test of time and shaped our cultural landscape. So grab
your favorite beverage or the one we've created for this episode,
and let's dive into the nostalgia as we explore movies
that are finally old enough to join us for a drink.
This month is a special one for myself. We're getting
ready to go back to school. Everybody could use some learning.
We've established that some of us don't know math all
(01:17):
that well, but I do need those people to stumble
out of a bar with. After we've talked about a
long Night of films and those two men. First and
foremost is mister Brandon Vick, who is the resident film
critic of the Sobros Network. He's also a member of
the Southeastern Film Critics Association, a board member of the

gave birth to the vix Flicks and Cinema Chronicles podcast

Network and also wherever you get your podcasts from. And
he is joined as well by the man who is
the legend that created the Sobros Network, the Ei see

all things college football, the Titans, all those good things.
Mister Stony keey.

to be here. It's fucking hot and humid outside, but
balls are sweaty. That is uh. We're getting near. There's
light at the end of the tunnel. Only a few
more weeks till September. It's back to school. Thematically, the
movie we're talking about today fits the bill, and I
(02:40):
love when that happens when the season's aligned.

Speaker 2 (03:38):
Yeah, he's going to be he's going to be the
most popular. Yeah, nobody's going to fuck with him.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
I can honestly say we are talking about a film
that I know. There have been multiple uh studies on
this film, podcast on this film, But you're not going
to find more three more people justified to to talk
about this film than the three of us here because
this film was made for people like us. Yeah yeah,
(04:06):
I say sarcastically, because we're talking about.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Mean girls and we are mean girls.
Speaker 4 (04:10):
Yes, yeah, we are. Listen, this came out when we
when Stonie and I graduated high school.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
It did?
Speaker 3 (04:16):
It came out way past I graduated high school.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
I just mean when I first saw.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
It, I've seen this movie a million times same.
Speaker 4 (04:22):
I have to off and on, Yes, go ahead.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
It is one of those films where I know all
of us have a film or films like this where
you're flipping through the channels, you see it, you stop. Yeah,
I don't know if that's for you guys, this is
one of those films for me.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
Well, I metaphorically speaking, yes, it was one like back
in the day, I had the DVD and like if
I couldn't figure out what to watch, I'd just be like,
I'm gonna throw on Mean Girls again while I cleaned
my room. As all teenage boys get right, watch and
clean the house. Not me.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Think both of those statements are false when it comes
to teenage boys.
Speaker 4 (04:59):
Yeah, I put on amistad.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
Yeah okay, yeah, Well, in case you've been living under
a rock for the past twenty twenty one years, Mean
Girls is about new stated, new student Katie Herron enters
her new high school and quickly learns about the social
hair fuck hierarchy, hierarchy at the school. I knew I
shouldn't have put that word. That's why they make the tharsis.
(05:22):
Katie befriends to click the plastics at the beheast of
her outsider friends Janice and Damien in hopes of taking
down the Queen Bee Regina George. As Katie continues on
her mission, she slowly is overtaken by the drug that
is popularity and becomes the person she set out to mock.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
You wrote that, didn't you fuck sadly?
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (05:41):
Can tell I put in any business putting in. I
can't do math, you can't read not. The third episode
no Mean Girls was directed by Mark Waters, who did
the Freddie Prince Junior classic Head over heels, creaking Oh,
that old classic, uh Freaky Friday.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
All right, now I'm with.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
You, and the follow up of Freddie Prince Classic Junior.
He's all that.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
You should have started with.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Whatever you don't even remember. It's already no second one.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Freaky Friday.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
Yes, should have started with that one.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
That was awful.
Speaker 3 (06:25):
It's based on the book Queen Bees and Wanna Bees
that was written by Rosalind Wiseman and the script was
written by SNL legend alum Tina Fey. Yes, yes, uh,
you are correct. Correct, the facts don't lie.
Speaker 4 (06:42):
A classic head over here.
Speaker 3 (06:43):
Look, I'm ready for a drink. You guys ready for
a drink. It's August, it's hot outside. I've got one
for you. We want to cool down? And who does
love to cool down with a mom? A cool mom?
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Excuse me? Whoa?
Speaker 3 (06:55):
You didn't listen to Stacy's mom growing up?
Speaker 4 (06:57):
Yes, we did.
Speaker 3 (06:59):
Uh, this is the cool mom Margarita. You take an
ounce and a half with tequila, four ounces of cranberry,
three quarter ounces of OJ, a quarter ounce of simple syrup,
and a half ounce of lime juice. You're gonna have
a sugar rim some in a lime wedge. What you're
gonna do is you're gonna wet the rim of a
double ross glass with the lime wedge. Sprinkle some sugar
(07:19):
on a saucer or a flat other flat dish and
gently dip the glass rim in it. Add ice and
set aside, and a shaker fill it with ice combined
all the liquid ingredients. Shake well for like ten to
fifteen seconds, and then strain into your rocks glass in
garnish with a lime wedge and cheers. There's your cool mom, margarita.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Love a little orange juice and a margarita. That does
sound nice, very good.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
I mean you normally put like Grandmonier or something which
is in the French orange course. So it makes total sense,
makes total sense. What made total sense was the casting
of this film. Didn't know it at the time.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Yeah, it is one of those interesting moment in time
kind of castings.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
I did. I should have thought of it, but I
did not doing research. I should have looked up who
casted this film or what you know. Management group was
in charge of it, but I thought they knocked it
out of the park. Here you had Lindsay low And
as Katie obviously we know her from Freaky Friday, The
Parent Trap, Rachel Adams as Regina George the Queen Bee
herself from The Vow and wedding crashers my.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Two fate what Rachel Micadams?
Speaker 3 (08:19):
I just said Adams didn't. I don't forget that fucking auto.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Who's Rachel Adams.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
I'll be honest. I didn't want to say that because
I thought maybe you did say it.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
No Adams was written. I just I'm like anchor man
you put in front of me.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
I'm just.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
Lacy Shavert as Gretchen wieners Uh from A Not Not
Another teen movie and Party of Five.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Was what I mean.
Speaker 4 (08:43):
And I think every whole movie.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
I was jokingly gonna write that.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
Yes, she found her lane.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Amanda Sea Freed. I always want to butcher her name.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
I still don't know how to you could have said.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
He would have just nodded and was carrying. Karen Smith,
known best from Dear John and the Mama Mea Movies.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
Oh that's right, yeah yeah.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
And then Lizzie Kaplan as Janis Ian.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
I loved her, and Cobweb and.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Cloverfield I love her and everything.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
Yeah. And then I don't know if I'm going to
pronounce his name right, but Daniel Frenzies he played Damien
who was too gay to function. Yeah, he doesn't have
a lot of credits. He had some small small parts
and Party Monster and War the Worlds.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
It's kind of crazy because I think he was one
of the standouts in this film too, and it would
think like there's some comedic chops there. But yeah, I
never really went on to do anything.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
But that's not where the casting just los. He was
like a janitor or something in Party Monster, I think
is what it was. Yeah, I don't remember, but that's
not where the casting ends. You had, you know, it
featured some some heavy hitters and Tina Fey, Amy poul
and a gas Star and ten Meadows and another non
(10:04):
SNL alum Neil Flint who's best known as the Janitor
and Scrubs.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Oh oh yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 4 (10:12):
But what about the the boy that everybody.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Likes, Jonathan Bennett Aarons.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
What else has he done?
Speaker 4 (10:19):
I'll tell you what he's done. He does those baking
shows on Food Network.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
About that. Good for him. I'm pretty sure that's it
looks like he's done some He's done some Christmas movies.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
Done that, and I think he done it maybe a
knock or like a Van.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Wilder, like you know, Freshman Year. Yeah, he was in
Cheaper by the Dozen two as well.
Speaker 4 (10:39):
But isn't he in Like I think it's a Halloween
one in the Food Network under TV.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
Is it Halloween Wars? Yes, Halloween Wars. Yes, I knew it.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
That's him.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Yeah, as soon as I saw him.
Speaker 4 (10:50):
Rachel mccawams all them, Hell no, there's that dude from
Halloween Wars. And I think he Isn't he gay in
real life?
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Are you?
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Like? I have no idea?
Speaker 4 (11:01):
Can I tell you something?
Speaker 2 (11:02):
So much?
Speaker 4 (11:03):
When I started watching because my wife and I watched
like Halloween Bacon Championship, Halloween Wares. When he came out,
that's the only thing I ever knew him in was
from Mean Girls. And I'm like, I'm pretty sure that's him.
She's like, I don't think it is. When we rewatched
Mean Girls, I'm like, that's him, Like he's the same dude.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
On November thirtieth, twenty twenty, representatives for Bennett confirmed he
was engaged to Amazing Race contestant and current Celebrity Page
host James Vaughan.
Speaker 4 (11:30):
Oh, well, there you go.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
That is a man.
Speaker 4 (11:33):
That is a man.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
It was around twenty fourteen. I believe that the actor
Daniel who played Damien came out of the closet.
Speaker 4 (11:41):
Oh, he didn't come out in two thousand and four.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
No, it was years later.
Speaker 4 (11:47):
People just thought I was acting.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
I see. He was great.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
He was he was funny. I liked him, and I
really appreciated Tim Meadows in this movie.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
I did too.
Speaker 4 (11:56):
I love some of his lines.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
And we'll get to this later in the show. He
isn't supposed to be there.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
How about that they are? I felt like his his lines,
you know, obviously the roles a little smaller than elsewhere
in the film, but he was the most well timed
comedic punch in the entire film.
Speaker 4 (12:15):
Oh yeah, especially when he's in that when he's in
the gym, Yeah, and he wants Tina Fai talk to.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
I mean, he was so good. He came back for
the musical. But it helps when you have the history
you have on a show like sn L to have
those kind of you know, improvised comedic chops. And also
you got somebody like Tina Fey writing for you.
Speaker 4 (12:40):
Yeah, oh yeah, no. And I totally forgot Amy Poehler
was even in it.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
Not me.
Speaker 4 (12:46):
I remember when my first sure, I'm like, oh yeah,
I associate her and Tina fey with everything. But I
always forget.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
About the they are. I forget Busy Phillips plays her
role in the musical. Oh yeah, and it wasn't the same.
Speaker 4 (13:02):
To me, it's not the same. I like Busy Philospace.
It wasn't the same.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
No.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
Uh, well, you know we love talking about money on
this move on this show and this this this one
made some money. But how much did it cost to
make mean girls?
Speaker 2 (13:18):
I can't imagine too much?
Speaker 3 (13:21):
Oh the cgi, Yeah, I mean it costs a lot
to have that. I mean really, I don't think anybody
that's true. I mean, none of the girls are famous yet.
Lindsay Lohand has had some It.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
Felt a name. I was about to say it felt
like Pete Lindsay Lohand, like oh yeah, this was this.
Speaker 4 (13:37):
Was especially after this Freaky Friday.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
Right, So yeah, you know what I'm going to say.
I'm gonna say twenty six million.
Speaker 4 (13:46):
I think it's higher than that for some reason.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
I'm going to say forty four, forty four and twenty six. Now,
if you subtract twenty six from forty four, you can
get close to the budgets. Okay, so don't tell me
it's not eighteen it's seventeen million.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Him, I'm surprised I did not.
Speaker 4 (14:02):
I did not. I thought it was less than fifty.
I would not think it was under twenty.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
Wow. I should have looked up with the musical.
Speaker 4 (14:09):
But then I guess if you think about where you
look at it, where no one knows what Ming Girls is.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
Only the book isn't a narrative. The book is like
a self help kind of to do type book.
Speaker 4 (14:23):
Oh, I never I never knew that.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
The musical. The budget for the musical was thirty six millions.
All I was talking about it. It had a run
one hundred and five million at the box office.
Speaker 4 (14:38):
And they marketed as if it wasn't a musical.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Yeah, which you saw it people.
Speaker 3 (14:42):
A lot of people were pissed about that, but they
thought it was just like a reboot or remake.
Speaker 4 (14:46):
Yeah, I love it.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
I loved it. I love being people getting I mean,
I saw you.
Speaker 4 (14:51):
Not knowing it. It wasn't a great movie.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
But.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
I can't disagree. The theatrical stage production of the musical
is way better than that I would I would have
and I think they could have done better casting in
some of the roles.
Speaker 4 (15:06):
I liked Regina though I don't know, because.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
She played Regina on Broadway and right before the lockdown
in COVID happened, Sabrina Carpenter was playing Katie Broadway. She
only got to do like a handful of performances before
the lockdown happened. I think she would have been perfect
to take on the role in the film, especially you
see the Sabrina Carpenter that we have today and the
(15:31):
mega star that come over the years.
Speaker 4 (15:33):
Wow, no one else makes Does anyone else make an
appearance in the movie besides Zil from.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
The original Tim Meadows? Does the girls Tina Bays in it?
She plays her role again. The mom is different, Katie's
mom is different. Regina's mom is different.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
Katie's mom is Jenni Fisher.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
Jenni Fisher Yeah, Pam Yeah.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
I mean like a man deciphers to show up in it.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
John Ham plays I.
Speaker 4 (16:03):
Loved him in that musical one as a gym teacher.
Also taught sex, wasn't it? Sex education is one of
those things? Okay? I just remember Lindsay Lowhan making appearance.
I don't know if they go man decided. I know Rachel.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
Mcaddans I think are the only three of that.
Speaker 4 (16:17):
Return don't even ask Rachel McAdams to do it. She
is high class.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Ay, amen to that.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
Uh so he established the budget. Yep, let's talk box.
Speaker 4 (16:27):
Office billion dollars.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
This was one of four films to debut that weekend.
You had Mean Girls, Laws of Attraction, God sinn.
Speaker 4 (16:36):
I'm not familiar with de Niro and Dakota Fanning.
Speaker 3 (16:39):
Okay and Envy.
Speaker 4 (16:41):
Well, I know.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
That's the Jack Black poop movie, isn't it?
Speaker 2 (16:45):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (16:47):
Did you hear him talk about it on Amy Poehlers.
They're in it together.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
Yeah, it was funny. So your top five God sent
at five, Laws of Attraction at four thirteen, going on
thirty Man of Fire it too. So that means either
Passion of the Christ or Mean Girls is number one.
Speaker 4 (17:05):
Girl.
Speaker 3 (17:05):
It has to mean Girls was number one. Yeah. US
Canada opening weekend box office. What do we think in
this brought.
Speaker 4 (17:14):
In twenty eight million.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
I'm gonna say thirty six, twenty eight and thirty six.
I will tell you this film made its budget back
the first week at twenty four zero point four million dollars. Nice.
I remember this being a big hit. I don't remember
the build up to it. We're it would have done
numbers like that.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
I remember being excited about it when we were in school,
thinking like, oh, this is gonna be a banger. Like
you know, we're teenagers, so it's like, oh, Lindsey Lehan's hot,
and then it's gonna be funny. They got some people
from Saturday Night Lives. That's a funny show. We're gonna
you need to calm down.
Speaker 3 (17:48):
And everybody was still shitting on in two thousand and fourth.
SNL is not funny anymore.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
Except for the kids. Us kids were like, this is
so cool. We've just discovered it. Have you guys heard
of this Saturday Night Live show? It's so funny.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
And that's fair because usually it's your your high school
years where you really, yeah, establish a love for S
and L because and that becomes your cast. You think
that cast is the best cast.
Speaker 4 (18:13):
Well every I think every like cycle, they're like they're
the edgy Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
But I remember us being really excited about this movie
and it being I think because we were in high school,
so it's like, oh, this is about us. I don't
know why I'm talking like this. I don't know why,
Oh this is about us. It's Saturday Night Live. But yeah,
I remember being like really excited. I remember people talking
about it at school.
Speaker 4 (18:39):
And don't get us wrong, we were excited about Envy two.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
We were about in there.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
Don't yeah, I can't say I was excited about him.
Speaker 4 (18:48):
Still remember that Christopher walkin scene.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
Don't get on me about these fus.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
We still have a few months ago. We could work
Envy in if we need.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
I would love to.
Speaker 4 (18:56):
As a matter of fact, maybe for Halloween.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
We need some help in Halloween this year.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
So what do we think?
Speaker 3 (19:03):
Oh, we already did. Domestic total, it brought in a
little over eighty six million dollars, but worldwide all combined
a little over one hundred and thirty million dollars off.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
Of seventeen thirteen million.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
That's a hit, and that is a hit.
Speaker 3 (19:16):
Granted, there is a sequel Mean Girls too, but it
went straight.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
To DVD with no one else in it.
Speaker 3 (19:23):
I never saw it. I had no desire to. But
my question is, like, how do you get to one
hundred and thirty million on seventeen and not get like
a bona fide attempt at a sequel?
Speaker 4 (19:35):
I mean, the only thing I can think of is
maybe either the cast was moving on or Tina Faye
didn't want to do it. I mean, clearly they couldn't
have the people that were behind this one.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
When was Lindsay Lowen's crash out? Was it not too
long after this?
Speaker 4 (19:51):
No? It was? I mean well, I mean it was
a few years because I think she did the Herbie
movie with Michael Keaton.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
Yeah, did she's thirty eight years old.
Speaker 4 (20:00):
No, I think she did one. But but there's one
where she played I can tell you if you tell
me a movie.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
It was like within two thousand and six, thousand and seven,
because it was awful, and that was the last movie
she ever really did in theaters, and then it was.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
A I'm trying to I'm trying to.
Speaker 4 (20:15):
Okay, it's a question. The movie title is a question.
I think.
Speaker 3 (20:19):
So five was Herbie?
Speaker 4 (20:21):
Okay, so that's still Disney. Yep.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
She did a Prairie Home companion.
Speaker 4 (20:26):
Tell you what else was fully loaded?
Speaker 2 (20:28):
Do you gotta settle down?
Speaker 4 (20:29):
You get bomb a prairie Yep?
Speaker 3 (20:32):
Two thousand and six, she's in the Holiday.
Speaker 4 (20:35):
Oh, because they watched they watched the Trap.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
I know who killed me?
Speaker 4 (20:39):
That's it.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
That was not a question though, Nope, it's not.
Speaker 4 (20:43):
But it's an awful movie, and that was that's when
her downfall started.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
And then you have labor pains.
Speaker 4 (20:49):
She was in mache she was, but she has already
done her drug stuff and everything.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
So yeah, because a lot of it. She's doing episodes
of Glee music.
Speaker 2 (20:59):
Vide it's like cameos.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
Yeah, scary movie five she plays herself, Oh the Canyons
where she plays Linda Lovelace, the porn star.
Speaker 4 (21:10):
Again. Basically Herbie fully Loaded was the last.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
Thing that was. Yeah, so that's why we didn't get
the true sequel to Mean Girls.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
Well maybe not only that, but you know, I don't
think Rachel mcaddam, like, I mean, Rachel McAdams still, I
don't think is like there was the thing that.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
There was a notebook came out in two thousand and
four as well.
Speaker 4 (21:27):
Yeah, but I mean like they were going to do
this Walmart commercial and they did it, but Rachel McAdams
didn't do it. Then they but then Rachel like she
had like they thought she was too good. She was like, no,
it wasn't that, it was something else. But parts of
me thinks, I'm sorry, but her career is just on
a different level than others. Amanda Seifert's I like I
(21:49):
like her, Yeah, and she even got an Oscar on
him here recently. So, but until then, Rachel McAdams I
think is probably the most successful of all of them,
of the core. Yeah, and I'm talking about so if
you're gonna make one. But I also wonder, like this
Tina face paying well. I mean, I'm not saying that
she might be the richest of them all, but I
(22:10):
just kind of see where if you don't have that
same writing team, and especially if Tina Fey kind of
doesn't want to do it, then it's probably going to
look less and less attractive for any of them to
come back. In all fairness, though Lacy probably would come back.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
But you have the UK. They brought in ten million
of the one hundred and thirty chains.
Speaker 4 (22:29):
I only care about one place.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
In Australia a little over six million.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
That's good, that's good.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
But our friends in Argentina seven thousand, fifteen dollars. Oh,
come on, And sadly Bulgaria was not blessed with this masterpiece.
Oh they didn't get it.
Speaker 4 (22:46):
Oh my god, did they not look at the data
that would have done forty five hundred dollars at least? God,
shame on them.
Speaker 3 (22:57):
Well, let's see if Bulgaria not getting this film resonates
in the Rotten Tomato score. Okay, well probably will so
for the reviews, the for the critics, the tomato meter,
you had two hundred and twenty reviews. Where does mean
girls Land.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
I'm going to say, I'm going to say seventy eight.
I'm going to say sixty five.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
You're closer, Brandon. Finally, eighty four percent, I think eight.
Speaker 4 (23:32):
I thought it might be in the seventies. Actually, so
last month I guessed it.
Speaker 3 (23:36):
Last month we did Eternal Sunshine. That was ninety four
percent for the critics, ninety two, ninety two or maybe
it's a vice for anyways. In the ninth yeah, both
well received the Tomato meter eighty four percent. Here pretty
good popcorn meter two hundred and fifty thousand plus reviews
on Rotten Tomatoes. What did the mass one hundred? Think
(23:57):
it is one hundred?
Speaker 4 (23:58):
Because people.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
Hundred, you're really one hundred?
Speaker 4 (24:04):
Nah, I don't know, I mean I think it'd be well,
I don't know. That was eighty eighty four. I keep
going higher. I'm gonna say seventy eight, seventy eight.
Speaker 3 (24:15):
You're closest again, Yes, sixty six WHOA, I.
Speaker 4 (24:19):
Think over time and I'm one of them. I don't
like the movie. I don't like the movie as much
as I did when I first sat.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
I don't. I don't feel the same. I don't feel
the same way watching it now as I did when
we were younger.
Speaker 4 (24:35):
Yeah, and again, I can't say that's the movie's fault,
but I could see where if someone told me about
this movie and ten years ago I watched it, yeah,
I probably wouldn't even feel the same.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
Like it feels more like a personal comfort movie to
me than it is like an actual good movie, that
is that has stood the test of time, because.
Speaker 4 (24:57):
It's into those those Christmas movies that they're not not
really that great, but you watch them because you throw
it once.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
In a while, like Elf, like Elf, Yeah, hocus.
Speaker 4 (25:05):
Pocus, Deck the Halls, Christmas with the Cranks.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
I disagree. I love this movie still to this day.
It still holds up to me. I watch it probably
at least once or twice a year, can I I
I know that doesn't shock anybody.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
In this room.
Speaker 4 (25:19):
Absolutely not. I just called some Freddie prince Hill movie
a classic. So but I come, I I don't think
it's it's so weird to hear retard in a movie. Now,
I agree it is, And I mean I'm not knocking
it because obviously that was that was not a big
deal whatsoever back then. But it's but it's like anything else,
(25:43):
it's so weird to hear it now.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
But I think it's even weirder here coming out of
supposedly teenage girl's mouse when normally being thrown around and
on TV and in the movies, it's usually coming from guys.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
Yeah, yeah, it is.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
Yeah, but I'll keep going, I'll tell you more. No, No,
I just well, I guess the thing is is like
I don't really there's parts that like it just hasn't
aged well or like there's really not much to the movie.
It's actually quite cliched, even stuff before two thousand and four.
(26:25):
I guess when you kind of look at it now,
it really is just like almost an hour and a
half of just like girls being dickheads.
Speaker 3 (26:40):
But like hence the title.
Speaker 4 (26:41):
Well I know, but I just mean, like, like, how
can I well, how can I say.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
It like dick girls come to the Like.
Speaker 4 (26:50):
I guess it's like so much against like and I
and I know that that's how high school is, but like,
I don't know, I guess I wish the approach was
different because it does kind of seem there are times
where it kind of seems like a low hanging fruit
on some of the things that they do to try
and get it across of just how clicky things are
or just how mean these girls are. But then there's
(27:13):
also where I do like the main performances. I think
there is. I think the humor is still pretty good.
Like I said, till Meadows was actually funnier than I remembered,
but I just wasn't.
Speaker 3 (27:25):
It's missing. It was missing Penis for Brandon because he
keeps going back to tim Meadows. I do well, you
know well, and then my guys, guys, my guy from
Food Network, who's gay you, mister Chance.
Speaker 4 (27:40):
It just wasn't. I don't know. I just wasn't as
entertained as as I as I was before. And I
think there's a lot of stuff within the within the story,
in the script that actually doesn't it's it's I don't know,
it's not as clever or as uh, I want to say, trendy,
but that's not really what I'm talking about. But I
(28:01):
don't know. It just doesn't really seem to kind of
capture what I thought he had captured as far as
just girls and in high school and stuff. And then
I didn't realize how much of the stuff that actually
it had been done before, even even specifically within high
school movies, but much less like the arc of you know,
you'll go in here and you'll do this, and oh
(28:22):
you're gonna spy. Oh you end up becoming a plastic
and I don't know, I just wasn't as entertained. I
don't know. You probably it's it's a feeling you felt.
Speaker 3 (28:31):
In Hillboy, my feeling.
Speaker 4 (28:35):
No, I don't hate the movie. I actually just I
don't know. It didn't come.
Speaker 3 (28:39):
It just didn't.
Speaker 4 (28:41):
It didn't feel the same. I would watch Super Bad
way more than this.
Speaker 3 (28:46):
Vagina.
Speaker 4 (28:47):
But it's really funny, it's not dated. It still holds up.
I think it's I think it's I like with Tina Fey,
where has written. I just don't think it was executed
as well as I remembered. And I think some stuff
kind of falls flat that I don't that I know
I thought was funny twenty one years ago.
Speaker 3 (29:06):
I can't wait to read your Letterbox review of it.
Speaker 4 (29:09):
I don't do.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
I think you just gave you all of them. Yeah,
but I do have some letter this from my mind.
Speaker 4 (29:14):
Yeah, yeah, sucks it, licking pussy nobody.
Speaker 3 (29:19):
If you didn't listen to the last month episode, you
have no idea what He's just a fucking moment.
Speaker 4 (29:25):
Do these because it makes people go back and listen
to others, because it is this whole cinematic universematic.
Speaker 3 (29:34):
Contivers I don't know if the numbers of the podcast
reflect that statement.
Speaker 4 (29:39):
Listen, I didn't say word's working. Just why I do it?
Speaker 3 (29:42):
Here we go.
Speaker 4 (29:46):
I do imagine someone only listening to this podcast? What
what did he What did he say?
Speaker 3 (29:54):
Transpotting of podcasts that have to do is demento gave
a Mean Girls four stars on Letterbox and just spitting
out facts here. Rachel McAdams could have done Fight Club,
but Brad Pitt couldn't have done Mean Girls.
Speaker 4 (30:11):
Oh well, I think that's just physically true.
Speaker 3 (30:19):
I mean, if you watch would think otherwise.
Speaker 4 (30:23):
Am I only replacing Brad Pitt? So Rachel McAdams and
like Edward Norton, everything else is the same. Okay, well,
he's an idiot.
Speaker 3 (30:32):
We don't know if Othavio is a here or not.
Speaker 4 (30:34):
Well, Octavius is an idiot?
Speaker 2 (30:37):
Is it Octavius or Octavia?
Speaker 4 (30:39):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
Well, who's not an idiot? Is Mary?
Speaker 4 (30:42):
Mary gave me the cider of that.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
Mary gave Mean Girls five stars and simply says, this
is my citizen Kane.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
I could see that, you know, Mary, you.
Speaker 4 (30:57):
Can see that. That doesn't surprise me.
Speaker 3 (31:00):
The Greek geek gave it five stars. That's a good name,
the Greek geek. Anybody who dislikes this movie is a
fugly slut.
Speaker 2 (31:08):
Well, so here I am fugly slut that.
Speaker 3 (31:14):
I still love that phrase.
Speaker 2 (31:15):
I do too. I still I still use that from
time to time.
Speaker 4 (31:18):
Yeah, I'm there where I'm like, hey, I can't believe
like this still is still relevant and resonates today and
other stuff.
Speaker 3 (31:28):
I will say I've got one more, but I will
say I think Tina Feye did a phenomenal job writing
this script, which makes me believe why couldn't some of
her writing on SNL be better?
Speaker 2 (31:39):
Oh? Whoa careful?
Speaker 4 (31:40):
Hey? Come on, Actually, I don't know it nearly enough
about who writes what she also wrote? Didn't she write
the musical?
Speaker 3 (31:54):
Yeah? Well her and her husband. Her husband wrote the music. Yeah,
so her husband is a yeah she, I mean she
wrote the book. Lastly, nephew in law one Star for
Me and Girls says he was visited by a large
cockroach while watching this terrible experience. That was his review.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
Again, not fair to the movie, right, not fair to
the movie. But anything goes on letterbox.
Speaker 3 (32:26):
This is an award winner. Really should be shocked. This
won many awards. It was a two time MTV Movie
Award winner Best for Female Performance Lindsay Lohan, Best on
Screen Team Lindsay in the Plastics.
Speaker 2 (32:42):
Well, good for them, Yeah, I.
Speaker 4 (32:44):
Would saying this is those that these movies were made
for MTV Movie One.
Speaker 3 (32:50):
Teen Choice Awards, Schorice Awards, all that good stuff. Fun
fact though initially and this kind of goes into the
KUDDA would have should have But I'm gonna throw it
here on the top of the page. Lindsey Lohan was
cast as Regina initially. Oh, but she decided to play
the nice girl so the public would not base her
(33:11):
real personality on Regina's. So I'm thinking the time was
slowly beginning. She knew it before the Yeah, before we knew.
Speaker 4 (33:19):
I want to play the sweetheart why You'll see.
Speaker 3 (33:23):
And then Rachel Adams was chosen to play mc adams. McAdams,
I said McAdams.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
I think you said Adams.
Speaker 4 (33:31):
She's the classiest of this whole bunch. I don't know
why you keep picking on her.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
Dare you pick on Amanda like that? Anyway, Rachel was
chosen to play mean girl Regina because only nice girls
can play mean girls, according to the producer.
Speaker 4 (33:44):
Now that may though, Plus I feel like that's that's
gotta be more fun.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
Yeah, Queen Latifa what queen herself?
Speaker 4 (33:55):
Excuse me?
Speaker 2 (33:56):
Queen Latifa was nominated for Best Female Performance that year
at the MTV Movie Awards for bringing down the House
Queen Latifa. No, No, that was a different category.
Speaker 4 (34:10):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (34:11):
Best Female Performance actually went to Uma Thurman for Kill
Bill Volume One. Also nominated was Yeah, Drew Barrymore, we.
Speaker 3 (34:21):
Did Kill Bill last years.
Speaker 2 (34:24):
For This Is For two thousand and four, Drew Barrymore
was nominated for Fifty First Dates, Halle Berry for Gothica,
the aforementioned Queen Latifah, and then Charlie's Darren was nominated
for Monster. Yes, Glad, Glad, we put a real hell yeah,
real performance in there. Lindsay Lohan won hell yeah, best
(34:46):
Breakthrough free Female that year. Oh god, oh wait, no,
I am looking at the wrong year.
Speaker 4 (34:55):
That really did come out of nowhere, Queen Latin.
Speaker 2 (34:57):
Because it was she won for Freaky Friday, not Mean Girls.
Speaker 3 (35:01):
So she went so she went back to back back.
She did a breakthrough and then the.
Speaker 2 (35:06):
Best female she won for Me and Girls. Okay, beat
out Uma Thurman who won to Volume too. He beat
out Rachel McAdams for the Notebook, Natalie Portman for Garden State,
and then she beat out Hillary Swink for a million
dollar Baby.
Speaker 4 (35:21):
Okay, she has no right winning that.
Speaker 2 (35:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (35:24):
Well, yeah, she's been for garden State.
Speaker 2 (35:27):
Glad we hashed that out.
Speaker 4 (35:28):
Yeah, buye. We got back to where we started.
Speaker 3 (35:33):
Uh, let's let's throw something out here. This is number
related and I saw no brains go zone out.
Speaker 2 (35:38):
I'm out.
Speaker 3 (35:38):
But although they play mother and daughter in the film,
Amy Poehler is only seven years older than Rachel McAdams.
Speaker 4 (35:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (35:45):
Was Rachel McAdams twenty six?
Speaker 3 (35:49):
Yeah, and Lindsay was seventeen into eighteen when they were filmed.
Oh my god, that's crazy. What Although they both just
kind of goes into what I just said. They portray
characters who are still in high school and are in
the same grade because they're both juniors. Rachel McAdams is
eight years older than Lindsay lohand Rachel was twenty six
during the filming.
Speaker 4 (36:09):
It also kind of makes you wonder because I think
what Rachel McAdams was what in Hot Chick, Yes, she was,
but I wonder if that age difference does kind of
explain like whenming girls became really popular that Rachel McAdams
was just because she was more mature handled things differently
after that success more than maybe Lohand, who's only seventeen eighteen.
(36:33):
And you know, I'm just I'm just curious because I
didn't realize there was that big of an age gap.
Speaker 3 (36:38):
Well, if you're paying attention to the numbers I threw
at you, you would then know that Amy Poehler is
fifteen years older than Lindsay Lohan.
Speaker 4 (36:46):
Yeah, and Amy Pohlar looks great.
Speaker 2 (36:48):
Yeah really that yeah she does?
Speaker 3 (36:52):
Yeh uh. Do you know who invented the terms fetch?
My God, I try to move I try to move
past sometimes.
Speaker 4 (36:59):
Know who.
Speaker 3 (37:01):
You know who invented the term fetch?
Speaker 2 (37:04):
Gretchen Wieners. Yeah, well dumb ass?
Speaker 4 (37:10):
Was it Bill Hayter's character on SNL?
Speaker 2 (37:13):
No, it was.
Speaker 4 (37:15):
Does she write that?
Speaker 3 (37:16):
Yeah? Yeah, she wrote it. She didn't want to use
an expression teenagers actually used because she didn't want it
to become outdated later.
Speaker 2 (37:24):
Well smart bit of writing.
Speaker 4 (37:26):
Yeah, smart for fetch part anyway, uh.
Speaker 2 (37:29):
Tina, Only she could have seen it for retard and slut. Well,
I mean she gave you fugly that's true. That's true, uh,
Tina Fey and vision backgrounds for all of the characters
backstories if you will. So if any of the actors
had questions about their characters, she could fill in the
blanks for them as well.
Speaker 4 (37:47):
No wonder, she basically had this book already before it
became a music She might as.
Speaker 3 (37:51):
Well just written the original book.
Speaker 2 (37:53):
Yeah yeah. Uh.
Speaker 3 (37:55):
Lacey Shavert was the first and only choice for Gretchen Wieners,
and this was Amanda Seafreed's first film role.
Speaker 2 (38:02):
Really wow, I did not know that.
Speaker 3 (38:05):
Now you talked about some of the use of the
language in this film. There were numerous script changes that
were made in order to keep the PG thirteen rating
and not be given an R Oh I want the Well,
here's what you would have gotten in the first draft
of the script. When Katie walks in on Jason and
Gretchen at the party, Gretchen in the film is seen
(38:25):
given him a kiss they're making out, and the original
script she's given him head.
Speaker 4 (38:31):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (38:33):
It was shamey icy change to the kissing to keep
the rating. And the scene where Katie was asked if
your muffin was buttered? The line was originally going to
be is your cherry popped?
Speaker 4 (38:44):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (38:45):
And the same went for the girl who made out
with a hot dog. This was going to be masturbated
with a hot dog. These were admitted in order to
keep their PG thirteen rating.
Speaker 4 (38:55):
Oh my god, it just became a different movie.
Speaker 2 (38:57):
Yep, does a little bit doesn't.
Speaker 3 (39:00):
And it was also becoming difficult to keep the wide
set vagina joke.
Speaker 2 (39:05):
That's a great joke.
Speaker 3 (39:07):
Yeah. The director argued with the rating board that the
film Anchorman also used similar dialogue and then was given
the allowance to keep it in.
Speaker 2 (39:17):
Got Him, Got Him, Got Him?
Speaker 3 (39:20):
Got you. Will Ferrell a little funny little tidbit with
Amy Poehler and one of the scenes she pins a
piece of cocktail Wiener to her brawl to encourage the
chihuahua to start nibbling there. As you see in one
of the scenes.
Speaker 2 (39:34):
In the film. How about that. That's oh man, that's
risky because eats through the cocktail Wiener, Then.
Speaker 3 (39:41):
What ouche Your one nibble, I mean one nipple polar
for the rest of your life. Makes you think how
Tina Fey got that scar?
Speaker 2 (39:55):
Hey, you know what?
Speaker 4 (39:57):
On a serious note, I can't remember the story.
Speaker 3 (40:00):
But she tells you remember.
Speaker 2 (40:01):
I don't remember the story either.
Speaker 4 (40:02):
The first episode that's actually how she got that scar.
Speaker 3 (40:06):
The first episode of Polars podcast is with Tina Fey.
Speaker 4 (40:09):
Yeah, let's just plug it. It's called good hang.
Speaker 3 (40:11):
Yeah, it's a good hang.
Speaker 4 (40:12):
It's a really good hang.
Speaker 3 (40:15):
It's no SmartLess or armchair expert, but it's pretty damn good.
Speaker 4 (40:19):
I have not gotten into armchair expert. With Dak Shepherd.
Speaker 3 (40:22):
I'm sorry to hear that you're missing out on.
Speaker 4 (40:23):
Shepherd looks really old, the.
Speaker 3 (40:25):
Same age as me. We're days apart from being the same.
Speaker 4 (40:30):
Age, okay, and.
Speaker 3 (40:33):
I hate it here. Welcome to Mean Boys Boys. In
the book upon which the movie is based, the most
popular girl in a school is given the title Queen Bee.
In the movie. The character fits that description is named Regina,
which means queen in Latin, Italian and Romanian.
Speaker 2 (40:53):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (40:54):
I did not know that Tina Fey rite so smart
as she's smart.
Speaker 4 (40:58):
That's what I've gotten out of this is she's smart.
Speaker 2 (41:01):
And she knows what she's doing.
Speaker 4 (41:03):
And I don't want to push back because I know
that you research things. But I heard that for Lacey
originally was supposed to be Nicholas Cage.
Speaker 3 (41:11):
You're correct, it was actually Vin Diesel.
Speaker 4 (41:14):
Oh yeah, here's my next choice.
Speaker 2 (41:16):
Tina Fey. H not to get us off off track here,
but the Queen Latifa. The recent the recent Netflix series
The Four Seasons So good, Oh.
Speaker 3 (41:26):
My god, based off of the Alan Alda film.
Speaker 4 (41:28):
Yeah, and I was happy to see Alan all in there.
Speaker 3 (41:31):
I was too, and I honestly forgot he was alive.
Speaker 2 (41:35):
I did took, I knew he had.
Speaker 4 (41:37):
I think it's Parkinson's. I'm pretty sure I.
Speaker 3 (41:39):
Grew up loving mash. Mash kind of ended when it
ended its run, when I was like, I don't know,
six or seven, but I would always watch the reruns.
And then he's in my favorite I can't say his name,
but I'm gonna do anyway? What do they allen film
Manhattan Murder Mystery.
Speaker 4 (41:53):
I I like that show two to four seasons. Yeah,
I enjoyed it. I love the way it was done. Uh,
and it's only eight episodes, two per season. Basically that cast.
Speaker 2 (42:04):
Is great, it is. Yeah, I don't.
Speaker 4 (42:10):
Like Colman Domingo's husband, but I don't know his name.
Speaker 2 (42:12):
I'm not from I don't either. And then, of course
Trudy from Reno nine.
Speaker 4 (42:16):
God, and what a what a part she hasn't?
Speaker 2 (42:20):
What a glow like?
Speaker 4 (42:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (42:22):
Yeah, that's the only thing she's done since Reno nine.
Speaker 4 (42:25):
Yeah, nothing else.
Speaker 3 (42:27):
Uh that we talked about the SNL alums that are
associated with this film, there's also uh, somewhat of an
alum for Suray Night Live that is in the film
but not seen, and that's Lizzie Kaplan's character, janis Ian.
Janis Ian is actually the name of singer songwriter janis Ian,
who was the original musical guest alongside Billy Preston on
(42:50):
the first episode of Say Night Live.
Speaker 2 (42:52):
How about that?
Speaker 4 (42:53):
I had no idea.
Speaker 3 (42:54):
There's a little Easter egg there for you. And then
we've mentioned it several times in the film, but in
twenty thirteen, Tina Fey started that She stated that she
and her husband Jeff Richmond had been working on a
Mean Girl stage production, which made its debut October thirty,
first Halloween of twenty seventeen at the National Theater in Washington, DC,
(43:15):
and then it later moved to Broadway's August Wilson Theater
in the spring of twenty eighteen. The book is written
by Tina Fey, with the music by her husband Jeff Richmond,
lyrics by Neil Benjamin, and the direction in choreography by
Nicholas Casey nicolaw and then one. It was nominated for
numerous Tony Awards as well that year.
Speaker 4 (43:34):
Yeah, you make me want to go see see it
in broad on Broadway, which I.
Speaker 2 (43:40):
Won't, but he got planned soon.
Speaker 4 (43:43):
Yeah, but I think the movie version of it, I
think is unnecessary.
Speaker 3 (43:49):
I'm not going to argue that I still enjoyed it.
Speaker 4 (43:51):
It made you think, It made you think about how
this one is a lot better.
Speaker 3 (43:56):
I already knew that, I know. Yeah, I didn't either
think that.
Speaker 4 (44:01):
What was the main girl's name again? Who played Regina?
Speaker 3 (44:04):
Well, she didn't originate the role on Broadway, but she
Renee raped Regina George at one point.
Speaker 4 (44:10):
Okay, she was great.
Speaker 3 (44:12):
Who was also in the Sex Lives of College Girls.
Oh yeah, this is a great show.
Speaker 2 (44:19):
My wife watches that.
Speaker 3 (44:20):
I don't watch that one because it has a lot
of vagina. Right, it has the word well I saw,
I saw sex in the title. I thought, no, thank you,
I'll go back to my almostat I fell for the
city part. I'm not falling for the college one. No, yuck.
Speaker 4 (44:33):
Yeah, young women.
Speaker 3 (44:37):
I'm gonna get to should have. But when the project
was announced in two thousand and two, Paul Greengrass was
listening director.
Speaker 4 (44:46):
Damn, Now that's a movie I want to see.
Speaker 3 (44:49):
Who if you don't know he did Captain Phillips, Yes,
ninety three and several of the Born movies. Yes, Picture
of Mean Girls with Paul.
Speaker 4 (44:59):
Yes, I let me tell you we'll get some dick
in that.
Speaker 2 (45:02):
Yeah. I guarantee you better believe it.
Speaker 4 (45:04):
God dang, Matt Damon b Regina.
Speaker 3 (45:08):
And speaking of the Bourne films, uh Bourne Identity. Before
the casting began the role of Nicolette, they had four
actresses and in mine for that role, and those actresses
were Lindsay Lohan, Rachel McAdams, Lacy Shipper, and Amanda Sea Freed.
Speaker 2 (45:28):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (45:29):
Wow, Maybe that's how Paul got on board.
Speaker 2 (45:32):
What maybe maybe that was it? The link between the
Bourne Born movies and Mean.
Speaker 3 (45:40):
Girls who have seen that coming.
Speaker 2 (45:42):
What could have been? God, that's like the crossover they want,
Like what Fast and Furious and Jurassic Park. We need
Jason Bourne and.
Speaker 4 (45:49):
Mean Girls or the what is it? The g I
Joe and Something g.
Speaker 2 (45:54):
I Joe and Transformers. Yeah, I mean that's actually happening.
Speaker 4 (45:57):
That's real.
Speaker 2 (45:58):
Yeah, that's real.
Speaker 3 (46:00):
I mean I saw that every Saturday morning growing up.
Speaker 2 (46:02):
Yeah. Yeah yeah.
Speaker 3 (46:04):
Amanda Sea Free reflected on Mean Girls earlier this year
in an interview, and she says, until you until the
day you die, a fourteen year old girl will come
up to you every day and quote you as if
Mean Girls just came out the day before. I hope
they quoted on my grave. In many ways, it was
just a perfect movie. I will any day honor that
movie for what it did for me just as a person.
Speaker 2 (46:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (46:26):
I mean she should, Yeah, they all should.
Speaker 3 (46:29):
I mean, it gave her a gift. She knows when
it's gonna rain exactly.
Speaker 4 (46:32):
That is. That was one of the parts where I
remembered and saw it again. I mean there's and the
thing is no matter. Like again, I don't think it's
as enjoyable as when I first saw it, which maybe
it's also because I'm older, But I will say the
four girls are are good, like.
Speaker 3 (46:48):
They're like yea, that chemistry five because I think I
think Lind's Lizzie belongs.
Speaker 4 (46:55):
Yeah, I kind of yeah, I mean I like them too,
but it's almost like there's a lot at play with
those four and if it doesn't work, like there's not
a weak link in any like everybody gets their due.
Now we watch it today and think, okay, and I'm sorry,
but you know, we kind of see them differently, we
rank them differently back than when two thousand and four.
But nothing works without it change any of them. It
(47:20):
doesn't work unless it's Nicholas Cage.
Speaker 3 (47:22):
But well, let's talk about some casting that could have happened.
Speaker 4 (47:26):
I just did.
Speaker 3 (47:27):
Well, I'm going to continue talking about it. Okay, So
you've already mentioned your love for the actor who played
Aaron Samuels because of all of his cooking shows. Yes, Halloween,
you already forget who Aeron Samuels I was. That's not
his real name, No, that's why I said the actor
who played.
Speaker 4 (47:44):
Oh okay, Sorry, I was waiting to hear the Bennet
or whatever his name is, but.
Speaker 3 (47:47):
Yeah, he was not the first choice for the role.
Hold on, it's not Nicholas Cage.
Speaker 4 (47:56):
Two thousand and four. He's supposed to be young.
Speaker 2 (48:02):
Paul Giama, Yeah, who.
Speaker 4 (48:04):
Also was a I'm gonna say a young uh.
Speaker 3 (48:08):
I will say this person also has a brother who acts.
Speaker 4 (48:13):
One of the hymn that's one of the hymns worst ones,
isn't it. It is not he has a brother that
acts though.
Speaker 2 (48:19):
James Franco, James.
Speaker 3 (48:20):
Franco, I was gonna say Eddie Murphy, damn it.
Speaker 2 (48:25):
Almost almost so.
Speaker 3 (48:27):
James Franco is considered for the role of Aaron Samuels,
and he was also considered for a role as a
high school teacher in the musical version of the movie
Oh Okay to give this later went to John Ham.
Speaker 4 (48:39):
Oh, they wanted him, and I still want him in movies.
Speaker 2 (48:42):
John Ham. James Franco, Yeah, yeah, that is surprising too.
Speaker 4 (48:46):
That's pretty recent to offer him a role like that.
Speaker 3 (48:48):
I'm There were several actresses who uh tested for the
role of Karen Smith that eventually went to Amanda. You
have Scarlett Johansson.
Speaker 2 (48:59):
Oh wow, that's uh, that's interesting. But I mean at
the time you're looking twenty one years ago.
Speaker 3 (49:05):
Yeah, Ashley Tisdale, I don't even know if High School
Musical is out at this point.
Speaker 4 (49:12):
I don't think if it's not, it's close.
Speaker 3 (49:14):
Well, No, I find it hard to believe.
Speaker 4 (49:16):
I think that was like another years old. No, I
think it was another eight or so years. I think
that's in the twenty ten. Yeah, I'm just trying to think.
Speaker 2 (49:22):
Of musical two thousand and six.
Speaker 3 (49:24):
Oh, so it is weird the Ballpark.
Speaker 4 (49:27):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (49:27):
Three others, Blake Lively, Okay, okay, Leon Layton missed Mester,
I knew how to say and I still budget it.
And then Megan Fox.
Speaker 2 (49:37):
I could have one hundred percent of Seen.
Speaker 4 (49:39):
I can see making Fox as well, but but I
think she would.
Speaker 3 (49:44):
But I also see here as Regina George.
Speaker 2 (49:46):
I know.
Speaker 4 (49:46):
I just say, I think I kind of see her overshadowing.
Speaker 3 (49:51):
I think that's two alphas. Yeah together.
Speaker 4 (49:54):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (49:55):
But then you also had people up for the role
of Gretchen. You have Ashley Tisdale. Again, I think she
just all didition for fucking everything. Vanessa Hutchins. Yeah, I
could have seen that. Selena Gomez, No, Ramona Flowers herself,
Mary Elizabeth Wednsday.
Speaker 4 (50:13):
Damn, I didn't hear Susan Sarandon.
Speaker 2 (50:19):
You didn't hear.
Speaker 3 (50:21):
Alicia Silverstone either.
Speaker 4 (50:22):
Yeah, Well, how was my next one?
Speaker 2 (50:24):
In?
Speaker 4 (50:24):
Joan Cusack?
Speaker 3 (50:26):
Hillary Duff turned down the role of Katie What. Yeah,
because she was decided to do Cheaper by the dozen instead.
Speaker 4 (50:35):
Good choice.
Speaker 2 (50:35):
Well, yeah, I think it worked out for for her.
Speaker 3 (50:40):
And then I have a note for somebody who auditioned
for the role of Janice, and that's one America Ferrera.
Speaker 4 (50:48):
Again.
Speaker 3 (50:49):
Janis Ian the.
Speaker 2 (50:51):
Lizzie Kaplan, Lizzie Kaplan.
Speaker 4 (50:53):
There you go, oh yeah, Lizzie Kaplan really crusted. That's
her role.
Speaker 2 (50:59):
Yeah, Lizzie Kaplan is.
Speaker 4 (51:01):
And I'm happy to see that. She's also gone on
to kind of be one of the probably most notable
names in the movie. Not that not in two thousand
and four, but looking back now you're like, oh, oh, yeah,
I forgot she was in that night before.
Speaker 2 (51:15):
It's actually just love Kaplin.
Speaker 3 (51:18):
And then it doesn't say what role she turned down,
but Evan rachel Wood turned down a role in the
film because she had already committed to the lead part
in another film called Pretty Persuasion, So I'm not familiar
with that, but it has a similar plot to Me
and Girls.
Speaker 2 (51:35):
Oh interesting, Yeah, I don't know. I never heard of that.
Have a I'm with Brandon.
Speaker 3 (51:41):
I'm kindly came out in two thousand and five.
Speaker 2 (51:44):
Oh yeah, it did, it did, Yeah, and it is okay.
It has a Rotten Tomatoes. Rotten Tomatoes has it at
thirty three percent?
Speaker 3 (51:55):
She made it right choice.
Speaker 2 (51:56):
Then I guess James Woods is in the film.
Speaker 4 (51:58):
That's all you had to say.
Speaker 2 (52:00):
Ron Livingston is in the film.
Speaker 4 (52:01):
Wait, I like him.
Speaker 2 (52:02):
Selma Blair, who we just talked about a couple of
months ago and it's only thirty three Jamie King. Wow,
there are some names, so okay, here we go. Pretty
Persuasion is a two thousand and five American black comedy
film Let's Skip all the People. It's plot follows a manipulative,
sociopathic fifteen year old student at an elite Beverly Hills
(52:24):
Academy who accuses her drama teacher of sexual harassment.
Speaker 4 (52:28):
So just like, yeah, I think James Woods probably plays that.
Speaker 2 (52:36):
We're just gonna assume because it's James Woods. Yeah, I'm
not with you.
Speaker 4 (52:41):
Yeah, no, I see, I see where the confusion lies.
Speaker 3 (52:46):
I did learn that an actor, Uh, this was the
first film they ever auditioned for. Yeah, and it's the
Star the Arrow Steven Amel. This is the first film
he ever auditioned for.
Speaker 2 (52:58):
How about that?
Speaker 3 (52:59):
Wow, he could have been Aaron Samuel.
Speaker 2 (53:01):
Yeah, I was just about to say, he's n It'd
have been a better It's the Bill. It's the Bill,
I said it.
Speaker 3 (53:07):
Okay, I'm not mad, but I talked about I talked
earlier about Tim Meadows not supposed to be the principal
in the Yeah, and he did so good he came
back for the sequel. I mean, well, yeah, he is
in the sequel. He's the only I think he's the
only person girls. Yeah, mean girls too. And he's also
in the musical as well.
Speaker 4 (53:26):
Can you? I mean, but he did Ladies Man and well.
Speaker 3 (53:29):
Yeah, no, he did other things. I'm saying. But he
wasn't the first person asked or chosen to be in
this film.
Speaker 4 (53:34):
Wow, it was seconds, maybe thirds, we don't know.
Speaker 3 (53:37):
But it is a Saturday night live alone.
Speaker 4 (53:41):
Hold on m is it Bill Murray?
Speaker 3 (53:46):
It is not Bill Murray you're in the You're in
the right time frame of SNL though dan Aykroyd No.
Speaker 4 (53:51):
Damn Chevy Chase.
Speaker 3 (53:53):
Now Chevy Chase was suggested, but producer Lauren Michaels refused
to cast Chase because he had banned the actor from
ever hosting his show SNL again due to some controversy
Chase was involved and when hosting the show in the nineties.
Speaker 4 (54:07):
Yeah, no, that makes sense. Well, by god, who we've
named Murray Aroyd?
Speaker 3 (54:16):
Who else is there dead? Eddie Murphy still alive, but
it's not Mury Steve Martin.
Speaker 2 (54:24):
H Yeah, I could see that. Yeah, I guess he's.
Speaker 4 (54:28):
Worked with Tina.
Speaker 3 (54:29):
He's a personal comedy hero of Tina Fey's, and she
asked him to portray mister Duvall, the school principal, but
he was busy shooting with Hillary Duff on.
Speaker 4 (54:38):
Cheap and Classic Classic, and then they ended up working
together and only murders in the building.
Speaker 2 (54:45):
How about that?
Speaker 4 (54:46):
Nice?
Speaker 2 (54:47):
How that works out.
Speaker 3 (54:50):
Rachel McAdams and Amanda Seafried are the only two main
cast members nominated for an Academy Award.
Speaker 2 (54:56):
M HM.
Speaker 4 (54:57):
What was Rachel McAdams nominated.
Speaker 2 (54:59):
For The Notebook? No?
Speaker 4 (55:02):
And I guess Spotlight Spotlight. I bet you that's it
Supporting Actress.
Speaker 3 (55:07):
See when you say when you say Academy Awards, I
automatically think MTV Movie.
Speaker 4 (55:11):
Awards, you do you do the notebook.
Speaker 3 (55:14):
I don't understand why she didn't get no question, Yeah,
what do you mean red Eye?
Speaker 2 (55:18):
Sure she was nominated for Best Supporting Actress.
Speaker 4 (55:22):
For Spotlight, right, Okay, yeah, Now, Amanda Seyfried, I do
know that's from.
Speaker 2 (55:25):
Mank mank Was. I liked mank Wait. No, I'm thinking
of Trumbo. I like Trumbo mank Was.
Speaker 4 (55:33):
Gary Old Meanim David Fincher movie. But anyway, but yeah,
so that uh yeah, as.
Speaker 3 (55:39):
Far as fun facts everything, that's really all I have
for Mean Girls. But I do think, and it's been
stated earlier that this is one of the most quotable.
Speaker 2 (55:46):
Movies still to this Oh yeah, oh yeah.
Speaker 3 (55:49):
Any favorite quotes, because I could be here all day
fucking saying mine.
Speaker 2 (55:52):
I still say, you go, Glenn Coco and she doesn't
even go here.
Speaker 3 (55:57):
It doesn't even go I have a hoodie that says that.
Speaker 4 (56:00):
Yeah, I like that woman. She doesn't even go here.
Speaker 3 (56:04):
Danny DeVito, I love your stuff.
Speaker 2 (56:06):
Yeah, there's one of them, And I can't remember where
for word that Tim Meadows says, And it's not in
the gym.
Speaker 4 (56:14):
It's before that. Somebody was in his office. I can't
remember who it was, but he says this one line
that I thought was funny. But I don't know if
it's quotable, but it's one that I really liked. I
liked it so much I don't remember.
Speaker 3 (56:25):
Don't forget. Uh, I like when Karen goes, if you're
from Africa, why are you white?
Speaker 4 (56:31):
Yeah, there's stuff like that that just shows the ignorance
of people that I like, or just the naiveness of
just like what you and you're stuck in your own
little bubble. That's still very much is uhlevant.
Speaker 2 (56:46):
Tuesdays we wear on Wednesdays we wear say the.
Speaker 4 (56:50):
Pink stuff, the that she doesn't even go here.
Speaker 3 (56:56):
I want anybody tells me they're busy or they're sick
and can't like do whatever we've had planned. I just say, boo,
you whore.
Speaker 4 (57:04):
Oh yeah, well that's why you say that.
Speaker 2 (57:07):
Yeah, I'd say you thought you were just being called a.
Speaker 4 (57:11):
Horror Yeah, yeah, I thought that was really a personal attack. Uh.
Speaker 3 (57:16):
One I'd forgotten about somebody. It's just like a throwaway
character says one line like, oh nice week, Janice, what
is it made of? Jesus plays your mom's chest hair?
Speaker 2 (57:24):
Yeah, I'm John.
Speaker 4 (57:26):
There are some I really truly did forget, like I
had no idea, and those were the nice surprises of
the movie.
Speaker 3 (57:33):
Yeah. Oh, Coach Carr is like, don't have sex or
you'll get pregnant and die.
Speaker 2 (57:40):
Yep is another good one.
Speaker 3 (57:45):
I forget what how the line goes, but he's basically
talking about chlamydia to the kids, and I just fucking
cracked up. Just read the whole script, start from the top.
I fucking got it. I got it here, I did
fucking do it. Uh oh, when they're at the Halloween like,
what are you a mouse? Dum?
Speaker 4 (58:06):
That one was it? That one was a good one.
Speaker 3 (58:07):
Like you said earlier, you go Glen Coco. And Glen
Coco is not even a character shown in the.
Speaker 2 (58:12):
We don't know who Glen Coco is.
Speaker 3 (58:15):
It's a real person because I did read in my
notes that somebody Tina Fey has worked with on different things,
maybe S and L or something, I don't remember, but
Glenn Clogo is.
Speaker 4 (58:23):
Really a shout out more than addressing anything.
Speaker 3 (58:27):
Like the whole Janey And yeah, I was trying to
find the quote uh Stony was referring to from the principal,
but I can't find it. But yeah, yeah, that's that's it.
That's that's a lot of things to talk about. We've
talked about a lot with Oh, mister Devaal says coach Carr,
(58:50):
step away from the underage girls. Yes, yes, yeah, I
know that's not the quote you're talking about, but.
Speaker 4 (58:57):
That one, No, but that is a good one. I
forget about that one.
Speaker 3 (58:59):
That was all right. So I brought to the group
what we always do, a mount rushmore question to close
out the show, and I said, hey, your favorite book adaptations.
Speaker 4 (59:08):
Yeah, big mistake.
Speaker 3 (59:10):
I didn't think this was going to be as hard
as I fuck it was the lot. I personally chose
my four as films where I've actually read the book. No,
not mean, I know reading is not your fortees sometimes.
Speaker 4 (59:24):
No, Yeah, there's one. There's one that I read after I.
Speaker 3 (59:28):
Watched the movie The Little Engine That Could.
Speaker 4 (59:30):
No, is that a movie?
Speaker 3 (59:31):
Probably?
Speaker 4 (59:32):
I think so?
Speaker 2 (59:34):
I mean mine would be Return of the King, and
I actually did read that book, so that would that
would count. I don't know. I mean I jotted down,
I've got thirteen listed here before I finally I had
to give up.
Speaker 4 (59:49):
I really don't thank you.
Speaker 2 (59:51):
Yeah, I think it's I didn't even stop looking. I
just said, this is all I'm going to do, because
I'll be here.
Speaker 3 (59:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (59:56):
No, I I looked it up a week ago, and
then when you supposed.
Speaker 3 (01:00:00):
The last night, because I didn't do mine till last night.
Speaker 4 (01:00:02):
So then I looked again, and yeah, I mean, I go.
I mean, if you just want to name some.
Speaker 2 (01:00:10):
Of yours, I'll just read all thirteen here.
Speaker 3 (01:00:12):
Yeah. I think I about to say.
Speaker 2 (01:00:15):
Little Women, Silence of the Lambs, Jurassic Park, The Great Gatsby,
Shutter Island, Mystic River, Broke Back, Mountain, Dune, obviously, Three
Tender Yuma, The Descendants, The Princess Bride, and No Country
for Old Men.
Speaker 3 (01:00:29):
I don't think you listed a single one I have
on my list.
Speaker 2 (01:00:32):
How about that?
Speaker 4 (01:00:33):
I think you listed most of mine. No Country for
Old Men. I watched the film and then read the book. Yes,
I was going to say Lord of the Rings, but
specifically Return of the King. I haven't read those, but
I love that movie. Silence of the Lambs, Jurassic Park.
I haven't forgot Shutter Island, Mystic River based on the
Dennis Lane. Yeah books, there was just ton One flu
(01:00:57):
Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Yeah, uh one, Yeah, the Dune
ones like. I feel like almost everything is probably based
off some sort of book. Like but yeah, I looked
at all those, and any of those could be on
the top.
Speaker 3 (01:01:16):
I've got three that are very personal to me, and
I'll say those flasts. So I've got the color purple.
Are you there? God, it's me Margaret, because that fucking
movie was all that. The Outsiders. I love The Outsiders,
Gone Girl, The Room, which is a hard movie to watch,
(01:01:37):
Room Room. Sorry, okay, all right, I do not want.
Speaker 4 (01:01:43):
People thanking you. There's a book based off I.
Speaker 3 (01:01:46):
Forgot, completely forgot about the Room. I wanted to make
sure The Exorcists. Yeah, the Help then less than zero.
But the three, the three that I really love. Every
book reading as a child was Bridge to Teabithia. And
then there's My Comfort. One of my comfort films is
(01:02:08):
The Jane Austin Book Club. And then when I was
in college, I was on my college's forensics team competitive
speaking team, and I always I was given a piece
to read for competition from a book called The Minus
Man and there's a movie version of it with Owen
Wilson and Jenine Garoffalo and I think dwighte Yoakam is
(01:02:32):
in it as well. Yes, it's about a serial killer
that kind of blends into society.
Speaker 4 (01:02:40):
It's early, very super.
Speaker 3 (01:02:46):
The piece I read was he's in the Killers from
his POV. He's in a food court and you know,
you got all the different little restaurants around, and his
victim has gone and gotten food that he is and
it's all about him watching and describing what's happening as
the guy is slowly dying, unknown that he's been poisoned poison.
(01:03:11):
It's a really good book and it's a wow, it's
a it's a fun little movie too.
Speaker 4 (01:03:15):
I remember really liking it's from the same writer of
Gone Girl called Sharp Objects. It was her debut book
that ended up being a limited series in HBO that
had Amy Adams and Patricia Clarkson in it. But you
know what, I haven't read a lot or the movie.
The books that I have read, like, I wouldn't say
Mount Rushmore, but I like The Martian. I read that
(01:03:36):
and then saw the movie later. The Road it's also
about ir mc McCarthy with Figo Mortenson in it. But yeah,
I was shocked to even see some that were like
I totally forgot, like I said, with the Dennis la
Haynes stuff. So yeah, it was just impossible. I'm like,
I started looking more and more and I'm like, oh
(01:03:56):
my god, I'm never going to be able to just
pick four from these.
Speaker 3 (01:03:59):
Yeah, Like John Steinbeck has always been my favorite author,
and there's an East of Eaton's my favorite book of his,
but there's not a technical film version. There's a TV
movie version of it, Okay, so I didn't count that well.
Speaker 4 (01:04:10):
And there's also one and I think it's very loosely
based on it, but there will be blood. But it's
called oil with an exclamation point. But I don't think
it's actually like I think it was inspired, but that's
not like Oil was not the story of Daniel Plainviews.
I'm like, well, I won't I won't count that. But like,
No Country was one of the first things that was
one of the top ones that I thought of in
(01:04:31):
