Werewolf Ambulance: A Horror Movie Comedy Podcast - Episode 404- They Live (1988)

Episode Date: November 14, 2022

In this week's episode, it's a listener pick! We're covering the 1988 'peak John Carpenter' film "They Live." Special topics for your consideration include: how far two fantastic leads can carry a fil...m, the natural conclusion of the Reagan era, rull toothy faces, big ideas that leave some...unanswered questions, and our attempt to determine which actor has appeared in the most WWA movies without actually looking it up or doing any research or anything useful like that. Interested in other 'peak JC'? Allen would have you believe that also includes Episode 79- "Prince of Darkness." You can also hear us discuss JC's other non-"Halloween" films in Episode 112- "Christine," Episode 129- "The Fog," Episode 142- "In the Mouth of Madness," and Episode 272- "Village of the Damned." We've also covered two of his action movies on our Patreon with "Big Trouble in Little China" and "Escape from New York" and I promise, you will not regret giving us your money with those ones.

Starting point is 00:00:00 Kedy. I came to podcast and chew bubble gum and I'm all out of bubble gum. What does that have to do with this? We never see him chewing gum. It's just one of his many pithy one-liners. It's just one of his many pithy one-liners. No, it's his one-pithy one-liners. Oh, no, there's more. I can't wait to hear you tell me about them. What are we talking about this week on our show WhereWolf Ambulance, in which you are Alan and I'm Katie. And this is a listener suggestion from our buddy, Roland. Thanks, th get into it. Read it. I will. Okay. Look at me, I'm a reader.
Starting point is 00:00:45 I have too many things to read that I can't read this. Read. I'm so sorry, Roland. I've let you mean everyone else down. Rolins let me down a little on this one. I've got to be honest with you. Hard disagree. be the perfection, the literal 10 out of 10 movie that it is. Are you preemptively giving this a 10?
Starting point is 00:01:07 Are you giving us a preview of later? I may indeed be. Oh, dude. My first note, peak JC. 1988, baby. Oh my god, it's so mmm. And Roddy Piper's here. Yeah, and Keith David.
Starting point is 00:01:25 I love both of them very much. Yeah, yeah. And Meg Foster is no slouch. Her eyes, she's the most, the lightest colored eyes I've ever seen on him. You want to go ice skating on them. They're so blue. Yeah. And I love Piper. I just do. the the greatest heel of all time in my opinion. Yeah. He's one of the best on the mic.
Starting point is 00:01:45 He's, which I expected him to be a lot more emotive in this. I don't think I'd ever really seen him act before outside of being Rowdy Ron Piper. I just, I guess based on Piper's pit, I expected him to be more emotive. Well, his role as his role as Nada. Is that his name? This his character name's name. I I I I I I I I I I I his character character character character character. I I I I I I's his character. I's his character. I's his character. I's his character. I's his character. I's his character. I's his character. I's his character. I's his character. I's his character. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm the the the the the the the the the the the their. I'm.

I'm the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the his name? Is this character's name? I feel like they never say it. They don't. No. Because he has no name, Nata. That just means nothing though, doesn't it? Yeah. All right. His character is like so, so John Wainian, like, just here to kick ass, chew bubble gum. Oh, a lot of bubble gum. Yeah. I think he did a bunch of Christian cinema too. Oh did he? Piper did, yeah, at least a handful of films. He's Canadian as fuck. Yeah. There's points in this movie's where he's yelling and he's just like might as well be yelling, oh boot the whole time. Yeah. I think he might be a cousin of the hearts actually. Yeah. I think he might thi might he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he might be might be might be might th th th th th th th th thi might thi might thi might thi might thi might thi might thi might thi might thi might thi might thi might thi might thi might might thi.

Starting point is 00:02:46 Do you watch this on the DVD that you own of this movie? No, you did the. Okay. Mm-hmm. Yeah. I also like that Buck Flowers is very high up in the listing of characters. He has a prominent role in this. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:59 And you never really get to see Buck flowers where to to to to to to to the to the to the to the to the to the the to the the to to the the to the the the to be flowers wear a tuxedo otherwise, do you? Man, I love it when a director has a stable. Yeah. And just like, yeah, you'll be great for whatever this role is. Yeah, we've written five roles and you five are in them. Yeah. Okay, so this movie opens on Piper. And he is, uh, walking in the train yard. Hint into downtown LLA?
Starting point is 00:03:26 Which I feel like you don't see? LLA. LLA. I like to think of what that might be, other than Los Angeles. Lousy Los Angeles. Lovely Los Angeles. I don't think anyone would say that either. Especially not downtown. Sure. Downtown has come back around. Yeah. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I tho. I tho. I tho. I tho. I tho. I tho. I tho. I tho. I tho. I tho. I tho. I tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. thi. tho. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I th. I th. I th. I th. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L.

Sure, downtown has come back around. Yeah. Yeah. I only
Starting point is 00:03:45 know this because I went to, I was there for work and I was downtown and I saw all these people wearing basketball jerseys and I was like, oh fuck they actually like basketball here. They're just like not wearing them ironically. Because it's hot out. Yeah. And I think there was a basketball game game. Oh, the clippers. Okay. Yeah, ah, th. And I. And I. And I. And I. And I. And I. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. Yeah. Yeah. th. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. Yeah. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.. Yeah.. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah...... Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.. Yeah.. Yeah. LA Lakers, fast break takers. I think it was the other one. Oh, the clippers. The clippers. Okay. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:07 Ah, wait, maybe not. I don't know much about no basketball. Was LeBron involved? Can't say. Okay. Couldn't tell you. Basically, my story is basketball? That's my story. They were shooting bricks. Yeah, I presume.
Starting point is 00:04:28 So we see him kind of like wandering around downtown. He goes to an employment agency and they're like, you're homeless, we can't do anything for you. Yeah. And he's like real people watching while he's walking around. He is. Got his eyes on everybody. He's an observer for sure. And I was really surprised at a no point did he talk about being a Vietnam vet? Because he's got Vietnam vet written all over him. He sure does. He's also absolutely rippling. Like he's like he's sleeping rough but he's hit in the gymnasium. You know what I mean? He's still, I mean, he and John Carverner met in 87 at a
Starting point is 00:05:07 wrestle mania. Oh, nice. And they hit it off and that's why he's in this movie. Did you see a wrestling fan? Oh yeah. I didn't know that. Weed? VIII.
Starting point is 00:05:16 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He's me minus heavy metal. Oh, I'm sorry I saw Slayer paid a lot of money to do so. I'm sorry you're so jealous that I saw Slayer and you didn't. I don't know if Dave Lombardo was there, I don't remember. I didn't know enough at the time to say. Anyway. So he sees this blind street preacher, preaching this like very apocalyptic dystopian.
Starting point is 00:05:44 They're watching us. they're controlling us, right. And then sort of wanders into a construction site and gets a job because he has his own tools. He does, but the the foreman is very skeptical of him. Yeah. Yeah. It's like we're a union shop and he's like well like can I speak with the shop steward? Yeah he he does a great job. Yeah I'll join the union. And the the the the the the th. And I the th. And I th. And I th. And I the th. And I the th. Yeah. Yeah. th. th. th. the th. th. the th. th. the th. th. th. th. th. thi thi thi the. the. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. the the. the. And I the. And the. the. the. the the. the the. the the the. the. the. the. the. th shop steward? Yeah, he does a great job. Yeah, I'll join the union. And I like that he's like, got his shirt off and he's digging up something. He's just wildly digging at the earth. I don't even think that's his job. I'm just, he's going ham with a shovel.
Starting point is 00:06:17 It's why I know. the score. I mean, like you know I'm generally a fan of John Carpenter scores. The score in this is so bad. What? Bow bow? Bow. Bow. It's just, it just goes and goes and goes until you realize you've been clenching your teeth for the last 10 minutes. It's that blues rock tension that's going to keep us a good. Light harmonica in the background. I gotta tell you, I don't like a harmonica. What? Period. I don't like a harmonica. There's nothing good about a harmonica. You might have when you're in jail and you gotta play the harmonica. I've not been. Well, you simply must.
Starting point is 00:06:57 I think I'll go with a pan flute. I don't even know what you just said. Sam Fear was the master of the pan flute that had infomercials in the 80s. Oh, nice. Great. Oh, give it a gug. Don't. And you won't because you already forgot. I already forgot. So while he's going ham with the shovel, he gets peeped on by Keith David.
Starting point is 00:07:23 Oh, that guy's really got a good shovel technique. Keith David also rippling in a purple tank top. Holy ghost, David's so sexy. He's just a cool, motherfucking dude. So cool. He shows up in so many horror documentaries as a talking head. And every time I'm like, you're so fucking area-dite and just like on point with this shit like yeah and he looks good round glasses which not a lot of people do. Piper also was by all accounts a
Starting point is 00:07:50 great man. Oh yeah yeah yeah everyone yeah yeah yeah yeah for sure yeah didn't pull the ladder up after him either as they say you know like he helped other people come up yeah got you got a wrestling term like a ladder match no no no like I like to use that a tho tho the women who don't to help the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the tho. tho. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the the the the the that a wrestling term like a ladder match? No, no, no. Like I like to use that a lot for women who don't help other women in the workplace, pull them the ladder up, in the workplace, pulling the ladder up after them. That seems quaintly old timey of you. I like it. Really? I feel like it's a little bit horror movie. Like, pulling the ladder up and leaving you stuck down here. Sure, sure. That's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's the way. That's the way. the way. the way. the way. the way. the way. the way. the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way. the way the way the way. the way. the latter. the latter. the latter. the the the latter. the the the latter. the latter. the latter. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's why. It's why. It's why. It's why. It's why. I. th. I. I's why. I's why. I's why. I's why. I's why. I the th. I the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. Being a real just- but not all of them because like as the viral tweet says what's the viral tweet? I don't support all women some of you bitches are very bad or something like that I don't know. Yes most women. Yeah. So yeah he sees him and he's like hey if you need a
Starting point is 00:08:42 place to stay Justiceville is just down the road and you can get a meal there. And a place to stay, and he says, Piper's response is nothing. Yeah, he just ignores this man's kindness. And then follows him for blocks and blocks and blocks. But then all of a sudden they're together? Yeah, David's like, I don't like people following people and I don't know people and I don't know where they're going. Oh my God. He's also wearing a wedding ring, is Piper.
Starting point is 00:09:08 Yeah. Yeah, and that never comes up, does it? I think that's just the traditional thing of men don't take off their wedding rings. So he's probably married IRL and did not want to bonds of matrimony. Right. Yeah. Too bad. Especially if you're correct and he was like pretty Christian, that would be a thing that... Yeah, I don't know. I mean, I know his last film was a Christian movie.
Starting point is 00:09:33 Was it? Yeah. I know he's done at least one other because I heard it on God-awful movies OK. With Eli Bosnik So, yeah, I don't th, was really Christian or if he just really liked acting? I don't know. The only other movie I know about,
Starting point is 00:09:48 he did a movie called Hell Comes to Frogtown. I don't know that. Which is like a horror movie that he did. Okay. Yeah, with a great weird title. Maybe he just wanted to work. Yeah, yeah, why not? I don't mean to imply that I should be surprised that a Christian's a nice man. But you're supposed to be, that's your fucking job. It's right there in the name, Christ and all that.
Starting point is 00:10:07 Some of my favorite people are Christians. Yeah. I was raised by like Catholic grandparents who are the kindest people in the world. By all accounts, the nicest people ever. Yeah. Anyway, so they show up to Justice Phil and this guy, Jason Peter I think is his name. Peter Jason. I mean you can confuse my, you can understand my confusion. Of course. He has been in maybe the most movies we've ever done. I think at least five I counted. Yeah. He's like, hey you've got
Starting point is 00:10:38 those tools, can you help me fix something? It's like sir, he has spent all day doing construction. We could really use your help on the plumbing over there. Plumbing, that's that's th. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You you. You you. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. Yeah. You. You. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. you you th. you you you you you you you you you construction. We could really use your help on the plumbing over there! Plumbing, that's it, yep. So, he does, he helps, and then he eats a nice dinner full of peas. Yeah, who doesn't love peas? I can go for some peas? Yeah, I can go for some peas. Yeah, what I really like is a samosa with and butter? I'll fucking eat that all day. I'd fucking eat that, a little parmesan.
Starting point is 00:11:06 Wow, fucking eat that all day. All day. Breakfast, lunch, dinner. Numb, numb, numb. Farfale is a shitty pasta to cook, though, because it takes a long time. And sometimes by the time e that's like the little pearls of mozzarella or the cherry tomato basil and Farfali olive oil garlic see if
Starting point is 00:11:30 I'm making that I'm gonna go with a Cavatapi oh I see I see I see I see Folly are bow ties for all you non-sophistic it's up there Oh, pasta hour we should do a whole podcast about different types of pasta. Would love it. It's spicy meat the ball. So Justiceville is this homeless encampment. And I was like, oh, this is very 2022 relevant because the homeless population or the unhoused population in Los Angeles is like completely out of control because the housing market there is completely fucked. I mean, it's out of control. I mean, it's out of control. I, I, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, the, the, the, the, the, the, the the, the, the, the, the, the the, the, the the the, the, th, th, th, and th. th. the th. th. thi, and th. th. th. It, and th. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's thi. It's th. It's th. It's thi. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's thi. It's th. It's the th. It's the unhoused population in Los Angeles is like completely out of control because the housing market there is completely fuck. I mean it's out of control in many places in this country right now.
Starting point is 00:12:11 Yeah. And Pittsburgh not withstanding. Yeah. It's been very very heartbreaking to see what's happening along our riverfronts and just... I will not go to the new whole foods because of what they did to get that new Whole Foods building. Yeah. Knock down a bunch of people's homes. A lot of people's homes, low-income housing. Yeah. Fucking Bill Padoo. A piece of shit. Yeah. Oh.
Starting point is 00:12:32 But, uh, so like, I feel like, and I feel like throughout this movie, there's a lot of themes that are very relevant to with that. So he, of course he's jamming on his harmonica. I wrote here, I don't like a harmonica. And this is after Piper has said, I believe in America, I follow the rules, and I thought, God, that's sad. Yeah, yeah, yeah, but it really is, because it comes back to bite him in the ass. Yeah, it does.
Starting point is 00:13:03 And also we've learned from Keith David, who is Frank, that he has not seen his kids in six months because he's been looking for work all over the country. Right, he's from Detroit and he said something about Steel Mills Closing. And I was like, oh, fuck, we just did the other end of this movie. He was there at the beginning of Barbary. Yeah. What if he'd been the neighbor, Doug, Doug, Doug, Doug, Doug, Doug, Doug, Doug, Doug, Doug, Doug, to, to, to, to, to th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, he's, th. Yeah, he's, he's, th. Yeah, he's, th. Yeah, he, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. He's th. of Barbary. Yeah. What if he'd been the neighbor, Doug? Oh, so two francs, he would fuck that other franc up. He wouldn't know that he was a scumback. Yeah, I'm taking Keith David in that fight. Yeah, he will fight him for upwards of seven minutes. I can't wait to talk about that.
Starting point is 00:13:37 Also, remember how kind? Kee's kind? picture? Yes. So fucking kind. Why are people... It was a Zachary? Yeah, I think it was Zachary. So, and also Keith David, just like, I haven't seen my kids in six months. Here's a Marxian dissertation about why capitalism is bad. Yes, he does the whole like the golden rule, he who has the gold makes the rules and... And I love it because John Carpenter is such an anti-authoritarian human being. Certainly. And like, the fact that he's just like, yeah, I'm going to put all this stuff in what is ostensibly a dumb sci-fi action movie.
Starting point is 00:14:15 Yeah, I mean, it's certainly a scathing indictment of capitalism. For sure. And Reaganism and all of that stuff. Yeah, this is absolutely absolutely the end the end the end the end the end tha that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that's absolutely absolutely absolutely absolutely absolutely absolutely absolutely absolutely absolutely absolutely absolutely absolutely that that that that that that that that that that's that's that's that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's the-a the, thi-a. the the thi thi thi thia.a.a.a. that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that stuff. Oh yeah, this is absolutely like the end result of the Reagan years. Yeah. I think now is it I think Dick Miller might still be the king of being in movies that we've done. It could be. Could be. But I think Buckflower or Peter Jason may be giving him a run for his money. We should really do a run down. Yeah. Because Buckflower was like in Puppet Master and even non-jarn carpenter. Yeah. Wasn't he in sleaze ball, sorority girl, Bolorama? I think he's in that too. I don't recall. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:53 I blocked a lot of that one except for the shower scene, which I think about because like, are you kidding me? He just sprayed it right on their chest and somehow all that whipped their chest and somehow all that whipped cream is in their butt cracks. All up in their cracks. And it takes them so long to watch it out of their butt cracks. I mean a full scene, a long scene. They're making a sequel to that movie. Are they? I'll see that. I will watch that and I will cover it on this show. In 2022. I'm very excited for that. I'm very excited.

There's an ad for press-on nails where it's like, how do you do things with press-on-nails and they show like a lady typing and also using our nails as a fork to pick up what appeared to be a cube of cheese? That's fucking nasty. She is the hero that we all deserve. Fair. Fair enough.
Starting point is 00:15:42 Fair enough. So yeah, uh, so they're watching the TV and we see the press-on-nail cheese cube lady who is definitely my hero. Just looking for another way to get cheese into your face. Yeah, I was like, I don't think I need press-on-nails, too. I need press-on nails for the cheese in my life. I just always imagine trying to put in my contacts with press that press on nails like that Especially if they've got cheese all over them
Starting point is 00:16:08 You're gonna go blind You need a good heart cheese that's not gonna leave a lot of rest do on your that's true That's true. You don't a cracker, cut it an apple up. Ooh, an apple. Interesting. Interesting. Apple and cheese? I mean, yeah. I mean, yeah. Anyway, there's a hacker on the TV. This guy, the pirate TV people keep coming through and being like saying what the preacher is saying earlier to the point of where the preacher standing on the street reciting what the guy's saying. Right his mouth is just moving but it's still the other guy's voice coming out. Which gives like this element of spookery to it all. Definitely.
Starting point is 00:16:56 It's basically about how we don't care about other people because capitalism because capitalism, because capitalism, because yeah, which is obviously still true. And I feel like the the the th, it it the the the the the the the th. the the th. the th. th. the the the th. the the th. the th. the th. the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the the the the th. th. th. th. the th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the. the. threateateateateateateateateateateateate people people people people people people people people people is threat.eateate people people people is theat. people people is theate. the is the is th true. And I feel like you could remake this movie now and just be like capitalism and social media. Yeah, it's one of the lines is we have been lulled into a trance. Which is true about both things. Stay asleep. Yeah. They are safe as long as they are not discovered. Yeah. We see Gilbert, who is Peter Jason's character and he runs back to the church with the blind preacher. It looks like they're arguing. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. they're?????? they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're? they're? they're they're they're they're they're? their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. Yeah. Yeah. their. Yeah. Yeah. their. their. their. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. their. their. their. their. Yeah. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their their their their their their their their their their their. their. their. their. their. their. their. I. their. their. I. runs back to the church with the blind preacher. It looks like they're arguing. Yeah. What are they arguing about? It's sunglasses.
Starting point is 00:17:29 And Roddy Piper is like, I gotta investigate. You know I love to investigate. I'm gonna need some binoculars. It's a very important note that Piper never sleeps and he never goes back to work. You're not going to be that ripped sleeping. No, it's sure. You've got a 24-hour day. I do love that at the end of his first day on the construction site, he's like, hey, when do I get paid? And the guy's like Thursday.
Starting point is 00:17:54 So I'm like, okay, well this must be Monday, let's say Tuesday. It could be any day prior to Thursday. Not Wednesday, though, because he would otherwise say tomorrow. And the next day he and Keith David do not go to work. No, he never goes back. Well, life gets in the way. Life does get in the way. So the his, um, what's his name, Gilbert? Yeah. Gilbert's explanation for this one,
Starting point is 00:18:18 Piper confronts him about it, is the church lets us use their kitchen. Piper says until four in the morning. And he's like, hey, we're taking care of a lot of people here. Shut the fuck up, dude. Munde your own business. Yeah. To which my next note says, a lot of this movie has just been Piper walking around looking at things. Yeah. That's a lot of tired when I watched it. Was this another 545 a. No, I watched it at night. Okay, okay. I get tired then too. So he eventually
Starting point is 00:18:53 sneaks into the church after he's surveilled it for a while. Yeah. And he finds that they have a lab where they're making sunglasses. They are and that's a lot of sunglasses. A lot of sunglasses. What are they going to do with these sunglasses? Like what is their plan? Their plan is to get the sunglasses to a human being so that they can see that aliens are controlling them. Okay. And at this point in the movie I started thinking a really sad thought. How great would it be if it wasn't just that we were fucking shitty? If they the the the they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they thi thi. they're thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. they're the. thi. they're thi. they're thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. they are they are they are they are they are they are they are they are they are they are they are they are th. th. th. they are thi. thi. thi. they're thi. thi. thi. thi. theeeeeeeeeeeeateeeateeeeeeeeateeat. theeeeeateat. theee. they're they're they're that we were fucking shitty. It's like this alien species was actually controlling us making us do all this shitty stuff. Yeah. You mean like the inherent goodness of man?
Starting point is 00:19:32 Sure. Oh boy. Yeah, that's a tough one. What if we were just kind to each other as a default setting? Blah. I also like that they're called the Hoffman glasses when he overhears them talking about. He's like, we gotta make more Hoffman glasses. Hoffman glasses, okay.
Starting point is 00:19:50 Painted on the wall is they live, we sleep. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. They're really not even trying to hide it, though. It's right there in the entrance way. Yeah, for sure. And the blind preacher grabs him. And when he does that, a helicopter appears outside and they're both like, what? Huh?
Starting point is 00:20:10 Helicopter? Roddy Piper has hands like catchersmits. He does. Huge hands. I don't, he wasn't like a tall dude either. No, I think he's smaller than Keith David. Yeah. I think he's probably like six, six one. Yeah, but he's just like... He's just fucking stacked.
Starting point is 00:20:26 Massive, yeah. Like he's got those boxer, boy tie muscles on the traps. He's like traps. Yeah. They're just like, you don't get them from just regular stuff. Like you gotta work to get those. You've been shrugging. So, but the helicopter like freaks everybody out in the church. He also
Starting point is 00:20:48 sees the choir practice is not a choir, it's just a tape recording of a choir. Right, right, which is a nice cover I guess that they're doing. But also you would think people might come in off the street to hear the choir, so maybe not that good. So and we see Gilbert Peek out of the door with the sunglasses on to look at the helicopter. Right. Bump-bom-bom. We hear about an end of the world cult in San Anselmo? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:13 Yeah. And someone says this kind of shit happens at the end of every century. Mm-hmm. Okay. I thought just wait for Y2K, I guess. And there were people who went out to the desert and yeah, all the end of the world was coming. I mean it would have, if not for those brave computer engineers. Sure, yeah. I think that's true though.
Starting point is 00:21:32 Fixing all those years. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. They did it. They did it. They did it. So he tells Keith David about what's going on, tells Frank, and Frank's like, just leave it the fuck alone, man.
Starting point is 00:21:45 We got a good thing going here. Just trying to work, just trying to live. He is flexible for a big man. This might be the point where he's like standing with his like foot up on a bench or a car hood or something. With his knee at his shoulder. He's so stretchy. He's the th is he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's th. He's th. He's th. He's th. He's th. He's th. He's th. He's th. He's th. He's th. He's th. He's th. He's th. He's th. He's th. He's the. He's thi. He's hea-hea-heat heat. He's heat. He's he. He's he. He's he. He's he. He's he. He's he. He's he. He's he. He's he. He's he. He's he. He's he. He's he. He's he. He's he. He's he. He's th. He's th. He's trying. He's trying. He's trying. He's a big man. Keith David is sassy. That's really what kept me going in this movie. Keith David. Keith David and my love for Piper.
Starting point is 00:22:11 Yeah, sure, sure. So he's just still watching this church. He's fascinated with it. I mean, why? I don't know. He gets fixated. He's a very smart man. Or a border collie. He needs to herd these people in one way or another.
Starting point is 00:22:29 So a helicopter comes back at night. Yeah. And everyone starts freaking out and they make a run for it. And then the cops show up. A to to to'c. A to ton a to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the cop cop cop cop cop cop cop cop cop cop cop cop cop cop cop cop cop cop cop car the the the the the the the the too too too to to to to to to to the the the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their their their their the the the the the the the the the to. the to. to. to. to. to. to. to.? Oh sure. Cops love science. Oh yeah, okay. Like Dexter. And they have like a thing that's like a tank
Starting point is 00:22:51 but an excavator too. Oh, the bulldozer that comes into like, and then I was like, this is also a moment where I paused for sadness. they they really do this to homeless camps. This is a thin. It's, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, th. th. th. thi, th. th. th. th. th. thi. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. they they thi This is a thing that they do. They wreck everything. The little few things that these people have in their lives. They bulldoze. This is terrible. It really is. Fucking LAPD.
Starting point is 00:23:10 Sure. Fucking everywhere. I know. But it's especially the LAPD in though. for cops there specifically. It just, like, get your fucking hands off Buck Flowers. Yeah. And the poor blind preacher. And Gilbert, they just beat the shit out of them. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:34 And at this point, I like this because this is just, we've got a piper-eye view of him just walking through all these scenes of like police violence and stuff. And I was like, man, you have tools, why aren't you going to get those? Those are expensive. Right. Right, and he is not. He does not. He instead like rescues what I think is meant to be a kid but looks to be a full-grown man who is hiding. Oh, this 28-year-old child. I mean, he's cowering, so he must be a child. I mean, he's cowering. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he is he is he is he is he is he is he is he.

He is he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he is he is he is he is he is he is he is he is he is he is he is he is he is he is he is house and then he gives the kid to another family. Well, no, it's people from the camp. They were the people watching TV, but he literally gives him, he like pushes him into them. Like he belongs to you. Yes, and there's like a, I think there's like a, is this where there's a fashion show happening on TV?
Starting point is 00:24:20 And it seems to just be like big buttons sewn to Vnecks, V shoulder pads like, yes, high fashion. You're gonna find it hard to believe that I don't think that John Carpenter probably thinks highly of the fashion industry. You know that's probably true. And the cops are also beating the broadcast guy who's been breaking through in the part the pirate TV station. Right. Which has been happening from inside the church. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the beating the broadcast guy who's been breaking through in the part the pirate TV station. Right. Which has been happening from inside the church? Yes.
Starting point is 00:24:49 But the people at the camp don't know about it because they're annoyed that it keeps happening. Exactly. Yeah. They've been keeping on the deal into the eagles. Routy, roa piper shows up. He then eventually breaks into the area behind the wooden wall in the church and straight up steals a box. Yeah, need some sunglasses.
Starting point is 00:25:07 Full of shades. Needs to see what's going on, Katie. Here's where I wrote, real slow burn here. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. But once it kicks into gear, it takes off. No, I don't think so, but okay. It does not, sir. We can both agree that that's not's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's not sure's that's that's that's not sure. that's not sure. that's not sure. that's not sure. that's not th. th. thiaue. thoe. thoomeaueueueueauea. theyoen. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. th. th. th. the. the. the. the. the. thea. thea. toea. toea. toea. toea. tea. toea. te. te. te. does not, sir. We can both agree that that's not true. So he's walking around with the sunglasses on, or he puts them on, and he's looking at the
Starting point is 00:25:31 ground and then he whips them off and he looks at the ground again, but in those two shots, was there anything different on the ground? The ground was black and white. Oh, yeah, I should have caught that. Yeah. I was like, well, the sunglasses, that's what they do. So then he starts like looking around at signage. What does he see? He sees a billboard that says Obey. And is that where Shepard Ferry took it from? 2,000 percent.
Starting point is 00:25:57 Yeah. Does he at least credit it? Oh, really? Yeah, he got in a lot of trouble for that Obama Hope poster. The Hope poster, that's right! I forgot about that. He did that without crediting the photographer. So that guy still have a job? I bet he does. The job, of course he does. There's an ad for the Caribbean. It just says, visit the Caribbean. But when he looks at it, uh, with his sunglasses on it says marry and reproduce. I like like the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th th th th th th th th th th th thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus th. I thus thus thus thus thus thus the. So thus thus thus thus. thus thus. So that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's th. So th. So th. So th. So th. So th. So th. So th. So th. th. th. So th. th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah like the idea of just an ad for a region.
Starting point is 00:26:25 Well, there was a big ad campaign at the time for Jamaica. Come back to Jamaica, what's old is what's new. I don't remember this at all I guess what's the time. Yeah, come back to Jamaica, we're waiting for you. Oh. Yeah. Okay. The Jamaica jingle. It sticks in my head. I mean, it sounds catchy. It sounds that say no independent thiiiiiiii tha. tha.. T T T T T T T T T T T T T T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. catchy. Yeah. Yeah, and the signs that say no independent thought, consume, conform, watch TV. Stay asleep, to which I wrote gladly. I was like, like, Mary and reproduce and sleep are like, okay.
Starting point is 00:26:59 Fine. These are all pleasant events in your life, yeah. Generally speaking. Yeah, watch TV, I guess. Yeah, cool. in your life, yeah. Generally speaking. Watch TV, I guess. Yeah, cool. I love TV. Do not question authority. The magazines are all filled with things to do, like commands I guess. And this is where Piper sees his first alien.
Starting point is 00:27:22 What are you looking at, buddy? What's your problem, buddy? He is a skull or an alien or just very toothy? I couldn't figure out what he was at first. All those things. Yeah, all those things are true. He's got like the bottoms of coke bottles for eyes. Yes, he does.
Starting point is 00:27:37 And theuke, their splotchy skin is a bit odd, isn't it? Yeah, it's real weird. It's a weird choice. Yeah. But yeah, and that guy like sees Piper, Piper keeps doing like the looking at him, put the glasses down, but the glasses down, so the guy's onto him. Right. And also at this point, his mullet is blowing so beautifully. It's gorgeous. It's luxurious. So he's looking he he he he he's looking he he's looking the the the the the the the the the th th is thiiiiiii's looking thui's looking thuiaq thuiaq thuaskiaq thuasks. thuasks. thuasks. thuasks. thusususususususus. thoeses thoes thoes thoes thoes thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. thuicic. th. th. th. th. thuicicicicicicicicicicicicicicicicic. thuic. thuic. thiaa. thia. thi. thi. thi. thi. thee. thee. the. the. the. theea the. It's thea. thi. thi. It's thia. It's thi. It's gorgeous. It's luscious. It's luxurious. So he's looking around seeing that some people like the man who runs the newsstand is normal. Yeah. But there are other people who are skull aliens. Yeah. Yeah, at this point I had the thought, at no point does he question
Starting point is 00:28:16 whether or not the sunglasses are accurate. Yeah, he just assumes that it's real. Whatever he's seeing is real, which is kind of insane. So, I think I mentioned briefly like conspiracy theories or something in the last episode, so here's, I'm gonna blow it. I'm gonna, I'm gonna say it now. All right. I think, so there's a lot of like co-opting of this movie on the right. Oh. And I'm like, no, you can't have this. This is our left-wing propaganda film. Yeah, I'm sure that was its intent.
Starting point is 00:28:46 It's anti-capitalism. How can it be a right-wing thing? That's their thing. They love capitalism. So here's my thing. I think that the message of it is left-wing. Sure. Sure. to everything that he sees is extremely right-wing. How do you mean? He sees these aliens and his initial reaction is,
Starting point is 00:29:07 I can start killing them. I need to start murdering now. Yeah, they haven't done anything to him, have they? He's not seen them conduct any kind of violence or anything. Right, and then when he goes into the grocery source, some of them are like elderly women. Yeah. Hot damn, Alan, I th th th th th th th th, th, th, th, th, and th, th, th, th, th, th, and th, th, th, th, th, th, and th, th, th, th, and th, th, the their their thi, and their thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I th. I th. I th, I th. I th. I th, I th. I th, I th, I th, I th. I th, I th, I th, I th, I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. thi, I thi, I thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. I can thi. I can thi. I can thi thi th as elderly women anymore he sees them as others yeah hot damn Alan I think you're on to something there so I was like oh this is total Q&on bullshit this is fucking pizza game isn't it I feel like John Carpenter would be so distressed to think that yeah and he has come out and like you don't get to get this like this like this is it for you I th I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they th they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to th the they they they they they they they they they they just like open about wanting to kill others.
Starting point is 00:29:45 You know, like we can be open about being anti-capitalism. They don't get to be open about wanting to murder people who don't look like them. I mean, these are the kill your local pedophile t-shirt guys and all that stuff. They're all pedophiles though, right? Exactly. If you're wearing onto this movie. More so than the red pill in the Matrix. I mean I get why they latched onto that but like it doesn't make sense.
Starting point is 00:30:16 Yeah, yeah, yeah. So. Yeah, so he goes into the grocery store, seasonal lady and immediately is like... You look like your head fell in the cheese dip back in 1957, that's what he says. You, you're okay, you, or this one? Real fucking ugly. Real fucking ugly. This is where I'm excited to see him because he gets worked up, he gets into his Piper pit thing where he's just yelling around, and then he takes a bump, which is what I'm here to see. I mean when he falls backwards over the flowers? He does so well. Also how nice is it to see a movie with fantastic fight choreography because this guy knows what he's doing?
Starting point is 00:30:55 It's so good. Yeah. Yeah. Wait, do you mean to say that he's done choreography in fights before? What? Entertainment? Sports entertainment. Yeah, it's like fighting. Yeah, sports entertainment. I don't know what you're, I don't know what you're implying to me. Pough. It's, it's not that it's not real. Of course it's real. I see it. I'm watching it. How could it not be real? Are you saying I can't trust my eyes, Alan? But if you've ever watched the cactus jack terry funk match in Japan where
Starting point is 00:31:25 the mic so close to the ring that you can hear them going suplex yeah that'll do. I don't know what you're talking about. I mean at the end of the match the both of them are bleeding more blood than I have in my body. They did what they came to do. For like 11 people there's nobody in the room. Oh, it's so good. Anyway, Google, Terry Funk, Cactus Jack matches. They're fantastic. I wish we would do another Terry Funk movie. We haven't done one in a while. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:52 Are there any Mick Foley movies we can do? Did he react? I'm certain. I'll Google while you talk. that he calls real fucking ugly, gets on her swat-watch and is like, hey, we've got one. He can see. And then we see that there's other aliens in the store that are also moving towards him. What do we got? I found.
Starting point is 00:32:17 I'm sure he's done a Christmas movie. Well, I don't know, but what I'm looking at right now is something I'm very excited about, which is a movie called 12-hour shift. It's a horror thriller, an hour and 26 minutes long. Can I read you the synopsis? Please. Body start to pile up when a drug-addicted nurse and her crazed cousin try to find a replacement kidney for an organ trafficker. And can I tell you who's third build in it? Terry Funk. David Arquette. Oh! Yeah. Another wrestler. Yeah. We should definitely do this movie.
Starting point is 00:32:48 No one will listen to that episode and I don't care. People have suggested that movie to us. Really? Yeah. He's fifth build, so he must be up there. their. Who's that? Oh, okay. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. Oh, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. to. th. th. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. We. We.

He has done a Christmas movie too. It's called I am Santa Claus. Yeah, he loves Santa Claus. It might be a documentary about him loving Santa Claus.
Starting point is 00:33:08 Oh, really? Yeah, he plays Santa Claus now. Oh, it is a documentary, you're right? My cousin Joe once ran into him at the Eaton Park on McKnight Road. Joe said, McFully has the is all not true. Seems like a genuinely nice human being. Yeah, I think so. Yeah. I've listened to his audio book about how much he loves Santa Claus. That's wild.
Starting point is 00:33:36 Yeah. I sort of mistrust that a little bit. No, he just really loves Christmas. Like he really is super into it. And it like, it makes him stoked. I know, all right, it's fine. No, I'm being, I'm being cynical. There, there's this really sweet part of the book that's also very sad,
Starting point is 00:33:50 but like because of all the bumps that he's taken and all the concussions that he's had to the- He has to things. You've got to be on your parking. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But it was like it was this really sweet moment of like my heart was broken and I couldn't do this thing. Oh, jeez.
Starting point is 00:34:15 Yeah.

You're, to, to, to, you've, you've, you've, you've, you've, you, you, mankind scared the shit out of me when I was a kid. Yeah, he's great. So he he starts some shit in the store then leaves and... Yes, Swashwatch, that's where you were. Yes, Watch, he's, he gets called in from the lady on his Watch Watch and then we see other aliens talking into their watches. She says, I got one that can see one that can see. Yeah. So he leaves thoes gets tackled by some cops on the street. Yes. And the cops were like, hey man, if you're cool, we're cool. We can make this like work for both of us. Yeah. But he doesn't do that. He clotheslines them. He cluze them. Punches the other one, then shoots one and then shoots the other. This is what I'm saying. He is ready to murder these people. Yeah, it kind of makes you wonder what he did in his previous life. Sure.
Starting point is 00:35:11 Yeah. He takes all their guns. He takes their shotgun and just like, doot, dude, walking down the street. It's insane. I would shit myself if I saw this man wearing these huge sunglasses, carrying all those guns walking down the street. I'm so glad we don't live in an open carry state. He heads into a bank and then is like, whoops, it's a bank. Yeah, what were you thinking? But then he sees all the aliens in there and says, I have come here to chew bubble gum and
Starting point is 00:35:39 kick ass and I'm all out of bubble gum. Came where? To the bank? Yep. All right. He never had any bubble gum. Was he hoping the bank would have some? I'm sorry, I'm hung up on this. It's just one of those traditional badass guy lines
Starting point is 00:35:54 that you've heard a thousand times before. Oh, I gotcha. And this is where we learn that they can disappear they can can they can they can they can they can they can they can they can that they can they can they can that they can disappear they can disappear they can disappear that they can disappear they can disappear they can disappear that that they can disappear that that that that that that that that that that that that that they can disappear that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that they can they can they can they can they can they can they can they can they can they can they can disappear they can disappear they can disappear they can disappear they can disappear they can disappear they can disappear they can disappear they can disappear they can disappear they can disappear they can disappear they can disappear they can disappear they can disappear they can disappear they can disappear they can disappear they can disappear they can. Because he's about to shoot a guy who's reporting him and he says to the guy, Mama don't like no tattletales. This is what I'm talking about with his one-liners. You're right, that's fine. Got it.
Starting point is 00:36:18 The guy disappears, he goes outside. Her drones. I was like... I was like a flying drone that no one can see normally. Very prescient. Uh-huh. And then he sees an actual good cop, which is very what the fuck. He's just like, get out of here and I won't hurt you. When it's just like beat cheeks or something too. I think, yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:34 Then, like, here's our hero, carjacking a woman in a parking garage, which has to be the most terrifying terifying. entire life. This movie from everyone else's perspective is just this insane man doing crazy shit. Totally like they're in her car, he's making her drive, he starts questioning her on her marriage situation and demands to go to her place and her eyes fill with tears and your heart goes out to her. He is not my hero in this moment. When she's dealing with him back at her house and he's like saying these things to her and she's just like yeah that's not real what you're saying like you're not being you you are the one in power in this situation I don't have any power he says I'm sorry and she says
Starting point is 00:37:15 you have two guns you're not sorry yeah yeah and I was like oh fuck she's had to deal with dudes being shitheads before they're her whole life yeah yeah good thing she has that cute couple next door to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to they. they. they. I I I I I I I they. I they. I they. I the th. I th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm they. Yeah. th. their. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I'm th. I they. I. I. I. I. I. I. I I I I. I I. I I I I. I.

I'm the. the. the. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th she has that cute couple next door to look out for her. But I have a question. Do you both get to be unbuttoned Hawaiian shirt guy? Or can only one of you be? Fuck yeah. It's like, did you see the Miss Puerto Rico and Miss Argentina got married? Yeah, it's like, I don't think the two people that beautiful should be allowed to be......... they they they to be, their, their, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, thu, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, they. their, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or they, or they, or they, or they, or the only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only only, or they.... they, or they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. th. they. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thoooooooo. the the rest of us or something? I guess my question stands for unbutton Hawaiian shirt guys. Like, does one of them put it on and the other one's like, I was gonna wear mine today?
Starting point is 00:37:51 No, they both go, yeah, you look fucking dope as hell, dude. Man, Rob and I fight over who gets to our flannel. It's always him. Why, you look so good and fuck? I know! Man. Uh, But when you're both wearing flannel, people are like, oh, flannel guys. I hope Missy and I are often both wearing all black and I'm like, well, yes, it's your look. Do people, are people just like, oh, look, chubby ninjas? These people have just come from a funeral.
Starting point is 00:38:21 A very casual funeral. Cash fune. My funeral will be casual because I don't want, like I'm going to have a hot dog and nacho cart so I don't want people to get like condiments all over their nice stuff. I do. I want them to get their nice stuff messy at your funeral. You're in charge so you can run it as you see fit. I like being like the best man to your funeral. I mean Rob will probably be sad so he's not going to want to deal with it. I mean I would swoop in.
Starting point is 00:38:52 Yeah no I'll be fucking whatever Wednesday to me. If something happens to you on a Wednesday I'm going to fucking jump off. What day would be better for you. Pull up your calendar. I mean I'm pretty booked for the next 200 years. So if you could put it off? You get paid on Thursday. So she pours herself a glass of room temp white wine, which I thought was an odd choice. Yeah. Yeah. But it's just to get the bottle that she's going to crack him on the skull and send him out a window. She shoves him out a window. And I just th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. to. to to to to to to to to to to to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. the the the the the the the the the. te. te. te. te. the te. te. the te. to. to. to. to. to. to. I just thought he could have handled this whole thing a lot better. He knows he's got a tuck and roll on that kind of jump. Not that, but the whole situation of like explaining to this woman why he's kidnapped her.
Starting point is 00:39:34 He doesn't do a great job explaining it, and he immediately gets, like, combative with her. Katie, he's got a bit of a headache from thia. from wearing those glasses all day. Oh that's true, it does give you headaches we have learned. So he like rolls under an underpass, I don't know, he's fine. Yeah, he's got some cuts on his faces that go away almost immediately. Well, he's about to get some more cuts on his faces because what happens next? He goes back to the job site and he's hiding and waiting for Frank to get a drinky of water. And Frank comes over, and he's like, Frank, Frank, I gotta tell you something. And Frank says, fuck you, get the fuck away from me. How many people have you killed, you fucking asshole?
Starting point is 00:40:14 Yeah. Frank is mad and I don't blame him. Yeah. And he says not people, them or something like that. Which is what a crazy person would say. Exactly. He's trying to force Keith David to put the glasses on. When he goes back to his glasses, Heidi Hole, and there's this whole prolonged scene of him going into the trash, the back of the garbage truck that's filled with nothing but cardboard and plastic so that he didn't have to get sloppy. It's a recycling truck, but okay. To get his, it was in 1988, we can recycle.
Starting point is 00:40:48 It goes in the back of it, to get his glasses back and like manage the tip the whole thing out on the street. It's so fucking funny. And I'm like, why is this here? Why is this taking so long is a lot of notes that I have about this very not long film? It's like 97 minutes It takes forever And six of those minutes are one of the greatest scenes I've ever seen in my life
Starting point is 00:41:13 Which is this immediate street fight between Keith David and rowdy-rottie piper? So Frank shows up and he's like I got you a day's pay? It's the best I could do? Yeah, and throws like a watt of cash in they-I I I I I I I I I I their th. I th. I th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi thi-I thi-I thi-I thi-I thi-up. thi-like. thi-like. thi-like thi-s. thi-in' tak tak's t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t tak tak tak tak tak tak tak tak tak tak takes takes takes takes takes takes takes takes takes takes takes takes takes takes takes takes takes takes takes takes takes. And throws like a wad of cash. I want to work there, even if it means shirtless digging in the dirt for no reason. You got them traps. Yeah. I can't wait. He's, he's like, you gotta put these glasses on. And he's like, I don't you just do it to get him to leave you alone? I mean, from Frank's perspective, this man has murdered many people since the last time you saw him. So then, don't go get him a day's pay and bring it to him.
Starting point is 00:41:52 Well, at least he's a bud. The brows. Yeah, but if you're a bud, if you're a bud, if thi, if you're a th, if you're a, if you're a, if I, if I, if I, if th, if th, if th, if th, if th, if th, if th, if th, if th, if th, if th, if th, if th, if, if th, if, if, if, if, if th, th, to th, th, if to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. don't.

I suppose so. And it's to support my murder friends. That's wonderful. I am fine with that but I cannot promise you the same. Oh, no, no, no, I'm too lazy.

Oh no no no I'm too lazy. It's a lot of work to kill people. A ton of fucking work. Anyway this street fight. At one point I don't know if it still is it was like the longest fight in film history. Oh that's amazing. Yeah. I'm sure it isn't anymore but oh it's so fun. Yeah. And a lot of it is just big haymakers you know. Yeah yeah yeah. Like there's a there's a there's a there's a there's a there's a there's a there's a there's a there's a there's a the the there's a the the there's a the the the the the the there's a the the the su. I I I's a their. I'm their. I'm their. I'm th. I'm their their their their their their their their their their. I'm their. I'm their. I'm their. I's their. I their. I their. I their. I. I. I. I. I.

I mean, and a lot of it is just big haymakers, you know. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like there's a suplex, there's a little bit of a backbreaker, but most of it is just punching the shit out of each other, but you're not bored. When he goes to, he almost kicks Keith David in the nuts, and Keith David's like,
Starting point is 00:43:00 you're fucking cheat. Yeah, there's a gentlemanliness to this about. And then he picks up a board and smashes out the back windshield of a car and realizes what he would have done if he had hit Keith David with the board. He's like, I'm so sorry. Yeah. And Keith David breaks a bottle and the bottle like is, uh, what is that? is a sugar glass. Yeah, yeah. So it just disintegrates in his hand. He's like, God damn it! And then proceeds to do a hundred nuts, knees to nuts dive bombs on him. He does.
Starting point is 00:43:32 They beat the shit out of each other. So good. But how does it all end up, Alan? With him, uh, putting the glasses on Keith David? Keith David's like, holy shit. It's like, don't you guys feel like dummies now, I'll bust it up about nothing. But I do love a worked up Piper. Piper, screaming, yelling, getting angry is like him at his finest.
Starting point is 00:43:58 Katie, I'm amazed that you didn't think this man was filled with one-liners after he said, life's a bitch bitch and she's back in heat. Yeah, I don't love that one. What? Okay. What does it mean? Your life's a bitch and she wants to fuck? Yeah, she's fucking you because she's life. I see. Well, I get it now. So they go get a room. They're just gonna chlax after they go get a room, they're just gonna tolax after they're fighting.
Starting point is 00:44:25 Yeah, they've got the sunglasses on, which is good because their faces are all busted up for now, and so that they can see if there are any aliens in this hotel. Where are the aliens from, Keith David asks? Roddy Ryder Piper's reply? Well, they ain't from Cleveland. I mean, that much is true. And then he just starts telling the story of child abuse and I just am not ready for this? Why is that in here? Let's give some depth of this character.
Starting point is 00:44:55 All right. I just, my old man took me out and beat the shit out of me? Yeah. Wow. Yeah. So I left when I was 13 and I'm running ever since. Did you get married though? Maybe. To the rails. To the rails.
Starting point is 00:45:15 The rails are also wearing a gold ring. And Keith David was like, yeah. Keev was like, I'm actually a family man. I wonder if he's ever narrated an audio book, because I would really like that. Ooh, does some smooth, dulcet tones. I don't know if you could handle it. You're probably right, I'd never sleep again. He didn't read in like the twilight novels or something? Yeah, yay.
Starting point is 00:45:38 Very sexy. Sessy. So Gilbert is watching them. Yes, he has spotted them wearing the sunglasses. He invites them to a meeting. Yes. The world needs a wake-up call and we're going to phone it in. So they're at this meeting and they're so convinced there's some kind of signal, but I don't exactly understand what they're talking about with this signal. Like I don't understand what happens at the news station. Oh, it sends out the signal that makes everybody want to sleep and conform and obey. I thought that was the subliminal messaging in the signs.
Starting point is 00:46:11 Yeah, but that's the signal is what covers it all up. A little, little loosey on the science facts in this one. This is what, this is when you get down to, my my problem with the movie is that John Carpenter is clearly trying to make some sort of statement about, a big statement about the state of the country, about capitalism, about the way people are treated, about the way that we treat others in the quest for wealth, but it's all really muddy, you know? Sure, and it's all wrapped up in a man's love of 50 sci-fi. Sure. And even like when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, the the the the the the the the the the the, the, the the the the, the, the, the, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, the the the the the the the the the they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, th. they, they. th. their their their their their their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, th. This is thi. thi. thi wrapped up in a man's love of 50 sci-fi. Sure, and even like when you see that flying saucer, you're like, this is straight out of a drive-in movie. Yeah, yeah, and that's like,
Starting point is 00:46:52 that's the shit that he grew up on and loves. I just feel like he could have clarified for me a bit more. Sure. Yeah, thi. Yeah, but I th. th. th. th. thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thin. thin. thin. thin' thin' thin' thi thi thi. thin' thin' thin' thin' th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. theeea. thea. thea'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a' thi. time. But it's not that fun. There's a lot of draggy parts. Yeah, I don't know. All right, go ahead, go ahead. I do like the thing of like, oh, climate change is them terror-forming the planet. Which I think is a really fun, like, there's all these fun things that are likethe ills of society, but they're actually aliens doing these things to fuck us over. Yeah. Like they're exacerbating greed because it works in their favor to do so. What's their end game then? To have us do all the work for them so that they can live their posh lives. Because if you
Starting point is 00:47:38 notice like other than cops, all the aliens are like upper crusty people. Elon Musk is definitely. Oh 100%. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. That's why he shot that car into space. He's just going home. What? Like, if you, all these, you fucking people love your Marvel movies, right? Isn't there always like a billionaire villain in them? What? Like, if you, all these, you fucking people love your Marvel movies, right?
Starting point is 00:48:05 Isn't there always like a billionaire villain in them? Sure, but there's also a billionaire superhero, oh, goddame it. There's also Iron Man, which is what Elon Musk thinks he is. I don't know what Iron Man does. Iron Man is a billionaire who makes toys to solve the ills of the world. How, never mind. Just thiiiiiiii, they. they. they, they, they, they, they, they, they is, they is, they is, they is, they is, they is, they is, they is, they is, they is, they, their, there, their, there's there's there's there's there's there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there's is there, there's is there's is there, there's is there, there, there's is there, there, there, there, there's is there, their is they is their is thi. tho, tho, tho, tho, thoo, tho-s tho-s, tho-s, tho-s, tho-s, tho-s, thi, thi. thi of the world. How? Never mind. Just don't even tell me anything about this. I thought I had a theory. It's already gone. Just let it go.
Starting point is 00:48:27 I heard a quote from Elon Musk today where they were talking about a Tesla plant in the, in some forest in Germany that has been in a drought for like 10 years. And testeslapes apparently use a tonsonononononon and they want to make it three times bigger. It's already the size of 150 soccer fields. What? And they were like, yeah, we're already in a drought. We can't have this factory making, like using all this water. And he was like, we will make water.
Starting point is 00:48:57 His response was, look at all this water. this isn't a desert. What are they?. tha tha tha? tha? tha? tha, tha, tha, thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. ti. ti. ti. ti. te. te. te. tea. tea. toea. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea.a. tea.a. te. te.es. This isn't a desert. What are they talking about? Sir? You're a super villain. Yeah. You're a bad dude. Either a super villain or you're incredibly stupid. I think those things could be mutually together. Yeah. Ben diagram of a circle. I mean not to get too deep at this, but super villains are always like these hyper smart people that could cure cancer, but instead they bought twoi their their their th th th th. their th. their th. their th. their th. th. th. thi thi thi their thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi, thi thi, thi, thi, thi, you're a thi, you're a thi, you're a thu-s, you thu-s, you thu-s, you thu-s, you thu. Yeah, you th. Yeah, you th. Yeah, you th. Yeah, you th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi, either thi cure cancer but instead they rob a bank. So like he could have solved the world's hunger problem but instead he bought Twitter. Right for six billion dollars he could solve world hunger. 44 billion. He can buy. He can just fight with AOC on Twitter.
Starting point is 00:49:36 Piece of shit. I mean, we're not, no controversial opinions here. What? A total today told a to'e. Oh, a total piece of shit. He's a total alien too. Him and Bezos and all those takes. Oh my God. Zuckerberg? You can't tell me that. That dude is not an alien. Him drinking water at the Senate, the earrings that he had to go to? Have you seen this? Or he's just like holding a cup in a way that no one's ever held a cup before and like, must drink liquid. Being careful not to short out as he does it. So Meg Foster shows up at the meeting. Right. She's like, I thought you were dead.
Starting point is 00:50:14 I'm so glad you're okay. She's like, I am so sorry, but he doesn't say anything back, Like, he's also, he should also be pretty sorry. He's not even mad at her. It's a real Justin Long. Oh my God, don't even start with me. So what happens then? They blew the goddamn wall off. No, before she says that the TV signal is clean. There's nothing going on at the TV station. Yes, don't worry about it, everything's fine there. How did the people at this meeting th thi thi me thi thi me thi me thi me thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, that, thi, thi, to fc' to fc, to fc, to fc, to fc, to fc, to fc, to fc, to fc, to fc, to fc, to fc, to f f fc. tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, thu f f f f f f thu f thu fc. thu fc. thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu to fc. to fc. to fucking to, to, to, to, too, too, too, to too, to to to to to thu. there. How did the people at this meeting not know her as a bad guy?
Starting point is 00:50:48 That I don't know because she's human. She's not an alien. She's just a collaborator. Okay, yeah. So yeah, a bomb goes off right after she's like, so anyway, do you want to go get a sandwich? And the bomb goes off. And I like when the cops are shooting everybody and they shoot two guys that she's the the their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their the bomb goes off. And I like when the cops are shooting everybody and they shoot two guys that she's standing next to and she gives them a look like, dog, I'm right here, don't shoot me. They get Peter Jason, they get an indigenous person that we've never seen before, no one should be spared. Just having a nice little shootout with the cops here.
Starting point is 00:51:21 Cop aliens I guess. And the cops just have like an unlimited amount of fully automatic bullets to shoot everybody. Yeah, so many of them. But luckily Operation Steel Fist was a success. Well like there's a scene where so Piper and Frank have gotten guns themselves. They're shooting, having shoot out with the cops. Yeah because there's just a table of guns thing going and guns and grenades. Sure. And he's just, he's so he. so so so so so so the the the so the the the so the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th th the th th th th th th th th th thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu th.

They're shooting, having a shootout with the cops. Yeah, because there's just a table of guns, thing going to guns and grenades. Sure. And he's just, he's so terrible at like explaining things. Like he's like, Frank, what?
Starting point is 00:51:54 Frank, what? There's like, just be like they have guns on us right now. I love when they run out of the meeting and they run it onto the street, because for a split second you see one of my favorite stuntman, henchman, Al Leon. You might remember him from the Die Hard episode. He's the guy who eats the butterfinger or Baby Ruth. Baby Ruth. But he just like runs out and runs down the street away from everything. And I was like, you're just in this for no reason. You don't even see his face but I was like, I recognize that guy. That's so great. We hear a voice say, your wristwatch has malfunctioned. The entryway will
Starting point is 00:52:29 close in 10 seconds and there's a big old hole in the ground. Because there's some reason at the meeting they gave Keith David a watch and they're like, I can't figure out how it works. Yeah. He takes it and just throws it on the ground and opens. And it opens it opens it opens it opens it opens it gotten sunglasses contacts so that they don't have to wear the sunglasses anymore, which is very funny. Very funny. Because you can't have your stars and sunglasses the entire time. So they jump down this hole and they find themselves in this long basement sort of corridor,
Starting point is 00:52:57 which felt a little bit like the end of us to me. Right, or, uh, uh, cabin in the woods. Yeah, that's like this industrial. Yeah. And who do they meet down here? Buck Flowers? Buckflower and a tuxedo. But first they, okay, so they,
Starting point is 00:53:18 oh, first they go to the meeting. They go to this gala where, like, they're holding guns and everyone else is in tuxes and ballgowns and there's a bartender just standing right behind them like fucking with glasses and pouring this and moving that it's like how does no one else see you? Like how is this happening right now? They're just so focused on making all this money and getting wealthier and wealthier. I guess the speech the man is giving is like by the year 2025 two th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the year 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the th. the th. th. thi. the the the the they. they. they're, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the they. they. they. they. they're, they're, they're, they. I they. I's, the thi. I's, thi. I's thier. I guess. The speech the man is giving is like, by the year 2025, not only America, but the entire planet will be under the protection and dominion of this power alliance.
Starting point is 00:53:51 And you're like, what are you talking about? What are you talking about? Like, how do these people benefit from the society? their their building? Because they're the people, no, not the people, the aliens. How do they benefit from the society? Oh, because they don't have to do any work because they've got these people to do work for them. What work?
Starting point is 00:54:10 What is Buckflower's doing? Okay, all right, all right, okay. Human Power elite. Human power elite? Ongoing quest for multi-dimensional expansion. That just sounds like a shitty wrestling tag team. Woodwatch. So they're wandering around, Buckflower sees them, and he's like, hey, I knew you guys would come around. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:33 You always struck me as smart. He did not strike me as smart, did Buck Flowers. You could put lipstick on that pig, but that's still a book flower at the end of the day. He takes them to a place where they see people their their their their their their their their their their their their they they they're they're their they're they're they're they're their thethe day. He takes them to a place where they see people getting like Star Trek beamed up. Uh-huh. Where are they? They go into their home planet, Alpha 7 Centauri Town. They see some like long string of alien names.
Starting point is 00:54:56 Something about bending the light? Mm-hmm. He doesn't know how it works. Then I just wrote satellites, thatlides, the the the the the the the the they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they're they're they're they're they're they're they go they're they're they're they're they're they're going they're going they're going they're they're they're they're they're they're they go. Where they go. Where they go. Where they go. Where they go. Where they go. Where they go? Where they go? Where they go? Where they go? Where they go? Where they they go they they they're they're they. He shows him the signal room, shows them the teleports. And they say you do it to your own kind. Like, we, and he's like, what's the threat? We all sell out every day. Might as well be on the winning team. I thought, I don't know, boy, capitalism.
Starting point is 00:55:23 So they start murdering fucking aliens. And meanwhile, Piper just fucking loves Holly now. Oh yeah, those eyes, those eyes, beautiful, beautiful eyes. Beautiful, beautiful eyes. Beautiful, beef eyes. Oh man, so they start murdering aliens and climbing the radio, or TV station flights of stairs and whatnot. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:50 Do you like that the alien cops have PKE meters from Ghostbusters? I didn't notice that. I'm so disappointed I didn't see it. You see it a few times. It's very funny. Yeah. So Holly turns heel. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:06 Oh, because they go upstairs to the TV station and they're like, hey, can you get us in there? We've never been in a TV station before. Can you show us how this works? Blackflower's like, I can. Those guys are personal friends of mine. Sorry, yes. So Holly shows up. And they go up to the roof. They all want to go to the roof for some reason, and they think that Holly's with them. And she's not, because we hear her shoot Keith David. We don't see his death, but we hear him get shot. So sad.
Starting point is 00:56:31 So sad. Like Holly, that wasn't cool. Yeah. So she comes up on the roof, theyper already is. shoots her. Yeah. She's got a gun on him also. Yeah. Because he's like, Holly, Frank, are you here with me? She's like, I'm here. I don't know if I'm with you. Turns around, gun. Yeah. So he shoots her. Yep. Then he gets shot. Yep. Then I wrote space lasers, question mark. Uh-huh. He looks at it through his contact lenses. he sees the space lasers. What are they doing now? They're making the space, so the conform and the consume and the merry and the reproduce.
Starting point is 00:57:10 Got it. Um, and there's a helicopter filled with cops up here as well. Right. And he gives a finger is his like last reaction. Right, because they shoot him and he throws a grenade at the thing. Yeah. And then we they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they th. they they th. th. th. th. th. the. the. the. throw. thi. the. tho tho thoomomomomom. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the. tomom. tomorrow tomorrow tomorrow tomorrow tomorrow tomorrow tomorrow tomorrow. tomorrow tooomorrow tooomorrow to conformed. thoom. thoomorrow. to the thing. Yeah. And then we see it blows up. We say it blows up. We see it cuts to like a TV and... It's the news reporters that we saw earlier. They're saying filmmakers like George Romero and John Carpenter have to show some restraint. Guy. So cute. So cute. You could have just said your friend you didn't need to say yourself to. You know what I mean? Why not? Why not? Live a little. Jerk yourself off every once in a while. Yeah, why not? Who's gonna tug it for you?
Starting point is 00:57:52 You know what? We all sell out every day. Might as well be on the winning team. Mama don't like no title tale.

But what happens while she's fucking this dude? He's an alien. He's an alien all of a sudden? Because the laser's been shut off, so now they know what's real? Oh, right, because he hit it with a grenade.
Starting point is 00:58:30 Okay, well, whatever. You got it. I mean, I was really hung up on just watching, commercials while fucking. So I like kind of missed the ti-o'n't, throw a little titty at the end for you. They were like, oh my god, oh my god, scrolling, scrolling, scrolling, no titties, no titties, oh fuck, some titties here at the end. Oh thank goodness. John, we're gonna need titties at the end of this movie. Yeah, and that is they live. Ten out of fucking ten. You are insane. Perfect. Perfect movie. It's not. It's not not not. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh.

This crap ass movie that you just called Perfect and gave it to, all right?
Starting point is 00:59:10 Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean it's no child's play too, but. You know, I think this suffered a bit for me because I watched on the heels of Barbarian, which was such an enthralling movie that I couldn't take my eyes off of it, and this is really a slog at points. Sure. Even like the two leads that I really do love, it was, there were points where I was just like, my God, what am I watching?
Starting point is 00:59:34 I appreciate the messaging. I'm sad it's been co-opted by the right. I wish I didn't know that. Sorry. That's fine. I think that his messaging is very muddied by his inability to put this together as a Coherent story, you know, I just sure it reeks of Prince of Darkness for me in that way. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, they're very similar films and a lot of ways. Yeah, it's just not for me. And I have to say I hate the score. I think the score is very bad and it- Oh, boom. No, you're doing George Sorrow good. T so good. T so good. T so good. T so good. T so good. T so th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, tho, thi, thi, tho, tho, tho, th, th, th, th have to say I hate the score. I think the score is very bad. No, you're doing George Surrogue now. That's Bon Auanawha. Fair. I just cannot stand it. I just cannot stand that score. And I love his music. So I am going to give this a five.
Starting point is 01:00:22 It's very middle of the road. Shhh. You could not have expected me to have loved this movie. I'm melting. When I, when you were watching it, were you thinking like, I wonder what Katie thinks of this? Or were you just like, ah. Katie is probably so, she's probably fucking shirtless pumping iron right now. What would I mean? She's gonna hurt my tits so bad. You gotta wear sports, bra? Jesus.
Starting point is 01:00:50 Oh, now I'm offended. Your pecks are so strong from pumping ti- Oh, they just hold these tits up. Okay, great. Carry on then. I mean this movie for me like totally seeing it at 14 years of age and searing it into my brain at that point in time like yeah it's perfect is it like I understand yes you are correct but yes and I love it it fair enough what are we gonna do next week I already forget hold Katie, what are we doing next week?

I still think Dick Miller's got him, but... I'm gonna look it up, I'm gonna look it up, wish I'm gonna forget the second I walk out this room.
