1
0:00:11,893 --> 0:00:14,396
Speaker 1: Welcome to a new episode of Pick Six Movies.

2
0:00:15,000 --> 0:00:17,280
Speaker 1: Let me start by saying Domo arigato.

3
0:00:18,403 --> 0:00:33,611
Speaker 1: No, I'm not just thanking you, although we definitely appreciate you being here, but our season 26 is a set of movies hardwired to entertain you with tales of robots and robot adjacent Tom Fulery, a season we are calling Domo erigato.

4
0:00:34,480 --> 0:00:50,065
Speaker 1: As with every episode, not only do you get me that's Bo Randsdal and my best pal Chad Cooper opening up the metal housing to see what makes these automatons tick, you get an introduction to give you some backstory on the movie and some interesting tidbits to make you look smarter at parties.

5
0:00:50,640 --> 0:00:52,867
Speaker 1: And we do that six times every ding-dong season.

6
0:00:53,720 --> 0:01:05,718
Speaker 1: We are kicking off this season with a tale of disgusting robot love and dead beep dads with the Andy Kaufman, bernadette Peters, miss Fire heart beeps from 1981.

7
0:01:06,320 --> 0:01:07,365
Speaker 1: But enough of my amoring.

8
0:01:07,746 --> 0:01:12,626
Speaker 1: Let's turn on the servos and march this unholy metallic beast of a show into your ears.

9
0:01:13,520 --> 0:01:14,482
Speaker 1: Take it away, chad.

10
0:01:18,520 --> 0:01:31,073
Speaker 2: In May of 1897, american satirist Samuel Clemens, aka Mark Twain, was traveling in London on a speaking tour to earn some cash to pay off sizable debts he had related to some unsuccessful investments.

11
0:01:31,360 --> 0:01:34,810
Speaker 2: While in London, a rumor began that Mark Twain was gravely ill.

12
0:01:35,080 --> 0:01:39,712
Speaker 2: This rumor evolved to the point where Mark Twain had died on his speaking tour.

13
0:01:40,080 --> 0:01:49,228
Speaker 2: There is a legend that a major American newspaper printed Twain's obituary, to which he responded the reports of my death are greatly exaggerated.

14
0:01:50,080 --> 0:01:57,848
Speaker 2: Sometimes you hear the quote that the reports of his death are grossly exaggerated, but both of these are inaccurate, never happened.

15
0:01:58,360 --> 0:02:00,468
Speaker 2: Here's what's a little bit closer to the truth.

16
0:02:00,680 --> 0:02:09,571
Speaker 2: In May of 1897, frank Marshall White, an English correspondent for the New York Journal, reached out to Twain while he was in London to ask about Twain's poor health.

17
0:02:09,760 --> 0:02:17,690
Speaker 2: The editors of the New York Journal sent a cable message to White requesting a quote from Twain, as he was reportedly on his deathbed.

18
0:02:18,200 --> 0:02:24,967
Speaker 2: Twain was both amused and annoyed by the report portraying him as being on his deathbed and in poverty while in London.

19
0:02:25,360 --> 0:02:28,751
Speaker 2: Twain responded in a handwritten letter.

20
0:02:29,253 --> 0:02:32,345
Speaker 2: I can understand perfectly how the report of my illness got about.

21
0:02:32,840 --> 0:02:45,569
Speaker 2: I have even heard on good authority that I was dead James Ross Clemens, a cousin of mine, was seriously ill two or three weeks ago in London, but as well now, the report of my illness grew out of his illness.

22
0:02:46,000 --> 0:02:48,168
Speaker 2: The report of my death was an exaggeration.

23
0:02:48,560 --> 0:02:55,306
Speaker 2: The misquote of what Twain said is attributed to a biography that was published in 1912, two years after Twain died.

24
0:02:55,620 --> 0:03:01,927
Speaker 2: The biography includes the source of the misquote, where the author of this biography embellishes the story a little bit.

25
0:03:02,180 --> 0:03:11,651
Speaker 2: The author states that the reporter White was told to send back a 500 word story if Twain was ill and a 1000 word story if Twain was dead.

26
0:03:12,080 --> 0:03:21,289
Speaker 2: In this version of the story, white showed the request to Twain, who smiled grimly and said you don't need as much as that.

27
0:03:21,731 --> 0:03:25,304
Speaker 2: Just say the report of my death has been grossly exaggerated.

28
0:03:26,240 --> 0:03:31,310
Speaker 2: Twain himself wrote in his 1897 book, following the equator, that quote.

29
0:03:31,991 --> 0:03:38,272
Speaker 2: I believe that nearly any invented quotation played with confidence stands a good chance to deceive.

30
0:03:38,982 --> 0:03:44,908
Speaker 2: And Twain was right if you make something up and you play it straight, many people will believe it without any evidence to back it up.

31
0:03:45,440 --> 0:03:52,868
Speaker 2: Although Twain never actually read his obituary, he wasn't the only famous person to ever fall victim to what is known as a death hoax.

32
0:03:53,640 --> 0:04:01,890
Speaker 2: Following the death of Franklin Roosevelt, there were death hoax reports of multiple celebrities being dead, including Charlie Chaplin and Frank Sinatra.

33
0:04:02,540 --> 0:04:12,051
Speaker 2: In 1966, rumors across college campuses began to spread that Paul McCartney was killed in a garg crash and that he was replaced with a lookalike to spare fans from unimaginable grief.

34
0:04:12,880 --> 0:04:20,090
Speaker 2: In September of 1969, the student newspaper of Drake University in Des Moines, iowa, published an article titled Is Beatle Paul McCartney Dead?

35
0:04:20,520 --> 0:04:25,767
Speaker 2: The article cited some clues From recent Beatles albums, including a hidden message.

36
0:04:26,107 --> 0:04:34,053
Speaker 2: When one played the song Revolution 9 from the white album backward, reportedly, you could hear the words turn me on dead man.

37
0:04:34,680 --> 0:04:46,386
Speaker 2: The article also cited evidence from the back cover of Sgt Pepper's lonely Hearts Club band where John, george and Ringo were facing forward, but Paul is turned backward.

38
0:04:48,280 --> 0:04:50,180
Speaker 2: People do crazy stuff when they're high.

39
0:04:50,200 --> 0:04:54,104
Speaker 2: Reportedly, this was the first time someone had published a Paula's Dead theory, but it wasn't the last.

40
0:04:54,440 --> 0:04:59,605
Speaker 2: This was the age of Vietnam and there was growing distrust in establishments, including government and the media.

41
0:05:00,280 --> 0:05:04,169
Speaker 2: People were susceptible to me, leaving all kinds of crazy conspiracy theories.

42
0:05:05,760 --> 0:05:10,812
Speaker 2: Thank goodness it's not like that anymore, he said, trying not to sigh heavily.

43
0:05:11,380 --> 0:05:23,309
Speaker 2: The rumors of Paul McCartney's death were only fueled when their album Abbey Road was released, where the album cover featured the famous image of the four members in the crosswalk, with Paul Barefoot representing he Was the Corpse.

44
0:05:23,800 --> 0:05:26,226
Speaker 2: John Lennon was in a white suit representing the priest.

45
0:05:26,607 --> 0:05:43,306
Speaker 2: Despite multiple denials of Paul McCartney's death, including a denial by Paul McCartney himself, it didn't put an end to this rumor, mccartney told the BBC quote if the conclusion you reach is that I'm dead, then you're wrong because I'm alive and living in Scotland.

46
0:05:43,787 --> 0:05:44,489
Speaker 2: End quote.

47
0:05:46,120 --> 0:05:48,367
Speaker 2: Just the thing a fake Paul McCartney would say.

48
0:05:49,560 --> 0:05:51,988
Speaker 2: But sir Paul McCartney wasn't alone.

49
0:05:52,580 --> 0:05:57,425
Speaker 2: Sir Sean Connery ultimately had to appear in the late show with David Letterman in 1993 to prove that he wasn't dead.

50
0:05:57,720 --> 0:06:12,731
Speaker 2: A rumor began when a close friend of Connery's died around the same time that Texas Governor John Connelly died, and this all got jumbled up in a Japanese newspaper report, leading to rumors that the James Bond actor was dead when he was not.

51
0:06:13,120 --> 0:06:27,091
Speaker 2: With the birth of social media, other celebrities fell victim to hearing that they died through internet reports, including, but not limited to, tom Cruise, matt Damon, gene Hackman, george Clooney, beyonce, hillary Duff, jackie Chan, morgan Freeman, steven Cigall and Arnold Schwarzenegger.

52
0:06:28,964 --> 0:06:34,705
Speaker 2: There's a flip side to the celebrity death hoax, which comes in the form of a death denial conspiracy theory.

53
0:06:35,180 --> 0:06:39,991
Speaker 2: This is when someone usually a famous person dies, but the rumor is they're still alive.

54
0:06:40,720 --> 0:06:44,520
Speaker 2: Most famously was the death of Elvis Presley in 1977.

55
0:06:44,520 --> 0:06:47,668
Speaker 2: Elvis died sitting on the toilet, straining really hard to take a shit.

56
0:06:47,909 --> 0:06:48,551
Speaker 2: That's a fact.

57
0:06:49,040 --> 0:06:53,972
Speaker 2: Reportedly, elvis was a longtime user of opiates, which causes severe constipation.

58
0:06:54,480 --> 0:07:01,870
Speaker 2: His use of other drugs, combined with other health issues, was a perfect combination leading to the king of rock and roll dying on the throne from a heart attack.

59
0:07:02,460 --> 0:07:15,567
Speaker 2: By the early 1980s, there began to be rumored sightings of Elvis, starting with a sighting of a man who looked like Elvis in the Memphis airport, claiming to be John Burroughs, a name Elvis used when checking into hotels.

60
0:07:16,320 --> 0:07:27,809
Speaker 2: Subsequent sightings in Kalamazoo, michigan, and at California's Legoland led publications like the Weekly World News to regularly feature Elvis Presley on the cover, promoting the idea that Elvis may still be alive.

61
0:07:28,040 --> 0:07:34,208
Speaker 2: And for people checking out at grocery stores across the country, it really kept this idea alive that Elvis well may be alive.

62
0:07:34,720 --> 0:07:45,131
Speaker 2: Actor Bill Bixby, who starred with Elvis in two movies, hosted two Countham 2 documentary specials investigating the conspiracy theories of Elvis still being alive.

63
0:07:45,560 --> 0:07:51,152
Speaker 2: There was the Elvis files in 1991 and, one year later, the Elvis conspiracy in 1992.

64
0:07:52,000 --> 0:07:58,248
Speaker 2: About this time there were rumors that Elvis actually made a cameo in the movie Home Alone, one of the highest grossing movies of all time.

65
0:07:59,683 --> 0:08:07,862
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's how you keep a low profile after you fake your death, rumors of Elvis working with the mob or maybe with the government as a double agent began to bubble up.

66
0:08:08,123 --> 0:08:13,546
Speaker 2: There was a movie titled Bubba Hotep, starring Bruce Campbell and Ozzie Davis, which you should see if you have not.

67
0:08:14,080 --> 0:08:28,451
Speaker 2: It's all centered about Elvis faking his death and swapping places with a lookalike, only to do battle with an Egyptian mummy in a nursing home alongside an elderly John F Kennedy, who also is not dead, but is now an elderly black man confined to a wheelchair.

68
0:08:28,720 --> 0:08:30,768
Speaker 2: Trust me, it's even better than it sounds.

69
0:08:31,161 --> 0:08:47,672
Speaker 2: And speaking of JFK, this phenomena of people spreading rumors about people being alive after they're dead included JFK Jr, who reportedly survived his 1999 plane crash and, according to the QAnon movement, he's going to return to be Donald Trump's vice president in 2024.

70
0:08:48,520 --> 0:08:49,525
Speaker 2: What a world we live in.

71
0:08:49,960 --> 0:09:00,232
Speaker 2: Tupac, shakur, prince, michael Jackson they were all the focus of similar conspiracy theories that plagued Elvis Presley, where they faked their death but were secretly alive.

72
0:09:00,360 --> 0:09:09,111
Speaker 2: For many, these rumors are grounded in the hope that these entertainers would return to continue to make music for their most loyal fans or allegedly molest more children.

73
0:09:09,760 --> 0:09:15,226
Speaker 2: But there was one celebrity who died and upon his death the rumors of him faking his demise were not started by his fans.

74
0:09:15,760 --> 0:09:24,797
Speaker 2: They were actually started by those closest to him who knew him better than anybody else, which, by most reports, nobody really knew him at all.

75
0:09:28,444 --> 0:09:35,874
Speaker 2: Andrew Jeffrey Kaufman was born on January 17, 1949, but everybody knew him as Andy.

76
0:09:37,180 --> 0:09:40,749
Speaker 2: Kaufman was an entertainer, like performance artist.

77
0:09:42,460 --> 0:09:49,289
Speaker 2: People regularly mislabeled him as a comedian, but Kaufman didn't tell jokes or partake in comedy as it was defined at the time.

78
0:09:49,840 --> 0:09:55,267
Speaker 2: In an interview Kaufman told a reporter quote the comedian's promise is that he will go out there and make you laugh with him.

79
0:09:55,800 --> 0:09:59,450
Speaker 2: My only promise is that I will try to entertain you as best as I can.

80
0:09:59,980 --> 0:10:00,342
Speaker 2: End quote.

81
0:10:01,060 --> 0:10:04,430
Speaker 2: And that's perhaps the best word to describe Andy Kaufman.

82
0:10:04,520 --> 0:10:08,690
Speaker 2: He was an entertainer and at times he had an audience of one himself.

83
0:10:09,740 --> 0:10:14,071
Speaker 2: Kaufman grew up in New York and at an early age he found a love of entertaining others.

84
0:10:14,560 --> 0:10:27,428
Speaker 2: He would perform at birthday parties as a child, overcoming early shy tendencies After struggling through school, kaufman eventually graduated high school and received a permanent 4F deferment to avoid being drafted into the Vietnam War.

85
0:10:27,548 --> 0:10:40,751
Speaker 2: Following a psychological evaluation that he failed, the doctor who evaluated Kaufman said that he lived in a fantasy world that he had created as a child and if he was put into the military he would lose his mind.

86
0:10:41,100 --> 0:10:45,131
Speaker 2: Kaufman proudly showed off the letter containing this report to his friends.

87
0:10:45,400 --> 0:10:51,764
Speaker 2: Kaufman knew what he was doing and encouraged people regularly to believe whatever they wanted to believe.

88
0:10:52,740 --> 0:10:59,347
Speaker 2: Kaufman began working in comedy clubs in the 1970s where he caught the eye of Bud Friedman, who owned the improv comedy club.

89
0:10:59,900 --> 0:11:01,025
Speaker 2: Friedman took a chance on Kaufman.

90
0:11:01,280 --> 0:11:03,629
Speaker 2: Now his act was a bit unconventional.

91
0:11:03,800 --> 0:11:14,300
Speaker 2: So, for example, kaufman would come out on stage and set up a record player and play a recording of the Mighty Mouse cartoon theme song, where he would lip sync the only line.

92
0:11:18,968 --> 0:11:19,509
Speaker 2: It was odd.

93
0:11:25,746 --> 0:11:28,732
Speaker 2: It was a persona that he created as a child to entertain his sister.

94
0:11:29,360 --> 0:11:39,832
Speaker 2: He would speak in a slightly high pitched, choppy accent and he would do impressions of famous people but would maintain the voice and mannerisms of the Foreign man persona.

95
0:11:40,140 --> 0:11:59,343
Speaker 2: As audiences grew frustrated or accustomed to his inability to impersonate people, kaufman would announce his final impression, elvis Presley, where he would perform a pitch perfect impression of Elvis Presley, driving the audience wild, only to return to his Foreign man accent at the end.

96
0:12:00,260 --> 0:12:07,669
Speaker 2: Kaufman's performances at comedy clubs in New York City ultimately landed him a guest spot on the first season of Saturday Night Live.

97
0:12:08,060 --> 0:12:17,872
Speaker 2: In his performance, kaufman performed as his Foreign man character, and he comes out on stage and begins to butcher a story that has no real punchline.

98
0:12:18,340 --> 0:12:26,053
Speaker 3: It was three people and they carried the biggest cannon in the world to Spain.

99
0:12:27,260 --> 0:12:39,255
Speaker 3: So it was two boys and one girl and they carried the cannon to the highest mountain in Spain.

100
0:12:40,600 --> 0:12:50,525
Speaker 3: So the first boy you know they are on top of the mountain and the first boy, he points the cannon to this castle.

101
0:12:57,207 --> 0:13:03,835
Speaker 3: So he said to the second boy all right, hand me the cannonball.

102
0:13:06,063 --> 0:13:10,652
Speaker 3: And so the second boy, he said I thought you had them.

103
0:13:16,488 --> 0:13:23,026
Speaker 3: So they both turned to the girl and she said don't look at me.

104
0:13:26,264 --> 0:13:27,759
Speaker 3: You know they couldn't shoot.

105
0:13:29,003 --> 0:13:31,810
Speaker 3: They had the cannon, but they could not.

106
0:13:31,830 --> 0:13:34,446
Speaker 3: They have no cannonball, they could not shoot.

107
0:13:35,602 --> 0:13:36,586
Speaker 3: Do you understand?

108
0:13:37,020 --> 0:13:38,644
Speaker 2: As the audience awkwardly laughs.

109
0:13:39,105 --> 0:13:41,450
Speaker 2: An imitation of Archie Bunker followed this.

110
0:13:41,851 --> 0:13:44,647
Speaker 2: That was anything but an accurate imitation.

111
0:13:44,800 --> 0:13:45,944
Speaker 3: You stop it.

112
0:13:47,140 --> 0:13:50,978
Speaker 3: You are so stupid Everybody's stupid.

113
0:13:52,544 --> 0:13:54,369
Speaker 3: Get out of my chair, mithat.

114
0:13:55,761 --> 0:13:59,990
Speaker 3: Go into the thing, but get into the kitchen making the food.

115
0:14:02,662 --> 0:14:03,927
Speaker 3: Everybody's stupid.

116
0:14:04,260 --> 0:14:05,425
Speaker 3: I don't like nobody's.

117
0:14:06,503 --> 0:14:07,632
Speaker 3: It's so stupid.

118
0:14:07,640 --> 0:14:12,011
Speaker 2: This led into an uncomfortable silence, as he forgot his next bit.

119
0:14:12,420 --> 0:14:15,085
Speaker 3: Now I would like to imitate.

120
0:14:21,120 --> 0:14:24,365
Speaker 2: The audience sits in silence with moments of uncomfortable laughter.

121
0:14:30,740 --> 0:14:34,255
Speaker 2: The moments were so uncomfortable that Kaufman addresses his audience.

122
0:14:34,375 --> 0:14:37,125
Speaker 2: Who is unsure what is happening on live TV?

123
0:14:39,924 --> 0:14:45,439
Speaker 3: I think we should turn off the TV.

124
0:14:50,267 --> 0:15:06,314
Speaker 3: I don't know if you are laughing at me or with me, but you know, trying to do my best and I forgot what I was going to do.

125
0:15:11,686 --> 0:15:13,308
Speaker 3: I promise that.

126
0:15:14,570 --> 0:15:18,075
Speaker 3: You know it's nothing I can do, but promise I will not be here again.

127
0:15:20,324 --> 0:15:23,111
Speaker 3: But he's so funny about that, I don't.

128
0:15:23,540 --> 0:15:26,068
Speaker 2: He grows so despondent that he begins to cry.

129
0:15:26,941 --> 0:15:33,540
Speaker 2: I don't know what to do.

130
0:15:36,265 --> 0:15:37,708
Speaker 4: I try to do my best.

131
0:15:42,124 --> 0:15:43,187
Speaker 4: I try to do your love.

132
0:15:46,043 --> 0:15:50,553
Speaker 4: I try to do your love.

133
0:15:50,620 --> 0:16:11,749
Speaker 2: It turns into a rhythmic chant, leading Kaufman to play a conga drum that has been sitting on stage the whole time in rhythm with his cry chant and he immediately wins back the audience as they clap along and he dances on the stage.

134
0:16:15,620 --> 0:16:18,429
Speaker 2: People didn't know what to make of this, but they wanted more.

135
0:16:19,021 --> 0:16:22,810
Speaker 2: This was at a time when there was all kinds of weird shit showing up on TV.

136
0:16:23,640 --> 0:16:31,013
Speaker 2: Joe Allen Flowers and his sassy old broad puppet, madame, would show up to spew sexy double on Tondras.

137
0:16:31,740 --> 0:16:37,752
Speaker 2: Mime duo, shields and Yarnel would pretend to be robots on multiple variety shows.

138
0:16:38,620 --> 0:16:43,312
Speaker 2: Fun fact, yarnel was Dot Matrix and Spaceballs, with Joan Rivers only doing the voiceover work.

139
0:16:43,800 --> 0:16:57,409
Speaker 2: Swisk Mask Theater troupe Moomin Shunts they'd show up to pull toilet paper off their heads and they were often featured on the Muppet Show, which had its own flavor of adorable and lovable oddities that were injected into pop culture.

140
0:16:57,922 --> 0:17:00,620
Speaker 2: Kaufman's flavor of entertainment was ill-defined and different.

141
0:17:00,881 --> 0:17:15,793
Speaker 2: It was just the kind of thing that some people were looking for, and some of those people were TV producers who approached Kaufman to take his foreign man character and adapt him for the sitcom Taxi, where he would play the mechanic Ladka.

142
0:17:16,660 --> 0:17:26,620
Speaker 2: Bob Zamuda, kaufman's longtime friend and writing partner said that the show creators of Taxi essentially bought Kaufman's foreign man character to turn into Ladka.

143
0:17:27,222 --> 0:17:38,620
Speaker 2: Kaufman was encouraged to take the job by his managers and Kaufman agreed to appear in 14 episodes per season, but he wanted four of these appearances to feature his alter ego, tony Clifton.

144
0:17:39,542 --> 0:17:45,534
Speaker 2: Tony Clifton was an abrasive, cat-skill-style comedian who took pleasure in making the audience hate him.

145
0:17:45,981 --> 0:17:59,367
Speaker 2: This request was removed from Kaufman's contract after Kaufman deliberately appeared as Clifton on the set of Taxi, offending everyone and ultimately sabotaging any chance of Tony Clifton ever appearing on that show ever.

146
0:17:59,780 --> 0:18:06,988
Speaker 2: Tony Clifton would open for Andy Kaufman at Comedy Club, sometimes being portrayed by his friend Bob Zamuda or his brother Michael.

147
0:18:07,620 --> 0:18:26,110
Speaker 2: Audiences would show up to sometimes see Tony Clifton perform, expecting it to be Kaufman dressed up as the character, only to have Kaufman appear on stage at the end of Clifton's performance, revealing to the audience that they had been duped and that they saw a fake performance of Tony Clifton, all to the delight of Andy Kaufman.

148
0:18:26,660 --> 0:18:30,620
Speaker 2: Kaufman's deal with ABC to appear in the sitcom Taxi provided him with a television special.

149
0:18:31,062 --> 0:18:35,600
Speaker 2: In this special he decided that he wanted to interview Howdy Doody, the Puppet.

150
0:18:35,882 --> 0:18:40,267
Speaker 2: He included a section titled has Been Corner At one point in the special.

151
0:18:40,588 --> 0:18:45,447
Speaker 2: He intentionally aired static so that viewers at home would think their TVs were not working correctly.

152
0:18:46,141 --> 0:18:52,153
Speaker 2: Kaufman appeared on the late night sketch show Fridays, a competitor to Saturday Night Live that aired, you know, on Fridays.

153
0:18:52,982 --> 0:18:59,096
Speaker 2: In the final sketch of his first appearance he broke character and just stopped reading the lines from his cue cards and said he felt stupid.

154
0:18:59,137 --> 0:19:20,620
Speaker 2: In the sketch, fellow performer Michael Richards, who would go on to play Kramer on the sitcom Seinfeld, walked off camera, grabbed the cue cards, brought them back on stage and threw them in front of Andy Kaufman in response through a glass of water at Richards, which ultimately led to Kaufman getting into a fight with a crew member on live TV before they cut away to a commercial.

155
0:19:21,667 --> 0:19:23,580
Speaker 2: The fight, it turns out, was planned all along.

156
0:19:24,544 --> 0:19:31,600
Speaker 2: Kaufman made multiple appearances on the talk show circuit, including the Tonight Show and most famously on Late Night with David Letterman.

157
0:19:32,582 --> 0:19:38,594
Speaker 2: Kaufman became obsessed with the world of professional wrestling entertainment that is both fake and real all at the same time.

158
0:19:39,081 --> 0:19:46,600
Speaker 2: Kaufman wrestled Jerry the King, lawler, after taunting him with multiple videos that also insulted his fans and residents of more rural areas.

159
0:19:47,121 --> 0:19:54,394
Speaker 2: Their feud contained and included Kaufman suffering a neck injury from a pile driver wrestling move done by Lawler.

160
0:19:54,660 --> 0:20:01,474
Speaker 2: The two appeared on the David Letterman talk show together, where Lawler hit Kaufman in the face, knocking him out of his chair.

161
0:20:02,221 --> 0:20:07,393
Speaker 2: It turns out that all of this was staged but was not revealed until over 10 years later.

162
0:20:07,861 --> 0:20:16,620
Speaker 2: Kaufman appeared in a film titled my Breakfast with Blasey, where he ate at a Sambo's restaurant with wrestling personality Classy Freddy Blasey.

163
0:20:17,242 --> 0:20:20,351
Speaker 2: The film was a parody of the film my Dinner with Andre.

164
0:20:20,961 --> 0:20:25,620
Speaker 2: In the movie, bob Zamuda appears as an admiring fan, which leads to a fight in the restaurant.

165
0:20:26,582 --> 0:20:33,620
Speaker 2: My Dinner with Andre was directed by Johnny Legend, and his sister Lynn Margolisse also appears in the movie.

166
0:20:34,182 --> 0:20:43,492
Speaker 2: Margolisse would later become the filmmaker behind the documentary-style film I'm From Hollywood, a movie that chronicles Andy Kaufman's exploits in the world of professional wrestling.

167
0:20:43,680 --> 0:20:47,399
Speaker 2: Margolisse and Kaufman were romantically involved and she would be with him until his death.

168
0:20:48,443 --> 0:20:50,289
Speaker 2: But let's put a pin in that for just a moment.

169
0:20:50,981 --> 0:20:53,088
Speaker 2: Andy Kaufman only acted in three films.

170
0:20:53,620 --> 0:20:56,809
Speaker 2: Kaufman had a small part as a police officer in 1976.

171
0:20:57,090 --> 0:21:04,129
Speaker 2: God Told Me To, a sci-fi horror film about seemingly normal people just killing other people and then claiming as the title gives away.

172
0:21:04,470 --> 0:21:05,432
Speaker 2: God told me to do it.

173
0:21:05,841 --> 0:21:11,559
Speaker 2: In 1980, kaufman appeared in the movie In God we Trust, two movies featuring God in the title.

174
0:21:13,203 --> 0:21:21,620
Speaker 2: The movie was directed by, produced by and starred Marty Feldman, who you may remember as Igor from Young Frankenstein, among other films.

175
0:21:22,583 --> 0:21:33,580
Speaker 2: In this film, kaufman played a television evangelist named Armageddon T Thunderbird, and that same film, richard Pryor played a character named GOD, a supercomputer.

176
0:21:34,241 --> 0:21:40,273
Speaker 2: Peter Boyle was a con artist, louise Lasser was a hooker named Mary and Feldman was a naive monk.

177
0:21:40,801 --> 0:21:43,349
Speaker 2: If you've never heard of this film, it's because it's not very good.

178
0:21:43,861 --> 0:21:47,690
Speaker 2: And Kaufman's third and final movie is the subject of this episode Heart Beeps.

179
0:21:51,740 --> 0:21:57,333
Speaker 2: Heart Beeps was released in 1981, and it's a sci-fi rom-com about two robots who fall in love.

180
0:21:57,620 --> 0:22:05,414
Speaker 2: Andy Kaufman starred as the movie's male lead, a robot named Val, and his co-star was Bernadette Peters, a female robot named Aqua.

181
0:22:05,961 --> 0:22:13,354
Speaker 2: Normally this is when we talk about how and why the movie got made and then, towards the end, we'll throw in a few reviews of the movie.

182
0:22:13,821 --> 0:22:16,510
Speaker 2: But we're gonna do things a little bit differently this time.

183
0:22:16,640 --> 0:22:20,491
Speaker 2: See Heart Beeps has a 0% freshness rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

184
0:22:20,941 --> 0:22:25,600
Speaker 2: Vincent Canby from the New York Times described the movie as unbearable and felt the story was dreadful.

185
0:22:26,422 --> 0:22:32,620
Speaker 2: Reviewer Gary Arnold said that he didn't imagine that the film stars would suffer too much because nobody was gonna see this movie.

186
0:22:33,301 --> 0:22:40,297
Speaker 2: Siskel and Evert both gave it two big thumbs down, and even Andy Kaufman himself thought that the movie was so bad that.

187
0:22:40,477 --> 0:22:41,620
Speaker 2: Well, here's what he had to say.

188
0:22:42,082 --> 0:22:46,038
Speaker 5: When I made that movie, heart Beeps and it got terrible reviews and I rightfully saw it.

189
0:22:46,058 --> 0:22:49,649
Speaker 5: It was a terrible movie and I'm embarrassed that I was in it.

190
0:22:49,889 --> 0:22:53,600
Speaker 5: And I just want to say about that is that I did not write it, direct it, produce it.

191
0:22:54,222 --> 0:22:55,066
Speaker 5: I had nothing to do with it.

192
0:22:55,327 --> 0:22:58,620
Speaker 5: I was hired to act in it and because my name was up there, people think it was all my movie.

193
0:22:59,381 --> 0:23:13,898
Speaker 5: Well, I just want to say to my fans if there are any out there, that I would like to personally apologize to each and every one of you for me being in that movie, and I mean the people who worked with me in the movie the director, producer, the writer.

194
0:23:13,918 --> 0:23:14,620
Speaker 5: They were all very wonderful people.

195
0:23:15,466 --> 0:23:16,714
Speaker 5: It just didn't come out right.

196
0:23:16,734 --> 0:23:24,620
Speaker 5: The movie just did not come out right and I want to apologize to all of you who saw my name and you went there because you wanted to see me in a movie and you were very disappointed.

197
0:23:25,261 --> 0:23:29,166
Speaker 5: And the truth of the matter is I am right now working with my lawyer on a plan.

198
0:23:29,466 --> 0:23:42,493
Speaker 5: I would love to be able to personally give back the money that all of you paid for your admission price and I am right now working on a plan where I can legally do that out of my pocket, refund everybody's admission price.

199
0:23:42,861 --> 0:23:44,327
Speaker 5: Well, make sure you have change for a 20.

200
0:23:46,504 --> 0:23:47,607
Speaker 2: So the movie is terrible.

201
0:23:47,947 --> 0:23:48,709
Speaker 2: That's not unusual.

202
0:23:48,869 --> 0:23:50,172
Speaker 2: There are a lot of bad movies out there.

203
0:23:50,680 --> 0:23:52,829
Speaker 2: This one had a lot of good people working on it.

204
0:23:53,190 --> 0:23:57,620

207
0:24:07,961 --> 0:24:11,130
Speaker 2: You know Joe Dante, the guy who directed Grimlins and Piranha in interspace.

208
0:24:11,620 --> 0:24:15,106
Speaker 2: After this Heart Beeps disaster, the film's director Arkesh.

209
0:24:15,407 --> 0:24:21,959
Speaker 2: He went on to do a lot of work in television, directing the famous Dancing Baby episode of Ali McBeal.

210
0:24:22,139 --> 0:24:22,600
Speaker 2: Good for him.

211
0:24:23,221 --> 0:24:32,905
Speaker 2: As terrible as this movie is, it did receive an Oscar nomination for Special Effects Makeup, thanks to Stan Winston yeah, that, Stan Winston.

0:24:33,166 --> 0:24:36,533
Speaker 2: Terminator 2, Aliens, Jurassic Park that Stan Winston.

213
0:24:36,840 --> 0:24:47,194

214
0:24:48,840 --> 0:24:57,620
Speaker 2: The movie was written by John Hill, who had limited writing experience and would later go on to write a few episodes for the TV show Quantum Leap and LA Law, among others.

215
0:24:58,341 --> 0:25:02,990
Speaker 2: As for the cast, the movie also features weirdo, extraordinaire Randy Quaid.

216
0:25:03,010 --> 0:25:08,620
Speaker 2: You can hear all about his life on our episode about Christmas Vacation 2, Cousin Eddie's Island Adventure.

217
0:25:09,302 --> 0:25:12,611
Speaker 2: If you're interested, it's a bonus episode at the end of season four.

218
0:25:13,141 --> 0:25:18,293
Speaker 2: Snl alumnus Christopher Guest, who's also married to Jamie Lee Curtis, is in this movie.

219
0:25:18,680 --> 0:25:20,164
Speaker 2: Melanie Mayron plays Susan.

220
0:25:20,205 --> 0:25:25,620
Speaker 2: She would later find success as Melissa Steadman on the 1980s show 30-something.

Speaker 2: Christopher Guest and Melanie Mayron play a young couple who live in a trash pile.

222
0:25:31,551 --> 0:25:41,600
Speaker 2: As best as I can tell from watching this thing A little bit more on that later, Legendary guitar from Anjiri Garcia lent his guitar talent to provide sound effects for the robot Phil.

223
0:25:42,523 --> 0:25:50,176
Speaker 2: Legendary comedian Jack Carter, who we last saw on Pick Six Movies getting eaten by an alligator in the movie Alligator, Season 16, episode two.

224
0:25:50,216 --> 0:25:50,600
Speaker 2: That was a good one.

225
0:25:51,402 --> 0:25:52,343
Speaker 2: Well, that Jack Carter.

226
0:25:52,684 --> 0:25:57,474
Speaker 2: He voices the character of Catskill, the wise, cracking and unfunny robot.

227
0:25:57,781 --> 0:25:59,489
Speaker 2: So we have all these talent to feed people this movie.

228
0:25:59,751 --> 0:26:01,620
Speaker 2: But it's an absolute dumpster fire.

229
0:26:02,524 --> 0:26:03,548
Speaker 2: And how did this happen?

230
0:26:04,081 --> 0:26:18,212
Speaker 4: Now, reportedly the top brass at Universal Studios came in and said Well, sons of bitches over 20-century fox, they think they're the only ones who can make a movie about talking robots and all kinds of electronic doodads.

231
0:26:21,740 --> 0:26:22,963
Speaker 4: Boys, here's a blank check.

232
0:26:23,023 --> 0:26:32,580
Speaker 4: Go make a hit movie with gizmos and doodads from the future that we can put on T-shirts and lunchboxes and Halloween masks, and make little dolls and bullshit with ridiculously high margins.

233
0:26:32,640 --> 0:26:33,262
Speaker 4: Who wants to get rich boys?

234
0:26:33,282 --> 0:26:33,483
Speaker 4: Who wants?

235
0:26:34,366 --> 0:26:35,209
Speaker 2: to get rich.

236
0:26:35,640 --> 0:26:40,978
Speaker 2: Of course it was a huge success and people mostly kids they really liked R2-D2 and C3PO in that movie.

237
0:26:41,078 --> 0:26:45,620
Speaker 2: Among other things, Attaching Andy Kaufman to the project gave the movie a little extra energy.

238
0:26:46,424 --> 0:26:55,620
Speaker 2: Kaufman agreed to the project for one reason and one reason alone he wanted to make a Tony Clifton movie that he wrote with partner Bob Zamuda.

239
0:26:56,202 --> 0:27:00,620
Speaker 2: Studios weren't sure that Kaufman and his alter ego were strong enough to carry a feature film.

240
0:27:00,901 --> 0:27:06,620
Speaker 2: Sure, playing the lovable mechanic on a TV sitcom was one thing, but being a leading man in a movie was another.

241
0:27:07,001 --> 0:27:24,115
Speaker 2: Heart Beeps comes out and it tanks miserably, so the Tony Clifton movie was destined to never be In that film it was going to be a biographic story of Tony Clifton's life where at the end Tony Clifton dies of cancer at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.

242
0:27:24,900 --> 0:27:37,580
Speaker 2: Two years after the release of Heart Beeps in 1983, Andy Kaufman went in for a series of tests at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where he was diagnosed with large cell carcinoma of the lung.

243
0:27:38,321 --> 0:27:47,395
Speaker 2: Kaufman initially treated his illness with natural medicines and a diet of fruits and vegetables, but when he finally opted for radiotherapy the cancer had spread from his lungs to his brain.

244
0:27:48,061 --> 0:27:57,235
Speaker 2: Kaufman appeared at the premiere of my Breakfast with Blassey in 1984 with a mohawk to help offset the effects of his radiation treatments.

245
0:27:57,760 --> 0:28:04,033
Speaker 2: Then, on May 16, 1984, Andy Kaufman died at the age of 35.

246
0:28:05,463 --> 0:28:05,884
Speaker 2: Or did he?

247
0:28:07,821 --> 0:28:20,620
Speaker 2: When Andy Kaufman announced that he had cancer, friends and family close to him were suspicious that this might be another piece of performance art, Another show where Andy was the intended audience, watching the reactions of others for his own entertainment.

248
0:28:21,142 --> 0:28:25,560
Speaker 2: Kaufman regularly discussed faking his death as one of the greatest hoaxes he could ever pull off.

249
0:28:26,381 --> 0:28:35,435
Speaker 2: Bob Zmuda said in 1982 that Kaufman called him around four in the morning telling him he had decided to fake his death and insisting that Bob come meet him right away.

250
0:28:37,743 --> 0:28:38,844
Speaker 2: Zmuda met Kaufman.

251
0:28:48,221 --> 0:29:00,620
Speaker 2: Zmuda claims that Kaufman told him 30 years was the time frame for this hoax and that Lynn Margolese, the woman Zmuda identified as the love of Andy's life, would not be involved in this.

252
0:29:01,503 --> 0:29:12,580
Speaker 2: In Zmuda's account of this plan, Kaufman found someone who resembled him, who was in fact dying of cancer, and over time Kaufman lost weight and shaved his head to resemble this body double.

253
0:29:13,642 --> 0:29:29,351
Speaker 2: When the other person died, a switch was made with the double and that person was buried as Kaufman and Kaufman was spirited away to go start a new life, but this story may be a hoax perpetrated by Bob Zmuda.

254
0:29:29,692 --> 0:29:33,620
Speaker 2: He was, after all, Kaufman's accomplice in so many of these elaborate schemes.

255
0:29:34,201 --> 0:29:43,495
Speaker 2: Andy Kaufman's early death and eccentric legacy of entertainment, combined with the rumors that he might still be alive, elevated him as an entertainment and comedy icon.

256
0:29:43,720 --> 0:29:47,470
Speaker 2: Tony Clifton continued to perform at the comedy store after Kaufman's death.

257
0:29:47,851 --> 0:29:51,600
Speaker 2: Many suspected it was always Bob Zmuda, dressed up in the famed insult comic outfit.

258
0:29:52,581 --> 0:30:01,235
Speaker 2: Over the years since his death, rumors of Andy Kaufman's return began to increase, especially as the 30 year anniversary of his death grew closer.

259
0:30:01,840 --> 0:30:14,196
Speaker 2: In 2013, at the Andy Kaufman Awards, a ceremony held annually at the Gotham Comedy Club, Michael Kaufman, Andy's brother, took the stage and introduced a woman claiming to be Andy's adult daughter.

260
0:30:14,740 --> 0:30:20,870
Speaker 2: Michael Kaufman stated that years earlier, he found an essay written by Andy which included how Andy would fake his death.

261
0:30:21,131 --> 0:30:26,580
Speaker 2: In the essay, there were instructions for Michael to meet Andy at a restaurant on Christmas Eve in 1999.

262
0:30:27,441 --> 0:30:32,667
Speaker 2: Michael did so, and a man he did not know approached and handed him a typed letter.

263
0:30:33,268 --> 0:30:39,216
Speaker 2: This letter, allegedly from Andy Kaufman, was read by Michael in front of the crowd at the Gotham Comedy Club.

264
0:30:39,840 --> 0:30:45,453
Speaker 2: In it, Andy claimed that everything was great in his life and he just wanted to get away from being Andy Kaufman.

265
0:30:45,861 --> 0:30:50,972
Speaker 2: The letter stated that Kaufman had fallen in love and now had a daughter who was 24 years old.

266
0:30:51,620 --> 0:30:59,494
Speaker 2: At this point a woman appeared on stage being introduced as McCoy, a name that Kaufman used when checking into hospitals.

267
0:31:00,121 --> 0:31:08,234
Speaker 2: Ed Kavanaugh, showroom manager of the Gotham Comedy Club, said you could see by the look on Michael's face that it had an emotional impact on him.

268
0:31:08,620 --> 0:31:18,195
Speaker 2: When asked whether or not Kavanaugh believed the woman's story about being Andy's daughter, Kavanaugh said I don't know whether somebody is perpetrating something on Michael or not.

269
0:31:18,640 --> 0:31:20,382
Speaker 2: I'm truly 50-50 on this one.

270
0:31:20,842 --> 0:31:26,328
Speaker 2: Al Paranello, a lifelong friend of Kaufman, who also produces the awards ceremony.

271
0:31:26,729 --> 0:31:40,368
Speaker 2: He was convinced of the story's veracity, even though he was one of the few people who attended Kaufman's funeral and actually saw his body, Because the funeral had a closed casket, with only family and close friends seeing Kaufman's body.

272
0:31:41,109 --> 0:31:45,995
Speaker 2: However, the 30th anniversary of his death came and went and Andy Kaufman did not return.

273
0:31:46,680 --> 0:31:48,685
Speaker 2: Is Andy Kaufman dead or alive?

274
0:31:49,648 --> 0:31:51,131
Speaker 2: Your guess is as good as mine.

275
0:31:51,860 --> 0:31:59,446
Speaker 2: Andy Kaufman was slash is an entertainer who intentionally blurred the lines between reality and fiction.

276
0:32:00,046 --> 0:32:14,417
Speaker 2: He had a passion for making the audience love him, only to confuse them and then anger them, then surprise them with a finale where people would leap to their feet and applause as they realized this was all an elaborate emotional ride, with Andy Kaufman leading them every step of the way.

277
0:32:15,160 --> 0:32:33,177
Speaker 2: Shortly after Michael Kaufman's presentation at the Gotham Comedy Club with Andy's alleged adult daughter, Michael Kaufman appeared on the cable news channel CNN with anchor Jake Tapper, where it was revealed that it was impossible to reach Kaufman's daughter and that he now believed he was victim of an elaborate hoax.

278
0:32:34,582 --> 0:32:39,533
Speaker 2: But what about Heartbeams, the final film featuring Andy Kaufman not as himself?

279
0:32:40,195 --> 0:32:40,896
Speaker 2: Is it any good?

280
0:32:40,956 --> 0:32:42,620
Speaker 2: We know the answer to that question from earlier.

281
0:32:43,021 --> 0:32:43,963
Speaker 2: Of course it's not any good.

282
0:32:44,003 --> 0:32:46,389
Speaker 2: Andy Kaufman was going to refund everybody's money.

283
0:32:46,409 --> 0:32:48,161
Speaker 2: We went to see this thing, but you know what?

284
0:32:48,201 --> 0:32:48,442
Speaker 2: We need?

285
0:32:48,462 --> 0:32:55,560
Speaker 2: To get Mr Bo Ranzel in here to discuss this movie from start to finish, to see what exactly makes this movie so refund-worthy.

286
0:32:56,501 --> 0:32:58,944
Speaker 2: Ladies and gentlemen, Aquas and Vows.

287
0:32:58,964 --> 0:33:06,915
Speaker 2: It's 1981's, long forgotten for multiple reasons, Heartbeams.

288
0:33:08,601 --> 0:33:09,381
Speaker 3: Thank you very much.

289
0:33:28,341 --> 0:33:29,963
Speaker 2: And welcome to Pick Six Movies.

290
0:33:30,043 --> 0:33:34,793
Speaker 2: I'm Chad Cooper and I'm joined by the man who always makes my heart go beep, mr Bo.

291
0:33:34,833 --> 0:33:35,606
Speaker 2: Randall Bo.

292
0:33:35,667 --> 0:33:38,345
Speaker 2: How are you doing today, Chad Bo?

293
0:33:38,446 --> 0:33:45,367
Speaker 1: I'm just a little bit of a fan, you know.

294
0:33:45,387 --> 0:33:52,276
Speaker 1: We toss around phrases like the worst movie we've ever done, and every now and again one comes down the pipe that truly may be the worst thing we've ever done.

295
0:33:52,765 --> 0:33:54,131
Speaker 2: It's in the top five.

296
0:33:54,625 --> 0:34:04,730
Speaker 1: You know, we do movies that are poorly scripted and they're poorly shot and they're poorly edited and the music's no good, but there's like one or two little things that make it at least interesting.

297
0:34:05,605 --> 0:34:15,917
Speaker 1: Foul's Love of the Damned is a terrible, offensive gross movie, and yet the performance by Jeffrey Combs is so wackadood that I can at least enjoy that.

298
0:34:16,385 --> 0:34:19,629
Speaker 2: This is a tough one to get through and it's 74 Minutes Long.

299
0:34:19,669 --> 0:34:20,250
Speaker 2: Which Boâ¦.

300
0:34:24,225 --> 0:34:31,534
Speaker 2: We have a new Grand Champion of the shortest movie ever reviewed on Pick Six Movies, taking that title from its pat, which was 78 Minutes Long.

301
0:34:31,865 --> 0:34:35,894
Speaker 2: Congratulations to Heart Beeps, which was also nominated for an Academy Award.

302
0:34:37,825 --> 0:34:41,252
Speaker 1: But Chad let me ask you this this is sort of like the Heat Index.

303
0:34:41,785 --> 0:34:47,831
Speaker 1: The length index of a movie isn't just how long is the runtime, how long does it feel?

304
0:34:48,427 --> 0:34:50,694
Speaker 2: This one feels like good 212.

305
0:34:51,005 --> 0:34:52,652
Speaker 1: This feels over two hours.

306
0:34:52,965 --> 0:34:58,568
Speaker 1: There's an hour of just human misery that pads out this film Look.

307
0:34:59,049 --> 0:35:00,574
Speaker 4: I was going to say the problem with this movie.

308
0:35:01,565 --> 0:35:02,951
Speaker 1: There are many problems with this movie.

309
0:35:03,265 --> 0:35:10,575
Speaker 1: I have never watched a movie that felt so pointless and aimless and by the end of it I was like I don't know what I was supposed to learn from any of that.

310
0:35:11,166 --> 0:35:18,113
Speaker 2: I chose this movie to kick off this season for three reasons For the money, for the glory and for the fun, but mostly for the money.

311
0:35:18,294 --> 0:35:20,641
Speaker 2: No, number one, it's 74.

312
0:35:20,661 --> 0:35:20,905
Speaker 4: Minutes Long.

313
0:35:20,925 --> 0:35:24,495
Speaker 2: Number two I'd never seen this movie but often thought about it.

314
0:35:24,765 --> 0:35:31,245
Speaker 2: And number three it was the only way we are ever going to discuss the life of Andy Kaufman on this podcast.

315
0:35:31,666 --> 0:35:36,094
Speaker 1: I understand all of that and it wasn't worth it.

316
0:35:36,385 --> 0:35:41,916
Speaker 2: I was thinking about Andy Kaufman and I was trying to find someone.

317
0:35:42,117 --> 0:35:50,918
Speaker 2: If you don't know who Andy Kaufman is or was, is there anyone today that comes close to what Andy Kaufman did when he was in the bright spotlight?

318
0:35:51,105 --> 0:36:07,717
Speaker 2: The only person that came even close to it was Nathan Fielder on his shows Nathan For you, and even more so on his HBO show the Rehearsal, because Nathan Fielder is someone who blurs the line between what is real and what isn't on both of those shows.

319
0:36:07,977 --> 0:36:08,759
Speaker 1: I would agree with that.

320
0:36:08,865 --> 0:36:12,976
Speaker 1: I think a weird cousin of that is Tom Green.

321
0:36:13,667 --> 0:36:15,433
Speaker 1: Like, tom Green is way too extreme.

322
0:36:15,845 --> 0:36:19,555
Speaker 1: He's way too situated in the world of pure comedy.

323
0:36:19,925 --> 0:36:20,848
Speaker 2: And shock humor.

324
0:36:21,089 --> 0:36:21,371
Speaker 1: Right.

325
0:36:22,165 --> 0:36:27,478
Speaker 2: And when you're in the neighborhood of jackass, being over the top and being shockingly unpredictable.

326
0:36:27,725 --> 0:36:43,212
Speaker 2: I think that Nathan Fielder does such a great job of playing a character on his show where he manipulates the people around him and then he's the puppet master, but then, as the audience, he's creating the show, so he's manipulating us as we watch it.

327
0:36:43,412 --> 0:36:43,653
Speaker 1: Yes.

328
0:36:43,833 --> 0:36:47,473
Speaker 2: It's so multi-layered, and that was really what Andy Kaufman did.

329
0:36:47,845 --> 0:36:52,114
Speaker 1: There's never been someone quite like Andy Kaufman before or since.

330
0:36:52,676 --> 0:36:56,995
Speaker 1: No, because he truly loved the medium of television.

331
0:36:57,285 --> 0:37:04,476
Speaker 1: He lived in a world of his own creation and he basically made reality match that world.

332
0:37:04,725 --> 0:37:10,518
Speaker 1: And, as you said in your introduction, if the person he was entertaining was Andy Kaufman, that was okay.

333
0:37:10,965 --> 0:37:23,275
Speaker 1: You know, that was enough of an audience for him to continue with whatever shtick he had, and that's what makes him kind of unique as a performer, because he didn't seem to have that gaping hole that a lot of performers have.

334
0:37:23,485 --> 0:37:24,849
Speaker 2: I need the audience to love me.

335
0:37:25,010 --> 0:37:26,675
Speaker 1: Yeah, kaufman didn't have that.

336
0:37:27,285 --> 0:37:32,938
Speaker 1: Kaufman had a need for the audience to experience something, but not necessarily to like him.

337
0:37:33,085 --> 0:37:38,138
Speaker 1: In fact, if they hated him, that was just as good and sometimes preferable.

338
0:37:38,205 --> 0:37:59,234
Speaker 2: I didn't talk too much about the Milos Forman film man on the Moon starring Jim Carrey, and I know that you're not a big Jim Carrey fan, and even less so after watching that documentary about Jim Carrey playing Andy Kaufman with all of that method acting and you know bullshit, yes, yeah, nonsense that he went through Great movie, though, if you don't know much about Andy Kaufman, it's a pretty damn good movie.

339
0:37:59,445 --> 0:38:06,277
Speaker 2: I can't imagine how difficult it must be to play someone who is so enigmatic.

340
0:38:06,538 --> 0:38:07,479
Speaker 1: It's a great performance.

341
0:38:07,605 --> 0:38:09,111
Speaker 1: Thematically it's wonderful.

342
0:38:09,465 --> 0:38:12,215
Speaker 1: I love Danny DeVito in that movie.

343
0:38:12,626 --> 0:38:14,651
Speaker 1: I think he's wonderful in that as well.

344
0:38:14,932 --> 0:38:15,694
Speaker 1: It's just terrific.

345
0:38:15,894 --> 0:38:16,777
Speaker 1: It's a terrific movie.

346
0:38:17,005 --> 0:38:18,771
Speaker 1: Courtney Love is even really good in that, yeah.

347
0:38:19,685 --> 0:38:27,836
Speaker 2: I didn't get to bullshit that Jim Carrey didn't get some sort of Academy Award nomination for that, even if he didn't win, because he's really good in that.

348
0:38:28,005 --> 0:38:36,440
Speaker 1: Despite how he got there, I still, you know, I always think back to that old story about Dustin Hoffman and Laurence Olivier, and it's called Acting Dear Boy.

349
0:38:36,661 --> 0:38:46,075
Speaker 2: you know, when I hear stories of people acting like an asshole on sets, Daniel Day Lewis, when he became Abraham Lincoln, was walking around confused by cell phones and shit.

350
0:38:46,235 --> 0:38:47,097
Speaker 2: You know what it is.

351
0:38:47,357 --> 0:38:48,339
Speaker 2: Stop knocking off.

352
0:38:49,170 --> 0:38:51,485
Speaker 2: You wear makeup and a wig and a costume.

353
0:38:51,748 --> 0:38:53,284
Speaker 2: You're going to go back and order room service.

354
0:38:53,586 --> 0:38:55,733
Speaker 2: You're not living in a log cab and jackass.

355
0:38:56,025 --> 0:39:04,894
Speaker 1: There are actors I love and adore and respect, and anytime I hear that someone is like well on set they never allowed us to call them by his real name.

356
0:39:05,005 --> 0:39:09,485
Speaker 1: We had to address them as the character's name my respect for that actor goes down like four notches.

357
0:39:09,846 --> 0:39:12,034
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're like oh, that's a real asshole move.

358
0:39:12,165 --> 0:39:14,052
Speaker 2: Like you're doing a job, just do the job.

359
0:39:14,385 --> 0:39:15,146
Speaker 2: You won the lottery.

360
0:39:15,367 --> 0:39:16,148
Speaker 2: You're in a movie.

361
0:39:16,189 --> 0:39:17,371
Speaker 2: You're a movie star.

362
0:39:17,671 --> 0:39:19,034
Speaker 2: Yeah, do your job.

363
0:39:19,255 --> 0:39:20,577
Speaker 1: Be happy, be grateful.

364
0:39:21,525 --> 0:39:31,889
Speaker 1: Like, as weird as Tom Cruise is, you think he's walking around the set of Mission Impossible 12 being like call me Ethan, of course not, because he's doing a job he's more worried about.

365
0:39:31,929 --> 0:39:36,328
Speaker 1: Like, I'm going to get shot out of a cannon, this time directly into a brick wall.

366
0:39:36,429 --> 0:39:38,375
Speaker 1: It's going to be a stunt no one will see coming.

367
0:39:38,585 --> 0:39:42,836
Speaker 2: If man on the Moon comes on TV I will get sucked into man on the Moon.

368
0:39:43,045 --> 0:39:45,091
Speaker 2: It's one of those quicksand movies for me.

369
0:39:45,212 --> 0:39:45,433
Speaker 1: Sure.

370
0:39:46,325 --> 0:39:48,872
Speaker 2: And I also added to that list Hoosiers Joe versus the Volcano.

371
0:39:48,992 --> 0:39:53,432
Speaker 2: The Dark Jean Lean Limited Sent of a Woman Back to the Future Searching for Robbie Fisher and Jaws.

372
0:39:53,994 --> 0:39:54,916
Speaker 1: Sneakers is on there.

373
0:39:54,956 --> 0:40:06,695
Speaker 1: For me, Sneakers is a good one If I hear someone say I'm interested in all kinds of astronomy and I hear that from another room, I immediately go in, and I've just buckled in for the next hour.

374
0:40:07,125 --> 0:40:08,449
Speaker 1: That is a God tier Stephen.

375
0:40:08,469 --> 0:40:09,954
Speaker 1: Tobolowski performance.

376
0:40:10,505 --> 0:40:11,630
Speaker 1: And Ben Kingsley too.

377
0:40:12,325 --> 0:40:18,056
Speaker 2: Robert Redford, sidney, portier, river Phoenix Dan Ackroyd Mary McDonald.

378
0:40:18,196 --> 0:40:22,093
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's incredible Again, we could sit here and quote sneakers all night, chad.

379
0:40:22,185 --> 0:40:24,653
Speaker 2: I know, but let's just talk about heartbeats, all right.

380
0:40:25,325 --> 0:40:30,096
Speaker 2: So our movie starts off and we see this pyramid shaped black robot car with a red police light on top.

381
0:40:30,745 --> 0:40:33,915
Speaker 2: It reminded me of the deathmobile that burst out of that cake in the finale of Animal House.

382
0:40:34,345 --> 0:40:38,336
Speaker 1: It's a cross between that and a Dalek from Doctor who.

383
0:40:38,846 --> 0:40:40,573
Speaker 2: If you say so, I'll take your word for it.

384
0:40:40,845 --> 0:40:42,750
Speaker 1: Don't pretend you haven't seen what they're everywhere.

385
0:40:42,770 --> 0:40:43,091
Speaker 1: Chad.

386
0:40:45,565 --> 0:40:56,936
Speaker 2: This police robot car is called Crime Buster and it appears up over the small ridge in the woods and it says my name is Crime Buster 0719.

387
0:40:57,217 --> 0:40:57,798
Speaker 2: I'm a cop.

388
0:40:58,105 --> 0:41:02,316
Speaker 2: I contain one million microchips, thousands of circuits and a couple of noobswiles.

389
0:41:02,985 --> 0:41:09,972
Speaker 2: Then we get some like real nice 80s motherboards sparking and you're like, oh, he says he's top of the line, but something's a little off of this guy.

390
0:41:10,585 --> 0:41:16,913
Speaker 2: And then Crime Buster barrels through the trees knocking over some small pines and he says I'm the deluxe model.

391
0:41:17,125 --> 0:41:19,779
Speaker 2: And then we see a couple of skunks hopping about.

392
0:41:19,799 --> 0:41:23,325
Speaker 2: And then Crime Buster sticks out this thin metal retractable arm and gives it a sniff.

393
0:41:23,405 --> 0:41:26,513
Speaker 2: There's like a little bulb on the end and he goes yeah.

394
0:41:28,605 --> 0:41:37,756
Speaker 2: Crime Buster then reveals about 10 guns of varying level of destruction and he says okay, shorty, no sudden moves or I'll shoot before anything can happen.

395
0:41:38,185 --> 0:41:44,158
Speaker 2: Crime Buster just fires on this tree stump and it explodes in a ball of smoke and fire.

396
0:41:44,365 --> 0:41:51,374
Speaker 2: I've not seen this type of explosion in the woods bow since Michael Kelly shot that grizzly bear with a bazooka and grizzly back in season 16, episode one.

397
0:41:52,045 --> 0:41:53,630
Speaker 1: Talk about a better movie Chad.

398
0:41:53,670 --> 0:41:54,372
Speaker 2: Shockingly.

399
0:41:54,472 --> 0:41:58,714
Speaker 2: So yes, the movie is so much better than Heart Beeps.

400
0:41:59,005 --> 0:42:04,316
Speaker 1: A million percent For one thing, it's got a thousand percent more Richard Jekyll, and that's what you want in a movie.

401
0:42:04,865 --> 0:42:05,789
Speaker 2: You know we're going to get to this later.

402
0:42:06,545 --> 0:42:11,417
Speaker 2: How much heavy lifting does the soundtrack do on this film?

403
0:42:11,745 --> 0:42:16,817
Speaker 2: John Williams score is the only redeemable thing in this film.

404
0:42:17,225 --> 0:42:21,590
Speaker 2: It's like picking the raisins out of some weird coconut salad Like this is edible.

405
0:42:21,905 --> 0:42:28,452
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that is the only thing to kind of recommend it and it's got some moments it's not enough to recommend this movie Bo.

406
0:42:29,265 --> 0:42:30,772
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, you should stay.

407
0:42:30,825 --> 0:42:32,913
Speaker 2: Oh, first off, we didn't pay for this movie.

408
0:42:33,005 --> 0:42:34,130
Speaker 2: We didn't buy this movie.

409
0:42:34,325 --> 0:42:41,914
Speaker 2: We watched some janky bootleg version on YouTube, which is available to you, if you know you have literally nothing else better to do in your life.

410
0:42:42,466 --> 0:42:42,626
Speaker 1: There's.

411
0:42:42,747 --> 0:42:44,393
Speaker 1: It also exists on Plex.

412
0:42:44,885 --> 0:42:45,910
Speaker 2: I don't know, what that means.

413
0:42:46,225 --> 0:42:55,811
Speaker 1: I know you don't, but if you are a Plex subscriber or you use Plex as a media server, and is that like crackles, sad, distant cousin.

414
0:42:56,165 --> 0:43:00,709
Speaker 1: So technically Plex is a media server, like if you have a bunch of movies on a hard drive.

415
0:43:01,050 --> 0:43:09,897
Speaker 1: Plex stores, it does the encoding and you can download the app on various devices and it'll play your movies from your storage device.

416
0:43:10,485 --> 0:43:22,674
Speaker 1: But in the later years Plex got a little big for their bridges and they started adding streaming movies to the service so you can not only watch what's on your hard drive, you can watch other stuff that they've got streaming on their service.

417
0:43:22,965 --> 0:43:25,934
Speaker 1: One of the things that they have streaming on their service is heartbeaps.

418
0:43:26,305 --> 0:43:30,401
Speaker 2: So Crime Buster rolls off after blowing up this skunk and he shouts off.

419
0:43:30,582 --> 0:43:35,736
Speaker 2: My job is to keep the community safe on the land, in the sea and in the air.

420
0:43:36,005 --> 0:43:43,051
Speaker 2: And then Crime Buster fires a bottle rocket into the air and then becomes an amphibious vehicle, wading out into the water.

421
0:43:43,251 --> 0:43:43,813
Speaker 2: Fade to black.

422
0:43:44,715 --> 0:43:53,394
Speaker 1: Yes, and along with like that electronic score that you mentioned, playing to do as much heavy lifting as it can to make this movie feel like a movie.

423
0:43:53,685 --> 0:44:08,593
Speaker 2: We fade in on the Universal Studios logo and you're like huh, we get some nice 80 synthesizer outer space music, followed by the opening credits which, bo, I did not hate because they are overlaid on the actual movie as it began, so I didn't pay attention to what was written in words.

424
0:44:08,765 --> 0:44:16,790
Speaker 2: And here we see Randy Quaid and his older gruff warehouse working partner, max I think they're also drinking buddies In fact I know the drinking buddies.

425
0:44:16,970 --> 0:44:26,595
Speaker 2: I think they're alcoholics In fact I know they're alcoholics and they're riding on this lift like a scissor lift and it's carrying Val, the robot played by Andy Kaufman.

426
0:44:27,605 --> 0:44:29,773
Speaker 2: And Max tells Val, he says, hey, turn your head around.

427
0:44:30,085 --> 0:44:36,618
Speaker 2: And then Val's head it's on backwards and it spins around and we get to see Andy Kaufman in his full makeup for the first time.

428
0:44:36,691 --> 0:44:40,571
Speaker 2: Which my question for you, bo, is Andy Kaufman in blackface in this movie?

429
0:44:40,785 --> 0:44:42,692
Speaker 1: I think technically it would be brown face.

430
0:44:43,125 --> 0:44:45,553
Speaker 2: Like copper face, but still copper face.

431
0:44:45,965 --> 0:44:47,571
Speaker 1: It's definitely questionable.

432
0:44:48,465 --> 0:44:50,512
Speaker 1: It's definitely co-opting robot culture yeah.

433
0:44:51,225 --> 0:44:55,196
Speaker 2: But you know, the crazy thing is it's not the most offensive and disturbing thing in this film.

434
0:44:55,685 --> 0:45:04,653
Speaker 2: The fact that you can be in brown face to some degree as a white man and nobody talks about that means that your film was way more problematic.

435
0:45:06,905 --> 0:45:12,565
Speaker 1: I suppose this is as good a time as any to say the makeup work is good.

436
0:45:13,147 --> 0:45:15,052
Speaker 1: It's weird because there are.

437
0:45:15,272 --> 0:45:27,145
Speaker 1: You can absolutely tell what part of the robot is a prosthetic effect and you know, we're blending the actors mouths and eyes and so forth in, so it's not convincing.

438
0:45:27,868 --> 0:45:31,835
Speaker 1: No no no, but if it were in a stage production you would think that was really good.

439
0:45:32,145 --> 0:45:35,054
Speaker 1: But being in a movie, you're like, eh, it's okay.

440
0:45:35,485 --> 0:45:39,315
Speaker 2: This was, I think, the first year that they were given out awards for special effects makeup.

441
0:45:40,046 --> 0:45:41,851
Speaker 2: So you know, the bar wasn't even set.

442
0:45:41,871 --> 0:45:42,673
Speaker 2: There was no bar.

443
0:45:42,733 --> 0:45:43,375
Speaker 2: This was the bar.

444
0:45:43,985 --> 0:45:47,215
Speaker 1: Well, like you said, they had to do it for American werewolf.

445
0:45:47,305 --> 0:45:50,885
Speaker 1: In fact, I think American werewolf was the reason that category was created.

446
0:45:50,925 --> 0:45:51,788
Speaker 2: They were like Jesus Christ.

447
0:45:51,808 --> 0:45:52,370
Speaker 2: Did you see that?

448
0:45:52,390 --> 0:45:53,053
Speaker 2: That needs an award?

449
0:45:53,485 --> 0:45:54,469
Speaker 2: We don't have any awards to give them.

450
0:45:54,669 --> 0:45:55,473
Speaker 2: Make up a category.

451
0:45:55,725 --> 0:46:00,197
Speaker 1: Yeah, we've got to do something, because that they, that guy, turned into a fucking werewolf right on screen.

452
0:46:00,646 --> 0:46:13,959
Speaker 2: Now Stan Winston was a couple of years removed from the work he did on the movie the whiz, and the costumes for Val and Aqua look a lot like Nipsey Russell's makeup as the tin man in the whiz.

453
0:46:14,345 --> 0:46:16,091
Speaker 1: If you say so, I've never seen the whiz.

454
0:46:16,472 --> 0:46:18,329
Speaker 1: Shame on you, shame on me, chad.

455
0:46:19,145 --> 0:46:27,017
Speaker 2: Diana Ross, Nipsey Russell, Michael Jackson, Richard Pryor, Eason, Down the Road.

456
0:46:27,719 --> 0:46:34,407
Speaker 2: It's so good it's better than Return to Oz, a movie with a creepy robot that I considered doing that for this season Spoilers.

457
0:46:34,447 --> 0:46:35,170
Speaker 2: I'm not doing it.

458
0:46:35,445 --> 0:46:36,207
Speaker 1: Is Return to Oz.

459
0:46:36,228 --> 0:46:38,455
Speaker 1: That's the one with a young Farooza Balk right.

460
0:46:38,505 --> 0:46:42,590
Speaker 2: Correct where it starts off, where she's getting electroshock therapy, that's a weird movie.

461
0:46:42,965 --> 0:46:45,136
Speaker 2: There were a lot of filmmakers when we were growing up.

462
0:46:45,157 --> 0:46:48,624
Speaker 2: They were like how could we psychologically damage children as much as possible?

463
0:46:49,407 --> 0:46:50,330
Speaker 2: I'm like, wow, look at this.

464
0:46:50,551 --> 0:46:50,953
Speaker 2: Yeah.

465
0:46:51,705 --> 0:46:53,813
Speaker 1: Hey, here's a wonderful fantasy film called the Neverending Story.

466
0:46:54,245 --> 0:46:57,833
Speaker 1: Also, let's watch a horse sink into quicksand and fucking die in it.

467
0:46:58,094 --> 0:46:58,795
Speaker 1: Does it come back?

468
0:46:59,156 --> 0:46:59,958
Speaker 1: Absolutely not.

469
0:47:00,145 --> 0:47:01,831
Speaker 2: You know how adorable ET is?

470
0:47:01,971 --> 0:47:05,405
Speaker 2: Yeah Well, what if we kill him and turn him ashy gray and just throw him in a ditch?

471
0:47:06,028 --> 0:47:06,891
Speaker 2: That sounds pretty good.

472
0:47:07,265 --> 0:47:13,257
Speaker 1: What if he clutches at the air, reaching for his child friend who is also by?

473
0:47:13,277 --> 0:47:14,827
Speaker 2: the way Deathly ill.

474
0:47:17,427 --> 0:47:21,797
Speaker 2: So Randy Quaid says to Val, I see why you're here, shit is full.

475
0:47:22,485 --> 0:47:23,711
Speaker 2: No, he says, I see why you're here.

476
0:47:23,965 --> 0:47:26,553
Speaker 2: You have second degree appendage laceration.

477
0:47:26,593 --> 0:47:27,275
Speaker 2: How'd that happen?

478
0:47:28,086 --> 0:47:50,848
Speaker 2: And Val says in that serial accident, sir, I was waiting outside the programming building as instructed, but sanitation engineer Russell Percival well told me to quote get your ass up and over here, and I helped robots lifting refuse containers, and one fell on my foot severing my ambulatory circuits.

479
0:47:51,986 --> 0:47:53,572
Speaker 2: And in this exchange we learned two things.

480
0:47:54,065 --> 0:47:59,430
Speaker 2: One, the character Val can imitate other people's voices, which you might think is going to be important later in the movie.

481
0:47:59,691 --> 0:48:00,092
Speaker 2: It's not.

482
0:48:00,785 --> 0:48:09,754
Speaker 2: And second, we learned that Andy Kaufman basically had one character that he could do, the foreign man care Right, because he's basically doing Latka's voice through this whole film.

483
0:48:10,426 --> 0:48:12,673
Speaker 1: It's sort of Latka without the accent.

484
0:48:12,733 --> 0:48:13,905
Speaker 1: Part of it it's.

485
0:48:13,986 --> 0:48:14,808
Speaker 4: Latka light.

486
0:48:15,370 --> 0:48:28,365
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, and wisely, charlie and Maggs take him up to this shelf and then just leave him there to get away from this thing as quickly as possible, because it's both creepy and irritating in equal measure.

487
0:48:28,766 --> 0:48:32,556
Speaker 2: I want to talk a little bit about Val's appearance before we move on, yes, please.

488
0:48:32,965 --> 0:48:35,834
Speaker 2: He's wearing this suit that looks to be made of plastic.

489
0:48:36,285 --> 0:48:37,751
Speaker 2: It's got gray and white pinstripes.

490
0:48:38,125 --> 0:48:40,472
Speaker 2: And, as we mentioned, his face is this light brown.

491
0:48:40,532 --> 0:48:44,493
Speaker 2: That's problematic and we talked about these like face prosthetics.

492
0:48:44,605 --> 0:49:02,971
Speaker 2: It kind of looks like he's recovering from third degree burns and Val's hair is this plastic sculpted hairdry that looks like a spirit Halloween wig for Reverend Lovejoy and he's got his bow tie and he moves like every human shaped robot in every movie ever.

493
0:49:03,325 --> 0:49:04,810
Speaker 2: It's a lot of bending at the joint.

494
0:49:04,951 --> 0:49:07,271
Speaker 2: It's me, but I get it.

495
0:49:07,465 --> 0:49:08,349
Speaker 2: That's how we know he's a robot.

496
0:49:08,685 --> 0:49:10,311
Speaker 1: Stiff legs, stiff armed Right.

497
0:49:11,306 --> 0:49:15,176
Speaker 1: It's just, I guess, sort of a visual shorthand for IMA robot.

498
0:49:15,445 --> 0:49:17,433
Speaker 2: I mentioned these two jokers in the intro.

499
0:49:17,525 --> 0:49:18,997
Speaker 2: You remember Shields and Yarnel?

500
0:49:19,299 --> 0:49:35,793
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, of course I thought they were like brother and sister, but I think they were just like friends that were mimes and they hooked up with Marcel Marceau and in the late seventies and eighties they were all over TV and they would pretend to be like windup dolls or robot mimes were on TV a lot when we were younger.

501
0:49:36,707 --> 0:49:40,597
Speaker 2: There was so much crazy crap on television when we were kids.

502
0:49:40,985 --> 0:49:43,985
Speaker 2: It was like the internet before the internet, without all of the pornography.

503
0:49:44,266 --> 0:49:47,111
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was really weird, and the moment Sean stuff was weirder.

504
0:49:47,826 --> 0:49:48,127
Speaker 2: Now moment.

505
0:49:48,147 --> 0:49:55,134
Speaker 2: Sean's was where they would put toilet paper or like clay and like yeah, yeah, yeah, stretch out their heads and it was performance art.

506
0:49:55,365 --> 0:49:56,911
Speaker 2: That was what I grew up watching.

507
0:49:57,205 --> 0:50:00,629
Speaker 2: It was wild man, Wayland Flowers and Madam.

508
0:50:00,889 --> 0:50:03,977
Speaker 2: That old lady puppet terrified me as a child.

509
0:50:04,245 --> 0:50:05,872
Speaker 2: That was the thing of nightmares for me.

510
0:50:06,165 --> 0:50:08,995
Speaker 1: Wayland Flowers and Madam did not freak me out.

511
0:50:09,165 --> 0:50:11,433
Speaker 1: I was mildly sexually attracted to Madam.

512
0:50:11,865 --> 0:50:12,910
Speaker 2: That's horrifying.

513
0:50:13,065 --> 0:50:14,711
Speaker 1: I liked older women from a young age.

514
0:50:14,751 --> 0:50:15,032
Speaker 2: Chad.

515
0:50:16,205 --> 0:50:20,493
Speaker 2: The ever presence of Bigfoot from our youth was crazy.

516
0:50:20,934 --> 0:50:28,598
Speaker 2: The Bermuda Triangle, Loch Ness Monster those were all things that were widely discussed in books, newspapers and television specials.

517
0:50:28,999 --> 0:50:30,985
Speaker 2: This movie is so terrible, Isn't it insane?

518
0:50:31,586 --> 0:50:37,370
Speaker 2: Andy Kaufman was doing impressions of Elvis Presley before being an Elvis impersonator was a thing.

519
0:50:37,545 --> 0:50:39,974
Speaker 2: Now it's Kitchy and it's Vegas and it's all that.

520
0:50:40,145 --> 0:50:55,715
Speaker 2: He was doing this as a pioneer in the field of impersonating this famous singer and as obsessed as he was with him and the legacy that Elvis left, intentionally or not, more not than yes of is he dead or is he alive?

521
0:50:56,005 --> 0:51:00,817
Speaker 2: It's wild how much overlap there was between these two performers.

522
0:51:01,245 --> 0:51:06,538
Speaker 1: Although there is not an Andy Kaufman as Graceland, which is unfortunate because I would like to visit that place.

523
0:51:06,625 --> 0:51:08,211
Speaker 2: You think Andy Kaufman's dead or alive?

524
0:51:08,411 --> 0:51:08,953
Speaker 2: Oh he's dead.

525
0:51:09,465 --> 0:51:14,334
Speaker 2: I think he's alive, but I think what he did was so illegal.

526
0:51:14,534 --> 0:51:17,239
Speaker 2: He can't come back without facing charges.

527
0:51:17,525 --> 0:51:19,630
Speaker 1: I think that he died.

528
0:51:20,232 --> 0:51:22,717
Speaker 1: You know pretty much the way that the report went.

529
0:51:23,125 --> 0:51:40,990
Speaker 1: It's just that he had built up such a mystique and I think that there could have been the practical joke element of I'm going to write this thing that says I'm going to come back from the dead, and it's sort of his you know swan song joke on his way out the door to kind of hurl this grenade over his shoulder to be like, well, let's make sure that people always ask the question.

530
0:51:41,245 --> 0:51:42,148
Speaker 1: But no, I don't.

531
0:51:42,369 --> 0:51:43,974
Speaker 1: I don't think he survived.

532
0:51:44,226 --> 0:51:49,932
Speaker 2: I think within the next 20 years, if you and I live long enough, there's going to be reports that he was alive and he died in, like chili.

533
0:51:49,992 --> 0:51:50,735
Speaker 1: He died of chili.

534
0:51:51,025 --> 0:51:53,373
Speaker 2: No, that he died in South America or whatever.

535
0:51:53,706 --> 0:51:58,591
Speaker 2: And then like, this is what he's been doing and he's got you know his memoirs that he's written for people who still care.

536
0:51:58,825 --> 0:52:06,754
Speaker 1: I thought you were envisioning a Kaufman S stunt where he, like, was buried in chili and then, you know, was going to eat his way out or something.

537
0:52:07,245 --> 0:52:11,136
Speaker 1: And then, although I think that Chris Angel guy he might be down for that.

538
0:52:11,606 --> 0:52:21,193
Speaker 1: I mean, I would love to see some performance art involving chili, and I think I only say this because I didn't eat before we recorded, and now I'm thinking how delicious chili sounds.

539
0:52:21,225 --> 0:52:23,092
Speaker 2: I'd like to see Guy Fieri buried in chili.

540
0:52:23,385 --> 0:52:25,231
Speaker 1: I would like to see Guy Fieri buried.

541
0:52:27,165 --> 0:52:39,350
Speaker 2: So Randy Quaid, he's there with Gus and he says you know, guys, some people use a Royals Royce to plow turnips because, he's really saying that that Val is a pretty expensive piece of machinery, so they stick him up on this shelf.

542
0:52:39,685 --> 0:52:42,620
Speaker 2: Randy Quaid and Max they're getting ready to lower on the scissor lift.

543
0:52:42,821 --> 0:52:51,675
Speaker 2: As they're leaving, kind of looks like they're in a Sam's club or like an Ikea, like it's way up high in the air, and as they leave they're arguing about the state of complicated robot technology.

544
0:52:51,805 --> 0:53:01,696
Speaker 2: And it's a real like more complicated, less complicated, no, more complicated, like they're really getting at each other and then up on the shelf Val looks over and he sees Bernadette Peters as Aqua.

545
0:53:02,065 --> 0:53:13,517
Speaker 2: Now Aqua has the same face prosthetics like with a burn victim look, and she kind of her face looks more like one of those two girls from the strangers or that killer from Alice, sweet Alice.

546
0:53:13,537 --> 0:53:14,441
Speaker 2: You know what I'm talking about.

547
0:53:15,767 --> 0:53:36,670
Speaker 2: And it's kind of frightening and Aqua's hair looks like she asked for the Marge Simpson, but instead of Cartoon Blue she got C3PO Gold, and around her neck is this fashionable neck piece that looks like an oversized Pringles potato chip, but at a 45 degree angle, and she's wearing a pink Boussier and her lips are this pronounced bright red and I love Bernadette Peters.

548
0:53:36,931 --> 0:53:37,392
Speaker 1: Who doesn't?

549
0:53:37,512 --> 0:53:38,415
Speaker 1: She's a national treasure.

550
0:53:38,965 --> 0:53:39,246
Speaker 2: In this movie.

551
0:53:39,286 --> 0:53:49,261
Speaker 2: I'll say I think that Bernadette Peters and Andy Kaufman are given at least 90, 95% oh yeah, of course they are trying to put together an honest and goodness movie here.

552
0:53:49,561 --> 0:53:51,547
Speaker 1: It's just awful, Right.

553
0:53:51,568 --> 0:53:57,894
Speaker 1: Well, they're sunk by the fact that there are no jokes in this script, so it's there's no comedy to be mine from it no.

554
0:53:58,725 --> 0:53:59,951
Speaker 1: And it's so poorly edited.

555
0:54:00,125 --> 0:54:04,957
Speaker 1: I don't know that I have seen a movie this poorly edited in a very long time.

556
0:54:05,165 --> 0:54:07,273
Speaker 2: The director of the film brought in a final version.

557
0:54:07,385 --> 0:54:12,431
Speaker 2: I didn't leave this in the intro because I just went there and he brought in a version and showed the studio and they hated it.

558
0:54:12,525 --> 0:54:19,494
Speaker 2: So the studio got in and then they edited it down and it was just one of those a lot of cooks in the kitchen and then what you see is what you get.

559
0:54:19,645 --> 0:54:21,833
Speaker 2: But I can't envision a better version of this.

560
0:54:21,925 --> 0:54:27,771
Speaker 2: I mean there are better movies out there that deal with robots, but here here's the thing All right.

561
0:54:28,685 --> 0:54:33,297
Speaker 2: In movies about robots, 99.9% of all of them fall into three categories.

562
0:54:33,565 --> 0:54:41,172
Speaker 2: Number one, the examination of what it means to be human, where we deal with kind of robots wrestling with ideas like love and sacrifice.

563
0:54:41,605 --> 0:54:54,094
Speaker 2: Number two is where robots are movies and there's the examination of what it's like to be God the creator as a human, where you've made this thing and you have this existential crisis of this quote living being.

564
0:54:54,325 --> 0:55:00,655
Speaker 2: And then, number three, there's the robot movies, where just the robots are trying to kill all the humans as an antagonist and they're basically like zombies.

565
0:55:01,266 --> 0:55:04,205
Speaker 2: That's almost every single robot movie that's out there.

566
0:55:04,546 --> 0:55:05,710
Speaker 1: I agree with all of this, yes.

567
0:55:06,765 --> 0:55:08,450
Speaker 2: You know it's a good robot movie that we're not going to do.

568
0:55:08,710 --> 0:55:09,372
Speaker 1: Robot and Frank.

569
0:55:09,834 --> 0:55:11,488
Speaker 2: Yeah, Robot and Frank.

570
0:55:12,145 --> 0:55:15,994
Speaker 2: That flips the script where Franklin Jella plays Frank.

571
0:55:16,235 --> 0:55:20,695
Speaker 2: I like that Don't have to know which one's Frank and which one's a robot.

572
0:55:21,185 --> 0:55:22,352
Speaker 2: But I love that movie because.

573
0:55:22,485 --> 0:55:24,351
Speaker 1: Call me Skeletor robot so good.

574
0:55:24,571 --> 0:55:46,070
Speaker 2: He's so good and Susan Sarandon is so good in it Everybody's good in that movie, but that's a movie where you have a character who is paired up with a robot, but it is more about a human being dealing with the fragility of old age and what it means to lose your memory, and the robot serves as a catalyst and a mirror to that process.

575
0:55:46,572 --> 0:55:47,762
Speaker 2: It is a gem of a film.

576
0:55:47,803 --> 0:55:50,610
Speaker 2: If you've never seen it, watch it and you won't be disappointed.

577
0:55:50,790 --> 0:55:52,657
Speaker 1: Yeah, not a dry eye in the house at the end of that.

578
0:55:52,877 --> 0:55:53,098
Speaker 2: Damn.

579
0:55:53,118 --> 0:55:56,860
Speaker 2: That's a good film, Unlike Heartbebes, which is terrible.

580
0:55:57,171 --> 0:56:01,397
Speaker 1: We've almost talked about for a solid six minutes in the course of this conversation.

581
0:56:01,631 --> 0:56:04,280
Speaker 2: Another thing, just because I don't want to talk about this movie.

582
0:56:04,491 --> 0:56:07,950
Speaker 2: In the 80s, steve Gutenberg and Ally Sheedy made Short Circuit.

583
0:56:08,112 --> 0:56:09,049
Speaker 2: Well, they were in Short Circuit.

584
0:56:09,190 --> 0:56:27,859
Speaker 2: They didn't make that movie and arguably that is a better film that deals with the topics that are danced around in Heartbebes, because you have a machine, a robot, that slowly begins to understand ideas of life and death and consciousness, and love and compassion.

585
0:56:28,031 --> 0:56:32,958
Speaker 2: This movie feels like it wants to do all of that and it does none of that.

586
0:56:32,998 --> 0:56:49,376
Speaker 1: Right For a movie that's all about robots becoming sentient and experiencing emotion, like Short Circuit comes along a few years later and gets all of that right and manages to be charming, although it does have an extremely problematic performance at the center of that movie.

587
0:56:49,651 --> 0:56:55,818
Speaker 2: With Fisher Stevens doing his best impersonation of Hank Azaria doing his impersonation of Appu.

588
0:56:56,111 --> 0:56:57,958
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's really bad.

589
0:56:59,153 --> 0:57:01,400
Speaker 2: He's the star of the sequel Short Circuit 2.

590
0:57:01,711 --> 0:57:04,780
Speaker 2: Tim and Michael McKee and running around with Johnny Five.

591
0:57:05,051 --> 0:57:19,689
Speaker 1: But the movie itself, short Circuit as a film, despite that aspect of it, is actually a really charming story about this robot that's alive and wanting to be independent and you can root for him because he's an underdog and he's being chased by the authorities.

592
0:57:19,910 --> 0:57:28,750
Speaker 1: And in this movie you have a robot or a series of robots who are gaining sentience, but that's never really addressed.

593
0:57:28,910 --> 0:57:48,310
Speaker 1: Like, short Circuit involves the robot character sort of demanding to be acknowledged as a real living, thinking, feeling creature, where it's like Johnny Five is alive, you know, and this movie there are hints of that where they sort of talk around the idea of these robots gaining some kind of sentience.

594
0:57:48,470 --> 0:57:57,017
Speaker 1: But there is no room for that kind of subtlety in a movie that also features the crime buster busting through the wall of a dinner party.

595
0:57:57,338 --> 0:58:04,550
Speaker 1: No, it's just so wildly all over the place in terms of what it's trying to accomplish and doesn't exactly know how to get there.

596
0:58:04,670 --> 0:58:16,801
Speaker 1: It feels like such a like a first draft of an idea and not even a script Because, like, once we get to the setup of the movie, the rest of the movie is just wandering around in the woods.

597
0:58:18,797 --> 0:58:19,319
Speaker 2: You're right.

598
0:58:19,711 --> 0:58:29,519
Speaker 2: So we get Val and Aqua and they're standing on the ledge of BJs or Costco or whatever which, by the way, how is BJs the name of the store?

599
0:58:29,951 --> 0:58:31,250
Speaker 2: Like Dick Sporting Good Store?

600
0:58:31,370 --> 0:58:34,140
Speaker 2: Didn't somebody come in and like come on, guys, what are we doing?

601
0:58:34,430 --> 0:58:37,960
Speaker 1: I like the fact that BJs does sound like a strip club.

602
0:58:38,321 --> 0:58:40,796
Speaker 1: Sure, or like a strip club, that also.

603
0:58:40,836 --> 0:58:45,744
Speaker 1: You know, wink, wink, the ladies will give you a little something extra if you know how to ask, right.

604
0:58:45,785 --> 0:58:47,756
Speaker 2: That matter, dicks could be a strip club.

605
0:58:47,951 --> 0:58:51,117
Speaker 2: The guys will give you a little something extra if you know how to ask for a wink, wink.

606
0:58:51,911 --> 0:58:56,317
Speaker 1: You don't have to know how to ask a dick, so you're just like I'm here for dick.

607
0:58:56,770 --> 0:58:58,872
Speaker 1: They're like we know what you want, right, dick?

608
0:58:59,355 --> 0:59:05,595
Speaker 2: like in bachelor party when that guy remember he put his big old cock in that hot dog bun and that lady yanked on it.

609
0:59:05,770 --> 0:59:08,159
Speaker 2: She's like I had a man's wiener right in my hand.

610
0:59:11,811 --> 0:59:14,139
Speaker 2: Look how much we're avoiding talking about heartbeats.

611
0:59:14,490 --> 0:59:15,714
Speaker 1: You know what else is?

612
0:59:15,754 --> 0:59:18,081
Speaker 1: An obscure Tom Hanks movie from the 80s.

613
0:59:18,852 --> 0:59:19,917
Speaker 1: He knows you're alone.

614
0:59:20,170 --> 0:59:22,078
Speaker 1: It was one of his early performances, chad.

615
0:59:22,271 --> 0:59:25,250
Speaker 1: He's barely in it, but his head ends up in a fish tank.

616
0:59:25,270 --> 0:59:27,939
Speaker 2: You know well, honestly, Dungeons and Dragons, that's the movie.

617
0:59:28,010 --> 0:59:34,400
Speaker 1: If you're really going to talk about his the movie you're thinking of is Mesa's and Monster's, or in a Jaffes, mesa's and Monster's, which is a TV movie.

618
0:59:34,711 --> 0:59:39,517
Speaker 1: Also start Chris Makepeace, which, if you want to do a little, six degrees of Kevin Bacon with that.

619
0:59:39,858 --> 0:59:40,740
Speaker 1: Chris Maypeace.

620
0:59:40,780 --> 0:59:48,621
Speaker 1: Also, rudy the rabbit from Meatballs, which connects Bill Murray and Tom Hanks, who were recently together in Ash Street City.

621
0:59:48,690 --> 0:59:49,193
Speaker 2: There we go.

622
0:59:49,810 --> 0:59:57,200
Speaker 2: The movie fades in and out of shots of Val and Aqua standing on this shelf and often the distance.

623
0:59:57,450 --> 1:00:08,552
Speaker 2: We finally get a shot of them from the back and there's this wall of windows looking out over the mountains and as the sun is going down, aqua says beautiful, isn't it?

624
1:00:08,873 --> 1:00:13,174
Speaker 2: And Val says why threats the purpose of that piece of communication?

625
1:00:13,595 --> 1:00:17,173
Speaker 2: And Aqua says I was practicing social conversation.

626
1:00:17,635 --> 1:00:22,601
Speaker 2: And Val responds I presume you are here for damage to your mentor circuitry.

627
1:00:22,990 --> 1:00:33,396
Speaker 2: And then these two chit chat about how they're being reprogrammed and how their social robots and Aqua's job is to work poolside and be entertaining.

628
1:00:33,590 --> 1:00:39,840
Speaker 2: And I was like good guys, this like a season one Westworld or X Machina situation, because that's gonna be badly.

629
1:00:40,090 --> 1:00:40,632
Speaker 3: Yeah, val's like.

630
1:00:41,213 --> 1:00:50,077
Speaker 1: I am a cup of specializing instruction buns and you're like, oh my God, like there is nothing likeable about this robot at all.

631
1:00:50,330 --> 1:00:51,816
Speaker 1: It's boring as shit.

632
1:00:52,230 --> 1:00:55,520
Speaker 1: Even C3PO, which was a little highfalutin for a robot.

633
1:00:55,660 --> 1:01:03,059
Speaker 1: But you could kind of get behind C3PO a little bit because he was kind of a jerk Thought, he was above manual labor and so forth.

634
1:01:03,150 --> 1:01:05,879
Speaker 1: It was always picking on R2-D2 and it gave you like it was.

635
1:01:05,990 --> 1:01:09,475
Speaker 1: It didn't make it more likeable, but it gave you a reason to be interested in him.

636
1:01:09,730 --> 1:01:12,579
Speaker 2: You weren't so sad when he got his legs blowed off in part two.

637
1:01:12,910 --> 1:01:16,541
Speaker 1: Oh no, he'd been asking for that for you know an entire movie.

638
1:01:17,370 --> 1:01:26,239
Speaker 2: Val asks Aqua, concerning your observation of the proximity of the sun and the mountains, what would be an appropriate response?

639
1:01:26,751 --> 1:01:32,417
Speaker 2: And Aqua responds in this Patrick Warburton-esque voice oh yeah, that was something.

640
1:01:32,992 --> 1:01:34,337
Speaker 2: So what, gonna get you a drink?

641
1:01:34,710 --> 1:01:40,856
Speaker 2: And then Aqua tells him that as a woman, she would reply oh, thank you, I'll have a banana daiquiri.

642
1:01:40,916 --> 1:01:43,413
Speaker 2: Which barf who orders a banana daiquiri?

643
1:01:44,056 --> 1:01:49,761
Speaker 2: Nobody, a 15 year old down in Cabo San Lucas or something.

644
1:01:49,922 --> 1:01:51,696
Speaker 2: Because they heard it in a shitty movie like this.

645
1:01:51,930 --> 1:01:54,545
Speaker 1: All right, someplace that doesn't have a legal drinking age.

646
1:01:54,887 --> 1:01:55,430
Speaker 2: Help pull advice.

647
1:01:55,510 --> 1:01:57,638
Speaker 2: You don't know what to order when you go up to a bar.

648
1:01:57,770 --> 1:02:00,600
Speaker 2: Come up and just say like, give me a whiskey and that's it.

649
1:02:00,871 --> 1:02:04,361
Speaker 2: And if they say they don't have whiskey, say hell, son, then just give me a beer.

650
1:02:07,310 --> 1:02:09,178
Speaker 1: We call that the mojo Nixon, where I'm from.

651
1:02:09,750 --> 1:02:31,334
Speaker 1: After this exchange, they just go back to staring out this big window as night falls and one presumes, or one is supposed to believe, I think that like, oh, this is the sweet moment where they're starting to connect, although it doesn't ever feel like that, and this is one of those things that's hard to convey, where a movie just fails to get to the emotional moment that it needs to get to.

652
1:02:31,770 --> 1:02:37,043
Speaker 1: And so later on, val looks back at Aqua and says a further inquiry, please.

653
1:02:37,310 --> 1:02:40,420
Speaker 1: What would happen after the inquiry about the daiquiri?

654
1:02:40,851 --> 1:02:45,760
Speaker 1: And she says, oh, very bad, bantu, to help the man feel more viral and interesting.

655
1:02:46,210 --> 1:02:57,140
Speaker 1: And then this storm rolls in across the Valley and lightning strikes this tree outside and bells it and they move a little closer together and you see their hands touch.

656
1:02:57,430 --> 1:02:58,634
Speaker 1: This is the point of my notes.

657
1:02:58,654 --> 1:03:03,499
Speaker 1: Chad, where I wrote to myself you know what didn't make it into man on the moon.

658
1:03:04,250 --> 1:03:05,754
Speaker 4: Anything about heartbebes.

659
1:03:08,360 --> 1:03:09,022
Speaker 2: You are right.

660
1:03:09,250 --> 1:03:11,338
Speaker 2: I don't want this movie to be any longer than it is.

661
1:03:11,430 --> 1:03:13,016
Speaker 2: If anything, I wish it would have been shorter.

662
1:03:13,077 --> 1:03:14,493
Speaker 2: Okay, but I don't know that.

663
1:03:14,554 --> 1:03:37,740
Speaker 2: Pick six movies we make your movie less worse can help make this movie less worse, but what this movie is missing is about 10 minutes on the front where we get to meet Val or Aqua in their natural habitat and then you get that spark of this robot is a little bit different later on when he tells lies, later on when they break into the hardware store that he's becoming sentient.

664
1:03:37,830 --> 1:03:48,375
Speaker 2: He is thinking differently, which is what Westworld did, or the TV show, not the movie, where you introduce these moments of this artificial intelligence beginning to think differently about things.

665
1:03:48,415 --> 1:03:58,839
Speaker 2: And you don't get that because there's no motivation for any of the characters in this film other than vows saying let's go look at some trees and it's like like what is this door to the Explorer?

666
1:03:59,190 --> 1:04:00,034
Speaker 2: What are we doing?

667
1:04:00,810 --> 1:04:04,916
Speaker 2: There's a better three act structure in an episode of door to the Explorer than there is in this movie.

668
1:04:05,590 --> 1:04:07,598
Speaker 1: There is no three act structure to this.

669
1:04:07,891 --> 1:04:16,741
Speaker 1: Again, it is set up walk around in the woods, then pay off the pain, yeah, yeah and yeah, and Dave's ex junk pile.

670
1:04:17,142 --> 1:04:23,241
Speaker 1: While this is going on, we see that the crime buster is being tested inside also.

671
1:04:24,130 --> 1:04:26,457
Speaker 1: Charlie and Max then roll by with.

672
1:04:27,078 --> 1:04:32,041
Speaker 1: Catskill is the name of this robot, the fucking bane of my existence in this movie.

673
1:04:32,170 --> 1:04:40,360
Speaker 2: It looks like an oversized gangster cartoon who is currently and perpetually suffering a stroke on the left side of its mouth.

674
1:04:40,570 --> 1:04:46,493
Speaker 1: Yeah, it could be a mafia bot, it could be a rich boss bot, but it what it is is.

675
1:04:46,954 --> 1:04:49,982
Speaker 1: It's a Catskill comic with this cigar in one hand.

676
1:04:50,271 --> 1:04:55,894
Speaker 2: Who builds this robot bow to tell shitty jokes and who are they telling him to?

677
1:04:56,094 --> 1:04:59,796
Speaker 2: What is the need for this in the world in which this movie takes place?

678
1:05:00,131 --> 1:05:06,220
Speaker 2: I'll bet a dollar this came from the same jackasses that made those singing Billy Bass fish in the 90s.

679
1:05:06,530 --> 1:05:08,518
Speaker 1: I think it came straight from Guantanamo, chad.

680
1:05:09,397 --> 1:05:13,110
Speaker 1: That's where it's rolling around and they're just like well, talk will say anything, nope, nope.

681
1:05:13,230 --> 1:05:14,897
Speaker 1: You've got two more mother-in-law jokes.

682
1:05:15,211 --> 1:05:22,775
Speaker 2: And I didn't even write down the majority of the stupid jokes he tells, because some of them aren't even jokes, they're not even set up and punchline, they're just hell.

683
1:05:23,271 --> 1:05:26,119
Speaker 2: They sound like something that Andy Kaufman would have said.

684
1:05:26,260 --> 1:05:26,841
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yes.

685
1:05:26,950 --> 1:05:40,756
Speaker 2: I posited to you when you were expressing how disappointed you were that I chose that I wanted to do this movie to kick off the season, that I was like maybe Andy Kaufman made this movie knowing it would be bad and he was like just watch him flush the movie down the toilet.

686
1:05:40,870 --> 1:05:42,537
Speaker 2: But having watched, I don't think that's the case.

687
1:05:42,790 --> 1:05:44,938
Speaker 2: I think that Andy Kaufman is trying his best.

688
1:05:45,230 --> 1:05:48,179
Speaker 2: It's just everything about this is so terrible.

689
1:05:48,379 --> 1:05:49,141
Speaker 1: I agree with that.

690
1:05:49,250 --> 1:05:51,659
Speaker 1: I think that he is trying in this.

691
1:05:51,750 --> 1:05:59,999
Speaker 1: I think Bernadette Peters is trying, I think even Randy Quaid and Keith McMillan is Charlie and Max like they are trying to make a movie here.

692
1:06:00,300 --> 1:06:01,683
Speaker 1: But it's just shit.

693
1:06:01,830 --> 1:06:07,399
Speaker 1: Charlie is talking about how he's glad he got to see this like Crime Buster deluxe model in person.

694
1:06:07,870 --> 1:06:11,861
Speaker 1: Meanwhile they're testing this thing on a firing range.

695
1:06:11,970 --> 1:06:18,443
Speaker 1: You know, it's one of those things where figures pop up from behind walls and move across like a shooting gallery kind of thing.

696
1:06:18,450 --> 1:06:23,255
Speaker 2: Yeah, little cutouts of like a bandit with a mask and a stripe shirt and he shoots that one.

697
1:06:23,456 --> 1:06:25,281
Speaker 2: And then a little girl pops up with a balloon.

698
1:06:25,350 --> 1:06:33,539
Speaker 2: He doesn't shoot her, but then an old lady pushing a baby carriage comes wiggling across from left to right and Crime Buster incinerates the two of the flamethrower.

699
1:06:33,750 --> 1:06:39,637
Speaker 1: Right, and it's not a men in black thing where Crime Buster is like well, you can see that little girl had a physics book and that's way out of her league.

700
1:06:39,690 --> 1:06:43,701
Speaker 1: You know, this is just a malfunction but then they just in that scene.

701
1:06:43,910 --> 1:06:45,577
Speaker 2: We just cut away from that like that's over.

702
1:06:45,911 --> 1:06:47,405
Speaker 2: Is he not trustworthy?

703
1:06:47,809 --> 1:06:50,319
Speaker 1: Right, doesn't matter, because it never comes up again in the movie.

704
1:06:50,912 --> 1:06:59,319
Speaker 1: There are so many scenes in this movie where it ends abruptly in a way that you think that there's going to be some later payoff to this and there just isn't.

705
1:06:59,390 --> 1:07:04,136
Speaker 2: There's easily eight moments in a very short film where that happens over and over again.

706
1:07:04,431 --> 1:07:15,836
Speaker 2: So we come back to Val and Aqua and they're up on their shelf and they're staring out this Bay of Windows and it's the day after the storm and out in the distance there's a double rainbow and Aqua says can you identify that atmospheric phenomenon?

707
1:07:16,350 --> 1:07:18,618
Speaker 2: And Val says yes, it is a rainbow.

708
1:07:19,010 --> 1:07:22,000
Speaker 2: Can you detect all of the colors of the human eye?

709
1:07:22,210 --> 1:07:24,358
Speaker 2: And Aqua says yes, plus three more.

710
1:07:24,710 --> 1:07:30,836
Speaker 2: And then Val inexplicably says we would be very compatible for many different functions.

711
1:07:31,478 --> 1:07:31,819
Speaker 2: What?

712
1:07:32,250 --> 1:07:36,548
Speaker 1: And Aqua inexplicably equally says the same thing.

713
1:07:36,608 --> 1:07:39,859
Speaker 2: Crossed my grid and then they just stand there blinking.

714
1:07:40,280 --> 1:07:49,094
Speaker 2: And also when Aqua blinks it makes this loud clicking sound and it reminded me of when Squidward would blink and it would make that tiny fart noise.

715
1:07:49,195 --> 1:07:54,544
Speaker 2: On SpongeBob SquarePants, I could probably just said SpongeBob, I don't think I need to add SquarePants to it.

716
1:07:54,866 --> 1:07:56,071
Speaker 2: Seems like it goes without saying.

717
1:07:56,465 --> 1:08:06,857
Speaker 1: You don't run into a lot of SpongeBob's that aren't SquarePants, and likewise you don't run into a lot of like Frank SquarePants, like oh of the New Hampshire SquarePants.

718
1:08:07,139 --> 1:08:08,265
Speaker 2: Yes, fun story.

719
1:08:08,486 --> 1:08:17,053
Speaker 2: Originally he was going to be called SpongeBoy SquarePants, but SpongeBoy was trademark and they had to change it to SpongeBob, and thus animation history was made Bo.

720
1:08:17,386 --> 1:08:20,649
Speaker 1: Is that something we can talk about for about another 45 minutes and then just in the show?

721
1:08:21,026 --> 1:08:23,105
Speaker 2: Or we could just stop right now and go to the next episode.

722
1:08:24,250 --> 1:08:31,211
Speaker 2: Oh, boy, Look we're actually obligated to talk through the whole movie, Otherwise they take our thumbs.

723
1:08:31,625 --> 1:08:39,130
Speaker 1: That's true, and I've only got one left after hitting the abort on some Michael Manson movie, I'm sure.

724
1:08:39,485 --> 1:08:43,216
Speaker 1: So Max and Charlie are bringing Catskill up to this platform.

725
1:08:43,465 --> 1:08:46,670
Speaker 2: Gus asks Catskill, here, can you function?

726
1:08:47,066 --> 1:08:50,015
Speaker 2: And Catskill says hey, can I function?

727
1:08:50,426 --> 1:08:51,310
Speaker 2: Can you function?

728
1:08:51,606 --> 1:08:52,328
Speaker 2: Put on a bump.

729
1:08:52,890 --> 1:08:55,767
Speaker 2: And I was like that's not a joke, that is an.

730
1:08:56,088 --> 1:08:57,512
Speaker 2: I know you are, but what am I?

731
1:08:58,034 --> 1:09:05,732
Speaker 1: Right, then he the one he tells is a guy goes up to a retail manager and says hey, I got a leak in my sink.

732
1:09:06,186 --> 1:09:13,234
Speaker 1: And the manager says well, the customer's always right, I guess because you know it's about peeing in a sink.

733
1:09:13,826 --> 1:09:21,191
Speaker 1: The thing that's frustrating about this is that the characters in the movie, like Max and Charlie, are like oh, this is fucking terrible, we have to get away from this thing.

734
1:09:21,506 --> 1:09:27,658
Speaker 1: And as they're leaving, catskill says hey, did you hear the joke about the guy who got killed by the weasel?

735
1:09:27,960 --> 1:09:28,425
Speaker 1: Gus takes the bait.

736
1:09:28,505 --> 1:09:30,865
Speaker 1: They stop, it's Max, it's the Max.

737
1:09:30,965 --> 1:09:31,427
Speaker 2: That is not.

738
1:09:31,467 --> 1:09:32,170
Speaker 2: It was Gus.

739
1:09:32,190 --> 1:09:33,449
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, it's Max.

740
1:09:33,905 --> 1:09:34,246
Speaker 2: Shit.

741
1:09:34,307 --> 1:09:36,313
Speaker 2: You can tell how little I paid attention to this movie.

742
1:09:36,514 --> 1:09:36,875
Speaker 1: It's fine.

743
1:09:37,245 --> 1:09:39,895
Speaker 1: So Max is like, hey, I got to hear this.

744
1:09:40,066 --> 1:09:44,513
Speaker 1: And Charlie is like no man, trust me on this, you do not want any part of this, let's go.

745
1:09:44,826 --> 1:09:51,105
Speaker 1: And so the thing descends, and then there's a beat, and then it comes back up and Max is like I got to hear this.

746
1:09:51,245 --> 1:09:54,375
Speaker 1: So so what about the guy who got killed by the weasel?

747
1:09:54,826 --> 1:09:59,457
Speaker 1: And Catskill says he's laid down on a railroad track and fell asleep.

748
1:09:59,846 --> 1:10:01,131
Speaker 1: And then he didn't hear the weasel.

749
1:10:01,452 --> 1:10:01,653
Speaker 1: Wait.

750
1:10:01,985 --> 1:10:05,356
Speaker 1: So you're just substituting the word weasel for whistle.

751
1:10:05,565 --> 1:10:09,800
Speaker 2: He didn't get killed by a weasel or a whistle, he got killed by a train.

752
1:10:10,043 --> 1:10:12,112
Speaker 2: Right Like your premise is flawed, sir.

753
1:10:12,505 --> 1:10:16,997
Speaker 1: And disgusted the two men to send back on the cherry picker.

754
1:10:17,245 --> 1:10:23,218
Speaker 1: And it's actually a moment that I hesitate to say I like it, because I don't really like anything about this movie.

755
1:10:23,385 --> 1:10:29,165
Speaker 1: But at least was a moment like if this had been the tone of the film, I could have gotten behind it a little more.

756
1:10:29,365 --> 1:10:33,887
Speaker 2: You mean where the people in the movie were hating the movie as much as you did Right when.

757
1:10:33,927 --> 1:10:36,385
Speaker 1: Charlie is like you dumb son of a bitch.

758
1:10:36,546 --> 1:10:39,275
Speaker 1: I told you this was not going to be worth it, and here we are.

759
1:10:39,445 --> 1:10:41,753
Speaker 2: But it's crazy how little they're in the movie.

760
1:10:41,914 --> 1:10:44,598
Speaker 1: Oh, I know there's just cutaways to them walking through the woods.

761
1:10:44,639 --> 1:10:44,820
Speaker 1: To.

762
1:10:44,860 --> 1:10:45,665
Speaker 1: Anyway, we'll get to all this.

763
1:10:45,765 --> 1:10:57,230
Speaker 2: So later that night Catskill is asleep and snoring, because robots snore, and Val looks off into the distance and he says I'm trying to study those trees In the distant mountains.

764
1:10:57,571 --> 1:11:01,305
Speaker 2: I need a companion to go with me to collect data on a field trip.

765
1:11:01,546 --> 1:11:03,453
Speaker 2: And Aqua says I'm the nearest unit.

766
1:11:03,685 --> 1:11:05,152
Speaker 2: Would I be compatible?

767
1:11:05,485 --> 1:11:10,858
Speaker 2: And then Aqua and Val, they decide they're going to wander off to go hang out in the woods.

768
1:11:11,205 --> 1:11:14,675
Speaker 2: And then Catskill wakes up and he decides he's going to follow.

769
1:11:14,775 --> 1:11:15,177
Speaker 1: That's right.

770
1:11:15,285 --> 1:11:17,894
Speaker 2: There's no reason for any of this to happen whatsoever.

771
1:11:18,105 --> 1:11:28,055
Speaker 2: This movie fails to give us any reason as to why they're going on this trip, other than Val wants to go look at some trees, because earlier he said he was involved with the stock market and he's a valet.

772
1:11:28,206 --> 1:11:29,250
Speaker 2: Now he's an arborist.

773
1:11:29,506 --> 1:11:31,373
Speaker 2: Also, how do they get off the shelf though?

774
1:11:31,525 --> 1:11:36,484
Speaker 2: They're like 30 feet in the air Because of movie I know.

775
1:11:36,866 --> 1:11:52,479
Speaker 2: So we got to Max and Randy Quaid and they're playing poker with Mr Futterman from Gremlins and they're chit-chatting about robots because that's all they really talk about and in the background Val Aqua and Catskill just wander by this wide open bank of windows.

776
1:11:52,685 --> 1:11:56,056
Speaker 2: Randy Quaid clearly should have seen them, unless he suffers from tunnel vision.

777
1:11:56,285 --> 1:12:01,390
Speaker 2: And then Val Aqua and Catskill, they get in a work van and Val says I will drive.

778
1:12:01,565 --> 1:12:06,925
Speaker 2: Then they take off and we see this van speeding down the road like it's a love bug movie.

779
1:12:07,045 --> 1:12:11,725
Speaker 2: It's all in this sped up fast motion that is wholly out of place in this movie.

780
1:12:11,905 --> 1:12:12,326
Speaker 1: Burn it that.

781
1:12:12,346 --> 1:12:21,590
Speaker 1: Peters, as Aqua is like Val, will you please drive slower, because my anxiety circuits are overloading and he's like no, shut up.

782
1:12:22,006 --> 1:12:23,051
Speaker 1: I know what I'm doing.

783
1:12:23,326 --> 1:12:24,812
Speaker 1: Don't make me backhand you.

784
1:12:25,146 --> 1:12:26,511
Speaker 1: Do you want to taste my ring?

785
1:12:26,551 --> 1:12:26,873
Speaker 2: finger.

786
1:12:27,186 --> 1:12:29,814
Speaker 2: They say that words hurt as hard as a fist.

787
1:12:30,166 --> 1:12:31,371
Speaker 2: Do you want to find out?

788
1:12:31,586 --> 1:12:32,791
Speaker 1: This movie took a turn.

789
1:12:33,126 --> 1:12:34,530
Speaker 4: Ike Turner Incorporated.

790
1:12:35,614 --> 1:12:35,895
Speaker 1: What?

791
1:12:36,126 --> 1:12:38,695
Speaker 1: I will smack your ass back to not push.

792
1:12:39,526 --> 1:12:50,205
Speaker 2: So we come back to the warehouse and Mr Fuderman from Gremlas, he's wandering around he notices that three of the robots are missing and he goes over to Gus and Charlie and he's like hey guys what happened to those robots?

793
1:12:50,325 --> 1:12:53,255
Speaker 2: And they're like, oh shit, they're gone, whoa.

794
1:12:53,866 --> 1:12:57,645
Speaker 2: So then we come back to the van and Val's driving and he knocks over a white picket fence.

795
1:12:57,886 --> 1:13:12,848
Speaker 2: Then we go back to the warehouse and there's a manager of the warehouse who's played by some character actor whose name I didn't bother to write down, and he just shows out God damn it, which then wakes up the rolling assassination machine known as Crime Buster in this movie, and I really like that.

796
1:13:12,888 --> 1:13:13,410
Speaker 2: God damn.

797
1:13:13,470 --> 1:13:20,748
Speaker 2: It was his like wake up phrase, because I thought, how awesome would that be if that was what got your Amazon echo to pay attention where you're like.

798
1:13:20,788 --> 1:13:21,892
Speaker 2: God damn it, alexa.

799
1:13:22,445 --> 1:13:24,373
Speaker 4: Set a timer for four and a half minutes.

800
1:13:25,046 --> 1:13:26,452
Speaker 1: His unsafety word.

801
1:13:28,046 --> 1:13:31,325
Speaker 2: Four and a half minutes timer starting now, motherfucker.

802
1:13:34,011 --> 1:13:37,158
Speaker 1: I'm sure there's gotta be a way to hack at Alexa.

803
1:13:37,365 --> 1:13:39,974
Speaker 1: Download the poor taste app Sure.

804
1:13:40,266 --> 1:13:44,033
Speaker 2: It's like Sam Jackson yelling at you Get the fuck up, motherfucker.

805
1:13:44,666 --> 1:13:45,971
Speaker 2: Yeah, timer's going off.

806
1:13:46,265 --> 1:13:50,236
Speaker 2: Get off your lazy fat ass and get in here and turn this shit off.

807
1:13:50,447 --> 1:13:51,405
Speaker 1: Hit snooze again.

808
1:13:51,666 --> 1:13:52,731
Speaker 1: I double, dare you.

809
1:13:53,486 --> 1:13:55,212
Speaker 2: It seems like a perfect opportunity.

810
1:13:55,585 --> 1:14:04,925
Speaker 1: So Crime Buster deluxe, like you said, is now active, has taken the use of the word God damn it as his go word and he is now on the hunt for these robots.

811
1:14:05,146 --> 1:14:12,297
Speaker 1: And we see it driving across the landscape, sending up a flare to see the missing robots are to hunt for them Right.

812
1:14:12,505 --> 1:14:18,258
Speaker 2: So we cut back to Aqua and she's riding in the van with Val and she tells him to slow down.

813
1:14:18,526 --> 1:14:26,296
Speaker 2: He's really white knuckle in this and he's afraid if he takes his hand off the steering wheel to hit her that he's going to do more damage to himself as well as Catskill.

814
1:14:26,405 --> 1:14:31,330
Speaker 1: How about you get in the back seat if you're going to do this Backseat driving?

815
1:14:31,946 --> 1:14:39,393
Speaker 2: So the van eventually crashes and Val, being a stereotypical shithead of God of movies, like someone, crashed this van.

816
1:14:39,845 --> 1:14:41,711
Speaker 2: Take responsibility for your actions.

817
1:14:42,253 --> 1:14:42,955
Speaker 2: But he doesn't.

818
1:14:43,346 --> 1:14:45,153
Speaker 2: And then he says there is a path ahead.

819
1:14:45,385 --> 1:14:48,715
Speaker 2: We can follow it to go find more trees, even though he's surrounded by trees.

820
1:14:49,046 --> 1:14:51,554
Speaker 2: And then Aqua says we should look in the back of this truck.

821
1:14:51,866 --> 1:14:53,893
Speaker 2: We might find supplies that we need for the journey.

822
1:14:54,266 --> 1:14:57,536
Speaker 2: Perhaps we could build something that could help pull our supplies.

823
1:14:57,685 --> 1:15:07,877
Speaker 2: And then Catskill tells a bunch of shitty jokes while Val and Aqua build a new tiny robot which, once complete, val says look, aqua, it has your wiring.

824
1:15:08,266 --> 1:15:11,515
Speaker 2: And Aqua says yes, val, it has your circuits.

825
1:15:11,866 --> 1:15:24,609
Speaker 2: And they've built this tiny robot that has a mechanical baseball cap, I think, like his cap is like a toaster oven with the door open or something, or maybe it's the radio from the car with the floor or the glove box or something with the door open, but I don't know.

826
1:15:24,870 --> 1:15:28,125
Speaker 2: one of its arms is this oversized novelty Swiss army knife.

827
1:15:28,346 --> 1:15:29,491
Speaker 2: I don't know where they got that.

828
1:15:29,765 --> 1:15:37,615
Speaker 2: This thing is like their kid and Aqua says we should call him Philbot and Val's like eh, whatever.

829
1:15:40,285 --> 1:15:42,674
Speaker 1: Look, I didn't sign any papers.

830
1:15:43,106 --> 1:15:45,193
Speaker 1: I'm not responsible for this thing.

831
1:15:45,394 --> 1:15:48,633
Speaker 1: Okay, just so long as we understand that.

832
1:15:48,906 --> 1:15:56,137
Speaker 2: And during the same, when we meet this kid robot which looks like a tiny tykes version of conky from Peewee's Playhouse.

833
1:15:56,407 --> 1:16:00,013
Speaker 1: It's of Johnny five If it were assembled by a madman.

834
1:16:00,225 --> 1:16:12,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, it looks like if if someone was given 18 minutes to build a replica of Wally out of stuff they found in their house, this is the greatest thing that they could have built.

835
1:16:13,045 --> 1:16:15,414
Speaker 1: If battle bots were built on a timer.

836
1:16:15,725 --> 1:16:16,969
Speaker 2: And also when we meet this character.

837
1:16:17,290 --> 1:16:24,045
Speaker 2: The John Williams score here is about to blow out a hemorrhoid because it's doing so much heavy lifting.

838
1:16:24,185 --> 1:16:28,216
Speaker 1: Well, the one thing they always say about John Williams as a composer always subtle.

839
1:16:28,405 --> 1:16:35,690
Speaker 2: I also mentioned that Jerry Garcia, frontman for the Grateful Dead, provided music for Phil the kid robot in this.

840
1:16:35,790 --> 1:16:40,542
Speaker 2: That's true, but then the studio, after they kind of like shit can the director and kicked him out.

841
1:16:40,582 --> 1:16:44,825
Speaker 2: They reedited that and I don't think they used any of Jerry Garcia's music for the child robot.

842
1:16:45,006 --> 1:16:50,191
Speaker 1: That would have been interesting, as opposed to all the just random beep boops that you get here, which is very R2D2.

843
1:16:50,465 --> 1:16:52,409
Speaker 2: I don't want to hear like no, I want Right.

844
1:17:01,009 --> 1:17:03,193
Speaker 1: What do you think, phil?

845
1:17:03,293 --> 1:17:07,660
Speaker 1: But I think he is on the brown rooms again.

846
1:17:07,886 --> 1:17:09,251
Speaker 1: Phil is tripping balls.

847
1:17:09,785 --> 1:17:13,396
Speaker 2: He thinks that fish is a poor substitute for Grateful Dead.

848
1:17:13,705 --> 1:17:16,675
Speaker 2: How anyone can listen to that garbage is beyond me.

849
1:17:16,925 --> 1:17:20,095
Speaker 1: It's a double album and there are three songs.

850
1:17:20,605 --> 1:17:22,793
Speaker 1: What kind of bullshit is that?

851
1:17:23,125 --> 1:17:32,333
Speaker 1: I saw a fish shortly after college on some pretty bad acid, so I had a headache the whole time.

852
1:17:32,806 --> 1:17:34,573
Speaker 1: It was unendurable.

853
1:17:34,846 --> 1:17:35,870
Speaker 2: That sounds about right.

854
1:17:36,045 --> 1:17:45,745
Speaker 1: You know, the whole thing felt like a thing that should have happened to teach me a lesson, and it did, because after that I never had bad acid again and I never saw fish again.

855
1:17:45,865 --> 1:17:46,991
Speaker 2: Congratulations to you.

856
1:17:47,386 --> 1:17:48,370
Speaker 1: I just had good acid.

857
1:17:48,686 --> 1:17:49,349
Speaker 2: Charlie and Gus.

858
1:17:49,450 --> 1:17:54,914
Speaker 2: They're wandering around and they find the crash band and they see that there's missing parts that were used to make fillbots.

859
1:17:55,185 --> 1:18:03,440
Speaker 2: And it seems like this is a good moment where Charlie aka Ray DeQuade he could get curious about how robots are making other robots, which would make the movie interesting.

860
1:18:03,480 --> 1:18:04,361
Speaker 2: But that doesn't happen.

861
1:18:04,585 --> 1:18:10,693
Speaker 2: And then we cut to Val and Aqua as they're walking along discussing the existence of God and how only God can make a tree.

862
1:18:11,045 --> 1:18:19,816
Speaker 2: This seems like a good opportunity to root the characters in the examination of what it means to be alive or to have a soul, but the movie doesn't do that at all.

863
1:18:19,985 --> 1:18:23,415
Speaker 1: Val says God is a concept by which we measure our pain.

864
1:18:23,946 --> 1:18:27,837
Speaker 1: And Aqua says you know, god must be very efficient.

865
1:18:28,045 --> 1:18:34,146
Speaker 1: And Val says, yes, do you know how many paper products you can make from all these trees, boy?

866
1:18:34,346 --> 1:18:46,637
Speaker 1: Like you said, in the scene before, randy Quaid starts musing about what makes a sentient life form Right and his partner literally says shut up and stop worrying about that.

867
1:18:46,905 --> 1:18:51,257
Speaker 1: Don't you dare bring this into an interesting place for this movie.

868
1:18:51,687 --> 1:18:53,505
Speaker 1: And the next scene is the same thing.

869
1:18:53,625 --> 1:19:00,177
Speaker 1: Like you said, it's like what did these robots believe in terms of creation, and is there something that not just made them?

870
1:19:00,237 --> 1:19:01,945
Speaker 1: Is there something that made their makers?

871
1:19:02,085 --> 1:19:04,426
Speaker 1: They don't deal with any of that, Beau Right.

872
1:19:04,567 --> 1:19:12,545
Speaker 1: But they touch it, they come close to it and then it's just like let's tell a joke about making paper like it's the fucking office.

873
1:19:12,565 --> 1:19:22,374
Speaker 2: Then we cut to a helicopter that's flying in the air and the pilot is Sister Mary Stigmata from the Blues Brothers, that comes to nothing Her being in the helicopter.

874
1:19:22,414 --> 1:19:24,125
Speaker 2: You'd think it would matter, but it doesn't.

875
1:19:24,286 --> 1:19:26,540
Speaker 2: Then we come back on the ground and fill the child robot.

876
1:19:26,620 --> 1:19:27,345
Speaker 2: He sees a rabbit.

877
1:19:27,506 --> 1:19:29,814
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, we're going to get some good mice and men stuff here.

878
1:19:29,986 --> 1:19:31,070
Speaker 2: He's going to kill this bunny.

879
1:19:31,230 --> 1:19:32,174
Speaker 2: That doesn't happen.

880
1:19:32,806 --> 1:19:33,891
Speaker 1: Oh, that would be good.

881
1:19:34,186 --> 1:19:35,632
Speaker 2: And then Val and Aqua.

882
1:19:35,812 --> 1:19:39,710
Speaker 2: They seem a little worried because they've lost Phil, because he's wandered off the way kids do.

883
1:19:39,905 --> 1:19:45,604
Speaker 2: You're like, oh, this is going to be a good, interesting moment about how these two new parents feel when they've lost their child.

884
1:19:45,825 --> 1:19:52,239
Speaker 2: But no, instead, val and Aqua complain about who is at fault for not watching Phil.

885
1:19:54,665 --> 1:19:59,417
Speaker 1: And there's this bow tie locator thing that comes up two or three times in the movie.

886
1:19:59,477 --> 1:20:02,845
Speaker 1: That also feels like it ought to matter somehow somewhere.

887
1:20:02,905 --> 1:20:04,351
Speaker 1: Val never does.

888
1:20:04,772 --> 1:20:06,190
Speaker 1: No, val gives it to Phil.

889
1:20:06,385 --> 1:20:08,834
Speaker 1: So here, so you are never lost again.

890
1:20:09,005 --> 1:20:11,354
Speaker 1: Oh, we found another one later on in the movie.

891
1:20:11,627 --> 1:20:13,405
Speaker 1: Oh, and it never comes to anything yet.

892
1:20:13,425 --> 1:20:17,156
Speaker 2: There's so much in this movie that they introduce that doesn't come to anything.

893
1:20:17,465 --> 1:20:20,334
Speaker 2: So after they find Phil who was with the bunny, they leave.

894
1:20:20,374 --> 1:20:22,702
Speaker 2: And then Crime Buster shows up and he's in pursuit.

895
1:20:22,846 --> 1:20:34,232
Speaker 2: Then we cut over to this helicopter with Sister Mary Stigmata and she's flying around and she tells Charlie and Max hey, if you two assholes don't find these robots, then you got to pay for them.

896
1:20:34,505 --> 1:20:41,793
Speaker 2: So down on the ground, val, aqua and Phil and Catskill they're two little long and they find this cave and inside they hear a roar.

897
1:20:41,905 --> 1:20:55,417
Speaker 2: Val goes inside with this sense of unearned bravado and he walks in and he tries to reason with this animal that's growling in him in the dark and then he just gets thrown out through the air like it's professional wrestling and he crashes on the ground and he damages his arm.

898
1:20:55,565 --> 1:21:02,138
Speaker 2: And then about a bear comes walking out of this cave growling, and Val's like we better get out of here.

899
1:21:02,545 --> 1:21:07,177
Speaker 2: And then he misidentifies the bear as a camel, which I'm like are you an idiot?

900
1:21:07,425 --> 1:21:08,489
Speaker 2: Clearly it's a bear.

901
1:21:08,971 --> 1:21:11,512
Speaker 2: I know that You're a really expensive robot.

902
1:21:11,727 --> 1:21:12,704
Speaker 2: You think you'd know that.

903
1:21:12,885 --> 1:21:26,418
Speaker 2: And then Phil, the child robot, approaches the bear to the protest of Aqua and Val, his parents, and then the helicopter flies overhead scaring the bear, and then the robots just hide in the cave.

904
1:21:26,585 --> 1:21:33,170
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a thing where Charlie says hey, I see some movement over there, it's just a bear.

905
1:21:33,705 --> 1:21:35,111
Speaker 1: Then they move on like they're.

906
1:21:35,231 --> 1:21:39,349
Speaker 1: The threat is immediately drained of hey, these robots are about to get caught.

907
1:21:39,765 --> 1:21:41,352
Speaker 1: Yeah, they go into the cave.

908
1:21:41,726 --> 1:21:47,036
Speaker 1: It's getting dark, so Max says that they need to take the helicopter back.

909
1:21:47,506 --> 1:21:53,417
Speaker 1: And so all of this running around in the helicopter and hey, you've got to stay out here until you find the robots or you got to pay for them.

910
1:21:53,437 --> 1:21:53,941
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter.

911
1:21:54,103 --> 1:21:55,916
Speaker 1: Doesn't matter, they just fly back anyway.

912
1:21:55,937 --> 1:21:56,057
Speaker 2: Yeah.

913
1:21:56,206 --> 1:22:03,754
Speaker 2: Then Crime Buster shows up and goes by the picket fence that they ran over earlier and he's like attention Fugitive, turn yourself in now.

914
1:22:03,966 --> 1:22:05,785
Speaker 2: Like who is he yelling at in the woods?

915
1:22:05,966 --> 1:22:13,165
Speaker 2: They're nowhere around, it's nighttime and Catskill is there with Phil telling these jokes that are not funny or worth repeating.

916
1:22:13,325 --> 1:22:22,542
Speaker 2: But Phil's laughing his ass off with a bunch of beat-bop bleep-lurps and then we cut over to a campfire and I'm like why do robots have a campfire Right?

917
1:22:22,883 --> 1:22:25,585
Speaker 1: It's a great question, I guess, for mood, just atmosphere.

918
1:22:25,707 --> 1:22:26,884
Speaker 2: I guess to film it.

919
1:22:26,945 --> 1:22:37,463
Speaker 2: Aqua's trying to fix Vowell's damaged arm and Aqua and Vowell discuss putting a safety sensor on Phil and Vowell says I will always be here to protect you.

920
1:22:37,986 --> 1:22:39,311
Speaker 2: And what's his name?

921
1:22:39,826 --> 1:22:45,513
Speaker 2: And she's like his name is Phil, like fill up the wagon behind him.

922
1:22:46,086 --> 1:22:48,294
Speaker 2: Oh, that is a pretty good name for him.

923
1:22:48,645 --> 1:22:52,716
Speaker 1: Don't be offended if I forget it again, because I don't really care.

924
1:22:53,105 --> 1:23:03,165
Speaker 2: This scene ends with Aqua leaning in to hug Vowell because he told her that he has a sensor on his back that keeps acting up and these two embrace as they're hugging.

925
1:23:03,285 --> 1:23:10,172
Speaker 2: They have this physical moment, but then they're immediately interrupted by their kid, like he's busting them having sex.

926
1:23:10,525 --> 1:23:18,240
Speaker 1: They say that they're adjusting each other's pleasure centers Chad, which is the hugging that we saw, but it sounds like fucking yeah.

927
1:23:18,565 --> 1:23:21,815
Speaker 1: Hey, I didn't know that your kid was gonna be home.

928
1:23:22,126 --> 1:23:25,112
Speaker 2: He is our child, he is not my child.

929
1:23:25,305 --> 1:23:30,758
Speaker 1: No, it's better if I think of it the other way, because single moms turn me on.

930
1:23:33,086 --> 1:23:34,933
Speaker 1: I think it's their vulnerability.

931
1:23:37,025 --> 1:23:45,094
Speaker 2: We cut away from this campfire in the middle of the night to find ourselves in a small town on Main Street Nowheresville, usa.

932
1:23:45,366 --> 1:23:50,567
Speaker 2: The robots are all walking along and they've got pine trees or bushes in front of them, as it disguises.

933
1:23:50,687 --> 1:23:54,657
Speaker 2: And then they break into a hardware store to steal supplies so they can repair themselves.

934
1:23:54,886 --> 1:23:59,725
Speaker 2: Actually, they use their child to break into the hardware store as he cuts through the security fence.

935
1:23:59,946 --> 1:24:02,600
Speaker 2: Once they're inside, they start gathering up everything they need.

936
1:24:02,761 --> 1:24:09,871
Speaker 2: And then Aqua and Vowell scold Phil because he wants this toy fireman's hat that, let's be honest, he doesn't need it, like every kid does.

937
1:24:10,485 --> 1:24:13,976
Speaker 2: And then Catskill is like hey, buddy, just fucking, thank you.

938
1:24:14,186 --> 1:24:15,864
Speaker 1: We're already breaking and entering.

939
1:24:16,107 --> 1:24:16,754
Speaker 1: What are you gonna do?

940
1:24:16,835 --> 1:24:17,745
Speaker 4: to clamp discount.

941
1:24:17,865 --> 1:24:18,889
Speaker 4: Am I right, or am I right?

942
1:24:18,949 --> 1:24:20,214
Speaker 4: All right, come here, put this on.

943
1:24:20,405 --> 1:24:26,171
Speaker 2: He's kind of like this uncle character that's really looking after him and doing stuff on the side and you're like, oh, that's kind of sweet.

944
1:24:26,485 --> 1:24:28,832
Speaker 2: I'll bet this fireman's hat comes back later.

945
1:24:29,193 --> 1:24:30,917
Speaker 2: Of course not, of course not.

946
1:24:31,445 --> 1:24:35,965
Speaker 1: This is the first mention, too, of the fact that they don't have extra energy cells.

947
1:24:36,085 --> 1:24:37,712
Speaker 2: Why is that not mentioned earlier?

948
1:24:37,907 --> 1:24:39,505
Speaker 2: And the way they mentioned it here it's so casual.

949
1:24:39,605 --> 1:24:44,632
Speaker 2: They're like oh look, they're out of energy packs, maybe we can get some later.

950
1:24:45,246 --> 1:24:53,637
Speaker 1: Yes, that sounds like something like it becomes a major deal Later in the movie, but it should have been set up as soon as they were on the shelves.

951
1:24:53,867 --> 1:24:54,957
Speaker 2: What is your battery life?

952
1:24:55,038 --> 1:24:55,745
Speaker 2: It's at 60%.

953
1:24:55,926 --> 1:24:57,171
Speaker 2: Let's charge it up to 100.

954
1:24:57,547 --> 1:24:59,177
Speaker 2: Oh, you know these things, their batteries.

955
1:24:59,218 --> 1:25:03,014
Speaker 2: The more you charge them over time, they don't hold their energy that long.

956
1:25:03,366 --> 1:25:04,912
Speaker 2: That's one of the flaws with this model.

957
1:25:05,475 --> 1:25:05,816
Speaker 2: Oh, okay.

958
1:25:06,086 --> 1:25:07,492
Speaker 1: Anything, anything Chad.

959
1:25:07,825 --> 1:25:12,637
Speaker 2: If you're writing a movie and you think my movie might be shit, reach out to us.

960
1:25:12,985 --> 1:25:13,929
Speaker 2: We'll help you out.

961
1:25:14,129 --> 1:25:15,173
Speaker 2: Please do Right.

962
1:25:15,333 --> 1:25:15,895
Speaker 1: We will help.

963
1:25:16,066 --> 1:25:19,610
Speaker 2: We only want people to make good movies, not stuff like this.

964
1:25:19,946 --> 1:25:23,396
Speaker 2: If people didn't make bad movies, then we could stop doing this podcast.

965
1:25:23,686 --> 1:25:26,605
Speaker 2: Or at least that's what the devil told us when we sold our souls to him.

966
1:25:26,765 --> 1:25:27,970
Speaker 1: That's the reason we do the whole.

967
1:25:28,010 --> 1:25:33,234
Speaker 1: We'll make your movie less worse as soon as there are nothing but good movies in the world.

968
1:25:33,674 --> 1:25:35,198
Speaker 1: We get to stop Right.

969
1:25:35,505 --> 1:25:41,418
Speaker 1: We get to jump off this Sisyphusian treadmill of just wall to wall cinematic bullshit.

970
1:25:41,746 --> 1:25:44,034
Speaker 1: We get to stop torturing interns.

971
1:25:44,445 --> 1:25:45,569
Speaker 1: We can unplug.

972
1:25:45,630 --> 1:25:46,613
Speaker 1: Pick six spot.

973
1:25:47,026 --> 1:25:48,552
Speaker 2: It all stops people.

974
1:25:48,805 --> 1:25:50,893
Speaker 1: You don't think we want to do this right.

975
1:25:51,265 --> 1:25:51,989
Speaker 2: Good God.

976
1:25:52,365 --> 1:25:55,595
Speaker 2: The amount of time, energy, effort, it's a lot.

977
1:25:55,745 --> 1:26:03,700
Speaker 1: Do you know how many hours that we will spend writing, noting, editing a show about fucking heartbeats?

978
1:26:04,626 --> 1:26:06,051
Speaker 1: Do you think that's by choice?

979
1:26:06,486 --> 1:26:08,272
Speaker 2: What kind of person would do that?

980
1:26:08,552 --> 1:26:10,410
Speaker 2: Nobody, unless you had to.

981
1:26:10,745 --> 1:26:13,875
Speaker 1: People in a contract with the devil, chad, that's who.

982
1:26:14,325 --> 1:26:23,273
Speaker 1: So crime buster is hot on the heels, then reminds the audience that they're going to need some energy pack soon, just like me, the crime buster.

983
1:26:23,625 --> 1:26:32,276
Speaker 1: And so they're walking down the street though, our robots with these Douglas furs, and crime buster comes upon them, throw his lights on them as they're crossing this street.

984
1:26:32,526 --> 1:26:39,776
Speaker 1: They try to sneak away a little bit and out comes the machine gun and he sort of shoots at their feet in a real like dance, you know kind of move.

985
1:26:40,125 --> 1:26:44,845
Speaker 1: That's where Val says we are not the robots you we are looking for, we are bush butts.

986
1:26:45,707 --> 1:26:48,455
Speaker 1: And he and crime buster says bush bots?

987
1:26:48,495 --> 1:26:51,534
Speaker 1: Huh, sounds like a little bit of a bruise.

988
1:26:52,007 --> 1:26:53,745
Speaker 1: What about that little one over there?

989
1:26:53,926 --> 1:26:56,374
Speaker 1: He's ain't even big enough to be a bush bot.

990
1:26:56,606 --> 1:26:58,574
Speaker 1: And Val says yes, he is a shred bot.

991
1:26:59,245 --> 1:27:09,742
Speaker 1: Then crime buster takes pictures for an ID and says I'm all called the police and they're going to be here at four am, so we're just going to wait right here.

992
1:27:09,783 --> 1:27:09,884
Speaker 2: Yeah.

993
1:27:10,247 --> 1:27:13,668
Speaker 2: And then Val says we are not criminals.

994
1:27:14,049 --> 1:27:15,533
Speaker 2: That would be illogical.

995
1:27:16,174 --> 1:27:18,239
Speaker 2: Robots cannot commit crimes.

996
1:27:18,925 --> 1:27:21,792
Speaker 2: And then Crime Buster says wait a minute.

997
1:27:21,852 --> 1:27:24,198
Speaker 2: You can't be robots because you're criminals.

998
1:27:24,446 --> 1:27:26,494
Speaker 2: But you can't be criminals because you're robots.

999
1:27:26,735 --> 1:27:40,418
Speaker 2: This doesn't make any sense and it's this circular logic that scrambles Crime Buster's circuits and he goes all bonkers and leads him to just blasting a flamethrower down Main Street, nowheresville, usa, off into the distance.

1000
1:27:40,605 --> 1:27:41,969
Speaker 1: But they've already gone by this point.

1001
1:27:41,989 --> 1:27:42,591
Speaker 1: It's a real.

1002
1:27:42,892 --> 1:27:44,136
Speaker 1: The following statement is true.

1003
1:27:44,156 --> 1:27:46,325
Speaker 1: The previous statement is false thing.

1004
1:27:46,505 --> 1:27:54,110
Speaker 1: Our heroes come across a dinner party and decide that they can blend in there as service robots.

1005
1:27:54,270 --> 1:27:57,477
Speaker 2: Aqua says a party that's a perfect place to hide.

1006
1:27:57,938 --> 1:28:00,511
Speaker 2: Val, please control your drinking.

1007
1:28:00,772 --> 1:28:05,546
Speaker 1: I think that maybe my drinking problem is you talking about it all the time.

1008
1:28:05,827 --> 1:28:10,658
Speaker 1: Maybe if you just cut off my back a little bit, I wouldn't need to drink as much.

1009
1:28:12,246 --> 1:28:15,278
Speaker 2: So inside this party are a bunch of rich asshole humans.

1010
1:28:15,478 --> 1:28:19,130
Speaker 2: Val and Aqua go in and they pretend to be servant robots handing out food and drinks.

1011
1:28:19,271 --> 1:28:26,834
Speaker 2: And then Phil, he's rolling around handing out booze and he looks up a woman's skirt and it's like woo, woo, woo.

1012
1:28:27,295 --> 1:28:30,910
Speaker 1: This robot gets horny like no other in this film.

1013
1:28:31,211 --> 1:28:36,772
Speaker 2: One woman walks over to Val and goes hey, I'll take a vodka because she's all messed up on Kwayloons.

1014
1:28:36,952 --> 1:28:38,097
Speaker 2: And then she grabs the drink.

1015
1:28:38,117 --> 1:28:42,055
Speaker 2: She's like, hey, this is a banana dackerist and 15 year olds around here.

1016
1:28:42,215 --> 1:28:48,013
Speaker 2: And then, because it was mentioned earlier in the movie, val says in this deep man voice yes, I know what you mean.

1017
1:28:48,254 --> 1:28:49,938
Speaker 2: It makes you feel closer to.

1018
1:28:49,998 --> 1:28:52,008
Speaker 4: God, what are we talking?

1019
1:28:52,048 --> 1:28:56,158
Speaker 2: about here, catskulls rolling around telling these stupid insulting jokes.

1020
1:28:56,446 --> 1:28:57,309
Speaker 2: He goes up this one woman.

1021
1:28:57,329 --> 1:29:00,723
Speaker 2: He's like, hey, how long can a human live without a brain?

1022
1:29:00,743 --> 1:29:04,636
Speaker 2: And then one was like what I said how long can a human live without a brain?

1023
1:29:05,058 --> 1:29:08,728
Speaker 4: What the punchline is how old are you Anyway?

1024
1:29:09,350 --> 1:29:15,331
Speaker 1: it's kind of a hit at the party, like everybody seems to find Catskull funny, which just lets you know how much they've all been drinking.

1025
1:29:15,551 --> 1:29:30,051
Speaker 1: They're messed up on booze pills weed, ketamine, ayahuasca, shinkum Sounds like my weekends, and Crime Buster, meanwhile, has sniffed out where these robots have gone.

1026
1:29:30,392 --> 1:29:33,964
Speaker 4: This is a hop speed pursuit, a no knock entry is legal.

1027
1:29:33,984 --> 1:29:39,041
Speaker 2: And then Crime Buster just crashes through this house and blasts out the back wall.

1028
1:29:39,142 --> 1:29:41,010
Speaker 2: But luckily our heroes have left already.

1029
1:29:41,030 --> 1:29:42,819
Speaker 2: There are two moves ahead of Crime Buster every time.

1030
1:29:42,980 --> 1:29:45,070
Speaker 1: Sure Well, Crime Buster is not very smart, Chad.

1031
1:29:45,230 --> 1:29:49,147
Speaker 1: I have a feeling our robots are going to deliver that course by the end of the movie.

1032
1:29:49,749 --> 1:30:05,576
Speaker 1: Course, spirit does make an appearance in this film, so hopefully so the next morning by what happens we get a scene that doesn't matter at all, in which the owner of the house, mary Warnoff as it happens in Paul Bartell, two very famous independent filmmakers.

1033
1:30:05,817 --> 1:30:14,187
Speaker 1: They're hanging out outside their ruined house and this robot made comes up and offers a crudite to Mary Warnoff.

1034
1:30:14,527 --> 1:30:17,835
Speaker 1: She storms off and says what do you think about all this?

1035
1:30:17,895 --> 1:30:22,362
Speaker 1: To Paul Bartell, who says well, I know you're going to hate this, but I thought it was a stunning affair.

1036
1:30:22,623 --> 1:30:22,925
Speaker 2: And that's it.

1037
1:30:23,065 --> 1:30:23,768
Speaker 2: That's all.

1038
1:30:23,788 --> 1:30:30,474
Speaker 2: If he'd said it without pants on or underwear, like he was totally nude from the waist down, then you got a movie, then you got a scene.

1039
1:30:30,714 --> 1:30:37,352
Speaker 1: If they were both so drunk that at the end of the scene they both simultaneously threw up on one another.

1040
1:30:39,196 --> 1:30:40,359
Speaker 2: That would have been pretty good.

1041
1:30:40,525 --> 1:30:43,232
Speaker 1: It would have made the movie like a one, a fully one star move.

1042
1:30:43,252 --> 1:30:47,709
Speaker 2: What if they had both been completely nude and then threw up on each other?

1043
1:30:48,350 --> 1:30:49,012
Speaker 2: Do stars?

1044
1:30:49,492 --> 1:30:59,655
Speaker 1: and Chad if it became a bit of an escalation where the vomit on the other person made them sick all over again.

1045
1:31:00,336 --> 1:31:12,590
Speaker 1: So it was almost a Bellagio kind of fountain spewing a vomit of arcing up, and then another one from the right, and then one from the left and you got some.

1046
1:31:13,371 --> 1:31:21,330
Speaker 1: You know, some blue Danube started playing, and that was 15, 15 minutes of the movie.

1047
1:31:21,590 --> 1:31:28,028
Speaker 1: So the movie is still 90 minutes long, but fully, but oddly enough it feels 30 minutes shorter.

1048
1:31:29,991 --> 1:31:32,116
Speaker 1: Yeah, because no matter how shitty.

1049
1:31:32,136 --> 1:31:35,268
Speaker 1: The rest of the movie you got you would be thinking about.

1050
1:31:35,348 --> 1:31:50,206
Speaker 1: Like that 15 minutes were two relatively famous independent filmmakers just projectile vomited on each other on each other's nude bodies for 15 solid minutes of the film.

1051
1:31:50,507 --> 1:31:58,987
Speaker 1: It would pause occasionally where they would just go oh God, oh God, do we have any water?

1052
1:31:59,088 --> 1:32:01,273
Speaker 1: Get the Maybutt to bring us.

1053
1:32:01,413 --> 1:32:05,158
Speaker 1: And then it starts all over again, because you can't just do it solidly for 15 minutes.

1054
1:32:05,178 --> 1:32:06,766
Speaker 2: You know who would have loved that most of all?

1055
1:32:07,728 --> 1:32:08,329
Speaker 2: Andy Kaufman.

1056
1:32:08,810 --> 1:32:11,957
Speaker 1: Andy Kaufman would have voted for that in a heartbeat, in a heartbeat.

1057
1:32:12,258 --> 1:32:16,055
Speaker 2: You walked the theater, everyone left by minute 12 of this.

1058
1:32:16,195 --> 1:32:16,997
Speaker 2: They are gone.

1059
1:32:19,365 --> 1:32:26,643
Speaker 1: It's rivals Salo, yeah, in terms of just driving people out of a theater, I love this.

1060
1:32:26,844 --> 1:32:36,211
Speaker 2: We cut to the woods where Val and Aqua are walking along and Val's 10 paces ahead of her, and Aqua says Val, we have not communicated for 7.3 miles.

1061
1:32:36,432 --> 1:32:39,879
Speaker 2: It is illogical not to communicate with another unit.

1062
1:32:40,305 --> 1:32:43,693
Speaker 2: Communication is necessary for future success.

1063
1:32:44,073 --> 1:32:47,726
Speaker 2: So these two are fighting about what exactly, who knows.

1064
1:32:48,227 --> 1:32:53,558
Speaker 2: But Val says Aqua, I have not been efficient in exchanging information with you.

1065
1:32:53,846 --> 1:32:57,558
Speaker 2: And Aqua says I operate better with maximum input.

1066
1:32:58,060 --> 1:33:00,830
Speaker 2: And then we hear their heart beeps, because that's the name of the movie, bo.

1067
1:33:01,312 --> 1:33:06,793
Speaker 2: And then Aqua and Val hold hands and they walk off, ending this fight that started about 41 seconds ago.

1068
1:33:07,135 --> 1:33:12,831
Speaker 1: In the interest of full disclosure, then I have some information for you to process.

1069
1:33:13,292 --> 1:33:17,182
Speaker 1: I'm sick and tired of you asking me what's wrong.

1070
1:33:17,744 --> 1:33:18,726
Speaker 1: You know what's wrong.

1071
1:33:19,248 --> 1:33:21,676
Speaker 1: All these questions, that's what's wrong.

1072
1:33:22,077 --> 1:33:25,207
Speaker 1: Maybe I just want to enjoy a walk in the woods in silence.

1073
1:33:25,628 --> 1:33:27,292
Speaker 1: Is that against the law?

1074
1:33:27,814 --> 1:33:33,007
Speaker 1: Should I turn myself into crime buster for just wanting to take a fucking walk?

1075
1:33:35,111 --> 1:33:42,065
Speaker 1: Why don't you take a couple of steps back and just talk to your snotty kid?

1076
1:33:43,329 --> 1:33:45,736
Speaker 1: I have to remind you Val, he is our child.

1077
1:33:46,077 --> 1:33:50,770
Speaker 1: Whatever you say, actually, how about you don't say anything for a few minutes?

1078
1:33:54,518 --> 1:33:57,946
Speaker 2: We got to Charlie and Max or Gus or whatever the guy's name is.

1079
1:33:58,066 --> 1:33:59,393
Speaker 2: They're out in the woods roaming around.

1080
1:33:59,433 --> 1:34:00,357
Speaker 2: And then Randy Quaid.

1081
1:34:00,417 --> 1:34:05,799
Speaker 2: Charlie, he's changing a tire on the truck and he reaches the back and he grabs a bag of beer.

1082
1:34:05,839 --> 1:34:08,329
Speaker 2: It looks like a Capri Sun, but with beer inside.

1083
1:34:08,369 --> 1:34:10,036
Speaker 2: I'm like that sounds like an awesome idea.

1084
1:34:10,197 --> 1:34:12,646
Speaker 2: And it's Coors beer, because crime buster is after him.

1085
1:34:12,927 --> 1:34:16,855
Speaker 2: He's going to barbecue their ass in molasses or something.

1086
1:34:16,935 --> 1:34:41,338
Speaker 2: They got a long way to go in their short time to get their chest See crime buster hauling ass through the woods singing America the beautiful, as he drives through a bunch of stock footage of every animal you could possibly see in the woods until crime buster eventually stops at the tree stop we saw earlier with the rabbit and he fires a rocket into the street.

1087
1:34:41,379 --> 1:34:44,308
Speaker 2: Stop to blow up the rabbit that we saw earlier in the movie.

1088
1:34:44,568 --> 1:34:47,637
Speaker 2: But the rabbit doesn't die because this isn't that remake of the hitcher.

1089
1:34:48,505 --> 1:34:55,331
Speaker 2: We cut to Val and Aqua walking along and they're talking about how they want to raise Phil, her kid, to not be a servant to people.

1090
1:34:55,552 --> 1:35:01,071
Speaker 2: And then both they just come across a junkyard and they roll into it and it just piles a filth.

1091
1:35:01,512 --> 1:35:05,566
Speaker 2: And Aqua says I hope we find new energy packs, quite.

1092
1:35:05,586 --> 1:35:06,187
Speaker 2: She said what now?

1093
1:35:07,470 --> 1:35:10,516
Speaker 2: And Val's like are you running low on energy?

1094
1:35:10,957 --> 1:35:15,534
Speaker 2: And Aqua says yes, but I did not want to trouble you with that variable input.

1095
1:35:15,715 --> 1:35:19,330
Speaker 2: And then Val says I would function better with maximum input.

1096
1:35:19,751 --> 1:35:25,190
Speaker 2: Isn't that your favorite thing to say to me all the time other than go get a job?

1097
1:35:25,771 --> 1:35:28,277
Speaker 2: Or why don't you like it when my mother comes over?

1098
1:35:28,577 --> 1:35:31,172
Speaker 1: Well, look who is suddenly a comedian.

1099
1:35:31,975 --> 1:35:41,939
Speaker 1: So they make some robot eyes at each other because they're teasing each other and it's very cute in quotes and then into the movie Chad stroll, chris guest.

1100
1:35:42,145 --> 1:35:46,958
Speaker 2: Yeah, and Melanie Mayron I didn't know she did anything before 30 something.

1101
1:35:47,726 --> 1:35:49,975
Speaker 2: Yeah, these are two humans that live in trash, bro.

1102
1:35:50,056 --> 1:35:51,904
Speaker 2: They're literal trailer trash.

1103
1:35:51,924 --> 1:35:54,051
Speaker 2: They live in a trailer, in trash piles.

1104
1:35:54,251 --> 1:35:56,899
Speaker 2: They are the inspiration for Oscar the Grouch.

1105
1:35:57,321 --> 1:36:01,471
Speaker 1: I think these are people who secretly wish that they were robots.

1106
1:36:02,092 --> 1:36:07,593
Speaker 1: You know that it's some kind of furry cosplay kind of business, because they talk like robots.

1107
1:36:07,633 --> 1:36:10,261
Speaker 1: Yeah, they dress and outlandish clothes.

1108
1:36:10,642 --> 1:36:14,793
Speaker 1: They are obsessed with how robots function and work and spoilers.

1109
1:36:15,234 --> 1:36:18,447
Speaker 1: At the end of the movie they decide to live amongst robots.

1110
1:36:18,808 --> 1:36:44,190
Speaker 2: You know they wife swap right At the end of this movie 100% and you know that Val is like look, I know she's had two kids, but she's still good where it counts, christopher guest, but did you like the part where Val walked over to the conga drum and kind of tapped it twice and he said nice conquests.

1111
1:36:44,345 --> 1:36:49,371
Speaker 1: You know, it was something it reminded me of a thing I'd rather be watching Sure.

1112
1:36:49,833 --> 1:36:52,783
Speaker 2: Cat skills there and he keeps telling jokes that suck.

1113
1:36:53,284 --> 1:36:56,593
Speaker 2: Aqua and Val lose Phil again.

1114
1:36:56,653 --> 1:37:05,783
Speaker 2: He wanders off chasing a raccoon and then Phil comes across the corpse of a robot with its eyeball like hanging out of its head, and Phil just freaks the hell out.

1115
1:37:05,884 --> 1:37:11,077
Speaker 2: Phil comes rolling back and he's all weirded out because he just learned about death one day after he was born.

1116
1:37:11,345 --> 1:37:18,973
Speaker 2: And then I don't know where both, crime buster shows up with his guns pulled and he says what we have here is a failure to communicate.

1117
1:37:19,414 --> 1:37:21,058
Speaker 2: And he's like big fan of cool hand loopbo.

1118
1:37:21,505 --> 1:37:26,015
Speaker 2: And then crime buster says my decision is to destroy you now.

1119
1:37:26,376 --> 1:37:30,331
Speaker 2: And then cat skill says hey, pal, pick on somebody your own size.

1120
1:37:30,431 --> 1:37:44,627
Speaker 2: And then crime buster just starts firing ammunition indiscriminately everywhere, shooting Phil, the child robot, and then he just starts blasting his flame thrower everywhere and the little raccoon that they met earlier he hides his eyes because he's adorable.

1121
1:37:44,848 --> 1:37:50,379
Speaker 1: It turns out that Aqua, val, cat skill and Phil are murdered quickly.

1122
1:37:50,465 --> 1:38:04,066
Speaker 1: But it does a very stylish freeze frame as they come out of the Mexican building and you just hear the gunshots, but you see them looking heroic and then Range Ropsky following on my head, plays and end of movie None of that happened.

1123
1:38:04,125 --> 1:38:06,009
Speaker 2: Instead, christopher Guest and Melanie Mayer.

1124
1:38:06,049 --> 1:38:09,705
Speaker 2: They jump on the back of crime buster, they cut two wires to disarm this robot.

1125
1:38:09,906 --> 1:38:15,167
Speaker 2: And I just want to say real quick, there are 14 minutes left in this movie and no discernible plot chat.

1126
1:38:15,509 --> 1:38:16,753
Speaker 2: None at all, christopher.

1127
1:38:16,833 --> 1:38:21,672
Speaker 2: Guest says if you want Phil, your kid robot, to survive in the world, he needs a function.

1128
1:38:21,873 --> 1:38:29,536
Speaker 2: And Melanie Mayer says we could do that, but there's only one place to get the parts we need and Val says let me guess the factory.

1129
1:38:29,776 --> 1:38:30,698
Speaker 2: I'm like the watery.

1130
1:38:31,046 --> 1:38:31,910
Speaker 2: What do you the what?

1131
1:38:32,090 --> 1:38:34,521
Speaker 1: Let's go back to the place where this movie started.

1132
1:38:34,842 --> 1:38:36,188
Speaker 2: Oh, I didn't think it was the factory.

1133
1:38:36,328 --> 1:38:38,396
Speaker 2: I thought that was like a repair warehouse.

1134
1:38:38,877 --> 1:38:39,620
Speaker 1: No, chad.

1135
1:38:39,781 --> 1:38:44,916
Speaker 1: The whole point of this is like in very much Mad Max Fury Road style.

1136
1:38:45,498 --> 1:38:51,413
Speaker 1: We are going to spend most of the movie going to one location, just to turn around and go back to where we came from.

1137
1:38:51,774 --> 1:38:55,931
Speaker 2: I thought this was more like Oz, like that was this new destination they were going to.

1138
1:38:56,292 --> 1:38:56,774
Speaker 2: I didn't get that.

1139
1:38:56,794 --> 1:38:57,957
Speaker 2: They were backtracking.

1140
1:38:58,125 --> 1:38:59,529
Speaker 2: That sucks.

1141
1:38:59,689 --> 1:39:02,697
Speaker 2: I didn't think it was possible to just like this movie, any more than I already did.

1142
1:39:02,885 --> 1:39:04,128
Speaker 1: That is in my notes.

1143
1:39:04,188 --> 1:39:12,263
Speaker 1: I was like are you fucking kidding me that we are going to leave this factory wander around in the woods for a little while and then just go back to the factory.

1144
1:39:12,283 --> 1:39:12,504
Speaker 2: All right.

1145
1:39:12,524 --> 1:39:13,468
Speaker 2: So we cut to the robots.

1146
1:39:13,509 --> 1:39:25,507
Speaker 2: Going to the fact, aqua says we need more power to make the journey and then Val looks at his power reading on his forearm and it says 9%, but Val lies and he says I have 34% remaining.

1147
1:39:25,868 --> 1:39:31,727
Speaker 2: And then Aqua looks at her power readout and it says 8% and she says I have 33% remaining.

1148
1:39:31,947 --> 1:39:33,893
Speaker 2: I'm like look at these two robots lying to each other.

1149
1:39:33,913 --> 1:39:36,408
Speaker 2: But that's how you build a long lasting relationship.

1150
1:39:36,448 --> 1:39:42,830
Speaker 2: You just lie to each other and you both know you're lying to each other and you just like love is grand.

1151
1:39:43,131 --> 1:39:46,598
Speaker 1: Lie on top of lies and you lie to cover those lies up.

1152
1:39:46,625 --> 1:39:48,622
Speaker 1: It's the foundation of any good relationship.

1153
1:39:48,698 --> 1:39:49,394
Speaker 2: Absolutely so.

1154
1:39:49,470 --> 1:39:51,491
Speaker 2: Then we come back to Christopher Gas and Mellie Mayron.

1155
1:39:51,531 --> 1:39:55,968
Speaker 2: Christopher Gas says you know, they don't have enough power, they're never going to make it back.

1156
1:39:56,389 --> 1:39:59,718
Speaker 2: And Mellie Mayron says well, I hope they do.

1157
1:40:01,605 --> 1:40:02,307
Speaker 1: End of scene.

1158
1:40:02,327 --> 1:40:03,430
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just her like.

1159
1:40:03,791 --> 1:40:08,134
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know the reality of this, but you know, I wish they'll be okay.

1160
1:40:08,395 --> 1:40:10,285
Speaker 2: Probably won't have fun storming the castle.

1161
1:40:11,647 --> 1:40:13,590
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.

1162
1:40:13,870 --> 1:40:18,798
Speaker 1: And Val and Aqua discover that Phil only has 2% left.

1163
1:40:18,818 --> 1:40:23,029
Speaker 1: Yeah, and we get a real from Catskill.

1164
1:40:23,330 --> 1:40:26,643
Speaker 1: Then we're back on the chase because Charlie and Max see them.

1165
1:40:26,823 --> 1:40:29,556
Speaker 1: But they say like hey, there's four robots instead of three.

1166
1:40:29,617 --> 1:40:31,987
Speaker 1: And Max is like I don't give a shit how many robots there are.

1167
1:40:32,027 --> 1:40:39,431
Speaker 1: We've got three invoices, we take back three robots three robots and zero full pouches of Coors beer.

1168
1:40:39,672 --> 1:40:47,785
Speaker 1: And then they say this is going to take a while because we got to drive around the mountain to go get them, so no chance that we're going to speed any of this up.

1169
1:40:47,965 --> 1:40:48,126
Speaker 1: No.

1170
1:40:48,286 --> 1:41:01,326
Speaker 2: And then Val walks over to Phil you know his old lady's kid and he comes over and he says at night, the stars come out and the North Star comes out, and that leads to the junkyard with our friends.

1171
1:41:01,948 --> 1:41:03,591
Speaker 2: Let's detach your wagon.

1172
1:41:03,992 --> 1:41:06,657
Speaker 2: You're the first robot I ever programmed.

1173
1:41:06,697 --> 1:41:07,739
Speaker 2: You are efficient.

1174
1:41:08,126 --> 1:41:12,279
Speaker 2: You are concerned about when the light goes out.

1175
1:41:12,520 --> 1:41:18,755
Speaker 2: I'm assuming you're talking about night, but you may be talking about death, when you run out of power and you die.

1176
1:41:19,096 --> 1:41:20,359
Speaker 2: We will all be dead soon.

1177
1:41:21,106 --> 1:41:25,341
Speaker 1: You are no longer concerned about the darkness thing that will consume us all.

1178
1:41:25,702 --> 1:41:33,359
Speaker 2: Also, if, for some reason, I no longer have power and your mom wants to take you on Mari Povich, say no.

1179
1:41:33,606 --> 1:41:34,549
Speaker 1: Do me a favor.

1180
1:41:34,870 --> 1:41:47,847
Speaker 1: If she says your name after I powered down and she says Phil, then I want you to say the reason that I am not working anymore is I powered myself down because I'd had my Phil of her.

1181
1:41:48,549 --> 1:41:49,411
Speaker 1: It's a good show.

1182
1:41:49,692 --> 1:41:50,314
Speaker 1: She will laugh.

1183
1:41:51,297 --> 1:42:07,912
Speaker 2: So the Catskill decides that he's going to take out his battery pack and stick it in Phil and it turns out that Catskill's battery pack has 43% left, because Phil's about to die and the reason his battery pack still has so much juice is that he was using low power jokes and that's why they suck.

1184
1:42:08,072 --> 1:42:15,795
Speaker 2: And then Catskill dies telling the following joke my mother-in-law needed a hot transplant once, but we had to give up.

1185
1:42:16,116 --> 1:42:17,138
Speaker 2: We couldn't find a gorilla.

1186
1:42:17,525 --> 1:42:20,070
Speaker 1: And so now there are three.

1187
1:42:20,291 --> 1:42:21,132
Speaker 1: They just leave him.

1188
1:42:21,753 --> 1:42:23,357
Speaker 2: Val's like fuck that noise.

1189
1:42:23,557 --> 1:42:26,148
Speaker 1: Wherever he falls there, shall he be buried?

1190
1:42:26,329 --> 1:42:35,738
Speaker 1: Yeah, Charlie and Max end up finding Catskill shortly thereafter and just unceremoniously disassemble him and toss him in the back of the truck.

1191
1:42:36,146 --> 1:42:46,063
Speaker 2: After talking about how expensive and delicate he is, like they throw him in the back of this pickup, like he's a deer, they hit on the highway that they want to be tonight's dinner.

1192
1:42:46,425 --> 1:42:55,351
Speaker 1: I like the fact that we get this very stylish shot, like an overhead shot, looking down at Catskill that slowly moves up as if his soul is leaving his body.

1193
1:42:55,712 --> 1:43:04,458
Speaker 1: It's the far and away shot when Tom Cruise has been tatered and you hear Nicole Kidman say I've loved it since the moment I saw you.

1194
1:43:05,825 --> 1:43:06,949
Speaker 1: I've often wondered about that.

1195
1:43:07,189 --> 1:43:08,834
Speaker 4: That's not a bad movie, but.

1196
1:43:09,034 --> 1:43:11,387
Speaker 1: I mean, it's better than this yes.

1197
1:43:11,728 --> 1:43:26,167
Speaker 1: There are things about it, that kind of approach, the spectacle of movies from the 1940s and 50s, and that's what it was going for, and it has its moments for sure, although it's been a long time since I've seen it and I would like to go back and watch Tom Cruise get punched in the face a little bit.

1198
1:43:26,267 --> 1:43:26,789
Speaker 1: That'd be fun.

1199
1:43:26,989 --> 1:43:28,513
Speaker 2: You know who made the music for that.

1200
1:43:28,754 --> 1:43:29,596
Speaker 1: Oh, was it John Williams.

1201
1:43:30,225 --> 1:43:34,154
Speaker 1: You got a damn right, it's got a great score Far and away.

1202
1:43:34,314 --> 1:43:36,759
Speaker 1: It uses that Inya piece as well.

1203
1:43:37,825 --> 1:43:38,834
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's terrific.

1204
1:43:38,908 --> 1:43:40,625
Speaker 1: The music for far and away is great.

1205
1:43:40,699 --> 1:43:41,501
Speaker 2: Let's wrap this up.

1206
1:43:41,575 --> 1:43:43,066
Speaker 2: We are so close to the end.

1207
1:43:43,167 --> 1:43:45,132
Speaker 2: Yeah, so our remaining robots.

1208
1:43:45,152 --> 1:43:53,437
Speaker 2: They arrive about a mile away from the factory and then Aqua runs out of energy and she says I knew you would make it, Val Brrr.

1209
1:43:53,757 --> 1:43:54,379
Speaker 2: So she's dead.

1210
1:43:54,805 --> 1:44:02,249
Speaker 2: Then Val turns around and he says Aqua, there's one piece of data I need to share with you before I run out of.

1211
1:44:02,569 --> 1:44:11,434
Speaker 2: And then he sees that she's standing there, lifeless in this field, and Val says I want to discuss one last human phenomenon with you.

1212
1:44:12,156 --> 1:44:18,050
Speaker 2: I want to talk about Le Le Leer Brrr, he's dead.

1213
1:44:18,471 --> 1:44:19,895
Speaker 2: And who's watching all of this?

1214
1:44:19,916 --> 1:44:27,314
Speaker 2: Phil, their child robot, and he's just howling and crying as his mother and father have died in front of him.

1215
1:44:27,655 --> 1:44:29,359
Speaker 2: Who was this movie made for?

1216
1:44:29,745 --> 1:44:36,229
Speaker 1: Apparently, children who have lost both their parents in front of them and just need a way to process and relate to that.

1217
1:44:36,273 --> 1:44:39,827
Speaker 2: What do you think Val wanted to talk to her about that phenomenon, what he was like.

1218
1:44:40,228 --> 1:44:44,698
Speaker 2: I want to talk about Le Le like, like luggage or a lawyer.

1219
1:44:44,986 --> 1:44:47,695
Speaker 1: I want to talk about looking for a third.

1220
1:44:47,875 --> 1:44:49,822
Speaker 1: I've been interested in swinging.

1221
1:44:50,203 --> 1:44:52,869
Speaker 1: I am sure you are familiar with this concept.

1222
1:44:53,310 --> 1:44:57,999
Speaker 1: I'm sure that some of your other poolbots and you would get down sometimes.

1223
1:44:59,645 --> 1:45:08,193
Speaker 1: Have you considered a third or maybe even a threple, the cool kind where it's another female poolbot, not another dude?

1224
1:45:08,534 --> 1:45:13,175
Speaker 2: Phil the kid robot runs off and hides in the woods because that's what you do when your parents die in front of you.

1225
1:45:13,235 --> 1:45:14,100
Speaker 2: At least that's what I did.

1226
1:45:14,301 --> 1:45:17,535
Speaker 2: And then we hear Charlie and Gus or Max or whatever their names are.

1227
1:45:17,675 --> 1:45:25,137
Speaker 2: They come up and they're drunk on Capri Sun Coors beer and they just give the old heave ho of these expensive robots into the back of the truck.

1228
1:45:25,305 --> 1:45:34,873
Speaker 2: And then Phil cries out and he rolls off into the woods and Randy Quaid, charlie, he sees him, but he's so drunk he's like thinking it's a hallucination again.

1229
1:45:35,294 --> 1:45:36,677
Speaker 2: And then our movie fades to black.

1230
1:45:36,885 --> 1:45:43,894
Speaker 1: How great would it have been if that was the last scene of the movie, as Phil just trendling off into the woods alone and credits just rolled.

1231
1:45:44,155 --> 1:45:47,066
Speaker 2: It would have been better than what they tacked on at the end.

1232
1:45:47,608 --> 1:45:55,896
Speaker 1: I mean, it would have been incredibly melancholy, but it would have been something I would have felt, something it would have left you thinking about it, because that's not what they do here.

1233
1:45:56,005 --> 1:46:02,729
Speaker 2: So at the end of this we're back in the factory and Randy Quaid, charlie and Max Gus they're working on Crime Buster.

1234
1:46:02,950 --> 1:46:06,458
Speaker 2: Apparently they've either been demoted or promoted to work in the motor pool.

1235
1:46:06,706 --> 1:46:09,618
Speaker 2: And then Sister Mary Stigmata, the helicopter pilot.

1236
1:46:09,699 --> 1:46:14,032
Speaker 2: She shows up to give them shit about you know, being alcoholics, which don't knock it to your trite lady.

1237
1:46:14,212 --> 1:46:21,035
Speaker 2: And then Stigmata she says to Max Gus hey, I was talking to people about those robots earlier in the movie.

1238
1:46:21,115 --> 1:46:22,626
Speaker 2: We never found them, I heard.

1239
1:46:22,666 --> 1:46:23,488
Speaker 2: But you found them.

1240
1:46:23,909 --> 1:46:25,012
Speaker 2: What happened to them?

1241
1:46:25,192 --> 1:46:27,397
Speaker 2: Randy Quaid, charlie says that's a funny thing.

1242
1:46:27,726 --> 1:46:28,811
Speaker 2: We don't know what went wrong.

1243
1:46:28,831 --> 1:46:38,983
Speaker 2: We put new battery packs in them and they kept them out functioning and then we like wiped their memory and cleaned them up, but then we'd send them out to the owners and Val would keep trying to have three-way sex with people and they didn't like that.

1244
1:46:39,064 --> 1:46:43,079
Speaker 2: And and Aqua got all pissed off because he was always lying to her.

1245
1:46:43,119 --> 1:46:55,694
Speaker 2: So we just closed the books on him and we chucked him in the trash, cut to the junkyard where Christopher Guest and Melanie Mira, who are living in this trailer amongst mountains of filth.

1246
1:46:56,435 --> 1:47:07,510
Speaker 2: These two are surrounded by Catskill Aqua and Val and Val says you were correct about he says 14 cable, christopher Guest, when you reassembled us.

1247
1:47:07,731 --> 1:47:24,146
Speaker 2: And then Val does like that golf swing thing that assholes do when they don't have a club in their hand, and then we get this wide shot bow where Phil is there with Val and Aqua and they've apparently made a new robot that appears to be his little sister, yeah, and then the movie fades out.

1248
1:47:24,347 --> 1:47:27,813
Speaker 1: It ends with Aqua saying so Phil, this is your sister.

1249
1:47:28,214 --> 1:47:31,099
Speaker 1: Sophia, tickle, tickle, tickle tickle.

1250
1:47:31,665 --> 1:47:38,499
Speaker 1: And Val is like okay, but uh, we're gonna need to get to sit or or get them out of the house somehow.

1251
1:47:38,685 --> 1:47:46,168
Speaker 1: If you and I still want to get busy these weirdos that hang out with us all the time, maybe they can watch your kids.

1252
1:47:50,715 --> 1:47:55,664
Speaker 2: The movie does add one more scene where we cut to Crime Buster.

1253
1:47:55,924 --> 1:47:56,065
Speaker 3: Yep.

1254
1:47:56,105 --> 1:48:01,983
Speaker 2: Who explodes out of the warehouse factory screaming I'm gonna get those some bitches.

1255
1:48:02,023 --> 1:48:07,555
Speaker 4: If it's the last thing I do, get me a Diablo sandwich and a Dr Pepper Junior get the damn car.

1256
1:48:07,716 --> 1:48:13,339
Speaker 1: He blows up some old car because he thinks it's part of their gang and drives off y'all about.

1257
1:48:14,122 --> 1:48:22,467
Speaker 1: I gotta tell you about the microchip gang, the microchip gang and how Crime Buster showed them that crime doesn't pay the end.

1258
1:48:22,587 --> 1:48:26,579
Speaker 2: And then credits roll and is it the worst movie we've ever seen?

1259
1:48:26,780 --> 1:48:27,663
Speaker 2: Probably not.

1260
1:48:27,883 --> 1:48:29,449
Speaker 2: It's a candidate for the most boring.

1261
1:48:29,851 --> 1:48:31,156
Speaker 2: It's immediately forgettable.

1262
1:48:31,256 --> 1:48:32,862
Speaker 2: There's nothing redeemable about it.

1263
1:48:33,063 --> 1:48:36,252
Speaker 2: I can see why Andy Kaufman wanted to personally refund everyone's money.

1264
1:48:36,733 --> 1:48:39,286
Speaker 2: We pay nothing to watch it yeah, you know other than our time.

1265
1:48:39,467 --> 1:48:43,594
Speaker 1: I like I pay $30 a year for Plex, I mean.

1266
1:48:43,954 --> 1:48:45,637
Speaker 2: I paid $0.

1267
1:48:45,998 --> 1:48:51,299
Speaker 2: I watched a couple of commercials for Verbo and some local oil change company.

1268
1:48:51,380 --> 1:48:52,845
Speaker 1: Here's where I challenge this whole.

1269
1:48:52,985 --> 1:48:54,609
Speaker 1: Is this the worst movie we ever saw?

1270
1:48:54,850 --> 1:48:56,754
Speaker 1: And I don't know for sure that it is.

1271
1:48:57,035 --> 1:49:09,752
Speaker 1: But in addition to being boring, it also is, while musically interesting, there is absolutely nothing competent about the script, direction or editing.

1272
1:49:10,173 --> 1:49:13,562
Speaker 2: No, it's a master class in how to not make a good movie.

1273
1:49:13,723 --> 1:49:19,543
Speaker 1: Yeah, like if you want an audience to hate everything about your film, do what heartpeeps did.

1274
1:49:19,824 --> 1:49:25,569
Speaker 2: It feels like they gave a big chunk of money to a first time filmmaker, but they're like I don't know what I'm doing and I figure it out.

1275
1:49:26,231 --> 1:49:36,617
Speaker 1: When we tell you that two to three legendary independent film actors and creators vomiting on each other nude for 15 minutes would have made this movie better.

1276
1:49:36,997 --> 1:49:41,599
Speaker 1: That is true, yes, and that is not the place you want your movie to be Chad.

1277
1:49:42,422 --> 1:49:46,703
Speaker 2: I agree with that, but we have another one on the way, but what's coming up on the next episode of pick six movies?

1278
1:49:46,844 --> 1:49:50,116
Speaker 1: I mean again, they're still making bad movies, chad, so we can't stop yet.

1279
1:49:50,497 --> 1:49:54,891
Speaker 1: We are going to go back Chad to the time in which Disney got weird.

1280
1:49:55,694 --> 1:50:03,278
Speaker 1: They were making things like Peach Dragon, which was part live action and part animation and all strangely sexual.

1281
1:50:03,800 --> 1:50:10,242
Speaker 1: When they were making things like the Black Cauldron, a movie so off putting that they barely even talk about it anymore.

1282
1:50:10,462 --> 1:50:11,606
Speaker 2: I got a few friends like that.

1283
1:50:11,646 --> 1:50:16,194
Speaker 1: But in between, chad, they made a live action space film.

1284
1:50:16,454 --> 1:50:44,687
Speaker 1: Go on, all about everyone's favorite astronomical oddity a black hole, in fact, the black hole, what it stars that guy from, that darn cat and Maximilian shell and a bet, me and Ernest Borg, nine, yes, and a bunch of robots that are goofy and or sinister, and Chad, I don't want to spoil things for you, but the movie ends in, honest to goodness, hell.

1285
1:50:45,048 --> 1:50:48,015
Speaker 2: Really, yes, I've never seen the black hole.

1286
1:50:48,496 --> 1:50:51,804
Speaker 1: It is fucking weird Weirdness.

1287
1:50:51,984 --> 1:50:54,349
Speaker 1: Yes, 100% weirder than this movie.

1288
1:50:55,171 --> 1:50:59,019
Speaker 1: Not only is it weirder than this movie, it's darker than this movie.

1289
1:50:59,265 --> 1:51:08,878
Speaker 1: There is a reason why Disney never touched anything like this again because, short of something wicked, this way comes, which people will forget that was a Disney movie.

1290
1:51:09,078 --> 1:51:09,942
Speaker 2: That's a good movie.

1291
1:51:10,223 --> 1:51:14,618
Speaker 1: It's a great movie, but that movie is less disturbing than the black hole.

1292
1:51:14,799 --> 1:51:20,337
Speaker 2: This is a movie that my wife refuses to watch because it's scarred her so badly as a child.

1293
1:51:20,437 --> 1:51:25,834
Speaker 1: Yeah, it'll freak you the fuck out if you're like under the age of I don't know 38.

1294
1:51:26,135 --> 1:51:27,539
Speaker 2: Well, I'm looking forward to it.

1295
1:51:27,559 --> 1:51:31,050
Speaker 2: Man, we're doing robot movies, so let's get weird.

1296
1:51:31,251 --> 1:51:32,856
Speaker 2: Not too weird, but weird enough.

1297
1:51:32,976 --> 1:51:35,264
Speaker 2: So if you like the show, tell a friend.

1298
1:51:35,304 --> 1:51:36,167
Speaker 2: Like great review?

1299
1:51:36,227 --> 1:51:38,575
Speaker 2: You can email us at pick six movies.

1300
1:51:38,635 --> 1:51:46,500
Speaker 2: We've received a notable number of emails with recommendations for this season and we are strongly considering some of those movies.

1301
1:51:46,601 --> 1:51:47,443
Speaker 1: I have to say Chad.

1302
1:51:47,604 --> 1:51:49,512
Speaker 1: I got recommendations from a listener.

1303
1:51:49,994 --> 1:51:53,086
Speaker 1: I'm absolutely taking at least one of the recommendations from that list.

1304
1:51:53,647 --> 1:51:56,793
Speaker 2: I am going to do the same as well.

1305
1:51:56,953 --> 1:52:09,069
Speaker 2: So thank you for participating in our little show, as well as the debts that we owe to the under lord of the fiery deep bow, any final thoughts that you have on heartbeaps?

1306
1:52:09,270 --> 1:52:12,797
Speaker 1: Look, I'm just saying we can ask Melanie Mayrun if she would be into it.

1307
1:52:13,425 --> 1:52:15,593
Speaker 1: He can watch the kids and the three of us.

1308
1:52:15,633 --> 1:52:16,235
Speaker 1: Can you know?

1309
1:52:16,737 --> 1:52:17,560
Speaker 3: eat, eat, eat eat.

1310
1:52:17,981 --> 1:52:18,503
Speaker 3: I don't think so.

1311
1:52:18,864 --> 1:52:19,245
Speaker 3: Okay, okay.

1312
1:52:21,049 --> 1:52:22,092
Speaker 2: We'll see you in two weeks, everybody.
