And then I didn't notice this in the 100 times I've watched this movie. But when Lloyd checks the time in the men's bathroom stall, his watch says casino alarm chronograph. So like he bought like a fake brand Casio watch was the joke. But it's really fast. You have to notice it. All right. Apex Mountain. So Apex Mountain is this means when somebody is at their highest level of success, power, influence. And you have to decide was this movie their Apex Mountain. So this is a good example for this. Jim Carrey. I think coming out of this movie. Well, Ace Ventura, I feel like was his Apex. So this I don't know. They both are. Yeah. But think after this, after he has three in a row, like he could basically get any movie green that he wanted. Right. He could have made a movie about a comedy about a haunted hotel where he's upside down. And the studio would have been like, OK, here's money. Make that. Yeah. I would probably say this.

What horse would you bet on? Seabass. OK. Me too. Picking Nits. We mentioned the kidnapping plot. I still don't really understand what happened or how she explained to the husband after he was saved.

Where's the Aspen society? Wondering what the fuck's going on with this lady and this weird guy with the crazy hair. Any other nitpicks for you in this movie? Anything that sticks in your craw? Nope. Well, I mean, I want Lloyd to end up with Mary. You know, it breaks my heart. But should that have been the sequel? No, because poor Mary. Mary's the best. Yeah. Mary's the best. Yeah. The next category is sequel, prequel, prestige TV, all black cast or untouchable. Well, they made a sequel and a prequel. So rarely do we have two of those actually happen. Um, is this movie better with Wayne Jenkins, Danny Trejo, Catherine Hahn, Steve Buscemi,
