Top Four 17: Movie Genres

 

00:00:00 ◼   ► all right so I forced Marco to finally

00:00:02 ◼   ► do a movie topic da da da da but we're

00:00:05 ◼   ► not gonna do our favorite movies yet we

00:00:10 ◼   ► are going to kind of start off pretty

00:00:12 ◼   ► broad and we're going to talk about our

00:00:14 ◼   ► favorite movie genres though so I think

00:00:17 ◼   ► that the rules are for this one it's um

00:00:20 ◼   ► obviously very personal

00:00:22 ◼   ► what movie genres you prefer watching

00:00:24 ◼   ► could be a pretty broad genre like genre

00:00:28 ◼   ► genre you were the one who just in

00:00:30 ◼   ► France you tell right yeah you know say

00:00:33 ◼   ► pop so it could be something pretty

00:00:35 ◼   ► broad like drama comedy or we could get

00:00:38 ◼   ► pretty specific like Judd Apatow movies

00:00:41 ◼   ► mine are somewhat specific yeah minor

00:00:43 ◼   ► mine are in the middle of specific I

00:00:47 ◼   ► didn't go like specific like Judd Apatow

00:00:50 ◼   ► movie is Marilyn Monroe movies movies

00:00:53 ◼   ► containing a strong female lead that's

00:00:55 ◼   ► one that Netflix likes to use oh yeah so

00:00:59 ◼   ► yeah I think we should start for all the

00:01:03 ◼   ► way up to one make sense we'll go

00:01:04 ◼   ► backwards for this one and um you want

00:01:07 ◼   ► to go first since I kind of forced your

00:01:09 ◼   ► hand does this whole movie thing cuz

00:01:10 ◼   ► Marco hardly ever watches movies yeah I

00:01:12 ◼   ► suppose yeah so my disclaimer front is

00:01:14 ◼   ► that I hardly ever watch movies I don't

00:01:16 ◼   ► feel that strongly about movies

00:01:18 ◼   ► generally I enjoy them when I'm watching

00:01:20 ◼   ► them but I don't really ever think hey

00:01:23 ◼   ► let's watch a movie tonight we watched a

00:01:25 ◼   ► movie last night yeah it was actually

00:01:27 ◼   ► good it was good

00:01:28 ◼   ► we watched the big short yes we and it

00:01:30 ◼   ► was very good we both enjoyed it right

00:01:32 ◼   ► yes very much enjoyed it yeah

00:01:34 ◼   ► recommended it and it was unnecessary

00:01:35 ◼   ► right it was yeah that's why I turned it

00:01:38 ◼   ► on because I like what's-his-face

00:01:40 ◼   ► what's-his-face right you know from the

00:01:42 ◼   ► office stop say his name's deeper up I

00:01:47 ◼   ► like him a lot and you know he was very

00:01:50 ◼   ► good

00:01:51 ◼   ► didn't he didn't get nominated for

00:01:52 ◼   ► something I think he got nominated for

00:01:54 ◼   ► an Oscar but didn't win won something

00:01:55 ◼   ► like that anyway very good movie the big

00:01:58 ◼   ► short so my number for the top movie

00:02:00 ◼   ► genre is comedies for smart people and

00:02:05 ◼   ► this is kind of hard to define I'm not

00:02:09 ◼   ► so wait if I type in comedies for smart

00:02:12 ◼   ► people

00:02:13 ◼   ► into google when am I gonna get I did

00:02:16 ◼   ► exactly that earlier oh I want to see

00:02:19 ◼   ► for myself hold on all right smart funny

00:02:21 ◼   ► intelligent comedies that what you

00:02:23 ◼   ► clicked on the first thing okay this is

00:02:27 ◼   ► gonna be interesting

00:02:27 ◼   ► okay well so so what I have in mind for

00:02:30 ◼   ► my comedies for smart people distinction

00:02:32 ◼   ► I gotta make some changes on my list

00:02:34 ◼   ► here okay go ahead

00:02:37 ◼   ► so basically movies you know first of

00:02:39 ◼   ► all these movies that a lot of geeks

00:02:41 ◼   ► find to be like smart comedy so things

00:02:43 ◼   ► like office space dr. Strangelove like

00:02:46 ◼   ► stuff like that and then I would also

00:02:49 ◼   ► put into this category a lot of Kevin

00:02:51 ◼   ► Smith movies especially you know earlier

00:02:53 ◼   ► on his own category honestly he almost

00:02:56 ◼   ► was in my list clerks in mall or ass

00:02:58 ◼   ► like that kind of you know I think

00:02:59 ◼   ► they're kind of like comedy for smart

00:03:01 ◼   ► people all right I would also this was a

00:03:03 ◼   ► tough one to categorize but I think I

00:03:06 ◼   ► would put Lock Stock and Two Smoking

00:03:08 ◼   ► Barrels in this category as well even

00:03:11 ◼   ► though it is kind of an action movie but

00:03:12 ◼   ► I would I would mostly consider it a

00:03:15 ◼   ► smart comedy movie yep some other people

00:03:17 ◼   ► would too on the internet yeah that's

00:03:20 ◼   ► right so that's my comedies for smart

00:03:21 ◼   ► people category and that's only your

00:03:23 ◼   ► number four mm-hmm that's interesting

00:03:25 ◼   ► what is your number four my number 4 is

00:03:29 ◼   ► romantic comedies which it's pretty

00:03:31 ◼   ► basic and easy

00:03:33 ◼   ► I like watching romantic comedies when I

00:03:35 ◼   ► do any kind of repetitive manual tasks

00:03:39 ◼   ► like sewing or sewing movie in the

00:03:46 ◼   ► background person that's me while you

00:03:47 ◼   ► watch them any more than you I if I'm

00:03:49 ◼   ► gonna watch a movie I want to only watch

00:03:51 ◼   ► the movie I can't have like a movie on

00:03:52 ◼   ► in the background to do something else

00:03:53 ◼   ► oh I will put movies on in the

00:03:56 ◼   ► background or TV shows you know

00:03:57 ◼   ► sometimes movie especially romantic

00:03:59 ◼   ► comedies that I've seen over and over

00:04:01 ◼   ► again I'll put those on in the

00:04:02 ◼   ► background while I'm editing photos just

00:04:04 ◼   ► because it's something to listen to that

00:04:06 ◼   ► I don't have to pay attention to but if

00:04:07 ◼   ► I want I need like a visual break

00:04:09 ◼   ► because sometimes staring into one photo

00:04:11 ◼   ► for a long time while fixing things is

00:04:14 ◼   ► just you're you got a lot of ice tray

00:04:17 ◼   ► and so you kind of like need to move

00:04:18 ◼   ► away from that and watching a moving

00:04:20 ◼   ► picture you're watching a movie is

00:04:22 ◼   ► really helpful for that for me so thanks

00:04:25 ◼   ► it's that's how I break up my

00:04:27 ◼   ► editing when I when I feel like my eyes

00:04:30 ◼   ► are just like drying out so yeah

00:04:33 ◼   ► romantic comedies and III like the

00:04:35 ◼   ► romantic comedies based on like usually

00:04:36 ◼   ► who's in them so it's kind of like you

00:04:39 ◼   ► know 90s early 2000s romantic comedies

00:04:42 ◼   ► which is probably people about our age

00:04:45 ◼   ► in their 30s also kind of flock to those

00:04:48 ◼   ► I like anything with like Sandra Bullock

00:04:50 ◼   ► Julia Roberts Hugh Grant Julia Stiles

00:04:52 ◼   ► you know like all that those kind of

00:04:54 ◼   ► typical romantic comedy stuff that's

00:04:58 ◼   ► just super surfacey and not even that

00:05:03 ◼   ► funny but I don't it's my number four

00:05:05 ◼   ► because I watch them a lot mm-hmm so I

00:05:08 ◼   ► wanted to kind of surprised it didn't

00:05:10 ◼   ► rank higher for you well I have some

00:05:12 ◼   ► better stuff that's higher that makes

00:05:14 ◼   ► sense that yeah but ya know the romantic

00:05:16 ◼   ► comedies are it had to be on there even

00:05:18 ◼   ► though it's embarrassing because I watch

00:05:21 ◼   ► them a lot and they're also fun

00:05:22 ◼   ► girlfriend movies so you have like

00:05:24 ◼   ► friends over and you were like you

00:05:25 ◼   ► really just want to hang out and

00:05:27 ◼   ► chitchat but you want a movie on at the

00:05:29 ◼   ► same time the the ROM con come right

00:05:33 ◼   ► that what you say I hate abbreviations

00:05:35 ◼   ► that sounds so dumb yeah yeah anyway the

00:05:38 ◼   ► romantic comedy is so a good go to if

00:05:40 ◼   ► it's not dirty dancing but dirty dancing

00:05:43 ◼   ► is its own category yeah actually my

00:05:48 ◼   ► number one is just dirty dancing no it's

00:05:53 ◼   ► a pretty great movie I mean we're not

00:05:54 ◼   ► doing our movie list right now don't

00:05:56 ◼   ► want to give it away we have to have

00:05:58 ◼   ► we're trying to you know siphon this out

00:06:00 ◼   ► of siphon it trickle sprinkle okay

00:06:08 ◼   ► sprinkle this out as long as possible

00:06:11 ◼   ► yeah trickle you might want to see your

00:06:13 ◼   ► doctor okay

00:06:14 ◼   ► so number three is my number three is

00:06:17 ◼   ► the make me angry liberal documentary I

00:06:25 ◼   ► love you so much yeah and so this would

00:06:27 ◼   ► include you know most Michael Moore

00:06:29 ◼   ► movies

00:06:30 ◼   ► most of what Merck and Spurlock does I

00:06:33 ◼   ► love the way you categorize this because

00:06:35 ◼   ► that's the reason documentaries didn't

00:06:36 ◼   ► make my list is because they made me

00:06:38 ◼   ► angry yes it's to make them make me

00:06:40 ◼   ► angry liberal

00:06:41 ◼   ► you marry this also there's lots of like

00:06:43 ◼   ► low-budget Wednesday's on Netflix that

00:06:45 ◼   ► we sometimes watch and of very varying

00:06:49 ◼   ► degrees of quality mostly terrible but I

00:06:52 ◼   ► really get a lot of joy out of the make

00:06:53 ◼   ► me angry liberal documentary and they do

00:06:55 ◼   ► make me angry and I still like watching

00:06:57 ◼   ► them I always make I always make you

00:06:59 ◼   ► pause while we're watching these

00:07:01 ◼   ► together whenever we watch documentaries

00:07:03 ◼   ► together I always make Marco pause the

00:07:04 ◼   ► documentaries so we can like yell at

00:07:06 ◼   ► each other about it and even though I'm

00:07:08 ◼   ► like where you were saying the same

00:07:10 ◼   ► thing or were we're being opposed to

00:07:12 ◼   ► something that's totally stupid the

00:07:14 ◼   ► documentary is highlighting purposely to

00:07:16 ◼   ► make you feel that way

00:07:17 ◼   ► we still pause it and yell about it and

00:07:20 ◼   ► I'm usually the one that pauses Marco

00:07:22 ◼   ► just listens to me yell it's a fun

00:07:26 ◼   ► watching experience for the family yeah

00:07:27 ◼   ► I just want to dropkick the TV sometimes

00:07:30 ◼   ► like oh my gosh yeah I just want to kick

00:07:35 ◼   ► the TV so hard that's why I can't have

00:07:37 ◼   ► that on my list because it makes me

00:07:39 ◼   ► wanna kick exactly that's fights in the

00:07:41 ◼   ► name alright that's my number three what

00:07:43 ◼   ► is your number three number three is

00:07:44 ◼   ► sticking with the romance and going with

00:07:47 ◼   ► the historical romance which are usually

00:07:49 ◼   ► not that historical because they are

00:07:51 ◼   ► it's that its own genre it's it is its

00:07:54 ◼   ► own specific thing so I had like for

00:07:58 ◼   ► example even though they aren't history

00:08:01 ◼   ► related specifically I guess in terms of

00:08:04 ◼   ► accuracy things like Jane Eyre the

00:08:09 ◼   ► Duchess Sense and Sensibility Pride and

00:08:11 ◼   ► Prejudice do you know those type of

00:08:14 ◼   ► period pieces period romances yeah I

00:08:17 ◼   ► guess that would be better period

00:08:19 ◼   ► romances for periods and people who like

00:08:22 ◼   ► periods that's yeah this is a movie that

00:08:27 ◼   ► when you when you put it on you you you

00:08:30 ◼   ► will not put it on if I'm with you

00:08:31 ◼   ► you'll put it on like either if you're

00:08:33 ◼   ► home alone or if if I'm gonna be like in

00:08:36 ◼   ► the office working all night I will come

00:08:39 ◼   ► out and I will catch you watching one of

00:08:41 ◼   ► these on you you almost always the

00:08:43 ◼   ► second you hear me approaching you just

00:08:45 ◼   ► pause it because a you don't want me to

00:08:48 ◼   ► make fun of it and be you don't want to

00:08:50 ◼   ► miss any of the dialogue as I go make

00:08:52 ◼   ► some noise so you always walk in as

00:08:54 ◼   ► like the characters have been not

00:08:56 ◼   ► together the entire movie and then a

00:08:58 ◼   ► second that they get together that's

00:09:00 ◼   ► when you walk in you're like what who's

00:09:02 ◼   ► stupid huh and it's the first time

00:09:06 ◼   ► they're kissing just stop yeah I'm very

00:09:09 ◼   ► good at ruining those for you I'm sorry

00:09:10 ◼   ► ruin them so much but anyway they are a

00:09:13 ◼   ► guilty pleasure I watch them when I'm in

00:09:16 ◼   ► the mood for just romantic and I don't

00:09:21 ◼   ► know just feel good but not not laughing

00:09:24 ◼   ► at anything you know even though I don't

00:09:27 ◼   ► even laugh with the romantic comedies

00:09:28 ◼   ► because they're not that funny they're

00:09:30 ◼   ► just gonna dumb yeah regular romantic

00:09:33 ◼   ► comedies are like a brain break and

00:09:34 ◼   ► these are like you know a little bit of

00:09:37 ◼   ► crack for the romantic soul kind of

00:09:40 ◼   ► thing so that's my number three all

00:13:16 ◼   ► heist movies is Ocean's eleven or heist

00:13:19 ◼   ► I'm just kidding may be nice

00:13:21 ◼   ► hi-yah Ocean's eleven and you know the

00:13:24 ◼   ► modern remake not the one like from the

00:13:25 ◼   ► 60s or whatever and for the record

00:13:27 ◼   ► oceans twelve and thirteen well don't

00:13:28 ◼   ► exist those yeah don't name bother those

00:13:31 ◼   ► exist even less than the network sequels

00:13:32 ◼   ► okay so let's talk about this together

00:13:34 ◼   ► since we both obviously love heist

00:13:36 ◼   ► movies I love heist movies because they

00:13:38 ◼   ► are so easy to watch but they're

00:13:40 ◼   ► incredibly entertaining and you get to

00:13:42 ◼   ► think and sometimes they surprise you

00:13:43 ◼   ► and I love any movie that people have to

00:13:46 ◼   ► synchronize their watches to accomplish

00:13:48 ◼   ► something that's my favorite I love that

00:13:51 ◼   ► if it if people synchronize watches it's

00:13:53 ◼   ► a good movie I also like montages which

00:13:56 ◼   ► heist movies are usually full of

00:13:57 ◼   ► betterment montages in some sense

00:13:59 ◼   ► preparation montage yes recon montage

00:14:02 ◼   ► any type of time where they're learning

00:14:04 ◼   ► how to do something and they're getting

00:14:05 ◼   ► better at it

00:14:06 ◼   ► amazing yeah yeah betterment montages

00:14:09 ◼   ► anyway so I want to list a couple of the

00:14:10 ◼   ► my favorite yeah heist movies that I

00:14:14 ◼   ► would put in this category how to steal

00:14:17 ◼   ► a million Taking of Pelham one two three

00:14:19 ◼   ► that's a good one snack snack snatch

00:14:23 ◼   ► yeah and actually I put snatch on my

00:14:26 ◼   ► list as well if for the big heist movie

00:14:27 ◼   ► and I was torn because I put Lock Stock

00:14:29 ◼   ► and Two Smoking Barrels the other guy

00:14:31 ◼   ► Ritchie awesome movie of that type into

00:14:33 ◼   ► the comedies for smart people like

00:14:34 ◼   ► anteater akin Teeter yeah is that one

00:14:37 ◼   ► I've seen on both lists when I was

00:14:39 ◼   ► trying to do my research for oh yeah

00:14:40 ◼   ► okay what is what yeah I would say I

00:14:42 ◼   ► would say snatch is more of a heist

00:14:44 ◼   ► movie but as much they're also both very

00:14:46 ◼   ► funny and they're both comedies for

00:14:48 ◼   ► smart people for sure so it was hard it

00:14:50 ◼   ► was tough just put those up but yeah I'm

00:14:52 ◼   ► with you snatches a heist movie in

00:14:53 ◼   ► general the Thomas Crown Affair which is

00:14:55 ◼   ► very good heist the bank job the Italian

00:14:59 ◼   ► Job yep bank job Italian Job usual

00:15:01 ◼   ► suspects and the Newton boys which you

00:15:05 ◼   ► have not seen I watched that over at our

00:15:09 ◼   ► friend's house and it's very good you

00:15:11 ◼   ► would like it a lot and apparently it's

00:15:12 ◼   ► based on true story cool but yeah that's

00:15:15 ◼   ► just a little sprinkling of some

00:15:17 ◼   ► different heist movies throughout the

00:15:19 ◼   ► ages because I mean something like how

00:15:21 ◼   ► to steal a million and taking a Pelham

00:15:23 ◼   ► one two three are pretty older they're

00:15:26 ◼   ► older movies so and the taking a pelham

00:15:29 ◼   ► that I'm talking about is the original

00:15:30 ◼   ► one with um with George's dad in it

00:15:33 ◼   ► yes mr. Costanza yeah yeah I even saw

00:15:38 ◼   ► the modern one the old ones very good

00:15:40 ◼   ► though yeah I only recommend and this is

00:15:42 ◼   ► one of those armors to where you could

00:15:44 ◼   ► like there are a lot of good old heist

00:15:46 ◼   ► movies like a lot a lot of genres if you

00:15:49 ◼   ► if you dig back into the back catalogue

00:15:51 ◼   ► of like movies from like the you know

00:15:53 ◼   ► 30s through 80s or whatever a lot of

00:15:54 ◼   ► them are they don't hold up as well

00:15:56 ◼   ► mm-hmm but heist movies like there were

00:15:58 ◼   ► a lot of good heist movies from the past

00:15:59 ◼   ► yes there are a lot of historical heist

00:16:02 ◼   ► movies I mean but and it's also it's fun

00:16:04 ◼   ► because they it does ban a lot of

00:16:07 ◼   ► different things they're not all just

00:16:09 ◼   ► action movies I feel like some of them

00:16:12 ◼   ► are they could be a little bit more

00:16:14 ◼   ► funny and others are more serious with

00:16:17 ◼   ► stuff blowing up oh what some barefoot

00:16:20 ◼   ► blood parade what's accurate yeah yeah

00:16:24 ◼   ► that's a heist movie technically I mean

00:16:26 ◼   ► nothing really gets heisted well it's I

00:16:29 ◼   ► mean like a heist movies often have

00:16:31 ◼   ► really good and really big twists to

00:16:33 ◼   ► them and so that's like a lot of them

00:16:36 ◼   ► like they seem like they might be heist

00:16:37 ◼   ► movies but they're not alright so that

00:16:40 ◼   ► was number two for both of us right yeah

00:16:41 ◼   ► I'm pretty excited that we had the same

00:16:43 ◼   ► number four heist movies because we both

00:16:45 ◼   ► really like watching heist movies

00:16:46 ◼   ► together because they're also really

00:16:47 ◼   ► easy to watch yeah so number one but yet

00:16:50 ◼   ► I know I'm sorry good this was almost my

00:16:55 ◼   ► number one I'm surprised it was at the

00:16:57 ◼   ► last minute I changed it it was my

00:16:59 ◼   ► number one until the last minute so I

00:17:01 ◼   ► have a lot to say about heist movies I

00:17:02 ◼   ► think we should even have a top four

00:17:04 ◼   ► episode about just heist movies I could

00:17:08 ◼   ► be convinced of that

00:17:09 ◼   ► okay I have to watch a lot more of them

00:17:11 ◼   ► first I know me too but that could be

00:17:12 ◼   ► part of the fun right is watching even

00:17:14 ◼   ► more heist movies and then ranking them

00:17:16 ◼   ► I feel like one of this one of those

00:17:18 ◼   ► awesome things that like we explain to

00:17:20 ◼   ► our parents like so what do you do for a

00:17:21 ◼   ► living so well this week I had to watch

00:17:23 ◼   ► a bunch of heist movies so I could this

00:17:25 ◼   ► week in my opinion if I had to watch

00:17:26 ◼   ► crank like I did alright number ones

00:17:31 ◼   ► actually my number one includes crank in

00:17:35 ◼   ► its category problem yeah my number one

00:17:43 ◼   ► top four movie genre my number one

00:17:45 ◼   ► is action in a variety of fast vehicles

00:17:48 ◼   ► so this would action in a variety of

00:18:01 ◼   ► fast vehicle so this includes you

00:18:04 ◼   ► separate that for heist movies heist

00:18:07 ◼   ► movies sometimes include some action

00:18:09 ◼   ► from a variety of fast vehicles but it's

00:18:11 ◼   ► usually not until the very end and maybe

00:18:12 ◼   ► it you know but like I'm talking about

00:18:14 ◼   ► where that's where that's more

00:18:15 ◼   ► commonplace occurrence for the whole

00:18:16 ◼   ► movie so that this includes things like

00:18:17 ◼   ► of course James Bond movies are in this

00:18:20 ◼   ► category I would say that's pretty good

00:18:22 ◼   ► yeah right you know things like crank

00:18:25 ◼   ► the transporter series it's almost all

00:18:28 ◼   ► Jason Statham movies this category so

00:18:33 ◼   ► but it's broader than just didn't say

00:18:35 ◼   ► the movie yes which is its own category

00:18:37 ◼   ► that that would rank pretty hot is that

00:18:39 ◼   ► if I separate that out that would rank

00:18:40 ◼   ► pretty high so far my favorite part of

00:18:42 ◼   ► this episode are your movie genres so

00:18:47 ◼   ► number one for me action in a variety of

00:18:49 ◼   ► fast vehicles what is you can you name

00:18:52 ◼   ► any others well you do you want to

00:18:54 ◼   ► expand on your variety of fast vehicles

00:18:56 ◼   ► action movies like what are some of the

00:18:57 ◼   ► other ones you're thinking so besides

00:18:59 ◼   ► Jason Statham movies and James Bond

00:19:01 ◼   ► movie and James Bond movies so is that

00:19:02 ◼   ► all you're really thinking of basically

00:19:04 ◼   ► I mean I got my category there's like I

00:19:06 ◼   ► mean you know there are things like the

00:19:08 ◼   ► diehards really you that's a lot of it

00:19:09 ◼   ► you know it's a lot of action movies

00:19:11 ◼   ► following the diehards the Mission

00:19:13 ◼   ► Impossible is kind of do this you know

00:19:15 ◼   ► like a lot of things that try to be

00:19:16 ◼   ► James Bond basically like a lot of them

00:19:18 ◼   ► are in this category what about you

00:19:21 ◼   ► incredible ziz probably in this category

00:19:23 ◼   ► like what's the one where they have to

00:19:25 ◼   ► drive a lot and not stop speed atomic

00:19:34 ◼   ► train right it's a great Jean run okay

00:19:38 ◼   ► people if you haven't seen an atomic

00:19:40 ◼   ► train just go and after this podcast is

00:19:43 ◼   ► over yeah find it and watch it it is

00:19:46 ◼   ► just epic the only thing with atomic

00:19:49 ◼   ► train and it never stops it's an atomic

00:19:51 ◼   ► train the only thing with atomic

00:19:53 ◼   ► training speed is that really the

00:19:55 ◼   ► category is action in a variety of fast

00:19:58 ◼   ► vehicle

00:19:58 ◼   ► so ideally meet how Sandra Bullock in it

00:20:00 ◼   ► too so that's what she's not a fast

00:20:02 ◼   ► vehicle I there's only one fast vehicle

00:20:04 ◼   ► in that movie so like ideally and it's a

00:20:06 ◼   ► but you have I know it's that fast it's

00:20:12 ◼   ► like 55 right you know it's like you

00:20:16 ◼   ► must go the speed limit stop don't stop

00:20:22 ◼   ► driving don't stop drive anyway that's

00:20:25 ◼   ► my number one Oh

00:20:27 ◼   ► atomic train yeah I just want to talk to

00:20:31 ◼   ► everybody about atomic train okay my

00:20:34 ◼   ► number one is kind of your number four

00:20:37 ◼   ► but what what do you use for smart

00:20:39 ◼   ► people yes

00:20:40 ◼   ► comedy's are smart people but apparently

00:20:42 ◼   ► according to like IMDB and a whole bunch

00:20:44 ◼   ► of other like legit places that is

00:20:48 ◼   ► technically called dark comedies no I

00:20:51 ◼   ► think there's some overlap there I think

00:20:53 ◼   ► a lot of comedies for smart people are

00:20:54 ◼   ► dark comedies but I would not say that

00:20:56 ◼   ► those are 100% the same genre well okay

00:20:59 ◼   ► so here are some of the ones I listed

00:21:00 ◼   ► that are my favorite movies in this

00:21:03 ◼   ► genre and this is why it's my number one

00:21:05 ◼   ► so I married an axe murderer Fear and

00:21:07 ◼   ► Loathing in Las Vegas Little Miss

00:21:08 ◼   ► Sunshine Juneau Zombieland

00:21:11 ◼   ► office space Grosse Pointe blank Fight

00:21:13 ◼   ► Club election Being John Malkovich okay

00:21:16 ◼   ► I could see that those were all pretty

00:21:18 ◼   ► good picks yeah

00:21:19 ◼   ► these are ones that I found to have the

00:21:21 ◼   ► dark comedy genre I was trying to pick

00:21:23 ◼   ► about pick out like some of my movies

00:21:26 ◼   ► that are my favorite movies in

00:21:28 ◼   ► themselves and then find what that genre

00:21:31 ◼   ► would be and they all just kind of end

00:21:33 ◼   ► up being listed as dark comedies okay

00:21:36 ◼   ► because some of them and also what we

00:21:39 ◼   ► watch last night Big Short yeah that was

00:21:42 ◼   ► listed as a dark comedy

00:21:43 ◼   ► hmm so okay so comedies for smart people

00:21:48 ◼   ► slash dark comedies I think that they -

00:21:50 ◼   ► the big short is almost a make me angry

00:21:52 ◼   ► liberal documentary it is almost to make

00:21:54 ◼   ► you let's see it it was a good movie but

00:21:58 ◼   ► yeah whole bunch of those movies that's

00:22:02 ◼   ► what I like the best that's pretty

00:22:04 ◼   ► simple really I wish I had better names

00:22:07 ◼   ► like you did I'm jealous of your names

00:22:10 ◼   ► anyway some of the things that didn't

00:22:11 ◼   ► make the

00:22:12 ◼   ► for me we're like 90s teen movies yeah I

00:22:15 ◼   ► mean I like - I love those in the 90s

00:22:17 ◼   ► yeah what maintains watching them now

00:22:19 ◼   ► I'm like they don't really hold up for

00:22:24 ◼   ► adults to watch them now I kind of feel

00:22:26 ◼   ► like that I'm a little embarrassed

00:22:27 ◼   ► watching them cult classic movies which

00:22:30 ◼   ► are pretty good like movies from the 80s

00:22:31 ◼   ► and other cult classic movies I had

00:22:35 ◼   ► documentaries on mine and Sundance

00:22:36 ◼   ► movies - as I didn't make the cut but

00:22:39 ◼   ► genres I was thinking about mmm Judd

00:22:42 ◼   ► Apatow movies but again some of those

00:22:44 ◼   ► can be shoved into the dark comedy /

00:22:46 ◼   ► many of them really so yeah they're

00:22:49 ◼   ► pretty well covered yeah well anyway

00:22:51 ◼   ► this is a really good I think a great

00:22:54 ◼   ► first overview of the types of movies

00:22:56 ◼   ► that we like and I think it's pretty

00:22:58 ◼   ► nice that we like the same type of

00:22:59 ◼   ► movies besides maybe the end of my list

00:23:01 ◼   ► or the don't watch with Marco movies yes

00:23:03 ◼   ► yeah but in terms of all the movies you

00:23:06 ◼   ► like and my top movies we are one of the

00:23:09 ◼   ► same so I think that's good so I think

00:23:11 ◼   ► it's only right that we conclude this

00:23:13 ◼   ► evening by either watching they make me
