Mike

If

Blazing

Saddles

isn't

in

this,

this

is

the

last

episode

that

I'm

doing.

Steve

Railroad

Ralph,

roll

film.

Mike

Over.

Did

you

say

over?

Nothing

is

over

until

we

decide

it

is.

Steve

Was

it

over

when

the

Germans

bombed

Pearl

Harbor?

Mike

Hell,

no.

Steve

He's

not

as

tough

as

he

thinks.

Mike

Neither

are

we.

Before

we

dock,

I

think

we

ought

to

discuss

the

bonus

situation.

This

is

the

business

we've

chosen.

Steve

It's

only

a

part

of

it.

Bud

We

do

have

to

make

certain

concessions

to

the

war.

We're

three

miles

from

the

front

line.

Steve

Prove

that

you

wealthy

college

boys

don't

have

the

education

enough

to

admit

when

you're

wrong.

Mike

Forget

it,

Jake.

Tony

It's

Chinatown.

Steve

Stop.

Don't.

Come

back.

Mike

Don't

you

ever

interrupt

me

while

I'm

conducting

business.

Steve

Your

little

chicken

ass.

But

don't

ever

take

sides

with

anyone

against

the

family

of

you.

We

believe

it

is

a

silly

place.

Welcome

back

to

CinemaDecon.

Hello,

everyone.

We

are

here.

We're

back.

And

there

was

much

rejoicing.

CinemaDecon

makes

his

triumphant

return

to

the

airwaves

with

a

special

series.

We

are

here

on

a

quest

to

find

the

best

movie

of

each

decade,

starting

tonight

with

the

1970s.

My

name

is

Steve

and

I'm

joined

by

a

panel

of

elite

film

historians.

And

over

several

episodes,

we

are

going

to

battle

this

out

bracket

style,

until

one

film

remains.

Let's

meet

our

panel

of

judges.

First,

we

have

Bud,

longtime

collaborator

of

cinema

decon.

Bud

Oh,

it's

always

good

to

be

back

on

the

decon.

Steve

We

have

Mike,

a

frequent

regular

from

our

other

show,

Music

Rewind.

Mike

Hey,

Steve,

thanks

for

having

me

on

this

one.

Steve

We've

got

Tony,

longtime

film

buff,

making

his

podcasting

debut

with

this

series.

Tony

Hey,

guys.

Steve

Good

to

be

here

and

not

currently

on

the

show,

but

maybe

joining

us

a

little

later

if

he

can

get

to

the

mic

in

time,

is

Jamal,

who

many

of

you

will

know

as

our

guest

host

for

the

Predator

2

episode.

Great

episode.

You

will

notice

a

missing

name

in

this

group.

Our

partner

in

crime,

Aaron,

has

decided

to

retire

as

an

on

air

voice.

He

will

be

missed.

Wish

we

had

him

on

the

broadcast,

but

he

is

still

helping

behind

the

scenes.

Especially

when

we

dove

in

to

curate

this

list

of

64

films

from

the

70s

and

he

helped

seed

them

in

the

tournament.

So

if

it's

cool

and

fun,

I

will

take

all

the

credit.

If

the

seeds

suck,

Aaron

gets

all

the

blame.

Sorry,

Aaron.

That's

how

it

goes

when

you're

not

online.

Bud

I

think

that's

a

great

idea.

Steve

Yeah.

So

welcome

guys.

This

is

going

to

be

fun.

Bud

Yeah.

What

do

you

got

for

us

today.

Steve

Well,

explain

the

process

a

bit.

What

we

did.

So

put

together

a

little

cinema

decon

score

aggregator.

Had

a

mixture

of.

Of

the

Metacritic

score,

the

IMDb

did

they

win

on

awards.

But

then

we

put

it

to

several

panelists

who

got

to

vote

on

top

seeds

and

throw

some

ins

and

outs.

And

there's

some

little

cinema

decon

magic

in

there.

In

order

to

get

a

four

seat

or

higher,

you

need

to

hit

several

special

criteria,

as

in,

you

needed

a

special

vote

from

the

voting

panel.

So

a

lot's

gone

into

this,

and

it

was

tough,

but

it's

a

fair

bracket,

and

it's

going

to

be

a

lot

of

fun

to

reveal

these

things

to

you

guys.

So

once

we

get

through

these

seeds

and

everybody

kind

of

sees

what

they've

got

in

front

of

them,

we're

going

to

vote

in

future

episodes.

So

today

is

just

going

to

be

the

reveal.

When

we

do

vote,

it's

going

to

be

unique

to

each

person.

So

each

of

y'all,

you

have

your

own

variables.

So

you

can

go

by

which

movie

is

more

entertaining.

Emotional

weight,

cultural

relevance,

excitement

value,

personal

affiliation,

story,

acting,

directing.

Have

you

even

seen

the

movie?

There's

so

many

different

variables

in.

My

judge

is

going

to

be

different

than

Tony's,

different

than

Buzz,

different

than

Mike's.

All

different.

Before

I

get

into

these

things,

though,

I

do

want

to

mention

one

thing.

These

movies

were

made

over

45

years

ago.

A

lot

of

actors,

directors,

etc

involved

in

these

movies

have

since,

we'll

say,

taken

a

dark

turn.

They

may

have

done

some

bad

stuff

that

has

come

to

light.

We're

not

going

to

focus

on

that.

We're

going

to

try

to

focus

on

the

film

as

it

is,

to

the

best

of

our

human

ability.

Oh,

yeah,

looking

at

you,

Roman

Polanski,

Woody

Allen.

Anyway.

Oh,

and

spoilers.

So

if

you

haven't

seen

these

movies

that

are

over

45

years

old,

tough

wrong

podcast

to

listen

to.

Mike

Wait,

it

was.

It

was

Fredo

all

along.

Bud

You

didn't

know?

Steve

Whoops.

All

right,

so

y'all

ready

for

this?

Bud

Let's

do

it.

Mike

I'm

gonna

make

them

an

awful

camera

for

you.

Steve

Okay,

we're

starting

out

with

the

one

seed.

Starting

out

strong

here.

These

are

the

number

ones

across

all

four

brackets.

North,

south,

east,

and

west.

We

have

Alien

from

1979,

the

Godfather

from

1972,

the

Godfather

Part

2,

1974,

and

Taxi

Driver,

1976.

Interesting

juggernauts

going

in

right

there

off

the

top.

Mike

It's

interesting.

You

have,

like,

kind

of

like

a

horror

sci

fi

movie

in

a

one

seed.

Steve

You

know,

Alien

is

going

to

be

tough

to

beat.

Bud

Yeah.

I

mean,

that

is

really

iconic,

but

I

mean,

so

is

Godfather.

Steve

Yeah.

And

you

can

only

have,

obviously

two

in

the

championship

and

one

one

stand.

And

so

this.

Bud

Right.

Steve

I

mean,

Taxi

Driver

and

we

will

get

to

it

when

we

get

to

it,

but

that's.

That

one

doesn't

have

as

special

a

place

in

my

heart

as

compared

to

the

other

three.

Mike

So

Steve,

is

Alien

and

Godfather

on

the

same

side

of

the

final

four?

Ish.

Or.

Or.

Steve

I

don't

remember.

Mike

Okay.

And

you,

and

you

and

you

named

them

by

the

regions

like

you

did

for

March

Madness.

You

didn't,

like,

name

the

regions

based

off

of,

like,

iconic

characters

or

anything

like

that?

Steve

I

did

not.

They

are

north,

south,

east

and

west.

I

just

kept

it

as

simple

as

I

could

for,

you

know,

us

a

simpletons.

Mike

Did

you?

Oh.

So

that

means

depending

on

where

the

movie

takes

place,

then

that's

where

it's

located.

Steve

Once

we

get

through

the

seeds,

then

we'll

look

at

the

matchups.

We're

going

to

get

into

that.

You'll

see

them

here.

Mike

Rock

and

roll.

Steve

All

right.

Mike

Anything.

Steve

I

say,

what

a

wonderful

philosophy

you

have.

Our

Number

Twos,

1973,

Enter

the

Dragon,

1979,

Mad

Max,

1971,

the

French

Connection,

and

1977's

Close

Encounters

of

the

Third

Kind.

Bud

I've

never

looked

at

mashed

potatoes

the

same

after

watching

that

movie.

Steve

Which

one?

Bud

Close

Encounters.

Close

Encounters.

Yeah.

Mike

I

do

that

or

I

struggle

to.

Steve

Get

through

that

every

time.

Bud

Really.

Steve

It's

just

boring.

Bud

Yeah,

it's

a

very

slow

movie.

Steve

I

mean,

I

know

everyone.

It's

got

such

a

great

reputation.

I've

tried.

I've

tried

several

times,

but

I've

just.

It's.

It's

just

so

boring.

Tony

I

have

not

watched

that

one

before.

Bud

Mad

Max.

That's

good.

Mike

I

think

I've

seen

like,

parts

of

it

and.

And

Mad

Max.

I

don't

know.

I

mean,

that's

a

tough

one

without

Tina

Turner

and

Thunderdome.

Steve

Several

of

these

in

this

list.

I

actually.

Not

this.

Well,

this

one

particularly,

but

the

whole

thing

I've

re.

Watched

or

watched

for

the

first

time.

Mad

Max

being

one

of

them.

And

it

was

not

what

I

remembered

at

all.

No,

I

said.

You

remember

Road

Warrior.

Tony

Yeah.

Steve

So,

yeah,

there's.

There

could

be

some

upsets

here

and

there.

Mike

We'll.

Steve

We'll

see

how

the.

How

the

full

panel

goes.

Bud

Yeah.

Mike

Leave

your

troubles

outside.

Z.

Life

is

disappointing.

Forget

it.

In

here.

Live

is

beautiful.

Steve

Number

three,

the

Sting,

1973,

Cabaret,

1972,

Jaws,

1975,

and

MASH

1970.

Mike

All

right,

so

we

Got

like

our

first

comedy.

I

guess

you

want

to

consider

it

mash.

Steve

I

mean,

MASH

is

definitely

a

comedy.

It's

a

dark

comedy,

but.

Mike

It's

dark

comedy.

But

yeah,

this

is

like

your

first

comedy.

Steve

Oh,

yeah.

The

seventies

were

quite

dour.

Mike

Yeah.

Steve

There's

some

other

comedies.

Mike

Honestly,

the

fact

that

Blazing

Saddles

isn't

in

the

top

three

in

anything

is

disappointing.

They

tell

you

exactly

how

that

voting

is

going

to

go

for

me.

Tony

Well,

the

votes

that

I've

ranked,

you

know,

none

of

these

movies

were

really

on

my

rankings.

Steve

I

was

surprised

Jaws

wasn't

higher,

though.

Jaws

was

one

that

I

would

have

expected

to

be

one

or

two.

But

no,

I

got.

It

got

bumped

down.

Mike

I

mean,

so

iconic.

Yeah.

Bud

Yeah.

And

I

can't

tell

you

how

many

times

I've

said,

I

need

to

get

a

bigger

boat.

Steve

Yeah.

So

quotable.

I

mean.

Bud

Right.

Steve

And

that's

one

that

I

actually

watched

recently

just

because

it

happened

to

be

on

Netflix.

And.

And

yeah,

it

still

holds

up

quite

strong.

Tony

The

third

act

straight.

Steve

It's

fantastic.

Bud

And

honestly,

1975

special

effects

and

how

they

handled

all

that,

I

thought

that

was

pretty

cool,

too.

Mike

Yeah.

Steve

Yeah.

It

made

them

focus

on

the

characters

and

they

built

up

those

main

three

guys

really,

really

well.

Mike

I

still

think

they're

jerks

for

what

they

did

to

that

woman,

though,

at

the

beginning,

not

telling

her

that

they're

going

to

grab

her

leg

and

stuff.

Bud

Oh,

that's

right.

To

scare.

Mike

Like,

that's

legit.

Bud

Yeah.

Mike

I'll

tell

you

what,

if

I'm

out

in

the

dark

like

that

and

someone

grabbed

and

I'm

in

that

water

and

someone

grabs

my

leg,

that's

instant

heart

attack.

Like,

that's

the

end

of

me.

Steve

Well,

assuming

she

knew

she

was

on

a

show

called

Jaws.

Mike

Well,

right.

Bud

But

I

mean,

that's

a

bold

assumption.

Though.

Tony

I

got

a

question

about

MASH

because

I've

only

watched,

you

know,

I've

watched

most

of

the

TV

show.

Is

it

the

same

cast?

Steve

It

is

not

only

Radar.

Mike

Yeah.

I

was

like,

really?

At

least

one.

One

or

one

person

for

sure.

Steve

Radar

is

the

only

one

that

transfers.

But

it's

totally

worth

it.

It's

a

fantastic

movie.

Mike

Donald

Sutherland

alone

is

worth

it.

Yeah.

Steve

You

get

the

origin

of

the

name

Hot

Lips,

too?

Mike

Yep.

Steve

Robert

Duvall

is.

Ah,

what

the

hell's

the.

The

Major's

name?

Major

Burns.

Robert

is

Major

Burns.

Bud

Wow.

Mike

But

I

was

going

into

Toshi

Station

to

pick

up

some

power

converters.

Steve

Number

four

we've

got

for

our

four

seeds.

The

Deer

Hunter,

1978,

Apocalypse

Now,

1979,

Star

Wars,

1977

and

Deliverance

in

1972.

Mike

A

lot

of

upbeat

movies

here.

Tony

Must

be

Burt

Reynolds

or

something.

Bud

Why

is

Star

wars

number

four?

Steve

Because

it's

not

Empire.

Bud

Yeah,

I

guess

that's

still

hard

to

hear,

but

okay.

Steve

But

I

mean,

well,

you

got

to

look

at

its

competition,

too.

I

mean,

can

you.

I

mean,

we'll

get

there,

but

I

mean,

can

you

really

put

Star

wars

up

against

the

Godfather

And.

Bud

Well,

I

know.

I

mean,

that's

what

I'm

trying

to

say

is,

like,

that

Star

wars

was

just

as

iconic

as

all

of

those.

So.

So

it.

Steve

And

yeah,

and

if

one

of

your

personal

criteria

is

cultural

relevance,

I

mean,

Star

wars

is.

Is

right

there

in

one

of

the

top

notches.

A

lot

higher

than

Deliverance,

other

than,

you

know,

the

one

scene.

Mike

Yeah,

Deliverance

is

really

kind

of.

I

was

kind

of

disappointed

in

it,

like,

I

guess.

I

mean,

if

I'm

be

honest

with

you,

like,

that

one

scene.

Yeah,

it's

creepy

as,

like,

there's

a

lot

of

just

like,

nobody

ever

goes

tubing

or

boating

in

the

Illinois

Valley

thinking.

And

by

the

time

somebody

goes,

man,

I

hope

we

don't

hear

any

dueling

banjos.

Like,

that's

like

instant.

Tony

Not

now.

Maybe

in

the

70s,

though,

right?

Mike

Oh,

yeah.

I

mean,

I

think

this

is.

This

is

for,

like,

guys

like

my

age

that,

like,

you

know,

he

grew

up

with

this

with

before

Internet

and.

Steve

Yeah,

yeah.

I

mean,

the

dueling

banjos

alone,

just

that

melody,

it

puts

you

right

there,

you

know,

in

that

one

scene.

I

feel

the

same

way

about

the

Deer

Hunter.

Honestly.

I

love

Apocalypse

Now.

Great,

great

flick.

But

Deer

Hunter,

I've

seen

it

twice,

and

I

have

no

desire

to

ever

watch

it

again.

Tony

I

actually

just

saw

a

video

this

morning

about

Apocalypse

Now.

Lawrence

Fishburne

lied

about

his

age.

He

was

only

14.

Bud

Seriously?

Oh,

that's

awesome.

Steve

He

definitely

looks

young

in

there,

though.

I

wouldn't

have

put

him

at

14,

but

he

definitely

looked

young.

Mike

Where

you

going,

General

Berlin?

Steve

I'm

gonna

personally

shoot

that

paper

hanging,

son.

All

right,

let's

see.

Number

five

is

Monty

Python

on

the

Holy

Grail,

1975,

Patton

from

1970,

Texas

Chainsaw

Massacre,

1974,

and

Halloween

from

1978.

Mike

It's

pretty

high

for

some

horror

movies.

Tony

I

think

it's

our

fourth

or

fifth

horror

right

here.

Bud

Yeah,

I'm

seeing

a.

I'm

definitely

seeing

a

trend

here.

Mike

It's

interesting.

Is

that

because

the

Real

Housewife

was

in

that

Halloween

movie?

Steve

Is

that

why

Jamie

Lee

Curtis.

Mike

No,

Real

Housewife.

The

little

girl

in

it

is,

like,

on

the

Real

Housewives

of,

like,

New

York.

Or

something.

Bud

Oh,

really?

Mike

Or

Beverly

Hills.

Her

and

her

sister,

like

the

little

girl,

the

dark

haired

girl.

Steve

I

don't

have

the,

the

knowledge

of

the

Real

Housewives

series

that

you.

That

you

do.

Mike

I

unfortunately

was.

It

was

forced

upon

me

for

a

couple

years

of

my

life

and.

Steve

Ah,

okay.

Bud

That's

what

they

all

say.

Mike

And

I

still

know

them

all.

I

could

go

back

in.

It's

like

stove

operas.

You

could

just

like

go

right

back

into

it

and

know

what's

going

on

with

like

in

a

week.

Steve

I

watched

Mob

Wives

for

a

while.

That

was

entertaining.

Mike

Yeah.

I

mean,

for

a

while

it's

entertained.

Then

it's

kind

of

the

same

stuff,

like

just

manufactured

drama.

And

you're.

By

the

time.

Steve

Oh,

absolutely.

Yeah.

Mike

You're

just

like,

okay,

I

get

it.

Come

on.

Bud

I

mean,

I

will

say

for,

for,

for

the,

for

the

fives.

I

love

all

of

these

movies.

I

think

they're

all

great.

Tony

Yeah.

We

talked

about

Jaws

being

quotable.

I

can't

go

a

week

without

quoting

Monty

Python.

Bud

Exactly.

Yeah.

Steve

Yeah.

I

mean,

that's

a

fantastic

movie.

Love

that

movie.

Mike

For

Christ's

sake.

Isn't

it

one

of

you

maniacs

that

knows

what

I'm

talking

about?

Steve

All

right,

let's

see.

Number

six.

Our

six

seeds

are

Dog

Day

Afternoon,

1975.

Network.

1976.

All

the

President's

Men,

1976.

And

One

Flew

over

the

Cuckoo's

Nest,

1975.

Bud

Wow.

Mike

So

this,

I'm

gonna

plead

ignorance

on

this

one

network

is

the

one

where

older

guy

says,

I'm

mad

as

hell.

I'm

not

gonna

take

it

anymore.

Right.

Steve

Yes.

Mike

Okay.

I've

never

seen

it.

I

just

know

that

scene.

Steve

And

Dog

Day

Afternoon

is

the.

Is

Attica.

Mike

Yeah.

Steve

Al

Pacino

screaming

Attica.

The

bank

heist

gone

wrong

or

something.

Mike

Right.

Steve

I

have

not

seen

those

two

movies.

So

I.

I'm

gonna

try

and

watch

them,

but

I

haven't

seen

those

two.

The

other

two

I

own

and

they're

fantastic.

Both

of

them.

Yeah,

yeah.

One

Flew

of

the

Cuckoo's

Nest.

That's.

That's

one

that

I

didn't

watch

until

maybe

five

years

ago.

It

was

during

COVID

I

caught

that

one

and

it

was.

It

was

great.

I

was.

It

shocked

me.

Mike

Yeah,

he's.

I

mean,

Jack

does

a

great

job.

Steve

In

that

playing

himself.

Tony

I

didn't

watch

all

the

President's

Men

until

I.

I

watched

Spotlight

and

I

was

looking

for

similar

movies

and

I

just

was

shocked

that

I

had

never

seen

it.

It

was,

it

was.

It

was

great.

Steve

It's

really

interesting

how

they

get

information

out

of

people

in

that

one.

That's

what

I

enjoyed

about

all

the

President's

man.

They're

like,

they'll

meet

someone.

Like,

okay,

you

can't

talk

to

me,

but

if

you

don't

say

anything

in

five

minutes,

I'm

just

gonna

say

that

your

story

was

true.

Maybe.

Tony

So

they're

all

real

people.

Is

this

the

first

movie

that's

on

here

that's

real

people?

Steve

It's

a

good

question.

Mike

Wait,

Star

Wars.

Is

it

real?

Tony

What's

interesting

is

the.

Their

boss,

the

older

gentleman

in

that

movie

that.

That

character

Patton

is.

Yeah,

Patton.

That

character

was

also

portrayed

by

Tom

Hanks,

I

believe,

in.

Steve

Yeah,

there

was.

The.

Mauricio

was

the

same

person.

Tony

Yeah.

Steve

Yeah.

So.

But

Patton

in

the

five

ranks,

that's

obviously,

you

know,

based

on.

Tony

Plus

Hal

Holbrook.

Bud

Oh.

Mike

A

relationship,

I

think,

is

like

a

shock.

You

know,

it

has

to

constantly

move

forward

or

it

dies.

And

I

think

what

we

got

on

our

hands

is

a

dead

shock.

Steve

All

right,

let's

move

on

to

our

seven

ranks.

Dirty

Harry,

1971,

Chinatown.

1974.

Annie

Hall,

1977,

and

assault

on

Precinct

13,

1976.

Breaks

my

heart

that

Chinatown

is

so

low

in

the

rankings.

Bud

Personally.

Yeah,

I

was

kind

of

wondering

the

same

thing.

And

then

Dirty

Harry.

Talk

about

iconic.

That's

another

iconic

one.

Steve

Chinatown.

We

had

some

people

downvote

it,

so

it'll

be

some

interesting

conversations.

And

I.

I

watched

Annie

hall

in

full

for

the

first

time

a

couple

weeks

ago,

and

I.

I

have

opinions.

Mike

I

mean,

it's

pretty

iconic,

though,

because

he's

one

of

the

first

people

ever

to

do,

like,

the,

you

know,

break

the

fourth

wall

type

thing

in

that

movie.

And

that's

pretty

huge.

And.

Yeah,

I

mean,

I

liked

it.

You

know,

I

mean,

obviously,

if

you.

Steve

Take

out

that

gimmick,

though,

it

was

not.

Mike

Well,

he's

neurotic,

you

know,

and

that's

kind

of

the

point

is,

like,

he

probably

shouldn't

be

with

the

woman

like

Diane

Lane

anyways.

Like,

that's.

It's

like

George

Costanza

in

Seinfeld.

Like,

there's

no

way.

Like,

some

of

the

women

that

he's

with.

Steve

Right.

Mike

Make

any

sense.

Like.

But.

Steve

And

he

gets

slayed

a

lot

in

that

movie.

I

mean.

Mike

Yeah.

Steve

Yeah.

It's

more

than

just

Diane

Lane

is.

It's

like

several

others

as

well.

And

it's

like,

what

the

hell?

Mike

But,

I

mean,

Diane

Lane's,

like,

beautiful.

I

mean,

she's

a

beautiful

woman

now,

but

like

Diane

Keaton,

by

the

way.

Diane

Keaton,

sorry.

She's

a

beautiful

woman

then.

And

then

she's

also

kind

of

like,

Cool.

Like,

she's,

like,

kind

of

too

hip

for

him,

but

I

don't

know.

That's

how

I

always

thought

the

breaking.

Steve

The

fourth

wall

to

me

was

entertaining.

And

I

did

laugh,

but

the

two

characters

themselves,

I

wanted

them,

like,

both

to

lose.

I

thought

they

were

both

terrible

people.

Mike

You

gotta

love

shows

and

TV

and

movies

like

that

where

you're

like,

I

don't

care

who

dies

in

this.

Like,

somebody's

got

to,

though.

Steve

Has

anyone

here

seen

assault

on

Precinct

13?

Bud

Not

me.

Mike

I'm

trying

to

remember

what

it.

What

it

was

about.

Steve

I

have

not.

Tony

Looks

like

it's

a

assault

on

a

police

station.

Steve

I

mean,

due

to

the

rankings,

it

made

the

list

and

it

made

a

number

seven

rank,

but

I

haven't

seen

it.

Mike

Will

be

interested

to

see

what

that

10

seed

is.

Tony

Does

that

say

John

Carpenter?

Steve

I

don't

think

that's

John

Carpenter.

Tony

It

just

looks

like

it

says

John

Carpenter

at

the

bottom.

Steve

Put

the

glasses

on

for

that.

Bud

Yeah,

that's

what

I

see.

Steve

When

you

guys

want

to

Google

that.

Tony

Go

for

it

with

the

supposed

to

be

movie

buffs.

Bud

No,

no,

no,

no,

no.

We

are

elite.

Elite.

Mike

Wait

till

you

get

to

the

90s.

Steve

Oh,

yeah.

I

mean,

I've

already

started

the

list

for

the

80s

and

it's

tough.

It

is

ugly.

Mike

Hey,

Yankees,

you

can

take

your

apology.

Tony

Out

of

your

trophy

and

shove

it.

Steve

Straight

up

your

ass.

All

right,

number

eight

ranks.

We've

got

the

Bad

News

Bears,

1976.

Nice.

The

Exorcist,

1973.

Carrie,

1976.

And

from

the

recently

left

us,

David

Lynch,

Eraserhead,

1977.

Tony

More

horror

movies.

Bud

Yeah,

I

have

not

seen

Eraserhead.

Mike

Yeah,

I

have

not

either.

I

know

when

he

died,

I

was

like,

I

think

I've

never

seen

one

of

his

movies.

Steve

Oh,

I've.

I've

seen

several

of

his

movies

and

they

are

great.

But

I

would

not

put

Eraserhead

personally

in

the,

you

know,

top

64.

It's

fine.

But,

like,

Bedknobs

and

Broomsticks

deserved

better

as

far

as

I'm

concerned.

It

could

have

taken

that

slot.

Tony

I

voted

for

it.

Steve

So

did

I.

But

other

people

didn't.

The

bastards.

But,

yeah,

Eraserhead

is.

Is.

It's

just.

It's

weird

for

the

sake

of

weird.

Mike

Yeah,

well,

it's

David

Lynch.

I

mean,

it's

not

gonna

be

like.

Steve

I

would

prefer

Blue

Velvet

or

Lost

highway

or

Mulholland

Drive,

you

know,

not.

Not

to

mention

the

first

two

seasons

of

Twin

Peaks,

which

are,

you

know,

awesome.

But

the.

Mike

Oh,

yeah,

you

get

the

80s

and

90s

for

that.

Steve

and

Shoehorn.

Those

in.

Steve

But

yeah,

I

mean,

Bad

News

Bears,

the

Exorcist,

those

are

great.

Carrie,

decent

movie.

We'll

see

what

it's

up

against.

But

I

think

the

Exorcist

will

be

a

hard

battle

with,

with,

you

know,

that's

a,

that's

just

a

great

movie.

Mike

Yeah,

that's

really

scary

because

it's.

Bud

Yeah.

You

know,

and

plus

like

Exorcist

is,

is

more

iconic

than

Bad

News

Bears

in

the

grand

scheme

of

things.

I

mean

they

both

have

their,

their,

their

place.

But

I

think

the

Exorcist

is

definitely

on

top.

Steve

The

Bad

News

Bears

has

its

cultural

relevance

due

to,

you

know,

you

can't

make

that

same

movie

again.

I

know

they

tried.

Bud

Correct.

Steve

But

I

mean,

say,

didn't

they.

They

tried

with

Billy

Bob

Thornton,

but

it's

not

the

same

at

all.

Mike

Walter

Matho

is

just

a,

just

a

slob.

Tony

I've

seen

it

once.

Steve

It's,

it's

wonderful.

I

mean

especially,

you

know,

as

a

parent,

you

know,

these,

these

foul

mouth

kids.

I

mean

it

is

a

great

fun

watch

and

it's

not

one

I'm

going

to

let

my

kid

watch

for

a

while

now.

Mike

Like,

doesn't

Taylor

like

smoke

while

she's

pitching

on

the

mound?

Wasn't

one

of

them

like

have

a

cigarette

dangling?

Steve

The

guy

that

played

Rorschach

in

Watchmen.

Yeah,

yeah,

he's,

he's

Kelly

or

someone

camera

the

names

but

he's

like

the

ringer

they

find

he

rides

a

motorcycle

and

stuff.

Tony

I

didn't

know

Carrie

was

Brian

de

Palm.

Steve

Oh,

is

it?

Oh,

no

wonder.

It's,

you

know,

good

movie.

Tony

I've

seen

that

a

couple

times.

I.

As

far

as

Stephen

King

adaptions

go,

you

know,

most

of

them

are

bad.

Carrie's

not

bad.

Steve

Yeah,

you're

right.

Mike

Carrie

is

one

of

the

better

ones.

But

he,

even

when

he

gets

involved

in

me

messes

him.

Steve

Stand

By

Me

and

Misery

are

kind

of

like

top

notch,

you

know,

followed

by

the

Shining.

But

the

Shawshank.

Oh

yeah,

Shawshank.

I

always

forget

that

one.

Stephen

King.

Mike

Well,

remember

that?

That

book

is

Shawshank

and

Rita

Hayward.

Stand

By

Me.

Steve

You

also

got

the

Green

Mile

as

Stephen

King.

Mike

Yeah,

Green

Mile

they

did

a

really

good

job

with.

Because

I

think

it

helped

out

that

it

was

like

serialized.

I

don't

know,

Steve,

if

you

remember,

or

Bud

if

you

remember

like

it

would.

It

came

out

in

sections.

Steve

Yeah,

it

came

out

in.

I

think

it

might

have

been

in

Playboy

or

Penthouse

or

something

where

they

were

releasing

chapters.

Mike

Yeah.

And

then

they.

So

I

remember

they

sold

them

at

Eagle

like

one

like

mini

book

like

part

of

it,

like

at

a

time.

Tony

So

this

must

be

one

of

the

earliest

adaptations

for

Stephen

King.

Steve

Probably,

because.

Because

The

Shining

is

1980.

Mike

Yeah.

Tony

Well,

there's

one

with

a

car,

right?

Christine.

Mike

That's

Christine.

Steve

Christine's

somewhere

like

one

of

his

first

books,

too.

Stephen

King

himself

directed

Maximum

Overdrive.

That's

in

the

early

80s,

you

know.

Yeah.

Buried

Under

a

Pile

of

Cocaine.

Mike

What

a

great

movie.

I

used

to

love

that

movie

when

I

was

a

kid.

Steve

That

was

wild.

But

I

mean

that,

that's

why

Stephen

King

is

so

divisive

when

it

comes

to

movies.

Because

you've

got

your.

Your

miseries

and

your

standby

me's,

but

then

you've

got

Maximum

Overdrive

and

then

the

Night

Flyer

and

the

Langoliers.

Mike

Yeah.

Tony

Salem's

Lot.

Steve

Salem's

Lot.

Needful

things.

I

mean,

the

Mist

was

good.

Tony

I

like

that.

Mike

Even,

Even

the

new

Salem's

Lot

was

bad.

Steve

Was

it?

I

didn't

watch

it.

Tony

It

wasn't.

Mike

It

was

going

to

be

better.

I

really.

Marissa

and

I

watched

it

and

we're

like.

I

was

like,

marissa,

this

is

Salem's

Lot.

I

think

it's

gonna

be

better.

It's

a

new

version

of

it.

Steve

And

it

was.

Mike

And

I

was

so

disappointed.

I

was

like,

man,

I.

Because

he

was

like

involved

in

it

and

I'm

like,

how

are

you

involved?

And

you

let

it

go.

Like,

I

don't

know.

That's

why

I'm

nervous

about

them

doing

the

Dark

Tower.

Steve

I

heard

that

Dark

Tower

recently

was

terrible

though,

with.

Mike

Well,

okay,

so

Steve,

the

Dark

Tower

series

is

like.

Steve

Well,

they

fit

like

what,

10,

10

books

into

one

90

minute

movie.

Mike

But

the

guy

who.

The

guy

from

Netflix

that

did

like

the

Haunting

the

Hill

House

and.

Steve

Oh

yeah,

Flanagan,

right.

Mike

Mike

Flanagan

is

taking.

He's

going

to

Amazon

to

basically

do

the

Dark

Tower.

Steve

Okay.

I'm

all

for

that

because

he

did

great

on

doctor

Sleep.

Mike

I

agree.

Doctor

Sleep

was

fantastic.

Tony

I

think

it's

Apple

tv.

Mike

Is

it

Apple

tv?

I

knew

he

was

going

somewhere,

but

I'm

just

nervous

because

unless

they're

doing

like

guaranteed

five

seasons

minimum

with

that,

it's

going

to

be

impossible

to

make

that.

Steve

Well,

I

mean,

if

he,

if

he's

made

a

great

name

for

himself,

so

maybe

he's

got

the

backing

and

the,

the

clout

and

the

money

to.

To

do

that.

Because

I'd

like

to

see.

See

it

done

properly.

I've

read

the

first

two

books,

but

then

I

lost

interest.

Mike

Oh,

yeah,

I.

Bud

You

got

the

whole.

Steve

But

I

mean,

like

recently

you

had

it.

Which

was,

you

know,

well

received.

Mike

Yeah,

I

thought

they

did

a

good

job

with

that.

Steve

Yeah.

Mike

I'm

still

happy

they

kept

out

the

one

part

of

it

that

does

not

need

to

ever

be

shown

on

television

or

movies.

But.

Steve

Yeah,

the.

I.

I

assume

you

mean

the

part

that

several

70s

directors

would

approved

of.

Mike

Yes.

Tony

I

didn't

know

that

existed

until

recently.

Mike

Yeah,

it's

only

in

the

book.

And

thank

God

they

never

did

it.

Like,

I

don't

know

how

they

would

ever

got

it

through

even

back

then.

Steve

What?

Knockers.

Mike

Oh,

thank

you,

doctor.

Steve

All

right,

well,

let's

move

on

into

the

nine

seeds

here.

Mike

Well,

these

guys

are

playing

each

other.

Steve

Serpico,

1973,

Young

Frankenstein,

1974,

Kramer

vs

Kramer,

1979,

and

Superman

the

movie,

1978.

Mike

Wow.

Steve

First

Mel

Brooks

and

our

first

superhero

movie.

Bud

Kind

of

surprised.

Superman

is

at

9.

Steve

You

expect

higher

or

lower?

Bud

I.

I

mean,

it's.

It's

such

a.

It

was

such

an

iconic

movie

back

in

its

time.

I

mean,

it

was.

Mike

And

Reeves

is

just

such

a

great

job.

Bud

Everybody

talked

about

it.

Everybody

talked

about

it

for

years

and

years

and

years.

They

talked

about

that.

People

have

talked

about

the

movie

and

they

still.

Steve

They

still

debate

the

morals

of

time

travel

by

spinning

around

the

earth.

Bud

Sure.

For

sure.

Mike

Comic

book,

Steve.

It's

comic

books.

Steve

Well,

the.

I

mean,

it

deserves

to

be

up

here

for

its

theme

alone.

I

mean,

that's.

Yeah,

that

score

is

fantastic.

Mike

Yeah.

Tony

And

this

is

Christopher

Reeve.

Steve

Yeah,

it's

the

first

Christopher

Reeves

movie.

Mike

Okay.

Steve

I

haven't

seen

it.

Mike

And

Kramer

vs.

Caver

is

Cosmo

vs.

His

mother

in

a

battle

for

something.

Is

that

what

that

one

is?

Steve

Yeah.

Dustin

Hoffman's

her

son.

Mike

Yeah.

Steve

If.

I

mean,

if

I

had

to

pick

out

of

these

four,

I

mean,

I

watch

Young

Frankenstein

all

day,

every

day.

Mike

So,

yeah,

it's

a

great

movie.

I.

I'll

be

honest

with

you.

I

am.

I

know

it's

probably

mostly

because

of

Young

Frankenstein

is

a

little

cleaner

of

a

movie

to

the

PG

audience,

but

there's

no

reason

on

earth

that

Blazing

Saddles

is

below

Young

Frankenstein.

Blazing

Sales

is

one

of

the

greatest

movies

of

all

time.

But

I'm

saying

it

right

now.

Steve

I

can't

argue

that.

Bud

And

I

can't

either.

Steve

If

it's

in

here,

it

may

be

the.

The

Cinderella

team.

You

never

know.

Mike

If

Blazing

Saddles

isn't

in

this,

this

is

the

last

episode

that

I'm

doing.

Bud

Hey,

so

do

we

get

to

do

like

a.

A

golden

button

kind

of

thing

to

where

we

can

push

it

and

just

be

like,

no,

this

movie

belongs

in

a

different

ranking.

Steve

No,

damn

it.

Rankings

are

final.

Just.

Just

like

when

Illinois

gets

on

and

gets

a,

you

know,

10

or

11

seed.

They

gotta

play

the.

Play

the

seed

they're

given.

Tony

Nice

to

see.

Cerberko

got

a

good

rating

when

I

added

it

to

the

list.

Steve

Yeah,

I

actually

forgot

about

Serpico,

so.

Yeah,

Tony

threw

that

in

there.

Mike

Is

it.

Okay,

that's.

Real

quick.

Serpico,

right,

is.

What's

his.

His

brother

from

the

Godfather's

in

that

movie

as

well,

right?

Steve

No,

that's.

Dog

Day

Afternoon.

Mike

Dog

Day

Afternoon.

Okay.

I

could

never.

I

could

always.

Because

he's

only

in

a

handful

of

movies.

And

then

he

died.

Right.

From,

like,

cancer.

Steve

Because

I

think

he's

in

the

Deer

Hunter

too.

Mike

Okay.

Steve

Yeah.

So

he,

like.

He

had,

like,

a

hell

of

a

run

of,

you

know.

Mike

Oh,

yeah.

His.

His

run

is

impressive.

And

then

he

was,

like,

dead

then.

I

think

I

asked

my

dad.

I'm

like,

the

guy

that

played

Fredo.

Do

anything?

Steve

Oh.

Tony

I

was

like,

james

Kahn

just

died

recently.

Steve

I

can't

think

of

his

name

now.

But,

yeah,

the.

Fredo

is

who.

Mike

Like

John.

It's

John

something.

Steve

Don

Frazil.

Mike

Yeah,

something

like

that.

Steve

Don't

have

IMDb

up

on

me

at

the

moment,

but.

And

I

haven't

seen

Serpico.

I

am

going

to

watch

it

before

we

dive

into

these.

So

that's.

That's.

That

one's.

Mike

That's

like

Undercover

Cap

1.

Steve

I

think

so.

Mike

Yeah.

Steve

I

think

they

remade

that,

actually.

Mike

That's

why

I

think

I

remember

it,

because

somebody

redid

it,

provided

the

movement

never

forgets

that

it

is

the

unalienable

right

of

every

man.

Steve

Or

woman.

Or

woman

to

rid

himself.

Mike

Or

herself.

Steve

Or

herself.

Bud

Agree.

Mike

Thank

you,

brother.

Or

sister.

Steve

Or

sister.

Where

was

I?

Okay,

number

10

seeds.

Westworld,

1973.

Monty

Python's

Life

of

Bryant,

1979.

A

Clockwork

Orange,

1971.

And

National

Lampoon's

Animal

House,

1978.

Bud

That

was

a

good

one.

Yeah.

Brian,

another

great

one.

Steve

Yes.

We

got

some

comedies

in

there.

This.

The

comedies

are

on

the.

The

lower

side

of

the

brackets.

Bud

Life

of

Brian.

That's

the

Bring

out

your

dead.

Steve

No,

that's.

That's

Holy

Grail.

Life

of

Brian

is.

Is

where

he

gets

mistaken

for

Jesus

his

whole

life.

Bud

That's

right.

That's

right,

that's

right,

that's

right.

That's

right.

Now,

Westworld.

So

I

haven't

seen

the

1973

version

of

Westworld.

Is

this

like

the

HBO

series

that

was

done.

Steve

It's

based

on.

Yeah,

that.

The

HBO

series

is

a

reboot

of

this

movie.

And

Yule

Brenner

plays

the.

The

robot

made

the

main

Robot

villain

of

the

theme

park

before

it

gained

sentience

and

stuff.

And

it's,

It's

a

fun

movie.

It's.

It's

really

neat

to

where

you

know,

the,

I

mean,

I

love

the

HBO

Season

1,

at

least

before

it

decided

to

jump

off

a

cliff.

But

the,

the.

It's.

It's

really

neat

in

just

that

two

hour

format

where

you

got

these,

these

cocky

guys

that

go

into

this

theme

park

and

then

like,

you

know,

the

holy

it's

real

moment.

Mike

Isn't

that

Michael

Crichton?

Steve

I

believe

so.

Tony

It

is.

Steve

He

did

write

that.

I

don't

know

if

he

who

directed

it,

but

I

think

he

did

write

it.

Yeah,

like

Tony

said,

now

a

Clockwork

Orange.

I

mean,

I

love

Stanley

Kubrick,

but

I

haven't

seen

this

since

probably

my

army

days.

So

you're

talking

a

good

25,

30

years

here.

Tony

I'm

not

a

big

fan.

Steve

I

just

remember

a

lot

of

chaos

and

not

making

much

sense.

I

don't

even.

I

couldn't

even

tell

you

a

plot.

Mike

I

think

I

know

a

majority

of

it

from

like

Simpsons

references.

That's

how

I

know

like

a

majority

of

it.

Like

I,

I

remember

seeing

it,

like.

Steve

Yeah.

Mike

Oh,

I

was

younger.

Like,

I

think

it

was

like

a

free

HBO

weekend

and

I

think

my

dad

watched

it

and

I

was

like,

this

seems

insane.

Like,

what

is

going

on

in

this

movie?

Steve

Yeah,

I

said,

what?

I

don't

even

remember

a

plot.

I

couldn't

tell

you.

Mike

I.

I

could

think

of

it,

but

it's

something

like

the

guy

stops

hanging

out

with

these

guys

or

something.

They

were

like,

they're

like

lunatics

and

they

just

destroy

everything

and

they

like

try

to

re.

Brainwash

him

or

something.

It's

like

nuts.

Like

it's.

It's

not

a

family

farm.

That's

all

not

on

Disney.

Plus,

what

are

you

anyway?

You

nice

girl

or

you

cunt?

Steve

I

don't

know.

Both.

You

can't

be

both.

Mike

I

mean,

that's

the

thing,

girls

gotta

decide

early

on.

Steve

You

gotta

decide

what

are

you

gonna

be?

Mike

A

nice

girl

or

a

cunt?

Steve

Okay,

let's

see.

Number

11

seeds.

We've

got

Saturday

Night

Fever,

1977,

Escape

from

Alcatraz,

1979,

Invasion

of

the

Body

Snatchers,

1978,

and

the

Muppet

Movie.

1979.

Bud

Wow.

Yeah,

yeah,

yeah,

Muppets.

Steve

I

watched

the

Muppet

Movie

today,

actually.

Interesting

rewatch.

It's

like

500

cameos

in

that

movie.

Mike

I

mean,

when

Jason

Siegel

redid

it,

they.

Steve

I

like

that.

Not

remake,

but

that

reboot

of

it

because

they.

There's

a

lot

of

callbacks

to

this

movie

in

it.

Mike

Yeah.

And

I

thought

he

brought

a

bunch

of

the

guys

in.

Well,

I

still

want

him

to

make

that

vampire

movie

from

forgetting

Sarah

Marshall.

Forgetting

Sarah

Marshall.

Right.

Is

that

the

movie?

Yeah,

it

is

the

van

like.

It's

the

Van.

Helsing

that.

It's

like

a

musical

of

Dracula.

If

they

ever

made

that

to

a

full

length

movie,

what

a

great.

Would

be

fantastic.

Steve

Have

you

guys

watched

Saturday

Night

Fever?

Tony

I've

never

seen

it.

Mike

Long

time

ago.

Bud

Long

time

ago.

Steve

Yeah,

I

rewatched

it

recently.

I

have

opinions,

but

I'll

also

save

it

for

the

battle.

It

was

definitely

interesting.

Tony

I've

never

watched

that

one

or

the

other

Dancing

one.

He's

in

Greece.

No,

I've

seen

Greece.

There's

another

dancing

one.

Steve

Was

it

Night

Fever

or

Staying

Alive?

Tony

Or

maybe

it's

not.

Mike

Oh,

it's

a

sequel

to

that.

Tony

Maybe.

I'm

thinking

of

Patrick

Swayze.

Mike

Well,

that

was

dancing.

Tony

Yeah,

that's

the

one

I'm

thinking

of.

I

haven't

seen

that

one.

Steve

Wasn't

expecting

everyone

in

Saturday

Night

Fever

to

be

jerks.

Like.

Like

there's.

There's

like

no.

No

one.

No

one's

likable

the

entire

movie.

Tony

Maybe

they.

Maybe

it's

based

in

Jersey.

Steve

Escape

from

Alcatraz

is

a

good

movie,

though.

I.

Our

dad

loved

that

one.

Used

to

watch

that

all

the

time.

Bud

Yep.

Mike

Hey,

boys.

Look

what

I

got

here.

Hey,

where

the

white

women

at?

Steve

All

right,

I'll

see.

We're

going

to

number

12

seeds.

And

there's

Greece

1978.

12.

Mike

Oh.

Whoever

the

five

is.

Wow.

Steve

And

we

have

Blazing

Saddles

19.

Mike

This

a

12.

Five

classic

upset.

Bud

Come

on.

Steve

Dawn

of

the

Dead

1978

and

Rocky

1976.

Tony

These

are

four

good

movies.

Steve

Yeah.

Almost

any

of

these,

especially

Blazing

Sals

and

Rocky

could

be

higher

depending

on

how

metrics

go.

Mike

This

is.

They're

the.

They're

the

Mid

American

conference

team

that

they

gave

no

respect

to

that

won

their

regular

and

had

the

palm

rating

to

sneak

in.

And

they're

going

to

cause

some

noise

like

George

Mason

or

something

like

that.

Steve

Yeah,

it's

all

fun

and

games.

So

you

get

Blazing

Saddles

versus

the

Godfather

and

then

you

got

to

like

hang

your

head

in

shame.

Which.

Whichever

one

you

choose.

Tony

My

only

problem

with

Rocky

is,

is

that

it's

rapey.

The

low

part.

Steve

It

is.

It

gets

a

little

awkward

in

the

middle.

Yes.

Mike

Yeah.

Racky

two

is

better.

Steve

I.

I

agree.

I

like

Rocky

three

out

of

all

of

them

the

best.

Mike

What?

You're

un

American.

Rocky

4

is

the

old

as

the

only

correct

answer

because

he

beats

up

a

Russian

man,

he

takes

down

communism

by

himself.

And

what,

Steve,

the

wall

went

down.

It

all

made

sense

for

one

reason,

Mr.

T.

Well,

Hulk

Hogan's

that

one,

too.

Steve

Yeah,

Hulk

as

a

scene.

But

you

can't

beat

Clubber

Lang.

He's

just

fantastic.

Mike

Plus,

I.

I

agree.

However,

Dolph,

though,

and

the

lines.

And,

like,

I

must

break

the

fact

that

they

had

to

put,

like,

Sylvester

Stallone

on

a

box

to

stand

him

next

to

Lundgren

to

make

him

not

look

so

much

shorter

than

him.

Steve

Isn't

that

dude,

like,

a

scientist

now,

Dolph?

Yeah.

Mike

I

don't

know.

I

just

saw

him

in

a

fanduel,

I

think.

Tony

Yeah,

you

see

the

commercial?

Steve

I'm

pretty

sure

he's

like

a.

Like

a

PhD

scientist,

though.

I

mean,

really.

Mike

Because

they

just

did

all

those,

like,

Creed

movies

and

he

was

in

them.

Tony

Is

that

the

one

with

where

he's

got

the

robot?

Steve

Yeah,

that's

four.

Paulie

and

the

robot.

Yeah.

Mike

And

that's

when.

When

Rocky

trains

with,

like,

no

expensive

equipment

in

Russia.

Well,

the

high

end

stuff.

And

then

he

gets

to

the

top

of

the

mountain

and

yells,

drago.

Oh,

classic.

Steve

Well,

I

mean.

And

that's.

That's

one

of

the

neat

things

about

the

whole

Rocky

series

is

actually

Paulie,

you

know,

he's.

He

ends

up

with

the

robot

in

four

all

alone.

Pathetic.

But

in

Rocky,

this

version,

the

76

original,

I

mean,

he's.

He's

an

asshole.

He's

a

force.

He's

a

jerk.

Controlling.

I

mean,

he's

a

major

part

of

the

story.

Mike

Yeah.

I

mean,

Rocky

really

kind

of

is.

Steve

Like

a

love

story.

Mike

I

mean,

the

first

one

is.

It's

like

they're.

It's

the

two

of

them

really

getting

together.

Yeah,

I

know

he's

a

boxer

and

all,

and

he's.

And

he

gets

his

chance

against.

Steve

It's

kind

of

a

love

trying

Apollo.

Mike

Yeah.

Steve

Because

you

got

like,

you

know,

Rocky,

Mickey,

Rocky

and

Adrian.

You

know,

it's.

It's

the.

That

weird

look.

Mike

Yeah.

Steve

Which

triangle

there.

Mike

Oh,

Burgess

Meredith.

What

a.

Tony

That

was.

Mickey

character

is

a

hell

of

a

performance.

Steve

Yeah,

he's

a

legend.

Tony

Yeah,

I've

heard

the

Creed

movies

are

decent.

I

just

haven't

watched

them.

Mike

I've

seen

the

first

two.

I

have

not

seen

the

one

with

the

guy

who

got

in

all

that.

Steve

Trouble

from

the

Marvel,

Jonathan

Major.

Mike

Yeah,

but

I

like

them.

I

thought

they

were

pretty

good.

Like,

they.

Especially

when

they

brought,

like,

Dolph

Lundgren's

character

back

with

his

kid

and

had

him

fight

him.

And

the

guy.

Whoever

plays

his

kid

is

a

Monster

compared

to.

Steve

Well,

Michael

B.

Jordan

plays

Apollo

Creed's

son,

isn't

he?

Mike

Yes.

Steve

I

saw

Rocky

Balboa,

that

movie,

but

I

didn't

see

the

Creed

ones,

which

I

liked.

Yeah,

I

like

Rocky.

Mike

Movies

are

good.

Yeah,

you'll

enjoy

them.

They're.

They're.

They

gotta

like

old

school

Rocky

feel.

And

Balboa's

in.

I

mean,

and

Stallone's

in

the

first

two

or

three

of

them.

Steve

I

like

Rocky

5

just

for

how

bad

it

is.

Mike

Oh,

God.

Tony

I

mean,

I

didn't

know

there

was

a

Rocky

5.

Steve

Tommy

the

Machine

Gun.

Mike

Yeah,

that's

only

grown

up

in

the

90s,

I

think

there's

only

a

handful

of

people

that

watch

that

one.

Steve

It

was

one

of

those,

like

Bud

mentioned

earlier,

the

hbo,

you

know,

in

a

round.

HBO

had

that

one

on

copyright,

so

they

played

it

all

the

time.

Tony

Shift

over

to

Greece.

If

you

were

just

talking

like

strictly

iconic

from

the

70s,

Greece

would

definitely

be

a

lot

higher.

Steve

Yeah,

but

you

want

to

talk

rapey,

though.

Tony

Yeah.

Steve

Not

to

mention

you've

got

38

year

olds

playing

17

year

olds.

I

mean,

there's

guys

with

almost

full

beards

in

that

opening

number.

Mike

See,

I

had

a

full

beard.

17.

Full

beard

at

12.

What

are

you

talking

about?

I

look

like

I

got

out

of

prison

in

my

eighth

grade

graduation.

Steve

I

do

plan

on

watching

dawn

of

the

Dead,

though,

before

we

do

this,

because

I've

seen

the

remake

of

this,

but

not

the

original.

Yeah,

I

hear

this

is

pretty

good

and

I

want

to

find

it

and

watch

it.

Tony

I

prefer

the

original.

Mike

That's

pretty

iconic,

though.

I

see

you

shiver

with

anticipation.

Steve

All

right,

let's

see.

This

is

12,

so

we're

going.

We're

heading

to

seed

13.

Willy

Wonka

and

the

Chocolate

Factory,

1971,

Shaft,

1971,

the

Warriors,

1979,

and

Rocky

Horror

Picture

Show

1975.

Mike

All

right,

interesting.

Bud

Okay.

Steve

We're

in

the

teens

now,

so.

Mike

Yeah,

it's

very

like

you're

starting

to

get,

like,

very.

Steve

You're

gonna

get

the

cult

movies

now.

Mike

Yeah,

kind

of

culty,

like

Rocky

Horror

and

Warriors.

Steve

I

have

never

finished

the

Warriors.

It's

not

good.

I

don't

know

why

it's

here.

It's

not

good.

I'm

sorry

for

the

warriors

fans

out

there,

but

we'll

see

what

it

goes

up

again.

Mike

I

don't

know

if

you

guys

watch

what

we

do.

In

the

Shadows,

the

TV

show.

They

kind

of

did

a

whole

episode

that

was

similar

to

the

warriors

in

this

season

with

like

the

vampires

and

stuff.

It

was

amazing.

They

had

vampires

from

that

show's

going

on

it

just

got

done.

It's

just

finished

after

a

sixth

season.

Steve

Okay.

Tony

And

that's

a

comedy.

Mike

Oh,

yeah.

Steve

It's.

Mike

It's

probably

one

of

the

funniest

TV

shows

I've

watched

in

the

last,

like,

five.

Steve

I

saw

the

movie.

I

haven't

watched

the

show.

Mike

Oh,

Steve,

the.

The

TV

show

is

better

than

the

movie.

Like,

if

you.

If

you

enjoyed

the

movie,

the

team's.

Steve

Got

Matt

Berry

in

it

right

from

the

IT

crowd.

Mike

Matt

Berry

is

unbelievable

in

it.

Like,

he's

so

good.

Tony

The

showrunner

is

the

guy

who

did

Thor

Ragnarok.

I

wanted.

Mike

Yeah.

Tony

His

name.

Because

I

couldn't.

Mike

Those.

Those

two

guys

are

in,

obviously

the

original

movie,

and

so

they're

the

showrunners

and.

But

they're

actually

in

the

first

season

a

little

bit.

There's

a

whole.

The

season

finale

of

season

one.

Steve

Well,

just

the

concept

I

enjoyed,

you

know,

just,

you

know,

vampires

today,

you

know,

in.

In,

like,

a

very

comedic

way

of.

Of

integrating

and

interacting

with

today.

Mike

Steve,

let

me

know

if

you

ever

watch

it.

Make

sure

you

text

me

about

it.

Steve

What

network

was

it

on?

Mike

It

was

on

fx,

so

it's

on.

The

season

finale

of

season

one

is

probably

one

of

the

best

season

finales

I've

ever

seen.

It's

especially

for,

like,

the

vampire

world

of,

like,

TV

and

movies.

You're.

You're

gonna

love

it.

It's

class.

It's

amazing

what

they

do.

Steve

Once

I

finish

Only

Murders

in

the

Building,

we'll

switch

over

to

that.

Mike

Oh,

that's

great,

Joe.

Steve

Let's

see

what

else

we

got.

I

mean,

Willy

Wonka,

though.

I

mean,

what

more

can

you

say

on

that

one?

Mike

Yes.

Steve

Part

of

everyone's

childhood

scared

the

crap

out

of

him.

The

tunnel.

Mike

I

never.

Bud

I

didn't

understand

why

everyone

was

in

bed.

That

didn't

make

any

sense

to

me.

Steve

It's

even

funnier

on

the

stage

show

because

it's

the

same.

Bud

Is

it?

Steve

Yeah.

Grandpa.

Grandpa

Joe.

The.

The

most

understated

villain

of

the

70s.

The

hell

was

he

doing

in

bed

for

45

years?

Tony

All

four

workers

comp.

Steve

It's

like,

oh,

you

gotta.

You

gotta

tick

in

the

candy

bar.

I

guess

I

can

walk

now.

What

the

hell,

Grandpa

Joe?

I.

I

can't

click

forward

on

this

slide

here

until

I

mentioned

Tim

Curry,

though,

out

of

the

Rocky

Horror

Picture

Show.

I

mean,

that.

That

movie

is

not

for

everyone.

It

is

an

acquired

taste.

Sure.

But

his

performance.

And

just

like

Tim

Curry's

performance

in

Everything

is

phenomenal.

Mike

Yeah.

Plus

you

get

meatloaf

and.

Tony

Yeah,

I

prefer

the

songs

over

the

movie.

Just.

I

like

the

numbers.

Steve

I.

I

do

actually

agree

with

that.

And.

And

they

actually

did

a

revival

in

Broadway

in

2000

of

it,

and

there's

some

really

good

voices

in

there,

and

I.

I

prefer

that

better

than

this

soundtrack.

It's.

It's

really

a

really

fascinating

time

capsule

to

watch.

Tony

Well,

Glee

did

a

whole

episode

where

they

just

did

the

songs,

and

they

were

better

versions,

in

my

opinion,

than

the

actual.

Mike

I

mean,

think

about

who

the

people

were

singing

in

here.

Like,

Susan

Sarandon

and,

like,

Tim

Curry's,

like,

not

the

best

singer

in

the

world.

Like,

Meatloaf's

a

professional,

like,

singer,

and

he

only

had

one

song.

So

I

can

see

that,

like,

sometimes

when

they

do

movies

of

plays,

the

singers

aren't

the

best.

It's

about

getting

the

actors

that

you

want

that

can

act

the

role.

I

mean,

granted,

like,

what

I've

heard

with

Wicked,

it's

what

I've

heard

of

Wicked.

Like,

the

voices

are

phenomenal.

Like,

that

I've

heard

compared

to,

like,

some

of

the

stage

shows.

But,

you

know,

that

doesn't

happen

every

time.

Like,

I

don't

think,

like,

they

try

to

get

well

with.

Steve

With

Wicked,

you

had

money

number

one.

Mike

Like.

Like

this

one

crows

in,

like,

Russell

Crowe's

in

Les

Miz.

Steve

Come

on.

Russell

Crowe

is.

Is.

He's.

He's

famously

one

of

the

most

miscast.

Sure.

But

he

still

did

fine,

right?

Mike

It

was

fine.

But

that's

lame,

Is,

man.

It's,

like,

one

of

the

most

iconic,

like,

plays.

Steve

Like,

it

irritated

me.

He

was.

Because

he

actually.

I

think

Russell

Crowe

has

his

own

band.

He

does

sing,

but

he

doesn't

sing

that

kind

of

music.

Mike

No.

Steve

Yeah.

That

was

a

shame.

But

I

still,

you

know,

it

was

fun.

And

then,

like,

Phantom

of

the

Opera,

you

had

a

Gerard

Butler

playing

the

Phantom.

You

know,

that

movie

that's.

That's

quite

controversial

in

the

theater

crowd.

That

particular

movie.

Mike

Yeah.

Oh,

I'm

sure

there's

a

lot

of

stuff

that

they

redo.

You're

like,

oh,

right.

Steve

I

want

to

say

Tim

Curry

played

Frank

N.

Furter

on

Broadway,

but

don't.

Don't

quote

me

on

that.

Or

the

West

End.

I

don't

know

either.

Or.

But

I

think

he

did

the.

I'm

gonna

have

all

kinds

of

theater

nerds

after

me

if

I.

If

I

misspeak

on

that

one.

But

the.

Because

he.

He

was

The.

He

did.

He

was

King

Arthur

in

the

first

run

of

Spamalot

on

Broadway.

Tim

Curry

was.

Mike

And

he

was

it.

He

hates

these

cans.

Stay

away

from

the

cans.

Steve

Let's

see,

the

number

14s

are

Smokey

and

the

Bandit,

1977.

Disney's

Robin

Hood,

1973,

the

Jerk,

1979,

and

the

Omen,

1976.

That's

a

wide

variety.

There

it

is.

Bud

Wow.

Mike

Surprised

that

Robin

Hood

is

on

there.

Tony

Is

this

the

only

animation?

Steve

Yes.

Is

Disney's

Robin

Hood,

the.

The

Fox

version.

Tony

But

have

we

had

an

animation

so

far?

Steve

That's

the

only

one

so

far.

Bud

I

watched

that

movie

all

the

time

as

a

kid.

Mike

Yeah.

My

brother

watched

it

legitimately,

like,

probably

four

times

a

day

when

we

were

kids.

Steve

It's

still

my

favorite

Disney

movie.

Mike

I'm

just.

I'm.

I'm

surprised

because

it's

not,

like,

super

well

known.

I.

I

don't

think,

like,

when

you

think

about

it,

like,

do

you.

Do

you

think

they're

gonna

remake

that

one

with,

like.

Like,

CGI

animals?

Steve

It

is

weird

how

beloved

that

one

is.

I

mean,

you've

got

Roger

Miller

as

the.

The

rooster

singing

those

wonderful

songs

throughout

the

whole.

Mike

Oh,

no,

it's

a

great

movie.

I

just.

I'm

just

surprised.

Steve

It's.

It's.

It's.

It's

Beloved

out

there

has

a

huge,

you

know,

Metacritic

score

and

stuff.

I

mean,

it's.

That.

I

didn't

put

that

there.

I

wish

I

would

have.

I

mean,

I

would

have

put

it

higher.

Not

quite

a

top

seed,

but

I

do

love

that

movie.

Mike

Yeah.

No,

I.

I'm

just

more

surprised

because

I

always

thought

it

was

just

something

my

brother

watched,

like,

constantly,

so.

And

smoking

the

Bandit.

I

just

listened

to

the

soundtrack

the

other

day.

Jerry

Reed

alone,

thinking

Eastbound

and

Down

is

worth

the

price

of

admission.

And

I

don't

know

if

you

guys

have

ever

seen

this.

The

Family

Guy,

when

Dewey

says

something

to,

like,

Burt

Reynolds,

like,

he's

in

the

Trans

Am,

and

he

goes,

why

don't

you

go

tap

that

sweet.

That

Sally

Field

ass?

Like,

kind

of

like

making

fun

of

him.

Steve

Thanks

for

the

ride,

Bandit.

Good

luck

tapping

some

of

that

hot.

Bud

Hot

Sally

Field

tail.

Steve

Knock

it

off.

I

don't

like

it

any

more

than

you

do.

Mike

Because

that's,

like,

the

only

movie

I

think

Sally

Field's,

like,

ever

like,

a

sex

symbol.

Like,

really.

Steve

The

Flying

Nun

Force.

Mike

Gump.

You

know,

at

the

beginning,

she

got

him

into.

She

got

him

into

school.

Got

him

into

school.

Tony

What

does

he

say?

Boy,

your

mother

sure

cares

about

your

education.

Mike

Yeah.

And

the

Jerk.

I

love

the.

The

first

line

of

that

movie

alone

is

iconic.

Iconic.

Bud

Yep.

Steve

No

one

here

wants

to

say

Steve.

Mike

Had

to

say

it.

Steve

So

I.

I

love

that

movie

in

the.

And

with

Bernadette

Peters

in

there,

too.

But

the.

Where

they're

shooting

the

damn

cans

around

him.

These

cans

are

leaking.

Tony

So

I

was

probably

10

or

11

when.

What

was

that?

That

vid.

That

board

game

with

the.

The

movies.

You

put

the

dvd,

Seen

it?

Yeah,

seen

it.

And

that.

I

had

that

one.

That

scene

with

the

cans

is

where

I

first

ever

heard

of

that

movie.

Steve

Oh,

yeah,

we

used

to

play

the

hell

out

of

that

game.

I

forgot

about

that.

The

Omen

got

a

remake

in

the

past

10,

15

years

too,

didn't

it?

Yeah,

I

remember

the

original

Omen

here

being

extremely

creepy.

Based

on

the

kid,

though.

I

mean,

I

got

Gregory

Peck

in

there.

Mike

That

guy

was.

That

kid

was

creepy.

Steve

Yeah,

that

kid

just

had

that

look.

Mike

You

got

me,

didn't

you?

Want

to

kill

me?

Postman

off.

Come

on.

Steve

All

right,

let's

move

to

the

15

seeds.

We

have

Mean

Streets,

1973,

the

original

Wicker

Man,

1973,

Quadrophenia,

1979,

and

all

that

Jazz,

1976.

Mike

Quadrophenia

is

only

in

there

because

you

shoehorned

it

in.

Don't

even

tell

me

that

there's

no

other

reason

why

it's

in.

Steve

It

has

the

scores,

man.

Mike

From

who?

Steve

From

the

Internet.

The

Internet

doesn't

lie.

Mike

I

drank

a

lot

and

watched

that

movie

and

couldn't

believe

that

was

an

actual

thing

that

was

produced

and

made.

I

think

you

just

shoved

that

in.

I

think

that's.

That's

a.

That's

a.

That's

a

shove

in

from

like

the

CBS

executives

at.

For

the

tournament.

Steve

I

will

say

that

you

know

the

way.

And

I'm

doing

the

same

for

the

80s.

If

we

did

it

on

cinema

decon,

it's

at

least

in

the

original

list.

And

if

the

score

was

warrant

it

to

be

in

the

top

64,

so

be

it.

Mike

Yeah,

I

didn't

give

you.

Just

seeing

that.

I'm

like,

you

gotta

be

kidding

me.

I

had

a

feeling

it

was

in

here,

Steve.

Steve

I

enjoyed

it.

And

my

conversation

with

Luke

about

it

was.

Was

really

fun,

you

know,

but.

And

then

listening

to

that

guy

talk

in

that

crazy,

drunken

British

accent,

man,

it's.

It's

nuts

riding

the

scooter.

And

you

got

Sting.

Stings

in

there.

Mike

Yeah,

that

alone.

Steve

I

started

watching

the.

I've

seen

the

Nicholas

Cage

version

of

the

Wicker

man,

but

I

had

never

seen

the

original,

so

I

started

watching

original.

I

started

watching

the

original.

I

got

excited

when

I

saw

Christopher

Lee

in

the

credits.

I'm

like,

oh,

hell

yeah,

this

is

gonna

be

great.

And

then

it

got

super

weird

and

it

got

super

nudity.

And

I

was

like,

okay,

I

gotta

stop

this

because

there's

kids

in

the

house

and

I

Haven't

finished

it

yet.

It

got

super

weird

real

quick,

so

I'm.

Haven't

finished

that

one

yet.

Mean

Streets

is

Martin

Scorsese,

but

I

have

not

seen

that.

Mike

That's

like

one

of

his

first

ones.

Steve

Yeah,

when

it

was

first.

Tony

This

is

the

first

time

I

haven't

seen

any

of

the

Four.

Wicker

man

kind

of

looks

like

that,

that

movie

that

just

came

out

mid

summer.

Steve

I'll

say

there's.

I'll

say

they're

similar.

Tony

That

was

a

good

movie.

Steve

Have

you

seen

the

Nicholas

Cage

version?

Tony

No.

No.

Steve

Not

the

bees.

Not

the

bees.

All

that

jazz

is

interesting

to

say

the

least.

It's

got

the

guy

from

Jaws,

Robert

Quinn,

maybe

the

main.

The

Sheriff

from

Jaws

is

in

it

and

he

plays

a

Broadway

director

and

he

gets

all,

you

know,

his

life

and

his

women

and

his

stress.

It's

fine.

Mike

I

just.

I've

always

just

used

that,

like,

quote,

like,

oh,

you

know,

and

all

that

jazz.

Steve

It's

a

Bob

Fosse

thing.

Rory

Schneider,

that's

his

name.

I

don't

know.

Bedknobs

and

Broomsticks.

Should

have

made

it.

Could

have

been.

Could

have

filled

that

slot.

Still

bitter

about

Bedknobs

and

Broomsticks

not

making

the

top.

Tony

You

do

that,

you

go

to

the.

Steve

Box,

you

know,

two

minutes

by

yourself.

Tony

And

you

feel

shame,

you

know,

and.

Mike

Then

you

get

free.

Steve

And

the

winners

of

our

play

in

round,

which

everyone

got

to

vote

on.

We

had

a

lot

of

fan

votes

on

this,

too.

Number

16

seeds

are

Slap

Shot,

1977,

Cheech

and

Chong's

up

in

Smoke,

1978,

the

Outlaw,

Josie

Wales,

1976,

and

Last

Tango

in

Paris,

1973.

Three

great

movies

and

one

I've

never

seen.

Mike

So,

from

the

COVID

alone

from

Last

Tango

in

Paris,

did

we

just

have

to

have,

like

a

Deep

Throat

type

thing

here

since

that's

when

stuff.

Stuff

got

hot

and

heavy

back

in

the

day

or

what?

Steve

Marlon

Brando

banging

through,

you

know,

Paris.

I

don't

know.

I.

I

haven't

seen

it.

Mike

Yeah,

I

just

see

that.

Steve

I'm

not

gonna

watch

it.

There's

no

way

that

this,

that

last

tangle

in

Paris

has

any

chance

of

beating

any

of

those

number

16

or

number

one

seeds.

But

I

do

enjoy

the

other

three

movies.

Cheech

and

Chong's

up

in

Smoke

beat

Tommy.

I'm

a

little

bummed

about

that.

Bud

Really.

Wow.

Mike

You

should

have

put.

You

put

a

Tommy

over

Quadravinia.

Steve

Yeah,

I

mean,

see,

I

tried

to

keep

everything

fair

and

slapshot

and

Josie

Wales

won,

like,

with

80

of

the

vote.

I

mean,

it

was

no

contest.

But

the

Other

ones

were

very

close.

Mike

Yeah,

like,

like

I

could

sound.

Steve

Yeah,

they

were.

They

were

both

very

close.

I

can't

remember

what

Last

Tango

in

Paris

Beat,

though.

Tony

Give

me

an

excuse

to

watch

Slapshot

for

the

first

time.

Bud

Slapshot's

great

movie.

It

is

such

a

good

movie.

Mike

They

brought

their

toys.

Steve

Last

Tango

and

Paris

Beat.

Nashville.

Mike

The

TV

show?

Steve

No,

the

Oscar

winning

town.

Mike

That

city

itself

there.

Steve

There's

a.

An

on

one

of

those

Robert

Altman

style

ensemble

movies

like

mash,

and

it's

all

about

Nashville

and

there's

a

political

convention

and

you've

got

all

kinds

of

mechanisms

going

around

and

you've

got,

you

got

country

singers,

you

got

politicians,

you

got

local

people,

you

got

just

all

kinds

of

things

happening

and,

you

know,

it

all

comes

together

in

the

end.

But

it

won

a

couple

Oscars,

maybe

even

Best

Picture,

but

don't

quote

me

on

that.

It's

faded.

I

think

there's

a

lot

of

stuff

that

didn't

age

well.

I

was

gonna

watch

it,

but

it

wasn't

for

free,

so

I

moved

on.

Bud

So

with

Josie

Wales,

is

this,

this,

this

is

the

same

movie

that

was

being

watched

in

Back

to

the

future

2?

Steve

I

believe

so,

yeah.

Bud

When

Biff

was

in

the.

Steve

Where

was

that?

Bud

Jacuzzi

or

whatever

or

that

might

have.

Steve

Been

Fistful

of

Dollars.

Bud

Oh,

yeah,

it

might

have

been

in

that

one

too.

Yeah.

Steve

So

those

are

our

seeds.

And

now

we're

going

to

go

through

the,

the

matchups

here

in

the

north

bracket.

We've

got

Alien

versus

Slap

Shot.

Bud

Really?

Really?

Steve

Number

8,

Bad

News

Bears

versus

number

9,

Serpico.

Number

5,

Monty

Python.

The

Holy

Grail

versus

number

12,

Greece.

Number

4,

Deer

Hunter

versus

number

13,

Willy

Wonka

and

the

Chocolate

Factory.

Number

6,

Dog

Day

Afternoon

versus

number

11,

Saturday

Night

Fever.

Number

3,

The

Sting

versus

number

14,

Smokey

and

the

Bandit.

Number

7,

Dirty

Harry

versus

Westworld.

Number

10.

And

finally

the

number

2,

French

Connection

versus

15

Mean

Streets.

Mike

I'll

have

to

see

some

of

these

movies

for

the

first

time

to

like,

actually.

Now

vote

for

the.

The

ones

that

I've

always

really

liked

because

I've

never

seen

the

Sting

and

I

love

smoking

the

Bandit.

Steve

Oh,

this

thing

is

fantastic.

And

it's

on

Netflix

right

now.

Mike

I've

never

seen

the

French

Connection.

I

know.

I.

These

are

movies

I

probably

should

have

seen

or

maybe

have

seen.

I

just

don't

remember

them.

I

mean,

I

could

seriously

vote

for

Willy

Wonka

over

Deer

Hunter.

Like

that

wouldn't

make

me

feel

bad.

Steve

There's,

there's

definitely

room

for

some,

some

spoilers

here.

Mike

And

I'm

not.

And

I'll

be

honest

with

you,

Steve.

I

am

not

like

a

big

alien

guy.

St.

I

mean,

this

could

be

like

Virginia

getting

beat

in

the

first

round.

Steve

For

me,

anything

is

possible.

But

like

we

mentioned

earlier,

both

Greece

and

Monty

Python

having,

you

know,

that

those

iconic

one

liners

and

you

know,

cultural

relevance,

I

mean,

that's,

you

know,

depending

on

what

your

personal

criteria

is

to

vote,

things

could

go

sideways

pretty

quick.

Mike

I

mean,

yeah,

like,

I've

probably

seen

Greece

more,

but

I

don't

think

I

could

like

a

right

mind

vote

Grease

over

Monty

Python.

That's

just

how

I

feel

about

it.

Steve

But

let's

check

out

the,

the

south

bracket

probably

next

here.

Let's

see.

So

we've

got

the

godfather

number

one

versus

up

in

smoke,

16.

Mike

Oh,

this

is

the

16

over

one.

Steve

We've

got

number

eight,

the

exorcist

versus

number

nine,

young

Frankenstein.

That

is

going

to

be

tough.

Bud

That's

tough.

Yeah.

Steve

Number

five,

Patton

versus

number

12,

dawn

of

the

Dead,

number

four,

Apocalypse

now

versus

number

13,

shaft

number

six,

Network

versus

Escape

from

Alcatraz.

Number

11,

number

three,

Cabaret

versus

Dizzy's

Robin

Hood.

Number

14.

Tony

There's

your

upset.

Steve

I

don't

know,

I

mean,

I'm,

I,

I

do

enjoy

cabaret.

Mike

So

I'm

going

with

you,

Tony,

on

this

one.

We

can

do

it.

Steve

We'll

see.

We'll

see.

But

now

we've

got

number

seven,

Chinatown

versus

number

ten,

Life

of

Brian.

That's

just

mean

that,

that's

cruel.

Number

two,

Close

Encounters

of

the

Third

Kind

versus

number

15,

the

Wicker

Man.

That,

that

Chinatown

versus

Life

of

Brian.

I'm

gonna

debate

up

until

a

moment

of

voting

on

that

one.

Well,

we'll

have

to.

That

one

will

be

debated

along

with

Exorcisted

Young

Frankenstein.

There's

some

good

matchups

in

here.

Mike

That

eight,

nine

is

a

tough

one.

That's

a

tough

one

because

that's

like

two

different

type

of

movies.

Steve

Yep.

Mike

You

know,

it's

not

like

it's.

Steve

I

mean,

they're

both

horror

movies,

right?

Mike

Yeah,

well,

I

mean,

I

guess

technically,

yeah.

Val

Bruka.

Yeah,

that's

tough.

Steve

All

right,

let's

see.

The

east

bracket

is

The

Godfather

Part

2

versus

number

16,

The

Outlaw

Josie

Wales.

Number

8,

Kerry

versus

number

9,

Kramer

and

Kramer.

5,

The

Texas

Chainsaw

Massacre

versus

number

12,

Blazing

Saddles.

4,

Star

wars

versus

13,

The

Warriors

6,

all

the

President's

Men

versus

number

11,

Invasion

of

the

Body

Snatchers.

3

Jaws

versus

14,

The

Jerk,

number

7,

Annie

hall

versus

number

10,

A

Clockwork

Orange.

Number

2,

Mad

Max

versus

number

15,

Quadrophenia.

Mike

That

12

over

5

is

the

easiest

12

over

5

of

all

time.

Steve

There's

a

lot

of

Texas

Chainsaw.

Mike

I'm

sorry.

Texas

Chainsaw

massacre,

especially

the

70s

version

one

just

looks

like,

like

five

guys

from

a

film

class

put

it

together.

Tony

I

disagree.

I've

watched

it

this

year

during

Halloween.

I

thought

it

was

pretty

good.

Mike

It

looks

like

that

Geico

commercial.

Steve

Oh,

wait,

wait,

wait,

wait.

With

like,

the.

Let's.

Let's

hide

in

the

shed

full

of

chainsaws.

Mike

And

that413,

if

that's

not

unanimous,

I

don't

know.

Steve

Star

wars

over

the

Warriors.

Mike

There's

no

way.

There's

some

just

gonna

be

like,

good

Warriors.

Pretty

good

movie,

though.

Probably

vote

for

that

one

over

Star

Wars.

Like,

shut

up.

Steve

Jamal

could

be

a

wild

card

here.

He

could

come

in

on.

On

the

voting

episode

and

be

like,

warriors

all

around.

Mike

Get

out

of

town.

Bud

He's

probably

a

Texas

Chainsaw

Massacre

fan

too.

Steve

I.

I

think

that

the

6

and

11

could

be,

you

know,

an

interesting

discussion.

And

also

the

3

and

14,

you

know,

jaws

versus

the

jerk

both

have

a

lot

of

merit

there,

depending

on

how

you're

feeling

that

day.

And

I'll.

I'll

be

honest.

Mad

Max

versus

Quadrophenia.

Bud

That's

easy.

Steve

Yeah,

I

know.

Quadrophenia

all

day.

Mike

Number

one.

That

was

the

longest

hour

and

a

half

of

my

life.

Tony

So

you're

saying

I

can

skip

that

one?

Steve

No,

you've

got

watch

Quadrophenia.

Mike

It

almost.

It

almost

made

me

hate

my.

One

of

my

favorite

albums

of

all

time.

Like,

it

legit.

I

was

like,

I

hate.

Tony

Pretty

good

album

right

now.

Mike

No,

it's.

It's

one

of

the

best

album.

It's

a

great

album,

but

I

was

like,

P

Town.

I

hate

Pete

Townsend.

Now,

like,

halfway

through

it,

I'm

like,

I

wish

she

never

wrote

that.

I

wish

you

never

wrote

that

album.

I

was

getting

so

pissed.

Steve

Ah,

what

if

it

was

Mad

Max

versus

Tommy?

Mike

I.

I

would

vote

for

Tommy.

I

like

Tommy.

Tommy's

a

better

move

than

Quadraphini.

Steve

I

agree.

And.

And

I.

But

I

did

enjoy

Quadrophenia

for

the

only.

Probably

because

I

had

just

dove

deep

into

that,

you

know,

double

album,

so

that

helped

it.

Mike

Elton

John's

version

and

Tina

Turner's

version

alone

make

that

a

better

well

to.

Steve

Eric

Clapton

and

as

well.

I

mean,

I.

I

enjoy

his

eyesight

to

the

blind,

but,

you

know.

All

right,

let's.

We

got.

We

got

one

more

left

here.

West

bracket

is

number

one,

Taxi

Driver

versus

number

16,

Last

Tango

in

Paris.

Number

eight,

Eraserhead

versus

number

nine,

Superman

the

Movie.

Number

five,

Halloween

versus

number

12,

Rocky.

Interesting.

Number

four,

Deliverance

versus

number

13,

Rocky

Horror

Picture

Show.

Number

six,

One

Flew

over

the

Cuckoo's

Nest.

Versus

number

11,

the

Muppet

Movie.

Number

three,

MASH,

versus

number

14,

the

Omen.

Number

seven,

Assault

on

Precinct

13

versus

number

10,

Animal

House.

And

number

two

ranked

the

Enter

the

Dragon

versus

15.

All

that

Jazz

at

5:12.

Mike

It's.

That's

like

iconic

franchises

going

against

each

other.

Steve

Yeah,

Halloween

versus

Rocky.

That's

gonna

be

a

fun

one.

Tony

I

think

this

is

the

weakest

bracket.

Mike

I

think

I'd

have

to

go

10

over

7

on

this

one,

though,

having

never

seen

Assault

on

Precinct.

Steve

There's

the

possibility

of

some

upsets

in

a

lot

here.

Bud

I.

I

love

the

413

here.

The

deliverance,

Rocky

Horror

Picture

Show.

Which

one

is

the

worst

one?

Mike

Is

this

supposed

to

be,

like,

now?

Like,

I'm

like,

great

Kellogg,

and

I'm

supposed

to

tell

you

who

I

think

is

going

to

win

all

this.

Is

that

how

we're

going

to

do

that

now?

Steve

Well,

that

is.

The

next

question

is,

you

know,

I

was

going

to

ask,

you

know,

you

know,

who

you

guys

think

will

be

some

predictions

or

heavy

favorites,

possible

sleepers,

crazy

matchups.

You

know,

what's.

What

are

your

thoughts

about

this

whole

thing?

Mike

It's

tough

now.

I

got

to

see

the

bracket,

and.

Steve

I'm

bringing

up

the

bracket.

I'm

bringing

up

the

bracket.

Give

me

a

second.

Mike

I

don't

want

to

sound

like

a.

That

that

last

bracket

was

kind

of

the

weakest

one.

Tony

Yes.

Mike

If

I

was.

If

I

was

voting,

I

would

agree.

If

I

was

voting

like,

like

they

do

on

the

selection

Sunday,

I'm

gonna

bring

up

the.

Steve

The

challenge

website

for

you

guys

to

see.

So

I

have

all

of

this

live

already

on

the

challenge

website,

where

anyone

listening

can

go

in

and

put

their.

Their

own

predictions

on

there.

Mike

Oh,

that's

beauty.

That's

beautiful.

Steve

Yeah.

So

it's.

Yeah.

To

scroll

down

real

quick.

I've

got

say

the

whole

thing

in

here

and

it

all,

and

I'll

progress

this

as

we

vote.

Mike

And

nothing

pretty

than

a

good

bracket.

The

NCAA

tournament

is

like,

my

favorite

things.

So

I

love

and

I

love.

I

love

brackets,

bracket

style.

Anything

makes

me

happy.

Steve

It

adds

a

variable

of

chaos

that

you

can't

control

at

all.

I

mean,

you

know,

like,

based

off

this,

you

know,

we

literally

could

have

Alien

versus

Monty

Python

and

the

Holy

Grail.

I

mean,

that's

gonna

suck.

Saturday

Night

Fever

maybe

versus

Westworld.

Mike

I'll

tell

you

what,

if

Westworld

gets

past

Dirty

Harry,

I

would

be

pretty

surprised.

Bud

Ooh.

I

mean,

we

could

also

See

what?

Godfather

and

Godfather

2

together.

Mike

Are

they

on

the

same

side?

Steve

I

don't

think

so.

Mike

No,

it

looks

like.

Okay,

they're

on

the

other

side.

Steve

No,

so.

So

that

championship

could

be

Godfather

versus

Godfather,

too,

but

I

don't

think

it

will

be.

Mike

Yeah,

dude,

I'm

confused,

though.

I'm

not

seeing

the

third

Godfather

anyway.

Steve

Well,

that's

because

it

was

in

the

80s,

you

know,

that.

That's.

That's

going

to

win

the

80s.

Mike

Oh,

that's

going

to

be

in

the

80s

bracket

for

sure.

Right?

Steve

Yeah,

yeah,

I'm

sure

it'll

be

one

of

the

top

seeds.

Right.

Mike

The

only

thing

it

should

be

is

if

you

could

just

have

one

line

from

it

and

that's

it.

Just

when

I

thought

I

was

out,

they

pull

me

back

in.

That's

it.

That's

the

only

line

from

the

entire

movie

that

you

could

use

because

it's

like

a

fantastic

line

for

anything.

But

no,

I

never

deserved.

God,

the

whole

inbreed.

The

whole

thing

with

the

cousin.

What

the

hell

is

going

on?

Steve

It

is

weird.

It's.

Mike

It's

so

weird.

Steve

Yeah.

Yeah,

it

won.

Poor

Sofia

Coppola.

Great

director

in

her

own

right,

but

she

was

horribly

miscast

as,

you

know,

that

daughter.

Mike

Yeah,

she

was

not.

Did

not

get

a

great

job.

And

Pacino,

that

was.

That's

not

just

that

scene

in

the

kitchen.

That's

it.

That's

all

you

need

it

for.

Steve

Like,

you

could

see

here,

like,

you

might

have

Rocky

versus.

Mike

Yeah,

Rocky

versus

Rocky

Horror

Picture

Show.

Yes.

Steve

There

you

go.

Jaws

versus

Mad

Max.

I

wouldn't

mind

having

that

conversation.

Mike

Like,

you

could

see,

like,

somebody

like

Rocky

coming

out

of

that.

That

lower

bracket.

Steve

Dude.

You

might

have

blazing

saddles

versus

Godfather

part

two.

Mike

Yeah,

but

that's

not

until

the

sweet

16,

so.

Steve

Correct.

Yeah,

I'm

saying.

I'm

just

trying

to.

Mike

Don't

get

jumpy.

Steve

I'm.

I'm

making

my

own

mental

predictions

here

of.

Of

conversations

in

my

mind

that

would

be

entirely

difficult.

Mike

That,

for

me,

Steve,

though,

like,

I

mean,

like,

Blazing

Sales

Legit

is

like,

top

five

movie

for

me.

But

Godfather

2

is

also

a

top

five

movie.

Steve

Exactly,

exactly.

Mike

So

to

me,

but

like,

Godfather

2

is

so

good.

Like,

it's

De

Niro

at

peak

and

Pacino

at

peak.

And

the

storytelling,

that.

That's

a

whole

other.

That's

a

whole

other

thing.

But

I

mean,

seriously,

if

you

go

see.

If

you

go

down

to

that

lower

bracket,

I

mean,

you

could

see

a

lower

seed

coming

out

of

here

because,

like,

Taxi

Drivers,

a

fine

movie,

but

if

you

get

a

bunch

of

people

that

are

kind

of

like,

ah,

whatever,

it's

fine.

And

then

somebody's

got

like,

because.

Safe.

Rocky

gets

past

Halloween.

Rocky.

That's

an

Easy

Sweet

16

for

Rocky

then.

Steve

Well,

but

also,

I

mean,

Enter

the.

Mike

Dragon

and

Drake,

it's

like,

it's

a

fine

movie,

but

it's

like

a

martial

arts

movie.

Steve

It

is

great.

And

if

you're,

but

if

you're

not

a

big

Bruce

Lee

martial

arts

fan,

you

might

have

seen

it

or

maybe

saw

it

once

and

then,

you

know,

gone.

Whereas

then

you've

got,

you

got

Animal

House

mash,

One

Flew

over

the

Cuckoo's

Nest,

so

many

other

ones

that

are

prime

to

just

step

right

over

it.

Mike

Right?

You

could,

you

could

have

like

an,

an

Animal

House,

Rocky

Elite

Eight

going

to

the

champ

to

the

Final

Four.

I

mean,

it's

not

possible.

You

know,

you

never

know,

but

it's.

Steve

It'S

entirely

possible

because

you,

you.

The

first

round,

I

mean,

like,

like

Rocky

versus

Halloween,

you're.

You're

pitting

the

two

against

each

other.

So

you

don't

know

what

that

next,

what

that

winner

is

going

to

be

pitted

against.

And

it's

an

entirely

different

conversation.

Mike

Yeah,

I

mean,

that's,

I

think

that's

your.

That's

kind

of

the

weakest

bracket,

but

that's

going

to

be

probably

the

most

interesting

upsets.

And

of

course,

when

they

always

say

that

on

TV

for

the

tournament,

that

means

it

goes

chalk.

Steve

I

think

the,

the

most

interesting

bracket

for

me

is

going

to

be

here.

I

think

this

is

the

east,

mainly

because

of

Chinatown

and

Monty

Python's

Life

of

Brian.

I

think

that's

going

to

be

a

difficult

one

in

my

head.

And

the

Exorcist

and

Young

Frankenstein.

I

mean,

those,

those

middle

seeds

are

always

tough,

right.

Mike

I

think

you

could

see

that

7,

10

going

to

the

Sweet

16,

just

especially

if

you

don't.

If

you

got

a

lot

of

people

that

aren't

really

into

close

encounters.

I'm

not

saying

that

the

Wicker

man

can't

win,

but

I'm

saying

it

well.

Steve

The.

In

a

lot

of

these

old

movies,

they

don't.

They.

They

might

be

iconic

and

they

were

iconic

at

their

time,

but

they

may

not

have

been,

you

know,

been

able

to

hold

up

in

the

mainstay

this

whole

time.

Yeah,

you

might

go

watch

the

Sting

this

weekend

and

it

might

change

your

life.

Tony

Well,

that's

what

I'm

gonna

do.

There's

a

lot

on

here

that

I

haven't

watched.

Mike

This.

Things

with

the

big,

like

the

sweet

car

chase,

right?

Steve

It's.

It's

Robert

Redford

and

Paul

Newman

doing

a.

It's

a

con

man

grift

movie.

Mike

But

isn't

there,

like

a.

Or

am

I

thinking

French

connections

along

with,

like,

the

big

car

chase?

Steve

That's

French

Connection.

Mike

Okay.

Steve

Yeah.

The.

The

Sting

is

one

that

is.

You

got

to

watch

it

multiple

times

because,

you

know,

kind

of

like

Ocean's

Eleven.

You

know,

once

you

know

the

end,

you're

like,

oh,

oh,

now

I

gotta

go

watch

it

again.

I

got.

And

you'll

start

catching

some

of

the

things

that

were

so

subtly

done

before

that

that

make

it

enjoyable

on

the

second

time

around.

Mike

All

right,

so

are

you

sending

this?

No.

Are

you

gonna

send

a

link

to

look

at

it?

Steve

Yeah.

And.

And

once

the

episode

goes

out

to

anyone,

listen,

this.

This

bracket

will

be

there,

and

that's

on,

say,

Chow

Loans.

C

H

a

l

l

O-N-G-E.com.

you

can

actually

go

in

here

and.

And

you

can

make

your

own

bracket

based

off

ours

and

put

your

predictions

in

there

and

see

how

it

plays

out,

just

like

you

do

for

March

Madness.

Mike

All

right.

Steve

And.

Mike

Cool.

Steve

Yeah,

this

is

gonna

be

fun.

Tony

Was

Cannonball

Run

not

in

the

70s?

Steve

It

was

not

80s.

Mike

That

was,

like,

super

early

80s.

Steve

Yeah.

It's

early

80s.

Bud

Yeah.

Steve

Trying

to

cash

in

on

that

Smokey

and

the

Bandit.

Bud

Love

Bandit,

yeah.

Mike

They

had

to

get

Don

DeLuise

in

there

so

they

could

just

laugh

like

that.

Was

that.

Is

that

SNL

skit

with

Farley?

Is

Dom

DeLuise.

He's

just.

They're

laughing

through,

like,

the

background,

and

he's

just

peeing

himself.

Steve

I

don't

remember

that

one

at

all.

Mike

And,

like,

Norm

MacDonald

plays

Burt

Reynolds,

and

it's

like

behind

the

scenes

of

Cannonball

Run,

and

they're

just

like,

I.

Steve

You

know,

I

think

I

do.

Bud

Yeah,

yeah,

I

remember

that.

Steve

I

do

remember

that

now.

Yeah.

Mike

And

he's

just.

Because,

you

know,

Farley's

got

that,

like

that

real

raspy

laugh,

and

then

he's

just.

All

of

a

sudden,

it

looks

like

he's

peeing

his

pants.

Steve

Say,

I

watched

the

Muppet

movie

today

for

the

first

time

in

forever,

and

Dom

deluise

meets

Kermit

in

the

swamp

in

a

boat.

I

don't

know

if

y'all

remember

that,

but

it's

not

good.

It's.

It's

like,

you

know,

straight

childhood

nostalgia,

you

know,

into

your

veins.

But

it's

not

good

at

all.

Dom

DeLuise's

acting

in.

In

that

particular

scene,

and

it's

just.

It's.

It

was

their

first

movie.

It's

no

Muppet

Christmas

Carol.

I'll

say.

It's

not.

It's

not

Michael

Caine

going

all

Charles

Dickens

on

everyone

in

full

force

at

by

any

means.

Tony

Or

Treasure

Island.

Steve

Yeah.

Or

Tim

Curry

and

Treasure

Island.

Another

perfect

example

of

they

got

better.

I'll

say.

But

go

ahead

and

finish

up

here,

guys.

I

appreciate

your

time

and

this

is

gonna

be

a

lot

of

fun.

Go

watch

those

movies

if

you

can.

And

we

are

gonna

come

back

and

do

some

voting.

Oh,

yeah,

we,

when

we

come

back,

we'll

just,

we'll

bring

up

the

list

and

we'll

go,

you

know,

each

round,

each

matchup,

and

we'll,

we'll

kind

of

plead

our

case

and

then

we'll,

we'll

take

a

vote

of

5.

Hopefully

Jamal

will

be

here

for

that

one

and

we

won't

need

to

have

any

tiebreakers.

Mike

I

guess

we

do

need

that

fifth

person.

Bud

Yes.

Steve

Thank

you,

everyone,

for

listening.

And

please

seek

us

out

at

the

socials

on

the

socials

to

give

us

your

thoughts.

You

can

also

see

the

bracket

over@chatlonge.com

and

put

your

own

predictions

on

there.

The

link

will

be

in

the

description.

Join

us

next

time

as

we

start

round

one

and

we'll

get

through

as

many

as

we

can.

So

we'll

see

you

next

time

on

cinema.

Bud

I

think

you

can

sync

that

up

if

you're

getting

individuals.

Steve

Yeah,

I

can.

Bud

Like

individual

streams.

You

can

just

sync

them

up.

Steve

Like

we

didn't

do

that

with

Aaron

each

time,

so.

Bud

Exactly.

Exactly.

Mike
