Together, Griffin, David, and Ben discuss the despised 2004 sequel film, Ocean’s Twelve. Topics include: why Soderbergh’s challenge to himself proved unsuccessful, gentleman thievery, flashbacks within flashbacks, the word ‘chuffa’ and more.
Movie starts at…8:48

I doubt they really are up on his production discography. They’re New York dudes who likely couldn’t name three Mobb Deep songs.

2024-08-23 09:23:41 +0000 UTCI think about this moment at least once a month, how JSC claimed her parents in East Philly had a Faberge Egg or two and Zouks was flabberghasted.

2023-09-01 22:05:07 +0000 UTCFigured it out. It was Jessica St Clair on HDTGM. She thought her family owned one but turns out she doesn’t know what they are. 🤣

2023-08-28 20:18:04 +0000 UTCI thought that but I don’t think I everrrr listened to those episodes of blank check.

2023-08-28 20:14:32 +0000 UTCYes - it was during one of the James Bond episodes. Whichever Bond movie features a Faberge Egg.

2023-08-22 05:04:55 +0000 UTCAnyone remember the conversation about the Fabergé egg? I seem to remember the dough boys talking about them but now I’m like wait was it blank check?

2023-08-12 18:44:43 +0000 UTCSeems rude to refer to THE ALCHEMIST as only “Eminem’s DJ”. One of the most impressive u deerhound hip hop producers maybe ever?!

2023-08-12 03:27:11 +0000 UTCI enjoyed learning that David and I share the same opinion on Interpol’s second album.

2023-08-08 19:17:47 +0000 UTCThey'll have a ball with the Q tech

2023-08-04 03:08:51 +0000 UTCThose Brosnans are like wall-to-wall quasi-vaporwave technology, I feel like Ben will have interesting and perhaps critical takes

2023-08-04 03:07:34 +0000 UTC“Looky loo doesn’t make sense. Let’s do a … backwards dick”
Daniel Citron
2023-08-04 03:07:27 +0000 UTCYeah that was fuckin remarkable hahaha
Rad Rodge
2023-08-04 02:37:32 +0000 UTCWhich I’m stoked for, those are ideal BCSF stuff
Rad Rodge
2023-08-04 02:34:43 +0000 UTCYeah I am in that consensus
Rad Rodge
2023-08-04 02:34:02 +0000 UTCIt would have been fine until Julia pretended to be Julia. Then it became execrable.
Stephanie Thompson
2023-08-04 01:58:57 +0000 UTCThat's what I thought but it seemed like it'd be something he's more involved in but hey I'm down. Thanks!
Chauncey Telese
2023-08-04 00:44:43 +0000 UTCThe consensus appears to be that they're going to be doing the Pierce Brosnan Bonds, two of which Coltrane is in.
Brian Jaudon
2023-08-04 00:34:45 +0000 UTCThey mentioned Coltrane would be I'm their next patron series. I don't think it's potter so what else would they be doing where he features alot?
Chauncey Telese
2023-08-04 00:26:47 +0000 UTCStandalone, baby

Eric D Drago
2023-08-03 17:18:37 +0000 UTCsorry if this has already been answered/explained but why are direct links to the files no longer in the episode descriptions?
Daniel Soto
2023-08-02 23:57:03 +0000 UTCI’ve walked out of maybe a handful of movies in my 38 years on this planet. Oceans 12 was one of them. Just an absolutely boring slog. But this episode was great.
Anthony Alfano
2023-08-02 21:49:38 +0000 UTCthe chorus of “she’s” from david and griffin was so cute, really warmed my cold trans heart. best ep of the year!
kennedy
2023-08-02 05:05:11 +0000 UTCThe fact that this can be studied so deeply is something I do love about these movies
Rad Rodge
2023-08-02 04:28:30 +0000 UTCWhat an absolutely delightful, weird, no fuck given piece of cinema. Perfect summer vibe! I will say the issue with this series is the movies are so good I find myself getting lost in what's on screen and missing the podcast.
Sarah Farrell
2023-08-02 03:24:55 +0000 UTCThey do have a #12. Roman. Same as in OTwelve. 😁
Ditmarser
2023-08-02 02:44:05 +0000 UTCSee I would argue Tess is #12 even as Benedict is #13 and there’s just not actually a #12 in operation during OThirteen hahah, Benedict becomes the thirteenth person with an official Ocean’s ID but the OThirteen crew may or may not actually have thirteen members during the heist
Rad Rodge
2023-08-02 02:40:01 +0000 UTCReally depends, but I probly am at 70% listen as standalone
Rad Rodge
2023-08-02 02:38:03 +0000 UTCHated this movie when it came out, convinced now it’s kind of a masterpiece

2023-08-01 22:11:16 +0000 UTCI think constantly about the Julia Roberts thing. After Ocean’s 12, I’ve understood in every movie I see that either (a) the actor within the movie looks different to other characters in that movie than to us, or (b) that actor’s IRL counterpart just doesn’t exist in the film’s universe.
John Halski
2023-08-01 19:33:50 +0000 UTCTess is Danny’s wife. Not #12. Roman is #12 in OTwelve and OThirteen and Benedict is #13 in OThirteen.
Ditmarser
2023-08-01 19:24:30 +0000 UTCWould be on my sight and sound 10

2023-08-01 19:03:07 +0000 UTCIf it's something I've seen recently (or a bad movie I don't care about like the original Ocean's), I'll sync, otherwise I watch the movie first then listen to the ep on its own.

2023-08-01 18:23:02 +0000 UTC😂😍

2023-08-01 16:29:34 +0000 UTCBen’s comment regarding Andy Garcia’s Dracula meets Austin Powers look was so perfect it floored me.
Mike Dickson
2023-08-01 16:03:13 +0000 UTCI sync up myself
Mike Dickson
2023-08-01 16:02:46 +0000 UTCGeneral question. Do you sync up to the movie or listen to the episode as a standalone?
Brian German
2023-08-01 14:36:18 +0000 UTCLost in Translation is my favorite bit in the whole movie
Jordan Gibson
2023-08-01 12:23:59 +0000 UTCA lot of Ben's nicknames sound like the nonsense jargon of the Ocean's movies.
LS
2023-08-01 09:37:06 +0000 UTCHated this in the theaters. Revisited two days ago and was transported. Now I own a zoom lens.

2023-08-01 05:51:26 +0000 UTCJust around the corner, just out of frame
Rad Rodge
2023-08-01 05:11:18 +0000 UTCHighly recommend just thinking about Naboo as often as possible during this film, of course
Rad Rodge
2023-08-01 05:07:15 +0000 UTCWhen they cut from Saul to the Night Fox and the beat drops . . . that's why we love to watch the moviesh
Rad Rodge
2023-08-01 05:04:16 +0000 UTCone of my fav movies

2023-08-01 04:27:07 +0000 UTCOH, LET THE SUN BEAT DOWN UPON MY FACE, STARS FILL MY DREAMS.
Raphael Esguerra
2023-08-01 04:08:03 +0000 UTCBoy, I did not like this movie when I saw it in theaters. I imagine I will appreciate it a lot more now that I'm not fifteen years old!
