Doug hates candy wrappers screening baby sticky seeds
With 50 acid pop or kernels in his teeth
There's still not one that he won't see
Because Doug loves movies
Alright, so let's try it one more time
Oh boy, so much fun
I love doing this show on the road
Because you never know what's going to happen.
The listeners won't hear it,
but there was a lot of controversy
about a table.
The NFL is assembling a panel
to determine whether or not
the table was a bad thing.
I should just look at this piece of paper.
It's got everything I need to say on it.
I was freestyling there for a second.
It felt pretty good.
My name is Doug, and I love movies.
This is Doug Loves Movies!
That was much better than the clapping.
The clapping...
The clapping needs some work,
but you guys, you got pipes.
You can totally sing.
We're coming to you once again from the Firebird in St. Louis, Missouri.
Yeah!
At 420-ish, of course, in the year 2015 on January 24-hour party people.
Let me see your name tags, St. Louis.
Oh, boy.
Oh, wow.
All right, during name tag selection,
I should make a vine of this one because this is really a delightful batch of name tags.
You guys did a great job.
I can't help but really be stunned, though,
by the giant, glaring Morgan Freeman.
It's your name.
Wow.
I thought we were going to suddenly hear from Morgan Freeman
with that microphone pop.
What is that?
It's just a big Morgan Freeman.
But if you hold it in your lap,
it looks like Morgan Freeman's sitting in your lap.
And that's sort of what you were doing.
Yeah.
What does he want for Christmas?
That is so weird.
Did you bring that so that it would seem like
a black person came to my show?
It was very awkward last night.
We started talking on stage about how there were no black people
at my stand-up show here in St. Louis,
which is not to say a bad thing about white people or black people.
It was just a statistical fact.
All right!
How do you like it so far?
How's the crossover working for you?
Well, thank you for being here
and being proud, too.
So, I don't know what point I was trying to make.
Morgan Freeman.
Good job.
Your name's Morgan?
John.
John, okay.
People really stretch the definition of a name tag
when they come to my show.
Morgan Free John.
Morgan Free John, okay.
That didn't help at all.
Why did you do that to me?
If you haven't yet, please check out Doug Loves Minis
where I tell you about all the movies
I'm seeing this year as part of the
365 movies in 365 days.
Doug Loves Movies Challenge.
Is anyone here taking the challenge?
Really?
What number are you up to?
19. You're doing better than me.
Ma'am?
27. Good job. 20. Very good. It's doing better than me. Ma'am? 27. Good job.
20. Very good.
So it's still not too late.
It'll be harder for you
if you jump in now, but
365 movies by the end of the year.
Preferably movies you've never seen before, but some people
like to count ones they've seen already,
but I'm just trying to see 365
new movies,
and I'm at number 16.
That's where I'm at.
San Francisco, February 7th and 8th,
I'm doing Benson Movie Interruptions
of the final, hopefully final two,
Twilight movies
at the beautiful Castro Theater.
It's a gigantic theater,
and it's the first three movies
we did there over the years,
and it's super fun.
sfsketchfest.com for
tickets. And that's another thing. If you listen to
Doug Lozmini's, I'm going to start doing
exclusive reveals of scheduled
guests on these shows
and also on some future
ones. I know I don't like to give away who's
going to be on the shows. I like surprises
but I also like
letting people know when it's something exciting
if I can.
Did I say sfsketchfest.com for tickets?
Traverse City, Michigan, I'll be doing a movie interruption,
a Douglas Movies and a stand-up show,
co-headlining with Todd Berry, February 13th and 14th
at the Traverse City Comedy Festival, douglasmovies.com
for all my dates and deets and stuff. Oh, from
the corrections department, people are saying
Lyle Alzado wasn't on
Saved by the Bell the college years.
But
the corrections department turns out doesn't give a
shit.
Because Doug does not love TV. I mean,
I do like it quite a bit, actually.
But it comes from
my love of movies that are just now, I watch them on TV sometimes.
Let's look in the prize bag, you guys.
It's like, I gotta say, it's not a bad prize bag.
Oh, I forgot to get prizes from a couple of the guests,
so we'll see if they bring them up here when they come up.
I brought, all the way from Los Angeles,
in my luggage, I'm surprised security didn't think I was up to something,
a game called Schmovie.
I think it's from a company called Galactic Sneeze,
and it's for ages 13 and up,
three or more players.
It even says on the box,
which I didn't know they did this on the game boxes now,
35 minutes.
So you got to chisel out 35 minutes
in your party schedule
when you invite people over to play this game.
What would you call a horror film about an evil booger?
I don't know.
So we had a good one?
Blown Off?
Oh, The Blob.
Flubber? Now you're just naming other movies.
I don't even
want to continue this. A romantic comedy
about a clumsy proctologist?
Oh,
no.
Oh,
that should be called
Number one a-hole
But anyway
It's a fun game
I'm guessing
I don't really play games
Other than on my show
But that's in the prize bag
A copy of Schmovie
Also
This is kind of fun
I did a podcast
That's going to come out soon
Called Food is the New Rock. And it's a food
podcast where they don't really eat like they do on my food podcast. I just talk to people about
food, usually rock musicians. And they gave me a box of candy I don't want. Because I quit sugar,
so they gave me sugar-free candy. But I think that's still sort of defeating the purpose.
sugar, so they gave me sugar-free candy,
but I think that's still sort of defeating the purpose. So I wrote
on it from the Food is
the New Rock podcast,
and then I signed it.
So, yeah, so that's, you know,
that'll be, try to give that to your
loved one on Valentine's Day
and be like, I don't know what all that writing's about.
Actually, it's on the outer case, so you could
actually just take that off and just go, here's your fucking
peanut brittle.
Happy, you know.
I guess a lot of couples are here with each other already tonight.
So forget all of that.
There's some coffee that I brought from my hotel room.
There's a book in here.
We'll get into why that book is in here in a second.
And then also, always parked outside of my shows here at the Firebird
is the nice folks
at Gorilla Street Food Truck.
And yeah,
delicious Filipino food.
And I recommend
the Flying Pig.
And they have a logo
and it says St. Louis.
It's a really classy shirt
because it doesn't say
their hard to spell name
anywhere on it.
Yeah.
And I look forward
to them opening up
a restaurant you can walk
into instead of stand on the outside of. I hear that could happen soon. Also, I put in
two lighters because I have to go to Canada in a few weeks and you can only have one lighter.
So I'm trying to get rid of all the lighters in my bag.
And then maybe a couple
other things. Let's give a big warm welcome
to, this is an interesting coincidence, all
three of these gentlemen have been
guests on my program, Getting Doug with High
out in Los Angeles, and they
all happen to be here today.
So please give a big warm welcome
to Jacob Seroff, Jeff Tate,
and Shoot jennings What's that, Shooter?
Use your microphone voice.
This is Shooter Jennings, everybody.
How y'all doing?
We have vinyl we can give, put in the bag.
Oh, all right.
We're going to put one of your vinyls in the bag.
That's awesome.
Yeah.
And you just started a new tour.
This is like city number three?
City number three, yeah.
Starting going all the way through at least August,
I think we have stuff booked with the Waymores Outlaws,
which is my dad, Waylon Jennings' old band,
and they're playing with me.
It's a really cool thing.
That's awesome.
Second year.
That's my plan, is to go check
out your show here in town tonight.
The Mystical Magical Magician, what's it called?
It's called the Mad Magician.
The Mad Magician.
Yeah, yeah.
Is there a craziest rock club
name that you could think of?
I love that, though. I just hope it's purple
inside.
Oh, yeah.
It's got to look like, you know,
Johnny Depp's first...
His dreams.
Yeah, his first dreams, yes.
Before he had a nightmare on Elm Street.
But you're a big movie buff.
I know you, like,
travel around doing music all the time,
and you're, of course,
in the motion picture Walk the Line.
Oh, yeah.
Playing your dad.
How was that?
Was that weird?
Is Joaquin Phoenix a weirdo?
Man, I love Joaquin Phoenix.
But, like, did he walk around acting like Johnny Cash all the time?
Was that his deal?
No, not with me.
No, no, no.
Oh, that's cool.
He would immediately turn the minute we left the set,
and, I mean, the first day I was there,
it was in the rain in Memphis and he was
like you want to go hang out and I was like okay
and I got in his car with him
and he proceeded to like drive so fast
and run all the red lights he's completely
sober he's just slammed all
the way to this like apartment that he
had that had a pool table and a big
thing inside and we just hung out and he
was cool as shit you know what I mean
so that movie though is my
favorite that i'm still here i love that one oh that he made yeah the one with casey affleck i
never saw it because it was you never saw so much was made of like is it real isn't it real oh it
was a big hoax and i was like what i don't you know it's like finding out blair witch isn't real
you know it completely ruins it you know you want to go in thinking it's some real
shit going on but i'll check it out now you're saying that you love it is that like your tour
bus favorite it is one of my favorites to watch anytime it's on i'll watch it or i'll if i can
put it on you know because it's just to me i it's an awesome art piece of insanity yeah i love the
expression every time it's on i've never noticed it being on anywhere.
I think you've got to kind of
seek it out. I mean, the
movie itself is like, I'm not here.
Don't even come around.
But who else is here? Appearing
with me on stage last night
at the Firebird to a
very receptive crowd.
One of the most polite crowds
I've played to in a while.
Jacob Searoff is here, everybody.
I was going to mention the black girl,
and she stepped on my joke.
She ruined it, but
she's black the whole time.
That's her problem.
She was already black before you could say it.
Pretty rude.
Yeah, but that's funny that you zoned in on it.
Because last night we were both on stage going,
that's really interesting.
There's no black people here.
But you brought for the prize bag a book called The Chosen.
It's a signed copy of The Chosen.
Signed by me.
Yeah, yeah.
An actual Jew.
Where did you sign it?
Oh, there it is.
On the title page.
Jacob Serov, actual Jew.
Okay.
And the O's in your name are both...
Stars of David, yeah.
To drive home the point.
The Jew thing.
In case it wasn't clear.
Very good. And I think, is this only your second
Douglas movies? It's the third.
I have a long storied
history with it. I did it on the Weezer cruise.
Oh, yes. And I fucking tanked it. Of course.
I was horrible. I had no voice. I was just getting back
in the weed after like a two year break.
It was bad in every way.
Blame it on the weed. First of all, we were on a
family cruise ship
that does not even allow that
sort of thing. We had to go
through customs.
Well.
And then we did it in Kansas City in June
and I thought it had a pretty solid showing.
That was a very fun show,
but that was a lost episode.
Yeah.
So take three, my shot at redemption.
Yeah, so this is...
Well, I say this one is hit it or quit it,
because...
Words that I live by.
It's been really rough.
But, you know,
I thought you did fine on the Weezer cruise.
It wasn't bad.
I was a little starstruck, too,
because I'm such a Weezer nerd.
I think that was an issue for me.
Yeah, that's why I invited you along.
But I don't care about these guys at all.
Oh, okay.
Jeff Tate is here
performing
all weekend long,
all night strong
at the
Funny Bone
here in St. Louis.
At the Westport Plaza Funny Bone.
If you want to go tonight, tomorrow,
or Monday, just go up there and say
cheers, and you get in for free.
That's all
you gotta do? Yep. Tomorrow night
too? Tomorrow night too. Monday night also.
Tonight, you should be busy already.
But Sunday or Monday, come on, there's a lot of empty seats. night too? Tomorrow night too. Monday night also. Tonight you should be busy already. But
Sunday or Monday,
come on, there's a lot of empty seats.
It's only
40 minutes from here.
It's in the back
of a mall that has nothing else in it.
Walk past six
empty closed down restaurants
and there's a comedy club
back there
and just say cheers
to anyone you see.
The mall kind of looks
like a castle
where its inhabitants'
dreams came true
and they left.
They went and got
a better castle.
I also have things for the prize bag I have a book that I read
What is it?
It's called Ready Player One
You guys all know that book?
I can't believe that got a bigger reaction
Than The Chosen
Anti-Semites
This book does not even mention
Jewish people
So you guys should love it
And I got both my albums
And just for people listening that want to purchase one or both
They're called I Got Potential and Just Another Clown
Do you have the third title picked out
yet? No. I'm thinking
about calling the next one
Packing It In.
So it'll be like
a trilogy. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I Had Potential will be
the fourth one and it's all outtakes
from the first three.
It's all me melting down going,
why are you talking?
And the time I cried,
because the guy was like,
don't make fun of me,
my dad died yesterday.
Right?
Why would you say that at a comedy club?
And then you think I'm going to be like,
ha ha, fuck you,
but instead I'm like,
you were like, yeah, that's you. But instead I'm like, uh.
You were like, uh.
Yeah, that's what I did until the clock ran out.
And I was like, well, that's 45 minutes.
They never tell you how you have to do 45.
They just tell you that you have to do 45.
I choose to spend about 10 of it crying.
It's an emotional rollercoaster.
Coming to your show.
Zombie castle town.
Take advantage of that, you guys.
This podcast might be
out tomorrow, so maybe
some St. Louisians
that aren't here
might hear it and still come down and say cheers.
Open?
It's available to them as well.
Everyone here can tell everyone they know
to say cheers? I think it'd be hilarious
if they were overrun.
Yeah, that'd be great.
Occupy Funny Bone.
I don't think it'd be...
Everybody come in with cheers signs,
chanting.
Oh man, that would be great.
All right, well, a few people will show up.
And you'll have a good time.
Jeff's shows are always fun, and we had fun last night.
Shooter's going to have fun tonight.
Thank you, St. Louis, for having us.
Yes, absolutely.
Thank you, St. Louis, for having us.
Yes, absolutely.
What have you been doing movie-wise lately, Jacob?
I know you got kids.
Have you seen anything?
I see movies more than I see my kids, actually.
It's just divorce.
It's not because I'm an asshole or something.
It's like you can't... They go to school where she lives.
Everything's fine.
We get along.
Yeah, I've seen a bunch of movies. I saw Big Eyes
recently. I saw something else.
I went to go see... Oh, it's American Sniper.
I didn't say list the movies you've seen. Let's talk about one.
American Sniper. Saw that.
How was that for you? I thought it was really great.
Made me want to shoot brown people. You guys would love it.
Boo. I should have listened to the whole list before and then picked which one I wanted to talk about.
What were the other ones you said you saw?
Big Eyes.
Yeah, yeah.
Talk as much shit you want about Big Eyes.
Maybe one of Abuse Women.
You could say Big Eyes is the biggest pile of garbage ever made.
No one's going to go, you're un-American.
Or you're racist.
Like, neither one of those things will happen if you hate Big Eyes. go, you're un-American. Or you're racist. Neither one of those things happen if you hate big eyes.
I guess you could be sexist,
but I don't know.
I wouldn't even think women would be
kind of bummed out by how beaten down
the woman was in that movie.
Yeah, but she wins in the end.
Does she? Yeah, she found Jehovah.
That's like the guy that spends 70 years
in prison for a murder he didn't commit.
Well, at least he got out.
Yeah, but she got to live in mansions while she was, you know.
She did what?
She got to live in mansions and have a pretty decent life.
Oh, boy.
I don't know.
You know living in a mansion won't bring you happiness.
I can't wait to find out.
You should pull an Eddie Murphy in Beverly Hills Cop 2 or 1, whichever one he stole that mansion
for a little while.
2. Yeah, part 2.
Yeah, Jeff knows.
Jeff knows all the Beverly Hills Cop movies.
Do you even like part 3?
I don't like it.
I thought it was really funny, actually.
There you go.
John Landis directed it, which is a weird piece of trivia.
Yeah, he came back. It's not a weird piece of trivia
he's directed the movie
he hadn't directed any of the other movies
yeah they only made one without him
Jeff
what's his name
that was Tony Scott
did the second one
my favorite part in the second one
is that the bad guy
Juergen Proch now, he was from Das Boot,
and he shows up in Beverly Hills Cop 2, and at one point when he's giving orders about what they want him to do to Axel Foley,
he goes, I want you to get him and burn him and blow him away.
And it's just like, what?
You're going to burn him and blow him away?
What kind of instructions are those?
Or is that even what you're saying?
Between him and Brigitte Nielsen,
it's just very, very weird-ass
villainry in that movie.
Jeff, have you seen anything lately?
Yeah, I saw
Black Hat yesterday.
No, no, no, no, no.
You're wearing a black hat today.
I wore this.
I thought it'd give me...
I feel like this is an Alzheimer's test we're doing.
I saw it.
But you did not like that.
I didn't love it.
It wasn't...
It was okay.
Isn't that...
What's his name, director?
Michael Mann?
Yeah.
Michael Mann directed it,
and you think it's going to be really stylish and slick and...
It's not?
...violent, and It's violent, but
not the other two. It shows a lot
of the insides of computers.
In the beginning
of the movie, they're crawling around in computers for like
ten minutes with no explanation why.
It's not like it's a credit sequence.
It's just like endless crawling
around like they had to add ten
minutes to the movie or something.
And, you know, I don't mind movie or something. And, you know,
I don't mind Thor.
He's alright, you know, but I don't know
about, you know, Computer Hacker.
Probably the least realistic Computer Hacker
since Angelina Jolie in Hackers.
No, what about
Anthony Anderson in Transformers?
Oh, dude, you could
name anybody who's played a hacker in a movie
and they've all been...
It's just a shitty part.
The only realistic one was Kevin Smith
in the fourth Die Hard movie.
It was just a big fat fuck.
Gross and computer smart.
What did you just guess?
I said Fisher Stevens.
Isn't that his name?
Which movie?
He was also in Hackers.
He was flying around digitizing himself and shit. Yeah. Isn't that his name? Fisher? But which movie? Oh, he was also in Hackers.
He was like going inside the computers, flying around, like digitizing himself and shit.
Yeah.
I didn't buy any of it then or now.
Well, I like that part in Black Hat because the thing that's kept me from understanding computers is what do the insides look like?
Where does all this information go?
What is the highway?
I want to see it.
And Michael Mann, finally,
someone broke it down for me.
It's all these wires and circuits.
It's pretty wild, guys.
What is that event that's happening
at the end of the movie,
the climax of the movie,
like with all those people?
Where are they and what is that event?
They're in Jakarta.
They're at some sort of
big march around festival.
There's a bunch of people in matching
outfits, marching.
And then there's the villains and the good guy
running around amongst them, shooting at each
other. It is the weirdest.
Oh, I thought I was coming to see a
computer hacker thriller.
And now it's just a fucking...
The weirdest climb...
A shootout during a parade, I mean...
But it's not a parade.
It's like some sort of ceremony or something.
I couldn't tell what the fuck was going on.
Shooting in brown people sounds like American Sniper.
Oh, damn it.
Oh, wait, now I know where...
This guy seems to be in a rut of some sort.
You should watch the last 10 minutes of Black Hat.
The crowd last night hasn't heard
20, 25 minutes of straight-up racial humor
like last night, probably in their entire lives.
I think this area needs it right now.
Okay.
That's one way to look at it.
Especially from a big city Jew like myself.
BCJ.
Shooter, have you been to the movies lately?
What last movie?
Baba Duke was one of the last movies I saw.
Oh, everybody says that's scary.
It was good.
The ending was a little off for me,
but I thought it was good.
I thought it was handled well.
Where'd they wrap it up?
Jakarta?
Yeah.
How many brown people got shot?
None.
Good answer.
What format did you watch that in?
I watched that at home, though.
I mean, the last movie I saw in the theater
was Interstellar, I think. Oh, okay.
Yeah, you gotta see that in a theater.
Yeah, it was cool, man. That's really
the only reason to see it.
I like that movie. Big screen and loud and
high as shit.
Yeah, I saw the interview too. I started
a really scary movie the other night and I can't
remember the fucking name of it, but it's about this
old lady, it's a mom, a grandmother,
and they think she's... Oh, August Osage County.
No, no.
No, no.
Yes!
No.
I'm pretty good at this.
They think she has Alzheimer's,
and she's really possessed, and it's weird, though. And at one point, she swallows this dude's head, and it's and she's really possessed.
And it's weird, though.
And at one point,
she swallows this dude's head
and it's like very strange.
It's one of the most frightening scenes
I've ever seen in my life.
But I can't remember
the name of the fucking movie.
Yeah, nobody wants
their head swallowed.
Yeah, no.
Awesome.
That sounds awful.
I'm always looking
to get scared, though.
All right.
Well, if anybody thinks
of the name of it,
tweet it at me.
Don't yell it out. We don't want to get in the habit of yelling. Tweet it at me. Don't yell it out.
We don't want to get
in the habit
of yelling things out.
Maybe,
I think that's why
I'll never like
Big Eyes
is because Amy Adams
is in that.
And I've been scarred
by the words
Amy Adams.
Shooter,
that's an inside thing
between me
and everybody
that laughed.
Did you like the interview?
What is he talking about?
Well, I saw the interview
with the crowd before the movie
before it was
pulled from theaters. It was going
to have a release. We knew that
the hacking stuff had happened
but we didn't know that it was going to get yanked
and it was a full crowd
and we roared I laughed through was going to get yanked. And it was a full crowd, and we roared.
I laughed through the entire movie.
I loved it.
Yeah, I thought it was really fun.
And to me, that's one of the saddest parts of the whole affair,
is that, you know, but sure, they still made money
because they showed it on demand and stuff
and on all those other outlets.
But too many people just watched it on their computer, on their lap.
I think most people that say it's garbage
either didn't see it or watched it by themselves
and didn't get into the spirit of it.
Because James Franco's character could be really irritating
if you're not in the right...
You know what I mean?
If you already don't like him.
I loved it, though, man.
I think he's really funny in it, but it's really over the top.
But I also like that it's making fun of Access Hollywood and shit like that,
where he might as well be playing like Billy Bush, you know?
And that guy really irritates me.
I watched that movie this morning, the interview, yeah.
By yourself?
Yeah.
And did you enjoy it?
Yeah.
It's good.
It's funny.
Yeah.
But can you imagine with a crowd, like certain scenes,
the way they do the build-up?
When Katy Perry's
firework plays,
everybody goes crazy.
It's really a great
cinematic moment.
It's funny. I think it's a good movie.
I put it under This Is The End,
but those guys... It's funny to me,
a lot of people go, oh, the interview's so stupid.
Nobody said that about This Is The End, and This Is this is the end to me the humor is pretty similar you
know it's it's just they're in it i love that one too i i kind of i i'll tell you that i thought i
was more entertained from top to bottom on the interview than i was like this is the end build
up was funny and stuff but like kevin hart falling in the hole and everything is kind of like you
know there's a moment there where i was kind of like, okay, until Michael Cera shows back up.
You know what I mean?
And then the movie gets really awesome after that.
He is the funniest character in that.
Yeah, yeah.
He's like, what, his phone?
Somebody's got his phone.
He's like, I gave you so much Coke.
And then he gets impaled by the thing.
That's pretty good.
You've watched that scene a lot, I feel.
I feel like you've seen that one a few times. The Capri Sun thing is fucking hilarious.
Yeah.
I love his character in that fucking movie.
Do you have any dogs in the hunt for the Academy Award?
Do you care about that at all?
I don't keep up with it.
I don't have much faith that those things are actually
not just people being emailed over and over and over for lots of money
to vote on stuff a lot of times.
Yeah, I'm sure a lot of people vote
without having seen things. I just did an Oscar
prediction show and I haven't seen
a handful of the movies.
That didn't stop me.
That's how you do it.
I haven't encountered a guy, it's a Grammy
thing where you pay, this guy gets
paid 50 grand, because
he used to be part of the committee and has the email addresses of all the people who
are the voters.
So they like bombard them the entire year for like 50 grand for you.
Well also LA is an bombardment now, a bombardment, because there's like billboards
and radio ads and TV ads that are just playing in LA for these movies.
Right, while people are in town.
A few weeks ago, there were tons of ads for Grand Budapest Hotel, and the movie came out last
March or something.
I'm glad they did it, because it worked.
It got lots of nominations. I think it's
a great movie.
What about you, Jeff? Do you care about any of it?
No.
The movies I like
Don't ever get nominated
For stuff
Two Guns
Snubbed
Jack Reacher
Snubbed
Just a constant
Shit stream of
My favorite stuff
Getting tossed aside
But Wahlberg and Denzel
Have both been in
Action movies that have
Been recognized
By the Academy
It's not impossible.
The Departed and what you call it?
Training Day.
That's true.
Moving on.
Boyhood was good.
Back to Black Hat.
So you like Boyhood?
I did.
Boyhood, I thought when I was watching it,
I was worried about watching it.
It took me a long time to settle down and do it.
And then once I did, I was kind of bored by it.
But then I can't stop thinking about it.
You don't have kids, though, right?
No, but I just still got a lot of it tied into that.
It's just really interesting how random all of it is, though.
Yeah, but I thought it was awesome that you get to see the guy's life
so much that when you see things that happen towards the end of the movie,
you react with him because you know what he's been through,
like with the drunk guy who was the stepdad.
Right, but a lot of times situations heat up,
and then he walks in, and it's a year later.
It's like life.
It's like pieces of life.
It's like if you were somebody that only visited that kid
for a few days every year,
and then that's all you know about him
is those times you were around him.
That's a good way. But I liked it. I did like it.
Yeah, I think it's going to win Best Picture.
It's just so sad to watch Patricia Arquette get unhot.
Oh, man.
Yes, because that's the exact...
12 years is the exact period in time
in which every woman completely loses it.
She was already fairly old
when they started. She wasn't like
a teenager or anything.
I didn't think she changed much
at all. I was kind of impressed by it.
She gained some weight.
I could see you
just weighing the movie every
ten minutes. Just put the whole
TV on a scale.
I just liked how Ethan Hawke, at the very end,
they still had to put like a,
I'm an older man mustache on him,
because he's just going to be boyish for his entire fucking life.
He's never really going to be pulling off like,
I'm the oldest person here.
I liked him in it, though.
Yeah, no, the acting, that's part of what kept me,
I mean, I was going to sit through the whole thing no matter what,
but the acting's very natural and very good.
Especially the kids, as they get older,
they stay great actors instead of becoming like,
ugh.
They took a real chance.
Either of those kids could have...
One of them's his daughter,
but they could have grown up ugly as shit.
They start so young.
Who knows what would happen to them? Or like Jacob's problem, they could have grown up ugly as shit. They start so young. Who knows what would happen to them?
Or like Jacob's problem,
they could have gotten super fat.
That would really be...
That would be a totally different movie.
Kid goes off to fat camp.
The second half is heavyweights.
I think a heavyweights reboot or remake should happen.
That movie is seriously underrated.
I like that one a lot.
All right, well, I guess I should move on to the next portion of the show,
the game portion of the show.
I'm a little reticent just because Shooter's not really a listener to the podcast.
I've just become a listener to the podcast. I've just become a listener.
He just started
a couple hours ago.
Probably didn't have enough time to get through an entire
episode, so we're going to hold his hand
and walk him through it, and
I'm going to say, let the games
begin!
Shooter Jennings, you will be my disciple.
I will hold your hand in the shadows.
Does Bane ever laugh?
I don't remember him ever laughing at anything.
What you're doing is amusing me.
Um, alright, so... Uh, everybody brought some lovely name tags,
and, uh, look at those things.
Morgan Freeman doesn't make any sense.
But it does raise the black count in the room to two.
And, uh, go ahead and pick who you'd like to play for, you guys.
Go ahead and go grab the name tag you'd like to play for.
There will be Brian.
Did you paint that?
Bring it back to your seat.
Who did?
It's an oil painting?
All right.
That's awesome.
Nice.
That's chalk.
That's dope. That's dope.
Somebody's yelling for you over there, Jeff.
Oh.
Is this what I'm supposed to do?
Yeah, you just bring it back to your seat.
Let me see, is there a shithead on the back?
Nope, okay, we're good.
So you don't have to worry about that part.
What do you got there, Jeff?
I don't know. I fucked up
again.
Jeff seems to be having second thoughts about
his name tag choice.
What did you pick?
I picked Copeland.
It's a Copeland poster, but he put
Copeland on it, and I assume that's his name.
Why did you pick it?
I don't know. It seemed like he knew me.
And then I saw
I pointed at him before I saw
the one that has my fucking face on it.
God damn it.
Do you want to
play for both?
Sure.
If you win, they just have to divide up the prize bag
like gentlemen.
What if he was just like, no, I'm fine?
Well, that's why I asked. You never know.
But I just know
I don't want Jeff to feel bad.
So now he's got the one with his face on it.
And that's not even...
There's other ones in the audience with your face on it.
There's even a cheers one
hold on all right so you guys you got to stop it too so who who's this one this one is jen and tom
they put manos the hands of tate on it and instead of hands of fate i like it and our faces are on
there that's that is a nice one you really blew it with that cock land thing i did i did
but uh i have many regrets.
You're playing for both of them now and they'll have to flip a coin
over who gets the schmovie.
Who are you playing for, Jacob?
There will be Brian. Just for the artistic
quality. That's a very nice
oil, but it's chalk.
Painting of an oil well.
It's chalk and I already fucked it up.
I smeared it because I thought it was oil. It's like oil, but it's chalk. Like a painting of an oil well. It's chalk, and I already fucked it up. I smeared it because I thought it was oil.
It's pastels?
Why did they smear when I touched it?
Did you just paint it like 15 minutes ago?
Yeah, it was probably a rush job.
Very nice use of a negative space, though.
Am I supposed to read the thing on the back?
No, that's for at the end if you lose.
I know.
So...
Shooter, who are you playing for? the back? They did it great. No, that's for at the end if you lose. I know.
Shooter, who are you playing for?
I fucking love this thing.
Fight Corey. It says Fight Corey and it's the Fight Club artwork
but with the two Corys on it.
License to drive, Lost Boy
and Soap.
I thought it was a kid from fucking
Home Improvement at first.
That's what caught my eye.
It looks like it.
That's why you picked it?
You remember the
shithead middle one?
No, you picked
Corey Feldman,
Corey Haynes.
Yeah, I know that.
I saw that one.
I got closer.
Glasses are real
most of the time.
Oh, you double checked
after you thought
it was the Home Improvement
kid.
Then I saw what it was
and I was like,
I'm going for that.
No, it's the Corey's.
No, it's awesome.
Yes, yes, exactly.
Your exact reaction.
My exact reaction to a tee.
All right, well,
that is a beautiful item there.
Well done, well done.
And congratulations, Corey,
for being picked.
Shooter's going to play for you.
Good luck to everybody.
We're going to play a few games.
You can just put that down.
I think it's...
The way it's curved,
I think you can even set it down
and people can still see it.
Yeah, there you go.
Look at that.
The job, Corey. I should be in set design.
What I did earlier with the table was amazing.
All right, we're going to let you go third
in this first game, Shooter,
so you can catch up and figure out
what the hell is happening.
We'll start down there with you, Jacob.
We're going to play How Much Did This Shit Make?
Yeah.
J-Lo.
She has this new film out.
Looks like it's doing alright.
The Boy Next Door, which I cannot wait
to do a movie interruption of.
Sight Unseen, because it just looks
absolutely crazy.
Made me think back, though,
to a film that took a lot of heat
and was
considered by many to be one of the biggest flops
of all time, starring J-Lo
and her then beau, Ben Affleck,
before he went
into being an insurance duck.
It's called Geely.
How much money did
Geely make in its
entire North American
domestic
box office run
according to boxofficemojo.com
without going over
in millions?
I'm going to say six million.
Jacob says 6 million.
Interesting.
What do you think, Jeff?
I think I made 25 million.
Okay.
Shooter.
4 million.
Jacob is our winner.
It made $6 million.
Wow.
Holy shit.
Are you some sort of Geely expert or something?
No, just a regular Jew.
I know the numbers and the money.
I'm going to lose when it comes to the trivia element.
Do you get like weekly emails?
Just regarding the entertainment industry in general?
No, just regarding Judaism.
That felt a little low to me,
but I didn't realize
it was such a failure.
It made like 3 million or 4 million
of that its first weekend and then was just done
like fast.
Did Kevin Smith direct that or was that the other one?
Jersey Girl? He did Jersey Girl.
Who directed it? He was directed by the great Martin Brest.
Oh, who did Beverly Hills Cop 1?
Yeah, and Beverly Hills Cop.. And Beverly Hills Cop, yeah.
You don't have to jump in like we're having a competition.
No, it was a Beverly Hills Cop conversation.
I'm not Chris Hardwick.
I don't just throw out points.
He also, though, against him, he did Meet Joe Black.
That was a little long.
Scent of a woman.
A lot of Brad Pitt eating peanut butter.
You weren't mad at it, though?
I wasn't too mad at it.
I enjoyed it.
But I was also like 18 when that movie came out,
or 17 or something.
Yeah, and people didn't dislike it.
It was a little long.
He started with Sending a Woman and that.
He started making pretty long movies,
and then Gigli came along,
and any of it was too long.
The guy that plays, the guy that keeps getting kidnapped in the hangover movies
he's uh in Gili you know you always hear about Ben Affleck and and her but like people haven't
even seen Gili like applaud if you haven't seen Gili ever I mean did you know it was about a
romantic that it's a romantic comedy
about a couple who the third character
is I don't know if he's a brother of one of them
or something but the third character
is just retarded
mentally handicapped
and it's a capable actor playing
Chow?
Chow's playing him?
No no no, no.
We're way past hangover.
I'm just saying it's the guy who plays the kidnapped guy in the hangover.
Oh, I thought you said the kidnapper.
He's also in the National Treasure movies.
I was imagining Chow.
Yeah, yeah.
This is stoners describing things to stoners.
Sorry.
The guy with the Morgan Freeman name tag is not only going to the bathroom
but he left Morgan
Morgan looks like you cannot
don't you fucking dare try to sit in this seat
that is quite
he's looking right at me like
just move along son
too funny
alright so
Jacob's our winner on that game
let's play another All right, so Jacob's our winner on that game.
Let's play another.
This is a game that we like to call ABCD's Nuts.
Because it's a spelling game.
Like I said, we'll start with Jacob, and then we'll go to Jeff, and then we'll come back to you, Shooter.
And we're going to spell something.
Each letter of this thing we're going to spell,
all you have to do when it gets to you,
when it gets to your letter,
and whatever your letter is,
you have to name any movie that begins with that letter.
Sounds easy, but it's strangely hard.
And if you match the movie that I wrote down on the piece of paper ahead of time,
then you win the game automatically.
We're going to start with Jacob,
and we're spelling, to keep the theme going,
Jennifer Lopez.
I'd spell J-Lo, but the game would be over too quickly.
So Jennifer, J-E-N-N-I-F-E-R, Lopez.
First letter to
you, Jacob.
J for Jacob.
Any movie that begins with the letter J.
J is also for John Carter.
Let's try to match it up.
Now, I think the proper title is Disney's John Carter.
No, I'll accept John Carter.
That is correct.
But I went with, and it was scarily close,
Johnson Family Vacation.
Because it was set partially in Missouri.
Yeah.
The letter E, Jeff?
Extract.
Uh-huh.
Mike Judge.
Yes.
Yeah.
I like that movie.
I went with Escape from New York
because it was shot partially in St. Yes. Yeah, I like that movie. I went with Escape from New York because it was shot partially in St. Louis.
Yeah, that comes up top five
if you Google movie shot in St. Louis.
It's really one that everybody's very proud of.
Because Snake Plissken was here
for a period of time
walking around going
where's the bathroom
I think that's probably
where Christian Bale
got his Batman voice from
was Snake Plissken
now that I think about it
alright the letter N
shooter
any movie that begins
with N
Nightcrawler
yeah you like that movie?
I haven't seen it. I want to.
Dying to see it.
I'm sorry. This game is movies you've only seen.
Oh, I see.
Nightcrawler qualifies.
I went with National Lampoon's
Vacation.
Because it was shot partially in St. Louis.
The Arch!
Oh, God.
Back to you, Jacob.
Another N.
Another N-word.
Watch it.
No more you.
I'm going to go with...
I told you this wasn't easy N
Wow
The guy in the audience just went
Today
That's crazy because I had
I thought you were playing
and I already had my eye ready.
Doesn't that suck when that happens?
Yeah, that actually did.
I'm going to go with Nighthawks.
You really thought I was going to look down
and name a movie and try to match what I had written down?
No, I just thought you'd play.
Everything you do with...
What did you say?
Nighthawks.
Yeah, okay.
Good job.
I went with New York Stories,
not shot in St. Louis.
Douglas Movies is going to be
at the Gramercy Theater
on March 8th in New York City
at 4.20. The 8 o'clock show
sold out, so we added a 4.20.
Okay, I
is actually Jeff's letter.
I love you, man.
No, seriously.
We can talk about that later.
Just answer.
Just pick any movie.
I went with Identity Thief
because it was set partially in St. Louis.
Yeah.
They're proud of it.
I don't know why.
I guess you're glad Tammy wasn't,
didn't take place here.
It wasn't as well received.
I've seen neither.
But I want to.
I like that lady.
Shooter, do you got an F?
Fletch.
Yes.
You could also go Fletch lives.
I went with Firehouse Dog
because I just saw it
as part of my
365 movie
challenge
yeah
sat through the whole thing
E
for Jacob
Everyone Says I Love You
again
I need a title of a film
I went with
Ernest Scared Stupid.
Because it's set in Missouri.
I don't know, are all the Ernest movies set here?
He just came here
to get stupid, get scared stupid.
R is the
next letter
for Jeff.
Roger and me.
Mm-hmm.
I went with Roadhouse.
Yeah.
That's set in Missouri, supposedly.
Isn't that in a made-up town, though?
But where was it really shot?
Do you know?
That's what I thought.
L.
I mean, I don't know what was done
in Missouri
hey try not to worry about
that it's random
it's just we gotta have a psychic
connection you just you never know
what my reason is for picking a movie
like if there was a W in Jennifer Lopez
the block the line would have been in there for sure
then that would have been fun if you said
some other movie
you'd be like water for elephants
laughter

never seen this but apparently there's a movie called living in missouri
fuck you yeah pretty sure it's set in somewhere in missouri maybe that might just be more like a
state of mind thing you you know, like.
Is that why you said it was okay to look at my phone?
No, no.
I wanted you to be able to look at your phone just in case you need to be in touch with anybody regarding your gig tonight and stuff.
Oh, Jacob.
Oh, brother, where are they?
Mm-hmm.
I went with one night at McCool's.
Set in St. Louis.
P for G.
Pretty Woman.
Mm-hmm.
Which is a movie I'm going to be interrupting with you,
I believe, at the Traverse City Comedy Festival.
So thanks for that plug.
I went with Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. Yeah!
Lambert International Airport
featured heavily in the film.
E is the next letter
for shooter.
Any movie that begins with E?
E?
We even allow you to say
the previous E that already happened.
Yeah, that was extract, I know.
Are you going with it?
I'm allowed to say that? Yeah.
Because I think it's funny when people do that
and try to get away with it.
Elephant man.
Elephant boy.
Wait, what did you try to change it to? Woman at the last minute?
Elephant boy.
Eraser head. Yeah, that's a good one.
There we go.
Yeah, I forget if elephant man is the elephant man or just
elephant man, but I think it's the Elephant Man.
So Eraserhead.
It's definitely not the Eraserhead.
You know there's more than one Eraserhead
in the world.
I said Exodus,
Gods and Kings.
Yeah, for no reason.
I didn't see it.
Jacob?
I'm going to go with Zebra Head.
It's not shot here, but there's a lot of racial tension in the movie.
There's racial tension in my movie, too.
I went with Zorro the Gay Blade.
Just because it's funny that that's even a title.
And we don't have a winner.
We got through Jennifer Lopez. That's even a title. And we don't have a winner. We got through Jennifer Lopez.
That's a weird sentence.
Oh, man, you guys.
We just got through Jennifer Lopez.
A lot of effort.
So that means that
Jacob still gets to go first
in our next game.
Let's do some Last Man Stanton.
Now, this is super fun because uh everyone in the audience wants to participate but uh they can't and so they just have to sit there and suffer uh and there's a gentleman with
his hand up over there is that a dude yeah okay i'm gonna come to you in a second you can go ahead
and put your hand down don't you don, yeah, but don't say anything yet.
I'm going to explain what the game is first.
Someone in the audience, no, not to you, to the people on stage.
Put your arm down.
Stop with the thumbs up.
I got, yes.
Or maybe, did you just have a question?
Or you have a suggestion?
A suggestion for the game?
Is that why you raised your hand?
Okay.
We're good.
So here's how Last Man Standing works,
and I'll play along,
because he's the one that's going to decide
what name we're going to use.
But we'll start with Jacob and go this way.
We're going to just take turns after
he tells us the name of an actor, actress,
or director with a large body of work.
We're going to just take turns naming movies that
person was involved with. When you can't think
of one, you're out.
It's a real brain teaser.
It really makes everyone that
comes up and plays,
like from the audience and my guests, everybody,
it just really makes you know what early onset Alzheimer's feels like.
Because it's super hard, but also fun.
And this gentleman wants to suggest somebody,
and he's going to knock it out of the park.
I just know it.
Who would you like us to use today, sir?
First off. Oh, no. Wait a second.
He's already starting with some sort of preamble.
Do you know your Hitchcock?
I didn't ask you to
ask us. The idea
is... Okay, he's saying
Alfred Hitchcock.
Jacob?
Will you settle down?
We're doing Hitchcock.
That was your suggestion?
Thank you.
First of all...
You whippersnappers with your Jennifer Lopez's and your pretty women need to fucking talk some goddamn Hitchcock.
Jacob, do you have any?
Do I? Yeah, I'm going to go with rear window to start.
Okay, he's starting off with rear window. Took a good one.
Jeff?
Rope.
Yeah.
That's the one like Birdman.
It's all in one take.
I'm a big fan of Albert Hitchcock.
That's the kind of thing, if you tweeted that, 50 people would correct you.
Dude, it's awkward.
All right, so we got rear window and rope.
So, yeah, let's do all the R ones first.
Strangers on a train.
Strangers on a train doesn't begin with R.
I'm not. But it still qualifies.
I actually can't think of an R,
so I'm just going to get rid of a big one
and say the birds
I'll give it another big one with vertigo
Oh that's a really good one
Jeff
North by Northwest
Is that right?
Like three people clapped
and you didn't even say anything.
That is correct.
I think everybody else in the room
thought it was obvious.
I just found out it's Alfred.
So I'm glad I'm still in this game.
Shooter, you got another one?
Psycho.
Oh, yeah.
Low cut.
Oh, yeah, Psycho.
Yeah.
I'm going to go with The Trouble with Harry.
Good one, good one.
I'm going to go with Marnie.
Jeff?
Murder.
Murder.
Right?
With an exclamation point.
Murder.
Murder.
Alfred Hitchcock's murder.
I thought he died of natural causes.
Yeah, well, he does like, it's like a murder, but in Mexico.
Okay, Jeff's out.
Is it Dial M for murder?
What?
Is that one?
Yeah.
What'd you say?
Dial M for murder?
Mm-hmm.
Is that what you meant?
That's what he meant.
I ended up being close.
Yeah.
I did not know.
You really did.
You got the murder part right.
I will say Fren right. I will say
Frenzy.
I'll say Topaz.
Back to you already,
shooter.
Damn it.
This thing's out of control.
Lord of the Rings.
Full title.
The Fellowship of the Ring.
And the other seven.
So you're out?
I'm out.
Okay.
The Man Who Knew Too Much.
Ah, yeah, fuck.
Rebecca.
I knew that one.
The Other The Man Who Knew Too Much.
He made it twice.
Iron Curtain.
Oh, you motherfucker.
The Family Plot.
What have we said?
What have we said?
What have we said?
I'm not sure he did it. This game's messed up.
I'm not sure he did it, but I'm going to say...
Oh, he might have.
Give it a shot, see what happens.
I'm going to push this until you tell me I have to answer.
You have to answer.
I said that too early.
Fuck, did he make double indemnity?
No.
No, that was Billy Wilder, I think, pretty sure. Did he make double indemnity? No. No.
That was Billy Wilder.
I think. Pretty sure.
But anyway, it's not Hitchcock.
I win!
What did we miss?
39 steps.
Life boat.
I don't know if 10 Little Indians is right.
It is. I don't think it is.
Foreign Correspondent
to Catch a Thief.
Teaching Mrs. Tingle.
Alright, that's it.
I'm throwing your ass
out of here.
I'm going to go Helen Mirren on your ass.
But that ended up being
a good suggestion.
Thanks, dude.
But Jacob lasted the longest there,
so Jacob gets to go first in the Leonard Maltin game.
The Super Bowl of Doug Loves Movies.
And we're going to come to Shooter Second.
And hopefully this will make sense to you.
Do you remember that show, Name That Tune?
It's like, name that tune,
but with, instead of notes and songs,
it's actor names and films okay and it's all based
on all right proceed and it's uh it feels like now like you might be able to
say nope let's not play this one seems like you're judging it but we're gonna
play it no matter what but you'll be. I think you'll be good at it.
It's just the rudiments.
You've got to pick up how it works.
And we'll start with Jacob, and you'll see what's –
by the time we get to you, you'll know more about how this works.
Jacob gets to pick a category.
I use the Leonard Maltin app on my phone.
I'm not checking my messages or anything.
Oh, but she says hello.
All right.
Pulling up my Leonard Maltin app,
which is a dead app, actually.
It still works,
but he's not adding any more reviews,
and it's kind of sad,
but we're still playing the game.
Jacob, your category options are
Inherent Lice, which is summer camp movies
LOL Cool J
and that's comedies with LOL Cool J
and the third option is You're In This
and it's movies that someone in the panel
is in.
Which one of those would you like to play, Jacob?
I'm going to go with you're in this.
Okay.
All right.
Well, this is a fun way to teach you the game.
All right.
Clearly.
All right, well, this is a fun way to teach you the game.
All right, clearly.
Now what I do is I read some information from Leonard Maltin's review of the film,
including how many stars he gave it out of four
and what year it came out.
And then I'll tell you how many names he lists
in the cast of the movie, and he lists a lot of names.
And he generally uses, you know, reasonable billing,
like he uses the billing from the film
or he decides what order
they should be in.
Once you know how many names there are
then it's a bidding game where Jacob will
start with the first bid. I can name it in this many
names. We read from the bottom up
so as you take names off the
bigger names are going to go away.
I'm going to give the clues
to Jacob right now.
If you don't want to bid lower,
you have to ask the person ahead of you to name it,
or you can bid lower.
And if the person next to you challenges you,
then you have to know the movie to get the point.
Is it just actors, or is it directors and all that stuff?
Just actors.
Sometimes I'll give the directories a clue,
but I try to give terrible clues.
Jacob.
Three stars from Leonard
for this movie from 2005
that one of you on this panel is in.
He calls the movie
solid and straightforward.
He also says
Shooter Jennings plays the father,
his own father.
And he lists
nine names.
How many names do you think you can get in, Jake?
Now here's what happens, Jeter.
Was the Jeter Jennings clue real?
I'm making up clues now?
I don't know.
I thought you were...
Okay, 2005.
clues now? I don't know. I thought you were... There was two. Okay. 2005.
No, that's my bid. 2005 names.
That's where I'm going to get this movie in.
What's your opening bid? How many names did you say?
How many names do you think? Out of nine.
I've got to start
at seven.
I don't know. I already feel like I don't know what this is.
Okay, all right.
I'm going to pass it down.
Now, here's what you can do, shooter.
Yeah, I'm just trying to remember people's names.
Everybody's talking.
It's so hard.
Normally how this game works is
if you think you know the name of the movie,
you could say zero names.
Or if you think you know the names of the top, you could say zero names. Or if you think you know the names
of the top billed actors in the correct
order, you could say negative names.
So if you say negative one, you'd name the
movie and the top billed
person in the movie, which in this case, I think you
could do that. If you say
negative two,
you'd name the movie and the top two billed
people in the correct order. But you've got to get all
three things right. It's like a
horse race exacta. It's like a
trifecta. What?
He said seven, but that's because he has
no idea or not sure what
the movie is. I think you have
more of a grasp on which film
we're talking about.
Just a guess on my part.
But I'm afraid Jeff also knows what's going on.
So Jeff is going to be the next bidder.
So you want to go,
you want to make it
as hard for him as possible.
I'm confused, Doug.
I was also in a movie.
So maybe it's,
maybe it's that one.
I didn't see the whole thing.
I don't remember.
Maybe Waylon was a character
in this movie.
I know if I had written the movie,
Waylon would have been
in that fucking movie.
I don't know why Waylon's not in all the movies had written the movie, Waylon would have been in that fucking movie. I don't know why
Waylon's not in all the movies.
By the way, I realize how I
fucked up now when I could have done it in negative two names,
but I don't...
I didn't misunderstand the sentence.
I thought he... So, anyway.
Why do you guys have to bring fucking weed
every time before the show?
It's ridiculous.
You should practice this sentence.
No thanks, not till after.
I don't want to steal your material.
So what do you think, Shooter? How many names can you do?
So I'm saying negative three. That's the name of the movie
and three names. No, negative two.
And three names.
Okay, you want to do three names. Yeah, negative three. Oh, and three names. Okay, you want to do three names.
Yeah, negative three.
Okay, he says negative three, Jeff.
Jamie Foxx.
Who is that second person?
Okay, let's see. James Brown
I say name it
Okay
So
He's challenging you
So if you do this
Accurately
You'll get a point
If you don't
He'll get the point
Robert Patrick
Reese Witherspoon
Joaquin Phoenix
Walk the line
Alright
You went from
The bottom
Up
We're supposed to go
From the top down
Okay Joaquin Phoenix Reese Witherspoon Robert Patrick All right, you went from the bottom up. We're supposed to go from the top down.
Okay, Joaquin Phoenix, Reese Witherspoon, Robert Patrick.
Fucking Jennifer Goodwin got squeezed in in between Reese Witherspoon and Robert Patrick,
which isn't a bad place to be.
I've been famous with him since then.
Yeah, right?
That's why.
You think so?
Yeah.
I think the review was written at the time.
Big Love wasn't out.
What?
Big Love wasn't out yet.
Right, no, I mean, Leonard wrote this review
back when the movie came out.
But still,
that was an awesome effort
and I think you kind of
understand how the game
works now.
I got it.
But Jeff Tate gets the point
and he's probably crushed
because he idolizes you
and he just embarrassed you
in such a huge way.
God.
He called me.
I forgot.
Will you go on his podcast
and talk about Cheers? Yes. Absolutely. For called me. I forgot. Will you go on his podcast and talk about Cheers?
Yes. Absolutely.
For real? Yes. Absolutely.
We should just do this from now
on, just sandbag the other guests.
Hey, Jon Hamm, will you go
talk about Cheers?
We'll just do them back to back. And I apologize
to everyone in St. Louis that thinks
there's a chance Jon Hamm's going to show up.
Because I know he's from here
and he visits a lot,
but the timing's hard to work out.
So, you know, maybe someday.
Once again.
Keep buying those tickets.
Fools.
No.
Also, the Sklar brothers
should show up on the show here. That would be a good show, the Sklar brothers should show up
on the show here.
That would be a good show,
the three of them.
You can't tell them apart.
This is not the first time
that I've had to apologize
for not being Jon Hamm.
By the way,
once again,
I'm sorry.
Okay, so
Jeff's on the board with one point, everybody.
Begrudgingly.
It's like when Marciano knocked out Joe Louis, you know, to beat your hero.
That sucks.
Sorry, that was an obscure boxing reference.
You get to start us off again, though, Jacob, And then we'll go to Jeff and then to Shooter.
This is funny. This came up earlier.
Your first option is
The Babadookie.
And The Babadookie is
bad horror films, like horror films
that Leonard Maltin gave two or less stars.
We also have the category
Do You Want to Do Some Lines?
And that is a movie.
I'm paying very close attention
to who was clapping for that,
by the way.
That's movies where
a conga line breaks out.
No, they weren't clapping
because they love cocaine.
They were clapping
because it's a regular feature
on the show
where Mark Wahlberg comes out.
And they thought
we might have made him hide
until now.
This venue's not the kind of venue
where you can hide the guests at all.
We all just had to kind of traipse up
while you're all just standing in line or sitting inside.
So nobody here has cocaine?
It's very casual.
I bet you somebody does.
Didn't you run across some last night?
I did run across some.
Jesus.
I never see cocaine.
I mean, I also don't want to see it,
but we live different lives
oh also
speaking of cocaine the third option is
the late great John Belushi
would be celebrating a birthday today
and
so it's the films of John Belushi
which one of those would you like to play
not that I know so much about him
but I'm going with John Belushi because of the birthday thing
as a tribute
1981 is the year Not that I know so much about him, but I'm going with John Belushi because of the birthday thing. As a tribute? Yeah, as a tribute.
1981 is the year.
Leonard gives this movie the bomb rating.
He calls this movie tiresome.
He also puts the word comedy in quotes.
And he also says...
He also calls it pointless.
So yeah, he really railed on this one.
And he only lists seven names.
I beg your pardon.
Seven names.
Actually, it's six.
It's six.
Six names.
These hyphenated names and then the next names on the next line is confusing sometimes.
Negative one.
Whoa! Negative one.
Negative one. What do you think of that, Jeff?
I think I have no choice
but to say name it. Really?
Yeah, I don't...
Alright. Have any other...
Say it. Animal House?
Hang on a second. Jeff, are you going to say it?
Name that movie.
Animal House. Jacob, incorrect.
But also...
Not the right year.
Can I zero it? Yeah, it's 1981.
What year was Animal House?
70s. Oh, was it?
And probably not a bomb.
From Leonard Maltin?
But anyway, just wait for me to ask you to answer
before blurting out the answer
because he hadn't said name it for sure yet
and then you said the wrong answer
and some people in the audience went,
and then you still plowed ahead with the wrong answer.
I thought he said name it.
And also that means Jeff is our winner.
It's over already.
That's a shame.
So, want to play one more round for fun?
Was that Caddyshack?
Was the answer Caddyshack?
No, it was...
That's funny.
I completely didn't even say what the answer is.
Wrong.
Moving on.
Mr. Trebek, what's the answer?
We're in too much of a hurry.
The next category.
The answer was neighbors.
Neighbors with Dan Aykroyd
would be person number two.
But that was the other thing.
You didn't even try to guess
who the top-billed person was in Animal House.
And you said negative one was your bid.
Oh, I was just going to say Belushi.
What?
I was going to say Belushi.
Yeah, no, that's correct.
That was correct either way.
I think he was probably the top-billed person
on every movie he was in,
except for Going South with Jack Nicholson.
Was he billed over Ackroyd in Neighbors?
Yeah.
Ah. Yeah, he was bigger than Ackroyd.
Because he had Animal House without Ackroyd.
If he was here, he'd have cocaine.
I think Ackroyd was supposed to be D-Day,
and for some reason he didn't do it.
I think that's how it went down.
Anyway, let's play one more round,
but let's also...
So Jeff ended up winning, right?
So the guys have to split up the prize bag.
Do we want to watch them do that?
Do we want to see it happen?
Like should they just fight for the whole thing?
Come on up here.
What are their names again, Jeff?
Tom and Jen and Copeland.
Oh, so it's a couple and then a guy?
So I'll just put it right here.
I'll just gently drop it right there.
And, yeah, you guys just divvy it up.
One of you won't have a bag to carry it in, but, you know.
We kind of like to watch it happen, though.
See who gets what.
See who gets shafted.
Who likes board games more?
He's into it.
The guy with the hat's into the board game.
Give it to him.
That's easy to carry like that.
It's all packaged.
Oh, he wants the CDs.
Do you want to do one each on the Jeff Tate CDs?
What's the matter?
Well, yeah, don't be choosy.
Oh, yeah, don't take the one you already have.
Good call.
This guy's a...
There you go.
I can't believe the chosen people.
That's all he wanted. That's it? That's all he wanted? He just wanted the CD he didn't have. Oh, yeah, don't take the one you already have. Good call. This guy's a... There you go. I can't believe the chosen people. That's all he wanted.
That's it?
That's all he wanted?
He just wanted the CD he didn't have.
Oh, wow.
This guy's your biggest fan.
That was pretty awesome.
That was like the gift of the Magi, but if it were bullshit...
Great job.
We have vinyls on...
We'll give them vinyls on site here.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Well, you'll each get a vinyl.
Yeah, yeah.
Outside.
Yeah, yeah.
Wink.
In the parking lot, all right?
We'll see you in the parking lot.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Joe Pesci will show you where to go.
Or no, wait.
It was De Niro in that scene.
What?
I have another copy of The Chosen with me also.
No, you don't.
No, I don't.
He's got several dog-eared copies of it everywhere he goes.
All right, let's play one more round.
We'll let Shooter pick a category since he didn't get to experience that today.
We've got science.
Yeah!
And that's science fiction movies That Leonard really liked
Like three stars or more
And then your next option is
Cocktail
Is the category
And that's movies that have drinks named after them
At the bar at the Arclight Cinemas
In Hollywood
I was looking at the menu one time
So I made it a category
And your third option is
Streep Throat.
Streep Throat. And that's
movies where Meryl Streep has an accent.
Oh, man.
Which is kind of like saying
Meryl Streep movies.
But which one of those do you like?
Science Fiction? Science Fiction.
Alright. The year of this
Science Fiction movie is 1993.
Leonard gave it three and a half stars.
He says the movie,
the story can't bear close scrutiny
and that it won three Oscars
and he lists seven, 11 names.
1993, science fiction, three and a half stars from Leonard.
How many names out of 11 do you think you can get it in?
Shooter Jennings playing the mad magician later tonight.
In one of the hottest spots in town.
How many Oscars? Hottest spots in town. How many Oscars?
It's purple inside.
It won three Oscars
and that's actually
a pretty,
that's kind of
a giveaway number
for a movie
to win three Oscars.
It is and that's why
I can't believe
I don't know this.
I mean,
I think it's kind of
not an unusual number
of Oscars for a movie, but it is.
Okay, one.
You can name it in one name?
If you give me one name, I think I can.
I'll give you the, the only one name I'm going to give you is the,
no, is the bottom person out of 11.
Oh, oh.
That's the one name you're going to get if you bid one name, yeah.
So you probably want to bid a few more.
He says four names.
Four names Jeff
Name it
Right
Let's let Shooter play the game
Okay I think
You can pull this off dude
I have faith in you
I'll give you the clues again
Three and a half stars
Out of four
1993
There's something about the story
being hard you know the story can't bear a close scrutiny but it also won three oscars and the four
names reading from the bottom up are wayne knight samuel l jackson ariana richards and joseph mazello Samuel L. Jackson, Ariana Richards, and Joseph Mazzello.
I'm such an idiot right now
because I know this fucking movie.
Use your microphone.
I know this movie.
I know this movie.
Someone's getting a call.
Jurassic Park.
That's correct.
Jurassic Park.
That's correct.
Fucking Newman.
Newman played Ned Landry or whatever his name was in that.
And Nerdly.
And Sam Jackson, hold on to your butts.
And then the next two names,
Ariana and Joseph, those are the two your butts. And then the next two names, Ariana and Joseph,
those are the two little kids.
And Joseph showed up recently on a few episodes of Justified
as a preacher with a snake that got killed by his own snake.
The snake preacher.
Snake preacher.
But it was really hard to recognize him
because he's so grown up.
It was weird.
I was like, who is that?
And I finally was like,
that's a fucking kid from Jurassic Park.
He took 18 years off
and then got bit by a snake.
He survived dinosaurs
and then got killed by his own snake.
Well, congratulations to Jeff and Shooter.
I can't wait to have you guys back on the show again.
Yeah, thank you.
Anytime.
Thank you. Anytime. Thank you.

I have a terrible memory.
No, no. Everybody else sits there and goes,
I don't know. And then they try to do plugs after we've moved on.
Let me double check with Jacob.
You sure you don't have anything else to plug?
That's good enough, I think.
Well, I mean.
All right.
I'm telling you, that's what comedians do to me every show.
I move on to the next guy.
Oh, another thing I got to plug.
No, I'm good.
Do you want to flip through my notebook

Sure can I.
