Doug hates candy wrappers screaming baby sticky seeds
With 50 as a top or kernels in his teeth
There's still not one that he won't see
Because Doug loves movies
Hey, hey, hey everybody
My name is Doug and and I love movies.
This is Doug Loves Movies.
Coming to you from the Nerd Melt showroom
in the back of Meltdown Comics in Hollywood.
It's Monday, May 23rd.
Seems like just yesterday was May 22nd.
Where's the time go?
2016, let me see your name tags.
Good, you brought some
Doug plugs
Wednesday night I'm anxious to get the guests out here
Wednesday night I'm doing Doug Lowe's
movies at Helium in St. Louis
and then stand up at the same joint
that's a gas on Thursday
bring your name tags
to both shows
St. Lou, Boston
Saturday May 28th at the Wilbur Theater
at 420. There's still some tickets for that.
And
the next Monday, May 30th,
Douglas Movies is back at the Gramercy Theater
in New York City.
DouglasMovies.com. That's DouglasMovies.com.
I probably, she goes without saying,
but just in case it'll help
ticket sales, Judy Gold will not be on the
next show in New York.
Aw, I know, right? I think she's hilarious.
But, you know, I can't always be right.
So,
I mean, about who would be a good guest.
But I'm excited about my guests tonight.
They're going to come out here in a second after I tell you
what I brought for the prize bag.
A Doug Loves Movies t-shirt.
Some
Deluscious cookies that they
give out when you're on uh at midnight um a sticker that i got this last weekend when i
was in gulf shores alabama somebody's handing out stickers that say ala bama
i don't know what what the point is of that but uh i thought it'd be fun to have some and give them away. And of course,
from my own personal collection
of VHS tapes,
an episode of the TV show
Gross Point
called The Opposite Off Sex.
I don't know if that's a typo, or that's
really what they were going for.
And then
an episode of Buffy
the Vampire Slayer
called The Gift,
which I think is a classic one.
It's a really good one. What happens in that one?
Nobody knows.
Wait, what?
I feel bad when I talk to you guys and then yell
at you later for talking, but what
happens in that one?
Oh, you weren't sure? No, that was the body
when her mom dies, right?
What? She dies in The Gift? Oh, you weren't sure? No, that was the body when her mom dies, right? What?
She dies in the gif? Buffy does?
And it's like, okay.
Shut up!
It turned into an Adam Sandler
character.
He's always telling somebody to shut up
at the top of his lungs.
And I brought matching ones.
There's two little fun rubber pipes from Peacemaker.
But we got two newbies in one.
It's pretty newbie as well,
because he's only been on the show once before.
Please, you guys, give a big warm welcome
to Mark Norman, Jesse Joyce, and Shane Black.
Hello, sir.
Hey, get over here. Oh, there's already a power struggle happening?
I forgot to mention, I also brought a signed poster of the Angry Birds movie poster.
Signed by me.
Threw my name on there.
Let's talk to the gentleman on the...
Gentleman on the... What is happening with him? I don't know. Mark took off again. Oh, Mark forgot the gentleman on the gentleman on the what is happening
with him I don't know Mark took off again oh Mark
forgot the prize for the bag all right thanks dude
just yeah there you go
to Mark's left
I'm just so excited that
he's here because I love his movies it's
Shane Black, everybody.
The Nice Guys is in theaters now.
Shane's over, he's just yawning. No, no.
I've had movies open before, it's just.
It's in theaters, you should see it. It's hilarious. Thank've had movies open before. It's in theaters.
You should see it.
It's hilarious.
Thank you.
We have one review in from the floor.
Hilarious.
We have a second on that,
so now we can all just shut the hell up.
I saw it today, in fact,
and I'm very excited that I saw it.
And I think it's one of those movies that's more fun
the less you know about it and
I believe the trailer shows
possibly something from the very last
scene in the film so I'm
very much against that so just watch
the movie
but my favorite thing that I think people should
look for is because it takes place in 1977
Los Angeles
you get a nice drive by
and the old Tower Records on Sunset Boulevard and that's magic of special
effects or stock footage how'd you pull that off no that's just that's that's
just digital painting yeah yeah but we you know you go back and you look at the
photographs and you and Joel Silver the producer was really meticulous about
getting everything.
Like, if there's a building there, he didn't think was there,
so we had to take two days to figure out if the building in the background was there,
that kind of shit.
But no one, you know, pays attention to.
But then apparently some people do.
I mean, you were very impressed with the verisimilitude then.
Yeah.
Yeah, sure.
I love a big word.
Also joining us... verisimilitude then. Yeah, sure. I love a big word. If that building was there, they knocked it the fuck down.
That's how diligent they were.
Right. Well, diligent, another big word.
This is a smart crew.
I don't know what Mark and I are going to do.
It's Jesse Joyce, everybody.
How's it going? Hello.
Hey, Joyce!
Current champion of the March march madness brackets tournament of uh at midnight i'm not i lost to paul f tompkins because he cheated at the end wait so i've always thought that you won but
paul f tompkins really won well i won in spirit everyone like i just watched the thing only heard
people say that you won well that's because he he is you can't watch the thing. I just only heard people say that you won.
Well, that's because he, you know, like, at the end, it's an answer.
It's just the two jokes, yeah.
Right, but it's anonymous.
And then his joke was a, it wasn't a joke.
It was just pandering for applause.
And so, you know what I mean?
Sure.
So it's like a cheat win.
Okay.
So I think that's why everybody thinks.
I think there is no cheating in it, but everybody has opinions about when you do.
Well, I have a track record backstage
of how many times I've won, how many times I've lost,
and how many times Moshe and Paul F. Tompkins
cheated against me, which I don't count.
I thought my first loss to Kumail Nanjiani,
I thought he cheated, but you know what?
Let's save this for later.
Let's you and I talk about this when we're just hanging out.
I was clarifying.
Yeah, yeah.
No, believe me.
I fucking start rattling off the stats
when people start telling me,
you know,
oh, Kyle Kinane's won the most times.
No, he hasn't.
It's Ron Funches.
And I am right behind Ron Funches.
That's why I know.
Yeah, sure.
Shane Black's going, what?
Let's introduce our third panelists on the panel he was on the New York show
recently a show there so this is his second time but first time on the west
coast it's Mark Norman
this is actually my my third time but it It is? Paul F. Tompkins cheated.
He's that fucking guy.
Everywhere you go.
I know, right?
Yeah, he's inescapable.
Third time.
And you did the Conan O'Brien show this evening.
Did it today, yeah.
Yeah, today.
Everyone can race home at the end of this tonight
here in Los Angeles and watch you do that.
Thanks, yeah.
And then everyone else, watch it on,
the clip will be online.
That's what we really do, let's be honest.
Yeah.
That's how it works with the Stan.
Get a porn window open, a Pinterest, and a Kona.
You're happy with it?
And when you lie, if you weren't?
It's never as good as you want,
but I did well, I think.
Okay, good.
Yeah. That's a perfect way to, that's a home run good as you want but I'm I did well okay good yeah that's all that's perfect
way to that's a home run thank you yeah you're totally mark sets are never as good as I want
I hope you guys aren't gonna fight all night like pro and Ryan Gosling in The Nice Guys in theaters now.
Top five at the nation's box office.
I'm just glad Jesse had come from moving furniture to be here.
I did, I did.
This is audio.
I don't need to dress up.
Oh, right.
So how did you,
did you write that movie for,
you co-wrote it with another dude.
Yeah.
But did you have those two leads,
Russell and Ryan, in mind,
or did you just write the characters
and then find them later?
Yeah, much later, yeah.
We wrote the script versions of it,
you know, where it was everything.
At one point, we wrote something
in the present day, back in 2000,
and tried to do it as a TV show,
and they got very upset at CBS about
standards and practices.
That was the kind of one.
No, anything harsh. I mean, there's a scene where, you know,
a little girl says, Dad, Dad, take me
to the party. I stowed away in the trunk
and he just shuts the lid and gives the keys to the valet.
And you think, well, he's not really
going to let her suffocate in the fucking trunk.
But they were freaking out.
There's child abuse! No, he right back in and he opens the trunk and see it doesn't
matter the act of doing we have a did you know our network then they lecture
us our network has values here it's like well okay so you're gonna pitch me your
networks values now okay we knew that there wasn't gonna work so we took it
HBO that didn't where the guy Chris Albrecht was out and finally man
just after 13 years it came together in two days these two big actors said I'll do it if he does it
and that's often how it happens it comes together very quickly and thank God because it's mostly a
thriller and a mystery with comedy and so if we pluck two SNL guys or we tried to get two comedians Okay. No, no.
It's fine.
I'm picturing the reboot with these two guys and I think it could
work. I had no
idea I was even being considered.
And if I have, I've really
dropped the ball. I'm getting my lines together.
I didn't know. It's nice to be thought of.
Thanks. Thanks, Tom.
No, because comedians are great.
And you have a good laugh.
It's fine. It's fine. At the end of the day, Thanks Thanks Tom No because comedians are great and you have a good laugh and then but
It's fine
It's fine
At the end of the day
We're scumbags
It's still cool
You should do some
serious acting
because comedians
often make serious actors
and they're very good
but you can't count on that
so you have to
get some roles first
Yes
Cosby
Great work
Very serious
How many people think
Cosby might be innocent?
And the listeners
were silent as well, I can assure you.
Anyone that thinks he might be innocent
is probably not a fan of my constant
ravings about what a rapist he is.
Oh, is that your thing?
I say it a lot, yeah. I'm no Judd is that your thing? I say it a lot, yeah.
You know Hannibal?
Yeah, I know Judd Apatow, but I say it a lot.
Burris, Hannibal Burris, who broke the story,
is actually in The Nice Guys.
Oh, right.
Yeah, that's right.
He's a comedian.
He plays a giant animated bee.
Really?
Wow, that's racist.
Yeah, I was sitting here
thinking I just saw it today
and I'm pretty high,
but I don't think
he's in that.
He's in Neighbors 2.
Yeah, and he's in
Band of Robbers
on Netflix
and Hannibal's
all over,
all over the place.
We should have got
Hannibal for this thing.
He's doing great. He's been on, he's been on. We should have got Hannibal for this thing. He's doing great.
He's been on.
He's been on.
He's always a fun guest.
I couldn't make it.
That's why you're here.
Yeah, right.
Sure.
Fair enough.
Yeah.
You don't know how far down the list I had to go.
Tompkins was busy.
Motion cashier.
Tompkins is out on tour with Comedy Ba-Bang.
But anyway, it's great to have all you guys here.
And we'll start with... Who is the audience off because i've never done i i'm not like on your show a lot no or at all this is your first
time yeah who are the people here because they seem to like instantly know what to say which
is kind of weird they are uh you know mostly long-time listers, and also many that come to the tapings quite
frequently, and also people visiting Los Angeles, but they all are people that have, bless you,
they have some sort of job that, or no job, that lends itself to hours and hours of listening.
So we've got a lot of truckers in the crowd.
I think I see a couple of nerds.
No, I'll get more to the point.
It's nerds, Shane.
Nerds are the ones that...
And they're proud of it.
We've taken back that word.
This is the Nerd Melt showroom at Meltdown Comics.
What'd you bring for the prize bag, good sir?
They all look at me like, which one of us?
Yeah, well, it feels like we're talking
on the subway.
You know what I mean?
Like you couldn't have made a slanky...
Mount Rushmore came to life.
Shane has a very big bag
of stuff.
I'm not sure what this is,
but I'm gonna guess.
I'm thinking there's
a Nice Guys poster
in that poster roll thingy.
Yeah,
or,
or several,
maybe?
Or Angry Birds,
meaning we just,
we just came up,
fuck it,
let's just let the birds
I can't believe I,
I shouldn't,
I've done an Angry Birds gag
on the weekend
where that movie
was number one.
Let me do a quick watch this not
that i watched the other the nice guys almost called them the other guys uh the nice guys not
angry birds this has been watched this not that did anyone go to see the angry birds
no way number one in the box office i went to the world premiere he was at the world premiere this person
this guy what gives you the balls the first person in the world to see that movie
that's amazing that's up no one else in the world got a chance to see it yet
was there a sleeping bag involved in this please tell me you wrote it.
I don't understand, how did you get the ticket? I don't remember how I got it.
He doesn't remember how he got it.
It's one of those golden ticket Willy Wonka situations.
He's eating a candy bar.
Yes, his grandparents are bedridden.
I don't realize how much the roof of this place
is just like a shitty barn.
There's like loose nails
sticking out of up here.
Well, it was never intended to be used.
They make it look a lot better on the
Meltdown TV show.
They take all that stuff in between seasons.
So what else is in the bag? Oh, yeah
Framed it's some sort of
First vinyl print of soundtrack
3d and extras and everything else it's actually cost like
Oh.
3D and extras and everything else.
It actually costs like, you know,
ten bucks, so.
It's a pricey item, and you brought it,
and it's all in a bag.
And it's in a bag, and this shit, I mean,
after the movie, you know,
bombs this little... Oh, it's doing well.
No, it's fine. It's just the birds, man.
Yeah, you'll give them something
to be angry about.
Yeah.
It's not going to bomb.
You're thinking of Jesse.
But that's what it comes down to, is a great R-rated comedy thriller.
It's a tougher road.
But that movie, everyone that's going to see it is going to love it.
So it'll have a great life
in everybody's hearts
and minds. Boy, man, that's
you just sure to give up halfway through that.
There was
just no saving it. I will
say this much, though, and then I'll shut up,
is that this is
the kind of movie that comes out this time of year
could get lost in the crowd among the
caped fucking, you know, guys with
rays coming out of them and
if you want to... Shane Black, director
of Iron Man 3.
But what I'm saying is
that's your bag, I get it.
You're here. And you like the
striding out of smoke with the lights and the fuck you, I get it. You're here. And you like the striding out of smoke with the
lights and the, fuck you,
I'm gonna...
There's Wonder Woman, she came
with you, that stuff. I don't
like it.
You're apparently enamored of it.
That's okay. See it five times.
I love it. See Captain America five times.
Do it. It's a great movie. I love...
Don't see it six times.
See the nice guys.
And give us a shot.
Give us a shot this summer.
Tell all your friends.
Honestly.
One time out of six times that you go.
I don't think, I don't know anybody that wouldn't like it.
You just gotta, you gotta see it.
Yeah.
All my friends are seeing it now.
I came here.
Yeah, no, that hurt my numbers here tonight I think
I think some people are like let's go see
Nice guys
And you can pass that bag down here
And I'll include it with all the other stuff
And thank you for bringing all of that
Oh it's a Vons bag
Very nice
Yeah so somebody's gonna win that tonight Cause we're gonna play some games here Oh, it's a Vons bag. Very nice.
Yeah, so somebody's going to win that tonight because we're going to play some games here
in a little bit that are
movie trivia related. Do you think of yourself
as a guy who knows movie
trivia?
Yeah.
I have won
various contests in that regard, yes.
Oh, alright.
Mark, we know how you do when you're on the show.
What does that mean?
I assumed not well.
I laughed too early.
No, I just, I didn't mean it as well.
It sounded like a dig.
It wasn't, though.
It's just like he's been on, and he seemed to do all right.
Yeah, I come.
It wasn't great.
It wasn't bad.
Yeah, I go right down the middle.
Yeah.
Yeah, just like sexuality. And't great? It wasn't bad? Yeah, I go right down the middle. Yeah. Yeah, just like sexuality.
And what do you have for the bag?
Well, this is from a film,
Guards of Galaxies,
which I directed.
And yeah, it's a mug
of the little guy.
Yeah, Rock a Raccoon.
Rock that Bradley Cooper played.
Mm-hmm.
There you go.
And you know, it's a nice mug,
and I bought it in the store here just now.
Because I forgot to bring something.
I don't live here, Doug.
No, I love it.
That's a great, perfect gift.
Thank you.
Hey, all right, thanks.
I even beat up the box a little bit,
so it looked, you know, like I had some love for it. Did you actually do that? Oh, yeah. It is beat up the box a little bit, so it looked like I had some love for it.
Did you actually do that?
Oh, yeah.
It is beat up.
I took it in the bathroom and really beat the shit out of it.
Feels more like maybe it was in a bargain bin of some sort.
But that's cool.
Thanks for grabbing it at the last minute
and making an excellent choice.
Jesse, what do you got for the pack?
I got two things.
I don't know which to show
first, so I'll just...
Get it over with. This is a
Chinese bootleg of the
Taylor of Panama, called
the Tay-whore of Panama.
I got this in Shanghai
in 2008.
And somehow I carried it from Shanghai to New York and then New York to here.
I don't know why I would have brought this.
There's a lot of typos all over the back of this.
It's pretty much illegible.
When you say bootleg, was it filmed off of a screen?
I don't know.
I don't believe I've ever seen this.
It probably doesn't work, by the way.
It's very likely that there's no movie on here. Or Chinese pornography. I don't believe I've ever seen this. It probably doesn't work, by the way. It's very likely that there's no movie on here.
Or Chinese pornography.
I don't know what's on here.
But this is the Tehor of Panama.
And then additionally,
this was a sweet gesture from my mom,
but misguided.
Braveheart.
I love Braveheart.
It was like my favorite movie growing up.
I thought you said brain fart.
Brain fart.
I totally heard brain fart as well. second that yeah you know it's an epic film about the scottish brain fart epidemic 13 12 uh anyway so my mom got this she got this for me a long time
it's like an off-brand william wallace like it's definitely not a legit will. It's like an off-brand William Wallace. It's definitely not a legit
William. It's like...
It looks more like fucking
Lethal Weapon Mel Gibson
with a skirt, more or less.
But it still has some kind of tag on it
and the sword's broken.
So this is
some shit I keep moving around from house
to apartment and I don't know. I'm getting rid of it.
It has a certificate of
unauthenticity.
So it's just basically
Scottish guy is really
I think all we're legally allowed to say about that.
It's a sculpture
of a Scottish guy.
He's going in the bag
you guys.
What a tremendous array of
gifts we have for somebody this evening
but before we start the game portion of the show I have one question I like to
ask each of the guests we'll start with Shane black of course other than your
own just you don't have to use the surname that's okay you're right, but I really... It is funny that I...
Shane just doesn't feel right all by itself.
We'll bond later. Go ahead.
Okay.
Sir Shane, my question for you is,
what was the last movie that you saw in a theater or on a device?
The last movie I saw was really, really good,
and it's also kind of hard and harsh.
It was a Danish film called The Hunt with Mads Mikkelsen.
Oh, my God, yeah.
It's amazing.
Yeah, very good film.
Good film. That guy my God, yeah. Yeah, it's amazing. Yeah, very good film. Good film.
That guy's a great actor.
He's great in a comedy that I saw called Men and Chicken.
I've seen the ads, but I never, you really?
He's hilarious in it.
Okay.
And it's a very funny movie.
It's very strange.
Who knows who Mads Mikkelsen is, or Mikkelsen?
Wow.
Best known.
He was the Hannibal TV series.
Or the Sheath
in Casino Royale.
You are good at this.
Alright, here's one for you
and for our audience.
What's an example of a motion
picture made in 1964
that was remade
in 1982 with the same lead actor
in the same lead role.
Oh, it was, what's his name, Paul Newman
in Color of Money and-
No, no, that's a sequel.
This is a remake.
Oh.
What's the year, 64 and?
82.
It's a remake, it's the same movie and the same lead played
it twice as a remake except he There you go. I did it.
Man, oh man.
Holy shit.
You should host a movie game show.
But I think
there might have been people in the audience
that knew the answer but didn't yell it out
because they thought I'd get mad at them.
But he did ask everybody.
So thank you for being polite do you really curry
his favor you're afraid of his anger i don't know if they're afraid of it as much as they just
they get it um because they're yelling you know when they're listening to the show it's they'll
just yell at their device you know while they're listening to the show they'll just yell at their device you know
while they're listening
to it
get the other guy
you go
I can't think
I'm trying to think
of what movie
you can't think
of the last movie
you didn't watch
one on the plane
coming out
no no no
no I didn't
any dates
you got any dates
lately
yeah
no movie
hotel room
he does not
take them out
public
no no no.
Ken Cosby, big hero.
Let's see.
I don't know.
You go.
I'll think.
Okay, Jesse.
All right, it's one of these two.
It was either In the Heart of the Sea, the Moby Dick movie.
You decided to check that out?
I did, and I liked it a lot.
Really?
Genuinely, yeah.
It's one of the greatest.
Pardon the pun.
It was met with a sea of indifference.
Yes, well.
It was such a big movie
and nobody even talked about it being a flop.
Nobody talked about it at all.
I'm like a huge history dork.
I just liked it for the wailing.
I thought it was neat.
I thought there was neat wailing.
Have you ever seen anybody wail?
No? Because neither had I and then now i've seen it you know like i literally there's been
other film versions of moby dick gregory peck yeah but it's shittier it's not as good the
whaling isn't as good you know listen i genuinely like i will totally throw down money if i see
like if it's just like oh like I have a real different barometer for
the same thing with food. I'll just eat a rattlesnake
just to say I did,
but not because I like the taste of rattlesnake.
You know what I mean? Particularly.
I did that a couple weeks ago in Phoenix, but
the point, I'll see a movie
just because there's one thing in the preview
that's like, oh fuck.
Hangover, whichever one the Hangover, Hangover 2 or whatever,
I didn't think that was going to be a good, but there was a monkey smoking cigarettes
in it. And I was like, I've never seen a monkey smoking cigarette. If I came up to you and I was
like, would you pay $15 to see a monkey smoking cigarettes? You fucking totally would. And so
that's what I did. I was like, show me a fucking smoking monkey. And I threw down 15 and it smoked
a lot. And so that's, that was my barometer for how satisfied so like i sat there on demand i was like i've never seen whaling
so i was like all right i'll just fucking watch whaling and i did and it was great
for that reason the other one is the hateful eight i saw that too
no opinion on that one i've never seen a lady lady's head explode in a barn, so I got to see that.
That was neat.
Ah, spoiler!
Whatever,
everybody's head explodes
in every Tarantino movie.
I didn't like it so much.
I didn't care for it.
I didn't care for it.
I was watching
Kingsman Secret Service
in that movie.
Everyone's head blows up.
Oh, that?
That looks like
a fucking LensCrafters
commercial directed
by Jackie Chan.
I didn't see it, but that's
what every preview is like. Yeah, it's fucking
guys in thick glasses kickboxing.
Whatever.
Thick glasses.
The glasses are very prominent
in that movie for some reason.
Yeah, it's the mark of the
Kingsman.
Shitty eyesight?
You're smart looking and a gentleman and also
the glasses have gadgets in them.
Got their earpiece and all that shit.
Oh, okay.
I didn't see it.
I just like the previews.
He's always talking about the previews.
Yeah, yeah.
Because they do get too much in the way.
They do.
Mark, what did you think of something?
Yeah, I remember now.
Geez, I feel like I'm laying down
on seven minutes on whaling.
I got more on whaling. No, I've realized. I feel like I'm letting you down on seven minutes on whaling. I've got more on whaling.
No, I've realized. I saw the nice guys.
Are you fucking...
What?
Yeah.
Just slipped my mind. What an idiot.
No, I'm kidding.
I haven't seen it.
But I remember the movie.
It was Zoolander 2.
Isn't it fun, though, that you could really make everybody think you really did something that dumb?
Like everyone was buying it.
They bought it.
They bought it.
Then you get that second laugh of, I'm kidding, you're a maestro.
Ah, thanks.
Well, they think I'm dumb.
It doesn't take skill to lie. If I say, oh, shit, I just got to call my mother sick, everyone's going to be sad. That doesn't mean I'm kidding, you're a maestro. Ah, thanks. Well, they think I'm dumb. It doesn't take skill to lie.
If I say, oh shit, I just got to call my mother sick,
everyone's going to be sad.
That doesn't mean I'm a genius.
It means I'm an asshole.
Lying, there's no reason not to believe these are nice people.
They think that it's the truth because they're nice.
They're very nice.
Also possibly unemployed.
Very nice. So what's your real answer? Zoolander 2, I saw it in a hotel. also possibly unemployed but um very nice
so what's your real answer?
Zoolander 2
I saw it in a hotel
and it is
brutal
I hate to be a mean guy
what's wrong?
the first one was great
what's wrong?
I love the first one
the second one is just
a whole movie of callbacks
it's just redoing
every joke over
so you go
oh yeah
but it's not actually a movie
you know it's just call back
call mark always points at the screen with his beer can when he goes yeah
that's happening up there look people point during a movie look at that did
you see it I did it I loved it. What? Yeah, yeah. All right.
Wait, what are we talking about?
Zoolander 2.
Oh, I thought we were talking about The Nice Guys.
Oh, yeah.
In theaters now.
Oh, great movie.
Yeah, I do like that a lot.
And I have not seen Zoolander 2, but I'll check it out.
Just watch Zoolander twice and you got it.
All right, then I'm not going to be checking it out
as it turns out.
Yeah.
I'm good.
Yeah, yeah.
But everybody involved
is so talented
and I really love them a lot.
Yeah.
Does anyone have that problem
with Saturday Night Live
that that's the same thing?
It's like they also,
oh, they were so brilliant
back in the day.
You had Roseanne,
Roseanne and Dana
would do the same joke
and then they'd call it back and she'd do it again they'd call it back, and she'd do it again.
They'd call it back, she'd do it again.
The samurai would be like a butcher, then a tailor, then a goldsmith.
Yeah, I completely agree.
They rely so much less on that now.
They don't do, there's no, like, catchphrases that come out of SNL
that they pound into us.
Like, every week they come up with original stuff
that's not as good as other things,
but they don't overdo anything, I don't think.
Shane, do you only have problems
with sketches of people
who died in their 40s?
Is that...
Oh, too soon.
He coincidentally brought up
the only two SNL members
who died tragically.
No, but...
Wait, has that only happened twice?
Oh, well, it's probably way more...
It's way more than two.
Dennis Miller died inside.
That's the first two that he passed.
Oh yeah, Charles Rocket died in a field, right?
That's astonishing.
That was astonishing to hear about.
Because no one ever explained why he did it. Do you know?
Did you fall asleep? What are you doing?
Charles Brockett
did the seemingly impossible thing
of cutting his own throat in the middle of a
field and he was a comedian.
Wow. And no one knows
why, I guess. What a closer.
I mean, you think everything would be perfect and the whole world
would be at your feet
if you're in Earth, Girls, or Easy.
As Geena Davis is...
Yeah, he was also fired for saying fuck on the air.
Yeah, yeah, he was one of, like, three times the fuck
where it's gotten through on SNL.
And Paul Schaefer...
Who didn't cut the throat.
Paul Schaefer and Jenny Slate were the other two.
That's right.
Paul Slate?
Paul Schaefer.
There was a bit where they just kept saying, full flogging beats. I want you to do full flogging beats. Paul Schaefer and Jenny Slate were the other two. That's right. Paul Slate? Paul Schaefer.
There was a bit where they just kept saying,
full flogging beats.
I want you to do full flogging beats.
And then when it was Paul Schaefer's turn,
it's time to say it, he's like, full fucking beats.
It's almost like a game where they tricked him
into saying it.
Yeah, right.
They were really flying close to the sun.
How did they think that was going to go?
It was like season four, you know,
when everything started to,
it was on its way out,
or maybe out,
and then it resurged.
Yeah.
Because the Dana Carvey sketch recently,
when they did that again,
the church lady,
it reminded me of how a church lady
just said the same thing every time.
I couldn't stand it. It was an ass special.
And they don't do that anymore. They don't have sketches where they
just come out and say all the same stuff. Except for the
What Up With That talk show, which is my
favorite sketch they've ever done.
Because it's just so stupid every time.
And everybody just dances around
through most of the sketch, which I find very
amusing. Right, right. Like Fred Armisen
hosted the other night. I'm like, dude, what up with that that because he's there he could be the kenny g kind of guy and
sudeikis was there he could be in his track suit this is doug loves movies not doug loves uh tv
snl the maker of future movie stars um what were the was anybody close to cast to nice guys that wasn't the guys that Russell Crowe and Ryan Gosling?
Did anybody get near it?
Did they say at some point, hey, let's get Mel and Danny back together?
No.
That didn't come up.
At one point there was a TV show they were pitching where it would be Jason Statham and Chai McBride.
But this was like 2006.
I'm not kidding.
I thought I was kidding.
That's not bad.
That's hilarious.
Oh wow.
Sean Penn said
he would do it
in 2010
but he wanted
like 20 million dollars
to do it
which is like
as much as we're
going to make
so we couldn't do that.
No you're going to
clean up.
No we'll clean up.
We'll do fine.
Why was he able to ask for so much? he was he hot off of i am sam he no he just woke it was milk
money yeah it was it was after milk oh there you go milk that was a fun turn of phrase you had there
it was not at all funny but it was like clever yeah we call that a mike caplan
but it was like, hmm, clever.
We called it a Mike Kaplan.
Good, clever.
See, Shane, they get references about other comedians in this crowd.
Like I said, I was doing okay.
That one, phew.
My bad, my bad.
That one was not for him.
I'll keep it down to Iron Man 3.
You'd lose me there, man.
I wasn't paying attention.
I was at the crafty table
Oh we have one of those?
What?
No no no
I thought you got crafty all of a sudden
No no you were in that room
What'd they have like a bowl of candy or something?
I took these from the back fridge
You got a beer yeah
I found a piece of nicotine gum under a chair
It's going alright
Oh that's from Todd Glass I'm under a chair. It's going all right.
Oh, that's from Todd Glass.
You're going to go gay.
No.
For those of you not in the business,
the first thing you do,
you've got to investigate
the green room.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I just take it the next step
and flip over the chairs
and see what's happening.
Real quick, I want to give some love also to Kiss Kiss Bang Bang
Great flick
That was great
And again, two guys that, you know, comedy wasn't necessarily
their thing, they were funny actors
Donnie had just done the shaggy dog
Yeah, oh you're
right i take him back i mean and uh val kilmer is i think one of the best things about that movie
tombstone did you ever see tombstone oh yes holy but yeah and in kiss kiss bang bang he
gives one of his best performances that scene with the russian roulette is hysterical to me
i laugh every time yeah
tell him
I did
I told him already
I told him already
what are all the movies
you've directed
just so we can get it out there
I think I've
touched on most of them
in the game
huh
not in the game
what do you mean
did you touch on them
in the game
no I mean
in this conversation
alright alright
cause that would be unfair
oh I see what you're saying yeah yeah no I would never tip the game? No, I mean in this conversation. All right, all right, because that would be unfair. Oh, I see what you're saying.
Yeah.
Yeah, no, I would never tip the game towards any particular guest.
All right, cool.
I'd have to really admire one guest more than the others to do that.
Their vast body of work.
Yeah.
So you've got to leg up on me because I'm not familiar with any of the movies you guys have directed so are you familiar with Courtney and Ray J that
was my work but speed into the galaxy apparently that was speaking of
comedians doing drama one that really pulled it off, I thought, excellently in one of the films that you wrote
was Taylor Negron in Last Boy Scout.
It was an awesome villain in that movie.
Yeah, that was weird because it was a good idea,
but we ended up having to cut dialogue and this and that
because that was the year of basic instinct.
And they were so mad.
David Geffen even came out in the gay community
that gay people were now being portrayed as villains.
And so they would show up on set in flashlights and honk horns
and stop us from filming because they found out
that Taylor Negrin was playing a character.
I didn't even write him as gay. He just was gay.
But they assumed that there was this vendetta against gay people because two lesbians
kiss who murdered someone in Basic Instinct.
I thought it was a little oversensitive
myself. I agree. Yeah, a little bit
there. But he's still pretty gay in the
movie. Yeah, well, he's dead now, right?
You got away with it. Yeah, he does. Yeah, unfortunately.
But he was a very funny dude. You know, the pizza
delivery guy, speaking of Sean Penn in
Fast Times at Ridgemont High. And he's good in
the Sally Field movie, too.
Yeah, yeah. Punchline.
But then he
you know, he's just
great as Milo in Last
Boy Scout, which is a movie that if it's on cable,
I'm in. I'm not going to get
stuff done for the next couple hours because
I just watch it. I can watch
it endlessly and he's great in it.
And he also dies great in it.
It's one of the better villain deaths as well.
It's just action.
AIDS?
I knew you guys couldn't handle it.
So are you going to...
I didn't think that would go over.
So what's next for you then?
Are you going to walk away from movies with action in them?
Because you've been doing great with that.
No, I mean, the action's great.
It just can't be just action, right?
I mean... Of course.
That's what I complain about,
is the character's got to be interesting.
I don't care if a dinosaur's chasing somebody.
I want to like or be interested in that person
the dinosaur's chasing, or the dinosaur.
Somebody, have a personality.
I would totally pay $15 to see a dinosaur chase a guy.
Just that.
People did. People went nuts for Jurassic World, but, you know, everyone guy just that people did people went nuts for dress world but
you know everyone involved in that movie did something better at some other point in their
career can we get a smoking dinosaur because i would fucking uh all right i remember by the way
last boy scout was like up to that i don't know if if anybody else has a benchmark movie, but that was the most
sort of
aggressive movie I'd seen
at that stage in my life.
Because we didn't have cable at my house.
But you're a young guy. Yeah, well, I'm 37.
So whenever that came out, I was...
So I went over to a friend's house to watch
because he had HBO.
And that was on. And I remember just like, holy fuck.
I'd only ever seen
like network television before
so it was a real
seminal moment
and you have to understand
I'm 50 something
so when we were a kid
I was a kid
HBO started
in 72 or something
74
so before that
there was this thing
the Z channel
and they would just
scramble the signals
so you'd turn on the TV
and you'd just see
these wavy lines
and every once in a while
a tit
right yeah I remember that so you would sit at the tv watching this black and white wavy signal
just like trying to time yourself so that you yeah because yes you have stuff to do
got business to take care of there's probably a ticking clock because family is going to walk into the room.
Yeah.
They didn't leave you at home alone
while they went to France.
I remember when I was a kid,
we had the Playboy channel,
which was similar.
It was scrambled,
but every now and then it would click on
for like eight minutes.
Oh, and it would be a perfect world for a while.
You just have to drop whatever you're doing
and beat off.
The whole family would beat off.
Yeah.
It was wild.
It could be Christmas morning. It's working!
We had a spotter by the TV 24-7.
Yeah, right.
And you'd also push record on the VCR, just in case.
Those were good times.
You'll never experience that.
Seriously, now it sucks.
Kids, you go on your keyboard,
you type adjustable Stillson wrench,
and there's tits.
Right.
I mean, it's just,
it was better when it was tougher.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Accidental, like when you found a box in the woods.
That's what I was going to say, the woods.
Or now a thing will pop up are you 18 yes yeah
click yes every time who's lying there ah you got me fuck it yeah the box in the woods was big
how about uh because where'd you step sister what yeah sorry i stepped right on that what were you
saying so where'd you grow up new orleans that's right i knew that What were you saying? I said, where'd you grow up? New Orleans. That's right, I knew that.
Yeah.
So you had way different woods than I had.
Like, yours had gators in it, probably.
Yeah, we had swamp.
Yeah, right?
But you still had a box of porn.
So did I.
Pennsylvania.
I was born, yeah.
Still was a box of porn in the woods.
Isn't that funny?
It was like a point of pride to, like, give your friend porn.
Like, an older guy would give you porn.
Some kind of Johnny Appleseed meets Jared Fogle
just wandering around America
leaving boxes of pornography for kids.
Right.
God bless that guy, whoever he was.
I felt that might be pretty good
if I just let him keep going.
Sorry.
I know you have a show to do here.
Sorry.
I'm just like looking at my stuff.
This is pretty interesting.
I'm sorry, this is your show.
It's good stuff.
Okay.
I'll do what I do right now.
I'm surprised they didn't have more to say about Jared Fogle.
I mean, I was about to go into it, but Doug seemed annoyed.
What?
Fogle.
What about him?
Fogle. Have you heard about his thing?
It's funny.
There's a line in Deadpool,
a Jared joke,
and it has nothing to do, I don't think,
Great job on Deadpool, by the way.
Mark, no.
Oh, shit.
Sorry, I thought you were sucking his dick again
No
But let me ask you this
Lethal Weapon 2, 3, and 4
If you had to rank them
No, what
4, I'm gonna go 4
Not you, Shane
What do you
You got character credit for the rest of I
didn't want to do any more of them really I wrote a draft of two that was
kind of more of a straight thriller with a couple jokes in it and they said no no
we want to do it we fuck you at the drive-thru they fuck you at the
drive-thru the Joe Pesci character right yeah yeah and so in my script for
instance that character is like in one scene for a minute and then in the movie yeah it's the whole thing so I just said
I you know I was panicking I didn't think I could write I was miserable I
if one hit wonder I thought to myself I've written my last funny line so I
just I just kind of stopped because they didn't want to do it anyway I didn't
want to change the whole script to make it a comedy I didn't think I could I
didn't want to but I didn't think i could and then they became comedies and you know i i
think we could have spared ourselves with weapon three and four without really i don't think the
world would have really uh had a big wake over that you know it would have been okay yeah and
then there it is in the opening credits of each one of those your name like you are yeah but it's
not like i get two million dollars i get like you know a hundred grand or something yeah
silver lining i guess to having your name on the sequels without working on them
but uh what
nothing yeah it's something about a foot long is the joke in deadpool That photo. What? Nothing.
Yeah, something about a foot long is the joke in Deadpool.
I guess you could imagine a child in this scenario if you wanted to, if you wanted to reach for it.
I'm not great at this.
I'm not great at accents.
But if you were ever trying to get into a South African accent, I think there's no better phrase than in Glee the Weapon Two when he's like, I'm having some pinting done.
Pinting, right? The word pinting.
Is that the same guy that goes, diplomatic immunity! Yeah, it's the same guy.
Yeah, that drives me nuts. And I like the guy
in the middle of the movie, because you're
bleak! Yeah, yeah, yeah. Bleak!
It is the fucking dumbest accent.
It's like halfway between
German and Australian. It makes no fucking
sense. I heard this 12-year-old girl on NPR, and she was a little South African. accent it's like halfway between german and australian it makes no sense
i heard this 12 year old girl on npr she was a little south african she was like racing bicycles and that's how she said it she was like talking about a bicycle competition and like she sounded
like hitler she's a cute little girl but it was just she sounded like it just made me sounds like what's what it sounds like when you hitler
sorry go ahead all right this is the part where i have to say let the games begin
shall we play a game
gentlemen the audience members this is where it gets cultier, Shane, I'm afraid.
The audience members have all brought,
they've decorated things,
they've made name tags to try to lure you in to choose them,
because you'd be playing on behalf of the person
whose name tag you most...
I thought you said they had chops.
You most... Oh, no, they do. whose name tag you most you most
Oh no, they do.
They're printing these things out
at their jobs.
Wow.
In the case of those
donuts back there, that's just
he just made a stop on the way here.
I don't know.
Or took them from the break room.
Oh, he'saching for the banana
So all you guys have to go physically grab the
Name tag of the person you'd like to play for
And while you do that we'll go to a brief
Commercial message we'll be right back
Hey everybody
Today's episode is brought to you in part by
Movement Watches
At DLM we team up with brands
That are trying to do something new
We love innovation and companies that are changing the industries they're in.
So when Movement introduced themselves and sent over some watches, we were really impressed.
The one I got is all black, and it's beautiful.
And I'm not even a watch guy, but I cannot wait for somebody to ask me what time it is.
The company started with two broke college kids that wanted to wear a stylus watches but couldn't afford them.
They did some research and found out that big watch brands were passing huge
retail markups to the consumer. MVMT decided that by selling online they were
able to cut out the middleman and provide the best possible price. MVMT
watches started just 95 bucks at a department store. You're looking at
400 to 500 bucks for these babies. Movement has grown organically purely by
supporters like you, so join their more than 1 million social media followers

D-O-U-G
Back to the show!
We're back!
Who are you playing for, Shane? What kind of
poster you got over there?
I got a poster from, uh, it says
Use your microphone voice.
Well, that's what I'm saying.
It's a Die Hard Drew.
I promise to try harder
on my next name tag.
That's pretty good.
Very creative.
Sure is.
And there's this word
compressed, Bruce Willis.
It's like blown up 72 times
or something. It's like blown up 72 times or something.
It's the smallest internet picture ever.
All right, that's effort.
Yeah.
What do you got there, Mark?
Well, the reason I jumped to this one,
it's a middle finger that says super bit me,
which I think is a video game thing, right?
I guess so.
Yeah, yeah.
But it also came with...
Donuts.
Donuts!
Oh, wait.
And he's got something on the back.
No, don't read that.
Oh, jeez.
No!
Thank God you were here, madam.
Wow, did you hear that?
That was a shriek of rape.
Holy hell.
Don't!
What's the most outrageous thing anyone's ever done
to try to get played for in this game?
Oh, there was one lady who had written something on her pussy.
What?
I couldn't even stick with that.
I couldn't even
tell you.
I mean,
there's been
some weird things,
but...
That pussy was good.
It was Garfield's
Tale of Two Kitties.
What do you got there,
Jesse?
Jesse.
I just went with this for the sheer
make-a-wish quality of how
utterly sad
and terrible this is.
This is...
This just fucking...
This guy...
Oh, yeah.
You mean to tell me this guy has
an extra chromosome and not three different markers
i was calling a that's what i did yeah i get where you're going there
he went i am sam on that one i did uh it's really some big balls to go with that one yeah yeah
it's pretty sad that kid was drooling when he wrote that. So, the dude's name is Ryan, right?
I know.
The dude's name is Ryan, and
he wrote a sign that says, Kylo Ryan.
Yeah.
I wrote a sign. I'm giving it
too much of a majestic spin.
Yeah. Just curled
a marker in his orangutan
fist, and just
fucking scrawled out whatever.
And it just happened to be
the name of the animal. I don't know why you have to insult
orangutans.
They're beautiful animals.
I imagine they have the same pen name. They're living with
limitations.
I saw signs of Katrina that were more pretty.
He's from the region.
He can say it.
He can say it. Local humor.
Alright, well we must have offended every possible
person we haven't.
So we should play some games
because it's harder to say
things like that.
Like what? It's been fine.
We're going to play a game tonight.
What happened?
The donuts.
We wanted to try them, but they're the kind that just get,
they're like, you wear them.
Do we have a, would you like these donut gloves?
You eat one of these, you get a money shot.
Do we have a, is there a roll of paper towels backstage?
Or somewhere?
They're working on it
There's a guy in the front row
People brought napkins
Don't throw them
Watch what happens when you throw them
Go ahead
Yeah, that's what happens
If only Fred Willard had those
In the movie theater.
Now, there's a young lady with a box there.
What's in that box?
That's probably more donuts.
Is it better donuts?
It's a thing.
People bring donuts.
She'll let you have her donuts.
You got a nice box.
Oh, now that's a donut.
Yeah, you can touch that one.
Oh, you're just sampling,
taking bites out of a few of them there?
I thought you were the high one.
But it's fun too, Shane.
You can throw your donuts at the audience if you'd like.
No, I'm going to skip that.
Okay.
Mark, give me one of the
glazed ones.
I'll get rid of it fast enough.
Oh, they're really messy.
Oh, this is disgusting.
We call those Peter North donuts.
Oh!
Wow.
Sorry.
Oh, man. Oh, wow. Sorry. Oh, man, oh, man.
Yeah, there you go.
Doug's getting a napkin for those at home.
I got one on the wayward napkin.
You got no job.
You're at a nerd bomb comedy show.
You get hit in the face with a fucking donut.
Thanks.
Oh, sure.
No, I don't want to throw one.
Thank you, though. I don't want to throw one. Thank you, though.
I don't want to not be a team player,
but I just feel like...
Just pick one up and chuck it at somebody.
It makes you feel good.
They're super sticky.
It makes you feel like you're alive.
I don't know.
There you go, Steve.
They like it.
They like it.
They want it.
Oh, these are so wet.
What are you doing Monday night?
Hoping to get a donut in my face?
How else are you going to get sticky glaze all over your face?
She got it.
She caught it.
She caught it.
All right.
Yeah.
She needs a napkin.
Whatever.
Yeah.
Oh.
Just drop it.
The same moment.
It's already holding a donut.
He throws one at her.
Big fast.
No, the gross ceiling ricocheted.
Give her a napkin, will you? There you go. Big fast. No, the gross ceiling ricocheted. You want a napkin,
will you?
There you go.
All right,
this is like what they do
with Jenny Craig,
I assume.
You have to assume.
Yeah, throw away
these evil donuts.
That's how it started
is I just can't,
I can't eat donuts
all the time, you know? Sure. try to keep it together comedians aren't really in
shape but it's still it's like there's there's just a point where it's gets
gross there was one time a long time ago I went into a AA meeting in New York and
I had there was like a first floor and there was like a reception and I go hey where's the meeting and the guys like all right it's
two floors up make it right I did I sat down group of people they're all in a
little circle they're crying or whatever right so I sit down and then this lady
is talking and then halfway through some dude goes hey excuse me why are you here
and I go well that's weird um for the a a meeting and he goes yeah that's what I
thought that's two doors down this AA meeting. And he goes, yeah, that's what I thought.
It's two doors down.
This is the Overeaters Anonymous meeting.
And that's when I looked around, and I was like the only person that was not like 400 pounds.
You know what I mean?
I was like, oh, fuck.
Because I would have brought donuts to that.
You know what I mean?
Hey, everybody, I brought, you know?
Anyway, yeah.
So, oops.
You got a show to do here, right?
Sorry.
We're right on track, man.
It's all coming in right on schedule.
We're going to play a game tonight
that's called the Jason and Debs IMDB game.
Yeah.
Beloved by some.
Too difficult for others, maybe.
I don't know.
Jason dibs.
Jason and Deb are the people
I stole this game from.
They're on the radio in Austin, Texas.
And I played the game with them
on their show.
And I said, I want to do it on my show.
And they said, okay.
And here's how it works, you guys.
The three of you are playing to five points whoever wins the person that you're playing for whose
name tag you chose is gonna win everything all the prizes that we
brought all this all this stuff I keep calling it a prize but it's more like
bags you have to lug around for a while
reasons to set up an eBay account.
You could call it
a lot of things
other than prize bag.
And on IMDB,
you know the site, right?
It says your top four things
that you're,
you know,
whoever you look up,
it'll say best known for.
It'll name four things
and it's based on
a very bizarre metric
which is box office results
and awards
and number of clicks it gets on the website
and all this stuff. And they come up with
the top four, which as you can imagine, for a lot of
people, it's hard to
pick a top four.
You can put your name tag down.
I feel bad that you have to lift the whole poster up
to your mouth every time you take a drink of your beer.
I had an
erection, luckily.
Two birds. So for example erection, luckily. Two birds.
So, for example,
Shane, you don't strike me as the type who stares
at his own IMDb page very much.
No, it's not since
Iron Man 3 and I got death threats for the
fucking Mandarin twist.
Dude, I was scrolling through
IMDb that they are so
mad at you about Iron Man 3.
Wait a minute, they might be in the room.
That's one of the things I loved about Iron Man 3
is there's two great actors in that movie
who both get to essentially play two different characters
because what's his name?
I can't think of his name now, but from Memento.
He plays the
guy Pierce. He plays him
when he's a nerd and then he comes back as a cool guy.
And that's
what I was talking about. You have more
personalities in your superhero movie
than all these other superhero movies.
Watch out! I just stepped on the prize bag.
That cookie
may have been crushed.
What do you think your top four four most known for things are currently on IMDB?
Mine?
Yeah.
There's always a lethal weapon.
Didn't make the top four.
Didn't?
Wow.
I told you, it's a crazy metric they go by.
All right Alright so wait
So I don't get to answer
You just interrupt
And say I'm wrong
Oh
Well this isn't a game
Right this is just for fun
Oh okay
Yeah yeah
Oh okay
I'd say yeah
It's gonna be
It's gonna be
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang
Iron Man 3
Oh shit
Yeah the long kiss goodnight
The last boy's got
Long kiss goodnight I like I like that As a top four But they snuck in Lethal Weapon 2 Oh, shit. Yeah, The Long Kiss Goodnight. The Last Boy's got Long Kiss Goodnight.
I like that as a top four, but they snuck in Lethal Weapon 2.
Oh, and what left?
Instead of Long Kiss Goodnight.
Yeah, well, yeah.
Which is also another terrific.
Do you have a sense of pride in the name Charlie Baltimore being used by a performer like that?
I sort of do
because Biggie Smalls
It's pretty awesome, right?
watched it with his girlfriend
and Biggie,
apparently halfway
through the movie,
goes,
hell, I like this movie.
This is a great movie.
And she said,
yeah, and the name's cool too.
And so they used it.
But just the idea
of Biggie Smalls
before his death
watching The Long Kiss Good Night
and being entertained
by this,
it's just really
brought some joy
into that man's
probably scary existence.
A lot of dead people talk tonight.
Taylor, Negron,
Biggie, the other guy.
Yeah, it's going to come up.
But I think I can
promise you that none of the answers in this game are dead. So the idea here is I'm going to come up. But I think I can promise you that none of the answers in this game are dead.
So the idea here is I'm going to start.
I'll name a project that's in somebody's top four on IMDb.
And you guys can just buzz in by saying your own name when you think you know the right answer.
And once you get to the second title, that's when it'll kind of come together,
that somebody's done, you know,
like if I said Kiss Kiss Bang Bang
and Iron Man 3,
one of the common denominators,
there's two, Robert Downey Jr. and Shane Black.
Drop clues until we buzz in.
Yeah, yeah.
Okay.
But, you know, you want to buzz in
on the first or second one
because the person who gets in first
and gets it right
gets to try to guess the additional movies in that person's top four one bonus point each
yeah and even you get a negative point if you jump in at any point with the
wrong answer these are directors and actors it could be anybody that would be
on the IMDB page but but I keep it to movies but sometimes the answers can be
TV shows okay because if somebody's more famous for a TV show they put that in page but holy shit but i keep it to movies but sometimes the answers can be tv shows
you know okay because if somebody's more famous for a tv show they put that in there
oh so it's like neil patrick harris would be like you know gone girl how about your mother
got it all right there's a lot of rules yeah
well just wait because now everyone has to stand and spin for 30 seconds
Just wait, because now everyone has to stand and spin for 30 seconds.
I want everyone to be as dizzy as I am.
That's how I get the non-smokers.
No, those are all the rules.
Negative point, yeah, and we're playing to five points.
And here we go.
Let's try it.
Oh, boy.
This person, one of their top, number one of the top four best known for according to IMDb is the movie Heat.
The second movie
is Batman Forever.
B.
Falcomer.
That's correct.
That's correct.
So that gives you one point.
And now you have the option to try to get two more points by naming two more Val Kilmer projects that they would list in his top four.
Tombstone and real genius you know they went with top gun and kiss kiss bang bang
come on you gotta believe in yourself shane
um real genius though
That was a
That was a little gem there
Like he started off
In some good comedies
He was in Top Secret
Yeah
Yeah
No he's a very
Very talented guy
MacGruber
He's great
Was he difficult though?
No
Cause he was
He was kind of on his ass
At that point
Not a lot of
You know he had no career
At that point
And he needed something.
He needed to come back down.
He was the same way.
So there's always, no matter how difficult their reputation,
when they have to step up, they kind of get themselves together,
and they say, this is it.
It's kind of do-or-die time.
So, yeah, they were great.
It's a reputation I get to acquire without ever having to pay for it.
Having worked with, quote, difficult actors.
They weren't difficult.
That's awesome.
Because, yeah, I mean, you really,
you have worked with some people
that are known to be a handful.
Let's do another round.
Shane's on the board with one point,
and Mark and jesse are
in the wings you've only done one i know really probably a silly time for a recap
jesse and mark are in time for last yeah in the wings is a nice way to say losing
but it's barely started. Here we go.
Here's the next round.
The first movie, Braveheart.
Second film is called Signs.
Mark Norman.
Oh, Mark got in there first with his own name.
Mel Gibson seems...
And what do you think it is?
What do you mean?
Mark, it's your guess. I said the thing first. I said Mel Gibson seems... And what do you think it is? What do you mean? Mark, it's your guess.
I said the thing first.
I said Mel Gibson.
No, he said Mark before...
You've got to say your name.
You've got to say your own name.
And you also said the answer after Mark had already said Mark.
So you were...
Right, but he was wrong.
Mark Norman wasn't in either of those things.
I was correct.
I technically got...
I was cut out.
It was your own name.
You're misunderstanding how the game works.
He said me.
Yeah, but I understood who he meant.
I know, I know.
In this case, I don't think he's Mel Gibson.
I think he's guessing.
I do.
Did you not know the real answer?
Did you not hear my earlier point about AA meetings?
And Mark gets to guess.
I said Mel.
Who? What? Full name?
Gibson. Yes, that's correct.
That's too easy, man.
That felt too easy. It felt like
a trap. Yeah, the trap. I was waiting
for like James Newton Howard, the composer, or something.
We got it. Yeah, don't wait
for that. Don't wait for that at all.
James Newton Howard
bus is not stopping here. I feel like you can streamline this process just have
somebody shout out the thing when they know it no because the problem is is
that you know people can multiply shout out different answers and this is it
works all right yeah I'm not telling you how to do it that's fine he knows what he's doing Joyce
yeah I you know I come down and Jesse writes for M&I and I come down there and works. All right, yeah, I'm not telling you how to do your dad. Don't worry about it. It's fine. He knows what he's doing, Joyce.
You know,
I come down,
Jesse writes for at midnight,
I come down there
and tell him all
the time,
you gotta get
him to give out
kudos instead
of points.
And they just
don't listen to
me either.
All right,
here we go.
Two more
Mel Gibson
movies for
bonus points,
Mark Norman.
Shit.
You have to be
on IMDb,
though.
Right.
Yeah.
Mark Norman.
Shit.
It doesn't have to be on IMDb, though.
Right.
Yeah.
Two more.
I'm going to go with... Melly G.
Mel G.
Big Mel.
And the ones you said are not.
These are different.
What?
Never mind.
All right.
So far, we've got Braveheart and Signs.
Just name two more movies that Mel Gibson's in.
In the four on IMDb.
Yeah, but just name two that you know.
It seems like a real struggle.
I know a lot.
Oh, okay.
You know too many.
I know too many.
Yeah.
I'm going to say Lethal Whip and What women want.
That means it's wrong.
Lethal Weps was right,
so you get a point for that,
but they did not go with what women want.
They went with what women really want,
which is the Patriot.
What?
Yeah, I don't know what that's about.
Wait a minute, to Shane direct that no that sucked that's America's Braveheart yeah this is like six degrees of Kevin Bacon, but very easy.
I'm waiting for the hard one.
Hit me, man.
He wants the hard one, you guys.
Quick recap, I'm losing.
No, no, you're in the wings.
But don't forget, your name's Jesse, not Mill.
Got you.
The callbacks are flying.
It's like Zoolander 2.
Which was a callback.
The first title is The Sixth Sense.
The second one, it's kind of
a speed game.
As soon as I say the second one,
say your own name.
Die Hard.
Mark Norman!
Who was first? It was Mark, right?
Jesse?
I think it was Mark.
I appreciate it.
After the age joke, I thought I lost you guys.
Yeah, Mark was the loudest.
Good point.
I said it first.
He was good.
All right.
Well, you know,
big Bruce Will.
Mm-hmm.
If only he'd said
Young Lions,
then you could go with
you have to remember
Hallie Joel Osment
to get it correct.
Right, right, right.
Who looks terrible now?
Have you seen him?
Actually, he's a good guy.
He's a friend of Max Landis, who I know.
They've both been great guests on this show, Mark.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah, they were terrific.
The floor's shaking for all the name dropping.
That's the great thing with Haley Joel Osment.
You get an extra name to drop when you're dropping it.
You should have seen the floor shake when that fatso stepped up here.
He has put on some weight.
You get to name two more, and if you get them both right, you win this thing.
You take it down.
You said, just so I don't use those again.
The Sixth Sense and Die Hard.
All right.
You just have to come up with two more.
Bruce Willis.
Put yourself in IMDb's metric.
All right.
I'm going to say The Fifth Element.
And?
And Sin City.
One of the...
Why does the audience know this?
These are the people who are voting.
Oh.
No, you were correct with the fifth element.
That was a really good poll.
Oh, thank you.
Thank you.
Yeah, and then you went wrong on Sin City because they went with Armageddon. Oh, thank you. Thank you. Yeah, but you went wrong on Sin City
because they went with Armageddon.
Oh, that's my bad.
I should have gotten that.
That's a dumb mainstream pile of shit.
All right.
No, you've got to get on the meteor
and then blow it up, Mark.
It makes perfect sense.
You're right.
You're right.
And then there's so many twists that happen.
They're like, oh shit, we gotta get off this thing.
And then a little while later,
they're like, we better get out of here.
Right.
20 years ago, I think that came out this summer.
Oh my God.
People are still eating animal crackers.
I'm on my second bottle of Tabasco.
Right?
You guys in AA together?
Alright, it's time for, this one is tougher I think. I think we've got a tough one.
Here we go.
Mark has four, Shane has one.
Wings.
Less said about the third person, the better.
Jesse Joyce is like a maxi pad.
Wings.
All right, all right.
I don't even get it.
They have wings.
He's in the wings.
Oh, he's still in the wings.
Is it a maxi?
Did I say that wrong?
All right.
Thank you.
Just give us one that's not like Aviator and Wolf of Wall Street.
Right.
Just give us a, yeah.
Who would be in those two?
Here we go.
Could be Scorsese.
In Living color.
What? TV? Yes, it happened.
Deal with it.
May, may, may, Jim Carrey.
Deal with it. Denver, yeah.
Jim Carrey.
Whoa.
Ballsy guess.
Shane, you're back to zero points.
Oh, shit.
Damn.
Here's the next title for the other two players.
You're out this round, but I have a feeling you'll be back.
Oh, boy.
Because the first two movies and the next one are the ones you just said a minute ago.
Because the first two movies, the next one are the ones you just said a minute ago.
No, in this round, it goes in Living Color, then Major Payne.
Mark Norman.
Who is it, Mark?
Damon Wayans.
That's correct.
And that brings you all the way to five points.
So you are a winner.
You did it.
Who on the panel?
Jesse, show off your skills.
What other Damon Wayans movies do you think they named in the top four?
Last Boy Scout?
That's not it.
Nope.
Didn't make his top four.
I mean, when you hear what did,
you're going to be like, I get it.
Mo Money?
Scary Movie? What? I don't know. It's all, it's whatever. make his top four i mean when you hear what did you're gonna be like i get it mo money scary movie
what i don't know it's all this whatever i don't know how many of them are blank man is on there
i don't i mean that's what i was joking around about is that blank man ranks over somehow over
last boy scout that's kind of funny oh we got a blank man fan
all right let's have him ejected from the room
fan all right let's have him ejected from the room i don't mind blank man i guess his character major pain is actually a pretty funny character yeah i don't mind that one and then they put in his
for the fourth one they put in his tv uh his other tv show my wife and kids my wife
so that got in there but let's so. So Mark's officially our winner,
but do you guys want to do a couple more just for fun?
Is this the only game you brought?
This is it. You won, man.
But that's it?
You did it.
You usually have so many more games.
Well, how many games can we have?
You know, we've got a time situation.
It's a ticking clock.
Okay, sorry.
You were so impressed with this couple in Texas doing this
that you brought it all the way to Los Angeles.
Yes, I lifted it myself.
Got it through airport security.
And brought it to Los Angeles.
How did you fit all these movies in your carry-on?
But what about that game?
You liked it so much.
That game you have where you go down the line with the letters.
Yeah, he likes ABCD's nuts,
because all you got to do is name a movie that begins with a letter.
That's a killer game.
I thought this would be like a group who would like a more challenging experience.
We could play the telephone game, but we'll use the microphone,
so it wouldn't work as well.
Right.
I'm fine with this.
My only gripe is this name switcheroo thing,
because I'm so busy.
I don't know if anybody else ever is having this brain problem,
but I'm so focused on, oh, it's Bruce Willis,
that I then have to go, I have to take a minute and go,
what's my name?
And then, you know what I'm saying?
I have to fight the impulse to take a minute and go what's my name and then you know what i'm saying like i have to fight the impulse to just shout bruce willis i've known like all of these up to the
but i just can't say my own name in between i can't i can't throw that on top of this
you'd be the guy who would lose jeopardy because he didn't say yeah what is exactly that's a
dumb rule what is it you're like on a stupid rule because you're like on a permanent
satellite delay like you're being
interviewed on CNN
and you're in another room
in the same building
but there's still that delay.
Resisting impulses.
There's a tradition
in these sorts of games
like doing this
instead of pointing.
You have to resist
the point.
Although,
is that what?
Yeah.
Right.
Yeah, fuck.
That's how these things work, Jesse.
But you do great on
At Midnight
when you're on there
and that's
Yeah, because there's a buzzer.
Right, but there's a technique to that.
Yeah, but I don't have to fucking think of it.
Can I just do this?
Instead of having to say
not Bruce Willis, Jesse.
Let's do a round to see if that changes how you play.
Where you get to slap your leg.
Okay, I got it.
Mark says Mark and Shane says me.
And I say Shane.
I'm going to play along even though I know the answer.
You'll see.
I got a movie game too
if you need another game.
Oh, that sounds fun.
No, it's a pretty good game.
You can bring it to other cities in your carry-on.
Well, at least...
I think we'd at least like to hear about it,
but I don't know if we'll have time to play.
All right, all right.
Because I don't know how complicated your game is.
It's pretty simple.
Okay, all right.
It's probably so simple,
I've already rejected it from lots of other people.
Because people suggest games all the time.
It's a classic at parties.
But there's a punchline here.
It's not even a game.
He's waiting.
You're just setting up a punchline,
and he won't let you give it. Oh, no, it's a real game.. But there's a punchline here. It's not even a game. He's waiting. You're just setting up a punchline, and he won't let you give it.
Oh, no, it's a real game.
I was being dead serious, but I appreciate that.
Look how calm I am.
Look at this.
Look how fucking calm.
I'm ready to, I'm like Carlos the Jackal.
There's that joke in Blazing Saddles
where he goes, are you calm?
And he goes, look at that.
And then he goes, but I shoot with this hand.
That's fun for the podcast listeners.
Alright, here we go.
That's a great joke.
The first movie.
Schindler's List.
Me.
Here goes me. What the fuck? I mean, I get nothing.
What do you think it is? I think it's Liam Neeson.
No. No.
Mark Norman!
I still beat your hand!
You slow alcoholic.
I'm gonna say...
I'm still gonna say it, though.
No, wait, I said it first!
I just want to prove that I got the thing. I just can't... I'm not fast I'm still gonna say it though No wait I said it first Jesus I just wanna prove
that I got the thing
I just can't
I'm not fast enough
to fucking
throw a thing out
but I got
I have the answer
I know what it is
You'd be a terrible
gunslinger
I sure would
actually
now that you
Alright but I'll let you
have the name
Go ahead and say
what the answer is
It's Ray Fiennes
No
Alright let me try now Okay Ben Kingsley That's correct Come on Go ahead and say what the answer is. It's Ray Fiennes. No. Ah!
All right, let me try now.
Okay.
Ben Kingsley?
That's correct.
Ah!
All right.
Ben Kingsley.
I like this game.
Well, it's just funny that, you know,
I'm sure Shane's picked up on it.
That's part of why he was complaining about how easy this game is,
is that I'm just using people that we've already
discussed pretty heavily
this evening. But you guys
are doing great. I'll say Gandhi for his top.
Let's do one more. Gandhi for his picks.
One more person that we've discussed on the show
already this evening.
The first movie.
Goodfellas.
There he is.
Jesse Zins. Joe P Jesse's in That's correct
They fuck you
They fuck you with a hand slap
My favorite
One that I wrote down
But we're not gonna do it
Is
For Robert Downey Jr.
His IMDB is
The Avengers is number one
And then
Iron Man
Iron Man 3
Iron Man 2.
In that order? In that order.
He's not happy about
that, I'm sure. No, I bet you he doesn't
like that, but it changes too.
They switch things around, so by the time
people listen to this, they'll look it up and go,
didn't say what you said it said, and then
I go like this to my computer.
He seems like a cool guy.
Downey?
Downey, yeah, he is.
Actually, he's very funny.
He elevates the material, man.
He takes something and just runs.
And if you're diligent enough to just keep up with him,
then you get a great movie out of it.
That's really all there is to say.
No, but I mean, he deserves an award
and something for that role in Tropic Thunder.
Yes.
Thunder, sorry.
He's nominated for Best Supporting Actor.
Is he nominated?
He was for that movie.
You know, the movie was a few years back.
I know, but the Oscars nominated him?
Yeah, they did nominate him.
Oh, glad I got recognized,
because that was unreal.
Yeah, no, he's quite good in that.
Yeah. And he's very good in most things that he's in even when he was fucked up for a while He still you know pulled it together, but I'm glad it worked out for him. I'm glad he's doing what he's doing
Yeah, I don't know him at all
But he was my smoking buddy during the Oscars in 2012 because I wrote for them and I was stuck backstage
And they just let you smoke wherever the fuck you want backstage you know smoke yeah so see you smoke next to
him like I'm going over his lines you just won't smoke in his face well no we
just had the same we had that we had the exact same sort of nicotine moment
trigger like where it's like I need a cigarette and then they're gonna say you
both found gum under a chair yeah that's it that's not interesting it's like, oh, I need a cigarette. And then he would... I thought you were going to say you both found gum under a chair.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's it. That's not interesting.
This is my only...
I love those stories.
But we're out of time.
Fuck.
Because we have to find out about Mark's game idea.
Ah, I think you're going to like it.
I don't think I will.
Well, you're in it.
You've got to play.
Okay.
Let's hear what it is.
It's an old drinking game.
Oh, no.
So we'll go down the line.
You say a movie.
Right.
Then you say an actor in that movie.
Yes, it's been submitted hundreds of times.
All right.
All right.
And they play it on my friend Jimmy Pardo's show, Never Not Funny.
So I guess I could call it Jimmy Pardo's and then give it a new name and then play it.
But it is a fun game, but it also, you know, it's kind of easy.
Well, hey, did you see the first round of this?
There was a buzzer issue that was the problem here.
You don't need a buzzer.
But with any given movie, you should be able to name one person that was
in it. True, but you get kind of
crazy. One movie that that person was in.
You start throwing out crazy shit. Oh, yeah.
Temptation of Christ. Somebody brings up Shawshank
Redemption, I'm going to say
Harry Whitmore.
Everyone will be fucked because I don't even
think that's that guy's name. James. James Whitmore.
James Whitmore. I'm going to say
James Whitmore.
And then when it comes back to me, it won't come back to me. I think that's that guy's name. James. James Whitmore. James Whitmore. I'm going to say James Whitmore. Yeah.
And then when it comes back to me, it won't come back to me, though.
But the next thing to say after James Whitmore is give him Hill Harry, because that's a movie
where he was nominated for an Oscar, and it was a one-man show of him being Harry Truman.
So if it's a one-man show, how do you continue the game?
Aha.
That's what I'm saying.
You would throw a block down and everyone would have to go home.
There was one that we used to do in college, I don't know if this is
a bit like, where it's the
Kevin Bacon game, but like
Ratchet, it's like a sort of all-star
version of it where you think of a guy
and I think of a guy and then at the same
time we say the name of the guy and then you have to
connect those two, right? You understand what I mean by that so go
ahead let's sleep just for just for the fuck of it think of it you got a guy
yeah I got a guy all right say your guy we're gonna say our guy right okay ready
go okay got four same time John Candy yeah okay so there now you have to
connect Forrest Whitaker and John Candy, right? Like through the Kevin Bacon game rule, right?
Like if this person was in that with this guy.
But we both just start puzzling it.
Whoever can puzzle it together.
Yeah, you just quietly stare at each other.
It's terrible for radio.
Yeah, I think so.
Because what if one of us needs three titles to connect them
and the other one only needs two?
No, it's just whoever gets there first.
Whoever's the first person to, yeah. Okay, who'd you say i said forrest whitaker i said john candy okay
well of course they were they were co-stars and no no they weren't
another 48 hours i was so excited to maybe get them into something together because that would have been great.
I didn't mean for you to actually sit here and work this out now.
I thought we had to try it.
Do you have it? Do you already have an answer?
I don't have it right now.
I can get you halfway there.
Okay, so
Forrest Whitaker was in The Crying Game with Stephen Ray.
Stephen Ray was in Speechless with Geena Davis
and Michael Keaton. Michael Keaton was in some kinding Game with Stephen Ray. Stephen Ray was in Speechless with Geena Davis and Michael Keaton.
Michael Keaton was in some kind of comedy that's going to bring you to John Candy.
Oh, you're right.
He's getting us there.
Michael Keaton and John Candy together?
I don't think that's happened.
I can't think of one.
You can get them all in the same boat that way.
You said Geena Davis?
It's a good way to get this.
Was she in Mr. Mom?
No, he was Uncle Buck.
Sort of the same movie.
He was in Mr. Mom.
I feel like you get out of...
It's a real fun game to listen to.
No, look, you get out of John Candy
through Macaulay Culkin,
and then from there, he in home alone he was with tim
curry and tim curry's been in a bunch of right that's the way out right yeah that could be a
way to do it so much fucking rocky picture with susan sarandon who was in the delman louise with
uh davis who with gina davis and then we go back that. Or have I just looped back around to the original thing? Oh, yeah. No, that did it.
All right, all right.
I got a game that is quick and easy.
Quick and easy game.
We can knock it out in four seconds.
But I'm going to need the audience's help.
Oh, no.
No, no, no, no, no.
Just one nerd.
I need one Asian.
It's got to be Asian.
Are you Asian?
Aha!
All right. All right. I think this is gonna get us
I'm gonna throw out a number
and then an actor
and you have to name
a bunch of movies
that actor's in to get up to that number
and whoever gets the most wins
I do not understand
but let's try it.
I'll say 25,
and then I'll say an actor's name,
and you just keep shouting them out.
Everybody keeps shouting out. You can't repeat,
but you keep shouting out until we get to 25, and whoever has the
most... But what does this
have to do with the Asian gentleman? He's gonna keep
track. Oh.
Real quick, Jesse, what did you do with your name tag? I put it back here.
Oh, can I have it, please? Thanks.
Yeah, there you go. Oh, great.
It's stuck to the...
That's gross.
Does it have a thing on the back?
Okay.
Cool.
He changed his mind.
All right, let's start the game.
You're actually going to do this?
Wait, we're doing it?
I thought we were going to do it.
All right, all right.
We're going to have a counter.
It's going to take four seconds.
We've got somebody to count.
It's a joke.
Mark just wrote a racist joke and then worked's a joke. It's a punchline.
Mark just wrote a racist joke and then worked backwards from there.
That's all this is.
We don't actually have to play the game.
He's got pen and pad.
Look at that.
He's Asian.
All right.
Here we go.
You really got to be on this because we're going to just start fucking.
I'll be the mediator.
You guys play.
I still don't understand what we're doing.
No.
You can't keep track of three. Somebody's got to count. I'll get to 25're doing no you can't keep track
of three
somebody's got to count
till
I'll get to 25
but you've got to keep track
of who gets
you know like
so right
right Doug
oh only of the three of us
like everybody's not playing
oh okay
no no no no
this changes every
five fucking minutes
no no no
I'm going to say 25
and then
I'll do this
so I'll tell you
when we get to 25
but you've got to keep track of their movies they're naming like how many so tally it up baby who's going to say 25, and then I'll do this. So I'll tell you when we get to 25,
but you've got to keep track of the movies they're naming,
like how many.
So tally it up, baby.
Why are we naming movies?
What?
What movies are we naming?
I'm going to give you an actor, and you keep... That's like a game we play on this show already.
We take turns saying the movies by one actor.
But this is a speed round.
Okay.
What's your name?
Lawrence.
All right, we'll do it fast.
I hope it was more Asian.
Is this how you want to go out?
All right, Lawrence, you ready?
Spaghetti?
All right.
So, I'm going to go 25.
Tom Hanks, go!
Oh, shit, splash.
So that's one for Doug.
Oh, Saving Private Ryan, big.

Bonfire of the Vanities.
Only movies.
Bosom Buddies the movie.
Bachelor Party.

Extremely loud and incredibly close.
Nice.

There you go.
Sorry, I went into the wrong bar.
I think Shane fell asleep.
Yeah.
How many more do we need to do?
Tom Hanks is in no Shane Black movies.
Two more, two more.
Oh, fuck.
Oh, oh, oh, The Lady Killers.
Nice.
And not the audience, because I could do this.
The Terminal. Captain Phillips. Nice. Oh, what? Close it out. Goatee. What's the last one? Nice! And not the audience, because I could do this, the terminal.
Captain Phillips.
Nice!
Close it out, go team.
Captain Phillips.
Captain Phillips.
What do you got there, Laurie?
Who won?
I got 16 out of the 25.
Pretty good, great, keep it track!
Now that was a game!
Alright, we'll call that the Mark Norman game.
And we'll play it only when Mark is on.
Because we need someone to conduct it and wave his hands around and yell at Asian people.
It's like finding a werewolf.
Yeah, it's got to be when Mark Norman is on and an Asian is present.
Well, in his defense, he nailed it.
He really did.
Wait, in his defense?
Why are you defending him for being Asian?
He needs to be defended for that.
Well, it's not racist of his actor.
Lest you think he didn't conform to the stereotype.
He conformed is what I'm saying, yes.
Oh, we did it, you guys. So now we've gone long.
Now we've gone over the time.
Oh, sorry, sorry.
It was so much fun, we had to do it.
I can't implore you enough to see the nice guys.
Yes.
Shane Black.
Was this all right for you?
Did you have a good time?
Yeah, I love comedians.
I used to live with comedians.
I love listening to these guys.
They're funny.
Which ones did you live with?
Ed Seuss.
Ed Seuss. Ed Seuss. Ed Seuss. Ed Seuss. Ed Seuss. Did you have a good time? Yeah, I love comedians.
I used to live with comedians.
I love listening to these guys.
They're funny.
Which ones did you live with?
Ed Solomon.
Do you remember Ed?
Yeah, he sort of became more of a writer, right?
Yeah, but he used to write for Gary Shandling.
Shandling would come over all the time, yeah.
Another dead guy.
Oh, Dave Couillet.
Dave Couillet was a roommate of yours?
Not a roommate, but he was a friend of ours.
He'd be around a lot.
We had a fucking busy apartment, all right?
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
You're not on trial.
This is all in the...
This is back in the...
I'm so fucking old.
This was back when the Make Me Laugh was on television.
Oh, yeah.
Remember that?
Wow.
The Mark Cohen version?
Earlier.
I'm just kidding.
I mean, there was a Mark Cohen version,
but you're talking like Bobby Van was the host.
Yeah, I'm talking Bobby Van.
I'm talking like Bruce Babyman Baum.
Right.
He'd come out in his diaper,
and the person would lose their shit.
Appropriately.
And you can tell by the resounding silence
that these are largely young people here.
No, you're definitely winning the old person contest.
They know Coulier.
You fucking know Coulier.
Everybody in the air knows.
Cut it out.
Yeah.
But thank you, Shane, for doing this.
I really appreciate it.
Is there something else in the works,
like a next thing you're doing?
I know there's a new Predator
that you're going to be involved in.
That's kind of the new thing, yeah.
It's a reimagining for 2018 of the Predator.
Bigger budget, better cast.
No, not better, but, you know.
Interesting characters.
The first one was just a bunch of actors getting eaten.
No, we just had to go play this time.
What?
Yeah, hopefully they're interested.
I don't know.
It's a good little challenge, and it's not one I take lightly,
because otherwise, why make another fucking Predator movie, you know?
Exactly. Exactly.
Exactly.
That's the person in charge of each sequel
that gets to, they do too many of
that one should step in and go
there shouldn't be these unless it's like this.
Yes. Unless we do it this way.
Add Danny Glover. Mark
watch him on Conan
tonight and
what else is going on?
Do you do Vancouver yet?
That's this weekend.
Here we go.
Vancouver, you guys.
I know you're looking at me now going, we're not in Vancouver, Doug.
But for the listeners in the Vancouver area, please go check him out.
Thank you.
Especially if you're Asian, because he'll probably put you to work.
A lot of
Yes.
They need a railroad.
A lot of Asians in Vancouver.
So many.
Yeah.
It's really quite a lot
actually.
So Jesse what do you got?
And Mark Norman

dot com.
Mark Norman

Yeah.
Okay.
Thank you.
I'll be showing up
here and there

I'm just east of there.
Oh okay.
Canada in June.
And then Minneapolis later
in the month. At Acme?
No, the House of Comedy.
The Mall of America one. Acme's having an
issue with it might get closed because of
somebody's building something where their parking
lot is and then if there's no parking
it can't be open. So there's like
if you look for it on the internet, if you
like comedy and stand-up comics,
try to sign the petition to keep
those guys from developing around it.
It's Acme Comedy in Minneapolis, where I'll
be next month.
So go to douglosmovies.com
for all my dates. One more time
for all of my guests. What a terrific
fun show
with Jesse Joyce, Mark Norman, and
Shane Black.
And as always,
whoever is currently unpopular is a shithead.
And Kylo Ryan, what he used,
it's genius What he used to make his Kylo Ryan poster
On the other side is his shithead
