Pat: Kind of like the guest today because this is you brought Superbad to the table and you've been.
Ash: Oh did I do okay I guess I did but we've all been talking about.
Sam: You been begging through text like 20 times.
Pat: You have mentioned this so many times you have mentioned it so many times in chat and there's group text like I would assume about I want to do Superbad so.
Ash: I thought Sam did too.
Ash: I did say that this is something that came out of my mouth.
Pat: I'm bringing this up because again so Brett and Sam I do about you too I assumed it was because Ash was a huge fan of the movie.
Pat: Before recording were talking and I'm going to read this text Ashley.
Ash: Because Pat was like ash host and I was like what.
Pat: Yeah yeah I'm not sure I'm the Best Host I've only seen it once and to be honest hated it low but I'm a bigger fan of Judd Apatow now so I think I'd like to know I'm like what wait a minute what.
Bret: Goodness goodness.
Ash: I did the thing that the guests do sometimes were they bring the movie that they hate it but it's part of the experiment I okay do I need to decide myself now is that what's happening.
Pat: I actually curious like why cuz I can't think of a movie that I've seen one time did not care for I'm trying to think it since you sent that text Matt Ryan think is there a movie I saw once didn't like but would be interested in revisiting.
Bret: I can't think of a movie that I didn't like that I would be so excited to pitch over and over again for the show for like months.
Ash: I swear to God Samoset it to I swear to God the same as also said can we do Superbad I'm not alone anyway yeah.
Sam: I've got against doing it but.
Ash: Oh okay well I'm sorry I thought I was.
Sam: It's not it's not fit on the top of my list to re-watch for this I mean I think mine was stepbrothers I think that's where the confusion is.
Ash: Step Brothers super good too.
Sam: Step Brothers.
Ash: Well s*** I'm sorry I thought I was also speaking for you.
Bret: I seen all those once.
Sam: Did Judd Apatow do Role Models is super underrated.
Ash: I don't think so.
Pat: 2 pointed.
Sam: Probably.
Ash: Auburn.
Pat: Oh by the way I did do a little search cuz you can search for phrases in like your text threads Superbad was suggested three times in a group chat by Ash every single time.
Ash: Of course.
Sam: This is hilarious.
Bret: Role Models was not appetite.
Pat: Are those Judd Apatow.
Ash: I will say the one Judd Apatow movie that I have watched multiple times oh wait no there's two okay number one is Pineapple Express because I fucken love that movie also stepbrothers is amazing and finally he produce them finally of course heavyweights hello yes please yes please.
Pat: Weight bench.
Pat: Okay.
Pat: I didn't think of it as like a jet Avatar movie at you know I like the Seth Rogen.
Ash: Right I don't think he wrote it you didn't write it but he's like a producer on it right.
Pat: No it was it was Seth Rogen wrote this I knew that.
Ash: Yeah.
Bret: He is a producer or if there was a writer it cuz it seems like early early trivia a lot of this is Improv.
Ash: Okay so here's the thing here's my history with this movie is I remember and what what when did this come out because I had a different like.
Pat: Oh my God.
Sam: I was going to guess that year they year I graduate.
Ash: Oh really okay 2007.
Pat: Movies 14 years old.
Ash: Charmin.
Ash: Superbad okay 2007 okay cool cuz I had a memory of it coming out around then and and I was like I think I ask Google and it told me 2012 which is like not right okay so.
Ash: I remember when this movie came out and I was like not into Stoner humor and I was not a stoner like I didn't do drugs in high school and I was not really into the that sort of humor like I didn't like Dude Where's My Car or like any of that sort of thing not that this is like on the level of Dude Where's My Car but anyway I just wasn't into Stoner humor and so I remember this movie came out and I saw it and I just hated it because I wasn't into that type of humor but now I appreciate that humor now that I have smoked weed in my life and so I feel like if I watched again I would really like it but I was kind of like high school but I feel like I was kind of a prude in high school maybe a little bit.
Bret: About prude but light.
Bret: One of the kids doing cocaine off of their desk.
Pat: Okay so a square a Total Lean Square yet.
Ash: I was not well I was drinking alcohol but I wasn't yeah I wasn't doing drugs so.
Sam: I was the square and we all know that's true.
Ash: Yeah Sam was the square.
Ash: Oh why thank you.
Sam: I was going to say I was like I don't think you were at all but also my point of reference is skewed.
Ash: So yeah so I just I just wasn't into that type of humor I guess like like crude lewd humor was not my thing.
Ash: And so I feel like I would appreciate it more now maybe I don't know I'm really interested to find out guy.
Ash: Right yeah.
Bret: There's a commitment to the line before I find the loot hilarious like light if you know if you have you made an entire movie that ended like climatically with like it was a fart joke I would bust up laughing because that's like you worked really hard for that one but like whenever it looks like it's like I think that's going to maybe get on my nerves a little bit.
Ash: Is this the new one time at band camp what time shopping at cars Target.
Sam: It's just it's just missed because one time he was shopping in Target.
Bret: No smell can cats walk by one of them.
Sam: That started Fred's hatred of Seth Rogen.
Sam: Hate that guy.
Ash: Prices to get Zach Galifianakis all the time to like to the point that somebody stopped us and asked for a photo with him.
Bret: Bryce doesn't look anything like that.
Pat: I don't believe anything.
Ash: Funny about it.
Bret: Nor do I look anything like Seth.
Ash: No you really don't.
Ash: Maybe people who have like pores facial reasoning I don't know.
Sam: Like say it eight-year-old boy.
Pat: Facial blindness.
Ash: Yeah exactly.
Ash: That's my and I guess I watch I watch the Jed Apatow masterclass which I highly recommend especially if you were commandeered totally check it out one of the best masterclasses I've watched and I was like oh I really want to watch the rest of his movies and I keep being like let's watch Superbad and then we should do it for the podcast and then I guess I like rewrote in my brain but Sam had also asked for it when she had and so I was like yeah everyone.
Sam: I'm not against it I've totally for this but I've totally glad you rewrote it in my head and fired because I'm super stoked to re-watch this movie.
Ash: Super good.
Pat: Masterclass is one of those things where I have a list of ones that I'm never going to watch but I keep fooling myself into thinking that I'm going to watch I've never watched one but I keep meaning to and I've got an ever-expanding list it's never going to happen.
Ash: I believe it I never do either.
Pat: It's like we know you better.
Sam: What's a funny fact so you're not the only one whose watchlist never gets watched did you know that Netflix did a study on people and their my list and nobody ever watches what's on their list to watch it's that's that's why they removed it from the home screen and they just have like suggestions stuff and then like you know continue watching.
Bret: The my list is the best way to know what they need to remove from the platform.
Sam: Yeah exactly.
Pat: Local Insurance also for like I feel like this is important this is an important documentary I should watch this or this is a powerful film about struggle I should watch this yeah I'll just watch good place again.
Ash: Right totally totally I'm always like I'm just not in the mood for that though like still have never seen Hurt Locker because I don't feel like being depressed.
Bret: Depressing in Skyrim.
Sam: It is depressing.
Sam: Salt Lake Schindler's List.
Bret: Depressing but it's not like.

Sam: I don't remember that great.
Pat: Any fun fact about Superbad.
Bret: Let's watch the movie.
Pat: I can't believe how old this movie is I am going to cry into my Walker I'm too old.
Ash: The weird part is I could have sworn this movie came out when I was in high school but I wasn't I must have been in my first year of college.
Bret: I believe that the hype for this movie started when we were either just in high school or just graduated one of my trivia facts is that it was hyped so much that before it came out they advertised movies that came out as produced by before this came out.
Ash: No.
Sam: Was this his next film after heavy weights.
Ash: No.
Sam: Pixel.
Bret: No but he wasn't he wasn't like the name until after this.
Bret: Before 8 before this came out the hype was so intense about the trailer of they had out that they were able to advertise other movies.
Bret: The guy that made the trailer that you watch.
Bret: Yes that is true.
Pat: For me I remember being the whole thing thing being that Seth Rogen wrote it with Evan Goldberg is riding partner but like.
Ash: Anchorman.
Ash: 40 year old version Talladega Nights Knocked Up Superbad.
Bret: Grief.
Ash: But knocked-up wasn't the same mirror so it was probably happening but like yeah I mean he did he did make some pretty and I mean I think the thing that really put him on the map was probably Freaks and Geeks.
Ash: But he worked on the lair Larry Sanders show and the Ben Stiller show before that but I think yeah I think the thing that initially put them on the map was Freaks and Geeks.
Ash: And then you know.
Bret: Ben Stiller show keeps popping up in our champions.
Pat: Ty baby has thoughts.
Ash: I hate Ben Stiller.
Sam: Sorry guys he doesn't feel good in this is some noise he makes constantly.
Bret: Shaking but like in a gentle way.
Ash: Shake the baby okay.

Sam: First movie oh yeah She's The Hot Chick.
Bret: My my phone autocorrected to Jolo.
Bret: And there are other names and faces that you will recognize but if I said their names you wouldn't know who they are but there's there's a bunch of people in this that I have been in a bunch of other I think you know.
Ash: I'm looking at the IMDb thing is is Dave Franco the other Franco's brother or he is yeah.
Pat: Jim's brother it's a super small party like really small party.
Bret: Okay so if I find well before we get into the other factoids to play the money game.
Pat: Yeah.
Bret: Number because.
Ash: 50 million.
Ash: 50 50 50.
Sam: I was going to guess a hundred a hundred Mill is that crazy is that is that my animation brain that's my.
Sam: Okay okay.

Pat: I'm going to say 40.
Sam: I'm going to say 66.
Bret: Adidas 420.
Sam: Holy crap.
Ash: S*** s***.
Pat: Win by default are they really think it's 32 think I'm 30 but Ashton same you pulled me you like you pulled me up words because you're.
Ash: Sorry damn.
Bret: It cost nowadays minimum like 20 million dollars that's just throw that into the wind.
Sam: It's just the cost of your insurance.
Pat: I mean.
Ash: That's crazy.
Ash: No there's no effects and it's pretty yeah.
Ash: Yeah it's pretty low I'm curious if the kids were 18 or not during shooting cuz I would complicate things as well.
Sam: I thought they were but only just.
Ash: Oh interesting.
Bret: There's at least one scene that the MPAA with like you can't even film that.
Ash: But they did.
Bret: They had that they had to fight for their the acceptability.
Ash: Wow.

Ash: Does it involve smoking weed I'm assuming.
Bret: It involves the at the scene with the penis drawings.
Ash: I don't remember that.
Sam: I do not remember that scene I'm looking forward to it.
Pat: They're all like Elementary school-aged at that time or only kids.
Ash: Oh oh no no no love it.
Sam: Worldwide.
Bret: Okay how much money how much money do you think this made worldwide keeping in mind that they pretty much let Judd Apatow and Seth Rogen do whatever they wanted after this.
Ash: Google question.
Sam: When when did it come out in the year was it a beginning of the year end of the year.
Sam: Cuz I feel like those holiday movies always do gangbusters because kids are off school.

Ash: I'm going to guess.
Sam: My brain is not working today.
Pat: I feel like we're in the middle of it how much.

Sam: I was going to revise to 120 but I don't want to.
Pat: 300 million I was like they were there to be a hole Superbad extended universe.

Ash: Yeah ride at Universal Studios man.
Bret: The answer is 300 most of the way to 270 million.
Ash: Holy f******.
Sam: I win by default.
Ash: Is that one of the like most successful films in history if you just count like the amount of times they made back their budget that's crazy that is huge.
Bret: Huge 150 million profit on.
Ash: 150 is that what you said.
Bret: Justin Stoney cuz it was 20 ml to make.
Ash: They made 7. 5 times their budget.
Ash: That's amazing.
Sam: That is why they let those to do whatever they wanted after.
Ash: Yes correct okay Pat take note.

Ash: Oh okay I got you.
Bret: Evan Goldberg's brother Goldberg and Seth Rogen were friends since high school and they started writing this movie in high school.
Ash: Wow okay.
Ash: We could have done something with our Lives cast.
Bret: I just can't believe a thousand pictures drawn and they had because there's children in the dealing with the dick pictures could be.
Ash: Oh my God.
Ash: I love that.
Ash: They're dying laughing.
Pat: I wish that conversation was recorded and you know that they are you know like Seth 11 or just like I can't believe this is our life right now that these like stuffy old white people are like arguing how how many veins can be in this dick.
Ash: I mean wait but really quick how many veins are too much because.
Ash: I feel like once enough right.
Sam: Yeah I feel like any anything over 0 is too much.
Pat: Text Manju said if it's on that road you're not that looks like a roadmap I'm kidding I'm kidding I'm kidding that's not.

Ash: How many veins does it take to get to the center of a dick.
Bret: The word f*** is used a hundred and Seventy-Six times.
Pat: That's amazing so in this movie.
Bret: The movie the movie itself is only a hundred and thirteen minutes to approximately 1. 65 per minute.
Ash: Lovett Lovett my type of movie.
Sam: Dang that explains all the dicks.
Pat: Alright.
Bret: This was a good one.
Ash: There's nothing scandalous about this movie you said there's a scene with a thousand bigfix and children.
Pat: I think he means like it around the production of it like.
Bret: They drew a thousand dick pics not all of them.
Bret: Whitby MPAA.
Ash: Somebody was really like scrutiny and I guess it was the people who are saying gotcha so the MPAA had to look at a thousand drawings of dick face.
Pat: It's amazing I love it.
Sam: That is they got trolled by Jay Patel.
Ash: Yes.
Bret: I find the amount of veins on this drawing menacing.
Ash: Wow.
Pat: Wasn't there a thing I want to look this up cuz I swear this is a real thing someone filmed paint drying for 8 hours and then submitted at the MPAA and they're like required to watch it basically like a f*** you and they're required to watch like every minute of it for Ratings purposes.
Ash: We was Jonah Hill as being before this movie.
Bret: Maybe I don't know.
Sam: Maybe not maybe this was the thing.
Ash: I didn't think he was but I thought this was like his thing.
Ash: Interesting.
Bret: Antagonistic friendship is because.
Ash: Jonah Hill was in I heart huckabees the 40-year old version.
Ash: Version.
Sam: Yeah.
Ash: Knocked up Evan Evan Almighty before this movie there's a couple other but okay Grandma's Boy I don't think.
Pat: Grandma's Boy don't sleep on Grandma's Boy and accepted.
Bret: Accepted.
Ash: I've never seen.
Pat: What accepted Justin long to mixes he makes a fake College.
Bret: Never heard of it.
Pat: Okay you know what we're doing that.
Ash: Nope never seen this movie Justin Long the PC guy.
Pat: He's a man he's the Mac.
Ash: PC has you know Microsoft has hired him and now he's switched teams.
Sam: That's hilarious.
Ash: Now he's doing Microsoft commercials.
Pat: Secure the bag get paid.
Bret: Okay so because this is stupid fact did you know that this is Eminem's favorite movie.
Pat: I believe that.
Sam: That's hilarious.
Ash: That's weirdly beautiful and makes a lot of sense.
Bret: He says it's his favorite movie of all time and he's even wrapped about into of his songs.
Sam: What to stock.
Pat: I do like that he made a major Motion Picture kind of about his life.
Ash: Favorite movie.
Ash: It would be kind of narcissistic though if the movie about you is your favorite movie.
Pat: I'm sure there's lots of people that they would do that they would take that.
Sam: What's your favorite book.
Pat: I'm in space different but Patrick Edwards obviously.
Bret: Fax over.
Pat: Predictions on.
Sam: All right let's do predictions cuz my arm is going to fall off.
Sam: I'll go because I remember the hype for this movie and I'm excited to watch it again because I liked it at the time I remember laughing a lot I'm concerned it won't hold up there's no way the jokes are PC no way but my favorite memory of this song or the song this movie is that my family nickname Brett McLovin.
Ash: Oh my God how have you kept this from me for so f****** long.
Sam: Yeah I don't remember why.
Bret: Is that the logical Next Step from some potluck.
Ash: Excuse me.
Sam: Not loving hahaha yes.
Bret: I thought you know how sometimes you get song lyrics wrong I thought the hot-blooded was hot love him because I never actually listen to the song.
Ash: Okay no.
Ash: That's really f****** creepy.
Sam: Also Brett and I made out a lot in high school it was also a teasing because we just made out and like we're all handsy all the time so.
Ash: I know we've talked about this before but listener.
Sam: It was it was true love man I don't know.
Ash: Seriously it was f****** terrible all the guy them. It was Teenage hormones sounds.
Pat: Plus the hormones.
Sam: Can you imagine if you met the love of your life at 16 you would act the save plus the hormones yeah you be crazy.
Ash: I just wish you didn't trick me into situations where I had to sit in a room with you guys making it.
Bret: Halo.
Sam: We didn't try to anybody we just thought it was a well-known fact if you were hanging out with us.
Ash: You ain't right you tricked me into washing that horrible polish or movie while you two made out behind me.
Sam: Yeah that's true.
Bret: I think it started out as an actual movie night and was just so mad just the worst movie I've ever seen.
Sam: Anyway so I predicted this movie won't hold up but that will still have a good time watching it.
Sam: Net positive.
Pat: Can go I can go cuz I honestly I'm probably just going to mimic 990f what Sam just said so to be efficient here at like yes I think.
Ash: Isabelle maker.
Pat: That positive for sure I think it's going to be a fun experience yes I think a lot of the jokes are going to be a little don't know about that in this day I think the biggest issue is going to be a major plot drivers.
Pat: The underlying concept of it is a problem.
Ash: Oh no oh right right oh s***.
Ash: Yeah the realization.
Pat: But that was fun in real-time like like wait what I think with like the caveat right where you can kind of separate or like I think we'll still enjoy it cuz I did this was something that movie I really thought was hilarious when it came out when I was a stupid twenty-two-year-old a 21 year old.
Pat: Yeah it's going to be fun I think we really enjoy it have a lot of s*** to unpack though and talked about in the second half though.
Pat: Dick jokes.
Bret: Yeah it'll be interesting cuz how much Stoner comedy there is an S versus just bike gross-out.
Ash: Blue humor.
Bret: Which I think is a positive because.
Bret: If there's one thing in common is that really annoys me it's people talking about weed.
Ash: Such a square.
Bret: I just it's not funny drugs is not a personality.
Ash: Just because you can't get high doesn't mean you have to take the joy for the rest of us.
Bret: It's chest it's at a lot but it doesn't sound like this movies about that being as ridiculous as possible and gosh I hope that isn't that problematic cuz that will affect.
Ash: I feel like I remember it being bad yeah.
Bret: I think there was there was a movie that we watched that the first time we watched it in theaters was so funny and it like just laughing the whole time and then I watched it again and it wasn't like 10 years earlier this was like recently after watching it the first time there's like why was I laughing what the f*** is this movie this is horrible and that was Malibu's Most Wanted.
Pat: Jamie Kennedy one.
Ash: Why were you laughing.
Bret: I think it was just unexpected lead stupid and then and then I was like how I don't know this is really just stupid out damn.
Ash: Kind of like how like Borat or like what was the other one he did.
Sam: Excuse me what.
Ash: Mix it with BoJack Horseman listen the light is hit the Line Is It Anyway nevermind.
Bret: But I have memories is this movie being fat funny and I have only seen it once and I am afraid that it's going to be like oh yeah now that I know all the jokes are coming this is fingers crossed.
Ash: I was it my turn.
Sam: I love big mouth.
Ash: I mean I kind of already said my thing how I I did not like that's interesting that you said bread that you think it's less Stoner humor and more loot humor cousin that would make a lot of sense why I didn't really like it cuz I didn't like lewd humor back then I still don't really like I feel like a more tolerant for it but like I don't care for big mouth because it's like all lewd humor and I'm just not into it you and my friend Marissa Marissa loves big mouth too and I'm just like.
Bret: Call Sandy Marissa are hundred percent.
Sam: I don't know what you talking about.
Ash: That's true but then the weird part is is I love sleeping bag so I feel like I like lewd if it's coming out of a female voice but if it's coming out of a tattoo yes briskin via Bluetooth they want and I love it.
Ash: So much better.
Pat: It does sound so delightful when British accent say filthy things there.
Sam: That is the risk.
Ash: But I feel like when it comes out of a male voice unlike you grow I don't know I know that sounds horrible but that's just my taste I guess but that being said I feel like all appreciate this movie more but I've also concerned that maybe I'll appreciate it even less after everything you just said so yeah I'm very curious because I do I do like Judd Apatow's work and like any time I've ever seen his movies.
Ash: He's just like wickedly funny so I'm curious to see if all enjoy this time my only regret.
Ash: Is that I won't be f****** stoned because I feel like that's like what you need to be to enjoy this movie but oh well I'll be drunk.
Sam: You got the wine.
Bret: Alright well I guess that's our predictions for a Superbad deposit and go watch the movie and join us when we get back if we were super glad or if it was just Superbad.
Sam: Yeah I like it.
Bret: Just at the end.
Pat: Problematic the song Panama by.
Sam: Is excellent A+.
Ash: A+ A+.
Sam: Yeah where do we start.
Sam: I know in the party.
Sam: I was like oh my God.
Ash: I didn't know okay there's definitely a lot of problematic shitzu talking about but the dude one of the dudes from the office is in this movie He's from like the later season I was like oh my God yeah.
Ash: I don't know his name yes Clark yes.
Pat: Oh yeah Clark or something isn't that like one moment that one line.
Ash: But she's in like a lot of shots like in the background.
Pat: Yeah he's in like that he's in his office Hot Tub Time Machine he's in the show I'm dying up here which I liked wasn't really well-received that's didn't 70s stand up comedian show on Showtime it's only two seasons I think.
Bret: Never heard of it showtimes stuff doesn't often make it out of Showtime.
Ash: Showtime or maybe not.
Bret: Showtime if you're not paying for that.
Ash: Okay so let's get the baggage out of the way there.
Bret: I want to know what's the baggage cuz.
Ash: Yeah of course.
Sam: Can I just say something yeah.
Pat: The condemning the motivating part of the movie.
Sam: Yeah well I forgot to say I was expecting something way worse it's not great but I think I set that bar real low.
Sam: I was pleasantly surprised I'll put it like that.
Ash: But they have sex with us Seattle.
Pat: I assume just caught up we're at we're talkin about the concede that they're like we're going to get them so drunk that they sleep with us which is very f***** up and wrong and problematic and isn't it assault essential but bad and it wasn't as prevalent throughout at the beginning and then brought up at the end but it kind of went away.
Sam: Also it also was kind of handled in a way that was very self-aware I felt like it's not great but also it was the the Seth character he was just a freaking idiot about everything and then the Michael Cera character was kind of the voice of reason I'm like no like no that's not okay that's not so I thought it was well it is terribly problematic it was at least aware that it was problematic and it was shown in the storytelling that they didn't agree with what Seth was saying.
Bret: The characters were problematic but I feel like yeah they handled it surprisingly well.
Ash: This is a perfect example of.
Ash: And I've had this discussion with screenwriters where like it's not that you can't have problematic characters and it's not that you can't have characters that say fuckedupshit it's that you have to have someone saying hey that's not okay you know like you have to have someone countering that behavior and that's what Michael said Sarah was doing in the film which was good even though heat he almost did it himself but at least he likes tops you know and.
Ash: And I think you do you can you can have those problematic characters as long as somebody is telling the audience like hey that's not okay or problematic.
Bret: You don't even need like a character to do that I didn't even have to be a physical someone they just have to frame the story in the way where it's obvious that it's not okay like it's always sunny.
Pat: Is the difference where it's like.
Ash: TRUE.
Pat: There's a line and I feel like that's a good indicator of someone is like a good Creator or skilled at what they do and someone who doesn't understand it there's any wants to it it's.
Pat: There is sometimes a difference between a character having a shity stance on something but the movie or the show does not share that is just this character and there are.
Pat: Dum Dums out there who don't get that who who don't see that delineation and it's like no cuz you see the way this is done is.
Pat: It's showing as this is bad or if you know.
Sam: Also the way that side the way that they handled the end of the movie with the Seth character he was not that he brought the alcohol to the party but he wasn't actively like trying to lay.
Sam: Horse get her drunk you know he that was totally up to her you know he assumes that she would get herself drunk but he wasn't trying to like four strings on anyone so that really helped this case and it was like a really funny story Counterpoint when she was completely sober at the end and he was just trashed leg.
Bret: It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia and now it is is faster the plan wasn't that he was going to do something bad it's the implication.
Ash: Yeah and also the way they handled it at the end in the mall where like he like apologizes to her and you know he's like I'm sorry I was being an idiot you know kind of thing.
Sam: Annette.
Ash: So yeah the scene where they don't though handled the situation well is when someone spits on the cop and the cop f****** like nailed them in the face.
Sam: So so here's.
Pat: Knox's jaw dislocate his jaw.
Sam: Here's what I feel about the cops is that.
Sam: Are brilliant satire of the police.
Ash: Totally.
Bret: Talking about documentary filmmaking.
Sam: And it's like if they are horrific Lee problematic but they're so self-aware the storytelling is so self-aware of how problematic these cops are.
Pat: I am blown away by how different I view all of their scenes now.
Pat: Whereas texting.
Ash: At the time it was probably like this is funny and silly like cops would never do that.
Sam: Was it the dancing scene at the party with the with the leg and the Furious 1.
Ash: Oh God.
Ash: Was it.
Bret: Yeah that was good the whole party sequence.
Pat: I love Michael said I'm trying to remember exactly which is written it down what his responses to Becca when she's on top of him in the bed where there's a handful that were.
Ash: Yes.
Sam: Like if your dick is so soft your ass your ass would be too if you had one.
Pat: Belies.
Ash: Yoga the vowels a good one I love when they cut back to him in the room with the dudes who were like about to snort coke and they're just like singing a song randomly no context.
Sam: It's so good it's so funny.
Ash: Pretty you know you know what I realized it's like the liquor store scene when he like hands or the fake ID is almost shot for shot the scene in my short film hold up when Bonnie goes to buy a gun and she has a fake ID and I was like wow I guess this film resonated with me because like literally the shots or like the same most like 100k you should stay.
Sam: That's funny I thought you were going to say Clerks.
Ash: No but it did I was watching it with Bryce and Bryce was like this has a very clerks by vandals like yeah I can see that.
Sam: But it's not in like a ripping off but kind of like a omage throw it away.
Ash: Reggaeton has the same tone.
Ash: Totally yeah.
Pat: Socratis.
Bret: I just feel like Michael Sarah's physical comedy is that matched at just it's really funny because because everyone else in the movie like everyone was just big arms sweeps and overreacting to everything and they thought was the comedy and he's like just like quiet dude and they actually had to get a larger screen for the the video Village at stuff because everybody thought like Michael Cera was just blowing the movie and like not doing anything with his partner like no no he's really funny up close.
Ash: Wow interesting.
Pat: He's so good I remember the one of those.
Pat: Perseverance.
Ash: He was my favorite part of Arrested Development like he just is so funny.
Ash: It's just a shame that he like costly gets cast is like the same character you know but he does do it so well.
Sam: Yeah I mean I ain't mad at that I have know if you do something well why not you know.
Bret: Sunlight that makes sense to for like.
Bret: We're just watching Falcon and the Winter Soldier and no spoilers.
Bret: Julia Louis-Dreyfus shows up.
Ash: Oh my God yes so good.
Ash: Yeah.
Bret: She's so good but having just watched all of Veep again and we've been working our way through Seinfeld I'm like I think she's just not playing a part I think that she just is that I think she just plays the same person that's her.
Sam: I think she's more Elaine front well I don't know but having grown up I could see you like she displayed herself and she just gets more like.
Sam: Frank as she gets older and like less scared of pleasing people and is just like here I am take it or leave it.
Bret: Yes he's got a thing do it.
Ash: I feel like she's a better person in Veep than she is in Seinfeld but I could be wrong.
Bret: Did you.
Sam: You have not finished beep then.
Ash: I have not seen much of either of these properties so I could be wrong.
Bret: Records by the end of it.
Sam: You are yeah.
Ash: Oh no.
Pat: Yeah there's it's it's I mean it's great but it's roof like they don't.
Bret: And how much stuff they did in Veep that they predicted like this came out like 2 years before that happened in real life like oh my God.
Sam: Yes.
Pat: Yeah it's wild I have a friend of the showcasing and Maddie lime I have a tax that we talked about Marvel stuff a lot and it with them and we're joking about that and then I had this picture like you know what I want beef Style Show in the MCU but about Valkyrie running new Asgard in this part of the European Union.
Ash: Yes yes thank you also I'm really sad that I'm not on this text chain but I totally understand why I'm hot.
Sam: I mean that's the big leagues Ash.
Pat: Cuz you're a girl.
Sam: I think it's okay don't be.
Ash: What are you trying to say that I'm a female.
Sam: No I tried to say that all of them have read the comics.
Ash: No I do I was quoted the movie.
Ash: No anytime.
Pat: Yeah we get we get deep into the key in there.
Ash: Anytime I ask case of question or anything about that sort of thing I'm like well this just with a sharp left into.
Ash: More information that I need about that bass.
Pat: Case a question about that separate one of the topics unless you're ready for the encyclopedia entry out and I say that with love and admiration and I love it about but you should be very well you should be very aware.
Ash: Yes no I love it thank you case don't stop don't don't stop just know that I don't know 700f the stuff you're saying.
Ash: I don't know it's hard it's like okay it's hard to like talk about this movie cuz like.
Ash: Overall it was really enjoyable.
Ash: I only two notes are how are your dick taking abilities and do you guys remember 7-Eleven.
Ash: Because I miss it.
Ash: About this movie.
Pat: I do remember said it was fun it was fun we enjoyed it there are parts that like I mean like the use of the F-word I like damn we really doing that still in 07 that liberally.
Ash: The bad F-word ya-ya-ya.
Pat: The bad F-word you still doing that.
Sam: And they also had that so gay and they're so.
Bret: They just did that a lot.
Ash: Yeah there's a lot I wonder how much was like improvised or how much was written or like the things that I thought about.
Ash: Walk away from this film is like okay so Jonah Hill is supposed to be Seth Rogen right.
Bret: The names or SASS and seven.
Pat: I just holy s*** I just realized.
Ash: Yeah I didn't realize it until this watching either and I was like.
Ash: Seth Rogen doesn't walk away from this film looking like a great person you know like.
Bret: Also unspoken trivia many of the events of this movie were apparently true from things that they actually done or mostly true.
Ash: I assumed yeah.
Sam: That's funny I just also we don't know how much Jonah Hill ad-lib.
Ash: That's what I'm saying is like I wonder how much of that was written and how much of it was ad-libbed.
Bret: I mean if it's if it's anything like what I've heard about their other movies like most of its ad-lib like they have the scene Starts Here CNN's here you guys just rattle off as many jokes as you can in 5 minutes and will cut it down to 30 seconds you know.
Ash: So interesting I know Judd Apatow talks about a lot of times when he does he just builds in improv takes so like heat like they do the scripted take but then he lets them do improv takes and then usually The Improv takes are the ones that are taken like in editing.
Pat: I'm sure it's like this is what needs to get conveyed this is the sentiment that needs to come across or here's the eeo here's we want to be at the end of this if you have a funny way to do that go for it.
Bret: Are you be drastically missed using your resources I mean a full script but like to not let this you know all star cast of in Proverbs Dino do their thing that would be a crime.
Ash: Wait a second I just realized I said book-smart is the female version of this and isn't that chick Jonah Hill's sister.
Sam: Yeah she is.
Ash: Holyshit yeah she is.
Pat: Did she really do the one of the main girls that's amazing.
Ash: Wow okay interesting.
Bret: Again.
Sam: Yeah she Charming as hell.
Ash: And she's like basically playing his character right you know.
Sam: Yeah kind of I mean they're both could have their own characters but yes she's they're much more like goody-goody which is kind of a fun take on it I mean obviously these guys are nerdy up but they're totally okay to like break the rules you know they established that in the beginning they're having they're like drinking beers which poses a very valuable question if they had access to beers on their own.
Sam: Why is it so hard for the alcohol for the party.
Ash: I was wondering that.
Pat: They probably know I mean I could see that.
Pat: My parents had were.
Pat: Relax it was just me and like a few of my closest friends at their house.
Pat: We could we could get into that fridge a little bit but as far as like that was a whole toilet.
Ash: This is like a full-blown party and like people are already drunk when he shows up with alcohol.
Pat: You know I think I thought you were talking about like in the flashback when they said like when when you're talking about yeah when when Michael Cera is like oh we had this crazy weekend and we were and they got drunk it is just like the three of them they probably had like four beers each from Jonah Hill's dad's garage beer fridge and it's like that's a totally different animal than like a case of liquor.
Sam: Yeah that's true very true.
Ash: I was thinking like they show up at the party supposedly with the alcohol but the chick that's into Michael Cera is clearly already smashed.
Pat: A party that's not the only people that brought alcohol.
Bret: Also how many how many House Parties have you been to everyone brings alcohol.
Ash: I know but they like they just made it sound like they were depending on them for the alcohol.
Bret: I don't know if a party with that many people if $100 is going to cover it even in 2007 remember.
Ash: That's true.
Pat: I mean unless it's all like.
Pat: Box of vodka that comes in the plastic bottle.
Ash: God.
Sam: I mean do you remember how little alcohol got you smashed at that age.
Bret: I don't know Miss but a whole bottle of vodka in the blender tell me.
Pat: Oh dang girl.
Sam: To be fair I didn't drink a lot of that and neither did anyone at my party so it wasn't a whole bottle but it was like 50.
Ash: My tolerance was much higher in high school.
Sam: Real well now now but.
Ash: Ike I put play wizard staff and win so.
Sam: Alright well I guess Miss Square over here me was the only one that's gotten cooler with age.
Sam: Alright.
Sam: Scratch that.
Ash: Yeah now wondering gets me drugs but back then it was for you.
Bret: Yeah that was we just went to a bad school.
Ash: Says the guy who drink Bacardi in my living room.
Sam: I've got to say.
Pat: But that was the first time I ever got sick alcohol is Bacardi.
Pat: Everyone steal your stomach.
Pat: Bacardi limon mixed with Mountain Dew Code Red code red called.
Bret: No thanks.
Ash: No no no.
Sam: So then your caffeinated for The Hangover smartmove.
Ash: Did you send my play a bunch of wow and you know.
Pat: Now we're playing.
Ash: Call of Duty.
Pat: I have drink a I have another time I was I have drank a whole bottle of gin over the course of 8 hours playing World of Warcraft with a.
Sam: Yes I approved I know Ashley had mentioned you were laughing a lot more than you expected in this movie and I laughed so hard when Jonah Hill got backed into by the car in the parking lot of the liquor store it was so.
Ash: It was like the Brooklyn Nine-Nine guy.
Sam: Is it was like so unexpected just beating freaking jerk in the parking lot and just fake gets hit by a car.
Sam: Yeah yeah.
Ash: And it was a perfect setup to 4 when he gets hit by the cop car because that would have felt even more out-of-left-field if they hadn't set it up early on.
Sam: Exactly and I left a section left at it but I did I laughed very hard.
Pat: Chatfield get-up-and-go.
Ash: I love the moment where McLovin comes out of the cop car and they just see each other and Michael Cera just f****** books but like but I 100 0. 000000e+00xpected like McLovin flicks his cigarette and I thought so it's going to hit the alcohol and it's going to light on fire and it didn't and I was a little disappointed.
Sam: Sister alcohol 50.
Ash: TRUE.
Sam: If beer fizzy detergent do you have kids will trick nasty s*** I know.
Ash: Can you believe they drink that.
Sam: That's how you give yourself diarrhea.
Pat: When you're 18 you're deer toy like f*** yeah.
Pat: H-E-B were sober cleans your insides.
Sam: I find it hard to believe that those detergent bottles were the best vessel for the beer and the basement in the whole entire day of that basement that's what he picked.
Ash: Yeah I was shouting I was shouting find a backpack backpack.
Pat: My thing with her is he where did he dump them out and think right.
Pat: What else can thinks do other than have drains.
Sam: Yeah okay.
Ash: I assumed he did but then we saw him pour it and it was like still like blue for somebody.
Sam: As somebody who is an avid recycler have you ever tried to rinse out one of those things.
Pat: No I know that's up it's so like the residue it's so visits.
Sam: It's infinite bubbles it's impossible.
Bret: I mean as the safety Captain I feel like the MSDS would say that it's not food safe even after you washed it out.
Sam: It isn't food safe because then it would be food-safe.
Pat: Cleanest soap guys it's soap with what we what you do you still have to clean your glasses and dishes you filthy animals.
Ash: I mean haven't you eaten a tide pod.
Bret: Can I wash my ass when I take a shower you want to eat off at bud.
Pat: Don't threaten me with a good time.
Ash: It depends is it the best.
Sam: Is it aspirin.
Bret: You can wash a lot of things okay doesn't make him clean.
Ash: As long as there's no ass blood or what.
Sam: Oh yeah I should we talk about that scene.
Ash: Superior fencing.
Ash: Okay thank you.
Sam: I think that oddly one of the more problematic scenes just.
Pat: No yeah just the whole other it's like cuz it's like.
Sam: It's a little degrading to women but it's also funny because it kind of walks that line because it's very ill-informed but that's kind of the point because that's what they're pointing out about all the dudes out there just like uneducated fools about things.
Ash: Yeah except the woman that then joins in and she's like GT2 tampon and I'm like really really.
Sam: I thought that part was kind of funny like.
Bret: Remember High School we're being mean to each other was the way you showed that you love someone.
Sam: I think that's only you.
Pat: High school for adults.
Ash: Cluck-U Brett.
Bret: Just be as mean as possible to everyone you know I don't know that's when I do it when I go and hang out and an apple once in awhile if I if we hang out in the high school group everyone does real mean to each other because that's the only way they know how to interact.
Ash: 100.
Ash: I bet I had to be like hey can you turn it down to see wasn't used to it and I was like.
Sam: I also had to do that.
Pat: Their love language.
Sam: Yes I also did do that to all of my college roommates they're like who the f*** is this a****** that you're dating unlike.
Sam: Well let me explain.
Ash: He doesn't mean it.
Bret: It was Dino as a Napa thing and I'm glad that that's not the way the rest the world acts but definitely had to unlearn so that behavior because.
Bret: I was just how everyone was.
Pat: You're like if I give you s*** it means I like you guy that you.
Bret: No it was more just like never say anything nice to anyone ever but like you know that was just like you got friends f*** you like it was a weird Community Napa so I thought I would try out on this episode.
Bret: Call Liam DB and it is where I tell you three facts and you have to guess which one of them is not true.
Pat: I love this.
Ash: Okay okay okay I love this I love it look how much exercise we have without guests.
Sam: I know actually this is impressive.
Bret: Name of the movie was the original eboys night. The people like Superbad which was the working title of them.
Bret: The MPAA said that this was the first movie ever to use the word finger fight.
Ash: Wow this is hard.
Bret: Well commonly attributed to Jersey Shore the acronym DTF is actually from this movie meaning down to fly.
Ash: I feel like I've heard that one before though.
Pat: So one of those is a lie.
Bret: One of those is a lie.
Sam: Dang Brett you wrote a good lie.
Pat: DTF finger f*** and holds the first one again.
Bret: Name of the movie was originally by.
Ash: I'm going to boys night.
Sam: Just just to throw it off.
Bret: The cavern.
Ash: No no that's not my guess no we're just we're referencing magic Tavern sorry I'm going to guess finger-f*** because I'm going to credit cellspark for that one.
Pat: Yeah I was leaving Fingerhut to his like there's no way that hasn't been sighted and movie.
Sam: Al's Auto boys night.
Bret: Well you'll be surprised to know or maybe not surprised at all to know that several men came up with the idea for this movie with Dave krumholtz and they came up with the name of it while they were getting high it was not it was.
Pat: Superbad all the way.
Sam: I win.
Sam: Really.
Ash: What are we so two of them or a lion one of them was a tree.
Ash: What was the other.
Pat: Note or true so this was the first movie.
Bret: Was.
Ash: Okay.
Pat: Was always called Superbad so this is.
Bret: It was called Superbad since they were in high school.
Sam: That's hilarious okay.
Pat: Congratulations Sam.
Pat: I like that feature Brett I wish you'd make that a regular thing.
Ash: I enjoy this segment.
Bret: We play that's the only party game ever playing jackbox is the one where you have to make up the thing that's not true events.
Ash: Whatever f*** you Brett I mean I love you man.
Pat: One thing I do I do remember or talk about something sorry but I know you're trying to but this won't take long but this movie was kind of I felt like the big like tip of the spear or the most one that kicked off the whole life.
Pat: Like those dumb like daytime new shows like romances are a thing now a guy's who's your Bromance like friend that you answer yours okay to say I love you to your friend and then that word I feel like was all of a sudden everywhere.
Pat: Fun stuff in Lake Elmo.
Bret: The no homo.
Pat: It's okay guys it's the whole thing of like this was the first movie and then after I like it's okay to have a bromance okay to tell your buddy 11 guys like that hole.
Pat: I feel like I've never heard that and they don't say it in this movie but I feel like I never heard that word before and then after this movie hurt all the time for like 3 years.
Sam: I could see that cuz also that was a little bit of a theme in 40 year old virgin to write where he's kind of like buddy-buddy with his friends.
Ash: I remember like I feel like yes man was like the first really big.
Pat: I mean I love you man.
Ash: Romance or I love you man sorry yeah.
Sam: 7 was later yeah.
Pat: The first that was way after this and that movies a perfect Masterpiece by the way but.
Sam: I need to re-watch that one then that's Paul read.
Ash: Yes I'm Rashida Jones I think right.
Pat: Yeah I adore Rashida Jones.
Pat: Even most of them.
Sam: Is it why do I think that Paul Rudd is in every Judd Apatow movie I know that's not true but I feel like that's maybe what this movie was missing but at least Bill Hader was in it.
Ash: Bill Hader was so good.
Pat: All right isn't he's in most Judd Apatow movies and I mean honestly I could watch Paul Rudd and Seth Rogen just improv s*** to each other probably like an hour straight.
Sam: Absolutely.
Sam: Yeah should we do final thoughts.
Bret: Anymore.
Sam: I can't I can't cuz I just asked all right okay so.
Bret: You've asked the Baton and passing it back.
Sam: Alright well I'll go.
Sam: Be surprised with this movie yeah there's problematic things but it's like pretty self-aware about them and very tongue-in-cheek and satirical about it I laughed way more than I thought and there is some really clever editing and song Choices and visual choices and the aesthetic was super fun I totally see why this movie was a hit and it was a super fun thing to re-watch and I'm really glad I did and I totally want to add this to my like rotation of feel-good films to just like throw on and cheer me up so thumbs-up from me.
Bret: Yeah I pretty much agree with that it was much better than I thought I did I wasn't thinking I was going to be disappointed but it was way better than I thought it was going to be it was problematic on purpose to make a point which is the good time to problematic I guess even though yeah there was some some language that we as a society have moved past but.
Bret: For the most part it was just fun and like.
Bret: Gross like Ice Coolers are gross.
Bret: It wasn't too or if I only adult like what if we want to recently it was the one with the with the little kids that was basically the same movie but they were little kids.
Sam: Good boys.
Ash: And they're swearing yeah.
Sam: I actually really like.
Pat: Also is that Seth Rogen also like rotate or directed or whatever.
Bret: Makes sense.
Sam: That would make a lot of sense I don't know though.
Pat: I'm like 90ure he who did he wrote it or director or producer or 3 or what.
Sam: It's pretty funny as well but it is very inappropriate.
Bret: This movie felt like if they presented their characters with.
Bret: Age appropriate inappropriate stuff you know what I mean like stuff that you could someone could have foreseeably gotten into that kind of trouble in high school for the most part.
Ash: They were pretty great pretty great.
Sam: Can I cut you off and add something the dick drawings were f****** top-notch and hilarious they were so funny and also.
Sam: I'm not going to name names but I do know somebody who has a kid that went through a dick drawing phase so that is apparently real.
Bret: 80f kids do it.
Ash: Wow interesting.
Sam: Prosthetic kids obsessive obviously but like you know they thought it was funny too like add penises to everything if you like really subtle ways though.
Pat: Because it is.
Sam: Yeah it's hilarious.
Ash: Are they mostly boys or are they also girls or I'm just curious.
Sam: I only have one case study and their boy.
Bret: Mostly boys.
Sam: Who knows but I did enjoy that and I chuckled a lot.
Bret: And the thought that there was over a thousand of those drawings made and only you know maybe fifty of them made it in the movie.
Ash: And I don't know if you guys watch the credits but like as I was turning it off brace was like oh yeah I forgot it's just like a bunch of the dick pics at the end.
Sam: So funny.
Pat: I would love art gallery somewhere that has all old.
Sam: I'm sure I'm sure like different crew members all walked home with one of those.
Sam: Is fantastic the alien one killed me.
Sam: Alright sorry I interrupt.
Bret: I just saying I like it I feel like it was the kind of inappropriate that makes sense which is good cuz it wasn't distracting from the plot and having seen a bunch of the other Seth Rogen and friends you know Jed Apatow movies.
Bret: Many of them I haven't enjoyed as much they're not I don't think I've ever stumble across like a bad one but you know this one's definitely in the top-tier I would be curious.
Sam: Is not top-tier.
Bret: Stop near I be curious to know what went so right with this one and is it just like their High School passion project that claimed it was a good idea and stuck with it or was it the particular cast that was involved something about this worked better than a lot of the other movies of theirs that I've seen.
Sam: Probably just the fact that they worked on it for so long you know and so they.
Ash: We'll also it's not it doesn't feel like a Judd Apatow movie it feels like a Seth Rogen movie.
Ash: You know like Judd Apatow.
Ash: Reduced it did he directed as well.
Pat: No is that Greg mottola.
Ash: Okay right so he didn't direct and he didn't right so it doesn't feel like Judd Apatow is like writing style.
Ash: Which is interesting anyway.
Ash: I might be I'm just saying that might be why.
Bret: Maybe but anyway.
Ash: Yeah I think I agree I decide like this way more than I thought I was going to like it I totally see why I didn't like it cuz like there's all the like lewd stuff and.
Ash: Problematic way women are treated throughout the film that I.
Sam: 1000x drawings.
Ash: Yeah that I probably didn't care for back then but to be honest compared to today's standards it's not really that bad but yeah I really enjoyed it I really wanted I wish that there was more to talk about from a filmmaking perspective I mean I did enjoy the clothing choices the wardrobe choices and the the music but.
Ash: Cinematographer perspective there's there's nothing special going on you know.
Bret: Dark and weirdly lit shots.
Ash: Yeah there's not a lot of fighting going on they shot a lot of like natural light stuff like the most interesting Lighting in the film was probably the scene or Jonah Hill and Michael Cera wake up the next morning from his basement and there's like this really hard key light hitting Michael Sarah's hair that's supposed to be like like morning sunlight and that's cool but they're very very subtle and low touch.
Ash: And I kind of wanted to talk more about that talk about.
Sam: I would add that.
Sam: What they do they do well so if they don't do a lot of fancy staging but it's clear so like you know what's going on witch.
Sam: Hello sometimes hard to pull off there's a lot of films where things get muddy and you're not quite sure like what you're supposed to see or what's supposed to be going on but this was clear the entire time so it's not fancy it's yeah.
Ash: And it's not really needed you know like fancy lighting or can't removing start not really needed.
Sam: What 20 million dollar budget.

Sam: That's when the movie came out that's why I said.
Bret: And if you're listening to us on Google podcasts get another podcast client no cuz I recently started adding chapters to the show so you can go to like all the good bits if you're like if you stop playing it whatever and Google doesn't support it so they deserve the higher.
Pat: The whole show of the good bit how dare you bro.
Ash: Yeah what's up wait chapters.
Sam: You can you can find your place more easily.
Bret: You know sometimes when you listening to a show that supposed to be an hour long and it's two and a half hours long and maybe up to posit there like your your phone dies halfway through and you need to.
Pat: Is that the goal here.
Pat: I didn't get those marching orders.
Ash: I have tried.
Bret: Which show used to be an hour long.
Ash: I have tried for years to keep it an hour and it is just I've given up.
Sam: It's a futile effort.
Ash: But here's the thing is I did a Twitter poll and our fans don't care so I was like all right you get the longer content.
Sam: Also I feel like the more the better friends we become the longer that and there's just nothing we can do about it.
Bret: Downloads have gone nothing but since we stopped caring about how long the show was.
Sam: Hey alright.
Sam: I care deeply.
Ash: And caring caring about the show in general just just apathy is the new.
Pat: No oh my God I care so much about the show.
Ash: I'm kidding.
