Apex Mountain on The Rewatchables
65:18 – 69:20… was the Equalizer's son. And is he an Equalizer in training or like do you know what the plot line was? Unclear! That was where my research ended. Okay. Yeah. Apex Mountain. Denzel, no way. Vigilante movies, no way. East Boston is a movie location I think. Hands down, yes. Hands down, yes. Boston Sand and Gravel. I can't remember. Is that where Chucky worked in Good Will Hunting or no? Is that also where does Nicholson get killed in The Departed? It might have been there. I should have researched that more. It's some kind of like construction site, right? Yeah. It might all have been Boston Sand and Gravel. It …
The whole segment, as transcribed
I found out of my research. His son comes on the show for 12 episodes played by William Zabka. Oh wow! Johnny Lawrence from Karate Kid was the Equalizer's son. And is he an Equalizer in training or like do you know what the plot line was? Unclear! That was where my research ended. Okay. Yeah. Apex Mountain. Denzel, no way. Vigilante movies, no way. East Boston is a movie location I think. Hands down, yes. Hands down, yes. Boston Sand and Gravel. I can't remember. Is that where Chucky worked in Good Will Hunting or no? Is that also where does Nicholson get killed in The Departed? It might have been there. I should have researched that more. It's some kind of like construction site, right? Yeah. It might all have been Boston Sand and Gravel. It might have been. I don't think in those movies they showed the sign. Yeah. David Harbour, no. Boston Herald trucks. I'm going to say yes. I don't remember a Boston Herald truck figuring more prominently into a piece of pop culture. It's true. They really... Pretty great. Yeah. And then they kind of dip after spotlight. Do you think Boston Herald had to pay so that it wasn't Boston Globe to be in that scene? Get publicity? They probably did. Where did you work? The Herald or the Globe? Herald. Herald. Yeah. Craigslist postings? In movies, yeah. Is that a better Craigslist posting in a movie? Probably not. Any other Apex Mountain? I mean, I think that a box hardware store or a home store as a killing field is definitely Apex Mountain for this. Fake Home Depots? Uh-huh. Dad doesn't know what Apex Mountain is. He's just not... No, but I don't think Home Depot has been used that way before or after. There you go. Yeah. This is the good as it got. Picket Nets. Oh, no. Best racehorse name at the Equalizer. Yeah. Or fucking Flipperhead. Fucking Flipperhead would be good. Coming down the stretch. Picket Nets. All right. Denzel's playing right field. Yeah. For the softball team? I had an unanswerable question about this. Yeah. I thought he was playing left field. So wait, are you saying that... No, he's playing right field. Are you saying that because don't you think you would want Denzel in a higher leverage position or that right field requires like athleticism? Okay. I'm pretty sure he has the athleticism because we saw him kill six people in the span of 11 seconds. Right field is where you kind of stash somebody. We didn't see him cover a ton of ground. It's not like he could play center. Do you have like knee stuff? It's like put me in right. I don't think he wants everybody to know how talented he is at Home Depot. Well, they're all mystified by him. They think he's in Gwadis Knight in the Pips. Exactly. Oh, was he? Well, so if we do the movie softball team and Daniel Caffey is the shortstop and we got... And the player manager. Yeah. And we have... Player coach. Robert in right field. I don't know who else is in there. It's a pretty good team though. But yeah, right field just really jumped out at me. I would put him in left. Yeah. Left field is still a little unassuming in your body. But like you can use the cannon a little bit. Yeah. I just wanted to know what his slash line was. Like how important was he to the team? I had that down as well. Like his stats. Was he like a two for four, two hard doubles where the outfield wasn't playing guy or did he try to hit bombs? Yeah. Or just like hard singles? And I assumed that he hit the home run in the third inning that won the game. Also, didn't really call off the second baseman. The pop five. Yeah, almost ran him over. Vicky Knits. We did the... Are we sure there would be a diner that would stay up all night in East Boston? Kills six guys because his Russian prostitute acquaintance is even a strong word that he's talked to three times. Gets roughed up. It's kind of rude to him in the diner anyway. Yeah, he's not. This isn't exactly like his muse. Yeah. And he's just like, you know what? This is the one where I need to kill everybody. But I don't think he went there intending to kill six people. He went there to pay $9,800 to get her out of her situation. But he's not a spring chicken. He must have known that they weren't going to say,
