Starting point is 00:00:00 Doug hates candy wrappers, screaming babies, sticky seeds with 50 azipop or kernels in his teeth. There's still not one that he won't see, cause Doug loves movies! Wow, the audience is really close to me this particular episode. So I guess I won't have to stand up to go talk to people in the audience. There's a dude right here. Don't peek at my notes, man, while I'm doing the show.
Starting point is 00:00:41 Did I say hey, everybody? My name is Doug, and I love movies. I'd like to thank everyone who came to my shows last weekend in Eugene, Portland and Bend, Oregon. And in Eugene
Starting point is 00:00:57 was a particularly interesting show because people kept yelling take it off the whole time I was on stage. And then later and the rest of the weekend whenever I'd ask why do people in Eugene keep saying take it off, the whole time I was on stage. And then later and the rest of the weekend, whenever I'd ask, why do people in Eugene keep saying, take it off, the response in Eugene and then in Portland and then in Bend was always, they would shrug and go, it's Eugene. That's an explanation for why they would want to see a fat stoner naked on stage.
Starting point is 00:01:23 And now let's get into the show. My guests tonight are all stars of the Stars Channel TV series Party Down, which begins its second season on Friday, April 23rd at 10 p.m. Eastern and Pacific. Please welcome Adam Scott, Ken Marino, and Martin Starr, everybody. Yeah! Oh, shit. Ken Marino's drunk, first of all. So that could be a problem.
Starting point is 00:02:13 That's it. That's it. Thank you very much. Wow. So, we got some... Jesus! Woo! No! Whole show's off the rails. I call Ken Marino drunk, and then I knock all my shit over These are cool little
Starting point is 00:02:28 Little things right Alright Fair enough thank you for being here That was Ken Marino's voice Hello Adam Scott Hi this isn't how I pictured it at all As a fan of the podcast I didn't picture a table at all
Starting point is 00:02:43 Well yeah this is kind of like a panel like you're about to answer questions about Tiger Woods. I would love to. It's like... I have my own theory about him, by the way. Let's hear it. Thousands of women threw themselves at him. Right.
Starting point is 00:02:59 At least thousands. Why isn't he being commended for his restraint? He only slept with 15 of them, give or take. That's a really good point. Yeah. But what were you going to say, Adam, Scott? I was just going to, I had a question about the table. What function does this table serve other than holding four microphones?
Starting point is 00:03:20 Tapas. It's just every time, it's for the tapas parties that they have here at UCB and for all the shows they do here Where they do improvised press conferences And take questions from the audience That's the entire show Martin Starr is here also Hello
Starting point is 00:03:36 Hi Douglas That's what he sounds like And it's great to have you all here Party Down was created by The great Rob Thomas And it's great to have you all here. Party Down was created by the great Rob Thomas. Yeah! Not of Matchbox 20 fame. Oh, never mind. And tons and tons of reefer.
Starting point is 00:03:53 We're talking about the more focused, great TV-creating Rob Thomas. Who did Veronica Mars was his show also. Is Rob Thomas from Matchbox 20? Does he smoke a lot of pot? That's the word on him, yeah. Yeah. I mean, why would Carlos Santana let a white guy sing on a song
Starting point is 00:04:11 unless they were burning a lot of great shit, yeah. It's all making sense now. It's all coming together. That's what I was saying, Veronica Mars was a Rob Thomas show and that was one of my favorite shows. Kristen Bells appeared on Party Down and Coming Back Again at some point this season, correct?
Starting point is 00:04:30 Yeah, she was on the season finale last year, and this year she comes back, I believe, in Episode 7? Sure. She's my girlfriend, but we clearly couldn't get her until Episode 7 because I just kind of talk about her and talk on the phone with her up until the 7th episode. Until she was
Starting point is 00:04:51 available? She's a big movie star. Yeah, she is. I'm not denying that. She's a big movie star. For some reason, Martin is refusing himself from this part of the conversation. You just lean back like, I'm wearing camouflage. This is going to be good.
Starting point is 00:05:09 No one needs to know that I'm here. I didn't even see him there. Martin's here? No, he's here. He's right here. Whoa! Yeah. So for the uninitiated, if there are any, Party Down is about a catering team, group,
Starting point is 00:05:22 company? Either of the three. All of them. Sure. All of that. And have you guys, have any of you actually been caterers in real life? team, group, company? Either of the three. All of that. Have any of you actually been caterers in real life? And how tired of you of that question at Press Things?
Starting point is 00:05:32 Well, we do a lot of Press Things, so we're pretty tired of it. I think this is the second Press Thing we've done. Okay, well now you can prep for the next time. So, have you guys ever actually been caterers? Because that's the question they have to ask Every time you sit down and talk about the show
Starting point is 00:05:48 I don't think any of us actually have No, I was a bartender Close enough I was a mixologist I went to a school where you actually took a class in mixology And you learned all the detailed drinks that nobody orders Yeah, they got lots of them, right? Like a grasshopper. That's a classic.
Starting point is 00:06:08 I love a grasshopper. What's in a grasshopper? I have no idea. I took it when I was 19. It was like a $600 a weekend course. You think they took my money? Yeah, they did. Yeah, they took it. Mixologist? Is that really what you call it?
Starting point is 00:06:24 I had a plaque, yeah. I had like a degree in mixology. What happened to the plaque? Yeah, I was like, oh, I'm going to college, and I'm an actor, so I've got to be a waiter. I'm not going to be a waiter. I'm going to be a bartender. So let me pay this guy $600 to teach me how to fucking mix a grasshopper,
Starting point is 00:06:43 and then I'll know how to do it in college. I'm just going to say something. It sounds like when you were 19, you were a fucking idiot. Sure. Sure, yeah. We really love each other. I think the whole panel agrees on that. Do you still have that plaque?
Starting point is 00:06:59 Wait, who else is here? Oh, shit, Martin's here. Do you still have that plaque? I do. I do. Can you bring it to work if we do a third season? Sure. If we do a third season, I'll bring it to work. So this whole season's in the can, as they say?
Starting point is 00:07:16 Yeah, we finished in November. Oh, okay. How many eps? Ten eps. Thanks for repeating my ridiculous abbreviation. When did it go from eps to eps? Ten eps. Thanks for repeating my ridiculous abbreviation. When did it go from eppies to eps? It was never eppies.
Starting point is 00:07:31 No. That never happened. Omar and Mike really lobbied to change it to eps. And they got their way. They refused to come out of their trailer until we did that. So, Adam Scott, you've been in a ton of movies Too many to name But if I had to pick a favorite
Starting point is 00:07:52 Of all your movie roles I would say that would be the part you played in Tork Oh yeah You were awesome in that Len Maltin only gave it one and a half stars Which is just ridiculous Next time I see Len I'm going to slap him gently. He called it ultra dumb, often laughable.
Starting point is 00:08:11 But didn't you think you were being funny when you were making it? Because I thought you were hilarious. Oh, thanks. I thought we were all being hilarious. Right. It's supposed to be kind of a comedy, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:20 I think it's kind of a unique mix of a studio wanting to make a fast and the furious movie and and then a director wanting to make fun of fast and the furious and then some some actors wanting to be in fast and the furious and then some actors wanting to make fun of fast and the furious because there were like some dudes in the movie that would be like we'd be getting ready to to shoot a scene and they would be doing curls before because they had like sleeveless leather vests on they would be doing curls so that so their muscles are all big for when they're rolling camera oh yeah i was just like what the fuck is this people do that that's crazy i did it before
Starting point is 00:09:04 we came out here no i know i know i know but this is a podcast so it's different feel it jesus yeah he's ripped yeah you were um in my favorite one of my favorite movies i've ever made ken marino uh it's called wet hot american summer i feel like the actor's studio guy. I got so serious there. Wet hot. Yeah, I love that movie. Thanks.
Starting point is 00:09:32 The van, when you crash the van into the tree, that's like one of the best vans crashing into a tree gags I've ever seen. Thank you. In motion picture history. Actually, I was with David Wayne who wrote and directed it the other day and we were laughing about name dropping
Starting point is 00:09:51 about how stupid it is because I'm not not looking away. I'm driving straight. I'm looking where I'm driving. It's like, why am I so surprised that I'm about to drive into a tree? I never look away. So I'm like singing and I'm like, oh, fuck!
Starting point is 00:10:06 It's like as if the tree jumped out, you know? I never, that wasn't the intention. Yeah, it's amazing. It makes me laugh just thinking about it. Yeah, that movie's rad. And Martin Starr, to, you know, continue to spread the love. Martin's here? Yes.
Starting point is 00:10:24 He's right here, He's right here. Camouflage hoodie, callback. Knocked up, you are the dude that had the crazy, couldn't stop growing his facial hair because of a bet or a dare, right? Yeah. Yeah. And my question for you is... There are no wrong answers.
Starting point is 00:10:44 There are no wrong answers. My question for you is, did you enjoy not having to shave, or was that a fucking itchy motherfucker? I already wasn't shaving, so that's how that happened. That was already your thing? It wasn't. We sat down in rehearsals, and that question popped up. Evan had played that with, or had heard of it or played it when he was a kid.
Starting point is 00:11:07 And he was one of the co-producers on it. He played the beard game when he was a kid? Thank you for asking what I was thinking, second chair. That's what he said.

Starting point is 00:16:15 She was great in Hot Tub Time. And Corddry, too, was amazing. I didn't understand. Did her character have some real motivation for being so fascinated with hooking up with John Cusack's character? She was, like, good to go from the first scene. She liked him. And there was never really an explanation. There's that, like, connection, you know, that
Starting point is 00:16:33 un... That I was hired to play a role, so I'm gonna pretend to like this older dude for no reason? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that connection. She was like, excuse me, everybody, I am the coolest yeah. That connection. She was like, she was like, excuse me, everybody, I am the coolest chick in the world. Come here.
Starting point is 00:16:51 That was her part. Yeah, yeah. Well said. Well said. She had to put it out there right from the get-go. But I saw a movie this very afternoon as research for this program called The Vicious Kind,
Starting point is 00:17:04 Vicious Kind Vicious Kind that Adam Scott here stars in and does an amazing job. You saw it? Yeah, I watched it today. Nominated for an Academy Award. Adam was nominated for an Academy Award. He was overlooked for that, Ken. Independent Spirit Award.
Starting point is 00:17:18 No, he did not. He was nominated. True. But should have won. Who'd you lose to that? Jeremy Renner prick? Jeff Bridges. Oh, Jeff Bridges, that asshole.
Starting point is 00:17:31 How come it's something that Jeff Bridges is in can be called an independent movie? Well, I think when they made it, I think when they made Crazy Heart, it was an independent movie, and then it got picked up by... Yeah, but you know what I mean? Once he's on board, movie and then it got picked up by a studio. Once he's on board, he's going to get
Starting point is 00:17:47 picked up. That's how Iron Man got picked up. Really? It was an independent movie? Jeff Bridges is in this? Sold! Is he willing to shave his head? Yeah. Iron Man was a three3 million movie. Shot in like a week.
Starting point is 00:18:09 They made it in Winnipeg. You ever see Fat City? Yeah. John Bridgerton? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was just talking about that. I don't know. I haven't been hanging out with you lately.
Starting point is 00:18:21 Someone was just talking about it. I don't know. Help me out. It's weird how things happen like that Yeah You'll hear about one thing in one place Stacey Keach And you hear about it somewhere else Stacey Keach
Starting point is 00:18:31 Stacey Keach and Jeff Bridges Yeah, yeah John Huston movie Classic Oh, Dan Etheridge was just talking about it It's an awesome movie Who was talking about it? If you haven't seen it
Starting point is 00:18:39 It's a great We're going to solve the mystery for all the listeners That some guy nobody's heard of was talking about Dan of the G producers Party down Oh, okay I mean, it's still a pointless story To get to the end of We're going to solve the mystery for all the listeners that some guy nobody's heard of was talking about. Dan of the G-Producers party down. Oh, okay. I mean, it's still a pointless story to get to the end of, but... I love that guy.
Starting point is 00:18:56 Do you guys ever drive home from the set in your pink ties after a long night and get a lot of weird looks from people driving by? We each stall four of them at the end of the season. That's true. That's a true story. Yeah. each stall four of them at the end of the season. That's true. That's a true story. Yeah. We brought Martin down mostly to verify what Ken and Adam
Starting point is 00:19:12 put out there because they're a couple of liars who like to lie all the time. You know what I just watched yesterday and today was Private Parts which I hadn't seen in a long time. You broke it up? I broke it up over a couple days. It was a good movie which I hadn't seen in a long time. You broke it up? I broke it up over a couple days.
Starting point is 00:19:27 It was a good movie. I hadn't seen it in like 10 years. What did you think of that movie, Doug? Is that Howard Stern? Yeah. Does it hold up? Yeah, it's very good. The only thing I didn't like about it, I thought Giamatti was excellent.
Starting point is 00:19:42 Yeah, he's great. But anyone sits around kind of proud of themselves for calling someone pig vomit, like that's a clever thing to call somebody, is a little weird. Yeah, and you know, some of the comedy bits, whatever, it's
Starting point is 00:19:58 kind of an impressive movie that they chose to make, Howard Stern chose to make a movie about himself, and they actually went and made a good little movie and he's in it and he plays himself which is kind of awesome
Starting point is 00:20:12 no shit I'm yet he's a disc jockey I saw it too he talks on the radio and says offensive things we're at UCB I'm yes ending you yeah no I saw it too He talks on the radio And says offensive things We're at UCB I'm yes ending you
Starting point is 00:20:27 Yeah no I get it I get it For God's sake But that is a solid movie That woman that directed it Betsy Thomas Betty Thomas Hill Street Blues
Starting point is 00:20:37 The audience gets right up your ass Say anything wrong It's Betty Turn around It's Betty Thomas Whatever happened to Sergeant How fucking dare you but she has
Starting point is 00:20:47 made more money than any female director in the history of more than Penny Marshall female director because she directed
Starting point is 00:20:53 Dr. Doolittle and I think she did the squeak wool to one of those she did one of those big hits recently the chipmunk movie yeah yeah
Starting point is 00:21:02 it's weird because private parts and the late shift the late shift also was awesome and then she went and made the shitty little animal movies wait late you wait you didn't like dr. Doolittle with yes yes that late shift the letterman Leno thing. Oh, no, no. With Helen Kushnick. I'm thinking of the movie that... I can't think of one thing or the other thing. Michael Keaton's big breakout movie, Night Shift. See, I always say Gung Ho was the big breakout movie. Michael Keaton's second.
Starting point is 00:21:42 Let's play the Len Maltin game you guys They're really excited about that Is this a common thing? Do you guys always play the Len Maltin game? We try to play it in every episode I think we ran out of time once Once? Yeah What movie?
Starting point is 00:22:01 Ran out of time once Once Johnny Dangerously And you didn't even need Leonard Maltin's book for that Well neither did I What was it? I wasn't listening to you
Starting point is 00:22:11 I was listening to the guy In Star Wars Like awesome cool thing And he's got like Some sort of edible Wristband on He's got two bananas In his hand
Starting point is 00:22:19 This guy's fucking awesome Are you on ecstasy? He's got his pants In cups Like cuffed up twice I think he might be on ecstasy? He's got his pants in cups, like cupped up twice. I think he might be on ecstasy. His one shoelace is undone. He's got sunglasses on.
Starting point is 00:22:32 It couldn't be darker in here. And he's got a hat on that's got some sort of, I don't know what it is. It's like a tribal. A can of sugar-free Red Bull. And it looks like it's never been worn. Turn around. Is there a tag? From South Dakota.
Starting point is 00:22:44 Ah. Well, there you go. All there a tag? From South Dakota. Ah! Well, there you go. It's from South Dakota. We solved that riddle. He's got a Red Bull, a couple bananas, it's dark, and he's wearing sunglasses. Hit it. Red Bull. Blues Brothers.
Starting point is 00:22:57 Red Bull and two bananas. What's that? What's that that you're showing us? What is that? What's the eye test that we're doing right now? I love it. They are going to make a sequel to Private Parts?
Starting point is 00:23:15 Oh, well. That's neither here nor there. He was trying to tell us telepathically earlier that we should talk about the need for a Private Parts sequel. Because no one knows what's happened to Howard Stern's story since the end of the movie. Like, what happened to that guy? Let's get an update.
Starting point is 00:23:32 I have an idea. Let's talk about things that... Oh! Oh, for a cock's sake. That's horrible. There were a couple of people nodding off, so I spilled water on them. That's just because you told Ken he was drunk at the top of the show.
Starting point is 00:23:48 Payback. I thought he was doing a drunk thing, but it turns out he's just having a couple beers. Let's play the Len Moulton game. Do you like the app? The Len Moulton app? It's probably better than carrying the book around, but do you find the app to actually
Starting point is 00:24:03 save time and everything, or is it less fun than flipping through a book? I like it because the book, the print is really small. This is a little bigger and illuminated. And also, I just like that I can set aside the movies. I used to have to
Starting point is 00:24:20 put post-it notes inside the book for every page, and this just makes it a little easier. Do you have a theme song for this part of the show? No. No, I just say, let's play the Leonard Maltin game. And then... That could happen. Or someone could talk to a guy about his bananas for ten minutes.
Starting point is 00:24:38 Like, you don't know which way it's going to go when I say it's time for the Leonard Maltin game. That's true. You said once, right? Once you didn't make it to the going for two. The squeak will. Can you overdose on potassium? I think so.
Starting point is 00:24:55 We're going to find out. Yep. ODP. I'm down with it. You know me. Okay. This is the topic in honor of Party Down, premiering second season on Starz on April 23rd.
Starting point is 00:25:17 With a Z. The category is all movies that are currently playing on Starz. Oh. Ah. Yeah. We'll see how well you know your network. Ah. Which would be not at all. Why would you be, like, scouring the guide,
Starting point is 00:25:30 finding out what movies are playing on Starz? Who has Starz? We've got some folks with Starz, so please don't yell out the answers. Because I'm sure you have no other cable channels and have memorized their schedule. We'll start here on this end of the table with Martin,
Starting point is 00:25:49 and we'll let you pick the year so you get to kind of guide this thing. Do you want a movie from 2000, 95, or 2009? 1974. I don't have any 74s. 2009, 95, or 2000? I didn't know this was multiple choice.
Starting point is 00:26:07 Is the whole thing multiple choice? It might help you. What? If you pick a year that's like a more memorable year for you. What are my options? 2000, 95, or 2009? 2009. That would be like a really recent movie.
Starting point is 00:26:23 I love it. Fairly recent. I still won't know it. Vicious Kind. Is it the Vicious Kind? No, it's not on Starz. This movie was made in 2009 and it's on Starz right now. Yeah, that's a reasonable turnaround.
Starting point is 00:26:37 Yeah, no, totally. Leonard Maltin gives this two stars and I'll tell you the genre it's kind of like a drama crime thriller and I'll give you one clue about it that something from Mel says about it
Starting point is 00:26:56 this sort of version of Fatal Attraction good clue right? the hand that rocks the cradle. That's not how you play the game. No, that's skipping way ahead. Saving us a lot of time. How many names do you think you can get it in?
Starting point is 00:27:20 How many names are there? Seven. He says he can name in seven. Adam, can you name it in less names? I think he can name in seven? Adam, can you name it in less names? I think I can name it in Three names Do I get to go again? It'll come back around to you, Ken It won't come back around
Starting point is 00:27:36 Three names? No You're going to tell Adam to name that movie? Name that movie Alright, Adam I have a good feeling you could do it because of your reaction when you heard it's 2009
Starting point is 00:27:47 and it's a version of Fatal Attraction, but maybe you need the names. Matthew Humphreys. Wow. Shit. Christine Lottie. Mmm, delicious.
Starting point is 00:28:01 Another good one. I would have had it by now. And your third name is Jerry O'Connell. That would be Obsessed. Obsessed is correct. Nicely played, Adam Scott. I have that on my Netflix queue. Oh, you do?
Starting point is 00:28:16 Yeah, yeah. I haven't gotten around to it yet. That queue gets fucking long. Yeah, yeah, it's a big, long queue. You start looking at it going, I gotta take some shit off my queue. It becomes like you get, it gets weird. I'm like, oh, this, hey, this shitty movie I haven't seen.
Starting point is 00:28:28 Let me put that on my queue. Yeah. And then I look at the poster, I'm like, well, no. But now you also have the instant queue, which is another like 73 movies. That's the one, that's the one I'm talking about. That's the one, that's the shit. Oh, you don't even pay attention to the DVD queue anymore? No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:28:44 I just go to the instant queue because it's getting better and better. Yeah, Jesus. Anyway. The state of things. I can't believe what's happened to the world. Let's start with Martin again. I like when he picks the year.
Starting point is 00:29:03 You like that part? Yeah, 2000. It's a fun banter we have. Here with Martin again. I like when he picks the year. You like that part? Yeah, 2000. It's a fun banter we have. Here we go again. 2000, 1995, or 2001. Wait, we're not playing for people? This is just between he and I. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:29:16 No, Adam's right, actually. I always forget to get players for you guys to play for. Oh, shit. Especially now that you already have a point, Adam. That means this gentleman knows who to pick. Who would you like to be? What's your name? Matt.
Starting point is 00:29:29 And who would you like to play for you? Adam. Smart man. I think you kind of set him up so he would have felt stupid if he hadn't have picked Adam. Matt. Or he would have been like a genius
Starting point is 00:29:40 if he picked one of you guys and then you pulled it out. Then everybody would have went insane. Well, Adam knows way more about movies than we do. Matt, he does? You probably read the article in Backstage Magazine that Adam is a... He's a movie buff.
Starting point is 00:29:53 Yeah. It's not just Avatar that's getting him out of the house. I left one of them up there in the back. Someone got lucky. Maybe they'll ask you to sign it later. one of them up there in the back. Someone got lucky. Maybe they'll ask you to sign it later. What's your name, young lady?
Starting point is 00:30:10 Colleen. Colleen, which one of these other two solid players would you like on your behalf? You don't want to pick me. I'm just going to tell you. He's talking you out of it. I say pick him anyway. Oh, shit.
Starting point is 00:30:25 Come on, Adam's going to win. This is all a waste of time. That's true. And what's your... What's your name? That's Ryan. Who are you going to pick? So Ken's going to play for you, Ryan.
Starting point is 00:30:34 So, yeah. Hey, Matt, you're dead to me. Matt's going to... Mark, isn't it? Matt. Matt. Matt's going to... Matt's going to win a bag full of things.
Starting point is 00:30:46 Pot? No, I don't give away pot, but that's a good idea. All right, so did you pick a year? Huh? What? 2095 or 2001? 2001. All right.
Starting point is 00:31:00 Oh, yeah. Were you born in 2001? Len gives this a generous three stars, three star rating. It's from 2001, and the genre is drama. It's a drama. Good dramatic movie. Good dramatic movie right after 9-11. It's a Pulitzer Prize winning novel.
Starting point is 00:31:19 This movie brings a Pulitzer Prize winning novel to life. That's the clue. And there are 12 names. Martin Starr, start the bidding. Can you start at the top of the list as opposed to the bottom? No, sir. Just no switcheroonies. Absolutely not.
Starting point is 00:31:37 No flippy floppies. But you can say 12 names. I bet you'd get it in 12 names maybe. Fucking A, 12 names. 12 names. Here we go. I'm sorry. Now I just feel guilty for two people. I don't know shit about movies.
Starting point is 00:31:50 I'll go six names. Alright. You could have just said 11. Two names. Ken Marino can get it in two names. So Martin Starr, to win the point, all you have to do is say, name that movie. Ken Marino. I get to win a point? I think you'll win. Ken Marino, name that movie.
Starting point is 00:32:06 Because that's tough. Did I say his name right, though? Do I have to say his name right? No, if he doesn't get it, do we get another shot at it? No, Martin gets the point. Fuck yeah. It's set up so people who aren't good at it can still win points. Two names.
Starting point is 00:32:21 There we go. Bam. This is how we're going to do it. The names are Mark Lawrence. Mark is spelled with a C. I know, I. There we go. Bam. This is how we're going to do it. The names are Mark Lawrence. Mark is spelled with a C. I know, I know, I know. Okay. And...
Starting point is 00:32:37 And then the next name is Janetta Arnetta. Notebook. The notebook. Notebook is incorrect. He's on his feet, though. He's on his feet. Very proud of his incorrect answer. Sometimes it's about getting the crowd on your side.
Starting point is 00:32:54 It's not about winning. It's about being the favorite. Ken, you got it wrong. You got it wrong. Oh. Oh. I'll read the rest of the names so that Adam Scott can impress everybody by jumping in with the answer. Larry Pine, Jason Bear, Gordon... The Hours?
Starting point is 00:33:12 No. Reece E. Fonz, Scott Glenn, Pete Possilthwaite... Jesus. Kate Blanchett, Judy Dench, Julianne Moore... Oh, The Shipping News? And Kevin Spacey. That's right. He looks at me like, The Shipping News?
Starting point is 00:33:22 Dan Moore and Kevin Spacey. That's right. He looks at me like, the shipping news? Could it be that movie that most people in this room have never seen or cared for if they did? Can you check and make sure it's not the notebook? Let me double check. A man beaten down by life
Starting point is 00:33:37 is brought by circumstance to his ancestral home of Newfoundland. Did the notebook take place in Newfoundland? Yes. I love that you thought the notebook take place in Newfoundland? Yes. Ryan Gosling was born in Newfoundland. I love that you thought the notebook won a Pulitzer. I didn't even hear that part.
Starting point is 00:33:51 I just heard it was based on a book. But I wouldn't know any either way. It's very possible that I would have thought that. Alright, so Martin gets the point and we start the... Fuck yeah. That's absurd that Martin I would have thought that. It's true. All right, so Martin gets the point, and we start the... Fuck yeah. That's absurd that Martin got a point.
Starting point is 00:34:10 You need to figure out the rules of the game. That's the start of the fun of the game. The best player doesn't always win. Pick a fight with the game, bro. It's not me. It's the game. Maybe I will. Don't hate the player.
Starting point is 00:34:19 Hate the game. Maybe I will. Fight that game. Punch the Leonard Moulton game in the face. Pick between these years, Adam. 2000, 95, or 2008? 95. I'm going to go 95.
Starting point is 00:34:34 Nice. One person clap for that. It's a person I went to see Greenberg with. Two and a half stars. Oh. My life's in turnaround. How do you do it? No, that's not it. How do you do it, Leonard Maltin? Two and a half stars Oh My life's in turnaround How do you do it No that's not it
Starting point is 00:34:45 How do you How do you do it Len Malton Two and a half stars That's ridiculous This is three and a half At best I mean
Starting point is 00:34:53 At least It's a crime mystery thriller And here's something That Len says about it The film is oozing With atmosphere And period detail Yeah
Starting point is 00:35:04 Thank God you said period detail. That sounds horrible. No, it's a good thing I said with atmosphere and. Period. Because if it was just the film is oozing period detail, then you'd all just pound your buzzers and yell Carrie. All right. There are ten names
Starting point is 00:35:29 Start the bidding with Adam Scott You only get one shot At saying the amount of names No the bidding can go all the way Until somebody next to you says name that movie I'll start it At five names Yeah I like that Bold move Ken Marino Next to you says name that movie. I'll start it at five names.
Starting point is 00:35:45 Yeah, I like that. Bold move. Ken Marino? Oh, Jesus. Name that movie. He says name that movie. You're going to let him take the whole thing down right here and now. I did it.
Starting point is 00:36:00 Do you want to? Oh, wow. Marino's on his feet. Do you want a shot at it? He's itching his elbows. Does Martin want a shot at it? He's itching his elbows. Does Martin want a shot at it? No. Name that movie. He doesn't get a shot at it.
Starting point is 00:36:10 All right. Ken thinks he has a winning formula here. Now I know how it works. I'm going to get the goddamn point. I'm looking at the names. I'll be very impressed if you get this, Adam. Okay. Let's hear it.
Starting point is 00:36:22 All right. Here we go. Now I'm just standing. Jernard Burks was in this movie. The best. Jernard Burks, okay. The best. Lisa Nicole Carson.
Starting point is 00:36:35 Lisa Nicole Carson, okay. Do you know who she is? Nope. She's that big booby lady on Ally McBeal, that's right. Okay. Albert Hall was in this movie. Mel Winkler. The great Mel W was in this movie. Mel Winkler. The great Mel Winkler.
Starting point is 00:36:47 The great Mel Winkler, yeah. And then Terry Kinney is your fifth name. L.A. Confidential? Oh, that's a great guess. God damn it. But it's wrong. God damn it.
Starting point is 00:36:57 It's Devil in the Blue Dress. Whoa! Yeah, Denzel Washington in L.A. instead of Russell Crowe in LA That's right So that was a good guess The only thing I remember
Starting point is 00:37:08 About that movie Is when he's having sex With that woman And she's like You're hitting my spot You're hitting my spot You're hitting my spot Now that means
Starting point is 00:37:18 Are you going over To my place right Sort of And Don Cheadle Was in that movie As a character named Mouse and he wasn't he didn't get nominated for sporting actor but he should have I thought yeah that was like his breakout yeah yeah he was I'm so mad that I didn't get that I'm pissed at you don't beat yourself up it's a tied match the next person to get a point Marino's up out of his seat again he likes to go
Starting point is 00:37:42 over and high-five the guy he's playing for. Well, I was the last guy picked. I feel like the last guy on the kickball team in elementary school. Shut the fuck up. Fair enough. I hope we get to do another season. I'll have you guys back on. That's not a problem. I'll have you on in my next season
Starting point is 00:38:07 The former stars of stars Alright It's a great show by the way So watch it And that Ryan Hansen guy is really funny He was on Veronica Mars And I like him Alright enough
Starting point is 00:38:24 Let's see So we'll start with Martin down here Veronica Mars, and I like him. All right, enough. Let's see. So we'll start with Martin down here on my end, and you get to pick a year, 2000 or 2008. Just the two choices? Yeah. Yeah, we're getting down to it. Ken, what are you doing? We don't need many more movies,
Starting point is 00:38:41 because this next point's going to decide it. Yep. What did he just do? He was just checking the door. How about I pick the year? Yeah, I think it's Ken's. Martin could let you pick the year if you want. I would if...
Starting point is 00:38:54 He gave a shit about me. I would have said that, but he said it for me. Which year do you think Ken doesn't want, 2000 or 2008? I think he's better off than I am at either year. I'm going to say 2008. Bam. That'll get you. Okay. Pretty reasonable
Starting point is 00:39:14 three and a half stars. I might go four. One of my favorite movies of 2008. I wish I knew you better. Yeah, right? You could get in my head. Minimalist filmmaking at its best What do you think of that? Eraserhead
Starting point is 00:39:30 2008 Eraserhead 2 For genre it says romance and crime Let me double check Yeah, I guess so I don't know about crime Or romance What the fuck?
Starting point is 00:39:46 We could just call it a drama. How old is Malton now? It would be a perfectly suitable drama. And there are seven names. We start the bidding with Martin. 2008. You can bid seven names. Romance and crime, but not really romance and crime.
Starting point is 00:40:01 How many names, Martin? Three and a half stores. You don't really care that much, do you? Oh, whether... Good. That poor girl. Seven names, that's all. The things in this bag are going to help pay her rent.
Starting point is 00:40:16 I can't imagine what's in that bag. I don't want to think about it, though. So you want to go seven names, probably? Yeah. Okay. Seven names. 2,008. I to go seven names probably probably yeah okay seven names 2008 I'll go six names Wow fucking risky bro name that show
Starting point is 00:40:41 Wow somebody's not from around here That calls movies shows Alright Alright let's do it You might not be able to get this I don't know We'll see Well uh Well Ken is folding up his clothes
Starting point is 00:40:59 Like George Clooney style Did you just come from First class on a plane Is that why you had the Nice jacket and tie First class on a plane Okay here's your 16th
Starting point is 00:41:15 That's where you wear That's where you wear Your good suits That's where George Clooney did that movie Alright Richard Kind was in this movie Seventh Build.
Starting point is 00:41:26 Not to be confused with Vicious Kind. Oh, here we go. Ken's got another beer. I just called up JetBlue. Yeah? And they don't have first class, so now I don't know what the hell I'm going to do when I'm going back to...
Starting point is 00:41:40 That's what you dress up for? Yeah. I dress up for first class on a plane. Oh, you know, you should get a Southwest flight then for first class. Southwest is festival seating. It doesn't have any... It doesn't have any... God damn, I hate the standing room section.
Starting point is 00:41:57 There's always some hippie girl dancing around. Michael Kumpsty. Marion Seldes Ham Asbas Ham Abas This is a foreign name Is this a Bollywood flick? Dana Greer
Starting point is 00:42:16 Shit Haas Scheiman Who I think is on He plays on Don't give him any hints for fuck's sake, man. I think that's that guy. I might be wrong. Anyway, those are the six names
Starting point is 00:42:32 that you have. I'll give you the clue again. Is it The Visitor? That's correct. Oh, Adam Scott. Immediately on the... You're going up in the brackets to come back and compete against the likes of Patton Oswalt,
Starting point is 00:42:54 Dana Gould, Jerry O'Connell. Yes, the Jerry O'Connell. Those are all top-scoring players. Now wait, who was on just a couple weeks ago who was getting them with no names? Anthony Jeselnik is the all-time champion, so he's who you're going to have to try to take down. Jeselnik. Jeselnik, yes.
Starting point is 00:43:11 I thought I could get obsessed with no names, but I thought I would look like too much of an asshole if I said that, and then got it wrong. I still ended up looking like an asshole, though. You were terrific. I think you were totally good. You played the game fairly. You didn't have to stand up and move around and fold clothes. You just sat there, focused
Starting point is 00:43:32 and intense. I could actually see you, but instead of wearing camouflage, that's rude to the host. The Visitor, terrific movie. My favorite movie of that year. That's why I say four stars and one of the best of that year. I would say the best. What was better than of that year That's why I say four stars And one of the best of that year Yeah I would say the best What was better than that
Starting point is 00:43:47 That year The Dark Knight But Come on Boo Oh come on It's an opinion Fuck off
Starting point is 00:43:55 Jesus Christ Yeah Martin's got my back But No people like to That didn't work out at all About these things No that was good
Starting point is 00:44:02 You put them in their place People are really opinionated About movies They might never boo again. So you don't think The Dark Knight was overrated? Just a little? You know, let's face it. Over time, I'm going to love it less and less.
Starting point is 00:44:15 But at the time, it just really hit the spot for me. Yeah. Oh, you're hitting my spot. You're hitting my spot. You're hitting my spot. Call back. What about the end of The Dark Knight when they did the... Okay, spoilers, everybody.
Starting point is 00:44:33 Spoiler alert. What's the Michael Douglas, Demi Moore movie with the Michael Crichton Disclosure? What about the Disclosure digital where they're seeing through walls and with sonar, they can see everything?
Starting point is 00:44:47 Yeah, yeah, that wasn't my favorite part. Why did you? Keep talking amongst yourselves. What the hell's going on? You know, you knew The Visitor because you worked with Richard Jenkins on Step Brothers. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Step Brothers.
Starting point is 00:45:02 How about that? Yeah, Richard Jenkins was incredible, wasn't he? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Step Brothers. How about that? Yeah, Richard Jenkins was incredible, wasn't he? Yeah, yeah. He was so good. He was unbelievable in that movie. He's incredible in everything, though. He's great. Yeah, flirting with disaster.
Starting point is 00:45:14 I just watched him in... Oh, he's awesome in Flirting with Disaster. I just watched him in Rumor Has It. Oh. Now, let me ask you this. Wait a second. Did you watch the whole thing? I watched the whole thing.
Starting point is 00:45:24 Because that movie is so unbelievably sticky. What the hell? What happened? How could that happen? I never saw it. What happened? I don't know. Well, here's a question.
Starting point is 00:45:31 What happened with Rob Reiner? Because he did some great, great movies. With each movie he makes, he makes a movie worse than the last. And he's made some shit lately. What happened? And it keeps getting worse. I don't know. He's got premature Gary Marshall disease or something.
Starting point is 00:45:46 But he made Spinal Tap. He made amazing movies. Some of the great... What? Princess Bride. Princess Bride. He made great, great movies. The Sure Thing was good.
Starting point is 00:45:58 Stand By Me. Holy shit. Stand By Me was great. But then after that... No, when Harry and Sally is fucking lost. When Harry and Sally, but like North.
Starting point is 00:46:04 I think North is when it all went south. Yeah. What the hell happened? Alright, so you win my friend Matt. You win a two-trunk to tweet t-shirt available at donkeytees.com. You win a
Starting point is 00:46:19 bottle of Spill It Cleanup Spill Clean from the good people of Formula 420. Wait, what the fuck is that? Wait, wait, wait. What is that? It's the stuff if you spill something It's like Goo Gone.
Starting point is 00:46:34 It'll clean it up. But why is it called Formula 420? It doesn't work for sperm. It works for bong water. It's for bong water. Goo Gone is not for sperm? Well, I guess it could be. I never heard of it until you said it.
Starting point is 00:46:47 And it sounds dirty and racist. And then you get a copy of Doug Benson, Unbalanced Load, that's available on Comedy Central Records. And this was given to me by someone who knew that I was passionate about Gerard Butler. But I want to pay that forward. This was given to me at a show in Portland this last weekend at the Aladdin Theater. Somebody
Starting point is 00:47:10 gave me a Gerard Butler I'm a fan license plate frame. And I want you to have it, Matt. Wow. A mutual friend of a few of ours, I don't know if Martin knows him, but Tall John Schrader, as a joke,
Starting point is 00:47:26 will put a license plate frame on his friend's cars without telling them, and they drive around for a few days. So you could do that with this. Put it on some dude's car, and he'll get funny looks from people all day long going, why are you so into Gerard Butler? That's great. When John did it to me, he put a been there, done that
Starting point is 00:47:43 on the back of my car. And I noticed it right away, because I hadn't been there yet. But you will eventually do it. I will do that, yeah. I'm just wondering if the license plate is just saying, Gerard Butler, I'm a fan. Or if it's saying, Gerard Butler, I'm a fan. No, I think that's it. I think that she wanted me To pull in front of him
Starting point is 00:48:05 In traffic Right And then him like Pull over I want to meet you So it's like actively It's actively addressing Gerard Butler
Starting point is 00:48:13 That's so specific Yeah She's going to be mad at me For regifting it But I really There's no way It's ending up on my car And I don't want to
