figure out why I didn't recommend this movie.
Well, and I would say, I wouldn't, I mean, I think it's just a bad,
badly executed film. And that's exactly what you just said. The only reason that you should
really see this movie is if you're
a huge Rachel Lee Cook fan
because this is your best bet.
You're not going to go see antitrust.
Or maybe you are.
I don't know. Maybe you'll see it here eventually.
We've yet to get
Ryan Phillipie on the show in any capacity
so I think that might be it. I would not
recommend it either. Although I still stand by
I think that this movie is better than boys
and girls.
Yes. Because while
this movie is just is stupid
throughout
and it's got like some of that like chatty chat 90s dialogue it's not trying to be
super like woody allen clever which is what boys and girls is and that's what's more infuriating
about that movie you can watch this movie and just be like god this is fucking stupid right it's
nice to know that this is a shitty movie this this is unabashedly a shitty movie so you watch it
you're not being fooled you're not get it into it at a certain point and getting disappointed
you're just not really paying attention you're not paying attention you're not
attention. And, you know, again, even with all the superfluous
dance numbers added, it's 95 minutes, you're in and out, you're not
dragging around for two hours. Yep. It's watchable. It is
watchable. It's just nothing I'd recommend you watch. No, no, no, no. I
absolutely not. Don't watch boys and girls either. I mean, watch
neither of these movies. Watch can't hardly wait or John Hughes
movies. Yeah, that's what you're going to do. Or scream. Or most
definitely watch scream. At the end of every episode, I just say, just
watch scream instead. Just because I could always watch
movie. So, Sean, we have you here today, not just to have a bunch of laughs at the expensive
Freddie Prince Jr., but also to plug a project that we as members of the private cabin
collective have been working on. And we thought, you know, it would be ridiculous if Steve and I were
the ones to be plugging the thing because we're on the show, you know, every week. So
why don't you, why don't you explain to the audience? What the hell you're doing in my living
room? All right. So, yeah, I mean, we've all been working together.
for a long time for like a decade or whatever it is now and and doing all different sorts of
comedic things and one of the things that some folks listening might know is that we did a lot of
sketch videos under under the name private cabin and we moved on this past year to to work on a
feature-length film that's sort of like a dark comedy kind of indie film that's really kind of
autobiographical and it reflects upon where we're all at in our lives and being
you know, what friendship is at pushing 30 and all these things.
And so we started working on this film over the winter
and put together what turned out,
I mean, to be a really strong film called We Are Strangers.
And right now, we are kind of putting the finishing touches on it
and starting to look to get it into film festivals.
And we've gotten really encouraging words from people that we trust,
that we like,
lot of ways our mentors. So we
know to believe and to push this film.
And we know that it's sort of funny.
In some ways exactly how this
show is funny, but also in
very different ways as well. I mean, it has
some dramatic resonance to it and also
has a certain amount of sort of improvisation
that we've all kind of studied with
different places like the Magnet Theater and Upright Citizens
Brigade. It's certainly not we hate
movies the movie. No.
I think we should get that. It's not
as a whack-tacky
as this show. I'm now imagining
a podcast where Paul Walker
and Freddie Prince Jr. make fun of our movie.
God bless him. I would love it. It's only fair.
It is only fair. First of all, you know, what's good for the goose is good for the gander.
But also, there's like a 30% chance that means Sarah Michelle sees our movie.
If Freddy Prince Jr. is going to watch it, you know,
that house might only have one Blu-ray player in it.
It's the closest I'll get to going to Sarah Michelle Geller's house, so sure.
Continue.
So the film, obviously, the film stars a bunch of us, including Andrew and Steve here.
And it's just sort of this wonderful kind of story that follows the character of Steve throughout the ends of relationship, but the creation of a few new friendships.
We're looking to sort of start to promote the film.
We have an Indiegogo account that's starting up, that's raising finishing funds for color correction and audio.
mastering and mixing, as well as festival submissions, because we are in Andrew's living room
right now, and we certainly don't have a lot of money. And we're also just looking to get
the word out there. And we know that a lot of folks, a lot of the We Hate Movies listeners
are these really devoted and excited fans. So we thought, what better way to talk about the film
than to this audience that already is enjoying your guy's humor already.
The easiest way to find out information about it is just go to the website for the film, which is we are strangers movie.com.
And, you know, the trailer will be up there, information about the film.
And, you know, we'll link to the Indigo go from there.
And there's, you know, we've made a video for the Indiegogo, which will be up explaining more about the project and so on.
Right.
So, I mean, it's always, it's not a new thing to go to a well for your We Hate Movies episode and have to listen to those folks talking.
about a side project that they're doing so here we are kind of doing that but but we're
only doing it because we know that this is a film totally worth sharing so if you're interested
please do check it out uh you you will be rewarded and satisfied and if you like it pass it long
