Welcome To The Basement" is a show about watching, discussing and having fun with movies. None of the discussion or riffing is planned ahead of time.
The movie announced on Facebook before every new episode. We do discuss the entire movie, including the ending, so if you want to avoid spoilers, watch the movie first.
It’s cool to see Matt and Dylan talking at normal volume to each other lol. Great episode guys.
So cool you got Ned Flanders as a guest star.
best dang diddly guest star ever
Stupid sexy Dylan...
Stupid sexy Dylan….
He's the Canadiddlian Cousin, smokin' his reeferoni!
You see this and you realize that Commando was inevitable. Hercules in New York: he tips a car over. Commando: he goes to a tipped-over car and flips it back upright.
Please let Dylan come back to Beer and Board Games
I know, i want it soooooo bad!
I doubt it's a case of Matt not letting him, I have to assume Dylan's just not wanting to do that show anymore? Maybe he became very busy with his job and is avoiding playing the clown on social media due to that. Just a guess.
@@DYFLProductions yeah i kinda assumed that was the case. when BBG started he was very early in his career. i kinda figured he was trying to prevent something like that prank call episode from actually happening in real life
My favorite early Arnold movie is _The Villain_ (1979). It's a Western comedy, directed by Hal Needham, that's basically a live-action Roadrunner cartoon. It was the first movie I ever saw on HBO, at my uncle's house in 1982, because my parents would never have paid for cable when you could watch TV for free. An amazing cast: Arnold plays Handsome Stranger (named for his father, you see), Kirk Douglas is the villain Cactus Jack, and Ann-Margret is the love interest Charming Jones. Also Paul Lynde (as a Native American!), Foster Brooks, Ruth Buzzi (Damsel in Distress), Jack Elam, and Strother Martin. Sadly, it is nowhere to be found these days, unless there's a copy on YT.
Makes a great double feature with Evil Roy Slade!
I can’t get enough of Arnold Stang, one of my favorite actors!
"Put the discus DOUWNNuh!!!"
I had so much fun watching this episode. Thank you for Years of enjoyment.
Matt's description of Oppenheimer sounds like a description of every single Nolan movie.
Oh my God, it's 'I Love You Grandma!'
and “I HATE YOU PAUL GUSE!!!” 😆
I remember we watched this in high school Latin class on a couple of substitute days but it was the dubbed version. Totally forgot it existed until now lol.
I like seeing Dylan in the basement. (Though I still miss Craig 😢)
Last time I saw Dylan, I am pretty sure he was drunk and in a bee costume. He may have been crying. Great to see him!
love ya buddy
Wow kinda wild this show has been going since Netflix produced physical DVDs to your door
When this show started , my now adult children were in elementary and middle school.
Ive only ever seen the meme and had no idea where it was from omg hahaha
Love how they used all Roman named but for Zeus and Nemesis.
It's pretty common to mix and match the gods' names, because the names modern people know best are all over the place. Hercules over Herakles, but Zeus over Jupiter, etc.
$728 for 24 beers? So beers are seriously $30 each?! 😵💫
This presumably included the food.
Oh hey, that UK Squeeze showed up in the Pumping Iron video, also starring Arnold. Nice.
Where's Dylan's pocket constitution?
Seen it? God of Gamblers. Part Rainman, part James Bond, all kickass.
Whaddya you, some kinda wise guy? We just seen it, that Pluto guy!
It's amazing that Dylan finally grew up, wow
Don't let that moustache fool you!
My friends and I enjoyed Oppenheimer, but we also got a kick out of picking out the unnamed physicist cameos like the nerds we are.
love dylan… how’s he doing?
Seeing Dylan with facial hair, particularly a Dad Mustache, feels cosmically wrong.
I only had one issue with Oppenheimer, and it was that they flubbed the big Trinity test. You have to get the scale of explosions just right in movies, especially for something as huge as a nuclear blast. Unfortunately, Trinity just looked like a big gasoline bomb, not a nuke. That one shot should have been CGI.
Totally agree with Matt's take on Oppenheimer as well. I thought it was a boring mess.
5:27:I'm Stu
Great video.
Wait they did pumping iron on the basement, I gotta find that ep !
Hey, Dylan made it into a full ep!
Dylan is old what’s happening. Time isn’t allowed to pass 😭😭😭
Maybe you should have turned on the subtitles for this one.
Seen it: The Rebel with Tony Hancock? :)
Seen it! Look back in Anger, my only question about the movie is why was Richard Burtons character always so mad about everything all the time!
The plot of this movie is suspiciously similar to the first Thor. Like, a child things are out of order but it's pretty much beat for beat. Him being sent to the mortal world and having his powers taken away are one event in Thor but separate events here, otherwise it's almost the same movie.
Re: Oppenheimer, there's an opera that's a better story & drama of the same events. Doctor Atomic. Worth checking out.
Have you guys seen Poor Things? I thought the world was one of the most beautifully stylized worlds that I have seen in a bit. Emma Stone was great and definitely deserved her Oscar for the role. I can see however how the premise in combination with the plot points could rub people the wrong way. I think the character's eloquence for one helps to make that less troublesome than it otherwise could have been. What do you guys think?
I thought Oppenheimer was okay. Not great, but not best picture stuff either (I was rooting for The Holdovers). What I disliked the most about it was the editing. The first hour and a half felt like some continuous, hectic action movie trailer. Many movies nowadays try to capture our attention in this way, even when it isn't really appropriate for their subject matter. Though usually they find their proper pacing after 15-20 minutes.
Who is this guy? Bring in the older one
Shouldn't it have been"Heracles In New York"?
We'll split the difference. Heracules.
Pretzy doesn't have 2 bucks for a cab, but money for a bespoke suit for Herc? Also, the ancient Greeks had theatre, where actors would portray the Gods, so why was Herc getting so upset?
I thought Oppenheimer fine. It was just okay. My main thing is, it was either too long or too short. It either needed to be two hours, cutting out basically everything that takes place after the bomb goes off. Its not needed. Or they could have made this thing like six hours long and included more stuff from the book. What it is right now is a bloated, incomplete story, but what it's going for is great! It confuses me that it swept the oscars.
OK
Maybe not as successful. But Lou Ferrigno IMO comes close to Arnold in physicality and didn't cheat on his wife.
OMG, I am so glad I'm not the only one who didn't like Oppenheimer.
Scene it: Red State? It was not what I expected from a Matt Smith movie at all. It was interesting to see him step outside of his usual dick and fart joke bubble to do something more serious.
you mean Kevin James.
@@miguelnewmexico8641 Correction on both of us, Kevin Smith. lol I was watching something about Dr. Who before I commented and Matt Smith was on my brain. Thank you for the correction.
Arnold better than Daniel day Lewis ?
Thank you Mat. Oppenheimer was highly, highly over rated. I didn't care at all about the Senate hearing, the conflict between Oppenheimer & the Matt Damon character was as stereotypical as you can get and it seemed like Nolan was stunt casting the other scientist . The film itself looked & sounded great, and I think it was well edited but beyond that it didn't nothing for me.
So THAT'S why the Republicans get along so well with the Russians. They both wrestle with bears.
i don't get it.
Is Dylan Matt's brother? Am I remembering that correctly?
Love Dylan, so happy to see him on a video again ❤️
Pretzy just having pretzels in his pocket or whatever, and Arnold taking an uncharacteristically small bite of one is pure film making genius
I think real life Arnold was just worrying about his carb macros.
Having ONE beer during a movie is just a great plus. Makes me appreciate just drinking a single beer. Don't need too many beers to enjoy a lot of things.
Absolutely love “Oh Brother” and its soundtrack 🥰 20+ years later I still quote lines from it in everyday conversation. “I don’t want Fop, goddammit, I’m a Dapper Dan man!” 😆
He's a suiter.
@@rebekahyoder9335 He’s bonafide! 😄
5:30 That's The Guy who voices Top Cat??
I have a Blockbuster copy of A League of Their Own and it has spanish sub titles that can't be turned off 😂
also thos station wagons are glorius ❤
I hope you've at least learned to say, "There's no crying in baseball!" in Spanish. If not, you frittered your life away. 😉😁
@@TroubleToby3040 sadly I'm frittered 😆
@@pianoface 😂🤣😂
Have you seen Spaceman? Mark and I just watched it and found the ending to be rather dull. Seemed like it was trying to be overwhelmingly symbolic, but it bored me. Max Richter couldn't save it for me. I also felt like Adam Sandler's character fell flat. He wasn't likeable or unlikable to me. I'd love to hear what you thought about it. Also saw that Matt Sloan was the special effects director. Great job - Those were very good. 😊
An excellent episode! And exactly the sort of film I love WTTB episodes for, what an odd one lol. Big ups Matt, big ups Dylan!
@5:08: You tell 'em Hercules!! 😂
Casse-Tête literally means break-head
I'm a dapper Dan man.
Oppenheimer didn't leave a huge impression on me, except I was shocked to learn that Truman's "crybaby" line was a real quote.
8:00 Had me rolling 😂.
So nice of you to have your little brother on the show once in a while...
I though they dubbed his Voice maybe I’m thinking of a Lou ferrigno movie ? Oh you got it undubbed I guess they would only make them with Arnie’s voice, why not
Jackie Chan is, I think, the only movie star who can compete with Schwarzenegger.
pretzy should have just had pretzels in his pockets that he offers people throughout the movie
Seen it ! The Simpsons Movie from 2007
Atlas is just the son of a Titan, but they blame him all the same
Shoulda wore the bee costume.
Have you seen the Johnny Weissmuller Tarzan movies? The arnold of his time.
One of those would be good to do on the show. I'm wondering if they hold up at all?
There is probably an inherent amount of sexism and racism, maybe some blackface, but not over the top? it's been a long time since I've seen one. The rest should hold up. I saw them when they were 30 years old and loved them. I was a kid though. They are classics and if Matt hasn't seen them he should watch one. One where Tarzan fights the Nazi's should make up for any other problems :)@@suedenim
Dylan! What's up, man?
17:00 This reminds me of how you can watch Bruce Campbell learn to act as "The Evil Dead" goes along
Matt, I’ve been saying the exact same thing about Floppenheimer for a while now. After the Oscars I’ve given up…
Can't remember if you've talked about this already but, The Holdovers, seen it? I think the way they created the mood and showed the impact of the backdrop of the early 70's was superb.
I distinctly remember Matt saying he really liked it. I don't recall if they really "talked about it".
