Henrique and David celebrate Martin Mull with Mr. Mom (1983), the family comedy that gave Michael Keaton his first top-billed feature role. Keaton plays Jack Butler, a Detroit auto engineer who loses his job and becomes a stay-at-home father while his wife, Caroline, returns to advertising. Teri Garr brings warmth and frustration to Caroline as both spouses discover that trading familiar roles changes the household, their confidence and their marriage.
The review revisits Jack’s spectacular learning curve with three children, a temperamental washing machine and a vacuum cleaner nicknamed Jaws. Kenny’s beloved woobie, burned chili, school-drop-off confusion and Jack’s improvised household repairs build physical comedy without losing the family’s affection. Henrique and David argue that Keaton’s speed, expressive face and controlled chaos make even ordinary domestic problems feel cinematic while keeping Jack fundamentally caring rather than cruel.
Martin Mull plays Caroline’s polished agency boss Ron Richardson, whose professional attention creates tension without reducing the story to a simple villain. Ann Jillian’s neighborhood friend Joan provides a parallel temptation for Jack, yet the hosts focus on the film’s empathy for both partners. Caroline must prove herself in a workplace shaped by condescension, while Jack confronts isolation, jealousy and the realization that domestic labor is demanding work rather than an extended vacation.
The episode traces the screenplay to John Hughes and his move from National Lampoon comedy toward the personal, sentimental storytelling that would define his career. Director Stan Dragoti balances Hughes’ marriage observations with broad set pieces, while Keaton and Garr sell the more vulnerable moments. The hosts discuss how Mr. Mom helped Keaton’s career accelerate, why Hughes’ early script anticipates his later films and how its role-reversal premise still opens useful conversations about work and parenting.
Henrique remembers discovering the movie after several better-known Hughes favorites, while David recalls it as a frequent cable selection in his family. Both give Mr. Mom a rent-it recommendation: an affectionate, funny and still-relevant comedy whose supporting cast keeps its episodic structure moving. Their companion picks—Night Shift, The Pacifier and Mr. Nanny—extend the conversation about unlikely caregivers, but Keaton’s mix of panic, pride and tenderness remains the episode’s central attraction.

Wow, mister Mom, but upside upside down?

25
00:01:50.640 --> 00:01:52.519
Yeah, yeah, yeah, because I always remember that joke about

26
00:01:52.519 --> 00:01:55.400
the tattoo with mom and Wow. That's a joke, not

27
00:01:55.519 --> 00:01:56.159
like SpongeBob.

28
00:01:56.159 --> 00:01:59.040
It was traditionally jokes make people laugh.

29
00:01:59.120 --> 00:02:00.480
El SpongeBob makes me laugh.

30
00:02:02.959 --> 00:02:05.879
Shut up, good buddy, good buddy. Uh.

31
00:02:05.879 --> 00:02:10.439
And we're getting ready to start a month of celebrating

32
00:02:10.719 --> 00:02:13.319
the life and career of Martin mull.

33
00:02:13.479 --> 00:02:14.080
That is correct.

34
00:02:14.439 --> 00:02:18.280
Martin Mule, a character actor who, while he made a

35
00:02:18.280 --> 00:02:20.800
big name for himself in television, especially in the nineties

36
00:02:20.840 --> 00:02:23.919
and early two thousands, is also one of the great

37
00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:28.199
character actors, especially of comedy films in the nineteen eighties

38
00:02:28.240 --> 00:02:32.719
and nineties. Yes, and he passed away very recently, and

39
00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:35.719
in order to celebrate him, we are not calling it

40
00:02:35.840 --> 00:02:38.840
Maulgus going because that's awful.

41
00:02:39.240 --> 00:02:41.080
I don't know what you want me to do. Like

42
00:02:41.159 --> 00:02:43.400
I tried to think of a name, and that was the.

43
00:02:43.520 --> 00:02:45.960
If it was better, I would like it.

44
00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:49.560
We had plenty of time, Maulgus august I.

45
00:02:49.639 --> 00:02:55.280
Yeah, look you you heard you made the sign.

46
00:02:57.159 --> 00:02:57.840
You broke it.

47
00:02:57.919 --> 00:02:58.719
I didn't break it.

48
00:02:58.919 --> 00:02:59.439
He broke it.

49
00:02:59.479 --> 00:02:59.840
I did not.

50
00:03:00.120 --> 00:03:03.080
So but yeah, so tonight we're gonna be talking about

51
00:03:04.319 --> 00:03:06.759
I would say, a classic, but one that has been

52
00:03:07.759 --> 00:03:09.319
somewhat overlooked.

53
00:03:09.439 --> 00:03:10.759
Yeah, over the last few years.

54
00:03:10.800 --> 00:03:13.360
Absolutely, as it was one of those that I remember

55
00:03:13.400 --> 00:03:15.439
it playing cable a lot when I was growing up

56
00:03:15.479 --> 00:03:16.960
because my parents would have it on when it was

57
00:03:16.960 --> 00:03:18.360
on for the most part, and.

58
00:03:18.520 --> 00:03:19.560
They would have it on when it was on.

59
00:03:19.599 --> 00:03:20.520
They would have it all was on.

60
00:03:20.599 --> 00:03:21.960
It'd be weird if they had it on when it

61
00:03:21.960 --> 00:03:22.319
was off.

62
00:03:22.400 --> 00:03:24.680
They would usually watch it if it was on TV. Yes,

63
00:03:25.240 --> 00:03:27.439
but no, it was. It was one of those movies

64
00:03:27.479 --> 00:03:31.360
that it took me probably until my mid twenties to

65
00:03:31.400 --> 00:03:33.879
really actually sit down and appreciate this film.

66
00:03:33.879 --> 00:03:35.919
To be honest, really, it's only ninety one minutes.

67
00:03:35.960 --> 00:03:41.400
You'd think it'd be faster, right, Hey got him, folks.

68
00:03:41.319 --> 00:03:43.879
But yeah, we were talking about nineteen eighty threes mister

69
00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:47.520
Mom starring Markael Keaton, mich Michael Keaton.

70
00:03:47.280 --> 00:03:51.319
Michael Keaton. At least it's not Mike Cocaine. Mike Cocaine.

71
00:03:51.439 --> 00:03:52.280
Let's take a sit my way.

72
00:03:52.360 --> 00:03:55.039
So, oh, that's great. I tried to hide the fact

73
00:03:55.479 --> 00:03:57.159
and then you just bring attention to that.

74
00:03:57.240 --> 00:03:59.479
I like drinking on air. I'm sorry, we.

75
00:03:59.400 --> 00:04:02.639
Know, we know we need to do another one of

76
00:04:02.680 --> 00:04:05.159
those toil our live streams you get where.

77
00:04:04.960 --> 00:04:08.000
You get toasted toasted. Just that was hilarious.

78
00:04:08.000 --> 00:04:08.560
It was fun.

79
00:04:09.039 --> 00:04:13.240
But anyway, yes, that all being said, this is a

80
00:04:13.319 --> 00:04:16.800
very special film because It was, in many ways the

81
00:04:16.839 --> 00:04:20.959
beginning of John Hughes's feature film careers, even though this

82
00:04:21.120 --> 00:04:25.240
is not generally considered in that epic ouvra that would

83
00:04:25.240 --> 00:04:26.560
come just a year or two later.

84
00:04:26.680 --> 00:04:28.240
Yeah, I mean, and it was. It was gonna be

85
00:04:28.279 --> 00:04:31.079
about another couple of years before he did his first directorial,

86
00:04:31.319 --> 00:04:34.279
and I think when he did a writing and directing together.

87
00:04:34.879 --> 00:04:38.279
Yeah, I would have to look at his filmography to

88
00:04:38.319 --> 00:04:39.399
get the exact beats.

89
00:04:39.879 --> 00:04:42.839
But he was a very, very prolific writer. But this

90
00:04:42.959 --> 00:04:49.800
was the beginning of his dare I say, extremely sentimental storytelling, absolutely,

91
00:04:49.800 --> 00:04:52.920
which became what he was most known for. Before that,

92
00:04:53.000 --> 00:04:55.240
he was mostly known for writing for the National Lampoon.

93
00:04:55.560 --> 00:04:58.759
He was mostly known for writing little jokey things here

94
00:04:58.759 --> 00:04:59.279
and there.

95
00:04:59.360 --> 00:05:01.639
Playboy, a little stories. Yeah, and he was writing all over.

96
00:05:01.879 --> 00:05:04.759
But then mister Mom is the beginning of him writing

97
00:05:04.800 --> 00:05:10.000
about his own life experiences, especially one of his fortes

98
00:05:10.040 --> 00:05:13.120
in my opinion, which is getting a little too close

99
00:05:13.480 --> 00:05:14.199
to reality.

100
00:05:14.279 --> 00:05:16.319
No, no, because he does that. He likes to show

101
00:05:16.360 --> 00:05:19.360
the ugly side of marriage. Yeah, but in a positive way.

102
00:05:19.519 --> 00:05:21.680
I think that's what a lot of people don't realize.

103
00:05:21.759 --> 00:05:24.240
Is like with movies, like you know, Breakfast Club, Weird Science,

104
00:05:24.319 --> 00:05:26.720
sixteen Candles, all the ones he's known for. I feel

105
00:05:26.759 --> 00:05:29.399
like a lot of those deeper ones, like she's having

106
00:05:29.399 --> 00:05:32.639
a baby, some kind of wonderful. When we watched recently

107
00:05:32.639 --> 00:05:34.360
Curly Sue, I feel like a lot of those get

108
00:05:34.439 --> 00:05:37.319
left to the side because they weren't received well when

109
00:05:37.360 --> 00:05:40.519
they got released, for one, but they found an audience

110
00:05:40.519 --> 00:05:43.439
when they hit cable, when they hit video and everything,

111
00:05:43.439 --> 00:05:46.120
and they're kind of getting some love now, especially since

112
00:05:46.319 --> 00:05:49.319
that one John Hughes collection I have is Planes Trains,

113
00:05:49.360 --> 00:05:52.240
Ferris Bueller, She's having a baby, some kind of wonderful

114
00:05:52.240 --> 00:05:52.920
and pretty in pink.

115
00:05:53.240 --> 00:05:53.720
Oh wow.

116
00:05:53.839 --> 00:05:56.439
So, I mean that's a collection that I wouldn't have

117
00:05:56.480 --> 00:05:58.240
expected because for a while there it was only the

118
00:05:58.240 --> 00:06:01.040
brat Pack collection, which was sixteen Candles, Breakfast Club, and.

119
00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:03.920
Well his his teen films are kind of immortal. Yeah,

120
00:06:03.959 --> 00:06:07.000
I mean, it's funny to think that the voice of

121
00:06:07.000 --> 00:06:10.959
an entire teenage generation was some thirty year old guy who.

122
00:06:10.800 --> 00:06:12.639
Got along with the kids and also was a big

123
00:06:12.720 --> 00:06:13.800
music fan with the kids too.

124
00:06:14.439 --> 00:06:15.959
He was a big fan with them, so like when

125
00:06:15.959 --> 00:06:17.639
they weren't around, he was like, I don't listen, I

126
00:06:17.639 --> 00:06:19.480
don't listen to music. No nice, So these kids are

127
00:06:19.480 --> 00:06:20.160
around no.

128
00:06:19.959 --> 00:06:24.360
No no no no no no no so so yes, we

129
00:06:24.399 --> 00:06:27.639
are talking about nineteen eighty three's Mister Mom, a film

130
00:06:27.639 --> 00:06:30.120
I've I've always enjoyed, Yeah, a film I discovered a

131
00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:33.959
lot later than some of Hughes's other work because I

132
00:06:34.040 --> 00:06:35.759
wanted to watch more of Hughes's work.

133
00:06:35.839 --> 00:06:37.240
Yeah, And I mean that's the thing is like when

134
00:06:37.279 --> 00:06:40.519
you when you know John Hughes's name from those those

135
00:06:40.680 --> 00:06:42.439
cult classics that we've all come to know and love,

136
00:06:42.519 --> 00:06:44.759
it's it's crazy to look back at his writing career

137
00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:46.720
and see what all he's credited on movies that, like

138
00:06:46.759 --> 00:06:49.879
I forgot about his credits song I mean, like Tinker Taylor, Soldier,

139
00:06:49.959 --> 00:06:52.439
Spy No, like more so for some reason, I forget

140
00:06:52.439 --> 00:06:54.720
he I forget he's the writer on Home Alone a lot.

141
00:06:55.000 --> 00:06:56.120
How I don't know.

142
00:06:56.319 --> 00:06:58.560
His name is the first name on the credit. I know.

143
00:06:58.600 --> 00:07:00.279
I just that's one that's one that kind of lished

144
00:07:00.319 --> 00:07:01.560
my mind from time to time. But it's just like

145
00:07:01.600 --> 00:07:03.079
every time I watched him, just like, oh shit, yeah

146
00:07:03.120 --> 00:07:06.639
he did write this. Yeah he was me go influenced

147
00:07:06.680 --> 00:07:08.439
a lot of the comedies that I grew up watching.

148
00:07:08.439 --> 00:07:10.920
But I didn't realize until later on that it was him,

149
00:07:11.000 --> 00:07:12.959
until I looked at the credits closer and whatnot.

150
00:07:12.959 --> 00:07:14.680
So what do you have against John Hughes.

151
00:07:14.439 --> 00:07:16.959
I have nothing. I love John Hughes. I'll fucking fight you.

152
00:07:17.040 --> 00:07:17.439
I like it.

153
00:07:17.439 --> 00:07:19.279
It's like until I looked at the credits closer and

154
00:07:19.439 --> 00:07:22.360
read the letters as they were organized.

155
00:07:22.000 --> 00:07:24.319
I also, you know it was there. There was a

156
00:07:24.360 --> 00:07:27.879
period where in college especially that I wanted to track

157
00:07:27.920 --> 00:07:31.720
down his entire filmography, both writing and directing. And by

158
00:07:31.759 --> 00:07:34.959
that point, I mean we're talking twenty eleven, twenty twelve,

159
00:07:35.879 --> 00:07:37.600
A lot of those either hadn't hit Blue Ray yet,

160
00:07:37.600 --> 00:07:40.600
they were still regulated to DVDs, and some of them

161
00:07:40.639 --> 00:07:42.160
were even out of print for a little like Dutch

162
00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:43.160
especially still.

163
00:07:43.360 --> 00:07:45.639
Yeah, Dutch was out of print well on and off.

164
00:07:45.680 --> 00:07:47.639
Like when I bought it on Blu Ray, it was

165
00:07:47.680 --> 00:07:50.079
in print. He paid like twenty one dollars. And now

166
00:07:50.079 --> 00:07:50.879
it's impossible.

167
00:07:50.959 --> 00:07:53.040
I looked into the last like Blu Ray of Dutch

168
00:07:53.040 --> 00:07:56.000
for like twenty bucks, right around the time that you

169
00:07:56.399 --> 00:08:02.240
and I started really like your Thanksgiving started happening, because

170
00:08:02.240 --> 00:08:04.319
I found a used copy for twenty bucks, and then

171
00:08:04.560 --> 00:08:06.040
that was the last thing listed on him.

172
00:08:06.279 --> 00:08:08.480
I bought mine brand new one best buy because I

173
00:08:08.480 --> 00:08:08.720
had to.

174
00:08:08.879 --> 00:08:11.560
Remember when you got it. Yeah, you're excited.

175
00:08:11.720 --> 00:08:15.240
So but now, thank goodness, Dutch is streaming and readily available,

176
00:08:15.279 --> 00:08:18.600
and that's a film we'll be definitely talking about in November, yes, so,

177
00:08:19.199 --> 00:08:23.000
but for now, I guess it's about time we jump

178
00:08:23.040 --> 00:08:26.519
into Mister Mom from nineteen eighty three, unless there's more

179
00:08:26.519 --> 00:08:28.680
you want to embarrass yourself about when it comes to

180
00:08:28.759 --> 00:08:31.000
I know what you did last summer. No, I'm good, okay,

181
00:08:31.040 --> 00:08:32.960
I got them as soon as the Zilver will be watching,

182
00:08:33.000 --> 00:08:34.720
I still know.

183
00:08:34.799 --> 00:08:35.919
Oh god, the fuck we will.

184
00:08:36.080 --> 00:08:37.799
Yeah no, don't worry. I already bought it on your

185
00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:39.200
on your voodoo account.

186
00:08:39.200 --> 00:08:41.399
You better not have so well, I mean, whoever's credit

187
00:08:41.440 --> 00:08:43.799
cards on it, that's who got your mine, and you

188
00:08:43.840 --> 00:08:47.080
better not have. Oh well, you know, life is full

189
00:08:47.080 --> 00:08:47.960
of fun surprises.

190
00:08:48.039 --> 00:08:50.440
I'm playing off right now buying a Bad Boys rid

191
00:08:50.519 --> 00:08:52.559
or Die because it's twenty five bucks right now, which

192
00:08:52.559 --> 00:08:54.519
isn't bad, but it comes with the little bonus content.

193
00:08:54.559 --> 00:08:57.440
But I'm also just like, it's gonna drop, It's gonna drop.

194
00:08:57.519 --> 00:08:58.440
I hope it's gonna drop.

195
00:08:58.480 --> 00:09:00.159
Well, of course it's gonna draw. It's not like it's

196
00:09:00.159 --> 00:09:00.679
physical media.

197
00:09:00.679 --> 00:09:02.679
They're not going to run out of the of the

198
00:09:02.720 --> 00:09:06.720
four K digital down. Then I'm sorry, that's it, kid, Sorry, sorry,

199
00:09:06.759 --> 00:09:09.840
that's the end of that. So anyway, let's get to

200
00:09:09.879 --> 00:09:12.080
the pertinent beats on Ris Moms.

201
00:09:11.720 --> 00:09:14.879
Burda D starting Mister Mom one hour and thirty one minutes,

202
00:09:14.960 --> 00:09:18.399
rated PG for some mild vulgar language. The director of

203
00:09:18.399 --> 00:09:21.080
this film is Stan Girigotti. He gets his start in

204
00:09:21.159 --> 00:09:23.799
nineteen seventy two with a film called Dirty Little Boy,

205
00:09:24.080 --> 00:09:27.080
goes on to direct McCoy in nineteen seventy five. One

206
00:09:27.080 --> 00:09:29.320
of my personal favorites, Love at First Bite in nineteen

207
00:09:29.320 --> 00:09:31.759
seventy nine. Have you seen that with the first George

208
00:09:31.759 --> 00:09:35.120
Hamilton Richard Benjamben. Yeah, oh dude, that movie's so funny.

209
00:09:35.399 --> 00:09:37.519
Then he does Mister Mom in nineteen eighty three, She's

210
00:09:37.559 --> 00:09:39.639
out of control on eighty nine, and then his last

211
00:09:39.679 --> 00:09:42.000
credit is Necessary Roughness in ninety one.

212
00:09:42.320 --> 00:09:44.840
Oh wow, not that long, not much. No, did he

213
00:09:44.919 --> 00:09:45.639
do something else?

214
00:09:45.759 --> 00:09:48.639
No, his resume stops there and he did not pass

215
00:09:48.720 --> 00:09:50.080
until I want to say, I think it was twenty

216
00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:50.799
twenty one or so.

217
00:09:51.000 --> 00:09:51.519
Oh wow.

218
00:09:51.679 --> 00:09:54.399
Yeah, uh, moving down to our writer. We've already talked

219
00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:56.720
a lot about him, but let's go into mister John Hughes.

220
00:09:57.000 --> 00:09:59.000
He gets his start as a writer in nineteen seventy

221
00:09:59.039 --> 00:10:02.080
nine on Delta House, which was the pre Animal House.

222
00:10:02.480 --> 00:10:04.480
I want to say short or something like that that

223
00:10:04.519 --> 00:10:08.200
they did. Wow you sound drunk, classrooadd in nineteen eighty two,

224
00:10:08.320 --> 00:10:11.200
Mister Mom in eighty three. He writes Vacation in eighty three,

225
00:10:11.480 --> 00:10:14.240

226
00:10:14.279 --> 00:10:16.559

232
00:10:29.120 --> 00:10:31.320
She's Having a Baby in eighty eight, which he also directs,

233
00:10:31.440 --> 00:10:34.159
The Great Outdoors, Uncle Buck in eighty nine, Chris's Vacation

234
00:10:34.240 --> 00:10:36.279
eighty nine, and Home Alone in nineteen ninety.

235
00:10:36.840 --> 00:10:39.919
Well, real quick, Yes, Delta House, don't read don't read

236
00:10:39.960 --> 00:10:42.120
My screen too bad, we're on a show together.

237
00:10:42.240 --> 00:10:42.799
Huh huh.

238
00:10:42.840 --> 00:10:43.600
So I'm helping.

239
00:10:43.960 --> 00:10:45.919
I'm not saying, hey, stupid, I'm just saying I went

240
00:10:45.960 --> 00:10:47.759
ahead and looked it up real quick while you were talking,

241
00:10:47.960 --> 00:10:53.000
and Delta House was actually a spinoff, a television spinoff.

242
00:10:52.600 --> 00:10:54.039
Oh okay, of Animal House.

243
00:10:53.919 --> 00:10:55.320
Because Animal House Light.

244
00:10:55.440 --> 00:11:00.360
Yeah, a year later, and it apparently had one season

245
00:11:00.360 --> 00:11:01.440
of thirteen episodes.

246
00:11:01.519 --> 00:11:01.840
Damn.

247
00:11:01.960 --> 00:11:02.840
I had not heard of it.

248
00:11:02.840 --> 00:11:07.159
Executive produced by Ivan Rightman, so that is what it is.

249
00:11:07.240 --> 00:11:11.000
And obviously they brought on Fughs is one of the writers.

250
00:11:11.120 --> 00:11:12.679
Yeah, and I have a book all about the real

251
00:11:12.720 --> 00:11:15.399
Animal House. I think that's what's actually called. That goes

252
00:11:15.440 --> 00:11:17.840
into the detail of the fraternity and everything. And I've

253
00:11:17.840 --> 00:11:20.000
heard I've read reviews of it that's really good. I

254
00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:21.960
haven't a chance to read it yet, but Hughes has

255
00:11:22.039 --> 00:11:24.000
a couple writing segments in that book, so I'm very

256
00:11:24.039 --> 00:11:26.519
anxious to get to it. A house made of animal,

257
00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:28.360
house made of animal, just like a house made of wax.

258
00:11:29.120 --> 00:11:30.639
It is a house. Literally.

259
00:11:30.919 --> 00:11:32.960
A friend of mine was on social media talking about

260
00:11:33.000 --> 00:11:35.399
the House of Wax remake yeah, and said he was like,

261
00:11:35.440 --> 00:11:38.559
I just imagined that they were having a meeting about

262
00:11:38.559 --> 00:11:40.600
this film, and they were like, I want to see

263
00:11:40.600 --> 00:11:42.360
the original House of Wax because I think we should

264
00:11:42.360 --> 00:11:44.480
remake it. So we jokingly slid him a copy of

265
00:11:44.519 --> 00:11:47.559
Turis and then the guy was like, let's.

266
00:11:47.399 --> 00:11:49.720
Do it, and do it oh, because it absolutely is

267
00:11:49.759 --> 00:11:51.519
a remake of Tourist Trap more than it is a

268
00:11:51.519 --> 00:11:52.480
remake of House of Wax.

269
00:11:52.559 --> 00:11:55.279
Well yeah, well, House of Wax the original doesn't really

270
00:11:55.279 --> 00:11:58.279
fit into a teen screen no space the way the

271
00:11:58.279 --> 00:11:59.320
House of Wax remake.

272
00:11:59.480 --> 00:12:01.679
I mean it feels more like Waxwork in a sense,

273
00:12:01.960 --> 00:12:05.360
but I mean using it without the supernatural element.

274
00:12:06.000 --> 00:12:07.840
It feels like Rocky, you know, without the boxing.

275
00:12:07.879 --> 00:12:11.799
Yeah, shut up, So I'm about to say the supernatural

276
00:12:11.879 --> 00:12:16.200
must off that, but nevermind. Moving down to our cinematographer,

277
00:12:16.320 --> 00:12:18.799
we have Victor J. Kemper. He gets his start as

278
00:12:18.840 --> 00:12:21.559

282
00:12:30.639 --> 00:12:33.639
seventy five he shoots a little film called Dog Day Afternoon.

283
00:12:33.840 --> 00:12:34.399
Never heard of it.

284
00:12:34.519 --> 00:12:36.279
Never heard of it either, But I know it's hard

285
00:12:36.320 --> 00:12:38.159
to work with animals, so God loves them.

286
00:12:38.200 --> 00:12:40.200
So then he goes on in seventy six to shoot

287
00:12:40.360 --> 00:12:42.840

Wow, this guy shot like everything, an immense amount of comedy.

306
00:13:38.320 --> 00:13:40.440
Eddie the Whoopy Goldberg film in nineteen ninety six.

307
00:13:40.559 --> 00:13:41.960
Oh, that's where it started to go down.

or Nothing in two thousand and six. Unfortunately, he died

311
00:13:50.440 --> 00:13:53.080
in twenty twenty three at ninety six years old. No

312
00:13:53.120 --> 00:13:54.440
cause of death given, so I think it was just

313
00:13:54.480 --> 00:13:55.000
old age.

314
00:13:55.039 --> 00:13:57.399
Well at ninety six, he's price guy, Divan.

315
00:13:57.159 --> 00:14:01.360
Scott Jesus, but Victor J. Kemper We we salute you.

316
00:14:01.399 --> 00:14:02.320
What a hell of a resume.

317
00:14:02.559 --> 00:14:06.279
An incredible list of films, yes, and so many of

318
00:14:06.320 --> 00:14:07.000
them memorable.

319
00:14:07.120 --> 00:14:09.480
Yeah, I have a lot of big favorites on that one.

320
00:14:09.600 --> 00:14:12.080
So moving down to our IMDb synopsis, it says after

321
00:14:12.120 --> 00:14:14.799
he suddenly laid off a husband switches roles with his wife,

322
00:14:14.879 --> 00:14:17.039
she returns to the workplace, and he becomes a stay

323
00:14:17.039 --> 00:14:18.600
at home dad, and he has to take care of

324
00:14:18.639 --> 00:14:20.799
three young children, a job he has no clue how

325
00:14:20.840 --> 00:14:21.039
to do.

326
00:14:21.759 --> 00:14:23.480
I mean that pretty much nails it.

327
00:14:23.960 --> 00:14:26.639
My synopsis says, when Jack Butler is laid off from

328
00:14:26.639 --> 00:14:28.279
his job, he assumes the role of stay at home

329
00:14:28.360 --> 00:14:30.440
dad while his wife returns to work. While his wife

330
00:14:30.480 --> 00:14:32.440
begins to move up the corporate ladder, Jack struggles to

331
00:14:32.480 --> 00:14:33.360
keep his family together.

332
00:14:35.279 --> 00:14:38.519
Yours was a bit wordier. Yeah, but they both accomplished it.

333
00:14:38.759 --> 00:14:41.399
But real quick, I'm just gonna there.

334
00:14:41.399 --> 00:14:42.120
We care enough.

335
00:14:42.799 --> 00:14:45.120
I just fixed his microphone like a mom, I should

336
00:14:45.159 --> 00:14:46.240
have licked my thumb.

337
00:14:46.000 --> 00:14:48.759
Please, and and like wipe, wipe, you clean too.

338
00:14:49.200 --> 00:14:51.200
So moving down to our cast, we have a Jack

339
00:14:51.240 --> 00:14:53.840
Butler who's played by Michael Keaton. Ninety one credits on

340
00:14:53.879 --> 00:14:54.320
his resume.

341
00:14:54.360 --> 00:14:57.360
By the way, Michael Keaton's well, because he kind of

342
00:14:57.360 --> 00:14:59.240
fell off the face of the earth for a while.

343
00:14:59.200 --> 00:15:02.080
About the late or yeah, I would say late nineties,

344
00:15:02.080 --> 00:15:04.360
early two thousands, his resume goes a little flat, but

345
00:15:04.559 --> 00:15:08.240
starting in nineteen seventy four on Mister Rogers neighborhood appears

346
00:15:08.240 --> 00:15:11.159

his first feature in nineteen eighty two with Night Shift,

350
00:15:18.960 --> 00:15:21.240
Mister Mom in nineteen eighty three, then nineteen eighty four,

he does Johnny Dangerously eighty six. He does Gung Ho,

352
00:15:24.120 --> 00:15:26.279

00:15:37.320 --> 00:15:39.639
Batman Returns in ninety two, Much Ado About Nothing in

and Jack Frost in ninety eight.

362
00:15:50.200 --> 00:15:52.919
The Mutant Killer snow, I wish I wish you would

363
00:15:52.919 --> 00:15:53.200
have been.

364
00:15:53.320 --> 00:15:55.720
I gotta say I'm always surprised when I look back

365
00:15:55.759 --> 00:16:01.279
at Michael Keaton's resume. Yeah, that his work was so compressed,

366
00:16:01.840 --> 00:16:04.519
like the amount of stuff he did in eighty eight alone,

367
00:16:05.000 --> 00:16:06.799
but then the fact that he did Batman in eighty

368
00:16:06.879 --> 00:16:10.399
nine and Pacific Heist Heights in ninety yeah.

369
00:16:10.200 --> 00:16:10.840
Is crazy.

370
00:16:11.200 --> 00:16:14.799
I can honestly say, I've seen every movie on this

371
00:16:14.879 --> 00:16:17.080
resume that I just read, and I really don't think

372
00:16:17.120 --> 00:16:20.399
he has a bad film. I'm gonna say it, I

373
00:16:20.480 --> 00:16:21.519
really like Michael Keaton.

374
00:16:22.559 --> 00:16:24.679
Just because you like Michael Keaton doesn't mean he didn't

375
00:16:24.679 --> 00:16:25.399
have a bad film.

376
00:16:25.440 --> 00:16:29.200
Yeah, I don't. All the movies on that list that

377
00:16:29.240 --> 00:16:31.759
I just read I would watch easily right right now.

378
00:16:32.080 --> 00:16:32.840
Multiplicity.

379
00:16:33.000 --> 00:16:36.159
I like Multiplicity?

380
00:16:36.200 --> 00:16:47.000
Do you even? Movie? Will be right back, welcome back

381
00:16:47.039 --> 00:16:54.559
to Do you even movie? You don't like Multiplicity? It's fine, Okay,

382
00:16:54.600 --> 00:16:55.240
I was gonna say.

383
00:16:55.240 --> 00:16:58.039
We talked about Multiplicity, but it is toward that it

384
00:16:58.159 --> 00:17:01.120
is toward the end of his his big run, but

385
00:17:01.440 --> 00:17:02.679
his initial big run.

386
00:17:02.799 --> 00:17:05.160
Okay, so he does, so let's let's go back. So

387
00:17:05.240 --> 00:17:07.279
he does Batman, Returns in ninety two, Much of You

388
00:17:07.319 --> 00:17:10.039
About Nothing in ninety three, which he's hilarious in, and

389
00:17:10.079 --> 00:17:11.799
then he does My Life in ninety three. Have you

390
00:17:11.799 --> 00:17:12.720
ever seen My Life?

391
00:17:13.240 --> 00:17:15.160
I would never want to See Your Life where.

392
00:17:14.960 --> 00:17:18.279
He finds out he has cancer and he's dying. It

393
00:17:18.359 --> 00:17:21.720
sounds funny, but no, it's an amazing movie. Then he

394
00:17:21.720 --> 00:17:23.319
does The Paper in ninety four, which I got to

395
00:17:23.319 --> 00:17:27.880
show you The Paper fantastic. Speechless maybe the one that

396
00:17:27.920 --> 00:17:30.400
I enjoy it, but it's not great. He and Geena

397
00:17:30.440 --> 00:17:32.920
Davis play speech writers and that fall in love.

398
00:17:33.519 --> 00:17:35.759
Are they writing for like politicians? Okay?

399
00:17:35.799 --> 00:17:38.400
And there's one point where they start sabotaging each other's work.

400
00:17:38.960 --> 00:17:39.480
That's funny.

401
00:17:39.559 --> 00:17:43.359
Yeah, that's got some pretty good scene multiplicity. I'll watch it.

402
00:17:43.440 --> 00:17:45.440
I like it. Jackie Brown. I think he's great in

403
00:17:45.480 --> 00:17:47.319
and Desperate Measures. I got to show you another great

404
00:17:47.319 --> 00:17:49.039
one where he plays a psychopath.

405
00:17:50.039 --> 00:17:52.559
No, I mean I was not saying that he is

406
00:17:52.599 --> 00:17:53.200
not a good actor.

407
00:17:53.240 --> 00:17:54.440
Oh no, that's exactly what you said.

408
00:17:54.799 --> 00:18:00.119
Okay, he is not a good actor. Case in point, Batman.

409
00:18:00.200 --> 00:18:02.559
Man, as I wear this shirt, you say that to

410
00:18:02.599 --> 00:18:03.400
my fucking face.

411
00:18:03.519 --> 00:18:06.119
I would never say anything close to your face.

412
00:18:06.279 --> 00:18:09.000
Moving down to our list, we have Terry Garr, who

413
00:18:09.000 --> 00:18:10.799
plays Carolyn Butler in the film one hundred and fifty

414
00:18:10.839 --> 00:18:13.240

415
00:18:13.319 --> 00:18:15.400

even appears on Frasier in ninety five as well.

435
00:19:10.559 --> 00:19:12.759
You know, it's funny that you say this, because I

436
00:19:12.799 --> 00:19:16.279
knew that she had quite a career. Yeah, but I

437
00:19:16.359 --> 00:19:19.599
will say that I as we were watching this film tonight,

438
00:19:20.240 --> 00:19:23.440
I definitely had that moment where I was like, holy crap,

439
00:19:24.039 --> 00:19:27.759
she comes off as so much more seasoned, yeah than

440
00:19:27.759 --> 00:19:30.440
Michael Keaton, and I knew that he was early in

441
00:19:30.480 --> 00:19:34.279
his acting career. Yeah, but but I mean, I could

442
00:19:34.279 --> 00:19:36.960
not have been more correct. I mean, she had just

443
00:19:37.319 --> 00:19:43.079
piles and piles and piles of credits. Yeah, and my god,

444
00:19:43.160 --> 00:19:45.400
I mean to she's one of the very few people

445
00:19:45.400 --> 00:19:48.079
I've seen who bounces between TV and movies in.

446
00:19:47.960 --> 00:19:50.079
That era so quickly and effortlessly.

447
00:19:50.160 --> 00:19:51.519
And that's one thing that I picked up on with

448
00:19:51.599 --> 00:19:55.359
Keaton's resume was correct me if I'm wrong, but typically wrong.

449
00:19:55.519 --> 00:19:57.519
It was one of those situations where if you did

450
00:19:57.599 --> 00:19:59.279
if you did a feature and then went to TV,

451
00:19:59.519 --> 00:20:01.440
that was a that was a down spiral. Correct.

452
00:20:01.680 --> 00:20:04.880
Well yeah, yeah, So it's more that it was generally

453
00:20:05.319 --> 00:20:09.319
and the rules are different because Michael Keaton would be

454
00:20:09.319 --> 00:20:12.480
considered a movie star and what was her name?

455
00:20:12.519 --> 00:20:15.279
Again? I'm sorry, Terry, Terry Garr, what's wrong with your nose?

456
00:20:15.319 --> 00:20:17.440
Did you before the show? I lit?

457
00:20:17.440 --> 00:20:18.759
My mustache is sweating.

458
00:20:19.599 --> 00:20:21.880
That's not how that works. We're sending you back to

459
00:20:21.920 --> 00:20:27.680
elementary school. But Terry gar right, Terry Garr, while a

460
00:20:27.839 --> 00:20:30.960
very talented and memorable actress, was not really considered a

461
00:20:31.000 --> 00:20:35.759
movie star. She wasn't Cheryl Streep, Cheryl Streep, Meryl Streep.

462
00:20:36.960 --> 00:20:38.200
This is like my eighth podcast.

463
00:20:38.400 --> 00:20:40.839
Did you combine Cheryl T's and Meryl Streep together?

464
00:20:41.039 --> 00:20:46.559
Sure, my powers are limitless. There are many things I've done.

465
00:20:46.960 --> 00:20:51.000
But but so, while she was in major movies with

466
00:20:51.079 --> 00:20:54.279
major roles, she was bouncing back and forth a lot

467
00:20:54.319 --> 00:20:56.599
more similar to probably how we're gonna see when we

468
00:20:56.599 --> 00:21:00.519
look at Martin Mole's biography as well. Absolutely so, on

469
00:21:00.519 --> 00:21:03.160
one hand, yeah, if you were a movie star, if

470
00:21:03.160 --> 00:21:06.119
you were a Michael Keaton and you went to television,

471
00:21:06.119 --> 00:21:09.119
it would be considered a sign that you're on your

472
00:21:09.160 --> 00:21:12.519
way back down, because usually you would go through TV

473
00:21:12.640 --> 00:21:15.279
on your way up to features and then go back

474
00:21:15.319 --> 00:21:17.519
through TV on the way down. Now, of course, today

475
00:21:17.880 --> 00:21:22.240
television and movies are barely different. They exchange casts all

476
00:21:22.279 --> 00:21:25.039
the time. You have very few major actors who would

477
00:21:25.039 --> 00:21:28.279
refuse to be on a high end television series.

478
00:21:28.319 --> 00:21:30.720
But yeah, it was considered.

479
00:21:30.240 --> 00:21:33.880
Like a working man's space and a place where movie

480
00:21:33.880 --> 00:21:37.319
stars didn't hazard to go unless it was I mean,

481
00:21:37.359 --> 00:21:39.440
the first time that was that taboo was really being

482
00:21:39.480 --> 00:21:44.039
broken was when Steven Spielberg had amazing stories, because then

483
00:21:44.079 --> 00:21:46.039
it was like, well, yeah, I'm going to work on.

484
00:21:46.000 --> 00:21:47.839
TV with Spielberg.

485
00:21:47.960 --> 00:21:50.359
Yeah, so they were able to kind of, you know,

486
00:21:50.680 --> 00:21:53.079
keep their their appearances up.

487
00:21:53.240 --> 00:21:55.480
Totally makes sense. So moving down to the last on

488
00:21:55.519 --> 00:21:57.279
our cast that we're gonna talk about is Martin Mall,

489
00:21:57.319 --> 00:21:59.599
who plays Ron Richardson in this one hundred and forty

490
00:21:59.599 --> 00:22:02.200
six credit it's on his resume. Gets his start in

491
00:22:02.240 --> 00:22:04.720
seventy six with Mary Hartman Mary Hartman, then goes on

492
00:22:04.759 --> 00:22:07.279
to do Firmwood Tonight in seventy seven, Wonder Woman in

493
00:22:07.319 --> 00:22:10.359
seventy seven. Laugh In gets his first feature in seventy

494
00:22:10.400 --> 00:22:13.400
eight with FM, appears on Taxi in seventy nine, Cereal

495
00:22:13.440 --> 00:22:16.160
in eighty, My Bodyguard in nineteen eighty, Take This Job

496
00:22:16.200 --> 00:22:19.079
and Shove at eighty one Square Pegs Private School, then

497
00:22:19.079 --> 00:22:21.759
does Mister Mom in eighty three, Bad Manners in nineteen

498
00:22:21.759 --> 00:22:24.920

Which is the first time I fully remember him.

529
00:23:39.640 --> 00:23:42.400
That's gotta be for me too, honestly. I mean there

530
00:23:42.440 --> 00:23:43.799
may be a movie in there that Mom and dab

531
00:23:43.799 --> 00:23:46.119
were watching, like Clue is one that I saw very young,

532
00:23:46.960 --> 00:23:48.400
so that could have been it too, But yeah, I

533
00:23:48.400 --> 00:23:50.359
would say Sabrina is one that I definitely well.

534
00:23:50.359 --> 00:23:53.039
For me ninety seven, I was eleven, So what it

535
00:23:53.079 --> 00:23:54.839
was airing I was the age group that it was

536
00:23:54.839 --> 00:23:57.960
marketed towards. I was watching it on ABC. Yeah yeah, Oh,

537
00:23:58.079 --> 00:24:01.920
I mean it was it was marketed to you was ABC,

538
00:24:02.240 --> 00:24:02.880
it was ABBC.

539
00:24:03.000 --> 00:24:03.200
Yeah.

540
00:24:03.359 --> 00:24:05.880
I remember those those promos for Sabrina when that show

541
00:24:05.920 --> 00:24:07.559
was coming out that they were everywhere.

542
00:24:07.920 --> 00:24:10.680
Yeah, No, it was NonStop. If you were a teen,

543
00:24:11.039 --> 00:24:13.519
you had to watch Sabrina. Well, and they were able

544
00:24:13.559 --> 00:24:18.160
to get us because kids my age had watched Melissa

545
00:24:18.240 --> 00:24:20.759
Joan Hart on Clarissa explains at All. Yeah, so we

546
00:24:20.799 --> 00:24:23.799
already knew who she was. We liked her, we loved

547
00:24:23.839 --> 00:24:26.200
her show. So then they were like, hey, we got

548
00:24:26.240 --> 00:24:29.640
a new show with Melissa Joan Hart, and everybody wanted

549
00:24:29.640 --> 00:24:32.279
to watch it. Yeah, because we were all sick of

550
00:24:32.319 --> 00:24:34.319
the Secret World of Alex Mack by that point.

551
00:24:34.359 --> 00:24:37.960
Did you watch Netflix's Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. No, I

552
00:24:37.960 --> 00:24:38.799
have not had a chance to do.

553
00:24:39.079 --> 00:24:40.759
I mean, I'm sure it's cool.

554
00:24:40.920 --> 00:24:41.720
Yeah, I just.

555
00:24:43.319 --> 00:24:47.559
The appeal of Sabrina the teenage Witch for my generation, yeah,

556
00:24:47.599 --> 00:24:49.559
was that it was literally a sitcom.

557
00:24:49.680 --> 00:24:51.200
Yeah. Well Salem stole the show.

558
00:24:51.519 --> 00:24:53.079
Oh well yeah he was. He was hilarious.

559
00:24:53.599 --> 00:24:56.200
But but yeah, aside from the talking cat, it was

560
00:24:56.240 --> 00:24:59.640
it was a sitcom. It was not a serious program.

561
00:24:59.720 --> 00:25:04.519
It was is goofy humor every week. And I understand

562
00:25:04.559 --> 00:25:07.200
that they went in the darker direction. Yeah, maybe it

563
00:25:07.240 --> 00:25:09.000
was more true to the source material.

564
00:25:09.039 --> 00:25:09.480
I don't know.

565
00:25:10.240 --> 00:25:13.759
But because of that, it made me go, what, there's

566
00:25:13.799 --> 00:25:15.039
a serious horror Sabrina.

567
00:25:15.079 --> 00:25:16.799
But it didn't make me run to go watch it.

568
00:25:17.799 --> 00:25:20.359
Watching it, I had I'd bought the complete series of

569
00:25:20.359 --> 00:25:23.279
Sabrina the Teenage, which because I'd wanted to watch, I

570
00:25:23.599 --> 00:25:25.440
couldn't remember if I'd seen all of it, and I

571
00:25:25.519 --> 00:25:27.799
made it to season six, and then I abandoned the show.

572
00:25:28.440 --> 00:25:29.599
What a dick, dude.

573
00:25:29.680 --> 00:25:31.559
It got bad when she went to college, like I

574
00:25:31.599 --> 00:25:34.359
can do, like the first season of the college seasons

575
00:25:34.440 --> 00:25:37.319
and then I'm out. There was a part where Hilda

576
00:25:37.440 --> 00:25:42.400
and was it aunt Hilda and what's her other name? Zelda?

577
00:25:42.480 --> 00:25:45.720
Hilda and Zelda they do a rap song in one episode.

578
00:25:45.799 --> 00:25:46.960
Yeah it was freakingy fresh.

579
00:25:47.000 --> 00:25:50.440
You know it wasn't. And then the premiere of season

580
00:25:50.480 --> 00:25:53.720
six they did a matrix joke with Cisco. Cisco appeared

581
00:25:53.720 --> 00:25:54.160
on the show.

582
00:25:54.480 --> 00:25:58.079
Yeah that thong, that is exactly right. I don't understand

583
00:25:58.119 --> 00:25:58.759
what your problem is.

584
00:25:58.799 --> 00:26:00.920
It was not good. Be sure to try and finish

585
00:26:01.000 --> 00:26:03.759
that show. So good news is, as of this recording,

586
00:26:03.799 --> 00:26:07.279
Mister Mom is currently available on multiple platforms, one of

587
00:26:07.279 --> 00:26:09.759
which being Pluto Roku two B, so you can find

588
00:26:09.759 --> 00:26:13.400
it pretty easily right now. They also did, several years ago,

589
00:26:13.480 --> 00:26:15.359
put out a shot Factory put out a really cool

590
00:26:15.359 --> 00:26:18.240
blu ray that we watched for our presentation of it

591
00:26:18.279 --> 00:26:20.200
and the print looks really good. It has some bonus

592
00:26:20.200 --> 00:26:22.359
features on it. Can't recommend it enough. So you can

593
00:26:22.440 --> 00:26:25.039
find Mister Mom pretty easily right now. Also you can

594
00:26:25.039 --> 00:26:26.279
find the Voodoo series.

595
00:26:26.920 --> 00:26:30.079
Yeah yeah, because you know, when you're thinking I can't

596
00:26:30.119 --> 00:26:34.319
wait to watch a new series, you're like, step aside, Apple,

597
00:26:35.079 --> 00:26:39.880

598
00:26:39.920 --> 00:26:45.279

599
00:26:45.279 --> 00:26:48.599
of you out of the way, make room for Voodoo,

600
00:26:48.640 --> 00:26:50.039
which is now not even a thing.

601
00:26:50.799 --> 00:26:52.039
It's fan dango at home.

602
00:26:54.160 --> 00:26:55.000
I'm curious.

603
00:26:55.039 --> 00:26:57.000
We're both shocked when we saw a trailer for a

604
00:26:57.039 --> 00:26:59.400
show based on Mister Mom. I may attempt the first

605
00:26:59.400 --> 00:27:02.960
time epsoutely two thousand and seven or was it hang on,

606
00:27:03.079 --> 00:27:06.240
oh boy, he's not prepared. Guys. No, it's okay, it's okay.

607
00:27:06.279 --> 00:27:07.000
We know you're not.

608
00:27:06.880 --> 00:27:08.039
Performing on your tits.

609
00:27:08.119 --> 00:27:08.519
That's all.

610
00:27:09.079 --> 00:27:12.000
Twenty nineteen, twenty September twelfth, twenty nineteen.

611
00:27:12.640 --> 00:27:16.559
WHOA, you'd think we all would have seen it because

612
00:27:16.599 --> 00:27:19.039
we were all desperately watching whatever during the pandemic.

613
00:27:19.119 --> 00:27:22.680
Yet no, yeah, yeah, I may check it out, but

614
00:27:22.759 --> 00:27:25.599
we'll see. So what was your first time seeing mister

615
00:27:25.640 --> 00:27:26.519
Mom Henrique.

616
00:27:26.720 --> 00:27:32.160
So in my early to late twenties, I had gotten

617
00:27:32.359 --> 00:27:35.440
my mid de leate twenties. I mean, I had gotten really,

618
00:27:35.519 --> 00:27:39.839
really into John Hughes movies. I discovered planes Trains around

619
00:27:39.880 --> 00:27:43.440
that time, and I was in the process of writing

620
00:27:43.480 --> 00:27:47.039
my first comedy, which was Depression in the movie, and

621
00:27:47.079 --> 00:27:51.720
I just wanted to distill as much John Hughes as

622
00:27:51.720 --> 00:27:53.720
I could. I mean, I grew up watching Weird Science,

623
00:27:53.880 --> 00:27:56.599
I grew up watching Ferris Buehler, but I hadn't watched

624
00:27:56.759 --> 00:27:59.440
everything he had, Like, Yeah, so I was really digging

625
00:27:59.480 --> 00:28:04.200
into it, and eventually, inevitably I came to mister Mom

626
00:28:04.599 --> 00:28:07.000
as one of his first feature length writing credits that

627
00:28:07.039 --> 00:28:07.960
he did all on his own.

628
00:28:08.079 --> 00:28:08.279
Yeah.

629
00:28:08.799 --> 00:28:12.400
So, I don't even remember how I watched it. I

630
00:28:12.480 --> 00:28:15.160
might have shoot, I might have went to Family Video

631
00:28:15.240 --> 00:28:18.279
or something to rent it. And I remember watching it

632
00:28:18.359 --> 00:28:22.480
and really enjoying it. It is a very watered down

633
00:28:22.640 --> 00:28:26.799
version of where he was heading as a writer, but

634
00:28:27.799 --> 00:28:32.079
still super super fun and Michael Keaton, of course carries

635
00:28:32.119 --> 00:28:36.559
it very well. The casting is great, the humors handled

636
00:28:36.559 --> 00:28:39.720
pretty damn well. But like I said, it does have

637
00:28:39.799 --> 00:28:42.319
like my only complaint with it is it does feel

638
00:28:42.359 --> 00:28:45.200
kind of watered down because his later films got so

639
00:28:46.000 --> 00:28:52.039
intensely honest, and this one is definitely it dances around that,

640
00:28:52.240 --> 00:28:53.240
but it doesn't go there.

641
00:28:53.319 --> 00:28:55.000
We'll get into it, but I think the last ten

642
00:28:55.039 --> 00:28:57.200
minutes goes very sit comy.

643
00:28:58.319 --> 00:29:02.519
Who you calling it comy? Is it? The Red Glasses?

644
00:29:02.559 --> 00:29:09.039
The red glasses? God? Would you like to know my

645
00:29:09.079 --> 00:29:09.519
first time?

646
00:29:09.720 --> 00:29:10.319
Absolutely?

647
00:29:10.440 --> 00:29:10.519
Not?

648
00:29:10.799 --> 00:29:13.319
All right, So moving on, we're gonna talk about I'll

649
00:29:13.319 --> 00:29:14.680
always know what you did last summer.

650
00:29:15.039 --> 00:29:15.680
Okay, go on.

651
00:29:15.799 --> 00:29:18.799
D So, like I said earlier, this is one that

652
00:29:18.880 --> 00:29:21.119
my parents. My parents did enjoy, so anytime it was

653
00:29:21.160 --> 00:29:23.079
on TV and they caught it, they would usually turn

654
00:29:23.119 --> 00:29:26.279
it on and I would watch it. But it wasn't

655
00:29:26.400 --> 00:29:28.319
one that I really paid much attention to. Like I

656
00:29:28.680 --> 00:29:30.880
knew Michael Keaton at that time because a batman, and

657
00:29:30.960 --> 00:29:32.039
you know, I liked Michael Keaton.

658
00:29:32.079 --> 00:29:32.799
He went to school with him.

659
00:29:32.839 --> 00:29:35.079
When I went to school with him, I learned how

660
00:29:35.119 --> 00:29:35.880
to be a batman.

661
00:29:36.240 --> 00:29:40.200
Oh that's important. But didn't teach you how to get nuts.

662
00:29:40.200 --> 00:29:42.039
He did not teach you how to get nuts.

663
00:29:42.079 --> 00:29:42.720
That's a shame.

664
00:29:43.000 --> 00:29:47.880
But no, I didn't really find it myself until probably

665
00:29:47.920 --> 00:29:50.000
about six or seven years ago, which I think I

666
00:29:50.039 --> 00:29:52.519
got like some cheap DVD at like game Swap, I think,

667
00:29:52.759 --> 00:29:54.480
and I know it was an extra rental. I remember that,

668
00:29:54.720 --> 00:29:56.480
and I took it home and watched it, and I

669
00:29:56.519 --> 00:29:59.759
remember just really really liking it. And then you some

670
00:30:00.039 --> 00:30:02.559
time ago got your Blu ray and also spoke about it,

671
00:30:02.599 --> 00:30:03.759
and it made me kind of want to go back

672
00:30:03.759 --> 00:30:05.599
and watch it. So then when we got the option

673
00:30:05.680 --> 00:30:07.960
for the show, I was just like, Yeah, that's that's

674
00:30:08.000 --> 00:30:11.440
a good idea. So rewatching it this time it probably

675
00:30:11.480 --> 00:30:13.640
held up the best it ever has for me so far. Okay,

676
00:30:13.799 --> 00:30:15.160
so I think it really hit for me this time.

677
00:30:15.160 --> 00:30:17.680
But I've always enjoyed it, but this time, especially, which

678
00:30:17.680 --> 00:30:20.119
I'll get into it, I really did enjoy it this time.

679
00:30:20.319 --> 00:30:21.480
I mean I got a kick out of it.

680
00:30:21.519 --> 00:30:23.119
I always have, but I will say the thing I

681
00:30:23.160 --> 00:30:27.200
forgot was I forgot just how massive Martin Mole's character

682
00:30:27.400 --> 00:30:28.000
was in the film.

683
00:30:28.160 --> 00:30:29.480
So that really was a good pick.

684
00:30:29.559 --> 00:30:33.160
Yeah, No, he's this is I like this Clue and

685
00:30:33.240 --> 00:30:34.920
a couple others I can think of really have a

686
00:30:34.960 --> 00:30:37.200
good role for him. Whereas we're going to talk about

687
00:30:37.200 --> 00:30:39.039
as we get through the series, he's a lot of

688
00:30:39.079 --> 00:30:40.519
side characters more so than anything.

689
00:30:40.599 --> 00:30:43.359
Oh god, yeah, yeah, I mean that's Martin Moule was

690
00:30:43.400 --> 00:30:46.240
always that guy and that thing, which is kind of

691
00:30:46.240 --> 00:30:48.079
the way people like to describe character actor.

692
00:30:48.240 --> 00:30:50.000
Did you ever see the because one of the things

693
00:30:50.000 --> 00:30:53.519
I remember about mister Mom getting into my zeitgeist when

694
00:30:53.519 --> 00:30:55.480
I was young was a Pizza Hut did a promotion

695
00:30:55.680 --> 00:30:58.599
that was like four free movies that they had. One

696
00:30:58.640 --> 00:31:00.960
was Mister Mom, one was Dropped Dead Fred, and I

697
00:31:00.960 --> 00:31:03.359
can't remember what the other two were, but the commercial

698
00:31:03.400 --> 00:31:04.240
had Martin maull.

699
00:31:04.160 --> 00:31:05.599
In It was a Pizza Hut.

700
00:31:05.640 --> 00:31:07.039
Yeah, I want to say it was Pizza Hut. And

701
00:31:07.200 --> 00:31:09.119
this Pizza Hut guy comes to the door and he's like, hey,

702
00:31:09.160 --> 00:31:10.720
I got your pizza and your free copy of Mister

703
00:31:10.759 --> 00:31:14.000
Mall starring Michael Keaton and mister Yeah, the great mister

704
00:31:14.559 --> 00:31:17.039
mister Mall. And and he's like and Martin Mall's like, oh,

705
00:31:17.079 --> 00:31:18.680
you know Martin maull He's like, oh yeah, he was

706
00:31:18.720 --> 00:31:21.200
so good as the is the greedy, obsessive boss blah

707
00:31:21.240 --> 00:31:23.839
blah blah blah. And I remember that commercial be just

708
00:31:23.880 --> 00:31:24.759
being really funny.

709
00:31:25.279 --> 00:31:28.720
Hmmm. I'm trying to find it, but I'm not having

710
00:31:28.759 --> 00:31:29.599
a whole lot of luck.

711
00:31:30.079 --> 00:31:31.759
Yeah, I can't remember. I want to say it would

712
00:31:31.759 --> 00:31:33.400
have been it would have had been like early two

713
00:31:33.400 --> 00:31:34.559
thousands or so, because.

714
00:31:34.359 --> 00:31:36.960
Oh wow, I'm finding Martin wall Pizza Hut commercials from

715
00:31:37.000 --> 00:31:37.880
nineteen eighty five.

716
00:31:37.960 --> 00:31:41.000
Oh wow. Yeah, but yeah, I remember that being a promotion.

717
00:31:41.039 --> 00:31:43.519
So that's also kind of brought it into into my mindset.

718
00:31:43.640 --> 00:31:47.720
So that was that was one that I really was

719
00:31:47.759 --> 00:31:49.759
happy to find later on in my life.

720
00:31:51.400 --> 00:32:02.160
Do You Even Movie will be right back. Welcome back

721
00:32:02.240 --> 00:32:03.440
to Do You Even?

722
00:32:03.559 --> 00:32:05.359
Movie?

723
00:32:07.680 --> 00:32:12.160
So are you ready to get into mister mom? Yeah,

724
00:32:12.200 --> 00:32:13.920
all right, let's do it. So we open with a

725
00:32:13.960 --> 00:32:16.240
shot of a beautiful suburban house. We are in Detroit,

726
00:32:16.440 --> 00:32:19.240
and we cut inside as we meet Carolyn Butler as

727
00:32:19.279 --> 00:32:21.119
she is getting ready for the day. She's getting Jack

728
00:32:21.160 --> 00:32:23.039
Butler up, she's getting her kids up. So we meet

729
00:32:23.079 --> 00:32:25.799
Alex and Kenny, which are our two sons. Alex is told,

730
00:32:25.839 --> 00:32:28.519
you know, not to mess with his brother, especially Kenny's woobe,

731
00:32:28.519 --> 00:32:30.880
which is this blanket he carries around. So naturally, the

732
00:32:30.880 --> 00:32:32.359
first thing Alex does is get out of the bed

733
00:32:32.400 --> 00:32:33.960
and start tugging on Kenny's feet.

734
00:32:34.079 --> 00:32:35.440
Well, yeah, what else he's supposed to do.

735
00:32:35.680 --> 00:32:37.720
So we also find out they have a little baby

736
00:32:37.720 --> 00:32:40.200
girl named Meghan. As we see Carolyn getting her ready,

737
00:32:40.400 --> 00:32:43.000
Jack also readies himself for the workday and he sits down.

738
00:32:43.279 --> 00:32:45.279
He's sharing a joke with his kids, which they can

739
00:32:45.319 --> 00:32:47.119
call the Joke a Mile Away, which I can't remember

740
00:32:47.200 --> 00:32:50.200
the exact joke, but it's something about a pickle. Uh oh, yeah,

741
00:32:50.200 --> 00:32:52.000
I can't remember the exact joke. But one of my

742
00:32:52.079 --> 00:32:54.599
favorite bits at this point is he takes Meghan's bottle

743
00:32:54.640 --> 00:32:56.759
and puts the milk into his coffee.

744
00:32:56.880 --> 00:32:59.799
Yeah. No, I like that. He does it so casually too.

745
00:33:00.400 --> 00:33:03.200
So then we see that he kisses Carolyn goodbye. He

746
00:33:03.200 --> 00:33:05.119
goes out to join his coworkers and his boss in

747
00:33:05.160 --> 00:33:06.920
the car as they drive to work, and we find

748
00:33:06.920 --> 00:33:09.039
that Jack works at the Ford Motor Company.

749
00:33:09.720 --> 00:33:10.480
Damn right, he does.

750
00:33:10.559 --> 00:33:11.559
Yeah, that's it. You found it.

751
00:33:11.839 --> 00:33:14.839
I found it. Apparently it wasn't feeding.

752
00:33:19.400 --> 00:33:21.960
You can't hear it, well, I mean, well they can't

753
00:33:22.000 --> 00:33:24.519
see it anyhow, but yeah, you.

754
00:33:24.480 --> 00:33:26.599
Can find the commercial on YouTube and it's pretty fun.

755
00:33:26.640 --> 00:33:29.440
Yes, search Martin Mall Pizza Hut two thousand and three.

756
00:33:29.920 --> 00:33:31.839
So Jack gets to work, Like I said, we find

757
00:33:31.839 --> 00:33:33.880
out he works at the Ford Motor Company and on

758
00:33:34.000 --> 00:33:36.880
the ride over he's talking with his boss Jinx, which

759
00:33:36.920 --> 00:33:38.799
is play by Jeffrey Tambor. He's also in the car

760
00:33:38.839 --> 00:33:42.519
with Christopher Lloyd, which is another coworker Stan, and they're

761
00:33:42.640 --> 00:33:45.079
kind of suspicious that something's up with the factory. And

762
00:33:45.119 --> 00:33:47.079
this is around the time of the nineteen eighties recession,

763
00:33:47.160 --> 00:33:49.400
so they have reason to be worried.

764
00:33:49.359 --> 00:33:51.680
And on the collapse of the automotive industry.

765
00:33:51.839 --> 00:33:54.359
Yeah, so Jack is talking with his workers and you know,

766
00:33:54.400 --> 00:33:56.119
they're they're you know, have you heard anything about it?

767
00:33:56.119 --> 00:33:57.720
And he's like, hey, I took my wife. We went

768
00:33:57.759 --> 00:33:59.039
to see Rocky of the Night. And of course the

769
00:33:59.039 --> 00:34:00.799
guys are like, well, which Rocky was it? Was it

770
00:34:00.880 --> 00:34:02.400
Rocky one, Rocky two, Rocky three.

771
00:34:02.720 --> 00:34:05.079
Spend most of the time arguing about which Rocky it is.

772
00:34:05.039 --> 00:34:06.799
And Jack's just trying to drive home the point. He's like,

773
00:34:06.799 --> 00:34:08.480
you know, when you're down, you're not necessarily out. And

774
00:34:08.480 --> 00:34:10.119
he's like, oh, you know, you don't forget the Rocky,

775
00:34:10.159 --> 00:34:12.320
you know, just just understand, guys, like, we're gonna stick

776
00:34:12.320 --> 00:34:13.800
through this, We're gonna get to it. That's what he

777
00:34:13.800 --> 00:34:16.280
gets called to. Jinx laid him's office, and that's when

778
00:34:16.280 --> 00:34:19.880
he finds out that Stan and his other coworker have

779
00:34:19.920 --> 00:34:22.400
been let go. But then also Jack finds out he's

780
00:34:22.440 --> 00:34:22.920
been let go.

781
00:34:23.000 --> 00:34:25.679
Is and and the way they play it is very

782
00:34:25.760 --> 00:34:29.400
very good, very funny, very funny. They're all they're all

783
00:34:29.440 --> 00:34:31.039
like fighting, Christopher Voyd is.

784
00:34:30.960 --> 00:34:34.159
Basically, and he calms him down and tells him like,

785
00:34:34.199 --> 00:34:36.639
it's okay, I can't believe you'd fire these guys. He

786
00:34:36.719 --> 00:34:38.840
fired you too, He's like, and me too.

787
00:34:39.039 --> 00:34:42.400
I'm fired, And then he starts attacking Jinks as well.

788
00:34:42.519 --> 00:34:44.639
It's a It's a great way to start the film,

789
00:34:45.039 --> 00:34:48.920
keeping it lighthearted, especially as he gets he gets fired

790
00:34:48.960 --> 00:34:52.119
from his job, laid off, I'm sorry, furloughed.

791
00:34:52.239 --> 00:34:53.760
Yes, And it.

792
00:34:53.760 --> 00:34:56.480
Definitely gives you a kind of a sense of the

793
00:34:56.880 --> 00:34:59.039
humor you're gonna get yeah, which is a kind of

794
00:34:59.159 --> 00:35:04.039
realism slow yeah, Like it's slapsticky, but not beyond the

795
00:35:04.079 --> 00:35:07.119
scope of reality, like nobody's falling down. Four flights of

796
00:35:07.159 --> 00:35:09.519
stairs are getting hit by a full paint can, but

797
00:35:10.320 --> 00:35:12.159
they are like jumping at each other over a table

798
00:35:12.199 --> 00:35:15.440
to strangle each other, or you know, the washing machine

799
00:35:15.440 --> 00:35:16.519
starts spraying water everyone.

800
00:35:16.599 --> 00:35:18.239
Then you gotta stands line. While he's in the office,

801
00:35:18.239 --> 00:35:19.480
he's like, all right, I guess there's just one more

802
00:35:19.480 --> 00:35:21.199
thing to do, claim disability, and he goes for the

803
00:35:21.199 --> 00:35:26.360
window to jump out disability. So that's when Jinx also

804
00:35:26.440 --> 00:35:27.599
was like, hey, you guys, I'll make it right, and

805
00:35:27.639 --> 00:35:30.119
he gives them back their money for the car pooling,

806
00:35:30.519 --> 00:35:33.440
reassures them they're going to bounce back, and that's when

807
00:35:33.639 --> 00:35:35.760
we see them go at it once more. Next we

808
00:35:35.800 --> 00:35:37.599
see Jack and his buddies are driving home from work,

809
00:35:37.639 --> 00:35:39.320
but they're in a cab. They've clearly been to the bar.

810
00:35:39.360 --> 00:35:41.519
They've had a few drinks, and Carolyn is inside with

811
00:35:41.800 --> 00:35:43.960
Alex and Kenny warning them like not to mention the

812
00:35:43.960 --> 00:35:47.079
firing to their father, Yeah, because because even the kids like,

813
00:35:47.119 --> 00:35:48.519
you know, does dad know he's been fired?

814
00:35:49.719 --> 00:35:50.800
Yes, he knows.

815
00:35:51.119 --> 00:35:53.920
So that's when Jack comes in the door, and Kenny

816
00:35:53.960 --> 00:35:55.920
of course can't hold back and he ends up blubbing

817
00:35:55.960 --> 00:35:57.880
about the firing, and Jack's like, you know, hey, don't

818
00:35:57.880 --> 00:36:00.079
worry about it, like everything's gonna be okay, and and

819
00:36:00.880 --> 00:36:02.440
Carolyn's like, you know, well, come on in, I got

820
00:36:02.480 --> 00:36:03.880
the colonel for dinner, and he's like, well, we can't

821
00:36:03.920 --> 00:36:06.119
afford that. So they sit down to a nice dinner

822
00:36:06.199 --> 00:36:08.440
and he tries to convince Carolyn, you know, he feels

823
00:36:08.440 --> 00:36:09.880
great with what everything's going on.

824
00:36:09.920 --> 00:36:10.000
You know.

825
00:36:10.079 --> 00:36:11.599
Yeah, he's been laid off, but he's gonna get some

826
00:36:11.639 --> 00:36:13.840
work done around the house and during his time off.

827
00:36:13.840 --> 00:36:15.719
That's when Carolyn also offers to go back to work

828
00:36:15.760 --> 00:36:17.079
to help with the money situation.

829
00:36:16.760 --> 00:36:18.840
And she offers to look for a job.

830
00:36:19.320 --> 00:36:20.519
To go out on the work.

831
00:36:20.400 --> 00:36:23.599
Force, to which he bets her one hundred dollars to

832
00:36:23.639 --> 00:36:26.039
her wonder to one yes, that he can get a

833
00:36:26.119 --> 00:36:29.079
job before she can get a job. She of course,

834
00:36:29.119 --> 00:36:31.599
has no interest in this competition whatsoever.

835
00:36:31.719 --> 00:36:32.920
He even gets the kids involved.

836
00:36:33.000 --> 00:36:35.079
Yeah, he has them hold on to the money, and

837
00:36:35.119 --> 00:36:39.599
then we smash cut to take the money, take the money. No, no, no, hey,

838
00:36:39.719 --> 00:36:41.639
BET's a bet. I didn't even want the bet. And

839
00:36:41.719 --> 00:36:44.119
now she's got a job. She did reference right before

840
00:36:44.159 --> 00:36:46.159
that that she had a college diploma. Yeah, she had

841
00:36:46.159 --> 00:36:49.119
two years of experience in marketing and some connections.

842
00:36:49.159 --> 00:36:51.239
Yeah, so now she is.

843
00:36:51.199 --> 00:36:54.800
A working lady in the early nineties shoulder pads and

844
00:36:54.880 --> 00:36:58.360
alls what I say, nine nineties, oh eighties, whatever, you know,

845
00:36:58.440 --> 00:37:01.360
what's a show by yourself, right, I'm.

846
00:37:01.519 --> 00:37:04.239
Just you correct me when I do it, I get

847
00:37:04.239 --> 00:37:04.880
to do it to you.

848
00:37:05.039 --> 00:37:06.119
I didn't correct you earlier.

849
00:37:06.400 --> 00:37:09.000
She said, what, mister mal No, No, what was.

850
00:37:09.000 --> 00:37:11.840
The wrong word you said? Uh, it's okay. I'm just

851
00:37:11.840 --> 00:37:14.360
gonna say, I pick one, I don't collect. I don't

852
00:37:14.360 --> 00:37:14.960
correct them all.

853
00:37:15.039 --> 00:37:16.599
Yeah, because I talk so much.

854
00:37:16.719 --> 00:37:21.199
Oh my gosh, guys, Dave's feelings are hurt. Now, let's

855
00:37:21.480 --> 00:37:23.360
remember to write and ask him about his yellow belt.

856
00:37:23.400 --> 00:37:25.800
Oh yeah, I can't. I'm gonna fucking find that theme.

857
00:37:27.480 --> 00:37:29.360
So that's when Carolyn gives him the rundown of the

858
00:37:29.440 --> 00:37:31.840
kid's schedule. It tells him the signs in regards to like,

859
00:37:31.840 --> 00:37:33.960
you know, if Megan does this, that means she wants this.

860
00:37:34.039 --> 00:37:36.039
If Alex or Kenny does this, that means they want this.

861
00:37:36.320 --> 00:37:38.519
So she kisses him by leaves out the door, and

862
00:37:38.559 --> 00:37:40.079
that's when as soon as she leaves, we hear a

863
00:37:40.079 --> 00:37:41.880
storm start and we see the Jack is driving the

864
00:37:41.960 --> 00:37:44.440
kids to school, but he is failing at learning the

865
00:37:44.519 --> 00:37:45.440
drop off points.

866
00:37:45.840 --> 00:37:48.719
Yeah, he he enters through the exit, enters through the

867
00:37:48.719 --> 00:37:51.599
exit in a big roundabout that's in front of the school.

868
00:37:51.639 --> 00:37:53.639
All these cars are hawking at him. The kids are like, Dad,

869
00:37:53.679 --> 00:37:55.920
you're doing it wrong. And even so he pulls up

870
00:37:55.920 --> 00:37:58.199
to this one woman who says her name's a net.

871
00:37:58.199 --> 00:38:00.559
She introduced herself and she's like, you're doing it wrong

872
00:38:01.079 --> 00:38:04.119
and explains that what is it. South is for the more,

873
00:38:04.360 --> 00:38:07.119
south is for drop off and north is for pickup, right,

874
00:38:07.920 --> 00:38:10.719
So that'sbody. That's when she explains it to him. He

875
00:38:10.719 --> 00:38:12.440
says he'll get it right. He even gets scolded by

876
00:38:12.440 --> 00:38:14.840
another mother as he's leaving the parking lot. So at

877
00:38:14.840 --> 00:38:17.159
her new job, Carolyn takes the elevator up to Richardson

878
00:38:17.159 --> 00:38:21.480
Frankel Advertising and that's when she meets Eve, Richardson's secretary,

879
00:38:21.559 --> 00:38:23.880
and she takes her to a board meeting that is

880
00:38:23.920 --> 00:38:26.880
basically just chaos. There's cigarette smoke all throughout the room.

881
00:38:26.920 --> 00:38:29.239
There's pizza boxes on the table, buckets, a chicken on

882
00:38:29.280 --> 00:38:30.880
the table, and everybody's arguing.

883
00:38:31.400 --> 00:38:33.559
I mean, honestly, that sounds like a pretty good tuesday

884
00:38:33.639 --> 00:38:33.800
to me.

885
00:38:34.039 --> 00:38:37.440
Yes, So we meet Ron Richardson played by Martin Maull.

886
00:38:37.679 --> 00:38:40.039
He introduces Carolyn to the group and he asked her

887
00:38:40.039 --> 00:38:42.400
for her opinion on some layouts for a tuna ad

888
00:38:42.400 --> 00:38:46.400
that they're trying to put together, yeah, and schooner tuna.

889
00:38:46.519 --> 00:38:48.280
So she goes over and she's like, you know why,

890
00:38:48.360 --> 00:38:49.880
you know, I'm the last person that you want to ask,

891
00:38:49.960 --> 00:38:51.280
you know, it's my new here. And he's like, hey,

892
00:38:51.280 --> 00:38:52.920
you know, do you eat tuna? You know everything you

893
00:38:52.960 --> 00:38:54.760
need to know, like give us your input, and she

894
00:38:54.880 --> 00:38:57.079
basically says that none of these ads are appealing to women.

895
00:38:57.599 --> 00:39:02.360
Yeah, which I found kind of amusing only because we're

896
00:39:02.400 --> 00:39:07.039
in nineteen eighty two eighty three. And she walks into

897
00:39:07.039 --> 00:39:11.360
this massive marketing firm and says, here's a mind blower.

898
00:39:12.079 --> 00:39:15.199
Women do the grocery shopping, so let's market to women.

899
00:39:18.800 --> 00:39:22.960
That's That's how all marketing from like World War two

900
00:39:23.760 --> 00:39:27.400
to today is. They are aware that a large percentage

901
00:39:27.400 --> 00:39:29.280
of the people of the people who make household purchasing

902
00:39:29.280 --> 00:39:32.800
decisions are women, especially coffee ads. Oh my gosh, I

903
00:39:32.840 --> 00:39:35.960
mean be a good little maxwell house will god, but

904
00:39:36.639 --> 00:39:38.599
pin which I have that pizza ad if you want

905
00:39:38.599 --> 00:39:41.360
me to play it. We can't show the visuals, but

906
00:39:41.400 --> 00:39:45.079
I could play the sound. Maybe we'll see.

907
00:39:45.480 --> 00:39:47.519
You won't believe what pizza Hook's got for you.

908
00:39:47.599 --> 00:39:51.239
Now, pizza with all dogs, go ahead, in two dogs.

909
00:39:53.039 --> 00:40:00.400
I give it to Pasa was also mister Mom and

910
00:40:00.440 --> 00:40:04.079
bus Journey, Yeah, and Honeymoon Magus.

911
00:40:04.079 --> 00:40:08.000
I just saw it, Yeah, mister Mom, Martin mull whatever

912
00:40:08.039 --> 00:40:10.000
happened that guy he's got hungry?

913
00:40:10.199 --> 00:40:12.559
I remember that commercial? Yeah, he got hungry.

914
00:40:12.639 --> 00:40:13.199
You only get it.

915
00:40:13.599 --> 00:40:15.679
There's a longer version, but yeah, I don remember that one.

916
00:40:15.719 --> 00:40:17.880
Well, I'm sorry I didn't find the best one.

917
00:40:17.719 --> 00:40:19.119
Ever, saying there's one where he's here.

918
00:40:19.239 --> 00:40:20.119
He's just excited.

919
00:40:20.159 --> 00:40:21.800
I could pipe it in for you, and now I've

920
00:40:21.800 --> 00:40:23.519
realized that I made a horrible mistake.

921
00:40:23.599 --> 00:40:27.679
I'll leave, thank you. So they're cracking jokes at her

922
00:40:27.760 --> 00:40:29.639
and she's really not impressed. And that's when we see

923
00:40:29.719 --> 00:40:31.840
Jack is now at the grocery store with Megan and Kenny,

924
00:40:32.199 --> 00:40:34.639
and he's clearly out of his element. He's making a mess,

925
00:40:34.679 --> 00:40:37.360
running into cans, spilling stuff. And what's funny is they

926
00:40:37.400 --> 00:40:40.079
keep having this woman call out clean up on Aisle

927
00:40:40.159 --> 00:40:41.719
such and such, and then the PA will call out

928
00:40:41.760 --> 00:40:44.639
the cleanup and he's struggling at the deli counter. He

929
00:40:44.639 --> 00:40:46.679
doesn't realize the options he has, Like he's like, you know, okay,

930
00:40:46.719 --> 00:40:48.119
I'll take a I'll take a pound of ham, and

931
00:40:48.119 --> 00:40:49.840
she's like, would that be such and such and such

932
00:40:49.840 --> 00:40:51.840
and such, like all the options. All right, how about

933
00:40:51.840 --> 00:40:53.800
some cheese? He swims American.

934
00:40:54.400 --> 00:40:57.880
He gets overloaded with decision fatigue. Yeah, he just doesn't

935
00:40:57.960 --> 00:41:01.320
understand how to handle the grocery store. It's played up

936
00:41:01.400 --> 00:41:03.679
quite a bit, but I love that one where she

937
00:41:03.760 --> 00:41:05.840
just names all the different cheese. She's like, let alone

938
00:41:05.920 --> 00:41:07.119
all the cheddars.

939
00:41:06.719 --> 00:41:08.800
And the woman behind him like, just get some baloney.

940
00:41:08.880 --> 00:41:10.119
Yeah, just get some maloney.

941
00:41:10.480 --> 00:41:12.960
So while he's checking out, Jack also realizes that there's

942
00:41:12.960 --> 00:41:14.719
been a mix up with Kenny. Kenny is no longer

943
00:41:14.719 --> 00:41:16.960
at the car, it's another kid. And he finds out

944
00:41:16.960 --> 00:41:18.719
that Kenny is with another woman. So he trades the

945
00:41:18.760 --> 00:41:20.599
kid back and the woman's like, well I don't have kids.

946
00:41:20.679 --> 00:41:22.639
Yeah, he put the kid in a cart, and then

947
00:41:22.679 --> 00:41:24.840
it turns out that was not her kid either.

948
00:41:24.920 --> 00:41:26.440
Oh we also miss. One of the best things is

949
00:41:26.599 --> 00:41:29.239
he grabs a box of cotext and yeah, she goes

950
00:41:29.280 --> 00:41:30.760
to scan the cotext. She's like, oh, I think this

951
00:41:30.760 --> 00:41:31.840
is are on sound and he's like, oh no, no,

952
00:41:31.840 --> 00:41:33.599
it's fine. So then she calls to the cotext. They're

953
00:41:33.639 --> 00:41:36.840
nineteen cents off, and that's when he also realizes when

954
00:41:36.880 --> 00:41:38.599
he gets back to the counter that now Megan is

955
00:41:38.599 --> 00:41:39.280
also missing.

956
00:41:39.559 --> 00:41:41.719
I mean, I I've gotta say, I don't know if

957
00:41:41.760 --> 00:41:46.559
I understand the methodology or the mindset of being embarrassed

958
00:41:46.559 --> 00:41:50.159
at getting Maxi pads for your wife when you're in

959
00:41:50.199 --> 00:41:52.280
the store with two kids. Yeah, it's like, you know,

960
00:41:52.320 --> 00:41:53.800
you're like, no, no, no, I want everybody to think my

961
00:41:53.840 --> 00:41:54.400
wife is dead.

962
00:41:56.719 --> 00:41:59.360
Like otherwise, like obviously if you're buying them, it's not

963
00:41:59.400 --> 00:42:03.280
like they're for you or something. Yeah, you're you're literally

964
00:42:03.320 --> 00:42:05.880
there with your children. Clearly there's a woman in the household.

965
00:42:06.280 --> 00:42:08.400
Very likely. Uh, but it was.

966
00:42:08.639 --> 00:42:11.440
It was very funny and very indicative of the nineteen eighties,

967
00:42:11.480 --> 00:42:14.880
the whole like absolute fear of anything, menstruation.

968
00:42:14.559 --> 00:42:17.360
And naturally with it being a huge project. Edy mcclug

969
00:42:17.440 --> 00:42:20.760
is the checkout woman, of course, so that's when he

970
00:42:20.800 --> 00:42:22.840
finds out Megan's missing. So he goes to find her,

971
00:42:22.880 --> 00:42:25.119
and he runs into one of Carolyn's friend Joan, who

972
00:42:25.239 --> 00:42:28.400
is holding her offers her help to him with shopping sitters,

973
00:42:28.519 --> 00:42:30.760
menus and even if he just wants to talk, even

974
00:42:30.800 --> 00:42:34.400
giving her her number, which says any time at the bottom.

975
00:42:34.239 --> 00:42:35.000
Yeah it does.

976
00:42:35.239 --> 00:42:37.480
Yeah, she lays it on so thick it may as

977
00:42:37.519 --> 00:42:39.320
well be delicious, receives peanut butter.

978
00:42:39.760 --> 00:42:42.480
And that's also when Jack decides to just completely bail

979
00:42:42.519 --> 00:42:44.559
out of the parking lot, backs into some carts and

980
00:42:44.639 --> 00:42:48.239
speeds off from Joan. So that's when later that night,

981
00:42:48.280 --> 00:42:50.760
Carolyn arrives home. She finds Jack giving the kids a bath.

982
00:42:51.000 --> 00:42:53.000
She says that her day was terrible, and we also

983
00:42:53.159 --> 00:42:55.159
see that Jack has put Alex in the tub wearing

984
00:42:55.159 --> 00:42:55.760
his slippers.

985
00:42:56.000 --> 00:42:57.599
Well, he didn't want his feet to get we I want.

986
00:42:57.519 --> 00:42:59.519
His feet to get wet. So the next morning, Ron

987
00:42:59.519 --> 00:43:01.519
says to Len to pick up Carolyn. He comes to

988
00:43:01.559 --> 00:43:04.440
the door and Jack sees that he is outside and

989
00:43:04.480 --> 00:43:06.079
he's like, I'll crap in my bathrobe. So we see

990
00:43:06.119 --> 00:43:08.320
him run off. When Ron comes to the door, Alex

991
00:43:08.400 --> 00:43:10.840
is now at the door holding a rifle and greets

992
00:43:10.920 --> 00:43:12.760
him and he says, I gotta go get my dad.

993
00:43:13.119 --> 00:43:17.199
Jack then enters with a chainsaw, goggles and overalls, revving

994
00:43:17.239 --> 00:43:19.360
the chainsaw, causing Ron to kind of go to the

995
00:43:19.400 --> 00:43:20.320
side of the steps.

996
00:43:20.599 --> 00:43:21.239
Yeah.

997
00:43:21.360 --> 00:43:26.079
Now, the way they depict the absolute familial chaos, yeah,

998
00:43:26.239 --> 00:43:30.639
is very fun, and again it's a very realistic slapstick. Yeah,

999
00:43:30.719 --> 00:43:34.079
it's not so over exaggerated that it couldn't happen in

1000
00:43:34.119 --> 00:43:34.599
real life.

1001
00:43:35.159 --> 00:43:36.920
It's just a little too silly.

1002
00:43:37.039 --> 00:43:39.320
Yeah, and you want to talk about Keaton getting nuts,

1003
00:43:39.320 --> 00:43:41.159
he has that look as he's just revving the chainsaw

1004
00:43:41.159 --> 00:43:44.199
approaching Ron too. It's so good. So that's when he

1005
00:43:44.239 --> 00:43:46.280
greets Ron, offering him a beer, and Ron's like, oh,

1006
00:43:46.280 --> 00:43:48.519
it's seven in the morning, and he's like, oh Scotch.

1007
00:43:48.559 --> 00:43:50.119
And Ron's like, oh, you know, I can't drink on

1008
00:43:50.119 --> 00:43:53.760
the workday. Oh, sorry, big guy. So that's when he

1009
00:43:53.840 --> 00:43:55.920
also shows Ron. He's like, hey, come on over here.

1010
00:43:56.119 --> 00:43:57.679
You know, I'm gonna take out these walls. He gonna

1011
00:43:57.679 --> 00:43:58.960
do a whole new wing on the house. And he's like, oh,

1012
00:43:58.960 --> 00:44:01.360
what are you gonna do? Two He's like, oh, twenty two,

1013
00:44:01.400 --> 00:44:03.599
twenty one whatever. It takes one of the most memorable

1014
00:44:03.599 --> 00:44:07.719
lines of the movie. So Carolyn comes down joins them,

1015
00:44:07.840 --> 00:44:10.440
and that's when her and Ron leave and Jack says, hey, honey,

1016
00:44:10.480 --> 00:44:12.079
if you call the house, I'm not home. I'm either

1017
00:44:12.119 --> 00:44:13.440
at the gym or the gun club.

1018
00:44:14.519 --> 00:44:17.320
Yeah, he's definitely laying it on thick that his manhood

1019
00:44:17.440 --> 00:44:19.800
is quite challenged, quite challenged.

1020
00:44:19.880 --> 00:44:22.280
Yes. So we see Ron and Carolyn flying on his

1021
00:44:22.320 --> 00:44:25.480
private plane, enjoying some champagne and lunch, and Ron questions,

1022
00:44:25.480 --> 00:44:27.199
you know, hey, you know this job has some long,

1023
00:44:27.199 --> 00:44:28.760
hard hours. You know, if that's gonna be a problem

1024
00:44:28.800 --> 00:44:30.599
with your husband, you know, just tell me and I'll

1025
00:44:30.639 --> 00:44:32.480
take care of it. So we can already see it.

1026
00:44:33.159 --> 00:44:37.719
Ron is Ron schmoozing Carolyn over this just a bit.

1027
00:44:37.800 --> 00:44:40.079
A little bit, just a bit, just a snidgeon.

1028
00:44:40.360 --> 00:44:42.559
Well she also we did forget to mention that Carolyn

1029
00:44:42.599 --> 00:44:44.760
when she initially goes into the board meeting for the

1030
00:44:44.760 --> 00:44:48.119
first time, that Eve Ron secretary is like, oh, mister Richardson.

1031
00:44:48.159 --> 00:44:50.159
He's like, oh, well he told me to call him Ron.

1032
00:44:50.239 --> 00:44:55.119
When was that on my interview? Over lunch? So back

1033
00:44:55.119 --> 00:44:56.800
at the house, we see Jack and the kids are

1034
00:44:56.840 --> 00:44:59.719
gathering all the laundry and they are stuffing it into

1035
00:44:59.719 --> 00:45:01.639
the worl washer. And when I say stuffing into the washer,

1036
00:45:01.800 --> 00:45:03.119
the door can barely close.

1037
00:45:03.880 --> 00:45:05.239
And that's how you're supposed to do it.

1038
00:45:07.159 --> 00:45:17.960
Do You Even? Movie will be right back, welcome back

1039
00:45:18.000 --> 00:45:19.239
to Do You Even?

1040
00:45:19.360 --> 00:45:21.119
Movie?

1041
00:45:23.519 --> 00:45:26.119
And that's when we see Jack make a concoction of

1042
00:45:26.760 --> 00:45:28.320
tied God.

1043
00:45:28.400 --> 00:45:33.320
I mean, there's powdered detergent, liquid detergent, fabric, fabric softener.

1044
00:45:33.000 --> 00:45:35.000
Window cleaner. At one point he's.

1045
00:45:34.599 --> 00:45:37.320
Pulling it all into a big cup and stirs it

1046
00:45:37.400 --> 00:45:41.159
with a with a screwdriver and puts it in the

1047
00:45:41.320 --> 00:45:43.960
washing machine, which I feel like is.

1048
00:45:44.199 --> 00:45:44.760
The way to go.

1049
00:45:45.000 --> 00:45:47.119
I mean, we immediately see it sutting up and also

1050
00:45:47.119 --> 00:45:47.679
at least.

1051
00:45:47.519 --> 00:45:49.320
Five pounds of soap if you want to get your

1052
00:45:49.320 --> 00:45:52.480
clothes clean. This is true, not just clean, but zestfully clean.

1053
00:45:52.559 --> 00:45:57.000
And a phone party at that too. So that's when

1054
00:45:57.039 --> 00:45:59.280
we also see a TV repairman, a pure woman is

1055
00:45:59.280 --> 00:46:01.880
showing up. Meghan accidentally knocks over a plan as she's

1056
00:46:01.880 --> 00:46:04.199
wondering around the house. Then we find the kids are

1057
00:46:04.239 --> 00:46:06.239
making chili in the kitchen. He asked the kids where

1058
00:46:06.280 --> 00:46:07.960
the vacuum cleaner are, and that's when Alex is like,

1059
00:46:08.000 --> 00:46:09.800
you mean Jaws, And he's like, your mom calls the

1060
00:46:09.880 --> 00:46:10.840
vacuum cleaner Jaws.

1061
00:46:11.719 --> 00:46:14.480
That's when because he finds out that the vacuum cleaner

1062
00:46:14.519 --> 00:46:15.440
has a bit of a mind.

1063
00:46:15.280 --> 00:46:15.679
Of its own.

1064
00:46:15.800 --> 00:46:18.440
Yes, it just tries to eat whatever it can get

1065
00:46:18.440 --> 00:46:19.960
itself onto in its path.

1066
00:46:20.039 --> 00:46:22.559
So he plugs Jaws in Jaws starts going to work.

1067
00:46:22.719 --> 00:46:25.239
An exterminator then shows up the house. Jaws claims the

1068
00:46:25.280 --> 00:46:28.639
curtains from the rod. Another repairman shows up to work

1069
00:46:28.679 --> 00:46:31.280
on the water heater, while we see the exterminator downstairs

1070
00:46:31.320 --> 00:46:33.519
off deathly afraid of the washer as he's backing it

1071
00:46:33.599 --> 00:46:34.400
back up the steps.

1072
00:46:34.480 --> 00:46:34.800
Yeah.

1073
00:46:34.960 --> 00:46:38.079
No, the exterminator is one of my favorite little characters

1074
00:46:38.079 --> 00:46:40.719
in this movie. Yeah, because there every time he's on screen,

1075
00:46:40.800 --> 00:46:41.679
there's some kind.

1076
00:46:41.519 --> 00:46:42.480
Of a weird little joke.

1077
00:46:42.559 --> 00:46:42.760
Yeah.

1078
00:46:42.880 --> 00:46:44.800
He always like, I'm gonna check your basement of a bugs,

1079
00:46:45.199 --> 00:46:49.800
hope i'll find any It's good stuff, It's really good.

1080
00:46:50.159 --> 00:46:51.880
So the chili starts to burn on the stove. The

1081
00:46:51.880 --> 00:46:54.800
wet sets off the smoke detectors. Jaws is moving on

1082
00:46:54.840 --> 00:46:57.719
its own, making its way towards Kenny downstairs. The washer

1083
00:46:57.800 --> 00:46:59.920
breaks free from the walls, so now there's hoses spray

1084
00:47:00.079 --> 00:47:02.719
all over down the basement. The kids are calling for help.

1085
00:47:02.800 --> 00:47:05.360
Jack goes down fights the detached hoses as Kenny calls

1086
00:47:05.400 --> 00:47:08.079
for his dad. He runs up upstairs because Kenny's woobee

1087
00:47:08.119 --> 00:47:10.039
is now stuck in Jaws, so he tells him to

1088
00:47:10.079 --> 00:47:12.360
run as he just disassembles the vacuum, jumping on it

1089
00:47:12.400 --> 00:47:13.000
and beating it.

1090
00:47:13.159 --> 00:47:16.760
Yeah, he basically kills the vacuum cleaner, eats it to death.

1091
00:47:17.079 --> 00:47:21.199
Seeing this, all three repair people leave the house just simultaneously.

1092
00:47:21.320 --> 00:47:23.559
They're running into their cars. They all, like true, almost

1093
00:47:23.599 --> 00:47:25.920
drive into each other as they're driving away, and that's

1094
00:47:25.920 --> 00:47:28.559
when Jack changes Megan, and because we see at one

1095
00:47:28.559 --> 00:47:31.599
point Megan has accidentally gotten a can of chili, which

1096
00:47:31.639 --> 00:47:34.599
she has eaten, and the repair woman's like, you can't

1097
00:47:34.599 --> 00:47:36.960
give a kid chili, And Jack finds it out the

1098
00:47:36.960 --> 00:47:39.159
hard way because the next scene he has clothes pins

1099
00:47:39.199 --> 00:47:41.079
on both sides of his noses as he has a

1100
00:47:41.159 --> 00:47:43.440
full trash bag and he's like, where does mommy keep

1101
00:47:43.480 --> 00:47:44.320
the extra diapers?

1102
00:47:44.760 --> 00:47:49.199
And the kids all run away, to which he responds cowards.

1103
00:47:49.719 --> 00:47:52.440
So that's when Carolyn returns home that night. She finds

1104
00:47:52.519 --> 00:47:54.519
Jack on the couch really cutely asleep with the kids

1105
00:47:54.559 --> 00:47:56.960
on top of them, and Carolyn and Jack are next

1106
00:47:57.000 --> 00:47:59.440
in the car with the kids excuse. The next day,

1107
00:47:59.440 --> 00:48:01.519
we see Jack is going to an interview with two

1108
00:48:01.519 --> 00:48:03.400
guys in the waiting area and they tell him, how

1109
00:48:03.480 --> 00:48:05.039
you know you go ahead of me because you know

1110
00:48:05.039 --> 00:48:06.960
there's no jobs available in this city and they and

1111
00:48:07.000 --> 00:48:08.480
they both cracked jokes at that point too.

1112
00:48:09.199 --> 00:48:13.679
I mean that scene was kind of sad. It was sad.

1113
00:48:13.880 --> 00:48:16.559
He just sees two guys who are his future as

1114
00:48:16.559 --> 00:48:22.400
they're both broken and basically resigned to a life of domestic.

1115
00:48:21.880 --> 00:48:23.360
Bliss exchanging a recipe too.

1116
00:48:23.400 --> 00:48:26.159
Yeah, they're literally exchanging recipes so much, and they're so

1117
00:48:26.280 --> 00:48:28.440
interested in the recipe that they're willing to just go

1118
00:48:28.480 --> 00:48:29.760
oh you go ahead in the line.

1119
00:48:29.840 --> 00:48:30.079
Yeah.

1120
00:48:30.079 --> 00:48:33.079
But also, there's no jobs in the city, so who cares.

1121
00:48:33.199 --> 00:48:34.960
So next we see Carolyn Jacker in the car with

1122
00:48:35.000 --> 00:48:36.920
the kids, and Carolyn begs him to do this thing

1123
00:48:36.960 --> 00:48:39.519
for her because you know, she did these things for

1124
00:48:39.599 --> 00:48:41.239
him when he wanted them. And we find out that

1125
00:48:41.239 --> 00:48:46.079
they're going to Ron's estate because he's hosting a corporate Olympics,

1126
00:48:47.199 --> 00:48:48.760
which I've never heard of, to be honest.

1127
00:48:48.679 --> 00:48:52.199
I mean, yeah, a corporate obstacle course basically basically.

1128
00:48:52.679 --> 00:48:55.079
So that's when Ron encourages Jack to join the Olympics.

1129
00:48:55.119 --> 00:48:57.079
But Jack lies because they agreed on the way there

1130
00:48:57.079 --> 00:48:58.840
that they were going to stay fifteen minutes mes and

1131
00:48:58.880 --> 00:49:01.960
then they were going to leave. Excuse me, no excuse,

1132
00:49:02.320 --> 00:49:04.840
And that's when Ron is like, hey, you know, Jack,

1133
00:49:04.840 --> 00:49:06.519
you should compete, and he's like, oh, well we can't.

1134
00:49:06.559 --> 00:49:09.719
You know, Carolyn's aunt Emily is sick and Carolyn's like

1135
00:49:09.760 --> 00:49:14.000
dying story and that's when I think Alex is like,

1136
00:49:14.039 --> 00:49:18.800
oh she's dead. So Jack eventually breaks down. He has

1137
00:49:18.840 --> 00:49:21.199
the kids go grab his athletic closed from the car,

1138
00:49:21.400 --> 00:49:23.480
and that's when he's informed that, you know, since it's

1139
00:49:23.559 --> 00:49:26.000
Ron's tournament, they have to let the boss win because

1140
00:49:26.000 --> 00:49:28.639
he's ready to compete. He's ready to tear this competition down.

1141
00:49:28.840 --> 00:49:31.280
Of course, his response is, he's not my boss. Not

1142
00:49:31.320 --> 00:49:33.079
my boss, you laze your wife's boss.

1143
00:49:33.440 --> 00:49:35.159
So we see a race take place as the men

1144
00:49:35.199 --> 00:49:38.639
all wear scuba I said slippers, but that's not the word.

1145
00:49:38.960 --> 00:49:42.440
No, they're fins, fins, thank you, they're swimming fins, swimming fins, and.

1146
00:49:42.400 --> 00:49:44.599
They run a race. Jack is out first and he

1147
00:49:44.639 --> 00:49:46.719
wins the first run inches out to the obstacle course

1148
00:49:46.760 --> 00:49:49.320
with Ron just ahead of him. We see multiple guys

1149
00:49:49.320 --> 00:49:51.360
at one point just trying to hold Jack back, like

1150
00:49:51.360 --> 00:49:53.239
they're grabbing onto his legs, trying to make him fall

1151
00:49:53.280 --> 00:49:54.639
because they cannot let him win.

1152
00:49:54.760 --> 00:49:57.199
Yeah, they're desperately trying to keep him from one upping

1153
00:49:57.280 --> 00:50:00.280
the Boss and potentially causing all of them a lot

1154
00:50:00.280 --> 00:50:00.679
of trouble.

1155
00:50:00.760 --> 00:50:03.280
Yeah, so Jack keeps neck and neck with Ron, but regardless,

1156
00:50:03.280 --> 00:50:05.920
at the last second, catching his wife's eyes, he decides

1157
00:50:05.960 --> 00:50:07.840
to go down. He lets Ron take the finish and

1158
00:50:07.880 --> 00:50:10.119
he wins. Carolyn thanks him for taking the win as

1159
00:50:10.159 --> 00:50:12.239
she watches Ron celebrate as he's lifted up onto the

1160
00:50:12.280 --> 00:50:13.440
shoulders of his coworkers.

1161
00:50:14.880 --> 00:50:16.679
I mean, what a beautiful moment in sports.

1162
00:50:16.880 --> 00:50:19.000
So the next morning we see Jack now with a

1163
00:50:19.039 --> 00:50:21.239
full beard, watch Carolyn drive off for work, and we

1164
00:50:21.280 --> 00:50:24.599
see Jack gathering laundry and mocking daytime soap. He's like,

1165
00:50:24.599 --> 00:50:26.440
you know who watches these things? But what's funny is

1166
00:50:26.599 --> 00:50:28.800
he's got the TV placed all around the house so

1167
00:50:28.840 --> 00:50:30.239
he can watch it he's doing his chores.

1168
00:50:30.280 --> 00:50:33.440
Yeah, yeah, he has a little TV set when he's ironing,

1169
00:50:33.480 --> 00:50:35.519
when he's doing laundry, whatever he's doing.

1170
00:50:35.679 --> 00:50:38.239
And then that's when we see him next enjoying the soap,

1171
00:50:38.400 --> 00:50:40.480
enjoying a beard, and he knows exactly what's going on

1172
00:50:40.519 --> 00:50:42.199
the show. He's talking back to the show, you know,

1173
00:50:42.239 --> 00:50:44.480
saying all these things that they're predicting. And next he's

1174
00:50:44.519 --> 00:50:47.159
in the kitchen doing laundry, ironing, and still watching the

1175
00:50:47.159 --> 00:50:47.679
soap opera?

1176
00:50:47.880 --> 00:50:49.960
Was that the point where the phone rang too, Yeah,

1177
00:50:49.960 --> 00:50:53.599
and it's somebody it's He starts talking to her about

1178
00:50:53.639 --> 00:50:56.320
the soap op. Yeah, and they start arguing about who's

1179
00:50:56.400 --> 00:50:58.599
behind some plot development.

1180
00:50:58.719 --> 00:51:00.679
And that's also a great point because as Alex comes in,

1181
00:51:00.719 --> 00:51:02.679
he's like, my girl cheese, doesn't have the cheese melted,

1182
00:51:02.719 --> 00:51:04.679
And of course he's doing, you know, ironing, so he

1183
00:51:04.719 --> 00:51:06.960
just puts the krilled cheese on the table, irons it

1184
00:51:07.000 --> 00:51:08.159
and hands it back to Alex.

1185
00:51:08.320 --> 00:51:09.679
Hey, I mean it works.

1186
00:51:09.719 --> 00:51:14.400
And you know, oddly enough, irons like that you iron

1187
00:51:14.480 --> 00:51:16.320
your clothes with They have a nonstick coating on the

1188
00:51:16.440 --> 00:51:18.199
da So if they didn't want us to cook with them,

1189
00:51:18.320 --> 00:51:19.320
they shouldn't have done that.

1190
00:51:19.440 --> 00:51:20.800
Have you made a girl cheese when iron?

1191
00:51:21.519 --> 00:51:21.679
No?

1192
00:51:21.960 --> 00:51:23.960
Okay, I just thought there might be a story.

1193
00:51:24.239 --> 00:51:27.679
Uh no, when when I'm at a hotel, the last

1194
00:51:27.679 --> 00:51:28.960
thing I want to do is work.

1195
00:51:29.159 --> 00:51:32.119
I'm not gonna cook in the room, are you kidding?

1196
00:51:32.599 --> 00:51:34.719
We should also mention here at this point that Kenny

1197
00:51:34.719 --> 00:51:37.840
brings his wooby in, which is looking more and more

1198
00:51:37.960 --> 00:51:40.239
worn out by the time, so Jack actually staples it

1199
00:51:40.280 --> 00:51:42.400
at this point, so he gets a call from Joan

1200
00:51:42.400 --> 00:51:44.400
and they discussed the soaps. He forgets about the iron,

1201
00:51:44.440 --> 00:51:46.719
and the iron starts burning. Also, the popcorn machine that

1202
00:51:46.719 --> 00:51:49.400
he had put popcorn into just starts spraying everywhere. So

1203
00:51:49.440 --> 00:51:51.800
he grabs Alex's plastic sword and just starts beating the

1204
00:51:51.800 --> 00:51:52.480
popcorn maker.

1205
00:51:52.519 --> 00:51:55.159
Yeah, he just starts whooping it, which the kids love.

1206
00:51:55.320 --> 00:51:57.880
The kids very amused by him just beating the hell

1207
00:51:57.880 --> 00:51:58.800
out of an appliance.

1208
00:51:58.960 --> 00:52:01.400
So later that night we see Jack, Joan and a

1209
00:52:01.400 --> 00:52:03.599
few other women in the neighborhood are playing poker and

1210
00:52:03.639 --> 00:52:06.599
they're using cupons as their chips for the for the pot.

1211
00:52:06.760 --> 00:52:09.000
Yeah, this seems so great, Yeah, because it's just all

1212
00:52:09.039 --> 00:52:11.079
the moms from the neighborhood and him.

1213
00:52:11.159 --> 00:52:11.400
Yep.

1214
00:52:11.639 --> 00:52:14.400
And yeah, they're they're throwing down they're playing poker, they're

1215
00:52:14.440 --> 00:52:16.800
throwing down coupons. They mentioned that it was his idea

1216
00:52:16.840 --> 00:52:19.360
to play poker because they used to play bridge. Yeah, bridge,

1217
00:52:19.400 --> 00:52:22.400
but this is way more fay better. So Jack's enjoying

1218
00:52:22.400 --> 00:52:24.760
a beer, he's enjoining a cigar. Carolyn comes home, but

1219
00:52:24.800 --> 00:52:28.320
she walks up right as Joan has her armor just

1220
00:52:28.760 --> 00:52:29.880
slightly around Jack.

1221
00:52:30.039 --> 00:52:32.239
Yeah, well, she wants him to look at her pair

1222
00:52:32.400 --> 00:52:35.199
her pear. Yeah, yeah, and boy does he.

1223
00:52:35.480 --> 00:52:37.320
So she comes home to find Jack of the ladies.

1224
00:52:37.320 --> 00:52:38.639
She tells him that she's got a lot of work

1225
00:52:38.639 --> 00:52:40.760
to do upstairs, so she's gonna go. This is when

1226
00:52:40.800 --> 00:52:43.079
the ladies take a hint and they split. So Jack

1227
00:52:43.199 --> 00:52:45.000
wants to do something nice for her, so he takes

1228
00:52:45.000 --> 00:52:46.639
her a piece of pizza up with a nice tray

1229
00:52:46.679 --> 00:52:48.400
and some candles, and he's like, you know, hey, room

1230
00:52:48.440 --> 00:52:49.880
service for you. And she's like, well, you know, if

1231
00:52:49.920 --> 00:52:51.360
I wanted to eat, I would have eaten down there

1232
00:52:51.360 --> 00:52:54.199
with you and your friends. Burns, So clearly she's not

1233
00:52:54.280 --> 00:52:57.639
thrilled sick burn. So that's when she comments on his shirt.

1234
00:52:57.679 --> 00:52:59.000
You know, she's like, how long have you been wearing

1235
00:52:59.039 --> 00:53:00.599
that shirt? Like you've been wearing it for this long?

1236
00:53:00.639 --> 00:53:02.280
You know it looks ragged. Why don't you get rid

1237
00:53:02.280 --> 00:53:04.559
of it? She also talks about how his beard is

1238
00:53:04.599 --> 00:53:06.119
not one of her favorite things, and that he also

1239
00:53:06.119 --> 00:53:07.440
maybe putting on a little bit of weight.

1240
00:53:07.719 --> 00:53:11.239
Yeah, she rips into him so brutally. Yeah, I mean

1241
00:53:11.559 --> 00:53:12.920
I get that they're trying.

1242
00:53:12.679 --> 00:53:15.639
To give that whole uh you know, the tables have

1243
00:53:15.719 --> 00:53:16.599
turned like but.

1244
00:53:16.719 --> 00:53:19.880
Like I feel like no man would be that harsh

1245
00:53:19.920 --> 00:53:23.239
to their housewife about like I mean, she's just Yeah,

1246
00:53:23.280 --> 00:53:24.000
he's a mess.

1247
00:53:24.199 --> 00:53:25.480
He does a mess.

1248
00:53:25.599 --> 00:53:26.519
He's a mess.

1249
00:53:26.960 --> 00:53:29.199
Yeah, Oh my gosh. But the way he reacts when

1250
00:53:29.199 --> 00:53:31.159
he takes the pizza and like, I'm gonna sleep on

1251
00:53:31.159 --> 00:53:33.280
the fat couch couch I could get through the door.

1252
00:53:35.119 --> 00:53:37.880
So he grabs the blankets and pillows off the bed,

1253
00:53:37.960 --> 00:53:40.599
goes downstairs and sleeps. We next see Jack watching more

1254
00:53:40.639 --> 00:53:43.599
soaps as the kids play outside. Joan calls him, apologizing

1255
00:53:43.599 --> 00:53:45.480
about the poker game, and Jack tells her that they're

1256
00:53:45.519 --> 00:53:47.960
they're not speaking right now, and Carolyn says, well, I'll

1257
00:53:48.000 --> 00:53:51.599
be Carolyn Jones says she'll be right there, and suddenly,

1258
00:53:51.679 --> 00:53:52.920
just right as he hangs on the phone, there's a

1259
00:53:52.960 --> 00:53:56.360
knock at the door and Joan enters, wearing a trench coat.

1260
00:53:56.679 --> 00:54:00.639
Uh yeah, and we all have us as suspicion about

1261
00:54:00.639 --> 00:54:01.599
where that would be going.

1262
00:54:01.639 --> 00:54:03.599
Where it begins to go because she states that he

1263
00:54:03.599 --> 00:54:06.400
looks great. He begins to She begins to caress his body,

1264
00:54:06.400 --> 00:54:07.519
and he asks her, you know, what do you think

1265
00:54:07.559 --> 00:54:09.119
of the shirt? And she says, oh, I think flannel

1266
00:54:09.119 --> 00:54:11.760
gets flannel gets me really hot. He asked if she

1267
00:54:11.840 --> 00:54:13.360
thinks that he's fat, and she says, well, I like

1268
00:54:13.400 --> 00:54:15.320
a man with the little meat on his bones, finally

1269
00:54:15.360 --> 00:54:17.519
asking about his beard, and that's when Joan just strips

1270
00:54:17.519 --> 00:54:20.159
off her trench coat, revealing a bright red nighty underneath.

1271
00:54:20.360 --> 00:54:23.119
Indeed eighties AF eighties AF.

1272
00:54:23.199 --> 00:54:25.599
So Joan and Jack share a kiss right as Carolyn

1273
00:54:25.639 --> 00:54:28.760
comes home, questioning how could you Joan? Joan comments he's

1274
00:54:28.760 --> 00:54:30.159
too much of a man to leave alone, and that's

1275
00:54:30.199 --> 00:54:32.880
when Carolyn draws a gun and Jack's like, you know, Carolyn,

1276
00:54:32.920 --> 00:54:34.519
you can't do this. You know what about the kids?

1277
00:54:34.599 --> 00:54:36.280
And she's like, oh, I thought about that, putting a

1278
00:54:36.440 --> 00:54:41.280
giant silencer on this gun. Yeah, to not to alert

1279
00:54:41.320 --> 00:54:43.159
the kids. Asking him, well, you know, why did he

1280
00:54:43.199 --> 00:54:45.239
do it, she states that she did it for If

1281
00:54:45.239 --> 00:54:46.800
she did it for eight years, you know, why couldn't

1282
00:54:46.800 --> 00:54:48.880
he handle it. So Joan and Carolyn struggle with the

1283
00:54:48.920 --> 00:54:51.440
gun and suddenly it goes off. Jack gets shot. He's

1284
00:54:51.519 --> 00:54:53.639
upset that his shirt has been ruined. He takes one

1285
00:54:53.760 --> 00:54:56.159
less forget beer before falling on a chalk out line

1286
00:54:56.320 --> 00:54:57.400
that he then moves into.

1287
00:54:57.920 --> 00:55:02.280
Yes, this is some a quality dream secret.

1288
00:55:02.360 --> 00:55:04.800
It's so good. We's next seed, jinks his boss come

1289
00:55:04.800 --> 00:55:06.239
in and he's like, you know, oh, Jack, why can't

1290
00:55:06.239 --> 00:55:07.719
you hold on? I was coming over to give you your

1291
00:55:07.760 --> 00:55:10.840
job back. Ron appears with the with the Carolyn and

1292
00:55:10.840 --> 00:55:12.199
he's like, you know, oh my god, would you use

1293
00:55:12.239 --> 00:55:14.599
a thirty eight? And she goes thirty eight, thirty nine whatever?

1294
00:55:14.639 --> 00:55:16.559
It took great callback.

1295
00:55:16.760 --> 00:55:19.400
So he calls Jack you know Jeff. He's like, oh,

1296
00:55:19.440 --> 00:55:21.920
you know, bad bad Bud, bad business, Jeff, and he's like,

1297
00:55:21.960 --> 00:55:23.679
that's Jack. And that's when we see the TV cuts

1298
00:55:23.679 --> 00:55:25.559
the credits, revealing it all to be a daymare. As

1299
00:55:25.639 --> 00:55:27.840
Jack inspects his shirt, he wakes up, and then we

1300
00:55:27.840 --> 00:55:29.840
hears a knock at the door. Jack opens it to

1301
00:55:29.880 --> 00:55:31.880
see Joan telling him he can't do this, and Joe's like, well,

1302
00:55:31.880 --> 00:55:33.760
what do you mean, like it's the poker game. He's like, well,

1303
00:55:33.800 --> 00:55:35.360
we can't do it, not today. There's been a death

1304
00:55:35.360 --> 00:55:36.840
in the family and he quickly shuts the door.

1305
00:55:36.960 --> 00:55:39.239
Are you thrilled? You got to say the term daymare

1306
00:55:39.280 --> 00:55:40.320
on a podcast again?

1307
00:55:40.360 --> 00:55:43.440
After that? Wasn't Freddy's Long time from Freddy's Nightmares podcast?

1308
00:55:43.480 --> 00:55:43.920
This is true?

1309
00:55:44.000 --> 00:55:46.440
Yeah, I mean, I'm just saying we did we did?

1310
00:55:47.000 --> 00:55:47.199
You know?

1311
00:55:47.440 --> 00:55:48.480
Forty four episodes?

1312
00:55:48.719 --> 00:55:51.440
Well, We did fifty episodes of our show about Freddy's nightmares,

1313
00:55:51.639 --> 00:55:54.320
and I feel like you said daymare almost every episode.

1314
00:55:54.400 --> 00:55:56.079
Yeah, there was a lot of daymares in that show.

1315
00:55:56.280 --> 00:55:59.079
Imagine that crazy, right. So we next see Jack in

1316
00:55:59.119 --> 00:56:01.760
the bathroom. He's from actually shaved. The Rocky theme kicks

1317
00:56:01.760 --> 00:56:04.239
in and we watch a montage of Jack cleaning the house.

1318
00:56:04.440 --> 00:56:06.760
He's painting the fence, he's getting the house back in order,

1319
00:56:06.800 --> 00:56:09.039
even getting Joan and the ladies start exercising, which is

1320
00:56:09.119 --> 00:56:11.599
hilarious because he's leaving the exercise but pops around the

1321
00:56:11.599 --> 00:56:12.880
corner takes a swig of his beer.

1322
00:56:13.000 --> 00:56:14.559
Oh yeah, well, I mean he's got a hydrate.

1323
00:56:14.639 --> 00:56:16.880
Got a hydrate. He's even working on the school a

1324
00:56:16.960 --> 00:56:19.000
drop off lane, so he's actually taking the position of

1325
00:56:19.079 --> 00:56:21.079
organizing the drop off lane. We see him waking the

1326
00:56:21.119 --> 00:56:23.239
kids up with a horn, telling them to clean their rooms.

1327
00:56:23.360 --> 00:56:25.639
He even keeps Carolyn on schedule, giving her toast while

1328
00:56:25.639 --> 00:56:27.199
she's in the shower, being like, hey baby, you're gonna

1329
00:56:27.199 --> 00:56:29.480
be late, and kissing her by before she leaves. He

1330
00:56:29.519 --> 00:56:31.360
even burns his flannel in the fireplace.

1331
00:56:32.119 --> 00:56:34.719
Yeah, and we even burns it in effigy.

1332
00:56:34.840 --> 00:56:36.840
And we see Kenny next to him holding his wobbi

1333
00:56:36.920 --> 00:56:38.360
and we think he's gonna throw it in, but that's

1334
00:56:38.400 --> 00:56:40.880
when Kenny walks off. So Kenny is then found by

1335
00:56:40.960 --> 00:56:42.719
Jack in his room and he's like, you know, hey, buddy,

1336
00:56:43.480 --> 00:56:45.480
you know what about getting rid of Willbe? You know,

1337
00:56:45.480 --> 00:56:47.360
at one point you know it's gonna be you know,

1338
00:56:47.360 --> 00:56:48.840
it's gonna be fine with this, but then you're gonna

1339
00:56:48.840 --> 00:56:51.119
be onto electric blankets and then some bed sheets. Like

1340
00:56:51.119 --> 00:56:53.519
he uses a drug example, Yeah, he.

1341
00:56:53.519 --> 00:56:56.800
Uses a drug metaphor. Yeah, it's very funny. Before you

1342
00:56:56.840 --> 00:56:58.719
know it, you'll be strung out on comfanters.

1343
00:56:58.840 --> 00:56:59.079
Yeah.

1344
00:56:59.119 --> 00:57:00.880
So Kenny still doesn't want to get up, so Jack

1345
00:57:01.000 --> 00:57:02.519
is like, you know, hey, what if you give it

1346
00:57:02.559 --> 00:57:03.920
to me for a couple of days. If you don't

1347
00:57:04.000 --> 00:57:05.800
like it, we'll give it back and you know, go

1348
00:57:05.880 --> 00:57:08.519
from there. So Kenny hands it over and Jack tells

1349
00:57:08.559 --> 00:57:09.840
him that he's got a lot of guts, kid, and

1350
00:57:09.840 --> 00:57:11.320
that's when Kenny's like, you know, hey, can I be

1351
00:57:11.360 --> 00:57:13.719
alone for a few minutes with myself? And Jack's like,

1352
00:57:13.719 --> 00:57:15.719
you know, go ahead, bud, So he goes down the

1353
00:57:15.719 --> 00:57:17.400
stairs holding will Be and Alex is sitting on the

1354
00:57:17.400 --> 00:57:19.119
steps with him, and he tells his dad, Hey, you

1355
00:57:19.239 --> 00:57:21.199
had to do it. It's a really sweet scene.

1356
00:57:21.199 --> 00:57:22.880
Because Alex is the younger brother.

1357
00:57:22.960 --> 00:57:25.760
Yeah, yeah, No, Alex is the older Kenny's the younger.

1358
00:57:25.840 --> 00:57:27.480
Then why was he laying in the bed that wasn't

1359
00:57:27.559 --> 00:57:28.159
the car.

1360
00:57:28.119 --> 00:57:29.519
I don't know, but I know Alex is the older

1361
00:57:29.519 --> 00:57:30.599
one because Kenny will.

1362
00:57:30.480 --> 00:57:32.039
Be Oh okay that well though, I thought that the

1363
00:57:32.079 --> 00:57:33.920
older brother will be And that's why it was so important.

1364
00:57:34.079 --> 00:57:35.360
Alex is the older one, huh.

1365
00:57:35.440 --> 00:57:37.119
Yeah, because he laid in the older kid's bed.

1366
00:57:37.159 --> 00:57:38.840
Well, because Alex goes to school Kenny doesn't.

1367
00:57:39.679 --> 00:57:39.920
Hmm.

1368
00:57:40.800 --> 00:57:42.559
I was just confused by the fact that he didn't

1369
00:57:42.639 --> 00:57:44.519
lay in the race car bed. Yeah, so that made

1370
00:57:44.559 --> 00:57:45.679
me think he was the older son.

1371
00:57:45.800 --> 00:57:48.480
Yeah, I got you. So that's when we see Jack

1372
00:57:48.519 --> 00:57:51.000
preparing a nice meal for him and Carolyn, but clearly

1373
00:57:51.039 --> 00:57:52.960
she's late. We see him sitting at the table alone.

1374
00:57:53.000 --> 00:57:54.840
He's playing with the wine or the champagne court at

1375
00:57:54.880 --> 00:57:56.760
one point and just sitting back. Finally, he ends up

1376
00:57:56.760 --> 00:57:59.800
eating the dinner by himself and goes to bed. Carolyn

1377
00:57:59.800 --> 00:58:01.920
come home late and she sees that he had set

1378
00:58:01.920 --> 00:58:03.679
the table for her and also let the note that

1379
00:58:03.719 --> 00:58:05.800
says dinner's in the oven and the chef is in bed,

1380
00:58:06.079 --> 00:58:11.320
signed Jack Jack. So that's when we see Carolyn go

1381
00:58:11.400 --> 00:58:13.400
out to the couch. She ends up falling asleep on it,

1382
00:58:13.440 --> 00:58:16.559
and Jack comes down and you know, kisses her, and

1383
00:58:16.599 --> 00:58:18.559
that's when they comment that, you know, he's doing a

1384
00:58:18.559 --> 00:58:20.480
great job with everything. She's really proud of him. They

1385
00:58:20.480 --> 00:58:22.360
share a kiss. We cut to the next day at

1386
00:58:22.400 --> 00:58:24.679
the office as we see Carolyn pace outside the boardroom

1387
00:58:24.679 --> 00:58:26.920
as Ron comes out telling her that mister Humphrey shot

1388
00:58:26.960 --> 00:58:29.360
down every idea that they had for the tuna for

1389
00:58:29.360 --> 00:58:31.360
the Schooner Tuna and that she is the ace in

1390
00:58:31.400 --> 00:58:33.639
the hole at this point. So we see her pitch

1391
00:58:33.679 --> 00:58:37.360
to Schooner Tuna using economy struggles for them to drop

1392
00:58:37.400 --> 00:58:39.440
the cans fifty cents basically.

1393
00:58:39.400 --> 00:58:42.960
Which doesn't make any sense economically none, says the average

1394
00:58:42.960 --> 00:58:45.400
can of tuna was certainly less than fifty cents in

1395
00:58:45.480 --> 00:58:48.280
nineteen eighty three. Yeah, and apparently when I googled that,

1396
00:58:48.320 --> 00:58:50.559
I was not the first person who had thought about it. Yeah,

1397
00:58:50.599 --> 00:58:53.320
which says a lot. So just relax and enjoy them move.

1398
00:58:53.599 --> 00:58:56.079
Mister Humphrey is immediately won over with her says that

1399
00:58:56.079 --> 00:58:57.679
it's a tuna with a heart pitch that he loves.

1400
00:58:57.679 --> 00:58:59.639
And he also loves that Carolyn. He even asked Ron

1401
00:58:59.639 --> 00:59:01.239
where he's been hiding her all this time.

1402
00:59:01.440 --> 00:59:03.960
Yeah, so that's a huge win for her in her career.

1403
00:59:04.079 --> 00:59:16.760
Yeah, Do You Even? Movie will be right back, welcome

1404
00:59:16.840 --> 00:59:20.239
back to Do You Even movie?

1405
00:59:22.519 --> 00:59:25.079
So the whole group congratulates her outside of the boardroom.

1406
00:59:25.159 --> 00:59:27.159
Next we see it's Halloween as a limo arrives to

1407
00:59:27.159 --> 00:59:29.400
pick Carolyn up for an eight o'clock flight. As she's

1408
00:59:29.400 --> 00:59:32.480
flying to California to shoot the Schooner Tuna commercial. The

1409
00:59:32.519 --> 00:59:34.960
kids are all dressed for Halloween. Jack's dresses a prisoner

1410
00:59:34.960 --> 00:59:38.039
for Halloween. Heroin kiss Carolyn, My God, Harolyn.

1411
00:59:38.360 --> 00:59:38.639
Yep.

1412
00:59:38.840 --> 00:59:41.880
Carolyn kisses Jack, and you know, Jack pleads with her

1413
00:59:41.960 --> 00:59:43.639
not to go because, you know, like this is Halloween.

1414
00:59:43.679 --> 00:59:45.159
The kids are excited, and she's like, you know, there'll

1415
00:59:45.199 --> 00:59:46.840
be other Halloweens. And he's like, you know what if

1416
00:59:46.880 --> 00:59:49.119
the kids outgrow this, And she's like, Jack, they're young,

1417
00:59:49.199 --> 00:59:51.800
Like there's gonna be other Halloweens. And Jack just pleads

1418
00:59:51.800 --> 00:59:54.239
that they're like to stay, and Carolyn reassures him that

1419
00:59:54.320 --> 00:59:56.760
everything's gonna be okay. That's when Jack takes a second

1420
00:59:56.760 --> 00:59:58.320
and he's like, you know, you've always told me that

1421
00:59:58.360 --> 01:00:00.480
there's important things that we don't want to miss. This

1422
01:00:00.519 --> 01:00:02.760
is one of them, even stating that she could dresses

1423
01:00:02.760 --> 01:00:04.599
a ghost because it seems like even when she's here,

1424
01:00:04.679 --> 01:00:08.320
she's not burn So it's a really serious scene and

1425
01:00:08.440 --> 01:00:10.480
Jack pleads with her one time, stating it's really easy

1426
01:00:10.480 --> 01:00:12.840
to forget what's important. Carolyn says she'll be back in

1427
01:00:12.840 --> 01:00:14.519
a week and they can talk about this, then wiping

1428
01:00:14.559 --> 01:00:16.559
tears if she gets into the limo. That's when a

1429
01:00:16.639 --> 01:00:18.840
Nett and Joan also dressed up for Halloween. We see

1430
01:00:18.840 --> 01:00:21.440
that Annette is wearing an et mask and Joan is

1431
01:00:21.519 --> 01:00:24.360
dressed as a cat, and a Nette walks over and

1432
01:00:24.360 --> 01:00:26.719
she's like, oh, problem with the little woman, and Jack's like,

1433
01:00:26.719 --> 01:00:27.800
shut up a net.

1434
01:00:28.519 --> 01:00:31.199
I do love that because he's she's dressed as so

1435
01:00:31.239 --> 01:00:33.440
it's a trouble with the little woman, Shut up a net.

1436
01:00:34.199 --> 01:00:37.360
So next we see Jack trying to potty train Megan

1437
01:00:37.440 --> 01:00:40.159
as a punkish babysitter arrives at the door. Jack then

1438
01:00:40.159 --> 01:00:41.960
decides that he's gonna take the kids to this meeting

1439
01:00:42.000 --> 01:00:44.599
he has with Jinks as Jinks tells him, you know, hey,

1440
01:00:44.840 --> 01:00:46.440
I need you to back this up for me, bud,

1441
01:00:46.480 --> 01:00:48.559
Like this is this is some serious shit. They go

1442
01:00:48.639 --> 01:00:50.920
into the meeting and that's when we find out that

1443
01:00:51.039 --> 01:00:53.719
Jinx is basically throwing Jack and his buddies under the

1444
01:00:53.760 --> 01:00:56.599
bus for the work because because productions down costs her

1445
01:00:56.679 --> 01:00:59.760
up and they want to know why. And Jack immediately

1446
01:00:59.760 --> 01:01:01.480
sees what's going on, so he's like, you know, this

1447
01:01:01.519 --> 01:01:03.519
guy's is trying to cover his ass. Like when I

1448
01:01:03.559 --> 01:01:05.360
was there, production was up, we had all these great

1449
01:01:05.400 --> 01:01:07.880
rates going on. And that's when Alex enters the room

1450
01:01:07.960 --> 01:01:10.000
and Jinx tells him that he'll have to leave. Jack

1451
01:01:10.039 --> 01:01:11.519
tells him if he ever talks to his kids like

1452
01:01:11.519 --> 01:01:13.079
that again, he'll knock him right out.

1453
01:01:13.360 --> 01:01:16.880
He's gonna knock you out, knock you out.

1454
01:01:17.199 --> 01:01:19.119
So that's when we see Jack in the restroom trying

1455
01:01:19.119 --> 01:01:20.880
to dry Megan with one of the hand dryers in

1456
01:01:20.920 --> 01:01:23.199
the bathroom, and the bathrooms and disarray this toilet paper

1457
01:01:23.239 --> 01:01:25.280
all over the place as the kid's running around bunctious.

1458
01:01:25.480 --> 01:01:28.000
That's when one of the meeting people and Jinks walk

1459
01:01:28.039 --> 01:01:29.639
in and Jinks just has a laugh at the sight

1460
01:01:29.679 --> 01:01:29.920
of this.

1461
01:01:30.800 --> 01:01:32.440
Yeah, good old Jinks.

1462
01:01:32.360 --> 01:01:36.559
Jeffrey Tambord just being a dick. So well, yeah, So

1463
01:01:36.639 --> 01:01:39.960
in California, Carolyn is watching mister Humphrey struggle with the commercial.

1464
01:01:40.119 --> 01:01:42.679
Ron's annoyed, but he also asked Carolyn about dinner after

1465
01:01:42.719 --> 01:01:44.719
they're done shooting the commercial, and that's when Carolyn says

1466
01:01:44.760 --> 01:01:46.360
that she's just so tired that she just wants to

1467
01:01:46.360 --> 01:01:48.239
go back to her hotel room and enjoy the jacuzzie.

1468
01:01:48.280 --> 01:01:50.320
And Ron's like, it's not a bad idea.

1469
01:01:51.000 --> 01:01:52.880
It's just a bathtub. It's not a jacuzie.

1470
01:01:52.960 --> 01:01:54.559
That's what she says, jacuzie. She doesn't say bad.

1471
01:01:54.639 --> 01:01:56.880
She says, lay in a hot tub. Hot tub, excuse me,

1472
01:01:57.599 --> 01:02:02.239
hot tub feels nice inside.

1473
01:02:02.320 --> 01:02:04.800
Joe Jack is out with the ladies and they are

1474
01:02:04.880 --> 01:02:07.159
leaving a restaurant and that's when they push him into

1475
01:02:07.199 --> 01:02:09.360
the car taking him to a Chippendale show, which is

1476
01:02:09.400 --> 01:02:10.440
a really funny scene.

1477
01:02:10.599 --> 01:02:13.239
No, it is really funny because the guys are dancing,

1478
01:02:13.280 --> 01:02:15.760
they're stripping down to their skivvies, and then one dancer

1479
01:02:15.960 --> 01:02:19.159
just b lines right for Jack. He just he is

1480
01:02:19.239 --> 01:02:22.400
all about him and uh gives him a couple buck.

1481
01:02:22.199 --> 01:02:23.559
Gives him a couple bucks. He's like, I don't want

1482
01:02:23.559 --> 01:02:24.800
to know where it's going, don't tell me.

1483
01:02:25.039 --> 01:02:26.920
Of course, it's going right into the cod piece.

1484
01:02:26.760 --> 01:02:30.360
Right into the cod piece. So that's when the kids ask, uh, excuse.

1485
01:02:30.519 --> 01:02:33.320
So Jack leaves and the ladies drop him off the house,

1486
01:02:33.360 --> 01:02:35.639
and that's when he walks in and Anette laughs because

1487
01:02:35.639 --> 01:02:37.400
he's like, you knew where they were taking me. And

1488
01:02:37.400 --> 01:02:39.199
that's when the kids ask if they can call Carolyn

1489
01:02:39.559 --> 01:02:41.000
and he's like, no, no, it's too late, you know,

1490
01:02:41.039 --> 01:02:42.840
we we'll call her tomorrow. And that's when Net's like, well,

1491
01:02:42.840 --> 01:02:45.199
you know, it's only eight thirty in California, so they

1492
01:02:45.199 --> 01:02:47.199
decide to call her. We see Carolyn in a bubble

1493
01:02:47.239 --> 01:02:49.639
bath enjoying a milkshake as Ron sneaks in with the

1494
01:02:49.719 --> 01:02:52.880
room service guy. He starts pouring champagne, changing the stereo,

1495
01:02:52.920 --> 01:02:55.320
which gets Carolyn's attention, and that's when her phone rings

1496
01:02:55.320 --> 01:02:57.880
in the hotel room. Ron answers and he's like Alex,

1497
01:02:57.920 --> 01:02:59.760
who And that's when Alex hands the phone off to

1498
01:02:59.800 --> 01:03:02.239
Jay and Jack's like, Hi, who is this? And Ron's

1499
01:03:02.280 --> 01:03:03.760
like and you know, Ron says who he is? Who's this?

1500
01:03:04.039 --> 01:03:06.360
And he's like, well, this is her husband. Ron immediately

1501
01:03:06.400 --> 01:03:07.159
hangs up the phone.

1502
01:03:07.199 --> 01:03:12.320
He hangs up the phone and this begins things getting

1503
01:03:12.320 --> 01:03:13.000
a little harry.

1504
01:03:13.239 --> 01:03:16.079
So Carolyn comes out asking who that was, and Ron

1505
01:03:16.119 --> 01:03:18.400
admits that he's been drinking a lot. And Carolyn knows this,

1506
01:03:18.519 --> 01:03:20.760
and Ron tells her to dump Jack. You know, he's

1507
01:03:20.840 --> 01:03:23.119
you know, we could work on this together. You can

1508
01:03:23.119 --> 01:03:25.599
become partner. That's when she punches Ron out as he

1509
01:03:25.639 --> 01:03:28.679
goes in for a kiss. Ron laying Martin Bull, one

1510
01:03:28.679 --> 01:03:30.400
of his comedic bests, laying in the back of the

1511
01:03:30.480 --> 01:03:33.119
seat that topples over this chair, his legs hanging over it.

1512
01:03:33.199 --> 01:03:35.199
He goes, ah, playing hard to get.

1513
01:03:35.039 --> 01:03:38.039
I see, and she I mean she clocks.

1514
01:03:37.679 --> 01:03:39.440
The locks him very hard.

1515
01:03:39.519 --> 01:03:39.719
Yeah.

1516
01:03:39.840 --> 01:03:40.639
Yeah.

1517
01:03:40.679 --> 01:03:43.159
So that's when the next morning back at the house

1518
01:03:43.159 --> 01:03:45.000
and lad next she'd be the same night back of

1519
01:03:45.039 --> 01:03:46.760
the house and that's enjoying a beer with Jack and

1520
01:03:46.800 --> 01:03:48.360
the phone rings for the fourth time, and that's like,

1521
01:03:48.400 --> 01:03:50.280
you know, why don't you answer it? And Jack's like,

1522
01:03:50.320 --> 01:03:52.639
you know, okay, yeah, I will unplugs the phone, chucks

1523
01:03:52.679 --> 01:03:54.280
it across the house and that's when and that's like,

1524
01:03:54.440 --> 01:03:58.480
all right, I'm gonna leave you to go with your Yeah.

1525
01:03:58.519 --> 01:04:01.239
So also at the last second he kicks through the

1526
01:04:01.280 --> 01:04:04.480
TV screen destroying it, which I forgot about.

1527
01:04:04.679 --> 01:04:07.920
It startled me because it knocks over and basically explodes

1528
01:04:07.960 --> 01:04:11.000
with a little bit of fire, and you're like, oh shit, Okay.

1529
01:04:11.199 --> 01:04:13.599
So the next morning we see a net and gossiping

1530
01:04:13.639 --> 01:04:14.840
the jon and she's like, you know, now I told

1531
01:04:14.880 --> 01:04:16.599
you this in secrecy. You know, don't do anything with it.

1532
01:04:16.639 --> 01:04:18.440
And she's like, don't worry, I won't, speeding out of

1533
01:04:18.440 --> 01:04:21.159
her driveway right towards Jack's house. So that's when we

1534
01:04:21.199 --> 01:04:23.960
also see the Carolyn's plane is landing. Alex answers the

1535
01:04:24.000 --> 01:04:27.079
door covered in paint, and we see Jack is painting

1536
01:04:27.079 --> 01:04:28.480
the house. He's kind of just on one of his

1537
01:04:28.599 --> 01:04:31.760
chort tirades. The TV repair man's over and she's like, hey, Jack,

1538
01:04:31.800 --> 01:04:33.679
I found the problem pulling a shoe out of the TV.

1539
01:04:34.159 --> 01:04:35.639
Well, there's your problem.

1540
01:04:35.760 --> 01:04:36.400
There's your problem.

1541
01:04:36.519 --> 01:04:39.639
That's one of my favorite tropes is the mechanic that goes,

1542
01:04:39.800 --> 01:04:40.760
there's your problem.

1543
01:04:40.840 --> 01:04:41.039
Pal.

1544
01:04:41.400 --> 01:04:43.800
The exterminator is also back over checking around. This is

1545
01:04:43.800 --> 01:04:45.480
also when he has all right, I found, you know,

1546
01:04:45.519 --> 01:04:47.159
nothing in the kitchen. I'm gonna go check the basement.

1547
01:04:47.199 --> 01:04:50.039
Hope I'll find any bugs down there. So that's when

1548
01:04:50.320 --> 01:04:52.840
Jack offers Joan a drink, and she gets the idea,

1549
01:04:52.920 --> 01:04:54.880
and we see her walking into his bedroom with a

1550
01:04:54.920 --> 01:04:57.239
two with a tray with two glasses on it and

1551
01:04:57.280 --> 01:04:58.639
a bottle of Jack Daniels.

1552
01:04:58.280 --> 01:05:01.440
Because the good stuff classy and she's classy.

1553
01:05:01.559 --> 01:05:04.039
She expresses her approval of his new bed sheets, even

1554
01:05:04.119 --> 01:05:06.639
laying on them, and you know, Jack's in the bathroom

1555
01:05:06.639 --> 01:05:08.239
and he's just talking to himself in the mirror about,

1556
01:05:08.320 --> 01:05:10.000
you know, what could go wrong if he ends up

1557
01:05:10.000 --> 01:05:10.760
sleeping with Joe.

1558
01:05:10.800 --> 01:05:13.320
One of my favorite gags because he starts doing a

1559
01:05:13.920 --> 01:05:16.519
you know, she's very attractable, b or this is this,

1560
01:05:16.679 --> 01:05:18.360
and as it cuts back, he comes back, he's.

1561
01:05:18.239 --> 01:05:21.320
Like em, she's he just goes to the entire alphabet.

1562
01:05:21.440 --> 01:05:25.159
He's really really laying out all of his options, which

1563
01:05:25.199 --> 01:05:27.079
is hilarious because it's like, on one hand, he doesn't

1564
01:05:27.079 --> 01:05:28.559
want to cheat, but on the other hand, he's really

1565
01:05:28.559 --> 01:05:30.760
got to convince himself that this isn't a good idea

1566
01:05:30.800 --> 01:05:32.880
because he's basically, as far as.

1567
01:05:32.800 --> 01:05:36.039
He knows, he's been cheated, he's been mistreated. Yeah, and

1568
01:05:36.079 --> 01:05:38.559
now he has this beautiful woman throwing herself at him,

1569
01:05:38.639 --> 01:05:41.719
but unfortunately things aren't gonna work out.

1570
01:05:41.760 --> 01:05:42.559
For that anyway.

1571
01:05:42.679 --> 01:05:44.760
So Carolyn comes in and she finds Joan and she's

1572
01:05:44.800 --> 01:05:47.119
asking what she's doing in her room. Jack, still in

1573
01:05:47.159 --> 01:05:49.360
the bathroom, comes out and not realizing Carolyn's back, and

1574
01:05:49.400 --> 01:05:51.079
he's like, all right, Joan, and she's like Jack and

1575
01:05:51.119 --> 01:05:53.320
he's like Carolyn, what are you doing here? And that's

1576
01:05:53.360 --> 01:05:55.079
when you know he has come to the conclusion that

1577
01:05:55.119 --> 01:05:57.039
he's in love with his wife. He's not gonna do anything.

1578
01:05:57.119 --> 01:05:59.159
So Carolyn asked about the other woman in his room.

1579
01:05:59.239 --> 01:06:00.960
Jack tells her he's try to stay calm. This is

1580
01:06:01.000 --> 01:06:03.679
not the time to talk about it. Downstairs, Jinks now

1581
01:06:03.719 --> 01:06:06.280
comes over, begging Jack to come back because he is

1582
01:06:06.320 --> 01:06:09.119
in trouble. He stripped the budget back, he's been found out.

1583
01:06:09.119 --> 01:06:11.280
He's begging Jack, you know, you can have a salary,

1584
01:06:11.280 --> 01:06:13.559
you can have a car. And Jack just doesn't want

1585
01:06:13.599 --> 01:06:15.679
to hear this, and Alex even is like, you know, hey, dad,

1586
01:06:15.800 --> 01:06:18.840
blah blah blah, And that's when Jinks decides yell at

1587
01:06:18.840 --> 01:06:21.000
his son again and Jack says I warned you and

1588
01:06:21.199 --> 01:06:22.360
punches Jinks out.

1589
01:06:22.639 --> 01:06:26.920
Yeah yeah, just Colecox and his son's like, wow, one punch.

1590
01:06:26.679 --> 01:06:29.280
One punch. So Ron also comes over begging Carolyn to

1591
01:06:29.280 --> 01:06:31.440
come back, because if Carolyn doesn't come back, mister Humphries

1592
01:06:31.480 --> 01:06:33.800
is gonna pull the account. Jack finds out the Carolyn

1593
01:06:33.880 --> 01:06:35.320
quitter job and she's like, you know, I didn't like

1594
01:06:35.320 --> 01:06:38.639
that job anyway. Jinks offers Jack full salary company car

1595
01:06:38.679 --> 01:06:40.880
and he's like talking to the extreminatory. He's like, oh,

1596
01:06:40.920 --> 01:06:42.840
you know, full sellar company car Oh, you should take it.

1597
01:06:43.360 --> 01:06:46.679
He like uses the the bug guy is like a negotiary.

1598
01:06:46.719 --> 01:06:47.920
He's like, tell him I want this and.

1599
01:06:47.960 --> 01:06:50.400
That one's standing in such and such a bad hens.

1600
01:06:50.559 --> 01:06:52.400
He's like, he wants standing so and so back. Who

1601
01:06:52.400 --> 01:06:52.840
are they?

1602
01:06:52.920 --> 01:06:55.840
Yeah, So we see Jack and Carolyn make up. They're

1603
01:06:55.920 --> 01:06:58.800
they're happy with it. Carolyn commercial comes on the air

1604
01:06:58.840 --> 01:07:01.559
which talk about going to commerc going to air really quick.

1605
01:07:01.639 --> 01:07:03.039
She shot that commercial yesterday.

1606
01:07:03.360 --> 01:07:06.400
Well, you know, life moves in the fast lane when

1607
01:07:06.440 --> 01:07:07.440
it comes to the big Tuna.

1608
01:07:07.599 --> 01:07:09.920
So that's when the commercial comes on. The TV repairman

1609
01:07:10.039 --> 01:07:12.400
is talking, ron Jinx is talking to the exterminator. We

1610
01:07:12.440 --> 01:07:15.119
see Jack and Carolyn watching the spot. The kids surround them,

1611
01:07:15.199 --> 01:07:18.599
and that is the end of nineteen eighty three's mister mom.

1612
01:07:18.559 --> 01:07:21.760
It's true you boys, and uh what a ride. It

1613
01:07:21.800 --> 01:07:26.079
definitely uh escalates very quickly at the end. Yeah, that

1614
01:07:26.159 --> 01:07:28.519
last fourteen kind of shatters all at once.

1615
01:07:28.639 --> 01:07:30.480
Yeah. So would you like to know what the budget

1616
01:07:30.559 --> 01:07:32.920
was for the film? I would you want to guess?

1617
01:07:34.800 --> 01:07:35.559
Nineteen eighty three.

1618
01:07:37.199 --> 01:07:39.800
I bet it's lower than well, No, eighty.

1619
01:07:39.519 --> 01:07:42.559
Three, single digital give you that.

1620
01:07:42.880 --> 01:07:44.599
I was already I was about to guess, and then

1621
01:07:44.639 --> 01:07:45.119
you fucked it.

1622
01:07:45.159 --> 01:07:47.320
Up, Fuck it up. You were gonna get single digit anyway.

1623
01:07:47.400 --> 01:07:49.599
Yeah, I was gonna say four fuck you? Oh okay,

1624
01:07:49.639 --> 01:07:52.440
five oh okays bizarrely close.

1625
01:07:52.360 --> 01:07:55.400
Yeah, five million opening weekend. It takes in nine hundred

1626
01:07:55.400 --> 01:07:57.679
and forty seven thousand dollars. It comes out July twenty

1627
01:07:57.719 --> 01:08:01.039
fourth of nineteen eighty three, box office totaling sixty four

1628
01:08:01.159 --> 01:08:02.079
million dollars.

1629
01:08:02.320 --> 01:08:03.480
Well that's a fucking hit.

1630
01:08:03.480 --> 01:08:05.599
Yeah, I would say so.

1631
01:08:05.119 --> 01:08:08.199
So I would say this kind of launched his career

1632
01:08:08.400 --> 01:08:09.960
just a bit, just a bit so.

1633
01:08:10.079 --> 01:08:13.719
Shot in Los Angeles and Santa Monica, California. This is

1634
01:08:13.760 --> 01:08:16.560
based on a personal experience of John Hughes. His wife

1635
01:08:16.600 --> 01:08:18.680
had gone to Arizona, so he was left with his

1636
01:08:18.720 --> 01:08:21.600
two young sons to take care of, and Nancy was

1637
01:08:21.920 --> 01:08:24.199
taking care of him all through college his wife. Before that,

1638
01:08:24.319 --> 01:08:26.000
his mother had taken care of him. So John was

1639
01:08:26.039 --> 01:08:27.920
really out of his element for this, So he actually

1640
01:08:28.000 --> 01:08:30.760
wrote all his experiences down ends up making an eighty

1641
01:08:30.800 --> 01:08:32.520
paid screenplay out of his personal stories.

1642
01:08:32.800 --> 01:08:34.960
It's very obvious to me that this came from a

1643
01:08:35.000 --> 01:08:35.920
place of experience.

1644
01:08:36.039 --> 01:08:38.159
Yeah, So Hughes asked if this would make a good

1645
01:08:38.159 --> 01:08:40.600
movie to Lynn Schuler Donner and she says, you know,

1646
01:08:40.640 --> 01:08:44.439
it sounds funny to me. Schuler was a producer at

1647
01:08:44.640 --> 01:08:46.720
one I think it was Universal at the time, and

1648
01:08:46.840 --> 01:08:49.279
Hughes wrote the film. He flew to La to rewrite

1649
01:08:49.319 --> 01:08:50.920
it with her and they pitched it to the execut

1650
01:08:50.960 --> 01:08:53.880
Universal Studios. After being hired as an executive producer, Aaron

1651
01:08:53.920 --> 01:08:57.560
Spelling tells him the execs are unhappy that Hughes works

1652
01:08:57.560 --> 01:08:59.600
in Chicago and not in La so he's fired off

1653
01:08:59.600 --> 01:09:00.000
the project.

1654
01:09:00.439 --> 01:09:03.119
Yeah, that was the problem he faced a lot early on.

1655
01:09:03.279 --> 01:09:05.560
And so they bring in a TV writers to do

1656
01:09:05.600 --> 01:09:07.720
a rewrite for it. Ron Howard Is offered to direct

1657
01:09:07.760 --> 01:09:09.720
the film, but turned it down a direct splash. The

1658
01:09:09.760 --> 01:09:12.560
studio eventually turned the project into a feature film, and Shuler,

1659
01:09:12.560 --> 01:09:15.159
who remained on the project, says Hughes's original script was

1660
01:09:15.239 --> 01:09:16.720
much better than what the film turned out to be.

1661
01:09:17.079 --> 01:09:18.880
Well, I'm sure they broadened it a lot.

1662
01:09:19.039 --> 01:09:21.640
Yeah. This is the second feature written by John Hughes

1663
01:09:21.720 --> 01:09:24.199
and the first time that Michael Keaton receives top billing.

1664
01:09:24.279 --> 01:09:26.479
Keaton turned down Splash to do this film.

1665
01:09:26.560 --> 01:09:27.199
Good for him.

1666
01:09:27.760 --> 01:09:31.800
Keaton was represented by Lori Pearlman, and she contacted Schuler stating, look,

1667
01:09:31.840 --> 01:09:34.399
I represent this guy. He's really funny. Would you meet him?

1668
01:09:34.640 --> 01:09:37.000
Schuler met simply because Perlman was a friend who also

1669
01:09:37.039 --> 01:09:39.000
recommended that she goes see Night Shift with was his

1670
01:09:39.039 --> 01:09:41.439
comedy that was out at the time. Shuler recalls going

1671
01:09:41.439 --> 01:09:43.600
to see Night Shift and midway through could not wait

1672
01:09:43.640 --> 01:09:45.000
to get out of theater so she could give the

1673
01:09:45.079 --> 01:09:46.199
role to him for mister mom.

1674
01:09:46.319 --> 01:09:47.880
Oh wow, yeah makes sense.

1675
01:09:48.000 --> 01:09:50.479
So the twenty twenty one scene between Keaton and Mall

1676
01:09:50.560 --> 01:09:53.600
improvised the twenty twenty twenty one line. Keaton told Esquire,

1677
01:09:53.680 --> 01:09:55.239
we were doing the scene and I remember saying to

1678
01:09:55.279 --> 01:09:57.720
the prop guy, go find me a chainsaw. So the

1679
01:09:57.720 --> 01:09:59.199
prop guy comes back and he says, you want to

1680
01:09:59.199 --> 01:10:01.600
wear these holding the goggles, and that's when he says, yeah,

1681
01:10:01.600 --> 01:10:03.079
you know, they would make me look real crazy. And

1682
01:10:03.079 --> 01:10:05.079
that's when Martin shows up. He says, I know I

1683
01:10:05.119 --> 01:10:07.680
shouldn't go, I shouldn't look under control. I know I'm sweating.

1684
01:10:07.760 --> 01:10:10.279
I'm a dude. So we're standing there and Martin pulls

1685
01:10:10.319 --> 01:10:11.640
me aside and he says, you know what you ought

1686
01:10:11.640 --> 01:10:13.479
to say when I ask you about the wiring. You

1687
01:10:13.479 --> 01:10:15.720
ought to just deadpan two twenty two twenty one and

1688
01:10:15.760 --> 01:10:18.479
I died. It was perfect. I may have added whatever

1689
01:10:18.479 --> 01:10:19.640
it takes, but it's a hit.

1690
01:10:20.239 --> 01:10:23.279
Or it's like mold because mol came from a very

1691
01:10:23.319 --> 01:10:25.039
intense improv background.

1692
01:10:25.159 --> 01:10:25.359
Yeah.

1693
01:10:25.479 --> 01:10:27.359
Keaton also went on to say that every carpenter or

1694
01:10:27.359 --> 01:10:30.279
construction person that he's worked with always references that line

1695
01:10:30.279 --> 01:10:31.119
and quotes it to him.

1696
01:10:31.560 --> 01:10:33.319
It's a great line, it's super funny.

1697
01:10:33.359 --> 01:10:35.800
According to Jeffrey Tambor, the shot of Keaton knocking him

1698
01:10:35.800 --> 01:10:38.880
out was done in one take, damn right. In an

1699
01:10:38.920 --> 01:10:41.159
interview with The av Club, Terry Garr revealed that when

1700
01:10:41.159 --> 01:10:43.840
producers pitched the movie to her, they hid the plot reversal.

1701
01:10:44.000 --> 01:10:45.439
They just told me it was about a guy who

1702
01:10:45.439 --> 01:10:47.560
does the work that a woman does because it's so easy.

1703
01:10:47.560 --> 01:10:50.079
And I went, oh, yeah, it's so easy. All the

1704
01:10:50.119 --> 01:10:51.600
women I know who stay home and take care of

1705
01:10:51.600 --> 01:10:55.199
their kids, they go, oh, yeah, this is easy. In

1706
01:10:55.279 --> 01:10:57.520
nineteen eighty three, more women stayed at home than work,

1707
01:10:57.560 --> 01:10:59.039
so it was a novelty for a man to be

1708
01:10:59.119 --> 01:11:01.319
a stay at home dad. Today, an estimated one point

1709
01:11:01.319 --> 01:11:03.239
four million men or stay at home dads, and seven

1710
01:11:03.239 --> 01:11:06.479
million men are their children primary caregiver. Mister Mom became

1711
01:11:06.520 --> 01:11:09.920
part of the vernacular. Donner told Newsweek, Mister Mom represented

1712
01:11:09.920 --> 01:11:12.039
a segment of men who were at home dealing with

1713
01:11:12.079 --> 01:11:15.039
the kids who up until then, really who hadn't been

1714
01:11:15.079 --> 01:11:17.279
heard from. That's what they really told me about the

1715
01:11:17.279 --> 01:11:18.880
power of the film because it spoke to a lot

1716
01:11:18.880 --> 01:11:20.800
of men. It also helped women because I think that

1717
01:11:20.840 --> 01:11:22.960
women sometimes if you're a housewife or you're not really

1718
01:11:23.000 --> 01:11:25.239
appreciated for what you do. This sort of made women

1719
01:11:25.319 --> 01:11:27.720
feel better about what they did because they knew that

1720
01:11:27.760 --> 01:11:31.359
the men were understanding it. Quotes are weird, Yeah they are.

1721
01:11:32.000 --> 01:11:34.600
In this scene where Jeffrey Tambor's character fires the engineer,

1722
01:11:34.640 --> 01:11:37.479
he reassures them that you guys are terrific engineers. You're

1723
01:11:37.520 --> 01:11:39.680
too good not to catch on Somewhere. Michael Keaton's character

1724
01:11:39.760 --> 01:11:43.159
replies where We're going to go on Nagasaki. Three years later,

1725
01:11:43.279 --> 01:11:45.479
Keaton would star in Gung Ho, a film which opened

1726
01:11:45.479 --> 01:11:48.479
with his character in automotive factory foreman traveling to Japan

1727
01:11:48.520 --> 01:11:51.640
to convince a Japanese automaker to reopen the factory. So

1728
01:11:51.760 --> 01:11:54.159
it's a sequel, a sequel. Have you seen Gung Ho?

1729
01:11:54.439 --> 01:11:55.520
No, it's a pretty good movie.

1730
01:11:55.520 --> 01:11:58.239
It's a little odd, but it's fun. In the scene

1731
01:11:58.239 --> 01:12:00.720
where Terry gar arrives home to find Keaton and Jillian

1732
01:12:00.960 --> 01:12:03.199
and Gillian kissing after getting shot in the struggle for

1733
01:12:03.239 --> 01:12:05.439
the gun, Keaton ad lived the sip from the foaming

1734
01:12:05.479 --> 01:12:07.600
beer bottle, which knocked over after it fell to the floor,

1735
01:12:07.760 --> 01:12:10.119
and Jillian can be seen struggling to hide her laughter

1736
01:12:10.279 --> 01:12:12.399
even with her back to the camera. The move was

1737
01:12:12.439 --> 01:12:15.079
not scripted, and Keaton simply incorporated it into the scene

1738
01:12:15.279 --> 01:12:19.039
nice like Tailsen Jaffi, who played Kenny Butler in the film,

1739
01:12:19.079 --> 01:12:22.000
admitted on Mister mom Bonus documentary that his asking for

1740
01:12:22.039 --> 01:12:24.119
a moment alone to himself was due to the fact

1741
01:12:24.119 --> 01:12:26.880
that he forgot his line and that it's the scene

1742
01:12:26.920 --> 01:12:28.960
seems so genuine that they decided to keep it in.

1743
01:12:29.399 --> 01:12:33.439
Really, yeah, that's so crazy because to me that scene

1744
01:12:33.479 --> 01:12:35.800
was obviously a child being directed to act like a

1745
01:12:35.800 --> 01:12:36.359
little adult.

1746
01:12:36.479 --> 01:12:38.479
Yeah, the guy on the on the bonus said that

1747
01:12:38.479 --> 01:12:39.119
that's what it was.

1748
01:12:39.439 --> 01:12:40.079
Uh.

1749
01:12:40.119 --> 01:12:42.199
The attack of the Vacuum was shot using a hollowed

1750
01:12:42.199 --> 01:12:44.479
out vacuum with an RC car inside that a stage

1751
01:12:44.520 --> 01:12:47.520
hand ran via remote control perched above the set. Okay,

1752
01:12:48.560 --> 01:12:51.079
Mister Mom opened one hundred and twenty six screens. Once

1753
01:12:51.079 --> 01:12:54.119
the film went wide a month later, tore and thirty

1754
01:12:54.159 --> 01:12:56.159
five screens. It hit number one at the box office.

1755
01:12:56.159 --> 01:12:58.279
It spent five weeks at the top. By the end

1756
01:12:58.279 --> 01:13:00.199
of its run, the film had grossed just shot A

1757
01:13:00.279 --> 01:13:02.840
sixty five million, making it the ninth highest grossing film

1758
01:13:02.840 --> 01:13:05.399
of nineteen eighty three, just between Staying Alive in Risky

1759
01:13:05.439 --> 01:13:09.239
Business Wow, National Lampoon's Vacation, Hughes's other film that summer,

1760
01:13:09.239 --> 01:13:11.520
came out July twenty ninth and ended at theatrical run

1761
01:13:11.560 --> 01:13:14.239
with sixty one million. At its height, it showed on

1762
01:13:15.039 --> 01:13:17.880
and forty eight screens. Vacation finished the year in eleventh place.

1763
01:13:17.920 --> 01:13:20.479
So Mister Mom beat National Lampoon's Vacation. Wow.

1764
01:13:20.520 --> 01:13:22.920
That surprises me. Yeah, that's nuts.

1765
01:13:23.159 --> 01:13:25.359
Part of a mini cycle of Hollywood reversal comedies of

1766
01:13:25.359 --> 01:13:27.880
the nineteen eighties. The films include Mister Mom in eighty three,

1767
01:13:27.920 --> 01:13:29.840
Baby Boom in eighty seven, and Three Men in a

1768
01:13:29.840 --> 01:13:30.920
Baby in eighty seven as.

1769
01:13:30.800 --> 01:13:32.800
Well, Oh Yeah, Three Men and a Baby.

1770
01:13:32.880 --> 01:13:36.960
Chevy Chase, Michael Douglas, Steve Martin, Robin Williams, John Goodman,

1771
01:13:37.079 --> 01:13:39.319
and John Travolta were all considered for the role of

1772
01:13:39.399 --> 01:13:40.000
Jack Butler.

1773
01:13:42.760 --> 01:13:44.479
I could see John Travolta, I.

1774
01:13:44.399 --> 01:13:46.399
Could see Travolta, I can see Martin.

1775
01:13:47.319 --> 01:13:48.319
Yeah, I could see that too.

1776
01:13:48.920 --> 01:13:52.079
Dabney Coleman, Jeffrey Jones, Burt Reynolds, and Jack Nicholson were

1777
01:13:52.079 --> 01:13:53.760
considered for the role of Ron Richardson.

1778
01:13:55.880 --> 01:13:59.680
I can see Dabney, Jeffrey Jones, Jeffrey Williams A million

1779
01:13:59.760 --> 01:14:00.800
Times Jeffrey.

1780
01:14:00.560 --> 01:14:03.720
Jones, Karen Allen, Jane Curtin, Fair Faucett and Sally Field

1781
01:14:03.760 --> 01:14:05.520
were considered for the role of Carolyn Butler.

1782
01:14:05.680 --> 01:14:11.119
Oh man, I mean Sally Field. Yeah, but I'm damn yeah,

1783
01:14:11.359 --> 01:14:12.039
that's hell of a.

1784
01:14:12.640 --> 01:14:14.640
What are your final thoughts on Mister Mom.

1785
01:14:14.800 --> 01:14:17.560
Well, when it comes to Mister Mom, I kind of

1786
01:14:17.880 --> 01:14:20.039
gave away most of my opinion on it, which is

1787
01:14:20.199 --> 01:14:25.239
very simply that it's a fun and sweet film with

1788
01:14:25.279 --> 01:14:29.720
a lot of laughs. It's not Hughes's best work. It's

1789
01:14:29.800 --> 01:14:33.720
not something that I have to revisit constantly like a

1790
01:14:33.760 --> 01:14:37.319
lot of his other work. Yeah, so, I do love it.

1791
01:14:37.880 --> 01:14:40.720
I'm a completionist. If you're out there and you can't

1792
01:14:40.720 --> 01:14:44.479
get enough of Ferris Bueller and Plainstrands and automobiles and

1793
01:14:44.920 --> 01:14:47.479
all of that, then you should probably own it. But

1794
01:14:47.520 --> 01:14:49.760
I think for the average person it's a rent. It

1795
01:14:49.880 --> 01:14:54.199
It's definitely worth paying for to watch, especially for the

1796
01:14:54.199 --> 01:14:57.199
beginning of my Michael Keaton's career, the beginning of John

1797
01:14:57.279 --> 01:14:59.119
Hughes's career really taking off.

1798
01:14:59.399 --> 01:15:01.520
It was a big deal. But at the end of

1799
01:15:01.560 --> 01:15:05.720
the day, the movie is kind of it's lacking some

1800
01:15:05.760 --> 01:15:09.119
of the stuff that made Hughes's big hits Yeah so big.

1801
01:15:09.920 --> 01:15:11.920
But I do love it, and I think the Keaton

1802
01:15:12.000 --> 01:15:14.319
factor really helps the movie a lot.

1803
01:15:14.399 --> 01:15:16.199
I would love to see his original screenplay because I'm

1804
01:15:16.199 --> 01:15:17.520
curious if it got a little darker.

1805
01:15:18.520 --> 01:15:19.039
I wonder.

1806
01:15:19.199 --> 01:15:21.920
Yeah, Sam, So it's a reddit for me as well,

1807
01:15:22.239 --> 01:15:24.760
a very funny and wholesome family comedy. It tackles issues

1808
01:15:24.800 --> 01:15:27.239
that I think are still topical today. Keaton shines in

1809
01:15:27.279 --> 01:15:29.840
his first top build movie, both bringing the jokes NonStop,

1810
01:15:29.840 --> 01:15:32.760
but also he portrays a very caring and loving father

1811
01:15:32.800 --> 01:15:33.520
and husband in it.

1812
01:15:33.600 --> 01:15:37.960
No, he does, and he comes across consistently kind and loving,

1813
01:15:38.039 --> 01:15:39.079
even with those eyebrows.

1814
01:15:39.159 --> 01:15:41.960
Even the eyebrows. The supporting cast keeps the film going

1815
01:15:42.039 --> 01:15:44.119
with its terrific bits, and the writing is is kind

1816
01:15:44.159 --> 01:15:45.680
of like your own Webby in a way. It just

1817
01:15:45.720 --> 01:15:47.720
has that Hughes feeling that only he can deliver, even

1818
01:15:47.720 --> 01:15:49.880
if it is a little down from what he's what

1819
01:15:49.960 --> 01:15:51.079
he can produce usually.

1820
01:15:51.520 --> 01:15:53.800
Yeah, well, I mean it's the beginning, that's all, you know,

1821
01:15:53.840 --> 01:15:55.600
It's it's the beginning. He can't come out of the

1822
01:15:55.640 --> 01:15:58.000
gate with Ferris Bueller, now, you know, he can't come

1823
01:15:58.039 --> 01:15:59.760
out of the gate with planes, trains and automobile.

1824
01:15:59.840 --> 01:16:03.039
Yeah, you have to build up exactly. So that is

1825
01:16:03.119 --> 01:16:05.079
our final thoughts on mister Mom and as always been

1826
01:16:05.079 --> 01:16:07.000
like to end the show with a couple recommendations. I

1827
01:16:07.039 --> 01:16:09.800
have two for this week. First one being Michael Keaton's

1828
01:16:09.840 --> 01:16:12.520
first movie night Shift from nineteen eighty two. A mild

1829
01:16:12.520 --> 01:16:14.800
Manner Morgan attendant is assigned to the night shift and

1830
01:16:14.840 --> 01:16:17.760
his co new coworker along with his prostitute neighbor, convince

1831
01:16:17.840 --> 01:16:21.079
him running a prostitution out of the morde. Yeah, you

1832
01:16:21.079 --> 01:16:23.359
want to watch Night Shift after this kind of Oh

1833
01:16:23.359 --> 01:16:26.119
we should, We totally should. Second recommendation, I'm gonna go

1834
01:16:26.119 --> 01:16:28.199
with the Pacifier with the Diesel from two thousand and five.

1835
01:16:28.520 --> 01:16:31.159
Having recovered from wounds received in a failed rescue operation,

1836
01:16:31.279 --> 01:16:33.800
Navy Seal Shane Wolfe has handed a new assignment protect

1837
01:16:33.800 --> 01:16:35.960
the five Plumber kids from the enemies of their recently

1838
01:16:36.000 --> 01:16:39.359
deceased father, a government scientist whose top secret experiment remains

1839
01:16:39.359 --> 01:16:40.159
in the kid's house.

1840
01:16:41.439 --> 01:16:43.079
That's amateur hour, what you got.

1841
01:16:43.159 --> 01:16:47.039
I'm going with the film that the Pacifier wishes it

1842
01:16:47.079 --> 01:16:50.800
could kiss the boots of mister Nanny fucking as Nanny,

1843
01:16:52.039 --> 01:16:56.439
starring Hollywood Haul cog and himself. Yep, mister Nanny is

1844
01:16:57.279 --> 01:17:02.439
the quintessential ridiculous so and so is handed children's story,

1845
01:17:02.600 --> 01:17:04.840
which there were so many of those. It was such

1846
01:17:04.880 --> 01:17:07.000
a popular gimmick. What made sense because his kids would

1847
01:17:07.000 --> 01:17:09.920
like it? Yeah, you know so, but hul Cogan plays

1848
01:17:10.000 --> 01:17:12.359
mister Nanny. What more do you want from me?

1849
01:17:12.520 --> 01:17:12.840
People?

1850
01:17:12.960 --> 01:17:15.319
And also, if you've never seen mister Nanny when he

1851
01:17:15.479 --> 01:17:17.439
is during the opening credits when he's running on his

1852
01:17:17.479 --> 01:17:19.800
motorcycle and he passes a body of water. Watch a

1853
01:17:19.840 --> 01:17:22.279
man chuck his dog into the water that was caught

1854
01:17:22.319 --> 01:17:25.680
on camera. That's really fucked up, bizarre, it's so weird.

1855
01:17:26.279 --> 01:17:28.479
So that's gonna do it for mister mom. Would you

1856
01:17:28.560 --> 01:17:30.000
like to know what we're talking about next week?

1857
01:17:30.039 --> 01:17:33.760
As absolutely not continues absolutely not, no, thank you.

1858
01:17:33.800 --> 01:17:36.760
We're talking about the Player from nineteen ninety two. Mal

1859
01:17:36.800 --> 01:17:39.079
has just a small cameo in it, as does so

1860
01:17:39.239 --> 01:17:42.359
many celebrities. This is a movie that I recently discovered,

1861
01:17:42.359 --> 01:17:45.359
actually this year. I cannot recommend it enough. It's a

1862
01:17:45.399 --> 01:17:48.319
really really good movie about making movies in old time.

1863
01:17:48.199 --> 01:17:50.399
Hollywood, and it's a first time watch for me. Yes

1864
01:17:50.439 --> 01:17:52.680
it is, so I'll probably hate it. I do. It's

1865
01:17:52.720 --> 01:17:53.560
on Dave.

1866
01:17:53.800 --> 01:17:54.720
Do we have any emails?

1867
01:17:54.760 --> 01:17:57.279
So do we? Oh? Well, yes we do.

1868
01:17:57.359 --> 01:17:58.960
And I want to remind you if you're listening or

1869
01:17:59.000 --> 01:18:01.000
watching this, you can get a hold of us by

1870
01:18:01.039 --> 01:18:04.239
sending us an email at dooeven movie pod at gmail

1871
01:18:04.279 --> 01:18:07.600
dot com or going to dooevenmovie dot com. We love

1872
01:18:07.640 --> 01:18:09.640
to hear from you guys, whether it's recommending a movie,

1873
01:18:09.680 --> 01:18:13.439
giving us your thoughts, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera,

1874
01:18:13.560 --> 01:18:17.520
et cetera. So this email is from our good buddy

1875
01:18:17.560 --> 01:18:23.279
wolf Dan. It's the subject line is Serbian film joke

1876
01:18:23.399 --> 01:18:28.000
on monster maker Jesus. Oh, come on, guys, finish the joke.

1877
01:18:28.319 --> 01:18:30.000
I wish I could remember the joke.

1878
01:18:30.079 --> 01:18:31.399
I'm sure I had somebody with a baby.

1879
01:18:31.760 --> 01:18:33.960
For those who don't get it, familiarize yourself with a

1880
01:18:34.000 --> 01:18:37.960
Serbian film. It's probably the hardest film I've seen, though

1881
01:18:38.000 --> 01:18:40.319
I have yet to see The Green Inferno. I mean,

1882
01:18:40.399 --> 01:18:44.800
I wouldn't compare for nothing in common, he says. I

1883
01:18:44.920 --> 01:18:48.680
grew up on Face the Faces of Death generation when

1884
01:18:48.840 --> 01:18:51.520
those were the hardest core gross out films because they

1885
01:18:51.520 --> 01:18:53.520
were believed to be real, and to be fair, it

1886
01:18:53.680 --> 01:18:54.399
wasn't all fake.

1887
01:18:54.880 --> 01:18:57.960
But a Serbian film makes those look like a Disney documentary.

1888
01:18:59.119 --> 01:18:59.640
No comment.

1889
01:19:00.319 --> 01:19:03.520
Okay, love what you guys do. You're so entertaining your

1890
01:19:03.680 --> 01:19:07.039
yours furry, wolf Dan. I wonder if you realizes what

1891
01:19:07.119 --> 01:19:08.680
yours furry means nowadays?

1892
01:19:08.720 --> 01:19:08.920
Yeah?

1893
01:19:09.000 --> 01:19:09.359
Probably?

1894
01:19:10.319 --> 01:19:12.439
But uh, thank you, Dan.

1895
01:19:12.640 --> 01:19:14.800
Serbian film is not one that I would recommend, and

1896
01:19:14.840 --> 01:19:15.520
I'll just leave it at that.

1897
01:19:15.640 --> 01:19:17.760
Oh, we're covering it for Dave's next birthday, the hell

1898
01:19:18.000 --> 01:19:20.159
we are. Don't worry. It's my gift to you.

1899
01:19:20.319 --> 01:19:21.000
Oh thanks, Bud.

1900
01:19:21.159 --> 01:19:24.079
I'm always here for you man, don't worry about it.

1901
01:19:24.680 --> 01:19:26.920

1920
01:20:13.920 --> 01:20:17.640
If we get fifteen requests for Serbian film and we

1921
01:20:17.720 --> 01:20:18.119
have to do it.

1922
01:20:18.239 --> 01:20:20.079
No we don't. So, no we don't.

1923
01:20:20.720 --> 01:20:22.359
That's in the charter of the of the show.

1924
01:20:22.479 --> 01:20:24.840
Don't care. That will be my retirement from the show.

1925
01:20:25.760 --> 01:20:28.159
Oh man, okay, well I'll just manufacture it.

1926
01:20:28.279 --> 01:20:28.720
Oh there we go.

1927
01:20:28.840 --> 01:20:30.319
Oh we got fifteen emails.

1928
01:20:31.720 --> 01:20:32.560
While we're recording this.

1929
01:20:32.680 --> 01:20:34.960
People while we were recording people figured it out.

1930
01:20:35.119 --> 01:20:35.479
Crazy.

1931
01:20:35.720 --> 01:20:38.479
So but until next time, my friends, we will see

1932
01:20:38.600 --> 01:20:40.359
you next Tuesday.
