This one we come up with a whole new show and also talk way more about movies than usual!

Literally describing Kingdom Death Monster

So the mention of Fury Road at 35:35 hurts me.
I was at a drive in theater double feature with a full car of friends. Playing Jurrasic World. And then Fury Road.
Words can't describe how excited I was for Fury Road.
Austin and I were watching Jurrasic World, and dunking on it so hard, outside my car. Having a great time. The movie ends, it's garbage, and I'm so excited to finally get to watch Fury Road ON THE FUCKING DRIVE IN MOVIE THEATRE SCREEN
And then everyone in the car asks why we aren't going home yet. I, confused, turn and say "but fury road is the whole reason we came. The group chat, where we agreed to this. Jurrasic World was garbage. I only came because of fury road."
Everyone in the car was adament that we leave. And 20 minutes later, in an absolute rage, I am playing A Day To Remember just loud enough to annoy the passengers, as I drove agaonizingly slow through the parking lot. My friend giving me shit for going so slow the whole time. Stopping at every turn to look back at Fury Road playing on THE FUCKING DRIVE IN GIANT ASS TV THEATRE SCREEN. The sole reason I drove myself and 4 friends 90 minutes away, while I was fully broke, to the DOUBLE Feature drive in Theater.
But nah. We saw garbage ass Jurrasic World, and then part of the first 10 minutes of Fury Road that night.
Despite our decades long friendship, I will never forgive this transgression.

You need to copyright this, because that is brilliant

Goodness me. I paused the podcast and watched Fire Works (Hana-bi) by Takeshi Kitano, and boy am I glad that I did. Wow. That film is art. Best Takeshi and Joe Hisaishi pairing ever. Stupidly stunning. That movie really does throw you one way then another. I'm so lucky that I went into it knowing nothing. Already looking forward to a rewatch someday.

Oh my gosh, this sounds so great. If season 4 isn't Black Adder DnD v1.0 then please make a mini series about it. It sounds like you're all excited about this for the same reasons that Kingdom Dad Monster is popular.

The way I found this podcast was by looking up DnD Podcasts and I thought the name was funny so I clicked literally if they didn't use DnD I would have missed this masterpiece, I just specifically wanted a dnd podcast I could listen to on Spotify 😅

The Dungeons and Dougs/Serf's Up thing sounds a little like "D&D but Everyone is Kobolds." Everyone plays a kobold fighter with 5hp. You are a kobold with a randomly generated name and characteristic (i.e Dolly the Inadequate, Kor the Brutish, Juniper the Sticky etc) and when you get killed you just generate a new kobold.

Matt saying that Speed Racer is one of his favorite movies made me absolutely lose my mind. I LOVE Speed Racer the movie and I cannot state how much I felt validated when he said it

I know I'm super late to the party (new to patreon, been listening to the pod for a while now) but thank you Beth for listing Repo! The Genetic Opera. I've loved the movie since it came out, so much so that I have a Zydrate tattoo.

I gotta say: listening to the way they put down 5e, I don’t think any of them have played it with any particularly good GMs. I’ve been playing the same character for 3 years in Rime of The Frostmaiden game; character death is VERY real and our DM has NEVER just arbitrarily tossed a “pack of wolves” at us. Not since like, 1st or 2nd level anyway
Brandon Curtis

Hearing Beth's list is 90% comprised of my favorite movies and it was life altering. Blade Runner, Moulin Rouge, The prestige... yessssssssss :)
Shel B Kennas 1st fav sprite girl! Wishing a Merry Mariachi to Emily Happy Fucking Bday to Jork hope you both had perfect days

I'm actually working on my first low budget horror movie. But what got me into wanting to make movies is HOW TERRIBLE SO MANY MOVIES ARE!!! I was smoking pot watching the new night swim movie, The movie was so bad. I literally told myself. I could probably have a budget three thousand dollars and make a way better horror movie. So I guess we'll find out in a year or two if I was correct or not.

Oooh the initials on the ring were "Sally Wilson" XD I thought it was Meryl Streep (but upside down)
That makes more sense. Meryl's marriage never came up.

I love the idea of celebrity guests for Dungeons and Dougs, but they die right away. Like "This week, special guest Patton Oswalt" then his character dies in the first encounter and he doesn't speak again for the rest of the episode.

Skyfall is one of my favorite movies, and now I can't watch it again, even though I don't know why Sam Mendes movies aren't "okay" anymore lol.

Their idea sounds vaguely similar to the indie game Going Under

You should look up the ttrpg "Paranoia" it's Sci fi but it's very "interns going to incompetently complete a task or job while throwing each other under a bus" (and people who die are replaced by up to 5 clones) and the one game I saw on geek and sundry was SO chaotic and hilarious

I love watching movies so much. I almost never watch TV. The game I've started to play is "guess the IMBD score" I've gotten pretty damn good at it. I encourage everyone to play.

Dungeons and Doug’s is a great idea but it should be called dougeons and dragons

Sounds like Dungeons and Dougs is basically Squid Games!

So now that season one is done, we’re getting Dungeons and Dougs, right??

Okay but...you guys realize this is it, right? This is your next campaign after daddies ends. How do you follow up something as hilarious as daddies? It’s Interns. Do it for the millennials.

I transcribed the list of movies here: https://www.reddit.com/r/DungeonsAndDaddies/comments/ihgutn/spoiler_talking_dads_ep_40_favorite_movies_no/
Daddies, please let me know if you'd prefer me not to leave that list in a public forum since it came from the Patreon-only Talking Dads ep. I'm hoping you don't mind, as I thought it'd be nice to have that list in a referenceable written form.

As a Doug, I approve of Dungeons and Dougs.

you guys should totally do the entry level podcast but have fans take turns like an actual game show on a live stream

QUESTION: I really love how you creatively open each episode, especially episodes 40 and 19. Out of all the episodes (to include the content on Patreon) — what is your favorite opening? And can you please share some of your planning/production processes.

"The Fifth Element" is my favorite movie. It has action, comedy, romance, sci-fi, fantasy, and some drama.
