Transcript

I'll clean the erasers, missus, Muffy. Good morning Metroplex. Just like day four of the last thing you say before we go in the air, I say it. Yeah, that's kind of how Skins does his teases and kind of how Mikey does his live spots too. Yeah. I like it. It's a skill I need at home off air to on air, segue at home. And now we bring you into our world. Good morning Metroplex. No, no, no, we're going into your world. If you're coming into our, I don't know, but we have a good Thursday morning

of fun. At nine o'clock. A copper on the air cracking cases. Well, you're asking if copper is an acceptable term. Probably is the list of cop nicknames, though that can't be too bad. I don't know if cop is. Yeah, I guess it is. It's fine, right, A cop? Yeah? What does cop mean? I don't think it means citizens on patrol? Like the Police Academy film series taught us because they were underfunded in like Police Academy four and it was Police Academy four. Citizens on

patrol? Who made it to four? Me? Everyone? Cool? What who didn't give up after two? I have a recollection of those movies being excellent. Okay, let's look at the series. Do you think they like being called the fuzz? Fuzz is kind of cool. Almost three year old calls him popo. That's good? Okay? Is that good though? Or is that a popo? Pretty good? Is that slanderous? I don't know. We can find out at nine o'clock because we're gonna have some some hot

fuzz popo cops on. Okay, here we go. Police Academy number one, Police Academy two, their first assignment, Funny, Police Academy three, back End Training, Police Academy four, Citizens on Patrol. I think I was. I was still in there. But Police Academy five assignment Miami Beach. They won me there and that was probably the last time I said. I don't think there were more. Yeah, are you comfortable? Sit down?

Yeah? Right now, there's another a couple more. Please Academy six, City under Siege, and then they ditched the numbers in nineteen ninety four with the final Police Academy mission to Moscow. Wow, did you stay this? No, any of them? At some point you keep milking that old cow and nothing comes out. Yeah, and you head to Moscow and then call it and then every movie that does it. I mean, Hangover three got just reamed. Hangover to actually got favorable reviews. I didn't see either

one of them. That's like, what are else you gonna do? They found Doug on the roof Hangover one end it see you. Hangover one is beautiful. I think I hated too, and I don't think I even saw three. Yeah, same. I really wonder where this I don't know if we can credit Police Academy with any of this. Not They certainly didn't invent the sequel, but the milk It sequel just keep going just name recognition the horror horrors genre kind of yeah, yeah, did that? I mean,

how many effing Friday the thirteenth do we need? Or Halloween's millions? Horror and torn Yeah yeah, blood and honey Emmanuel. I think those just end up being cash grabs because they know they can make them super cheap. Yeah. No, for horror, almost almost a different category, but they turned

those out too. I'm looking at all the Friday thirteenth, nineteen eighty the original, then eighty one, had it ready, then eighty two, and then eighty four, eighty five, eighty six, eighty eight, nineteen eighty nine. But Airplane did it right. They just did two just two, yeah, airplane and then Airplane too when Naked Gun did like seven. Well, Airplane had the first one, which was an airplane, and the second was the the Lunar Shuttle. I think I liked Airplane two. It's not

bad. I mean it's got you know, if they're doing stick Yeah, same Brothers comedy. It's not like the sequel really just inherently should be any worse. It's just it's funny because I know people and it went off course and was flying directly at the sun William Shattner too, yes, and then at the top of the moon base or something. I don't remember, but I know that it's it's relevant because sometimes when people try to quote airplane and you're like, no, no, no, that's from Airplane too, you're

getting them confused. So you know that it stuck. That was airplane too. The sequel is ever a sequel, just kind of a remake with the same running gangs pretty much. Yeah, like you've got the when you show up to board the the Lunar Shuttle at the terminal. Keep in mind of the times. But one of the bits was they had this an African American dude standing out in front of the airport with a jacket, kind of opening it up, going yo, Luna shuttle tickets by the window by the aisle,

like scalping the lunar shuttle tickets. Really, I like to Ankerman two, but it was just the same jokes over and over. Horrible Bosses too, also quite watchable, but it's the same thing. Horrible Bosses is funny. They're both great, very funny. But you know, if that's the formula, and movies are hard to make, go make your money, and no problem with it. I never bothered that Adam Sandler did four Grownups movies. He wants to take his friends to Hawaii for a month, big deal,

make your money. It's always clear the sequels that are cash grabs for the franchise, and then there's the ones that actually evolve and elevate the story, like Done Too. You know that's by all accounts, it's better than the first one. Yea. I'm kind of looking forward to seeing it the premeditated sequel or trilogy. Fine, yeah, it's like, well, it's always like one story and you've got to break it up into chunks. But they spend all the time making the first Police Academy. It's like, okay,

well let's make another one. We got well, it's like the classic. You know, it takes whatever, twenty years to make your first album, in six months to make your second one. Yeah. Yeah, So there's so much emotion and thought and life packed into that first album. I wonder what's movies? What mainstream movie series had the most sequels? Bond They those aren't sequels, those were like chapters. Yeah, but that's a great, that's a great we'll tull that out then. For mini books, I

don't think it was. Uh ten was Karate Kid with five? Rocky with seven? Rocky well, yeah, because they're kind of creed yep, kind of creeds. Lord of the Ring seven again. I've viewed that as more of a book, Harry Potter eight that falls under the chapters. Chapters. Okay, well see me? Is it weird? X Men has ten? It says, oh see, yeah, now it's all watered down because that's

comic books and you can just pick a story and do those forever. I will say, that's if you Oh, they didn't even count the dead pools. Okay, go ahead, what will you Batman. You said ten, how many fast and furious. I'm still stroggling. I just watched us last night. There was a show on Vice. You know, they do behind the music and behind the rest dark side of the wrestling, and they have great shows. They had one about movies being made. I watched half of

one on Batman last night actually, and it was really cool. How about how they decided to hire Tim Burton and because Batman was all, you know, wacky for the sixties show, you know, and they're like, well they saw beetle Juice because its fine, we're talking about beetlejuicees history off the air with JJ and they're like, this is what Gotham should look like. That whole vibe of beetle Juice kind of h and this is sort of what

the original Batman did kind of look like, you know. It was a little grittier and darker, not as wacky, I guess, but the Joker is pretty wacky. And then they're like, all right, who's gonna play Batman? And they were looking at all these other people, you know,

and then Tim Burton was like, I got it. Let's pick Michael Keaton and the world they said, if the Internet existed, Michael Keaton never would have been Batman, no chance, because they were like they had a letter that some that they had two hundred signatures on that some state they wrote to their senator to stop Michael Keaton from being Batman. But they're like, look, the key to Batman is Bruce Wayne. You have to be able to sell the mysterious depth of Bruce Wayne, not just who's in the suit,

you know, kicking and punching and flying. I mean usually with those roso they try to pick somebody who's like at the hottest at the peak of acting at the time. Because I'm sure I guess Michael Keaton was there. He was hot, he was big, but he was a comedian. I mean he was he was absolutely mister mom. He was uh interested. Other hit Michael Keaton film, Yeah, Multiplicity Blockbusters. Multiplicity came out in the mid nineties. Was actually pretty fun. I mean, George getting cast as Batman,

but this was He's like it was the hottest thing. No, I know, but this was before the superhero boom. This was there just started it, right, and they're like Michael Keaton. So then they got Michael Keaton. They're like, all right, they once they got on set, everyone's like, all right, it works. Once they put them in the suit, the Bruce Wayne suit, not even the Batman suit, they're like,

all right, this works. But but before that, even they were trying to figure out Joker, you know, and they were looking at comedians and stuff like that, and then they finally settled them, Dude, do you think we can get Jack? And like the producers of Batman were like, they just did a film with Nicholson, and Nicholson just bent him over a barrel for back end points on Batman, on the Joker and any future

money that it would make. I don't know if that applies to still now, if he's getting a dollar from The Dark Knight or anything like that, I kind of doubt it. Yeah, but any of the merchandise, he got a good chunk of all that and a big upfront payment to be the Joker. But oh yeah, what Tim Burton did. He was watching the Shining and you know when he busts through the door and here's Johnny. He

was trying to convince a producer that Jack Nicholson could do this. So he took that still image of him looking through the door and he kind of smiling, and he painted his face white, oh cool, and put red lipstick on him and he's like, look at that, there's your joker and he's and then they cuts the Cuckoo's nest where he's laughing maniacally and they're like,

dude, this guy can do this. This can work. It's funny that between Keaton and Nicholson that Tim Burton picked two guys at the apex of their eyebrow game, too, right, right, because Keaton can, Dude, he can flat out play an evil looking guy, you know, with those facial expressions. And you saw him at the Oscars when he was staring down uh the way, Yeah, staring down Arnold and Devido. I mean that

was really intense. He's had an intense look to him when he when he wants to go to that and so yeah, of course it works with with Batman. And they picked the serious actor Nicholson to play the joker, and then they picked the comedian to play Batman, and then you could have flip flopped those honestly, No, you couldn't have had Jack Nicholson play bat too old, too old to round. Yeah, they could have out of shape Batman got him fit. I don't know how Tally is. They not made

a fat Batman yet, fat Man, fat Man. They did a fart Man. Yeah, do you want to watch fart Man? I kind of. If you lose a bat today, you can watch fart Man. There's no bets. They also they built their bat new batmobile. It was perfect, and then Michael Keaton got in it and his stupid bat ears were too

long and he couldn't even fit his head in it. So every scene that he's in the Batmobile and the original Batman, it's dark at the top because they essentially just trim off his ears and they sold it to Russ Martin at an auction. Yeah. Did Russ Martin have a Batmobile? Absolutely? Did we? Uh? Well, No, I never saw him up here because he was working from home pretty much had his own setup and did his own

thing. But I know that before. So when we were coming to the Eagle in twenty twenty one of that, Ben Rogers was in contact with us via text and they went over to his house and stuff because we were going to do some video bit to announce that we were coming to the Eagle. I'm sure he was real amenable to that. He actually was to been in text, but I don't think that he was in person. I don't know, because you never do day to day for us. Was loose hit or

not? Not that I ever met him either, So I'm I'm talking from second hand accounts here, But I've never met Cavanaugh. Is he nice? Is very nice? You've never seen him before? Do not know what he looks like? Very nice? Yeah? He seems cool. May be the one guy who's up listening to our show right now of everyone else on staff. He sloped Steve. I think Steve does not sleep. I think we have a vampire. He could do, Yes, a vampire to have a

vampiric appearance, does doesn't he like? He's kind of I don't think he gets enough son. He gets almost a zero son now that you mentioned that he can't have it, not even a dash of serotonin. He also doesn't eat while the sun is up, which doctor Monic would put him on a strict supplemental diet of vitamin D A lot to me, hans, I think my vitamin D was low to everybody's. Is we don't like just go out

in the sun. I'm like, you're telling me that I should golf more and I was like, yeah, he's telling you you should stand in your yard more. I don't know what's walking a little bit of you know, cardio and golf has a lot of cardio. Yeah, little ladies, your husband's when they're golfing, they're doing it for you in the launche out of your family. I'm trying to avoid chronic pain. Okay. So the vitamin D though, I'm highly confused about because I'm I don't have any fishing.

I don't have any The doctor said it's a zero, right, yeah. Zero. I went to the Low T Center. They're like, Jesus, this is the least amount of testosterone we've seen in a grown man. Are you taking a suppy? Yeah? Take Vitamin D every day? No, once a week, oh, once a week. But you said it's about not being outside enough it and I was like, interesting, because every time you go outside too, it's also like sun streight up. You'll get skin cancer. And I'm like, well, I need tell me what's okay?

You want you? Is that not putting sunscreen on every time I go outside, the healthy effects of the sun without the ultraviolet ray, it's all green. It gets on your hands. I hate sunspray. Never use anything other than the spray, so there the cream. But even the spray ends up, it doesn't get on your hands with a little odd texture on your hands. That is a flaw that we need to put sunscreen on. We haven't evolved, Our bodies haven't evolved to sort that out yet. That if you

got the sun too long, your skin just burns. Well, I get the vitamin D and sunscreen. Things sort itself out, and you just get another ten thousand years and it probably will oh kevioh, and that will patience ten thousand years. We will be the new sun. Will we will be the sun. Batman was number five with ten Star Wars has eleven. I get more of a chapter. Yeah. Katanov texts in and says that he has actually met us before. No, oh, that's what this funt.

This number is. This number texts me somewhat regularly, and skid Mark Steve says that I get zero sun. It's a it's a point of pride for him. I mean, think about it. If you have a garage, why do you need to get in the sun with our hours? Well, yeah, I go from my garage to this parking garage. Yes. The only son that I get is if I when I you know, walk the dog and play outside with Malcolm, which you know, when it's nice outside, we're outside more than we're inside. So I do get enough. But

I mean when you're wearing clothes. I used to be tan, firm in shape. What every year that goes by, I get wider and wider, like whiter and wider, Yes, whiter and wider. It's like, damn so hard you know what to do to lose weight? It's so hard to lose weight? Not so hard and no more. But I also like any type of exercise I do. I do go to the gym. It's inside, it's inside. I have a lot of questions for all of us. So do you think the vitamin E thing works if you are fully clothed,

like it's just being outside or the sun touching your skin. I think it's the sun touching your skin that puts the vitamin D inside of you, right, that absorbs through your skin. That's why we should all start wearing more tank tops. Okay, and we'd like to offer you the Downbeat Singing tank top this spring. God no no on sale. Now get your butt inside of me. Fantastic. We had eleven more beat singing tank top for spring suns out, guns zout, Get those buns out. Oh, he's just
