Today's show is brought to you in part by Heinz Mayonnaise. You may forget what happened
three seasons ago on that show everyone's talking about, but you'll never forget a delicious
BLT made with unforgettably creamy Heinz mayonnaise. Slather it onto a mouthwatering turkey club,
mix it into a luscious garlic aioli, or layer it on a thick cheddar cheeseburger.
And because of the unforgettable creaminess, hours later you'll be telling everyone with an earshot just how good it was.
Try something new. Try Unforgettably Creamy Heinz Mayonnaise.
And the new Heinz mashups, Mayo Chup, Mayo Q, Mayo Must, and Crunch.
Enjoy the show.
mayo must and CRANCH! Enjoy the show.
Doug hates
candy wrappers screaming
maybe sticky seeds with
50 acid pop or kernels in his
teeth. There's still not one
that he won't see
cause Doug loves
movies! Hey, hey, hey everybody
My name is Doug
And I love movies This is Doug and I love movies
that is not the right time
for that
don't do that in front of Eddie himself
hey Doug
shut up Eddie I gotta do the show.
We're here at the American Comedy Company in Sweet Home San Diego!
It's Wednesday.
It's Wednesday.
It's Wednesday.
July 17th.
Yeah, those got harder as it went along.
2019, that's not too difficult.
And it is kickoff night of Comic-Con here in San Diego. I know a lot of you are
excited for
that, maybe cosplaying,
what have you,
so I will not hold it against you
if there's not a lot of name tags here
tonight. But let's
go ahead and find out.
There's one lit up over there already.
How are we on name tags
tonight? Oh, it's looking...
It's looking like, strangely,
the people up front didn't fuck with it.
That's kind of interesting.
Usually the people who make name tags
really, you know, make a lot of effort
to sit right up front and vice versa.
But these folks up front tonight
are just like, whatever, dude.
We want to be close and not involved.
But let's see right up front here.
We've got the Breakfast Club, and I really like this one.
I saw this one on the Internet today.
May I show everybody? It's beautiful.
Yeah, with me
and four of the regulars from the show playing the uh the five roles in the breakfast
club and uh and as i said to you on twitter today you uh you got one out of four guests correct
yeah so three other guests are going to be not on that guy's name tag
and then what's the story behind this better off Fred? I saw that
on the internet and there's a story
behind it, right?
Your mom
calls you Fred and you're not, you're
a girl, you're not a Fred.
And so your poster says
better off Fred in tribute to your mom
calling you by a man's name.
I think I
encapsulated it beautifully.
What's that weird creature over there? Is that the
dog thing from Never Ending Story?
Nightmare.
Oh, Nightmare Before Christmas?
That's Jack Skellington?
They have the same
eyes.
Alright, thank you to everybody who brought
name tags and good luck tonight being chosen out there in the darkness.
I got my Doug plugs in here somewhere.
Coming up this Saturday,
because you guys sold this show out tonight,
we were able to add a show this Saturday
right here at the American Comedy Company at 3.30.
So from 3.30 to 5,
you know, there's not some big thing going on
on Hall H that you need to see.
Then haul your
A over here.
That might become a
traditional way to describe
that show.
Isn't that right, Eddie?
That's right, dog.
Tuesday, Doug Loves Movies is back at the UCB Franklin in Los Angeles.
July 27th, I'm at the Punchline in San Francisco.
August 1st, Traverse City Film Festival.
For all my dates and deets and links,
go to douglosmovies.com.
That's douglosmovies.com!
Yeah!
Woo!
All it!
Shh!
Check out this prize bag, you guys.
It's from my friends at Patreon.
And of course, become a member of the 420 Club.
Yeah, patreon.com slash gettingdoug.
They gave me a bunch of stuff that I'll be giving away on the show,
including this lovely tote.
A couple days ago in Burbank, we did a show.
A guy brought a name tag.
It got picked by Josh Wolfe.
After the show, Josh Wolfe says to the guy,
do you want this back? He says, no, you can keep it.
And then Josh Wolfe just left it in the green room.
And I felt sad for the little guy.
I thought, this is perfect prize bag material.
So it's, hello, my name is Wally.
Instead of Wally, it's Wall JD.
But it's a cute little stuffed version of the Wally character, yeah.
And he needs a home.
Oh, shit.
Now he just fell on his head.
So he's dead.
Let's not worry about it.
Let's not get into it.
We got some Douglas movies.
Stickers we've got from our friends at IFC.
They've sponsored a show recently,
and they sent us a bunch of stuff.
A documentary called Wiener.
It's about that guy, Anthony Wiener.
I mean, they could have called the movie Dick Pick,
but they went with his name, Wiener.
And then, oh, this is a shirt I got somewhere
that's a tribute to Pee Wee Herman.
It says, you don't want to get mixed up
with a guy like me, Dottie.
And, oh, I was just in Tucson,
so I got a copy of Tucson Magazine.
Apologies, Tucson Lifestyle.
Sorry to everyone at Tucson Magazine that thought you might be headed for a subscription bump.
They're giving away mini copies of Entertainment Weekly
out on the street here at Comic-Con,
so I grabbed one and looked at
it for a second put it in the bag oh there's another t-shirt in here what's
this t-shirt for oh this is neat this one this was a cool shirt it's uh it's
got a little logo on it and it says continental NYC and that's the
continental hotel in the John wick motion pictures. And that's the Continental Hotel in the John Wick motion pictures.
So all that's going in the prize bag,
plus stuff brought by my four guests
who are all here for Comic-Con.
Give it up, everybody,
for Clark Wolf, Graham Elwood,
Mark Ellis, and Leonard Malton! Oh my goodness, this is going to be an instant classic, you guys.
This is what a murderer's row of heavy hitters.
Comic-Con regulars all.
It's one of the fun things about Comic-Con is getting to see all these people.
And let's say hello to them individually,
starting with the gentleman all the way over on the other end.
It's Graham Elwood, everybody.
Oh, wait, yeah.
Really good pretzels here, guys.
Really good pretzels.
I was really hoping you'd start on the other end, but yes. Hello, Doug.
Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know you were on
a pretzel break.
But you'll be
able to get right back to those after we
finish this conversation.
Thanks for being here.
Thanks for having me, Doug.
Sitting to Graham's right,
we have...
See? Go back to your food.
It's Mark Ellis, everybody!
With a nice
mug of the ale. Nice mug of
ale. Yeah. This is very
Tyrion Lannister.
I don't know if he survived. Did he survive?
Anybody know? All right. I don't know if he survived. Did he survive? Anybody know?
All right.
I'm three episodes in.
I think Sean Bean's making it, guys.
So keep your fingers crossed.
You know, Doug, it is lovely to join you here.
Not 24 hours before my two comedy shows
right on this very stage at American Comedy Company.
Tickets at MarkEllisLive.com. Back to you.
I was going to say most of that.
Oh, well,
then I'll just say this, that there is no
bigger thrill, and I know it's just Wednesday at Comic-Con,
there is no bigger thrill
than getting a Twitter DM from Doug Benson
at 6pm
today saying, would you like to be on my show in two hours? than getting a Twitter DM from Doug Benson at 6 p.m. today
saying, would you like to be on my show in two hours?
I feel loved. I feel important.
And you know what? I feel like I'm going to win tonight, Doug.
I really got a special feeling. Thank you.
And it's growing. It's growing.
Like those dragons in Game of Thrones, they keep growing. It's growing. Like those dragons in Game of Thrones,
they keep growing.
I texted you yesterday, though.
Did not receive it.
I was driving.
You don't mix those two.
Also joining us,
got in touch with her a day or so ago,
maybe more recently than that.
It's Clark Wolf, everybody.
Hello.
I can...
I can absolutely confirm, Doug,
that there was at least 18 hours
in between now and when I received a text message.
I'll also send a sneaky, like, middle-of-the-night DM on Twitter
knowing that that's not going to wake anybody up,
and they'll probably see it at a reasonable hour the next day.
Or if they're an insomniac, like I can't sleep on occasion,
if they're like me, they'll just see it in the middle of the night.
Like, Amy Miller will get back to me at 4 a.m. all the time.
Great story.
So thank you for taking the 18-hour challenge.
Thank you for asking me that.
And being here.
Did you spend that entire time studying movies?
I sure did, per usual.
Also, I do have to say, in a kind of nerdy way,
I listen to the Comic-Con episode of your show every year.
I love it. And I kind of secretly always wanted I listen to the Comic-Con episode of your show every year. I love it.
And I kind of secretly always wanted to be on the Comic-Con episode.
So I was quite thrilled.
18 hours or no to be asked.
If you'd have told me that you had been on a previous Comic-Con episode,
I would have believed you.
Okay.
Fair enough.
I'm kind of surprised you haven't been.
But that's probably because you've been on the shows
at Fantastic Fest a couple of times.
Absolutely.
So many Fantastic Fest shirts being represented.
Yeah, we're all repping Fantastic Fest,
which is happening, of course, September 20th through the 28th.
So excited.
At Alamo Drafthouse in Austin, Texas.
Yes, sir.
South Lamar.
Yeah.
We'll all be there, right? Is that right?
I will be there. Yeah, okay. He's giving me
the nod. And let's say hello to him,
everybody. It is Leonard Malton.
Woo-hoo!
Thank you.
Thank you.
All right. Take your seats. Take your seats.
We've got a lot here. We've got a lot to do here in the basement today.
And Leonard must have a lot to do at Comic-Con,
but the thing I'm most excited about that you do,
and I hope to attend this year, so tell us all about it,
is where people can tell you you're wrong, Mr. Moulton,
where they can tell you what movie review you're wrong about.
That's tomorrow.
Just get it off their chest.
And you just sit there and go, I don't care.
I still didn't like it.
Or whatever the case may be, your opinion's your opinion.
Yeah, exactly.
Well, I mean, it's fun to do.
My daughter, Jessie, cooked up this idea.
And we did it last year.
And it was very successful.
Most daughters wish they could create a show where people would yell at their father.
No yelling, healthy debate.
Healthy debate.
Yeah, nobody gets mad about anything.
No, no, at least our experience so far has been very good.
I would get frustrated debating you, I think, because you're very calm and, you know, even-handed. So I would, you know, I would feel weird raising my voice.
Well, some people don't have that. Some people don't have that hesitation in their DNA.
Well, I can't wait to see this. When and where is it?
Tomorrow, one o'clock.
Oh, shoot.
Yes. No, no.
You know what?
We'll reenact it for you later.
We'll reenact the whole thing later on. Tomorrow, 1, in which,
do you know the room number?
Sure I do.
Does anybody?
Six something something.
Six something something, yeah.
Thank you, Jesse Malton,
with the stats.
Yeah.
Go to six something something.
So I assume that's on the sixth floor.
Make no assumptions.
Don't even know what building that's in, right?
I'm going to go 6AB is my guess.
6AB?
Yeah, you don't see a lot of Fs.
This is like bingo.
Or G.
If you get past G and somebody tells you to go to Comic-Con,
they're like, yeah, it's in 6M.
It's a different
place.
That's in La Jolla. It's a whole different community.
We're looking
forward to it. It's fun.
Okay, tomorrow at 1 o'clock, I'll be there.
And no, you know,
6BCS.
F as in Frank.
VBS, what F as in Frank. Yes. Phoebe S, what?
Bravo Charlie Frank.
BCF.
BCF.
Okay.
BCF, that's 12 points in Words with Friends.
You're my BCFF, Mark.
I received a Twitter DM at 3 a.m.
telling me the same exact thing last night.
Graham Elwood, what's your food status update?
All good, Doug.
You're able to get some food down over there?
Tell us more about the scene over there
on your side of the stage.
Really exciting, Doug.
Just walked on stage with a mouthful of pretzel
and had a
bottled water of Fiji. I took the label
off, and where it was really weird, I
tried to just put it down in the green room, but it
stuck to my foot,
and now there's hair on it.
So I don't know what the fuck is happening
with Fiji water, but it has really
gone off the rails.
But we're going to try to dial that down.
Well, thanks for checking in, Graham.
That's fantastic.
Let's go to Cindy with the weather.
Tell us, Cindy, is Superman going to be sweating in his tights this weekend?
Hey, Doug, I missed the episode you and Graham used to do in your rental cars.
Oh, yeah.
We'd have gigs where we'd have to ride around in rental cars.
And we'd play games and just chat, talk about the make and model of the car.
But we haven't, you know, have we gone up in the world taking planes all the time?
I don't know.
As soon as I hit private plane level, which probably never happened.
But if I did, then, you know, I'd bring my friends and we'd podcast
on the plane. Well, Doug, you know,
the people listening at home, they don't know where the hell we are,
so we could just tell them, Doug, we're in a Chevy Impala
with a really comfortable
ride on a big trunk.
That's what that part of the show
was like. He would say what kind of
car it was and I would have nothing to add.
You made Leonard Bolton ride in the backseat that's we're just gonna have to uh Graham and I just have to get
together and drive around in a car just to record these for Leonard did they
help you to sleep at night is that why you like no I like him I like them
period okay cool but then I'm sometimes I'm easily pleased, especially audio only.
Right.
Well, that's the thing.
I feel like while there's a lot of very popular podcasts,
it's a very niche sort of audience that has the time and inclination to just listen.
But I love it.
As long as there's somebody out there listening, I'm going to keep doing it.
Good. Yeah.
Yeah.
Maybe not this exactly, but you know what I mean.
I'll do something
that people can listen to or choose not to listen
to here in America
and elsewhere.
Graham? Traffic on the
fives, Doug.
Can we go to the Skycopter with Rick Dickert?
Rick Dickert of the Skycopter, Doug. We're flying over Leonard Moulton's home,
but he is falling asleep to two shitheads
talking about a rental car.
405 stacked up from LAX out into the valley.
Oof.
They love the Los Angeles traffic here in San Diego.
Really?
Really?
Up to date from a city you don't live in.
Skycaptor 5 with Tick Tickern and Dougie B.
Oh, God.
I hope they don't start calling Anchorman things like Dougie B.
I don't know.
They're really trying to get morning radio and Skycopter all together under one roof.
That was from network, so those are my notes.
What'd you bring for the uh the old uh
the old prize bag graham oh what's in my prize bag well the 10 freeway is backed up all the way
from the beach to downtown oh sorry uh i have doug in my prize bag i have uh first of all i have a
copy of earbuds the podcasting documentary that you're in.
There you go.
Very nice.
That's nice.
That's another form that's dying,
the documentaries about podcasts.
Yeah, and it comes with yellow pages and a CB radio.
It's really fantastic.
I have some jelly beans that somebody wrapped in a thing,
put a ribbon on
so good luck eating
those
I have
from my YouTube show
Political Vigilante I have a
Make Gotham Great Again shirt
that's exciting
all I have left is a really super small
so
good luck with that
and I have use all of these things at your own risk really super small, so good luck with that.
And I have... Use all of these things at your own risk, everybody.
Yeah, and the bag,
I really thought it out.
It all works together, a DVD, a T-shirt,
jelly beans, and then a makeup remover wipe
to really fulfill your afternoon.
And then it all comes
in a tote bag from Doctors Without Borders.
So none of these things make any sense, but enjoy a bag full of weirdness.
Courtesy of everybody at Skycopter 5.
That's a great organization, you guys.
But do not give to Doctors Without Boundaries.
They're creeps.
They're such creeps.
They're always going weird rectal
exams. They're like, my eye hurts.
Well, let's check downtown, you know?
Like, whoa, what are you doing that for, Doc?
I mean, I guess it said no boundaries,
but I still thought you were a doctor.
Would you like another makeup wipe?
Here, hold this jelly bean between your nipples.
He's got framed on his wall a copy of the Hippocratic Nope.
Okay, so pass that stuff down there, Graham.
Thank you very much.
Here we go.
What do you got for us, Mark?
Well, Doug, I'm glad you asked.
I know it's very last minute,
so if you brought anything at all,
we're going to be impressed.
Because look, if I may have the floor,
my fellow candidates,
they're going to try to wow you
with gift bags from comic book conventions.
But Mark Ellis, he brings something practical
to each and every Doug Loves Movies show
that he gets booked on,
not two and a half hours before the event begins.
So you guys are going to be walking around.
By round of applause,
how many people are actually attending Comic-Con this weekend?
Fair amount of you.
Do you need another Batman shirt?
Yes.
Do you need another comic book?
Of course. Or do you need a $ shirt? Yes. Do you need another comic book? Of course.
Or do you need a $25 Starbucks gift card?
Now, if the winner is a police officer, there's a coffee bean a couple blocks down there that you can go to instead.
I hope that works better tomorrow
night, Doug.
Thank you.
And if it doesn't
work, you can DM me and I'll send you the receipt.
Got it right here.
I can't believe that with only two and a half hours
you got a job, made
$25,
went to a Starbucks.
I just need the motivation.
But that is real.
That's legit, though.
That's not because I've had people put blank cards in the prize bag as a joke.
Yeah, I know. That's not nice. That's people put blank cards in the prize bag as a joke yeah i know that's not nice it's up who would do that can i see the card back for a minute
i'm just gonna put my phone in there it's got the app knock yourself out no it's a real gift card
people named mark are really shifty and do stuff like that that's mark and they spell their name with a C.
I got the K.
No, it wasn't Mark Maron.
It was Mark Norman.
He like thought that was a funny joke to play
but I tweeted immediately about it
when I heard later
what he had done
because
I just felt bad for somebody
turning over a gift card
they thought had 25 bucks on it.
They probably ordered a lot of shit.
That's a fuckhead thing to do, man.
Was it for Starbucks or was it like Barnes & Noble?
Did they have like a book up there?
I think it was a Starbucks.
No, maybe it was a Dunkin' Donuts.
Whatever it was, he said it was 25 and it was zero
and he thought it was funny.
I apologize on behalf of me.
15 minutes later, they're playing the podcast episode
to the barista, like, here, see, that's me.
Clark, what do you have?
I think it was my first time on your show, Doug,
that I accidentally gave somebody my car in the prize bag.
I left my car keys in the prize bag one time.
That's right.
A new car!
Yeah.
Yeah, a Hyundai Elantra.
Have you heard from them how they like the car?
Yeah, shout out to Jamie.
Jamie, who is a big fan of your show,
who promptly was DMing Sam Levine and Doug, like, I have Clark's car keys.
Please, somebody come back.
It was very nice.
Thanks, Jamie.
And I did get my car back.
That ended the best way possible.
It sure did.
It could have been a lot worse.
Could have been bad.
Again, it was an Elantra.
Okay.
So similarly, I was walking over.
I just did a little work when I got here.
I am on a show called DC Daily, which is on the...
Thank you, Mark Ellis.
And thank you, guys.
It is on the DC Universe streaming platform.
Yeah, the Aquaman pin just keeps falling down.
Thank you.
Fucking Aquaman, he's slippery.
See, this is why you gotta come see this guy.
I don't get it.
I'm opening with that joke tomorrow.
Please do.
I'm gonna need that pin back.
This is yours, actually, for being a good Samaritan.
You get the opportunity.
No, no, no, they get it.
They're getting a Starbucks card.
They need all the swag they can get.
So I was walking over to the floor tonight,
and I realized, oh, snap, I almost stole a banana from crafty, like shoved it in the bag and was like, this is my prize.
But I got you guys a Harley Quinn face mask and a bunch of DC pins and some comics, including Catwoman and Young Justice and Dear Justice League,
and all of this is from the Warner Media booth.
And if I may just be serious for two seconds,
I promise it won't last very long.
So last year while we were here at Comic-Con,
a dear friend of mine and a big part of this community,
John Schnett, passed away.
Yes.
So we are coming up on the one-year anniversary on July 19th.
And so his partner in crime and fiancée, Holly Payne,
had these pins made with John's silhouette.
And so I am putting this in the prize bag
so that we can all raise a glass and remember John Schnett.
Very nice.
Yes.
To Mr. Schnett. The biggest of all the sweaties. Indeed. Very nice. Yes, to Mr. Schnell.
The biggest of all the sweaties.
Indeed, the sweatiest of the sweaties.
Yeah, but this is not slippery like Aquaman.
Like Aquaman.
He's just glistening from the water,
not from the sweatiness.
Leonard, it's finally time.
That's a pregnant pause for me to present.
No, I was going to say for us to go to bed.
It's getting late.
Yeah, it's your turn to present. Well, I too have some pins.
You do?
Yeah, these are pins that my daughter makes up
of me in my appearance on South Park
from years ago.
And there's one of me,
looking like me,
there's one of me turned into the robot Leonard
to defeat the Mecha Streisand.
That's my role in that show.
And then this is a Moltenfest pin from our recent film festival. Yeah, Maltenfest. We did the
first one a few months back in May and it was a delight. And you kicked it off
in fine fashion and thank you for that. Thank you so much. I've also brought a copy of my latest
book called Hooked on Hollywood.
latest book called Hooked on Hollywood.
Yes.
I'm just going to turn to a page,
read a passage,
and then tell you why you're wrong.
Save that for another time.
Tomorrow at 1 p.m.
Yes.
Oh, what would I even... Because that's the thing. When I disagree with Leonard,
when I read a review where Leonard doesn't like something,
I go, well, I get it. I get why that's...
I understand why he didn't like it.
And I'll
know, but it's still probably something I
will like, or I know when I'm
going to agree with you. But you know what I mean?
It's just a sensibility thing, right?
Well, when people say they like my reviews,
if people say they like my reviews,
it's usually because they agree with me.
I mean, that's the whole thing about reading a critic
or following a critic online or radio or TV,
is that you choose people that have a kind of a simpatico with you.
And even if you don't't you know their prejudices you know they're you know their taste and you can adjust
accordingly I'm just gonna say it now I might not make it tomorrow
Garfield to a tale of two kitties is very underrated do duly noted duly noted Right. Duly noted. Duly noted. Thank you.
Thank you.
I just like saying the title more than actually watching that movie.
Graham, what was the last movie you saw in any format?
Just most recent.
I saw the movie Yesterday.
The Danny Boyle movie.
Oh, I was going to say which movie.
I didn't ask you when you saw it
I'd like to know
yesterday
and you liked it
yeah I did
I liked it a lot
it's a love letter
to the Beatles
it was a
really beautiful film
and it was
I think
the dead ones
the alive ones
whichever Beatle you are
you've got to sit back
and go wow
that is so great of them
to honor me
by pretending
I didn't exist but my but my music did get created by some other random dude.
What an honor.
What an honor.
Finally, those Beatles getting the recognition that they deserve.
Yeah, everybody says it's super fun.
Did you see the trailer?
Yeah.
Did you feel it didn't sell it right?
No, I felt, you know,
I don't know,
I've watched a million trailers
so I knew what it was going to be
and there was a thing in the trailer
I was like,
I know that's his imagination
that didn't really happen
so I don't know.
I was down with the whole thing.
Right on.
It's been great talking about
yesterday with you.
Right on.
It's been great talking about yesterday with you.
What was the weather yesterday, Graham?
You know, Mark, I'm glad you asked that.
It was breezy with a little marine layer that burned off in the afternoon. It's going to be a wet and warm weekend down in sweet L.A.
because I know San Diego cares about the weather in Los Angeles.
It's going to be a nice Comic-Con weather.
Perfect.
It's going to be like in the 70s.
It's not going to be too hot.
It's going to just be a delight.
It's going to be just a treat.
Just a bag of jelly beans wrapped in a bow.
Just drinking free coffee and a makeup wipe.
It's going to be that all together.
Oh, you included my gift.
Yes, I did.
Oh, thank you.
I was like, did he give coffee beans in that bag too?
That doctor is truly without borders.
He went to Columbia just for some beans.
I know.
It's crazy.
He'll go anywhere.
Mark.
Sir.
What was the last movie you saw?
Doug, I am prepared to field any of your questions
or any of the gallery's questions
about a new movie that features a lot of talking animals
in Africa called The Lion King.
The new one.
Not the old, not the,
not the one we're putting out to pasture.
The new one, the 2019 movie. Yeah, what's new about it?
Well, the lions are real, I believe
I believe they took National Geographic cameras to the wild
And they couldn't see the humans
So they're like, well, fuck it, I guess we're gonna talk
As we do
And even the really smart monkey is like, well,
there's no humans here, so I'll do my painting.
Are the songs shorter?
The songs are shorter. It's funny,
yeah, the songs are shorter because when you see the
94 Lion King, they go full
musical with like, hey, we're gonna start a song,
it's got a beginning, middle, and end. Here,
the lions sing for a little bit, and then it's almost like they're like, we're gonna start a song, it's got a beginning, middle, and an end. Here, the lions sing for a little bit,
and then it's almost like they're like,
we're real, what are we doing here?
Let's not, lions don't do this.
Anyway, back to you, Hakuna Matata.
I heard that Can You Feel the Love Tonight
takes place during the day.
Can You Feel the Love Tonight
takes place during the afternoon.
Which unfortunately is already a song
called Afternoon Delight.
You guys clap at that,
but I walked you on the Starbucks cop joke.
All right, I see where this crowd's at.
No, look, Doug, I loved it.
I love the Lion King.
The technology's amazing.
It is incredible to see how realistic
all these animals look.
It's like you're watching, like, a Disney nature thing
with talking animals, the one exception being
none of the male lions.
I've seen male lions on National Geographic.
That laugh... means that that guy gets me.
That means loves lion dong?
Is that what you're saying?
There is no lion taint.
There's no lion balls.
There's no lion hog in this movie
whatsoever.
Warthog.
There is a warthog.
But not the lion's warthog.
But if the lion's warthog. Oh, okay. I see, I see, I see. But if the lion's warthog sang,
that would be awesome.
So you want a lion's dick
to sing the circle of life?
Who better, though?
Really?
Right.
The circle of life.
Yeah, lion cock.
That's not really a song.
It's more like a half-moon.
That was a great Seth Rogen impression.
But the movie is really good.
If you're a fan
of The Lion King at all,
I suggest you
don't worry about critics
that are saying,
oh, it's the same movie.
That's what they're
selling you on.
You see the ads
and you think you're
getting a different movie
than what you saw in 1994,
that's your fault.
If you want to go see
The Lion King again,
you want to feel like it's real animals,
you're going to believe it.
It's great. At the opening sequence,
Jimmy John gets killed in the stampede.
It's like the best scene.
Again, we went topical,
you guys refused it. Okay,
come back.
Reel it back.
I don't get it.
There's something topical in there?
Yeah, the owner of Jimmy John's,
he's killed animals in Africa.
Today?
Yeah, down at Hall H.
He just did it.
I mean, you know what topical means, right?
It's a thing on...
Topical means what the blue bird on Twitter
is talking about. And the blue bird on Twitter is talking about.
And the blue bird was talking about Jimmy John killing animals
while I was having the guy slice my meat at Jimmy John's.
And I thought it was wrong.
Wait, is this like a sex term thing?
Is this like a...
The guy at Jimmy John was slicing my meat,
if you know what I'm talking about, ladies.
It was the circle of life.
Yeah.
Traffic on the fives.
You made the traffic guy dirty.
You can make anything dirty if you want.
Oh, boy.
I just don't feel like I ever want to see the animated Lion King again, so why would I watch this?
Because I just feel like I'm done with it.
I feel like I've heard the story.
I know the songs.
I just feel like I'm good.
And I think Jon Favreau is very talented,
and they've got cool people doing the voices, but so what?
I don't get it.
Timon and Pumbaa.
Billy Ogner and Seth Rogen.
I don't know who plays who.
They're great.
I don't know who plays who.
Keegan-Michael Key and Eric Gondry.
They're fantastic.
Can't remember who plays which one.
But the vocal town really is stunning in this movie.
That makes it worth the trouble.
Even though you know beat for beat
everything that's going to happen.
Spoiler alert.
Simba's got a daddy.
What?
Don't get used to him.
Don't talk...
Yeah, they were like,
let's remake The Lion King.
But remember how we used to
Just have the father
Not in the picture
Let's get him
Let's show him
Getting out of the picture
Like let's do that thing
That's in every Pixar movie now
That scene was pretty rough
To watch
Pretty rough to watch again
But again
He dies
No lion balls
So was it really a death?
Clark We're back to you Apologies for the No lion balls. So was it really a dad? Clark.
We're back to you.
Apologies for the awkward transition.
It's what I'm here for.
Lion balls.
And then Clark, what?
I am wearing a leopard skirt.
There's something to that I have to imagine.
Oh, thanks.
That was Uncle Scar in the crowd.
There he is.
Yeah. I like that skirt.
That's funny.
Okay, so I saw a documentary that is coming out
in the next couple of months,
and I know it's, you know, no spoilers,
it's a documentary.
It's called Memory, the Origins of Alien.
And this is from Alexander O. Philippe,
who did the hitchcock shower
scene documentary and uh the people versus george lucas um and uh i'm actually moderating a panel
for this 40 years of alien fandom tomorrow night um at 7 15 legion m is putting the doc out and um
i gotta tell you do we have any alien fans like as in ridley scott's alien yeah it's i gotta tell you, do we have any Alien fans? Like as in Ridley Scott's Alien.
Yeah, it's, I gotta tell, like as a horror fan,
as a genre fan, I've seen the movie a million times.
In fact, in high school, a teacher of mine made me write a paper on it for some reason
and I was like, this is weird, but all right.
And this documentary just really,
it started as an analysis of the chestburster scene,
and then it grew into just these wonderful origins of Dan O'Bannon.
And Alexander spends a lot of time in the documentary with Dan's wife, Diane,
who is basically carrying the torch for Dan's legacy,
and talking about Giger, and talking about Ridley Scott coming on board,
and these really big philosophical points and messages that are in Alien,
a movie we've probably all seen a hundred times.
And so anyway, I just, I'm like, also I'm in the documentary.
Okay, so there's that.
No, but really, I think this piece is so cool and so interesting,
and it's coming out later this year.
So it's called Memory, the Origins of Alien.
And you guys definitely should check it out.
It's really great.
I like it.
It sounds like a good title for live, die, repeat.
Yeah.
Memory.
Memory.
I mean, I'm sure once you've seen it, the title makes more sense.
Yes, it does.
It does.
Correct.
It does.
If you've seen it, the title makes more sense.
Yes, it does.
It does.
Correct.
It does.
I love that there's so many things that make, like you said,
that the thing about Hitchcock and the shower scene is so great that they're just breaking things down.
These docs about The Shining are great, too.
Yes, yes.
But anyway, Leonard, you've had all this time to think of the answer
no I have the answer
it's a really good movie called The Farewell
written and directed by Lulu Wang
who's an up and coming
filmmaker who's already gotten a lot of attention
I was disappointed in how little Wang
there was in Lion King
it can't always be about the schlong.
No!
You were all here when Leonard went blue.
I wish I could see Jesse Malton's face right now.
I know it's over here, but the light...
It probably matches her hair.
But anyway, yeah.
It's a really good film.
I've heard great things.
And it had a terrific opening weekend.
I was reading the best indie film opening of the year,
which is great because people have been worried about audiences not showing up for good movies like Late Night and Booksmart and other well-reviewed films.
So it's encouraging that they got a good start.
Yeah, and they'll do a release pattern now off of the publicity building into awards season.
And I suspect the movie will be a real player
because I hear it's great.
It's really good.
And Awkwafina is really good in it.
Awkwafina, this is her.
She's starting to...
Everybody knows who she is now.
And it's perfect timing to be in a great movie.
So good for them.
I look forward to seeing it.
I think you'll like it.
Thank you, sir.
Now, does everybody else,
do you see how that's done?
Movie review on the fives,
Doug.
Lion cock.
Doug, I'm here
with Graham Elwood
out of the 405.
The monkey is talking.
I repeat,
the monkey has spoken three words.
We don't know if it's Seth Rogen or not,
and who gives a shit as...
Helicopters are circling Mufasa.
We believe that to be a dead lion.
Ambulances are off the scene.
There's a fire truck.
There's a stampede.
We cannot confirm.
TMZ is now reporting Mufasa has passed away in the carnage.
The king is dead, Graham.
Well, the 405 jacked up from Long Beach all the way to Sherman Oaks
with a dead lion and the diamond lion.
Lion crank.
To the elephant graveyard.
That mud is boiling.
So be careful.
There's a lot of hyenas that are itching to get you out there.
Well, Graham and I have our new show.
Tune in, you guys.
This is going to be a big one.
Tune in.
And if you don't listen, no worries for the rest of your days.
All right, well, that was the part of the show
where I say, turn it off, Bird.
Let the games begin!
Let the games begin!
We got some name tags on our hands.
They go pretty deep. The people who made name tags on our hands. They go pretty deep.
The people who made name tags
got here later than the people who didn't.
Which is cool.
So if you could just
make your way to
as far as you need to go
to find one that you like.
Alright, we're back. Great job, everybody.
Leonard saw a name tag
in the very back of the room
that was being waved around. He said,
bring it to me, bitch.
We all had a nice laugh.
We're enjoying Leonard's blue face But why did you think you wanted this one?
Because I'm usually lazy and take the one that's nearest up front
But that's what Mark did tonight
So I thought
I'll go long
Okay, you went for the long ball
And you got, it says weddingding Chrisers instead of Crashers.
With Christopher Wedding.
Yeah, is Wedding really your last name?
Yeah.
Wow.
So you can see.
Yeah.
And he put all of his I Voted stickers on there for some reason.
It's also laminated, which is amazing.
Are you married, Christopher Wedding?
No.
What woman is gonna take that name?
I'm Mrs. Wedding.
Mom, a meatloaf!
Mom, a meatloaf!
This is our girl flower and our boy ring.
I'm good, man.
All right, thank you so much for bringing us... Oh, no, I don't drink.
I don't know who's bringing us all these drinks.
Yeah, he'll drink that one, too.
Mark will drink them all.
Yeah.
Thank you so much.
Thank you.
Suck it, Mark.
I'm just trying to get Mark Ellis drunk
so I could maybe win.
Yeah, we're good.
Right on the 605,
Mark Ellis had too much to drink.
Yeah, we ordered drinks during the break,
and so the listeners might be wondering
why we haven't been saying anything
for a few moments,
except for talking about drinks.
So Clark is playing for Better Off Fred,
who I spoke to earlier.
That's what her mom calls her.
That's what her what calls her?
Her mom.
Her mom.
Her mom calls her Fred.
Her actual name is William.
I love it.
This is a lovely board.
I'm not on it, but I still think it's great.
Yeah.
She picked some regulars, took some shots.
She did.
Yeah.
Next year, maybe I'll make it.
You never know who's going to show up.
Yeah.
Fix it for next year.
Next year.
2020.
That's going to be my year.
Yeah.
Mark picked one that wasn't right up front, but it is a good one.
No, it was right up front.
And it was this young man right here.
And I think it's the Breakfast Club with a lot of, I guess, Doug luminaries.
They may...
See, I feel two ways about this.
I'm in the Breakfast Club, which is an honor, but I'm not Emilio Estevez.
My personal trainer is going to be very disappointed.
But who is Emilio Estevez, Mark?
Sam Levine!
What?
Why?
He's totally Anthony Michael Hall,
but I was made Anthony Michael Hall.
It's another banner year
at the Ellis household.
I know that's the other guy's line.
I'm happy to be Molly Ringwald,
to be honest with you.
You are the princess.
I don't really relate to any of those dudes.
All right.
Especially now.
What?
Oh, just, you know, how we've lost complete interest in them as actors.
Oh.
Because if you're listening, Doug said that, burning a hole into my soul.
I'm just looking in your direction,
but also Leonard was very kind to ask
if we could all scoot over so that I'd be in the light,
but I'm actually enjoying being in relative darkness
compared to all of you and Eddie behind you.
It's nice and shady over here, you know.
The one guy that wore the sunglasses.
I can leave my jacket on.
We can scoot over if you want.
No, no, I like it. That's what I'm saying.
Graham Elwood, how's the sun in your direction?
Well, you know, Mark, there's a little bit of a sunshine
coming off out of the eagle
and Doug Benson's sunglasses.
Right like the Breakfast Club.
Thanks, Graham.
Who the fuck was that?
That was Molly Ringwald.
He's Molly Ringwald.
It's Eddie the Eagle.
The princess.
He just chimes in
every once in a while.
It's magic.
Who are we up to?
Who's next?
Eddie.
Who are you playing for?
Eddie's next.
No.
I'm playing for Sarah Wars
Episode 2,
a Zach of the Clones,
and then I'm assuming
Sarah and Zack
put their own faces
on here.
Is that correct?
Yes, you guys
are adorable.
Is that Jacob Searoff
on the poster as well?
Yeah, Jacob Searoff
for some reason.
He gets a plug,
and then this couple.
I mean, they'd know that Jacob would pick it
if he saw it and was here,
and then he would also have a pretty good chance of winning.
But I think Graham's also going to be a strong competitor today.
I think anybody has a chance.
We're all winners, Doug.
I left all my
trophies at home, though.
The I Participated trophy.
That's correct.
Instead, you can just listen to it on iTunes.
I'll give you a pass so you don't
have to pay.
RIP iTunes.
This is a free episode anyway. What's going on
with that? I have no idea.
I see my phone.
I see the music button.
I hit it.
It still plays music.
I'm happy.
All right, that's the update on what's happened.
What's happened to iTunes.
Chaos in Silicon Valley.
Rest in peace.
Still working as always.
Rest in peace.
You're a real mixed newsman over there.
You really don't...
It's unclear if it's good or bad, what's happening.
That's who everybody's playing for.
I've designed, put together a few fun games
for everybody on stage.
Let's give them a go, shall we? I'll try to read
them from my spot in the relative darkness. Oh, that'll work. That'll do it.
Don't cheat, Leonard. I don't know if you've played this one before, Leonard, but it's
super fun, super fast-paced. It's over before you know it.
It's called Live, Die, Repeat.
First person on stage to correctly repeat back
the correct and full title that I am saying wins.
I will say it, you repeat it.
It's that easy.
But who's gonna say...
Wait, what the fuck is this game now?
I haven't done this show in a year,
now there's just a game where we just say what you say?
I say...
I swear you've played this game before,
but I say the title of a movie,
and then you, first person to repeat it back,
wins the game.
Okay.
Yeah, let's...
Do you want to do a test one?
Yeah, let's do a test one.
True Grit.
True Grit.
C. Clarke won.
I would like to say I came in second because I said...
Okay.
I wasn't sure.
All right.
Bad news, Fred.
That might be it for us.
Leonard just rode that one out like,
too easy.
I'm waiting for the tough ones.
Do you want to try another one, Graham?
No.
I think I got it.
I think I can...
Okay, because I got a lot of them.
I can think of a lot of movies.
But the one I wrote down...
All right. I can hear a lot of movies. But the one I wrote down... All right.
I can hear a lot of words,
so I feel like I got a good shot at this one.
You all have a good shot at this.
And the title is...
Abbott and Costello.
Abbott and Costello.
We all know that their movies had more words than that.
Abbott and Costello meet Dracula.
Abbott and Costello meet
the...
Abbott and Costello meet the Wolfman.
Abbott and Costello
meet
the...
Abbott and Costello meet the mummy.
Abbott and Costello
meet
the killer Abbott and Costello meet the
killer
Boris Karloff.
Abbott and Costello meet the killer Boris Karloff.
That is the full correct title.
Leonard, why did you do that?
Why did you give it away?
Can I sit by Leonard for this game?
Quark Wolf just stole that man's candy.
I'm sorry, Leonard.
She reached right in that bag and took it.
Fair.
But yeah, that is how it works, Leonard.
So you did lose.
They were all jumping the gun.
But there are much bigger losers on this stage than you.
And I dare say that your assist...
Would you have gotten that one, Clark?
Would you remember Abbott and Costello
meet the killer Boris Karloff?
Would I have remembered it?
Yeah.
Well, I just did.
No, once he said Boris Karloff,
I mean, that was the only two words left in the title.
Clark Wolf getting saucy.
It's all the rosé, y'all.
I picked that one just because I thought,
I had not ever, in my mind, I hadn't heard of that one.
I didn't know that Boris Karloff's name
was just his name in one of those movies,
not the monster that he plays.
It does ring, yes, it's specifically Boris Karloff.
He's dressed as the Grinch in a onesie.
It's a great movie.
No, I just listened to You Must Remember This
about Bella and Boris.
Like, meaning a five...
There you go.
She was just doing the research.
I really did, actually.
Listen to that podcast.
It's very good.
How is that movie, Leonard, that... It's very good. How is that movie, Leonard?
It's pretty good.
Because you like Abbott and Costello movies
in general.
I do.
And Abbott and Costello
Meet Frankenstein
is a great movie.
That's the best one,
you think?
That's the best.
Of the monster stuff they did,
that's the best.
Who else did they meet
that wasn't a monster?
The mummy.
Well, it wasn't a monster.
Yeah.
The Keystone Cops. There you go. Yeah. They didn't a monster? The mummy. Well, it wasn't a monster. Yeah. The Keystone Cops.
There you go.
Yeah.
They didn't go around meeting anybody else.
Not really.
That wasn't a monster.
That was really the thing.
They had to be...
One of them had to be scared.
The other one had to not know what was happening.
In all those scary ones.
What did they do with the Keystone Cops?
Just run along with them?
In a mob? It's not a very
good movie. Okay.
They all
got mediocre together.
Did they ever meet Tarzan? Why didn't they
meet Tarzan? Good question.
Wrong studio. Oh, okay.
Creature of the Black Lagoon?
Did they meet him? No.
It's gotta go to better parties.
All right, so Clark won that game.
That means she gets to go first
in a game I like to call
Whose Tagline Is It Anyway?
Yes.
This is a hard one, Doug.
This is a tough game,
and tonight might be the toughest edition yet.
Oh, boy.
Yeah, because look at these players
we have on the stage. Yeah. I'm going to Oh, boy. Yeah, because look at these players we have on the stage.
Yeah.
I'm going to try, Fred.
That's all you can do
is call a woman by a man's name.
I missed the story.
I'm just assuming it's Fred.
That's what her mom calls her,
so that's what we're calling her.
That sounds like an insult. Your mom calls her, so that's what we're calling her. That sounds like an insult.
Your mom calls you Fred.
We got traffic backed up on the 110.
Apparently, Abbott and Costello met the Keystone Cops.
Keep things in order down here in the harbor.
We're running out of freeways down here at the Los Angeles Joke Freeway segment.
We got the 710, Graham.
Do one about the 134.
Do one about the 134.
I like that.
See?
Do one about the 134.
Such a really, really niche comment.
Abbott and Costello meet the Toluca Lake Freeway,
ladies and gentlemen.
Nailed it.
Nailed it.
Nailed it.
The Toluca Lake Freeway.
Okay.
I'll start with Clara because she won the last game.
Then we'll go to Leonard and then Graham and then Mark.
And I'll just say the tagline from a motion picture.
You take a guess.
What movie you think it might be?
No presh.
Sometimes you can figure it out
because a theme will emerge.
That'll help you to get there
because these taglines are terrible.
Great.
Clark, what movie had the tagline,
the most magnificent picture ever?
Let me just repeat that.
Let's have Abbott and Costello meet
the most magnificent picture ever?
The Magnificent Seven.
That would be...
make some sense. I know.
Wait till you hear
this answer, though. I'm excited,
actually.
Leonard,
what do you think is the most magnificent
motion picture ever?
My Fair Lady.
No.
I mean, they really...
Sorry, Governor.
Graham?
The Sound of music Okay
I see what you guys are doing
Not right
But you know
Of all the wrong answers
It's not that wrong
It's a tagline from a bygone era Doug
You're not going to hear anybody say that
About the Lion King 2019
I'm going to go with Citizen Kane.
That's an interesting guess.
Somebody in the crowd went, no.
Like they know.
It's not Citizen Kane.
No, the actual answer is Gone with the Wind.
Of course.
You could see a sweeping Meadow-y dress
Running flower
You could see people not giving a damn
You could see all of it
You could see the whole thing
The tagline for Citizen Kane
It's terrific
Yes
Hey sometimes the truth
Will really help sell something
Should have been It's a sled right Hey, sometimes the truth will really help sell something.
Should have been, it's a sled, right?
What a ride.
Or yeah, or no, just... I wish I was a critic at the time
because it would be fun to just give it a two-word review.
Rough sledding.
Okay, so we're back to Clark.
She gets the next one.
Okay.
And you guys, those were all great guesses.
Somebody's going to get one of these right.
I can feel it.
The greatest picture in the history of entertainment.
Wow.
This is when studios could give their own taglines.
All right.
All right.
Oh, geez, Louise.
Was DC like Aquaman?
The greatest picture in the history of entertainment.
Okay, the greatest picture in the history of entertainment.
Is that right?
Yes.
Okay.
Sounds way more sophisticated when you say it.
Mine's more like, you know.
Okay.
I don't know.
How about...
Casa...
Casa what? Casa what?
Casa what?
How about
Citizen Kane?
No.
If it's Casablanca, I'm gonna lose my
effing mind, y'all.
Leonard,
greatest most picture... I'm making a stab here. mind, y'all. Leonard, the greatest, most pictures...
I'm making a stab here.
Around the world in 80 days.
Oh, that's another great guess.
Because they really hyped that.
Graham?
Ben-Hur.
You guys are killing it.
Mark?
Ben-Hur's not my choice.
I'm ready to accept my point when I say the Ten Commandments.
Oh, no.
It wasn't Garfield 2, A Tale of Two Kitties.
No.
Leonard Maltin, ladies and gentlemen.
There's a professional on stage, ladies and gentlemen.
That was amazing.
Very funny, Leonard, but we all know that's the second greatest movie.
That's the second greatest movie.
The answer is The Wizard of Oz.
Wizard of Oz. All right.
Oh, I've noticed a pattern, Doug.
From 1939.
The problem is I don't know any more of his movies.
Clark.
Yep.
Here's the next one.
Whose movies? Exactly. Here's the next one. Whose movies?
See? The Tin Man?
Yep. Nailed it.
Now this one is just ridiculous.
This one, I imagine
it's just something Gary Marshall said
and then they said let's use it.
And he had nothing to do
with this movie. It's just in his voice.
What an action picture! What an action picture!
Alright.
I have had a couple of glasses of rosé,
but I'm pretty sure
Victor Fleming
directed both Gone with the Wind
and The Wizard of Oz.
Credited director.
Notice how I'm looking at Leonard only.
But, that said,
I'm going to steal a previously said answer.
Ben-Hur.
No.
Damn.
Fuck.
Leonard.
Gunga-Din?
No.
No.
Graham.
What an action picture.
Spartacus.
No.
God damn it.
Mark.
It sounds like it would have been said
before the time of North by Northwest.
I'm just, I'm reading the murmurs in the crowd. Um, from 1939. Uh, yeah. Mr. Smith goes to Washington. Yeah. That's not an action movie. Mr. Smith's gonna get shit done in Washington.
I would say...
I'm gonna go north by northwest.
The correct answer is Stagecoach.
Ah, that damn John Wayne.
Stagecoach from 1939.
So these are all...
Clark.
Not an action picture. stagecoach from 1939. So these are all... Clark. Yes, sir.
Capra at his greatest.
Okay.
Okay.
The crowd is excited.
Or figuring out
their checks.
I think this is a Frank Capra movie.
Welcome to the Frank Capra panel at Comic-Con.
Well, you literally...
Oh, I don't want to say that out loud.
Okay.
But what year for James...
Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.
That is correct.
Leonard Maltin goes first in this next round.
What movie had the tagline, Leonard?
Swaggering Sons of Battle.
That's Gunga Din.
That's Gunga Din! Leonard Maltin That's Gunga Din. That's Gunga Din!
Leonard Maltin with the Gunga Din!
Amazing.
So now, Leonard and Clark both have a point in this game, and of course we all know that Mark and Graham are here.
Still on the 134.
The Toluca Highway.
All those films were from 1939,
the year when it was all hype all the time.
Citizen Kane, of course, came out in 41.
But I'm going to do one more as a tiebreaker.
This is just for Leonard and Clark.
You each get one guess,
because it's probably going to be the right one.
So it's whoever says it first.
Get your microphones ready.
All right.
Get those mic mouths ready to go.
When I say, Garbo laughs.
Nienochka.
Leonard Maltin wins the game!
laughs. Ninochka.
Leonard Maltin wins the game!
Destroying the competition tonight,
Leonard. What's different? What did you have for dinner?
He said schlong, Doug.
Ninochka and
schlong in one night
to remember.
That sounds like a...
Is that like Abbott and Costello?
What?
Nanachka and Schlong.
Nanachka and Schlong meet the mummy.
Yeah.
They're like Abbott and Costello,
but not nearly as successful.
Yeah, they were...
That's Graham and I's radio show.
Welcome back to the Nanachka and Schlong show.
Good morning.
They were... That's Graham and I's radio show.
Welcome back to the Menasca and Schwan show.
Good morning.
You see which bomb can drink a full gallon of milk in a helicopter.
You know, I still think Jacob Ciro's going to win tonight.
All right, we got one more game to determine who's going home with the prizes.
And that game is called Last Man Stanton.
Let's go to, hold up your name tag if you brought one and it didn't get picked, obviously.
And you have a suggestion for a name for Last Man Stanton.
All right, this gentleman over here
and this lady right here,
you can put the lights back down.
I don't need to...
I don't need to look deep into their eyes.
But thank you for that.
Here we go.
Mark's getting another beer.
Yeah.
Do you feel like you get better or worse
at movie trivia when you are drinking?
You tell me when the movie trivia starts, Mr. Benson.
I'm ready to play.
This beer is the most majestic beer of all beers.
All right, so we're going to get...
You know this game, right, Graham?
We're going to get a name from the lady sitting over there,
and then we're going to take turns naming movies that person was in.
I play along in this game, but I cannot win, ultimately.
You each get to go to your lifeline once.
Your lifeline is the name tag you chose.
So I hope you didn't pick dummies.
Or go to them early.
I'd say go early to the lifeline.
That's my advice.
Leonard won that last game.
So we're going to start with him.
That's going to go to me, then Graham, then Mark, then Clark.
Mostly because I like saying Mark, then Clark.
And what's your name,
young lady? Nicole.
Where do you live?
San Diego.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Thanks for making the effort.
I don't know.
I just felt less invasive than
what do you do for a living
but I might as well ask as long as we're there
I'm a first AD
first AD
film and television?
okay
what?
someone in the audience just guessed
what she's worked on
got it wrong by the way What? Someone in the audience just guessed what she's worked on.
Got it wrong, by the way.
You know, there's nothing like a game show breaking out during a game show.
I believe the guess was silk stockings.
I don't think this young lady was even alive
when silk stockings was on.
No, maybe a burn notice.
Or a suit.
Can you say what show it is?
It's an independent film.
Oh, it's an independent film.
All right, cool.
The film is in Vietnam right now?
I hope it comes back soon.
Bring our boys home, Doug Alright
I'm reading the crowd
Topical humor from 50 years ago
You laugh at that
But not the cop joke
I mean
A little
The eagle supports what you're doing, ma'am You laugh at that, but not the cop joke. I mean, a little.
The eagle supports what you're doing, ma'am.
I literally just saw Miss Saigon last night,
so it's very fresh for me.
I really did.
I was at the Pentagios.
It was great.
It was sad.
Anyway.
Is it like a, you know,
is it one of those like a long-distance romance movies between somebody in San Diego and somebody in Vietnam?
Is a psychological thriller currently playing theatrically
in Vietnam? Oh, psychological
thriller, and it's playing in Vietnam. When she said
our movie's in Vietnam, the copy
of the movie is playing
somewhere
in Vietnam. There's a DVD
player in Hanoi
right now, ladies and gentlemen,
that has this movie
and it's amazing.
And Mark Ellis wants to have a GoFundMe
to bring it home safely.
You know, Graham and I
did a radio show in Vietnam
in the late 60s.
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I heard it was
an afternoon show and people hated the
yelling.
We'll take it from here, Adrian.
Happy afternoon,
Vietnam!
People just kept getting mad because they're like,
why are you giving us LA traffic reports
in fucking Hanoi?
And we were like, we're trying to expand
your culture and like,
everyone got mad. It was fucking stupid, man.
We're trying to do something different and they just kept
shitting on us creatively.
They were not interested in the 135.
I know. It's the Toluca Lake fucking highway.
Not into it.
Get on board.
Alright, sorry about that.
What, um...
What's your name again?
Nicole.
Nicole, thank you.
And who would you like to suggest, Nicole?
Drew Barrymore.
Drew Barrymore, the great...
The great Drew Barrymore.
A trilogy comes to mind immediately.
I think that's a good one for this panel,
but I'd like a backup.
I'd like a second name just to keep this interesting.
And where is that other gentleman
I said I'm coming back to?
Yeah, what's your name, dude?
What is it?
It's Finnish?
Have we met before?
We have.
So we're not done yet?
We're not finished?
Doug Benson comedy, ladies and gentlemen.
Oh, so stupid.
Alright, so.
But anyway, nice to
see you again. And I'm sorry
I can't pronounce your name.
You can do lessons after.
Teach me out on the street.
And what do you do wherever you're from?
I'm a teacher.
Teacher? Okay.
Literally nobody clapped.
They're like, the apocalypse is going to happen in three months.
You got any students in Vietnam?
Jesus Christ.
Wow.
What's the name of the school that you
teach at? Just because
we do some background checks
when people want to
make a suggestion.
Can you say it? Are you loud?
I just want to hear
a fun word in your tongue.
Yeah, see? I knew I wouldn't be able
to pronounce that either.
So you don't have to worry
about me repeating it back.
Devil's Rock?
You teach at Devil's Rock?
I think Abbie Costello
met that.
I want to go to your school
so bad.
I would prefer the CW
to make a show
about your school. Exactly. I want to go to that school so bad. I would prefer the CW to make a show about your school.
Exactly.
I want to go to that school.
Welcome to Devil's Rock.
I'm Zach.
You're going to love the swimming team.
Thursdays after Riverdale.
Okay, so what's your suggestion, sir?
The only name that came to mind is John C. Reilly. John C. Reilly is a great one. The only name that came to mind is John C. Reilly.
John C. Reilly's a great one.
The only name that came to mind.
That's a great one.
The only name that he thinks about
when he's teaching all day at Devil's Rock.
Wow.
May I make a request to the bar staff?
Oh, sure.
Voice of God.
You're really knocking them back tonight, Clark.
Listen, it is my first night of Comic-Con.
I'll get you another free one when this is over.
Well, I'm not in any hurry.
Thank you, by the way.
But if anyone, if you're listening,
dear God, it's me, Mary Margaret.
Dear God, it's me, Clark.
Is there a box of rosé in the back?
Yeah, exactly.
May I please have a rosé?
Can we get a crate of rosé
for Miss Wolf?
And then the 134.
It's really great
if you know the word 34
because there's lots of ladies
like me.
You know, in Finland,
they call rosé
the devil's rock.
Ooh, Thursdays
after Riverdale.
We've got John C. Reilly
and
this is a great memory game.
Drew Barrymore.
Drew Barrymore.
Drew Barrymore.
So we got all the great acting
Irish acting
dynasties.
You feeling
comfortable, Leonard?
You're supposed to say, I make a good living.
Do you know the films of the...
You know John C. Reilly and Drew Barrymore.
Sure. I think Drew Barrymore would be more fun.
We're doing both.
Okay.
Take turns saying movies that either one of them are in.
I just thought of one that they're both in.
If it's not been said by the time it gets to me, I will.
I will say it.
All right.
We'll start with Leonard because he won that last game.
Right?
Cyrus.
Oh, interesting
choice. John C.
Reilly and Cyrus.
Look at this. The rosé is flying in.
Thank you so very much.
Thanks, dude.
Clark.
The films of John C. Reilly
or Drew Barrymore.
Yes, all right.
Either or.
Yes.
E.T., The Extraterrestrial.
Mm-hmm.
John C. Reilly was great in that one.
Yeah, he and Debra Winger are the voice of E.T.
Mark?
I think the funniest comedy post-2000 is Step Brothers.
Okay.
Smattering from the crowd like Mickelson tapping in for bogey.
Stan and Ollie.
Oh, okay.
Drew Barrymore plays Stan.
It's fucking fantastic.
Totally snubbed by the Academy.
One dude in the lab.
Wait, Doug, you had the movie they were both in.
Yeah, Never Been Kissed.
Yeah, he plays her boss at the newspaper thingy
where she works.
Where Grossy Josie works.
Yeah, I know the movie way too well.
Leonard.
Firestarter.
Yes!
Firestarter!
Yeah.
Rest in peace, prodigy.
I'm going to go Charlie's Angels.
Oh.
I thought you said Charlize for a second there.
Charlize Angels?
I would like to see that reboot, but no, Charlie's Angels.
Mark?
Doug, I'm taking Clark's answer up a notch.
Charlie's Angels, full throttle. Oh, a notch. Charlie's Angels full throttle.
Oh, my God.
There's no more throttle after full, right?
That's the most throttle you can have.
Most throttle.
That's why they stopped the series.
Too many throttles?
They redlined it early.
What's this new one called?
Is it just Charlie's Angels again?
Is it back to square one, or does it have more words?
It's just Charlie's Angels?
I think it's a reboot, right?
Is it full on reboot? Mm- just Charlie's Angels? I think it's a reboot, right? It's a full-on reboot.
Looks all right.
Graham?
Heart 8.
Oh, interesting.
Oh, that's how you want to play this?
Yeah, that is.
I'll do this all day long.
That's right, bitch.
Boogie Nights.
Here we go.
Here it goes.
Leonard? Ever After. Here it goes. Leonard.
Ever After.
Mm-hmm.
Yes.
One of the great Paul Thomas Anderson.
Clark.
All right.
I'm not going to say it out into the microphone.
Um.
Talladega Nights.
The Ballad of Ricky Bobby.
Very good.
Mark?
Walk Hard, The Dewey Cox
Story. Yes.
Not the Graham Elwood
story.
Shit.
Don't forget, you got a lifeline, Graham. I do have a lifeline. And also, don't forget you got a lifeline Graham
I do have a lifeline
And also don't forget that between them
Drew Barrymore and John C. Reilly
Have been in 200 films
Why do you think I ordered another drink Doug
We're gonna be here a while
God damn it
I have all these movies and everyone picks them Then I forget and then I can't remember We're going to be here a while. God damn it.
I have all these movies and everyone picks them and then I forget and then I can't remember.
It's fucking stupid. I hate this game.
I miss the Leonard Maltin game.
Who's my big boy wearing a Batman jersey?
I am.
All right, Lifeline, what do we got?
Hi, hello. Hello, Lifeline. What do we got? Hi?
Hello?
Hello, Lifeline.
Oh, the Lifeline.
Like Batman's parents, gone.
Like a strand of pearls.
Too soon.
Too soon.
Clasting.
Smashing to the ground.
Totally too soon.
It's been 20 years, Bruce.
On Bruce and Martha Wayne.
Totally too soon.
Where'd you get your name tag, Graham?
Some people in the back.
Where'd you guys, did they leave?
I don't know.
Okay, so what's your lifeline?
51st Dates.
Oh, there you go.
51st Dates.
Yes.
I'll go ahead and say blended.
God.
Oh, does that count?
What do you mean, does that count?
No, no, it was not Netflix.
Okay, never mind.
Sorry, sorry, sorry.
The Wedding Singer.
Yes, the trilogy is complete.
Chicago.
Ah, Mr. Cellophane.
Gonna go with a little beer for my main course
and boys on the side.
You guys like how I played this. What does that even mean?
I don't know.
Felt good in the moment, Doug.
It's a John C. Reilly
coming of age story.
He's so sexy in that.
I think I like boys on the side.
Graham.
Oh, fuck.
John C. Reilly Just thought of
I just thought of five of his
I'm sure
I'm sure
There's like 400 of them
And then let's see
If I can think of some
Drew Barrymore's
Yep got one
Let's see
John C. Reilly was in the movie
With
Here let's empty out your brain
Just real quick do your plugs
Don't think about it
And then we'll go back to the game
And then bam you'll have an answer
Yeah I'm on the Rick Meyers superhero kung fu
Extravaganza panel
I do this every year tomorrow
It's at 8 o'clock in hall 6A
It's super fun.
We show martial art movies.
It's a blast.
I do it with Chris Mancini,
my co-host of Comedy Film Nerds,
which you can listen to.
Mark has been on that.
Leonard's been on that.
Doug has been on that.
Clark, we're going to have you on that.
Thank you.
Suck it, Leonard.
No, Leonard's already been on.
Everyone on this panel...
Clark is the only one on this panel
who has not been on it,
so I didn't want her to be left out.
Thank you, Graham.
She's gonna be on it,
but Leonard can't suck it.
But in a nice, gentlemanly way.
And then, of course, I'll be in Las Vegas July 27th.
And then in Vegas, baby.
And then in September, I'm doing a run of shows.
I'm doing Omaha, Sioux Falls, Madison, Minneapolis, and Iowa City.
So go to GrahamElwood.com for all my tour dates.
Oh, shit.
Clap right there so I can stall
some more.
One of the funniest
men alive,
Graham Elwood.
All right.
Now say it.
We all know it.
There's no reason
to say it.
It's all on our tongues.
Like, we don't know
what to say.
Well, maybe there's
like an obscure one
that you know
that we might not
be familiar with.
Yep.
Starring one of those.
They both made a lot of different kinds of movies.
They did.
And she was in that fucking roller derby movie.
God damn it.
Oh, don't help him.
Do not help him.
Sit there quietly
waiting for me to say it when it's
my turn.
Because I had not thought of that one.
God
damn it.
I really missed the Leonard Maltin game.
I was so much better at that game.
It's just like...
Because this game you can't turn to the person next to you and go, name it!
Yeah, I can't just...
You gotta actually know something.
The problem is, I've seen too many
and I forget shit.
We all have that problem.
We all do that.
So, the Drew Barrymore
roller derby movie,
we all know it's called... Don't you dare.
You're coaxing it out of the crowd. They will say it if you keep doing it.
Wheels of Fury or something the fuck it's called.
God damn it. No.
Don't yell it out.
I don't need your help
I need to die an honorable death
but
John C. Reilly was in Holmes and Watson
god damn you
god damn you
you son of a bitch
that was amazing
that was amazing. That was amazing.
I knew you just had to clear your mind.
Just stop thinking about it and letting it come to you.
You know what I mean?
You just got to get in there and you got to whip it.
Yeah!
Yeah.
She was. And that was the most applause Holmes and Watson has ever
received.
And let's not forget that Drew Barrymore
directed that movie, too.
Holmes and Watson? No.
Whip it, as you well
know.
Yeah, whip it. Yeah, she's got kind of a more of a supporting role in there. It's more of an Ellen Page movie. But yeah. Okay. Doug, you should
describe the look on Grandma Wood's face right now for your podcast listeners. He looks like a
man on death row who knows his last meal is coming soon. He just pulled Holmes and Watson out of his ass.
Does he have another miracle inside
of him? Who directed
Wheels of Fury? That's my
question.
He might, inspiration may come
in the form of, you know, he might get triggered
by another title that we say.
Could happen. Could happen. Could be sequels.
Before getting back to him, yes.
Alright, so did you go, Leonard?
No.
No.
Here comes Leonard.
Look out, everybody.
Am I misremembering?
Never been kissed?
Yes.
We said that one.
We said that one.
That's the one they were both in.
Okay.
My lifeline, then.
Yeah, let's go to the lifeline.
Nicole, what do you got?
Let's do this, Nicole.
It's not me.
It's someone else, Chris.
Oh.
Yeah, Nicole was the one that suggested this.
The wedding.
Chris Wedding.
This nightmare.
Nicole, just call Vietnam.
No, you got to go to Chris Wedding.
What do you got, Chris Wedding?
Guardians of the Galaxy.
Oh, lovely. Guardians of the Galaxy. Oh, lovely.
Guardians of the Galaxy, volume one.
Clark?
One of my top five favorite horror movies of all time,
R.I.P. Wes Craven, Scream.
Let's all do
Rest in pieces
As part of our answer
Oh boy that's going to be tough
Oh no I got one
Rest in peace the relationship between
Drew Barrymore and Justin Long
He's just not that into you
Should have gotten better Doug
Yeah I don't know why this crowd Rejected abject meanness Should have gotten better, Doug.
Yeah, I don't know why this crowd rejected abject meanness.
Graham?
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2.
See what happens?
That's what happens.
He's back in it to win it.
Is he in Guardians 2?
He's not in it. Is he in Guardians 2? He's not in it.
Is he in Guardians 2?
Yes, he is.
Oh, yeah?
Tell us about the scene that he's in.
At the very end.
Oh, yeah?
What happens?
I don't know.
There's a lot of people.
They all got crazy outfits on.
He comes in with a thing.
He sang a song.
He did jazz hands.
He's in it. Yes. Yeah, I know. He did jazz hands. He's in it.
Yes.
Yeah, I know.
He's not in it.
Look it up.
I don't have to.
I've seen the movie.
He's not in it.
Glenn Close isn't in it either.
They were both in the first one, but they're not in the second one.
Exactly.
Peter Serafinowicz isn't in the second one.
It's just a little different.
Right.
Kurt Russell wasn't in the first one.
Get over it, Graham.
Do you have a substitute answer
Because we did pretend like you were right
That's very kind of you Doug
That's a very gentlemanly thing to do
Did anything else come to mind
Yep a bunch of them
You were so excited about that
I just had it right there.
I thought it was a slam.
I was like,
why aren't these guys picking it?
Well, because he wasn't in it.
That's why they didn't pick it.
And I'm going to go with...
Sorry, I didn't mean to distract you.
Oh, no, wait a minute.
Oh, here we go.
Avengers Endgame. He's not in that Oh, no, wait a minute. Oh, here we go. Avengers Endgame.
He's not in that either, and we all knew that.
So in the Marvel Universe, he's only really in one movie,
and we all just accept that and know it.
So I don't need to list off all the other Marvel movies
we know he's not in, like Ant-Man and the Wasp or whatever.
But we all remember john
c reilly in the classic don't look at me i am out on the 118. going to simi valley away from
graham elwood that's the ron reagan freeway we've got a lot of wrong answers in his library right now.
Maybe I have Alzheimer's like Ron Reagan.
Alright.
Come on, Graham. Comic-Con
starts in the morning.
People need
their rest.
Or they need to go drink. I don't know
what plan you're on.
Little of both.
Are people sleeping outside the Hall H this year?
What happens first thing tomorrow morning?
Something good?
You got Terminator Dark Fate and Top Gun 2 possible footage.
People are sleeping outside for that shit?
Where do you think I'm going right after this broadcast, Doug?
Who's going to be there?
What's the name person that's going to show up?
I'm hoping Tom Cruise.
I'm hoping.
T. Cruise is coming?
I hope.
I don't know.
Good night, everybody.
That's our show.
I got to go sleep on the grass under a tent near a sculpture.
Fun fact, his co-pilot in Top Gun, John C. Reilly.
Yeah, Goose, that was him.
All right, talk to me, Goose.
I don't know about this map.
Shake it, bank map. Shake it, bank map. Graham's out
there's that movie
there's an indie movie
where he's in the
swimming pool
and John C. Reilly
goes
oh yeah
that's a good one
can't wait to say it
I know
fuck
it's called like
Wichita
oh no Omaha no It's called like Wichita Oh no
Omaha
Iowa Falls
Alright I'm out
Thanks for playing Graham
Cedar Rapids
God damn it
I knew it was one of those cities in the Midwest
Motherfucker
Yeah Cedar Rapids.
Leonard.
Scream 2.
That's a fun guess.
That's all it was, a guess.
Yeah, because you know, Drew dies in the first scene in Scream 1.
But that was a good guess.
Thank you for playing.
I'm running dry.
Very interesting
statement to applaud.
Running dry. Clap, clap, clap.
Drew Barrymore starred opposite
Jimmy Fallon
in Fever Pitch.
Oh, that's right.
They had such chemistry.
Drew Barrymore, I also believe, played a character
in a film
that is named after
Mr. Graham Elwood and that would be
Batman and Robin.
Oh, no.
No.
What's happening? Nobody talk.
Let me handle this.
I know how you feel, pal.
You can see it, right?
You can see it.
You know it.
Guardians of the Galaxy.
John C. Reilly's running around with Drew Barrymore.
They made their own spaceship.
You can see it.
You can taste it.
You saw it in 3D.
You knew it's happened.
All right, everybody.
Chill.
All right, so that's your answer?
That's not my answer.
Wait a second.
But I won't say Batman Forever either.
Why not?
Because I don't want to, Doug.
That'd be too easy.
Oh, you feel like that's cheating?
I feel like that's cheating.
Okay, my turn. Why don't I give you a real answer? Oh, Doug. That'd be too easy. Oh, you feel like that's cheating? I feel like that's cheating. Okay, my turn.
Why don't I give you a real answer?
Oh, wait. I should
get the point for Batman Forever.
I'll do another movie.
Okay. I mean, it doesn't matter to me.
If I were Fred, I would be unhappy
about this decision.
I can name another movie, or I
can just... I can name six other movies.
I can name lots of other movies.
She's going to win anyway, so let's just move on.
Let's move on and I'll keep my...
And then she'll win.
I'll stay alive.
All right.
Famous last words, man.
Yeah.
All right, so you're going Batman forever?
Damn right I am.
Yeah, you see lion balls in it.
I can't believe you said Batman and Robin
because when we're talking ampersands,
the Drew Barrymore movie...
The Drew Barrymore movie
to speak of now would be...
Music and lyrics.
Good movie.
Drew Barrymore
was in a movie called
Mad Love.
Never heard of it.
You can Google it.
No, I'm all about
trust.
Well, it's back to me.
Yep.
You're done now, right?
I am not done.
Really?
I am not done.
What have you got?
By a long shot, because I'm going to have a few more cocktails,
and I'd wake up, and my favorite hangover cure is pancakes, bacon, and some home fries.
Oh.
I'm not done yet.
A little late rally from Mark Ellis.
Not done yet.
That was also in my pocket, Mark Ellis.
Yeah, I took it right out of Clark's pocket.
You sure did.
You guys didn't even see it.
Magic.
Well, Mark, Mark, I, you know,
feel like we could have been good friends,
but after hearing all of that,
I don't think I want to have anything to do with you.
I think we have irreconcilable differences.
Did you say the name of the movie yet?
It was in there somewhere.
Good luck finding it.
Her follow-up to E.T.
was irreconcilable differences.
First time we saw Sharon
Stone's boobs.
I know what it is now.
We'll be back with more, Mr. Skin.
Doug, speaking of sexy times,
Drew Barrymore
was in a movie called Poison Ivy.
Oh, yes yes she was
She seduces Tom Skerritt
Good flick
Can you blame her?
No I would have seduced Tom Skerritt too
There's some good ones out there still
Oh boy
Yeah
You played hard
Ooh ooh ooh What? I think I got one What? I think I got one What? Oh, boy. Yeah. You played hard.
Ooh, ooh, ooh.
What? I think I got one.
What?
I think I got one.
What?
And if I can get serious for a moment,
I think that all of my co-panels will agree with this.
We need to talk about Kevin.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
John's right.
It's a movie.
It's a movie.
You know what?
I love how we have the palm of our hand in this crowd.
Not, no, turn it back the other way.
Anyway, this crowd was like,
we really need to talk about Kevin.
This crowd, they didn't think it was a John C. Reilly movie.
They're like, what did Kevin do this week?
But actually, you know who we need to talk about?
Kong Skull Island.
I'll talk about that with you, yeah.
Alright, so we talked a little bit about
honoring posthumous
directors.
Let's give it up for the
icon Penny Marshall
and her movie
Riding in Cars with
Boys.
Make up your mind.
Are they on the side or are they
in the car?
Oh, no! Doug!
I think I get
to do this again.
I had some fun at the
expense of their relationship, but I believe
Going the Distance
is a movie with Drew Barrymore
and Justin Long. Yeah, another
Justin Long, Drew Barrymore movie. And the crowd is still concerned
about Kevin. Guys, he's going to be okay.
He's the new Robin. Kevin's fine.
Hey, Bruce, I heard Dick Grayson passed away. I'm Kevin. I do gymnastics. Where's the new Robin. Kevin's fine. Hey Bruce, I heard Dick Grayson
passed away. I'm Kevin. I do
gymnastics. Where's the suit?
Blah blah blah, blah blah blah.
Gangs of New York.
I legit don't
know. Well,
was Boys on the Side
an HBO movie
no
it wasn't
okay so
it was real
alright
that Grey Gardens thing
was an HBO movie
exactly
I wanted to be careful
I saw it in theaters
paid for Beethoven's third
snuck into
Boys on the Side
so Boys on the Side
what just happened?
Did you just try to Jedi mind trick me?
We already said boys on the side.
Oh, wait, but no, you just said Kong Skull Island.
You alluded to boys on the side.
You didn't say it.
No, we had already said it.
Oh, no, no, no, it had already been said.
It had already come up, yeah.
The eagle said it.
In that case...
The eagle caught it.
That's right, Mark.
Okay, don't worry, Fred.
I got two more.
Boys on the side is my favorite.
I got two more in the back pocket.
But, Fred, do you have anything for me?
Altered States.
Great.
Let's go with that.
Altered States.
Who's in that?
Drew Barrymore?
Yes.
No.
Like as a little kid, Lee?
Yeah.
Like she comes in and goes, what's up?
And they go, E.T.'s in that other soundstage.
Thank you, Fred.
Yeah, I don't know if I believe that.
Okay, well.
Because I think we saw her for the first time in E.T.
And then she's just an actress who's in stuff ever since.
I don't think she's ever.
Fred, how good do you feel?
Oh, somebody is showing up.
Somebody's got their phone.
So cheating much?
All right, but. Eagle, get him.
I'm just going to say,
we've had a lot of loosey-goosey rules tonight.
Yeah, so looking it up on your phone,
that's how game shows should work.
I don't know who looked that up.
Correct answer.
But that's what it says on some sort of IMDB or something?
Yes.
That she's in altered states?
Okay.
Don't worry, Fred.
She's taking it. Altered states.
We'll look into it later, but...
Maybe she's that ram with eight eyes.
Like me, Drew Barrymore.
Alright, I'm hitting the lifeline.
How we doing?
You still haven't gone to your lifeline?
I have not gone to my lifeline, no.
This is crazy.
He's going Tenacious D, the pick of destiny.
He's going Tenacious D, pick of destiny.
Tenacious D, the pick of destiny.
It's got Jack, it's got Kyle, and it's got Drew or John.
Ah!
Yeah, John plays Sasquatch in it.
Ah, gotcha.
Yeah, yeah.
Jack Links.
Very good.
All right, back to me, right?
Wreck-It Ralph.
Oh.
And Clark Wolf as Alea.
Well, we've got a full title situation here.
Yeah, you do.
You got this.
Wreck-It Ralph
breaks the internet.
Wreck-It Ralph 2
breaks the internet.
Okay.
Alright, I'll switch.
She's switching.
Ralph breaks the internet! Yes! Ralph breaks the internet. All right, I'll switch. I'll switch. She's switching. No, I'm going to switch.
Ralph breaks the internet.
Yes, Ralph breaks the internet.
Well done, well done.
Fix it, fix it, Felix fucks off.
That's the perfect thing to say with a cocktail in my hand.
As you take a swing, despite the team's thirst.
Fuck that guy.
Okay, where are we at?
We're at me.
Oh, yeah, and you're out.
No, I'm not.
You got one?
No, I'm not.
What do you got?
Doug, unlike some other people up here, maybe in your crowd,
I'm a big sports fan, and I love sports movies.
Okay.
I love sports cinema.
And while I don't know any sports movies that feature Drew Barrymore other than Fever Pitch,
I do know a movie that features John C. Reilly as the catcher
to Kevin Costner's pitcher.
That's right.
Throwing a perfect game.
For the love of the game, ladies and gentlemen.
For the love of the game, ladies and gentlemen. For the love of the game.
Thank you.
I'm leaving now.
Have a good one, everybody.
So good, Mark Ellis.
That was great.
That movie's about throwing a perfect game. I feel like I threw a good
seven innings here tonight.
That's a good one.
Park Wolf has nine more movies.
I've got a couple.
I've got Magnolia.
Might be the end for me.
What do you got, Clark?
I got Drew Barrymore in...
Santa Clarita diet doesn't count
a whole table just left
I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry
I got Drew Barrymore in
Donnie Darko
oh very nice
that's a sweet pull right there.
Mark?
Finally, we're here.
The end of the road.
I know she didn't try to seduce Tom Skerritt again.
Although there was a poison ivy, Ivy 2 because I rented it what if Poison Ivy 2
was her seducing John C. Reilly

Are there a lot of dogs?
I don't know, but you gotta love them.
That's all you gotta know.
You gotta love those dogs.
Yeah, you must love dogs.
If I made a name tag to come to my own show,
it would be Must Love Ducks.
You're going to see that sign at the next live show, I guarantee you that.
Please, someone make that for Comic-Con 2020.
All right, let me think if I can come up with one more.
Barrymore or Riley, but we did pretty good.
I think there's not much left, but there's probably something out there.
It's like, I can't believe you guys aren't saying it.
No, I'm going to call it.
Clark, you won.
Clark is our winner.
Thank you.
All right, bum me out with what we missed.

He wasn't in it.
He wasn't in it back there.
It was on his phone.
Someone said it.
It's real.
I'm still in it.
This game's still hot.
Hang on, Graham.
Let me talk to this guy
in the back that yelled that out.
What's your name, dude?
My name's Larry.
What three-way did you take?
I can't make it out.
I can't tell what your name is.
I'm from Denmark.
Well, okay.
Well, as far as I'm concerned, you're Finnish.
So, uh...
So, uh... I'm a teacher at a school
called The Devil's Ballsack.

Congratulations.
She'll put your face on the next one.
That'll be a nice deal for you.
See you at Starbucks.

I'll literally
probably see her tomorrow

area.

Yep.
And then what else do you want to plug right now?
Maltin on Movies, our podcast.
My daughter Jessie and I.
We had a great experience just a few weeks ago.
We flew to Santa Fe and interviewed George R.R. Martin.
Neat.
He owns the Jean Cocteau Cinema,
which is a combination
art house, movie theater,
cafe, bar, and bookshop.
Neat.
And he was great.
Listen to that, everybody.
Thank you.
Thank you, as always, for being here.
Thanks for having me, Doug.
We'll see you around the, you know, the thing.
We'll see you around the con, man.
Clark Wolf, what have you got to plug?
This weekend I will be bouncing around Comic-Con.
You can just check on Instagram and Twitter at Clark Wolf.
Clark with an E, Wolf with an E.
And I am going to be in the feature film, Satanic Panic,
starring Rebecca Romijn, coming from Fangoria in September.
And I am going to be opposite Barbara Crampton in Deathcember,
which is coming later this year.
I mean, I'm down for both of those.
Thank you, Doug.
I appreciate it.
I'd say
December's my favorite month after
Not Alive-ember.
It's a good month.
Mark Ellis,

are Clark Wolf and Rachel Cushing.
Woo! Yes! Thank you!
Thank you. But Doug,
I'm really here tonight to talk about
Kevin.
We need to.
We need to. Nothing brings down a room quicker than trying to talk about Kevin. We need to. We need to. Nothing brings down a room quicker
than trying to talk about Kevin.
Graham Elwood, promote yourself.
Like I said, all my tour dates at grahamelwood.com.
Tomorrow night,
Rick Meyers' superhero kung fu extravaganza
on Hall 6A.
And also a TV series I directed last year,
The First Nations Comedy Experience. It's a
Native American stand-up series. It's all the
episodes are available online at fnx.org.
That's amazing.
Woo-hoo!
Nice.
Yay!
We did it! Hey, Clark,
as the current champion on this show,
is there a possibility
that you could join us on Saturday
afternoon here
at 3.30? Are we in...
Oh, actually, yes. I think so, right?
You'll be around? In Sweet Home San Diego?
Uh-huh. Copy that. I'll be here.
All right, well... Yeah, let's do it.
We'll see if we can work that out.
Let's do it. Yeah, yeah, I can do it.
Doug, can you please have
Graham and I be traffic reporters from the back
of the room?
Yeah, if we could put you in a remote location, that'd be terrific.
That'd be a great first step.
We'll be in Sky 5, Doug.
Yeah, just get up there in the sky with your Los Angeles references, Graham.
Doug, we're up here in Oceanside right now.
Not a lot going on right now.
We just saw a meth deal occur.
We're stacked up full of face tattoos
right here on the five outside of Oceanside.
Just drove by Camp Pendleton.
Hey, those two buildings look like tits.
Back to you, Doug.
Traffic's really backed up getting into Del Mar.
How many horses will they kill this year?
Oh!
I mean, the number changes from year to year.
It's just curious.
I mean, I grew up in San Diego,
and I loved going to Del Mar as a kid,
but as an adult, I'm questioning that choice.
Yeah.
You know, it's cool, but it's also,
hmm, maybe not.
We don't need to do it anymore.
I feel that way about SeaWorld, the zoo.
Eddie's the only animal that is in his proper environment,
as far as I'm concerned.
Thank you guys so much for coming out.
Please come back Saturday if you can.
One more time for all of my guests, Graham Elwood, Mark Ellis, Clark Wolf, Leonard Malton.
As always, positive energy.
Thanks again to our pals over at Heinz Mayonnaise.
