Apex Mountain on The Rewatchables
66:08 – 68:53… Oh, yeah. Then when you see it, you see her whole body. I don't think that's true. Okay. Don't sneak your half-assed internet research by me. It doesn't work. Apex Mountain. I say yes for Richard Gere. Interesting. Because he had internal affairs same year. That was a big movie and it just felt like he had a nice run after this. Yeah. What comes after this? Not a lot of good stuff for him. I guess it is his apex. I mean, also like just- He basically starts moving into the Michael Douglas role of- Yeah. What he's a famous for. The older handsome white guy who gets into predicaments. Yeah. I guess it's his apex. …

The last one I don't think is true and I actually watched a movie to see if it, it said Gary Marshall was tickling Julie Roberts feet out of camera range to get her to laugh during I Love Lucy. Oh, yeah. Then when you see it, you see her whole body. I don't think that's true. Okay. Don't sneak your half-assed internet research by me. It doesn't work. Apex Mountain. I say yes for Richard Gere. Interesting. Because he had internal affairs same year. That was a big movie and it just felt like he had a nice run after this. Yeah. What comes after this? Not a lot of good stuff for him. I guess it is his apex. I mean, also like just- He basically starts moving into the Michael Douglas role of- Yeah. What he's a famous for. The older handsome white guy who gets into predicaments. Yeah. I guess it's his apex. I'll accept that. Yeah. Hector Elizondo? Yeah, absolutely. Although I just want to say, Chicago Hope is a great show and he was very good on it. Julie Roberts. We already decided this one. We said it was my best friend's wedding era, right? After- I think it's probably not her apex since this launch. She's T-Gar. Yeah. But she's excellent in it and just stunning. David Morris, yes. Whoever played that guy. Other than that, not a lot of apex. The Joey Pants Award. This is what we'll give to Hector Elizondo. Okay. Can you remind me what it is again? It's the Joe Pantoliani Award. I know. That guy. Okay. That guy. All right. I think we know him as Hector Elizondo, but I think a lot of people would know him as that guy from- Pretty Woman. Who played the hotel manager. He's great in this. She wins him over a little too fast. It goes from, why is this hooker in my hotel to, hey, can I get you on the phone with my- She's that charming. That works for me. You got to keep the movie going. Also, I think this is similar to The Bachelor. When you're around so many weirdos and rich people who are robotic, when you meet a normal person that you can just talk to regularly, it's really charming. So he's probably used to so many jerks that come into his hotel that when he meets this woman who's just silly and different, he's excited. I have a take that neither of you are going to like. All right. Great. I think he kind of wanted to hook up with her. Oh, that's not what I thought you were going to say. I think he was putting in the time in case he needed to circle back later. Yeah. Watch him again. A couple of long looks from Hector. A little inappropriate. Uncle Hector wouldn't do that. Uncle Barney wouldn't do that. Wasn't just a benevolent uncle. I don't know. Come on, man. He was laying the groundwork. That's the worst for me. I don't need that in the movie. I love the scene where he makes the phone call and she's listening. Yeah. I like that a lot. The other Joey Pants nominee, Ralph Bellamy, who most famously for my generation was one of the two guys in Trading Places, the old guys that Eddie Murphy and those guys steal from. He was 87 in this movie. Really? It was his final movie. He dies right after the movie. Well, Ralph Bellamy died for this and it was worth it. He did a great job. Ralph, I don't mean to sound condescending. No.
