Hey, hey, hey, everybody.
My name is Doug, and I love movies.
This is Doug Loves Movies.
Who's that extra loud guy over there?
Were you the same one that said hello, Doug, earlier really loud?
Is that going to be the last we hear from you this show?
Perfect. He gave me the thumbs up.
I love it. Coming to you from
the UCB Theater, Franklin
Avenue location in Los Angeles,
California on Wednesday, November
11th, 2015.
Happy Veterans Day, everybody!
Happy Veterans Day, everybody!
Do we have any vets in the crowd at all?
Didn't think so.
It's kind of a younger, nerdier crowd for that,
but still thought I'd ask.
I didn't know what I was going to do if somebody said yes.
Maybe just hand them the prize bag.
It's gigantic and super heavy, you guys,
because I put a lot of stuff in there this time
so somebody's
going to win this tonight so let me see those
name tags there's a fella
right there a lady
a lady fella
I didn't
see who wrote the tweet but you made
a genie
in the chocolate factory sign
and you had to go through Sweet, but you made a Genie in the Chocolate Factory sign.
Yeah.
And you had to go through, where'd you come here from?
Nova Scotia.
Nova Scotia?
And you had to go through security in Canada with, you said you had a glue gun?
Yes.
But you got it through? You explained to them that you needed a glue gun to make a really cool poster of a freaky-looking Willy Wonka?
Is that your face on Willy Wonka?
Badly done, yeah.
Badly done, yeah.
It's kind of frightening how he looks.
You'd think he'd look softer with a pretty lady face,
but instead it's scary-looking.
But then you also glued a bunch of different
candies to it.
Different British chocolates.
Which is, yeah.
No Wonka chocolates, but close enough.
British stuff.
I love it. Good job. And then
sitting next to you, we have a Price is Right name tag.
Because you went on Price is Right?
You did it today?
And did you get to come on down?
And well, when you didn't get called,
you should have whipped out the glue gun
and made some threats.
Because that Drew Carey, he'll cave.
He'll put you right in the showcase showdown
if you point a glue gun at his head.
There's lots of light-up ones here tonight.
There's this lady.
Seems very proud of something she just probably drew about five minutes ago.
All three of you guys in the front row, just like, they're well-drawn.
We'll see if they get picked.
Good luck, Christina and Jason and Rob, and everybody else that made name tags.
Thank you very much.
Straight out of Anton.
I like that.
Ooh, what's that?
Is that the new guy from Star Wars Force Awakens?
What's his name?
BB?
BB-8.
BB-8?
Yeah, and you have one.
And then you just slapped an ugly sign on it.
On that beautiful little rolling robot.
Okay, what's your name?
Michelle.
Okay, Michelle.
You know, I don't like to predict these things ahead of time,
but if I were one of the guests, I'd grab that thing,
and then I'd keep it.
That's what I would do.
But thanks for bringing your name tags, you guys.
Let me do some plugs really quick.

Douglovesmovies.com for all the info you could ever need about everything.
Let's get into this huge prize bag, and then I've got to get the guests out here.
Last night in Nashville, someone at the show named Kimmy brought as her name tag a giant blow up donut
from the Simpsons
yeah from like the Simpsons
her name tag was the Kimpsons
because her name is Kim
and it's even got the bite out of it and everything
but I had to deflate it
much like your glue gun situation
I had to travel with this so I couldn't just keep it blown up
and just claim it was a hemorrhoid donut.
So I had to deflate it.
So whoever wins is going to have to blow it up.
Whatever you want to do with it.
It's up to you.
It's your life.
And then we got a Doug Loves Movies t-shirt.
A guy won the prize bag recently, and he wrote to me on Twitter, hey, the Doug Loves Movies t-shirt. A guy won the prize bag recently, and he wrote to me on Twitter,
hey, the Doug Loves Movies t-shirt isn't my size
that was in the prize bag.
Can I trade it in for my size?
And on Twitter, I wrote back, nope.
So I had to laugh when I did that.
Here's a copy of Howard Stern's Miss America.
Yeah, I don't need that anymore.
Here's another book.
These are just super heavy books.
It's called Pick Me Up, Stuff You Need to Know.
And there's examples on the back.
Was Beethoven a punk?
Why do we smile?
What's the connection between dogs and rockets?
I don't care about any of those.
I'm not at all interested.
I'm more like, how does BB-8 move around?
I'm more curious about that.
We got a T-shirt from the 2015 311 cruise that I was on,
and somebody made shirts and gave me one.
Oh, this is fun.
A VHS copy.
It's not even in regular packaging.
It's in a box from PhotoChem Film and Video.
But it's the film Pan's Labyrinth on VHS.
Who wouldn't be proud to own that?
And, oh, another shirt from Sarah Weinshank from Tuesday Snacks.
So all of that, let me make sure.
I think there's a Garfunkel notes lighter in here somewhere.
Did it fell out?
Okay.
Garfunkel notes lighter.
I'm going to sneeze.
Maybe not.
It happened.
Thank you so much.
Be quiet.
That'd be funny to be a librarian who sneezes a lot
and yells at people to be quiet when they say bless you.
Let's get my guests out here.
Please give a big warm welcome to Tess Morris,
Greg Fitzsimmons, and Graham Elwood. I like it when you get the whistling out of the way early.
That was just a prelim.
Oh, no.
There's more to come.
Yeah, I have a whole. There's more to come.
Yeah, I have a whole album I'm going to do.
But let's meet everybody individually, starting with a first-time guest.
Let's have a round of applause for Tess Morris, everybody.
I can't see anyone.
It's so dark.
Very excited to have you here. You sound really excited.
I do.
Because you wrote a movie that I enjoyed very much.
You enjoyed it very much.
When I was asked if I would like to have you on the program,
I said yes, because it's a film we haven't seen yet here in the States,
but I got to see it at a film festival.
What festival did you see it at?
The Traverse City Film Festival last summer.
Nice, Michael Moore's.
Yeah, Michael Moore.
That's his festival, yeah.
And their slogan is only great movies,
and I have to agree in the case of your film,
it's called Man Up.
And it stars our pal Simon Pegg.
Yes, he loves you very much.
And Lake Bell.
Yes, she loves you maybe.
I'm not sure.
Yeah, we get along.
She hasn't done this show yet,
but she said she would.
Yeah, you got me instead.
It's a scheduling thing.
But she has a British accent throughout the film.
She does, yeah.
And I heard that some crew members on the movie
that weren't familiar with her
were fooled into thinking she was truly a British lady.
Yeah, you'd think that they would maybe, like,
six weeks on set, you might Google your leading actress.
Yeah, you might be like, oh, like,
oh, maybe she's been in something else.
Who is she?
But no, she, so she stayed in her accent
for the whole of the filming.
And then on the day she wrapped,
she like came out really dramatically
to do this thank you speech to everyone.
And she started in her British accent
and then she went, suddenly went into her real New York twang.
And everyone was like, what the fuck?
Like actually annoyed with her, genuinely annoyed with her.
Yeah, like you tricked us.
Yeah.
Kind of like the premise of the film.
Exactly.
Where it's like a blind date kind of situation where she takes the date anyway, even though
she knows she's not.
Well, it's based on something that actually happened to me.
So I was under the clock at Waterloo Station, which is in London, England.
And a guy came up to me
and said
are you Claire?
He thought I was his blind date
and I said
no, no, I'm not Claire
and then as he walked away
I thought
what if I said
that I was Claire?
So that became the idea
for the film.
So yeah, so she basically
pretended to be British
and then all the crew
Oh, you didn't follow through
with I'm Claire?
No, I didn't
but I wrote a film
about it instead.
Very nice.
I actually saw this on a plane. I loved this film. On everyone's story a film about it instead. Very nice. I actually saw this on a plane.
I loved it.
Everyone saw it on a plane.
You saw it on a plane.
I saw it on a plane.
You've been doing a lot of international travel.
That's Graham Elwood, everybody.
I'm sorry.
Hello.
How are you?
No, no, no, no.
This is the worst time for you to do your terrible accents.
He's the worst at accents.
Are you going to say, hello Mary Poppins?
No, that was my Chinese accent.
That was Chinese?
Hello all from China.
Me mom lives in a great wall.
Are you going to do this
for the whole hour?
Somebody here might not know
that that's my real accent.
I love that I said Man Up
starring Simon Pegg and Lake Bell,
and we talked about it that long before you went,
oh, yeah, I saw that.
The title, I blanked on the title.
Yeah, that's the thing.
Was that the title from Jump, the Man Up?
From Jump, you mean from the get-go?
Yes.
From the jump.
Yeah, it was, because I kind of wanted,
like, the film's about everyone manning up.
It's not a kind of masculine sort of thing,
and I wanted to sort of reclaim the phrase a bit, so it's not like, oh,ning up. It's not a masculine sort of thing, and I wanted to reclaim the phrase a bit,
so it's not like, oh, man up.
It's like, man up everyone.
Yeah, she has to man up as well.
She does.
Yeah, and I saw it with a crowded theater
laughing the whole time,
so it's still hilarious watching it
just in your plane seat.
And what aircraft?
I think I was on a 787 Dreamliner.
Good.
This is a United plane.
Great.
You asked just the right person
because Graham's one of the few people
that knows the answers to these questions.
Yeah.
I'm just like, I was on a plane.
On my way over here,
I was on the plane, obviously,
because I flew,
and there were people watching it around me,
which was very weird.
It was quite freaky.
I went over to a few of them
and said, I wrote that film. Really? I was a twat. And they were like, oh was very weird. It was quite freaky. I went over to a few of them. I said, I wrote that film.
Really?
Like a twat.
And they were like, oh, sit down.
Yeah, you did.
Calm down.
Everyone on this plane's written a film.
We were going to LA.
Uh-huh.
Sure you have.
But yeah, it's great.
It was great.
I loved it.
It was a nonstop to Melbourne.
Thank you.
Nonstop?
Yeah.
Fuck yeah.
Am I an asshole?
I got upgraded too.
I'm not a fucking animal.
Where do you stop
when you're going to Melbourne anyway?
Like where would you stop?
Probably Sydney.
Sometimes you go Sydney
and then hop down.
A little bing bing.
Yeah, a little bop bop.
Okay, I like it.
Very nice.
And Greg Fitzsimmons
is here everybody.
Thank you.
Thank you Doug for having me. Thank you. Thank you, Doug, for having me.
Thank you for taking time out from your busy schedule of wearing hats
to come on down.
I know you're kind of a west side guy,
so I appreciate you coming all the way out here.
Venice Beach, me and Graham.
Yeah, Graham's out at the beach, too.
West side, bitches.
Came all the way here.
And the hats are, they're not a choice.
There's my, the top of my hair is starting to thin out a little bit.
He's just taking his hat off.
And when the light hits me, I look like a light bulb because I'm so pale.
And so I wear the hat.
Everyone's like, do you have an idea, Greg?
I'm constantly having ideas.
I'd believe that.
People stand around me and read novels.
So I do it out of respect to you guys.
I appreciate it.
Fitzdog Radio is the name of the podcast.
Twice a week.
You've been on it many times.
Yeah, I love it.
It's fun.
You're going to talk about a podcast on a podcast?
Oh, yeah.
Wait until you get Graham started.
Holy shit.
This is the most incestual thing you've ever seen in your life.
Okay.
Graham is not only a co-host of a podcast called Comedy Film Nerds,
he also has made a motion picture all about podcasting.
Oh, okay.
Shot largely at the podcast festival that he
created. Podcast, podcast,
podcast!
No money! Podcast!
When you write it on a computer,
spellcheck still underlines
it like it's not a word.
It usually gets podfast.
When I try to write
podfest, it always says podfast.
I don't know why that would be better
than pod fest
like it's not
it's pod fest
it's uh
let's not be assholes
so it's a festival
for podcasts
yes
these two guys
have been in it
and you brought a shirt
from the movie
earbuds
this is my donation
to the thing
and it's a medium
and if this size
doesn't fit you
go to the fucking website
and buy another one
you goddamn cheap assholes
it's an indie film. We're barely fucking
staying alive. We've got to sell Greg's
hats just to fucking finish post.
He does. He comes over to my house
and he goes, can I go to the restroom? And then he leaves
and he's got stuff under his shirt.
And he never catches on.
Nope. He's never caught on once.
No, not once. And I keep having him over.
Kids love them.
What did you bring for the prize bag, Tess?
Oh, mine's rubbish.
Because I'm British, in case anyone didn't realize.
Oh, I thought you were doing a Lake Bell accent.
No.
I'm going to fool you all in an hour and start speaking American.
I bought posters from the film,
but I'm not sure if they're the American or the UK posters.
Let's bust them out and find out.'re the American or the UK posters so that's the exciting thing
are the American ones fatter and have guns?
I'm not going to be able to open this now though
hang on wait I can
oh that's a
looks like it's a lot of posters
holy shit
so these are for people's walls
they're rubbish they're supposed to take them home and throw them out these are for people's walls.
No, they're rubbish.
They're supposed to take them home and throw them out.
The side of their vans, Greg.
I just don't know
how many people in L.A.
have houses that are so big.
They've got like a big
four by three foot space.
Look at that.
That's a great poster.
Oh, that's worth it though.
If I'd been in London,
I would have bought
like something more personal,
but rather than a poster of the film that I wrote. I like that you brought posters of the film If I'd been in London, I would have bought something more personal. Beautiful three colors.
Rather than a poster of the film that I wrote.
I like that you brought posters of the film and that you brought so many.
There's more.
We only need one for the prize bag.
There's more behind me.
So let's just give some out randomly to folks.
Yeah, take them.
Please do.
Put them up in your small homes.
Yeah.
Yeah, everybody that has a home that's big enough for the poster.
For some people, that might be wallpaper for the poster. For some people that might be wallpaper
for the entire apartment.
Come and,
oh,
Graham will pass them out.
Thank you very much,
Graham.
There you go.
There you go.
Have a poster.
And is the other,
the other one's the same,
same thing?
Have a poster for a film
you haven't seen
that you might not like.
Sometimes,
like at comedy shows,
there'll be somebody
that takes the poster down
from the front of the club,
and they ask you to sign it, and it's like 10 feet by 7 feet, and you're like, where is this going?
Yeah, are you really going to put this up on a wall in your home?
How long until this is in a dumpster?
But straight up written by Tess Morris, no co-writers.
That is sole credit, baby.
No one else got involved.
Sole credit.
I like that you're applauding that. In England, we're like, of course, sole credit, no one else got involved sole credit did I like that you're
applauding that
amazing
in England we're like
of course sole credit
of course
were Lake and Simon
throwing around any ad libs
at all
well actually you know what
that is a really
interesting question
that I can now answer for you
because everyone keeps
asking me that
and basically
we would do ten takes
pretty much of every shot
every scene
whatever you want to call it
and
and then we do
one last final shot
where the director
would shout,
Lucy Goosey.
And when he shouted
Lucy Goosey...
That sounds like a fun set.
Yeah, so when he shouted
Lucy Goosey,
it meant that sometimes
we'd let them kind of
ad-lib a little bit.
And sometimes it would work
and sometimes it wouldn't.
But obviously,
they both write,
so I'm obviously...
I wanted them
to add their own stuff.
The more hilarious it is, the better.
You've got sole credit for this sucker.
Yeah, exactly.
So feel free to improvise Simon Pegg and Lake Bell, but only within the constraints of the script.
Yeah, they definitely kept it within the constraints.
Are you actually genuinely handing them out?
I feel really embarrassed now.
No, people love it.
Let's pin one there
and read that quote
from Screen Relish.
A laugh out loud
outstanding comedy.
Yeah.
I'll put my...
That's gonna,
that's,
oh, there you go, yeah.
There you go,
but now we can't drink coffee.
You can't drink, yeah,
as soon as you drink the poster.
Can we get two really long straws?
Yeah.
What a couple of gentlemen taking turns passing out posters.
This is the whole podcast now.
I love it.
Everybody's rolling up their posters,
thinking about which wall it's going to go on.
Free cycling.
You can put your bins out tonight.
You guys are very nice and polite,
although true, typical nerd podcast fans,
they were afraid to make eye contact
with me when I walked up there.
It's like, anybody want one? And they're all like,
no, I don't want to look at you.
If looking at you is what it's going to take, I don't want one.
I don't want it.
It could be there is a large percentage of them that
are high right now. No,
no, it's a very straight-laced crowd.
Most of them just came right over
from the Scientology building,
which gives me a great idea.
Why not, if you don't have room on the wall for your poster tonight,
go over and put it on the side of the Scientology center.
Let's just cover it in man-up posters.
I fully support that notion.
And then take photos and hashtag man-up.
Yeah, because Scientologists need to man up more than anybody.
Man up and get out.
Get your shit together, get clear, and then leave.
Get on the ship.
Yeah.
What do you got for the prize bet, Greg?
Well, there's a...
The prize bet, bro.
You got a beautiful...
That is a lovely blue hue.
Brand new.
Well, it's a UCLA Bruins sweatshirt.
For a small child.
For a child.
Well, my wife is getting a degree.
My wife.
My wife.
She is best prostitute in Kazakhstan.
Kazakhstan.
Kazakhstan.
So she started getting a degree at UCLA,
and so I went and bought her a sweatshirt.
When she was a child.
I don't know why I bought such a small one.
It's like a child's
medium.
I honestly don't know what to...
When I shop, I don't look at shit.
I just go, oh, that works and I grab
it and I buy it. I Christmas shop
for my entire family in under
an hour at a mall. And so
this doesn't fit her so I figured I'd bring it
and give it to somebody here. What's the surprise that it doesn't fit her? How weird that that child so this doesn't fit her, so I figured I'd bring it and give it to somebody here.
What's the surprise that it doesn't fit her?
How weird that that child's jumper doesn't fit your wife.
And this Adam Carolla show hat doesn't fit anybody?
It doesn't fit me.
Here's what it is.
It's one of these hats that, you know,
some hats are nice and flat on your head, and some of them, they just stand, they're just too high.
Oh, wow.
Yeah, it looks like you got a lot of extra weird head in there. Wow.
You're like one of those guys that is an arsonist
that's watching the building burn
with the crowd and put a hat on.
It's like, oh, wow, this fire's awful
while you're jerking yourself off in your pants.
You basically bought
gifts that don't fit anyone that you know.
I thought that was the idea. That's the idea, yeah.
It's just get rid of some crap.
Yeah. And, uh, yeah.
I'm not gonna lie to you. I drove here, and you
had asked me to bring a gift, and I have
all kinds of Fitz Dog Radio merch. Hats
and caps and... Hats and caps.
Hats and caps. Yep. Get them all. Well, I'm
translating for the British guest. Thank you, yeah.
And, um, And I forgot it.
And so I looked in the trunk of my car and I found stuff I was planning on returning.
And I brought it here.
I had this the other day with what you call a vest.
We call a waistcoat.
Really?
Yeah.
And it was a very confusing 10 minute conversation with someone where they were like, I was wearing
a vest.
And I was like, so you mean like like because we call a vest like a string vest
you know like you have
like little straps here
sure
but then I was like
but she was
but she was describing
a waistcoat
which is a very different
thing to a vest
it's different
even though it's
the same language
there are things
that are different
there are things
right
it's weird isn't it
yeah yeah
but you know
we're all God's children
you know what I mean
we're all
have you been to the movies lately Graham yes I have Doug isn't it? Yeah, yeah. But you know, we're all God's children. You know what I mean? We're all.
Have you been to the movies lately, Graham?
Yes, I have, Doug.
Yeah, what did I,
oh, I saw Spectre.
Of course you did.
I saw Spectre on Sunday
at the Chinese theater
on the big IMAX.
It was a lot of fun.
Had a good time.
Did they translate it
from Chinese?
Yeah, yeah.
He's all like,
I'm born,
ching chong, ching chong,
007. Why would you say that? Wow Yeah, yeah. He's all like, I'm Bond. Ching-chong, ching-chong.
007.
Why would you say that? So racist.
That's awful.
Ding-a-dung-a-dung-dung-dung-dung.
Wow.
Most racist Bond ever.
God, it was so brutal.
I was offended.
It was casual racism.
That was different.
Yeah, at least he's not sexist anymore.
That's the bottom line.
Casual sexism.
He just runs around making fun of people of all the different worlds he travels to.
I enjoyed it.
I also felt like
it felt,
you know,
it feels like
It was rubbish as well.
Oh,
I know you hated it
but I,
I don't know,
I was sort of like,
it's a Bond movie
and I know Daniel Craig
has said he doesn't
want to do them anymore
and maybe he's not
and they're talking
about getting somebody else
and I was sort of like,
wow,
I've been watching these
since my entire life
and I think I'm done.
I had a good time
and I don't give a shit about them. Wow, I didn't have a good time and I think I'm done. I had a good time, and I don't give a shit about them.
Wow.
I didn't have a good time, and I think I'm done.
Yeah.
Or I hope they give it to somebody else.
You know, I heard a rumor or a story or something about how there was that one point when they were, I think, right before the Daniel Craig reboot.
I think Tarantino was pitching the idea of, I'd like to make one, but I'd like to go back and have it take place in the 60s and go back and really reboot it.
And they said no.
They're never going to do that.
They're never going to do anything interesting with it.
They just have to stick to this weird formula that's like they're peeling away the best parts of the formula.
There's no hot girls that are naked.
There's just a mouse plot point, Inspector.
There's a mouse that changes everything.
Right, yeah. Spoiler, you guys.
It means nothing. There's a mouse.
He's not even...
It's so boring. And I love Bond.
I'm like, oh, I love a Bond film.
I'm not like...
And they've all had pacing problems over the years.
This is two and a half hours long.
It's boring.
Nothing happens.
I felt like,
first of all,
the gadget we're talking about is a watch.
It's a fucking watch.
Can I say what it does?
That he's allowed
to leave on.
Well, that's the thing
is I've already gotten
yelled at for spoilers
from last night.
We did a show last night
and we talked about it a lot.
Is it a spoiler
the fact that
she falls asleep
dressed and then
she wakes up undressed,
which was a little bit strange to me as well.
Oh, he pulls a Cosby on her?
Yeah.
Cosby.
Bill Cosby.
They really show.
I want my pudding shaken, not stirred.
If you know what I mean, ladies, yeah.
Graham, you went too far.
It was funny, and then you went ahead.
I was quoting the movie.
Roger Moore, when he was James Bond, he'd have lucky
moments where he got across the pond
by jumping on the heads of a bunch of alligators.
But this
Bond, a whole building collapses,
and he just slides down the side of it, and then
lands in a comfy couch.
It's so... like, okay,
you are a great agent,
the way you made that happen.
The way when a building
that you didn't know was gonna collapse
is collapsing below you,
you just slide down the side of it,
brush yourself off,
and go back to doing your thing, you know?
Well, they actually did that in Casino Royale.
There was a scene where he was...
That's your favorite film ever made.
It is literally...
I just saw it last night with my kids
and I'd seen it before
and I remember it being
one of my favorite movies.
Confirmed.
One of my top five
Kids, stay awake.
Bond's about to get
his balls whacked.
That was uncomfortable.
Not just for him.
Why is it your favorite
film ever made?
Because to me
it was like
I felt like you guys.
I was out on Bond. I was done.
And then I went to see it because I'd heard good
buzz about the Daniel Craig
reboot. And I went in and
it was so different. It was
like the moment where he's sitting in the shower
with her after the murder
and he's vulnerable. That was the first time
he'd ever been emotional.
And he's such a fucking good actor.
The action scenes were great and I really was back in. And he's such a fucking good actor and the action scenes were great
and I really was back in
and now I'm back out
after this last one.
I thought Sean Connery
was pretty emotional
when he strangled that lady.
She asked for it.
Sean Connery,
I was watching...
He's a brute.
You're going to say The Rock.
I was watching The Rock
and he's amazing in it.
He's amazing in The Rock.
No, but like,
if you watch...
I was just watching Dr. No and Goldfinger.
Why?
Because they were on planes.
Oh, okay.
Easy.
That's how I saw yours.
What flight it is.
He could only watch Man Up so many times.
Oh, here it is in Mandarin.
But no, and Sean Connery was mean.
He was a fucking evil, mean assassin who also was charming.
And so I like that Daniel Craig has sort of gone back to that.
If you're an assassin, you're going to be a fucking evil, sinister dude
and justifies it, oh, queen and country or whatever.
So I like that Daniel Craig was sort of more like Connery.
It wasn't all flim-flammy like Roger Moore and whatnot.
I like that Daniel Craig was sort of more like Connery.
It wasn't all flim-flammy like Roger Moore and whatnot.
But I feel like the franchise won't... It wasn't a Sam Mendes movie.
It was a Bond movie that Sam Mendes directed.
And they're going to just make everybody sort of fit in that mold,
no matter who they are.
But then Casino Royale was Martin Campbell,
and that was like...
It was much more fun as a film,
but it had emotional punch as well.
Much more Campbell, I would say.
Campbellesque.
Campbellesque.
Campbellesque.
Yeah, I say about his films, mm, good.
You know?
You want to use a fork, but you use a spoon
to get every drop of the movie.
I think the biggest crime was Spectre,
as she says, really pronouncing it.
I thought it obviously was Spectra.
Spectra, of course. And then she says in the film, she's like, really pronouncing it. I thought it obviously was spectra. Spectra, of course.
And then she says in the film, she's like, it's specter.
And I just found it really boring.
I felt angry while I was watching it
because I was like, this is, nothing is happening.
It's just set piece, set piece, set piece, set piece.
And there's no, like, at least Skyfall
had that nice emotional punch between
Dame Judi Dench and Daniel Craig.
And it was all about kind of like, you know,
mother, son sort of shit.
So that one appealed to me.
Yeah, I was happy she was gone at the end of that one.
Yes, I was too.
Because I thought this one would be more fun.
But then they did that weird thing
where she came back in that video message to him.
Yes, more spoilers.
That's not really a spoiler.
We spoil the whole thing for you anyway.
I don't want to spoil it,
but the opening scene was obviously,
we talked about, it was crazy.
Was that the opening scene, the building falling down?
Well, yeah, that's the other thing about James Bond.
When he gets in that helicopter, he just sort of jumps in there and starts fighting guys,
even though they're in a helicopter.
And there's hundreds of people, thousands of people below them,
and he's putting all of them in jeopardy just to get these two guys.
He's not good at what he does.
No.
No, he's not playing the numbers
on that. I also feel like
I love Jason Bourne so much now.
I feel like he's usurped
Bond for me in many ways.
That's why Bond jumps off of buildings
now, because he's got a parkour just like
Bourne. They just have to adopt
whatever's going on in action movies.
But Kingsman, The Secret Service
and Colin Firth
are the best Bond
and Bond movie
of this or any other year.
I have not seen that film.
I love it.
Is it good?
It's really good.
It's really violent, though.
Yeah, but is it actually good, though?
The second half,
it lost me in the second half.
But very stylish, though,
you know,
like more fun.
There's nothing fun
about this Spectre.
No, there's no fun,
apart from the mouse plot point,
and that's quite funny.
Yeah.
Just fucking watch Mouse Hunt or something.
Yeah.
Or Stuart Little.
If you're that into mice.
Watch Mouse Hunt.
Stuart Little.
Well, I'm watching it in the...
So the opening scene is the building falls down.
And then there's a crazy car chase scene.
And then there's a second car chase scene about 40 minutes in.
And the guy two rows behind me goes yeah right.
Like they were going
it must have been a little bit faster than that
second one.
Here's a fun idea.
Let's give Bond a gadget car where the gadgets
aren't installed yet. So he's just flipping switches
hoping it'll do something.
So dumb. It was like a
beta Bond car.
Yeah.
All right, well,
that was a fun discussion about Spectre.
We didn't talk about any other movies,
but this is the part of the show where I say,
let the games begin!
People brought name tags.
You guys each have to pick one.
Go physically grab the name tag you'd
like to play for. There's some really really good stuff out there. I think you
guys you'll have a tough choice unless you just grab one like that.
Interesting. Did not though that went exactly how I expected it to go.
But I feel bad that the Willy Wonka... You came here all the way from Nova Scotia
with a Willy Wonka thing, so...
Honestly, I didn't get it
because I thought I was being nice.
I just figured somebody else wanted it.
Something...
Oh, it's great.
It's a stuffed animal.
This is a great one.
I mean, it's a stuffed version of the robot
from the new Star Wars.
What?
But reach into the bag, Jenny, and just take any prize you want out of the bag.
Whatever you like in there.
Just one.
Don't go crazy.
Because that's a really good name tag.
She came all that way with it.
Is she going to try on this?
She wants to see how everything feels, I guess.
Yeah.
She's like a proctologist.
She got the T-shirt, Doug Loves Movies T-shirt.
There you go.
Thanks, Jenny.
Hey!
I spent a few days in Nova Scotia earlier this year.
I know.
That's why I'm wearing this Trailer Park Boys hoodie.
We're from the town they're from.
You're from the town they're from in the show?
Dartmouth. Dartmouth? But they shoot now're from in the show? Dartmouth.
Dartmouth?
But they shoot now in Truro, right?
Yeah.
Okay.
Greg, you've got the stuffed BB-8,
and they put a sign on it that says
The Michelle Awakens,
because that's her name, Michelle.
Star Wars The Michelle Awakens.
Yeah.
Yeah, it looks like it was actually handmade.
And the head, the beautiful thing is,
actually spins all the way around again and again.
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do.
Is that the Mandarin version of Star Wars?
This little guy says, fuck you, R2-D2.
I do a lot more crazy shit than you do.
Nice. Nice.
It's beautiful.
I could sleep with this.
It's very soft, actually, isn't it?
It's got a nice little velour touch to it.
Do you use it as a pillow?
That'd be a classic nerdy move to use that as your airplane pillow.
Like you're just sitting on a plane.
But if you were on a plane, you could watch Man Up while you were...
Yeah, sleep through Man Up on your Star Wars pillow.
Who are you playing for, Tess?
I'm playing for Purple Nick.
It's a poster of the film Purple Rain starring the Purple One.
Can we say Prince now, the symbol?
Whatever you want to call it.
He's Prince again.
Do you know what I never realized?
Directed by Albert Magnoli, who I have no idea who he is.
He was a...
I believe he was like
a music executive
was he
type
or a music video director
yeah
I picked it because
I feel emotional
when I see anything
concerning Prince
so
yeah you just
grabbed that right away
and because I'm pregnant
now that I've touched it
because Prince is there
okay
I think it's because
you're British
you just like anything
with royalty in the name
it's true
that's the other reason as well
yeah
Graham
well I too chose a Nick
I chose a gentleman that took the poster
for Ex Machina
and he put Doug your face on the lady
yeah looking the wrong way
weird looking
weird looking AI that has some rotating face
and changed it to ex-Machinic.
He has lights on it.
I'm a sucker for lights.
Yeah, it's on a stick and it lights up.
Light stick.
There is a picture of you over prints as well.
I forgot to say that to you, Doug.
It's really well done.
It's very realistic.
A little black and white photocopy version
of my face taped on
there.
in color.
That would have
helped matters.
But it got picked,
so, you know.
It's true.
Any amount of
criticism, how could
it hurt you?
You succeeded.
Some other people
tried really hard,
and you won.
So good for you.
Let's play some
games.
Yeah.
That's the idea of
this part of the
show, and we're going to play a game that's fairly new
And a favorite amongst maybe a few people out there
It's called Doug Loves Musicals
Yeah, see, there you go
A few people like it
I'm going to list a bunch of songs from a movie musical
And you just say into your microphone, you can guess as many
times as you want,
just first person who guesses the name of the
correct name of this movie musical
is the winner of this game.
I'm nervous.
Do you like musicals? Yes and no.
So it'll be interesting.
What don't you like about them?
Well, I like some musicals and I don't like
others.
Oh, okay.
Maybe me and Graham will guess the movies
and then you say yes or no.
Yes.
That's like if somebody said,
do you like comedies?
Yes and no.
No.
I like good ones.
I'm a real stickler.
Do you like James Bond movies?
Yes and no.
No.
I like the good one.
It was called Octopussy.
Yeah.
All right. Which movie musical has all of these songs in it? I like the good one. It was called Octopussy. Yeah.
Which movie musical has all of these songs in it?
There's a song in it called Maybe.
There's a song called Let's Go to the Movies.
Oh, Annie.
Did you like that musical?
Yes.
Because it was terrible, the movie version of Annie. It was so good.
Let's go to the movie.
Is that how it goes?
Yeah, let's, and they do the dance,
and they spin on the chair.
Oh, shit.
I can't believe it.
I'm going to get fucking crushed in this round.
I thought I was going to get way deeper into it before.
No.
Because there's a song called Sign.
Do you remember how that one goes?
Maybe.
No.
Easy Street.
I know that one.
Easy Street.
I think I'm gonna like it here
you're never
fully dressed
without a smile
it doesn't go like that
you're singing it
oh Sandy
there's a song about Sandy
Grease
yeah
it's a hard knock life
but that
if you said that we all would have got it.
Yeah, that would have been, well, I don't know.
Then the game would be over.
Tomorrow, that's a famous one from that one.
Right, perfect.
Little Girls.
I used to be scared of that film.
I was scared of Albert Finney in it.
Wait, you know he plays a character
who's benevolent and nice.
No, he's not. He's Daddy Warbucks.
He's scary and he's got issues and he doesn't love her at first. Oh, that's true nice and doesn't no he's not he's Daddy Warbucks he's scary and he's like
got you know
issues
and he doesn't
love her at first
oh that's true
he doesn't love her at first
yeah that's the reason
to be scared
I was confused
Daddy Warbucks
and Fatty Arbuckle
which I shouldn't
because one's benevolent
yeah
one's a lot nicer
than the other one
We Got Annie
was the last song
I was going to
mention by name
because then you'd all
yell out Annie
of course.
But you got it right away.
Great job, Tess.
Sorry about that.
Holy shit.
Yeah, you should feel proud about it.
Extra points for singing it.
But here's the weird thing about that movie.
Did you like the little girl who played Annie, Eileen Quinn?
You know what?
She's probably the weakest thing in it overall, I would say.
Yeah, I like the little girl that sings You're Never Fully Dressed Out
with the little
black sort of fringe
sort of hair.
I like,
what's her,
Carol Burnett
is like the best thing
kind of in it,
surely.
But this poor little girl,
Eileen Quinn,
I don't even know
if she's ever worked again,
she won a Razzie
for that movie.
That seems really uncool.
That's really mean.
Why give a fucking kid
a Razzie
when there's adults
that are probably
in the same category
that they probably
suck just as much
and they're adults
and there's no excuse.
But that's why
she hasn't worked again.
Maybe.
Wow.
That's like,
hey pumpkin,
you want to be in a movie?
Yay!
You suck!
Like that's fucking,
oh my god.
And they gave her the Razzie
for best supporting actress.
The movie's called Annie.
Oh, that's,
oh my god. I think that's... Oh, my God.
I think that explains why we haven't seen her in anything since.
Yeah.
Poor girl.
Poor, poor girl.
All right, let's play another game.
Let's play ABCD's Nuts, you guys.
Do it.
Yeah, this is...
Suck it.
This is a game where it's a spelling game.
We're going to go through a couple of words and spell them.
And when I go from person to person, I'll give you a letter.
The next letter in that word, all you got to do is name any movie that starts with that letter.
Sounds easier than it is, strangely enough.
And then if you match the movie I wrote down ahead of time then you automatically
win this game
wow
shit
and since Tess won
the last game
we're going to start
with her
and then we'll go
to Greg
and then to Graham
I don't really understand
but just go
I'll try
you're going to be alright
because I'm going to
walk you through it
okay good
we're going to spell
baby Hitler
it's all in the news
lately
that somebody said to Jeb Bush would you kill baby Hitler if you had the chance Hitler. It's all in the news lately.
That somebody said to Jeb Bush,
would you kill baby Hitler if you had the chance?
And he said, yes.
And it's like, what kind of crackpot is going to just take somebody's word?
Yeah, this baby's going to... He's going to be in a lot of trouble someday.
Let's kill him.
I saw someone on Twitter
then put, would you go back in time and kill
your dad to save the 500,000 Iraqis that were killed?
Oh, that you fucking moan at.
Baby Hitler.
So the first letter, of course, is B in Baby Hitler.
So just name any movie that begins with the letter B, Tess.
Well, I'll just say Bringing Up Baby then.
That's a great way to play it.
Thank you. I love it, because I went with bringing up baby then. That's a great way to play it. Thank you.
I love it
because I went with
baby's day out.
I could have done baby boom.
There's no reason
to keep guessing.
Sorry.
There is another B coming up.
I'll save that one.
Okay.
A is your letter, Greg.
Amelie.
Okay.
You pronounced it so great
that I started thinking
I began with an E or a Y
I saw it at the Man's Chinese Theater
It's a great movie
I love that, Emily
I went with Adam's Family Values
Because it features baby Pugsley
And he's a baby with a mustache
So he's one of my favorite babies ever
Graham The next letter is a B, of course Baby's Day Out with a mustache. So he's one of my favorite babies ever. Graham,
the next letter
is a B, of course.
Baby's day out.
Oh.
You think I just
put it on there twice?
Oh, did someone
say that already?
That's what I said
was what I picked
for the first B.
Wow.
Is that the one
that's got the amazing
sequence where it goes
up on the, like,
you know,
the building site
and the baby keeps moving?
The baby goes through
all sorts of crazy shit
that would give the parents
a heart attack
if they saw any of it.
But it's baby's day out, so the parents aren't around.
He's got to go out.
Yeah, and then eventually the baby
lights Joe Mantegna's balls on fire
with a Bic lighter.
It's a bad home alone.
Yeah.
B, Graham.
Baby's day out.
Okay.
No, all right.
You can stick with that.
Bridget Jones' Diary.
Oh, nice.
I went with Baby Mama.
The next letter is Y, Tess.
For me?
Yeah.
Oh, shit.
Y is, oh, fuck.
What words begin with Y?
You.
Yeah, there's tons of movies that begin with the word you. You. No, I'm just trying to think of words that begin with Y? You. Yeah, there's tons of movies that begin with the word you.
No, I'm just trying to think of words that begin with Y.
There's a Bond movie that begins with it.
A Bond movie that begins with it?
Yeah.
Oh, You Only Live Twice.
There you go.
I went with young adult.
Because that's what baby Hitler is.
Oh, I see.
Young adult.
Right.
See, now I'm young Frankenstein. Can I have that instead? Nope. I mean, you can. It Ah, I see. You're a young adult. Right. See, now I'm the young Frankenstein.
Can I have that instead?
Nope.
I mean, you can.
It doesn't matter.
It doesn't change anything, really.
H, Greg.
Happy Gilmore.
There you go.
I went with a movie from 1943 called Hitler, Dead or Alive.
That Letter Molden did not like.
I, Graham.
How about Isle of Dr. Moreau?
Oh.
Hello.
Critical success.
Did you say isle or island?
Island.
Island.
Also, I think it's the island.
The island.
The island. I, the island? The island. The island.
I am the island of Dr. Mullah.
Sticking with the Hitler thing, I went with Inglourious Bastards.
Oh.
Okay.
So your next letter is T, Tess, which really opens up the field for you because there's
lots of movies that begin with the.
Tree of Life, whatever that talent one was. I didn't enjoy. That's called Tree of Life, that talent one was
I didn't enjoy
that's called
Tree of Life right
is it
yeah
you didn't like that
Tree of Life
I love Tree of Life
people are so into it
it's about
you know
no I just was
spanking a few
what's her name
what
I did like Brad Pitt
in it
I thought Brad Pitt
was great in it
it's called Tree of Life
was it Trees of Life
but Brad Pitt's not in those scenes
where there's dinosaurs.
Jesus Christ.
It was like a nature program that was
not very interesting. Maybe it's about
people that are super into it have
kids or something? Is that why you liked it?
It's about grace. It's about that
sort of
ephemeral, whether or not you
believe in God or not, it's about these moments
in life that transcend.
And to me,
as a deeper spiritual person
than the other panelists,
I think it just appealed to me
for whatever reason.
Like Benjamin Button,
sort of.
Right.
That was a curious case.
Do we have any Bs left?
It's a curious case.
It was really odd,
that case.
It was like,
what is going on with this guy?
Like, are there even scenes in that movie
where anybody's concerned about what's going on
with Benjamin Button?
Everybody's like, yeah, there's this kid growing backwards.
Let's not dwell on it.
I'd still watch that.
Just try to meet up with him in the right parts of his life.
Everybody's different.
Just let him live.
For tea, I went with
The Hand That Rocks
the Cradle.
Oh, I talked about
that today, in fact.
How weird.
Really?
I talked about
Carrie Ells doing
an accent in it,
a British accent,
even though he is British.
Who?
Carrie Ells.
Anyway, don't worry.
It's fine.
Move on.
Carrie Ells?
What did I say?
Whatever.
I've never known
exactly how to say it.
Exactly.
But he's British in that?
No, he is actually a British man.
But we think of him now as American,
but he's actually born in England.
I don't think of him much at all.
I do.
I didn't even see Saw.
See Saw.
You don't think about the Princess Brides
once a week or so?
Okay, that'll do, pig.
Okay.
No, that's not the line from that movie. What does he say? As you wish. As you wish, that'll do, pig. Okay. No, that's not the line from that movie.
What does he say?
As you wish.
That'll do, pig.
That'll do, pig.
That's how he gets the love of his life back,
by calling his favorite lady a pig.
Oh.
We should do something on YouTube with that.
Oh, God.
L, Greg.
Little movie that begins with L.
Little Shop of Horrors.
Oh, you were so close.
Little Women.
Little Fuckers.
Little Fuckers.
Little Fuckers.
E, Graham.
I have an E one, but I'm trying to think of whatever your baby-themed E is.
It's either Hitler or baby themed.
Think of movies that have
Hitler or babies.
Oh, we're supposed to have themed it.
I totally missed that.
You kind of figure it out as we go, or you
don't. Either way,
it's fun for me.
Yeah.
Is it like...
What letter you are?
What was that one?
Eagle's Nest?
There's no way you're going to get this right.
Let me just lay this out now,
and this seems like a mind fuck,
but I've got R,
and I know what it is,
so get it.
You need to get it.
All right, everybody's all American.
There you go.
There's an E1.
Okay, I went with embryo.
Oh.
Okay.
Holy shit.
Yeah, I went really deep on the baby theme.
Wow.
You've got an R.
Do you want...
I've got an R that is the right answer.
Did anybody see embryo?
Nobody?
You've got to see it for no other reason.
There is a scene...
Oh, wait.
You're R.
Yeah, she's R. Oh, I don't have it. There is a scene... Oh, wait, you're R. Yeah, she's R.
There's a scene where there's a big...
Hang on, I'm talking embryo for a second.
There's a scene where there's a big dog
that picks up a poodle in its mouth,
shakes it until it's dead,
and then drops it in a hedge.
In a movie called Embryo.
Please tell me that's the movie poster no the movie poster is
pro-choice do you have an r movie test well i do now and then we'll see what greg's is oh he
whispered it to you well he gave it to me and i you know i obviously would have said this anyway
because it's baby related and begins with R, and it's raising Arizona.
That is good.
Is it right?
I could do you one better, though.
Oh.
Rosemary's baby.
Oh!
That's a Hitler baby.
That is a total Hitler baby.
Such a Hitler baby. The ultimate Hitler baby.
Oh, my God.
Yeah.
That was super fun.
Nobody won.
Wait, I...
I think Greg won, really.
Deep down, yeah.
Yeah, inside.
He had the best guesses.
There was a moment of confidence I showed.
Yeah.
I really thought,
oh, he came up with Rosemary's Baby.
He's pulling it.
And I didn't understand it
until literally the last beat of the game.
I had the wrong letter, so...
Yeah.
But both great films.
Let's admit.
Good stuff.
Let's just say that.
Really?
Really.
Baby Makes Three would have been my next letter.
What?
B, right?
Hitler.
Hitler Baby?
Baby Hitler?
Do you want to go back around Baby Hitler baby
I'm getting a contact high
From your crowd
Stop putting it on them
That's not what this show's about
It's very straight edge people
Come to this one
This isn't my weed show
Where we don't have an audience.
But did you guys,
has anybody heard last night's episode of the show?
Oh, okay, cool.
All right, so
we're going to play Last Man Stanton now.
And nothing?
Nothing?
And this is a game where we get an actor or actress.
I like to play along in this game.
And we all take turns naming movies that person was in.
If you can't think of one, you're out.
Out.
But you get to go first, Tess.
And then we'll go to Graham.
Come on, Tess.
Okay.
Because I like switching the order around.
That's right.
People write to me on Twitter all the time.
I've got a perfect name for Last Man Stanton tonight,
and I try to pick somebody just fairly randomly.
Is JP Colon 84 in the house?
Oh, I thought that was the name of the actor.
I was like, shit, I don't know any of those films.
Yes, yes.
The films of JP Colon.
All right.
Born in 1984. He sounds like The films of J.P. Cullen. All right. Born in 1984.
He sounds like a gay porn star.
Yeah.
J.P. Cullen.
Baby's Day In.
Yeah, let's see.
Hot Flip the Musical.
That would have been bad.
No, it's this fellow over here.
It's his name
and he's going to suggest somebody.
Also, let me see your name tag
for a second.
He made a very clever name tag
because he made
the Hunger James.
And then also it's a...
It's got donuts
inside, right?
Oh, there we go.
You want a donut, Greg?
Yeah, I'll take a donut.
There you go.
I'm going to take this one and throw it at that guy.
He just has a good catch.
I'm okay.
I like to throw them hard.
All right.
Right here.
Nice toss.
Good hands.
Come on, nerd.
Good hands.
Two hands.
You don't bat it down.
You grab it.
You don't fight it.
Jesus Christ.
Do you want to do one more, Graham?
Yeah, I'll toss another one.
All right.
Someone get a hard on.
Oh!
Yeah. Let's ring toss it. All right, someone get a heart on. Oh! Yeah.
Let's ring toss it.
Yeah, who's got a ring toss?
All right, dude.
Back row.
Let's look at that.
See that?
That's how it's done.
See how everybody did it?
Good job.
Look at me, friend.
Get your fucking eyes front.
Right here.
Thanks for coming out.
We appreciate you standing around.
It's always good to have you guys here.
He ate it off the floor?
Oh, my God.
Yeah.
Syphilis.
Syphilis.
I'm sorry.
Oh, there's nothing worse than floor syphilis
that you get from eating floor food.
Oh, God.
Yeah, donuts off the floor.
Now your girlfriend's not going to kiss you,
but that's cool.
She's like,
I don't do it.
You guys can find
the weirdest shit
to get offended at.
Do you know that?
You guys are like,
wait a minute.
You know,
it's a small theater.
It's 99 people,
so there's probably
10 people outside
that didn't get in
that, you know,
would love all of it.
There's 10 people outside
that would have been awesome.
The people who got here late
are probably up for anything
and won't get offended
but people are here early
they have specific
entertainment needs.
That's right.
That makes sense.
I get it.
They don't need you
bringing up all this bullshit.
Quick question for J...
I just spit
because I'm eating a donut. Quick question J.P I just spit. Because I'm eating a donut.
Quick question, J.P. Cullen.
What films have you been in?
Not that fresh.
When did you purchase
the Dunkin' Donuts?
This afternoon.
This afternoon?
All right.
But they were probably
a batch from this morning.
Right.
Probably afternoon donuts.
You drove far to get here?
Oh, wow.
Listen to that guilt trip.
I drove kind of far.
Sorry they're not warming up.
Well, I know
because it's really hard
to find a Dunkin' Donuts.
So I guess you had
to buy it far away
and then import it.
Did you know
there's areas in Boston
where there's a Dunkin' Donuts
on all four corners?
It's like Starbucks
and other places.
All right.
Let's go to the Dunkin'.
Give me one light
and sweet and a Cruella.
It's like Starbucks in other places.
All right. Let's go to the Dunk Kid.
Give me one light and sweet and a crella.
So JP colon 84 has got a perfect suggestion for us.
He's going to lay it on me right now.
Lay it on me.
Here we go.
Patrick Stewart.
Wow.
Well, oh my God.
Really?
Give the donuts back, guys.
That's...
That's one movie.
That's my weakest link.
All right, well, let's try it.
I think it's going to be over pretty fast.
Let's give it a whirl, see what happens.
Tess, start us off.
What, X-Men?
Which one?
I mean, can I...
Well, I mean... Let's divide them up a bit. I'll do the first one.
She's going
with just X-Men. I've just gone with
Charles Xavier in the first one.
To Star Trek The Next Generation.
Well, you can have a few Star Treks, can't we?
Yeah, you better be careful, buddy.
We need an exact title.
Well, I mean,
it's pretty obvious. JP's bragging about how hard this one is.
I don't think that's what we were looking for,
is one that's this difficult.
What was the one with the Borgs?
You got two major franchises to choose between.
But it is getting the words after the colon.
Star Trek's the next generation.
Whether or not it's got a fucking number in there or not.
My girlfriend's a huge Star Trek fan.
She's very mad right now.
She's annoyed with you.
She's not even listening.
She's just sensing that you're fucking up.
She's here.
Oh, she is?
She was here. You came not... Oh, she is? Oh, I didn't know she was here.
I didn't see...
She's got secret powers.
You came in alone.
I can't, you know.
Why is this so difficult?
That's weird, isn't it?
Because he's like,
in England,
I can do some stage plays
with films.
That's harder
with Patrick Stewart.
Sir Patrick Stewart.
You could name
some of his stage plays?
All right, here,
I'll just do this one.
I'll just do this one.
Jeffrey.
He was in the, there was a play
called Jeffrey
that was made into a film.
Made into a film.
Patrick Stewart's in it.
There's a great scene in it
where he plays a gay guy.
Not Peter at all.
You're not thinking
Peter at all.
No, he's in it.
Okay.
Yeah.
It's a guy from Wayne's
who's the lead.
Bullshit.
Get it on your fucking phone.
Get it on your phone.
I swear to God.
He's in a movie
called Jeffrey.
It's just Jeffrey.
Welcome to Doug Loves Theater.
Yeah. J-E-F-F-R-E-Y.
Jeffrey.
Jeffrey? Yeah. Jeff.
You know who was in that? Jeffrey Ross was in that.
Oh, that guy. I swear to Christ.
There's a great scene where he's like a gay
fashion guy and there's a waiter that comes up
and Patrick Stewart goes, oh, your earring.
What fun. Last year.
And it's like, oh, it's a big slam.
It's hilarious.
But it is.
Hey, Doug.
Hey, it's Ryan.
Oh, Ryan in the booth.
Hey, I looked up Jeffrey, and Patrick Stewart is in Jeffrey.
OK.
Thank you.
Is Jeffrey Ross in Jeffrey?
In your face, bitch.
And isn't also
Leif Garrett in it?
Okay.
I will go with...
I'll say Star Trek
Generations.
All of them.
No, just Star Trek Generations.
It's a very specific title.
I'm going to go with...
Star Trek.
I'm out of the game.
Oh, no.
Yeah.
Tess?
I've never seen a Star Trek movie.
What's the second X-Men?
Well, you've probably never seen Hitler either,
but you've heard of him.
What?
What is it?
You know what his first...
You know what his full name is.
Yeah, he's got it.
His first movie is awesome.
Mein Kampf.
Fucking beautiful.
They made a movie of that?
No, actually, that was his first.
No, his first movie actually was Trying for the Will,
the Lenny Rufenstahl directed.
A little bit of nerd trivia for you.
How about that, kids?
It's a Nazi propaganda movie.
Isn't it weird, though, that Patrick Stewart has,
because, like, he, I only know Patrick Stewart
as, like, old Patrick Stewart.
Like, he must have, Is Jeffrey quite an old film?
No, it came out in the 90s.
I'm just thinking, I think of him,
and I think really his career has been in the last 10, on film.
I know him just from two massive behemoth Trek and X-Men.
So that's all you've got to do is name any of those movies.
Yeah, but I just can't remember the title.
So X-Men, it's not Origins, is it? Is he in Wolverine? of those movies. Yeah, but I can't, I just can't remember the title of the, like they're called,
so X-Men,
it's not Origins,
is it?
Is he in Wolverine?
Maybe he's in Wolverine.
I'm sure he's in Wolverine.
He's got to have a cameo in Wolverine.
He's got to be in Wolverine,
yeah.
Even if he isn't,
I'm going to give you
credit for it.
I'm going to give you
credit for it
even if he's not in Wolverine.
Thank you.
I think he shows up
at some point
sure
yeah
even if on a video message
like a Skype call
or something
yes exactly
he does Skype
into Wolverine
hear that
doot doot
music
and then
hey Wolverine
what's up mate
you know
and it's
great
poor connection
yeah it's like
an awkward sequence
because he gets
interrupted while
he's making love
to Magneto
and then they have to Skype Graham Yeah, it's like an awkward sequence because he gets interrupted while he's making love to Magneto. Yeah, it's really weird.
And then they have to Skype.
Graham?
X-Men First Class.
That's it!
Boom!
That's the one.
Is that the third one?
Oh, shit.
Because it's when they're all young.
Yeah.
He's in it.
He's in it.
He's definitely in it.
Yeah, that one scene.
No, wait.
I'm sure he's in it. That scene where he's definitely in it yeah that one scene no wait I'm sure he's in it
that scene where he's gay
and Wolverine has an earring
and he's like
last year
and it's like
yeah
everybody gets it
the one he's
he's definitely in
X-Men Days of Future Past
right
which is what I said
oh you know what
he can't be in it
because isn't
isn't Fassbender him in it
or McAvoy
isn't McAvoy
but they always flash back McAvoy's here McAvoy? Isn't McAvoy? But they always flash back.
McAvoy's him.
You hear his voice
and he's like,
hello.
I'm adopted
from future past
or whatever.
He doesn't even get his,
he gets his cool wheelchair
at the end.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's true.
Okay, there must be
a flashback.
It's James McAvoy,
it's not.
Right, but then
Patrick Stewart comes in.
No, he doesn't.
No, I don't think so. I believe Garrett Will's a man and that's like. Right, but then Patrick Stewart comes in. No, he doesn't. Dave Garrett
wills a man
and that's like.
Come on,
we've got to think
of another film
that isn't one of these.
You have to specifically
because it's between
you and me now
for the win.
Gandhi.
Do you know what?
In my head,
I was thinking.
I think that was Ben Kingsley.
Nah,
it's the same guy.
Hello,
mate.
Oh,
getting away from England.
Has Patrick Stewart
been knighted?
Is he Sir Patrick? He knighted is he Sir Patrick
he's Sir
totally Sir Patrick Stewart
but we don't call him that here
for some reason
no but it's only
Sir Ben Kingsley
is the one that
wants to be called
Sir Ben Kingsley
you have to call him
well like a lot of them
like being called Sir
but like Michael Caine
probably doesn't mind
not being called Sir
I don't think Patrick
minds as much either
yeah they're cool guys
yeah
but what fucking film
has he been in
that's not a franchise film
I can't think of any
you know what he's in
what I think he's in oh I'm not that confident though but I think he been in that's not a franchise film? I can't think of any. You know what he's in?
What?
I think he's in,
oh,
I'm not that confident though,
but I think he's in
Kenneth Branagh's Hamlet,
but I could be really wrong.
I think you're wrong.
Fuck.
No,
he's not.
Yeah,
I don't think he is.
He's got to be in
like a shape.
You're thinking of
Jack Lemmon.
No,
I'm not.
He's Polonius.
Jack Lemmon.
I mean,
you're thinking of
Walter Moutown.
No,
Walter Moutown.
They're both in that movie.
Really?
Yeah. Yeah, he's Polonius, isn't Jack Lemmon? No, he's not. They're in it. Robin Williams is in it too. I think, I mean you're thinking of Walter Moutown no Walter Moutown they're both in that movie really yeah
yeah he's Polonius
isn't Jack Lemmon
no he's not
they're in it
Robin Williams is in it too
I think
is he
and Kiefer
Branagh's
Branagh's has a lot of
famous people in it
yes no I know
that's why I just
picked Patrick Stewart
for that
Sir Patrick Stewart
it was a good try
thank you
let me think of another
one real quick
god it's so funny I can't think of the names of the another one real quick.
God, it's so funny.
I can't think of the names of the later Star Treks.
I know all the early ones.
And then...
Star Trek Spring Break.
Anyway, I win anyway.
So I'm just going to say
Star Trek Back to College.
Did they call... I think X-Men 2 was just called X2?
Yeah.
Okay, so that's that one.
X-Men United?
X2, X-Men United.
See, I fucked it up, so I didn't get the full title.
You're out.
Yeah, but he's a tough one.
That is a tough one.
He doesn't have like a giant, he doesn't have like 30 films.
And the ones he does have,
the titles are tricky to
remember. Except for
Jeffrey. But thank God you came up with Jeffrey.
And don't forget Jeffrey 2.
The Shining.
And is Jeffrey an origin story?
Yeah, Jeffrey is an origin story.
Alright, let me hear the ones we missed,
you guys. Men in tights. Robin Hood. Yeah, yeah. First job, first job. All right, let me hear the ones we missed, you guys. Come on. Robin Hood, Men in Tights.
Men in Tights.
Oh, God, of course.
Robin Hood, Men in Tights.
First Contact.
First Contact.
Conspiracy Theory.
Gibson.
He's in Conspiracy Theory.
Yes.
The Last Stand, X3.
X3.
X-Men 3.
L.A. Story.
L.A. Story.
I remember him in that.
First Contact.
The what?
He's a Mater D in L.A. Story. Oh, I don't remember Contact. The what? He's a maitre d' in L.A. Story.
Oh, I don't remember.
At a fancy...
Who is he in First Contact?
He's a maitre d' at a not fancy restaurant.
Oh.
You know how they have maitre d's at restaurants that aren't fancy.
He plays Dune.
That was a...
What happened?
What?
Dune.
Dune?
He's in Dune?
Yeah.
What's he play in Dune?
Bernie Heller.
I love that you knew the name I didn't recognize what you said
Star Trek Nemesis
But you know what I'm relieved
that it's not like everyone's had lines
Normally when we play this game everybody's yelling out to it
but everyone's on the same page as us
He hasn't done enough
to justify it
He's in more films than Patrick Stewart JP in my mind on the same page as us. Yeah. He hasn't done enough to justify it. So good job, JP.
I think that he's in more films
than Patrick Stewart.
JP, in my mind.
Probably is.
But now I want to...
JP Cullen
in...
Graham?
X...
You've been spewing out
titles all night.
What a fun improv game.
JP Cullen in...
I don't know.
X-Trek.
X-Men on ice.
Frozen Steel.
Patrick Stewart.
Are you looking him up now?
Pick any car on the island,
go.
That's not a movie.
He was in,
he's been in movies
since 1975.
Well, not that many.
Yeah, he was in a movie back then with Glenda Jackson called Hedda.
And then he was in Excalibur, John Borman's classic.
Oh, wow.
And The Plague Dogs, which is an animated thing.
No.
Then he was in Dune, as mentioned.
And then Codename Emerald with Ed Harris.
The Doctor and the Details, Lady Jane. ed harris the doctor in the details lady jane life force he's in life force the great toby hooper's life force gunman the page master
there's jeffrey from 95 there it is your favorite film star trek first contact that was mentioned
conspiracy theory masterminds from 1997 whatever that is is. The Prince of Egypt, another animated thing.
Star Trek Insurrection, X-Men.
X-Men, X-Men, X-Men.
He was a voice in Jimmy Neutron, boy genius.
Star Trek Nemesis.
Oh, X2, it's just X2 according to Leonard.
So I got that right.
Oh, this is an anime.
At first I was like,
why would he be in something called Steam Boy?
Wow.
He was also a voice.
He's done a lot of voices.
He was a voice in Chicken Little.
He was in The Game of Their Lives.
X-Men Last Stand.
He was a voice in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
That was just the initials, TMNT.
How do we not get that?
And he was also a voice in Gnomeo and Juliet.
Ah.
You see, Shakespeare.
Shakespeare.
Patrick fucking Stewart.
Well, that was rough,
but you won, Tess.
You did it.
No, I didn't win.
You pulled it out.
Well, with Wolverine.
Yeah.
With Wolverine,
which we haven't even verified
for sure,
but I'm satisfied.
You know what?
We don't know for sure.
It didn't come up
on his IMDb then,
did it?
No, well,
I used the Leonard Maltin app
and it's a dead app,
so Wolverine's
probably too recent.
Let me try it on IMDb.
Yeah, because I don't
want to take the prize
if it's not actually my...
He's in the post-credit
sequence of Wolverine.
Thank you.
Oh, listen to that guy.
Thank you.
He's in the post-credit
sequence.
So that's in the film.
Somebody sticks around.
Somebody stays in
a seat like a loser.
I waited until the end of the credits
of Spectre just thinking maybe something will happen
at the end.
I have to see the words James
Bond will return.
Because they put that at the end every time.
My IMDB is not working so I'm going to trust
this guy knows everything.
But if he's in the post-credits, then he's in the film.
What's that?
He played Scrooge in the Christmas Carol.
Oh, Christmas Carol.
Oh, is he?
Oh, yeah.
A made-for-TV one.
Doesn't count, then.
Does not count.
You just got out-nerded.
This isn't Doug Love's made-for-TV movies.
If it was, we'd talk about Brian's song exclusively.
First movie I cried at.
It's a great movie.
Oh, I still cry at it every time.
It's the saddest fucking thing.
It's all just set up just to make you sad.
And that song is a very good song there that they play.
Well, they're black and white, and they're friends.
Yeah, it's a real story.
And then Charles Durning, doesn't he play George
Hallis, the coach of the Bears?
I bet you it's
not him.
I don't think it's Charles Durning.
I think it's Jack Warden.
Oh, you're right. It is Jack Warden.
James Caan is John
Cappelletti.
I just made that up.
Yeah.
Oh, you did?
No, is that right?
He plays Brian.
He plays the guy that just answered a question.
Yeah.
And Gail Sayers is the other guy.
I have no idea what you're talking about.
That's American football.
It's a boy movie.
No, don't say that.
Don't say that.
Is it a TV movie in America?
TV movie, but it's the one that men cry at.
It's the first and only movie that men cry at.
When was it made?
Like recently?
No, probably 1972.
Have you seen...
Yeah, it's old and it doesn't hold up at all.
Like when you watch it, it's very...
We don't really have TV movies at home like you do.
Yeah, no, you have miniseries.
Yes.
And regular series that are short.
Yeah, we don't have...
That are only like four episodes or whatever. Yeah, one hour. Yeah, no, you have miniseries. Yes. And regular series that are short. Yeah, we don't have Mayfair. That are only like four episodes or whatever.
Yeah, one hour.
Yeah, yeah.
Did you, Greg, did you see Marley and Me?
No.
That's a tough one to not cry.
That's a cry.
Yeah?
That's a cry one.
That's a tough one.
Okay.
I'll watch it.
Should I watch it with my 15-year-old son?
Oh, yeah.
It'll be great.
It'll be great.
He needs to cry.
You'll get to see each other at your most emotionally vulnerable and probably not
speak again for a few years.
If he cries first,
do you punch him?
That's a fun game. Let's see who cries
first. Oh shit, they're
taking Marley to the doctor.
You keep crying, I'm going to buy you a
small shirt just like your mother.
You remember how she cried.
All right, where's Nick
to get this prize bag?
There you go, buddy.
Congratulations.
All right, wow.
It's the heaviest prize bag ever.
I gotta move,
so I'm getting rid
of a lot of stuff.
You're moving?
Yeah, yeah.
Did you buy a place?
No.
No, no.
I'll tell you all about it later.
Okay.
If you need more paper, I've got more posters.
Yeah, yeah.
You have even more still?
No, but...
There's a few behind you there.
I can get you some.
There's three hanging off the front, Doug.
Yeah, yeah.
You need wall stuff.
Yeah.
And now you got a new pillow, so...
No, I don't.
That's not mine.
No, that's mine.
I don't need wall stuff
Is there a shithead on the back of this, Michelle?
No, I brought the right one
Okay, you can just tell me one, tell me quietly
Right now
No, from your seat, don't come over here
Just say it quietly
The mics won't pick it up
Okay, that was really loud
What'd you learn to whisper? Alec Baldwin?
Is that a Friday night
late show line
that you use on the road?
Yeah, what?
Is that your Friday night
late show line?
I've never said that before,
but Alec Baldwin
always sounds like
he's whispering
even in scenes
when he's yelling.
All right,
so I got that one,
and Graham,
is there a shithead
on the back of yours?
Yes, sir. And what do you got to plug Graham
