Let's get into the episode. 
What? 

13
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:31,920
Everybody, welcome back to the 
Crown Cinema Podcast. 

14
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:33,640
In this episode, we are breaking
down. 

15
00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:37,800
And literally just watched. 
Tropic Thunder. 

16
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:41,880
This is your first time. 
Yeah, actually, I don't know 

17
00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:43,480
why. 
I've started it once before but 

18
00:00:43,480 --> 00:00:45,480
never finished it. 
I think it was late. 

19
00:00:45,480 --> 00:00:48,040
Maybe I just like fell asleep 
like right when it started. 

20
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:51,200
I. 
Can't believe it took you this 

21
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:53,840
long to get to this movie. 
And I only say that because 

22
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:58,040
like, just controversy wise, 
you're a big like Joe Rogan guy.

23
00:00:58,040 --> 00:00:59,240
What? 
It's not a controversial. 

24
00:00:59,240 --> 00:00:59,720
Movie. 
I know. 

25
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,920
I thought you're trying to say 
that I want the controversy. 

26
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:04,680
Oh. 
No, no, no, no, not for the 

27
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:07,720
episode, just for the sake of 
like, you listen to Joe Rogan 

28
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:11,080
and like, wasn't this one of his
biggest episodes was whenever he

29
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:13,680
talked to? 
Was it with Robert Downey 

30
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:14,880
Junior? 
You did have an episode with, 

31
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,240
Yeah, Robert Downey Junior. 
Yeah, and they talked about this

32
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:20,120
and it was like a big thing. 
Yeah, You know, 'cause this is a

33
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:21,800
big movie. 
This is like I mean. 

34
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,280
Star-studded cast. 
Star-studded cast? 

35
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:26,240
Was it 2008? 
So OK. 

36
00:01:26,320 --> 00:01:31,240
Look, cancel culture isn't here.
I don't even think it's close. 

37
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:33,080
We're in the prime of comedy at 
this point. 

38
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:37,400
Yeah. 
But still, this is, this is 

39
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:39,600
pretty wild. 
This is pretty out there to 

40
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,440
make, obviously, Yeah. 
Honestly though, yeah, I get why

41
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,080
it's controversial because 
obviously Robert Down Junior is 

42
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:50,080
in blackface, but he's playing 
an actor that is willing to do 

43
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:51,480
that. 
I understand there's like a 

44
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:52,760
good. 
There's like separation in 

45
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:54,800
reality. 
I absolutely understand 

46
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:59,760
defending it and I obviously 
like under like I get it. 

47
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,800
I get the joke, like I it 
doesn't offend me. 

48
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,160
No, it's not me that's going to 
be offended. 

49
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:12,000
It's but like, can you really 
expect a lot of people to 

50
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,960
understand the joke while 
watching the movie? 

51
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:20,080
I mean, obviously after, well, 
you're, you're depending on 

52
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,320
people like being smart. 
And people always say, like this

53
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,280
movie, you can't make movies 
like this anymore. 

54
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,280
You can make you can make a 
movie like this. 

55
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,480
In fact, this summer I'm going 
into blackface. 

56
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,400
I'm just look like when you're 
talking about the masses of 

57
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:42,120
people, literally everybody, 
that's that's a hard bet to make

58
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:48,120
because what do we say? 
The people are retarded. 

59
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:50,680
Can't go for a retard. 
Yeah, exactly. 

60
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:54,680
And like here just another 
thing, I mean like saying retard

61
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,280
at this point I think you can 
get away with it coming back. 

62
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,600
Yeah, but no, I meant like in 
2008 one. 1000. 

63
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:02,080
Percent. 
I guess you could, yeah. 

64
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:03,480
There's been a. 
Short period of time where that 

65
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:07,400
was like a no no word. 
Regardless, I'm I still think 

66
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,560
it's always been a little 
controversial, like in 

67
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,000
Hollywood. 
I guess I mean some people get 

68
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,320
offended by it. 
Yeah, well, I think people have 

69
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,000
always gotten offended. 
That's what I mean, yeah. 

70
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:23,280
Yeah, and so to have Robert 
Downey Junior in blackface, drop

71
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,200
it like 100 times. 
He's also Iron Man. 

72
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:31,680
He's like the head of the the 
Super, like the biggest. 

73
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:35,600
Now I'm talking about now, but 
even back then, in 2008, is he 

74
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:36,360
not? 
Iron Man? 

75
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,400
Yeah, he is. 
That's pretty insane. 

76
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,280
Like Marvel was like, what is he
doing? 

77
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:44,800
Like, you know, they heard that 
he was playing this role and 

78
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,960
they're like, Iron Man. 
What? 

79
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,600
Yeah, you we're we're building 
an entire franchise around this 

80
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,360
guy. 
Like we plan he's a billionaire 

81
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,120
because of these movies and. 
We're about to go extremely 

82
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,080
politically correct. 
Yeah, and we're and we're going 

83
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,520
deep. 
Like he we can't just replace 

84
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,440
him. 
You know, people love Iron Man 

85
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,080
because it's also like a 
comeback story for Robert Downey

86
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,080
Junior. 
Yeah, he's like finally got his 

87
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,880
career like to a really good 
spot, blackface. 

88
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:15,440
Yeah. 
So wow, that was so disgusting. 

89
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,720
We just came out of a bar, but I
was just, you know, so it's 

90
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,959
crazy. 
The humor is perfect. 

91
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,240
Ben Stiller is a genius for this
movie. 

92
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,560
It is awesome. 
He is making fun of everybody, 

93
00:04:26,840 --> 00:04:29,440
and if you get it, you get it. 
If you don't though. 

94
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,360
It's funny 'cause it's like a 
silly comedy movie, but it also 

95
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,960
kind of hits all like the 
Vietnam War movie or just war 

96
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,120
movie in general tropes. 
It's so bad. 

97
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,680
You got the music, got the 
helicopter flying in. 

98
00:04:39,840 --> 00:04:42,880
You have it opens on a crazy 
battle. 

99
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:44,760
Even though it's a fictional 
battle, they're shooting the 

100
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:48,120
movie, you know, it still was 
like Saving Private Ryan where 

101
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:49,640
it's like blood's going 
everywhere. 

102
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:54,440
Everybody's in shock. 
You know, you have them walking 

103
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,520
through the wilderness, the 
rain, like he's like Rambo, 

104
00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:58,680
basically. 
They have like a Rambo shot. 

105
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:00,360
Like it's a bunch of different 
tropes in the movie. 

106
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:02,600
That's you have the one liners 
that Jack Black says. 

107
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:06,080
You know, it's just very much 
it's all the war movie moments. 

108
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:10,800
Like, 'cause you only see Jack 
Black do his character's voice, 

109
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,400
like, I think twice. 
Yeah, he's like, when I get back

110
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,560
to that, I can't even do it. 
I can't. 

111
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:18,760
I'm just going to accidentally 
do Robert Downey Junior. 

112
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:25,320
Yeah, it's also, it's really 
funny seeing Jack Black play a 

113
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,640
character like this, knowing his
career mostly being like a kid 

114
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,840
movie actor. 
Like he's 90% of his movies, 

115
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:35,480
maybe like 80, but majority of 
his movies are him playing a 

116
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,960
character for children. 
Yeah, in Kung Fu Panda. 

117
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,200
He Jumanji. 
Minecraft movie. 

118
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:44,800
Yeah, he's Bowser, I think, and 
Mario Bowser. 

119
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,920
He did School of Rock. 
It's a great movie. 

120
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:51,760
That's a great movie. 
I haven't seen it in forever but

121
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:56,200
like I think that Jack Black 
used to be casted as like a 

122
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:58,320
villain in the 90s. 
Really. 

123
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,920
I think I might be getting him 
mixed up with somebody else, but

124
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,120
I'm pretty sure I just saw this 
like a few days ago. 

125
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:05,000
If we can look that. 
Up. 

126
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:06,520
He has so many movies, it's 
going to be hard. 

127
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,480
But like, just go look, kind of 
in the 90s, I think he played 

128
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:15,960
almost like a bully, which is 
obviously weird for us to think 

129
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,960
about because yeah, I definitely
am just like, oh, that's Kung Fu

130
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:22,080
Panda and the Jumanji guy. 
Yeah, exactly. 

131
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:27,840
But obviously, I mean, Tenacious
D is not like a kids movie, 

132
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:30,040
obviously. 
Yeah. 

133
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:34,520
All right. 
Oh my God, he's Nacho Libre. 203

134
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:40,040
Oh yeah, no 203 acting credits. 
Let's go to the 90s. 

135
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:44,320
God dude, Jack Black's a killer.
He just pops up like his little 

136
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:48,440
side rolls in a bunch of things.
All right, look at this. 

137
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,040
Multiple projects. 
I don't even want to. 

138
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:54,280
We're not going to be able to 
find anything. 

139
00:06:54,280 --> 00:06:57,480
No, it's going to be too hard. 
But let me tell you this, when 

140
00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,920
it comes to Tropic Thunder, and 
I'm not kidding when I say this,

141
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:05,640
I am dead serious when I say 
this, he puts on a Leonardo 

142
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,800
DiCaprio Basketball Diaries 
performance. 

143
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:15,080
I know that it's funny and it is
funny, but he is really good at 

144
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,800
playing a drug addict. 
Yeah, he is like a hilarious 

145
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:19,560
drug addict. 
Like you have that comedy part 

146
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,720
of it, but. 
I think that if I think that if 

147
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:26,840
Jack Black had to play a serious
role as a drug addict, I think 

148
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:30,880
he could absolutely do it. 
But he is phenomenal in this 

149
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:32,520
movie. 
I think that's like just the 

150
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,120
other thing is like, thank God 
that you get a star-studded cast

151
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:38,520
like this making a comedy film 
and it actually is funny. 

152
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,120
But Jack Black, like just 
focusing on his character right 

153
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:45,200
now, like just that line when 
he's tied to the tree, he's 

154
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,400
like, OK guys, I think I'm good,
Don't ignore me. 

155
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:50,120
Yeah, he's OK. 
Pick up some bugs, Bray. 

156
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:54,560
Don't ignore me. 
Also him being tied to the tree 

157
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,200
is so funny because why did they
strip him to his underwear? 

158
00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,840
Yeah, why I? 
Didn't have to do that, like 

159
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,800
obviously the next day, like he 
had to be kind of in his 

160
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,480
underwear when they deliver him,
but they didn't have to do that 

161
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,480
to him overnight. 
So a story on set. 

162
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:13,120
Jack Black lost his cool and 
stormed off set filming this 

163
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:14,000
movie. 
Wait in. 

164
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:15,880
Really. 
Real life like he was pissed off

165
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:17,600
and stormed off. 
What scene? 

166
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:21,200
It was a scene whenever they had
the water Buffalo and he's going

167
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,320
to be on it and they're going to
carry him off because they tie 

168
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:24,840
him to it, right? 
Because he can't walk anymore. 

169
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,160
He's going through horrible 
withdrawals, horrible heroin 

170
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:31,920
withdrawals. 
So he's Jack Black, has a fear 

171
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:33,919
of animals. 
Like he's even scared of dogs, 

172
00:08:34,039 --> 00:08:35,679
which just seems kind of out of 
character for him. 

173
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,120
You think he'd be like a really 
big dog lover because of his 

174
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:43,799
fun, happy personality. 
I I, I wouldn't say fun happy 

175
00:08:43,799 --> 00:08:45,520
personality. 
I feel like Jack Black is just 

176
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:47,920
like sporadic like weird. 
But he has to. 

177
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,320
But that's why he doesn't like 
animals, because of the unknown 

178
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:51,680
nature of what an animal could 
do. 

179
00:08:51,680 --> 00:08:52,760
You don't know what they're 
thinking. 

180
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:54,520
So he's like a little fearful of
animals. 

181
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:55,920
I don't think I've ever heard 
this. 

182
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:59,240
Before he said he he literally 
said I'm scared of dogs. 

183
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,920
Like I just don't. 
I'm out of Animal Guy, which is 

184
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,920
crazy for Jack Black. 
That's crazy for anybody. 

185
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:10,120
That's crazy for any American to
like, just be absolutely 

186
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:13,360
petrified, terrified of all 
animals of all kinds. 

187
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:15,920
So it was during a rehearsal 
take with when you had to get on

188
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:18,440
the water Buffalo, which is a 
freaking giant animal. 

189
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,320
It's like a scary looking cow. 
Giant, giant horns. 

190
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:22,200
You know, we see it in the 
movie. 

191
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,600
Obviously can like actually do 
damage. 

192
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:26,400
Yeah, yeah, that would make 
sense. 

193
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,960
So when he gets on this water 
Buffalo, his fear of animals 

194
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:33,000
kind of, I guess, rubbed off on 
that water Buffalo. 

195
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:36,480
And so when he got on, he could 
feel the water Buffalo seemed 

196
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,880
sort of uncomfortable. 
Oh, oh, the Buffalo was feeling 

197
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:41,840
like the anxiety. 
Yeah, yeah, OK. 

198
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:45,080
So it started to feel weird. 
And so whenever they go, it's 

199
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:46,760
the rehearsal takes. 
They're not really filming much.

200
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:50,360
And so he gets on it, It starts 
bucking like crazy and then it 

201
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:53,120
bugs him off. 
He said he did a flip and 

202
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,800
miraculously landed between two 
boulders and like, didn't get 

203
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:57,240
injured. 
Like he landed upright between 

204
00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:59,200
two boulders and didn't get 
didn't get injured. 

205
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,280
And when you stand there in 
shock, he hears bad Steeler go, 

206
00:10:02,560 --> 00:10:04,240
Hey, what's going on? 
Are we cutting? 

207
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:06,480
Hey, Jack, run it from the top. 
We we didn't get that. 

208
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:09,560
And Jack Black being in shock 
was like, you fucking take it 

209
00:10:09,560 --> 00:10:11,200
from the top. 
You fucking get on that water 

210
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,200
Buffalo. 
And then he stormed off through 

211
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:15,320
his trailer because like he saw 
his life flash before his eyes. 

212
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:17,520
Like it was just a horrifying 
moment for him. 

213
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:18,920
I. 
Told you I don't like fucking 

214
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:20,920
animals. 
So he goes back to his trailer 

215
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,280
to cool down, not wanting to the
movie anymore and then he, you 

216
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,080
know, simmer down and went back 
to do. 

217
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,600
It yeah, maybe go do some heroin
because we're method actors 

218
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:28,600
around here. 
Exactly. 

219
00:10:28,680 --> 00:10:29,880
And then so he. 
Never heard this. 

220
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,960
So the so we had a stuntman get 
on the water Buffalo instead. 

221
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:36,640
But what they didn't know, 
months later they found out that

222
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:40,400
that water Buffalo was pregnant 
and that's why it was all 

223
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:41,960
finicky and get. 
Off of me. 

224
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:44,200
Yeah, I'm pregnant. 
I'm trying to protect my baby. 

225
00:10:44,560 --> 00:10:46,280
Bro. 
I don't know how the animal 

226
00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:49,000
people didn't catch that the 
water Buffalo was pregnant. 

227
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:50,760
You don't think they would like?
Test that stuff you. 

228
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:54,360
Don't understand how the animal 
people didn't do their job. 

229
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:58,000
Exactly. 
And so they that's wow. 

230
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:01,200
And so what's kind of cool about
this story is whenever that 

231
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:03,880
water Buffalo baby was born, 
they named it Jack. 

232
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:07,560
That's cute. 
So we got a traumatic 

233
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:10,600
experience, and now he's got a 
little water Buffalo named after

234
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:12,360
him. 
Yeah, it almost killed him. 

235
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:15,240
What they do, like walk into a 
little room, they're like, hey 

236
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,920
Jack, like meet your, meet your 
little boy. 

237
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:19,440
There's like, get that fucking 
animal. 

238
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:23,040
Out of here, yeah. 
Dude, yeah, I've never heard 

239
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:24,960
that before. 
Hey guys, this episode is 

240
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,720
sponsored by Loch Lab. 
It is a tiny little pill that I 

241
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,160
take that has helped grow my 
hair back out. 

242
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,560
Saved Grey's life. 
A lot of people were saying 

243
00:11:32,560 --> 00:11:33,920
like. 
Oh, he went to Turkey. 

244
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:35,960
Blah blah blah. 
First off, no. 

245
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:37,720
Gray cannot afford to go to 
Turkey. 

246
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:39,560
Yeah, I don't know what kind of 
money you think we're this 

247
00:11:39,560 --> 00:11:42,280
podcast is making us, but I'm 
not able to just fly out to 

248
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:44,880
Turkey. 
No, it was literally my hair was

249
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:47,320
gone. 
In fact, did you know this? 

250
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,000
Doctors say by the time most men
notice hair loss, they've 

251
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,080
already lost 50% of their hair's
density. 

252
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:56,160
Whoa. 
Which, if you really look back 

253
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,800
at my case, completely true. 
It was bad. 

254
00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:01,520
Cade told me. 
Hey man, it's gone, you may as 

255
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:03,080
well just accept it. 
And I did. 

256
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,880
I did. 
I accepted the bald look for 

257
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,120
like a year and a half. 
Then I heard about lock lab, 

258
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:12,080
decided I'd give it a shot. 
Within like 3 months my hair was

259
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:13,400
back to normal. 
I didn't have faith. 

260
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:15,800
I thought, great, it's it's over
dude, just give it up man. 

261
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:19,200
I was fully prepared to just do 
a bunch of Jason Statham 

262
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,600
costumes for Halloween for the 
rest of my life. 

263
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:23,440
I was prepared to say I'm the 
big caper. 

264
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:25,200
But no, I don't have to do that 
anymore. 

265
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,200
And it's all because of Lock 
Lab. 

266
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:29,800
I'm no longer embarrassed to 
walk outside with Grey, go to 

267
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,760
places and do some women. 
It's so much easier for me now 

268
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:36,280
as your wing man. 
Yeah, I didn't realize it was so

269
00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:37,280
hard. 
For you but. 

270
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:39,960
When you have like a nice set of
hair like me and you're going 

271
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:43,280
out to the bars trying to hook 
you up with the lady because I 

272
00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,280
already have a lady, so I tried 
to hook you up with the lady 

273
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,360
just sees my flow hair and I'm 
like, no, no, no, I'm I'm 

274
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:51,280
married my friend over there and
I point to you and you're bald. 

275
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:54,280
It's like it's hard to get him 
over there. 

276
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,520
I I honestly the ball wasn't 
even bad. 

277
00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:59,280
I think it was way worse when I 
was trying to hang on to the 

278
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:02,240
hair when it was clearly shot. 
But your new hair looks 

279
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:06,360
phenomenal, I'll tell you that. 
So yeah, go to lock lab, give it

280
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,280
a shot. 
Did wonders for me. 

281
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:10,000
I think it'll do wonders for 
you. 

282
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:15,480
This OK is aren't they making? 
Fun of a apoc Apocalypse Now. 

283
00:13:15,560 --> 00:13:19,440
They're oh, that was some of the
also tropes is kind of tying in.

284
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:22,960
The pops like the big thing. 
With with Ben Stiller going into

285
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,520
too deep into the jungle and 
like kind of feeling he's belong

286
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,280
with these people, you know, 
losing himself in the jungle is 

287
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:31,160
that kind of war trope as well. 
Yeah, we haven't, we haven't 

288
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:34,920
covered Apocalypse Now. 
I think we we were talking about

289
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:38,360
it when when Robert Duvall 
passed, we kind of entertained 

290
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:39,880
the idea. 
We'll do it eventually. 

291
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:43,160
But I do know that like kind of 
the big thing that was going on 

292
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:48,040
in that set was like. 
Marlon Brando. 

293
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:51,560
Yes. 
And the director, Francis? 

294
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:53,480
Francis Ford Coppola. 
Thank you. 

295
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:54,680
Yeah. 
What the fuck? 

296
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:58,120
I think I was too nervous to say
his last name and just be 

297
00:13:58,120 --> 00:13:59,960
completely wrong. 
I think I was about to say 

298
00:13:59,960 --> 00:14:02,840
Coppola. 
Yeah. 

299
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:04,880
Like, wasn't that the big thing 
that was going on, Apocalypse 

300
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:06,280
Now? 
Like, they just wore butting 

301
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:07,480
heads. 
They were not getting along. 

302
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:11,400
And I think based on what I'd 
read, it just sounded like 

303
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,400
Marlon Brando had like a cocaine
problem and. 

304
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:18,080
I think, and I think he was 
supposed to be like a war hero 

305
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:19,720
kind of looking guy, but he got 
fat and. 

306
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,080
He was super out of shape. 
And so he was pissed off. 

307
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:24,200
Like dude, you're not a fucking.
War here he wasn't he wasn't 

308
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:28,520
memorizing lines which is 
discussed in this movie when Jay

309
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:32,200
his character is like did y'all 
read the book and they were 

310
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,440
like. 
What I read the net cover. 

311
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:36,200
Yeah, yeah. 
And he was like, OK, well, like 

312
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,720
it's the same as in the script. 
And they all look away and he's 

313
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,720
like, y'all read the script 
right Already script, script 

314
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:43,760
reads me. 
But like, I think that's them 

315
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,760
making fun of Marlon Brando, 
like showing up to Apocalypse 

316
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:49,080
Now. 
Huge budget. 

317
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,320
You know, Vietnam War is also 
still like fresh on everybody's 

318
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:54,160
mind. 
So like this is very kind of 

319
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:58,160
Saving Private Ryan how we were 
talking about, you know, this 

320
00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:01,920
isn't some BS movie. 
This is we're kind of paying 

321
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:04,480
some respect. 
We're also showing the the 

322
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:07,920
travesties of what war just 
looks like in general and Marlon

323
00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:10,400
Brando just shows up all fucked 
up fat and doesn't know his 

324
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,920
lines. 
Yeah, yeah, as literally Francis

325
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,320
Ford Coppola is putting his 
entire life on the line for this

326
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,760
movie. 
Are you fucking kidding me? 

327
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:20,520
But hey, it, you know, worked 
out. 

328
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,040
It worked out. 
Yeah, because his character's 

329
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,880
actually pretty sick. 
He's definitely, I mean, Robert 

330
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:29,080
Duvall has a really awesome 
character of like, dude, we got 

331
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:34,640
like a Mr. Mr. Miyagi like more 
than Brando and Apocalypse Now. 

332
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,360
But yeah, so I think Tropic 
Thunder like that, that's like 

333
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:38,680
the main thing that they're 
doing. 

334
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:41,480
And they talk about in the movie
Tropic Thunder, the fictional 

335
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:44,480
version is the most expensive 
war film ever filmed. 

336
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:46,440
Now, I don't know the budget, we
can look this up in a second, 

337
00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:51,040
but I do know that the. 
For for Tropic Thunder, yeah. 

338
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:56,880
But the the set designer, he 
went into incredible detail. 

339
00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:59,200
They filmed this in Hawaii. 
There was like places in Hawaii 

340
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,680
that look like Vietnam. 
They wouldn't film there, but 

341
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:05,080
they had to like it was all just
jungle set a clear out jungle do

342
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:08,200
construction lays, you know, 
gravel roads down everything. 

343
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,320
Like it was a crazy set getting.
Pricey. 

344
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:14,560
And I don't even think they use 
this in the movie, but there's a

345
00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:16,080
bar. 
I think they cut it from the 

346
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:17,480
movie. 
There's a scene when in the 

347
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,680
credit scene when Jack Black's 
like dancing on the pole with 

348
00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:23,360
like the gorillas dancing. 
They obviously filmed that 

349
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:24,680
scene, but it didn't make this 
movie. 

350
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:28,680
But that set was like meticulous
details where the bar would have

351
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:30,160
everything a bar would actually 
have. 

352
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:32,680
We stuff you can't even see. 
It's just there, the little 

353
00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:34,800
decorations in details like it 
felt so lived in. 

354
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:38,760
This guy went to extreme amounts
of effort to make this place 

355
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:41,080
look as real as possible. 
Doesn't even make it the movie. 

356
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:42,640
Doesn't even make it. 
In the movie, yeah. 

357
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:44,080
I mean, that's that's that's 
showbiz. 

358
00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:47,840
That is quite literally showbiz.
Maybe he built a, it's called a 

359
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:51,720
napalm shot where they had like 
little palm trees on like clay 

360
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,480
stands that look like sand and 
they had an airplane fly over 

361
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:57,920
and would drop lighter fluid and
fire over the palm trees. 

362
00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:00,400
Like, you know they would bomb 
with napalm. 

363
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:02,360
You mean like what they did in 
Apocalypse Now? 

364
00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:03,760
Like. 
They did in the Vietnam War. 

365
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:07,319
That too, unfortunately. 
Unfortunately. 

366
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,200
Sorry, I was just you say napalm
and we were talking about 

367
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:12,640
Apocalypse Now. 
So I just automatically hear 

368
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:15,839
Robert Duvall saying like, I 
love the smell of napalm in the 

369
00:17:15,839 --> 00:17:16,760
morning. 
Iconic. 

370
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:19,800
So they, you know, just crazy 
detail. 

371
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,480
They went in this set to make it
look as real as possible, which 

372
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,560
is pretty cool. 
The trailers that they did, kind

373
00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:26,839
of the same thing we were 
talking about. 

374
00:17:26,839 --> 00:17:30,840
I think they like went all out 
for those trailers, like they 

375
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:33,800
just building those sets. 
Hiring the real trailer voice 

376
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:35,160
you were. 
Talking about like when we were 

377
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:37,560
watching it, like Jack Black, 
like how much that would suck, 

378
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:40,360
that would suck like and that's.
Character. 

379
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:45,520
And that's just for, like, a 
32nd trailer, right in this 

380
00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:47,320
movie. 
And Jack Black went through. 

381
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:52,280
That's kind of amount to, like, 
full days of makeup. 

382
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:54,200
Yeah. 
Air makeup. 

383
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:57,360
That one little trailer took 
many days to film, probably. 

384
00:17:58,160 --> 00:17:59,640
Yeah, just yeah. 
Yeah. 

385
00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,480
So that's showbiz, baby. 
Showbiz. 

386
00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:04,080
That's showbiz. 
All right, let's see what this 

387
00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:08,880
Tropic Thunder budget was. 
Tropic Thunder was $92 million. 

388
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:11,120
The fat budget for a comedy 
movie. 

389
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:13,760
It will, you know. 
It's not. 

390
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:19,360
It's categorized as a comedy 
slash war movie. 

391
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:23,080
Yep, comedy war. 
Yeah, so if you're making a war 

392
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:24,840
movie, you got to be able to pay
the big bucks. 

393
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:28,760
Gross approximately $195 million
worldwide. 

394
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:31,440
OK. 
Huge success. 

395
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:34,000
Yeah, I mean, that makes sense. 
Play. 

396
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:38,440
RDJ and blackface again. 
Yeah, well, I know. 

397
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:41,920
OK, Obviously we have to talk 
about this. 

398
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:43,800
Tom Cruise. 
Yep. 

399
00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:47,040
Oh my God. 
Amazing character, Yeah, iconic 

400
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,200
character. 
So iconic that on MTV there's an

401
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:55,640
MTV Awards and it said hosted by
Les Grossman or or produced by 

402
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:56,920
Les Grossman. 
Yeah. 

403
00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:58,560
So like, they had like little 
scenes in little. 

404
00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:00,120
There's the one with Robert 
Pattinson. 

405
00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:01,640
Really. 
It's pretty fun. 

406
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:02,960
Let's watch it. 
It's pretty funny. 

407
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:07,400
But like, you know, they almost 
did a spin off of Les Grossman's

408
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:09,680
character. 
It it's still not. 

409
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:13,120
Oh yeah, wait, I think I heard. 
About that, it was like. 

410
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,840
Not totally off the table. 
I can't think of a guy's name, 

411
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:19,240
McGuire or something. 
I think Mcqueary, the dude that 

412
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:23,080
did the last four Mission 
Impossible movies, OK, you 

413
00:19:23,120 --> 00:19:25,680
obviously with Tom Cruise, one 
of the three projects they were 

414
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,760
talking about making is like a 
Les Grossman movie. 

415
00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:31,880
Like that's if it may come to 
light, it may not. 

416
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,240
It's just. 
It's the fact that like Tom 

417
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:37,080
Cruise, like I think they kept 
it a secret that he was even 

418
00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:40,080
going to be in the movie. 
And so him showing up and he's 

419
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:44,400
got these big hands, got the 
bald head and he delivers a 

420
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:50,320
performance. 
And I, I think like I've heard 

421
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:54,920
that when he accepted the role, 
he was like, I want him to, I 

422
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:57,320
want him to have big hands and I
want him to dance. 

423
00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,960
No, he didn't even accept, just 
accept the role. 

424
00:19:59,960 --> 00:20:01,480
Tom Cruise created this 
character. 

425
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:03,000
No. 
This was not written in the 

426
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:06,560
script he. 
Went and found Ben's like what 

427
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:08,360
he heard that this movie was 
being made and. 

428
00:20:08,360 --> 00:20:11,400
Tom Cruise was supposed to play 
Matthew Mcconaughey's character.

429
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:14,760
But when Tom Cruise is reading 
the scripts, actually I just 

430
00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:20,120
quoted, he said that he felt 
there was a structural 

431
00:20:20,120 --> 00:20:21,800
compression missing on the 
characters. 

432
00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:24,600
And so he created and told 
Minnesota to have a the Les 

433
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,920
Grossman character to add more 
pressure onto the characters to 

434
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:30,720
make it more intense on them. 
So he created this character to 

435
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:33,680
have like a bigger presence of 
like an antagonist in the movie 

436
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:36,920
because he didn't feel like 
there was enough pressure on 

437
00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:38,240
these characters. 
So he created him. 

438
00:20:38,360 --> 00:20:41,960
And like he said, his demands 
were I want fat hands and I want

439
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,320
to be able to dance. 
Dude, see that quote right 

440
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:47,440
there? 
It just like making movies is 

441
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:50,880
fucking cool because you'd think
that like making a comedy movie 

442
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:53,440
like this, it's just a bunch of 
dip shits going off script and 

443
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:55,520
that's it. 
Like Tom Cruise building a 

444
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:59,560
character because he needed like
to feel a bigger antagonist 

445
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:03,360
presence on screen. 
Like that's the most Tom Cruise 

446
00:21:03,360 --> 00:21:05,160
thing ever. 
Just levelling of everything 

447
00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:07,200
he's in. 
But not only that, about Tom 

448
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:10,080
Cruise. 
The movie run he was on leading 

449
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:11,640
up to this movie is actually 
insane. 

450
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:13,400
Like he was on this incredible 
run. 

451
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,440
And then does Les Grossman like 
kind of out of nowhere, which is

452
00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:17,360
kind of funny. 
Tom Cruise has always been an 

453
00:21:17,360 --> 00:21:21,320
action star, dramatic role 
plays, now this funny comedy 

454
00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:23,560
character, but he's not really 
doing comedy. 

455
00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:26,280
He's playing Les Grossman pretty
serious. 

456
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:29,000
Like it's really intense. 
It's just the absurdity of the 

457
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,840
character that makes it funny. 
But he's not being funny. 

458
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:35,320
That's out of the dancing. 
Look, you know, we, we did all 

459
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:38,280
of the Mission Impossible movies
and I remember kind of joking 

460
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:42,920
about like at at one point in 
the Alec Baldwin one where 

461
00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:47,840
they're like kind of talking 
shit about Ethan Hunt and Tom 

462
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,600
Cruise. 
It told clearly like had his 

463
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:52,520
hand in the fact of like, OK, 
that's enough. 

464
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,600
They're being really mean to 
Ethan Hunt now. 

465
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:56,320
Alec Baldwin needs to say nice 
things. 

466
00:21:56,840 --> 00:22:00,640
So we know that Tom Cruise takes
himself pretty seriously as an 

467
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:03,160
actor, as he should. 
He's he's damn good and he's 

468
00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:06,360
done a lot for the industry, so 
he kind of gets away with stuff 

469
00:22:06,360 --> 00:22:11,440
like that. 
So to see him just do this, it's

470
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:13,800
funny. 
It's just really funny. 

471
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:17,520
It's a spin on he's taking 
inspiration with his character 

472
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:19,520
Les Grossman. 
It's like a gross man. 

473
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:23,680
Our our friend of the show, 
Harvey Weinstein, he's 

474
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:28,800
definitely basking it off the 
show, Harvey Weinstein, Timmy D 

475
00:22:29,360 --> 00:22:33,960
and then and also this other, I 
forget the other executive who 

476
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:37,040
is notorious for being a really 
brutal and mean guy. 

477
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:40,480
So he's kind of taken and 
spreads from those two guys of 

478
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:43,040
how he talks on the phone to 
people just how brutal he is. 

479
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:46,320
So like, he's kind of making fun
of those studio executives that 

480
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:48,600
were brutal. 
He also, and I didn't realize it

481
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:50,960
until we just watched it this 
time, but like, I've never 

482
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:54,360
picked up on this, but like he 
pretty much does a Matthew 

483
00:22:54,360 --> 00:22:56,800
McConaughey impression to 
Matthew McConaughey. 

484
00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,800
When? 
Just whenever he's like kind of 

485
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:03,760
talking about like, do you feel 
that like when he's pretty much 

486
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:06,200
convincing him like, we're going
to let Ben Stiller die, He's 

487
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:07,920
like, this is the fun part. 
Yeah. 

488
00:23:08,120 --> 00:23:10,240
If you we should go back and 
watch it. 

489
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:13,560
He's just saying a bunch of shit
that like Matthew McConaughey 

490
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:16,040
would say true. 
And the camera just like kind of

491
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:18,760
panning back to Matthew 
McConaughey, like being stunt. 

492
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,160
Is. 
Matthew McConaughey was like 

493
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:26,120
holy shit, this is trippy. 
I got Tom Cruise doing me as a 

494
00:23:26,120 --> 00:23:29,240
fat guy with big hands. 
That's like dances like on A Few

495
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:32,640
Good Men when Tom Cruise did an 
impression of Jack Nicholson, 

496
00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:35,200
you know, making fun of the 
character but doing a Jack 

497
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:36,960
Nicholson impression. 
That was improv that made the 

498
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:38,680
characters actually laugh on A 
Few Good Men. 

499
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:41,480
All right, but movie run for Tom
Cruise leading up to this movie.

500
00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:47,680
This is in 2008. 2001, Vanilla 
Sky 2002, Minority Report great 

501
00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:53,520
movie. 2003, The Last Samurai, 
2000, It's a great movie. 

502
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:55,960
We need to do that movie. 
We got to do that movie, bro. 

503
00:23:56,120 --> 00:23:58,120
This is the director of that Ed 
Zwick right here. 

504
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:02,080
He made the last name Bro 2004 
collateral. 

505
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:07,760
We have done that movie. 2005 
War of the Worlds, 2006 Mission 

506
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,520
Impossible Three. 
He had one movie that flopped in

507
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:12,160
2007. 
Nobody really liked it. 

508
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:17,040
With Meryl Streep I believe. 
And then Tropic Thunder. 

509
00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:21,920
So an insane run he's going on 
in the early 2000s and then goes

510
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:24,240
on to be a giant action star 
after Mission Impossible Three. 

511
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,120
Obviously kind of stuck mostly 
to action after that. 

512
00:24:27,360 --> 00:24:32,880
I kind of forgot that Tom Cruise
just did like he. 

513
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:34,800
He's a really good actor. 
My bad. 

514
00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:37,680
He's got a resume. 
Like I'm I, oh God, that came 

515
00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:40,640
out so bad just now. 
No, I'm just thinking like, 

516
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:44,320
obviously a few good men, great 
dramatic role and like the first

517
00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:46,960
Top Gun, like that's not like a 
total action movie. 

518
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:48,880
He's definitely got some acting 
chops. 

519
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:53,640
This isn't his first time 
getting in touch with Vietnam as

520
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:55,480
far as a movie goes, because he 
also did. 

521
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:57,760
I think it's called the 4th of 
July. 

522
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:00,440
Do you know what that one is 
about? 

523
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:01,920
I. 
Haven't seen it but I I've heard

524
00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:03,520
of that movie. 
Actually, I haven't, I haven't 

525
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:05,680
seen it either, but I know like 
a lot of people are like, oh 

526
00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:08,040
dude, you got to you got to 
cover that one because it's 

527
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:11,120
like, I think a pretty, pretty 
fucked up movie. 

528
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:14,600
But I think he just goes to 
Vietnam and then I think he 

529
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:19,280
loses his legs like so before he
goes to Vietnam, he's playing 

530
00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:23,120
like the cool, charismatic Tom 
Cruise that we all know that he 

531
00:25:23,120 --> 00:25:25,640
can play. 
Then he goes to Vietnam, lose 

532
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:28,680
his legs, comes back. 
And you know, and I think it's 

533
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:31,240
touching based on the fact that 
like the United States didn't 

534
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,000
really support veterans at that 
time. 

535
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:37,200
And so I think he just 
completely flips the the script 

536
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,560
or he he flips a switch as far 
as Tom Cruise goes. 

537
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:43,880
And I think he's like, like just
a really fucked up character. 

538
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:48,120
So then for him to do that 
Vietnam movie. 

539
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:51,680
And then this. 
One this one they just need to 

540
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:53,800
show him he's like. 
Yeah, I need, I don't know. 

541
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:58,520
You know, it was kind of funny. 
Yeah, and but so also Tom Cruise

542
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:00,760
being taking his roles very 
seriously. 

543
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:04,000
He took hip hop classes in 
preparation for Les Courseman 

544
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:04,560
dancing. 
He's. 

545
00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:06,840
Got some good moves. 
Tom Cruise says with any movie 

546
00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:09,440
or anything he's doing, he 
always signs up for classes to 

547
00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:12,800
get better at the skill that's 
required for whatever the thing 

548
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:14,600
he's doing is. 
So he's like constantly 

549
00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:17,200
learning. 
I mean small things like hip hop

550
00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:20,120
classes for Les Grossman, 
literally taking those classes 

551
00:26:20,120 --> 00:26:22,480
just to have some moves ready to
go when he wants to dance. 

552
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:26,520
Yeah, no, I and honestly, like, 
I appreciate that because 

553
00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:31,200
especially with a movie like 
this and Robert Downey Junior 

554
00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:35,280
has to do it as well, but like, 
in order for it to work, there 

555
00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:39,120
can't be a slip up. 
Like every scene, everything, 

556
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:42,720
everything that you say in this 
movie as Tom Cruise and Robert 

557
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:46,360
Downey Junior has to hit can't 
be corny in the slightest. 

558
00:26:46,360 --> 00:26:50,880
Otherwise it just sucks. 
So yeah, dude, like if I'm Tom 

559
00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:53,800
Cruise, I would also do that as 
well. 

560
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:55,960
I would take the classes to make
sure like, all right. 

561
00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:59,080
Like it's either funny or it's 
not. 

562
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,400
You know, it's comedy and people
are either going to laugh at 

563
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:04,960
this or they're not. 
So I'm going to pull this up 

564
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:09,200
first before we go to the Les 
Grossman MTV skit, the whole 

565
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:11,520
app. 
So Ben Stiller wasn't super 

566
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:14,160
bought in on the dancing thing. 
He said Tom Cruise said he 

567
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,280
wanted to dance and he was like,
OK, I mean, that's cool. 

568
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:17,600
But like, it doesn't really fit 
in the script. 

569
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:18,720
I don't really know where we 
would do it. 

570
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,360
And so they did a makeup test 
with Tom Cruise. 

571
00:27:23,120 --> 00:27:27,320
And during the makeup test, Tom 
Cruise starts dancing just to 

572
00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:29,080
show Ben Stiller. 
Like, look, this is hilarious. 

573
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:30,600
Like let me just do this, like, 
come on. 

574
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:32,120
So they wrote that into the 
script. 

575
00:27:32,120 --> 00:27:36,880
And then this test, this makeup 
test, because this, so this 

576
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:40,480
makeup test is why at the end of
the movie, there's that Les 

577
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:43,760
Grossman dance for the credits. 
It's because of this screen 

578
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:45,160
test. 
Like you'll see the screen test 

579
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:48,800
and it's literally kind of the 
same exact thing as the ending 

580
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:50,560
of this movie. 
OK. 

581
00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:53,880
This is the screen test and it's
not a screen test because 

582
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:55,520
obviously you don't screen test 
Tom Cruise. 

583
00:27:55,520 --> 00:28:00,160
This was a makeup test that Tom 
did that we the first time we 

584
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:02,520
put him on film in the makeup. 
And you'll see that the makeup 

585
00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:05,480
isn't isn't what we ended up 
with in the movie, but it is 

586
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:07,720
where he first started dancing. 
I said, look, I'd love to play 

587
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,880
this character, but I want to 
have fat hands and I'm going to 

588
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,080
dance. 
And he'd always said to me that 

589
00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:14,640
he felt like the character 
should dance. 

590
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,080
And I said, OK, that's cool. 
You know, I didn't quite know 

591
00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:18,840
how it would work in the movie 
because there wasn't any dancing

592
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:20,640
in the script. 
I remember about a couple of 

593
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,000
months, he kept saying, you 
know, maybe we don't do the 

594
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:24,440
makeup and maybe you just look 
at yourself. 

595
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:26,600
I said no, Ben. 
I said I really I need fat hands

596
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:30,240
at the. 
Makeup test Tom started doing 

597
00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:32,280
these moves and there was number
music laying. 

598
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:33,480
He just started doing this 
little dance. 

599
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,680
We did the makeup test and I 
just started showing him. 

600
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:38,400
We just, you know, as you are 
working on a character, you 

601
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:41,040
start becoming that character, 
you start discovering the 

602
00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,040
character and I just. 
I said, oh, Kee doing that, 

603
00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:45,280
That's funny. 
And he just went with it and he 

604
00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:47,240
started doing these crazy hip 
hop moves that he just has. 

605
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:49,600
And he knows, I don't know how 
he knows them, but he's just 

606
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:51,040
like, he's a really good hip hop
dancer. 

607
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:52,720
Because he's a. 
Fucking psycho. 

608
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,240
Speak for us. 
We were like so excited by how 

609
00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:58,920
funny and weird it was that and 
I gave it to Tom and Tom thought

610
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:00,080
it was funny. 
And then we just ended up 

611
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:03,600
writing in the dancing scene in 
the movie and coming up with a 

612
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:05,480
whole end credits idea based off
of this. 

613
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:07,560
Hilarious. 
Hilarious. 

614
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,200
And no, I mean, everybody knows 
that Tom Cruise just a fucking 

615
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,240
it's psycho. 
Just as far as like energy wise.

616
00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:19,080
I've totally forgot that Ben 
Stiller made fun of Tom Cruise. 

617
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:20,560
Do you remember? 
Have you seen this? 

618
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:23,000
What is it? 
Ben Stiller, like plays Tom 

619
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:26,760
Cruise's stunt double, I think 
is what it is, and he. 

620
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:29,080
It's like a skit. 
Right. 

621
00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:32,360
Yeah, it's a skit. 
And if you look it up, like the 

622
00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:36,200
funniest part is Ben Stiller as 
Tom Cruise. 

623
00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:38,200
He's like, yeah, you know, like,
we're so close. 

624
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:41,080
Like, sometimes we finish each 
other's sentences and then Tom 

625
00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:44,120
Cruise is like, well, I wouldn't
go so far to say that we 

626
00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:45,960
finished. 
And then Ben Stiller's like each

627
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:50,240
other senses. 
Tom Cruise laughs and Ben 

628
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:53,920
Stiller does that. 
And Tom Cruise like. 

629
00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:55,800
He's not. 
It's like kind of improv, like 

630
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:56,960
Tom's not really in on. 
This. 

631
00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:58,480
Yeah, No, he, he got him. 
Yeah. 

632
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:02,320
Well, the skit, like obviously 
it's for funny, but like if you 

633
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:06,320
go just go look it up because it
happens at the end, you can tell

634
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,520
that like Tom Cruise actually 
breaks. 

635
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:11,080
I have seen this but I don't 
remember it. 

636
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:14,720
Oh dude, it's so good and I 
think the reason I just 

637
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,280
completely forgot about it is 
because Tom Cruise and Ben 

638
00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:20,040
Stiller don't share the screen 
in Tropic Thunder. 

639
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:22,560
No, it's for Mission Impossible 
3. 

640
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,920
This is probably. 
Mission Impossible 2. 020 I was 

641
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:27,200
about to say my. 
Favorite one? 

642
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:30,880
Maybe they were talking about 
Tropic Thunder. 

643
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:34,760
Just go, yeah, go to, go to the 
end. 

644
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:38,240
We've worked together for so 
long now it's almost like. 

645
00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:40,400
I don't know. 
It's kind of like we almost 

646
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:42,800
finish each other's sentences 
kind of all right. 

647
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:46,200
I mean, I don't think we've ever
finished each other sentences. 

648
00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:58,800
He probably played it up, but 
he's definitely. 

649
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:01,560
He definitely find it funny. 
Obviously they're acting, but 

650
00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:05,120
just that laugh is so good. 
And then seeing what you just 

651
00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:08,000
showed me where, like, Tom 
Cruise is like, no, Ben, like, 

652
00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:10,160
he's got to be fat. 
He's got to have fat hands. 

653
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:13,400
Yeah, like Ben Stiller's like, 
the fuck are you talking about? 

654
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:17,640
Yeah, spending so much money on 
prosthetic hands just because 

655
00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:18,920
Tom Cruise wanted to have fat 
hands. 

656
00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:22,160
And just seeing Tom, like, Ben 
Stiller's like, obviously chill.

657
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:24,880
He almost looks, like, scared to
just be talking about Tom 

658
00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:26,160
Cruise. 
He's like, yeah, I don't know, 

659
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:27,320
like how we're going to get it 
in. 

660
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,920
And then cut to Tom. 
He's like, OK, well, he has to 

661
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,440
have fat hands. 
It's silly, but you kind of do 

662
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:34,440
need it when you see him holding
Diet Cokes on the phone. 

663
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:38,040
Like if he didn't, if he had Tom
Cruise's hands, I might pull you

664
00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:39,640
out a little bit. 
Like you need to have some like 

665
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:42,720
fat meeting hairy hand. 
It's hilarious seeing Ben 

666
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,160
Stiller being like, I don't know
how we're going to incorporate 

667
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:47,800
the dancing. 
And then the dancing is like the

668
00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:51,920
most iconic part. 
I would say, isn't that crazy 

669
00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:56,240
that you could make the argument
that Tom Cruise's dancing is 

670
00:31:56,240 --> 00:32:00,280
more iconic than Robert Downey 
Junior's blackface? 

671
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:05,080
Yep, one would say it might be 
the safer, iconic thing to have.

672
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:10,200
Obviously going back to the 
offensive parts, I feel like a 

673
00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:12,440
pretty offensive part. 
Not that I take offense, but 

674
00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:16,760
what people could take offense 
to is Vince Diller's retarded 

675
00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:18,280
character that they call it 
Simple Jack. 

676
00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:19,600
Simple Jack. 
Yeah. 

677
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:22,600
The way he plays that is insane.
Yeah. 

678
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:25,640
It's hilarious, but it's insane.
Well, you know, they're just 

679
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:30,680
making fun of and I've heard, 
I've heard like other like I'm 

680
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,440
thinking Entourage has touched 
on it too, like when other 

681
00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:37,560
characters like go gay or yeah, 
actor. 

682
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:40,680
Or you said characters. 
Oh yeah, when actors like take 

683
00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:45,920
on roles that are like gay or 
retarded and when they. 

684
00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:49,520
Please show some respect. 
And when they do that, it's 

685
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:52,120
because they're like they're 
trying to go get the Oscar. 

686
00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:54,040
Like they're trying really hard.
Yeah. 

687
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:57,160
And it's like almost a cop out 
when you do that, like. 

688
00:32:57,560 --> 00:32:58,960
That's why you never go for a 
retard. 

689
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:00,520
Right. 
And so. 

690
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:03,440
But. 
I'm not even I'm not even saying

691
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:05,320
it's bad. 
I honestly haven't seen. 

692
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:10,000
The only movies that I've seen 
where actors have done that is 

693
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:14,120
What's Eating Gilbert Grape? 
What's eat? 

694
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:17,920
Who's eating Gilbert's Grape? 
That's twice now. 

695
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,800
I know I've messed it up before,
so I've seen that. 

696
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,440
Obviously Leo does a good job 
and it is important to the 

697
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:26,240
movie. 
And then there is Forrest Gump 

698
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:28,160
Tom Have. 
You ever seen Rain Man? 

699
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,960
No, it's a good one. 
But it's also just hilarious 

700
00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:37,080
hearing Robert Downey Junior 
being like Dom Hanks, always 

701
00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:39,120
gone. 
I thought, retard, you see him 

702
00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:40,960
playing paintball. 
Retard can't do that. 

703
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:47,320
Yeah, that's not retarded. 
And he says it and like, you got

704
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:49,120
like, for me, I just find myself
laughing. 

705
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:50,920
He was like, fuck, that's a 
really good point. 

706
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:53,880
Yeah. 
Oh, man. 

707
00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:56,080
But yeah, dude. 
So again. 

708
00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:59,840
But you get, you get away with 
it because Ben Stiller is kind 

709
00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:03,160
of betting on, I wouldn't say 
betting. 

710
00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:08,920
He's really counting on the mass
majority of people to understand

711
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:11,719
that he is making fun of actors 
that do that. 

712
00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:13,480
It's kind of making fun of the 
film industry as a whole. 

713
00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:16,080
Like it's a very meta. 
It's a very meta humor movie, 

714
00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:19,520
yes. 
Like, you know, maybe some 

715
00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:21,920
people may not get the joke. 
It's easy to understand. 

716
00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:26,360
But when Jack Black's or no, 
when Danny McBride is kind of 

717
00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:27,840
blow up the bridge, he's like 
tying the stuff. 

718
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:30,159
He's like, fuck me, I'm getting 
into catering after this. 

719
00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:32,560
He wants to get out of 
explosives because he wants to 

720
00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:35,560
whatever, like pyrotechnics or? 
Whatever Les Grossman having a 

721
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:39,280
key grip punch the director, it 
makes the most sense because 

722
00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:41,800
grips are fucking strong. 
Yeah, they're moving that shit. 

723
00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:45,760
Yeah, like they all they do is 
have and like me working on 

724
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:48,719
sets, like, yeah, dude, it's 
hilarious that a lot of grips 

725
00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,400
like just have like kind of 
these big beer bellies that 

726
00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:54,560
their arms are huge. 
Grips move all the gear and the 

727
00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:57,040
electricity stuff. 
Yeah, all the. 

728
00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:00,240
Heavy, all the heavy stuff. 
And so just that little tidbit, 

729
00:35:00,240 --> 00:35:01,280
which I'm glad you brought that 
up. 

730
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:04,240
Glad you brought that up, 
because I love that kind of part

731
00:35:04,240 --> 00:35:06,160
of the movie where he's like, 
who's the key grip? 

732
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:09,840
If you don't know anything about
the film industry, you have no 

733
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:11,880
idea. 
You just see the director get 

734
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:13,440
punched. 
I don't have any experience with

735
00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:15,120
this, but you can kind of, you 
kind of know this with 

736
00:35:15,240 --> 00:35:18,240
Mcconaughey's character being 
the agent who agents have. 

737
00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:21,200
No, they're not. 
They're banking off the talent 

738
00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:23,680
of the actors, right? 
Like they are just trying to get

739
00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:25,400
them roles and they're just, I 
mean, they do the contract, they

740
00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:26,600
do work. 
Obviously, it's not like they're

741
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,640
not earning their job, but they 
get paid a lot of money based on

742
00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:31,760
their actors. 
Like they need the clients, you 

743
00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:33,120
know what I mean? 
So like he's doing everything 

744
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:36,600
possible to make sure that tug 
speed him and doesn't fire him. 

745
00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:38,720
Like that's his money maker. 
That's like his guy. 

746
00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:42,280
Well, yeah, 'cause he's kind of 
playing into the role of like, 

747
00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:45,600
all right, I'm his quote UN 
quote best friend because he 

748
00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:49,480
doesn't really have any friends.
So like, if he, you know, I 

749
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:51,360
just, I got to do everything I 
can to make sure he doesn't fire

750
00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:54,200
me by kind of making it seem 
like I'm his best friend, right?

751
00:35:55,720 --> 00:35:58,920
Yeah. 
As far as making fun of just the

752
00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:02,880
film industry, the fact that Les
Grossman is like, yeah. 

753
00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:06,840
And if they kill him, you know, 
we get like, insurance money, so

754
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:08,920
we make all our money back. 
He's like, this is where it gets

755
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:12,800
good. 
And then he delivers like the 

756
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,520
vest. 
It's just it's so perfect when 

757
00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:18,560
he delivers the. 
We don't negotiate with 

758
00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:20,080
terrorists. 
Yes, and. 

759
00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:22,640
Everybody starts clapping 
because I. 

760
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:24,320
Keep saying it like a heroic 
moment. 

761
00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:29,480
Yes, and I'm kind of, I think it
hits even harder because it's 

762
00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:33,840
Tom Cruise because like there's 
just stories about Tom Cruise 

763
00:36:34,240 --> 00:36:37,240
and obviously he in the film 
industry means the world to him.

764
00:36:37,240 --> 00:36:40,240
He takes it very serious. 
We've seen in the Mission 

765
00:36:40,240 --> 00:36:44,200
Impossible movies, but like you 
hear stories about Tom Cruise, 

766
00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:46,960
like on the sets of some of 
these movies and he'll like 

767
00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:49,840
scream at people. 
He's like, we should be thankful

768
00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:52,960
like we should, you know, this 
is a privilege what we do. 

769
00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:54,920
We should do it to to the best 
of our ability. 

770
00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:56,400
All this. 
I think that was during COVID 

771
00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:59,400
when he like single handedly 
brought back the film industry. 

772
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:01,400
Yes. 
There's like a story with Tom 

773
00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:04,600
Cruise where he somebody, he was
going to shoot Mission 

774
00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:06,120
Impossible. 
I think it was Mission 

775
00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:09,960
Impossible. 
He was trying to get shot and he

776
00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:12,280
calls somebody before. 
I think the movie wasn't green 

777
00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:14,720
light yet. 
And so he calls, somebody called

778
00:37:14,720 --> 00:37:16,320
him, he's like, yeah, we're 
shooting Mission Impossible 3 

779
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:17,440
during COVID. 
It's fine. 

780
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:18,880
Like oh, y'all are in 
production. 

781
00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:21,920
He's like, yeah. 
And then his team for Mission 

782
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:23,560
Impossible call was like, well 
they're shooting their movie 

783
00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:24,520
right now. 
They're in production. 

784
00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:28,360
And so he got 2 movies to go by 
kind of being the orchestrator 

785
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:31,840
between the two to say they both
are working to allow him to 

786
00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:33,360
work. 
So that's why I think he was 

787
00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:34,400
yelling. 
He's like, we should be thankful

788
00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:37,200
nobody's working and we're here 
working, you know? 

789
00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:42,800
But it just, I like to, you 
know, just in my mind, I love 

790
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:46,800
the thought of Tom Cruise doing 
that and then being like, OK, 

791
00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:48,240
you can clap for me now. 
Right. 

792
00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:51,200
Yeah. 
So again, it just hits way 

793
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:54,480
harder with Tom Cruise being 
like, we don't negotiate with 

794
00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:56,240
terrorists and everybody being 
like, you're a. 

795
00:37:56,280 --> 00:38:00,160
Hero Yeah, and it's just 
hilarious seeing a serious actor

796
00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:03,080
being a retard. 
Like not a retarded this sport 

797
00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:03,920
is getting thrown out too much. 
Whoa. 

798
00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:07,840
That wasn't that just wasn't 
even necessary. 

799
00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:10,040
What the fuck? 
Was that thanks, Robert Downey 

800
00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:10,960
Junior? 
Yeah. 

801
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:12,960
Oh, you're going to blame it on 
the guy that does blackface? 

802
00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:14,160
Yeah, classic. 
Exactly. 

803
00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:20,640
Get out of jail for your card. 
Being in silly movies. 

804
00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:22,520
Yeah. 
Seen a serious actor being in 

805
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:24,680
silly movies? 
All right, here's Les Grossman 

806
00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:27,040
and Robert Pattinson. 
I've never heard of this. 

807
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:30,240
MTV is sporting mad wood over 
the fact that you're doing the 

808
00:38:30,240 --> 00:38:31,120
show. 
Thanks. 

809
00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:34,360
Thinking about cleaning myself 
up a little bit, maybe get a 

810
00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:36,720
suit, have a shave, maybe wash 
my hair. 

811
00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,400
I love it. 
In fact, I love it so much I'm 

812
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:43,960
going to fly Vidal King Sassoon 
here to personally give you a 

813
00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:46,400
Brazilian blowout. 
And when he's done, I'll give 

814
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:47,560
you the number of a good 
plumber. 

815
00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:51,560
Because you just flushed your 
career down the toilet. 

816
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:55,440
Your filthy hair made you a 
star. 

817
00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:59,280
Your filthy hair made me 
hundreds of millions of dollars 

818
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:03,840
and sent my fat kid to space 
camp four times. 

819
00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:06,760
So what kind of shampoo were you
going to use? 

820
00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:15,280
Dot. 
That's my dirty dog play, play 

821
00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:17,480
we in the. 
Red light this time. 

822
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:22,560
Wow, I've never seen that. 
MTV Movie Awards produced by Les

823
00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:27,160
Grossman. 
That, that's one of the best 

824
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:29,440
things I've ever seen. 
Player. 

825
00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:33,920
Robert Pattinson, too. 
Just the fact that he did that, 

826
00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:36,200
that's awesome. 
Yeah. 

827
00:39:36,720 --> 00:39:38,800
That's awesome. 
You're dirty as here. 

828
00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:41,960
See my fattest kid of Space Camp
four times. 

829
00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:47,200
How about Matthew McConaughey? 
I feel like we haven't really 

830
00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:49,120
talked about that enough. 
Playing the straight man. 

831
00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:53,120
Just I mean, Matthew McConaughey
is so good, bro. 

832
00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:55,960
Whether it's funny, action, 
drama doesn't matter. 

833
00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:58,080
Like Matthew McConaughey 
delivers it. 

834
00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:03,040
But like in this movie, like I, 
I wish we had gotten more scenes

835
00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:05,400
with Matthew McConaughey. 
And he also, he plays a pretty 

836
00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:06,720
important role. 
Well, they're so. 

837
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:08,840
Saves them. 
There's so many characters in 

838
00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:10,480
the movie that you wish you had 
more time with because of the 

839
00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:12,280
actor. 
Danny McBride Every time he's on

840
00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:14,320
screen Gold. 
We love Danny McBride 

841
00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:19,120
McConaughey. 
He just real hater. 

842
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:23,120
I know, I know, Phil Hater 
definitely should have been in 

843
00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:25,760
this more. 
And I bet like there's so many 

844
00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:28,160
scenes that just got cut, but 
like, you got to do what you got

845
00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:29,280
to do. 
Yeah, you got to make the movie.

846
00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:32,720
The Movie. 
But yeah, but for me, like I, I 

847
00:40:32,720 --> 00:40:34,960
seriously just think like 
Matthew McConaughey like kind of

848
00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:38,240
stands out because it's it's 
effortless what he's doing. 

849
00:40:38,280 --> 00:40:39,880
It's kind of refreshing to see 
on screen. 

850
00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:43,480
I feel like when because it's 
tough. 

851
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:46,760
Like when you're doing a comedy 
with a star-studded cast, there 

852
00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:50,160
is the pressure of like, as a 
viewer, you're watching this and

853
00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:52,520
you're like, they're going to be
funny. 

854
00:40:53,120 --> 00:40:55,840
And like, if they if they don't 
get you quick, you're going to 

855
00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:57,480
be like, oh man, it's not going 
to be good. 

856
00:40:57,480 --> 00:41:00,080
It's not going to be funny. 
Like Matthew McConaughey just 

857
00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:02,040
like kind of doing his own 
thing, just making it look like,

858
00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:05,440
all right, y'all, don't worry. 
Like, you know, I'm going to 

859
00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:09,560
Matthew McConaughey this role, 
these lines, just like pecker 

860
00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:13,960
baby, I'm here for the YOU. 
Like, you just know that Ben 

861
00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:15,400
still was like what the fuck 
that was? 

862
00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:16,800
Good. 
Yeah, 100% off script. 

863
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:19,200
Yeah, You know, just all right, 
we're going to let Matthew 

864
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:21,840
McConaughey do his thing. 
Feel like Tom Cruise probably 

865
00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:23,600
gets a little bit of free rein 
in that as well. 

866
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:26,040
Yeah, I mean, the dancing was 
literally invented. 

867
00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:27,840
Yeah, the whole character was 
invented by him. 

868
00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:30,480
Yeah, just but like him, like 
screaming at the phone, He's 

869
00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:33,280
like. 
I will fuck your face. 

870
00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:35,960
Now he says. 
How did you take a step back and

871
00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:38,400
literally fuck your own face? 
That's right, yeah. 

872
00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:39,720
He's the last ghost man. 
Who is this? 

873
00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:45,200
This is flaming black one. 
Oh OK, flaming dragon fuck face 

874
00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:48,320
first. 
Take a big step back, and 

875
00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:50,360
literally. 
Fuck your own face. 

876
00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:55,000
Insane line. 
Insane line with insane 

877
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:58,640
delivery. 
Robert Downey Junior. 

878
00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:00,200
We should probably circle back 
to him. 

879
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:04,280
He's a damn good actor. 
He's really good. 

880
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:08,760
Again, kind of what I was saying
earlier, like you don't if 

881
00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:12,000
you're going to do this role, 
like you have to pull it off. 

882
00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:14,760
There can be no slip UPS. 
It has to be good, right? 

883
00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:19,440
Like every line, every line that
Robert Downey Junior says has to

884
00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:21,680
be good, has to be funny. 
And guess what? 

885
00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:24,240
For me it was I. 
Was done. 

886
00:42:24,240 --> 00:42:27,000
Every everything that he says, 
I'm just like, that is 

887
00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:27,520
hilarious. 
My. 

888
00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:31,760
Favorite My favorite joke in 
this movie is when the finally 

889
00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:34,920
got to save his day at the end. 
The side character Kevin is his 

890
00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:38,840
real name, his his actor. 
'S name, Yeah, in the movie Jay,

891
00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:41,880
I don't know how to pronounce. 
He's how to train your dragon 

892
00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:43,040
guy. 
Is he really? 

893
00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:45,360
Yeah. 
Jay Baruchel. 

894
00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:47,880
Baruchel. 
Yeah, it's got to be. 

895
00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:50,640
It's got to be it. 
Kevin Sandusky, hell of a yeah. 

896
00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:54,480
Kevin Sandusky when he's yapping
to Robert Downey Juniors. 

897
00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:57,240
They're walking through and then
he's he's like going on a long 

898
00:42:57,240 --> 00:43:00,360
tangent about Blu-ray inequality
and he's like, you talking to me

899
00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:04,040
this whole time. 
Now whichever format porno backs

900
00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:06,360
is usually. 
The one that becomes the the 

901
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:09,280
most successful. 
But you know, Sony, every 

902
00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:11,000
PlayStation 3 has a Blu-ray. 
You. 

903
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:12,280
Talking to me this whole time I 
I was. 

904
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:15,040
Talking to whoever was 
listening. 

905
00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:17,280
Christ, I mean. 
That is the. 

906
00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:19,800
Funniest joke? 
So good because like again, like

907
00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:22,920
that scene did not need to be in
there, but it's just so funny. 

908
00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:25,120
You have to keep it in there. 
Something that they do in this 

909
00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:27,760
movie that's great is when it 
comes to the editing of this 

910
00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:29,160
movie, because it's a lot of 
improv. 

911
00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:30,440
It's comedy. 
You got to get funny. 

912
00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:33,480
It's Robert Denning Junior 
playing this insane guy and you 

913
00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:35,000
know, he's like meta. 
He's not meta. 

914
00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:39,880
He's method acting his his role 
even going into black like he 

915
00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:42,840
got a pigmentation. 
Surgery. 

916
00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:48,400
And so it'll like hold on him 
sometimes for like way longer 

917
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:50,760
than you should in a normal like
dramatic scene or whatever, but 

918
00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:53,440
just hold on him because what 
his face is doing is just insane

919
00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:55,160
and hilarious. 
So they just kind of hold on 

920
00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:57,840
moments just to see like the 
insane expressions he's doing. 

921
00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:03,440
And the best one is whenever 
Kevin Sandusky in the movie is 

922
00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:05,760
like, oh, you know, it's in the 
book. 

923
00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:07,440
That's in the script. 
What you all didn't read the 

924
00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:10,080
script and he Robert down 
junior. 

925
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:14,200
What are you talking about? 
And then he just like just does 

926
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:17,880
this weird face like I think 
he's trying not to break, but it

927
00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:20,160
looks so good in the movie 
because he just looks like a bad

928
00:44:20,160 --> 00:44:23,320
man method actor. 
Yeah, I it's perfect. 

929
00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:29,000
I love like my favorite 1 is 
like I don't break character 

930
00:44:29,120 --> 00:44:34,000
until I do the DVD commentary. 
The director's The commentary 

931
00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:35,560
The DVD commentary for this 
movie. 

932
00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:37,560
Robert Down Junior's playing his
character. 

933
00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:40,720
His voice is in the commentary. 
He literally means it. 

934
00:44:40,720 --> 00:44:42,880
Yeah. 
I think you, you have to to do 

935
00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:45,240
that because that's such an 
iconic line to where it's like, 

936
00:44:45,240 --> 00:44:48,840
all right, it would be funny if 
we carry it over and we get 

937
00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:51,840
Robert Downey Junior to to 
actually mean that. 

938
00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:58,400
Oh no. 
Tough getting out to that out to

939
00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:02,400
that precipice. 
Was that no dead real baby you 

940
00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:04,440
playing with? 
That was actually a real baby. 

941
00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:07,400
Man. 
Baby was very calm. 

942
00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:11,120
Did the baby get hurt? 
No, the baby was totally no, no,

943
00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:16,080
babies were harm. 
In a time wait everyone shut up 

944
00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:17,040
now all. 
Right here. 

945
00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:18,480
Is that what's going on? 
Here. 

946
00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:21,120
Look at that. 
Damn. 

947
00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:24,920
Oh wow, look at that. 
It's it's. 

948
00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:28,400
It's Spider Man and Iron Man. 
Fuck that lip gloss going down. 

949
00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:31,120
Sort of an alternate universe 
for Spider Man and Iron. 

950
00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:34,040
Man, man, I was trying to ride 
Toby when we were shooting this 

951
00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:34,960
thing. 
Oh no. 

952
00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:38,280
He wouldn't have none of it 
talking about it happen, Mary. 

953
00:45:39,520 --> 00:45:43,680
No, here it comes. 
Wait, oh, been like. 

954
00:45:43,680 --> 00:45:46,000
That tape, I did like that dude.
There's a lot of. 

955
00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:49,800
Disemotion fucking begun. 
What are you screaming about? 

956
00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:53,400
Tortured. 
Commentary. 

957
00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:55,840
He talks like he talks in his 
character's voice. 

958
00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:59,120
I have never I I did not know 
that this was a thing. 

959
00:45:59,120 --> 00:46:00,800
I'm immediate. 
As soon as we're done with this,

960
00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:01,960
I'm going to watch this whole 
thing. 

961
00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:04,520
I am in love with what I'm 
hearing right now. 

962
00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:08,600
This one could say this. 
That could be like the funniest 

963
00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:10,800
part of the movie. 
I did not know that this was a 

964
00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:12,440
thing. 
Fucking God. 

965
00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:17,080
Oh, look at the lip glossing. 
There, man, everybody shoot up. 

966
00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:18,720
What is this? 
Oh, look at this. 

967
00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:21,800
Oh yeah, I was trying to ride 
Tommy McGuire on this one. 

968
00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:23,320
He wouldn't have none of. 
It dude. 

969
00:46:24,040 --> 00:46:28,000
Iconic, iconic. 
So good, so good. 

970
00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:32,800
It was funny though, he Rd. 
JS character was supposed to be 

971
00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:34,840
Irish when they wrote the 
character stop. 

972
00:46:35,440 --> 00:46:39,360
But Robert Downey Junior said 
let's make him Australian 

973
00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:42,040
because I think I can improv 
better as an Australian because 

974
00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:44,160
I've already developed that 
accent from Natural Born 

975
00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:46,680
Killers. 
Oh yeah. 

976
00:46:46,680 --> 00:46:48,800
So he had the Australian accent 
down. 

977
00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:51,640
He'd have to like, learn how to 
be Irish and think about it, you

978
00:46:51,640 --> 00:46:55,040
know, working like a dialect 
coach when you're having a 

979
00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:58,080
different accent in your natural
accent, you know, you have to 

980
00:46:58,080 --> 00:46:59,520
learn how to say the lines in 
that way. 

981
00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:03,400
And you're kind of being more 
specific to what you have to say

982
00:47:03,400 --> 00:47:04,600
in the accent. 
You know, I mean, there's not 

983
00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:07,040
much improv because you might 
get the words wrong, whatever it

984
00:47:07,040 --> 00:47:08,440
is. 
But he's already developed his 

985
00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:10,640
Australian accent, so he's like,
I'll be able to improv way 

986
00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:12,120
better than Australian. 
So make me Australian. 

987
00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:13,760
Nice. 
Yeah. 

988
00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:15,560
Because, I mean, that's not like
a make or break. 

989
00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:17,880
That's just something you can 
throw in there, right. 

990
00:47:18,320 --> 00:47:20,400
You know what? 
I also forget that Robert Downey

991
00:47:20,400 --> 00:47:24,000
Junior, like, comes from comedy 
because he was on he was on SNL 

992
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:29,200
now, he was part of arguably the
worst SNL cast ever formed. 

993
00:47:29,720 --> 00:47:30,440
Yeah. 
Like a. 

994
00:47:30,640 --> 00:47:32,560
Little while ago, like before 
Will Ferrell and all them. 

995
00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:34,280
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
I think it was. 

996
00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:36,480
Yeah, I think it was before Will
Ferrell's time. 

997
00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:41,440
It was either right before or 
right after, but he was like he 

998
00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:44,760
might have been the youngest at 
that time ever. 

999
00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:46,800
Like I think he might have been 
there like youngest. 

1000
00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:50,200
I could be wrong on that, but I 
do know that he was a cast 

1001
00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:52,720
member for SNL. 
Like the worst. 

1002
00:47:52,720 --> 00:47:54,600
Well, I mean, you think about he
is funny like you think about 

1003
00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:57,320
Iron Man like he no, right. 
He was funny in Iron Man. 

1004
00:47:57,360 --> 00:47:59,760
He's a serious, serious esque 
movie, right? 

1005
00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:01,640
It's not like a comedy movie. 
What I mean, Yeah. 

1006
00:48:01,680 --> 00:48:03,280
And he's funny in it. 
You know, he has always the 

1007
00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:05,080
comedic relief in most of the 
scenes. 

1008
00:48:05,240 --> 00:48:07,160
He's the, he's like the true 
here. 

1009
00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:11,840
Everybody loves. 
It's weird that I don't, I, we 

1010
00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:14,760
will not understand the 
magnitude of like, I guess what 

1011
00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:19,200
Robert Downey junior was because
like he went through like kind 

1012
00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:20,640
of a downfall. 
Yeah, we didn't live through 

1013
00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:22,200
that. 
Yeah, we have no idea what that 

1014
00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:26,080
really entailed, but I think he 
was like kind of the guy. 

1015
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:31,600
And so again, like, it's insane 
that, you know, he he just had a

1016
00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:36,000
huge drug problem and then his 
career plummets. 

1017
00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:39,800
Think Iron Man saves him and 
then he's like how do blackface?

1018
00:48:40,280 --> 00:48:45,560
Yeah, yeah. 
I might quite possibly fuck it 

1019
00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:49,280
all up again. 
Yeah, I've already fucked it up 

1020
00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:52,280
once. 
Bro he does the voice like so 

1021
00:48:52,280 --> 00:48:55,120
good, like you almost need 
subtitles for it. 

1022
00:48:55,640 --> 00:48:57,440
It's good. 
It's really good. 

1023
00:48:57,440 --> 00:49:02,040
Speaking of, you know, RDJ 
having comedy experience, Tom 

1024
00:49:02,040 --> 00:49:05,320
Cruise, even though he's been 
mostly in serious movies, he 

1025
00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:08,080
still has some comedy experience
because like when he was a kid, 

1026
00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:11,280
he said he used to write skits 
and act them out to make his mom

1027
00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:14,880
and his sister laugh. 
Like his first ever experience 

1028
00:49:14,880 --> 00:49:18,440
acting was him doing funny 
stuff, like to make his family 

1029
00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:20,600
laugh. 
That's that made me think of 

1030
00:49:20,600 --> 00:49:21,080
that. 
I remember. 

1031
00:49:21,080 --> 00:49:23,600
That it's it. 
Yeah. 

1032
00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:26,320
Shout out to him because it's 
just so weird. 

1033
00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:29,040
Like, I know what he sounds 
like, and he literally sounds 

1034
00:49:29,040 --> 00:49:30,720
like a completely different 
person than this. 

1035
00:49:30,720 --> 00:49:33,600
Yeah. 
It's like there's no hint of 

1036
00:49:33,600 --> 00:49:35,400
Robert Downey Junior in there. 
Yeah. 

1037
00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:42,800
And then, but have you, have you
seen the the behind the scenes? 

1038
00:49:42,800 --> 00:49:45,320
Not the behind the scenes, but 
there's like a long cut where 

1039
00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:48,080
it's Ben Stiller and Robert 
Downey Junior. 

1040
00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:49,440
You know what I'm talking about.
Yeah. 

1041
00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:50,760
They were like breaking. 
They were. 

1042
00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:52,760
Breaking blooper reel. 
It's just like the uncut, Yeah, 

1043
00:49:52,880 --> 00:49:55,880
the uncut deal between. 
Them you've seen it though, it's

1044
00:49:55,880 --> 00:49:57,240
so good. 
But it's funny because like, 

1045
00:49:57,240 --> 00:49:59,640
there's funny lines they didn't 
use and you can kind of see the 

1046
00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:01,440
takes they did use from that 
footage. 

1047
00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:03,360
It's a long thing, so we can 
watch a little bit of it because

1048
00:50:03,360 --> 00:50:06,680
it's good. 
Yeah, like a 20 minute piece of 

1049
00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:08,400
footage. 
But I think, yeah, But like 

1050
00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:10,520
Robert Downey, Junior stays in 
character. 

1051
00:50:10,520 --> 00:50:11,680
He's like, I got the line. 
Yeah, yeah. 

1052
00:50:11,680 --> 00:50:13,880
Come on, give it to me. 
Yeah, yeah, the whole time was 

1053
00:50:13,880 --> 00:50:16,440
all in character. 
Hey, man, if you're going to do 

1054
00:50:16,440 --> 00:50:19,440
it, you're going to do it. 
Damn. 

1055
00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:23,440
It was 11 minutes action. 
Please, you're going to focus up

1056
00:50:23,440 --> 00:50:25,440
now. 
Motherfucking say it, say it, 

1057
00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:29,200
say it, say it, it. 
It's me, Tug. 

1058
00:50:29,400 --> 00:50:31,000
It's me, Tug. 
Yeah. 

1059
00:50:31,240 --> 00:50:32,520
Tug who? 
Tug who? 

1060
00:50:32,520 --> 00:50:34,040
I don't know. 
You don't know. 

1061
00:50:35,080 --> 00:50:37,120
You don't know. 
I know. 

1062
00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:39,760
No, you don't. 
Man, I know who I am. 

1063
00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:42,240
I'm a dude playing the dude. 
This guy you don't know to do it

1064
00:50:42,240 --> 00:50:45,840
again. 
Which one the top? 

1065
00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:49,160
It's cool you get to watch Ben 
Cesar Rex while he's acting on. 

1066
00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:53,160
The top. 
OK damn, I'm dripping on them 

1067
00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:57,000
M&M's. 
Here we go. 5432. 

1068
00:50:58,600 --> 00:51:02,720
Hot damn, I'm tired of this. 
Now you focus the fuck up, dude.

1069
00:51:03,280 --> 00:51:04,880
Say it. 
It. 

1070
00:51:05,320 --> 00:51:07,520
You going to say it? 
It's me, Tug. 

1071
00:51:07,800 --> 00:51:09,400
It's me, Tug. 
That's right. 

1072
00:51:09,560 --> 00:51:10,880
Now Tug Who? 
Tug who? 

1073
00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:12,080
I don't know. 
Who are you? 

1074
00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:14,800
Me. 
I know who I am. 

1075
00:51:15,400 --> 00:51:18,520
I'm a dude playing a dude 
disguised as another dude. 

1076
00:51:18,880 --> 00:51:20,840
You a dude who don't know what 
dude he is? 

1077
00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:22,840
You're a dude who don't know who
a dude he is. 

1078
00:51:22,880 --> 00:51:24,920
Yes, I do. 
You don't know what, dude? 

1079
00:51:24,920 --> 00:51:26,640
You are sure, dude. 
No, you don't. 

1080
00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:28,960
I sure as fuck dude. 
Sure you don't. 

1081
00:51:29,160 --> 00:51:30,600
I sure don't. 
Don't you? 

1082
00:51:30,760 --> 00:51:37,160
I am stop looking at me when I'm
looking out here. 

1083
00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:39,800
It's cool too because like you 
can see when they there's like 

1084
00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:42,280
these pauses between each line, 
like it's not a quick back and 

1085
00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:44,760
forth because they're allowing 
time to make sure they're done 

1086
00:51:45,080 --> 00:51:46,640
with their improv. 
Like there's a time when Miss 

1087
00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:50,160
Hiller kind of takes like beats 
between what he says to him in 

1088
00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:53,600
this video and like RDJ like 
doesn't talk. 

1089
00:51:53,600 --> 00:51:57,440
He waits few moments to pass to 
make sure he's done and then he 

1090
00:51:57,440 --> 00:51:59,000
will respond, which is pretty 
cool. 

1091
00:52:01,320 --> 00:52:03,240
Stop looking at me with the 
movement out of the ass dude, I 

1092
00:52:03,240 --> 00:52:04,720
thought. 
That was him. 

1093
00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:06,160
That was a pretty good 
impression. 

1094
00:52:06,600 --> 00:52:08,120
Yes. 
Take him in the top. 

1095
00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:12,920
Yes. 
Now let's get this clear. 

1096
00:52:13,520 --> 00:52:14,960
I'm going to ask you one more 
time. 

1097
00:52:14,960 --> 00:52:15,440
You say. 
Say it. 

1098
00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:22,520
It's me, Tug. 
It's me Tug that's. 

1099
00:52:22,560 --> 00:52:24,240
Right. 
Tug who? 

1100
00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:26,480
Tug who? 
That was my question. 

1101
00:52:28,240 --> 00:52:30,240
I say it and I say it. 
OK, OK. 

1102
00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:37,400
I'm tired of keep governing you.
You bout to say it now. 

1103
00:52:37,600 --> 00:52:39,760
Fear it. 
Not it. 

1104
00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:43,840
Say what I'm telling you to say.
It's me, Tug. 

1105
00:52:43,840 --> 00:52:46,160
It's me, Tug. 
That's right. 

1106
00:52:46,200 --> 00:52:48,040
Tug Who? 
Tug who? 

1107
00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:52,160
What the fuck you do know? 
It's me, Tug. 

1108
00:52:52,160 --> 00:52:53,200
I don't know Tug. 
Who? 

1109
00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:56,240
Come on now. 
Come on now, I don't. 

1110
00:52:56,440 --> 00:52:58,840
Know who I am. 
You don't know who you are, 

1111
00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:00,440
trust me. 
No, you don't. 

1112
00:53:00,440 --> 00:53:01,920
Oh, yeah? 
Oh no. 

1113
00:53:01,920 --> 00:53:04,560
I'm a dude planning to do 
disguise as a third dude. 

1114
00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:08,040
And now back to the dude I was. 
You a dude who don't know what 

1115
00:53:08,040 --> 00:53:09,640
dude he. 
Is you're a dude who don't know 

1116
00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:12,000
what dude he is. 
Trust me I'm cool who I am. 

1117
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:14,240
We tripping on you You. 
Don't know who you are? 

1118
00:53:14,240 --> 00:53:16,240
Yes, I do. 
No, you don't. 

1119
00:53:16,280 --> 00:53:17,040
Sure I do. 
But. 

1120
00:53:19,360 --> 00:53:23,720
I know it's insane. 
Us the constellations in your 

1121
00:53:23,720 --> 00:53:26,760
head, you. 
Just made my point. 

1122
00:53:27,240 --> 00:53:30,200
You got me spinning. 
Very cool watching behind the 

1123
00:53:30,200 --> 00:53:31,920
scenes like this. 
That is cool. 

1124
00:53:32,160 --> 00:53:36,560
It's also like you can see, like
they use some of those takes. 

1125
00:53:36,560 --> 00:53:38,160
Yeah, yeah. 
You can notice, I think it's the

1126
00:53:38,160 --> 00:53:41,160
first. 
I think the take they use of Ben

1127
00:53:41,160 --> 00:53:43,840
Siller was the first time he 
responded to Toku. 

1128
00:53:43,840 --> 00:53:47,360
I don't know whatever that line 
was like his eyes move. 

1129
00:53:47,360 --> 00:53:48,640
I think that's what they use in 
the movie. 

1130
00:53:49,760 --> 00:53:51,880
He's got it down. 
So does Jack Black. 

1131
00:53:52,160 --> 00:53:56,160
Whenever he's like just doing 
the yeah, he's just really good 

1132
00:53:56,160 --> 00:53:58,600
at the faces. 
We pointed this out right before

1133
00:53:58,600 --> 00:54:00,480
we started rolling. 
But I do want to say it like 

1134
00:54:00,800 --> 00:54:06,000
looking at the poster, they were
so close to finishing their 

1135
00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:11,880
final punchline. 
They have Black Stiller, Downey 

1136
00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:16,000
Junior and then Tropic Thunder. 
What they should have done they 

1137
00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:18,080
or what they could have done, 
they could have done Stiller 

1138
00:54:18,080 --> 00:54:21,480
first and then black Downey 
Junior. 

1139
00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:24,080
Yeah, that would have been good 
it. 

1140
00:54:24,280 --> 00:54:26,960
Would have been really good. 
But you know, they thought about

1141
00:54:26,960 --> 00:54:28,200
it. 
They might have thought that 

1142
00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:30,920
might be too far. 
That Yeah. 

1143
00:54:30,920 --> 00:54:33,960
Well, because I can understand 
why they wouldn't. 

1144
00:54:34,080 --> 00:54:36,440
Because if you haven't seen the 
movie and then you hear that 

1145
00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:39,160
like, dude, Robert Downey 
Junior's playing blackface, and 

1146
00:54:39,160 --> 00:54:41,720
then you see on the poster that 
they did black Downey Junior, 

1147
00:54:41,720 --> 00:54:45,440
and you don't understand what 
the joke is, you're already a 

1148
00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:47,520
little offended. 
Now, they might have thought 

1149
00:54:47,520 --> 00:54:49,280
about it, but I think the reason
why they didn't do that is 

1150
00:54:49,280 --> 00:54:51,920
because of the poster. 
Ben Stiller is the lead and he's

1151
00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:53,640
in the middle. 
And so you put the names above 

1152
00:54:53,640 --> 00:54:55,480
the people, right? 
And then switching it up would 

1153
00:54:55,480 --> 00:54:57,640
have put Jack Black in the 
middle as a lead, and he's not 

1154
00:54:57,640 --> 00:54:59,960
the lead. 
So it wouldn't have worked, but 

1155
00:54:59,960 --> 00:55:02,080
it would have been really funny.
It would have been really funny.

1156
00:55:02,880 --> 00:55:05,320
Black Downey Junior. 
So they should honestly just 

1157
00:55:05,320 --> 00:55:08,480
like fix it now. 
Somebody should just go back and

1158
00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:10,200
do it right now. 
What's funny with this movie 

1159
00:55:10,200 --> 00:55:11,360
too? 
Because when I first watched it,

1160
00:55:11,360 --> 00:55:13,440
obviously, you know, in 
preparation for the podcast, 

1161
00:55:13,440 --> 00:55:15,160
it's my first time ever sitting 
down and watching the full 

1162
00:55:15,160 --> 00:55:18,360
thing. 
And so when I saw Nick Nolte's 

1163
00:55:18,360 --> 00:55:25,480
character 4 Leaf, 4 Leaf, when 
he's using his hooks, I was 

1164
00:55:25,480 --> 00:55:27,800
curious, like, how do those 
hooks work with somebody with no

1165
00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:30,200
hands to like clamp open and 
close the clamps? 

1166
00:55:30,200 --> 00:55:31,800
Because he's like picking things
up and shit. 

1167
00:55:32,600 --> 00:55:34,560
Like, how would that work? 
And then he has hands. 

1168
00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:35,880
You're like, oh, well, that's 
how that works. 

1169
00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:39,800
That was just funny. 
Like finding out he actually has

1170
00:55:39,800 --> 00:55:41,000
hands. 
And I'm like, oh, that's why the

1171
00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:43,840
claws work. 
Yeah, in the heat of battle, 

1172
00:55:45,120 --> 00:55:47,320
Jack blacks like you have hands.
What the fuck? 

1173
00:55:47,840 --> 00:55:52,120
In the Robert Downey Juice, you 
have hands, God damn it. 

1174
00:55:52,320 --> 00:55:55,280
Yeah, actually, Jack Black says.
You grew hands. 

1175
00:55:55,960 --> 00:56:02,200
Yeah, yeah, that's good, man. 
Are you ready to rate Tropic 

1176
00:56:02,200 --> 00:56:03,200
Thunder? 
Let's do it. 

1177
00:56:03,640 --> 00:56:06,520
All right, Grey, what do you 
have for Tropic Thunder? 

1178
00:56:07,080 --> 00:56:09,000
For Tropic. 
Thunder, let's go down the list 

1179
00:56:09,000 --> 00:56:12,440
here. 
Cade acting 10 out of 10. 

1180
00:56:13,960 --> 00:56:16,480
There you go. 
I mean, just pretty, pretty 

1181
00:56:16,480 --> 00:56:20,040
phenomenal performances. 
Also very ballsy performances. 

1182
00:56:20,040 --> 00:56:23,920
So again, I've been I've been 
talking about it like you're 

1183
00:56:23,920 --> 00:56:25,440
going to do a performance like 
this. 

1184
00:56:26,320 --> 00:56:28,280
There's you can make no 
mistakes. 

1185
00:56:29,040 --> 00:56:32,560
I don't think any mistakes were 
made writing 10 out of 10. 

1186
00:56:33,040 --> 00:56:39,920
I think this is this is like a 
really funny movie and obviously

1187
00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:41,440
like, you know, we just watched 
it. 

1188
00:56:41,520 --> 00:56:44,520
I'm laughing like a pretty 
decent amount, but there's like 

1189
00:56:44,520 --> 00:56:47,680
a lot of like clever humor. 
This isn't just like stupid 

1190
00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:52,680
humor or and I hate to say 
stupid humor and then say this, 

1191
00:56:52,680 --> 00:56:55,840
but like like step brothers, you
know, we did that episode. 

1192
00:56:55,840 --> 00:56:58,600
That's not stupid humor at all, 
but it is more like kind of 

1193
00:56:58,600 --> 00:57:01,200
absurd comedy you're laughing 
more about. 

1194
00:57:01,560 --> 00:57:04,800
How ridiculous it is. 
Yeah, Will Ferrell and John C 

1195
00:57:04,800 --> 00:57:09,720
Reilly sleepwalking and like, 
you know, you're, you're 

1196
00:57:10,120 --> 00:57:13,040
laughing at that. 
This is more like there are a 

1197
00:57:13,040 --> 00:57:15,960
lot of funny moments, but 
there's also just like a lot of 

1198
00:57:16,000 --> 00:57:19,560
kind of clever, like in their 
jokes where it's like, whoa, 

1199
00:57:19,560 --> 00:57:24,160
that's really that's good. 
Like, I'm thinking just the idea

1200
00:57:24,160 --> 00:57:29,400
of Robert Downey Junior's 
character having beef with Tom 

1201
00:57:29,400 --> 00:57:32,040
Cruise and he says, what do you 
mean, you people? 

1202
00:57:32,480 --> 00:57:36,600
And then the the actual black. 
Ben Stiller, you said Tom 

1203
00:57:36,640 --> 00:57:38,840
Cruise. 
Oh, sorry, Ben Stiller. 

1204
00:57:39,880 --> 00:57:43,240
And then the actual the other 
actor, What's his name? 

1205
00:57:45,040 --> 00:57:50,560
Jack Black. 
Not no, no, Brandon TJ's Al 

1206
00:57:50,560 --> 00:57:56,760
Pacino and him being like, what 
do you mean you people or what 

1207
00:57:56,760 --> 00:58:00,400
do you mean you people? 
And then them just getting into 

1208
00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:03,280
a whole argument, having beef 
the whole movie and like Robert 

1209
00:58:03,280 --> 00:58:05,640
Downey Junior, he's like, hey, 
we cool though, right? 

1210
00:58:06,760 --> 00:58:08,920
No, we're. 
Not that's what makes a black 

1211
00:58:08,920 --> 00:58:11,240
face OK, because it's clearly 
wrong. 

1212
00:58:11,480 --> 00:58:13,080
They're showing that it's wrong.
Exactly. 

1213
00:58:13,080 --> 00:58:15,880
Actors willing to do this, and a
studio was willing to do this. 

1214
00:58:15,880 --> 00:58:20,240
See, so that's just really good 
writing because it's so funny 

1215
00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:23,000
when you realize, like, dude, 
like, this is insane. 

1216
00:58:23,040 --> 00:58:28,880
Like Robert Downey Junior is 
having to do this and he 

1217
00:58:28,880 --> 00:58:32,480
accepted the role of blackface 
and then he is like on screen 

1218
00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:35,760
having an argument with a 
character that's black that is 

1219
00:58:35,760 --> 00:58:39,040
offended by blackface. 
So just the levels of comedy 

1220
00:58:39,040 --> 00:58:41,680
there like. 
It's so good and even grabs him 

1221
00:58:41,680 --> 00:58:44,880
when he calls him the N word and
he's like, that word's held our 

1222
00:58:44,880 --> 00:58:48,120
people back for 400 years. 
Yeah, he's like, what the fuck? 

1223
00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:51,360
Yeah, well, and then he ends up 
finding out like you're just. 

1224
00:58:51,360 --> 00:58:55,200
I think he's quoting a song. 
Yeah, theme song to the the. 

1225
00:58:56,000 --> 00:58:56,960
The Jacksons? 
No. 

1226
00:58:57,280 --> 00:58:59,760
Was it The Jeffersons? 
The Jeffersons, Yes. 

1227
00:58:59,760 --> 00:59:01,400
That's right. 
Just because the theme song 

1228
00:59:01,400 --> 00:59:02,840
don't make it not true. 
Yep. 

1229
00:59:04,360 --> 00:59:07,160
Like that's funny. 
Yeah, that's really funny. 

1230
00:59:07,680 --> 00:59:10,720
So I just think, yeah, like, 
that's really good writing. 

1231
00:59:10,720 --> 00:59:12,760
It's also funny how committed he
is to it, how he doesn't think 

1232
00:59:12,760 --> 00:59:16,000
he's being offensive, how when 
he's talking about we'll put 

1233
00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:19,160
some greens and we get some grow
fishing like going way over the 

1234
00:59:19,160 --> 00:59:21,280
top with his accent. 
Got them greens. 

1235
00:59:21,520 --> 00:59:25,680
And he Al, Al Pacino, he's like,
if you think we talk about and 

1236
00:59:25,680 --> 00:59:27,920
then he walks away and he's 
like, I get excited about my 

1237
00:59:27,920 --> 00:59:34,080
food. 
I mean, just so good, so good, 

1238
00:59:34,080 --> 00:59:36,480
like so good. 
And honestly, back to the 

1239
00:59:36,480 --> 00:59:38,840
acting. 
Like, if you just go look at 

1240
00:59:38,840 --> 00:59:41,920
every scene, you can see like 
all of these character Ben 

1241
00:59:41,920 --> 00:59:46,280
Stiller clearly was like, you 
know, Jack Black always has to 

1242
00:59:46,280 --> 00:59:49,320
look like he's dying from not 
doing drugs. 

1243
00:59:49,760 --> 00:59:53,640
And then every time Robert 
Downey Junior talks in this 

1244
00:59:53,640 --> 00:59:57,960
movie, you can see Brandon T 
Jackson like anytime he's in the

1245
00:59:57,960 --> 01:00:00,720
background just looking at him. 
Shut the fuck. 

1246
01:00:00,720 --> 01:00:03,040
Up. 
Like it's so good that Ben still

1247
01:00:03,040 --> 01:00:05,840
like again, like levels to this.
Like that's so good. 

1248
01:00:05,840 --> 01:00:08,720
Which brings me to editing 10 
out of 10. 

1249
01:00:10,800 --> 01:00:15,440
I just think, I think every. 
I've seen it perfect. 

1250
01:00:16,320 --> 01:00:18,960
The length of it is really good.
It's not an hour and a half, but

1251
01:00:18,960 --> 01:00:21,440
it's not 2 hours. 
It's kind of the perfect comedy.

1252
01:00:21,440 --> 01:00:22,360
Comedy. 
Yeah. 

1253
01:00:22,360 --> 01:00:27,120
Time while also executing a 
really good story. 

1254
01:00:27,560 --> 01:00:29,280
A story within a story within a 
story. 

1255
01:00:29,480 --> 01:00:31,840
A dude within a dude playing a 
dude that knows he's a dude. 

1256
01:00:32,080 --> 01:00:36,360
Based on the ending, how it cuts
to the frame we see in the movie

1257
01:00:36,360 --> 01:00:38,920
that's at the Oscars, is what 
the movie that we watched, 

1258
01:00:38,920 --> 01:00:43,760
Tropic Thunder, what the movie 
was in the movie, like 

1259
01:00:43,760 --> 01:00:48,040
everything we watched, is that 
what they made and submitted for

1260
01:00:48,040 --> 01:00:52,600
the Oscars? 
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's right. 

1261
01:00:53,040 --> 01:00:55,640
I think they just go back. 
It's not a movie about Tropic 

1262
01:00:55,640 --> 01:00:58,000
Thunder. 
It's a movie now about them 

1263
01:00:58,000 --> 01:01:00,840
making this movie. 
But I, I'm, what I'm saying is, 

1264
01:01:01,000 --> 01:01:02,400
you know, when you think about. 
You're about. 

1265
01:01:02,400 --> 01:01:03,520
You're about to lose me, by the 
way. 

1266
01:01:04,320 --> 01:01:05,920
You're so close. 
I'm about to be gone. 

1267
01:01:05,920 --> 01:01:10,440
What I'm saying is, is that the 
Oscar, that the movie that won 

1268
01:01:10,440 --> 01:01:13,400
the Oscar? 
You could think that it was a 

1269
01:01:13,400 --> 01:01:16,080
documentary that they made after
this and we just saw that real 

1270
01:01:16,080 --> 01:01:19,080
events and they made a new 
movie, right I I fall you 

1271
01:01:19,080 --> 01:01:21,080
tracking. 
I think barely, but I think 

1272
01:01:21,080 --> 01:01:23,400
that's what's happening. 
So the question is. 

1273
01:01:23,400 --> 01:01:25,760
Or am I just agreeing? 
But then at the yeah, maybe. 

1274
01:01:26,800 --> 01:01:30,520
But then at the end, whenever 
the, you know, movie's over 

1275
01:01:30,520 --> 01:01:33,320
basically, and they are leaving 
Vietnam and they're getting a 

1276
01:01:33,320 --> 01:01:36,760
lot on the chopper, it's freeze 
frames and pulls out the Oscars.

1277
01:01:37,480 --> 01:01:40,120
It was like, was that whole 
thing we watched the movie that 

1278
01:01:40,120 --> 01:01:41,800
they made about making the 
movie. 

1279
01:01:41,800 --> 01:01:42,960
Oh. 
I don't know if I caught that 

1280
01:01:42,960 --> 01:01:46,800
then. 
Because I mean, when Ben Sellers

1281
01:01:46,800 --> 01:01:49,200
looking down at the at the 
helicopter, when they're in the 

1282
01:01:49,200 --> 01:01:52,640
helicopter looking kind of 
stoic, that stops and it pulls 

1283
01:01:52,640 --> 01:01:53,760
back. 
Now they're at the Oscars. 

1284
01:01:53,760 --> 01:01:55,680
So it's like, was that whole 
movie The Tropicana that they're

1285
01:01:55,680 --> 01:01:57,360
talking about that they made? 
Like they be watching the movie 

1286
01:01:57,360 --> 01:01:59,000
that they actually made in this 
movie. 

1287
01:01:59,600 --> 01:02:02,680
Wow, a comedy movie with a 
conspiracy theory. 

1288
01:02:03,200 --> 01:02:05,320
I don't know anything. 
I mean the doesn't really work 

1289
01:02:05,320 --> 01:02:07,440
100% because like some of the 
logic you're like wait, what? 

1290
01:02:07,440 --> 01:02:10,400
But also it's a comedy movie and
it's also a movie, so you can 

1291
01:02:10,400 --> 01:02:14,040
get away with whatever. 
No, this is like Inception level

1292
01:02:14,040 --> 01:02:15,560
writing. 
Now I'm actually going to bump 

1293
01:02:15,560 --> 01:02:18,520
up my 10 out of 10 on the 
writing 2 and 11 out of 10 

1294
01:02:18,520 --> 01:02:21,480
because this movie should not 
have been this brilliant. 

1295
01:02:21,480 --> 01:02:24,600
Movies within movies within 
movies, all right anyway. 

1296
01:02:24,600 --> 01:02:27,480
Directed by Ben Stiller Are we 
sure it wasn't Christopher Nolan

1297
01:02:27,480 --> 01:02:30,120
that directed this movie? 
Hey, we see Ben Stiller's 

1298
01:02:30,600 --> 01:02:33,360
ability Severance. 
That's some deep shit. 

1299
01:02:33,480 --> 01:02:34,680
Levels. 
That's some levels. 

1300
01:02:34,880 --> 01:02:36,200
Levels. 
All right, get back to this 

1301
01:02:36,200 --> 01:02:39,120
rating. 
Cinematography 7 out of 10. 

1302
01:02:39,320 --> 01:02:43,080
Yep. 
Solid enjoyability. 10 out of 10

1303
01:02:43,080 --> 01:02:43,800
dude. 
Booyah I. 

1304
01:02:43,800 --> 01:02:46,600
Didn't even tell you that when 
you recommended this movie like 

1305
01:02:47,000 --> 01:02:48,880
I just watched this. 
Oh nice. 

1306
01:02:48,880 --> 01:02:54,560
Like I think two months ago, I 
can't I, I just, I love throwing

1307
01:02:54,560 --> 01:02:56,200
this thing on. 
Yeah, I'm going to start. 

1308
01:02:57,440 --> 01:03:00,560
I'm I've been the 1st and the 
2nd but definitely. 

1309
01:03:00,560 --> 01:03:02,960
The last well, that's why I like
I'm kind of, you know, good for 

1310
01:03:02,960 --> 01:03:07,360
you, because now you can next 
time you go watch it, you're 

1311
01:03:07,360 --> 01:03:10,120
going to pick up on like another
thing that that you're like, 

1312
01:03:10,120 --> 01:03:12,800
holy shit, that's so funny, 
right, that they like threw that

1313
01:03:12,800 --> 01:03:15,520
in there. 
Like there's definitely some 

1314
01:03:15,520 --> 01:03:17,760
jokes that go over your head. 
You know, it's just that's how 

1315
01:03:17,760 --> 01:03:19,360
it goes. 
But like this is one of those 

1316
01:03:19,360 --> 01:03:22,240
where like you have to rewatch 
it because the lines are so 

1317
01:03:22,240 --> 01:03:27,480
quick too, and they're in war. 
They're in a war zone and so 

1318
01:03:27,480 --> 01:03:29,640
like a lot of the dialogue, 
you're a little distracted by 

1319
01:03:29,640 --> 01:03:31,920
more of the action. 
And if you actually are 

1320
01:03:31,920 --> 01:03:34,800
listening to what they say, like
holy shit, like what? 

1321
01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:38,160
That's insane. 
So good for you, you you've, 

1322
01:03:38,240 --> 01:03:41,680
you've got a lot more to pick up
on what's. 

1323
01:03:41,800 --> 01:03:42,880
What do you got? 
You get total. 

1324
01:03:43,520 --> 01:03:45,480
Oh yeah, I got a 9.4 out of 10. 
Sorry. 

1325
01:03:45,600 --> 01:03:48,960
Yeah. 
All right, I have the acting. 9 

1326
01:03:48,960 --> 01:03:50,680
out of 10, hilarious, great 
improv. 

1327
01:03:50,720 --> 01:03:53,280
Writing 9 out of 10, same thing.
Improv. 

1328
01:03:54,240 --> 01:03:56,520
Love a good comedy with some 
improv like that. 

1329
01:03:56,520 --> 01:03:58,160
It's like solid and you know, 
there's these. 

1330
01:03:58,320 --> 01:04:01,560
Guys are masters at it too, so 
it's just so nice to watch them 

1331
01:04:01,600 --> 01:04:03,080
just kind of they're in flow 
state. 

1332
01:04:03,200 --> 01:04:06,600
Yep, in Tropic Thunder. 
Editing 6.5 out of 10. 

1333
01:04:07,040 --> 01:04:09,560
The only reason I have that 
score below solid but close to 

1334
01:04:09,560 --> 01:04:11,720
solid is because I there were 
some moments in the scene where 

1335
01:04:11,720 --> 01:04:15,640
I thought they like didn't cut 
quick enough between dialogue or

1336
01:04:15,640 --> 01:04:17,480
something. 
Not talking about the RDJ 

1337
01:04:17,480 --> 01:04:20,040
looking at sure, his crazy face 
that's hilarious to hold on. 

1338
01:04:20,040 --> 01:04:24,920
But like I think it was whenever
Tug Speedman is in captive in 

1339
01:04:24,920 --> 01:04:28,680
talking to the 12 year old 
leader of this drug gang or 

1340
01:04:28,680 --> 01:04:30,520
whatever. 
There was just it was like a 

1341
01:04:30,520 --> 01:04:32,600
moment where I like I don't 
really notice his things, but I 

1342
01:04:32,600 --> 01:04:34,720
noticed it here where it seemed 
like they didn't cut it quick 

1343
01:04:34,720 --> 01:04:35,640
enough. 
Like it seemed like there was 

1344
01:04:35,640 --> 01:04:37,400
like a weird pause when it 
should have been like quicker to

1345
01:04:37,400 --> 01:04:38,720
make. 
So just throw the rhythm off, 

1346
01:04:38,720 --> 01:04:40,240
yeah? 
I don't know, it just I felt odd

1347
01:04:40,240 --> 01:04:42,120
on that one part like that. 
Seemed like they should have 

1348
01:04:42,120 --> 01:04:43,440
maybe trimmed that up or 
something. 

1349
01:04:43,440 --> 01:04:46,680
So you took 4.5 points. 
Off I was going to go 7 out of 

1350
01:04:46,680 --> 01:04:47,800
10. 
It's not like insane editing or 

1351
01:04:47,800 --> 01:04:50,840
anything crazy, but yeah. 
Anyway, cinematography 7 out of 

1352
01:04:50,840 --> 01:04:52,760
10. 
Solid cinematography and 

1353
01:04:52,760 --> 01:04:57,560
enjoyability. 9.5 out of 10, for
a total score of 8.2 out of 10 

1354
01:04:57,560 --> 01:05:02,960
for Tropic Thunder Bear. 
But more importantly, is this a 

1355
01:05:02,960 --> 01:05:05,560
rewatchable movie? 
Is this something that like you 

1356
01:05:05,560 --> 01:05:08,840
can see yourself putting in the 
yearly rotation or like every 

1357
01:05:08,840 --> 01:05:10,800
two years like? 
1000%. 

1358
01:05:10,880 --> 01:05:12,920
Yeah, this. 
This is a heavy hitter. 

1359
01:05:12,920 --> 01:05:14,760
Yeah, again, I can't believe it 
took you this long. 

1360
01:05:14,760 --> 01:05:16,720
I know. 
This is. 

1361
01:05:16,760 --> 01:05:19,000
But that's a good thing. 
I think that's a good thing. 

1362
01:05:19,360 --> 01:05:21,200
It's nice. 
I just, I think if you're just 

1363
01:05:21,200 --> 01:05:23,600
like some dumb idiot kid that 
watches this movie, you're not 

1364
01:05:23,600 --> 01:05:27,120
going to understand it at all. 
And I'd say young dumb idiot kid

1365
01:05:27,120 --> 01:05:29,080
at meaning like 22. 
It's like when you get like, 

1366
01:05:29,080 --> 01:05:31,760
it's like a nice little treat. 
You get to get yourself watching

1367
01:05:31,760 --> 01:05:34,000
a movie like this. 
Yeah. 

1368
01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:36,400
For me, a while ago, it was The 
40 Year Old Virgin. 

1369
01:05:36,400 --> 01:05:39,280
Like I watched that late and I 
was like, first of all, I don't 

1370
01:05:39,280 --> 01:05:41,520
know how I haven't seen it, but 
I'm so glad I got to see it now.

1371
01:05:41,520 --> 01:05:44,560
And I get to laugh as hard as I 
did during this movie for the 

1372
01:05:44,560 --> 01:05:45,600
first time. 
Yeah. 

1373
01:05:46,280 --> 01:05:48,080
This is you know what? 
You know what this is? 

1374
01:05:48,560 --> 01:05:53,760
This is one of those movies 
where like my kid like will not 

1375
01:05:53,760 --> 01:05:58,400
be allowed to watch this movie 
until he's like 18 like for real

1376
01:05:58,400 --> 01:06:02,480
for real like not only because 
you know it's. 

1377
01:06:02,480 --> 01:06:04,760
Just not kid appropriate. 
It's not kid appropriate, but 

1378
01:06:04,760 --> 01:06:06,520
also he's just not going to 
understand it. 

1379
01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:10,800
So if I find out that like my 
kid is laughing at this movie, I

1380
01:06:10,800 --> 01:06:15,440
just know like no, you're 
laughing because you're fucking 

1381
01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:17,800
bad person. 
Actually, the first time I did 

1382
01:06:17,920 --> 01:06:19,560
try to watch this baby, I just 
remembered this. 

1383
01:06:20,160 --> 01:06:24,600
I watched it too young, I think,
and I wasn't really 

1384
01:06:24,600 --> 01:06:27,280
understanding what the movie was
and all the blood and gore in 

1385
01:06:27,280 --> 01:06:29,000
the beginning. 
Like I was like, oh, that's too 

1386
01:06:29,000 --> 01:06:31,720
much. 
I think I got Jay gets stabbed 

1387
01:06:31,720 --> 01:06:33,240
by the bayonet. 
Blood came out of the head and 

1388
01:06:33,240 --> 01:06:35,200
that like, I didn't realize it 
was like a fictional thing, 

1389
01:06:35,560 --> 01:06:37,800
'cause I was like a kid. 
I wasn't like super young, but I

1390
01:06:37,800 --> 01:06:41,400
was young where I just, I didn't
like that and I turned it off I 

1391
01:06:41,400 --> 01:06:42,520
think. 
I think I was like getting sick,

1392
01:06:42,520 --> 01:06:44,560
like this is crazy. 
I thought this was going to be 

1393
01:06:44,560 --> 01:06:46,080
like a super funny. 
I thought this was going to be 

1394
01:06:46,080 --> 01:06:47,280
step brothers. 
Damn. 

1395
01:06:47,280 --> 01:06:48,800
Yeah. 
I think that's why I didn't 

1396
01:06:48,800 --> 01:06:50,760
watch it when I was like the 
first time. 

1397
01:06:50,760 --> 01:06:53,080
I didn't finish it because I 
think I turned it off because I 

1398
01:06:53,080 --> 01:06:54,600
was a kid thinking it was too 
violent. 

1399
01:06:54,760 --> 01:06:56,960
It was too much gore. 
It's kind of crazy because you 

1400
01:06:56,960 --> 01:07:01,360
love a lot of killing, but that 
was like some intense killing 

1401
01:07:01,360 --> 01:07:02,360
that. 
Was some intense? 

1402
01:07:02,520 --> 01:07:05,880
He's got his guts out and like, 
you know, he's supposed to be an

1403
01:07:05,880 --> 01:07:08,640
actor. 
So the Jay has to play it, you 

1404
01:07:08,760 --> 01:07:10,560
know, as a guy that's like a 
good actor. 

1405
01:07:10,880 --> 01:07:12,680
He's like, I think I can put it 
back in. 

1406
01:07:12,920 --> 01:07:14,640
I can see it. 
Yeah, I think I was. 

1407
01:07:14,720 --> 01:07:16,480
I was like, oh, wait, this 
movie's going to be the humor is

1408
01:07:16,480 --> 01:07:18,520
going to be how violent it is. 
I'm like, oh, I don't know if 

1409
01:07:18,520 --> 01:07:20,400
I'm ready for this. 
This isn't Teladigon. 

1410
01:07:21,000 --> 01:07:23,520
Yeah, exactly. 
So that's funny, but yeah, I 

1411
01:07:23,520 --> 01:07:27,000
mean, that makes sense.
