Hello, I'm Andrew Jupin.
Eric Siska.
Steven Seda.
And we hate movies.
Hello, everyone.
Welcome to We Hate Movies.
Show Network. Thank you for tuning in. As always, welcome to the final episode of the latest installment of listener request month.
This request comes in from Connor all the way from Syracuse, which is in Western New York, if anyone's keeping score.
Get out a map. You might as well learn something while you're listening to this.
You're not going to listen, learn anything from this episode.
This is what you had to say.
Hey, this is Connor calling from Syracuse, New York.
calling for listener request month.
I would like to replace the request for the devil's advocate,
1997, starring Al Pacino and Keanu Reeves.
I think it'd be a fun way to talk about.
You have Keanu trying to do a southern accent.
El Pacino totally off the hook,
and they prayed the trouble of Jeffrey Jones.
So, yeah, love the show, and I think that'd be a good episode.
Thanks.
So the Devil's Advocate, 1997, directed by Taylor Hackford,
That's an unfortunate name for a film director
If I can make a cheap joke for a second
He got through it
He made that shittyish Ray movie
Which is fine
It's a shittyish movie
Yeah that's true
This is kind of shittish too
Like it's just on the edge of
Mediocrity and like
Almost good
But I'll tell you what
If you asked Andrew and Steve
And I don't know about young Eric
About this movie in like
Circa 98
We'd tell you it's the greatest fucking thing
We'd ever seen
Oh my God
God, this movie, you guys.
Yeah.
How many times have you guys seen this movie?
Five to six.
Yeah, probably, yeah.
Over the years, sure.
Because I definitely saw it in theaters, and I was like,
whoa, man, this is an Oscar caliber, everything.
I did not see it in theaters.
It was a rental.
It was an old VHS rental from the grocery store.
But I loved this movie.
I thought it was on par with the Godfather.
when it came out.
It was just like that
like super prestige
is that because of the Pacino
connection?
Yeah,
I was like this is the best thing.
I mean,
I didn't know shit about shit
but I was like yeah,
this is like a prestige picture
that is going to last forever
because it's a classic.
Right, yeah, of course.
For some reason.
Well, there's definitely that scene
like kind of towards the end of the movie
where you get Al Pacino
doing a little soft shoe in a church
and I was just thinking about
shitty old Godfather 3
and I was like,
I wish I was watching that.
I wished I was watching Godfather 3 over this movie.
Well, now, right?
Now.
Not back then.
No, no, back then.
I was like this.
It's the greatest thing ever.
It combines, like Steve said,
Oscar caliber performances with, like, my favorite genre,
horror.
This is like a pseudo-horror movie.
This is like a Spike TV masterpiece.
You know what I mean?
Oh, yeah.
I could see this playing on their schedule.
Is Spike TV still around?
Oh, yeah.
I haven't had cable in like five years,
but there's people still giving a fuck about it.
about Spike TV?
Correct me if I'm wrong, Internet,
but I believe they have the
Jimmy Fallon rap.
Wait, no.
Oh, lip sync battle?
Oh, okay.
So that's a,
cha-ching right there.
That's another thing
keeping me away from Spike TV, I guess.
So, so Steve,
we've all seen this movie a bunch.
Can you boil down
what this movie is?
It's like a morality tale
meets John Grisham
meets
Rosemary's
babyish horror
I mean it's basically
Keanu Reeves
is a hot shot
Florida lawyer
who gets an opportunity
to join a
big time
New York firm
in the big
city
run by the devil
whoops
don't you hate that
when you start a new job
and it's surprisingly
run by the devil
happens more than you think
and
Cilarity ensues for about two and a half hours.
Dude, two hours and 24 minutes.
I started tweeting that all these people were trying to guess
from the runtime what the movie was.
Yeah, it's longer than Star Wars.
Oh, yeah, it's a solid 20 minutes longer than Star Wars.
Is it the longest movie you ever done?
I think it might be.
I really do.
I know that like the juror like it's like 210 maybe or 205.
The Conqueror is kind of a long movie.
Yeah.
I was, I don't know.
Either way, this is where you,
feel it the most this movie i mean i couldn't believe it the final scene of this movie lasts in
itself about 25 minutes i can't believe they allowed this cut to be theatrically released and it's one
of those things where you look at that like you started up and you're like i must have accidentally
bought the extended edition and then you look on i'm db and it's like theatrical cut 224 fucking
kill me yeah i know what am i uh watching one of those you know marvel
monster movies? No, I thought I was watching a law movie with the devil.
That should be 90 minutes. Exactly. And like, spoiler alert at the end, he's the devil.
And it's like, oh shit. And credits. Like, that's it. Dude, the fact that this movie makes such a to-do at the end about revealing that Al Pacino is the devil, fucking suck it.
The movie's called a devil's advocate. Look at the poster. Just do yourself a favor and look at
at the poster. And he's been
hoo-ha in the whole movie. Oh,
this is like a level
11 hua-alert.
He's tap-dancing
through this whole fucking thing. He's
reading people's minds and replying
in other languages. There's so
many devil
probably moments. I'm going to jump ahead
to the end of the movie because he said level
11 and it never happened before
or since that Al Pacino pulls a
Daniel LaRuso in this movie.
Because Keanu
He's like, do you fuck my wife?
And he's like, yeah, on a scale of 1 to 10,
one being the most, you know,
a vanilla word into the mill romp,
and 10 being the most absurd sexual experience
you can ever imagine.
It was an 11.
And I'm like, that's Daniel Russo talking about the mac and cheese
in Karate Kid 4 3.
He's like, hey, what do you think of the macaroni and cheese?
And he's like, on a scale of 1 to 10,
I give it an 11.
And it's like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
A borderline 11.
That's what that sex was.
Go back and listen to whatever that was.
Gone fishing episode 11 or I don't know.
That was a long time ago.
Oh yeah.
Holy shit.
So by the way, we start this movie of Keanu Reeves is defending a child molester.
Played by noted pervert looking guy Chris Bauer.
From True Blood, he was on the wire playing
noted loser Frank Sabatka.
He plays a
he plays sex machine
in the stay tuned to come
8mm. Oh, I thought
I was like, wait a minute, sex machine
you mean what's his face
from dust till dawn? I think it's maybe
he's just called the machine or something.
Oh, that, because sex machine
is what's his face? Tom Savini.
Yeah, come on, sex machine!
But yeah, no, he's
played a pervert a bunch of times. He's got
pervert face. He does. He does. And he's
like a, you know, he's a chubby, bald fella.
He's like if George Costanza really fell out of society.
And so you realize instantly, like, Keanu Reeves is a defense attorney that is just, you know,
defending the lowest of the low, and he's got a perfect record.
Yes.
And on the stand is Heather Matarazzo of Todd Salon's fame.
I think that was kind of a little bit of typecasting as like, we got a little bit of racy material.
Any 14-year-old up for it?
Do we have a young-looking girl
who's mature enough
that she can say this twisted shit?
Oh, get the girl from Welcome to the dollhouse.
She'll do it.
She'll say anything.
Was she in, oh, no, I'm thinking a Selma Blair
that was in Cruel Intentions.
Yes.
She'll do some weird shit, too.
Sure.
Well, she's a bit older, though, right?
Well, they're both older now.
Oh, yeah, that's how old.
was made in 1997.
We're almost, guys, we are on the cusp
of the Devil's Advocates
20th anniversary, if you can
believe it. Is there going to be a
theatrical re-release? Yeah, dude,
I think I heard it's going to be an IMAX.
I feel like they would just release like
another collector's edition
DVD in this movie. Oh, it's not even
getting high down? No, it's just another
platinum collector's edition.
Oh, yeah, those are really good.
That was a thing,
that existed. Oh, yeah. But no,
one ever thought those were actually
like collector's items. No, but
like if you, I remember two
specifically, Blow the
Johnny Depp movie. They released that thing
seven times on DVD. Yeah, I had
the platinum collection. Oh, cool. And there was
also, I believe,
one of them dumbass Austin
Powers movies. I think it was the second one. Spy
Who Shagged me was also like that. Yeah, you want that in
platinum. Yeah, you want to preserve that
piece of shit. That's another movie I've seen
about 27 times.
So as Heather Matarazzo is going through this really uncomfortable description of being molested...
By a teacher.
By a teacher.
You know, Keanu's getting his game face on.
He's trying to think about what he's going to say next.
And he looks over at Chris Bauer who's jerking off.
Dude, this man is rubbing one out in the courtroom.
And he's like fingering the table.
It's disgusting.
Right, yeah.
Do you think the table fingering was all Chris Bauer's suggestion?
And he's like, hey, Taylor, what if I did this to the table?
Guys, I'm doing it in real life.
Well, no, that's, it's showing sympathy for this character, right?
Because he's, it's a compulsion.
He can't help himself.
It's not like he's thinking, I'm going to do the wrong thing.
Oh, man.
Can't stop.
This man should be put in the trunk of a car and the car should be driven off a cliff.
Well, that's kind of the one thing about this movie.
This movie's a very long, belated lawyer joke.
You know what I mean?
Or belabored, I should say.
Yeah.
And it kind of just doesn't allow for the other half of our legal system to exist.
It's like, those fucking scum-sucking defense attorneys, they're all working for the devil.
And it's like, well, not really.
Everyone's entitled to a defense.
Yeah.
And, you know, when I was younger, too, I thought, like, the title was cool and all that.
But let me play devil's advocate.
Like, oh, God, it's so stupid.
Even the title.
Oh, the title's really.
stupid don't worry about it but yeah it did it grabbed me dude i was in that grocery store video section
like oh get the fuck out of here alpuccino and kiano reeves in the same movie like this was my
heat he did already come out but this was my heat i was like the dude from bill and ted's
excellent adventure and speed together with the godfather fucking finally yeah who cares about
De Niro. I mean, it was one of those
things like, oh my God, Pacino's
playing the devil. Everybody come out of their
house and look at this. Well, that should be
I mean, it's one of our
greatest actors playing
like the devil. That's a great character
to be able to play. But like, unfortunately
it was like 10 years
too late for Al Pacino to play the devil.
You know what I mean? Like, this is full
on screaming hoo-haha
he-haw and Pacino.
Yeah, De Niro did it better with
Angel Heart. Oh, yeah.
Yeah, he's the devil in that movie, isn't he?
I believe so.
Yeah, well, he plays Lucifer.
Yeah, that was actually...
I'll be over here killing myself.
It was, that was one of those movies I never saw fully because it was like always on Cinemax.
And I never caught it at the beginning.
I was like, oh, man, I'm going to be lost.
No, I think I had the collector's edition.
Oh, wow.
You got the Platinum edition?
I don't know if I don't think it was platinum.
I think I had the regular collectors.
I'm not made of platinum.
You know what's annoying about this movie is.
the fact that it's set in New York City.
And I'll tell you why.
Because when you put lawyers filming on location in New York City,
I'm just thinking about law and order.
Sure.
So this movie becomes law and order with the devil.
And the problem is we're concentrating way too much
on all the fucking lawyering business
and not enough about the devil.
This movie is the devil without the devil.
Like Al Pacino is barely in this movie.
He's in...
But the thing is, he's in this movie for at least 90 minutes,
but there's an hour other stuff.
Well, I mean, it's, yeah, first of all, if he's in this for 90 minutes, we still have another hour to go.
Yeah.
But also, like, he's in it as, like, this Al Pacino character.
Yes.
Not playing the devil, because for whatever reason, we're leaving the big reveal to the last 25 minutes that he's actually the devil.
Like, just confirm that shit and move on.
Yep.
Yeah, let's see a scene where he's, like, you know, get out, you know, getting some acolytes going and, you know,
doing the whole thing exactly instead we're left with like all of these other
acolytes like making demon faces at charlie's thereon and all this shit and it's like
yeah i get it the devil's here let him be the devil and dance around as the devil
not as this dude john milton by the way could we hit that nail on the head any harder
no no we cannot short answer no uh so he goes to chris boward he's like
what i don't let you go trick off for the judge
which is one of our favorite lines of the movie
in Keanu's really bad Southern
accent. Oh, this thing is in and out
and in and out again.
One of my favorite moments
of this opening thing is when he's
he's like confronting this poor
little girl about the evidence
against her. Like, did you ever
pass notes in class?
Disgusting pig monster.
So his whole defense is like
she made this up because
he found a note where she was made.
making fun of him.
I bet he eats a thousand pancakes in the morning.
Oh, excuse me.
I was wrong.
Disgusting hog beast.
And what's amazing is that whole courtroom just goes,
I know.
As if a young girl called a dude fat
justifies him raping her.
Well, you did say he ate a thousand pancakes.
I think it's like, oh, there's the motivation for the
Pretty little liar.
That's what did it.
You know, you tell you, oh, yeah, he found that note and was upset, so then she lied.
That's an extreme, like, that's an extreme lie.
Oh, yeah.
For any, for a kid, for, to drag it to a court proceeding, for a note being found.
He's talking about some game that they used to play with, like, the kids would, like, feel each other up called special places.
Hey, do you ever play a game called special places?
What was that about?
Did you not play a game called Special Places?
Was it or was it not sexual in nature?
And look, I guess the fucking prosecutor's doing bong rips
because none of this is getting thrown out.
And the judge keeps me like, I'll allow it.
Dude, this judge is a fan of Keanu Reeves' character, Kevin, whatever the fuck.
Kevin Lomax.
By the way, the devil's son is named fucking Kevin.
Can we all just relax?
Kevin Lomax, by the way.
sounds a little
not someone who believes in the devil
it's a Jewish last name
Lomax that's a Jewish last name
Oh yeah
No horns in this movie by the way
He's got to sprout those horns dude
Yes he needs a fucking cape
Like if you're being
If you're making this silly sing-song
Ding Dong performance as the devil
It needs to be a red cape
Horns his hair cut needs to change
He needs to be a behooven al
Al Pacino, speaking of his hooves in this movie,
this is a, like, Hollywood no-no,
and I can't believe it got through.
Taylor Hackford must have pulled some strings.
There's the scene where they're on the roof of his,
Al Pacino's big, like, penthouse office or whatever,
and they're walking outside.
And there's like that, it looks like an infinity pool.
Yeah, it's like a real rich douchebag kind of place.
And there's a shot, like, looking down from above.
And you totally see Al Pacino's show.
shoes and you can see the fucking heels
that he's got on. Yes, I
made a note about these heels
because it's goat legs
right? He's hiding
goat legs in there. Dude, he's
totally hiding goat legs. But Al Pacino
the actor is wearing lifts because he's acting
up against Keanu Reeves. I'm sure as a
fucking tall as a house. I mean, he
is a lot taller than him in this movie anyway.
He is, but like don't show the
heels. Nobody films the fucking
apple cart that Tom Cruise stands on
but we all know it's there.
See, you know, when I was watching this movie last night,
and I was like, oh, ha, ha, clever reference, goat legs.
But then you showed me that there's a scientific explanation for every riddle in the book.
Dude, I just played the scullied to your moldered.
Exactly.
That's exactly what happened.
So basically his insane defense of this child.
Hog beast.
Child molest.
A thousand pancakes.
special places.
I'll move that she pay him $10,000 for calling him fat.
Yeah, that's right.
Yeah, Keanu's right about that.
Good job, Kevin Lomax.
Counselor, could you have your defendant, pull his pants up?
Dude, him just yelling at him about that is probably my favorite scene in the whole movie and it's five minutes into it.
The important thing to hold on to in this scene or this sequence,
is in the middle, after the jerk off, Kevin Lomax goes into the bathroom and he's like,
oh man, this guy's a scumbag.
How do I, you know, he has this moment where he like, you know, really gets down on himself and
there's this like press agent who's like, can't win them all, kid.
But he's also apparently friends with him because they go out after, but whatever, sorry.
But that's like a framing device that we'll get to.
Yeah, it's like, he's washing his face off in the sink.
He's looking in the mirror like, are you really going to do this boy?
Are you going to defend this pig monster?
He probably did eat 1,000 pancakes, and you know it.
He diddled that girl while he ate those 1,000 pancakes,
and you're going to defend him.
How do you think them girls learn special places?
Disgusting pig monsters.
Hey, Lomax, thanks for getting me off.
You want to go eat a split 2,000 pancakes with me?
Because I definitely need at least 1,000 pancakes.
I mean, you heard the testimony in there.
I need 1,000 pancakes.
Could you go and have Z's on a number?
entire i hop i mean let's buy a franchise you're a lawyer right you got money right
so he gets him off and you fucking hogby's that is way too many pancakes hogbyes are you out of
i don't have this iop so fuck you lobex are you out of your hogby's pancake eating mine
i don't care if there's none for anyone else
I'm eating the pancakes.
Unless a girl, a young lady, comes here.
Maybe I'll share some with her,
but other than that, those pancakes are mine.
You mind if I jerk off and there's an eye hop, by the way?
It kind of, it's a two-way street.
Whenever I'm eating pancakes, I got to jerk off.
Oh, so we celebrate, you know.
In the weirdest way possible.
Yeah, we're doing shots, shots, shot, shot, shot, shot,
Dude, it's insane.
It's like we're drinking all these shots of whiskey.
It might be tequila.
I mean, we're down in Florida.
Yeah, who knows?
They got whiskey there, too, I think.
Well, it's like a, it's like a weird, like, sort of brown liquid because it's just
like bad prop stuff.
Yeah, yeah.
You can't really tell what's going on.
Yeah.
Are those pancake shots?
Are you drinking maple syrup without me?
Get out of here, hogby's.
This is my celebratory tequila for getting your gross ass off.
No, that's that's.
the good for
Mount stuff.
Hey, does this place card?
Because if it does,
I'm not going to stay.
Because I got a couple of friends
in my drunk that want to come in.
God, we'll get to that stupid shit.
But so, like, let's go out
and celebrate your flawless victory, Kevin.
And they just, it's him.
His wife was played by Charlie's Theron.
And this press agent that harassed him
in the bathroom a little while ago.
And they just get wrecked.
I've never seen anything like this.
Like, the crew on SVU, like, goes out after a victory.
And, you know, Raul Aspars, like, buys everyone a glass of wine.
Ice teas, like, oh, he's kind of got a beer or whatever.
But never anything like this.
This is outrageous drinking.
No one on those celebratory evenings, I'm guessing,
no one there is eating their wife's ass on the dance floor because Keanu gets noseful.
Dude, he's, like, dancing with the Charlie's there.
He's like, whoops, dropped my wallet, and, like, bends down and starts chowing on her ass cheeks.
And you're just like, dude, you're in the middle of a dance floor.
I'm going to pretend your ass is a thousand pancakes.
Call me a disgusting hog beast.
Do it.
Call me a disgusting hog beast.
See what happens.
Betcha, I get real hungry.
I mean, this movie is sexual in nature.
I'll tell you that much.
And I think, Steve, you've sort of.
of crack the nut as to why
perverts like me and you in middle school
loved this movie. I'm glad you left me
out of that. I like it for the
production design.
I still don't know your exact
track record with this movie. I believe Steve
when he says he watched it as many
times as he did.
Hold on. That's too much.
I watched this movie
because I was like, you know, a fan of
big tough guy movies, you know, and this
kind of falls in that thing. But
to your point, yes, this is
One of the only Al Pacino movies
you will see on Cinemax.
Yeah, this definitely...
This, Carusin, what else he got on there?
Martin...
Martin Cinemax III.
You're only going to get the movie
where Al Pacino's making his son fuck his daughter.
And that other one where he pretends to be gay,
but then he might be actually gay
and he says, hips or lips.
Oh, that's a real hot picture.
But I don't appreciate how this movie disparages.
huge hog beasts like myself.
I would like you to cut one or two of those
scent of a woman.
Anybody eating ass in that movie?
No?
Throw it away.
Hold on.
I wasn't going to do this movie.
But then I saw Charlize reveal herself
in a church with scratches all over itself.
Now that's a Martin Cinemax
the third Oscar Calabar performance.
Any new listeners out there?
This is a character we invented.
I think on Moon Trap, that is a...
I think it goes back older than Moon Trap.
Oh, no, that's just that.
Is it just Moonsraps?
We invented Martin Cinemax the third?
Sure.
Wow.
It just, it feels like he's been with us all along.
Because he has.
It's the best trick he ever pulled.
He was with me when I was watching it on Cinemax.
Here's the thing that I haven't revealed yet, by the way.
I've seen this movie like 13 times.
Ooh.
Unlucky number.
666 would have been better
That's way too many times to watch this movie
We might buy that furry road
What's the titty situation in that film
What's the feminist overtones
The Sport in the Garments
I want good movies like the devil's advocate
Good quality
Oscar caliber pictures like the devil's advocate
And sliver
Bring me sliver.
Whatever happened to Billy Baldwin.
Great question.
So he's eating his wife's asshole in the middle of a dance club.
We're having a good old blues honky ton time.
Oh, there's some fart rock going on.
Oh, there's plenty of it.
And Al Pacino's number two, who's a character that amounts to absolute zero.
And you think that this dude is being set up for, like,
co-billed. He's going to be there when the credits hit kind of a thing.
But he just disappeared. So he offers Keanu a job to pick a jury because that's what he's
really good at in New York. And he's like, what?
You're a black guy in this bar? He does have this lawyer. He's like, what, you're a black?
Yeah. What he's basically saying is like, if you're trying to put one over on me, whoever's
orchestrating this, the fact that they picked a black gentleman to come give me this job offer in
this like potunk Florida bar like they picked the wrong guy to do it bub and the dude's just
standing there thinking like you know I'm working for the fucking devil man just take this
business card and shut up you know what my devil deal I still get racist shit I sold my fucking
soul to the devil and I still have to put up with this hillbillies crap great what a great
fucking America you know what this movie picks up and drops off like
almost instantly is a lot of like
whooshing devil like evil sounds
my god yeah there's like there's one
when Keanu's in the bathroom and it's he's
at the sink and it's like whoosh and you're like
oh the devil and then there's like when he gets to
New York like a bus drives by and it's like whoosh
oh the devil and then that's like kind of it
we driving this bus now Kevin
woo ha
Kevin, there are two kinds of beings in this world.
God and people who drive buses.
Don't you want to see yourself in that driver's seat?
Or whatever for 30 plus minutes.
So it's like, you know, he's a hot shot dude.
He picks this jury.
He picks it over.
The lawyer is the guy, one of the guys from Spaceballs, which is like, oh, cool.
Oh, what guy from Spaceballs?
He's kind of like not Jeffrey Tambor.
Oh, he's currently.
Colonel Sanders.
Yes, yes, yes.
Are you kidding me?
I didn't even realize that until just now.
Oh, that's a mate.
Wow, good pull, say that.
And this dude's like, all right, you hot shit, swamp lawyer.
This is New York City, and you think you're so great.
Because Keanu Reeves is like, I want to get rid of that guy and that got number four.
Well, he's a black gentleman and number six.
Get rid of that woman.
She's got an agenda.
And this dude's like not buying it.
And then it's like seconds later
because we see no
verdicts in this movie
for whatever reason.
It's just everyone's walking
out of courtrooms
and it's just like
here we go.
He won.
And trials take apparently
like 48 hours.
Like that's it.
Nothing's like months or months or months.
Because that's how fucking good he is,
dude.
He's that good at picking the jury
and then like massaging it
just right that they take
no time to deliberate at all.
Sure.
And he comes back to the hotel
and there's Charlize like,
oh you lost baby?
That's unfortunate.
tune in? Because her accent's just as
terrible as what I just did. She's
okay in this. I think that she's better
than him with the accent. I feel like
almost, I feel like nobody's
good. Yeah, you're probably right.
Nobody wins. Well, it's
just, this character's a little bit silly
because, like,
this, her angle
in this movie is where we're ripping off
Rosemary's baby. Yes. And the whole thing
is like, Rosemary's baby, again,
a movie that's like two hours and 15 minutes
or something like that, but you don't
feel it, first of all.
But, like, that movie, it's, like, escalating.
Like, her paranoia slowly escalates, blah, blah, blah.
Charlize hits Crazy Town in, like, 45 minutes.
Well, she starts off, like, a, like, a fun, like, work hard, play hard, kind of, you know,
towny kind of drunk.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
She loves that, like, her husband's the all-star of the Gainesville legal department.
They show that she's good at her job, whatever that is, it's got something to do with cars or
something.
And then she moves to New York.
she goes baby crazy
like out of nowhere
and because Al Pacino's not allowed to really be the devil in this movie
like you don't
it's not like justified
like you know why
yes because he's he's the puppet master
behind this whole thing but like
as far as the movie functioning is concerned
like she just goes crazy
in like zero to 60 and you're like
well this is unearned well like
also there's like all these like montages
of her trying to paint
the apartment, and it's like the neighbor woman who...
Tamara Tooney from Law & Order.
Right, who's married to the guy that offered him the job.
Right.
They live next door.
Red flag.
Don't do that.
Don't live right next door to your coworkers.
Don't live in the same apartment as several of your coworkers.
It's a company building, apparently.
That's a bad idea.
A residential company building?
What are you doing?
So, but like, they kind of start to drive her.
crazy. Yes. Right. Because they're also evil demon
pigs or whatever, but... They're just a bunch
of pancake eating hog beasts. But like this woman keeps making her
repaint her walls like 50 times. I would go crazy
too. Yeah, actually you're right. If I think about that, like that's a
justifiable dissent into madness. You just did a huge cross-country
move and now you had to repaint your living room 50 times.
Put a bullet in my brain.
Also hire a fucking decorator.
All right, lady.
Exactly.
Hand it off.
You got all the money in the world?
Kevin figured it out.
Kevin made all that money.
That's a bit of bullshit that they're just not paying attention when they're making this movie.
Because there's a scene where she's like, she is meeting with an interior decorator because they're talking about like tile for the floors or something like that.
And the guy's like, oh, it's $1,300 a square or like whatever it is.
Right.
So like they do meet with somebody.
There's no reason why she's actually painting this apartment.
Exactly.
This is like an afternoon.
I mean, like, it takes more than that.
But like, the guy will have an idea.
I'm doing a fucking southwestern thing.
And it's going to be this, that, and the other thing.
And like, yeah, you get to get your own trim or whatever.
And, you know, if I'm making devil money,
I'm not picking up a brush.
Exactly.
By the way, my favorite slash least favorite thing in the world is there's a home improvement
star wipe in the middle of this movie with the paint.
And it doesn't happen ever again or before that.
Dude, you said there's A.
There's like seven.
Oh, really?
Good.
It keeps swishing.
It's like every time.
No, that's French.
What was?
Uh.
But like every time Tamarituni is like, I don't know about that one.
It's like roller brush effect.
And we like, here comes the next scene.
Dude, what's Al Boylan getting into this time?
It's fucking.
Childish.
Yes.
It is amateur hour.
It's such shit.
It's amateur two hours in 24 minutes.
Well, that's a great point, Eric.
Because, like, we meet Al Pacino, and he's clearly the devil.
Just from Jump Street, he's the fucking devil.
Also, again, because I saw the poster on the fucking bogs.
And you saw the title of the fucking movie.
I saw the preview.
I saw the whole fucking thing.
I know that he's the devil.
The previews really drove it.
Dude, the preview had him
sticking his finger in the holy water
and had to get foiled. You know who that
happens to? Only the devil.
Maybe if Hitler did it. But other than
Hitler, only the devil.
And so it's very clear he's the devil.
You're like, oh, maybe it's going to be a cat and mouse
and he's going to try and, you know, sell a soul.
Then we get the tour
of the whole office
and we meet everybody from every
different account.
Also, here's a question.
Why is the devil so interested
in the goings-on of this law firm.
And this is, so here's what this is.
And again, it's glossed over
because this script is junk town.
But there's one part where he, like,
Keanu Reeves, and this is maybe like,
I don't know, four-fifths into this movie.
Sure.
He meets someone from...
Four-16th, since the movie.
He meets someone from the Justice Department.
This character who lasts about 75 seconds.
And the guy explains,
planes, like, all of these different, like, departments that Al Pacino, like, shows him in the
beginning of the movie.
So it's like, this dude works in the Middle East for this.
This dude's in Asia doing this.
It's all, but it's all bullshit.
It's all, like, racist, like, I got people in the Middle East, and the Bosnians are working
for me, too, and the North Koreans.
And it's like, you know, the devil.
Yeah.
But what he paints it as is, like, these are departments of my law firm.
But then this Justice Department guy is, like,
well this guy's working on chemical weapons and this guy's a lord of war in africa and all this
shit so it's like they're actually not lawyers they're like managing the world's evil oh wow
he's the guys he's the rogue nation syndicate he totally is the syndicate dude imagine m i 6 that's
where it goes it turns out down the devil i would love it dude Ethan hunt tracks down the
fucking devil, dude, and
sidekicks him into an invisible box.
They gassed that dude in that
movie. I like that.
Well, this is another thing about
the devil. And it's very much
the Catholic devil, right? I mean, that's the only
thing that makes it. Oh, 100%.
For some reason, this voodoo priest
played by dent, there's so many
little law cases we get into, one of
which being Delroy Lindo.
The great Delroy Lindo,
who's like uncredited in
like a nothing role in this movie.
And it just sort of like retcons the entire voodoo religion into being like the devil's
play thing or the Catholic devil's play thing.
It's the devil's like weekend hobby.
I'll go down to my voodoo room for the afternoon.
But I don't even understand why this case is such a, like Kevin Lomax is just like,
that case is a loser.
It's a loser.
You're going to lose that case.
But it's...
It's a guy who slits a goat's throat in a sacrifice for his religious beliefs.
Everyone does that.
Right?
That's like kosher meat.
Well, that's...
And yeah, it's like...
That's what's weird, though, is like it's not a loser because Kevin Lomack solves it, like, overnight.
And it's not evil.
That's the weird thing, too.
At the end of the movie,
Pacino starts like, you know, doing a bad summary
and a paper, and he's like, and then when you did that,
he's like, oh, and then you had the Pope
and the voodoo gods and swamis all eaten at the same table.
I love that one, Kevin.
And it's like, well, I don't know.
It's just all religions, right, dude?
But also, like,
shouldn't Al Pacino be against Elroy Lindo
for doing harm to goats when he's got goat lads?
You leave those goats alone?
Elroy. At least the legs. I could do something with those legs.
Yep. Those legs. It's stupid. And then he fucking puts a voodoo curse on this guy for no reason.
This dude who works for like the city health department and this dude's like coughing in the courtroom.
The hilarious IMDB trivia is that after that, so it's a scene where like,
Kianu's like, everyone else is allowed to kill goats. Why can't discreet?
Why is he such a hog beast?
Me as a Watt man can go out into the street and kill a goat right now,
and this mayor's police force ain't going to do shit.
And he winds up, and then it's the prosecutor's turn to talk, and he starts going to go,
and he's coughing forever.
At the end of that scene, everyone in the crew gave that guy a standing ovation.
Stop.
Is that a thing?
Yeah, and the MDB trivia.
Really?
They were like, oh, my God, that guy knocked that coughing scene.
out of the park.
They were probably just happy
that it was the only scene in the movie
they had to do one take for.
Because let me tell you,
you want me to cough in a movie,
I could do a great one.
You can cough till the goats come home.
That sounds pretty good.
That's Oscar B.
I mean, this, like,
it does remind you, though,
of like, when you're in public
and someone's just having a coughing fit
like that, whether you're like at the movies
or like in a museum or whatever
and you just want to be like
you know what dude
and like I was like living
vicariously through this judge
who's just like fucking get it together
the judge is great
he's like come on man
stop this horse shit
but also like not even a continuance
of like all right get your shit together
we'll take a recess
where you can go get a fucking
rechola and shut up in my courtroom
but I mean it's just
he wins and that takes
15 minutes
The next thing we get is this big party at Al Pacino's house
Oh no, I'm sorry, Jeffrey Jones's house
Welcome back to the program
Who plays Eddie Bazood
Eddie Bazoon
Who we've already seen shredding papers, I think, right?
No, that's later in the film, yeah
All right, well, don't worry
He does that
Yeah, Jeffrey Jones is playing a scumbag
In this movie
Big surprise.
But this movie, though, does remind
me again the troubles were so unfortunate for the victims first and foremost but the troubles were
also unfortunate for us as moviegoers because geoffrey jones is a great actor i i really liked him
back in the day ferris bueller beetle juice he's good in this too he is good in this he's like
the third best actor in this movie because like i mean for whatever we're making fun of it
because it is stupid and he's he hon but like alpuccino
is still Al Pacino.
Kiano's still Kianu.
But then third build, I think, is Jeffrey Jones.
You know it might be a stay tuned?
Mom and Dad saved the world.
Oh, yeah.
There's like aliens in that movie.
Is that the idea?
And John Lovitz.
Yeah, I think John Lovitz is an alien.
First and foremost, John Lovitz.
I, you know, I have, that was like an HBO movie.
I've seen that movie like several times.
Oh, of course.
So we're at this party.
And, you know, we get interested to Connie Nielsen, also of SVU fame.
Oh, right.
She sort of replaced Mariska for a little bit.
For a little bit.
When we first see her and they're doing a tour of the office,
she's like talking in Aramaic on her headset.
I thought it was Italian.
Is she speaking of Aramaic?
Either way, it sounded evil to me.
Well, though, the funny thing is it's Italian and, again, the IMDB trivia,
Steve Zada, right off the IMD trivia ticket.
In the Italian version, they use Spanish, and in every other version, they use Italian.
Oh, yeah, because some Italian person sent a note to the studio.
You know what?
Please change this last part.
Mussolini be damned, we're a good nation.
But yeah, she's chewing somebody out in Italian.
It's, like, he walks in, and that's like the first temptation, though.
Like, he's like, look at that non-hog beast.
There.
See, the thing is, there is, okay, we know it's Italian, but there was also that whispy devilish, like,
Sh, sounded like Miko Hughes.
That are Wicitt.
It might have been famed EWalk Wicked.
Maybe that's who was on the other line.
Wicked knows Italian.
She was getting the EWalks out of a jam, maybe.
Oh, it was like a triple homicide?
Yeah, or a zoning issue with the empire.
They'd be in league with the devil, right?
The Ewarks.
Oh, yeah, they're soulless little monsters.
You see those dead little light bulb eyes?
Absolutely.
Who I created the Ewax.
And or you're welcome.
I told George, you know what you need?
Teddy bass.
Can anyone in their right?
Might mine say that the nude prequel trilogy was entirely mine?
Who would deny that?
And teddy bears that eat human flesh.
So this is a thread in this movie where we're supposed to be like,
oh my God, Connie Nielsen's so hot.
And that fucking pig, Charlize Theron's getting in the way of Keanu's dick action.
Yeah, right.
Just stop it.
They're both very incredibly attractive women, and let's just shut up.
And you know what?
This is so stupid, too.
They're like, how can we make it so that this dumb-ass approach is even remotely convincing?
Oh, I know.
We'll have some other character to Maritouni.
Tell Charlize, or no, it's actually, it's Al Pacino at this party.
Tell her that her hair looks like garbage so that the character will cover.
and die it, and we can put
Charlize in this fucking dollar
store Halloween wig
for the rest of this movie.
The Halloween wig
be damned.
Earthquake from the WWF
could take a shit on her head
and she could walk around the rest of the movie
with an obese man's
diarrhea as a hairstyle
and she's still the best looking
woman you've ever seen. She's not the best
smelling woman. No, certainly not.
Well, it depends what you're in.
Oh, that's true.
There's something for everybody on the internet.
I'm pretty sure earthquakes dead, RIP.
Sorry, everybody.
Oh, well, you know, that's a real 50-50.
He was around in the 90s.
He was around.
Him and Typhoon.
And, wow.
Is that guy dead too?
They were both big gentlemen.
It's Typhoon dead.
Typhoon might be dead.
Typhoon might be.
You know, Yoko Zuna's definitely passed away.
By the way, RIPI.
Roddy Piper.
That happened when we were off the air.
That's a fucking tragedy.
That is a tragedy.
Still, for some reason,
Hulk Hogan roam in the universe.
Figure that shit out.
If he keeps eating pork,
maybe not.
If anyone doesn't get that joke,
check the transcript
from his sex tape.
So at this point,
at the party,
you know,
he's like,
Hey,
get a haircut,
your ugly pig.
And then he's like,
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Craig T. Nelson isn't in this movie yet.
But I'm just getting warmed up.
Dude, enter Craig T. Nelson as it's ostensibly Donald Trump.
Yes, he's a real estate magnate, et cetera, et cetera.
The difference being Craig T. Nelson is like actually successful at building and keeping real estate in the city.
Unlike that moron.
Yeah, no, he's no good.
No, he's a no good, Nick.
But this movie...
He's a loser.
Oh, man, he'll come after you.
And he's bald and great.
Gracefully, Craig T. Nelson is.
Yeah, you know what? Craig D. Nelson has fucking accepted reality when it comes to the balding.
It's the best traits of, it's like what you, it's like the idealistic Donald Trump.
It's like what you wanted him to turn out to be.
I vote a triple murderer?
Yes.
Dude, I'm praying for murder charges to come up on this guy.
That'll finally derail that shit.
Wouldn't surprise me.
This movie is not a.
afraid of constantly named
dropping Donald Trump, by the way.
At that party, we were just talking about some
woman's like, well, you know, Donald Trump was
supposed to show up, but I guess he got in trouble with
something such and such, and you're just like,
yeah, I fucking get it. Al-Damato's
there for no reason. Senator
Alphonse Damato in this
movie. Why would you be at a movie?
You're like, hey, uh, hey, Senator, you want
to be at a movie where you're in league with the devil?
Do you think it's like,
there's that one senator? Hey, you'll never be
president. Come on. Go on.
You're Italian.
You're never going to be present.
Come out in here.
There's that one senator that's in all those
bad man movies because he's always been such a fan
for everyone.
Do you remember that?
Maybe this guy's just always been a fan of the devil.
I'm Al-Demato and I love
his Lord and Savior, Satan.
Vote for me, Alphonse de Mado.
I know you're like, I don't know, I guess
taking a pot shot at yourself.
But like, you know, when you're
Bill Clinton, like, oh,
I'll do love McDonald's.
That's one thing.
I do, I am in league with the Prince of Darkness.
Hardy, har, har.
Your fucking party's got enough problems as it is.
You don't need to be yucking it up
that you're in league with the devil, Republican senator.
It's amazing.
Oh, it is just such a dumb-ass wrong-headed cameo.
So the many movies we have going on now
A lot of movies in the air.
A lot of movies going on.
One is, oh, my God, I'm pretty sure my boss is the devil.
The other one is, oh, my God, my wife is going crazy in this haunted hotel room kind of situation.
Yep.
And now it's an O.J. Simpson-esque kind of murder, you know, high-profile murder case that we're going to look at extensively for no reason.
And we just dip into this case hard-hore.
It's a subplod.
It's a fucking subplot that hijacks the movie.
I felt like I was reading paperwork.
Well, this is Kevin's big job.
You know, this is showing us that he's progressed from picking out juries to now he's in the big leagues.
And there's, I mean, if you ever needed like confirmation you as Kevin Lomax that you're working for the devil, the whole thing is like at this party, it's like, every.
Everybody get down to Al Pacino's office, some shit's going down.
They get down there.
It's like Craig D. Nelson.
It was just arrested for murdering his wife, son, and a maid or something.
Made, yes.
And so he's like, you know what I think, everybody?
I think that Kevin should take this case.
And, like, Jeffrey Jones throws up.
And they're just like, what are you talking about?
This dude's been here for 48 hours.
He can't be taking this case.
He's like, no, no, no.
Trust me.
He's got to hit it out of the park.
And it's like, all right, he's obviously throwing this fucking opportunity at you, Kevin Lomax.
He might be the devil.
The other thing that might be going on is this guy might want to watch me have sex eventually.
You know what I mean?
That's my boss wants to look at my dick.
It's one of those things.
Thank you for bringing that up.
Because around this time in the movie, they start spending a lot of time together because now Charlize there is
at home being
you know no
no one's paying attention to her
no no because she's got that wig on so she's a
gross hog beast
Keanu Reeves is dating Al Pacino
in this movie
there's a seat they go
salsa dancing
dude you mean the scene where Al Pacino
gets a fucking beege
in public that's
New York
that's when I stop hanging out
with my boss like and it's not
I don't even think it's going to get sexual
between me and my boss but my boss
is way too interested
and taking his dick
out in front of me.
Yep.
Oh, absolutely.
It's a real problem.
I should not be out
with my boss at two in the morning.
I should not be out with my boss
at two in the morning
at a goddamn underground
speakeasy salsa club.
I should not be doing any of that
when he's getting his fucking
non-polished
under a table.
Like, it's just outrageous.
And he's looking at Keanu
the whole goddamn time.
And it's just like,
and Keanu's like just like,
And justifying you like, Mary Ann, he's the head of the goddamn firm.
What am I supposed to do?
Not watch him get his dick set.
And it's like, you want this guy to respect you.
He's your new boss and all.
But like, be assertive.
Say no, I've got plans.
Yes.
Like, you know, you're still going to hit it out of the park because you're Kevin Lomax.
And don't let anybody tell you different.
Don't go out with your boss to the second or third location.
You want to go out after a big case and go to O'Reilly's and pound some down and grab some fucking hamburgers and watch the Nick game.
Once the Nick game ends, you're like, you're like, you're all right, man, the old lady's going to, you know, break my back if I'm not home in 20 minutes.
Yeah, I just sat through four quarters of basketball with you.
Time to go.
Like this.
Also, we live in the same house.
It's weird.
I'm sorry.
This whole situation, I need a place.
It's a beautiful apartment.
Oh, it's gorgeous.
But I would never live in a company.
company apartment wherever I see imagine going to work every day and seeing all those fucking
shit heels every which way and then taking the subway together home and they're your
neighbors and upstairs neighbor speaking of the subway by the way what a stupid thing in this
how al pacino the prince of darkness only travels underground by subway that i believe
because he's a new yorker and all fucking seven million of us do the same
goddamn thing. Also, it's
you know, a wretched hive.
Yeah, yeah. It's disgusting down there. And there's a, there's a lot of
gross stuff. A lot of unwanted things happening. Let's say I've seen people
arrested for playing special places. That's a true life MTA tale.
Can I tell you the one time when I was taking the subway back to the Bronx? I'm just reading a book.
Two o'clock in the morning.
I'm a little drunk.
And an elderly later across the street,
across the way from me is throwing negative energy at me.
She's looking at me with a scowl.
Yeah.
And she's like doing an improv exercise.
She's grabbing up into the end, into nothing.
Oh, no.
Making a fist as if she's grabbed something and then throwing it at me.
Really?
And it's happening.
And it's like negative whoju energy.
Dude, were you, were you starting to feel a little,
she did turn it to a demon for a second like they do in this movie you got cursed i did get
cursed dude i saw is that is that the end of the story i just got to sat there for like seven
stops taking it man oh god i would have moved to another car dude you got a whole clip full
of negative energy she reloaded and reloaded dude when alpuccino is taking him through
chinatown and keanu is just eating loose chicken in his hand and
Al Pacino is like trying to find a restaurant or whatever it is and he starts speaking Chinese quote quote to this Chinese dude and it's just clearly a guy speaking Chinese in an Al Pacino impression.
That's the worst dub I've seen in a long time.
Ni Hao!
Dude, it is out of control.
He's asking for directions to this restaurant.
He's like, I got a fine.
Where's that chicken?
And he goes up to this guy and he just, it's a.
guy doing an Al Pacino impression
in Chinese. It's amazing. That's the
movie I like, though, when he's, like, mixing
in and up with people, when he goes in the subway and
tells that guy to go kill his girlfriend or whatever,
that's kind of a fun scene.
Because he's being allowed to
be the devil. And he's doing
stuff, I suppose, like, ah, what's
coach up to? You know, like
and, like, watching
you know, Craig T. Nelson, be like,
ah, geez, Christine, I can't believe
I killed the maid.
What's Jerry Van Dyke?
say about this. Or Dauber.
Oh, man, Dauber.
I was a big Dauber fan.
Dude, do you think
they're doing this coach
reboot? Do you think Dauber's coming back?
They already...
Yeah, they already pulled the plug. Oh, really?
RIPD, Coach, too.
That's too bad.
Sorry, Craig T. You can't get that
sitcom on the air again.
Not even the devil
himself.
So, I...
CBS is playing for keeps.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
All right, there's so many more dates that Al Pacino and Keanu go on.
Another person that's happy to be associated with the devil, Don King shows.
That's what I was getting to.
Yeah, they go to a boxing match because, come on, Kevin, put your dukes out.
It's Roy Jones Jr. and some other dude, it's back when you could go to Madison Square Garden and watch boxing.
that doesn't really happen anymore
and dude yeah
there struts in Don King himself
Don King
actual colon personal friend of the devil
Totally fun
Oh man
This movie's gotta taking me to task
For being a little bit in league
With Satan
And you know what
Guaranteed Don King didn't get it
Yeah you're right
Like you want me to be in the movie
Like all right I'll be in a movie
He had no fucking clues
He was like, yeah, you're going to get to meet Al Pacino.
Oh, that's fantastic.
And that, but yeah, oh, dude, that, why does a movie, a fucking pseudo-devil legal drama movie need all these cameos?
I don't get it.
Why is this movie chock full of cameos?
Fucking Al Damado, Roy Jones, Jr. Dun King.
There is your extra 24 minutes.
Yes.
This boxing match, among other things.
Yeah, you're totally right.
It'd be great if, like, the son of Sam could have been in the movie, too.
Like, just, oh, thanks, man.
Or justifying his lunacy.
Or he's talking to the dog that told him to do it.
Like Al Pacino's just like, oh, hello, pooch.
Uh-huh.
Thanks for that job you pulled in the Bronx.
Uh-huh.
That job.
Can we talk about, like, this weird sex scene
in this movie.
Yeah, because
Charlie's Theron
has a fucking breakdown
one of many breakdowns
because she's losing her shit
because Tamara Tune
is like turned into
the demons and shit.
Yeah, they go shopping
and she shows her
her demon face
in the dressing room.
But also her breasts
for like 15 solid minutes.
Oh, that's fantastic.
That's why this movie
is in heavy rotation
I'm shit of axe.
Thank you very much,
Tamara Tooney.
You couldn't
do that shot
from behind the back or anything like that
and still accomplish the same thing.
No, I got to see the nips.
Not only that, though, it's a weird
like, just touch it, just touch it.
Come on, just touch it.
The work of Dr. Robert, Dr. Robert.
I'm like, are you quoting
the fucking Beatles song right now?
Like, what is going on?
Like, she says Dr. Robert, like,
12 times in this scene.
And it's just like, I mean, that scene is
Taylor made for Martin Cinemax.
Supposedly they're fake, but you can't tell.
And, God,
Just like, who would want to go out shopping with someone?
And then it's like you got to feel their breasts all night.
Well, you know, if, yeah.
I'm sure there's people that want to do that.
I kind of agree, though.
Like, it's that I understand the social pressure of being in this bizarre building that's only with your husband's coworkers.
Stop hanging out with them.
Yes.
Like, say no.
Get a job.
Join a book group.
Go to fucking Times Square and figure it out.
I don't know.
Make a class. Do something. Don't hang out with these vile women.
Yes. Once, if we, if at the beginning of our friendship, we were like, oh, man, cool.
Let's go try on some pants. Andrew's like, hey, man, look at my balls. I'm like, you know what?
I'm never talking to that guy ever again.
Oh, I mean, you can't even tell I had my ball shot off.
Feel them. Feel them. Feel them again.
It's mainly material from an old pinball machine, but Dr. Robert works miracles.
And one of the things this movie does is really bad C.G.I. Morph.
It's like, it's kind of jump scares, I guess.
I remember actually being in the theaters, and I was a bit of a coward.
I was like, oh, dude, they're so slow.
There's no way this is a jump scare.
And by the way, the final product is fucking Baraka from Mortal Kombat.
Yes, it's all.
That's what it looks like.
They've just got those razor-sharp teeth.
It's like a shark-faced human.
No, they look exactly like Dustal Dawn vampires.
You know, in the middle of Dustal Dawn for some reason,
all the vampires turns into monsters.
And all the vampires have exposed bosom.
Yeah, that's exactly right.
Right there, there it is.
Dude shared cinematic universe, you think?
I think so.
You think the devil ran the titty twister?
I think so.
And I think he also runs Cinemax because that is a double feature.
Oh, yeah.
My favorite two horror movies are the devil's advocate and from Dustal Dawn.
the only thing I regret
is Salma Hyac had too much
clash to take her fucking bra off
if I had to go back in time
and tell Robert Rodriguez
one thing
you know what it would be
she didn't
no she's not naked in that movie
oh wow I don't know what I was thinking
but Quentin Tarantino
certainly sucks on her toe
for 48 seconds
oh man and you know
I think there's an extended edition out there
well speaking of fucking platinum DV
Yeah, the Quentin Tarantino's
Platinum DVD collection.
Ew.
So, hey, you know what?
Jeffrey Jones
drops dead in this movie.
I do want to do the sex scene.
Oh, right?
Oh, the sex scene.
Excuse me.
Sorry.
So, she's all frazzled.
She's had a nervous breakdown.
She's seen the face of true evil, right?
And she comes back and she's like,
oh, my God, Kevin, I can't believe what's going on.
I saw the face of true evil in the
Barney's dressing room.
And I was like, you know, I'm kind of hard right now, baby.
You know?
Well, it's, you know what it is.
the old, our life is crumbling.
Let's fix it with a baby.
Also, Pacino's been buttering.
He's been warming him up all night.
Yeah. He comes home and he's
fucking ready to go.
Listen, honey, I got to meet Don King
this evening. I'm hard as a fucking rock.
I'm harder than his hair.
Let's go.
Honey, I almost started boxing
with this. I almost got in the ring.
I could clobber those guys.
I'm going to beat this man to death with my
dick honey let's make a baby and so that they you know they start fooling around and she instantly turns
into Connie Nielsen because fucking whatever and I mean it's he's like oh that's so much better but not
even that I'd be like oh fuck I'm crazy I got to like if I'm like having sex with my partner and all
of a sudden they're a different person you want a fucking mystique I'm like no no dude you want to
know how to rapidly lose an erection you start fucking
a shapeshifter and you don't know
they're a shapeshifter. Exactly.
What a fright. I think that's in the extended
cut of Star Trek 6 as well.
God.
So, yeah, and she's just like changing
back and forth. Yes.
And he's like, and he's like,
always like disappointed when Charlie's
Theron shows back up. Dude, it's like
turning a light switch on and off. It's like,
I'm excited. Now I'm sad.
I'm excited. Now I'm sad.
Which is crazy.
Totally does.
Also, this is like Martin Cinemax the 3rd's best scene in cinema history because you get double the yeah.
One character, four tiths.
It'd be great if in the middle of this, she turns into Chris Bauer.
You know what I mean?
Like, he looks up and he's like, oh, no, fucking a hog beast.
Special places.
Oh, no, he's covered in syrup.
I've just fucked
1,000 pancakes.
No, no, keep it in. Titties or titties.
Chris Powers.
He's stacked.
We just up the quote at a 6.
I think by Martin Cinemax and Al Pacino is exactly.
That's the same difference.
Stacked like pancakes.
Oh, no, no.
You can't, can you work in another
so we can get some silver dollars
in this picture?
I would like that.
You know, change it up.
And, of course, like most times when you start having sex with your wife,
in the middle of a breakdown, it doesn't end well.
Yeah, nobody really gets to finish.
She's just like, where are you?
What the fuck are you doing?
Why are you calling me Connie Nielsen?
Please stop calling me Connie Nielsen.
Oh, Connie Nielsen.
And then, you know, Kevin is like,
You must be crazy.
Not me.
I'm not crazy.
I'm seeing shit, but you're the one in tears.
I would question my own sanity, Kevin fucking Lomack, son of the devil.
You're suffering from hysteria.
It's a woman's problem.
I'm from Gainesville, Florida.
Craig T. Nell, there's some bullshit.
the insinats of Craigton Nelson's case, who cares?
But basically at the end, Kevin finds out that Craig T. Nelson totally did it.
Totally did it.
Because his mistress, who he's supposed to be having sex with, doesn't know if he's cut or not.
Dude, it's amazing.
Was he circumcised?
Like, they're doing, like, the run-through of the, you know, not interrogation.
But yeah, yeah, yeah.
And he's just like, is he circumcised?
And she's like, hmm.
You've been fucking this man for the better part of a year
And you don't know if he's cut
I mean, I even know my boss is not cut
I mean
That's just something somebody's got to know
So I mean, it matters nothing
It's just like he wins another case
Craig T Nelson's off the hook
Off the hook and out of this movie by the way
Yes
Well, no, he's got one more scene left
Okay
Um, this is the end of Jeffrey Jones.
Oh, man.
Yeah.
So Jeffrey Jones...
My favorite scene in the movie.
Oh, hands down, easily.
So we've seen him, he's having a big shred fest.
You know that, like, his character, again, named Eddie Bazoon, is, you know, he's not
on the up and up.
Kianu, like, catches him shredding a bunch of shit.
So then Al Pacino, you know, devil nepotism, makes his son a partner.
And so because they live in the same building, they're constantly running in
to co-workers. And so he's like, he's like, oh, I saw your names on a placard now and
whatever. Like, way to go. You fucked me. You went around me. Blah, blah, blah. And he goes
for a jog. He says, oh, the next time the Justice Department calls, I'm probably going to pick
up. And it's a good delivery. It's a nice Jeffrey Jones. He's been helping the devil by shredding
all this shit. Here's a question. Yes. Does Jeffrey Jones know that the devil's the devil and
or does Craig T. Nelson know that the devil is the devil?
Because they both are like, what are you thinking right now, the devil?
They're always like going against, I'm like, if I'm working for the devil, I'm like, hey, man, whatever you say goes.
Yeah, I feel like if you are an employee of that law firm, like if you pass your six-month probationary period, which Keanu is still in, you know the score.
Yeah, I feel like Craig D. Nelson kind of has an idea, but he doesn't work for them.
Okay, that's true.
So he's like, it's kind of like, you're like, yeah, that dude's the devil, but he's doing great things for me, so I'm not going to say anything and, you know, ruin the deal.
But like, you know, Jeffrey Jones is like, my parking space, the devil, I'm not, I'm fucking keeping my fat mouth shut.
Because that's all, that's, it's just, listen, dude, you work with anybody long enough, you're going to start getting fast and loose with them.
Also, yeah, you also want to rise up in the ghoulish ranks and you know your soul is.
damned. I mean, you've got to show a little initiative.
That's fair, yeah. And you
want to brush up against the heavies
every so often. So Keanu
goes to see Al Pacino and he's
like, you know, hey, what's
going on? Why did I get this promotion?
What's Eddie Barzune doing?
And Al Pacino
launches into this monologue.
This is like one of two.
I had this
Eddie Barzun monologue on a
Winamp file.
I did not. I certainly did.
Holy, moly.
You mix this in with some switch foot?
Yes.
Not switch foot.
Oh, pardon me, Power Man, 5,000.
Popperoach, the mud vein was going on.
Stained.
A little bit of stain.
Literally anything by Aaron Lewis.
Static X, you know, and then all of a sudden, Pacito,
like, Eddie Bazood, God's special little creature.
What's amazing is one of the details he gives is something about, like,
he's helped.
And what did he say?
He's like, Eddie Barzoon got him through three horrific divorces, one massive cocaine addiction, and one knocked-up babysitter.
Like something like that, you're just like, yeah, Eddie Barzoon was comfortable working with the devil.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I can do whatever I want.
My boss is the devil.
He's going to get me out of it.
Don't worry about it.
Also a nice touch as he says, Eddie Barzoon, 250 pounds.
You think Jeffrey Jones was privy to that part of the script
Or he went to the devil's advocate premiere and was like, hey.
I think it was a hey to do it.
For this scene, Jeffrey, you just get your sides and we'll pick, yeah, don't worry about it.
Eddie Barzune makes a mistake of running on to the haunted path from Ghostbusters 2.
It's the Central Park Reservoir.
It's the exact same path where they.
They catch that runner.
And there's a couple of ghosts behind him.
And he's like, hey, he's like, hey, watch where you go.
Oh, ghost.
Oh, no, I got bumped into by a ghost.
But he's still a dick to everybody.
He still doesn't even really care.
No, I know.
He's just like, ah, fucking Manhattan ghosts.
I'm a low-level ghoul.
I know the score.
I've been living at 666 Park Avenue for quite some time.
I'm well aware.
Let me tell you something.
I watched more than.
that show than I had any
business watching. I think
I was the only one tuning in at the end.
It was just you.
It was just me and whoever was on that show.
John Locke. So he's
just spitting, he's
dropping a fat fucking deuce on Eddie
Barzoon, right? A hot
verse about Eddie Barzune. He's really
throwing him under the devil bus.
I think this is so much better.
This scene is so much better than the end of the
movie and it's the same grandstanding that
Pacino does at the end. Yes. But it's
really short. It's intercut
with interesting visuals and it works. Yeah, you're looking
at other things behind. Besides
him dancing. This is the best part
of the movie. It is. It also climaxes
with him being beaten to death by
demon hobos.
These are hobos
with demon faces. Oh man.
It's pretty great. They trip him
and somebody's like, one of them's like, give me your watch
and he's like, no, you got to take it.
I'm like, dude, are you kidding me?
You're Eddie Barzoon. You can afford a new watch.
Yeah, who can't.
Number one, dangerous hobo, who, ha, do what they say.
Number two.
Especially if you're on the ground already and you're morbidly obese.
Yeah, you're more than 50 pounds.
You're on the ground, you're injured, you're surrounded by two hobos armed with branches.
Branches, by the way.
You're beaten in death by nature.
Yeah, and they're also devilish in origin.
you give up the fucking watch.
Seriously.
30 seconds ago when you were bad-mouthing your boss,
the devil, and you're like, oh, wait.
Does this have anything connection to that?
It's the ghosts and the demon hobos.
Are you independent demons?
Are you working for John Milton?
It is almost as if he forgets that.
Lucifer himself is signing the checks.
And he starts running his mouth to this dude.
And these creatures just beat him to death.
There's a great, like, arm break.
Oh, that's a good one.
Oh, God.
And Jeffrey Jones is just screaming.
Oh, man.
I was wondering while watching this
if this is going to happen to him in the afterlife.
Oh, guaranteed.
Yeah.
There's a special place in hell for Jeffrey Jones.
Special places.
Allegedly, I think.
Or, you know, maybe let's not get sued.
Yeah, you know, we don't know the extent of the troubles.
But, you know, they were the troubles.
They were the troubles.
And he can't shake the troubles.
So he dies.
And Connie Nielsen starts crying.
Oh my God, Eddie Barzoon died.
Dude, this office is a wreck over the death of Eddie Barzoon.
One of their own ghouls has been set home, I guess.
It's a real sad story.
And this is when we go to Eddie Barzun's funeral.
At this point, I'm sorry, this is when Charlize is in the church and reveals that she's been like clawed up to shit.
And she claims that Al Pacino raped her.
Yes.
And he's like, how could he rape you?
He was with me the whole damn day.
We went salsa dancing.
We went on the high line together.
Listen, he talked to me for 58 minutes about Eddie Barzoon.
It was really long.
I was getting really fucking bored.
Tell me, does he have his foreskins?
He's asking everybody that.
Is he cut or what?
You don't know, do you?
Eddie Barzune was cut.
That's why I'm the greatest lawyer in New York.
York City. Craig T. Nelson
has his foreskin.
That's why I get paid the big bucks.
We're at this fucking funeral.
At this point, he commits
Oh yeah, she goes, she goes
into an asylum. To the worst asylum in
his hands down. By the way, no one
ever fucking thinks of
maybe send her back to Florida
for a little while. You know, get her
out of the city. This is a growing up. Kianna Reeves is
having it. Of all people, Al Pacino
suggests it. And also
the mother visits briefly.
Oh, his mother character. Who could possibly
care? Yeah. She's a real
Bible, babbling so-and-so.
She looks exactly like Alice from
Yes. Brady Bunch. Thank you
so much. It's a cross of Alice
and the woman who plays
Sparkle motion. Yes.
Yes. I thought it was her.
It's not her. I guess it's not her.
No, it's not her. It's some other lady.
But
it's great so I commit my wife
to an insane asylum
and I'm such a piece
and he truly loves her like that's what the movie tells you
but you're going to go to your mortal enemy's funeral
you're going to like walk away from your personal
tragedy I gotta pay my respect
to Eddie Barsoon and you know
why because it's the fucking social
event of the mum let me tell you
the chit chat that is going
on during Eddie Barsoon's funeral
is unacceptable all of his old clients
are up for grabs and they're there
No, it's all of that.
Craig T. Nelson's there.
Kind of like massaging his
stepdaughter, which is, it's a weird
subplot that goes fucking nowhere.
Zero places. Kiana Reeves envisions
that that's Chris Bauer for a second, but
nobody cares. This movie doesn't give
his shit. But Tamara Tooney
and what's her
face?
Connie Nielsen. Connie Nielsen. I was the only
other actress who's not Charlie's Darren in this
movie. Are they're
like, and they're just like chatting with
Keanu Reeves just talking through this funeral.
And it's not even like, hey, we're in a church and we have to whisper.
So how's your wife doing?
Oh, it is just so sad that she was committed.
Oh, you look fantastic at this funeral.
And he doesn't see demon faces here.
This is also the scene when Pacino shows up and he does his little dance around the holy water.
Oh, yeah.
He's looking at all the stained glass pictures.
So Keanu then meets this Justice Department fellow on the street who,
This is like, this dude's 75 seconds.
Yeah, it gives him the whole spiel about the evil things.
No, no.
And he also at the end says, and we found a, you know, Gettys was Chris Bauer, was found in Florida Day with a girl in his trunk, a 10-year-old girl.
Yeah, so that's like, all right, Keanu, like, you stepped over the line, like, defending people you knew were guilty, blah, blah, blah.
What he also says is that Eddie Bazoon was ready to testify.
And it's like, okay.
Why would you testify against the devil?
Like what you know, like the only way to do that is if I'd be like, hey dude, are you an angel?
Like the only person that could actually help me right now would be an angel.
Listen, you're saying that you work for the Justice Department, but are you Justice Department agent Clarence?
Because that's the only deal I'm going to take.
Well, no, that's the thing to speak to your supervisor, Mr. Christ.
Eddie Barzoon would testify again.
the devil. That's the problem.
Eddie Barzoon flew a little
too close to the side. I see what you're saying.
So this guy gets hit by a car.
Like, nobody's... Listen, you
see this coming a mile away.
This is also like
his finger, Al Pacino's
dirty old man finger in the
puddle in the church.
I guess it's called the Holy Water.
Yes.
Makes a car hit this guy.
It makes a car come
to life.
No, I think someone's driving the car.
I know, but then I guess the holy bubbles
bubbled in their brain to hit someone with a car.
It is a synchronized hit, I agree.
It is.
It's definite, there's a correlation.
It'd be great if Ceribus was driving.
Like, you'd just see, like, just three-headed dog.
Well, no one's going to believe that three-headed dog was driving the car.
So this dude's dead, and it doesn't matter.
But this guy gets punted.
Like, he fucking goes for a ride after get hit.
by this guy. Dude, his head looks like a fucking
Gallagher watermelon at the end of a set.
He's like, well, I guess I better
go back to my wife who's legally insane
now. And he
goes there and
it's like we said, the worst
state running, mental institution, this guy's a
millionaire. It should be the best.
They have her in this hotel room
with chairs and all this stuff
and like, it's nice
but it doesn't work out very well.
And also, this is like a ghost
town. There's like,
a nurse for this whole floor
you never see a doctor
in this movie at all
and she's just sitting there
she's totally like zoned out like a vegetable
the mother has come back up from Florida
and like through this whole thing
all this is going on she's like
by the way
I have been to New York City before
I lied to you that last time
and he's like mom
what are you trying to say
and I'm sitting there like your father's the devil
your father's the devil
your father's devil she fucked the devil
Well, she went to like some cafe and a smooth talking waiter.
Oh, well, yeah, she came to New York.
The devil waiting table.
By the way, you want to talk about a waste of fucking time.
She came to New York City on a missionary mission.
You're not converting anyone in Queens.
That's what I mean.
Like, no one in New York City is being converted to shit.
No.
So that's what she says.
They came on this missionary trip.
They stayed in the same hotel.
And he was just a nice little waiter.
and we saw him every night
and that final night
it was raining
and I got wet
and we were just horny as hell
She also makes a point to say
that she was 16 years old
Oh yeah
Well only the devil
16 years old
And at this point
While she's telling him this story
Keanu Reeves
Has a secretary
Who's also a demon
Who's like
Oh Peg
Pam
Oh Pam sorry
Charlize they're on
You're so pretty
look how pretty you are
and it's just it's just Pam and this
woman no nurses to be found
no real like there's one other
patient in this hospital where are the
big fucking orderlies that could break through
everything which are in every mental institution
because you need them yeah or where's chief
where is chief great question
and you know she shows her
and she's like oh wow I am Charlie Sterron
that's not too bad and then she looks over Pam
and she's a demon yes
and a mirror breaks she attacks her
and at this point she closes her door
and puts a chair up to the door
thus making it impossible for anyone to break through
which is you know why if you're designing the room
for a mental patient who's on suicide watch
make sure that shit can't happen
or make sure there's two doors
or an outward opening door
you know what I mean like every door opens outward
for that exact reason dude you should not be able to pull off
the old Hollywood chair prop
in a mental institution.
No, not at all.
And so she takes a shardom mirror
and cuts her own throat.
And Keanu's going nuts.
And this is when he goes
a little bit over the top.
He's, yeah.
I think because he's gearing up
to have a screaming match
with Al Pacino in the next scene.
So he's like screaming
at dead Charlize Theron, you know?
Oh, babe.
Oh, my God, babe.
And what's amazing, though, is like,
he walks out.
The mother's just sitting
in the waiting room,
again, of this empty.
fucking hospital and he comes out he's covered in blood and he's just like a reservoir dog at the end of this movie
yeah a jewel heist did go south on him and he's just like very calmly like finish the story
and she's like I fuck the devil and that dude's your father you know and so he's like all right well
I got to go here's and I'm like all right here's the big face up because admittedly I didn't
remember much about this movie by the way in case you were wondering when
Charlie Seron takes her life, there is time
for a full three act with commercials
Great Twilight Zone episode to happen.
It's 30 minutes.
30 minutes left at this movie.
You're totally right.
When she ends her life, when there should be like nine.
We start like a little tiny one act play.
Yep.
Because we get to Al Pacino's big fucking devil off us.
Can we just do the really quick thing when the world stops
and he's walking through New York?
Oh, yeah.
And there's the big, nobody.
beats the whiz side that he's walking past.
Oh my God.
Speaking of Manhattan, completely empty.
It's fucking heaven.
What's heaven doing in this movie?
So he shows up to Al Pacino's penthouse.
And we can start talking about this stupid fucking sculpture.
Oh, man.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
It's, I believe, brimstone.
Oh, the TV show Brimstone.
No, no, no.
I believe it's, yeah, from the, the,
Owls of Hades.
Oh, you know, you're paying a lot in shipping costs to get that up to Manhattan.
Well, you know, you're the devil.
Spare no expense if you're safe.
Move mountains.
There was some thing, speaking of IMDB trivia, that I remembered, about like, this sculptor sued the shit out of them for some reason.
They had to change, whatever it is.
So this thing's coming to life, and it's terrifying.
And it's stupid because it doesn't do anything.
Like, if you're making a statue come to life, it needs to come off the wall and, like, fight him or something.
Well, there's, like, little stone people having orgies.
Or it would be great if Eddie Barzun was part of it.
Like, you know what it was?
It was like Freddie Kruger and all the souls of the Elm Street kids are in his chest.
Yes, exactly.
Like a big fat Jeffrey Jones statue.
Like, oh, this statue just fell off the wall because it gained 250 pounds.
That's a load-bear-in ball, Eddie.
So, I mean, this is, Pacino just goes into this whole fucking thing.
And it's like, I've been waiting a long time for you, kids.
you know, here's your sister, you got a fucker, and I want to do this.
And what doesn't make any sense, though, and as far as my understanding,
because this is also, not only we're trying to be Rosemary's baby and fucking Law & Order SVU,
we're also trying to be the Omen.
Yes.
And the whole thing is, and he's like, you know, oh, I'll get it.
You're trying to make the Antichrist.
And I was like, well, didn't the Omen tell us that, like,
Damien was the son of the devil and that was the Antichrist?
So wouldn't Keanu Reeves be the Antichrist?
And this kid's just going to be the devil's grandchild?
Which that's a fucking Tom Clancy novel title.
Well, I guess the idea is like super bad because it's incest also.
Oh, sure.
I guess, yeah, I don't know.
And the weird thing is he's fucking Connie Niels in this whole movie.
There's like scenes where like he's going up in an elevator.
There's a great scene where like they took Keanu Rees's mother out to dinner and like they're all going inside the apartment.
He's like, hey Keanu, you want to go to?
upstairs for a cocktail and it's like Connie Nielsen and this other woman make it out
and he's like that's right you want to have an orgy with your boss no I don't let's finish this
date off right there's more Christopher Lloyd than not so I mean it's just whatever there's there's
no way to recount this monologue because it's 25 minutes of him hoo-ha and all over the
one thing I hate is in the middle of it he like recounts a line from Keanu Reeves and they
just like ADR the
the Keanu Reeves dialogue.
Oh yeah, he talks like Keanu Reeves
for no reason.
That's the laziest
like fake special effect
that somebody has like mystical power.
It's a fake power.
How about when he starts
singing that goddamn song?
Holy.
Oh, well that was the thing
that I wasn't sure about
because you see the record
get put on and I was like
Oh, is this a spike
lip sync battle?
Well, I was like, is it
the record or is Al Pacino?
know, as the devil singing like Frank Sinatra.
Like that's, but...
Oh, maybe he was Frank Sinatra.
Oh, well, that makes fucking sense.
Well, he does say in the middle of this enormous monologue that he has so many children.
Like, he's like, oh, I've had a lot of disappointments, Kevin.
My disappointing son, entertainer, Frank Sinatra.
The mafia didn't really work out for him.
But whatever.
So the end of it is like, you got to fuck your sister and make the Antichrist and can't...
Well, I'm here.
Oh, I'm going to watch.
I'm going to hold your sister's hand while you do it.
His shirt is already open.
Yeah, exactly.
I don't think you might join in.
Yeah, mind if I get in on this?
He's going to have some busy digits while this shit's going on.
I might be teabagging one of use.
And I mean, like, that's the thing.
It's like, he starts negotiating his thing.
He's like, well, dad, I won't, this, that, and the other thing.
By the way, could you be in the next room when this happens?
Yeah, really?
That's a term of this.
Yes, exactly.
You mind being, like, away from me while this?
goes down. And this is the biggest
point of, just
nonsense in this movie.
Here's a quick question. Oh, okay.
Genetically, like
he's John Milton
and like that's a
biological form, right? Right. Yeah.
Does that mean like
Keanu Reeves is supposed to look anything
like Al Pacino and or
that Connie Nielsen supposed to look
anything like Al Pacino?
Oh, yeah, I don't know.
Keanu has dark hair
and Al Pacino has dark hair.
Oh, sure.
Keanu is a human being.
John Milton is supposed to be a human being, a human being.
So, yeah, buy it.
And let's move on.
And his mother's like 4-8-2.
She's like a little Rea-Purlman.
Like, it's like, dude, this guy's six-foot-three.
Yeah, that's true.
I don't know.
Maybe there's, it skips a generation.
So God is really tall.
Yeah, why not?
So somehow Al Pacino as the devil doesn't think about that gun that Keanu
has in his pocket that he used to shoot Al Pacino at the start of this whole thing.
Oh, right, yeah.
And you get that scene like Pacino like the squibs are going off and he's like,
oh, yeah, oh, do it again.
Oh, it feels great.
Oh, Dunkerino.
And it's not, but the funny thing is like at that point,
I guess some idiot in the audience supposed to drop their jaw.
like he was the devil the whole time so keanu is like all right dad you're right free will right well here
we go and he pulls the gun out and blows his fucking brains out and i'm like um john milton as the devil
how did you not see this comment yep how did you not see this play what are you talking about
how is this allowed to happen in the devil's office oh only the devil's son can fool the devil
So he gets really mad
And he bursts flames out of his butthole
And he flies all over the room
And dude cooks that sister up
Al Pacino fucking sets on fire in this movie
For no reason
He turns into a demon for two seconds
Little bit
And it's weird he's like blue
Like I don't know what's going on
There's no fucking horns
There's no pointy cape
Like come on
Yeah I don't get a close up of those goat feet
Which I know we're there
I saw those shoes on the roof
God damn it
that's what I want
the end of that great twilight zone
with the howling man
when like it's this guy
and like you know
at the end there's that great scene
where he's like going
from thing to thing
and like he becomes more
and more cartoonishly
the devil
until at the end
he's exactly the lamest guy
at your office Halloween party
but like that's what I want at the end
is like he just finally has the fucking
widows peak and everything
but we don't get that
instead the movie just resets
and remember that bathroom scene
we told you about
we're back in the bathroom and he's washing
his fucking face off in the sink.
We're back in Gainesville, Florida.
It's the court trial.
No one ever wants to have happened.
Go back to Gainesville.
Yeah, with a hog beast.
Yeah, we're back to the Hogbeast trial.
In the middle of Alapitino's conno's conno
as the devil, he turns into Keanu Reeves,
like as the fallen angel, which is so stupid.
He sprouts wings and a Keanu Reeves face
and gets Jesus hair and screams,
but it's Keanu Reeves,
screaming in the voice of Al Pacino.
So you're, I guess,
in this idea of biology,
he's going to grow up to look like Al Pacino?
Question much.
So he's going to shrink two and a half feet.
I guess that was,
that was the more,
you know, Lucifer or the fallen age.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Wow, it's adding up.
12 years of Catholic school, Eric,
don't worry about it.
Okay. You're here with a semi-pro.
Okay, good.
Because I'm an amateur.
So, you know, Kiana Reeves is like,
you know what? I'm just going to blow this whole thing.
He goes back.
in the courtroom, he's like, you know what, this guy
is a rapist, and I'm not going to defend him
and, Your Honor, I quit. And he
runs out, and it's like, oh, I'm going to be disbarred,
this, that, and the other thing. By the way, all you're doing is
giving this guy the best mistrial
in history. Yeah. You're not
exactly saving the day.
No. And so then
it's like, that reporter
comes back out, and he's just like, we
got to talk about this. This is 60 minutes.
This is the New York Times. This is big stuff.
It's a wire story, blah, blah, blah.
And he's like, I'm probably going to get
fired so I'll see you later or whatever
and they walk away and the
fucking last shot of this movie is this
reporter morphing
into Al Pacino and he's
like vanity my favorite
scene
and fucking fire comes
up and he's laughing his balls off
and paint it black shows it's a
it's a bad movie hat trick
because it's we're breaking the fourth
wall we're using terrible special
effects yeah and we're playing
the most obvious music cue to end
your movie. It's also like we're going to do
the cop out ending and then
we're going to because it's like oh wow
that's pretty brave did we shut the movie
like no no it's going to end the same way because the
devil always wins. Well what are we
to believe that it's just going to start all over
again? There's another devil's advocate to watch
I'm not doing it. Does this count as a sequel set of?
It's going to be like a pun off
of some type of press
or vanity devil
whatever. What a better
ending is if Keanu
Rieges just kills himself and thwarts the devil
like, he'd shit the devil. That's it. I mean like
But suicides a sin, Steve, so he's going
to hell though. But he knows that because he's
a really good Christian. And also, think
about this, now they got that mistrial. Now this
poor molested girl has to go back
up on the stand again and then get
berated by another lawyer. Yeah, you're totally right.
There's no way this ending is
working out for anybody. Nobody. And it's
just like, who cares why throw
your movie in the garbage after a
two and a, to have a two and a half hour movie
end with a wink and a here
we go again, I want to break something.
My favorite sin.
And then Princess Daisy
kicks down the wall.
You're not going to believe this
Al Pacino. Would anybody
recommend this movie?
No.
It's got,
this movie has about as many
beginnings as Lord
of the Rings has ending.
Because you could have started this movie four or five times
You could start with just them moving into the apartment building
You could start any old time
You can cut three or four subplots
It's just bloated
Aside of the Eddie Barzune scene
Like I don't see there's a lot of value here
That ending monologue thing
Which I really loved as a kid
It's just bloated and just like come on
Yeah
If you find yourself in the late 1990s
I would say definitely see it
Get that plastic of DVD.
You never know.
This is out broadcasted.
Time travelers, interdimensional aliens, whatever may be listening.
Sure.
It might.
It's totally true.
That's possible.
But I would say don't see it otherwise.
I would say this is what I want to throw out because I'm not sure myself.
Is this a hangover movie?
I think it is.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's where, because it's long.
You're spending four hours on TNT with this movie.
That's a good call.
If you're fucking hungover
a shit, throw this on.
Yeah, you're right.
I feel like that's the only way
I'm watching this again.
TNT! They don't got the tits on TNT.
You've got to go over the shit of axe for that.
He's got a point.
You might want to get the full cut.
You want to pay for the premium package?
Craig T. Nelson's full cut.
Oh, geez, Christine.
That's the devil's advocate from 1997,
directed by Taylor Hackford.

Thank you very much to Connor
for calling in and everybody else
who called in for requests for listener request
month. We might as well talk about what our next
request month is going to be. It's a little different
and I believe it's in March.
March.
Lottery. Usually when we do these things we kind of
vet them, we try and find stuff that's going to work
blah, blah, blah. What's a good call? What's not a good call?
We're literally going to take all your calls and just dump them in a hat and pick them out.
Well, there'll be a small amount of vetting. Like, if you call on with a movie we've said we won't do or we...
Qualifying calls.
Exactly. Like, calls that make the cut, because there's so, like, there's so many calls and then there's so many calls that make the cut.
So we're going to do a lottery of the calls that make the cut.
And it's the only fair way we think because there's so many people who take the time to call in and like, oh, there's four slots.
But this time, you know, everybody's got almost an equal chance to get in.
And the thing about it is you're going to know what the movies are going to be in advance
because we're going to broadcast it on Periscope.
Yep. It's going to happen.
Right. You'll have the whole month planned out then.
I think we might do this in March.
Yep.
So...
I'm going to say this is probably a 98% chance we're going to do Cool World because everybody calls me Cool World.
So that's, you know, look forward to March.
Next month, by the way, kicking off the Halloween spooktacular.
