In Christ, in Christ, we're going to steal all this stuff.

Speaker 2: 1:12

No, I said brother, and then you said something in the middle of me, saying in Christ.

Speaker 1: 1:19

Oh.

Speaker 2: 1:19

Anyways, yeah, so this is the Saints that Serve podcast. This is episode 40.

Speaker 1: 1:26

That's right. We are the saints that serve.

Speaker 2: 1:28

Podcast also over the hill we are at our midlife crisis, baby, gotta love it. So, uh, yeah, do us a favor and if you get the ability to like our social stuff and this podcast, do that for me. And if you're not subscribed to us on YouTube, I humbly ask that you do so, because we've got actual videos on YouTube. That's where we do our live streams.

Speaker 1: 1:56

We've got stuff which we had one a couple weeks ago.

Speaker 2: 2:00

Yes, we did have one a couple of weeks ago Worship night live stream. Worship night live stream. We do it the first Friday of every month, so make sure that you are keeping up and tuning in, because we just have a fun time. We praise Jesus, we make some jokes and we pray.

Speaker 1: 2:17

That's right and without fail. It's always the first Friday of every month, except on the 4th of July, except on the 4th of July. We're going to push that one back probably a week, yeah, yeah. Just so we can be with friends and family.

Speaker 2: 2:35

Yeah, so we can be with friends and family and so we don't have to compete with fireworks.

Speaker 1: 2:39

So we'll just be live streaming and just go. Just so much in the background. Also, like you said, no one's going to be watching because, yeah everyone's going to be.

Speaker 2: 2:49

Well, I would hope everyone would be outside watching fireworks, because that's pretty fun.

Speaker 1: 2:54

Maybe we should do it and then just try to compete with the fire in the sky.

Speaker 2: 3:01

Nah, dude, I'm okay with it.

Speaker 1: 3:05

So, Juras how are you doing? I'm doing good. How are you doing?

Speaker 2: 3:09

I'm doing pretty good. How do you feel about our exploration into Vikingdom last week?

Speaker 1: 3:16

It was fun. It was a fun episode to edit as well.

Speaker 2: 3:19

I think it was a good time and I think if you haven't listened to it, you totally should.

Speaker 1: 3:24

So that is episode 39 of the podcast. It won't be too hard to find, because you go back one episode. That's right and that's how numbers work.

Speaker 2: 3:34

I'm gonna keep interrupting you as you try to talk yeah, we talk about all things viking media and we really, we really spend a decent amount of time talking about video games. So if you're a big video game person, definitely go listen to that episode, because there's some good recommendations on there. And that okay, talking about the games got me so excited that I re-downloaded Valheim during the recording. Yeah, you hear it, yeah, you hear it, yeah, you hear it. And then I played afterwards and dude, Is anything changed.

Speaker 2: 4:11

There's updates, yeah, there's more stuff to the game, but it's still so much fun and I think what adds to that game is that the soundtrack for the game helps immerse you into the just exploring and going around, because that's most of the game is exploration. You have to explore, yeah, to get what you need to be able to do the games very minecraft inspired yeah, yeah, very minecrafty so I'll download it.

Speaker 1: 4:42

I'm not going, I'm not going to guarantee that I play it, but I'll download it. I'll go re-download it. It's probably actually still downloaded, yeah.

Speaker 2: 4:49

Just play like two times. Two times We'll start a new map so you can start from the beginning. Because I think that's the deal is you came in on my map and I was already Decked out yeah far along and there was just too much to look at and get into and stuff, so you got to start at the beginning.

Speaker 1: 5:08

I have a counter proposal on that. Okay, let's wait, and I think it would be so much funnier if we streamed it me trying to play the game for the first time, essentially like from fresh. Let's do it, and with that, that is a segue into promoting that the saints that play is on the way that's right.

Speaker 2: 5:30

We are going to be launching a live streaming video game platform or channel channel, uh, and it will be on twitch and youtube and you can check all that stuff out. But, uh, if you look it up, saints that play on youtube it's there. We just haven't started yet, yeah, and a lot of the searches will be for the football team saints that play, yeah, so try to find the channel saints that play what I'm going to do in this particular episode.

Speaker 1: 6:05

In the show notes I'm going to put a link to the Twitch channel and the YouTube channel.

Speaker 2: 6:09

That's very thoughtful of you.

Speaker 1: 6:11

And I'll do the Facebook page as well. So why don't you go over there and just like that? Yeah, Pretty please.

Speaker 2: 6:17

Please, alright, cool, well, that's all we got.

Speaker 1: 6:23

I want to talk about it for just a second Okay.

Speaker 2: 6:26

What do you want to talk about?

Speaker 1: 6:27

I got the Switch 2.

Speaker 2: 6:29

Yay, Yay, yay, I don't have anything good for that, sorry.

Speaker 1: 6:35

You're just looking for any kind of button.

Speaker 2: 6:36

I was going to try and press a button, but hey Charlie, I don't know.

Speaker 1: 6:44

Okay, that could connect Charles martinez, the guy who voiced mario. So there you go. Hey, charlie all right, but yeah, I'm just a quick, just mini jairus review on the switch to fantastic console you really like it?

Speaker 2: 7:02

yeah, really is it everything you ever wanted, big boy?

Speaker 1: 7:04

um no, not everything dang, it doesn't. It doesn't print money for me or anything, you know what I mean. Like it doesn't provide three wishes, it's not lord of the rings.

Speaker 2: 7:19

I'm waiting for nintendo to come out with a mobile carry-with-you gaming console that also has an attachment to a comfy chair, so that, while I'm on the go playing games, if I want to stop and sit down, I can.

Speaker 1: 7:35

Yeah, so you press a button and it just ejects a chair out of the console, yeah, but it like hits you in the abdomen, oh yeah. But, no like oh.

Speaker 2: 7:45

Yeah.

Speaker 1: 7:45

But no, it's a lot of fun. My recommendation right now if you are thinking about getting a Switch 2, only get it if you have Switch 1 games. Yeah, If you skip the Switch 1, and you're like, oh, now I'll get the Switch 2. There's not a lot to play on it right now. Yeah, for me, the big game that came with it was also the big game I was going to play the most with, which is Mario Kart, mario Kart World.

Speaker 2: 8:19

World.

Speaker 1: 8:20

Oh yeah, because it's an open world game. Yeah, that's pretty sweet. I also have old Switch games and the reason why I say that is because it takes advantage of the more powerful hardware in the Switch 2 to allow for your old Switch 1 games to run smoother. There's games that run doo-doo on the Switch 1 that run perfectly on the Switch 2.

Speaker 2: 8:42

Yeah, can we talk about how annoyed you are with xbox?

Speaker 1: 8:46

do you want to? Do you want to? Just real quick, real quick okay, so over the weekend xbox and had like a press conference thing showing off new games yeah, conveniently right as the switch two's coming out well, even better, they uh that weekend.

Speaker 1: 9:02

So the Switch 2 came out on Thursday. Friday they did the Summer Game Fest, which was a bunch of game announcements which showed almost no Nintendo things at all, oh really. And then Sunday I didn't watch this, but there was the Xbox Game press conference as well, yeah, and so they announced their handheld. It's like, oh, you know, trying to show it off like, oh, yeah, what is it? Xbox ROG, is that what it is? So it's called the Xbox ROG Ally and Xbox ROG Ally X. There's two of them, so I will refer to them as the S and the X, because that's what Xbox does with their consoles. They have their lesser console and then their higher end console. They call their lower end console the S, the higher end, x. Yeah, so for the sake of me not saying Xbox ROG ally multiple times I respect that I'll just say the S and the X.

Speaker 1: 9:58

Okay, so it's a handheld. The S is obviously lesser powerful. X is better, the so the screen on it is smaller than the switch. Okay too, it's. I think it's got the same resolution, if I'm not mistaken. Okay, and it's like the s is 650 dollars and the X is $1,000. Yeah, and I'm just like, okay, cool. Well, what does it do? It's just a ROG ally, which is a system that they already sell. Rog Republic of Gaming.

Speaker 2: 10:38

Yeah.

Speaker 1: 10:39

Is a gaming company that produces gaming PC, handheld PCs yeah, yeah, that you can just play Steam or whatever off of, okay, and Xbox really isn't actually putting this platform out. They didn't do anything, they just slapped their brand on it and they have their storefront operating system that is built into the system which already exists. So it's like they're making it out like, oh, we made this great system and it is probably really good, yeah, but xbox really didn't do much of it. Nintendo fully developed a console yeah, that has all these great features, and rog made this great console, or or handheld that has all these great features, and ROG made this great console, or or handheld that has all these great features, and Microsoft said, all right, microsoft, rog ally, like it's just, it's annoying.

Speaker 2: 11:37

I wonder if any of it is scrambling to stay relevant because of the switch to.

Speaker 1: 11:41

I mean, okay, switch to is announced and so, and then you know, and then on, conveniently, on two days after the release day, xbox has a handheld out of nowhere yeah, yeah and it's just branding yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2: 11:56

Well, and you said that the switch hasn't really, or nintendo hasn't really, announced any new games, like what is the plan for the Switch 2? Because obviously they need to have games for it.

Speaker 1: 12:08

Oh, they've got games coming. Okay, they just didn't announce it, but they just don't. I mean over the weekend, no, but they showed off a lot of stuff at their like. About two months ago they had a press conference to kind of show off the Switch 2 greater before the launch of it. They've got stuff coming. They have at least now, keep in mind, nintendo is the big company that puts out. They'll put out their own games, yeah, and then other third parties will also put stuff out, so we'll have stuff between this. But they have at least one game a month coming out, just Nintendo. Okay, cool, and those are always the big tent pole like, oh, big deal games, you know.

Speaker 2: 12:48

I mean that kind of thing so, speaking of games growing up, we're gonna do a blast of the past real quick before we get into our main topic tonight it's funny that you say that, because I have a game we want.

Speaker 1: 13:01

I want play Okay.

Speaker 2: 13:03

So this is more of just a question, right, because it kind of plays into the intro for tonight for the main topic. But growing up we'll say middle school, high school, it's Friday night, it's Friday night Party. Like kid party. You know what I mean, but you're spending the night or whatever. There's a bunch of you all together. What's what is happening most of the night? What are you all doing for most of the night? Playing that game, cube. Playing that game, cube baby smash brothers, smash brothers.

Speaker 1: 13:36

Okay, I can't think of too many other. I'm sure there was plenty of them. Oh, what was it? Final fantasy, crystal chronicles do you know what that is? Uh, no, no, so it's ahead of its time where you were four characters on the screen doing your stuff yeah but instead of pausing the screen to look at your menu, it was like an rpg type game you had. You would attach your game boy advances to it. So your menu for your specific character was on your game queue. Sorry, not game your Game Boy Advance screen.

Speaker 2: 14:07

Yeah.

Speaker 1: 14:07

And you were able to navigate the menus there.

Speaker 2: 14:10

That's pretty sweet.

Speaker 1: 14:11

Yeah, some old school stuff. It's really cool yeah.

Speaker 2: 14:15

Yeah, for me it was either yeah, we would do movies, or we would play Call of Duty or Halo. Yeah, I remember you coming over a couple times and we did some, we did some halo, halo, halo halo.

Speaker 1: 14:30

It's so much fun and it well it was it's all right, but okay. So nothing compares to halo one and two no, and I really do feel like what's missing from these games is that party aspect. Nowadays, yeah, lane party, lane party like online, has taken away something yeah and that split screen. Yeah, you have a full screen to yourself, but like games are not really made around it anymore as well yeah like you try to play split screen now on modern games. It doesn't work as great as it did back then.

Speaker 2: 15:07

Yeah.

Speaker 1: 15:08

And on a smaller screen too. Yeah, you know what I mean. We had so much more fun playing split screen on a tiny TV where you had literally the size of your cell phone screen, just about real estate. Yeah, and you were having so much more fun. There's, it's just it doesn't exist, and so something like halo isn't as fun anymore. Yeah, because that sense of community isn't there, the nostalgic feeling of pizza halo. We're gonna watch some movies later on. You know what I mean yeah, that nostalgia, that nostalgia.

Speaker 2: 15:44

Yep, yep, yep, I agree. All right, what's your game?

Speaker 1: 15:47

All right, so a little introduction. Last week we kind of talked about different generational slang words.

Speaker 2: 15:58

Oh, boy, and.

Speaker 1: 15:58

I hinted at it a little bit that we were going to talk about it. Okay, and so, instead of talking about it, I have what we're called Guess that Generation, great. So I'm going to give you a slang word, okay, and you have to guess what generation it's from.

Speaker 2: 16:15

Okay.

Speaker 1: 16:16

And your options are the Silent Generation, baby Boomers, gen X, millennials, gen Z or Gen Alpha.

Speaker 2: 16:25

Are you kidding me? There's so many.

Speaker 1: 16:27

It won't be as hard as you think. It is Okay, hold on, hold on, hold on. That's me ripping off so John can have his options.

Speaker 2: 16:36

All right, right there.

Speaker 1: 16:38

Okay, I'm ready. Good, so are you ready? Yes, all right. So question one your slang is the fuzz. Oh, and bonus, bonus points. If you can tell me what the slang means the fuzz, the fuzz.

Speaker 2: 16:57

That's going to be. That's going to be the baby boomers, all right and bonus points.

Speaker 1: 17:07

If you can tell me what the fuzz is police. You got both correct.

Speaker 2: 17:11

there you go you want to know why? Why the movie hot fuzz? Yeah, it was in the 70s. No, hot fuzz was not in the 70s. No, it's based in the 70s. Oh okay, I was like no well, actually no, it is the original ones from the 70s. There's an original hot buzz, yeah. And then they did a remake with uh owen wilson and uh, who's he, who's the other actor?

Speaker 1: 17:35

sean bean. Sean bean, not sean bean. Uh geez, what's his name? It's the same guy who was in uh shauna the dead. It's that duo. They have three movies that they're in together oh hot, oh, oh, hop.

Speaker 2: 17:51

No, what am I thinking of? Never mind owen wilson's not in hot fuzz. Yeah, yeah, you're right, that's not based in the 70s. Simon pegg and nick frost. Yeah, that's based in like rural. Yeah, are you thinking?

Speaker 1: 18:05

of Starsky and Hutch I'm thinking of.

Speaker 2: 18:07

Starsky and Hutch.

Speaker 1: 18:08

Dude, that's so bad. What the heck? Starsky and Hutch, I love that movie with Owen Wilson and Ben Stiller Hot buzz.

Speaker 2: 18:19

Hot buzz. I guess they say the fuzz in the movie. That's why I said the movie's called Hot Pants.

Speaker 1: 18:29

Is Will Ferrell in that movie.

Speaker 2: 18:31

Will Ferrell.

Speaker 1: 18:32

Yeah, I know Snoop Dogg's in it If he does.

Speaker 2: 18:34

He just does a cameo. He's not a character. Yeah, yeah, snoop Dogg's a character yeah, but I can't think of who else is in it.

Speaker 1: 18:43

It I bet you money that they kind of had connections from old school to make that movie, because will ferrell was in that snoop dog was in old school. Yeah, maybe I don't know as himself, by the way, we'll talk about that, okay, so anyways, I don't even know how to say this, so, chugi.

Speaker 2: 19:08

Chugi.

Speaker 1: 19:09

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 19:11

Gen Alpha no.

Speaker 1: 19:15

Oh, do you know what Chugi means?

Speaker 2: 19:17

No, because I don't even know what it's from.

Speaker 1: 19:19

It's Gen.

Speaker 2: 19:20

Z oh Gen Z.

Speaker 1: 19:21

Okay, it's used to describe something that's uncool or out of date, especially for millennials, like they're describing millennials as choogy oh wow, dude, I did not realize this, but the youngest people from gen z are what?

Speaker 2: 19:40

13 years old now.

Speaker 1: 19:41

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 19:42

That's crazy.

Speaker 1: 19:44

Crazy Mm-hmm. All right, here's one Cool beans.

Speaker 2: 19:50

Cool beans. That, my friends, is millennials.

Speaker 1: 19:54

That, my friend, is incorrect. Are you kidding?

Speaker 2: 19:57

me. Yeah, what is it? It's Gen X.

Speaker 1: 20:01

No, yeah, that's our thing, we made it our thing because of hot rod. Cool beans is a super old phrase really. Yeah, okay, a quirky way to say cool in the 80s and 90s okay, that's not.

Speaker 2: 20:17

Uh, because millennials are in the 90s and most of the 80s gen x were teenagers in the 80s.

Speaker 1: 20:24

Sure, but that's still a phrase for them. Doesn't mean that during that time it was used by that generation. I relent, okay, cool, good Cat's pajamas.

Speaker 2: 20:41

Baby boomers.

Speaker 1: 20:43

Silent generation. Are you kidding me? What does it mean?

Speaker 2: 20:48

Uh, like that's really cool or that's really sweet, that's the best thing ever. Pretty much, yeah, okay.

Speaker 1: 20:57

You're not saying how it's described here, but you know how is it described. It didn't? What the heck. You're just over there just saying stuff. I am just saying stuff. All right, question five that slaps, that slaps.

Speaker 2: 21:13

Yes, it's either Millennial or Gen Z, which one is?

Speaker 1: 21:18

it though.

Speaker 2: 21:18

I'm going to say Gen Z.

Speaker 1: 21:23

Correct. All right, and what does it mean? Uh, that's awesome. Yeah, a current phrase to describe anything that hits hard in a good way see, even that's slang.

Speaker 2: 21:37

They're using slang to explain slang. All right, because hits hard is the millennial version of that slaps, yeah what?

Speaker 1: 21:47

the heck what goes hard, it goes hard, yeah, yeah. Question six talk to the hand talk to the hand yep gen x correct there we go, and what does it mean?

Speaker 2: 22:00

like don't talk to me anymore. I'm done with you pretty much. Yeah, um, you just wrote down slang and then you just lifted up to your own interpretation, didn't you?

Speaker 1: 22:17

I I used a site that kind of gave it to me and I very quickly put this together, okay, okay, as a last minute game. So that's why some of these aren't the best descriptions on them. I gotcha um yolo that is millennials correct and what does it mean?

Speaker 2: 22:36

you only live once all right.

Speaker 1: 22:38

And who came up with the phrase?

Speaker 2: 22:40

what, yeah, bonus, bonus I don't know, I have no idea who came up with that phrase. The rapper drake? Oh, that's not, that's cool question eight.

Speaker 2: 22:53

We have 10 total, by the way okay all right, uh, daddy, oh daddy, oh yep, that's gonna be the silent generation, correct? Yeah, and it's like, it's just like a slang it's funny because it's slang and then it describes the slang with slang for man or dude, daddy, oc, that's from all those gangster movies, daddy OC. I'm your daddy OC, alright, so Now play that saxophone before I slap you across the face.

Speaker 1: 23:35

What a Question. Nine no cap.

Speaker 2: 23:39

No cap, that is Gen Z.

Speaker 1: 23:43

That is in fact Gen Z. That is in fact Gen Z.

Speaker 2: 23:46

And I think it means like for real.

Speaker 1: 23:51

Are you serious? Yeah, pretty much. It means like you're not lying.

Speaker 2: 23:57

Yeah, so so would cap mean you are lying? Yes, cap, you're capping, you're capping, you're capping.

Speaker 1: 24:06

No cap Quit slapping, all right, and then last one fat P-H-A-T Fat. That is millennial. You think that?

Speaker 2: 24:17

is millennial Gen X. That's Gen X.

Speaker 1: 24:18

No, we're going to take your first one. Come on, man, it is Gen X and it means you're cool. Yeah, pretty much so there you go.

Speaker 2: 24:28

Can we just acknowledge that? Whoever came up with that like they weren't trying to come up with an alternative way to say you're cool, they were trying to recover from calling somebody fat.

Speaker 1: 24:40

Right.

Speaker 2: 24:40

Not over-emotional about it. Yeah, 100% insulted somebody, hundred percent insulted somebody, they insulted somebody, and then they started getting ostracized by other people and so they're like no, no no, no, no, you don't understand.

Speaker 1: 24:50

no, uh, calling you cool, uh, uh, fat with a ph. What, yeah, ph it makes the the f sound, the sound, uh, yeah, it means cool, like some kid just called his fat teacher fat.

Speaker 2: 25:10

I feel like it's a, but I feel like it's like a rap crew from the 80s that was overweight, Was like we're fat but we're cool, so we're fat with a pH, so it's fat with a pH baby. That sounds like a very 80s rapper thing to do.

Speaker 1: 25:29

Let's bring that phrase back.

Speaker 2: 25:31

Fat or 80s rappers.

Speaker 1: 25:34

Let's bring back 80s rappers, all of it. Fat 80s rappers that's the new slang Fat 80s rappers but with an F Fat 80s rappers. No, they're not cool Nice. But with an f fat 80s? No, they're not cool nice not cool fat men. That was a good game.

Speaker 2: 25:50

Thank you, I appreciate it you know, after all the times that I've talked about how I don't have an applause, you have an applause. I still haven't downloaded an applause oh, do I have one no I don't dang, all right, I'm gonna.

Speaker 1: 26:05

Okay, just pick. No, I don't Dang All right. Okay, just pick a color here. You don't know what any of these do Purple.

Speaker 2: 26:09

Hello Zuko here. Hey, it's Zuko.

Speaker 2: 26:17

What happened to Zuko?

Speaker 1: 26:21

Mine was funnier. What was yours?

Speaker 2: 26:25

Oh yeah, that was pretty funny. Yeah, that's all right. No, you convinced me Like that was funny, force run. I pressed the wrong button.

Speaker 1: 26:41

All right, we're stalling.

Speaker 2: 26:42

All right, you want to get into this main topic.

Speaker 1: 26:44

Let's get into the main topic. Are you ready? You want to get into this main topic? Let's get into the main topic. Are you ready? Yep.

Speaker 2: 26:52

The reason why we're being funny is because we're talking about. All right, imagine it's Friday night, the setting sun of a summer evening. What year? 2009. 2009. No, no, 2006. There you go. All right, you've been riding around on your bike all day playing with your friends, and everyone's parents have agreed to your friends coming over to your house for a sleepover Summer party. You all gather around the TV with sodas and pizza and you pop in your favorite DVD to kick off your Friday night all-nighter. Tonight we're talking about slapstick comedy.

Speaker 1: 27:42

So, tyler, this is your transition transition into slapstick comedy movies.

Speaker 2: 27:49

Yeah, I could have done better on that intro, but that's okay, I think you did perfectly, oh perfectly dumb, all right, so this goes without saying, but Hot Rod was a great movie Is that how we're going to get into this.

Speaker 1: 28:11

Let's get into it. Let's just get into it. Hot Rod, seriously Hot Rod, hot Rod. I think that that's. I'm the only one who parties. I think that this is kind of what spurred us wanting to do this topic is we were just talking about Hot Rod and how we haven't talked about Hot Rod on this podcast.

Speaker 2: 28:34

Yeah, we haven't given it. Our review, our review, our two cents.

Speaker 1: 28:39

Our two cents Bonus points in the comments, if you can tell us what that is and you'll level up.

Speaker 2: 28:48

Anyways, yeah, so Hot Rod, it's a movie. The main, or the star, if you will, is Andy Samberg, comedian, and Will Arnett. And Will Arnett, oh yeah, you're right.

Speaker 1: 29:01

Yeah, will Arnett, he's not the star, he's in it, though. Yeah.

Speaker 2: 29:04

There's actually a lot of SNL characters. But SNL character actors, characters I should, yeah, I should say actors.

Speaker 1: 29:13

There's a lot of snl actors but like not at the time this movie came out not a lot of huge names like I don't think that like andy sandberg, or all the lonely island guys, or bill hater, who's also in this movie yeah, you know what I mean. Uh were all that big of people at the time. I think them doing stuff like the lonely island music and hot rod really started to push them forward to be bigger you know what I mean yeah, but I mean, well, it did have some big names, like ian mcshane.

Speaker 2: 29:48

It plays the stepfather.

Speaker 1: 29:49

Yeah, that's true, but name something that he is in before Hot Rod.

Speaker 2: 29:55

He is in Now I can't think Exactly After Hot Rod. I bet you, if I click on his name I can look at things that he was in before.

Speaker 1: 30:06

Hot Rod, but he was the continental manager in john wick.

Speaker 2: 30:11

Yeah, he was also blackbeard and pirates of the caribbean yeah, all after hot rod yeah, he, uh. Oh. No, that was after hot rod too. I was about to say the hercules with dwayne johnson but he, uh, he played merlin, no, or was he? Like. No, he didn't like the guy. I can't remember what his name was, though.

Speaker 1: 30:32

But he's like the guy who ends up being oh I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, not Merlin.

Speaker 2: 30:39

Why did I say Merlin.

Speaker 1: 30:40

I don't know what am I thinking of where it was, though. There is a King Arthur movie where it's like Merlin was not really a magician. He just stood in the right places to make it look like he was shooting fireballs and summoning them, but it was really just like a siege behind him. Are you talking about the last legion? Maybe?

Speaker 2: 30:58

I don't know, but it was that kind of stuff where, like no, I mean that happened in the hercules movie like it looked like there was mystical, magical things happening. But they explain away, right, right.

Speaker 1: 31:12

But yeah, that character's name was not merlin, okay, I'm, I'm, I'm being dumb right now is all, ignore me.

Speaker 2: 31:18

I forgive you, thank you I can't remember is snow white and the huntsman before, after, that's after, that's after. You're right. So you're right, there's not really anything. That's like a big thing before Hot Rod.

Speaker 1: 31:33

I'm not saying that he wasn't in anything before Hot Rod. Yeah, I feel like a lot of these people. Not because of Hot Rod, but after Hot Rod got bigger. Yeah, I remember he was in. He played like in a season of American Horror Story. I think that was the only thing I saw him in after Hot Rod for the longest time.

Speaker 2: 31:54

This says that he was in the Curse of the Black Pearl. That can't be right.

Speaker 1: 32:01

Maybe as a different pirate, or maybe as a background character. Maybe he was Blackbeard in the back of somewhere, maybe as his pitcher.

Speaker 2: 32:16

That's weird, though that's what I'm saying. Like I don't see him in his thing. It says he's in the movie, but I don't see him in the cast list maybe.

Speaker 1: 32:21

Maybe they put the wrong, maybe it's just like a error. Yeah on, are you on imdd? I am okay.

Speaker 2: 32:29

So Google's wrecking it Anyways, yeah, so, but Isla Fisher, she didn't really do anything before that. That was super big.

Speaker 1: 32:41

What did she do after Hot Rod? I know who you're talking about. What was the big thing that she was in? That was Rod's girlfriend, right, it was really-.

Speaker 2: 32:52

Wedding Crashers, wed crashers, wedding yep, which was before hot rod. Dang it, man. I am oh for oh, two for um. What seat now?

Speaker 1: 33:01

I'm three, three you know well, you had a lot of those questions right earlier, so you can count.

Speaker 2: 33:06

Yeah, maybe that. Maybe a minute will even out. She was in tag. Was she the news reporter? Yeah, she's in the great gatsby was she the news reporter?

Speaker 1: 33:20

yeah, how many movies did you play as a news reporter? Now you see me three. Oh, she was the. She's the. The she's the girl. Now you see me, she's the. She's one of the four horsemen. Yep, that's a good. Those are good movies.

Speaker 2: 33:35

Danny McBride was, I feel like. Did he have something before Hot Rod?

Speaker 1: 33:39

I don't think that he did, Probably not it's hard to gauge because Hot Rod came out when we were young, yeah, and so I feel like right around the time Hot Rod came out was when I was really paying attention to more than just the movie as a movie, yeah, and you know the people who are in them and everything like that.

Speaker 2: 33:59

Yes, I get what you're saying, good. Okay, a lot of people that I think are funny and stuff that they're in. I mean andy sandberg, bill hater. I think danny mcbride's funny, yeah, chris parnell, will arnett? Uh, chester tam, which one's chester tam? He plays. He plays the asian guy trying to get into their crew. Yeah, but can you do this? So what do you think? Can I be a part of your crew? Do you like what you see? No, no, I don't. Oh, man, dude, you were a terrible stuntman.

Speaker 1: 34:42

What I said? I said you were a terrible stuntman. What You're a terrible stuntman.

Speaker 2: 34:51

No, I heard you. It was just really mean. Oh man, yeah, but the problem is that Hot Rod, it's mostly slapstick. There is a little bit of crude humor in it, yeah, but for the most part it's pretty funny just because of how outlandish it is.

Speaker 1: 35:13

But a lot of these actors, the other movies that they're in, they are crude, they are more crude, yeah, you know, than hot rod is like the same way with, like, the musical group that all the people who made hot Rod. You know the three main guys. You know? Yeah, Don't listen to Lonely Island. You know what I mean? Yeah.

Speaker 2: 35:34

Yeah, Well, that's like the same with Danny McBride, Like outside of Hot Rod. I wouldn't really let my middle school kid watch any of his movies. You know, they're just all so mature.

Speaker 1: 35:49

Sensei, is there a magical karate move that would make somebody crap their pants?

Speaker 2: 35:55

I'm not going to lie to you, Rod. There is such a move, but you're not prepared for it.

Speaker 1: 36:00

Let's get back to our meditation. Yeah, we could do that. Well, you could show me this move that would make somebody crap their pants. Well, that didn't work. I told you, rod.

Speaker 2: 36:12

I told you yeah, you did tell me and you lied because I definitely didn't crap my pants I'm gonna go home now, not because it worked.

Speaker 1: 36:26

I don't remember how I'll quote that was pretty close to to it, pretty close to it, pretty close. Also, let's talk about the fun. Probably one of the funniest scenes in cinema ever is in this movie, in my opinion, every single time it happens it's the dumbest thing, but it makes me laugh every single time, and it's when Rod is falling down the mountain.

Speaker 2: 36:50

Yeah, after a long and painful fall down the side of a mountain like why does that keep go?

Speaker 1: 36:58

it keeps going yeah and it's just. It doesn't stop being funny. I've seen this movie so many times, yeah, and it is never not funny. It is quite humorous, in all honesty, probably one of the funniest things I've seen in film period. And it's just a dude falling down a mountain. Slapstick comedy at its purest form.

Speaker 2: 37:25

Yes, oh, I need to mention this slightly quickly, but jorma tacone, the one of the three lonely boys, lonely boys, lonely island, he's in a. He's in an indie film called kong fury okay, we got to talk about kong fury.

Speaker 1: 37:44

Okay, all right, I'll wait. Let me make sure I'm going to double check my notes. The reason I bring it up is because, oh, I'm not, I'm thinking of something different, sorry, go ahead, talk about Kong Fury.

Speaker 2: 37:57

Kong Fury. It's like a 45-minute movie, mm-hmm, it's very short.

Speaker 1: 38:03

Okay, yeah, I know what you're talking about.

Speaker 2: 38:04

But it is very funny, mm, it is very funny and it I mean it doesn't have anything lewd but it does have language, and it is gory, kind of gory, like the comedic over-the-top punching, ripping stuff.

Speaker 1: 38:22

Is this the thing?

Speaker 2: 38:22

that was just made for YouTube. Yeah, they just posted it on YouTube. They didn't like release it in theaters or make it to where you could buy it or anything. It's just on YouTube. You can go watch it, but it is super funny. But he plays Hitler in that movie. Jerome does, or Jorma, I guess Jorma, yeah, jorma. But they're coming out with Kung Fury 2.

Speaker 1: 38:47

Nice. Does he play Hitler in that one as well?

Speaker 2: 38:50

Yes, he comes back.

Speaker 1: 38:52

It's like this neon hyper futuristic, just awesome YouTube video.

Speaker 2: 39:02

I forgot to mention also, arnold Schwarzenegger is in number two Dang and so is Michael.

Speaker 1: 39:11

Fassbender, so the first one did so well. They got huge names for the second one.

Speaker 2: 39:14

Yeah, and the Hoff is in both, david.

Speaker 1: 39:20

Hasselhoff does a song for the first one, so I've never seen it, but I need to sit down and watch it. I know what you're talking about, though.

Speaker 2: 39:24

There's a song, it's called Action.

Speaker 1: 39:27

Action. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Does he say lights, camera first?

Speaker 2: 39:32

No, it's like no, no, no, the name of the song is True Survivor.

Speaker 1: 39:39

He just says action in it.

Speaker 2: 39:40

He's like we need some action If we're going to get our face away from you. Yeah, it is a very catchy song, but action. The movie is quite funny. Maybe you and I, maybe we should watch. It sounds good to me and uh, watch the first one and then, when the second one comes out, watch that. But uh, I don't. Actually it doesn't have a release date yet. I don't think I've watched the. They did like a 10 minute like spoiler of the movie, oh yeah, but it I don't see a release date for it. But in okay, so kung fury. The idea is that, yeah, it's a kind of a 80s 8-bit themed world, so all the technology is supposed to be real, futuristic-y.

Speaker 1: 40:30

Yeah, it's all 90s and 80s technology, 90s and 80s, aesthetic but futuristic 90s or 80s.

Speaker 2: 40:38

It's like 90s, 80s steampunk Not steampunk. It's like 90s, 80s cyberpunk, yep. And in this it's a cop, like a detective beat cop, who is trying to solve crimes, but he's also like a master of martial arts.

Speaker 2: 40:59

And he's called Kung Fury, and you know they do the classic trope of he doesn't have a partner, he works solo, and the police department tells him he has to have a partner. He works solo and the police department makes him, tells him he has to have a partner. He's like no, I work alone. But the villain? He finds out that the villain is Hitler and so he's got to go back in time to kill Hitler to stop him from doing what happened, which is like a robots released and attacking their present or whatever. But isn't there?

Speaker 1: 41:30

like a T-Rex, their present or whatever, but uh, isn't there like a T-Rex in there at some point? Yeah, so we're getting there. So don't ruin it, let's just watch it. Okay, all right.

Speaker 2: 41:37

But the funny part is to go back in time. He can't. There's no time travel. Oh okay, he cannot travel back in time. But one of the characters is a hacker and he said I can hack you back into time. So they throw a keyboard on the ground and he jumps on it and rides it like a skateboard through a computer, ones and zeros that is called binary for you non-dorks yeah. Yeah, they write it through it. Yeah, yeah, computer binary and he hacks back in time. It is funny.

Speaker 1: 42:16

So little disclaimer. It's like it's meant to be over-the-top action. It's meant to like kind of give it's like a love letter to the 80s, 70s, 80s, over-the-top action films. Yes, but it's not slapstick, oh, it's just more going at the ridiculousness of what those movies used to be.

Speaker 2: 42:39

Yeah, okay.

Speaker 1: 42:41

Wow, so I'm sorry for crushing your hopes and dreams.

Speaker 2: 42:45

Fine, I thought it was slapstick.

Speaker 1: 42:50

Is that why it's on your list? No, or?

Speaker 2: 42:52

do you just want to talk about it? I mean, it just is action comedy. There you go, Action comedy. What does Hot Rods say? What is Hot Rods' genres Slapstick? Is that really what it is? Yes, there you go. Comedy drama according to this.

Speaker 1: 43:11

There is, I mean, I guess, drama in the sense that it's over-dramatized for comedy effect.

Speaker 2: 43:19

Babe, babe, babe, babe, wait, babe, babe, wait Babe. Babe.

Speaker 1: 43:27

And we never see him again in that movie.

Speaker 2: 43:28

Yeah.

Speaker 1: 43:31

I kind of wish he would like for the the sake of the comedy moment got hit by a car or something yeah, that would have been funny oh man, some say he's still saying hey, babe, wait to this very day yeah, he's still in his.

Speaker 2: 43:44

He's just still there, or whatever it was. It was a corvette, right?

Speaker 1: 43:47

no, I think he was in the middle of the street because you remember they're at the restaurant or they're kind of eating at some sort of outside diner.

Speaker 2: 43:56

No, he's in his car.

Speaker 1: 43:59

No, she gets in a car and drives off, right.

Speaker 2: 44:01

She gets out of his car she does get and then gets into another car and leaves and he's just sitting there in his car going yeah, it's funny, but another great quotable moment of that uh movie this is totally my hat. They wreck a guy's rv trailer and he comes out he's like my trailer and then, uh, mcbride's character randomly walks up and starts beating the guy right, what did?

Speaker 1: 44:31

what did he say? He's like he says you're gonna bring the devil out of me today yeah, he's like I go to church every sun.

Speaker 2: 44:37

There's some curse words in it, but he says I go to church every sunday, you're gonna bring the demons out of me oh man so I've been drinking green tea all day so I know we keep sitting here quoting the movie.

Speaker 1: 44:50

So real quick, a quick synopsis of this film. The entire point of it is Rod, the main character, wants to become a stuntman. That's his life's dream. So he does really cruddy neighborhood stunts. Yes, Just trying to feel his hobby. And he finds out. But one of the things he wants to try to do all the time is beat his stepfather in a fight.

Speaker 1: 45:17

Yes, to become a man To become a man. Yeah, yeah. And so Rod finds out that his stepdad has. It was just a bad heart, what was it? His heart was failing. His heart was failing, yeah, as it was just a bad heart. What was it? It was a heart was failing. His heart was failing, yeah. So the entire movie is him trying to raise money to get heart surgery for his stepfather so that he can then beat the crap out of him and become a man yeah, so you can finally beat him in a fight and become a man.

Speaker 2: 45:43

Yeah oh my gosh, that movie is great yep, and just for those who don't know, andy sandberg plays rod in the film who moves on to do many a film yeah, he does some stuff with uh adam sandler. These eight, yeah good uh, he's in cloudy with a chance of meatballs.

Speaker 1: 46:04

He also is in all the hotel transylvania who is he in cloudy and a chance of meatballs?

Speaker 2: 46:08

he's a main, the main character.

Speaker 1: 46:08

No, he's not.

Speaker 2: 46:09

That's Bill Hader. Oh, no, he's. You're right, I'm sorry. Hotel Transylvania.

Speaker 1: 46:15

Hotel Transylvania. He's the main guy in Hotel, like he's Selena Gomez's character's boyfriend, who, andy Samberg.

Speaker 2: 46:30

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah he's the boyfriend.

Speaker 1: 46:31

Yeah, yeah, no. And cloudy with a chance of bean balls.

Speaker 2: 46:32

He's, uh, chicken jake, or that's right, he is in it is. What's his name? Is it jack or jake? What's the character's name?

Speaker 1: 46:36

the guy who, oh no, he's baby brent brent.

Speaker 2: 46:39

It's chicken brent. No, it's baby brent. I didn't know, but at the end of the movie he becomes chicken brent yes, I need to re-watch that movie.

Speaker 1: 46:47

Brent, all right, he's the guy who got in that movie. He, he's Brent. All right, he's Brent.

Speaker 2: 46:55

In that movie. He was the guy who got famous for being the baby on being on the label of the sardine cans.

Speaker 1: 46:57

Yeah, yeah, and then he just never outlived that Uh-oh. So he's a grown man running around in a diaper going uh-oh, yep, baby.

Speaker 2: 47:08

Brent Yep. And then he gets eaten by a rotisserie chicken and he fights his way out but he keeps the rotisserie chicken as like a piece of armor and then runs around saying it's chicken Brent. Funny movie. Funny movie. Movies are fun. He's also in the TV show Brooklyn Nine-Nine. Andy Samberg is, yes, main character. Movies are fun. He's also in the TV show Brooklyn Nine-Nine. Andy Samberg is, yes, main character. Hilarious show. It says he's in Grown Ups 2.

Speaker 1: 47:36

I don't remember him in Grown Ups, I think he was like. I never saw it, but I think he's like some sort of jock or something like that. Oh, okay, it's because Adam Sandler and Andy Samberg both like started being in all the movies together after they were in like what is it? Was it Hotel Transylvania or was it that's my Boy? Both, I mean, I mean they were in those together.

Speaker 2: 47:55

I just don't remember which one came first oh, they both came out the same year so did they yeah. So all right, there you go there you go, everyone.

Speaker 1: 48:07

so we've talked about it a little bit too much, so let's move off of Hot Rod, unless you have anything else to say.

Speaker 2: 48:13

Nope, I got nothing else to say about Hot Rod.

Speaker 1: 48:17

All right, let's talk about Step Brothers. All right, let's do it. Step Brothers is, I feel, like one of those movies that just really influenced my life in a way that, like, makes me quote things. You know, I mean the same way hot rod. It doesn't make me who I am, but you quote it a lot it's the catalina wine mixer it's that darn catalina wine mixer.

Speaker 1: 48:42

So everybody like, stepbrothers is a hilarious movie, but you got to be at least 25 to watch this movie. I mean, you gotta be an adult, yeah, so at least I know you need to be old enough to be able to rent a car. Okay, then you can watch step brothers, all right, I guess. So my favorite, um favorite, quote that's not that that I can actually repeat on this on this podcast is I wouldn't call him dad, even if there's a fire today I watched my son use a bicycle as a weapon, oh man.

Speaker 1: 49:23

There's so much more room for activities.

Speaker 2: 49:27

Can we make? We put our bags together and make a bunk bed.

Speaker 1: 49:33

You're both 40 years old, I don't care what you do, so is that a yes and no? It's, uh. It's will ferrell and john c o'reilly. Yeah, which is like they did so many movies together after stepbr Brothers, because they're such a good comedy duo.

Speaker 2: 49:50

Is that true? Like they didn't start doing movies together until Step.

Speaker 1: 49:55

Brothers I think it was Step Brothers and then they did Talladega Nights, Then they did no, Talladega Nights is before Step Brothers oh, maybe Step Brothers. Either way, they were in a lot of movies together because they work great together.

Speaker 2: 50:07

Okay.

Speaker 1: 50:09

I mean, don't lie stepbrothers is a masterpiece stepbrothers is funny.

Speaker 2: 50:16

So I'm looking at, I'm looking at john c rayleigh and they're in talladega knights together. They're in stepbrothers, they're in holmes.

Speaker 1: 50:26

and yeah, is that it.

Speaker 2: 50:29

I don't know if I see anything else that Will Ferrell was in.

Speaker 1: 50:34

Anchorman oh, that's right. In Anchorman 2, john C Reilly makes a cameo as the ghost of Stonewall Jackson. Oh man, I love Anchorman movies. Ridiculous. Is that the ghost of Stonewall Jackson? No man, I love Batman movies. Ridiculous. Is that the ghost of Stonewall Jackson? No, seriously, I think that's the ghost of Stonewall Jackson.

Speaker 2: 50:59

Can we talk about a very underrated Will Ferrell movie? Just real quick. What's that? Eurovision Song Contest.

Speaker 1: 51:07

I'll let you talk about it.

Speaker 2: 51:08

I watched it like in the background but it was funny of what I saw that's the only thing I'm going to say is it's underrated, but you should go watch it.

Speaker 1: 51:17

It's funny yeah, what I saw was really funny. Eurovision song contest ya ya ding dong. Ya ya sing ya ya ding dong. We are a number one euro vision winner. We have many hits.

Stepbrothers, not as quotable as Hot Rod, but still as quotable. Yeah, that's true. Did we just become best friends? Yep, you wanna do Karate in the Garage.

Speaker 2: 52:15

Yep, yeah, man, and they're in Talladega Nights together, and in Talladega Nights that one's another quotable one. He's like hey, uh, what do you think about me winning one time?

Well, that'll ruin the flow. You know, I'm the winner and you're the guy who always comes in second place.

Speaker 2: 52:41

If you win, then I can't win. Oh yeah, you're right, I didn't think about that I'm sorry, I'm sorry, don't you put that knife in your leg, ricky Bobby.

Speaker 1: 52:49

Don't you put that leg, don't put that knife in your leg, ricky Bobby, don't you do it.

Cruise.

What was it In your voodoo magic is what he said yeah, Is it voodoo?

Speaker 2: 53:10

I mean, I know it's Scientology, but he's like your Scientology magic.

Speaker 1: 53:14

I think he says your voodoo black magic or something like that. Voodoo black magic. That's funny, but he's referring to Tom Cruise and Scientology, yes, which we talk about in episode number 26? It was in the 30s, I think it's 36.

Speaker 2: 53:31

No, you're right, yeah, 36. I don't know this is so bad, because I'm just so caught up in the moment. You know what I mean? Yeah, that's fine. I forget which episode is what.

Speaker 1: 53:45

We talk about that a lot, where it's just like we do so much with this podcast that it's I forget these numbers all the time, and I am that is a good problem to have.

Speaker 2: 53:56

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Episode 37. 37. Masking Scientology. There it is. That's pretty depressing because that was three episodes ago. It really was. We should have To be fair that was three episodes ago.

Speaker 1: 54:09

It really was. We should have To be fair. That was about a month ago. Recording.

Speaker 2: 54:14

Yeah, that's true, that is very true.

Speaker 1: 54:21

Napoleon Dynamite.

Speaker 2: 54:22

Napoleon Dynamite.

Speaker 1: 54:26

Dude. This is probably the one movie that probably influenced so many people as a nation, so many young 12 to 16 year olds, when Napoleon Dynamite came out.

Speaker 2: 54:39

Yeah.

Speaker 1: 54:39

Was incredibly influenced by this nothing movie.

Speaker 2: 54:42

Oh yeah, and I remember going and watching it in the theaters and knowing nothing about it. Like I heard Napoleon Dynamite, my friends were telling me about it. Like I heard napoleon dynamite, my friends were telling me about it before we would go see it. They just said, like the movie's called napoleon dynamite, I thought we were gonna go watch a history flick about napoleon for some reason, but then we went and watched it. I was like this has nothing to do with history and this is the greatest film I've ever seen.

Speaker 1: 55:06

This is hilarious. Yeah, me and ashley watched it recently, uh-huh, and she was like so many moments in that movie of like, wait, is this, is this what this is from? She didn't know, like when she, um, when your mom goes to college, oh yeah, she's like is that what this is from? Absolutely, and the other one is vote for pedro 100 from that movie.

Speaker 1: 55:31

Vote for pedro dude like for some reason, like I never caught on watching it until recently that uncle, uh, uncle rico, he buys the time machine, right, the quote-unquote time machine, yeah. And then they try it, it doesn't work. And then he comes around the corner and he's like I could have told you it didn't work, I didn't realize he used it, tried it himself to use it and he got hurt, which is so stupid of me, never, never, to catch that on because he's holding the ice pack to himself.

Speaker 2: 56:02

That's funny that's real funny, man. Yeah, is there anything else you want to talk about with napoleon dynamite? Do you want to talk about with Napoleon Dynamite? Do you want to give everybody just a brief summary of what Napoleon Dynamite's about? I?

Speaker 1: 56:14

don't know if I can, because it's really like a it's the best way to explain it. It's just a bunch of visual gags trying to, or just funny moments trying to stitch together to a nothing story. It's just like the life of these people. You know, Napoleon Dynamite's just a high schooler and his grandma gets hurt and so his uncle has to move in with him and it's just like him trying to be a high schooler while his awkward uncle is trying to be a con artist and then his best friend is running for you know, school president, like, yeah, the movie is hilarious though, because the way you describe it it's a nothing film and just a bunch of really awkward funny things happen throughout it yeah, there is really no one specific story straight straight storyline, like for no reason, at the beginning of the film.

Speaker 1: 57:13

It's just like Napoleon what are you going to do today? Whatever the heck I want. And then he pulls out an action figure that's tied to a piece of string and throws it off the school bus and drags this action figure from behind the school bus as it's going down the street for no reason. Like what is this movie, you know?

Speaker 2: 57:34

yeah he uh.

Speaker 1: 57:37

So the director for napoleon dynamite is uh jared hess, who directed the minecraft movie and nacho libre yep, he.

Speaker 2: 57:46

He also directed, yeah, minecraft and nacho. He also directed Thelma the Unicorn I don't know if you've seen that one Say it one more time Thelma the Unicorn.

Speaker 1: 57:56

Thelma the Unicorn. I don't know, is it like a weird indie cartoon?

Speaker 2: 58:00

Yeah, maybe Masterminds. He also directed Masterminds, I don't know, masterminds it. It's pretty funny. It has zach galifianakis in it, gotcha and I and, I think, owen wilson I keep on trying to throw his name into stuff just to try and be right real quick.

Speaker 1: 58:20

Speaking of zach galifianakis, guess what me and ashley watched last night? What did you and ashley watch last night? We watched the Muppet movie. Sorry the Muppets which one? The one from 2011 with Jason Segel in it? Oh, okay. And in that movie there's a part where Walter, which is like a new Muppet for the movie he's like the Muppets' biggest fan he's trying to convince Kermit to help him to save the Muppet studios. Okay, and he's like, but Kermit, you know, he's like Kermit's telling him no, I'm not going to help him. Yeah, he's like, but Kermit, you're my hero, You're on my watch. And he's wearing like a watch with Kermit's face on it. Yeah Well, right in that moment, I looked over at Ashley. I said you're my hero, you're on my watch. So my wallpaper on my watch for those who's not here in person right now this is a picture of my wife. My wife Is on my watch. So it was a really funny moment, it's on my watch and.

Speaker 1: 59:20

And in my heart.

Speaker 2: 59:21

Here you go, dude, so poetic.

Speaker 1: 59:24

Yeah, Check out my my poetry book coming in 2030. 2030. 2030? Yeah, it's called Slam.

Speaker 2: 59:34

Jam, slam, jam. Yeah, come on and slam. Welcome to the jam. Everybody get up. It's time to jam. Now We'll have a real good party now. Welcome to the bass jam. That's not the lyrics of that. Here's your hands. Make a chance at the space jam.

Speaker 1: 59:56

Did you say here's your hands, make a chance, all right, all right.

Speaker 2: 1:00:01

Matthew mcconaughey matthew, all right, all right, all right do you have any um slapstick comedy movies?

Speaker 1: 1:00:09

you I feel like I keep bringing them up, do you?

Speaker 2: 1:00:11

have. So there's nacho libre. Come on, Don't be crazy. Yeah, come on. I mean, come on, Don't be crazy. And then there's the. So obviously we need to talk about Nacho Libre, but then there's also all of the.

Speaker 1: 1:00:25

I feel like we don't need to. If you want us to hear us talk about Nacho Libre, we have an entire episode about Nacho Libre.

Speaker 2: 1:00:35

That's true, yeah, so not Shirley Brant.

Speaker 1: 1:00:36

But it's hilarious. It's very Napoleon Dynamite humor.

Speaker 2: 1:00:40

Yes.

Speaker 1: 1:00:41

It's great.

Speaker 2: 1:00:42

Quite humorous and then Scary Movies, 1 through 4.

Speaker 1: 1:00:47

Yeah. I have that on my list Very slapstick, very slapstick, very slapstick. But if you want to talk about the good Scary Movies, we're talking about Scary Movie 1 through 3. Okay, I don't really like Scary Movie 4 all that much much. Is that the one where they make fun of the grudge?

Speaker 2: 1:01:04

that's, uh, I think, the grudge and the ring no, because the ring is the third one. Yeah, they make fun of signs and war of the worlds and the ring and the ring on the third one.

Speaker 1: 1:01:15

Yeah, because they have.

Speaker 2: 1:01:16

Yeah you're, you're right. So Signs is number three in Grudge In the Ring. Sorry, signs in the Ring. Number four is War of the Worlds, like the Tom Cruise War of the Worlds. Yeah, and the Grudge and isn't number four when they do the Village.

Speaker 1: 1:01:40

Yes, yeah, and isn't number four when they do the village. Yes, yeah, it's so funny, it's so offensive nowadays. Yeah yeah, but the scene where she meets the little grudge boy and she starts speaking Japanese to him. But she's just calling out Japanese brands.

Speaker 2: 1:01:54

Yeah, tamahaki, toyotaishimi, dude yeah, you definitely have to be. Um, not a kid movie, it's not a kid. None of those are kid movies. They do make a lot of adult jokes, but I they are funny the first two is, to me, the funniest two yeah, because the first one is I know what you did last summer and what was it? What was screaming? I know what you did last summer and what was it?

Speaker 1: 1:02:19

what was screaming? I know what you did last summer screaming.

Speaker 2: 1:02:21

I know what you did last summer and then number two it was is mostly in a mansion.

Speaker 1: 1:02:26

I can't remember what movie, I think that that was the one where they did a lot of parody, and I don't think they did anything too specific in that one, if I remember right yeah, they made uh, they made fun of uh I think they made fun of jason in it.

Speaker 1: 1:02:46

Yeah, but as a single joke. But a lot of times they structured their movie around a specific plot. Yeah, that's true, that's the one that is, at least whenever I tried to watch it. Yeah, take my hand, take my strong. No, take my strong hand, my other one's not strong enough.

Speaker 2: 1:03:01

Yeah, he's like no, give me your other hand, I can't, it's too weak.

Speaker 1: 1:03:08

Oh my gosh.

Speaker 2: 1:03:10

Dude so funny, so that because okay, so that they're invited to a mansion, mm-hmm, and there's a murder, so it has to be Clue, because that's from Clue there wasn't a murder, it's okay.

Speaker 1: 1:03:25

The problem with Scary Movie 2 is the one I've seen the least, because you can't really find it too many places to stream it. Well, I know what we're doing after this. Yeah, seriously, I'd watch it. The movie's hilarious.

Speaker 2: 1:03:38

Heck yeah, yeah, seriously I'll. I'd watch it. The movie's hilarious. Heck yeah, uh, yeah, but there is.

Speaker 1: 1:03:41

I mean I'll have to look it up, but there's something that has to do where they're all brought into a building yeah, and it's the same cast of characters, because they were going to keep doing it with the same cast of full cast of characters from the uh, the first one and the second one, and then it just it was anna ferris and brenda who came back for the third one, and then anything going forward and and sean and marlon waynes.

Speaker 2: 1:04:08

Yeah, true, they were both in one and two right, but nothing after that.

Speaker 1: 1:04:14

Yeah, I don't think that. Yeah, they didn't. They didn't get. My understanding is because another the production company took, got rid of them as the directors, like there was a whole. Yeah, they pretty much had wrote the third movie and then they fired them and took all their jokes. Is my understanding? Yeah, there is a scene I gotta show it to you, but in the first one, when they're in the cafeteria, if you look in the background, yeah and you see all the cafeteria workers.

Speaker 1: 1:04:42

They're all monsters. Oh, really, yeah, because it was meant like there was a deleted scene where they were going through getting their food in the cafeteria and it was just a visual joke of all of them being. These cafeteria workers were nasty creatures uh-huh and they cut it out of the movie, but they are still filming that scene later on, so in the background. You've never noticed it before, but all of the cafeteria workers are monsters and gross creatures wow.

Speaker 2: 1:05:12

So this says four teens are tricked by a professor into visiting a haunted house for a school project. Just four, just four.

Speaker 1: 1:05:22

I think there's more.

Speaker 2: 1:05:23

There's more than that, for sure. That's what this says.

Speaker 1: 1:05:27

Because it's all like six of them, because there were six characters in the first one.

Speaker 2: 1:05:32

I don't know if they're all students, though.

Speaker 1: 1:05:35

Oh, I gotcha. You know what I mean, because there's Brenda. What's um brenda? What's anna ferris's character's name? It's like a y at the end cindy, cindy campbell once I got cindy. Yeah, you're right. It was crazy. I couldn't think of the first name and when I got her first name I remembered her last name from those movies. Yeah, so it was brenda c Dookie Bobby Ray.

Speaker 2: 1:05:59

And Shorty.

Speaker 1: 1:06:00

And.

Speaker 2: 1:06:00

Shorty.

Speaker 1: 1:06:03

Yeah, not Dookie. It was Shorty, there's not a Dookie.

Speaker 2: 1:06:07

There ain't no Dookie. Well, Buddy, Buddy. Yeah, it's Shorty Ray, Cindy, Brenda, Buddy, and I don't know if there's another. Did you say Bobby, oh?

Speaker 1: 1:06:21

and Megan, megan. Oh yeah, the redhead yeah.

Speaker 2: 1:06:25

And then it also has David Cross, david.

Speaker 1: 1:06:28

Cross, yeah, his character Dwight, and.

Speaker 2: 1:06:30

Tim Curry yeah, tim Curry. David Cross, chris Elliott All funny, andy Richard, I forgot that he was in it. What was andy richard?

Speaker 1: 1:06:40

he was, uh, the priest trying to do the exorcism yeah, man, geez, these are great franchise, so let's uh, I'm gonna run through some of these just as examples. All right, so we have you know scary movie like we just talked about Dumb and Dumber, dumb and Dumber yeah, you want to hear the most annoying sound in the world?

Speaker 1: 1:07:04

Yeah, let's do it Me and Ashley watched that movie. She said it's one of her most hated movies she's ever seen. She hated that movie the whole way through and I love it so much. Are you kidding me? No, she hates Dumb and Dumber with a passion. That's funny. Ace Ventura, pet detective, pet detective, the Naked Gun, okay, airplane, the Mask, you know what I mean? Come on, yeah. And then like Home Alone, home Alone, austin Powers, yep. And then like a home alone, home alone, austin Powers, yep. And then the honorable mention. And the only reason why I do mention this one is because I want to watch this movie, but I'm having trouble finding it. Okay, but it's called Kung Pao. Enter the Fist.

Speaker 1: 1:07:50

Kung Pao Enter the Fist so it is a movie that this guy took an old kung fu movie, okay and superimposed himself, green-screened himself into the movie and dubbed over it with comical stuff. Oh, I've seen it, it's really funny. The clips I've seen from it are really funny, but I've never been able to see the actual movie. So that is like a nice little honorable mention to the list.

Speaker 2: 1:08:16

It's funny because of him in the movie going, yeah, so unnecessarily, unnecessarily. Yeah, dude, it's so funny.

Speaker 1: 1:08:29

So, to close this out, I want you to, I want to talk about the top grossing slapstick comedy movies of all time. Okay, the top grossing slapstick comedy movies of all time. Okay. So I want you to guess the top three, and if you can guess any of the top three, you win the episode.

Speaker 2: 1:08:49

I'm going to say Dumb and Dumber. I'm going to say Scary Movie 2. And I want Hot Rod to be on there. Those are my three guesses.

Speaker 1: 1:09:07

Are they?

Speaker 2: 1:09:08

all wrong. They're all wrong, that's funny.

Speaker 1: 1:09:10

We're going to talk about these and you're going to be so mad. Okay, because none of these would have been what I thought were slapstick or on this list, which they are, but they aren't. So I'm going to start. I'm going to count them down, the full top 10, starting at 10, going to number one. Number 10 is Jackass 3D, okay, which that is very slapstick, but it's not scripted. Yeah, it's all pranks. Number nine I guess they want to put this in here as a whole, but the scary movie franchise as a whole. What you can't do that.

Speaker 2: 1:09:45

Yeah, that doesn't make sense.

Speaker 1: 1:09:46

Yeah, okay, but on this list that I found online, they did that. Okay, crocodile Dundee. Okay, beverly Hills Cop. Okay, beverly Hills Cop. That's number seven. Number six is Home Alone. Number five is Mrs Doubtfire what Mm-hmm? Okay, all right. Number four is the Hangover.

Speaker 2: 1:10:08

Okay, now number three, counting down With $549 million, ted, I don't even think that that's Slapstick.

Speaker 1: 1:10:24

Me neither. And then number two with $586 million the Hangover, part 2. Okay, and then number one. This list isn't correct. These numbers aren't correct at all. This is completely wrong. Good, because it says that the number one is 523 million where number two is 586 million. What so, guys? This is a lesson Don't believe everything you hear online.

Speaker 2: 1:10:56

Yeah, except for us, except us, believe us. We're the only reliable source.

Speaker 1: 1:11:02

But on this list, let's pretend that these numbers aren't correct. Okay, Number one meet the Fockers.

Speaker 2: 1:11:08

Yeah, there's no way that that's one slapstick into the number one most selling, or?

Speaker 1: 1:11:16

highest grossing. Let me let me do a very quick correction on self-correction. Yes, I respect that top grossing slapstick comedy films. This isn't grossing. This is from popularity and score popular. Jairus wants to be popular but it is a Charlie Chaplin movie called City Lights is number one in 1931 for popular Metacritic score okay, and then number two is Home Alone. Okay, and number the Pink Panther Ba-dum ba-dum bum With Steve Martin.

Speaker 2: 1:12:04

See, I would say that's slapstick. Yeah for sure. Yeah, do you know what Lilo and Stitch did?

Speaker 1: 1:12:10

Just real quick, I just had to close out Just to talk about our Just to tease people, it ended up being like $500 million or something like that.

Speaker 2: 1:12:19

No, not that high.

Speaker 1: 1:12:20

No, it's not even that For domestic. Oh, $100 million something $335 million.

Speaker 2: 1:12:28

Jeez Crazy. And it has to be from that first week Because after that first week everyone started posting about how upset they were with the whole Lilo going to foster care.

Speaker 1: 1:12:39

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 1:12:40

Sorry for spoiler for anyone. I haven't seen the movie either, but that's how upset everyone's been. They've just been posting online about how annoying that is.

Speaker 1: 1:12:49

Okay, my quick review on Lilo and Stitch. It's an okay movie. Unless you watch the original, then it's just like a monstrosity by comparison. Quick, one more statement before we close this episode out. I'm going to catch up. I'm going to catch up this weekend. Yeah, how to Train your Dragon.

Speaker 2: 1:13:09

How to Train your Dragon comes up this weekend. I'm bummed out for you because the last rodeo didn't show. It has no numbers. It'll show up. Okay, I don't think they released it. That's what I'm saying. Well, that's a bummer.
