So the wife and I do a 5k right and we're doing it cute.

0:04

So we're walking side by side the whole time.

0:07

You start together, end together, you know so you're doing it as a team right Now, at the end of the race.

0:15

Oh.

0:15

I forgot my water. Oh my God, dan, I'm in the middle of a story here.

0:20

All right, you have to wait for the end of the story, let's, so I get to the end of the race.

0:25

Ok, it was a race. Well, yeah, it's a 5k race.

0:29

Look, it says 5k, 10k right on here.

0:31

It's a race, ok, so at the end of it, I decide that I want to pull ahead without telling her what I'm doing.

0:38

I'm going to, I'm walking faster so that I can beat her time, so that when we're done with it I can tell everybody that I beat her in the 5k and then I can really dig it in and twist the knife.

0:49

So I do that. I walk ahead and I finish at least 12, 15 seconds before her.

0:55

The times come in, the race times come in.

0:58

Somehow it's got her beating me by four minutes.

1:02

Dan, four minutes.

1:04

It's not even like maybe they switched our bibs and she got the 15 seconds ahead of me.

1:09

No, no, no, it's four minutes different. It doesn't even make any sense.

1:12

Something happened that was wrong, complete bullshit.

1:16

And now, instead of beating her, which I did, I did it says I lost her by four minutes.

1:24

Can I get my water now?

1:25

Yeah, get your stupid water, because I'm not even going to do the show today.

1:28

Hey, watching, we're Dan and Tony.

1:32

Hey, watching, we're Dan and Tony, let's make watching.

1:40

Yeah, welcome to hey Watching with Dan and Tony.

1:43

I'm Dan, I'm Tony, and we like to watch movies, movies, movies, movies.

1:48

We do like to watch movies. That's an accurate statement.

1:51

More importantly, we like to be critical of movies, and this is the show where we are critical of a movie, one movie in particular.

1:57

This week, tony picked a movie for us to be critical of.

1:59

What was that movie, tony?

2:01

I honestly I think it's going to be hard because this movie pretty good, it turns out.

2:05

This was 20.

2:07

What years? It? Twenty, twenty threes, candy Cain Lane, I could remember what year it was.

2:12

Now, that was the problem. I knew it came out just a couple of weeks ago.

2:16

Eddie Murphy Still not the Eddie that I that we love and remember.

2:22

But you know it was not.

2:25

It was not too bad. This was.

2:27

This was not the worst Eddie I've ever seen.

2:30

I like him. He played depressed, really well at the beginning of the movie and that bummed me out a little bit because I was like, oh, this guy's feeling this, he knows what's going on.

2:42

But listen, this was, this was a good, not a good movie.

2:47

This was a fine movie.

2:49

Ish, you know it's dumb, but it's not that bad.

2:52

And here's what I will say right off the bat. We watched two not we, you and I, dan, me and the wife we watched two Christmas movies this week Sure, candy Cain Lane and the family switch, oh he wants the family switch?

3:08

OK we should have done the family switch that was the worst movie I have ever seen.

3:13

Wow, is that bad. It was infuriating how bad that movie was and the whole time we're like, fuck, I picked the wrong movie, this is the one we should have done.

3:23

This is incredible. I was reading about hate watching.

3:29

If you like hate watching, leave us. Leave us a thumbs up or leave a comment or subscribe.

3:35

That helps us grow hate watching which we have never, done so it would be a fun change of pace.

3:43

Well, just just on a footnote, we have over 500 views on the last, the legend of Foggy Mountain.

3:50

The algorithm made a decision to throw us a bone and let some people show up.

3:56

People are talking about this movie. It's terrible and people, people want to talk about it.

4:02

Well, just one other. One other quick thing on Foggy Mountain there was that truly soda pop in there and I was like is that a real thing.

4:09

I looked it up, it's a real thing. Real thing, oh wow, it is a real thing.

4:12

Ok, real thing.

4:13

So then I was like, well, let me see if I can find anything why they had truly up their butts in that movie, right?

4:20

Sure, yeah, I found one dude who one one like a tick tocker influencer, and they had sent him like a gift package, truly, soda and and a whole bunch of their drinks and then what to pair the drinks with while you were watching the movie, and like a map, and like this whole thing, yes, this whole gigantic promotion that they did, you know one guy that you can find $5,000 for this one dude to like.

4:55

he put a little tent in his, in his apartment where he watched the movie.

5:00

Maybe he had a girlfriend, I don't know.

5:02

Probably not. Let's be real.

5:04

But I just thought that was so funny, that's it, and so I was like, ok, what I'm going to do is I'm going to go on eBay, I'm going to find somebody that won this thing and then ate the candy, and then you know, here's what I got.

5:15

Yeah, there is nothing on eBay for.

5:19

Please don't destroy. There is like you could buy like a like a bootleg download of the movie in like some weird way, like I need to do that because it's on Peacock.

5:31

Everybody just watch it with ads, you're fine, and then there was a British or maybe a European movie poster.

5:39

actual printed movie poster Great.

5:41

But, but more probably, if you search that, the poor boys, please don't destroy Nothing.

5:46

Nothing. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no no signed autograph.

5:50

photo of the. Please don't you know, we went to the premiere.

5:53

We met the please don't destroy guys and they signed our football.

5:56

Nothing, nothing. These guys have no footprint Because it's a sport they probably are very ineffective at, but yeah, so if you're about a big, please don't destroy.

6:09

Collector.

6:11

Collector. Yeah, I don't know, you're out of luck.

6:14

Sorry, you have to start the trend yourself.

6:17

So all that. So leave us a thumbs up if you're so inclined.

6:20

This will be a three out of five stars.

6:24

That's what it is.

6:25

Yeah, right, we could just start the show, go three out of five stars and move on.

6:29

There's going to be people that are going to like it more than three stars.

6:32

Maybe go up to three and a half or four.

6:34

There's going to be people that go down to two families and children, I assume.

6:38

I think that'll push your needle higher, I think.

6:41

It's interesting. So I went on Rotten Tomatoes and I was like let's see where it's the critics and audiences, about 45 percent.

6:50

Yeah, that that makes perfect sense for me.

6:52

There's people that are very angry because, because they minimize Jesus, I think at the end I think they say, no, it's in the middle, because, oh, it's in the middle.

7:05

There, I don't even remember who's talking. Eddie Murphy is talking to someone and he's like, talking about the meaning of Christmas, it must be to Jillian Bell when she's like what's the meaning of Christmas?

7:13

And he's like, unless you want to go the religious route, and they both kind of laugh as if that's nonsense.

7:19

Yeah, so I mean I can understand why you might be offended by that.

7:24

I guess.

7:24

So there are some of the reviewers that were very happily one starring it because of the blast on Jesus, and then a lot of people are just like it's kind of weird, it's kind of a little longer than it should be.

7:35

It is longer than it should be, I agree.

7:38

Yeah, and I'll say just at the start, not super funny, you know I mean legend of Foggy Mountain had I thought funny are things that I laughed a lot more at in general Sure.

7:51

But at the end, when it got heartfelt, I liked it.

7:54

And Eddie Murphy's, like you said, he's a really good actor.

7:58

He is a good actor and that's what kind of saves it a little bit for me, because he should be funnier in it.

8:06

Sure, I think there are moments which he specifically probably could have pushed the humor a little bit, but you know he wasn't.

8:15

I don't know he's not in the mood, I don't know.

8:18

But he's a good actor. So when, when the emotional turn comes, you feel it.

8:23

Yeah, you feel it, because he's a real actor and he's acting and you know it's just a big difference from last week where there was zero acting but more jokes.

8:31

So it just depends on what you want in your movies, I guess.

8:34

Well, you mean Foggy Mountain. I think we have a movie in between, foggy Mountain.

8:37

Do we have a movie in between? I know we did.

8:42

Last week replicas and that movie was funnier than both movies put together.

8:47

So hilarious, hilarious. Oh, replicas was good.

8:52

Let me say real quickly in defense of the movie and now I'm going to get us canceled as well.

8:58

So I apologize. I don't think they're saying that.

9:01

They're saying bad, negative things about Jesus and Christmas.

9:06

I think that what they're saying is that we've kind of moved away from that as a society and Christmas is now about money and not so much about the religious part of it.

9:17

I think that's what they were saying. I don't think they're saying Christmas shouldn't be those things.

9:20

I think they're just saying that that's not what we have turned it into.

9:25

Well, I have to say, a large part of Christmas, like my growing up Not my, my, my existence but nativity scenes were a thing for sure, and I like.

9:39

Growing up we went to church twice a year.

9:42

We went on Christmas and we went on Easter and that's it.

9:46

So I'm not a good person, I will admit that, but on Christmas we would always take part in the whole retent.

9:55

They do the retelling and they would cast the kids, and so I did that every year growing up.

9:59

So I'm with you. I'm with you.

10:02

But it's like I don't think I've seen an activity scene in, you know, in the wild here in California in years.

10:10

I I want we wouldn't. It's interesting that we did this movie because we were walking.

10:14

This week I remember we were walking, we went for a walk and a place that was pretty well decorated and 90 percent of the decorations are those blow up things.

10:25

Oh sure, I don't know. Apparently that's a thing here, because in Minnesota I almost never saw that.

10:30

But here the majority of decorations is just things.

10:34

We just throw them in the yard and they blow up on their own.

10:38

That's. I guess it's like the easiest thing to do, but it's just interesting because none of them like there are no nativity scenes.

10:45

There's not. You don't go to someone's yard and they've got the baby Jesus in the back.

10:48

When I was growing up that was everywhere.

10:51

Every street corner had a big old nativity scene.

10:53

So it's interesting.

10:57

With the comment that they're making. Considering this, this movie takes place in El Segundo is pretty obvious, yep, yeah.

11:04

You know, they're very accurate.

11:06

I'm sure there are other places in the country where there's nativity scenes everywhere and everyone's got the baby.

11:10

Jesus and and they love it and it's wonderful and that's why you know, that's that's what.

11:17

That's what the a lot of people, a certain portion of the United States, is fighting against is the diversity of us all getting to do our own thing, our own way how we want to do it, and I like that everybody doing their own thing, their own way, how they want to do or seem to work a little better.

11:34

Makes it more interesting.

11:36

So yes, two hours and one second. So two hours and one second.

11:40

They just, they just needed to get over that edge. Roll one extra second of credits, please.

11:46

We meet Eddie, who's playing, Chris who work, who lives on Candy Cane Lane.

11:53

It's a street that they battle it out every Christmas.

11:56

For who is who's the best display in the?

12:00

art. Now I'm going to ask a question. Yes, this is a real thing.

12:03

Yeah, sort of Right Like well, absolutely, candy Cane Lane is the thing that I've heard of here, and I do believe it's in El Segundo right.

12:14

Could be that, I don't know. Ok, I didn't do the research that I should have, but I think this is loosely based on a real street in LA.

12:22

I'm pretty sure.

12:24

Yeah, probably that's it.

12:27

I can. This I can say is that I think where I grew up, at Costa Mesa, I think there was a Candy Cane Lane and OK, all right, that I mean it wasn't a battle royale, but people you know that was a particular place.

12:41

Right. Yeah, I don't think it's a competition necessarily in real life, but they jack it out.

12:47

And we also have those halls, baby.

12:50

We also had a guy that built gigantic displays using the peanuts characters on his lawn wood cutouts and each year it grew and grew and became bigger and then he would have Santa Claus there, and it was.

13:04

It was a huge thing in the neighborhood.

13:06

You know like oh, what will he have this year?

13:09

You know like OK, and that is.

13:13

I love that. I do we always.

13:16

We used to go, you know, because I don't know if that's a thing here, I assume it is go Christmas lights looking right.

13:22

You just drive around, you find neighborhoods that you really like.

13:24

I love that. That's a real treat.

13:27

Yeah, it's wonderful. So he's one of these guys.

13:29

He's working in the shop. He only does woodwork, they say, which is interesting.

13:34

He's like I carved all this myself. And you look at all this stuff and you're like, well, maybe you maybe use your wood shop to make it all.

13:40

You didn't carve it all.

13:43

He's yeah, but does any of it light up?

13:47

Here's my biggest problem with his law display.

13:51

Yeah, I think it lights, but he's not the big winner.

13:54

Well, I know, I know, but he's he complains about not winning, but I'm like all all of the competitions happen at night and all of your things are just made out of wood.

14:03

I think he lights them up too. I think, Still, I don't know, that's not going to look as fun as something that's like you know, lit up and all exciting.

14:12

I mean that's the other thing. Is they they?

14:14

His setup is not the best setup necessarily.

14:17

You know it's like it's good looking, but you know it's like not.

14:22

Yeah, he's not winning. If I was the judge, he's not winning I would say, hey, nice, try, maybe next year do something more festive.

14:29

See you later.

14:30

Yeah, so we meet the neighbor who does all the blow up things in his yard.

14:36

There's about a million of them, and it's Ken Marino who I adore.

14:41

Yeah, he runs out there playing at Bruce. You're like, ok, this is a guy we know is going to, going to do the neighborly thing, but the great thing, and that's a couple of positives about this movie.

14:51

Why I like that is Eddie Murphy's family dynamic is great, just great.

14:58

And here's the thing, tim, the family switch.

15:01

Not that we watch this and I won't compare this movie to family switch the whole time, because it's so much better the family dynamic in that movie is a catastrophe.

15:09

It is horrible.

15:11

And the whole setup of that movie is that the family needs to switch places to learn how to live with each other or whatever.

15:18

But they're fine, they're pretty much totally fine.

15:20

This family should have been in the other movie so they could learn how to learn about each other.

15:27

It's just interesting.

15:29

Wait. The Eddie Murphy family needs to learn about each other.

15:32

Yeah, because that's kind of how the movie is. Eddie Murphy is kind of selfish and he's doing no.

15:36

Now I'm spoiling the end of this movie. He has to learn the lesson that he needs to do this for the kids, and that's generally what a swapping movie does is they put each other and the family from the family switch.

15:48

They're all rich white people. One of them's like a genius math prodigy, one of them is she's going to go to the national team for the women's soccer.

15:57

The mom is getting a promotion and the dad is.

16:00

It's like everyone has perfect lives.

16:03

And then they're like whoa, we better swap them.

16:05

It's ridiculous. So this movie, real movie, love it.

16:09

Continue. I apologize.

16:11

So we got the young daughter, I think her name is Holly.

16:14

They all have Christmas names, which they do a good joke on it later on, because they don't really hit the names really hard.

16:21

So when they say all their names and realize they're all sort of and that's what's nice about it is they say all the names and then the youngest daughter goes wait, we're all named after Christmas things.

16:32

And the older brother kind of breaks the fourth wall.

16:35

He's like you're just realizing that now and, as the audience, I think most of us are just realizing it and it's a beautiful joke.

16:42

Really nicely done.

16:45

Brother's Nick, the middle daughter I can't remember what her name was.

16:50

Maybe her name was Mary.

16:51

Maybe it was Mary. It's like that so when they do three quarters of the way through the movie, do that joke.

16:58

You're just like, oh my God, that was good, that was good you got me.

17:01

And it's really nice because he's got this nice connection with the younger daughter and he's kind of on the outs with the other two because the other two are wanting to find their own space and we're like, well, there's the movie.

17:14

They're going to have to use their special skills to sort of bring the family together.

17:18

This movie does a good job of that.

17:20

It doesn't do a great job, it doesn't knock out of the park, but it at least tries.

17:24

I feel like the majority of movies we do there's a very clear setup and then they just go away from it and this movie's like no, yeah, we understand and we'll try to do it, you know.

17:35

Good for them. This movie understands what it's trying to do and gets three out of five stars of doing all those things.

17:42

And so you're like thank you for trying, thank you for at least understanding what you're supposed to be doing.

17:48

Thanks for understanding how to make a movie.

17:50

I really appreciate it.

17:52

Honestly, this is my Christmas gift to you, Dan.

17:54

It's a real movie that we can watch and still make fun of it, because there's still plenty of stuff to make fun of.

18:02

Okay, boom, let's say boom, the kid plays tuba.

18:06

So we're like, oh, so he's going to do something tuba or music related in the finale.

18:10

Excellent, also some good jokes about the tuba, which.

18:15

I don't feel like that's an.

18:16

Eddie Murphy's just making fun of tuba players and I was like, oh that, careful that could be offensive to people.

18:22

But it's pretty nice, he's just. My favorite joke is like he's talking about bands, Like have you ever heard anyone introduce a tuba player?

18:29

And now on tuba, and then they introduce them.

18:31

No, Nobody cares about tuba players.

18:33

It's great.

18:34

We really need a movie where Eddie Murphy just he doesn't have to drive the car and he could just fricking, just blast people.

18:45

Yeah, yeah, we do.

18:48

Okay, boom, he goes to work, he gets laid off, he works in plastics and they give him a fleece and he does a whole fleece bit which it was like okay.

18:57

Yeah, it was fine. It was fine. Who is the?

19:00

Do you know who the boss is in this scene?

19:02

The guy that does the firing. He was interesting.

19:05

You were like he's got to be somebody because.

19:07

And then he, but then he's not in the rest of the movie.

19:09

Which kind of. He's very sexy oh yeah.

19:11

Like he's beautiful but his voice is like very powerful and I was like I hope this guy comes back in this movie.

19:18

Spoiler alert. He doesn't and I was bummed out.

19:21

But I want to find out who he is.

19:23

I don't know who he is. Yeah, he was good. Mom runs the distribution center.

19:29

She's up for a big promotion, which is a little confused.

19:32

I got a little confused that we're basically waiting until the end of the movie to find out if she gets some promotion.

19:37

I thought she got it in the middle of the movie but I guess she didn't.

19:41

She got like the nod, but the boss was like I'm going to back you for the promotion, but she still didn't have it.

19:50

Yeah, so it wasn't exactly super clear cut, but we're like, okay, whatever.

19:52

Then we have this weird scene with the outplacement officer, which is kind of a throwaway scene, where we have a woman who's like I'm your outplacement officer, and it didn't super land, but you were like they were trying.

20:06

I thought it was going. I thought that we saw scene one of three of the outplacement officer.

20:12

There's going to be more, but they just kind of like left it.

20:15

They're just like if you think it's funny, great, if not, we don't care.

20:18

We're moving on, it's fine.

20:20

He goes home. Listen to that, king Cole.

20:23

They're going to go over to Ken Marino's house.

20:26

He forgot to buy wine so they're going to have to do boxed wine.

20:29

We do a few boxed wine jokes which aren't funny.

20:31

But you're like okay, it's fine, but I get it.

20:35

I mean, I've never had boxed wine or, you know, regular wine, for that matter, but I understand the concept, yeah.

20:42

You're setting up how these people are, is it? Is it a hilarious setup that leads to great laughs?

20:46

No, but you're like okay, you're setting a thing up.

20:48

He's at. He's like we should.

20:50

We should play pickleball, which I think is a pretty good joke, because that's a whole thing where people are now playing the pickleball.

20:58

And I turned to my wife and I was like, see, we should be doing it because we bought pickleball stuff.

21:04

We have I have a bag of pickleball things in my closet.

21:09

We've got two of those pickleball balls and we got two rackets and we've never played, Never.

21:14

We've never done it.

21:16

Then he tells her I got laid off, and then she's like are you okay?

21:20

He's like no, I'm not okay.

21:23

I wrote Eddie can act.

21:26

He acted the scene really well.

21:29

He really did. And it hits because you know I'm on, I'm on this verge here, I understand this scene very well and it hits home.

21:37

He's, he's crushing it. I love this guy.

21:40

Boom, they go over and he says this is our.

21:42

We've got to enjoy our last Christmas.

21:44

I think it's kind of a Kevin, you know, like mom's, not that, but he's kind of like this is our last, last Christmas.

21:51

The kids get to enjoy because the two kids are going off to school or to life and the youngest kid's going to like find out that it's all, all bullshit.

21:59

Like okay, it's our last, this is our last Christmas.

22:03

Yeah, it's real nice. It sounds like something I would say, so they go.

22:09

They go to the dinner. Uh, camberino and Ricky Clint home, who's the, what's her name?

22:14

Did the music thing? Um, and then they're watching Prism Cable and here comes Emerson Turner, who's the big, super tall guy from um V, which I didn't really watch V, I love him.

22:29

I love.

22:30

I love him to death. I I want to see a movie with him, just did you love him in this movie.

22:34

I liked him in this movie.

22:38

I thought he. I thought he what he was given to work with.

22:42

He worked with with quite well.

22:44

Okay, he's so fun.

22:47

He didn't have a lot to work with.

22:49

He. So I felt like one of them didn't understand the assignment, and in these two she was on camera.

22:58

I didn't find her funny at all. She wasn't funny and she was so caricaturey that next to his straight man, it felt really weird.

23:09

Yes, and I feel like she was.

23:12

Either she was too much or he was too straight he I don't know and they would have to make the choice.

23:18

Obviously, I'm not saying one is better than the other, but the person who directed that scene has to have them somewhere in more in the middle because they don't belong on the same movie.

23:28

He was commenting on her existence and it felt to me like what's his real name?

23:37

I don't know his real name. What?

23:39

would you say. It was Well Emerson Turner, I think his name in the movie.

23:43

It felt like he, as an actor, was commenting on her as an actor, as opposed to these characters talking because he feels like we feel, I think and she is like the most annoying I would have.

23:56

I would have fired her day one Like this.

23:58

This is not what's supposed to be in this movie and it just felt to me like he hated his life and he was really feeling these things and saying them as it was a character but it's not a character.

24:10

So I just I felt like they didn't work together, but I don't blame him.

24:15

It's like you're an improv scene and you're commenting on your, your improv partner because they don't know what they're they don't know what they're doing.

24:21

Yeah, we've all been there.

24:23

We've all been there. I just remember there was this one scene and someone was really pissing me off in it.

24:28

So I went and I stood in front of them, between them and the audience, so that I completely blocked their ability to interact with the audience.

24:39

And I was like let's see if this wakes them up, see if they notice that.

24:42

I am literally standing between you, know it's like and did they?

24:46

No, no, no cut. Was it me Be honest with me?

24:49

I wish it was me That'd be the great.

24:51

I would happily tell it story to every party for the rest of my life in Utah.

24:54

No, it wasn't me.

24:57

That's such a baller move, though, dude, I was just like.

25:00

I'm just going to cut you off on the stage here.

25:03

If you're not going to listen and be part of this, you're just going to be doing whatever you're doing, then they shouldn't be able to see.

25:08

They should not be able to see.

25:11

Okay. So boom, everybody's oh.

25:15

So they say we're making candy cane lane.

25:17

A competition $100,000 on the line, everybody's like $100,000 on the line.

25:24

Yes, it's so much money. It's so much money.

25:27

Maybe 10,000 would have felt more accurate, like because this is cable access news as far as I can tell right, this leads to the best but the best joke in the movie, or one of the best jokes in the movie.

25:39

I still think 10,000 would have worked. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, all right, it's incredible, and that's why, when the joke of this plays out, it's one of my favorite jokes.

25:50

I will remember forever, because it takes the idea of money and then completely subverts it Just fuck you.

25:57

Thank you All right, boom.

26:01

So dad begins disassembling the house you know like taking everything from everybody's rooms and then he gets to the young daughter's room and he's all like you know you're not going back to school.

26:11

This is on and she's like she's like all in it.

26:14

I'm just like I'm just like great. This is a family dynamic.

26:18

It's not every one of the kids pushing back at being me.

26:22

I don't want to do this.

26:23

But no, there is none of that kind of grousing where they're just like why did I have to come to grandma's house for vacation?

26:31

I'm going to be all pouty and dumb.

26:33

It's like I don't like you already, these kids.

26:35

You know I'm going to watch family switch, dan, you would have hated it so much.

26:39

Everything you're saying is exactly what they do wrong.

26:42

Yes.

26:43

No, this is these. These are wonderful it's. I appreciate it even more because it's accurate.

26:48

You know what I mean. Like yeah, the oldest kids going to want their freedom.

26:52

They've been, we've all been there. You turn 18.

26:54

You're like I want to get the fuck out of here, please, not me.

26:57

And then you know the son wants to do his own art thing.

27:01

I think we all understand that, dan, you know what I'm saying.

27:05

Like that's that's me. I wanted to be an actor.

27:07

My dad's like what are you an idiot? You're not going to make money.

27:10

Guess what? He was right At the time.

27:13

At the time, you just want to be you.

27:16

You know as wrong as that is, as wrong as it is and as foolhardy as it is to follow your music.

27:23

Dreams. Kid, to take math.

27:26

That's what I wanted to yell at the screen, but then I felt guilty Take math.

27:30

Um, he's like I'm going to win, and then she's like you might not win, and he's like I might not not win.

27:38

I'm not not win. Yeah, great, great line, thank you.

27:44

Now we have one of the 10 out of 10 jokes in the thing.

27:46

They start going to the stores, right?

27:48

First they go to Walmart, people are fighting, and then we do that Anarchy.

27:53

Yeah, it's like a pan yeah like it's a white.

27:56

Yeah, we wiped the Costco.

27:59

There's nothing there. We wiped to target, it's all.

28:04

Valentine's Day canons they are ready.

28:06

Yeah, it's, it's brilliant. It hits all three of them perfectly.

28:12

I loved it. I thought it was really nice.

28:15

And you're not exact. I wasn't quite ready, you know.

28:17

I was like, oh, they're fighting there and this one, oh, so now it's empty.

28:20

I'm like, no, no, this is Costco. Costco is empty.

28:22

And then we're like, wait, what's happening at Target? Target looks good.

28:25

And then you're like, oh, it's the next holiday.

28:27

The next holiday They've are. Christmas is coming.

28:30

Gone, baby. We're moving on and that's it's brilliant.

28:34

That's the key to comedy is understanding a thing and then just just do that in 30 seconds, I think.

28:42

Yeah, if that honestly.

28:44

Yeah, beautiful, yeah.

28:46

No, this is a great movie, damn.

28:49

Oh, I gotta clear my throat.

28:51

Do it, let me clear my throat.

28:53

Oh, you mute it.

28:55

To do it. I was setting you up perfectly to make it in the sun, ah you know what?

29:00

No, I know how to do that. I click this one button right here.

29:02

It mutes me.

29:03

No, I know how to do that. Got myself a mute button over here.

29:08

Took me 167 episodes, but I understand the mute button.

29:11

We are three years into this podcast and Dad knows how to mute.

29:15

Now everybody, We've done it, We've made it.

29:18

I have to, I have to telegraph that I'm doing and I have to, you know, like old man, let me, let me navigate the screen and find where I need to go.

29:25

Okay, so they go driving and they hit these all these weird detours and you're like what is happening?

29:31

And boom, they end up at Kringles, which is this magical little store that's, uh, under a bridge, under a freeway bridge.

29:41

And you're like something's going on here.

29:43

Something's going on here.

29:45

They go inside it's uh this beautiful stairways, all these things.

29:52

And then boop, here comes Jillian Cool store, here comes Jillian Bell has uh pepper, and Now thoughts on J Bell.

30:00

Oh, three out of five stars. Okay, let's it never, it never, never transcends, but it's never completely stupid.

30:09

It just sort of really okay, we feel it.

30:13

We feel it. Oh, this, this bit didn't work so well.

30:15

She's kind of crazy and interesting.

30:17

And then it's now it doesn't feel real.

30:20

It holds it in. Yeah.

30:21

So I wish it had been. I wish it had been.

30:25

You know I was talking to Shannon. I was like somebody on Facebook was arguing about how there's no new good holiday movies.

30:32

You know all the good ones are. I got passed.

30:34

Spirited came out last year.

30:38

Yeah, brilliant that that is a movie that in 10 years everyone's gonna look back and say we watch Spirited every year I I already do.

30:48

I mean, it's only been, was it last year really?

30:50

Yeah, it's just last year, so yeah, two years, but two for two, I'm not gonna lie to you.

30:55

And now X-Mess, which is a movie I talked about a few weeks ago, is brilliant.

30:59

That's gonna be every year from now on too, so I've gotten it one in each year at least.

31:05

Well, and what's his name? As the Violent Night Santa Claus.

31:10

Of course. In fact, that one is so good that we're waiting until we go home.

31:14

My mom and my dad are like you can't watch that without us.

31:18

That's how good, that movie is.

31:20

Oh, wow, that's a family movie. It's like we need to all be there for that one.

31:23

So that's, that's not happening until like the day before Christmas Eve.

31:27

So there are. There are classics, there are classics.

31:31

We're doing it, we're still doing it.

31:34

But this is a fine Christmas movie.

31:37

Yeah, I mean this one's fine and it'll find a little bit of a place and people will watch it and people will like it.

31:42

And in like five or six years, I'll be on streaming.

31:44

I'll be like you know what. Let's give this one another shot.

31:46

And you'll sit there and watch it and you won't hear it, but you won't say Okay, I remember why we didn't watch it every year, but it wasn't a waste of an evening.

31:55

I'm not mad about it.

31:57

You don't like out of this movie mad, unless you know Jesus.

32:00

So boom, the thing he ends up on is this giant tree, that pop.

32:07

You know this gigantic tree. That's the 12 days of Christmas.

32:10

Okay, it looks cool. The big printout comes out.

32:15

He signs the thing and I was like, oh shoot, she was the devil.

32:19

I thought she was the devil.

32:21

Oh that, yeah, that makes total sense. Not very Christmassy, Dan, no, but I thought she was a troll Because I was like she's under a bridge, oh bridge.

32:32

You know, that's what I but.

32:35

I was way off. I was on the wrong fairy tale.

32:38

You troll, satan both wrong.

32:41

Well, they're all kind of the same, let's be honest.

32:43

Now we get another little stream of jokes that I love.

32:46

They're driving home with it. It's in a gigantic can, this gigantic kind of a tuna can that's on top of the car and sadly, there's some jokes about it in the in the outtakes.

33:02

Outtakes, yeah, that are hilarious and you're just like oh so, they have to.

33:08

They have to get it off of the car, they have to roll it up there.

33:12

There's a. There's a user manual. You have to rub the partridge.

33:16

He has to pull back the can.

33:20

Just visually I like the opening of the, the little pop tap, and then you pull it back.

33:24

That was very funny to me and um.

33:32

Did I miss something? And then they, they do it, yeah.

33:35

And then they open it and they do it. They pull it back in the tree, go Great.

33:39

So we cut to the evening.

33:45

This is the night where I don't know if they're judging. I don't know what's exactly happening, but there's a parade with Santa.

33:50

It's confusing, because here's the thing, dan, the news.

33:53

People are like we're going to be here all week long.

33:56

And like tonight is the unveiling, but then Christmas Eve is the judging.

34:03

I didn't, I didn't understand why there's multiple nights of the thing, cause nothing's really going to change in between the unveiling and the.

34:12

I don't know, the setup is a little wonky, a little murky.

34:16

So there's a parade. Then there's this other guy who's the Chris Chris Tucker of the movie.

34:25

He's okay. I mean, yeah, sometimes he's okay, sometimes he's not.

34:31

I'm not going to lie to you, but I don't hate him.

34:33

I'm never like get him out of this movie.

34:36

He shouldn't be here. But every once in a while I'm like maybe cut that one out.

34:41

That joke doesn't land, cut it out.

34:44

Yeah, and they don't. They don't make any of these characters spend too much time with you.

34:47

They're just like give me 45 seconds, hit your joke or two and then boom, we are moving on to the next situation and we're going to insert you later in.

34:58

The one thing I am bummed about is they do to set up this new character, the nephew of her or whatever it is.

35:05

They're cutting the news.

35:07

People are like and now the weather guy, and it cuts to a still image to set up the weather guy and he looks crazy.

35:16

I want to see just one one weather thing with this guy.

35:21

He's he definitely looks like he's wearing a wig of some sort and he's just a guy's like doing this.

35:27

I don't understand. I really it's because it's so fast, because they show that, and then it's like that's the transition to cut to him, but then they cut to the nephew instead.

35:37

I just really want a one cut away of the news guy, of that weather guy, either being upset that they're not going to him, something.

35:45

I want to see something. You set up a bit a person.

35:49

You hired a person to stand in a wig at one point.

35:51

I want to see that payoff.

35:55

I think that was on the cutting room floor.

35:56

Unless we get, a director Two and a half hour directors cut of this.

36:00

We think we've lost all of this. The Snyder cut three hours long.

36:04

Now we get a nice thing where we go through the neighborhood and we do each house.

36:09

We do a Jesus is the reason house, another one where they kind of bless Jesus.

36:15

Yeah, a little bit, a little bit. Then we do a Hanukkah house, then we do an LAX house.

36:23

Yeah, well, I mean to be fair, they're what, 10, 15 minutes south of the airport, like it's really close to the airport.

36:32

That's Eddie Murphy's trying to get the plugs. All together, we get the Matrix House.

36:36

Do you want to talk about the Matrix House, tony?

36:39

I didn't get it. Is that weird?

36:42

Do you know what the Matrix is? What's?

36:45

the Matrix. No, no, I mean, I get it.

36:47

And it's the green lights that are like the lines in the thing.

36:50

It's the.

36:51

Matrix the ones and zeros, because there's all these houses where they all control the lights and to do it, they just made it into the ones and zeros.

36:59

That's a great joke. I love it.

37:01

I'm sure it's funny, but my brain is like how's that Christmas guys?

37:05

You're on candy cane lane, you have to at least make a Christmasy, but they're all dressed like the Matrix.

37:12

I was mad, I was upset.

37:15

They're not winning All right.

37:17

Then we get to Ken Marino's inflatables house. Then we get to his house and it doesn't go off.

37:22

And then it goes off and the tree starts becoming animated and light shoots up and hits an airplane.

37:28

Everyone sort of has a religious experience, yeah.

37:33

Yeah, I mean listen.

37:37

In all honesty, I still don't think his house is the best.

37:42

Now, all he's got is a tree that shoots light into the sky, which, by the way, that close to the airport is probably illegal.

37:50

They're definitely getting shut down, but I don't know.

37:57

You're still not sold on his house. You're going to Matrix House, matrix House, yeah, I'm going full Matrix House for sure.

38:04

You know, uh, national Ampuns Christmas vacation, right?

38:09

Yes, he's trying to get his lights on.

38:12

That's like the whole movie. When he finally does it and he lights up that house, you are impressed.

38:18

You are impressed.

38:18

You know what I mean yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what I wanted I and not that it matters, it doesn't matter, I get that, but as a spectator, I want him to plug that in and be like, oh shit, that is cool.

38:31

Yeah, well, the thing is, his house isn't cool, it's the tree that's cool.

38:36

The people have the religious experience from the tree, I know, I just don't think it's that good.

38:40

I don't know, not again, it doesn't matter.

38:44

It's impressive for something store bought, but it's not a thing that you're just like 100%.

38:49

Exactly. Yeah, I don't know.

38:51

I'm still on Marino's side, that's all I'm saying.

38:54

So he goes out there. Everything is missing from the tree.

38:56

All the little circles where the things were are all gone.

39:00

I want to wait. I want to. I want to say my, my second favorite joke of the movie.

39:04

I think there's it's the nephew, I don't even know exactly what happens.

39:09

He sees somebody and he does a six foot tall elf joke.

39:14

He's just like six foot tall elf.

39:16

Never seen that before. I've never seen that before.

39:20

I laughed very hard. I just want to. That was a good joke for him, good for him.

39:24

That's all I like the joke.

39:26

Put that one in his reel. Put it in your reel, buddy.

39:29

It's going to be great. I wonder if he's got it real.

39:32

I should look him up.

39:33

So boom, all the stuff's missing from the tree.

39:36

They go into the backyard. There's all these swans in the pool and he's like you know, mom gets mad and she's like no live animals and then he's all like live animals.

39:51

It's a weird exchange. I like where they get to.

39:53

But the weird exchange is he's shocked and then she gets mad at him.

39:57

He's like I didn't do this. And she's like I can't believe you did this.

40:01

He clearly didn't do it. He came back and he said he was like what the hell is going on?

40:05

Like he obviously didn't do it, it was awkward, but I do like that.

40:09

Then he thinks it's a good idea, that was, that was a nice joke.

40:13

And then it's like, oh, this would be all right.

40:16

He goes and accuses the neighbors of messing with his tree and then he says that the thin veneer of neighborly love is trying to let it break down.

40:25

I'm like, yeah, there we go, this is, this is nice, yeah.

40:30

And then mom goes to work and there's these geese flying over dropping eggs on her and she's like, what?

40:36

the hell is going on. They're not dropping eggs.

40:40

They are shooting eggs out of their animal organs, like it's weird.

40:46

It's really really weird, and this is the only thing in the movie that I was like this is the choice we made.

40:51

I feel like there's a better way to do it, because they full on show you the bird opens up its wings and shoots right out of its bird vagina.

41:00

It's really weird, I don't know.

41:03

Also, isn't that murder? I don't understand farming.

41:08

How do eggs? Because eggs are sometimes birds and then sometimes not Is that?

41:15

Is that the case, or are they always birds and then we just cook them?

41:19

I sound like a moron right now.

41:22

Maybe we should cut this board out.

41:25

I think we do something to them so that they don't continue their life cycle.

41:29

Okay, so it is supposed to be, that's dark Okay.

41:33

Yeah, it's changed birds for me, dan, I thought.

41:37

For some reason I thought those were like unfertilized eggs and so like they are Okay.

41:44

So it's kind of like we don't have to get into this.

41:48

So they're not technically you know, a baby yet, because they didn't get the bird semen.

41:54

I'm just going to go with that, let's move on, okay.

42:01

So he goes back to cringles. They break in the back door yeah, illegal.

42:09

And then how does he find out that he has to collect the golden rings?

42:15

He does talk to her because she gives him like a whole spiel at some point.

42:20

There's a rhyme. Something happens with a rhyme.

42:22

Yeah, she gives the rhyme, oh, so she says it yeah, and we use the bad Ismus rhymes with Christmas line in there.

42:30

Basically, she says that you have to collect the golden rings.

42:33

I thought we established in this scene that he needs to collect 10 golden rings.

42:39

Oh, interesting.

42:42

I don't know where I got that from but I don't remember ten golden rings, but then later they established that he's gonna have to collect five golden rings because of the song golden rings.

42:55

Yeah yeah. So I got confused.

42:57

I thought it was ten and then it became five and I was a little confused.

43:00

So she does that, she does the song and then he continues to walk around in there and and then he meets the Ornament people.

43:12

You know, I call them the ornament people. They're little ceramic people.

43:15

Yeah, there's a woman. There's Nick Offerman, as kind of you know, gentlemen.

43:23

There's Chris Redd, as yeah.

43:28

Perby lamp lighter.

43:30

He's really good.

43:31

Oh, he is really good.

43:33

And then there's a group of carolers and and so our, a Group of carolers.

43:39

It's the Pentatonix man. Who's that?

43:42

The acapella group, the best acapella group in the world.

43:47

No, no, no, no, no, no. What's her name is the best acapella group in the world.

43:51

First of all, you just said what's her name. One person can't be an acapella group Dan.

43:56

Yeah, what's her name? You know the she does the cups song.

44:01

Anna Kendrick. Yeah, she's the best.

44:09

Okay, that's something. Bella's, the Bella's yeah, what's their school name?

44:13

Why, I don't know that.

44:16

Anyhow, no, pentatonix there were first of all a real group, unlike the Borland Bella.

44:23

No, that was gonna come to me if I just said it fast.

44:25

Anyhow, yeah, they're great, they're fun.

44:28

They do a lot of like Christmas stuff as well. And, yeah, pentatonix are awesome and I was excited they were in this and all of their kid.

44:34

Their jingles are great.

44:35

Oh, so there you go, so you. So that was a, that was something for you.

44:38

For me they were like okay, whatever, I didn't care about them, they didn't bother me, they didn't do anything for me, I didn't care about them.

44:45

Oh, dan, you should. I think you would like you like acapella.

44:49

Do you listen to acapella? You know, listen to acapella I like when Anna Kendrick does it, I mean listen.

44:55

Don't you forget about me, me, me, me, me, me me.

45:01

Right, I like it when you do it. That's really good.

45:05

When they dance and they break dance and they all wear different outfits.

45:08

They don't know where the same outfits. They get rid of the old Bella outfits.

45:14

I love pitch-bird, it's great.

45:16

Yeah, I like that movie. Yeah, it's good so.

45:19

Nick Offerman. Let's talk about Jolly old Saint Nicholas here.

45:23

Yeah, not great, right.

45:26

That accent is not right.

45:29

Someone can correct me, but that did not feel like a real, like that.

45:33

I felt it was going in and out. I don't know.

45:37

I'll tell you what the real problem was. Okay, tell me what the problem is.

45:40

We don't. We don't get anything from him or the woman as much.

45:44

Michael Reds characters perfect. He's like fucking pervy, creepy guy.

45:48

Yeah, nick Offerman's character needs to be something.

45:51

He's be a character. He wasn't a character woman one also wasn't.

45:54

He's British.

45:56

Isn't that a character? No, no.

46:00

And so he was fine. But you're, I mean, he had a couple scenes at the very end that I really liked.

46:05

Sure, he needs to be melancholy, he needs to be laconic, he needs to be, because isn't he old-timey like that?

46:14

Isn't that the bit that he's been there for so long that everyone he loves his dad?

46:18

Yeah, and we need to see we need.

46:21

He needs to be a tragic figure. I agree, I, yeah, I completely agree, and he could play that very.

46:26

You know you played him.

46:27

Well, nick Offerman they didn't.

46:29

they just didn't give him anything to play, and so that's why I think you thought his accent was going in and out, because he wasn't going anyway, he was just like yeah.

46:37

I'm doing a thing, yeah, we do. You know you need to make these people something, yeah, and that's yeah, yeah for sure.

46:50

So boom, you got to get the rings or you're gonna turn into one of us.

46:57

And then they grab the first ring.

47:02

Where do they grab the first ring from?

47:06

I think they're in the parking lot and the turtle doves land on the hood.

47:11

Oh, land on the hood. Yes, and they're holding it.

47:14

She's like go get it and Eddie doesn't believe it.

47:16

And then he does it and they turn to wood, they turn back into wood, which is part of thing and they collect them.

47:21

They do a really good job of collecting up the pieces that they're gonna need to put back in there.

47:25

They're Christmas tree to try to win. I'm like, yeah, it's interesting, they go to mom's work.

47:31

Mom's work is beset by the three hens who are kind of just.

47:36

She's sort of doing her pitch and showing her thing and then the hens are in the box and then they eventually get one of them.

47:46

Dan, yeah, I, I think I know the answer to this, but I'm still not a hundred percent sure.

47:54

I would put it at 98. Can other people see these animals?

47:59

Oh yeah, because there are moments, I would say a lot of the time it feels like they can't.

48:06

Nobody seems to be reacting to them and they are all very strange, like she's giving her right.

48:15

I didn't think about it.

48:16

She's giving her speech.

48:18

No, they see the chicken. They say I know that they see, they can see it.

48:22

But here's the thing a chicken pops out of this box and they somehow think it's part of her stick.

48:29

No she seems like she says it was part of a stick at the end.

48:32

But you at the end, sure, but she's like she dives in there and is trying to get a chicken out.

48:38

It just feels really weak like these people are just watching.

48:42

Mmm, yeah, this is chicken.

48:44

Yeah, she's chasing a chicken.

48:48

You what's happening. You have to, you have to put that on the shelf, you know.

48:55

I would put it on the shelf. But and here's my only but it comes back when they go to the track meet and there are 12 lords of leaping running around and nobody seems concerned about it.

49:07

No, that was when I was like, well, they must not be able to see it.

49:10

I'm sure I'm confused. They cannot see these people.

49:13

The dad goes on to the field like a ninja and is fighting them and nobody's doing anything.

49:20

It doesn't make any sense.

49:22

So boom, they get that, he gets.

49:25

So get, that's a second gold ring. And they go back to cringles, break in the back, steal the ceramic people and their house to take back home, so they can, you know, be protected.

49:36

We get an, an argument about whether or not diehard is a Christmas movie.

49:41

Is it a Christmas movie, tony?

49:43

Obviously, it's one of the best Christmas movies.

49:46

We do a holy sonic the hedgehog.

49:49

Wait, you haven't is. Do you agree? Do you disagree?

49:51

Oh yeah totally Okay, yeah, okay good.

49:55

They do some jokes, they drive and the things shake around, whatever.

50:00

They get home and it's kind of funny because they get to his house and they've just been living this whole Christmas existence and then they see his shop and they're all like what?

50:11

is this Very funny?

50:13

Yeah, it is funny, it's.

50:15

And then the Holly daughter sets up a whole Dollhouse for them to sort of live in, with the water slide and things.

50:22

Yeah, it's cute. Yeah, it's cute, it's nice.

50:27

Okay, boom, the kids come home and everybody finds out that he has been laid off and they're kind of freaking out and he takes them in the workshop and shows them the little people.

50:38

That's when we get the Nick and Holly.

50:40

Oh, and joy the other dog. His name is joy.

50:42

Yeah, nick is like yeah, we're all named after.

50:46

Christmas. This is absurd, which is which is very funny.

50:49

It's really good and I also, like I feel bad because I don't know her name, but the mom it's definitely three names, so you're probably right.

51:03

This is my favorite scene of hers is when she first sees the little people, the ornament people.

51:10

Very fun, her reactions very good, very strong.

51:14

Her and Eddie have a nice back and forth like it's, it's really nice, it's really nice.

51:18

Yeah, nobody. Nobody stands there denying the existence of their eye or the.

51:23

You know what they're seeing with their eyes.

51:25

I don't everybody else in town, but the family does a nice job.

51:32

They should have a few reaction shots during some of the weird shit that happens you are Something.

51:38

It's. It's fair. Well, we'll talk about it more when we get to the track meet, but there's some weird stuff and so we find out he's like well, I've got it.

51:47

Oh, he doesn't give him to do the thing yet, but he sort of explains that he got a wish and his wish was to win the Christmas competition.

51:54

And then the kids. We get a nice bit where the kids blast him about you know, you didn't do world peace, you didn't do hunger, right, yeah?

52:04

And the last one is you didn't get us a new Drake album, yep very funny.

52:10

It's perfect comedy, real thing, real thing out of left field.

52:13

It's great.

52:14

Yeah, nicely done, nicely done, yeah, a lot of little bits like this.

52:18

They really understand the comedy of them and yeah it's pleasant, really nice.

52:23

Got Chris red just trying to like burn things all the time, which is always funny and I don't know why both trying to burn things and hitting on his wife, constantly hitting on the full-size Super creepy super creepy, you're like he, he's like I'm gonna make this character as creepy and weird as possible and you're like God bless you.

52:43

God bless you to understand comedy.

52:46

Yeah, it's great. They say I don't remember what he's trying to burn, but a point.

52:51

At one point he's like oh no, she's going to hell.

52:56

One of the kids does a drawing of what pepper looks like and they put it up there.

52:59

He's gonna, he's gonna.

53:03

Just yeah, it's good stuff, man.

53:05

He's really nice in this movie.

53:07

He's funny and hopefully I get more voice acting things and he'll you know.

53:10

Yeah so that life teaches these guys to be funny.

53:14

If they're funny, and it's- only later in life that you, they're actually given the flexibility to use that stuff.

53:20

Yeah, you know where you're not working, like under time constraints that are absurd.

53:24

The older sons like we should split up, and then everybody's like that's, you know.

53:30

That's how the black character always dies.

53:32

And it's another great Chris red.

53:35

He's like yeah, the black guy always dies first and you're all black.

53:38

It's very funny, it's good they get it, I.

53:42

Yeah, this is a pretty good movie, dan.

53:45

Yeah, there's good stuff in bed at night, Chris and and and the mom.

53:51

They just talk about teamwork and it's really nice to really there's.

53:57

There's no frisian in this team. You know they're like they're gonna make it happen.

54:02

Here comes Chris red being weird like watching them.

54:06

Yeah, so what he does? So he doesn't. It puts him in a glass and shakes him.

54:10

Which, by the way, would shatter him, but it's fine.

54:17

Pip and the younger doll daughter, pip, is the Nick Hoffman character.

54:21

Yeah, they go off and send a letter to Santa.

54:23

They're like, okay, this is interesting, I'm in, okay.

54:26

And then Jillian Bell Pepper breaks in, sees the terrible drawing of herself on the wall and is like I'm beautiful or something.

54:36

It's a nice reversal.

54:38

Yeah, yeah, it's a good joke you know, a normal movie would have had her attack that and tear it up and get angry.

54:44

Yeah no, she thinks a terrible drawing of her.

54:48

That's, that's great and they sent it at they or she, I don't know, she's one of one of the two, or baby, both together.

54:54

They set up nicely because she goes, she's got the, the look of horde she's like is that me?

54:58

I look stunning.

55:00

It's a great reversal, it's. It's a nice joke.

55:06

She's trying to find the little people she she does a thing where she entices the carolers to sing.

55:11

Which is a good bit good bit, but then she just leaves and, like I'll, be back, which I don't understand, but that's fine but it was.

55:21

She had to go there to give them the clue where they're gonna need to get one of the rings from her and she's not a cheat.

55:28

She didn't need to do that as a character.

55:31

She needed to do it for the movie, but as a character it was a weird choice to go and then just leave.

55:38

I don't know so we learn out.

55:40

We learn that the daughter's got a track workout but there's gonna be a scout where they think the scouts from USC, which is their alma mater, but really it's gonna be from Notre Dame, where she wants to leave and go to, okay, and Then he's like, picked up his cell phone and there's like these crazy birds talking to him.

55:57

He's like why, does it keep getting these calls?

55:59

And then the mom's like that's three birds of calling it's calling.

56:03

They're calling birds Calling him on the cell phone.

56:05

It's pretty dumb yeah.

56:07

I like it. Nick Bales out.

56:09

Oh, so they go to the track thing.

56:11

Eddie's like look at my daughter, look at my daughter.

56:14

Okay, yeah, you know, these sees, these other people thinks they're the scouts is weird.

56:19

And then the Nick character in the middle thing, the older boy, he goes off and then does like a whole musical thing in a room for an unknowable reason?

56:30

just for fun, yeah, just having a good time.

56:32

Just wants to show everybody that he can do music.

56:34

But what's he even better at making beats, dancing, dancing.

56:42

Did you see him? Yeah, he was really good at dancing. His dancing was amazing.

56:45

I wrote that down.

56:46

I was like this kid. It turns out this kid's just actually really good at a lot of things artistically and they probably should foster it.

56:53

You know what I mean, because he moved nice and it is kind of funny because at the end, when he realizes that his kid is actually gifted, you're like you would know that kid was gifted for 10 years.

57:05

I mean with him as a father.

57:07

Yes, like there is a way to play that.

57:10

In which he wouldn't. But the dynamic that they have is a nice strong, even though they're not close.

57:17

Close, but they are a good family.

57:19

He's a good dad, he would know.

57:24

Yes, you really should have. In a movie where they hit that beat better, you would have had to set him up as a failure at music or something, so he's against it, but he's a super supportive dad.

57:39

Yeah and listen. I still applaud that choice rather than the other of him, not because I do like the family dynamic.

57:47

So I'll let it slide. I'd rather be living in this family dynamic than an unhappy family dynamic for two hours, 100% Okay.

58:00

So here we go. She's running.

58:04

Lord's a leaping show up.

58:07

They start going crazy. One of them goes and screws up the race.

58:11

Then there's-.

58:13

But like, visibly, visibly, they have problems.

58:15

He gets in her, he trips her right, doesn't he trip her?

58:18

Yeah, he stops in front of her. I think.

58:21

Nobody stops the race. There's no tweet tweet penalty.

58:25

I don't know how I don't run, I don't know how track works, but like something has to be.

58:30

There's a guy runs in the thing and trips her.

58:33

That shouldn't count. Yeah, when a spectator impedes the race, something is going to someone's going to say something, Something has to say and then instead, later, the scout is like counted 22 in fractions.

58:46

She got tackled. I don't understand.

58:49

How is that not? It's very weird.

58:51

So I was convinced they couldn't see the things, but they have to, they have to be.

58:56

It's very, it's confusing. It doesn't make any sense.

58:59

This scene doesn't work. No, it does not work at all.

59:04

Basically, the end thing is that she chases down, gets the ring, but she's not going to get a scholarship to Notre Dame.

59:11

Hold on, dan.

59:12

She chases it down and she pulls the ring. Eddie Murphy is fighting 10 dudes in the field with a bow staff, a javelin maybe, I don't know A javelin when she gets the coin?

59:25

No, what do they call it? Ring.

59:27

When she gets the ring, they all these 10 men in the middle of the field surrounded by spectators turn to wood and fall over.

59:38

Nobody says anything.

59:41

And they have to.

59:42

They just watch 10 men turn to wood and no one does anything.

59:47

No, doesn't make any sense. Yeah, they should have been like Eddie's, like this is for a TV show Da, da, da, da, da da.

59:54

And be like what is happening. Someone should have said something.

59:57

You're uncanded camera, whatever Should have been some.

1:00:00

Yeah, no instead we go to the scout and the scout starts his conversation by telling them I don't like to talk to athletes or their parents at these events usually, which is the right move.

1:00:14

But then he says but however, I'm gonna make an exception, because your daughter sucks 22 in fractions.

1:00:20

She will never race for our team.

1:00:22

He was so mean to her and she got tackled on the field.

1:00:27

I don't understand it, dan, make it make sense.

1:00:30

It didn't work.

1:00:32

So they get home and the kids want their own lives.

1:00:36

And then Nick is like kind of kind of, choose out dad, because he's all like you know.

1:00:42

He's like dad is like Christmas is for the family and he's like no, it's not dad, it's for you.

1:00:47

And you're like whoa, it's good, the kid could act too, it's good.

1:00:52

The kid was good. No, I actually really liked him.

1:00:55

I thought he was great through the whole thing.

1:00:57

Yeah Boom, dad apologizes and says you know that there are real consequences and they're all you know.

1:01:06

And then he starts to cry, you know, because he does not want to get turned into an ornament person and lose his family.

1:01:13

And it was funny. Yeah, because he does his Eddie Murphy cry and he's like they're gonna turn me into one of us and it was really nice, it was really good.

1:01:23

I didn't miss him. Yeah, he's great.

1:01:26

And then mom is like. Mom says no, and she, like you know, uses her organizational powers to like, reorganize everybody more and they're wearing this together.

1:01:36

And then they talk to the little people and we figure out that Pepper has one of the rings and so, okay, boom, yeah.

1:01:46

And then they form a plan.

1:01:48

Mom takes charge, they can make a lasso, they set up all these.

1:01:51

They're gonna use their ornament people as bait. Boom, boom, um, boom, boom, boom.

1:01:59

It's the Christmas Eve night.

1:02:01

He has to tell them to eight o'clock to solve this problem.

1:02:04

Boom, they're all like they do the you know, come into the fight music and then they march.

1:02:12

And it was good, it was a moment of cohesion with these characters.

1:02:19

The teams ready for battle.

1:02:21

Ready for battle. We are going to the third act.

1:02:23

We've had our whole crazy second act, some which worked great, some which worked not as great, not at all, and now we're going to just have this, this almost endless third act.

1:02:34

That is way too long and way too convoluted.

1:02:37

I think you could really sum it up in like, I don't know, eight minutes, eight to 10 minutes.

1:02:42

You could have wrapped this movie up. I feel we're going to full 30.

1:02:46

Yeah, it's fine, you got to do it.

1:02:49

Spectacular begins. Everyone's like marching.

1:02:54

There's like a whole band marching down there.

1:02:56

So his kid is playing the tuba in the band.

1:02:59

The daughter is the top of the Christmas tree, but she's got an ocular trying to figure things out and then we cut back to the prism People about the $100,000.

1:03:12

It's not $100,000. It's a $100,000 equivalent.

1:03:17

So it's taco coupons.

1:03:19

And Tony's tacos.

1:03:22

Yeah, it's a very funny joke.

1:03:26

It's such a good joke. I mean it's good Because the guy doesn't even.

1:03:32

Here's what the guy doesn't know.

1:03:35

One of the newscasters doesn't even know.

1:03:38

And then the lady's like did I not mention that it's $100,000 in rewards?

1:03:43

And then they send the list of rewards and it's like a $5 Applebee's gift card was on there.

1:03:49

And it's just like it was good.

1:03:52

It was just so good. It was just such a good joke and you're like it's not and everybody's like, wait what?

1:04:01

Like ruins the whole event. Really, let's be honest yeah, it was beautiful, yeah it's good, it's very funny.

1:04:07

So boom, the youngest angel spots Chili.

1:04:11

At Bell, they put out a trail of peppermints to draw her into their display.

1:04:17

There are the ornament people.

1:04:20

The trap is sprung, she gets flicked into the air, they go and they pull the ring off and so they have the five.

1:04:27

Oh, I forgot about the cow. I forgot about the cow.

1:04:31

Oh, you did forget about the cow. How do you forget about the cow?

1:04:34

That was the most. It's crazy.

1:04:36

It scarred me for life, I think.

1:04:38

Who is it the son?

1:04:40

Is it Nick that's in the room?

1:04:43

It's in the music room this cat, it's in the music room.

1:04:46

This cow shows up with the super hot girl milking the cow.

1:04:50

Smoking hot, made the milking.

1:04:52

I'll tell you that Just one of them, and then it just spews milk everywhere.

1:04:56

He almost drowns in milk and then he just grabs the ring.

1:04:59

So much milk, Dan. It's very.

1:05:02

It's off putting. She grabs the utter and points it at the son, and it's so.

1:05:11

It's a fire hose of milk coming out of this creature, and it's really weird, it's funny.

1:05:18

But I did laugh because it was so weird.

1:05:21

Good for them. And then, like the room, it's so much milk that the room is like up to his wasted milk it's.

1:05:28

I don't understand.

1:05:29

They feed him milk. It's very weird, ridiculous.

1:05:32

Boom, santa Claus comes down on a rocket clause.

1:05:36

Rocket sleigh, sled, sled and.

1:05:42

And a rocket clause it's David Allen Greer.

1:05:45

Oh my God, he's so good.

1:05:47

Oh, thank God that it is.

1:05:49

You know what I mean so beautiful.

1:05:51

Yeah, he's wonderful.

1:05:52

He's wonderful, he chews out pepper.

1:05:55

He's actually pepper mint.

1:05:57

My favorite joke of the movie yeah, which is everyone's like it's Black Santa that cut to the news people and she's like Black Santa.

1:06:06

And your guy? He says I just see Santa Because he doesn't see color.

1:06:14

And she goes what color is that nutcracker Turns around white.

1:06:18

I died, I died, it's like white.

1:06:23

Oh, it's good, it's so good.

1:06:25

What a nice comment. Ah, strong stuff.

1:06:29

So, basically, we then find out that they have to collect 40 rings and not five, and then it is just pandemonium.

1:06:38

And for the next, nine minutes.

1:06:41

It's just nonsense. People are running and screaming and grabbing rings.

1:06:45

I can't keep track of anything.

1:06:48

Jillian Bell goes and pushes the clock forward, so Eddie shrinks and becomes an ornament person before he has to, but he still has another five minutes, and so they're collecting, collecting, collecting, boom.

1:07:01

They get to the end and the time is officially up, and Santa's like how many rings do you have?

1:07:08

And they count up all the rings, they have 38 rings, plus there are two wedding rings or the final two gold rings.

1:07:17

Yeah, I got emotional.

1:07:19

I loved it.

1:07:20

Yeah, it's nice, it's sweet, it's cute.

1:07:22

I would be out of luck because I have a rubber ring.

1:07:26

So, oh, I have platinum. Oh, that sounds nice, isn't?

1:07:32

That nice when gold Actually, no, I have white gold, so that is nice.

1:07:36

I think, that would still count.

1:07:38

So it's, gold yeah.

1:07:40

Yeah, it's just the wrong color.

1:07:42

The correct color, attractive color. It's the correct color Gold, mostly kind of ugly.

1:07:51

Yeah, I agree with that. That's why I have a rubber ring, Dan.

1:07:55

It matches my outfit. I can check.

1:07:57

I got a couple of them. I can change colors.

1:07:59

It's really nice.

1:08:03

It's so fucking weird. Yeah, and you're, you know, like that family heirloom of that rubber as it degrades over time.

1:08:08

They're just going to love, they don't last.

1:08:11

I've had to. I had to buy a bunch of they tear Like I've had them tear just right in half.

1:08:16

They fall off your hand. You're like, well, I guess it's time for a new one.

1:08:19

So, sentimentality wise.

1:08:21

They're not great, but they're nice because you can move around with them.

1:08:26

Yeah, it's so restricting having a ring on my finger.

1:08:29

I know that you're so I can't move. I can't move.

1:08:33

So my dad, all right. He I don't know what he did.

1:08:36

He hit his hand on something and his finger swelled up.

1:08:40

He had to go get his ring cut off.

1:08:42

They had to saw it off his hand.

1:08:45

I was like you know what, if I had my rubber ring, I could just take a scissors, snip that right off.

1:08:49

Problem solved. So it's also a safety issue, yeah.

1:08:54

Cause that happens to everybody all the time I'm going to break.

1:08:59

Next time I see I'm going to jam your finger You're going to have to get your ring cut off.

1:09:03

So they get dad back, but all the other little ornament people are still ornament people.

1:09:08

And then the, the, uh.

1:09:11

Then Santa Claus is like well, it's only one way to fix that A child's Christmas wish, and when she sent the letter off to Santa she said that's what she wished for.

1:09:21

Little Holly wishes them back, man.

1:09:25

A great emotional moment again. Yeah, it's really cute.

1:09:27

A child's Christmas wish. I'm like, couldn't she have just wished for everything and her dad to be back too?

1:09:33

She could have, but she didn't. She's a kid, dan.

1:09:38

Okay, don't put so much on her shoulders, she's uh, so they take pepper pepper, but peppers like not even getting any trouble.

1:09:46

Santa's like I'm taking her back. That's what you think, yeah, it was very funny, but yeah, so boom.

1:09:53

It's funny. Eddie says something about a flogging right, doesn't he say she should get a flogging?

1:09:59

It's like it's not a punishment, we still do.

1:10:01

I think she says I haven't been flogged in a while.

1:10:06

Well, I got a little excited.

1:10:08

Yeah, it's nice, yes, so boom, take they, they, they fly off Meanwhile in the studio.

1:10:17

We go back to the studio, we just see what's happening with them, and then it starts snowing, and then they're like that's not snow, it's fake snow.

1:10:26

So what's he's doing?

1:10:28

I was so happy with this bit For two reasons.

1:10:33

That is the bit. So they think it's snowing and they're like it's a Christmas miracle, and then it turns out that Ken Merino just has a snow machine.

1:10:41

The snow globe is like something is going on.

1:10:45

He has a big snow globe and it's just spewing out.

1:10:47

Yeah.

1:10:48

It's just spewing snow. Very funny reversal.

1:10:50

But the reason why that landed so well with me, Dan, is because the family switch, which also takes place in California, snows at the end and they're like God, it's a miracle.

1:11:03

Nope, no, no, no, Nope, Nope.

1:11:06

So I was just I was, so I thought that this movie was going to do the same thing and I was mad for like two seconds.

1:11:12

And they're like wait, this isn't real snow. And I almost I almost died.

1:11:16

It was amazing. Good for them for not being idiots.

1:11:20

So we cut ahead to Christmas morning.

1:11:22

Mom got the job.

1:11:24

The pit comes back and he comes in with a dead bird, which I thought it was a goose, but he's like it's a lady, it's a man, a man, a man, and he's all like we're going to have to clean.

1:11:38

I guess we're going to have to clean this lady.

1:11:42

That's right. It's funny when he hands it to Eddie and Eddie's like I don't know what do I do with this.

1:11:47

It's good, and you were right, If he was more of a tragic character when he came back here, there'd be a nice emotional moment to it when you realized he was going to stay with them and they were going to be his family Cause, that's what.

1:12:03

I think they wanted it to be Cause he was going to they were his family.

1:12:06

They'd become his family. Yeah, you're right.

1:12:09

That could have been the hand a little bit better Could have been that Now we're nitpicking.

1:12:13

Let's be honest, it's a fine movie.

1:12:16

It could have been a good movie.

1:12:18

One week later, pepper is an ornament inside the crinkles and now Chris is going to run crinkles.

1:12:24

It's called Chris, chris's crinkles.

1:12:28

Yeah, yeah.

1:12:31

I didn't see that coming. I didn't see that coming for one second.

1:12:34

I didn't see it coming, but here's why I don't see it coming. I don't understand what that means.

1:12:38

Is he now making bad deals with people to turn them into ornaments?

1:12:43

No, he's just he's probably running that.

1:12:46

He's probably running that place to save Christmases.

1:12:48

Yeah, Okay, Okay.

1:12:50

I like okay. I just don't know what the store does other than swindle people, you know.

1:12:52

So I'm just confused. It does, it does magic.

1:12:57

It does magic. You're right, she just, she just added in the punishment aspect of the whole.

1:13:01

Thing.

1:13:04

She twisted it to the darkness. Yes, all right, I'll buy that, I'll buy it.

1:13:08

It's cute.

1:13:09

And then they have some really great Clarice outtakes about six or seven of them, all of them great outtakes where you're just like Eddie Murphy, he still has the chops and he could just go off.

1:13:19

No, it does, which is we're going to talk about that in a few minutes, Dan.

1:13:23

Yeah, no, I actually want. I'm sure that you've heard about it.

1:13:26

I actually want. I'm sure they used all the best ones, but I would have loved more because they're pretty short.

1:13:31

Yep, To be honest, I would have loved.

1:13:34

I would have loved more, Could have run them all.

1:13:36

What was the one movie we watched where the credits were the funniest part of the whole movie?

1:13:40

It was one movie we did. I don't remember, but I do remember that being a conversation, yeah, so looking back at this movie, I'm like there were a ton of good things in this that I really enjoyed yeah.

1:13:52

Yeah, I blew it, I ruined hate watching I saved.

1:13:56

Christmas. So you know which one do you want, dan Tony?

1:14:00

Good Christmas or a good movie to hate Suck it up again.

1:14:05

Well, I guess we don't have to worry about what we're doing next time, because we're going to do Santa with Muscles, yeah, which doesn't count as anybody's pick and so I will go first on talking about something I like.

1:14:16

This week, I watched most of Hot Rod.

1:14:19

Yes, okay, talk to me Dan.

1:14:22

Didn't care for it.

1:14:24

Come on, it's in your.

1:14:28

The thing about it was it was like almost like Napoleon Dynamite, yeah, but it was before, that, wasn't it?

1:14:34

I have no idea, I don't know.

1:14:36

I don't know if it came out before or after Napoleon Dynamite. Let me look at that.

1:14:39

You check that out? Yep, it felt like Napoleon Dynamite and it's just like he can't play that character.

1:14:45

He's just so. I just don't.

1:14:47

He's a terrible actor. I don't ever buy anything.

1:14:52

It was not. It was not before.

1:14:54

Yeah, I blew it and it was written by like a woman, pam.

1:14:57

Somebody Wrote that movie, yeah.

1:14:59

So they didn't write it, which is why I think it's funny.

1:15:02

I did tell you he's my least favorite part.

1:15:04

No, I know?

1:15:05

Okay, but what's his name? Playing the stepdad and the setup with stepdad?

1:15:09

Oh God, he's just so funny, ian.

1:15:14

Mcshane is so good when he does the throwing star.

1:15:19

Maybe that's the second fight he's throwing star.

1:15:23

I was just like get him in the shoulder, god.

1:15:28

It's so good, it's so, so good, and Bill Hader is so good in that movie.

1:15:32

Bill Hader, but who's really the best part of the movie.

1:15:35

Will Arnett is my favorite part of the movie.

1:15:39

Oh, I never got. I didn't watch that part. I watched maybe Wait wait, wait.

1:15:42

Okay, hold the phone. How early did you quit?

1:15:46

He, I quit right after he does the skateboard down the hill.

1:15:49

Right before they do Will Arnett, I saw him drive up Whiskey.

1:15:56

We do that one you like whiskey?

1:15:58

Well, no, there's like the one scene in the movie. I turned it off because I was like I saw the scene in the movie that's never going to get better, is?

1:16:04

He crashes into like this guy's trailer, and the guy comes out and he's like I'm going to kick your ass.

1:16:09

And then Danny McFright kicks the guy's ass and does like 10 jokes that are just like atomic funnier than the whole movie.

1:16:19

Yeah, and then you're just like oh, yeah, then he takes the hat at the end.

1:16:23

It's totally my hat. Oh my God, dan, this is probably the movie that I quote the second most in my life.

1:16:32

Oh wow, but you didn't get to my favorite scene, which is Will Arnett.

1:16:36

Are you going to watch it? You're not going to watch it.

1:16:38

I'm going to watch it, but you can tell me Okay, you watch it, I'm not going to ruin the joke, because it will ruin it.

1:16:43

No, tell me, just tell me the joke.

1:16:44

I don't care, it's not even funny.

1:16:47

Just tell me the joke. Isla Isla, isla Fisher.

1:16:52

Isla Fisher leaves him eventually.

1:16:55

Spoiler alert, and as she's walking away, Will Arnett is the Fisher, maybe is like, I don't know.

1:17:02

So, mrs Fisher, ms Fisher, I don't know if you should marry.

1:17:05

All right, we're done, I Fisher. So her character leaves him and it's just a good minute of Will Arnett screaming after the movie.

1:17:16

Babe, wait, babe, no, it's the funniest thing I've ever seen he commits to the bit.

1:17:22

He commits, and that's the thing is, there's a lot of commitment to the bit in this movie.

1:17:27

Yeah, I just I love.

1:17:30

I'm glad that you at least found some things funny, so that's yeah, yeah, I mean Bill Hader's funny in it.

1:17:37

He's great. He's yelling at his favorite Hater part.

1:17:41

And I think he's just. You know, she's very supposed to bring out the grape soda and go to the grape drink and it's great mix with cherry.

1:17:47

And then I think Danny McBride makes a joke about I can't, I can't do cherry or something.

1:17:53

There's a bunch of great stuff and it's, it is the right usage of Danny McBride.

1:17:58

Oh yeah, I am. I am in the camp of too much Danny's too much.

1:18:02

No, but it's, it's the perfect amount of Danny McBride.

1:18:05

He nails it. Everyone, everyone but Sam Burke nails that movie.

1:18:11

Danny McBride knows how to steal a scene he's like you're going to give me a scene.

1:18:16

I'm going to make this my scene. Yeah, I'm going to.

1:18:18

I'm going to knock this out of the park and that's.

1:18:21

You know, that's what. That's what. The one of the problems with Fahey Mountain was that they didn't really allow those characters, when they came in there, to chew up their scenes and just like okay.

1:18:29

It's not their movie, dan. All right, it's our movie.

1:18:32

We're pleased, don't just all right. Now I'm being mean.

1:18:34

Anyhow, I love hot rod. I'm glad you at least gave it a shot.

1:18:38

Yeah, maybe I'll watch more of it later. I think you should?

1:18:42

I think you should. Did you get to his dance scene At?

1:18:45

least I can't remember where that comes oh.

1:18:47

Dan you got just finished the movie, all right.

1:18:49

What are you doing over there? I watched the. I watched most of the beginning and I watched the ending and I was like, oh, he's kind of dumb.

1:18:55

Oh, yeah, you don't have to watch the ending. Yeah, I mean it's.

1:18:59

It's better than and please don't destroy it At least they have like a catharsis moment, jesus.

1:19:04

Oh yeah, he goes back and fights the dad again.

1:19:05

Yeah, no, that probably, and he crashes.

1:19:09

He doesn't make the jump, he almost dies.

1:19:12

I mean it's, it's nice, I think he does he does die?

1:19:15

You think he's dead.

1:19:17

I don't know.

1:19:18

Yeah, I think he does die, then he comes back by magic.

1:19:21

Okay, tony, what did you like?

1:19:23

this week I didn't watch anything that I liked as a whole, but family switch.

1:19:29

Family switch is trash.

1:19:31

Do not watch family switch Everybody.

1:19:34

It's a horrible. It's a horrible movie. But what I did?

1:19:39

Watch Dan Eddie Murphy's new trailer.

1:19:43

Did you watch this? Oh the, the teaser for Beverly Hills cop for XLF.

1:19:48

Oh my God, I'm so excited.

1:19:53

Wow, you're brave man. I'm excited, I'm I'm worried.

1:19:55

You didn't think it looked good. I mean it looked okay.

1:19:58

I just I don't.

1:20:00

I mean I hope, I hope he goes off.

1:20:02

I hope he goes off. You've been hurt because of Beverly Hills cop three.

1:20:05

You're saying, yeah, that movie's not good.

1:20:07

We know, dan, but one and two are two of my favorite movies of all time.

1:20:11

Bronson pin, what's his name?

1:20:15

Bronson show that show comes back.

1:20:18

What's so excited? Achwell, so excited for that the scene between the three of them and the car at the end of the trailer.

1:20:26

Oh, Tony gets to 5050. Tony gets the feels because he's I got the characters, I got the giggles.

1:20:32

So desperately.

1:20:34

I'm very excited for this movie I've got and I know this is probably bad I've got high, high hopes.

1:20:39

They are sky high, baby yeah.

1:20:43

You see, I'm probably in for disappointment. I don't ever judge anything with the feels.

1:20:46

Well, the rebel mode rebel moon trailer which we got coming.

1:20:52

Is it did it happen or is it it's?

1:20:55

theaters. Now it's.

1:20:57

It came to theaters the 15th and then streams sometime soon.

1:21:01

Okay, I mean the next week.

1:21:03

So yeah, I'm interested to see that.

1:21:06

It's some. Some people are hating it. It's very Zack Snyder.

1:21:10

The reviews are like either you seem to really like it or you really hate it, and I just.

1:21:15

It's interesting that he's so polarizing.

1:21:18

Yeah, you like the stuff and I generally don't make it through it, but I like the tree 300, which is generally people are like the 300 is the best, his best movie.

1:21:27

I hate that movie. I was trash, I think it's absolute garbage.

1:21:31

Absolutely, that's not true. Sucker Punch is way worse.

1:21:33

Sucker Punch 1000 times worse.

1:21:35

It's way worse than 300. You're like you have.

1:21:38

Let me be clear you have the five hottest girls in the world being hot 24, seven and your movie is beyond terrible it's unwatchable.

1:21:46

I can't even finish it. That doesn't make sense.

1:21:50

That movie doesn't make any sense. How?

1:21:52

could you?

1:21:53

you know you should just be able to watch the movie and like, oh, those girls are good looking.

1:21:56

You're like nope, the movie's on.

1:21:59

Not worth it. Not worth it, turn it off.

1:22:01

Yeah, I've never seen the whole thing. I really haven't.

1:22:05

And I think that movie, I think Sucker Punch, it's like it's, it's like, um uh, cats, right, it's.

1:22:14

It's something that you, you can't, you can't analyze what's wrong with it, because it just doesn't.

1:22:19

It's, it's. It's like, you know, it's like picking up, it's like picking up water.

1:22:24

We're just like, it's just gone. You're like, what am I supposed to say?

1:22:27

It's just gone.

1:22:28

What is happening here? Yeah, you're right.

1:22:31

So excluding that movie, the 300, is the worst movie.

1:22:36

It's so stupid. Oh, you like the stupid, the terrible.

1:22:40

You like the the heist movie, where the best character was a character that wasn't in the movie.

1:22:46

First of all, everybody like Army of the Dead was amazing.

1:22:49

All right, Everyone likes that movie. Dan, it was so bad.

1:22:52

I mean, yeah, it didn't get greater.

1:22:54

We live in a camp that's right next to this thing, and then there's fences, fences make no sense, make no sense, make no sense, whatever, whatever.

1:23:05

So we'll be back next week talking about Santa with muscles which will take us in.

1:23:12

I think that might be.

1:23:14

I think that. I think that's the end of the year.

1:23:16

I think that should be the end of the year.

1:23:18

And then we so you'll get started off.

1:23:20

Oh, I didn't take, okay, so I'll tell you what we're.

1:23:22

I don't have to tell you now, I'll tell you after we you tell me next week Santa with muscles, hulk Hogan.

1:23:27

I wrote. I wrote oh, I know exactly what we're doing.

1:23:31

Okay. All right, I'm excited. That is a good one.

1:23:34

It's a good one. I love you, brother, let's do it.

1:23:37

It's called family switch.

1:23:39

No, no, do not make me watch that movie again.

1:23:42

We're going to watch you. You know what we're going to do, tony. Well, that's going to be our Christmas movie for next year, next year, next year, we're going to do family switch with a year apart, I might be able to stomach it.

1:23:52

I'll give you a year, a year to forget, you know.

1:23:57

I'll never forget. I'll tell you that right now.

1:23:59

So like I said, leave us a thumbs up, that would be cool.

1:24:02

Or leave us a comment and I'll comment back at you.

1:24:04
