Hey everyone and welcome to the nerdy of north podcast. It's a nerdy podcast and it's hosted by Northern nerds. I am one of your hosts Sam. And I'm your host Paul and we are live honest, honest, honest, honest, love now.
Really? This is going out on Sunday, the 10th of December. Happy Sunday. Happy Sunday guys.
Happy Sunday. I hope you all enjoyed them, Sunda Roar, and Kristoff, Plimia Balls, you dirty bastard. Yes. So we are joined by two lovely ladies and Sam.
Sorry, I've been giving a shit tonight. You are on the finish of the ice, Mr. Sorry. We've joined with this lovely Sonya again, just as we said last week, this is Sonya's month.
She's on pretty much every week until she tells us to fuck off. I'm never leaving. We're never leaving. And we've got the return of the...
How do we describe Kelly? The magnificent. If we're going to put Kelly in a box, what kind of box will Kelly be? Don't put me in a box.
They can talk all of it. They can talk all of it. Yes. If you're a fan of the podcast or if you're a first-time listener, you're in for a trade pet.
Yes. Welcome to Kelly's world. Funny enough, I do think this might be the first episode where Kelly's been on where we're talking about movies, rather than music. Oh, no.
I know we've done the horror films. Horrifons and we've done the Freddy's. Freddy's. But this is like an old review.
But the Freddy one, that was interesting. Yes, the Freddy's. This is the first episode where you're not going to get taken down halfway through first-time videos. Yes, not that big.
Yes, not that big. He can remember that. Jesus Christ, when we're watching Freddy, you've got things and you've been taken down from live. Just because we're sure are too much of the movies.
Jesus. YouTube, you're a bell-end, but yeah. Keep us on right now, please. I love you.
Because we're live. We're live. This isn't free recording. Hello, chat.
If you're a waffler than a motorist, try it again. I can say. Hi, Ben. Yes.
So, Sammy, do you want to do your fun stuff? Are we doing the fun stuff? You can do all your fun stuff. I'll be meeting you.
I'll be meeting you. This is you're making a horror shit. Hey, how are you doing? I'm like, it's been watching.
Stuff? Honestly, man. Well, let's find some day, I'll be watching. The Princess Bro.
Yes, I've re-watched it. And be honest, there was a lot of the film I did forget, but we'll get into that in a bit. I'll tell you what I have been obsessed with. And it is Car Crash TV.
So it is up there with MoonShiners. The Squid Game's the challenge on Netflix. What a bunch of bell-ends of contestants that they've got on here. None of them have got redeeming feet.
They call these anything. I think there was only one guy and his mother that was canny, but again, without giving spoilers, I'm not going to say anything because people might not have watched it. But yeah, the contestants are such dicks. But yeah.
Does not matter. No, no, this is not the real way. This is the real version that was filled in the UK, where the high people all over the world come. So there's Americans, Australians, Irish, all over.
But it's filmed in the UK. And apparently the contestants are suing the show now because they kept them in substandard things and it was supposed to be called. A lot of them got hyped there. I think there's like, I think there's actually, I haven't watched it, but apparently there's something where they have to squat for X amount of time.
And in the show it's like 30 minutes, but they're coming forward and saying they had us there for six plus hours. So it's like not true to life what they're showing on the show. And people are saying this was like, if anything this was abuse, it was borderline torture. But the squid games people were killed.
So that kind of got off. Yeah, right. You know what? So I didn't die.
And you know what? In Fort Boyard, I think they used to get really hurt. Oh my God. Oh my God.
I'm going to let you message out. But this is, I think it might get fact checked. But this is the biggest prize money for any game show other than like the natural lottery because it's $4.5 million or something you can win. If you do win the contest, so make me squat for 30 minutes.
Yeah, give me squat. Yeah, give me squat. I'll do 6 hours. Hey, Fermia.
Fine. I'm D frost, it's all right. They do the actual things from the squid game. So there's red light, green light, there's marbles, there's the cookie challenge where you've got like with the needle.
So you've got all these weird people that's furiously licking the cookie. So you can tell who's there. Well, I was going to say, I was going to make the jokes and you can tell who's going down because of the way they're coming action. But some of them are useless and sloppy fuckers.
But yeah, they've just done, we watched last night when they're done the glass bridge. But instead of the glass break, it's like opens up in a drawbridge and the fall down. But they come up with a very clever way of doing it. But again, spoilers.
Yes, that's my interest in Shitty Watch there. Oh, well, I've obviously watched the movie that we're talking about this year. It's been done twice. Twice.
Nice. Yeah, there's a reason for it. And I've watched the first series of Invincible again. Because we didn't realize that it was such a long time ago that the first series came out.
I was like, I generally can't remember what. And I know I've got a bad memory, but I generally can't remember what happened. So we watched the first season and we watched halfway to the second one. And it is sort of a good.
It is just a brilliant watch, the action's brilliant. And it's like, I'm scared sick of me because I'm always trying to find out who the voice actor is. I do that. I'm convinced everyone's David Tennant.
So I realized that he's got about a million different voices as well. Because when you hear his normal voice, he's very Scottish. And then when he speaks like Dr. Who David Tennant, he's very not Scottish.
But yeah. Yeah. And he was also in a soccer as well. So I'm like convinced he's voice acts everyone now.
And so yeah, we just be much invincible. Every view's been much of anything interesting other than the topic at hand. Pint dry. Oh, yes, I can see you posted about your Pint.
Because you're being panted. Kelly is full of middle-edge now. I don't know why I'm paying for Christmas. The tree isn't fucking off.
I'm as festive as a group here right now. I'm like, are we calling you a Rubik Kelly now? The kids are like, I've got two kids. One that's five.
One that's nearly a year. And I'm sure the social services have got to come round. We've taken away because I have got to be fucking tree up. Have you ever heard of the first in November when you've got kids that like what the fuck's going on?
Well, to be honest, I hope people say why don't we have like Elph on the shelf? And I was like, we have dogs and they eat elves because they take a picture. No, that's good. That's fast.
But to be fair though, Kelly wants to stand up and show what she's wearing. She's more like Christmas tree. Look at the dungarees, the dungarees of life where she is indestructible now. I'm so sure.
And he said, Mommy, why are you covered in remote control? I'm so glad I'm on the phone. You are such a 90s kid, it just makes my heart so big. I love it.
I love it. But yeah, a nature, he's got an advent calendar, so we're not that huge. Oh, yeah, they just got one thing. They said, the abuse stops there and it's fine.
Just in case anyone from social services watching this, Kelly loves her children. She looks at them really well. Please don't take them away. Christmas tree trees and shit, just best of it.
I'm really excited for this Christmas because I actually had a drink because last Christmas I was heavily pregnant with Sterling. So I'm going to be off my chops and I'm going to enjoy every second of it. Well, we'll enjoy every second of it for you as well, Kelly, because I'm sure we'll get the messages on the video. Yeah, absolutely.
With an echo and everything, but yeah. See, there's a throwback for any of the old listeners that are listening now. Son, you have to be watching anything other than the Princess Bride? Yeah, I mean, I've only watched it at the ones, but it's actually based on not the last podcast, but the podcast before when me and Sammy were talking about Midnight Mass, it just really made us want to watch it again for the third time.
So I was like, you know what I'm going to do? So we watched all the house of Russia and I was like, right, Midnight Mass it is. And we're, I'd say three quarters of the way through, trying to take it very slow because the first two times I've been shit. Yeah.
So I was like, I'm taking this slow and I'm going to digest every episode and really let the emotions take over my soul. So can I ask a question then? Because I think, could you said you watched House of Russia, then Midnight Mass again? Yes.
Which do you prefer? For me, right? As much as some of his other works are, like from a horror perspective, they're better. I think the writing in Midnight Mass is perfection.
Like I have never felt so deeply before. So for me, that's the best show, like because it's so emotional. It's fantastic. And I love the concept of religion as horror.
Like it's such a good, good point. It just goes so hand in hand as well. I absolutely love, I love Midnight Mass. And I really did love House of Russia was so fucking clever.
But my favorite of all of his work is always going to be House of Hornet Hill. Oh, the Houghton of Hill, how sorry. Yeah, that's very different from the same. I absolutely love that.
Probably more through the aesthetics of it. The story of the thing, Midnight Mass has the best writing. The best. I agree.
I think the writing is better in Midnight Mass. But I do think House of Russia has the better ending. Oh, House of Russia. Don't get me wrong when I say I love Midnight Mass the most.
I don't mean that the others aren't as good as me. It's like, if they're top tier, the Midnight Mass is just a little bit above that. I thought House of Russia was superb. I absolutely loved it.
And I love the speculation of like who the female character is. Like, is she like an ancient god? Is she spirit? Like, it's just fascinating.
No, definitely. I think that will be a subject that we will come to round about Halloween next year. So, Michael, I'm not going to go. Michael, I'm not going to go.
Yeah, just a couple of minutes. I'll just say like, see, at the fall of Halloween, House of Hornet Hill, Blyton, Houghton of Hill, sorry, Blyton of and then Midnight Mass and then House of Russia. What about Earth? You can do it.
I'll give this to the mirror from Oculus in every single one of his works. Like, if you watch the show is back, it's in all of them. Yes. I'll change the topic today.
I'll try again. First time we've had a take over that wasn't us, but yeah. We're not about the coonies either, but yeah, sorry. So, Sammy, do you want to do your disclaimer?
Yes, and then we'll get on with it. So, everything discussed in today's episode is our opinions and our opinions alone. If you'd like to discuss anything from today's episode, please come and join us in the Facebook group, the comments section or the Discord. I just had my brain went funny.
And we can have an open discussion. What we won't have is anyone coming for us and telling us our opinions are wrong. We can all the people who did it were really abandoned. So, let's keep it fun.
Keep it kind. Keep the toxic behaviour out of Nerdism. Well said. And just to see a few things that we've hit as well this week, the Facebook peer just hit 17,000 followers.
Oh, keep on. 17,000. Just hit that. We are only a few hundred off 10,000 in the Facebook group.
We are getting closer to 4,000 followers on Instagram. Instagram's a little bit hard to get followers because you need tits and ass and I haven't got them. Sorry. I want to available.
The Nerdio Knort, which I can't look at soon. Twitter is, or X, whether it's called is creeping towards 1000 followers now. I don't know about the TikTok or whatever that goes here. As we found out last episode, I am not a TikTok person.
So, yes. It's got a hundred. It's got a hundred, but it's got the views on every video is like over 1000. So, like, it's really good.
And the views agree it's just the followers are just because I'm not really that interactive. So, you only TikTok that or is the one out of Figgim Pretend Wars? I give brass guns? No, no, no, no, no.
I'm just like, TikTok. What you talk about? You need a windum up to a dinner go up. Yes.
Fun enough, we will be talking about return to us in a future episode coming soon. Yes. So, this week's episode is a very special movie. A cult movie from 1987 that has a huge following, especially, I would say in the last 10 years, that it has picked up a lot of steam and a lot of people do talk about it in very high regard.
I guess it's not for everyone's tears because the weird is filmed and the aesthetics and everything. It's very strange, shall we say, to be polite? That's such a nice way of saying it. Because it was an American budget movie that was shot in America, but it's shot like a British Monty Python movie in my, as Kelly pointed out in the text message, she sent it's rent.
Is this a fucking Monty Python movie? And I said, spoilers. I was like, what the fuck am I watching? What's like, the start of the movie is brilliant because it basically sets you on a path that you don't expect.
Basically, you've got Fred Savage from the Wonder Years and Colombo, who are not. Colombo, I was fucking buzzing when I saw him. I was like, oh my God, he's a grandad. Yeah, but they're not credited with names.
I think it's just grandson and grandad in the film as else. So you're like, oh, great. We're going to have some kind of like big budget, American blockbuster, all them different things. And then it kind of goes in the realms of red dwarf budget, shall we say?
I'll take all of that. I did not expect this tonight. I really thought this was one of Kelly's favorite films. Should I just like set the scene, right?
This is one of the films that I really should have fucking say. But it's a film that is somehow evaded me. I don't know if it was hiding under the stairs, like I'm hiding under the stairs right now. I don't know if it was just in a box that was sealed and placed in cement and then put in the garden.
A time capsule. Yeah, yeah. And I know it existed. I'm not like, oh, Princess Bride.
What is this? But I recognize, you know, like the name of, you know, I am a tire. You can make up. That's Princess Bride or never watched it.
So I feel quite well. I thought I felt quite privileged to have been able to watch it in my old age, 36 years after it was released. But to be honest, maybe not. So you went filming the Princess Bride, shall we say, Kelly?
Do you know what? I don't know what I'm feeling. Right? So processing the aspects and the tones and themes of the movie.
I don't know what I thought I watched, but I watched something. And that's what we're going to discuss. So, the way I would probably describe it, because if you think of it as it is in the box, the movie itself doesn't make any sense. But if you think about the way it starts, it's a grandfather that is trying to get his son, his grandson into the world of fantasy imagination and all books and just get lost in the imagination.
So, and if you remember as well, if it's your grandfather, it's not going to tell you a story like, let's say the never ended story. He's not going to go that dark. So it's going to be light and fluffy, which this movie is certainly is about good versus evil. The hero gets a girl and not all the bad guys are real bad guys.
That's probably the best description I can give. But if you watch it from, if you cut out the first 10 minutes where you get the introduction, it's a very confusing mess. It's very much just like a Monty Python sketch, where the actors and actresses are just doing what they want and having as much fun as possible without going like with rude jokes and. I honestly think Rob Reiner actually got really pissed at a party with all these fucking famous people and said, I think they're doing this film.
I feel like it's meant to be a satire of fairytales and I feel like that's missed. I think people take it too seriously. As a fantasy tale, it's not good. It's meant to be taken the same way you would take this as a spinal tap.
It's meant to be a mockery of fairytales. And I think it does that really well. Yeah, exactly. And also a reference final tap as well.
He does the whole torture scene and he's like, I'll knock it down to the lowest. So he does actually reference final tap, but I am totally the same as Kelly. I only watched this on Tuesday and I did mention I watched it twice. I believe he's a bit like it's like 36 years old and it's like, yeah, it's mud.
But I know a lot of my friends, this is like one of their favorite films of like all time. And I'm like, so I know all the references and but yeah, watch it twice because I fell asleep. The first watching and looking well instead of trying to find where I was, I was like, I'll just put on a game. And so I put it on a game and what I realized, I really didn't fall this like when the end happened, I was like, oh, I didn't actually fall asleep and miss anything.
So it's all right. But yeah, I got all the right. All the references came up and I totally got it. But I think this is something that I should have it's like Gremlins.
I'll never get your love for Gremlins. I didn't watch it as it is. I only watched it a few years ago. And so I don't want to get that kind of forward.
I think this is exactly the same. If I watched it back then, I probably would feel a lot different, but I've got to say, it does have some really fucking funny bits in. Oh, yes. Look at the castle.
Like if you think of the castle. But it wasn't. That's what completely threw us. But as you said, like Andre the Giant who was absolutely fantastic.
And I'm really fucking random. I'll try and see a particularly the guy from from from from from from London, which just just and get the person that you'd recognize in every film, but you can never name him Wallace Sean. Yeah, yeah. He's the guy that was the guy who was the guy called who played the evil Prince Chris, sorry, Don.
Sorry, Don. Sorry. Sorry. He was a little bit horror.
And because, yeah, I wasn't I was looking through the castle and I was like, what? That's a guy from Frank night. It's also fucking Jack Stillenton. Oh, yes.
Yes. Oh, my God. He was a little bit horror. I even can picture where he's table was because he was on a break.
I think you're a master the whole time as well. Yeah, a lot of people were upset about that. They actually refunded the ford was the love and horror announced that said, anyone who got the photographs from take with him, we went to all before hand. That he was going to be in system wearing a mask.
So if anyone wants a refund, we will have to refund. That's good on them. That's really good for them because I think that's not a photo. That could be anyone.
I just a mask or like a full face mask like a claver. It was just like a like a Corvid mask type thing. But still if you're paying for like a photo opportunity with someone and they get pictured friends, if you don't really want to say it. Oh, look, I fucked off.
No, I'm really excited to ask. Was it? It was something you had to say. I'm going to say it's side gig that day.
I know that's what someone she was upset about. It's like that was on the pick. That's actually really wanted to see. But like for the event and everything, I know we're going back next year, like the around that show, like probably the second best convention.
I would say it's run like Sunnecon is always the top tier. I've never seen anything run as well as Sunnecon in my life. Convention size. No, unless you're good when you're trying to put people's eyes out.
Yeah, there's that. We didn't have nothing to do with that. Yeah, like your eyes. I'm going to take them out.
Yes, he's Jack Skeleton as well, which like blew me fucking mind. And I couldn't hear it though. Yes, I couldn't hear Jack Skeleton than his voice. But as you said, the cast is iconic.
It's got like the who's who of I get his talent from America and British comedy as well. Mel Smith, like the jokes were subtle and well done. I say so the first bit when he talks about really weird voice and he coughs and good. That's all crock me up.
That is Jesus. I was like, I'll be more crazy person. And he's like, I don't know. But it had very tense and very 80s British comedy in there.
I think that's probably why not in the British Princess Bride isn't big in America, but I think it was bigger in the UK than it was in America when it initially was released as well type things. But let's come back to the story then. So the initial story, the plot is like after the. Go on.
Explain it. I'll do better than I did on the floor. I got covered this time. So basically, as I said at the start, but like this, this grandson is not very well.
So the grandfather is coming over to making feel better to tell him a nice story and the story is going to tell him is the Princess Bride. Grandson's all going to stop you here for a second. I think it's going to stop you here for a second. Just one second.
One second. Red Man. Didn't kick off at your granddad's. Your granddad's Colombo.
Don't be dick. Appreciate that your dad's like your granddad is telling you this fucking story when you're ill. You want to be a douche? And it could be sold and murdered murders.
It could be fixed. It's crimes. It took time out of these busy fucking repertoire. And just just, yeah, if my granddad was Colombo, I'd be fucking buzzing.
Yeah, but we didn't have a cigar door. I was like, that was me only complimented. He's getting a book. A book.
I was like, I was under the book. Behind me. Yeah. I'm still trying to keep it together.
I was trying to keep it together. I was trying to keep it together. I was trying to keep it together. And we kept one saying, watching it.
Hason was playing the way he's managing. Cause he was, I Haj backstory watched it before. And I was just like, right. I had make fucking wiggings.
Mm hmm. And then I was just on the first thing I was just like, dude, do, do, do, have respect? It's Colombo. T Gain hall.
Just knock it on the head. Bring it in. I would've killed him. Crazy don't.
Kill them. provinces. Right. Between phase and a whole history of life asail, allegedly, deliberately, allegedly.
Yes. Continue. What would you do with a second? And now June.
Just, even with... I'm sorry. But yes. I think I'm lying by the way.
Just want to know about that. Um, yes. Sorry. Can we tell us his story?
Tell us his story. Tell us your story. So we're going to the story. It's all about, um, as he tells him, it's about fencing, sword fights, pirates, giants.
So he's getting the excitement of the kid. And because what kids do, it makes stories about that. And he doesn't want to love it. He doesn't want to love it.
He doesn't want to love it. He doesn't want to love it. So it starts out really nicely. Like I say, the beautiful princess falls in love with a stable boy, even though they're trying to tend to don't love each other.
And it's really awkward and very much like a relationship would be an empty as well. I was like, I'm going to ignore you. That means I love you. Um, little Wesley, um, being on the thing.
And I love that bit because it's breaking the class system. It's like saying, oh, there's a stable boy in the princess. They can't be together. They mustn't be together.
No, no, they can be together because of love. So... Oh, the cop was a fucking bitch. And he was just as you wish, as you wish.
And you know what? Hey, Carrie, he was a sex bastard. Oh, he was. Yeah, he was.
Yeah, he was. I was sitting there guard. But like, you know what? It's the eyes.
It's his eyes. Beautiful. But now I just wish he was going on. And he was just like, he got a get lover.
And I was just like, put a cop man. You were fucking weird. You were fucking weird. You were just like beautiful.
So maybe this might have, like, clouded your judgment towards me because you wanted Wesley for yourself. No, you're all right. You're all right. You're all right.
I can lost. I can lost. No, it was just like, oh, I'm going to knock her out. But yeah.
And then I can put a cop. I'm not going to start thinking again. But yeah. So yes.
So that's the moment that I say the love that you have together. And he goes off and is pronounced dead. He's disappeared for years. And then, yes.
And then the Prince Humber Dick. What a name. What a name. I have an end of birth.
I can't get in far quite vibes from Shrek. Yeah. Totally. So many men syndrome.
Yes. So basically with the being the world and deers and men ruling over women, they can choose the brides and the women don't get to see it. All that feminine shit was thrown out the window apparently in this movie. So yes.
Problematic in a little bit. Yes. We'll come back to it. It's a fantasy story.
It's a fantasy story. It's a deep. We can make it as deep as we want. Go deep.
Oh, deep as a puddle. Yes. And then the Princess gets kidnapped by three strange humans. Shall we see it?
And then we are interested. Don't look like they deserve to be together. They're like, really, they're like, saw mismatching. Obviously Andre the giant's one off.
He's just it. He's kind of acts for fucking shit. Well, that's true. I've seen what he's fighting with Kerry and like, because Kerry's a tall dude and you just see like the height difference.
It's just like, it's just like, so funny. I read a few little facts about Andre the giant in this movie because I was really interested as to why him. Yeah. Rob Ryaner fucking loves him.
Yeah. And it was a nor brainer. He was going to be in this movie. But he has the movement.
They just could never understand what he was seeing. Yeah. If you know what it is. Rob Reiner had him read every single word from a piece of paper.
But you could then mush it together. It could be a sentence. So you can actually understand what he's saying. The giant is doing is just like kind of lifting into his words.
But he is him talking. It's just fascinating. It's so interesting. Yeah, they had to broke it down into like, so I is he she and then they just kind of mushed it together just ever so slightly so they could make like a coherent sentence to where everyone could understand because he was not going to be in this movie.
They were either going to have a mute or they were going to do it. They were going to try this method. And he also, right? Robin Wright used to get very cold because obviously it's a lot of outdoor shots being done and to get warm, he just used to put his hand on top of a head.
Yeah. Yeah. And if he's that big, it just kept her head nice and warm. We said kept her nice and warm.
He was the same and ready there. He said he was the nicest person to ever work with. The man could pull away his alcohol. Like we all went out for meals and he was just like he was six bottles in as they were finishing a glass.
Yeah. He said he was lovely. Did you see the fact about the um, did you hear about the fart? Or did you read about the fart?
No. That's the best fact about the best bit of trivia. So on the set of the Princess Bride, one day while we're filming, he let out a 16 second fart. Fuck that.
And it brought this high production of a complete standstill. And then Rob Reiner was like, are you okay, Andrew? And his response was, I am now boss. Shannobot comes out.
The nicest thing about reading stuff on this movie was, and it's really, there's not a lot to read about it. For one reason, everyone got on. Yeah. There was no drama.
There was no drama on this movie. Everyone got on with each other. There's no backstabbing. There's no, you don't know what I mean.
It was one movie that like, they just fucking love doing. No, definitely. I know like, I spent a lot of the time talking about Andrea, the giant in the movie and like outside of the movie as well. Cause everyone knows like, they were big wrestling fans as well.
He was massive in the wrestling world. Like, not just because it was sized, just because what you could do and what he did for the business as well. But I love the stories you hear about. Like, like, if you pissed him off, it was a very different story.
Like, the old, the warrior, when he was in WWE, he worked a few, what they call house shows, where it's not live TV, kind of practicing for the men of events. So they get like the matches down and they get the timing right. And each time the old memorial would just be hit, Andrea, the giant full force with a clothesline. And Andrea would say, you got to slow down.
You're hitting this too hard. I'm not going to be able to keep working. It hit this hard. And he would go, yeah, yeah, next night, even do the exact same thing.
So the point was, went right. That's going to stop now. So he puts everything, like everything you can think of, disgusting wise in his armpit. Cause he's on pit, could he engulf a human head.
So he got the old, he got the old memorial. And he put his head in the armpit for, I think it was only for like 10, 15 seconds, but almost suffocated him until he was dead. Because it basically just enclosed his head in this stench that was he saying. And he pulled him to a sign and said, if you keep hitting this, I'm going to do this every night, but I'm going to keep you there longer.
So the old memorial learned his lesson and didn't hit him. What did he put these armpit? He's like, oh, it's stinky. Like, oh, if it was restless, there would have been facies and stuff like that.
The wrestlers at the time, like, let's be honest, they were classed as carnie folk. So they weren't scared of, yeah, so they would, like, I think there's a big rig where all in heart shit in one of the person's shoes. Like, um, so actually in the middle of dressing room, shouting someone's shoe. So when they put your shoe on, it's just all pissing themselves laughing because it's like, pulling the shoe.
I'm ever seen some you break like this. Oh, no. We did it always on the end of the search. But when you talk about his drink and habits, he was always renowned for drinking because I am, like, well, we know some big drinkers, but his glass of wine was a bottle of wine.
Yeah. So he would go through like a creative wine and he would have drink contests with other people as well, like actors as well. Like, I think on Corinne and the Barrean, you had a drink contest with all like the big tough guys and stuff. And within a couple of hours, all of them would like collapse passed out and he was just sitting there sitting there sitting there, bottle of wine, laughing, he said off because he was always jolly.
He was like, he was like, that sounds really cheesy, but he was like jolly, jolly, jolly, jolly, he was like, but he always used to call people boss. That was always, he was like, okay, boss. That was always easy. Sorry.
I was saying he was just a very gentle and nice guy when it comes to it. But yeah. Yeah, that's what that's what was just echoed throughout, like, especially from like Rob Reiner. When he said like this man's not stupid either.
He is so fucking intelligent. It's just on from camera to mic to studio, you know, editing wise, you just couldn't make up what he was saying. That was the only thing like they said he could move. He took good direction.
They didn't have to repeat themselves twice. They just couldn't fucking understand them. It's hard always because it once he's got joined and I can say with the giant, like the condition he had his guns and his teeth were like filled his mouth. So, as well.
Like, I was like a French, French, Canadian. I can never get like, like, remember, he always always have like a bit of a French accent as well. So that's why you just never do promos in WWE or WWE in the in the D is because he used to always have trouble like not because he knew what to say, but he couldn't get the words out type thing. But he could tell he was having so much fun on the set as well.
And as Sonia said, when you carry when Carrie, I was just standing next to me. He looks like Tony, I know, there's a very famous photo on the set of Conan the barbarian where it's got Andre the Giants and I think another basketball. I think it's a drill, Jibar type thing standing next to Arnold Schwarzenegger and Arnold Schwarzenegger looks like the Danny DeVito. In the picture.
I can twin. Yeah, I can twin. So if you look at it, I'll try and find that photo and put it on the Facebook group. It's always funny because Arnie just looks tiny compared to these men.
And even like, he's acting in this because it is a very cheesy tongue in the tongue and cheek. Not to be taken to seriously, but like, these little fights scene where he's throwing rocks up. What we don't know is Wesley at the time. It was a what's the pirate.
What's he called now? Robert. Robert. Robert.
How the pirate. The red pirate. Yes. And I love all the interactions will make the first one you get is with actually when we find like my favorite character in the whole thing, Ignito.
It can't even say it now. My name is Ignito. I'm a man. You kill my father.
I'm a dead dad. That interaction that fights even though it's hilarious for the wrong reasons because when they're doing the somersaults and flying, you can actually see the crash mats that they're hitting as well. And there's things flying up when you think, oh, I feel like I could have took that one post, but it adds to like how bad this movie is. And I'm in the climb up the mountain face.
I know I'm jumping all over. Just things I love about the movie is when like all of them are on Andre the Giants back. And he's going up the rope and it's like, hey, this is nothing. It's like fuck off.
You could have done that. You best. It's like, I'm just going up this little boat and it's like, it's absolutely hilarious. I have actually literally got me north.
How can he is Andre the giant? He's just so kind of the bit where he goes like the doggy panel. I was like, what the fuck? At the end with the horses, he's like, I got four horses.
He's like, you're covered. I'm like, how many? He catches up when she jumps out the window as well. He's like, he's like, hey.
I want that fuck. I just lost. The funniest bit for me. And I mean, like literally had me crossing my legs because I needed a gort that lapping was when the interaction between put a cup and Wesley when he's a pirate on top of the hill.
And she pushes him down the hill. And she then follows him afterwards. And at one time she gets to the bottom of the hill. She then knows it's Wesley.
No, she knew what that she said as you wish. And that's why she jumps down. I heard that. It wouldn't have been as funny.
But I was like, how the fuck is she from going from there to there? Tell you what, they take some fucking tumbles as well. That one. They should have had broken limbs, broken neckes and spiders and shit.
What is she just rolling down? I was just like, how is this fucking here? Is the noise as the mic as the corner. Yeah.
I know that's clearly like recorded after the fact as well because it's so crisp. That didn't feel very nice. Yes. We are.
But like all the different interactions in the movie is just so funny. Wallace Sean is like so skeisy and not I wouldn't call sinister but it's got that the hate ability factor. Not the lie ability factor, but the hate ability factor that you think, oh, I'm glad he didn't, he got out, out, out done by Wesley and his tricks and stuff. I love that scene so much.
It's a game away. It's just like the nonchalant and he's just, no, actually I've spent the last five years developing an intolerance. I watched that clip earlier. I was like, why did he do that in case he was ever in this.
Like, why else would you do that? It's like, like thinking about all the different possibilities. It's like, well, I might be in a situation once where I need to drink some wine against a completely clever person and it will work as a trip to get my true love back. Yes, that's the reason I'll do this.
Yeah, that's definitely going to happen one day. Carriels did actually surprise Rob Reiner. The scene with the quicksand. Let's talk about the quicksand as well.
So when she falls into the quicksand, Carriels starts looking around to find something to jump down with. Rob Reiner had no fucking idea that that's what he was going to do. Right. It wasn't in the script.
He just did it. So how was he meant to get around? Pop-nose. It was the jump the jump was very much improvised because Rob Reiner just kept the camera rolling.
The fucking was doing. Let's talk about the quicksand as well because there's two movies and the 80s movies as well that give me fear for quicksand. So there was this one. And the never-ending story.
The fucking jerry on Dark Man. I was never even sorry for getting the fucking bin. I was never even sorry for getting the fucking bin. I was never sorry for getting the fucking bin.
After watching these movies as well, did anyone else have a fear of quicksand? I think there was going to be a bigger problem in their life as well. Yeah, I've only found my entire life preparing. I was never having to say I was too busy preparing for two fucking statues.
I was going to fucking shoot for me. That was what I was preparing for. Quicksand was just dropping off the ocean. Quicksand.
So if any of you has watched the criminal program, something mysterious criminal mysterious. It was on Netflix re-did it, revamped it recently. Oh, on Solve Mysteries. Yes, I heard.
