Welcome to Movie Life Crisis. Join us as we watch the best movies from 30 years ago.[Music] From Walt Disney Pictures, four Jamaicans are determined to become Olympic pop sliders. And who are you, as it make and boxed? Now, with a little training, hold them up, and a lot of practice. They might just do the impossible. Oh, thanks, Coach. I am feeling very Olympic today. Cool, what is? Inspired by the true story. I'm gonna go in a holdin' party, holdin' right.- Greated PG, sneak preview this Saturday and Sunday.- Inspired by a true story, air quotes.- True, air quotes.- Yeah, yeah, story.- Air quotes inspired by.(laughing)- Dude, cool running, all right.- Dude, episode 20 of season three.- Wow, 20.- Already.- I can't believe we're here.- Whoever were there, I always said.(laughing)- This is the kind of movie that I wanted to do this podcast about because I don't know if anyone else remembers it or cares about it, but I always loved it. And I think there's a bunch of fun stuff about it that we could talk about.- Yeah, that's awesome. I remember owning it so I watched it a lot too. So as a kid.- Yeah, I watched it a whole whole lot.- Yeah.- All right, well, freaking, let's do the thing. That's a movie live crisis. I'm JT, your Jeff. We are, well shit, like three quarters of the way through season three, we got like eight movies left or seven movies or something.- Oh, only.- Only. And we just released when Harry Medzallion Patreon. So I'm very proud of us for keeping up with Patreon'cause the 89 movies we're doing now, we got some really fun stuff.- Yeah, I know you said 89 is in the year, but it feels like 89 is in the number of movies we're doing.(laughing)'Cause now we're just banging them out, we're finally getting to that point.- Yeah, did we're in the groove. Roger, by the way, long time Patreon and also a long time friend, who went to kindergarten with me, texted me and said that we talked about in "Hairy Met Sally" that you can only be high maintenance if you're a girl and he said he definitely knows some high maintenance guys. And he told me a story about a road trip where there was a lot of luggage.(laughing) And then another Patreon ginger wrote us on Patreon and said she actually owned those like they have the week underpants and they definitely didn't make Sundays.- Why again?- 'Cause I don't know because Jesus.(laughing) That's what Meg Ryan said.- Oh man, days of the week under pants. I'm gonna try to get some of those. I wonder if my wife will buy this for me.- Yeah, it's her birthday like in a week. Maybe she'll buy you some underwear.- Yeah, that's what she definitely wants. Dude, cool running since the jam.- Yeah, I was kind of nervous because I really like this movie. I've seen it in the last two years. I was like, oh man, I hope when I watch it, like critically, I still like it. I don't want to ruin my memory of it.'Cause I'll just throw it on and I'll do other stuff. My, it makes me feel like I'm back on my grandparents house. And I still liked it. So I'm happy about that.- Yeah, when you said grandparents house, that was for reals because I can remember like watching this show like at my grandparents house. Like, oh, we can bring some VHSs to my mom's house. So after Christmas dinner, like when everybody else is watching stuff, I can go in the other room and put the VHS in and watch it. These were the type of movies we would bring. Not just this is the type of movie, we would specifically, because my grandmother, I'm going to tell a story because it's funny and it's true and it's also horrifying. But I got to give some context. My grandmother was born in 1905 and never lived out of Southern Louisiana. Yeah. Very well educated, but I want to give you some context for what her life was like. because we'd go over to their house like on Fridays and we'd stay Friday night, like not, I don't know, maybe once a month or twice a month, something like that.- Yeah. - And we would like, we'd order pizza, we'd always order dominoes. She would order like spaghetti or something from Dominoes, which you think if you're Italian, you wouldn't order spaghetti for Dominoes, but we would get pizza, Joe and I would, and she would get like spaghetti.- I just pictured the guy on the other side of the phone like man, we don't have spaghetti and he heard insisting that Dominoes serve spaghetti.- They definitely did have spaghetti and she definitely did get it.(laughing) And she would want to rent this movie, but she wouldn't remember the name of the movie. And what she would say is, let's go rent that movie where the N words, Bob's lead. And so I'm like 13 or 14 and I'm like, I don't think you can say that. I'm pretty sure we're not allowed to say that. Let me just, you stay in the Cadillac, I'll go get the movie. I'll run it. So that way, nothing terrible happens to us. Oh man, that's crazy. 1905, that sounds about right.- Right, but like the weird thing is, like she was a college professor at Southeastern. Like I think she thought of herself as like pretty open-minded, but that's just like that's the life that like just in the same way that there's words that we can't say now that we said 20 years ago. Like I can't say, I can't make fun of you for being gay if you do something dumb because I shouldn't use gay as a pejorative. I know more now than I did 15 years ago.- Right, right.- Like I don't think she meant that to be hateful. That's just how she talked about black people. And I had to be like, please don't ever say that. That's not the right word for people that don't look like you. I'll rent the movie. But I remember it's so vividly,'cause she would just say like, we'll get some dominoes, we'll rent that movie, we're the inwards bobs, like I'm like,"Ahh, God, please don't say that."- Oh man, that is, yeah man, that's a deep cut. That's...- I'm like, I'm like embarrassed to tell that story, but also it's really what happened, and it's one of the reasons why I remember this movie. So vividly. - No reason.- No reason to be embarrassed for that. That's, I mean, I don't have any racist memories of this movie, but I never really watched it with my grandma.- But that's the part that's crazy. Is she loved the movie? She really wanted to, it was her idea to rent it. She just, that was how she referred to black people, and I was trying to get that across to her, and I was not able to, I'm sure. Hopefully, like my kids and my grandkids, when they tell me, like, please don't say those words anymore. I'm okay, right. I'm gonna lock that in, 'cause I've offended someone, and I didn't know, and now I'm gonna do a different. That's why people are like, we're not gonna celebrate Columbus anymore, I'm like, dude, what do I care? It's not, if someone says that Italian American, that's you, man. Yeah, right, who cares? Like, it's just, like I'm always happy to change the name of something if people say that it hurts their feelings. Like, I don't, I just don't care.- Yeah, we've had this discussion when a student has to be called something different and somebody's like, "Oh, I don't think we should"have to do that." We bring up the whole, you don't call that guy, O'Shea Jackson, you call him Ice Cube and you've been calling him Ice Cube his whole life. Just call the other person what they wanna be called, who cares?- Dude, if we discover a tribe of like, uncontacted natives, like somewhere deep in the jungle and their name is Movie Life and they decided the name of this podcast is offensive to them, we'll just change the name podcast like I don't care. That would be. I don't think that's going to happen. That's, that's it. Yeah, that'd be. But I'm putting it out there. If it does, I don't care. I'll be sorry. I remember this because we would get dominos. Grandma would get spaghetti from dominos. And we would watch this movie. And I know we did it 10 or 15 times. Dude, I want spaghetti from dominos now. I want to see what it's like. She sounds educated. No one had tasted it. Yeah, she was freaking from her parents were straight up from Italy. And she was like, you know who's got good spaghetti is dominos.(laughing)- That's way different.- Just like I used to have in Palermo back in it's freaking Southern Italy.- We're super white. We just took a tub of country crock and heated it in the microwave with ketchup in it. And mama called them sketties.- Yeah.- Yeah, it's gross.- All right, so now we've got the politically incorrect part that we usually do at the end right up front. Let's go to the,- Right in the right. This is A.I. Synopsis. A Chad G.P.T. did this one. Cool Runnings is a 93 comedy directed by John Turtle Top. Turtle Top? Is that a say that? Yeah, I think so too. It tells the inspirational and comedic story of the first Jamaican Bob Sled team to compete in the Winter Olympics. Derry Spanick played by Leon is a Jamaican sprinter who dreams of Olympic glory, but misses out on a chance to track and field. He forms a Bob Sled team, confront stereotypes, types and works together with his teammates to achieve their dreams while capturing the hearts of the audience with its feel good message. I don't know why when I try to speak Jamaican it comes out as Irish or Scottish. Jamaicans are hard accent. Yeah it is. They did a pretty good job though. I don't know how many I don't think Leon is Jamaican in real life is he? No none of them are Jamaican. Yeah that's great. And I know that like the guy Malik Yoba, the guy that played at Yule Brenner, like he had to work hard. He's like hired a dialing coach.- Ooh, Brenna.- Yule Brenna. You'll go get Chip Palace. I'm not good at Jamaican. I try to work on it a little bit. It's not really happening for me. I was using it all day during class and everybody was like,"What, are you Scottish?" I was like, "Yuck, oh, get a gig, you got Chip, boom, sledge."- That's a concept.- Hot dick. No, another one we're Jamaican, they all, dude, the funny thing is they, first of all, I don't think we need an AI for that synopsis. This is a very simple movie to explore.- Yeah, it is.- It's the Jamaican Bobbysled team.- It took me longer to say it than the movie actually happened. 98 minutes.- Yeah, exactly. Apparently Disney during the early points of this, I don't know if it was like the rehearsal or the like early filming, they were worried that the accents were like so authentic that no one was gonna be able to understand it'cause the kids' movies. And they told the director, they're like,"Listen, if they don't sound like Sebastian the Crab, if like Jeffrey Katzenberg called the director,- Yeah, I don't wanna am, I guess he had seen Daly's or something, he's like, "If I can't understand this movie, like, you're fired and I'll find another director."- Right.- And like, he went to the cast and was like,"Listen, I know you guys are actors and you're doing a very authentic job, but like, we got to dial it back down."- Yeah. I think they did a great job. I didn't have to put subtitles on.- Well, they did an awesome job. I understood most of it. Some of it were like, I understood the words, but I didn't understand the context, like, Dougie Doug was saying stuff. I was like, I understand what he said, but I don't know what that phrase means.- Right, right. But that's just Jamaican slang, maybe.- Yeah, that's what I'm saying. That's what they did. They did an excellent job.- Yeah, they did.- $17 million budget, $155 million gross. This thing--- Did it right?- Did, incredibly, almost 10x the number, just ludicrous. And number 15 in 1993, right? Smacking between Grumpy Oldman and Dave, two other movies we're gonna do, and the remainder of this year.- Yeah, dude, I can see how this could make a lot of movie. I'm gonna make a lot of money.- Yeah, dude, it's fun. It was fun to watch.- And everybody can see it. That's the other thing, you know what I'm saying?- It's really fun. Everyone can see it. Yes, there's no age that's not allowed to see this movie.- Right.- I mean, honestly, I like the,'cause I was reading it like it's sports comedy film. I guess that's probably the right term for it.- Yeah, yeah.- Like John Turtletop, the director did a couple of movies. Like kind of in this, he did the national treasure movies. He did three ninjas and stuff like that. And it's like, they're not really comedies, they're not really sports, they just have a bunch of those elements, but they're basically like, they're just PG family movies that have a lot of those, like ensemble cast, some action, like some story and then some fun stuff. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like it's great. Stuff everybody loves. Plus, it's those feel good messages everybody likes, especially in these sports movies like this. Yeah. All right, did you find any awards? I just saw that it was nominated for top 10 sports film by AFI and a hundred years and a hundred cheers. Yeah. Whatever that means from AFI. That's fine. Okay. But those are the only films I've had. Yeah. Yeah. Sequel Spinoffs. I saw something about like a cool runnings too, but I couldn't find any like details about that. I didn't see anything about any of that. And it hasn't happened, but I think there's like, it was like an article about having people people having discussed maybe doing that.- Oh yeah. What would, what do you do? Just follow up and watch them in the Olympics?- Yeah, I don't know. I don't know because you've run out of true story. It's not like it, I mean, you can't go the other way and say like, oh, we're gonna find somebody from Norway and we're gonna bring them to the summer Olympics. That's not a thing. That's, I mean, that's a thing that always happens. You know what I'm saying, like, that goes both ways. But I'm not sure. I'm trying to think of like, what would it be about? I don't even know.- I would have hard time. Maybe if I thought I'd run it for a while, I would eventually come up with a sequel to this movie.- Yeah, yeah. I don't think it needs a sequel.- No, no, I think we're good. Do you remember when and where you first saw this movie? I feel like we kind of already talked about that.- Yeah, dude, mine was one of the, we bought this one on VHS. I remember this being pretty early on DVD I bought too. And I know that my family hates when I tried Jamaica neck. Not my family now, I mean, I'm sure they hated too. But I know, I know my mom and dad and my sister hated it when I would watch this and then try to talk to you making the rest of the day. I'll be like, "Yo, one bad ass mother." I'm like, "All right, that's enough."- Just, "Sanka, you dead man?"- Yes, man.- Dude, I liked the, yes, we're with my grandparents all the time. Every weekend, my grandma wanted to rent this movie. I remember, not the theater though. You didn't see this one in the theater?- No, I don't think so. I don't think any of these movies, I don't know. I don't know why. I guess my parents were like, we'll just catch that one on VHS. And then we'd like it when we'd read it a million times. But yeah, no, we rented it all the time.- Yeah, yeah, we bought it'cause we were gonna do the same. It's got John Candy in it. Why wouldn't you want it?- It's got John Candy in it. And also, I still watched this. I went to, I remember I went to Costa Rica right before Wolf was born two years ago, just me,'cause Wendy was really pregnant. And I was gonna be off the grid for like a week. And I downloaded movies to my phone so that I'd have stuff to, And I just wanted to watch stuff that I know I was gonna like and I knew I was gonna be entertained. But this is one of the movies that I downloaded, I downloaded this and like--- It's a good call.- You know, just stuff that I watch a million times. So I still watch, this is like still a comfort movie for me. I don't know that I'll watch it 10 more times, but I'm sure I'll watch it five more times.- You'll definitely watch it 10 more times. Wait till your kid starts watching movies. Yeah, that's true.- You get to the end and you'll just hear,"I can see clearly and you'll go again!" And you'll just start it all over and watch it again.- Yeah. - Like back to back.- Dude, sound track.- Was this, with this one's actually pretty good. I can see clearly, no, it was way good.- That's great.- Dude, I can see clearly now Jimmy Cliff. I don't know that I knew that that was a, like a redo. I mean, I know now that it was, but I don't think back then I knew that.- I definitely didn't back then.- I don't even know if I knew that before like, five or six years ago, like I don't know. I think I always knew the Jimmy Cliff version.- Yeah, that's the one that I think I know the best. And then, but they also, the soundtrack also has the like,"Sturard Up" by Diana King, not the "About Marley." It's got the, "Wow, wow, life." Like just, it's got just some classic like reggae stuff on there. It's got the rise above it that was over the credits that I didn't love, but I can always remember what it sounds like.- I didn't realize that was Diana King singing "Sturard Up." The only thing I know her from is the bad boy soundtrack. And then she's the one that sings, say a little prayer on my best friend's wedding soundtrack, and that's the jam. - Nice. It's a good one.- All right, let's do ratings. Where do you rate this one? How many chamois dogs?- Yeah, no sevens, which was a problem for me'cause it was right in the sevens.- Yeah.- Like this one landed in the sevens for me.- Yeah, this one was square in the sevens. But I didn't wanna give it a six and a half because I don't know, man, I liked it. It was fun, it went quick. I actually watched it almost two times all the way through to try to get some extra notes or extra things I wanted to write down. Plus, I like the idea of the Olympics. I mean, like the message, in reality, it causes a bunch of problems for a lot of people. And we probably shouldn't have it anymore. But since we are still having it, I like the idea of it and what it represents and the message and history behind it. So I gave it an eight. 8.0 from the East German judge, Jimmy Docs. Dude, I like, it's not that I like the Olympics, but I was thinking about it while I was watching the movie. What I like is this time frame of Olympics, when I was a kid, 'cause it felt like they were important. It took forever for one to come around and everybody watched it.- Yeah, that is true.- And it's 'cause I mean, like, you know, we had like whatever, like four channels and we were little and then as many like 30 ones we got older,- Right.- to majors. But it's like, if the Olympics were on, that was all you really could watch. just like the president is making a speech. So you're going to like, do you guys see the one where they snow-shooting and they shot the gun? That was pretty fun.- Yeah.- Like just, so do you not watch the Olympics now?- No, dude, I haven't watched the Olympics in 15, 20 years, and I promise I'll never watch it again.- Oh, dude, I still like the Olympics.- I freaking hate the Olympics.- I like the thing where they'd snow-shooting and then shoot the gun.- That's gonna be tough. Can you imagine doing that?- No, it's brutal.- No, both of those things shooting guns and snow-shooting sound like too much work for me. And do it together outside.- Not to choose the skis. They're like cross country skis.- Yeah, cross country skis.- And then they lay down and snipe stuff.- It's cool.- I think I like when they were, when they were, the Winter Olympics I think are more fun. The Bob sledding I kept thinking about like, involuntary loose gold medal, then you wanna do it.- Did you wanna do it?- It's like on the inside.- It's dead before you go to the loose.- What is the loose? Well, it's like on the Bob sled track, except there's no sled. It's just Bob. just Bob. So you like the old school Olympics back in the day because you've watched it.- I like it because everybody watched it and there was nothing else on. And now I'm an adult that I know how bad the Olympics are, like for the country and how much of a freaking grift it is. And I don't like it anymore.(laughing)- What'd you give it?- I gave it an eight out of 10.- I was the same way. It would have landed right in the sevens. I think the seven movies or the ones I really wanna do for the podcast, they're like,- Yeah, that's a good deal.- Everyone has to watch this, but they're also like, I really like it.- Right.- I didn't wanna give it a six and a half. And I was, I was,- Six and a half is too low.- It's, I was thinking about six and a half as I was watching the movie, but then it got to the end and the emotional payoff still works for me. I was like getting choked up. They were carrying a sled across the line, which I know is not really what happened. And I was,- Right.- Like the music in the Hans Zimmer score was, I was like,- Yes. - I was like,- I'm totally works for me. and invested in this emotional climax of the movie.- The end part did have me all the way until everybody started slow clapping.- The slow clapping I hate. But in "Nightjit 3," you had to have--- That was it.- Yeah, you got to have it.- And now it's become something that we just, you parody it, it's so corny.- Right, that's what--- That was the only thing you could have done at that point in time is the slow clap where the guy that didn't like him starts nodding. He does the one slow clap and then two other people take up the slow clap. Yeah, if you were gonna, if you were gonna read it this, you would just go like, we gotta get some regular clapping in there and replace the slow clap. You could leave the rest. Or everybody just starts chanting something.(laughing) I like when they do that. Yeah, I like that too. But yeah, dude, it's, you're right, man. 98 minutes, it's got really good pacing. It's got really good score. I like the soundtrack, it's got good performances, it's got a couple laughs, it's got some hearts, character arcs, air quotes based on a true story.(laughing)- Based on a true story.- Yeah, he'd have a 10 for me too. I think honestly, I don't feel at all bad about that because I just think that's when we still a lot of fun.- Yeah, I mean, it's not as fun as like a Captain Run or something like that, but it's fun.- It's not as much fun as Demolition Man, which we're gonna do next, but I don't know that your six year old can watch Demolition Man.- No, no. Everybody who can watch this and they did, and they liked it and they laughed. and all the things that I used to laugh at that I don't laugh at anymore, my kids are still laughing at it. You know what I'm saying? Like breaking the dread off, like they were like audibly laughing. Him kissing his egg, like they like that. And that's what that--- Not kissing no egg.- That's what Dougie Doug was in there for, those type of laughs. You know what I'm saying? He's goofy, he's the daffy guy. And it still works. This 30 years later.- Nice, all right, we both got it as an eight. That's disappointing. I hate it when we agree on stuff. Let's do the best, which you're first to see. I think my first best scene is when Deree starts like recruiting everybody to come do the thing with him. He wants everybody to, it's not just that one scene'cause he's trying to get all the other three guys in it. And he's trying to get them to join the Bob Slet team and they think it's funny and they think it's ridiculous. He's trying to do the whole thing. He's like, they show him the video of the actual, that black and white video that they showed, that's actual footage from an old Olympics. And dude, as soon as everything crashes and everybody leaves, they turn the camera back around and everybody's gone, like, I like that whole thing. And how they got everybody together, that was my favorite first scene.- All right, so that was like a third of the movie. That wasn't one scene.- No, no, no, no. I'm not saying like, it starts off with him jogging and then it ends with them walking with the sled. I'm saying like,- Well, dude, it was like 10 minutes of the movie where he's recruiting people. Yeah, that can't be one scene.- Okay, that's the ninth of the movie. I'm sorry.- Well, it's not one- - The part where they're- What's that part where they're in that room?- Yeah, that's one scene.- That's the part I'm talking about.- Yeah, that's the part I'm talking about.- I also like that scene. I didn't write it down.- But,(laughing)- Oh, that's the part I'm talking about. Where he's like, try to talk about it.- I thought you were talking about like when he went to recruit John Candy at the bar and he was like, "Sweetie, no, no, no, no, no." He's already got John Candy. He's up behind the podium. Yeah, yeah, no, he's like that one thing. He's like doing the thing. John Candy's like, commentating as the video happens. He's like, "Oh, that's gonna hurt." He's like, "Oh, ooh, like one of those, yeah." I don't know how they got that many people in that room to begin with. Do you guys wanna be Bob Sled? And then they show a video and they go,"Is that what a Bob Sled is? I'm outta here." Yeah, I don't wanna do that. Yeah. Yeah, would you do Bob Sled? You're talking about now or like when I'm 20 and I'm a world class sprinter.- How about you not use 20, but not a world class, like actual you at 20?- If I could go to the Olympics, yes.'Cause there's no way--- We should talk about that, remember?- Yeah, yeah, dude, I have, this one my favorite conversation, it's not now 'cause I'm too old, but when I'm, when I was in my 20s, it's like how many people would have to die for me to be like a professional football player? Like how much of the population would have to die off?- We could probably get it down to about 30,000, you'd probably be good.- You would at least be on the field, like holding the orange thing and the sidelines, like the trade-in. - I think we'd have to get it down more to like 600 people before I'm gonna be playing. And even then it's probably gonna be, can I be the holder? I don't want those days are over. But yeah, in my 20s, absolutely, you would not have, I know,'cause you have no ambition whatsoever.- No, I just don't like, I don't want that kind of stuff scares me.(laughs)- They're going like 80 miles an hour, dude. I'm not.(laughs) I would have been trying to do, if we can go to the Olympics, I would have been trying to do like, you show all place, the important thing is your health. Like I would just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, dude, I don't wanna put a helmet on and get in that little bullet-shaped sled and go down that track. I don't wanna. Yeah, yeah. I think that would have been fun, not anymore, but 20 years ago. Sure. Not anymore. My back hurts sitting in this chair, so I'm out. My first scene is when they're doing the bobsled training Jamaica. It's like a 55 gallon drum. It's like kind of sliced right down the middle and unfolded. Yeah. It has like a metal frame with the wheels on the bottom. Yeah. And they just this this movie had not won but two training montages blessings on everyone involved because I love training montage. I didn't pick either montage but the but the Bob sled training like section was just I don't know it's a good starting point because it's just like it's just them falling down the hill a lot while John Candy yells at him. Yeah. They're just- Let's go and down some like, what are the, like a switchback? Like they're just going,- Yeah, like,- Curving down,- Yeah, like,- Curving down,- Yeah,- Car all the way down,- Yeah.- Yeah.- Yeah. So yeah, I liked that one.- Yeah, I did, the classic movie trope of a training montage is fantastic.- It really is. And this one, like, hey, you know what's even better than a training montage?- Two training montages.- Yeah, the second training montage is the one that I put,'Cause I like the first one was good, but the one where they're doing the, like that's my second scene. They're doing the pull ups. And then they pan the camera down and freaking John Candy is picking up whole thing, holding them by the legs. I like that.- Yeah, the second training on Taj is a lot better than the first one.- Better song too.- Yeah.- It is a better song. I didn't put that one on there either. That's your second one.- That is my second one, yes.- Yeah, then they're at the Olympic qualifiers and they're trying to qualify. It's the first time any of them ever seen snow. They're learning how to bobsled. Everyone hates them, everyone's making fun of them.- Yeah. - And they start taking it seriously and they start doing pull ups.- They're jogging in. - They're jogging in.- Yeah, they're all jogging. John Kenny's throwing snowballs at him.- Right.- I like how that's how you can tell the training montage is almost over. He looks at his watch and smiles and he picks up a snowball that he's about to throw and as he's got it back, they start hitting him with the snowball and he's laughing. And I was like, up, the training montage is over. They've reached the pinnacle. They know everything there is to know about Bob's letting in just three months or however long it's been. How long has it been from the time they find John Candy and the thing? Don't they say it? I think I should have wrote that down. It's a sort of twice.- I feel like when they were at the qualifiers and they were doing the second training montage, I feel like that must have only been like a week or two. I don't know how long they trained in Jamaica before they left, maybe a couple months. I don't know.- Can you learn everything you need to know about Bob's letting in a couple of months? I could learn everything I currently know about Bob's letting, which is nothing. I don't know, I don't know what stuff you even need to know about Bob's letting.- Right, yeah, that's the problem is I don't even know the questions to ask to get the information that I don't know.- I had that thought while I was doing my notes, it's like I wonder if people who know a lot about Bob's letting are really mad at this movie?- Oh, no, there are. I found the websites there as they are. They are definitely upset about it.- That's not a steer. Actually, most of the people that were upset- And I say upset, but that might not be the right word, but they were upset because the historical accuracy wasn't as precise as it could have been. They're like, "It was still a good story." I'm like, "Yeah, but this was a very good story." I was happy when it ended, you know what I'm saying?- Yeah, I got to, I mean, I gotta be honest. I wanted to read about the real story. The real, to me, this is actually fairly faithful. They didn't win a medal in this movie. They didn't win a medal for real. They actually did crash. Like I think I'm used some of the footage of the actual footage of the crash and the movie. Like I'm pretty cool about this. Like there are much worse adaptations than this. I don't know why. Yeah. Like it's not it's not purporting to be a documentary who cares who we don't actually show them coming in 26. Like it's this is air quotes inspired by. That's what I'm saying. And for Disney who's like famous for really loosely inspiring like that think we're actually pretty close here. Yeah, Poghands. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Yeah, yeah.- That's a great training montage. I love that scene. My second scene was the Buckingham Palace.- Oh man, yeah, yeah.- Just 'cause I always remember that one. They're in the hotel room and it's Dougie Doug and it's Malikioba and it's Raul Lewis. It's the three of them but not the main, not Leon, the main Bob's like guy.- Yeah, right.- Fricking Dougie Doug is cooking bananas, fried bananas on a hot plate.- Plantains man.- Plantains.- He said bananas.- Oh yeah, he did. And you, Brenna. You, Brenna. Malikioba starts getting into it with Sanka, and he's telling me, you're gonna be, you know, you're gonna go back to the island, you're not gonna have any kind of life for yourself. He's like, I'm gonna win the gold medal, and I know what I want for myself. He's like, I'm gonna live in this house, and he holds up a picture, and Sanka starts just crying out laughing, and he's like, that's Buckingham Palace. You're gonna marry the Queen. And, and you'll burner has no idea that Buckingham Palace is a real place that the Queen of England lives in. And, but I really like that scene because it's the first time that junior kind of like connects with you, you'll burn her. He's, he goes, and he's like, he could be, he could, you know, he doesn't, he didn't have to be a dock worker. He could be, you know, my dad started from nothing and he built up a business.- Right.- He had the second biggest house in Kingston or whatever it was, yeah.- Yeah, and Sanca's like, he's like,"Well, he's not shit, dad." He's like, "He doesn't have to be. He just needs to be, She says to be himself and he's like, and he takes his picture and like smooths it out and he goes, you go get your palace, you old Brenna.- Yeah.- I like that scene.- Dude, something about Junior, I don't know what it is the way he looks. It makes me want to watch him.- Yeah.- I don't know what that means, but you know what I'm saying? Like I was interested in how he portrayed that character. I liked it a lot.- Yeah, me too, man. I got him in my character's role, Lewis. Like I really like how he played Junior and I got a little bit info about him when we get to that point.- Nice, nice. All right, so my third one is the final race, the climax of the movie.- Yeah.- It's the final Bob's race at the Winter Olympics. Super emotional, it's super like fast paced.- And they crash.- Yeah, they don't make it all the way to the end or they do make it all the way to the end, just not in the Bob's lead. It's portrayed in the movie that there's some kind of faulty something like a mechanical failure.- Yes, sort of a mechanical thing.- Or little ice skates comes off.- Right, right. I mean, that's not exactly what happened. They think it was something else just going too fast.- No, I think in the real story they said, it was just like the driver error. Like he took a turn wrong and he just like turned his sled over.- Right, right. He was just going too fast and didn't control it. And that comes with learning it, everything you need to know about Bob's sledding in three months. So, they pick, then they're picking it up and they're walking with the Bob sled. And like you, Brenners in the front with Darius and the people are like looking at him and also saying stuff and he's carrying it and looking down at him. And then they all start doing the slow clap and then everybody's like, all right, these guys are cool, I'm glad they won. Everybody's hugging everybody else and taking pictures and John Candy's frigging do laps or just flapping in the breeze. Dude, I had no idea. I could see how you could have a heart attack right after this movie. I don't know why I couldn't see anything, but it's like neck fat. But every time he was talking, I was just like, it's almost like distracting.- Yeah, he is more chins than a Chinese food book. He, I'm really glad to live in the era where Beards are appropriate because that hides a lot of my extra chins. And that one I've seen John Cainy was like, man, he really could have used a giant beard. He used to have a beard right at the end. but the movie he died during was like Wagon's East or something, it was a Western, I think he was.- Right, right.- But yeah, you can definitely see that he's headed for a heart attack at each 43.- Yeah, it's this movie.- And honestly, even in Uncle Buck, which we did on Patreon for 1989, it's just, you know, man, he's begging every meal. He just can't do that.- Yeah, big Canadian bacon. But I do that, I like that whole scene and you're right. It got me right at the end and I knew it was coming and I still was like, oh yeah,- Oh, that feels good. I like that.- I was surprised by how completely I bought into the emotional moment there. I was like, "That shit totally worked, even though it's seen in a million times." And I'm watching it while taking notes, so it's not like I'm really like consuming it.- Into it.- Right.- Like a regular person would be.- I think it's the acting man. They did a great job.- It's good acting. It's good direction. It's good, I mean, it's a good score. But yeah, man, the race, do they crash? They're like lay in there. It's like, "Daris, she dead."- No, man. - Yeah.- And he's like, but he's like,- And that's the change from how he, that's the change.- He's like,"Sanka, you dead?"- Yeah, man. - Yeah.- And he enter, he's like, it's like, but I gotta finish. And they all climb out of there and they pick the sled up and they carry it. It kind of reminds me of Taladega Knights when he gets out of the car and he's racing, Sasha Barron Cohen and they're just sprinting down the thing and they dive and the announcers are like, it's totally illegal. If you get out of the car, you're just qualified. but it still works for me.- It definitely does. Just for giggles, I looked up just now,'cause you were talking about picking it up. A two person sled weighs 462 pounds and a four person sled, which they were in, is 1389 pounds.- That's a lot.- That's a lot of pounds for four people. That's still a lot.- Yeah, dude, that's like 350 pounds of peace. I feel sure they're not carrying that on one shoulder.- Yeah, he was carrying it with one hand.- Yeah, they all except for Dougie Douglass, they're in a lot better shape than I am, but I don't think they could do that. But still, I appreciate that.- Yeah, yeah, they were doing it. Maybe it's not as heavy because they didn't cheat and have the weights in the front.- Yeah, he and Heavy, he's my brother. Yeah, now I liked the, who are the frickin', who are the like villains in this? It's like Norway or something?- No, it was Germany, Russia? Not Russia. It wasn't the USSR, they were in there.- They were, but they weren't the villains. and they had no speaking. But yeah, but even they, I thought it was like, they were Scandinavian or something.- Maybe they were-- - East German.- East German. - East German. His name was Joseph, Yosef Grool.- Grool.- But yeah, but then they start slow clapping, and then they're hugging them and like,"See you in 40 years, Jamaica."- Yeah, that's awesome.- I got that one too, that's a great scene.- That's a great scene.- That was my third best scene.- Nice, let's do quotes. Not heavy, not a heavy quote section for me.- No, yeah, for me either. I was kinda like when we did a Harry Met Sally when Harry Met Sally on Patreon had like six quotes from that one.- Yeah, I could say, if I could let my quotes roll over, my blanks roll over, I feel confident I can use them on demolition, man.- Oh, dude, me too.(laughing) First best quote.- John Spotton, you find one credit for the violation of the film, right? This statute.- Yeah, that dude we're getting back to that. I can tell it's coming. All right, first best quote. Feel the rhythm, feel the rhyme. Get on up, it's Bob's lead time. Nice. I suck at Jamaican accents. I think people appreciate that we're trying it though. Yeah, I'll accept the Jamaican people who are like, Jamaican me crazy with this. I don't think our podcast has made it to Jamaica just yet. So that's probably good. If anybody knows anybody, Jamaica, send this to them. So that's the chance that they would do instead of counting in German or Swiss or whatever they were counting in. Yeah. Before there's no Swiss, by the way. Yeah, yeah, you know what I mean? Like what the Swiss team was doing. They, to like, psych themselves up right before they take off and start running down the track. And I liked it. And Dougie Doug yells it and everybody chimes in with it. I liked it. Yeah, I was thinking that if I had to push a 1300 pound sled, I wouldn't want to be the one who had to also do all the chanting'cause it seems like that would make it harder to run. Yeah, also they were, I was thinking about that. They were like screaming while they were running, but everything was doing that.- Yeah, yeah. I can't even talk and walk upstairs at the same time. So I don't wanna run and scream at the same time. But that's my first one.- Yeah, that's a great quote. They're doing the qualifying and they're copying the Swiss team'cause the Swiss team is great and they're doing I ain't swine, swine. And they're counting in German and then they dug a dog's like, we gotta be Jamaican. We gotta go out there and do our thing. I'm not trying to be Swiss. I'm tired of hearing about the Swiss.- Right.- And so we do that thing that you're saying. That's a good quote. - Kiss the egg.- Kiss the egg.- Kiss the egg. I'm not kissing the egg.- Where's he kissing the egg?- In his pants?- Yeah, yeah.- In the front.- Yes.- By his junk?- Yes.- By his wae-mus.- This wae-mus. Shaving his wae-mus.(laughs) It's my job, Pablo. Take it seriously.- Okay, so my first one is--- My first one is--- My first one is Zanga. You're dead?- Yeah, man.- Yeah, man.- Every time they crash,- Chris asks, "Sanka, you dead?" And he always goes, "Yeah, man."- Yeah, I like the very first time he does it too,'cause it's right after Sankas, like Derby Cart or whatever. - Push Cart.- Yeah, it's Push Cart rolls off the side and then hits that building. And he like sticks up his head and he's like,"Yeah, man." I was like, "Oh yeah, I remember they do this every time."(laughing)- Yeah, man, I appreciate a call back.- Yeah, and how they change it at the end. That's how you knew it was gonna be different. I liked it.- My second one is, I see pride, I see power, I see the bad ass mother who don't take crap now.- No body.- You have to do it how he does it.- No, I'm not.- I'm not gonna do it.- I see pride, I see power, I see a bad mother who don't take no crap off no one. I just like how he says mother with a D.- I know, mother.- Mother. - The great.- Yeah.- Love that.- And your brother is hyping up Junior, he's teaching him how to not be a spoiled rich kid and how to stand up yourself. Right. And after he actually stands up to his dad, and then he turned at the elevator, you know, and he turns around and you'll have been standing in the hallway. And he's like, one badass mother. I was like, yeah, yeah, he is. That's awesome. I know. That's what I want to be a bad ass mother. That's a great arc. Those two, like they don't like each other because Junior trips someone or doing the Olympic trials. First of all, this is why trying to train for the Olympics is stupid because they train for four years to get to the Olympic qualifiers. And if you fall down, then you just can't go for four more years, that's done.- Right, it's all done.- Yeah, that never happens when you're recording a podcast. If we mess it up, we just do it again.- Right, right, let it ride again. That's my second quote.- What's your second quote?- My second quote is another one that I've also already said, which is, "You go get your palace."- You said it angry that time.- I know, I know. It wasn't a great read by me. He, I read some articles about,'cause it's 30th anniversary obviously. And one of them was an interview with Raul Lewis, who said that line and the interviewer was like, is it that, like people, like I remember that line, people say that line. Like I think about that line. Like you go get your palace. Yeah. We're talking about like that line having landed with it like with people and they've kind of like carried it through us like this is a motivational for me. Yeah. I do, that guy was good. I liked him. Yeah. face makes me want to keep watching it, which I think is what you want if you're an actor. Absolutely. I couldn't find the last one. I don't know. I just yelled like when they yelled cool runnings, the title. That's what I put for my third one. I didn't really have a third one. Yeah, I didn't have a third one either and I did kind of what you did and just put in like, it's not a quote really, but it's the song that that song says that people say you know we can't believe Jimmy. Yeah, we have a Bob Sled team. And Malik Yoba who plays you old Brenner wrote that song like before the audition. That was close. Yeah, yeah. That's awesome. And Dougie Dougie is singing that on the street corner trying to raise money to go Bob's letting in. Someone's like, I'll give you a dollar to stop singing. Yeah. Here's the dollar. Put your clothes back on. Yeah. Dude, those are not very quote heavy. You're right. No, no. But still, still has some quotes. Yeah. Let's do characters. Who's your first character?- Here's characters, John Candy, coach,- I'm Blitzer.- Irv, he gets in trouble for waiting his Bob sled back when he's an actual athlete. And he retires to Jamaica where he ends up.- Yeah, I think he was, I feel like he was a coach.- Oh, I thought he was an athlete.- No, I thought he was, I think he's a coach. I don't know, maybe it didn't say.- I don't know.- He's cheating, he's adding weight to this sled.- Yeah, you can totally wait the front of the sled up to a certain point.- But he added more weights I'm guessing.- Ah, yeah, I guess. Maybe he was not a coach and he was the athlete.- That's what he said.- That's what he added.- If he had the weight to himself, is he still cheating?- Yeah, I just, I'm never gonna not like John Candy.- Yeah.- I mean, this is the last movie that we're gonna do of his so like on the main feed.- Yeah, yeah, we'll do some patience.- We'll do some things for us to stuff. last movie that he releases. So chronologically in the main feed, we're kind of done with John Candy, which sucks because he's, yeah, because he's one of my faves. He's my first character too. He really wanted to do this movie. The director didn't want him. The director and Disney both wanted Kurt Russell shout out. Okay. And the director was like, this is the first look looks like. Well, the director's like Kurt Russell looks like he could have been an Olympian. John Candy does not look like that. Right. But then Disney said, like, John Candy wants to do it. He's taken a pay cut. He really wants the role. He's like, that's your guy figured out. And the dude, he's like, all right, I love John Candy. That's great. Yeah. And then he said, he was great, but they wanted to give it to Kurt Russell. John Candy really wanted to do it, took a pay cut, and it was great. I, Disney really likes them some Kurt Russell. They use them in everything. Fox on the hand all the way through. Yeah, John Candy's my first. Who's your second? My second is Leon is Dres Banach. Dres. Dude, I can't not say his name like that. Also, every time I see Leon, sometimes it'll just say Leon. And sometimes it'll say just Leon. Like the actual word just before Leon.- Well, his name is Leon Robinson. He's credited a lot of stuff as Leon. And like his social media handles are just Leon. So I feel like he's just saying like, don't use my full name, I'm just a one name person. Just Leon.- Right, right. That's my guess.- Yeah, that's a good call. Yeah, we just saw him in Cliffhanger, that's for our last episode on the main theme. He's much better in this movie than he was in that one. Yeah. He was attached to this script for like three years. This was originally gonna be like a sports drama with different directors, different writers. And they kept kind of tweaking it to figure out what it was gonna be. And but they, he stayed attached the entire way. Yeah. He's just really good in this role, man. He, like I like the character. He's really, he plays him like really earnest. Right. And I'm doing give up and all that yeah. Yeah. Well, in Darius like not only drives the Bob sled, but he also drives the plot. He's the one who's like, we'll raise the money. He's like, I'll get the people together. He convinces John can he to be the coach like he does at all. Everybody in the town where he practices running and the beginning loves him, you know, I'm saying like his dad was an Olympic athlete. So he was trying to just always determined optimistic stuff like that. Just like a good character. He was my second character as well. Nice. But I know you have a different third character. My third is Raw Lewis, a junior. Yeah. Yeah. I didn't put him on there. And the more I think about it, the more I should have. Because again, dude, something about him makes me want to keep watching him. I don't know. I really liked his performance. I liked junior. Raw Lewis was a casting assistant. He was reading lines with the actors during the casting. Yeah. And they kept telling him like, he was an actor, but they're like, you're not going to be in this movie, we want big names. But then they just said like, he kept reading with people for junior and he was better than all of them. And eventually they're just like, well, let's just screen test him and then they cast him. But he's just, yeah, he's so good. He plays like really like kind of, it's like kind of understated. Like he's doing the thing where he's like talking to his like floppy eared, hound dog, like it's his dad. Right. up to him. He's not going to take the banking job. He's going to be the, like, not going to do. Yeah. And his dad comes so many freaking totally caves. He's, I don't know, man. He just did a really good job. And I like, like his art, but I like a lot of the choices he made as junior. He, yeah. Did he was fun to watch? And he pulled off the, I'm a spoiled rich boy that's turning it around. He pulled that off. The person I picked for my third one his sonka, sonka coffee. Yeah. Dougie Dougie. Did he just freaking laid back? He's the break man. He's the, he's got the one liners. He's got all the catchy things. He's the comic relief. He's, he's got a stupid name named after, do you know what sonka, sonka coffee is? No. Oh, my grandma, my grandma used to drink it. It's like a instant, it's decaffeinated, but it's like an instant coffee. The kind where you just like put the powder in the cup and eat the water, like put hot water in it and stir it up, and it's decaffeinated. So you get the flavor of coffee without any of the fun stuff.- That's cool. You get all the worst parts of the coffee with none of the best parts.- Right, but she loved it. And I can remember, I can't even see the freaking glass jar with the orange label, Sanka. But he's my third, 'cause my kids loved him. They made me like it when I watched him with him.- He's really good. like his comic stuff is really meant for kids, but it totally still works clearly.- Yeah.- Also, I just, I really appreciate,'cause these guys are all pretty young, the actors and also the characters. And I liked that Sanka, he knew exactly who he was.- Right.- Like throughout the, like it was clear through the portrayal, like he's just, like he's freaking flying, flying plantains and Calgary on a hot plate. Like he's calling everyone a rostoman, and he's like, I'm going right back to Jamaica once the Olympics are done, like I don't care if I ever leave. Like, I just, like, I think that's cool.- Yeah, yeah. Dude, he played the character well. And I'm telling you, watching it with a kid who laughs at all of those silly jokes really makes you appreciate what he did.- Yeah. - 'Cause you gotta be, you gotta act like a clown to get those gonna laughs. And he did that.- Yeah. Yeah, he's definitely in the comic relief and he was excellent at that.- Yeah.- Yeah, good, good for choices for us.- Yeah, I think we've already talked about the other stuff, like John Turtletop, the director, three Niggas, Phenomenon, National Treasure.- Yeah.- We'll definitely do some more.- Yeah, Phenomenon.- We'll not do that, I'm not doing the Mac, but I'll definitely do Phenomenon National Treasure at some of the other stuff.- I love Phenomenon back in the Phenomenon.- Phenomenon's great. I think that's '96. I'm very much looking forward to doing that one.- Yeah, yeah.- And then Hans Zimmer did the score. The score is, I mean, I would not have guessed Hans Zimmer's'cause I didn't think that they could get a name that big to a movie like this, but.- I was throughout, I was like,"Right now, this is a good score."- Yeah, also the guy who, Tommy Swardlow?- Swardlow. - Swardlow. Did the screenplay, dude, he did Little Giants and-- - And Spaceballs.- Yeah, he was-- - I think he was--- I think he was there in Spaceballs.- Yeah, I was gonna say, I think he did some acting too. Like in real genius back in the gap, I remembered him in that Santa's picture. But dude, writing Little Giants right after this next year, I like Little Giants.- Nice. - My kids watch Little Giants, we should definitely do that one maybe.- We live in the 90s for this a little bit. We haven't like,- I know there's so many movies.- It's definitely in consideration. 94 is a pretty freaking massive. I think that's the start of Jim Carey.- Yeah.- I have some hard decisions ahead of us the next couple of years.- Dude, that's what I'm trying to say. Like I don't know how we start narrowing them down. When we get to the point where you and I were like really into movies and we're going to the show, we're like at least I was going to the show a lot. You know me? I was seeing a lot of movies. I don't know how I'm gonna narrow them down.- Yeah, man, I don't either. I mean, it's a good problem to have right now. I'm trying to do episodes about movies we don't really care about.- Yeah.- All right, here we are doing Bushwack. Welcome.- Yeah.- This is a movie. It happens three out of 10. Are we done?- Yeah. Did you have any other good? I had a couple of things.- I didn't, go ahead.- Actual television footage from ABC from the 88 Winter Olympics were used and edited into the movie, thought that was cool. When Disney envisioned the cast, they wanted, did you see who they wanted? Dinsel as Derees, any Murphy Asaka. Wesley Snipes as you'll Brenna. Marlon Wayne's as junior and still John Candy, they said as Irving Blitzer. That would have been a completely different movie, but I think I would have liked to watch that one.- Yeah, dude, I saw a Cuban-goody junior, Jeffrey Wright, Eric LaSalle.- Yeah, they clearly were trying, but the funny things they tried to make this movie for like $11, like they made it for, I think 17 million and they were trying to spend 14 million. The director was saying like, we had to spread out, you know, bats of cotton on the ground,'cause the snow would melt, we didn't have the budget for special effects. So how would they get freaking Eddie Murphy and all those other people in this movie?- That's why they didn't, I guess, huh? They said we could pay you $11 and they said, here, no.- Yeah, pass.- Yes, yeah.- Oh, and one last thing, Dereespanic says he runs a 100 meter dash in 9.9 seconds. Carl Lewis won the 88 Olympics with a 9.92. So that was pretty close for the time.- I think at that point, we can all just agree that they're very fast.- Yeah, way, way fast. I think the record didn't, it was saying both didn't like 9.58. So that's pretty fast. A hundred meters is really, my eyes don't even see a hundred meters away. So yeah, let me ask you a real question. Do you think you could do a hundred meters sprint and less and under 20 seconds?- Not a chance.- Are you kidding me?- I don't think I could either.- 20 seconds is not even, you telling me I'm Usain Bolt is only twice as fast as me?- I know, it doesn't seem like enough. It doesn't seem like enough more fast than you.(laughing)- Yeah, that's like, if I'm gonna arrive with both hamstrings intact, there's no way I can break the 22nd mark.- Dude, this is what I'll tell you. You say not that we need to add more length to this race that I'm running. But if you give me 120 meters and I start running and he gets to start at the same time as I pass him at full speed, he's still more than two times faster than me. It's not even like, oh, he just has a good start. No, that's not it. He's way way faster. Like he's running, what is it? Like 25 miles an hour? Like, yeah, he's ridiculously fast. Dude, don't you know like the cop car that sits on the side of the road with the speedometer on the back that shows you how fast you're going. Johnny and I have pictures of us running next to it. Back when we were in shape, and I'm running like full speed and it says 15, so I know that's not. You know what I'm saying?- I'm just trying to think like when I was in now. Like a couple of years ago, I was in pretty comparable shape to the shape I'm in now. I could run an eight minute mile. I couldn't do a bunch of them, but I got in the shape, I could do like one. And that's like--- But this is only 100 meters.- And so that's two minutes for a quarter of a mile, which is about 400 meters.- Right.- So that's about 30 seconds for 100 meters, but that's at my mile pace. I'm like, could I go from 30 to 20 if I'm sprinting? Like I probably could. I don't know, Roger's gonna text me when he hears this'cause he still runs all the time and tell us that he can still do it in 13 seconds or whatever, but I think 21 is very fair for me in you.- Dude, I couldn't freaking fall down a hill that fast. Like that, it's fast, that's way fast.- I kind of feel like at this point that, like the footage of Rich Eisen running against people with at the 40 yard dash, I feel like I would be behind Rich Eisen.- Yeah, yeah, yeah.- Like in a suit jacket.- I'm trying to picture me bending over and trying to get my feet in the blocks, just to start it off.- I don't think you're gonna, we're not gonna go out of a three point stance. We're just gonna kind of, we're just gonna kind of just,- Wait a second, you're telling me I have to hold my weight up on my fingers?- Mount. Posture fee, M-O-U-T, Mount.- So you think if, could both of your kids beat you in a hundred meter sprint right now.- No, I got them.- Okay.- Wait, do I get to push him as I'm running past him?- Like junior trip-o-- Yeah, do I get to trip him? Dude, I don't know, Jake's pretty quick now. He's still a very large fella. He and he's dense like a dying star.- But, yes, but he's young, he's got cartilage.- Yeah, he's 11 and his knees aren't powder. So, he's got it. He's got it.- All right, let's go to the worst.- Worst.- I didn't have any.- Yeah, only thing.- Yeah, it's silly.- The only thing I was gonna say is there were some stereotypes that were used for comedic effect about Jamaican people. But other than that, dude, I think it's totally fine. There's nothing really bad. Did you have the tobacco warning in the beginning?- Yeah, I did. It's on Disney+ and they definitely give you a tobacco warning.- Yeah.- I saw that too, but that's on the camera.- It's on the camera. - It smokes a pipe or something. Also, the original 1992 Aladdin gives you a tobacco warning. So like, what were they smoking? I don't know, the lamp. I don't know. They're throwing it on there though. So what I'm saying is like Disney's pretty fast and loose with the tobacco warnings these days. Yeah, yeah. I just saw all the East German people were smoking cigarettes when they were walking up. That's I think what that was for. But other than that, I got no worst. Five questions. Is it okay for kids? Oh yeah, my freaking kids loved it. Yeah. Yeah, you're six year old totally out in. And 11 both laughed out loud.- This is a perfect kids movie, perfect family movie.- It is, it totally is.- What do you get made if it were pitched now?- I don't know, dude, something about this, so this is a very formulaic, is that the right word, plot?- Yeah.- It's where it's like, you know, it's the underdog, and they gotta, it's the same structure. But if you change the sport, I'm sure you could still make it, right? Like what's the sport that, why can't you do it for Bob's sled?- I don't know, nobody knows what the friggin' Bob's sled is. But, and like 1993, everyone was like,- Yeah, everybody was watching the Olympics. There was only four channels.- Yeah, yeah, you might be right. I don't think more people understood it back then than they do now.- Yeah.- Maybe I don't know.- Yeah.- I don't know the answer, dude.- I think you could remake this. It's not that expensive. I don't know if anyone will watch it, but if you don't spend a bunch of money on it, it doesn't really matter.(laughs)- You're right. Maybe make it a romantic comedy, since nobody's gonna watch that.- Yeah, dude, make it, yeah. put a love interest in there. I don't care. Make it a mixed gender Bob Sled team. I don't care. Make it the cutting edge, put off Bob Sled. They made like six cutting edge movies. The cutting edge of Bob Sled.(laughs) I'll have AI write that on your desk tomorrow morning. All right. Movie or TV show, it seems like your way. It's totally, it's a textbook, like, formula sports comedy thing. Yeah, just turn that out. Right. Did you have any recasting? I couldn't like the original one with Denzel and Eddie Murphy and Wesley Snipes and Marlon Wayans. Can we have that? Not now. Not now, for two old, but you know. Yeah. I got no, I didn't recast it. No. Yeah, I didn't have anything either. Can you still watch and enjoy this in 2023? Yeah. Absolutely. It was killing. Still really good. Yeah, it was fantastic. It's on Disney Plus. That's where I watched it. It is on Disney Plus. I think it's actually, it's like on YouTube."Yeah, I just watched it on Disney Plus."- Yeah, I think every other place, you gotta be like pay for it. You know what I'm saying? - Yeah.- The $3.99. But Disney Plus, you pay them that every month and they give it to you for free.- Reyes.- For free after you pay them every month.- Right. What's next? - Yes.- Next up, Demolition Man.- Oh my God. I probably haven't seen that in 10 years. I'm so excited.- It might have been 10 years for me too, but it's I love Demolition Man. I cannot wait to watch it.- This is the thing though. So I hadn't seen cool runnings in a while, maybe 10 years, maybe longer. I can vividly remember parts of a demolition man way easier. Like I can picture scenes and picture shots. Like I can, it's gonna be good, I can't wait. I'm gonna have to find a time where nobody's at my house. So I crank up the surround sound and really do it.- Turn it all the way up.- Yeah.- Well you can, I mean, CC probably can't watch that, but Jake can probably watch demolition man, no? It's too violent.- I don't, it's not the violence, I don't know. I don't know what, I don't know. I probably have to watch it through one time. In there's some boobs in it too, like I don't know if he's right.- Well, there's the, remember they do this sex scene where they wear the helmets and they do it virtually?- Yeah, okay.- But there's a show in the show.- There's a show in the boobs.- I don't know, I think they do. I don't know. Well, I'll have to watch.- We'll figure that out.
