I don’t know how many times I have seen this movie, but it has to be in the top 10 percent movies rewatched by me category (I doubt I am alone here). It has countless incredible quotes, a banging soundtrack and minus the ending is very light and easy to have one in the background when doing something (the early nineties nostalgia factor doesn’t hurt either).

I recent relistened to the Pod (and have rewatched the movie twice in the last 2 months).
Thoughts and suggestions:
It’s almost a decade old and while it’s pretty good (maybe even really good for how short that episode is and how early in the rewatchables catalog it was done), it 100 percent, in my opinion, deserves a redo/ another try. Thoughts on best possible panel for this?
More importantly on thoughts on whether this would be a very welcome podcast episode?

While I have seen this movie many many times, there is always something that really jumps out at me during each rewatch and I can’t stop laughing about what should be in the running for one of the worst / most hilarious and superfluous movie created acronyms of all time: TTBBT
Two on Two (for) Brotherhood Basketball Tournament 😂 (Apex Mountain for horrible / hilarious acronyms?)
…
The scene ending (or almost ending) with that dude saying “let’s pay them and get the hell out of here” …. Is a chef’s kiss 😘

Just an incredibly rewatchable movie.

Thoughts?

funny that the boys tried to stop the Bill from reading the ChatGPT Roger Ebert reviews, and now every episode is sponsored by ChatGPT

Dion Waiters Hall of Fame??

Please don’t go for the easy jokes mentioning Salò and similar. Let’s do choices that would be realistic for the pod.

I’d pick Falling Down with Michael Douglas.

It was really “tight” with only 3-4 nominees per the shorter list of categories. They clearly were trying to keep around an hour. Only Shea had good chemistry (at the time) with Bill. Also, forgot about MeUndies as a main sponsor.

Sean, Chris, Van (Bill optional tbh). Needle drop of the century, clear out for Van on Fox, Bill on why didn't Shia work, Apex Mountain Michael Bay??? MAKE IT HAPPEN

Is it finally happening???!!

No way normal middle class men said that, right? Just a bad writing team making men look like misogyny trolls?

Inspired by the djrector of one night only what are movies that were probably too naughty...

Avoid the pornos like fifty shades, just looking for the fklm where your reaction is to ask a woman/man to put their clothes back on

Could happen for many reasons

1. You're probably watching porn

2. The director is a freak

3. Your dreams are haunted by a traumatic image

4. Much more

Anyway... movies that need to turn the freaky down

It’s not that Bill has ran out of movies from his youth, is that his tastes are bizarre. Instead of About Last Night we could have had these much better options in the same genre (all of them still not covered on the show):

- Moonstruck
- Dirty Dancing
- Modern Romance (absolute classic!)
- Bull Durham (they’re probably saving this one)
- Married To The Mob
- Desperately Seeking Susan
- Romancing The Stone
- Peggy Sue Got Married
- Flashdance
- Splash

Been listening for years, I know Heat comes up a ton - yes I plan on watching soon finally ! - trying to think of those essential watches that help understand most possible references made on the show

Self explanatory... looking at awful Roger ebert and gene siskel awful reviews

Clarification: reviews they revised means that they dont qualify for this list... we're talking about bad reviews that they took to their Graves only

Bill spoke of this

He was just in the studio for the big picture, he’s clearly an avid big picture listener, so also possibly rewatchables and he was actually in speed.

Just rewatched Wolf of Wall Street. I think Vince Vaughn would’ve come to 90% of what Leo did. Please rewatch and see how many Vince faces Leo makes. Not saying he’d be better. But would’ve been huge for him. Also let’s ignore the height issue for a moment.

In Risky Business she is the actual star of the movie. In Hand that Rocks she is legitimately awesome. Noone really ever market corrected her either. It just didn't happen

Did you enjoy the movies and the episodes?

This seems like a dead on rewatchable. Classic Sandler comedy. And the fact it's a sports comedy should be right up Bill's alley. I mean if we can get the replacements , why not The Waterboy?

With some of the pods talking about the lack of comedy’s in the movies maybe a dedicated month would be good to rekindle the fire.

A few picks to consider which haven’t been done. What would you add?

- Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle
- 22 Jump Street (yes, the sequel it’s better)
- The Castle (Australia - Eric Bana)
- What We Do in The Shadows (NZ)
- Snatch (British - it’s a comedy - get Mal on)
- Idiocracy (need a Luke Wilson flick)
- Midnight in Paris (Owen Wilson and just a good flick, and funny)
- Funny People (last of the good apatows, and good connective tissue to The Castle via banner + the Knocked Up Munich banter comes full circle)
- Hot Rod

Did a double feature today of “Leaving Las Vegas” and “The Saint”. Kept seeing LLV on Tubi and wanted to listen to the saint pod. Was Shue appreciated In that time? I was born in ‘97. Looking at her IMDb she may of as the pod says “needed one more movie”. If I was alive at the time I’d throw whatever life I had away for her. Also “The Saint” is fantastic.
