Mini Crush #115: 420 Edition

smell good? Chuck? Did he smell good? I'm not gonna tell the story, but I passed by Snoop Dogg one time in very close proximity, and he and he referenced me and my friends as being, uh, all these white guys with sideburns. Well that sound that that that sounds on brand. It was just like back in the seventies, like when was this? No, no, this is this is in the probably late nineties when the big sideburns were in. Have you met him? No? No, I have not. I

have not. He just seems cool. I love him, man out. I was I remember very distinctly the first time I ever listened to The Chronic in Athens, Georgia with my friends Jason and Clay and Uh, when Snoop Dogg made his debut on that record, I had never heard of I never heard a voice like his before, and it was totally original and just fucking floored me completely. I was like, is this guy? Yeah, he had this super laid back kind of like just so cool, just the

coolest delivery, you know. Yeah, and it was just different at the time, like everything was kind of hard hitting, and he was the perfect CounterPunch to Dre. I need to listen to The Chronic again. I haven't pulled that out in a little while. Is that the one that encourages you to smoke weed every day? Well, it is for knol. I'm just saying, thanks for bringing that up. So that's a nice segue. Uh. What we were gonna do, and we talked about doing since this is releasing on April,

was doing a doing a weed episode. But then I started thinking about how dumb that is. Hey, Chuck, you ever podcasted on weed? On weed? Uh? So we are not doing a four twenty episode, but I thought I would at least throw a bone to the crowd and do a segment on weed movies. Fair enough? Oh yeah, yeah, I love it. So I asked the movie crushers, what is the best weed movie? And I said, I don't know if there are any, because I find them all kind of dumb in my honest opinion. Um, but let's

see what the people have to say. What do you say? What's the movies? Yeah, what's the Dave Chappelle one? That's that's the classic. That one's actually considered pretty funny and pretty half baked, half baked? It was? It was okay, I guess, but I was cute. I only saw it once, so it's not like it couldn't have been that good. What about the Chechen Schong movies? You don't know a little nostalgic warm place in your heart for those guys. I do, but they're really not that good. They're not

and they're really dumb. I hate to say it. They're kind of dumb and not that good. I couldn't say that now with hindsight, I think that's fair. Um. Oh, I don't know. You like that high maintenance show a lot that's a that's a weed thing sort of, but uh, yeah, you see it and you'll realize it's not a It's not a weed show at all, got it. It's a show about human beings. Know how many times do I have to tell you that Well so is half baked, Chuck So is half baked. Well let's see if h

let's see what if? Any of these will jog my memory of good weed movies. Austin Ardebski, one of our good friends, his Pineapple Express. When that came out, me and my buddies went to a midnight screening and people were literally passing joints around and smoking. I will never forget that experience. I actually kind of liked Pineapple Express. That one was fun because it had a heist element involved, you know, or there was like some time uh and

Danny McBride's always a treat. I always see anything he's in. I didn't want to see it again, but it was fun enough, you know. Check. I there are very few movies these days that I want to see again. As I've gotten older, my time is just so valuable. I don't feel like I ever need to see things more than once. Most of the time. I know you're you don't feel that way, but that's just across the board.

Thing for me kind of with movies nowadays. All right, fair enough, Becca lu goes the Pineapple Express too, if for no other reason, then I'm already in the dumpster is used in my house extensively. It's what she says. Uh, and Becca lose an old pal, of course. Is that referred referring to being really stoned or something? Or I already remember the line? I think, Uh, I think it was just a line in the movie. I don't think it had other meaning. I think they were literally in

the dumpster. Yeah, maybe it's literally a scenario where you're supposed to meet somebody in the dumpster and you're saying, I'm already in the dumpster. So uh. One of our oldest friends with a great name, Margarita Sarah Margo says, Harold and Kumar go to Whitecastle easily the one I've watched the most times. From what I remember, I really loved it. Yeah, that was fun movie. Let me see here, would you consider Dazed and Confused a weed? What constitutes

a weed movie? Like? Well, good point, because someone says days and Confused and here, uh, where was that a sault earlier? I don't consider that a weed movie at all? Do you. I guess the very nature of a weed movie is sort of diminutive anyway, because it's applying that it's sort of a one trick pony, and then it's it's it's leaning on a stale kind of you know, joke the whole movie. And so I could see where you're coming from the idea of a weed movie inherently

is like schlocky and kind of not great. Usually, Yeah, that's because weed culture is kind of dumb and shlocky and not great. But what you realize is is that like all kinds of people smoke weed, everyone and of every kind of like you know, social strata and like, you know, generation, so many people smoke weed. That to your point about high maintenance, that's probably more what that shows about is about all of the different people that are connected by this you know, kind of common thread,

you know. So, yeah, that's a good point. Uh, let me see here. Jacob Cousara says, not a weed movie at all. But in the eighties and nine to five, the pivotal scene where Lily, Jane and Dolly smoke up and hatch a plan to do undo their chauvinistic boss, that is a great scene. Great movie, Dolly Parton smokes weed in the movie. Think God, it was only in the very funny I think if I'm not mistaken that U Lily Tomlins supplied it. That sounds on brand. Yeah.

Definitely wasn't Jane Fond because she was the uptight one. I don't think it was Dolly. It's been a while, but it was. It was pretty funny. Yeah, I think Lily Tomlin had a joint or something like that, got it. Uh. One of our old friends, Luke harkoll Road says, gotta go with up in Smoke, Cheese and Cheech and Chong, basically just stringing together a bunch of stuff from their comedy albums. But it works. Uh. Yeah, you know you know how I feel about those Yep, they occupy a

certain place in in cinematic and comedic history. I think it's sort of like a Gallagher esque situation. You know. It's like, this is the thing we do. We're cheaching song, we're the weed stoner guys, and this is our bit, you know, and let's stretch it out for as many movies as we can get paid for. Yeah, And it turns out there's not a ton of these movies because the same ones are coming up again and again. Um there's a movie from Dylan Thomas here called How High?

Isn't that the one with the Redman and um method Man and in another Man just the two men just just read and method. I think that sounds about right. Yeah, I believe that's correct. And you know, I don't know if you call this strictly a weed movie at all. It's not, but I think Friday could maybe gather in that general area as a is a good comedy featuring lots of weed. Friday is a good movie, though, Like that's like a solid ass picture, you know, like that,

it's good. I love at the beginning when ice Cube's mom tells him to have the milk or have water with his cereals are out of milk? Gross gross? Can you imagine water cereal if you really think about it? Though, milk is kind of gross too. I like it, but when you really give it too much thought, it starts to kind of come apart, you know, like the idea of drinking milk and it's just cow juice, you know,

it's like watery liquid cow juice. I don't, I don't, I don't know, I don't know what about skim skim, forget about a whole milk or nothing. That's that's where I'm gonna draw the line. Well, we gotta go with two percent in our house because of Ruby's age. But those first couple of years were blissful when you had the whole milk in the house before you got to make that switch to two percent. It was the what is this? I don't know about this? What does this

have to do with age? Was this like a you drink whole milk into a certain age and then they recommend you go down to two percent. Oh interesting, that's what they say. But boy, I love that whole milk with a cookie. Oh yeah, that's true. Now it's true. I love milk. I'm just saying, if you really give it too much thought, it sounds so it starts to seem gross. Rotten Tomatoes says of How High, How High is a sloppily constructed stoner movie filled with lame, vulgar jokes.

Oh that's funny. Alicia diet says, this is a good comment. One of our old friends says, I can't name a specific movie, but I've always found it interesting to rewatch a movie I saw as a kid. And then as an adult pick up on the more adult related happenings in the movie that just went way over my head. That one of those is the scene in Romancing the Stone that I saw in the theater when I was jeez, what year did that come out. I couldn't have been

more than like ten years old. And they find this old abandoned cargo plane in the jungle that was used for for Holland weed through South America, and they're big bales of marijuana and he starts a fire with it, and there's just I just always remember Michael Douglas throws the big bale of wheat on the fire and goes, that's what I call it kip fire. And I don't When I was ten years old, I had no idea. I was like, yeah, it looks nice. That's so funny

the child. The big one for me was that I just didn't understand that it was a narrative thing was in pulp fiction. When she's doing cocaine, I understood what cocaine was sort of just you know, ephemarily, I guess or but she she does the heroin instead of cocaine, and then she probably didn't get the difference. I didn't understand the difference. Yeah, I I didn't understand the distinction.

I assumed, Yeah, I just didn't get that narrative like little twist, but also did not understand that the gimp character was uh a only raping thing. Raimes's character did not pick up on that at all. When I was a little kid, I just think I just didn't know what I was looking at. And then I, oh, so when he was bent over and getting ramrotted, he didn't. I didn't understand what that. I just that was I was.

I saw it very young, Chuck. I think I was probably like twelve or thirteen when I say that movie, and You're like, are they building something? Yeah? They wrestling helping him get a kink out of his neck, Like what's going on? He was helping him get a kink out of his butt hole exactly exactly. Oh goodness me. The innocence of youth is so so great. It really it's very fleeting, you know. Yeah, Yeah, that's for sure.

I remember the first time I smelled pot at my very first concert when I saw a Cheap Trick when I was eleven at the Fox Seater here in Atlanta in two I smelled pot, and the first time you smell that smell, it's unlike. It's kind of like the first time you drink a beer, doesn't taste like anything you've ever tasted before. And I smelled the pot and it smelled like nothing else I had ever smelled. And I was like, what is it that? Do you remember

thinking it was it was gross? Do you think that you thought it was a gross Did it register as a gross smell? Not? Really, It just smelled. It was just completely different than any other smell my little nose had ever registered. So I didn't know what to think

about it. Yeah, it's funny. I brought you into uh to l A with me when we went up for the podcast Wars, and um, you were you were there, and um, we were staying at this hotel and uh, you know Hollywood near our studios, and I had to have the weed talk with her because every elevator smells like straight dank, and I just finally she kept being like, what is that? And you know, it wasn't like it

was a big deal. I was just like, well, uh, here in California, marijuana it was legal, um, and so people can carry it around and the kind that they have here is really strong and has a very strong smell. So that's what that smell is. And she was yeah, and she was like, I don't like it. I'm like, that's fine, give it till your sixteen, okay, eight? And I'm kidding, jack I'm kidding obviously. Well, I mean, you know, kids are gonna do what they're gonna do. I think

I didn't. Uh, I didn't try marijuana until I was in college, so I was. I was definitely on the straight and narrow as a high schooler. And I'm glad actually and totally yeah, yeah, I agree something. I mean when you're if you're getting stone when you're thirteen and fourteen, and almost all my friends did. Uh, I don't know, just too young. I think there's that line in the h in Jackie Brown where um, I think it's Robert de Niro's character says to Bridget Fonda's character, you gotta

quit smoking. That she's gonna rob you of your combition ambition. Yeah, exactly, and she says, what if your ambition is to sit around and get stoned all day? It's such a great line, that's wonderful. That ship is gonna rob you of your ambition. Uh, let me see you here, Chez. There aren't no good weed movies. Everyone's saying half baked because that's the only one in Pineapple and Express they're even halfway good. Grandma's Boy, Courtney Huber says, grandma His Boy. I never heard of

that one. Yeah, that one is one of the worst reviewed movies of all time? Is it really looks like that one? Up on a rotten Tomatoes hold on Grandma's Boy sixteen per cent? And it says a gross out comedy that's more gross than comedy. Grandma's Boy is lazy and unrewarding, and we'll rob you of your ambition, and we'll rob you of your ambitions. But here's the thing, though, dude, movies like this aren't meant to be well reviewed. No one's saying that these are epic works of like cinematic genius.

They're just easy and fun and stupid, and you can turn your brain off and have a good time watching it, you know, and every pod head will watch it, So you've got that demographic built in. Because they don't have a they don't have a lot to choose from. Lennya Burnett says, Grandma's Boy as well. First movie my husband and I watched together and he's been proposed to me while we were watching it. Oh my lord, all right, all right, we're gonna give up on this one. A

bunch of people are saying, day's confused. Sophia Fernandez head the Inger and one of our old friends. Uh yeah, all right, we did it. Oh this is a good one. That this is a little little line from Grandma's Boy review, just like this is really good writing here. The sex, fart and pot jokes come so fast and furious that a white flag seems the most appropriate response, like surrender, I give up. You're bombarding me with with sex, fart

and pot jokes. All right, now we're gonna move on to another question asked about movie sequels, but specifically a movie sequel that is not part of a larger series or trilogy. So it can't be part two of three or two of four, just a one to punch, which happens less than you think, because it seems like once you make two, they're always saying like, let's do the trilogy, you know, yeah, unless you have some od tour that's like, no,

it's it. We stopped it too well, And then people are cheating already, so if you cheated, you're not getting read Austin our dev Sky our old friend again, says a SPINERA when Nature Calls was way better than the first one. To me, all right, fair enough, I don't think I thought that one was very good. Actually that's the one I like. Well, I mean, there's the part where he like climbs out of a rubber rhinos ass like naked and covered in like weird amniotic fluid for

some reason, and that's great. I don't, I don't. I just don't remember why he was, like, I think he was trapped. It was an amniotic flu I think it was sweat. I think he had been trapped inside of it and he ended up having the wedding to crawl out of like this rubber rhino decoy's ass um. Yeah, I don't know. Like I thought the first day Spenturer was really fun, but I was also like eleven and uh, talk your butt was the height of of comedic timing for sure. Oh it was good. You know, it was funny.

He was he was sort of at his physical comedic at the time. I think if you look back at the second one too, there's some kind of problematic cultural

stuff in it, because I don't remember. It's like it's in you know, I think it's an Australia, Like it's the uh Aborigines or something like that, or it's some tribal group and there's this like this like Sacred Bat or something named like Wakaka or some ship, and like every time he says it, he says it and the kind of mocking Well, I don't know the whole thing is. I just remember it being a little weird, doesn't well, no, probably not. Here's one. I didn't even consider it because

they were so far apart. But she's right. I think Catherine H. Brynnac or Bryniac says Blade Runner nine liked it even better on a second watch. I've only seen that once. I need to dive down into that one again. I really liked it. I think it's great. I find it to be a better movie than the first one in terms of just the story. Obviously, the first one broke so much ground in terms of like cinematography and using the miniatures and just the whole world building of it.

But I thought the second one like had a more interesting story and just like had more nuance to it. I really really liked it. Yeah, for sure. People don't understand this question, nol. They're going with part threes and good God. Just just do what I say, everyone, Just do what I say. Just follow instructions. Brian p say, see one of Earl Pala says Wayne's roll too, uh, and he said it mostly holds up. I agree, Okay, Now I have not seen this yet. Our old friend

Tany Collex from Australia says Paddington too. I've heard those are both really good there, wonderful, and I think to told me better. Two is better. That's absolutely accurate. It's got. It's uh Gleason, who's the elder Gleason? Um who no, no, no, like the the Irish guy. His son is Dom Hall Gleason. Is that his name? Oh it is Don Hall Gleason, his son. It's his son. Yeah. Oh I didn't know that. Yeah,

but he's in it. He plays this like this, this kind of hardened con vic to Paddington turns into a big old softie with his delightful warm heart making marmalade and stuff. And uh, it's got. Hugh Grant is in it, playing like this washed up actor. Um, it's just great and it's got a lot of great uh weirdo comedy people from Britain in it, like Richard Iwaddi and some of the people from like The Mighty Boush and a lot of those. It's just they're both really fantastic movies.

All Right. I gotta see those because I think it was you that told me how great they were. You can watch them with Ruby too. Like I'm telling you, they're just one. They're wonderful. They're just there's there's jokes that you will get that she won't get, but just the action is all very pure and kind, and it's just they're they're really special movies. I'm telling you, it's crazy how we're there. I'm gonna do it. Daniel McCoy says Babe Pig in the City Complete one eight from

the first movie in terms of tone, but Bonker is awesome. Uh. That is one of Jesse Thorne's favorite movies, so I'm gonna have to check that out. I never saw Babe two, but I've heard nothing but good things, and I love the first Babe. I still think it's so crazy that the same guy that did the Mad Max movies it's a little weird. Uh. Brian Jay and Gart says Escape from l A. The cameos and premise are fun and ridiculous. Uh wow interesting Escape from l A. It was terrible

to me, awful. It's so bad. It's almost that there's a how did this get made? About it? And like it's got some of the worst like green screen effect that there's a part where he's like surfing. It looked like it was made thirty years before it was made exactly. It's bizarre, weird, but you know, I would watch it. It's definitely fun and there are some good cameos, but like, just everything about it just is off. It's just so

so strange. Well and if it was one of those movies too that did the worst thing a sequel couldn't do to me too, which is to do the exact same film and just like a mad lib just replace few certain things in a different city. You know, so lazy, but hey we're yucking. Someone's young. He loved it. Old friend David Mills says, I always love Airplane Too. Not nearly as good as the original, but part two is still great. Yeah, I think Airplane Too was funny. Did

you see those movies. No, probably not. I don't think so. I was more of a naked gun guy myself. Yeah, isn't that the same? Isn't that also Jerry Zucker the Zucker zu Zucker. Yeah, sure, it's a little spoof, funny, silly spoof movies. Our old friend beccal Loeo. Of course, Frozen two better than the first in every way. Yeah, pros and two was great. I loved it. Uh, let me see another vote for Blade Runner from Chris Nap

Short Circuit too, that's from Eddie Waters. I gotta love a sequel with the balls not to cast any of the original actors. Okay, I don't think I realized that was the case. Isn't that the one where like the guy playing the Indian character was actually white? And yeah it was Fisher Stevens. Yeah that's the thing. Was that only in the first one though? Or did they, like course correct on the second one? I think I only

hire an Indian guy. I think I only saw the first one, and if I'm reading this right, there was a whole different, uh character set in the second one. I don't even know. I might be wrong, but I'm certainly not gonna go watch it. And find out. Joe Herndon says Young Guns Too was better than the first. I'm trying to remember Young Guns was a big movie in my house in college. We watched that movie quite a bit, and I'm trying to remember if Young Guns Too was better or not, But I do. I think

I remember liking it. Okay, they were you know, they weren't the best westerns, but they were good for the time. I think, you know, I think this is actually an Indian dude in the in search short circuit too, So maybe that's why. Maybe they like it was such a fallout from the first one that they were like, you know, well, let's let's do a mulligan, and they just kind of like recast the whole thing. I like the Young Guns movie a lot, and I really like the bon Jovi

song let's associated with those movies. It's Blades of Glory. Yeah, shot dar in a blaze of glory. No. The only reason I did not start singing that, it's because I was just waiting on you, because I knew that you were going to built that out. Dude. I saw you even sitting back and taking a breath. Oh wait, No, Fisher Stevens isn't isn't a short circuit too, as is Michael McKean interesting. M So, I don't know if this guy's got his facts quite straight? Okay, remember that? All right? No,

we're gonna do We're gonna move on here. We do a lot of hikus here on the old movie crush and hikus are easy. No, you know you say that, Chuck, you know it's not easy a limerick? Oh? Is that that's? Uh? How does that go? I knew a girl from Nantuckett who's you know, blah blah blah blah blah buckets. Yeah, she's something that something and something and something in Cluckets, right, got it? Those are tough? Yeah, well we just did one.

Couldn't be that hard. It's pretty good. It's pretty good. Alright. I'm gonna go with my friend Mike. Of course, Mike did this. You remember Mike from the show Everyone. He was my pal who did Vernon Florida. Is his movie crush pick and Mike, Mike says this twas a middle school boys nightly trist and these are supposed to be movie related, by the way, and that's the whole point. Twas a middle school boys Nightly trist This alone time

would not be missed. Cinemax took some rigging for some real quick gig gig gigging, just to boast that I'd seen Schindler's fist. Whoa Schindler's fist? Isn't that like a like a porn like like know, if it was a real one, they wouldn't have shown that on Cinemax though. They only had like The Red Shoe Diaries and you know, the light Erotica. You know they didn't have. Oh, I think it's best not to upbreak this down too seriously. Wait a minute, that's not a Cinemax film. I am

fully No. I'm all I'm saying is I was on board until he named the film, and I'm like, no, you had me until the Schindler's fist. That No, you had me until the fist. All right? Mark, If you hear my dogs barking in the background, that's because that's just any that's just life. Yeah, anything happened outside, It

could be a leaf falling on the ground. It. Mark Colebinson came up with this one for Carrie for a very scary carry to get laid for senior prom she must turn up her lovely charm and her best red dress. Must down this telekinetic spark plug, all drenched in blood of friends, must with a lure primrose powers ensure a sweet night's end. All right, they'd a bit from the rhyming pattern, but that's okay. It kind of sounds like like like a riddle that the troll would ask of

you at a bridge crossing? What is your name? Exactly? Our oldest of friends kbo Kelly Butler Olsen says this. There once was a girl named Ariel. She saved a hot guy and she fell in love. He's a prince the fish. They dropped hints for her name because she just couldn't tell. So that only works if you pronounced it Ariel Ariel Ariel because because it fell and then tell right, I probably screwed it. I think you know

I would pronounce it Ariel. That's in Little Mermaid, right, I would never pronounce it arie L. So I think our our limerick writer is making an assumption that we would pronounce a name incorrectly to make her rhyme scheme work. So hey, that's okay. She's one of our oldest friends and all, what are you gonna do her like that. I'm not doing it. I'm just look, I'm just keeping a real man. To another old pal cat, Jim Bruno says this, There once was a bike and a man.

The bike was stolen. An adventure began with large march. He traveled far road with an outlaw in a car. No one can do tequila dance like be we can, big adventure. It's pretty good for me so far. Okay, you go in there. I mean, I don't know, I mean, I guess, I'm I don't know. I'm feeling judge you today for some reason. Chuck all right, givon the Bodette, one of our old friends, says this, a man reliving

the same day. He makes sure that things go his way, but he slowly finds out that's not what love is about. And punk Sitani is where he will stay. That's pretty good. That's very good, okay, yea solid, really good, very solid Limerick Groundhog Day. I no, no, he was. That was pulp fiction shit. Oldest of friends, Austin our deb skis on it today. There once was a bat named Wayne. To all the villains and bad guys, he brought pain with pal whack and zop he fought through the night.

M hmm, shouldn't that rhyme with zop? He was true, He truly was the dark night. Three cheers for the bat name Wayne. I think there was something missing in there, but that was still good. That's about Wayne's world, right, Uh huh, that's right. Oh, let me see here, Little Dan. This is from Brian Pass, one of our oldest of friends. Little Danny knew he was in for a scare. Those twins seemed friendly, but oh what a pair. And beware tub ladies seems super hot. But goodness no, she's really not.

It was all bound to happen, even though it's not fair because Dad's always been the caretaker. There. I think there was an extra line in there. People. Yeah, he says he cheated. He acknowledged at least a cop to it. I can understand that. I can respect that limericks are hard. Let me see Ian Tyson says this, a young farmer by the name of sky Walker, and Han his old buddy, a talker, and the falcon they fly. Don't get cocky, he'll cry. Find the princess invader her stalker pretty good

as far as I'm concerned. If you nail that rhyming scheme. Then you've done it right for sure. The limericky. But until like there's lots of dirty limericks, you think that's usually yeah, sort of the point is to talk about someone's body parts, some sort of body Canterbury Tales esque. Yeah, kind of situation. The miller, the miller told us tale. Uh. Dan Floyd says this in tree Sap they found d

n A and then started cloning away. They thought they were starre role and now they're in peril, thus proving that life finds a way. Hats off to you, sir, quite good, very very very zippy. That is a good one. Oh here's the Jaws one, all right, is from Dylan H. Smith in the In the New England Island of Amity, a shark attack causes calamity. They'll need a big vote and also a vote because Vaughan being mayor is in

the sequels insanity. Okay, I get it. The fact that him is He's still the mayor in the sequel, got it, I got you. It's like a Trump to term is Jaws to the one that has Dennis Quaid in it? Or is that three? Mm hmm. I want to say that's three. Yeah, because two is still Roy Scheider. Again, that was kind of a none of none of the sequels are good, but not our hero or our other hero. The underwater guy. Mr. Holland's opus guy. What the hell

is his name? Yust, He's not in it. He's not into no no, no, no, uh yeah, this is our old belt Jimmy Mallory. He's clearly doesn't know what a limerick is. I'm gonna read it just because this is what he says to the Mirth Mobile Bohemian Rhapsody. We're not worthy schwing. I think is that a Haiku's mirth Mobile? Yes it is. Oh God, bless you, Jimmy. That's great. He's he just wasn't expecting the curve ball that was the limerick challenge. Yeah, which is interesting because I very

specifically say, hikus are easy. Let's do limericks. That's all right, all right, here's me Linda Baccalo. When a wor old friend says this about Ghostbusters, Dana has seen a ghost. Peter acts like a game show host. Who are you going to call? Ghost explode out of the wall? Stay puffed? Is who Ray thinks of the most all right, you've heared a bit, but that's okay. I'm giving anyone a big old wide birth year, nol. I think that's fair

and very empathetic of your chuck. And these are troubled times. Let me see here. This is from Joshua Edman from Reservoir Dogs. There once was a man called Mr Pink in a coffee shop. He made a stink. The others all died by the time he arrived. All he and he got all the cash. So we think pretty good cute, Joshua Edman. Uh, I applaud your efforts to just do a reservoir Dogs Limerick. I love it. Some people are doing several that are clearly enthralled with limericks. Let me

see here. It's a lost art. You know you don't. Nobody really does limericks anymore. I appreciate you bringing this, bringing this back up, Chuck, Amen, let's bring back Oh. Let me see here, Sabrina Grogan. There once was a fellow named Rhett whose love was a Southern coquette. He tried hard to shake her, but he had too heartbreaker. Do you do you think he ever had some regret? That's a good one. Gone with the wind. Nice work. Have you seen Gone with If you're rhyming Coquette, Oh yeah,

with Rhett, then you've done a good job. Yes, of course I've seen Gone with the Wind NL. I have not seen it, Chuck. Does that make me a bad person? No? That makes you null? Okay, that's a That's not a movie I would have expected you to see. Let's just say that. I started watching it on a plane once, but I found it a little, a little tiresome, and I switched to Fast and the Furious movie. I think so you watched the opposite of Gone with the Wind. Basically, Uh,

Scott Field says this Chuck doesn't like Kevin Smith. This really has me quite miffed. Clerks is the bomb, the milk Lady is his mom. It's what It's what you expect from a guy who smokes splits. Well, he didn't smoke pot back then, so in your face, Scott deal. Interesting. Yeah, I think some people, uh are mad at me because I don't love Kevin Smith. I don't really love Kevin Smith, all right. I do like I like Dogma, and I

like Clerks, and I liked Mall Rats just fine. But would I ever find myself like to go back and rewatch them and you know his careers. I like him as a personality. I think he's a really interesting interview and I like his podcast, and um, he's got some great stories and he's he's an interesting dude, you think I do. I think he's I'd like to like kick it with them, and like you know, you would, I would. I would totally blaze down with Evan Smith. Yeah, okay, yeah,

just that's great. Now. I hope you guys have fun. I hope you're I hope you don't plan on saying many words while you're doing that. What do you mean because he's gonna don't let me get one in edgewise? Is that what you maybe? Perhaps fair enough? I see where you're going with That's all right, He's great. You might alter ego Brett Giles. Brett Giles gives us this ho ho ho. I have a machine gun and Severus snap is on the run. Who cares about glass? It's

a pain in my ass though I'm barefoot. These Germans are done. Oh cute. It would be a I'm sorry, Chuck, I must correct you as the resident Harry Potter expert here, it's Severust Snape, my dude, Okay, it's not snap uh snape snape Snap what I say? Snap Snap? That's from Harry Potter. Yeah, Severus Snape is the character that Alan Rickman plays him in the har Okay, this all made sense because I was like, hey, this is die hard. I don't know that severe snappet. What a dumb ship.

Just had to had to school you on some Potter. I'm really glad. Here's another one from Joshua Edman. He's having a good time with these. A high school lad named Max Fisher developed a crush on a teacher. Herman complained her affections depleted, and so she wound up with neither man. Rhyme scheme just really took a dive there. He said, there's a lot of slant rhymes, but I think that still works. Okay. Fisher developed a Chrishner teacher,

herman competed, refections depleted. Oh, and so she wound up with neither No, I think that works. I might have read it wrong at first. Maybe maybe that's it. Maybe that's it. He's like, you screwed up my limerick. Man. I love the I love the language though. I love the Yeah, it's it's very Uh, the words a word play. Yes, all right, let's finish up here. These are these are all really good. Let's finish up with our old pal, David Mills. Will Ferrell can cause some people friction for

good actors. Nobody picks him. But if you want to see a movie where he excels, watch Stranger than Fiction. You're sort of wrapping it around there. I get it. Is that the that's the Farrell one that's like Stranger than Fiction. Yeah, it's good movie. It feels like a poor man's Charlie Kaufman script kind of a little bit, uh, kind of has that vibe, has like a being John Malkovich kind of vibe. Uh. It was a good movie. I haven't seen it. I just just from the trailer

and from reading about it. I think I was turned off to it because I felt like it was ripping, you know, Charlie Kaufman a little bit. But I'll check it out. It's worth it. It was good, good, Yeah, totally worth it. Uh. And know what, I am going to read one more because here's one from Evil Dead, Uh, the Evil Dead series from James G. Woodbeck. A dead eyed hunter named Ash with his chainsaw arm. He did slash necronomicons curse in his hand. It got worse. He

took it off with a heck and a splash. So good? Is that too? Is that specifically referencing too or is that army of darkness? I think that would be too since he definitely referenced the chainsaw. But but that was well done. I'm gonna try and write some limericks, noll.

This is my new hobby. I think I had a little social distancing outdoor hang for the first time, and all of this with a dear, dear friend of mine, um and we watched Evil Dead to projected on the side of his house while while we all sat like six ft apart or more around a fire. We also watched What's New Pussycat? Have you seen that? It's so sexist and does not hold up, but it is delightful. It's so stupid, and it's a movie at the time.

It really is at the time, it's like it's a Woody Allen first screenwriting credit, I believe, and he's in it and plays this nebbish little you know, kind of like loser character who can't get the girl, you know, very archetempal Woody Allen, But um Peter Sellers plays the quack psychiatrists with the bad haircut and the French accent. It's really really fat and fantastic. That's great. Was that you watched that same night? Same night we can double feature. Yeah,

we watched most of that. We realized it was getting really long or like how much movie is left, and there was like a whole hour and a half left, and so we just kind of raged through, like just fast forward and just to see, like because it gets kind of ridiculous, like it said, Oh, and then there's a car race and you know, it's just there's like a bull whip kind of kink party. All of a sudden, it's just a very strange movie and kind of meanders.

And then we put on Evil Dead two and watched that all the way through because it's just it is so good. Chuck, let me ask you this, have you ever thought about, like what as someone who's worked on film, like to set up some of those shots and Evil did too. Just the logistics of it. It's out of control, the way the way he's like moving through the forest and breaking tree limbs and like flipping upside down and all that stuff. I mean, just the reality of having

to rig that stuff. It's just mind boggling to me. Yeah, when I did the Evil Dead to episode with Joe Garden, he beats a student of that film, and he they actually rigged this big iron cross and strapped him to it and spun him like there were you know, everything in that movie almost was practical effects. You know, there was no CG going on. So when he's going through the wood spinning there overcranking that camera or I guess undercranking the camera and spinning him in a circle, and

that's just what it looks like. It's amazing, it's incredible. It really is like a uh, cinematic feat the whole thing, you know. So, Noel, What's New? Pussycat is one hour and fifty minutes long, So twenty minutes into the film, you guys were saying, how much longer is this? Okay, Chuck, I'm probably exaggerating a little bit. Like my mother always said, I never let the facts stand in the way of a good story. I think was that a good story? I'm sorry, I'm being such a wow Chuck, Now, that

was a great story, and I'm just totally riming. It's fine, Chuck, This quarantine is really really changing people, isn't it. Oh not me, I'll always give you a hard time. Alright. No, I think that was a good one in the can Happy April everyone, I think. Uh, isn't it Earth Day two? Or is that tomorrow? Happy Quarantinea Ween Quarantine Ica sure coren Twanza quarantismus. Uh. Yeah, I hope everyone enjoyed this. Um, we're like I said, this month. Sorry, this Friday, we're

gonna be back with searching for Bobby official official? What am my two years old? No comment? I hurt, I hurt, my shoulder, my hail, hoots, my hell? Uh searching for Bobby Fisher on Friday with Cold Stratton. Uh. Emily and I are going to continue doing these quarantine house games. I don't know if you've heard that. No, we're we're doing this game that I saw a meme online where they had eight different houses of five very disparate celebrities and you have to choose which which house you would

want to be quarantined with. So it's like you know some really good people and then like a couple of awful people, So you really have to think about, like, boy, I get this person that I love and this person that I love, but I have to endure this person, like which house do I want to be in? So we did a special EP on that that was from the meme. And now I'm starting to write my own and construct my own two especially frustrate Emily and UH, and we're going to be doing more of those as well.

Good stuff. I look forward to hearing some of those, Chuck and UH to getting back together for some more minis. This is always always a highlight of my week. Yeah, me too, man, And I can't wait to give you a big old hug next time we can see each other. All right, we're out, see you next week.
