And August 17th and 18th, I'm interrupting movies at the Alamo Drafthouse in Kansas City, Missouri. Graham, which of these movies do you think has sold the most tickets so far? I'm going to be interrupting Bad Boys 2, Laura Croft 2, Tomb Raider, Circle of Life, or whatever it's called. Or Jason vs. Freddy. Probably Jason vs. Freddy. Ah, Bad Boys 2 is walking away with it so far. Yeah, a lot more tickets sold for that.
Starting point is 00:03:53 But seats are available for all three. Go to DouglasMovies.com for links and deets. You want to play some Build-A-Title, Graham? Oh, I love Build-A-Title. People have said I don't play Build a Title enough on the live shows, and I tend to skip it when somebody new is on the panel, because it's a hard game to explain. Gee, maybe someone will make a really long card full of rules.
Starting point is 00:04:21 Oh, it's just... Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. So somebody suggested on Twitter, and I agree, that a good starter title would be Two Guns, because you can... Lots of movies end in number two, and there's a few that begin with the word guns. All right. Am I starting? Yeah, you are. Guns of Neverone. in with the word guns. Alright. Am I starting? Yeah, you are. Guns of Navarone. Oh, you son of a gun.
Starting point is 00:04:49 Son of a gun. Of Navarone. I was, uh, I was gonna say, if I got to it before you, I was gonna say gun-stoppable. What? Yeah. That would have been pretty clever. But guns of Navarone is inaccurate
Starting point is 00:05:05 So I will add to that I will make it two guns of Navarone Only you Navarone only you So you need something that begins with a U or ends with a 2 Short Circuit 2 You weirdo Short Circuit That's weirdo Short Circuit
Starting point is 00:05:26 That's like the Godfather 2 It didn't have a colon and some other Like you know back in business Or uh Yeah Let me look it up No you're gonna be disqualified Disqualified

I think that might have been before they did those, before they did the, put those crazy long, well, I guess there's always been subtitles. Shut up and look it up. Jesus.
Starting point is 00:06:03 God, not enough. Oh, my God. I can't believe I'm listening to this. Did you make a rule card? Shut up and look it up Jesus Oh my god Can't believe I'm listening to this Short circuit 2 Straight up Short circuit 2 So it qualifies Alright I don't know what that is
Starting point is 00:06:21 That's John Malkovich from Rounders Oh I thought that might be that But I don't know what that is, but... That's John Malkovich from Rounders. Oh, I thought that might be that, but I wasn't sure. Don't splash the pot. In my club, I will splash the pot whenever the fuck I want. What were you doing, Arnold Schwarzenegger? Ask Matt Damon. The line you said is actually Matt Damon's line. He says, don't splash the pot.
Starting point is 00:06:50 Yeah, he says it just like that. He goes, hey, Teddy, don't splash the pot. And then John Malkovich goes, in my club I will splash the pot whenever. And he starts splashing his chips all over the place. Right, but didn't it start where he told someone not to splash the pot, and then he did it himself and then...
Starting point is 00:07:06 No. Whatever. It's a stupid movie. Oh, come on. Take out the relationship stuff. That movie's great. All the card-playing scenes. Take out the fact that, uh...
Starting point is 00:07:19 Uh... That John Malkovich's character is supposedly the... one of the greatest heads up poker players and he has a tell as incredibly revealing
Starting point is 00:07:30 as suddenly twisting the top off of Oreo and eating the icing out pretty lame pretty lame well it's just cause you're a fucking
Starting point is 00:07:39 die hard card player but that yeah yeah that movie about cards is inaccurate about cards that inaccurate about cards. That John Turturro stuff? Come on. That scene where they're
Starting point is 00:07:50 in Atlantic City and Ed Norton goes, keep grinding it out, Kanish. That's noble work. And Ed Norton is such a tool in that movie and he never changes. Yeah, he's quite tool-y. It's a good film. Alright.

It should be like a fucking raging bull kind of switcheroo,
Starting point is 00:28:37 like he put on 100 pounds. Matt Damon goes from being completely ripped to looking like decent, and that's a big, big weight gain. Just a lot of movies that have the Smothers Brothers, Pat Nozzle, and Bob Zaney in them. Yeah. Narrowed it down pretty much to the one movie, I'm pretty sure.
