Blank Check with Griffin and David Podcast • Page 67

Intolerable Cruelty is an underrated gem. The Ladykillers is pretty rough, though.

 

griff is unreal in this ep but i blame jordan mostly for egging him on

 

the fran stuff mentioned from jordan in this ep is crazy work

 

Blankies subreddit has been all over Hoffman’s apparent Zionism. It’s not great.

 

wtf

 

He seems like a very not great guy

 

kinda hope they’ll say something about it

 

don't like this movie very much

 

Watched intolerable cruelty. There’s hints of a good movie in there but it doesn’t come together. Seems like Griffin and Sims loved it so it’ll be an interesting episode.

 

it's a fun movie but it doesn't feel like a Serious Film

 

Intolerable Cruelty was one of the pleasant surprises of this rewatch for me. I'd always kind of written it off as lesser Coens, which, in terms of a ranking, it probably still is. But I had a ton of fun with it. I really love what they unlock in Clooney.

 

Lol the Fixed episode. Spent some time explaining the context of Sony Pictures Animation making movies for streamers and Genndy's career, and then eventually give up and talk A LOT of fantastic four

 

Should I actually see the new Fantastic Four before I listen?

 

I didn't see it and what they talk about is more so how would they fix it structurally and tonally. I didn't feel spoiled but also I don't really care so your milage may vary.

But you absolutely do not need to watch Fixed to listen lol

 

Thanks, makes sense. I was not planning to watch Fixed haha

 

This is devastating news to read one hour into watching Fixed

 

fun episode that kinda washed my mouth clean of the bad taste from the main feed episode a bit

 

The Ladykillers isn’t good but I’d rewatch it over at least hudsucker and the man who wasn’t there.

 

intolerable cruelty was more fun than i remember

 

The Ladykillers always gets a few chuckles out of me at the end when everyone is getting tossed onto the barge.

 

Intolerably Cruelty was good, CZJ is ungodly attractive in it, very funny performances from really everyone

watching Ladykillers now (an hour ish in) and it’s really really bad

 

But what about everyone getting tossed onto the barge? That’s good

 

I don’t think so

 

A little interesting they did “accidentally shooting yourself” 2 movies in a row I guess

 

i can’t believe i’m gonna force myself to rewatch this shit
