Roasting our Terrible Taste in Movies | Trash Taste #60

- We live, baby! Everybody, shut up! We're making art! - You enjoy this content right now! - Is that what you say before you start recording? Content, content! - I shouldn't even notice what you're doing. It's so weak. We're in a new studio. You can shout, Garnt. - Can you give us an example of that? (Connor yells) (chill music plays) - Hello, gamers. Welcome back to another episode of the Trash Taste podcast. I am boy with boys. You guys know us by now. And we have a themed episode, as you can tell. - We've never done this- - We've never done this before. - Like, imagine this, what if we make a three by three, guys? Never done that before, before. - Have you heard of an episode that will not go on a tangent? I'm just kidding. We will go on tangents. - Well, I think 'cause we're, me and Garnt are planning to go out to the UK for a bit, so we need to record a little more episodes in advance. So, our solution to do that is themed episodes, so that we don't run out of stuff to talk about. - Yeah, we don't want to run out of stuff to talk about. - I like the three by three episodes 'cause it's just a good excuse to talk about shit that maybe we're not gonna ever tangent towards. - It's also just hilarious that we kind of brought back the three by three, like... - I didn't even know that was a thing. - Yeah, right. People haven't done it since like 2010. But anyway, we've done a couple of three by three episodes in the past. We did one on anime. We've done one on games, and I think this will be the third one now. We're gonna talk about movies! Not anime movies though. - Actual live action movies with real people. - [Joey] With real people. - Because I feel like we don't- - I like how we have to fucking specify we watch real movies. - Yeah, of course because to some people it's like, "Oh, so nine Ghibli films? "Is that gonna be-" - Honestly like I don't get to talk about live action movies a lot, even though I feel like I've watched a hell of a lot of live action movies. But the biggest problem I had when making this three by three was I don't remember what the fuck I've watched. - Well, we've been watching movies God knows how long, right? - For like my entire life. - There's no like my movie list either. - Yeah, I feel like when you got into anime specifically, it was probably at a point where you really like cared about it a lot, you know what I mean? So, you made note of what you're watching. You've been watching movies your whole God damn life 'cause it's just what you do. - Well, didn't you go through like the IMDb top 200? - I went through it to remind myself, "All right, what have I seen? "Okay, I know. "I like that, that one's good." - I literally had to go down that list to remind myself of what I've seen. - Okay, so what, like, what logic did you guys use to choose your three by threes? - Okay, so in my head, I always have like a top three movies ready. 'Cause, you know, you're always gonna be asked, "Hey, what's your favorite movies?" I always have like a top three, but three by three you need nine movies. So I'm like, all right, shit. All right, I'll fill in the rest of the six with like movies that I thought were really good that I want to recommend to people or movies that I know I've seen multiple times and I'll keep watching multiple times. - Mine were not recommendations at all. I was thinking maybe I'll just make the ones where like the movies I really, really like. And then I just like, I just went through like my list of movies I really liked, and I just like too many fucking movies. I literally could not narrow it down. It needs to be like a fucking top 50 list. - I've seen most of the IMDb top 200. I was like, this is not healthy. - It would literally just be like the IMDb top 200 most of the time. So like, I just went, fuck that. What are the movies that I've just seen the most? And like, if it's on TV, I'm just like, "I got time to watch this movie." - I don't know. I just picked movies that made me think of something. Feel, feel things. I don't know. - Raw emotions. - A movie that gave me an experience. - Yeah, I mean, I feel that's- - 'Cause yeah, I feel like the problem with that for me is that too many movies do that for me, so it's like- - You're out here like fucking having an emotional breakdown every movie you watch? - I like movies. I like movies. - It's really hard also to like get rid of recency bias as well. 'Cause like immediately I thought of like the last 10 movies I watched, and I'm like, "Were they as memorable as these other movies "that I probably haven't seen in like five, 10 years?" - I'm gonna say there's some movies on my list that I haven't seen in fucking years, and I've put them on just because- - I can't wait to quiz you about movies that you haven't watched in years. - I was like obsessed with them as a kid. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - So some of those are on my list, so. - What, do you got the fucking Teletubbies movies? (everyone laughs) How far back we talking here, Garnt? - Pretty far back. You'll see, you'll see. - So, let's see if our movie tastes are as pretentious as our anime tastes. But we're gonna decide as always with Trash Box to see who goes first. Oh, get that out of here. - Is that still in there from last time? - That's in there from last time. Throw that out. - That was a scripted joke last time, and we just forgot we put her in this time. - We forgot this time around. That was a genuine bit. All right, who wants to pick who goes first? - All right, I'll go first. - I hope it's not me. I really don't want to go first. Oh, thank God, it's Garnt. Thank God, it's Garnt. - Oh, fuck, I didn't want to go first. - Bring up Garnt's three by three. - Okay. - [Joey] So, you're logic for your three by three was- (Connor laughs) Oh my God. - This is why I didn't want to go first because I've got to fucking defend this shit. - Okay, there are some there where I'm like, "Okay, okay. "Genuinely good movies." And then there's a... - Okay, so this is split into two parts. - I just love how "Space Jam" is in the fucking middle. (Garnt laughs) It's like the fucking epicenter. - This is my movie! - As a fucking kid, like as a kid who grew up in the 90s, everyone went through a fucking "Space Jam" phase. This is a classic. It's a fucking classic. I mean, as a kid, I didn't watch the fucking NBA, didn't even watch the fucking "Looney Tunes." And even as a kid, I fucking watched this so many times, every time it was on TV, I rewatched this shit so much. "Space Jam" is amazing. - It's a good movie. - You sound like a kid trying to justify why you shit on the bed. (everyone laughs) Like to your parents. - Do you want to go through your list? - All right, so, okay. So, "Kung Fu Hustle." - [Connor] That's good. - [Joey] That's a good movie. - [Connor] That's a great movie. - [Garnt] "Rush Hour 2." (everyone laughs) - [Connor] Yo, I fucking love "Rush Hour 2!" - [Joey] Yeah, okay. - [Garnt] "Memento." "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World." - I had a feeling you were going to put "Memento" for some, I don't know why. - Yeah, I don't know why, 'cause I was that close to putting "Memento" on my list, but I'm like, "I feel Garnt's gonna put 'Memento' on." I don't know why. - [Garnt] "Space jam." - [Joey] Of course. - [Garnt] "The Matrix." - [Joey] First "Matrix," right? - [Garnt] Yeah, the first "Matrix." "The 40-Year-Old Virgin." (everyone laughs) "Snatch," and "Confessions." So, this is very much split up into my childhood obsession movies and then some movies that I just want people to watch and recommend them. That's why I've just watched it so many times. - Okay, so before, we, I guess, which movies have you seen, Joey, here? - I've seen all of them except for "Kung Fu Hustle" and "Confessions." - I've not seen, "Snatch" sounds so familiar. - Is "Snatch" the one where- - That's the one where he fucking is like a boxer, right? - Yeah. "Snatch" is a Guy Ritchie movie. - It's a good movie. - I think it's Guy Ritchie's best movie like by far. It's that and "Lock, Stock." And I was thinking about putting a Quentin Tarantino movie on, but- - I'm surprised there is no Quentin Tarantino movie. - Okay, I had a feeling someone else was gonna put it on. So, that's why I put on "Snatch" instead of Quentin Tarantino because it's like, "Snatch" and like "Reservoir Dogs" which is like my Quentin Tarantino movie of choice, it's kind of like, it's the same kind of feel for me. And I feel like more people know about Quentin Tarantino, which is why I wanted to put "Snatch" which is kind of like, if you want kind of a British Quentin Tarantino kind of movie where it's just got amazing dialogue. And I love the concept of a lot of different characters that has nothing to do with each other just kind of like merging into one coherent storyline. And there's just bants. The banter in this is so fucking good that I still quote this to this day. Like, so many of the lines I "come up with" just comes from "Snatch." (everyone laughs) It's just got great writing, great fucking humor. - Wow, Gigguk literally stealing from "Snatch" - I haven't seen "Confessions." - Oh, me neither. I've never even heard of it. - "Confessions" is actually a Japanese movie. (Joey gasps) - Very fitting. - I know, and it's the one movie- - Oh, Kokuhaku. I think I've read the book. I read the book, yes, okay. - I didn't know it was even based on a book. But it's probably my favorite revenge movie of all time. - I think it's a Miyabe Miyuki book. Is it the one where it's like set in high school? - Yeah. - With like two girls? - Kind of. - I think that's the one. - So, the concept of this movie is the main character is a teacher. And she used to teach, teach a class. And so these two students from these class, or I think it was like two or three students from this class, they basically murder her daughter. But because of Japanese laws, if you're like a minor, then you can't be charged even if you've technically like killed somebody. - Which is fucked. - Yeah, yeah, which is fucked, and that's like the whole premise of this movie. And the premise of this movie is just her basically playing fucking 5D chess against these high schoolers, and just coming up with a very unique like revenge scheme against these kids. And it's kinda like maybe similar to "Old Boy" if you've seen "Old Boy," but maybe just- - Yeah, I've seen "Old Boy." - Maybe just not as fucked. I think... - "Old Boy" is pretty fucked. - "Old Boy" is pretty fucked, and my problem with "Old Boy" is that- - I'm surprised "Old Boy" isn't on your three by three. - Well, my problem with "Old Boy" is I really liked it, but there are definitely some parts of "Old Boy" that really push your suspension of disbelief. Like, without spoiling, like without spoiling the ending of "Old Boy" or something, there's some plot elements where you're just like- - Like the final twist? - Yeah, like the final twist where you're just- - You've seen it? - Yeah. - The final twist where you're just like, "I guess..." (everyone laughs) "Can the human mind be tricked into doing this? "That's like kind of pushing it." What I like about "Confessions" is that it's kind of like the same kind of deal where it's one person getting revenge over people, but it's just, it's kinda like, she's kinda like a Light Yagami kind of character where it's a very, it's a very intricate revenge plot- - But it's believable. - But it's believable, and it's, I mean, it's believable because the whole premise is fucked to begin with. Because this is real, like, you know, Japanese minors cannot be charged even if they kill somebody, and that's like the premise of the movie. But the way it unravels is really, really interesting. And for a Japanese movie as well, one of the biggest things I remember when watching this movie for the first time is that out of nowhere they start playing Radiohead. - Hell yeah! - I'm just like, "Is that fucking Radiohead I'm listening to now?" And so Radiohead is- - Instant 10 out of 10. (everyone laughs) - And so like literally one of the best parts of this movie, it was just like, you know, like the song for like the epic reveal where she reveals everything, it's just fucking Radiohead. And I'm just like, "This is the best reveal I've ever seen in a movie." - Which Radiohead song is it? - I can't remember. - Just remember the emotions. - I just remember the emotions. But it's not the most famous Radiohead song. Yeah, it's the one movie that I think is like really underground 'cause it's a Japanese movie. And everyone who's watched it so far has been really, really fucking impressed. And I don't see many people talking about this movie 'cause I feel like Japanese cinema in general just gets looked over a lot, but- - I feel like 'cause they tackle very Japanese things more often than not. Like, the way they go about things is very Japanese and like kind of like doesn't really make, not that it doesn't make sense, but just kind of odd. - Yeah, there's a lot of like cultural elements and things that they throw back to that where other people will be like, "Oh, that doesn't happen in my school." - Yeah, you have to kind of like just look past a lot of things I think when you watch Japanese movies as foreigners. You can't relate to most of the stuff. - Yeah, 'cause like I've definitely read this book before and I really, really enjoyed it, like back in like high school as well. I think this is quite an old book. But yeah, I mean, for one, I didn't even know that this was like a movie, first of all. I didn't even know it was available in English. 'Cause like a lot of Japanese cinema doesn't make it outside of Japan. - There's always just translations online. - Oh yeah, of course. But it's like, I don't know. I just wasn't expecting this. - Yeah, like I recommend a lot of movies from this director. I can't remember his name, but "Confessions" is my favorite one. - Is it on the poster? - "Memories of Matsuko" is another movie that this director made that is like really underground even for like Japanese cinema, but it's fucking amazing. But yeah, just like if you're gonna take anything out of my three by three, watch "Confessions" because more people need to know about "Confessions." Kokuhaku. It's an amazing movie. It's one of the few Japanese movies that I think is just easily accessible to like anyone. You don't really need to know about Japanese culture. It's just a good revenge plot. And if you like "Old Boy" or, you know, a lot of Korean movies, you're probably gonna like "Confessions." - Yeah, Miyabe Miyuki I think is the original woman who wrote Kokuhaku. Like, all of her books kind of like deal with this kind of like, it's kind of like criticizing fucked up parts of Japan and like using it as like an advantage. - [Connor] I'm down for that. - It's really good, the book- - [Connor] That sounds really good. - Yeah. - Might actually watch it. The best movie on there is "The 40-Year-Old Virgin." - [Joey] Yeah, absolutely. (everyone laughs) - Honestly, I think... 'Cause I wanted to put a comedy movie on, I was thinking what comedy movie can I infinitely rewatch? - You've got like three on there. - [Joey] You've got "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World." "Space Jam," "Rush Hour 2." - [Garnt] Is that a comedy? - [Connor] "Scott Pilgrim" is a comedy. - "Scott Pilgrim" is a comedy. - Are you kidding me? (Garnt sighs) - I guess it's like a- - It's a fucking comedy. - It's a comedy! - It's nonstop jokes. - I mean, it's, okay, okay. - It is the best with visual comedy. - Yeah, okay, it is definitely a, it's a comedy movie, but it's not just got a comedy in it because I love, I mean- - Neither is "40-Year-Old Virgin." It's quite a story of a man coming to lose his virginity. - Of course, it's a great coming of age story. - Yeah, coming of 40-year-old age. - And I was thinking like what, 'cause I feel like recently comedy movies have kind of just died. I don't know if that's the thing. What's, what's... - Well, I mean, you know, it's like, there's like the fucking Will Ferrell movies and modern Adam Sandler films, outside of "Uncut Gems," have just fucking made it go to, I mean, it's literally only it. But also the Adam Sandler movies do extremely well on Netflix. - Oh, really? - They're some of the most watched things on Netflix. The ones that they bought off- - I don't think I've seen an Adam Sandler movie since- - 'Cause they're all so mediocre, his new ones. And the only one that he was amazing in which was, "Uncut Gems" is absolutely fucking amazing. It wasn't even his movie. He was just, he's the main actor. - I've heard. Is that a comedy movie or is that just a movie? - No, no, it's a pretty brutal movie. Really fucking good though. - All I've seen from that is the clip when he goes, "Oh my God, I'm gonna cum!" (everyone laughs) - What? - That's pretty much all I've seen of that movie. - I need to watch this movie now! - What is going on? Adam Sandler, what is happening right now? - Honestly it's a fucking amazing movie. - I need to watch this movie. - It's so fucking good. "Uncut Gems," please watch it if you haven't. I think it's his best role. - Yeah. But yeah, "40-Year-Old Virgin" is like to me the infinitely rewatchable comedy movie for me. - That used to play on British television, I think like once a fucking week. - No, that's why I've watched it so many times. - Everyone in the UK has watched it 'cause it use to play all the fucking time. - This is also one of those movies that never leaves the airplane. Like, it's always playing. - Exactly, exactly. - Like, if you look up movies on an airplane, like "the old classics" genre, it's always in there. - There's so many famous scenes in that movie, like the fucking tit scene where they talk about feeling a boob. - "It's like a sandbag." (everyone laughs) - And the fucking waxing scene as well. It's iconic, it's iconic. And I feel like this gets talked about less than maybe, like at least when it first came out, because the iconic- - Was that one if his like most famous, like was that one of the roles that blew him up? - This one was when I first started to know Steve Carell because I didn't know about him before because I think before that, the only thing I've seen him in was like "Bruce Almighty." But he had like one iconic scene out of that. - He wasn't the main character, yeah. - He wasn't the main character. I mean, it was Jim Carrey. But I feel like this was his first movie where I was just like, "Damn, this guy's funny. "This is a funny fucking movie." But, I remember back when this came out, the iconic comedy movie when this first came out was "Superbad." - Classic. - It was like 2000s humor. Like those movies were all the rage. - Everyone was quoting "Superbad," and I was just like, "I kind of think 'The 40-Year-Old Virgin' is funnier." That was just (laughs) that was just me back then. - I thought "Superbad" was funny for like two months. - Nah, nah, when you were in high school, "Superbad" is like the funniest shit. It's like, you're just going to. - When you've heard of like the, you know, 1,000th McLovin' joke, you're just like, "All right, yeah, I get it. "I get." - It's kind of same with "Borat," right? - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - I should've put "Borat" on mine. (everyone laughs) - Actually, it's so funny. Like, Sydney had never seen "Borat" before. So, she watched "Borat" for the first time in 2021 about like a month ago. And like, me, someone who's like been quoting "Borat" throughout my entire high school, it's been quoted to death. It's hard to find it funny anymore because it's just been like, everyone's just- - It's so ingrained. - It's so ingrained that I just cease to find it funny anymore. She still found it fucking hilarious. - It's so funny. It is legitimately hilarious. - It is really funny, yeah. - Like, when I watched that movie, all I think is like, "God damn, he's such a fucking amazing actor." There's no movie that even comes close to like that kind of experience, like, of what he does. It's crazy. - Admittedly, you know, like I can probably quote most of that movie, but I'd be lying if I said every time I heard Borat go, "My wife," like, I'm like, that's just hilarious. (everyone laughs) - 'Cause Borat said, "My wife," and Sydney just fucking lost it. And I'm like, "Oh shit, this was funny at a point. "I forgot this was legitimately funny." - The genius of fucking "Borat" was that it made you, on a service level you think that, "Oh, this is just hee hee funny movie," making fun of, but it was really just a really fucking intelligent way of showing how racist America is. - Yeah, exactly. - And that's how good, and the best part was is that those people were the ones quoting it after the movie came out. But it's like a genius way of showing it in a way that, like, he made a, he showed, like, how, like, I guess there was like a racist problems in America before it was like talked about wildly today. And still it was massively marketed towards the audience that often didn't even know that that's what he was poking fun at. It's genius. - Well, that's what I fucking loved about Ali G back in the day. - Oh my God, that's a name I haven't heard in so long. - He has a movie as well. - Oh my God, like the first time I watched that, like, I thought everything was scripted. And like a lot of it is, but like some of the interview scenes and stuff like that, like it's all non-scripted. I'm like, how the fuck does he do that? - He's just a genius at like being able to turn a situation and like make them look stupid without having to like make them think that he's playing a character. He's so good at that. - Like, he is actually like a social genius. He knows how to work people so well. And the thing is like, he gets so invested in this character. It's actually insane. - It must be a nightmare being married to him. (everyone laughs) - "Which character are you tonight, honey?" (everyone laughs) - Like, 'cause I remember like re-watching "Borat" with Sydney, there was this one scene where he gets drunk with a bunch of American frat boys. And at first I was like, "There's no way this is real. "This must be scripted." And so we looked into it, and it's totally real to the point- - He got drunk with them. - Yeah, to the point where he got like blackout drunk with them and just was able to stay in character this entire fucking time. - That's fucking dedication, man. It's insane. - So, I think by the time he goes to do these characters, it's so fucking baked in his head that he's this character that he doesn't even think, "Oh, I'm doing an act." - That's just him. - He just thinks this is me which is insane. I don't know. It's such an insane- - Maybe you should have put "Borat" on yours. - I didn't put "Borat" on mine. I wish I did though. Just like the whole, I just find it all so fascinating. And like "What is America" is so fucking funny as well. Like, oh, he's just so funny. - [Joey] Yeah, he's very, very good. - Absolute fucking genius. - Yeah. So aside from that, I guess, what else haven't you seen Joey? - I've seen everything, oh, "Kung Fu Hustle" I haven't seen. - "Kung Fu Hustle," fucking, that's, that's- - [Joey] It's a good movie? - That's a fucking banger. - I mean, it looks fucking awesome already. - To me it's like one of the closest you could possibly get to real life anime. It's somehow wacky. It's a wacky live action kind of slapstick. - Well, what it does is that it does, to parody martial arts movies, it just makes a martial arts movie that is just an anime. All the characters are like, "I have this power." And then they do like all weird fucking spells and shit. - Yeah, yeah. So, like the premise of this movie is like, there's like this like ax gang, this very famous gang, and for some reason they invade this very, very small village that nobody's heard of. And it's just like this secret village where coincidentally a lot of martial arts masters have just like all situated in this one city. - I love it already. - So, what happens is firstly, they find three martial arts masters who just happen to live in this city. They didn't know they lived in this city. Like, one person was just like, I think like a barber or something or... - It's been so long since I've watched it. - It's been so long. Yeah, but- - [Ashley] The noodle store owner. - Oh yeah, one was the noodle store guy. - [Ashley] The tailor. - Oh, the tailor, yeah, yeah. - [Ashley] One was, like, the laborer. - Damn, you remember the story. You remember this better than me, Ashley. - Were you in the movie? - And so after they find out these three martial arts masters are in this village, they were like, "Well, we got to send assassins "to assassinate them." So, they send assassins to like get rid of these three martial arts masters. And then it turns out that there are even more, like, higher up martial arts masters just living in there. - It's a pyramid. - Hierarchy. - Hierarchy. - Pyramid. And so like they just find out like more OP people just keep fucking invading this village and like more OP heroes just keep coming out of the woodworks. It's fucking great. - Oh yeah, it's just literally just escalation. - That sounds so good. - It's such a fun movie. - Why have I not heard of this movie? - It's really, if you watch martial arts movies- - Which I used to. - You'll know about this. - That's the thing, during high school, I had like a massive like spree of just watching every Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan movie and like all the martial arts movies I could think of. - Same here. - But I never heard of this one for some reason. - Yeah, I mean, I feel like if you did go through that martial arts phase, this is like one of the peak of just, it knows the genre so well that it kind of parodies itself. But at the same time takes itself 100% serious. It's just one of the best- - I'd argue that's the best kind of movie. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly! It does everything well for a martial arts movie, and that's why I love it. It's got the wacky fights, and it's got like the really well choreographed fights as well. But speaking of martial arts fights that defines my childhood, "Rush Hour." (everyone laughs) - Speaking of Jackie Chan, there he is right there. - What can you say? - I wish there was more "Rush Hour." I need the dynamics. - I really think that the "Rush Hour" series was what got me into the whole martial arts genre to begin with. (Garnt laughs) - Yeah, I mean, honestly, maybe same. I don't know. It was so funny. My friend showed me it when I was like really young, and I just fucking fell in love with it. It was so fun. - Yeah, I mean, it's like Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker is a dynamic that on paper should never work. They should never have the chemistry that they do, but they have such good chemistry. And the amount of times I've rewatched "Rush Hour" one and two, especially in my childhood, was just like uncountable. I actually don't know how many times I've rewatched it 'cause it like defined like a good, like, five-year period of my life because that was what started my martial arts phase where I just watched so many different martial arts movies, it's 'cause of "Rush Hour." - Jackie Chan is very, very funny. - He's one of the most charismatic actors. - I feel like in that that's carried by Jackie Chan, like how good he is at playing like dumb. - Yeah. - So good in this. - Him playing off Chris Tucker, it's just, it's just- - Chris Tucker's just Chris Tucker. And then Jackie Chan. - He's just funny by himself. And Jackie Chan is also like funny by himself for like a completely different reason. It's like completely clash of styles. But like I remember when I was doing, doing, not the anime awards, the Trash Taste awards. When I was doing the "I have a dream" speech. People were just like, "Wow, Garnt's really parodying Martin Luther King "really well." And I'm just like, I actually just took that speech from "Rush Hour 2" when Chris Tucker did it at the casino scene. - All of your fucking jokes and everything come from fucking movies. - Everything you hear on Gigguk is just movie quotes. - I mean, this is the secret coming out. When I'm just like, these are the movies I've rewatched so many times that they're just ingrained in my mind. - Was "Rush Hour 2" the best one? - I think it was. - What was the plot of "Rush Hour 2," is that the Paris one? - No, that was "Rush Hour 3." That was, that (laughs) "Rush Hour-" - I love he just immediately knows this. He's like, "Yeah, that's 'Rush Hour 3.'" - I can't remember a distinction between any of them. They're all just one. - All of the "Rush Hours" kind of just blend together for me. - Yeah, I remember "Rush Hour 1" and "2" were the good ones. - Was "3" bad? I don't think "3" was bad. - I think "3" was average. - "3" was kind of like the contested one. - I mean, Jackie Chan was getting like a little bit old when "Rush Hour 3" happened, so like you could tell that he couldn't do as many stunts as he could do. "Rush Hour 1" and "2" I feel like was Jackie Chan more, like, he could get away with more things. - He was in his prime. - I don't feel it was his prime, but it was definitely closer to his prime. - The back end of his prime. (everyone laughs) - I think his prime was in like 1990. - But yeah, I remember, I don't know why, but I remember as a kid, I slightly preferred "Rush Hour 2." I think that was the slightly better movie. But I mean, "Rush Hour 1" is still fucking brilliant as well. - [Joey] I mean, can we also just talk about the fact that I fully expected you to put "Memento" in your three by three. - Yeah, why? Why? - It just seems like- - Have I ever talked about it? - No, it just seems like a Garnt movie. - I can picture the Gigguk video. He's like, it's like, "Guys, what if I told you you could go back "and get pictures or something?" I just, I feel like I would hear, I would hear like- - How is that my Gigguk video? - I feel like I can see you making a video about "Memento" even though you never, it just feels like a Gigguk- - Yeah, if I can imagine anyone making a "Memento" video, it's either you or John. - I don't know why. It just seems like the kind of thing you would talk about. - It's just like a very like artsy film. I mean, it's a really good film. - Is it an artsy film? I don't think it's an artsy film. - It's a bit artsy. - It's like Christopher Nolan being Christopher Nolan, being like, "I have 500 IQ. "Watch me try to present my 500 IQ on film." And it's just like, "Memento" is one of the few, like, films I think he's made that actually, it was just like, "Oh, Nolan, that was pretty smart. "I gotta give you-" - Well, "Memento" actually was written by his brother. - Okay. - Yeah, it's based off like a four page novella written by Jonathan Nolan. Christopher was like, "You have four pages? "Let me turn that into 400 and get Guy Pearce in it." - Yeah, because I remember this was one of his first movies and they actually, I think this was, I didn't know it was based on a novella because I know that they made a short film around this, which I've actually seen, and that's also really good, and they expanded on this idea. And it's just like Nolan with no budget. Like, but still doing the same kind of Nolan ideas. Like, before he had a budget and- - Like "Tenet." - It's "Tenet" without a budget. (everyone laughs) - And then "Tenet" happens and then he forgot that he had to write like characters and a plot, and just like (laughs) to go along with the cool ideas he had in his head. But like, I feel like this and "Inception," I mean, "Inception" has been memed the fuck to like hell and back. But I remember the first time I saw "Inception," I thought it was fucking amazing. - Oh, of course, yeah. - I mean, like I will always give Nolan the chance just because his peak- - He always does something interesting. - Like, he always, you know, even if he doesn't make the best movie, he always has interesting ideas and he always tries something new, which is what I can respect. Not everything hits the mark, but it's Nolan. You can expect that he's not gonna stay in his comfort zone. - I mean, "Memento" is definitely one of those movies that like, well, A, you have to watch more than once to fully understand it, but B, even after multiple watches, it's like, "I don't get it." - So to explain "Memento" to anyone who hasn't seen it, this is, yeah, it's gonna sound so weird, but it's a movie that plays in reverse kind of. - Kind of. - Yeah, because it's about this guy who has a condition that gives him short-term memory loss. So, he can only remember at most like five minutes at a time? - [Joey] Something like that. - Something like that. - What a horrible existence. - Yeah, yeah. - There's someone like that in real life, I think actually. - Yeah, I think so. - Yeah, I mean, this is an actual real condition that exists. - Love how they made it into a real thing. (everyone laughs) - Oh, you can't believe it. - Oh my God, I can't believe you have the same condition as that guy from "Memento." (everyone laughs) But so because of this, you're only presented like five minutes of this movie at a time. And it's a movie that plays in reverse. And it's about this guy who has this condition and is trying to get revenge for the person who murdered his wife, which, you know, it's... Combine a five minute memory, a five minute short term memory with a long-term revenge plot. Things are... - Things are about to get confusing. - Things are gonna get confusing, especially for the main character. - Have I watched this movie? - It's the one where, like, every time he comes to again, he looks at his body because he tattoos all of his memories onto his body. - I think I've heard so much about this movie that I think I've seen it, but I don't actually think I've ever seen it. - Oh, really? - I don't think I have actually. - It's very good. - But I know the plot and I know what happens. - Yeah, yeah. Everyone knows the plot to this movie. - Everyone talks about it. - You know what happens? - Yeah. - Okay. - So, you know the twist, right? - I believe I do. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, we're not gonna say it. - I don't wanna know just in case I'm wrong. But I think I know what the twist is. - But like, I just remember the first time I watched this movie and I'm just like, "Damn, this is legit, like, really clever." 500 IQ meme aside, you know, you don't have to have a high IQ to enjoy this movie. - It's a very well-made movie for such a confusing concept. - Because at the beginning you were just like, how am I supposed to follow along when the movie is playing in backwards? How am I supposed to, like, how is anything supposed to be surprising to me? And he finds a way to keep it interesting throughout the entire run of the movie. And then the ending kind of just like slaps you in the face. And you're like, "Oh. "Oh shit, I did not see that coming, okay." And yeah. And then this kind of launched his career, and I feel like this is one of his best works. - Yeah, I agree with that. - Wow, thank you. Thank you for that talk, Garnt. - Welcome to my TED Talk.

Back to the episode. - I definitely need to watch "Kung Fu Hustle" and "Confessions." - Yeah. - Have you watched "Scott Pilgrim?" - Of course, yeah. - I liked "Scott Pilgrim." - I really like "Scott Pilgrim." - It's a good movie. - I mean, it's a good movie? It's a good movie? - I think it's a really good movie. - I mean, I'm a huge fan of Edgar Wright. Edgar Wright's the other director where I'm just like, "Whatever you make, I'll fucking watch it." - Edgar Wright is like the master of visual comedy where like, he manages to cut something in a way or just like edit something in a way that just makes it like, "Whoa, I wasn't expecting that. "But that's hilarious." - Yeah, it's just, he's one of the few people who, whatever genre he takes on, he'll put his own spin on the genre. Like, it's so rare to find someone who you can just watch a movie and you can just tell it's Edgar Wright through the editing itself because it's such a- - The snappiness of it. - It's just like the unique and the snappiness and the like- - It's very rhythmic, isn't it? - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Is this your favorite Edgar Wright film? - I think it is. - I think mine is still "Shaun of the Dead." - I was debating putting "Shaun of the Dead" on. "Hot Fuzz," I like "Hot Fuzz." - That's a great movie, yeah. - "Hot Fuzz" is good. I just feel like the first half was like a little bit boring. That's why I don't think it's as strong as a "Shaun of the Dead." And "Scott Pilgrim" I feel like is the most Edgar Wright film there is because- - I feel "Scott Pilgrim" couldn't be made by any other director. - No, no, that's the thing, right? I feel "Shaun of the Dead," Sean Penn... Is that his name? - Yeah, Sean Penn. - Sean Penn and Nick... - Cannon? No. - I was about to say Nick Fury, then I was like, wait, that's not- - [Ashley] You're thinking of Nick Frost. - Nick Frost, that's it. Nick Frost. - [Ashley] You also said Sean Penn not Simon Pegg. - Oh, I said Sean Penn. (Garnt laughs) - Oh no, Sean Penn is the one that dies every movie! - I was wondering who you were talking, I was like, I don't think he's, I'm trying to think like when you said that. - No, Sean Penn is not the one that dies in every movie. - Yeah, Sean Penn is the one that always dies in every movie. - [Ashley] No, that's Sean Bean. - Oh, that's Sean Bean. - Oh, that's Sean Bean. (everyone laughs) - Why is there so many Seans? - Sean Penn is... Who's Sean Penn? - [Ashley] He was married to Robin Wright. - Who the fuck is that? - Whatever. - We got a fucking living IMDb page right here. - [Ashley] She played Kevin Spacey's wife in "House of Cards." - I haven't seen "House of Cards." - I've seen "House of Cards." - Okay, but going back to "Scott Pilgrim," the reason I put this on is 'cause like I do really, really fucking like "Shaun of the Dead." But I feel like "Scott Pilgrim" is just the most Edgar Wright movie to exist at the moment. It's him on like his best form. And I feel like, this movie kind of, like, I feel like defined a whole generation of nerds. Like, you've seen so many people who just base their entire fucking personality on this one movie. You know who you are. You know who you fucking are. Like, you meet that person at like, you meet one person like that at like every anime convention you go to. - [Joey] Of course, yeah. - But- - Well, I mean, I think the reason why it works so well is because like again, Edgar Wright's like way of directing is very like over-exaggerated and like very not rooted in reality. And that works perfectly with "Scott Pilgrim" 'cause "Scott Pilgrim" is based off of fucking comic books. It's very comicy. - Was this the first Edgar Wright film you watched? - No, "Shaun of the Dead." Like, I literally watched his movies like from the beginning, I mean, I watched "Spaced" before "Shaun of the Dead." So I'm like, I've known of them for like a very, very long time. - I think most people in our age group started with "Shaun of the Dead," right? - I really like "Hot Fuzz." I don't know why. - "Hot Fuzz" is really good. - I mean, it's a really good film. - I think that's maybe my favorite. - I feel like it's, out of like the Cornetto trilogy, it's like the middle favorite for me. It's like "Shaun of the Dead, "Hot Fuzz," then I can't remember the third one then. - [Ashley] "The World's End." - "World's End," that's it! - Well, I also, I think "Hot Fuzz" is like where I grew up, those kinds of towns. - Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. - It's like, "Oh shit, that is real." - It's very much like if you're not like familiar with British, like, comedy- - It's literally like they ripped my town. I know they didn't but it's very much similar to- - I feel like that was the vibe they were going for. - That's why "Hot Fuzz" like barely made it big in the US 'cause like, you know, a lot of the references Americans don't get. - I mean, I feel like "Shaun of the Dead" and "Hot Fuzz' were both very much cult hits. Because they're very much ingrained in British humor and British culture, you know. You watch "Hot Fuzz" and you probably can get a vibe of what the place like he grew up in, which is like- - Nothing bad happens here. - Yeah. It's just like not something you can say for many other British films even. I mean people, when people think British films or British culture, they're like, "Oh, it's like 'Harry Potter,' right? "Everything's like 'Harry Potter' over there." - Everyone's just wizarding. - Yeah, but I think another thing that's been lost through time was just how fucking unpopular this was when this first came out. Because now it's just like nerd culture. Ha ha mainstream nerd culture. Hi, I'm a nerd guys. I identify as a nerd. But I remember when I first saw this in theaters, I saw this by myself in a completely empty theater in Brighton. - Wow, really? - Because nobody wanted to see this fucking movie! - Was it a marketing issue? - Huh? - Was it a marketing issue? - Maybe. - Maybe the nerds just didn't want to expose themselves. Except for Garnt who's like, "Fuck you, dude." - Normally, it's normally a marketing issue, especially if it's a good movie. - I mean, this movie fucking bombed in the cinemas. It was only afterwards- - Definitely a cult. - It definitely became a cult movie that got picked up and more people watched as like nerd culture became more mainstream. But I remember the first time watching this, it blew my fucking mind how good this was. And I couldn't tell anyone about it 'cause nobody was interested in watching it. - Just tell them to watch it. - How do I sell this? How would you sell this to someone? Like, go back 20 years. How do you sell this to someone, to like one of your mates or something? - Just tell them it's really good. You wanna watch it again. (Garnt laughs) - "So what's it like? "What's it like? "Tell me." - "I'll just take you. "Just shut up." - "Shut up and I'll take you. "Don't expect anything." - "Buy some popcorn and have a good time." - "Is it like the fooey?" - No, fuck off. (Garnt laughs) "Space Jam," you already mentioned that you grew up with it and whatnot. What about "Matrix" there? - "The Matrix," I mean... - Do you really feel that strongly about "The Matrix?" - Honestly as a kid, yeah, I did. - As a kid, yeah. I feel like it's one of those things where I just care about it as like referential. Like, it's so famous and so referenced. But now I don't really give a shit about "The Matrix." - Yeah, I didn't really give a- - It was revolutionary when it came out. It was like, "Whoa, you can do that?" - I'm also biased. That fucking scene where they put the thing inside of the stomach gave me nightmares as a kid. - I've already talked about that, yeah. That fucking gave me nightmares. I will say, I don't think "The Matrix" has aged very well. - Oh no, definitely not. Especially the first one. - I've definitely rewatched it and I'm just like, "Oh God, I thought this was really cool." I thought this was like the coolest thing when it came out 'cause that's why- - It's kind of shit. It's kind of shit. - It definitely hasn't aged well. - It definitely has not aged well. - But that's because there's been since "The Matrix," there's been a million "Matrix" clones that are just shot better. - But I mean, like I feel like part of the big reason I got into anime was because of "The Matrix' as well. 'Cause I'm just like, I see this, and then this was like my anime taste for a long time because I thought this was cool as shit, and I wanted to find more things like this. - Just iconic as fuck really. - It's iconic as fuck. And I remember, I think the first time I saw this, when did this come out? 1999? - '97, I think. - Okay, I think I was like nine or 10 when I first saw this. Way too young to be seeing this. But I remember thinking this was like the coolest thing, which it was. - It was. - For the time. - Yeah, for the time, yeah. - For the time. - Showing your age there, Garnt. - When he like pulls the red and blue pill, it was like, "Which one is he gonna pick?" - I thinK by my age when I was old enough to be able to appreciate it, it'd kind of fallen out. - Oh, definitely because- - I was like, what, like 16? So that was like eight years ago. - At that time, right, there'd already been a million clones of "Matrix." - By the time that came out for you, people who would dress like the people in "The Matrix" are like neckbeards holding a katana with like a fedora, right? If "The Matrix" was made nowadays, it's just like the person who's just learned the way of the blade. - I didn't really watch many, like, nerd movies though growing up. Like, I never watched- - What defines a nerd movie? - Yeah, what defines nerd movie? - "Star Wars." I've still yet to watch the original "Star Wars" trilogy. - Really? Or like "Lord of the Rings" or anything like that? - I love "Lord of the Rings." I mean, that's probably the nerdiest of nerd- - I haven't watched "Lord of the Rings." - The fuck? - You haven't watched "Lord of the Rings?" - Wait, what's weirder, not watching "Star Wars" or "Lord of the Rings?" - You haven't watched "Star Wars?" - Okay, you're both fucking weird to me! You haven't watched "Star Wars," you haven't watch "Lord of the Rings." - I feel like you have to watch "Lord of the Rings." - I feel like you have to watch "Star Wars" in that sense then. - No, you don't. - You don't have to, okay. You don't have to watch one, two, and three just at least four, five, six. - Yeah, I've only watched one, two, and three. (Joey laughs) - I don't count that as watching "Star Wars." - I've not watched the original trilogy. - You have to watch the original trilogy. - I just don't give a shit. - If you sat through 12 hours of "Lord of the Rings," you can sit through three "Star Wars" movies. - I used to watch like the director's cut of "Lord of the Ring" back to back. - It's like 15 hours. - Back when we used to car journey, we used to go to France every holiday. It was a 12 hour journey. And I was like, like longer than 12. So, I was like, "Great, I'll watch the 'Lord of the Rings' director cuts "back to back in one sitting." I used to do that like on the way there and on the way back. - I like "Lord of the Rings," but that's too much "Lord of the Rings" for me. - Honestly the reason I haven't watched "Lord of the Rings" is, okay, I have watched the first movie. Fell asleep, thought it was boring, never came back. - Really? - How old were you? - When did it come out? - The first one? "Fellowship of the Ring" came out in like mid-2000s, right? - Yeah, wait. - It's like 2003 or something, right? - Yeah, something like that. - So, I remember my cousin watching it, and he was like- - [Ashley] 'O1. - '01. Holy shit, that's a 20-year-old movie? Sheesh. - So, I think was about like 13, 14 when I attempted to watch it, and I don't know, like- - That's like the prime time though! I feel. - This is gonna sound weird like coming from the isekai guy. I just don't find fantasy all that interesting. - What the fuck? That's all you fucking talk about. That's all you talk about! - Okay, okay, okay, okay. - Watch it now. You like fantasy now. - Bring back Garnt. This is not Garnt. - Go back and watch it now. - Anime fantasy, yeah. I fucking fuck with that. Real life fantasy, get this shit out of my face. - Oh my God, what a weeb. (Garnt laughs) What a fucking weeb. - Bro, go watch it. Actually give it a shot. - "If it doesn't have hot anime titties in an isekai world, "I don't want it." - Basically. (everyone laughs) - I appreciate the honesty. - Is the main character overpowered? No, Frodo's like, Frodo can't do shit. - That's why it's so good. - That's why it's good because he fights through all of these like insanely impossible to survive situations with the power of friendship, bro. - Every single movie has just amazing scenes in it. - Dude, Sam, best waifu. I'm just saying right now. He's best waifu, dude. He supPorts Frodo from start to finish. - What's your favorite "Lord of the Rings" movie, Joey? - Probably third one. - See, this is what I mean, you can say any one of those movies is the best movie, and I'm like, "That's totally fair." Like, every single movie is great. - Yeah, all three movies are fantastic. - So good. You gotta watch it. - Yeah, maybe. - We should watch it together. - It's long though. It's long. - We don't have to watch the director's cut and shit. We can watch the normal ones, which is still like 10 hours, but still. - No, no. The director's cut can only really be appreciated after you've loved the first cut because they didn't want the bonus stuff. - Yeah, exactly. - You need to make sure you love it first. - Okay, I'm sitting you down to watch "Lord of the Rings," I'm sitting you down to watch "Star Wars." - No, no, no. I don't think you do. - I don't feel like "Star Wars" is necessary. - Honestly, I'm... Okay, I've pissed off "Lord of the Rings" fans. (Joey laughs) Let me piss off "Star Wars" fans. - Say it, Garnt. - I prefer the prequels. - [Ashley] What? (everyone laughs) - I've never just silenced a room so fast. - That was the loudest one second silence I ever heard. - I know the plot to the original trilogy and like Darth Vader. I just think Darth Vader looks fucking boring. Like, I've played the Lego games, so I know the story. - "So, I basically know 'Star Wars' guys." - I know the story and I just think that like Darth Maul, fucking bad ass. - Okay, to be fair- - General Grievous, only the coolest- - Count Dooku? - Count Dooku's meh. General Grievous is the coolest fucking "Star Wars" character. - To be fair, to be fair- - Jar Jar Binks, amazing. (everyone laughs) - If we're gonna say our hot takes on like "Star Wars," I'm just gonna say it, I think "Episode I" is actually really fucking good. - I think, well, obviously, because I prefer the prequels. - Darth Maul fight and the podracing is like the two greatest scenes in "Star Wars." - Honestly, because the reason I prefer the prequels, to defend myself is, okay, number one, I really don't give a shit about "Star Wars." - I couldn't care less about "Star Wars." - [Joey] That's fair. - It's just not something I'm interested in. - I'm not passionate about "Star Wars" either. - The Lego games are just bangers. (everyone laughs) They're great. - True. - And it's just like, I remember watching, I've actually seen the original trilogy a lot of times because someone's always got it on in the background. Someone's always watching it at some fucking family, family gathering or something. Or it's like playing at Christmas. I don't know why. But someone's always watching it, so I've seen it so many fucking times. And I kind of find it like just boring. It's just a very standard movie with like, it's just... What's original about "Star Wars" nowadays? - Well, nowadays it's not because again very much like "Matrix" it's just been copied to shit. - Yeah, it's kind of just like "The Matrix" to me where it's just, to me it's just boring now. It's just a very normal standard movie, and it's just like, yeah, Luke goes on a hero's journey and Darth Vader is the villain and yada yada yada. - That's why I never like cared to watch episodes seven, eight and nine because in my mind, I'm just like, it's not really like a fantasy to- - Is nine out? - [Ashley] It's been out since what... - See, I don't even know. - Didn't people like hate the last two movies? - I think so, yeah. "Episode VII" was the only one were people were like, "It was pretty good." - Yeah, but like, to me, there are so many like scenes in the prequels that just stand out to me. Like, that fucking duel with Darth Maul and like fucking Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan. Holy shit! That is iconic! - That fight to this day still is the best fight scene in "Star Wars" and it has the best theme. - Oh my God. - The Darth Maul theme, dude! - Yeah, yeah. - Darth Maul was terrifying as well. - Darth Maul was fucking- - Fuck the Darth Vader theme. - Fuck Darth Vader. What's scary about someone having asthma? Like, fucking... I have asthma. Does that make me fucking scary? No, fuck that. - Also in the prequels, we didn't get to see Anakin kill the kids. I like that part. (Joey laughs) - Like, are you kidding me? Like, the first time you see, like, Count Dooku fight Yoda, holy shit, man. That was, to me, that was like by far the one "Star Wars-" - The only thing that irks me about the original three episodes is that Yoda is literally a puppet. - General Grievous wasn't in all of them. - Yoda is literally a puppet. - People love that though. - Yeah, I know. I don't get that. I prefer when he's like, you know, has emotion in his face. - I liked him when he was fucking shit up! - Yeah, when he was like flipping in the air and shit. - When he brings out the lightsaber and he starts doing fucking like gymnastics and all this shit. - Also I love Samuel L. Jackson though. - Yes, Samuel L. Jackson. - Samuel L. Jackson is the only thing that made "The Clone Wars" bearable. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - When he pulls out the purple lightsaber, I was like, "My man! "Let's go!" - It's like the coolest, the only thing I actually gave a shit about "Star Wars" was the jedis, and what's not in the fucking, like what's hardly in the original trilogy and like the sequels? It's the jedis! That's what I want. I want to see cool jedis fights. I want to see cool lightsaber fights. - Also all the best memes come from the prequels. - That's true. It did get memed to shit. - So yeah, I'm sticking by my gun. I prefer the "Star Wars" prequels. Come at me "Star Wars" fans. - I wonder how many dislikes this clip's gonna have. (everyone laughs) - "Star Wars" is kind of boring. - Fair. I'm not gonna sit here and pretend like it's the greatest fantasy story ever written. But I mean, you know, it's dece. - I mean, that's the biggest thing. I'm more passionate about not caring about "Star Wars" and like "Lord of the Rings" I've seen some of like the action scenes, and I'm like, I could probably get into it. There's just- - Oh, the battles. Bruh! - The battles are fucking everything. - Battle of Helm's Deep. Bro! Got me acting up. - So good. (everyone laughs) - Battles are so good! - "Lord of the Rings" battles make me act up. - Yo, we still haven't had battles as good as "Lord of the Rings." It's been like 20 years and nothing has come close. - Dude, give me another hour and a half long fight scene, man, I need that in my life. - It's insane, bro. That guy literally pitched that and they were like, "All right, let's do it." - "So you want the fight scene to be how long?" - And they fucking did it. - They did it. - What's this? - It's an hour and a half battle scene. And it's fucking amazing. - That doesn't cut away to anything. It's literally an hour and a half of fighting. - It's fucking amazing. - All right, I guess you sold me. I guess that's all I need. - They still build character and story in a battle without like bullshit disbelief of, "What's going on? "Is everything okay?" It's like literally they're like in the middle of fucking- - They're literally monologuing as they're fighting. - I actually remember why I stopped watching "Lord of the Rings" (laughs) 'cause, 'cause I was actually watching it with my cousin. And so they go on this journey and I kept asking, "Are they there yet?" (everyone laughs) And he literally got so fucking pissed off with me. 'Cause I was just like, "Are they there yet? "When are they gonna get there? "Are they close to coming there?" And he's like, "Garnt, shut the fuck up!" (everyone laughs) - You also can't watch "Lord of the Rings" with someone who is a giga fan. You need someone to shut the fuck up when you're watching. - That's my pet peeve. - Please, please- - People who love "Lord of the Rings," unfortunately will tell you everything about "Lord of the Rings" throughout every single moment. - Yeah, please don't be that guy who just quotes the movie as it happens. I literally can't stand it. - That is my least favorite thing. - And like what's even worse is like not even when they're quoting out loud, when they think they're being conspicuous about it and they just like start mouthing to themselves. (everyone laughs) - No, the one I hate more is when they whisper to themselves right before it happens. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - I get it, you've seen this movie 17,000 times. Shut the fuck up. - I hate when people are like, "Oh, this part's good." It's like, well, I'll decide that. Don't tell me this part's good. I'm about to fucking watch it. I'll decide if this part is good. - Don't be that guy please. - I mean, I've... You know, you always have that part where you show someone a movie you really like, but I try to be as subtle about it as I can. Because like, in my mind, I'm like, "This good part's coming up." And I'll like try to like see on the corner of my eye if they're watching it. Like, if I was invisible, I'd be like full on Elmo. You know? Like. - Don't look at me like that. - That's the other pet peeve I have when I'm showing a movie to a friend or whoever and in my head, I'm like, "Oh, this next scene, they're gonna love." And I look over and they're just out on their phone. Don't be that guy. - Yeah, don't be that guy. - Etiquette, come on. Movie etiquette. - But anyway, that's my three by three. These are not my favorite films, well some of these I fuck with still.

Who is next? Oh, should I do it? - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - [Joey] All right, who's next? Me or Connor? - Joey is next. I swear I'm always last, right? - Yeah, you are. - Why is that? All right, well, hopefully mine won't be too pretentious. (everyone laughs) What? - [Garnt] Okay, okay. - Is mine pretentious? I don't know. - At first I saw "Apocalypse Now" and I'm just like, did you just go through the IMDb top 250? - Okay, so I'll go through them. So, from top left to bottom right we have "King's Speech," "Rashomon," "Bruce Almighty," "Apocalypse Now," "Pulp Fiction," "Goodfellas," "Austin Powers Goldmember," "Gladiator," and "Kamera o Tomeru na." - Okay, I've seen every English speaking movie. - I had a feeling you'd put Japanese. - What are these Japanese movies? - What are these Nihongo movies? I say that as I put one on mine. (everyone laughs) - Yeah, so which ones have you guys seen and not seen? - All of these except for, I don't think I've seen "Apocalypse Now." - Oh, you've never seen "Apocalypse Now?" - Actually I haven't seen "Apocalypse Now" either. - [Joey] What? - The two Japanese films. - Okay, so like as I was saying earlier, like I always have that like top three movies in case anyone at like a panel always asks me. And my top three that I always bring up is "Apocalypse Now," "Pulp Fiction," and "Goodfellas." - I mean, those are all fucking bangers, honestly. - I mean, this is top 10 IMDb films. - I don't even know. - I feel like "Goodfellas" and "Pulp Fiction" definitely are like top 20. - Oh yeah, "Goodfellas" and "Pulp Fiction" are definitely up there. - I've never, wait, no, I haven't watched "Goodfellas." - Oh, you've never seen "Goodfellas?" - I've never watched "The Godfather" or "Goodfellas." - [Joey] Oh really? - Yeah, have you not? - You know how you said like sometimes you just save a movie that you just know you're gonna love? I'm just like, you know, I don't need to watch it right now, but I know I will and I know I'll enjoy it. - Yeah. I mean, like, I feel like if we're going through like that IMDb thing, like most people are like, "Oh yeah, 'Godfather.'" Like, the "Godfather" trilogy, yeah, that's definitely one of those. And it's like, the "Godfather" trilogy is good and like, I like a lot of Martin Scorsese films. But I think out of all of them, "Goodfellas," it's a tie for me between "Goodfellas" and "Casino." - Oh, I feel like "Casino" is so underrated. - Yeah, "Casino" I feel is a very underrated Martin Scorsese film. But I put "Goodfellas" there because it was like- - It's the classic. - It's the classic, it was the first, like- - Safe. Safe is what I'm seeing here, Joey. - It was the first Martin Scorsese like gangster film I ever watched. And then like, you know, and then obviously I went back after that and was like, I'll watch "Godfather" and "Taxi Driver" and like all those. - I think the thing about "Godfather" is that, I obviously recognize it as a good movie, but there's a difference between me being like, "Oh, this is a really good movie" to "This is a movie "that I really personally enjoy." And for me, "Godfather" is like something that I could recognize as really good. It was just a bit slow sometimes. I feel like Martin Scorsese gangster films is just "Godfather" but just a bit more condensed, a bit more snappy, you know? I mean, I mean, yeah. - Martin Scorsese did "The Departed?" - Yeah, he did "Departed" as well. - And that's probably one of my favorite. - That's a fantastic film. I mean, again, everything he's made, like "Wolf of Wall Street" as well was fantastic. - Martin Scorsese is just- - He's just a really, really good filmmaker. - Consistent. - "Raging Bull" as well was another one. - Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. - Basically every movie you can think of that has Robert De Niro in it, probably a Scorsese film. - Honestly Robert De Niro and Joe Pesci is just like one of the best duos. Like, you see them together and you know it's gonna be a banger film. - The part that killed me though was like, I remember, 'cause I was telling Aki about this, the "Goodfellas" movie, 'cause she'd never seen it before, and she was like, "Who's in it?" And I was like, "Oh, you know, Robert De Niro and like Joe Pesci." She was like, "Yeah, I know." And then I was like, "Oh, and Ray Liotta is in it as well." And she's like, "Oh yeah, I know that guy from 'Bee Movie.'" (everyone laughs) - How does she know that? - 'Cause she loves "Bee Movie!" And I'm like, "You're dead to me." (everyone laughs) - Oh, that poor man. - Ray Liotta's legacy is literally "Goodfellas" and "Bee Movie." - And "Bee Movie." (everyone laughs) - 'Cause I deadass can't think of another Ray Liotta movie. I'm sure he's been in a bunch of other movies. - I know I've seen him in other things. I just can't think of it off the top of my head. - But I mean like I don't really have to explain "Pulp Fiction." It's like one of the most cult classic fucking- - I like cinema. - It's like, I swear to God, it was like either, if you want to look like you have a personality in university, you put a Quentin Tarantino poster on your wall. - It's either a "Pulp Fiction" poster or a "Reservoir Dogs" poster. - I put a Tarantino film on my list, so I guess we can debate it when we get to that. Which one is the- - I mean, I've seen everything by Tarantino. He's like one of my favorite directors, but I still think to this day, "Pulp Fiction" is, in my personal opinion, is my favorite. It's really close between "Pulp Fiction" and "Reservoir Dogs." - I still put "Reservoir Dogs." - I'll save my points for mine. - We'll save that debate. And then "Apocalypse Now" is my favorite war film. - What's the plot of "Apocalypse Now?" - What's it even about? - So, "Apocalypse Now" is based on the Vietnam War. - Yeah, that's all I know about it. - With like basically the, it's told from the American side where like American troops are told, so Martin Sheen is the main character, and he is like set on a mission to go and pick up a soldier from like, he's like a vet. - Who's the director? - Francis Ford Coppola. - It's the same person who made "Godfather." - Oh. - So, Francis Ford Coppola, like this is like one of his most famous films, I think. Did you know that Francis Ford Coppola is actually the uncle to Nicholas Cage? - What? - Yeah, random fact I found out the other day. But anyway, so basically it's set where like Martin Sheen's character's team has to go into the Vietnam forest to go and look for this like vet who holds a lot of information about the Vietnam War. Basically he's kind of gone insane and is living in the Vietnam like- - 'Cause it's Marlon Brando, right? - Marlon Brando. Basically, it's, yeah. So, Marlon Brando's character is this like Viet like soldier vet who like holds a lot of information and like he needs to be brought back to the US army. Basically Martin Sheen's character goes in, tries to fight off all the Vietcong and, you know, tries to get him back basically. But as Martin Sheen's character is going through all of these like life and death situations, stuff like that, he too also slowly starts to lose his mind. And then eventually, and then, you know, that poster there is pretty much- - Fucking awesome poster. - Yeah, pretty much sums up. Like, that scene where he like comes out of the pool as there's like fighting happening is one of the coolest fucking scenes in cinema. - I wanna watch that. That sounds cool. - Marlon Brando is like fantastic, Martin Sheen is- - Is it a thinky movie? - How much do I have to think during this movie? - Well, okay, so "Apocalypse Now" has like a director's cut called "Apocalypse Now Redux," which is like three and a half hours long. - How long is the original? - Three hours. - Oh. - Yeah. So, it's still a long movie. - Because here's the thing about "Apocalypse Now" 'cause everything you described I already kind of knew about it. 'Cause I knew like the basic plot description and everything like that. What makes it good? - Okay, so in my opinion what makes it really good is just the, well, first of all, it's like, the music choice in that movie is fucking brilliant. It's like everything I fucking love. Like, in my opinion, "Apocalypse Now" still has one of the greatest opening scenes of any movie. - Iconic, iconic. - Very iconic. But I don't know. It's also just like, again, it's like it takes that like kind of war element and weirdly enough, it's a Vietnam War film that doesn't really have a whole lot of fighting. Like, really the most amount of like fighting between the US army and Vietnam really happens in like the first like maybe 20 minutes. And then the rest of the movie is literally just you're inside the mind of Martin Sheen's character as he's like slowly venturing closer and closer to his target and he's slowly like losing his mind as a result of war. And it's like a very, like, I don't know. It's like a really weird like psychological twist on a war movie that you don't really, 'cause when you think of a war movie, you think of like "Saving Private Ryan," where like, yeah, there's obviously a lot of like, you know, soldiers getting fucked up in the war scenes. But like there's also a lot of like fighting scenes. Like, gun fighting scenes or whatever the fuck it is. Whereas "Apocalypse Now" doesn't really have a whole lot of that. It's like, it's almost like a psychological horror set during the Vietnam War. And I think that's what makes, personally that's what makes it really interesting to me. - 'Cause the thing is I think I know more about "Apocalypse Now" than actually seeing the movie itself. 'Cause I know like, I think this has like a really interesting story behind how it was made because like I think, the director himself I think almost went bankrupt making this movie or something like that. Because he had to like convince the studio that he owns or something to like lend him the money to make this movie. And he was out there for like months and months shooting this movie and it almost wasn't made. And I think like Marlon Brando just refused to read the script. - Yeah, Marlon Brando refused to remember his lines. - He's been notorious for that. - But this was the first movie where he started to become like this. And then "The Godfather" I think happened after "Apocalypse Now" which like then, or was it the other way around? - I think it was the other way around. - It might've been the other way around. But basically, yeah, Marlon Brando doesn't appear in this movie until maybe about two and a half hours in. - I think like most of his lines are just like ad-libbed because he just refused to remember his lines. I'm just like, how does that work? How does that work? - I don't think I've ever seen any of the movies that he's in, but I know that he's like notorious for being awful to work with. - Yeah, yeah. I mean, you know, like during his prime obviously he was a fantastic, and you know, he's still a fantastic actor in this movie as well, but it's like, it's very clear that he's not like at his peak. But I feel like Martin Sheen's performance in this movie is just so God damn good that like he does such an amazing job of like really like progressively showing someone going insane. I don't know. My opinion, fantastic movie. - I remember, I think he was on Joe Rogan I think... - Martin Sheen? - No, no, no, no, no. Robert Downey Jr. Was on it and he was talking about that sometimes he didn't remember lines. I think when he did... Which I think "Sherlock" he remembered all his lines. But other movies he was just like, "Put an earpiece in. "Just feed me my lines." - Honestly, especially when he's like Iron Man, he's just acting Robert Downey Jr. - He was saying, you know, some films don't require me to get that deep into their character so there's no point in spending all this time learning the lines. But like, I think for like "Sherlock," it was like quite difficult, some of the lines in the way that he was doing it so he wanted to learn it. He was just like, "Yeah, it depends on the movie." But the way he made it sound made it seem like, oh, that makes sense. Then when you hear about like the third party accounts of Marlon Brando, it's like, oh my God, this sounds like fucking hell. - Yeah, right. And I bet like, you know, 'cause there's a lot of big actors in this, like Harrison Ford's in this movie as well. - This before he's angry at everything? - This is before he's angry. (everyone laughs) Yeah, but like, I don't know. Just really, really good movie in my opinion. And then- - "The King's Speech?" - I was surprised. That came out of nowhere 'cause I've never- - What, "King's Speech?" - I've never heard Joey mention this film ever. - Okay, so to be fair, this is probably the most recent film I watched that really made a massive impact on me 'cause- - Is it 'cause Aki's obsessed with the Royal family? - No, it's because Aki's obsessed with biopics. - Ah. - So before I met Aki, I never really cared to watch a lot of like biopics. Biopics are like movies based off of real people's lives essentially. And so I watched a shitload of biopics with Aki. So, like "Imitation Game" was another one I was thinking of putting here. Like, "Theory of Everything" is another great movie. But I don't know, something about "King's Speech," I mean, firstly, I fucking love Geoffrey Rush. He's like one of my favorite actors. Like, everything that he had, and he does such a fucking good job in this movie as well. And I don't know, it's just like, it's a really simple movie, but it's just the acting in this is just so God damn believable. It's just so good. - I've never actually watched it. But I also, when I was growing up my best mate for like my whole childhood had like a really bad stutter. So I always had to order for him at things and everything. I don't know, this movie came out and I think it was a big deal. - I think it won best picture at the Oscars. - Yeah, it did. I mean, like, the only reason I knew a lot about stuttering was, again, my best mate had it and had to go to a bunch of like therapy and stuff to try and get it. 'Cause he was like, you know, like even like at like 16, 17, 18 couldn't like, you know, order at places. And so I just got used to doing it. And then yeah, it was really interesting 'cause I think in the movie they kind of like gloss over it. But like in real life, the way that you like you can solve it, there's like so many different methods. My mate had to wear like a belt, like a big belt around his chest to make his breathing different so that he wouldn't stutter. - Oh wow. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - I mean, the movie actually does go through like all the actual steps that- - Okay, I haven't seen it so I don't know. - That the king actually had to go through and stuff like that. And like, I don't know. It's really interesting as well. And it's just cool to think that like a lot of this stuff actually happened in real life. At the end, like King George? What's his name? - I can't remember. - I don't know, whatever the king's name was, like actually got over his stutter in real life as a result of this dude who just, you know, solved it. And I don't know, it's just, like, it's very like, because you like meticulously watch through like every single step and every failure of the king trying to get over his stutter, it's just like the ending speech is just really powerful and like really rewarding being like, "Fuck yeah, dude, you nailed that shit. "My man, let's go!" - I mean, I saw it a while ago and I just remember it was a good movie. - I think this movie got me into biopics. - [Garnt] Oh, okay. - I was like, okay, you know what? Biopics might be kinda cool. - I'm glad you guys didn't put any like documentaries or anything. I was like, we have to save that for another time. - Oh yeah. - We'll save that for another. - Yeah, we'll save that for another time. - Connor would do like a fucking 10 by 10. - I'll bring a 100 by 100 for you, Garnt. - Can I just do like a one by one? It's just "Supersize Me." (everyone laughs) And then obviously "Bruce Almighty" we're talking about like, who hasn't seen "Bruce Almighty?" - It's like Morgan Freeman as God. I still think of Morgan Freeman as God. Just because of "Bruce Almighty." - It's like the most 2000s film ever. - It is like the quintessential Jim Carrey movie. - When did it come out? Might've come out in 90s. But I think of this like encapsulates the feeling of the 2000s. - Exactly, like everyone in it is amazing. It's still funny to this day. - [Ashley] '03. - '03, God damn. - Because of this movie, if I die and I don't see Morgan Freeman at the pearly gates. I'll just want to refund on life. - I'll be like, "Take me to hell." (everyone laughs) - "I specifically died with the expectation "that Morgan Freeman would be here waiting." - And then what's another obvious one. I mean, "Austin Powers Goldmember." - Before we get to these ones, explain the Japanese films. - The Japanese ones, okay. - Explain the Nihongos. - [Joey] Wait, which one do you want to hear about? - [Connor] First one, the top one. - [Joey] The top one, okay. So "Rashomon," so this was during a time, this was during like a very, I guess pretentious period of my high school life, where I was like, I want to watch a lot of really old films. - Okay. - Oh gosh. - So "Rashomon" is one, it's done by this guy called Akira Kurosawa. - Oh, it's an Akira Kurosawa. - Yeah, it's an Akira Kurosawa film who's known as like one of the greatest film directors of all time. - Hello, I'm a film buff. (everyone laughs) Mention one name. Hello, I'm a film buff. - I'm a pretentious film buff. So I sat down and watched every Akira Kurosawa film and "Rashomon" is one of them. And it's essentially, it's really hard to kind of explain. But basically I think this movie was made in like 1950, I think. Black and white film. But basically it revolves around this like one murder case that happens in like Edo period Japan, and the same I guess murder is told from different perspectives and different characters. So like, it kind of plays around, I don't know if it was the first movie to ever do it, but it kind of plays around with the whole like unreliable narrator like logic that a lot of movies use now. And it's just like, I don't know, the cinematography in it is like, it's hard to believe this movie was made 70 years ago. - Yeah, I mean, that's why every fucking big director and big film buff still says his name. - Akira Kurosawa is your favorite director's favorite director. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, basically. - And like, I feel "Rashomon" was one of those movies that like took everything that Akira Kurosawa was like really good at in terms of filmmaking, and just like crushed it into like an hour 30 minute like solid movie. And like, Mifune Toshiro is like the guy in the poster who's in like basically every fucking Akira Kurosawa movie. But like, he's one of my favorite Japanese actors just because like, I don't know. He kinda, you know, that like weird stigma of Japanese acting where it's like way over the top and like really unrealistic? - We've talked about it. - Which we talked about. Like, Mifune Toshiro in my opinion like kind of took that and almost made it his own. 'Cause like every Mifune Toshiro character is like so over-exaggerated in terms of like emotion and like movement and stuff like that. Like, I'd be very surprised if he didn't do like theater training and shit like that. But like, I don't know, it's over-exaggerated but it's still like believable, if that makes sense. And it like, it becomes really like kind of, I don't know what the right word for it is. I know I sound very pretentious right now, but it's a real- - Go ahead, Joey. - But like in my opinion, like there's lots of really good Akira Kurosawa movies. - I think the only one I've seen is "Seven Samurai." - "Seven Samurai." - The classic. - That's a classic. - Is that the one where that like fight scene goes on for so God damn long? - That might be. I mean, there's a lot of like- - That was a really weird. - There's a lot of fight scenes in Akira Kurosawa movies. - "Seven Samurai," did it have a remake? - There was a western remake. - There was a western remake, also "The Magnificent Seven" is the Western version of that film, which is also a classic. - I think maybe I watched, what's it called, "13 Assassins," That's a remake right of... - I don't know, actually. - [Ashley] That is a different. - That's a different story, is it? - Yeah, yeah. - Is there a really, really long fight in "Seven Samurai?" - I don't know about "Seven Samurai," but like the one that I can think of that has a really long flight is probably "Ran." - You've probably seen "Seven Samurai" if you've gone through, if you went through the phase of going through the IMDb top 250. - You've probably seen about five different Akira Kurosawa- - I feel like I watched a movie called "Seven Samurai" that was in black and white, and there was a fight scene that was like two hours long. And I was just like sitting there like, "When is it gonna end?" - I don't know about, I don't think "Seven Samurai" was even two hours long. - No, it was. It was like three and a half hours long. - I don't remember. - Is there a long fight scene in "Seven Samurai?" (everyone laughs) - That was just a very long movie in general. - Can you Google it? Like long fight scene- - I mean, it's probably the film you're thinking of. - I just wanna know if I watched it. - You've probably seen it. It's a classic. Like, it's definitely on the IMDb, like there's probably about five Akira Kurosawa films if you go through the IMDb. - No, it's actually only one. It's only "Seven Samurai," I was about to say. - Big sad, big sad. - Because that's the only one that's on the IMDb top 250. So, that's the only one that most people have only seen. Even though he has like such a wealth of work. - Yeah, I mean, "Ran" was I think his first color film and that was also fucking fantastic. I think the stigma is that a lot of Akira Kurosawa films are like based around like samurai and shit like that. When like later on in his career, he did a lot of like kind of rooted more in like modern day stuff. There's another film that I thought about putting up there called "Ikiru" which means to live. And it's essentially this like kind of coming of age story of this old man who realizes that he's like about to die and basically like, you know, the movie "The Bucket List" with fucking Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson. I feel that completely ripped off of "Ikiru" because it's almost like, 'cause the concept is exactly the same. It's like an old guy wanting to like kind of rediscover his life and like really like give meaning to his life on his death bed. But like told in like a really like cool, artistic Akira Kurosawa-esque way. Yeah, I don't know. - I mean, he's a legend for a reason especially in the film industry. - If you're a movie buff, please watch Akira Kurosawa. - What's this? I've never... - Okay, "Kamera o Tomeru na" is a, there's this- - Like a zombie movie, right? - Yeah, so basically it's this movie, have you seen it? Yeah. Okay, I was not expecting anything out of this movie. So I actually watched this film- - When did it come out? (Joey sighs) - Quite, quite recently. Like, a couple of years ago. So, I thought it was just gonna be like, okay, so the reason why I think this movie is genius is the way that it was marketed. So the way that it's marketed, you look at this poster and you think, "Oh, it's a zombie film. "Like, a B grade zombie film kind of thing." It's completely not. It basically takes the zombie film thing and turns it super fucking meta. So basically what it is, it's like, I don't want to give too much away, but basically the movie opens with this 15, 20 minute one cut zombie film. Like, there's no cuts in it whatsoever. And then you think, oh, the credit's roll and that's it. But then what happens is it goes back, and it shows you how that one cut movie is made but told in a fictional way. It's really difficult, it's really fucking meta. It's basically- - Ooh, that sounds cool. - It's basically a movie on, and there's like all sorts of like weird, like it's actually a comedy. There's also like there's all these like weird comedic shenanigans that happen behind the scenes of them shooting that one shot 20 minutes zombie film. So, the movie is about the making of that movie. - That honestly sounds like it's right up my alley. - Yeah, I think you'd love it. - I'm just like, this is, that's- - Garnt wants to stop recording right now. - I'll make a fucking video on this. - I was not expecting this movie to be good at all, but it was, one, it's really, really funny. And two, again, like the whole meta aesthetic of it, I was like, whoa I've never. And it gets even more meta because during the credit scenes, then there's a behind the scenes camera of that camera. So, it's like a movie within a movie within a movie. And it's like, I love it. I just love like the whole meta aesthetic of it. But like I put this on there because like for one, I barely know anyone who's seen it. - I've never even heard of it until now. - I guess people will now. - [Ashley] The English title is "One Cut of the Dead." - "One Cut of the Dead." That sounds so cliche though. - Yeah, but that's exactly it. Like, it plays to the strengths of zombie film cliches and just completely flips it on his head and just turns it into like this wacky slapstick comedy. - That sounds cool. - Yeah, it's really, really cool. - It sounds like an episode of "Haruhi" or something, right? - Honestly. It's like if "Endless Eight" was good. - [Ashley] Sorry, it came out in 2017. I forgot. - 2017. - 2017, yeah. - I feel like the last zombie movie that I watched that I really fucking enjoyed was "Train to Busan." - Oh, that's good. - I haven't watched "Train to Busan." - That's a fantastic movie. - Fucking so good. Like, I can't explain why it's really good 'cause it's just like a very, like, it has like the same beats as just a standard zombie movie, but it's just a really good movie. - Just a solid movie. - It is a solid movie. Even if like, you think you're bored of the zombie genre, like- - I think I am. - 'Cause I thought I was. - Okay, if you're bored of the zombie genre, you need to watch that. - And then I got to watch "Train to Busan." And then I gotta watch other shit too. Fuck. - No, but like "One Cut of the Dead," that was the title, right? "One Cut of the Dead," like, yeah. Like, I feel, if there's any movie I can recommend on my three by three, it's probably that one just because it's like- - I like how we both put it in the bottom right as well. The bottom left, sorry. - Like, it completely destroys what you think about movies in a way that's like really fun. And also like, just again, it's just meta as fuck. If you love that whole meta thing, like you'd love that film. And then I put "Gladiator" on there just 'cause it's- - I probably would put "Gladiator" too. It's a good film. - It's fantastic. - Yeah, it's just good. - It's just very good. - It's just good. Like, there's no complaint. Like, I don't have any like special memories with the movie. I just think it's really good. - Just a clean story. - I like history. - It's not even history, right? - I like tournament arcs. (everyone laughs) - Yeah, that's basically it, right? - "Gladiator" is just a tournament arc. - I like Russell Crowe, he's funny. - Yeah, Russell Crowe is a great actor. - I just realized, yeah, this is basically just a fucking shonen anime set in Rome, and it's just condensed down into a movie. - Dude, tournament arc, revenge story. - [Garnt] Yeah! - It's everything I want. Russell Crowe. It's everything I want. - And I feel like it's this, and I was like really close to putting "300" on mine as well. - Actually I think I like "300" more. - I feel like "Gladiator" is the better film, but I think "300" made more of an impression. - "300" is the more entertaining variety. - Yeah, yeah. Before like Zack Snyder thought like, before Zack Snyder thought, "I could put slow mo in everything. "What if I just use it for everything?" - "300" is so good. - I'm not gonna lie, man, the slow motion fight scene in "300" still fucking slap to this day. - I still think it's Zack Snyder's best film to this day. - I 100% agree. - Like, he just peeked with that and he was just like, "How do I recapture this? "How do I do it?" - "Let me do the same thing with all my other films." - It's just such a fun film. - It is. It's such a quotable, just fun, like bloody, gory film. - It's such a cool story too. - It's just like- - It's based off real life. Fucking awesome. - As much as we know. - I mean, somewhat. - You cannot like watch "300" and not just come out just hyped as fuck. Just wanting to fucking punch someone. - The funniest thing about "300" in my opinion is just how they made Xerxes into this like nine foot tall like brick shit house. When I think in real life, Xerxes was like four feet tall. Like, he was actually a midget. And Zack Snyder was like, "No, no. "Let's get the biggest Chad in the movie film industry "and just they can play Xerxes." - 'Cause I think, have you been in a movie theater where they've literally just gasped? - [Joey] Yeah, yeah, yeah. - 'Cause like "300" is the only experience I've had in a movie theater where like the whole fucking movie theater just gasped and that was the scene, that was like the very final scene where he throws the spear. - Oh yeah, yeah. - That was such a good scene. God, that's such a good movie! - God, I want to watch "300" again. - It's such a good film. - It's such a good movie. - You can't not be happy watching that film. So fucking good. - Such a quotable movie. I mean, like all of these films like, there's at least one quote I can easily, one or two quotes I can talk. - Let's get into this. - "Austin Powers." - Why? - "Goldmember" though. It's "Goldmember." - What's up with that? - I don't know, I think it's the best "Austin Powers" movie. - I don't really like "Austin Powers." - You don't like "Austin Powers?" I rewatched "Goldmember" again just because like one of my friends came over to my house and was like, "I feel like watching 'Goldmember.'" And I was like, "I haven't seen that movie in like 10 years, "but let's do it." - Is that movie still funny now? I feel like it's not funny anymore. - I think it's still funny. - You think it's funny anymore? - I didn't find it funny when it first came out, I'll be honest. - Really? - Yeah. I don't know, it's a... - Again, it's like that whole, like, it's the meta thing. It's like the fact that Austin Powers as a character is so- - It's just like James Bond, right? - It's just so aware of what he is that like, it's the potty humor poopoo peepee humor. (everyone laughs) It really is. - It kind of is. - I like that humor. I don't know why I didn't like this movie. I've seen, sorry, the "Austin Powers" series, I think I've seen all of them and I just thought like, it's all right. - It's, I don't know, it's like, for me, it's just like comfort food to just go back to. It's just like, it's either that or "Bruce Almighty" in terms of comedy films where I'm just like, "Yeah, this is still funny." - I mean, I think it's just like the peepee poopoo humor- - Yeah, I feel like- - It was a bit too in your face. - Yeah, when I think of "Austin Powers," I just feel like, I like recoil in disgust a little bit. - I think you know what it is- - There's so many gross scenes in that film. - You know what it is about "Goldmember" in particular, I think it's like the same concept as like, when you see like, you know, a troll face comic on Twitter where it's like it's so not funny that it's just funny. - It's just ancient memes put into a movie. - This is the second one? - This the third one. - Third one. The one with Fat Bastard. - Yeah, this is the last one. - Oh God. - And like Goldmember is also played by Mike Myers where he's like the fucking Dutch guys, like, "I love gold!" Like, that character. It's like, it's so dumb, that it's like, it's funny. - I put it in like the same category as "Scary Movie" and just, remember "Scary Movie?" - See, I didn't find "Scary Movie" funny at all. - I didn't find it funny at all. - I think 13-year-old me loved "Scary Movie." And then when I watched it again, I was like, oh. - It's the same kind of like hehe peepee poopoo, this is a parody kind of humor. And I just like, I never found that too funny. I mean, I love peepee poopoo humor jokes, but it was just a bit too in your face. Yeah, I don't know. - Yeah, maybe. I swear I probably got a few laughs out of it here and there but I don't know, maybe. I don't know why. - I think I'm kind of just like numb to comedy movies now just because the like past five years of comedy movies have just all been really fucking mediocre in my opinion. - Haven't had many good comedy movies in a while. - I'm trying to think of like the last good comedy movie, and like, I genuinely- - "40-Year-Old Virgin." - I genuinely think it might be "Goldmember." Like, I deadass can't think of comedy movie that came out after this that was like nearly as fun. - Pretty sure "Superbad" came after this, right? - As a white guy, I'm obliged to say "Stepbrothers" even though I don't really feel that way. - See, okay. Hot take, since we're all doing hot takes on movies. I don't think I've ever laughed at a Will Ferrell movie. - No, I mean- - There isn't a single Will Ferrell movie- - I don't actually think "Stepbrothers" is very good, I was just joking. - There's one scene in "Stepbrothers" that I was like, ha. - When I was like 15 'cause I think that movie just came out, 15, 16. - I'm gonna check Will Ferrell's entire filmography to see if I actually agree with that. - Because like "Stepbrothers" was like okay. I thought "Blades of Glory" was not funny at all. - They were just like, they were the most six to seven out of 10 films. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - What's his most... - Okay, "Anchorman." - "Anchorman" is just like just driven to the fucking ground now. - I don't know if that's just like had the "Borat" phase- - Oh, "Elf" was pretty good. I like "Elf." - "Elf" is overrated as fuck. - I think "Elf" is overrated. - [Connor] I think "Elf" is fun. - The thing that I don't understand about "Elf" is that like it gained like a cult classic following after like all this time of being ignored. - I like "Talladega Nights." I actually like "Talladega Nights." 'Cause it has Sasha Baron Cohen in it. - I'm just looking at this and I'm just like, it's okay. Everything's okay. Like, "Anchorman," I feel like I've watched "Anchorman" passed when like it was already memed to death. And I feel like the best part of "Anchorman" was Steve Carell. - [Joey] Oh yeah. - Why are late night shows listed as filmography? - I don't know. Yeah, I guess I just don't find Will Ferrell that funny I guess. - "The Lego Movie" is pretty good. He's in that. - What? - "Lego Movie." Oh, I like- - Oh no, no, no. "21 Jump Street," that was the last great comedy movie. - Yeah, "21 Jump Street." - Come on, come on, come on, come on. - See, I didn't watch it. - That's actually really good. - That was the last great comedy movie. - 'Cause I watched the original "21 Jump Street." - No, the new one's really good. - The one with, what's his face? - Ice Cube and... - No, no, no. The one with, like the really, really old one with... Oh, fuck. Was it "21 Jump Street?" I might be thinking of something else. The one with Ice Cube though was okay. - Who was the main character in that? - It's Channing Tatum. - Channing Tatum. Channing Tatum and... - Jonah Hill. Jonah Hill is just an amazing actor. - Oh yeah, but like, I prefer Jonah hill in like the more serious movies though. - Jonah Hill is so good now. - As much as I love Jim Carrey in "Bruce Almighty" and like all the Jim Carrey like classic comedy like "Mask" and "The Grinch" and all that. I fucking love Jim Carrey in all the serious roles. - Yeah, his serious roles are really good. - The other one I was thinking like, I'll put "Bruce Almighty" there just 'cause it's like the comedy movie I can go back to. It's like classic. But like if I didn't put "Bruce Almighty" or any Jim Carrey comedy, I would've put, do you know "The Number 23?" - Oh yeah, yeah. - That's like really like kind of neo noire, like the most serious- - You like that one? - I kind of liked it. (everyone laughs) I kinda liked it. It's like that one or like "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind." - That was good. - That one's good. And then another one I saw was- - "Truman Show" is my favorite Jim Carrey movie. Such a fucking good movie. - Yeah, "Truman Show" is good. Yeah, I don't know something about "The Number 23" was like, it was so fucking edgy that it just became entertaining again. You know what I mean? Where like, it's like a point of edgy-ness where it's like, it just all comes back around- - Wasn't that like destroyed by critics for like being pretentious? - It was destroyed. Yeah, yeah. I mean, look, have you seen my three by three? It's pretentious as fuck. - Joey's like, "Ah, yes, I don't understand. "Perfect." - I think the fact that I put in a Akira Kurosawa film goes to show that I'm a pretty fucking pretentious movie critic. - Wow. - What'd you guys think of, while we're on the topic of comedy movies, Seth Rogen films, how do we feel about that? - Kind of the same thing I feel about Will Ferrell movies. - What was... - I'm just like- - "Pineapple Express" is okay. - It's like ha ha, he smokes weed. - I feel like, if it's not like purely just Seth Rogen being a stoner, then it's a pretty funny film. - I like Seth Rogen as a person. (everyone laughs) I like the stoner actor Seth Rogen, but like Seth Rogen in films, I'm just kinda just like, eh. - I like his movies. You just turn your brain off and it's an easy movie. You know, sometimes it's just hard movies to watch. - I can't even think of like a Seth Rogen movie. - Like, the Akira Kurosawa films are not the kind of thing I can just put on.. - Oh, no, no, no, of course not. - It's like, you know you always get just a film you can watch with Seth Rogen. - Actually, do you wanna know how fucking pretentious I am as a film critic? Instead of "Goldmember," I was gonna put "2001: A Space Odyssey." (everyone laughs) - I would have actually been like, "Actually fuck off." (everyone laughs) "Actually get the fuck out." - Joey, who are you trying to please? Joey, who are you trying to please? - I'm trying to please myself, all right? - One thing I'm surprised that's not on here is "Trainspotting." 'Cause you've talked about that a bunch. - Fuck. You know what, I completely forgot about that. (everyone laughs) Actually, yeah, can we get rid of "Goldmember" and put "Trainspotting?" - No, no, no, it's already done. - Please? Do me a solid. No, he did it with the fucking gaming three by three. I can do it with the movie. Okay. Munon or whoever's editing, get rid of "Goldmember." - [Garnt] This is a shit movie anyway. - [Joey] Get rid of "Goldmember," put "Trainspotting" on it. "Trainspotting" is fucking fantastic. - Someone criticized me because I said, when someone, they asked me what my favorite video game or whatever was, I said different from what I put on my three by three. We make our three by threes in like 10 minutes. It's not like the end all of our actual. - Exactly, exactly. - We're just trying to make some interesting. Yeah, they're fine. - I'm thinking, oh, I've really enjoyed "This is the End," a Seth Rogen film. - "50/50" was really good. - Oh, "50/50" was great. - I haven't seen any of these. (Garnt laughs) - They're ones where like the joke isn't just him being a stoner. And that's why I feel like- - Wait, is that even possible? - Yeah, yeah. Occasionally he does. - 'Cause I think it with Seth Rogen, like, I watched one film with Seth Rogen in it and I was like- - Was it "Pineapple Express?" - It might've been. And I was like, I 100% understand this actor and this character now. Probably like that in every other movie. - Yeah. "Pineapple Express" is one of those movies- - Oh my God, fucking, can I talk about "Trainspotting." - Okay, okay, sorry, sorry. - It's so good! Okay, have you guys seen it? - Of course I have. - I have not. - You haven't seen it? Okay. So, "Trainspotting" is this like, oh God, how the fuck do you explain "Trainspotting?" - I know that it's not about spotting trains. - It is not about spotting trains. - So, the term trainspotting comes from heroin addicts where they try to inject the heroin into their veins, so they have to spot the veins and that is referred to as trainspotting. - So basically it's a drug film set in Scotland. Main guy is Ewan McGregor who he is in his natural habitat. He's in his natural accent, so you know it's gonna be good. Very, very young Ewan McGregor. I think this is before "Star Wars." - I think the one scene I remember from "Trainspotting" apart from the baby scene was just- - The toilet scene. - Yeah, just Ewan McGregor emerges from a toilet. - Yeah, I've heard about this. I've heard of the scenes in "Trainspotting." - So very famous scene is where Ewan McGregor needs to go, you know, do a hit, and he's at a pub and he goes into the closest, no, no, that's right. No, he gets the runs I think from something. And he runs into a pub and goes into probably the most disgusting looking toilet imaginable. - Just UK toilets. - It's like actually foul. And he drops his drugs into the toilet. And because he's a desperate junkie, and he took a shot beforehand, he starts hallucinating as he reaches into the toilet and just goes into the toilet and starts swimming inside the toilet. Emerges out of the toilet with the drugs in his hand. It's a very, very bizarre movie. But I (laughs) I showed "Trainspotting" to Aki, and she stopped it after five minutes and she's like, "Can we put subtitles on? "'Cause I can't understand what the fuck they're saying." To be fair, it's a very heavy Scottish accent. Like, there were some scenes where even I'm like, "Oh, I didn't quite catch what he just fucking said there." So, like Americans, probably best to put subtitles on. - Being from the UK is like your English level is OP. You can understand any form of English. - Any accent. - The only reason why I understand "Trainspotting" is because I like watched it like over 10 times. So, I just remember what they say. But yeah, I don't know, it's just like, it's very brutal film, but also it's like, again, like the music choices- - [Connor] Sounds good. - With movies if it's got great music choice, I'm all for it. Same with my anime. If the OST is good, it's a great movie. - I'd say if there's like two, like drug like films, kind of like, how do I describe this? - Is that a category? Drug movie. - Yeah, drug movies. - Drug movie. 'Cause like I don't really know how to describe "Trainspotting." It's just a movie about a bunch of characters and- - I'm already sold on it to be fair. - Their lives revolve around drugs. And like "Trainspotting" is one of them. And the other one is "Requiem for a Dream," which is not a film I think like people should watch to enjoy. But I think people should just watch it at least once to like realize, wow, I just never want to try heroin. That's just a bad thing. - Well, I mean, "Trainspotting" was definitely one where I was like, oh, never touching that shit in my life. Fuck that. Fuck that. - You know, I was 50/50 but. (everyone laughs) After watching "Trainspotting," you know... - If you ever have a friend who's like, "Maybe I might try heroin," just show them "Trainspotting," they'll probably be like, "Nope, never doing that." - Or "Requiem for a Dream." - Or "Requiem for a Dream" as well. - Oh, I think I just got full on fucking depression for a week after watching that film. - I mean, "Trainspotting" is definitely another film that is not watched for entertainment sake. Probably more entertaining than "Requiem for a Dream." - I would like to say like, "Trainspotting" isn't a happy movie, but it's like less bleak than "Requiem for a Dream." - There's a lot of great scenes and it's like, I don't know, it's just, again, the acting's really good and it's just very, it's a very raw film. - "Requiem for a Dream" just sounds like something you'd give an Oscar to based on the title. (everyone laughs) - To be fair there's some great fucking scenes in "Requiem for a Dream." - The title alone you're like, "Fuck, that's awesome." - The thing I can say about "Requiem for a Dream" is that it's just, it's a fucking powerful movie. And it's like, it makes you feel emotions that is not pleasant feeling, but it's fucking powerful as shit. - Speaking of powerful, should we get onto my list? (everyone laughs) - Is it powerful? Are you gonna live up to that expectation? - When you see this three by three, you're gonna think, "Holy shit." - Does it have "Space Jam" on it? 'Cause if not- - It doesn't. - "Rush Hour 2?" Come on. - More powerful than any. - I'm curious to see what your Quentin Tarantino pick is. That's what I'm- - We're gonna have a toilet break now. - Needless to say, it's gonna be powerful. I actually did put "No Country for Old Men." - Oh, wow. - What's interesting was is off-camera- - This is mine, this is mine. - Yes, this one. Off-camera Joey was like, "Put 'No Country for Old Men.'" - Yo. Honestly, I was so close to putting some of these on mine. - [Connor] I knew you were gonna- - [Joey] Oh, okay, okay. - [Garnt] 'Cause I was like, "Maybe someone else is gonna put 'Ip Man.'" But that was so close to coming on mine. - [Connor] This is a powerful list I think, gentlemen. I think you'll agree. - Okay, you know what? The only one that I probably have like a little bit of qualms with is "Tokyo Drift." - No! Absolutely not! This is a masterpiece of cinema. - If we're talking about overrated films, "Tokyo Drift." - It is not overrated. Listen, the main actor, you know- - The entire "Fast and Furious" franchise is overrated. There, I said it. - He's an impeccable character actor, the main actor of "Tokyo Drift." - I don't know if you're being serious or not. - He enveloped like, nothing has mimicked living in Japan quite like "Tokyo Drift." - You're right, you're right. - When I went to school in some, you know- - I love all one Japanese actors in this movie. (everyone laughs) - You know, when I was in school in Japan with my black friend from America... (everyone laughs) - We dreamed of going to Japan one day, and we were like, "What is the closest we can get to it?" - You know, I think- - I wonder if you know. - Every single point of "Tokyo Drift" is a masterclass in filmmaking, frankly. From the very start, you know, in the American high school scene, it's very, very much like how it would still be in America. Naturally I race my cars and I cause a lot of damage and don't get arrested and get exiled, which I don't think is a punishment that you see. You know, a lot of movies, they would just arrest him. And I think he was really genius that they gave exile. - Well, you know, like full speed drifting through a parking lot, which is just, you know, if you've ever been to a parking lot in any country it's just impossible. - I think there's not enough movies that use exile as a good way of conveying the story. Name a movie with exile in it. I'll wait. There we go. - Probably for good reason. - It's a medieval concept that hasn't been introduced in modern films, you know? - Exile. - Exile, he was exiled from Arkansas or something. I don't know where the fuck he was found. - I don't know. - Some hick town. And you know, his accent is just amazing. I love it. I love this guy's accent. So, so much. I love the accent. - I don't think I've ever felt physical pain while watching a movie before until I watched "Tokyo Drift." - I'm gonna be honest, I have not seen a single "Fast and Furious" film. - I've only seen "Tokyo Drift" and I, you know, because I didn't want to be annoyed because we'd already found the best "Fast and Furious" film so why watch another one? - Garnt, I must say, you are not missing out on anything. - No, no, "Tokyo Drift." Have you watched "Tokyo Drift?" - I literally just said five seconds ago, I've not seen- - He's never seen it! - Literally five seconds ago. - I don't count it as a "Fast and Furious" film. - No, I don't count this as "Fast and Furious" film. - It's a cinema experience. It's a totally different- - But somehow worse. - No, it's, if you add up all the IMDb scores of the "Fast and Furious" films, it's still not as high as "Tokyo Drift." (Joey laughs) - Yeah, because it's like zero, zero, zero. (everyone laughs) Zero plus zero is still zero. - "Tokyo Drift" is a great film that is close to my heart in many ways. Not only did it get me into- - Japan? - Donkey Kong because of the DK. - Oh yeah, of course. What's DK stand for? (everyone laughs) - That compelled me to check out Donkey Kong. - The beginning of monkey. (everyone laughs) - Is "Tokyo Drift." - This was actually- - This is the monkey origin story. - You know, it's almost, it's just, there's nothing quite as groundbreaking as this film, quite frankly. - So what's your favorite scene? - I like the scene where he breaks his iPod and then he still manages to sell the iPod broken and then he doesn't check to, he doesn't check the iPod before buying it. I believe this is what happens. And then he purchased the iPod then gets annoyed that it was broken. But he never once thought, "I should check this iPod before buying it." - Classic storytelling. - I thought that was a really intelligent scene because that's how they made conflict through a broken iPod. - What I want to know is how are there so many "Fast and the Furious" films? - Well, this actually saved the "Fast and Furious" franchise. - Did it actually? - No, I don't know. - I think it deadass might've 'cause it's like- - This was the first- - When you hear of someone saying "Fast and Furious-" - I think of "Tokyo Drift." - Yeah, right. Most people I think think of "Tokyo Drift," and I'm like, why? - Like, do the other "Fast and Furious" films even have names? - No, it's like "Fast and Furious 1, 2, 3, 4" - Memes aside, how does such a shit film become so iconic? Like, that's what I want to know. It is terrible by every single metric of the English word. But I love this film to death. - It's like "The Room," right? - It's like "The Room" of "Fast and Furious." (Joey laughs) - "The Room" of "Fast and Furious." - Because it's just got the coolest name. I mean, "Tokyo Drift," right? It's a fucking cool ass name. - Also, legit, I know we spoke about it before, but like it was kind of like a gateway for me to Japan. Like, it- - Was it actually? - It kind of legit got me into Japan in many ways. - I'm sorry. (Garnt laughs) - It's great 'cause then I got to learn actual shit. Also it was the very first DVD I ever owned, was "Tokyo Drift." And it's in a glass cabinet as you can imagine. Vacuum sealed. - Mint condition. - Yeah, mint condition. Had been graded obviously. - I think the first DVD I ever owned was "Shrek." - Well- - Honestly. - Okay, so "Tokyo Drift" is a terrible but amazing movie, and I can watch it and enjoy it because you can just laugh at it now. It's amazing to laugh at. - Oh yeah, of course. - Some of the dialogue that the poor actors have to actually like say is just hilarious. And then it gets just not fun at all towards the end. And then it becomes too serious. - Then it becomes too serious. - So let me ask you one thing. - [Connor] All right. - Why "Shrek 2" over "Shrek 1?" - "Shrek 2" is the best "Shrek." "Shrek 2" is the best. - Really? - It is. - Dude, "Shrek 2" is the best. Bro, "Shrek 2" is the best! - Like, "Shrek" run, set the rules. - Run? What is wrong today with your English? - "Shrek 1" set the rules, and then "Shrek 2" perfected everything. - I'm not gonna go against the fact that "Shrek 2" is a good movie. - "Shrek 2" is the best, bro. Prince Charming is fucking amazing. - I still think "Shrek 1" is better. - "Shrek 1" is just an encapsulated experience that is fantastic. - I think the problem with "Shrek 1" is that no one can watch it seriously anymore because it's been memed to the ends of the earth. Not enough scenes in "Shrek 2" have been memed, and I think that's why. - I actually disagree 'cause I feel like "Shrek" is one of the few franchises where the memes have only like put it into legendary status. I am never going to forget "Shrek" anymore. - Yeah, I can't. - Like, Smash Mouth can like retire because they've already been immortalized through "Shrek" memes. - "Shrek" is an amazing film that you can watch any time. But I think people forget how fucking amazing "Shrek 2" is. "Shrek 2" is- - No, "Shrek 2" is a great film, I don't disagree with that. - Honestly, so much better than "Shrek 1". Watch it. - In my opinion, like, "Shrek 1" just inches past. - "Shrek" is an 8.5 and "Shrek" is a 9.2 in my head, "Shrek 2" sorry, is a 9.5. And "Shrek 1" is a 8.5. - What about "Shrek the Third?" - Every single character they, oh, two. It's not even worth watching. Every single character they introduce in "Shrek 2" is a banger character. They all like help the story so much. And then they build on the one-off characters in "Shrek 1" that you thought were a joke. They bring them back. They're like, hold up, hold up. You know, there's a reason why the Wolf was cross-dressing. Let's find out. - You're gonna see Gingerbread Man and Pinocchio again. - Also they use the soundtrack in very intelligent ways, you know. - They do, they do. - The soundtrack's banging. - That is true, that is true. - The rendition of "I Need a Hero" was like fucking amazing! - So good! - It is an amazing scene. - Puss in Boots is introduced. - I completely forgot that. Puss in Boots wasn't in "Shrek 1," was he? - Yeah, his standalone movie was terrible. But there's a reason why he was so lovable. - It's also amazing to think like how many fucking high profile actors are in "Shrek 2." - Honestly. - Isn't the Fairy Godmother played by Julie Andrews? - I think so. - I think, yeah. - If you want your career made, you're in "Shrek 2." Coincidence that every single "Shrek 2" actor is a god tier actor- - Yeah, Antonio Banderas was the cat, right? - Exactly, man. - Why did Mike Myers do another like fucking "Austin Powers" film when he was in "Shrek?" Why even try? Why, Joey? - I mean, that's because- - This is the best of Mike Myers film. - No, I'm not saying "Austin Powers" is the best Mike Myers film. "Shrek" 100%. - 'Cause Mike Myers has like two good films, and it's "Shrek," one and two. - "Shrek" and "Shrek 2." - "Wayne's World" is overrated. "Shrek 1" and "2" are his only good roles. - I'll agree "Wayne's World" is overrated now. Okay, but let's talk about the Quentin Tarantino choice you put? - Yes. - "Kill Bill." - I think- - Volume one? - Okay, I like volume one. - Really? - I actually- - For number one? - I actually prefer volume one. - Really? - Volume two is rated higher, and it's a crime we didn't get another one. That's a legit crime we didn't get a volume three. - I just think... I think in the entire filmography of Quentin Tarantino films, "Kill Bill" is just one that I just forget. - See, the thing for me is like "Pulp Fiction" isn't even like my top five Quentin Tarantino films. - [Joey] Really? - Yeah, I think that like "Inglourious Basterds," "Django" is better. - "Django" is not better. - "Django" is not better. - "Django" is better. "Django" is better! What do you mean? "Django" is amazing! - I'll agree, "Inglourious Basterds" is up there. "Django" though is not up there. - "Django" and "Inglourious Basterds" are both better than "Pulp Fiction." - No. - And "Kill Bill" is better than "Pulp Fiction." And what else has he done that's better? - What about like "Jackie Brown?" - Look, look, look. Maybe "Django" would have been like one of his best films if not for Jamie Foxx. I feel like Jamie Foxx was so fucking dry. - Do you know who was originally cast? Will Smith. - Will Smith! - If they got Will Smith for that movie, legendary! - Holy shit! - He wouldn't have said half the shit. - Will Smith would have carried that movie. - Yeah. - But because they got Jamie Foxx, Christoph Waltz had to do the fucking- - No, no, exactly. It's Christoph Waltz and Leonardo DiCaprio. - I think Jamie Foxx was great in that movie. - What do you remember after the big scene in the middle? - I think I actually can't remember much. - That's the point! Because- - It's been so long since I've watched. - Because after that it's Jamie Foxx who has to carry the film and he just doesn't. He doesn't. - Jamie Foxx tries when fucking decrepit Samuel L. Jackson walks off. - I was gonna say like, actually like, you know, everyone focusing Christoph Waltz, and he did amazing and so did Leonardo DiCaprio, but like Samuel L. Jackson is like probably one of my favorite things in that film. He is so fucking good at being evil. - He's good, he's good. Don't get me wrong. But it's not the best Samuel L. Jackson role in- - It's because every single fucking role he does is amazing. Like, Samuel L. Jackson kills it in everything. - Yeah, I get that, but like, I think his roll in like "Jackie Brown" was 100 times better. - I just, I don't know. - I had more fun watching like "Jackie Brown' and like even "Kill Bill" over "Django." - I just, I don't think "Pulp Fiction" was that good. - How dare you. (Joey laughs) - Wow. - I think it was fine. There was just like, there was too many scenes where I was actually bored during "Pulp Fiction." - What? - Like, the scene where they're at the restaurant just talking, I was bored out of my mind. - What, do you mean the one at the end? - No, no, the start, the start. Not the diner, the restaurant where they're like, were they having like milkshakes with John Travolta. - Oh, at Jack Rabbits. - Yeah, I can't fucking stand it. - That scene's fucking great. - I just think John Travolta is like not a good actor. I think he's not good. - I mean, I don't know- - What are these takes, dude? - John Travolta is a bad actor. - No, no, no, okay. - John Travolta is very much- - Samuel L. Jackson carries, it's so obvious because when Samuel L. Jackson isn't with John Travolta, John Travolta sucks. - Okay, in my opinion, John- - How many scenes were there without those two together? There wasn't many. It was a duo. - Like one or two, and he was terrible. - I think John Travolta is- - Not terrible but. - John Travolta is one of those actors where like I feel- - Have you seen his recent movies? - No, but that's because, okay, recent John Travolta movies he's clearly like, has just been type casted as the bad guy because of "Pulp Fiction." Because before "Pulp Fiction," John Travolta just did all the "Grease" lightning movies. So he literally went- - Oh yeah, he was in "Grease." - He literally went from this like sing songy, like cool, cool boy guy to suddenly playing as this like badass gangster. And because of the success of "Pulp Fiction," the movie industry was like, "We need a bad guy "who's also like kind of quirky and charming on the surface "but is actually fucked up on the inside. "John Travolta." - I mean, like, "Pulp Fiction" isn't my favorite Tarantino film. - What's your favorite one? - I mean, I put it on. It's "Reservoir Dogs." - Oh. - Like, I still would put like, I really love "Inglourious Basterds." - Yeah. Would you say "Inglourious Basterds" is better than "Pulp Fiction" to you? - I'd say it's about the same. - I think "Inglourious Basterds" is good. It's better than "Pulp Fiction" but for different reasons. - I do agree with you where there are some parts of "Pulp Fiction" that did drag. But when, like, I feel like the highs of "Pulp Fiction" are just they're like the best Tarantino can do. "Kill Bill" is I feel like one of his most different movies. - I love "Kill Bill." - "Kill Bill" is clearly the movie where Tarantino was like, "I like anime by the way." (everyone laughs) - I love it. - "I really like anime. "I really like Japan." - It's so cool. I just love it. Everything about the movie is just so fun. - No, I mean, like Uma Thurman is fucking awesome. - I love Uma Thurman. - I love the scene with, what's her name? Kuriyama Chiaki who did Gogo Yubari with like the chain thing. - That's so good! I love that! - I just love fucking Uma Thurman's janky Japanese when like Gogo Yubari comes out like swinging the chain and then Uma Thurman turns around, she's like, "Gogo danay?" (everyone laughs) That scene fucking kills me every time. - Yeah. I mean, I feel like on an aesthetic level, there's few that are as iconic as "Kill Bill." - It's just such a fucking, and also the restaurant is still like open in Tokyo. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Like, going there and like seeing it and be like, "Fuck." It's so cool. When you go to that restaurant, you're like, "Fuck, how did they make this happen?" - It's definitely like a culturally significant movie. - I mean, for the record, all of Quentin Tarantino movies are fucking amazing. I just feel like "Kill Bill" is like the most different, I feel like, especially in terms of Tarantino movies. Volume two felt way more like a Tarantino movie. - I deadass don't even remember what happens in volume two. - She fucking kills Bill, Joey. (everyone laughs) Joey! - How dare you spoil! - Joey! - I can't believe you spoiled "Kill Bill." - It's literally there in the title. - I've rewatched the first one so many times I've barely watched the second one. I don't know why. - I don't know, it's just like, I've definitely seen "Kill Bill Volume 2" a couple of times. I just don't remember what happened other than the titular thing. - I would say that the only film, I mean, the only scene out of "Kill Bill" that really sticks out to my mind is the one at the end of "Kill Bill Volume 1" which is her against... - Lucy Liu, right? - Lucy Liu. - No, not Lucy Liu. The one with her against like the fucking, what, the name of the gang that she fights? - That's not the end. - The Crazy 88s. - Yeah, that's like in the middle. - No, that's like right before the end. - No, right before the end is when she fights Lucy Liu. - Yeah, that's the ending. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Yeah, so the one, so, she fights the Crazy 88 before she fights Lucy Liu. To me, that is like the iconic scene of the "Kill Bill" franchise. - It's fucking awesome. - But I felt like overall, I felt like the second film was just a little bit better. - I have to rewatch it honestly. - I have to, I think- - Why is this your favorite Tarantino movie then? - I don't know. Again, I think it's just how unique it is and how stylized. Like, you don't really get a movie like it any more. I don't know. - Yeah, definitely not anymore. - It's just such a good movie. - I feel this is the only successful live-action anime adaptation. You know what I mean? Where it's like, this feels like it was based off of anime. - It had actual fucking anime in it. - Oh yeah, it's got a production IG. That's fucking badass. - That scene was dope. - The whole lore when they build it up. Oh my God, it's just so fucking cool. I love everything about that film. It's just like him just like saying, "Hey guys, I'm a weeb." And like you said, but in a good way, in a way that you're like, okay. - It's definitely done from like a place of like respect. - It's just, like, you watch this and you just feel like this is just fun. This is just a director having fucking fun. - It's definitely the most like turn your brain off type of Tarantino film. - It's the best kind. - [Joey] No, absolutely. - Because you don't need to turn your brain off to appreciate this movie. But at the same time, it follows that kind of same style where you don't have to think much, but everything about this just has impact. - Yeah, absolutely. - Impact. - I definitely agree "Kill Bill' is good. I just want to rewatch it now. It's been awhile. - What do you wanna talk about next, boys? - Honestly, honestly, I know you put this on because you thought that I was gonna like, just fucking destroy you for it, but I'm glad someone put an Adam Sandler movie on here. - Listen, "Click," I love "Click." - Okay, 100% easily the best Adam Sandler film. - Okay, okay. Well, a film made by Adam, this is made by him, right? - I think so, yeah. - Dude, "Click" is so good. - "Click" is a really good movie. - I still cry at the end of "Click" every single God damn time. - Actually, I was like- - "Family comes first." (everyone laughs) That's all I can remember. - I was really, really close to putting "50 First Dates" on my three by three. (everyone laughs) - No! No "Click" is actually good. - "Click" is really good. - "Click" is good. - "Click" is one of those movies that gets so much bad rep, but like I actually think it's like, come on, it's pretty fucking- - Adam Sandler has a bad rep. - . Of course, there's some scenes in there you're like, "All right, Adam, come on." But then there's also so many moments you're like, "Holy shit, this is actually like a really good fucking take "on your life and missing out on things." - Especially the second half where it starts to get really serious. I'm just like, oh my God, this is not the direction I was expecting it to go. - It's so good. It shows that like when Adam Sandler wants to fucking act, he brings his fucking A-game. - I was like, "Wow, he can act?" - Again, this is like, why watching "Uncut Gems" is like, all the shit parts of "Click" are like not there, just great fucking acting from Adam Sandler. And like, it's amazing. - I just feel like people forget that I think Adam Sandler actually made good films. I like a lot of- - Just lazy. - I feel like "Click" might be his like last great film or last good film 'cause I remember like he just like fell off a cliff after a certain point but- - Now he just makes, he's openly admitted that he makes movies on, basically if he can go to a vacation on the place, 'cause it's his production company. - What a power move. - The movies that he makes, it's his production company. So he just picks places he can go on vacation with his family. - I think there's a lot of good Adam Sandler movies that I've really enjoyed. Like, has anyone seen "Anger Management?" - Yeah, yeah. - I really, really enjoyed. Jack Nicholson and Adam Sandler, my God, that's such a good film. He has such a bad rep, but I fucking, like his films defined a lot of like the early 2000s comedies I feel. Nothing wrong with "Click." - Yeah, nothing wrong with "Click." Easily, I mean, fucking what's his name, as well is in it. Christopher Walken. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's the one that gives the remote, right? - Yeah, he's the one that gives the remote. - I just wish they didn't set it up so fucking stupid. Like, in a Bed Bath Beyond he gets it. - He's like, yeah, he's like a security guard at Bed Bath and Beyond. - And there's so many fucking childish jokes, like when he farts on the guy and stuff and then fast forwards in the room. Like, that shit's so dumb 'cause like they actually hit so many good fucking emotional notes. I wish they didn't fucking sully it with that shit. But it's actually a good movie. I love it. It's so good. - Although to be fair, the scene where he like smacks the boss in the face and then plays it, and goes like, "Whoa, I just had a massive headache." That scene is still really funny. - Yeah, yeah, there's some good moments. - Okay. I have never seen "Catch Me If You Can." - You haven't? - [Joey] No. - It's so good! - It's a movie I've heard so many times. - I think it is the best Leonardo DiCaprio film. - That's all I've heard from people. - And then there's Tom Hanks in it as well. And Tom Hanks is just a fucking delight. - I mean, I feel like it's... - What do you think is, when you think Leonardo DiCaprio, what movie comes to your mind? - I don't think of "Catch Me If You Can." I think of Tom Hanks for this one. - I don't think of him for it. But then also when I think of it, it uses like everything that Leonardo DiCaprio, especially at that point in his life- - What movie do you think of when you say Leonardo DiCaprio now? - Probably now "Wolf of Wall Street." - Yeah, I think "Wolf of Wall Street." - That's because- - Oh, really? I think of "Shutter Island." - Really? - What? - I just really like that movie. - Okay, that's a good movie. - It's either "Wolf of Wall Street' or "Django." - I feel like Leonardo DiCaprio has evolved quite a lot during his time because he's been acting since like- - Remember when he was the "Titanic" boy? Nobody knew him for anything else but "Titanic." - But like, I feel like when he did this movie, it like perfectly captured at that age what he was best at doing, was playing like the sexy young guy. And he's so fucking good in this movie. And I love it. - I mean, he's good in every movie. - You need to watch this movie. - No, no, I do. And this is one of those movies that I've heard people talking about for years now, and I just never found the time to watch it. - And it's based on a true story. And like the guy- - It's a biopic? - It is a biopic. - I love biopics. - The guy who it's actually based on has done like Google talks now about how he, I think he's done work. He did like work for the FBI afterwards and stuff. - I think he was in this movie or at least he was a producer. - Yeah, because I've purposely like not looked into this film 'cause I feel like I just want to go into it blind. - Yeah, just watch it. It's such a good story. And although obviously it's dramatized, it is based on a real event, and it's so good. - 'Cause like if I was to actually do a three by three with like my top favorite movies of all time, there would definitely also be a Tom Hanks movie in there. - Oh dude, "Castaway" would be in here for me. - I had only seen "Castaway" recently, and it was one of the few movies that- - You only saw it recently? - Yeah, I only saw it recently. But it was one of the few movies where despite how much hype had gone into it, I thought it was as good. It lived up to everything. I thought it was an amazing fucking film. - "Catch Me If You Can" is more of a Leonardo DiCaprio film than a Tom Hanks film. - I feel like it's half and half. To me- - It's two big names. - It's two very big names, and I feel like, yeah, it is Leonardo DiCaprio. He does do really well in it. And I feel like he just, him and Tom Hanks, it's both of them in that film. Whereas with "Castaways" Tom Hanks, and what was the other fucking massive Tom Hanks film that- - "Green Mile?" - Not "Green Mile." - Was he in "Green Mile?" - Yeah, he plays the main security guard. - Oh yeah. - "Forrest Gump." Fucking what an amazing film. That will probably be like in my- - Also "Saving Private Ryan" as well. - Everything he's in he's good. - "Toy Story." Hello? - Oh yeah. - Anything that man is in is a good film, straight up. - I just feel like he's the world's dad. I don't know. (Joey laughs) - He's everyone's dad. - He is everyone's dad. I want Tom Hanks as a dad. Are you fucking kidding me? My God. - I feel like we should explain some of the plots of these. "Catch Me If You Can-" - I just feel these are such like big movies that everyone should know them. - "Catch Me If You Can" if you haven't seen it, it's about a guy who pretends to be a pilot and that's it. That's literally it. And about a detective trying to find him. - That's not what it's about. - It's kind of it. I don't want to spoil too much! - Yeah, don't go too into detail. - I don't want to give more information than that. - I just know it's a fucking amazing film, and I need to watch it. - That's like, I mean, it's that, but it's not, but just watch it. Like, that's it, kind of. (Garnt laughs) - That's like saying like, "Sixth Sense" is about a divorce. - I mean, it's the real life story of a con artist, right? That's pretty much it. - Okay, and then, okay. I appreciate the fact that you put "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory" but the OG one. - Yeah, the OG one. The new one sucked. - Yeah, the new one sucks. - I think it's got its 50th anniversary this year. - Damn, already? - Yeah. - Shit. - I just love this movie. I can watch like as, from a young age to now, like fucking Gene Wilder is like such a God damn good actor. Holy shit, this movie's good. - I mean, it's- - Also fuck his granddad, bro. Fuck his granddad. - I mean, it's a classic movie for a reason, right? I mean, already mentioned "The Truman Show" as well, which- - Great movie. - Was my favorite Jim Carrey movie as well. Why are there so many, like why are so many comedy actors that are just like actual, just really fucking good actors? - I think you need to understand emotions well to be funny, I think. - Jim Carrey is such a fucking good actor when he decides to act. - I feel sorry for that, man. He seems like he has a lot of problems. - Yeah, yeah. - But I feel like comedy actors normally do have that problem. - I really want to rewatch "The Truman Show" now because I want to, because the entire premise of "The Truman Show" is that it's just, is it a twist? Can I spoil it? - I think everyone knows what it is. If you don't know what the twist is, you should know what the twist is. - So, it follows the story of this guy whose entire life has just been broadcasted. It's just like, it's just his life is a reality TV show. - They've made a world around this man to make a TV show. - This was a "Black Mirror" episode before "Black Mirror" was a thing. - Basically. - This is basically just IRL Twitch, before IRL Twitch was a thing. And now it is a thing. - Except that in the movie, he doesn't want to be filmed. IRL Twitch people are like, "Yeah, let's do it." - Okay, so you remember Ludwig's sub-athon? Just imagine that from like birth. - But he didn't know. - But he didn't know. And that's "The Truman Show" and it's just a fucking amazing film. - I'd love to see "The Truman Show," except where Truman is just a horrible person because Truman in this is a nice guy. What if Truman did things that got him canceled all the time? You know? Would people still watch the show? Would the ratings go down? How would they fix the ratings if Truman was going around- - Just gets canceled. - Just getting canceled. They're like, "Fuck, we gotta interfere. "We gotta reeducate Truman." - [Joey] And then we joked about "No Country for Old Men." - [Connor] Yeah, I fucking love this film. - It's a great film. It's just one of those films that's like, "Yes, I'm a movie critic." - I don't think that based on my list that you could say that about me. But I do think that "No Country for Old Men" was the first film where I was like, "Wait, you can just like make things this ambiguous? "What the fuck? "What the fuck?" And it's also not cheesy as fuck. - I mean, I do like my very kind of open-ended ambiguous films. "Memento" was one of them. - You know, you don't really have a film where you follow the main character often that acts, behaves in this cold way that you're also like, you're like, "Come on, tell me something." And they just don't tell you anything. - I think the only other film that's even remotely like that is maybe like "American Psycho." - Maybe, yeah. But every single, like, you know, when you rewatch this movie so many times, and then you go and watch like- - Have you rewatched it a lot? - Yeah, 'cause it used to be on channel four all the fucking time. - Yeah, it did, didn't it? - So I used to watch it all the fucking time, like 10 ad breaks in between. But like, you know, you'd watch this movie and then you'd read about it and you'd be like, "Oh, that's what that was about." And then you go back and watch it. "Oh shit!" - I was exactly the same with, and I was debating whether to put it on, but I was like, no, my three by three is already pretentious enough. I was gonna put "Mulholland Drive." - Oh my God. - Oh my fucking... Great film by the way. - Great film. David Lynch is one of my favorite directors. But I was like, I don't want this to be more pretentious. - That's what I was thinking as well. - There's so many things in "No Country for Old Men" that I just love so much to this day. Like, the fact that he just decides sometimes to flip a coin to kill them. And he went through with it. Like, if it genuinely went heads, he wouldn't like it would kill them. And it's like, holy shit, this man is insane. - Yeah, like, I've gone through this like recent phase of just like instead of watching movies again, I just rewatch clips from movies. And for some reason, like, because I watched one, another iconic clip gets recommended, and like, I remember just rewatching the gas station scene- - I fucking love that! - And holy fuck. What a good scene. I think out of like the entire history of movies, in terms of like tension, I can't think of a better scene than that. - He's just such a good actor as well, but I can't remember the main man. He was one of the villains in the "Bond" movies. But he's terrifying. He's so good at this. - Those eyes, man. - I know, right? - Cold blooded eyes. - Every single dialogue moment that he has with anyone, it's just like, oh my God, it's fucking terrifying. - That's funny you say you go back and like watch movie clips of like iconic movies 'cause I have that exact thing with the fucking court scene in "There Will Be Blood." (Garnt laughs) Like, Daniel Day Lewis is like doing that like insane monologue at the courtroom, and I'm like, holy shit. I need to go back and watch this movie, but I can't be fucked to go back and watch this. - I actually like (laughs) there's, there's been the phase now where, because I've been watching a lot of movie clips, sometimes I just watch clips from movies I haven't seen. And then I end up just- - You psychopath. - Huh? - You psychopath. - No, because like it gets recommended and like it's a good clickbait title. I'm like, damn, that was a good scene. And then I watch another clip and another clip. And I feel like there's a lot of people doing this now because I go to the comments section, and, - Psychopath. - I go to the comments section and it's just like, I feel like it's people who've gone through the exact same algorithm journey as me. 'Cause I remember going through the comments section and it's just, "I feel like I've watched this entire movie now "just through clips." And I'm just like, that's exactly what I did! - Those poor cinema directors pour their heart out to make a cohesive story that's well paced, and you motherfuckers go on YouTube and watch clips. "I've seen the movie now. "I've seen four clips." - "I've seen the TikTok clips of it." - Oh my God. Yeah, I fucking love that movie. I can rewatch it as many times. - Yeah, I mean, watch "No Country for Old Men." It's a very good film. - That's a great film. - Or just watch the gas station scene on YouTube. - No! Don't do that! Don't do that! - With zero context. - You need to watch the whole film! - And be very confused why this guy is asking this other guy to flip a coin. - It's still a great scene even out of context. - The fucking dialogue he asks people is, like, the things he asks people are so creepy. - The thing that stands out to me in that film wasn't the dialogue, but it's when he puts down the candy wrapper and it just like expands for like a little bit too long. And I've never been so tense hearing just a candy wrapper expand. I'm just like, what the fuck? - Also, the coolest weapon ever used in a movie. - Yeah. - The fucking gas canister. So fucking cool. Because you're like, oh, this is badass but fuck he's terrifying. But man, that's cool though. - Really scary. I forgot Tommy Lee Jones is in that movie as well. - Yeah, he's the main guy trying to get him, right? - Yeah, yeah. The detective or police guy or whatever. - The sheriff. - The sheriff, that's right, yeah. - And then of course, last of all, we've got "Ip Man." Fucking... I mean, what can you say? - It's the best, one of the best, if not the best martial arts movie, especially in the past 20 years. - I agree with that. - There's a lot of, I mean, I'm sure a lot of people who are massive martial arts buff would argue there's a lot of the earlier films, like some of Jet Li's earlier stuffs, some of Jackie Chan's earlier stuff. - What happened to Jet Li? He just kinda disappeared. - He kind of jetted. - As far as I know- (everyone laughs) - Get the fuck out of here. - So as far as I know what happened with Jet Li is that after "Fearless," which was the 2008- - Which I thought was a fucking amazing film. - It was supposed to be his last, that was supposed to be his last like epic martial arts film. And it was kind of well received. It was, it's like a very seven, six out of 10 film. - I thought it was really good. It was, actually like, I think it's really underrated for a Jet Li movie. - I mean, his older stuff is just way better. - Yeah, I know. But in terms of modern stuff. - You know, and that was supposed to be his last one. And then what ended up happening was is that the "Expendables" were like money. So that was actually like- - That's right, he was in "The Expendables." - So that was like his last action film. And since then, he kind of said, as far as I know, he kind of quit doing big martial arts films 'cause I think it's just too intense. Like, it's a lot 'cause you have to, those scenes, like choreograph is insane. - I just remembered the fucking "Expendables" movie. I was like talk about the most wankerish movie. Like, "Let's just get as many big people as possible "and just throw them into a movie." - It's just fun, right? - It was fun. - But have you seen this? - I've seen "Ip Man," yeah. - When did you watch "Ip Man?" - I actually watched it not too long ago 'cause you recommended it. - Did you like it? - Yeah, it's really fucking good. I mean, I love Jet Li. - It's got one of my favorite fight scenes is when he, fighting the Japanese and the karate, like 10 of them and he breaks their leg. - That scene I think is like the best, one of the best fucking martial arts scenes of all time. Talking about clips you can rewatch on YouTube. - Yeah, okay, to be fair, all right, yeah, that's fair enough. - You can watch Kung Fu fights. But like you can't watch that scene from "No Country for Old Men" out of context. (everyone laughs) - It's just, like the story of "Ip Man" is it's about when Japan is invading China way back. And then I think there's a scene where, but once they've invaded they're like, oh well, you know, "Japanese karate or something is superior. "So bring your Chinese people to practice with." - To practice. - That's literally what it is. It's like, if you win, you get a bag of rice or something. And he's like, "I'll take on 10 of you." Okay, it's kind of cheesy, but it is epic. But it's so fucking epic. And he like snaps their legs doing it. It's insane. - I feel that kind of cheesiness though in martial arts films is what makes a martial arts film. - It totally is. I feel like it set, that scene alone, it set the stakes perfectly where it's just like, holy shit, I'm ready to see him fuck shit up. And he just takes on 10 black belts. - That's not even like the end of the film though. It's like halfway through. But it's the best fight. - It's the best fight of the franchise. 'Cause I remember when, because the previous guy, he fought like three black belts, and he's like, "Fuck, I'll take on all of you." And it's just one of the few moments in film where you're just like, 'I'm ready for this." - You don't care how cheesy it is. - Yeah, I don't care how cheesy this is. - Especially like when you are like, so when I was like 16, whenever I was watching all these movies, I legitimately thought like martial arts is like badass and I'm like, dude, this is epic. But obviously now with all the, you know, the MMA fighters that like fought them, now it's not so epic because you're like, okay, the MMA fighters just kill these guys. But when you're like 16, you think like, "Oh shit, this is like the superior way of fighting. "This is epic. "Oh my God!" Like, it's so cool. - "They don't use strength, they use speed and balance!" - It's so fucking cool. But yeah, now, not so much. But back then, you're like, "Oh my God, this is amazing!" There's a lot of martial, like Jet Li's earlier stuff is amazing. Obviously Jackie Chan's earlier cinemography is amazing as well. Love like "Drunken Master" and stuff like that. That's such a good film. What are some really good, what's the, I forgot what Jet Li's highest rated film is called. It's his 1980s film. It's really highly rated. Is it "Fist of the Dragon" is it? Or "Enter the Dragon" or something? - "Enter the Dragon" is a Bruce Lee movie. - [Ashley] "Fist of the Legend." - "Fist of the Legend" that's it. That's like, his, like I think it has like 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. - I was about to say "Fist of Fury," but I'm pretty sure that's Bruce Lee, right? - That's Bruce Lee. - Also "Hero" with Jet Li is a really good one. But it depends if you'd like martial arts film where they use like wires. Like, some people don't like it when they do that. - It's wire fu, right? - I kind of prefer it when they're just like beating the shit out of each other. - Is that the name of the genre? Wire fu? - I know it has a name. - [Ashley] It's called wirework. - Wirework. - It's not really martial arts, but it is martial arts. But "Hero" was really good. 2006. - I really liked "Hero" which had Donnie Yen in it as well. And Jet Li. - The story's so fucking cool. - Yeah, I think that story is cool. - I feel like I haven't really sat down and watched like a lot of Jet Li films. - His stuff is actually like really fucking good. 'Cause Donnie Yen hasn't... Oh, another one, I think it's called, it might be called "War" or like "Warrior" or something. It's like, it's about like the three kingdoms or something in China way back. - Oh, yeah. - [Ashley] "Warrior." - What is it called? - [Ashley] I think it's called "Warrior." - Might be called just "Warrior." - [Ashley] "Warrior," yeah. - And it's such a good fucking- - Jet Li film? - Yeah, Jet Li's the main character. And it's like this... About how like a general got like, I don't know, I don't wanna spoil it. But just watch it. It's really fucking good. Really, really fucking good. - And I feel like, 'cause I, I didn't want to put another martial arts film on my three by three, but I feel like one of the few things Southeast Asians can be proud about are our fucking martial arts films. 'Cause we have like, "The Raid," "Ong-Bak." - Yeah, "Ong-Bak" is really good. - Pretty much the only thing of Thai culture that's ever been like popularized outside. But yeah, like I, like, I was really happy to see like the more like gritty martial art films. You know, you think of like, you know, "Ip Man" is more like very clean. - "The Raid" is really fucking good. - "The Raid" is so good. - Indonesian, right? - Yeah, it's Indonesian. - But directed by a Welsh guy. - Oh really? - It's a Welsh guy who directed it. - Oh, shit. - Is that "The Raid 1" or "Raid 2?" 'Cause I know he directed "Raid 2." - "Raid..." Who directed "Raid 1" and "2?" Can you check real quick? I swear, it's the same guy. - That's another movie I've heard of, but I've never seen. - "The Raid?" Dude! "The Raid 1" is such a good premise. - Yeah, yeah. - Just get to the top of an apartment building. That's it. - It's basically just a fighting game. (Joey laughs) - Like, Double Dragon. - It's just Double Dragon. - The fighting, like the choreography is insane. - [Ashley] Gareth Evans. - Yeah, Gareth Evans. The most Welsh name on earth. Too Welsh names, Gareth and Evan. - Fair enough. - I just like, it's so bizarre. There's a Welsh guy directing an Indonesian film. - [Joey] Hell yeah, dude. - But it's just like awesome. Like, it's such a good- - That's some cross culture pollination right there. Hell yeah, dude. - Look at us Thai and Welsh here too, you know. (everyone laughs) But yeah, I mean, yeah, I fucking love fighting, martial arts movies. I've watched nearly all of Jet Li's films. I think I've watched most of them. I couldn't watch some of the older ones 'cause they were impossible to find online. And I've watched I think all of Donnie Yen's films pre "Ip Man." I haven't watched "Ip Man 4." I heard it was okay. - I really liked "Ip Man 4." - Really? - Yeah, I actually it's my second favorite "Ip Man." - Maybe I'll watch it tonight. - Because I feel like "Ip Man 4" is just- - "3" was the worst. - I feel like "Ip Man 4" was just "Ip Man 2" done better. Because my problem with "Ip Man 2" is that the villain is just so comical that I just couldn't take him seriously. It's just like, let's characterize this character. - So, the whole selling point to like a Western audience of "Ip Man" was just that it's the guy who trained Bruce Lee. That's literally the selling point of that. - [Joey] Fair enough. - But he's supposed to be like a master or something. I don't know. - I mean, that is a cool like catch to be fair. - I mean, that's how it was marketed, and the story, I don't, again, I don't know how true it is, but it's an interesting made up story maybe if it is. I don't know if it's true or not. - [Ashley] It's true. It's a real character but the events are fictional. - Yeah, that's normally how it goes with martial arts people. It's kind of hard to survive some of the shit they go through. - Like, I'm sure they fought all those people, but they probably died halfway through. - I mean, I don't think he did fight 10 black belts. You know, that's probably, probably dramatized. - Unless he's like a fucking super saiyan. - There's another Donnie Yen film that's actually really good where he's like a detective in a small town, I think in a village. And it's really good 'cause it's like a mystery of the martial arts and it's just, yeah, it's really good. I forgot what it's called. Again, I've watched these movies so long ago. It came after "Ip Man." - Same with Jackie Chan as well. Some of his best works are when he was young. Like, fucking "Police Story." - Oh, "Police Story" is fantastic. - [Connor] Is that scene where he jumps on the wire? - [Garnt] Yeah, yeah, yeah. And it's completely real. - [Ashley] Were you thinking of "Flash Point?" - Might be "Flash Point," yeah. - [Ashley] Or "Kung Fu Jungle." I think it's "Flash Point." - Is it yellow the poster? - [Ashley] The yellow one is, oh, oh wait. We have the Chinese name. It's the one where he's a teacher, right? - Maybe. Again, I might've remembered it incorrectly because it's been so- - [Ashley] "Big Brother." - I'll have to go back to the thing and watch it. I might be misremembering. - I feel like one underrated Donnie Yen film is I think it was "SPX" or something like that. - What's the plot? (Garnt sighs) - Honestly, I do not remember. But the only reason- - "SPS" just sounds like a law firm. - Let me, let me... - Because what happened was, is that you had Bruce Lee, and then you had Jackie Chan. And then when Jackie Chan was getting older, Jet Li was making films. And then when Jet Li was getting older, Donnie Yen came in. But I don't really know who it is now. Who's like the main martial arts guy. - Martial arts guy? - Who is the main like face of martial arts now? - [Ashley] Donnie Yen, but he's close to retiring. - I think it still is Donnie Yen because he's in the new Marvel film. - Yeah, but they also don't really utilize him much. - I mean, he's the villain, isn't it? - I feel like martial arts films are kind of just like a little bit of a dying breed almost in like especially in the west I feel. Like, I'm sure, like, you know, if you go to Asia and Southeast Asia they're still- - I mean, the past 20 years have all been from China. Like, "Ip Man" is from China. And then Donnie Yen is in "Rogue One" from "Star Wars." But again, when I was watching that movie and you can see what Donnie Yen does, kind of disappointed 'cause you're like, Donnie Yen is so fucking good, and they barely use him. He just swings a fucking thing around. It's like, oh cool. - I haven't seen "Rogue One." - [Ashley] It's cool, but yeah, he could have done- - He could have done so much. Like anyone, like a lot of people could have done what Donnie Yen did in that film. And I feel like why, if you're getting Donnie Yen, and he doesn't really speak much in the film. Because I don't think he can speak much English. - All I'm saying is there hasn't been a "Rush Hour 2." There hasn't been a modern "Rush Hour." - Do a reboot with Donnie Yen. - Yeah, honestly! Fuck yeah. - And Ice Cube. - Ice Cube and Donnie Yen! (everyone laughs) The movie industry, we just gave you a million dollar idea. Donnie Yen and Ice Cube in "Rush Hour 7" or whatever the next one is. - [Ashley] The movie you were thinking about was "SPL." - "SPL." - What's the plot of that movie? Can you tell me the plot? - [Ashley] "SPL?" - Yeah. - [Ashley] My phone's in Japanese. - But I remember there's one fight scene in "SPL" which is like completely just improvised. - Okay, is that in the street? - Yeah, it's in the street. And it's such a fucking good fight scene. And then because the whole premise around this, the whole background around this fight scene is that they trained together, these two actors, Donnie Yen and I'm not sure who the other person is, but they trained together. And because they were so familiar with each other's fighting style, they literally just improvise this fight scene with just- - That's so cool. - With just this basic, okay, here's what's meant to happen, but let's just try to kill each other and then let's just get it on film. - It's so cool. - It's such a good film as well. - [Ashley] It's a story where an honest detective who's suffering from cancer and about to retire resorts to illegal means in order to capture ruthless triads. - Oh yeah. - All I remember was there was a police detective in it, and I'm just like... That's like, it's either like traditional historical setting or they're a police detective. - Or it's a crime drama. (everyone laughs) Or it's like a neo noire crime drama. But I mean like, oh God, how do you like describe this three by three? It's like- - How do you describe any? - Powerful. - How do describe any three by three? - You can describe mine, pretentious film critic. - Pretentious, powerful. - I don't know. - Guilty pleasure. (everyone laughs) - I was trying to think of a word with P. - P? Why P? - 'Cause- - Pretentious, powerful. Poopoo peepee. (everyone laughs) - Yeah, poopoo peepee. - But yeah, I guess those are our three by threes. - Hope you get to watch some interesting movies if you haven't seen some of these. - Yeah, please go and watch all the movies we recommended. - I have some movie recommendations that I will be watching, I guess now. - Yeah, I've honestly come out of this with some movie recommendations. And this was actually like- - "Shrek 2." - Obviously. I always got time for "Shrek 2." - We know what we're doing after this. Sitting down with some "Shrek 2," baby. - But no, I mean, like it feels good to be able to talk about movies 'cause I feel like I don't get to talk about movies a lot, even though like I kind of realized whenever I talk about movies, I've seen a lot of movies and I feel like you guys have seen a lot of movies as well. And we even like off-camera, we don't really talk about movies in general. - I think it just has to do with the fact that we haven't really had time to just sit down and watch some. - To be fair, I've not watched movies in awhile. - Yeah, me neither. - I feel like, I don't know. I feel like people don't watch as many movies anymore. - Yeah, like if it's not on Netflix, then I probably haven't seen it. - I'd say I've watched like 90% of the films I've seen in like between the ages of like 18 and 14. - Yeah, I think that's usually like the period in your life when you're like, "I'm gonna watch a lot of movies." - It's also when I discovered you could just Google the movies. And I was like, holy shit. - Yeah, I mean, my dad used to collect like a shitload of DVDs when BlockBuster was still a thing. So, like I just watched a lot of the movies with my dad. - Yeah, I mean, I watch a lot less movies than I did before as well because now it's just all been replaced by anime. And a lot of anime movies. - YouTube. - And YouTube as well. But I feel like if there's a big enough movie, then I probably have seen it. Like, I'm surprised no one put any Marvel movies here. - Who the fuck cares? - Who the fuck cares about Marvel? - I mean, I care about Marvel. I'm just like, Marvel's that one franchise where I'm just like, hello, I'm a normie. - Yeah, it's fun. But it's not like, I'm never like, "Fuck dude, that made me think something, "that made me like happy." - If I'm gonna watch a three hour- - I don't know, I was really fucking invested in "Infinity War" and "Endgame." I will say that. - I didn't even watch those. - "Endgame" was good. But again, it wasn't like, I thought it was amazing, but it wasn't like, when I left the cinema, like a week later, I don't think about "Endgame." - Well, I'm surprised no one put "John Wick" as well. - I was close. - I thought someone was gonna put "John Wick" on. - That was just another one of those like it's fun, turn your brain off- - No, no, no. - It's amazing. No! - It's fucking amazing. - No, I'm not saying it's a bad movie. - "John Wick" is probably like my favorite action series. - It's like in the west, they have "John Wick" and in the east they have "Ip Man." That's like, "Ip Man" is just like the Asian equivalent of "John Wick." - Dude, man, I just... It holds a very dear place in my heart. I've watched all the "John Wick" movies in the cinema. And like I've watched the last one that came out alone, and the cinema was empty and I had like such an amazing time watching that. It was like the last- - Yeah! - Bro, it was just fun. I got to put my legs up on the chair in front of me. I had all my popcorn and I just got to enjoy it, bro. It was so good. It was such a good, dude, I'm so excited for the next one. - I've only seen the first "John Wick" movie. - I'm so hype for it. It gets better and better. The second one's amazing. - Again, it's another one of those like long list of movies that I hear people talking about saying it's amazing. And I'm like, all right, I'll watch it. - I don't want to be too normie, so I didn't put it on. But it's, yeah. - Yeah, just sometimes I just don't know what movies to watch because I, like it's weird now 'cause I don't know where to start because you know, we're so ingrained in like anime culture that I know, you know, when there's a hot anime coming out. But in terms of movie recommendations, anything from like the past five years, if it's not been talked about a lot, then I just probably haven't seen it. - I mean, I barely have enough time to watch anime let alone fucking movies. - Joey, you don't watch anime period. - No, I don't. I don't watch movies, period. I don't watch anime, period. That's just how it goes. - Just read manga. - I just read manga. Just read manga and read porn. - You know who does watch movies, Joey? - Who? - You tell me. - Is it the patrons? - It is the patrons. - Hell yeah, bro. Look at all these movie goers. Let us know on the Reddit I guess. I mean, I don't even have to tell you guys to fucking do it 'cause you probably will just fill up our subreddit with your three by threes. Please do so 'cause we want to see what you guys- - I think now that because we have mods in the subreddit, we're gonna have like a dedicated thread for your movie three by threes. And if you have any movie recommendations, I'm actually all open ears for it. - Oh, absolutely. - To me watching movies is my downtime because I just, I can watch it and I don't have to think about making a video on it. I can just watch it to enjoy it. - Exactly. - It's just like, to me with movies is how I feel other people are to anime where I'm just looking for some good movies. So, any movies that have come out recently that you might recommend. - Yeah, if you have any recommendations, please leave it down in the comments. - I've been pretty out of touch with the movie scene. - Tell us, gamers.
