42:08 – 44:54… about Harold Perrineau. Shout out to Harold Perrineau. This is the peak Perrineau. This is Harold Perrineau. Oz started this year. This was Harold Perrineau. Apex Mountain. Perrineau had like a little stretch here. Oh, yeah. He's still doing his thing. But he had a little stretch. It was Oz. It was the best man. Like, he was showing up everywhere. It's like, oh, my God. That guy's coming. He was huge. He's fucking narratoring us. He was in every Oz. Every single episode of Oz. And he had to knew he was going to die. At the point that the plane crashes, you look around. It's you. It's Alec Baldwin. That's why …

He knows what's on the back of the paddle. So that's the kind of guy that you want in a tight, right? Over the wheelchair guy from Oz? Over Harold Perrineau. By the way, let me tell you something about Harold Perrineau. Shout out to Harold Perrineau. This is the peak Perrineau. This is Harold Perrineau. Oz started this year. This was Harold Perrineau. Apex Mountain. Perrineau had like a little stretch here. Oh, yeah. He's still doing his thing. But he had a little stretch. It was Oz. It was the best man. Like, he was showing up everywhere. It's like, oh, my God. That guy's coming. He was huge. He's fucking narratoring us. He was in every Oz. Every single episode of Oz. And he had to knew he was going to die. At the point that the plane crashes, you look around. It's you. It's Alec Baldwin. That's why he was so in tune listening for the bear. He knows. You know, you think I would ever go on a wilderness trip, me, you, and Sean? No, it's like, there's no way. I know who's not. Like, it's going to be you guys. I have this written down. So the next rewatchable scene is Harold dies. And I wrote, the rule of three in action movies and horror movies. If there's only three left, the black guy will die. Yeah. It's like 100% of the time. Like, he had to know. What he should have done was kill one of them. It's like, there's three of us left. I'm going to die. It's like, no, I can see the press conference right now. Ringer retreat. Gone awry. It's like, it's like, it's like you and Sean. Sean Vandenberg went for a hike and two came back. Sean, all bearded and stuff like that. Where's Van? Where's Van? Rule of three. Joshua tree. It's a place like that. Rule of three. You know who goes. Yeah, this was, I think for 120 straight movies, there was a moment where it was like, X amount of people are left. You're like, ah, the black guy's going to die. You're done. Horror movies especially. I remember the one time they zagged on this was H2O, Halloween H2O, LL Cool J's in. With LL Cool J. It's like, I wonder when LL Cool J's going to die. Are they going to kill him at the hour mark or hour 10? But no. All the way through, made it. LL Cool J survived twice. Yeah. Because he's also survived in Deep Blue Sea. Right. Yep. But they got it out with Sam Jackson. They were like, yeah, we got it. That was one of the. One of the great scenes of all time. We should do a rundown of shocking of Van actually being like, what the fuck? I'll go further. I think it's a rewatchable. Deep Blue Sea? I love Deep Blue Sea. I like it too, but you think people are going to. No. I'm not saying we'll ever do it. I just, for me, it's a rewatchable. I love Deep Blue Sea. Deep was blue. My head was like a shark fan. It was like this LL Cool J song that he came out with for Deep Blue Sea. I like, I just remember being, yo, what the fuck? And he was dead. Well, because they promoted Sam Jackson as like the star of the movie. Mm-hmm. So that was great. Anyway, Harold dying.
79:54 – 83:20… dudes in the wood and a bear chasing the edge. Yeah! Yeah. And then the one dude is trying to get the wife and blah, blah, blah. Everybody has seen this, man. Apex Mountain. Bear movies? Yeah. For me. I think for me too. Yeah. Hopkins, no. Unless you count some of the recent achievements in Bear. But I don't, but I think this is the- I think this is the best mainstream Bear movie. Yeah. Alc Baldwin, no. Al McPherson, no. I think it's probably a few years earlier with the swimsuit issue. Harold Parano, yeah. I think- In movies, I would say that the best man is probably Harold Parano's Apex. But what year was the …

Even like we'd be in the barbershop, people be like, yo man, man, you the movie dude. Yeah. I seen this movie where it's just two dudes in the wood and a bear chasing the edge. Yeah! Yeah. And then the one dude is trying to get the wife and blah, blah, blah. Everybody has seen this, man. Apex Mountain. Bear movies? Yeah. For me. I think for me too. Yeah. Hopkins, no. Unless you count some of the recent achievements in Bear. But I don't, but I think this is the- I think this is the best mainstream Bear movie. Yeah. Alc Baldwin, no. Al McPherson, no. I think it's probably a few years earlier with the swimsuit issue. Harold Parano, yeah. I think- In movies, I would say that the best man is probably Harold Parano's Apex. But what year was the best man? 1998. 99. So it's getting close because you've got Oz coming off this. Actually, Oz is probably Harold Parano's Apex Mountain. If we're just talking like overall- I mean, you could argue Lost is probably his Apex Mountain. That was 20 million people watching that show. I mean, yeah. Yeah. Good career. Really great career. And they're doing the best man in the final chapters right now. Nice guy by all counts. Great guy. Beautiful daughter. Stabbed himself with a stick and the edge. Don't even know how. Ended up getting eaten by a bear. Don't even know how. It's like, whoa, I can't believe I did that. It's like, what'd you do? We didn't even get to see it. You're trying to make a spear. Like, how are you trying to make a spear that you would- I mean, if you're trying to make the spear and you got the knife, you're probably cutting away from- That's one of those like you kind of deserve to die at this point. If you're that dumb- If you're that incompetent that you can't make a fucking spear without stabbing yourself in the thigh- You stab yourself and it's deep. Yeah, you're done. The bear's gonna kill you. How about the name The Edge? Probably you too as the guitarist. It's the Zaypex Mountain for The Edge, right? Yeah. Okay. How about the Omega Seamaster Chronograph 2296? The fucking watch? Yeah. I guess so. That was that watch. Yeah, I'm going for that. It's called the James Bond watch. Best racehorse name from this movie. How about naming a horse, Bart the Bear? Get that fucking done. Bart the Bear is good. The Edge? The Edge is good. Fucking what else? It's tough. There wasn't a lot of- There is. There's not a lot of names in the movie, you know? Picking Nets. What supermodel wants a sandwich in bed late at night when she's eating a nightgown? A ham sandwich. Yeah. A ham sandwich. Who? What? A nighttime pork eater. Fucking weird. A fucking troglodyte. Like, wait, like, you know, it's like, we eat some nice chicken at night. Charles, make me one of your sandwiches. It's like, aren't you bottling tomorrow? What's going on? Like, she woke up in the middle of the- Literally, my dad used to wake me up and make me eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches before, so I could put weight off of football. Yeah. She's packing on the- I mean, look, whatever. I'm glad. It's just- Positivity, but it's like a nighttime ham sandwich. It's not like they made this movie in 1972. Like, by the mid-90s, we had, like, at least some semblance of knowledge about eating, eating late at night, maybe don't eat a sandwich at 1130. Did he make it on white bread as well? He didn't even ask. She never said, like, can you use the low-fat cheese? Like, nothing. She's a fucking model. Mentioned how did Harold get hurt as a pic in it. I don't understand that. This is a big one for me. So, Elle McPherson's character, Mickey, gets her lover Bob a watch.
