Doug hates candy wrappers, squeaky babies, sticky seeds
With 50 azepop or kernels in his teeth
There's still not one that he won't see
Because Doug loves movies
Hey, hey, hey, everybody.
My name is Doug, and I love movies.
This is Doug Loves Movies.
Sweet.
Coming to you once again after I don't know how many times
from Esther's Follies in downtown Austin, Texas!
It's Monday, March 11, 3-11, 3-3-11, 2024,
and South by Southwest is in mid-swing.
We're at the halfway point about thereabouts,
not really, Couple days.
Forget it, Doug. Move on.
South by Southwest comedy continues tonight and
tomorrow. Are you seeing a lot of comedy
shows, everybody?
I bring out the best for these shows
out here and I have a great
time every year at
South by. but now that I
put it all the way down on the floor I need to get the prize bag and tell you
what is on the line today somebody in the audience is not only gonna win a bag
that many of you probably already have because you're at South by Southwest and
they give you one in the first day used Used to be full of crap, the bag that they give you.
Now it's just an empty bag that they just hand you
and go, you go out and fill it up
with the crap you find while you're here in Austin.
And I brought a bunch of stuff from California
to give away today.
The quote-unquote prize bag has,
I mean, for starters,
I got some dude wipes.
It's a single use, I think,
but it's a, yes,
it's one flushable wipe,
but just the name dude wipes alone
made me feel like that is
something worthy of gifting.
A hip flask for people
who still want to sneak booze
into things for some reason.
Yeah, we got some back there. Some Douglas movie stickers, a license plate that you can't put on
your car really because that would, people would go, that's fake, but it says high society on it.
high society on it.
Really bad choice of something to put on your car.
Oh, was anybody here when I demolished James Adomian
in the Wits End Game Show presented by
Samantha Bee? This was my
it barely fit over my fat head
this medal, this honorable medal that I got.
I kept some
of the prizes they gave to me, like the
inflatable trophy, so don't
feel bad about taking the prizes.
Oh, from my hotel room, a copy
of Texas Monthly.
And then
from our friends at Hamper,
a rolling tray,
and these are two things from Peacemaker that I love.
Oh, wait.
I might be not saving the best for last.
But this is a $5 gift certificate from Torchies.
Yeah, it expires on March 31st of this year.
expires on March 31st of this year.
And then finally, from our friends at Peacemaker,
this thing's called a clutch,
and it's like a water pipe that also has a little area to keep your lighter and the weed itself
all in one rubber device.
Speaking of rubber devices,
who doesn't love a wacky pipe?
It's finally somebody made a long camouflage-colored smoking utensil, smoking device.
I mean, this is almost too beautiful to give away, but hopefully they'll hook me up with more.
All that stuff is going to be won by one person today.
And to help determine who wins that, I've got to get my guests out here.
But before that, it's time for Doug Plugs.
Doug Plugs! Doug Plugs! Doug Plugs!
Holy shit, thank you. You're so into it.
I can't wait to tell you about shows that you probably won't go to
because you live here or somewhere I'm not going to mention.
Douglas Movies is back at the Lab at the Improv in Los Angeles
on Tuesday, March 19th.
And we're also doing a Douglas Movies once again
at Zany's in Rosemont, Illinois, O'Hare adjacent
on Saturday, May the 4th, be with you at 420.
All of my dates and dates, oh shit,
and links can be found at douglovesmovies.com.
That's douglovesmovies.com.
Yeah.
Go call him.
While it, that dancing?
Shh. Let's hear it's dancing? Shh.
Let's hear it for Mike, everybody.
Apologies to the listener
that I didn't get the mic-to-mic quick enough.
But everybody loves some mic-to-mic action,
that's for sure.
All right, let's get the guests out here.
What do you say?
What a terrific lineup today.
We got Joe DeRosa, Chris Gethard,
Beth Stelling, and Mr. Leonard Maltin.
Thank you. Hey, everybody.
Hello.
How's it going?
Good.
Let's meet everybody individually and alphabetically by first name.
Oh.
Yeah, that's right.
She's got specials on Netflix,
and Max, give it up for Beth Stalley!
Hi, Beth.
Good to see you again.
What are your specials called?
The Max one is called Girl Daddy,
and then the new one is on Netflix,
and it's called if you didn't want
me then okay like a sentence yeah i would see it movies itself by that are just sentences like i
love you forever i don't understand you i was excited when i saw y2k i was like oh that's simple
easy to remember runner-up was just Doug, but I didn't ask you,
and so I just had to go with the other one.
Oh, okay.
What's your favorite thing, best-selling,
that's happened to you or that you've seen
at South by Southwest this particular visit?
Ooh.
Okay, moving on to our next...
Even during the non-game show part, I like
to keep it going.
What do you think? You're going to pass? Oh, we can come back
to you. That's fun. I love that
plan. Also joining
us today,
he...
He's an introvert from
New Jersey. Give it up for Chris
Gethard, everybody.
That's probably the most accurate intro I've ever been given on a podcast.
Right?
It's from your ex-formerly Twitter bio.
Yeah, that's fair.
Yeah, I got it straight from the Gethard's mouth or your Twitter account.
You probably made that bio when it was Twitter.
And thank you for being here today.
I feel very lucky to be here.
Thank you for having me.
Why do you feel so lucky?
Just to, you know, be included at this stage of life is a nice feeling.
Thank you so much.
I'm well past my peak and it's nice that you would even think of me.
Thank you so much.
You were like top of the list.
This was when I looked at who's available,
which comedians are at the festival.
These are the four people I picked,
and you all said yes.
You got your top four choices?
I got my dream team.
I'll show you the fucking text.
I could prove it, but I said to Charlie,
this would be my dream team.
And then all four of you are here.
It really shows the value of aiming low.
Hey!
In my case.
I didn't say my insane
dream team or my wildly
impossible dream team.
Even the 1992 dream team, some guys
came off the bench and I am
like the John Stockton of this
dream team. I understand my
role. Alright, well I'm glad there's one person
that was hoping for a sports reference.
The rest of us came here for...
Larry Bird.
Movies.
Look at you go.
So, Chris, what's been your favorite thing
that's happened to you?
You got to think about it since I asked Beth earlier.
Yeah.
Has there been a good thing?
Have you seen any movies
or done anything?
No, I just got here yesterday
pretty late in the day.
Okay.
So I did a couple shows,
but I tell you what,
being at the age I'm at today,
I caught up with a friend
who lives in Austin.
Right?
That's nice.
I went and hung out
with a friend.
Yeah.
He happens to,
this is because I'm a weirdo
he happens to be a jujitsu instructor
so we wrestled in his garage
this is true
I can show you photographic
evidence of this if you'd like
and I threw my back out
my back hurts a little bit because I fought a black belt
in his garage
and sometimes I forget that I'm a little bit of a strange cat.
See,
an answer like that is why
you're on my dream team.
Haven't seen any
movies. Did fight a man
in his garage.
Lost the fight. It's perfect.
Definitively lost.
He
pretended to be a veterinarian on Better Call Saul, and he's a bar owner, IRL.
It's Joe DeRosa, everybody.
Hi, Doug.
Hey, Joe.
How are you?
What's this band I keep hearing about?
I keep hearing you use the word band, but I don't know any more details. I have a band
called Salsa Windfall, and we're playing
a show tonight and a show tomorrow night.
Salsa Windfall?
Salsa Windfall.
Salsa? Salsa.
Windfall. Windfall.
Were you like, let's go...
Sorry, Chris. What was your question?
Mild, medium, spicy salsa?
Like, salsa.
More like the attitude of salsa.
The vibe of salsa.
Maybe like spicy?
Spicy, perhaps.
Maybe we're not in a fucking salsa box.
Maybe we have our own definition of the word.
I mean, I don't know anybody that wouldn't want to have their own salsa windfall.
I mean, it's definitely something.
We were really high 25 years ago.
And we had recorded some songs, my friend Paul and I, who's here.
And we were eating tacos.
And we said, what are we going to call the band?
And he picked up a jar of salsa. And he said, what if we called it Salsa Windfall?
And my vocabulary is so bad, I thought it was a fart joke.
And I was like, that's great.
I guess it is.
Yeah.
All right.
So now the band never really existed until now?
No, no.
It's been around.
It's been a thing the whole time.
It's been a thing that nobody's cared about for 25 years.
And now we're in South by Southwest.
Who the fuck do we think we are?
We're friends.
How is this that I'm finding out, you know, why am I finding out now that you're in a band?
I just never felt.
We've even been at South by Southwest together before.
I never felt the right time to tell you that. I just never felt... We've even been at South by Southwest together before. I never felt
the right time
to tell you that.
I never found a time
to say the words.
I guess I wasn't
eavesdropping enough
because I just heard
you say band
to other people.
Yeah, no,
I'm here primarily
to do shows
with the band
and then I got to hop
on some other stuff
like this.
Worked out perfect.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We're playing tonight.
Come see.
Where are we at tonight?
Mohawk.
Mohawk. Come through. Where are we tomorrow? Valhalla.
Tomorrow. Come through.
Wow. Please come through. Are you playing an instrument
or your voice? I sing. Your voice
is the instrument. Yes.
You'd think I would treat it better.
But no. I smoked 87
Marlboro Lights last night.
No!
In the backyard of the creek.
Do you wear a fun outfit or do you go in your street clothes?
Ooh, that's a good question.
We'll have to come to find out.
Some outfits might come into play.
I love bands that put on outfits.
Yeah.
Get it together, guys.
Abba.
I can watch anybody play an instrument
in a t-shirt
We flare it up a little bit
It's a fun time
You have a favorite thing that's happened to you
or you've seen or done here at South by?
Once again I'm disappointed
by the festival
What did it do to you this time?
Because I just wish there were more things
happening Doug
There's just nothing to do If any Because I just wish there were more things happening, Doug.
There's just nothing to do.
If any producers are listening,
there's an empty broom closet at Starbucks right now.
Get fucking Spoon down there to do a set real quick.
Could they cram any more shit into this festival?
There's like 87 music shows and then I'm walking down the street and they're like, well, but what about Bitcoin too?
You're like, stop!
Stop it!
We don't need a tent for fucking
slack on Congress.
I love the
cupping of the microphone
to get the message
more directly into people's ears.
I need to tell you this.
You've been disregarding everything else that's happened,
but this is important.
But great job, Joe.
We've got to introduce our fourth guest.
Yes.
But first, real quick, Beth,
did you come up with a favorite thing?
No.
Okay.
No, I thought you were going to say that.
I know there was a lot of distractions.
I know you weren't thinking about that.
You were listening to the other guests.
Now that I'm thinking about it,
I wrestled a man in his garage.
I forgot.
I forgot that part.
Now I worry that your special
might be word for word Chris Gethard things
that he said.
No, yeah.
I've mostly been...
Nine minute long emo stories
with very few punchlines? That type of thing?
I think this is
always my way of finding out that comedians
come here and the last thing they do
is stuff that's happening at the festival.
They all just sort of
run around the outskirts.
I also got here kind of late-ish
yesterday and I went straight to a podcast that I did, Jocular,
and then I had a show here.
Yeah.
And then I've just been...
You've been doing stuff.
Making love.
You've said your favorite thing that you've had so far was your show.
Did the show go well?
It was fine.
It was here, and it was fine.
Not great?
I'm in an acquired taste, you know?
I mean, I was putting myself out there.
Right.
I can't say that they met me halfway.
I got you.
I got you.
I did one like that last night, too.
We did.
We were both on that show. We were on a show together. Wait, last night, too. We did. We were both on that show.
We were on a show together.
Wait, last night here at 10?
No.
We were at a Sunset.
I haven't been there yet.
How's the vibe?
Are the lights as bright as here?
No, dimmer lights.
Okay.
Yeah.
I'm already going to do better, I know it.
Hey, Beth, can I tell you something about this theater?
Yeah.
It's haunted.
Esther's Folly's been here for quite a long time.
Yeah. It's haunted. Esther's Folly. It's been here for quite a long time. Yeah.
And they do like a variety,
topical variety music
show here that's very popular.
And I
had to get them to turn their regular
stage lights down
by 50%
to get it this
level of brightness.
It could be 50% brighter.
Are you serious?
That's what they perform under when they're
doing their follies.
They have makeup
on and shit.
I'm still recovering from last night's show.
Honestly, I feel like I have a deep wrinkle here
from this.
From squinting.
They're very nice to accommodate me
having turned way down.
I didn't know
if people were here.
I bet if the lights
were dimmer,
there'd be no follies
because they could see clearly.
I'll laugh at that
for you, Joe.
Thank God the person who enjoyed it has a microphone.
I like this.
Pass out the microphones to the audience members
that are having the most fun, like Mike over there.
All right, we've delayed this too long.
This has now become suspenseful.
Who is this man next to me?
Who is next to Beth?
Who is a regular contributor, guest, call him what you will, but don't call him Len.
It's Leonard Maltin, everybody!
I wrote down that I think of you as the godfather of Doug Loves Movies.
Because you instilled a love of movies in me through your work with the Leonard Maltin Review Guides
that me and my family would own and argue over.
No, not two and a half stars, that was three.
Those kind of arguments.
And I'd be like, really?
Half a star? We're arguing about it?
How you doing, Leonard?
I'm doing fine.
That's good.
I'm here with you guys on stage.
Right? It's so fun up here.
And I haven't been blinded completely yet.
But I'm ready to confess to a crime.
That's the vibe that I'm ready to confess to a crime that's the vibe
that I'm getting from you
tell us the truth
we're going to get it out of you
we're going to get the truth out of you
go ahead and turn him to a hundred
I'm kidding, I'm kidding, please don't
we don't get blown off the stage
it'd be like those old sound commercials
where the guy in the chair and his drink blows away.
All right, Laird, esteemed film critic,
you must have attended
at least one motion picture
since your arrival here
at South by Southwest.
Two, to be precise.
Two movies.
I saw...
Did you see a winner?
I saw two good ones.
Two good ones.
Two for two.
Here we go. I saw two good ones. Two good ones. Two for two. Here we go.
I saw My Dead Friend Zoe on Saturday.
Directed by our friend Natalie Morales.
Very cool.
At the Paramount Theater.
It's fun just to be in the Paramount Theater.
It's so cool.
So fun.
I like to point out the Houdini hole.
There's like a hole in the ceiling,
a little tiny hole of the Paramount Theater
from when Houdini did like a trick where he needed to have some rope come through the ceiling, a little tiny hole of the Paramount Theater from when Houdini did a trick where he needed to have
some rope come through the ceiling.
Oh, really? I call it the Houdini
hole. That's cool.
Might be made up.
Might just be a hole.
I just believe some guy
sitting next to me.
It's just termites that you
created a legend around?
I mean, he did perform there, so it's plausible,
but I don't know if it's true.
And then I went out to Alamo Lamar,
the Alamo Drafthouse on Lamar.
Wonderful facility.
To see a really good documentary about Dory Previn,
who I've always admired, called On My Way to Where.
And it's a very good film, and I hope it has legs,
I hope it has a long life,
because people who don't know about her should,
and people who are already fans of hers will learn a lot.
Right on.
Thanks.
I also, you know, before we get into the game portion of the show,
I'd like to ask everybody to recommend just one movie, something that you think people would enjoy.
It could be old, new, borrowed, blue.
Joe, do you have a movie that you've seen lately or recently that you would recommend?
Yeah, well, it's a rewatch,
but I want to highly recommend it.
I just got the 4K
of Conan the Barbarian.
I've been hearing that it's out there.
Like, I've heard more than one person
talk about it.
But this, I've seen Conan twice.
I saw it once
and I was like,
yeah, it's pretty cool.
I rewatched it
and had to pause the movie
to text my friend
that I do a movie podcast
and I said,
this might be the greatest movie
that's ever been made.
It's so amazing.
It is a pitch perfect
sword and sorcery movie.
It's Arnold at his best. It looks amazing. John is a pitch perfect sword and sorcery movie. It's Arnold at his best.
It looks amazing. John
Milius, it's so well directed.
It's so perfectly written. It's so fun.
James Earl Jones as the
villain.
Doom. Very scary.
Yeah. He's scary.
And turns into a snake.
Yeah, he does. It's just, it's an awesome
Then he gets on a plane.
What's that? Then he gets on a plane. Yeah, then he gets on a plane. Once he's a snake. Yeah, he does. It's just, it's an awesome. Then he gets on a plane. What's that?
Then he gets on a plane.
Yeah, then he gets on a plane.
Once he's a snake.
Yeah.
That's what that movie is, right?
Yeah.
It's a guy from Conan
got on a plane.
Some other snakes.
But I got this set,
it's that and Destroyer.
Destroyer's not quite as good.
Right.
And then there was Red Sonja.
Did you like that?
Red Sonja I've never seen,
but Arnold has said on record
several times
it's the worst movie
he's ever been in.
He's been in
Herculean Lees in New York.
Think about that statement
for a minute.
Let that sink in.
Yeah.
The worst movie
he's ever been in.
Yeah.
That has power.
Yeah.
That's quite a statement.
They should feel really bad about themselves, the people involved in that movie. He's not, that's quite a statement. They should feel really bad about themselves,
the people involved in that movie.
He's just Eraser.
Nope. Terminator Salvation.
Nope. Terminator Genesis.
Nope.
You're naming something.
Anyway, do yourself
a favor and watch
Conan the Barbarian in 4K
if you can. Yeah, definitely reach out to me if you do it
and let me know how it worked out for you.
Is that sarcasm?
I might watch it again.
Why are you being shitty about my movie?
Well, because I think you already said
the words perfect sword and sorcery movie,
so that lets some people out.
Because some people are just already
not interested in that.
You know what I mean?
Whatever your least favorite genre
is, if somebody goes, it's the perfect
your least favorite genre,
maybe you go, okay, great.
Slow Burn is my least
favorite kind of movie these days.
But if somebody
tells me beforehand,
it's the perfect slow burn
I go there's not such a thing
because I'm already not happy
that there's a slow burn
what's going to be perfect about it
and sword and sorcery is up there with the word
accounting for turn offs
you know
it's weird too because I really like fantasy movies
and I think a lot of people do see a lot of fantasy
movies but for some reason sword Sword and Sorcery,
that's another reason why I do think people should watch
Conan the Barbarian again.
It's because you're saying that it feels more like a real movie
than a lot of those kind of movies do.
It feels like an absolute film.
This is the last thing I'll say about it.
Conan the Barbarian is the movie
that should represent every 80s video store.
Every 80s video store,
when you think back and remember that
and the cutouts and the fun
and the artwork on the boxes,
practical movie being made,
practical effects,
that is the one where you go,
this is every,
that and Escape from New York
are the two perfect,
those are two perfect.
All right, that's too many recommendations for me.
We have to move on for one recommendation from Chris.
Oh no.
I had two.
I'm sorry.
You have to pick one.
No,
he can do.
I missed the boat.
Two friends of mine wrote a movie.
I know everybody already saw it.
I'm,
I'm the father of a toddler.
So I'm,
my movie consumption is much slower than it used to be.
I'm catching up on things I missed I just saw
Dix the Musical and I thought it was
so fucked up and insane and
aggressive and like
balls to the wall funny
with jokes but also just in its
existence kind of a political statement
I won't spoil
it but the chorus of the last song
is one of the most aggressive
things I've ever seen committed to film
and I cannot believe A24 put
their name on it in a way where I'm like
kudos to you because that's fucking
punk rock move.
Those are two of your buddies wrote it? Yeah, Aaron Jackson
and Josh Sharp were both UCB guys and
Josh Sharp was a student of mine at UCB.
Okay, yes. So that's why it's so good.
Dick's the musical. Yeah, yeah.
He taught him everything he knows
I had nothing to do with it
but that show was a UCB show
it was a show called
Identical Twins
at UCB
can I do one little quick one and say
I know everybody in this room clearly already loves it
but one movie I did get to see in the theater this season
was Godzilla Minus One
which was the fucking best.
That movie was so good.
It won the Oscar last night. This episode
won't come out until next Monday, so
people will be really sick about hearing about the Oscars
by then, but yeah,
it won Best Special Effects.
And all the people that went up to accept,
they all had toy Godzillas in their hands
and really cool shoes.
They all had the same kind of weird shoes on.
Wait, the Oscars happened?
Yeah.
Last night.
Last night.
Yeah.
I don't know why they didn't call up, make a phone call to Texas.
Hey, South By, can you pick another date this year?
Because we want to do the Oscars.
Because the Oscars have been during South By twice now,
and I don't like it at all.
I hope it happens earlier, because first of all,
March is way too long of an awards season.
It should be in February.
But then also, not during South By,
because there's no movie premiere.
Like, nothing fun happens movie-wise on the day
the Oscars are happening, because no stars
are going to come in to do the red
carpet and stuff. So it's
almost like a day off for
South by Film in the middle
of only five days.
What's that, Beth? That's kind of why I hadn't seen
anything exciting yet. That's very
true. That's why my answer was so
bad.
Don't dwell on that.
I can't.
Tell us the name of a movie that you'd like to recommend.
Ooh.
I love the movie
Migration.
It's a bit of an
animated film and it stars one of our
friends Kumail Nanjiani and also
one of my not friends Elizabeth Banks
but I'd love to be friends if she wants to.
And I just loved it.
It was so fun.
It was cool to hear Camille's voice as a duck.
It was so sweet.
And also Suncoast, Laura Chin's movie.
Oh, that's good.
Oh, okay.
That's really good.
So everyone's just going to say two movies now.
I see where this is headed.
Yeah.
Leonard, please do three.
Please do three movies.
Just to make Doug happy.
He's already done two.
He's already on for two.
So something outside of the festival, Leonard,
would you care to take her Suncoast?
Did you like that?
Suncoast is very good.
They gave it a one-week theater run,
but it was really made for Hulu.
Yes.
And it's very, very good.
Laura Linney, and in a smallish part, Woody Harrelson,
but he's very good.
Exactly.
And the young lady who turns out to be Tandy Newton's daughter.
Oh, wow, I don't know if I knew that.
I didn't know that when I was watching the movie.
That's wonderful.
I know she's in one other thing.
Now I can't remember what she was also in.
Anyway, it's really good.
Yeah.
And Laura has a book called Acne that's an incredible read.
Sun Coast.
Sun Coast.
One word?
One word.
Yeah.
Okay.
Ask for it by name.
Then my friend Monica Martin sang a song in it.
She's my best friend.
It's great.
In a scene in a limo.
Oh.
She's seen the cover
of Green Gloves.
It's really good.
Can I say something?
I also like...
I was about to say something,
but yes, please.
Oh, I didn't know you were.
I was about to throw in a commercial, but what do you got?
Oh, it seemed like you looked off in disgust.
No, I was just making sure whatever we were talking about was done before moving on.
I just wanted to compliment Leonard, not to blow smoke.
Yeah.
But you mentioned Dream Team earlier.
This is really cool to be up here with you, man.
You're part of the Avengers
of movie critics.
It's you, Rex Reed.
It's like if there were three Avengers.
You are the three amigos
of film critics, Leonard Baum.
Or some other group
of three. At least they didn't go with the
Stooges, but yes.
Very kind. That was very sweet of you, Joe. I'm serious.'t go with the Stooges, but yes.
That's very kind.
That was very sweet of you, Joe. I'm serious.
It's really...
We don't think you're kidding.
Hey, I'm here for music, not comedy, people.
Come see my band tonight, please.
Please, just come see it.
Please.
I should introduce you that way.
Don't raise any comedy expectations.
Wait, but you don't sing acapella ever, do you?
Yeah, it's all acapella Irish folk music.
No, I was just going to say, you can't sing here for us now. No, it's like a Bobby McFerrin kind of band.
I play the instruments on my body.
And your body's not available right now to demonstrate. No, I'm not going to sing right now. Your body's not available right now to demonstrate.
No, no.
I'm not going to sing right now.
Your body's off duty right now.
This is just fun times.
I'm back.
Listen, Doug.
What's that, Leonard?
The Oscars last night,
there was a nominated film
that hasn't really played yet.
It just qualified
for Best Animated Feature
called Robot Dreams.
Mm-hmm.
And it's really good.
It was made by a Spanish filmmaker
who I guess lived in New York before 9-11.
And that's what he is evoking here.
It's from a graphic novel, I believe,
or in the style of a graphic novel.
Yeah, just the brief clip they showed,
the animation was really cool.
Oh, it's really cool looking and cool in every way.
Robot dreams.
And what did you think about migration?
Did you see migration?
I did not.
That's why I am silent.
Okay.
Well, thank you for all those wrecks, those hot wrecks.
And we will be right back after these hot messages.
We are back, and yeah, give it up for...
Give it up for sitting through advertisements.
During the break here at Esther's,
we picked people that brought some fun name tags and such
that will be played on behalf of during the games.
Beth is playing for Zach Widow.
Chris is playing for Raising Andy Zona.
Joe is playing for Charles in Charge of Comedians.
And Leonard is playing for Cody the Pooh.
What's the title of that horror movie?
Blood and Honey?
Yeah.
So the whole title is Winnie the Pooh, colon, blood and honey? Or is it just Pooh, blood and Honey? Yeah. So the whole title is Winnie the Pooh, colon, Blood and Honey?
Or is it just Pooh, Blood and Honey?
I think it's fully Winnie.
It's like the sequel to Eat, Pray, Love?
I might have to stop for today.
It's not going to get any better than that for me.
Okay.
All right.
So that's who y'all are playing for.
And they're going to go home with this bag that they probably own the same bag already because they're attending the festival.
But maybe are any of the people that are being played for locals that aren't all badged up?
You guys?
Okay.
Look at them. All right. Good for you. aren't all badged up. You guys? Okay, look at them.
All right, good for you.
All right, here we go.
First game we're going to play today is called Purple Rain Man.
Oh, people love it.
This is a movie mashup title game.
Some of you may have played it before on episodes in the past i will
name the third build people left to right of a mashup movie title that i put together that goes
from left to right yell out just the people on stage yell out your guesses whenever they come to
you third build is pretty tough,
but then I'll say who the second build people are.
You can still guess if you want.
Then I'll tell you the top build people.
So now you know the three build people
from the first half of the title
and the three from the second.
Hopefully you can put it all together.
Yell out the right answer.
Okay.
He says, okay.
I get it.
Thumbs up from Joe.
The left to right part was confusing
It's a hard game to describe quickly
So I want to make sure it sunk in
So like Purple Rain Man
Right
Purple Rain is the first part
Top building that would be Prince
And Rain Man
Is Dustin Hoffman
Would be top building that
So you're starting with third bill
of the second half of the mashup?
No, I'm starting with the third bill
of both, but going left to right.
Again, the left to right
part is...
I don't think you need the left to right part.
First half of the title, second half of the title?
Got it. Okay.
I got it.
I've never even described it left to right like that before,
so thank you for pointing out
the flaw in that description.
I thought I was improving it
and making it easy to understand.
Got it.
I apologize in advance to Zach.
This is just
the first game, Beth. Don't worry.
They're only going to get harder.
I mean, this is a tough game, but, don't worry. They're only going to get harder. I mean, this is a tough
game, but I think somebody's going to
get it, so here we go.
Third build.
First half of the title, then second half of the title.
Alison Brie
and Yancey
Butler.
From the audience.
Yeah, you're right. This is not easy.
But if anybody in the audience
does think of it, please don't.
Yancey Butler.
Third build in a movie
that you've heard of.
Or maybe even seen.
And loved.
Too many clues.
You can guess now, but nobody knows it
at this point.
American Die. I'll tell you the second billed people.
I am legend of Billie Jean.
See, that's the kind of guess we're looking for.
As incorrect as it is.
He did take two titles.
Currently still winning.
Technically still winning because I'm in it.
Yeah, he's in it.
Nobody else has jumped off the dock into the lake yet.
I'm at a loss.
Are we doing two movies?
I mean, if I'm saying American Die, I mean hard.
American Die hard.
There, now you got it.
Now you got the idea of it.
I don't know what American Die is.
Yancey Butler.
You mean American Pie?
American Pie hard.
Come out to the coast, fuck a pie, have a few laughs.
Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker.
Yippee-ki-yay.
All right, second build.
Let's focus.
I'm trying.
This should really help, because how often does this happen?
Second build.
Kevin Hart.
I don't remember the first one.
And Lance Hendrickson.
So the first movie's got Alison Brie and Kevin Hart.
Oh!
And the second movie's got Yancey Butler.
I mean, yeah.
And Lancey Hendrickson.
Jumanji I feel That was fun though
But that's incorrect
Get hard times
Incorrect
Okay but that felt close
It felt like he was excited.
There was something to that.
Yeah, I didn't want to give away what something there was to it.
Here's the top billed people.
Will Ferrell.
Huh?
Yep.
And Jean-Claude Van Damme.
Get hard target.
Yes!
I knew you'd know it!
I got you there, you motherfucker.
I got you there.
Okay, that's true.
I got you there.
What was it?
Get Hard?
Target.
And I only put together Get Hard
because my name spells Get Hard phonetically.
Yeah, that's why I do it.
Had a feeling, you son of a bitch.
Yeah, we discovered that another time when you were on.
I always love when it loops back around in life.
But congratulations, Joe DeRosa.
He figured it out and yelled it out.
And so he wins.
And guess what?
He just gets to go first in the next game.
That's all he won.
Not really that big of a deal.
But it is a fun game.
I don't think Beth still doesn't understand
the game.
We're off of that game. It doesn't matter.
Pretend you were on Jeopardy and now
we're moving over to Wheel.
Let's go with the Wheel.
And then whatever is the easiest game show.
But actually, it all
can be hard. You never know what you're going to know.
I just didn't know the second movie. I understood the game.
Okay.
I didn't mean that to be derogatory.
You're not a Jean-Claude Van Damme fan?
No.
No.
So then why would you know it?
I didn't grow up with that.
It's a Jean-Claude Van Damme movie.
He's in New Orleans.
He can do the splits between two parking meters.
Okay.
Right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, you split between...
Right now, I feel like a 1980s movie.
Clueless.
You were on assignment reviewing movies when Hard Target came out.
Did you have to see that one, or did you just have one of the Maltins minions watching?
Okay, so this next game is called
ABC Deez Nuts!
Nice.
Which, as a title, doesn't deserve applause,
but it is a
fun game.
It's a spelling game
of sorts.
I'm going to tell you what the thing is
that we're about to spell.
And then we'll start with Joe.
And he'll have the first letter in that
thing. And you just have to name
any movie that begins with that letter.
And we move on to Chris with the
next letter. He has to name any movie
that begins with that letter. But there's a
theme, Joe.
And I have written down in advance The next letter, he has to name any movie that begins with that letter. But there's a theme, Joe. Okay.
And I have written down in advance one movie title for each of these letters.
So whoever matches that title when it gets to them, they win the whole game automatically.
Oh, so it's also random.
But if you say a name of a movie that does begin with that letter, you stay in the game.
So it's pretty easy to stay in the game.
Okay, I like this too. And you don't tell us
the theme, I assume. No, that you have
to figure out, and I bet you will.
Okay. Just like you figured
out Get Hard Target.
I have faith in you
that you'll figure out the theme.
But then, figuring out the movie to match,
and that's in that theme, that'll be the tricky
part. Okay. And the thing we're
spelling, so you'll have
kind of an idea what letter's going to be yours as we go
through. Okay. We're spelling...
He's going to be so exhausted, he's not going to be able to sing
tonight. That's true. That's true. This is a
lot of work. I also just pointed at you
because I was like, oh, I get it. Beth Spelling.
Because I forgot your name was Stelling.
I thought it was Spelling for a second.
And I thought you were doing a play on her name
and you're not at all.
Not at all.
I like where your head's at.
Yeah, because you did it with Get Hard.
Yeah, don't worry about that.
It's not going to happen again.
I'm not going to do any plays on anybody's names
except for what I'm about to say.
What we're spelling is Maltin on Movies.
So the first letter is
M to Joe. Mask.
Mask. Just
blurt out mask, not the mask.
No, because that would start with a T,
Doug. Exactly.
You know how this works. You don't know who
you're fucking with today.
I think I do. I think I'm
fucking with somebody who understands rules.
Yeah, M. Like you know how it works, and I am agreeing. I came to do. I think I'm fucking with somebody who understands rules. Yeah, yeah.
Like, you know how it works, and I am agreeing.
I came to do two things at South by Southwest.
Sing and play a fucking game show.
So let's do this right now.
I thought that was going to get a laugh.
Minus A.
You got nothing.
They were just waiting for bubble gum or kicking ass
or some sort of twist on that old expression.
And I'm all out of game shows.
Yeah.
They were just waiting for a punchline.
That's all they were doing.
I forgot how to do...
It'd be funny if you get up there tonight
and forget how to sing and just do your act.
Just tell them stories stories all the band watches
the guitar starts
I bought a plant the other day
what is going on?
what is happening?
so we're spelling the phrase Malton on movies?
yeah so he was M
so I'm going to tell you what I wrote down
because now you can start thinking about
what the theme must be
I'll tell you right now you can start thinking about what the theme must be. Oh, you tell us.
Yeah, I'll tell you right now that Joe did not match,
but I did appreciate the guess.
But I wrote down
Moonlight.
Okay.
Moonlight.
So the next letter is A
and it goes to you, Chris.
Name any movie
that begins with A
that you think
would also have something
in common with Moonlight.
This is making me nervous.
Something with Moonlight. Argo?
Let me just double
check here. That is the answer!
You win!
The game's
over?
Jesus. The fucking champ is here.
The fucking champ
is here. I've been playing it real low-key.
You win the whole game.
I've been playing it low-key and low-status,
but that was just to lull you all
into a false sense of complicity.
The fucking nature boy has arrived, everybody.
I've never been more stressed
than I was leaving the movie Argo.
I feel like my shoulders...
I thought you were going to say having to go next in that game.
No.
I thought this would last a little longer, so Argo, fuck yourself.
That's what they say in the movie.
Worried people forgot, thought I was being overly aggressive.
But great job, Chris.
I knew somebody would get it eventually,
because it's all movies that have won Best Picture,
spelling out Malton on movies.
So we got Lawrence Arabia, Titanic,
In the Heat of the Night, Nomadland, Oppenheimer,
No Country for Old Men, Million Dollar Baby,
Out of Africa, Vest Side Story,
because no movie that begins with W,
has won an Oscar for Best Picture.
Everything, Everywhere, All at Once, It Happened One Night.
What about West Side Story?
And Spotlight.
It became a movie.
What about it?
I don't know.
I felt like maybe West Side Story could have been a good one.
For which?
What part?
Just the theme.
Oh, a theme for the whole thing?
Yeah, I mean, they turned it into a movie.
I don't know if it counts, but Moonlight?
What's happening?
The game's over.
I don't know.
I'm just reading off all the correct answers,
or what would have been the correct answers.
I was counting on somebody to get it by Titanic, to be honest.
Because when you say name a movie that begins with T,
and you're already thinking about Oscars,
I would think that one would pop into your head.
Maybe The Godfather.
All right.
So anyway, congratulations to Chris Gethard for winning that game.
But that doesn't mean much at all.
It just means that you're going to go first
in our final game
that we will play. It also means that I've got
all the momentum and honestly that I feel good.
I have a dopamine kick. It's like when I get
wordle into. I feel fucking awesome right now.
I'm feeling really positive.
And for a guy who recently got his ass
beat in a garage, that's a good feeling.
I don't like this version of you I prefer the suicide
fucking Gethard
and all of a sudden I'm like
then why don't you fucking pipe down
and get out of my way
I prefer
suicide Gethard
I'm kidding
I do like this versionher. I'm kidding.
No, it's all good.
I know, yeah.
I do like this version of you.
I've never seen you so spunky.
Well, after you said that,
it gets back.
Yeah, I was going to say,
dealing with the reality of you saying that
Suicide Gether is back.
No, stop it.
You don't cheer me up.
My band is playing tonight.
It's a good time.
Who? I went, they got a really great happy hour
at this Mexican food down the street.
Talk about a salsa windfall.
I'm just happy you remember the name. Thank you.
It's burned in,
burned in. It's too good
to not forget.
Wait, what?
All right.
We got to go to commercial.
We'll be right back.
We're back.
All right. So Chris Gethard won that last game.
Good for you, Chris.
That, of course, just means you get to go first in our final game today.
And it's something that I call last person standing.
We're all sitting
but it's called Last Person Standing
because I'm going to
give you the name of
an actress
and the four of you are going to
take turns naming movies
that that actress has appeared in
I'm bad at this
I'm bad at this
I figure you're all fairly well matched in this regard.
This one is really built for
malting. This one is a malting.
You think? Yeah.
This game stresses
me out. It's always
the last game every time I'm on.
And it's always been an actress every time I'm on.
And I feel like it's only a matter of time before I repeat
an actress that I've already
done on the show.
Yeah, and then you should be really good at it.
Okay.
Yeah.
I don't know.
This one really stresses me out for some reason.
You've done the research.
But I already know who we're going to play today.
I'm not going to play along like I do a lot of times because we don't have a ton of time.
Sure.
And you might, who knows, might be good at it.
If you miss, you're out?
Yes. have a ton of time. Sure. And you might, who knows, might be good. If you miss your out? Yes, but you can go to your person whose name tag you chose. You can go to them once for assistance. So Joe
will be looking for Charles and Chris will look over to Andy, get the thumbs up maybe if he can help you. Beth might need help from
Zach.
And Leonard
has to go to
Cody the poo.
You've got to count on a poo.
But he'll be there for you.
Unless there's honey.
Then he'll be distracted.
Okay, so I know it's a week out, but I'm unless there's honey then you'll be distracted okay so
I know it's a week out but I'm still
excited about last night's
I mean all the performances
were terrific but
I thought Emma Stone
gave a singular
performance that like no one else could do
or maybe even would want to
and she won her
second oscar uh good old emily stone i learned that her name is not emma that's just her stage
name hollywood's such bullshit right i'm just saying if you ever see in person you want her
to feel like you know her call her emily. Because that's what everybody calls her that's in her world.
Anyway,
even on IMDb it says
Emily Emma Stone.
Like it's a fun nickname.
For a while mine said Douglas
Doug Benson.
Like anyone
calls me Douglas.
But anyway, the point is
it's Emma Stone movies.
You have to name Emma Stone movies.
Leonard, you know at least two.
Son of a bitch.
Also, I knew we'd be fighting the clock right now
because there's lots of shows here at Esther's,
so we need to end lots of things to do here at South by Southwest.
People are on a schedule.
Applaud if you've got something to go to right after this.
Yeah.
If you go long on a show here,
the audience will just start getting up and leaving
because they've got their next thing they want to go to,
and we made a pledge to them that this would be done at 5.15.
Remember when we went to the Michael Moore Film Festival
and he introduced Film Festival and he
introduced the movie and he talked
for like 90 minutes? Talked for a long time.
The guy in the audience goes,
Mike, we got other stuff we gotta get to.
And he walked off the stage.
Yeah, he was very pissed. Yeah, that was
why. That there was like that Emperor's New
Clothes person in the audience who just
was just like, come on, man.
We don't have time for a movie
after a 90 minute speech. We don't have time for a movie after a 90
minute speech. We got
shit to do in Traverse City.
Alright, here we go.
Let's do this.
So, which way were we
going last? We were coming this way. So it's going to
start with Joe and
then... Chris won.
Apologies, Chris.
You won the last game. I had so little to hang on to
It's true
Stop it
Please
Stop it
Please
Please take care
Take care of yourself
Reach out for help
If you need it
I was feeling really great
Until DeRosa really
Rode me into the ground man
A man
A man beat on you
In a garage earlier
I'm the worst pain
You're feeling today
By far And, I'll go
super bad. We'll start simple with super bad.
Super bad is an Emma
Stone motion picture. First
movie she was ever in, to be
accurate, I believe.
Then we go to
Mr. Leonard Maltin. Wait, how is it not
right? I'm kidding.
But we are switching the order around.
It's Joe's up next. What? We're going to switch around the other way. Why would you do that? Because that's how I do kidding. But we are switching the order around. It's Joe's up next.
What?
We're going to switch around the other way.
Why would you do that?
Because that's how I do it.
Every round, the order switches up.
Joe?
Easy A.
Okay.
Was that one you were thinking of, Beth?
Yeah.
Oh, I'm sorry.
You're fucked now.
I really am.
I'm sorry.
I took that one away from you.
All right, Leonard.
La La Land.
La La Land.
That was her first Oscar, of course.
You were trying to think of La La Land?
Poor Things.
Yes.
Oh, shit.
But she won the Oscar for it last night.
That's why I didn't say it when I was talking about it.
What's the one with Chris?
Oh, you can't ask
anybody what the
title is.
Because that's the thing you
need to know. I was just, my
internal monologue was on the outside.
Right, but people will answer you
if you ask them politely.
What was that one with
I know the other actor. I could see it. They did
the old timey thing. Do you want to do your lifeline? I think everybody's going to run out of steam fast on this one. I know the other actor? I could see it. They did the old-timey thing.
Do you want to do your lifeline?
I think everybody's going to run out of steam fast.
I know the show's got to move.
Andy, help me out.
Battle of the Sexes.
Battle of the Sexes.
Good one.
That'd be so funny if Andy gave you an incorrect answer
just to drop your self-esteem even further.
But yes, Battle of the Sexes was, I believe,
the next movie
she did after La La Land.
Oh, Joe is so excited and snappy.
Are you going to start singing now?
No.
No.
What do you got?
Keep pumping the air.
Sorry, I didn't realize it was pelvic thrusting.
What do you got?
Crazy Sexy Love.
Yes, with weird punctuation in there.
All right.
Back to Leonard.
Birdman?
What's that?
Birdman.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
I thought you said burn man.
I don't even know what that is.
Birdman or the unexpected virtue of ignorance.
I got a heater in my pocket.
You guys don't even know.
Zach, I hope you take it.
Zach, take whatever the heater is in his pocket.
Yeah.
Zach, do you have another one?
Beth wants help, Zach.
The Amazing Spider-Man.
The Amazing Spider-Man.
Good job.
Nice.
Beth's still in it.
Yeah.
Chris.
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 Yeah, you did
Thanks, Zach
Heat it up, baby
That is how you play
Amazing Spider-Man 2 has no subtitle
So you got the exact correct title
I don't want to use my heater yet
But I might have to
Well, if it's going to save time
I'll go ahead and heat it up.
Solitary Men.
What's that?
It's the Woody Allen movie she was in.
Oh, no. I think it's got a different name than that.
Oh, you might have used...
No.
Too bad about that?
Yeah.
It's got a different name than that. You might have used... It's the Michael Douglas movie.
It's got a different name than that.
No! I'm not going to kick you out.
It's Something Man. Spider-Man!
She refused.
That's why she finally started winning awards. She stopped doing movies
with man in the title, but no.
She went to do
the favorite. Ordinary Man!
Stop it. Sorry.
You're, you might still think of it, but do you want to go to your lifeline or do you
have another title?
That was the heater?
The heater.
The heater was the wrong one?
Yep.
I thought the movie was called solitary man with her and Joaquin Phoenix.
Yeah.
No matter how you describe it past her,
it's not Solitary Man.
No, I know.
I know.
I know she's not in the movie with that title.
He's up on his feet.
By the way, there's once in every time I'm on,
you have to reprimand me to shut up at a certain point.
This is very Joe to this.
Silence!
I've made my decision.
Don't give me the Woody Allen one, though.
Give me a different one.
Oh.
Well, you can't do that.
Don't give him the Woody Allen one.
Well, I mean, I guess they would maybe strategize that way anyway.
Plus, call me crazy, but they don't know the title of the Woody Allen one, I bet.
What?
He doesn't know that one anyway.
Superbad.
Superbad was the first one out of the game.
You're out!
Settle down, man.
Hold on a second.
You come with me with fucking Superbad?
The most obvious fucking...
Are you shitting me?
I think I know one,
but you might...
The favorite.
There you go.
The favorite.
I did fuck up
and say that one earlier.
That's true.
That's so funny.
Okay.
So good job.
So you used your lifeline,
Jost. You're going to be you used your lifeline, Jost.
You're going to be all on your own for the next one.
Leonard, where are you?
Oh, wait.
Yeah.
I need my lifeline's help.
Okay.
Pooh, you got one?
The help.
The help.
The help.
Yeah.
Pooh knows about the movie with the shit pie.
about the movie with the shit pie.
Hi, Beth.
Hey.
What's up?
I'm split between two.
Oh, that's good.
Two that you know
for sure are the names?
I'm almost positive.
Okay.
Do the one
you're most positive about.
Zombieland?
Hmm? Zombiel positive. Okay. Do the one you're most positive about. Zombieland? Hmm?
Zombieland.
Yeah.
I'm going to be honest, Doug.
I'm almost definitely out.
Used my lifeline.
What I will say is that Joe DeRosa has revealed that there's a Woody Allen movie.
Yes.
That's the one I was thinking of.
I don't know it, but I am trying to think
of the era
of when she's been active.
So I'm not sure
this is correct,
but this is purely
an effort to steal it
from Joe.
Wow, wow, wow, wow.
To try to get revenge on him
for being so callous
about my issues
with depression and suicide.
That being said,
it doesn't resemble
at all the phrase
solitary man,
but it is, I believe,
a Woody Allen movie
of an era
when she was active.
Midnight in Paris?
No, not in that?
Even the audience
is going, no.
I felt it again.
It was an incredible amount of...
You're thinking of Owen Wilson.
Oh, yes.
My other favorite redhead, yes.
You know, Rachel McAdams
was the woman in that one?
I made it very clear that I knew it was wrong,
and I was just trying to screw over DeRosa,
but unfortunately...
I was excited about where I was going,
because when you were saying it was not solitary,
I agree.
The word is very different from solitary.
Did you think of it, Joe?
No, but I will say Zombieland 2.
Would you, if you
knew that you'd get thrown out for not
saying the correct title?
How many times would you take it back?
I know, it's called Zombieland 2
Double Something.
I mean, come on,
man.
It's called like...
You know the double part, but not the other
word?
Double what? What would they do I mean... It's called like... You know the double part, but not the other word? Double or something?
Double what?
What would they do double?
It's called like...
Double trouble?
It's something provocative.
It's like double pump or like double hatch or some shit.
I don't know.
Double do...
I mean, you might win this game just for getting part of a title, right?
Zombieland 2, double...
Oh, fuck off, man.
Double up?
Double mint.
Go.
Okay, I just want to do a quick poll.
Applaud if you know the right answer.
Wow.
Double...
Wait, now, does anybody on stage know it?
Leonard doesn't know it.
Beth, do you know it? Leonard doesn't know it best.
Do you know it?
No.
Did you see the Zombieland movies?
Not the second one.
Not the second one.
I barely remember names of the...
It's even somewhat of a callback to the first movie, the title.
I love this so much.
Honestly, I didn't know there were...
I think you're ultimately going to be...
Do you have another Emma Stone movie, Leonard?
when it's your turn
you think?
I have one
so Leonard's going to win this thing
Leonard's going to win
it's like double slap
or double
double
we've run long.
We've got to wrap up.
Zombieland 2, double the zombies!
Even more zombies
than last time!
What's a rule?
What's a rule when you're killing zombies
that you should do?
What's a thing they teach you in those movies
that is important to do?
You have to shoot them in the head.
Double what?
Double shot.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
No, no, no.
No, hold on.
Why are you helping him?
They're helping him two rounds in a row now.
Please give me the head, please.
I was so severely mocked
for my guess of Midnight in Paris.
You have to shoot them through the brain.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So you double what then?
Double shot.
Double kill?
Double tap.
Hey!
That doesn't make any sense.
Yes!
Double tap doesn't make any sense.
Double click.
It's just their way of saying you make sure they're dead
by shooting them twice.
By going like this
and then they bite your hand
while you're tapping them.
Double tap them
if you want their attention.
Excuse me.
Excuse me.
Pardon me.
Sorry for the double tap.
All right.
So you're out, Joe.
All right.
But it was really fun watching that.
Thanks.
I had fun.
Beth really came through there. Does feel was really fun watching that. Thanks. I had fun. Beth really came
through there. It does feel like a feeling for sure.
But Leonard, what's your next
Emily Stone film?
Zombieland.
Oh no, we already said Zombieland. That's why
we got into this Zombieland 2 nonsense.
Well then, I'm out of the gas.
Oh shit, Joe! I just remembered
the Woody Allen movie.
What is it? A Serious Man.
No!
God damn it!
No.
No.
A Simple Man.
No.
Serious Man was Coen Brothers.
Simple Man was Ramey, Sam Ramey.
Or no, that was Simple Plan.
Anyway, Beth, do you have any more
Emma Stone movies?
I...
Yeah,
thank you.
I appreciate that.
She got the tap part,
yeah.
Yeah.
But there was,
that was a lot of help.
I stole,
and I stole the double tap.
I still give Joe
more credit than her
for that one.
But if you had one more,
then you'd win outright
because Joe is
definitely out of gas.
I'm trying to think of that red-headed woman and stuff.
Yeah.
Picture Emma Stone in something.
I'm really thinking about her.
Just put it in your mind's eye.
Cruella!
Oh, yeah.
So Cruella's off the table.
She was very good in that.
Sometimes people can't take it.
They sit here for too long just knowing
that someone should be saying Cruella.
She was very good in that.
It won Best Costumes at the Oscar
that movie. It was great. It's really cool.
Okay, anyway.
So I'm going to call it because we've got to go.
So I'm saying basically
he got further in the
game than anybody else but only by
two of the words in the title.
And also, you kept saying man,
which you should get a little credit for.
He's called Irrational Man.
God damn it.
All right, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But congratulations, Joe DeRosa is our winner today.
Oh, I love a cheap win.
Oh, it feels good.

called Malton on Movies,
and we've recorded Saturday night, our current episode,
An Hour with Frank Oz.
On this stage?
On this stage.
And it's a wonderful conversation.
Give us a tidbit of just what was the thing you learned about Frank Oz
that maybe you didn't know or you found extra fascinating um i just listen to it is that
what you're trying to tell me yeah he's he's he was very warm and very generous in his in his
memories but it's hard to isolate factoids out of it it was almost too much of that like it was
odd to hear it once you'd probably enjoy hearing it again.
Yeah.
But it's true.
I'm going to listen to it.
Also, since we're doing recommendations
all during the show,
I watched Bowfinger again last week.
Yeah, you still love it?
Yeah.
Eddie Murphy is so...
Steve Martin's always great.
Eddie Murphy is extraordinarily good in is always great Eddie Murphy is extraordinarily
good in that movie
he's so funny in so many
things but that's definitely one of them
that's up there because he's not acting like
Eddie Murphy it's a real character
