Starting point is 00:00:00 Doug hates candy wrappers screaming baby sticky seeds with 50 azipop or kernels in his teeth There's still not one that he won't see Cause Doug Loves Movies Hey everybody Welcome to yet another Doug Loves Movies taped at the UCB Theater in Los Angeles right before Comedy Death Ray, the weekly Tuesday night show that is so popular I'm able to steal that audience from my podcast because they'd rather come in and sit down than stand outside on Franklin
Starting point is 00:00:38 in the freezing cold California weather. There's a guy with the baggy shorts in the front row. I always appreciate that. It's like a nut festival the entire time. I'm on stage. I love it. Couple things off the top. I'm on Twitter now, you guys.
Starting point is 00:00:58 So if you want to hear things like, or hear things, if you want to read things like, you know, who my want to read things like, you know, who my guests are and stuff like that and little inside information about the show, just follow me on Twitter, and don't be disappointed if I don't follow you back. I saw the movie Taken over the weekend,
Starting point is 00:01:20 and I'm here to warn you that if you don't see that movie, it will find you and it will kill you. I got to interview some NFL players for VH1 for a segment that ended up being like 20 seconds long on the Pepsi Smash Super Bowl bash. And I was really disappointed because I was at this big media day event with all the players from the two teams in the Super Bowl. And I asked some really obnoxious questions in front of a lot of professional reporters.
Starting point is 00:01:52 And if I was talking to the Cardinals, I wore a Steelers jersey and vice versa. Nobody seemed to mind, really. They were just kind of whatever. But these are my two favorite questions I asked people that were about to play in the super bowl um if you this was in tampa of course i said if you lose are you gonna go to disney world anyway because it's like right over there and i pointed and then uh my other favorite question that i could not get anyone to answer honestly was which is better, sex in the city of the movie or Mamma Mia? They're all like,
Starting point is 00:02:30 I didn't see it. I don't know what you're talking about. We get all serious and mad. And all right, let's bring out our guests. And I'm very excited about this epi of I Love Movies. I got a great Leonard Maltin game all fired up and prepared and ready to go. But first, let's bring these two people out and talk movies a little bit. This first lady you might recognize here in Los Angeles and broadcasts throughout the country.
Starting point is 00:03:01 And you can hear it online as well. She is the news person on the Adam Carolla radio show. Ladies and gentlemen, give it up for Teresa Strasser is here. One of my favorite people. Come on over and have a seat, Teresa. Thank you. I hope it's a good epi. It's going to be a good epi, I think. You won't have to... Oh, yeah, that's a good idea.
Starting point is 00:03:25 Thanks. She took the microphone out like a professional. I've been sitting there leaning into it like a weirdo. And the other guest this evening, it's a very exciting time. I remember, like, years ago, he and I would be out on the road together. I remember one time we were in Northern California, and during the day we took his car and we went and saw New Jack City. And now I am proud to say that he is the author of a book
Starting point is 00:03:54 that has been turned into a movie, and we'll talk to him about it. It's coming out this Friday. Podcast might appear later, but you'll still probably know the movie I'm talking about. The co-writer of the book, He's Just Not That Into You, ladies and gentlemen, let's hear it for Greg Barrett! It's here!
Starting point is 00:04:16 GB! Come on out. Oh, he brought a magazine to read in case it gets boring. No, I bought O. I read O. Who's on the cover this month? It's a white dude.
Starting point is 00:04:31 It's a really weird month. Oh, okay. I bought a Q. That is weird. Why isn't she on the cover anymore? Did you guys know a magazine called Q? Oh, it's Q. What is Q?
Starting point is 00:04:40 It's Q. Well, who's this guy? Is that Q? That's the guy from the... I was so impressed Backstage he was reading And I thought He really does understand women
Starting point is 00:04:50 He's reading Oh Is this Bond's new gadget guy Q It's Q Yeah Oprah has changed her name To Queen
Starting point is 00:04:57 Oh okay It's about time I've been waiting Well that's cool So you carry around A Q magazine No I bought it down the street and it's like $9. I was like, I don't want to leave it. $9.25, yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:09 That's a lot to read about bands I don't even like. Don't leave it. Just hang on to it. Do you like the Garfield Killers? I like his jacket. Well, he asks the important questions like, are we human or are we dancers? Yeah. Did they ever figure it out?
Starting point is 00:05:24 There's no answer, but it rhymes with dancers. I think that's why or are we dancers? Yeah. Did they ever figure it out? What is the answer? Have you figured it out? I don't think there's no answer but it rhymes with dancers. I think we're both. I think that's why. I don't want to be dancer. I know. Because you can't separate
Starting point is 00:05:32 the dancer from the dance. I don't even know what it's hard to do. I don't know what it means either. I was going to say something about Blitzen but we went in a whole different direction.
Starting point is 00:05:40 Those are reindeer. They're reindeer. From Christmas? Yeah. From Christmas. You know, from reindeer. From Christmas? Yeah. Fuck you. From Christmas. From Christmas. From the fucking holiday Christmas thing?
Starting point is 00:05:50 I'm a Jew and I know Blitzen. Yeah. Yeah, you do. Now, first of all, Greg, I had an epiphany today because I think that the porn version of he's just not that into you should just be he's in you. He's just not that into you should just be he's in you he's just in you and then for theresa in case they decide to go ethnic with it he's just not that into jews would be a way to go i like it yeah so wait how does that one go so that so they're naked and then he asks if she's a jew. And then she says, I am.
Starting point is 00:06:25 And then he goes, fuck this bullshit. And he just walks off with his heart on. And then another dude goes, MySpace is booty call. Or whatever. No, it's a very specific genre. Oh, dude. But seriously, can we talk about...
Starting point is 00:06:40 I know you didn't write that line. It screams not a line written by Greg. You know what? Wordplay is fine with me. Yeah, but MySpace is the new booty call. It drives me crazy every time I see the trailer because that doesn't even make sense. How can it be?
Starting point is 00:06:55 That's like MySpace is the new kitchen appliance. What? That's one of those things that people just don't question. People go, that seems amusing. It doesn't. It isn't. And then you sit there through't question like people go that seems amusing it doesn't it isn't and then you sit there through the next scene
Starting point is 00:07:07 and go how is it wait a booty call is when you go to someone's house and fuck them in the morning so if I ask you to be a friend
Starting point is 00:07:14 isn't it maybe that's the problem maybe if you'd have known what a booty call was this thing wouldn't have gotten so messed up you guys played the telephone game
Starting point is 00:07:23 it's morning sex oh it is Not morning but You know like early morning I masturbate to MySpace in the morning Mine were mornings Mine were early mornings Yeah no
Starting point is 00:07:32 I like cocaine But it's still It's the call Booty call is the call To try to get the hook up Late at night Or in the AM If you like to do it
Starting point is 00:07:40 It's not just Well it usually is the AM Right Because it's after It's after or so. Technically, it's the morning. Right. But it's not a booty call if it doesn't happen.
Starting point is 00:07:49 So if it's just a call, that's not a booty call. Oh, I see. Is the phone call the booty call? No, the booty call is when you do the... Otherwise, it's just a fucking drunk phone call. Yeah. It's a drunk dial. Yeah, and so that's what...
Starting point is 00:07:58 I guess people do that with MySpace. They drunkenly say, hey, I'd like to come over, but chances are the person's not going to see us on the next day. But that's not even what that joke's about. That joke just doesn't, it just happens. It's almost like a joke
Starting point is 00:08:12 written for a trailer where you go, we'll just say that and then we'll cut and then the cure will play. The gay Asian dude could say anything and we don't want to not laugh at it
Starting point is 00:08:23 because we don't want to feel like racists. Yeah, or homophobic racists. Yeah, if if you don't laugh you're a homophobic it's a new booty call and then you're like it's hilarious i love you asian guy that's gay also i love all love it all yeah so what about oh you didn't how do you how do you feel about the way the movie's being promoted in general
Starting point is 00:08:48 does it yeah I'm happy about it because because yeah they are promoting it I think it's going
Starting point is 00:08:53 to be popular and by the way I asked Greg what actor really was the voice of Greg Barron in the movie Jennifer Connelly
Starting point is 00:09:00 that's what he said Jennifer Connelly she speaks for you her character is your your attitude? She's the only one. Everyone in the movie is in a Ken Kwapis film.
Starting point is 00:09:09 That's the guy that directed it. And then she's sort of still in an Ang Lee movie. Like somehow her thing is dark and funny. It's fun. She did that in The Day They Rested Still. Yeah. In that movie, it's very serious. She was the funny character. Is that right?
Starting point is 00:09:24 I didn't see it. Obviously, no one else has either. I write my reviews and people always go, was it really that bad? And I go, did I really see it? No. Now, is there any chance
Starting point is 00:09:39 for a Marley resuscitation in He's Just Not That Into You? Does Jennifer Aniston have a dog? I didn't see it. No, she does. No, yeah, she does have a dog. In fact... So there you go. He's Just Not That Into You. Does Jennifer Aniston have a dog? I didn't see it. No, she does. No, yeah, she does have a dog. In fact... So there you go.
Starting point is 00:09:47 It's like a reincarnation situation. She comes down. I'm in... I have a... What I call a cameo. But it's a cam. It's like less than a cameo. It's a reaction shot.
Starting point is 00:09:57 And never was there... It is. And never was there a more unwarranted reaction shot. There's no need for it in the movie. It doesn't belong. It doesn't belong. It doesn't belong. And I can't act. And we did 15 takes of Jennifer Aniston comes down the aisle.
Starting point is 00:10:12 She's a guest at a wedding where she, unfortunately, her, you know, when they come down, you know, with the bridesmaid and the best, you know, groomsman. Her groomsman is a dog. Oh, yeah. She's walking a dog. And it's not Marley. Hang on. He's dead. It's's not Marley. He's dead. It's unexpected. It's unexpected.
Starting point is 00:10:29 You don't expect it to be a dog. It's great. The dog comes down. That was in the book, right? That was your advice. If you're going to get married, make sure there's a dog there. She comes down with a dog. I'm supposed to be surprised because I'm the officiant. I'm a dog. I'm supposed to be surprised because I'm the officiate.
Starting point is 00:10:46 I'm the priest. And so I'm supposed to be surprised. So they go, okay. But she's not there. It's a tracking shot. So go and they push in. And they go, action. And so I go, oh.
Starting point is 00:10:59 That's a good take. And there's a whole fucking ton of people there because it's a wedding thing. So there's guests and there's groomsmen and there's a whole fucking ton of people watching me not be able to be surprised 15 times in a row. And the director patiently going, okay, Greg, so you're surprised.
Starting point is 00:11:20 And I'm like, okay. And then it starts to get into this territory where I'm like, what the fuck is that? Are you you on fire it's just a dog so anyway okay and then I had a like a Christian Bale type oh you had a meltdown put the fucking light there asshole and then for four for five and a half minutes I beat you I fucking rip extra. I rip an extra to pieces. Don't look at me. I was going to say, you know, there's a story about Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman where who's the director?
Starting point is 00:11:52 Sidney Poitier? No, not Sidney Poitier. Sidney Pollack. Yes. Sidney Pollack. Sidney Poitier. The great Sidney Poitier. That's an easy mistake.
Starting point is 00:12:00 That's an easy mistake. Anyone can make that mistake. He wanted her to have a genuine look of surprise. So he had Richard Gere snap the necklace box in her hand. Wait, Sidney Pollack didn't direct it either. It was Gary Marshall. Thank you. Gary Marshall.
Starting point is 00:12:10 You're welcome. You know, sorry. Eventually, I was going to come up with it. Yeah, you were naming men who directed some movies. In the case of Portier, maybe not even. Was in a movie. He directed a couple. He directed a couple.
Starting point is 00:12:22 Richard mentioned it. The point is, Gary Marshall snapped the jewelry box on Julia Roberts' hand and she didn't know that was going to happen. And she did that big laugh
Starting point is 00:12:32 and that thing that made her So they should have done something to actually surprise you because that made Julia Roberts' whole career. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:38 They should have done something like threw some dog shit at you or something. And got a genuine reaction. You'd be like, oh man, first a dog shows up and then he curls around.
Starting point is 00:12:50 Like a monkey hurls his own feces at me and then jerks off. Different movie. Not funny. Is the movie a true ensemble in that they're all divided up somewhat equally or is it like the trailer where Jennifer Goodwin seems to be the main character? She's in it more, but yeah, it's pretty well divided up somewhat equally or is it like the trailer where jennifer goodwin seems to be like the the main she's in it more but yeah it's pretty well divided up yeah you know so like why aren't
Starting point is 00:13:09 they just running with aniston just had a huge hit why aren't they running with you know why aren't they pushing her in the to the forefront because that'd be false advertising yeah she's barely in she's not i don't think anybody worked more than four days oh really i mean it's really like there's a lot happening but it's's, you know, it was very, like they did it, it was a, I mean, they did it very inexpensively.
Starting point is 00:13:28 Did you meet Jennifer Aniston during your scene? I did not meet her during my scene. I had the opportunity to, but I didn't want to be like, they're like, you can go say hi.
Starting point is 00:13:35 I'm like, I'm not gonna, hey, I wrote a book. I don't, yeah. Now you're here. You don't, you don't. I made this happen with my mind. In show business,
Starting point is 00:13:44 you don't reach up. You let them reach down. You don't go, hey, I'm high from books. It gives you shit. She might have already, you know what? I'm with John, I'm sorry. I have all kinds of John Mayer thoughts in my head right now. I don't know Harry Marshall, but I know that.
Starting point is 00:13:59 I did ask her if her body was in Wonderland. And then I took a Stevie Ray Vaughan solo for no apparent reason. Why should he play like Stevie Ray Vaughan when he doesn't do Stevie Ray Vaughan songs? I don't know, but you're the one that reads Q Magazine. I do. And in this month's Q, the fucking secret to the killers. Well, I invited the two of you. I mean, I would want you at any time to be on the show,
Starting point is 00:14:22 but I thought this would be a good pairing so that we can sit down and just talk like girls about... Thank you. Greg's always been in touch with his girly side. Is this going to get to meaning? No. I just want to ask about chick flicks in general because there are some good ones out there.
Starting point is 00:14:41 I was trying to think about it today. Pretty woman. Didn't come up with any. That's all right, especially the Jason Alexander parts. I like this Cindy Portier
Starting point is 00:14:50 director's cut. The Jason Alexander stuff at the end. The rapey stuff. Yeah, where he gets really rapey. He does get rapey. When chick flicks
Starting point is 00:14:58 go rapey, when chick flicks go rapey, they... No. Don't go rapey on a prostitute. They've had it with that bullshit. They have. They have had it. They have. chick flicks go rapey they don't go rapey on a prostitute yeah she got into the situation with
Starting point is 00:15:10 richard gear to get away from the rapiness right yeah and um it went a little rapey there at the she wanted full-blown middle-aged gray-haired nice rich fellow but um i didn't know where that was going and it still hasn't gotten there. When I hear full-blown, it's never in a good direction. I like to use full-blown any time the next word isn't AIDS. I know, that's nice. Because it always takes people off guard. That's what they should have done
Starting point is 00:15:35 shooting the wedding scene. They should have yelled at you, full-blown not AIDS! You'd be like, what? That's not how it works. That was a full-blown. And good. So you like Pretty Woman? That's not how it works. That was a full-blown take. And good. So you like Pretty Woman?
Starting point is 00:15:45 That's your number one chick flick? I would probably, I like The Notebook. Anybody? Yeah, it's romantic. Yeah, I thought, it was good. That guy,
Starting point is 00:15:55 what's his name, Ryan? Ryan Gosling. Yeah, I was gonna guess Seacrest. I wish you had, I'd feel better about this. Seacrest was good in The Notebook. Ryan Gosling is, Seacrest was good. Is Ryan Gosling given a bad performance in a motion pictureacrest was good in the notebook.
Starting point is 00:16:05 Seacrest was good. Has Ryan Gosling given a bad performance in a motion picture? It was great in Half Nelson. I don't believe so. Or was he bad on the Mickey Mouse Club? What about the thing where he dates the doll? I like Lars and the Real Girl. It was a weird-ass movie.
Starting point is 00:16:21 I didn't see it. I heard it was kind of deep. Do you know what I'm talking about? What's it called? The Real Girl. He's really good in it. Lars and the Real Girl. Yay to the Real Girl? Yay? I didn't see it. I heard it was kind of deep. Do you know what I'm talking about? What's it called? The Real Girl. He's really good in it. Lars and the Real Girl. Yay to the Real Girl? Yay?
Starting point is 00:16:27 No to the Real Girl. Don't be afraid. Don't be afraid. I think the no's didn't even see it. I think if you think it's a lame premise, you just don't know. And if you're in, you're in. But he was really good. Like, he really makes you think he's in love with that stupid doll.
Starting point is 00:16:41 Or Rachel McAdams, you know, in the no's. Yeah, or Rachel McAdams. Why are you in love with that stupid doll. Or Rachel McAdams, you know, in the notebook. Yeah, or Rachel McAdams. Why are you in love with that cow? That miserable piece of shit. But, no, I like her a lot too.
Starting point is 00:16:54 I haven't seen her give a bad performance. Yeah, so that's your pick. And Greg, do you have one? Of a chick flick? A favorite chicky flick besides
Starting point is 00:17:03 He's Just Not That Into You I think Shakespeare in Love is a pretty good movie. flick besides I like Shakespeare and Love. Shakespeare and Love. Do you really think it should have beat Saving Private Ryan for Best Picture? Because Entertainment Weekly went back and had people re-vote and it didn't win again. It didn't
Starting point is 00:17:20 stand up the way Saving Private Ryan did. Although I only like Saving Private Ryan until they go back to the grave. I have to not watch the beginning scenes and the end scenes. I don't like anything where people have old age makeup on. And they're trying to bookend what's happened. It's like, fuck you. Just tell the story
Starting point is 00:17:36 and we don't need the scene in the cemetery. The coda. I don't like the coda. Yeah, I would still go with it. I like that one. I remember liking it. It's doomed. They're doomed. It's doomed.
Starting point is 00:17:47 It's a doomed relationship. And whenever there's a doomed relationship, it brings that heightened reality to a romantic movie. They're not going to make it. I like it. They didn't make it in Romeo and Juliet. That's why people love it. They're going to fucking die. And you know that from the get-go because somebody whispered in your ear and they're young.
Starting point is 00:18:01 And there's going to be a stabbing. And they're going to fucking fall in love. That is what all young people want to do. All through revolutionary road. Fall in love, and they're young and there's going to be a stabbing and they're going to fucking fall in love. That is what, that's all young people want to do. All through Revolutionary Road. Fall in love, get fucked up and drop dead. You know in Revolutionary Road how they keep talking about
Starting point is 00:18:11 how they're going to move to France? Yeah. I was like, don't take a boat. Make sure you fly over. By the way, I just got married and don't see Revolutionary Road
Starting point is 00:18:24 within one year of getting married. How about within any year of being alive? It's the most depressing. It's horrifically depressing. It's more depressing. There's like 17 Holocaust movies this year and Revolutionary Road is more depressing. More depressing. There are more laughs in the reader.
Starting point is 00:18:41 I know, yeah. What you're saying is that marriage is a worse fate than the Holocaust. Your soul is... Well, the suburbs and the terrible job. I mean, there's a lot of factors in it. Also, kids you don't want. And then one you try to abort.
Starting point is 00:18:57 But didn't he like his job? I think he liked his job. He kind of... He gets a promotion. He gets approval He likes sleeping with that girl That worked in the Secretary pool
Starting point is 00:19:08 She had really good 50s boobs She did Yeah Like the girl on Mad Men You know who I mean On Mad Men Bigger nipple
Starting point is 00:19:16 It's what's in right now I'm sorry Small nipple girls Don't take that Don't take that wrong It's just saying Yeah That droopy He said bigger nipple You. And don't take that wrong. It's just saying, yeah, the droopier.
Starting point is 00:19:25 He said bigger nipple. You curse a lot, Greg. I wasn't expecting this from you. You seem so wholesome on your book cover. Let's play the Leonard Maltin game, you guys. There's three fans in the audience. And basically the idea is, I'll just tell you quickly, is I will tell you the year.
Starting point is 00:19:49 These are all going to be chick flicks because that's the theme tonight. And I'll tell you the year and how many names you have to choose from and a little clue. And then we'll start with Greg. You say how many names you think you can get it in, and you'll bid back and forth until somebody says name that movie. This movie has 12 names associated with it and we're going to start
Starting point is 00:20:09 from the most obscure and it was released in 1991 and here's the clue. Leonard Maltin thinks it has too many endings. Wow. That's what his opinion is in this review.
Starting point is 00:20:26 Okay. Greg, how many names do you think you can name it in? It has too many endings. Too many endings from 1991, and you got 12 names. You can just start at 12 names if you want to play that way, which is not a bad way to play it. I'll go with nine. All right.
Starting point is 00:20:43 Greg thinks he can get it in nine names. So, Teresa, you can say name that movie or, and that's a good way to win sometimes. I'll go with nine. All right. Greg thinks he can get it in nine names. So, Teresa, you can say name that movie or, and that's a good way to win sometimes. Yeah, no, that can be. Or you can say eight names and hope he underpins you. I think eight names. All right. She says eight names. Name that movie.
Starting point is 00:20:56 Oh. How about it? You play dirty. I do. I don't give a shit. Let me count these out. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. All right.
Starting point is 00:21:04 Okay. Too many endings. Name number eight is Gaylord Sartain. I love his or her work. It's a dude. He's a fat guy who was in the cast of Sonny and Cher and the Hudson Brothers. Okay. Which is not a good clue.
Starting point is 00:21:22 Stan Shaw. A black gentleman who often plays boxers. Okay. Chris O'Donnell. You know him. Yes, I do. I do. Okay.
Starting point is 00:21:33 Ooh. Yeah. Oh. Hang on. Grace Zabriskie. Now, Greg, don't yell it out if you know it, because this is hers to play. Yeah, I know. You can snatch this away from me.
Starting point is 00:21:43 No, I just like going, hang on. Chris O'Donnell. That's the only name I know. Grace Zabriskie. Okay. She was in Twin Peaks. Lois Smith. This is a bad movie. Gary Basaraba. Who was in Dark Knight.
Starting point is 00:22:02 He's the cop that beats up the Joker. Spoiler alert. Uh-uh. How many names have I said? One, two, three, four, five, six. Okay, you get two more names. Oh, gosh. I hope.
Starting point is 00:22:15 Cicely Tyson. Ooh, I know her. We're getting towards some real ones now. Okay. And then Mary Louise Parker. Oh, gosh. Okay. Mary Louise Parker. Oh, gosh. Okay, Mary Louise Parker. Some people in the audience know it.
Starting point is 00:22:28 I want to know what chicks went to this flick. I know. And we don't know if this is a drama or comedy. No, you don't. You just know it has too many endings. It's from 1991. Too many endings. And it can only stall for a little bit longer.
Starting point is 00:22:40 Okay, Chris O'Donnell. Before we give the point to Greg. Okay, I might have to cede this point to Greg. Okay, I might have to see this point, Greg. Do you have an idea, Greg? I mean, you don't have to name it to win the point. No, I don't. I have no idea.
Starting point is 00:22:54 I'll give you the rest of the names and you will yell it out with all your might. Okay. Mary Stewart Masterson, Jessica Tangney, Kathy Bates. See how this game works?
Starting point is 00:23:03 When you get towards the top, then it's a giveaway. That was good. That was good. See, this game works? When you get towards the top, then it's a giveaway. That was good. See? You did good. By the way, can I say about that movie? That was the first time I saw my dad cry. We got in the car and then he just had a complete meltdown.
Starting point is 00:23:17 Was it because he had a hard time getting a parking space? Because he realized he'd just gone to see Fried Green Tomato. He was examining his life. Too many antics. He wondered what had happened. To your point, how dare Leonard Maltin.
Starting point is 00:23:32 To your point, I am from San Francisco, so it probably was the parking space. Oh, okay. But no, for some reason he just had a meltdown. And then the very next time he cried was at the aforementioned Marley and Me. He's got a golden retriever. Couldn't handle it. Well, that's the thing. If a dog died in fried green tomatoes, maybe I would have cried at that.
Starting point is 00:23:52 I think a person dies. Yeah, somebody dies. I forget who, though. It's been a while. I just remember Kathy Bates trying to get a parking spot. All right. And not getting one because she's not sexy enough. Oh, right. And then she hobbles some dude. Is that the one because she's not sexy enough. All right.
Starting point is 00:24:05 And then she hobbles some dude. Is that the one I've got? Insurance. Yeah. Okay, you're going to go first on this one, Teresa. There's nine names. It's from 1988. It would be all tied up if you managed to get this one.
Starting point is 00:24:20 Again, it's a chick flick, and the clue is... What was the year? 88. Got it. I think that you could get it if either one of you gets the opportunity. I think it's pretty gettable in just two names. That's the clue.
Starting point is 00:24:38 There's two... What does Leonard Maltin have to say about this movie? I'm not going to tell you. That's too much. Okay. I thought I understood this game. It's not always what Leonard Maltin thinks. It's just a different kind of clue.
Starting point is 00:24:54 But I'm telling you that there's, okay. So I think somebody will get it in two names. So start. And by two names, I mean the last two names I think the second to last name will give it away I see How's that for a clue? Okay
Starting point is 00:25:09 So now what am I supposed to say? I can guess this in a certain number of names? Yeah, nine names or less Forty-two Forty-two names Oh, sorry, nine names I know I'm not good at this game So I'm going with the maximum
Starting point is 00:25:19 And you're saying I can get it by the time you've mentioned two of the names I think so, yeah I'm going to just name it then. You'll say eight? Eight. Eight. Or you can jump all the way to two names if you want. If you trust my clue. Let's fucking do it.
Starting point is 00:25:33 Who cares? He says two names. What do we get? He says two names. The last thing you want to say is one. Don't say one name. Don't say one. You will be screwed.
Starting point is 00:25:43 Although, what do I have to lose? Because he's definitely going to get it in two. I might not get it. He might not get it. If he doesn't get it, you win the point. He's going to get it one. Don't say one name. Don't say one. You will be screwed. Although, what do I have to lose? Because he's definitely going to get it in two. I might not get it. He might not get it. If he doesn't get it, you win the point. He's going to get it. He got fried green tomatoes. That was hard.
