Patreon Preview #323: IMDb(itch) V

So, I'm going to give you some movies, and then you guys are movies or TV shows.

It could be both.

And then you guys are going to try to guess the actor.

Whoever gets it first wins a very big cookie.

Shark Tail.

De Niro.

Is it De Niro?

It's De Niro.

Is it really?

What?

In my head, I'm like, I'm like, who is the funniest person you could pull from Shark Tale?

Robert De Niro is like a shark.

I think him and Martin Scorsese are sharks or something.

I can't believe you remember a single thing about

Shark Tale.

I've never seen it.

I just remember after it came out, I remember seeing

somebody post about it, and they mentioned De Niro, and I'm like, De Niro's in this?

And then I opened it up.

And him and Scorsese have cameos.

I know that Scott Auckerman helped write Shark Tale.

So that is the only lore about Shark Tale I know is that every once in a while it will come up on Comedy Bang Bang that he worked on Shark Tale.

I remember the son Car Wash was in that movie.

Not the Car Wash.

Okay, so you got it.

You absolutely got it.

That makes sense because, you know, they're undersea.

They're in the water.

But the component that I think I said, Scott Ackerman, that I heard in an episode of Freedom, is now for bonus points.

Can you tell me at IMDB, there's a known Ford box, and it is a box that usually has four movies in it or four titles that this actor is known for.

Can you tell me what you think the four movies that Robert Downey, Robert Downey Jr., that Robert Downey Jr.

is known for?

Number one with a bullet.

I mean, sorry, not number one.

The number one I think of because of UJPC has got to be Meet the Parents.

Interesting.

Uh-oh.

And then I'd say Goodfellas, and then I'd say Godfather 2, and then I would say Taxi Driver.

Addle.

Wait, you're blowing through all of them.

Well, hold on.

Regional.

Aaron, Aaron, you do your guesses.

You do your guesses.

I know how many Adle got right.

I was going to say

Gofellas,

Raging Bull.

Um.

Silver Lining's Playbook.

Mad Dog and Gloria.

Godfather.

No.

So what's fun about this known for thing is I have no idea how it picks what Robert De Niro is known for.

I also tried to do it the other way, Adel.

But this is not like a lit.

These are like, I would have to go and do like actual research for this, but I wanted to know like what were their top grossing films.

And like anyone who's ever been in a superhero movie, like a Marvel movie in the last 20 years or whatever, those are obviously like the top grossing ones or whatever.

It just hits blockbusters really big.

Crazy Driver.

I guess his biggest grossing is either Meet Their Parents or Analyze This.

It was.

It was the movie he did with Ann Hathaway where he played an old guy who's trying to go back to work.

Dirty Grandpa?

The intern?

The intern.

Dirty Grandpa.

Analyze.

The reason I'm saying this is not analyze this.

Meet the Fockers or Meet the Parents, I would say, is one of his most top-grossing movies.

I did look that up from Robinson Euro.

But Adel, you got one right.

And Aaron, you got one right.

Or I think maybe Erin got one right because she said one that Adel said.

But Taxi Driver and Raging Bull

are

two of his top four.

Any guesses as to what those other two are?

Taxi.

E-Driver, Raging Bull.

Good fellows.

Tasky's father.

Deer Hunter, mean Scottish.

Dear Hunters?

Dear Hunters one?

Yep.

Nice.

King of Comedy?

No.

Oh.

It's not Goodfellow.

Oh, you heard it?

1991?

91.

That's when Goodfellows came out, right?

Did Goodfellows come out in 91?

91 or 92.

This is directed by Scorsese.

Casino.

Cape.

Cape Fear.

Cape Fear.

Next one, Aaron.

I didn't know the.

I knew it was Cape Something.

Yeah.

What is that movie about?

It's a guy in prison who gets out and stalks a family or something.

Stocks a

family's daughter played by Juliet Lewis.

Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah, those are the four.

I don't know.

I mean, Taxi Driver and Raging Bull makes sense to me.

Cape Fear, I guess.

But I feel like the Deer Hunter,

well, you know, different structural.

I don't know.

Like, Goodfellas isn't on there, you know?

He's most.

Goodfellas not not on there, it's crazy for Godfather to Goodfellas

Taxi Driver and Raging Bull.

I would, I would, I would gander.

I think that's that's the better,

but that's not the way we play this game because the way that we play this game, no one knows how we play this game.

No one knows.

Now that we got De Niro, uh, we are going to De Niro's absolute first movie role that he ever did.

And again, I, that some of these are like made-for-TV movies, which I don't count.

Some of them are, it's unclear if it was a movie that had a studio release.

So, if I

if I don't get it exactly right, don't sue me if this is De Niro's absolute first one um but is the one that him playing bobby milk in mean streets

i don't think so let's see what would you know what year that is it's got to be mid 80s like 86 or something but i believe that was corsesi's first film and i know they knew each other they grew up together and bobby and robert de near was known as bobby milk because he was like had a pale complexion so i know he cast him as bobby milk

This movie that we're doing today came out in 1968.

Whoa.

I didn't realize.

Okay.

I guess that makes sense because if Godfather was early 70s, right?

Yeah, that doesn't make sense.

Yeah, I'm looking through that.

Would we know this movie?

No, this movie, I don't think so.

I will tell you the name of this movie.

This movie is called Greetings.

Does that ring any bells?

Absolutely not.

Season of Greetings.

This is a Robert De Niro movie.

that came out in 1968 and it's called greetings it's one of his first films

Are there any other people that you would know?

Not even a lot of people have like pictures here.

So

I'm thinking that it's not a lot of other people that you might know.

So, does anyone have a guess as to what?

Oh, and I can also, if you want, I can give you the tags because there are like

tags on

IMDb that it's tagged with.

So, these are maybe genres:

satire, comedy, and drama.

Whoa, what?

Huh?

It's called Greetings from 1968, Satire, Comedy, and Drama.

Satire, comedy, drama.

And I do have a fun piece of trivia, but I can't reveal it yet.

We'll have to reveal it when we move on to the next actor.

Okay.

I think Greetings is about two neighbors that are saying hello to each other in the morning, and it gets more and more passive-aggressive, and then it turns to aggression.

And it's sort of a black comedy where we see

what can happen between people who are like sort of living in close proximity proximity to each other and how it can boil over into murder.

Oh, I guess if it's a black comedy, there has to be some murder in it there.

Murder.

Aaron, I think you just perfectly described the summary for the John Belushi Dan Eckrid comedy, Neighbors.

Ah,

okay, so you're telling me I accidentally wrote Neighbors again.

That's fine.

I'm going to write it down.

This time it wasn't the Seth Rogen one, so you're fine.

All right.

That's fine, though.

You're getting better.

We're on the up and off.

You're at least writing worse neighbors.

I'm I'm going to say Greetings is about two

rival greeting card writers.

One works for Shoebox, one works for Hallmark.

That's better than mine.

And Aaron.

It is.

They keep kind of one-upping each other with like the hot new greeting card until they start to just like snap and the inside of the card is just like lambasting the other person.

Yeah.

So it just becomes like digs at the other person kind of thing.

This feels like it could very easily be sold to Netflix, a la the pop-tart movie.

Oh, yeah.

Where they're just like, hey, we, Hallmark gave us the rights to the brand.

Okay, I do want to see, I do want to see that

scene.

And the way that we're going to engage with this scene is it's going to be Adel, you, and Aaron, and it's going to be a series of letters, but they're greeting cards that you're like writing to each other.

So it's just going to be you opening the greeting card from your arrival and reading it.

Roses are red, violets are blue.

You stink.

I can smell you from over here.

Come on.

That's lazy.

That doesn't even rhyme.

Oh, hold on.

I have half a mind to send another one back.

You should.

You should absolutely send something back.

That's, I mean, you can't even put that on shelves, right?

Like, who's going to buy that?

No, that's terrible.

All right.

I'm going to send this back.

And this will show him.

I got a card from Grace.

Okay.

Let's see what we have here.

Grace from Hallmark?

Yeah, yeah, Mom.

It's Grace from Hallmark.

Let's see what she has to say.

Mashed potatoes almost done.

Oh, good, mom.

Good, good, good.

Yeah, I just heard the microwave ding.

Let's see here.

Happy birthday.

A little birdie told me you just turned 100.

Well, that's rude.

Let's open it up here.

I can't believe you're still alive, bitch.

You're like 100 or something.

How are you still alive?

Shouldn't your organs have failed by now?

Dot, dot, dot.

But happy birthday, regardless.

What the fuck?

What?

This is a greeting card like someone would put in a store?

Yeah, mom, I guess so.

but let me just grab one of my prototypes here and then put that in the mail out.

Big look.

Potatoes are too hot.

Yes, mother.

A mother is a friend.

A mother is a confidant.

A mother is your friend.

Sorry, I sent you that.

I wrote a little note for my mom to encourage her.

Can I get that back and then I can mail you like a shitty card or something?

Yeah, sure.

I just want to read the inside of this.

Yeah, I just love my mom so much.

But you'll never be a mom because no one will ever love you.

Oh, you got me.

You got me.

You got me, bitch.

See?

Wow.

You got me, bitch.

You got me, bitch.
