The hobbling was represented how he couldn't escape the drugs. He was putting this in his books, you know, like Tommy knockers is clearly cocaine. Yep. So he didn't say it for years cause he was so happy with how the book came out. He didn't want to attract from it. Apex mountain Bates. No question. Crazy obsessed fans in a movie. I mean, King of comedy. Yeah, you're right. That's number one. It's funny cause the Nero has done this twice. Cause then he did the fan, which is terrible. Yeah. Our guy, Tony Scott, but still bad movie. But King of comedy is, you know, I mean, for, for the, uh, it's the number. I, it's gotta be cause it was first also. Good point. Colorado. What about the overlook? The overlook hotel is the overlook hotel has to be Stephen King movies. No. What is the apex? It's probably Shawshank, right? It's Shawshank or the shining or yeah, the Shawshank or the shining, or, I mean, look, stand by me is kind of perfect. You know? I mean, stand by me is heartbreaking movie, but yeah, Shawshank let's, let's stop playing these. Shawshank is basically considered like one of the five best American movies now. Like, yeah, Shawshank Rob Reiner. I think it's a few good men. You could also argue it's when Harry met Sally. No, I like, I mean, I know you want to say America for you. It's American president. Princess Bride, American president. Oh, we forgot to mention Princess Bride. Princess Bride. We were doing all the Reiner movies. How did I fuck that up? I don't know. I mean, Princess Bride is crucial and, and, and important. And that's right up there. And you know, the wine scene, it's funny. The Iocane powder. He's trying to put Iocane powder in her wine, basically. Like in Princess Bride. The 1974 Jeep Cherokee S. I think this was Apex Mountain. Love it. The 1966 Ford Mustang. Probably not. Liberace. That's the other. I'm so glad you brought that up because that was my other quote that I wanted to mention. That line is incredible. Do you like Liberace? I'm going to go put on my Liberace records. Incredible. It's great. We have a new category. Was this their Hall of Fame plaque movie for special occasions like this one? I think for Kathy Bates, if she goes in the Hall of Fame, it's Annie Wilkes, which is tough for her for the plaque, but I think it's Annie Wilkes would be the, the plaque. I mean, she is, I mean, she isn't, I mean, just to talk about it for a second, because you're a hundred percent right. Absolutely the performance, but she is one of those actors who's never less than incredible. She's incredible in everything she's in. She is an all-star, like first team. Yeah, I agree. Actor. Best racehorse name from the movie. I mean, Misery obviously would be great. I don't know who would bet on that. Naming just the horse, Annie Wilkes, I think would be interesting. And then Dragon Nurse would be the other one, I think would be a really good horse name. And then Sheldon's Misery too. Sheldon's Misery. Yeah, that's good. Sheldon's Misery is a good one. I have a few pick and nits, Koppelman. Do it. Annie said she followed him when he got into the car accident. And that's how she knew he was in the accident. But if you watch the opening credits, which I did, because I'm a psycho and I'm also the host of the Rewatchables. There's no car behind him at any point. It's never tipped off. They have a couple wide shots where it's like, it shows a lot of the mountain and she's just not there. So I don't know. I don't know how she would have seen the accident. She could have been following him on a snowmobile in the woods. This is a permanent nitpick. This is a pretty good section. Permanent nitpicks. Yeah. When evil people or villains keep scrapbooks of all of their evil deeds. It's always ludicrous. Who does this? If you're evil and you have all this baggage, I'm definitely not putting that in my living room. Except this is the only thing. They do it. The fucking serial killers do it. They keep the weird shit. They keep the bones and they keep the dog tags. They keep all the weird shit. Put it in the attic? Yeah, yeah. Hide it. Definitely hide it better. At least under your bed? Hide it better. It's not like, oh, I left this out in the living room. This is a great nitpick and I'm really proud of it. I think you're going to enjoy it. I just feel like Paul would have owned his own place in Colorado at this point. Why is he staying in a hotel?
