Apex Mountain on The Rewatchables
82:34 – 90:21… brother drilled the dicks. Yeah. And I guess they filmed them while they were. That's funny. Wow. That is funny. God, what an amazing time. Uh, okay. Apex mountain here. Mm hmm. Seth Rogen. I'm going to go. No, no. James Franco. I'm going to say, no, he was nominated for an Oscar. Right. He was nominated for a golden globe for this film, by the way. Was he? But aren't the golden globes just as an entity kind of like retroactively worthless? Yeah. I mean, it was for the comedy musical category. Um, but still. Yeah. I mean, movies this stupid usually don't get nominations even in the golden globes. Uh, …
The whole segment, as transcribed
They filmed that scene in super bad while they were also filming in the woods for this movie. Didn't they draw, didn't they draw the dicks while they were filming that scene or something like that? I think Evan Goldberg's brother drilled the dicks. Yeah. And I guess they filmed them while they were. That's funny. Wow. That is funny. God, what an amazing time. Uh, okay. Apex mountain here. Mm hmm. Seth Rogen. I'm going to go. No, no. James Franco. I'm going to say, no, he was nominated for an Oscar. Right. He was nominated for a golden globe for this film, by the way. Was he? But aren't the golden globes just as an entity kind of like retroactively worthless? Yeah. I mean, it was for the comedy musical category. Um, but still. Yeah. I mean, movies this stupid usually don't get nominations even in the golden globes. Uh, Danny McBride. I'm going to say no. Eastbound and down. No way. Kenny. No. Uh, Amber Heard. No, no. She was in Aquaman. Um, Uggs. No, absolutely. Justin. No, Tom Brady had Uggs. But 2008 for Uggs, right when I started high school, every girl in the winter. Oh, they were wearing Uggs a lot. Sweatshirts, leggings, Uggs. Yeah, you're not wrong. Because Brady had it, because this was right when the Patriots are going undefeated, and then Brady also kind of had like the villain turn. So I'm saying like this year for Uggs. The year, yes, not the, but yes, this, this was peak Uggs time. 2008. For sure. Big. Have you ever worn Uggs? I have some Uggs. They don't look like the Uggs that, uh, Damien McBride was wearing. They're Ugg brand slippers. I had Ugg brand slippers. Someone gave me as a gift, and I pretended not to like them, because I was a stupid teenager, and I've worn them all the time. I'm just going to say it. I like Uggs. They're incredible. Don't be ashamed. Okay. I would wear Uggs. Uh, weed in movies. Yeah, I was going to say like stoner movies. Like, is this the apex for that genre? This is where like being Chris and Sean and Bill really helps. Yeah. We should probably not even comment on that. Weed in movies. You say no gut call. I've, I straight up. I feel too young to just like, like write off like. No, let's just ignorantly plow through this category. No, it's not. It's not even my favorite weed movie of my lifetime. I prefer Harold and Kumar. But I'm not saying weed movies. I'm saying weed in movies. Oh, the smoking of the weed in the movie. Yeah, maybe it itself. Okay. Okay. Okay. I think that's, there's an, there's an argument. Yeah. Yeah. The title of the movie is the weed. The MacGuffin of the film is the weed. 20 minutes is him smoking weed and then going to get weed from his. I think if you're talking about the actual weed, then yes. Cause the strain of the weed being the title of the movie. It's pretty big. And if it's wrong, then like, well, Sean and Bill could just yell at us. They're like blowing the weed smoke on the caterpillar. Yes. That's that. I can't believe we mentioned that. They're like sword fighting. They're like playing like hopscotch. What was it? When you hop over the person again? Leap, leapfrog. Leapfrog. Yeah. Dude, but the second blowing the rings into the slugs. That's like a, such a stoner thing to do. I feel like, what else you got for apex mountain for me, the movie gun cocking montage. They do it twice in this movie. That's a bold claim. You have to tell me if I'm wrong. Cause you know, the history of movies much better than I do. And maybe we should, we should have probably checked with like Bill and, and Sean and Chris and everybody. But like the two movies that I think about the most that I like in my movie watching history are hot fuzz. Uh huh. Lots of good gun cocking in that movie. Yeah. Just like gratuitous gun cocking. You know, they like actually pay like close attention to doing that. There's two in this one. They do that at Red's house when they're like, you know, don't, don't. And then they're like cocking. Yeah. And then they run out of bullets later at the farm and they do it again. Yeah. For fun. I'm like, this is the greatest, like to me, that's the best little like movie, little ad thing that I think this is the apex for gun cocking montages. I've seen so many crappy action eighties movies now that I've been doing the rewatchables for so long. Like I've seen so many of the like Rambos, Cobras, like Predator, you name it. So I, I'd be, there's no way. Yeah. Like it's gotta be Stallone or Schwarzenegger or something like that. But I respect it. Anything else? Uh, Gary Cole. He was Lumberg, famously Lumberg in office space. And then he was Ricky Bobby's dad. Those two roles though, have lines that are so much more quotable than anything here. Like literally he's the one who says, if you ain't first, you're last. Yep. And then he also an office space, like, you know, everything he does is those quotes I think are. So you think he was at the peak earlier? I guess that, I guess I can't speak to the powers. It's close though. He's like a main character in this movie. Yeah. I mean, he was in Veep for like six years, seven years. That's probably a bigger, there's more peak of his powers. That's definitely closer to peak of his powers. Um, there's a kilo of Colombian bam, bam, bam. Yeah. Uh, I got one more. I got one more. The day whoo Lanos. Yeah. I had that as well. It is definitely apex mountain for the day. I don't know anything about the day whoo Lanos, but it definitely is the apex. So I wanted to save this because apparently, um, according to Seth Rogen, red was originally supposed to kill Matheson with a Ford Fiesta. Yeah. But Ford didn't want their car involved in a movie murder. So they changed it to a day whoo Lanos, which is way, what a lame move by Ford. You just got killed by a day whoo Lanos motherfucker. That's yeah. Maybe the funniest line of the movie. Uh, Hyvitz, what do you got? I had the day whoo. The day was the, the definitely apex mountain for the day whoo. Day whoo Lanos. I didn't know. I, I don't know what a day whoo is. If it weren't for the same. I had a couple of friends that had day whoo's. Really? Yeah. Um, was this anyone's hall of fame plaque movie? I kind of think no, I couldn't think of anything, but I think it's why this movie is so great. Right. Because this is what the movie is. Yeah. It's no one's best film. It's just a good time. Nothing more. Mm-hmm. Uh, best racehorse name for this movie. I have snickle fritz. Yeah, that's good. Bong mitzvah. Ooh, I like that. What do you got? I mean, it's basic as fuck, but pineapple express is an excellent name for a racehorse. Sure. Good. Don't ever think it. I've got, I've got a few. Number one. I'm done with the woods. Okay. You would name a horse. I'm done with the woods down the stretch. I just think that fits. You know what I'm talking about? Yeah. When he's like, I'm done with woods. Let's go. Let's go. All right. Let's do it. Uh, anyone seen my bigger knife? You're doing like sentences for the horse name. Yeah. Have you ever heard horse names? They're all really long and weird. They're not that long. Not all of them. Maybe not that long. These are full sentences. I'm done with the knife. These are just quotes. Anyone, dude, so there's a scene, this probably should be in the best quote, but Gary Cole, it's like cutting from two and from scenes and Gary, it's like a, you know, he's like basically talking to his friends. He's like, anyone see my bigger knife? He's just holding a machete. That's right before everybody comes in. Yeah, yeah. To me, that was just great. Mr. Wiggles. This is in the red fight scene with, he's trying to get Gale back. He's like, where are you going, Mr. Wiggles? That is good. Um, not a compliment. All right. That's a good name for a reason. Not a compliment. Not a compliment. Down the stretch. What about, what about big sexy? When the female cop pulls up Dale's record. That's good. She goes, Oh, big sexy. With the glasses. She's also a cop in the hangover. Oh, that's right. Yes. Um, okay. That was the most, like to me, my friend, my friends and I in that era would say, not a compliment. Like a lot. Yeah. He's like, I get just kind of flabbergasted when I hear you say things like that. He's like, thank you. Not a compliment. The, for me, the action is the Jews award for best quote. There are so many. Yeah. I think you just got killed by a day. That was the first one I had. You just got killed by a day. Mulanos motherfucker. How you like me now? Huh? I think the funniest quote of the movie, a couple other ones. Um, I don't know why, but the, the Ted Jones, or the, the Saul talking about Ted Jones, when Seth Rogen asks, what do you know about Ted?
