Hate Watching Club Dread: Broken Lizard's Broken Movie
Have you ever anticipated a sequel only to have your expectations completely shattered? That's exactly what happened with Broken Lizard's "Club Dread," their follow-up to the cult classic "Super Troopers." What went wrong when the comedy troupe attempted to blend slasher horror with their established comedy style?
In this deeply analytical episode, we dissect the fundamental failures of "Club Dread" as both horror and comedy. The film simply can't decide what it wants to be – lacking genuine scares and creative kills while simultaneously failing to deliver consistent laughs. We explore how the movie squanders numerous comedy setups and character opportunities, creating a frustrating viewing experience where potential humor repeatedly evaporates before reaching satisfying payoffs.
Bill Paxton emerges as our unanimous highlight, delivering a genuinely entertaining performance as Coconut Pete, a washed-up Jimmy Buffett-esque resort owner with delusions of musical grandeur. His outburst about writing "Piña Colada-berg" years before "Margaritaville" represents one of the film's few genuinely memorable moments. Yet even his character suffers from the film's structural problems, with his demise occurring unceremoniously off-screen.
We compare "Club Dread" to successful horror comedies like "Shaun of the Dead," "Freaky," and "Slither," examining why these films succeed where Broken Lizard failed. The answer lies largely in character development – when characters feel like actual humans rather than caricatures, their peril generates genuine tension, allowing comedy to emerge organically from authentic situations.
Join us for this entertaining breakdown of a disappointing sophomore effort from Broken Lizard, and stick around to hear what Vin Diesel classic we'll be tackling next week. Whether you're a fan of horror comedies or just enjoy dissecting failed film experiments, this episode offers plenty of laughs and insights into the challenging art of genre-blending.

Don't annoy me.
Speaker 2:Don't, I can't make that problem. We should just cancel the show now, if I'm not allowed to annoy you. There's really no reason for us to do this show in the first place, dan, okay, okay, like we're canceling the show, it's done Well, it's been a ride.
Speaker 1:We've almost run out of bad movies. Hey watchin' with Dan and. Tony. Hey watchin' With Dan and Tony, I'm Dan.
Speaker 2:I'm Tony, I was waiting. I was like, should I jump in? This is an awkward silence. We don't love that.
Speaker 1:I forgot my own cue is an awkward silence. We don't love that. I forgot my own cue. Oh man, on this show we watch a movie, then we talk about the movie, and this week Tony got to pick a movie.
Speaker 2:And Tony, why don't you tell us a?
Speaker 1:little bit about Drinky Lizard's movie that you picked.
Speaker 2:Their name is Broken Lizard. They're one of the most famous comedic groups on the planet. It's a household name.
Speaker 1:Everybody knows Broken Lizard so, if you don't know, which you probably don't, Broken Lizard.
Speaker 2:Well, that's fun. Did you do any research about Broken Lizard? Yeah, I read a little bit. Their big thing was actually touring colleges. That was like the huge thing. And they came out with a movie called puddle cruiser and they did a tour of college um uh, showing the movie around colleges and it did pretty well. So then they got super troopers. Someone let them make super troopers and the super troopers just blew up because super troopers is a perfect film. So then they followed up super troopers with club Dread and, I'll be honest, so that's the movie we're doing today, club Dread which is Broken Lizard's third movie, even though a lot of the reviews are like this is their second movie.
Speaker 2:That is wrong and you are all idiots. This is their third movie and I remember seeing it opening night at midnight in 2004, high off of super troopers. I'm pretty sure we watched super troopers earlier that day to like prep, we pre-gamed and I I have not seen it since that night, but I remember leaving that theater just furious, just so deflated, so mad, and I'm actually really glad that we're re-watching it, because I am not nearly as mad at it as I was back then, but it is, in my opinion, a huge step down from super troopers because, well, you're not angry at it, because we've watched, amongst the most horrible movies of all, some really bad stuff yeah, it's a bad movie, but it's not like it's not the worst movie in the world.
Speaker 1:I mean a couple people in the movie should have had their. Should not have been allowed on screen again.
Speaker 2:Should have had their acting license revoked. I can't wait to hear you tipped that bit a little bit earlier. I can't wait to hear your laundry list, because for me there's like one person's movie that I was like, wow, that's, it's really bad, but you know he also directed it. So there's a whole. It's interesting. Um, but yeah, no, I, I agree with you and I think my thing is my big takeaway from this movie club dread, by the way, if you remember people, if you're just joining us, it's club dread. My big takeaway is that it's neither funny enough nor scary enough to be a horror comedy, so it's just kind of eh, it's just, it's nothing to me, you know.
Speaker 1:I mean, I think I clocked in at about one and a half jokes that landed for me, that you liked.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I can't wait to hear it, because there were several jokes that I enjoyed. The humor, the type of humor is very different from Super Troopers. But then also Beer Fest, which is the one they do after this, which is you've seen Beer Fest, you like Beer Fest enough?
Speaker 1:Beer Fest is about a group of friends who have to accomplish something. So automatically you, you know, automatically when you have friends you can be keep shitting on your friends constantly. Right, I'm assuming that's what happens. I haven't seen. I saw the movie one time. I enjoyed it. I remember. You know I was like it's a good comedy. This is a comment, it's just, you know, standard run-of-the-mill good comedy Bunch of characters that all do their character things. You have a kind of absurd situation you have, as I remember it, the people they were competing against were funny. You know, the bad guys were funny and it was a competition and it was all straightforward and you were like, okay, this is great, they had, they had to overcome something and the characters went through a thing. Yeah, I think by the nature of a slasher movie, no, there's no. First of all, you don't find out till the end why the person who's the killer is the killer. So we don't know that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, always yeah.
Speaker 1:Everyone else barely feels like they even know each other.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I mean so it none of these characters who have supposedly been working together for years, other than heffernan, they, they don't have a lot of like camaraderie, like, so the whole thing. Super troopers is about a local state highway patrol unit. They're a tight knit unit, again, other than Heffern, it doesn't really matter, but like it's all fucking with each other, right, like the whole movie is them like messing with each other whilst competing against the city police or whatever, I don't know, I don't know who, who is who. So like against the city police or whatever, I don't know, I don't know who was who. So like, it's just, it's fun, right Like all of these guys know how to like push each other's buttons and they're messing with you. Just like I would hang out with these guys. This is ridiculous. And then, similar to what you just said, with Brifness, you put them in extreme situations and watch them act.
Speaker 2:This, none of these people, one, none of these people feel human right. No, and that's that is by choice, for some reason. But I would argue that's a bad choice because, unless you're doing horror parody, which I feel like sometimes this movie skirts and then like comes back and because it's not, it's never like. It's not parody. It's like one of one of those things that people are like, oh, it's a love letter to horror movies. It's not parody, it's like one of those things that people are like, oh, it's a love letter to horror movies, but it's also not really that, because the horror is not very good. So these people who don't feel like humans going through an extreme situation, everything just feels like gobbledygook. You know it's tough. I mean it should have just been, they didn't care.
Speaker 1:You know, they're all into the partying or something, and each time a person dies they're like oh well, you know, you know, or something. You needed to mix up the premise in some way so that it isn't just that standard formula, because you know we didn't watch the real. I know what you did last summer, but in that one they deserved it right, they did something bad.
Speaker 2:Wow, dan Listen. I mean, that's pretty rude. I mean all they did was run over a guy with a car and then dump him in the ocean and leave him for dead. Do they deserve?
Speaker 1:it? I don't think so. They're so pretty, they're all so pretty. I'm going to enjoy each time one of those people dies because they deserve it.
Speaker 2:That is true, that is correct. You get your come up and beautiful people getting their come up and says what a horror movie is all about?
Speaker 1:Yeah, Make all of the characters in this thing just so terrible that we can show it.
Speaker 2:Well, they are terrible.
Speaker 1:Dan, but not in the way you mean.
Speaker 2:They're not terrible people, they're just terrible characters. Oh yeah.
Speaker 1:Well, that's the other thing is, you know? I imagine they sat in a room and they're like well, what are we going to do? We can't just be ourselves, we need to be like these wacky, heightened things. And then they're like, yeah, you can be weird racist this thing and you could be weird racist that thing.
Speaker 2:And then the other characters because they don't have that will just not exist.
Speaker 1:You know, it's like the guy that ends up being the killer, is like the party police or something.
Speaker 2:Police yeah.
Speaker 1:You're like I don't even know who this I police. You're like I don't even know who this guy is. You know it's like all the secondary sort of characters. Anybody could be interchanged with anybody and it wouldn't matter, you know. The only reason you know who's going to get killed in what order is that you're waiting for all the stars to die, right at the end, right, well, yeah, stars, right, or the people who die right at the end, right?
Speaker 2:Well, yeah, Stars right.
Speaker 1:Or the people who are part of the Drinky Lizard.
Speaker 2:But let's take a quick moment here, because we're already a few minutes into the show and I'm sad I haven't mentioned it yet. Bill Paxton.
Speaker 1:Oh, Bill Paxton was good.
Speaker 2:Is a legend and he's so good in this movie I miss him.
Speaker 1:He's great he, you know he's like.
Speaker 2:You know one of the things that makes the the movie decent you know, but here's why, right, he is playing a character playing a character playing. You know the, the jimmy buffett, the burnout music. You know he's playing a character, but he plays the freaking character, he plays the shit out of it. Right, yeah, you believe it. It's a big character, but done well and grounded, and we know it, we know that guy, we believe that guy. There are no other people in this movie where I'm like, hey, that's a real person. How is that possible? Doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 1:Oh, because none of these people are actors.
Speaker 2:They're not actors? Well, I mean, they don't have any acting skills.
Speaker 1:Maybe they gain some later.
Speaker 2:Hold on Time out though, because Super Troopers, they are good. That's why it's so shocking and jarring. When you watch Super Troopers and then Club Dredge, you're like why does in this movie they all feel like humans, and in this movie they all feel like caricatures of people? Oh because they're playing themselves in Super Troopers Probably close.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but you know a little bit more hard-nosed. Yeah, well, they can elevate. Any comedic person can elevate themselves, right? That's what every stand-up comic does, you know, when they step out on stage. You know, we just watched Amsterdam with Chris Rock and I mean, I don't know that Chris Rock can never act, but I know, like the Fargo season with him, I made it one episode and I turned it off because it was not. I didn't think it was good.
Speaker 2:You know, but then you take a lethal weapon for and he's brilliant. So it all makes sense what you're saying makes sense.
Speaker 1:He had lethal weapon for.
Speaker 2:Wow, dan, of course he was. Yeah, yeah, he plays like Danny Glover's daughter's boyfriend, or something like that. He's a cop, sergeant Butters, and he's dating the dot. Yeah, that's a whole dynamic. But he's dating the yeah, there's a whole dynamic, but he's good at it because he's just kind of being himself.
Speaker 1:So he's fine. So when you put him in Amsterdam and you're like be a 30s guy, You're just like, wow, that's Chris Rock Acting like a 30s guy.
Speaker 2:Well, at least he tried to act like a 30s guy, unlike Washington, who just was like you know what? I'm not, I'm not gonna do it, I'm not gonna try, I'm gonna be 2023 so I mean this movie is a little like amsterdam, it's people trying stuff yeah, and a director who's directing himself.
Speaker 2:It doesn't say that the dude, no, you, you are by far the worst of everyone the problem is, if you're directing yourself, you can't be the guy that's like timeout, this character's not working at all. We got to go back to the drawing board Because you're the director of the movie, so you're like this shit's on fire, this shit is working, guys.
Speaker 1:I don't know.
Speaker 2:It's bad.
Speaker 1:And they got so deep into it. They're like well, you know, we're going to lose that scene where he hits tennis balls at the bad guy, like that would do something but he's not good at tennis.
Speaker 2:You know what? Like he's never, he doesn't hit the ball hard. Like if that was, if he was like drilling the guy and it was like actually hurting him a little bit, you know what I mean? Like if he was good at tennis, then I'd be like, okay hold on, do the joke.
Speaker 1:Hold on one second, tony. You mean, you and I could rewrite that scene in one second and make it a funny scene. What the funny scene would be is so our dude is a tennis pro, is he Jamaican or something, I don't know what.
Speaker 2:It's horrible, it's something is the answer.
Speaker 1:He's like some Jamaican island dude. He's the tennis pro. He is chained to a bed, can't get away. Here comes the killer, right. The killer has a big machete, okay. He then reaches over and has his tennis racket and then hits a couple balls at the guy and the guy then just comes in and kills him. We actually don't even see it, but he comes in and kills him. Again, that's something we'll talk about yeah, Okay. Instead, what we have is we start having him be effective. Right, have him be effective. And then the machine.
Speaker 2:Somebody fights back. That's crazy, Dan, that's too much yeah someone is actually effective.
Speaker 1:And then our machete guy has to actually do something funny, like throw the knife or do something you know, pick up a dead body and use it as a shield. He's like, oh no, I got to try and do it. There's a thousand things you can do with that.
Speaker 2:Or what you could do is just have him just kind of weakly hit the ball as if I'm playing tennis because I'm a terrible tennis player, by the way and then he just dies. So the whole point of him playing tennis, being the tennis instructor, leads to nothing.
Speaker 1:It leads to a limp joke that does nothing and I mean you could have set that up earlier. You could have done a whole scene where he has, like this rocket serve and he's getting it past everybody and everybody's like. You know they all leave sweat. Whatever, you could actually do something comedic with this guy as opposed to making him a bad caricature. That's not even good at what he does and we don't even see what he does and there's no reason for what he does except a weird lame setup where he is ineffective. You've got your character where you've made him completely ineffective and they make him obsessed with the blonde girl and I didn't even see any of that in the.
Speaker 1:You know it's like we could have hit that, yeah 10 times in the movie and we never hit it in the movie.
Speaker 2:Well, and and this is I mean. I already disagree with the line of jokes, but it's weird that that information comes out an hour 20 into the movie, like if that's part of his character, if she, if, what? If her thing is she sleeps with everyone on the island except for this guy that's, that's.
Speaker 1:That's kind of got to be a running the running bit right like that can't just come out randomly that's an act. One joke, so weird joke out, and then we get. We got to see how pathetic it is. We have other girls coming on to him, but he's obsessed with her.
Speaker 2:Right, just wants the one yeah. Yeah, and I mean, this movie is not going to spend any real amount of time trying to make us wonder who the killer is, right, no other than the first, the intro, where they like intro everybody as they get slighted and then they give their name and it's like that's why he might be the killer, that's why he might be the killer. After that, there's just they don't care, they're just like eh, we'll just tell you later.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they do kind of a weird thing where you know they sort of slow it down and go and you're like, wait, who who's mad at who? You know it. And you're like who's mad at who? It's like we're not even sure who's mad at who.
Speaker 2:Because we don't know anybody yet we don't know what's going on. It's a weird way to start the movie.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and then when we do find out, it's the guy. He says it's one thing.
Speaker 2:And then they're like, well, that doesn't make sense, and they're like oh no, it's because this other thing, it's something you don't know, it's something you've never heard of throughout the movie.
Speaker 1:you would have no idea it's happening like it's and, more importantly, you know not the tipping the bit, that guy couldn't act that scene yeah, so you know, here's something that's interesting.
Speaker 2:Right, he plays rabbit in super troopers and he is, in my opinion, the weakest of the group in super troopers.
Speaker 1:Oh, it's super troopers Okay.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and I agree Like he he kind of reaped for me other than Jay, because Wolf, I can't even handle what Jay does.
Speaker 2:He's doing a caricature and and once, once you're trapped in that you're never, getting and the other guy that plays one is just about as not as bad, but it's just as much of a character. It's not as bad, but that character needs something other than an accent like that's their thing, is like their whole character is just well, this is a funny accent we could do yes, people will laugh because, that's what they would do live they.
Speaker 1:They'd go from being themselves to doing oh, I'm doing this guy and everyone be like haha, he's doing a guy and then he'd go on and that's fine for a three-minute sketch where they're going to laugh at that, but for a full movie.
Speaker 2:I need to find out who that guy is. Like what makes him funny, because you can do. He's at least better at the accent than Jay is right, yes, like.
Speaker 1:I mean we can agree on that.
Speaker 2:But character depth, they're both zero, right Well.
Speaker 1:Jay has a little more character depth, it just doesn't work.
Speaker 2:Okay, sure. Well, if they would have started earlier it might have been, but the Penelope is still a great joke that.
Speaker 1:I'm enjoying.
Speaker 2:I will never say Penelope again in my entire life. I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 1:That was funny and that's the thing is. Comedy is addition, you know, and that's the thing is. Comedy is its addition. You have to get us into the movie so we like what's happening, so that when we laugh we're like, oh okay, I'm laughing because I like these people Like with me it's like, yeah, that pinnacle was funny, but I didn't write that down as a joke that I laughed at. I probably did sort of laugh at it because it is a good joke and they, they run it through and it's fine, yeah they hit it fine and and you were like yeah, if this was working, you could have killed with the rest right if the rest of the movie is working.
Speaker 2:It just elevates your jokes that are already working 100 um. So steve lemme, who plays juan and heffernan, are in my opinion they're the two strongest of the group, just in general, through everything I've seen them do.
Speaker 1:The drug dealer Dave is pretty good he's. That was, it was sort of an understated character. He didn't have a lot to do, but he can actually.
Speaker 2:So I think that's the difference.
Speaker 1:When he was hurt about the uncle yeah, his about his uncle I was like, oh okay, I buy this guy. I bought him a whole way through. He's one of the leads in Beer Fest.
Speaker 2:Oh, okay, yeah, so he's one of the brothers in Beer Fest and he's also the romantic lead in Super Troopers he's the one with the love story. So I agree, he's just not my favorite. Sure, yeah, steve and Kevin are my two favorites. So Juan was a bit of a letdown Because I was like you can do more than that. You can make that a real character, I'm quite sure. But you know, regardless, penelope, still funny. Yeah, I don't remember what I was saying.
Speaker 1:So let's start the movie. We're at Pleasure Island, costa rica. This is a resort. We're going to start with the first kill and then we're going to go back an hour to when everyone arrives and then sort of for no reason and then sort of set it up. I mean I have, okay, it's fine.
Speaker 2:I mean you could say it's fine, but it's not, because it literally only takes us five minutes to get back to the part where they're getting killed in the background. And I was like so really, you just didn't want to start the movie by introducing the characters, because they understand, you have to have a kill to open a horror movie Like that's just the. That's the structure of a horror movie, but you don't do it in a clever or funny way, you do it in an awkward way and already I'm like nope, you're missing it, you're missing the mark.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so we have Rolo and Stacy. He's got weed, they're kind of making out. Then they're like let's go someplace private. They go there's a cemetery, he kicks over a tombstone and you immediately go like okay, here we have some disrespect. Blah, blah, blah.
Speaker 2:Sure no Desecration.
Speaker 1:They just kicked over a tombstone because that's what they wanted, doesn't matter, it doesn't, and you can't see stuff like that this early in a movie and then have it mean absolutely nothing Mean nothing. Yeah, Absolutely nothing. Then we have like a he gets attacked by a monkey, which they did. They never even did it one other time. They mentioned it one other time, but it was funny-ish. This has to happen many more times.
Speaker 2:Multiple times yes.
Speaker 1:You have to have people at the resort happening. It's got to be a whole thing. It's like the monkey's got to be out of control. It's funny. You've written something funny and then you're just like we've thrown that away, abandon it.
Speaker 2:Abandon it immediately. But I do like the line. Watch the hair asshole. That made me laugh really hard.
Speaker 1:Oh, to the monkey yeah, they go to this mausoleum where there's a sword and then there's like a love totem that has a big penis you're like okay, I guess this oh, another girl shows up, a blonde girl shows up, so he's got two girls. The girls start making out, the door shuts, it turns dark and you're like uh-oh, and then the one girl just opens the door.
Speaker 2:Kind of funny um must have been the wind.
Speaker 1:They strip off, they're nude. You're like, oh okay, there's going to be nudity.
Speaker 2:Cool movie.
Speaker 1:The one girl. Now both the girls are on top of the guy and the one girl starts licking on his ear and then she stops and this was the joke I actually laughed at. He's like what, is it Too waxy? Like okay, that's a joke, that's a real joke.
Speaker 2:It's not, it's weird, it's weird right, a lot of this stuff just turns into weird innuendo.
Speaker 1:that just isn't funny, because we're like yeah, those people would all make the, they would all say those things 100%.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's not. That's what it's never heightened enough for where the these characters like, if you're doing these characters crazy, they have to do things that are crazy, as opposed to like they act crazy but they say relatively normal things, but they're not human. It's obviously. It's a. It's a thin line you have to walk, but they are way too far over the line.
Speaker 1:Yeah and yeah the the rude stuff isn't funny. It's just kind of rude and racy and I'm like it doesn't bother me, I just go like whatever, but it's not funny. Yeah, whatever, talking about her licking his earwax, that's weird, that's very strange.
Speaker 2:It's weird. Yeah, it is Boom boom, boom, boom, boom.
Speaker 1:He gets killed. The girls flee, they split up. The one girl almost goes over a cliff. Then the killer shows up behind her. She reaches out to his knife, cuts her hand on the knife and falls to her death. I was like, okay, that works.
Speaker 2:Yeah, the two best death scenes are how they open the movie.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that was pretty good. And then the other girl almost gets to the pool and then he just kind of kills her.
Speaker 2:Well, he decapitates her and we get to watch the. The camera becomes her head POV. Oh, the thing swings and the camera tumbles and I was like that's a fun, that's a fun guy.
Speaker 1:I didn't notice that that's probably right Tumbles down, and then I didn't notice that Camera tumbles down and then her body lands and then gets dragged off.
Speaker 2:Very fun, very fun. They don't do any more. Creative deaths throughout the entire movie. That's a big problem. That's a big, big problem for me.
Speaker 1:They have the titles. And then we go. One hour earlier A ship arrives. We meet Jenny, the aerobics girl, juan, who is Guy Putnam, who is the tennis guy, he's the diver.
Speaker 2:He's the diving instructor. Oh, he's the diving instructor.
Speaker 1:Our new guy is Lars. He is a masseuse we have. Dave is the drugs guy, sam is the fun police, also the killer. And then there's Carlos, who's just another guy. Sam is the fun police, also the killer. And then there's Carlos, who's just another guy. I really do not believe you can have a Juan and a Carlos in the same movie. Juan Carlos, because I got so confused. Carlos' last name starts with a J, so I was just like wait, are these the same character? At one point I had to rewind and go wait, are these the same character? At one point I had to rewind and go wait, are these the same character?
Speaker 2:I'm like no, they're not the same character. Who are these people?
Speaker 1:You know it's like you don't have another Hispanic guy when you have a guy playing a stereotypical Hispanic guy. Yeah, that just is weird. Then Coconut Pete, played by Bill Paxson, who's the owner and a singer Incredible. We set up no cell phones and no strings attached.
Speaker 2:Okay, great, I love it.
Speaker 1:I'm in. We have this random girl in a pink top who's lost on the road and she gets scared by the aerobics girl who's dressed up as a gorilla. Oh, the pink top girl is Penelope, or Penelope. Penelope. Penelope, who, I wrote, is from Alaska, but she's also from Oral Roberts, which I believe is a religious school.
Speaker 2:Oh, I didn't even understand that joke. Yeah, that's what the joke is.
Speaker 1:Well, I mean, it's an oral anal sort of joke.
Speaker 2:I got that part of the joke but I was like I don't actually know what Oral Roberts is, so I feel like I'm missing part of the joke. But I was like I don't actually know what oral Roberts is, so I'm like I feel like I'm missing part of the joke, which I was if it was a religious I believe.
Speaker 1:I believe oral Roberts is a religious school and so I thought we were going to go down some weird lane with that where she was a crazy religious person. But no, that's not. They kind of were setting up like she's going to her and then at a certain point we find out that the only people being killed are the people that work there, and then we make her one of them, which just also doesn't make any sense. Why would the killer kill her?
Speaker 2:She has nothing to do with the group no, nothing to do with nothing.
Speaker 1:She's a gymnast, she's a gymnast, and then we have nat faxon and this other guy macking on all the girls and then they, they have like a weird role and then like what you would call it, the little sam what's his name with the curly hair? Uh, he's. Oh, his real name is sam.
Speaker 2:Yeah, s-a-m-m yeah, yep, yeah, I don't know what it is.
Speaker 1:I don't know what it is, yeah he also one of the more professional comedians and delivers comic lines better than most of the 100, because I mean, that's what you do when you have funny lines you hire someone funny to say them.
Speaker 2:You know what I mean. Um so my problem with I and you know I like nat nat faxon, right like we. We enjoy he's funny, good deal. Um, when did sex Drive come out, do you remember?
Speaker 1:I don't remember when Sex Drive came out.
Speaker 2:Not until 2008. This movie did come first. Those two characters remind me a lot of the two boneheads from Sex Drive. They're like you can see our dicks from space. The difference is staggering, because Nat Faxon and the redheaded dude who's also in super troopers, by the way, the redheaded so not nat, but the other guy whose name I don't know, he's in super troopers um, they don't actually say anything funny, nope, they just act like weird dudes. There's no jokes, right like that's a. That's a great moment to just write some inappropriate jokes. Not that I'm saying you should write inappropriate jokes, but this is the time to do it, because it's allowed, because these characters are creeps. You've got to make them creeps.
Speaker 1:You've got to make them creeps.
Speaker 2:This is your moment to be weird and creepy and make inappropriate jokes. And they don't, Nope. So those characters are nothing. Why are they in this movie? For scene transitions 100%, but imagine if they were also funny. That would be great.
Speaker 1:It's almost like you could have taken some time to write some lines. They do it. Don't be gay man, because they hug 2004. Or do that, make the one 2004.
Speaker 2:Or do that Right, make the one guy gay or do it there it is Don't just do one little like oh we hugged now Don't be gay Like, if you want to be those homophobic yet gay dudes, you know, bros, do it hard Well then, yeah, just do something, Three beat it.
Speaker 1:Just do something, three beat it. You know, like this is the first time, the second time it gets closer and then the third time they start making out.
Speaker 2:Boom. It's the fourth time they beat their meat. You know you just got to three beat the meat.
Speaker 1:Yeah, thanks, tony. Three beat the meat. Okay, we transition. It's night, we're in the club, we're doing the club thing. Lars meets Coconut Pete and immediately we know that he's not going to be the killer, like we know he's not.
Speaker 2:He absolutely know he's not going to be the killer and yet they try to, they kind of try to do the 180 later and it's like what are you talking about? We know he can't.
Speaker 1:You know they, yeah. At some point they go to his room and he has a you know collage where he's put his face over everybody and we're just like oh, that means he's not him, absolutely yeah because he loves him.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he adores him. Um, he wants to three beat the meat, oh man. So he has to wear this sweater. That's embarrassing, you know, and they have like a little thing. He's like I didn't want to wear it because it's hot. Then he makes him put it on anyways, and you're like, and then we don't talk. Then we don't ever do the sweater again. You know Right Like what's the point. If it's shameful, then he has to be shamed by the sweater.
Speaker 2:And he should be wearing it for the rest of the movie, then he should always be upset that still wearing the sweater. Yeah, I haven't got a chance to change like this. I'm stuck in this fucking sweater pete.
Speaker 1:When am I gonna be able to stop wearing this way? Oh man, yeah, it's gonna happen, but you gotta do this. You know it's like wow, you, that's the whole thing. Is they set up their opportunities in this?
Speaker 2:you know, there's plenty of opportunities for comedy.
Speaker 1:They just choose to never go with any of them don Don't follow through.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, because they're I do like this scene with when Juan comes over to Pete and it's like I got a girl, she, she saw your show, yada, yada, yada, and then he goes up to her and like pretends that he has the eidetic memory or whatever.
Speaker 1:Like that's a great character moment, really, really nice yeah, the guy comes over and says that he was talking to a girl and she saw his concert at xxx. So he pete's able to come over and totally get with the girl by by using this information. I'm like, well, there's another setup, right?
Speaker 2:that that's what this guy does nothing. We never do that again.
Speaker 1:Okay, that's not who he is okay, thatope, who he calls Pinolope. And then I wrote he's not funny, right after he does all that. Yeah. I mean listen, it's tough Tony's like I love him so much.
Speaker 2:I do like him a lot. I do he's not good in the movie, but I like him a lot.
Speaker 1:And then there's, like this big fish tank, and then there's people having sex not just doing it, yeah, they're just straight up doing it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they're having sex in it 100.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they're, they're sex and so they have a sex tank which we fight in at the very end of the movie, but we never, we never deal with the sex tank again. My sex sex tank, kind of a thing that you'd be like we paid for that sex tank, let's work the sex.
Speaker 2:Let's use the sex thing. It's here, no, uh, no, no. But yeah, I mean they just set it up here so that when it happens later you're not super confused. But yeah, you might as well hit it, because it's funny, it's and weird.
Speaker 1:um, the character carlos who I don't know who that is. He's outside dealing with the trash, but you might as well hit it because it's funny and weird. The character Carlos who I don't know who that is. He's outside dealing with the trash. He hears something. It turns out to probably just be the monkey. Then you comes over there holding a knife you is the Asian girl and we sort of do the. You know her name is you and we have one play on words scene about it, maybe after she's dead and that's about it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, because, yeah, I think it's Juan comes in. He's like you and someone are dead.
Speaker 1:Oh, you and Hank are dead, yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah. He's like, wow, I haven't done anything, why are you going to kill me? And he's like, no, you and Hank are dead. Yeah, that's it. Those are scenes that can be very effective if you're very, if you've written something incredibly tight and if you've built up to it a little bit, other than just the fact that you're like well, we named her you, so let's, let's use it once. Yeah, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1:I don't know she leaves, and then Carlos gets killed yeah, yeah, poor. Carlos. Tony has a lot to say about Carlos' death.
Speaker 2:I don't have much to say About any of the deaths other than the first two. Other than so. Here's what I was trying to think of. This is a great time to talk about other Horror comedies right now. I was trying to think of, like, really good Horror comedies and I came up with um shawn of the dead. Great, yeah, very good movie. Uh, freaky. That's a movie that I've enjoyed recently. That's a horror comedy. Love that.
Speaker 2:Yep, and both of those take the horror elements very seriously in their movie. That's how you make a good horror comedy. It needs to be funny and scary. It has to take it seriously, and this doesn't take either of them seriously. And it shows, because they don't do any cool deaths. You have to have huge stakes. Yeah, sure, stakes would be great. Uh, cool deaths would be would be great, just something fun. Be creative. You know, like the tumbling of the camera is nice, but you already used, you did that in the first three minutes and now I have another 90 minutes to watch with zero cool deaths. I don't think so, guys. I don't think so, guys. I don't think so.
Speaker 1:Well, the other good comedy is what is it? James Gunn's Squish. What's that movie called Squirm? Oh, slither, slither, yeah, great movie, great movie, 100% Scary, horrifying creepy Gross. You know there's some seriously like you gotta. You know it's like you're making a movie. Get fucked up, go there. Get fucked up, man, you got nudity. You can do whatever you want.
Speaker 2:You don't care. 100%. This is rated R, we all know, guys. This is fine, you can go for it now.
Speaker 1:So we go spend some time With Pete and this one girl's like oh, they're at the campfire, and she's like he does one song called Ponytails and Cocktails. And then she's like play Margaritaville. This is great and he's all like. Everyone knows it's a problem. She does not realize it's a problem and he's like no, you mean play Pina Colada Berg, and she's all like no Pina Colada. Berg, this is a good. Actually, this is the best joke in the whole.
Speaker 2:Thing.
Speaker 1:It's very good. And then he goes on a tirade where he wrote Pina Colada Berg. Seven and a half years before Margaritaville, before Margaritaville's even on the map.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's great, it's a wonderful bit that you know goes nowhere and just ends.
Speaker 1:Well, his is the one character that actually kind of goes somewhere, because he feels like he's going through something.
Speaker 2:He hates his life, Not hates it. But it didn't go the way he planned. They hit it nicely a couple of times. This is a great time. Then in the cooking scene later, when he's getting mad at the chefs, he's like what's the secret ingredient to my coconut paella Coconut? I know it's very good. He's great. He's wonderful and then he just dies off screen and it just pisses me off.
Speaker 1:They did kill him off screen, didn't they?
Speaker 2:Yep, he just falls into the frame. You're like, well, he's been dead for a while. Nope, sorry.
Speaker 1:That's your best character. I need to see him die. Then we do the machete, machete mania story about machete this is my favorite part of the movie phil oh, that's your favorite part. Well, why are you talking?
Speaker 2:about my favorite part. Well, they're just. They're telling the local ghost legend about the, the guy who I don't even remember exactly the story he got you know sad and mad and maybe rejected, so he cut off his own penis with a machete.
Speaker 1:He kills a bunch of people, then cuts off his own penis.
Speaker 2:Then cuts off his penis and then you can hear him wandering around the jungle saying where's my penis? Which is great. And then Jay stands up with his pants down and his dingleberries tucked under. He's like and that boy was me, which is fine, which is like a funny joke, like I giggled. But then Juan stands up. Who's been telling the story? Was it Juan? No, it was either.
Speaker 1:Sam or Dave the drug dealer, or the I think it was the drug dealer. It was the drug dealer. It's the drug dealer. Yes.
Speaker 2:So then after everyone leaves, he stands up and he had also tucked because that's his payoff and he goes. You're such an asshole. Such an asshole Because he stole the tuck bit and I thought that was very funny. When they're both standing there tucked under, it's great.
Speaker 1:That's a bit. These are two guys that know each other. Yeah, the guy fucked with the other guy. Boom, this is what we're building on. No, we do not build them. No, no, no building. Next day we do the Pina Colada Berg song to a montage of all the activities diving, tennis, aerobics, pool, volleyball. Then we have the hedge maze Pac-Man game, which I really liked. Didn't make any sense.
Speaker 2:It doesn't make any sense, but I want it to because it looks really fun.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's really funny. We should have set it up a little bit, but we don't. So people are dressing as bananas and pears. Some guys dress as a pear. We don't know who that is Juan's having sex in one of the rooms, dressed as a pair.
Speaker 2:We don't know who that is Juan's having sex in one of the rooms dressed as a pretzel. Are there pretzels in Pac-Man? Yeah, there are. Okay, it's been a minute since I've played OG Pac-Man.
Speaker 1:And I was like why is the pretzel?
Speaker 2:there with all the fruits there.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it goes through a whole cycle where it's like banana, pear, apple, pretzel, yeah, pretzels absolutely won.
Speaker 2:That game doesn't make any sense. I love it.
Speaker 1:The killer then puts on the pineapple, stalks the pear and kills the pear. Who's like some other character named Harry or something?
Speaker 2:Who we don't know.
Speaker 1:Who's on the board, but we have barely met. Yeah, jenny goes to Lars' room. He's practicing traditional Chinese sword. Uh, then we. He's able to just touch her on the lip to have her orgasms, or that's one of them. He has another one which I thought was kind of funny Pokes a guy somewhere and he just starts peeing, Go peeing.
Speaker 2:Yeah, turtle, I was like okay.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Um, my problem with the. What are the? What it was like, the heaven center?
Speaker 1:I can't remember exactly what it's called heaven, something, yeah heaven something is.
Speaker 2:When he does it, he like aggressively moves her lip over, and it's very weird and off-putting and I liked that. Yeah, when she does it back to him in the callback at the end of the movie, she basically just like shushes him, like she's gently touching. I want to see her like dig into his face and make it weird. Yeah, you know what I mean? Yeah, because because, honestly, like, that move needs to be weird. Yeah, it needs to be a little like what the fuck is happening. Oh, and now she's orgasmic. That's weird. And this is not weird, this is, this is very normal. So I'm I think that they missed an opportunity there to make it a little, a little weird yeah, I mean that's actually.
Speaker 1:She does that. Later he does something else to the one girl and then he does the pm with it. But you know, it's a sort of interesting setup and they, they do follow through with this and you know, know, but, like you say, go further. You know, like the one the one thing they do with it. Where he can become. He turns from fat to thin. It's like really super weird but it does.
Speaker 2:That does lead to one of my favorite jokes in the movie oh there it is which is when he slides on, he makes himself thin, slides under, and she looks at him. She's like why don't you just do that all the time?
Speaker 1:And he goes is that a fat joke, see, but that doesn't make sense. It's funny, but it doesn't make any sense, but it's funny. And then boom, here comes Carlos. He crashes into the building. So somehow the bad guy has got him up on a parachute and then parachuted him. Parents paraglided him into a building, and then that that was the point at which we realized things are going on, because they also find the dead pair and then they write naughty cliff on there. There's this whole naughty thing.
Speaker 2:that doesn't make any sense it's a song. It's one of Pete's coconut Pete's songs.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so okay, yeah, so okay, and then, so. Then we all get together to decide what to do. Pete wants to keep it quiet. They look at the activity board and we can see people's names crossed out, so we know who's dead and who's still alive. We also find out that there's no more boat, there's no phone, no radio Boom.
Speaker 2:But we also know I do feel like we need to hit that board a few more times, you know, to keep tally of who's dying.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's just like a setup, so that we know that the first three characters died because their bodies are missing, yeah, and so they're like, oh okay, this is all going down, but it's they're only going to be killing employees for some unknown reason. Yeah, except a couple other people that they sort of randomly kill. I mean, you know penalope, penalope, going after penalope, so now they're trying to hank who's the head of security. He's going to try and find the guy because he's a badass and when he gets killed he's not a badass and it doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 2:He doesn't do anything. Doesn't do absolutely anything. He stands there and lets himself get cut in the throat Real dumb.
Speaker 1:Real dumb. So boom, here we go. We're going to have a party and try and look at everybody to figure out who's doing it. We're going to have a party and try and look at everybody to figure out who's doing it. Then Lars and Jenny are going to search the rooms. She finds a dildo.
Speaker 2:Then, I don't know, penelope finds they don't even really make a joke out of it. Nope, that's weird, that's weird. Oh, look a dildo.
Speaker 1:You're like yeah.
Speaker 2:That's not a joke. Just holding a dildo? Not a joke. Maybe in 2004. I don't think so, I still don't think so. I don't know, it's not a joke now?
Speaker 1:Nope, Sure isn't. It did survive the test of time. Oh my God, this movie. There's a lot more things. So Penelope's continuing to hit on Juan. They're going to go out there. She's very sexually aggressive towards him and he runs away from her. Why does he run away from her when she's sexually aggressive towards him? I don't know.
Speaker 2:Because that's not really the character we've seen so far, which is the guy who's like, trying to have sex with all of the tourists.
Speaker 1:And yeah, and having sex with them, yeah, and yeah he's doing it.
Speaker 2:He's not just trying, he's doing it so far, but this one's, I guess, too forward. I don't know.
Speaker 1:I don't know, the search yields that. The only thing interesting in the search is that the guy in 14 had a wooden Bible.
Speaker 2:Yeah, sure.
Speaker 1:I don't know what that means. That's funny. I don't know what it means either, but they said it, so obviously it's a joke that we don't know what it means either, but they said it, so obviously it's a joke that we don't understand. So now we're out on the beach. You is out there with Hank. Here comes the killer. The killer's coming towards him. Hank's like I got this metal bar, just walking very slowly. I've got a metal bar that I'm going to hit you with. The killer just slices his throat.
Speaker 1:The metal bar never swung towards this guy at all.
Speaker 2:Nope, not even a little bit.
Speaker 1:Yu runs away, gets in a golf cart. The golf cart goes about one mile an hour and the guy's like just walking beside him, just walks in and that's a good joke, but that's a parody joke.
Speaker 2:Correct, I agree with you, and that's why, every once in a while, this movie leans too far. I mean, listen, they don't know the tone of the movie they want.
Speaker 1:I think that's pretty clear by now. Here we have this weird scene where Jenny's watching the tape of her aerobics show, because she has an aerobics show now and then she hears something outside, and so she tries to lock the door, but can't lock the door, and then we're just cut to the next day.
Speaker 2:Well, because you have to know that the lock doesn't work in her room, because later they have to say, oh, the lock doesn't work, or something like that.
Speaker 1:Oh, so we have to have a whole scene that sets up that the lock in her room doesn't work there, it is yeah, so the next day it just gets really weird, because everyone's just like acting like everything's normal. No, yeah, nothing's going on, nobody's dying yeah, every time we transition to a new day, everybody's just like, well, I guess we're back at work and nothing bad could happen during the day as long, and then they're surprised again when something bad happens.
Speaker 2:It's very strange. These people have very short memories.
Speaker 1:They figure out that the lyrics of one of the songs sort of has something to do with all of this. They find dead Hank and you, then it's the fashion show, and now they're starting to blame Lars. So we need to do a new plot thing, and the new plot thing is to say that lars did it, because it all began when he got there. Okay, but we already know it's not him we absolutely know it's not him, so that doesn't work right like this isn't a misdirection at all.
Speaker 1:It's just a waste of time for the audience so lars and putnam go looking for the boats, because all the boats are missing, um, and walk off down there. Jenny kisses, lars, goodbye. Uh, pete's making his pie. This weird scene where pete's making his pie and the secret ingredient and then we have two other workers that are like the cooks that we don't that, we don't know, and they don't come back, they don't get murdered like I don't know. I don't know, you can't introduce other characters that work in this place.
Speaker 2:If the only people getting killed in this movie are people that work in this place, very strange but he does make me laugh in this scene when he's when he's screaming and throwing stuff and he's like, do you think who does he say eddie money is like you think eddie money has to deal with their stuff, or whoever he says, it's funny so they think penelope might kill her.
Speaker 1:So they're gonna have juan have sex with her and then they're gonna sit in the closet. So they sit in the closet while two of them have sex and she does gymnastics and they have sex. It's cool. It's a cool scene. It's a sex scene. So you got a sex scene in your movie.
Speaker 2:It's a good one. It's pretty cool.
Speaker 1:I mean she's attractive and he's laying there and she's on top of him. There it is and he's laying there. I'm sure he makes a couple is and he's laying there. I'm sure he makes a couple things Maya condios or something that's good. Then we have Lars and Putnam, who aren't really searching for the boat. They're just sitting out there in a fire, yep, and they argue about Jenny, and then Putnam puts a bag on his hair and that was supposed to scare us that he was going to do something.
Speaker 2:Yeah, like smother him with the bag or something, I don't know.
Speaker 1:They look in Lars's room, they find the sword and the shrine to coconut Pete. And then Lars comes back. Oh no, lars is gone. Putnam flees.
Speaker 2:Well, putnamnam has this dream. Oh no, this is the dream, yeah, which is? This whole scene is super weird and I don't understand.
Speaker 1:Well, we just do a dream scene so that we can add some tension. You know like, oh, this is the thing that he's thinking might happen and it's not. And then we're like why did this is a thing that he's thinking might happen and it's not? And then we're like why did you just wait? Why anyone waste your time with a dream scene?
Speaker 2:Well, yeah, and then it gets even weirder because then he takes off the killer mask and it's putting them again, so he's like holding himself down and he's like kind of sweet talking himself or something. It was really weird, Dan. It was really weird. That's all I got. It's not funny and it's really weird and I don't know why it's in the movie.
Speaker 1:And the next morning Lars comes back. He said he found the boat but the propeller was broken and that Putnam ran off into the forest. Why would he do that, don't know. Doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 2:Don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 1:They lock up Lars because they're like oh, there's only one more night, so he's set up. We only have to survive one more night of this movie and it will be over. So they lock up Lars in a room that has a big window that he can just crawl out easily well, but they say he's too fat to crawl out of the window.
Speaker 2:No, he's not, not physically with how big the window actually is, but you have to buy into it. What are?
Speaker 1:you talking about.
Speaker 2:If they tell you he can't crawl out of it, you are supposed to believe them that he can't crawl out of it. That's how movies work, dan.
Speaker 1:They tell you the rules and then you've got to follow the rules, but if your eyes show you that there's a big window that he can easily crawl out of, you're like I don't understand any of this. It's night, jenny's in the pool, everyone leaves. Then there's someone in the pool, it's Sam the nerd guy. And then here comes the bad guy. He throws a TV in there and electrocutes.
Speaker 2:Sam, which I did not remember this happening. But remember that. What's that terrible. It follows that piece of shit movie.
Speaker 1:That's how that movie ends to think about Okay, tony, let's, let's, let's, let's slow this all down. We've talked about this movie a bunch and gone through a bunch of the plot. The plot's terrible. It's horrible. It makes us want to die Just even talking about it again. Great. Let's think about it Follows.
Speaker 2:That movie was great.
Speaker 1:That movie looked great.
Speaker 2:No, that movie looked great that movie was Looked great, looked great. Looked great. No, let me tell you why it didn't look great, because they are in a car. They're in a car, dan, and there's a source of light coming from the heavens. Who cares? There is no light anywhere. It is so pretentious and so stupid. Yeah, I mean, it looks great, it looked lovely.
Speaker 1:But this movie looks terrible. They put a weird light in there, but it looks cool.
Speaker 2:They put a weird light. It looks fine, but when you think about it you're like where's the light coming from? This is stupid.
Speaker 1:The thing about a good movie like it Follows, which was a great movie.
Speaker 2:It Follows is trash cinema.
Speaker 1:Trash. Did I like that movie when we talked about it? I probably did.
Speaker 2:I don't remember. I remember I liked the weird sex scene where his mom is tackling him naked. That's all I really remember.
Speaker 1:Tony likes thinking about going home and a guy having sex with his mom. He thinks that's pretty sexy. He's having sex with his mom, that is not what is sexy about it.
Speaker 2:And she was old, old and goopy. Sure, she's a mature woman, very beautiful.
Speaker 1:I think she had some slime on her too, didn't she? Sure, that's okay.
Speaker 2:Okay, you can't drool a little bit?
Speaker 1:Dan Jeez Louise this guy that was like alien slime shit going on there, not good. And Louise, this guy, that was not good. That was like alien slime shit going on there, not good. But yeah, at the end of that one that's their big plan to kill the monster is to get it in the pool and then throw the TV in.
Speaker 2:Yeah, all pretty dumb, both equally dumb movies.
Speaker 1:I think we can all agree on that. So once again, we do a thing and we kill Sam the nerd. And you know yeah, okay. So now the power's out. So they're going to try to find Pete because he has the key to the generator. Juan appears, dave appears, dave finds a letter that talks about Juan being in prison. And they're all like what did you do? What did you do? And we find out oh, now we find out that Pete is dead. Pete's body crashes in through the window.
Speaker 1:And we find out that Juan was in jail for having sex with a goat, but he did use a condom. Tell me how long you laughed when they said that he was in jail for having sex with a goat.
Speaker 2:I'm still laughing, Dan.
Speaker 1:How about that?
Speaker 2:Because now I'm just trying to make this movie sound better than it Follows. This is your fault.
Speaker 1:It Follows Much better movie. I laughed zero times.
Speaker 2:Because that's not a good joke, that's just dumb.
Speaker 1:That's just real dumb. Figure something out, come on. What are you doing here? Why can't you get something fun? That's my real dumb. That's just dumb. Figure something out, come on. What are you doing here? Why can't you get something fun? That's my Biden impression. Come on, guys, what's going on here? Trying to run a country?
Speaker 2:That's good. That was really good, goat sex jokes. Goat sex jokes.
Speaker 1:Okay, Tony, there you go. Here's your first assignment as a member of Tepid Lizard Write. A better thing that he went to jail for.
Speaker 2:And he's. I mean we think he's from Mexico or something, right, yeah, that's fine.
Speaker 1:Some Latin American company Lizard. He had sex with a lizard. Look at that.
Speaker 2:He had sex with a lizard. He had sex with a lizard.
Speaker 1:See you're laughing because it's stupid. He's like I had sex with a Komodo dragon A.
Speaker 2:Komodo dragon. Look at that. That's great, that's weird, that's gross.
Speaker 1:Wait what? You had sex with a Komodo dragon.
Speaker 2:And then you can bring it back later, exactly. Okay, tell me Seriously, where did you bring it back later? Exactly like how did okay tell seriously, where do you put it?
Speaker 1:tell me, just tell me where you put it. How did you know? Was it a female komodo dragon? How did?
Speaker 2:you know, see there's a bunch of jokes there.
Speaker 1:Look at that a bunch of a goat you're just like and it's and it's still very stupid.
Speaker 2:It's not a good joke.
Speaker 1:It's very stupid, it's rude and weird and you're just like what, what a komodo dragon. I don't, I don't want to think about that, I don't understand, but I have to okay there it is um, everyone, oh. And then the one guy blames, uh, blames says, says dave's. The one guy blames says Dave's the one who did it because his parents got killed. Did his parents get killed because of?
Speaker 2:They were trampled to death at a Coconut Pete concert.
Speaker 1:And then we find out that he's like no, no, no, I love Coconut Pete. He just signed over the thing he was going to leave. What was the whole thing?
Speaker 2:And they were going to turn it into a bombing See just signed over the thing he was going to leave.
Speaker 1:Yes, what was the whole thing? And they were going to turn it into a bombing See, that's the thing they say some stuff like this that you're like this works, and if I was liking this movie, I would have laughed at this.
Speaker 2:Sure, but you're not, I gather.
Speaker 1:Or if they'd have linked it. You know that's the other thing is, I think, a lot of the comedy. They just throw it away.
Speaker 2:They're like we're going to do this thing, and then we're getting on to the next thing as fast as possible.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so instead he's given it to him because he's going on tour with Eddie Money and the drummer from someplace Something.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't remember exactly.
Speaker 1:It's a good little joke. So he's like I don't remember exactly Good little joke. So he's like I'm not the guy. Lars arrives and loses it. I don't know what that was about.
Speaker 2:Why did he lose it? Because Pete's dead. So he like breaks down crying, drops to his knees, yeah.
Speaker 1:Boom, boom, boom. So they're set up that they're all going to stay in one room. You're like, okay, here we are, we're going to do the one room thing. And this is going to be interesting. Immediately we are walking in the forest and everyone goes in their own directions and they all disperse.
Speaker 1:Come on, guys, come on. You just wrote a line that something is going to happen. It's interesting. I was watching the thing. You know, the South park guys just did their thing, where they blow up Trump and did all their things. It, you know, the stuff is just hilariously funny and all the right people are getting all bent out of shape.
Speaker 1:And then somebody was talking about comedy and they were like yeah, the the South park guys do a whole thing where they're like, don Like, yeah, the South Park guys do a whole thing where they're like, don't do yes. And I think they said don't do yes, and which is not exactly what they're saying they want, but and therefore right, yes, yes and just means don't deny what has come before.
Speaker 2:That's all, yes, and means come before.
Speaker 1:That's all yes, and means yes, and means just continue to add more information that focuses on what it is that the situation is, and I can tell you, sure as hell, in every goddamn South Park, and that's yes, and is for a scene. It's not for a movie, it's for a scene, and every scene is built on, yes, and when you're not denying the reality of the scene, and you're just building the scene until it for a scene. Right, and every scene is built on yes, and where you're not denying the reality of the scene, and you're just building the scene until it's a scene. And then you figure out a way to get out. But they say but therefore, which is the way you build a movie which helps you string together all these scenes into making sense.
Speaker 2:Because the point is this and instead of and then this happens, because that is technically can be separate. Their whole point is this happens. Therefore, directly because this happened, this next scene has to happen, and that's how you connect scenes.
Speaker 1:Yeah, improv is not, and then that is not what, actually, they will yell at you if you're just like and thenning away because you're getting away from the central premise which is where you want to sit. You want to sit in that, you want to stay in that room, you want to keep doing that space work and you want to understand what the situation is and you don't want to deny it. I'm making pasta. No, you're not. You're making a carburetor. Okay, you've destroyed the scene.
Speaker 2:Carbonara. I told you ten times it's carbonara.
Speaker 1:And I'm making carbonara sauce. That's what it is. I'm making pasta and I'm making carbonara sauce and we're going to throw them together and see what happens with our relationship.
Speaker 2:It's going to be good, but this movie, being in love on the horizon this movie is and then, and, and then, and then, and then and then yeah, it is unfortunately.
Speaker 1:So they just all split up. Power comes back on, sort of Dave goes back and starts DJing alone in his room and doing drugs.
Speaker 2:So Dave has hooked himself up to the generator the backup Jenny without telling him. So he has power and he's the only one with power.
Speaker 1:I missed that. I did not hear that. Yeah, I mean that's it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he says that when he opens his door he's like, well, I know where the generator is, and then turns on the power in his room.
Speaker 1:It's not really a joke.
Speaker 2:It's just like explaining why he has power.
Speaker 1:So they can do the dj head spinning joke. Got it? Um. So boom, he's got power. Uh, lars and jenny, uh, then he gets killed. Wait, do we even see him get killed?
Speaker 2:no, because you don't. You just you pretty much don't see people get killed, you just see the aftermath. It's really smart, it's a great way to save money and uninteresting movies, you know, it's really good and that's the other thing is does anybody even have a line like when they're getting killed? Uh, putnam said something, didn't he? Because, like we're watching them hide in the bathroom and he's kind of talking, we haven't killed him yet no, I know, but I'm just okay.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you asked a question. I'm trying to answer to the best of my ability, because other than that, no, I don't. I don't believe, so yeah other than um, the badass being like well, I'm a badass, so I'm gonna badass you, and then he gets cut and dies immediately. So he says other than that, no that he then cannot follow up or back up at all. Yeah, you know that's correct.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you know it's like he has to say I'm a badass and he's gotta swing back and he's all like, oh no, my minor league shoulder injury complaint, you know, whatever you gotta do something you gotta. This is, this is your chance to have, or you can just make him stand there, this is your chance to have, or you can just make him stand there, stand there and take it like a man, jay's like I don't want to do a lot of setups when I'm directing this, just stand there and die, don't move.
Speaker 2:We already lit you perfectly For the beach. You can't move at all.
Speaker 1:Okay, so boom, Dave is dead. His head is on the thing going around. Yeah, on the thing going around. Yeah, on the turn on the you know record player. Yeah.
Speaker 2:We already did a beheading, though, so like think of something new guys.
Speaker 1:Okay, so they're in the bedroom. Jenny hides under the bed. Lard uses magic to shrink his belly. He hides under the bed. Somebody walks in. They see shoes First of all. Not that I pay any attention, but most people know what other people's shoes are. You would know who it is from their shoes.
Speaker 2:I assume you would know Putnam's shoes for sure. He's not wearing similar shoes to anyone else on this island.
Speaker 1:Let's be real, you would have spent enough time with him, you would know. He finds handcuffs under there. He handcuffs his ankle to the thing, to the bed. Boom, they come out. They find out it's putnam. He's not the bad guy, the bad guy's coming. They go and then hide in a restroom, even though the bad guy would have seen them yep 100 hide in a bedroom bathroom. Hide in the bathroom. Putnam hits balls at him and fails Miserably.
Speaker 2:Barely hits him, barely hits him with the balls.
Speaker 1:Um Boom, boom boom.
Speaker 2:There's one almost good joke. Uh, putnam hits him in the balls. The bad guy hits him right in the genitalia and there's like a ding sound. And he's like, I knew it, machete fill.
Speaker 1:Oh, that's what it meant. Yeah, because he cut off his own penis. So it's metal now.
Speaker 2:I mean I Listen Dan. All I know is what happens in the movie. I don't understand it Because I was like listen, dan. All I know is what happens in the movie. I don't understand it.
Speaker 1:Because I was like oh, he's wearing armor of some sort.
Speaker 2:Like a nut cup or something.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and I thought that maybe would point us towards who really did it, but it does not. It doesn't no, he does throw the blade kills him, I guess.
Speaker 2:And then they throw a bloody towel over the bathroom yeah thanks, I guess he toweled off afterwards yeah, he picked up the towel and then wiped himself off and then threw it over and it got on his face, I guess everybody's now back in the club area.
Speaker 1:They're all partying. Then, boom, they're getting blood in their drinks and they turn on the lights and all the bodies are hung everywhere in this room.
Speaker 2:In the rafters. Yeah, okay, everyone freaks out.
Speaker 1:Our characters find Penelope Juan is covered in blood. And then they sort of see Sam being killed. And so then you're like, well, of course it's Sam, because we sort of see Sam being killed. And so then you're like well, of course it's Sam, because we sort of see him being killed. That was pretty thing. They go to the mud bath and then he's checking the mud baths by stabbing them. Boom, boom, boom. They pull Sam out. Sam is dead in the mud bath, I think. Then he stabs into the last one and he's all like or the massage guy is all like Run, I think he says Something like that, yeah.
Speaker 1:And then boom, it turns out that Sam is still alive Because he can hold his breath For a certain amount of time, for an unknowable reason, and he's got. He's got Lars in the headlock With the knife.
Speaker 2:Yeah, alright, I say kill him. Kill Lars in the headlock with the knife. Yeah, all right, I say kill him, kill Lars.
Speaker 1:Yeah, just slice his throat right now, but he's the hero. Let me see it. He's the hero of the movie.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I'm not that crazy about him, oh really.
Speaker 1:He uses his massage voodoo on the guy which sort of stops him, but sort of doesn't stop him.
Speaker 2:He said that he's orgasming. Oh okay, you must have missed that. He says I can make him orgasm for another couple minutes. You guys run to safety, something like that. Why don't they just kill him? Great, great question. He's basically paralyzed right from extreme pleasure, stick his weapon in him. Do anything.
Speaker 1:Literally do anything would be great. Is this when he explains himself? No, they go somewhere else and he explains himself. Where did they go explain? Maybe the office?
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's when he comes. So they go back to the main club and then he's drowning Penelope in the sex water and then they break the glass and he comes in and then he gives his speech once they all get up, I think.
Speaker 1:No, that happens Right. No, we do the explanation now.
Speaker 2:Oh, all right, Somehow we do the explanation somewhere now and we find out.
Speaker 1:First we set it up that he killed Roll because he didn't give him any of the grass and they're all like. But that's not what happened really, is it? And he's like no. He tells that story, then he goes oh wait, no, that's not. It actually it's this, and the actually is this is that he was not gonna get the island.
Speaker 2:I don't know that he'd ever promised him the island. Why would that have ever happened? He's the fun police. That's not even like an important job.
Speaker 1:It's very strange doesn't make any sense. And then they run away. And then they get to the thing and they're in the club area he's drowning, penelope. They go and break the tank and then, as Sam gets up, they kill Sam by sticking him right through the middle with a gigantic knife, the machete, and they're all like we've done it. And he says the fun is done. They go outside. It's now daylight, there's bacchanalia, everyone's just having sex outside. It's now daylight, there's bacchanalia, everyone's just having sex, and it's crazy. And then, but sam's alive, so they're gonna lose him in the jungle. And then they get to the thing and they have to cliff dive and then the what's his name? Juan, says but you have to make sure to clench your cheeks or the water will go up your butthole and explode your intestines. So they all jump. They all do that. I suppose I think penelope says your butthole and explode your intestines. So they all jump. They all do that. I suppose I think Penelope says my butthole hurts or something.
Speaker 2:The blonde girl says it. She comes up out of the water and she goes oh my asshole. Which is funny, but we were just told she would die, so she probably should have exploded when she hit the water. And then they all come up. She's in pieces and he's like should have clenched the asshole. You know something?
Speaker 1:Or Penelope should have done.
Speaker 2:Should have blown up Penelope.
Speaker 1:And then the killer jumps in yeah, oh, they look down. They see the boat is down there. The other boat, yeah, so they've got to go get the propeller because you know they just slide right off with your hands. You just unhand them.
Speaker 2:Yeah, propellers are very easy to take on and off.
Speaker 1:They're very unsafe, so they make the jump, they retrieve the prop and then boom, they swim to the other boat. Then Juan appears and we find out that he's been cut. And then he's all like to Penelope. He's like before I go, I just want a kiss. And she's like, okay, I can give you a kiss. And then he's like, no, I want to see you two girls kiss. I was like that's funny, that's a good joke, that's a good joke. And if that was the character the whole time, it could have been really funny, maybe the whole thing. He doesn't want to have just one girl, he has to have two girls.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he needs multiple partners. Great Good for you, bud.
Speaker 1:Sam attacks. They rope him, he gets roped to the thing and they drive a boat around. So he gets wrapped, wrapped, wrapped and he still tries to grab them and then they do it again and he breaks in half and then he still attacks them again. I thought that was funny, that he was attacking them without his legs.
Speaker 2:This is, like my favorite thing of the movie. This is this scene. But the rest of your kills need to fall in line with this. Yes, because this is funny but also intense, because you're like this guy's getting sawed in half. This is crazy and it's fun. And then he jumps out of the water like Jason, but he's only half a body. Then they pick him up but he spins him around and throws him into the ocean. It's funny and messed up. It's where everything needs to be. This scene is like the level you need to funny and messed up, it's where everything needs to be. This scene is like the level you need to start at.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and you know, yeah, you could have said something at a certain point. He'd just be like I took a serum or something, whatever Magic, whatever it is.
Speaker 2:Sure he's unstoppable.
Speaker 1:Do something, Because you can do that. It's a stupid horror movie, right yeah?
Speaker 2:there's no real rules in this movie.
Speaker 1:When he was stabbed in the club. No human being could continue. Nope, so I don't know, absolutely not. So boom, penelope, jenny and Lars survive. Lars and Jenny kiss. I think they already kissed, though, didn't they?
Speaker 2:Yeah, I mean they kissed. She kissed him like goodbye earlier. I know that I don't know. Yeah, that's there you go. That's it. What a movie. That's it, tony.
Speaker 1:What a movie I think we talked about it at the top Slasher very hard, very hard genre to make good, make good yeah, very hard, it's true, because it's not really a, it's not really a plot characters you know they're just running away does a great job.
Speaker 2:Freaky is a slasher and it does a wonderful job that they probably sit on a couple of characters right I mean, they have real characters. You know, like that's, and the whole point is, two of your characters swap places and that only works if they have characters, because then when they're in each other's bodies, it's funny to watch them be the other person's character. That's like the basis of so, like your entire plot hinges on the fact that you've made characters.
Speaker 1:You know, I find in movies, the plot hinges on the fact that you've made characters. You know, I find in movies the plot hinges on making characters. Can't wait to hear this Right? Isn't that how movies work?
Speaker 2:I think that's fair to say, yeah, yeah, that sounds like good, just a lot of things happened.
Speaker 1:A lot of jokes went nowhere. Yeah, a lot of time wasted of killing too many. It's just like.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's just like yeah.
Speaker 1:It's like an Agatha Christie murder mystery that you're trying to do in an hour 40 or hour 50. What do we have, man? What was this thing? It was an hour 43. That's a tight amount of time.
Speaker 2:Yeah. Also when it takes me two attempts to watch your movie and it's only an hour 43. That's not a good time. How did it take you? Two attempts? I stopped it, I started it last night and I was like I gotta take a break.
Speaker 1:Wow, your limpid lizard Just didn't cut it. For you, limpid lizard, I've got two broken legs. Well, we've Fix fixed your stupid movie 21 years too late.
Speaker 2:It is. It was a long time ago, yeah. Anything else you want to Are you going to watch Super Troopers?
Speaker 1:I don't think so.
Speaker 2:This movie was terrible. I'll probably watch Beer Fest again. Yeah, I'll probably watch. Beer Fest again too. Let I'll probably watch Beer Fest again too.
Speaker 1:Let's be honest, I also need to see the new one, Quasi. Yeah, go watch, quasi it's on Hulu, if anybody cares. Maybe don't go watch Quasi and we'll do it on this show because it's probably terrible.
Speaker 2:You're probably right about that.
Speaker 1:I was going to pick for next week. I was going to pick the Dukes of Hazzard movie because jay went on to direct that.
Speaker 2:Huh, because that movie's not good. I mean, it doesn't sound like it's as bad as this one, but johnny knoxville right, johnny knoxville and sean william scott william scott, yeah, who I love? I love him, he's great.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that movie wasn't very good read the reviews, which is basically it's a lot of car chases there. It is, yeah, sure so.
Speaker 2:You don't want to critique car chases. Is that what you're?
Speaker 1:saying Dan Come on. Maybe in another year when we run out of other movies, you know.
Speaker 2:Okay, all right, we'll save it.
Speaker 1:I have to admit I had to look around to find a good bad movie because I was just like it just feels like we've we've sort of shifted into this place where the same mistakes are just being. You know, it's just like absolutely no parable for being human, isn't it, dan?
Speaker 2:I mean, like that's what we do, we all. We make the same mistakes over and over history repeats itself.
Speaker 1:more I want more novel mistakes, like you know, like what was the Halle Berry movie where she's like has to make friends with the robot in her brain. You know, it's just like what is happening. You know, I want, like, a central conceit that's a little tighter right.
Speaker 2:Like this movie.
Speaker 1:There wasn't even a central conceit.
Speaker 2:Well, I mean, you're right about that, that is true. I don't think that's always the case, but for this one specifically, yeah, that was definitely a problem.
Speaker 1:You know, it's like I guess I'm tired of juggling 1,000 characters, that I'm just like does anybody really mean anything? And we're just going from like point A to point B, you know just like with all these stupid people that I don't want to spend any time with. It's like you're giving me Anya Taylor-Joy and Rami Malek married and I just want to spend no time with these people.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's an issue.
Speaker 1:You know it's like I go and you know the Queen's Gambit like I'll start watching that. And I did this, you know, maybe six months ago, and I did this, you know, maybe six months ago, and it's like, okay, now I have to watch the entire thing because there's so much.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I got to go.
Speaker 1:There's so much. I just want to spend time with these fucked up, and they're not. These are not characters that you're like.
Speaker 2:I wish I had their lives.
Speaker 1:These are fucked up characters that are going through stuff. I want to be going through stuff with you. I don't want to be bored by you being murdered.
Speaker 2:It's like oh, you're murdered. You just made me choke on my water.
Speaker 1:Oh, okay, I don't know why. Ooh Tony, how'd he die? It was me, it was the public. Death by podcast. Oh well, somebody had to die by a podcast.
Speaker 2:It's the best way to go out.
Speaker 1:I'm ready. Take me, lord. They'll make podcasts, podcast about our podcast, about the death of the podcast and I'm gonna go to jail. Ah, what a tragedy. I'll have time to work on my projects, though if they there, you go lots of time.
Speaker 2:You're right, what was?
Speaker 1:I watching where they wouldn't give the guy a piece of paper. Oh, I was watching the black. I finished up the black mirror, watched like three episodes of the black mirror, finished that up. I just need a piece of paper. Don't give him a piece of paper.
Speaker 2:Don't give him a piece of paper Did he get his?
Speaker 1:paper. Yeah, that was a mistake, shouldn't have given him a piece of paper. Oh boy, he did like a QR code that ended the world.
Speaker 2:Oh wow, yeah, that's bad. That's a bad piece of paper. I saw that coming.
Speaker 1:You. Okay, tony, you want a towel.
Speaker 2:Get a towel off you, I'm all right, I got tears running down my face. I can't breathe, it's fine.
Speaker 1:Same amount of tears you shed when Hulk Hogan died Whew.
Speaker 2:Ugh, nobody cared about that guy dying Hulkamania.
Speaker 1:Holy shit. It's like Ozzy Osbourne dies and everybody's like we've lost the greatest man on the planet. Hulk Hogan dies. Everybody's like, yeah, well, well, had to happen, I guess.
Speaker 2:Well, the Rock did a tribute to him on one of the wrestling shows.
Speaker 1:So there you go, remember when we used to like the Rock. I thought he was cool, pretty sad.
Speaker 2:Well, he was cool for a while. It started in a Sean William Scott movie. That's when I fell in love with him. What is that movie called?
Speaker 1:The Escape the something.
Speaker 2:It's the runaround, the runaround, the rundown. There you go, the rundown.
Speaker 1:Did we do that movie? I feel like I watched that movie.
Speaker 2:I don't think so because that movie's perfect. It's not a perfect movie. Tony Christopher Walken is great in that movie.
Speaker 1:Oh, I kind of remember that. I must have watched that movie.
Speaker 2:I think I mean Everybody should watch that movie.
Speaker 1:It's a fun movie, I guess we're going to have to do the big monkey movie Rampage. I don't know if I watched that one or not. Rampage is manipulative.
Speaker 2:We didn't watch that one, just be warned, oh, about animals.
Speaker 1:That's why I'm not going to do that, yep, that's why I'm never going to watch Guardians 3. Just don't, don't ever do it Terrible so now we're talking about something we like this week.
Speaker 2:I finished Black Mirror.
Speaker 1:It was fine. I don't think any of the ones are ones I'm going to watch over and over again, like the Miley Cyrus one. I watched that one, I love that one. And the other thing I watched is on the Disney channel. I started watching Blackbeard's Ghost, which is a live action thing where the ghost of Blackbeard comes back to life in 1968 and helps the local track team I think win or something.
Speaker 1:Wait whoa wait, that went a very different direction than I thought you were going to go, and they're trying to keep the criminals from taking Blackbeard's old house and tearing it down and building a casino.
Speaker 2:The runners the track team. Didn't you say a track team? Yeah?
Speaker 1:the track team, because he's the track coach that comes to town and then the ghost manifests.
Speaker 2:And I think he has to use the ghost because that's a classic disney formula.
Speaker 1:What are you talking about right now. This is great. In the first flubber you know flubber you got to make the basketball team win sure, yep, that's so in this one, I think they, you know they gotta make the track team win I love it.
Speaker 2:it that sounds great. What was it called Blackbeard's?
Speaker 1:Ghost, blackbeard's Ghost. I'm intrigued at how you use Blackbeard's Ghost to get the track team to win. Doesn't make a lot of sense, unless they're running from a ghost. Maybe he just murders the entire other team Just kills them all.
Speaker 1:See, that'll do it. They didn't let us make some movies. Disney Plus. This is a movie I want to see. You know, the kids are walking shell-shocked into the thing. You're like, oh man, they must have lost the track. Meet Gold medal, silver medal. Then we look and they're just covered in blood. You know, we see their face and we pan down. They're covered in blood. What happened? How?
Speaker 2:did all the other teams die yes this is Blackbeard's Ghost.
Speaker 1:I mean this is a great movie, but the thing I'm going to say about Blackbeard's Ghost is it's shot on sound stages and so they make it look like outdoors, but they have these fake bushes and then they shoot night scenes. But it also has this glaring, you know light on it and it just it's this weird magical. It's like when you, when you go do pirates of the caribbean at disneyland, where you're like it's so staged, real sort of almost, but then also so fake because of the lighting yeah, I love it.
Speaker 1:I loved it. Tony, what do you got for us?
Speaker 2:Well, dan, get ready, hold on to your butts.
Speaker 1:You know what I'm saying, both my butts.
Speaker 2:Let me just say we are fully caught up on Love Island UK.
Speaker 1:But that's not the bad one. The American one's the terrible one right.
Speaker 2:So yeah, love Island USA season. What is this? Seven, I think, six or seven, seven, I think, is what we're on is the worst season of love island ever created. And then we started the new season of love island uk, because they they overlap, which I think is a mistake. But I mean they can do whatever they and it is delightful. We have watched 47 episodes in one week.
Speaker 1:What? There's 47 episodes of the new season.
Speaker 2:That is correct. Is it every day? It's not even over yet I don't understand.
Speaker 1:How is it 47 episodes? They air six days a week.
Speaker 2:It's six days a week and they have one day off a week, but they also do what's called Unseen Bits and a recap show called After Sun. So it's not always new content from the villa, but there's always something.
Speaker 1:You watched 47 hours of a show.
Speaker 2:Give or take? Yeah, because some of them are over an hour, but yeah, we've been hitting it hard this week. It's delightful Hold on a second.
Speaker 1:It's great TV. You watched 47 hours, correct.
Speaker 2:And it's great TV.
Speaker 1:That's like six hours a day.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, is that bad? Is that what you're saying? Listen, we've needed a palate cleanser after USA, which was just awful.
Speaker 1:Is there that much of the USA one?
Speaker 2:No, the USA one is way short. They're like around 30, I think Late 20s to 30s or something for their total run.
Speaker 1:Wow what a waste. Okay well there you go Love it 47 episodes.
Speaker 2:Not a waste at all. It's a delightful show. Well, not the USA. The USA glorious. Not a waste at all. It's a delightful show? Well, not the us. The usa one was a waste of time, yeah so we're not doing dukes of hauser next week okay, we'll save it.
Speaker 1:I looked at vanilla sky.
Speaker 2:We haven't done vanilla sky yet I don't think I've ever seen vanilla skies. I don't know if I can handle it.
Speaker 1:It's like cameron crowe and I hated the the one that was about his real. So I'm like I have to imagine him making up a thing not about his real life. It's even worse, Didn't we do a Cameron Crowe? We did a Cameron Crowe, we did a Cameron Crowe. I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 2:Did we? Yeah, I think we did. I'm sure you we've done a lot of movies, Stan.
