Tramphya is a treatment option for adults with moderate to severe Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis, administered via self-injection or IV infusion every four weeks. Patients must be trained for self-administration and undergo medical screening for infections and tuberculosis before starting treatment. Serious side effects, including infections and liver issues, are possible, and ongoing monitoring is essential. The content also features a detailed audience mailbag segment from The Rewatchables podcast, where listeners propose new categories such as “worst first date movie,” “horrible on-screen athleticism,” and “best homemade haircut,” often using humorous examples from films. Topics include mispronunciations, narrators in movies, and actor-related stunts, with fans suggesting awards like the “Clint Eastwood Ego Stroke” or “Harvey Keitel Traffic Stop” for awkward dating scenes. The exchange demonstrates how audience engagement drives creativity, with suggestions rooted in shared experiences and satire. These interactions highlight both the medical and cultural aspects of viewer participation, blending real-world health information with lighthearted, community-driven discussions. The episode celebrates fan-driven innovation and deepens the connection between the audience and the podcast through memorable, relatable content.
For adults with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis symptoms, every choice matters.
Tramphya offers self-injection or intravenous infusion from the start. Tramphya is administered
as injections under the skin or infusions through a vein every four weeks, followed by injections
under the skin every four or eight weeks. If your doctor decides that you can self-inject Tramphya,
proper training is required. Tramphya is a prescription medicine used to treat adults
with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease and adults with moderately to severely
active ulcerative colitis. Serious allergic reactions, increased risk of infections or
lower ability to fight them, and liver problems may occur. Before treatment, get checked for
infections and tuberculosis. Tell your doctor if you have an infection, flu-like symptoms,
or need a vaccine. Explore what's possible. Ask your doctor about Tramphya today.

mailbag cr month edition we had we we've only been doing the mailbags once a year and we decided
that's it's got to be quarterly from now on we get too many emails craig your only note was don't
have too many category questions yeah suggestions you know we got theme months there's a lot of
other fun stuff to talk about i want to ask cr questions while it's cr month oh i want to know
what your number 16 limitless is yeah that was on the list what's your version of number 16 limitless
um does it have to be from the 21st century sure that's a really good can i get can i think about
it for a minute or two you want to marinate on it yeah okay let me think about it okay uh oh i know
what it is we've already done it but obscenely high movie that would that i've actually watched
a lot of times this century would be margarine call which you guys have done
but margarine call i think gets would beat out a couple of movies that you'd be like damn you put
margarine call ahead of that you know what my version of number 16 limitless is limitless
yours is nomadland yeah what's yours craig uh probably some sort of 80s some zero zeros comedy
probably accepted with justin long it's a great movie not a bad movie interesting yeah do you
prefer that to waiting with justin long i've never seen waiting oh early ryan reynolds fever pitch a
movie i loved growing up that you despise oh that movie's awful you didn't know any better you grew
up on the west coast if it were about the cubs though would you like it no i wouldn't like that
movie under any circumstances i just didn't like it okay i mean but if it was about the cubs which
why like well it was boston that bothered you wasn't it yeah it was this friend group they
chased the 2004 ring and it felt inauthentic fallon's not even a boss she jumps off the
centerfield wall at the end great scene which by the way you'd break at least one ankle and then
runs across i believe she broke a heel in that scene they have a whole rom-com moment she's just
on the field for five minutes nobody's like we gotta get this yeah no it's it's one of the dumbest
movies ever um family park notoriously buttoned up security as we saw in the town that's right
justin long by the way had a moment there for like four years yeah die hard whatever sequel
that was uh that was the hacker one i think accepted the movie when him and drew barrymore
dated but didn't live in the same place it was like a long distance romance movie it's not not
terrible my wife's definitely gotten in the car you made a little comeback with barbarian yeah
yeah good scene in weapons good justin long cameo justin okay these are all actual emails from
actual listeners they emailed us at the rewatchables 33 at gmail.com as a long time rewatchables
listener this is from michael d i have noticed that cr inevitably gets very
wound up with about 40 minutes left in the pod this happens regardless of how long the pod is
and always before the last run of categories can you shed some insight on what makes cr act up like
a wound-up kid or mid-90s corn julio is it low blood sugar too much sugar nicotine withdrawal
lack of sleep or something else keep up the great work it probably comes right after you do like a
minute long zane low impression yeah i think it's excitement for the way part of it is building up
to zane it i actually think that in most of my pods the inverse is the problem is that i have
like an internal game clock and at 51 minutes i'm like you die out i've checked out yeah yes so i'm
trying to think of what so you're load managing a little bit is with the rewatchables because it
goes longer i know it's two hours so there's usually like but he's he's saying that i freak
out like 50 minutes in he's saying he seemed like you're storing energy with because you know this
big moment's coming you should have a sub like van's just sitting off and you call him in for a
10 minutes let's see our rest get some water take a pee yeah could we have people come off the bench
what if like we just did a run of rewatchables and i was in a shot like wearing a sweatsuit
like hanging out but never was on the pod and it was like we're just load managing chris
you know it was like that uh what's up with that the kenan thompson sketch where bill hater never
actually got to talk as lindsey buckingham ah sean i didn't like
it take mahoney come on in uh yeah i think that there's there's parts of the pod that i know i'm
gonna have to dial it up for and and and so i probably get get excited for that i find that
i'm at my best when we're about 90 minutes in and i'm getting a little groggy and and the self-edit
button's kind of gone away well that and that also coincides with picking nits yeah and that's
when you really shine yeah i also think day of day of the week is a huge factor friday afternoons is
is the best rewatch yeah friday fun day yeah
uh okay this is from steven b in perth australia australians love the rewatch yes we love australia
i always feel like australia and boston we got invited to go to australia by like a
chamber of commerce down there fun place a little bit of an attitude little like fuck you energy
i really respond to it would you do a live rewatchables in australia i mean we'd have
to do like two if we're gonna fly all the way down there rams niners
we have to have a couple of rewatches in australia
couple events it'd be funny if we just flew all the way down yeah just did one gig we just like
did the denzel movie equalizer too all right guys see ya showed up at a bar like was just like hey
you guys want to hear us talk about eating um okay this is from uh steven he said for a flex
category this is uh recently the when you mentioned the anti-apex award yes um and you
nominated tina turner because of her all-time stinker of a theme song for golden eye yeah
he's a golden eye so it's the rock bottom yeah so he said um he said it's rare because the lowest
point in someone's career there's a fair chance the movie is ordinary to bad and not rewatchables
worthy so he had some examples travolta and look who's talking my i would say perfect for travolta
mike myers and love guru brando for iona dr moreau cliffhanger as anti-apex for a rock climbing date
i thought that was good yeah boogie night
uh anti-apex new year's eve party um he kept going but uh but it did make me think like
for the ogs that we have which are cruz de niro pacino denzel and sly i think the five rewatchables
mount rushmore guys even though it's five what were the anti-apexes for them do we have to pick
movies that we have done rewatchables for no i i would say no rewatchables because we wouldn't do
i think it's oprah's sofa and war of the worlds even though i like war of the world oh in their
careers they had the least juice in their career or just the worst reverse apex mountain yeah
cruising the nadir mountain it's what cruz was doing as he was trying to revamp mission impossible
with mccorry and then still making kind of like oblivion edge of tomorrow's good but don't you
feel like oprah's sofa has to be involved in this yeah i guess that was when people were kind of
like wait is is cruz nuts and then spielberg stops working with him then yeah i think it's
right around there for him for de niro it's a little tougher to find figure out de niro i went
through his imdb in 2000 he had this great 70s run 80s up and down and then rallies back
in the 90s
he's killing it
he's making a million movies
but then in 2000
he just started
taking paychecks
and he did
Rocky and Bullwinkle
and I think that's
Nate Deer Mountain
for him
I feel like
in the 2010s
he kind of starts flirting
with like the
Dirty Grandpa era
where he's just doing
really cheesy comedies
yeah he's just available
right around 99-2000
him and Pacino
I think were available
I would
I dare say that
for some reason
the name is escaping me
but the gangster movie
he made for Barry Levinson
last year
that was apparently
Alto Knights
that's my
Dirty Grandpa is a movie
with Robert De Niro
and Zac Efron
those are the two leads
I mean come on
yeah
2016
Pacino
it's definitely
Author, Author
that was in the early 80s
it bombed
and it got people going
wait I thought Pacino
was the best actor we had
and he takes like
five years off
yeah and it starts
going sideways
Denzel was the toughest one
because even if you look
at the IMDB stuff
for Denzel
he doesn't really
have a stinker
so I'd have
to go with Virtuosity
a movie that I love
that we probably
will do on Rewatchables
but he is
given VD
by John Lithgow
and people didn't really
like that movie
and they're like
Denzel what are you doing
is that Ricochet
or Virtuosity
Virtuosity
oh maybe that's Ricochet
Ricochet is like
an absolute
oozing sore
of a movie
I'm getting my one word
Denzel movies
like Ricochet is insane
Ricochet is the one
with Lithgow
yes
so Virtuosity
is the one with Russell Crowe
yes
that's the one
yeah
I got my Denzels mixed up
but I don't
I personally don't think
Denzel has a Nadir
what about
Out of Time Deja Vu
I mean I revere
Out of Time
there you go
can't do it
so I don't know
maybe he just never
had a Nadir
well cause didn't you say
he's one of the only guys
who has a hit in every decade
for four decades
yeah
and he really doesn't
have stinkers
it's not like
like Sly Stallone
is the other one
Sly you could pick
multiple Nadirs
but it's probably
Stop or My Mom Will Shoot
it's like early 90s
he does Stop My Mom Will Shoot
and Oscar
back to back
the point is
we would never do these
on the Rewatchables
I think you would get to
like the end of a five year run
with Denzel Washington
and be like
this has been a quiet run for him
and then you look back
and you're like
actually there are three
really good movies here
yeah there's all hits
Jesse Palmer
parentheses
not that Jesse Palmer
okay
says
on the GoldenEye episode
during casting what ifs
for Joe Don Baker's character
Chris throws out
Dennis Quaid's name
Bill immediately
shoots it down
and says he's not old enough
and there's a bit of
smoldering tit for tat
between Bill and C.R.
C.R. says
I think Dennis Quaid
is just as good a suggestion
as Nick Nolte
and it gets a little testy
yeah
the following segment
Craig's is flex category
of the female sex killer
Mount Rushmore
admittedly a great
pullback Craig
and you can hear Bill
kind of off mic
telling Craig
good one Craig
we're gonna move C.R.
to the bench soon Craig
your time's up
he says
I couldn't help
but imagine C.R.
as Ed Norton's character
in Fight Club
looking at Bill
as Brad Pitt's character
is heaping praise
on new potential
top boy Craig
as Jared Leto's
angel face
and Chris saying to himself
I feel like destroying
something beautiful
he didn't have a question
I don't have an answer
that's perfect
thought that was really good
that would be fucking amazing
if you walked out of your house
one day
and Craig's just lying there
in a heap
and I'm like
that's what you get
for showing me up
Jesus
Dennis Quaid is the right age
Pat H. from New York City
he says
the only runner
to reach base
in the Far East
Fargo rewatchables
no hitter
I guess he liked the pod
yeah
is that the hot buffet
chicken fricassee
scene dissection
doesn't mention
the restaurant is carpeted
carpeted restaurants
seem like a
what's aged the best
what's aged the worst
split decision
to sort this out
I'd like to propose
some variation
of a Chris Ryan
Godfather 3
Donald Donnelly
acting from the tonsils
international
mobility
flex category
for what's aged the most
yeah
what's aged the most
so we would have
what's aged the most
what's aged the best
what's aged the worst
what's aged the most
something that is just
the most foreign
to right now
and sometimes we do have
ones that are
it's really a coin toss
if you would want to call
this best or worst
it really depends on your
your affinity
for indoor smoking
or whatever
you know and yeah
I would argue
what's aged the most
is probably just
what's aged the worst
yeah it's closer
to what's aged the worst
you could probably just
shoehorn that in there
yeah
but I really do like
the subject
I mean have you been
in a restaurant
that had carpeting
in your lifetime
I mean I haven't been
in a house that has
carpeting in a long time
yeah carpeting
I don't know what
happened with carpeting
I think they realized
I think once we had
more and more dogs
I think that ruined
like the actual
installed carpeting
I can still like
because you just have
no recourse
every once in a while
I'll go into a hotel
and you'll be like
someone smoked in here once
like
yeah
if it's got the carpet
and you're like
they can do a lot to it
but you're like
maybe in like 89
a guy had a cool in here
and I can still smell it
yeah
20 years later
yeah
that was one of the things
in the Room 237 documentary
where they get into how
there are no accidents
with Kubrick
and they talk about
the carpet
yeah
and it's like
in one scene
Danny the carpet's one way
and then in the same area
he changed the carpet
to symbolize something else
and it's like
there were no accidents
with Kubrick
I was at a hotel
in Palm Springs
a few months ago
and it has the exact same carpet
as the Shining Hotel
did twins come out
and say
Craig
we'd like to play with you
hey Craig
this is from
Dan O
it's Dan O
not Dan O
okay
like Jack O
I know you talk a lot
about actors
who have no experience
playing the sport
they're playing in a movie
there should be a
rewatchable flex category
for horrible
on-screen athleticism
I don't know why
we don't have this
to be honest
I nominate Tim Robbins
as the namesake
for Bull Durham
but would happily accept
Freddie Prinze Jr.
or Wesley Snipes
and he says
love story
JFK Jr. show
you guys watching this
I'm not
you're not watching this
I'm not watching it
it's 90s New York
what are you doing
I don't really watch
Ryan Murphy shows
it's 90s New York
and the music
I know
Phoebe wouldn't watch that
I mean like
we just haven't checked it out
I think she watched
a couple episodes
yeah
Phoebe not liking that show
I didn't say she didn't like it
I just don't think she's
I think she's only watched
a couple episodes
well he mentions
love story
they have pickup football games
played in Central Park
in episodes one and four
that display some of the worst
football throwing motions
by a QB ever caught on film
you can prove that
I've actually mentioned this
with my wife
how bad it was
the only explanation
the actors never
fell to football
whatever
so
nominees for this award
and who it should be
named after
he mentioned three good ones
a couple others
that I put some time
into this
and I think I did a mailbag
once about this
Mitch Kramer
and Dazed and Confused
the pitching
sure
they do their best
to cut around him
yeah
so that was the
Freddie Prinze
summer catch thing
the wind up
and then cutting
to the guy behind him
where it's clearly
this
stunt double pitcher
because you know
the guy couldn't throw
and isn't Wiley Wiggins
kind of haunted
by like the amount of criticism
his pitching got
he should be
I think it's all justified
Roy Hobbs' son
at the end of the natural
Roy Hobbs is in the cornfield
he had just hit the home run
that set all the fireworks
and then
it cuts to him
with his bastard son
his Jon Snow
Jon Snow Hobbs
and he's having a catch
and the kid's kind of
doing one of those
yeah
underrated one
Denunzio and Caddy
Shaq
the other caddy
and Caddy Shaq
has one of the worst
swings of all time
trying to win the
Caddy Shaq open
Snipes and Whiteman
can't jump
this is one
we've gotten emails
about before
can I just hit
pause
this is just accepted
that you guys think
Wesley Snipes
can't play ball
and Whiteman can't jump
I think
they taught him
how to play
I think he was
an athletic guy
we argued about this
when we did this
I think we did
he was an athletic guy
that they basically
had no basketball background
and you could tell
by the way he dribbles
and some of the stuff
but I always felt like
Woody and Wesley
were like actual
ball players
who like they picked
because they wouldn't
have to do that
no we did in the research
he never played basketball
didn't he not know
how to play baseball either
didn't they cut around him
in major league
I think he was athletic
but not athletic
there's like no shots
of him throwing a ball
in major league
because it was so bad
they couldn't use it
yeah but he's also
like his character's
whole thing is like
he's like kind of
a showboat
in center field
so I don't think
he ever has to like
gun somebody down
at second base
yeah
one of the best ones
for this was
they taught Rob Lowe
to skate for Young Bud
he'd never skated
and he's actually pretty good
yeah
like it gave me hope
I could learn how to skate
in six weeks
there's a really famous
one online
there was a movie
that came out in 2015
a comedy called The Duff
so that was my next one
I had
oh yeah
yeah yeah
that one's really bad
it's with Mae Whitman
the girl who plays
I like Mae Whitman
Ann Veal in Arrested Development
yeah
The Duff is an insane
concept for a movie
but there is a scene
where a quarterback
is playing catch
on the field with somebody
and it looks like
he's throwing with
the opposite hand
shit
he's standing next to him
and he's getting the ball
like when like
Drake Mays warming up
to go in
and he's just like
doing this back
he's having like
mini seizures
every time he throws the ball
yeah it's like
he has like
a completely torn
rotator cuff
and they made him
film it anyway
my favorite moment
recently with this
was watching Paradise
the second season of Paradise
did you watch that?
I got off the train
okay
so in the second season
they
there's a whole thing
that's at Graceland
and five guys
who were like
going across the country
show up there
and they are
playing football
but like it's
it is literally like
are you guys playing
like Australian rules football
or rugby or something
because they're like
tossing it underhanded
to each other
and just giggling a lot
and I'm like
I don't think this
would ever happen
I very carefully
watched Top Gun Maverick
recently
and I watched
the football scene
when they're playing football
in opposite ways
you were literally
watching Top Gun Maverick
when we walked in
well I was
it was on
yeah
Top Gun Maverick
and Florida Kentucky
on at the same time
yeah
the athletes
in the, what did they call it?
It's shotgun football or something
Or if he had some term for it
Is it dogfight football?
Dogfight football
Yeah, because it's two balls
I really wanted one of the athletes to be bad
But it was actually like pretty compelling and athletic
I mean, I went back and watched the volleyball scene
From the original Top Gun
It's not that bad
Because there's a lot of doubles
When they cut away from kind of wide shots
It's doubles who looked really good
It's just also a lot of guys wearing jeans
Which is just so insane
5'8 cruise in jeans
Lofting way up over the net
To like block people
It's pretty good
A couple more
Leo and Basketball Diaries
Where do you stand on that?
It's been a while since I've seen it
But I'm sure it drove Wahlberg crazy
It was a lot of like dribbling like this
Like Michael J. Fox
Who we got to mention too
And Teen Wolf
Field of Dreams dad
We've talked about him before
Just came up recently in a movie
We've talked about Tom Cruise's War of the Worlds
That's a tough one
Yeah
Famous one
I actually went
Because I googled to make sure I didn't miss anything
And there was a
Reddit thread defending Tom Cruise
In War of the Worlds
That's saying that
That's what the character
That's how the character would have thrown the ball
Tom Cruise is actually a great athlete
Because he's throwing it too hard
Or because he just doesn't have good performance
It's basically like Tom Cruise made a choice
For this scene
Because he's playing catch with his son, right?
Oh, so okay
He took it easy on his son
Yeah, he made a choice
The Bennett-like Beckham girl
This movie called Slugger's Wife
With Mike O'Keefe and Rebecca DeBarnay
Is a home run hitter
Really bad swing
It's really
It's like kind of single-handedly ruined the movie
And then
One of my favorites
John C. Reilly in For Love of the Game
Which I asked Costner about once
And he is basically like
He was the catcher
And they very carefully cut around him
You never actually see him catching
And there's obvious stunt doubles
And he's not throwing back to Costner
He never played sports
Yeah
But the
I mentioned Bennett-like Beckham
Seagal running
Is the other one
Where I don't know if that could be
We have two named after Seagal already
But that's Seagal
When he runs with his hands up
And does whatever
So who should
This category be named after?
I gave you 20 nominees
Tim Robbins I feel bad for
Because he
He said he threw out his arm
Like two days into Bull Durham
Yeah he also like
I think does a good job
Doing Ebby's
Pronounced motion
Like his wind-up
Is like idiosyncratic
And he does a good job with that
He just
He just
He left it all on the field
And left his rotating cup
I don't think it's that bad
Tim Robbins
Should we do John C. Reilly?
I have a hard time saying Wesley Snipes
For some reason
It's not Mitch Kramer?
Again they cut around him
Poor guy
You could
You worried about Mitch Kramer?
Well if I was like 15
And I was in one of the best movies ever made
And everybody just remembered me
For having a shitty
Like pitching motion
I think the Duff is not famous enough
For it to have the title
No it's not famous enough
Maybe we
Tom Cruise?
Maybe we narrow it down to a final four
And put it up for a vote
Oh yeah and we can actually show the clips
Then we're like
Hey they voted for this
Yeah
So Wiley Wiggins
Tom Cruise
John C. Reilly
And who's the other fourth?
Who's the fourth?
Do we want the Duff in there?
No Freddie Prinze Jr.
Has to be one of the four
One of the four
Okay
What movie is that from?
It's from Summer Catch with Jessica Biel
Oh I haven't seen that
Yeah
Yeah
You'd probably like it
Sitting in the cape
Jessica Biel looks great
I think it's Jessica Biel
Is it Jessica Biel or Jessica Alba?
I think it's Jessica Biel
I can't remember
Yeah well
So we'll figure out four
We'll do a vote
Okay
This is from Russ
Another good
These questions were really good
My wife is a hairdresser
And flies into a blind rage
Anytime in a movie
Where there's an emergency haircut
In the bathroom
With kitchen soap
Scissors
And the outcome
Is a stunning haircut
Yeah
Examples
Born identity
Matt Damon
Gives Franca Patente
What was her name?
Franca Patente
Yeah
It's one of the
A cute shorty
When they're on the run
It's one of the hottest things ever
He dyes her hair
Working girl
Melanie Griffith
Getting the pre-Harrison Ford
Meetup hairdo
From Joan Cusack
Sicario
Day of the Soldado
You ever seen that one CR?
I have seen that
A couple of times
Benicio Del Toro
Giving the cartel daughter
The short hairdo
Before attempting
To cross the border
And there's a couple
Other good examples
We did in
Legend of Billie Jean
She goes in
With the kitchen scissors
And comes out
And looks amazing
I'd throw in
Richard Kimball
In the hospital room
With a pair of
Like cuticle scissors
And a disposable razor
Coming out
Looking like
Fucking Harrison Ford
Right
And like a three dollar
Hair darkener
Yeah I have like a nick
On my upper lip right now
That was just from like
Shaving the other day
With like a nice razor
Was that a shaving accent?
Yeah
Oh thank god
I was worried it was a hooker
Oh god
I should have more faith
In you sir
Yeah thanks bud
He suggests the
Vidal Baboon Award
For best homemade haircut
I don't know if this
Would happen enough times
But I do think
We should monitor this
Going forward
Did she cut her hair
In Gone Girl?
Well she breaks
Her own teeth
So I feel like
Whatever she wants to do
To her appearance
Maybe there's some sort of
Like
Best bastardation
Of home beauty care
Or something
I don't know
There's some sort of idea
I think that one of the
Things that really bothers me
Is when you don't have
The tools to do it
And then you come out
And you're like
Look I look great
Andy says
Best podcast
In the history of the medium
You guys are the greatest
Thanks Andy
That's really nice
I did have a nitpick
He's like that's it
Of course he had a nitpick
With Apex Mountain
Of dinner scene assassinations
Which we talked about
On Sicario
We said
Alejandro going in
And murdering the guy
We said that was the best
And he was like
What about Michael
Killing Salazzo
And McCluskey
He had the lead up
I don't want him
Coming out of the bathroom
With just his cock in his hands
Colmenza showing him the gun
That has to be
Apex Mountain
Louis restaurant
I agree Sicario's up there
But how could it not be
The Godfather
He's right
Both acts of vengeance
Godfather's just a bigger
More important movie
Godfather wins
Okay
I think there's also just more
There's actually more drama
In that Godfather scene
There's more build up
And suspense
I'm gonna go
I'm gonna zag
I didn't see Michael
Corleone killing anyone's kids
You know
So until he gets there
Until he has like
Salazzo's kids
In front of him
You're not seeing Alejandro
Well there's some
Backstory with Godfather
Where they were gonna like
They wanted to replace Pacino
And they shot that scene
And that was the scene
That saved him
From getting fired
From
Oh really
Big shot Rob Evans
And the Godfather
So I don't know
Fair points
Oh this is a nice email
From Keith W
In Portland, Oregon
What are you doing
One of your favorite places
Home of Chuck Klosterman
The beauty of being
An active member
Of this rewatchables club
Is the shared shorthand
We should stop asking
What item we want to have
And start asking
What item would identify
As a fellow
A fellow fanatic
Of our favorite movie
Updated category
The secret handshake
What piece of memorabilia
Would only a rewatchables
OG recognize
Yeah
That's good
The goal is to identify
A prop meaningless
To the masses
But a tell
For somebody else
Somebody who's rewatched
The movie too much
A few secret handshake examples
Heat
A copy of
Stretch fractures
In titanium
Oh that's good
Vision Quest
Loud and Swain's
Red Apex
Wrestling high tops
Which we talked about
On that pod
We sure did
For five solid minutes
Sicario
The blue and pink
Cartel money bands
Yes
Or the Indian Creek cigs
Talk amongst yourselves
It's less about
The resale value
Of the object
More about the
If you know you know
Badge of honor
It's a really good one
It's a really good one
I almost feel like
We changed the memorabilia category
And if the movie doesn't have it
We just don't even do it
Yeah
Just recently
I would love
Jerry's
Like
Salesman of the month
Picture that's behind
Jerry in Fargo
I should do that
Where I'm like
CR month picture
Of myself
Above my head
Well for Sicario
What was the bar
When Emily Blunt
Meets Bernthal
Oh it's like
It's not wild bills
It's something
Wild something
Something pony
Or something like that
Yeah you get like
The matches from that
Sure
I like the deep cut
Memorabilia
I think is a good idea
Yeah the secret handshake's good
Yeah this is good
Good email
Tyler Davis
Watched to live and die
In LA last night
And it's a CR special
If I've ever seen one
Parentheses
Complimentary
I feel like the movie
Presents the pod
With a perfect new
Category idea
Character most likely
To want Quentin Daly
To start over
Michael Jordan
Most likely candidates
Big Nick from
Dead of Thieves
And Jim from
The Tower
Big Nick
Big Nick would be like
Yeah
How many
You think
You think Sizemore
And Heat probably
Oh yeah
Big Nick was probably
Like a big Tim Thomas guy
For the Clippers
He was just like
They just gotta play it more
That's a double double
Every night
Okay I don't know
If this works as a category
But I like it as
Keeping it in our back pocket
I really like that
Mike D says
In honor of CR month
I have a suggestion
For a new category
What item from
Midnight Run
Would help the protagonist
The most
So we would just
Be doing the movie
And it would be like
What Midnight Run
Accessory would help him
He said
A money belt
Containing 300,000
You can't use it
Until the start
The very end of the movie
To start a new life
A plate of chorizo and eggs
Alonzo Mosley's
Stolen batch
Whatever
Did you have any others
For this
Yeah
I only sent you
Three questions
This is one of them
So I would
I would definitely say
That any movie
Where somebody
Is sacrificed
For a principal
Would be great
To have the money belt
Because that's the entire
Point of Midnight Run
But it's
Also just funny
To imagine
Agnes getting it
At the end of Hamnet
It's just like
Hey
I rode fucking Hamlet
We got paid off
She's not crying anymore
Now she's crying
Tears of joy
She has a plate of chorizo
And eggs
She's just
Yeah
Castaway would be
The chorizo and eggs
Yeah
Like oh my god
This is amazing
This is the best
Yeah
And then anything
I mean
The Alonzo Mosley FBI thing
Is just
Try to think of like
Where that would work
The best is
It's tough
It's like
This is
This question made me want to do Midnight Run again because we did it, I think, first
you've seen it right
I love that movie yeah
one of my favorites
it's just completely ageless
of course
it's so good
it's one of the few
the movie came out in 1989
so it's 37 years old
and I just feel like
it just
doesn't
it's not like
oh they would
like you don't think about
oh they'd have cell phones now
all that stupid shit
it just works perfectly
it's just basically
the best casting
of a buddy action movie ever
the chemistry between them
it'll last forever
I'm gonna shoot you
through the glass
let's take a break
and then we'll keep going

alright this is from
Nick in Columbus
on the Sicario pod
you guys were struggling
with finding a role
for Cruz or Hanks
where did we land on that
I don't remember
I think we were
I think it was Hanks
for who
actually I don't even know
if we came to a conclusion
on that
we kind of
Cruz was Brolin
no didn't we say
Cruz as Bernthal
but it's gotta be the lead
right
or a lead
yeah
that's what we said
oh is that what we said
it's gotta be a lead character
well CR mentioned earlier
in the pod
this is Nick
that many studios
wanted the K character
to be a guy
that makes 90s Cruz
perfect for this
yeah
the firm
few good men
yeah few good men
the guy learning the world
it's not quite
what it appears to be
yeah
you can even go earlier
to like Rain Man
Born on the 4th of July
or Cruz
Cruz is good at playing innocent
yeah
but then the only question is
then when you get the bar
the hookup scene gone wrong
you can't
would lead to some of the best
moments of Cruz's career
a love scene
where you have to be too into it
and then he realizes
something wrong
and he tells them
they have to stop
and then Emily Blunt
could have played
the Bernthal character
that's right
she's the one who picks him up
and like doing some wine dancing
yeah
but instead of a heated hookup
they're just lying in bed laughing
and then he's like
no no no stop stop stop stop
another question
oh this is a great one
from Pete in Massachusetts
this is a
this is a two part question
he's listening to
Sicario Pod
hearing Bill mispronounce
Floyd Gondali's name
a character from his supposed
favorite movie
the past 30 years
it's Gondoli right
Gondoli
for some reason
I was just reading
and I said
I just fucked up
I think we're finally at the point
to initiate a new
rewatchables category
for excellence in the field
of mispronunciation
granted
it would be awarded
to Bill 10 out of 10 times
but it needs to be established
yeah
I'd suggest that
Van Damme
Van Damme
did Bill just have
an under seizure award
for most of his career
it's just inexcusable
massacring of a name
and he wanted
like Craig
to just throw out
a challenge flag
when I throw out
like a
when you say
Theon Lovejoy
yeah
you just have a flag
like you're
like Mike McDaniel
just throwing it out
to stop the pod
and then he said
it would be great
if we could get like the
remember that Nickelodeon show
where people would get slimed
you can't do that on television
just get shot with a water gun
every time you do Gondoli
there's a dunk tank
yeah
my answer for
mispronunciations
as always
is
it's hard to
host
there you go
I just fall back
on that all the time
he keeps going though
he said
if you want another
challenge flag category
I'd like to suggest
the Bangkok
Coral Beck
tip-off award
for is Craig
actually a serial killer
who will one day
have his own
Netflix true crime documentary
he said
in the Scarapod
this would be when
Craig casually suggested
that Alejandro
murdered the cartel's
leader wife and children
in front of him
was that sadistic enough
that after
rescuing his family
he killed the kink pit
too quickly
and should have let it
quote
sit for a minute
let him marinate on it
this guy dropped his daughter
in a vat of acid
he's just gonna shoot him
in the head
not enough
so he said
once the ringer body
starts showing up
behind drywall
in an Arizona spec house
there will be a lot of
we should have seen this coming
in memoriam pieces
about Craig's victims
I don't know
I'm not against it
because this came from Denzel
right in American Gangster
where he shoots that guy
in the head
he shoots Idris
he should have shot him
in the chest
laughing
why
so he could see him
see him die
oh he'd do the
De Niro on Wayne Grove
yes
two taps and then one
yeah
you want the person
to know that you killed them
if he gets shot in the head
they don't know
yeah what else
what else
it's letting him off easy
Fausto like five seconds
to think about like
wow my family went before me
this is crazy
not enough
I didn't quite know
to do this one
but I'm gonna read it anyway
from Aaron in Edmonton
thanks for a great pod
had the idea for a category
what change would make
this movie 10% better?
sort of a take on recasting actor, city, or director,
like how Heat would be 10% better
if they either dropped the Portman storyline
or had Vincent doing coke.
Or Gangs of New York, if Cameron Diaz was recast.
I mean, that would be 30% better.
Or any number of movies that should have ended differently.
10% is tough.
I almost think it would have to be like 4% or 3%.
Yeah, but it's good because it's not something as big as recasting.
Because a recasting would, like you said,
really significantly change the texture of the movie.
It's like. A tweak.
Yeah, or like the music in this chase scene was bad.
Like GoldenEye is a really good example.
That first, like, driving through the Alps moment that they have.
And I was like, oh, the music in this, it just stinks.
Or the song, the GoldenEye song itself.
You're like, oh, that could have been better.
Yeah.
But then we're basically just in What's Aged to Worst.
It's kind of a nitpick, I guess.
Yeah, it's a nitpick, but it would be like,
hey, if you made this change, you get like this much better.
So maybe in recasting couch, that category,
you have the option to just. Just do the 10% better.
Okay.
All right.
Brian in Bethesda.
I'm glad he brought this up,
because I've been thinking about it a lot.
He said, on more than one occasion,
you've been discussing a movie with the narrator
and have said something along the lines of,
I normally hate narrators in movies,
but this is a rare exception where it works well.
I have said this many times.
Yes.
He points out that there's been a lot of movies
that have narration that we've loved on the rewatchables.
That's a fair point.
Best movie of all time, Shawshank.
These are his words.
Best mob movie.
Goodfellas, Vegas, Casino, Vietnam, Apocalypse Now,
80s, Ferris Bueller's Day Off,
Dude Movie, Fight Club,
Coming of Age, Stand By Me,
Cult, Big Lebowski,
Christmas, Christmas Story,
Fairytale Movie, Princess Bride,
Rise and Fall, Wolf of Wall Street,
Best Premature Ejaculation Movie, Forrest Gump.
This is his list.
He says, yeah, it's cringeworthy
when a movie is a bad narrator.
He uses one as a crutch.
It was so bad in the original Blade Runner,
Ridley Scott later removed her.
It supports narration,
but it also can be valuable.
Henry Hill, Red,
hoping the Pacific would be as blue as his dreams,
so on and so on.
What's an example of narration that you hate?
So here's the thing.
I think I have to tweak my opinion on this
because there's too many examples
of narration being good.
I think my stance needs to be
there's nothing worse than bad narration.
Yeah.
Maybe that's where I need to land.
Yeah.
I think I'm just wrong.
I'm going to admit defeat.
I mean, it's a sign of growth.
I'm an anti-narrator,
but he just listed
12 movies that I really like
that have narration.
Yeah, it feels like a crutch.
If the movie's bad,
it's a crutch to try to make the movie better,
but if the movie's already good,
the narration isn't a problem.
Yeah.
It's just a quality.
And he didn't even mention
like Outside Providence has narration.
Like there's a bunch of like
lower level movies that I love that have it.
This year, Train Dreams.
There's another one where it's like
there will be the introductory
and concluding narration,
but not,
it doesn't like,
you don't have it throughout the film.
Yeah.
And I think that that has like
a special category,
but yeah,
I was just wondering like,
what's a movie that you've seen
that has narration that you're like,
this sucks.
I really hate it even more for documentaries.
And I feel like when you're doing a documentary,
the goal should always be not to have narration.
And if you have narration,
you're probably doing it wrong.
Can I ask you a follow-up question?
Yeah.
Would you like to see narration
come back for movie trailers
and go back to like in a world?
Oh, yeah.
I,
first of all,
I would redo movie trailers
completely forever.
From how we're doing them.
From,
we did 45 years of us showing
too much of the movie in the trailer.
I like the,
when we don't,
it's like,
oh, this is coming,
but I don't really know what it,
like,
I actually was one of the few people
that liked the Devil Wears Prada 2 trailer.
Because I don't really know what it's about.
Sure.
But they showed us everyone that's in it.
And I'm like, okay.
Yeah, I'm in.
That's all I needed.
Yeah, you don't want to tease any of the plot.
You just want to get people excited
by showing the vibe of the movie.
There's been a couple movies
where I've seen the trailer
and I'm like, okay,
guess I don't need to go.
Yeah.
But if you had like a,
I don't know,
if you had something like,
you know,
they were two outcasts.
He was a writer.
I really miss that.
She was just a little farm girl
and he wound up right in Hamlet.
This is their story.
I mean,
I don't think that would work,
but like,
I think it could be useful in other.
He was a Colombian lawyer assassin
and his daughter was dropped in acid.
Well, actually, Craig,
I believe he is from Mexico.
One of my Instagram things
that always gets suggested to me
is like late seventies,
early eighties,
ABC commercials.
Yeah.
Where they're like,
you know,
In Vegas, Dan Tan is busting two call girls.
But it's that Paul Thomas Anderson's dad.
Yeah.
Ernie Anderson is doing it.
I just want to go back in general to the cigarette narration boys.
Can we have a flex category that's the Ernie Anderson?
What would you do to narrate the trailer for this movie?
Because there would be some that would be really fucking funny.
Maybe we should include that in the Zane Lowe Wayne Jenkins.
Yeah.
Or Ernie Anderson's trailer.
Yeah, or Ernie Anderson's trailer.
He was from the wrong side of the tracks in Boston.
She was working at a bank.
They met at a robbery.
The town coming soon.
And now his friends want to kill her, literally.
Isabel Lopez.
It's probably the smartest email we've gotten.
I like that you do first and last names.
Not holding back on these emailers.
Yeah, well, you put your name in.
I'm going to read it.
She loves the show.
She was listening to the Martian episode,
which we did, I think, six years ago.
During COVID.
With JC.
Bill says,
you need a special category for the postcard
Apex Mountain Apex.
He called it the I Still Got It Mountain.
Oh, yeah, sure.
She said, there's a term for that in math.
It's called the local maximum.
It's the relative high point on a graph
that's not the highest peak.
I love the idea and think it actually applies
to a lot of actor films you guys cover on the show.
And she included a graph that, for some reason,
didn't get dropped into my document.
Can I clean up the category name a little bit here?
The Kawhi Leonard Pre-Suspension,
Pre-Suspension.
Push.
The Kawhi Leonard Last Gas Apex?
Right before your contract gets voided,
you just fucking let everybody know
you're still the best player in the world.
So Matt Damon, The Martian's a great one.
What are some other ones, though?
Well, let me think about it.
So this is kind of like a post-prime.
You get your ring in your mid-30s,
like LeBron 2016, Steph 2022 kind of vibe.
Steph 2022.
That's a great one.
Steph, that's really good.
Yeah, that's even better than Kawhi.
Well, the thing is,
is that Steph never really fell off.
Kawhi was like kind of gone for four years there,
and now it's just like,
I'm the best two-way player.
You're getting paid by Bomber right now.
Me?
Yeah.
A little aspiration money.
Go to CR's account.
I'm sorry if I just want to fix carbon emissions, dude.
Liam Neeson and Taken would be a good one for this.
That's a good one.
Is it like Keanu Reeves, John Wick?
Yes.
Perfect.
Yes.
It's another good one.
We'll keep an eye on this.
Next time it comes up.
Thanks, Isabel.
This is from Jim.
This is a really good one.
I didn't send you guys any of these
because it's funnier to hear the natural reactions.
The first time we did this,
I accidentally sent you the document,
and CR knew everything that was coming,
and I was bothered about it for like six months.
The downside is that you hear a lot of like,
let me give that some thought.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm pro reactions.
He says,
thanks for the rewatchables.
It's been my go-to since the first heat dropped.
I want to propose a new category,
the,
you accept this character's organ donation award
for any character who dies in the movie.
So like Richard Chance from To Live and Die.
Right.
He said,
he has Yes, I Would,
Goose,
Rachel Banks,
Ray Merriman,
Dickie Greenleaf,
Neil from Dead Poets,
Dr. Beth Garner,
French guy from Unfaithful,
and Carl from Die Hard.
French guy.
Neil from Dead Poets.
It's a weird one.
He shot himself in the head
and all the organs were,
So is this just who's not an alcoholic award?
Here's his no, I would not group.
Wayne Groh,
Quint,
Eddie Barzun,
Doug Coughlin,
anyone from Alien,
Ann Edna,
Buffalo Bill,
Doc Holliday,
or Jenny Gump.
Doc Holliday,
you would get sicker
getting Doc Holliday's organs.
Why do I all of a sudden have TB?
Then he said,
in Bird Thought,
we trust.
That's pretty good.
That's great.
I don't know if that's in everything,
but I think we backpocketed it.
I think that's in the flex,
I think that's in the flex category.
Would I accept an organ donation?
Or maybe it's like,
whose organ would you want from this movie?
Yeah.
I think if we did an organ donation draft,
I think Quint's the first pick
for the one I would have want.
He's just been drinking for 25 straight years.
Oh, yeah.
And smoking.
And has,
definitely has melanoma
from being out on a boat
with no sun tan.
Yeah, I would think he would have
the most things wrong with him.
Yeah.
Would you say Chuck,
The shark probably put him out of his misery,
honestly.
Chuck Dolan from Castaway?
Is he a yes or a no
for organ donation?
I should.
He's on that island for five years,
had a really bad staph infection
in his mouth.
Fasting is good for you, though.
You know,
he's been in ketosis for two years.
Oh, true.
That's right.
He's Clary.
His liver would be great.
He's pretty clean.
Do you think the first time
he has like a Coors Light
when he gets back,
it just blows his mind?
Like, he just gets completely tanked?
Oh, yeah.
Oh, I would say like
half a glass of wine.
Yeah.
His first trip to McDonald's
sets him back a week.
Adam Chu says,
I have a suggestion
for you.
I have a suggestion
for a new category award,
the Clint Eastwood
Ego Stroke Award
for the detail or scene
that's clearly just there
to stroke the person's ego.
Named after Clint Eastwood
in The Mule,
who plays an octogenarian
who has two separate threesomes.
Is this a thing that happened?
I don't think I've ever
seen The Mule.
I don't think I have either.
I gotta admit,
I don't remember that
from The Mule,
and I think I saw it
in the theaters.
Clint had to make sure
we knew that
not only does he still fuck,
he fucks with stamina.
This guy might have
a director's cut
in the embassy.
He said,
other again,
other examples are
The Rock and Vin Diesel
never losing a fight
in every choice
Steven Seagal has ever made,
which we've talked about.
Steven Seagal,
every movie,
he just,
nobody even lands
a punch on him.
He just completely
demolishes everyone.
Vin Diesel's a good one, though.
We've never seen
Vin Diesel lose a fight
in any of the
Fast and Furiouses.
Not against this award.
I might throw it
in the flexes.
Clint has priors, too.
I always found, like,
the Rene Russo-Clint Eastwood
in The Line of Fire
relationship to be, like,
putting a little layer
of cream to it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Now she's gonna look
back at me
because she loves it.
She can't get enough.
She's looking back
wondering if you're
still driving
because you're 78.
Somehow you're still
in the Secret Service.
Connor from California
said,
what would be
the Mount Rushmore
movie recommendations
that would almost guarantee
the female recipient
you were interested
would not have interest
not only in seeing the movie
but ever speaking
to you again?
Like,
To Live and Die in L.A.
is a really good one
to start with.
This is a phenomenal question.
He said,
he nominates
Bad Lieutenant,
Happiness,
8mm,
and Come and See.
I don't think we're gonna do
Come and See
on the rewatchables.
And he said,
I got to thinking
how to repurpose this
into a category
and I give you the
Harvey Keitel Traffic Stop
Bad Lieutenant Award
for worst possible scene
to watch on a first date.
I know a guy
who took a girl
to go see the
Romanian abortion drama
four months,
three weeks,
and two days
on a first date.
Oh my God.
I think Hereditary
would be up there.
That's a good one.
Death Wish?
Yeah,
Craig's still scarred
from Death Wish.
First 20 minutes
of Death Wish,
you're pretty tough.
I mean,
even I walked in there
with my head hanging low.
I was like,
I feel weird about this one.
And I think we like
kind of scooted
past the first 20 minutes.
Any movie that came out
over. I'll never see Jeff Goldblum
the same.
Yeah, true.
Yeah.
I think Monster's Ball
is the answer to all of this.
Yeah.
It's what it's. Because we had that
other category about
worst thing to watch
with your in-laws.
That one was. Sure.
When you're all
going to the movies together.
Yeah.
I think Monster's Ball
wins all of this.
It checks all the boxes.
Manchester by the Sea,
tough first date probably.
Well,
there's a difference
between like
what's one that a woman
will probably just be like,
you gotta be fucking kidding me
with this
versus something
that's horrifying.
Right, right.
I guess this is more
like Species.
Hereditary
and Manchester by the Sea
I think are like
real bummers.
Is Species a terrible
first date movie?
I don't know.
Or is it not bad?
It's tough
when you have them
really come over
and have some ramen
and watch Species.
Because you can't really. This seems great.
You can't be like,
how good did Natasha Hentrich look?
Like that's immediately. The really gratuitous
naked 80s movie scenes
are tough.
Yeah, when she's nailing
Alfred Molina
and you're like,
hey, how about that?
Pretty cool.
You like that?
I was trying to think
of fights that I had
after movies
with people
I was either dating
or on a date with
or fights about the movie
that whatever.
And one of them was
I saw Chasing Amy
with. A girl I was dating
in Boston a little bit.
It was like a little. That really. Weren't serious,
but dating.
Okay.
And she liked the movie
more than I did
and I really hated the ending.
And we argued about it
for an hour.
It wasn't like angry arguing,
but it made me like her less
that she liked the ending
so much.
I missed that though.
Because I was like,
that's fucking stupid.
I feel like once you get
to a certain age,
you're just kind of like,
did you like that?
And then it's like,
no.
And I was like,
all right.
I'm not going to fight about it.
I also saw Mad Love
with Drew Barrymore
and Chris O'Donnell
with a date
and they got choked up
at the end
and I was like,
wow.
I can't believe
you got choked up
at that movie.
It's now hitting me.
One of the worst nights
with my wife
was seeing The Master.
She really did not enjoy
that movie.
Oh, really?
She was just like,
you have to be fucking kidding me.
Like,
why did you take me to that?
Master is probably
the most polarizing good movie
because I don't like it either.
You don't?
Oh, I love that movie.
I was just watching
a clip from it the other day.
I don't think that movie
is a fun hang.
And I was like,
I wonder if we would
ever do that,
but yeah.
I respect it.
Sure.
What did you think of Begonia?
Did you see Begonia?
I don't watch Yorgos anymore.
He's lost my faith and trust.
Me too, man.
Sold my tickets.
Really?
Yeah.
You didn't watch Begonia either?
I watched it,
but I'm just like,
I only watch them
because they get nominated
and I'm just like,
I can't believe this.
I don't like weird
just to be weird.
I think there's a line.
I don't actually think
it's that weird
and that's part of the problem.
If you just look,
oh, interesting.
Oh, yeah. He's trying to be weird, but it's actually not interesting.
the movie's trying to make.
I'm less interested in that.
I think it's better
if you just look at it as
is this woman an alien movie?
I think in that respect,
it's really good.
Nick.
That's all he gave us.
He has a category idea.
Every watchable podcast
Fantasy is on.
He gives a criterion level fact
that's either 100% true
or is completely made up
and then we have to guess.
Oh, Two Truths and a Lie
with Sean Fantasy?
That's good.
Yeah, it's pretty good.
It's good.
I would believe it every time.
Not a truth.
And there's some sort of
reward punishment
if we guess correctly
more than wrong.
Fantasy has to
do a Forrest Gump impression
uttering the line
I think I ruined
your roommate's bathrobe.
He would be like
fuck that, I'm not doing that.
Yeah.
Or maybe if we get Sean
if like Sean ever gets caught
ten times
he has to do a
repatsables with you
where you just talk
for an hour and a half
about Pats games.
Maybe we get to
five and if
if guess
yes versus
guess no
there's some sort of
either punishment
or reward.
Alright, this is from
KB in Colorado.
Is Ryan Gosling
hosting SNL
the Hollywood equivalent
of LeBron
entering the dunk contest?
Gosling,
A-list actor
top of his profession
goes on SNL
fully commits
willingness to risk
looking uncool
endears him to fans
not fans
elevates his branches
same.
I picked this just for Craig
because I know Craig loves Gosling.
And SNL.
I know the comparison
is an apples to apples.
I wish more NBA stars
would do this.
And then he said
is Gosling this generation's
best current host of SNL?
He's putting together
a strong resume.
Is he flirting with
Mount Rushmore
or is that still set in stone?
I do think he's the best right now.
I think he's at the top
of the mountain for SNL hosts.
I think he's the best
last ten years.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I think he definitely is.
It's his willing to commit.
It's not that he does SNL
because a lot of people do it.
It's that he's willing
to just look like an idiot
and do whatever they want.
It's just such a good move.
I can't think of somebody
who's better.
Was the Chalamet episode
one we received?
Chalamet's good.
I think he's in. Chalamet's good.
Emma Stone's really good.
Yeah.
It's kind of a litmus test
in some ways
to what kind of actor you are
because the ones that can
pop on SNL
and just ride with anything
is probably part of why
they're such a good actor.
It's just willing to not
take yourself too seriously.
The Gosling SNL
that he just did,
the whole opening monologue
was basically dedicated
to how hot Harry Styles was
and he didn't.
And the fact that he was
willing to do that
shows why he's so great.
It's a weird one
from Tim in Los Angeles.
It's a question
for Conspiracy Bill.
He said,
in 90s crime movies,
it's your wheelhouse.
Sure.
Cell phones are basically
James Harden in the playoffs.
The second someone uses one,
it's they're listening.
Dump it.
Get to a play phone.
The smart criminals
always go analog.
Here's the thing.
I don't think that was
just a storytelling crutch.
I think big phone
lobbied Hollywood hard
to make early cell phones
feel insecure and traceable.
Slow down cell phone
adoption.
Keep landlines
and pay phones alive
a few more years.
Product placement
in reverse.
All that cell phones
taught us was
you're getting caught.
That's not nothing.
I'm saying it happened.
Really interesting.
He thinks that like
AT and,
well, who would,
what would big feel like?
The telecom companies.
But don't those companies
also own the cell phones?
That's where the conspiracy
falls apart.
Yeah, because you have
to get a plan
and they were usually
with the companies
that,
except for like,
I guess there was a few
that didn't.
I like where his head's at though.
Where did,
what happened in crime movies
when it's like,
get to a pay phone
and you give the guy
the number.
That's kind of gone now
because we don't have pay phones.
So how do people communicate?
Down signal?
Do you feel like
pay phones are going to come back
or any version of
untraceable communication?
Yeah.
I mean, if Blu-rays
could come back,
anything's possible.
I just don't think people
really call that much.
Like, it's like you call
your loved ones
and you get phone calls
from like spam.
But like, do you,
do you just like
blind call Bill
to ask him a question?
We're just learning now that,
I mean, obviously,
emails come back.
I think texts,
10 years from now,
we're going to think of texts
the way that we're thinking
of emails now.
And it's like,
people have got to figure out
ways to talk
that's not traceable.
I call Craig sometimes
just to freak him out
and think something happened,
but I'm just calling
to be like, yo.
You called me when I was
in Indianapolis
and I was like, oh no.
You'll do,
you have a,
it's like the random Bill call
that you're like,
oh no.
And then it's like,
Bankero.
I don't love it.
When I was in Indianapolis.
I like to be a positive
force in people's lives.
I was at dinner,
Bill calls me,
I leave to go step outside,
I answer and he goes,
you're going to love
CR's Zane Lowe impression
on today's pod.
That literally happened.
That was true.
You stepped out,
you thought there was
an emergency.
Okay.
This is,
this is,
this plane has to take off
and fly in the air
for a couple seconds,
but it lands really well.
Okay.
It's from
Cullen L.
Cullen.
I don't think we've had
a Cullen before.
Cullen,
little rare name.
You've been talking about
rewatching Game of Thrones
in the sauna.
I do it every
two years or so.
I'm always caught,
caught off guard
in season five,
episode five,
when Jorah and Tyrion's
capturers
just casually mentioned
that they would sell
Tyrion to a cock merchant.
That got me thinking
about how one goes
about becoming
a cock merchant.
Did you graduate
in a bad economy?
Unemployment rate is high
and it's hard
to find a job.
Just hate chopping dicks.
Do it all for the paycheck.
Telling people it's temporary.
Cut to 25 years later.
You're senior director
of Dwarf Cocks
with thinning hair
and a beer belly
wondering where your life went.
That made me think
about what other movies
just casually introduce
a character with a
holy shit,
how is that a job job?
Like the dude
in Minority Report
who just sells
new eyeballs to Tom Cruise.
Good one.
Bet that guy's life
didn't turn out
the way he expected.
Anyway, I think you should
consider the cock merchant
how the hell
is that a job?
How is that a job?
That's a category
for the rewatchables.
That's our boy Stormor.
Yeah.
I'd really like the
how is this a job job
category.
I think that's really strong.
Cock merchant.
Cock merchant's really good.
We've never,
usually for rewatchables categories
we have movies,
knee award,
not television shows.
So we'd really have to
bend it on this one.
Yeah.
I'm trying,
I'm just trying to scan
through my head
and think of like
of like characters
and like good fellas
who had bad jobs
or something like that.
But it's,
it's got a lot of legs.
I mean,
it's tough to top
eyeball reseller
in the future.
How about,
I mean,
Millich in Eyes Wide Shut
doing a 24-hour costume shop
where he also pimps out
family members.
Actually,
now that we're talking about this,
the Joaquin Phoenix
in 8mm.
Oh, yeah.
Just working in the
adult film store
and seeing things
that you can't unsee
and knowing like the dark world.
Ruth from To Live and Die.
Maybe just go work
at like a Subway.
Yeah, working at a topless bar
and also acting as a snitch.
Yeah.
The guy in Ace Ventura.
Oh, yeah.
Ruth of the Rat.
The old man in Ace Ventura
whose only job is like
tracking whale locations
in that room
in the concert venue.
Yeah, this is good.
I bet people have more ideas too.
This is from Casey
in Washington, D.C.
The Bill Simmons
watching TV on blast
through sauna glass award
for the most ridiculous
behavior in the movie.
Think Al Pacino
Give Me All You Got
or Tom Cruise being drunk
or Nicolas Cage
singing Halloween face-off.
But here's his big question.
If you could do a rewatch
of what was with Tom Cruise,
which movie would you want
to do with him
if it was his movie?
Ooh.
I have a choice,
but I'm interested
in your takes.
Depends on how. Craig would do
Tropic Thunder
just so we could do
Tropic Thunder.
Oh, my God. 100%.
I know what you would say.
I would do Eyes Wide Shut.
I just want to know
everything about it.
I would want to. I want to know everything
about what it was like.
It's a fucking great choice.
If he was going to be like,
it's all on the table,
let's go.
Like, me and Nicole,
me and Stanley,
did Stanley get killed
before the movie comes out?
Like, I'll talk about anything.
I would probably be that.
So maybe it's
two versions of Cruise.
It's everything's on the table,
we have no secrets, Cruise.
It's Eyes Wide Shut.
Yes.
If it's the Cruise,
the public figure Cruise
that we know,
it's got to be Cocktail.
Yeah.
It just has to be.
What do you think his recall
for the making of Cocktail
is at this point in his life?
Like, can you. I mean, he's an alien.
He's never drank.
He has all his brain cells.
I want to know
which Tom Cruise skill
he's held on to the most.
Oh, that's a great question.
That's in the Cocktail pod.
You would make him flip the bottle,
see if he could do it.
Is he still good at pool
from Color of Money?
But he would probably be like,
I can actually fly a jet
and you guys want me
to make a dark and stormy?
Like, that's. Like, who gives a shit?
You know?
I mean, if you could do
one activity with Cocktail,
Tom Cruise, what is it?
Play pool.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Or I'd want to bartend.
You'd want to bartend with him.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Hey, there's an opening
at TGA Fridays today, TC.
I'd like to. I'd like to give him sets
in volleyball
and just see what happens.
I want to dance with him
to Lil' John.
I'd also want to incorporate
Joe House in it somehow
because House has the rare ability
to just be able to immediately
befriend and hang out
with everybody.
And give him
to give somebody a nickname.
So, it's like,
almost immediately be like,
TC, what's up, motherfucker?
And just like,
Tom Cruise would love it.
All right.
Shots fired in this email
from Tyler.
He signed this,
Tyler on an ice road crew.
Okay.
Not sure what that means.
It means he's probably
driving on ice roads.
I didn't know if it was
a Stealth Rewatchables reference
from something we did
on an ice road.
Who knows?
Would this movie be worse
with dot, dot, dot?
Like how we do with
Hanks and Cruise,
the reverse.
Easily only one choice
for each scene.
sex, and blatantly obvious. It would be
Jared Leto and Dakota Johnson.
I was yelling in my tractor for Craig
to be a man and name them, but obviously someone
has gotten to him too. When did we talk about this?
I have no idea.
Would this movie be worse with Jared Leto or Dakota
Johnson? I think that's pretty funny.
Where are you at with Dakota?
I personally really like her.
She's been in. Her batting
average is. She's
under the Mendoza line. Yeah.
I personally like her.
It's pretty rare to have
this amount of turkeys, I guess.
But I do find myself
fascinated by her. I agree. I like her as a
personality, I think, more than I do the movies she's in.
She's a better talk show guest than she is
a movie star. I loved when she flipped it on Ellen.
I felt like that started the Ellen DeGeneres turn.
When she was like,
I did invite you, you didn't respond, or
whatever that whole thing was.
Jared Leto, I just don't like.
Yeah.
Yeah, I root against him.
First of all, any actor who
then also
tries to shove his band down your throat,
I just, my guard's up. Sure.
Right away with those guys.
Who are the best actors that are in a popular band?
Keanu. Oh, in a popular
band? I mean, Dogstar is like. Billy Bob is a big, like,
my band. Like, my band is
real busy this year, so Landman may have to wait
a while, like. James Dolan is
the best. Also, here's my band.
J.D. is straight shot. He has, like, these, like, some of the best
jazz musicians in the country he overpays
to be his backup band.

Alright, this is from Josh
from Vegas via Albany.
And he said in parentheses, yes, that's a real thing.
Building a rewatchable as extended
movie universe, Hall of Fame pyramid.
Like I did with the book of basketball.
Who are the
level one guys? Who's on top? Who are the role
players? I feel like this could at least be a good
mailbag bit. You're correct.
So I was thinking about this. I put some time
into this one. I sent this one to you guys.
If we did like, you do it
every year, right? Like how the NBA, they have
like this year's inductees. So we did the first
ballot.
The Pantheon would have to be the five people
that have been in the most rewatchable movies. I think
that'd be a fair way to do it, which is Cruz 17,
Pacino 14, De Niro
13, Denzel 12, Stallone
12. Yes. So those would be
our first inductee for
the Pantheon. I think you'd have the following
four directors, Spielberg 9,
Tony Scott 9, Michael Mann
8, Scorsese 8.
For you put those four in.
Special achievement.
Steven Seagal
brought us a lot of joy. Sure.
Rene Russo
just killing the 90s
showing up over and over again. She's been in seven
rewatchables movies. Oh my God.
Philip Seymour Hoffman.
Got his own category.
Bernthal.
How's the peeping?
How's the peeping?
You know what?
P.S.H. scene I just keep
watching over and over again. Mission
Impossible 3. You think I won't
do it?
So special achievement.
Would you put Bernthal in there for what he meant
to the rewatchables? I feel like he gets in.
I think
Julie Roberts gets in. She's
second most female rewatchables
plus
Pretty Woman was one of the funniest pods
we had and I don't know.
She's just popped in different decades. In special
achievement or just in?
I was thinking special achievement, but
you could also just save her for Hall of Fame.
Is there
anybody else you would do for special achievement?
I mean, if you just want to use
people who have been, I think
like Philip Baker Hall, for instance,
deserves recognition as a role player
for his role.
So I have him in the next category for the
that guy category. Yeah.
But he's also in the imitations for a while.
Oh, true.
Yeah. Who else did we do
for imitations? We had Wayne, Robert
Loggia, Andy Garcia,
Philip Baker Hall,
Pete Possilway.
Honestly, Loggia's
got to be. Loggia's in. Yeah.
Because he also is in big. All right. Seagal, Russo, Hoffman,
Loggia. Would you
have a fifth? Oh.
Karen
from Goodfellas. Lorraine
Bracco. Yes. Yeah. Bracco's in. Okay.
That's five.
The That Guy Award.
These are all graduated That Guys, but
Joey Pants, John
Carroll Lynch, who was in three and four at one
point. What a run for him.
I think Catherine O'Hara has to be in there
because she's been in a bunch of different ones. We've done
different characters. And
Remar. Yeah. We've talked about
Remar. And then would you put Baker Hall
as the fifth? Yeah.
He's probably actually also been
secretly in like ten rewatchables.
We just haven't really counted it up. I know. We need to
find our Robert Ori, who's actually been in the most
rewatchables movies. Is it Cruise with 17
or is there somebody who's actually been in more?
I looked this up. Nobody's been in over ten.
Do you know how many Hoffman movies we've
done? How many PSA movies? Yeah. It's seven or
eight. Wow. Yeah. Yeah. And there's some left.
Oh, yeah. I mean, there's some that I would just put
in just for him. So then I
have. Like Charlie Wilson's
War or something. Throw Your Life Away,
Roller Girl, Catherine
Shamel, Edie Falco and Copland,
and Robin Givens and Boomerang. Oh, and there's. I can think of a bunch of other ones. Yeah. But I think this is the first
class. De Mornay from Risky Business.
Ooh. Yeah.
Might have to add it. We have room for one more.
Room for one more.
I mean, he literally did throw his life
away. All right. We'll add De Mornay.
Risky Business.
Unless you want to do Species.
I don't care
if I die at the end of this sexual encounter.
I mean, certainly.
She should probably be in there.
I mean, let's be honest. A bunch of guys
did throw their lives away for her. Yeah.
Who do you like from Fletch?
Oh, Dana. Dana
Wheeler Nicholson. Yeah.
That could be another category of most polarizing
arguments we've had on the podcast.
Sean just being. just laughing
us down for an hour and a half.
Yeah. Like, forget that.
I mean, I would throw Courtney Cox or Mace Ventura in there, but. Ooh.
Can add that as well. Just a. We're just naming hot women in movies now.
And then last one.
This is the big one. The Dion
Waiters first class.
So I did some work on this.
Ted Levine's Silence of the Lambs. Yeah.
She. She's a great big fat person.
Catherine Han
and Step Brothers. Uh-huh.
We did like 15 minutes on how good she was
in that movie. We did that a while ago.
She's so fucking funny in that movie. We should restep.
That was like 2017. I wasn't doing the show then.
Are you sure? Yeah, I wasn't there.
I don't think. Who did you do it with? Did we do it?
I don't remember. I don't remember anything anymore.
It might have been
Miyu and Sean. Maybe.
Let me check. Let me see when that was.
She's amazing in that movie. So good.
Did we do like. I feel like we talked about
the Catalina Wine Cooler for like 25
minutes. It was
you two and Sean, July
2018, which is the week I got hired.
Wow. So we could probably do that as a
live show.
Cyrus and the Warriors.
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
Christopher Walken with the combo
Pulp and True Romance.
I think he won for both, right? Yeah.
Yes. And then Clemenza
and the Godfather, who we talked about
for a while. We did. Just. Five scenes just absolutely annihilating
all of them. Does Christoph Waltz count
from Inglourious Bastards?
He's in too much. He's in it too much.
Because the other one is. Initially, I thought
Melissa McCarthy in Bridesmaids.
One of the funniest performances of all time.
But she's in it too much. She's like a star in the movie.
It's an ensemble, yeah. That's why. Katherine Hahn's in like
four scenes. Just like absolutely destroying
everything. Yeah. In all of them.
But I think it's those four. There's probably some other
ones. Oh, and
McBride in This is the End. Oh, yeah.
Oh, my God. Is he in it too much? He's in it
for the first half of the movie, right?
He's in it too much. Oh, no. It's
more like the second, third, where he shows up
after. The whole night happens and then he wakes up.
But he's probably there for a good 30 minutes. Yeah.
I don't know. It's a tough one. Michael Cera in
This is the End would be mine. Oh, yeah.
Would there. Oh, that's a good. I think he won, actually.
He had to have. Slapping Rihanna's ass.
Because we probably decided McBride was
in it too much. Blowing coke in people's
face. Is there any other category you would put
in for the Hall of Fame?
I think we should just make. We should actually really put more time into this
and then, like, announce it on some
special pod and have, like, plaques
and stuff. Yeah. That would be good. But is there another
category that should be in there?
I think those are the basics. No, those are the big ones.
I mean, I think Apex Mountain's so open for
debate about what it is, kind of.
Like, it's hard to put it in. We didn't have Bargain. Yeah, it would be too confusing.
Because I was thinking, could Villain be in there?
But. Oh, Hans Gruber
Villain?
You could do Apex Mountain by year.
Who has 1984? Who has
1985, who has 1986.
I was thinking because we have Nice Guys coming.
And Gosling was in that and La La Land same year.
My case for that, they should name for the Oscars an MVP of the year.
Either somebody that just completely the performance was so unbelievable
they owned the year or somebody that had multiple movies.
I would love to go back through.
I mean, there's a couple Spielberg years where he does Jurassic and Schindler's and stuff.
That's the thing.
The MVP can be director, actor, actress.
Cinematographer even.
I mean, we talked about Carrie in 94 doing Dumb and Dumber, The Mask, and Ace Ventura.
It's like unanimous vote.
And if you go back earlier to like the 70s and 80s,
there are times when people put up like three, four movies that are pretty good.
You know, like Redford, Hoffman, De Niro years.
Didn't Soderbergh get nominated for Best Director for two different movies in the same year?
Yeah, Traffic and Aaron Brockovich, right?
I mean, that's. No, wait. Yeah, that was it, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Tom Kane, Tucson.
He wants us to flirt with him.
It's been an unwatchables month.
And he mentioned, we have to do Gigli, the Ben Affleck anti-classic.
Is that a rock bottom?
The opposite of Apex Mountain? Gigli?
That's his Nadir Mountain.
He mentions how Affleck's critical to the pod, which is true.
We love Affleck.
The Hangover's Justin Bartholomew submits a nuclear holocaust of a Rain Man impression.
Oh, that's great.
That his career somehow survived.
Two big name cameos in the film, including Al Pacino.
And then he suggests. Unwatchables month.
Gigli, Rocky V, Battlefield Earth, Freddy Got Fingered, and Catwoman.
We get a lot of requests for Catwoman because it's really, truly one of the worst movies ever made.
Is that the Halle Berry one?
Yeah.
There's also a crazy basketball scene in that movie that's like. I can't even describe it.
I've never seen it.
I'm sure Dan has some thoughts on Catwoman.
We've kind of lost the art of making real stinkers because now they're more like superhero movies
or sci-fi movies that you're watching.
But usually superhero movies where I'm like,
I can't believe they put this out.
Well, it's funny because right now there kind of is one of those in The Bride.
Yeah, but there are a bunch of people who think The Bride's awesome.
Yeah.
Or The Bride is like a brave step, you know?
Yeah, I like the Bride zaggers.
Yeah?
Yeah.
They're like, you guys didn't understand The Bride.
Like we had cats, I guess.
Oh, yeah.
The Taylor Swift cats.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Drew S. writes,
What do you think about adding a flex category for the Ted Levine Buffalo Bill Award
for performance so good and distinct it damaged the actor's career?
Retroactive winners include Billy Zabka and Karate Kid,
Patrick Bergen in Sleeping with the Enemy,
and even though Chris Maloney and J.K. Simmons had strong careers,
you can never unwatch their characters in Oz.
Wayne Grow to me is the ultimate example of this.
Yeah, I don't even know.
I couldn't even see Wayne Grow again after a repeat.
I mean, I think he's even now leaning it.
Like he did the Mulaney show where he just came out as Wayne Grow.
I mean, it's like you just kind of have to-
This is a good flex category for if there's a movie where it's so clearly-
It's basically like are you going to be signing autographs at conventions
for the next 30 years?
For the next 30 years as this character.
It's a typecast award, I guess, right?
Kind of.
Because we see it in TV all the time.
It's like Jason Alexander was George Clinton.
This is more disturbing, right?
Yeah, it's like the performance was so distinct
that you can't unsee the performance from the character.
But it's like Patrick Bergen is a good example.
That's a perfect one.
He was a good actor, but Sleeping with the Enemy,
you're just seeing him going,
Laura!
And he's just so crazy and evil.
You're like, he actually has to be crazy and evil.
There's no way he's acting.
Yeah.
That's a really tough line to cross.
Wayne Gross, same thing.
Frank Nitti in The Untouchables.
I can't remember that actor's name, but it's like-
The bad guy?
Yeah, the guy in the white suit.
I would just be like, I'm going to the other side of the street.
For Jeff, it's Goldblum in Death Wish.
He watches the big show.
Man, this is a great category.
There's so many that I want to go back and look at.
Like the role that haunts you.
The role that haunts the actor.
Yeah.
This is a nerdy one from Ron in Florida.
He's a tax lawyer.
He said in 82, Congress passed the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act,
which made bearer bonds very expensive for companies to issue
and are very rare to see after the mid-80s.
That's why you don't see bearer bonds anymore.
And he can look past it for some post-82 movies like Beverly Hills Cop,
maybe even Die Hard.
But when we get to Heat and Panic Room, no fucking way, basically, he's saying.
They're just out of circulation.
He's like, Roger Van Zandt is not carrying around 1.6 million in bonds.
We'll pass their maturity date.
Come on.
Okay.
We'll tell Michael Mann.
Matt Hennessey suggests the Dave Toschke Animal Crackers Award
for most niche taste or interest exhibited by a main character in a movie.
Jesus.
This is good.
Floyd Gondali's penchant for backdoor lollipops, he mentions.
Did you just do it again?
Gondali?
Floyd Gondali.
Gondoli.
Gondoli.
Yeah.
Challenge flag.
Torey Flagg.
Torey Flagg.
Don't take.
Reynolds.
Woodcocks.
Fondness for Poison Mushrooms and Phantom Thread.
Sure.
Steve Carell's character in Little Miss Sunshine being the preeminent pro scholar in America.
And then, uh, Neil McCauley in Metals.
It's pretty good.
Or like, Malkovich and Rounders liking Oreos.
Yeah.
This is pretty good.
I think this goes into Fleck.
Jennifer Lopez, Dolphins fan in Out of Sight.
And it's not niche.
I mean, she's from Miami, but it's still like, is like, absolutely mind-blowing.
It's just specific.
She just walks out wearing a Merino jersey.
Yeah.
What's, what's fantasy's version of this?
It's like, uh, what's his name in To Live and Die in L.A.?
Wearing the Steelers' Max.
Yeah, the Mike Webster.
Mike Webster jersey.
What's fantasy's most niche taste?
Like, as a human being?
Yeah.
I think it's almost the reverse of his no white condiments thing.
Is that a thing?
Oh, yeah.
Like, no ranch, no mayo?
Nope.
Although, he does cheat with aioli sometimes, but he doesn't like any white condiments.
Is it because, like, why?
Is it, he just happens to like it?
He just happens to not like condiments that are white?
I honestly don't even know.
It's such a good answer, and it's, it's, it's great.
It's so fantasy.
Like, really hates mayonnaise.
Oh, no.
No milk.
No white condiments.
Oh, no milk?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Wow.
Yeah.
Does like half and half.
Mayo's great.
You need mayo in a sandwich.
Uh, Rob Kasher actually convinced me to change a category.
Oh.
And he said he's a huge fan of the show.
He's been on the ride since the Page Two days.
But he said it's a terrible job by me with the Elizabeth Shue Award.
She's highly educated.
She went to Wellesley and Harvard, and she radiates intelligence in most of her work.
I can't disagree.
Her being cast as an astrophysicist is perfectly credible in The Saint, at least by Hollywood
standards.
It does not feel like she was cast because she was simply hot.
Obviously, the award needs to be the Denise Richards as Nuclear Physicist Christmas Jones
Award.
Sure.
So I changed that.
I think he's right.
Denise Richards playing a nuclear physicist is a hundred times more absurd than Elizabeth
Shue.
I like it.
The Christmas Jones Award.
Yeah.
I really like this question from Jack in Austin.
In the social network, there's a short scene where Eduardo comes to visit Zuck in his dorm
room and mentions he made it to the next round of the final club recruitment.
Eisenberg gets up, stands in the doorway and robotically says, that's good.
You should be proud of that right there.
Don't worry if you don't make it any further.
It's an all-time line reading that could base smarmyness, jealousy, and resentment without
showing much emotion.
I propose the, that's good.
Don't worry if you don't make it any further award for best line reading.
Passworders include, she's got a great ass.
Everybody in the German army has heard of Hugo Stigwitz and my offer is this, nothing.
We have to add this.
Okay.
I don't know if Sean's going to listen to this, but next time we have Sean on and he
says something, you should go, that's good.
You should be proud of that.
Don't get mad if I don't throw to you for a while.
I think best line reading is a great one.
Yeah.
I'm kind of surprised we've had this pod for nine years and didn't think with that, that
should be a category.
Yeah.
Cause it's a little twist on best quote or belatedly best quote, best line reading.
Leslie Nielsen, an airplane.
Good luck.
We're all counting.
Right.
But I think what his point is also that the, what Jesse Eisenberg says winds up being like
a very like prophetic thing about his relationship with Eduardo.
The words seem to be really.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So it's like, it's hard.
It's like, that's a tasty beverage is, or that's a tasty burger is like, it's an incredible
line reading.
I don't know if it has like everything to do with fiction.
It needs to have weight.
Yeah.
Pat from Scranton had one that, uh, another good category suggestion about if we did a
recast away the Wilson, I'm sorry, award for did this movie crossover in a pop culture
and become a universal Joker reference?
Um, like the exorcist heads.
Oh yeah.
He mentions groundhog.
The movie Houston.
We have a problem.
Funny.
How am I funny?
Clown.
Just when I thought I was out, they pulled me back in Houston.
We have a problem.
It's from a movie.
Yeah.
Isn't that in Paul 13?
Yeah.
It's Paul 13, but that's where it started.
Yeah.
I mean, I think that they actually said it, you know, like on the TV.
That movie is what pushed that into the lexicon.
I thought that was already.
If a movie had a moment that actually became cultural, I think that needs to be recognized.
It's tough because we can put it in what stage is the best.
The last like 10 years, I feel like they become more.
Like visual memes and like that rather than the lines.
Because now it's like a screenshot of Killian Murphy from Oppenheimer after like the, what
have I done?
And it's just a shot of him looking down.
Or the Duff quarterback.
Right.
Yeah.
Hmm.
Um, what's the last movie you can think of that really broke into like popular cultural
lexicon?
I think it takes 10 years.
I think it's a slow burn.
Yeah.
Because it's like Bane now is like, there's all these Bane jokes like that you'll hear
on like sports pods and stuff.
And it's like, that was not happening.
like when it first came out.
That's a good one, though.
Yeah.
Like the town, which is 15 years old.
Whose car are we going to take?
The Departed.
I think it takes like 10 to 15 years.
It's got to really, really work at it.
Jordan R.
I'm still laughing, but you see.
That's a good take, Sean.
Don't get mad if I don't call on you for a while.
Another 48 hours.
And we mentioned the Warriors.
And Jordan R. mentions how bad Rembrandt.
Was this guy really good at his job category?
Tagging the gravestone.
Very simple.
He had a lot of stuff about like.
Rembrandt, this was like your one job in the gang.
And you just did like very mediocre graffiti.
And wants Rembrandt to be added to Vincent Chase.
I don't think we need to do that.
I'm going to watch the Warriors again, though.
And really look at the graffiti.
This kind of gets into like.
Was Creasy the best getaway driver?
Or the only available getaway driver?
Like there's some guys that you're like.
They've really built up this dude's role for the entire thing.
And then it just doesn't work out.
I'm going to skip ahead to the last couple here.
Oh.
Dave H. wants an AI platform.
Where Craig could be like.
I want to watch Zodiac at 97 minutes.
And AI just cuts it.
It's the Craig Krollback AI.
Time management machine.
Well, this is the thing.
Is that like we need to bring back.
This movie was edited by Claude.
The rest real cable.
Yeah.
Where Craig is cutting like epic films to make it.
Just chopping them.
So we can watch Nick's Hornets at 5 p.m.
Ben and I watched Almost Famous twice in the last week.
But we watched the bootleg cut the second time.
Which has like 35 minutes of additional scenes.
And I was telling him this one's not in the movie.
And then we were deciding after the scene.
Whether they should have kept it in the actual cut or not.
Yeah.
Had a great time.
That's awesome.
Yeah.
There was a couple good scenes where we were like.
So Almost Famous.
I would say there's probably three scenes.
That they could have added.
So in that case.
Maybe like eight minutes longer.
Okay.
And I don't think I would cut anything.
Robert V.
Wants us to add the Coghlan's Law Award.
For best random rule or law in the movie from Cocktail.
He points out.
We had so much fun with the laws.
Yeah.
In that movie.
That was a really fun pod.
And should we just squeeze him in.
Should that be life lesson.
I'm willing to test drive this one.
Sure.
Yeah.
Maybe it could be life lesson or Coghlan's Law.
I'd have to re-read the Coghlan's Law.
We have life lesson at the end of the.
Yeah.
So maybe Coghlan's Law is in there.
Coghlan's Law is in the movie.
That works.
I'm okay with that.
Oliver from Melbourne, Australia.
Wants the Al Pacino yellow handkerchief award.
For the most what the fuck moment in the movie.
I'll put that in flex.
Yeah.
And then.
Kind of a dark email from Eddie from Philly.
Uh oh.
He was listening to Zodiac.
And he said there's this huge New Yorker article last year.
Which explored a theory.
Why serial killers basically vanished after the 80s.
We talked about this.
Why.
Isn't it just like DNA and surveillance.
He said.
Baby boomers and Gen X being exposed to leaded gasoline.
Was the sliding doors moment.
To power a large portion of Netflix's business.
Is the theory.
What does that mean?
The smell of gas.
Made people like want to kill people.
That's his theory.
That was this.
This article.
That's fascinating.
Did lead poisoning create a generation of serial killers in the 70s?
Do you think Netflix needs serial killers to come back?
Netflix is now doctoring the gas.
I know.
To make it more leaded again.
Josh Aubrey.
We're coming to the end here.
Just one of the guys.
He said the Joyce Hauser was almost Dr. Melfi bombshell.
And the just one of the guys.
Oh yeah.
Should be used in the future for half-assed internet research.
As like the hammer.
Oh yeah.
He said this to me was the equivalent of finding out.
Judd Nelson was almost Walter White.
You know what?
Is that true?
Why don't we do this?
Instead of what?
Because half-assed internet research.
We generally cannibalize like at the beginning of the pod.
Anyway, like people can't help but be like,
did you know this happened?
And this happened, but you got to save one hammer.
You got to save one for the like the most fascinating piece of half-assed internet research.
Yeah.
Maybe it'll build.
I think that's a better way to do it.
Michael Hughes in London wants us to have the Polly from Rocky word for the character.
Who would?
Who would host the most terrifying podcast or YouTube channel?
That made me think of other podcasts, YouTube channels like Big Nick and Den of Thieves.
Yeah.
Could we, uh, could we do that?
Big Nick and Den of Thieves would just be like talking LA high school football.
Sure.
He's like another great season from Polly.
Wayne Grow would have an interesting YouTube channel.
Yeah, Wayne Grow would be awful.
Andrew points out that the Mark Colton Hayates Enrico Palazzo award for best performance with one line should actually be the Estelle Ryan.
I'll have what she's having.
Yeah.
Nice shout out to Rob Reiner.
Yeah.
And that's probably a more famous line.
Definitely.
So I'll have what she's having.
That's a good one.
Yeah.
Um, Duncan Woodward in Washington.
He said, as someone who goes on Zillow constantly to appreciate real estate, I will never be able to afford.
I often find myself appreciating beautiful homes and movies.
We do this with the Amanda Dobbins category.
Um, I've researched properties from movies.
Find out how much they last sold for.
Some examples.
I researched the Graham family home in hereditary Jason Bourne's Paris apartment.
We got ambush and the house and let the weapon owned by the South Africans.
Um, I would like to propose the Fausto Alicorn mansion award for piece of real estate.
You'd want to own the most.
And then you guys could guess the price and do that.
Fausto's mansion.
I don't know if we want to put Fausto in the categories.
Uh, um, uh, Ben from Connecticut wanted us to do the Stuart Scott award for line from.
The movie most likely to be used during a nineties SportsCenter highlight.
Oh yeah.
Like Wolf of Wall Street.
I'm not fucking leaving.
Yeah.
Stu Scott's just doing that.
Um, all right.
Dave P wants to know cruiser Hanks.
If you could pick one Tom Cruise movie to sub Hanks in for the cruise part and vice versa, what are the two movies?
And he wants to see cruise and castaway cruising.
Castaway would be pretty amazing.
Yeah.
The physicality cruise would really lean into and do a good job.
Him trying to light the fire.
It's harder to go the other way.
Um, I could see Hanks going into a cruise part.
What about Hanks and eyes wide shut?
I could see that would be weird.
That'd be a tough one.
I could see Hanks doing, cause there was like a, I could see young, you're sort of a young bad boy era for Hanks when he's doing like punchline.
I could see him doing bachelor party.
Hanks.
Yeah.
Like rain, man.
That's what I was going to say.
Rain man being, uh, Hanks is Charlie Babbitt.
Yeah, that's pretty good.
Yeah.
So Hanks is Charlie Babbitt and then cruising Castaway.
Is there another Hanks movie that would be funny for cruise saving private Ryan would be hilarious.
I think the cruise cruise and big would be funny.
The worst version of it would be cruises, Forrest Gump because of the running, especially cruising Forrest Gump or big, Oh, cruising Forrest Gump.
He's probably furious.
We might need to embrace AI just so they can make a version of Forrest Gump with Tom Cruise coming on the Craig Horlbeck network, Claude, an 80 minute version of Zodiac and an AI cruising Castaway.
Wow.
Why can't Craig be the new Claude?
It's called Craig.
It's just his AI thing.
Um, you got AI in my name, you know, but it would be good if you could also just be like, if sometimes you're like, ah, that's a good question.
I don't know.
I'm busy.
I'm watching Zodiac.
I'm trying to trim an hour out of Zodiac.
It's really hard.
Jack F loves the rewatchables mailbags.
So he's gotta be excited.
He's in this one.
The little Kittner boy getting eaten by a shark award for the scene that gets glossed over until the.
Viewer realizes, holy shit.
A little boy was eaten by a shark and he has Dr.
Loomis, uh, mistaking Ben Tramer for Michael Myers, um, and a bunch of others.
We just talked about something like this on the, to live and die in LA one where it's like, uh, a guy explodes in the same building that, that Ronald Reagan is giving a speech at.
And then the next scene is like, they don't even reference it.
Yeah.
I'm going to put that in the, there was an assassination attempt on the president.
Then they're like, yeah, let's get some beers.
But we always have to end mailbags either here or on my podcast with the, the goofiest question possible.
This comes from Chris say, good morning.
I did not know there would be a rewatchables built mailbag where you'd consider new awards.
If there's still a chance, I would like to propose one, the Peter North award for the performance of an actor.
That was their most effort filled one in their career, a performance that they shot their most load in.
If you will.
Thank you for listening and have a great new year.
So it's not best role.
It's most effort trying the hardest.
It's like they shot their biggest.
I got to say it's pretty good.
The Peter North award.
It's good.
I'm trying to think of like the, the way you challenge it.
It's like Casey Affleck in Manchester by the sea.
Yeah.
Daniel Day Lewis in my left foot.
But I would say he's, he's Peter North in every movie.
He's beating all the time.
Peter North and Lincoln.
Yeah.
He's Peter North and Lincoln.
I feel like Ben Affleck and chasing Amy was a Peter North movie for him.
He really, really went for it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's really for the movies where the guy really, really goes for it.
Or the actress.
It's like going method almost.
Michael Douglas in basic instinct kind of.
Yeah.
Well, no, but it's like.
I guess he's kind of, no.
Like cruise and cocktails.
Another one.
It's almost like they're throwing everything they have into a part.
That's not even that great.
I like that.
Yes.
It's like, ah, they had to go full Peter North there.
Like Pacino son of a woman.
Right.
Or it's really Pacino and two for the money.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But I don't know.
There's something there
with the Peter North.
Yeah, it's the try hard award.
Yeah, you're pushing too hard.
Apparently, he has an autobiography
coming out.
Peter North?
Peter North, yeah.
Will you be reading it?
I Googled to see if he was still alive
and he is.
Yeah.
What else did you Google?
We had a friend of mine
in the 90s
kind of looked like Peter North
and it was a running joke
for the entire 90s.
Our friend Mike.
What piece of real estate?
Does Craig know who Peter North is?
I don't.
I was just kind of hoping
nobody would ask.
Yeah.
Famous 80s, 90s porn actor.
Yeah.
Known for his prodigious
finishing shots.
He left it all on the field.
Yeah.
Oh.
Yeah.
What does that mean?
He was getting acrobatic with it?
It's just one of those things
where it was going.
A lot of volume.
Volume shooter.
Oh, it was volume.
Yeah, volume shooter.
Distance?
It's just everything.
What's with the follow-ups?
Can't you just. So it's sperm?
Are we talking sperm?
Now we have to word
Peter North
for the rewatchables.
Yep.
This is our podcast.
I think my Peter North award
was the 21st century
50 most rewatchable movies pod.
Yeah.
That was my Peter North.
For Bill?
Yeah.
Yeah.
That was you shooting
across the room.
What was for Van?
What was Van's rewatchables?
Um. I think when Van said
that he wanted. He would have slept with
the woman from Species.
Oh, yeah.
And that he could convince her
that it's a good idea.
And that his. That he's pure.
He's like,
hey, they hate my people too.
Like, yeah.
Together we will. Together we can take over.
That was a great one.
All right.
We're done with the rewatchables.
We'll be right back.
Thanks to everybody
who sent questions in.
They were really good.
We'll try to do this
every three or four months.
CR month.
Just a banger.
Nice Guys coming next.
Yeah.
Monday.
And then LA Confidential
to wrap it up.
No, Nice Guys will have
already happened
by the time people hear this.
No, because. Oh, Nice Guys won't have happened.
Live and Die in LA
will have been out, yeah.
Mailbag.
Then Nice Guys.
Nice Guys.
LA Confidential.
LA Confidential.
Our first four-person rewatchables
in six months.
And then what are you going to do?
Are you going to take some time off?
It's up to Chief here.
You know, he gets to decide.
People were like,
CR, finally some good movies
because CR was in charge.
I was like,
what have you been talking about?
What have you been talking about
doing these movies for?
Don't give CR too much fucking credit.
What's the least CR movie
we could do right after CR month?
I can take Multitudes.
What would you pick?
You'd probably do like. You can come and go with rom-coms.
Toy Story?
Yeah, anything animated,
you might as well put me on the bench.
Cars 3?
That's when I go away for three months.
We just do all animated
and like Harry Potter movies.
I'm just gone.
Do you like any animated film?
And then the feed does better
than without me.
Fuck you guys.
Spotify is like,
maybe we can replace Bill.
Maybe we don't need him anymore.
With Craig AI.
Do you like any animated movie?
Yeah, I do.
It's partially a bit,
but I don't actually
actively seek them out.
I've honestly never
really fully understood it.
I went through a phase
that all people do.
You'll go through it soon
when you take your kids
when they're like. It's really fun to take the kids
to the first one
when they're like three.
And then it's like three to nine.
You just start going to them.
So you're not a big
Toy Story guy or anything.
Incredibles,
Finding Nemo,
none of that stuff.
I'm not.
I like the one sad Toy Story
I thought was good.
Oh, three.
Three's good.
When they're all about to die
in the fire.
Yeah, three's a good one.
That one's sad.
I also thought Lion King
was really good.
Which one?
Not the. The 94 one.
Yeah, the 94 one.
Oh, yeah, it's amazing.
Yeah, that was good.
The music in all those movies
are really good.
Yeah, good date.
Like, good date movie.
Lion King was a good date movie.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Zootopia 2 was good.
I believe Zootopia 2
was really good.
It was really good.
Like, great.
I didn't like when
to be, like, way deeper.
Like, basically,
they started catering
toward the parents
and to put stuff in there.
So all the jokes and stuff
were, like, layered references.
Yeah, to put stuff in there
to keep the parents. You don't like that.
I just think they should be
for kids.
But what do I know?
Maybe they've always been that way.
Zootopia 2 has a lot of movie. There's Godfather references
in Zootopia 2.
It's funny.
The ones that I grew up with,
like, weird shit happened.
Like what?
Like the Ralph Bakshi movies
and stuff?
No, like Bambi.
Oh, I mean,
all those early Disney movies,
there's a huge tragedy
to start the film.
In Nemo, the mom gets eaten
by a barracuda
to start the movie.
And up, the wife dies.
There's always something like that.
Well, the one that we get,
and it's a Mallory favorite,
I think it's Hugo.
It's the one that foresees
the future with AI
and all this shit
going on in it.
Isn't that Scorsese?
No.
I mean, he made a movie
called Hugo.
I don't. Is that what you're talking about
or no?
It's one of those movies
and it's big on AI.
Mallory's always wanted to do it.
I thought it was Hugo.
Not Wally?
No, Wally.
Oh, Wally, sure.
Why did I think Hugo?
Wally is like. It's like the Apple Vision Pro
is in Wally.
Wally is the one.
We're all just like fat robots
stuck to our chairs
watching screens
and ordering smoothies.
Yeah, I think Wally is like
an age the best and the worst.
Yeah.
Now that people might be
about AI girlfriends.
Yeah, Mal just picked Wally
on a draft we were on
and she was getting emotional
about it.
I let Mal and Joanna down
because they asked me
to be on the space draft
and I said,
I don't really like space.
I don't really like space movies
and Mallory was upset.
You don't like space movies?
They kind of freak me out.
Yeah.
I don't really like outer space.
What's the best space movie
for you?
I've seen all of them
at least once.
I like when it's Martian.
I like when people can come home.
But I don't like. Like Gravity.
I don't like thinking about
what's up there.
Gravity is tough.
Gravity is really good.
I like Gravity.
I think Alien and Interstellar
and 2001 and. It kind of breaks my brain
when I think about it too much.
I'd much rather worry about
like Shea Gildress Alexander's
foul baiting.
I've been worrying
what's going on in Saturn.
I'm focusing on what's on Earth.
Yeah.
I've been worrying about
what's here.
All right.
Thanks, CR.
Thanks, man.
Thanks, Craig.
Thanks to Gahal and Eduardo
as well.
And we'll be back Monday
with Nice Guys on Monday.
All right.
Cool.
