Doug hates candy wrappers screaming baby sticky seeds
With 50 azepop or kernels in his teeth
There's still not one that he won't see
Cause Doug loves movies
Hey everybody
Welcome to Doug Loves Movies being taped live on tape that'll go on a computer thing. I don't understand the technology, but it's happening at the UCB Theater in Los Angeles. so go to ucbtheater.com for more details tonight is
there was a debate
that occurred this evening
so that might
have affected the turnout a little bit
tonight did anybody
check out the debate before coming here
it was awesome
they took turns making speeches
and
said some of the same things they always say.
But that's cool that you guys saw that
and then made it over here.
And we got a great I Love Movies for you tonight,
let me tell you.
I just want to quickly say that the new Saw movie
is coming out on October 24,
and I just want to give you guys the Doug Benson Saw update.
I didn't see Saw 1.
I didn't see Saw 2.
I saw Saw 3.
I didn't see Saw 4.
And I probably won't see Saw 5.
My guests tonight are two buddies of mine that agreed to come down here.
And they're both awesome.
This first gentleman, you know from his very own podcast.
It's like top ten on iTunes.
I'm like 61 or some shit like that.
So I needed him to boost my ratings.
From Never Not Funny, let's hear it for Jimmy Pardo, everybody.
Jimmy Pardo.
Let's hear it for Jimmy Pardo, everybody.
I'm wearing a hoodie in honor of you,
and then you're not wearing a hoodie.
I'm not wearing a hoodie.
I just went straight up t-shirt tonight.
I very rarely wear a hoodie.
It's a hot autumn evening here in Los Angeles. Hot August night, huh?
Neil Diamond.
Absolutely.
And my other guest,
are you excited, Jimmy, about this?
I'm always excited to see this guy.
This guy is a good friend,
and I don't have to tell you,
I will now not be the most handsome guy on the stage,
which I thought I would be at one point.
You had a shot at it,
but now it's going down in flames
because this gentleman,
this is also a first for I Love Movies,
first Golden Globe winner
to appear on the show.
You know him from AMC's
Mad Men. Let's hear it for Jon Hamm,
everybody.
Jon fucking Draper. Language.
I could swear.
We're allowed to swear. Just come on in here
and use this
microphone right here.
What was better, winning the Golden
Globe or coming out just now?
Which is more exciting?
It's coming out in so many ways.
It's so much fun.
Are you a homosexual, John?
Yeah, oh yeah.
Jimmy, you should know that more than anybody.
Ha ha, attaboy.
That's true.
Why is my microphone so far down like this?
Do you want to do a switcheroo?
No, no, no, no, no.
I'll work it.
I'm tinier than you.
You can yank it out and just hold it.
I might just yank it out and hold it.
That a boy.
Hey-o.
Hi, here we go. That a boy. Here we go.
That's got to be a record.
Three gay jokes in four seconds?
That's going to be a deal.
There was really...
You guys went from zero to gay in an amazing amount of time.
We got a Maserati.
My Maserati goes gay 95.
Let me ask you this, Jimmy P.
Is that Sammy Hagar?
My ma's a ride.
No,
Joey Walsh.
Sammy Hagar
can't drive 55.
Or gay 55.
Or gay 55
for that matter.
Think of the man
just can't drive.
Period.
Bottom line.
It's too much
Tombo Wobbo.
That's right.
Tequila.
Go ahead,
Doug.
You had a question?
John and I were talking.
I apologize.
Sorry about that.
Jimmy, did you go to see a Monday morning mommy movie yesterday?
And if so, what was it?
Doug, I can answer that question.
No, I did not.
I was busy.
I was traveling on an aerial plane.
But I did see a movie today.
Oh, really?
You made up for it.
I did.
I made up for it today.
You did a make-up movie.
Did a matinee today.
Did you take the baby?
No.
No, sir.
Solo today.
All right. What'd the baby do? Just hang out in the car?
Heads up.
Wait a minute. Yeah.
If it's not a mommy movie, he can't come in.
So, yeah, he...
Kind of did, didn't he?
Cracked the window. We're at the Century City mall there.
Bowl of water? You're fine.
Give him a bowl of water.
Not like a small pet or dog.
It wasn't that hot today, really.
It wasn't that bad, right?
No, it wasn't bad at all.
Was it 94?
Ish. Ish. Were you in the valley? No, it wasn't bad at all Was it 94? Ish
Were you in the valley?
No
It's a lot hotter in the valley
Yeah, a lot hotter
It was nasty in the valley today, I bet
That's why I didn't go
I stuck to the
Was that the movie you saw?
Nasty in the Valley?
I did, I saw Nasty in the Valley
I went to a porn theater
Is that a good movie?
And Valley, of course
We're talking about a vagina
Vagina
And it was nasty
It was curd-like.
It was what-like?
Nothing.
Not worth repeating.
Four people heard it, and I hope to God nobody else asked me to repeat it ever again.
That was gross.
Oh, it was the most nauseating thing.
Never mind.
What did you see today?
Today I saw a motion picture with my friend Greg Kinnear.
He was in it.
We didn't go together.
Flash of Genius.
We saw that.
I say that in my act.
I say, I ask everybody, have you seen, I say I saw War of the Worlds with Tom Cruise.
And then I go, we didn't go together.
Do you really?
Yeah.
I didn't know that.
And it's on record.
So.
Well, I want to pull out a, you know what?
I need to get to my open microphone tapes because I have one where I said I saw Pretty
in Pink with John Cryer.
Wow.
He was in it, not with me.
Way back.
When I did that joke, I said that I saw Pretty in Pink with Harry Dean Stanton.
Is that right?
Yeah.
Because I was already pretty alternative even back then.
Actually, the first time I said I went to see this new talkie today
called Citizen Kane with Orson Welles.
And I actually did go see it with him.
We sat side by side and we talked about the movie.
That's perfect.
Very rarely can you sit with the director.
You went talky to Citizen Kane, not jazz singer.
That's right.
Yeah, I waited.
I wanted to make sure they perfected it.
Finally, they're going to get it right.
It was a fad.
This is going to die out.
We're going to go back to enjoying not having to listen while watching cinema.
Someone, all the organ players were out. We're going to go back to enjoying not having to listen while watching the cinema. All the organ players.
I like the organ players at the silent movie theater here.
You ever see them here in LA? The very powerful union.
The organ players.
Is that right? Local one.
He doesn't wear
the half mask though when he plays the organ
for the silent movie. He's just an old guy
who comes up out of the ground.
That echo's not bothering you?
It's a little echoey.
Okay.
I think the microphones
are too close together
or something like that.
Or it's just too handsome up here.
There's no question about that.
You should apologize now, Jimmy.
This is a sexy threesome.
It's not me.
It's not me.
I don't have a trophy.
What was the movie
you saw today, Jimmy?
I saw...
Repeating, I saw
Flash of Genius with Greg Kinnear.
Oh, no, I thought you said...
Okay, that's right.
You did the joke about that we didn't go together.
But I went...
But I was really...
I was fixated on that you just were hanging out with Greg Kinnear.
And, uh...
I've got some big wig friends.
I'll, from time to time, hang out with Corey Feldman as well.
Now, did you...
Did you mean to see Ghost Town and then it ended up being Flash of Genius
and you were like, where is Ricky Gervais
in a dentist's smock? For 115 minutes.
Yeah, the entire time. When is the dentist
going to come into this? Where's the ghost?
When is he going to put on a tuxedo and run in
and walk through a dentist? Didn't happen.
It's all about a windshield wiper.
Finally, a good windshield wiper movie.
He invented the intermittent
wiper, right? Yes. And then Ford just ran with it
And said fuck you dude
Adios Kearns
Wasn't the working title of this movie
Tucker 2
It actually was
Another man and another dream
We all have dreams
We do almost on a nightly basis
I finally had the alarm going off in the dream
And then turning it off
And then going back to sleep
And then the real alarm going off dream
I'd never had that until today
Was it disappointing?
It's just weird
Now it's like dreams are like
That was more like a dream you'd see in a movie
Not a dream you'd really have
So it freaked my shit out
You know what I did? I went back to sleep And I didn't dream anymore a dream you'd see in a movie, not a dream you'd really have. So it freaked my shit out.
You know what I did? I went back to sleep.
And I didn't dream anymore.
Because I had to get up too soon.
And here we are. Thank goodness we can
edit that part out. I wouldn't.
We all can relate to that. We all have dreams.
I'm backing off so that you two can have some cross
conversation. I don't want to be caught in the middle here
and then I feel like I'm overpowering.
You're doing alright.
You're contributing the perfect amount
until right now. This laying back thing,
I don't care for that. Maybe go
mic in hand. I want you in all the time.
Just because then you can go back with it.
I want it to be like Entourage where all three of us
speak constantly but never overlap.
We're constantly having
a conversation but nobody even for the slightest second
overlaps with someone else
It's just your turn, your turn, your turn
Aaron Sorkin's entourage
Exactly
Walk and talk and nobody bumps into anything
And nobody talks over each other
Well that's because they have direction, Doug
Oh, is that how it works?
I don't like being behind you two
Like around the log right at the amusement park
This thing is horrible
Whose staging is this?
You're from the theater?
This is horrible staging.
You've got to cheat
everything out.
Like in a theater show,
if you're playing
a game of poker,
there has to be
no one sitting in the seat
with their back
to the audience
or it just has to be
a dummy or an extra
because who wants
to watch a guy's back
the entire time?
A good friend of a guy.
When he's playing poker.
Jon Hamm,
I have a question for you.
Shoot.
Your character on Mad Men,
what's his favorite movie?
Have you done that thing
where you sit down like a jackass actor
and write down all the things
that your character likes?
Or are you a professional and you just show up and wing it?
I just kind of show up.
Yeah, yeah.
I didn't write my character page.
I haven't gone
down the artist's path. You never
do that for any audition?
No. I'm sure
he was a big fan of Sweet Smell of Success
or something like that. I don't know. I don't think
so. I think...
Yeah, I don't know. I don't think so.
I think he would maybe be less interested
in the ins and outs of the hilarious back and forth of public relations
and more into thought pieces.
Thought pieces? I like that.
Especially if there's a new European.
Like that Swedish thing where they're playing chess with death?
That kind of thing?
I think that's maybe more my guy.
What are they playing in that?
Because he's hilarious.
What are they playing in that?
Connect Four?
Are they playing Connect Four?
In the original draft, they were.
Yeah.
And it went to chess.
Connect Four was huge in Sweden in the 60s.
Is that right?
It's huge.
I bet you that Don Draper would be a big Paul Newman fan.
I would think so.
I bet you he would have been into his stuff.
Paul Newman's dead, by the way, everybody.
Wait a minute.
Yeah, it's just in.
Oh.
That's a drag.
What's your favorite, each of you, Jimmy and John, your favorite Paul Newman movie?
Cool Hand Luke.
Cool Hand Luke?
John says Cool Hand Luke.
I have a problem with watching someone eat too many eggs
That's surprising for you
I don't like either the Jackass movies
Or Cool Hand Luke as a result
Knowing how big a fan
There's only three movies I can't watch
Knowing how big a fan I know you are of the McGriddle
I can't imagine
I know but the raw egg
Just eating the egg
And I think one McGriddle is plenty I've never had more than one in a sitting I know, but the raw egg, just eating the egg. So it's really the way that the eggs are served.
And I think one McGriddle is plenty.
I've never had more than one in a sitting.
You wouldn't go 50 on a book?
I couldn't go 50.
That would be horrible.
It would be nauseating.
And what's your favorite, Paul Newman?
It's interesting that you ask this.
You know, on my very popular podcast that you alluded to earlier,
I predicted that this gentleman would become the lead singer of Journey.
I predicted that on my podcast. We also predicted
Paul Newman would die within three weeks on my
podcast. So my podcast
is a soothsayer.
What's your next sooth you're going
to say?
What's next on the sooth agenda?
Let me just tell you that Pat Harrington better
watch his back.
Pat Harrington was of course Schneider on One Day at a Time.
Yeah.
That's right.
I always played Fast and Loose without Hammer.
You don't know what he's going to do?
Hammer and a hairdryer.
That's never a good combination.
Ever!
The two H's?
Look out!
No one here is old enough to get that.
No.
I should have updated that reference.
I should have made that a...
I don't know, a Steve O?
Yeah, that would be good.
Isn't he already then?
In my eyes.
What's the name of the kid on Two and a Half Men?
He's a good reference. Charlie Sheen?
Angus.
Angus T. Young, is that his name?
Angus.
His name is Angus.
I got the half man.
So your favorite?
I like Absence of Malice.
I also do like his performance in Color of Money.
Academy Award winning performance.
He was great.
Just at the end where he just goes, I'm back.
And then he splits the balls.
Man, that's a great scene.
Now, the movie is about pool, for those of you who don't know.
It was also in the Valley.
I was going to say.
He's playing pool at the time, for those of you who are wondering why he'd say, I'm back,
and then split the balls. He's going in at the time, for those of you who are wondering why he'd say, I'm back, and then split the balls.
He's going in for another exam.
I'm back.
I'm back.
Split them.
Cough.
I'd have to go maybe, since you guys didn't take it, because all those are great movies,
I'm going to go with Slapshot.
Oh, I didn't even think of the comedies.
All those Paul great movies. I'm going to go with Slapshot. Oh, she didn't even think of the comedies. All those Paul Newman comedies.
The one about the building on fire and the one about the logging industry and the one about Mr. Bridge.
Which one is that? Road to Perdition?
Cars.
Cars was good, right?
No.
I didn't like it.
I didn't either, but my friend Matt hates it so much, I assume I hate it.
Gas prices being what they are, I can't afford to watch Cars.
Oh, hey.
You've got to be excited about Cars 2 to bring that joke back, huh?
Oh, can they make a Cars 2 without Paul Newman?
That's the question.
Jimmy did a gesture, for those of you listening.
He crossed his fingers.
Fingers crossed.
Yeah, I didn't care.
Cars was the first Pixar miss for me.
The first swing and a miss.
Because I don't give a shit if a car wins a race or not.
When there's a driver inside it, but the car also talks.
What if it's an adorable car?
Well, they are.
They were really cute.
Did you guys see Speed Racer?
No.
Yes, on a plane.
Me too.
I saw it on a plane.
What a fucked up movie that is.
Crazy.
But I was sort of, it won me over.
I was intrigued the entire time.
Won me over.
But it's really fucked up.
Crazy.
Like every transition throughout the entire movie is somebody's face, you know, in full
screen going all the way across the screen.
Like repeatedly.
Like, you know, John Goodman, like his face will be like a wipe to the next scene
and every time they're racing cars
it's on these incredible tracks
with like loopy loops
and no gravity and no
concern for any kind of
or any cinematic
rules so that you can know who's winning
when or why or how
and how the fuck
where does the chimp come into play?
It's such a crazy-ass movie.
That's the problem with so many movies,
when you have to figure out when the chimp comes into play.
Yeah, why is the chimp there?
That was my problem with Slapshot, really.
It's when is the chimp going to come into play?
Why isn't the chimp on skates yet?
Come on.
God, that would be great if there was a chimp in Slapshot.
How about recreating Slapshot
With entirely chimps
Well what movie does have
A chimp on skates
An all chimp cast
Didn't we watch that on
Interrupts the movies
Didn't we watch
Some chimp on skates
A chimp on skates
I think we might have
But I can't remember
What movie was that
Chimp on skates
Who was the chimp
That used to be
Have a big part
In TV guides
Mr. Muggs Mr. Muggs?
Mr. Muggs.
He was on the Today Show with
Don Galloway or some shit like that.
I don't know Mr. Muggs.
Dave Galloway.
What was Mr. Muggs?
Mr. Muggs was the Today Show.
I'm a 70-year-old man.
When the Today Show first started,
the host had a sidekick
that was a monkey named Mr. Muggs.
What?
Yeah, eventually replaced by Meredith Vieira,
but yes.
Yay! I was going to say Al Roker. It used to be a monkey. Yeah, yeah. That replaced by Meredith Vieira, but yes. Yay!
It used to be a monkey.
It would be racist.
It would be horrible, but it's okay.
It's alright in these times. It's debate night.
Why wouldn't you inject
race into this? Let's talk
about it. Let's do it. Let's inject some race.
God damn it.
Your favorite racist movie
of all time, if you had to name one
I gotta go Color of Money again
It's got color right in the title
More color, more problems
Mine would be The Color Purple
Oh, you got a lot of trouble with that, yeah
Very racist
You mean, was the movie racist or am I racist for watching it?
Oh, that's a good point
I'm confused I didn't really think watching it? Oh, that's a good point.
I'm confused.
I didn't really think about it before I threw that out there.
Which movie makes you feel the most racist for watching it?
License to Drive.
License to Drive and Colors?
Those are both about the city streets and shit that goes down. About the streets of LA, sure.
It's only going to name movies that have color or some word referencing color in it.
I was thinking about Song of the South the other day
and how racist it was.
And then now there's still a ride at Disneyland
that celebrates that movie
but leaves out all the racist parts.
That's a horrible ride.
It's just two-thirds of the movie.
It's just the animals singing
and then you plummet to your death.
Do they literally stop singing when the formerly racist parts were, like, did they ever update the tracks?
Or is there just a weird pause?
I don't know.
That was a weird movie.
I remember as a kid not liking it because I thought it was boring.
I didn't dislike it for its racism.
It also had a weird mixture Of live action and animation.
Yeah, well that was the thing.
The live action, like the fox was supposed to be
like, uh...
The bear was supposed to be like the white man
and the fox was like
a black dude. Classic.
Who constantly tricked
the white man so he didn't really have to do his work.
Because they're sneaky.
That he was supposed to do.
And then Uncle Remus was the old black guy that told the white man so that he didn't really have to do his work. Because they're sneaky. That he was supposed to do. And then Uncle Remus was the old black guy
that told the white kids the story.
And then, I don't know how this
figures into it, but eventually one
white boy, a bull,
jams one of his
head horns into the kid's
ass and draws blood
out of the kid's ass.
Which is the Civil Rights movement, I think.
That's what that was?
I thought it was the Underground Railroad,
but that's close enough.
One of the two.
I don't know how we got on that subject.
Remus is a name that really has fallen out of favor, isn't it?
It really has. You don't hear about a Remus.
There's nobody's name Remus anymore.
Remus Pardo? No.
That's horrible. It's not too late.
No, that's true.
I saw Gretchen Maul on The View today,
and they named their kid a boy.
They named it Ptolemy.
No.
P-T-O-M-O-L-E-M-Y.
Ptolemy.
Why is that P in there?
Because that's how the word's spelled.
I understand that.
What does it mean?
I guess I don't know what that word means.
Well, I don't think it means something.
I think it's just a name, but it's like a really old-fashioned one.
It's like pneumatic.
Yeah, it's like naming your kid pneumatic.
No, John, you don't pronounce the P in that.
But you could.
But most people don't.
But it's still there.
There's no question about that.
That's why it's there.
But why is it there?
Let's talk about language.
Well, it has something to do with the Greeks.
Is that right?
Yes.
It's all Greek origin?
I had a feeling you guys would be good together.
Oh, boy.
Now, you have a movie coming out, John.
I do.
Is that correct?
I do.
Called The Day the Earth Stood Still.
Yes.
With Keanu Reeves plays the thing that stood still.
He doesn't play the earth.
He doesn't move much.
What's his name?
His name is Klaatu.
Okay, but when he says Klaatu Barada Niktu...
Which is Gretchen Moll's other child.
Ha!
When he says Klaatu Barada Niktu, he's saying his own name.
And Klaatu is going to Barado Niktu on your asses.
That's essentially what he's saying.
He's casting a vote
for Obama
is what he's doing.
Okay.
And when does this come out?
In time for the election?
12-12.
No, it'll be
we'll have a new president
by then.
Wow, that's going to be
a strange new world
when your movie comes out.
All I know is that
the Secretary of Defense
on December the 12th
will be Kathy Bates.
Oh, she's a good actress.
Yes.
So whoever gets elected has to immediately take her on.
She won an Academy Award for doing to James Caan what most people in the industry have wanted to do for years.
Just take a goddamn sledgehammer and go to town.
You know, my father-in-law I went to school with, Jimmy Caan.
Really?
Yeah.
Let's bring him out. Jimmy, come on out.
Come on out, Jimmy. And now they both work together
at the Montecito Hotel in Vegas, right?
Jimmy Kahn,
I used to live in an apartment building in Pasadena,
California, back in 1986.
And for reasons to this second I don't understand,
Kahn would come and swim at the pool every day.
He's a movie star!
And he would come to this shit complex in Pasadena
and swim. He's been in good shape.
He was in very good shape.
He'd wear a Speedo in 86.
I had a Mohawk and a mullet, both.
Mid-80s, buddy.
That's a tough combo.
Had a Wham t-shirt on.
Sleeveless?
Yeah, sleeveless.
Yeah, choose life, friend.
Sorry.
Do you feel good about the movie?
Yeah, I do.
Do you think people will enjoy it? I, I do. Do people enjoy it?
I think so.
It's a cautionary tale.
Yeah, and it's a remake, as you probably know, of a 1950s sci-fi movie.
So I think 50 years have passed, and it's time.
It's time for the update.
Yeah, it's a cautionary tale of that sort of thing,
and it's directed by a guy who directed The Exorcism of Emily Rose,
which was a pretty cool movie for that kind of scary movie type thing.
It was a surprise hit, that movie.
And he kind of brought a cool sort of, for a big budget popcorn type movie,
he brought kind of a really tense suspense vibe to it, and I think it'll be good.
I saved 12 lines in it, so...
You're the star of the movie.
Well, I'm the star of the movie,
is what I'm trying to say by the 12 lines I have.
Well, here's a movie you're not in.
It's time to play the Leonard Maltin game.
I will list off the cast of a movie
from the bottom to the top,
leaving out the best names for last.
If either one of you think you know what movie I'm
describing, say stop.
Are we competing as a team or against each other?
You're against each other. You're damn right we are.
Bring it on, Ham! Let's do
this!
This is from 1991. Do you feel confident?
Well, this is something I think I could beat you at, so let's do this.
Do you feel confident? I do not, no, but go ahead.
I'm looking.
1991. What's that?
You were 11 years old when this came out.
Okay, so this is 91.
91.
So I'm 11.
All right, go.
Here we go.
You were probably, you might have gone with your mommy to a mommy movie to see this.
1991?
Yeah.
Do you give us the genre or do we just have to start guessing?
No genre.
Go.
All right.
The first name on the list is William Shallert.
Oh, Star Trek.
Many people don't know. No, Shallert. William Shallert Who many people don't know
No, Shallert
William Shallert
He's the voice of the toaster
In the Pop-Tart commercials
You knew that
I know I don't feel confident
The next name, this is from 1991
Next name, new in the biz, just getting going
Martin Lawrence
In 91 Martin Lawrence.
In 91.
In 91. Martin Lawrence in 91.
That's not Bad Boys. What do you think he was up to?
No, it's not Bad Boys. He wouldn't get such shitty billing.
Queen Latifah wasn't in Bad Boys, but she's
in this. Boomerang?
I don't know. Boomerang's a good guess.
