I had a great time watching this
I have a theory that when pretending to receive a blowjob you could make literally any face imaginable, no matter how crazy or tame, and it would still be believable. This movie is definitely further evidence.
Sorry guys but going to Disney without kids is fun as hell lol. I hate the corporation , I don’t buy or wear any merch, just love a theme park.
happy easter yall praise be to allah
Watch Micro Budget on Tubi: https://link.tubi.tv/zBvsHFBz01b Gabrus is great in this! If you like Gabrus you will like this movie. Give it a watch.
This is an annoying question but Ben, if you are listening... What brand/style of jeans were you wearing on the Doughboys podcast?I've been looking for a non-skinny jean for a while and those looked awesome.
As a Canadian hockey fan, ‘Don Cherry’ really bumped me, but it also wasn’t even in the top 20 weirdest things in the movie
me and my friends listening to jerky boys 🤝 my dad and his friends listening to jerky boys
The only way I have seen and will ever see this movie is by fast forwarding through my parents vhs copy looking for boobs when I was like 14 or something.
lol I can’t believe Disney Adults came for them ..yikes
This going on Criterion today made a fool out of me
Has Gabrus been watching Daredevil: Born Again at all? Y’boy Robert from Mayor of Kingstown is on that and playing kind of the same role there.
Ugh don’t you hate it when you find out Miss New Mexico was chugging your husband’s hog? Love this stupid show.
Disclosure: a love letter to being slightly late to work
The fact that the boys are subbing to OF makes me feel so proud… I for one is well above that “good sir” 👺🤌🏽🙃
I made an art class project that was like a black and green cube Pattern in fourth grade and named it "disclosure" because I thought it sounded cool cuz my dad had the book and then they made a movie. I was like whoa man!
We need a picture of the disclosure cube
A Don Cherry VHS from 1989. The weird mid 90s techno one is on youtube as well. https://youtu.be/8inMNlHGS9w
"Pushed aside" is a generous way to say cancelled for referring to South Asians as "you people" when he saw a group of youths not wearing poppies on or around Remembrance Day. In Canada he's remembered more now for not being able to pronounce any name he's ever read or heard. https://youtu.be/AtNj8CKaOAk?si=nEaiGXnOqXvthpe2
back when Seattle finally started expanding transit, one of the first things was the South Lake Union Trolley, or the S.L.U.T. There were "Ride The SLUT" shirts and shit, pretty dumb but I got a chuckle out of it in my twenties
Never seen it but I saw the episode of Big Mouth where they do Disclosure the Musical. I think I get the idea,I'm good. If it were hotter then maybe I'd throw it on someday, but sounds like it doesn't have any hot scenes.
Coming to Criterion Channel on April 1st.
Gotta say I still love this movie despite all it's flaws, it's just too well made, too well cast. And as someone that lives in Seattle it's a great watch, love seeing so many locations used well. According to someone on the Seattle subreddit Douglas got kicked off the golf course on Bainbridge Island because he didn't have a membership.
Friend of mine in sixth grade would walk around school with an 'advanced' book under his arm - one of them was Darwin's The Origin of Species and another one I remember was Michael Crichton's Disclosure (now a feature film!). I never read it or saw the movie until now but god it is funny to think about my friend thinking this shitty sex thriller was sophisticated and adult. Later he read The Godfather and told me about the vaginal surgery Sonny's mistress undergoes.
From the preview I thought the VR would be a bigger part of the movie but nope unfortunately
Don Cherry also had those sick ass rock em sock em tapes in the 90s He was invited to speak as a special guest at Rob Ford’s first council meeting as mayor of Toronto and he dedicated his speech to “all the left wing pinkos out there.” Total freak, gotta love it.
Don Cherry unironically referring to people as "pinkos" well into the early 2000's was something else.
I think the specific of the wine being Pahlmeyer Chard was spot on for boujee 90s. This movie was crazy not in a good way but held my attention. 5 oaky bottles of Chard!
When you guys listed the top rentals and were surprised that Speed was lower than expected, that made me remember that in the days of VHS, it was rare that you would get an actual movie for adults that was priced for sale right out of the gate, and I think that Speed was one of them. It may have been a little lower on the rental charts because people were actually buying it. Like, I’m pretty sure that I bought it day one. I know I saw it at least three times in the theaters, and I have a personal connection to the movie, having heard all about it through production, because my dad got to work on it. He didn’t work on the crew exactly, but he was a liaison with the Department of Transportation people or something. He was there every day for several weeks when they were shooting the highway stuff.
yeah i remember getting it for christmas
Zero complaints just wondering if this movie is the furthest outside the normal ABZ "charter" for a mainline episode.
Don Cherry is also a legendary freaky jazz musician and I believe father to neneh and eagle eye…
I always considered Eagle Eye the absolute last gasp of buying an album on compact disc just to hear the one hit song on the radio. It was the end of an era.
It’s funny you guys bring up Disney adults considering that the piece of shit Lindsay Graham is hanging out at Disney World with all the shit that’s happening in our country, and around the world acting like a typical Disney adult. It’s such a shame this podcast can’t be more topical.
Jesus, what the fuck can he even do down there? Isn’t he in his eighties? Update: He’s only 70?!? He’s 5 years younger than my dad, but looks 10 years older.
Six years of subscribing to ABZ and I had my first déjà vu movie experience… turned out it wasn’t Disclosure being covered before, it was just years of talking about Michael Douglas getting throat cancer from eating pussy.
Disclosure Day (wait, that’s a different movie 😅). Awful title for your movie, Spielbergo.
Bad movie
Don Cherry is also the name of a cool jazz trumpeter, in case you're not conversant in Canadian sportscasters.
A largely accurate dramatization of the '90s.
Well, Monica Lewinsky DID use VR to access Clinton's secret Epstein files according to the Drudge Report in 1998...so yeah, pretty accurate.
“Sleaze merchant” is so good
This movie at one point didn’t have cultural staying power, but I feel like the last decade of movie podcast mining has revived it tremendously.
Definitely one of those “if you switch the roles xyz group will get it” explanation stories. There’s 100% an element of “Modern Women are dangerous!” though ultimately it’s painting an explanation in large letters for those that don’t get what the problem was. Sci-Fi is usually good at that shoe-on-the-other-foot messaging.
I can remember when this movie first came out in '94 and it felt SO try-hard and dated even then. 😆 The Prozac line near the beginning feels so forced, all of the harassment stuff is ridiculous, and it culminates with the VR climax which I can remember just feeling silly....and there had actually been a MUCH better of that same kind of file stealing/getting wiped out setpiece just a few months prior in Clear and Present Danger. Also the twenty year age difference between Demi and Douglas is super-obvious....was she a pre-teen when he took her on sex trips to Napa Valley?? 😆
