Speaker 2 (02:37):
Yeah, I did not We did an actual not talk.
Speaker 3 (02:39):
Oh god, it was so cute. And then I had
to read that thing and I was just.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
Like, I you did great, you did great.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
Your sister was like, there's no way that's amember that.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
She was like, yeah, nope, nop, not happening.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
Yeah, oh how lovely? Well, I like you great deal.
But she's the best, So happy bath Data kels.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
She's absolutely Yeah, how wonderful. It's fun time.
Speaker 3 (03:07):
Have you been watching any films you know?
Speaker 2 (03:09):
I have? Thank you for asking God. I had brought
this up when we did our Q and A for
our patrons, but I thought I would talk about it here.
I watched the new controversial film Amelia Perez. Have you
been able to consume it yet?
Speaker 3 (03:24):
I haven't seen it. I thought about watching it tonight
and I was just like, not enough time quite so yeah,
I pushed it off.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
How is it? Well, it's kind of all over the place.
People feel strongly about this. You can currently watch it
on Netflix if you're interested. It stars Zoe Saldana, Selena Gomez,
and a transactor named Carla Sophia Gascon and it's about
(03:52):
the head of a drug cartel who wants to become
a woman. They then fake their death and become a woman,
and Zoe's done is pretty much forced into making all
of the arrangements. That's how she is involved. Wow, And
then it gets pretty wild and it's wild.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
Yeah, yeah, that's a cool pitch for a movie that's
super interesting.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
I thought the story was actually pretty cool. But the
thing that puts this over the top is that it's
a musical. Oh and the music didn't really do it
for me. That's very difficult if it's a musical. Yeah,
(04:35):
so the songs, like, none of the songs really grab me.
There's not like a show stopper. All of the singers
are pretty average, like not terrible, but not like wow, they're.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
Really Cynthia Ribo out there though, that's just like what
exactly exactly?
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Yeah, there's none of that. But yeah, it sounds like
the trans community isn't super into it. The Mexican community
isn't it isn't super into it. Yeah, people who love
musicals aren't into it. So it's kind of shocking. It
got thirteen Oscar nominations and everybody's just like why why?
Speaker 3 (05:15):
I know, I Like, the only thing I really have
heard about it is everyone's like everyone is panning it
so hard that you know, all these actors that are
included in it are going out and kind of being like,
I don't know what they want from us. This sucks
that we're getting such a bad rap and they're like,
you got nominated for thirteen Oscars. It's not like you're
you know, like yeah, bat and low in the order. Like,
(05:38):
I don't know what to tell you. We can give
criticism of it, and I don't know anything about it.
But I just thought that was really funny to be like,
well what do you want? You know?
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Right? But Zoisldania's pretty great and she does get to
show off her voice and she's it. I don't know
if done a lot of that. I hadn't. Yeah, interesting, Yeah,
she's pretty good. I think she won the Golden Globe,
so you know, it's it's worth checking out. Yeah, but
(06:08):
like on IMDb, it's like a five point seven currently rated,
which you know for a movie that's thirteen oscar now
think it's at least in the sevens or something.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
But well, I mean, you know, not every movie has
to be for everyone either, So that's cool, right, interesting though,
wile Okay, yeah, cool, I'm pretty crazy.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
It's on Netflix. If you're interested.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
I will be checking it out at some point for sure.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Okay, well, what have you checked out recently?
Speaker 3 (06:37):
I saw a film that you recommended over on the
Hulu machine.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
I watched Thelma. Oh tell me what you thought.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
I mean, just what a lovely experience this was. You
were totally right. I loved it.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
So funny. This movie is so funny.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
I loved all the like the stylisation of making it
like an action film.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Yes, what these old on.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
Never I left every single time at every one of
those like it was so funny. And when they would
do the hearing aid bit where they'd be like, you'll
be with me, like spy stuff, but it's I loved it.
I thought that, like, there was so much joy in
this movie because it it was. It was very sweet
(07:30):
and at point it's like poignant in its own way,
but also like very silly and just lighthearted. And it
was absolutely what I needed. You know. The day I
watched it, I loved it. I thought it was great.
I thought the the gal who you said, June Squib.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Was really great. She was so good.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
You're totally right. That Fred Heshinger guy. Very different role
from his Gladiator performance, I.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Know, dude, And I think I saw those movies like Back.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
To I remember you saying that that is weird, jarring, jarring.
But Richard Rowntree was a delight in it. He had
a great moment. I mean, he's such a great actor anyway,
But yeah, I just loved everything about it. It was
just so fun, like such a fun idea, very lighthearted,
like I said, and then also like they had all
(08:23):
the pieces of an action flick, like but with the
joke being you know, obviously there. I don't know, I
just really liked it that. It was really really can.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
You see why it made my top ten from last year? Absolutely? Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
I think if earlier it definitely would have had a chance,
it would have made a runner up at least for sure.
But yeah, I just really I liked it. It was
very charming, very good. It's on Hulu. I didn't recognize
anything this Josh Margolin had really done before. And we
even talked about director writer. Yeah he wrote and directed. Yeah, yeah,
(08:59):
so I look forward to whatever he does next. You know, Like,
I don't know, I really like the vibe of this.
Maybe he never gets it back, but I feel like,
if you do this, you gotta have some other cool
stuff coming, you gotta. Yeah, So it was really fun.
I really liked it so good. I'm so glad wreck budd. Yes,
how about streaming? Have you been streaming anything I have.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Yeah, I went over to the Apple Machine and I
finished the second season of Silo. Did you finish that? No,
I haven't even started it. You saw the first season though,
right talked about that.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
Yeah, I just have it the second one.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Yeah. So it's the same folks. For the most part,
it's a great show. We added Steve's on to this season,
which is always a Plaus's amazing, But I did kind
of feel like this was a season that was like
setting up what's to come a little bit. Sure, all
(09:58):
of Rebecca Ferguson's felt really drawn out until like the
awesome ending of this season. It's it's a I'm excited
to see where they go from here, but I felt
like there was kind of a lot of filler in
this season, if I'm being like super honest. But with
(10:19):
where they ended, I feel like it's gonna get nuts. So, yeah,
that's cool.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
I'm excited to watch that. I will have to do that.
How was the accent in year two?
Speaker 2 (10:32):
I have kind of just tried to give Yeah, okay,
that's fair. You know. It was like the first like
four or five episodes, I was driving me nuts and
just like I just I like the show. Yeah, I'm
now now I'm more bugged by Common and just how
like everything that comes out of his mouth sounds like
(10:56):
so cool. Just like he's like he's this like cool
rapper and he is just not that in this like
he's supposed to be this kind of like whatever. But
I kind of have a hard time with Common. I
get that he's too cool.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
It's just like dripping with gravitas everything, even if he's
bring me a chocolate milk.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Right, It's just like he just sounds like he's gonna
like spit some rhymes like he's he is cool dude.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
Yeah, yeah, I like that. That's funny.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Nice, Nice. But that's on Apple. What have you been streaming?
Speaker 3 (11:30):
I actually also have an Apple TV Plus recommendation seven
season two. I've been watching Nice. I don't know if
you've checked it out yet. First two episodes okay, cool?
Speaker 2 (11:42):
I think I watched three. He was at least three.
Is there three out?
Speaker 3 (11:45):
I think I'm caught up anyway, it doesn't matter. A
really fun, really crazy weird show in all the best ways.
Uh yeah, it seems funnier this season to me, Like
they I feel like they they jacked up the funniness
maybe a little bit, which is great.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
I feel like it was so long ago when we
saw the first season. How long ago was it?
Speaker 3 (12:10):
It was at least a year ago. I actually rewatched
it before I watched this one, so it smart.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
I felt a little disconnected because I did not do that.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Yeah, that's kind of I was. Before I started. I
was like, I don't really remember a lot, so I
go back, which was fun. It made it.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
It made it fun to come.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Right back into it. So but yeah, it's it's just great.
It's so good. They're all so good, and there's intrigue
and I don't know just all the things.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Yeah, it was two full years ago. It was, no, no, no,
it was. It came out February twenty twenty two, so
three three years. It was really that long. Yes, yes, boy,
it doesn't seem that long.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
But maybe I watched it way late or something.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
I watched it. I watched it pretty much in one
day when we were performing in Niagara Falls, I had
this amazing hotel room of overlooking Niagara Falls, and I
was like, Oh, I should really go out and enjoy this. No,
but dude, this show is nut. So I like put
the iPad in the window so I could like see
(13:24):
Niagara Falls and.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
Very separency. Actually, so you really worked out.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
It was fun. It was fun.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
I love that. But yeah, really great show. It's it's
been really fun. Yeah, I feel like you can't really
talk about anything in it because it's all like who
knows what? Is a spoiler not? But it's really fun
and it's one of those shows where like I go
and look at the message boards and I'm like, yep,
I don't know what's happening at all in the best way,
you know.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
Right, Yeah, it kind of feels like Lost or something.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
Absolutely there's all this like intrigue around it. But man,
it's shot so wonderfully.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Ben Stiller does a great job.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
But episode three, you're gonna love it. It's really I
have watched three for sure because it was nuts. So yeah,
it's a really fun. Go check it out Apple TV.

Ape have seen any great movies lately.
Speaker 5 (19:12):
I've been watching a lot of anime, actually, so just
last night I caught up on Sakamoto Days on Netflix,
which is excellent.
Speaker 4 (19:20):
And I've been really good. Yeah about that.
Speaker 5 (19:24):
And then Castlevania the season three just came out as
well there, which my friend Adam up and I we've
watched that religiously.
Speaker 4 (19:31):
He's very excited about.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
Say, he's obsessed with that. Yeah. And then the other one,
did you watch that arcane show?
Speaker 4 (19:38):
I have that saved on my watch list. I haven't
gotten to it yet, but it's.
Speaker 3 (19:41):
I don't know if that's anime. I think it's animated anyway,
but I've heard that's really good too.
Speaker 4 (19:44):
I think it counts.
Speaker 5 (19:46):
And then the final one that I get in there
is a Blue Eyed Samurai, which is maybe my favorite
out of everything so far.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
It's really that's incredible.
Speaker 4 (19:53):
Not for kids, but it's it's a ride nice.
Speaker 3 (19:57):
I love it. We'll go check out some anime.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
You kids do it? I love it?
Speaker 3 (20:02):
Uh, well, what do you guys to think? Should we
get right into it?
Speaker 2 (20:04):
We talk about the Breakfast Club? Breakfast Club forty years old?
Forty man?
Speaker 3 (20:11):
That that feels old?
Speaker 2 (20:13):
It does? It does? But Rob, will you get it started?
With just a rough SYNOPSI yeah. Five high school students
from different walks of life endure a Saturday detention under
a power hungry principle. The disparate group includes rebel John,
Princess Claire, Outcast, Alison, Brainy, Bryan, and Andrew the jock.
(20:37):
Each has a chance to tell his or her story,
making the others see them a little differently, and when
the day ends, they question whether school will ever be
the same. Dun, dun, dun.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
Nice. Yeah, I agreed.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Let's go Rotten Tomith. Let's hear what they have to say.
Speaker 3 (20:56):
Critics have it's coming in at a rock solid eighty
nine percent.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Eighty nine.
Speaker 3 (21:01):
It is high that I liked it, and audience members
are like right there with them, even a scouch above
that at ninety two.
Speaker 2 (21:08):
Yeah, dude, this is a beloved film.
Speaker 3 (21:11):
Beloved indeed, I love it. Those are very high. I
like it. Let's hear what we think. It's time for
our hot take.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
Hot take. Oh, ouch, that's a hot take. That's a
hot take. Captain crunch sandwich spicy. Okay. I was like,
I got nothing for this one.
Speaker 3 (21:33):
No, I like. I like to think these are proof
that we don't like think.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Of a lady, certainly don't. Yeah, I think they know. Yeah,
I think probably. Let's just get into it.
Speaker 3 (21:44):
Yeah, so I'll go first. I like this movie quite
a lot. It's not one I watched a lot as
a kid, but I have now seen it several times
as an adult. I think it really plays into that
sort of the angst of just being a teen and
like on the verge of adulthood, not knowing who you are,
(22:05):
but like really wanting to take that next step and
not knowing how to feel about it, and and also
kind of finding your people, which I think is really
important for kids to hear about. And I really like
that this was like right in the heyday of that
that Brat Pack sort of time frame, which is really cool.
Although after watching that documentary they didn't love that name.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
I found out I haven't seen that.
Speaker 3 (22:32):
It's really good. If either of you are interested in
that the Brat Pack documentary, I think it's just called
the Brats or something. I don't really remember. But it's
really really good. It's super interesting and not it's not
just about their history. It's also about like what's happened
to them since and today and all that good stuff.
(22:53):
It's it's really really cool. Yeah, I don't know. I
don't I don't have like a ton of hot takes
about this movie. I think it's pretty well acted, even
though like I sort of hate some of the characters
at points. I kind of think you're supposed to you. Yeah,
for sure, especially the principle he's a straight dickhead, like
he's the worst man, don't love him. The most well
(23:17):
adjusted person in this movie is the janitor, who, like
everyone looks down on a little bit, which kind of sucks.
But yeah, I just I think this movie's really well done.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
It is.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
It turns a corner about halfway through and does such
a good job that I really really still enjoy it.
But the first half is a little tough for me
to watch for whatever reason. I don't know if it
just feels stressful or something. Sure, but I think I
don't know. I just that will be evergreen, the like
worrying that we're going to be exactly like our parents
(23:49):
and then you know, finding out like, oh that's actually
not so bad and everyone has a tough time, you know,
like they don't get there in this movie, but that
that part of that journey is really important and it's evergreen.
Like I feel like you could make this movie today,
and you know, like the set pieces would be different,
but the like the gist of it could be exactly
(24:11):
the same, right, And I think that's that's how you know,
you tapped into something important with art, which I think
is cool. But my hottest take nine hours is fing
insane for a detention. That is crazy.
Speaker 2 (24:24):
That is.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
That's not like a thing that happens, right, because we
had detention and I even got it a couple of times,
sure easily for talking. I know that's surprising to everyone,
but it was like an hour nine hours.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
Yeah, no, that's insane.
Speaker 3 (24:45):
This is crazy.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
Yeah, we got.
Speaker 4 (24:47):
Some Saturday detentions at my high school. I went one.
Speaker 5 (24:51):
I'm trying to remember how long it was, but I
know it was at least like four hours. I want
to say it was like a half an eye to
one or something like that.
Speaker 4 (24:58):
But this is a long time ago. You could smoke
cigarettes and bring guns to school, so yeah.
Speaker 3 (25:03):
Right, well you could do that when I went to
school too. Yeah, but that's man, that's crazy. That's too.
I just can't imagine teachers would be like, yeah, sure, yes,
I mean screw that. Yeah, but yeah, that's pretty wild.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
That was my hottest take, though, I guess hot take
bro hot Hot. This was a movie my sister and
I watched a bunch growing up, probably way before we
really should have been watching it, but whatever. We tended
to watch a lot of older things when we were younger.
This was written and directed by the prolific and amazing
(25:42):
John Hughes. This is now the seventh John Hughes film
we've done an episode on. Really, wow, isn't that crazy
a lot? I know? Damn, I know. It's pretty cool.
Maybe the most iconic opening and ending credits song like
of any movie ever. Absolutely, Like you hear that song
(26:05):
and you just see like the fist up in the air,
like absolutely. I thought it was pretty amazing that they're
able to keep our attention while like ninety percent of
the movie is in this library to school. I thought
the writing was was pretty great in that aspect, and
(26:26):
just the character building was like brilliant, really fun. So
some of this movie is like really moving and dramatic,
and then some of this movie is like over the
top melodramatic and takes me out of it.
Speaker 3 (26:41):
Yeah, that's kind of what I was feeling at parts,
especially in the beginning.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
I hear. Yeah, but pretty good young actors, some ended
up having bigger careers than others. Super fun to rewatch.
It had been a very long time since I'd seen it.
I got a couple of hot takes. Hot take Elio
Estevez getting all like roided out after he smokes weed
and is like violent dancing.
Speaker 3 (27:05):
He was smoking PCP or something, right, like what are
we doing here?
Speaker 2 (27:09):
I mean it made me feel just like, had anyone
involved with this film like smoked weed or even heard
about what it's like to be stoned, because it's just
like met to anyone who smoked weed?
Speaker 3 (27:20):
What's happening?
Speaker 2 (27:21):
Like that was.
Speaker 4 (27:22):
Bizarre theydness and went from there.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
Yeah, sure, so that has always stood out to me.
It's just like, what like because I felt like Anthony
Michael Hall did a really good job, like he seemed
like he was stoned, but then Emilio just went went
for it.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
Well he looked like I mean, he was like he
had snorted a lion or something like he went crazy,
you know, like he was in sout.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
Yeah. But another hot take, I can't believe that none
of these kids knew each other before this detention, Like
it must be the biggest.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
School he was up that that's a good question.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
They were all introducing themselves to each other, just like what.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
Like, okay, so that's good that you said that. I
came from a tiny school, so I was just like,
maybe this is a real thing.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
I went, you know, I had four hundred and seventy
kids in my class and we had tenth, eleventh, and twelfth,
so you know whatever that is like fifteen hundred kids. Yeah,
and like I knew most ever, at least, you know,
I wasn't introducing myself to you know what I mean
like that. That's always kind of been like, what is
(28:34):
this the first day of school? I don't understand.
Speaker 3 (28:36):
Also, if there's that many kids, there's only the five
of them that got to tension somehow, like.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
You know, yeah, I mean, I guess they're all in
different clicks. Clearly they're not, you know, so maybe that's
how you can get away with it, But that always
seemed a little far fetched to me.
Speaker 3 (28:52):
Yeah, I get that, nice hot take, buddy, Thanks, all right,
what do you got?
Speaker 2 (28:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (28:59):
I agree with that. I said. I saw this.
Speaker 5 (29:02):
Movie at ten years old, I think the first time
I saw it, And for me, it's an example of
the timing of when you first encounter things, and it
really like cracked my head open as far as like,
you know, I had some maybe pre junior high angst
about what it was going to be like.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
And so I'm watch studying this movie because it's like, Okay,
I'm going to encounter a bender, an encounter of Claire.
Speaker 5 (29:26):
And you know these you know, archetypes, and you know,
I remember the first time watching it was at my
grandmother's house. She had just gotten HBO and so it
was hitting HBO.
Speaker 4 (29:38):
My folks are pretty strict.
Speaker 5 (29:39):
They weren't supposed to watch rated OAR movies, but because
it was on TV, I don't think they even realized
that that was the case.
Speaker 4 (29:45):
So there was this like forbidden fruit aspect to it too.
Speaker 5 (29:49):
And it really is probably the ultimate eighties movie for me,
my favorite John Jews movie. It really like is what
I would put in the time capsule for that thing
of that of that era.
Speaker 4 (30:03):
And and like you said that that awkwardness of high school.
Speaker 5 (30:06):
As I was clicking around like trivia and stuff, I
saw a quote that I wish I had said, but
I'll steal it where it says they want to fit in,
but they don't want to conform. And I think that
really some kids looking for belonging but also rejecting things
at the same time. And so it's it's that really
like helped clear the lens for me as far as
(30:27):
you know, thinking about that too, So that was a
good way to sum it up. I felt like, Yeah,
and like you said, it all takes place placed in
a box essentially, and so you know, the high school
is almost a character that that room and that building
and stuff like that too, And so it makes me
think of like you know, Hitchcock did was life raft,
I think was that movie, whereas as some of those
(30:48):
other famous movies where it's all concealed. The Hateful Eight,
you know, also is another one where's that even the
door keeps slamming in that movie too, and so could
be an homage knowing Tarantino.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
Yeah, that's actually a great point.
Speaker 4 (31:03):
And that's fun and so yeah, I feel like, yeah,
you have to rely.
Speaker 3 (31:09):
So much more on the writing and the characters than
you know in those scenarios.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
So yeah, I love that. When those movies work, they're amazing.
Speaker 5 (31:17):
Yeah, it's a good testing to use his talent as
far as that kind of a thing, because sometimes the
simple stuff is the hardest.
Speaker 3 (31:24):
Yeah, absolutely love it. Yeah, because this could be a play, right, Yeah,
I look.
Speaker 2 (31:29):
At it, need it to be. Yeah, there was a
Broadway play.
Speaker 5 (31:33):
There was a Broadway Lane sort of not spoof version
of it like twenty years ago that I just learned
about today.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
But cools, that'd be fun. I would watch that for sure.
That's neat, well, hot takes all around. Nice work everybody.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
Yes, let's go in and do this.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
One might be a little tough, but let's go talk
about our favorite acting performance.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
Let's name the dude. The dude.
Speaker 4 (31:56):
I'm the dude.
Speaker 6 (31:58):
So that's what you call me, you know, uh that
or his dudeness or duder or you know, el dud reno.
If you're not into the whole brevity thing.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
Hey you got.
Speaker 5 (32:10):
I don't know if this is just the answer, but
Anthony Michael Hall for me, he's I feel like the
Greek chorus of the movie. It starts out with him
narrating it. He seems to always be half of the
interactions that I really like notice and resonate with me,
and he really just you know, you think of him
as that person I do, you know, and when i's
(32:33):
he's not even acting, which is probably how good of
an acting performance it is, but reminds me of some
of like Jesse Eisenberg's things that he does where it's
just like that's just sure, But I think again, that's
a testament to his performance more than anything.
Speaker 2 (32:48):
I love that. I love that. Have you seen the
new Jesse Eisenberg movie, by the way, I just lost
a tangent. Loved it. Yeah, so good. I felt that
way watching I was like, that's just him, that is yeah,
he is just I mean, it takes talent to act
your you know, even if you're just being yourself. But yeah, anyway,
(33:11):
I felt the exact same way. I came in thinking
that I was going to say jud Nelson because that
was kind of just like I always thought he was
so cool and awesome, and on this rewatch, I was
way more into what Anthony Michael Hall was doing. He's
so good in this. He seems like the only one
(33:33):
young enough to actually be in high school out of
all the other kids. Sure, I thought he was very
believable as the nerdy kid who needs to get straight a's.
I already mentioned he was the most believable with like
the weed smoking. He had a heartbreaking story about why
he was in detention, and then it also kind of
(33:54):
turned out to be hilarious too. Yeah, he was by
far my favorite, So I'm with.
Speaker 4 (34:00):
You, and yeah, I think Nelson was my one. Be
there too.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (34:05):
Nice, Yeah, I love that. Uh well, this is now
going to seem like I'm just stealing you guys, that's
who I landed on as well. But I, uh for,
like you said, Rob the I thought it was gonna
be Judd Nelson and and he was good, don't get
me wrong, But but I was like, oh man, I'm
really digging this performance by Anthony Michael Hall. I also
(34:27):
loved that he is he's really vulnerable and like he's
really cool in that he is true to himself kind
of the whole time still while also not being what
the cool kid is, you know, because he's like kind
of the peacemaker the whole time, like, hey, guys, maybe
we should just let this go or you know, like
(34:47):
trying to get between these these two you know, kind
of alpha male kind of guys at points. But yeah,
I just thought he was wonderful and then so lovely,
and I found myself rooting for him even more than
any of the rest of them, you.
Speaker 2 (35:01):
Know, throughout the whole thing. So yeah, I'm with you,
that's awesome, clean love it.
Speaker 3 (35:07):
Yeah, he's really great. But let's name some of these
other folks. It's time for the tuccid we got for
this one.
Speaker 5 (35:17):
Okay, So for the Tucci, I almost felt like everyone
in this film could be a lead except Carl the janitor,
and I couldn't just pick him as much as I
like him.
Speaker 4 (35:29):
Too, So I'm going with the statue. The statue is
behind the kids in the library, that big, that ugly
cement thing. It looks like it could be in a beetlejuice. Yes,
you know, it gets it gets hit in the face
or whatever the face like area is with the baloney.
Speaker 5 (35:50):
Or the like, and then Bender ends up straddling it's
it's head. Later on, I think he's going to get stoned.
And it's just always, it's always there and so always
kind of looking over them, And I felt like, if
I really wanted to, you know, if I ever smoked
weed and thought about it, it's.
Speaker 4 (36:10):
This like it's the future for them.
Speaker 5 (36:12):
It's this abstract, a more maybe spooky thing that could
represent like their adulthood, just lurking in the background as
you know, this this thing that they're trying to figure
out and won't it won't ever really.
Speaker 3 (36:27):
Yeah. So it's also kind of the elephant in the room, right,
like of this domineering thing.
Speaker 4 (36:33):
Yeah, and acknowledge necessarily, but always there.
Speaker 2 (36:36):
Yeah, sure, that's really cool. I love it. That's awesome.
Rate pick. I didn't have that one down, you definitely not.
Speaker 4 (36:43):
I didn't see it in the credits. I couldn't. I
couldn't properly give it a name.
Speaker 2 (36:48):
I did see that John Hughes was somebody's dad, Brian. Yeah,
that was kind of fun. I never knew that. Yeah,
so mine's not as fun as apes. I was just
gonna say Judd Nelson. I just always thought he was
the funniest and coolest when I was younger. He kind
(37:10):
of sucks, though, like as I've grown up, just kind
of a bully. He had a crappy home life, kind
of taking it out on everybody else, enjoyed messing with
other people's feelings. Not cool. And one thing that always
bugged me was that Molly Ringwald ended up with him,
(37:30):
and it was just like girls, they never like the
nice guys, and I was always bummed out about that.
They like the cool guys that they can fix, and
that just always wished they were more into Brian.
Speaker 3 (37:47):
I know, I found myself even being like, maybe she
does end up maybe I don't remember. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
that's funny. Well, that's a great one. I'll shout out
Molly Ringwald. I had a huge crush on her when
I was a kid.
Speaker 2 (38:03):
Out Redhead started do you think.
Speaker 3 (38:08):
I think, if we're honest with ourselves, it was April
O'Neil that maybe Jessica Rabbit, but certainly Molly Ringwald is
in the pantheon for sure.
Speaker 2 (38:21):
Or yeah, fun Yeah, there's a lot.
Speaker 3 (38:23):
Of Redheads actually know that. I'm thinking about it. Yeah,
way too many of them are animated, and I don't
want to get into it right now, just kidding, But
I thought Molly Ringwold was was pretty good in this movie.
I thought that like the sushi thing was great, you know,
all the all the stuff. She was really believable and
(38:44):
also believable in that even if she is super popular,
she's still going to be like self conscious and everything.
You know. I think we've we've learned that as we
age about most people at some point or another field
that way to some extent. So also Paul Gleeson, like
he he does such a good job being a dickhead,
(39:05):
but I to actively hate him in this movie.
Speaker 2 (39:08):
He it's one of those whenever he pops up like
he's a pretty good character actor, and whenever he pops
up in something, I can only see him as this character.
Speaker 3 (39:16):
Oh I am the opposite. He will always be Clarence
speaks to me from trading places.
Speaker 2 (39:21):
Yeah, I get that, but I think I.
Speaker 3 (39:23):
Saw that first. So that's probably why.
Speaker 2 (39:26):
I still see him talking about cracking skulls in this
every time. Every time.
Speaker 3 (39:32):
I will never respect an adult either that like it
thinks they're tough by threatening a child, Like it's just
they're seventeen or eight. I understand, right, and like whatever,
but I just think that's such a that's so.
Speaker 2 (39:46):
I make thirty one thousand dollars a year and I
don't know how I own a house. It made me
feel it was kind of like the the Will Ferrell
sketch when he is just kind of yelling and he's
just I drive a odd stratus. Yes, it is kind
of the same thing.
Speaker 3 (40:05):
Oh man. Yeah, I did love that. I was like,
why is that not a gift that I'm sending all
the time?
Speaker 2 (40:14):
Yeah, I love that.
Speaker 3 (40:16):
But yeah, yeah, I mean he did a good job, right,
because he's probably not. I hope he's not that big
a prick in real life. But I just those principles,
you know, give people a little bit of power and
they'll domineer over people, just like the worst.
Speaker 2 (40:29):
Yeah, but yeah, he.
Speaker 3 (40:31):
Did a good job. And the other person, Emilio Astavez,
he was pretty.
Speaker 2 (40:37):
I liked him.
Speaker 3 (40:37):
I like him a lot. I can kind of see
why people thought he was going to be a huge
deal and he was very successful, but I don't think
he ever like lived up to the giant deal status
that he was sort of saddled with. Maybe is what
he would say.
Speaker 2 (40:52):
Now, Yeah, aside from that weed smoking thing that was
so ridiculous.
Speaker 3 (40:58):
Yeah, that was weird, But that's not his fault. I
doubt maybe it is.
Speaker 2 (41:02):
I don't know, but he had some good scenes in
this for sure. That just that kind of role doesn't
do a ton for me, just the character itself. You
didn't do a ton for me, But I thought he
did it well.
Speaker 3 (41:18):
Yeah, I get that. Anybody else have any other runners up?
I guess there's not that many more people.
Speaker 2 (41:24):
Ali Shety, Ali Sheety. She was super weird and she,
like you know, grows on you throughout the throughout the movie.
It always super gross to me. Out that Dan drous
scene always really Yeah, gave.
Speaker 3 (41:38):
Me the they never talked about she mixed this beautiful drawing,
but like it's incredible.
Speaker 2 (41:46):
But that's immediately gross with the dand it was the snow.
Speaker 3 (41:51):
It was It's not my taste in art, but it was.
It was a choice. It was a choice.
Speaker 4 (41:57):
That's I think where I get my crush on Goth
was seeing her.
Speaker 2 (42:01):
Yeah hell yeah, sure.
Speaker 4 (42:03):
Yeah, I like the before, not the after, for sure.
Speaker 2 (42:07):
Right for sure? Yeah? Yeah, nice, that's fun.
Speaker 3 (42:12):
I like that. So she's such a weirdo, Like I
don't know, I still don't know what is true because
what she also lying about, she didn't have detention.
Speaker 2 (42:22):
I don't know. Sure, yeah whos Yeah, that's fun. But
that was kind of everybody I wrote down. It was
kind of fun seeing Emilio's dad. His name is Ron Dean,
and that actor he always plays like a cop from Chicago.
So he's like in The Fugitive, which I always loved,
(42:43):
and anyway, he pops up in that kind of stuff.
Speaker 3 (42:46):
You love the future.
Speaker 2 (42:47):
I do love the Futureive I saw it roughly a
thousand times.
Speaker 3 (42:50):
I don't care. Sorry, I have to say it every time.
I'm obligated. I don't know what you guys want from me.
Speaker 2 (42:57):
Well, why don't we move on. Let's let's go and
pick our favorite scene, and let's choose the dingus. So
it's quite simple, really, Dingus, Dingus.
Speaker 3 (43:07):
I could talk about my dingus all night long. This one.
Speaker 4 (43:12):
I chose the lunch scene when they're all having lunch.
Speaker 2 (43:16):
I did do. That's crazy. There's so many scenes, crazy crazy, So.
Speaker 5 (43:22):
You know, everyone their lunch represents them obviously in that
architect and you know, I got Emilia's got the three sandwiches,
Claire has the sushi, Brian has exactly.
Speaker 4 (43:34):
What you to assume.
Speaker 5 (43:35):
And then but I think what really made that for
me is is Bender because that's when he first kind
of breaks down. You know, he shows the scar from
the cigar and then he kind of runs up up
the stairs and goes into fetal position. But it it's
that vulnerability that kind of cascades to each of the
other characters. But I believe that's the first one that
(43:57):
that breaks, it kind of cracks, and it's being just
that that archetype of you know what, is he the
bad guy at the criminal or whatever, And so I
think that's a real turning point in the movie. But
it's it's also just kind of fun to see what
the next person's going to pull out of.
Speaker 4 (44:12):
Their bag, and you know, yeah, yeah, picksie stick sandwich, which.
Speaker 5 (44:15):
I've never quite tried, but I'm surprised I'm saying that
I haven't.
Speaker 2 (44:19):
Yeah, that is, I would have. I would have. I
can't crunch on a sandwich.
Speaker 3 (44:25):
That's interesting.
Speaker 2 (44:26):
Yeah, man, it just like makes my cheeks hurt thinking
about it. I felt like it would always just hurt
the crap out of my mouth. Oh that's hilarious, because
I mean, there's so many scenes in this, but that
was the one that I picked as well for all
the reasons you said. The next is just the narration
(44:47):
of the letter and the ending fist bump is just
so iconic, wonderful, and if I had to take another one,
I wrote down three more. But I always loved how
Ridiculus us the running around the school montage, like them
seeing the principal and then sliding and run to the place,
(45:10):
and it's all with this like super eighties tune in
the background, And yeah, I always kind of loved that.
Speaker 4 (45:18):
A few times I called Christine from the other room.
Is like you go to see how perfect this is?
Speaker 2 (45:22):
You know it is?
Speaker 3 (45:24):
That is very eighties.
Speaker 2 (45:26):
Oh everything happening there? Yeah, yeah, he pig time.
Speaker 3 (45:31):
I love that.
Speaker 2 (45:32):
I love that. Guys.
Speaker 3 (45:33):
I picked the lunch scene too. That's so funny, So
I guess that's our dingus. It's the I realized on
this rewatch that I'm other than the athletic talent. I'm
the athlete. So that's fun because I also would have
brought the entire grocery bag of food. That was so great.
I love that bit so much. But yeah, I just
(45:53):
I thought the whole scene was super super fun. Like
you said, it gets real and then you know, each
of their meals is so interesting, and I bet in
eighty five like the sushi must have felt, especially like
in the Midwest must have felt like, oh this chick
is rich, you know, like right, and you know, I
don't know that. I don't think I would have known
(46:15):
about that then anyway, but I really really liked that
a lot. And then I loved the well, this is
gonna sound bad now, but it's when Emilia is having
his whole what he tells him I did that Larry
Lester's buns together and all that, which is funny, and
also said the part that really got me that I
(46:37):
had sort of forgot about was Brian being like that
was you? And I felt like I felt like Brian
like that was his buddy, and he was like you
son of a you know, like a little bit like yeah,
I know him, He's my really good friend, and that
you know, like really upper you know whatever it was
gonna be. We never get that, but I felt like
(46:59):
that was you, was what that was saying. And I
just I thought was so great, and I thought Amelia
was wonderful in that scene, and it was you know,
talking about how bad he felt about it, and the
sort of like grander theme, right of like passing on
our you know, like our our trauma to kids or
(47:19):
to other people or whatever, and the way we affect
those around us. I just I really liked that scene
a lot. It's not the most fun scene in the world,
but I think right after that is also when we
hear Brian talk about his stuff, right and then, and
I love that they go out of that by laughing
at him, you know.
Speaker 2 (47:36):
Like that.
Speaker 3 (47:37):
It's just it's it's so relatable because it is serious
and it's sad and terrible, but it is also like
we got it, you know, I don't know I thought
that Levity was really great, So I loved both both
those scenes of Ton Yeah.
Speaker 2 (47:52):
Same, that was another one that I wrote down as well.
Speaker 3 (47:56):
Nice.
Speaker 2 (47:56):
Yeah, and the only the I mean, there's so many
scenes in this, But another way I put down was
just when Bender takes the screw out of the door
and then they kind of all cover for him.
Speaker 3 (48:08):
Yeah, that was fun.
Speaker 2 (48:09):
I did like, Okay, so they're like looking out for
each other. Why are they doing that? Like it's pretty
early on, you know, So yeah, I thought that was
kind of fun.
Speaker 5 (48:19):
Yeah, they just naturally will sort of tribe up when
the grown ups are around. Yeah, right, they will unite
against that no matter how they feel about each other otherwise. Right,
and you know, you can put his head between Claire's
legs and she'll cover for it.
Speaker 3 (48:37):
Because yeah, I didn't like that part. That really was like, yeah,
that's not cool. Man, thought it was the eighties. What
are you? What are you going to do?
Speaker 2 (48:46):
Yeah? For sure, Well cool, the dingus has been chosen.
Unless you guys are talking about any more scenes.
Speaker 5 (48:53):
Little one that that really made me this time, the
basketball scene. It's I love how it's shot and how
it's acted. I also love that, like we're saying Bender
is covering for these people that he ostensibly hates.
Speaker 4 (49:06):
At that point in the movie, but again.
Speaker 5 (49:09):
It's better to keep them safe away from the principal.
But you know, the fake throws of the basketball and
then rolling it town and then getting kicked back, and
the jumping out of his shoe. I mean, there's there's
so much like kind of physical stuff that I really
enjoy about that. How it's a wide shot, almost like
you're just in the corner of the gym watching it.
I think that was a very different little part.
Speaker 4 (49:31):
Of the movie than everything else too.
Speaker 2 (49:34):
I always loved how he said, I'm thinking of trying
out for a scholarsh shit. Yeah. I always loved how he.
Speaker 3 (49:39):
Sam Yeah, yeah, I love that. Yeah, I love that.
I was just gonna say I liked that because we've
seen him act this way towards authority the whole movie
and anyone around him. But knowing that there was like
a deeper meaning because he was covering for them really
was a fun It made me be like, Okay, was
there other point It's where he was doing something like
(50:01):
that that we don't, you know, a deeper meaning.
Speaker 4 (50:04):
He was using his skill set of being a dick
to help out.
Speaker 3 (50:07):
Yeah, yeah, totally, totally. I loved that. I also really
liked the whistling scene. Really cracked me up. It's like
a super dumb but up.
Speaker 2 (50:17):
Yeah, I don't know why. It's the bridge on the river. Kwai.
Speaker 3 (50:22):
Okay, that's what it's. I know, And obviously yeah we can't.
We'll get that through the room. Yeah totally. I just
thought that was fun and very like levity eighties movie stuff,
(50:42):
which I like.
Speaker 2 (50:43):
Nice.
Speaker 3 (50:44):
That was all the ones I had.
Speaker 2 (50:46):
Awesome, Well, let's go and talk about some of these
quotes and let show me the money, show me the money,
show me.
Speaker 3 (50:59):
What he got are quote sabe.
Speaker 5 (51:02):
So I scan through dozens and dozens and there's lots
of great I mean, the whole movie.
Speaker 4 (51:08):
I feel like it's a great quote in some ways.
Speaker 5 (51:10):
But I landed on I landed on Carl h Janitor,
Carl saying to Principal Dick, come on, vern, the kids
haven't changed, you have, you know, And it's that timeless
you know, teenage or whatever, you know, defying yourself. And
now he's frustrated because he's not them anymore, and he
wants them to conform, and they're fighting against them, and
(51:31):
it's something that will happen in every generation, and it's
silly for him to think that he's special essentially.
Speaker 2 (51:38):
Yeah, yeah, dude, love that.
Speaker 3 (51:42):
Uh you've changed. Yeah, that's so great. Do you have
any other ones? Right off the bat?
Speaker 5 (51:48):
The other one that I liked a lot is when
they're talking about their parents and Bender asks Emilio's character
if he gets on his parents and he correctly catches
them to does a trap you the way? If I
say yes and this, I say, yeah, that's right, idiot,
And so Bender says the quote is you're an idiot anyway,
(52:10):
but if you say you get along with your parents,
you're a liar too. And so I think that's, you know,
again reflecting some of those universal.
Speaker 4 (52:17):
Truths in this movie of you know, you're lying if.
Speaker 5 (52:22):
You because you're either fake getting along with them or
you're really not and you're saying you are.
Speaker 2 (52:26):
Yeah right, that's great. Oh yeah, those are deeper than
I was gonna say. Molay really pumps my nads. Yeah really, Yeah.
I love his work. I love how he goes in
this work. You're a neo MAXI zoom dweebee. That's impressive.
Speaker 4 (52:52):
That was improvised too, I found out I saw that too.
Speaker 3 (52:55):
That's crazy.
Speaker 2 (52:57):
Yeah, that's a peak eighties. Like I said, anytime I
see that actor Paul Gleeson, the next time I have
to come in here, I'm cracking skull.
Speaker 3 (53:09):
Yeah, what's his other one? He know is the don't
mess with the bull, young man, You'll get the horns.
Speaker 2 (53:15):
The horns. Yeah, such a good This one made me
laugh this time, and I don't think I even remembered it.
But what do you need a fake ID for? So
I can vote?
Speaker 3 (53:27):
So I can vote?
Speaker 2 (53:30):
I loved that, which I believe.
Speaker 3 (53:31):
Was also improvised.
Speaker 2 (53:32):
I think I saw that in the Tribu, which I love. That.
Does Barry Manilow know that he raided his wardrobe? Was
really great, really good. I felt like some of the
things it was just how they said it, like the
scholars ship and.
Speaker 3 (53:47):
Then the scholarship.
Speaker 2 (53:49):
Hey, how Commandrew gets to get up? If he gets up,
we'll all get up. It'll be anarchy. He does that. Uh,
what if you're home? What if your family? What if
you're dope? Was on fire? Impossible, sir. It's in Johnson's
underwear fats too, when he says that he's just like cool, Yeah,
(54:11):
it's like you really said it? Still, why did you
do that? And then the last one, I'll say it
makes me think of my sister. My sister would always
quote this this whole thing, the son, Yeah dad, how
was your day? Son? Great dad? How's yours? Super? Say?
How would you like to go fishing this weekend? Great dad?
(54:35):
But I got homework to do. That's okay, son, you
can do it on the boat. Gee hone, isn't our
son swell? Yes, dear, isn't life swell? My sister would
do that all the time. So shout out to Jen.
Speaker 3 (54:54):
She picks the weirdest quotes she does.
Speaker 2 (54:57):
I love it. It's great, wonderful. I love that up us.
Speaker 3 (55:04):
I have a bunch of jud ones. He's like, they're
talking about the screw that fell out, and he's like, well,
I don't have it, sir.
Speaker 2 (55:11):
Screws follow out all the time.
Speaker 3 (55:13):
The world is an imperfect place, just like what a
dick in the best way. Also, when he's like can
you hear this? Do you need me to turn it
up as he's flicking them off or whatever, that's pretty good.
I didn't remember that, but I liked it. The two
hits me hitting you, you hitting the floor. I didn't
(55:36):
know that was I don't know was it?
Speaker 2 (55:39):
I think I don't know.
Speaker 3 (55:41):
I've definitely heard that a bunch, but yeah, I don't know.
It made me think. Maybe it did. Also when they
go get the weed from his locker and Brian's just.
Speaker 2 (55:50):
Like drugs, drugs, He's got marijuana.
Speaker 3 (55:53):
That was marijuana, and then he like looks to there
and he's like.
Speaker 2 (55:57):
Do you approve of this? Yeah? He says that to Ali.
Speaker 3 (56:02):
He's just so funny in that scene. It's so so great.
I love it.
Speaker 2 (56:07):
Let's see.
Speaker 3 (56:09):
Are you manically frigid or is it psychological? That was
really fun. And then I did not remember this one,
but you know what you said? It's jud talking to
uh oh, I can't think of her name right now.
Speaker 2 (56:25):
Ringwold, Yes, the Ringworld.
Speaker 3 (56:27):
Yes, uh they're talking and he's like, you know what
you said before about how your parents use you to
get back at each other. Wouldn't I be outstanding in
that capacity?
Speaker 2 (56:39):
Line?
Speaker 3 (56:40):
Yeah, cracked me up. I was like, yeah, there's the
teenage boy, we all know him.
Speaker 2 (56:44):
Love. Was it just me? Or did he seem like
he had flunked a bunch? He seems so much older
than every way older, a little grace. Yes, yeah, like
what I got going on right there? But you know, yeah,
he did not look like a high schooler to me
at all anyway.
Speaker 3 (57:06):
Yeah, one hundred agree with that for sure.
Speaker 2 (57:09):
One more.
Speaker 5 (57:11):
Yeah, Emil, you're saying I've seen her dehydrated.
Speaker 4 (57:14):
It's pretty gross.
Speaker 2 (57:15):
Yeah, it's pretty gross. I have a really little tolerance
for dehydrating. That's good.
Speaker 3 (57:21):
That is great.
Speaker 2 (57:22):
Another one I liked when they have the lunch out.
He's like, well, Brian, this is a very nutritious lunch.
All the food groups are represented. Did your mom marry
mister Rogers? H No, mister Johnson, I did love that one.
Speaker 3 (57:41):
No, mister Johnson.
Speaker 2 (57:44):
Nice. Anybody else want to say any others?
Speaker 4 (57:46):
We covered mine?
Speaker 2 (57:47):
Yeah? I think, well let's go to bugs boohoo. Moments
the crying game. I decided to pick three. I feel
like there could be more, and who knows, maybe there's less,
but I picked three. The first one I said was,
it's kind of when the principal's going after Bender and
(58:10):
he says, you want to see something funny, go visit
John Bender in five years, and then that kind of
leads into him going into the closet area having to
and then like really gets in his face. I felt
like maybe there might have been a tear.
Speaker 3 (58:28):
Yeah, that got me, mostly because I thought he did
a good job acting there he's really afraid he's going
to beat out of him.
Speaker 2 (58:35):
And that was when it was.
Speaker 3 (58:37):
One of the one of the well, it was like
the first time in the movie for sure that we're like, oh,
maybe he is being truthful about you know, his parents
and his dad and whatever like, not that we didn't
believe him before, but it was like, oh maybe you know,
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (58:54):
That really was a light bulb and you can see
it stern emotions in him probably.
Speaker 3 (58:57):
Yeah, yeah, totally totally, and that brashness like goes away,
right and.
Speaker 2 (59:03):
He's scared, yeah, vulnerable.
Speaker 3 (59:05):
Yeah, that got me for sure.
Speaker 2 (59:07):
I thought maybe the Emilio crying about taping that dude's
butt cheeks together, absolutely, which is a funny premise initially
press Yeah.
Speaker 3 (59:18):
But Brian really got me, Like that was you like,
oh sad, well.
Speaker 2 (59:22):
But then when he's like crying about just talking about
how humiliated he must have felt having to tell his
dad about it, Yes, that was really cool. And then yeah,
then the next one the Anthony Michael Hall crying about
needing to be perfect and the reason why he was
in attention. Yeah, yep, yeah, so yeah, and I don't
(59:45):
think you cried it like the kissing from either one
of them. Now, So I'm gonna stick with three, Abe,
Do you think there is any other ones?
Speaker 5 (59:54):
I had three the first two you mentioned, and then
when Emilio was talking to Ali, it's the end like
post pot smoking and she's talking about how the family
he ignores her. But it got me a little bit,
like seeing him not being his father that journey and
him wanting to talk.
Speaker 4 (01:00:12):
He can see she's upset.
Speaker 5 (01:00:14):
He wants to basically not be the jock at that point,
and he's becoming his own person, and you can see
him caring about her, which like the jock is not
supposed to do. And so seeing those walls come down,
come down like that got me a bit, and so
I figured it had to gotten bugs.
Speaker 3 (01:00:30):
It did.
Speaker 2 (01:00:30):
Yeah, smart, smart.
Speaker 3 (01:00:32):
And specifically like uh yeah, just like you said, like
he doesn't necessarily have the tools, but he wants to,
you know, he's got the want to to figure it out.
And I think that's really reliable, relatable.
Speaker 5 (01:00:45):
I wrote down the last three lines of that where
he says she says her parents ignore her.
Speaker 4 (01:00:51):
He says, what do they do to you? They ignore me?
Speaker 5 (01:00:53):
And then he just says a really quiet yeah, like
him too maybe, or like they ignore me the real.
Speaker 3 (01:01:01):
Yep, like they're and they're all just kind of saying
it right, Like they don't see me, they.
Speaker 5 (01:01:06):
Don't write, they're not those separate things.
Speaker 3 (01:01:11):
Yeah, totally.
Speaker 2 (01:01:13):
I love that.
Speaker 3 (01:01:15):
Uh, that was all of them.
Speaker 2 (01:01:17):
Thanks for the assistance, Yeah, nailed it.
Speaker 3 (01:01:20):
Good job boys.
Speaker 2 (01:01:21):
Well, then let's hit some movie trivia then movie trivia.
Speaker 3 (01:01:25):
So there was a ton of this so I only
picked a few, but it's still quite a few. So
if I missed any good ones, let me know. But
the scene in which all the characters sit in a
circle on the floor in the library and tell the
stories about why they're in attention, that wasn't scripted. Writer
and director John Hughes told them all to add lib
(01:01:45):
So that's pretty wild.
Speaker 2 (01:01:48):
That's nuts.
Speaker 3 (01:01:49):
It's like my favorite scene and you know, other than
lunching obviously, but it's such a fun scene. That's cool.
I don't know, I love it.
Speaker 2 (01:01:59):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (01:02:00):
John Hughes said his biggest regret about the film was
using the breaking glass effect during the marijuana scene and
even the beginning of the movie that was weird.
Speaker 4 (01:02:10):
So like the Bowie quote and then the shattering.
Speaker 3 (01:02:13):
Yeah right right, it's just kind of strange, but also
very eighties, So what are you gonna do? Apparently, Judd
Nelson's stating character even off camera, bullying Molly Ringwalald a
lot of the time too, and John Hughes nearly fired
him over it, but Paul Gleeson came to Nelson's defense
(01:02:34):
and said he was a good actor. He was just
trying to get into character. So I don't know. That
kind of sucks.
Speaker 4 (01:02:39):
But she was only fifteen at the time too shooting it.
Speaker 3 (01:02:43):
Wow, whoa, she was fifteen? Yeah, wow, that's crazy. I
still thought she looked older than Brian. Wow, that's crazy.
So yeah, that's interesting. In twenty ten, Molly ring Wald
and Anthony Michael Hall told Vanity Fair magazine that John
(01:03:04):
Hughes was receptive to the actors improvisations, and some of them,
including this so I can vote and the other things
we already talked about, made it into the final film.
So that's just kind of cool. I like that, very
like he's very collaborative, which is super cool because he
didn't need to be. You know, he was on such
(01:03:25):
a heater for so long that like, I don't know
that he would have had to be. But pretty fun.
But oh, Jed Nelson improvised the part at the closing
of the film where he raises his hand in defiance.
So wild because like you said, that's such an iconic
you know, big picture and song and you know it's just.
Speaker 2 (01:03:48):
As big as like the boombox over the head, you
know what I.
Speaker 4 (01:03:51):
Mean, Yes, absolutely, movie poster.
Speaker 2 (01:03:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:03:57):
But yeah, so they they like went through a bunch
of different things and he I think that was the
last one he tried, you know, to just and they
were like, yep, we like it, we love that. So
that was kind of neat. I always think this is
interesting because I sort of always think it's this way,
But this film was shot in sequence, just because I
think it'd be weird to shoot a film out of sequence.
(01:04:18):
But it's cool that they did it. So that's kind
of fun. And I guess if you're going to add
lib you kind of need to just in case it
to fix things down the line. Maybe. John Hughes wrote
the screenplay for this movie in two days. It was
July fourth and fifth of nineteen eighty two, and he
was like, crazy.
Speaker 2 (01:04:37):
Don I'll just have him ad lib that scene. I
don't write it. I'll put him. I'll tell him what
to do, kind of like what the premise is. I
can just go Yeah, nice.
Speaker 3 (01:04:50):
Benders. Flinch when Vernon fakes a punch was genuine. Judd
Nelson really thought he was going to hit him. So
that's intense.
Speaker 2 (01:04:57):
That's a different time. Yeah. Absolutely.
Speaker 3 (01:05:00):
According to Molly Ringwald, Claire was originally scripted as having
pasta salad for lunch, but Ali Sheedy suggested to John
Hughes that she eats sushi, which was considered a luxury
food at the time and maybe still is. I don't
know how those things work.
Speaker 2 (01:05:17):
According also to Molly Ringwald, that's just the same one.
I wrote it twice. Good job by me.
Speaker 3 (01:05:25):
I I love pasta salad. You know this about me.
Judd Nelson went undercover at a local high school outside
of Chicago when they were when they were shooting this film,
he convinced teenagers that he was a legitimate student. He
bought them beer with his quote unquote fake id because
(01:05:46):
he was twenty four at the time apparently, so we
know that. So that's not great. And then later had
them drop him off at a hotel where he was
staying and years later he would reminisce on this and
be like, Yeah, I just told them my dad was
in jail and that's why I was at the West
and O'Hair, Well, my dad was incarcerated.
Speaker 2 (01:06:07):
Weird.
Speaker 3 (01:06:08):
That's a real weird story.
Speaker 4 (01:06:10):
They were pretty drunk, so they believed them.
Speaker 3 (01:06:13):
Yeah, these kids, I bought booze for interesting.
Speaker 2 (01:06:18):
Ah, so that's something.
Speaker 3 (01:06:20):
Anthony Michael Hall's actual mother and younger sister were the
two people that were playing them in the beginning of
the film, so that's fun. Those are actual family members,
which is neat. I thought this was great. The clothes
that Jed Nelson is wearing are the ones that he
(01:06:40):
auditioned for the role with, so that's just his outfit.
I guess that's cool, kind of weird and fun.
Speaker 2 (01:06:47):
I like that.
Speaker 3 (01:06:49):
And in the beginning of the movie, there's different shots
of the school hallways and classrooms that are shown and
you can see like the flare gun, the locker that's
like burnt out from the Lairer gun and all that.
That's in there, but there's also a picture of a
former Schrmer High School student Man of the Year, and
the man in that picture is Carl Reid, who the
(01:07:11):
janitor Carl, which I thought was kind of interesting. I
didn't catch that obviously, but it was oh no, no,
I didn't. I guess I was maybe not paying attention
yet or something.
Speaker 2 (01:07:19):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (01:07:20):
Yeah, but yeah, I didn't I catch it.
Speaker 2 (01:07:22):
I was like, oh, that guy looks really familiar. And
then when he came in that wow, yeah, that's why.
Speaker 3 (01:07:28):
Yeah. And then I'll just say my last one that
I have is a lot of people thought that his
dad was the janitor. Brian's dad was the janitor at
first when they saw this, and then they were like,
why does he have this relationship with him? And I
read some trivia that I think maybe even Hughes said it,
but it was because Brian would often spend time alone
(01:07:50):
in the library studying, and so he just got to
know the janitor and they were pals. I thought that
was kind of cool, cool because even says goodbye to
him as their.
Speaker 2 (01:07:59):
Lead, right, you know.
Speaker 3 (01:08:01):
I just thought that was neat.
Speaker 2 (01:08:02):
That was neat.
Speaker 3 (01:08:03):
That was all the trivia I had did you have
some pal?
Speaker 2 (01:08:06):
I did? John Hughes said getting the film greenlit by
Universal wasn't easy because the executives complained there were no
bare breasts, no party scene, no guys drinking beer or
other things they thought a teenage picture needed at that time. Wow,
which I just thought different experiences right, true? I just
(01:08:31):
thought that was an interesting sentence to read. Yeah, for sure.
John Cusack auditioned several times for Bender, even traveling between
Chicago and LA before being cast. However, John Hughes went
in a different direction, dropped Cusack in favor of Judd Nelson,
which was heavily influenced by the casting director. Wild Yeah,
(01:08:57):
done it right, Oh, he could have totally nice. Kisag
was awesome.
Speaker 3 (01:09:01):
He's great.
Speaker 2 (01:09:02):
Yeah. And the theme song Don't You Forget About Me
was written for the film by Keith Forcey. It was
a number one hit for Simple Minds, but pretty cool.
It was made for the movie's wild Yeah yeah, Abe.
Did you have any other things? Trivia?
Speaker 4 (01:09:21):
Wise?
Speaker 5 (01:09:21):
I do have one more that I wrote down in
addition to the improvised stuff that Bukes talked about. John
Singleton reviewed it for his high school paper in LA
and said it really made an impact on him and
quote gave him the template.
Speaker 4 (01:09:36):
For boys in the hood. Wow, that was that jumped.
Speaker 2 (01:09:40):
Out of me.
Speaker 5 (01:09:41):
It was something I had really assumed. And he even
made the comment, He's like, I didn't care they're all
white kids. It was like there was some some real
things there that I really liked about.
Speaker 4 (01:09:48):
You know, that kind of things.
Speaker 5 (01:09:51):
Yeah, and then I don't know how common knowledge it was,
but also just kind of clicking into John Hughes's Wikipedia page,
I didn't realize that he had written National Lampoon's Vacation
is like one of his first industry things, And so that.
Speaker 4 (01:10:06):
Kind of got him on the Hollywood radar.
Speaker 5 (01:10:09):
And there was some like two pitcher deal where he
was going to make Pretty in Pink and Breakfast Club,
but he had to make Pretty and Pink first because
that was like the easier sell, and then then this
one was already ready to go, but it had to
be second.
Speaker 3 (01:10:23):
Okay, cool, cool, nice, that's grace, very cool.
Speaker 2 (01:10:29):
Yeah, Oh go ahead, did you have one more?
Speaker 1 (01:10:31):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (01:10:32):
And just just also jumped out that he was still
in his thirties.
Speaker 5 (01:10:34):
He was born in nineteen fifty, so he didn't turn
forty until nineteen ninety Joyes so kind of impressively young
for such a big eighties career.
Speaker 2 (01:10:44):
Yes, dude, wild he was putting out so much stuff.
He was writing so much that like other people would
have to direct just so he could like keep getting
everything out. Yeah, it was nuts. Yeah, that's that's impressive.
It was super impressive. That's nice. Well, Judgment Day. Will
there be a sequel? Yeah, there was trivia about this.
(01:11:08):
Did you see the trivia about a rep? I did?
Speaker 3 (01:11:10):
Yeah, Okay, I wrote it.
Speaker 2 (01:11:12):
The Last Club.
Speaker 3 (01:11:14):
Yeah. The Originally it was suggested that there was gonna
be several sequels to this movie occurring every ten years,
where they would get back together.
Speaker 2 (01:11:23):
And it didn't.
Speaker 3 (01:11:23):
It didn't happen because apparently John Hughes and John Nelson
didn't get along super well. It was pretty volatile their relationship.
And then I think also Molly Ringwald and him also
didn't get along super well.
Speaker 2 (01:11:39):
Well, John Hughes isn't around anymore. All those actors are
star around, Like, they could absolutely do a little Brunch
Club parents. That'd be great, it'd be interesting. I'd be
interested in seeing that. But yeah, I feel like all

Speaker 2 (02:37):
Yeah, I did not We did an actual not talk.
Speaker 3 (02:39):
Oh god, it was so cute. And then I had
to read that thing and I was just.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
Like, I you did great, you did great.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
Your sister was like, there's no way that's amember that.
Speaker 2 (02:53):

But she's the best, So happy bath Data kels.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
She's absolutely Yeah, how wonderful. It's fun time.
Speaker 3 (03:07):
Have you been watching any films you know?
Speaker 2 (03:09):
I have? Thank you for asking God. I had brought
this up when we did our Q and A for
our patrons, but I thought I would talk about it here.
I watched the new controversial film Amelia Perez. Have you
been able to consume it yet?
Speaker 3 (03:24):
I haven't seen it. I thought about watching it tonight
and I was just like, not enough time quite so yeah,
I pushed it off.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
How is it? Well, it's kind of all over the place.
People feel strongly about this. You can currently watch it
on Netflix if you're interested. It stars Zoe Saldana, Selena Gomez,
and a transactor named Carla Sophia Gascon and it's about
(03:52):
the head of a drug cartel who wants to become
a woman. They then fake their death and become a woman,
and Zoe's done is pretty much forced into making all
of the arrangements. That's how she is involved. Wow, And
then it gets pretty wild and it's wild.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
Yeah, yeah, that's a cool pitch for a movie that's
super interesting.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
I thought the story was actually pretty cool. But the
thing that puts this over the top is that it's
a musical. Oh and the music didn't really do it
for me. That's very difficult if it's a musical. Yeah,
(04:35):
so the songs, like, none of the songs really grab me.
There's not like a show stopper. All of the singers
are pretty average, like not terrible, but not like wow, they're.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
Really Cynthia Ribo out there though, that's just like what
exactly exactly?
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Yeah, there's none of that. But yeah, it sounds like
the trans community isn't super into it. The Mexican community
isn't it isn't super into it. Yeah, people who love
musicals aren't into it. So it's kind of shocking. It
got thirteen Oscar nominations and everybody's just like why why?
Speaker 3 (05:15):
I know, I Like, the only thing I really have
heard about it is everyone's like everyone is panning it
so hard that you know, all these actors that are
included in it are going out and kind of being like,
I don't know what they want from us. This sucks
that we're getting such a bad rap and they're like,
you got nominated for thirteen Oscars. It's not like you're
you know, like yeah, bat and low in the order. Like,
(05:38):
I don't know what to tell you. We can give
criticism of it, and I don't know anything about it.
But I just thought that was really funny to be like,
well what do you want? You know?
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Right? But Zoisldania's pretty great and she does get to
show off her voice and she's it. I don't know
if done a lot of that. I hadn't. Yeah, interesting, Yeah,
she's pretty good. I think she won the Golden Globe,
so you know, it's it's worth checking out. Yeah, but
(06:08):
like on IMDb, it's like a five point seven currently rated,
which you know for a movie that's thirteen oscar now
think it's at least in the sevens or something.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
But well, I mean, you know, not every movie has
to be for everyone either, So that's cool, right, interesting though,
wile Okay, yeah, cool, I'm pretty crazy.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
It's on Netflix. If you're interested.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
I will be checking it out at some point for sure.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Okay, well, what have you checked out recently?
Speaker 3 (06:37):
I saw a film that you recommended over on the
Hulu machine.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
I watched Thelma. Oh tell me what you thought.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
I mean, just what a lovely experience this was. You
were totally right. I loved it.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
So funny. This movie is so funny.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
I loved all the like the stylisation of making it
like an action film.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Yes, what these old on.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
Never I left every single time at every one of
those like it was so funny. And when they would
do the hearing aid bit where they'd be like, you'll
be with me, like spy stuff, but it's I loved it.
I thought that, like, there was so much joy in
this movie because it it was. It was very sweet
(07:30):
and at point it's like poignant in its own way,
but also like very silly and just lighthearted. And it
was absolutely what I needed. You know. The day I
watched it, I loved it. I thought it was great.
I thought the the gal who you said, June Squib.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Was really great. She was so good.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
You're totally right. That Fred Heshinger guy. Very different role
from his Gladiator performance, I.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Know, dude, And I think I saw those movies like Back.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
To I remember you saying that that is weird, jarring, jarring.
But Richard Rowntree was a delight in it. He had
a great moment. I mean, he's such a great actor anyway,
But yeah, I just loved everything about it. It was
just so fun, like such a fun idea, very lighthearted,
like I said, and then also like they had all
(08:23):
the pieces of an action flick, like but with the
joke being you know, obviously there. I don't know, I
just really liked it that. It was really really can.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
You see why it made my top ten from last year? Absolutely? Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
I think if earlier it definitely would have had a chance,
it would have made a runner up at least for sure.
But yeah, I just really I liked it. It was
very charming, very good. It's on Hulu. I didn't recognize
anything this Josh Margolin had really done before. And we
even talked about director writer. Yeah he wrote and directed. Yeah, yeah,
(08:59):
so I look forward to whatever he does next. You know, Like,
I don't know, I really like the vibe of this.
Maybe he never gets it back, but I feel like,
if you do this, you gotta have some other cool
stuff coming, you gotta. Yeah, So it was really fun.
I really liked it so good. I'm so glad wreck budd. Yes,
how about streaming? Have you been streaming anything I have.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Yeah, I went over to the Apple Machine and I
finished the second season of Silo. Did you finish that? No,
I haven't even started it. You saw the first season though,
right talked about that.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
Yeah, I just have it the second one.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Yeah. So it's the same folks. For the most part,
it's a great show. We added Steve's on to this season,
which is always a Plaus's amazing, But I did kind
of feel like this was a season that was like
setting up what's to come a little bit. Sure, all
(09:58):
of Rebecca Ferguson's felt really drawn out until like the
awesome ending of this season. It's it's a I'm excited
to see where they go from here, but I felt
like there was kind of a lot of filler in
this season, if I'm being like super honest. But with
(10:19):
where they ended, I feel like it's gonna get nuts. So, yeah,
that's cool.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
I'm excited to watch that. I will have to do that.
How was the accent in year two?
Speaker 2 (10:32):
I have kind of just tried to give Yeah, okay,
that's fair. You know. It was like the first like
four or five episodes, I was driving me nuts and
just like I just I like the show. Yeah, I'm
now now I'm more bugged by Common and just how
like everything that comes out of his mouth sounds like
(10:56):
so cool. Just like he's like he's this like cool
rapper and he is just not that in this like
he's supposed to be this kind of like whatever. But
I kind of have a hard time with Common. I
get that he's too cool.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
It's just like dripping with gravitas everything, even if he's
bring me a chocolate milk.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Right, It's just like he just sounds like he's gonna
like spit some rhymes like he's he is cool dude.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
Yeah, yeah, I like that. That's funny.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Nice, Nice. But that's on Apple. What have you been streaming?
Speaker 3 (11:30):
I actually also have an Apple TV Plus recommendation seven
season two. I've been watching Nice. I don't know if
you've checked it out yet. First two episodes okay, cool?
Speaker 2 (11:42):
I think I watched three. He was at least three.
Is there three out?
Speaker 3 (11:45):
I think I'm caught up anyway, it doesn't matter. A
really fun, really crazy weird show in all the best ways.
Uh yeah, it seems funnier this season to me, Like
they I feel like they they jacked up the funniness
maybe a little bit, which is great.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
I feel like it was so long ago when we
saw the first season. How long ago was it?
Speaker 3 (12:10):
It was at least a year ago. I actually rewatched
it before I watched this one, so it smart.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
I felt a little disconnected because I did not do that.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Yeah, that's kind of I was. Before I started. I
was like, I don't really remember a lot, so I
go back, which was fun. It made it.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
It made it fun to come.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Right back into it. So but yeah, it's it's just great.
It's so good. They're all so good, and there's intrigue
and I don't know just all the things.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Yeah, it was two full years ago. It was, no, no, no,
it was. It came out February twenty twenty two, so
three three years. It was really that long. Yes, yes, boy,
it doesn't seem that long.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
But maybe I watched it way late or something.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
I watched it. I watched it pretty much in one
day when we were performing in Niagara Falls, I had
this amazing hotel room of overlooking Niagara Falls, and I
was like, Oh, I should really go out and enjoy this. No,
but dude, this show is nut. So I like put
the iPad in the window so I could like see
(13:24):
Niagara Falls and.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
Very separency. Actually, so you really worked out.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
It was fun. It was fun.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
I love that. But yeah, really great show. It's it's
been really fun. Yeah, I feel like you can't really
talk about anything in it because it's all like who
knows what? Is a spoiler not? But it's really fun
and it's one of those shows where like I go
and look at the message boards and I'm like, yep,
I don't know what's happening at all in the best way,
you know.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
Right, Yeah, it kind of feels like Lost or something.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
Absolutely there's all this like intrigue around it. But man,
it's shot so wonderfully.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Ben Stiller does a great job.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
But episode three, you're gonna love it. It's really I
have watched three for sure because it was nuts. So yeah,
it's a really fun. Go check it out Apple TV.

Speaker 2 (19:07):
Ape have seen any great movies lately.
Speaker 5 (19:12):
I've been watching a lot of anime, actually, so just
last night I caught up on Sakamoto Days on Netflix,
which is excellent.
Speaker 4 (19:20):
And I've been really good. Yeah about that.
Speaker 5 (19:24):
And then Castlevania the season three just came out as
well there, which my friend Adam up and I we've
watched that religiously.
Speaker 4 (19:31):
He's very excited about.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
Say, he's obsessed with that. Yeah. And then the other one,
did you watch that arcane show?
Speaker 4 (19:38):
I have that saved on my watch list. I haven't
gotten to it yet, but it's.
Speaker 3 (19:41):
I don't know if that's anime. I think it's animated anyway,
but I've heard that's really good too.
Speaker 4 (19:44):
I think it counts.
Speaker 5 (19:46):
And then the final one that I get in there
is a Blue Eyed Samurai, which is maybe my favorite
out of everything so far.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
It's really that's incredible.
Speaker 4 (19:53):
Not for kids, but it's it's a ride nice.
Speaker 3 (19:57):
I love it. We'll go check out some anime.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
You kids do it? I love it?
Speaker 3 (20:02):
Uh, well, what do you guys to think? Should we
get right into it?
Speaker 2 (20:04):
We talk about the Breakfast Club? Breakfast Club forty years old?
Forty man?
Speaker 3 (20:11):
That that feels old?
Speaker 2 (20:13):
It does? It does? But Rob, will you get it started?
With just a rough SYNOPSI yeah. Five high school students
from different walks of life endure a Saturday detention under
a power hungry principle. The disparate group includes rebel John,
Princess Claire, Outcast, Alison, Brainy, Bryan, and Andrew the jock.
(20:37):
Each has a chance to tell his or her story,
making the others see them a little differently, and when
the day ends, they question whether school will ever be
the same. Dun, dun, dun.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
Nice. Yeah, I agreed.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Let's go Rotten Tomith. Let's hear what they have to say.
Speaker 3 (20:56):
Critics have it's coming in at a rock solid eighty
nine percent.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Eighty nine.
Speaker 3 (21:01):
It is high that I liked it, and audience members
are like right there with them, even a scouch above
that at ninety two.
Speaker 2 (21:08):
Yeah, dude, this is a beloved film.
Speaker 3 (21:11):
Beloved indeed, I love it. Those are very high. I
like it. Let's hear what we think. It's time for
our hot take.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
Hot take. Oh, ouch, that's a hot take. That's a
hot take. Captain crunch sandwich spicy. Okay. I was like,
I got nothing for this one.
Speaker 3 (21:33):
No, I like. I like to think these are proof
that we don't like think.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Of a lady, certainly don't. Yeah, I think they know. Yeah,
I think probably. Let's just get into it.
Speaker 3 (21:44):
Yeah, so I'll go first. I like this movie quite
a lot. It's not one I watched a lot as
a kid, but I have now seen it several times
as an adult. I think it really plays into that
sort of the angst of just being a teen and
like on the verge of adulthood, not knowing who you are,
(22:05):
but like really wanting to take that next step and
not knowing how to feel about it, and and also
kind of finding your people, which I think is really
important for kids to hear about. And I really like
that this was like right in the heyday of that
that Brat Pack sort of time frame, which is really cool.
Although after watching that documentary they didn't love that name.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
I found out I haven't seen that.
Speaker 3 (22:32):
It's really good. If either of you are interested in
that the Brat Pack documentary, I think it's just called
the Brats or something. I don't really remember. But it's
really really good. It's super interesting and not it's not
just about their history. It's also about like what's happened
to them since and today and all that good stuff.
(22:53):
It's it's really really cool. Yeah, I don't know. I
don't I don't have like a ton of hot takes
about this movie. I think it's pretty well acted, even
though like I sort of hate some of the characters
at points. I kind of think you're supposed to you. Yeah,
for sure, especially the principle he's a straight dickhead, like
he's the worst man, don't love him. The most well
(23:17):
adjusted person in this movie is the janitor, who, like
everyone looks down on a little bit, which kind of sucks.
But yeah, I just I think this movie's really well done.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
It is.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
It turns a corner about halfway through and does such
a good job that I really really still enjoy it.
But the first half is a little tough for me
to watch for whatever reason. I don't know if it
just feels stressful or something. Sure, but I think I
don't know. I just that will be evergreen, the like
worrying that we're going to be exactly like our parents
(23:49):
and then you know, finding out like, oh that's actually
not so bad and everyone has a tough time, you know,
like they don't get there in this movie, but that
that part of that journey is really important and it's evergreen.
Like I feel like you could make this movie today,
and you know, like the set pieces would be different,
but the like the gist of it could be exactly
(24:11):
the same, right, And I think that's that's how you know,
you tapped into something important with art, which I think
is cool. But my hottest take nine hours is fing
insane for a detention. That is crazy.
Speaker 2 (24:24):
That is.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
That's not like a thing that happens, right, because we
had detention and I even got it a couple of times,
sure easily for talking. I know that's surprising to everyone,
but it was like an hour nine hours.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
Yeah, no, that's insane.
Speaker 3 (24:45):
This is crazy.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
Yeah, we got.
Speaker 4 (24:47):
Some Saturday detentions at my high school. I went one.
Speaker 5 (24:51):
I'm trying to remember how long it was, but I
know it was at least like four hours. I want
to say it was like a half an eye to
one or something like that.
Speaker 4 (24:58):
But this is a long time ago. You could smoke
cigarettes and bring guns to school, so yeah.
Speaker 3 (25:03):
Right, well you could do that when I went to
school too. Yeah, but that's man, that's crazy. That's too.
I just can't imagine teachers would be like, yeah, sure, yes,
I mean screw that. Yeah, but yeah, that's pretty wild.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
That was my hottest take, though, I guess hot take
bro hot Hot. This was a movie my sister and
I watched a bunch growing up, probably way before we
really should have been watching it, but whatever. We tended
to watch a lot of older things when we were younger.
This was written and directed by the prolific and amazing
(25:42):
John Hughes. This is now the seventh John Hughes film
we've done an episode on. Really, wow, isn't that crazy
a lot? I know? Damn, I know. It's pretty cool.
Maybe the most iconic opening and ending credits song like
of any movie ever. Absolutely, Like you hear that song
(26:05):
and you just see like the fist up in the air,
like absolutely. I thought it was pretty amazing that they're
able to keep our attention while like ninety percent of
the movie is in this library to school. I thought
the writing was was pretty great in that aspect, and
(26:26):
just the character building was like brilliant, really fun. So
some of this movie is like really moving and dramatic,
and then some of this movie is like over the
top melodramatic and takes me out of it.
Speaker 3 (26:41):
Yeah, that's kind of what I was feeling at parts,
especially in the beginning.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
I hear. Yeah, but pretty good young actors, some ended
up having bigger careers than others. Super fun to rewatch.
It had been a very long time since I'd seen it.
I got a couple of hot takes. Hot take Elio
Estevez getting all like roided out after he smokes weed
and is like violent dancing.
Speaker 3 (27:05):
He was smoking PCP or something, right, like what are
we doing here?
Speaker 2 (27:09):
I mean it made me feel just like, had anyone
involved with this film like smoked weed or even heard
about what it's like to be stoned, because it's just
like met to anyone who smoked weed?
Speaker 3 (27:20):
What's happening?
Speaker 2 (27:21):
Like that was.
Speaker 4 (27:22):
Bizarre theydness and went from there.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
Yeah, sure, so that has always stood out to me.
It's just like, what like because I felt like Anthony
Michael Hall did a really good job, like he seemed
like he was stoned, but then Emilio just went went
for it.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
Well he looked like I mean, he was like he
had snorted a lion or something like he went crazy,
you know, like he was in sout.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
Yeah. But another hot take, I can't believe that none
of these kids knew each other before this detention, Like
it must be the biggest.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
School he was up that that's a good question.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
They were all introducing themselves to each other, just like what.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
Like, okay, so that's good that you said that. I
came from a tiny school, so I was just like,
maybe this is a real thing.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
I went, you know, I had four hundred and seventy
kids in my class and we had tenth, eleventh, and twelfth,
so you know whatever that is like fifteen hundred kids. Yeah,
and like I knew most ever, at least, you know,
I wasn't introducing myself to you know what I mean
like that. That's always kind of been like, what is
(28:34):
this the first day of school? I don't understand.
Speaker 3 (28:36):
Also, if there's that many kids, there's only the five
of them that got to tension somehow, like.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
You know, yeah, I mean, I guess they're all in
different clicks. Clearly they're not, you know, so maybe that's
how you can get away with it, But that always
seemed a little far fetched to me.
Speaker 3 (28:52):
Yeah, I get that, nice hot take, buddy, Thanks, all right,
what do you got?
Speaker 2 (28:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (28:59):
I agree with that. I said. I saw this.
Speaker 5 (29:02):
Movie at ten years old, I think the first time
I saw it, And for me, it's an example of
the timing of when you first encounter things, and it
really like cracked my head open as far as like,
you know, I had some maybe pre junior high angst
about what it was going to be like.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
And so I'm watch studying this movie because it's like, Okay,
I'm going to encounter a bender, an encounter of Claire.
Speaker 5 (29:26):
And you know these you know, archetypes, and you know,
I remember the first time watching it was at my
grandmother's house. She had just gotten HBO and so it
was hitting HBO.
Speaker 4 (29:38):
My folks are pretty strict.
Speaker 5 (29:39):
They weren't supposed to watch rated OAR movies, but because
it was on TV, I don't think they even realized
that that was the case.
Speaker 4 (29:45):
So there was this like forbidden fruit aspect to it too.
Speaker 5 (29:49):
And it really is probably the ultimate eighties movie for me,
my favorite John Jews movie. It really like is what
I would put in the time capsule for that thing
of that of that era.
Speaker 4 (30:03):
And and like you said that that awkwardness of high school.
Speaker 5 (30:06):
As I was clicking around like trivia and stuff, I
saw a quote that I wish I had said, but
I'll steal it where it says they want to fit in,
but they don't want to conform. And I think that
really some kids looking for belonging but also rejecting things
at the same time. And so it's it's that really
like helped clear the lens for me as far as
(30:27):
you know, thinking about that too, So that was a
good way to sum it up. I felt like, Yeah,
and like you said, it all takes place placed in
a box essentially, and so you know, the high school
is almost a character that that room and that building
and stuff like that too, And so it makes me
think of like you know, Hitchcock did was life raft,
I think was that movie, whereas as some of those
(30:48):
other famous movies where it's all concealed. The Hateful Eight,
you know, also is another one where's that even the
door keeps slamming in that movie too, and so could
be an homage knowing Tarantino.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
Yeah, that's actually a great point.
Speaker 4 (31:03):
And that's fun and so yeah, I feel like, yeah,
you have to rely.
Speaker 3 (31:09):
So much more on the writing and the characters than
you know in those scenarios.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
So yeah, I love that. When those movies work, they're amazing.
Speaker 5 (31:17):
Yeah, it's a good testing to use his talent as
far as that kind of a thing, because sometimes the
simple stuff is the hardest.
Speaker 3 (31:24):
Yeah, absolutely love it. Yeah, because this could be a play, right, Yeah,
I look.
Speaker 2 (31:29):
At it, need it to be. Yeah, there was a
Broadway play.
Speaker 5 (31:33):
There was a Broadway Lane sort of not spoof version
of it like twenty years ago that I just learned
about today.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
But cools, that'd be fun. I would watch that for sure.
That's neat, well, hot takes all around. Nice work everybody.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
Yes, let's go in and do this.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
One might be a little tough, but let's go talk
about our favorite acting performance.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
Let's name the dude. The dude.
Speaker 4 (31:56):
I'm the dude.
Speaker 6 (31:58):
So that's what you call me, you know, uh that
or his dudeness or duder or you know, el dud reno.
If you're not into the whole brevity thing.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
Hey you got.
Speaker 5 (32:10):
I don't know if this is just the answer, but
Anthony Michael Hall for me, he's I feel like the
Greek chorus of the movie. It starts out with him
narrating it. He seems to always be half of the
interactions that I really like notice and resonate with me,
and he really just you know, you think of him
as that person I do, you know, and when i's
(32:33):
he's not even acting, which is probably how good of
an acting performance it is, but reminds me of some
of like Jesse Eisenberg's things that he does where it's
just like that's just sure, But I think again, that's
a testament to his performance more than anything.
Speaker 2 (32:48):
I love that. I love that. Have you seen the
new Jesse Eisenberg movie, by the way, I just lost
a tangent. Loved it. Yeah, so good. I felt that
way watching I was like, that's just him, that is yeah,
he is just I mean, it takes talent to act
your you know, even if you're just being yourself. But yeah, anyway,
(33:11):
I felt the exact same way. I came in thinking
that I was going to say jud Nelson because that
was kind of just like I always thought he was
so cool and awesome, and on this rewatch, I was
way more into what Anthony Michael Hall was doing. He's
so good in this. He seems like the only one
(33:33):
young enough to actually be in high school out of
all the other kids. Sure, I thought he was very
believable as the nerdy kid who needs to get straight a's.
I already mentioned he was the most believable with like
the weed smoking. He had a heartbreaking story about why
he was in detention, and then it also kind of
(33:54):
turned out to be hilarious too. Yeah, he was by
far my favorite, So I'm with.
Speaker 4 (34:00):
You, and yeah, I think Nelson was my one. Be
there too.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (34:05):
Nice, Yeah, I love that. Uh well, this is now
going to seem like I'm just stealing you guys, that's
who I landed on as well. But I, uh for,
like you said, Rob the I thought it was gonna
be Judd Nelson and and he was good, don't get
me wrong, But but I was like, oh man, I'm
really digging this performance by Anthony Michael Hall. I also
(34:27):
loved that he is he's really vulnerable and like he's
really cool in that he is true to himself kind
of the whole time still while also not being what
the cool kid is, you know, because he's like kind
of the peacemaker the whole time, like, hey, guys, maybe
we should just let this go or you know, like
(34:47):
trying to get between these these two you know, kind
of alpha male kind of guys at points. But yeah,
I just thought he was wonderful and then so lovely,
and I found myself rooting for him even more than
any of the rest of them, you.
Speaker 2 (35:01):
Know, throughout the whole thing. So yeah, I'm with you,
that's awesome, clean love it.
Speaker 3 (35:07):
Yeah, he's really great. But let's name some of these
other folks. It's time for the tuccid we got for
this one.
Speaker 5 (35:17):
Okay, So for the Tucci, I almost felt like everyone
in this film could be a lead except Carl the janitor,
and I couldn't just pick him as much as I
like him.
Speaker 4 (35:29):
Too, So I'm going with the statue. The statue is
behind the kids in the library, that big, that ugly
cement thing. It looks like it could be in a beetlejuice. Yes,
you know, it gets it gets hit in the face
or whatever the face like area is with the baloney.
Speaker 5 (35:50):
Or the like, and then Bender ends up straddling it's
it's head. Later on, I think he's going to get stoned.
And it's just always, it's always there and so always
kind of looking over them, And I felt like, if
I really wanted to, you know, if I ever smoked
weed and thought about it, it's.
Speaker 4 (36:10):
This like it's the future for them.
Speaker 5 (36:12):
It's this abstract, a more maybe spooky thing that could
represent like their adulthood, just lurking in the background as
you know, this this thing that they're trying to figure
out and won't it won't ever really.
Speaker 3 (36:27):
Yeah. So it's also kind of the elephant in the room, right,
like of this domineering thing.
Speaker 4 (36:33):
Yeah, and acknowledge necessarily, but always there.
Speaker 2 (36:36):
Yeah, sure, that's really cool. I love it. That's awesome.
Rate pick. I didn't have that one down, you definitely not.
Speaker 4 (36:43):
I didn't see it in the credits. I couldn't. I
couldn't properly give it a name.
Speaker 2 (36:48):
I did see that John Hughes was somebody's dad, Brian. Yeah,
that was kind of fun. I never knew that. Yeah,
so mine's not as fun as apes. I was just
gonna say Judd Nelson. I just always thought he was
the funniest and coolest when I was younger. He kind
(37:10):
of sucks, though, like as I've grown up, just kind
of a bully. He had a crappy home life, kind
of taking it out on everybody else, enjoyed messing with
other people's feelings. Not cool. And one thing that always
bugged me was that Molly Ringwald ended up with him,
(37:30):
and it was just like girls, they never like the
nice guys, and I was always bummed out about that.
They like the cool guys that they can fix, and
that just always wished they were more into Brian.
Speaker 3 (37:47):
I know, I found myself even being like, maybe she
does end up maybe I don't remember. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
that's funny. Well, that's a great one. I'll shout out
Molly Ringwald. I had a huge crush on her when
I was a kid.
Speaker 2 (38:03):
Out Redhead started do you think.
Speaker 3 (38:08):
I think, if we're honest with ourselves, it was April
O'Neil that maybe Jessica Rabbit, but certainly Molly Ringwald is
in the pantheon for sure.
Speaker 2 (38:21):
Or yeah, fun Yeah, there's a lot.
Speaker 3 (38:23):
Of Redheads actually know that. I'm thinking about it. Yeah,
way too many of them are animated, and I don't
want to get into it right now, just kidding, But
I thought Molly Ringwold was was pretty good in this movie.
I thought that like the sushi thing was great, you know,
all the all the stuff. She was really believable and
(38:44):
also believable in that even if she is super popular,
she's still going to be like self conscious and everything.
You know. I think we've we've learned that as we
age about most people at some point or another field
that way to some extent. So also Paul Gleeson, like
he he does such a good job being a dickhead,
(39:05):
but I to actively hate him in this movie.
Speaker 2 (39:08):
He it's one of those whenever he pops up like
he's a pretty good character actor, and whenever he pops
up in something, I can only see him as this character.
Speaker 3 (39:16):
Oh I am the opposite. He will always be Clarence
speaks to me from trading places.
Speaker 2 (39:21):
Yeah, I get that, but I think I.
Speaker 3 (39:23):
Saw that first. So that's probably why.
Speaker 2 (39:26):
I still see him talking about cracking skulls in this
every time. Every time.
Speaker 3 (39:32):
I will never respect an adult either that like it
thinks they're tough by threatening a child, Like it's just
they're seventeen or eight. I understand, right, and like whatever,
but I just think that's such a that's so.
Speaker 2 (39:46):
I make thirty one thousand dollars a year and I
don't know how I own a house. It made me
feel it was kind of like the the Will Ferrell
sketch when he is just kind of yelling and he's
just I drive a odd stratus. Yes, it is kind
of the same thing.
Speaker 3 (40:05):
Oh man. Yeah, I did love that. I was like,
why is that not a gift that I'm sending all
the time?
Speaker 2 (40:14):
Yeah, I love that.
Speaker 3 (40:16):
But yeah, yeah, I mean he did a good job, right,
because he's probably not. I hope he's not that big
a prick in real life. But I just those principles,
you know, give people a little bit of power and
they'll domineer over people, just like the worst.
Speaker 2 (40:29):
Yeah, but yeah, he.
Speaker 3 (40:31):
Did a good job. And the other person, Emilio Astavez,
he was pretty.
Speaker 2 (40:37):
I liked him.
Speaker 3 (40:37):
I like him a lot. I can kind of see
why people thought he was going to be a huge
deal and he was very successful, but I don't think
he ever like lived up to the giant deal status
that he was sort of saddled with. Maybe is what
he would say.
Speaker 2 (40:52):
Now, Yeah, aside from that weed smoking thing that was
so ridiculous.
Speaker 3 (40:58):
Yeah, that was weird, But that's not his fault. I
doubt maybe it is.
Speaker 2 (41:02):
I don't know, but he had some good scenes in
this for sure. That just that kind of role doesn't
do a ton for me, just the character itself. You
didn't do a ton for me, But I thought he
did it well.
Speaker 3 (41:18):
Yeah, I get that. Anybody else have any other runners up?
I guess there's not that many more people.
Speaker 2 (41:24):
Ali Shety, Ali Sheety. She was super weird and she,
like you know, grows on you throughout the throughout the movie.
It always super gross to me. Out that Dan drous
scene always really Yeah, gave.
Speaker 3 (41:38):
Me the they never talked about she mixed this beautiful drawing,
but like it's incredible.
Speaker 2 (41:46):
But that's immediately gross with the dand it was the snow.
Speaker 3 (41:51):
It was It's not my taste in art, but it was.
It was a choice. It was a choice.
Speaker 4 (41:57):
That's I think where I get my crush on Goth
was seeing her.
Speaker 2 (42:01):
Yeah hell yeah, sure.
Speaker 4 (42:03):
Yeah, I like the before, not the after, for sure.
Speaker 2 (42:07):
Right for sure? Yeah? Yeah, nice, that's fun.
Speaker 3 (42:12):
I like that. So she's such a weirdo, Like I
don't know, I still don't know what is true because
what she also lying about, she didn't have detention.
Speaker 2 (42:22):
I don't know. Sure, yeah whos Yeah, that's fun. But
that was kind of everybody I wrote down. It was
kind of fun seeing Emilio's dad. His name is Ron Dean,
and that actor he always plays like a cop from Chicago.
So he's like in The Fugitive, which I always loved,
(42:43):
and anyway, he pops up in that kind of stuff.
Speaker 3 (42:46):
You love the future.
Speaker 2 (42:47):
I do love the Futureive I saw it roughly a
thousand times.
Speaker 3 (42:50):
I don't care. Sorry, I have to say it every time.
I'm obligated. I don't know what you guys want from me.
Speaker 2 (42:57):
Well, why don't we move on. Let's let's go and
pick our favorite scene, and let's choose the dingus. So
it's quite simple, really, Dingus, Dingus.
Speaker 3 (43:07):
I could talk about my dingus all night long. This one.
Speaker 4 (43:12):
I chose the lunch scene when they're all having lunch.
Speaker 2 (43:16):
I did do. That's crazy. There's so many scenes, crazy crazy, So.
Speaker 5 (43:22):
You know, everyone their lunch represents them obviously in that
architect and you know, I got Emilia's got the three sandwiches,
Claire has the sushi, Brian has exactly.
Speaker 4 (43:34):
What you to assume.
Speaker 5 (43:35):
And then but I think what really made that for
me is is Bender because that's when he first kind
of breaks down. You know, he shows the scar from
the cigar and then he kind of runs up up
the stairs and goes into fetal position. But it it's
that vulnerability that kind of cascades to each of the
other characters. But I believe that's the first one that
(43:57):
that breaks, it kind of cracks, and it's being just
that that archetype of you know what, is he the
bad guy at the criminal or whatever, And so I
think that's a real turning point in the movie. But
it's it's also just kind of fun to see what
the next person's going to pull out of.
Speaker 4 (44:12):
Their bag, and you know, yeah, yeah, picksie stick sandwich, which.
Speaker 5 (44:15):
I've never quite tried, but I'm surprised I'm saying that
I haven't.
Speaker 2 (44:19):
Yeah, that is, I would have. I would have. I
can't crunch on a sandwich.
Speaker 3 (44:25):
That's interesting.
Speaker 2 (44:26):
Yeah, man, it just like makes my cheeks hurt thinking
about it. I felt like it would always just hurt
the crap out of my mouth. Oh that's hilarious, because
I mean, there's so many scenes in this, but that
was the one that I picked as well for all
the reasons you said. The next is just the narration
(44:47):
of the letter and the ending fist bump is just
so iconic, wonderful, and if I had to take another one,
I wrote down three more. But I always loved how
Ridiculus us the running around the school montage, like them
seeing the principal and then sliding and run to the place,
(45:10):
and it's all with this like super eighties tune in
the background, And yeah, I always kind of loved that.
Speaker 4 (45:18):
A few times I called Christine from the other room.
Is like you go to see how perfect this is?
Speaker 2 (45:22):
You know it is?
Speaker 3 (45:24):
That is very eighties.
Speaker 2 (45:26):
Oh everything happening there? Yeah, yeah, he pig time.
Speaker 3 (45:31):
I love that.
Speaker 2 (45:32):
I love that. Guys.
Speaker 3 (45:33):
I picked the lunch scene too. That's so funny, So
I guess that's our dingus. It's the I realized on
this rewatch that I'm other than the athletic talent. I'm
the athlete. So that's fun because I also would have
brought the entire grocery bag of food. That was so great.
I love that bit so much. But yeah, I just
(45:53):
I thought the whole scene was super super fun. Like
you said, it gets real and then you know, each
of their meals is so interesting, and I bet in
eighty five like the sushi must have felt, especially like
in the Midwest must have felt like, oh this chick
is rich, you know, like right, and you know, I
don't know that. I don't think I would have known
(46:15):
about that then anyway, but I really really liked that
a lot. And then I loved the well, this is
gonna sound bad now, but it's when Emilia is having
his whole what he tells him I did that Larry
Lester's buns together and all that, which is funny, and
also said the part that really got me that I
(46:37):
had sort of forgot about was Brian being like that
was you? And I felt like I felt like Brian
like that was his buddy, and he was like you
son of a you know, like a little bit like yeah,
I know him, He's my really good friend, and that
you know, like really upper you know whatever it was
gonna be. We never get that, but I felt like
(46:59):
that was you, was what that was saying. And I
just I thought was so great, and I thought Amelia
was wonderful in that scene, and it was you know,
talking about how bad he felt about it, and the
sort of like grander theme, right of like passing on
our you know, like our our trauma to kids or
(47:19):
to other people or whatever, and the way we affect
those around us. I just I really liked that scene
a lot. It's not the most fun scene in the world,
but I think right after that is also when we
hear Brian talk about his stuff, right and then, and
I love that they go out of that by laughing
at him, you know.
Speaker 2 (47:36):
Like that.
Speaker 3 (47:37):
It's just it's it's so relatable because it is serious
and it's sad and terrible, but it is also like
we got it, you know, I don't know I thought
that Levity was really great, So I loved both both
those scenes of Ton Yeah.
Speaker 2 (47:52):
Same, that was another one that I wrote down as well.
Speaker 3 (47:56):
Nice.
Speaker 2 (47:56):
Yeah, and the only the I mean, there's so many
scenes in this, But another way I put down was
just when Bender takes the screw out of the door
and then they kind of all cover for him.
Speaker 3 (48:08):
Yeah, that was fun.
Speaker 2 (48:09):
I did like, Okay, so they're like looking out for
each other. Why are they doing that? Like it's pretty
early on, you know, So yeah, I thought that was
kind of fun.
Speaker 5 (48:19):
Yeah, they just naturally will sort of tribe up when
the grown ups are around. Yeah, right, they will unite
against that no matter how they feel about each other otherwise. Right,
and you know, you can put his head between Claire's
legs and she'll cover for it.
Speaker 3 (48:37):
Because yeah, I didn't like that part. That really was like, yeah,
that's not cool. Man, thought it was the eighties. What
are you? What are you going to do?
Speaker 2 (48:46):
Yeah? For sure, Well cool, the dingus has been chosen.
Unless you guys are talking about any more scenes.
Speaker 5 (48:53):
Little one that that really made me this time, the
basketball scene. It's I love how it's shot and how
it's acted. I also love that, like we're saying Bender
is covering for these people that he ostensibly hates.
Speaker 4 (49:06):
At that point in the movie, but again.
Speaker 5 (49:09):
It's better to keep them safe away from the principal.
But you know, the fake throws of the basketball and
then rolling it town and then getting kicked back, and
the jumping out of his shoe. I mean, there's there's
so much like kind of physical stuff that I really
enjoy about that. How it's a wide shot, almost like
you're just in the corner of the gym watching it.
I think that was a very different little part.
Speaker 4 (49:31):
Of the movie than everything else too.
Speaker 2 (49:34):
I always loved how he said, I'm thinking of trying
out for a scholarsh shit. Yeah. I always loved how he.
Speaker 3 (49:39):
Sam Yeah, yeah, I love that. Yeah, I love that.
I was just gonna say I liked that because we've
seen him act this way towards authority the whole movie
and anyone around him. But knowing that there was like
a deeper meaning because he was covering for them really
was a fun It made me be like, Okay, was
there other point It's where he was doing something like
(50:01):
that that we don't, you know, a deeper meaning.
Speaker 4 (50:04):
He was using his skill set of being a dick
to help out.
Speaker 3 (50:07):
Yeah, yeah, totally, totally. I loved that. I also really
liked the whistling scene. Really cracked me up. It's like
a super dumb but up.
Speaker 2 (50:17):
Yeah, I don't know why. It's the bridge on the river. Kwai.
Speaker 3 (50:22):
Okay, that's what it's. I know, And obviously yeah we can't.
We'll get that through the room. Yeah totally. I just
thought that was fun and very like levity eighties movie stuff,
(50:42):
which I like.
Speaker 2 (50:43):
Nice.
Speaker 3 (50:44):
That was all the ones I had.
Speaker 2 (50:46):
Awesome, Well, let's go and talk about some of these
quotes and let show me the money, show me the money,
show me.
Speaker 3 (50:59):
What he got are quote sabe.
Speaker 5 (51:02):
So I scan through dozens and dozens and there's lots
of great I mean, the whole movie.
Speaker 4 (51:08):
I feel like it's a great quote in some ways.
Speaker 5 (51:10):
But I landed on I landed on Carl h Janitor,
Carl saying to Principal Dick, come on, vern, the kids
haven't changed, you have, you know, And it's that timeless
you know, teenage or whatever, you know, defying yourself. And
now he's frustrated because he's not them anymore, and he
wants them to conform, and they're fighting against them, and
(51:31):
it's something that will happen in every generation, and it's
silly for him to think that he's special essentially.
Speaker 2 (51:38):
Yeah, yeah, dude, love that.
Speaker 3 (51:42):
Uh you've changed. Yeah, that's so great. Do you have
any other ones? Right off the bat?
Speaker 5 (51:48):
The other one that I liked a lot is when
they're talking about their parents and Bender asks Emilio's character
if he gets on his parents and he correctly catches
them to does a trap you the way? If I
say yes and this, I say, yeah, that's right, idiot,
And so Bender says the quote is you're an idiot anyway,
(52:10):
but if you say you get along with your parents,
you're a liar too. And so I think that's, you know,
again reflecting some of those universal.
Speaker 4 (52:17):
Truths in this movie of you know, you're lying if.
Speaker 5 (52:22):
You because you're either fake getting along with them or
you're really not and you're saying you are.
Speaker 2 (52:26):
Yeah right, that's great. Oh yeah, those are deeper than
I was gonna say. Molay really pumps my nads. Yeah really, Yeah.
I love his work. I love how he goes in
this work. You're a neo MAXI zoom dweebee. That's impressive.
Speaker 4 (52:52):
That was improvised too, I found out I saw that too.
Speaker 3 (52:55):
That's crazy.
Speaker 2 (52:57):
Yeah, that's a peak eighties. Like I said, anytime I
see that actor Paul Gleeson, the next time I have
to come in here, I'm cracking skull.
Speaker 3 (53:09):
Yeah, what's his other one? He know is the don't
mess with the bull, young man, You'll get the horns.
Speaker 2 (53:15):
The horns. Yeah, such a good This one made me
laugh this time, and I don't think I even remembered it.
But what do you need a fake ID for? So
I can vote?
Speaker 3 (53:27):
So I can vote?
Speaker 2 (53:30):
I loved that, which I believe.
Speaker 3 (53:31):
Was also improvised.
Speaker 2 (53:32):
I think I saw that in the Tribu, which I love. That.
Does Barry Manilow know that he raided his wardrobe? Was
really great, really good. I felt like some of the
things it was just how they said it, like the
scholars ship and.
Speaker 3 (53:47):
Then the scholarship.
Speaker 2 (53:49):
Hey, how Commandrew gets to get up? If he gets up,
we'll all get up. It'll be anarchy. He does that. Uh,
what if you're home? What if your family? What if
you're dope? Was on fire? Impossible, sir. It's in Johnson's
underwear fats too, when he says that he's just like cool, Yeah,
(54:11):
it's like you really said it? Still, why did you
do that? And then the last one, I'll say it
makes me think of my sister. My sister would always
quote this this whole thing, the son, Yeah dad, how
was your day? Son? Great dad? How's yours? Super? Say?
How would you like to go fishing this weekend? Great dad?
(54:35):
But I got homework to do. That's okay, son, you
can do it on the boat. Gee hone, isn't our
son swell? Yes, dear, isn't life swell? My sister would
do that all the time. So shout out to Jen.
Speaker 3 (54:54):
She picks the weirdest quotes she does.
Speaker 2 (54:57):
I love it. It's great, wonderful. I love that up us.
Speaker 3 (55:04):
I have a bunch of jud ones. He's like, they're
talking about the screw that fell out, and he's like, well,
I don't have it, sir.
Speaker 2 (55:11):
Screws follow out all the time.
Speaker 3 (55:13):
The world is an imperfect place, just like what a
dick in the best way. Also, when he's like can
you hear this? Do you need me to turn it
up as he's flicking them off or whatever, that's pretty good.
I didn't remember that, but I liked it. The two
hits me hitting you, you hitting the floor. I didn't
(55:36):
know that was I don't know was it?
Speaker 2 (55:39):
I think I don't know.
Speaker 3 (55:41):
I've definitely heard that a bunch, but yeah, I don't know.
It made me think. Maybe it did. Also when they
go get the weed from his locker and Brian's just.
Speaker 2 (55:50):
Like drugs, drugs, He's got marijuana.
Speaker 3 (55:53):
That was marijuana, and then he like looks to there
and he's like.
Speaker 2 (55:57):
Do you approve of this? Yeah? He says that to Ali.
Speaker 3 (56:02):
He's just so funny in that scene. It's so so great.
I love it.
Speaker 2 (56:07):
Let's see.
Speaker 3 (56:09):
Are you manically frigid or is it psychological? That was
really fun. And then I did not remember this one,
but you know what you said? It's jud talking to
uh oh, I can't think of her name right now.
Speaker 2 (56:25):
Ringwold, Yes, the Ringworld.
Speaker 3 (56:27):
Yes, uh they're talking and he's like, you know what
you said before about how your parents use you to
get back at each other. Wouldn't I be outstanding in
that capacity?
Speaker 2 (56:39):
Line?
Speaker 3 (56:40):
Yeah, cracked me up. I was like, yeah, there's the
teenage boy, we all know him.
Speaker 2 (56:44):
Love. Was it just me? Or did he seem like
he had flunked a bunch? He seems so much older
than every way older, a little grace. Yes, yeah, like
what I got going on right there? But you know, yeah,
he did not look like a high schooler to me
at all anyway.
Speaker 3 (57:06):
Yeah, one hundred agree with that for sure.
Speaker 2 (57:09):
One more.
Speaker 5 (57:11):
Yeah, Emil, you're saying I've seen her dehydrated.
Speaker 4 (57:14):
It's pretty gross.
Speaker 2 (57:15):
Yeah, it's pretty gross. I have a really little tolerance
for dehydrating. That's good.
Speaker 3 (57:21):
That is great.
Speaker 2 (57:22):
Another one I liked when they have the lunch out.
He's like, well, Brian, this is a very nutritious lunch.
All the food groups are represented. Did your mom marry
mister Rogers? H No, mister Johnson, I did love that one.
Speaker 3 (57:41):
No, mister Johnson.
Speaker 2 (57:44):
Nice. Anybody else want to say any others?
Speaker 4 (57:46):
We covered mine?
Speaker 2 (57:47):
Yeah? I think, well let's go to bugs boohoo. Moments
the crying game. I decided to pick three. I feel
like there could be more, and who knows, maybe there's less,
but I picked three. The first one I said was,
it's kind of when the principal's going after Bender and
(58:10):
he says, you want to see something funny, go visit
John Bender in five years, and then that kind of
leads into him going into the closet area having to
and then like really gets in his face. I felt
like maybe there might have been a tear.
Speaker 3 (58:28):
Yeah, that got me, mostly because I thought he did
a good job acting there he's really afraid he's going
to beat out of him.
Speaker 2 (58:35):
And that was when it was.
Speaker 3 (58:37):
One of the one of the well, it was like
the first time in the movie for sure that we're like, oh,
maybe he is being truthful about you know, his parents
and his dad and whatever like, not that we didn't
believe him before, but it was like, oh maybe you know,
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (58:54):
That really was a light bulb and you can see
it stern emotions in him probably.
Speaker 3 (58:57):
Yeah, yeah, totally totally, and that brashness like goes away,
right and.
Speaker 2 (59:03):
He's scared, yeah, vulnerable.
Speaker 3 (59:05):
Yeah, that got me for sure.
Speaker 2 (59:07):
I thought maybe the Emilio crying about taping that dude's
butt cheeks together, absolutely, which is a funny premise initially
press Yeah.
Speaker 3 (59:18):
But Brian really got me, Like that was you like,
oh sad, well.
Speaker 2 (59:22):
But then when he's like crying about just talking about
how humiliated he must have felt having to tell his
dad about it, Yes, that was really cool. And then yeah,
then the next one the Anthony Michael Hall crying about
needing to be perfect and the reason why he was
in attention. Yeah, yep, yeah, so yeah, and I don't
(59:45):
think you cried it like the kissing from either one
of them. Now, So I'm gonna stick with three, Abe,
Do you think there is any other ones?
Speaker 5 (59:54):
I had three the first two you mentioned, and then
when Emilio was talking to Ali, it's the end like
post pot smoking and she's talking about how the family
he ignores her. But it got me a little bit,
like seeing him not being his father that journey and
him wanting to talk.
Speaker 4 (01:00:12):
He can see she's upset.
Speaker 5 (01:00:14):
He wants to basically not be the jock at that point,
and he's becoming his own person, and you can see
him caring about her, which like the jock is not
supposed to do. And so seeing those walls come down,
come down like that got me a bit, and so
I figured it had to gotten bugs.
Speaker 3 (01:00:30):
It did.
Speaker 2 (01:00:30):
Yeah, smart, smart.
Speaker 3 (01:00:32):
And specifically like uh yeah, just like you said, like
he doesn't necessarily have the tools, but he wants to,
you know, he's got the want to to figure it out.
And I think that's really reliable, relatable.
Speaker 5 (01:00:45):
I wrote down the last three lines of that where
he says she says her parents ignore her.
Speaker 4 (01:00:51):
He says, what do they do to you? They ignore me?
Speaker 5 (01:00:53):
And then he just says a really quiet yeah, like
him too maybe, or like they ignore me the real.
Speaker 3 (01:01:01):
Yep, like they're and they're all just kind of saying
it right, Like they don't see me, they.
Speaker 5 (01:01:06):
Don't write, they're not those separate things.
Speaker 3 (01:01:11):
Yeah, totally.
Speaker 2 (01:01:13):
I love that.
Speaker 3 (01:01:15):
Uh, that was all of them.
Speaker 2 (01:01:17):
Thanks for the assistance, Yeah, nailed it.
Speaker 3 (01:01:20):
Good job boys.
Speaker 2 (01:01:21):
Well, then let's hit some movie trivia then movie trivia.
Speaker 3 (01:01:25):
So there was a ton of this so I only
picked a few, but it's still quite a few. So
if I missed any good ones, let me know. But
the scene in which all the characters sit in a
circle on the floor in the library and tell the
stories about why they're in attention, that wasn't scripted. Writer
and director John Hughes told them all to add lib
(01:01:45):
So that's pretty wild.
Speaker 2 (01:01:48):
That's nuts.
Speaker 3 (01:01:49):
It's like my favorite scene and you know, other than
lunching obviously, but it's such a fun scene. That's cool.
I don't know, I love it.
Speaker 2 (01:01:59):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (01:02:00):
John Hughes said his biggest regret about the film was
using the breaking glass effect during the marijuana scene and
even the beginning of the movie that was weird.
Speaker 4 (01:02:10):
So like the Bowie quote and then the shattering.
Speaker 3 (01:02:13):
Yeah right right, it's just kind of strange, but also
very eighties, So what are you gonna do? Apparently, Judd
Nelson's stating character even off camera, bullying Molly Ringwalald a
lot of the time too, and John Hughes nearly fired
him over it, but Paul Gleeson came to Nelson's defense
(01:02:34):
and said he was a good actor. He was just
trying to get into character. So I don't know. That
kind of sucks.
Speaker 4 (01:02:39):
But she was only fifteen at the time too shooting it.
Speaker 3 (01:02:43):
Wow, whoa, she was fifteen? Yeah, wow, that's crazy. I
still thought she looked older than Brian. Wow, that's crazy.
So yeah, that's interesting. In twenty ten, Molly ring Wald
and Anthony Michael Hall told Vanity Fair magazine that John
(01:03:04):
Hughes was receptive to the actors improvisations, and some of them,
including this so I can vote and the other things
we already talked about, made it into the final film.
So that's just kind of cool. I like that, very
like he's very collaborative, which is super cool because he
didn't need to be. You know, he was on such
(01:03:25):
a heater for so long that like, I don't know
that he would have had to be. But pretty fun.
But oh, Jed Nelson improvised the part at the closing
of the film where he raises his hand in defiance.
So wild because like you said, that's such an iconic
you know, big picture and song and you know it's just.
Speaker 2 (01:03:48):
As big as like the boombox over the head, you
know what I.
Speaker 4 (01:03:51):
Mean, Yes, absolutely, movie poster.
Speaker 2 (01:03:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:03:57):
But yeah, so they they like went through a bunch
of different things and he I think that was the
last one he tried, you know, to just and they
were like, yep, we like it, we love that. So
that was kind of neat. I always think this is
interesting because I sort of always think it's this way,
But this film was shot in sequence, just because I
think it'd be weird to shoot a film out of sequence.
(01:04:18):
But it's cool that they did it. So that's kind
of fun. And I guess if you're going to add
lib you kind of need to just in case it
to fix things down the line. Maybe. John Hughes wrote
the screenplay for this movie in two days. It was
July fourth and fifth of nineteen eighty two, and he
was like, crazy.
Speaker 2 (01:04:37):
Don I'll just have him ad lib that scene. I
don't write it. I'll put him. I'll tell him what
to do, kind of like what the premise is. I
can just go Yeah, nice.
Speaker 3 (01:04:50):
Benders. Flinch when Vernon fakes a punch was genuine. Judd
Nelson really thought he was going to hit him. So
that's intense.
Speaker 2 (01:04:57):
That's a different time. Yeah. Absolutely.
Speaker 3 (01:05:00):
According to Molly Ringwald, Claire was originally scripted as having
pasta salad for lunch, but Ali Sheedy suggested to John
Hughes that she eats sushi, which was considered a luxury
food at the time and maybe still is. I don't
know how those things work.
Speaker 2 (01:05:17):
According also to Molly Ringwald, that's just the same one.
I wrote it twice. Good job by me.
Speaker 3 (01:05:25):
I I love pasta salad. You know this about me.
Judd Nelson went undercover at a local high school outside
of Chicago when they were when they were shooting this film,
he convinced teenagers that he was a legitimate student. He
bought them beer with his quote unquote fake id because
(01:05:46):
he was twenty four at the time apparently, so we
know that. So that's not great. And then later had
them drop him off at a hotel where he was
staying and years later he would reminisce on this and
be like, Yeah, I just told them my dad was
in jail and that's why I was at the West
and O'Hair, Well, my dad was incarcerated.
Speaker 2 (01:06:07):
Weird.
Speaker 3 (01:06:08):
That's a real weird story.
Speaker 4 (01:06:10):
They were pretty drunk, so they believed them.
Speaker 3 (01:06:13):
Yeah, these kids, I bought booze for interesting.
Speaker 2 (01:06:18):
Ah, so that's something.
Speaker 3 (01:06:20):
Anthony Michael Hall's actual mother and younger sister were the
two people that were playing them in the beginning of
the film, so that's fun. Those are actual family members,
which is neat. I thought this was great. The clothes
that Jed Nelson is wearing are the ones that he
(01:06:40):
auditioned for the role with, so that's just his outfit.
I guess that's cool, kind of weird and fun.
Speaker 2 (01:06:47):
I like that.
Speaker 3 (01:06:49):
And in the beginning of the movie, there's different shots
of the school hallways and classrooms that are shown and
you can see like the flare gun, the locker that's
like burnt out from the Lairer gun and all that.
That's in there, but there's also a picture of a
former Schrmer High School student Man of the Year, and
the man in that picture is Carl Reid, who the
(01:07:11):
janitor Carl, which I thought was kind of interesting. I
didn't catch that obviously, but it was oh no, no,
I didn't. I guess I was maybe not paying attention
yet or something.
Speaker 2 (01:07:19):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (01:07:20):
Yeah, but yeah, I didn't I catch it.
Speaker 2 (01:07:22):
I was like, oh, that guy looks really familiar. And
then when he came in that wow, yeah, that's why.
Speaker 3 (01:07:28):
Yeah. And then I'll just say my last one that
I have is a lot of people thought that his
dad was the janitor. Brian's dad was the janitor at
first when they saw this, and then they were like,
why does he have this relationship with him? And I
read some trivia that I think maybe even Hughes said it,
but it was because Brian would often spend time alone
(01:07:50):
in the library studying, and so he just got to
know the janitor and they were pals. I thought that
was kind of cool, cool because even says goodbye to
him as their.
Speaker 2 (01:07:59):
Lead, right, you know.
Speaker 3 (01:08:01):
I just thought that was neat.
Speaker 2 (01:08:02):
That was neat.
Speaker 3 (01:08:03):
That was all the trivia I had did you have
some pal?
Speaker 2 (01:08:06):
I did? John Hughes said getting the film greenlit by
Universal wasn't easy because the executives complained there were no
bare breasts, no party scene, no guys drinking beer or
other things they thought a teenage picture needed at that time. Wow,
which I just thought different experiences right, true? I just
(01:08:31):
thought that was an interesting sentence to read. Yeah, for sure.
John Cusack auditioned several times for Bender, even traveling between
Chicago and LA before being cast. However, John Hughes went
in a different direction, dropped Cusack in favor of Judd Nelson,
which was heavily influenced by the casting director. Wild Yeah,
(01:08:57):
done it right, Oh, he could have totally nice. Kisag
was awesome.
Speaker 3 (01:09:01):
He's great.
Speaker 2 (01:09:02):
Yeah. And the theme song Don't You Forget About Me
was written for the film by Keith Forcey. It was
a number one hit for Simple Minds, but pretty cool.
It was made for the movie's wild Yeah yeah, Abe.
Did you have any other things? Trivia?
Speaker 4 (01:09:21):
Wise?
Speaker 5 (01:09:21):
I do have one more that I wrote down in
addition to the improvised stuff that Bukes talked about. John
Singleton reviewed it for his high school paper in LA
and said it really made an impact on him and
quote gave him the template.
Speaker 4 (01:09:36):
For boys in the hood. Wow, that was that jumped.
Speaker 2 (01:09:40):
Out of me.
Speaker 5 (01:09:41):
It was something I had really assumed. And he even
made the comment, He's like, I didn't care they're all
white kids. It was like there was some some real
things there that I really liked about.
Speaker 4 (01:09:48):
You know, that kind of things.
Speaker 5 (01:09:51):
Yeah, and then I don't know how common knowledge it was,
but also just kind of clicking into John Hughes's Wikipedia page,
I didn't realize that he had written National Lampoon's Vacation
is like one of his first industry things, And so that.
Speaker 4 (01:10:06):
Kind of got him on the Hollywood radar.
Speaker 5 (01:10:09):
And there was some like two pitcher deal where he
was going to make Pretty in Pink and Breakfast Club,
but he had to make Pretty and Pink first because
that was like the easier sell, and then then this
one was already ready to go, but it had to
be second.
Speaker 3 (01:10:23):
Okay, cool, cool, nice, that's grace, very cool.
Speaker 2 (01:10:29):
Yeah, Oh go ahead, did you have one more?
Speaker 1 (01:10:31):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (01:10:32):
And just just also jumped out that he was still
in his thirties.
Speaker 5 (01:10:34):
He was born in nineteen fifty, so he didn't turn
forty until nineteen ninety Joyes so kind of impressively young
for such a big eighties career.
Speaker 2 (01:10:44):
Yes, dude, wild he was putting out so much stuff.
He was writing so much that like other people would
have to direct just so he could like keep getting
everything out. Yeah, it was nuts. Yeah, that's that's impressive.
It was super impressive. That's nice. Well, Judgment Day. Will
there be a sequel? Yeah, there was trivia about this.
(01:11:08):
Did you see the trivia about a rep? I did?
Speaker 3 (01:11:10):
Yeah, Okay, I wrote it.
Speaker 2 (01:11:12):
The Last Club.
Speaker 3 (01:11:14):
Yeah. The Originally it was suggested that there was gonna
be several sequels to this movie occurring every ten years,
where they would get back together.
Speaker 2 (01:11:23):
And it didn't.
Speaker 3 (01:11:23):
It didn't happen because apparently John Hughes and John Nelson
didn't get along super well. It was pretty volatile their relationship.
And then I think also Molly Ringwald and him also
didn't get along super well.
Speaker 2 (01:11:39):
Well, John Hughes isn't around anymore. All those actors are
star around, Like, they could absolutely do a little Brunch
Club parents. That'd be great, it'd be interesting. I'd be
interested in seeing that. But yeah, I feel like all
of them are still acting, all of them.
Speaker 3 (01:11:58):
Yeah, that's a good point.
Speaker 2 (01:11:59):
Yeah, while like, I haven't seen jud Nelson in like
a real thing in a very long time. But but
he's around he Oh dude, he's working all the time.
I just don't see any of the things he does
or he'll do like an episode on some network show
or whatever. Totally, but I'd be in. I'd watch it.
I'm surprised they didn't like get together during the pandemic
(01:12:21):
like so many other things. Did you know? Yeah, that's
that would have been a good opportunity.
Speaker 3 (01:12:27):
But I just had something pump in my head. Was
was it Judd Nelson who was the like in Airheads?
The I saw that guy.
Speaker 2 (01:12:39):
He wasn't the record guy, but he was something else. Well,
the main record guy was Joe Montaigna.
Speaker 3 (01:12:47):
Yeah, Jimmy Wing, the guy who was like signs them
to their deal. This is just clicking for me. I
didn't realize that was even him. That's crazy.
Speaker 2 (01:12:55):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (01:12:56):
Anyway, Sorry, do.
Speaker 2 (01:12:58):

my five favorite actors from a film. When you know
