Hello, I'm Andrew Jupin, Stephen Siddak, Chris Cabin, and we hate movies.
Hello everyone. Welcome to the program. Thank you for tuning in. If you are new to the show, welcome. Take a seat. Take your coat off. Make yourself comfortable because you're about to get really uncomfortable with 1984s Blame it on Rio, directed by Hollywood legends Stanley Donan of singing in the rain, bedazzled charade.
I mean, it would have to be his last, like, feature filming. It has to be. Yes, this is, this is the period you want on your career. I don't think I've ever done this.
this, but if this is your first time
with us, stop it.
Go listen to like maybe Batman
Forever. That's a fun one. Everyone's
having a good time in that and then come back to this.
Yeah, Steve, Steve, you have a point. This is
advanced level we hate movies
right now. It absolutely is.
Because this is the one you're going to have to take
a shower afterwards. Yeah, yeah. So
I hope you've been with us for a while.
Oh, those are good guys. Those guys have a lot
of fun. A couple of good-natured fellas
watching some cheesy movies.
not ones that rip your heart out and dampen your soul
Okay, you've had your fair shake
To turn it off
Here we go
Steve
What is this movie about?
It's about two old friends
One is Michael Kane
Welcome back to the show, sir
Get rid of some bad impressions
Thank you
The other is Joseph Bologna
Who
Hi
Not Al Pacino
Joseph Pellodia, he's in a bunch of stuff.
Most famously for me, for no good reason.
He was on the Married with Children's Spinoff, Top of the Heap, as Matt LaBlanc's father.
I think you were the only guy that watched Top of the Heat.
I watched a ton of it.
I mean, like, a bunch of stuff.
He's like an Italian-American character actor.
He's a funny guy.
They're both like old friends, and they have this trip to Rio together that they're about to embark on.
And for some reason, Michael Cain's wife decides, who was played by Valerie Harper,
a.k.a. Rota decides she doesn't want to go on. She's going to go on a separate vacation and think
about some stuff because of their marriage. And they bring their daughters along. One is played by
Demi Moore. That's Michael Kane's daughter. And then the other one is kind of relatively unknown
Michelle Johnson, a bombshell, if you will. She plays Joe Bologna's daughter. So it's just
dad to dad, daughter and daughter. Let's take a trip to Rio and turn our back on society. And it's
mores. Turn our back on society. Turn her back on tradition, on family, on friends.
Friendship. Friendship.
Just anything not associated with chaos whatsoever?
Let's turn our back on all of it.
I mean, turning your back on it, maybe, but this is like pissing in the face of whatever you once knew as society.
Doing something with a cock, Chris.
I'll tell you that.
The gang in Crash, the J.G. Ballard, David Cronenberg, joint were a bit more, would be a little upset about this?
Watching it with like Elias Cateas' character, he'd be like, ew.
Oh, wait, they're doing what?
Oh, Holly Hunter, get over here.
Get all that glass off you.
Get over here and look at this.
They're doing that.
And it's not in Maryland Monroe's car?
So, here we are.
We're on vacation.
We're in Rio, the sexiest city in the world.
The most kidnappiest place that ever was.
It's where you want to go in the 1980s and just let your teenage daughters
run wild on a beach topless.
Can we just listen to the opening theme and the theme of Blame
on Rio? Because it's just rattling around to my brain
and I want everyone to get it. Yeah, yeah. Because
you know, if we have to handle it this
way, others should know, like,
where we're at. So you hear this
about a dozen times in this
movie.
What if we both went a little bit crazy?
Blame it on Rio.
What if my heart's got a little bit hazy?
Blame it on Rio.
What if we act like fools, bro?
a few rules
What do we care?
Blended on the own
So there it is.
That's just Inya
nestled in between your brain.
It's not going anywhere.
It's that and fake Michael Jackson songs.
They keep on saying that you're doing something right,
which is really the wrong tone for this movie.
Just talk about the worst choice for song lyrics.
Irony. So Joe Bologna is going through a bad divorce and he's just your standard. They're both incredibly rich. I don't know what. Joe Bologna owns a business. I think Michael Cain owns a business maybe or they work together. They're in business together. Yeah, they're in business. It's some sort of factory because Joe Bologna hilariously has an office like in the center of this work floor. Like he's got he's got a bunch of like soundproof walls around him like when you see a drummer on Saturday Night Live and they're just in that like glass case or whatever.
whatever. Man, that, I mean, that must
been a really long talk with the architect.
Look, I know I should be
like overseeing things literally.
As the boss, I should be above my
workers. But you know what? Fuck it.
On the floor with him. I'm in the business here.
I need to be on the killing floor.
And, you know, he's going through
a bad divorce. Michael Kane is totally shocked.
Like, he's kind of admitted that,
you know, things are dead between him
and his wife, but he's really shocked that she doesn't want to go
on vacation. But also, we're treated
to kind of when Harry
Sallie-esque, let's talk with the camera in a blank room thing.
Yes, Michael Cain is the Greek chorus, as is the other lady there, Michelle Johnson.
The two of them chiming in when necessary to fill us in on some of the details of this story.
To prepare us.
And like, I didn't know what this movie was.
And I'm like, okay, it's like a funny sex farce.
It's like maybe he looks at this girl.
like she's scantily clad throughout this entire movie and I'm like obviously it's about her liking him because Michelle Johnson's like I always had a crush on Uncle Matthew and it's just uncomfortable yeah well you know very early in the movie oh you get the gist you get the gist of what's going on so like Michael Kane's talking and he's like oh my marriage was in shambos it was I was married to a TV star and she ate in my guts and we
we were supposed to go on this vacation.
She decides she's going to go to club med.
I'm supposed to go to Rio with the kid.
Well, I'll get back at you, I will.
Oh, Will here.
This will teach you, Rota.
This will teach you Rota to change your vacation plans on Michael Cain.
This will teach you.
A lot of the last minute like that.
Oh, you think this marriage is dead now.
Oh, you think this is a corpse.
You wait and see who I do to this marriage by the time you get back.
Let me tell you something.
You think this marriage is ruined now.
I'm gonna blow it to fuck up
Let me just tell you honey
You enjoy that poo
And you enjoy those drinks
Because you're about to get the fucking blown world
How come nobody says
I'm going to club med anymore
Did they go out of business
I feel they must have
That was the place right now
It's everybody's going to sandals
Yeah I'm going to sandals
Sandals
I don't think anybody says I'm going to sandals
I think they're like
I'm going to sandals
I think you should be saying
the place you're going to
Not just the, because that's a, oh, I'm going to the Hilton.
Where?
Oh, you know, the Hilton.
Down the road.
We're still up for the night.
Oh, okay.
You just, I don't, see, and I've, I've never been to Club Med, never booked a trip, never
made plans, but I don't know if they're out of business or what, but in, in, in entertainment,
it used to be like, man, where are you going on vacation?
I've got to go to Club Med for a while.
Yeah.
Oh, all right.
Club Med, that sounds pretty good.
Early 90s comedies, they were dropping that in.
Oh, where are you going to go, club med.
Yeah, it depended on, like, like, the, like, the class of people.
People, like, married with children, oh, where are you going to go pick, club med?
Like, really, like, sarcastic or the, you know, the richer folks, like, oh, we're just going to club med.
The Golden Girls, oh, we're going to Club Med.
That's my Golden Girls' oppression.
Ma, we're going to Club Med.
I'm bringing Sam.
Why would you go to Clubbed?
That's a Selgeti.
Back in Naples, we would always want to go to the watering hole.
Man, she would never.
shut the flying fuck up
about the old country on that show
like she moved there
moved from there when she was like 30
there was this vague idea that she was connected
like at the end of every episode
somebody is coming up
like some Sicilian guys like
what do we do? Well take care of
we gotta take care of well I guess our friend
won't be around for Christmas and she's like
pruning a tree and he knows what's going on
there was definitely a few mentions of the old
country where she was just like oh the old country
she was talking about it all the time
their thing.
Anyway, this movie is
they go to what I'd like to
effectively call the parrot house.
It's the craziest
living accommodations I've ever
seen. It's
all greenery. There's
a couple of parrots in the yard. I'm like, wow, that's
how do you get those parrots there? And then
they go inside and there's more
parrots. There's so many parrots.
They go left. There's more parrots.
There's parrots in the bedroom. There's a chican
over there. Live birds.
all over this place.
It's like someone just put a roof over the jungle.
Exactly. And there's like bad
wallpaper of like jungle
scenes and it's really hard to make heads of tales of
what's going on in one scene to the next
because of like, are they outside or the inside?
Well, you have to do that to make the monkey comfortable.
There is a monkey in the house in the first scene.
But I don't know what happens to that monkey.
There's also a peacock that's just constantly laying eggs
and that's a gag throughout this movie.
Like, it lays an egg and she's like,
Ew, it's warm.
It's like juggling.
I mean, it's a little, like, fucking wink at you being like,
oh, fertility, right?
You don't think anybody in this house is going to fuck, do you?
Man, we are just doing all we can to not talk about what this movie's about, huh?
It's gross.
Because you think you get the idea.
And, like, usually in a movie about an older man and a younger woman,
like, especially not legal age of 17,
which is kind of iffy, ify, depending on the state.
Usually it's the dance around it, right?
It's like, will, they, won't they?
She likes him.
She keeps, like, trying to come on to him.
And he's like, oh, my goodness.
And, like, it's, like, really uncomfortable.
That doesn't happen in this movie.
Nope.
They have raunchy sex multiple times.
This girl is naked throughout the entire movie.
And she wasn't even fucking legal when they made it.
Nope.
Her awesome parents had to sign consent forms for her to be nude.
full frontally nude in this movie.
So they decide we're going to make the most of this trip.
Rota decided to go to clubbed,
and that's Rota's decision. But we're here.
And then Joseph Bologna, by the way,
because he's in the middle of this divorce.
He is just Johnny on the town
and he's ready to get some tail wherever he can find it.
Well, that's the thing. It's not like, hey, let's go to Rio.
We'll see the beach. This is a sex vacation for everybody.
Oh, yeah. It's not like, oh, let's see what the ruins.
Let's go to the fucking, you know, let's go down to San Pao.
I'll see what's going on over that.
No, no, no.
a sex vacation. A real fucation.
It's a fuccation, man. And the dads are like talking, like, they're driving from the airport and they're like, I just, I did a steering real motion.
I appreciate it. I know what it's what I look like.
They're driving from the airport and Joseph Bologna and Michael Cain are like, so you girls are going to meet a bunch of pretty guys down here or what? You're going to be playing with the boys? And so it's like, listen, Joe Bologna, when you find out that your daughter, you know, has been sleeping around, you don't know who.
necessarily. Why are you shocked? Like, he's so upset, but it's like, you've been encouraging this
behavior from Jump Street. It's all like, oh, you guys go off on your own. I want to go off
on my own. You fuck, I fuck, everybody fucks. We're going to be having a great vacation. Everybody's
just going to be fucking and suck until the sun comes up. Well, apparently the 17-year-old
supposed to tell him every time he, every time she fuck somebody. This guy's the dumbest father
in the world. Like, so he starts having suspicions that his daughter might be sleeping with
someone. And he says to Michael Kane that they made a passion.
act that right before she was ready to have sex with a boy, she would tell, she'd call
him and tell him right away like, hey, it's happening. We got one. And Michael Cain's like,
well, you're clearly the dumbest father that's ever lived. Who's going to call and tell you that?
Look, we're 12 years away from cell phones, right? So that's out the window. Let's just imagine that
they're in a room where it has a phone. Are you going to be in a room that?
is she gonna stop is this guy gonna stop i mean what what the fuck are you stupid are you fucking
are you fucking mad i mean take it for me the guy isn't going to stop that guy's not gonna stop
no way no how so we're in the parrot house everybody's just getting comfortable there's a snooty
made that just does not like michael can and i'm like i get it it's a kind of an open door closed
door farce maybe it's gonna be like they keep almost having sex and like you know she's in scantily
clad outfits and a bunch of misunderstandings they're gonna have
happen yeah exactly like like she opens the door and it's like her eyes bug out it's really
daffy duck and whatnot i imagine it's something like he like she's in his bedroom and they're on
the balcony and like she has him up on a corner like she's like why don't we do this and he just like
knocks himself over the balcony something like that falls into a big thing of bushes
that's a fun movie for everybody i could actually almost take my kids to that movie almost sort
But, you know, unfortunately, all my dreams about a fun, light sex romp, like Hamburger the Motion Picture, which I watched recently, are totally shattered at the point where this girl, in her Greek, Greek chorus monologue here, tells the world that she knew she was ready for love right about the time she got to move down to her smaller retainer.
It's chilling.
It's really, it's bone chilling.
It's just playing up your spine, because it just stays.
Step by step by step.
Because she keeps calling her father, daddy, and him Uncle Matthew.
Daddy, Uncle Matthew.
I don't know.
Demi Moore isn't doing the daddy stuff because she hates her dad's fucking fat guts in this movie.
Oh, absolutely.
Before and after all the romping.
And during.
Before during and after the romping.
She will always hate this man.
Oh, it's a full steam brood.
It's a full going on brood.
But she's actually the best character in the film because, uh,
She says the lease, she does the lease, and she doesn't fuck anyone who's much, much older than her.
And she doesn't try to dance around, like, what she's doing.
Like, that's the real problem here is that Michael Kane never just is like, yeah, I'm fucking a kid.
What of it?
It's all right, right?
I'm fucking it's fine.
So you think it's this light sex romp, and then they go to the beach, and this girl is totally naked, except for her undergarment down there.
But you're talking about a bikini bottom.
A bikini bottom.
I'm just trying not to be fucking disgusting.
Because you know what's coming up.
I mean, this movie's fucking disgusting.
It's disgusting.
I'm trying to not.
I'm trying to, like, it's, you're in a room and the water keeps waiting in.
Now you're on the dresser and you're just trying to stay dry.
It's just not going to happen.
I mean, you're calling it water.
We're all going to fall into this puddle eventually.
And, you know, she's totally naked and Demi Moore because she wants to be a legitimate actress at this point.
I mean, she's a legitimate actress to this day, is doing the hair over the breast thing.
But it's like, it's real.
Blame it on Rio, baby.
This is what happens.
And like, Joe Bologna is like, oh, look at my beautiful girl over there.
Oh, look at those things.
Oh, my goodness gracious.
And she's like, hey, daddy.
And they give a hug and she's naked.
And it's, at this point, I'm like, oh, no.
Oh, no.
And this is just the tip of the iceberg.
So it's a big party.
And it turns out that someone's getting.
married on the beach.
So they go to kind of like,
you know,
give congratulations and whatnot.
So Michael Cain and,
and this woman walking,
what's the character's name?
Jennifer.
Jennifer.
So,
you know,
Matthew,
Uncle Matthew,
uncy Matt and Jennifer
walk into this like
little bridal area and whatnot.
And,
you know,
he's like,
well,
can I kiss the bride?
I sure do love kissing
young girls I do.
And this lady's like,
if anyone should be getting kisses,
it's me because I'm the one
who facilitated.
this marriage and blah blah blah
crazy black magic prayers which kind of comes back
but not really yeah there's a little bit of
a hoodoo voodoo going on in here
so we get at Bernice 2 kind of magic
a little bit of witchcraft going on
so uh so then this lady's like
well now like it's part of the celebration
we all have to go dance in the ocean
and I'm going to light this wedding dress on fire
and take it out there and put it out and
that's what we're going to do so here we go
everybody into the pool speaking of burning things down
I got a pretty reasonable relationship
with my best friend and business upon it.
So they all go into the water, except for Joe Bologna.
He's out, he's getting some other tails somewhere.
He's there to fuck.
And he's like, come on, Michael King, Sam.
And he's like, no, no, I can't my wife.
Oh, I'm just such, I'm in such a state over my wife.
I cannot believe it.
What a stupid cow.
Hey, look at all these age-appropriate women.
I'll go with one of them.
Well, he's also going on and on about, oh, my fucking divorce.
Oh, my God.
Now I've got to fill out all this paperwork.
She's taking half of everything.
It's like, shut up.
I know how.
divorce works movie. I mean, if you've seen
Raw, just don't listen to Joe
Blona's dialogue here. You just mute
it every time. I love to mute a bunch of
this fucking dialogue. I'd love to mute all
of Jennifer's creepy dialogue.
So they get out into the
water and, you know, this
priestess is burning this wedding
dress and everything. This couple who looks
totally unhappy is like standing watching this
huge fun hip party happen in the
water. And all of a sudden
Jennifer just goes up to Uncle Matt
and just starts
making out hard with this dude and you know what
Michael Cain's okay with it he's he's fine he's like oh it's in the moment he's like
oh wait a oh right and Demi Moore is just like disappointed she looks she sees it happen
and she's like she's right there too yeah yeah hey Jennifer no less than 12 feet away from
this yeah why don't you save that shit for when we get back to the parrot house okay when
we can be behind closed doors.
A nice stiff, like, not push, but just, like, away.
Yeah, just push a little, there you go.
Get away.
No, nope, we can't do that.
And that's when it happens.
They go, they find a quiet area to themselves.
She gets down on her knees.
She gets down on it.
Takes a retainer out.
That's out.
And she says, make love to me.
But here's the thing, she's like, make love to me,
no, no, okay, it's disgusting.
my God, my old friend Joe Bologna, what will he think?
What, what's going to happen?
Oh, my God, I'm in such a flustered state.
And she gets down on his, and then takes out her retainer.
He's like, oh, well, it's on, baby.
It's just, that's the thing that drives you over the edge, you fucking creep.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, look at that.
Out it goes.
In I come.
And he specifically says Joe Bologna later, because spoiler he finds out,
he's like, well, I'm not some deviant standing in a school yard.
I'm not.
Like, of course you are.
Like, just because you're in Rio, you're just a...
Well, yeah, you don't have to go to the schoolyard to make this happen, Michael Cain.
You just take this girl on an extravagant Brazilian vacation.
Blime it on Rio.
My defense here is that I'm blaming it on Rio.
By the way, she goes over...
They have sex, like, amongst the rocks on this beach.
Yeah, you can't park a boat over there.
She runs away.
You do not follow her.
No.
You just stand there in the ocean.
Back to the parrot house.
Dude, go back to the parrot house, jerk off.
You saved your life.
Hang out with your parent friends, talk to them.
See if you can fuck that maid, honestly.
You just, yeah, fucking anybody other than your best friend's daughter who's 17 with a retainer.
There's a bunch of eligible, like, Kappa Weta Instructor.
It's just hanging out.
Just fucking go away.
She'll find one of them.
It'll be over.
I mean, look, here's the thing.
I know nothing about Rio de Janeiro other than from what this movie tells me,
which is that it's the most fuckable city on the planet.
is what this movie has told me
at least it was in 1984
go out do anything
don't follow her into this
dune and get it on
I feel like even fucking
just like the mayor of Rio de Janeiro
watch this movie oh no
oh we're so fucked now we'll never
get the World Cup in the Olympics
we need to change our ways
I also would love
I mean thankfully this movie is forgotten
but I would love a situation where
you're at the video store
and it's like you've got your kids like
oh we've seen Rio
what's the next one calls it Rio too
is it blame it on Rio I don't know
let's blame on Rio
there's a parrot on the cover
fine there's a bunch of parents on the cover
none of them talk but they might as well
hiding people's genitalia
so they have sex on the beach
and you know we kind of fade out
and I'm like oh thankfully I mean thankfully
a fade out but it's a bit of a tease fade out
you know why because it just transitions into
him sleeping on her naked
ass. It's so
weird, man. And he's
got his Michael Cain granny glasses
on. And it's the 1980s
granny haircut. So it's like
this lady, this 17
year old lady girl wanted to
blow her grandmother.
She's as old as his perm.
It's just
like so disgusting.
And he went and like
he's got some friends in the area and they're like,
oh hey Michael Caine he's like putting sand all over himself like pretending and going like 10 yards away
and like having this conversation with a huge erection under the sand which let ah man how about this
sand in your ureth no don't do it don't get out of here get out of here being naked on a beach ever in
who wants sand under the hood ew no ha ha ha nobody does that's why it's horrible that's why
Beach sex is impossible and this movie's awful.
And I would like to stop for a second and remind you at the beginning when we said you shouldn't listen to this as your first episode.
This is not we hate movies for beginners.
It's not light. It's definitely not light.
This is after dark.
If we could change this, maybe change the side to like a neon side against a brick wall for one episode.
This would be it.
Or just like take off our usual theme song and I put like a good like soft like, oh, girl from Ipanema.
Oh, hey.
Welcome to We Hate Movies.
We hate movies.
We don't hate expressions of sexuality.
Yeah, that could work.
Sure, sure.

I wasn't exactly rolling a dough.

I just kind of drifted around without direction and didn't know where to voice that.
Then I started to get my crap together one piece at a time and the last piece,
which didn't come until my early 30s, was therapy.
And man, I wish it came along sooner.

but you're like you know what
blame it on Rio
blame it on Rio I will blame that one time
on Rio maybe look you hit you slipped
up Roto was at club med
you slipped up and fucked a kid
whose parents are going through a divorce
like what's the fuck
Of course they're going through it.
So he's waking up.
The sun has risen again.
It's a new day.
It's a new day.
We're in Rio.
Find all sorts of other things to blame on this fine city.
He's having a shave.
And she runs into this bathroom.
Hello, future husband.
Hello, Uncle Matthew.
And he's like, he's so terrified.
He cuts his cheek wide open.
And she's like, let me kiss it.
Let me kiss it.
make it better let me drink your blood so she's like all over him and he's like oh fuck
what this ain't good and it's such a weird child molester thing to say to somebody just turn
around like she's having all sorts of crazy feelings because obviously you're the fucking
adult here and you weren't an adult last night and she's like I love you I want to be with
you for the rest of my life I can't wait to get married and he's like well oh that was a dream last
night it was just a crazy dream we're gonna forget we're gonna lock away right and we're never
gonna tell our parents and i'm like are you fucking kidding me are you fucking kidding me you're trying
to convince you i mean more or less an adult that she you were just asleep yeah and then she's
like wait so you're saying that we essentially had the same dream he's like yeah it's crazy right
blame that on rio everyone has a shared dream space like the matrix right it's not like you take a
Blue pill or a red pill.
We both got on to Nebuchadnezzar, and that was it.
So they're having one of several outdoor breakfasts where there's just monkeys and birds
shitting and pissing everywhere.
I mean, it's an orgy house.
I mean, it really is because, like, fucking Joe Bologna, right before she kisses Michael
Kane, she, like, gets in bed with her father and it's just, like, wrapping her hand.
Like, it's just a little too, it's a lot to.
Wake up.
It's just, and I mean, like, I'm sorry, if it's just, it's gross.
The whole thing, like the daddy thing and it's all happening and we're, I'm happy with my, my daughter being naked.
She's happy with me being half naked.
She's waking me up from my bed.
No, no, no, no, none of it.
No, none of it.
Just stop.
Everybody stop.
It's all like like fucking adults and go, go to a fucking museum.
You're somewhere, you're a different country.
There's got to be a nice museum.
you can go to have a cup of coffee
talk about things maybe this is a
fucking theme bark miles
of rainforests to go on Tours
in it's real they got that huge
Jesus statue go take a look at that
I would love to see the Jesus statue
I've seen it movies a hundred times
I've seen this movie they fly by it they do
but nobody there's no tourism whatsoever
because it's all just too sexy
isn't it well let me let me tell you
Steve like if you go to Thailand on a
sexcation you know you're not
going to see the Bangkok International
museum of art you're not taking any sorts of river trips you're going where the fun is and this is a
sexcation and the weird thing about this movie that the one weird thing is like there's there's a difference
between a movie about you know like an old man getting into a relationship with a young girl and like
showing how shallow and stupid and crazy and disgusting that is and then there's a movie that sexualizes that
young girl to no end and that's this movie not the first one like if you if you had like pg weird like
cut away, you know what I mean? We know
it's happening, but we never have to
fucking chew on it. Yeah. That's a different
story. That's a movie I can almost get behind. You're putting
it right in my face. We see like the
behind shot of her taking off a bikini.
We just see the bear back. Yeah, exactly.
And you don't see anything in front, but her
front is everywhere. Oh, it's
just in your face. You see that Quentin Tarantino
pan up like reservoir dogs. Like,
right, it's about to happen. Stuck
in the middle of you with you's
happening and we just pan up.
And we hear the screams and then we come back
down, they're smoking cigarettes.
Which is, I think that happens to the
Reservoir Dogs right now. Yeah, Michael
Madsen fucks that cop.
I think that's what it. Fucks Marvin Nash.
So,
they're having this breakfast.
She's got shaving cream all
over her face. All over her face
because they've been making out. Like, he's
like, he's like, you have to get out of here.
And she's like, all right, just one quick kiss.
And he's like, well, all right.
If it's only a little kiss,
that's fine. Where is it going to be?
Yeah. What are you kissing?
As I understand it, hell is a, it's an absolute place, right? I'm going there.
So, fuck it, right? But you know what? That's tears. So I'm going to go for the lowest tear possible.
So, yeah, they come out to breakfast. She's got shaving cream all over her face. And Joseph Bologna, he's a real overbearing father. And he's like, hey, what's that on your face there? And she's like, oh, it's whipped cream. And she, like, oh, it's whipped cream. And she, like, puts a grape on the shaving cream.
eats it to cover up this crazy charade.
Well, the weird, that's the way to think about him being an overbearing father is that he's
not until he is, and it's weird.
Like, I understand, like, when things come to light, no matter any father in the universe,
liberal as anything, is going to try and cave somebody's fucking head in.
No, and I'm not criticizing him for that, but I am criticizing him for things.
Like, where are you going?
Who are you talking to?
You better call me right before you get penetrated.
Exactly.
Which is this dude's fucking policy.
It's a weird hopscotch to do.
But after you've told her, you can stay out.
to 1 a.m. in Rio.
Yeah. By yourself.
She knows that you're on a sex vacation.
And you've told her almost outright that she's also now on a sex vacation.
I don't think he sleeps in the jungle house many times, like maybe twice.
No, he's going to the clubs.
He's got this thing on the side. Yeah. And it's, I mean, I don't want every father to be
Liam Neeson and taken, but I think this guy could learn a thing or two.
Oh, yeah. Yeah. You know, just amp it up a little bit.
Don't get your wires crossed so much with your mixed messages and whatnot.
And that's the thing, though.
It's not her fault.
She's just a kid expressing herself, and fucking creepy old Granny Kane is the fucking
lecherous pimp in this movie.
Ah, thank you.
And it's just, and he never gets blamed.
It's all her.
It's all put on her.
It's like, this crazy sex bot's just chasing me around this villa.
What am I supposed to do?
Yeah, this teenage horn dog girls getting blamed who's going through the roof.
hormones and divorce and everything
Delors. Rio's getting blamed.
Rios should not be blamed.
Michael Cain's name in this movie
should be Rio.
That's the Rio in which
you are blaming it on, okay?
Oh man. And he's just like,
oh, what am I going to do? I guess I can't do
anything but have sex with this girl
every waking moment. All right.
Is that okay with you, parents? Can't talk,
can you? Excellent.
Is that okay with you there?
Keeper. What's that? tongue cut out
from a militia in the jungle?
Blame it. O'Reo!
Yeah, it's a hilarious mute
thing where she keeps catching them in the wrong
situation and shaking her head.
Just disapproval. One eye
up.
So then, you know, we have like
another day at the beach and who cares, but
we get back to the parent house that night
where Michael Kane is making a hilarious
salad. Like they're
having this dinner and, you know, Joe Bologna
is running around the kitchen being all Italian.
and making gravies and stuffed peppers and whatnot.
Stir the sauce.
The funny thing is this is what he's talking to him about.
He's like, well, you know, last summer she told me she wanted to go on birth control.
And I said, no way.
And my guy's like, oh, oh, oh, oh, fuck.
Well, you just pulled the alarm.
I'm going to make my noose.
And he's like, oh, yeah, but, you know, I actually kind of, I calmed down.
I said it was her decision because she's a liberated woman
But she also has to tell me when she's going to have sex
And I want details and pictures
But it's not weird, right?
And you know, Michael Keynes, oh, this is weird
And he starts shaving these carrots
And these carrot salad
It's this
It's a mountain of shaved carrots
It's fucking close encounters of shaved carrots
It's a carrot slaw is what it is, I believe
It's amazing
There's like a couple of lettuce leaves
like for your base and then like a couple of cherry tomatoes here and there and then this mound
of carrot shavings and you're like wow that's a lot of carrots and then he pulls up the shaver
yeah the greater and there's even more carrots underneath the bed of carrots and this is a salad
this is a man making a salad that's passed around at this dinner table so they set the table
eating outside so all the monkeys and birds can still be pissing and shitting all over everything
And Demi Moore and Jennifer come back
And Demi Moore's like, hey, pig
And he's like, oh, fuck.
Oh, hello, Demi.
And she's got a boyfriend.
She's like, I'm going to go out with Sergio here.
And he's going to fuck my brains out.
And you got nothing to say, do you?
Oh, really weird.
Nothing.
Talk to you later.
Bye.
And, you know, yes, Michael Cain's horrible.
I'm not defending him at all.
The least this Sergio fella could have done was say hello.
Like, he's like, hey, where is this boy?
I want to know his name before you go.
out with him. And she's like, yeah, but
fuck you.
I wish I had a cigarette. I'd put it
out your fucking old eyeball.
And then this dude kind of like reaches
in and grabs like a piece of meat
off the table, like Joe Bologna's meatballs
or something. And just takes a bite
and she's like, shaved meat pile.
Shaved pile of beef.
And then she's like, come on, Sergio.
We're going inside. And this dude
doesn't say a word. It's like, you know what, man?
Say hello. If you want
to be an asshole, you can still be an
asshole and say hello. Hey. Hey there, dad. Pretend like you know something. Maybe she told you
some shit. She probably did tell him and she's just like, hold it in. If he does anything,
just hold it in. Don't say anything. I want to punch him in the face. Yeah, this guy's probably a
Catholic. He's fucking disgusted. She's another one giving us bad names. Exactly. And of course,
there's some fucking, you know, they sit down to dinner and there's a lot of fucking under the table
hygiene. Well, that's the thing Jennifer doesn't go off with the young and she wants to hang out with
Daddy and Uncle Matthew
My two dads
And it's just
Dad is
Three inches away from you
The guy that you've
That you've been
You've known your entire life
Has raised you like a father
You're rubbing his leg next to it
And if you're Michael King
You're like, oh that's right
She's fucking crazy
And it's
And I'm a monster
For exploring it
Of course
That's what it is
Why didn't I think of this sooner
Why I feel like a real stupid
cow just
Joe baloney she's rubbing him off
Joe baloney like that's what's amazing is there's
some dumb ass song playing because all
the music in this movie's terrible it's like
fucking Portuguese jazz
and you could keep it all
and she's just rubbing this dude off and he's like
oh I keep dropping my napkin
and she's like rubbing like I'll get
that stain out and Joe baloney's like oh we're
a great family here
my best my best English buddy here
my little daughter who looks hot tonight
but I'm you know I'm kind of respectful so I'm not
gonna say it out loud i think there's something in this scene where he's like these are the two
people closest to me on the entire planet well he's like he's at the edge of every rope he's got
oh absolutely because he's like oh you know he makes some weird toes he's like i love both of you
so much and his fucking bitch is bleeding me dry but i gotta go i'm gonna go to the sex house now
the fact that this man finding out what he finds out at the end of the movie makes it to the
end credits without taking his own life?
I don't understand it. I want to know how strong
this guy is. Get this guy on Oprah and talk
about personal strength.
Yeah, there is a suicide attempt
in this and it's not him. It's kind of
shocking. Shockingly, it's not Joseph
Bologna. And it's not Michael Cain
successfully doing so.
Man, I wish he just fucking
kicked that chair out from underneath himself.
And it's not just a handjibber.
She's trying to get off this guy. It's
a fucking, she's like
pouring sugar on the table
in writing, I heart you on it.
She's mouthing, I love you to him.
I would go upstairs, go into bathtub, fill it up, and throw a toaster in it.
I mean, man, this is a five-alarm problem.
Or maybe just as a tip, as a way to, like, apologize to Joe Bologna, just do it Roman style and open your wrists.
So he's like, well, it's almost 8 o'clock and I haven't fucked you.
Talk to you later.
Hey, you babysit my kid, he says.
Now, again, everybody, let's just take a moment.
We're about to talk about the next sequence in this film.
This is your last fucking chance, people.
I know, I know.
New listeners.
I mean, you know what?
Old listeners.
Oldest friends.
The Judge Dread episode is a great time.
It's so much fun, right?
Folks like our baby cakes episode.
Invisible Child's pretty strong.
Yeah, you know what?
Yeah, just.
this is a catalog
there's a whole like 140 odd episodes
it's your last chance
we even talk about some exploitation films
that are less disgusting than this movie
we've done poison ivy
we did a movie
where a big foot monster
rips off a dude's cock
listen to that
okay
speaking of listening to something
I don't know
I just can't say what
I don't want to do it
and plus people are like
that's Sadex a fuck
pig and you know what i'm not it's this movie well you are a pig but not for this reason now
all right i'll set the scene then so joseph bologna says listen i gotta go get this shit wet it's
been eight hours i'm drying out it's it's a real problem i gotta take care of this so so you know
he's like i'm out of here michael kane says uh you know well you're just gonna leave your your
daughter here alone he's like no you're gonna be the babysitter this guy gets a little rodney from time and
again and I appreciate it? Sure. So he's like, oh, hey, kid, you're going to sit home and babysit
my daughter. It's fine. And he goes off. He's going to go put it somewhere. It's not like
you're going to enter her or anything. Yeah. He just drives down the driveway laughing.
Yeah, right. Fuck my daughter. That's great. My oldest friend, I mean, I would have to kill
myself if that happened. Am I right? Kill everybody in the house, too. So she's out of the picture.
Hey, you ever seen a shine in Michael Cain? I got an ex. I would have. I would.
never know you need to talk because you never betray me like that right palh talk to you later
road is just driving up in like a snow plow oh that snow cat can't get here soon enough
that snow cat never gets to where it needs to go taking that snow cat through the jungles of
brazil so so so she's she's uh she's she's she's she's home with michael cane you know
they start making out immediately make the door's not even closed all the way he didn't start the car
and they're making out.
And he's like, no, we can't do this.
It's wrong.
It's wrong, I say.
And she's like, but I'm in love with you because I'm a Texavory cartoon.
And so,
God damn it.
All right, so we cut.
They've had sex.
They've had sex.
They're in a, they're in a hammock.
It looks pretty comfortable.
I love a good hammock.
Probably the same hammock that Joe Bologna is going to, like, rest in the next day.
But you know, life isn't so bad.
You're really just really clear in his head.
Yeah.
Got a good, like, Bologna novel just there.
Hey, balona, balona.
Got it.
Perfect.
All right.
And so then they're reminiscing post-courdes, of course.
Look like you would with a lover.
Smoking a cigarette.
You're in a hammock.
You're in Rio.
It's fantastic.
Ah, let's think about the old days.
And here's a little bit of that scene.
What?
I was just remembering the first time I kissed you.
It was at your christening.
Your mother was powdering.
bottom and I
said I wanted to be the first man to kiss
it
and I leaned over
and I did
how dare you drive a tiny baby wild
with desire
good
are you fucking kidding me
I'm supposed to blame that
on Rio
Rio wasn't anywhere near
that fucking church
no and she's so
nuts and like it's
she's playing into what she thinks he wants
and he's just all into it.
That's a problem.
She is not, at least at the outset, like totally crazy.
No.
He drives her mad.
She's a teenage girl who got fucked and thinks that this is what this dude wants.
So there can be more fucking and everybody can be happy and having a great time.
And nobody has to blame Rio for anything.
Exactly.
That's the worst part is that he plays the victim in every scene.
He's just a big, sad, sack, selfish piece of shit.
and he's just like yet like try like he's like oh poor like oh boy me or some shit like that and you just want him to shut up shut up and kill himself and that's the only thing i'd like him to do in this film or chemical castration whichever comes first yeah and so the next morning she's like i gotta tell my daddy and he's like oh no and he's thinking about killing her maybe a little bit probably a little bit yeah not a lot but a little bit i mean it is rio you could blame that on rio you could blame it on
those capoeita guys to take care of it.
Oh my God, she was killed in a parade.
And then you just walk away.
Blame it on Rio.
Blame that whole, you file that whole thing in your mind palace as blame that on Rio.
You keep it in the same room you got Moriarty and you keep on walking.
It's Moriarty chained to a wall and a dead 17-year-old girl.
Sure.
Who was, quote, trampled.
in a parade just all in your mind palace well there's this gunshot to her temple you
sure it was a stampede you said it was a gun parade you know how they are you know how they are so
she goes into debt she has to wake her dad up every morning you know just by hugging him and he's
like oh my my darling angel you know and there is a good thing to point out here though to uh if
if anyone wasn't convinced that michael canes a scumbag in this movie uh at that point
where she's like, I love you and I want to tell my dad.
His solution is, well, I maybe love you too.
I don't know necessarily.
I know, for one, we should not tell your father,
but I would like to keep up the fucking, if it all possible.
It's like, oh man, you dirt-eating scumbag.
It's outrageous.
And she's, it's amazing.
It's my favorite scene of the movie because I think it's going where I want it to go.
Because, like, he doesn't even know.
Like, she says that kind of vaguely and runs off.
He doesn't know what she's doing.
He's in the room next to it to Bologna, and, you know, she starts to cry,
and she's telling him about all about this affair she's been having.
And he starts to lose his shit.
And he's like, oh, oh, fuck.
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
And he starts, like, he's like getting like half dressed and, like, pack of this bag to nowhere.
He drops the stethoscope he's had, put up against the door.
Yeah, exactly.
And this is the part, like, you know the old, if when is Steve going to kill him,
I hope that Steve has a strong or moral fortitude
not to fuck my best friend's 16-year-old daughter
that I fucking christened.
But let's just say I'm a monster, right?
Let's just imagine that.
Well, listen, man, there's never been anyone more successful
at driving a baby wild.
Oh, no.
Sorry, I just had to re-chill my bones.
Yeah, they get a little warm for a second.
Yeah, I was warming up.
And this is when I'm making the noose, right?
This is when I'm writing a real quick letter to my wife
of my daughter and be like, I'm so sorry. So, oh, sorry. Dear Rhoda, whoops. And this is when
I'm making the news and it's like, here it comes. This is what they're just, that's the only
thing. And like, when she's like, and he's 43 and like, that's when I kick the bucket out.
And I would wait till a name is given. Yeah. I mean, I, me too. I mean, at the end of everything,
I'm still taking my own life. You have to, right? But if it means like another day or two of
hanging out in Rio and continuing this far as for a little bit. Sure.
If a name's not given, I might not kick the chair.
Not a guarantee, but I might not kick the chair.
I just want to lie my way out of this until I can get home and, like, find some sleeping pills.
You want to kill yourself on American soil?
Like a comfortable bed.
That's my bed and some sleeping pills.
You can put your favorite record on.
Joni Mitchell's blue is on.
I'm fine.
I'm ready to go.
You do like a two-day movie marathon of your favorites.
him all right before the end i'm programming the chris kavin suicide film festival i would
love it and no she kind of she backs off he he loses it ballooner loses his shit he's ready
i'll kill the son of a bitch he's like but he's like why didn't you call me first
what about the pact you promised me in the pact like that matters below you you fucking
simpleton he starts going off like talia shire's husband in the
godfather he's throwing all sorts of things everywhere yeah he's pissed he's pissed but he's not
like he's not mad at her which is kind of nice you know what i mean he's like it's that stupid
father thing of like oh i don't i don't see my kid as a sexual being obviously she was raped
even though she definitely was raped oh he forced you on the beach i know it i mean that's rape uh
but she's she's like uh but i fucked him yeah yeah no but he he tricked you somehow he did
trick her somehow and then after this she says daddy i love
I love him.
The most disgusting phrase I've ever heard.
I'm sorry, that's when I would kick the chair.
That's when me as Joe Bologna, I'm all filled with Italian rage, right?
I go, all right, I've been meaning to talk to you about this.
And I really, now more than ever, we've got to retire the daddy thing.
Honestly, we've all outgrown it.
It creeps people out.
Now, more than ever, that you're having sex with a man my age, please retire the daddy business.
A good pop, a good father.
Yeah, pa, I call my dad, pa, all the time.
You're Italian.
You should be proud of that.
Pa, pop.
See how that sounds coming out of your Italian mouth.
It's fantastic.
By the way, here's the thing about Joe Bologna that he didn't really think about.
When she says, Daddy, I love him, you pretend like you're totally cool with it, right?
Like, oh, honey, why didn't you say so?
My God, you love him?
Oh, well, then it doesn't matter.
love sees through all ages.
It don't matter if you're 100 and you're 16, it's fine.
As long as you love each other.
Now, when do I get to meet this nice fella?
She drops the name, then you go in the next room and kill him.
You got to trick her into giving you the name.
But instead, he's flying off the handle, blaming everything on Rio.
Everyone's blaming way too much on Rio.
Poor Rio, man.
You know what?
And we just said that, by the way, about Rio.
Debbie Moore is the only one taking responsibility for her.
actions in Rio. Where's the deleted scene where she's going to the library and looking up
types of plants she can find in the jungle? Oh, this is, like, she, she goes hand gliding at one
point. Oh, yes. She's having a blast. She's having an appropriate, she has a little bit of a young
love affair. That's fun. Now, here's the thing. If you have to criticize this movie on something
other than how horrendous the characters in this story act, it has to be that storytelling-wise
And structurally, this movie kind of takes a real dead stop when Joseph Bologna launches his own investigation as to finding out who this man is, which is what you reminded me of with the hang gliding scene.
Because it's kind of a montage of them going around like, all right, Michael Cain, who do you think this fucking asshole could be?
He goes next door and it's like, you know, it's really a lot of this is three's company gags.
And he's like, I'm going to kill that's, I'm going to kill the person who fucked my daughter.
He's like, oh, oh, listen.
And he's like, whenever I find out.
whoever that may be and it's like hey hey that's funny and then they go their partners in this
and he's like i'll help you find that son of a bitch and when you find him i'll help you cut his
bows up yeah why not possibly well i mean that's the thing is it's a bit of a trade off because
this part of the movie is i mean dead boring but i mean my blood pressure's lower yeah exactly
my blood pressure just goes down a little bit where i'm not screaming at the television for
everybody to stop. Listen, I mean, this is, this is a little great inside story here. So Chris and I had seen this movie beforehand. Eric has also seen this movie. Steve had never seen it. Steve had no idea what this movie was about. So just a little insight into the, the we hate movies process. We always watch the movies separately and then come together the next day or whatever and talk about it. But today, we're on the second half of a doubleheader here. We're in the afternoon game. And, you know, we're like, oh, we'll just watch the movie together. The, the, the, the, the, the, the,
The Dom Deloese wheeze laughing at watching Steve watch this movie
And the horror of someone who doesn't know what this particular movie
Like I can watch, like you can show someone Memento, right?
You're like, what's this?
I don't know what this is about.
Okay, just watch it.
You can just watch Fight Club or whatever.
It's fine.
You don't know what it's about.
Watch it.
You can't do that to someone with this movie.
No, you have to tell them.
I had no idea.
And you know what?
Even more inside baseball.
I'm Italian, Russian, kind of half-Jewish.
You know, a lot of Mediterranean in my blood.
I'm olive skin for the most part.
I am white as a sheet as I record this podcast.
I am fucking albino right now because it's disgusting.
Oh, mercy me.
So, yeah, they're going around.
There is that hilarious scene where Demi Moore's getting ready for a hang gliding date.
And he's like, come on, tell me.
Who's fucking a...
Yeah, maybe you should not reveal knowledge.
that you have on your friends like that.
Whose side are you on here?
And she's like, I'm just trying to go hang gliding.
Nobody likes a rat.
Why don't we just stick to physical attributes?
We don't have to get names involved.
Just some physical attributes.
How long is her nails?
Look, I tried this physical attribute thing,
and she described an old woman to me.
Your plan was useless.
She said perm.
She said big glasses.
She said worrying all the time.
Holy fuck it was Mrs. Doubtfire.
I'm going to kill Robin Williams
I still get he's going to fucking get it
But the worst part about the Demi Moore subplot
Is she like
She knows everything
And like
She's just sitting on it
And these two girls sleep in the same room
And of course
Fucking Jennifer's hugged
The Winnie the poo teddy bear
Every night
You know what?
You saw her suck this dude's dick on a beach
Now she's just hugging a teddy bear
Doesn't that make you feel like the worst fucking scumbag for watching this movie?
And she keeps coming in at night after her and Michael Kane are having,
her and fucking Demi Moore's father having rendezvouses.
And she's like, I'm so sorry.
Do you hate me?
And she's like, no, I hate him.
And she believes it, which is total bullshit.
And I don't think that this movie that I'm about to mention is really realistic,
but American Beauty had that part right.
It's fucking that piece of shit, the one that doesn't work anymore.
No, neither of them working...
Thorough Birch?
Mita Suvari?
Yes.
Meena Suvari.
Now they're not going to work anymore.
Uh, meita Suvari.
Fucking cheese.
Like, getting Kevin Bacon all riled up.
Spacey.
Yeah, Kevin Spacey all riled up and like, she's getting into it.
Thorough Birch is like, you're fucking disgusting.
Like, what the fuck are you doing to my dad?
And that movie also has the right of, the right mind.
Like, there's some like kind of sexy little fantasies.
But at the moment, Kevin Spacey is like, oh, wait, I'm not a monster.
I can't do this because you're a child and I'm an adult.
I can't do that.
And she gets all upset and everybody learns a little message and then fucking, you know,
obviously Chris Cooper's going to kill him for being gay.
It's totally fine.
That makes sense.
It's what happens.
Chris Cooper blew someone's brains out.
Oh, I wish he.
Yeah, maybe he's doing some black ops in this movie because he...
Oh, yeah.
These are his early days.
These are his early days of Chris Cooper.
He just wants to kill everybody.
Oh, yeah.
Well, actually, he could be the father of Sergio.
Yes, exactly.
Sergio's father.
Sergio's selling everybody all sorts of great wee.
I suck the best dick in four counties
Or whatever that line is
From that overrated movie
Yeah, that would be great actually
Chris Cooper's like coming back from a tour
Nicaragua and he stops off in Rio for a vacation
He was in City of God
And now he's here
Your City of God is around the corner
Beechy Dobs
An hour plane ride
Our plane ride from City of God
This little fucking silly shit is happening
so yeah i mean it's the boring
i hate saying the word boring about this part because it's the part i would watch
a hundred times before the fucking christening scene
it's the part with without all the filthy sex in it
so long as both both parties are old enough to consent i'm fine with it
and you know maybe this little investigation which is boring
will stop michael came from being like i do remember that one soccer practice you had
like ew ew ew stop just shut up you fucking old lady
I remember your primary school graduation, I do.
Remember it very well, actually.
That was a pretty little dress.
I had front row seats, I did.
What's your name?
Detective Steebler.
Actually, I have something on the oven.
You get the hell out of my house, Stabler.
You and you're way old but still sexually attractive partner.
That's what I want is all those times Stabler goes off the grid to get somebody.
the time. Man, there's that horseshit episode
where he goes to the Czech Republic.
Shut the front
door. And then he works with that old
detective named the Falcon or some
shit like that. Yep, that's
stupid.
So, I mean, you know, Michael
Cain's running him around in circles, you know.
He knows the eye color.
Yeah. Oh, the individual. Okay.
And then there's another scene where Bologna
gets into her diary. And it's amazing
because, well, that's just
a rampant invasion of
Her privacy, I think.
You don't want to do that.
Now you're crossing a line.
It's one thing I can't stand.
It's people crossing lines.
It's a landmine in there.
You know what he finds, by the way, is a fucking polaroid selfie that she takes full frontal, by the way.
Which we see the photo shoot because why wouldn't you?
Why wouldn't you just throw that in there, Stan Donan?
Well, that I feel like Stanley Donan's entire, I mean, this is his last movie.
The movie before this is, I think it's called like.
Saturn 3.
Saturn 3.
It is horrendous.
This is obviously much worse.
But I feel like the whole
shoot is just like fuck it.
I feel like every directorial like
you maybe not want to show her
like doing this whole thing.
Maybe from the back a good like back shot.
This is the scene where there's the full frontal nudity
and you're like why does this have to be there?
Well that's the weird thing about this movie though
is it's almost that kind of
blaze who gives a shit sex farce
but it seems it's turning the corner on like passion project because of all the chances it's taking you know what I mean like I mean I'm not I'm not throwing stones at nobody I yeah but it's just it's one of those things like this isn't a movie you it's hard to make this movie on accident is what I'm saying it is but you know the other thing I mean we keep using the word farce and you know what goes along with farce 100% of the time jokes jokes jokes gags laughs giggles any of there's none there's there's nothing funny in this movie
movie the funniest shit is just how 90% of the shots have parrots somewhere in the composition
there's just a parrot just hanging out it's like a highlights for kid magazine you're looking at
like a coffee table you're like oh is that the leg of a table no it's a parrot like it's amazing
lampshay not a two can that grandfather clock looks an awful lot like a huge parrot
there's also paintings of parrots it's all over this house it's not enough
We've got live, multiple kinds of birds all over the place.
We need paintings of those parrots.
In case the paintings, in case the parrots aren't around, you have the paintings.
An open-door pet store.
It must smell like shit.
I was just going to say it's kind of smelling shit.
Well, that's actually great for Michael Kane because fucking Joe Bologna can't smell the sex.
Yeah.
Just the overwhelming stench of parrot shit.
And then there's also like a weird subplot where she, like he keeps, Michael Cain keeps trying to break it off, right?
And he's like, I can't do this anymore.
Oh, whoops, I did again.
And, like, he keeps trying to break it off.
Like, I keep trying to get in shape, by the way.
That's an unused gym membership if I've ever seen one.
Oh, that 1999 just goes out of the checking account every month.
Yeah, I'm trying.
He's trying to break it off by saying things like, we can't tell your father, but I'll still fuck you.
And really trying.
And at one point, he does actually break up with her.
And he's like, you know, you got to find a boy your own age.
and she like starts doing witchcraft to him which is hilarious like it's really it's really weird
because he actually like tosses her off on this dude yeah he's like oh who's that over there
he seems like a fine fellow he's your age too and she's like oh it's rudy and he's like oh well
that clearly isn't his name but andrew couldn't remember it go talk to him and then she's like
okay I will and he's like ah done and he leaves and she's she like watches him
go and then it's like all right
off to the witch doctor i go
and now there's just magic
in this movie and it doesn't
come to anything except for the only
legitimate laugh which is she
puts like a half circle of
candles around his doorway
and michael cain walks out in the
morning and steps on a lit candle
and it's hilarious oh fuck
my fucking foot
bad enough joe baloia's product
i slit my throat
do you talk to the moboo again
it would be great though
I mean I don't know
and I'm part of Italian so I feel like
get away with this but like if like
Joe Bologia keeps asking him to go in like
car rides
wait why
well no we're gonna go find this son of a bitch right
that's we gotta find him down the road
just meet you and Gino
who's Gino
an old friend of mine what come on in
we're buddies come on
I know I kind of wanted to be like an
eight for go to speak like
oh do you think you could give me one more chance
do you think you could give me out of this
Hey, you're never going to believe this.
I've found Brazil's equivalent to the Meadowlands.
Let's go for a drive.
Get me off the hook for old time, hike.
Man, A. Fagoda getting killed in that movie.
It's so great. He's just so graceful and like, well, I've lived a life.
And then he wound up living another 49 years.
He's still alive. Is he still alive?
Wow, he's a vampire, huh?
He's a vampire who's doing it all wrong.
he's kept aging
or unless
Abe Vigoda became a vampire
when he was 80 years old
that's a shitty time
that is the worst time
to be yeah exactly
so at some point
finally it all comes out
right like
Joe Bologna starts
just beating up people
randomly in the street
because he's like
you're the 40 year old motherfucker
and he starts beating up this guy
in a dance club
and then like there's this other guy
this other Portuguese guy
that kind of looks like
Walt Disney who's hilarious and he's like they're kind of tour guide a bit and like I think he's
their neighbor too yeah he's over for sexy breakfast an awful lot and he's like you son of a bitch
it was you the whole time and like instead of finally Michael Kane speaks up after the other guy
gets a chick kicked out of him by Joe Bologna oh the singer of the they go to a nightclub and
he's like the daughter gets on stage they're spying on her they're like following her the daughter
gets on stage and she's dancing with this dude and then the dude's like singing a song and
Michael Kane is the only one who speaks Portuguese
and he's translating the lyrics
to this song that this fucking nightclub
owner is just singing or whatever
and the dude's like, oh, whoa, that's it
that's got to be him and like rushes
the stage and starts beating the shit out of
this guy. This guy's clearly 20 years
old, not matching the profile
at all. At all. Doesn't have
a perm. No, nothing. And then
you know, he's going to be it at Walt Disney
and
Michael Kane's like, it was me. Oh, I'm so
sorry. Oh, just hit me all
Just hit me.
No, no, I'm not going to hit you.
You know, meet me by that old, old warehouse.
I got some big coats for you.
No, no, the farther back.
The father back, keep going.
Keep going.
The good coats are farther back.
Keep going.
No.
No, you know, I'm going to come back later.
I'm going to come back later.
I'm going to pick up the kids.
That Janice Rossi is a whore.
You have a whore living in your building, sir.
And her name is Janice Rossi.
for me for me are you listening to me
i see you all
that's the best performance she's ever done
it's a great performance that's not a slight at all
no it's not but her character's useless on the sopranos
sure is and it's this bullshit and this is when the movie turns and you're like wait
what because like yes of course you would lay out all those British teeth right with
one fucking fist they're pretty loose to begin with
a fist i think you mean a Louisville slugger
And he just sits down and he's like, I mean, it's kind of actually nice because, like, he's not a hot-headed Italian, even though we're monsters, this movie is a little, no, no, no, we're better in this movie.
Uh, and just, come on, it's the only time in this movie, he's not yelling.
Yeah, exactly, he's just like, I can't believe it was you. Why'd you have to tell me, you ruined my, oh, you just, you've ruined my whole life.
Couldn't you just say Rio did it?
Yeah, how'd you got to blame it on Rio? I'm so sorry. I'm so embarrassed right now.
What's amazing, by the way. And in the shittiest.
part of filmmaking technique in this movie is...
Oh, I forgot.
Like, he's freaking out.
He's going to punch Walt Disney.
And Michael Cain says, no, it's me.
And in the background, there's just blue lights that start flashing.
Like, it's a fucking old-ass Hollywood movie, Sterling, Donan.
This blue light for lightning, and then just to rumble a thunder.
Like, he's the fucking wicked witch of the West.
Like, it's unbelievable.
And it happens twice.
He kind of looks like the...
wicked witcher the less
and you know
he's just like oh you know I wish you didn't even tell
me and he's like he's like
oh just hit me and make me feel better it's like well if it doesn't
if it makes you feel better I'm not going to do it
and that's kind of nice
it's a nice thing and
the rest of this movie now
it's Michael Kane trying to
convince Joe Bologna that it's
okay that he's having sex with his
daughter and what's ridiculous
he was like ask her out on a date like
it's ridiculous he's like well now you know
now everything's out
the cat's out of the bag
we can keep fucking
you know and I'm just
I'm gonna tell your dad that I'm in love with you
and you're like wait
man I thought this movie was over with
like there should be a big fight
and everybody moves out of the jungle house
and that's the end of it well it's her
I mean remember it's her that's very much like
well now it's out in the open we can do this
it's much more her than him because
I mean eventually he's like
oh I can't do I mean oh you oh commitment
yeah that's the problem
And somewhere in all this nonsense, Demi Moore calls Rota, and she's like, hey, Rhoda, you really better get back here.
Someone's about to blame something on Rio.
And dad's going to get in some trouble.
And in this case, Rio is innocent.
And, like, Demi Moore is, like, applying for colleges, like, you know, just having a really smart summer vacation.
A good, like, John Houston movie is happening in the background of this movie.
She's getting a lot of titles knocked off her summer reading list.
Yeah, oh yeah. It's like, well, I mean, I know that we're not going to cover that until freshman year, but I better get it done now. Oh, yeah. Going on dates with a guy who turns out to be a prince.
She's like learning conversational Portuguese so she can get certified. And that's that language requirement done already. She doesn't have to worry about it. Absolutely. She's just knocking stuff off the academic checklist in this movie. So while all this is going on, you know, they're getting in this huge fight, like a day passes. And there's a little bit of nonsense going on.
where it's like, well, now we know so we can fuck in the house.
And it's a lot of like Joe Bologna opening the door and like Michael King closes the door.
And they listen for like, okay, he went to bed.
Now I'm going to tiptoe in and fuck you.
Oh, what's that?
No, oh, caught you again, huh?
There's a lot of that.
Is that somebody fucking or a parrot's feathers mull thing?
I can't tell it this fucking house.
Stupid parrot house.
God damn living social escapes group on.
So the next morning they get in another fight.
And he's, like, arguing with Michael Kane, and Michael Kane's like, you know, look, listen, I love your daughter. Is that so crazy? I haven't been this happy in years. Blah, blah, blah, blah. Rota walks into the parrot house. I don't know how she got there that fast. And you know what? The red eye. Yeah, she took the red eye to God knows where it. My second least favorite line, the one I will say, because it's gross. And it's at least Joe Bologna, you're trying to get it at Michael Cain. But he's like, what? With this teething ring, I the wed? And it's like, ew.
Can we stop making references to babies?
I would love it.
I would fucking love it.
Like, at least replace that with like, oh, what, you're going to get married in a cheerleader
uniform?
Yeah, just something that's going to carry a trapper keeper down the aisle.
That's fine.
I'm okay with that one, Chris.
Because you know who doesn't have a trapper keeper?
A baby.
Exactly.
You know who should be having sex?
A baby.
You know who should be aroused when they're kissed at their christening?
A baby.
this stupid movie
so rhoda shows up
and she's all pissed off
because she finds out what's going on
like it takes her a while to figure it out
and she's pretty devastated
and you know Valerie harper is a great actress
and she's like oh my god
I can't believe this I can't believe this
and she finally tells Michael Kane
uh oh something else is going on
which is this third act twist
is such bullshit
oh it's bullshit oh because apparently
uh oh she's been fucking Joe Bologna
and that's why she went on her own
vacation. And that's why Joe Bologna was so upset that she wasn't going to come on vacation.
It's like, you son of a bitch, Joe Bologna. How dare you have sex with my 41-year-old wife?
Who can make her own decisions and isn't, you know, addled. Hey, Michael Cain, you got a saddle for that high horse you're riding. It's insane the way he react. It's ridiculous. He's more pissed off than Joe Bologna got. And the story of the movie is now bullshit. I'm sorry. Like, you can't just now.
Well, I guess everyone's a little bit in the wrong.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
Like, there's wrong, and then there's fucking immoral.
There's burglary, and then there's fucking homicide.
I agree.
And speaking of death,
while all the adults are in the room bickering with each other.
Nobody knew that the fucking third act of the apartment's going on in the next fucking room.
And this girl, because she's so fucking messed up by this fucking old chicken hawk.
that's been feeding off for this entire movie
that she just, she wants to kill herself.
And it's like, oh, you know, Daniel Warren's like,
oh, my God, you took all these pills.
They're all over my school books.
And we go to the hospital.
And, you know, everyone's in the waiting room.
And of course, because we have to keep linking this to babies.
Joe Bologna's like, you know, weird thing,
my daughter being almost dead in that next room.
last time you me and her went a hospital together
was when she was born and I'm like oh my god
and then like the most
unrealistic and I know what movie I'm talking about
but the most unrealistic thing happens
they hug oh yeah
I don't want you to touch me again
ever again listen
I'm either buying you out of the business
or you're buying me out of the business
we're never talking to each other ever again
friendship over you can take rhoda i'll take your daughter yeah trade zes that's it i'm definitely
not giving you a hug just because our daughter odied on what turned out to be birth control pills
by the way that's the gag and you and michael cain wipes his brow oh few i was worried after
that first time we had unprotected sex and then i i found out she might not be on birth control
then we fuck five other times in this movie and i was still pretty worried when she wasn't on
bath control. I mean, I was the man on wire
for some time here.
And this
really settles my nose.
There's a really great cut in this movie
when Demi Moore comes out and she's like,
blah, blah, blah, the pills.
It's totally like the gag
The Simpsons have used a couple of times where it's like
smash cut to the ambulance.
Oh, yeah. Because she's like, I think there's
pills on the floor.
I did dust them off my cover
of Tale of Two Cities.
And then
This is when the movie really starts to wrap up
Because the movie's over
That was the climax, a good old-fashioned suicide attempt
And Joe Bologna and Michael Cain have to stay in the same room
Because apparently there aren't enough rooms in the house
And Rhoda wants to be alone
And Michael Cain is in these bikini bottoms
And that's all he's wearing
Joe Bologna is in great fucking shape, B.T. Dubs
Oh yeah, he prepped for this movie
He kind of looks like a Harry Dean Stanton type
Harry Dean Stanton was an old man that could have kicked your ass
Probably not so much anymore these days
With Harry Dean Stanton being so old
He's turned a corner
Yeah
But you know he was an older man who could really kick your ass
And they're like getting into bed
They're all angry at each other
And like Michael Cain has the fucking gall
To be mad at Joe Bologna
And Joe Bologna is like
Are you fucking kidding me?
I'm sorry I drank the last beer in the fridge
But you just fucking killed my dog
There's a little bit of a difference
and they get into a big naked fight
you know michael cain's taint is all over
blame that on rio
it's insane this guy's taint
and i mean balona has these linen
like these linen pants on his junk is just like
tapping out you gotta give him the joe bologna
you got to give him the joe bologna man
he knows he's in great shape and through most of this movie
he's dressed like jack lor lane and it's fantastic
It's really, really fantastic.
This guy's in shape, and he doesn't give a fuck, who knows.
And, like, yeah, so much Michael Caintein.
And, of course, like, they're, like, kind of greedy.
Joe Bologna's got him in a headlock.
And, like, at the end, of course, the maid comes in.
And it's like, oh, oh.
Yeah, he's like, he's clearly, like, mounted him in this move.
And they've broken the bed.
Like, why would this maid come in?
Why would this maid still be here?
I mean, in that house, I wouldn't be that surprised.
to be like oh okay you're doing that too sure whatever yeah oh you're fucking that
do you want one of these birds for later i'll keep one of the birds awake in case you're
interested well here's your new sheets goodbye congratulations alister crowley and she just leaves
how do you say i quit in portuguese and you know next day everyone's a little clearer head and
you know like joe bologna and valerie harper have this scene where he's like you know i don't know
what i'm going to do after you know when this divorce goes through i'll be free and she's
well I could be divorced just as much time man
maybe we could do something
and he's like not really
and then you know Valerie goes into the next room
and there's Michael Kane packing his bags
and you know there was a thing at the beginning of the movie
where you know he had been like let me put my
my scuba flippers in your suitcase
and that's how she broke the news... Oh what an innocent time that was
oh yeah man that was that was another America
it was another America before I said I believe this was a
Stanley Donan movie. Yeah. You know, she
had been like, you know, well, listen,
I'm not going to Rio with you, so pack your own
fucking flippers. So here we are. At the end
of the movie, all this heinous shit has happened.
And she's like, would you mind putting these
books in, you know,
your suitcase for me?
And he's like, why, I'm not going back to club med.
And she's like, yes, you are. We're all going
to club med. We're going to have something to talk about.
You know, we have to go fix our marriage
or whatever. And I'm like, really?
After all this discussion,
after all the teen fucking and the Joe Bologna a faring,
you're just going to go smooth things over, man.
No, just fucking blow it up, man, and never talk to each other ever again.
You were on the fence before this happened.
Yeah, exactly.
How does this not tip you?
What the fuck is wrong with you?
How did it make it better?
Yeah, exactly how did it make it better.
That's a great question.
And, you know, after all this insanity that's been happening,
you know what the best solution is?
For all the adults to leave and leave the two teenage daughters,
in this fuck house it's amazing because first of all joe bologna fuck you like i'm sorry your daughter
has a suicide attempt an honest too-goodness suicide attempt i know yeah birth control pills and that's funny
but she was intending to kill herself even though they could actually kill herself that's not as
funny no it's not as funny how are you not sleeping at the hospital how are you like just oh well
i'll see you tomorrow kiddo or like waking up the next morning and rushing over the hospital
seeing how she's doing she rolls up to the house like
while they're packing and whatever, and he's like, oh, hey, how did you get here?
I was going to go get you.
And she's like, I met this dude at the hospital.
He's studying to be a doctor.
And he's like, uh, right?
How old is he?
Oh, 20?
All right.
Well, I mean, whoever it is, he's better.
Yeah.
I mean, whatever, I mean, the guy could be a fucking serial killer.
And yeah, that's cool.
Even if it was a 60-year-old stranger, it's better.
Because at least it's not somebody that, you know, I'm not going to go say that again.
The baptism.
We all know.
It's horrendous.
It's the worst.
And, yeah, I mean, like, how do you let, how do you just let your daughter find her own ride back after her own suicide attempt?
Also, he goes, like, yeah, Joe Bologna is going home.
He's going back to America to talk to his wife.
Like, no, no, no, no, no.
I need to make sure that my daughter has to get, she's making a lot of bad decisions these last couple of weeks.
This was a cry for help.
Yes, exactly.
I mean, whatever else it was, it was to say, I'm in trouble.
It was an hour and 47 minute cry for help is what we were talking about here.
Sure.
They just, they all, all, all the adults leave.
And like, Demi Moore's like, fucking, finally,
I don't have to look at that fucking old lady's face.
Fuck my friend.
Oh, man.
And we blame it on Rio.
We just keep blaming it on Rio, man.
And that's, that's the end of the movie.
At the end, there's a little post script.
Michael Kane is just looking at the camera.
And he's like, oh, well, you know, apparently Joe Bologna divorced his wife and
then got back together.
Ha ha.
And then we're, like him and Valerie Harper surprisingly are on unsteady ground.
that's the end of it
And he thinks it's two months out
Two months out until she forgives them
Yeah I give it another two months or so
And then we should be right back on track
Oh I'm in the doghouse this weekend
I'll tell you that much
Then I can go on a weekend trip to Skidmore
And she won't even ask a question
Huh wow
It's really something
I mean it does make you speechless
The whole fucking thing
From the director of singing in the rain
one of my all-time favorite films.
One of everyone's favorite films.
You work with Gene Kelly and you were buddies.
What would Gene Kelly say about this?
He was in Zanadu, wasn't he?
That was his last movie.
You know what? There's no teen sex in Zanadu.
Or it's consensual teen on teen sex if it does happen.
Yeah, there's no 43 on 17.
Yeah, Gene Kelly isn't fucking, you know, Olivia Newton-John, thank Christ.
I don't think that's what happens in that movie.
He plays like the king of the roller dermen.
Yeah, and she's like the magic.
queen of magic as I
understand it of music magic I think
is something something
way better than this movie hey
a movie that's worse than Xanadoo
that's the poster
found it
this movie like failed in every way right
like everyone did America
cry out and rage or no
well I mean critically I think it got bash
what was the Roger Ebert thing
Ebert one star like
like really just took it to town
oh I miss him
yeah
Like the voice of sense, like just there to be like, yo, let's just not know.
You know what?
No, would anybody recommend blame it on Rio?
No, I would not.
I mean, it's almost to see it to believe a thing.
It is very, I mean, and it's right in that line because, I mean, you can't unsee it and you can't forget it.
Well, you certainly can't do either.
No.
I feel complicit in a crime right now, to be honest with you.
It's not a recommend.
but I'm not going to, you know, yell at you if you see it.
Yeah, Chris, you're getting there as a film review.
You don't want to start recommending Blame it on Rio.
They'll put that on the box.
Chris Cabin presents Blame it on Rio.
Mr. Cabin, we are prepping for a Blu-ray release.
Can we slap your name right on that?
No.
Just a big one, no.
I would say this for whether or not I would recommend this movie.
Okay?
I would say bedazzled, charade.
damn Yankees the pajama game funny face see what we're doing all classics seven brides for seven
brothers although that's got some that creepy is insane uh singing in the rain actually on the town
you know what you said seven brides or seven brothers that actually tips its hat to what this
movie is because that is a bunch of brothers kidnapping their brides and making them their bride oh yeah
we're gonna we're gonna take you from the village up to our up to our house in the mountains
we're going to dance on a bunch of logs
and then we're going to marry you.
Oh.
Yeah, it's a weird one.
Hell, I'd even recommend Saturn 3
over this movie. There's a whole mess load
of Stanley Donan movies. You can
program your own suicide film series
too.
Oh, man, that is Blame it on Rio
from 1984
directed by Stanley Donon.
