00:00Just when I thought I was out, they pulled me back in.
00:02People use that line all the time.
00:04I don't know if they know where it's from.
00:06It's not the first Godfather.
00:08It's not the second Godfather.
00:10It's Godfather number three, who everybody makes fun of
00:13and talks about how terrible of a movie it is.
00:15And yet, I think that's the quote from the Godfather series
00:18that actually gets used the most.
00:21Maybe up there with, I'll make you an offer you can't refuse
00:24from the original Godfather.
00:25Those are like the only two lines I can think of off the top of my head.
00:28The only two references people use from the Godfathers.
00:31And ironically, the line that Max Crosby used,
00:34he's probably never even seen the movie,
00:35but it's from Godfather 3, which, by the way,
00:38I actually did like the ending.
00:39You get that famous line and scene in the kitchen with Pacino.
00:43And even though everyone makes fun of it,
00:44if you go on Rotten Tomatoes, it is, you know,
00:47it's a 66 amongst audience.
00:48I think a 68 amongst critics.
00:50Not terrible, but the way people talk about Godfather 3,
00:53and I guess just in comparison to the first two.
00:55You know, they talk about how it should have never been made.
00:57It's this terrible movie, yada, yada, yada.
00:59I actually think it's slightly underrated.
01:01I thought it had a really good ending to it,
01:03and then it has maybe the most famous quote that people use
01:06from the three movies, even if they don't realize it's from Godfather 3.
01:10What about Godfather 1, I think?
01:11Is it leave the gun, keep the cannolis?
01:14Yeah, but how often do people actually say it?
01:16I don't know.
01:17Or use it?
01:17I mean, even in The Sopranos, they use the, like,
01:20the pull-me-back-in line,
01:22and it became, like, famous in that scene of The Sopranos.
01:25Okay, yeah, fair enough, fair enough.
01:27So, I am with you 100% on this.
01:30Oh, wow.
01:31100% on this.
01:32I think that Godfather 3 is criminally underrated,
01:35but I do know what ruins it.
01:38There are two things that ruin it.
01:40Or, not ruin it, but,
01:42so there's one thing that ruins it,
01:44and then another thing that just makes it
01:46not up there with the Pantheon,
01:48or makes it underrated.
01:50For starters, I think people underrate it
01:53because it's just, it is not as good as the first two.
01:57No.
01:57Like, objectively.
01:58But the first two are so good,
02:01they're arguably the best movies ever made
02:04in the history of making movies,
02:06that that's just a real difficult standard
02:08to hold it by,
02:10but it is being held by that standard, right?
02:12So, it's so far off from the other two movies
02:16that are, like, in a whole other sort of echelon
02:20and world existence, right?
02:21So, that's the one thing.
02:23Also, though,
02:24the big problem with Godfather 3
02:27is the daughter,
02:30the performance of the daughter,
02:33who's both the daughter of the director,
02:36and she went on to direct movies
02:38and have a successful directorial career,
02:40but was not an actress.
02:42And the acting,
02:44for how critical of a role she played in the movie,
02:49her acting was so bad
02:51that it really brought the property values down in the movie.
02:54It really brought,
02:55it took the movie from a mansion
02:57to, like, you know, a duplex.
03:01Like, it really hurt.
03:03That's fair.
03:04Really, really hurt.
03:05Yeah, it's a classic case of nepotism.
03:07Yes.
03:08She should not have had that role or been in a movie.
03:10It was terrible.
03:11Yeah.
03:11Honestly, I think part of the reason why she's even been as successful
03:14she has behind the camera is also part, you know,
03:16because of her family.
03:17Well, clearly.
03:18Clearly, clearly.
03:19I mean, but at least,
03:20barely, it's not as obvious, you know,
03:23it's behind the camera.
03:25Like, you watch that movie,
03:26you're like, man,
03:27this girl's got to be kin to somebody
03:29to be in this movie.
03:30And she definitely was.
03:32Yeah, it's true.
03:32And I think it hurts the movie.
03:33Yeah.
03:34But I'm with you there in terms of the story,
03:37the acting otherwise.
03:39I think Godfather 3 is a damn good movie.
03:41All right, finally.
03:42I like it.
03:43You might be the first person, honestly,
03:45that everyone,
03:45I think it's just become that whole, like,
03:47sheep thought process.
03:48Everyone just talks about how bad it is.
03:50It's not a bad movie.
03:50I don't think it's terrible,
03:52but I have re-watched the first and second Godfathers,
03:55like, probably anywhere between 10 and 20 times.
03:58And I'm not sure I've ever re-watched the Godfather 3.
04:00That's fair.
04:01It does not have the same re-watchability factor.
04:04But I think that goes back to the girl I said.
04:08She was so bad.
04:09Yeah, you might be right.
04:10It's a tough watch.
04:11She was awful.
04:12You can't watch her more than once.
04:13What would you guys say?
04:15I'm not saying Godfather 3 is the most underrated.
04:17I think it's one of the more underrated movies.
04:20If I'm putting you on the spot,
04:21anything come to mind that you would say
04:23is one of the more underrated films?
04:25Underrated flicks.
04:26I'm going to go with Cooley High.
04:30I've never heard of her.
04:31I'm going Cooley High because,
04:33just for the simple fact that y'all don't even know
04:35what Cooley High is.
04:37Now, this is a little bit of a Two Americas thing
04:39happening here, all right?
04:41But I think because of that,
04:43it makes the movie underrated.
04:45But it's a really good movie.
04:471975, Cooley High.
04:49If you look up,
04:50you'll see a lot of folks that you recognize
04:54from the movie that are much older actors now,
04:58obviously,
04:59that being in 1975.
05:01But for me,
05:03there's a cultural significance of it
05:06because it's kind of known
05:08as this turning point for black movies,
05:11where it had kind of been a
05:12blaxploitation type of vibe
05:16up until that point.
05:17It was like,
05:17hey,
05:17this is just a regular,
05:19a regular-ass black rom-com.
05:22You know,
05:22just a normal movie.
05:24But also,
05:26it was,
05:28I thought,
05:29trendsetting and groundbreaking
05:30in a lot of ways.
05:31Like,
05:31it's the first place.
05:32I don't know if you ever
05:33are with a group
05:34and you're about to drink
05:36from a bottle of liquor
05:37or a bottle of alcohol
05:38of any kind
05:39and the person pours out
05:40a little bit.
05:41The first place
05:42where I've ever seen that done,
05:44pour this out
05:44for the brothers who ain't here,
05:46is from Cooley High.
05:48And they did it,
05:49they eventually do it
05:50in Boys in the Hood.
05:52And,
05:52you know,
05:53it's like a,
05:54you know,
05:54a cultural thing
05:55that we do now.
05:56Like,
05:56let's pour out a little bit
05:58of this
05:58for the people
05:59that are not here.
06:00I'd never seen that before
06:01with Cooley High,
06:02you know,
06:02in 1975.
06:04So,
06:06and I just re-watched
06:07Cooley High
06:07like three days ago.
06:08And it's always good
06:10watching movies
06:11as an adult
06:11that you watch as a kid
06:12and picking up
06:13on some things.
06:13But,
06:13I'm gonna go Cooley High
06:15because it is a
06:16black movie classic,
06:18but I feel like,
06:19no offense,
06:20white folks don't even
06:21know about Cooley High.
06:21I did not know about it,
06:23so.
06:23Great movie.
06:23You're right there.
06:24I'm gonna put it on my list.
06:26I gotta check it out.
06:26It is an 88
06:27on Rotten Tomatoes,
06:28by the way,
06:28so.
06:29Oh, wow.
06:29Yeah.
06:30Rated out well.
06:31I wanna check that out too.
06:32Yeah,
06:32what about you, Tyler?
06:33You got anything
06:33that comes to mind
06:34most underrated movie?
06:35Been thinking over here.
06:36I think I got one,
06:38maybe.
06:39It's kind of a quirky,
06:41like,
06:42I guess,
06:43rom-com,
06:45like,
06:45comedy movie.
06:46It's called
06:46500 Days of Summer.
06:48Have y'all ever seen
06:49or heard of it?
06:50I've never seen it.
06:51So,
06:51it's very rewatchable.
06:54I've rewatched it
06:54quite a few times
06:55because you could also argue
06:56it's a semi-chick flick,
06:58but a lot of comedy in it.
07:02So,
07:02no,
07:03it's got
07:03Zooey Deschanel,
07:05Joseph Gordon,
07:06love it,
07:07and just kind of
07:08follows them
07:09and their romance,
07:11relationship,
07:11kind of what they go through
07:12as young people,
07:13but it's a really,
07:15really good movie
07:15and I just don't think
07:16people know about it.
07:17I'm gonna have to put it
07:18on the list.
07:18Yeah,
07:19I'll check it out.
07:19500 Days of Summer.
07:20I've always heard about it,
07:21never watched it,
07:21maybe because I'm not
07:22opposed to chick flicks either,
07:24but I won't watch all of them.
07:26Maybe that's what turned me away.
07:27Can I throw an extra one in here?
07:30Yeah.
07:30I don't remember how many awards,
07:32if any,
07:33this one won,
07:33but I feel like no one ever talks about
07:35Phone Booth with Colin Farrell
07:37and Keith Roussel.
07:38We loved that movie growing up.
07:39I hadn't seen that in a while,
07:41but that's a good movie.
07:42No one ever talks about it,
07:43but I'm like,
07:44man,
07:44what an awesome ass movie
07:46that you can't remake today
07:47because what the hell is a phone booth?
07:49But,
07:49at the time,
07:51when,
07:51like,
07:52it was made at a time
07:52when,
07:53at the very least,
07:54you still knew what a phone booth was.
07:55It wasn't a foreign concept.
07:57Yeah.
07:57And it's so good.
07:59Like,
08:00Colin Farrell and Kiefer Sutherland,
08:02who,
08:02Just voice acting,
08:03Just voice acting,
08:04for the most part,
08:05for almost the entire movie.
08:07So good.
08:07It is some of the best stuff I've ever seen.
08:11No one ever talks about this movie.
08:12I hadn't thought about that movie in forever.
08:15Prime Colin Farrell, man.
08:16He was,
08:17Great stuff.
08:17It was around that time
08:18when Colin Farrell was at the top of the game.
08:20He had,
08:20like,
08:21they did SWAT.
08:21Yeah,
08:22he was doing like two movies a year.
08:23He was a minority report.
08:23Yeah.
08:24And then he just kind of disappeared.
08:25Obviously now he's made a comeback here in recent years.
08:27But he,
08:28like,
08:28disappeared for a while.
08:29And I remember wondering for a time,
08:30like,
08:30what happened to Colin?
08:31He was the hottest actor going for,
08:33you know,
08:33the early 2000s.
08:34Yeah.
08:34And then he had a lull,
08:35and now he's back and doing well again.
08:37But,
08:37yeah,
08:38that's a good movie.
08:38You know,
08:39I'm obviously a big Seinfeld guy,
08:40and Seinfeld always got a lot of credit
08:41for the Chinese restaurant episode
08:43where they just filmed it all
08:44in a Chinese restaurant.
08:45But this is similar where,
08:46yeah,
08:47it's just all in a phone booth
08:49with two guys on the phone,
08:50and it's such a captivating movie.
08:52That is a good movie.
08:53I haven't seen it in probably 20 years,
08:54but that's another one I would like to re-watch.
08:56Same.
08:56I should re-watch it.
08:57Yeah.
08:58It's maybe 15 for me,
09:00but,
09:00hell,
09:01I'm 15 years older.
09:02You know,
09:02I would love to,
09:03I would love to watch it from,
09:05you know,
09:05a 30,
09:07late 30s,
09:07mid to late 30s lens
09:09than I did from,
09:10you know,
09:10early 20s,
09:11and certainly when I first watched it
09:12as a teenager.
09:13And there is something that came out recently
09:15that was similar.
09:16Different idea.
09:17I can't think of,
09:17I just tried to Google it.
09:20But I remember having the conversation
09:22when I saw the trailer
09:23with the missus
09:24where we were like,
09:24this is a lot like phone booth,
09:26but a modern version,
09:26obviously not in a phone booth.
09:27And I can't think of it now.
09:29I'm going to have to try to Google this
09:30and come up with it
09:30where it's similar.
09:31It takes place like at one spot,
09:33the whole movie.
09:34And I think it's over the phone.
09:36How long ago did it come out?
09:36Have her texting in,
09:37if she might remember.
09:37Within the last year or two.
09:39Honestly,
09:39now I'm refreshing my memory.
09:40I might be thinking of
09:43the movie that came out
09:45about a year ago
09:46where a woman goes on a date.
09:47I don't know if it's called The Drop.
09:49She goes on a date with somebody
09:50and she's getting text messages
09:51and they're holding
09:52like her kid hostage at home
09:53but she can't leave the dinner.
09:54Oh, man.
09:56I think I've seen that.
09:57Yeah, we watched it.
09:58It wasn't bad.
09:59I have seen that.
09:59I can't remember the name of it either.
10:00That might be the movie
10:01I'm thinking of
10:02that we saw and we're like,
10:03oh, this is kind of like phone booth
10:04where she's at a dinner date
10:05for most of the movie
10:07and she's texting with the villain.
10:09Right.
10:09And the movie's taking place
10:11mostly with like text communication
10:12while she's at one venue.
10:14I was wondering if it was...
10:15But she can't like leave the date.
10:16Exactly.
10:16Yeah, yeah, yeah.
10:17I haven't seen that one.
10:18I'm going to have to look into that
10:19but I was wondering
10:19if it was Knock at the Cabin.
10:22Have you seen that one?
10:23Oh, that's a good movie.
10:24I saw that in theaters.
10:25I like that.
10:25Yeah, all one setting,
10:27all within that one house.
10:28Yeah.
10:29That's a great movie.
10:30That's a good movie
10:30because I'm not an M. Night Shyamalan guy
10:32but that one
10:33and I think that's based off a book
10:35so that's why
10:35one of his movies
10:36was actually good
10:37because he couldn't screw it up.
10:39I like M. Night Shyamalan, man.
10:41Oh, come on.
10:41I mean, not all of them.
10:42Some of them were kind of duds
10:43but I like a lot of his movies.
10:44That was the joke about that movie
10:46was the twist
10:47was that there was actually
10:48no twist for a worse
10:49in an M. Night Shyamalan movie.
10:50Everybody's always waiting
10:51on that twist again.
10:52Yeah, some nonsense
10:53to ruin the movie.
10:55On the text line,
10:56people have said a lot of movies
10:57that I don't know
10:58if I would consider underrated.
11:00Friday?
11:02Ray?
11:03300?
11:04Big Trouble in Little China?
11:06Ray?
11:07Jamie Foxx won the Oscar.
11:09Somebody even said Scarface.
11:10A lot of hardware
11:11for a lot of those
11:12you just listed.
11:13Fridays?
11:15Some people watch
11:16Friday every Friday.
11:17Yeah, right?
11:18Remember the Titans?
11:19The Departed?
11:20Come on.
11:20These are all...
11:21So these are just the movies
11:21you like.
11:22Exactly.
11:23I was going for movies
11:25that I like
11:25that people don't talk about.
11:27What about Zodiac?
11:29You ever seen Zodiac?
11:30Yeah.
11:30I didn't like it.
11:31I didn't think
11:32it should have been made.
11:33Oh, I love that movie.
11:34No, because we never
11:34solved who the Zodiac killer was.
11:36So you watch the whole movie
11:37and then at the end
11:37it's like, yeah,
11:37we still don't know.
11:38Well, that's the kind of the...
11:39I mean, I felt like
11:41that was on purpose though.
11:42I know, but that's why
11:43I didn't like it.
11:43They're like jacking with you.
11:44I was like,
11:45why did we make this movie?
11:46Jake Gyllenhaal is like
11:47one of my favorite actors.
11:48Yeah, he's excellent.
11:49You and me both.
11:49It's kind of how I felt
11:50about Moneyball
11:51which is a great movie.
11:52Yeah.
11:53But they didn't win the World Series.
11:54They got as far in the playoffs
11:55as they did the year before.
11:56Like, why do we make
11:57a movie about it?
11:57You change this whole thing
11:58and then, oh,
11:59the same thing happened.
12:00Okay.
12:00We're right back
12:01where we started.
12:01For the sake of movie making.
12:03Why do we watch
12:03two hours of this?
12:04If Luke's watching a movie
12:07based on a true story
12:08it better have a damn good
12:09happy ending.
12:10Yeah.
12:10What was the point
12:11of this true story?
12:12Exactly.
12:13That's what I'm saying.
12:13What's the point?
12:15Zodiac, yeah, we know.
12:16You never found the killer.
12:16I watched two hours
12:17of Gyllenhaal running around
12:18and at the end
12:19it's like, oh yeah,
12:19we don't know.
12:20Okay.
12:21We didn't know two hours ago.
12:23I could have saved the time.
12:25Somebody, oh,
12:26there was one I did want
12:27to point out
12:27that I somewhat agree with
12:30and now I lost it here.
12:31Beverly Hills Ninja
12:32with Chris Farley, right?
12:37Yeah.
12:37I think it's the last movie
12:38before he passed away.
12:39I don't think I saw
12:40Beverly Hills Ninja.
