Speaker 1 (00:33):
We're gonna start writing headlines again soon.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
Yeah, you know, it's life. You know, sometimes you run
out of time and that's that happens. We go live
and we're.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
Like, oh, like, oh no, we forgot to do this.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
You did okay? Thank you as fun as me, but.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
You, well, you're always more fun than me. People always
tell me that he has an infectious smile. Good, But
what about me? You got a thicker mustache, a very
thick mustache.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
Right now? What are you go plan for Old Thanksgiving?
Speaker 1 (01:00):
What do I got planned? We got my in laws
going to my parents' house, So one destination for the day.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
How about you?
Speaker 2 (01:11):
I'm going to three potentially four destinations?
Speaker 1 (01:13):
You idiot, You dummy, you still.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
You know, I'm fostering a new loving relationship here, so
I gotta do what's asked of me.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
It reminds me of the movie Four Christmases?
Speaker 2 (01:23):
Does it? Does it? Really? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Because they have Four Christmases in my Reese Witherspoon or
Vince Vaughn is Jon Favreau in that one say he
is one of the brothers. And then there's the wife.
I'm gonna guess Kristin shennow With. For some reason, she
is in that. I think I think she is in that.
She's also in Deck the Halls.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
I don't like her.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
No, I don't care for her either. But you're the og.
You're a wicked boy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't care
for Wicked. Is the Boston movie by the way.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Wicked, Wicked, Wicked for good Light.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
So while watching a YouTube video done by Big Tug,
he mentioned on Black Friday there used to be something
called Frank's Giving. Did you have you heard of this?
Speaker 2 (02:05):
What does Big Tug specialize in?
Speaker 1 (02:07):
He just does commentaries usually twice a week, twenty ish minutes.
That's a great name, Big Tug, Big Tug. I wish
your name, Big Tug. This podcast would have taken off.
If your name was big Tug.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Are you more into little tugs?
Speaker 1 (02:21):
Oh, mil tug liilt tug, good and lilte. Have you
heard of Frank's Giving? You're a history boy.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
Not a clue. Never heard of this. I saw this.
I opened this to your note here, and I said, wow,
that's a nice little fun fact.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
It's crazy. So in nineteen thirty nine, FDR wanted to
stimulate the economy, wanted to get the Christmas shoppers out early,
and he moved Thanksgiving up one week to get people
buying gifts that one week earlier. And during that time
the nation was split unlike any other time in this
(02:57):
Country's his real divisive. Yeah, so there were the point
of there was new Franksgiving. It looks like, let's say
twenty states celebrated that.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Don't want to count for you?
Speaker 1 (03:08):
You can count while I'm doing this one?
Speaker 2 (03:10):
Which color am I counting here?
Speaker 1 (03:11):
You're counting orange? I would call that red? But yes,
all right, what's wrong with your eyes? That's orange? That's
red for sure. Then we go to traditional Thanksgiving, which
is the actual week, it's the fourth Thanksgiving, and it
looks like roughly twenty seven ish states did that. But
get this, and this is where I would do it.
(03:32):
There were three states that celebrated Thanksgiving twice back to
back weeks, which is insane because usually I'll do like
a Thanksgiving dinner or something like that in the middle
of the summer, like a halfway point. Sure, but to
do Thanksgiving dinner unless you're changing the meat, which is
a possibility, I guess back to back weeks, Banana Land.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
I think it's either twenty one or twenty two states.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
I was pretty close.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Yeah, it's so pretty fifty fifty split across the country.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
So the let's see the resolution to this. And by
the way, this was the most important thing happening in
the world in nineteen thirty nine, easily, What are we
gonna do for Thanksgiving? The resolution to settle the issue,
Congress passed a joint resolution in nineteen forty one, signed
by FDR, which officially declared Thanksgiving to be the fourth
(04:20):
Thursday in November.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
I would say, other than Christmas because that's the twenty fifth,
we all know that Thanksgiving is the only other holiday
that I definitively know the day of every year. That's it.
Those two.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
I mean, I think we have a possibility, and like
we should just talk this into existence. Christmas every day Okay,
now your son would love that, Like sign a bill.
I think it's a possibility someone could sign a bill
Christmas every day.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
So are you planning on buying raffie gifts? Three hundred
and sixty five gifts?
Speaker 1 (04:52):
Sure?
Speaker 2 (04:52):
Okay, you probably buy them that over the course.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
How you doing anyways? Yeah, he's an only child, spoiled.
I can't help but buy stuff. I love buying shit.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
It is satisfying to buy a child something and watch
them get great joy.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Oh my god, it's the best. And you know that
within five minutes he's not going to touch it. Undred
that initial face. That's what I want to see.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
He pays you back by not finishing his food, and
you get to finish his food.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
I eat so much of his food. But what what
a time in American history? Those three years were her
people didn't know what day to celebrate Thanksgiving, right, But
you and I we could celebrate Franksgiving by just eating
tons and tons of hot dogs.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Oh Wieners Wieners Giving. Yeah, you know, celebrating that later
your wife.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Oh nailed it? Or you know what I would do?
I would celebrate Anti franksgiving and just give hate to
all the people named Frank. Yeah, namely your friend.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
You would be you would be h I think if
you would be one of the top one percent celebrators
of anti Franks.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
Kidding, anti franksgiving.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
News doo.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
We are in November. We are coming up on the
end of November one more time. Please go in check
out anyone on the Movember page to donate. Will be
donating to R von D R.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Mowbro.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
He is a veteran. He is in the Hall of Fame.
Gotta give okay, veteran of movembers. He's a veteran of
move out of the Armed Service. No, but I'm talking
about Mowbrow in right now. I said Mobro first. When
I call it picture a veteran, I don't mean he's
a from the army.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
I never know with you, You're always talking about you know, army.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
I'm always talking about the military. I can't stop.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
I'm like Rangers, coast Guard? Do you count the coast Guard?
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Always I'm kind of like, what's his name from friendship?
Speaker 2 (06:36):
Connor?
Speaker 1 (06:36):
O'Malley, Oh were you in the forces?
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Now?
Speaker 1 (06:42):
News done?
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Give me a quick.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
Grade to mac and Goo episode three fifty three, sorry,
five thirty five, we're not on three something Wicked for
good good Fortune and the movie Materialists.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
Materialists, Materials? Did you do a third movie?
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Well, I can't put four titles in the episode in
the podcast title episode. That's crazy you put three in there, though,
I'd give it.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
As I gave Wicked solid B, solid B.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Hey minus, we were top notch in that episode, all right.
I had a great time.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Love that.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
For us, we're talking about extending legs.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Nothing more six inches to hider Hog. That's right, right
B plus I'll bump us up a grade.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
Also, And I thought for a second, so Will Campbell
went down with an injury in the Patriots, and I'm like,
I feel like he might be faking that to take
some time off to extend his arms.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Now, I mean, at least I would. I think I
would get the six inches on my forearm and not
not the upper arm.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Well, that'd be tough with the muscles.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
Yeah. And also like if you extend the by set area,
now it's gonna be harder to bench more. Right, you
want the shorter by.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
Set, but then you have these really long forearms.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
You want the shorter bys try so you can. You
can still put up heavy weights because if you extend
those muscles, there's more of a run, right, you know? Yeah,
but the short people always bench them.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
I want nice girthy forearms so I can land a
lady like like that Damsel and Distress Milfa Olive Oil.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Good point strug point.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
News dope over the box office. This past weekend, it
was a wicked time for a couple of whitches. Wicked
for Good over one hundred and fifty million domestic? Is
that what it was?
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Sure?
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Yeah, I don't have any of the numbers. I just
know Wicked took it home.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Oh come, you didn't do that. That's kind of rude.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
Well, Wicked took it home. I know that rent of
family landed fifth. All right, I got numbers for you
right here, give me some numbers.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Oh you know what, A little below, little below one
fifty one hundred and forty seven million for Wicked.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
It did beat out the original one though.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
Yeah, the original was one twenty four or one twelve.
It was one twelve. Now you see me? Now you
don't nine million, are you?
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Three?
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Predator Badland six and a half, The Running Man five
point seven and Rental Family three point three news Dumpe.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
Stranger Things starting up this week. If you were looking
to ignore your family during this holiday weekend, you have
five episodes to watch. We have details for Stranger Things.
This is via Culture Crave, a nice little graphic. We
don't do graphics.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
This is a nice little graphic. And also I considered
proposing to you doing like a Stranger Things ketchup. Hold
that there are plenty of youtubes and TikTok accounts out
there that do that better.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Dor did, did they?
Speaker 2 (09:27):
Okay, So there you go. You got dork and you
got some some YouTube folks and TikTok people that can
catch you up better than we can. And honestly, it's
been so long since season one and even since season four,
I the ketchup is so necessary, you absolutely need it.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
I was thinking about this the other day because of
Wicked filming both movies pretty much back to back, of
like during Stranger Things season two, so they already it
was a huge hit season one, and I understand that
you weren't sure about the future of this show at
that time. Once you knew it was a hit during
season two, you should have locked these kids up and
(10:04):
banged out four seasons as quick as possible. You don't
let them leave.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
I don't know how like, so they're doing that for
like the Harry Potter series, right, but eire locking.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
The children up.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
I don't well, I don't know how reasonable that would
be when kids still get school and this, that and
the other thing. You're gonna pay him boot.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
We've seen plenty of stories of child actors. They don't need.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
School, yeah, and then they all child actors all end
up as the nicest people on the planet.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Danny Bonaducci Partrid's family.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Correct, did they box Dustin Diamond?
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Is that Dustin Diamond? I feel like fucked him up?
Speaker 2 (10:37):
He may have, but there's a big size.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
One of them beat the other one up.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Ducci's obviously more muscular, but Dustin Diamond's gotta have a
foot on him.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
And Dustin Diamond had one of the weirdest adult videos.
He's dead. He's screeching in the sky, right, Diamond death.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Yeah, Dustin and the sky with You.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
Could just gone Diamonds in the sky because Dustin Diamond, But.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Well, no, the Diamonds is the second apart.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
Are you sure about that? Stranger Things details eight episodes
in this final season. The season will reveal what the
upside down really is. Okay, that's good, It's about time.
I mean yes, includes the most violent death of any season.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Who do you think that's gonna be?
Speaker 1 (11:17):
Who gets introduced in episode one of this season that
we're not going to care about.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
The only death I've cared about in this whole finale
or this whole uh series is Bob's in season two.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
He was a good one. People don't care about Barb.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Yeah, Bob, It'll probably be a bee based on that information.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
No one really cared about Ilja. Correct, But did Billy
die too?
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Bob, Barb, and Billy all died.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
I feel like Elsha died too, right, was there? Ilja?
Speaker 2 (11:42):
Sure? We just figured something out. He thinks has a
The Duffer brothers have a b thing.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Do you think I die this season?
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Possibly?
Speaker 1 (11:50):
I don't want that to happen. Ulmost it happens in
like the you know finale. I can wait that one out.
Let's see here. The goal is to make Vekna feel
under eatable, which I think they've already kind of done
with that. They were inspired by the villains in the
first two Terminator movies and Darth Vader in Rogue one.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
Yeah, I'll just throw it for Thanos. A little bit
of a of a thing there too, Like Thanos is
I think is now the standard, you know, the T
one thousand and Thanos.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
I do like this is every actor's last day on
set was their final scene in the show.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Ah, okay, I like that too.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
I know you like this because this is how much
money you have in your bank account. It is the
budget reportedly four hundred million dollars.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
That's a lot, but if you think about it, they're
essentially producing three movies with this final season, so if
you break that down, it's like one hundred and thirty
million per movie.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
The will Buyer's story will go full circle and explore
his connection to Vecna.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
I don't really care. Yeah, I'm curious what this is
really gonna be that if it's heavy on that, we're
probably gonna be a little disappointed.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
Eleven has better control over powers and uses them in
more innovative way. Most accurate example is probably the Force.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Sure it's not more like parkour?
Speaker 1 (13:07):
Parkour? And then she gets a lightsaber. Yes, that'd be great.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
Oh if shes out of lights in you know who?
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Actually, you know what? I kind of want Dustin to
get a lightsaber, a little Dusty two sacks get a lightsaber.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
Because he'd be like the fin this universe.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
Yeah, the cast was worried it would end like Game
of Thrones, but after reading the script they knew it
was something special.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
I do love that game of throwers getting shit on.
It has become the standard for shitty finishes.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
You know, while I I'm the glass half full guy,
you're the glass half empty. I would like to look
at the first five ish seasons of Game of Thrones
and say that was high quality A plus television. Let's
not focus on the bad stuff.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
I'm gonna start integrating that Game of Thrones reference into
other things, like, hey, you know, maybe we're having some
sexy time. And did it finish so great?
Speaker 1 (13:54):
I know thea Thrones the end got sloppy and rushed
and there was a Starbucks cup in the but like,
the middle part was really good.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
The middle part is so good.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
It took a while to get going, a little while
to get going.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
But I'm mouctivated, huh, captivated by cock.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
And then Ni Kappa, You're dictated. I dictated your Kappa
Kapa was dictated. There we go and the finale wraps
up the main characters stories, Vekna and the creatures of
the Upside Down.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
I'm hoping for greatness, Gill. I'm hoping for greatness.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
News Dope mentioned on our last episode our teenage Mutant
Ninja Turtles News. This is all with Paramount, who pretty
much just they own it, so they can do whatever
the fuck they want with the turtles. What has been green?
Lita is a villain? What is that? What do you say?
Speaker 2 (14:43):
The cops said they could do whatever they want.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
The villain forward film, the sequel to Mutant Mayhem, will
be released in September of twenty twenty seven. But I
will say their sequel series, Tales of the TMNT, I
think season two is coming out either now or soon.
That has been canceled. So it almost seems like they
might be trying to distance themselves from this animated series
(15:06):
that didn't make flag time of money. Sure, it takes
them a long time to make and the animation is tough.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
This lag time is unbelievable. We're trending into Spider Verse
territory with the lag time between movies here.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
What is in the works is a live action, family
friendly TMNT movie that will be helmed by Neil Moritz.
He of course did Fast and the Furious Sonic the Hedgehog.
So the goal is to Sonic afy the franchise.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
Sonic Fying stuff is okay, here's the difference. Though, Sonic
was sort of a fringe. You know. Obviously people are
not fans of Sonic Superstar, but Sonic was like a
fringe popularity compared to TMNT.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
Much, I'd say it's pretty similar, much more popular. So
I would say that during their peaks, TMNT he might
have had a bit of a higher peak. But Sonic
was able to dethrone Mario for years. That's a big
fucking peak.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
But then it crashed and burned as quickly as it
shined brightly.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Oh, it ran with whales in the Dreamcast. GMNT has,
you know, has never reached its popularity from the eighties again,
though I mean it has. It's did okay with its
three series. It did pretty good actually with its twenty
twelve series, but the movies have never gotten back to
what they were.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
It's Justice for Mega Man, Justice for Kirby. That's what
I want.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
You want to watch a Kirby movie.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
It's just some second up shit, Kirby Animated World is
what I need.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
And then finally, Shell Indefinitely is a live action rated R,
very very violent TMNT last Ronin movie focused on making
it super bloody and for adults. One source has said
the studio will possibly revisit this down the road.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
I mean, that's just what we all wanted.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
That's what I wanted.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
We've all been claring for the minute was announced we
were we were Gang Bush.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
To be fair, though, I would also take if it's
live action, it doesn't have to be last Ronin. It
just has to be as as gross and filthy looking
as the nineteen ninety movie.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
Instead of giving us what they want, they're just like,
let's try to make a gazillion dollars.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
Instead of giving people, let's make money. I understand that now.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
But if you give the people what they want, eventually
you're gonna make the gazillion dollars.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
We'll see about That's not why he's don't. Hugh Jackman,
when asked on The GN Show about potentially returning as
Wolverine in the Avengers films, he said, maybe, sorry, maybe
I never say never. I have a game. I have
done ten films now, so I think they have enough
(17:45):
for me to have an AI version on me.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
I didn't know Hugh Jackman joined Flood of the Concords.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
But was I to New Zealandy it I think, So,
can you do a better one right now?
Speaker 2 (17:55):
Sure can't, Sure can't. Crikey, that's just us true, that's
all shrimp. Jackman's gonna be back, for sure. At some point.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
Jackman's backman.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
I don't know what I want those for him to
pass the mantle. I want to see the next great Wolverine.
I don't know who it's gonna be, but like, if
they're gonna build the next Marvel Saga around the X Men,
it can't be around jack No, but.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
I feel like they're gonna have him, Toby Maguire, some
of those throwbacks. Even if it's not a ton of it,
they're gonna have a little bit of it.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
I agree, I agree he's dead.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
Kelsey Grammer was on ET Now and he was asked
which characters he was most geeked out to interact with
as Beast in Avengers Doomsday, and he said, oh, he said, whoever,
Pedro's playing like it's read Richards. Oh, yes, read Richards.
I had a great time with Pedro Pascal, wonderful guy.
(18:54):
I really really enjoyed hanging out with him.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
I don't have have a desire to ever hear what
Kelsey Grammer has to say about.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Anything unless he's singing the beautiful singing voice.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
I would rather listen to him sing than talk.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
What if he did a full Beast movie is singing
like Beast.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
He's a good character. I just don't want to hear
Kelsey Grammer talk about Beast.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
It was weird, like when they asked him and I
saw this interview online and when they said, oh, which
character like with a big smile on his face is
like Thor, I'm like, Oh, he's a big Thor guy.
Kind of makes sense if I would say that Fraser,
the character of Fraser, if he were to be into
one of these characters, it'd be it'd be Thorn, it
be Norris mythology.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Yeah, that's not that's not a bad way to take it.
I was just saying he'd end up liking like some obscure,
fucking sea level hero.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
Oh like his brother who played a sea creature and
hell boy Niles.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Look at you. Good connection.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
He's dumb. Turn off. Stop playing vitamin C. Well play
it out? What are we gonna do? You remember all
the times we had to get thank you for the
recorder of Vitamin C. I don't know why when you're
(20:12):
pushing the button on this board, if it starts playing
and you hit the button, it should just stop right.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
It's no, It's like your DJ you gotta hit it.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Mike Flanagan said that his version of clay Face was
inspired by Batman the Animated series. He hadn't seen Matt
Reeves Batman yet. That's okay, I don't Maybe I'd like
him to see that movie.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
It's a good movie.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
But what I'm really excited about though, He said that
that show the art, it's incredible and it holds up.
I completely agree. I love that episode Feet of Clay,
I believe is what it's called one of my favorite.
If you weren't here for the Batman the Animated series draft,
I can't recommend it because we had a real dufis
(20:57):
on that episode, but that I believe was in my
UH run of shows. I love that episode so much.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
So this is going to be in the DCU right
and not a part of Reeves's Batman or vice versa.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
I believe it's a part of possibly an else world
and it has nothing to do with anything.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
Okay, that might be good. That might be good. I
think there's definitely like a real meaty in emotional story ye,
which you can tell as we saw in the end.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Have you seen this episode? Of course, so people always
go to Heart of Ice as like the like point
is I think I one an ex. I think Heart
of Ice won on them, and Heart of Ice that
is like a real justice for a well known Batman visions.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
I would say that's like peak you.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
Know, emotional Batman storytelling.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
Yeah, emotional comic book story where it's still relatable.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
But heart of Clay or Clay of No, it's not
hard of Clay. Wouldn't call them both heart that'd be weird.
Uh feet of Clay like that episode. I like it's
also very relatable, very human. Of this act tragic and
I think.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
That's tragic and makes a villain or an anti hero
more endearing. Is always great.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
I highly recommend let me find my old draft. I'll
find my episodes, and I'll recut the episode just with
my voice.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
Okay, all right, news done.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
Speaking of Batman, one of their former directors, Christopher Nolan
praises Matt Damon's performance in the Odyssey Mac. What did
Christopher Nolan say?
Speaker 2 (22:32):
Christopher Nolan said, even knowing what a great actor Matt is,
where's the voice? There are moments that have actually shocked
me in his performance. He's so dialed into this character,
in the meaning of it and themes behind it and
emotions underneath it. Matt went to the mat with this one.
To the Matt you.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Know, Matt, Matt, Matt, Matt, Matt via Matt Matt, Matt Empire,
Matt Maw.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
I think there's a movie goo that we've all seen,
The Martian that really shouldn't be that great, and it's
fucking great because Matt Damon is so good.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
I think I won Best Comedy at the Golden Globes.
Speaker 2 (23:11):
That did.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
We'll get to that in a second.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
I'm excited to see Damon like unleashed again. He's been
playing a lot of fun roles recently, are a little
or more subdued roles. I'm excited to see a dramatic
Matt dams.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
What if they changed the title of the Odyssey to
Damon Unleashed? Would that bring you to the theater faster
or the same pace.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
I mean, we've talked about it before. I haven't talked
about it in a while, but the Bourne movies are
some of my favorite and it's because Matt Damon fucking
crushes them.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
Did you ever see the Matt Damon Ben Affleck Adam
Driver French movie No, whether they were really Scott, Yeah?
Speaker 2 (23:47):
I did not. I never kept seeing it.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
I think that was Matt Damon unleased.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
Sorry to disappoint you, but.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
Honest, he's gonna be great. True, honest, he's gonna be great.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
News do.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Speaking of greatness, Brendan Fraser says The Mummy four is
the sequel he's always wanted to make, saying, I've been
waiting twenty years for this call. It's time to give
the fans what they want.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
This is from the Brendan Fraser should be working for
TM and T. I don't think this movie's gonna be
any good, but it certainly needs good. It can be fun,
It can be fun. I also am concerned that Brennan
Fraser just doesn't like he could have been spearheading this.
He didn't have to wait for folks.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
So he actually couldn't. I would advise you to go
to Google and see what happened to him for about
twenty years in Hollywood. He was black bald.
Speaker 2 (24:38):
Well coming off the whale. He could have been like.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Oh yeah know, so that's that was his return to Hollywood.
But he was blackballed in Hollywood for roughly twenty years
for going against the four Press. So I'm just saying
Fraser had a rough time. He also up fun fact
hashtag my Fraser fun fact. Well, Kelsey Grammer's my Fraser. Uh, whoa,
I'm joking, Brendan Fraser's my numb one. Don't you dare
do that to me?
Speaker 2 (25:01):
Ever?
Speaker 1 (25:01):
Again, Brendan Fraser has said this On the set of
The Mummy won during that Hangman scene he died.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
He definitely didn't, No.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
He said he was.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
He went out the probably passed out, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
No, and someone brought it back there like you left
us for like five seconds there.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
I agree with that.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Well, talk to Brendan Fraser about it.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
Apparently he can only talk to him when you call him,
so he doesn't call you. He didn't call anyone about
the Mummy. He's not gonna call me about that.
Speaker 1 (25:28):
Well, what if he is one of those phones that
only takes phone calls?
Speaker 2 (25:31):
I don't think those exist.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
I actually had one of those for years. But my
phone also couldn't take phone calls. It was just a
phone that couldn't make or receive calls.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
It was actually a tablet.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
It was just a pretty much. He also, and I
brought up that story because someone asked him. They're like,
aren't you concerned about dying again? And he's like, no,
we have stunt men now, which I'd say you had
stunt men back then too.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
Yeah, true news dump.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
And finally, let's get to Verty has put out their
one hundred greatest Comedies of all time. Let me give
you the top ten. You can give me a yay
or nay if you believe the top ten. This is
the top ten. Oh god, at number ten, Groundhog Day.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
It's good. That's very good. It's a classic.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
Number nine, Young Frankenstein. That's a classic. I'll all out
number eights. These are all in letters for some reason. Fargo,
you know I.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
Got I got nothing bad to say about Fargo.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
Number seven, duck Soup, What the fuck is duck soup?
Number six Monty Python in the Holy Grail.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
I love that movie.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
Number five Waiting for Guffman.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
I've actually not seen Guffman.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
Go number four The Great Dictator?
Speaker 2 (26:45):
What movie is that?
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Number three? Annie Hall? And at number two some like
it hot also have not seen that. Should I finish
the countdown or just end it at number two?
Speaker 2 (26:56):
Picking this as number one is clinically.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Do you want my reasoning for it? I would like
to hear your reasoning. So at number one is the
Naked Gun from the files of Police Squad. I think
they chose this not because they believe this is the
greatest comedy of all time. Sure, they put it there
because consensus says really good comedy, and it's definitely in
the category of comedy. By putting this there, they could
(27:23):
then go willy nilly and really play with the rules
throughout the rest of the list and be like, well
I think that so and so should be here, and
you're like, well, this list kind of stinks, and then
you go, well, now look at number one. That's a
real comedy.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
Yeah, I guess.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
I mean, I think it's just them covering their act, not.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
A single comedy post two thousand.
Speaker 1 (27:45):
So I was looking at it. Super Bad came in
at number twenty. I love super Bad.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
Where's Stepbrothers on this?
Speaker 1 (27:50):
Where's Borat Borat was like number twenty seven.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
I mean those are all those three are top ten
comedies anyway you build it.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
You know, like nineteen twenty four's sure Locke Junior.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
No, I wouldn't. I wouldn't put a vote in for that.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
How about TUTSI?
Speaker 2 (28:05):
I also would not put a vote in for that.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
You love doctor Strange? Love that was I think as.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
A general consensus gu and this is why critics are
fucking dummies. Comedy is like always advancing and always getting better,
Like newer comedies are always funnier than the older comedies,
like go back, go back to Uh good? What's the
movie that you hate about? Golf of Bill Murray?
Speaker 1 (28:26):
Caddy Shack? I love Caddy Shack. You hate Caddy Shack?
Speaker 2 (28:28):
Fuck you. Caddyshack's not very funny. Cady Sack is not
very funny.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
Especially in the first half when all the yucks.
Speaker 2 (28:34):
Are Caddy Shack is not very funny.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
How about nineteen thirty four? Is It Happened One Night?
That's number nineteen, just ahead a super bad Sure sure,
Now I'm not a huge fan of this list. Uh
the Bank Dick nineteen forty that's at twenty one, Caddy
Shack is twenty two. Trouble in Paradise from nineteen thirty
two is at twenty three. They didn't even know people
weren't allowed to laugh when movies were in black and white?
Speaker 2 (29:00):
Know how to?
Speaker 1 (29:00):
They didn't know how to. They saw the world in
black and white. Bride's Maids at twenty four. That's a
good one.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Yeah, Bride'smaids is solid.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
I mean borat his twenty six, I mean at two,
this is this one got me annoyed. Took at number
twenty eight is Richard Pryor Live in concert.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
It's not a movie. I yeah, so if that shit counts,
then all stand up specials should get well.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
It had to be in theaters, so like Kevin Hart's
stand up should be in there.
Speaker 2 (29:28):
I mean this is.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
At number thirty is Austin Power's International Man of Mystery.
And just behind that at number thirty one is Pink Flamingos.
Pink Flamingos is an experimental John Waters movie that I'm
gonna say this not funny. I understand, like its importance
and its relevance not funny.
Speaker 2 (29:49):
I think we could very easily come up with a
much much better list than what for fucking variety came.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
Up Edwood at thirty six. I like Edward best ca
vomites of all time? Yeah, come on, Princess Bride. Not
bad the Nutty Professor, but the one from nineteen sixty three?
What the fuck is wrong with you?
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Justice for Eddie Murphy and also Meet the Clumps better
than the first one.
Speaker 2 (30:17):
Sure about that?
Speaker 1 (30:17):
Meet the Clumps is hysterical. He is roughly seven to
eight characters. There's a scene where he thinks that he's
turning into his dad and he burns down a restaurant
because he farts into a candle. Sure sure, clueless thirty
nine zooland or forty The Beatles, Hard Day Night. What
are we doing?
Speaker 2 (30:38):
Sorry, I'm distracted here.
Speaker 1 (30:39):
I know I can tell I don't know what you're
doing right now? Team America. That's good, missus. Doubt fire
coming to America. It's okay. What's number fifty? Let's say
number fifty.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
It's the abomination. This this is a fucking no.
Speaker 1 (30:49):
Never mind redemption, We're back number fifty.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
The water Boy, I mean yeah, a lack of Sandler
throughout this as well, Like, what are we doing?
Speaker 1 (30:59):
Give me good? Like that? Taggle Woods than his daddy Elf.
Fifty four, Oh, criminally low. That's the highest Will Ferrell movie.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
That's insane. Now, I might have Elf two or three
for Will Farrell movies, but to have Will Ferrell, who
dominated dominated comedy for a decade or more, at fifty three.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
Also, let's say this like, we think Elf might be
one of his better movies, but looking at it as
a comedy compared to Anchorman or to step Brothers, what
are we doing?
Speaker 2 (31:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (31:34):
Airplane at sixty two? Airplanes better than Naked Gun.
Speaker 2 (31:38):
I mean it is a movie. I know that a.
Speaker 1 (31:40):
Fish called Hwanda, Eddie Murphy raw another stand up special.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
This is ridiculous, This.
Speaker 1 (31:46):
Less sucks Ace Venture a pet Detective. Finally at sixty nine. Nice, Nice,
I don't care for this list. No, how do you
feel about that?
Speaker 2 (31:55):
Mac? I think it's a fucking terrible list.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
I guess should we do our top one hundred comedies,
even though we are already did episodes dedicated to eras
in decades?
Speaker 2 (32:04):
We absolutely could do that, but again and again, I.
Speaker 1 (32:06):
Mean, did that if we did our top comedies, because
we've already done top nineties, aunts and twenty tens, I
feel like our top one hundred would just be those
lists and would add some eighties movies.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
It's fair, it's fair. Has Dork done the comedies list?
Speaker 1 (32:24):
No, but we did top fifty movies.
Speaker 2 (32:26):
Yeah, we did that, and then we did horror movies.
News Dump.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
All right, that'll do it for this episode of news Dump.
This might be the only new thing you're getting from
us this week.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
Yeah. Enjoy your holidays, folks, enjoy your stuffing.
Speaker 1 (32:40):
Yes, as we get older, Mac has four Christmases and
I gotta spend time with my family.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
Sure, no, I get I did not when we started
this podcast ten years ago. I did not appreciate the
holidays as much as I do now. And I really
truly appreciate them now, and I'm sure most of our
listeners do. It's fun to hang out and see people
that you don't see that often. You know, share beverage
or two, smash your face with some stuffing. It's a
great day.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
I mean, I see the same people that I'm gonna
see on Thanksgiving every Sunday.
Speaker 2 (33:10):
But what you could still have a met some change
up your day and have some devil diggs.
Speaker 1 (33:22):
I don't think devil diggs are available at my parents
as ask Brenda to make him. It's too late. I
would have had to have asked him three weeks ago.
I asked him for something on Friday night, and I'm like, hey,
I see that you're going to Iggy's. Can you grab
me a franchisey? You would have had to have ordered
that weeks ago, Like can you just call and ask?
(33:42):
He called. Guess what they had it? Yeah, they have it.
They're gonna give it to us because we're gonna give
him money for their bread. Yes, yeah, I can't wait.
I am gonna I'm gonna taint that Iggy's bread. I'm
gonna take my hand. I'm gonna wash it first. Then
I'm gonna scoop out the insides ye and put all
that Thanksgiving.

Speaker 1 (33:59):
Oh my god, I can't wait for my mush sandwich.
Speaker 2 (34:01):
I'm just excited for three pounds of stuffing.
Speaker 1 (34:03):
As I mentioned, I love stuffing so much. Everyone loves stuffing.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
That's the best part of things.
Speaker 1 (34:06):
It really is. All right, So check us out. We'll
have a re release during Thanksgiving though. Our draft max

old Batman the animated series. Draft and figure that out.

The one with the Gray Ghost with Adam West. That's
(34:29):
a great episode. Over the Edge, that's the Batgirl episode
where they think that Batgirl has been killed. I'm not
going to spoil it. Justice for Barb, Justice for Barb.
And Commissioner Gordon he is hunting down the bat family
because he thinks that Batman is responsible for this. Oh
my god, I love that show. Am I gonna watch?
Speaker 2 (34:46):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (34:46):
You know what, though we don't talk enough about this,
Batman Beyond also great, Batman Beyond is the.
Speaker 2 (34:54):
Other thing we've been clamoring four for years. Give us that.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
Give us a Batman Beyond Ninja Turtles movie and I'll
be thrilled.
Speaker 2 (35:00):
Then.
Speaker 1 (35:00):

Speaker 1 (00:33):
We're gonna start writing headlines again soon.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
Yeah, you know, it's life. You know, sometimes you run
out of time and that's that happens. We go live
and we're.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
Like, oh, like, oh no, we forgot to do this.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
You did okay? Thank you as fun as me, but.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
You, well, you're always more fun than me. People always

thick mustache.
Speaker 2 (00:58):

Speaker 2 (01:10):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
How about you?
Speaker 2 (01:11):
I'm going to three potentially four destinations?
Speaker 1 (01:13):
You idiot, You dummy, you still.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
You know, I'm fostering a new loving relationship here, so
I gotta do what's asked of me.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
It reminds me of the movie Four Christmases?
Speaker 2 (01:23):
Does it? Does it? Really? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Because they have Four Christmases in my Reese Witherspoon or
Vince Vaughn is Jon Favreau in that one say he
is one of the brothers. And then there's the wife.
I'm gonna guess Kristin shennow With. For some reason, she
is in that. I think I think she is in that.
She's also in Deck the Halls.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
I don't like her.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
No, I don't care for her either. But you're the og.
You're a wicked boy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't care
for Wicked. Is the Boston movie by the way.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Wicked, Wicked, Wicked for good Light.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
So while watching a YouTube video done by Big Tug,
he mentioned on Black Friday there used to be something
called Frank's Giving. Did you have you heard of this?
Speaker 2 (02:05):
What does Big Tug specialize in?
Speaker 1 (02:07):
He just does commentaries usually twice a week, twenty ish minutes.
That's a great name, Big Tug, Big Tug. I wish
your name, Big Tug. This podcast would have taken off.
If your name was big Tug.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Are you more into little tugs?
Speaker 1 (02:21):
Oh, mil tug liilt tug, good and lilte. Have you
heard of Frank's Giving? You're a history boy.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
Not a clue. Never heard of this. I saw this.
I opened this to your note here, and I said, wow,
that's a nice little fun fact.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
It's crazy. So in nineteen thirty nine, FDR wanted to
stimulate the economy, wanted to get the Christmas shoppers out early,
and he moved Thanksgiving up one week to get people
buying gifts that one week earlier. And during that time
the nation was split unlike any other time in this
(02:57):
Country's his real divisive. Yeah, so there were the point
of there was new Franksgiving. It looks like, let's say
twenty states celebrated that.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Don't want to count for you?
Speaker 1 (03:08):
You can count while I'm doing this one?
Speaker 2 (03:10):
Which color am I counting here?
Speaker 1 (03:11):
You're counting orange? I would call that red? But yes,
all right, what's wrong with your eyes? That's orange? That's
red for sure. Then we go to traditional Thanksgiving, which
is the actual week, it's the fourth Thanksgiving, and it
looks like roughly twenty seven ish states did that. But
get this, and this is where I would do it.
(03:32):
There were three states that celebrated Thanksgiving twice back to
back weeks, which is insane because usually I'll do like
a Thanksgiving dinner or something like that in the middle
of the summer, like a halfway point. Sure, but to
do Thanksgiving dinner unless you're changing the meat, which is
a possibility, I guess back to back weeks, Banana Land.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
I think it's either twenty one or twenty two states.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
I was pretty close.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Yeah, it's so pretty fifty fifty split across the country.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
So the let's see the resolution to this. And by
the way, this was the most important thing happening in
the world in nineteen thirty nine, easily, What are we
gonna do for Thanksgiving? The resolution to settle the issue,
Congress passed a joint resolution in nineteen forty one, signed
by FDR, which officially declared Thanksgiving to be the fourth
(04:20):
Thursday in November.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
I would say, other than Christmas because that's the twenty fifth,
we all know that Thanksgiving is the only other holiday
that I definitively know the day of every year. That's it.
Those two.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
I mean, I think we have a possibility, and like
we should just talk this into existence. Christmas every day Okay,
now your son would love that, Like sign a bill.
I think it's a possibility someone could sign a bill
Christmas every day.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
So are you planning on buying raffie gifts? Three hundred
and sixty five gifts?
Speaker 1 (04:52):
Sure?
Speaker 2 (04:52):
Okay, you probably buy them that over the course.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
How you doing anyways? Yeah, he's an only child, spoiled.
I can't help but buy stuff. I love buying shit.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
It is satisfying to buy a child something and watch
them get great joy.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Oh my god, it's the best. And you know that
within five minutes he's not going to touch it. Undred
that initial face. That's what I want to see.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
He pays you back by not finishing his food, and
you get to finish his food.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
I eat so much of his food. But what what
a time in American history? Those three years were her
people didn't know what day to celebrate Thanksgiving, right, But
you and I we could celebrate Franksgiving by just eating
tons and tons of hot dogs.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Oh Wieners Wieners Giving. Yeah, you know, celebrating that later
your wife.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Oh nailed it? Or you know what I would do?
I would celebrate Anti franksgiving and just give hate to
all the people named Frank. Yeah, namely your friend.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
You would be you would be h I think if
you would be one of the top one percent celebrators
of anti Franks.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
Kidding, anti franksgiving.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
News doo.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
We are in November. We are coming up on the
end of November one more time. Please go in check
out anyone on the Movember page to donate. Will be

Gotta give okay, veteran of movembers. He's a veteran of
move out of the Armed Service. No, but I'm talking
about Mowbrow in right now. I said Mobro first. When
I call it picture a veteran, I don't mean he's
a from the army.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
I never know with you, You're always talking about you know, army.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
I'm always talking about the military. I can't stop.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
I'm like Rangers, coast Guard? Do you count the coast Guard?
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Always I'm kind of like, what's his name from friendship?
Speaker 2 (06:36):
Connor?
Speaker 1 (06:36):
O'Malley, Oh were you in the forces?
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Now?
Speaker 1 (06:42):
News done?
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Give me a quick.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
Grade to mac and Goo episode three fifty three, sorry,
five thirty five, we're not on three something Wicked for
good good Fortune and the movie Materialists.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
Materialists, Materials? Did you do a third movie?
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Well, I can't put four titles in the episode in
the podcast title episode. That's crazy you put three in there, though,
I'd give it.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
As I gave Wicked solid B, solid B.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Hey minus, we were top notch in that episode, all right.
I had a great time.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Love that.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
For us, we're talking about extending legs.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Nothing more six inches to hider Hog. That's right, right
B plus I'll bump us up a grade.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
Also, And I thought for a second, so Will Campbell
went down with an injury in the Patriots, and I'm like,
I feel like he might be faking that to take
some time off to extend his arms.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Now, I mean, at least I would. I think I
would get the six inches on my forearm and not
not the upper arm.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Well, that'd be tough with the muscles.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
Yeah. And also like if you extend the by set area,
now it's gonna be harder to bench more. Right, you
want the shorter by.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
Set, but then you have these really long forearms.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
You want the shorter bys try so you can. You
can still put up heavy weights because if you extend
those muscles, there's more of a run, right, you know? Yeah,
but the short people always bench them.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
I want nice girthy forearms so I can land a
lady like like that Damsel and Distress Milfa Olive Oil.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Good point strug point.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
News dope over the box office. This past weekend, it
was a wicked time for a couple of whitches. Wicked
for Good over one hundred and fifty million domestic? Is
that what it was?
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Sure?
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Yeah, I don't have any of the numbers. I just
know Wicked took it home.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Oh come, you didn't do that. That's kind of rude.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
Well, Wicked took it home. I know that rent of
family landed fifth. All right, I got numbers for you
right here, give me some numbers.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Oh you know what, A little below, little below one
fifty one hundred and forty seven million for Wicked.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
It did beat out the original one though.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
Yeah, the original was one twenty four or one twelve.
It was one twelve. Now you see me? Now you
don't nine million, are you?
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Three?
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Predator Badland six and a half, The Running Man five
point seven and Rental Family three point three news Dumpe.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
Stranger Things starting up this week. If you were looking
to ignore your family during this holiday weekend, you have
five episodes to watch. We have details for Stranger Things.
This is via Culture Crave, a nice little graphic. We
don't do graphics.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
This is a nice little graphic. And also I considered
proposing to you doing like a Stranger Things ketchup. Hold
that there are plenty of youtubes and TikTok accounts out
there that do that better.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Dor did, did they?
Speaker 2 (09:27):
Okay, So there you go. You got dork and you
got some some YouTube folks and TikTok people that can
catch you up better than we can. And honestly, it's
been so long since season one and even since season four,
I the ketchup is so necessary, you absolutely need it.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
I was thinking about this the other day because of
Wicked filming both movies pretty much back to back, of
like during Stranger Things season two, so they already it
was a huge hit season one, and I understand that
you weren't sure about the future of this show at
that time. Once you knew it was a hit during
season two, you should have locked these kids up and
(10:04):
banged out four seasons as quick as possible. You don't
let them leave.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
I don't know how like, so they're doing that for
like the Harry Potter series, right, but eire locking.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
The children up.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
I don't well, I don't know how reasonable that would
be when kids still get school and this, that and
the other thing. You're gonna pay him boot.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
We've seen plenty of stories of child actors. They don't need.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
School, yeah, and then they all child actors all end
up as the nicest people on the planet.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Danny Bonaducci Partrid's family.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Correct, did they box Dustin Diamond?
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Is that Dustin Diamond? I feel like fucked him up?
Speaker 2 (10:37):
He may have, but there's a big size.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
One of them beat the other one up.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Ducci's obviously more muscular, but Dustin Diamond's gotta have a
foot on him.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
And Dustin Diamond had one of the weirdest adult videos.
He's dead. He's screeching in the sky, right, Diamond death.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Yeah, Dustin and the sky with You.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
Could just gone Diamonds in the sky because Dustin Diamond, But.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Well, no, the Diamonds is the second apart.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
Are you sure about that? Stranger Things details eight episodes
in this final season. The season will reveal what the
upside down really is. Okay, that's good, It's about time.
I mean yes, includes the most violent death of any season.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Who do you think that's gonna be?
Speaker 1 (11:17):
Who gets introduced in episode one of this season that
we're not going to care about.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
The only death I've cared about in this whole finale
or this whole uh series is Bob's in season two.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
He was a good one. People don't care about Barb.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Yeah, Bob, It'll probably be a bee based on that information.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
No one really cared about Ilja. Correct, But did Billy
die too?
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Bob, Barb, and Billy all died.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
I feel like Elsha died too, right, was there? Ilja?
Speaker 2 (11:42):
Sure? We just figured something out. He thinks has a
The Duffer brothers have a b thing.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Do you think I die this season?
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Possibly?
Speaker 1 (11:50):
I don't want that to happen. Ulmost it happens in
like the you know finale. I can wait that one out.
Let's see here. The goal is to make Vekna feel
under eatable, which I think they've already kind of done
with that. They were inspired by the villains in the
first two Terminator movies and Darth Vader in Rogue one.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
Yeah, I'll just throw it for Thanos. A little bit
of a of a thing there too, Like Thanos is
I think is now the standard, you know, the T
one thousand and Thanos.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
I do like this is every actor's last day on
set was their final scene in the show.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Ah, okay, I like that too.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
I know you like this because this is how much
money you have in your bank account. It is the
budget reportedly four hundred million dollars.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
That's a lot, but if you think about it, they're
essentially producing three movies with this final season, so if
you break that down, it's like one hundred and thirty
million per movie.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
The will Buyer's story will go full circle and explore
his connection to Vecna.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
I don't really care. Yeah, I'm curious what this is
really gonna be that if it's heavy on that, we're
probably gonna be a little disappointed.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
Eleven has better control over powers and uses them in
more innovative way. Most accurate example is probably the Force.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Sure it's not more like parkour?
Speaker 1 (13:07):
Parkour? And then she gets a lightsaber. Yes, that'd be great.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
Oh if shes out of lights in you know who?
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Actually, you know what? I kind of want Dustin to
get a lightsaber, a little Dusty two sacks get a lightsaber.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
Because he'd be like the fin this universe.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
Yeah, the cast was worried it would end like Game
of Thrones, but after reading the script they knew it
was something special.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
I do love that game of throwers getting shit on.
It has become the standard for shitty finishes.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
You know, while I I'm the glass half full guy,
you're the glass half empty. I would like to look
at the first five ish seasons of Game of Thrones
and say that was high quality A plus television. Let's
not focus on the bad stuff.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
I'm gonna start integrating that Game of Thrones reference into
other things, like, hey, you know, maybe we're having some
sexy time. And did it finish so great?
Speaker 1 (13:54):
I know thea Thrones the end got sloppy and rushed
and there was a Starbucks cup in the but like,
the middle part was really good.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
The middle part is so good.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
It took a while to get going, a little while
to get going.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
But I'm mouctivated, huh, captivated by cock.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
And then Ni Kappa, You're dictated. I dictated your Kappa
Kapa was dictated. There we go and the finale wraps
up the main characters stories, Vekna and the creatures of
the Upside Down.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
I'm hoping for greatness, Gill. I'm hoping for greatness.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
News Dope mentioned on our last episode our teenage Mutant
Ninja Turtles News. This is all with Paramount, who pretty
much just they own it, so they can do whatever
the fuck they want with the turtles. What has been green?
Lita is a villain? What is that? What do you say?
Speaker 2 (14:43):
The cops said they could do whatever they want.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
The villain forward film, the sequel to Mutant Mayhem, will
be released in September of twenty twenty seven. But I
will say their sequel series, Tales of the TMNT, I
think season two is coming out either now or soon.
That has been canceled. So it almost seems like they
might be trying to distance themselves from this animated series
(15:06):
that didn't make flag time of money. Sure, it takes
them a long time to make and the animation is tough.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
This lag time is unbelievable. We're trending into Spider Verse
territory with the lag time between movies here.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
What is in the works is a live action, family
friendly TMNT movie that will be helmed by Neil Moritz.
He of course did Fast and the Furious Sonic the Hedgehog.
So the goal is to Sonic afy the franchise.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
Sonic Fying stuff is okay, here's the difference. Though, Sonic
was sort of a fringe. You know. Obviously people are
not fans of Sonic Superstar, but Sonic was like a
fringe popularity compared to TMNT.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
Much, I'd say it's pretty similar, much more popular. So
I would say that during their peaks, TMNT he might
have had a bit of a higher peak. But Sonic
was able to dethrone Mario for years. That's a big
fucking peak.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
But then it crashed and burned as quickly as it
shined brightly.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Oh, it ran with whales in the Dreamcast. GMNT has,
you know, has never reached its popularity from the eighties again,
though I mean it has. It's did okay with its
three series. It did pretty good actually with its twenty
twelve series, but the movies have never gotten back to
what they were.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
It's Justice for Mega Man, Justice for Kirby. That's what
I want.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
You want to watch a Kirby movie.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
It's just some second up shit, Kirby Animated World is
what I need.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
And then finally, Shell Indefinitely is a live action rated R,
very very violent TMNT last Ronin movie focused on making
it super bloody and for adults. One source has said
the studio will possibly revisit this down the road.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
I mean, that's just what we all wanted.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
That's what I wanted.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
We've all been claring for the minute was announced we
were we were Gang Bush.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
To be fair, though, I would also take if it's
live action, it doesn't have to be last Ronin. It
just has to be as as gross and filthy looking
as the nineteen ninety movie.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
Instead of giving us what they want, they're just like,
let's try to make a gazillion dollars.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
Instead of giving people, let's make money. I understand that now.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
But if you give the people what they want, eventually
you're gonna make the gazillion dollars.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
We'll see about That's not why he's don't. Hugh Jackman,
when asked on The GN Show about potentially returning as
Wolverine in the Avengers films, he said, maybe, sorry, maybe
I never say never. I have a game. I have
done ten films now, so I think they have enough
(17:45):
for me to have an AI version on me.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
I didn't know Hugh Jackman joined Flood of the Concords.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
But was I to New Zealandy it I think, So,
can you do a better one right now?
Speaker 2 (17:55):
Sure can't, Sure can't. Crikey, that's just us true, that's
all shrimp. Jackman's gonna be back, for sure. At some point.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
Jackman's backman.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
I don't know what I want those for him to
pass the mantle. I want to see the next great Wolverine.
I don't know who it's gonna be, but like, if
they're gonna build the next Marvel Saga around the X Men,
it can't be around jack No, but.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
I feel like they're gonna have him, Toby Maguire, some
of those throwbacks. Even if it's not a ton of it,
they're gonna have a little bit of it.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
I agree, I agree he's dead.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
Kelsey Grammer was on ET Now and he was asked
which characters he was most geeked out to interact with
as Beast in Avengers Doomsday, and he said, oh, he said, whoever,
Pedro's playing like it's read Richards. Oh, yes, read Richards.
I had a great time with Pedro Pascal, wonderful guy.
(18:54):
I really really enjoyed hanging out with him.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
I don't have have a desire to ever hear what
Kelsey Grammer has to say about.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Anything unless he's singing the beautiful singing voice.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
I would rather listen to him sing than talk.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
What if he did a full Beast movie is singing
like Beast.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
He's a good character. I just don't want to hear
Kelsey Grammer talk about Beast.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
It was weird, like when they asked him and I
saw this interview online and when they said, oh, which
character like with a big smile on his face is
like Thor, I'm like, Oh, he's a big Thor guy.
Kind of makes sense if I would say that Fraser,
the character of Fraser, if he were to be into
one of these characters, it'd be it'd be Thorn, it
be Norris mythology.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Yeah, that's not that's not a bad way to take it.
I was just saying he'd end up liking like some obscure,
fucking sea level hero.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
Oh like his brother who played a sea creature and
hell boy Niles.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Look at you. Good connection.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
He's dumb. Turn off. Stop playing vitamin C. Well play
it out? What are we gonna do? You remember all
the times we had to get thank you for the
recorder of Vitamin C. I don't know why when you're
(20:12):
pushing the button on this board, if it starts playing
and you hit the button, it should just stop right.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
It's no, It's like your DJ you gotta hit it.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Mike Flanagan said that his version of clay Face was
inspired by Batman the Animated series. He hadn't seen Matt
Reeves Batman yet. That's okay, I don't Maybe I'd like
him to see that movie.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
It's a good movie.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
But what I'm really excited about though, He said that
that show the art, it's incredible and it holds up.
I completely agree. I love that episode Feet of Clay,
I believe is what it's called one of my favorite.
If you weren't here for the Batman the Animated series draft,
I can't recommend it because we had a real dufis
(20:57):
on that episode, but that I believe was in my
UH run of shows. I love that episode so much.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
So this is going to be in the DCU right
and not a part of Reeves's Batman or vice versa.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
I believe it's a part of possibly an else world
and it has nothing to do with anything.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
Okay, that might be good. That might be good. I
think there's definitely like a real meaty in emotional story ye,
which you can tell as we saw in the end.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Have you seen this episode? Of course, so people always
go to Heart of Ice as like the like point
is I think I one an ex. I think Heart
of Ice won on them, and Heart of Ice that
is like a real justice for a well known Batman visions.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
I would say that's like peak you.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
Know, emotional Batman storytelling.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
Yeah, emotional comic book story where it's still relatable.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
But heart of Clay or Clay of No, it's not
hard of Clay. Wouldn't call them both heart that'd be weird.
Uh feet of Clay like that episode. I like it's
also very relatable, very human. Of this act tragic and
I think.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
That's tragic and makes a villain or an anti hero
more endearing. Is always great.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
I highly recommend let me find my old draft. I'll
find my episodes, and I'll recut the episode just with
my voice.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
Okay, all right, news done.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
Speaking of Batman, one of their former directors, Christopher Nolan
praises Matt Damon's performance in the Odyssey Mac. What did
Christopher Nolan say?
Speaker 2 (22:32):
Christopher Nolan said, even knowing what a great actor Matt is,
where's the voice? There are moments that have actually shocked
me in his performance. He's so dialed into this character,
in the meaning of it and themes behind it and
emotions underneath it. Matt went to the mat with this one.
To the Matt you.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Know, Matt, Matt, Matt, Matt, Matt via Matt Matt, Matt Empire,
Matt Maw.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
I think there's a movie goo that we've all seen,
The Martian that really shouldn't be that great, and it's
fucking great because Matt Damon is so good.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
I think I won Best Comedy at the Golden Globes.
Speaker 2 (23:11):
That did.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
We'll get to that in a second.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
I'm excited to see Damon like unleashed again. He's been
playing a lot of fun roles recently, are a little
or more subdued roles. I'm excited to see a dramatic
Matt dams.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
What if they changed the title of the Odyssey to
Damon Unleashed? Would that bring you to the theater faster
or the same pace.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
I mean, we've talked about it before. I haven't talked
about it in a while, but the Bourne movies are
some of my favorite and it's because Matt Damon fucking
crushes them.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
Did you ever see the Matt Damon Ben Affleck Adam
Driver French movie No, whether they were really Scott, Yeah?
Speaker 2 (23:47):
I did not. I never kept seeing it.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
I think that was Matt Damon unleased.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
Sorry to disappoint you, but.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
Honest, he's gonna be great. True, honest, he's gonna be great.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
News do.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Speaking of greatness, Brendan Fraser says The Mummy four is
the sequel he's always wanted to make, saying, I've been
waiting twenty years for this call. It's time to give
the fans what they want.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
This is from the Brendan Fraser should be working for
TM and T. I don't think this movie's gonna be
any good, but it certainly needs good. It can be fun,
It can be fun. I also am concerned that Brennan
Fraser just doesn't like he could have been spearheading this.
He didn't have to wait for folks.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
So he actually couldn't. I would advise you to go
to Google and see what happened to him for about
twenty years in Hollywood. He was black bald.
Speaker 2 (24:38):
Well coming off the whale. He could have been like.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Oh yeah know, so that's that was his return to Hollywood.
But he was blackballed in Hollywood for roughly twenty years
for going against the four Press. So I'm just saying
Fraser had a rough time. He also up fun fact
hashtag my Fraser fun fact. Well, Kelsey Grammer's my Fraser. Uh, whoa,
I'm joking, Brendan Fraser's my numb one. Don't you dare
do that to me?
Speaker 2 (25:01):
Ever?
Speaker 1 (25:01):
Again, Brendan Fraser has said this On the set of
The Mummy won during that Hangman scene he died.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
He definitely didn't, No.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
He said he was.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
He went out the probably passed out, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
No, and someone brought it back there like you left
us for like five seconds there.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
I agree with that.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Well, talk to Brendan Fraser about it.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
Apparently he can only talk to him when you call him,
so he doesn't call you. He didn't call anyone about
the Mummy. He's not gonna call me about that.
Speaker 1 (25:28):
Well, what if he is one of those phones that
only takes phone calls?
Speaker 2 (25:31):
I don't think those exist.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
I actually had one of those for years. But my
phone also couldn't take phone calls. It was just a
phone that couldn't make or receive calls.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
It was actually a tablet.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
It was just a pretty much. He also, and I
brought up that story because someone asked him. They're like,
aren't you concerned about dying again? And he's like, no,
we have stunt men now, which I'd say you had
stunt men back then too.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
Yeah, true news dump.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
And finally, let's get to Verty has put out their
one hundred greatest Comedies of all time. Let me give
you the top ten. You can give me a yay
or nay if you believe the top ten. This is
the top ten. Oh god, at number ten, Groundhog Day.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
It's good. That's very good. It's a classic.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
Number nine, Young Frankenstein. That's a classic. I'll all out
number eights. These are all in letters for some reason. Fargo,
you know I.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
Got I got nothing bad to say about Fargo.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
Number seven, duck Soup, What the fuck is duck soup?
Number six Monty Python in the Holy Grail.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
I love that movie.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
Number five Waiting for Guffman.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
I've actually not seen Guffman.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
Go number four The Great Dictator?
Speaker 2 (26:45):
What movie is that?
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Number three? Annie Hall? And at number two some like
it hot also have not seen that. Should I finish
the countdown or just end it at number two?
Speaker 2 (26:56):
Picking this as number one is clinically.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Do you want my reasoning for it? I would like
to hear your reasoning. So at number one is the
Naked Gun from the files of Police Squad. I think
they chose this not because they believe this is the
greatest comedy of all time. Sure, they put it there
because consensus says really good comedy, and it's definitely in
the category of comedy. By putting this there, they could
(27:23):
then go willy nilly and really play with the rules
throughout the rest of the list and be like, well
I think that so and so should be here, and
you're like, well, this list kind of stinks, and then
you go, well, now look at number one. That's a
real comedy.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
Yeah, I guess.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
I mean, I think it's just them covering their act, not.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
A single comedy post two thousand.
Speaker 1 (27:45):
So I was looking at it. Super Bad came in
at number twenty. I love super Bad.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
Where's Stepbrothers on this?
Speaker 1 (27:50):
Where's Borat Borat was like number twenty seven.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
I mean those are all those three are top ten
comedies anyway you build it.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
You know, like nineteen twenty four's sure Locke Junior.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
No, I wouldn't. I wouldn't put a vote in for that.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
How about TUTSI?
Speaker 2 (28:05):
I also would not put a vote in for that.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
You love doctor Strange? Love that was I think as.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
A general consensus gu and this is why critics are
fucking dummies. Comedy is like always advancing and always getting better,
Like newer comedies are always funnier than the older comedies,
like go back, go back to Uh good? What's the
movie that you hate about? Golf of Bill Murray?
Speaker 1 (28:26):
Caddy Shack? I love Caddy Shack. You hate Caddy Shack?
Speaker 2 (28:28):
Fuck you. Caddyshack's not very funny. Cady Sack is not
very funny.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
Especially in the first half when all the yucks.
Speaker 2 (28:34):
Are Caddy Shack is not very funny.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
How about nineteen thirty four? Is It Happened One Night?
That's number nineteen, just ahead a super bad Sure sure,
Now I'm not a huge fan of this list. Uh
the Bank Dick nineteen forty that's at twenty one, Caddy
Shack is twenty two. Trouble in Paradise from nineteen thirty
two is at twenty three. They didn't even know people
weren't allowed to laugh when movies were in black and white?
Speaker 2 (29:00):
Know how to?
Speaker 1 (29:00):
They didn't know how to. They saw the world in
black and white. Bride's Maids at twenty four. That's a
good one.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Yeah, Bride'smaids is solid.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
I mean borat his twenty six, I mean at two,
this is this one got me annoyed. Took at number
twenty eight is Richard Pryor Live in concert.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
It's not a movie. I yeah, so if that shit counts,
then all stand up specials should get well.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
It had to be in theaters, so like Kevin Hart's
stand up should be in there.
Speaker 2 (29:28):
I mean this is.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
At number thirty is Austin Power's International Man of Mystery.
And just behind that at number thirty one is Pink Flamingos.
Pink Flamingos is an experimental John Waters movie that I'm
gonna say this not funny. I understand, like its importance
and its relevance not funny.
Speaker 2 (29:49):
I think we could very easily come up with a
much much better list than what for fucking variety came.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
Up Edwood at thirty six. I like Edward best ca
vomites of all time? Yeah, come on, Princess Bride. Not
bad the Nutty Professor, but the one from nineteen sixty three?
What the fuck is wrong with you?
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Justice for Eddie Murphy and also Meet the Clumps better
than the first one.
Speaker 2 (30:17):
Sure about that?
Speaker 1 (30:17):
Meet the Clumps is hysterical. He is roughly seven to
eight characters. There's a scene where he thinks that he's
turning into his dad and he burns down a restaurant
because he farts into a candle. Sure sure, clueless thirty
nine zooland or forty The Beatles, Hard Day Night. What
are we doing?
Speaker 2 (30:38):
Sorry, I'm distracted here.
Speaker 1 (30:39):
I know I can tell I don't know what you're
doing right now? Team America. That's good, missus. Doubt fire
coming to America. It's okay. What's number fifty? Let's say
number fifty.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
It's the abomination. This this is a fucking no.
Speaker 1 (30:49):
Never mind redemption, We're back number fifty.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
The water Boy, I mean yeah, a lack of Sandler
throughout this as well, Like, what are we doing?
Speaker 1 (30:59):
Give me good? Like that? Taggle Woods than his daddy Elf.
Fifty four, Oh, criminally low. That's the highest Will Ferrell movie.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
That's insane. Now, I might have Elf two or three
for Will Farrell movies, but to have Will Ferrell, who
dominated dominated comedy for a decade or more, at fifty three.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
Also, let's say this like, we think Elf might be
one of his better movies, but looking at it as
a comedy compared to Anchorman or to step Brothers, what
are we doing?
Speaker 2 (31:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (31:34):
Airplane at sixty two? Airplanes better than Naked Gun.
Speaker 2 (31:38):
I mean it is a movie. I know that a.
Speaker 1 (31:40):
Fish called Hwanda, Eddie Murphy raw another stand up special.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
This is ridiculous, This.
Speaker 1 (31:46):
Less sucks Ace Venture a pet Detective. Finally at sixty nine. Nice, Nice,
I don't care for this list. No, how do you
feel about that?
Speaker 2 (31:55):
Mac? I think it's a fucking terrible list.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
I guess should we do our top one hundred comedies,
even though we are already did episodes dedicated to eras
in decades?
Speaker 2 (32:04):
We absolutely could do that, but again and again, I.
Speaker 1 (32:06):
Mean, did that if we did our top comedies, because
we've already done top nineties, aunts and twenty tens, I
feel like our top one hundred would just be those
lists and would add some eighties movies.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
It's fair, it's fair. Has Dork done the comedies list?
Speaker 1 (32:24):
No, but we did top fifty movies.
Speaker 2 (32:26):
Yeah, we did that, and then we did horror movies.
News Dump.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
All right, that'll do it for this episode of news Dump.
This might be the only new thing you're getting from

I gotta spend time with my family.
Speaker 2 (32:46):

this podcast ten years ago. I did not appreciate the
holidays as much as I do now. And I really
truly appreciate them now, and I'm sure most of our
listeners do. It's fun to hang out and see people
that you don't see that often. You know, share beverage
or two, smash your face with some stuffing. It's a
great day.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
I mean, I see the same people that I'm gonna
see on Thanksgiving every Sunday.
Speaker 2 (33:10):
But what you could still have a met some change
up your day and have some devil diggs.
Speaker 1 (33:22):
I don't think devil diggs are available at my parents
as ask Brenda to make him. It's too late. I
would have had to have asked him three weeks ago.
I asked him for something on Friday night, and I'm like, hey,
I see that you're going to Iggy's. Can you grab
me a franchisey? You would have had to have ordered
that weeks ago, Like can you just call and ask?
(33:42):
He called. Guess what they had it? Yeah, they have it.
They're gonna give it to us because we're gonna give
him money for their bread. Yes, yeah, I can't wait.
I am gonna I'm gonna taint that Iggy's bread. I'm
gonna take my hand. I'm gonna wash it first. Then
I'm gonna scoop out the insides ye and put all
that Thanksgiving.
Speaker 2 (33:57):
Mush in there. Love that for you.
Speaker 1 (33:59):
Oh my god, I can't wait for my mush sandwich.
Speaker 2 (34:01):
I'm just excited for three pounds of stuffing.
Speaker 1 (34:03):
As I mentioned, I love stuffing so much. Everyone loves stuffing.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
That's the best part of things.
Speaker 1 (34:06):
It really is. All right, So check us out. We'll

old Batman the animated series. Draft and figure that out.
Go and watch some episodes. Feats of Clay, what is it,
The one with the Gray Ghost with Adam West. That's
(34:29):
a great episode. Over the Edge, that's the Batgirl episode
where they think that Batgirl has been killed. I'm not
going to spoil it. Justice for Barb, Justice for Barb.
And Commissioner Gordon he is hunting down the bat family
because he thinks that Batman is responsible for this. Oh
my god, I love that show. Am I gonna watch?
Speaker 2 (34:46):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (34:46):
You know what, though we don't talk enough about this,
Batman Beyond also great, Batman Beyond is the.
Speaker 2 (34:54):
Other thing we've been clamoring four for years. Give us that.

be thrilled.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
