Hello, I'm Andrew Jupin.
Chris Gavin.
Eric Siska.
Steven Seda.
And we hate movies.
Hello, everyone. Welcome to We Hate Movies on the Side Show Network. Thank you for tuning in, as always. This is a continuing week of the summer blockbuster extravaganza. A little bit of an odd choice here. It's 2005's Son of the Mask, directed by someone named Lawrence Guterman.
Director of Cats and Dogs, actually. Oh, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right. Makes total sense.
More CGI animals in that film as well. He's got a skill.
That skill sets, the yammering dogs.
He brings that CGI dog skill set to CGI baby.
There you go.
Oh, man.
You got to have ambitions.
That's the thing with this stuff.
We got to see how fucking far down the uncanny valley we did.
Let's fucking dig into the valley.
Open up the valley.
Exactly right.
You are developing property in this valley.
So if anyone does not recall, because guaranteed you haven't seen it.
Nobody saw this movie. Unless you, I mean, really hate yourself.
I'm curious though. Here's the thing. Yeah. This movie came in 2005 or 2015 now.
11 years after that original Jim Carrey movie.
We have some people listening to the show that are younger in the 17 to 19 block. I'm hoping not younger because we say fuck a lot.
We got an email from some like 14 year old boy a couple months ago. So, you know.
Did you grow up with this movie? Question. Like, you know, growing up with son of the mass.
Yeah, like you get like a weird. Something's just come. I, I,
grew up with major pain. It makes no sense
in that movie's fucking terrible. Something
just comes into your sphere and you're just watching a bunch
because you're an idiot. Well, you know what? I've got to
say, if you grew up watching
Son of the Mask, please go in for a
psychiatric evaluation.
I think this movie's going to be responsible
for a whole army of Dombers.
Yeah, get the work up twice. Do the
whole thing. I don't understand how this is
a family film. That's the problem.
Oh, no. It absolutely is not.
It's not an adult film either.
It's a classic nobody wins scenario.
It's for no one.
This movie was made with no one in mind.
And you can't even say like this movie was made with dollar signs in their eyes.
Because look at this cast.
This is also a movie that they've been trying to get made ever since the original mask hit the theater.
Right.
Which is a long time ago.
11 years in the making the sequel.
And this is what they come up with?
I mean, George Miller was working on Fury Road for longer.
30 years.
And it's amazing.
You had so much time to think
about how the son of the mask happens
And this is it
Well this is a thing where
It's a hot potato situation
Because I think
Oh yeah for sure
At a certain point
They thought it was going to be Jim Carrey
And then he said no
And then they asked everybody else
How much money was it though
Like it had to be so much money
They asked him to fucking take
I don't know
I mean that's the interesting thing
That this movie falls under
Is there is like a stable of film
that are sequels to Jim Carrey movies
that he has nothing to do with
which is how we're making money
right like he doesn't want to do with third
Ace Ventura movies so you have a little fat
kid play his son
son of Ace Ventura
Ace Ventura Pet Detective Jr.
Remember son of the majestic?
Son of Andy Kaufman
dumb and dumberer when Harry
met Lloyd he's not in that. The boy in the
moon, not the man in the
oh the prequel.
Lil Truman
show. It's a bit of a letdown as well. Number 22.
That's a fucking terrible movie. That is horrible.
Looking at you, Joel Schumacher. And then they did number 21.
Oh, wait, was it the number 23? Did you argue with that joke?
That was literally the joke. I didn't remember the name of the movie.
So, this movie is, Jamie Kennedy, is a would-be animator.
whose wife
Trailer Howard
Yes, from dirty work
And two guys, a girl in a pizza place
She's the pizza place in two girls
She's on Monk a bunch
Which I'm sure that's paying for some summer home
Monk a bunch indeed
There were a lot of people that were just on Monk a bunch
Oh man, Ted Levine doesn't have to work for the rest of his life
Because of Monk
And never have so many people
fallen into the realm of not having to work
for producing such poison
as the TV show Monk
Monk everybody
But it's for a certain audience
But thankfully it's people that I kind of want to
You know not have to work
Ted Levine
Tony Shaloolew
Tony Shaloo. I mean these are all people
I'm happy they don't have to fucking struggle
Just keep USA
original programming
Out of my living room
Just keep them off,
Gray's Anatomy, I'm fine.
Is Ted Levine on Gray's Anatomy? No, but that's my
point is I think he would be doing a
Graze Anatomy arc, if not
for something like Monk. Hey, bro, are you watching
Graze? Yo, bro. You believe he's dead?
Do you believe, uh,
I'm not doing a character. I'm actually asking
if you're watching. Oh, all right. No,
I watched that fucker get T-bone
though on the internet. That was great. That's what I
was wondering. Is that, uh, Mick
Drimald? McDreamy.
Our good friend Patrick.
Love your boy.
himself. So Jamie Kennedy's
would-be animator, his wife wants to get
pregnant with a kid, he does it because he's a
jerk, and he might
be fucking this dog.
We'll get there.
The dog finds
the mask. Alan Cumming plays
Loki. Whatever. It's a stupid movie.
You're about to hear the whole fucking thing, so congratulations.
I mean, there's
so many places to start with this.
I think we start with
what is it, Ben Stein narrating
the history of the mask.
Dude, sure. This movie has no respect for the audience because it's like, do you know what Loki and Odin are? Yes, we do. Because we know what anyone has a base idea of Norse mythology.
That you're talking about the masks. They know. Yeah. But what about the sons of the masks? That's the thing. That don't know Norse mythology yet. If you're trying to market this to kids and you have to try to in some way set up like who these gods are going to be.
Sure. Yeah, I get I get it. Drag in America's.
fucking rash, Ben Stein.
This is a guy.
Ben Stein? Yeah.
Who agreed to do anything mask
related. The one guy, he was
in the first movie, he was in the cartoon
and he was in
the son of the mask. I think
that was in his, I think the first contract
stipulated that. Whatever we do with this
franchise, Ben, you're in. But so
this is, this opening scene where he's
like, this is the history of Norse
mythology. This is what
this mask is. And what the fuck museum.
is this? It's like, it's a museum with a bunch
of replicas and
what, it's not, it's chiseled into it.
It's the American Institute of Bullshit.
Oh, okay. Like, I guess it's a
folklore museum which do exist, but
that's not what these people. Why is there
such a varied tour? There's like
ill billy's, like, oh man, I can't wait, go to museum.
Let's talk about that because Benstein
brings up that, you know, what
Loki's parameters are, you know,
that Loki can change shapes.
Wow. And he's even easy.
Clear eyes.
That's great when you've got to go to work in the morning, if you know what I mean.
Yeah, totally.
And he mentions that Loki has even been known to change shapes into a woman.
Yep.
Prompting one guy in this tour group to go,
A woman, man alive, lock up your sons and daughters around that twisted fruit cake.
Twisted fruit cake.
Whopty fuck screenplay.
Exactly, because Ben Stein's like, whatever, you know.
Because, like, we're supposed to think that that guy's a jerk, but you're still trying to get that joke.
You know what I mean?
You're still clearly making a joke there.
So, right away, this, this, woof, yikes, fruitcake.
In the year 2000 and fucking five, everybody.
Yeah, I mean, fruitcake was out.
It was out.
It was way out of the parameter.
But so you're advertising this movie for kids.
You've got this idiot explaining Norse mythology.
But then, in one of the most terror-inducing things, I've.
seen in a long time.
Alan Cumming, playing Loki.
Dressed as Magneto.
Right. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Can't forget that.
He's got these donning the Magneto hat and long jacket.
We have a future Charles, not them.
And he's just like, you know, like, stop making fun of my dad.
And he like cuts, he uses his magic powers to cut off Ben Stein's face because he's like,
that mask is a fake and cuts Benstein's face off and sticks it in the mask case.
And then, like, Insidious 3, which I just saw, you've got this person running around without a face on.
And he's just like, oh, no, I have vertigo, Ben Stein.
Yeah, it's like, get me out of this case.
What did you do to my face?
What's happening?
He's so calm about someone ripping his face off his body.
Cut to 15 minutes later when the cops are like, oh my God.
Call in Mulder.
You have to imagine once Loki leaves the vicinity.
of this museum. The magic
wears off and it's just a man with a
ripped off face. Yep. And the body
falls down dead and there's blood everywhere.
There is a closed casket.
Oh, yeah, absolutely. That's right after
this scene, closed casket. And that hillbilly
is just standing at the crime scene like, look
of that faceless fruit cake.
It would be great if rather than... I love
going to museums just to rag
out of. Like, what is
this guy's deal? It would be
kind of great if instead
of turning into the worst
a kiss
army member with
radioactive poisoning
which is what he looks like
as the mask
but instead of that
he pulls a Hannibal Lecter
puts Benstein's face
on his face
Oh yeah
He starts walking around
Yeah I think that
Yeah
What a twisted fruit kiss
Hey honey you want to go
To the tractor show today
No I want to go to the museum
They got a bunch of stuff
about Greek people
Hey why they were up to right
Hey why is that pain with store
I don't got Hulk in it
please sir
you've been banned from this museum
a bunch of times
fuck that y'all
I bought a season past
making fun of all these fruitcakes
in this here museum
got me a membership
oh man
African architecture
that's pretty fruitcake to me
don't touch African art
so
boy oh boy do I love
supporting not-for-profit
organizations
fruit cakes as far as the I can see
The African wing of this museum is looking out of the White House.
So, by the way, at this point, Loki has formed into, like, God, Loki to do all these powers.
Yeah.
Which he has all these mask powers without putting the mask on.
Right.
Because he's a God, I get it.
He's Loki.
But more scones.
And for what?
Loki did.
Why?
I don't know.
For hygiene.
No, I think the idea was, like, well, Loki's a trickster and he put this mask on earth to cause
some fucking mission.
Oh.
And he jacks off to it somewhere.
I think the difference is because
I think in the original they say that Loki was banished
into the mask. Oh, do they?
And for some reason, in this one,
he just has, like, his essence
or something. Is this
supposed to take place
11 years after that first movie?
Well, yeah, because he throws it in the river
and the water brings it to his shore.
It's supposed to, yeah.
What's crazy about this movie is
it cares about geography.
Okay, the first movie
started an edge city
this movie the mask floats down the
river from edge city to fringe
city and within fringe city
is where Jamie Kennedy's shitty
family lives
I don't understand
these are
it's a comic book property originally
so I guess they're adhering to that but I don't know
image comics dark horse dark horse
and this is what I don't get about the whole
franchise the mass comic books he's the
Joker yeah he's like a bad like he kills
millions of he's a like I
Oh, he's killing people?
Yeah, he's an assassin who got the mask and turned into a deranged serial killer.
Oh, he's dead pool.
Why aren't we having that movie?
Because it's a fucking Disney proper.
Well, no, a new line family, Jim Carrey movie.
The first movie was a little darker on the edges, right?
Yes.
You're dealing with the mafia.
You got Peter Green.
That's any time Peter Green shows up in a movie, he darkens it up a bit.
Yeah, but it's like a degrade darkening it up, though.
I mean, that guy as the main villain.
of the mask. That was always one of my
big problems with that movie. I think that movie's a
fucking snooze. There's not a lot
there. You know, it's a little bit
of nostalgia going on. Jim Carrey,
the physicality that he's putting, pulling off
in that movie is amazing. I'm not denying
that. Well, that's what I would say is the difference between
that movie and this movie is that that movie
they set it up. Jim Carrey is a schlub
in the beginning. And then the mask
lets out Jim Carrey as the
crazy physical comedy genius. You know why?
Because he's putting on the mask in that
movie. Jamie Kennedy, two scenes with
this mask. And he can't
pull it off. No, he can't. That's very
clear. And that voice he's got,
it's bad ADR
of him trying to do this like swab
Hey, how you doing?
It's fucking
horrendous. So we cut
to James, you know,
Alan Cumming ruined Ben Stein's
life, ends his life.
Wow. I'm dead.
I've been turned into a nightmare.
Don't get me start.
about creation.
Make Jimmy Kimmel do my eulogy.
Guaranteed Jimmy Kimmel does not speak to him anymore.
No, I don't think so.
We cut to Fringe City.
Yes, his dog, Jimmy Kennedy's dog who looks a lot like Jim Carrey's dog.
It's the same name.
No, it's not.
The first dog was Milo.
This one's Otis.
Oh, suicide.
Oh, God.
Fuck you, movie.
But the fact that we're doing another mask movie and you need to get a
get the exact same dog.
How about another type of dog
have a little fun?
What about a pug?
Oh, a pug would have been good.
A pug of the city.
Well, you know what, though?
Then that's a little too, M.I.B.
Sure.
No, go full Beethoven.
I'm sorry.
Oh, man.
Can you imagine?
An actual, like, big beast
that you actually have to deal with.
Oh, a St. Bernard get the mask, dude.
That's how Kujo happened.
You put that thing gets the mask on it.
It looks like one of those Ghostbuster dogs.
The Hulk dogs, you mean?
Yeah.
Those are the Hulk dogs.
The Hulk dogs from Angley's the Hulk?
Sure, yeah.
Remember that when a poodle gets beta waves or whatever, gamma waves?
Remember that when Angley directed the Hulk?
Remember also that footage of Angley, like, emotionally portraying the Hulk?
Oh, yeah, he mocapped himself, man.
He sure did.
Oh, God damn it, Hulk.
Oh, God damn it.
Look, he's destroying San Francisco.
I'm just going to bite into a power line right now.
God damn it.
That's my favorite Nick Nolte movie in any movie.
Any movie.
That move, he just chomps down into that thing.
Oh, God damn it.
And it's like, it's a cable as thick that they, like, run on the floor of the ocean.
No, I'm fucking starving.
I'm going to take a big hug out of that cable.
Well, I'll be honest with you.
I've bitten power lines several times in my life.
And I've never known that.
Nobody's ever tried to electrocute me.
Yeah, I think that's a little bit of a misnomer about biting into power lines.
Where's Eddie?
This is another 48 hours five, right?
we cut to
Jamie Kennedy and trailer Howard
we find out very quickly
that she really wants a baby
and is in the wrong relationship
yeah
like just literally break up
it should be called
divorce of the mask
Jamie Kennedy is having baby
nightmares
about her
her nether regions
is vomiting out
her birthing 19 and counting
literally
popping out kids at a dugar
as great is what we're talking
and they have fangs and stuff
yeah why are they little vampires
this is the start of way
too many instances of the
fish eye lens in this movie oh man
they got their money's worth for that lens rental
you when you when you bought it
in 1996 you thought that was going to be
big you might as well dust it off
you know it'll pay for itself just five
music videos and it'll be fine
I was going to say this movie looks like a bad
smash mouth video well no I mean
Buster Rimes used all the fish eye
lenses you needed. Let me just say, I know we just
made fun of Smash Mouth and Buster
Rhymes, and I know a lot of listeners hold
them to be high steam.
Sure. And it's okay if you want to
listen to that, all right? It's fine if you love
Busta Bust. It's great to love Bust
to Bust a Bust, it's not great to listen to Smash Mouth.
Yeah, get out of my fucking face.
Guys, I once saw Buster Rhymes
live.
What, under what circumstance?
The best circumstance, and this is so...
Did you go to a Rock the Bells Festival?
I went to a festival. I went to a festival
of sorts. Okay. This was 2002.
Wow. Okay. Okay. Here's your, here's the headliner. Yep.
David Bowie. Okay. I'm going for fucking David Bowie.
Sure. Right. Under him was Moby. Okay. And then further, further down the live. A couple acts below that.
Terry tickets was Buster Rives. But Buster Rhymes did his set, you know, did his thing.
Sure. He decided to, you know, like, how are you going to end your set? Make it the most memorable, magical evening, a night
someone could have.
Plug the role you have in Halloween Resurrection.
He might have done that. I don't know.
But he also went on this tirade about downloading music.
Oh, no.
And man, boy, did that make me...
Not care for him?
Yeah.
Did you purposely go home and pirate every Buster Rhymes album?
See, I wanted to, but I realized I would never want to listen to me.
I was wondering if he actually made a rap around not downloading music.
Because that would be really late.
No, no, no.
He just stopped the fucking show dead.
And just had a frank conversation
with 3,000 people in this stadium.
Wow.
That's something.
Did he invite Lars Alrick up?
Yeah, really.
I wish.
Oh, man.
So, this house they live in, by the way,
looks like the house from a Gushers commercial.
It does. It's a cartoon house.
Everything looks like the fucking Gushers commercial
and the Slim Jim ads.
Yeah.
Oh, son of the man.
No, the one with the guy with the plastic hair.
Oh, yeah.
I'm like this guy.
Yes.
That reminds me.
And I want to bring it up now because I know I'm going to forget later.
But Steve, you just made me think, I don't know if anyone will remember this.
So for in this room or around the world listening, there was a stand-up-ish guy that his act was he was made up to look like a Ken doll.
Does anyone remember this?
That was me.
no there was like i remember seeing it on like late night tv one time was it the band aqua no it wasn't
it was pre-aqua pre that music video and it was i mean it was the early 90s and it was a guy he had plastic
hair like a kendall he had very like stiff like facial expression max headroom no it wasn't
maxed room either it was a thing it may as well have been like my memory clouds it up to like mix it up with
the possible, like, late-night, like, QVC type thing?
I think you just got haunted or something.
I may have, dude.
I mean, I don't know.
But it's this memory I've had of this,
this Kendall-looking motherfucker doing what I remembered to be stand-up comedy.
I mean, it's that time you took peyote in the Mattel headquarters.
Right, right, right, right, right.
That's why they call it a dream house.
Anyway.
So, we, they meet some friends of theirs that have a whole bunch of rotten children.
And on the way back, she's driving.
and he's playing fucking Game Boy Advance.
And you know what?
That's Divorce Town.
You've got to be a good fucking co-pilot.
If somebody else is driving, be engaged, help out with the radio,
just playing your little Game Boy at a 30-something-year-old man.
Game Boy, falling asleep?
Yep.
While someone's driving you, any of that?
Oh, oh, steams my clams.
But he's playing this Game Boy, and she's like, I think,
you need to know it's very important to me
to have a child
and he's like uh-huh the other thing about
Wario is and I'm just like I fucking hate your guts
from seeing one of you in this movie
he's presented as you know
like a man child a baby man
of a complete baby man he's immature
and you'd think
God you'd think there would be a character journey
of some kind
that he'd learn to be a better man
through the use of the mask
but that doesn't happen
or you think he might be excited
about fucking his wife.
Maybe just maybe he'd be excited that, like, okay, yeah, we're trying for a kid.
But maybe the beginning part of that would excite you over goddamn Wario Adventure.
Well, you know what?
He's getting all a Wario's gold coins short up on his little Game Boy Advance record.
But it's so strange because, like, Jim Carrey was a lovable loser.
You know what I mean?
Stan Ipkiss is a lovable loser in that movie.
There's nothing.
And it's Jamie Kennedy's, I mean...
It's Jamie Kennedy, period.
That's a problem to begin with.
He's not a lead.
I've never liked a movie that he's ever been in more than 20 minutes.
I mean, I think this is the first movie I've seen that you would, like, qualify in that, like, handful of Jamie Kennedy movies.
It's a vehicle.
It's a Jamie Kennedy vehicle.
Because I didn't see Malibu's Most Wanted.
Nope.
Is there anything else?
I think handful was an exaggeration.
I think he had some direct-to-video, whatever.
Nonsense FAPU. Didn't he also do the...
I'm sorry, Eric just said,
National Lampoon presents Fart Fest,
which is a movie I would watch, by the way.
And I'm sure Jamie Kennedy would take that offer.
Dorm Days 2, colon, fart fest.
Can I put this out there?
If anyone at National Lampoon or Jamie Kennedy himself is listening,
let's get together on this.
I think we've stopped branding movies National Lampoons.
They're still putting movies out,
but we've learned that no one at the directed DVD store or whatever,
or really gives a flying
fuck
that's the thing
is like a kid today
trying to rent something
doesn't know what the fuck
that means
yeah exactly
well that's
we did the same thing
with American Pie
until like
young teens
forgot what that meant
they forgot about
those original movies
thankfully
I'm looking up
on the internet
ticker just to see
what we're doing
here
because I just
I really want to be sure
didn't he do
the heckler
documentary
oh the heck
oh yeah
so Steve you saw that movie
did you see that movie
I did not
Oh, it's a direct response to this film.
It's a documentary that starts off about actual hecklers, comedy club hecklers,
and the psychology they're in and how much they fuck up comedians.
It's almost like the aristocrats.
Like Lewis Black shows up and like, they're telling hellcloth stories.
And like, it's almost okay.
That sounds like something I'd like, but I know the turn.
In the middle of it, it turns into movie critics.
And it makes this comparison that movie critics are the same thing as hecklers.
They are not the same thing.
Because you're not.
The movie critic is not stopping a movie.
Exactly.
He's talking about it after the fact.
And it talks about, like, how hurtful they are to comedians and how hurtful, you know,
they're just, people are just trying to make money and blah, blah, blah.
And these people are, like, ruining their careers.
And, like, he confronts some people, too.
I do remember.
I watched the clip of him confronting the guy.
Oh, man.
That guy's a fucking straw man and a fucking phony.
It's ridiculous.
Why do you say that?
Because he's just, like, he, I mean, he's probably a real guy.
But, like, he found, he found.
Probably a real guy.
He found the weakest-willed person that ever to, like, do battle with.
Because this guy's, like, gets really intimidated by Jamie Kennedy for some reason.
And, like, Jamie Kennedy's like, why'd you say my performance was worse than Hitler?
Hitler killed a lot of people.
I just made some jokes.
And the guys, like, I don't know.
I thought it was funny at the time.
Oh, man.
I mean, that's just a bad critic calling fucking somebody Hitler from being a son of the mask.
Well, is it a critic or is it some fat guy on a message board?
Let's be honest here.
Hitler overcame a lot more than Jamie Kennedy.
Oh, yeah.
Another one, I'm looking, I mean, he's, he appears in a ton of things.
A lot of those contemporary spoof movies, for example.
But another one that is clearly him, 2007's kicking it old school.
Yeah, that's another one.
Which I think, yeah, it's like son of the mass kicking it old school.
Malibu's Most Wanted.
Oh, man.
Criterion can do a trilogy set.
Yep, pretty much.
So, yes, we, you know, he kind of leaves it with his wife, like, look, I'm not ready for a kid yet. And she's like, yeah, but that's kind of a problem for me. Talk to you later. I'm going to go play in my incredibly weird dog room. He's got a dog room. It's really crazy. I love dogs. I have a cat now and I'm a fucking loser about it. You can follow my, you are. You follow my Instagram post. You get it. That guy's a loser about his cat. I don't have a fucking room where I go in and I go away from my girlfriend and
be like goodbye, I've got to go play with my cat.
Yeah, I'm going to close this door
and me and the cat are going to have a good time.
Wait, honey, what are you doing
with our... It's my dog. Yeah,
yeah, exactly. Yeah, it's
oh yeah, big time.
You get the feeling that he had the dog
before they got married. Oh, absolutely.
You know, before he met her kind of a thing.
Meanwhile, she's just like,
I am going to do
some crazy shit
to you tonight. Yeah. And he's
like, uh-huh, Game Boy Advance with my
dog. And she's like, you don't understand. I am going to
rock your world. Our marriage.
On the very basis of our relationship will be changed forever. Wait. Are you actually
going to? Are you actually going to wear the Princess Peach costume?
Are you going to do it finally? Or the dog suit for fuck's sake. Yeah, totally. They got a
reservation at the Overlook Hotel. I imagine them just watching the scene in the
background while they're doing... Oh, man. Oh, man.
A marital aid.
A marital aid is what I'm saying.
Some couples have to watch pornography.
They watch the dog blowjob scene from The Shining.
And it's an adorable little Jack Russell.
Oh, it's the best, this little Otis.
It's a room that he painted with dog bones all over it.
There's all sorts of activities and shit.
I mean, this is...
I think, unless I'm remembering it wrong,
there's bunk beds in this room.
Bottom bunk for the dog, top bunk for the idiot.
So she's like...
Clearly frustrated about this, but there's no time because we have to also learn that he's a big loser at this animation factory.
What's amusement part?
I don't know what this facility is supposed to be.
I think it's what the Google offices look like.
I think this is Google.
These are the guys that are in charge making those stupid animations every special day.
It's a special day in history.
We've got to change the Google logo.
That started off as like, oh, it's Christmas.
Like, let's do a thing.
Oh, it's 4th of July.
Dude, that is a full-time job now.
Every ding-dong day, it's some scientist's birthday.
They definitely have a research going through.
Like, what is a fucking...
Is this a special day in Peru?
Okay, we'll do something for us.
Today, in Peruvian history, the game Tetris came out for the first time.
So we're making the...
Tetris game.
Yeah, we're going to make a Tetris game on Google now.
And you can move the G, so it looks like an O.
We have your little Peruvian flags, and you have to make a match.
It's Google.
I'm a billionaire.
So, like, his only real defense is, look, I want to make,
and at this point, like, so he's playing in this fucking creepy-ass dog room.
Yeah.
He realizes the dog has this mask.
He's like, that's a piece of garbage.
Let's put this away for later.
And she comes in and he's like, look, I just want to make cartoons.
That's my dream.
If I have a kid, I can't make cartoons.
And she's like, well, you're not doing that now.
Smash cut to him in a fucking turtle costume in a department store.
slash animation studio
slash amusement park
he's giving a tour
to people touring
an animation studio
like this open air
Google-esque office
but yeah
he's like one of the cartoon characters
that the animation studio makes
and he's giving like
who the fuck is touring a cartoon studio
I mean people do for like
cool money
I think well no security guards in Korea
right
they tour a lot of animation factories
yeah making sure nobody gets out
Yeah, the bayonets on their guns there.
But I just like, I don't even know.
It's because it's not like I can knock on the door of Pixar and be like, tour, please.
And then someone comes out dressed up as Wally like, there's a tour, follow me.
You know, that doesn't happen.
But also, the idea is even if that were true, right, that that being Wali would be some kind of a career path to becoming an animator.
like everybody's got to start somewhere
exactly like you aren't walking around
Disney World dressed up as Prince Charming
only to someday run the directed DVD
studio that's like maybe
some animators like teenage son
that's his first job
a lot of nephews
a lot of nephews and they're playing
tornado turtle or whatever the fuck else
tornado turtle I'm sorry
we have to stop the conversation because did a beer fall on the floor
no no oh all right I thought a beer fell
no just my notebook oh all right
Because if it was a beer falling, the casual way, you were like, no, never mind.
Let it go. Let it go.
So he's touring around.
We meet his pal, Cal Penn, who's like, oh, man, you know, Cal Penn, whose accent is up and down.
Oh, yeah, everywhere.
And I don't know if it's, it's clearly, like, Cal Penn just talks like an American dude.
Yeah, he has done a lot of, he has done a lot of movies where he does, like, an over-the-top Indian.
And Wilder, it's thick as fuck.
Oh, the Rise of Taj.
It's something else.
Yeah, we're just all big bang theorying all over that fucking movie.
Yeah, and but this movie, he is flip-flopping back and forth.
It's weird.
It's almost like he got two different directions each scene or something, because sometimes he's just totally normal house calpan.
And the other times he's like the rise of Taj.
And it's like, what are we, and his name is Jorge as well?
And it's like, well, what are we trying to say with this character?
His name is Jorge?
His name is Jorge.
It makes no fucking sense.
Oh, but it is pretty funny, though, said the screenwriter.
Because it makes no sense.
It's funny because it makes no sense.
It's one of those, it's funny because it's stupid.
This whole goddamn movie.
It's just, it's insulting.
It's like, that's just like, I guarantee in the screenplay,
Jorge, comma, ethnic, comma.
No, comma, intermittent ethnic voice.
Whatever it is.
And, you know, he's just like.
He's in a mocap suit.
He's in a mocap suit, because all of this is happening.
happening at once, apparently.
Yeah.
And they're all eating lunch together and like, oh,
Stephen Wright, who is the head of this editor?
Who's the Walt Disney of this video?
Oh, man. An animation god.
Yeah. Sure.
He's the Matt Gaining.
Oh, he's the Matt Graining. Yeah.
I mean, so he's sitting there, like,
eating amongst the plebes.
Yeah. And Cal Penn's like,
this is your one shot to go talk to him about possibly getting a cartoon show of your
on that you invented.
And you're just like, uh-huh.
So Jamie Kennedy goes up.
up, you know, to make this proposal and he's dressed as a turtle and he's like sweating and
fucking it up. And you're thinking it's like going to be a bust cut to like, so how did it go?
And it's just like, oh, well, it went pretty fine. He actually told me to come back with a better
idea soon and wants to hear from me. I actually kind of like that in the character is that
Stephen Wright is not like your stereotypical like bad boss.
Oh, fuck you. Or it just doesn't ignore. It just ignores the guy. Well, because it's Stephen Wright,
so you're not getting any kind of emotive response out of anything. It's sad that he's
sad that he's in this movie
he's a great stand up he's funny
brilliant brilliant comedian that's the weird
thing is he chucks his persona he's just
kind of in this which is unfortunate
yeah you're right he doesn't have the same
droopy dog delivery which is actually unfortunate
because he's really funny and fucking
baked as the guy
in the couch and he's just doing Stephen Wright
jokes but that is where that needs
to be relegated Steve to a
couch not a titan of
animation industry
how did he get there you don't get there you don't get
there with a personality like this. I want an
origin story.
A rise of that guy?
Side DVD release. Because this
by the way, shockingly,
Son of the Mask released theatrically.
I don't know. It's amazing.
Someone just set a boat of money
on fire. It was called the SS
Son of the Mask. Just to watch
it burn. That's a Viking funeral
for money. I think this movie was
produced by the Joker.
It might have been produced by Loki
to create mischief on the world.
Because I don't...
You think you know what the story is.
Like, all right, so it's about having a kid.
It's about rising in this animation studio.
Maybe he puts on the mask and something happened.
Because that's right.
In the original mask, Jim Carrey uses the persona of the mask to, like, further his career.
Jim Carrey, right?
Because he's like a reporter or something.
He works at a banker.
Oh, yes, that's right.
But he gets in bed with a reporter.
Yes.
Right.
And it's like the girl from wings.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, a little.
A little.
early 90s, Amy Yazbeck in that movie
ain't too bad. You got your
first screen appearance of Cameron
Diaz, if anybody could possibly care.
It was her best moment
probably. I would say, yeah.
No, fuck at a car. That's the one.
Oh, yeah. Oh, man. I still have not
seen the counselor. Is that the best part
of her career? If you do the counselor watch,
I've still not seen the counselor. I haven't
seen it either. You're not missing much, except for fucking the car.
I think you're missing quite a lot.
I'll tell you what, if you want a contemporary
Cameron Diaz low point,
And I even will say that I kind of like this movie.
Her in the Jamie Fox Annie.
Holy train wreck, that character.
Well, I think that she's good, actually.
I think that she's got range.
She's got range.
She could do comedy really well, I think.
Oh, she's a, I think she's a smart actress.
She just takes garbage.
Yeah, I think she's very risky.
Yeah, she does risky stuff, but like most of it is garbage.
Yes, but bad risks.
Does that car impregnate her in that?
movie? Yes. Is that how
Optimus Fy? Actually,
it's also known as Crash 2.
Talk about Herbie fully loaded.
God.
Whatever.
That's good.
So back to
Son of the Mazz. He goes home
and there's a Halloween party
and it's the big deal of the animation studio.
By the way, he's got a rival which means nothing
in this movie. It's not a character.
This guy, Alan, or whomever.
He was Chad?
Yeah.
Even worse than Allen.
I was like, oh man, Chad's going to rise up to the company faster than me.
Chad.
And the guy's like, hi.
And that's the end of it.
He's not in the movie anymore at all.
Why not just, I mean, I know you've burned, you're Jamie Kennedy.
I'm sure you've burned all the bridges.
But like, ask Matthew Liller to come in for five fucking minutes and play this Chad character.
So I remember that it's a thing.
When the Dax Shepherd was a little too big for that, actually.
05.
Yeah, he was kind of taken.
Actually, I think if you, they can't get too close,
Dax Shepard and Jamie Kennedy.
Oh, yeah, they might time cop them.
Yeah, same matter.
They're going to come into one big one.
Oh, you're totally right.
And then Frank Welker starts voicing him.
Man, I'd kill myself.
That is.
I mean, I don't know about the whole burning bridges thing
because at the end of the day,
Jamie Kennedy seems like a really nice guy.
Sure.
That just does the worst things you've ever Malibu's most wanted.
Like, you know.
But that heckler thing makes me wonder if he's,
Oh, that's a recommend for me. You got to watch.
Is it currently streaming on Netflix?
I think it might be.
Okay.
So goes home, his wife does not.
I want to go to this Halloween party because, A, they're in a huge fight because she wants to get pregnant and he doesn't.
Yes.
And he's like, yeah, but my boss is Halloween party.
And she's like, yeah, but go fuck your dog.
She also, it's one of those like, I've got a lot of big reports to file because she's a big something, something at a nothing, nothing.
Yes, we have no idea what her business is.
It's she will just be required to take a week-long trip to New York in a few minutes later in the movie, so...
Well, I mean, that's kind of the weird underlying thing is the emasculated, like him trying to get his manhood back.
Well, because she's a bitch wife, right? Like, she's a wet blanket wife.
Like, the whole movie is trying to circumvent her and her fucking designs.
But I don't think it acknowledges her that much to do that.
Do anything. Yeah, that's true. She just comes in, and I think she's a very logical character.
I don't think she's villainized.
She's too ignored to be villainous.
So it's like, hey man, you know, we got married.
Like, clearly we've talked about this.
At least at the time when we got married, you said you wanted to have a kid.
Yeah.
I want to have a kid now.
Like, let's talk.
Oh, I'm sorry, Wario's fucking Golden Palace, whatever, you know.
But she is very much just like, I'm not going to this Halloween party because I have like work to do.
You go, you have a good time.
And when you come back, by the way, nothing will be the same again.
Because the intercourse that we're going to have after this holiday.
Halloween party. We're going to make
a baby. Oh, you know, actually, I just
bought Otis a nice, a cool
little, one of those balls you could put
a little treat inside. I'd love
to watch him try and get that. I actually
just printed out a picture of Otis to put on my
face for later so that you're
all... Oh, man.
You're ready to go. And one for your face
too.
So he doesn't
have a costume because of some
reason or another. I think the dog ate it,
literally. Sure. There was a
thing like oh you could maybe you can go as a turtle yeah oh and then he would do that every day
it's sad so but but he's got this mask though and she's like honey why don't you just put this mask on
and get the fuck out of here and go to this party already lame he's like oh everybody every here's
the thing is everybody always goes all out yep for their Halloween car I mean this is like
Roseanne yeah like every season of Roseanne they went all out for the Halloween episode like
that's what this is it's a company going all out for Halloween I would
My old job, they did that.
A big Halloween party?
Dude, the floors of it and floors of beer and floors of people fucking dress it up.
Are they hiring?
I have since left the company.
Just for the Halloween party.
It sounds fucking good, man.
But apparently two guys got to a fist fight last year.
Oh, yeah!
That's what you want.
Yeah.
Oh, that's what you want.
Oh, man, was Pete Campbell beat?
Wait.
Yeah, I need to know what were they dressed at.
Was this a Freddy versus Jameson?
God, it would be great if it was.
No, no, intel on those costumes?
No, I don't know.
I wasn't there.
But, like, yeah, some companies do this.
It's a fun, like, blow off steam, you know, get everybody together.
It's a fun way to bond, et cetera, et cetera.
It seems like this is the thing, although there was a band for this, for Jamie Kennedy's, whatever.
Yes.
He gets there, he puts on the mask, he turns into the mask, and looks terrible.
Oh, man.
It's dog shit.
Why does he have hair?
Why does he need plastic hair?
How is this worse than the original, the mask, that came out 11 years ago?
I mean, from when they're making this.
Why would you, why would you give it hair?
Like, I'm sorry, that is one of my biggest questions.
Yeah, that kind of ruins it.
It's bald.
He's a bald dude.
He usually has a hat on.
Sometimes he doesn't.
Also, Jim Carrey had hair.
A big fucking popadour.
The guy had crazy hair at the time.
And then they fuck it when he puts the mask on, he's a bald guy.
And not for nothing.
Jamie Kennedy looks like he's been standing
in front of a jet engine this entire movie
His hair just looks like he got out of bed
The entire time
Yes
So it's like yeah
The contrast is take all that hair off
Yes
You mean you're doing the mask
Connect it back to the movie in some way
And his mask outfit is like a Justin Timberlake kind of thing
Yeah
Yeah it is
It's like an really open shirt
And a suit
And a suit and he goes in
And it's like hey everybody
hey, why you're leaving the party?
How about a musical number?
Well, the first toxic joke we get
is this security guy asks him for his ID.
Right.
And he pulls out an IV.
Oh, mercy.
I totally forgot about that.
Yeah, a whole, like, hospital setup, man.
What a horse shit joke.
Yeah.
And again, nobody's like, wait, how did you?
Are you some shitty magician?
Because please leave.
That's what, in both of these mask movies,
no one is ever like,
how the fuck is this person turning into a,
tornado. How are you bouncing
off the walls? Did you
immigrate from
here, from Chernobyl?
The question on
the table is, are you an alien?
Yeah. And if so, let's call up Mulder
and Scull. Yeah, and let's get them in here.
Or at this point, it's probably Reyes
and the other one, right? Doggett.
Yeah, dog it. Well, the show was off the end
at this point. Either way, someone showed up and
cutting them open.
But instead, and this is the case with both mask
movies. Every dude in the room is jealous
and every woman is horny as fuck.
That's right. Every man
wants to be him. Every woman wants to
be with him. Well, the funny thing is there's this
woman in like a sexy outfit.
Yeah. Oh yeah. And like he goes, hey
baby, you're not sexy enough for me yet.
And like, grabs her
and she turns into a tornado
and like, I mean, she's in a skippy outfit to begin with.
It's like a leather outfit. And it's just a little skimpier
afterwards and everyone goes,
Ah, go. But then he's like, actually.
never mind not sexy enough
and tosses her to Cal Penn
you're right I'm a monogamous man
here you go bro
I guess you own her now
and that's something right
this is an object that's a way to go
with this movie is he turns
into the mask he fuck some chick
at this party and then it's like
oh okay you don't want to
fuck your wife and have a kid with her
you know and that causes like marital
rift like that's something for the movie
to do
Maybe any fucking thing.
Ordinary people starring the mask.
Or what was that? What was that?
War the Roses?
War the Roses. The War of the Maskes?
Yeah. An epic divorce comedy?
Yeah. Sure. Why not?
You get Danny DeVito in this movie. I'm watching a lot happier.
Hey, guys. Absolutely. Mask becomes her.
So.
Mask versus Mask.
We get this musical number where we are singing Frankie Valley in the Four Seasons.
in like four different musical styles.
We're rapping it.
Because this is, you know, Jim Carrey
can do physical stuff, could do a lot of voices,
could do a lot of characters.
Yep. Jamie Kennedy kind of can't.
What he's sort of kind of well known for
is his musical parody ability.
Or Steve, conversely,
this ain't your mama's mask.
Absolutely right.
And that, from this Halloween party,
we're making the distinction of like,
this guy will not be tornadoing around fucking
with gangsters, he is here
to get the party started.
This whole scene is like, remember how fun
that scene of Cuban Pete was?
Yeah, you're totally right.
How about we do a way worse?
Nothing, buddy. But even that scene
had stakes to it. The cops were out
there to shoot everyone.
This is just like a fucking party
at an animation factory.
Also, something I will say
about the mask as like just in terms of effects.
The mask, in the
original movie like he's doing a whole bunch
of stuff like I remember the horn blowing up
the car and all that stuff
that's cool the
not really one the only thing
they do is the I thing
yes that was the
the one thing they took from
the original was like let's just
do that joke
a hundred thousand times
yeah and it'll be the same exact movie well the weird
thing is like they make it
they make a point of that Jim Carrey
in that movie is kind of a man child and loves cartoons
and that's why what he does is cartoonish
then why wouldn't the same thing be for Jamie Kennedy
because he loves cartoons also exactly
and like trying to actually play
up the cartoonish angst
and like they kind of do it with the kid
but like oh don't even we'll get
we're gonna get there and I want to throw up
but it's so yeah yeah yeah but it's not like
Roger Rabbit where it's just like
the kids doing like funny little cigar gags and shit like that
and I almost did this
it's so much worse
so we're dancing we're doing i love you baby and through like country western neel diamonds
yeah it's just everywhere you just want to throw up it makes him the life of the party and then he
instantly leaves he goes home and he fucks his wife while wearing the mask you like the mask
never had sex nope jim carries mask never had sex no as far as i know it was just a series of well-placed
Auga's. But that's about it. Like, he comes
home and he's like, hey, baby, I've got a
hard erection. I forget, does she
does say beforehand, like, we're going to have sex
tonight? She does say that or no? Yes, she says, well, she definitely
want, I don't think she's necessarily expecting it that
night. Yes, she definitely is, because
grabbing his crotch. She says, she says, here's what's going to happen.
Like, she, because she apologizes
that she can't make the Halloween party. Oh,
and she says, I have a lot of work to
I'm sorry, go to the party, have fun.
And when you come back,
our lives will be changed forever.
Like she says, like, let's come, you know, come home,
we'll get it on.
It'll be a great Saturday, you know.
And because this movie is written by an eight-year-old,
the next day she's pregnant.
Yes.
Which is crazy talk.
And it's not like times past
and it's bad editing, literally the next day.
She's like, geez, I was throwing up
and I went to the doctor and I'm pregnant
and there's a baby in there.
This all happened in 28 hours.
And I don't believe the pregnancy is advanced because it's a god baby inside of her either.
It's just...
I mean, you know that they, it's not advanced because he has a line about like,
I've been waiting to meet you for nine months.
Yes, exactly.
Dude, we get a sonogram scene and then they just do the baby in the belly.
They do the Cuban Pete in, of course, on the sonogram.
Listen, this baby has no frame of reference for what he's doing.
Thank you.
Thank you for bringing this up.
How can the thing that has no baby?
for anything. Make these obscure pop culture
references. Maybe Jamie Kennedy's wife was just watching the actual
map. Nope. Yeah, you know what?
Maybe.
So cut to the B and or A storyline. Because a lot of this movie now,
it's all about getting Jamie Kennedy off screen. Like literally, that was a
mandate from somebody. It's like, look, we bet, we bet wrong. Yep.
He's not going to be the mask of this whole movie. We're changing that.
and we're just going to have
a bunch of competing storylines to get him off screen.
And that's a big thing, right?
Because I had never seen this movie
until watching it for the show.
I was always under the impression
that somehow Jamie Kennedy
was the son of the mask.
He was the Stan Ipkis offspring.
Sure.
And son of was like a, you know, whatever.
Yeah, exactly.
Like we're making a sequel.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But this is like
he is literally the son of this demon thing.
if you bought a ticket which nobody was buying tickets for nothing with this movie but in the off chance
you were one of these people that was like holy shit mask too finally if you're buying a ticket
either as a fan of the mask or as a fan of jamy kennedy to see him as the mask
that sex scene is the last you see him as the mask until the last 10 minutes of this movie
we don't even get to see the sex scene thank god for that there's no cartoon fucking going on
disagree yeah you know what i was looking for some i
in the bedroom scene.
Dude, think about what it could do.
Oh, yeah. His mask penis?
At the very least, I wanted
a Kathleen Turner and Sam
Waterston and Serial Mom.
Does anybody else see Serial Mom?
Yes. Where they bag? The whole
fucking bed is like
jumping up in the air.
I don't remember a second of that movie.
Oh, okay, and then I'm just a pervert.
That cartoonish sex scene stuck in your head.
Or maybe a funny gag where like her
hair is blown all over the place and she's like
where did that come from and then she looks over
oh my god why are you green
just I mean anything like Cameron
Diaz then right have some stuff in there
something about yeah sure
why not well no here's my
question though so it's like hey I'm gonna rock
your world tonight yes is she on birth
control is she not on birth control
I think she's not because she wants to have a baby
but they didn't agree like they haven't like really
talked about what he thinks
that's fair and also as
I mean remember the mask
sperm. Well, yeah, it's going to go. That's
the thing. They can get through...
It's a home run every time, I guess. Yeah, they can't
be stopped. Exactly. Like,
whether it's pills or some sheepskin
nothings, you know, like,
you're busting through whatever it is.
You're just doing it. Which, by the way, just because
it was marked, I mean, it was clearly
marketed to kids. Yeah. There wasn't
four kids, but it was certainly marketed
to kids. Right. And you have these fucking
CGI mask spurs.
Oh, yeah. Just yimiamin.
Wait, they have masked sperm?
You didn't see the scene?
Wait, what?
There's mask,
sperms.
Wait, I thought you were positing
that you wanted to see masks.
No, no, no, no.
Maybe I saw the director's cut.
Shut the flying fuck up.
The director's cut of this movie?
Explain what you're talking about.
There's a scene.
They go, like, when they're having sex,
like they go into a little, like, a fish eye thing,
and they're like, the sperms.
And you go inside of the woman.
What?
No, you don't, really?
Yes.
It's like, look, who's talking?
Yes.
Wow.
There's no alternate versions listed on IMDB.
Are you sure you weren't smoking weed?
I have my computer right here and I can pull it up right now.
You know what?
Ladies and gentlemen, we were pausing the recording.
He's getting this out because the three of us have no idea what he's talking about.
Ladies and gentlemen, some new evidence has come to light.
I have white hair now.
What the hell was that?
Yeah, it happens.
Apparently this was a deleted scene.
It was in the cut I saw.
So in the cut that we saw that Andrew, Eric, and I saw separately.
It's just he comes through with, honey, I'm home, and he.
He lays in bed, it's totally silhouette, and we cut to the next morning and we know what happened.
Right.
And Chris's cut.
Chris's cut.
They like zoom in on like a petri dish of sperm.
It's like CSI shit.
It goes right to her belly.
And then goes into her belly.
And there's a bunch of normal sperms.
And then like the three stooges of mask sperms.
By the way, the mask is kind of not shooting that strong.
Huh?
There's only three of them in there.
But they, I mean, they're like, well.
Hollow point. They're like hollow point sperm.
They're more money.
And they came out of his face.
It's true. Right? Because it would
have traveled from his face. Yeah.
This is unbelievable. Three mask-esque sperm.
Is his dick green? Here's the question. Because of the mask, as you know, it's just a mask.
His face is green. Everything else is. Your hands are still normal.
His dick is gang green.
Well, he can, I will say, considering what he does with his leg in the first scene of after he
He can elongate
his little Reed Richards
That could definitely happen.
So it's a
Three Stooges bit with like
Let me in that chowderhead
And there's this three sperm
Fighting to get inside this fucking egg
And it's disgusting
And they ram right into it
And that thing lights up green
Oh
Mercy me
This is this should not exist
This is like looking at the Ark of the Covenant
Steve's face melt it off
I can't
That's unbelievable
So, yeah, so she comes home the next day.
She's pregnant.
Whoopty fuck.
And he's like freaking out, you know.
And then we just kind of cut to like...
Oh, by the way, he was promoted
because his performance at the Halloween party
was so good.
Yep.
This has potential.
Oh, you probably won't have great animation ideas
if you can come to a Halloween party like that.
Well, I think the pitch is like
that character is the cartoon.
This could be a franchise.
character, yeah. But then it's totally not
that. Like, later he's pitching like
all sorts of things that aren't. Well, that's after he blows it.
Oh, right. Yeah, he does blow it.
That could sustain a whole season
of television.
We cut to Alan coming on a
beach and
fucking Bob Hoskins.
Whatever.
Dup. Pacing himself.
Oh, done up as Odin.
Yeah, he's got one eye, so they
got that part right.
He looks like he just woke
from doing a stint on fucking time bandits.
Like he was in time bandits and fell asleep for 30 years and they woke him up to do this.
I mean, this is, you know, he just, what they, how they introduce Odin in this movie is like he, the camera will zoom in on a character's mouth hole or an eyeball or whatever.
And once we get extreme enough, we then shoot back out there.
the other end with him going,
Loki!
And it's just Bob Hoskins.
My son was born of the mask.
Just looking like a big idiot in this costume.
Where's my mask, Loki?
Why am I from New York if I'm a North God?
Loki, I need that mask because I'm taking Maria to WrestleMania.
Loki, I only have four lines.
And one of them is give me the mask.
It's outrageous.
This fucking casting.
Why, and also Alan Cumming is doing his normal flat American accent, obviously Scottish.
Why do they both need to be American?
What is that about?
I think it's because they couldn't come to a middle ground on their, like, European accent.
Here's the thing, unless you are luckily enough, Stellant Scarsguard and are accurate,
and Lars von Trier as Loki and Odin, which that's a movie I want.
Oh, yeah.
I think if you actually made a documentary about the tumultuous,
relationship between Lars von
Trier and Stellan Scarsgard
it would be called Loki and Odin
Colin
figure it out well I mean
if you get Venture in this costume that Bob
Hoskins has to fucking wedge himself
into oh man and a lot
most of this movie is Bob Hoskins
just screaming in front
of a camera because he's in this scene
he's appearing in the clouds
closet oh yeah he's in a janitor's closet with
three green boxes around him so they put him
anywhere we do your one shot
of Asgard or whatever, and it's like
an asteroid with a bunch of dead dinosaur
bones on it? Yeah, that looks really
stupid, too. It's a dinosaur
graveyard. I killed the dinosaurs, Loki.
I got rid of Ed Gisselba. He was asking for too much.
Man, and I thought Anthony
Hopkins was slumming it in that Marvel movie
or two. No way. No, no. No way. That's that regal grandeur.
He's got Bob Hoskins. At least he's getting the fuck
up here. At least he's got a gold
eye patch. He doesn't look like a degenerate
on the bus with a crusted over...
You're so right.
If I saw this Odin walk under the New York City bus,
I'd be like, oh, yeah, that makes sense.
I don't want him to sit next to me.
He looks like the loser of a bum fight.
I'm the god of all Norse mythology.
Yeah, sure you are.
Monkey!
Yeah, exactly.
Oh, man, this homeless guy was harassed me
in the fucking Port Authority bathroom.
I lost this eye in a bomb fight.
a raven packed out my eyes sure it did old man were you wrestling a hamburger away from it
I killed the last hamburger
replaced him with a model
so loki is tasked to find the mask
which if he has he has all these magical powers
but he can't like know where this is instinctually this is a very frustrating
thing because you're right. Also, Anthony Hopkins
as Odin knows where the mask is. No, you mean Bill
Bill, uh, oh my God, Bob Hoskins. Bob Hoskins knows where the
mask is and Alan Cumming is even like, father, you know where
this is. Just let me know. And he's like, no, Loki. This is something you's got
to do all by yourself because I got a prep to get down to WrestleMania. And this
Hulkomania t-shirt ain't kind of irons itself. Renee Russo's been on my
back all day.
Oh, God, so you just get Alan coming,
pretending to be door-to-door salesmen,
plumbers,
he pulls a looper.
He looks up the fucking birth date of all these kids
who were born on this day,
and he's like, I got to kill him all.
Dude, he's ringing the doorbell,
and he's going, Sarkana.
Yes.
Well, I don't think he's killing the kids.
He might be killing the parents, though.
Yeah, oh, for sure.
Oh, they're getting trapped in some sort of magical entanglement.
One of them, yeah, he's traveling sales.
man he sucks a woman up into a vacuum cleaner
that's dead that's death yeah she's just
straight dead just a fucking bag of
coming out like something from freaked
one of us
and then she just you know I mean
then Alan coming just like hangs out
the kid and it's like oh be the one
and it's like it doesn't do anything
he's like do something crazy
yeah it doesn't something like the mask does
and it's like you would know
wouldn't you know if could you smell it
or something there's magic in the
room, you know, like, something.
Well, there was magic in the room when
they were filming this movie. I'll tell you that.
I was going to say, that's what they say when we
walk into a place. Oh, there's just magic in the room.
Speaking of movie magic.
The baby is born. He immediately turns
to be five and a half years old.
This kid is old.
Yeah. Yeah. And like, Jamie
Kennedy is, you know, he's
progressing in Stephen Wright's
fucking pyramid scheme.
The feds
haven't found me yet.
get a nice, really lame
montage of, man, when you have a
baby, you just can't sleep.
Oh, Jesus. We're just
going through it. And
Trailer Howard is like, look, I got to go away
to New York for no good reason.
I'm going to leave you with our kid
because it's our kid and you're the father and that's how
that shit works. And really
it's very clear she's making all the
money in the relationship, right? It's
incredibly clear. He's
a dude who dresses up
like a turtle to give
tours of an animation
he's a classic movie loser
yes and you know you're thinking like
is he going to overcome this is that
animation deal going to happen
and meanwhile nobody could
give less of a cold fuck
what happens to this character but also
like why not give him like a normal
office job like
in history of violence fucking Vigo Mortensen
has a diner job
to balance out the lawyer
wife he has
like that's enough like he's
this is like something again
a nephew does but it's not
even as if this character
is
intelligent enough to be that
shitty about being upset that his wife
is the breadwinner no he's just
like I'm gonna play Game Boy and write my
dumb cartoons all day and ignore you
because you're a woman you know she has to go out of
town for a week or whatever and he has to watch
the baby but he's got that big
network pitch for his cartoon right
he has to do the pitch for which
Stephen Wright's like okay
talk to you later like he doesn't have notes he's not like i want daily drawings i want daily meetings i want
to know what our pitch is right what's our pitch i need i need assistant editor and animators around
oh of course to you yeah it's just like so here's your chance he's an animation god he should be
able to like even if that pitch goes sour you should be able to spin some don draper gold or
something exactly but like imagine a chocolate buy i grew up in a horror house
tears.
God, I need that in this movie.
So a lot of this is him working on this pitch
and the baby just starts being the mask, basically.
It starts doing some stuff.
We take some time off as a movie, which is nice.
Yep.
To show the Michigan J. Frog comic cartoon.
Twice in this movie, you're forcing me to watch better cartoons
with the Looney Tunes Michigan J. Frog bit.
He's watching the Flintstone.
at one point, because he also starts emulating
Bam Bam. Well, he gets, from the
Michigan J. Frog thing, you get a nice
little bubble above his head. Thought bubbles.
Thought bubbles. His character's having a thought
bubble. And he realizes
he can make his dad look crazy
because I guess it's clear that he likes
the mother more or something.
He likes, yeah, he likes the mother more. He thinks
the dad's a doofus. He also
gleans that like the dad likes
the dog more. Yeah.
So it's like, yeah, a lot more than everybody.
The baby, rightly so. The son of the
mask is like fuck this clown
but this is when we start getting some
real bad CGI with this baby and it's
creepy and it's gross
because it's just good enough to gross me
out I actually it's not like oh I'm
watching a bad cartoon like the fucking
alley McBeal dancing baby in
in my notes I actually wrote is this a horror
movie because of what's
going on with this kid there were a couple of times
I was shocked at what I'm watching
because the baby turns the exorcist
the head turns into Woody Woodpecker
I freaked the fuck out
I was like, what the fuck was that?
The baby, right after the baby has done doing the,
Hello, my baby, the Michigan is J. Frog.
Which is gross.
And terrifying on its own.
It comes right up in front of the camera,
that goddamn animorphic lenses right there.
And the head turns into Woody the Woodpecker,
and we get a Woody laugh.
This fucking baby.
It's disgusting.
I was terrified.
And also the sounds editing and stuff in this movie is terrible.
Well, the editing period is fucking horrendous.
It's like he's just playing a clip when he's supposed to be singing this stuff.
Yes, exactly.
Like, I hear like the background noise of when the real singer sang it.
Oh, is that my tea?
Hello, my honey.
Just like hire someone to sing it or do, I don't know.
You know who I might want to be in this movie?
Yep.
Frank Welker.
Absolutely.
Let's get the master in here.
The dark master.
You know what?
Son of the master.
you can't afford me, said Frank Welker.
I got $60,000 to voice a dog in space jam.
This is like a dire situation.
This is when you need a Welker.
You need to welker that up a bit.
It's crazy.
Can you afford a Jim Welker, his brother?
Noted football player Wes Welker.
He might be part of the clan.
Lou Welker.
So, yeah, it's a bunch of gross stuff.
he's doing it. We are just playing out
the Michigan. We're cutting between two cartoons
at this point. The middle of this movie is
he's playing Michigan J. Frog
with his father and the dog
who has found the mask and
knows how to kill the baby for some
well because he feels neglected because he's been
like loved. Because he hasn't been fucked in that room
lately.
I mean, right? That's what we're telling you.
I mean, he hasn't been a while since
Jamie Kennedy took the top bunk.
Yeah. I mean, but the weird
thing is like
That, when the dog turned into the mask in the first movie, it was a big applause moment.
I was like, woo, the dog's a mask now!
For like half a minute in that first movie.
It's a throwaway joke.
You know what I mean?
This is a crucial plot point that this dog multiple times is putting on the mask in this movie.
More than three minutes screen time.
Yes.
10 to 12 in a pretty short movie.
Yes, the dog wearing the mask is a central character.
And he basically, it turns into a Tom and Jerry.
bit. So we're doing Tom and Jerry versus
Michigan J. Frog for the middle
of this movie and Jamie Kennedy is nowhere
to be found. No. It's just
gross computer animation. Computer
animated antics and I want to
throw up the entire time.
I don't know what's worse. The baby or the dog.
I think the baby because it's like
they're trying to make it look realistic
but that's actually
the wrong way to go with it.
Yes. If you're going to just turn it into
a cartoon, frankly. The whole fucking
thing. I agree. And there's one point
The dog's eyes fall out, which is kind of a living nightmare.
That is sheer terror.
Shear terror.
These dead dog eye sockets just looking at you.
And I understand I'm bringing reason into an unreasonable situation.
If you're, clearly you're rich, look at this fucking house and, you know, your wife's doing business things.
Yeah, she's a business.
Hire a nanny.
Or, unless they're all dead, ask one of the grandparents.
Right, yeah.
And you don't say that, so I assume you all have parents.
So let them have some time with kids.
I could use an old codger freaking out these baby.
You need Ray Walson across the street to be like, what the fuck's happening?
There's an old lady neighbor.
Oh, yeah, that's true.
Who comes to nothing.
It's kind of like the neighbor from Babaduke, actually.
Yeah, she got this.
Loki's going house to fucking house.
And I guess killing people.
Hopefully.
Fingers crossed, he's taken lives.
finally comes to Jamie Kennedy's house after
eight minutes of an animation interlude.
There's a lot of, we're just
turning to straight cartoon
in this movie. Yep. For no
reason. Including the ending. And like
Jamie Kennedy is going crazy
in quotation marks, which again he doesn't pull off
because he's not, he's
like trying to be panicked and like
antic, I guess, or
manic? Manic is the word of movie movie.
Yeah, but he just comes off like every other
scenes starring Jamie Kennedy.
Which is to say his hair's
messed up and he's in a very
nasally tone yelling at someone
Alan Cumman comes to his house
finally as a UPS guy
and he's got
the son of the mask in his hands like
are you the son of the mask? Are you the son of the mask?
And it's a baby because the baby can turn
it on and off. Yep. And he's just like
well I have no mythical way to know
whether or not you are so I guess you're not
maybe they were all sons of the mask. Who knows?
You don't have like a Norse metal
detector that you're just like that's some
of mine. Loki. Lokey.
look harder.
I mean, don't you think that kid
could be the mask?
You're breaking my boroughs here,
Loki. How many
feet tans does that child have?
If you
don't get that mask back to me,
I got nothing aware to support
mankind at WrestleMania.
So, just
when Alan Cummings ready to pull away,
Jamie Kennedy's like,
I got to take this kid to the doctor
or the office or whatever.
Or an exorcist.
They get in the car and he's like, something, something.
It's like the exorcist.
And this baby who somehow has knowledge of the P-Soup scene and the Exorcist
turns its little stupid computer head around and vomits all over this car.
But it's like neon green.
Oh, it's mask-gak.
It's Nickelodeon.
It's getting the deluge.
Oh, this is where the Gak is from or whatever.
Is that what do they call that stuff?
Gack.
Oh, yeah.
And Loki, who's in his car.
Which is how he gets from place to place.
Yep.
Uh-huh.
Not flying or just teleporting like any God would.
I appreciate that Loki buys American.
Sure.
He's not a Toyota man.
I get it.
It's before he pulls out.
He's like, oh, wait, I do think now maybe that baby might be the son of the mask.
Right.
So we like follow around for a little.
I mean, there's a confrontation in an alley at some point, which is silly.
Yeah, with the baby smushing Loki with two dumpsters.
Oh, that's, well, because that's the thing.
is like, all of a sudden, for no reason in this movie,
this baby stops hating Jamie Kennedy
and is like, I'm going to protect him
from my crazy Uncle Loki or whatever.
And yeah, the baby turns itself into his shield
and gets fire blasted.
That's kind of terrifying.
And Bob Hoskins is furious about what's going on.
He's possessing all sorts of people
to try to interfere now.
Oh, that's right.
He possesses Jamie, right?
He possesses Jerry Minor at one point
who's working in some, like, novelty store.
A mask shopkeeper.
But here's the thing.
Are Norse God, where is Thor in this movie?
Are all the Norse gods roaming the earth?
Or is this like the last hurrah?
It's like, we're turning the tables up, Loki.
Well, I think the...
Get that mask back up to Asgard.
It sounds like all the North Scots are like, like, Loki, not Loki.
Odin's like, dude, we had our time on Earth.
We got to go.
There's stopping to believe it.
So get your fucking mask.
We're packing it in with the rest of this stuff.
and we're going to Mars.
Mars.
It sounds like.
It sounds like he's like,
get all your belongings that you left on Earth.
We're leaving this fucking place.
I thought there'd be more people up here on Mars.
It's like, it's like a kid
and you're trying to leave a hotel.
It's like, did you get your Game Boy?
Like, no, I left it upstairs.
Well, go up there and find it.
I'm not going to help you.
You should check under the bed.
Because once we leave North Carolina,
we're going back to New York.
York.
So the wife comes back from a business trip, and the baby has been kidnapped at this point.
He's already lost his job.
Yep.
Oh, right.
Yeah, that happened.
Because, like, the whole week, he's, like, trying to draw animation, which is really time-consuming, and you can't do with a baby.
And you also can't do by yourself, no.
Well, my favorite thing is that, and it goes back to the Chad conundrums.
Right, because, yeah, Stephen Wright was going to pass it off to.
Steve Wright's like, hey, do you need some help?
help. We've got Chad here. But that's the whole thing. I can't let Chad work on it because
Chad's going to take credit for it. But here's your creator of the fucking thing. Well, that's
one thing. But B, it's not like Chad is seen constantly like, oh man, I'm going to get his
scheme. No, it's just a dude who's like, I'll help out. It's like, hey, man, I'll help. I'm
happy to help. Chad is the good guy. Exactly. I think he's the hero of the fucking movie.
Jamie Kennedy's the bad guy. And he goes and he makes him like bullshit presentation and gets
fired. And of course, like, yeah, again, like, Stephen and I'd be like, hey, before we get that
presentation, want to sit down and do it for me? Like, real quick. Can I see it before we do it
for the network? Exactly right. Oh, you have nothing? All right, I'll tell them how I was raised
in a horace. I'll go back to that well again. Cry over that goddamn candy bar to launch
a third cartoon. Don't worry. I'm just going to pass this, you know, just pitch this to a guy named
Matthew Viner. What would be fine? The carousel. It's where all your life's dreams.
come true. Remember
me with my young kids?
Here's me doing stand-up in Oklahoma.
Here's me in Bob Kent Goldthwaite
opening up a planet Hollywood.
Here's my voice in Reservoir
Dog. It's the first time
I met Louis C.K.
That's just it.
The carousel is all of our lives.
There's nostalgia.
It keeps spinning.
Life.
My first comedy's
Central special
This is my first
actual deep dish pizza in Chicago
This is when I was on
Comics Unleashed with Brian Allen
That was fun
We hit a lot of important
Hot Button issues in that
episode
So Bob Hoskins is pissed
All right Loki I'm going to take away your powers
For one and a half scenes
And he does
And then like
He goes to
Loki goes to the kids' room
and makes some invocation
casts a spell, yeah.
And gets Bob Hoskins back
and he's like, Dad, look how good I am.
Please give me my powers back.
All right, I'll give you one hour, Roger.
So he's got an hour to get
like the son of the mask and
find the mask. He doesn't
want the baby really. Like he has to get the
mask back. Yeah, exactly. He used the
baby's leverage essentially. Which, and
also if anyone was wondering,
mask is buried out in the dog's dog house.
Because the mask means nothing in this movie.
Yes.
It's all about the son of the mask.
Right.
As the title would suggest, I guess.
Loki immediately goes to the baby, and then he radios in dad again.
And he's like, give me back my powers.
And Bob Hoskins is like, okay, Loki, I was so hard on you before.
Like, he is sort of the quintessential, like, pussy parent.
Yeah.
Like, just bend.
He's like the homer bending to Bart all the time.
All right, boy.
You won't be grounded this time, kind of a thing.
But one great thing that happens there is Loki gets his powers back.
Yep.
He's in the family's house and the baby's room.
And that older lady down the street is all getting.
Being nosy.
Yeah, nosy.
So he turns her head into a giant nose.
Terrify.
Holy God, this is terrifying.
And then she sneezes.
The whole lawn gets a booger bath.
It's disgusting.
Which also reminds me, by the way,
we left out, there's one point where
Jamie Kennedy, in the
fatherly montage of being, when
the wife's away, the boys will play,
is drinking his own son's piss
because he's getting douched with like five streams of urine.
A fountain. A fountain of piss.
Does this kid have multiple dicks?
Because it's multiple streams of, like, yes.
You've got to go to a urologist.
You have to go to a pediatric urologist.
All right, everybody.
I think he's got like, I think he's got eight dicks down there.
He's like the Vishnu of cack.
But then, like, he gets a super-soaker dick and, like...
Oh, yeah, they all merge.
It's a blasts him away.
It's disgusting.
It's like a water can.
It's gnarly.
At some point, also in the film...
Loki, your son's pissing on Jamie Kennedy.
You want to get down there, please?
Also, at some point, Loki, like, eats someone's fart in this movie.
Well, that happens later.
Oh, is it later?
Yeah, he eats the masks for it.
So pardon me.
He steals the baby.
He dresses up like the wife to like say, hey, you know, he like tries to trick him into like giving him the mask.
Having sex again.
He doesn't.
So when the wife, he steals the baby.
And when the wife comes home, Jamie Kennedy abuses this woman to a point.
Throwing her all over the place.
And she's like, you know, it's the girlfriend from dirty work.
You know, she's a small woman.
He's just fucking chokeslamming her.
And I'm like, whoa.
Not the movie I wanted to watch.
It's so weird.
Yes.
But he beats the shit out of her.
And she's like, wait, I'm not a Norse God.
And he's like, oh, okay.
Yeah, he's like, oh, I'm sorry.
I was punching you in the face then.
Oh, weird.
And she's just like, oh, whatever.
Their baby's kidnapped.
So they have to go.
He's like, oh, I know where the mask is.
Otis has it.
And Otis, of course, he's like, oh, yeah, there's a really sexy dog that he likes.
Like, oh, no, is this dog's sex life?
It's disgusting.
Oh, I know that my dog,
as the mask would be at this other dog's house
trying to rail it.
Let's go to where this other dog lives.
He's been laying some seeds with this dog.
Yeah.
Over the years.
He's been playing the long game with this.
Now it's time for it to happen.
I think he's called Jamie Kennedy Wilder running
is like, yeah, he knows this sexy little piece
on, you know, whatever avenue or whatever.
Like, it's gross.
Jesus Christ.
And that goes back.
I mean, that's like the days of Jim Belushi
getting Jerry Lee laid.
Yes.
Oh, don't you find that hot piece?
pooch there or what? Oh man, her genitals are getting pretty hot for you there. Oh, Jerry Lee,
take a whiff of that. God. Damn it. And like the dog has made some romantic dog date. It's like,
whatever. Just fuck. Like, dogs don't have dates. They fuck. Even if you are the masked dog,
you would just fuck. But we're referencing Lady in the Tramp because we love talking about cartoons that are
better than us. Speaking of that, we haven't talked about it really quick.
quickly, his name, Jamie Kennedy's name
is Tim Avery in this movie and I want to
throw up. Oh, yeah. Because it's
Tex Avery, which is where, you know, where all those
Oh! Oh, yeah, I know, right, Chris?
Oh, weird, mask. Oh, that's
awful.
So this is sacrilegious to more
than just the Norse.
And like, that
has to be a line item of trivia on the
IMDB. Like, I want to be like, no,
that's not useful. That's stupid.
Yeah, there's no selection on
IMDB like was this useful it's like yes or no not like this is the dumbest thing
like everyone knew like on the iTunes like was this review helpful yes or no was this fucking fact
useful absolutely not so he he takes the dog the mask off the dog they go to Loki who
they're playing this weird twister game it's gross it's like mask like twister for the mask
people where we can stretch our limbs all over the place
put our ears on things
and then the baby
tickles him with his ear
yeah the ear just
starts pulling
out of the head it's disgusting
at this point Loki says oh you're cool
I want to hang out with you baby and maybe
we'll be best pals right right right
and then he turns back into Super Loki
which is stupid and then Jamie
Kennedy's putting the mask on and
like whatever they have a
mask fight in a boxing ring
yes we're in a gymnasium where we're just going to
mask box for some reason.
This is what he farts at Loki's mouth
and Loki's like, ew.
He's like, oh, I'm eating a fart, Jamie Kennedy.
Someone got paid a million dollars
for this movie.
Eating fucking mask farts.
I would think a million dollars went to anybody
on this movie.
You don't think anyone got paid over million?
I think you probably spent
over a million dollars making it.
I don't think a million dollars
went to any single part of it.
No, Jamie Kennedy got like two or three million bucks.
Are you fucking...
Really? Is that, was that an heckler?
You know, you shouldn't call me Hitler because I made $2 million.
Hitler never made that much.
So, yeah, whatever.
I mean, the Norse god of mischief eats a fart.
And then it boils down to much like trying to get a dog to decide.
Like, it's allegiance.
It's like, come on, come to me.
Come to your father.
No, come to Uncle Loki, blah, blah, blah.
And then, of course, Jamie Kennedy rips off the mask.
And he's like, I'm your dad.
Come to me.
And the baby picks him, of course.
And then fucking Bob Hoskin come down.
We show us up.
We do.
And we've got a weird stand in where like, because he's Odin and he can't be short little Bob Hoskins.
So like there must be some dude like Kevin Nash.
They like, they super post his face on there because like he's tall, right?
Like yeah.
As tall as Alan Cumming, which he absolutely isn't.
I think it was just Nash put Hoskins on his shoulders.
And you just dress up the whole thing.
Well, he's wearing a bunch of Game of Thrones garbs, so you can't see who's like...
You can hide Nash under that.
Exactly.
Just like...
And he's like, all right, Loki, you failed.
You didn't get me the mask.
So now I'm taking your powers forever.
And intervenes Jamie Kennedy as the newly donned father of the year.
Yeah.
And he's like, it's your job to be a good father.
And your son loves you and just come together and just here's the mask everybody.
Whatever.
It didn't matter.
Even though I almost killed my child, well, I would say at least three dozen times.
Is anybody hungry for another fart?
Let's just gnaw on a part together.
Get your knives and forks out for the next fart.
You should let Loki die or whatever.
Sure.
Or like, here's the thing, Bob Hoskins, you're such a great fucking all father, right?
You wouldn't it be more troublesome for like the lives of,
mortals to have this fucking super
energy being that
that is the son of the mask. Yeah.
Then just this mask causing mischief
wouldn't he be like, oh, Loki, by the way,
I got to kill that kid. There has
to be something about like...
Or a depowering. Yeah. We're always
checking in on you.
But yeah, if he can remove
Loki's power, Bing, Bang, Boom.
Now your baby's just a normal
baby. Well, that's the... It's like, why...
Finally a baby I can take with me
to WrestleMania.
I mean, like, why can it be a, and mother to me, seen?
Like, I kind of was waiting for that.
He tries to steal this baby.
He's like, I'm fucking tired of you, Alan, coming.
Your spirit is going into this baby.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, why not?
But that doesn't happen.
Loki and Odin kiss and makeup, and they go back to Asgard.
For what?
They just go play with dinosaur bones.
I guess.
There's a new
T-Rex
femur I want to show you as Loki.
Real great addition
to a dino graveyard
we live in. We have to colonize
an alternate reality.
You can see me and
Loki in our new sequel
Son of the Mask's
Ghosts of Mars.
Starring Ice Cube.
A store.
ice cube would make a pretty good door
I'd buy it
I don't go for that one
he's worthy to hold a hammer
so
Jimmy Kennedy
now comes up with an idea
to do a dog v. baby
cartoon
and I'm laughing my nuts off
the whole time
and we finally got an actual
real cartoon in this thing
and Stephen Wright loves it
hey I think that's a really
brilliant idea
what a breakthrough
hey Tim Avery
that sounds a lot like
tech savory
and actually this idea
is very much like those Tom and Jerry cartoons
without the cat.
Hey, Auga.
As Kay Billy's
Supersounds of the 70s
keep on trucking.
The old green bag.
So he's
an ultra success.
Sure. He's the next Warner brother.
He's the newest Warner brother.
Welcome to the fold.
Yeah.
And they're just sitting at home.
He realizes he doesn't hate his son's
That's nice.
Yeah, he accepts his clear lifelong disability as the son of the mask.
Wait till this kid gets to grade school.
Dude, wait till this kid hits puberty.
Oh, yeah.
Hell on earth.
You know what I'd be saying if I was Jamie Kennedy?
Wait till this kid hits the foster home.
Because there's no the fuck way I'm dealing with that.
No, you've got to cobble pot this kid.
You put him in a little cage and put him down to let penguins raise him.
Yeah.
And we're sitting at home and they're watching the cartoon, which we get.
to see because I got to see this genius unfold and she's like honey that's a really great cartoon we
you just saw there oh fantastic you're a genius what did you think little baby oh that's cool also by
the way hey little baby what do you think about being a big brother and it's like she's just knocked
up again eyebrow raise from this creepy baby cg yes oh that's right that's what we zoom in on
the baby and it's just like the people's eyebrow goes up my name
is Alvi
Avery
credits
I have to find my parents
oh no I can't do my Danny DeVito
because it's exactly my pop-paws
people might figure it out
and that's the end of the movie
we're just at credits
of fucking nonsense
this movie is 8 a what is it
92 minutes of nonsense
some versions are 92 minutes
93 minutes is the cut you want
this is also a movie where you feel
every minute I don't know. Every last
second. If we're going to go around
would you recommend this? Would you recommend it?
I would not. And we say
this a lot. I do think it might be the worst movie you
ever done with the exception of
Nuki always being up there. But Nuky's a little
more fun at least because you got the South African
dubbing factor. Yes.
This is like there's money here.
The strangeness factor
in Nuky kind of outweighs
it. Like it's just an odd thing that
happened. But like this
clearly we were trying to
to hit several different
demographics and we missed
every single one of them. And let me
point out that this is 2005
we've already had at
least one Lord of the Rings movie.
So New Line, this is an interesting
time for New Line because it's right at the point
of like we've got all of this Lord of the Rings
move money. And we're going to
waste it all. And we're going to waste it
on things like semi-pro
and son of the mask
and then eventually we're going to fuck
that whole success up so much
that our parent company absorbs us
and we get to pretend like we never existed.
They should have just shelved it.
I mean, they offered it to everybody.
Jack Black was offered.
He said absolutely not.
Yep.
I can't imagine there was a comedian working
at the time that they didn't offer this to.
But it's weird too
because the other thing you're asking of people
and certainly Jamie Kennedy is not up to the task is...
Which I don't even think is his fault.
I don't even think this movie is his fault.
It's totally not at all.
He's not up to the...
What was that line?
What?
Nothing.
No, I'm just saying like,
it's, you'd be very hard-pressed to find someone
who can successfully follow a manic physical Jim Carrey performance like this.
Because he's the best of the best at that stuff.
You know what?
Yeah, exactly.
Maybe Chris Farley's the mask.
But we couldn't get that, obviously.
A little, a little too late for Mask, too.
I'm just thinking about great physical comedians.
Right. And that's the whole, and I feel like that's a lot of why we're dealing with a dancing baby screen saver and not an actor playing the mask. I mean, it's exactly like, what, they offered Amy Poller and Luis C.K. The Daily Show. Nobody wants the chair. Nobody wants it. You're totally right. It's just really ridiculous. So you watch the mask, which is not one of Jim Carrey's best movies. It's a pretty bad movie. But it's him going on all cylinders. Do you really want that? Nobody does.
audience at large don't get us wrong we all think the mask is a bad movie it's a dull bad movie
lifted by nothing other than jim carrie's performance as the character there's nothing else in
honestly watch them back to back and the mask is is grounded the mask is at least grounded there's a
story there but there's some kind of structure to it you got richard jenny you've got rose
colored glasses when you do that because you watch the you watch i just watched it this week
But that's what I'm saying.
You're watching the son of the mask first, which is eating a whole buffet of dog shit.
And then you watch the mask.
Which is one white castle hamburger.
And you're like, wow, this is the best meal I ever had.
Exactly.
Sure, I guess.
Yes.
By the way, I won't recommend this movie.
It's a four way not recommend.
No way.
Was this what killed any potential for Jamie Kennedy?
Yeah, I think so.
I think he was dead on arrival.
He just doesn't have it.
You know, I think that he's.
It was amazing that Malibu's most wanted ever got off the ground.
I am a little shocked by that, honestly, that that was ever a thing.
That was before.
I'm sorry, but the other one, kicking it old school.
Well, honestly, the fact that he is asked to anchor a movie is insane to me.
The fact that he was asked to anchor that weird LA Public Access New Year's Eve show, that's a great video.
It's way more entertaining than son of the mass.
He's a good number six.
are number seven in a movie. Like,
Scream, he does well in Scream.
In, like, ten years when Alexander Payne asks him to be, like, the bartender in a really big scene, it's going to be great.
And he's going to be great in that scene.
But, like, you've got to, now we're waiting for this scene.
I will admit, from the first time I saw Scream One, I was like, I like this guy.
Like, to me, at the time watching Scream, I'm like, he's a horror movie geek.
That's exactly what I am.
Yep.
That's pretty cool.
Like, I saw myself represented in a movie.
I did the same thing.
It was the most I've ever regretted buying stock in someone.
Like, I bought low and, man, did I sell even lower?
That's son of the mask from 2005, directed by Lawrence Guterman.
