Doug Leeds, can you help us train him in TV seats? We have 50 of us, and Bob from Hamilton is team. And still, I want, I really want to sing this. Doug Loves Movies. Hey everybody My name is Doug And I love movies That was Motion City Soundtrack

Doing a cover of the Hard and Firm theme And Motion City Soundtrack Is currently on the Warped Tour So check them out there And drummer Tony Thaxton Sent me a tweet or a text Or something saying that A kid at the Warped Tour

went up to him and asked him to play the Leonard Maltin game with him. And he was like, all right. And the kid whips his dick out, so he clearly doesn't even... Calls his penis Len Maltin? I don't know what happened. I don't know if he actually played with the kid or not,

but that's still a cute story. I don't know how happened. I don't know if he actually played with the kid or not, but that's still a cute story. I don't know how old the kid was either. I would kind of hope it's not like an eight-year-old. I love Douglas movies. It says dirty things. It's July 6, 2010, and we're taping in front of a live audience at the UCB Theater in Los Angeles.

Let's go to UCBTheater.com for more info about the UCB Theater, both here and in New York. Now, follow me on Twitter to play occasional either Doug-centered movie trivia games, like yesterday I did, what are my three favorite sylvester salone movies and the first person to guess them all correctly you know all correctly in the same tweet uh won a prize and the answer was rocky first blood and bananas because he has a scene where he tries to rob uh he's subway thug number one in woody allen's bananas that's i have to i dare say that's my favorite no actually rocky's probably better than bananas they're both good first blood i don't even know if that holds up but looking at the list of stallone movies because i was like it's his birthday i'll do a question

about him and then i looked at the list of movies and man, has he been in some shitty movies. And for a long time. Like, he's made a lot of shitty movies. And people kept guessing, like, everybody's got their favorite Stallone movies that aren't my favorite. Everyone's like, what do you mean not Tango and Cash? I'll tell you what I mean.

That sucks and sucks, Tango and Cash. And I like Cash better than Tango, I think. I don't know which was which uh does anybody know which one was still on his cash and i like tango i like kurt russell i've always liked kurt russell a lot more than the celestial alone sorry i don't know who i'm apologizing to sorry for that two rich persons that don't give a shit what i think so the winner of that contest was a fellow whose name on twitter is at nuke the whales so complain to him if you don't approve of that twitter handle nuke and uke the whales uh he won

by guessing the first the three favorite Stallone movies. Then it turns out some other, he was the one, he guessed first, but then I thought some other guy guessed first, because the answers come in so fast, I can't keep track of it. It's a stupid game, who cares? But I said to him, what do you want your prize to be? And he said, could you call Adam Sandler a shithead on the podcast? First of all, I guess I just did,

but secondly, no. If you win one of the games here live, I'll say anybody you say, but then it's fairly implicit. It's explicit. It's just right there for everybody to see that I don't necessarily mean it. I'm just repeating what somebody said. I guess I could say that about Nuke the Whales.

He thinks Adam's a shithead, but I think Adam's a nice man. And I'm getting more and more requests to play games at my live shows, my stand-up comedy shows, and I just want everybody listening to know, and people that write to me on Twitter and ask me to do it,

that there's a lot of people that go to a comedy club and they're what are we doing to do tonight oh let's go down to zany's who's there some guy from vh1 all right and they go and so they're not podcast listeners and the lennarmall game sounds like it just sounds insane to people who don't know you know who aren't familiar with uh how it works you know i mean And also, like, people that don't like this sort of thing hate it, you know? Like, because it's like, I don't know any of the answers, so it's stupid. You know, that's like their...

I don't know why I said that like how Graham Elwood talks, but it is how people react. When people go, oh, I hate trivia. Like, it's like, yeah, you've got really important shit you're remembering. You don't have room for trivia because you know a lot about mascara.

I could be talking to a woman or a dude in that. Don't think. I could be talking to that guy who played the mayor in the Batman movie. Nestor Carbonell. Okay, so my point is that if you want to play games from the show at my live shows, we just need a lot of you there in the audience to overwhelm. When I say, who listens to I Love Movies, everyone go nuts,

and then that'll be like an excuse to play the game because it's by overwhelming demand. And it happened once already in Oklahoma City. The crowd there wanted to play some games and we did and it was a lot of fun. Okay. Twilight Eclipse and The Last Airbender are the top two movies in the country right now.

I haven't seen either, but I will be sleeping through both of them in about four months on a plane. What I have found time to do, strangely enough, is watch some television. And I have been watching the last two weeks of the semifinals on Last Comic Standing. Have you guys been watching Last Comic Standing this season? All right.

watching Last Comic Standing this season. All right. So my guests tonight are three people who in the arbitrary world of the show didn't move into the top ten over the last two episodes, even though I think they absolutely deserve to. And that's why I wanted to bring them out here tonight and have some fun on the podcast. Please welcome Chip Pope,

Taylor Williamson, and Fortune Feimster to Doug Loves Movies. Here they come. Please welcome Chip Pope, Taylor Williamson, and Fortune Feimster to Doug Loves Movies. Here they come. Waving to the crowd, knocking chairs over. Wearing clothes that go together very nicely.

Taylor, what did I say backstage? Speak into the microphone. The first thing you said when you came out here, not into the microphone. No, your microphone. There you go. The people listening don't get why that was almost funny. Because I was putting my mouth towards his microphone

by his lips. The people listening miss a lot of the almost funny stuff because the audience that's here doesn't laugh at it so when they're listening at the home they're like i don't know if something almost funny just happened or not because they're not laughing but that's probably because it was just almost funny that's why we're very complicated that's why you're not in the top 10 don't say that i'm just kidding don't be self-deprecating about it because uh some of the people here are watching, and first of all, Fortune, I want to say to you,

you're not wearing a vest. I know. You've got to wear the vest. People are going to start yelling at you, where's the fucking vest? Because she had an awesome joke on the show where she likes ladies, first of all. Uh-oh.

And second of all, I don't want to ruin your joke, but I love it so much. The dude was hitting on her and she's like, hey man, I'm wearing a vest as a way of saying Yeah,

you do it better than I do. You're not, you're not, no I don't. You're really, your delivery's hilarious as Greg Giraldo said to you in 57 other comics.

They're very, all of the criticisms, like when someone got criticized it was like ouch because they were pretty nice to everybody like especially giraldo was always like he ended everything with very funny or a great job or a very funny great job i like when natasha just gives up you know and does that how do you think you did yeah yeah she's totally stole that from american idol judges that don't know what to say. When they're trying to formulate, they're like,

well, how did you think it went? What do you think? So they have a few seconds to see if they have any ideas about the criticism they should be giving. You've got an inside track on that. How do you think? I wish more school was like that. How do you think you did on the test?

Aced it. Well, actually, no, you asked me, and now you got your answer, so that's what we're going to test. Aced it. Well, actually, no, you asked me, and now you got your answer, so that's what we're going to stick with. So, yeah, wear a vest. Okay, and then Chip. The end. Moving on to Chip.

I've been a fan of Chip since Austin Stories on the MTV channel. Thanks. Back when. Guys, hold your applause. That was almost like, could you be blamed in a way for MTV stopping showing videos? Was that the turning point? No, no, no.

When House of Stories came on? Or Obivious and Butthead World was already on, right? Yeah, yeah. But they showed videos. We could be blamed for ending half-hour sitcoms on MTV for a while. Yeah, until it came up with the great premise of a 14-year-old with a giant cock. Yeah.

Wow, what a fascinating show that must be for people that are going to be incarcerated for watching it. But it's not about a guy with a giant cock. It's about heart, guys. Just like Hong. Exactly like Hong. Hey, wait. Just go with what you have. It's about a guy with a giant like Hong. Exactly like Hong. Hey, wait. Just go with what you have.

It's about a guy with a giant cock. No, that's too interesting. What it's about is the economy. Where the fuck would you... This is like when Armageddon and Deep Impact came out in the same summer. Like sometimes just ideas are just out there and suddenly it was time for big cocks. Exactly. Like let's have multiple big cock shows.

It took a long time for an executive with a big cock to get into power, I guess. Hey, wait a second. I've been sitting on this show idea literally the whole time. Move this around. If you only could see this at home, it's... Now, Chip, if you had continued on in the contest, would you have busted out your R-Romance character that you have an album?

I don't know. It's probably for limited audiences. It's even for a limited audience when I do it for a limited audience. It might have been fun if they did like, now you guys have to do a charity car wash. Were there going to be any competitions like that this year?

Nah. Taylor hits that one out of the park. wash or you know where they're gonna be any competitions like that this year no Taylor hits that one out of the park no almost funny that time buddy one word funny this was three words not funny the three words explanation not funny also and an extra all right how great would it be if you just got up and left right now? Do you validate? So Chip, is your record

Aromance still available on AST Records? Sure, yeah. It's a CD though. Yeah, I went old school with it. It's on iTunes.

It's not on vinyl? Your long playing vinyl yeah yeah is your ep and but it's uh it's music though right yeah it's music sketches and things it's uh it's our romance is a fake uh 80s singer and he's uh from a small town in england and he had the number one song in uh 1982 for Day. Because England has a lot of turnover. So it was like during that time, you know, not a funny explanation, but a very funny character. He's a one day wonder? What's the song called? You know, failure. I think that one was called Skyscraper.

Just when skyscrapers were new and made of glass and shiny and everything was super modern. If you miss the 80s you miss the best uh time in civilization guys so all right so check that record out and taylor hi um when you told the audience uh in your performance in the semi-finals that you said to the audience that they're awkward like you guys are really awkward or something like that what was going on there? Is that something that you say a lot in your act or was that particular crowd awkward? Well, for the people who have never seen me do that

on another TV show, that was... Because you did? Does it matter? It's new to them. Yeah, but that's what I'm saying. I just want to know if that's something... I couldn't tell if that's something you say

or if that was just something you thought of in the moment. Like I'll tell these 500 people at this big TV competition that they are awkward. I'm performing for the audience, not for my grandma who says, why do you do the same jokes you did before? Yes, it's a thing. I get it. It's a thing. It gets awkward and I go, you guys are awkward.

And then they laugh. Do you think they edited it weird? Like, it wasn't that awkward before you said it? Like, I think you got a big laugh on something, and then you went, you guys are awkward. I'm really talented. They're like, why are they laughing at your joke, Taylor? I don't know what happened. Did something go wrong?

Did they juice it up a little bit? Did you sit down? I think they juiced it down. They cut out laughter. They cut out one of my jokes and they put the... How does that joke go? The joke where they cut out? Yeah.

Or they cut it out of your brain? They cut it out. Like they're making you never say it? They use scissors and then they how's it go they cut my hair first and then i could do i knew you had a special cut going there it's something witty i'll take a picture for people look at on twitter to see what i was talking about really will they be my twitter friends they might what's your twitter handle taylor comedy because people think all your jokes are gonna be about buttons and shit

oh no and I spelled my name wrong also or all your jokes are about Rod Taylor I have the only I don't know movie reference I could think of so what was the joke they cut well what happens I said I saw I was talking to my girlfriend, and then that got the biggest laugh of my entire set. For some reason, I'm not sure why, and that's not the laughy part, you know? You're not supposed to laugh there. And then I tell a joke, and then I say, should I tell the joke? Should I do that now?

Yeah, I didn't just ask you to tell the joke before the joke that didn't get on the show. Hey, could you do the whole set and leave out the part I'm interested in? I don't want to take up too much time here. I know we... Well, that's why they cut the joke, apparently. It's a massive joke you just busted out in the middle of your set. So here's what happened. Yeah, how'd it go?

So I said, so I was talking to my girlfriend. Right, and a big laugh. Right. Yeah. And she... That's the laughy part. Which I say for another joke, I say that's not the laughy part, but I couldn't do that joke because this is very... Yeah, break it down. I'm an artist.

Let's hear about everything. Basically. Who likes to take his time? So I said, so I talked to my girlfriend and she decided next year for Lent she's going to give up sex. So I decided next year for Lent I'm going to give up my girlfriend.

And then, yeah, thanks. And then I say, because it's like a jokey, stupid joke on purpose, but it works for normal audiences who aren't as hip as you folks. And then I go, that's not really true.

I don't have a girlfriend. Which, again, is funny in context when you tell the joke. I don't care what you people think of me, okay? I'm performing for the audiences who are downloading this. You're like the Guy Torrey of awkward white comics because Guy Torrey told Natasha

last night was it last night? he told her that when she was criticizing his act he goes you don't buy tickets to my shows to a little white girl in LA

and he's a black comic. Is this story not translating right? No, that's right. That story was worse than my joke. I need to be wearing a flamboyant hat. That's a good story. I'm stumped. I don't know where to go next.

This is going well, right? This is awesome. Cool. Fortune, have you been in the cinema lately? What with all this Last Comic Standing nonsense going on? I haven't been as much. It's hard to concentrate, right? Yeah, I've been dying to see Karate Kid.

Who hasn't? No one? Nobody. Yeah, I could sit here and just bag on everything. see Karate Kid. Who hasn't? No one? Nobody? You know, I could sit here and just bag on everything. This crowd probably hasn't even seen Toy Story 3, and those that did are like, it's alright.

It's okay. It was great. See, Chip knows what's real. Chip's a true movie fan. A real tear jerker. Not a cynic No it does make you cry behind those glasses Which is good And not just because Tim Allen

Is getting 40 million dollars But the story is very sad too See that's like It makes me not want to go It's like when WALL-E came out And people were like The first part there's no talking for a long time. I was like,

oh, I don't go to things where there's no talking for a long time. I like talking. I like some sort of commentary about what's happening. That's what WALL-E should have been released with the director commentary just in the movie when it first came out to go, yeah, we thought

he might be kind of bored by this part but it really sets up that he's isolated it's like fucking castaway with tom hanks i you know except for when he's busting his tooth out with a bottom of a skate i was bored to death oh yeah yeah the only talk is like little kids going like what's happening you know like wally like when i was a kid we went to see uh king kong i'm not that old we didn't see the king kong remake in the 70s with jeff bridges yeah and so they're on this i is there's about 45 minutes of setup and at one point my brother stands up on his movie scene goes where's king kong King Kong! So, so.

So, we interrupted you, Fortune. On all of my movie going? Have you actually seen something? I haven't seen anything, I feel like. All I do is hang out in comedy clubs. I'm clearly the perfect guest for you today. But you've been to movies in the past. I have. I out in comedy clubs. I'm clearly the perfect guest for you today. But you've been to movies in the past.

I have. I have definitely seen movies. Like if you had to testify in some sort of trial. We have movie theaters where I'm from. Where are you from? North Carolina. Oh, okay. So they have the one screen.

Yeah. The whole town shows up. We still have a drive-in movie theater, which I think is pretty awesome. I love that. I was whining about it recently that there's no drive-in movie theaters anymore. They're really awesome. It's so much fun,

because they show the movie that opened that day with the last movie released by the same studio. And the last time I was discussing this, I didn't have any good examples, and I still don't. But I think we saw, what was was that movie chip will know this the movie with Jennifer Lopez where it was like angel eyes or something like that angel eyes and uh who else is on that it was like Jim Caviezel played like this weird like homeless Christ figure that she takes in and something happens typecast i think and uh i think i saw that at

the drive-in on a double bill with uh fast and the furious like it was the weirdest like what do these two movies really have to do with each other other than they're both from columbia studios and they both came out the beginning of summer i saw true lies at a drive-in movie theater what was the other movie? I don't remember. That's my whole story. So, your chance you probably drove away and didn't watch the other one? It was with my mom and my brother. At the drive-in?

It was so romantic. See, I don't think I ever went with family to the drive-in. I think the first time I went was when I was going out with girls. I didn't have a car. Yeah, as soon as I have a car. Yeah, as soon as I got a car, we went and saw,

I saw Airplane that had opened that day and the second movie was Cheech and Chong's Up in Smoke. And everybody back then, maybe even today, probably today,

everybody honks their car horns when somebody smokes a joint. So, that movie was like 90 minutes of people honking their car horns when somebody smokes a joint. So that movie was like 90 minutes of people honking their car horns. It's ridiculous. I was trying to get laid. It's like trying to fuck at World Cup soccer.

You're like, ah! So have you been to the movies lately, Taylor? I went to the movie theater. I saw... Taylor Comedy. Taylor Comedy. Should I explain it so people see what happened? My name is Taylor.

And I'm a comedian. And Taylor Williamson is my full name, actually. But that didn't fit. Is that too many letters? It's too many letters. So I was like, Taylor Comedian, Taylor Comedy. What about T-du t-dubs t-dubs oh i should have gone t-dubs can you change it yeah you can i bet you somebody some asshole here's gonna run home and sabotage the account before you get to it i'll pay you 50 bucks 50 bucks so i saw so you went with taylor comedy i went with me and taylor

comedy where people can find you Went to the movie theater And what did you see? We saw Kick-Ass Oh okay so you went in like April That's recent Recent-ish Recent?

Yeah it's June, July It's July It's July but I love that movie I thought it was really Do I talk to you or the people in the audience at home? I think you can accomplish both at the same time. Just speak into your microphone.

We don't even have to look at each other, really. We could totally, you know, just look out front ways like the NPR ladies in that sketch on SNL. I like looking at them because they're not smiling.

They have their own kind of fun. It's called We Got Good Seats for Comedy Death Ray. So we're just going to muscle through this. Because that's how it works. You get priority seating if you buy tickets to Comedy Death Ray. I thought they'd bring it because I promoted it.

Did anybody come down because Twitter mentioned it on his tailor? All of these are your Twitter friends. Did you really? Clap into your microphones. They don't have microphones, but a few people came down. But it's mostly people here to see Death Ray and some fans of I Love Movies who just come in and see this and then leave.

I applaud that as do they. Cool. Yeah. And, you know, hopefully it won't get we won't be overwhelmed it'll be a nice mix of people waiting for the next show because they do have priorities so if everybody that wants to come to Death Ray

comes to this then the people that just showed up for this will get turned away yeah Chip is now remembering what it was like watching Toy Story 3. Crying behind his glasses. Now, what do you do, Chip?

You're wearing glasses now, but do you put the contacts, you throw the contacts in when you're going to see a 3D movie, or do you just double glass it like you're on the cover of John Lennon's Double Fantasy? Double insulation. Yeah, you just have the two glasses on. It doesn't give you a massive headache by the time Avatar's over.

Oh, yeah, yeah. Did you see Clash of the Titans? No, I didn't, but back to Double Fantasy, that album should be called Single Fantasy because every other song is one of those Yoko things. Single Fantasy, guys. I should have made a music reference in front of Chip because that's really his

area. I did not see Clash of the Titans. You've put your foot down on that. But when I masturbate and I cum, I yell out, go Kraken! Or whatever. Wait, what is that? I don't even know what it is. I yell out, Kraken auto parts!

Yeah, there it is. I was trying to make what it is. I yell out, Kraken auto parts! Yeah, there it is. There it is. I was trying to make it work, but I clearly have no interest. Yeah, it's Release the Kraken, which was like... Yeah, there it is. See, that would be a funny joke. There was a million Release the Kraken references when that movie came out. Yeah, I bet there was. On Twitter, everyone was like, when I do this, I yell Release the Kraken.

Oh, but when I do this, I yell Release the Kraken. When I release the Kraken, I yell release the Kraken. Oh, but when I do this, I yell release the Kraken. When I release the Kraken, I yell release the Kraken. That's the best time to do it, I find. That is when you're actually releasing it is a fun time to yell release it. But I think it's in order from one dude to the dude is releasing it in the movie. But I don't know.

Maybe. It's so complicated. Maybe he just yells it and the Kraken knows it's time to walk out. Like that's just its cue and then it's not being held at all it's just waiting around the corner i did see grown-ups though to bring it back oh you did yeah because i i will see like any i don't know i'll see any of those adam sandler movies and uh this one I found particularly lazy. It didn't seem right about them just making a movie on their vacation. Yeah. And not even like in Aruba. They could have picked a better vacation spot. It's just like in the woods.

But they all learn a lesson at the end and the lesson is don't become friends with Rob Schneider. Because he'll appear in every one of your movies after that. I don't think they tell him that they're making a movie. I think he finds them on Gawker Stalker. Just shows up with a trunk full of wigs and mustaches and accents. And he's actually dating that older lady that's his girlfriend in the movie? Yeah, he got her in there. Yeah, all right. accents and he's actually dating that old older lady that's his girlfriend in the movie yeah he

got her in there yeah all right i just that's one thing that really continues to crack me up about adam sandler movies is he oftentimes you can just see that he's having a character being played by one of his friends do a certain thing just because he can make his friends do things so like in this case it's like hey rob schneider i'm going to put you in the new movie, but you have to make out with some old lady repeatedly, and we're going to do lots of takes. And we're all just going to sit around and laugh our asses

off on the set. And my character is going to be the best guy in the world at all times, and never have no flaws, and just a cool guy who produces the movies. And nothing gets spilled on him ever or he doesn't ever have to.

with hot chicks. Every movie. He's always got a pretty awesome girlfriend. It's a different one every time too. Lucky. I think he's worked

with Drew Barrymore twice. You're Barrymore twice. Alright. But she looked different in each film. Oh, okay. I like that. You're the tentative stickler.

Like, no, it was twice, but she looked different. And she was in 50 First Dates like 50 times. She was in 50 First Dates, and then what was the other one? The Wedding Singer. Oh, yeah, duh. I was thinking more recently, like she might have been one of those ladies in that one with the gum falling from the sky. E.T.?

Yeah. Holy shit, I'm losing track of the time. I haven't even looked at my time piece. Did that make up for those up there, Joe? It would be so funny if the whole 45 minutes was up already. Here we go. Let's play the Leonard Maltin game. They're so conditioned.

Yeah, they are conditioned, but it's also like, you know, it's fun. I think they actually like it. I don't think they're just clapping because I said, you know, let's play, I can't think of it,

Chutes and Ladders. See, only a few people like Chutes and Ladders. Boggle, where's the boggle people? Oh, wow. Apples to Apples. All right, all right. Wait, what's Apples to Apples? You don't know that game?

Oh, I love that game. It's a board game? Yeah. Called Apples to Apples? Is that like a regional thing or something? I grew up in Southern California. I've never heard of it. It's not a Southern game. I didn't mean Southern necessarily.

It's way too sophisticated for that. Apples to Apples. Yeah, there's like a card in the middle that says like, I don't even know. It's like it says energetic or something and you have like all these things in your hand and that you have to decide if those things are indeed. See, I'm awful at describing things.

You have to decide like, you know, it could be like the Civil War. You're like energetic. And someone gets to judge whether or not that is indeed what they think of as energetic. You lost me at the second apples. In my home, we played a game called, growing up, we played a game called proofread mom's angry letters to her ex-husband.

But you yelled it out enthusiastically when it was time to play, right? You spelled don't bring the children into our fights incorrectly. What word out of don't bring the children into our fights could be misspelled?

All of them. Fights, F-I-T-E-S. Alright, let's play the letter mulling game. I'm going to start a sentence. Spell the sentence wrong. Can you say that? You can't say that. What do you mean?

We'll talk about this later. We probably won't judge you by your face. We're just going to have a big laugh and then cut to you saying you guys are awkward it's you know what andy kindler thought it was funny yeah like i said they were very nice judges this season they thought everything was funny we'll talk about this every slam Every time they'd slam somebody, they'd immediately go, but you were funny,

or but you were great. They were... I thought it was fun to watch and still will be fun to watch as we continue on. Who do you guys pick to win the whole thing? I still think I have a shot. Yeah.

Chip? We're going to be busy doing podcasts, so we won't probably have time to watch. You're probably going to pay attention. I think Adomian might be have time to watch. I think Adomian might be the one to beat. Sinbad? When they were

yelling at James Adomian the different impressions that he does, making it seem like he could just do anybody. They didn't make it like Natasha knows him and has seen him do George Bush

the way she was just like George Bush and he goes into a perfect George Bush. It's like holy shit this guy's amazing. Yeah, so he's really funny. I think there's a lot of

honestly everyone in the show is really funny. There's no one I dislike. I'll say that. I wish I could talk shit about somebody. Can I say shit? I thought that

Tommy Johnigan who I don't know and I thought he could talk shit about somebody. Can I say shit? I thought that Tommy Johnigan, who I don't know, and I thought he was just very clever, really. Yeah, yeah, he's a really funny guy. It was funny with Natasha, too. And the audiences go nuts for Mike DiStefano. Is that how you say it? DiStefano, yeah, yeah. I mean, they just went nuts every time I saw him.

He's always like, whenever he's being interviewed, he's always like, I'm going to murder people. He always seems so angry. And then on stage, he's always like whenever he's not whenever he's being interviewed he's like i'm gonna murder people he's always he always seems so angry and then on stage he's a little less angry oh yeah when i was when they uh called uh who went on and he did and i was in his row and i was like oh well okay well it was nice because he's such a character like you he just had such a great set he had the set of the night and And so I just thought, well, I'm toast because I'm in his row. And so it's fun, though. Fun show because if you don't advance, you get to lose there in the theater. And then you get to lose again two months later in front of everyone on national television.

It's really good. And you're kind of told not to talk about it in those two months. Yeah. Like you're supposed to leave all your friends and family up in the air thinking something might happen. But Chip doesn't seem that happy about things. We're great. I was performing in Meridian, Idaho a few weeks ago. Bragging.

Right? Hey, and this guy was like, so you're in Idaho right now, and it's already taped. I'm like, yeah. He's like, that means you probably didn't win, right? I was like, all right alright let's not talk anymore now we don't have time for the game just because of that story we don't have time for the game and that lady's out of here I'm sorry I thought it was worth it. I said there wasn't time for the game.

She's not quick on the turnaround. She left her bag here. Yeah, she'll be back. Can we go inside? We're poor. Can we go inside? She's like, I'm going to go now. She's like, if I go now,

maybe they won't have started the game by the time I get back. She'll never find us. Tyler probably has a story. Let's start down there on the end with Fortune. You get to pick from three categories, Fortune. Okay. Oh, yeah, I got to pick players.

How come you guys don't have name tags on? We got Chris and Brian over here with name tags on. So, Taylor, you're going to be playing for Chris. What's up, dude? Sorry, Chris. I was talking to him. Oh, you're... I don't like you. Chip, you can play to be playing for Chris. What's up, dude? Sorry, Chris. I was talking to him. Oh, you're... Okay.

I don't like you. Chip, you can play for Brian over here. Hi, Brian. I like your name. That's like the scribblings of an escaped mental patient. This is good. And then way over there, we've got... What does that say?

Cassie? Cassie has a normal name. So, Fortune, you're going to play for Cassie. Cassie. Yeah. She's yours to keep if you win. I love this game. I love this game so much.

All right. So, remember who you're playing for because I don't remember already. Chris. Taylor's playing for Chris. Chip's playing for, because I don't remember already. Chris. Taylor's playing for Chris. Chip's playing for Brian. And Fortune's playing to win. I have a lot at stake here. I'm ready.

Okay, you get to pick. I'm ready. You get to pick from these three categories, Fortune. Okay. Tom Cruise movies. It was his birthday the other day. Oh, yeah. He was born on the 3rd of July.

It's true. Can't make it up. Tom Cruise movies. Movies with bullshit poker scenes in them. Because I just got back from playing in the... I played in one event in the World Series of Poker and did not do very well at all. And I'm angry at movies that have poker in them i played one event in the world series of poker and did not do very well at all and i'm angry at movies that have poker in them and one actor in particular and then

uh in theaters now it's a relatively new category where people that might not know older movies can pick in theaters now because it's movies that are in theaters now which one of those categories do you like let's go for in theaters now i like it now i can't give you a choice of years because these are all in theaters now what about independent theaters that play movies from the 60s i would have to do a lot of research to figure out which movies from the 60s are in those theaters now. Because I mean now, Taylor. In theaters now. Just being clear. All right.

I saw today what's playing at the New Beverly, and I already forgot. They play old movies. Something really good, probably. All right. This is from 2010. Fortune's going to start us off with the bidding. I will tell you a few things

that Leonard has to say about this movie. He does lengthy reviews on his app for movies that just came out. And in this particular case, he says, this is a movie destined to catch audiences off guard. That's one clue that doesn't help. Then the next one. Is it the off-guarder?

don't guess early Chip it won't be everybody's cup of tea he says about this movie and he says it's a high spot of the summer movie season god damn you, Lynn. How do you do it? All right. He said those three things about it,

and there are ten names. How many names do you think you can get it in? Fortune Feenster. Seven. Seven names. Says Fortune Feenster. We come down here to Taylor. Eight.

You have to go lower or say name that movie, Fortune Feenster. Feenster. We come down here to Taylor. You have to go lower or say name that movie, Fortune Feenster. Feenster. I'm going to go six. Six names, says Taylor. Comedy. Chip Pope. I'm going to go five.

Five names to Feenster. Four. Four. Taylor. Name that movie. Name that movie. Okay, you get four names. This is from the bottom up. We can do this. It's from the bottom up.

We can do this, you and me. I could not tell you who any of these people are. It's tough names, but maybe you have some ideas from The Clues. I'll give you The Clues again one more time. It's a movie destined to catch audiences off guard. It's not everybody's cup of tea and it's the high spot of the summer movie season. I was so

excited I was going to get through that so quickly and then I screwed up summer movie season. Ten names. Here are the four bottom names. Steve Zizis, Tim Gwinney, Catherine Aselton, and Kathy Witts. Witts.

W-I-T-T-E-S. Yeah, it's tough names. We'll talk anyway after the show. So just name a... Yeah, you're not out yet, Cassie. Yeah, we're all winners tonight. Just name a movie that's in theaters now, and that would be a reasonable guess.

Night and Day. Incorrect. The rest of the names are Diane Mazzola, Matt Walsh, Catherine Keener, Marissa Tomei, Jonah Hill, John C. Reilly, Cyrus. I know it now. Guess. Get him to the Greek?

Nope. Yeah, so Cyrus, which I actually saw at South by Southwest and enjoyed very much and I want to see again because everybody loves everything at South by Southwest and I want to see it with an audience that's a little bit more neutral. But it was fantastic at South by Southwest.

Alright, so who made her guess? Did you make her guess, Taylor? I made her guess. All right, so you get a point. Yay. What's up, Chris? You get one point. We'll start this next one with Chip.

Do I have to make out with Chris? That's the rule. Nobody has to make out with anybody. It just would be nice. That's a polite gesture. That means yes. Let's let Chip pick from the following categories. Would you like movies that take place in Los Angeles?

Motion pictures that are sequels. I call them number twos. Because they usually are. And let's go with disaster movies. LA movies, number twos, or disaster movies. What about, let's have some civic pride Movies that take place in Los Angeles Here we go

Would you like one from 97, 2001, or 88? Oh, how about 88 Oh, I was eight years old Oh, 97 No, it's too late. 88. Leonard Mullen gives it 3.5 stars.

He says staggering special effects. Like you get up out of your chair and wobble around and then sit back down because it's hard to stagger sitting down. 88. It's a co-production of two different film studio companies.

Yeah. And it won Oscars. Those are your clues. Three and a half stars. 1988. And there are... The Color Purple. Twelve names.

No pre-guessing. Start the bidding with Chip Pope. Let's start at eight. Eight names. No pre-guessing. Start the bidding with Chip Pope. Let's start at eight. Eight names. Fortune? Seven. Fortune says seven, Taylor. Five.

Five names, Taylor Williamson. CP? Let's try four. Four names, he says. Name that movie. Here we go. Your four names are... Amazing Special Effects. Four. Four names, he says. Name that movie. Ooh. Here we go. Your four names are... Amazing Special Effects.

Staggering. Staggering. Staggering. Yeah. Who played Roger Rabbit? One Oscars. That's correct. Not to sound like a dick,

but I knew it just from the clues before we started naming that tune. You sound like a dick. We lived through it, kids. You did sound like a dick. I did. That was good. To totally sound like a dick.

Nobody ever says that. They tell you on game shows, even if you know it right away, to talk through it and act like you might not know it, and that makes it very exciting for everyone. All right, so let's let who told them to name that movie? So Taylor, you get to start this one.

Would you like to do movies with future guest John Lithgow? Movies that John Lithgow's been in. He's pledged to be on the show. He still hasn't shown up yet. Lithgow! Star Wars alum movies. That's movies with people from Star Wars in it. I'd explain that to Oscar Nunez last week.

He didn't know what alums meant. No, he did know. And I look like a dick. And then the third category. Let's go back to Tom Cruise's birth. It was his birthday. Tom Cruise movies. So you want John Lithgow, Tom Cruise, or Disasters?

Wait. What did I say before? Star Wars. Star Wars. Star Wars alumni. Okay. People from Star Wars are in this. And you can do 1971, 1980, or 1981.

Wow. Those are all old. We're in trouble. You really got boned on this one, didn't you? I put these in before I even know who the guests are going to be, just to make it super arbitrary. You picked someone who wasn't alive. I could have had a five-year-old out here,

and they would have really been fucked. Can we do people that were in Star Wars for 2005 movies? You can't do that. Can we do people that were in Star Wars for like 2005 movies? You can't do that. Would you prefer to do In Theaters Now again? Tom Cruise. That was my pick though.

Tom Cruise. Here, these are all sort of recent. Pick a year. 2004, 2006, or 2003? 2004. Okay, here we go. Chip has a point. Taylor has a point.

Why did I get a point? Because you said name that movie and then she fucked it up. Can I have Cassie if I win? What the fuck? 2004. Len gives it two and a half stars.

I think that's just about right. Good work, Leonard. It's got a character in it who dreams of running his own business. And it's well shot. And then, I love this. After kind of saying something negative, he goes, still quite watchable.

All right? It's like Greg. Still quite watchable. Two and a half stars. People in the audience are mumbling. And you get 13 names. Taylor Willison, how many names can you get this movie? Ten.

From 2004, featuring Tom Cruise. Ten names, he says. Fortune? Six. Fortune? Six. Chip? Name that movie. Oh, I see we have another chance. Six names.

From the bottom. It's about a guy who, one of the characters' dreams of running his own business it's quite watchable and it's well shot six names jason statham richard t jones debbie mazer down uh entourage has really gone downhill since she hasn't been on it. Debbie Mazur. Bodie Elfman. That's, you know,

Jenna Elfman's Bodie. Barry Chebaka Henley. That's not a real name. Chebaka from Star Wars? Chebaka. And Irma P. Hall. Those are your six names from this movie from 2004.

I get to be a loser. Tom Cruise is in it, so if you name a Tom Cruise movie, you'd have a shot at getting this right. I have no idea. Vanilla Sky. You know, that's a perfectly respectable guess. And it's wrong. I'm a loser twice.

Javier Bardem, Bruce McGill, Peter Berg, Mark Ruffalo, Jada Pinkett Smith, Jamie Foxx. In Living Color. And Tom Cruise. No, it's a movie called Collateral, directed by Michael Mann. Well shot. Boo. Yeah.

It tosses credibility down the drain during the climax and then he says still quite watchable. But it climaxed. So Chip won the point. He wins the game. Congratulations, Chip. Congratulations to Brian. Lucky.

Brian, you win. A copy of What Would Susie Say by Susie Essman from Curb Your Enthusiasm. I was handed that recently and thought, someone else might like this.

That's nice of you to raise your hand. On Monday, I gotta get all this in. We're out of time. On Monday, I'm going to be doing the Benson Interruption in Los Angeles at Largo. Everyone who buys a ticket for that will automatically be put on the list to be the first

people we call to be in the studio audience when the Benson Interruption starts taping shows for television in the fall. Yeah, it's actually becoming a TV show. So come to the Interruption Monday night at Largo. Everyone who buys a ticket gets on the priority list to come to the tapings that will be happening in Los Angeles in the fall. And I got that in. Taylor, where are you going to be? I'm available for bookings.

Again, all three of you guys, I totally encourage you to try Last Comic Standing again next year because that's what worked for me. I had a great set the one year, didn't make it in. The next year had what was, by by any standard not as good a set and I made it in so it's all fairly arbitrary but if you're tenacious I think it can work for you

and the exposure is great and people will come up to all three of these people and say you were robbed you should have advanced probably for the rest of their lives so so enjoy that and as always
