Doug hates candy wrappers, screaming babies, sticky seeds with 50 azepop or kernels in his teeth.
There's still not one that he won't see, but Doug Loves Movies!
Hey everybody.
My name is Doug and I love movies. Hey, everybody.
My name is Doug, and I love movies.
This is Doug Loves Movies,
coming to you from the UCB Theater in Los Angeles, California,
before Comedy Bang Bang,
formerly Comedy Death Ray,
formerly Not A Thing.
It's Tuesday, November 8th, 2 Oceans 11.
I see that the clock that they have at UCB
is actually on the correct time, so that's exciting.
It's always been like five minutes fast, and I never understood why you'd have a clock near a stage if it wasn't telling you the accurate time.
And I'm excited that it's accurate.
I had a great time celebrating the 20th anniversary of Acme Comedy Club in the state of Minneapolis.
of Acme Comedy Club in the state of Minneapolis.
And thanks to everyone
who paid two bucks
to listen to
that particular boner ep,
if you have already.
It's not out as of
my talking right now,
but it will be out
by the time this plops
on Friday, I hope.
It's in the comedy album
section of iTunes
and, of course,
at douglasmovies.com.
Apologies for the sound problems on that
episode. I'll try not to let
that happen again in upcoming
eps that we tape on the road.
Shows that are coming up are in
Austin, Texas,
Burbank, California,
on a boat,
and
Sacramento. And more after
that, like Vancouver. Like it, I love it.
Flying back from Minnesota,
the in-flight movie was Rise of the Planet,
on which the apes decide to rise up
to take over the planet.
But I didn't watch it.
Yeah, I didn't watch it because
I want to see it for the first time,
with bright eyes eyes if you will
when I see it at the
next Benson movie interruption
here in Los Angeles at CineFamily
on Monday
November 28th you know I'm gonna
ask Lithgow to come
he might forget because as I
understand it he has Alzheimer's
in the rise of the
planet of people with the Brain
Problems. So go
to cinefamily.org for your
tickets for that. Now it's time
for Watch This, Not That,
a guide for people who have only time
enough to see one movie.
The number one film in the country is
Puss in Boots for the second week in a row, which means
it's gotta be pretty good, right?
I haven't seen it yet.
Because I'm allergic to cats
and leather.
The number two movie is Tower Heist,
a great movie to watch if you're suffering
from insomnia, because
you can count the plot holes until you fall asleep.
And congratulations to Brett Ratner
for unproducing the
Academy Awards.
I'm very happy that he's not going to be involved.
And, oh, so watch Puss in Boots, not Tower Heist.
This has been Watch This, Not That.
The prize bag tonight, holy crap, the prize bag, it's so amazing.
It almost didn't fit in my bag, this thing.
Somebody brought some popcorn in a bottle,
and then a big bong-like thing.
It looks like a coffee pot to make the popcorn in,
and it's called Axis Ideas That Pop,
and they got these bags, and they're...
Oh, Jesus.
That was close. How funny were funny were they oh it's plastic we've also got as you have grown accustomed to lately uh the the weezer cd hurley signed by all
all four members of the band a weezer poster and a Weezer t-shirt,
and then I have a couple of CDs from a couple of my guests
who will be out here in a second,
and that will reveal who they are.
Please welcome Dan Telfer, Pat Francis, and T.J. Miller.
Yeah! I'm the worst.
Dan Telfer,
your CD is called
Dan Telfer
Fossil Record.
Yeah!
His CD is called Dan Telfer Rooting Around in a Bag.
I do 15 minutes on Rooting Around in a Bag. I do 15 minutes on Rooting Around
in a Bag where I don't tell jokes about
Rooting Around in a Bag. I just do it on stage for
a CD. That's fair.
It's called Rooting Around.
Now Dan, you're visiting
from the state of Chicago. Yep.
Where all of
my guests tonight are from. I'm in the state of Denver. Yep. Where all of my guests tonight are from.
I'm in the state of Denver.
Did you...
You spent some time in Chicago, though.
That's where we met. Did you see a movie on the
plane on your way out to Delphi? I did. I saw
Rise of the Planet of the Apes for the first time.
Oh, that's the official title?
It's fucking awesome!
You loved it? It was great. It was amazing.
I loved the fuck out of it.
Wow. That's a reigning endorsement. Yeah, why did you wait? great. It was amazing. I loved the fuck out of it. Why?
Wow.
That's a reigning endorsement.
Yeah, why did you wait?
There was fucking, and then I loved it so much it was edited out.
Why did you wait for a long flight to see it?
The children?
Yeah, I have two children, so it's difficult to get out and see first-run stuff.
It has to end up on Netflix Instant Watch eventually.
But it was great anyway, even though it was on a shitty little old school tube television
on the roof of the plane yeah i i get very aggravated when i look around the plane and
every single uh every single screen is a different color yeah they're all they don't sync up at all
it's like being in the shittiest tv store looking around going why are all these tvs why
shouldn't TV just
be like, this is what it looks like? I know, it's like
a humane society where it's like, please adopt
one of these televisions.
They all have three legs. I was on a plane
and I saw a woman just looking
at a monitor. She was awake, had her headphones
in, and was just staring at a monitor
that said, please select
another channel.
Just straight up for like probably 15 minutes
and I was like what is wrong with this woman so I found the channel what do I
have to do and then and I had my earphones in and the channel was a very
faint showing of inside the actor's studio with Jennifer Aniston and I was
like what the fuck is this? Oh, wow, really?
Well, what happened when you did Just Go With It?
And I got sucked into it,
and I watched a very faint version of Inside the Actors Studio with Jennifer Aniston
with an overlay that said,
please select another channel.
So that's where I'm at in terms of my...
I watched that with the sound off and it was great.
Are you interrupting me?
Is that the show?
Did you interrupt me?
No.
You haven't even...
Is this a different show?
You can...
I was just about to see right at the top of the page.
It says Pat Francis.
Oh, okay.
I just wanted to make sure...

It's about Night Ranger and Loverboy.
It's about a great foul movement.
Yeah.
Rock Solid.
No, it's about music.
Oh, music?
Yeah.
You said Night Ranger.
You're right.
You're right, Ranger.
You're right.

now you so you're from chicago you're not gonna well i'm originally from pennsylvania oh jesus
i lived in chicago for six years all right well i asked around and they said you were from Chicago. You're not going to change it up. Well, I'm originally from Pennsylvania. Oh, Jesus. But I lived in Chicago for six years.
All right.
Well, that's why.
I asked around and they said you were from Chicago.
I'm from Chicago.
I decided to make it a theme show because Dan, of course, is from Chicago.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You mean originally?
Yeah.
I'm from Chicago.
Thanks for a yes ending on that one.
You're welcome.
I totally appreciate it.
But what's your favorite movie
that's, you know,
lots of movies
take place in Chicago.
Do you have a favorite one?
My favorite movie
that takes place in Chicago.
Okay, let's move on
to T.J. Miller.
You've already spoken a lot
and yet this is the first time
I've addressed you directly.
And I feel bad for that.
Don't feel bad.
Look, I wrote down that exact sentence
because I knew that's exactly what would happen.
Oh, my God.
Shut the fuck up.
He did.
He did.
He really did.
It's so frustrating because I get scared
when people don't seem to be enjoying it,
and then I try and make jokes, and people laugh,
and I'm like, that's a good thing.
But that wasn't...
I cheated because I knew if I talked to the other guys first,
you'd have to say something.
You can't... You're not going to sit there with a microphone in your hand and not say anything.
I'm scared.
I'll do one where I don't say anything.
But I wrote, you so funny.
You so funny.
You so funny, I can't even.
In my idiot brother.
I loved you in that.
You're so good in that.
But you so nice.
Is that on?
Thank you very times.
Thank you very many so times. You that on? Thank you very times. Thank you very many
so times.
You so funny too.
Is that
out on Blu-ray or DVD or anything yet?
No. I think it's mid
November, like November 15th or something.
It'll be out on DVD.
Alright. We'll have you back. Wait, what's today?
Today's November 8th. That's like one week away.
Yeah, it's really soon.
Can you come back next, what's today? Today's November 8th. That's like one week away. Yeah, it's really soon. I'm more,
I have, yeah.
Yeah, so.
I have a Comedy Central. Can you come back next week
to plug it?
Yeah.
No, I'm going to do
a Comedy Central
hour special
on November 12th.
And that DVD
comes out on the 15th.
So you can buy
No Real Reason
my hour Comedy Central
special on the 15th.
And My Idiot Brother.
And you can buy My Idiot Brother. You can just go on a fucking shopping sp my idiot brother. And you can buy my idiot brother.
Just go on a fucking shopping spree.
If you're at a Blockbuster and you're like,
A, how does this still exist?
And B,
I need to see a lot of T.J. Miller.
He's not obnoxious enough on this podcast.
Then buy them both.
November 15th.
Are you afraid that it's going to split the sales,
both of them coming out at the same time?
It might, yeah.
Because there's about 12 people in the United States
that will buy stuff I've done.
That's true.
And then six of them will go one way.
And that's six to the one way,
half a dozen to your mother.
Would it be rude of me to suggest that people
just tape the TV special from television and then not buy the...
Oh, that's a good idea.
And then put all your money on Idiot Brother.
Is that rude to point that out?
No, that's all good, man.
I mean, sometimes you just do it because you love people.
That's right.
Well, you're telling them to tape it, too, like use a VHS machine and not use their DVRs or something like that.
Just VHS machine.
That's what they're called, right?
Hey, do you guys have time machines? Because go back and use your VHS machine. Yeah, what they're called, right? Hey, do you guys have time machines?
Because go back and use your VHS machine.
Yeah, and listen to Cheap Trick.
Yeah.
I have a VHS DVD combo, and I bring Blu-rays home and just hold it near it,
and they quietly get mad at each other.
They make the woman from Weird Science.
Kelly LeBrock.
Boom, there it is. TJ Miller,
the extended play EP.
Fucking awesome.
How many tracks? One of the most confusing
things ever put out in the marketplace.
I will agree with that. I think that's
the best way it's ever been put. Your track on the
CD is one of the most confusing tracks
on the CD also. One of most confusing tracks on the CD also.
One of the funniest things on the CD is Doug leaving a voicemail.
Yeah, we've talked about that before.
And people can purchase it and listen to it.
Let's see which number I am on here.
It's too hard to find.
Because there's 41 tracks on here.
I bought this on iTunes, and I bought it track by track.
It cost me about $43.
Yes.
It's bad with sales tax.
Yeah, that doesn't seem fair at all.
Not only is it not fair, it's stupid that you did it.
Well, you know, I bought like two tracks.
I'm like, wow, I like those.
And then I bought a couple more.
I'm like, well, I might like this whole thing.
But I wasn't sure.
So eventually, I bought all 40 tracks.
Once you're in the 30s, though, it's your own fault.
It is. You're right.
You know what I'm saying? When you hit 34,
you need to look in the mirror. That's true.
That's what I found, because I bought every single
track individually. So stupid.
Because I make a little bread up. Mine's a bargain by comparison.
Potty Mouth's still available. Only
13 tracks. Oh, I wouldn't
buy that, though.
Also, it's in a paper case, so it's not all spiderweb,
like the one that was apparently trapped under T.J. Miller's bottom
on the drive over here.
I thought of a song for you to sing, though,
when you were purchasing T.J.'s album.
Okay.
Yeah, like a work song.
Okay.
Just for me or for everyone?
41 tracks, what do you get?
Another day older
and deeper in debt.
43 bucks.
So,
have you been to the cinema lately,
T.J. Miller, when you're so busy
making tracks?
Yeah, no, I haven't.
You're either trying to stop a train
or making tracks.
Half the tracks are T.J. saying,
I'm either in the studio or watching Childish Gambino.
It's one or the other.
So yeah, I haven't been to the cinema in a little while.
That's been frustrating.
But yeah, I saw some stuff on the thing.
You live quite adjacent to one of the best movie show places.
I'm not going to say where you live in El Segundo,
but you're right.
You're so close to the Magic Johnson
theaters. Is it still called that?
I don't think it's called that anymore.
So have you
seen a... You know what I did see on
video again that I love video?
We're really back in the day. You know what I saw
on the old projector wheel was
Dark Crystal. You guys seen
that recently? Oh, yeah.
First of all, two things about it. One, it's an incredible film.
It's so fun and weird to watch.
And crazy that Hanson was like,
well, I guess I'll do this
now that I can do anything.
This is what I'll do.
And then also, when I was younger,
I watched and I was like,
oh my God, this puppetry is,
it should be called magic tree.
It's unbelievable.
And now when you watch,
you're like, hide the strings,
Gelfand.
You could see strings in it?
Well,
it just looks,
it doesn't look as impressive,
which is kind of too bad.
But it makes it funnier,
for sure.
Because it used to be scary.
Were you guys ever scared
by the Gelfand?
Oh,
the Skeksis are scary as nuts.
Yeah.
Oh,
yeah.
The Skeksis are scariest as nuts.
They are.
Well,
like withered,
like exposed muscle tissue nuts. But yeah, pretty fucking.is are scariest as nuts. They are. Well, like withered, like exposed muscle tissue nuts.
But yeah, pretty fucking...
It's terrifying.
Yeah.
That's what I saw recently.
Withered what?
Exposed muscle tissue.
They look like they have no skin.
I don't remember the Skeksis well enough to...
They're fucked up bird dudes.
Yeah.
Let me break it down for you.
Are they slea stack ripoffs?
No, no, no, no, no, no.
They have like bird heads and weird like old man bodies.
What do they do to people?
They just sit in a tower and argue.
It's like a GOP debate.
It's kind of shitty.
But it is.
It's so horrifyingly boring.
Their arguments.
And Jennifer Connelly is the girl in it?
That's Labyrinth.
Oh, shit.
That's a David Bowie. At one point. And that's David Bowie. There are Muppets. Doc Crystal doesn't have the girl in it? That's Labyrinth. Oh, shit. That's a David Bowie.
And that's David Bowie.
Doc Crystal doesn't have any people in it?
It's just all puppets?
I think so, yeah.
It's primarily puppets.
There's Elfie-type people.
Wait, wait, wait.
When you say primarily, my question is, does it have any people in it?
No.
I guess it's porously puppeted.
But are there any people in it?
Are there any people in it?
It's pretty puppety.
One person?
No persons, just puppets.
Pretty puppety.
There's person puppets.
Person puppets.
Yeah, yeah.
There is?
Oh, there's puppets of people.
No, but there's puppets operated by people,
which I call person puppets.
Oh, okay.
Please.
Person. Like, I. Please. Person.
Like, I'm already so confused by the new Muppet movie already,
because Jason Segel's best friend is a Muppet,
but they sit and watch TV hoping they can meet the Muppets.
So I'm already like, fuck this.
Fuck this.
I love that.
I'm going to wait for Sarah Silverman's cameo and then leave.
She says she's in it for like five seconds and she's in the TV commercials.
They play it up.
They show that one shot of her that's just going, hey, I'm in this.
I'm in this.
I made an immense amount of money.
What about you, Pat Francis?
Same thing with the kids make it hard to see the movies?
Well, no, not if you want to see Puss in Boots.
I do want to see it.
I saw it. If it's number one or two for three weeksuss in Boots. I do want to see it. I saw it.
If it's number one or two for three weeks, I pledge to the audience that I will see it and weigh in on my opinion of it.
It's Zach Galifianakis' Humpty Dumpty.
Yeah, that's good.
You guys know Humpty Dumpty?
That gives it some street cred.
Anyone ever hear of Humpty Dumpty? No? Okay.
Humpty Dumpty had a dumb face, fell off a wall, broke all over the place.
Right, that guy.
Don't say face twice.
Don't say face twice.
My favorite thing about seeing movies with my seven-year-old is after every preview,
she turns to me and she'll say, I want to see that movie.
And I'll say, okay.
And then she'll say, can we buy it?
And I'll say, yes, if we like it, we'll buy it.
On DVD.
Yes, on DVD.
She's really planning ahead.
Radiations.
Yeah.
Why don't you just go straight to DVD with her?
Just make her think they all are on DVD.
Because she likes to enjoy something on the big screen, Doug.
She's really old-fashioned.
She is.
Doesn't seem cost-effective is what he's saying.
Old-fashioned seven-year-old.
I figure if I can buy those 42 tracks for 42 bucks,
I've got to take my kid to the Puss in Boots.
I'll pay for your next tickets, too.
Thank you.
To whatever animated film you want.
Thanks.
Let's get a weird rebate going.
If you bought...
How many times have you been in a party and heard that?
Let's get a weird rebate going.
Next thing you know, you owe $15,000 to Best Buy.
And you
fucked a plasma screen television.
That's how I ended that riff.
That was it?
Yeah.
Not as good an orifice as a VHS
machine.
For proof of that, see Videodrome.
I'm going to steal that for my stand-up,
though. And that's the end
of that joke.
And then go on
to the next one.
That'd be fun.
At the end of every one.
Yeah.
You can pull it off.
And then we do say
and here comes another joke.
Yeah.
Time for the next one.
Shall we play a game?
Sure.
Let's play the
Leonard Maltin game you guys.
Alright.
You've all been on the show
before.
You know what to do.
Let's see your name tags, everybody.
There's a guy with a game controller that he wrote Max on.
Yeah.
Tara has some sort of video game.
Call of Duty.
Yeah, that's some sort of video game.
Rhoda has an interesting song.
Oh, you both have the same.
It's like that's the school logo or something.
Hogwarts.
All right.
Jordan's back with the boxing glove.
Okay, guys, you remember what I said backstage when I said it's time to pick a name tag?
Go out and grab one right away and bring it back to your seat.
I don't know how I can explain things more to people.
What?
I'm picking it.
I want this guy with this thing.
You want that guy with that thing?
Jake.
Get that guy with that thing.
There's a guy with a to-go container, so he obviously had a meal and then wrote his name with this thing. You want that guy with that thing? Jake. Get that guy with that thing. There's a guy with a to-go container,
so he obviously had a meal
and then wrote his name on a thing.
There's a cupcake in here.
Oh, there's a cupcake in there.
Yeah, go get it from him.
Oh, because he could throw it.
That's right.
Thank you.
Jake, you.
It says Jake in the middle of that crazy...
What are these things called?
Orb expanders.
No wonder you picked it.
You know that they're called orb expanders.
Listeners at home, it's an orbit expander.
That's not the name of it.
I made that up.
And Pat picked a Batman that says Matt on it.
So it's Matt Man.
Oh, you're really going to eat that out of his neck?
I don't know what it was.
That might be some ecstasy.
I think I just did X.
Does it come like that?
I heard that's the twist
in the Dark Knight Rises.
Candy comes out of his neck.
He's been a Pez machine
for many movies.
That's why his throat's all fucked up when he talks.
He's got Pez in his fucking larynx.
I'm not a cherry pez in my mouth.
And I'm stopping crime.
Who are you?
Who are you?
I'm stopping crime. Who are you? Who are you? I'm in a three-pack with Yoda and Darth Vader.
It's really uncomfortable around Darth.
I sit on windowsills while someone's learning to creep on people's girlfriends.
Learning to creep.
Don.
That's Tron, right?
Don made a Tron sign.
Don made a Tron.
It lights up.
I think the name tag I've seen,
and I've seen some goodies,
but this is fucking awesome.
What is it?
I think you guys all did a great job.
He made a shadow box.
He painted a box black
and then put a light inside of it
and then cut out his name Don
in the Tron font
and then lit it up from behind
in blue. And then he cashed his
unemployment check.
Bravo, Don. But with spending that much time,
you know you fucked the O in your name.
Oh, that's true because he had to suspend
the dot in the O
so there was a big hole there for a while.
He could put his dick in.
Yeah. If you're suspending a small black circle
in the middle of the O in your name,
you're definitely going to put your dick in that.
Who doesn't see a black circle and think,
dick up.
This is actually more fun to watch than Tron Legacy,
to be honest, the sign.
Yeah, that sign is more fun,
except for he didn't put Olivia Wilde on that sign.
Oh, for Olivia Wilde.
She's pretty cute in that.
She is.
She's cute in everything.
This O was Olivia Wilde for a little while for that song. Oh, for Olivia Wilde. She's pretty cute in that. She is. She's cute in everything. This O was Olivia Wilde
for a little while for that guy.
Yay, Dan.
Thank you, Dan. There's the joke.
And here's a mother.
Pat's probably the fuzziest on the rules.
Dan is probably the most clear, so we'll start with Dan
and work our way to TJ and then
Pat. Dan, you get to pick a category
in your attempts to win this wonderful prize bag for Don.
Can't wait.
I'm going to try my hardest.
That's your pledge to Zach.
TJ, you're going to try hard.
Jake.
What do I call him, Jack?
Zach.
Zach?
What's his name?
All right, you're playing for Jack-Zach.
And you get to pick a category.
Dan. Dan gets to pick for Don.
Would you like a movie where Weezer's on the soundtrack?
Yeah, that's a few movies.
Weezercruise.com.
Would you like suggestedgested by a gentleman
I think it's a gentleman named Gloshi
At Gloshi, he suggested
Inspect Her Gadget
Which is movies that feature a gynecologist
Or
Or it's Parker Posey's birthday today
On November 8th So would you like Movies that feature Parker Posey's birthday today on November 8th, so
would you like movies to feature
Parker Posey? Which one of those three categories
would you like to try? Dan Telfer from Chicago?
Inspect her gadgets.
Yeah, I like the way you said it.
It's got to be, right?
China character.
Alright, remember guys,
don't start saying things that you think it might be
because that helps each other.
Pretend you're competing. All right, remember, guys, don't start saying things that you think it might be because that helps each other. Okay.
Pretend you're competing.
Four stars for this movie that has a gynecologist in it from 1968, Dan.
Oh.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Leonard calls this movie, he says that if you listen closely, you'll hear Tony Curtis' voice in a phone conversation.
That's a weird clue.
And he also says that it was followed by a made-for-TV sequel in 1976.
This is from 1968.
Four stars.
Has a gynecologist in it.
And there are Nine names
How many names
Do you think you can get it in?
DT
I can get it in
Seven names
Okay
Reasonable opening bid
We go to TJ Miller
I'd say name that movie
Alright
You really know
A 1967 movie
No I don't
I just gave a lot of names
I think the sequel thing
Might be my only in for this
Okay 1968
Actually
Four stars from Leonard
Yeah he said Tony Curtis
Voice can be heard in a phone conversation
That's a piece of trivia that I'd never heard
Before about this movie but if I had
I'd probably remember oh yeah that's that one
And then
Followed by a made for TV sequel in 76
And your seven names
In which I think you will get this
Are Charles Grodin
Patsy Kelly, Elisha Cook Jr
Ralph Bellamy, Maurice Evans
Sidney Blackmer, and Ruth Gordon.
Oh, I don't got it. I'm too young.
Don't say anything. What are you
doing? Did he just say it?
He didn't. Because I can search my lizard brain
for the imprint even though I didn't listen.
Bringing up
baby. I have no idea. That's a great
guess.
What do you think it is, TJ?
Charles Grodin plays the guy in a comic.
That's right. Rosemary's Baby.
Rosemary's Baby, you guys.
Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!
I was like, I know Charles Grodin.
This is the only name I recognized.
God damn it.
And the TV sequel was called Look What's Happened
to Rosemary's Baby.
Oh, shit. that is the devil John casted the great John Cassavetes and Mia Farrow rounded out the cast and so TJ well done point to TJ
Miller yeah impressive you've gotten points before,
usually by making someone else name it,
but there's no reason.
That's part of the strategy of the game.
I do not fault you for that.
It's like poker.
I'm not very good at it.
Yeah.
Since Pat was left out in TJ Challenge,
Dan, Pat will start this next round,
and then we'll go to TJ,
and then we'll go to Dan.
Pat, you get to pick a category.
Sandwiches.
Sandwiches is not a category.
But if it was, the movie would be
Fat Albert.
I don't even know if he eats a sandwich.
But it seems like he'd be holding
a big sandwich at one point.
Your category choices are
at Kronberg, C-H-R-O-N
Berg, with an E,
suggested
That Time of the movie.
That's period films.
Walking down the street tonight
Walking down the street tonight
to appear here, to come do this show,
I saw, sitting in an outdoor cafe,
Sam Rockwell and Justin Long.
And I tweeted to let people know, in case you guys
were waiting in line and saw them there,
that they were not going
to be guests on the show.
I didn't want you to be disappointed
just because they're in the neighborhood. They don't know
me. I mean, I know them, but they don't know me.
But I decided to
come up with a category called Rockwell
and Long.
That's also a police show fromwell and Long. That's also
a police show from the 70s.
And that's films starring Sam Rockwell
and Justin Long. They're both in the movie
together. And then your third choice
would be Edgar Wright Hasn't Seen It.
That's motion pictures that filmmaker
Edgar Wright has not seen.
I've been privy to a list
and he's going to show some of them at the New Beverly
in a couple weeks and hopefully I will participate in that in some way.
So which category do you like, Pat?
Edgar Wright hasn't seen it,
that time of the movie,
or Rockwell and Long?
I love a great celebrity sighting, Doug,
so I'm going to have to go with that Edgar Wright.
Right?
I like the way you play.
Thank you.
All right, we're going to start with you,
and then go to TJ, as I said.
1991 is the year this movie Edgar Wright has never seen came out.
Leonard Mulden gives it three stars.
I'm going to have a chat with Leonard next time I see him about how wrong he is.
Wrong because it should have more or because it should have less?
It should have more.
Okay.
Thank you for clearing that up.
Just curious.
No, that's a valid concern.
This will help me.
He says about this movie that it is imperfect,
but that it's still hard to dislike.
Which pretty much puts the movie in a three-star zone i think yeah it's not perfect but it's
likable admit this was okay yeah from 1991 three stars and there are nine names again
how many names do you think you can get it in pf that's all i get i just know that edgar wright
didn't seen't seen it
1991
It'll be names if you say a number
I'd say
If I were you
I'd probably
I'd probably start out
In the nine names range
And how many can I take?
If I were you
You can go all the way up to nine
Nine total
Well you know what?
I'm gonna have to go nine
Yeah
Smart play
Thanks
Might come back around
To bite you
But we'll see T. Thanks. Might come back around to bite you, but we'll see.
TJ Miller?
No, essentially...
This is where he talks long enough
that you realize he doesn't know what he's saying.
That you, yeah.
I mean, there's no way that you know this movie.
I don't think so.
So I'm going to say...
You're going to win right away by not doing anything.
If he hears all nine names,
I got to step in and say
since I suggested he bid
nine names, that he
would probably get it in nine names.
As most people would probably get most of the
movies that I play if you get all of the
names.
Name that movie.
Whoa!
This was exciting, everybody. that move. Whoa! And we'll see if Benson...
This was exciting, everybody.
You say that,
but it's Pat Francis.
Yeah, but TJ did that
with already...
He's already got one point.
I know.
So he can kind of
play around like this
a little bit.
I got a little bit of leeway.
He can do something...
You know what it is.
Real juice.
You've got a little bit of juice.
But it's about to be a two-way tie
between you and Pat Francis
because I will be stunned if this
doesn't work out in Pat's favor.
He'll say the dumbest
thing on his mind. No, I won't.
I can name your CD in 41 tracks.
Don't say something dumb.
I bet you can't. What's his CD called?
I don't know.
It's called The Extended Play EP.
Yes, yes. By JT.
Three stars from Leonard.
Not fair
and wrong. I'd go four stars
maybe more if it were possible.
Oh, you'll get it.
Dan suddenly,
you'll get it.
This is going to be easy.
I'm pissed about that. I changed my mind
completely. Imperfect
but hard to dislike.
The TJ
Miller story.
I know.
I think that's
a clear win.
Alright, here's
your name. I dislike you right, here's your nine names.
2011.
I dislike you right now.
But it's hard.
Because you just gave it away.
Because here's your nine names.
Okay.
Ethan Embry, Peter Shuck, Lillian Lehman, George D. Wallace.
Here's where it gets giveaway names.
Thank you.
Buck Henry, Lee Grant, Rip Torn, Meryl Streep, and Albert Brooks.
Oh, God. What is it called? Oh, myorn, Meryl Streep, and Albert Brooks.
What is it called?
Oh, my God.
Defending Your Life.
Don't whisper it.
Say it out loud.
Defending Your Life.
That is correct.
That is correct.
I can't believe that with all the names of a classic comedy.
I'm as surprised as you.
Hey, you had me at Embry.
You didn't know Ethan Embry was in there.
I did.
Really?
He's in Dutch, right?
Yeah.
Yeah, thanks.
I fucking know movies.
What does he do in Defending Your Life?
I really don't remember.
He's that kid.
Dutch is an awesome movie.
Dutch is good.
Okay, you're both excused.
Ed O'Neill.
I do love that guy.
Ed O'Neill.
Yeah, Dutch is imperfect.
I give it back.
Yeah, hard to like.
Hard to not like. Yeah. Three stars'Neill's great. Yeah. Dutch is imperfect. I give it back. Yeah. Hard to like. Hard to not like.
Yeah.
Three stars.
Cake boss.
Okay. Okay.
Finally, I'm happy again.
Well, this has gone great.
We have Pat Francis has a point.
TJ Miller has a point. Dan Telver always has a point. TJ Miller has a point.
Dan Telfer always has a point, but he doesn't have a point in this game.
You've always got something smart to say, though.
Do I?
Look at you sitting over there.
I'm waiting.
So you get to start.
Yeah.
And then since TJ challenged Pat, it's going to go to TJ after you, Dan.
All right.
Yeah.
That's how we do it.
Would you like In Theaters Now?
That's motion pictures that are in theaters now.
Or, at King of Pancakes suggested number one movie any certain number of years ago.
This particular edition I'm going with 10 years ago.
The number one movie on this very day
at the domestic box office 10 years ago. The number one movie on this very day at the box office the domestic box office 10 years
ago. Okay. Or
classic category. I can't get rid of it until I've
exhausted it. Doggone it.
Movies in which a dog
dies.
Which one of those
which one of those would you like to play?
I always forget how horrible that is.
Theaters now?
Ten years ago to this day, number one?
Or dog diet?
Ten years ago.
Let's do it.
Ten years ago.
Yep, yep, yep.
Okay.
This movie was number one ten years ago today.
Three stars from Leonard.
I think some people
would disagree.
I'm not sure.
I haven't seen it in a while.
Some people actually
do disagree.
Yeah.
There's more than two people.
I just think of this
as being more beloved
than a three star movie.
Much like the last one,
perhaps?
No, the last one,
I loved it.
In this case,
I'm not making that judgment.
All right.
I'm just saying.
You'll be surprised by the three stars.
I'm trying to help you out.
Oh.
I'm trying to help you out.
He calls it clever.
He calls it funny.
And he says that a song from the movie won the Oscar the next year for best song in a movie.
And there are nine names.
You guys are good at picking the...
This is the 999 edition of Douglas Movies Leonard Mullen Game.
How many names do you think you can get it in, Dan?
Six names.
That is the perfect opening bid. Six names.
That is the perfect opening bid.
TJ Miller.
In my bowels.
Five names.
Oh.
Oh, yeah.
Oh.
This is interesting.
Oh, this is going to end it.
One of these two is going to score a point.
Oh.
We'll see.
Can you lose a point?
No, sir.
Your point is yours to score a point. We'll see. Can you lose a point? No, sir. Your point is yours to keep.
Alright.
That makes me decide
if I want to say four names
or not, though. That's what I'm saying.
If you make him name the movie, one of you two
will win with this one.
But you could go for it and be a man.
For once
in your goddamn life.
They should have smack talk like this on
Final Jeopardy
yes I love it
you could bid it all but
be a man
just bid a little bit
give somebody else a chance
yeah if you tell him to name it and he names it
he'll win
and if he doesn't name it you'll win
and Dan will be over there going that's what I said was gonna happen or you could to name it and he names it, he'll win. And if he doesn't name it, you'll win.
And Dan will be over there going,
that's what I said was going to happen.
Or you could go lower than five names. I could say one name.
If you want. I can clean this shit up.
Whoa!
Then you're risking
a three-way tie
because Dan could tell you to name it
and you might fuck it up. That's right.
So I should say, name that movie. Right. You're not getting a three-way tie because Dan could tell you to name it and you might fuck it up. That's right. But you might.
So I should say, name that movie.
Oh.
Right.
But what I'm going to do is say.
Oh!
The drama!
He did it quite safely.
Again, again, this should be allowed on Jeopardy.
You should be able to go, I'm thinking this, but I'm going to do this.
Alex would not enjoy the way the audience's time was wasted in that scenario.
Alex, I want to say what is apples, but I'm going to go with what is...
What the fuck is wrong with this guy?
Alex, I'm going to go with why the fuck does he think he can do it?
Four names.
Four names.
All right, Dan.
What was the category?
The category was...
The category was Pat Francis is in trouble.
No, it's called
10 years ago to this
day. Oh, well, certainly. The number one
movie 10 years ago to this
very day. This is a good one. Three stars.
I don't think that's enough.
Clever, funny, and the song
won best song the next
year at the Oscars. Well well Doug, if words could be formed
with my mouth, with my tongue slapping
against my soft palate as my teeth
receives the tip over and over again
in the form of consonants and vowels
perhaps those consonants and vowels
eventually becoming syllables
and those syllables, words that have both
subjects and predicates and those
subjects and predicates becoming a sentence that may or may not be
in a paragraph, although this statement should be
short, because I'm simply playing a game
where I make a choice between choice
A and choice B, so a paragraph
wouldn't really be necessary.
There's more than two choices, actually.
That's true.
There are a number of things you could do
at this point. There's actually four numbers I could
say, or I could go into negative numbers.
This is the chess of dumb games.
Lots of ways this could go.
The chess of dumb games.
Well, Doug, if I could take my rook just for a moment
and move it to...
Quit stalling, Dan Telfer!
Pat Francis, name that movie.
All right, here we go.
Pat Francis gets four names and I told you
the clues a lot so you know right you need to hear Edgar Wright never saw it I
don't know if you saw it or not your four names all right that I think are
pretty helpful but probably not too helpful. This movie is from 2001.
Yes, sir.
Is it Space Odyssey?
Please, no pre-guessing and no extremely wrong guessing.
Okay.
Those are two things I try not to have the players do.
Bonnie Hunt, Frank Oz, John Ratzenberger
Oh
And Jennifer Tilly
Are the four
I know what it is
Names
I know exactly what it is
Involved in this
Ratzenberger
Yeah
Tilly
Yeah
So easy
I do not know it
Yeah
And there's a specific difference
Between the players up here that
explains why TJ
does not know.
There's a song in this movie
that won the best song
in 2001.
That's what happened.
Dan is so upset
with himself. Would you have gotten
the three names?
You would have gotten the three names. would have gotten The fuck out of this
You would have gotten
With three names
Because you would have
Gotten Rasmus Berger
Do you want me to whisper
In your ear what it is
Just so I can prove
Myself to you
I think we all know
That you know what it is
Yeah
We will
We're going to
Body language
We're going to trust you
On this right Jordan
We trust him
Jordan was at Disneyland
Today and a guy
Recognized him from the podcast
Whoa
That's some crazy shit
That is crazy
I don't know who's weirder
I recognize you
That guy or Jordan.
Was it you? You're just friends, right?
It would be weird to be, my friend
recognized me from the podcast.
Is it? Is it? Yes.
Is it Magnolia?
Is that a real guess?
It is. I don't know it.
It's Toy Story 2, isn't it?
Whoa.
You guys...
Guess what it is.
Guess what it is, TJ.
Just take a guess.
I think it's Monsters, Inc.
That's right!
How did you...
You don't even have kids!
How did you...
How do you know?
Sometimes on the weekends, on Sundays,
I take out other people's kids.
And by that, he means he murders them.
Very good guess.
He takes them out.
I didn't see it with my kids.
My kids are too young.
I saw it alone in a movie theater
just so I could see the preview
for Attack of the Clones.
Good for you, trench coat.
Yeah.
And I do not look pleasant alone in a theater.
So what just happened here?
The game's still tied up.
Three-way tie. Three-way tie. Only one of you is wearing a tie happened here the game's three-way time
three-way time only one of you is wearing a tie but it's a three-way tie
and yeah I thought the Oscar thing would give it away because Disney or Pixar
movie wins the Oscar for best song every year pretty much I said I would have
said for that year the hustle and flow song one I love that song it's hard out
here for a pimp.
It is, isn't it?
Pimps do so much better
in other cities than here.
It's very difficult in this,
even in the tri-state area.
Nevada.
All right, TJ,
here's the part
where we have to speed
into the finish of the game
because we're running out of time.
So try to avoid sidebars.
And what just happened?
You got the point, Dan.
I got the point?
Who challenged?
I challenged him.
He had to guess.
Yeah, yeah.
So TJ was out of that.
So we'll start with TJ and then go to Dan.
And TJ gets to pick a category.
Would you like Scream movies?
That's one of the four Scream movies.
I'll take Scream movies.
Okay, Scream movies for the win.
Thank you.
I'll take Scream movies.
This is one of four films.
This is the best.
That have Scream and a number or no number in the title.
This is the best.
I've seen them all.
I've seen them all.
This particular one got two and a half stars.
Yikes.
One of the later ones.
Dada, come home.
It's from the year ones. Dada, come home. It's from the year 2000.
Oh, well then,
oh, Leonard God.
Leonard calls it
the finale,
but in quotes,
wisely.
He wisely put that
in quotes.
And he says,
it's fun for fans
with some choice cameos.
And there are 18 names.
How many names do you think you can get in, TJ Miller?
Where's Sarah's 41?
All right.
Telfer.
Keep it together over there. I'm sorry.
I don't have a socially acceptable laugh.
That is true.
It's actually true.
I mean...
Out of 18.
Oh my God.
Pick a number.
Hell, 14.
Yeah, nice.
Watch me.
Strong opening bid.
Wait, who challenged on the last round
who challenged you
he challenged you
okay so we go to Dan
14 names
14 names
it's one of the four
scream films
right right right
it's the finale
I'll bust that up
14
the finale's in quotes
I can name it
in zero names
ugh
nice
that's what I should have done
I should have done that.
Yeah, maybe.
Maybe.
We'll see.
Now we go to Pat Francis, who can go negative names.
Okay.
Listing names from the top of the cast.
Oh, man.
Going down in the right order.
I have to name names.
If you say negative names.
I'm a rat, Doug.
I'm not naming names.
Okay, so how many do I have to name that's a fun bit but you have to
you could say I can name it negative one name then you'd have to name the top build act the
name of the movie and the top build actor all right I will name it in negative one name nice
all right so now we're back over to you decision time can you go more names negative one name how
many names are there 18 I'll do it in negative 17 names.
What you got, Telfer?
What you got?
Put that on Trebek, motherfucker.
Put that on Trebek.
I've never been more.
I know you're sticking to the game.
Wow.
But you're also doing something to make it take longer.
Because...
I'll name it.
No, you're not going to be able to name 17 names in the proper order.
That is nigh on impossible.
Do not let him take this back.
I would like him to do it.
He has to take it back.
He's being ridiculous.
Can I play my naming chip?
TJ, can you promise you'll do it in less than 60 seconds?
Yes. Yeah, because he's not going to be able to do it in less than 60 seconds? Yes.
Yeah, because he's not going to be able to do it.
Right, right, exactly.
I'll be able to call it right away.
Okay, so what do you say, Dan?
Well.
Let's see if you can name it.
I know what the movie is.
Name the fuck out of that movie, TJ.
Okay, name that movie.
You got to name, what's the movie, first of all?
I think it's Scream 3.
Correct.
Yes.
And what are the 16 names?
Who's the top-billed actor?
Let's start there.
Anna Faris.
Yes!
It's not Scary Movie.
It's Scream.
Oh, I see.
Well, then, no.
I won't be able to win.
Dan Telfer is our winner.
Dan Telfer wins.
Stay right there, TJ.
I'm going to take a picture of you after we're done here.
Get out of here.
All right.
Jake, did you write a shithead on here?
No, you didn't.
No shithead on the mat.
So if you guys can shake.
That's right.
Jake, right?
You hold on to that.
Don, come get your prizes.
Don Tron wins all this stuff.

Dan Telfer, Pat Francis,

plug, sort of, I guess, for something
called CherrySpits.com. And I agree with this one. Joe Paterno is a shithead, so that's a nice plug, sort of, I guess, for something called CherrySpits.com.
And I agree with this one. Joe Paterno
is a shithead.
Yeah!
