Annie Hall memento and young
[TS]

[TS]
◼
►
surprised that no Brooks didn't get more
[TS]
◼
►
love in the in the draft but he didn't
[TS]
◼
►
listen to john not john siracusa
[TS]
◼

although he says I war is i think i give
[TS]
◼
►
the title of the film festival champion
[TS]
◼
►
to John siracusa wait a second that's
[TS]
◼
►
actually be awfully suspect me said he
[TS]
◼
►
said Jones list is just patting us on
[TS]
◼
►
but he says it's a toss up with blank
[TS]
◼
►
baby with Scott McNulty himself haha
[TS]
◼
►
look at that where you up but in the end
[TS]
◼
►
he gave it to himself because this is
[TS]
◼
►
the smoke screens just see what this all
[TS]
◼
►
the fake twitter ID listener and
[TS]
◼
►
actually gave a rare compliment to glen
[TS]
◼
►
saying another deserve asserting that
[TS]
◼
►
possible at discerning film choice with
[TS]
◼
►
brother from another planet just saw it
[TS]
◼
►
again this weekend
[TS]
◼
►
Steve you saw funny bones didn't you
[TS]
◼
►
can you give us a little bit of a report
[TS]
◼
►
on that I I kind of heavy breathing I
[TS]
◼
►
kind of don't want to because I i got it
[TS]
◼
►
from netflix and was shocked to find
[TS]
◼
►
that there was a brief wait which means
[TS]
◼
►
that Glenn probably had it
[TS]
◼
►
that's the power of the incomparable a
[TS]
◼
►
tail end when you listen to this podcast
[TS]
◼
►
remember i'm barely on it so when you
[TS]
◼
►
kill everybody else
[TS]
◼
►
skip me if it could not have been the
[TS]
◼
►
uncomfortable because i actually I put
[TS]
◼
►
it on my cue prior to the airing of the
[TS]
◼
►
second half alright so they're just
[TS]
◼
►
there was consensus stay ahead of the
[TS]
◼
►
rush it was absolutely glad anyway once
[TS]
◼
►
it did arrive in the mail and and I was
[TS]
◼
►
really hoping that it was going to be
[TS]
◼
►
yeah unfortunately I have to report they
[TS]
◼
►
were just going to have to tweak gland
[TS]
◼
►
on all the usual levels and leave funny
[TS]
◼
►
bones off because i actually thought it
[TS]
◼
►
was pretty good right
[TS]
◼
►
I was surprised i don't want to go into
[TS]
◼
►
too much detail about it because I think
[TS]
◼
►
part of the reason i enjoyed it so much
[TS]
◼
►
is it's very unique
[TS]
◼
►
I've never really quite seen another
[TS]
◼
►
film like it and and and i think part of
[TS]
◼
►
the joy of that was having not heard a
[TS]
◼
►
single thing about it and also the fact
[TS]
◼
►
that I expected it to be absolutely
[TS]
◼
►
awful yeah yeah I mean that even Glenn
[TS]
◼
►
all he could really say about it was
[TS]
◼
►
Jerry Lewis's in it and I'm an enemy's
[TS]
◼
►
film Jerry Lewis tells terrible jokes
[TS]
◼
►
so and then I saw those guys think we
[TS]
◼
►
should from every other Jerry Lewis film
[TS]
◼
►
exactly that's the question right and
[TS]
◼
►
then I saw the the DVD cover which is
[TS]
◼
►
which adds to the sensation that it's a
[TS]
◼
►
complete stink bomb
[TS]
◼
►
I mean it's just I think Oliver Platt
[TS]
◼
►
walking in one way and Jerry Lewis
[TS]
◼
►
turned around walking the other way and
[TS]
◼
►
it looks it looks not so good but yeah I
[TS]
◼
►
watched it has the words Amy on it and
[TS]
◼
►
it wasn't really say me although it did
[TS]
◼
►
have clowns which if you're the type of
[TS]
◼
►
person that shiz from clouds as I am I
[TS]
◼
►
you know I i continue to watch it
[TS]
◼
►
because because I was just shocked I was
[TS]
◼
►
having witnessed the first clown and so
[TS]
◼
►
I watch the rest of the film unable to
[TS]
◼
►
actually turn the thing off but so it's
[TS]
◼
►
unique and pretty good
[TS]
◼
►
you said it was unique and a and not all
[TS]
◼
►
actually that's perhaps the one thing
[TS]
◼
►
that I that I can say that sort of
[TS]
◼
►
negative about it is it's it's sort of
[TS]
◼
►
like it reminds me a little bit of you
[TS]
◼
►
remember of studio 60 yes when when we
[TS]
◼
►
were repeatedly told that was a danny
[TS]
◼
►
trip to see the writer was the red can
[TS]
◼
►
no matter Danny Danny is Magic Eraser
[TS]
◼
►
Matt ok sir we did we were told that he
[TS]
◼
►
is this you know super genius and he's
[TS]
◼
►
absolutely hilarious and then what we
[TS]
◼
►
get is what Gilbert and Sullivan cold
[TS]
◼
►
yes that that wasn't even funny for
[TS]
◼
►
Gilbert and Sullivan is just wasn't
[TS]
◼
►
yeah and and disagree yeah and and a lot
[TS]
◼
►
of that is a is present and funny bones
[TS]
◼
►
where you know we keep being told that
[TS]
◼
►
these guys are absolutely hilarious and
[TS]
◼
►
then we see their routines and it's
[TS]
◼
►
something other than malaria mean
[TS]
◼
►
there's a there's a bit with the with
[TS]
◼
►
lee evans where he's basically miming
[TS]
◼
►
what's going on on the radio
[TS]
◼
►
in this extremely frenetic fashion and
[TS]
◼
►
technically you could you look at it and
[TS]
◼
►
you appreciate it because you know he's
[TS]
◼
►
really doing a great job of acting it
[TS]
◼
►
out but it's not actually funny and
[TS]
◼
►
you're watching this crowd laughs
[TS]
◼
►
uproariously as though they as they
[TS]
◼
►
think it's the funniest thing I've ever
[TS]
◼
►
seen and yet it's just it's just not
[TS]
◼
►
happening so i wouldn't watch it for
[TS]
◼
►
humor sake but it's a very interesting
[TS]
◼
►
film and I think I i probably will watch
[TS]
◼
►
it again before i send it back just so i
[TS]
◼
►
can get a better feel for what I really
[TS]
◼
►
think about it but it's definitely worth
[TS]
◼
►
a watch I I wouldn't put it in my top
[TS]
◼
►
five certainly but as far as additional
[TS]
◼
►
ways with which I can abuse Glenn I'm
[TS]
◼
►
gonna have to buy off how does it
[TS]
◼
►
compare to highlander I've never got
[TS]
◼
►
around to see highlights eating
[TS]
◼
►
highlander I have to and now you're
[TS]
◼
►
are there bones I there are there is
[TS]
◼
►
mention of of bones of the funny variety
[TS]
◼
►
free ok Lois you said it was very funny
[TS]
◼
►
and it's like it's in the title so right
[TS]
◼
►
right and jerry lewis is not he's he's
[TS]
◼
►
basically just present in a variety of
[TS]
◼
►
scenes so I would expect that differing
[TS]
◼
►
the funny question up quite a bit but it
[TS]
◼
►
okay thank you for that report that's
[TS]
◼
►
our that's our own film Glenn Glenn film
[TS]
◼
►

elevator and then and then let's never

[TS]
◼
►
minute that you couldn't
[TS]
◼
►
why was that nobody put on their list
[TS]
◼
►
the exorcist or what I considered it but
[TS]
◼
►
they're there is a scene that involves
[TS]
◼
►
copious amounts of vomit and i would say
[TS]
◼
►
that the the five-year-old in my home
[TS]
◼
►
vastly exceeded the quantities of homage
[TS]
◼
►
shown in that film all and so we're
[TS]
◼
►
drafting movies that the I you know it's
[TS]
◼
►
over i'm literally putting putting her
[TS]
◼
►
to sleep and saying okay I'm gonna go
[TS]
◼
►
i'm getting ready now to start no I'm
[TS]
◼
►
sure she'd been asleep for a couple
[TS]
◼
►
hours because this it was your time not
[TS]
◼
►
my time and is so but she's been asleep
[TS]
◼
►

◼
►

[TS]
◼
►
wakes up and starts throwing up
[TS]
◼
►
everywhere it was horrible she saw be
[TS]
◼
►
happy but she's fine now she's really
[TS]
◼
►
fine then but not a fan of being
[TS]
◼
►
comfortable with I i kept I kept i was
[TS]
◼
►
texting a Dannan and read and say hey I
[TS]
◼
►
think I can be there in 20 minutes and i
[TS]
◼
►

[TS]
◼
►

[TS]
◼
►
you know what it's just it's just not
[TS]
◼
►
going to happen and it did not happen
[TS]
◼
►
and it didn't i'm here now so do you
[TS]
◼
►
have that you know we and we also joke
[TS]
◼
►
that there are lots of movies that you
[TS]
◼
►
haven't seen what we don't joke about it
[TS]
◼
►
we stated the fact that it is bright but
[TS]
◼
►
welcome to our spin-off podcast yes well
[TS]
◼
►
it's what we are not showing it would
[TS]
◼
►
likely not showing la on playing with
[TS]
◼
►
Lex free blacks Friedman solex do you
[TS]
◼
►
have have you seen five movies that are
[TS]
◼
►
available that you could pick by yes i
[TS]
◼
►
have a list of 14 in the five that I
[TS]
◼
►
narrowed it down to was very hard it was
[TS]
◼
►
like you know killing children but
[TS]
◼
►
the five children perhaps yes those are
[TS]
◼
►
easier to kill but slippery I all five
[TS]
◼
►
of them i would say qualifies comedies
[TS]
◼
►
because i'm a simple person and i think
[TS]
◼
►
only two of them could really qualify as
[TS]
◼
►
nerdy but here we go in no particular
[TS]
◼
►
order the five greatest movies that i
[TS]
◼
►
would put in my draft are my cousin
[TS]
◼
►
vinny who which I just saw for the first
[TS]
◼
►
really yeah did you enjoy it I enjoyed
[TS]
◼
►
okay I believe that my cousin Vinny's
[TS]
◼
►
one of the best paste movie comedies of
[TS]
◼
►
all time and it's just written it'sit's
[TS]
◼
►
mean the writing is really type marisa
[TS]
◼
►
tomei Oscar came from the phrase marisa
[TS]
◼
►
tomei Oscar exists French windows the
[TS]
◼
►
yeah i saw the movie in college and was
[TS]
◼
►
not expecting picked it up kind of as a
[TS]
◼
►
rainy day movie and was not expecting it
[TS]
◼
►
to be as smart and funny is it actually
[TS]
◼
►
I mean I have seen that movie easily 30
[TS]
◼
►
40 50 times and I still enjoy new things
[TS]
◼
►
about it each time I see it I watching
[TS]
◼
►
the other movies instead though yeah
[TS]
◼
►
when Joe Pesci get shot in the back of
[TS]
◼
►
the head haha ok that's one of the
[TS]
◼
►
things that makes the movie so
[TS]
◼
►
surprising and delightful is that you
[TS]
◼
►
know coming out of Goodfellas wacky i
[TS]
◼
►
think is the word you're looking for is
[TS]
◼
►
nowacki very specifically wacky and also
[TS]
◼
►
i would say that Ralph Macchio gives the
[TS]
◼
►
performance of a lifetime but if he
[TS]
◼
►
doesn't sweep away i thought the karate
[TS]
◼
►
kid was his performance of a lifetime
[TS]
◼
►
I've ever seen that one right into our
[TS]
◼
►
hands and we should have i wish i had a
[TS]
◼
►
little jingle that will wear for
[TS]
◼
►
professional singers play lex hasn't
[TS]
◼
►
oh that can be arranged Jason honestly
[TS]
◼
►
can you go through life without having
[TS]
◼
►
heard wax on wax off
[TS]
◼
►
no i mean i can appreciate the
[TS]
◼
►
references i just never actually selects
[TS]
◼
►
ok so that's number one you've got
[TS]
◼
►
you've got it and it's not the cryptic
[TS]
◼
►
number two dozen video got it
[TS]
◼
►
number two is the first of two michael j
[TS]
◼
►
fox appearances on my list and it is
[TS]
◼
►
back to the future and i went with the
[TS]
◼
►
original because it's I think the most
[TS]
◼
►
classic of the three classics with I
[TS]
◼
►
mean the entire trilogy is excellent but
[TS]
◼
►
it's the original back
[TS]
◼
►
the future and the reason i can praise
[TS]
◼
►
back to the future so greatly is you've
[TS]
◼
►
seen it in the s in the modern world if
[TS]
◼
►
your fictional creation whether it's
[TS]
◼
►
book movie television where it follows
[TS]
◼
►
the rules of time travel as established
[TS]
◼
►
by back to the future
[TS]
◼
►
you don't have to explain that because
[TS]
◼
►
you can assume that people's
[TS]
◼
►
understanding people's modern
[TS]
◼
►
understanding of how time travel would
[TS]
◼
►
could should work is as established by
[TS]
◼
►
back to the future you only have to
[TS]
◼
►
explain your rules if they differ
[TS]
◼
►
because back to the future has become
[TS]
◼
►
the norm and i think that's that's a
[TS]
◼
►
very impressive feat for a mid eighties
[TS]
◼
►
move into it she was actually an episode
[TS]
◼
►
of Doctor Who which is a show that
[TS]
◼
►
predates back to the future by 20 years
[TS]
◼
►
but it's been on for 50 years so we're
[TS]
◼
►
here to explain something about time
[TS]
◼
►
travel they make a reference to back to
[TS]
◼
►
the future it's like what wait a second
[TS]
◼
►
yeah but you're but but but if people i
[TS]
◼
►
know my understanding of Time Traveler's
[TS]
◼
►
paradoxes are is resolved by people
[TS]
◼
►
disappearing from the feet up in photos
[TS]
◼
►
it's a bit wars with Bill and Ted's
[TS]
◼
►
Excellent Adventure for me in terms of
[TS]
◼
►
you know time travel mechanics paradoxes
[TS]
◼
►
begin at ground level
[TS]
◼
►
Greg and then they move up the science
[TS]
◼
►
its can agree I agree that the photo the
[TS]
◼
►
fading photo is ridiculous but I think
[TS]
◼
►
it works very well as a storytelling
[TS]
◼
►
device so I'm willing I'll allow it
[TS]
◼
►
thank you all so sweet sweet are ya its
[TS]
◼
►
back to the future is not as hard
[TS]
◼
►
science fiction as I had hoped said I
[TS]
◼
►
mean I just feel like it's got plutonium
[TS]
◼
►
and Libyans terrorists i just showed
[TS]
◼
►
back to the future yesterday to my
[TS]
◼
►
eight-year-old daughter and she loved it
[TS]
◼
►

[TS]
◼
►

◼
►

[TS]
◼
►

►

◼
►

◼
►

◼
►

◼
►

◼
►

[TS]
◼
►
quite surprised by how much
[TS]
◼
►
expository talk there is from michael j
[TS]
◼
►
fox which actually turned out to be
[TS]
◼
►
great because but I I kept finding
[TS]
◼
►
myself pointing out okay well you know
[TS]
◼
►
he's setting the time back so that you
[TS]
◼
►
know he can get back in time to save Doc
[TS]
◼
►
Brown from the Libyans and then he
[TS]
◼
►
actually says I'll set the time back so
[TS]
◼
►
i can save talk around from olivia's so
[TS]
◼
►
your name is Michael J Fox saying it

◼
►

[TS]
◼
►

[TS]
◼
►
was great for the eight-year-old because
[TS]
◼
►
I I after a while I just SAT back and
[TS]
◼
►
let cool well i'll just wait for him to
[TS]
◼
►
point it out this movie explains itself
[TS]
◼
►
and i was it's it's the only movie on my
[TS]
◼
►
list i believe that has implied incest
[TS]
◼
►
so that's where and when Christopher
[TS]
◼
►
Lloyd christopher lloyd was the star
[TS]
◼
►
trek 3 so that's it all comes better use
[TS]
◼
►
a clean lines he won't be getting ready
[TS]
◼
►
for which has time travel
[TS]
◼
►

[TS]
◼
►
the scenes this next movie
[TS]
◼
►
hey I it's the one I would say that I'm
[TS]
◼
►
closest to being embarrassed about for
[TS]
◼
►
having it on my list but I believe it
[TS]
◼
►
gets funnier and funnier with repeat
[TS]
◼
►
viewings and it is the Julie Roberts
[TS]
◼
►
Hugh Grant vehicle notting hill
[TS]
◼
►
oh not again I think it's a good movie
[TS]
◼
►
it's really i saw it and liked it i've
[TS]
◼
►
only seen it the one time but the only
[TS]
◼
►
problem I had with Notting Hill even
[TS]
◼
►
though i love it is that if you great
[TS]
◼
►
really has no reason to fall for and be
[TS]
◼
►
in love with Julia Roberts's character
[TS]
◼
►
other than the fact that you know she's
[TS]
◼
►
a movie star but she is just horrible to
[TS]
◼
►
him for about ninety eight percent of
[TS]
◼
►
the film but it's exactly the reason you
[TS]
◼
►
fall in love most of the time and i'm
[TS]
◼
►
doing a rock from a distance but I mean
[TS]
◼
►
that movie is very the the British isms
[TS]
◼
►
that move your excellent which I'm sure
[TS]
◼
►
day more could appreciate and it's being
[TS]
◼
►
bred material may try yes but it's I
[TS]
◼
►
don't know it's it's it's very very
[TS]
◼
►
nicely it's not just well written
[TS]
◼
►
it's so nicely performed that the
[TS]
◼
►
performances especially for Hugh Grant
[TS]
◼
►
it'sit's like the classic you greater
[TS]
◼
►
role where he can put all of his
[TS]
◼
►
stammering endeavoring to
[TS]
◼
►
the max and staring at number two
[TS]
◼
►
separate things that he does and the
[TS]
◼
►
scene where he doesn't realize that
[TS]
◼
►
he'll be meeting with the famed actress
[TS]
◼
►
during a press junket for her latest to
[TS]
◼
►
him and he spots the magazine on the
[TS]
◼
►
counter says he's there representing
[TS]
◼
►
it's just like one of the funniest
[TS]
◼
►
scenes in cinematography history about a
[TS]
◼
►
boy is my favorite Hugh Grant movie
[TS]
◼
►
that's a that's an excellent that was
[TS]
◼
►
yeah yeah that's a good thing but that's
[TS]
◼
►
good okay what and and very sci-fi
[TS]
◼
►
connection i feel i should point out
[TS]
◼
►
there's 1,000,000 Robert Julia Roberts
[TS]
◼
►
in a science fiction right because he
[TS]
◼
►
says are there any horses movie and she
[TS]
◼
►
says well it's set in space and it's
[TS]
◼
►
I number four is michael j fox second
[TS]
◼
►
appearance it's the American president
[TS]
◼
►
it's it's very hard to pick my i really
[TS]
◼
►
like presidents I like movies about
[TS]
◼
►
presidents it was hard to pick my
[TS]
◼
►
favorite presidential movie but the
[TS]
◼
►
American president as a just seeing the
[TS]
◼
►
president estates playing the chief of
[TS]
◼
►
staff that beat update it does you don't
[TS]
◼
►
even know my uncle is going to take but
[TS]
◼
►
ya know the American president is so
[TS]
◼
►
great that your uncle was in Dave a part
[TS]
◼
►
of Glen flashby isn't what I want the
[TS]
◼
►
American president I feel in competition
[TS]
◼
►
with all these other films on my list is
[TS]
◼
►
is flawed in many ways it's not
[TS]
◼
►
perfectly written it's not properly
[TS]
◼
►
perform but the whole truly is greater
[TS]
◼
►
than its a its parts as you sum them
[TS]
◼
►
just because it's not so much of it
[TS]
◼
►
works so well and just especially if you
[TS]
◼
►
watch it after having consumed and fully
[TS]
◼
►
digested the west wing you can
[TS]
◼
►
appreciate it i think even more and it's
[TS]
◼
►
great it's really good it's basically
[TS]
◼
►
like the pilot of the west wing I mean
[TS]
◼
►
it with the Western was what if we did
[TS]
◼
►
this is a show right that's exactly this
[TS]
◼
►
is he literally started with no
[TS]
◼
►
storylines they dropped from American
[TS]
◼
►
president to start the west and it's
[TS]
◼
►
like Martin Sheen your the spear the
[TS]
◼
►
hmm how would you like a promotion it's
[TS]
◼
►
on TV but technically it's a criminology
[TS]
◼
►
couldn't get Michael Douglas and
[TS]
◼
►
it'sit's creates kits crazy to watch the
[TS]
◼
►
movie now to see because you know Martin
[TS]
◼
►
she's supposed to be the president and
[TS]
◼
►
yet he's not it's bizarre
[TS]
◼
►
it is weird bizarre and number five
[TS]
◼
►
yes because nobody has anything else to
[TS]
◼
►
say that the American president
[TS]
◼
►
but you can't handle the truth wait no
[TS]
◼
►
that's totally not the wrong with an
[TS]
◼
►
even number five and i think my favorite
[TS]
◼
►
movie of the list is being john
[TS]
◼
►
malkovich huh like that movie people do
[TS]
◼
►
like that I like that movie too like
[TS]
◼
►
that the only thing I can say about John
[TS]
◼
►
Malkovich being young off which is that
[TS]
◼
►
this last over christmas we had a white
[TS]
◼
►
elephant party for my roller derby team
[TS]
◼
►
and I got a series of like babushka
[TS]
◼
►
Russian nesting dolls which 1i that were
[TS]
◼
►
yes fish your letter baby are in the
[TS]
◼
►
yes they they had the face of John
[TS]
◼
►
Malkovich on them and when you open them
[TS]
◼
►
up then they're all the different
[TS]
◼
►
characters of john malkovich who go into
[TS]
◼
►
his brain and then the tiniest little
[TS]
◼
►
one is just a black speck of of
[TS]
◼
►
nothingness which is a lovely metaphor
[TS]
◼
►
for the who's bringing the podcast down
[TS]
◼
►
yeah charlie charlie kaufman's
[TS]
◼
►
screenplays are all over the place this
[TS]
◼
►
is one for me this is one of the good
[TS]
◼
►
ones that i have a well-known just like
[TS]
◼
►
for adaptation which is another one of
[TS]
◼
►
his but this this is I think him on on
[TS]
◼
►
the upswing mrs. of the things I feel
[TS]
◼
►
like this is this is this is his Grand
[TS]
◼
►
Slam yeah where everything else I feel
[TS]
◼
►
like it's trying too hard to be John
[TS]
◼
►
Malkovich ask but I mean when you when
[TS]
◼
►
you describe viously you cannot describe
[TS]
◼
►
the premise of Being John Malkovich
[TS]
◼
►
without sounding ridiculous but what I
[TS]
◼
►
think is what drives it into excellence
[TS]
◼
►
is that it's not just the ridiculous
[TS]
◼
►
parts that are ridiculous it everything
[TS]
◼
►
that's ridiculous got a moment when you
[TS]
◼
►
think it's ridiculous enough and then
[TS]
◼
►
John Malkovich goes inside his own brain
[TS]
◼
►
that yes that's the moment we're like
[TS]
◼
►
wow what what am I see so many mouths
[TS]
◼
►
but the the seven-and-a-half floor the
[TS]
◼
►
the exiting onto the new jersey turnpike
[TS]
◼
►
the fact that he wants to be a man
[TS]
◼
►
becomes eventually the famed puppeteer
[TS]
◼
►
like all of it is ridiculous and it's
[TS]
◼
►
all I manado I think it's great i can
[TS]
◼
►
watch that's what the five movies I
[TS]
◼
►
picked my selection criteria was movies
[TS]
◼
►
that I could watch endlessly forever
[TS]
◼
►
whenever they are on and I think
[TS]
◼
►
Malkovich holds the the championship in
[TS]
◼
►
that title for me but I really
[TS]
◼
►
yeah i think i saw that once in like
[TS]
◼
►
leaders i don't think i've ever seen it
[TS]
◼
►
since and I think I'm okay with that and
[TS]
◼
►
nothing I didn't like it i just i'd i
[TS]
◼
►
can't imagine a scenario which I was
[TS]
◼
►
like yeah let's really rewatch that but
[TS]
◼
►
those are good those that was that was a
[TS]
◼
►
great list thank you thank you had
[TS]
◼
►
nobody nobody projectile-vomited as far
[TS]
◼
►
as I could tell and if they did they use
[TS]
◼
►
their mute switch so good
[TS]
◼
►
I've locked the door here tonight if
[TS]
◼
►
they're vomiting elsewhere i don't know
[TS]
◼
►
about it in the house
[TS]
◼
►
Greg notice you are you Greg would you
[TS]
◼
►
like to pick Star Wars I would indeed
[TS]
◼
►
ok and anybody who wouldn't is a solar
[TS]
◼
►
shallow shell of a human being so with
[TS]
◼
►
your first election and i'm going with
[TS]
◼
►
the raft you're going to take star wars
[TS]
◼
►
star wars nothing but side in mind the
[TS]
◼
►
next four choices r star wars as well
[TS]
◼
►
alright we can we can refer everybody
[TS]
◼
►
back to our two-part Star Wars podcast
[TS]
◼
►
where Greg participated and explains
[TS]
◼
►
very much why life for him is divided
[TS]
◼
►
into pre star wars and post star wars
[TS]
◼
►
and it was a life-changing event and you
[TS]
◼
►
know what it is a good movie and and I I
[TS]
◼
►
feel bad that it didn't get picked
[TS]
◼
►
because i think that Empire just sort of
[TS]
◼
►
like everybody's like all right we've
[TS]
◼
►
represented star wars and we'll move on
[TS]
◼
►
and i'm not sure whether that was the
[TS]
◼
►
right thing to do or not so you know I
[TS]
◼
►
understand the artistic and technical
[TS]
◼
►
achievement of empire but it's just it's
[TS]
◼
►
a sequel it's an in established universe
[TS]
◼
►
its characters that we already know it's
[TS]
◼
►
not going from 0 to star wars now wasn't
[TS]
◼
►
it you who told me recently that aliens
[TS]
◼
►
was better than alien yes Jessie Kathryn
[TS]
◼
►
but they're different did alien and
[TS]
◼
►
aliens are two totally different yeah
[TS]
◼
►
they share the area yeah but there are
[TS]
◼
►
two totally different movies and
[TS]
◼
►
different genres even well there was an
[TS]
◼
►
entire the city that on the characters
[TS]
◼
►
the whole tone of the thing was with a
[TS]
◼
►
legit built up by alien but I mean I
[TS]
◼
►
understand there's another difference
[TS]
◼
►
later that survives a Sigourney Weaver
[TS]
◼
►
in the Geiger design
[TS]
◼
►
well yeah but the whole the whole
[TS]
◼
►
android that you don't trust in the kind
[TS]
◼
►
of gritty blue-collar spacemen thing
[TS]
◼
►
that all comes from the first movie
[TS]
◼
►
yeah what they lift the first movie is
[TS]
◼
►
space long-haul truckers the second
[TS]
◼
►
movie Space Marines it's a it's a horror
[TS]
◼
►
movie vs of war movie
[TS]
◼
►
I just think they're two totally
[TS]
◼
►
different things and
[TS]
◼
►
aliens is better than alien to each his
[TS]
◼
►
own i say by the way like Empire better
[TS]
◼
►
to just let you know happiness is my
[TS]
◼
►
second choice would have been Monty
[TS]
◼
►
Python but that got picked
[TS]
◼
►
yeah so i'm going to substitute the
[TS]
◼
►
three stooges short a plumbing we will
[TS]
◼
►
go as my comedy touchstone wow if you
[TS]
◼
►
haven't seen it and you have a
[TS]
◼
►
y-chromosome go out and see it now it
[TS]
◼
►
actually reminded the jar on my desk if
[TS]
◼
►
I keep mine in a little tick box on my
[TS]
◼
►
I keep Lex's in a jar on my desk so
[TS]
◼
►
weird it is funny as hell and it is
[TS]
◼
►
immature as hell and goofy as hell and
[TS]
◼
►
all of those are great things for a
[TS]
◼
►
young boy growing up who sees the world
[TS]
◼
►
through five o'clock reruns on KTLA in
[TS]
◼
►
Los Angeles my third choice would have
[TS]
◼
►
been breakfast club and so instead of
[TS]
◼
►
breakfast club what we're gonna do is
[TS]
◼
►
just on my day we will sit in the
[TS]
◼
►
theater for silently for two hours and
[TS]
◼
►
we will all be miserable because that's
[TS]
◼
►
pretty much my memory of the time that
[TS]
◼
►
breakfast club came we would invite some
[TS]
◼
►
football players from a local high
[TS]
◼
►
school to come if you people beat the
[TS]
◼
►
Nerds up for two hours yeah it great
[TS]
◼
►
everybody's seen it some some new bully
[TS]
◼
►
will rotate through the theater
[TS]
◼
►
intimidating people taking their money
[TS]
◼
►
and making threatening violence out
[TS]
◼
►
about the people's lives
[TS]
◼
►
that's why I felt that we should have
[TS]
◼
►
the backpackers common and serve popcorn
[TS]
◼
►
because then we'd all feel better about
[TS]
◼
►
so what this is about the jocks will
[TS]
◼
►
come and beat us up that's number three
[TS]
◼
►
that which i think it encompasses the
[TS]
◼
►
experience of the incomparable film
[TS]
◼
►
festival and the number four and nobody
[TS]
◼
►
picked any sneakers didn't get picked
[TS]
◼
►
no it was on somebody's shit was on my
[TS]
◼
►
honorable mention was i'm picking more
[TS]
◼
►
no it's not you're gonna bring a tear to
[TS]
◼
►
John Syracuse's I it's a great movie
[TS]
◼
►
it's a lot of fun and
[TS]
◼
►
I I i wrote a program called falken
[TS]
◼
►
shortly after the movie came out it and
[TS]
◼
►
that is a good movie
[TS]
◼
►
no real estate is no real genius but it
[TS]
◼
►
is a good is a very good movie wargames
[TS]
◼
►
was the first movie I saw that showed a
[TS]
◼
►
world that I was into which was BBS's
[TS]
◼
►
and then going online and all kinds of
[TS]
◼
►
super cool stuff that was just starting
[TS]
◼
►
out that kind of helped build the world
[TS]
◼
►
that we live in and I connected with me
[TS]
◼
►
I'm not realize there's a lot of
[TS]
◼
►
silliness there you know Matthew
[TS]
◼
►
Broderick running around threatening to
[TS]
◼
►
destroy the world through a 300 baud
[TS]
◼
►
modem but it could it's a great movie
[TS]
◼
►
and it's gonna take awhile clicks every
[TS]
◼
►
one of these movies it top to bottom is
[TS]
◼
►
something that changed my life in some
[TS]
◼
►
way because it spoke to me more than
[TS]
◼
►
it's its technical sophistication and
[TS]
◼
►
more than the quality of its writing
[TS]
◼
►
laser brain and the Senate a movie is a
[TS]
◼
►
piece of art and you connect to a piece
[TS]
◼
►
of art independent from every one of
[TS]
◼
►
those things and so screw you search
[TS]
◼
►
uh-huh in summit that's what I'm really
[TS]
◼
►
something up to here but used to potato
[TS]
◼
►
head he actually likes war game so well
[TS]
◼
►
and all right you should have said that
[TS]
◼
►
earlier but uh ok war games and then
[TS]
◼
►
ranted rounding out my rant about art is
[TS]
◼
►
fifth is devices is guy heart that
[TS]
◼
►
well-known yes Alan Rickman is a
[TS]
◼
►
fantastic actor a Hans Gruber is an
[TS]
◼
►
amazing character and John McClane is
[TS]
◼
►
I'm and diehard just kind of comes
[TS]
◼
►
together in a way that defines action
[TS]
◼
►
movies everybody smart which is really
[TS]
◼
►
really rare and they all make totally
[TS]
◼
►
sensible decisions and it's fun
[TS]
◼
►
I i think i mentioned this on a previous
[TS]
◼
►
podcast but a die-hard came at a time in
[TS]
◼
►
my life when I dropped out of school and
[TS]
◼
►
was living with my parents and I would
[TS]
◼
►
go to see the matinees at the local
[TS]
◼
►
theater because it was two bucks at 11pm
[TS]
◼
►
and i came out at our height diehard at
[TS]
◼
►
one in the morning just incredibly amped
[TS]
◼
►
to amp to go home and go to sleep so I
[TS]
◼
►
just kind of stopped around the Baron
[TS]
◼
►
mall pretending I was shooting bad guys
[TS]
◼
►
you're going to edit this right Jason
[TS]
◼
►
and let's say I'm doing the matter how
[TS]
◼
►
old you were when you're doing this 20
[TS]
◼
►
yeah i have not yet seen die hard
[TS]
◼
►
ah have you seen war games i have seen
[TS]
◼
►
more games have you seen Star Wars I the
[TS]
◼
►
first one yet have you seen a plumbing
[TS]
◼
►
we will go oh I'm sorry i have not have
[TS]
◼
►
you have you sat in a theater for two
[TS]
◼
►
hours and cried all jocks beat you up
[TS]
◼
►
that's why I stopped seeing movies
[TS]
◼
►
actually so do we just declare me the
[TS]
◼
►
victor now or something with every break
[TS]
◼
►
making martinis served during and after
[TS]
◼
►
the the two hours of silence and said
[TS]
◼
►
that's so so that but just to get back
[TS]
◼
►
to this star wars empire thing because
[TS]
◼
►
it did come up you know your your your
[TS]
◼
►
can avoid it is what this podcast is
[TS]
◼
►
about your argument is is at its core
[TS]
◼
►
that star wars is the original movie and
[TS]
◼
►
it created the world and although Empire
[TS]
◼
►
is a in many ways a a better filmmaking
[TS]
◼
►
achievement it's better directed it's
[TS]
◼
►
got a better budget the characters are
[TS]
◼
►
more are given more to do that that why
[TS]
◼
►
you prefer Star Wars is because not only
[TS]
◼
►
was it a revelation because it was
[TS]
◼
►
completely new when you saw it but
[TS]
◼
►
because it's set everything in motion
[TS]
◼
►
whereas Empire all it had to do is take
[TS]
◼
►
the baton from this incredibly
[TS]
◼
►
successful first movie is that about
[TS]
◼
►
right before Star Wars there was no star
[TS]
◼
►
wars after Star Wars it had altered our
[TS]
◼
►
culture and what a notion of a movie
[TS]
◼
►
blockbuster was and how movie
[TS]
◼
►
merchandising was happening and this
[TS]
◼
►
seminal event in it i'm willing to guess
[TS]
◼
►
everyone of our lives at least the ones
[TS]
◼
►
were old enough to have had a pre Star
[TS]
◼
►
Wars existence that wasn't you know in
[TS]
◼
►
I appreciate Empire I think it's great
[TS]
◼
►
movie but Star Wars is an experience
[TS]
◼
►
it's an event it's a it's a milestone
[TS]
◼
►
it's a cultural this message to five
[TS]
◼
►
best events Greg come on movies 5
[TS]
◼
►
decimal and maybe this is an event
[TS]
◼
►
that's a movie i agree with it on a
[TS]
◼
►
view sure star wars are very very
[TS]
◼
►
important movie it should get how will
[TS]
◼
►
be ready to start word it that Empire
[TS]
◼
►
you know took all of that iterated on it
[TS]
◼
►
to a point where made it even better
[TS]
◼
►
oh you can improve on and I just I just
[TS]
◼
►
need a link right now you know the Mona
[TS]
◼
►
Lisa to point was a great Patrick it's
[TS]
◼
►
it's twice as good
[TS]
◼
►
Wow and Syracuse it makes the argument
[TS]
◼
►
that it's a i'm making a degree of
[TS]

difficulty argument that that getting
[TS]
◼
►
Star Wars made and having it be good is
[TS]
◼
►
harder than getting Empire made and
[TS]
◼
►
having it be good but i don't care i
[TS]
◼
►
think that that goes into it
[TS]
◼
►
everything that goes into making up star
[TS]
◼
►
wars is part of the film and it to
[TS]
◼
►
consider it as just a movie or or even
[TS]
◼
►
worse just a movie that didn't have a
[TS]
◼
►
time before it existed is missing out on
[TS]
◼
►
what it does and what it created all
[TS]
◼
►
right John syracuse it's your turn for
[TS]
◼
►
he had a three-hour little he's not here
[TS]
◼
►
podcast I john sorry John did after
[TS]
◼
►
Glenn kills the rest of you John coming
[TS]
◼
►
out that's I think exactly what's gonna
[TS]
◼
►
happen so I'm to the existing
[TS]
◼
►
participants of the of the movie drafted
[TS]
◼
►
in in listening back and and thinking
[TS]
◼
►
back to the the the slates that you
[TS]
◼
►
drafted you have any anything you were
[TS]
◼
►
you regret are you pretty happy with
[TS]
◼
►
your selections I almost kind of regret
[TS]
◼
►
not picking gattaca once once guy
[TS]
◼
►
brought it out it was a lot of heaven i
[TS]
◼
►
love on Twitter the other night there
[TS]
◼
►
was a lot of Attica love on Twitter it
[TS]
◼
►
was that movie was on my top five until
[TS]
◼
►
mid college and I haven't thought about
[TS]
◼
►
it in a couple years but there's there's
[TS]
◼
►
a lot I mean that that movie and I take
[TS]
◼
►
most of internal stuff is pretty
[TS]
◼
►
underrated in terms of I seem to
[TS]
◼
►
remember not a lot of people were really
[TS]
◼
►
into it I saw it first in a biology
[TS]
◼
►
class of all things even though it's not
[TS]
◼
►
exactly the the most accurate
[TS]
◼
►
representation of of genomics placing
[TS]
◼
►
but it's still that the whole concept of
[TS]
◼
►
being able to rise above what your your
[TS]
◼
►
jeans are programmed to do in and great
[TS]
◼
►
performances by all of the cast involved
[TS]
◼
►
it's a it's a very solid movie that has
[TS]
◼
►
this this science-fiction bent but is
[TS]
◼
►
very much about it's a human story it's
[TS]
◼
►
it's very much about ethan hawke and and
[TS]
◼
►
his journey and there's a family aspect
[TS]
◼
►
and and really really cool stuff about
[TS]
◼
►
and there's a murder mystery in the
[TS]
◼
►
middle of it edit
[TS]
◼
►
it's it's a really really great movie i
[TS]
◼
►
don't know where I would put it in my
[TS]
◼
►
top five now because it would it would
[TS]
◼
►
probably end out Rocketeer but i don't
[TS]
◼
►

◼
►
