"Is a ping pong drama starring Gwyneth Paltrow and Timothée Chalamet really the best movie of the year?"That’s the question that launches this chaotic and surprisingly insightful episode of The Ben and Skin Show, where Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray unpack the buzz around the upcoming film Marty Supreme—a 1950s New York sports dramedy about table tennis that’s already being hailed as Timothée Chalamet’s career-defining performance.The crew dives deep into the absurdity and intrigue of the film’s premise, the reactions from its New York Film Festival premiere. From sex scenes to spoiler alerts (yes, they spoil Seven), this segment is a whirlwind of movie talk, sarcasm, and side-splitting commentary.

The Sticky Floor, the Giant Icicle, the Mools.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
So there was a world premiere last night at the
New York Film Festival for a movie that's coming out
on Christmas Day. We've talked a lot about one battle
after another with Leonardo DiCaprio and Sean Penn and Benicia
do To and more, and uh, you can sit there
and go, well, that's gonna win Best Best Movie.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
That's gonna win. That might be Leo's best role.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Sean Penn might win Best Supporting Actor, Toann Taylor might
win Best Actors. Like, there's so many things that could happen. Well,
the reaction from a movie that was shown last night
makes me think it's not some shoe in.
Speaker 3 (00:47):
Come on, don't overreact to them crying for ten minutes
at CON.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
This early showing of a movie starring Timothy Shamulama, Ding
Dong Yep and Gwyneth Paltrow. It was called Marty Supreme.
It is a nineteen fifty New York sports drama y
about table tennis, or as we like to call it
here in the States, ping pong man.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
That's gonna make Rick Carlisle so aroused.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
It's a drama, not a comedy and it's directed by
Josh Savdey, who I think just did The Smashing Machine
with the rock how Selty does.
Speaker 5 (01:24):
It's an A twenty four film, which is the same
same company.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
But the reaction is very, very good for the select
few people that got to see it last night.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
I think I can't remember if you were on the
show or not. This was the Freak Days maybe, but
we did talk about the fact that this movie was
being made.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Just about a year ago.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
Okay, I remember talking about this movie and then completely forge.
Speaker 5 (01:52):
A.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Right, there's a sex scene. Gwyneth Paltrow was doing interviews
talking about our sex scene with Timothy Shallow. That's right,
because Gwyneth Paltrow is She actually talked about sex a lot.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
She's gross.
Speaker 4 (02:02):
What do you mean she's gross.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
It's got badge candles and.
Speaker 4 (02:05):
Yeah, but she's she's very goofy. Yeah, but she's good looking,
is she? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (02:09):
I think so. I love it.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
That's my favorite Ben character is goofy, and she has
recovered so nicely after getting decapitated in seven.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
Oh spoiler alert, that's her head in the box.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
Dude.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
I was gonna get to watch it sometime in the
next fifteen years.
Speaker 4 (02:29):
Your guy Kevin Spacey's in it.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Oh my god, I don't miss a single thing he does.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
I got a so we were I can't remember what
was happening him something with the kids, and I started
going what's in the box, and my son was like,
what are you doing? I was like, Oh, you need
to go watch that scene, son.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Chalome's career best performance. They're calling this movie it's called
Marty Supreme, but the joke is one paddle after another.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
Oh don't, don't, don't.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
There's just one earlier review. I cannot believe we got
two American movies. This good, back to back.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
It's about ping pong.
Speaker 5 (03:06):
See that's the thing, is like one battle after another
was intriguing to me. I have no desire to see
this movie. And I saw the the preview before one
battle after another, and I was just like, wait, what
I'd be interested.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
I'd be interested if it was a movie about Bob
Dylan is a ping pong player, and Timothy Schallomey was
Bob Dylan playing ping pong with Gwyneth Paltrow.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
I just don't I'm buying anything that Challo May does
because he is not in collected check mode. He wants
to be the greatest actor of all time. Yeah, and
he's only taking great roles. And they say, the ending
of this movie will shock you. And by the way,
it's apparently a little too long. But do you want
to know why he's in that mode? Look at his age?
Speaker 1 (03:47):
He's fourteen?
Speaker 4 (03:49):
Yeah, well was he?
Speaker 3 (03:50):
What happens is he'll turn thirty and go what Marvel
movie is available to me?
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Did he already dates a jinner? He doesn't need like money.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
Those relationships totally last. So here's what's gonna happen.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
It's going pretty well.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
Fo No, no, dude, they all do it. Go look
at Leo DiCaprio's movies until Titanic. They all do it.
They all take those roles and then they go, wait
a minute, I want to buy a studio? What what
is the movie where I'm the Hulk? Well, you know what,
Mark Ruffalo did it for crying out wow, for trying
to have a little hope for the younger generation. Here.
Speaker 4 (04:22):
Now they suck and they're screwed. I say we move on. Okay,
that seems like a good drop.
Speaker 5 (04:28):
He could be the next Spider Man, right.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
He doesn't want to be. That's the of this. He
wants to be Bob Dillan. He wants to be Martye supriyah.
Speaker 4 (04:36):
He'll turn thirty and that'll change now.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
He learned like to play guitar and seemed just like
Bob Dylan Ean, while Jeremy Allen White, who is seeing
as oh, this is a guy who really cares.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
He even learned to play guitar for Bruce Springsteen. So yeah, No.
Speaker 4 (04:50):
DiCaprio was autistic in.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
One movie, and then he was the druggy in the
indie film and then suddenly, oh yeah, I'm on this boat.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Well I'm gonna I'm gonna say it's probably gonna be
a good movie and we should all go see it
on Christmas Day together and let's go.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
Let's wake up with our families and then go and
meet the four of us to this movie.
Speaker 4 (05:10):
