Apex mountain: scenes that make the audience shed a tear

Thinking when Elliot says goodbye to ET... thinking when Daniel Larusso uses an illegal kick to steal the karate championship from Johnny Lawrence... thinking the ending of when Harry met Sally... thinking when rose wouldn't move over so jack could get on the debris with her...

Scenes that brought a tear from the audience... im looking for the gold standard... the scene with the most juice

Tears arent necessarily a sad thing so one's that make you happy or angry about something in said film count too...

Looking for the apex mountain of scenes that make viewers cry

Lord of the rings

I’m just saying next February or march they totally don’t need a theme month they could totally do all 3 lord of the rings and then a one for them. What you you all think?

Hypothetical: be careful what you wish for' month

Inspired by obsession... the genre revolves around the opportunity to get the thing youve wanted via a wish... but theres always a catch

Its not necessarily a horror trope as well so theres variety here

The Mothman Prophecies was just added to Netflix US. Really solid movie if you haven’t checked it out yet.

More of an atmospheric slow burn, but really well paced and it’s one of the more creepy paranormal/cosmic horror movies I’ve seen in the last 20 years or so.

What are the most notable Dion Waiters performances of the 2020s so far? David Lynch as John Ford in The Fabelmans has to be up there.

Live mystery Rewatchables coming Monday afternoon

Sometime in the afternoon (PT) on Netflix. Bill said he will announce it over the weekend but "there's a really, really good chance you've seen it." Looks like one of the big ones may be coming off of the board.

Is Tom Conti as Einstein in Oppenheimer Dion Waiters eligible?

He does a great Einstein! But does it count given how important Einstein is to the greater story and ideas of the film?

The moneyball all stars

Trying something here

Thinking of low investment gems that exist in hollywood right now

Your qb1 that hasnt found a big budget film yet

Your supoorting players that could come in and hit a clutch double that no one else knows about

Your cinematographer who needs an elite director to notice them

Your music guy who could rival Ludwig and Hans if given the shot

Need a filmsworth of potential all stars to satisfy my thoughts here

Craig is right: King of Queens rules

I listened to the episode on Hitch last night - fun if not somewhat chaotic due to Bill, Van and Mina talking over each other way too often. There was a point during Hottest Takes when I had to hurl my headphones off my head due to how unpleasant it was listening to them crash their words.

Anyway … I really enjoyed Craig bigging-up King of Queens on more than one occasion during the episode, and here my’s Hottest Take: KoQ is the most underrated sitcom of the last 30 years.

That may not be the case in the US but it certainly is in the UK where very few people have heard of it, let alone seen it. That has been my experience anyway from speaking about it with friends, family and work colleagues. Genuinely, my brother aside, no one I know/come across has any relationship with KoQ whatsoever, and everyone should given how great it is. Funny and also dark in a way that you don’t see in most/all similar shows: there is an episode in which Doug, Kevin James’s character, tries to get his wife Carrie, played by Leah Remini, drunk every night after work because he prefers her that way. James and Remini are also two members of a fantastic cast, the star of which is no doubt Jerry Stiller as Arthur. Truly, one of the great sitcom characters of all time.

Anyway, well done Craig for giving KoQ its flowers on The Rewatchables. My sense from listening to the Hitch episode is that Bill, Van and Mina don’t have much of a relationship with it either. They, and everyone, should.

Is Kevin James the most successful actor to have never been on the pod? Or I guess was until Hitch

Also could be viewed as the Kevin James Award for leading man who only makes bad movies award. Let me know who else you think fits into this category

Movies they have to do before the pod wraps

If they don't ever do at least a few of these movies, the pod will ultimately be a failure, IMO (you may not love all of these movies, but they are ALL insanely rewatchable, objectively so):

  1. Tootsie

  2. Boyhood

  3. Carrie

  4. The Squid and the Whale

  5. Little Miss Sunshine

  6. Juno

  7. How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days

  8. Almost Famous

  9. Dog Day Afternoon

  10. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

  11. Thirteen

  12. 500 Days of Summer

  13. Class

  14. Slumdog Millionaire

  15. Crooklyn

  16. Short Cuts

  17. Welcome to the Dollhouse

  18. Into the Wild

In the most recent pod at the end, Bill as a throwaway comment said that they haven't done Interstellar yet. I am pumped!!

These recent episodes got me to start running it back from the beginning...

They've been fine but I haven't seen or didn't like. So here we go.
