Look out his only Films to be
0:02
Buried With. Hello,
0:16
and welcome to another episode of Films to Be
0:18
Buried With. My name is Brett Goldstein.
0:21
I am a comic, an actor, a writer,
0:23
a director, a shower curtain fixer,
0:25
and I love films. I agree with
0:28
Nelson Mandela when he once said, yes,
0:30
it is a long walk to freedom, but thankfully
0:33
it's a much shorter walk to my local multiplex.
0:37
I'm currently recording this episode up at
0:39
the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, where I'm here to
0:41
do my brand new stand up show, What Is
0:43
Love, Baby, Don't Hurt Me? Please
0:45
come see the show. If you're coming up, you can
0:47
buy tickets on ed fringe dot com.
0:49
The show is about love, sex, pawn
0:51
and addiction and whether there's a difference
0:53
between the four of them, which obviously
0:56
there isn't bring the kids, We'll have a right
0:58
all time. Definitely don't bring the kids. In
1:01
my podcast, What Happens is if you've
1:03
never listened to it before, I invite a guest
1:05
round to my house, I tell them they've died,
1:08
and then we discussed their life through
1:10
the films that meant the most of them. Upcoming
1:12
guests include Ashling, b Nick
1:15
Helm, Stephen Cree, and Nathaniel
1:18
Metcal But today's special
1:20
guest is the brilliant mister Scrubyus
1:22
Pip. Now. I first met Scrubyus
1:24
Pip when we were both asked to do one of Richard
1:26
Sandling's Perfect movie gigs. If
1:29
you've never seen one of those gigs, Ritchard
1:31
Sanding is a brilliant comedian. He invites some acts
1:33
round to do a gig where they end
1:36
up acting out scenes from their favorite
1:38
film. You can see a load of these on the internet.
1:40
I recommend you check out his stuff. It's brilliant.
1:42
Anyway, Scruby's Pip and I were on We
1:45
saw watched each other from Afar, took
1:47
a shine to each other, awkwardly
1:50
asked each other if we
1:52
could hang out, and then I had an
1:54
idea for something, and then we met up
1:56
and then we made a series of short films
1:58
called Corner Boys with the brilliant John
2:00
Dreever, which you can find on Vimeo. I recommend
2:02
them. We're very proud of them. Anyway, it
2:05
means Scrubious Pip have been working
2:07
together on enough. According to my Wikipedia
2:09
all I am is a collaborator of Scrubious
2:11
Pip. I don't know who did that, except I'm
2:14
pretty much sure it was Scrubious Pip wrote that the
2:16
point is without Scrubious Pip, this
2:19
podcast probably wouldn't have happened. He's
2:21
been incredibly helpful with this. He hooked me up
2:23
with Buddy Peace, my amazing editor and
2:25
producer, with Lisa Lydon, who took the brilliant
2:27
photos, and with Adam Richardson, who does
2:29
all the artwork. So the
2:31
least I could do was invite
2:33
him on the thing. So a
2:36
couple of warnings. Yes, we
2:39
swear sometime grow up.
2:42
Yes we may touch lightly on
2:45
some dark topics, and if that upsets
2:47
you, you might want to skip those bits. There
2:49
also might be some spoilers. I don't think
2:51
there are, but there might be. So if we start
2:53
talking about any films you haven't seen, you might
2:56
want to skip forward those bits in case we ruined
2:58
them for you. But don't just keep been through
3:00
the episode or the who Thing's going to be like forty seconds
3:03
anyway, I'm very grateful that you're listening.
3:05
I thoroughly hope you enjoy the show. And
3:07
now here is episode four of
3:10
Films to be Buried With with the brilliant
3:13
Scrubyest Pip, Hello,
3:26
and welcome to Films to be Buried with. I
3:28
am Brett Galsted, and I'm enjoined by a very special
3:30
guest, one of the biggest podcasters
3:32
in the world, himself, a
3:35
rapper, a poet, an
3:37
artist, an actor, a
3:41
merchandise salesman. Yes,
3:44
and according to my Wikipedia page,
3:46
my collaboratory, indeed
3:49
it's Scrubyest pit Hello, Brett,
3:51
how are you? Thank you for coming on this day? No
3:54
problemat I'm excited, really
3:56
appreciate you coming all this way. Always
3:58
always like to foo them up
4:00
my status as collaborator. I
4:03
don't want that coming off your Wikipedia. So we've
4:05
got a collaborator or something at least every
4:07
two years. My Wikipedia literally
4:09
says Brett Gostein done
4:12
something and collaborator and scrubis
4:14
Pips collaborator. I think. I think all I've done
4:16
is collaborate. I love it. It was
4:19
nothing to do with me. I've not I've not made that happen.
4:21
That's just that's just the facts.
4:24
It is. Well, listen Corner Boys, which if you've
4:26
not seen, you should watch. We've made a series of films
4:28
Conoys. My career
4:31
is a fair enough that that's on my Wikipedia
4:33
I lovely it
4:35
comments about it from every
4:37
time my team tend to meet a comedian
4:40
that I'm excited to meet and I
4:42
like, because you're a comedian, and you
4:44
know, all of them they've watched it and
4:46
they've always been like I just I really loved Corner
4:48
Boys. Always like, I
4:51
think you're great. Nice
4:53
thinks about me
4:55
at some point. Yeah,
4:57
I need your grandmar beard a bit. Yeah, so
5:00
you like films bloom and
5:02
love them, but yeah, films, I love
5:04
them. I think they're great. It's one of the things
5:06
that we probably first connected
5:09
over, and one of the things we got into deep
5:11
debates on was that both of us
5:13
the end of year film lists, and those
5:15
lists aren't purely look
5:17
how clever and cool I am. That there
5:19
will be some blockbusters in there, there might
5:21
be some kids films in there, and I
5:24
like that genuineness of here's
5:26
just the films I've enjoyed the most. I make a point of saying,
5:29
mind of years films, this is the films
5:31
I enjoyed the most at the cinema.
5:33
So it's really clear, I'm not saying that
5:37
this film is artistically the best in generally
5:39
it's artistically great it will be on there because I'm enjoyed
5:42
it. Yeah, but you'll get people
5:44
furious about it every time because like, how
5:46
can you have Let's singing
5:48
there? And I was like, because sing was
5:50
the most fun I had in the cinema last year.
5:53
It was wonderful, things great, I loved it,
5:55
But that was one of the ones. I think the year
5:57
before I was one of the few people who enjoyed
5:59
a particular X Men film and had people
6:02
furious. I can't think
6:04
it wasn't the one, the one that people didn't like his
6:07
X Men Pucket. Yeah, it wasn't that.
6:09
It was the one before that, so people liked
6:11
it. Was the one that had the slow motion scene
6:13
that was amazing the first time you had Quicksilver
6:16
in there and he's he's running around and doing
6:18
all this stuff. So it would have been days
6:20
of Future Past yea. So it was that one.
6:23
I really enjoyed it, and again it's fairly well
6:25
received, but it was in there over some
6:28
of the artif films
6:30
I went to see because I enjoyed them, but I had more
6:32
fun. Yeah, watching
6:35
that guy run around in slow motion with a Bob Dylan
6:38
song on or whatever it was. Yeah, that was a great
6:40
a great scene, great cracking fun.
6:43
So you love films,
6:45
yes, make films? Yeah,
6:48
I do. I get to be in films now.
6:50
Literally, as we were about to start this,
6:52
I got a message from
6:54
a director called Erwan who's
6:57
I did a film with it's not out yet
6:59
called Kill ben Like and he's
7:02
working on the on the credit
7:04
sequence, and he showed me my opening opening
7:07
credit, which is hugely exciting for me because, as you
7:09
know, I'm new into films, but I'm
7:12
ridiculously excited about it. And the
7:14
reason a few of my roles
7:16
have grown is because of that excitement, because
7:19
most people in the industry can
7:22
be a little bit, oh god, this cool
7:24
time is outrageous. I've not
7:26
been. I've been. I've been. I've been waiting
7:29
for four hours and they got me in at
7:31
six and on They're like, the film
7:33
being made, how funs this? And
7:35
that's genuinely got me bigger,
7:38
bigger parts, because I'm the one that's like, I don't care
7:40
you made me wait, as I'm a just one. I've worked
7:42
in factories. Yeah this is fun.
7:45
There is a sort of cliche joke
7:47
about actors, but it's completely true, which
7:50
is completely true that when actors.
7:52
Actors are desperate for jobs and the sins
7:54
they get the job, the first thing they look up is when they're
7:57
off. Day is where the day off? Yeah, yeah,
8:00
yeah, yeah, It's very strange. Completely.
8:02
I did a big post when I Walked
8:05
Like a Panther came out, which was my first
8:07
film, and I did a big post just because
8:10
it only hit me the week before how much it meant
8:12
to me. Because it was on at my local cinema, which
8:14
is where I've gone on awkward first dates. It's
8:16
where I had to go outside
8:18
to throw up because I'd eaten too
8:21
many pop brownies before Kevin Smith All
8:23
Nighter. It's where you know, It's where
8:25
I go on my own every birthday to watch a film
8:27
in the morning, because that's what I like to do on my birthday.
8:29
And the fact that this film I was in and
8:32
in a small part, but the fact I was in it, I was
8:34
on there met the world and I got a message
8:36
off one of the more higher up
8:38
cast members to kind of thank
8:40
me for it, because they were saying, when
8:43
you've been in it a while, all you're looking at is how
8:46
the reviews are, how the turnout is by
8:48
the people thinking all that and you forget that it's
8:50
just cool to be part of this. And it was a film that got mixed
8:52
reviews, like some people hated it,
8:55
but it's not a film for the critics as such.
8:57
So did you guys see here you're like a cinema
8:59
No, because I'd gone to the
9:02
premier. I was going to go and see it with Chris
9:05
who also has a podcast and you've been on his podcast
9:07
and hardcore listing, but I
9:09
just wasn't about so as one of them
9:11
and I'm awkward. I was watching
9:13
myself anyway, So it's one of them where the premier
9:16
was awkward enough and was made
9:18
more comfortable and enjoyable because I had
9:20
just the overwhelming pride
9:22
of watching mates of mine
9:25
on the screen. So Rob Parker is
9:27
brand new TIS as well, and he's got a bigger
9:29
role in it, and it was just the pride
9:32
of watching everyone diluted the
9:34
awkwardness I felt every time I came on screen
9:36
was Oh, I generally forget I was in it, and then I'd
9:38
pop up and be like, is
9:41
this quite
9:44
difficult because you often arrive and
9:46
you have to stand in front of the audience that
9:48
are about to watch your film and you haven't
9:51
necessarily seen the film. You sort
9:53
of have to stand and be like, hey, how's it going, and then
9:55
you have to sit with them for the first
9:57
time, and it might but
10:00
yeah, right there, it's a weird
10:02
one as
10:04
Yeah, that was my first ever experience of that, and
10:06
that was enough for now.
10:09
I didn't particularly have any desire to go immediately
10:11
and see it at my local and I always a
10:13
few of the people at my local cinema
10:16
know that I'm scrubious pipe not
10:18
load. But every now then I'll
10:20
get a tweet, So I hope you enjoyed your feel I
10:23
enjoyed your ice cream, which is always nice, but it
10:25
made me feel feel more conscious of
10:27
going. Yeah, and I like to go in the
10:29
day when it's at
10:32
it's most quiet. So my dream,
10:34
my dream scenario is it's an empty screen, which
10:37
is then darker if it's the film I'm in
10:39
and they're all aware that I've gone to see it and no
10:42
one else has come to see it. So it's that weird
10:44
paradox that my dream scenario would
10:46
be that it's a massive
10:49
failure and no one's going to see
10:51
it, So yeah, I just avoid him. The
10:53
premier of depends with that's your first film.
10:55
How was that watching it? And I really enjoyed
10:58
it again, it was a film that working
11:00
on it was such a family
11:04
feel. It was genuinely I made a lot of mates.
11:06
I got to work with Guz Khan, who
11:08
is amazing and we'd not met and he's
11:10
become a firm friend now, and Neil
11:13
fitz Morris, who's done some of the best
11:16
things every every scene I was with Gus
11:18
and Neil, so had really
11:20
close friendships built there already
11:23
knew and loved Stevie Graham and Rob Parker
11:25
and it was just so many just lovely
11:28
people. So the premiere was
11:30
just nice to see everyone. Did
11:32
you when you first like appeared on Spain? We're
11:34
like, oh god, yeah, because I was there
11:37
with the girlfriend and that's even
11:39
more awkward and nerve wracking and just
11:41
gonna be it was nice. I felt a bit
11:44
more relaxed because I was in the trailer
11:46
unexpectedly and it was one of the bits
11:48
in the trailer that was getting a good
11:50
the best reaction. It was one of the funny bits because the
11:52
trailer I was has to tell the story and not give
11:54
away all the gags. Yeah, so I was
11:57
one of the gags and it went down well, So it's that kind
11:59
of all right. Well, least I know I've got at least
12:01
one amusing the scene, and
12:03
I've forgotten how much I'm in it, or
12:06
didn't know how much I was in it because there was so
12:08
much improvised and being
12:10
aware that generally improvisation all
12:13
gets cut out. So there was tons of
12:15
improvisation and me and gas Karna
12:17
to do a load of press on the lead
12:19
up, and when we met out we
12:22
were like, we are we even
12:24
in this because we're doing a lot of press? Are they
12:26
like c gid us into loads of extra
12:28
scenes in the background. But yeah, it
12:30
was nice. I enjoyed it great. And did your
12:32
girlfriend like it? Yes, it's
12:35
a very northern film and she's very
12:37
northern, so it's a perfect combination. It worked
12:40
nicely. I'd imagine if if you went at
12:42
the end she said, I don't think anymore,
12:45
may be intense, I wouldn't it,
12:47
And imagine at that point you were like, no, I'd get
12:49
it. I agree, completely
12:52
understand. Yeah, it was. It
12:54
was a lovely night and Stevie
12:57
Graham wasn't there because he was off shooting a film,
13:00
but unexpectedly, so his son came
13:02
out because his son plays him as a kid
13:04
in the film. So his son came out a dressed
13:06
as a wrestler and screamed and
13:08
dad had a video scent
13:12
from Steven. It's a film about a wrestling
13:14
And I sat next to Stevie's a wife
13:17
and his kids and all that, and they hadn't
13:19
seen this video. So the excitement of his wife, Hanna,
13:21
who's also and it was like, what what's going on? And
13:23
then it was Stevie saying, I hope you'll
13:25
enjoying it. I just have to give you some bad
13:27
news that I've left the British wrestling team scene
13:30
and I've tagged up in American
13:32
wrestling with my new tag team partner. And it
13:34
was Tom Hanks to
13:36
Tom Hanks's gang Smashing
13:39
Brothers. We're going to smash it and just and it was just again
13:41
how exciting to start start? Yeah,
13:44
that's the real Tom Hanks. So
13:47
yeah, that was all fun. Where was
13:49
it? It was in Manchester, which
13:51
was really good as well because they were like, well,
13:53
it's a blood in Northern films, so
13:55
why are we doing the premiere in London? So
13:58
I liked that. I liked the feeling of going this is
14:00
probably north. That's all really exciting.
14:03
By time, I am afraid that you died.
14:07
You died, Oh mate, I'm so sorry.
14:09
That's sad. How did you die? Um?
14:11
Suicide doesn't
14:14
surprise me? What
14:16
was it?
14:19
S What happened? Um?
14:22
Well, I did it in a quite
14:24
a fun way, Okay, I
14:27
got drunk. Yeah, and then I set
14:29
up a load of different traps around
14:31
my house and ways to kill me, and then I went to sleep.
14:34
So I woke up. I didn't remember where any of them are, so
14:36
it would be a genuine surprise. Did you find the destination
14:38
yourself? Yeah? Yeah, so what
14:41
it was? I woke up a bit groggy. I
14:44
was what's what's what's going on here? And I could
14:47
smell gas? Yeah. Also
14:49
I went and checked. I turned it all off, as all right, I need
14:51
to get out of the house. I'm
14:53
going to die of inhalation of of
14:55
of gas fume. So I opened the door. I've
14:58
only gone to sell it. Tap matches on the bottom
15:01
of the door, didn't I in a little sand paper
15:04
blew myself up. I mean,
15:07
certainly the coolest death. Yeah, I knew myself
15:09
though, didn't I know I'd be sensible when go I need to
15:11
leave. Yeah, so what it done is turned off
15:13
the gas. I thought I've stopped this, I've
15:15
got out of it. But as
15:18
you know from from from Final Destination,
15:20
you can't dodge death. It'll find
15:22
you. So yeah,
15:25
man, you blew yourself up. Yeah, blew
15:28
myself up. And the nice part of that is
15:30
no one or no it was a suicide unless
15:33
they listen to the podcast what
15:36
HOWLD? How
15:38
old are you when you die? I'm
15:41
literally doing it next week. Okay,
15:45
so just before I turned thirty seven? Okay,
15:48
how do you feel about death generally? Is
15:50
it something that scares you? Say it forward to No.
15:52
No, I genuinely, and I say this a lot, and it
15:55
sounds dark and horrible. I find life far
15:58
more scary than death. I don't have any beliefs of
16:00
after life, so death is kind of doesn't
16:02
seem that scary because it just it's just one moment.
16:05
It's one moment that Yeah,
16:07
yeah, completely, I'm far more scared at the idea
16:10
of I'm thirty the
16:12
fix. As I just said, I'm
16:14
pretty knackered. Yeah, the
16:16
thought of another thirties for six years
16:18
to me is unimaginable and genuinely
16:21
it's something that if I start thinking about
16:23
that's kind like all jokes said. If I start thinking
16:25
about those kind of things, it keeps me awake at night
16:27
because it just makes like, oh, man, you
16:29
don't have death, you have life. Yeah,
16:32
living long yeah, yeah, completely, and I
16:34
do. It's that weird thing. I think we've got a weird obsession
16:36
with living longer and
16:38
longer into something I
16:40
don't know why. And not to sound
16:42
like a hippy, I think it's more important to make the most of the time
16:44
you're here rather than spend all the time
16:47
you're here trying to extend it. Yeah, when
16:49
you're not actually doing anything other than don't
16:51
extend in it. So I do. I'm into fitness
16:53
and I try and eat healthier now, but that's
16:55
to get more enjoyment of my time on
16:57
earth and to have sexier body.
17:00
While I'm on to not caring
17:02
about another I'm
17:04
not caring about another five years on
17:07
the end of it. On the end of it, when you you
17:10
might not be able to move, shitting
17:13
yourself and some pleasant yeah, don't one
17:15
another five years there. I think
17:18
I agree with you, but I also think
17:21
you might get to the shitting elf stage and you'll
17:24
still want to live and really enjoy it. People
17:26
do, people do, don't They Generally
17:29
people don't go kill me. There's
17:31
something to do. But again I think I think that's often
17:34
due to a sense of you've
17:36
not achieved all that you wanted to
17:38
achieve and things like that, and not in a dickway.
17:40
It's one of the things that motivates
17:42
me. It's why I work all the time and work so
17:44
much so I can always feel i'd
17:47
happily draw a line under it. Now I've done some
17:49
cool things. I've had a book
17:51
out, I've had a film on at my local cinema
17:54
yea, and things like that. It's those kind of numb Do
17:57
you think there's sting themselves again?
17:59
Fucking it? And this startup podcast?
18:02
Yeah, probably, that's one of
18:04
the main things I've got, this this
18:06
podcast that constantly changes
18:08
people's life. People
18:10
do say that to me, and I always
18:12
think, but you know, sorry,
18:15
you read the death their deathbed
18:17
thing that people and you know
18:20
that nurse right about the five things
18:22
he hears most and people's deathbeds,
18:24
isn't I always i'd worked less?
18:26
Yeah, Yeah, And I always think about you and me and
18:28
think would we say that. I do think we'd go. I
18:31
didn't do enough work. Yeah, No, I'm not that
18:33
good at I don't find that much enjoyment.
18:36
I'm not great at relaxing. Let's say I always
18:38
remember I had when I was touring
18:40
a lot. The festival got canceled
18:43
and it gave me an unexpected a
18:45
weekend off, and
18:47
I genuinely felt in barriss because
18:50
I didn't know how to fill that time. I didn't
18:52
have any TV series I was wanting to watch.
18:54
It wasn't it wasn't a weekend, it was a mid mid
18:57
week one. So all my friends have got real jobs. I'm not
18:59
someone that's just all these friends who were just
19:01
about all the time. So
19:03
yeah, I had two days and it was horrible
19:06
because I genuinely felt embarrassment because
19:08
at that point it was when I was
19:10
doing music, and it's constant touring
19:12
and then working on an album, then touring,
19:15
and then festival season and then touring.
19:17
So I felt genuinely embarrassed that I don't
19:20
know how to relax anymore. There's no films out
19:22
that I want to see, there's no TV. I hadn't
19:24
prepared for this. If I'd known I was going to have a week off, I
19:26
would have been recalling a TV series.
19:28
I would have had it on a series and I'd have stuff, stuff ready.
19:31
But I kind of just you,
19:34
isn't it. I'm looking at
19:36
the day that you're back to work. But
19:38
I think it's the key. I'm going to keep interructing you because
19:42
season podcasts. No. I
19:44
think the key as well is it depends on what
19:47
your work is. If if you've made
19:49
your life so that you
19:51
your work is stuff that you're proud of and excited
19:53
about, then that's that's different. I think people who
19:55
are saying I wish I'd work less, so people who've worked in
19:57
jobs but that they hate. And we have a
20:00
the thing in society. I
20:03
keep giving an example, Dan the Sack,
20:05
my form of music
20:07
partner. He makes a lot of his income from
20:09
Twitch, which is people are
20:12
watching him play computer games online. And
20:15
people's general reaction to that is that and
20:18
that's a job, is it? Why
20:20
do we have this perception that jobs should be something
20:22
that you dislike and don't enjoy it
20:24
and dread. If a job can be
20:26
something that you enjoy, that
20:28
should be a good thing. And my reaction was the same.
20:30
At first, I was like, what you play
20:33
games and people pay to That's
20:35
how you make a living. And then I was like, I should
20:37
be clapping. I should be applauding because you've found
20:39
a way to make your job something
20:41
that you enjoy and excited about and passionate
20:43
about. That's what jobs should be. But we do have a
20:45
weird thing in society these days.
20:48
That is, if it's not making
20:50
you miserable, it's not
20:52
really work, is it.
20:53
Yeah, well it's the word work
20:55
in it. It
20:58
could do. It could be as fun.
21:00
It could be you could start
21:02
a podcast. Guys. Okay,
21:05
So he died in the Final Destination
21:07
ESK in
21:09
back accident. Yeah, and there's no
21:11
after lad for you out
21:13
Yeah shame. Let's
21:16
imagine you're wrong, right, and
21:18
there is okay? And in this after
21:21
life they're banging to films. Yeah,
21:23
brilliant, and they sort
21:25
of we're interesting people's lives through the media,
21:28
but film, you see, that's an after life I can get
21:30
into. Ye enjoy
21:32
it. I'm glad you're going to soon because you're gonna
21:34
love it. And the first thing I
21:36
would ask is what is the first
21:38
film you remember seeing? The
21:41
first film I remember seeing Ever is the
21:44
Black Cauldron, Oh my
21:46
god, and I adored
21:48
it, and I adored Gergy, the character
21:50
Gurgi a little, a
21:52
little I don't know what he is. It's
21:54
amazing. I've got a little I've got a little on
21:57
my phone. I'm bringing it up up now.
21:59
It's not it's not podcast gold, but I've
22:03
got a little picture
22:05
that is a quote from It's a
22:07
frame from the film I like. I
22:09
like posting online sometimes just quotes
22:12
from films or or a little
22:14
screenshot from a film. And one
22:16
of the ones I've got that I've not posted posts
22:19
it's actually a little gift. It's Gurgy with
22:21
his back turned and it just says
22:24
Gurgi has no friends friends,
22:27
and he's just sad and Gurgi he's
22:29
really into his apple. It really likes
22:31
an apple a lot. And yeah,
22:34
like a was considered like the Bad
22:37
Time at Disney, and it was the last one before
22:39
they sort of restarted and did a little Manmade
22:41
and or the hits ever since. But I fucking
22:44
loved That's why it's my it's my favorite,
22:46
I think because it was the first time they
22:49
stepped kind of a little bit outside of the Disney
22:51
formula, I guess, which again I'm completely on
22:54
board with. I think Disney films. Again, I
22:56
think they're great. They do exactly what they need
22:58
to do. But it is a weird I'm because
23:00
I thought i'd imagined it at one point because
23:02
he gets it doesn't get talked about at
23:04
all, and it was around the same time as Sword
23:07
in the Stone, and I'd confuse them
23:09
a little bits. But no, Yeah,
23:11
I loved it. They also have a
23:14
forgotten film called The black Hole. Yes, this
23:16
needs a black hole as dark as fuck?
23:18
Yeah, which ends, if I may,
23:21
with a spaceship going into
23:23
a black house. Well and they all basically
23:26
die slightly. Yeah, that's horrific, isn't
23:28
it. Kids film? It's not very Disney. No,
23:31
but it's I guess it's teaches you don't don't
23:33
go into black hole. Yeah, and that's
23:35
something that we do need to low, we do need
23:37
to drive into. Well, in fairness,
23:40
how many people have been in a black house since The black Hole came out?
23:42
Yeah? True, it worked? True? What
23:45
is the film that scared
23:47
you the most? Now, this is not
23:49
good for podcasting because
23:52
it's it's it's black
23:54
cauldron again, because I remember just being genuinely
23:57
scared at the time, scared and sad
23:59
because of the trouble that
24:01
Gurgy gets in the fear. It
24:03
was weird because have
24:06
you seen it recently? I haven't,
24:08
okay, but I just remember that that Gergie
24:10
was such a particularly as a kid's
24:12
the He's the fluffy one. He was a character
24:14
that you could relate to so much, or I
24:17
felt I could, but he wasn't the lead, so I
24:19
think you're meant to relate to the young
24:21
boy. But Gurgi is then the one that
24:23
gets in really dangerous situation
24:25
and it's really sad and really emotional, and
24:27
I remember, yeah, genuinely being scared
24:30
of feeling really uncomfortable for
24:33
that one. I'm not going to answer the Black Cauldron
24:35
for all of okay, well all of the questions.
24:39
Just put the black couldron one put
24:42
that back on again? I
24:44
mean, if the next one is what is the
24:46
film that made you cry the most, don't tell me why
24:49
got in trouble? No, this
24:52
is one that I had to toil over a lot
24:54
because I cry it a lot in films.
24:56
I love it. It's one of the things I like about films. I
24:58
like getting emotionally engaged.
25:01
I also cry a lot during Undercover
25:03
Boss, the TV show.
25:06
I like these things, but I
25:09
couldn't think of many films where I cry
25:11
repeatedly and multiple times.
25:14
So I went with one that I've
25:16
watched multiple times and
25:18
cried every time, because I thought that's a good test
25:20
because often you'll cry on the first one. After
25:23
that you're hardened to it and you're expected
25:26
and awkwardly, it's super Bob,
25:28
which is your film,
25:31
and genuinely the bit where and
25:34
spoilers, the bit where super
25:36
Bob has just done his big awkward speech
25:38
in his mum's home and then
25:40
they're dancing and they
25:43
start to float. Every time it
25:45
tears me out, and it's happy to hear
25:47
is because it's a beautiful scene and it's it's meant
25:49
to be an unapologetically
25:52
nice and up quite literally uplifting
25:54
scene. And that's the one that every time
25:56
I've watched that film five
25:58
or six times, and every time that scene as
26:00
emigrant, there's
26:05
enough you
26:07
get to go but yeah, yeah,
26:13
thank you, it's going to be lovely. But
26:15
yeah, that was that was the one that got me. And there's a few points
26:18
along it and it's nice because it's it's I genuinely
26:20
I cry a lot more happy
26:22
scenes and a beauty than sadness.
26:26
Sadness, I think I can detach myself and watch
26:28
artistically a lot more in films.
26:32
Although if I was to give a
26:35
back up a side one, there's
26:40
a few in my list that I've got that I'm torn between.
26:42
But this, this has only just come to mind. But a recent
26:45
one that made me cry,
26:47
and it was The Florida Project.
26:50
Oh my god. And it's because the
26:53
acting in it can't be acting.
26:55
By about halfway through, you're like, well, this isn't acting. This
26:58
is so improvised. So it then
27:00
meant that when the little girl cries at
27:02
the end, you're not watching a little girl
27:04
pretend to cry in a film. You're watching a little
27:06
girl cry. And that just hit
27:09
me in a surprising way, because of I
27:11
said, it was the whole film of the realism
27:13
throughout that. Then there I couldn't detached
27:17
from it and go, oh, it's a film, it's art. It's like that
27:20
poor girl. The Florida Project I think
27:23
will hold out as one of the greatest films of time.
27:25
Yeah, I'm standing by that, and and
27:27
and again it was exciting for me because
27:30
I really in my Films of the year previously
27:33
was Tangerine, Yeah, and I
27:35
loved that, but there was one of them. You're like, well,
27:38
he found a couple of really good people
27:40
in the leads, and it's quite unnatural. It's
27:43
you're really just relying
27:45
on the cast that you've put together. How
27:48
much of it is actually the director and this and that?
27:50
And then the Florida Project did exactly the same
27:53
essentially. Again, if you watched that standalone, you might go,
27:55
well, he's lucked out there because he's
27:57
found It's like, no, he's done it twice.
28:00
Now they're fantastic,
28:02
They're good, Yeah, amazing,
28:05
he's a magic What is the
28:08
film that is
28:10
meant to be bad? Like critically people that said
28:12
ship film, But you're like, I fucking love it. I don't
28:14
care what do you say? Yeah? Now again,
28:17
I came up with two here because it's again it's one I
28:20
struggled with because, as I said, I don't
28:22
believe in guilty pleasures. No, I don't believe
28:24
in any of that cunning. I thought about going
28:26
with Green Lantern, okay, because
28:30
that's Greenhole is
28:34
with Ryan Reynolds. But I
28:36
thought about it, and I thought I didn't love
28:38
it. I just didn't hate it, and everyone said
28:40
it was the worst thing ever. And I went ready
28:43
because I go and see every superhero film. The only
28:45
reason I've seen Super Bob because
28:48
I go and see all of them. I went ready
28:51
for it to be awful, and I enjoyed it. I
28:53
thought it was good. I didn't think it was bad, but I
28:56
kind of I wrestled with that I didn't love
28:59
it. So one that I've come up
29:01
with is one that I have a
29:03
theory that the poor quality
29:06
of it was part of the marketing technique
29:10
to get people to watch it. No,
29:15
it's bright, which the
29:18
Will Smith one. Yeah, I really enjoyed it.
29:20
I thought it's good. I liked everything about it.
29:23
And my thought was, if
29:26
you've got a film that's
29:28
got some big stars in, that's a big, big budget
29:30
film, and it's on a service
29:32
that you've already paid for, then
29:36
everyone's saying initially it's the worst film
29:39
ever. You're going to tune
29:41
in. People go, I'll give that look
29:43
because you've already paid for It's it's definitely
29:45
if it's in the in the cinema, although a
29:48
suicide squorld would say otherwise, But in general,
29:50
it's definitely if it's in the cinema. But yeah,
29:53
I genuinely just thought everyone saying
29:55
it's awful, you're generally going to go, all right, well,
29:57
i'll give that a look. That sounds terrible, and then
30:00
you're gonna have them all tweet and go on social media
30:02
defending it, saying it's not awful,
30:05
it's good. And I had that exact
30:07
feeling. I wonder if I
30:09
would have enjoyed it as much if I'd gone in
30:12
with high expectations. So you think it's I
30:14
haven't worked it. You actually think it's good. I loved
30:17
it. I really enjoyed it. I really enjoyed it. Again, it's not
30:19
it might not make it into my Films of the Year,
30:21
but I genuinely enjoyed it. I loved
30:23
the idea that it's
30:26
essentially a Lord of the Rings, but
30:29
hundreds of years on in the future, that world
30:31
has evolved and there is alcs. I
30:33
really enjoyed it. I thought it's good. I thought that's
30:36
executed it. Well, I'm genuinely excited
30:38
to see a follow up. So
30:40
you have gone for bright Yeah, they are doing a
30:42
sequen there. Yeah, and rightfully so,
30:45
because it got a lot of views, and
30:47
again, I genuinely think that that's
30:49
part of a marketing. But that's interesting because I
30:51
think they did an amazing trick
30:54
with the clam Field paradox because
30:59
I was caught up in that. I was
31:01
in America and the super Bowl was on. In the middle of the
31:03
Super Bowl, there was suddenly this advert Clovervield
31:05
Paradox, which we've never heard of them, no
31:08
market thinking, yeah, and it was like, it's gonna
31:10
be on after the super Bowl is like, holy shit, the net
31:12
cover it's gonna be ready in an hour, and
31:14
I brend thing, it's really exciting going
31:17
into something no reviews, no trailers, nothing.
31:19
And then I watched it and I was like, holy shit,
31:22
this is the director DVD Troubled
31:26
Disaster. Yeah, and you've probably
31:28
got millions of millions and millions of millions of people to watch
31:30
it. That was absolutely again
31:33
it's how things should be done
31:36
in a lot of ways. Again, but
31:39
also it took me maybe half
31:41
an hour to sort of go oh, because
31:44
my expectations were like, oh, well, this must be you
31:46
know, they've set it up, that's your way, yeah, And
31:48
I was like, oh, this is
31:50
terrible. Yea dear.
31:53
Yeah, this is a disaster, and I yes,
31:56
I watched it to the end. Of course, I'm
31:58
a little concerned, were of excited
32:01
and concerned with Netflix whoever
32:03
works at Netflix, Yah, their obsession
32:06
with sci fi. Yeah, because I
32:08
think it's meaning a lot of sci fi that wouldn't
32:11
have got made is being made. But I also
32:13
think all sci fi should
32:16
be watched in the cinema.
32:18
It's a genre that it really adds to
32:20
it. And there's you can argue there's others that aren't,
32:23
but it's a genre that genuinely adds
32:25
to it. It's on a big screen, it's really loud and
32:27
quite key, it's really dark because if it's
32:29
grimy and moody sci fi, you're not
32:31
going to see it all on your TV screen, if there's sun coming
32:34
in, if there's all these other influences.
32:36
And that concerns me a bit because and again it's a paradox
32:38
there because it's stuff that maybe I
32:41
wouldn't have got made, but equally
32:43
it's like it's in the wrong place. I am
32:46
very concluded about the Netflix thing because
32:49
I think it all films a bit of the cinema. Yeah,
32:52
and I appreciate that they're making films. That's great,
32:54
but I don't want know what's films on Netflix.
32:57
Annihilation was the one that annoyed me
32:59
because they didn't give it a cinema
33:01
release as far as cinema because
33:03
an America. Yeah, they had an American and
33:06
I don't believe it went with the cinema
33:09
with mute. I went and watched it in the cinema,
33:11
right, and that got loads of
33:13
hate. I enjoyed it. It's good, is it. I
33:16
don't think it's perfect, but I think it's challenging,
33:19
which is going to get a lot of mixed
33:21
reviews. And it's rare in sci fi to have stuff
33:23
that's uncomfortable and
33:25
challenging character wise and story wise.
33:28
But I enjoyed it, and I wondered how much of that was
33:31
because I saw it in the cinema rather than where
33:34
I'm not really paying attention and I'm ready to tweet
33:37
the acts of going to the cinema and sitting
33:40
in the downturn everything and it's an event
33:42
completely and it's all on Netflix. You
33:44
just sort of flick for it, give it, go on board.
33:47
Yeah, Like it's just it's the investment,
33:49
isn't it. Yeah, investment in it, and for me,
33:52
I live in Essex, so that was I
33:54
had to do at least an hour each
33:56
way to go and see that. So that was a real It
33:59
had some meaning to it. And maybe that gives
34:01
you a biased opinion because you're you're so invested
34:04
in it not being rubbish. Yeah, because you've traveled
34:06
for an hour, You've got the one screening
34:08
that's on in this place, and you're traveling all the way.
34:10
So but again I think I agree.
34:13
I think there is a pageantry
34:15
to all of that that and it makes it less
34:17
of an event. It doesn't feel like sometimes
34:19
I've noticed, oh there's a fucking that film
34:22
that No it's a Netflix. It sort of feels like it's
34:24
not a thing. It just kind of happened. I missed it, but
34:27
I didn't miss it. It's just done there. But I
34:29
don't know, there's no big deal
34:31
about it. And it's weird because, yeah, you
34:34
get your own specific scenarios
34:37
and pagetries. It is why I love my
34:40
local cinema. Over I've
34:42
discussed Witheful. I'm not a fan of the Curzons.
34:45
I'm a big fan of their programming. Yeah, but
34:47
part of my passion try for films is getting
34:50
a hot dog and getting to Ben and Jerry's and getting
34:52
a big pepsi and all this food is
34:54
too, all this stupid suff I go there and I'm
34:56
like, I feel I have to sit upright
34:58
in the seats and and I
35:01
react out loud age because
35:04
I just want to get pretended watch
35:08
a film. So yeah, it's my genuine
35:11
I have discomfort in them, even though I loved their programming.
35:14
I think then obviously the best.
35:16
My next question is kind of the opposite
35:18
version, which is what's the film
35:21
that you used
35:23
to love love it and you've seen it
35:25
rerisen and you're going, oh my god, I was so right.
35:27
That film does not hold up. Yeah.
35:30
So again, this is another one. I had two, and
35:32
the first one, I'm going to tell you eliminated
35:34
because it was the Garbage Pal Kids movie
35:37
and it came out. I imported
35:39
it on DVD from America and me and my
35:41
brother watched it and it's
35:43
awful. It's a really bad film. It's not good
35:45
at all in any way. And I had
35:47
that on my list and then I thought, oh no, but it was
35:50
it was never good. I'm sure I remember seeing
35:52
at the time again. Oh yeah, So
35:54
that was a film that I was excited
35:56
about them. They're all it's all ready
35:59
people with my I think they're puppets.
36:01
No, no, I think there might be a
36:04
little people with masks on. But yeah,
36:06
it was just bad, but
36:08
it was always bad. So I eliminated
36:11
that. And I've gone for a
36:13
film that you might not know called
36:15
Just Ask for Diamond. I fucking
36:18
just asked for Dame and yes.
36:21
And the thing is it's got
36:23
a couple of great, quippy
36:25
lines that are really appealing to a
36:27
kid at the time, yet when
36:30
you actually watch it later on, it is just a
36:32
poor attempt at a agent. Clody
36:34
Banks. Yeah, yeah, he's
36:37
a special agent. Yeah, he's
36:39
a tech. He's a detective that charges
36:41
of a flat rate plus expenses
36:43
and my expenses are expensive, which, again
36:45
just at the times are great. And
36:47
then he's been interviewed by the police
36:50
at one point he's being cheeky and I have
36:52
some respect. This is the chief inspector. When
36:54
he goes, well, maybe he should go and inspect some
36:57
chiefs. Then a
36:59
kid, I was like, yes, this is such good
37:02
writing. As a grown up, I'm like, it's not
37:04
great writing. I
37:06
remember it was a lot of the Moral Press
37:09
Game, so there was a lot of crossover
37:11
from people who in the Press game because
37:15
that was the trailer that was on all vhs.
37:18
Yeah a certain time. Just man,
37:22
yeah it Fleer Lexter
37:25
Fletcher was in it. Let me ask Christ and stud
37:28
Yeah. But
37:30
yeah, it is one that the
37:34
reality is the two
37:36
quotes I've just just given is all you just
37:39
you've heard them now, you don't really need to watch it. There's
37:42
not a lot more depth than that. That's great. I
37:44
remember really watching it quite a while
37:46
later and going, this
37:48
wasn't great. Maybe
37:50
I'll revisit again, and I would have re refined
37:53
tastes, and because because when I rewatched
37:55
it, it was when I was in my period of everything
37:58
I was watching was subtitled
38:01
and foreign language, and I was like, oh, it's just
38:04
so maybe so maybe i've I've I've
38:08
softened now that I can enjoy. Can I just
38:11
there's a chainsaw masca happening behind Yeah,
38:13
I don't know if it's going to affect I'm sure it'll be fouling
38:16
weird direct enough. If you hear it a
38:18
chainsaw going on the background, don't worry
38:20
about it. That
38:22
was was one of my other plans. Yeah,
38:26
we walked in the wrong That's
38:29
a great answer. Okay, what
38:32
is the film that has the most meaning
38:34
for you because of the context in which
38:36
you saw it? So it could be like a first date
38:39
you went on. The film might itself
38:41
not be important, but you have a good memory of it because
38:43
of the experience of watching it. Yeah,
38:46
this is the one I struggled over the most,
38:49
and I because I'm always like
38:52
the first. The original one I came up with was
38:55
the first Batman film because I saw
38:57
it in a drive through cinema in America,
39:00
Wow, where you have to tune
39:02
in the radio of your car to get the audio.
39:06
With my family, I was there on holidays as
39:08
kids, me mother other and my mum and dad and
39:10
it was a drive through and it's still this Where
39:12
was that no invented drive It would
39:15
have been in Florida, I guess, but because we
39:17
went there for Disneyland, we just went over for Disneyland
39:20
and that, and it was really in mental and there aren't
39:22
many of them left now, so it was amazing.
39:24
But I then thought of another one
39:27
that I wasn't sure if I wanted to get into,
39:29
because it's the one that actually means the
39:32
most to me. And so
39:35
it was only a few years back, about four
39:37
or five years ago, I was in a relationship and we've
39:39
been I won't go into huge details, but we've been through
39:41
something horrific. We
39:45
it was hard for us to talk to each
39:47
other. We've got back from, you
39:49
know, some horrible events and all
39:53
the normal things that you'd you know, I'm
39:55
quite irreverent or jokey that
39:57
you try and break the ice
40:00
with as well working
40:02
I'm a big fan of pizza and ice cream,
40:05
older in food. It wasn't really doing it. It wasn't
40:07
even charming. That kinding is stuff that if you're feeling
40:09
down, it can cheer you up. And we were sitting
40:11
there kind of staring at the TV
40:14
and not watching anything and just eating, and
40:17
I was like everything i'd try and suggest,
40:20
my heart wasn't in. You know, normally
40:22
i'd be the one in any situation.
40:24
I feel I'm quite a resilient, I'd
40:26
be the one to go, I'm positive, let's let's
40:28
bring this up. But I didn't have that in me. So if
40:30
everything I was suggesting was halfhearted.
40:33
And we looked on sky at what films were
40:35
on and we slung on what
40:38
we Do in the Shadows, and we cried
40:41
with laughter from beginning to end,
40:43
and it just meant the absolute world because it was not
40:46
to sound hover damatic. It was at a time where it genuinely
40:48
felt I'm never going to laugh again, I'm
40:51
never going to be happy again. And it was just I
40:53
didn't know anything about it. The guy Paul
40:56
Vickery, who who runs the Prince
40:58
Charles Cinema or I used to
41:00
do a film night. He said to me a
41:02
few weeks before, I was like, we've just had this film, what
41:05
we're doing in the Shadows. It's hilarious. I was annoyed because
41:07
there was a day as in London and had a choice between
41:09
that or a blockbuster, and I went with the blockbuster
41:12
and he just said it's great. So it was
41:14
one of them ones that was on Sky demand
41:16
at the same time as it was in the cinema. Too
41:19
much information. But because of that, I thought,
41:21
oh, head, he said that was good
41:23
will sling that on and yeah, it
41:25
just it was just hilarious
41:27
and beautiful and brilliant, and it genuinely it
41:30
meant the world at that moment because
41:32
it was yeah, and it generally brightened
41:35
up the whole day. Obviously didn't solve
41:37
any of the problems or issues, but I think
41:39
it, Yeah, it moved
41:42
us along a lot quicker because there would have been
41:45
a longer kind of period of mourning
41:47
as such kind of thing. And yeah,
41:49
I said he didn't solve all the problems. The
41:52
relationship ended anyway at some point
41:55
down the line, so it's not like it was this bit but at
41:57
that time, man, I don't think
41:59
another film it could
42:02
have done that. If I put on one of my
42:04
favorite laugh along films,
42:06
it would have been I know it all. It's not it's not as funny,
42:09
but yeah, it's interesting. Is James Acaster
42:11
did this podcast and I think his answer to this
42:13
was Boy, which is by the same
42:16
director. Yeah take a work, Yeah
42:18
yeah, yeah him take
42:21
And so that's two two
42:23
times people's lives and Boy
42:26
was as great as as well. I
42:28
watched that after all of his other
42:30
ones. So for me, it was a
42:32
slight let down, just because
42:35
I think he is someone who's refined and his
42:37
skills and people don't like
42:39
to think of that, and I think Thor Ragnar Rock is
42:41
a genuine prime example of that. It was brilliant.
42:44
People generally think all their small
42:46
indie stuffs the best and then they just sell out
42:48
to go Like, He's someone I feel that's just
42:50
got better and better at it, and though thor
42:53
ragnar Rock was the epitome of that that he got to make
42:57
and it happened to be this big blockbuster
43:01
Superheroes and that. So, yeah, can I go back to the drive
43:04
through please? Because I've never been to one, and I've always
43:06
been curious about it and I used to like always
43:08
think, one of the things I want to do before Iday is going to drive
43:11
Yeah, and then thought about the reason. I thought, do I really
43:13
want to sit in a car with like smelly like
43:16
other cars in the ways that it seems actually
43:18
likes The
43:20
screens are high enough, Yeah, so you can all you're
43:22
all looking and you're looking through your own wind through
43:24
your own windscreen. But at the top I think we
43:27
had a top down option, so
43:30
we might have had a top down I'd
43:32
recommend that for drive throughs if you can. And the
43:35
sound, I said, the sound is on your radio.
43:38
So the one that we went to turn away, it said
43:41
tune into a one or
43:43
four point two, and you tune your radio in, so
43:45
you've got it in your car magic
43:48
and yeah, you can put something else on. But
43:50
yeah, I really enjoyed it. And that was again it
43:53
was excited at the time because it was like, particularly
43:55
then it was pre internet
43:57
and pre all these things. So America was
43:59
this. The world was a lot smaller,
44:02
a lot further away. So a miracle
44:05
was this. I can't believe I'm here.
44:07
What was the film again? Batman? And
44:10
it was at the time that Kiss
44:12
from a Rose was on the radio everywhere
44:15
where we were driving, so it was Batman forever
44:17
you're talking about. Yeah, yeah, it was that. I was
44:19
that the one that Kiss for a Rose was, and you
44:21
see I've forgotten. Yeah, but yeah, whatever
44:23
they weren't They'll kill me. Yeah, Kim
44:25
and Jim carry was it? Is
44:28
that what Kiss for a Rose is in? Yeah, you see
44:30
I remembered that poorly, but in that case, yes, so not
44:32
as good a film, but still that moment.
44:35
Yeah. I
44:37
went to see the first Batman at cinema when
44:39
it was twelve and I was nine,
44:43
and my mom and dad took me and put
44:46
me in a suit. We had a whole thing, but
44:48
my mom said, this is how you'll look twelve, put
44:50
me in a suit and said, here's what a
44:52
cool twelve I would do. Put one
44:55
hand in your pocket, always have one end in your pocket, and
44:57
just stroll. Yeah. And that's how I got into
44:59
it that your parents were trolling
45:01
you at such an earlier age. There
45:04
you go, this all goodness. Just keep
45:07
a straight face. It's really good. And if you just
45:09
put your hand in your pocket, maybe
45:11
you've got any chewing gum to blow blow
45:14
bubbles were gagging me, let candy
45:16
cigarettes? Yeah it take this,
45:19
take this, yo yo, and
45:21
casually, casually, yo
45:23
yo. And when I got to twelve, I thought, how often do
45:25
I have when I end in my pocket? And then I thought,
45:28
so you see, it's
45:31
it's weird you mentioned this because another one that came to
45:33
my mind in this situation was the Matrix
45:36
two. And the reason
45:39
it was memorable, and again
45:42
because you were saying that it's the situation
45:44
rather than the film, was because
45:47
I got, let's
45:49
about a blow job during it? Right,
45:52
this gets better. I was
45:54
annoyed about it. Of course you would
45:56
be. You were watching them fucking number one on watching field.
45:58
But number two. I knew that the only reason
46:00
it had happened was because she was
46:04
being Atlantis Morrisset fan and Atlantis
46:06
had that line that said, would she go down on you in
46:08
a theater? Yeah? And I was like, you're
46:10
only doing this to prove a point in the song,
46:13
which now I'd be like cracking
46:15
whichever song, Go ahead, enjoy yourself.
46:18
But yeah, just to be clear, you had guns.
46:21
Yes, yes it was someone it was someone seeing
46:24
at the time and all that. But yeah, I just
46:26
remember it was hilarious to look
46:28
back at what a precious, poetic
46:32
love driven Tina was that
46:34
I was annoyed that the right meaning
46:37
wasn't behind this. It was no,
46:40
no, it was that it was for the wrong reason. Yeah,
46:43
it was just to like song.
46:45
I want to be like that, right,
46:48
which is terrible. I've never questioned any
46:50
blow job since the motive behind
46:52
them? Where did that? I
46:54
welcomed them? But
46:57
would you welcome him again in a cinema during
46:59
it a film you're enjoying, I mean, how rude
47:02
or what film are we
47:04
watching? Well? I mean example, be made
47:07
it we at what moments? What moment
47:11
having started growing
47:13
your beard back for corners
47:16
clean shaven? What what point
47:18
in the matrix? This is like going like, what are you what are
47:20
you watching? It was early on. It was early on, so
47:23
it wasn't like, hasn't
47:25
gotten any any erotic
47:27
scenes. But yeah, so you've had a black of any
47:29
cinema since. I haven't. I haven't
47:31
had one since. But I'd welcome busy
47:34
just out there. It
47:38
was quite quiet. It's quite enough
47:40
for it to be acceptable that we wouldn't
47:43
get caught, and it wasn't. It was nervous as well. I think it was
47:45
playing into my discomfort, the awareness it
47:47
was purely because of a song, so
47:49
it could it could have been anyone. Did you finish
47:51
Yeah, sure, I mean it's
47:53
a great film. Well the old
47:56
yeah, yeah, yeah, no, yes, both and then just crack
48:01
on yeah yeah yeah. Did you talk about
48:03
it? That was a great film. Yeah.
48:05
I probably expressed annoyance. I probably was
48:08
a bit quiet and a bit grumpy, not
48:10
the reaction someone would expect from such
48:13
a beautiful gift. Yeah that ended,
48:16
yeah, yeah, so yeah, and you didn't
48:19
like then pop down on your needs to go
48:21
down there and there see. No, I'm not that into
48:23
a the
48:27
Jokers. I genuinely am. I think she's she's
48:29
wonderful, and I remember one of the most exciting
48:31
points in my career was she posted a video to one
48:34
of our songs on her website, a
48:37
letter from God to Man, because because she's all religious
48:39
in that and I remember
48:42
remember that time there was a rumor that when we did a gig
48:44
in Canada that that or she'd asked
48:46
to be on the guest our manager and had her ask to be
48:48
on the guest list. And in my mind I
48:51
spotted her at the back of already totally didn't I
48:53
think she was here? I think she came. Did she come? I
48:55
think she came down.
48:57
Yeah, yeah, the
49:00
back of the head every
49:05
time. It's
49:09
really not a fan of coach yet, well,
49:11
I guess that brings us to I guess the answer
49:13
to this question is matefix related.
49:16
But the question is what is the film you found
49:18
sexist? Right? This is my
49:20
genuine answer, And I have to think about this a lot,
49:22
because again, we find a
49:25
lot of detachment from from
49:28
sexiness in films. So it's not like
49:30
I often watching something Oh yeah,
49:32
it's awkward if your parents are watching them
49:35
with you. But yeah, genuinely, the film I
49:37
have found sexist was It's
49:40
not Super Populis was magic?
49:42
Mike XXL okay, genuinely
49:46
right, the bit where it's
49:48
good, it's not as good as the first one, because
49:51
have you seen any of them? Have not seen either magic? Because
49:53
the first one, genuinely it's going to surprise
49:55
you. I think it's a Saturday
49:58
night fever of its time, great in that people
50:01
think it's just oh, it's this sex film.
50:03
The first one, it's kind of heartbreaking and it is
50:05
about drug addiction and being
50:08
poor and having to do things
50:10
you don't want to do. All
50:12
within this there's some sexiness, but I genuinely
50:14
think it's got that. The second one is a bit more
50:16
just look at these sexy boys. There's
50:20
a point in it where Childish
50:23
Gambino is working in the strip
50:26
club and he might think not what
50:28
I think as a sexy bodies.
50:31
He's got arms that look
50:33
as if they're barely lifted
50:35
a pint rather than a weight,
50:39
but he just without
50:42
a top. One that's some poetry and
50:45
that's his lap dance of sort a mental lap
50:47
dance. But the genuinely again not
50:50
ashamed of this. There's a bit, oh
50:53
man, it's awkward that you're on a share at the moment. There's
50:56
there's a bit where he's
50:58
now again. It's The Temptation, and there's a
51:00
bit where Channing is giving
51:02
a woman a dance and
51:05
he gets the chair. He gets
51:07
a chair there, so he
51:09
picks her up and puts her
51:11
upside down facing
51:14
him, so his head is between a standing
51:17
sixty nine standing as
51:20
sixty nine and he's dancing. Everyone's
51:22
like whoa. And then he goes
51:24
to the chair and with one hand he puts
51:26
a hand on the chair and basically does a handstand
51:29
that makes her then be seated.
51:32
Him handstand on the chair in front
51:34
of her and starts gyrating
51:37
into her face, into her face and genuinely
51:39
as just a feat of athleticism
51:41
and all of it. I genuinely thought it was amazing.
51:44
I loved it. I genuinely I wanted to be able to do that.
51:46
I wanted to be Channing Tatum either
51:51
either or I mean thinking about
51:53
it. Yeah, it genuinely. I
51:55
watched it in a hotel
51:57
room with a takeaway pizza whilst
52:00
I was filming a TV show called The Barstard
52:03
Executioner in Wales, and I'd
52:05
put it on like I watched the first one. Better
52:07
become an ongoing joke with a mate of mine,
52:10
and and Natasha
52:12
who loves a Channing Tatum
52:14
and all the girls will watch it for that
52:16
reason. But I genuinely thought, I said, I
52:18
genuinely enjoyed it. I put it on for a joke and
52:21
yeah, I watched it in a hotel room and was like, mate
52:25
that I have that all
52:27
over this pizza pizza
52:30
is yeah,
52:33
did Now you can cut
52:35
this if you want. But I know I think you said this a podcast,
52:37
but you went danced with I have since
52:40
danced with it after seeing
52:42
that. After seeing that, yea. And
52:44
as you will also know, I'm not a big drinker,
52:47
so I was at this part
52:50
and this is a microphone. Yeah, and generally it's all all
52:52
work based. If there's if I'm at the club night
52:55
or we're doing a drunk cast, I'll drink. Other don't know.
52:57
I don't drink. How was that this party? Not
52:59
drink? Hint? And I didn't know that
53:01
that chatting and at the time his beautiful
53:05
a wife were going to be there, and
53:07
I'm not a dancer without a drink. So
53:09
when they arrived and everyone starts dancing, they're
53:11
having a dance and me and Rob Parkers a
53:14
wife were like, we want to go and dance over near
53:16
him and so he can can be their cool mates.
53:19
I literally drank three or four
53:21
drinks in about ten minutes, just down
53:23
in drinks to get drunk enough to be comfortable, because
53:26
I'm not a very comfortable person. And then just
53:28
yeah, I had a bit of a dance to California
53:30
Love and other things like I like that. Did
53:32
he make that contact with you? Yeah, we did have a little
53:34
bit of a and me, him, his wife, Rob
53:37
Parkers, all of us were kind of it was. It
53:39
was a very small gathering,
53:41
so it's not like it was in some big club. It was a
53:44
maximum of a hundred people all there for this.
53:46
God. Imagine if they'd like, you know, when a circle
53:49
forms, yeah, and suddenly everyone
53:51
has did like a dancing imagine that. But you're
53:53
doing that with turning tat him, and then he
53:56
picks me up and does the thing in the chair mate,
53:58
I imagine the
54:01
best thing. And I don't know if I've
54:04
told this, but me and Rob Parker, who I love, who
54:06
have mentioned a lot on this podcast for some reason, he
54:09
said to me, right, and we're going to do
54:11
a thing. I'll copy you, so
54:14
you do any dance moves and I've got a copy you, and
54:17
then I'll do dance moves
54:19
and you've got to copy me. And
54:21
I did my dance moves and he copied me. It
54:24
was fun. And then just as he started
54:26
doing his, he dropped
54:28
his full pint of beer at the feet of Channing
54:31
Tatum and his missus. Channing then
54:33
started to clean it up himself because he didn't
54:35
want to slip and injure himself because he managed misses
54:37
are both professional dancers
54:39
and all this coming and
54:42
literally there was embarrassment and amazement,
54:44
and literally, just as it was cleared up,
54:47
I just went, Rob, I guess
54:49
you'd best get me a beer then, because
54:52
I've got a coffee that now I've got
54:54
to drop a full pint Channing's.
54:56
I didn't, obviously, but I was like, mate, you really
54:59
you pushed the boat out. They're on the coffee and thing
55:01
copy. This is where
55:03
you attracted to him In real life. I
55:07
was attracted And it's sad because I don't know
55:10
them. It genuinely made it sad to
55:12
hear of him and his wife parting
55:15
ways. And they did an announcement and it seemed amicable
55:17
and lovely, but they seemed. I
55:19
looked at both of them and thought, what an amazing
55:21
pair of people and an amazing a
55:24
couple. As I've mentioned
55:26
you, I'm quite uncomfortable even with a
55:28
partner or whatever else on a night out. They
55:30
were just having the most fun. They were
55:32
being silly, they had no airs and graces,
55:34
they'd no I want to try and look cool. They
55:37
were both really good dancers,
55:39
they were both really sexy, they were both had
55:41
really good sense of huers And I just kind of saw that thought,
55:44
what, that's the best couple I've ever
55:46
seen in my life because they were just completely
55:49
comfortable with each other and within
55:52
the room. That's lovely. But yes, that
55:54
they're not together anymore. Yeah, but they
55:56
said it was. They were. It was a lovely
55:59
night. And I hope I've not crossed any boundaries
56:02
of confidence in the things I have said. I
56:04
think it's okay because you've only said lovely things.
56:06
Yeah, yeah, and again it was, Yeah, there was
56:09
nothing bad to be said. It was a lovely evening.
56:11
What is the film that you
56:13
most related to? What's a film where
56:15
you go that's me that it might be the character, it
56:18
might be the vibe, right, the whole film now,
56:21
we joke a lot privately about
56:24
me being a cold
56:27
calculated sociopath.
56:29
Sure, it's a little joke that we have, okay,
56:33
part, But I genuinely
56:35
thought about this and the film I remember relating
56:37
to the most. It was
56:39
gross point blank. Okay, and
56:42
I love I love Cusack in general,
56:45
but gross point blank. Yeah.
56:48
I just adored and in that he is. He's
56:50
walked away from everyone, he keeps himself
56:52
to himself. He's become a killer. He's perfectly
56:54
comfortable with it. Yea. But yeah, I
56:56
loved it as a character. I love it as a film. I
56:58
loved all the music in it, the vibe of all of
57:01
it. He falls in love in the end, so there
57:03
is this happy ending. But
57:06
yeah, that and
57:08
a good that's me. I really feel like that. I really
57:11
felt I connected to it as a character.
57:13
Yeah. Not not that I want to kill people,
57:16
but I can see why some people need to die. Um
57:21
and yeah, yeah, there was just I don't know. It's
57:23
the first I one
57:25
that came to mind when I thought of this. I
57:27
thought of saying anything, but I felt that was
57:30
too complimentary to me. So I
57:32
watched that and related because and I did. It is something
57:35
I watched and you do. I do
57:37
kind of think I want to. I love Lloyd
57:40
Double as a character. That's something to live up
57:42
to, that's someone to try and emulate, But it
57:44
felt too much of an arrogant one to go. I see a lot of myself
57:46
in him, because he is the ultament nice
57:49
guy, he's lovely, he's into kickboxing.
57:52
There was that as well, But yeah, that's
57:55
a great answer, and you couldn't
57:57
have to say anything as well if you wouldn't. I love them both
57:59
in there, then yeah,
58:03
okay, So what is the film
58:05
that you think objectively not? People
58:07
struggle with this question and people some people argue
58:10
with me about it because I guess it's the opposite of the guilty
58:13
pleasure type of thing. Yeah, what do you think it's the greatest
58:15
film of all time? The reason I separate this from
58:17
your favorite is that you know, I
58:20
think, say, Vertigo is one of the
58:22
greatest films of all time. I'm going to watch it every day.
58:25
I think it's fucking amazing and technically
58:27
perfect, etcetera, etcetera. But I
58:30
rather want to call the Rock every day. Yeah, yeah,
58:32
I get you. What do you think is the greatest
58:34
film of all time? I did struggle
58:36
with this a lot for the exact reasons
58:39
you've said, and the film I've gone for is
58:41
the film that is my favorite as
58:43
well, but I think it holds up. I think
58:46
it's remained my favorite
58:48
over other arty
58:50
films, over other blockbust films,
58:53
because it is both and it's it's It's Harvey.
58:55
Yes, I think it's a beautiful film. I used
58:58
to watch it when I
59:00
was working in retail and at points struggling
59:03
with what I wanted
59:05
to do in life where I was going. I'd watch
59:07
it once a week at points because
59:09
it would always put me in a positive
59:11
mood, make me feel positive about
59:13
everything, made me feel positive about being
59:16
a positive person. Because again, it's
59:19
easy, particularly when you're a teen or whatever
59:21
else all of my comedy influences
59:23
and stuff like that, and think, oh, really negative
59:25
and moody and being snark, you know, and a lot of my favorite
59:27
characters in films are nasty, and it's
59:30
easy to think that that's that it's a good way to be
59:32
kind of fuck everyone. And
59:36
Elwood p Dowd in Harvey was
59:38
just beautiful, just the most beautiful character.
59:41
I love the way the story plays out there is
59:43
this kind of twists
59:45
and turns. Is he mental? Is there
59:49
is there a seven foot
59:51
invisible rabbit really
59:54
talking to him? And yeah, that's
59:56
an excellent answer. Adored it, and
59:59
it there's there's
1:00:01
parts. I did a song on my first album called
1:00:04
Are Waiting for the Beat to kick in, and
1:00:08
it's me walking
1:00:10
along in a dream and meeting
1:00:13
characters from films, and
1:00:16
I never say which films
1:00:18
they're from. There's been some some some mystery
1:00:21
over it in the past, but the
1:00:24
reason that I did that song is because
1:00:26
it's meeting all the characters in films that have genuinely
1:00:29
formed me as a person and changed
1:00:31
my outlook. And one of them meet is Lloyd Doubler
1:00:34
because again he's got a brilliant outlook. And one of
1:00:36
them meat is Elwood p. Dowd from
1:00:38
from Harvey and watching
1:00:41
that and hearing him say, my
1:00:43
mum used to say to me and this world, Elwood, you
1:00:46
can be also smart or also pleasant.
1:00:49
For years I was smart, I
1:00:52
recommend pleasant just
1:00:55
blew me away and it generally changed my
1:00:57
outlook. And that's what that song was about.
1:00:59
It sounds like it's just a hey, look at this, these
1:01:02
references to call films you
1:01:04
might not have heard of, but film can
1:01:07
influence you and can change
1:01:10
your life. And it's why I get annoyed at the
1:01:12
kind of the term of idiot box, because
1:01:14
I think there's a reverence and and
1:01:17
and wonder put on novels
1:01:20
and what you can learn from fictional
1:01:22
characters in novels, and I think you can get
1:01:24
that from the right films and from the right TV
1:01:27
shows, and I think it deserves more reverence
1:01:29
and praise in that way, because yeah, as
1:01:31
a kid, I wasn't a big reader, but I watched
1:01:33
a lot of films and they built they
1:01:36
built me a lot as a character. That's
1:01:39
beautiful. You know, Harvey,
1:01:41
you're PSYCHOPATHA no, I
1:01:43
just I just play one. Well, so
1:01:47
with that also can as your film
1:01:49
that you could watch over and over. I didn't want to just keep
1:01:52
going to that because it's my favorite
1:01:54
film, but again, so the film I could watch over and over again,
1:01:56
and it's one of the films I had a film night
1:02:00
Prince Charles Cinema. For a while, I
1:02:02
stopped it, but I might come back to it. And it was
1:02:04
genuinely except for when we screened Super Bob,
1:02:06
it was just generally films
1:02:08
I'd fallen in love with on DVD and never seen
1:02:10
on the big screen. And I do
1:02:13
think, as we've touched upon a lot, the cinema is a
1:02:15
different experience. You're not looking
1:02:17
at your phone. But
1:02:20
yours was I think the most
1:02:23
brilliant screening we had of Super Blow Again.
1:02:25
It was just I'd get these great crowds and we'd do
1:02:27
these q and a's afterwards, even if we haven't
1:02:30
no one involved in the film, because we'd just talk
1:02:32
about the film because of spoilers, you
1:02:34
can't talk about anything online anymore. We go
1:02:37
you're, you're, you're, You're in a room full of people who have just seen
1:02:39
it. Yeah, let's have a chat about it.
1:02:41
And we did that there and I showed
1:02:43
a load of stuff. I showed Leon, which I was
1:02:45
amazing to watch on the big screen. I showed Time
1:02:48
Crimes as the first one we did, which
1:02:50
I found out years later was
1:02:52
the UK premiere of
1:02:55
Time Crimes, because it had never got a cinematic release
1:02:57
over here. And it's why Natchovi
1:03:00
Galdo he did a
1:03:04
video to introduce it and all that. We had loads
1:03:06
of good stuff. We showed Dancer
1:03:08
in the Dark and seeing that one of the big
1:03:11
screen was amazing, irreversible. But
1:03:13
the one there was one
1:03:15
that I was like, is this going to hold
1:03:17
up? Because it's one that I watched constantly
1:03:20
as a Stonor team, So
1:03:22
that's a key element. Turns
1:03:24
out Cheech and Chung films aren't good. It's
1:03:27
the drugs. It
1:03:29
turns out, Yeah, there's a I could go with a lot of
1:03:31
different music there and a lot of other stuff. It's like, it's
1:03:33
because you were really high, and this is one from
1:03:36
that. And I screened it there
1:03:38
and loads of people hadn't seen
1:03:40
it and they all adored it, and the Q and
1:03:42
A. It's the first time I did a presentation at
1:03:44
the start and I had or
1:03:46
was it the end? I had slides
1:03:49
and had a whole thing, and it was dazed
1:03:52
and confused, a great and that's
1:03:54
the film I could watch over and over again, and I have watched
1:03:56
over and over again, and the presentation
1:03:58
I did at the end was all out. Because of
1:04:00
that point, there was great shock that
1:04:04
that Matthew McConaughey of
1:04:07
Terrible Romantic Comedies
1:04:10
was now an Oscar winning actor and amazing.
1:04:12
And the point I made was daised
1:04:15
and confused because Number one he's great in it, but number
1:04:17
two Ben Afflecks in it. Yeah,
1:04:20
and he's went on to do loads of bad romantic
1:04:23
comedies to pay the bills, and then one Oscars
1:04:26
and done these amazing performances. It's like, that's
1:04:29
why I knew he was capable, because Woods is
1:04:31
possibly my other than Ill would be down. He might
1:04:33
be my favorite character in a film ever.
1:04:35
He's just cool as anything. But yeah, so
1:04:38
days and confused the choice there love
1:04:40
it got to two bonus
1:04:42
basins. I don't know negative, nor do you no,
1:04:45
but if we're allowed just one little
1:04:48
detoit, what did you think? What's the worst
1:04:50
film you've ever seen? In the film, You're like, this the fucking
1:04:53
worst film I've everything. Yeah, and
1:04:55
again, I actually think a lot about this because
1:04:58
I'm not a big hater of and
1:05:01
I always think that just I
1:05:03
hate when people say that was shiite
1:05:06
and it's like, well, no, it just wasn't to your taste. You
1:05:09
didn't enjoy it, that's fine.
1:05:12
But the one that came to mind was the
1:05:14
recent reboot of The Mummy
1:05:17
fucking now, and it
1:05:20
really disappointed me because I could
1:05:22
see all of the ways it could have been great, because I really
1:05:24
liked Tom Cruise. I think it's cracking.
1:05:27
I thought Sophia Betella
1:05:31
was amazing in it still so not even
1:05:33
just it could have been great. I thought she was great, that character
1:05:35
was great. I thought style
1:05:38
wise it looked amazing in the way
1:05:40
that a suicide squad appalling,
1:05:43
But Harley Quinn looked fantastic, amazingly
1:05:45
designed. Everything was perfect there, and it was
1:05:47
the same one that I loved, the idea
1:05:49
of them bringing in the wider universal
1:05:52
horror universe and having Jekyl
1:05:55
and Hide and all these other type things coming in. So
1:05:58
there was so much in there that I was like, this all
1:06:00
could have worked, but I don't think
1:06:02
they executed any of it.
1:06:04
I think Tom Cruise. I watched The Mummy
1:06:06
and I found it fascinating because Tom Cruise, whatever
1:06:09
you may think of him, I know you like him. I like him very
1:06:11
much. Yeah, he's a producer and he
1:06:14
makes good films. Even if you hate him, every
1:06:16
film that he's done is good. Like
1:06:18
it's a sign of quality. Tom Cruise is in it. This is
1:06:20
gonna be a good films. Again. I
1:06:22
don't like him. I don't like the idea
1:06:25
of him as a human as anything else. It
1:06:27
seems weird. I don't like the scientology stuff,
1:06:29
but he's great at what he does.
1:06:31
And then I told the Mummy and I was like, what the fuck
1:06:33
happened here? It looks like it was
1:06:36
re shot. Every scene looks like a
1:06:39
new I know. You know when a film is
1:06:41
in trouble when the beginning has three different
1:06:43
opening voiceovers to explain
1:06:47
what it is about, to the
1:06:49
extent that after the third voice over,
1:06:51
I was like, what is fuck is this
1:06:53
about? Yeah? What's going on? Paul?
1:06:55
Wasn't it? And again, all the elements are great.
1:06:58
I Betella hugely.
1:07:01
I love the director. What's his name,
1:07:03
David Alex katters Man, No, it
1:07:05
was so it is Alex Alex
1:07:08
the other film that she was in after that. But yeah, again
1:07:11
I think everything about it could have been
1:07:13
great and should have been great. It's
1:07:15
a prime example where I can completely
1:07:18
see that everyone found
1:07:20
out that was a bad film at the
1:07:22
premiere. Yeah, because
1:07:25
I can see you so much that when you're you're filming it,
1:07:27
even this probably felt like this is amazing
1:07:29
because it looked great and it felt like it could be great.
1:07:32
But then, as you said, there's loads of a
1:07:35
voice over and some of that which you wouldn't have known about.
1:07:37
So yeah. Yeah, it feels
1:07:40
like a heartbreaking running that way because so much of it felt
1:07:42
like it should be great. Jake Johnson's character to
1:07:44
days and comes back to about three different times. It's
1:07:47
like a comedy he's a comedy gator, then he's a bad gay,
1:07:49
then he's a comedy gator. Yeah the fuck is going
1:07:51
on? Yeah it was a mess. It don't makes
1:07:53
no sense. Yeah, and again it was.
1:07:55
It was with great sadness
1:07:58
that that was the case. What's
1:08:00
the funniest film? Again?
1:08:02
I had to think hard about this because there's a lot of really
1:08:05
funny films. I remember watching
1:08:08
Anchor Man on DVD and
1:08:10
the reason it was so next level
1:08:12
funny was my mate stew was stoned
1:08:15
and he was just in tears of laughter
1:08:17
throughout. And it does elevate
1:08:19
things. Watching someone
1:08:22
on a screen cry makes
1:08:24
you cry more. Hearing people laugh on a
1:08:26
podcast makes you laugh a long more, and
1:08:28
so on and so forth. And that was a prime example
1:08:30
of that. But this is a weird one. I thought
1:08:32
of the time I've I've laughed
1:08:35
the most in a cinema
1:08:37
and I was in America and
1:08:40
I went with a girl. I've
1:08:42
seen at the time, and a mate
1:08:44
of mine and we went to see Ted. It wasn't
1:08:47
mid blow John with it. No, No, it wasn't.
1:08:51
We went to see Ted and it was
1:08:53
the funniest thing I've ever seen in my life
1:08:55
in that moment. It's funny afterwards
1:08:58
I've rewatched. I thought, this good bitch,
1:09:00
there's there's I can see the weaknesses now and all
1:09:02
this. But at the time that was just
1:09:05
script writing everything. It was just the
1:09:07
funniest thing and it was one of them weird
1:09:10
ones because that was still just at the point where and
1:09:12
you don't have it often anymore that something had come out in
1:09:14
America before in the UK, it had
1:09:16
that excitement of oh, I'm seeing it before everyone
1:09:18
else. It was out a week later or whatever in the UK, and
1:09:21
it was just I was like, I knew I was going
1:09:23
back at the end of that week because first
1:09:25
thing I'm doing next week is going to see Ted
1:09:28
again. And yeah, it was hilarious.
1:09:31
The Utah for superbub for the weekend
1:09:33
and we had a morning off or something and we went
1:09:35
to see the first day of Ted
1:09:37
two before review before anybody. We
1:09:39
fucking loved. I thought it was brilliant and then all the reviews
1:09:42
came. I said it was ship and I was like, you don't understand
1:09:45
how hard it is to be funny. Yeah,
1:09:47
it unscreened, and I love and the amount
1:09:50
of jokes per second and Ted two
1:09:52
it's like constant fuck you. That's
1:09:54
and for both of them as well. And I love I
1:09:57
love a Wallburg and I
1:09:59
love him Mel the coolness. I think they're
1:10:01
both brilliant. Wallburg
1:10:04
in particular, switching
1:10:07
from genuine drama and things like The
1:10:09
Fighter and being genuinely engaged and amazing
1:10:11
and just comedy in this in the other guys
1:10:13
and all sorts of other stuff like that. I
1:10:16
think they're great. And yeah, I
1:10:18
love the writing of Seth McFarland.
1:10:22
I don't often enjoy it when
1:10:24
I'm seeing it come out of his mouth, So
1:10:28
making this Ted character it was
1:10:30
perfect. I don't know why it's went like I've seen him do
1:10:33
shows or award things, and he sings and the songs are amazing,
1:10:36
but something about him feels to stage
1:10:39
school for me, and it just it just ruins
1:10:42
it a little bit. And it's not his fault until it's
1:10:44
my own. Hangoups on stage school,
1:10:46
on posh people, on whatever, else that I have, but
1:10:49
something about it I just can't get quite
1:10:51
through with it actually
1:10:53
coming out of him, but coming out of a teddy
1:10:57
brilliant and to fucking have improvised
1:11:00
comedy with a cgi teddy. I mean, give
1:11:03
me a break, it's amazing. I loved it. So
1:11:06
you've answered all the questions. Your
1:11:08
favorite film is Harvey. Yes, Now
1:11:12
here's the thing when you blew yourself
1:11:14
up, yes, by
1:11:16
accident on purpose, Yes, And we
1:11:19
collected all your ashes and
1:11:22
we put them into a coffin. But it turned out your
1:11:25
and I mean, you know, the minutes would love very
1:11:27
tall. You're a big, You're a big, you're
1:11:29
a big county and big
1:11:31
old unit. Yeah, huge, ye
1:11:34
big, big, big, old but powerful
1:11:36
you might say, might be a description in whatever
1:11:39
you're like, Yeah, but big. And
1:11:41
when we collected all your ashes and put them
1:11:43
in the coffent field, nearly the
1:11:45
whole coffin. So all the films we talked about, Unfortunately
1:11:48
it's not room for them all. There's only one for one d to
1:11:51
take to the other side. But you weren't
1:11:53
even looking forward to because you thought there is
1:11:57
you can only take one with you, So what's to
1:12:00
be have you seen one night in Paris. That's
1:12:04
the one. Well, yeah, really, that's
1:12:07
the one porn DVD I've ever borrowed.
1:12:09
Is there someone at work lent it to me? Yeah?
1:12:12
Anyway, I'm not taking that. That's just more
1:12:14
information. I yeah, it's a good what
1:12:16
is it long? The whole thing? I think
1:12:18
I've just seen a picture of it. Sits
1:12:21
did it? I've
1:12:23
got fiving, I think, But yeah,
1:12:26
it's you know, I'm not going to pick that,
1:12:28
but it is weird that I ever there was ever a
1:12:30
time where you would borrow porn DV like
1:12:33
the internet now exists. It's amazing. But I'm
1:12:35
going to go for Harvey because
1:12:37
I said it's the film that is
1:12:40
my favorite, and artistically
1:12:43
I can say I love that the most.
1:12:45
I think it's I think it's great. Yeah, I'll
1:12:48
go with Harvey. I think screws Pit. You've
1:12:50
been excellent, no less than excellent.
1:12:53
Thank you mate. Is there anything
1:12:55
you would like to play before I send
1:12:57
you to heaven? No? Not
1:13:01
really, because now I'm dead, I
1:13:03
don't have to do all this shit anymore. So
1:13:05
now I'm good. I'm going to hold off to releasing
1:13:07
this podcast until next week when you're dead, because I
1:13:09
think it will get a little more. Yeah,
1:13:12
completely, and I'll do like an intro where I got
1:13:14
it whereas
1:13:16
it was so powerful, it's
1:13:18
so big. Well done.
1:13:21
Thank you for coming over, and I'm
1:13:24
sorry that you're dead, but you are going to have a love and time in heaven
1:13:26
surposing it. It sounds like it, and I'm
1:13:28
going to let you go there. Thanks
1:13:31
for being in Films
1:13:33
to be Buried With? And I hope
1:13:35
that I see you on the other side if
1:13:37
I make it. There is taking didn't
1:13:43
you do well? Lovely stuff? So
1:13:52
that was episode four or Films to
1:13:54
be Buried With? I really appreciate
1:13:56
you listening. I really do. Now
1:13:59
a couple of adamint things.
1:14:01
Basically, if you can, when
1:14:04
you go on iTunes and you find this, if
1:14:06
you could give it a five star rating, basically if
1:14:08
you give it five stars. If you love it, give
1:14:10
it five stars, and it helps more and more
1:14:13
people hear it. If you hate it, give
1:14:15
it five stars because then more
1:14:18
and more people will hear it, and that includes people
1:14:20
that you don't like, so you're basically
1:14:23
forcing them to listen to something shit. So
1:14:25
either way it's a win win. Please
1:14:28
