[0:00] In this episode, it's the Flophouse vs. Alien vs. Predator 2.
[0:30] Welcome to the Flophouse. I'm Dan McCoy.
[0:33] Yeah, I'm Stuart Wellington.
[0:35] And I'm Lou Fernandez.
[0:37] Yes, Lou will be subbing in first tonight.
[0:40] Regular co-host Elliot Kalin had some family business to attend to,
[0:45] but I welcome you guys to speculate on more embarrassing reasons why he couldn't be here tonight.
[0:51] Diarrhea, probably.
[0:53] Stuart goes immediately to the potty. Lou?
[0:58] I can only assume that he's getting a full-back tattoo of some sort of icon that he likes.
[1:03] Maybe a Smurf?
[1:05] Oh, sure.
[1:06] A full Smurf scene on his back?
[1:08] I was going to hope you were going to go with, like, Looney Tunes characters wearing their clothes backwards, a la Criss Cross.
[1:13] Oh, nice. I haven't thought about Criss Cross in a while.
[1:16] They're going to make you jump jump.
[1:18] The Mac Dad will make you jump jump. They go in that order.
[1:21] Also, House of Pain will make you jump around, jump around, jump around.
[1:26] I'm really impressed with your knowledge of hip-hop, Circa, when I was a kid.
[1:31] Sure. Well, Lou, tell us a little bit about yourself before we get into it.
[1:36] Oh, my goodness. Well, I'm extremely modest to start,
[1:40] but I'm an Irish-Puerto Rican gentleman born on the island of Puerto Rico.
[1:45] I'm going to start at the beginning.
[1:47] Sure.
[1:48] You literally have all the time in the world for this podcast.
[1:50] All right, well, I grew up in Manhattan.
[1:53] I went to school in Wisconsin.
[1:55] I went to school with the guy who was the focus of the movie American Movie.
[1:59] Nice. Mark Borchert?
[2:01] Yes, Mark Borchert.
[2:03] Borchert.
[2:04] And I came back to New York in 1996 and have led a mundane life here in the greatest city on earth.
[2:11] All right. And you do comedy improv, which is one of the reasons why you're here.
[2:16] Also, you got me my job.
[2:18] That's right.
[2:19] Which is another blackmail.
[2:21] I hold that over your head in very obscure ways.
[2:24] I don't really force you to do things, but I remind you about it a lot.
[2:28] It's not that good a job.
[2:29] No, I agree. You let me know that it's not good on a regular basis.
[2:33] Over Gmail chats.
[2:35] Yes.
[2:36] Well, let's get into the movie that we watch.
[2:39] Wait, which movie was this one again?
[2:41] It was Alien vs. Predator Requiem.
[2:43] Hey, isn't that otherwise known as AVP 2?
[2:46] Oh, this was Requiem?
[2:48] This was Requiem.
[2:49] I thought this one was AVPR.
[2:52] What would the R stand for in that?
[2:54] Oh, Requiem. Okay, I get it.
[2:56] There's no Requiem played at any point.
[2:59] Yeah, what's the dictionary definition of a Requiem?
[3:02] Because I don't think we got that.
[3:04] Isn't it like a funeral, funereal composition of some kind?
[3:07] So is it like the –
[3:08] Memorial song?
[3:09] Is it the funeral of aliens and predators versing each other?
[3:13] I think it's –
[3:14] We can only hope that's what it memorializes.
[3:17] To me, it would have represented a sad song about the money I had spent to see it if I had seen it in the theater.
[3:23] Well, let's talk – for a moment, let's take a little side trip down memory lane
[3:27] and just note that Stuart and I actually saw Alien vs. Predator 1 in the theater together.
[3:35] In the theater.
[3:36] And we did that –
[3:37] That's right.
[3:38] We had our popcorn.
[3:39] We were really excited.
[3:41] We had really big drinks.
[3:42] I think we did that because we had both been pleasantly surprised by Freddy vs. Jason.
[3:47] Yeah, sure.
[3:48] And the fact that that movie was actually pretty cool.
[3:50] I mean, considering that it was a movie about Freddy vs. Jason.
[3:53] Always considering that.
[3:54] Yeah.
[3:55] But it was the best Freddy vs. Jason that we could imagine.
[3:58] That was after Freddy Takes Manhattan.
[3:59] Or no, Jason Takes Manhattan.
[4:01] Yeah, Friday the 13th Part VIII.
[4:03] But that one's not even as bad as Friday the 13th Part VIII.
[4:06] I'll admit that I had illegally downloaded the first Alien vs. Predator.
[4:11] Right.
[4:12] And then fast forwarded when I realized there were no aliens for the first 45 minutes
[4:16] until the pyramid stuff happened.
[4:18] Yeah, well, let's talk about –
[4:19] What is a pyramid, then?
[4:20] Wasn't it?
[4:21] I thought it was –
[4:22] Was there or wasn't there?
[4:23] There was a pyramid.
[4:24] Yeah, what's the deal?
[4:25] I was going to say, let's talk about the ways in which this movie is superior
[4:28] to the first Alien vs. Predator movie.
[4:30] And I can only think of one thing, and that's that there's no shape-shifting pyramid in it.
[4:35] The first Alien vs. Predator takes place in Antarctica.
[4:40] And there's a shape-shifting period that used to be used by –
[4:44] Period?
[4:45] Pyramid.
[4:46] Pyramid?
[4:47] Period?
[4:48] Period, yes.
[4:49] The –
[4:50] Freudian slip, dude.
[4:51] The aliens are getting the period.
[4:53] And that's why they're so angry all the time.
[4:55] Nice.
[4:56] And there's a pyramid in Antarctica.
[4:58] You're misogynistic.
[5:00] I am the least misogynistic person on this podcast.
[5:05] So why'd you pick this movie?
[5:06] I do hate women.
[5:07] That's convenient, because the bad guy is a queen.
[5:11] What I remember about the first movie, though,
[5:13] is the Predators built some sort of sacrificial pyramid at Antarctica
[5:19] where they would kill aliens.
[5:21] It was like a testing ground, wasn't it?
[5:23] For young Predators to go and –
[5:25] All I remember is that Lance Henriksen was in it, which was pretty cool.
[5:28] Who?
[5:29] Lance Henriksen.
[5:30] Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[5:31] He was in Pumpkinhead.
[5:33] Yeah, he makes pottery now, by the way.
[5:35] That's a callback.
[5:36] He makes pottery, like professionally?
[5:37] Yeah.
[5:38] Or in a movie.
[5:39] If you go on the Internet, you can buy pottery made by Lance Henriksen.
[5:42] Is that star of the TV show Millennium?
[5:44] Information in the credits.
[5:46] Stop.
[5:47] Thanks for staying, aliens.
[5:48] So, wait.
[5:49] Like, isn't he good?
[5:50] Is he like a potter in the same sense that –
[5:52] who's that guy?
[5:54] Oh, crap.
[5:55] Like the way the guy who plays Screech is a porno actor?
[5:58] Like he does it on his side time?
[5:59] Well, that's out of desperation, wasn't it?
[6:02] Yeah.
[6:03] He's a potter in the same way that Kevin Bacon is a rock star.
[6:08] Oh, okay.
[6:09] That makes sense.
[6:10] Wow.
[6:11] Is that an insult?
[6:12] That seems like mean, yeah.
[6:13] No.
[6:14] I've never seen the Bacon Brothers.
[6:16] I guess I'm just making an assumption.
[6:18] I have to say the phrase alien versus pottery, but I don't know.
[6:22] It just was in my head.
[6:24] I'm sorry.
[6:25] You don't know why.
[6:26] I know.
[6:27] You just want to say it.
[6:28] I just had to say it.
[6:29] So why are they versing each other this time, Dan?
[6:31] This time was some kind of like an initiation, like a hazing.
[6:34] But is this an actual continuation of like – because the movie starts with,
[6:39] if you hadn't seen the prerequiem or whatever, the first one,
[6:43] I would have –
[6:44] A prelude to the requiem.
[6:45] Yes, I didn't see.
[6:46] And then some horrible turn of events leads you to actually watching the sequel
[6:50] for some reason.
[6:51] For no reason.
[6:52] And then, yeah, and then perhaps you're –
[6:53] It just starts with –
[6:54] Doing a podcast.
[6:55] Yes.
[6:56] Sure.
[6:57] And you're forced to watch Alien vs. Predator 2.
[6:58] This is probably the only –
[6:59] Now, I like to imagine that first, Aliens vs. Predator movie,
[7:02] like I imagine these predators are going to like Predator University or something
[7:07] and like their first couple months there, they're like,
[7:09] we want to get into like the cool frat.
[7:11] And in order to do that, they have to go through a hazing where they have to go
[7:15] to Earth to this weird, stupid pyramid and battle a bunch of aliens
[7:19] that are held deep within its like shape-shifting confines.
[7:22] That's after they have to drink like three gallons of water
[7:24] and get stuck in a trunk for a week.
[7:26] Sure.
[7:27] And then somewhere in the process, the aliens get way out of hand
[7:31] and then, of course, the rest of the movie happens.
[7:34] They don't really explain it because they don't really –
[7:36] they don't provide subtitles for those stupid predators.
[7:38] So I have no idea what the hell is going on most of the time.
[7:41] That's good filmmaking.
[7:42] Oh, right.
[7:43] You have to infer from the pure cinema, the wordless cinema, what the predators want.
[7:50] You know what I really like when they show like the predator's face really close
[7:53] and they have like the vignetted light across its eyes
[7:55] so you can really sense the emotion that's going on behind its mask.
[7:59] Yeah.
[8:00] But I don't want to spoil the first Alien v. Predator movie.
[8:04] It's pretty spoiled, Dan.
[8:06] It ends, I guess, with an alien bursting out of a predator.
[8:11] That's how it ends.
[8:12] And that's how this movie begins.
[8:14] I mean, I guess we can assume the sequel picks up literally where the last one left off.
[8:18] It's sort of like Halloween II to the first Halloween or like Lord of the Rings.
[8:23] Right.
[8:24] Which is a proper sequel.
[8:25] Yeah.
[8:26] With a story.
[8:27] But the thing is like the idea, I guess, is that aliens, when they impregnate someone,
[8:32] when they burst out of your chest, they sort of take on your characteristics.
[8:37] That's why the aliens in Alien and Aliens are sort of vaguely humanoid,
[8:43] despite their huge phallic abs.
[8:45] Wait, wait, wait.
[8:46] Who told you that?
[8:47] Did like H.R. Geiger send you an email?
[8:49] Yes.
[8:51] From whatever weird...
[8:52] H.R.G69 at gmail.com sent me an email explaining the way that the life cycle of an alien goes through.
[9:02] Oh, that's cool.
[9:03] But, well, I assume because here we get a pred-alien,
[9:06] like the alien that bursts out of the predator's chest turns into a predator-alien hybrid,
[9:11] which is basically just an alien with dreadlocks.
[9:14] And the weird vagina and tartar mouth thing.
[9:18] Well, but the original Alien kind of had that already with the internal mouth.
[9:24] Yeah, but it didn't have the weird unhinging forepart.
[9:27] The spikes.
[9:28] Yeah, the weird forepart.
[9:29] Well, I don't know what vaginas you've been encountering, Stuart, but I don't think that they...
[9:32] They are terrifying.
[9:34] Folks, terrifying.
[9:36] I guess the ones in the movie have more teeth than I'm used to, but I don't know.
[9:42] You're not saying the ones you've encountered have had no teeth.
[9:47] If I were to see a toothless vagina, I don't know what I'll do.
[9:51] That would just be alien.
[9:53] Yeah.
[9:54] So on the subject...
[9:55] The predator.
[9:57] So the aliens infecting the...
[10:00] ship that ship crash lands on earth course uh... and then uh... appraisers
[10:04] of showing up later right i gotta say that that that is the one other way in
[10:08] which this movie is superior like
[10:10] out of the setup this movie yet
[10:12] is a better setup
[10:14] yet then the first in the first part of the i would rather see
[10:18] aliens and predators
[10:20] in like an actual
[10:21] habitated small town
[10:23] like any time you would say yeah then some weird uh... pyramid in antarctica
[10:30] yeah it's not weird where people have to actively like go to find it
[10:34] i don't know
[10:35] i'm just i'm just thinking of like what
[10:37] where should we go with this next what if
[10:40] what's the next step in this journey
[10:43] yeah well i remember i mean to build on what you're saying and i remember you
[10:47] know a couple months before this movie came out
[10:49] and uh... i for whatever reason just had not really been you know on the on the
[10:54] pulse of the alien vs. predator community
[10:56] and uh... i was at a bar i was actually a fan fiction you were not on the forums? no i wasn't i was
[11:01] actually at a bar in bennegan's
[11:04] i was talking to uh... one of my bosses and we were drinking
[11:08] and he uh... he described one of the like he described the trailer that was on the
[11:12] net that was like you know it was restricted because there was a lot of
[11:15] gore and he was describing it scene for scene we were both pretty drunk and i
[11:19] think i was like wow that sounds pretty awesome
[11:21] and uh... it's too bad because it wasn't very awesome. was he like at any time was he ever like
[11:27] guess what
[11:28] it's encrusted butte
[11:30] that's the twist. and i said i did a spit take all over the bartender and we got kicked out
[11:34] well we're taking a long circuitous route to explaining what this movie
[11:39] actually was but i think that's because
[11:41] the movie doesn't make a whole lot of sense. that's true
[11:44] scenes follow scenes without a connective tissue the same characters
[11:49] will appear
[11:50] in one scene and then the next scene
[11:52] but you don't necessarily feel like there's been any like time space
[11:56] progression between those two scenes it's just that the same actors happen to be in
[12:00] both of them
[12:02] there's definitely a lot of feeling of like well we've got this set up
[12:06] let's just shoot every scene here right now
[12:09] it doesn't make any sense to get everyone on the set and shoot it
[12:12] especially like the hobos
[12:14] yeah in the sewer
[12:15] they're hobos that get infected with an alien
[12:18] basically like the aliens
[12:20] those aliens are poor
[12:24] they have really poor constitutions
[12:26] they're panhandling. i would have preferred that instead of being
[12:29] homicidal the aliens come out and just resume their positions in the
[12:33] in the sewer but with the dog. in society they just don't feel like
[12:39] they don't have the social standing to do anything
[12:42] no joie de vivre
[12:45] the aliens come down
[12:47] they infect a kid and his father. that was actually an awesome scene
[12:52] well it's kind of awesome because this movie does have
[12:55] a sort of interesting disregard for the characters and you know like
[12:59] unexpectedly people will die
[13:02] if you cared more about the characters that would be cool because it would keep
[13:05] you off guard as it is it was kind of like
[13:08] the worst elements of like a friday the thirteenth movie where you're like well
[13:12] basically everyone's gonna die so i don't really
[13:15] give a damn. it was awesome when that dude's arm melted off really early on
[13:19] right in front of his son. i don't know if you noticed that was his
[13:22] his wedding
[13:23] his wedding hand
[13:25] i didn't notice that. that's very important
[13:27] you're trying to detail. there was some symbolism there. there was some symbolism of a divorce
[13:33] motif
[13:33] now
[13:35] the problem with a movie that's this shitty is that i actually start like
[13:39] i start
[13:41] picking on everything about the movie like i'm just like this is bad and this
[13:44] is bad
[13:45] and like i actually found myself concerning myself with
[13:48] the strangeness of their choice to alter the biology of aliens
[13:53] like you know i really don't give a fuck about aliens
[13:56] and like whether or not it takes a long time for a fucking alien pupae
[14:00] or pupa to fucking gestate inside a human. now you're challenging man's earlier statement. this is where you and i
[14:05] differ stewart because
[14:08] i feel that alien and aliens
[14:11] are two of like the best horror movie and like
[14:14] horror movie and like horror action film
[14:17] respectively
[14:19] like ice pirates
[14:21] i don't know what that is. like the movie ice pirates. sure.
[14:23] but i love them and part of why i love them is i do feel like there's a lot of
[14:28] thought that's been put into
[14:30] the alien biology. you've got these
[14:32] the facehuggers hatch from eggs
[14:34] the eggs have been laid by a queen alien
[14:37] you know the facehuggers lay
[14:39] some other sort of egg inside of the host
[14:42] and like then the chestbursters come out and and and there you got your alien.
[14:46] these filmmakers don't have time. here they're like
[14:49] okay i guess
[14:51] we don't need. i bet they're just like
[14:54] people get it
[14:55] people get it just go. just see where like a regular alien
[14:59] puts its mouth over the mouth of a pregnant woman and you see like things
[15:03] going down her
[15:04] her neck
[15:05] and then uh... those are those are baby aliens i bet. i guess and then chestbursters
[15:09] come out and i'm like where's the facehugger man?
[15:12] oh they're cutting out a step. they're cutting out like a middle man.
[15:16] but there's no queen alien in this film at all. they can implant through the mouth.
[15:20] but there's no queen alien to lay the facehugger egg. what's that miniature mouth for?
[15:25] they've established a biology and they've decided to just fuck it.
[15:29] like at this point they're like
[15:30] fuck it. at this point we've got an alien fighting a predator. fuck it.
[15:34] it could have done whatever it wanted.
[15:36] we want the maximum amount of battling in this and the weird biology slowing
[15:41] down the battles.
[15:42] so to better deal with it
[15:44] let's have this alien be able to make out with humans and by making out with
[15:48] them they create aliens in their pregnant bellies.
[15:53] maybe that's a symbol for something.
[15:54] maybe this is like a pro abstinence film.
[15:57] i think you're right.
[15:59] there isn't any nudity in it.
[16:00] there's almost nudity.
[16:02] there was once very hot ass in boy shorts.
[16:05] boy shorts sure that's the definition.
[16:08] although that was the girl that we all pointed out was the unrealistically
[16:13] aggressive hot chick who was after the unworthy pizza boy.
[16:17] let's really really quickly go through the plot.
[16:19] like i'm just going to like run through the plot.
[16:21] aliens and predators come to earth.
[16:23] crested butte.
[16:25] meanwhile this guy who's i guess like sort of a punk kid comes back into town
[16:30] and he meets up with the sheriff who i guess used to also be a punk kid but now
[16:33] they're on opposite sides of the law.
[16:35] and the punk kid is the older brother
[16:37] of the pizza boy who's in love with this unrealistically aggressive woman
[16:42] and uh...
[16:44] and then aliens and predators come to town and they fuck everything up.
[16:47] oh also meanwhile the woman who played michelle in twenty four comes back from
[16:51] the war
[16:52] uh... to find her husband and daughter.
[16:54] but like it really doesn't matter because then they're just all like alien and predator fodder.
[16:58] yeah i'm bored just listening to you dude.
[17:01] i mean there's some funny things that happen along the way.
[17:04] it's really funny like the pizza guy comes and he's like talking to his crush.
[17:08] he comes in. yeah that's by far the best part of the movie. he's delivering like four pizzas to his crush.
[17:13] they're like three
[17:14] you know central casting thugs on the couch
[17:18] and he comes in and he goes and he puts the pizzas in the kitchen and he makes
[17:22] the girl laugh
[17:23] and he leaves. oh is that what the laugh was?
[17:27] yeah i believe that the joke was
[17:29] i think i know who the extra sausage or sausage lovers pizzas for. i think
[17:33] that's a gay joke or something.
[17:37] homosexual people like to eat sausage on their pizzas.
[17:42] italian sausage. so he leaves and then the evil boyfriend comes out
[17:48] and just like decks him and starts kicking him.
[17:51] right and then cruelly throws his keys into the sewer.
[17:55] and let's make it clear this joke was not made directly in front of him.
[18:00] it was actually in another room.
[18:02] it's the most obvious version of the dick boyfriend
[18:07] movie cliche
[18:09] and the whole thing i guess is just a setup for a reason that they go into the
[18:12] sewers later because he throws the keys into the sewer. but the sewer
[18:17] exploration
[18:18] serves almost no purpose because we've already seen the aliens infect the hobos.
[18:22] they find an alien skin down there.
[18:24] but they don't know what it is.
[18:26] and meanwhile... it looks like sewer...
[18:30] like an alien condom is what we're talking about. or a dental dam.
[18:35] an alien dental dam. well you know the
[18:37] vagina mouth that comes in handy.
[18:39] and meanwhile we've got the predator coming down and basically tracking the alien.
[18:44] and it's this weird parallel storytelling where we've got the humans and we've got the predator
[18:48] tracking the alien.
[18:49] and the predator tracking the alien in this wordless sequence is kind of like
[18:53] it feels like a detective story or something.
[18:56] like you sort of expect the predator to be like uh... columbo or something.
[19:00] now one more thing man.
[19:02] i noticed that uh...
[19:04] there were two mouths on the alien.
[19:08] good one dude.
[19:10] the weird thing about these movies, these predator vs. alien movies, is it
[19:13] turns the predator sort of into the hero
[19:16] because the predator is a little more sentient than the alien. like it's a little
[19:20] more like
[19:21] at least it's got an ethos. like it's got a predator based society.
[19:25] i did like the uh...
[19:27] the signal reaching the predator in his predator pad.
[19:30] whoever that is. in the over complicated
[19:34] tv that like comes out from behind the chair
[19:36] into his face so you can see whatever the thing is.
[19:39] and then next thing he's just like i'm out.
[19:42] i gotta go do some predatin'. takes a spaceship
[19:45] to earth
[19:47] record speed. i'm outie. i got some predatin' to do. that's the thing. that's why i can identify with predators.
[19:54] because if i was a predator i'd want to go explore and investigate weird alien
[19:58] things.
[20:00] but why only one
[20:01] i mean it was a spaceship full of aliens that are predators got to know why does
[20:06] the alien
[20:07] here's another thing
[20:09] are you ever said dreadlocks by the way that's right and helps me identify with
[20:12] them as being like people like
[20:15] was the dreadlocks i think
[20:16] is the human breast first up
[20:18] person of the universe humans have dreadlocks sometimes too
[20:23] that's true and they like to uh... they like to uh... hunt things
[20:27] that's true
[20:29] the funny thing is that i don't think of the
[20:30] the predators dreadlocks as a black trait i'd like to think of it as like a
[20:35] kind of a dirty white guy thing
[20:36] okay so he's a white guy with dreadlocks no we went to a hippie college so we're familiar
[20:41] like so you're saying that like this predator
[20:44] on his off time is like playing hacky sack and getting together with his friends in the park
[20:48] to play
[20:49] like arhythmic drums listening to uh...
[20:52] but he smells like petunia oil
[20:54] dave matthews band maybe
[20:56] nice god i hope not
[20:58] you hope that dave matthews band is a big broadcast out to the stars not like the string cheese incident
[21:03] i hope that somehow
[21:05] yeah i really hope that that's not true because of all the music to get to space
[21:09] dave matthews band would be the last thing i want to be our ambassador to the stars
[21:15] i voted against him to be included on our voyager
[21:19] probe
[21:20] the weird thing though like arguably like the one
[21:23] like really cool idea of this movie would be to see the predator alien like
[21:27] oh man
[21:29] finally
[21:29] a hybrid of my two favorite alien movie monsters
[21:34] it's like a frankenstein that's also a dracula
[21:36] but
[21:38] there's no like i said before it's just an alien with dreadlocks it doesn't
[21:43] have any like
[21:44] correlation with the predator you know it's just another type of alien that the predator
[21:49] has to fight
[21:50] which we see
[21:51] in very dim light right you know
[21:54] i think it's meant to add personality to one of the bad guys so it's kind of like
[21:59] so you're like striping gremlins yeah absolutely
[22:02] nice well like in the first alien vs predator there's that one predator or the one
[22:06] alien that has the weird like
[22:08] net scar on his face
[22:10] that's like makes it look like he's got a checkerboard face
[22:13] i don't remember that movie at all no that happens i remember lance henriksen
[22:18] and he's in that movie
[22:20] like a senate like pinhead
[22:22] yeah kinda i really the thing i remember most about the first aliens vs predator
[22:26] and this movie didn't really have one of those moments was
[22:28] at the very end of the movie when uh... your survivor who's like a tough
[22:32] tough woman character
[22:34] who kind of teamed up with the predator to kill the queen alien
[22:37] they uh... you know they get done killing the queen alien and they're standing there
[22:40] on this like you know like cliff
[22:43] and they like take a moment they like stop and look at each other and
[22:46] every ounce of my being is like they need to kiss right now
[22:51] if they make out i will but i will go see this movie four more times
[22:57] i wouldn't mind if you have a like a projectionist quickly
[23:01] let me buy this movie from you
[23:05] doesn't the predator only speak in samples that he gets from other people's
[23:09] dialogue
[23:09] oh yeah
[23:11] so he would have to say something
[23:12] he's like the guy from police academy right
[23:14] with that moment of respect between human and predator
[23:19] like at the end of predator two
[23:21] when the predators like
[23:22] uh... fair play danny glover you got me you got me you were a worthy adversary
[23:28] uh... man
[23:29] oh so many good movies
[23:32] this was not one
[23:34] this is a surprise juice and uh... jenny
[23:37] uh... man i was not i'm so laid back
[23:39] that i have been dribbling
[23:42] you know it's just shocking cuz like
[23:45] you'd think that a movie with aliens and predators and it would it'd be hard to
[23:49] make me sad
[23:50] like that i'd be able to find at least something in it but i was like man that
[23:53] rocked
[23:54] so i'm saying like
[23:55] but i'm not gonna say that i'm going to say that any of the alien like aliens
[23:59] uh... you know alien three or alien four i'm not gonna say those movies are great
[24:03] but at least there's something in all of them that i'm like oh wow that's pretty
[24:06] cool even the bad well yeah even the bad numbered alien movies doesn't make it
[24:12] yet
[24:12] we all agree that alien aliens are great
[24:15] alien three
[24:16] you know has some really like pretty pictures atmosphere atmosphere it's
[24:21] interesting place for it to happen in my resurrection
[24:24] has like it's got that weird frenchness as you know it's got um... michael
[24:29] michael wincott in it
[24:31] sure
[24:32] ron perlman yeah i've discussed freaks me out
[24:36] uh...
[24:37] uh... that's why i met him he would freak me out too if like ron perlman shook my hand
[24:42] he's got giant body parts i would feel like i would be crushed by the weight of his
[24:47] personality you would be afraid he would try to whisk you away to his
[24:51] sewer layer
[24:53] i would be lost in his leonine eyes
[24:59] i have to say that this movie included a lot of
[25:02] quickly introduced disposable characters
[25:05] like the guy hiding the mystery person
[25:08] hiding in the uh... in the graveyard
[25:11] smoking a cigarette with a pistol
[25:13] and he is decapitated which is the predators favorite way to kill humans is
[25:18] to blow their heads from the lower jaw up which is strange for a race of beings
[25:24] that collect skulls
[25:26] i would think that would be counterintuitive he doesn't really
[25:30] can we discuss whether predators skins the the dude for no reason
[25:34] well he doesn't really do you know why
[25:35] yeah i don't know you're going to shed light on it
[25:39] well i've done a lot of uh... are you going to ask the listeners
[25:42] can you write in and send an email to i care about predator skinnings
[25:47] no yahoo
[25:48] the subject of the email has to be
[25:51] i understand why predators skin humans
[25:54] well just it's the only
[25:56] callback to the first predator movie which is a skinning
[25:59] or some sort of trophy collection
[26:02] that has zero going on it's also the only
[26:04] the first body he doesn't dissolve with his magic blue
[26:08] dissolving powder
[26:11] well also
[26:12] you say shortly introduced characters
[26:14] i would say also longly introduced characters
[26:17] spoiler alert audience
[26:20] don't do it man
[26:21] overly aggressive love interest of the pizza boy
[26:25] gets totally killed by predator flying disc
[26:29] and i don't know that it was shot earlier
[26:32] shocking moments
[26:33] the it was definitely somehow survives a alien
[26:37] uh... tail tail going through him i mean like that and that entirely piercing him
[26:41] through his bulletproof vest and it is a great deal and so it's a character
[26:45] uh... bishop survived that the aliens but he was an android
[26:49] yes thank you
[26:51] uh... i want to touch on this overly aggressive love interest here because i
[26:55] thought it was really strange like
[26:57] you know you can have a pretty girl who's interested in your life and a
[27:00] shy nerdy i can't
[27:01] you can happen
[27:03] i was in charge of that is what i mean i like for instance in transformers
[27:07] but the difference here is that like this girl is fucking like this girl's
[27:10] crazy aggressive
[27:11] well and she's unbelievably hot and she
[27:14] just brings up of the board for the same day
[27:17] and i think she breaks up with him so that she can do it with this guy who
[27:20] says he literally is going to pool because you know what's this guy who
[27:23] makes literally known like actual mention that he's interested in this
[27:27] girl and if i'll you know i've i've met some girls in my life
[27:31] easy girls i've met a number of girls and one thing i notice is the girls
[27:35] generally require at least
[27:37] some layer uh... like either and it was a little bit of interest in
[27:41] or a little bit of the uh... exactly took care of that in their earlier scene
[27:45] where she told me she broke up that they go through a long
[27:48] and obscure discussion about how he's looking over his shoulder at the clock
[27:52] of the that happened yes
[27:55] okay or okay i'm sorry the guys who made this movie
[27:58] uh... i'm totally wrong it was you may not see it
[28:01] but you know i just think i would like all the something brothers by the way
[28:04] the people who made brother strouse brothers strouse made this film
[28:08] there's a weird
[28:09] weird choice which was to call themselves the brother strouse
[28:12] you know many brothers were there
[28:14] i wonder if they know this was like a launch their sort of matrix career yes
[28:19] exactly the wacowskis can they do no wrongs there's nothing like making a
[28:24] second sequel of a not good movie
[28:28] we're gonna own
[28:29] a vp are
[28:31] yeah they got home
[28:32] that's really i don't forget the other one of the first alien vs predator was
[28:36] total bullshit this is the only person who had the age of the ones that the
[28:41] fans want
[28:42] if that's what the fans wanted i'd like to have a conversation with those fans
[28:46] or possibly hope that they don't exist
[28:49] yeah i feel like you know i'll tell you about this and i know i feel like we
[28:52] should split the ending but there's no way in this world like some people get
[28:55] away with most people die
[28:57] yeah i i think i've mentioned that uh... it had the uh... the fifth grade
[29:01] as easy escape ending
[29:03] whether than a nuclear explosion
[29:05] rather than it was a nuclear yeah i know they they they
[29:08] fucking dropped a nuke on the planet
[29:10] or the planet
[29:11] they dropped a nuke on the very uh... as an accurate description of what happened on the planet
[29:15] part of the planet
[29:18] what's that what's a nuke a nuclear bomb are you using jargon dan?
[29:21] on the town i am
[29:23] this is uh... military jargon
[29:25] and our heroes are going out in a helicopter and somehow they survive
[29:29] this nuclear blast
[29:30] and the uh... radioactive cloud
[29:33] yeah and then at the end we see all the electricity would have been knocked out by the
[29:38] yeah there would have been a nuclear bomb
[29:40] sorry i grew up in the eighties it's a special type of nuclear bomb designed uh... with aliens
[29:45] and predators and whatever well i have to say that that
[29:48] that for me
[29:49] is one of those like buzzkills because the whole thing
[29:51] movie is really about the predator
[29:53] trying to kill the aliens and then just to
[29:55] oh yeah by the way we could have just dropped a nuke the whole time sorry everybody
[29:59] in the middle of their
[30:00] fighting a nuclear bomb killed them both yeah so this was out to you mainly wins
[30:04] that was a does a bad ass fight the only way it could and
[30:10] see you at a vp three suckers
[30:13] before was at the end
[30:16] question mark uh... i was a little bit surprised it was doing that i had to say
[30:19] that it was that he was
[30:21] they take the predator technology
[30:23] to uh... miss you tammy
[30:26] making reference to
[30:27] wailing you tammy the company
[30:29] from the alien movies
[30:32] but that's one issue that such a reference that i
[30:35] i didn't get at all yeah that was for the fans do it's also for the panel but
[30:39] also they bring it's not going to be a great deal of the day i was a little
[30:42] hitler predator technology
[30:44] to the company from them from the movie alien
[30:47] uh... maybe that teaches them to make a better alien i don't know this is a
[30:51] stupid twist and such a look at weird like
[30:54] terminator ripoff to
[30:56] right yeah i don't know if they've taken it to that guy that
[30:59] bison guy from the person from terminating
[31:02] people like you can use this to make terminators
[31:06] we're going to do it because i'm not in a lot of movies are more than any of the
[31:10] uh... brother from another planet
[31:12] was that that the black and brown
[31:13] yet from uh...
[31:15] nice from uh... terminator to the guy actually got the black gentleman other
[31:19] from another planet uh... with a great fisher stevens scene by the way it's
[31:23] and they're big fish stevens is a great indian guy
[31:26] yes he plays an indian guy
[31:28] or a giant robot or a turtle does he play one of those two
[31:32] he plays an elderly turtle
[31:35] what does he play in that movie
[31:36] uh... he plays a street hustler
[31:39] he actually has a really good line which you and i uh...
[31:43] he says that he's gonna
[31:44] do a final magic trick on the subway
[31:47] uh... at one hundred twenty-fifth street he's like i'm gonna make all the white
[31:50] people disappear that's right
[31:51] and they get off the train
[31:53] which is a good scene
[31:54] but uh...
[31:56] actually happens in a hundred sixteen street
[31:58] yeah people get off the train
[32:00] they're going to school their students
[32:03] students at columbia
[32:05] good stories
[32:07] so uh... i think it's time to have a final uh... final decision on this piece
[32:11] of shit yeah for lose benefit i know he has actually was with the podcast
[32:16] i don't know it's not like that it's a little bit shit
[32:20] we have three categories that is
[32:23] is this
[32:24] a uh... a good bad movie
[32:27] a bad bad movie
[32:30] or a movie that you actually
[32:31] enjoyed in in some way
[32:33] so uh... lulu
[32:36] as the guest one you know i get to go first share
[32:39] uh... i'm going to say this is a bad bad movie
[32:43] uh... i did not enjoy it at all
[32:46] and it wasn't enough
[32:48] fun stuff in it
[32:49] i think the brothers strauss should be ashamed of themselves this is really
[32:53] their worst work
[32:54] okay
[32:57] uh... yeah i'm talking to you guys out there i know exactly what you're
[33:00] thinking
[33:01] you know you're in that video store and you're like
[33:03] there's nothing else out there
[33:05] uh...
[33:06] all my all the movies i really want to run it out like the dungeon siege movie
[33:10] and all that shit
[33:11] so you don't know what to do and then you're like a vp requiem
[33:14] uh...
[33:15] that might have some funny shit net while we were at the whole unrated
[33:18] version and let's check it out
[33:21] uh... you shouldn't fucking do that okay put that fucking video down
[33:25] this movie is terrible
[33:26] and i like really bad movies and this one is really really bad so please you
[33:31] guys i know what you're thinking but please put it back and don't run it
[33:35] yeah i don't i don't know really what i can add to that i agree
[33:39] there was a part of me
[33:40] that was still even after alien vs predator
[33:44] and all the bad reviews of this movie yeah i was like
[33:47] but it's it's it's a couple
[33:49] bloodthirsty aliens
[33:51] there's gotta be
[33:54] there's gotta be something there
[33:55] no there's nothing there
[33:57] don't watch it and imagine your own fight between alien
[34:01] and predator and not too much
[34:02] imagine the drawing of it
[34:05] post it on your fridge
[34:08] like a part of
[34:09] part of me just send it in send it to the flop house we'll describe it write your
[34:12] fan fiction alien vs predator and send it in don't write
[34:16] erotic
[34:17] alien vs predator fiction
[34:19] because none will compare to mine it's way too hot
[34:22] don't write alien vs predator slash
[34:25] poor gash
[34:26] poor gash no gash galeon
[34:31] uh... man that's
[34:32] that's gonna be good stuff
[34:35] that's the thing like
[34:36] and i was expecting this movie you know all the reviews are terrible
[34:40] so you probably were never thinking like oh this movie might be good
[34:44] but it isn't even kind of like this is kind of fun in a stupid way it's just
[34:48] really bad it's hard to believe that they
[34:50] bothered to make posters for it which i remember seeing because it's not worth
[34:54] being
[34:55] released
[34:56] yeah i've watched a lot of shitty movies and this one's really bad
[35:00] uh... we're just angry i did enjoy i did enjoy
[35:03] the thought of seeing
[35:05] in the name of the king when i saw the trailer
[35:07] silently yeah that was that was my favorite part of the dvd while dan was
[35:11] trying to find there are some great trailers for other movies that we assume
[35:14] were bad before the film
[35:16] so maybe you can rent it for those yeah if you like trailers this one has great
[35:21] trailers everybody yeah it'll get you pumped
[35:24] yeah so let's put that
[35:26] let's put that aside though and talk about
[35:29] let's talk about movies that we've seen recently that
[35:31] we've enjoyed like just
[35:33] you know just a recommendation like whatever the fuck
[35:35] movie that we saw recently that we might like
[35:37] i know uh... i know this might be taking me by surprise and he said earlier that uh...
[35:42] he doesn't like to see a lot of movies you know he's a family man doesn't have time
[35:46] for a lot of movies i watch a lot of partial movies when they're on
[35:49] the hbo
[35:51] home box office yes i have the show time and the stars
[35:57] i watch a lot of
[35:58] the end of movies so who's going first
[36:00] well i was just going to say let's go over to you stewart first and then we'll work our way
[36:04] around a little bit of time to think
[36:06] okay uh... i actually have two recommendations because i watched them both kind of recently
[36:11] the first is i re-watched uh... because i didn't
[36:13] remember that i'd watched it until i started watching it again and then i was
[36:17] like holy shit i watched this
[36:19] uh... was i re-watched fright night
[36:21] and that movie is fucking really good that's a great movie man it's like the
[36:25] score is awesome the performances roddy mcdowell
[36:28] yeah roddy mcdowell's awesome amanda burse is really sexy
[36:33] uh... sarandon is fucking amazing
[36:37] so sensual in that movie
[36:39] oh it's amazing
[36:41] and so that was great if you haven't seen fright night in a while you should watch it again
[36:44] because it's fucking really good
[36:46] and then the other movie i watched recently
[36:48] is a french movie called inside uh... it just came out on dvd a little bit ago
[36:53] it got a fair amount of press
[36:55] uh... it's about a pregnant woman who gets attacked by this crazy woman who
[36:59] tries to steal her baby with a pair of shears
[37:03] so what you're saying is if you are pregnant yourself
[37:06] you should watch this movie uh...
[37:08] this movie is
[37:09] fucking gory
[37:11] okay
[37:12] i'm serious
[37:13] if you want to watch a movie that's really gory
[37:17] you should watch this movie because it is fucked up
[37:19] it is gory as hell
[37:21] and i don't say it like it takes a serious movie to make me say that but it
[37:24] is gory so if you want to watch something that
[37:28] probably might make you sick
[37:29] you should totally watch this movie
[37:31] nice that's quite a recommendation
[37:33] that's what we call a conditional recommendation it's it's basically like
[37:37] if you think you like gory movies
[37:39] let's see if you got the stones for this one buster
[37:42] i like that you said buster
[37:44] yep that's my two recommendations
[37:46] well i watched a movie the other night
[37:48] called mister jealousy
[37:50] it's a noah bombach movie
[37:53] oh fuck that guy
[37:55] not ermah bombach
[37:59] he did uh... squid in the whale
[38:02] and then uh... his first movie was kicking and screaming
[38:06] which i like displayed stewart's off-mic
[38:10] that's the movie about the people deciding what to do with their lives
[38:13] yeah deciding what to do after they left
[38:15] yeah i didn't watch that movie because i'm
[38:17] i've been struggling with it for twenty that question for twenty years i didn't need to
[38:20] well let's focus on squid in the whale then
[38:23] well let's focus on squid in the whale then
[38:26] mister jealousy mister jealousy mister jealousy was the movie that he made in
[38:30] between those two movies
[38:32] and those two movies got a lot more attention than mister jealousy mister jealousy was like
[38:36] his sophomore film that got sort of middling reviews and then
[38:41] he sort of disappeared for several years until he made squid in the whale
[38:46] but it's a lot of fun like it's a very underrated movie
[38:49] i'm not going to say it's like this lost masterpiece or anything but
[38:53] stars eric stoltz
[38:55] and uh... annabella sciorra and uh...
[38:59] you know it's about
[39:00] basically what the title would suggest you know eric stoltz is just a guy
[39:04] who's extremely jealous and eric stoltz you mean mask
[39:08] yes okay i mean mask yeah please don't refer to him as a mask
[39:12] mask follows annabella sciorra's old boyfriend chris eichmann
[39:17] into uh... group therapy and pretends to be another guy just to find out
[39:22] information about the ex-boyfriend
[39:24] and it's sort of like farcical but it's pitched at sort of a character
[39:29] comedy level it's not so much plot driven
[39:32] but it's a really good movie i would recommend seeing it if you like sort of
[39:37] indie comedies
[39:38] and that's what i have to say about that and you know i like indie comedies
[39:43] so we just set you up it was like t-ball we set the ball for you now you
[39:47] gotta knock it out of the park brother
[39:49] well like dan said i don't see a lot of movies i was forced to uh...
[39:54] to watch alien vs predator 2
[39:56] i don't know if you guys have seen this movie alien vs predator 2
[39:58] i just saw it
[40:00] so you're recommending that i think that uh... when i was in uh... all you know
[40:04] i didn't see
[40:05] i was in uh... perico
[40:07] okay my homeland
[40:08] yeah i got my at my aunt and uncle have these videos from their that they're
[40:12] uh... my cousin's leave and they left uh... movies are charlie in the chocolate
[40:15] factory one
[40:17] okay which i had
[40:18] vehemently been
[40:19] you know opposed to when i watched it and
[40:21] uh... i did not enjoy it
[40:23] my thought it was uh... you know
[40:24] uh... i enjoyed it more than i thought i would like it. I think you've missed the point of this segment. You've got to recommend something to me.
[40:29] No, I'm sorry. I hate everything.
[40:31] Oh, okay.
[40:33] I didn't despise
[40:34] Jumper.
[40:36] Oh, nice. No, recommend this.
[40:39] I'd like you to justify this to our audience.
[40:41] Because we may do Jumper in a future plot house.
[40:47] I thought the Jumper is fun
[40:49] for the first forty-five minutes where it's actually entertaining, where he's actually living the life of the Jumper.
[40:54] So what you're saying is you recommend the first forty-five minutes of Jumper.
[40:58] Turn off the TV and do something in your house with your time.
[41:02] Maybe clean up the living room.
[41:05] Maybe, you know,
[41:06] Maybe write a screenplay for Jumper 2. Draw a picture about Jumper. What do you think Jumper might do next?
[41:11] With more valuable use of your time.
[41:15] I have a whole book of what Jumper might do next.
[41:20] I think you do a lot of drawings of things.
[41:24] Jumper might go to the store.
[41:26] Which store?
[41:29] He can only go places he's seen.
[41:33] So, you know, it's limited to that.
[41:36] So he's not going to go to a French store?
[41:37] Like a D'Agostino's?
[41:40] He might, if he has a hankering for a terrible experience in grocery shopping.
[41:45] No, I'm sorry, I'm thinking of Christie's.
[41:49] Wait, wait, wait, wait.
[41:51] Christie's sponsors this show.
[41:54] Oh my goodness. Terribly affordable.
[41:59] Terribly delicious food.
[42:01] It's terrible that I can't eat everything
[42:04] from Christie's.
[42:05] Oh man, we had some laughs. So, Jumper good.
[42:10] First forty-five minutes good. I apologize for ruining this segment of the show.
[42:14] I would like to take a moment and say, by the way,
[42:18] if you watched The Daily Show,
[42:20] what's that, Dan?
[42:21] It's a popular television show starring Jon Stewart on Comedy Central.
[42:26] People say I look like him sometimes.
[42:28] Really? Yeah, sure. I can see that.
[42:31] I like to draw it out of people.
[42:33] Sure, if it doesn't happen naturally.
[42:37] I can see it. I squint a little bit.
[42:43] Please don't make me count the calendar days back.
[42:45] Oh, yes, yesterday.
[42:48] Our regular co-host, Elliot, had a rather large cameo on the show.
[42:54] Wow.
[42:54] And you can see that by going to the FlophousePodcast.blogspot.com.
[43:00] Thanks to the Comedy Central embeddable player of Daily Show Clips,
[43:05] we have the Daily Show Clip with Elliot up there.
[43:09] So, if you're upset for some reason, if Lou didn't satisfy you...
[43:13] And I'm sure I have not satisfied you.
[43:15] If you want a little Elliot fix, you can go and see him.
[43:19] And he does a very funny...
[43:22] He corrects Jon Stewart about Wolverine.
[43:24] Don't ruin it.
[43:25] Let them see it. Don't ruin it.
[43:27] I'm just being vague. He corrects Jon Stewart about Wolverine.
[43:29] That's all I'm saying.
[43:30] In case you didn't know what he looked like.
[43:31] Which is really funny because, like, I have to say,
[43:33] when I was watching the segment on TV,
[43:37] I taped it on my TiVo-like thing.
[43:41] Is that a VCR?
[43:43] A DVR.
[43:44] Okay. It's a TVR-like thing.
[43:47] Yeah, I taped it and I was watching it,
[43:49] and Jon Stewart makes this joke about Wolverine
[43:53] that is factually incorrect.
[43:55] Or at least factually incorrect in so much as
[43:57] anything about Wolverine can be factually incorrect
[43:59] since he's a fictional character.
[44:01] And I was thinking to myself,
[44:03] wasn't Elliot there to correct them?
[44:06] If anyone would correct the Daily Show staff
[44:09] about a matter of comics, it would be Elliot Kaelin.
[44:12] And then, lo and behold, Elliot shows up in a cameo
[44:16] to do just that.
[44:17] He corrects them, yeah.
[44:18] That's pretty good.
[44:19] That was pretty good.
[44:20] So go to the website and check that out.
[44:22] I will.
[44:23] Wait, what website was that again?
[44:25] It's theflophousepodcast.vlogspot.com.
[44:29] I'll be right over.
[44:31] And if you wanted to email us, it's similarly named...
[44:34] Wait, what's the email address?
[44:36] It's theflophousepodcastatgmail.com.
[44:40] Hey, maybe I'll drop a line
[44:41] after I watch that embedded Comedy Central footage.
[44:44] Also, we have a Facebook group.
[44:47] So if you want to search for The Flophouse on Facebook...
[44:50] Maybe right on our wall.
[44:51] I wish I could join twice, Dan.
[44:53] I've already joined.
[44:54] Really?
[44:55] What about the MySpace?
[44:56] Are we on MySpace?
[44:57] We are also on MySpace.
[44:58] I know it's not as fashionable anymore with the kids.
[45:01] That's right.
[45:02] MySpace is downmarket, Dan.
[45:06] We're getting old.
[45:07] Man, this was a good podcast.
[45:10] I can't believe we talked this long
[45:11] about such a fucking turd.
[45:14] Well...
[45:16] I think we should...
[45:17] It wasn't good.
[45:18] I think because we're so angry,
[45:19] we should leave our audience
[45:22] with some words of encouragement.
[45:23] Okay, what's that?
[45:24] I don't know.
[45:25] I thought maybe you would have some.
[45:27] Oh, wait.
[45:27] Why don't we come up with a list of movies
[45:28] that we might watch next time?
[45:30] That'll get people excited.
[45:31] Sure.
[45:32] Maybe like fucking Jumper.
[45:33] Or not.
[45:34] That's probably really good.
[45:35] The first 45 minutes of Jumper
[45:36] before you begin drawing.
[45:37] I thought that maybe we would wanna see
[45:39] that movie Untraceable
[45:41] about the internet that kills people.
[45:42] I wanted to see that movie.
[45:44] I'll watch it alone.
[45:46] Well, you can listen to our podcast about it.
[45:48] Yep, and then you can listen in on the guys.
[45:50] Us being the guys.
[45:51] Yeah, that sounds great, dude,
[45:52] because I'm scared of the internet.
[45:53] Sure, the internet is new and scary,
[45:56] or at least as new as anything
[45:57] that's like 20 years old can be.
[45:59] Do you think there's gonna be nudity in that movie, Dan?
[46:02] I don't know.
[46:03] I don't know if Diane Lane's in it,
[46:04] so maybe, but probably not.
[46:06] She's gotta make it in that movie.
[46:06] In another movie with un and bull in it, right?
[46:10] Untraceable, unfaithful.
[46:12] Mm.
[46:13] Mm.
[46:13] It's not really a bull.
[46:14] Don't worry about it.
[46:15] It's just an un.
[46:16] Un.
[46:17] I'm just hoping that that movie
[46:18] has parts that are traceable,
[46:19] because I will be drawing.
[46:20] That's it.
[46:21] You will be drawing what you hope to be
[46:24] and you will traceable.
[46:25] I wonder what would be traceable in this movie.
[46:27] I wonder what other adventures Diane Lane might get into.
[46:30] I'll send you pictures of me
[46:31] with a piece of paper up on the TV as I trace.
[46:34] If you Flophouse listeners have ideas
[46:37] of what Diane Lane might do on the internet,
[46:40] why don't you draw them and send them to us?
[46:42] Even better, imagine what she would do
[46:44] if she were a jumper.
[46:45] Oh, nice.
[46:46] Where would she go?
[46:47] That's mixing them together
[46:48] and then had to battle a shitload of aliens.
[46:49] What if Hayden Christensen and Diane Lane met?
[46:54] He has shed Anakin Skywalker to be a man.
[46:59] Yep.
[47:00] A jumping man.
[47:01] A jumping man that might get paralyzed
[47:03] and have an operation performed on him
[47:06] while he can still feel it all.
[47:09] I'm still awake.
[47:11] They should have called it I'm still awake, by the way.
[47:15] Well, we've come full circle with Wheels Within Wheels,
[47:18] references to old episodes,
[47:21] talk of Hayden Christensen,
[47:23] talk of jumping, talk of tracing.
[47:25] So I think it's about time to sign off.
[47:27] For The Flophouse, I'm Dan McCoy.
[47:30] I'm Stuart Wellington.
[47:31] And I'm guest host, Lou Fernandez.
[47:35] Good night.
[47:36] Bye.
[47:37] Thanks for seeing or listening to me.
[47:39] Dude, let's watch something good.
[47:41] Here, Stuart, why don't you talk now?
[47:48] I think Diablo Cody's overrated.
[47:51] I thought Juno was kind of crappy to tell you the truth.
[47:53] Can I get a turn back close
[47:53] to the fucking microphone?
[47:54] Talk to me again.
[47:55] Okay, this movie kind of sucked
[47:58] because I didn't want to watch it for very long,
[48:00] but I had to because of this stupid button.
[48:01] Okay, talk as loud as you're gonna talk.
[48:04] I can't believe I watched this movie.
[48:06] It licked my balls.
[48:07] Okay, that's fine.
