Doug Hayes, candy wrapper screaming, he sits with 50 at the bar where Colonel Dean is teased.
There's still not one that he won't see, cause Doug loves movies.
Hey everybody
My name is Doug and I love movies
This is Doug Loves Movies coming to you from the
actually full
UCB theater
Thank you very much for filling the place you guys
but it was only like 6 or 7 empty seats
last week
and the week before but it starts to get to you
after a while that there's any empty seats last week and the week before, but it starts to get to you after a while that
there's any empty seats because
it's free to get in and it's
usually pretty fun. Like nine times out of
ten, I think it's a pretty good time.
Like I said, we're at the
UCB Theater in Los Angeles, California
on Tuesday, November 22nd
to Ocean's Eleven. That was Garfunkel
and Oates with the holiday version
of the Doug Loves Movies theme song
written, of course,
by Chris Hardwick and Mike Firm.
Firm Man.
A.K.A. Hard and Firm.
Thanks to everyone who came
to the shows I did last weekend
at the San Jose Improv.
I was on a bunch of different shows.
I did one with Graham Elwood.
I was on Joe Rogan's show.
Sam Tripoli and Joey Diaz were there. Super
fun dudes. Super fun times.
Please support all of their shit.
Speaking of shit, it's time
for Watch This, Not That.
The number one
movie in the country is Twilight Saga
Breaking Dawn Part 1.
Perhaps the first, really?
Apparently there's a young lady in the audience.
Perhaps the first.
Look over there, some big tough dude.
I watched it instead of football.
It's perhaps the first PG-13 movie to feature a vampire performing a C-section on his mortal wife with his teeth.
his mortal wife with his teeth.
The number two movie is Happy Feet 2, which does not feature a vampire performing a C-section on his mortal wife with his teeth, so watch Breaking Dawn Part 1, not Happy Feet Part
2.
This has been Watch This, Not That.
We've got six or seven entries at this point
in the Santa Size Me contest on YouTube.
Get your fake trailer onto YouTube
and tweet me about it by December 15th.
And the winner will get to appear on Douglas Movies
if you can get yourself to L.A.
or if I do a Douglas Movies near where the winner lives.
If you're like in Antarctica
and you have the best Santa size me trailer,
you start saving up for a trip to LA.
Antarctica probably does have a leg up
because they could just go outside and shoot.
I'd think it was the North Pole.
I'm doing four shows at the Punchline in San Francisco
December 27th and 28th
and all four shows will be
pretty much completely different
because I'm going to try to recreate
each of my four albums.
One on each
show. Call it crazy,
call it stupid, but don't call it late for supper.
What?
Alright, my prize bag.
The prize bag tonight, as always, or as lately,
includes my first CD,
Professional Humoridian is in there.
Hurley by Weezer is in there,
signed by all four dudes in the band.
A Weezer t-shirt, a Weezer poster.
You guys have seen it before.
Weezercruise.com
But also
contributed to this package
tonight a
I believe it's a comedy
bang bang or ear wolf t-shirt
a CD
signed by, it's called
My Dinosaur Life and it's signed by all members
of Motion City Soundtrack
and a Regis Philbin Christmas album.
And an I Hate Jimmy Pardo bumper sticker.
So that can only mean that it's time to welcome, please welcome,
Tony Thaxton, Scott Aukerman, and Jimmy Pardo.
Scott had to go.
He said he didn't have much time,
but I thought he might be able to get in a little bit more time on the mic
than that, but he's out the door.
I heard that intro. I got top billing on that.
You did. That's one way to look at it.
I generally build to the biggest name,
but okay.
Oh, wait.
What's up, middle biggest name?
You're middle biggest.
Did you hear the response
that Regis CD got? That guy went over.
Yeah. I told you that people
might get excited that Regis is here. He's retired now. Yeah. I told you that people might get excited that Regis is
here. He's retired now. What else is he going to do?
Not this.
That is true. Not this.
But now I've got a goal.
Right? Yes. Start tweeting. I'm going to prove you wrong.
Regis in 2012.
I like it. Wait, let's be realistic.
Regis in 2013, if he's not
dead.
Oh, come on. If, let's be realistic. Regis in 2013, if he's not dead. Oh, come on.
2014, he dies.
If we're all not dead.
The world's going to end 2-0-1-th.
Hi, I'm...
Holy shit.
Good start.
Strong start.
Oh, what?
I'm making fun of myself.
Okay.
Very excited to have the three of you here because you're all three former Tournament of Championships competitors.
You don't say.
Yeah, none of you have ever actually won an entire tournament, but you all came fairly close.
I won the 12 Days of Christmas.
Yeah.
All right.
I consider beating 11 other people to be...
It was pretty amazing,
and that got you instant entry into the next tournament of championships.
So that means that Jimmy and Tony
could be fighting for a slot in that.
How many open slots are there in that, Doug?
You'd be an alternate.
That's how many...
Yeah, there's already so many people.
Then why try today?
Well, I'll tell you why.
What incentive do I have to try?
Because you want to win for somebody in the audience.
No, I'm selfish.
Because you want to get rid of that Regis Philbin CD.
I'm back in.
Because if you lose, I'm going to make you keep it.
I like Regis's voice.
He's a terrific crooner.
I love his voice.
When he gets together with Tony Bennett, it's like two old guys talking.
I love my heart in San Francisco.
Yeah.
That's the perfect impression.
Thanks, guys.
Hey, three guys fighting
for an open slot
reminds me of college.
Hey!
Anyway.
Can't go.
Because I played
classes are hard to get in.
We had both had
alternate punchlines
to that one.
And we said them
at the same time,
which nullifies all punchlines.
The ultimate nullifier.
Doug?
Yes, sir?
Have you commented on this gentleman's
house arrest bracelet in his sock there?
Has that come up at all?
What do we got in there, sir?
What is that?
He's got, I think it's like his wallet, maybe.
Is that a tumor?
Is that that square bulbous tumor?
I think he's got a wallet, or he's one of those guys that's like
a deck of cards and he's always trying to do magic tricks.
What do you got
in there, sir? He's always like, what's up, ladies?
What do you got? Hang on. Whatever it is.
Is it a camera? It has nothing to do with movies.
It is a camera. It's a camera. Ladies and gentlemen, I guess
camera. Confirmed camera. I think it's a phone.
He could make movies with that. I've just been told it's a phone.
Phone confirmed.
Sir, what is it?
It is a phone.
Aw, damn it.
This just in.
His sock.
All right, let's go.
Let's go.
Let's talk movies.
The construction of a joke?
Really?
It had the...
You said something like, give us the update, and I said, this just in.
Oh, we got it? I we got it The professionals are questioning it
I thought you were saying it didn't make sense
To get a spot in the next
To get an alternate spot
You need to not only get a movie right
In negative names today
But then also win the entire game
So Scott is really going to be Sitting here trying to keep you guys from participating.
Just from doing that.
Because I'm already in.
So I have no stakes here.
No, your stakes are that you hate to lose at this game.
That is true.
Okay.
That's what I need.
Good.
I didn't need to go to more.
Yeah, okay.
No, you guys are all very competitive, and that's what I like about you.
That's the new criteria for return guest
on Douglas movies.
I'm going to say print that lineup now
because I'm not going to be on that thing.
I don't see me winning here.
You're good at this game, Jimmy.
I don't need a pep talk.
I'm saying that
there's a lot of hoops to jump through
in order to, you know.
Yeah, it's not going to be easy.
Anybody can do it.
We'll see you at the end.
Thaxton.
We'll figure it out.
We'll find out at the end.
Speaking of Thaxton,
Tony Thaxton,
drummer for Motion City Soundtrack, you guys.
Thank you.
Brought a copy of one of their CDs,
My Dinosaur Life,
and all the dudes signed it.
There's like five dudes on there, right?
Indeed.
Yeah.
And I noticed that I went to either imdb or somewhere i did some research and found that uh you guys have a song over the end credits oh maybe you tweeted about it that was it oh you tweeted
about you have a song at the end of chris tucker must die john t Die. Oh, why do we have to quibble? Don't fuck up the classics. Why can't a guy
dream?
I'm the Norm Cosby of
movie podcasters. This guy.
Thank you, Jimmy. Oh, I'm slow. You know
what? I'm slow on that. I just
got it. Yeah, it's fun.
It's fun to say names wrong on purpose.
But that Chris Tucker Must Die movie, or got it yeah that's funny it's fun it's fun to say names wrong on purpose but that chris tucker must
i movie or john tucker you have a song that plays over the credits uh in credits yeah that's pretty
exciting that's like that's like that's like being in the movie yeah it is it's in the movie it is in
the movie and when it plays on hbo they uh HBO, they don't squeeze it and run it fast.
They play it out.
Oh, yeah.
Squeeze it and run it fast sounds like college.
It might be college.
I played Doug Love's movies.
What?
In college.
That was my tag from the previous joke.
But you didn't say yours at the same time.
Oh, that's what we were supposed to do?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You and I are always out of sync.
We were never in sync.
We were never in five of those young lads.
Jimmy Pardo.
Peter Cetera's Glory of Love
played over the credits in Karate Kid 2
and went to number one.
You want to shit on this gentleman?
Go ahead and do so.
I'm telling you. I'm telling you.
I'm telling you where that song's heading.
Top of the chart.
I love it when Old Man Factoid drops by.
Old Man Factoid, tell us a little more about Vision Quest.
Madonna had a hit on there.
Played over the end credits.
Weather number one.
Oh, you don't say.
True story. And credit over the end credits. Went to number one. Oh, you don't say. True story.
And credit trivia.
Dot com.
We're going to buy that domain of the night.
Give it time.
Give it till tomorrow, everybody.
Don't be assholes and go looking for it tonight.
I don't have time.
I don't know Photoshop.
Who here tonight is coming or going to the podcast-a-thon Friday night here in Los Angeles.
See, I knew there'd be some folks that are all planning
to hang out all night with you over
at the Acme Comedy Theater
on La Brea. That's correct, 6P to 6A.
And folks that are not going to be there can
watch it live online at podcast.com.
Raising money for Smile Train.
And or suck a dick.
Nope.
Can't see that being the Nope. Can't see that being the option.
Can't see that being the alternative.
What should we do tonight?
Should we do a podcast?
How do you think about sucking a dick?
You know what?
You talked me into it.
I'm going to go with B.
I think Scott was pointing out that you could listen to it and suck a dick.
Like you could do them both at the same time.
I can't.
And no one would complain.
No one would complain.
You're the only person that can't listen to the podcast
while sucking on a dick. How does that make you feel? Are you disappointed
you can't suck a dick and be on the show at the same time?
It makes me feel better than everybody else.
You are better than everybody else.
You're raising money for the Smile Train,
a very good organization.
Yeah. Thank you.
Thank you.
And Scott Aukerman, I can't be there if the podcast is on. I. Thank you. Thank you. And Scott Aukerman,
I can't be there if the podcast is on.
I apologize for that, but
I also cannot attend. Scott Aukerman,
curator of Comedy Bang Bang,
you've got a big benefit show
coming up in Los Angeles in December?
Yes, and in fact,
December 13th,
and this is the first time I will
have ever talked about it.
Can you text people about it at the same time?
No, I have the names of people who will be here.
You're going to name the whole lineup right here?
It's not like a surprise or anything?
It's not a surprise.
It's got to move some tickets, man.
It's got to move some tickets.
Who's on the podcast-a-thon?
Listen, I'm not comfortable talking about it.
Jimmy's in the rare... You have the great Listen, I'm not comfortable talking about it. Jimmy is in the rare...
You have the great
fortune to not have to sell tickets to this.
This is more of a broadcast event.
We sold out the tickets. They sold out
in about 12 minutes.
The theater is full. It's only 100 seats.
The theater is full.
We like the guests to be surprised whenever they pop out.
It's fun. Can you recommend people
wear their Lazy Forever jumpsuit pajama things?
Absolutely.
Forever Lazy?
Yeah, those things are great.
I don't know what it is, but yes.
There's a thing called Forever Lazy.
They've taken all those footie pajamas.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
I've seen that.
They put it all together so you could just be encased in love and die alone.
They could wear that, or they could suck a dick.
The options as you age
just do not get better.
Let's hear it.
Let's hear what you got.
This will be at the Montalban Theater.
Tickets are going to go on sale very soon.
This is a 1,000 seat theater.
You know what I heard about that theater?
What's that?
That it looks marvelous.
No.
No, it does not.
It's not even the person. It's not even the person.
It's not even the right guy.
If you were to say DePlaine, DePlaine was flying over it.
All the seats there have Corinthian leather.
That's what I should have said.
That's a little better.
And everybody has a smile.
Let me give you an example of the lineup here.
We have Patton Oswalt, Sarah Silverman, Kevin Nealon, Mark Maron, Tim Heidecker, Bob Odenkirk,
Neil Hamburger, Tom Lennon, Nick Kroll,
Paul Scheer, Anthony Jeselnik,
David Wayne, David Koechner, Todd Glass,
Paul F. Thompson, Natasha Leggero.
That's just half the lineup right there.
That'll be December 13th.
Again, I'm so sorry I can't make it.
It would have been an awesome show
if I could have stopped by to say a few things.
You're saying that like I didn't invite you.
No, I said I can't make it.
That sounds like I was invited.
No, but it sounds like when you say it that sarcastically,
anything you say like,
oh, I'm so sorry I can't make it.
Yeah, the joke was that's a fucking fantastic lineup
and my bullshit would add literally nothing.
I was insulting myself.
Well, I'd like you to be a little more clear about your insults to yourself. Jimmy's bad at insulting myself. Well, I'd like you to be a little more clear
about your insults to yourself.
Jimmy's bad at insulting himself.
We're all so bad at it.
Can I tell you this?
Survivor's Eye of the Tiger
ran over the credits of Rocky III.
Oh, boy.
To the top!
Rise it up!
OFT.
Back on the street.
Old factoid.
OFT. All right, so I Factoid. OFT. Alright, so
I have questions about movies for you guys.
If we could slip some talk about that into the
show. People love that.
Have you
seen any lately? Let's start with Tony.
Yeah, I've seen
a few. I saw the
Being Elmo documentary,
which I thoroughly enjoyed. It's not easy, Being Elmo? What's it called? Being saw the Being Elmo documentary, which I thoroughly enjoyed.
It's Not Easy Being Elmo?
What's it called?
Being Elmo.
Being Elmo.
About the guy that performs Elmo.
Yeah, yeah.
It's an international sign for Elmo.
It's African American, gentlemen.
It is.
What's up?
As I understand it.
Yeah.
Yeah, you didn't know that, did you?
No, I did not.
Take that away from Oliver as soon as you can.
You got that right.
No more Elmo for Ollie.
And that's a good movie, though, right?
Yeah, it's great.
It's kind of a heartwarming story.
And it, I'll be honest, made me tear up a couple of times.
Right, because children that are probably dying get visited by Elmo?
Exactly.
There is a scene in there.
And that black guy shows up and scares everybody. because children that are probably dying get visited by Elmo? Exactly. There is a scene in there.
And that black guy shows up and scares everybody.
I just made myself laugh.
I couldn't even keep the straight face I wanted to.
Yeah, you almost committed to that.
I broke.
Yeah.
I apologize.
It's nothing what you were saying, Tony. I wanted to get that racist joke in there.
I didn't want that to be missed.
Jimmy, have you been to the movies? I know you
I saw a double feature on
Saturday, Doug. No way. Yep.
You did a little theater skip?
No, I paid for both. I'm a gentleman.
Paid for both? Yep. He was in a theater
I was one of four people in both showings, so
they would have seen me going in and out
So Jack and Jill, that's right. That's a
Who does he owe money to?
I'm Delaney on Twitter saying he's trying to he's trying to get with Jill. He wants to fuck her
Anyway, I saw a margin a Kevin Spacey vehicle.
And it was all right.
And I saw, I get this name wrong each time, Martha Marcy May Marlene.
Saw that.
I think you actually said it right, too.
Outstanding.
It's good?
It's rather, pinker drop.
That's how excited they are about my review on this.
I saw it.
You saw it? Yeah, I saw it. Did you like it? I thought it was good pinka drop. That's how excited they are about my review on this. I saw it. You saw it?
Yeah, I saw it.
Did you like it?
I thought it was good.
I mean, it's a thriller.
I thought it was going to be a drama.
It is a drama, but it's more of a thriller.
I was not expecting that.
Does that make sense?
Not expecting it's one thing, but then you weren't prepared for what it was?
I was ready.
You couldn't handle it?
I was ready for an emotional catharsis.
Yeah, I kind of was, too.
I kind of thought it was going to be something like that.
It's more of a...
It's more of just...
Scary.
Yeah, a little bit scary.
A little creepy.
Creepy.
Creepy, maybe.
Like the last exorcism kind of thing?
No, not even that.
It's just kind of...
I liked that movie.
It's interesting.
I definitely thought it was interesting.
Yeah, I liked it.
I enjoyed it.
And that young lady
did a terrific job.
Sure.
That Olsen gal.
Nellie Olsen
from Little House on the Prairie.
She's really grown up.
The third Olsen.
So what about...
Scott, we talk about movies
frequently off mic.
Off and on mic.
Yeah, and you... Your top movie, has it changed?
Your favorite of the year? Has it changed in the last
week or so?
I'm really into The Descendants.
Yeah, I saw that
and enjoyed it.
But Bridesmaids, I think, is maybe
my top movie of the year so far.
I really enjoy that. I did see
J. Edgar the other day,
and it is J-ust horrible.
It's, I tell you,
you do not have time to laugh at his ridiculous accent
before the terrible old age makeup pops up
in front of your eyes.
Yeah, I don't know about the old age makeup.
I'm always, I don't even like it in a
Katy Perry video.
Not even then? Not even then.
Todd Levin, who you know, had a great
line on Twitter about it, which was
old age makeup for J. Edgar
provided by Halloween headquarters.
It is
so ridiculous.
Instead of being in a movie, he should just
jump out in the middle of a maze.
Like a Halloween maze.
Hello, Shani!
It's like a Carol Burnett sketch
the entire time.
It really is.
I've heard some people
saying good things about it,
so I'm going to still check it out,
but I...
Kick them in the dick.
It is terrible.
Well, when my mom tells me something's good, I generally don't kick her in the dick. It is terrible. Well, when my mom tells me something's good,
I generally don't kick her in the dick.
It's a very rude response.
So you haven't seen Young Adult yet?
No, I saw it the other night, yeah.
Oh, you did.
So that didn't vault into your top movies?
I tell you, one thing I feel like they missed
is Charlize Theron.
Okay, it's called Young Adult
because she's a writer of young adult books. But one thing they missed, uh charlize theron okay it's called young adult because she's a writer of
young adult books but one thing they missed it has a double meaning because she actually
is not very mature in the movie they totally missed that they never like you think they
weren't aware of that no not at all it's crazy like i'm so i just like I hope they address that at some point so confusing
physical
played over the credits
of perfect
let's get physical
by Olivia Newton-John
that went to number one
there was a dude
I can't remember his name now
in the last UFC fights
he came out
to let's Get Physical
and had like a rubber band jump rope-y kind of thing
and was dancing around and acting all silly.
And then he was fucking knocked out in the first round.
It's hard to remember someone's names
when your pants are around your ankles
and you're in a hotel room jerking off furiously.
You were right about the pants around the ankles,
but I was at the fights.
I wasn't in a hotel room.
That'd be creepy.
When you're at the fights,
that's what you paid for,
is to be able to jerk off while you watch it.
But one more thing I want to ask Scott
before we get into the meat of the...
Oh, I don't have a...
You mean best of for Oscar contender?
You don't see movies in that way?
No, I just like favorite movie of the year.
Of the year.
Well, the movie I had the most fun at
and will watch again and again
is probably Super.
And then... Super 8.
A few people. You didn't finish.
Just let me finish!
Hold the applause until the entire title.
Super.
Super.
Yeah.
I enjoyed the first half or two-thirds of Super 8 is one of the best films of the year,
but I just don't like what happens near the end.
All the kids get raped, if you haven't seen it.
Repeatedly.
It's the weirdest plot twist
because it's such a sweet movie up until that point.
And the alien just watches.
He has nothing.
You're like, the least you could do
is tell whoever your leader is, you know?
He's got no dog in this hunt.
But Scott, I wanted to ask you about...
Please do.
Are you excited that Titanic is coming back?
So excited!
It's coming back in 3D.
Yeah, that's next April.
But it's going to give you a chance to bring back
your fantastic joke about that movie.
That I'm putting you on the spot.
Oh shit, I don't remember.
Whisper it in my ear.
Oh, here, look.
So are you excited that it's in 3D this time around?
I will say that Kate Winslet put the tit in Titanic.
Why did I say that?
I don't remember it.
You said it like when Titanic came out.
Eight years ago?
Have we known each other that long?
Have we known each other that long?
Have we known each other, what, 13 years?
We've known each other 16 years.
So three years in, you said that.
And I've been clinging to it,
hoping for a 3D re-release.
Titanic trivia.
That Celine Dion song played over the end credits.
True story.
Went to number one.
You guys want to look this up.
Google it.
No, the end titles of Def...
It was Def Leppard at the end of Titanic.
No, you didn't see the right movie.
I saw the wrong Titanic.
Okay, shall we play a game?
It's called the Leonard Maltin Game.
I'd rather not.
I'd rather not play.
You guys got name tags?
I refuse myself.
Jordan didn't even bring his baseball
because he knows.
You wouldn't get to be picked anyway.
There's a Sarah Bueller's
day off. Is your last name Bueller?
Holy shit. That's pretty good.
And then Jordan with the boxing glove.
The frisbee.
How do I pronounce that?
Someone's played for you before, right?
But they didn't win?
Honor system. Is this guy's name gizmo what's that oh my shit there is a giant gizmo headed dude in the audience
that's what they should have worn in the town when they were robbing the bank
can i ask a question i know what happens when you pour water on you but what if you pee on you That's what they should have worn in the town when they were robbing the bank.
Can I ask a question?
I know what happens when you pour water on you, but what if you pee on you?
Because Scott wants to pee on you after midnight.
But you'll grab a snack first.
He'll buy.
Yeah, go get your name tags, guys.
Go pick whoever you want to play for and take it from them.
Bring it back here to the stage.
Sarah Bueller got picked.
The weird...
What does that have to do with your name? Is your name Gizmo?
Don't shake your head like yes.
Birth name. I notice whenever I play this
that people don't pick the gals all that often.
They always go with the guy. So I chose
Sarah. Okay. Sarah
Buehler's day off. Yeah.
What's your actual name, Gizmo
guy? Anthony. Okay.
And you went with the... We can remember that
because your name is Anthony. It's actually...
I'm actually a birth Tony.
Birth Tony? What?
And it's T-O-N-E with a
dash over the E? Exactly, yes.
Wow, this is
the cutest, creepiest thing I've ever seen
that Scott managed to find. I just pulled
out my penis.
What I assume is a
Snuggles teddy bear puppet
with a V for Vendetta
mask on it.
Look at that shit. Look at that tiny little mask.
Why aren't you down on Wall Street right now?
I thought so.
The V from Vendetta guy wasn't much of a talker.
He actually gave speeches, right?
In that movie?
Like political speeches?
Beautiful, florid speeches.
Ah!
But yeah, and John, where's John at?
John did go with the...
He's up top right up there. Okay, John did go with the 99% loves Doug loves movies
is the sign that this little creepy bear is holding.
That is really disturbing looking.
All right, we'll put that next to Gizmo.
By the way.
Oh, and he can blow himself also,
which comes in handy when you're occupying Wall Street.
Because you get bored.
You got to make the time go.
Yeah, you got to make the time pass.
And pepper spray is a great lubricant.
So one thing about the Occupy Wall Street.
Hey, guys, take a bath or something.
You know what I mean?
I mean, I know that we're like.
Occupy bathtub.
Yeah.
How about that for like one day Occupy bathtub? Yeah. How about that?
For like one day out of the month.
Seriously.
I mean, God bless you guys. You haven't been,
so you have no idea what it smells like.
I don't even know what we're talking about.
Honestly.
That's fair.
It really is.
You're talking about that movie with Carly Sheen, right?
What was in the end credits?
Oh, the Wall Street end credits?
I can't answer that.
Wall Street!
They're all coming down!
The walls onto the street.
Wall Street!
Money never sleeps!
That's where they got the idea for the sequel,
was the song at the end of...
Okay, I don't know the answer.
That did not have a soundtrack.
The Wall Street did not have a terrific soundtrack.
Oh, really?
Yeah, I'm the soundtrack guy all of a sudden.
Really, OMF? Old Man Factoid?
That's right.
All right, Jimmy, since you think you have no chance tonight,
we'll start with you.
And we'll finish it with you.
And since you're a soundtrack expert,
that helps me to decide
on what the first category option is.
You've got three choices.
I'm ready to go.
I'm playing for Sarah.
After you select on behalf of Sarah,
we'll go to Scott
and then to Tony, birth name Tony.
Weezer on the soundtrack.
It's motion pictures
where Weezer is on the soundtrack.
I don't know if they're in
Chris Tucker Must Die,
but they might be.
At Kronberg on Twitter
suggested that time
of the movie,
which is period films.
Are we talking about films
where chicks get their periods?
Because that's what
they're called, yes.
I love all the great period films, like Carrie.
Carrie was one of the great period films.
And I believe I'm at a loss for a second period film.
There haven't been a lot of really good ones.
Under that definition, there's pretty much only the one.
Or Tootsie Pops.
Done.
That's movies where Dustin Hoffman plays someone's father. Tootsie Pops done that's movies where
Dustin Hoffman
plays someone's father
Tootsie Pops
which one would you like Jim?
I go Tootsie Pops
he's going Tootsie Pops
alright
this movie's from
1989
love it
two and a half stars
from Leonard Maltin
yeah
it says that 1989. Love it. Two and a half stars from Leonard Maltin. Yeah.
It says that Hoffman plays a father who is estranged,
which I believe means no longer around the child.
And then Leonard says this movie is worth seeing for three terrific performances.
Who are the other two besides Hoffman?
Those would be determined later.
I see.
I see.
But nice try.
Yeah.
I bet you're great at, Simon says, two and a half stars.
1989.
89, huh?
Hoffman plays an estranged father, and there are three leads that are quite terrific.
That's what I hear.
And there are eight names listed.
I assume those three will be in there somewhere,
possibly even in the top three.
But you start at the bottom.
That's right.
So how many names do you think you need, Jimmy?
Five.
Five.
Strong, bold opening bid coming over to Scott Aukerman.
Fuck, I know everything. I've seen this movie coming over to Scott Aukerman. Fuck, I know
everything. I've seen this movie. I know everything
about the name.
So, with that
in mind, I'm going to have to say four.
Wow, that
seems to give
Tony an easy decision.
That's what I was thinking. Unless you're some sort
of liar.
It could be a bluffing.
Yeah, I'm going to say name that movie.
Interesting, yeah.
Name that movie.
Let me hear the names.
Do you still not know what it's called?
I mean, I know it's one word.
A pluralized word.
I can guess.
Okay, Ian, you get four names all right Deborah Rush Bill
McCutcheon Victoria Jackson and Janet Carroll I said them quickly because
they're probably of no help yeah they're no help it's it's it's not fuck, it's not,
yeah,
break it down.
What movies is it not?
It's something like, get the list out.
It's something like
Thieves or
Robbers,
but I'm trying to
know exactly what it,
it's,
because it's Sean Connery
and Dustin Hoffman.
He said Victoria Jackson,
clearly UHF.
It's...
Victoria Jackson?
Yeah, she was in this.
I thought you said Virginia Madsen.
It could be Virginia Madsen for all anybody really cares.
I mean, you didn't get into the meat of it
with those names that you got.
Who knows what Victoria Jackson is in it?
Sean Connery plays Dustin Hoffman's father even though he's only
eight years old. If the game were to describe everything
about it but the title,
you would kick ass.
Can we change this game? I'm going to need an answer.
It's not
Steelers.
The Iron Curtain. It's not Packers.
It's not Dolphins.
I'm going to have to say Thieves because it's the only thing I can think of.
You know, it does have an S in the end and another S,
and it's also got Matthew Broderick, and it's about their three thieves.
The grandfather and the father.
They're thieves, robbers.
They're thieves, robbers, but since they do it together,
that makes what they do a family business.
Oh.
Family business.
But congratulations on knowing more about it than probably anyone in this room.
I can even tell you where I saw it.
Except for the title.
Please tell us where you saw it.
I saw it at the Alondra Theater in Alondra, California.
One person clapping over there for that.
One thing that a lot of people, I can tell you where I saw any movie I've ever seen.
But what's weird about that talent is no one cares.
Do you know that played on the end credits, though?
Yes.
Where did you see Con Air?
Con Air.
I saw that in Azusa, California.
Cinerama Dome with me, idiot!
No, I dressed up for that at Cinerama Dome.
I wore a prison outfit.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, here we go.
Continuing the game.
Tony Thaxton
gets a point, everybody.
We'll start with
Jimmy. Start with Jimmy again, then
go to Tony. So you get to pick another
category. Would you like
at Starvin,
no G, Starvin, on Twitter
suggested same first name.
That's a movie where the main character in the movie
has also got the same first name as
the actor or actress who plays that character.
Or,
it's Scarlett Johansson's birthday today.
Yeah. Another
category.
No, that's a category. Scarlett Johansson's birthday today. Yeah. Another category. No, that's a category.
Scarlett Johansson movies.
Or, this is an exciting category I just came up with today,
because I saw a copy of Entertainment Weekly.
It has a whole article about big stars' worst movies.
So this would be the worst movie, according to Entertainment Weekly,
of one particular big star.
I like that category, but I'm going to go with that
name one. You like the same first
name? I do. Okay. I think that
sounds fun.
1980.
I'm going to switch it to that other one.
Two
stars from Leonard Maltin,
which a lot of people would disagree
with. The other way?
Yeah. A lot of people would give it more.
He says it's intriguing but ineffectual from 1980,
and he also says that it goes on forever.
Long movie.
Goes on forever.
1980, two stars.
Intriguing but ineffectual.
And there are seven names.
How many names do you think you get in, Jimmy Pardo
of the Pardcastathon
Friday night, streaming live
at
Pardcast.com
Pardcast.com
What do you think? How many names do you need out of seven?
The movie is the, if I
understand the category, the title
of the movie is the
first name of the man
that stars in the movie or lady?
No, it's not in the title at all.
The character.
Those are champs.
I don't know what the category is.
The main character.
Ah, fuck.
The main character has the same name
as the lead actor or actress who plays.
Oh, so it's the lead.
If Jean-Claude Van Damme were in this movie, he would play a character called Jean-Claude Van Damme were in this movie
he would play a character called Jean-Claude Van Damme just the first
names all we need okay which parts the first name Jean-Claude is Claude part of
his last name I'm gonna mr. Claude Van Damme. Your table is ready.
My dinner was Jean Claude.
How many out of seven?
Considering that I didn't understand this until this very moment.
No, you did not.
This category is a loser.
Yeah, I know.
You're right.
I apologize.
I think whether you understand it or not, it's a tough category.
Well, I made an error.
I admit the error.
I apologize to my fellow panelists.
I'll go with seven.
Smart opening bit.
Now we move to Tony.
Six.
Six.
Tony, name that movie.
All right.
Tony already has a point.
If he gets this, he wins.
Yeah.
I'm confident.
I'm confident in you.
All right. I'm confident in you Alright I'm confident in Tony
If anybody wants to try
To play some side bets
He gets six out of seven names
Sure
1980
That is some bold play
Tony was one year old
You're not sitting next to
T.J. Miller
Tony when were you born Tony
1978
78
1978 buffs in the crowd.
Yeah, and you started
going to movies when you were two-ish, right?
Yeah, so you've seen this.
Alright, two stars.
1978, intriguing but ineffectual.
Wait, is this Empire Strikes Back?
The film goes on forever. Was Han Solo in this?
Han Solo as himself.
That's why he got the part.
His name was Han.
I apologize to everybody.
I hate myself more than I've ever hated myself in my entire life.
There's no clues for this.
Listen, I fucked up.
Letterman says it might be good.
Name the movie.
Let me see.
Let me see Sarah's name tag, Jimmy. Pass that down
here for a second. Oh, you're more, yeah.
Let me see that. Yeah, you got it.
I think, okay, I just wanted to see if she wrote a shithead
on the back. She didn't. I don't think Gizmo's
going to get it. We're going to have to get her to come over and write one down.
I'm not worried about Gizmo. You think he's going to get it from this?
And Sarah, John,
John will have to come down and write one down. No, John wrote
one on the popsicle stick. You think he's getting
it from this, Doug? Is that what you're trying to say?
Okay.
What's that?
You think he's getting
it from this?
Oh, yeah, I do.
You do?
Six names?
Yeah, I do.
90s, 30s?
There's a lot of names
for most movies.
And it's the lead
plays someone.
It's not just anyone
in the movie.
It's the lead, right?
The lead's Madonna.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
My advice is just
walk away from every
clue you've heard
except for these six
names you're about to hear.
Ann Jackson, Joe Turkel, Barry Nelson.
Now, please don't yell it out, you guys,
because you're all going to know it starting now.
Scatman Crothers, Danny Lloyd, and Shelley Duvall.
What do you think it is?
The Shining.
That's correct.
Tony Thaxton is our winner.
Yeah, but okay.
This category sucks.
In your defense,
it's a second category.
Because if you had gotten those clues
and it was anyone below Scatman,
you're asked out.
Well, I'm a huge Scatman fan.
That's why the strategy in the bidding, you're right. Below Scatman, people, I'm a huge Scatman fan. So that's why, yeah, that's why the strategy in the bidding, you're right.
Like below Scatman, people might not have gotten it.
I might've gotten it off of Barry Nelson
because it was odd that he was in a movie
after kind of not being in stuff for a while
and he was the very first James Bond in a TV version.
But probably not.
I probably wouldn't have rang any bells.
Tell you what, double or nothing, let's go to three.
Yeah, double or nothing.
Here we go, here we go.
What does that even mean?
I don't have twice the prizes for...
Tell you what, tell you what, tell you what.
I'll give up my seat.
What does that mean?
I'm going gonna win this
You're already two points in the hole
It would take forever
Fuck it
What are you doing?
What are you proposing?
I'll give up my seat
In the finals?
In the finals to this guy
Cause he didn't win
He didn't win a seat in the finals
Who didn't? Tony didn't win a seat in the finals who didn't
Tony didn't win one
no
no he's not in the next
tournament of championships
so double or nothing
meaning
if he wins
he gets my seat
but does Jimmy get a play also
no fuck Jimmy
well in that case
I'd like to present a $500 check to Jimmy for his podcast-a-thon on Friday night.
Get the ball rolling.
I've got to write a name on here.
But let's get the ball rolling with the $500 donation.
And then, Scott, again, I'm sorry I can't make it to your thing.
That's all right.
Did you also bring your $501 check?
No, also, it's for the L.A. Food Bank,
and I am matching that as well for another $500 to the L.A. Food Bank.
Thank you so much, Scott.
Vincent, can we get a picture of this?
Can we get a picture of us holding the big, huge check?
Just grab a shot of that.
Okay, good.
We got a lot of shots of it.
Great.
Thank you.
No, tell you what.
Okay, let's lay down some ground rules.
Okay, mano a mano.
Since Comedy Bang Bang is your show,
I'm always rushing at this point to wrap it up
because out of respect to your show starting out.
We're fine.
I just got a cancellation while I was-
Okay, so one of the great people who was supposed to be here tonight isn't going to be here to make up for it. We're going to your show starting out time. We're fine. I just got a cancellation while I was... Okay, so one of the great people
who was supposed to be here tonight
isn't going to be here to make up for it.
We're going to drag this game out.
And I'm really not participating?
Fuck you, man.
Get out of here.
No, you can root me on.
Oh, no.
What?
Oh, Sarah's name tag.
Let's be clear. That's a piece of paper.
Everybody just acted like I punched her in the mouth.
What the fuck was the weapon?
She can print another one and it has a marker probably, everybody.
Tell you what we do.
We play another round to two with the three of us,
and whoever gets to two gets my seat.
So, Jimmy, you're in it.
I'm in.
Shut up.
But we start at zero.
Yeah, get that crinkled up name tag back.
Does Gizmo still get the prize, or does the prize move on as well?
Oh, yeah, Gizmo won this stuff.
That's a done deal.
Looking out for Gizmo.
And so,
at least you get to,
John and Sarah get to pick a shithead
for the end of the show.
Quick anecdote,
and this is not music related.
That I Hate Jimmy Pardo bumper sticker,
Doug,
you were on the telephone with me
when I came up with that idea
to make the I Hate Jimmy Pardo bumper stickers.
Because I said that?
No, I did. I was working in Houston,
Texas, and you were going to be at the club the week after me. And you said, how are the shows going?
I go, yeah, they're going alright. I should be selling I Hate Jimmy Porto bumper stickers.
And then you laughed and went, that's a good idea. And I went, yeah, that is a good idea.
I had no idea. It's a horrible idea.
How many of those have you eaten over a full hour?
I made 1,000 of them.
I sold them for $2 for a week and then $1 thereafter after every show.
And I have about 900 left.
Made those in 1995.
But I love that there's 100 people driving around probably building up world hatred for Jimmy Pardo.
My mother saw one the other day and was like, wow, somebody really hates you.
You didn't tell your mother about it.
Some guy made his own bumper sticker.
Somebody hates you so badly.
Where's John with the delightful puppet?
No, he's on the back of this.
Oh, yeah, you wrote it on the stick.
Got it, got it.
I have to confess I was barely paying attention during the game
because I was dealing with the dropout I had,
and then I got a weird email.
So I would love to concentrate.
Oh, that's part of why you didn't do well?
That and my own ineptitude for not remembering.
You really hate losing.
I'm saying let's go again.
You hate it so much that you ask everybody to keep the game going.
These guys don't mind.
Yeah, let's do it.
I'm into it.
So if Scott loses to either of these two gentlemen
in another round of the game to two points,
they will get your spot.
Yeah.
And you have a definite spot.
You weren't an alternate.
You were definitely in.
No, I have a spot,
because even in the last tournament of champions,
I qualified.
Yeah, you're constantly qualifying. You were definitely in. No, I have a spot, because even in the last tournament of champions, I qualified. Yeah, you're constantly qualifying.
You're always qualifying.
Your mistakes are always being qualified.
Oh, Doug, do you really mean that?
A little bit.
Kind of.
All right, so since this was your idea, we'll let you start.
Love it. And then we'll go to Tony and then to Jimmy.
Which one of these categories would you enjoy would you like edgar wright hasn't seen it which
is films that edgar wright has not seen and uh there's some clues if you notice the new beverly
recently announced which movies he's showing that he it's the festival of movies edgar's never seen
december 9th through the 16th. And on Thursday, December 15th,
I'm going to be co-hosting
it with him. Is this part of those
movies that he's showing, or this is
just in general? This is a movie
he hasn't seen.
So that's not the greatest
category in terms of making
you feel confident, because he
could have not seen anything.
It's movies he hasn't seen you don't know
him that well sure you would probably wouldn't know which movies i haven't seen i can take a
stab at it because you probably weren't sitting next to me okay that sounds romantic we've seen
a lot of movies together was my point and there's always an extra seat in between us you probably
weren't sitting next to me uh king of pancakes and i'm always going to give king of pancakes
credit for this one because this is a great category number one movie at the box office
domestic one year 10 years ago today let's go with 10 years ago today so you've got edgar hasn't seen
it 10 years ago today or for your third optiongar hasn't seen it 10 years ago today or
for your third option i gotta go back to a category that's already been covered so let's pick
the scarlett johansson so would you like scarlett 10 years ago today or edgar's never seen it i am I am... I'm gonna go
ten years ago today.
In the shadow of 9-11,
America's ready to...
Now, again, a stronger
competitor wouldn't remind people of exactly
the...
I think we can all figure it out.
We all know what happened ten years ago.
I wouldn't jump to that. I wouldn't necessarily
think this film came out in the shadow.
Well, actually, he said 1980
earlier. I said I was two, and then Scott
asked, what year were you born?
I wasn't listening to you.
Yeah, he was on his phone dealing with the cancellation.
Tell us who canceled.
Rita Redner.
No, no, no.
Chelsea Peretti may have canceled.
I'm just trying to figure out exactly what's going on.
All right.
I'm sure you'll figure something out, and this is the best time to do it.
Sure.
Go ahead.
After getting us to continue the game.
Listen, I want to keep playing and keep ignoring what's happening.
Ten years ago.
Let's do it.
Yeah, yeah.
Two and a half stars.
2001 is the year.
It was number one at the box office this week?
To this very day.
Ten years ago.
It was a different day of the week, I believe.
It was a different world back then.
But, yeah.
The whole world was shaking up.
A lot of Americans were reconsidering their place in the world view.
Sure.
I know it.
I don't know it.
So, here's some of the things that Leonard says about this movie.
I don't know. So here's some of the things that Leonard says about this movie.
He says that it is, it winds up being overlong and bombastic.
Oh, boy.
And that it was known outside the U.S. by another title.
Oh, boy.
Yeah, those are some fantastic clues.
Fantastically confusing clues.
And you have
17 names?
17
names. 18 names.
18 names.
18 names.
I'll name it in
10.
Alright. Now we go to Tony, who says...
Seven.
Seven's a good bid on 18 names.
Should be able to do something with that.
Jimmy Pardo?
Six.
Strong six, strong.
Jimmy.
Yes, sir?
Name that movie!
I think, I don't know, maybe.
Okay, we'll see.
I'm going to need the, you know, this is Jeopardy style, I need the correct title.
These are the bot.
You can't go with the title that is known by elsewhere.
Two and a half stars.
Yeah. Bombastic. Overlong.. Two and a half stars. Yeah.
Bombastic.
Overlong.
Called something else outside the U.S.
Okay.
And your six names.
Yeah.
Out of 18.
Yeah.
People in this room are definitely going to know it.
They will.
Yes.
Whether you're one of those people.
I'm going to ask.
Here's the question.
David Bradley.
Zoe Wanamaker.
Julie Walters. Warwick Davis, Tom Felton.
What did I say?
Warwick?
You said Warwick.
It's Warwick.
But with a W in the middle?
Yeah.
Okay.
I can agree with that then.
As long as you were trying to act like there was no W in the middle of Warwick.
Oh, there's a W in the middle.
Yeah, yeah.
Tom Felton.
Am I pronouncing that right?
Or is it Fel-wa-ton?
And Sean
Biggerstaff.
Those are your six names.
Jimmy's making a
face like he's not going to come up with this.
Should make it a very
hollow victory for Scott Aukerman.
Is it Harry Potter?
Be more specific.
Fuck.
Seriously?
Harry Potter and the Temple of Doom.
I love when they pull Harry Potter's heart out of his chest.
Calimars up today.
Harry Potter and the sorcerer's hat.
He doesn't get more than that.
Come on.
He doesn't get more guesses. No, yeah, you'd have to come up with quicker.
But it sure was fun watching.
Sorcerer's stone?
Sorcerer's Soup.
It is Sorcerer's Stone, but it took too long.
Is it really?
Yeah.
He had too many guesses.
No, you can't have him go Sorcerer's Hat and everyone go, ooh, so close.
Yeah, that doesn't happen on Jeopardy.
I sure I tried.
I got an Alex Trebek curbside of this shit.
I'm impressed with myself that I knew that, for Christ's sake.
Yeah, yeah, we're all there.
You have a four-year-old child.
He doesn't watch that.
What does he watch?
Not that.
Yeah.
We watched the original.
Around 2001, his kid was probably watching World Trade Center
because he was showing some respect.
That movie didn't come out that fast.
Damn it.
This was the first movie when you were talking about the 9-11.
This was sort of the first movie that people went to in droves
and one could argue that it was because we needed escapist fare.
It was horrible.
No matter how shitty it was.
Horrible.
What's that?
I went to it in a van.
I didn't go in a drove.
Damn it, damn it, damn it.
I saw it at the, not the Village Theater in Westwood Village.
You don't say.
Yeah, well, I'm just playing the I know every place I've seen a movie game that you started earlier.
Okay, so that means, Scott Aukerman,
you're on the board with one point.
No one's rooting for me.
No one's rooting for me.
All I want is to actually play.
Let's play.
That's the best way to actually play,
is to play.
So let's see, that was between Scott
and Jimmy.
I walked out of that movie.
What?
I walked out of it.
Man's Chinese 6.
Had enough.
Walked out.
That's the one
with the chest thing, right?
There's a chest thing
going on in that movie?
Yeah, walked out.
I didn't care for that one
or the next one so much,
but then I grew into it.
Is that right?
Third one's a masterpiece.
I like it.
You love it.
The third one's really good, yeah.
And then the very last one's...
I'll revisit. All right. Okay The third one's really good, yeah. And then the very last one's good. I'll revisit.
All right.
Okay, so Tony, we'll start with you,
and then we will go to Scott,
because he challenged Jimmy last time around.
I'll throw in an interesting category for you,
because you guys are all skilled players.
My good friend Asparagus P,
a.k.a. Asparagusp, suggested this, and I've been running with it ever since,
a category called Zero Names. That's where if you pick this category, you get to go first.
I read the entire review, and your first bid has to be zero names or less. You have to go zero
or negative names. Do we get the year? Yeah, you get the year, you get everything.
But you just don't get any of the names
and then you have to go from there.
So it obviously...
Most of the time everybody knows what it is
and then it's a game of how many negative names you get.
Who gets the point if you get it wrong?
The person who challenged you.
Like if he's...
The bidding still continues from there.
It just starts at zero
which way are we
going right now
will Scott be
we're going at Scott
yeah
okay
yeah
just so you know
and then
for your other two
categories you can
choose between
Weezer on the
soundtrack
and
EW's
Star's Worst Movies
which one would you like I like all those I think I'm gonna go with the Star's Worst Movies. Which one would you like?
I like all those.
I think I'm going to go with the Star's Worst Movie.
Okay.
This movie is from 2008.
Leonard Maltin gives it two and a half stars.
So that wouldn't imply that it's the worst movie.
It goes right down the middle.
That this star ever made.
He says that it's supposed to be a caustic denunciation of commercialism,
but the result is formulaic and only intermittently successful.
Damn it.
Caustic denunciation of commercialism,
but the result is formulaic and only intermittently successful. Two and a half stars. Damn it. 12 names. So 12 people at least participated
on camera in this motion picture
that turned out to be somebody's
worst.
I'll start at 8.
Then we come to Scott, who's been
dying to play.
Here's his chance.
Caustic, you said?
Caustic, you said? Caustic.
I'll say seven names.
Let me come to Jimmy Pardo.
I know the movie.
It's the same deal. I don't know the... I can't pull the title. It's very caustic.
There was only that one caustic film in 2008.
Everybody in the room knows it
i can't i know oh oh yeah name it
how many names did you just give him seven oh boy seven names he handed in the game seven names
you really want to get into the tournament champions this way, Tony? Do you want to go in back door?
Touche.
Is this how you feel? Do you feel comfortable going in that way? Somebody handing you
a seat? Not me.
You have the points.
Drag him down with you.
Would you like to close again, Mr. Ackerman?
Caustic denunciation of consumer culture? Damnerman? Caustic denunciation of consumer culture?
Damn it.
Caustic denunciation of consumer-alism.
Alism?
Commercial.
Commercial.
Commercial.
Commercial.
Can I have your pen?
Lazyisms.
I'm going to write this down, what I think the title is.
What are you going to write it on?
Sarah's.
Sarah, is that okay?
Why do you keep trashing her art?
Okay, he's going to write down a guess
just to impress us all.
Well, only because I want to know if I would have gotten it right.
Well, you will know
and we could have trusted you, but I'm glad you wrote it down.
Two and a half stars, caustic
denunciation of commercialism
and the result is formulaic
and only intermittently successful
and out of 12 names you get
seven. And your seven
names are...
This is one of the worst films of the
star of this movie, or the worst film according to
one magazine. K.D.
Aubert?
I don't know because it doesn't have a W in it,
so I'm not sure.
This one I'm not sure if you
pronounce a W or not. Is it U harrelson or woody harrelson
is it illy nelson or willie nelson is it sarah ite or sarah right is it all these people in this
yes is it is it todd stash ick or todd stash wick every single fucking name has the w in it
that was fun while it lasts and. And Nathan Phillips. In eternity.
And Nathan Phillips is your last name.
So all those people are in it.
You say them again.
Yes.
K.D. O'Bear.
A-U-B-E-R-T.
Woody Harrelson.
Willie Nelson.
Sarah Wright.
Todd Stashwick.
And Nathan Phillips.
Those are your six names.
Six names remain.
Those names are a bunch of losers.
I know.
Nathan Phillips was in four movies.
Who?
Nathan Phillips was in four movies in 2008.
You know Nathan's work?
No.
No, I do not.
I'm not familiar with Nathan.
Nate Phillips, good man.
Okay, Scott.
Willie Nelson and Woody Harrelson.
They got high a lot.
They... What's up?
I'm just going to go see what Jimmy wrote
because I might as well be doing something while you do that.
I think I'm wrong, but
can you read that all right?
That might not even be the title of a movie.
What the fuck is that?
You know what?
I'm just going to guess because I have no idea.
I'm going to say Four Christmases.
No, that's incorrect.
Marshall is on Madden.
No, that's wrong.
That is my favorite Willie Nelson movie, though.
I have no idea.
I never saw it.
I get a point.
Yeah, I think you do, right? I movie, though. I have no idea. I never saw it. I get a point. Yeah, I think you do, right?
I do, yeah.
Yeah, you said name it,
and the movie is called Surfer Dude.
What?
Oh, Jesus.
Matthew McConaughey.
How do you choose the worst out of all his bullshit?
And then Leonard gave it two and a half stars,
so I imagine Leonard thinks failure to launch
or something is worse.
This game is rigged.
No one would have gotten Surfer Dude had it been a million movies.
Could have used all 12 names.
Nobody would have got it.
I don't know.
Woody Harrelson and Willie Nelson having such bad billing gave away to you that it was a fucking stoner thing.
You said that.
Sure.
So that narrows it down to like maybe how high.
And yet the existence of a movie named Surfer Dude was the thing I tripped up on.
Yeah, I don't know.
I don't know why you're not familiar with Surfer Dude,
but that was certainly.
What was the name of that Mike Judge movie
that Luke Wilson starred in?
What was the name of that?
Luke Wilson?
Idiocracy?
That's what you tried to write down?
I wrote down Idiocracy.
So I was wrong.
That's what I thought it was.
It sounds like it could have been.
Yeah, but you'll see the article maybe.
I don't know if you will, but it's big movie stars.
It's not Luke Wilson.
No offense.
They don't even say Owen Wilson's worst movie, and he's bigger than Luke.
Does it make you uncomfortable that I came here with Luke Wilson tonight?
Sitting up top.
No wonder you can't get Idiocracy out of your head.
You won't stop talking about it.
Did you see that?
Yes, Luke.
He's trying to suck up to him
by suggesting it's the worst film
he ever made.
I'd go with
Charlie's Angels 2, probably.
No, see Idiocracy.
It's horrible.
Idiocracy's got some
great stuff in it.
That's a great movie.
One of us is wrong, guys.
Out of three, yes.
Out of the three of us.
Alright.
That was super fun.
Who got what?
Jimmy got it.
Jimmy got a point.
Scott has a point.
Jimmy has a point.
No, no, no.
I have no points.
Yeah, you have a point.
I'm not even paying attention.
Alright, let's go.
Let's do this, Tony.
What else is new?
Yeah, we gotta wrap this up.
I get one more.
I go to the tournament. Let's do this. Yeah, I'm excited to get you into we got to wrap this up. I get one more. I go to the tournament.
Let's do this.
Yeah, I'm excited to get you into the tournament.
Remember, secondly, I said I don't want to get into the tournament.
Who's this go-to?
What happened just now?
I think Scott didn't get it.
I chose that category.
But he made you name it.
Jimmy did.
Yeah, so we start with Tony, and then we go to Jimmy.
Okay.
All right.
And Tony gets to pick between Scarlett Johansson's birthday
or that time of the movie,
period films,
or Zero Names.
The exciting Zero Names category.
Yeah, let's go Zero.
Let's go for it.
I like it.
Big finish.
I was just watching this on cable the other day.
Super, super holds up, if you ask me.
Is that the quote?
Tony gets all of the review.
Okay.
Two stars from Leonard.
Boo.
1978.
109 minutes.
Spoof of early 1960s college life is only sporadically funny.
It depends largely on Belushi's mugging as frat house animal.
Not nearly as roisterous or amusing as any issue of The Lampoon.
So he likes the magazine.
But it became a tremendous hit and spawned a number of truly terrible imitations
as well as the short-lived TV series Delta House.
So you could start the bidding at zero names,
but let's see how far the bidding can go
because there are
17 names
listed.
Just so I'm clear, if he says zero,
you can go negative one, negative two,
negative three.
Is that at the top? Yes.
I give you the star's name. Yeah, yeah.
Top, build, down. Okay. I could probably, star's name. Yeah, yeah. Top build down.
Okay.
I could probably, if I were involved in this, I might be able to get to four or five names in the right order, maybe.
But we'll see what Tony's got on his mind.
I'll go negative one.
Nice bid.
We might have a three-way tie.
Because I don't know if Jimmy has the nerve to go more negative than one.
You have to, Jimmy.
Come on.
I'll go negative two.
He says negative two, Scott.
I'm going to say name them.
You cock sucker!
You cock sucker! We're going to find out in one second.
Yeah, so all you've got to do is, what's the movie called?
What? I've got to do that too?
You don't think you know the name of the movie?
Animal House, yes.
Yes, yes, yes, okay.
And who is the top billed performer in Animal House, yes. Yes, yes, yes, okay. And who is the top-billed performer in Animal House?
Number one?
Oh, Jesus Christ.
They named him in the description, I believe.
Scott, why are you helping?
I was doing a little bit there.
Oh, that was a bit?
All right, John Belushi.
Okay.
Then who's second-b build in Animal House from 1978?
For the win. Boy, I'm so torn.
You got some
names in mind? I've got three names
in mind.
Oh.
This is for my spot.
I have a choice. Here's the thing. The one that I
think it might be, it might
be an and. He might be. He's either second build or it that I think it might be, it might be an and.
He might be.
He's either second build or it's and this guy.
Oh, I see what you're saying.
That's an interesting way to look at it.
Sometimes Leonard will mix it up.
He doesn't necessarily go with the... Jimmy, don't take my spot.
I don't think I'm going to take your spot.
I think you're going to hold on to your seat.
I'm going to roll the dice with Donald Sutherland.
Tim Etheson.
Oh!
I love your later correct guesses.
Is it Tim Etheson?
It was Tim Etheson.
Oh, fuck!
Oh, fuck!
Is it Tim Matheson?
It was Tim Matheson.
Yeah, Tim Matheson, of course, who played Otter.
And then...
Who's McGill?
The third is John Vernon, who played Dean Warmer.
Then Verna Bloom, who played Mrs. Dean Warmer.
Sutherland, for man.
Tom Hulse, who was...
Amadeus.
What's his name? Amadeus.
He rocked several people.
Cesar De Nova, who played the car dealership mafia guy in the movie.
Bruce McGill.
Peter Riegert, Stephen First, then your Donald Sutherland,
and Karen Allen, Sarah Holcomb, Bruce McGill. Karen Allen's all the way down there.
Yeah, yeah.
It was a big cast.
A lot of people went on to be still known.
Mark Metcalf, Niedermeyer, of course, went on to be the maestro on Seinfeld.
And, well, that was exciting, you guys.
Congratulations on a very exciting finish.
Extra long episode for the listeners who enjoy extra long episodes.
Extra so.
I managed once again to win without ever guessing the movie correctly.
It's beautiful how you do it, and we'll see you again in the next tournament of championships.
