#146 - "Teen Wolf" (1985) with Gerry D, JB Huffman & Vinnie Brezinsky


Let's be honest: the '80s were a minefield for horror comedies. But for every Gremlins and Monster Squad, you had to suffer through duds like My Mom's A Werewolf or My Best Friend’s a Vampire.
A few films got the formula right, and one, in particular, became a cultural phenomenon. It wasn't about monsters in the closet or clowns from space—it was about basketball, best friends, and some serious growing pains.
So, practice your jump shot, crank up the Beach Boys, and get ready to van surf as Tim Williams and guest co-hosts, Gerry D, JB Huffman, and Vinnie Brezinsky discuss Teen Wolf from 1985 on this episode of the 80s Flick Flashback podcast!
Here are some additional behind-the-scenes trivia we were unable to cover in this episode:
- Harold Howard tells Scott, "With great power comes an even greater responsibility," which is an expression usually associated with Spider-Man. Screenwriter Jeph Loeb was also a comic book writer, having written Spider-Man comics.
- When Scott talks to Coach Finstock about potentially quitting the basketball team (around the 06:00 mark), this conversation was actually meant to happen much later in the film after Scott's first "Wolf-Out." Most likely, it would be the day after (around time markers 33:00 - 45:00). The clue is in the shirt Scott is wearing. When Scott speaks with the Coach, his shirt is green and black plaid, but when he talks to Boof in the next scene (around the 8:00 mark), his shirt changes to blue. The day after his first "Wolf-Out" when Scott returns to school, he's wearing the green/black plaid shirt again. For some reason, the filmmakers thought the talk between Scott and the Coach would work better earlier in the film than right before he transforms in front of everyone during the game.

00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:03,840
Let's be honest, the 80s were a
minefield of for horror
2
00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:06,240
comedies.
But for every Gremlins and
3
00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:10,080
Monster squad, you had to suffer
through some duds like My Mom's
4
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:12,800
a Werewolf or My Best Friend's a
Vampire.
5
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:16,520
A few films got the formula
right, and one in particular
6
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:20,160
became a cultural phenomenon.
It wasn't about monsters in the
7
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:21,920
closet or clowns from outer
space.
8
00:00:22,240 --> 00:00:25,720
It was all about basketball,
best friends, and some serious
9
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:28,440
growing pains to practice your
jump shot.
10
00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:33,240
Crank up The Beach Boys and get
ready to van surf as Jerry DJB.
11
00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:38,800
Me and I discussed Teen Wolf
from 1985 on this episode of the
12
00:00:38,800 --> 00:01:21,840
80s Flick Flashback Podcast.
Well, welcome into the 80s
13
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,400
flashback, everybody.
I'm your host, Tim Williams.
14
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:28,280
Tonight we have a full moon and
we've got a bad case of Wolf
15
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,240
fever.
To help me break down this
16
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:34,120
howlingly good classic, I've
assembled my own varsity squad.
17
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,720
First up, he's a man whose
knowledge of 80s films is
18
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,640
anything but average.
He's got the on air charisma of
19
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,520
Scott Howard on the basketball
court and the wisdom to know you
20
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,920
should always just be yourself,
Wolf or no wolf.
21
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:50,760
Please welcome the one and only
Jerry D from Totally Rad
22
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:52,000
Christmas.
How you doing, Jerry?
23
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:56,760
Give me a keg of beer.
I'm good.
24
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:58,920
Tim, how's it going?
Good, good.
25
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,320
Awesome next on the team is a
man who can surf the top of a
26
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:05,000
van with the best of them.
His cinematic insights or as
27
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,560
legendary as a party at Styles
house.
28
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,960
And he always brings a fun
loving scene stealing energy to
29
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:13,480
every episode.
It's a pleasure to welcome back
30
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,440
the man, the myth, the wolf, JB
Huffman.
31
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:18,880
How you doing JB?
I'm doing good, man.
32
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:20,960
I'm ready.
I'm getting ready to talk about
33
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:24,040
one of my favorite movies with
one of my favorite actors, and
34
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:26,400
all I can say is Brad Glass of
milk, Yeah.
35
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,840
And rounding out our starting
lineup as a guy who knows that
36
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,400
to win the game, you got to have
a great defense.
37
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,840
He's here to block any bad takes
and help us figure out if this
38
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:40,040
movie is a championship
contender or just one hairy
39
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,960
situation.
A huge welcome to the show,
40
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,240
Vinny Burzynski.
How you doing, Vinny?
41
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:47,360
Please tell me how to say your
name right.
42
00:02:47,920 --> 00:02:50,080
You did, you got it right.
It's hard to pronounce that,
43
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:54,160
that that Polish name.
And and by the way gang, I could
44
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:55,920
smell the liverwurst all the way
over here.
45
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,280
Well, welcome everybody.
We're here to talk about Teen
46
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:05,720
Wolf with Michael J Fox 1985.
You know, he was, he was, it was
47
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,280
a hit because it came out after
Back to the Future.
48
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:10,800
I think they were smart and
we'll talk a little bit about
49
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,200
that, how the marketing got a
little smart there.
50
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:19,160
Excited to have the crew here.
Vinny was with us a couple
51
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,720
episodes ago.
He's it's been about a year
52
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:26,560
since Vinny was with us for our
100th episode, Played the trivia
53
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,560
game with us and been trying to
get him back ever since and glad
54
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,960
to have him back on the show.
Yeah, I'm glad to finally fit in
55
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,520
here.
It's like I want to make an
56
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,920
excuse that I have a fun life,
but I really don't.
57
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,440
It's never really.
I'm either normally on Jerry's
58
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,360
podcast or I'm watching
football.
59
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,240
Yeah.
But yeah, yeah, well.
60
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,320
Glad to be back.
And I believe I won that, didn't
61
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,720
I?
Not that I'm bragging, I think.
62
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:52,000
Your team here.
Your team did.
63
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,240
Yeah, you did.
Wait, a Wait a bring everybody
64
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:56,760
up, up to speed.
So, Yeah.
65
00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,880
All right.
Well, let's talk about when we
66
00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:01,480
saw Teen Wolf for the first
time.
67
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:05,640
So, Vinny, since you're back
from a hiatus, why don't you get
68
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,880
you have you get it started?
When did you see Teen Wolf for
69
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,080
the first time?
Did you see this in the theater,
70
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:15,760
on VHS, on cable, or when it
made its debut on network TV?
71
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:23,880
So I saw it 85 I was 5 right?
So I did see on on VHS.
72
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,640
Yeah.
But I remember being a fan of it
73
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:30,880
more because I was in bed to
basketball at the time than I
74
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,840
was Michael J Fox and or
whatever.
75
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,280
I remember seeing, Oh, wow,
there's basketball in this
76
00:04:36,280 --> 00:04:36,840
movie.
Great.
77
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:39,360
And then I'm like, Oh, it's the
guy from Back to the future.
78
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,680
Cool.
And then I I started watching
79
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,360
it.
But it's one of those movies
80
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:48,640
when you see now on the network
TV, just don't turn off, right?
81
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:49,880
You keep it on.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
82
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,400
Like for me it's like this Red
Dawn.
83
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:53,240
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
84
00:04:53,280 --> 00:04:55,360
Yeah.
You know, the whole bunch of
85
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,040
Dylan's heads, if I see that, I
I keep it on.
86
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,200
But this one, I've always
watched on.
87
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,520
And I watched it again closely
today for the first time.
88
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:05,760
And I'm waiting to hear what
other people think.
89
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:08,280
But yeah, there was a lot of
stuff I missed when I was
90
00:05:08,280 --> 00:05:12,720
younger and over haven't watched
before and or haven't watched.
91
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,240
It or paid more innuendo than I
remember.
92
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,640
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like how did this?
93
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,520
How was this a PG movie?
Yeah.
94
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:21,280
You know what?
I was the 80s.
95
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,720
Yeah, I was looking at.
I was looking at that.
96
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,760
Literally how?
I mean there's literally a
97
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:28,120
shirt.
I don't want to say because I
98
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,440
know this is PG, but I love
styles of shirts.
99
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,280
But there was 1 and I'm just.
Like I need.
100
00:05:33,280 --> 00:05:35,560
That shirt, I remember saying
that when I was a kid.
101
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:36,800
My mom's like you don't say
that.
102
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:38,160
I'm like right, right.
It's on this.
103
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:42,120
It's a PG movie, yeah.
That's right, it must be OK.
104
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,840
Yeah, and what's funny is like,
I've, it was, I think it was on
105
00:05:45,840 --> 00:05:48,720
a couple of years ago, one of
the basic cable channels, and
106
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:50,680
they blurred out like that part
of the shirt.
107
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,040
And it's so funny because you
can tell when he's moving
108
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:54,480
around.
Like, it's like you're catching
109
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,800
a letter here and there because
whoever's doing the blur block
110
00:05:57,800 --> 00:05:59,320
thing can't get it perfectly
right.
111
00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:01,160
Couldn't quite keep up.
Oh, yeah.
112
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:04,320
So what about you, JB?
When did you see Teen Wolf for
113
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,960
the first time?
Well, that was the year that I
114
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,000
was born, so I definitely didn't
see it in theaters.
115
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:11,680
I.
Heard it from my mother's womb.
116
00:06:11,840 --> 00:06:16,840
But no, I was, I, I, I watched a
lot of those movies when I was a
117
00:06:16,840 --> 00:06:21,280
kid and I just, I can remember.
It might have been, yeah, it was
118
00:06:21,280 --> 00:06:23,760
definitely in the 90s when I
first watched it.
119
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:27,520
But I just, I don't remember the
first time that I watched it.
120
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:29,680
I just remember watching it a
lot when I was a kid.
121
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:31,800
And I'm like, I'm like you,
Vinnie.
122
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,640
Like I've always been a big
basketball fan.
123
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:40,240
And even now I, I coach
basketball and like, that was
124
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:43,520
the, the, the, what drew me to
in the beginning was they're,
125
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:44,800
they're playing basketball on
it.
126
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,760
And it's a high school movie,
you know, Back to the Future,
127
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:51,080
Michael J Fox.
I like Michael J Fox watching
128
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:55,680
family ties when I was a kid,
but now it's the basketball drew
129
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:57,560
to me.
So I was probably, you know, 5
130
00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:59,240
or 6 when I, when I first
watched it.
131
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:03,440
And it was probably just, you
know, showing on one cable
132
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:05,880
network or whatever.
I don't remember them ever
133
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,400
blurring that out though on
cable they like.
134
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,160
No, not on cable.
Yeah, Like regular TV.
135
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:14,080
Yeah, probably.
Yeah.
136
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,440
All right.
What about you, Jerry?
137
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:21,600
So yeah, I was also 5, so I
don't really remember exactly
138
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,800
when I saw it.
I think it was on VHS and I
139
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:28,160
because I remember seeing it at
the video store, but I know I
140
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:32,040
saw it all the time.
I don't know if it was HBO or
141
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:35,320
one of the other channels, but
this thing was always on.
142
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,960
And I loved it, man.
I loved it so much that I sent
143
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,760
you guys a picture.
I was Teen Wolf for Halloween
144
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,800
one year.
And and it wasn't just werewolf
145
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:48,400
specifically Teen Wolf, because
my mom, like those iron on
146
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,120
letters, She actually wrote Teen
Wolf on the back of that jacket.
147
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:52,800
Yeah, it was like super cool,
right?
148
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,920
This, this kid that turns into a
werewolf and then all of a
149
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:59,600
sudden he's awesome at
basketball and it's just, you
150
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,520
know, like all werewolves are.
Yeah.
151
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:05,040
But.
But it was just fun.
152
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:09,240
And no, I definitely did not
understand all of the jokes.
153
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:11,080
And there's a lot in there that
I didn't get.
154
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:14,720
But it was cool just to see him
look like this kid struggling
155
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:18,000
with stuff, You know, I was like
the little nerdy kid, super
156
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,360
scrawny.
So I was always like, not good
157
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,400
at basketball either.
So it was like, I get this guy,
158
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,560
it would be awesome to to like
Wolf out and just, you know, go
159
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:28,240
to town on on these basketball
guys.
160
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,040
But no, it just didn't quite
work like that for me.
161
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:33,440
But at the same time, I got to
live vicariously through Scott
162
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,440
Howard.
So yeah, great stuff.
163
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,600
So I'm a little different than
like Jerry's seen some of my
164
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,320
photos on social media, but I
was more like chubby.
165
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:45,080
Like I was a big fat kid and,
and the jersey never really fit
166
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:48,680
me properly.
So when I was going forth for
167
00:08:48,680 --> 00:08:50,120
this and I was like, yeah, it
would be cool.
168
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,480
I'm like Scott Howard, but I'm
living chubby's life.
169
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,480
Like I wasn't.
Eating an apple during a game,
170
00:08:55,480 --> 00:09:00,080
but like right, I knew I knew
that that tight fitting jersey
171
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:06,000
feeling I I fit in and I used to
type there's some photos out of
172
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,960
my social media team.
You can go look, but it's people
173
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:11,400
still like how you, that was
you.
174
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:12,760
And I'm like, yeah, I can't help
it.
175
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:13,960
Like what do you, what do you
want?
176
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,080
But he, he, he kept it.
He kept it real for all his
177
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:20,080
chubby guys.
He got some good shots in that
178
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:21,960
last bucket.
Yeah, He did ball game too, so
179
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:23,240
yeah.
So yeah, I mean he.
180
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:25,440
Didn't even look at the basket
and that stuff went in.
181
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:26,960
Not even like.
Yeah.
182
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:31,160
Like I heard that twine.
His his form wasn't good either,
183
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:33,240
but man, oh.
I don't know what you're talking
184
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:34,480
about.
That hook shot was cream.
185
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:39,440
Abdul Jabbar S.
The form for everybody was
186
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:41,240
driving me nuts to be.
Honest.
187
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,280
I'm I'm watching Michael J Fox
shoot.
188
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:49,360
I'm like dude, what is this?
Well, I just I just noticed it
189
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,760
today and we can go the the
layup that he made was the same
190
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:54,960
layup this taken from 5
different angles.
191
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,720
Yeah.
If you coach basketball JB, you
192
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:02,280
know how hard it is to hit that
that backboard, have it roll
193
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:03,880
around the front of the rim and
go in.
194
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:07,120
There's zero chance that that
happened any other time ever.
195
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:12,440
Like if it was going directly in
like that would say OK, but it's
196
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,360
that roll on the rim and it's
just a different angle.
197
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,840
They shot it from 5 different
angles, but it's the same exact
198
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,600
shot from 5 different angles.
Cannot.
199
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,360
I remember watching it as a kid
and I watched again today.
200
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:25,120
I'm like, it's just different
angles.
201
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:29,080
I remember tried to redo that
shot and I never could.
202
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:30,800
Like, I could never get that
angle.
203
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,400
He was such a terrible
basketball player that they were
204
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:35,800
probably like, Oh my goodness,
he finally made one.
205
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:40,400
Yeah, let's keep it and use.
It like man, this basketball
206
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:44,760
team, they're all like short
shaped guys I.
207
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:49,040
Mean Jerry, you grew up.
This was Pennsylvania
208
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:50,440
basketball.
I don't know what you're talking
209
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:51,680
about.
Like this was.
210
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,720
Like, I know this is supposed to
be California, but this is the
211
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:56,360
real life.
I was my Center for my
212
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:57,880
basketball team.
I'm 61.
213
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:02,200
Like, no, But again, I was,
Chubbs.
214
00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:03,640
I was.
Right, right.
215
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,760
Yeah, yeah.
And I'm from like South Texas,
216
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:09,080
where we're all like short
Hispanic guys.
217
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:12,160
It's really, it was a really
quick game.
218
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,520
The game was probably like 90
to, you know, 88.
219
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:16,560
It's like the.
First time making out the court,
220
00:11:16,560 --> 00:11:19,360
it was like it was like 3220. 80
for sure.
221
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:24,160
Yeah, well, it's the first game
when the coach is like, you
222
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:25,440
know, what do you mean you want
to forfeit?
223
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:28,840
I mean, you know, figure we get
out of here, you know, he can
224
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:29,560
beat some.
Traffic.
225
00:11:29,560 --> 00:11:31,560
Some traffic.
You guys want to, if you guys
226
00:11:31,560 --> 00:11:32,960
want to keep going, I mean, it's
up to you.
227
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:34,440
It's like, you know, we got a
point average.
228
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:38,440
We're trying to keep up, but.
Yes, I've never played a high
229
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,840
school game before 7:00 like
they were playing it like 2.
230
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:44,680
Yeah.
Yeah, 2:00 in the afternoon.
231
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:48,280
Oh man.
All right, back on topic.
232
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:49,280
So.
I can't remember.
233
00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:51,880
If I saw Teen Wolf in the
theaters, I know I saw Back to
234
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:55,280
the Future in the theaters.
If I did see Teen Wolf, I would
235
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:57,600
have seen it like maybe the
dollar theater, like after
236
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,080
they've been out for a while.
But I'm like you guys, I don't
237
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:03,680
remember if it was on cable or
like I know I just watched it
238
00:12:03,680 --> 00:12:07,200
over and over and over again.
And so, and I, I think I
239
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:10,920
actually, I think I recorded the
TV version and watched that a
240
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:13,640
few times because we'll get
into, we get to the trivia.
241
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,240
There were there are a couple of
added scenes that are in the TV
242
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,240
broadcast version that's not in
the theatrical version that I
243
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:21,800
kind of like.
I think I kind of remember that.
244
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,880
So we'll, we'll get it, but but
how long has it been since
245
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:26,280
you've rewatched it for the
podcast?
246
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:30,240
So.
I watched this three weeks ago.
247
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:32,760
This is another one that I
watched like maybe once A.
248
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:35,560
Year, Yeah, this, this once was
being your heavy rotation.
249
00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:38,200
I do.
I do love it, yeah.
250
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:42,440
What about you, JB?
It was probably just a couple of
251
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,200
years ago because I, I do
remember watching it and and not
252
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,400
hitting quite as much as it did
when I was a kid, but I still
253
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:53,720
liked it and enjoyed it.
But it was, that was when I
254
00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:57,440
first started seeing like the
bad basketball play.
255
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:01,120
But it really, really bothered
me.
256
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:03,760
Sometimes it sucks to grow up,
doesn't it?
257
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,600
It does man.
There's some.
258
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:11,400
There are certain movies that I
still have not rewatched since
259
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:13,640
the 90s because I don't want to.
Yeah.
260
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:14,960
You don't want to spoil it.
Yeah.
261
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:18,480
Don't want to spoil it.
No, Like, yeah, like Howard the
262
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:20,160
Duck.
I used to love that movie when I
263
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,360
was a kid.
I'm like, like, I'm like, I
264
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:25,120
don't want to watch it again
because I know it's going to be
265
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,160
bad.
I just watched that one like 3
266
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:32,600
or 4 months ago, yeah.
The first look, go back to the
267
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,000
episode.
The first half of that movie is
268
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,520
great.
It's the second-half where it
269
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:39,440
just goes like, what are we
doing?
270
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:42,160
That's like, it just, it goes
off the rails.
271
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:44,080
It goes off the rails.
Yeah.
272
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:46,080
But yeah.
But yeah, I agree.
273
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,040
Yeah.
I, I was telling somebody before
274
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,160
they're like, you know, I tell
people I have 80s podcasts,
275
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:52,840
like, oh, oh, man, I haven't
seen that movie in a long time.
276
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,040
I'd be like, yeah, hold on to
the memory.
277
00:13:56,680 --> 00:13:58,040
There's a few like that for
sure.
278
00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:00,800
Yeah, like but.
You said that, but like, I
279
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:02,880
watched a couple 80s movies
recently.
280
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:05,680
There were I was some YouTube
thing came on and was like
281
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,120
great.
The these movies that were like
282
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:10,840
apocalyptic movies.
I've never seen this one, this
283
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:13,080
one, this one.
Yeah, they were all pretty good
284
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:15,160
and relatable.
But I think it's one of those
285
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,400
things where people like love
home Alone.
286
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:19,920
But if you see Home Alone now
for the first time.
287
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,680
Oh yeah, yeah.
But some of these like hold up
288
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:24,680
like.
One of the great It is Christmas
289
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:29,080
movies of all time, Home Alone.
Vinny, how long has it been
290
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,480
since you rewatched Teen Wolf
before you rewatched it for the
291
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:34,120
podcast?
Normally it's on around
292
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:35,480
Halloween time.
Yeah.
293
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,920
So it's normally on AMC or one
of them.
294
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:40,760
So I'll, I'll catch it as it
it's on.
295
00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,800
Yeah, again, it's one of those
ones I just don't turn off when
296
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:44,800
it's on.
Yeah, Yeah.
297
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,920
But I mean I watched it today
but I feel like I see it every
298
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:49,840
year around.
Halloween.
299
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:52,600
That's some point, yeah.
Yeah, it does.
300
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:54,280
It does make its rounds like
once a year.
301
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:57,400
Like it's not one of those that
they play like year round, like
302
00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,760
you see every couple of months,
but like there's a certain
303
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,520
season where like it's on like
for a good, you know, four to
304
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:05,520
six weeks a couple of times
because I think it was on TVII
305
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,560
think it might have been on AMC.
I was going to say AMC.
306
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:11,320
Yeah, Like, maybe, yeah, like
two or three years ago, because
307
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:13,320
it was on and I was like, oh,
I'm going to watch it.
308
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:15,120
And my daughter came and she's
like, what is this?
309
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:17,320
And I was like, Oh my gosh,
you've got to watch Teen Wolf.
310
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:21,840
But unfortunately it was right
at that scene where after he's
311
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:24,560
been in the play.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
312
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:27,480
I'm like, we all remember that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
313
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:31,480
Like for me it was great, but
for my, you know, 413 year old
314
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:33,800
daughter, I was like, no, no,
no, I'll wait and let you see it
315
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:35,400
from the beginning.
We'll skip this part later, but
316
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:36,720
you don't want to watch it from
this point.
317
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:37,840
You need to see it from the
beginning.
318
00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:38,720
That's right.
That's.
319
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:41,680
Right, but yeah, but it this is
one that I bought, I bought the
320
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:44,920
two pack.
Yes, I do own Teen Wolf 2T OO
321
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:48,720
with Jason Bateman during his
Hogan family era.
322
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:53,160
But so so I would do watch this
one like maybe not every year,
323
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:56,520
but every couple of years I do
put it back on because it is a
324
00:15:56,520 --> 00:16:00,480
fun it it and sometimes it's I'm
like, you guys, like I want to
325
00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:02,800
watch them.
Like, oh man, is it going to be
326
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:04,160
as good as it was the last time
I watched her?
327
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,400
Am I going to like really like
see all the imperfections?
328
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,200
And even when I rewatched it
again this week, it's like I saw
329
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,680
the imperfections and at this
point I don't care.
330
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:14,520
Who cares?
Fun movie.
331
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,440
Fun movie so.
They weren't that off the wall,
332
00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:19,400
right?
Like, so the basketball
333
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:22,560
cutscenes, we'll talk about it.
Like, yeah, OK, now I'm watching
334
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:24,160
it.
But the rest, you're just like
335
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:26,720
it.
It's 80s.
336
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:27,160
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
337
00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:29,640
Yeah, yeah.
It's nothing to do with the
338
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:31,400
movie, it's just how 80s movies
were.
339
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,840
Made Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
There's there's one thing that
340
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:36,480
that caught my attention this
time.
341
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:38,640
We'll talk about it.
Maybe we'll maybe we'll talk
342
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:40,800
about it after you do storage or
pre production because I want to
343
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:43,320
hear your take on this.
But let's let's go storage and
344
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,560
pre production is not too long,
but we'll go through this.
345
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:48,680
But Teen Wolf was one of the
first scripts written by Jeff
346
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:49,640
Loeb.
Loeb.
347
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:52,800
Loeb, man, like, like comic book
writer.
348
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:58,000
Yeah.
You know, this That's that's
349
00:16:58,000 --> 00:16:59,880
big.
Yeah, man.
350
00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:02,240
Do you want commando?
I mean, like, yeah.
351
00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:04,000
Is he related to Lisa?
No.
352
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:08,640
No to the surprising success of
Valley Girl.
353
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:12,040
They wanted to make a comedy
that would cost almost nothing
354
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:13,680
and take very little time to
film.
355
00:17:14,079 --> 00:17:16,760
The project came together when
Michael J Fox accepted the lead
356
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,680
role and his Family Ties Co star
Meredith Baxter.
357
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,040
Bernie became pregnant, which
created delay in the sitcoms
358
00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,040
filming.
That allowed Fox time to
359
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,200
complete filming and then return
to a sitcom.
360
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,960
Because they won like and then
they filmed it like 21 days.
361
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,160
It was like super fast how it
was made.
362
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:33,640
Which can we talk about Michael
J Fox.
363
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:38,120
And like, this dude did
everything in 1985, Back to the
364
00:17:38,120 --> 00:17:40,600
Future.
He was still filming his show.
365
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,600
Plus Teen Wolf, Like, good for
him.
366
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:46,080
Talk about a hard working guy.
Yeah.
367
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:48,280
Yeah, dude was working.
So let's.
368
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,080
Yeah.
So the screenwriter, so Jeff
369
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:53,640
Loeb and he had another Co wrote
it with him, Matthew Wiseman.
370
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:56,280
They interviewed several
directors for the movie.
371
00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:58,440
They asked the directors what
they thought the movie was
372
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:00,200
about.
Most said it was about a
373
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,000
werewolf.
But Rod Daniel, who got the job,
374
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:05,640
was the only one who said it was
about a father and son.
375
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:10,400
So he's more than just a, you
know, just a werewolf teen
376
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,560
movie.
So which I think kind of helps
377
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:18,240
it have some, you know, makes it
more memorable than just your,
378
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:21,080
you know, just a teen comedy
werewolf movie.
379
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:26,640
So a budget of $4 million.
It started filming on November
380
00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:30,560
18, 8050, November of 1984 and
concluded the next month.
381
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:34,040
Yeah, 4,000,000 bucks was like a
drop in the bucket back then.
382
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:40,080
Before we get into casting, see,
I've seen the meme on Facebook.
383
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:42,400
I think I even reposted it on
Instagram.
384
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:46,120
It's a picture of, like, Michael
J Fox as the wolf playing
385
00:18:46,120 --> 00:18:48,360
basketball.
And The thing is, you know, it's
386
00:18:48,360 --> 00:18:52,920
an 80s movie when nobody reacts
when you turn into a werewolf in
387
00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:55,280
the middle of a basketball game
and the game keeps going.
388
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:59,560
And that is funny.
But there's a scene at the
389
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:04,760
bowling alley when you know the
Wells would.
390
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:07,440
Yeah.
Nick comes up to him and he
391
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,080
says, you don't scare me, freak.
Underneath all that hair, you're
392
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:13,120
just still a dork.
I've handled your kind before.
393
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,840
Your Mama used to steal chickens
out of the backyard until I blew
394
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:20,360
her head off with a shotgun.
And I was like, wait, OK, I just
395
00:19:20,360 --> 00:19:23,720
thought of something.
In this world, werewolves are
396
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:29,120
not uncommon, and they're real.
Like it Like, nobody's freaked
397
00:19:29,120 --> 00:19:30,560
out that he's a werewolf, You
know what I'm saying?
398
00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:33,240
Like, it seems like a very
normal thing.
399
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:35,640
And as a kid, didn't think about
that at all.
400
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:37,880
And maybe like, the other
thousand times I've seen the
401
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:39,280
movie, I just take it for what
it is.
402
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:43,960
But that one like little glimpse
or that little, you know, clip
403
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:49,000
of dialogue, I was like, wait,
so is it like, are there other
404
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:51,720
werewolves in the town that we
don't see wolf out?
405
00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:54,400
Like, you know, is it baby that
odd?
406
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:56,720
So what I mean, had you guys
thought of that?
407
00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:59,440
Is that ever crossed your mind?
It's funny that you said that
408
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:03,840
because today I caught.
I knew that before he talked
409
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:08,160
about how his dad got in a fight
with the vice principal as the
410
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,720
werewolf.
So this whole time he knew that
411
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:14,560
Scott could be a werewolf and he
didn't, like freak out or do
412
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:16,640
anything.
He was just hanging in the weeds
413
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,080
being like, well, waiting for
you to come out to get revenge.
414
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:24,840
I'm just like, so this dude was
not afraid of a wolf teenager
415
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:27,360
growing up with hormones?
Yeah.
416
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:33,000
And it dawned on me this time I
watched it that Scott's dad was
417
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:36,440
talking about, you know, I
thought I, I was hoping I
418
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:38,120
wouldn't have to explain this to
you because.
419
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:40,440
Sometimes this is the.
Generation.
420
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:42,560
But then I was like wait a
minute, wait a minute.
421
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:45,360
But his mom is a was a werewolf
too.
422
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:49,560
So I was thinking he got it from
his mom but I or from his dad.
423
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:53,560
But I guess that so.
So the two werewolves married
424
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:55,760
each other just like it was just
weird.
425
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,320
Oh, anyway.
The funny thing is the car.
426
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:03,000
Do y'all remember the cartoon?
I remember there was a cartoon,
427
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:04,840
but I don't really remember
watching the cartoon.
428
00:21:05,120 --> 00:21:08,440
Yeah, so in the cartoon they
like, really try to like, like
429
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,160
downplay the whole werewolf
thing.
430
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:12,760
Like it's they're trying to hide
it from the town and it's like a
431
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:14,400
big secret.
So it's a little bit of a
432
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:17,720
retcon, but like, yeah, it was.
It was completely different from
433
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:19,880
the movie where it's just like,
yeah, I'm a werewolf.
434
00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:23,560
I'm going to be upside down
doing a stand on this van.
435
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:25,880
Yeah.
I mean, I mean, think about it,
436
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:29,720
there's no, there's no scene in
the movie where when he turns
437
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:31,680
into werewolf, anybody freaks
out.
438
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:35,680
Like, no, they wouldn't, They're
not coming at him with torches.
439
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:38,560
They're not, you know, he's not
like the monster like you would
440
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:39,840
be expecting, like the monster
movies.
441
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,320
You know what I'm saying?
So it just it, I don't know why,
442
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:45,120
like today it was just like the
light bulb when I was like, wait
443
00:21:45,120 --> 00:21:48,760
a minute, you mean in this movie
werewolves are normal anyway.
444
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,280
I'm what I'm talking about is.
Normal, because I would think
445
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:54,760
that he wouldn't have freaked
out so much like it people had
446
00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:55,920
the note like that was the
thing.
447
00:21:56,120 --> 00:21:58,560
Yeah, yeah, it's kind of
contradicting itself because he
448
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:00,320
was freaking out like, oh,
there's such thing as
449
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:01,800
werewolves.
Because I thought the same
450
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,160
thing.
I'm like, well, if this guy, the
451
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:07,080
other guy knew, shouldn't it be
more out there?
452
00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:09,520
Yeah.
Yeah, it's kind of like every
453
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,080
time I think about that, I'm
just like, I thought about that.
454
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:14,520
I'm like, yeah, I think only a
few people knew.
455
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:16,520
I didn't know.
Maybe.
456
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:19,440
Yeah, it could be that, which is
why I probably didn't go into it
457
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:23,360
as much that given those little,
those little, those small little
458
00:22:23,360 --> 00:22:26,600
dialogues kind of gave you that
idea of like, OK, it's not
459
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:30,840
completely out of the, you know,
it's not just a a myth, like
460
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:34,440
they do exist, right?
Maybe they weren't as common as
461
00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:36,000
I was taking it, but go ahead,
Jerry.
462
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:38,840
Well, I was going to say also
like Thorne and his dad got into
463
00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:41,200
it, right?
So why wouldn't Thorne carry
464
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:42,920
around like a gun with a silver
bullet?
465
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,480
They look like like.
No, yeah, no way.
466
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:47,880
Well, what?
Again, if his dad in the movie
467
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:50,320
said it's not like you see it in
the movies, so maybe silver
468
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:51,960
bullets don't really come.
That's true.
469
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:53,200
Maybe.
Yeah, Yeah.
470
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,280
And like another thing that I
was wondering, like are there
471
00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:01,200
any other werewolf movies where
being turned into a werewolf
472
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:04,480
makes you more skilled at a
human game?
473
00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:07,640
Something that something that
dogs don't play, that humans
474
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,440
play.
I'm just like, I never thought
475
00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:13,520
about that when I was a kid, but
I'm like, why would that make
476
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:18,120
you better at basketball?
Yeah, werewolf, you can hear a
477
00:23:18,120 --> 00:23:21,040
dog whistle and you can do a
handstand on a moving van.
478
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:23,560
That makes sense that that
tracks.
479
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:25,840
Yeah.
But it's kind of like though,
480
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:29,640
like, you know, you see zombies
that are very slow and then you
481
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:33,400
have the ones in the what the
Will Smith movie that were like.
482
00:23:34,120 --> 00:23:37,480
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I am legend and like, yeah,
483
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:39,800
World War Z.
Yeah, for sure.
484
00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:42,440
All right, well, thanks for
humor me on that.
485
00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:43,360
Let's.
All right, let's jump into the
486
00:23:43,360 --> 00:23:44,640
cast.
Of course, we talked about
487
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:47,160
Michael J Fox as Scott Howard.
We've talked about Michael J
488
00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:48,720
Fox.
We did all three Back to the
489
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:51,640
Future movies already, So you
know him from that.
490
00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:55,320
We mentioned he was in the hit
sitcom Family Ties.
491
00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:58,560
He went on to star in other
films like Secret of My Success
492
00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:03,160
from 87 Casualties Award 89 Doc
Hollywood in 91 The Fighters.
493
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:05,680
Yeah, I love Doc Hollywood.
Me too.
494
00:24:06,120 --> 00:24:07,920
That's another one HBO showed
all.
495
00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:12,720
The time, all the time, yeah.
And yeah.
496
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:16,480
So I I just got the DVD or the
Blu-ray of the Frighteners,
497
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:18,240
which the director's cut.
So I'm going to watch that here
498
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:19,520
in a couple.
Weeks, that's a good one too.
499
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:21,720
Yeah, I like the frighteners.
Yeah, I like.
500
00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:26,080
Frighteners.
So yeah, Michael J Fox not a
501
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:29,280
good basketball player.
So behind the scenes we've got
502
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:31,480
already talked about he was
terrible.
503
00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:36,640
So college basketball player
Jeff Glosser was actually his
504
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:41,280
double, his basketball double.
And I think it they said it took
505
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:46,600
12 hours to get the the double
into the makeup to at least look
506
00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,440
like Michael J Fox in the
makeup.
507
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:52,440
So I'm like, Can you imagine
like having to play basketball
508
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:55,280
with all that stuff on you and
be able to make those shots and
509
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:58,160
stuff?
So, but, but yeah, but I also, I
510
00:24:58,160 --> 00:24:59,480
wanted to go back and look what
I was like.
511
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:02,960
Surely the double is taller than
Michael J Fox because he's only.
512
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:07,200
Like. 55, yeah, 55 something.
I mean, he's really short
513
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:09,840
because there's a scene where
like when he's in the wolf
514
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,560
outfit, he goes up to like,
chubby and I'm like, you know,
515
00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:15,480
Chubby's not that tall either,
but like, nobody's.
516
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,480
Everybody's towering over Scott
when he's regular, but like,
517
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:22,360
does he grow like another foot
when he turns into the Wolf as
518
00:25:22,360 --> 00:25:23,360
well?
So I don't know.
519
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:25,440
Something to think about next
watch.
520
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:30,160
So then we got James Hampton as
Harold, his dad, best known for
521
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:33,800
his TV roles such as Private
Hannibal, Shirley Dobbs and F
522
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:35,800
Troop.
He was in the Doris Day show
523
00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:38,320
Love American Style.
His movie roles such as
524
00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,480
Caretaker in The Longest Yard in
74, which I just watched a
525
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:44,160
couple weeks ago.
I've never seen the 74 version
526
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:47,320
which was really good.
He returned for the sequel Teen
527
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:52,360
Wolf 287 and is also in the
movie Sling Blade in 1996.
528
00:25:52,360 --> 00:25:55,880
So he actually auditioned and
originally had the role of the
529
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:59,520
coach in the movie.
It would have been a different
530
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:02,200
movie.
Yeah, but then when they saw Jay
531
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:03,840
Tarsus, you got it right as
Coach Bob.
532
00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:06,520
When they got Jay Tarsus, then
they decided that he would
533
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:10,480
better cast as the dad.
So which I think fit, you know,
534
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:13,000
the coach is his own.
We'll get to the coach in a
535
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:14,720
minute, but.
Man, I love the coach.
536
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:18,360
The coach is great.
But I'm going to be honest, like
537
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:22,160
most of the cast, except for
Michael J Fox, I knew from this
538
00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:25,160
movie.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
539
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:27,600
I like I really.
Didn't know that James Hampton
540
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:29,440
had been in anything else.
Same.
541
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:32,800
Teen Wolf too.
And then when I when I went back
542
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:34,840
and was watching the longest
shot, I was like, oh wow, it's
543
00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,120
the dad from Teen Wolf.
You know, even that movie was
544
00:26:37,120 --> 00:26:39,400
made ten years before Teen Wolf
was.
545
00:26:40,360 --> 00:26:42,600
Go ahead.
I did remember James Hampton
546
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:45,560
from Sling Blade, but I
originally saw him in Teen Wolf
547
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:48,480
and so when I when I watched
Sling Blade it was like, but I
548
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:51,880
think I saw.
I don't know if I saw Pee Wee's
549
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:54,680
Big Adventure before.
Yeah, I didn't.
550
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:55,280
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
551
00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:56,520
I didn't know him from Chubbs.
Yeah.
552
00:26:56,920 --> 00:27:00,120
And that's really his only other
like most notable role was like
553
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:04,560
his two biggest roles were this
movie and Pee Wee's Big
554
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:08,040
Adventure and we'll give you a
little cameo and Naked Gun.
555
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:10,480
That's it.
Yeah.
556
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:12,080
Yeah, that's right.
That's right.
557
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:16,800
I know you are, but what am I?
That is Mark Holton is his name
558
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:18,920
as Chubby.
So and that's his name in the
559
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:21,720
credits is Chubby.
So yeah, this.
560
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:25,960
This movie is the king of Nick
Dames, yes.
561
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:27,920
Like styles by.
Always.
562
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:31,160
Yeah, exactly.
I would love to be like this be
563
00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:33,880
called styles in high school.
Yeah, yeah.
564
00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:36,800
For granted I was called chubby
so I guess it was OK so.
565
00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:40,120
Look, I just wanted to be
friends with the guy named
566
00:27:40,120 --> 00:27:41,240
Styles in high school.
No.
567
00:27:41,360 --> 00:27:41,880
Exactly.
Yeah.
568
00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:48,480
Yeah.
Also, the Prince, the vice
569
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:52,120
principal's name is Rusty Thorn.
Yeah, what a great name.
570
00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:56,960
Rusty Thorn.
Speaking of nicknames, I didn't
571
00:27:56,960 --> 00:28:00,920
really even realize that these
people actually had full names.
572
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:03,240
Yeah, right, the cast.
So it's.
573
00:28:03,360 --> 00:28:05,000
Except for Chubbs.
Except for Marconi.
574
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:07,120
Yeah, Except for Except for
Chubby.
575
00:28:07,120 --> 00:28:08,000
Chubby.
Yeah.
576
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:09,120
Yeah.
Lisa Booth.
577
00:28:09,120 --> 00:28:11,760
Marconi was her.
Was her actual name really
578
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,840
Rupert Styles?
IMDb it just says Booth.
579
00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:16,000
Yeah.
Yeah.
580
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:20,080
And so I always thought the
Styles was like STYLES, but it's
581
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,000
Styles with an eye because his
last name is.
582
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,320
Stilinski yeah.
So at least, yeah.
583
00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,520
But where did you get Boof from,
Lisa?
584
00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:31,240
But you know, as it added to
this in several different, you
585
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:35,320
know, sources that Lisa Boof
Marconi was based on one of the
586
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:39,920
writers high school girlfriends
whose real name was Boof or I
587
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:41,320
guess her real nickname was
Boof.
588
00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:43,640
So I'm like, there's got to be a
story there.
589
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:44,960
Why?
I mean, you got to give us a
590
00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:49,120
story of why your name is Boof.
Or maybe not, but we're right
591
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:50,640
there with.
Her one that thought she was
592
00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:52,400
cuter than the other girl?
Absolutely.
593
00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:57,080
As a kid I did not, but now
definitely yeah.
594
00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:59,520
No, the whole time I I was
always like, why is he going for
595
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:00,480
Boof anyway?
Like.
596
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:01,640
Yeah, yeah.
I don't know.
597
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:03,840
I think parallel.
Kids are more exotic.
598
00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:07,520
Yeah, so.
I think as a kid, I as a kid, I
599
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:09,920
probably wasn't picking one over
the other, just like just take
600
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:11,160
them both.
But true.
601
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,760
Good point.
So but yeah, but Lisa Booth
602
00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:18,280
Marconi was played by Susan
Ursiti URSITTI.
603
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:22,160
She also was in the movie ZAP.
That was her role before this,
604
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:24,200
which is why she had cast in
this.
605
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:28,400
She was also had some television
guest roles on 21 Jump St. and
606
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:30,960
Charles in Charge, But I thought
she would have had a she was
607
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:31,520
great.
I don't.
608
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:34,520
I'm not I'm.
Surprised, I think the blonde
609
00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:36,400
also was on Charles in.
Charge she was.
610
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:39,200
Yeah, yeah, she was.
And so was our next person,
611
00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:43,960
Jerry Levine as Rupert, which is
why he doing by style Stilinski.
612
00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:48,400
He started on he started on
Charles in charge in 84 and then
613
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:50,360
he got his film debut in Teen
Wolf.
614
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:53,560
He started the ensemble
television drama The Bronx Zoo
615
00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:57,120
in 1987.
Other films include Iron Eagle
616
00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:01,000
in 86 K 9 and 89.
He was also in the born on the
617
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,320
4th of July in 89 with Tom
Cruise.
618
00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:06,960
He's actually but he became more
of a director.
619
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:10,920
He's done, he's done a lot of
directing of like TV shows now,
620
00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:13,240
but.
Oh yeah, he missed one of his
621
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:14,800
bet.
He missed one of his best ones.
622
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:19,360
TV show in the 90s anyone got?
It Seinfeld going places with
623
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:22,720
Alan Ruck and Heather Locklear.
Seinfeld, I think.
624
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:26,400
He was Mr. Mack on Boy Meets
World.
625
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:27,400
Right.
That's right.
626
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:28,880
I do.
I do have that on there.
627
00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:30,640
Yeah.
Boy Meets World, Chicago.
628
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:31,920
Hosts.
I remember watching the show
629
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:33,680
about Grace.
That's Styles.
630
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:35,640
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
631
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,800
With the cultist, right, like
the the cult leader.
632
00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:39,720
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
633
00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:41,120
Yeah.
Oh my gosh.
634
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,680
I want to, I want to see one of
those ones where Styles went off
635
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:46,640
the deep end.
Like, you know how they they try
636
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:50,280
to put movies together.
Styles, Styles couldn't take
637
00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:54,320
after the fame of of Scott in
Teen Wolf, he kind of went
638
00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:56,440
downhill and formed his own
cult.
639
00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:58,400
Yeah.
They ended up in Philadelphia.
640
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:04,080
This is where he met Sean.
Hunter because Styles is a
641
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:06,480
character in Teen Wolf too, even
though he's played by he's a
642
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:07,520
different.
Character, Yeah.
643
00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:08,800
Different actor.
Terrible.
644
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:12,200
Yeah, when we get into it,
unfortunately it's a 80s movie,
645
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:13,240
so eventually I have to cover
it.
646
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:15,000
But anyway.
Man, I like Teen Wolf too.
647
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,480
Yeah, I felt great, but I like
it.
648
00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:20,520
See, I bought the two pack.
I've watched Teen Wolf several
649
00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:22,160
times.
Every time I start Teen Wolf
650
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:23,360
too.
I don't make it through the.
651
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:24,640
End.
I thought that girl was pretty
652
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:26,800
cute too.
I have to go back and watch it
653
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:29,040
now.
So what's weird about Styles is
654
00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:33,720
every time I I watch the movie,
I expect him to look like Corey
655
00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:35,680
Feldman.
And then I see him and it's not
656
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,000
Corey Feldman.
And I know it's not, but I'm
657
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:41,320
like for some some reason, I see
Corey Feldman every time I take
658
00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:43,280
his styles.
I was like, but it's not him.
659
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:44,760
It doesn't even really look like
him.
660
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:47,360
Like, no, not at all.
That is now that is a character
661
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,520
that Corey Feldman probably
could have played because it's.
662
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:51,800
Oh yeah.
Very much in his wheelhouse.
663
00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:53,840
That might be why boredom at
that time.
664
00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:56,800
Probably not.
And he was too young at that
665
00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:59,200
time too.
Yeah, 85.
666
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:01,160
Yeah, he was too.
Yeah, definitely too young.
667
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:02,200
He didn't.
Anyway, how's it?
668
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:03,920
Nevermind.
I'm not going to say it, OK?
669
00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:08,080
Jared the Vine said.
Decades later, he's still known
670
00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:09,760
all over the world for playing
styles.
671
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:13,240
One time, a fan of the film
recognized him at the Western
672
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,680
Wall in Jerusalem.
Wow, yeah.
673
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:19,600
Yeah, so that's had to put that
in there.
674
00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:22,840
Then you got Matt Adler as
Lewis, kind of like the
675
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:27,240
forgotten character.
He's best known for supporting
676
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:30,000
roles in this Whitewater Summer.
One of my favourites that
677
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:33,120
nobody's heard of.
Dream A Little Dream and he
678
00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:35,400
starred in North Shore.
If you haven't seen Whitewater
679
00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:37,960
Summer, I'm going to tell you
right now, Kevin Bacon, Sean
680
00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:40,080
Astin.
It's a great movie.
681
00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:43,080
You got to see it.
So it was it was lost in video
682
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:46,360
and it was delayed in release
came out much later, I think,
683
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:47,960
which straight to video just
about.
684
00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:50,320
But I've seen the movie so many
times.
685
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:54,080
I love it and he is in that one.
Then we've got Jim Mccrell as
686
00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:57,400
Rusty Thorne as Jerry Mitchin as
the vice president.
687
00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:01,440
He was mainly like a game show
host in like the 70s and then he
688
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:06,320
moved into acting in television
and doing semi tough Harry's War
689
00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:10,320
several made for TV movies.
He also played a reporter in two
690
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:13,040
Joe Dante films The Howling and
Gremlins.
691
00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:16,760
And then he was in some TV shows
like Dallas Soap, Moonlighting,
692
00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:19,040
Golden Girls.
So yeah, he was definitely
693
00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:23,000
someone that I recognized by his
face, but I couldn't tell you
694
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:24,400
what.
Like when I saw that he was the
695
00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:27,680
the reporter in Gremlins, like
yeah, probably what I remembered
696
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,400
him from so.
Yeah, he's a like he's a guy.
697
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:32,240
Yeah, yeah, definitely,
definitely one of the guy.
698
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:36,240
So back up real quick though,
because on on Matt Adler, the
699
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:41,280
Lewis character, yes, did it
ever get resolved as to why he
700
00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:45,080
did not like Scott anymore?
I thought the same thing today.
701
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:46,920
He's like, why?
He was like, oh, right.
702
00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:48,920
Can they not have that, like,
something?
703
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,920
Yeah, The result of that, it's
almost like that was part of the
704
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:55,680
director's cut or something and
they just strapped it.
705
00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:56,440
Like what?
What?
706
00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:57,840
What happened, man?
Why?
707
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:00,000
Why does Lewis have so much beef
with Scott?
708
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:02,240
Right, because he was, he was
scared.
709
00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:05,040
Yeah, yeah, I think, yeah, I
think he was just terrified of
710
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:07,400
him and then left to hang in.
Yeah.
711
00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:10,760
I mean they only had 21 days.
Yeah, 21 days.
712
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:12,040
Yeah.
Oh, maybe.
713
00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:14,679
Yeah.
Yeah, maybe he's got some some
714
00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:18,520
haunting pass.
With he's got some werewolf
715
00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:20,719
PTSD.
Turns out they're all at that
716
00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:25,239
camp that the Howling set at.
Oh yeah, I.
717
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:27,800
Run through these pretty quick.
The last few, Mark Arnold played
718
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:31,480
Mick, Pamela's boyfriend and
Scott's nemesis.
719
00:34:32,199 --> 00:34:36,040
He was in a couple of B movies
like Transfers 4 and Transfers
720
00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:38,239
5.
He's also had minor roles in
721
00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:42,480
other movies like Threesome and
in 94, Blade Runner 2049 and
722
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:45,400
Zack Snyder's Justice League in
2021.
723
00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:48,880
Yeah, I mean, very, very small
role.
724
00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:52,239
After he filmed this movie, he
spent several months on the soap
725
00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:55,600
opera Santa Barbara, but then he
asked to be killed off the soap
726
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:58,760
by the time the film came out so
he could be free to promote it.
727
00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:00,160
I guess.
I really thought this was going
728
00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:02,840
to be his big break.
And give them all the acting
729
00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:05,480
roles.
But it did not Jay Tarsus we
730
00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:09,000
mentioned before as the coach.
He's known more for a as a
731
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:12,280
writer, executive producer.
He created and produced The Days
732
00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:15,440
and Nights of Molly Dodd and the
Slap Maxwell Story and Co
733
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:18,480
created Buffalo Bill.
Both of those were with Dabney
734
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:19,720
Coleman.
Oh, yeah.
735
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:20,640
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He was.
736
00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:22,960
He was also an executive
producer on The Bob Newhart
737
00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:25,320
Show.
So, yeah, but the coach, I mean,
738
00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:30,840
one of the best characters,
totally. 3 rules I'll live by
739
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:33,920
Yeah, never play cards with the
guy who's got the same last name
740
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:35,640
as a city or same person name
is.
741
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:38,160
Never get less than 12 hours.
Every less than 12 hours.
742
00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:39,680
Yeah.
And never go out with the woman
743
00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:41,600
with the tattoo of a dagger on
her body.
744
00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:45,680
Yep, you you follow those.
Everything else is cream.
745
00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:46,640
Cheese.
Cream cheese.
746
00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:49,120
I've.
Never heard anybody else say
747
00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:50,120
that.
Cream cheese.
748
00:35:50,240 --> 00:35:52,640
You tell your your players all
the time, right?
749
00:35:52,720 --> 00:35:54,760
I love that scene with him and
and coach, like, you know, we
750
00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:56,280
told you we we could come and
talk about anything.
751
00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:57,240
Yeah.
Yeah.
752
00:35:57,240 --> 00:35:59,640
What you got, you know, and he
tells us like, you know, I'm
753
00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:04,040
really busy, you know, but you
come back anytime you want to
754
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:04,920
talk.
I'm here, you know?
755
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:09,520
Mikasa Sukasa.
It's like I didn't catch that
756
00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:11,040
until I watched it as an adult
either.
757
00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:14,360
It's like I'm always available
but I'm right now basically.
758
00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:16,840
You got a job with your old man,
I should be asking you for
759
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:20,560
money.
And then, like when he tells him
760
00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:23,840
the story about the kid with the
yeah, yeah, yeah, cripple, yeah,
761
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:26,320
yeah, he's.
In bad shape, What happened?
762
00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:28,000
To him, I don't know, he was
third string, yeah.
763
00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:30,240
I didn't I.
Didn't name him anyway.
764
00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:33,160
I'm a starter.
That's what I'm saying, Scott.
765
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:35,400
We got to keep you guys.
You can't give up now.
766
00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:38,960
Yeah, yeah, You're a starter and
you already got a job.
767
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:42,600
Like, like he's just made this
about a job and put his position
768
00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:45,400
on the court.
Like it's just like this, OK.
769
00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:47,840
Didn't even complain about the
IRS one time.
770
00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:49,440
Yeah, he's in the same scene.
He's.
771
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:51,400
Like I can't help.
You with your.
772
00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:55,400
Problems because they have the
IRS breathing down my throat.
773
00:36:55,720 --> 00:36:58,400
Because they go after so many
high school basketball coaches.
774
00:36:58,400 --> 00:36:59,960
Yeah, yeah, that's that's top of
their list.
775
00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:03,480
Right.
Exactly or no?
776
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:06,760
No, my favorite coach is the IT
doesn't matter how you play the
777
00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:07,960
game, it's whether you win or
it.
778
00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:10,080
Doesn't matter all that.
And even that, yeah, even that
779
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:12,200
doesn't.
Matter, dude.
780
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:14,480
I had a coach that used to say
that to me all the time.
781
00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:16,720
It doesn't matter how you play
the games whether you wouldn't
782
00:37:16,720 --> 00:37:19,000
lose.
All right, last two here.
783
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:22,240
Scott Paulin as Kirk Lolly, the
drama teacher.
784
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:25,520
He was in the movie The Right
Stuff in 83.
785
00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:29,240
He was also in Cat People, The
Accused in 88, Turner and Hooch
786
00:37:29,240 --> 00:37:32,320
in 89.
I Am Sam in 2001, and he
787
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:36,400
portrayed Red Skull in the 1990
Captain America movie.
788
00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:38,760
You ever want to sit through
that?
789
00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:42,520
He's in that as well.
I don't recommend it, but all
790
00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:45,640
right, right.
And then I recognized the name
791
00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:49,360
Doug Savant.
Savant Savant in the credits,
792
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:52,280
but he played the other teammate
like him and Chubby.
793
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:55,760
But Doug Savant's known for
being on Melrose Place from 92
794
00:37:55,760 --> 00:38:00,120
to 97 and also in Desperate
Housewives from 2004 to 2012.
795
00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:03,920
So that's why I recognized his
name, even though I didn't watch
796
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,640
either of those shows.
But I didn't recognize his name.
797
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:11,240
A little too bit about the cast,
and we'll move on to the next
798
00:38:11,240 --> 00:38:14,320
section.
If the teen actors seem old to
799
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:15,840
be in high school, it's no
wonder.
800
00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:21,480
Michael J Fox was 23, Harry
Levine was 27, Mark Holden, who
801
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:26,720
played Chubby, was 26 and Mark
Arnold, who played Mick, was 27.
802
00:38:26,720 --> 00:38:28,720
And I could have swore he was at
least 30.
803
00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:31,640
Yeah, for real.
But that's also the 80s.
804
00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:32,400
Everybody.
Oh yeah.
805
00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:34,760
Everybody looks old.
Yeah, yeah.
806
00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:37,920
I mean no one was only 34 in in.
Cheers.
807
00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:41,520
Yeah, exactly.
Sure, that still blows my mind.
808
00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:46,000
But the the one the one you
missed and this is only the I
809
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:49,760
knew her from a different movie.
Not this because OK I I love 80s
810
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:52,840
B movies, horror movies or
Griffin was in a never see
811
00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:55,280
cheerleader camp.
Oh wow.
812
00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:56,920
OK, OK.
Deep cut.
813
00:38:57,240 --> 00:38:58,520
Yeah.
Oh, it's a deep, deep.
814
00:38:58,520 --> 00:38:59,800
Cut.
I mean, I remember it was sleep
815
00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:00,920
away camp.
Yeah.
816
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,920
And then I was like, you know,
in the 90s I'm like, oh, I'm
817
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:07,000
going to do this.
And then it's like she went on a
818
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:10,160
little left curve from from Teen
Wolf.
819
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:12,800
Yeah.
I was just like, I know this
820
00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:14,280
girl.
And then it was like, look at
821
00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:15,360
him.
Like, that's definitely the girl
822
00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:17,360
from Teen Wolf.
But it's one of those ones, if
823
00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:20,680
you've never seen Sleep
Sleepaway Camp, I think it's
824
00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:22,200
called.
There's one called Cheerleader
825
00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:23,480
Camp.
Oh yeah, yeah.
826
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:25,360
These be horror movies.
Yes, you're right.
827
00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:27,720
I did skip over Lori Griffin,
who played Pamela.
828
00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:30,880
Yeah, his Crush, Cheerleader
Camp and Aloha Summer.
829
00:39:31,240 --> 00:39:33,760
She also had guest roles on
Charles in Charge and Hwy. to
830
00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:34,520
Heaven.
So yeah.
831
00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:38,520
Yeah, but those are excellent
slasher movies.
832
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:43,600
Excellent.
I mean 80s was the prime B movie
833
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:47,600
B horror movie decade I mean.
Yeah, for sure.
834
00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:51,480
And and they're are they worth
watching?
835
00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:54,040
Probably not, but they're are
they entertaining?
836
00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:57,440
Absolutely so.
So so here's a question that
837
00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:00,720
like I remember for this because
I I was a big wuss, still kind
838
00:40:00,720 --> 00:40:02,520
of am even though I'm 45 years
old.
839
00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:04,480
I remember go to my parents, be
like.
840
00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:09,200
Is Teen Wolf scary?
Am I going to be scared?
841
00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:13,160
No.
Is Michael J Fox is probably not
842
00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:14,400
scary?
OK.
843
00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:18,760
And it really isn't like there's
nothing that's really scary
844
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:21,920
about it at all.
And it's very, it's really, it's
845
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:24,080
really like the werewolf part is
almost.
846
00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:28,160
That's probably the scariest.
Part Yeah, yeah, like his first
847
00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:29,600
transformation.
Yeah, his transformation.
848
00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:32,520
And even that is not that bad.
I mean, it's like if you saw the
849
00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:34,360
thriller video, you pretty much
saw his.
850
00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:35,280
Transformation.
Right.
851
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:36,640
Exactly.
Yes.
852
00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:39,480
I mean, it has it has a cool
front cover that was on the VA,
853
00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:40,560
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
854
00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:43,280
It's also the Reanimator.
And I learned my lesson quickly
855
00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:45,040
after that.
It's a whole different type of
856
00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:46,400
movie there.
Yes.
857
00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:48,920
Yes.
All right.
858
00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:51,280
Well, let's jump into iconic
scene.
859
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:55,120
So if someone says Teen Wolf,
what's the first scene that pops
860
00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:57,160
in your mind?
And I'll start with Jerry.
861
00:40:57,400 --> 00:40:59,720
There's like, so many that kind
of popping together.
862
00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:04,360
Probably the very first one that
comes to mind is the Give me a
863
00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:05,760
keg of beer.
Yeah.
864
00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:08,360
And his eyes glow red and.
Oh yeah, just.
865
00:41:08,720 --> 00:41:11,880
Because they film it right?
The, the, the lenses, they use a
866
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:15,480
lot of little lens tricks and
it's just yeah.
867
00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:19,040
So that's probably the one that
first pops in my mind.
868
00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:22,720
OK, what about you, Vinny?
Can I have two?
869
00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:24,160
Because there's two that just
pop up.
870
00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:25,160
That's fine, Yeah.
I mean.
871
00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:28,600
So the first one is the van
scene.
872
00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:30,960
I've actually tried it.
Oh, wow.
873
00:41:32,240 --> 00:41:33,920
Look, I mean, look, I grew up in
the backwoods.
874
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:37,440
So you go do it slow.
The thing that always blew my
875
00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:40,560
mind, even as a kid, I'll be
like, there's no way he could be
876
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:42,840
doing flips because the van
would be moving forward.
877
00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:45,920
So if he did a flip going in the
air and he would fall down.
878
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:49,600
And we've tried it.
We tried the van surfing buddy
879
00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:51,560
of mine had one of those van
like that.
880
00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:56,680
It's a lot harder than it looks.
And then the second one was the
881
00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:58,480
party scene.
Ruined my whole.
882
00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:01,160
Oh, I know.
Yeah, view of view of high
883
00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:03,520
school parties.
Oh yeah, I was the I was the
884
00:42:03,520 --> 00:42:05,560
chubby guy, and there was never
once worst.
885
00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:08,640
My best friend threw jello down
a girl shirt and I was able to
886
00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:09,720
go get it.
Right.
887
00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:13,760
The whole entire time I was
expected to be.
888
00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:15,120
Locked in a closet?
Yeah.
889
00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:16,640
Exactly.
Yeah, nothing.
890
00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:18,880
Like where did they, where did
they get the random jello from?
891
00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:21,760
Like I need to go to these
parties.
892
00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:23,600
They didn't have them in
Nowhere, Pennsylvania.
893
00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:26,040
My bowl of jello is nowhere to
be found.
894
00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:29,960
Party.
That party was ridiculous.
895
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:31,600
But every 80s?
Party.
896
00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:35,160
Yeah, every 80s party was crazy.
Every 80s party was Wilder than
897
00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:37,440
any party I went to.
Yeah, and I thought I was.
898
00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:40,520
A big party, 90s party had a
dance scene in it, and then that
899
00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:43,480
never happened either, too.
Yeah, She's all that.
900
00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:44,160
Yeah.
Yeah.
901
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:49,400
I mean, what about the whole
like, being tied up together and
902
00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:54,480
like, yeah, yeah, that was OK.
I've never, ever seen anything
903
00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:57,520
like that, not even in a movie.
Like what that that happened?
904
00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:00,480
Right now, I did, I did read
some of that.
905
00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:02,600
I think it was, I don't know if
I put it in the notes or not,
906
00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:08,920
but the, I think the writers
went to like a local College in
907
00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:12,240
Pennsylvania and asked about
like what the parties were like.
908
00:43:12,240 --> 00:43:14,760
And they used some of the
stories they heard for
909
00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:17,600
inspiration for the party scene.
So who knows?
910
00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:20,600
You know something, sometimes
fact is stranger than fiction,
911
00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:21,840
so you never know.
These guys.
912
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:24,840
Don't have their own places.
Yeah, yeah, for real.
913
00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:27,520
I have heard about, you know,
being locked in the closet
914
00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:29,360
thing, but.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
915
00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:30,320
Well, yeah.
Well, yeah.
916
00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:32,240
Like 7 minutes and 13 going on
30.
917
00:43:32,240 --> 00:43:33,600
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, All right.
918
00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:36,200
Well, what about you, JB?
Iconic scenes.
919
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:41,440
Yeah, well, honestly, the one
that pops up in my head was the
920
00:43:41,440 --> 00:43:43,920
the high school dance scene when
they're when they're all yeah,
921
00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:46,560
it's almost like Thriller, you
know?
922
00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:49,080
This song is awesome.
Yeah.
923
00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:51,200
Big Bad Wolf by the Wolf
sisters.
924
00:43:51,240 --> 00:43:53,160
Yeah.
You sure don't look like no
925
00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:58,240
grandma pearly white.
I always want to think of Teen
926
00:43:58,240 --> 00:44:00,200
Wolf.
I think about that song about
927
00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:02,200
them dancing, the the little
wolf dance.
928
00:44:02,720 --> 00:44:04,360
It's almost like Michael
Jackson's, really.
929
00:44:04,720 --> 00:44:06,760
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, there's
there's three songs, but I
930
00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:09,480
always think of when someone
says Teen Wolf, what is that one
931
00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:12,360
that you're talking about?
The other one is win in the.
932
00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:15,280
End win in the end, yeah.
And it's, oh, it's on my
933
00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:18,240
playlist for sure.
And then the last one is like,
934
00:44:18,240 --> 00:44:20,520
after they win Shooting for the
Moon.
935
00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:23,120
Oh yeah, yeah.
It's such a, it's such a slow
936
00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:25,520
song to be like.
So 80s, yeah.
937
00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:29,680
It's it's just like, OK the love
theme from Teen Wolf to play
938
00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:31,400
with it.
That's right.
939
00:44:32,680 --> 00:44:36,320
So all right, for I, so for me,
iconic scenes, I think for me, I
940
00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:38,480
always think about him playing
back a lot of the basketball
941
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:41,800
scenes of him as the, as the,
the, as the wolf.
942
00:44:42,240 --> 00:44:43,600
That, that that's what I
remember.
943
00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:47,840
And then the scene when he's
he's trying to get to a
944
00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:50,320
different bathroom and he's
running down the hall.
945
00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:55,480
He's sliding down the, you know,
sliding on the wet floor and he
946
00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:58,000
and then he gets down to the
basement or like, you know, the
947
00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:00,840
gym and he's trying to hide his
hands.
948
00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:04,680
You don't have a magic marker.
Nice Principal comes in and is
949
00:45:04,680 --> 00:45:06,360
asking him.
So yeah, that that scene I
950
00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:08,160
always remembered until that was
a good scene.
951
00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:11,520
All right.
What about favorite scenes?
952
00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:14,200
Any favorite scenes you want to
talk about?
953
00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:19,080
Well, the the ending basketball
yeah, with win in the end, it's
954
00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:21,320
just like that whole section is
is amazing.
955
00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:24,000
I mean, it's terrible
basketball, but like, Oh yeah,
956
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:26,160
yeah, it's a great scene.
Yeah, yeah.
957
00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:28,840
I.
Mean it was cool that people see
958
00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:31,160
it was cool to see them win it
without the wolf.
959
00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:35,280
Yeah, yeah.
Now how realistic that is, I
960
00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:36,520
don't know.
Right.
961
00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:38,920
The Dragons were like super
awesome and.
962
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:42,720
Yeah, the way they beat them in
the very first game, like could
963
00:45:42,720 --> 00:45:45,600
they really actually even
compete against them?
964
00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:47,280
And it's.
And it's the line that he says
965
00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:49,160
he's like, you know, we're in
the championship.
966
00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:51,480
Doesn't matter how we get here.
We're here now.
967
00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:54,720
We can win it.
Like that's not usually because
968
00:45:54,720 --> 00:45:58,160
like, that sounds good.
Yeah, it doesn't work like that.
969
00:45:58,160 --> 00:45:58,640
How?
It works.
970
00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:00,720
It doesn't matter how he got
here.
971
00:46:00,720 --> 00:46:02,400
We're here now, so we deserve to
be here.
972
00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:07,360
Well, not really.
One of my favorites is when he
973
00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:09,840
has the, he gets the part right
in the place.
974
00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:11,840
Yes.
And he's like, and he's like the
975
00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:13,640
worst actor.
He's like the worst hero.
976
00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:16,120
Burn the fields.
Yeah.
977
00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:18,720
And when you're done with that,
burn the house.
978
00:46:18,720 --> 00:46:20,920
The house, right?
It's like that was.
979
00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:23,920
Tilted and something.
Yes, yeah, yeah.
980
00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:28,320
The the theatre teacher was one
of my favorite characters too,
981
00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:31,640
because he's just like, you
know, no wolf, no parts.
982
00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:33,360
Yeah.
So.
983
00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:35,920
But like, yeah.
Do you have my mauve?
984
00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:39,320
I I asked for mauve, not
lavender, you know.
985
00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:42,560
Are you from the hardware store?
Like it's just the overly
986
00:46:42,560 --> 00:46:45,320
dramatic drama teacher in high
school.
987
00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:48,000
For real.
I think my, honestly, I think my
988
00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:51,960
favorite has got to be, and it
was mentioned earlier, was the
989
00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:53,560
urban surfing.
Yes.
990
00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:59,200
Like I just, and honestly, I
think the Styles 1 was like the
991
00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:01,800
one that I always remember, I
guess because I saw it first.
992
00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:04,760
Yeah.
But I just always thought that
993
00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:09,040
was so cool.
Like, I've never tried it like
994
00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:12,680
Vinny said he did.
But yeah, I always thought it
995
00:47:12,680 --> 00:47:14,720
would be cool to do it.
But I'm yeah, for sure.
996
00:47:14,720 --> 00:47:16,240
I've always been a big scaredy
cat.
997
00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:19,240
Well, you know, Styles wasn't
doing wasn't trying to do all
998
00:47:19,240 --> 00:47:20,680
the stunt.
Like he wasn't doing the hand
999
00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:23,240
stands in the backflip, so his
was more believable.
1000
00:47:23,240 --> 00:47:26,000
So it's like, I could do that,
but when Scott gets up there,
1001
00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:27,280
it's like, yeah, I'm not going
to do that.
1002
00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:31,960
And I think, I think watching it
one time with my dad, I think it
1003
00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:33,080
was my dad that made this
comment.
1004
00:47:33,080 --> 00:47:35,680
He was like, that's not real
because, you know, there's going
1005
00:47:35,680 --> 00:47:37,440
to be some power lines he's
going to have to duck under.
1006
00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:39,880
That's not true.
Thanks for the logic, Dad.
1007
00:47:39,880 --> 00:47:40,960
Thanks for taking me out of the.
Movie.
1008
00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:43,320
Well, he almost did hit the
street sign when he was doing
1009
00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:44,480
his hands.
Oh yeah.
1010
00:47:44,640 --> 00:47:48,200
He did, yeah.
So what about favorite scenes
1011
00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:49,560
for you Vinny?
You got any that you want to?
1012
00:47:49,720 --> 00:47:52,680
Yeah, so it and it's kind of one
that gets overlooked, but I
1013
00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:56,080
remember watching it as a kid
and I'm sure I tried it at some
1014
00:47:56,080 --> 00:47:57,880
point because I was an idiot
when I was a kid.
1015
00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:01,880
But weren't we all?
When they go into the pizza
1016
00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:05,520
place and randomly someone threw
him a beer, you know, he's only
1017
00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:07,320
18, and he bites it.
Yeah.
1018
00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:09,120
So he's everywhere.
Yeah, yeah, I'm sure.
1019
00:48:09,120 --> 00:48:10,640
I'm sure I tried that at some
point.
1020
00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:13,080
But it's always like one of my
more memorable scenes.
1021
00:48:13,600 --> 00:48:15,960
But it's like, where did you get
the beer from?
1022
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:18,560
Like, yeah, I'm sure the pizza
place didn't serve it.
1023
00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:20,960
And then no, right.
So randomly someone was
1024
00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:24,120
carrying.
There was so much random stuff
1025
00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:26,200
in the movie if you watch it.
Yeah.
1026
00:48:26,840 --> 00:48:31,760
Like I'm going forth and I've
never been into a hardware store
1027
00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:34,560
where there's a dog whistle.
So where did the dog whistle
1028
00:48:34,560 --> 00:48:37,160
come from?
But there's also this the random
1029
00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:40,280
bowl of popcorn that people are
eating out of on the front
1030
00:48:40,280 --> 00:48:42,600
counter of the where the
checkout is.
1031
00:48:42,600 --> 00:48:44,200
Sure.
Cuz you're going.
1032
00:48:44,240 --> 00:48:47,280
Yeah, cuz people just randomly
had to go through like randomly.
1033
00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:49,280
I'm going to eat a piece of
popcorn out of this.
1034
00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:51,400
You know, there weren't there
wasn't germs in the.
1035
00:48:51,400 --> 00:48:55,080
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, like peanuts at the bar.
1036
00:48:55,080 --> 00:48:56,600
So that's.
That's right.
1037
00:48:56,640 --> 00:48:59,400
But everyone was just going by
and grabbing popcorn from this
1038
00:48:59,400 --> 00:49:02,160
yellow tub and it's just like,
no.
1039
00:49:02,560 --> 00:49:04,200
Just small town living man
Small.
1040
00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:08,000
Town, I could see a hardware
store at a small town selling
1041
00:49:08,600 --> 00:49:11,400
all kinds of things like even
including a dog whistle and
1042
00:49:11,400 --> 00:49:14,280
probably lots of like because
that's probably their only
1043
00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:15,200
option.
You know, they didn't have
1044
00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:16,960
dollar generals on every corner
back then.
1045
00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:20,280
We had a small town store and I
even think I went in there
1046
00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:22,640
asking for a dog whistle one
time and people were looking.
1047
00:49:22,640 --> 00:49:23,640
At me.
Like, why the hell do we?
1048
00:49:23,640 --> 00:49:25,800
Have a dog.
But why?
1049
00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:29,080
Why would anyone be letting a
kid be blowing the dog whistle
1050
00:49:29,080 --> 00:49:31,680
anyway?
I found my parents anywhere near
1051
00:49:31,680 --> 00:49:33,440
it.
Yeah, hey, let's put a put a
1052
00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:35,720
random whistle in my mouth,
right?
1053
00:49:35,720 --> 00:49:37,480
The kid was like inhaling that
thing.
1054
00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:42,200
He's like, yeah, he's like, it
doesn't work.
1055
00:49:43,840 --> 00:49:47,280
I think this is the first movie
where I realized what a keg was.
1056
00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:52,760
Yeah, no.
Kegs weren't big up here back in
1057
00:49:52,760 --> 00:49:54,080
the day.
They were party balls.
1058
00:49:54,080 --> 00:49:55,400
I don't know.
Did you have them down your way,
1059
00:49:55,400 --> 00:50:01,040
Jerry, or do you guys am I that
old party ball is party ball.
1060
00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:04,440
Looks like a gigantic Christmas
tree ornament, right?
1061
00:50:04,640 --> 00:50:10,320
So OK, held like 30-40 beers and
it was only about yay big like
1062
00:50:10,320 --> 00:50:12,880
this, but you could put it in
the trunk of your car And this
1063
00:50:12,880 --> 00:50:15,880
is my like hoodlum days in the
middle of nowhere Pennsylvania
1064
00:50:16,280 --> 00:50:17,560
where you could put it in the
trunk.
1065
00:50:17,560 --> 00:50:20,200
Remember how people seats used
to go down in the back of the
1066
00:50:20,200 --> 00:50:22,760
trunk?
So you pop it, you pop it, you
1067
00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:25,240
put it in the trunk with some
ice, you pump and get some beer,
1068
00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:28,080
take the beer and then you put
it back and in the cops come.
1069
00:50:28,080 --> 00:50:30,360
He just sort of like one of the
things everywhere in the truck
1070
00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:33,760
because you couldn't get to it.
But they were, they held like 30
1071
00:50:33,760 --> 00:50:36,800
or 40 some beers.
So they were called party balls
1072
00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:39,320
and they look like a gigantic
Christmas tree or like Christmas
1073
00:50:39,320 --> 00:50:40,480
tree ball.
Wow.
1074
00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:43,680
We definitely didn't have that.
Yeah, yeah.
1075
00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:47,520
See guys, what are you missing
out of you not being in the, you
1076
00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:49,560
know, the coal mining towns in
Pennsylvania?
1077
00:50:49,840 --> 00:50:52,200
No, no, Van certain.
People.
1078
00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:55,160
No van party really.
If people really want to get
1079
00:50:55,160 --> 00:50:57,960
messed up, they would cross the
border to Mexico, which is like
1080
00:50:57,960 --> 00:51:01,640
15 minutes away, where drinking
was legal at a younger age.
1081
00:51:02,760 --> 00:51:04,360
Yeah.
We we did the same thing with
1082
00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:06,320
Canada.
Granted it was a six hour drive,
1083
00:51:06,320 --> 00:51:09,040
but.
So it was a question for those
1084
00:51:09,040 --> 00:51:13,160
of you who are, well, you're,
you're barely older than me,
1085
00:51:14,720 --> 00:51:18,440
like, and I see this and I know
the reason because I did go to
1086
00:51:18,440 --> 00:51:19,840
Business School.
They can't pay.
1087
00:51:19,920 --> 00:51:22,640
They've got to have
advertisements to do this kind
1088
00:51:22,640 --> 00:51:25,680
of things.
But like, you know, I watched
1089
00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:28,840
Cheers and I still, I watch it
all the time.
1090
00:51:28,880 --> 00:51:30,240
It's one of my favorite shows
ever.
1091
00:51:30,560 --> 00:51:34,160
And then I watched this movie
and he's like in Cheers, they're
1092
00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:36,880
like, give me a beer.
And this movie, it's like, give
1093
00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:40,080
me a keg of beer.
It's like, are there actual or
1094
00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:45,080
were there actual bars and
liquor stores that just sold one
1095
00:51:45,080 --> 00:51:48,120
kind of beer?
So you could just say give me a
1096
00:51:48,120 --> 00:51:49,480
beer and those.
So that's.
1097
00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:50,080
A good.
Question.
1098
00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:54,200
I will kind of answer this for
you like at least from where I
1099
00:51:54,200 --> 00:51:59,080
grew up, if you went into a like
I grew up in Pennsylvania,
1100
00:51:59,120 --> 00:52:01,840
northeast part of Pennsylvania,
If you ever seen the office, I
1101
00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:04,760
grew up in Scranton area, right.
So that's how you have an idea.
1102
00:52:04,760 --> 00:52:07,640
There is no beet farms, but
everything else is pretty on
1103
00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:09,200
there.
If you go and say give me a
1104
00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:11,400
beer, they would give you a
Yingling and they would
1105
00:52:11,400 --> 00:52:14,080
literally say you give me a
beer, they would give you the
1106
00:52:14,120 --> 00:52:16,280
ingling unless you just said,
hey, I want a light beer.
1107
00:52:16,440 --> 00:52:18,600
And then normally it's whatever
generic light beer that they
1108
00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:21,280
had, they had on top.
But if you said a beer, you did
1109
00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:22,800
get a ingling.
That's what that's what this.
1110
00:52:23,080 --> 00:52:26,400
All right.
And again, this, this took place
1111
00:52:26,400 --> 00:52:27,960
in California, right?
So I don't.
1112
00:52:28,440 --> 00:52:31,040
No, it was actually set.
It was set somewhere else, but
1113
00:52:31,040 --> 00:52:33,160
it was filmed in California.
OK, it's.
1114
00:52:33,240 --> 00:52:37,160
Supposed to be set.
I was going to say because there
1115
00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:41,320
was a Nebraska football calendar
on the the fridge door, but I
1116
00:52:41,680 --> 00:52:45,040
but I saw in on the coach's
calendar.
1117
00:52:45,040 --> 00:52:49,280
I thought it said Santa Anita.
It probably didn't, I thought.
1118
00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:52,520
Somebody said something about
California on there like
1119
00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:54,320
something, but it's California
mayor something.
1120
00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:56,200
I I thought I heard that line at
some.
1121
00:52:56,200 --> 00:52:57,560
Point.
I don't remember.
1122
00:52:58,000 --> 00:52:58,840
Yeah.
But I saw you.
1123
00:52:58,880 --> 00:53:00,680
Think I would.
I've seen this on the calendar.
1124
00:53:02,040 --> 00:53:04,720
I mean, I've been in Nebraska.
That doesn't look like Nebraska.
1125
00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:06,880
No, definitely film in.
California.
1126
00:53:07,600 --> 00:53:09,880
Let's talk about some scenes in
trivia talking about where it
1127
00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:11,560
was filmed.
So the house where Scott and
1128
00:53:11,560 --> 00:53:15,000
Booth stop outside to talk about
going to the dance is the same
1129
00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:18,440
house that George George McFly
lives in and Back to the Future.
1130
00:53:18,440 --> 00:53:21,480
So they were filmed pretty much
on the same St.
1131
00:53:21,520 --> 00:53:24,760
The dancing was choreographed by
Janet Roston, who are that is
1132
00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:27,640
who later directed the Los
Angeles Rock Opera Company.
1133
00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:32,040
Michael J Fox had a dance double
for some of his scenes because
1134
00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:35,440
the director said Michael J Fox,
as well as being a terrible
1135
00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:37,600
basketball player, was also a
terrible dancer.
1136
00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:41,720
So they had that going for him.
So talk about the the last game.
1137
00:53:41,720 --> 00:53:44,560
Originally in the script, Scott
was going to start the final
1138
00:53:44,560 --> 00:53:48,120
basketball game as the werewolf,
but the director decided to have
1139
00:53:48,120 --> 00:53:50,480
Scott play the whole game as
himself, which I think worked.
1140
00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:51,960
Worked better.
Think it worked better.
1141
00:53:51,960 --> 00:53:55,080
So we talked about, I want to
catch these other behind the
1142
00:53:55,080 --> 00:53:56,520
scenes stuff you could read in
the show notes.
1143
00:53:56,680 --> 00:53:59,320
We won't be able to get to it,
but about alternate scenes or
1144
00:53:59,320 --> 00:54:02,520
alternate, you know how it got
edited down, Whatever there were
1145
00:54:02,520 --> 00:54:04,640
in the script.
There was supposed to be a scene
1146
00:54:04,640 --> 00:54:07,400
of Scott appearing on The
Tonight Show, but it was the
1147
00:54:07,400 --> 00:54:09,120
only scene that they didn't
shoot.
1148
00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:11,920
So I guess they figured like
budget wise they couldn't make
1149
00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:13,880
it happen.
And also in the direction they
1150
00:54:13,880 --> 00:54:17,720
want to keep everything kind of
in one town instead of really
1151
00:54:17,720 --> 00:54:21,080
having him travel.
But I did mention earlier about
1152
00:54:21,120 --> 00:54:25,840
the alternate TV version.
So in the TV edit that I
1153
00:54:25,840 --> 00:54:30,640
probably recorded off, you know,
the TV version, there were two
1154
00:54:30,640 --> 00:54:33,480
scenes that were deleted and
that Styles looking for the
1155
00:54:33,480 --> 00:54:37,160
marijuana in his garage and
where Scott confides in him,
1156
00:54:37,640 --> 00:54:41,120
which doesn't make sense.
How then you never there's he's
1157
00:54:41,120 --> 00:54:43,320
never revealed, but then all of
a sudden Styles knows.
1158
00:54:43,320 --> 00:54:45,600
So anyway.
And then the last part of the
1159
00:54:45,600 --> 00:54:49,280
scene of Pam tempting Scott to
become the wolf by getting him
1160
00:54:49,280 --> 00:54:52,200
worked up.
So the the you know that scene,
1161
00:54:52,880 --> 00:54:55,040
but there were a few scenes are
added.
1162
00:54:55,080 --> 00:54:57,560
And this is the scene that I
remembered Styles trying to get
1163
00:54:57,560 --> 00:55:00,040
a keg of beer from another
liquor store.
1164
00:55:00,280 --> 00:55:03,120
He explains to Lewis that he saw
it in the movie once after he
1165
00:55:03,120 --> 00:55:05,280
comes out of the movie store
minus a keg.
1166
00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:07,800
He gets in the car and he says
it didn't work in the movie
1167
00:55:07,800 --> 00:55:09,960
either.
I remember that from TV.
1168
00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:13,680
Remember that.
Yeah, and then the other scene
1169
00:55:13,680 --> 00:55:17,880
was when Scott says goodbyes to
Booth after walking her home, he
1170
00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:20,760
is all of a sudden being chased
by a pack of dogs and he's saved
1171
00:55:20,760 --> 00:55:23,960
by the family dog, Daisy, which
I don't remember there being a
1172
00:55:23,960 --> 00:55:27,600
family dog in the movie at all,
but I do kind of remember him
1173
00:55:27,600 --> 00:55:29,280
being chased by dogs at some
point.
1174
00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:31,840
So Daisy, I was watching it
today.
1175
00:55:31,840 --> 00:55:35,440
Daisy was actually in this movie
was sitting Booth.
1176
00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:38,080
I'm a dog person.
Jerrys laughing because he
1177
00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:40,520
probably knew that made my day.
Yeah.
1178
00:55:41,840 --> 00:55:44,640
But was sitting on the front
porch and he's like something
1179
00:55:44,640 --> 00:55:45,920
because he's like, oh, hey,
Daisy.
1180
00:55:46,160 --> 00:55:48,360
And then he turns and boop
sitting on the front porch and
1181
00:55:48,360 --> 00:55:50,920
she's like, right.
He's like, what's going on?
1182
00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:53,080
She's like, why does there have
to be something going on?
1183
00:55:53,080 --> 00:55:54,320
I just want to walk to school
with you.
1184
00:55:54,920 --> 00:55:55,880
Yeah.
Because the first thing you said
1185
00:55:55,880 --> 00:55:57,440
was, hey, Daisy.
And the dog was just sitting
1186
00:55:57,440 --> 00:55:59,360
there, like, right, Right.
Look at the stuffed dogs that
1187
00:55:59,360 --> 00:56:00,240
didn't move.
Yeah.
1188
00:56:00,320 --> 00:56:03,200
And I was like, yeah, it was
random to me because I was like,
1189
00:56:03,200 --> 00:56:05,400
they didn't talk about the dog
the whole entire time.
1190
00:56:05,800 --> 00:56:07,640
And then it's just sitting in
the front yard.
1191
00:56:07,760 --> 00:56:10,960
It would probably make sense if
you saw the other scene where it
1192
00:56:11,040 --> 00:56:12,680
where it's going.
Exactly.
1193
00:56:13,440 --> 00:56:16,200
And the last scene that was that
was added for the T version is
1194
00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:19,080
Scott is sitting on the porch
with Daisy once again with a dog
1195
00:56:19,400 --> 00:56:20,880
after coming home from the
dance.
1196
00:56:20,880 --> 00:56:23,440
He tells his father that he's
decided to not become the wolf
1197
00:56:23,440 --> 00:56:25,800
anymore.
His father tells him he will use
1198
00:56:25,800 --> 00:56:29,160
it when the time is right.
So that I think that makes sense
1199
00:56:29,160 --> 00:56:33,120
because he has the scene at the
party, whatever, but he doesn't
1200
00:56:33,120 --> 00:56:36,160
actually say he's not going to
be the wolf anymore until he
1201
00:56:36,160 --> 00:56:38,200
gets to the game.
And it's like, you don't really
1202
00:56:38,200 --> 00:56:40,560
know how he came to that
decision.
1203
00:56:41,440 --> 00:56:42,880
So.
So I do think that I think that
1204
00:56:42,880 --> 00:56:45,160
was a good scene that probably
could have been kept in the
1205
00:56:45,160 --> 00:56:47,240
movie.
But I can see why they put those
1206
00:56:47,240 --> 00:56:51,520
in the TV versions, yeah.
So you keep saying edit and I
1207
00:56:51,520 --> 00:56:53,080
this, this bothered me in the
movie.
1208
00:56:53,160 --> 00:56:55,000
And I don't know if any of you
guys ever caught it, but there
1209
00:56:55,000 --> 00:57:00,080
was a part on the basketball
scene where that no one's
1210
00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:03,680
everyone stood still and you
could tell they said go and they
1211
00:57:03,680 --> 00:57:06,400
never and they never cut it.
It's kind of like they're all
1212
00:57:06,400 --> 00:57:09,200
standing there like chubs and
everyone is standing and they're
1213
00:57:09,200 --> 00:57:12,280
all doing and all of a sudden
they start moving like I was
1214
00:57:12,280 --> 00:57:14,040
like, how do you not have this
editing?
1215
00:57:14,480 --> 00:57:16,280
Because I, I catch it every
time.
1216
00:57:16,280 --> 00:57:18,800
It's kind of like the
stormtrooper in the first Star
1217
00:57:18,800 --> 00:57:20,520
Wars movie where he hits his
head off the door.
1218
00:57:20,880 --> 00:57:24,360
I catch it every time.
I'm like, how did they not after
1219
00:57:24,360 --> 00:57:28,480
all this time, not stop that?
But it was you could tell that
1220
00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:30,640
they they were waiting to say
someone to say action and they
1221
00:57:30,640 --> 00:57:32,400
finally say it and everyone
starts running.
1222
00:57:32,720 --> 00:57:35,720
They they never still to this
day have not taken it out
1223
00:57:35,720 --> 00:57:37,840
because I would look for it and
I was like, there it is.
1224
00:57:39,040 --> 00:57:42,160
Yeah, gotta love it.
I mean, this was still like kind
1225
00:57:42,160 --> 00:57:45,880
of, I mean, VHS was just
becoming as big.
1226
00:57:45,880 --> 00:57:48,920
I mean, it wasn't quite at its
peak yet, but it was kind of
1227
00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:50,600
coming.
So repeat viewings.
1228
00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:51,880
They weren't thinking about
that.
1229
00:57:51,880 --> 00:57:53,400
They were like, they're going to
see in the movie, it's going to
1230
00:57:53,400 --> 00:57:56,080
be forgotten about, you know,
but little they know that we'd
1231
00:57:56,080 --> 00:57:59,760
be talking about it here, you
know, 40 years later, but, you
1232
00:57:59,760 --> 00:58:00,760
know, just like.
VHS.
1233
00:58:01,080 --> 00:58:03,200
Yeah, go ahead.
Sorry, I was so Speaking of VHS,
1234
00:58:03,200 --> 00:58:06,520
I like how Tim keeps saying so
nonchalantly about how he used
1235
00:58:06,520 --> 00:58:08,840
to record the TV version of this
movie that's have a.
1236
00:58:10,920 --> 00:58:13,480
Mercy, man.
Children listening and watching
1237
00:58:13,480 --> 00:58:14,440
this at home.
In Gen.
1238
00:58:14,440 --> 00:58:17,160
Z, we actually used to record
movies.
1239
00:58:17,360 --> 00:58:19,440
Oh, yeah.
And it didn't stay on a central
1240
00:58:19,440 --> 00:58:21,280
box that you had to pay rent.
Yeah.
1241
00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:24,040
No, it was ours at that point.
Yeah, I'm.
1242
00:58:24,080 --> 00:58:25,720
Going to go one further for you
guys.
1243
00:58:25,720 --> 00:58:30,320
JB, did you even know what a
Betamax is or I did the VHS.
1244
00:58:30,400 --> 00:58:34,800
We had beta also we have we have
a ton of videos from MTV
1245
00:58:34,800 --> 00:58:36,920
recorded on a Betamax tape.
Oh yeah.
1246
00:58:37,240 --> 00:58:38,880
Oh yeah.
It finally stopped working like
1247
00:58:38,880 --> 00:58:41,240
five years ago.
I did.
1248
00:58:41,240 --> 00:58:44,240
I had one friend that had a Beta
machine that we need to watch a
1249
00:58:44,240 --> 00:58:48,000
couple of things on the Betamax,
but I mainly knew about VHS and
1250
00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:51,600
I had one friend that had the
video disc player.
1251
00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:56,000
They look like big albums.
Yeah, yeah, but his dad, but his
1252
00:58:56,000 --> 00:58:58,760
dad like he's like we snuck in
the room like one day just to
1253
00:58:58,760 --> 00:59:01,400
look at him.
His dad forbid forbid the kids
1254
00:59:01,400 --> 00:59:04,520
to go in there to play to like
watch anything on it or like
1255
00:59:04,520 --> 00:59:06,480
mess with anything.
But but then I but I would see
1256
00:59:06,480 --> 00:59:08,000
them in the stores and like this
is got.
1257
00:59:08,160 --> 00:59:10,080
I thought they were like
soundtrack albums and I'm like,
1258
00:59:10,080 --> 00:59:13,040
why is this like 40 bucks?
And it was because they're.
1259
00:59:13,440 --> 00:59:14,520
Pricey.
Yeah, they were.
1260
00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:17,040
They were like 50-60 bucks.
Yeah, yeah, they were.
1261
00:59:17,160 --> 00:59:22,960
They're expensive, but yeah, so,
so we'll talk about it.
1262
00:59:22,960 --> 00:59:25,640
It's pretty it's it's been one
of those like, you know, urban
1263
00:59:25,640 --> 00:59:28,760
legends, I guess, talking about,
you know, bad editing.
1264
00:59:29,120 --> 00:59:31,360
The final shot, he wins the
game.
1265
00:59:31,800 --> 00:59:34,200
He goes in the stands and hugs
his father in the back.
1266
00:59:34,200 --> 00:59:37,760
You can see immediately behind
him an extra in a wet sweater.
1267
00:59:37,760 --> 00:59:41,160
Red sweater can be seen with an
unzipped fly.
1268
00:59:41,520 --> 00:59:44,000
This incident later resulted in
Internet rumored that the extras
1269
00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:47,360
a man exposing himself.
However, that's not true.
1270
00:59:47,520 --> 00:59:49,880
It was actually a young woman.
Apparently her pants were too
1271
00:59:49,880 --> 00:59:53,360
tight so she unbuttoned and
unzipped them so she could sit
1272
00:59:53,360 --> 00:59:56,200
down on the bleachers.
I think when filming commenced
1273
00:59:56,200 --> 00:59:59,000
she stood up later while the
scene was still being filmed and
1274
00:59:59,000 --> 01:00:01,760
she realized it and buttoned and
zipped her, zipped up her pants.
1275
01:00:02,040 --> 01:00:04,440
You know, you couldn't look it
up like Google anything.
1276
01:00:04,480 --> 01:00:04,840
Yeah.
Yeah.
1277
01:00:04,920 --> 01:00:07,480
So if someone started, I mean,
that's why we all thought, you
1278
01:00:07,480 --> 01:00:09,400
know, Marilyn Manson did what he
did, right?
1279
01:00:09,400 --> 01:00:10,400
I.
Know that's how we thought the
1280
01:00:10,480 --> 01:00:15,920
kid the kid the was it the kid
the Mikey from the no no Mikey
1281
01:00:15,920 --> 01:00:20,120
from the life commercial died
from eating coke and pop rocks,
1282
01:00:20,120 --> 01:00:20,880
right?
Did you guys right?
1283
01:00:20,920 --> 01:00:23,800
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I was actually couldn't verify
1284
01:00:23,800 --> 01:00:25,640
anything.
So it's like or there was a.
1285
01:00:25,680 --> 01:00:27,800
Ghost in a Three men and a baby.
Three men and a baby.
1286
01:00:27,800 --> 01:00:28,280
Yeah.
Yeah.
1287
01:00:29,880 --> 01:00:30,560
So.
Yeah.
1288
01:00:30,600 --> 01:00:33,080
But yeah, that's.
I actually, I did see that today
1289
01:00:33,120 --> 01:00:36,200
watching it because now that I
have a bigger TV, it's kind of
1290
01:00:36,200 --> 01:00:38,040
hard to miss.
And it's bad thing is because
1291
01:00:38,600 --> 01:00:41,520
you would have thought they
would have zoomed in like, 2
1292
01:00:41,520 --> 01:00:44,600
Michael J Fox and his dad, but
no, it's just a super wide shot.
1293
01:00:44,600 --> 01:00:48,120
And like, she's the only person
standing on the bleachers behind
1294
01:00:48,120 --> 01:00:49,440
them.
Like there's nobody else around
1295
01:00:49,440 --> 01:00:51,920
them.
And you just see like this, I'm
1296
01:00:52,080 --> 01:00:52,800
gonna.
Go watch it.
1297
01:00:52,800 --> 01:00:54,000
I'm gonna have to go watch it
now.
1298
01:00:54,080 --> 01:00:56,560
Yeah, but Oh yeah, so crazy,
crazy.
1299
01:00:56,560 --> 01:01:00,320
All right.
Box Office Atlantic Releasing
1300
01:01:00,320 --> 01:01:03,600
spent $4 million on advertising
for Teen Wolf, released in the
1301
01:01:03,680 --> 01:01:07,920
US on August 23rd, 1985.
It debuted at #2 and it's
1302
01:01:07,920 --> 01:01:11,320
opening weekend behind Back to
the Future, also starring
1303
01:01:11,320 --> 01:01:14,800
Michael J Fox.
After its initial run, the film
1304
01:01:14,800 --> 01:01:18,680
grossed over $33 million
domestically, with a worldwide
1305
01:01:18,680 --> 01:01:22,920
gross of about $80 million.
So yes, it was filmed actually
1306
01:01:22,920 --> 01:01:27,640
before Back to the Future, but
they held it because they knew
1307
01:01:27,640 --> 01:01:29,880
Back to the Future was going to
be such a huge hit.
1308
01:01:30,280 --> 01:01:33,520
And so they waited until after
it was Back to the Future was
1309
01:01:33,520 --> 01:01:36,480
released to then release Teen
Wolf and actually put on the
1310
01:01:36,480 --> 01:01:38,280
poster.
The tag on to the poster was
1311
01:01:38,880 --> 01:01:44,640
Michael J Fox is Back from the
Future, so it's why it did what
1312
01:01:44,640 --> 01:01:46,480
it did.
So that's smart, yeah.
1313
01:01:47,240 --> 01:01:49,320
All right, now it's time to take
a look at how well this 80s
1314
01:01:49,320 --> 01:01:52,320
flick holds up today.
It's our rewatch ability
1315
01:01:52,320 --> 01:01:54,320
Nostalgia Meter.
It's our way of measuring how
1316
01:01:54,320 --> 01:01:57,560
enjoyable a movie is for repeat
viewings along with the waves
1317
01:01:57,560 --> 01:01:59,360
nostalgia brings.
Here's how it works.
1318
01:01:59,600 --> 01:02:02,280
It's a one to 10 scale.
Any number between 1:00 and
1319
01:02:02,280 --> 01:02:04,360
10:00 will do.
Here a few parameters to help
1320
01:02:04,360 --> 01:02:06,080
you decide.
At the bottom of the meter is
1321
01:02:06,080 --> 01:02:08,800
A1.
It basically means I saw it once
1322
01:02:08,800 --> 01:02:11,640
and that was enough.
Right in the middle at a number
1323
01:02:11,640 --> 01:02:15,840
5 is a good rewatch every couple
of years or so, and the highly
1324
01:02:15,840 --> 01:02:20,200
coveted #10 on the meter is
highly rewatchable and full of
1325
01:02:20,200 --> 01:02:22,880
nostalgia.
So I know this is the first time
1326
01:02:22,880 --> 01:02:26,080
Vinnie has made a rating, so
I'll wait and let him go last.
1327
01:02:26,680 --> 01:02:29,720
So we'll start with Jerry.
Jerry, where does Teen Wolf land
1328
01:02:29,720 --> 01:02:32,720
for you on the rewatch ability
and nostalgia meter?
1329
01:02:32,960 --> 01:02:36,040
So this one's, I can't decide
between 8 1/2 or 9.
1330
01:02:36,080 --> 01:02:37,920
It's one, it's it's around there
for me.
1331
01:02:38,360 --> 01:02:41,040
I love this one.
It's again, it's just it's pure
1332
01:02:41,040 --> 01:02:42,360
nostalgia.
Yeah.
1333
01:02:42,520 --> 01:02:44,360
Oh, yeah.
And it's just fun.
1334
01:02:44,360 --> 01:02:45,960
And you don't have to like,
think too hard.
1335
01:02:45,960 --> 01:02:49,080
You can just watch and enjoy.
And it's got some killer tune.
1336
01:02:49,080 --> 01:02:50,880
So it's.
Oh, yeah, I'll say 9.
1337
01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:52,520
I'll say 9.
All right, Yeah.
1338
01:02:53,000 --> 01:02:54,400
Not mad at that.
What about you, JB?
1339
01:02:54,760 --> 01:02:57,720
Yeah, you know, you can watch it
and you can nitpick it as an
1340
01:02:57,720 --> 01:03:02,000
adult and whatever.
But what it all boils down to is
1341
01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:04,680
I love Michael J Fox.
I grew up watching Michael J
1342
01:03:04,720 --> 01:03:06,520
Fox.
If I'm going to watch a Michael
1343
01:03:06,520 --> 01:03:10,600
J Fox movie #1 is going to be
Back to the Future, all of them
1344
01:03:10,600 --> 01:03:13,480
in a row.
But then after that, it's.
1345
01:03:13,560 --> 01:03:15,040
It's Teen Wolf.
Yeah.
1346
01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:17,960
Like, that's, that's that's my
second problem, I guess.
1347
01:03:17,960 --> 01:03:21,480
Technically my fourth favorite
Michael J Fox movie.
1348
01:03:21,680 --> 01:03:24,080
Right, Right.
Or I could just do like all the
1349
01:03:24,080 --> 01:03:26,240
Lord of the Rings fans and to
call them all one movie.
1350
01:03:26,240 --> 01:03:30,000
Anyway, I'll digress on that.
But no, it's if I'm going to
1351
01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:32,840
watch a Michael J Fox movie,
this is probably going to be my,
1352
01:03:32,840 --> 01:03:36,000
my second choice.
I'm, I'm going to say I'm going
1353
01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:38,920
to, I'm going to go with an 8 or
maybe 8 1/2.
1354
01:03:39,400 --> 01:03:42,240
OK, OK.
All right, Vinny, up to you.
1355
01:03:42,240 --> 01:03:43,800
What do you where?
Where does it land for you?
1356
01:03:43,800 --> 01:03:48,240
Rewatch ability and nostalgia.
So I agree with a lot of stuff
1357
01:03:48,240 --> 01:03:52,760
that JB said there a lot of my
rewatch ability part of the
1358
01:03:52,760 --> 01:03:57,280
movies with the great one liners
movie had so many great one
1359
01:03:57,280 --> 01:04:00,360
liners.
You watch it again, right?
1360
01:04:00,560 --> 01:04:03,360
Yeah, I would.
I would kind of have to agree.
1361
01:04:03,360 --> 01:04:06,600
I don't know what this would be.
I'm not a huge Michael J Fox
1362
01:04:06,600 --> 01:04:08,640
fan.
I do like Back to the future and
1363
01:04:08,640 --> 01:04:10,200
I I do like some of his other
movies.
1364
01:04:10,200 --> 01:04:11,760
Don't get me wrong.
I would think this one would
1365
01:04:11,760 --> 01:04:16,080
have to be this is higher, if
not higher than Back to the
1366
01:04:16,080 --> 01:04:18,400
future, because I think Back to
the future doesn't have some
1367
01:04:18,400 --> 01:04:22,400
rewatchable moments.
So probably like an 8.5 for me.
1368
01:04:22,680 --> 01:04:24,320
I don't know if it's Bill and
Ted's.
1369
01:04:24,320 --> 01:04:27,240
That's for me.
I that's my ultimate 80s
1370
01:04:27,240 --> 01:04:30,840
rewatchable one.
But this one is not too far
1371
01:04:30,840 --> 01:04:33,640
below it.
It's the Kega beer.
1372
01:04:33,640 --> 01:04:35,880
You know, all these are the the
basketball scenes.
1373
01:04:35,880 --> 01:04:40,360
It is so rewatchable for me.
And again, I don't think my wife
1374
01:04:40,360 --> 01:04:42,360
has ever seen it.
Is she probably going to see it?
1375
01:04:42,680 --> 01:04:46,040
No, but I would probably say you
would like this one.
1376
01:04:46,040 --> 01:04:48,040
If I was going to say, hey, it's
goofy comedy.
1377
01:04:48,040 --> 01:04:49,400
You could probably you probably
watch it.
1378
01:04:49,880 --> 01:04:52,600
Yeah, yeah, I'm, I'm, I'm right
there with you guys.
1379
01:04:52,600 --> 01:04:55,560
Like it's high on nostalgia for
me because like what we said
1380
01:04:55,560 --> 01:04:58,520
before, it's one that I watched
so many times as a kid.
1381
01:04:58,520 --> 01:05:02,520
It brings back great memories of
watching this and watching it
1382
01:05:02,520 --> 01:05:05,360
over and over again.
I don't really watch it as much
1383
01:05:05,360 --> 01:05:07,920
as I would I rewatch other ones.
That kind of brings it down a
1384
01:05:07,920 --> 01:05:10,280
little bit for me.
But yeah, I'm I'm kind of, I
1385
01:05:10,280 --> 01:05:13,680
can't quite give it a nine where
Jerry Lanza, but I'm I'm right
1386
01:05:13,680 --> 01:05:18,600
there. 888.5 is kind of where I
land from as a movie as a whole
1387
01:05:18,800 --> 01:05:21,240
because there are some issues.
It's probably more of a 7, but
1388
01:05:21,520 --> 01:05:26,440
on the rewatch ability nostalgia
meter it's a solid 8.5 for sure.
1389
01:05:26,760 --> 01:05:29,080
You want you want 7 on the
actual movie.
1390
01:05:29,160 --> 01:05:32,560
I look I love it but I would be
like 5 issues.
1391
01:05:35,280 --> 01:05:37,200
You've heard our take.
Now let us know where you think
1392
01:05:37,200 --> 01:05:40,000
Teen Wolf should rank on the
rewatch ability and nostalgia
1393
01:05:40,000 --> 01:05:41,880
meter.
Please send us an e-mail or tell
1394
01:05:41,880 --> 01:05:44,000
us on social media.
You can also leave a comment
1395
01:05:44,280 --> 01:05:47,200
right here on YouTube if you're
watching the video with us.
1396
01:05:47,200 --> 01:05:51,200
So I want to thank Jerry, DJB,
and Vinny for joining the
1397
01:05:51,200 --> 01:05:53,040
podcast.
We had a great time talking
1398
01:05:53,040 --> 01:05:54,280
about this movie.
It's a fun movie.
1399
01:05:54,400 --> 01:05:56,760
It's doing episodes like this
where we I've watched it, we've
1400
01:05:56,760 --> 01:05:58,600
talked about it.
Now ready to go watch it again
1401
01:05:59,720 --> 01:06:01,560
very quickly.
Jerry, what's going on with
1402
01:06:01,560 --> 01:06:03,520
Totally Rad Christmas, which you
got coming up?
1403
01:06:03,520 --> 01:06:04,920
I know you, it's your spooky
season.
1404
01:06:04,920 --> 01:06:07,320
So what are you covering on the
podcast for the month of
1405
01:06:07,320 --> 01:06:09,880
October?
Yeah, so in October I always
1406
01:06:09,880 --> 01:06:12,880
release a Christmas episode and
a Halloween episode each year,
1407
01:06:12,880 --> 01:06:16,400
or excuse me, each week.
And so Halloween we got
1408
01:06:16,560 --> 01:06:19,880
Superboy, the Laser Tag Academy.
I don't know if you remember
1409
01:06:19,880 --> 01:06:24,480
that cartoon DuckTales and that
that movie trick or treat.
1410
01:06:24,520 --> 01:06:26,400
Can't not do it.
Oh, of course, for sure.
1411
01:06:26,520 --> 01:06:28,360
That movie trick or treat.
I don't know if you remember
1412
01:06:28,360 --> 01:06:31,600
that one with Sammy Kerr.
Yeah, that's a good one.
1413
01:06:31,600 --> 01:06:33,440
And then the Garfield's
Halloween adventure.
1414
01:06:33,440 --> 01:06:36,520
And then on the Christmas side,
remote control Vinny, which you
1415
01:06:36,520 --> 01:06:39,000
were on a very special Christmas
party.
1416
01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:44,640
And then 220 Volts, their song
Heavy Christmas and blood beat,
1417
01:06:44,880 --> 01:06:49,720
which is one of the worst movies
I've ever seen, like a psychic
1418
01:06:49,920 --> 01:06:54,560
samurai warrior ghost that
attacks people at Christmas time
1419
01:06:54,560 --> 01:06:57,200
in like rural Montana or
something.
1420
01:06:57,200 --> 01:06:58,400
It's.
Awesome.
1421
01:06:59,440 --> 01:07:03,880
Sounds awesome, but I that like
that premise is a great elevator
1422
01:07:03,880 --> 01:07:07,080
pitch, but then you watch and
you're like wow, this is this is
1423
01:07:07,080 --> 01:07:08,120
weird.
But if you watch it with
1424
01:07:08,120 --> 01:07:10,880
subtitles, it gives one of the
greatest subtitles I've ever
1425
01:07:10,880 --> 01:07:14,160
seen, which is as the soundtrack
is going on.
1426
01:07:14,160 --> 01:07:18,240
It says mystical boy names.
Yeah.
1427
01:07:18,560 --> 01:07:19,800
So anyway, that's what's going
on.
1428
01:07:19,800 --> 01:07:22,920
Totallyradchristmas.com or
linktree.com/totally Rad
1429
01:07:22,920 --> 01:07:24,600
Christmas.
What's the name of that movie
1430
01:07:24,600 --> 01:07:26,160
again?
Blood beat.
1431
01:07:26,600 --> 01:07:31,280
Now playing on Tubi probably.
Yeah.
1432
01:07:32,120 --> 01:07:34,440
Or Plex, Yeah, yeah.
All right.
1433
01:07:34,440 --> 01:07:37,280
And then JB, I know band the
movies are still on Highness,
1434
01:07:37,280 --> 01:07:42,560
but what you got coming up on
SEC Tavern talk, Tavern talk and
1435
01:07:42,560 --> 01:07:44,040
he was starting with ATI just
couldn't get it out.
1436
01:07:44,080 --> 01:07:46,120
SEC Tavern talk.
I can't talk today.
1437
01:07:46,480 --> 01:07:51,960
SEC Tavern talk gum well.
First of all, Bloodbeat actually
1438
01:07:51,960 --> 01:07:54,640
is on Tubi and Plex and Roku
and.
1439
01:07:54,680 --> 01:07:56,040
Roku.
So there you go.
1440
01:07:56,480 --> 01:08:00,120
It's also on like YouTube.
Yeah, OK.
1441
01:08:00,320 --> 01:08:01,960
With commercials.
Yeah.
1442
01:08:01,960 --> 01:08:05,400
But anyway, so yeah, as far as
mainly movies I like, I'm
1443
01:08:05,400 --> 01:08:08,120
starting to come to terms with
the fact that I don't know if
1444
01:08:08,120 --> 01:08:11,000
I'm going to start manly movies
back up until my kids are not
1445
01:08:11,000 --> 01:08:14,520
playing youth sports anymore
because I'm so freaking busy,
1446
01:08:14,960 --> 01:08:17,479
right.
But as far as the the college
1447
01:08:17,479 --> 01:08:22,640
football podcast, I do the the
SEC, the Tavern talk, it hadn't
1448
01:08:22,640 --> 01:08:24,520
been on the last couple of
weeks, but I'm probably going to
1449
01:08:24,520 --> 01:08:27,960
be on this week because Arkansas
football coach just got fired.
1450
01:08:27,960 --> 01:08:30,520
And so I'm probably going to get
on there and talk and give my
1451
01:08:30,520 --> 01:08:31,800
$0.02.
On that SO.
1452
01:08:31,800 --> 01:08:36,000
If you, if you ever needed one,
I'm, I'm a big 10 guy, but I
1453
01:08:36,000 --> 01:08:38,720
have no life.
I have 4 TV set up in my living
1454
01:08:38,720 --> 01:08:43,040
room to watch games.
But yeah, it's, it's that time
1455
01:08:43,040 --> 01:08:44,240
of year.
I don't leave.
1456
01:08:44,479 --> 01:08:48,120
So Saturday is like, unless
someone's dying, don't text me.
1457
01:08:48,720 --> 01:08:53,020
We'll check out SEC Tavern talk
with JB and soon to be guest Co
1458
01:08:53,020 --> 01:08:56,439
host Vinny.
The bald headed Big 10 guy,
1459
01:08:56,520 --> 01:08:58,760
Yeah.
That's the first Big 10 guy to
1460
01:08:58,760 --> 01:09:00,479
be on there.
We had an Ohio State fan on
1461
01:09:00,479 --> 01:09:02,120
there one time.
That's a terrible idea.
1462
01:09:02,160 --> 01:09:04,000
I will Vinny for thanks for
being on this episode.
1463
01:09:04,000 --> 01:09:06,600
Now you don't have a podcast to
promote, but always glad to have
1464
01:09:06,600 --> 01:09:08,720
you on the show.
We'll have you back again.
1465
01:09:08,720 --> 01:09:11,880
We say all these times, I always
want to do a podcast.
1466
01:09:11,880 --> 01:09:13,800
Jerry's been trying to talk me
into one for years.
1467
01:09:13,800 --> 01:09:16,200
I am just so lazy, guys.
I'm not going to lie to you.
1468
01:09:16,359 --> 01:09:19,600
I get up early for work.
I was watch some things on
1469
01:09:19,600 --> 01:09:22,640
football and then I go to bed.
I'm normally this is 2 hours
1470
01:09:22,640 --> 01:09:26,000
past my bedtime at least.
Yeah, my dogs are probably
1471
01:09:26,000 --> 01:09:27,840
waiting for me to like what's
going on.
1472
01:09:27,960 --> 01:09:29,680
Well, thanks for staying up late
with us tonight.
1473
01:09:29,680 --> 01:09:31,800

Look at the sneakers those guys
are wearing.
1485
01:10:01,280 --> 01:10:03,400
If our guys had sneakers like
that, you can tell them what
1486
01:10:03,400 --> 01:10:03,840
they could do.
