i remember seeing a movie on tv called the way back about men who escape from a soviet labour camp and have to walk four thousand miles to get to freedom and i spent the first five minutes of this video waiting for ben affleck to get to the siberian gulag before realising it wasnt the same movie
The sad thing is that the "true" story the Siberian escape was based on ("The Long Walk" by Slavomir Rawicz) was later exposed as a fabrication, and yet it was more believable than the plot and characters of this film. And the Long Walk story had a Yeti sighting in it.
"In the movie the character is divorced because him and his ex-wife, their son dies of cancer and the marriage can't last. Where as in real life, Ben Affleck just couldn't stop cheating on Jennifer Garner."
"Let's win this FUCKING game for coach Cunningham!" You can tell he went through a compelling character arc because he curses now. Cursing is really cool
Letting yourself spiral into a cataclysmic depression as opposed to making any effort to stop that progression and overcome adversity is also really cool and plot-worthy
Contrary to what you may think private catholic schools usually have the best players, because they essentially recruit the best young athletes to play ball for them.
These guys are great at roasting movies without giving a f*** who they insult. And kudos to whoever stitches together the video clips afterwards to go along with the review. Brilliant.
"Ben Affleck is your goto divorced guy" is the most accurate statement I've heard today, which tickles my funny bone rather violently. Edit: My most recently watched movie is Gone Girl btw, where he isn't a divorced guy, but he still does the sad divorced guy face half the time. Great movie, great divorced guy performance.
@@893loses There might be a joke or reference I'm missing in what you're saying, but [SPOILER WARNING] the movie definitely does not end with him in jail OR being divorced. That would have been a much happier ending than what actually happens, lol.
“In the movie the guy is divorced because the son dies of cancer and the marriage is too much to keep together… Ben affleck is divorced because he can’t stop cheating on Jennifer Gardner.” This quote is a perfect example of expectations vs reality
Dawn of justice or whatever the fuck that movie was called,was basically that,looking like shit feeling miserible barely able to contribute to the fight
"Paul Blart Mein Kampf" is definitely the funniest thing I've heard this year. We're only 3 days in to 2022, but I think that quote is going to hold me over for a few months at least.
I like how there is no coherent conversation in anything they talk about on their podcast that they can be seriously discussing a movie for like 5 min straight and then randomly start talking about how hot Bernie Mack's wife was within seconds
So instead of just making another baby or considering adoption, the ONLY way he can overcome grief is by coaching a high school basketball team while being completely sh*t faced the entire time. Amazing plot.
Hard to believe he isn’t just paraphrasing Wikipedia 90% of the time. His recollection of trash movies he watched ten years ago is incredible to be honest.
The problem with modern Hollywood is that most of them are so far removed from what most of us would consider to be "real life", that when they try portraying moments of human vulnerability and meaningful experience, it ends up being a cheap, cringey caricature of the genuine article. They also just don't understand modern film and television. Look at one of the (consistently) greatest creative minds in modern storytelling: Dan Harmon. In his own words, he grew up "worshiping at the alter of television" because that was all he had money to do. As a result, his understanding of what makes good television didn't come from ad revenue numbers and focus groups, but rather by having slowly developed personal preferences and fundamentally good taste. It's worth noting that Quintin Terentino spent something like a decade working as a video-store clerk before he started making movies. That's not at all to say the elites working as studio execs and producers don't often have good taste and well tailored preferences themselves, but simply that knowing the best build of yacht, or the crunchiest brand of caviar (is good caviar supposed to be crunchy?) won't help in writing immersive plot points guilded by memorable, character developing dialogue.
"well if Adam is gonna get cred for playing the jew-iest jew, then I'm gonna go and play some fuckin schizo mr potatohead looking neo-nazi with a black spray painted santa claus beard. then people will see that I *Kevin James* can also act."
what made it work, The Safdie Brothers wrote Howard with Adam in mind so you can see that the role fits him easily. He is playing a serious and darker version of his previous characters with chaotic and manchild personality.
I saw this movie for one of my friends birthday parties, we were all drunk as hell watching it and at the end when you said that it felt like you were just at a party with a basketball team you didn’t know that’s exactly how we all felt
i love that you can tell Nick reverse engineered the joke based on the punchline "i can't remember the titans", and then it didn't even really land lol
“It’s Like In Hoosiers, Dennis Hopper was the washed up Drunk Ex Player/Coach and helps Gene Hackman Coach,But Dennis is the main coach and just drunk the whole time..”-Nick
Honestly the movie was trying to be a sports movie but half ass the focus on the players which should be half the focus. But it was more so 40% Ben's drinking issues, 40% marriage issues and 20% basket ball team.
clicked on this video thinking it was a discussion about the 2011 movie 'The way back' a film about a group of inmates who escape a Siberian gulag and walk ten of thousands of miles to their freedom with virtually no supplies, it's an incredible story
I just want to thank you guys for mentioning The Sandlot. It's a movie that I watched when I was very young and I've been trying to find the movie since. I really loved it but forgot the name.
It's actually strangly common for people who went through Catholic school in their teenage years to be the least Christian people u meet where people who went before they were teens but had it at home to belive and be more Christian in how they act, it probably has something to do with your stage of questioning authority is also in the stage of your life with the most influence from an authority you have no say over
Literally nick describing the ending are my exact thoughts when I left the damn theater. I couldn’t take him showering and drinking a fucking beer in it. Whole movie would be better if I was as shit faced as Ben was making this.

Me too. It's how most of us remember the essence of the movie, but are foggy on the details. Makes the movie review feel somehow more legit.
