AdamOkay, Adam, uh before we get started on the show uh this evening,

Adamthe uh the Transatlantic holiday, welcome to everyone. Welcome to everyone. Welcome to everyone.

AdamUh, well, let's just introduce everyone. First we got Chris over in the UK as well.

ChrisHello.

AdamWe got uh Adam, not our Adam. We'll get into that in a second.

Guest AdamHow do?

AdamAs a reminder, our Adam will be known as Crude Rude Dude when referring to him.

LeeCrude dude in the house. How crude and how rude is the dude?

AdamWe shall see.

LeePretty crude.

AdamDepends how much bourbon is drunk.

AdamAnd then we have Lee.

LeeHello.

AdamUh now Crude Rude Dude, what I'd like to do, you sound like the worm from the Labyrinth fairly.

LeeIt was cute. It was very proper. Very proper.

AdamUh, Crude Rude Dude, I'd like to go over the ground rules with you when it comes to um recording remotely. Do you remember what those are?

AdamYeah, I'm not supposed to go outside to smoke, which I'm doing right now. I'm not supposed to spit while I'm fucking microphone. What else we got? What other goddamn rules you got?

AdamMute it. Mute it. I immediately regret bringing up the rules because uh you're a natural-born contrarian, and I'm watching you on screen right now walk outside so you weren't lying about that.

AdamUh, just do me a favor, uh Crude Rude Dude, just just try to remain relatively the same distance from the microphone. Is that a good compromise?

AdamYeah, I can do that.

AdamI can do that.

AdamAnd I think we got to keep it PG-13. However, uh because we are speaking with people in the UK, it is okay to say cunt.

AdamYeah.

LeeAbsolutely.

AdamThat's that's that's. I got full endorsement by everyone.

AdamOh yeah, for sure.

LeeIs it a placeholder? It's like you guys use um.

AdamI was told this cunt and then this other cunt come up to me and I said, fuck off you cunt.

AdamDrill me.

AdamGood news is your dates are here.

LeeWhat's the bad news?

AdamThey're dead.

AdamAll right, here we are once again. You may have remembered a couple months ago for Halloween season, we did a mashup episode with our friends from Welcome to Horror. This is uh holiday special number two. Uh welcome to everyone. Welcome everyone is what I like to say in these situations.

AdamUm, we've done introductions, we've got that out of the way. Uh, what I do want to do is obligatory what's everyone drinking tonight? Uh, let's start with Chris.

ChrisWell, I'm on the Adnam's mulled wine to get in the Christmas spirit. Heated in the microwave.

AdamOh.

AdamNow, what is a mulled wine?

ChrisMulled wine, it's uh what's it got in it?

AdamI know I've had it.

ChrisRed wine and then it's got cinnamon.

LeeRed wine, nutmeg, lemonade, and then spices.

AdamAre you making shit up Adam, or is that for real? Because that sounds good.

AdamThat's Lee.

AdamOh, that was Lee. I can't see anything.

AdamYou all sound the same to me.

AdamIt's fine.

AdamIs that for real? Is that a real thing?

AdamYeah, you've never had mulled wine?

AdamMulled?

AdamYou can go buy it. Mulled wine.

ChrisM U L L E D. Mulled.

AdamOh, yeah, you got to spell this shit for me, all right?

AdamMulled wine.

AdamI feel like I'm watching the an episode of The Office right now.

AdamI really like this dude.

AdamI know it's funny, but I just got to let it register.

ChrisThis This is a delicately sweet and vibrantly aromatic with all the traditional heart-warming scents of spices and citrus. We've used orange peel, cinnamon, cloves, and vanilla to give warmth and depth to juicy red wine.

AdamNow, Crude Rude Dude, can you read the ingredients on whatever it is you're drinking right now?

AdamYeah, it's got a danger government warning. It don't say it don't say shit.

AdamIt says it's extra aged and distilled in Kentucky.

AdamWho says that?

AdamSo you're drinking your daily flask of Evan Williams.

AdamUh-huh.

AdamAnd one of these a day.

AdamYou didn't holiday it up in any way?

AdamNo, I mean, I could put some cinnamon in there or some shit, I guess so.

AdamPut some nutmeg or cinnamon in there.

AdamBut I don't want to waste the whole bottle.

AdamThese things cost like six bucks.

AdamAll right, uh Adam, uh what are you drinking this evening?

Guest AdamI'm drinking Heineken because we had it in the cupboard.

AdamThe only reason to drink Heineken.

Guest AdamAnd and it doesn't have like a, you know, it doesn't say it gives you floral notes of a phone kiosk outside a car park or anything like that.

Guest AdamBut it does say, please enjoy responsibly.

Guest AdamThe UK Chief Medical Officer's recommended adult recommended adults do not regularly drink more than 14 units per week.

AdamWhoa.

Adam14 units a week?

Guest AdamWhich is two that's seven pints. That's seven pints.

AdamSeven pints.

AdamOkay. So they'll even say that like.

AdamThat's like that's like a reasonable amount of alcohol to drink per week.

AdamYeah, but you know what? Here in the States, they're not like they'll tell you don't drink this much in a sitting.

AdamThey're not fucking telling you what to do for a week.

AdamYou don't judge me, government.

AdamJesus.

LeeWhat's the problem? They don't they say, this is how much to have a week and then they say, don't save it all up and binge it. And it's like, well, tell us how much we should have every two days then, for Christ's sake, right?

AdamRight.

AdamYeah, I do uh, I do like two drinks a day uh during the weekdays and then, you know, Fridays it's it's game on.

AdamLet's see what happens.

AdamAnd then uh I got to introduce uh, you know, you you've heard if you've heard episodes of not for everyone podcast, there's a few in the past where we did the white claw challenge a couple times in which I thought, I I uh we I tested to see if it was actually possible to catch a buzz off of white claw hard seltzers.

AdamAnd uh much to my chagrin, yes, it very much is. It is possible.

AdamI've watched. I I've been there when it happens. It happens.

AdamSo we want to apply that scientific test to uh eggnog, which is a festive drink.

AdamUh anyone have thoughts on eggnog in general?

AdamI know you either like it or you don't.

AdamThere's very few people that are neither here nor there about it.

AdamI like it. I don't go out of my way to get it, though.

AdamI like dick.

AdamBut otherwise, I'm not like, oh, yeah, eggnog's on sale. Like, I don't care.

AdamOkay, fair enough.

AdamUh any anyone eggnog haters in the crowd right now?

Guest AdamI'm not entirely sure, but I don't think I can drink it again because I the only time I did drink it and I can't remember what it tasted like, um, but I drank a lot of other stuff and threw up and that was part of the throw-up.

AdamThat'll happen.

Guest AdamAnd most of the other drinks that were on that list that night, I can't touch anymore, so I'm kind of assuming I can't drink eggnog anymore either.

AdamUm, here's some word word of advice from personal experience. Never mix white Russians with tequila shots.

AdamOoh.

AdamCollege mistake, college mistake.

AdamOf many.

AdamUm, all right Lee, what do you got? You want to explain uh so I'm going to be drinking eggnog this entire time. I'm going to see if if I can catch a buzz on it.

AdamI know that Lee is drinking uh eggnog in addition to other things, although he says he's not here to get very ridiculous.

LeeWell, yeah, so so I'm drinking eggnog but over here we don't get it like pre-made so if you have it, you have to make it yourself.

LeeUm, so we've followed our traditional recipe, um, so I've made I I love it, but because we make it ourselves, I do see what goes into it, so as a result, I normally only have it on Christmas Day.

AdamOkay.

LeeBut as you said you were going to see if you could get drunk on it, I couldn't see why you were confused about that when I know that when I do it, I'll put half a bottle of cognac in it.

LeeSo, I've made a batch of it up.

AdamThe science is already settled, basically.

AdamIt's not a sound hypothesis.

LeeYeah, so I've got a pint and a half of it. It's got uh half a bottle of cognac in it. Um, but yeah, I have had two hard seltzers and a double punk at 8.2% before I started it.

LeeSo um I'm not here to get drunk, but if I do fall over, just carry on recording.

AdamLee, you are literally like the the English version of Bobby. Like that's what I'm seeing now.

AdamIt's just weird. It's weird.

AdamYou seem like less of a douche, but less of a douche.

AdamUm, hey Bobby, I got to ask you a question, man.

AdamSo, are you just using like the eggnog you bought at fucking HB? That's a grocery store.

AdamIs that is it grocery store eggnog?

AdamGreat question, Adam.

AdamI walked in last night with a bottle of uh, I went to the liquor store, my buddy the liquor store.

AdamIt was a yes or no question, Bobby, it was a yes or no question.

AdamMy buddy the liquor store, he works there. I know him. He's my buddy because I met him at the liquor store.

AdamUh, I told him about this little experiment and he's like, oh, just buy this stuff. It's really good.

AdamHe recommended it. It's called Pennsylvania Dutch eggnog made with real dairy cream, rum, brandy, and blended whiskey, so it's a whole trifecta fun there.

AdamUm, and I walked in in the door with it and my wife saw it. She's like, are you is that for the show? And I was like, yeah.

AdamAnd uh she asked me, you know, what Lee was doing and I told her I told her she's that he's making like homemade style eggnog, like traditional with actual egg whites and cognac.

AdamAnd for whatever reason, that made her say, I'd very much like to visit him.

AdamSo that was that was the clincher that uh convinced uh us that we we want to go visit Lee because he makes homemade eggnog.

AdamI don't think he even likes eggnog.

AdamYeah, he's like, he's like a better British you.

AdamThat's great.

AdamI love you, Lee.

AdamYou're fucking awesome.

LeeIf you get if you get the opportunity, drink his cider.

LeeOh yeah, I've got two apple trees and I make cider in the uh in the winter and it's normally ready for about Christmas time and that is a bit special.

LeeThank you Adam.

Guest AdamThat's Fox Killer.

LeeYeah.

Guest AdamBecause it was the apples that killed a fox.

LeeOh yeah.

LeeYeah, we had some windfalls and a fox ate them and then died at the end of the garden and I was like, that's that's what I've made my cider from.

Guest AdamBest cider since.

AdamYou can taste the the uh soul of a fox and Lee's cider.

Guest AdamNow, this is the marketing we need.

AdamYes. Fox Killer cider.

AdamThat would sell.

AdamI'd drink it.

AdamIf it'll kill a fox, I'll fucking give it a shot.

AdamProbably get you drunk if nothing else.

AdamWords to live by from uh Crude Rude Dude.

AdamSo what's next, Bobby? What's next on the agenda, boys?

AdamYou know what? I'm going to let you take it, Crude Rude Dude, cuz uh I don't need you to defer to me after scolding me 15 minutes ago.

AdamSo what do you got next?

AdamWhat do you want to do?

AdamSo what we're going to do is the same thing that we did last time. We're going to go over the welcome to everyone's top holiday movies.

AdamAnd this time it's Christmas edition.

AdamSo, each of us are going to spew off some of our favorite uh holiday movies for the holiday of Christmas, which is we're in the month of December and and whatnot.

AdamSo uh, we're going to start with the best name in the dictionary, Adam from Angland, give us give us one of your top holiday movies.

Guest AdamRight.

Guest AdamWell, I think I suspect that other people may have this.

Guest AdamUm, it's Batman Returns.

AdamYes.

AdamYes, that's my number one, man.

AdamThat's my number one.

LeeHey.

Guest AdamDid anyone else have it?

AdamNo, I I didn't take it because I knew you had it and I knew uh Crude Rude Dude had it, but I wouldn't have I wouldn't have taken it anyway.

Guest AdamOh, but it's I mean, it's just a yeah.

Guest AdamBasically, I know a lot of people, it's I I like to feel as a former goth, um,

AdamYou're goth still.

Guest AdamYeah.

Guest AdamI'm still, oh, I'm still goth.

Guest AdamIt's just, you know, I just acknowledge quite how horrible accoutrements this is to be plastered in makeup.

AdamIt's.

AdamYou're wearing a.

AdamHey, listen, you're wearing a David Lynch shirt, all right?

AdamThat's enough.

AdamYeah, that makes you goth immediately.

Guest AdamFantastic.

Guest AdamI feel true to myself then.

AdamDavid Lynch.

Guest AdamBut I I feel the goth the goth pretenders, it's Nightmare Before Christmas.

Guest AdamBut the actual Tim Burton Christmas movie, if you've got a rotten soul, is Batman Returns.

AdamSo what you're saying is, if you're Nightmare Before Christmas, you're team like Marilyn Manson.

AdamIf you're if you're Batman Returns, you're team like Bauhaus or skinny puppy or or something like that.

Guest AdamYeah, yeah.

Guest AdamYou're getting into the harder edge, I would say.

Guest AdamBecause and it's nothing nothing says Christmas like a twisted, orphan vigilante, stalking the streets, pursuing a deformed circus freak who is planning to kill all the children in the city and a woman who is basically been me-tooed to death by Christopher Walken, only to come back as like sexy death avenger of everything.

AdamDominatrix.

Guest AdamAnd you're like.

Guest AdamYeah.

Guest AdamAnd it's yeah.

Guest AdamAnd that reminds me of Christmas.

AdamJesus Christ.

AdamIt certainly does, Adam.

AdamI you know, I can't the way you just described it is like really like what my soul says that movie is.

AdamYou put it into words in a way that I couldn't.

Guest AdamThank you, sir.

AdamI I that's my favorite Batman movie for one, because A, Batman kills so many motherfuckers.

AdamHe laughs as he fucking attaches dynamite to somebody and kicks him in the sewer.

AdamBatman smirks when a motherfucker blows up.

AdamAnd then and then you got DeVito as the Penguin running for mayor and Cliff Walkin.

AdamSo, hands down, Batman Returns, best Batman, best Christmas movie, that was going to be my number one.

AdamSo, I guess when I'm doing any particular order, maybe we are, but you just took my number one, Adam.

Guest AdamOh, well, I I feel join I feel it is our joining in our number one, shall we say?

AdamYeah, stealing it.

Guest AdamCuz I think definitely it's it's the one that really of of everything on there, it's the one that really ticks the box of, no, I will watch that at Christmas.

Guest AdamAnd I will love the fact that someone actually thought, oh, yeah, this is a great Christmas movie.

Guest AdamAnd then lots of people panicked and said, bring it out in the summer for fuck's sake.

Guest AdamBecause this is not a Christmas.

AdamYou're right.

AdamThey're like, please God.

AdamThere's a particularly in this movie where like they launch a kind of like jester clown onto the giant Gotham City.

AdamUh Christmas tree there.

AdamNo, no.

AdamHe goes and steals a baby.

AdamIs what he does.

AdamHe steals a baby.

AdamLike uh just like they did in biblical times.

AdamYeah.

Guest AdamIt's it's it's Herod.

Guest AdamBut like and Danny DeVito, this is this is the best fucking this is probably Danny DeVito's best role.

Guest AdamHe is just perfectly fucking horrible.

ChrisIt's darkest hour.

Guest AdamYeah, it's brilliantly and again.

Guest AdamIt's like, this is this is kind of a kids' film.

AdamMmm.

Guest AdamYou know, but it's still it's it's dark as all fuck.

Guest AdamAnd the first the first Tim Burton Batman's pretty dark.

Guest AdamBut a yes.

AdamBatman.

AdamI'm addicted to Funko Pops and they just released the Danny DeVito as the Penguin.

AdamSo I had to buy that shit.

AdamIs it fair to did it does it have to be like.

AdamDid it have to be set during Christmas, though?

AdamOr does it just happen to be?

AdamNo, that movie could have been set any time.

AdamBut it was set during Christmas because Tim Burton's like, I'm going to make my Christmas movie.

AdamAnd it's Batman and the Penguin's running for mayor and killing kids.

AdamIt's great.

Guest AdamBut also in that film, that's the other thing I like about it, is it still has the bits that are a kid's superhero film.

Guest AdamLike where the fucking like an army of penguins with rockets on them.

LeeYeah.

Guest AdamLike invades Gotham, which is like proper Adam West Batman.

Guest AdamThat's proper.

Guest AdamBut also it's like, oh, yeah, the penguins with rockets are invading Gotham.

Guest AdamMeanwhile, you know, like flipper-handed Herod has kidnapped everyone's children.

Guest AdamAnd you're like.

AdamAnd he bites a man's nose.

Guest AdamOh, yes.

AdamCould be worse, my nose could be.

ChrisJust covered with blood.

AdamNow, that movie will definitely is explains a lot about the person I am, and I'm sure Crude Rude Dude is today.

AdamUh-huh.

AdamSo, who's next?

AdamWho's next?

AdamYou're running the show here, Crude Rude Dude.

AdamWho do you got next?

AdamWhy do I have to run the show?

AdamBecause you were bitching about it earlier.

AdamLet's go, uh, let's let's go back and forth across the ocean here.

AdamI was going to go with Batman Returns, right?

AdamBut uh Adam sold that from me.

AdamSo uh, I'm going to stick with uh, we we mentioned this a little bit.

AdamChris brought it up, like horror movies.

AdamBecause when I was thinking of my list, like the majority of my my Christmas favorite movies are, you know, Batman Returns and shit like that.

AdamBut I wanted to go with one that's an actual horror movie.

AdamAnd Silent Night Deadly Night is without a doubt.

AdamIt's it's a it's a great Christmas movie.

AdamBut it's just a great slasher horror movie.

AdamHands down, that movie's fantastic.

AdamThoughts?

AdamAnd has everybody seen, who's seen Silent Night Deadly Night?

ChrisNo.

Guest AdamI have.

Guest AdamI saw it I saw it years ago.

Guest AdamAnd remember but I just I remember it more as a that was just proper.

Guest AdamLike you say.

Guest AdamThat is a proper slasher film.

AdamLinnea Quigley's in it.

AdamIs she?

AdamI remember that.

AdamHere's here's what I remember about the movie.

AdamAnd this is why if you haven't seen the movie, you haven't seen it in decades, this is why you should watch it.

AdamThe movie starts out with a kid and his parents going to the old folks' home to visit grandpa.

AdamNow, grandpa is near catatonic, so he won't talk to anybody.

AdamBut the parents and the doctors walk away to go go discuss him behind closed doors.

AdamAnd and grandpa comes alive and starts talking to the grandkid.

AdamAnd he starts telling him, you know, about Santa Claus, right?

AdamThe kid's like, yeah.

AdamHe's like, well, you know Santa Claus gives presents to the good kids, right?

AdamHe's like, yeah.

AdamHe's like, you know what Santa Claus does to the bad kids?

AdamThe kid's like, no.

AdamHe says, Santa Claus punishes them.

AdamSo, fucking grandpa instills this terror of Santa Claus into an eight-year-old child.

AdamAnd then they leave.

AdamAnd they're driving home, and while they're driving home, there's a Santa Claus in the middle of the street and he's like, I need help.

AdamAnd so the parents try to help him, and Santa Claus murders the parents in front of the kid.

AdamYes.

LeeI didn't say this.

LeeIt's great.

LeeI didn't say this.

AdamAnd if you watch Silent Night Deadly Night 2, it's you know when uh like sitcoms would get lazy and they do like the variety show where they just the clip show where they show clips of previous episodes.

AdamUm, that's essentially Silent Night Deadly Night 2. It's all like something like 70% of it is just footage from the original one in the form of flashbacks.

AdamAnd that's where you see, you know, the famous like garbage day meme slash video that was going around the internet for garbage day, that's Silent Night Deadly Night 2.

AdamAnyway.

ChrisSo is that a proper not for everyone?

AdamIt is.

AdamThe only thing.

ChrisIt does sound like it.

AdamWe've we've kind of backed her away into a corner around Christmas time because we've always done we're not doing Christmas movies during Christmas time.

AdamUh for the most part.

AdamBut one day, maybe we will.

AdamOne day.

AdamYou know what, let's do a Christmas movie, let's do Silent Night Deadly Night in like June.

AdamJust say fuck everybody.

Guest AdamDo the do the Batman Returns release schedule.

AdamYeah.

Guest AdamDo all your Christmas movies when it's absolutely blazing hot.

AdamCrude Rude Dude, that was a great Christmas pick, Silent Night Deadly Night.

AdamUm, I'm wondering if anyone chose Miracle on 34th Street, is that ever going to come up in this uh in this conversation?

AdamBut so far no, it's it's.

AdamWe'll find out.

AdamIt's murderous penguins that that steal children and a guy who witnesses his father getting killed by Santa Claus.

AdamUm, Chris, what do you got?

ChrisWell, so, I I don't have my favorite Christmas movies exactly.

ChrisBecause uh I've just not had that many that I watch regularly.

ChrisHowever, since doing Welcome to Horror, I've now got a few that could now exist in a Christmas list.

ChrisAnd the first one is going to be Gremlins, because that does that does encapsulate everything I think you need in a a great fun Christmas movie as well as having some horror aspects to it.

ChrisYes.

AdamYeah.

ChrisYeah.

ChrisBut uh it's it's just, you know, it's just an awesome film.

ChrisUm cute cute creature that turns into, you know, sort of more cute creatures, but with a nasty side.

AdamYeah.

ChrisBut, you know, really, what more do you want?

ChrisSo, excellent cast.

AdamYeah, I I am a fan of Gremlins.

AdamI'm glad it came up, obviously.

AdamUm, it it does have that nice mix of horror, comedy, cuteness and Corey Feldman. So and cute Corey Feldman. So one of his finest performances, to be honest with you.

AdamI'm not even saying that jokingly.

AdamCorey Feldman's a great actor.

ChrisHe does some great performances.

AdamUm, any any thoughts on Gremlins from the rest of us?

Guest AdamI'm just really heartened that Chris cuz we did cover it as an episode.

ChrisWe did.

Guest AdamBecause we we we just we just played to the numbers.

Guest AdamAnd we just we always do Christmas episode like Christmas films for Christmas episodes.

Guest AdamAnd we are kind of now running out, that's one of the that's probably the problem with doing that.

Guest AdamUm, but yeah, it's it's a great Christmas film because I I like the fact that it's very.

Guest AdamIt's basically it's a wonderful life and then you put a load of spiteful little monsters in there.

Guest AdamAnd yeah, that feels.

AdamIt's like having children.

AdamJust like having children.

AdamVery much so.

LeeBecause I considered that I I so I had a discussion with Lady Jennifer uh this evening before we started recording and I said to her, you know, if it were you, what would you choose?

LeeUm, and she said Gremlins and then before she'd even taken a breath, she went, no, Gremlins 2. Gremlins 2 is a far superior movie.

LeeAnd it's.

AdamIt's got Hulk Hogan.

ChrisThat is, yeah.

ChrisNow I was going to try and sneak Gremlins 2 in alongside Gremlins and say that really for the full experience you have to watch both on the same day.

ChrisAnd yeah, like the the difference between them is fantastic.

ChrisBecause Gremlins 2 is just crazy.

AdamIt's got a spider.

AdamIt's got a hot chick Gremlin.

ChrisAnything you can think of is in there.

AdamWait, was Gremlins 2 at Christmas, though?

ChrisSo it wasn't but you know.

LeeIt's not. Oh.

ChrisSo if you watch the first one, it's okay.

AdamYeah.

AdamI'm going to say this.

AdamOkay, I guess that makes it my turn.

AdamUm, I'm going to have to go with something the first uh things I thought of were things uh that I grew up on and things that this is one of those movies that though it is a Christmas movie, I still wanted to rent it all the time throughout the year when I was very, very young, for whatever reason.

AdamAnd I still love the movie to this day, 1988's uh Bill Murray starring Scrooged. And uh we talk about 1988 a lot on on that for everyone podcast and how it's just a um, it's just a tsunami of of great entertainment, right, Adam?

AdamIt definitely is. Definitely is my favorite.

AdamIf you don't know, Scrooged is the uh is a reimagining of Charles Dickens's classic a Christmas Carol, right?

AdamOnly it stars uh Bill Murray as your Ebenezer Scrooge character and um there's just wonderful, I believe Frank Oz did a lot of the puppetry in it.

AdamUm, just the those types of visuals where it's like that comedy horror mix, um again, just explained so much about the the taste I've developed and uh the um the psychological scars I have as an adult.

AdamThings of that nature.

AdamUm, it's it's an absolute uh December essential, killer cast, Karen Allen from uh Raiders of the Lost Ark.

AdamBuster Point Dextra.

AdamThe love interest.

AdamBuster Poindexter.

AdamHot, hot, hot.

AdamUm, Bobcat Goldthwaites in it.

AdamYeah.

AdamUm, I isn't uh isn't Mama Fratelli?

AdamThrow Mama Fratelli from the train in that movie as well?

AdamRobert Mitchum's in this movie.

AdamIt's.

AdamIt's a uh absolute comedy horror Christmas classic and it makes you feel good by the end of it.

AdamSo uh, and in the same way that a traditional Christmas Carol movie would do.

AdamUh any anyone else thoughts on Scrooged?

ChrisI haven't seen it for a long time.

ChrisBut I think you've convinced me there that I need to watch that again.

ChrisBecause that is a great list of characters.

AdamI remember um going to the the video rental store and and and it wasn't Christmas time.

AdamAnd then my sister yelling at me because I wanted to rent it because it was like, you know, May, April or May or something.

AdamShe's like, no, we're not renting that.

AdamIt's not even Christmas time.

AdamGetting Earth Girls are Easy.

AdamUm, which is another great film that doesn't belong on this list.

AdamBut uh.

LeeYeah, no, I was just going to say the same, like it's I I almost when Chris said, I haven't seen this, I'm glad he saved himself by saying for a long time.

LeeBecause I thought in the moment, he hadn't seen it.

LeeAnd I was like, well, that's why Chris Christmas schedule, fuck.

LeeBecause we need to re-record this entire show.

AdamThis just turns into a watch party immediately. Like, well, fuck this.

AdamWe're going to go watch Scrooged.

AdamWe're not recording this episode anymore.

Guest AdamNo, we'll keep it rolling. It just becomes a commentary episode.

Guest AdamIt nearly nearly was on the list. I had a real decision on like two movies.

Guest AdamAnd Scrooged was nearly there.

Guest AdamAnd the main reason is, I've never owned Scrooged on DVD or video or anything like that.

Guest AdamBut I've never had to because at Christmas, I would go and see Lee.

Guest AdamOr I would go and see Dean.

Guest AdamLee's brother.

Guest AdamOr I would see them both together.

Guest AdamAnd we would watch Scrooged.

LeeAlways.

Guest AdamAlways I would always, yeah, that and that.

Guest AdamThat for me was like sort of that is Christmas tradition and in a way it just was like, oh, shit.

Guest AdamYeah, it's made me miss actually going around people's houses.

Guest AdamBecause it was like, yeah, no, that would be that would be when I saw Scrooged, is I'd go go and see Lee, I'd go and see Dean and usually, yeah, I'd be watch I'd watch Scrooged twice in one week.

Guest AdamBut.

Guest AdamThat's the sort of film that you do watch twice in one week.

AdamAnd and what's kind of interesting about it is like it's one of the only, if not the only, at least on the top of my head, movie where I I think of uh Bill Murray's character being a total prick.

AdamBut he's still somehow Bill Murray at the same time.

AdamLike you still love him because like, oh, that's Bill Murray.

AdamBut he's.

AdamBut he's just an awful human being.

Guest AdamYeah, that that is the trick with Bill Murray a lot of the time, though.

AdamJust in general.

Guest AdamWell, I think even like sort of something like Ghostbusters he always played a shithouse that you like.

AdamThat's true.

Guest AdamHe's always on his side, but he's the dickhead of the movie every time. They would be people who if they were played by anyone else.

Guest AdamYou would probably you would probably not like the movie because you're like, well, why are they giving this guy any kudos or anything?

Guest AdamBut Bill Murray somehow makes it okay to be a prick.

AdamHe's a lovable asshole.

AdamI get it.

AdamI get where you're coming from.

AdamIf Bill Murray knocked on my door on Christmas Day and and walked into my house and stabbed my mother, I would be like, oh, Bill Murray.

AdamIt's so funny.

LeeAnd the irony is, you know of all the celebrities, he's probably the one who'd just turn up.

LeeDo all your uh, do all your dishes and your laundry and then leave you.

AdamAnd just leave, yeah.

LeeSupposedly the nicest guy on the planet.

AdamIn Austin, we have South by Southwest.

AdamBefore the the Dracula plague hit.

AdamAnd he would just show up to bars or not even during South by, he would show up to bars in Austin randomly and just get behind the bar and just start serving people.

AdamThat's why.

AdamThey were like, oh, yeah.

AdamBill Murray's here.

ChrisSo is he head-to-head with Keanu Reeves then for the nicest guy in Hollywood?

AdamPretty much. Possibly, possibly.

AdamYeah.

AdamBut Bill Murray's actually talented, so he wins that.

AdamOh.

AdamThat was going to be my thought.

AdamThat would be the clincher is which one is the better actor. Bill Murray.

AdamHey, listen, I like Keanu Reeves movies.

AdamI love them.

AdamHe doesn't fuck up a movie, right?

AdamIt's just about.

AdamBut he's just kind of like a blank slate, man.

AdamLike, I love Keanu Reeves, don't get me wrong.

AdamBut he's not going to win fucking best dramatic actor ever, you know what I mean?

AdamLike.

AdamNicolas Cage can win an Oscar, Keanu, he knows he's not going to win an Oscar.

AdamAnd he's cool with that.

AdamAnd that's why I like about him.

LeeI absolutely agree.

LeeI'll watch anything he's in, he's supposed to be the nicest guy you'll ever meet.

LeeHe is a terrible actor.

LeeI'll still watch everything he's in because it's him and I love him.

AdamHe's not look at.

AdamI like the sound of his voice.

Guest AdamIn a weird way, I think he's a bit like Arnie. I think he knows his limitations.

AdamYep.

Guest AdamAnd plays to his strengths.

Guest AdamYou know, I don't think he he's not under the illusion, he's never going to be the guy who's like, oh, he spent six months running the Royal Shakespeare Company.

Guest AdamAnd.

Guest AdamHe gave us his amazing Hamlet.

Guest AdamHe ain't going to do that.

AdamHe's not the guy where they're like, yeah, he he really submerges himself in a role.

AdamHe doesn't he doesn't immerse himself in the role.

AdamHe's just like, yeah, I'm going to be Keanu Reeves and it's going to work.

AdamYeah, I'm going to read this set of lines.

AdamRight, read them like Keanu Reeves would.

AdamYou're fine, it's fine.

AdamDon't do anything else.

AdamAll right, so Christmas movies.

LeeThey fucking.

LeeOh yeah, yeah, yeah.
