Starting point is 00:00:32 See you there. How Did This Get Made? In 2020, Girls Rule, American Pie 9, was released on home video. And in that movie, there is more heart, humanity, and normal behavior that is identified as human than in whatever the fuck we just watched. We saw a beautiful wedding, so you know what that means.
Starting point is 00:01:25 So you know what that means. They live big Paul and the booth of June Gonna take you from the pool while the waves are rolling Renegades the street fighter hope to blow off steam Just a sucker plus the odd lights are tipping to gray Shot me in the bird demig, how you standin' alive? They call me when they're badass and he's on the line Crankin' eight gate limits cause they cool as ice Cause they're bad Jim Varnie lookin' kind of nice Paul and June gettin' literal, Jason is gettin' laid Julis make a show, all the monkey shots get the pain They're just a bunch of movies while they're makin' the grade We are live at Largo, continuing our exploration
Starting point is 00:02:05 into the two worst characters in cinema's history. I don't even remember their names. I think it's Abby and Jake. But if not, it doesn't make a difference. Him and her will do just fine. Movie came out in 2024. What is it? Well, it's a sequel to a movie that we did, which I like to call a rom-com fight club.
Starting point is 00:02:29 Now, at the end of that movie, there were these fun slides, like the end of The Hangover, that apparently were shot at the wrap party for that movie. And that's the basis of the sequel. The movie starts with those slides and goes what if? And here's the kicker, both of these movies based on a book by a really racist writer. So we won't get into that. We'll enjoy this because she's not involved in those movies at all. All you have to know is our two main characters, they fall in love, they get into multiple MMA fights,
Starting point is 00:03:11 there's gambling, there's mafia, and then they somehow go to Mexico, they're married. This all happens in three months and the girl's 19. Okay, so that's, that's that, I would say that the first act ends at minute 45, and it's an hour and 25 minute long movie. I won't talk more about it than that. We'll get into all of it. But first, let me introduce my co-host, Mr. Jason Manzougas. What's up jerks?
Starting point is 00:03:52 Come on Largo, night two. Netflix is a joke. Netflix is a joke festival. And you know what? Netflix is a joke festival said, can you do movies that are on Netflix? And we said, no. We said, we personally would rather pay for these movies.
Starting point is 00:04:17 We want- Sometimes, multiple times. We want our audience to be frustrated just like us. We will not make it easy on them. Correct me if I'm wrong, Paul. We've seen this movie before? No, we watched the first. Yeah, that's what I thought. A beautiful disaster, yes.
Starting point is 00:04:36 Yeah, I kind of remember it. I remember it quite clearly. Luckily, this movie has a full-blown recap of that movie in the first five minutes. Thank God. I remember. Did that movie had cartoon graphics on the screen? No, that's new. That's new for part two.
Starting point is 00:04:54 Part two really pulls out all the stops. It's Roger Rabbit meets Fritz the cat, which is an old reference, but I'm going to stand by it. You really are tired. Ah! I'm referencing Fritz the Cat. It's Roger Rabbit as you pick up stuff like, just like, bruh. What's in my bag?
Starting point is 00:05:15 It's Roger Rabbit, you're just plugging in specifics. You're just plugging nouns in. Well, you know what, I'm glad that it's just not us talking about the beautiful animation style of a beautiful wedding. No, no, no. We have somebody that is going to weigh in on all things. My other co-hosts, please welcome June Diane Rayfield.
Starting point is 00:05:38 Thank you so much. Welcome June. Hi Paul, how are you? I'm good. How are you? Angry. I'm so mad. I'm so mad.
Starting point is 00:05:58 You're so mad because you love the movie so much. The first thing, one of the first things I wrote down was, have we made any progress as a culture? Yeah. Just have we? And it wasn't even like progress since the first movie. I mean like, have we made any progress, you guys? Any? My question is, are these movies each an announcement of the impending apocalypse?
Starting point is 00:06:26 Is there, how many in this series? This is two, how many are there? Well, this just came out. Oh! So, hopefully three. Is it books? I did say there was a book. Okay.
Starting point is 00:06:38 You said book. Yes, and I'm not lying. Is A Beautiful Baby coming? Is it your book? It is not baby coming? Is it your book? It is not my book. Is it your book? It is not based on my book. Do you write these?
Starting point is 00:06:50 I did not. This is. Next one's called Beautiful Podcast. Here's what I'll tell you about this. And just to kind of put it in simple specifics. The way that Twilight spun off 50 Shades of Grey, there is another series of YA novels that are very successful. This is kind of the dirty alt version of them. Now the first... The books aren't dirty you mean? The books are
Starting point is 00:07:16 dirty. They are? Yes. So this is like this is the fan... what's the books it's based on? Does somebody know that one of the nerds here will know. No? I love that this audience doesn't know. I feel so safe. Did we accidentally get a cool audience? I'm so happy. Oh, no. This is gonna be a bad show. No nerd? Okay. Yes, thank you, nerd. Please. Alright, so explain it to me.
Starting point is 00:07:39 So I only know this because I just listened to the beautiful disaster episode. Got it. Much like everybody else to prep for this. Everybody watched. So I did go over some of these details in that one. You did. And what it actually is, is that Dylan Sprouse is in another series of YA movies called the
Starting point is 00:07:59 after series. Yes. And this is a parody of the after series. Those are based on Harry Styles fan fiction. Oh wait, that's the new... is that the new... that's the new Anne Hathaway movie? Um, no. No? That's a different Harry Styles fan fiction
Starting point is 00:08:17 that has spawned a successful film franchise? I have an answer for you now, June. We have not moved forward as a culture, and in fact, we are moving backwards. Put us in a grave, it's over. I listened to the trees from the happening and will be killing myself tonight. Goodbye! Just for brevity's sake,
Starting point is 00:08:41 the idea is that these are kind of the... First of all, the fact that there's any source material here is so absurd. I've been sitting on what I really want to say, which is this is based on a novella. So this is based... So this is based on a short book. Yes. The first movie based on a full book, this is based on a novella, and then this novella they really just didn't use at all.
Starting point is 00:09:07 So the third movie will be based on like a magazine article. A pamphlet. And the fourth movie based on a tweet. Now I will say this, a couple more details that are equally confounding about this. So they did put the author of the novella's name in the credits. She says, I am not involved in this! And she has tried to get her name out of the credits. What? Unsuccessfully. So they have said, we've done this with the author's input. She says, no!
Starting point is 00:09:49 So it's apparently a 24 page novella. And this is- Wait a minute. 24 page is not a novella, it's a short story. I'm so sorry. What? I can write that. I can write the next one of these by the Monday. Now- It's a chapter.
Starting point is 00:10:06 We gotta... The three of us have to write the next one. I don't want them to hear. I don't want them to steal the movie. I will tell you, they wrote another... Well, the author did continue to write this series, but spun it off. The spin-off series is about Travis' brothers.
Starting point is 00:10:27 So, uh... I was so flummoxed when those guys showed up. I was like, who the fuck are these idiots? Like, who shook loose a bag of potatoes into this movie? So... And I couldn't pick one out from the other. Couldn't make heads or tails out of them. One of them keeps looking into camera. So and I couldn't pick I couldn't pick one out from the other Tails out of them one of them keeps looking into camera
Starting point is 00:10:53 Fucker never been on a set before Wait a second. Are you telling me that the scene the hottest scene in cinema since Top Guns volleyball? the shirt this spike ball scene, the shirtless spikeball scene. Please play it. I wish I had... That scene was... I only wish they had put playing with the boys in the soundtrack.
Starting point is 00:11:14 They can't afford that. They did the high fives, they did all the tropes of Top Gun. And here's the thing. I'm not here to yuck anyone's yum. I'm not here to make fun of anyone's looks. But those guys are decidedly good looking. They're not jaw dropping like the beach stops at these dudes and their tight packages.
Starting point is 00:11:38 Like I don't know what's going on. Well you know they're all mad exes so they've all got that big hog. And I'm also like. They're all packin' that mad dicks. The way that they show one of those brothers dick bulge, I was like, it doesn't look sexy to me. It looks like something's wrong.
Starting point is 00:11:57 There is nothing. I wrote down at one point, I was like, I hate women. I hate men. Sex is gross. I hate men. Sex is gross. I hate it all. Yeah, I had that. I wrote that too. It's disgusting to me. And then I said, the only thing I'm attracted to
Starting point is 00:12:12 is the cartoon characters. Oh, my gosh. The cartoons were gross. The narrator's voice was gross. Who was the narrator? Real question. Who was the narrator? I think the narrator, I think, was the concierge. Sancho?
Starting point is 00:12:28 I think it was Sancho. I thought the narrator was the priest that was training the priest in training. Miguel? No, that's not Miguel. No, no, the priest training the priest in training. Oh, I see. So, he's like, Miguel's like, father, I know I've been training to be a priest,
Starting point is 00:12:43 but holy shit, let me tell you this story. And then the priest is like, you'll never guess what my priest in training told me. And then he's telling the pope. You're telling me the pope is a character in this movie? This movie is a story that we tell the pope. Oh, shit. Because he's like, it's so crazy, pope. Next movie, beautiful Vatican. Well, then they send Russell Crowe from the Pope's exorcist
Starting point is 00:13:08 to then dispose of Travis and Abby. How did this get made? How did this get made? All of this backstory and these crossovers and whatever's happening with these characters, none of it amounts to anything. This doesn't deserve any backstory or other movies or novellas. But what about when Abby says to Miguel,
Starting point is 00:13:28 what's your backstory? When she said that, I threw my pencil across the room. And then when we found out. I had to pick it up, but I still was just, I wanted the anger of that moment. But by the way. What's your backstory?
Starting point is 00:13:42 But his answer is devastating. His answer? And insane. Make no mistake, the most interesting character in the movie, Miguel. For sure. And at one point I was like, if we cut to this house one morning and there's like 15 dead bodies and they've been slaughtered, like it's Miguel. Because he grew up there.
Starting point is 00:14:02 He witnessed violence like something's gonna turn and he's gonna become so disgusted with the behavior that's going on in his childhood home and the disrespect that Miguel is gonna flip out and I wish I saw that movie. Let's go from the top. Obviously this movie starts off in the montage, the sideshow montage that we see at the end
Starting point is 00:14:26 of the first film where these characters are having a crazy night in Vegas. We start off the movie right where it left off. Only three days I think passed in six days. Six days. Okay. So yeah, it's very close. But enough time for them to make an Apple slideshow of all the photos from last night.
Starting point is 00:14:47 Oh, oh, I'm sorry. You mean in Vegas. Oh yeah, in Vegas. Oh, in Vegas. I mean, nothing has happened. Like no time since that is the last movie. Well, yes, but we pick up there in the beginning of this movie.
Starting point is 00:15:00 So just to talk about that slideshow for a second. So they had to, in their drunken stupor, make a slideshow. Do you think they're just- Oh, I gotta go to, I gotta, hold on, let me, hold on. Yeah, that's a good transition. Do you think they're just airplaying it to the TV? Like someone had to figure out settings.
Starting point is 00:15:15 Oh yeah. What wifi network? Someone had to- What wifi network? Someone's an iPhoto, like I said. And they had to do the thing where they're like, oh, the code, you have to get the code to send to the- Zero, one. Yeah, like most hotels- Only Google Chromecast? So like I said, And they had to do the thing where they're like, oh, the code, you have to get the code to send to the.
Starting point is 00:15:25 Yeah, like most hotels. Chromecast, how can I do my flat show? Most hotels won't let you do it. Most. And thank God all the pictures just happened to be from the night before. And in chronological order. And then we get the craziest reveal, which is
Starting point is 00:15:44 Abby has been straight up branded like a nexium victim... Uh, with her new husband's name in her inner, like, area right there. I mean, that's a full... In her area? Yeah, inner area. In her cum gutters? I don't like... I like that way to put it less.
Starting point is 00:16:05 I think that makes it sound grosser. Her inner area, it's not inside her labia. Just like in that... It's on her hip bone. I know they call it cum gutters on men, I didn't know what they call it for women. So, here... My god. So, here... Oh, my God. Ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha!
Starting point is 00:16:28 Ha ha ha ha! Whoo! Ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha! So, I think they're called cum gutters on men, but I think it's just squirt drainage on women. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:16:44 So, she's branded, she's married. They also conveniently give them like $189,000. Like what a great plot device. Be like, oh, and you got a shitload of money too. And they stole the money from the last movie. I do remember that. But then I had forgotten entirely that she is a child gambling prodigy.
Starting point is 00:17:09 Yep. Yes. And that's why, and he's a fight clubber. He is a fight clubber. And that's why in some ways. I wish he was Tyler Durden. I wish he was imaginary. Listen, in some ways though,
Starting point is 00:17:24 this movie made so much more sense to me than the last one. I was like. Oh wow, I feel the opposite. Really? I was like, what's the plot of this? The last one, I get it at least. No, you don't get it.
Starting point is 00:17:34 Call it drama con. No, no, no, you think you got it, but if you remember back to the time when we watched it, we had to find out that she was like a child prodigy. We found that out 50 minutes into the movie. Well, this movie- It was insane and her father, there was no record of her dad.
Starting point is 00:17:50 And then he was called, it was absolutely bananas. She's very like demure in the first movie and then opens up in this movie, she's full on insane. Like she's fighting children. She's cursing- I love that sequence. That sequence I loved. Oh my God. The whole sequence with Thumbelina. I thought it was great. I got that.
Starting point is 00:18:13 Perfect. I was like, this is wonderful. She's like, I will fight this child because I won't hurt her as bad as another person might. Her thinking is, who would... Somebody's gonna hurt this little girl. I'll go in there. I just need a costume cut to sexy cat costume? By the way, I do want to just talk about the worst costume in the entire movie, which is, again, back to the opening scene.
Starting point is 00:18:39 Oh, I know what you're gonna say. She, within the first two minutes, Abby pukes on Travis, vomits on him. He does not change out of that shirt or that outfit. I would say it seems for hours because... No, Paul, he's wearing that, so I was tracking there. The same exact thing. And she wakes up in a thick black tee, and it's thick and it's cheap and it's heavy. I got big and it's, I got big.
Starting point is 00:19:10 And it says, yes, and she's wearing that. I got big dice. She's wearing that all the way to when she's on the bed with him and he's wearing the same clothes in Mexico. They are so disgusting. They're so disgusting they don't take a shower. They're 19! Who cares? There's also, I've never ever seen a movie with such an, like, egregious edit in my life where it's like, oh, they think they're being killed, they, I guess, we don't know,
Starting point is 00:19:42 beat the shit out of a bellhop. Like, fully kill him. They waterboard him, they waterboard him. They waterboard him. Let's be clear, they murder that man. I think so. But they don't force, every hotel in Vegas has a giant pitcher of water.
Starting point is 00:20:00 Just an open pitcher of water? I was like, what is this? You know, and all the hotel carts that have an open hole in the top? Wait, what I what I couldn't understand is what was I know they thought it was a gun, but what was he bringing in? A dryer. Like a hair dryer. Where is the cord?
Starting point is 00:20:15 Where is the cord? It was a cordless hair dryer. I've never seen. I didn't know we had the technology. I also. I was like, what is that thing? It's future tech. This takes place in the future. What movie, what also, what kind of character also enters by putting a hairdryer through? That's how I'm entering, hairdryer.
Starting point is 00:20:39 But here's the thing. That guy comes in, they think it's a gun, they cover him up, they beat the living fuck out of him, and then they don't reveal it. They don't show you any of the funniness of, oh, I'm so sorry. They're like, oh, god. You never get to see that he's okay.
Starting point is 00:20:54 Nope. Nope. They're just like, here we are at the helicopter. What? When they go to the helicopter, I rewound, I'm like, what did I miss? Did I blink? Did I have a stroke? Not even like a nice helicopter.
Starting point is 00:21:04 Like, do you want to fly in a helicopter from the scene? Like a helicopter from the scenes in Magna Pi where he's flashing back to Vietnam? But I'm also like, at one point they go, Michael can't come with us. I'm like, who the fuck is Michael? I didn't even know there was a Michael here. And then...
Starting point is 00:21:19 Also, how do you not bring, was his name Buzz? Buzz, yes. How do you not bring Buzz back? One of the most charismatic people in the movie. I don't remember Buzz. Buzz is in the other movie? The pilot of the helicopter. For 10K, he'll take you anywhere.
Starting point is 00:21:33 He'll take you to Mexico without your passport. Cool. Okay, he was amazing. He was amazing and Kyle Richards was as well. What? Kyle Richards is great. What was that? She was great.
Starting point is 00:21:45 I was flummoxed by her arrival only because I was wondering, is she playing herself? Well, here's what's so interesting. I want to know when this movie came out because for those who know- 2024 just came out. I don't believe it. I don't believe it.
Starting point is 00:21:59 It's only a few months old. January 24th. First day in 2024, but is it currently 2027? Yeah, it's just not, the numbers aren't lining up. few months old, January 24th. But is it currently 2027? Yeah, it's just not the numbers aren't lining up. But it was so wild to watch her deliver some of those monologues about marriage, knowing what we know now, of course, about her.
Starting point is 00:22:16 What do we know now? Mauricio. So Kyle has had this long relationship with a man named Mauricio, who, by the way, sells a lot of real estate in Putamita, Mexico. So I did have the thought, maybe she was just there. And they hired her, like a local hire. But they've had this marriage, they've just really presented themselves as absolutely in love for years, like 30 years. Okay. And the marriage has fallen apart this year. Got it. And it's so is that why is she because I feel like is she being
Starting point is 00:22:53 down on guys in this movie? Or is she being like, well, that's interesting too, because she has a joke about them being lesbians. And she did have a very sort of will they won't they sort of a lot of lesbian rumors about her and the singer Morgan. What's her name? Morgan Wade. So that piece of it- You guys know that, but you don't know anything else. Okay. That piece of it was so crazy. It was a wild scene to watch because it just felt like we were watching Kyle talk about Maurice E. Morgan. I thought that too.
Starting point is 00:23:30 And then, but then little did we know that she plays a very pivotal role because it's the mother of the guy that Abby was supposed to be with. Now listen. What are the odds? Did you mind that he had a British accent and she didn't? Honestly, I didn't hear a goddamn word. I thought Parker had a British accent in this movie.
Starting point is 00:23:55 No, Parker doesn't have a British accent. I don't think so. Does he? He does! Oh, maybe, is he trying to cover it up, maybe? And it's coming through? I don't know. I don't remember him having one last movie. Okay, all I know is his dog bark sounded American. Also, the entire scene of her, this,
Starting point is 00:24:14 this scene, I couldn't make heads or tails of because she's asleep, still dressed as the cat wrestling costume. She is- She puts that back on. No. This is after she wrestled, she's out cat wrestling costume. She is... She puts that back on. No. This is after she wrestled, she's out of that costume. She pisses on herself, or just pours tequila
Starting point is 00:24:32 because I might be peeing on myself. And then she then goes in to cheat on her husband. No, she goes in just to get a selfie with... Just to get a selfie, Paul. Just to make him jealous, just to make Travis jealous. But she puts that on. She does. But then falls asleep.
Starting point is 00:24:45 But the amount of noise that she, this Parker is such a deep sleeper. What is he taking? She's screaming at full volume. It is so loud, everything she's doing, and he's just waking up to this. She is making cat sounds. I couldn't tell you why.
Starting point is 00:25:09 I mean, this is... That seems like an actor's choice. This is the callback. What if I did the, oh, it is? Yes, because the first... Was she making cat sounds? Yes, the first movie when she gives him a hand job... I remember the hand job.
Starting point is 00:25:22 She goes, oh, nice kitty, nice kitty. And she grabs the kitty's tail. So this is the heightening. But this time she's the kitty, and he's the dog. Right. Which is a new form of sex play. Well, but she's not a kitten, though. That's what she did think when she was giving him a hand job.
Starting point is 00:25:42 She thought she was touching a cat. Now let's be clear. She's the cat. He's the dog. I know she's the cat. Let me be clear. She has broken into his room while he is asleep and then sexually assaults him.
Starting point is 00:25:56 That's what I don't understand, though, is that. But still, I cannot understand why she's making cat noise. Why don't either? Because she is deadly asleep thinking she's a cat. She dreams about... What? Yes. How do you know that?
Starting point is 00:26:11 Because it's a novella. So then why does he think he's a dog? Because he's dreaming about being a dog. Guys, you're so fucking dense. By the way, these are... This movie is all here. You're saying this like, you know you've had dreams of flying
Starting point is 00:26:29 or dreams or even to perform and you know you've had your life. I'm a dog, I'm a dog. But he only starts making dog sounds, I think, after she starts jerking him off, as if that's what happens when dogs get jerked off. Like, what I will say about both of these movies, the plot and the story and the choices are inscrutable.
Starting point is 00:26:49 I don't understand why they're making these choices, but thank God they are. Because if they weren't, if this was a flat telling of the same basic story points, boy, would it be just awful. Oh, I mean, the fact that at 45 minutes into the film, he goes, maybe we should take a break from each other. They've only been together.
Starting point is 00:27:11 Oh yeah, they've only been together for about 72 hours as a married couple. I think we just need some time to figure each other out, like find ourselves. This movie was the longest movie I've ever seen. Same. Why was it so long? Every time I looked and stopped to catch my breath
Starting point is 00:27:28 and just like reorient myself in the real world. Somehow there was 45 minutes left every time. There was always, always 45 minutes left. And I was so shocked. But so much is happening. Literally so much is happening. So much so that you're like, wait, what? All right, I have this friend who freed a rooster.
Starting point is 00:27:46 The rooster that he freed is trying to kill him. I do not gloss over this. Because the only love story I care about in the movie is Shep and the Roosters. Shep is easily the most interesting character in the story. When Shep is trapped in the interesting character in the story. When Shep is trapped in the closet by the roosters and his mother calls from hospice
Starting point is 00:28:11 and his grandmother dies on the phone with him. No, no, no. It's even worse. I mean on the floor outside. He doesn't get to talk to her. It's even worse because what they say is the mom says, hey, whatever you're. Hey Shep, I'm in the hospice with Grandma.
Starting point is 00:28:26 We're going to pull the plug. And then Grandma goes, hi, Chef. I want to... Boop! Like, they wouldn't even let her finish a sentence. We've just watched Mattricide. It's so crazy. I loved that part.
Starting point is 00:28:47 Chef is the best. Shep, I don't know what's going on in Shep's mind at all. Yeah. Shep is in the middle of like a nervous breakdown. I laughed when he wakes up the next morning, and the Roosters have drawn etched out pictures of him. I was laughing so hard. Do you have the picture of all the different drawings and sentences? I wish, no.
Starting point is 00:29:10 The roosters have trashed his room and graffitied all over the walls. Just one. In English. And a picture of him. What? That's in this movie. Oh my god. But am I wrong in remembering it, like,
Starting point is 00:29:27 that Shep freed the rooster? Oh, all of them. All of them. So why do they hate Shep then? They're fighters. They're fight, yes. They're cockfighting roosters. He lets them all free in the room, like, oh, we're all going to hang out now, but they're trained to kill each other.
Starting point is 00:29:44 So they begin to slaughter each other. I thought, okay, we're all gonna hang out now, but they're trained to kill each other. So they begin to slaughter each other. I thought, okay, I thought it was... What did you think happened in there? I thought they were just mad at Chip. Oh, I mean, I kind of... Because of the writing on the wall. No, no, I think... It seemed personal.
Starting point is 00:29:59 It wasn't like a guy was like, oh shit, I let these dogs run loose. It was like these motherfuckers like, now you're going down, asshole. It wasn't like a guy who was like, oh shit, I let these dogs run loose. It was like these mother fuckers were like, now you're going down, asshole. Like we have, it felt like they had a vendetta for him. Well, I think that's also true. Oh, I don't think these cocks respect life at all.
Starting point is 00:30:19 They are going for it. But you're right though, like this isn't a bit, like the most compelling story was him wrestling with whether or not he was a carnivore, like whether or not and then actually confronting like animals who are trained to kill, like it was compelling. Yeah. It was compelling. Especially when you realize that is the second beat of him admitting to being a hunter and
Starting point is 00:30:44 that upsetting his girlfriend so much. And now he decides to care for animals. He has, get ready for it, an arc? He does. He does. Shep, the only person who has an arc in this movie. I also arc you. The rest of them like Travis and what was her name?
Starting point is 00:31:03 Abby. Abby, like him and her. her name? Abby. Abby. Him and her. They start in one place and they seem to end in the exact same place. They times zero each other. They go right back to zero. Do they have chemistry? That's a great question.
Starting point is 00:31:18 Is it fun to watch them fight or is it just like ugh? No, it's neither fun to watch them fight nor fun to watch them kiss. No, I... I'm also not, like, turned on by their sex scene. I had more... I was more turned on by the kitten and the dog sex scene than when he's like, I'm oog, I'm gonna...
Starting point is 00:31:37 You're Team Parker? In this scenario... I wanted Abby to fuck Miguel the priest and be like, oh yeah, listen, listen Miguel, you taught me how to juggle. You're about to become a priest, let's go. What I couldn't understand is the scene
Starting point is 00:31:57 where they decide to take a break with their bachelor parties and bachelor parties, she says to him, he says like, I've really been a dick. And she's like, no, you haven't, no you haven't. And he's like, she says to him, he says like, I've really been a dick. And she's like, no, you haven't, you haven't. And he's like, no, I have, I have. And she's like, yeah. And multiple times in the movie,
Starting point is 00:32:13 cause the same things that happens with Mayor and Shep, where he's like, I've been really acting like an asshole. And she's like, no, no, no, no, no. And he's like, no, yes, I have. Like the women will not accept the bad behavior and toxicity of these men. And it's so disturbing. I'm just gonna go out on a limb here and say,
Starting point is 00:32:35 Abby is questionable in some of her behavior. Why you say that? When she's like, I need to fuck you, just put it in an inch and then she locks them in there. So like, yeah. Let's be clear. Travis and Abby are both toxic and insane. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:56 Full stop. Yes, but. I just want to acknowledge that. Okay, fine. But his behavior around the topless beach, around her taking her shirt, like all of that was absolutely insane. That was a little overboard. I'll say!
Starting point is 00:33:13 And you're right though, they are both like terrible people. I don't even know if they're terrible. I don't know what they... It's literally like watching someone play with two Barbie dolls and just like slapping them together. Like it's, it doesn't. It feels like they are each triggering the other person constantly as if that is chemistry. You know what it feels like to me is if this movie was made
Starting point is 00:33:39 and then it's like drunk history, they get somebody really drunk, they're like, explain the movie to me. And this movie feels like a drunk history reenactment of someone telling you about a romcom that they saw. And then like there's cartoons, they're punching them, he's like boobies! And then the guy is fighting a chicken
Starting point is 00:34:00 because he killed a chicken, but then they know it's roosters and then they're like, fuck you, and they ride on the wall. And then another guy, he's like, my boyfriend, and he's like, I'm getting a painting, and then he gets knocked in the mud, then they're in the mud, and then the priest is there, and he's juggling, and it's like, wait, what?
Starting point is 00:34:14 Or it's either, I agree, it could be that, or it's written by, like, two 12-year-olds. It's written by two 12-year-olds who are like, I think this is what sex is like. I think this is what it is to be in love. I do like that they like safe sex. I mean, they really... Oh, well, you know what was smart?
Starting point is 00:34:32 I will give the movie this. It was very smart to set the movie in Mexico where we all know you cannot get condoms. You can't get them! Illegal in Mexico, impossible. Even if you've got a hook up like Sancho, who's with them 24-7, can't ask my guy for some condoms? But here's the thing. Why was he looking? I did find it very strange that they just settled
Starting point is 00:34:56 into this Airbnb and he immediately looks in the bedside drawer for condoms. Did they come with every Airbnb? Bibles and condoms. And if they are there, don't use those. Then he goes, then he leaves. Yeah, don't. Here's a PSA for everybody. Don't use found condoms.
Starting point is 00:35:16 Oh. Just don't do it. He then leaves his room to go ask Shep if Shep has condoms, and Shep appears to be wearing, like, very offensive... Like, he's dressed in, like, very offensive Mexican stereotypical Mexican gear. Big mustache and a bandolier, like, El Guapo from Three Amigos. Like... I was like, he's got this, but no condoms?
Starting point is 00:35:43 They're wearing the same clothes that they got puked on in, but this guy's got full on, like, sexy dress up, offensive sexy dress up? But weren't they fucking in the helicopter? Oh, yes, they were. Maybe that's where all the condoms went. Yeah. And then how big is that helicopter bathroom?
Starting point is 00:36:01 How big is that helicopter that they can go into a private room in that helicopter? I can't imagine there's a bathroom in any helicopter. I don't think there's bathrooms. Maybe a hole in the ground. Like the hole that they pour the water in for that poor bellhop. Here's my question about the brothers, the Maddox brothers. So the wedding happens, they're married. And then after they present her with a ring. Why not give it to her before? Why not give it to your brother to give
Starting point is 00:36:38 her and have that moment before she's already married? You don't want to mess up the wedding day with the ring. You do that afterwards in private. Also, why not, if you're the brothers, why not give the ring to Travis to give to her? It was very strange. Why do they do it away from Travis as if they're protecting him from like talking about their dead mother in front of him? No, the movie, listen, the movie ended and I was like, oh, she's married to the brothers. Got it. By the way, she's married to the brothers. Got it.
Starting point is 00:37:05 By the way, she'll be better off. Absolutely. I also found it interesting where like, we need to take a break. Why don't you bring your friends in for a bachelor party and I'll do nothing. Like, she is like... I think she doesn't have friends except for men. Oh, right, yeah. Remember, because she grew up on the run with her dad.
Starting point is 00:37:24 But I was obsessed with watching the, I don't know where Kyle Richards found, see, I would love to see a whole other movie about Kyle Richards in that resort, because she pulls those women together like ladies in waiting. Who are those women? Oh, yeah, what was that? Is she some sort of like guru or something?
Starting point is 00:37:42 I have no idea. It seemed like she had just paid for these little... She seems to be teaching like a workshop in the power of the pussy. That's what she's telling them about when she then sexually assaults the waiter. I'm gonna tell you two things that are gonna maybe help this.
Starting point is 00:37:59 The movie had to be written in less than four weeks. And they also, according to the actors, improvised a majority of it. I'm not surprised by that at all. And multiple times wrote, there's no way that was a line. Like, people are saying stuff just to say stuff. Yeah, they had one month to write and cast the movie. So that is it, to get down to the DR to shoot this
Starting point is 00:38:28 on the sets that Roadhouse wasn't using when they were shooting their movie. Oh, wow. So they were really fighting for sets too. So there we go. I would love to talk for I guess the rest of the time we have here about the blooper scene. Oh, the what? The blooper scene. Blooper single.
Starting point is 00:38:55 I have I've never seen one blooper. There is nothing else. And it wasn't even good. It was just celebrating too long. Bloopers are meant to be enjoyed by you at home being like, oh, they're cracking each other up or whatever. They're having a good time. This wasn't that at all.
Starting point is 00:39:14 He yells at the director, Roger, stop laughing. I thought what he was saying, I don't know if I want to watch it again to find out actually. I thought what he was saying was, Roger, like when are you going to cut? Like you've had us scream here. Oh, I thought he was like, I can't do this acting with you laughing over there. He's like, what do you think? You're on Netflix as a joke show over here? Acting! over there. He's like, what do you think you're on Netflix is a joke show over here? Acting.
Starting point is 00:39:47 What do you think this is Hulu is hilarious? Hashtag Hulu is hilarious. By the way, Hulu needs to start a festival at the same week. It's just called Hulu is hilarious. The cast of the bear doing variety shows. I didn't. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
Starting point is 00:40:09 You'll see everyone on Shogun do a tight five. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. Wait, but that also, again, that scene to me, them laughing about the game and that one single blooper also reminded me of my favorite scene about the game and that one single blooper also reminded me of my... One single blooper. Reminded me of my favorite scene in the movie, which is when she's juggling with the priest,
Starting point is 00:40:33 he comes out and fucking eats grapes like knuckles from Sonic. Ha ha ha ha ha. Like eating them whole... I thought that was a funny choice. Funny choice. Then he drops the towel just so he can intimidate Miguel with his big dick.
Starting point is 00:40:48 He doesn't yet know that Miguel is a priest in training. Can I tell you how I... P.I.T. By the way, can I tell you how I would like to have shot that scene? I thought of this and I was like, well, I'll never make... I need to love you. P.I.T.
Starting point is 00:41:01 Priest in training. Don't overthink this too much, but the way I would have shot that scene is when he dropped his towel, it should have looked like an eclipse covered the sun. Well it's the whole thing with- His dick is so big, it covers all natural life. I would have loved it if we knew Miguel was training to become a priest, but when he saw Travis's dick, he renounced God. I would love it.
Starting point is 00:41:30 I would love nothing more than if I could make all of my roles, force them to make me have a big dickie in all of them, just by people talking about it. How did this come in? They dedicate five minutes of the movie... to Shep. I am sorry to keep going back to Shep and the chickens and the cocks rather. But the guy who's carrying the dead, the dead cock covered, who's saying, my son, my son,
Starting point is 00:42:01 and he's so upset. And Shep is just like, and then that's such a funny scene when everybody's watching and the cockfight lasts one second off camera. And then Shep is clearly affected by it. And then we go on and they, the guy, everybody's betting on the Maddox brothers eating hot peppers or something like that. But they cut to Shep outside in the world, and the guy comes back again like, oh, no!
Starting point is 00:42:26 And he walks back in again. It's the same scene plays out, but Shep is like so moved by it. They spend so much time. Shep alone with the cocks? What? I couldn't understand. Merrick was very upset when Shep fell out of the roof.
Starting point is 00:42:49 Made me laugh. I laughed too. Just like, but she was so upset. Hey, what's up? But she was so upset. I just, I actually just need an explanation. Then he was saying he was sort of covering for spying on her and then was saying there was an earthquake there. What was happening?
Starting point is 00:43:07 Is that, he was covering for falling out of the- It seems like no one had like headset mics on, like, or no one, like it seemed like nobody in Video Village was able to hear the dialogue and it just looked like, yeah, that looked like a scene happened. Great, move on. I mean, I think- There are things I'm just like, I guess I have-
Starting point is 00:43:24 It feels like all they had was the idea that he's spying on them. Maybe he's jealous, he's insecure, whatever. He falls down into things. And then I feel like the rest of it, they were like, just go, just riff. You guys will riff. Just try and be like embarrassed and cover and all the earthquake stuff. All that stuff felt like riffing to me. But not good riffing.
Starting point is 00:43:43 No. I could make heather tales. But I think that's why it didn't make sense. Sure. Remember when they were playing Twister? Holy shit. With Sancho? And how many disgusting shots of feet there were?
Starting point is 00:43:56 Ugh. The whole thing was so gross. And when Shep farted in Travis's face, I was like, what the fuck is going on? Don't show me farting in faces and don't show me all these gross feet, please. This is not a Tarantino movie. You're not making up for this with brilliant filmmaking.
Starting point is 00:44:13 This is too much foot content. And then they sing like this very weird Italian song. They sing it in a karaoke machine while the power is dot dot dot, dot... Out. Out. Out. What? No! You made a whole point to be like,
Starting point is 00:44:32 it's raining, the power is out, so they've got to play games. Except they've got a functioning karaoke machine. What? I also... I don't know. I don't know what's happening. It falls apart. The movie is so unstable.'t know, I don't know what's happening. It falls apart. The movie is so unstable.
Starting point is 00:44:49 You know what I mean? It's so unstable. It's like, it's like it doesn't have, it's like baking something without an egg. Ha ha, without an egg. There's no binder. There's no binder for the cake and it's just coming apart in your hands
Starting point is 00:45:03 and you're like like what is this? And and if we're gonna even go there the two women that try to seduce Travis Travis right? Okay They take his phone and instead of doing credit card transactions anything they just want to look through his photos Like all they're doing is, like, they're like, eww, gross, gross. Like, their job is to rob men and just critique their eye photo. And then...
Starting point is 00:45:33 I will be up at night thinking about the women who went topless for this movie. I will never forget them. So many. And I honor them. So many. So many. So many boobies, boobs, and tits.
Starting point is 00:45:46 For this. For this. Oh my God. Devastating, really. Let's go. It's really devastating. Let's go to the audience. And I do have some more information about the novel.
Starting point is 00:45:54 I got some other things to share, but we'll go out here. We'll see what we have going on. And I will say, if you are someone who has read the novels or have more book info, can we get house lights? Please raise your hand and give it to us because we wanna know the truth. All right, what's your name?
Starting point is 00:46:08 Amanda. Amanda, why do you love Netflix? Oh. Oh. What? Oh, it's so good. It is. All right, your question.
Starting point is 00:46:18 Do you wanna recommend any shows from Hulu? You better watch yourself, it'll kick your right the fuck out. That's a trick question. All right, uh, you... Ha-ha! Your question. Um, at one point, Abby talks about how she wants to move to Paris. And then with a very straight face
Starting point is 00:46:35 and no further explanation, he said, well, how am I supposed to pursue criminal justice there? Oh, my God! I forgot about that! Thank you so much. I mean, Amanda, about that. Thank you so much. I mean, Amanda, great work. Thank you so much. Both of those elements, both Paris...
Starting point is 00:46:51 Thank you so much. ...and criminal justice, never mentioned again. Both of their dreams deferred. Criminal justice. Criminal justice. I don't think he knows what those words mean. Nope. Together. I again believe think he knows what those words mean. Nope.
Starting point is 00:47:06 Together. I again believe it's an improvised line. Yeah. Criminal justice. Okay. Hi. How you doing? What's your favorite show hosted by Mikey Day on Netflix?
Starting point is 00:47:19 I have no idea. Is it cake? Now here's your question. My question is, this movie's based in Mexico. They speak Spanish at some point, yet the owner of the hotel says a made up word for dick in Spanish and can't say an actual Spanish word for dick. He's just like, Pino and a what?
Starting point is 00:47:43 Really? Yeah, the entire time. That wasn't someone's name, wasn't he? No, no, no. He was referring to Dick the entire time. Because he's excited. He's like, oh, he has a big dick. And it's like, yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:54 Yeah, he's in the pool, and the girls are like, oh, where are the guys? And he was like, I prefer Pino. And it's like, my guy. Like, bingo, bing, fucking beatle. The world is your oyster. Especially because also they are subtitling the Spanish speaking in the movie.
Starting point is 00:48:13 He could say whatever he wants. All right, yes, your name? Jonathan. Your question. More a comment, Shep's iPhone during the rooster murder scene, it inexplicably works like an old-style answering machine. Because... Oh, right, it played as a speakerphone.
Starting point is 00:48:30 It answers... It answers on its own and plays out loud. Thank you so much. So that he can sob in the closet about his grandmother dying. If I do the movie... If I give the movie a little credit, I think the roosters answered the phone. No, I think you're right.
Starting point is 00:48:48 That's what I think. I'm assuming the Roosters answered the phone just to torment Shep. All right, your name, your question. Hello, my name is Yuvia. Do Roosters lay eggs? Good question, June. Do we...
Starting point is 00:49:11 Do we have a cock expert in the room? Any pinot experts? Any pinot experts? Let me go back over here. The movie's not concerned with reality like that. Well, here's what's really interesting, too. And maybe we've glossed over this because everything is so confusing. This went from a pretty heightened, but kind
Starting point is 00:49:37 of real world rom-com into fucking hangover three territory. You meat like it's you're right only it's part two and went straight to three and and just changed tones it's like yes these are the same characters but totally this is a comedy ooh I don't think so wait you think that this movie thinks it's comedy a comedy first yeah she pukes on him I think so too I think they I think that this movie thinks it's a comedy first. Yeah, she puked on him. I think so too. I think they...
Starting point is 00:50:07 Oh, I definitely think they have comedy going on, but I mean, in the sense that, I don't know, I think they're still trying to do a rom-com. They just don't have any of the beats. I think they let go of rom and went into sex, well, sex comedy. I think they were going for American Pie yeah exactly like yeah one one applause world one one person one
Starting point is 00:50:35 clap Stiffler Stiffler is over here. Please don't point that out. Please don't point that out. Please don't look at me. Please don't look at me. Please don't look at me. I, I, no, I agree with you. I think that a single clap for American Pie. I know this is a movie. I know this is a movie with.
Starting point is 00:51:10 I would love it if from now on on one of our things was that when people enjoyed a joke or something they all just went... Just one. You guys get it. Try and implement it through the night. You all have to make eye contact though to make sure you get it on the same... You have to connect it through the night. You all have to make eye contact though to make sure you get on the same... You have to connect with each other. You've got to figure out group mind for the audience. Focus on the tall guy. He'll be your leader.
Starting point is 00:51:36 Wait, I just forgot the... Oh, this is a movie where I know that there are at least two hand job scenes in this movie. But the first hand job scene made me so uncomfortable where they're like, yeah, I like this, this is good. And obviously they don't like giving hand jobs. She tears three layers of skin off of his dick. Oh. She is, they appear to have no lubrication whatsoever
Starting point is 00:52:00 and she is cranking down on that thing as if she is, I don't even know what, trying to tear it off his literal body. Okay, okay, okay, we're getting somewhere. This guy gets it, focus on him now. He's the leader, you blew it tall guy. All right, your name, your question.
Starting point is 00:52:26 My name's Aaron and I was going to ask what we think the name of the animated penis is, but someone here I think already gave us the answer, Pino. Pino, you think the animated penis is called Pino? I don't think so. Okay. I would love it if that were the case. Ooh, that animated penis, whew, that was tough. I needed it.
Starting point is 00:52:48 I also don't understand why we needed to see an animated penis. She's like, give me an inch, and then it just shows how much more, like, the way that the movie portrays that penis is as if she says give me- The cartoon penis, you mean, or his penis. No, the cartoon penis in my mind,
Starting point is 00:53:06 all right, sit with me on this one for a second. Please, Paul, take your time to explain to the audience how the cartoon penis played out in your mind. Thank you. We had all the time in the world. We had all night, baby. Netflix is a joke! Okay! Okay!
Starting point is 00:53:26 Okay, you guys, I love watching an audience learn. You guys nailed it. They didn't nail it yet, even though that is a show. Yeah, that's what I was trying to do. I was trying to think. All right. You guys blue-eyed Samuraised that. No.
Starting point is 00:53:44 People aren't even looking around. Don't fall apart. Okay, in my mind, she says, give me just an inch. Oh, God. Okay, and Travis goes, got it. And he just makes an inch of his dick hard. And then she says, give me a little bit more. And he's like, and he goes a little bit bigger.
Starting point is 00:54:04 Well, you're right. That is what... That's the way it's portrayed, right? You're right that that's what happens with the cartoon penis. But I think she's just, she's saying, give me the tip, essential. Right, but... But you're right.
Starting point is 00:54:16 I'm just saying the way that the cartoon is making me understand it is that he has tremendous mind control. And let's be clear. Let's be clear and think about how impossible this would be. He's able to just make the tip hard first? I don't think so. He's getting the blood just to the tip.
Starting point is 00:54:38 Quick, just straight through to the tip. Don't get anything else going. This movie did make me hate sex. It does. Me too. It makes me. Me too, it's gross. It makes me mad that I want the animated penis
Starting point is 00:54:52 to be on the t-shirt. But I boy do I want it. No way. I don't know if this makes it any clearer to you all, but I will just tell you this. Because I realized in my notes, the great Molly Reynolds, the owner of our producers, did write down everything.
Starting point is 00:55:08 A Beautiful Disaster is based on the first book of Jamie Maguire's beautiful series. Are we still talking about what this is based on? We haven't made any headway there? Here's what I feel like. I feel like I'm watching the movie now. I feel like the show is the movie, and I thought we were wrapping up,
Starting point is 00:55:26 and I just looked at Paul, and we have 45 minutes left. It's creative. Somehow. Somehow we've gone back in time? It's in the book. Wait a minute. If he says novella, I'm going to straight up kill. I'm going to kill myself happening style.
Starting point is 00:55:45 Okay. With the house lights off, you guys are struggling with the single clap. But I like it anyway. You keep leading. Watch his hat. I'm not gonna look at you. No, them, yes, them. Obviously, you say novel, them. Obviously,
Starting point is 00:56:05 you say novel, I say novella. There's a lot of different opinions out there, but now it's time for second opinions. Cold from prime, we have some opinions that it seems other people don't share. Though at times, Though at times stranger than Paul's childhood, these reviews are by people who care. So let's read if there are boobies or cursing in this movie or wigs that look like hate crimes. Typed with love, but never punctuation. Five stars on Amazon Prime. Amazing. Great job.
Starting point is 00:56:51 Beautiful. Fantastic. Wow, wow, wow. Great job. Amazing. All right. Here's the deal, people. This movie just came out a couple months ago.
Starting point is 00:57:05 There's only 458 reviews. 52% of them are five-star, but... Yep. But all of them suck. So I went to Discord and said... I love my Discord. This is written by Claire Meacham. What an honor to witness this. God bless America. Five stars.
Starting point is 00:57:27 Do you think she meant Ameri- this person meant America like Mare? The character Mare? Yeah. God bless America, the character. Sarah Kiger writes, Less Dylan Sprouse ass, but he did say Uga wanna fuck, so it balances out.
Starting point is 00:57:48 Five stars. And then my favorite one of them all by Ian Bruce, you couldn't make a movie like this in 2024. What? Five stars. Oh, that's amazing. Now, they wouldn't let you make a classic like this in 22. The woke police wouldn't let you make this classic. There are a couple of things that are interesting that I wanted to share with you. We talked about the mud scene. And every time you hear the cast talk about this movie, they seem to be talking about
Starting point is 00:58:08 the mud scene. And I think that's the thing about the mud scene, too, is that it's a very, very interesting thing.

Starting point is 00:58:24 thing. And I think that's the thing about the mud scene, too, is that it's a very, very interesting thing interesting that I wanted to share with you. We talked about the mud scene. And every time you hear the cast talk about this movie, they seem angry. Well, that just brings up something. Again, one blooper. Also, how often do you hear this cast talk about the movie? Every time you hear the movie, the cast talk about this movie, how much are you tuning into that? Well, I started to go down to Rabbit Hole.
Starting point is 00:58:46 I was like, oh, let me see, you know, I'll watch a couple of their interviews. Gardner called the mud scene the most challenging to film. That was two days in real mud, not fake mud. There were rocks in it. Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute. Is there fake mud? Let's unpack that just briefly.
Starting point is 00:59:04 What's fake mud? Let's unpack that just briefly. What's fake mud? I guess like where they would just Yeah, what? Like make it, well, you'll see why. She goes, not fake mud, there were rocks in it and mosquitoes were super drawn to it and they were laying eggs in it. And it was pretty nasty.
Starting point is 00:59:24 And I'm grateful that Rob Estes was in there with me. He's a great sport. But that was a tough scene for me. Then they cut a lot of it. So that always adds insult to injury when you spend a lot of time on something and it ends up on the cutting room floor. I feel for this woman. I feel for this woman.
Starting point is 00:59:46 I feel for this woman. How long is this movie? What's the runtime? An hour and like 35 minutes. It's four hours and 25 minutes. I only wonder because here is a, I have a theory as to why there is a single blooper. You have to, your movie has to be a certain number
Starting point is 01:00:06 of minutes long in order to qualify as a feature length movie. So a lot of times the reason there are bloopers or bits at the end of a movie are because the edit has come in too short to fall into the category. That's normally under an hour 30, this is an hour 40. It is, okay, so that's what I was wondering.
Starting point is 01:00:24 I was like, oh, did they just need that one? Jason, it's not why. I'm trying to help the movie out. I don't know why. I don't know why I think I love the beautiful series. I think these movies are my movies. Virginia's real life husband is in the movie. She got married right before she started shooting the movie.
Starting point is 01:00:46 As did Dylan, they both were newly married. They went to go shoot this movie and her husband is in it. She said, he's outside the Lucha Libre tent. And I get to- In an English accent? As if he's at a Ren fair? Yep. In Mexico? Yep.
Starting point is 01:01:00 I knew it. Couldn't figure that out. I had to grab him by the nose and take him out of the frame. My husband and I had a lot of fun with that little cameo. It was his first time acting, so he was nervous. He was rehearsing that stupid song he sings in the movie. He sang it all day and night. Everything just ends. That's infuriating, because that's a perfect example
Starting point is 01:01:22 of a thing in the movie that makes no sense because they're at a the festival where the where she dresses as the cat it's a luchador wrestling match they're eating the hot peppers it's like a it's a whole festival and then she comes across a man who's acting like he's at a ren fair. Yep. Like, hello, m'lady. And I was like, whoa, whoa, whoa, what's this now? How is this part of, like, the Luchador Festival that he's doing medieval stuff? He calls her a wench and she gets mad at him?
Starting point is 01:01:55 Was that it? Well, because now I'm wondering, like, does he... He's not an actor, so was that part in the script or was he just like, I wanna be in the movie, this is something I can do? Yeah. Or she was like, babe, you should do your Renfair thing. Exactly, that bit we do that makes me laugh.
Starting point is 01:02:12 Oh, Jason June, would you recommend this movie? Yes, 100%, yes, forever and ever, I love it, I think. Yeah, okay, we're back. No, no. It really, it depressed me. It made me sad. It made me sad for young women. It made me feel like,
Starting point is 01:02:38 oh, there's so much work to do, you know? And will we ever get there and why are we going backwards? It made me very depressed. I agree. It was, it's to me. I loved it. I hated it.
Starting point is 01:02:58 And I'm in this zone where I could watch it for the rest of my life and still get something out of it and also hate every minute of my waking life. I don't know, it's like a lifetime movie where they are allowed to go hard R and that's what I kind of love about it. That's what I like. What I like, yes, it was more successful in the first one. In the first one because the plot a little bit was-
Starting point is 01:03:24 The plot was insane. You're looking back on the- This one was crazy. And the first one because the plot a little bit was... The plot was insane. You're looking back on the... This one was crazy. And the first one was cute. The first one was crazy, but it at least was an archetype I understood. You know what I mean? They're in college. He's the bad boy. She's the ba ba ba. The plot is nuts, but I at least understood the architecture. Right. You understood it was a rom-com. I understood the architecture.
Starting point is 01:03:42 This is neither a wedding movie, nor a bachelor party movie. It's like a chase movie. It's a movie about the beauty of Mexico. They go to jail. It's like all this stuff from the first movie, she never gambles, he barely fights. All that stuff out the window.
Starting point is 01:04:02 All of the elements of the first one, it's almost as if they're starting from scratch and are like, we'll find it out the window. All of the elements of the first one, it's almost as if they're starting from scratch and are like, we'll find it on the day. We'll figure out who... Should we go back to where the source material's from? Yeah. So, in 2015... Um, all right. I love it.
