Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:15):
So what do you remember most about nineteen eighty.

Speaker 2 (00:19):
Six being two years old?

Speaker 1 (00:22):
Uh?

Speaker 3 (00:23):
Huh, what do you remember most about eighty six? Walk
me through your experience in the middle eighties.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
In the yeah, the mid eighties.

Speaker 1 (00:31):
You were born in eighty four.

Speaker 2 (00:33):
Yeah, oh, sorry old.

Speaker 1 (00:37):
I just got so old, instantly got so old.

Speaker 2 (00:41):
Yeah, I don't. I mean I think I was. I
don't really were walking walk in. I'm sure as jam in,
learning the little bit of dance here and there too.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
You were dancing already at two.

Speaker 3 (00:53):
Oh.

Speaker 4 (00:54):
I've always loved music, so I've always not been able
to help myself, but like Baptist songs, and you know.

Speaker 2 (01:01):
I just was always really like I gravitated towards it
a lot.

Speaker 1 (01:05):
Interesting.

Speaker 4 (01:06):
Yeah, what do you remember about eighty six?

Speaker 1 (01:11):
I was ten years old in eighty six. I remember
a lot. I was.

Speaker 3 (01:15):
Uh, that's when I started professionally acting. I was in
my first stage play and with Mary McDonald and David
Suthen in nineteen eighty six at.

Speaker 1 (01:21):
A Dollar's House.

Speaker 3 (01:22):
Oh that's where you know. My career started in eighty six.
So eighty six was a big year for me. I
think by ten I was I had my first little
dirt bike motorcycle. So I started riding around the streets
and my dirt bike and it was a laser tag
was big.

Speaker 2 (01:38):
Wait did you wear safety gear?

Speaker 1 (01:41):
Of course? Oh yeah, yeah, oh you did.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (01:43):
If my parents are attorneys, they weren't going to let
me anywhere unless I was covered head to toe.

Speaker 4 (01:46):
I always just think about now, even just we're getting
you know, Monroe her first tricycle or whatever, bicycle and
scooter and stuff, and you go on Amazon, the only
place to get stuff like that anymore this point, and
there's a whole package.

Speaker 2 (02:02):
You don't just get a helmet.

Speaker 4 (02:03):
It's risk guards, elbow guard's, knee pads. I'm basically putting
it out there.

Speaker 2 (02:09):
In a bubble wrap.

Speaker 4 (02:10):
And it's like, I can't imagine that's how it was
back in the day. I don't remember having all of
that when I was rollerblading for the first time or
bicycling regular bicycle.

Speaker 3 (02:21):
The idea of wearing a helmet in the eighties when
you just were on your bike was insane. You'd fall,
you'd hit your head, you'd forget that day and you'd
start again the next day.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
That's that's what happened. It's better Now with.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
That say yes, absolutely, absolutely.

Speaker 3 (02:35):
Oh, welcome back to Magical Rewind, the show that makes
you want to grab your friends, your pjs, and your
popcorn and go back to a time when all the
houses were smart, the waves, Tsunamis and the high School's musical.

Speaker 1 (02:45):
I'm Wilford Del.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
And I'm Sabrina Bryan, and we are talking.

Speaker 3 (02:48):
About nineteen eighty six for a very good reason. It's
because it's time to wrangle the kids and save the orphanage.
Because this week we're traveling back to that wonderful year
of nineteen eighty six with the Wonderful World of Disney
movie The Leftovers. Now, it's a film from Disney's past
that has been completely and totally destroyed in Google searches
by the much more recent HBO show from Damon Lindelof.

(03:09):
It originally aired on Sunday Night on ABC, and it
would eventually replay ten times on the Disney Channel in
nineteen ninety, which gave it a bit of a second life.
It debuted on November sixteenth, nineteen eighty six, and to
get ahead of ourselves a little bit here, it stars singer,
songwriter and superstar of the time, John Denver, who is
one of the best selling artists of the seventies. He

(03:31):
sold over thirty three million records Wow and Yeah. And
he started his acting during the explosion of his career,
breaking out in the nineteen seventy seven movie Blockbuster Movie,
great film, George Burns' comedy Oh God, which then had
a great sequel, Oh God, You Devil. But then he
took almost ten years off from TV and movies, and

(03:52):
it was actually this movie, The Leftovers, that brought him
back to acting. And not only did it mark the
return of the musical phenomenon, it was early in the
careers of so many actors.

Speaker 4 (04:03):
This was so Probably my favorite part of the movie
is the first time so many of these very young
actors that I had never seen, yeah, acting that young before.
You know, at that age again, I was young, really young.
This I mean was like ah, I mean, they just
kept at the first like ten minutes of the movie,

(04:23):
they just kept popping up.

Speaker 2 (04:25):
In your face and you're like, wait, what, Oh my gosh.

Speaker 3 (04:29):
You know, there is almost no one in this movie
that I don't recognize, from from the bit players to
the bigger I mean, it's like one person after another. Yeah,
became bigger actors. Character actors went on to star on TV.
It is a stacked cast and we will get into
that before we do. Though, you can watch the leftovers
for the Freeze.

Speaker 1 (04:45):
That's right.

Speaker 3 (04:46):
It costs you no money on YouTube, which is on
the computer machine, so you can go watch it now
if you like or don't.

Speaker 1 (04:52):
You can only lead a horse to water.

Speaker 2 (04:53):
Yes.

Speaker 4 (04:54):
One tidbit though, it the one you want to download
from YouTube is the picture with with John Denver, because
otherwise when I.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
First started going, it was part one, ten minutes Part two.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
I oh, you had one of the broken up ones.

Speaker 2 (05:08):
Oh no, I couldn't.

Speaker 4 (05:10):
And then I realized, oh wait, and I found another one,
and that's a full.

Speaker 1 (05:15):
Nice, very the whole movie. It looks great.

Speaker 3 (05:18):
Yeah, it's actually a John Denver fan page that posted
that posted the full movie.

Speaker 2 (05:22):
That's why I didn't think it was an actual movie.

Speaker 1 (05:24):
Yeah, I thought it was.

Speaker 4 (05:25):
I thought it was going to be a montage of
all their favorite greats and hits and all that Johnny.

Speaker 2 (05:31):
So that's a good tipic.

Speaker 4 (05:33):
Guys, go to the one where it's a nice little
album looking picture of him, and that is a full
movie for you.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
That is from beginning to end.

Speaker 3 (05:40):
Now, one thing I want to talk about right at
the beginning here is because you played a very famous
foster child in Cheetah Girls. I mean, so another Disney famous,
kind of not really famous trope. But I mean a
lot of kids movies deal with orphanages or with foster children.
So I mean, did you know anything about the leftovers

(06:03):
when you film Cheatah Girls? Was this like, I'm going
to go watch that movie, now get in character for
the Cheater Girls.

Speaker 4 (06:09):
Well, as a matter of fact, I kept finding myself
just because we didn't dive in much after the first
movie of being a foster child. That was kind of
the big chunk that you got within the three movies.
But what it all sets up is kind of more
what I feel most movies set it up is not
a great place to grow up, not a lot of stuff.

(06:31):
And the beginning of the movie, as we're going through it,
I don't want to jump ahead too much, but these
kids had the biggest rooms, huge homes, giant house.

Speaker 1 (06:41):
All their stuff, bikes and stuff.

Speaker 4 (06:44):
Yeah, so this was very different than what we were
trying to portray within my character of not having a lot,
you know, really struggling having to kind of pick in
piece little outfits together for her, you know, cute vibe
things like that.

Speaker 2 (07:00):
This was a little bit different.

Speaker 3 (07:02):
Yeah, we'll talk about that, because it does seem like
the environment they were in did not seem to be
very foster. You know, again, I don't know much about
the foster care system, but I do not imagine it
was much like this right set up that day.

Speaker 4 (07:16):
At least is how it always played out on the media,
you know what I mean, on movies and TVs.

Speaker 1 (07:22):
Yeah, they really set this one.

Speaker 2 (07:24):
It was a cool house with some cool crazing.

Speaker 3 (07:27):
Yes, all right, So before we perform surgery on a
dolls broken leg or remove part of its brain, let's
get into the synopsis here. The director of a foster
home hires a young widow. Weirdly, we'll get into that too,
how she just shows up. But the director of foster
home hires a young widow to keep house for his
family of forgotten orphans, only to find out there's a
devious plan set in motion to completely shut down and

(07:50):
sell the house right right off the bat. What did
you think of the film?

Speaker 4 (07:55):
So again, one of the things that really first of all,
the very first thing I thought was, I asked, Jordan,
who work? My husband and I are watching it together,
and there's this contraption on a bicycle that flings out
her newspapers.

Speaker 1 (08:09):
Newspaper.

Speaker 4 (08:09):
Now again, by the time I came around newspapers, someone
was driving in a car, maybe throwing them. I don't
even really think I ever paid attention to how much
how a newspaper came to the door or on the driveway.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
But this was new to me, and so I'm going, Jordan,
is that how he goes? He's younger than me. He's like,
I have no idea. I don't know if that's a
normal newspaper contraption. I'm like, that thing's kind of cool.

Speaker 3 (08:35):
Yeah, oh no, oh, so wait you he thought that
maybe in the eighties there was an actual newspaper cannon
that attached to bikes.

Speaker 2 (08:45):
Yes, those are cool.

Speaker 1 (08:47):
What what were the eighties like in your mind? I'm curious,
very brief and not really existent.

Speaker 2 (08:55):
So I had no idea.

Speaker 3 (08:57):
I think we have to assume that that is her
inventor brother.

Speaker 2 (09:02):
Once I find.

Speaker 4 (09:03):
Out she's got an inventor brother, and I see all
his other gadgets, That's when I said, oh, man, Will's
going to.

Speaker 1 (09:10):
Young people wondering about if we had newspaper launchers attached
to the bikes in the eighties.

Speaker 4 (09:17):
Sorry, I'm sorry, I know, I you know, but it
had to be said because it really happened to me
while I was watching this movie.

Speaker 1 (09:25):
Did you like the film overall?

Speaker 4 (09:27):
I thought there was so many holes and not making
sense points and things that I'm excited to kind of
dive into. But I did love Again. I loved the
young cast. Yeah, and I thought I thought they're little
characters and their idea of this close knit family that
you again, which is such a great message. You don't

(09:49):
always have to be born into this amazing tight knit family.
You can create that, you know, and these kids embracing
it and him as a as a foster dad for them.
He I mean, especially towards the end. And I will
say that if in my Sabrina Seaes, if we don't
cover I teered up.

Speaker 2 (10:06):
There was one cut that I teared up.

Speaker 4 (10:08):
So, I you know, there were quite a few things
that were hard to get over. It wasn't I was
not excited to jump and watch it for a second time,
that's for sure. Yeah, maybe down the line, I will,
But it was it was pretty good.

Speaker 2 (10:25):
It was pretty good.

Speaker 1 (10:26):
I kind of felt the same way again.

Speaker 3 (10:28):
The cast stellar great to see all the young talent
that was there.

Speaker 1 (10:33):
Yeah, John Denver.

Speaker 4 (10:35):
I'm assuming in their like firs first roles to these
little kids right by their first opportunity.

Speaker 3 (10:41):
This was par for the course back in the eighties,
especially which was I mean not the newspaper shooters that
was a fake thing, but taking a movie like so ABC, NBC, Disney,
they would all do this thing where they would take
these movies of the week and you would cast it
as many people that were big on television at the
time as possible, you know, And I think NBC was

(11:03):
the one that really started to do it with movies
like Poison IVY or High School USA, where they would
take Michael J. Fox, they would take cast members from
different strokes and they put them all into one kind
of movie. So this was a fun version of that
where it hadn't it happened without them knowing it, meaning
that a bunch of the kids they cast would then.

Speaker 1 (11:21):
Go on ye incredible career. So I felt the same way.

Speaker 3 (11:26):
A lot of it made absolutely no sense, It needed
a solid rewrite, but it was It was fun for
what it was.

Speaker 4 (11:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (11:36):
So, yeah, we keep talking about the cast that's stacked.
Why don't we get into.

Speaker 2 (11:47):
The get into it because it's pretty awesome.

Speaker 1 (11:50):
It really is.

Speaker 3 (11:51):
So we've already mentioned that the movie stars John Denver.
He plays Max Sinclair.

Speaker 4 (11:56):
Now.

Speaker 3 (11:56):
John Denver was obviously a singing and songwriting legend who
dabbled TV.

Speaker 1 (12:00):
So the hit songs are one after another.

Speaker 3 (12:03):
It's Leaving on a jet plane, take Me Home, Country Road,
Rocky Mountain High.

Speaker 1 (12:07):
I mean, just one kind of hit after another.

Speaker 3 (12:10):
He also became the first American artist to tour the
USSR after the Cold War, and it was considered a
massive moment in a very tense situation between the two megapowers.
He was also the first Western artist to do a
multi city tour of mainland China in nineteen ninety two.
John Denver was like the guy you called when when
a country finally opened up and something western was allowed,

(12:32):
we'd send John Denver, Like, there you go, John, take
it for us, Golden Boy. He was a huge fan
of airplanes. He famously wanted to be one of the
first people to go in the Space Shuttle. When he
was one of the people considered actually when Kristam Kaliffe,
the unfortunate teacher who died in nineteen eighty six on
the shuttle Challenger. John Denver was one of the people

(12:53):
that was actually considered to go up on the shuttle
as well.

Speaker 1 (12:55):
He loved being a pilot.

Speaker 3 (12:57):
It was one of his first love's next to music,
and unfortunately it cost him his life because he tragically
died in nineteen ninety seven while piloting an experimental aircraft
above Monterey Bay, and he was only fifty three years old,
which is a shame. Second on the call sheet is
Cindy Williams, who is another television legend. She is universally
beloved as Shirley Feenie, Yes that is her last name,

(13:19):
Shirley Feenie in Laverne and Shirley, a sitcom that is
still considered one of the greatest ever created. She plays
Heather Drew. That's the nanny that's hired and I'm putting
hired in quotes. She just shows up, which is really weird,
to help at the orphanage in exchange for room board.
Williams would also appear in the movies American Graffiti and
The Conversation and was working as recently as last year
when she.

Speaker 1 (13:38):
Passed away at the age of seventy five. Very unfortunate.

Speaker 3 (13:41):
She was a great, great television presence, especially and television legend.

Speaker 1 (13:45):
And then a friend of mine.

Speaker 3 (13:47):
Pam Adlon, but credited as Pam Saghal, plays Jesse, the
street smart orphan with a strong sense of friendship. Pam
has been acting since the age of nine, but it
wasn't until her fifties that she became a familiar name
in pop culture. She began her career in Greece two
and would appear on shows like Facts of Life in
Night Court. She was in movies like Say Anything, The
Adventures of Ford Fairlane, but it wasn't until thirty years

(14:08):
later that her role on Louis and then the spinoff.
I guess it's kind of a spinoff, but not really.
It's more about her life better things that she'd find
herself nominated for six Emmy Awards. She is also, and
I can say this, one of the most talented and
heralded voice actors of all time. She's best known as
Bobby Hill on King of the Hill, a role that
she won an Emmy four in two thousand and two.

(14:30):
And here's some other things. She's been in of the
hundreds of I mean, she's a legend in the animation world.
Rick and Morty, Bob's, Burger's, Phineas and ferb Rugrats and
Recess where she was Spinelli. She was also my Pumyra
to my Liono in ThunderCats and I got to write.

Speaker 1 (14:47):
I wrote the two episodes she was in. It was
really really cool.

Speaker 2 (14:49):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (14:50):
And she's the nicest, sweetest. What you see is what
you get with Pam. She's so funny and she's was
a talented actor even back in the day.

Speaker 1 (14:59):
It's just some meant to be in this industry.

Speaker 2 (15:02):
Yes, she was so cute.

Speaker 1 (15:03):
She is great.

Speaker 3 (15:04):
And then Friend of Ours, friend of all the podcasts
in the world. Andrew Barber plays Zoe, the quirky stuffed
animal doctor living in the orphanage Andrews, best known as
the iconic Kimmy Gibbler from full and Fuller House.

Speaker 1 (15:18):
This is well over a year before that.

Speaker 3 (15:22):
Uh, the audition for full House when she was just
little kid was this movie.

Speaker 1 (15:25):
So she was already rocking it.

Speaker 2 (15:26):
Wow.

Speaker 4 (15:27):
So she was even younger than I thought when she
did Full House.

Speaker 3 (15:31):
Yeah, they were that's when we talked to the Full House. Uh,
to everybody from Full House. They were all younger than
we thought they were. Yeah, I mean you're talking to
Jody and everybody there.

Speaker 1 (15:39):
They were kids. They were like kid kids.

Speaker 2 (15:41):
Aby started ye yeah gee and.

Speaker 1 (15:43):
At only six years old.

Speaker 3 (15:45):
Andrew also appeared in almost one hundred episodes of Days
of Our Lives. We talked to her about that. I
think she was at Bowen Hope's wedding. Don't get me started.
And now while we're talking TGIF, Jalil White played Jake,
the culinary and airline friendly young chef of the house.
He's another Family TV icon, obviously known as Steve Erkele
from Family Matters, a character that would later appear on

(16:07):
Full House. So we get a little early sign of
the things that are going to come in Hollywood in
the Leftovers with Jaliel very very young again, this is
only his fifth job in Hollywood at the time. This
is nineteen eighty six. And then of course Erkele takes
over and becomes an absolute household.

Speaker 4 (16:27):
He was just meant to be a character actor. And
it starts here. There wasn't a whole lot of stuff
that you could tell was actually given to him with
this character, but he plays it. He was so animated,
and I mean he just is just so freaking cute.

Speaker 1 (16:42):
He just lights up the screen.

Speaker 3 (16:44):
One of those kids doesn't matter how old you are,
that you know what you're born to do, and just
absolutely lights up the screen. I mean, I know it's
crazy to kind of equate these, but it's like a
Shirley Temple where it didn't matter how old they were,
you just put them on screen and they light up.

Speaker 1 (17:00):
They light up everything.

Speaker 2 (17:01):
You can't take it and easily.

Speaker 1 (17:03):
And a lot of this cast were those young actors.
They really were.

Speaker 3 (17:07):
Then we've got George Weiner, who plays the evil mister Gladstone,
the money hungry owner of the orphanage who doesn't believe
in Max's way of running the business and is looking
to well sell it all off. Winer is a widely
recognizable character actor known for Spaceball's Fletch, not another teenage movie.
He is also one of the many people in this
movie that was also on Boy Meets World. So there's

(17:29):
more to come, but he just covered his episode. He's
been in everything, oh wow. And he was so funny
in Fletch, but and in Spaceballs. I mean just hysterical.
The movie runs ninety four minutes. Again, we're so close,
We're four minutes off from our ninety minute mark that
we are just trying to hit. Someday, somebody who's gonna
make it ninety minute movie. It was directed by Paul Schneider,

(17:50):
a veteran of TV movies and TV shows. His resume
includes Beverly Hills, nine Ozho two or Zero, Myth Quest,
and the movie You Lucky Doug. It's written by and
I'm gonna say this name twice because it's spelled g
e N, So it's either gen or Jen Leroy, who
also wrote the Disney movie Rock and Roll Mom, and
Steve Slapkin, who go on to write another kind of

(18:10):
Kids Run the Asylum Show Salute Your Shorts. Okay, now
we need to save The orphanage trope is very classic
and it's a specific trope that dates all the way
back to the Three Stooges. Other movies in the genre
include sisterrac two, Snowball Express, and Jessica Alba's Honey Never
Saw That. There are other versions of it as well,
you know, obviously Saving the YMCA or an Old Folks Home. Now,

(18:33):
there are movies that are super important in my life
when it comes to stuff such as Break into Electric
Boogloo where Man they had to go save the rec
Center hugely great film that was very important to my childhood.
Or Happy Gilmour uhf another great movie. These are all
variations of the theme of we've got to save something.

(18:53):
So what do you think of this premise as a
start for the film? I mean, just basic but good, right.

Speaker 4 (18:59):
Right, And the way it kind of comes out, I
felt started to lag a little bit to figure out
what their actual mission was going to be, right, that
got a little murky yeah, kind.

Speaker 2 (19:11):
Of bounce back and forth. I was waiting for what's
the mission? Where are we going?

Speaker 3 (19:16):
You know?

Speaker 4 (19:16):
But but other than that, I mean it it's always fun,
especially when you have a young cast, to see how
they're going to figure out, you know.

Speaker 2 (19:24):
I loved that they.

Speaker 4 (19:26):
Had to take bikes in the middle of the night, Yes,
jumping in someone's car and having someone drive them, that
kind of stuff. Having kids figure out fun, interesting ways
to complete the mission is.

Speaker 2 (19:38):
Always always still being kids, Yeah, still being kids.

Speaker 4 (19:41):
Yeah, you know, they're limited, and so they've got to
find some fun different ways.

Speaker 3 (19:46):
So so do you think the fact that they're living
in a giant Victorian style house where every kid gets
a six hundred square foot loft suite of their own. Yeah,
maybe if they just downsize to a regular size house,
could that have solved all the problem?

Speaker 4 (20:03):
Yes, probably, you know, maybe sub let it out, let
out the upstairs.

Speaker 2 (20:10):
That's a huge it is giant.

Speaker 3 (20:13):
I think what they were kind of this is why
it's called the leftovers. I think what they're kind of
trying to insinuate is that it was full of kids.

Speaker 2 (20:20):
Multi Yes, that's how I took it too.

Speaker 3 (20:22):
Yeah, and they got adopted, and these are the kids
that didn't get it. DS are the leftovers, which is
what they're called obviously. But it still seems like, hey,
mister Gladstone, why don't we sell this multi million dollar
building and move into a smaller place. Then you get
what you want, I get what I want. Bob's your uncle,
we're all good to go. That, of course, did not happen,

(20:42):
but it seemed like an easy way to save the money,
right speaking of the evil mister Gladstone, or would have
gotten away with it wasn't for you meddling kids. Right
off the bat, we learned that he's visiting the orphanage,
so he's at the start of the movie.

Speaker 1 (20:56):
He's coming in.

Speaker 3 (20:57):
We learn right away that he's an awful human being
and all the kids and John Denver Max need to
be on their best behavior while he's there, and so
Jesse runs around she warns all the kids in the house.
Zoe has a very, very weird obsession with brutally operating
on and kind of ripping apart dolls, which I think

(21:20):
is one of the triads of sociopathy, if I'm not wrong.

Speaker 2 (21:24):
Yeah, it was creepy, but like hilarious I thought.

Speaker 4 (21:29):
I mean, she there's at one point where she doesn't
she's not using scissors or you know, she's using a
full blown saw because she saw her doll in half.

Speaker 2 (21:41):
Yeah, you know she's giving it CPR.

Speaker 4 (21:44):
She sleeps with the doll because she's had an emergency
in the middle of the night. I mean, this kid's
little brain in her imagination is just wild.

Speaker 2 (21:55):
Every kid's gory, but it's just it's so epic.

Speaker 4 (21:58):
You have to think it's pretty adorable, right when they
go that far.

Speaker 3 (22:03):
I mean, yeah, I would say it's adorable at this age.
If she's still ripping apart stuff at eleven or twelve,
it might be time.

Speaker 4 (22:09):
Yes, she seemed they played her very very young, so
that made it less.

Speaker 1 (22:15):
Creepy in it they did, which is which works perfect.

Speaker 2 (22:18):
It wasn't the kid in toy story.

Speaker 3 (22:19):
Yeah, except so she's got her her doll hospital. And
then we've got Julia White's Jake, who's a health food
obsessed culinary expert. Charlie the science and technology inventor who
uses the addict to work with gravitational fields and meatball launchers.
Now the actor for this. The second he popped on screen,
I was like, oh, yes, his name is Jason Presen

(22:41):
or Pressin. I think it's pressing. He was also in
the Disney movie The Brat Patrol from nineteen eighty six,
which was really really good.

Speaker 1 (22:48):
And he was in another huge movie of my childhood.

Speaker 3 (22:52):
He was in The Explorers with Ethan Hawk and River Phoenix,
which is just and I don't know if you've ever
seen this movie.

Speaker 1 (22:59):
It is the great movie in the world. This three
little kids.

Speaker 3 (23:02):
It's Ethan Hawk at like twelve, River Phoenix at like twelve,
and then this game Jason Presson and they get these
dreams from they don't know where they're coming from but
they use the dreams to build a spaceship and fly
up and to meet this alien. It is the coolest
movie when you were a little kid. It is just
the greatest thing ever. So I'm sorry, I could totally
go off on.

Speaker 1 (23:22):
The Edgeloorers right now.

Speaker 2 (23:23):
We love a science fiction movie.

Speaker 3 (23:25):
It was so incredible. He hasn't been acting steadily since
nineteen ninety one. His last gig was nineteen ninety seven,
so it seems like he still lives in la but
he just left the industry. But he his resume, especially
for a young actor, was just so cool.

Speaker 1 (23:42):
So the house is supposed to be kind of crazy.

Speaker 4 (23:47):
Pants, Yeah, just lots of different energy. These kids all
have very big personalities. Ye're very in depth interests, right.
Their rooms are just filled with so much that they're
interested in.

Speaker 2 (24:03):
And it's a lot.

Speaker 1 (24:05):
But there's also two dogs, a snake.

Speaker 3 (24:09):
That was so unnecessary, and for some reason I don't understand,
a goat.

Speaker 1 (24:14):
There's also a goat.

Speaker 2 (24:15):
The goat.

Speaker 1 (24:16):
Yeah, just so all the kids weren't enough, you also
needed a snake and a goat.

Speaker 4 (24:22):
And with the goat came with the farming brothers, right,
the two yes, what they were twins.

Speaker 3 (24:27):
They were twins, right, I think there were twin little
kids are farmers that wouldn't eat their goat. They just
want to keep it away from their little sister who
might take it apart with herself.

Speaker 1 (24:37):
But anyway, the.

Speaker 3 (24:39):
Kids seem like they're pretty self sufficient, especially with Pam
Adlon's character almost playing Jesse kind of like.

Speaker 1 (24:47):
A mom older sister role. She's definitely how old do
you think she was supposed to be?

Speaker 2 (24:54):
I would think she was around thirteen or fourteen.

Speaker 1 (24:58):
Okay, that's what I was going to say.

Speaker 3 (24:59):
She obviously she's on the older side, but doesn't drive,
so I was thinking like fourteen fifteen, yeah, yeah, which
again she takes on the kind of family role of
like I said, older sister kind of mom, until Cindy
Williams shows up for again a really weird reason that
I do understand. So yeah, the kids are told to

(25:20):
be on their best behavior and Max says he's got
to be on his best behavior as well.

Speaker 1 (25:25):
But then mister Gladstone, mean guy comes in.

Speaker 3 (25:27):
He is shocked by the kids behavior, the state of
the house over the past six years.

Speaker 1 (25:31):
The kids aren't getting adopted at all.

Speaker 3 (25:32):
These these kids that are left which is again what
they're called the leftovers, and it's he believes it's because
that Max Sinclair is too picky as a director of
this orphanage. So the committee has decided to close down
the home in only five weeks, and they want to
use a marketing campaign to.

Speaker 1 (25:51):
Make sure that the remaining children are adopted.

Speaker 3 (25:54):
Adopting a foster child is as easy as buying a donut.

Speaker 1 (25:57):
That is actually the statement that the guy uses.

Speaker 4 (26:02):
This is when I was a yelling at the screen, Yes,
how are you?

Speaker 2 (26:08):
How do you have this job?

Speaker 4 (26:10):
You are so awful the things you were calling these kids,
the even idea that you're talking about selling them essentially, yes,
as doughnuts, you know, I mean it just it was
so bizarre, and you know, everything that ended up happening
to him was just I loved because he was just awful, awful,

(26:32):
horrible man.

Speaker 3 (26:33):
I'd also like to point out here that every time
he gets into the car when he leaves, he has
an assistant that's in shadow. Keep that in mind, because
that's going to come back for something very very cool.
But this assistant is kind of always in shadow when
he's there. But so, yeah, they're going to shut down
the home. The kind of unseid issue in the movie
is that the parents that we do meet that are

(26:53):
looking to adopt the children also really nice.

Speaker 2 (26:57):
That's the thing the parents.

Speaker 3 (26:59):
Yes, a couple parents come in at the time, and
they didn't make them these awful people. They made them like,
I mean, this one couple that comes in want to
adopt a young girl because they lost their own child, right,
I mean, it's like, that's that's heartbreaking and horrible.

Speaker 2 (27:16):
I feel what they put.

Speaker 4 (27:17):
First of all, they acted like these two kids standing
on a dining room table singing. You know what I
would have done if I walked in it, I would
have been like, yes, I will also take those too.
They are so talented and adorable and entertaining. Let's just
get let's let's keep this party going. They were so
cute and they were appalled.

Speaker 2 (27:38):
What's going on?

Speaker 4 (27:39):
I mean when she comes in in her witch costume,
the little guy in the snorkel alpha.

Speaker 2 (27:44):
Yeah, that kind of was weird. But they were just
kids being kids too.

Speaker 3 (27:50):
Hey, that's the thing. They're just they're yelling, they're dressed
in costume, they're singing, but this nice. They make them
the villains of the movie. This nice couple that have
lost their child and trying to adopt a little girl.

Speaker 1 (28:02):
It's so strange.

Speaker 3 (28:03):
By the way, Uh, the woman, I don't know who
the man was, but the woman played a reoccurring nurse
on Mas should of course, I've got to give a
mash shout out. She played Nurse Bigelow, Nurse Bigelow in many,
many episodes, thank you very much. But it was so
strange that you figure they would have made them awful
or I want these kids to work. I mean, if
they're going Disney with it, I want these kids to

(28:23):
work in my factory or somebody, right, But no, there's.

Speaker 1 (28:25):
This nice, loving couple that wanted to finally got their
hearts open the adopting a child.

Speaker 2 (28:31):
And yeah, I find out it was a little okay.

Speaker 3 (28:34):
It was Yeah, that one was a little like okay,
So is there a reason Do we ever get into
why John Denver just doesn't adopt all the kids himself
and move into another smaller house.

Speaker 1 (28:46):
They never really addressed.

Speaker 2 (28:47):
That, do they They don't.

Speaker 4 (28:48):
I think it was yeah, I think it was assumed
that it was he did not have the money to
take over.

Speaker 2 (28:56):
You know, obviously he couldn't.

Speaker 1 (28:57):
Guess it's mentioned.

Speaker 3 (28:58):
Yeah, it's mentioned in the end a little little bit,
and it's by that point it's too late, so it's.

Speaker 4 (29:02):
Yeah, right, it was, it was mentioned. I guess that
it was. You know, it's the lawyer. I think when
he's saying and he has the best list of stuff,
it's like, you know, Max, they kids need socks, they
need they need He says, socks is like one of
the first things they need. Orthodonis, they need moose.

Speaker 2 (29:23):
Yes, that is the worst part about the kid.

Speaker 4 (29:26):
Being a parent myself, the thing, I am just really
nervous about the day that Ledger needs moose for his hand.

Speaker 1 (29:33):
Well, that's the problem. That's one of the its Like,
no joke.

Speaker 3 (29:36):
It's probably the main reason I never had children is
because I knew they needed moose and socks.

Speaker 1 (29:40):
I was like, what am I me?

Speaker 2 (29:43):
Orthodonist? You know, they embraced it. They need to go
to college.

Speaker 4 (29:47):
Those kinds of bills. I totally understand now with socks
and moose.

Speaker 1 (29:51):
It's moose and socks.

Speaker 4 (29:53):
My dog stuff is the same price as any of
that stuff. You know, come on, give me a break.
This wrist was pretty funny, but yes, that's what he
was saying. You don't have the money to do this
and I both know it. So that's I guess the
biggest reason.

Speaker 3 (30:05):
Okay, well yeah, I mean it's if you can't afford
moose and socks, forget the orthodontia.

Speaker 1 (30:18):
So we finally then that the reason I.

Speaker 3 (30:21):
Brought it up, because this is where I'm starting the
Boy Means World thing is we finally get to see
who his assistant in shadow is, and it's Willie Garson,
who did many episodes of Boy Means World. God rest him.
He was such a wonderful god Sex and the City
and everything else. But he's best known as Stanford on
Sex and the City.

Speaker 2 (30:38):
Wait, the young guy in the car.

Speaker 4 (30:41):
Yes, no, yes, I sat next to him at a
Laker game one time.

Speaker 3 (30:48):
He's that was the greatest guy in the world. He
married Corey and Tipanga. He was did three episodes of
the show. He was on the set all the time.
He was a good friend of Michael Jacobs, who created
the show.

Speaker 2 (30:58):
Didn't even have a line in the movie.

Speaker 1 (31:01):
Maybe it got yeah, but that was willing will And
if that wasn't cool enough too.

Speaker 3 (31:07):
At the end, when they're now watching the news in
the garage, is the garage. The guy who runs the
garage is comedian Domirera, who was just on Podmeets World.

Speaker 1 (31:19):
Because he was also on boy Me Throll. He played
a great So we just had all these boy Me
throw people on it.

Speaker 3 (31:23):
I'm wow, Producer Jensen going, that was a young dom Irera.

Speaker 1 (31:28):
So everybody's there. It's great. So yes, we got miss
Willy all the time.

Speaker 3 (31:33):
And every time I get to see him, I just
I'm simultaneously so happy and so sad, but it's it
was wonderful to see him. Great actor, phenomenal and a
and a great guy too. So he finally reveals to
Willie Carson's character essentially mister mister bad guy, I need
the money. I don't care what happens to the kids

(31:53):
at all. I just want the land. And that's when
you know we got we got a real battye here.
This is this is not good, is it?

Speaker 1 (32:00):
So John Denver?

Speaker 3 (32:01):
Of course, then to the rescue. I've got to go
get I've got to go get money. So he gets
into the weirdest mode of transportation it's possibly ever put
on phone.

Speaker 2 (32:14):
Do you equivalentate that van with.

Speaker 1 (32:17):
That goes through his van? Can you walk us through
his van a little bit.

Speaker 4 (32:20):
It was I mean going back even a longer generation
farther in front of my time, but it looked like
a seventies van that was spray painted.

Speaker 2 (32:32):
My guess is.

Speaker 1 (32:33):
Maybe the kids he let the kids painted, is that
what they were going for?

Speaker 2 (32:37):
Smoked constantly.

Speaker 4 (32:39):
It looked like they had a hard time opening and
shutting the doors.

Speaker 2 (32:43):
This car.

Speaker 4 (32:44):
You needed to jiggle the ignition key. I mean, this
thing was a pos. It was not a great car
to be safely driving.

Speaker 2 (32:55):
Twelve kids in and two dogs.

Speaker 1 (32:58):
They don't bring the do they bring the dog?

Speaker 2 (33:00):
Brought the goat, but for some reason he brings the dogs.
When he's getting a loan. It just it was then.

Speaker 3 (33:05):
We please talk about this is the holes in the
plot for yeah, the ridiculousness of the loan scenes. Because yes,
so he goes to the bank like a loan, like
a not even a bank, it's like all cash app
loan kind of place without an app because it's nineteen
eighty six. But like he's trying to get them at

(33:27):
the local bank. They give him stuff to fill out
to get.

Speaker 2 (33:30):
The loan, and he's instantly hungry.

Speaker 1 (33:33):
He's instantly hungry for lunch. It's lunch.

Speaker 3 (33:35):
He knows he's got to sit there, and so his
foster daughter whatever, Jesse says, I made you a peanut
butter sandwich.

Speaker 1 (33:43):
Very sweet.

Speaker 3 (33:43):
He opens it up and he pulls it out, and
it's not a peanut butter sandwich.

Speaker 1 (33:47):
It's one of the doll's brains. But for some reason it's.

Speaker 2 (33:51):
Wet and giant. A giant brain for a doll, I felt.

Speaker 1 (33:58):
But also who puts in?

Speaker 5 (34:00):
What kind of doll had an anatomically correct and wet brain?

Speaker 2 (34:05):
Not none. Those dolls heads are filled with cotton like
they're not.

Speaker 4 (34:10):
They don't ever have brains. There's no reason for them
to have them.

Speaker 1 (34:13):
So was it supposed to be a prank?

Speaker 2 (34:15):
You think, like, yes, They talk about it a little
bit later.

Speaker 4 (34:18):
They refer to it, oh Jesse peanut butter jelly, because
she does it again when he goes back out, he said,
They go like, as if this is like kind of
one of Jesse's things.

Speaker 2 (34:28):
She sort of does pranks, is what I.

Speaker 3 (34:29):
Oh, I thought, she I thought when they said it again,
it was her going like, I made sure it's actually
a sandwich this time.

Speaker 1 (34:35):
Because he takes the bag again. It doesn't make any sense.

Speaker 2 (34:38):
No, and he doesn't even check it.

Speaker 4 (34:40):
I would have been like, mm hmm, okay, fine, all right,
thank you for the brain.

Speaker 1 (34:43):
It falls on the Yanks. The brain falls on the
ground in.

Speaker 2 (34:48):
The bank, and everyone's horrified, horrified.

Speaker 1 (34:51):
Freaks out.

Speaker 3 (34:52):
He then steps on it or people he's trying to
find on the ground. So security comes.

Speaker 4 (34:58):
And now he's a psych path who needs to be
escorted out.

Speaker 3 (35:02):
Of the bank loan center place. Yeah, by the security guard.

Speaker 2 (35:09):
Yes, And he gets thrown out.

Speaker 3 (35:11):
It's literally physically thrown out because of weird anatomically correct
doll brain.

Speaker 2 (35:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (35:18):
He then tries to go back with a bad mustache
on and is actually arrested.

Speaker 4 (35:25):
Yeah, for no reason because he went to go get
water and his mustache.

Speaker 1 (35:32):
Fell off, and then security guard recognized him.

Speaker 2 (35:36):
And then took him out, but then.

Speaker 1 (35:38):
Had him actually arrested. The next scene is his lawyer
friend about a git. It's like, what was he arrested for?
I got? I did not get I paused. I was like,
what am I missing?

Speaker 4 (35:53):
My goodness, the amount of times I could have got
arrested for some random stuff? Right?

Speaker 1 (36:00):
How many times have you stepped on an anatomically correct dog?

Speaker 4 (36:03):
One?

Speaker 2 (36:03):
Thank god? None but I've I have definitely been where
my purse balls apart. My stuff lies everywhere, and I'm
like a.

Speaker 4 (36:11):
Nuisance to the whole room because my lip glosses over there,
my bones over there.

Speaker 2 (36:16):
I mean, is that all it.

Speaker 4 (36:17):
Took back in the eighties to get arrested?

Speaker 1 (36:19):
Eighties? Serious? And in all fairness, though, I've seen your
fake mustache. It's awesome.

Speaker 3 (36:24):
So yours looks way better than John Denver's did. And
I didn't even remember that whole time. I had that
whole conversation with you.

Speaker 1 (36:32):
No idea, but very very strange.

Speaker 3 (36:36):
So then he's put in jail for no reason, for
no reason, and the kids, as they're waiting for him
to come back, I think from lone app attempt number two,
they see a woman walking up for no reason who
then is smelling flowers and is attacked by a bee,
a bee which is never mentioned again or brought up

(36:57):
in any way, shape or form. She's then just in house.
Her name is Heather. She finds her way with her
new baby Katie.

Speaker 4 (37:05):
And okay, wait, I don't I won't cover it in
Sabranci's there's too many, So we've got to talk about
this basket that the baby's revealed.

Speaker 2 (37:13):
In she's walking upstairs.

Speaker 4 (37:15):
Yeah, with her suitcase and a weirdly weird I mean
maybe this was a basket of the eighties.

Speaker 2 (37:21):
Again, I wouldn't know about it.

Speaker 1 (37:23):
Eighties basket who knows.

Speaker 2 (37:25):
It's a very strange shape.

Speaker 4 (37:28):
It looks almost similar to like a longer version of
what Bell uses while she's in the little town singing,
and you know, and it's.

Speaker 2 (37:36):
Like, what's in there? What's in there?

Speaker 4 (37:38):
Oh, you're walking around with your child in a in
a basket?

Speaker 2 (37:44):
Okay, not buckled it.

Speaker 3 (37:46):
You've never heard about eighties basket babies very very very popular,
very much.

Speaker 2 (37:50):
Are you mean serious?

Speaker 4 (37:52):
Of course?

Speaker 1 (37:53):
What is an eighties basket baby? Wow? You sorious.

Speaker 4 (37:58):
Y'all were crazy and I don't know you got rocket
launchers for your newspapers.

Speaker 3 (38:04):
Well, the cool thing was the combination of the two.
We would launch the babies from the front of the bike.

Speaker 2 (38:09):
I've never even seen or heard of someone literally walking.

Speaker 4 (38:12):
Around their child in a basket, not a bassinet, a
basket of woven little wooden basket thing.

Speaker 2 (38:20):
It was so strange.

Speaker 1 (38:23):
But the kids, the kids first think she's a parent
trying to adopt them, so they go off on their
their whole plan being with the plan B, which is
dressing up in you know, different outfits and stuff like that,
and then they're like, wait, that.

Speaker 2 (38:36):
Was a tomato plant comedy that was so funny.

Speaker 1 (38:39):
Has a tomato plant.

Speaker 4 (38:40):
It's pretty funny committed to but then they realized that
she's not there to adopt them.

Speaker 1 (38:46):
She's there to get a job. She's was also an
orphan growing.

Speaker 4 (38:50):
Up and now is her husband has passed away, she
now has a young baby to.

Speaker 1 (38:57):
Raise and what was it?

Speaker 3 (38:58):
She saw an old ad for help on like the
grocery store. They had to explain it because otherwise she
just shows up at this house and is like.

Speaker 2 (39:06):
Yeah, live here.

Speaker 4 (39:07):
Now he's not Max is not waiting for her. She
never contacted him. She just literally shows up at this
house and she and it's briefly talked about. It's pretty
much one sentence of the movie where she saw this
ad and just poof made sense on my way.

Speaker 1 (39:25):
And then she's part of their life. That was it.
It was like they have one small discussion about it.

Speaker 4 (39:31):
Questioned it, yeah, nope, Max questioned it for all of
twenty seconds.

Speaker 1 (39:35):
Hey, who's this lady with this baby? No background checks.

Speaker 4 (39:39):
Mind you, who's this stranger, this older woman that just
could never happen in a movie nowadays because stranger danger
is just too too crazy.

Speaker 3 (39:51):
It was the eighties, no helmets, no background checks, Yes
it was. So she's just now part of the house.
She she is now, she's great with the ca she
does chores. She's like, I will make myself useful.

Speaker 4 (40:03):
Yes, they did say they had a housekeeper of some
sort that had left or passed away something like that,
something like that. So she was filling in this spot
that they needed and didn't need money for it, just
a place to stay.

Speaker 2 (40:17):
I guess that is what it was.

Speaker 1 (40:18):
So she's now just part of the family.

Speaker 3 (40:21):
And when anytime a possible adopting family calls, we actually
get to see a little bit of Pam's amazing voiceover
work already back in the day, picking up the phone,
changing her voices doing it.

Speaker 4 (40:31):
Yes, she did a great job that. When now that
I know she was a voice actor, it's like, yeah.

Speaker 1 (40:37):
Oh yeah, oh no, she she kills shells.

Speaker 2 (40:40):
She had a wide range, even a young.

Speaker 3 (40:42):
Young aga, oh yeah she would. Everybody knew what she
was going to be doing. And so when the family
does actually visit Uh to come and get Zoe. They're
looking for a little girl because again this is the
nice couple who have lost a child and are looking
to give another child a beautiful, wonderful home.

Speaker 1 (41:01):
So of course the villains.

Speaker 3 (41:05):
They get they walk into what you were talking about,
Juliel and one of the farming kids doing a pretty
incredible song on the team.

Speaker 4 (41:16):
Yes, fully decked out costumed electric guitars.

Speaker 1 (41:21):
Just j could play too. He was doing yes, And you.

Speaker 4 (41:27):
Know he did do a little bit of singing and
stuff within his career.

Speaker 1 (41:31):
Oh that makes sense.

Speaker 4 (41:32):
Yeah, so you know he was a performer for sure.
And so I thought they were great.

Speaker 1 (41:37):
They were great.

Speaker 3 (41:38):
They they were punk and some of the lyrics they're
singing are like punk punk, shredding rock and one of
them is you try and make us go to bed,
will kick, scream and bite.

Speaker 1 (41:48):
So yeah, they're trying to make it like we're going
to be the worst people. Anyway.

Speaker 3 (41:51):
They hide Zoe because they don't want her to be
taken away, and they are trying to get the couple
to leave. The couple's like, we're not leaving. We're gonna
go talk to mister Gladstone. We want to talk to
the kid. They're like, there's no no girl here. We're like, yeah,
we know there's a girl here. Please, we've lost our child.
Let us at least see a child.

Speaker 1 (42:08):
Horrible. Uh So they're going to talk to mister Gladstone.

Speaker 4 (42:12):
That's when the mom, the the woman started getting a
little like, well, I'm going to talk to mister Gladstone.

Speaker 3 (42:19):
Well I would be too, like I drove all the
way here to see a little kid, But give me,
where's the kid?

Speaker 1 (42:24):
I want? When we're supposed to adopt. We're trying to
give this kid a home.

Speaker 3 (42:27):
But if there's an actual villain in this movie, not
just mister Gladstone, but John Denver eventually runs up the
old van again and goes to see his aunt Winifred Oh,
who is uber wealthy, has had the same butler forever
who helped to raise Max. So they have a kind

(42:47):
of a wonderful relationship. But she's one step away from
using baby skin to make a coat. I mean, it's like,
how bad, how awful was was this woman?

Speaker 4 (43:01):
Yes, she's she's crazy and mean, and it's it's interesting
to know that he was raised by her when she
doesn't seem motherly in any sense.

Speaker 3 (43:16):
No, well, I think it's the butler that really raised him,
that's what they.

Speaker 4 (43:21):
One of the funniest parts of the move happens towards
the end of it, after she denies him of any money.
I'm not helping you. You shouldn't be doing this. I
don't like children. You shouldn't.

Speaker 2 (43:32):
I have told you that.

Speaker 4 (43:33):
She said that he's been doing it for six or
seven years, and just it's a waste of time, waste
of money.

Speaker 2 (43:39):
You know, she's just very disappointed.

Speaker 4 (43:41):
I'm assuming she wanted him to get into whatever kind
of business her family could have offered.

Speaker 1 (43:47):
Money business, whatever money business.

Speaker 4 (43:49):
Yeah, he's heading out with the butler, and the butler
goes to get his coat, like slammed.

Speaker 3 (44:02):
Yeah, we're gonna need this as our social clip because
he gets wrestled by this this entire flock.

Speaker 2 (44:10):
He just takes him out, and it was so good, right.

Speaker 1 (44:16):
Off his feet.

Speaker 4 (44:18):
It was so good. I had to watch it a
couple of times. You know, that is my thing. I
love seeing people just get wiped out and then so
much the wear him and Max forget that he doesn't
need his coat.

Speaker 1 (44:33):
It's so fun.

Speaker 2 (44:35):
It was in one of my Subrita Seas. But it's
just too good to not say it right from here.

Speaker 3 (44:39):
It was.

Speaker 1 (44:41):
It was so good, it was great.

Speaker 2 (44:43):
And he didn't even get ended up. He didn't even
get a coat for him.

Speaker 1 (44:46):
He just took him out. He's like, we're good, we're fine.

Speaker 2 (44:49):
You look like you're busy. I'll come get it later.

Speaker 1 (44:52):
I'll be okay, I'll be okay.

Speaker 3 (45:01):
Do you think this movie missed the bar at all
by not having John Denver sing a single song?

Speaker 2 (45:07):
You know how I feel about that.

Speaker 4 (45:09):
You cannot have a vocal artist who is famous for it, right,
not just oh.

Speaker 2 (45:15):
I mean, how many actors in la are.

Speaker 1 (45:18):
You know can also sing?

Speaker 4 (45:19):
So it's not that, but somebody who's known, especially on
this level. I don't know where it would have been,
to be honest, in the movie, there really wasn't a
place that was set up for anything like that.

Speaker 3 (45:34):
You have to add a scene where he grabs a
guitar and he's playing a song to all the kids
sitting around watching.

Speaker 1 (45:39):
I mean, how do you not add that scene?

Speaker 3 (45:41):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (45:42):
I guess I just don't know where it would have been.
There was a lot of chaos constantly.

Speaker 3 (45:47):
Maybe take out the second loan scene with the with
the fake mustache and put in John denversing.

Speaker 1 (45:55):
That could have worked.

Speaker 4 (45:56):
It could have been part of her falling in love
with him, because that was really touch. Does that you know,
like that's a thing they do at night once the
kids are settled down.

Speaker 1 (46:05):
Great idea something like that, Yeah, great idea.

Speaker 3 (46:08):
Yeah, John Denver singing to send you what come on?
That's perfect. So while Max fails at getting the loan
and is actually thrown in jail for it, Zoe ends
up getting adopted after all. Heather, who's Cindy Williams character,
she starts weirdly digging deep into She doesn't trust this
Gladstone character, obviously, and so she starts breaking into his

(46:31):
office and trying to sneak past his secretary to find
out what the plan is. And she finds it. Oh
my god, he's going to sell the land. He doesn't
care about the kids at all.

Speaker 1 (46:42):
This is horrible.

Speaker 3 (46:43):
Yes, Andrea has a heartbreaking scene when she leaves, and
it made me wonder And I can't wait because I
get to say this now.

Speaker 1 (46:52):
We get to ask her on our Parkopper.

Speaker 3 (46:55):
Episode because we are interviewing Andrew Barber, but we get
to ask her how she felt about John Denver, because
it seemed, I mean, all the acting was great, but
they all seem to genuinely really like this guy. Yes,
so I'm hoping she remembers what that's like, because I
can't wait to hear how that relationship affected the acting,
because again, she was great, and he really did seem

(47:16):
to care about all the kids, and they really seem
to care about him. So I can't wait to talk
to her because I want to know what it was
like working with John Denver.

Speaker 2 (47:22):
Yes, I mean John Denver exactly, very cool.

Speaker 1 (47:27):
Zoe leaves.

Speaker 3 (47:28):
She was adopted by a wonderful, caring family, so of
course let's go get her back. They sneak out under
the cover of darkness, They get on their bikes, and
they then find out where her home is, her new home,
and then they pretend to be capped, and so the nighbor.

(47:49):
So then the nice family, the husband and wife, who
are probably ecstatic that they finally have somebody in their
old daughter's room who was again passed away, start treating
them like cats and throwing the I'll do this, and
they throw a boot at one of the kids.

Speaker 1 (48:04):
They splash water on them.

Speaker 2 (48:06):
Water say they're gonna call out the dogs.

Speaker 1 (48:09):
And yes, and then the two little tiny dogs run out.

Speaker 2 (48:12):
Don't forget. They use the newspaper slingshot.

Speaker 1 (48:16):
They ask the cannon to shoot a grappling hook.

Speaker 2 (48:20):
Of nails it on the first try.

Speaker 3 (48:23):
Well, the grappling hooks in the eighties were really well
made and are grappling hook launching machines, which everyone happened.

Speaker 4 (48:30):
Liil obviously has some rope climbing mountain climbing experience. He
goes right in, whoop, He goes right to the wall
and then struggles getting up it, which was funny.

Speaker 1 (48:42):
Very funny. They get up there, Zoe's gone, She's already left.

Speaker 2 (48:46):
He goes directly to that room.

Speaker 3 (48:49):
Well because they say they they knowed what room she's in,
because the family that they have, the parents look over, like, no,
her light's already off, so she's asleep.

Speaker 1 (48:57):
So they're like, Okay, at least we know where she is. Right.
So they a lot of breaking and entrying, a lot
of b and in this movie.

Speaker 3 (49:02):
So they break they break in again, and she has
left a very badly spelled note and there's an emphasis
yes I said that right on how bad her spelling
is that's never really paid off.

Speaker 1 (49:17):
They mentioned it twice, and it also kind of is.

Speaker 2 (49:21):
Pretty fisted about it.

Speaker 3 (49:22):
Yeah, but it also leads to hey, maybe this new
family would have taught her how to spell. So they
finally they find her by singing all the family when
they were driving together. And this is one time you
did get to see John Denver sing, but it was
with everybody was oh my darling Clement time very briefly.
So they all start singing that as a like a

(49:45):
yelling out of her name. They sing the song. They
find her. She's in a playground. Oh thank god, we
can bring her home. And they bring her home, and
now it's morning. The kids were out all freaking night.
That was the thing that amazed me. I was like, oh,
this was not an hour long excursion. They've been out
for like nine hours and nobody's noticed these kids are gone.

Speaker 1 (50:06):
Maybe John Denver isn't the person to be raising them.
I'm sorry, I'm gonna say it.

Speaker 2 (50:10):
Well, and heather sneaks out too, for Bna for breaking
an entry.

Speaker 4 (50:15):
Yes, where is your baby? Who is watching your baby? Well,
you speak out?

Speaker 2 (50:22):
Who's watching it?

Speaker 6 (50:23):
Max?

Speaker 2 (50:24):
Isn't no that you leave the house. You haven't told him,
because you're sneaking out.

Speaker 1 (50:28):
I was watching her baby.

Speaker 2 (50:29):
Who's watching your kid?

Speaker 3 (50:32):
Oh' that's very interesting. I didn't even think about that.
Heather though, after again some light be any of her own,
gets the documents that she needs to prove two Max
that Gladstone has been cooking the books yea to make
the home look like it's losing a ton of money.
And actually they've been working for a real estate agent
for the property. And the client that wants them out

(50:52):
is the awful Aunt. It's Winifred good twist. I did
not see that filming.

Speaker 2 (50:57):
I didn't either. I really didn't either.

Speaker 1 (51:00):
She's the bad guy all along.

Speaker 4 (51:02):
There also finds that she's got a great talent for
unlocking locks.

Speaker 2 (51:08):
She's a locksmith.

Speaker 4 (51:10):
Yeah, in the next life, or was in her previous
because her talent for just pop.

Speaker 1 (51:16):
Oh, I'm in, I'm in. She's pretty impressive. But it
is a Scooby Doo moment.

Speaker 3 (51:21):
It is a total Scooby Doo moment when they pull
off the But you know, Winnifred I would have gotten
away with it. So yeah, so we're at the deadline now,
they're still going to lose the house. At this point,
We're at the deadline and Gladstone is sending the kids
cross country and even has Max arrested again for something
now more important than bothering the loan office, which is
very strange. Aunt Winnifred is ready to pounce and everyone

(51:44):
is packing to make a mad dash. Even his aunt's
lifelong assistant is going to be joining Max. He'd rather
be with Max and with Winnifred. His dad figure. Max's
dad figure is coming with them as well. The family's complete.
But in one last interesting hail Mary attempt, the lawyer

(52:05):
suggests that if they call the news and Charlie the
kid who's also an inventor, shows his anti gravity hat
on the news, right, that'll save the home.

Speaker 4 (52:21):
Yes, But the crazier part is how they get them
on it, Like, how where the connection that he has
with this news So it's it's his Yes, it's his friend,
not so much when we meet the friend and he

(52:41):
went to Camp Sakawaukee, they were the two Dans. And
then finally the anchor recognizes him because he the lawyer
Dan was the Dan that had severe.

Speaker 1 (52:55):
Poison ie ivy.

Speaker 2 (52:57):
That's how he got these kids on.

Speaker 3 (52:59):
Yeah, and the news anchor even goes, oh, you you
survived that, like he thought he died at the camp
from the poison ivy. But for some reason, this gets
the local news to come by to pre empt another story.
By the way, yes, to show the anti gravity machine

(53:20):
on news. And so that's really just a cruise. Yeah,
it wasn't great, but it was just a ruise to
then say, hey, yes, while I have invented an anti
gravity machine, kind of an important deal. Really, what's what's
worse is that we're losing the house because this guy
is breaking the law. So it's like they've exposed him

(53:43):
on the local news. It was a very kind of
this is why I said I need to rewrite very
kind of convoluted, weird ending to this to the story.

Speaker 4 (53:53):
Right, So yeah, there is one part.

Speaker 2 (53:58):
I don't know if you noticed it. I don't. I
have too many Serbia seas and I can't miss that.

Speaker 4 (54:03):
The Max as he's Max As he's watching the TV
because he's our in the gage in the garage, trying
to figure out how to with the yes and get
this pos van to take him back home.

Speaker 2 (54:18):
Right, he's still there, he finds he sees it.

Speaker 4 (54:20):
The butler's watching the TV. He notices what's going on
and he says, oh my God. But they totally not
even try.

Speaker 2 (54:29):
To make it look voice over it, oh my gosh.

Speaker 1 (54:32):
And I went gosh.

Speaker 2 (54:33):
It just made me think from what we saw in
prom Pact twenty three to nineteen eighty.

Speaker 4 (54:41):
Six, you can't say stopped over God and had to
put gosh in.

Speaker 2 (54:45):
That was a huge, huge distance from it.

Speaker 1 (54:47):
They used to do that all the time.

Speaker 3 (54:48):
I remember one of my favorite ones ever was I
was watching The Breakfast Club on regular television as a
kid and John Bender has a line where he says,
eat my yours, and they dub it to where I
was watching it, and this is this is not a joke,
this is how it sounded. He went eat my socks

(55:10):
and it was somebody just it was a different voice entirely.
It was the wrong pitch and it was just somebody
going socks right over.

Speaker 1 (55:18):
It was the greatest thing. So they did that stuff
all the time.

Speaker 3 (55:21):
Oh wow, so you're right, it was gosh, God, but
they're watching he gets the motorcycle, they go home, Hey,
you did it.

Speaker 2 (55:28):
Motorcycle saved it. So funny.

Speaker 3 (55:30):
You were now all a family and this Cindy Williams
they kiss out of nowhere.

Speaker 4 (55:35):
Out of nowhere, I mean you saw the Like I said,
there could have been one more little tiny.

Speaker 2 (55:42):
Scene that, yeah, built their relationship up a little bit more.
But this kiss comes out of.

Speaker 3 (55:47):
Nowhere and he's like and she's like, I'm sorry, I
shouldn't have done that. He's like, no, I'm I'm on.
I'm on a rocky mountain, high lady. So that's it.

Speaker 1 (55:58):
But did the end work for you? It's seemed very
wrapped up very quickly.

Speaker 2 (56:01):
For me, it did, it wrapped up really quick.

Speaker 4 (56:04):
I didn't feel like I understood really what ended up
happening with the buying of the house.

Speaker 2 (56:11):
Is the house okay?

Speaker 3 (56:12):
Now?

Speaker 2 (56:13):
What happened with the ant? None of that?

Speaker 1 (56:15):
No, no, no.

Speaker 4 (56:17):
I also thought the cake cutter was so obvious. I
felt it coming when he was asking about it.

Speaker 1 (56:22):
I knew.

Speaker 3 (56:23):
I thought it was going to throw on everybody else.
I thought everyone was going to get covered in cake.

Speaker 2 (56:27):
I thought the way he reacted seemed very real.

Speaker 4 (56:31):
The way maybe yeah, he didn't either he didn't know
or it wasn't It wasn't practiced, you know, they just
went for like the rehearsal.

Speaker 2 (56:39):
But yeah, it was very all right, okay, I mean.

Speaker 1 (56:45):
And then literally movie over, Yeah, which I was.

Speaker 2 (56:49):
I was kind of ready to be I was.

Speaker 1 (56:50):
I was too at that point.

Speaker 3 (56:51):
Again, I loved watching the kids so very funny story,
needed to rewrite.

Speaker 5 (56:56):
Yeah, let's do our real reviews.

Speaker 3 (57:06):
Yeah, I'll take the one star this time. And this
is from It's Either Nita or Nida B and it's
I watched it because it starred John Denver. It's not
one of his better films. It's okay, more of what
they used to call bubble gum. I think that's accurate.
If I'm at one star, I think is a bit harsh,
but yeah, bubblegum is accurate.

Speaker 4 (57:26):
Yeah, all right, this five star by Susan H. John Denver,
Children and Animals? How could you possibly lose? Great movie
for the entire family. Didn't even know it existed until
I typed John Denver into the search bar.

Speaker 2 (57:44):
All right, yep, I am currently.

Speaker 4 (57:46):
Looking for a movie which John Denver acted in called Savant.
All right, this is the best part of this one.
It is also I love Amazon, the products, the service,
the promptness of the whatever need and not be surpass
It's such.

Speaker 1 (58:02):
A weird way to jump.

Speaker 3 (58:04):
It's like I'm trying to watch John Denver movie and
I love Burger King. It's like you, what's happening here,
Susan h We've been playing some wonderful games.

Speaker 1 (58:15):
I love that, And we've got another one that's a
lot of fun.

Speaker 3 (58:18):
This week it's gonna be a king that's called leftover
or left under, and we'll be given again we do
not know. We will be given a trivia question and
we have to decide whether the real answer is higher
than or lower than the number that we have here.
So for an example, like how many hosts are on
Magical rewind is it higher or lower than one?

Speaker 1 (58:37):
It's higher? Okay, great, So we got know we do
not know these We are usually not very good at
this stuff. So here we go.

Speaker 3 (58:46):
First, Like we told you, Julia White would later become
the iconic character Steve Erkle on the show Family Matters,
but it wasn't always guaranteed he break out as a star.
How many episodes of Family Matters was he originally booked
to a piece higher or lower than two?

Speaker 2 (59:04):
Oh? Oh man, I'm going to go with higher.

Speaker 1 (59:09):
See I'm going to go with lower.

Speaker 3 (59:10):
I think he was supposed to be a one off Oh,
I think I think he was supposed to come in right,
but he wasn't supposed to be so I think maybe
they brought him on.

Speaker 1 (59:21):
It's one thing.

Speaker 3 (59:22):
It's either a four episode arc or it's a one off.
I'm going to say lower, you're going to say higher.

Speaker 2 (59:26):
Let's higher.

Speaker 6 (59:28):
It's a one off. It's lower.

Speaker 1 (59:30):
It was it wasn't on.

Speaker 3 (59:31):
It's what I figured. He was only supposed to be on.
All right, one for me, I actually got one. Here's
a second question. John Denver is one of the biggest
musicians of all times. So with this in mind, how
many number one songs did he have in his career?
Is it higher or lower than five?

Speaker 7 (59:48):
Oh, that's a tough one. Five more than five number
one songs? Number one, number one. I'm gonna say hi.

Speaker 1 (01:00:01):
I'm going to say lower again.

Speaker 6 (01:00:03):
It's lower.

Speaker 1 (01:00:04):
It's four four.

Speaker 6 (01:00:07):
The songs are sunshining on my shoulders. Any song Thank God,
I'm a country Boy and I'm Sorry, which means leaving
on a jet plane not a number one.

Speaker 1 (01:00:14):
Wait so wait, so Rocky Mountain High wasn't a number one.

Speaker 6 (01:00:17):
No, not a number one.

Speaker 4 (01:00:18):
Take Me Take Me a Country Road wasn't a number
one Country Road.

Speaker 6 (01:00:21):
That wasn't number one, No Sunshine my Shoulders any song.
Thank God, I'm a country boy and I'm sorry.

Speaker 3 (01:00:27):
Wow, that's amazing because I hadn't heard of three of those. Okay,
So Cindy Williams stars and leftovers, but it is best
known for her time on Laverne and surely widely known
as a set with some serious issues. If you ever
want to read about Laverne and Suirly, it is a
trip to read how this show was made.

Speaker 2 (01:00:45):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (01:00:46):
Oh, they used to literally, she and Penny Marshall would
go into different dressing rooms and count their number of
lines and wouldn't come out of the dressing room if
one of them had more lines than the other. So
they had to write the script where they had an
equal number of lines. Very nutty set to beyond.

Speaker 3 (01:01:02):
But how many years after Lavernon Shirley was canceled did
it take to get Cindy and Penny Marshall to appear
on camera together again? Over or under twelve? It's gotta
be over twelve, gotta be. I don't think it's for years,
for like decades, I don't think they did.

Speaker 2 (01:01:23):
I guess I'll stay hired too.

Speaker 1 (01:01:24):
I'm gonna say higher, and I'm guessing, waiting for keeping.
You'll get one right.

Speaker 3 (01:01:29):
Eventually before our producer jumps on, I'm gonna guess it's
a lot higher.

Speaker 1 (01:01:33):
But let's see if that's right. Okay, go ahead, it's
thirty years.

Speaker 2 (01:01:38):
Wow.

Speaker 6 (01:01:39):
They showed up on Nickelodeon's Salmon Cat as feuding co
creators of a seventy sitcom called Salmon Cat Brilliant Brilliant.

Speaker 1 (01:01:49):
Both women pass away at the age of seventy five.
Too very strange.

Speaker 2 (01:01:52):
The anxiety to hold a grudge for thirty years.

Speaker 1 (01:01:55):
Oh, I couldn't even imagine.

Speaker 2 (01:01:56):
Unreal. I can't do that.

Speaker 6 (01:01:58):
I'm planning on doing it with one of you.

Speaker 3 (01:01:59):
Two.

Speaker 6 (01:01:59):
I don't know which want you.

Speaker 1 (01:02:00):
That's fair, that's fair.

Speaker 4 (01:02:01):
It's really gonna be me because you always want me
to lose on these games, all right.

Speaker 3 (01:02:08):
I think I'm four to four at this point, by
the way, you are, here's the last question. Michael Eisner
would host the Sunday Night Movie, appearing in intros and
before commercial breaks from movies like The Leftovers and Our
Favorite of Course. But it allegedly We're gonna, We're gonna
bracket allegedly for his first introduction. Ever, he required how

(01:02:29):
many takes higher or lower than twelve?

Speaker 2 (01:02:34):
Twelve takes is a lot. I'm gonna go lower.

Speaker 1 (01:02:38):
I'm gonna say higher again.

Speaker 6 (01:02:40):
It's sixty eight. By the way, this is a fact
that was in numerous places, not just fu O.

Speaker 2 (01:02:50):
My gosh, were you for five?

Speaker 4 (01:02:53):
No, I got the first, the third one, I got your.

Speaker 2 (01:02:57):
Twelve years geez, gosh.

Speaker 1 (01:03:01):
Sixty eight takes.

Speaker 2 (01:03:04):
That's a lot. Imagine how long that was.

Speaker 4 (01:03:07):
Because the fuzz Bucket one we saw it looked like
it was a one, like one long take, like like
a monologue that was pretty long.

Speaker 2 (01:03:14):
Do you remember that.

Speaker 4 (01:03:15):
Yeah, So imagine how long sixty eight takes of something
like that would be.

Speaker 6 (01:03:20):
Yeah, no one watched. No one watched the fuzz Bucket
when it was like, Michael Eisner should be in these movies.

Speaker 1 (01:03:24):
Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 3 (01:03:26):
In all fairness, it was not Michael Eisner's fault. They
were being directed by David Fincher.

Speaker 6 (01:03:31):
That's true. A lot of takes, a.

Speaker 1 (01:03:33):
Lot of takes. Okay, Well, let's what what do you
got left for? Sabrina Ce's did we hit most?

Speaker 4 (01:03:41):
Oh man, we hit quite a bit of them. I
jumped in with some of them. So, but because there's
just so.

Speaker 2 (01:03:48):
Many But one thing I thought, I don't know if
you picked up on it.

Speaker 4 (01:03:52):
This is kind of their only building moment of romance
that is built in the movie. It's when outside and
they're you know, hanging clothes, which I thought was so funny.

Speaker 2 (01:04:06):
I don't know, again, in the eighties.

Speaker 4 (01:04:07):
If that was a super normal thing and people didn't
have dry washing machine.

Speaker 1 (01:04:12):
People stillide not a ton.

Speaker 2 (01:04:15):
That was a lot of clothes they had. That was
everything that they own.

Speaker 1 (01:04:18):
There fourteen orphans members.

Speaker 2 (01:04:20):
Of the household.

Speaker 4 (01:04:21):
Yeah, so anyway that was I obviously was just you know,
I always think that's so cute when when that happens.

Speaker 2 (01:04:27):
I love that in movies.

Speaker 4 (01:04:28):
But so they are taking their time talking about it,
and then as he's he's leaving, she says, oh, Max,
you better take an umbrella today.

Speaker 2 (01:04:37):
There's forecasts of rain today. And I'm like, then, why
did you just hang all this un clothes outside and
you're and he's leaving, You're done?

Speaker 4 (01:04:49):
What are you So that that was really like a
funny little thing that didn't click in with many people
on set apparently, And then we mentioned this and I
don't want to stop it. Then because I thought I
might have. I guess I got it wrong. But the
time when we were sitting it says with our stuff
with our producers, that Zoe gets adopted. I picked up

(01:05:12):
that she was going for a couple of days to
try it out. It wasn't an actual full blown adoption.
And he even says, is this legal. I'm like, no,
that is not legal. You cannot just like, this isn't
a layaway borrow situation with a child. That was so
bizarre to me, Like, no, that is not legal. No, Max,

(01:05:34):
do not let her go with them, And she did,
and it was sad, it was ridiculous.

Speaker 3 (01:05:39):
I'm still just now because you said it's terribly worried
for Cindy Williams baby.

Speaker 2 (01:05:45):
My gosh.

Speaker 4 (01:05:51):
So then the last one I'm gonna do because this
I believe, and honestly, I don't know if it's true,
but it's it definitely looks like it is incorrect. There's
two of them in the very first scene when Jesse's
on her her bike with this awesome eighties contraption that.

Speaker 1 (01:06:08):
Sent everybody's harpers.

Speaker 4 (01:06:10):
She's riding along and all of a sudden wipes it
looked like the dog there was a dog that came
out and it almost looked like the dog wasn't supposed
to do that kind of thing, and she wiggled and
then just kept riding and.

Speaker 2 (01:06:27):
They kept it.

Speaker 4 (01:06:28):
She took her hands off, Yeah, she took her hands on,
and then the dog freaking to.

Speaker 3 (01:06:31):
Be like hey, and then she like like almost wiped
out on the bike.

Speaker 1 (01:06:34):
I saw that it was that.

Speaker 4 (01:06:36):
And then the second one again I think, because that
could have easily been something that wasn't meant to happen,
and then they just kept in because they liked the
dog and added a you know, voysilver or whatever. And
then the next one I think could have been the
same way because it was kind of funny. It was
a little mishap when mister Gladstone's coming back into the
car the last time and we see your friend his

(01:07:00):
assistants in there, and he's flabbergasted talking about firing Max.

Speaker 2 (01:07:05):
He's out of here, blah blah blah blah blah, and
he kind of looks like he forgot to shut the door.

Speaker 4 (01:07:11):
And then he tells the driver and he says, what
are you in Acoma? And then you see the actor
that's next to him kind of like, you know, gesture
to the door and then he shut the.

Speaker 2 (01:07:21):
Door and they fly off. Don't you think they could.

Speaker 4 (01:07:24):
Have something that was just a mistake. But it was
funny and they kept it going and did not.

Speaker 1 (01:07:30):
And that's what I still didn't know. It was Willy, Like, oh,
it's I didn't either.

Speaker 2 (01:07:34):
He only comes up one time after Willy.

Speaker 1 (01:07:37):
That's good.

Speaker 2 (01:07:38):
He had three small little scenes and that's so.

Speaker 1 (01:07:41):
And I don't think he had a line or he
had one in the whole movie.

Speaker 2 (01:07:44):
So that's it for me.

Speaker 1 (01:07:45):
My great Sabrina sees as always.

Speaker 3 (01:07:48):
And now we have to rate our movie one out
of ten, one of course being bad, ten being amazing.

Speaker 1 (01:07:55):
What should do one out of ten?

Speaker 3 (01:07:56):
Pet goats, stuffed animal surgeries, beat up hippie vans, awful.

Speaker 1 (01:08:02):
Aunts or anti gravity hats? What do you think? I'm
also gonna add.

Speaker 3 (01:08:08):
Eighties newspaper cannons, which of course everybody had back in the.

Speaker 1 (01:08:13):
Day, the eighties.

Speaker 7 (01:08:16):
Terrible uh, terrible baby baskets or terrible baby baskets.

Speaker 2 (01:08:20):
Yeah, let's do the eighties. What did you call it?

Speaker 1 (01:08:24):
Eighties newspaper cannons? Okay, perfect, So out of out of
ten eighties newspaper canons. How many do you give this one?

Speaker 2 (01:08:32):
Oh? Man? You know was?

Speaker 4 (01:08:35):
I did like a lot of it again the young cast, yep,
but I.

Speaker 2 (01:08:40):
Didn't love there was too many what wait? What what?

Speaker 3 (01:08:43):
You know?

Speaker 4 (01:08:44):
It's just kind of all over. Like I said, a
lot of it was a little spastic.

Speaker 2 (01:08:48):
For me and at a lot of times.

Speaker 4 (01:08:50):
So I think this is not going to be one
of my better ones. I'm gonna go.

Speaker 2 (01:08:54):
With six eighties newspaper cannons.

Speaker 3 (01:08:59):
You know what's funny, it's exactly the number I'm going
to give it. It would be a much lower number
for me if not for the cast. Yeah, the cast
was great.

Speaker 1 (01:09:06):
The cast was great, and.

Speaker 2 (01:09:07):
It was really fun to see.

Speaker 4 (01:09:09):
Obviously the older actors were more well known, but it
was really cool to see these young actors in a
job that you just know was one of their very
first things that they.

Speaker 3 (01:09:21):
Were doing, and they were great for early in their career.
An awesome cast that saved it for me. So I'm
also giving it six eighties newspaper cannons.

Speaker 1 (01:09:29):
Well that's it.
