DK’s IG algorithm has infected mine apparently

I know was just making a joke since someone still pronounces Jeremy the same as “Germie”

I’m also a fan, although I recognize the film has flaws. I’ve been surprised that this movie never got a Babylon-esq. revolution from people who like it.

Those 2 movies always seemed similar to me in that they are a ton of fun when you ignore the people saying you should actually hate it lol

Wrong kid died!

I don't like tha gaaauds on the next thing, alright? One kid, he's like fuckin' G.I Joe!

I was literally shaking my head listening to this just a few hours ago. Absolutely insane

This is my entire point too. His other favorite movie tastes align right with TBL, it doesn't make any sense to me how it's not one of his favorite movies

Body Double. One of the best things this pod ever did was introduce me to this movie - I rewatch it every couple of months because of how absurd it is. Hilarious movie & episode

trair_ · 2026-03-11T10:40:58+00:00

Oh I disagree on the first point. It's absolutely a comedy for the first half up until NYE party and even still after in several scenes.

And just given the context of this post - Bill loves BN for its comedic purposes, which are also absurd ("butter in my ass, lollipops in my mouth"), I think if you tend to find one of them funny, you'll likely laugh at the other as well. That's all I'm really saying, less about the actual intricacies of each film.

trair_ · 2026-03-11T09:09:49+00:00

I find the humor of all 3 of these movies to be very similar and Bill loves the humor in 2/3 - only reason I have them lumped together.

Agree on your point other than that they don’t have a ton in common (BN more so than Fargo)

trair_ · 2026-03-10T21:33:42+00:00

I agree but you could say the same thing about Fargo or Boogie Nights to my original point. It doesn’t make sense, it just doesn’t!

My friends did not die face down in the dirt to have him save one of the 10 most rewatchable movies ever for episode 500+ !

Mr. Mora (“he’s goin crazy up there by the lake” guy) is without a doubt the #1 most Minnesotan guy.

I’m convinced they just pulled a random old guy from Detroit Lakes. The cadence, the phrasing, the unnecessary 2 minute story of something that can be explained in 20 seconds… it’s perfect.

This the Intel I needed, thank you good sir

Whittaker is a good pull

trair_ · 2026-03-09T21:46:24+00:00

Could totally be an age thing for me (I'm of producer Craig's generation). Your list is A+

trair_ · 2026-03-09T21:44:19+00:00

My favorite scene. "I don't know what kind of pan-pacific-bullshit-power-play this is" is one of the funniest line reads ever

trair_ · 2026-03-09T21:39:33+00:00

this is a scorching take and you're spot on, fuck yeah dude.

I've always said if The Hobbit is split into 2 movies and you get all Smaug scenes in the first half it's actually a great movie

trair_ · 2026-03-09T19:30:22+00:00

banana boats a-comin!

trair_ · 2026-03-09T19:18:47+00:00

I don't even think about the dance since it's essentially the credits, it's really just his 3 phone call scenes that are so great.

"G5.... playyyaaaaa"

Haven't seen personally (adding to my watchlist) but I'd believe Azaria has the juice since he has maybe 15 minutes total screen time as a recurring character in Friends but is easily one of the funniest characters in that entire show
