Dragon's Dogma 2, the highly anticipated successor to the cult classic Dragon's Dogma,
is out now on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S and X, and Steam.
Dragon's Dogma 2 is a third-person action RPG boasting a richly detailed and deeply
explorable fantasy world created using Capcom's RE Engine's immersive physics,
groundbreaking character AI systems, and cutting-edge graphics.
Dive into the vast and dynamic world where The Arisen is called upon to fulfill a forgotten
destiny across the nations of Vermont, the Kingdom of Humanity, and Batal, the nation
of Beastrin.
Dragon's Dogma 2 revolves entirely around choice.
Your choice, that is.
From the sword and shield-wielding fighter to fighter to the illusion conjuring trickster, there are over 10 unique vocations to choose from that all require experience to unlock new skills.
And character customization is out of this world, literally. Oh, and did I mention the combat is
really in-depth? It isn't just hacking at a giant's ankle for half an hour while your dodge
roll attacks. You can engage enemies from a distance, climb up large foes, stab them in This is a Rooster Teeth production.
Hello and welcome to another piece of supplemental
face content. This one
is the long
teased and awaited viewing of mvp2 most vertical primate
as led by andrew pantin my name is jeff ramsey and somewhere around here is gavin free as well
uh he he's known known as our second favorite british guy behind dr peab. Andrew, take it away.
This is MVP 2.
We're about to start.
We just did the presentation.
I want to know how long did that take?
Was that like 15 minutes?
How long did that end up going?
Yeah, you were right around.
With your whole presentation,
you were right around 15.
And you can watch that on our YouTube channel.
Yep.
Yes, you can.
So this is MVP 2.
As I talked about before, this is the movie that convinced me
that I could immediately start skateboarding, like with no practice at all.
I got a skateboard because of this film, attempted to do it once, bailed really hard, did the splits, never skateboarded again.
That's my journey.
But I'm hoping that you both enjoy this MVP 2 journey.
I haven't watched this movie in probably like 18 years.
Didn't you just flip off someone in a car?
Is that related?
What happened with that?
No, that's a completely different story.
Oh, okay.
That is, that was,
I saw somebody flip somebody off in a car
and I didn't know what it meant,
so I just stood in front of my house
and I waited for the next car to drive by
and I flipped them off
and then gauged their reaction
on whether it was a positive or negative
for some reason I thought you had a skateboard with you when you did that
no I did not I probably should
I wonder what episode
I feel like that that you mentioning
that you look decided to learn to
skate from the monkey in MVP to must
have been like in the first 20 episodes of
face it's got to be 16
very oh yeah that's possible very
early on in face lore uh i'm excited that
after these many years and 127 episodes of the main show we're finally we're finally getting to
dig into such an inspirational piece of content i'm excited there's some some good cameos in this
there is some there's at least one character in this movie that uh you'll have additional context for going into MVP 2.
And it's not who you expect.
I'll just leave it at that.
I don't expect any of them.
We had a talk. You know that somebody else
from the first one is in this movie.
It's a different person
that returns in a more official way.
I wonder if this is even going to show up.
Oh, it does. Do you guys have any
any guess on what the domestic, what the worldwide gross on this movie is?
Oh, I'm going to say $6 million worldwide.
It opened at $99,518.
Domestic and worldwide gross were the same same i guess it didn't go wide uh the movie grossed
1.248 million dollars yeah i was gonna say i remember seeing the first mvp in a movie theater
and i watched this one on vhs because i think it went straight to video sequel. The sequel did not get a theatrical release. Sorry, I just did that.
What was the budget?
Oh, shit, I just closed it.
Let me, hold on.
It has to be live.
I don't know if it listed it.
Let's see.
Most Viable Primate 2000,
it is listed under Comedy Family Sport.
Does not list the budget.
Okay.
Yeah, unfortunately.
MVP to budget for Most vertical primate two million
dollars us oh really they gave that movie to us and they paid 800 grand to do so it costs a lot
of money to book bob burn quest he's a lot he's a big star bob burn quest bob burn quest on this
are you spoiling yes yes uh you know it's in the trailer. I don't know. I don't think it's in the credits.
I didn't mean trailer.
Fair enough.
You'll see him quick.
Okay, you guys ready?
I am so ready for this.
Okay.
The beginning of this movie is so good.
So I've rented this on Amazon Prime.
Well, I guess Amazon,
because you can watch it for free on Amazon with ads,
but in order to give you the full Unfettered experience,
there are no ads, so I've paid the two dollars i believe to uh rent this um what's gonna happen is that you can rent it as
well i think you can watch it for free on 2b but syncing it up with us is gonna be a headache so
if there are ads there you might want to just go for mvp2 on amazon i'm going to count down three
two one now and then on now you're gonna hit play along with us and then that will have you MVP 2 on Amazon. I'm going to count down 3, 2, 1 now.
And then on now, you're going to hit play along with us.
And then that will have you synced up.
Yeah, well, let's see if it works.
Should we try to, should we endeavor not to hit pause at any point
and just to go all the way through just to make it?
Yes, we should not hit pause at all.
Okay, just making sure like everybody understands that.
Okay.
You got you good.
You see my screen.
We're good.
Yeah.
Ready to go. You're going to have to update these totals now box office can you test your audio okay i'm gonna i'll i'll play it we'll start it and then i will oh it sounds great
good hang on hang on hang on sounds great so there's that we're gonna i'm gonna pause it right
at the very beginning jog it back we'll get it going here we go this has ads in it i paid for
it to not have ads i'm just saying it said it said free v free has ads in it. I paid for it to not have ads.
I'm just saying. It said free V, free
with ads. But I paid for it.
Then I'm seeing ad breaks.
I've paid for it.
You ordered the
$2 standard def version instead of
the $5? No, no, no. I paid for
the high definition version.
Are you on the right account?
Yes.
I have not left the fucking page.
This is the...
I ordered it, and I did not close this window.
Maybe if you refresh it?
Yeah, maybe you gotta do a refresh.
Jesus Christ.
You didn't do it for MVP1, did you?
No.
Again, I didn't close
this window.
I didn't know this was produced by Air Bud Entertainment.
Oh yeah, it is.
Robert Vince has directed all those movies.
We're going to get it started and if there are ads
I'm going to jump out a window.
Let's do it.
I'm going to jog it up.
See, no ads.
Alright, here we go. On now now are you ready for mvp audience if you bought this be sure to refresh
before this moment don't sit on the page and go surely this will be the way to do it
because it's not okay here we go three two one now oh that sounds great
Eric actually can we do this
another time
I'm watching
MVP 2 right now
you can go if you have to if Gavin said
if Gavin said no seriously I have a film crew outside
I forgot I would not be surprised
he's like I gotta shoot a TV show
oh
did Robert Vince direct the first one as well yes he did he's like I gotta shoot a TV show oh did Robert Vince direct the first one as well
yes he did he's directed I think
every Air Bud movie like all of the
Air Bud entertainment I think that's all he does
this guy's the Steven Spielberg of animal movies
so it's actually just called MVP again
really yeah
is this El Simeon
I guess it is yeah I don't
remember it starting this way
so all the monkeys in the
monkey well all the chimpanzees in the nature preserve wear human clothes in nature i guess
so yeah that's i believe jack and his brother louis i want to say wait he had a brother this
whole time uh yeah but it's not at all important to the first film. He gets introduced in the second one.
So only two of them wear clothes?
Just, yeah.
Do you think the other monkeys hate them?
There's Bob Burnquist.
Go an ape!
That company no longer exists.
I wonder if that's still in business
No they're not
We will never get movies like this made ever again
Y'all have seen Nope right
Isn't this kind of how that movie started
Yes
That's exactly what it was
Yeah
So Andrew
This is like a good shit film Or is it a shit film or is this genuinely a
good film well as a 10 year old in your memory in my memory this was just a genuine great movie
but i think this is a shit good film but we'll find out if it's just a shit film dunstan i would
classify as shit but good no dunstan's just good i don't i think dunstan's just good. I don't. I think Dunstan's just good.
I do think,
though,
we need to come up
with a rating system.
And when this is set,
all said and done,
we need to decide
which we liked better,
MVP 2
or the tuxedo.
Yeah.
Him and his brother
read an NHL magazine.
Well,
yeah,
of course.
It's funny.
I don't remember.
I remember this movie
opening completely
differently.
So they missed the hockey life.
And they missed, clearly.
And Louis wants to be involved in the hockey life.
This is insane to watch.
It's got the old Nuggets outfit.
Yeah, he isn't.
He doesn't like it.
Who can play him?
Jack has a mean slap shot.
ZHL.
Nobody watches ZHL.
That guy on the right,
that's exactly where my forehead is going.
Does his shirt just say drill?
And there's a picture of a drill bit? Yep.
It's such a 90s shirt.
It's such a 90s skate culture shirt.
So there's a team called the Simeons.
That are unrelated to the Nuggets.
Or the Simeon, El S to the Nuggets or the Simeon else.
El Simeon Nature Preserve.
Yes.
There's a lot of coincidence.
There is a lot of coincidence. Dude, there is nothing better than a hot dog at a game.
Do you get hot dogs on the ice?
Oh, God. oh god now was she in the first one at all at the end like when he went home
which one's jack he's the bigger one Gav, I got a question for you.
Yeah.
Do you think Andrew's still here?
I haven't heard him in a while.
No, I don't think so.
No, I don't think so either.
Okay, just making sure.
I'm really glad that we can't pause.
Yeah.
Andrew's just dropped us off at the movie.
He's going to be around in 90 minutes in the station wagon to pick us up hello
oh no so well it sucks that our it sucks that our monkey expert isn't here to answer
because i know he wasn't an important part of the first one but I'd love a little more
backstory into Jack's family and if his
brother
see if his fucking
how this is possible
oh he just got drafted to
the ZHL
what oh no
502
bad gateway I thought that he
skateboarded does he play hockey in this?
Maybe that's how he gets his start.
So wait, he didn't know he was getting drafted?
I don't know.
Maybe that's why he was watching.
He was hoping to get drafted.
When did he apply?
Did he send an application?
I bet Louie did.
Louie was like,
I can't handle this hockey life.
I need Jack to go live his dream
and stop throwing apples at me.
So I'm going to make him eligible for hockey.
What is cloud?
Nick is positing that maybe Jack had a career-ending injury,
but we saw him leave.
Do you like his shoes?
I like the whole point of the last movie
was getting back to where he's from,
getting back to the preserve.
Where he belongs.
Yeah, where he belongs.
And now it's like,
all right, come on back, sequel money.
So there's a lot of, I wonder if,
similarities to his real life situation, right?
Like the monkey, I don't remember his name now,
if it was Bobby, Bernie.
The monkey Bernie, or rather the chimpanzee,
Bernie,
he eventually left and went to the,
what zoo did Andrew say?
Oakland,
Oakland zoo.
Do you think that Bernie,
the chimpanzee,
like watches TV at the Oakland zoo and sees his old career go by as like
acting monkeys and gets sad.
And it's like,
Oh,
this is a,
this is a,
this is a hard parallel to live with.
And then his agent keeps calling. It's like, yeah, it's like, no, this is a hard parallel to live with. And his agent keeps calling.
He's like, you can go back.
He's like, no.
I can't do it.
I can't.
I can't.
Oh, Andrew, you missed it.
He just got drafted to the ZHL.
Hello?
Where did you go?
Why did you leave?
I didn't.
I heard Jeff say, isn't it weird that Andrew isn't talking and I had never
stopped talking the entire time
oh yeah we never heard you just thought we were talking
over you no I was
talking in between both of you
and it just flowed it still made
sense it did not flow there was no talking
from my perspective
everything was like flowing fine
and like we're all going back and forth and like
it just coincidentally lined up.
I'm hopping back into the what's happening.
What do you mean?
He got he just got drafted to the ZHL.
You've you've told us this is a movie about monkey skateboarding, but he's only it's just been a hockey movie.
Yeah, it's pretty hockey heavy.
I don't know what I watched because.
Simeon.
I don't remember him being drafted.
He got drafted by this guy.
He didn't even know he had made himself eligible for the draft.
Was he a first-round pick?
Where did he go?
Oh, no.
He was, like, in the 11th round.
That's insane.
Yeah.
Well...
And he got drafted to the Seattle Simeons.
There hasn't been a lot of clarity on that career-ending injury yet, so who knows?
That's true.
They don't even know about
him?
No, I think the goalie does.
The guy at the nose ring
or the same actor playing a
different role, which appears to be
the case.
That suggests he's
like a human and a half. that doesn't make any sense yeah
well it's Gretzky Gretzky was 99 yeah he's half of he's better than slightly
better than one half one half one half of one point better than Wayne Gretzky
oh shit Wow that's a dilemma. That sucks for him.
You play for the Simeons, you fucking idiot.
That's where the Canucks play.
I want to play for the Carjackers.
Did you watch a lot of Bruce and Clark hockey news hour when you were a kid, Andrew?
I would have if it was available.
That was a real thing.
Is that the janitor?
Is that Darren?
No.
Oh.
Are you sure?
I'm pretty sure.
Monkey on the bench.
These movies were made less than a year apart. I bet they never even stopped production.
They just gave everybody new clothes
and just started up with a sequel.
They quickly filmed another movie before dropping him back off.
They're like,
the guy,
they're like,
Darren's like,
what do you want me to be in the new one?
They're like,
Oh,
you're actually the AD in this film.
You're not in the movie.
Oh,
so he's on the bench.
Yeah.
He's on the bed.
Well,
yeah,
he's right.
All the time in hockey.
You have different lines
I don't know why that guy's wearing a headset I've never seen anyone wear a
headset on the bench that's coaching oh they all think yes
what is
I can see the headlines already.
This guy is how every fan interprets their owner.
Like every sport.
Oh, shit.
These other give a fuck. Are those his parents? I I guess I don't know
I don't understand how all these people aren't aware of Jack like it's not like
there's a huge market for famous championship winning hockey chimps oh
that guy's off the ice and you're on a monkey team like yeah you're on the
simians yeah okay so it is a hockey movie, Andrew? No. It's very possible we're watching the wrong movie.
No, this is...
Why don't we find out that Andrew has never seen MVP 2 before?
No.
I don't remember there being this much hockey in it.
But look, he scored immediately.
Yeah.
Well, it was an assist.
Oh, now his brother wants to play hockey
no shit he won a championship
very convincing
this monkey's pretty good at skating yeah he's not bad
better than i ever was i i just don't know why like this is the right movie because bob
burnquist is in it it was in credit the is, they're doing so much work to explain these minor characters.
Everyone gets a shine, but we're going to watch him skateboard.
Yeah.
Oh, no.
Oh, he's going to rip this guy's balls off.
Yeah, he is.
You know how strong a chimpanzee is?
There's Hot Dog. Hot Dog. balls off yeah is yeah yeah strong a chimpanzee is there's hot dog
it's this guy I don't know oh shit through the legs I wonder if that's ever happened in the NHL.
I like the puck, Cam.
They just keep reusing the same celebration.
Him in the corner.
Look at all these women he's got.
I hate that. It's my favorite character.
My drill sergeant used to hit us in the head like that in basic training,
but he had a big metal stop sign that he would whack you with.
What?
I think the worst part of this is that the odor was correct.
He's Seattle's newest hero.
So this takes place in Seattle.
I wonder, my daughter is the world's biggest Grey's Anatomy fan.
And she was watching the, she was explaining to me how,
I don't know, all 19
seasons of it today in the car. I wonder if they exist
in the same universe in Seattle.
It's possible. Are you allowed to stand on the goal
in ice hockey? No.
No.
I mean, he's just cheating.
High five!
Yeah! Simeon's hammering the storm.
I like these bootleg Philly jerseys once again he does it again what the a great teammate. Get the bugs out of the back hair.
That looks like you without a shirt on, Gav.
Oh.
Oh. they're the same team like i don't
see you play nobody interviews like somebody on the lakers is like were you just chumped by lebron
james like that's not how this works.
We're all collectively trying to win.
Is,
does he have seven milkshakes?
Oh,
he absolutely does.
Double milkshake.
And he's lactose intolerant.
where are their parents i like i like adult like childish activities
I like adult, like, childish activities.
Yeah.
In, like, an adult kind of setting.
Like, they're playing poker or something,
but it's go fish because it's the only thing you understand at 10.
Yep.
Yeah.
And he had seven milkshakes make it a double.
It's all just very, like, it's cute.
I feel confident to say at this point,
this is just a great movie.
It's fantastic.
So you just rewatched MVP.
How does this compare?
Do you think it's better so far? This is way better.
This is so much better than the first one.
How much footage of this monkey skating did they get?
How many times did they make this chimp do that?
Well, it's the carjackers.
It's probably the same shoot, I'd assume.
It's the exact same team.
This is one of those hockey leagues
where they only play one other team all season.
Is that accurate, by the way?
Do the cheerleaders have to stand on the steps
because there's no way for them to stand?
No.
They typically have their own zone,
but most teams don't have cheerleaders anymore.
Oh, he's a dad, though.
Having a midlife crisis
because he's dropped down the depth chart
due to a monkey.
Oh.
But he sees that Jack
has a family, too.
I mean, if he hatched a plot
to deliver Jack back to where
he's from,
he would actually be the hero of the movie.
He would.
Don't be a bad guy.
Be a good guy.
Be a good guy.
Oh. I want to know what other movies this guy's done
I'm on it
Oliver was in MVP 2
you want to go for some milkshakes Oliver was in MVP 2.
Do you want to go for some milkshakes?
You're right.
Oh, wow.
You were right, Gavin.
Oh, my God, Gavin.
Are they wearing identical leather jackets?
No, slight differences.
Oh, my God. Slight differences. So why is he so pissed off about playing with a monkey on this team if he's pissed it off?
Ian Bagg, the comedian, is in this movie?
That's funny.
The kids are back.
Kids seem really pissed off to be in French Pelican
the uh
the guy that plays Rob
Rob Poirier
has been in 90 things
wow
he is still working
he's in a show called
Narco Leap right now
whatever the fuck that is
so much as many things
as Mr. Dr. Peabody
he's in a hundred things I've never
heard of, so they must all be Canadian,
I'm guessing.
Mm-hmm.
All the
teams clicking, Jack and Poirier
are friends, and everything's great.
Free bananas.
Unstoppable.
Looks like he's holding his dick.
Slurred out a figure skate.
Was that a guy in a chimp suit, do you think?
I think it was maybe Jack, but sped up.
I'm impressed. the extras going all out yeah even the goalies getting in on it because why not fuck it safe shot again
so the goalie has a goal
but that Poirier guy doesn't
is that what's happening
I think Poirier scored
I think he just came back
I think he's scoring
now that they're friends
when do you think
he starts skateboarding
I think soon
I'm gonna say within
the next 10 minutes
we're gonna get on a skateboard
how far
nature preserve
and El Simeon El Simeon.
Yeah.
What if it's just a box of cash?
Another game against the carjackers.
Another money-saving game.
Oh, but he's got a plan.
Eric's favorite character has a plan.
Uh-oh.
They're sick of losing.
Oh. They're sick of losing. Are they going to send him to skateboarding?
This is how I remember the movie opening.
We could have just died here.
We could have.
I said... Oh. we could have just died here we could have said oh
oh
like the first movie
the pucks is kind of around the net everyone's all tied up
watch out jack
look out
oh my god
shit out oh my god shit so he's gonna say
Jack bit him but it's just ketchup
what's going on Jack's like, no.
Is biting a penalty in hockey?
Yeah, it would be a penalty,
but you wouldn't get thrown out of the league for it.
Are you aware of anybody biting anybody else
in the history of the NHL?
Yeah.
There was Alex Burrows bit a player while on the knucks.
He got a penalty.
They're taunting.
Look how well he skates.
It happened on...
And not only has it happened in the NHL, Jeff,
it happened in this arena.
It happened on this week.
So Jack's not the first person to bite somebody in hockey.
He predated Burroughs,
but yeah.
It's happened.
I feel like he's paying a heavier penalty than Burroughs probably did.
Oh, definitely. Undeniably.
Everybody turns on him.
He's sad. Poor fucking Chip.
He was the hero of Seattle.
Boy, Chip. He's sad. Poor fucking Chimp. He was the hero of Seattle. That boy, Chimp.
God, think about what you're doing, audience.
Monkeys and animals.
Oh.
Oh Oh it's the
The henchman in the first movie
That's with right next to the coach
His assistant coach was the assistant villain
Oh
Let me see
Nah we'll never
See him again.
Good.
It's good.
Jack doesn't want... Jack doesn't want this.
He's hurt.
Yeah, he's hurt.
He's been unfairly maligned.
So Jack just leaves
and is now homeless.
In Seattle.
It's Seattle.
Looks really comfortable for him to walk in those shoes
Damn, that's the way Jack walks is how I walk in the morning when I get out of bed
My arthritis is fucking in full effect. He walks like the world is covered in Lego. Yeah, that's me walking to take a piss at 630
in the morning.
I just love that he doesn't go home.
He just decides to live in the streets.
Well, he's fucking... He's probably got a lot of self-loathing going on, you know?
And he doesn't quite understand.
That's fair.
He did something...
People think he did something wrong,
but he doesn't know what he did wrong
because he didn't really bite anybody.
This sucks. People think he did something wrong, but he doesn't know what he did wrong because he didn't really bite anybody. Ugh.
Sucks.
I want to know where he thinks he's from.
What the fuck?
BFI.
Okay, but that looks really
comfy
yeah
and now
he just went right
oh he just passes
him
well let this be a
lesson to anybody
watching this film
us included
if you lose a
chimpanzee in the
city check the
trash cans check the trash cans.
Check the dumpsters.
A lot of use out of that space needle.
Mm-hmm.
Oh, no. Oh, shit.
Jack!
What are they doing?
Stealing it?
Yeah, I guess. why are they stealing it I yeah
so they're not actually
going to empty the trash can
they're just going to drive down
that's the most inefficient trash emptying company
in the world they do them one by one
he's loving it
he's having a great time.
The building in the alley is going to be pissed.
Here we go.
There's Bob Burnquist.
Something else for me to be really good at.
Mm-hmm.
Dun, dun, dun.
Oh, shit!
He's back!
Channeling his dick van dyke i like this is the second time he's held a wanted poster with jack on it but as different characters
okay to printing okay i was gonna say what what is that business when someone says hot off the presses i don't expect them to literally mean it
what did that kid go there for to check in to hang oh that's how he makes money yeah he just
works there yeah well he's homeless, Gavin.
You gotta use two pieces of tape. That's not gonna
stay long. This kid's not gonna keep his job.
Staples is a good move.
Yeah, that's better. Oh, more than one, though.
This kid. You don't know what he's doing.
She looks like she skates.
Is that?
That's the home improvement guy.
It's Richard Karn.
It's Richard Karn, right?
Yeah.
Classic skateboard guy, Dick Karn I like that he even drinks
out of a skateboarding coffee mug
yeah hell yeah
give me that world industries mug
attention to detail Oliver Plant.
Great acting.
Well, I mean, he's a great actor.
Mm-hmm
Hell yeah
Do you feel like they cut to a close-up there because he can stack yeah, oh definitely I
Don't even know well, I guess yeah, he could skate. I'd be surprised if you kickflip there we go he's let
nah I mean he he seems to know what he's doing I mean yeah more than I ever did I feel like every kid in the world can skate that well.
Is this downtown Seattle?
Like, where does this fit?
This is where the kids with families live.
Family street?
Jack is gonna walk and see a bunch of monkey families
doing the same thing.
Like, grilling bananas in the front yard.
I think I had that Quicksilver hoodie.
Yeah?
Yeah.
I hope you still do.
Try and find a picture.
It'd be an amazing find.
I feel like that guy's in a lot of stuff, but always as this character. As Seattle be an amazing find. I feel like that guy's
in a lot of stuff,
but always as that
character as Seattle's
finest.
Yeah.
Yeah, he looks like he
would have stopped
Macaulay Culkin at some
point.
He looks like Richard
Kine's stunt double.
Yeah.
Yeah. double yeah he's a big simmons fan
he actually is so that's an
Oakland
what I think
no that was real life
do you think that
Jeff
where's the simian animal preserve
at I think it's supposed to be in San Francisco.
So I was close when I said Oakland.
No, you confused a thing from a movie with a real life thing.
Well, I'm just saying the Simian animal sanctuary is supposed to be in Oakland or wherever,
but it doesn't look like it.
I don't know.
I'm just wondering where they filmed it.
Wait, it's supposed to be in Oakland?
I don't think it is.
In the first movie, they mentioned it was in San Francisco or Oakland.
I remember that.
I paid attention to the presentation.
I don't think that was in the presentation.
I thought you were saying that the real monkey went to Oakland.
Yes.
Oh, yeah.
The real monkey went to Oakland.
Yeah, the real monkey ended up in Oakland.
That's the confusion.
I still
think I'm supposed to believe that that place is somewhere
in California. Apparently
San Francisco.
Is that
Aaron Carter?
Or Ryan...
What's the name
of that young skateboarder? Sheckler?
Ryan Sheckler. Is that Ryan Sheckler?
I doubt it. Let's see.
I think it might be young Ryan Sheckler.
Oh, it's a monkey board.
Oh, I know this song.
This is a band called Death on Wednesday.
It's a 90s
epitaph
or Fat Records punk band.
Airquake.
That's actually a pretty good song.
I think
that kid is a professional skateboarder.
I'm looking.
I think that's Sheckler.
So what's the deal this guy's trying to make with this kid?
He's going to give it to him if something happens?
I don't know.
I think he knows this kid can't afford a skateboard thing,
so he's just going to put this thing in the dumpster,
and the kid can have it.
Oh.
Ah.
Yeah.
That's probably a cameo.
It's like Chad Musker or something.
I just don't know.
He's uncredited.
I'm looking at a skateboarding appearance Tyler Vince Jordan
Hoffett Nathan Lacoste and Rob
Boyce
don't see any
well Burnquist is in this so you'd think
yeah yeah he's listed as Burnquist though
the squeak in the shoe always gets oh wait kid number one at skateboard place danny hag or haig huh okay Oh. Oh. Oh. Never mind.
Neil Nellis, Ryan Sheckler.
There you go. Oh, I was gonna say.
He just had a name. That character has a name,
I guess, so we'll see him again. Yeah, Ryan Sheckler.
Is this a lifeguarding movie?
I think the thing
to learn about this is chimpanzees are
multifaceted.
And they can't be put into a box
unless that box is a dumpster.
So Allie doesn't mean my status.
That's me in five years. that's where he lives
Richard Kine's name is
Ollie
yeah his name's
Oliver Plant
I think it's supposed to be two
skateboarding references
yeah I think it's supposed to be two skateboarding references. Yeah.
A little freaking tech deck thing.
Those were great.
I love those.
I didn't like the feel of the grip on my fingertips.
Really? Yeah.
Were you ever able to do a trick with them?
Nah, I was dog shit.
Yeah, I was terrible too.
Aww.
His mom.
That's his Louie.
That is his Louie.
Who's paying the electricity bill?
I'm glad you're here to ask the hard-hitting questions oh dude louie's the monkey louie or sorry the chimpanzee louie was played by louie
oh checks out as himself yeah he played by himself different louie though once again
space needle i can't believe the first half an hour of this skateboarding movie
was about hockey
well he had to tie up some loose ends
from the first movie
had to show him getting
drafted that's what I like about these movies
is they focus in on the details
that don't matter at all
they really invest in them
much like MVP1 he wakes up to
discover a sport that he likes I don't know if he likes skateboarding yet I
guess we haven't seen that you can always tell in a cheap movie a set
that's been painted for the movie and that that is what we are looking at here
you weren't buying a book on the bottom of that pool no I'm not buying the bug
I'm not buying the mug. I'm not buying the walls.
Fucking Jack wears Etnies.
I love it.
Jack proves.
You feel like the kid bails and then Jack gets the skateboard how's he gonna get on this board
hmm yeah he's gonna have to stack it somewhere
so
so
so I gotta say, I don't know how anybody could think Jack could bite anyone.
That monkey has the...
Sorry, that chimpanzee has the kindest face.
Yeah, but I think they do constantly bite people and rip people's penises off.
In real life, yeah.
This isn't real life.
This is movie Seattle.
It's a totally
different magical world.
What if this kid
also had a connection
to a hepatitis lab?
Yeah.
It's a magical world
where this kid
is on the streets
and not on heroin.
And everyone's
chugging milkshake.
Yeah.
Now, Andrew... Is this stealing the film?
Yes.
You saw this movie,
and you were inspired
to learn how to skateboard because of Jack.
Was it because you thought if the monkey did it, I could do it?
Or was it because you thought if I learned how to skateboard, I could get a monkey friend who will come and skateboard with me?
No.
So I think we're going to see, I assume within this scene, why I believe that I could instantly skateboard.
I like the idea of learning to skateboard to get the monkeys.
This is how I'm skateboard to get the monkeys. To get the monkeys.
This is how I'm going to get a friend.
Step one.
Buy a skateboard.
That was the smallest bite of a banana I've ever seen.
I feel you're qualified to make that judgment, too.
Thank you.
I've eaten a few.
Bananas I can eat right now.
They're soft.
See, Jack is like, I'm going to lick this wheel.
I don't even know what this is he's like sure fucking throw your board
see ya
oh god it's so impressive and so sad at the same time yeah it was at this moment I thought I could skateboard.
I always wanted to teach Henry how to ride a skateboard,
but Emily was not having it.
That would have been great.
I think you gotta start young
with that kind of stuff.
Yeah.
That makes sense.
I was always annoyed
that I couldn't skateboard.
Really? Yeah. I was always annoyed that I couldn't skateboard. Really?
Yeah.
I was always annoyed
I couldn't skateboard better.
Like, what they're doing now,
on that, like,
if you said go down that ramp
and end up at the bottom
of that pool on it,
I could not do it.
If I offered you $1,000,
you couldn't do it.
I couldn't do it.
I would try.
Oh, there's zero...
I could teach you how to do it
in five minutes.
There's nothing hard about that.
No, I would... I'm just immediately going to
Gavin a does it do falling
trying to push you, Jeff.
You saw me trying to run with
sticky shoes on.
Yeah, you with wheels, I guess it's not.
I'll be honest with you.
You don't look comfortable on a bicycle either.
Now that I think about it.
Well, the freaking brakes are the wrong way
for a start. Are we breaking in so what are we doing oh the garbage the ollies back at ollies
can you imagine being thrown into the streets
because somebody thinks that you bit someone
but needing to be like morally clear
that they're not stealing?
Like it's the same.
So did he walk out of the ice hockey place
like 10 seconds before they checked that guy's hand?
I get, yeah, like what investigation are they doing because it was ketchup
there's not it wasn't the deepest move are we buying this guy's hair is that real
so that's a good question what when did this came out in 2001? So what was he doing in his career at that moment?
Probably Family Feud,
or this is probably right before he was doing Family Feud, right?
Oh, he did?
Yeah, I forgot about that.
Thousand.
He was...
When did Home Improvement end?
Oh, you know what?
He was also in Air Bud's seventh inning fetch.
So he might be all over this world.
Dude, this director is loyal to his
cast.
Home Improvement was on from
91 to 99. So this was his follow
up to Home Improvement.
He was in.
Yeah. Yeah.
Dang. Is that Gatorade?
What is that? I wonder what that feels like.
It is Gatorade. I've never seen a Gatorade
bottle look like that. I wonder what it feels like it is Gatorade I've never seen a Gatorade bottle look like that I wonder what it feels like
to film
nine years of
a major television show
one of the one of the most
successful comedies on TV for the
nine years it was on and then to follow it up
with a straight to video monkey
skateboard movie
man fuck entertainment skateboard movie.
Man, fuck entertainment.
Oh, he was also in Snow Buddies.
And Air Buddies.
Goddamn, Richard Carnes.
Same character?
Or is it like like, different?
Different characters, I think.
Okay.
He's all over the place with the animals.
These chips are honestly incredible.
Like, it's mind-blowing.
Yeah.
Hey, look, the Space Needle.
Should make a fucking Space Needle drinking game.
Yuppers.
Duppers.
Louie also wears etnies. I'd love to know what that guy's voice actually sounds like
do you think
British chimps take their shoes off in the house
do you think if British chimps
come in from the rain they put their stuff in the warming
closet in from the rain, they put their stuff in the warming closet. The airing cupboard.
Why bring that? That kid has no idea what he's doing or why he's there.
I mean, I think you could ask
that kid if he remembers working on this movie
and he would say no. The disappointment on that
kid's face is generally because he didn't get to
have a scene with the chimp
Huh
So he's having none of this bullshit. Awesome.
I like his little duck jacket.
His little wellies.
The monkey can spell, but
it's Ned from the
first movie.
That's actually where he lived.
That guy's not alive, right?
He just drives that truck from movie set to movie set.
Like, y'all need an old guy?
He's actually on the way to old school right now.
He's like, I just tore the country playing bit parts.
He's trying to
grab the windshield
wipers
you know that
wasn't in the script
but it was so cute
they left it in
I don't think
that actor knows
he's in a movie
I think they
performed him later
pretty good bowls
why are they getting
this fresh milk
is that dumpster milk
yeah they throw they throw good stuff away it's not stealing there's milk. Is that dumpster milk? Yeah.
They throw good stuff away.
It's not stealing.
There's no better milk than dumpster milk.
Oh, he makes money.
He probably bought the milk.
He's got a little fridge in there.
I forgot.
He does the flyer thing.
So far, he's not been very vertical.
No.
I feel like we have seen that alleyway nine different ways.
Definitely.
Oh.
You know, Gavin,
if you never picked up that high speed camera
from your neighbor
this is who you would be right now
me right now age 34
I think I could become a scarf guy
like a woolly jumper and scarf man
oh I could see a scoff guy. Like a woolly jumper and scoff man. Oh, I could see you. Yeah, definitely.
Inappropriate.
Awesome.
He's a fucking cool guy.
I gotta say, so far, I think this movie is better than The Tuxedo.
I think it is a way better movie than The Tuxedo.
I mean, this alone.
Are we about to get vertical?
I think it's about to become vertical.
I think we're about to go vertical.
I love this fucking soundtrack.
Jesus.
I remember being so excited watching this as a kid.
Like, I legitimately couldn't do any of this.
Oh, no.
I learned I couldn't.
Are the shoes, like, drilled into the skateboard?
Yes, they are.
This is crazy.
This is death on Wednesday again.
Why was it?
This is so good.
I hit the camera there
I'm gonna buy everybody a copy of this album
So you can all take MVP2 with you
Wherever you go
Sounds great
I like to imagine the other
The camera guy also on a skateboard
This must look so funny from a behind the scenes perspective
Oh
He did that He did that just this must look so funny from a behind the scenes perspective oh he did
that he did that and they're not even like pulling on string he's like doing
this dude fucking look back like a cool-ass monkey right there
see this is him after like one day of practice.
I was like, oh, I got this.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
That looks so uncomfortable.
If you could have...
Be exactly like you are now.
In every way.
Except you had the equivalent of human monkey hand feet.
Would you take them?
Monkey feet?
Yeah, like he's got...
He's essentially got hands for feet.
Yeah.
Absolutely, I would.
I think I would too.
yeah absolutely i think i would too
why would he care the wrong person ducked he's like i gotta lay off the milkshakes i'm starting to see stuff.
Why is there all this skating equipment in this alley?
That's how grunge started, Gavin.
Like a bolted down rail? Oh yeah, it's just like
Seattle was just like one big skate park.
I hope the homeless
guy moved. He was annoyed before.
What if he moved to this alley?
I'm not buying that that kid could reach the fire escape ladder.
I really like that he left hockey hurt
and is now just continuing to stay in this lifestyle
because he's a
skate monkey now he loves him did they make a skate in game because that would
have been awesome I was this now they'd chip ever a character in Tony Hawk or
anything no that would be great
mmm gotta go Gotta go.
This is who we have
protecting our streets
in America.
He's all tuckered out
from that half a block.
Oh, we're still at Ned and Louie.
This is my favorite character. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah.
It's okay, man. I'm allowed to break in
or I'm a poor scientist
where's the shit
there's a What notes?
Oh no.
Oh no.
Padlock still works, huh?
Yep.
padlock still works huh yep
hit it with his unlocking stick
oh
that was what I looked like when I tried.
I feel like Jack could probably run faster.
Ah, shit.
Does that ever happen to you, Jeff?
Have I ever snapped a board in half?
Yeah.
Yeah, of course.
How long does a skateboard last?
And that's what I did afterwards, too.
I fucking took my helmet off and cried.
It depends on how you skate with it.
A skateboard can last forever,
but if you're...
If you don't grind stuff.
If you're grinding
and doing rail slides and shit,
you're going to snap it sooner or later.
Also, the longer a skateboard exists,
the more...
I don't know.
The less pop it has,
the more brittle it becomes.
At some point,
you just want to trade out a skateboard anyway
because it's just past its useful date.
It's expired Best Buy.
Okay. see that's what I told you
I should have just waited
before I asked that
man I'm excited for them to get their little asses
down to earthquake whatever it's called
Jack's like fuck you loser
I'm out
He walks just like Jack
You're not wrong
Watching this kid and this monkey walk around like this
It makes me finally feel represented
I love the way
he gets into shit
I'm glad they inserted that they actually didn't know they were in a movie
they were just buying it was just a dad and his kid
buying a skateboard
they were so shocked when they went back the next
week and it was just no longer a business
everyone's gone and they're like was I in a
fucking movie
all these
closed down

you you you you you you you you Do you feel that this guy represents
skateboard shop owners, Jeff, in your experience?
How accurate of a portrayal?
This is who...
This is who...
This is going to sound so mean.
But Richard Card in this movie is who
Major League fan Jack would be in a different career.
This would be
this is who I see owning that skateboard shop.
Jack Petillo in a
different with like four different decisions
made in his life.
I bet he'd be good at it.
Hell yeah, he'd be good at it. Richard
Card is good at it.
at it.
Hell yeah, he'd be good at it.
Richard Karn is good
at it.
It's a monkey board.
Say thanks.
Say thanks or
anything.
Say thanks.
Nope.
Sure, I guess.
Oh, that thing has
pop.
Look at the pop.
Oh, that is. That's Look at the pop. Oh, that is...
That's probably all Ryan Sheckler.
I have a hard time believing that this child went on to make 98 things.
The other actors.
That's the worst reaction I've ever seen.
Well, you got like one toe in each mousetrap.
Yeah.
They had to bring the fucking World Industries coffee mug over from the skate shop. Oh, this is creepy.
Yeah.
His name's Ben?
Have we heard?
Yeah, I was about to say, have we heard his name yet?
I was literally about to ask what the kid's name is.
I had no idea. You I don't see this what is this kid's name
Ben
he's not listed as top cast in the movie
Jesus
reporter 2 and 3 are, though.
What the fuck?
Ben is Scott Goodman.
And he...
Oh.
He was only in this movie.
He was in this.
He was in this and the behind the scenes featurette
checks out probably got a normal he's probably a similar age to me he got a normal job except he
could say i was the lead role in a monkey movie and that's all i did in the film industry
the one piece of trivia for him is uh did you know he attends Lakewood high school in Lakewood,
California,
and will be entering his senior year.
Still going.
Oh God.
The monkey's driving.
Oh no.
Louie's driving now.
He's 35 now.
Yeah.
It's probably not still in high school okay drink
is this great skate quake day
I'm so excited for the tournament
right I mean yesterday Is this Skatequake Day? I'm so excited for the tournament.
I'm great.
That's like me yesterday.
I don't feel like this is Jack's portrayal of this movie at all. This feels disconnected
hmm okay cut
I kind of like that they've ended up in Seattle by mistake
how is he sitting lower than the chimp?
He was driving.
Oh,
carjackers are back.
How are the carjackers in the finals?
They lost four fucking games to the Simeon. Yeah.
Andrew, can I ask you a question?
Yeah, of course.
Do you... I don't want to know the answer
because I want to be surprised,
but do you remember how this whole thing ends?
How it shakes out?
No, I have no idea.
So it's kind of like watching it for the first time.
It is, yeah.
This is essentially like watching it for the first time.
I have no memory of the ending.
We could be in a situation
where Louie becomes a hockey player
and Jack keeps skating.
That might be a situation we're about to get into.
Yeah, I think we're about to see this.
He doesn't look like Jack, though.
No.
No.
He looks great
for sure
do you think Louie is like
lady from the animal sanctuary
sorry all you humans look alike to me
oh no
oh no so was he suspended what was the review Oh no.
Oh no.
So was he suspended?
What was the review?
Was the investigation?
Was there a penalty?
Oh no! Oh no!
Oh for God's sake!
He fucking
sucks, that's what's wrong.
He hasn't had all the training from the first movie.
Oh, that's Ian Bagg.
Okay.
The...
The blonde dude?
The Eastern European guy?
Yeah, he's a stand-up comedian.
Okay.
He's an enforcer.
All the Louis on ice scenes are my favorite.
He threw his gloves down like a real player there. He just wants to go.
He wants to eat the octopus. Do you think they had to find a chimp that they hadn't taught skating to?
Yeah.
Or did they have to teach him to be shit?
I feel like probably teach them to be shit or like just instruct them to not
respond.
Louie's going to kill somebody.
Yeah.
In the two team hockey league,
there are members of.
Airquake!
It's pretty high up. Sound effects are so good.
Jeff, did you ever drop in from higher than that?
I have never dropped in from higher than that Uh I have never dropped in
From higher than like 8 feet
Oh okay
Did you see what happened when Dan did it
I did he broke his fucking arm
And then I watched
Tony Hawk make fun of him later on another video
Well to be fair Dan
Farted on him
Well good
Tony Hawk was really nice Well, to be fair, Dan farted on him. Well, good.
Tony Hawk was really nice.
Okay. This guy needs to be playing it like 25% less creepy, I think. Yeah. yeah
is this the same band Jeff?
no I think this is a band called Junction 18
if I'm
if I'm correct.
I want to know where Red Sunglasses guy is.
Oh, that's
the other henchman.
He was the henchman of the first movie. Is Jack going to win a skate competition
and then go win a hockey championship
in the same afternoon?
I mean, only one of us would know. you sheckler
oh yeah
how old is Ryan Sheckler now
well let's see
he is
32 years old
wow is 32 years old. Wow.
Do you just go until you fall?
No.
Ben. Ben Johnson
Jackson Popcorn World
he does not
nothing else exists right now
yeah that was yeah I love that he doesn't
question Jack like just
being there that he's
just cool with it he's
just riding out that
yeah they're a package
deal I'm not going to
report that this chimp
is just existing in this world.
Better be scared to death, you little homeless nerd.
Man, I could not do that.
No.
I couldn't believe that Dan did it.
I couldn't do it in my 40s. I can't believe Dan tried it at his age.
I mean, like, with his level of experience,
that's a really...
That's a big deal.
That's like three or four foot of straight vert down.
What we didn't show in the video
is the 40 minutes of everyone trying to talk about doing it.
Including Tony Hawk.
Oh.
Jack's gonna be like the ice.
Yeah, he's gonna show him it's okay.
I wonder how much of this movie was subsidized
by Etni's, Thrasher, and World Industries.
Don't fall for it, kid.
Just because Jack can do it doesn't mean you can
do you think maybe you would have been a better skater if jack had believed in you too
i think so i mean that was what was missing
now we're back to death on Wednesday.
Okay.
Is this the same song that was playing in the background?
Yeah, it's the same Death on Wednesday song over and over again.
Okay, yeah.
I'm pretty sure.
The road of love.
Whoa.
It's pretty vertical.
Would you say the most vertical?
No, there was a monkey in a tree earlier that was way more vertical.
Dude, I'd love to be able to ollie a gap like that whoa There's no reporter in that shot I love Louis so much
Yeah I gotta say Louis kind of steals the movie
Louis is great
He's just coming at you.
This guy's hairline is receding between scenes.
Like, can we wrap this movie up fast?
Bob Birdquist!
Wow.
Hell yeah.
Wow. hell yeah wow it's the shittiest belt I've ever seen
Neil Nellis
that's Ron Sheckler
there you go
Neil
congratulations Neil Nellis. That's Ron Sheckler. There you go. Neil. Congratulations.
Oh my God.
Now he doesn't have to be homeless anymore.
He won the movie.
Isn't that how movies work?
He got $1 thousand dollars and a dad
thanks Bob
hey everyone
this is my kid
that I just met.
That's not a reason to adopt a child.
I don't think you get to decide that, son.
Yeah, I think Jack gets a say as well right
oh
that's the best thing
this would be such a good
journey for 30
do you think it's
ZHL stands for
Zamboni Hockey League
yes
get on the skateboard
it's faster
it's fine
cut him some slack, dude.
He's got arthritis in his lower spine.
It hurts.
Somebody should sponsor
fucking Bob Perkins
for some acting lessons.
Jesus.
I think this might be
Bob Bergquist's only movie as well.
Coincidentally.
I think this might be Bob Bird Quest's only movie as well, coincidentally.
Oh.
Now we get to see what a professional skateboarder looks like.
It's so much better.
What do you mean?
It looks the same as when the monkey does it. Yeah.
What's the Jeff could you do that
no
no
no but I never
really liked
vert skating to begin
with
yeah
there you go
the burn twist
yeah liked vert skating to begin with yeah there you go the burn twist hey i'm really curious about what's happening at the hockey game can we go to that instead
we need to watch bob burgers do the same trick eight more times
i wonder if he was if he was offered the game like the Tony Hawk game and this at the same time
Which he would have viewed as more profit oh wow
Say more lines
Damn Please escort Damn.
Police escort.
So does this cop know about the other chimp?
No.
Well, I guess he's been following the game, so he must.
Ha ha ha! Ha ha ha! this scene rules
yeah
yeah
on the low
no you never step on the logo
hockey 101 what are they doing
step on the logo. Hockey 101.
What are they doing?
Wait. They are? they are
wonder how many members of the cast these chimps outlived
well him definitely him
that is a good question how many people that were involved in in this film were dead
involved in this film are dead.
You gotta get Simeon's jerseys.
I mean, it was 21 years ago, right?
22 years ago?
Woohoo!
Oh, they made it?
Did someone in the crowd just throw a duvet?
I mean, they weren't losing that badly.
It looked like it.
I noticed that too.
I've never seen a blanket at a hockey game.
Whoa. What? uh That guy's dead though. Yeah
I think it was his gum but oh
oh oh
so this is a hockey movie
I guess
I think it's hard to argue
it's more skateboarding than hockey
I'd say yeah it's more horizontal
yeah
did they feel like
they had to make it
a hockey movie for it to make sense?
Well, here's the deal
We don't know how this
how this story was written
This might have been planned out from the beginning
Like it's, for all we know
it was written as a trilogy and they just never got to make the third movie
Mmm Mmm from the beginning. Like it's for all we know, it was written as a trilogy and they just never got to make the third movie.
Hmm.
If I was a younger man with more time on my hands,
I would write MVP fan fiction.
I would expand the universe.
I would tell more stories.
Eric,
could you there? The guy that wrote this movie has a Twitter thread
about the process of making it that's fantastic.
Could you look that up, please?
Yeah, it's really funny.
I don't remember what it was, but it is absurd.
What do I even search for that?
Just look up the IMDb for who wrote it
and then maybe search his name
and MVP to thread or something like that.
It's great. I should
have pulled that up.
They did it!
Brr!
This is more excited than real athletes
are when they win the championship.
This is fantastic.
Same celebration.
Is this a better movie than MVP 1?
Way better.
This might be the best movie I've seen this year.
Yeah, I would agree with you there.
It's a better movie in every way
with a better cast and more cameos
and it was straight to DVD.
Is he a good comedian?
I've never seen his stand-up.
I've just heard him on podcasts.
He's a pretty funny dude.
His name is Ian Bagg. Oh, okay.
It just looks like the Stanley Cup.
That's great.
I want to find out what happened with the investigation.
None of those guys read hockey looking at them no here i put a for later i put a youtube video
on
fucking better Fucking better.
Better. so weird
it's so creepy
monkey's not here
to protect you now
wait so this guy drove them back
yeah
what
I think he just drives right up
to their sanctuary
let him in
just pull it up next to their favorite tree it won't freak him out at all
the address
tree 6 El Sime, El Simeon, El Simeon.
Wow.
What a movie.
Incredible stuff.
Okay, in comparison to that,
Dunstan Checks In
is a good, good movie. No, that's way better than Dunstan Checks In is a good, good movie.
No, that's way better than Dunstan Checks In.
Are you serious?
No way, dude.
Dunstan Checks In is a way better movie than MVP 2.
And I liked MVP 2,
but you are selling Dunstan Checks In short.
I didn't like it.
Jason Alexander, incredible in Dunstan.
I don't know.
I feel like...
Doorknobs in the middle of the doors, incredible. I don't want to get like door knobs in the middle of the doors incredible
I don't want to get too
single threaded with this whole thing
but I do feel like we need to watch Dunstan now
at some point yeah I think you're right
I really do so
the thing that Andrew glad that
took nine months to watch
the thing that Andrew
asked for
I found the thread of the guy who wrote MVP 2,
and I've linked it in our chat.
He talks a lot about like,
the monkey did his own stunts and he loved doing it.
You couldn't smile at the monkey.
The most interesting part to me
is that this guy didn't know anything about hockey.
The first MVP is all about hockey,
and the plan was the same for the sequel.
Changing up the main sport happened
because I know so little about hockey,
but I was into skate culture as a teen,
so I pitched switching hockey to skateboarding
to keep the franchise fresh.
I'd never written a movie before,
so I modeled my script on Pulp Fiction.
What?
Oh my god.
They hired a guy to write a sequel to a hockey movie
who didn't like hockey and had never written a movie.
Where is
the similarity to Pulp Fiction
in any way whatsoever?
He modeled it after
the runtime.
My first draft was 134
pages. Which equals 134 pages,
which equals 134 minutes.
The director referred to it as war and peace with chimps.
Jeff,
remember when you're talking about the,
the bowl,
like the,
the pool or whatever.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He has a tweet about it in the script.
I wrote that the orphan kid lives in an abandoned swimming pool that he uses as a
skateboard,
but they couldn't find a pool that worked. So they painted an actual skateboard to look like an abandoned swimming pool that he uses as a skateboard, but they couldn't find a pool that worked,
so they painted an actual skateboard
to look like an old swimming pool.
Yeah.
The reverse.
That was pretty fucking clear there.
So like, was the dumpster like the briefcase
in Pulp Fiction?
I like...
I like that you couldn't smile at the monkey.
Yep.
He's great. He's a great actor, but if you smile at him, he'll rip your fucking the monkey. Yep. He's great.
He's a great actor, but if you smile at him, he'll rip your fucking face off.
Just don't do it.
We did it.
We watched the monkey movie, guys.
So how do we feel about Dunstan?
Is that worth doing?
I think so.
At some point.
Maybe in March.
I mean, I'd be honest.
I love doing this supplemental content, and I wish we did it more often.
I feel like that's, it's hard, like,
shooting myself in the foot by saying that
because it ensures that we won't do it again
for another four years.
But, like, I can do these pretty regularly,
and I feel like enough movies come by our way
that are funny and interesting enough
that we could justify it.
I'm not saying Dunstan should be the next movie,
but I do think it should be a movie.
Yes, I completely agree with that.
I like Monkey March, too.
It's just as an idea.
Oh, now that's interesting.
Monkey March.
Maybe do a monkey movie a week in March.
Yeah, yeah, we'll do one movie a week.
Yeah, that's what we'll do.
I also got to say,
after watching MVP 2 and your MVP 1 synopsis,
I no longer want to watch MVP 1.
100%.
No, there's no reason to.
Yeah, I feel like it cannot possibly hold up to what I just saw.
Ooh, I think I have a movie recommendation for Monkey March, which isn't a real thing, but might become a real thing.
Let me find a trailer quickly.
I don't even know if this is part of it.
Should we wrap this up?
I definitely think we should. Yeah, but I want to see this trailer you're talking about okay give me a second let me
pull it up i'll drop it in it's uh it's the follow-up to this movie but it's not specifically
related i showed this to eric before i've never seen this movie i've had it recommended a lot by people in the audience. It's a film called Spy Mate.
It's a James Bond like movie with Richard Kind as the main villain of the film.
Also starring a young Emma Roberts.
Oh, yeah, that's right.
I'm a spy man.
I just dropped in our chat.
All right.
Watch this one minute trailer. I think Louie,
the chip that played Louie in the movie
is also in this one as the main character.
Only on DVD.
It's like they're bragging
about that out the gate.
Oh wow.
Good lord.
We're flying.
Move over, James Bond.
Move over, parody of James Bond.
Got sword fighting.
Kick some guy guy fold out skateboard
is that
is that Mr. Miyagi
is that Pat Morita
I don't know
I think they definitely
want you to think that
spy mate that looks awesome it looks
fantastic 2006 why wouldn't we watch that i think it has to go on the list when did real chimps get
hoisted out of the movie industry i don't know relatively recently i think right or like what yeah are
we talking any type of monkey because you think like the hangover had a had a real monkey in it
bubbles i believe that one is called i just looked up when did we stop doing chimp movies
and it is a pita article from 2020 saying a decade ago there were at least a dozen chimpanzees
working in Hollywood.
There are officially
no more chimpanzees in Hollywood
as of July 2020.
Okay.
So yeah, it's very recent.
That's great.
Horses, though, still fine.
That movie, Spymate,
has Barry Bostwick in it,
Richard Kind in it,
Pat Morita, and Emma Roberts.
And Louie, the monkey. What a... And Louis the monkey.
What a fucking cast.
I can't wait to watch it.
I can't wait to watch it either.
Well, there you go, audience.
I hope you enjoyed
this watch-along of
MVP2 Most Valid...
Sorry.
Most Vertical Primate.
I want to make sure I get that right.
And hopefully you will tune in
sometime in the near future
for
Spy... 2003's Air Bud Entertainment Presents Spymate.
He's a spy and he's a primate.
Spymate.
And then sometime in the distant future, maybe in Monkey March, we will watch Dunstan Checks in.
Thank you for your time.
