[00:02:42] Grocery store clerk Simon occasionally sells drugs from his cash register at work.

[00:02:46] So when soap opera actors Adam and Zach come looking for ecstasy on a quiet Christmas Eve,

[00:02:51] they're surprised if I'm Rana covering his shift.

[00:02:54] Disp... Desperate for money, Rana decides to become an impromptu drug dealer unaware that Adam and

[00:03:01] Zach are secretly working for obsessed narcotics officer Burke. The movie stars Katie Holmes,

[00:03:07] Jay Moore, Sarah Pauley, Scott Wolfe, Tay Diggs, Brecken Meyer, James Duvall, Timothy Elephant,

[00:03:14] and William Fitchner. The movie was directed by Doug Liman and screenplay written by John

[00:03:19] August. You can watch it currently on Amazon or YouTube for rent for $3.59. Let's get into our

[00:03:27] ratings rewind. So you know the drill before we get into the movie, we'll reveal the rating our

[00:03:32] Y2K versions of ourselves would give. Then at the end, we'll see if our current selves agree

[00:03:36] with our initial reading. Our scale consists of would buy it would buy it again. The best

[00:03:40] would plan repeat five day rental would watch again two day rental. Okay, but nothing to

[00:03:47] write home about and same day rental. It's pretty much a shit filled garbage pile. It's trash.

[00:03:57] So Megan, what is your Y2K reading of go would buy would buy again? Is that what it is? Yes.

[00:04:04] Yes, definitely. It's a wood by for me, Jackie. It's a wood by I was,

[00:04:10] I don't think I realized what a huge no doubt fan I was.

[00:04:16] Also Gwen Stefani, like yes, I know that she's problematic for her appropriation and not only

[00:04:23] for her appropriation, but also the fact that she doubled double down on it when confronted with

[00:04:28] it even to this day she still like doesn't apologize for it and is just real cringe.

[00:04:34] But let's be honest for a hot minute there, that bitch was top tier. Yeah,

[00:04:41] she has such a unique voice that like and like the music is just so jammy it's hard to not

[00:04:49] Yes, feel good listening to it. And her aesthetics were great like who rocks braces

[00:04:55] and rocks out and nobody makes fun of that shit. Right. And this era she was wearing braces.

[00:05:02] Mm hmm. Gotta give it to her. Gotta give it to her. Anywho, that song on soundtrack definitely

[00:05:09] influenced me saying I got to see this movie and it didn't disappoint at the time. So

[00:05:15] what about you, Jackie? Would buy for me. I liked anything like Super Indie and this felt

[00:05:20] like a Quentin Tarantino-esque style movie where it's like disjointed editing and you see

[00:05:26] one storyline that feeds into another so I was totally into it. It definitely wasn't Indie.

[00:05:33] It started off with a lower budget and they kept getting money

[00:05:37] gradually throughout the movie but the process of making the movies but the budget

[00:05:42] was $20 million and it made $28.5 million dollars. Actually when it was about to start shooting

[00:05:49] its foreign financing fell through because the film lacked a bankable white male star.

[00:05:55] Oh that sounds familiar. Yeah so Columbia Pictures actually stepped in and financed the film but

[00:06:01] this movie was very Indie like the way that they ended up shooting and we'll get into all of that

[00:06:07] was it had probably more money than most Indie productions do but it still was. They were

[00:06:13] scrapping for real. So you ready to hear what little Raj had to say? Always.

[00:06:18] The Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun Time stated that Go is an entertaining clever black comedy that

[00:06:27] takes place entirely in Tarantino land. Go has energy and wit and the performances are right

[00:06:34] for the material especially Sarah Pauley who thinks fast and survives harrowing experiences

[00:06:39] and Fitchner the cop who is so remarkably open to new experiences. I didn't realize that the

[00:06:47] director of this movie made so many bangers Doug Lyman he has made Mr. and Mrs. Smith the born

[00:06:55] identity, swingers, edge of tomorrow. I'm pretty sure he did the OC show as well or at least a lot

[00:07:02] of the episodes yeah he was like a producer director something of the OC. Well that's why

[00:07:07] this movie speaks to our heart. Yeah for sure and I love that he's done all these movies

[00:07:14] and he still says that he considers Go to be his best film. Like he's just like us y'all.

[00:07:21] So this movie came out August 24th 1999 on VHS and man it was a good time to be alive.

[00:07:28] Simply irresistible. Romeo and Michelle's High School reunion. Mr. Holland's opus

[00:07:33] sense and sensibility dirty work which came out in 98 but I guess

[00:07:37] it took a while to come out on VHS for some reason the mods were on and Uli's Gold.

[00:07:42] They're like wow. Old one though. Yeah probably yeah it probably just got a

[00:07:47] like a release or something but before we dive into the casting let's hear a word from our podpals.

[00:07:57] What's up dudes I'm Jerry D of Totally Rad Christmas the podcast that talks all things

[00:08:01] Christmas in the 80s toys movies specials music books fashion and fads. If it was gnarly during

[00:08:08] Christmas in the 80s he's got it covered. So tune in to Totally Rad Christmas everywhere you

[00:08:13] get your podcast turn the clock back and dive into those warm and fuzzy memories later dudes.

[00:08:19] Now let's talk about casting crew because the casting there's a lot of fun stories so let's

[00:08:26] start with after viewing Swingers John August who wrote the film and the producers felt like

[00:08:33] Doug Lyman would be the perfect fit and Lyman did sign on soon after. I think it took a little

[00:08:40] convincing though for him and the funny story is that guess what movie he was like they were trying

[00:08:46] to position him to make for instead of this one they were like if you do another indie

[00:08:53] you're gonna mess you know it's gonna mess up like it'll be a while before another big studio

[00:08:57] opportunity comes yeah heartbreakers our movie heartbreakers but it's weird because

[00:09:04] we know that movie didn't come out till what was it like 2004. Yeah so was it really

[00:09:13] maybe it was a 2001 I thought it was I thought it was

[00:09:16] it was 1999 no 2001 yeah okay it's taken just a little bit but yeah I was surprised by that

[00:09:26] and I was like I love go but man I love me heartbreakers it's so good it's so ridiculous

[00:09:35] okay casting was problematic due to the fact of the adult nature of this movie

[00:09:40] and the plot and the fact that teenage actors would have been too young to portray half the

[00:09:45] actions in the script so when it was decided to cast slightly older actors it just made sense

[00:09:52] that could pass for teenagers so I'm not surprised by that and I'm grateful. Right thank you for doing

[00:10:00] that. Just watching this movie I was like man this just makes me want to watch Dawn of the Dead

[00:10:06] so bad because Sarah Pauly is so good and that's my favorite like yes horror movie from that genre

[00:10:14] we had totally different thoughts and I think this is the epitome of how we are personality was

[00:10:22] seeing Sarah Pauly you thought Dawn of the Dead yes I thought Avon Lee my girl from Canada

[00:10:31] I love that fucking show and it was it's a pipeline see it started with Anna Green Gables right

[00:10:38] I think you talked about this last time she can always bring it back to Anna Green Gables

[00:10:43] oh my gosh that's impressive it's a pipeline from Anna Green Gables to Avon Lee I do love a period

[00:10:52] I don't want to be in that period of time because it wasn't great for it

[00:11:02] I do love that that Tay Diggs was like one of the first people that they hired

[00:11:06] and so the casting director Joseph Middleton he saw Tay Diggs in a production of Brent so we all know

[00:11:11] he started on Broadway and he actually had Lyman fly out to New York to meet him for the part

[00:11:17] of Marcus which I thought was cool that's awesome we had talked about in our brown sugar

[00:11:25] was it brown sugar episode how we're this year not this season because it summer season three

[00:11:31] summer season four but all in 2024 we had very heavy Tay Diggs movies and we forgot this one yes

[00:11:38] so we're not doing three Tay Diggs movies we're doing four Tay Diggs movies this year

[00:11:43] that's amazing 2024 the season of Tay Diggs and here's where he said she just popped up

[00:11:53] for real we we did brown sugar we are doing this movie we're doing the wood next week next week

[00:12:01] what was the other one and rent at the end of the year and rent at the end yeah y'all gotta find

[00:12:06] Malibu's most wanted in there that's what Daniel keeps saying I'm like please no I am so ready for

[00:12:12] that move let's go seriously because we drink the halls in it and that's it that's all I need like she

[00:12:20] is so fucking funny I seriously that movie's a blast and we've also done the best man with him

[00:12:27] as well as how Stella got her groove back not more leafies featuring Tay Diggs

[00:12:33] Tay Diggs Tay get it we are ready for you to be on the show get him on let's go

[00:12:41] any more casting tidbits yeah there's a few more about how we got our girl Sarah Pauley

[00:12:48] yeah so Doug Lemon insisted on casting Sarah Pauley after seeing her in the suite hereafter

[00:12:54] from 1997 she was offered the role directly without auditioning sounds about right I love

[00:13:01] that she's also transitioned into directing and she's been she did she didn't she win an Oscar or

[00:13:07] she was nominated she did she win I think she won I don't know if it was for the screenplay I think

[00:13:13] it might have been for writing but she is one of those child stars that seamlessly went into adult

[00:13:19] roles and she's very private and quiet too like they said that she didn't actually do any press

[00:13:25] or she didn't really talk or interviewed was interviewed about this movie or talked about

[00:13:29] this movie until the 20th anniversary in 19 in 2019 so she has won two Oscars for best adapt

[00:13:36] but they had Christina Ricci and Melissa John Hart lined up in consideration in case

[00:13:42] Sarah Pauley wasn't available but your girl got wow well they kept asking her she kept saying no

[00:13:49] so I thought that was interesting like Sarah Pauley yeah she kept saying no she said she wanted

[00:13:54] something a little bit more serious she's looking for more dramatic roles who just didn't see it

[00:13:58] and then Doug Lyman actually and I think his producing partner kind of cornered her they told

[00:14:04] her talent agent that if she didn't come and meet with them when she was in LA at that time

[00:14:11] but she didn't come and meet with them that they wouldn't see any of their other talent

[00:14:15] to be potentially in the movie so that's how they got a meeting and then one of his friends

[00:14:21] or somebody he works with it might be his producing partner actually wrote all over the

[00:14:25] script and he's always usually harsh about this anything so he wrote dumb line take it out like

[00:14:31] it was just all marked up and she wanted to see the script again and that was the only script they

[00:14:35] had so he gave it to her and he was like that's probably not the most professional but it's

[00:14:40] actually probably what got her to do the movie which was right really it says on imdb that she

[00:14:46] says in interviews that she only took the role because she loved the line in the opening scene

[00:14:50] and look how far it got you i guess she was like okay i i don't know she's got yeah amazing exactly

[00:14:59] and she does it so deadpan too like without attitude just like sullen and just like well

[00:15:05] here we are totally any more casting tidbits yeah there's a few more about how we got our girl

[00:15:12] sarah poly yeah so Doug Lyman insisted on casting sarah poly after seeing her in the

[00:15:19] suite hereafter from 1997 she was offered the role directly without auditioning sounds about right

[00:15:26] i love that she's also transitioned into directing and she's been she didn't she win an oscar or she

[00:15:34] was nominated she did she win i think she won i don't know if it was for the screenplay i think

[00:15:39] it might have been for writing but she is one of those child stars that seamlessly went into adult

[00:15:45] roles and she's very private and quiet too like they said that she didn't actually do any press

[00:15:51] or she didn't really talk or interview was interviewed about this movie or talked about this movie until

[00:15:56] the 20th anniversary in 19 in 2019 so she has won two oscars for best adapted look at my girl

[00:16:03] from avidly to gram no sorry to oscar she may win a grammy who knows she might be an eva

[00:16:11] i don't know she can sing maybe she'll do a spoken word but they had christina rici rici

[00:16:19] and melissa john heart lined up in consideration in case sarah poly wasn't available but

[00:16:26] your girl got there wow well they they kept asking her she kept saying no so i thought that

[00:16:32] was interesting like there's sarah poly yeah she kept saying no she said she wanted something a

[00:16:37] little bit more serious she was looking for more dramatic roles she just didn't see it

[00:16:41] and then dub lineman actually and i think his producing partner kind of cornered her they told

[00:16:46] her talent agent that if she didn't come and meet with them when she was in la at that time

[00:16:53] but she didn't come and meet with them that they wouldn't see any of their other talent

[00:16:57] to be potentially in the movie so that's how they got a meeting and then one of his friends

[00:17:03] or somebody he works with it might be his producing partner actually wrote all over the

[00:17:07] script and he's always usually harsh about this anything so he wrote them line take it out like

[00:17:13] it was just all marked up and she wanted to see the script again and that was the only script they had

[00:17:18] so he gave it to her and he was like that's probably not the most professional but it's

[00:17:22] actually probably what got her to do the movie which was right really it says on imdb that she

[00:17:28] says in interviews that she only took the role because she loved the line in the opening

[00:17:32] scene and look how far it got you i guess she was like okay i i don't know she's got

[00:17:38] backs are amazing exactly and she does it so deadpan too like without attitude it just like

[00:17:45] sullen and just like well here we are totally so katie was saved by go because yeah i loved her

[00:17:54] character and just i thought she was great in this movie i think this is my favorite

[00:17:59] performance of hers especially at the end when she meets back up with top like i was like this

[00:18:04] yes this is excellent i want a whole movie about this yes i just felt like i like this part because

[00:18:14] who didn't want to make out with timothy all of it i'm the same thing and i appreciate you putting

[00:18:20] his picture right in the middle so that i can stare at the entire time and i i mean in my

[00:18:27] notes it was really hard not to call him mickey but i refrained yeah i was trying to do the map

[00:18:34] i was like oh he did scream two before this because he still had that like scream scream

[00:18:41] two hair color vibe or whatever yes but like okay here's my question though do you like him better

[00:18:50] in this one or girl next door oh tawd gains all the way yeah one okay i was like the net

[00:18:58] necktie and the weird like not quite a mutton chop but like definitely like but i love it i

[00:19:07] i thought you brought up the neck tattoo because you know mama loves a neck tattoo

[00:19:14] i could write a thesis on a neck tattoo so the funny thing is that timothy thought the character

[00:19:21] needed a neck tattoo agreed he knows what's sexy however the director done didn't didn't agree

[00:19:28] he thought it was a bad idea because it would make him appear too sinister sir no there's yeah

[00:19:34] are you kidding he's selling drugs are you kidding me the next day though

[00:19:41] elephant showed up with his tattoo it's a temporary tattoo of a pair of flaming dice that the makeup

[00:19:48] department had stamped on his neck and lineman ended up liking it and it's eight in the movie so

[00:19:53] oh yeah bravo sir i am shocked that he was fired off of practical magic and replaced with

[00:20:00] eating quinn which just in my humble opinion downgrade every time i i can't wait till we do

[00:20:08] practical magic what we're doing this year um because i do have thoughts about that and i feel

[00:20:15] like him and sandra bullock would have been up in there i i do love i do love we were robbed

[00:20:22] we were robbed but i want to know like it's not even just like he decided to leave but fired

[00:20:27] it's such a strong word what happened maybe he came on with the neck tattoo everybody combusted

[00:20:32] into flames they're like no he is too hot for practical magic yeah i i love that he ended

[00:20:40] up playing todd because apparently he auditioned for adam or zad but then they all agreed that it

[00:20:45] was better for him to play todd and yes wow but did anyone else audition for um gays do we know

[00:20:53] glad that you asked because jaymore he had gotten the lead in the movie but he wanted to be

[00:20:59] todd so much so that even when he had his role he was still pushing to be the dealer

[00:21:04] he was taken my you know pusher too far wow but this was we have to remember that jaymore came

[00:21:11] right off of jerry maguire at the time and so like he got a ton of roles he said

[00:21:17] they're on at him after that movie and really didn't have a problem on set he was in a bunch of

[00:21:22] 90s and 2000s movies right yeah 200s yeah that's right that's what i was thinking of but yeah one

[00:21:28] of the things that he said was that like you know he's coming off of getting all those movies and

[00:21:33] this was any movie he really didn't have a problem until like the way that duck lineman was

[00:21:40] filming this movie it was with an old school camera so he was constantly filming

[00:21:48] and it just like didn't stop with the newer cameras this is before digital you it would take like four

[00:21:52] minutes to kind of reset and so people took breaks he's like i can't take a nap

[00:21:59] haven't been able to take a nap or do anything like we have been filming non-stop so that was

[00:22:03] like the only thing that he kind of complained about it but he said he really liked it because

[00:22:07] it reminded him of the days of when he would you know he's a comedian so when he was in new york

[00:22:12] he would be jumping to different crime clubs and stuff so i thought that was funny that's cool and

[00:22:17] the deleted scenes on the dvd you can if you can see how it's shot like it's just it's basically

[00:22:24] just like a video camera you know and it just felt like real life that's what i loved about this

[00:22:30] movie is like it felt it feels so like real like this could be me and my friend taking it out

[00:22:36] you know and the conversations we would be having and shit like that i love day in the life movies i

[00:22:42] really do yeah there's so much so much fun so much shenanigans are happening but yeah doug and i think

[00:22:49] the actors had like a different response because he was literally being the dp he was literally holding

[00:22:54] the cameras and shooting directly with them so it just i think it brought an intimacy to it as well

[00:23:02] because they were trying to cut budget so much you know what they ended up spending the most

[00:23:06] money on was the car chase scenes oh yeah they were they were advised where they shoot those

[00:23:15] i don't know i didn't see that part but i'm i don't know if they i feel like they did they

[00:23:20] actually go to vegas or but yeah i feel like a lot of it was shot in vegas maybe yeah probably

[00:23:27] out in like mexico and nevada and shit yeah i didn't see they didn't have any let me look in

[00:23:33] i'll see where their shooting locations are yeah last two things so lineman originally did not

[00:23:40] want to cast scott wolf which i thought was fun to have him in this movie because prior to this

[00:23:45] he had been pretty like straight laced you know party of five very dramatic roles what was that

[00:23:50] boat movie about the quals he was in that but like nothing you guys don't want to talk about

[00:23:57] i think so white quals or something you jeniel fired it but they cast scott wolf and well he was

[00:24:07] not really wanting to because scott was on party of five and kate holmes was on the creek

[00:24:12] that's what i wouldn't call it white squall as you know white squall

[00:24:17] 1996 it's

[00:24:21] yes

[00:24:24] swedish messengers call us if you want us to cover white squalls we'll do it as a patreon

[00:24:33] so yeah he was heading on scott wolf because kate holmes was already signed on and he didn't

[00:24:37] want a movie that was just tv actors but he saw him scott talking to jay more in the hallway

[00:24:44] and he realized that they had like a good amount of chemistry between the two of them so

[00:24:49] i thought that was good they did they really did yeah for sure and lastly melissa mccarthy this is

[00:24:56] her film debut and i never of course we didn't notice when we're watching it because we didn't

[00:25:01] know who she was yet but right i know and then it was like you rewatch and you're like of course

[00:25:08] that's melissa i know like how did i not remember that she played jimmy the make-up guy's sister

[00:25:17] she was in gilmore girls that's right when did that air in the 2000s i okay so it's after after

[00:25:23] yeah this was her film debut yeah but she was giving very suki vibes for sure yeah yeah it started

[00:25:32] in 2000 okay yeah yeah yeah it looks like it was shot in the supermarket gas station tods apartment

[00:25:42] and the rave were all in california either la or san amonica and then the new frontier

[00:25:48] hotel and casino in vegas awesome oh okay i i think it's cool because it makes a lot of

[00:25:57] sense now like after watching the movie but the writer originally wrote this he wrote it as a short

[00:26:04] film just about rana and he titled it x inspired by rock and roll ralph's grocery store in sunset

[00:26:12] boulevard but then his friends kept asking about what happened to simon when he went to vegas and

[00:26:17] what happened to zack right so he was like okay so that's why he ended up writing the other three

[00:26:23] parts which is really cool i i love that for us seriously all right jenki let's let's do this dive in

[00:26:35] the columbia intro is like so iconic when the movie starts i think we had one of these on

[00:26:41] detroit rock city too so that's awesome yeah it's just like they do the columbia intro but

[00:26:46] like as it starts the rave is like starting at the same time and so the song i want to say it's

[00:26:52] like fire up the sous chas you saw it's like some techno song comes on at the same time as like the

[00:26:58] columbia thing and it starts like going in and out and like flickering and like it's just a badass intro

[00:27:06] do y'all have y'all did y'all not see that i was eating chips megan i'm sorry

[00:27:13] okay yeah my bed i need to go back now so this is the portion of the movie that's from rana's

[00:27:19] perspective she is working as a supermarket checker we find out very quickly she's about to be evicted

[00:27:26] but she's only 17 which never made sense to me family life wasn't good and she had to move out early

[00:27:33] and figure out life you know yeah thank you for the backstory so she's been working she worked a 14

[00:27:39] hour shift she goes to clock out and then simon catches her and he's like hey i want to go on

[00:27:43] a boys trip to vegas will you work my shift i'll pay you in advance so she goes to clock back in

[00:27:50] then we see scott wolf and jay morris characters adam and zack come through her checkout line they're

[00:27:56] buying like an entire like basket full of frozen warden shoes and really they're not there to

[00:28:04] purchase anything in particular they're looking for the british guy simon who rana is covering

[00:28:09] his shift because they need 20 hits of ecstasy for a party that they're having and so rana's like

[00:28:15] well i know the drug dealer sure i'll get you your drugs and so thus leads us on this insane

[00:28:24] night that happens they hop in i i don't even know whose card is it's just decorated for christmas

[00:28:29] which i always loved i don't know i feel like it's manny's car it felt like so too yeah if it you

[00:28:36] know what and it's being decorated in christmas like i don't see rana doing that yeah i don't see

[00:28:42] claire doing that it has to be definitely manny yes for sure he's here's the one who partakes

[00:28:49] yes so they go and meet todd gains behind me hello and there she's trying to convince him she's like

[00:28:58] i know simon buys from you all the time and she kind of acts like it's for her personally

[00:29:04] and we get this whole like thing about like i don't do favors i give a blowjob before i gave a favor

[00:29:11] and i don't give blowjob steve and my best friends which i love like that whole line

[00:29:17] and so he makes he like i love this scene where he like turns the music up really

[00:29:23] loud and of course the music increases in volume in the scene or like for the viewer as well

[00:29:29] and then yeah he's like whispering to her like essentially he wants to make sure that she's not

[00:29:34] wired and not working for the cops in any form or fashion and so he makes her take her shirt off

[00:29:39] and spin around and stuff but and then like as soon as that's done he lowers the volume the

[00:29:44] volume lowers for the viewers like it's just it's a very simple scene but it's highly impactful

[00:29:51] for yeah definitely because it shows that he's no dumb drug dealer for sure he knows what's

[00:29:59] up yeah he knows the law yeah i feel like if we got more drug dealers in higher positions we would be

[00:30:05] doing better as a country they're very intelligent they are they know the law to the tea they know

[00:30:12] the law they know science because they gotta be cooking that met you know what i mean

[00:30:19] you know and and they also know what what's the other so i said they have to be somewhat

[00:30:25] personable but they have to mean business yeah their business they know how to make a good deal

[00:30:31] and they know they could spot you know if shit is a little fishy yeah hence what happened with

[00:30:38] ronah like yeah when he hits it's real convenient that you're asking for how much it would be

[00:30:46] for it to be considered that you are like traffic trafficking yeah yes and so she's like no it's just

[00:30:54] i i'm having this party and so he's like okay 15 bucks a hit and she's like well i know Simon

[00:30:59] gets them for 10 he's like no inflation 15 and she's like i just have enough money for like 10

[00:31:06] bucks a hit and he can i leave you with collateral and enter for claire who's like i don't want to

[00:31:13] sit with a drug dealer for 45 minutes and ron is like it'll be fun i when i see this scene i could

[00:31:21] so see me being ronah and jackie being claire except jackie would have never sat there

[00:31:28] as collateral she'd be like no bitch maybe if it was timithiola maybe that's the one exception

[00:31:36] shirtless an eighth santa hat yeah i'll sit here with you yeah also we missed a very important

[00:31:42] factor the fact that when ronah comes in there is already a a chick a chick there they're

[00:31:49] about to leave and she does a full make out with him and it's just like oh okay and then just leaves

[00:31:55] casually yeah i'm jealous of that extra that day so she didn't really go to town on that one as you should

[00:32:06] so they tell claire we'll be back by 8 45 minutes tops i just have to run it to this house

[00:32:10] get paid get back ron is not great with the directions and so it takes her to 804 just

[00:32:17] to find the house so claire's already paging up a storm because we don't have cell phones at this point

[00:32:24] we only have beepers and no google maps i actually imagine how hard it is to navigate trying to find

[00:32:30] this house right and so we see mani hand her the bottle as she's getting out of the car

[00:32:37] little does she know he snuck to for himself so he's very excited and she was warned like

[00:32:45] this is like pharmaceutical grade shit none of you guys one one tab one tab a hit otherwise you'll

[00:32:53] be frying eggs off of them for a week yeah and he says it's none of that crunchy granola herbal

[00:33:00] shit yes i don't know what that is what that it's like um ron to be selling later

[00:33:08] to kids i think they're rolling and they're just right placebo effect in

[00:33:16] um so ronna goes inside and she asked for some of the they asked her if she wants anything to drink

[00:33:22] she says some of the oj would be great and this is when we're introduced to berk william

[00:33:28] finkter's character and he comes back he's like no oj but i got you a survey so and that's

[00:33:37] yeah she's like yeah it ain't right like and adam and zacker they're just looking nervous

[00:33:43] and the place looks all staged and like so weird like it was just so sketchy

[00:33:50] i remember watching that for the first time and having like a full-on panic attack like i was like

[00:33:54] no no like i was just freaking out for her this is a kill room yeah i would have just been nervous

[00:34:01] because there's just three guys that it's not like a party i would have felt like

[00:34:06] something could happen to me besides just like the drug aspect but they very much were giving off

[00:34:11] narc vibes and i i do love how seamlessly she kind of like dealt with the situation

[00:34:18] oh yeah and we learned later that was it who's adam which one's that which one's adam adam is

[00:34:25] got wolf okay so zack mouths to her go yes yes i would love i needed i would i was looking to see

[00:34:33] if they would say it somewhere how many times the word go is actually said in this movie because

[00:34:38] it's a lot yeah for different reasons so she ends up asking to use the restroom she goes in

[00:34:47] in a panic she can't get the lid off the bottle like pills go everywhere she's trying to flush

[00:34:51] him meanwhile berk is trying to get into the bathroom there's like a little window like up above

[00:34:56] the door also why did she flush them i would just i would have just like stuffed them in my pants

[00:35:01] or something yeah hit them on me and you know did whatever she said she was gonna do i mean she

[00:35:08] didn't have to i don't know yeah yeah definitely like because they weren't going to unnecessary

[00:35:14] yeah because they didn't have like probable cause to like search her or anything she could have

[00:35:20] just been like oh sorry couldn't get um thanks for the beer and walked out but she's also 17 and

[00:35:26] has never been a drug dealer before so but she she flushes them and then he opens the door as she's

[00:35:35] walking around she's like it's all yours like she was so great in that scene though like she

[00:35:40] really just killed it what i never understood is why she even went back to get clear right away

[00:35:47] why didn't she because it seemed like that plan of selling like the Tylenol and whatnot

[00:35:53] was already brewing why not go to the rave sell some get them the hundred dollars pay off what's

[00:36:00] his face and then be done yeah why fuck with this crazy drug dealer well i think i think she

[00:36:06] was just like what claire was blowing up her pager and she was like i gotta get claire back

[00:36:11] so i need to come up with a plan but to trust the very high man to identify what the pills look like

[00:36:20] yeah she was never gonna get away with that like eventually he was going to see whether or not

[00:36:25] they were the same shape he would have known like and they have known numbers are printed yeah

[00:36:31] yeah no it was a bad bad plan yeah but i'm sure she was under a lot of pressure because like you

[00:36:36] said mani was starting a fucking trip he was also funny she still let mani drive to the store

[00:36:45] yeah she gave no fucks who just like let's get out of here she's like drive

[00:36:50] bitch he's gonna kill you he's gonna be able to dance scenes in his little brain

[00:36:56] he's not on this

[00:36:59] i love that dance scene hey macarena

[00:37:06] yeah so they go to the grocery store where she works so she's and she steals a whole bunch of

[00:37:12] medication she's like allergy medicine yeah but she's not doing a good job stealing either because

[00:37:18] she's making a mess and knocking things over like she did not look inconspicuous at all

[00:37:24] like baby girl just take one off the shelf kind of look at it and then

[00:37:28] slide yes because you have so much experience thieving i want i will

[00:37:36] you are correct i am not the thieving type however i've watched enough movies to know

[00:37:41] so they go back to get claire she convinces thawd to take back the pills and as she's leaving he goes

[00:37:49] claire i just did you a favor and she's she says like it felt like a blow oh here i thought it was

[00:37:57] a blow job and like walks out and like the one liners in this movie yeah top notch well man

[00:38:06] and so before ronnie shows up though thawd starts giving creepy man vibes

[00:38:13] he's like do you want to get laid for christmas and he keeps you over using her name

[00:38:19] yes it was very much mickey vides from and he's like are you a virgin and stuff like that yeah

[00:38:26] like you are the 20s a 30 year old man and i'm 17 get get the step in sir right to catch a predator

[00:38:35] i'd catch this predator it's jelly but someone said it i'm telling you the sexual awakening that

[00:38:46] happened with todd the drug dealer and go i think i'm just gonna get you some underwear that says to

[00:38:53] catch a predator and then a picture of him from this movie oh my god oh god the other main thing

[00:39:01] that happens in the whole todd ronnie claire scene is that manny comes up just tripping like

[00:39:09] he can't even hardly stand up straight and he has a mental conversation with the cat

[00:39:14] oh my god that is my favorite part of the whole movie he's like you're gonna die

[00:39:23] as soon as the cat like jumps up on the couch i'm like oh shit here we go like

[00:39:28] hence and while you're tripping is just so crazy so yeah that scene was awesome i can hear your thoughts

[00:39:36] yeah and i'm like nobody notices this dude like tripping out in the corner right now like

[00:39:41] there were other things going on i guess so after they leave todd the drug dealer's apartment

[00:39:48] this is when ronnie reveals she has this brilliant plan to sell the rest of the pills

[00:39:52] at the rave to recoup the money she is now lost because she's still gonna be a victim if

[00:39:57] she doesn't have three hundred forty dollars by tomorrow so they introduce themselves as kelly and

[00:40:02] donna and to a no ho we already discussed the dance the dance scene right no no let's go back to the

[00:40:12] we just glanced over and i feel like that doesn't do it justice no way no so while ronnie is

[00:40:21] very poorly shoplifting mani is in his own little mani world he starts he's playing with the scanner

[00:40:28] and like making a beat and then in his mind he starts dancing to the moccarena with the other

[00:40:35] checkout lady and they're like he's throwing green beans in the air they're laying on the produce

[00:40:41] there's sharing a banana oh yeah who was an actress was she somebody i looked and i don't

[00:40:50] think she was i think probably a bit hard actress like but nothing significant right

[00:40:58] wow she was great but that's dancing scene and then you find out like it's all a mani's head like

[00:41:03] this is happening so great and he's just like basically like standing there drooling so kelly

[00:41:11] and donna are selling like it's been a drill and shit to all of these kids going to a rave and

[00:41:18] they're totally buying into it yeah and i do really like the part where she she kind of like

[00:41:25] in her own mind is this big time drug dealer because a kid comes up he's like oh i heard you

[00:41:30] got the good shit and she's like show me your tits and makes him spin you do you ronnie

[00:41:38] sometimes you gotta fake to you make it you know sometimes yeah especially the cahonas you need

[00:41:43] to be selling fucking Tylenol and shit i know but i do like that she tells them that like look

[00:41:50] you gotta get it it works better when you get really high with maryl yeah so yeah spoke a lot of weed

[00:41:58] yeah and then this todd realizes that she gave him like aspirin to replace the ecstasy she flushed

[00:42:08] and earlier when he had the claire is ransom she had told him about the rave like gave him the

[00:42:15] fire for the rave so he's now going to hear or he's going to find ronnie and then to confirm

[00:42:21] his suspicions he overhears some of the kids talking about like it's legit stuff it's none

[00:42:27] of that crunchy herbal rave shit which is what he said to ronnie earlier in the movie and so

[00:42:32] he's like i know she's hogging better here yeah yeah it's about this time the the double dose of ecstasy

[00:42:40] is catching up with mani and he he's burning up just as todd predicted he's puking he's he's unwell

[00:42:48] and so ronnie's solution is here hide between these trash cans till morning they're so lucky

[00:42:55] okay because in an alleyway nonetheless yeah i would never do that to somebody

[00:43:02] that's so fucked up well i don't think that her intention was to really leave him for that long

[00:43:07] she did have to go right she's got to take him to the ER but she forgot right yeah well she got hit

[00:43:19] and nobody else knew about him but her yeah she's like hide like a little mouse i'm gonna go get

[00:43:24] the car and be right back and then that's right i almost called him mickey todd catches up to her in

[00:43:29] the parking lot and he's like you fucked me over and he's threatening her with a gun and she starts

[00:43:36] running and gets hit by a miata driven by zack and adam do you think that he really was gonna

[00:43:44] shoot her i don't know maybe i think so maybe yeah maybe not kill her but maybe like shoot her in the

[00:43:54] leg or you know something yeah i mean why does he got that if he's not gonna you say maybe he'll pistol

[00:44:00] loop her yeah or something that's true no we see ronnie fly off into a ditch and we don't know if

[00:44:07] she's alive or dead she's not moving it okay the way that he acts in this scene is priceless like

[00:44:15] this scene alone is hilarious because it's he says so much dialogue without saying a word and the fact

[00:44:25] that like the fuck did this happen and then the way he's looking at them in the car in the miata

[00:44:31] he's like yeah y'all fucking for real do you not see me like y'all no you didn't just

[00:44:39] and then he's kind of pointing and then they just drive away and he's just standing there like

[00:44:44] they do so many things it's not even like they just hit her and keep going like they hit her

[00:44:50] they back up they go forward they back up again they say yeah like there's so much and he is

[00:44:57] like i know fuck like and they like zoom and hit the brakes so that she flies off into the

[00:45:03] ditch and i love that he's like you know what i don't gotta do nothing i'm just yeah he's like

[00:45:10] well thanks i guess mission accomplished you know what now that i think about it he was gonna

[00:45:16] shoot he would have shot her because he has no remorse even when he sees claire later he doesn't

[00:45:23] say your friend's in a bad way you're looking for your friend let's go make out he's gonna give up

[00:45:29] i know i mean he needs to be a drug dealer i am going to be a tata apologist this entire movie

[00:45:37] he's so far gone y'all she's like well they weren't that good of friends but i mean she broke the

[00:45:44] code there was an agreement she broke the agreement no one in this movie is a good person yeah she

[00:45:52] like you said she made so many horrible mist like horrible choices yeah decisions like she could have

[00:45:58] first off not flush them she could have like you said gone and sold and made the money before she

[00:46:04] went back to todd so i mean really it was on her i would say there's two candidates for not horrible

[00:46:11] people in this movie it's sing and claire no and and manny i don't think manny's a horrible

[00:46:18] person he's so adorable he was just trying to have fun just wow that's all claire's too whiny and

[00:46:27] straight lace for me and she wasn't making smart decisions either true i mean she was solution

[00:46:32] minded at the end but we'll get to that a little bit yeah so simon so simon my boy now i have to

[00:46:41] preface that as much as i love sarah poly in this movie because of avonlea i very much like this actor

[00:46:50] does menaskew because he was in roswell so you know i was happy to see him he was i need to rewatch

[00:46:56] roswell i loved that show anywho so we meet simon we you know we saw that he approached ronah

[00:47:02] about taking his shift so that he can go to vegas with his boys so when we see him again after

[00:47:08] that exchange he wakes up in the back of a trunk of a car which i'm still trying to figure out what

[00:47:14] the hell happened i don't know if he fell asleep or if he took a drug but he's in the back of the trunk

[00:47:18] and his yeah you hear laughing so his friends have thrown him back there what scared me the most

[00:47:24] about this is that he has a lighter and they look like there's an oil canister or something

[00:47:30] back there is it's a gas can or something i said not this is not smart but this is just

[00:47:36] one of many dumb decisions that that simon makes halfway through his storyline i just wrote i hate

[00:47:43] simon the shit he does he has the british white man of the audacity for sure yes so then he is

[00:47:54] we meet his friends so we've got marcus played by tay diggs who i think he's the one getting

[00:47:59] married because apparently this is this a bachelor party essentially or something is he

[00:48:03] getting married or was he just talking about his girlfriend boys boy's trip i think it's a

[00:48:07] boys trip yeah okay and i feel like simon wasn't really invited like those are the vibes i guess

[00:48:13] just like he's just like i've never been to vegas i want to go exactly yeah this friend

[00:48:19] mentioned it in passing and he's just like yes i will go honestly i don't even it doesn't

[00:48:26] even matter because this friend group is not a solid group in the first place i don't know

[00:48:31] how these people know each other okay i don't know how they're friends because there it doesn't

[00:48:35] seem like they're real friends so marcus seems to be like the only one well sing doesn't seem too

[00:48:41] too bad but definitely marcus seems to be the only one with some brain cells rubbed together

[00:48:46] then we meet tiny played by breck and meyer he's definitely giving stuff yeah from kahri

[00:48:52] wait vibes he's i i i know some people don't like me using word wigger but that's what it is

[00:48:59] giving where he's appropriating black culture he uses the word he uses the n word and so

[00:49:07] i try to take a deep breath and stay within it and because i know a white man wrote this movie well

[00:49:14] you know what i don't know for sure if a white man wrote this movie i will check on that but

[00:49:22] the use of the word the n word by a white man makes no sense and then tay diggs marcus's

[00:49:28] character's reaction to it he doesn't get super angry he just is like what are you talking about so

[00:49:34] we learn that this character is very much trying to put on he tells an entire story about a girl

[00:49:41] and and marcus is like what are the details do you remember this you remember that he's like

[00:49:46] i don't remember whatever who cares whatever he's like i care because you're telling the

[00:49:50] fucking story i told months ago like yeah you're not even what are you doing so we kind of see

[00:49:58] what tiny's about sing is driving and then we've got simon in the back just being whatever

[00:50:04] and then they get to the hotel in vegas and this is when we see that simon has todd's credit card

[00:50:11] and he's only using it to just book the room because he said that todd has points or he has

[00:50:16] discounts at this hotel with that credit card which i think is interesting because todd just told us he

[00:50:22] doesn't do favors but apparently this is a this looks like a favor to me they seem simon stole that

[00:50:28] credit card and he wasn't was any on the phone but todd was on the phone with simon whenever

[00:50:34] claire was sitting there and they were talking and stuff it just seems doesn't seem like todd to

[00:50:39] just give him his credit card yeah but he like checks in and says like hey yeah and here whatever

[00:50:44] so it does feel like todd but he does say simon does say like i'm just using the credit card to get

[00:50:50] the discounts but i'm going to be paying with cash so it's not like he's actually okay okay a credit

[00:50:56] card so so we think or so todd thinks i mean todd thinks that one probably when he gave him the

[00:51:02] credit card before they get their room they go to the buffet to eat and this is when we learn

[00:51:09] a little bit about marcus he's talking about tantris tantris sex and tantric sex and his girlfriend

[00:51:16] and they're asking a bunch of questions about that and he's saying how he can go for hours like

[00:51:20] literally trying to be sting essentially like without coming and then while they're at the buffet

[00:51:26] marcus says to sing in tiny you know don't stop fucking with that shrimp don't eat that shrimp

[00:51:32] they all eat those two idiots get eat the shrimp they get back to the room they are fucked

[00:51:37] up they're shitting and stinking out the room they are sick we also learn that their hotel is adjacent

[00:51:45] to another room and there's a little kid over the door yeah yeah and they are not the nicest

[00:51:52] of little kid and this is when when todd and simon are talking on the phone and he does ask

[00:51:57] todd if he's going to fuck or have sex with sorry but i think he does say buck

[00:52:03] hello i'm not claire claire yeah so now the tiny and singer out marcus and simon decide they're

[00:52:10] gonna go hit the town they go hit the obviously they go hit up the casino first obviously simon

[00:52:17] loses all his fucking money within five minutes he's already asking marcus for money and marcus takes

[00:52:22] his wallet and he's like that is the most friend-like thing that happens in this whole segment

[00:52:31] is him saying let me have your wallet like you're making stupid decisions right yes yeah the thing that

[00:52:37] we learn later is the way that marcus and simon become friends which i think is hilarious is because

[00:52:43] they both went to driving school together that's how they know each other and we see both of them

[00:52:49] drive recklessly also because tay digs is from new york he had to learn how to drive to pour

[00:52:56] this movie because he did not have his license prior i read that i love that fun fact which is

[00:53:03] very new york i know a lot of my new york friends who do not know how to drive

[00:53:07] anywho so another thing to that happens is that marcus is getting a lot of like micro he's dealing

[00:53:14] with a lot of racial micro aggressions where people are treating him like staff he is treated

[00:53:21] like an attendant someone throws cash at him or when he's in the bathroom just being nice i think

[00:53:27] in some ways they were trying to make it seem like because he was wearing that jacket because

[00:53:31] yes but i think yellow jacket yeah but it doesn't make him look like an attendant it was just

[00:53:36] micro racist micro aggressions he also as him and simon are like walking out this guy just

[00:53:42] throws his keys as if he is a parking attendant so they take this car this sports car and they

[00:53:48] just are like okay what's it done yeah you know i don't know what is it oh no my barbie had a corvette

[00:53:56] that's all i know okay so they take the Ferrari and they end up going to the crazy horse strip club

[00:54:04] because it was one of taj recommendations but as they're in the car before they get to the crazy

[00:54:10] horse fucking simon finds a gun in the gloves compartment this scene made me so uncomfortable i'm

[00:54:18] like bruh like not only are you like pointing it in your face you don't know how to work it and i

[00:54:24] get like what i kind of gleaned was like because he's british and they're not allowed to have firearms

[00:54:28] like he had no but i'm like you've watched a movie before like right you know not to point at

[00:54:33] anyone and he's just like looking down the barrel trying to eject the magazine like waving

[00:54:39] around it gets me at mark it's like it is bananas how he is acting with this gun it's very very

[00:54:47] like i you know megan when you said you were having like anxiety that happens a lot in this

[00:54:53] movie yes i was getting anxiety during this scene it's a nail biter for sure so they go to the

[00:55:01] crazy horse now mark is where he messed up was he should have asked simon if he had that fucking

[00:55:05] gun yes right and so but before he does give him like a child speech like when we go on the

[00:55:11] store you've been asked for a goddamn thing that's the kind of vibes he was giving so he tells simon

[00:55:17] look when we go in here order whatever drink you fucking want but do not ask for champagne and so

[00:55:22] you know simons like why because it's for a private dance and we do not have the money

[00:55:28] for that you definitely don't have the money for that i can't even cover your own that so do

[00:55:32] not ask for champagne art and so like he's made it very clear and the first set of tips that gets

[00:55:38] in simon's face he's like i would like to order your best champagne and now now they're in the

[00:55:46] fucking back room and then they get i don't know why marcus doesn't say like look he didn't mean it

[00:55:53] he don't want to but he goes along with it and i'm like y'all are not thinking this through

[00:55:59] but then they go to the back room and the bouncer guy says look i've only got a few rules for you

[00:56:05] do not touch the girls yeah that's it you they can touch you but you can't touch them

[00:56:10] and at this point simon pays with todd's credit card just many more mistakes more mistakes

[00:56:18] and they go back to the champagne room and guess what fucking simon does grabs the grabs the

[00:56:22] grabs the grabs he touches and so the girls already they have their code touching touching

[00:56:27] touching and the bouncer comes in and starts to beat that ass and marcus but the funny thing is

[00:56:33] that again another little microaggression is that he as soon as he comes in and he hears that the

[00:56:38] girls were like they were touched who does he go after first marcus marcus and not simon and

[00:56:44] they're like the girls are like no no it's this one and he starts to wail on simon well

[00:56:50] deserved i if i was marcus i'd have been like you have to take your else there i love you but this

[00:56:56] is not a situation where i could jump in because like i warned you he warned you everyone warned you

[00:57:02] and marcus does try to step in and he gets hit he's bleeding and what does simon do instead of just

[00:57:08] like he could have just pulled the gun and scared them but he doesn't do that he pulled

[00:57:11] out the gun and he shoots the bouncer in the arm in the arm yeah and so then then they tell the

[00:57:18] girls like where's the back alley where and where's the how do you get out of here so they leave they

[00:57:24] take the car they're driving they're freaking out and the car phone starts ringing which is probably

[00:57:31] the owner like where the fuck is my car or i feel like would have been too soon like i feel like he

[00:57:36] would have just thought it was valed and just been in the casino for a while so who knows yeah

[00:57:40] because i well we don't know how long they were in the crazy horse that's true they could

[00:57:45] have been in there for a while and then as they're driving genius simon decides to throw the gun out

[00:57:52] of the car he's like i gave her the weapon and marcus is like i could just feel him go

[00:57:59] like yeah bitch your friends are all right your friends are all over the gun

[00:58:05] oh fucking wow wait was was this before after he banged those two girls oh right sorry and

[00:58:13] we didn't fire i did miss that part out of all of the most ridiculous things that happen in this

[00:58:19] movie that is this part is the most ridiculous when marcus took simon's wallet he decides to

[00:58:28] wander and he stumbles upon a wedding and he somehow ends up flirting with two of the

[00:58:34] bridesmaids and they are easy as easy can be at this point that British accent got bitches lined

[00:58:40] essentially and they take him back to their room and they're smoking it looks like a crack pipe to me

[00:58:47] but i i know it's probably there well i don't know well i hope not one of the dumbest things

[00:58:53] that the girl does is she puts tissues on her nose she's like it's the only way to inhale

[00:58:58] bitch like i would have been everyone would have known like if you had tissue in your nose

[00:59:04] yeah and tissue goes up in flames so quickly right why would you try to burn the pipe so like

[00:59:12] oh my god it was so done so then she like freaks out and the tissue falls to the floor and of

[00:59:20] course they all work to like getting out the fire whatever but they leave continued

[00:59:26] fucking while the fire was up in flames and they leave the curtains caught yes yes if they'd pick

[00:59:32] up the tissues and just like make sure they were out the first time it wouldn't have been a problem

[00:59:36] and the way to calm her nerves simon is like trying to make out with her or whatever and so

[00:59:40] they have sex simon it's also high they're all high but he sees that now somehow the tissue

[00:59:47] has caused the curtains to be in flames and it's he's still just watching because he's just like

[00:59:54] yes he's practicing tantric sex right yes that's what it is i want to know if there was a

[01:00:01] scene where marcus like told him described him because just because you hear about tantric sex

[01:00:05] doesn't mean you just automatically know how to do it like he said it took him a while to

[01:00:09] to like get there no simon simon just thinks he's the sexual god in his own mind well

[01:00:19] shoots on fire simon's a horrible human being so he leaves the girls behind

[01:00:24] and he tries to take the elevator which i'm surprised elevator is even working when there's a fire

[01:00:28] running naked yes but that's when he catches up with marcus doesn't tell him any of that shit and

[01:00:35] then they have the crazy horse shenanigans so then those two idiots come back to the hotel

[01:00:41] run upstairs and they're like we gots to go but while that's happening they don't realize that

[01:00:46] the club owner is that's the that's his son that got shot so he's like

[01:00:52] and give us some boomer speech about our generation or gen z gen x generation he has

[01:01:00] the type of veneers where they like turn yellow and over time and i was just like oh i'm sorry your

[01:01:07] teeth it's yeah look he's definitely got some chompers and somehow like without internet without

[01:01:16] surveillance they're able to track these mofos down because they are able to see yeah because

[01:01:24] they left the credit card that it was used at the hotel so they call the room and the other

[01:01:30] two knuckleheads that are in the room they're like what room are you in and they should have

[01:01:35] questioned that but they were like oh six something and i love that tiny's like just saying it and

[01:01:41] sings like well what who was i don't know what it was i really appreciate this scene where they're

[01:01:50] watching like the hotel channel where it's explaining how to play all of the casino games

[01:01:57] because i grew up going to reno every summer and that channel like we would watch it for hours i

[01:02:03] don't know why but it would just always be on in the background some like old dude teaching now teaching

[01:02:09] you how to play backer at and stuff i was like i remember those days that's a good catch i didn't

[01:02:16] even remember i didn't need then the guys get back to their room and they're this is what annoys me

[01:02:21] like i understand tiny wanting to know what the fuck is going on but also another part of me knows

[01:02:28] if one of my friends says yo we gotta pack and go i'm doing it i might be asking questions but

[01:02:34] i'm already up and back and so after that the guys go downstairs to the garage they're able to

[01:02:42] bribe a little boy next door to open the door i love how the kids says a hundred dollars

[01:02:48] they're all putting money and tiny goes i got 10 did y'all notice that you said

[01:02:58] they get out they go to the garage they get in the car i feel like they could have hid but it was like

[01:03:06] barely they barely made it they barely made it through that door but i feel like they could have

[01:03:10] hid in the car and the guys like they wouldn't have no like they didn't know what car they were

[01:03:14] driving if they had just like hid somewhere else those guys wouldn't have found it but they go what

[01:03:20] kind of car was this one big body birth that looked like a suburban i can't be sure but i think it was

[01:03:29] a server well i don't know it was it was one of those like old sturdy ones uh so they take off

[01:03:39] sturdy and it was like that thing got hit a few times that gold car whatever it was so the guys

[01:03:46] are chasing them they're they're they're driving somehow simon is the one driving and now we know

[01:03:51] why simon and marcus were in driving school because and i don't know what they learned because they

[01:03:56] didn't learn nothing horrible drivers um they they caused a few accidents it's a car chase

[01:04:06] essentially and then they decide to go down this really tight alley and fuck up the car real bad

[01:04:11] oh my gosh it's it's i wanted to know whose car it was because i feel like somebody in the car

[01:04:16] should have been extremely mad about how fucked up the car was yeah right that car shouldn't

[01:04:22] have been drivable after no they hid brick walls they it was something to be seen but some

[01:04:30] the gold car was a dot sin i'm still trying to find the what the big black car i didn't care about

[01:04:36] that one i wanted to know what the this one was smashed up on yeah okay so they they're able to

[01:04:44] get away from the trip club owner and his son and they had home and they're like you know what

[01:04:52] they're not chasing us they're not going to call the police let's just go home because simon's

[01:04:55] like ready to go into hiding at this point he's like i'm i'm good let's go to mexico i take cabo

[01:05:01] like yeah it's a game so they end up deciding to go home and when he gets back he doesn't go

[01:05:09] back to his apartment he ends up going to todd's and when we get to Todd's house Todd has

[01:05:18] he's with Chloe and mr owner and son track back Todd's credit card to his address so they come over

[01:05:28] they actually they don't knock on his door they catch those two make it out on the staircase

[01:05:34] and what the dad is on the top of the stairs and the son is downstairs and they pull guns and so

[01:05:39] what i love is that Todd literally right like draws a map to where yeah in the house

[01:05:47] to be like no he lives here this is where you find him blah blah blah and so you know Clara's watching

[01:05:55] all this and she's lost the mood she she was like ready to bone and now she's like over it

[01:05:59] because they're all idiots and so they're like she's like what do you guys even want you know

[01:06:03] because if you if you kill him word witnesses like none of this is adding up and so she's when

[01:06:09] she asked that they're like okay we just want payback so they decide they want to shoot Simon in the

[01:06:13] arm for retribution so everything's square and at this point Claire's like fuck it i'm out of this

[01:06:18] shit and she leaves and as she's leaving which is such a great scene you see her jump because

[01:06:24] you see the the gun you hear the gun finally go off and you hear Simon go i'm fine and and

[01:06:30] yeah that's Simon's shenanigans yeah so the last third is about adam and Zach so we find out that

[01:06:38] they're actors they're actually on the tv behind Claire as Simon's asking Ronan to take his shift

[01:06:45] and so they're wired trying to find this drug dealer and get a drug bust so that they get

[01:06:52] out of trouble with this narcotics cup but they also when they're in the car with Burke Burke

[01:06:57] is very intrusive in their love lives and he's like oh my gosh it's it's so weird like you feel this

[01:07:05] sexual tension with Burke the whole time and these two and you never get a payoff which is so disappointing

[01:07:14] but we find out Zach and Adam are lovers and so Burke is asking questions about their girlfriends

[01:07:21] and is your girlfriend cheating on you and he's like yeah i found socks that were different than

[01:07:26] mine it's a feel-as-so it's such a put like i wonder if that actually happened to the writer

[01:07:35] because it's such a specific thing i know um and then oh and then we see them kind of

[01:07:42] tailing ronoh we see her outside of Todd's apartment we see her in the car with Manny

[01:07:49] and so their plan is to not bust her they want to bring her to their side and her become

[01:07:54] a narc to get to the drug dealer Todd it's it seems like there's this weird scene where he's

[01:08:01] handcuffing Zach where i don't really understand that was more of like the sexual tension i was

[01:08:07] feeling and i was like he was i at first i thought he was positioning himself to be like you know how

[01:08:14] they have experts that help with the show but he was just saying that like he thought they did

[01:08:20] wrong on tv all the time and so he was trying to show how to do it but it was very intrusive and

[01:08:27] sexual in the way and then he will take the handcuffs off yeah it was weird so then we get

[01:08:37] ronoh shows up we get that whole scene with her and then again you feel like Burke's gonna

[01:08:43] proposition them but he's like i just like you guys to come to christmas dinner with me

[01:08:48] and my wife my wife's cooking christmas dinner so they're like okay and we see adams making a phone

[01:08:54] call in the kitchen and the wife played by jane krasinski is that her last name yeah yeah and i'm

[01:09:01] wondering if this is the first time i've ever seen her in a movie i think it is at the time i didn't

[01:09:06] yeah but i do love like when that he scott wilson character is that adam yeah goes in how she

[01:09:14] is deliberately bent over yes yes and the way in which that she she did a snap she yeah and it was

[01:09:23] very much from a perspective of someone who is a dancer you know what that's not true i see i saw her

[01:09:29] on ale mcbill before i saw her in this so i knew who she was before this and then we see

[01:09:37] zach is using the restroom he washes his hands and i guess the restroom is attached to their

[01:09:41] bedroom maybe they only have one restroom in their house yeah and he walks out and berg is like

[01:09:49] naked as the day he was born just hanging out frank's and bean all of it and buns we got the

[01:09:57] frank's we got the beans we got the buns and he's just like smell this doesn't it smell like ck1

[01:10:05] on yeah it's very much a naked house that's all yeah well we come to find out that there's no

[01:10:12] propositioning happening it's just there are a couple of weirdos who found each other yeah

[01:10:18] characters and then did you notice all of the baby oil on the vanity

[01:10:24] five bottles of baby oil on the vanity that is great and then he's like come sit on the

[01:10:32] bed you feel that doesn't it feel nice he's like you wouldn't even i can i could jump on this bed you

[01:10:39] wouldn't even feel it yeah and then that part it's so it's so uncomfortable but like in the

[01:10:47] best it is it's fucking hilarious it's like yeah uncomfortable like like todd salon salons movies

[01:10:55] like the welcome to the doll house yes that vibe like it's just so uncomfortable you're like so now

[01:11:00] we're oh and then uh the wife Irene i think is her name she starts asking adam about like kissing

[01:11:07] and acting and and like is it real do you use tongue blah blah blah and then she like full on

[01:11:13] makes out with him yeah and he's highly uncomfortable with this there was no consent

[01:11:21] happening and then she just goes on to like serve dinner so they're all sitting around

[01:11:26] the dinner table and um i bet that ham was real good though i don't know why but i felt like it was

[01:11:35] delicious i'm sure Irene's a wonderful cook and then Zach like are you open to new things so this is

[01:11:42] when you're like okay they're they're gonna do a proposition like this is what's happening

[01:11:46] and then we cut to the scene at dinner and i love where they're all sitting down and they go

[01:11:52] what wine pairs with ham well and they both at the same time adam and zach go white wine and i was like

[01:11:58] you guys are just a little precious gay couple and i love you yeah but like Zach is feeling that

[01:12:04] the vibes are off and he's he's saying like adam's not feeling well we're gonna have to go

[01:12:09] but then Irene and burglar clean with their ulterior motive it's not the sex

[01:12:15] no it's not which we were all waiting for yes it's a pyramid scheme it's an m m yes

[01:12:23] and it's called confederated products which i didn't care for at all but there's like throughout the

[01:12:30] movie you could see placements of confederate products yeah in the car in the trunk i think you

[01:12:35] could see some i think you see some effort like laundry detergent somewhere but you see the different

[01:12:41] products which i think is hilarious yeah they're like they're like everything in this house is bought

[01:12:47] through confederated products and it's a third of the price and you can get in under us and we're not

[01:12:51] allowed to recruit anyone in the police force so we're searching for people in outside industries

[01:12:58] and they have like a wholesale pitch yes and they're just like it's good it's so uncomfortable

[01:13:06] like why do they have to do all that to sell their scheme they're so weird and i love how like

[01:13:14] that this is happening in like 1999 but now it's like such a huge thing online

[01:13:22] so crazy and so they kind of peace out and i love how adam says i need to bathe in sin

[01:13:31] yes oh my gosh so they're at the liquor store they're buying a bottle of booze and they start

[01:13:39] talking about how they each only cheated with one guy and they're like okay at the same time

[01:13:43] let's say who the guy is and it's jimmy and makeup oh and so they're like fuck we were

[01:13:51] we're cheating with the same guy so they go to confront jimmy and makeup and this is where

[01:13:55] we get the scene with melissa mcarthy and i love how she's like oh so you guys know now one time

[01:14:02] you missed each other by like three minutes it was so exciting i just love like as soon as she opens

[01:14:07] the door she's laughing at them she's like oh no okay and so they're like okay well where is jimmy

[01:14:14] because we got we got a conversation to have with him and she's like oh he's at the rave let me

[01:14:20] get the info so that's how adam and zack end up at the rave and i love how they're waiting in line to

[01:14:27] get into the rave and they're talking about their sexual encounters with jimmy and adam had to teach

[01:14:34] him how to do a proper blow job and he's like and zack's like when was this he's like oh like

[01:14:39] mid october and and like zack thinks yeah he did get a lot better oh my god but like okay

[01:14:49] if adam teaches jimmy his techniques and adam and zack are together wouldn't zack have been like you

[01:14:57] know this is familiar yeah you know i think he was more focused on the blow job than comparing it

[01:15:06] technique yeah so they find jimmy and their retaliation is to cut his beautiful locks

[01:15:15] just a piece to make him look fucked up yeah so now they've accomplished their goal

[01:15:22] they're leaving the parking lot adam's driving his lost but he's driving slowly he's like

[01:15:30] flying through the parking lot and he's he's reversing at at least like 15 20 miles per hour

[01:15:39] and this is when he hits rana and the scream they scrum was perfect it's amazing yes

[01:15:50] i'm trying it oh my god now i can't think of it there's like oh it's like the scream that

[01:15:56] jonah hill does yes and accepted yes yes so good yeah and so they like rationalize leaving her

[01:16:05] they're like she's probably dead like it's fine uh so they go to the gas station he's pulling hair off

[01:16:12] of the windshield it's pretty bad and that's when adam goes in to use the restroom he comes out he's

[01:16:18] like i was wearing my wire the whole time so we got a problem i but i wonder i wonder if it really

[01:16:26] was a problem because remember the the second cop had pulled all the supplies at like it looks like

[01:16:32] he took anything apart so i don't know if anything was really still recording yeah but that's

[01:16:37] scared this that's scared of those two so they go back to get her and their plan is no body no

[01:16:45] crime so now they're gonna dispose of a body i love that adam is too chicken shit to even

[01:16:53] touch the like he's crying at this point yeah and he's like talking through like it's just a movie

[01:16:59] come pick her up don't you see the lighting guy and i also love so this is like my

[01:17:07] very favorite part of the movie and this was the first movie ken and i ever watched together

[01:17:11] because i was like you've never seen go and so and it stemmed from i quote this quote all the time

[01:17:19] anytime i see him and me out i go it's something from this movie because adam is trying to rearrange

[01:17:27] the trunk to fit ronnie in and it's like it fits like a shoebox and a jack and that is it and he

[01:17:35] keeps just moving them back and forth and that's when it's like it's a miata like it's not gonna

[01:17:41] fit a fucking girl so he's like no you just have to sit with her on your lap while we drive

[01:17:47] and that's the solution but then as they're carrying ronnie to the car she starts coughing

[01:17:53] and they panic and they're like now we have to kill her so he takes the car jack and is like acting

[01:17:59] like he's gonna smash her head and then he thoroughly chickens out which surprise surprise

[01:18:08] and jeez and then i love how he's like okay new plan and they just leave her on the hood of a car

[01:18:17] and set off the alarm oh my god i love that those kids that she sold drugs to are the ones that found

[01:18:25] her they're like oh my god look what happened that kelly or was it done i don't know what i'm like

[01:18:30] oh my god it's kelly and so like adam's still not feeling great they watch her get in like

[01:18:38] put into an ambulance and jack's like girl in the ditch was our problem girl out of the ditch

[01:18:44] not our problem it's fine i'm like yeah the normalization happening between these two

[01:18:52] and then we see claire she's waiting at the car no one ever comes so she eventually walks to the

[01:18:58] diner where they always meet in case they get separated during i guess their nights of debauchery

[01:19:04] and then that's when she sees todd she sits with him and i love how she tells him he's only medium

[01:19:11] damn yeah in what world she's also 17

[01:19:19] i love that we're glassing over that but okay then this is where it bleeds back into simon's story

[01:19:27] they leave the diner they're making out on the stairs and then the cat comes downstairs

[01:19:32] he's like how'd you get out and then that's where we go into the scene where simon needs to get

[01:19:38] shot in the arm to as a penance for shooting the bodyguard or the bouncer and then we see ronna

[01:19:46] wake up in the hospital and i guess immediately leave to go back to work and she's like carrying

[01:19:51] her like cash tray limping and claire is at work too and she's like hey like

[01:19:58] fellow tonight where's mani and they both realize like mani still and then i love how they go

[01:20:05] to find mani and he's still huddled in the alleyway like a little mouse and then you see a very quick

[01:20:13] shot of an alley cat like walk past him and in the credits the cat has a credit

[01:20:21] alley cat is played by princess leah lucky buttons oh my gosh i love that

[01:20:28] you too i also love how they have to go back to the ditch where ronna was punted into

[01:20:37] to find the car keys so that they can drive home ronna let's talk about the fact that ronna is

[01:20:44] walking like one of her legs got popped out of the socket yeah there was definitely some limbage

[01:20:52] happening there i like that when when ronna shows up to work and she's at the cash register and then

[01:20:59] claire is at her cash register and this is the first time they're seeing each other

[01:21:03] she looks at her like bitch what the fuck and ronna's like things didn't go as planned

[01:21:13] and then the closing line of the movie is mani just from the backseat like what are we

[01:21:19] going to do for new years and like then no doubt plays credits and then watch the best movie is to

[01:21:27] watch go first for christmas and then watch 200 cigarettes for new years that i think are the

[01:21:32] two companion movies i'm hell yeah very sure i actually do watch those secondly like every year

[01:21:41] yes that should be the new tradition definitely and that is go we did it yay

[01:21:50] such a good one it's so good a classic while we still have a few little fun tidbits i love that when

[01:21:58] wolf and morr are talking in the supermarket about the cheating girlfriends more says isn't it ironic

[01:22:05] to which wolf replies don't you think which they were quoting a lambsmore set song

[01:22:11] love that i was did not know this but one of the few major differences between august's spec

[01:22:17] script and the final film is that in the original he had intended for ronna to be black so that would

[01:22:25] have been interesting they would have never gotten funding for that because if they were

[01:22:28] struggling because they didn't have a bankable white lead yeah there was no way yeah and

[01:22:35] the letter x or the figure x is a recurring motif in the film malcomax xerxeserces x for x to see

[01:22:44] maria xmas room 66 the x simon draws on his arm and at the end it's revealed that the

[01:22:50] rave was held in what is otherwise a triple x horn emporium okay i looked it up

[01:22:57] john august is not black oh but he seems to be a little well versed yeah he brings up a lot of

[01:23:04] black a lot of black things which is interesting but he also wrote the movie's big fish corpse

[01:23:12] bride tine a e the charlie's angels 2000 movie wow so there's quite a few bangers he partners with

[01:23:21] tim Burton on occasion frank and weenie yeah big fish frank and weenie and corpse bride those are all

[01:23:28] yeah his movies so awesome okay john stop using the n word i don't care yeah well we could have

[01:23:35] done without that like it wasn't necessary apparently sex is repeatedly a bad omen in the movie

[01:23:43] and ronna and todd talk about sex as a metaphor for betrayal in all their scenes

[01:23:47] i don't give my best friend's head simon is having sex when the hotel room catches on fire

[01:23:52] zack and adam talk about how they both cheated on each other with jimmy and getting their

[01:23:56] revenge on him before running over ronna todd and claire on the stairs before they meet the

[01:24:01] strip club bouncers so it's like a horror movie don't have sex or you'll die yeah yeah
