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

1:13:14

it whereas

1:13:16

it was so powerful, it's

1:13:18

so big. Well done.

1:13:21

1:13:24

1:13:33

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
