Planes, Trains and Automobiles Review

About this Episode
During holiday travel, some people get delirious,
some get delayed, and some get dull -gripping.
New page got all three. I was on my way home
to spend a nice holiday with my family. Instead,
I'm in a motel bed with a stranger. So instead
of Thanksgiving with his family, he's spending
three days with the turkey. Two happy clams just
whistling down the road. Two happy clams just
whistling down the road. Two happy clams just

way! What? Are you mad at me? John Kenley. Why
are you holding my hand? Where's your other hand?
Between two pillows. Those aren't pillows. in
a new film by John Hughes. Planes, trains, and
automobiles. Hello and welcome to the 49th episode
of the M -Wire. Today we are going to be discussing
planes, trains, and automobiles. I am TFJR Mike
and joining me is Kevin Optima Solo Thompson
from Tooncast and BehindTheVoiceActors .com.
Hello. Hello, how are you sir? I'm superb. Yes,
that's good. I don't know if it was a scheduling
conflict or what the deal was, but Steve said
he wasn't going to be in this episode. I don't
know why. I don't know what's wrong with him.
Well, then again, he was born in 1986, so he
kind of came into the 80s late. Shame on him.
Oh, crap. So this episode will actually air a
week after we celebrate. We barely celebrated
the one year anniversary of this show on episode
48, which we talked about Jumanji, I think. Yeah.
It's been a rough week, so I don't really remember
what the hell we talked about last week. But
yeah, planes, trains, and automobiles. When was
the first time you saw this? Oh, god. I honestly
don't remember the exact time when I saw it.
I know I saw it when I was young. Let's see,
I would have been about six years old when it
came out. I'm guessing I saw it when I was around
10 or 12 maybe. So it was probably a few years
after, five or six years after it came out probably.
But I saw it probably, I don't know, early 90s
somewhere maybe. It was instantly one of my favorite
movies, comedy -wise. Yeah, I think I started,
I don't really remember because I know there
is cursing in this film. Especially in one scene
which we'll get to a little bit later But I I
honestly I think I was nine or ten maybe so 89
or 90 somewhere around there Yeah, somewhere
around there, I'm not really sure um You want
to do a plot or do you want me to do it? I can
talk about the plot a little bit. Okay? All right,
so basically obviously it's a Planes, Trays,
and Automobiles, for those that don't know. It's
an American comedy film written and directed
by John Hughes and starred Steve Martin and John
Candy, of course. All right, so the plot, basically,
Steve Martin is a tightly wound character named
Neil Page. He's an advertising executive, and
John Candy is an innocent and well -meaning but
accident -prone and overly talkative and somewhat
reckless shower curtain salesman named Del Griffith.
And basically the story goes that they start
off in New York, they have a little fiasco with
the taxi cab where Steve Martin's trying to get
a taxi cab. Doesn't work out because John Candy
basically steals it. That's the first time they
meet each other. And then they meet each other
in the airport on the plane. You know, they have
a delayed flight. on the plane and we just basically
travel with them as they're trying to get back
to their homes for Thanksgiving. Steve Martin
is set on being with his family on Thanksgiving
because he doesn't want to let them down like
I'm sure he does often and John Candy really
doesn't care too much. I mean he's kind of a
carefree go -with -the -flow type guy and it's
basically just their journey to try to get Steve
Martin back in home in time for Thanksgiving.
Oh, geez. The short version of the plot. Wow.
Yeah, I, um... Yeah, wow. This film is so messed
up. I love this film. I love it, but it's just
so messed up. I now know why, and we'll talk
about this later, but there are two DVD versions
of this. There was the original Bare Bones edition
that was put out in 2000, and then last... And
then last year, they put out a special edition.
Those aren't pillows edition. I'll talk about
the DVD a little bit later, but after watching
this thing, before we started recording tonight,
I now know where that goes from. I was like,
oh god, because I so don't remember that. It's
been at least 25 years since I've seen this.
25 years since you've seen this? Yes. Somewhere
around there in 20 15 20. It's Whenever the last
time I saw it was that's 23 at the most. Yeah,
whatever So that's probably been at least a decade.
Whatever. You know, yeah, you didn't watch it
today. Well, I said before this oh before Yes,
I did what yeah something that ever since the
first time I've seen this I don't think there's
been Three or four years that has gone by that.
I haven't watched it again. I just Part of it's
because I love John Candy, and I love just about
everything he does. I have almost all his movies,
but this movie in particular, I just love the
pairing of these two characters, and it's just
absolutely freaking hilarious, so I can't go
too long without watching it. See, my thing was,
whenever it would come on TV, obviously they
would have to bleep it, and obviously, until
2000, we never had a DVD of it. Of course, yeah,
there was VHS, but I don't ever remember owning
this on VHS whatsoever. No, I didn't either.
I honestly don't and actually Up until two and
a half weeks ago. I didn't own it on DVD either
I had to actually order this on Amazon in preparation
for this episode. So yeah, even though I love
this film, huh? Shame on you. Yeah shame on you.
So It's a good thing we did this episode now
and not like three or four months down the road
because holy crap I still wouldn't have had it
in wow What did you think of the cuddling scene?
I mean, that was probably my... I don't know.
That actually wasn't one of my favorite scenes
in the movie. I mean, it was funny, but I like
so many other parts better. I think it's funnier
after the reaction, after they get up. Yeah.
Yeah, I was embarrassed. Getting the bear's reference
in there, it's always good. There's so many good
parts in this movie, though. It's really hard
to pick out favorite parts in here for me. Yeah,
and you have them in like the upteenth degree
of Kevin Bacon as well, because Kevin Bacon played
the taxi racer. Right, yep. And that's kind of
an interesting scene, because if you listen to
it real carefully, you can actually, in the background,
you can hear the fight from... Between Kevin
Bacon and Elizabeth McGovern that's from the
movie. She's having a baby Yeah, yeah, so that's
kind of an interesting thing so Kevin Bacon's
of course always got nice connections to everything
I'm trying to think of my favorite. I love the
scene Not because it's so funny, but I love the
scene where Steve Martin just goes off on John
Candy in the hotel room. Oh, yeah Just because
it's such a, you feel so bad for John Candy and
they did such a good job of like getting the
viewer to feel sorry for John Candy there. Yeah.
And it's just a very powerful scene, but I'd
have to pick a funnier scene for my favorite
scene, but that scene for some reason sticks
with me so much because of how mean he was and
kind of John Candy's reaction to it. It's a very
powerful scene to me within a comedy that doesn't
have... a lot of what you call powerful scenes.
Oh, yeah, very, very much so. There's so many
good scenes. I'm going to have to think about
this for the whole show before I get to my favorite
scene, though. I just want to go back to the
plot a little bit. We need to talk about the
ending. And I know we're kind of jumping all
over the place here, but you had mentioned that
scene where it... first of all Neil as you said
is very very uptight and Del is pretty much this
you know whatever happens will happen and you
kind of see Neil melt at the end when Because
Neil is into the assumption that Dell has a wife
and family of his own, which he frequently mentions
his wife, Marie, and puts a framed picture of
her on his various mental nightstands, Neil is
taken aback when he, uh, later pieces together
things Dell said to realize that Dell is alone.
He goes back to the train station where he had
left Dell and sees Dell sitting alone inside
an empty station. After they finally make it
back to Chicago, Del tells Neil that Marie actually
died eight years ago, and that he's been homeless
ever since. The bond between the two men strengthens
further when Neil invites Del to enjoy Thanksgiving
with his family. So I thought that was a really
nice ending. And it also shows that, you know,
Del, that character hides. I mean, he puts on
a good mask. Oh, yeah, because he's always jumping
around from motel to motel and I don't know how
the hell and You kind of get it wrong. He's not
in the shower curtain division. He's in the shower
curtain rain division. He just sells the rings
Yeah, but um, I don't know how you could go around
the country making a living on that though Yeah,
that's true, but I mean just in general even
back then I mean, I honestly don't know. I mean,
yeah, I've heard, you know, we all know door
-to -door salesmen and Avon and Tupperware and
Fuller Brush and whatever the hell else, you
know, but I mean, I just, I don't... Well, it
obviously doesn't make much of a living. Obviously
not. But I think you brought up a good point
there, and I think he does John Candy and the
writing and everything for his role. They do
an excellent job of not only keeping that from
Steve Martin's conscious about what's going on
with John Candy, but the audience really is kind
of, they hide it from them too. I remember watching
it, and the first time I watched it, I just thought
he was kind of this crazy guy that was kind of
in the same situation. You never realized what...
the real story was until Steve Martin realizes
it. So it's kind of cool to experience that at
the same time as a character. And like I said,
you know, it's been a number of years since I've
seen this. And that, I mean, I'm almost coming
into this movie fresh. Yes, I remember the car
rental scene, which we'll get to in a few minutes.
Yes, I remember the hotel scene, both of them.
The hotel yelling of Neil and then the in bed
scene. The shower scene was horrible. God. Poor
guy. But I honestly, you know, I did not remember
the ending of this film. I remember that they
go, that the two of them go back to Neil's house,
but I honestly did not remember why. And wow.
That's wow. Why the hell Is Neil an ad exec in
New York when his family lives in Chicago? Obviously,
he's married. He's not divorced. He's not separated
Yeah, what the hell is that all about? Yeah,
I don't know if he's just out there. I think
it was just a Singular business trip. I think
he didn't necessarily work out of there on like
a permanent basis I think he was there trying
to sell something or trying to do something and
it was just a trip that A temporary trip, so
to speak. OK. All right. Because the way that
it made it sound was, I don't know, just to me
when they were sitting in the boardroom, like...
They made it look like an everyday situation.
Yeah. Yeah. And oh god, that boss of theirs,
holy crap. I want to stick a knife into his eye.
It's like, say something. Pick one. Yeah, right.
But I'm pretty sure he was working out of Chicago
and that was just a trip to New York for a specific
thing. That could be. That could be. I know it
isn't. I know that both this and Home Alone were
filmed in Chicago. They were actually filmed
a town away from each other. I know. Well, what
I was going to say was, it looks to me when they're
walking down the street with the trunk, it looks
like the exact same street that the McAllister's
house is on. And then when I noticed the house
of Neil, outside of the fact that there's no
driveway, that there's no U -shaped, there's
no horseshoe driveway, In front by the front
door that is almost the the home alone house
as far as the outside of it goes Yeah, it looks
a lot like the home alone neighborhood. Mm -hmm.
I Thought that was kind of cool. I don't know
if that was intentional or or not, but yeah,
I'm not sure about that. Yeah All right, let's
talk about it the rental car scene It's a great
scene It shocks the hell out of me what Edie
McClurg shows up in. Yeah, that's true. It really
does, because she can show up in anything. Yeah,
and she plays that role so well. Oh, yeah. But
basically, if you don't know who Edie McClurg
is, she is the attendant that they go to at the
rental car place that Steve Martin has to deal
with. Or she has to deal with Steve Martin however
you want to view that yeah, and I I honestly
I cannot rip I cannot repeat verbatim what he
said I know what she said in the end was oh,
oh What you're fucked? I actually ripped that
audio out so that'll be in this episode somewhere.
I think it'll be at the close to the end of the
episode oh I do love the scene though when they're
in the car and when basically they ruin the rental
car with the cigarette and it melts down the
entire car except for the radio. That was just
a great scene. You know, honestly, I don't doubt
that Del, John Candy, whatever, whether you want
to do it as a character or as the actual actor,
I don't doubt that he could have broken that
seat. He's like, oh, come on, he can't break
a car seat. They made us... whatever he said.
I don't remember what he said, but... I'm a big
guy myself, so I know. I haven't done it, thank
God, but I'm sure it's possible. Because I've
gone through, in the past, I'd say four years,
I've gone through about six office chairs for
my desk. Anyway, that's a whole other story.
What else do you want to talk about with this
film? I mean, obviously, the other big scene
that we kind of touched on a little bit, the
F -bomb scene, which is basically, I guess, from
what I've read about it, that it's a minute -long
segment, and they use the F -word 18 times, at
least. So 18 F -words and 60 seconds or so from
Steve Martin. And I guess it was intentional
to try to make sure that the movie got a different
rating. Actually, no it wasn't on the on the
DVD that I have here Which one it's the special
feature getting there is half the fun the story
of planes trains and automobiles It's part of
a panel segment that he that Martin candy and
and Hughes did and they asked him about you know
What's the controversy with the you know John
Hughes and the MPAA? He said there's no controversy
You know he said that You know, it's adult humor,
it's for adults. We only have, you know, we drop
the F -bomb once in the movie, or one time in
the movie, you know, as far as one scene. But
no, I don't think it had anything to do with
it. I'd read something about that, not necessarily
for the US, but without that scene it would have
been rated, a different rating in the UK, and
they wouldn't have been able to... to show it
in certain areas, but I'm not 100 % sure. There's
also a scene that a lot of people don't see if
they see the TV movie or certain versions of
it, because I think it's only on the DVD version,
maybe, is the scene in the airplane with them
eating. Actually, the deleted scene is on the
DVD. It's on the Those Aren't Pillows edition,
the one that got released in 2009. The one that
got released in 2000 on DVD is just a bare bones.
It's just it's just a movie It's just a movie
and subtitles and whatever other which you know,
I'm sorry, but You know when they when they say
stuff like, you know widescreen version Dolby
digital surround Spanish mono subtitles. Those
are not special features. Those are specifications
of the DVD I hate it and they're on every DVD
so it's not special Huh? They're on every DVD,
so it's not special. No, I know. And that's what
I'm saying. But sometimes on some DVDs, and I've
ranted on MYR about this in the past, on some
DVDs, they list the specifications as special
features. Oh, that's what they do on this one.
Yeah. Because I have the crappy version. And
it says special features, big bold on the back
of it. And then it says widescreen version, Dolby
Digital, English subtitles, interactive menus,
and scene selection. Yeah. Those are not special
features, those are specifications of the fucking
disc. Yeah. So I gotta go buy the other disc
eventually. Yes. So you need to get the new version,
the 2009 version. I got it off Amazon for I think
like, I don't know, 10, 12 bucks? Something like
that? Yeah, Amazon has had some good deals lately.
Yeah, they had Fraggle Rock earlier for $37 .49,
but I'm dead broke. Whole series. Yep. Whole
series. And I have the whole animated series,
so I was very tempted by that. Yeah I mean I
need to get both and now that I I actually remember
that there's Wow, we're really getting off to
engine here But while there's so many cartoons
that keep popping up like I know there's not
a lot of DVDs for it But I thought of Alf the
animated series Wow tune cast schedule just keeps
changing and changing But anyway um on the Wikipedia
article that I couldn't paste because I couldn't
paste the wiki Into word for every episode of
my just because it's easier than having the website
open They show a map of the the intended route
and the and then the actual The different lines
of what they had to go through The actual flight
went from New York to Wichita Then they get on
a train from Wichita to somewhere, I think it's
St. Louis, maybe, I'm not sure. And then they
get via, no, the bus went to St. Louis, I think.
Yeah, the train goes about halfway through Missouri
and then the bus goes to St. Louis. Right. And
then the rental car goes about halfway into Illinois.
And then the milk truck goes the rest of the
way. Oh, God. That's great. What did you think
of the cast of this? The cast is phenomenal.
I mean, and you know, John Candy, like I said
before, I like him in just about any movie I've
ever seen him in. Steve Martin, for me, is a
little more hit and miss. I mean, I like most
of his stuff, but there's plenty of stuff that
I don't like. But the choosing of those two for
these roles was genius. Yes. There was definitely
no other... Some movies you could say, oh, you
could sub this guy in or you could sub that person
in and it would still be good or it would be
better. No, not for this movie. Nobody could
have taken these two guys' place. No, not at
all. And like you said, I mean, the rest of the
cast with people like Edie McClurg or, you know,
you have little short segments from like Kevin
Bacon and Ben Stein and his boss is a fairly
famous actor. I just can't remember his name
right now. It's a pretty decent cast. I mean,
really, you only need Steve Martin and John Candy
and the rest is, you know, inconsequential. But
it's a decent cast, even with all the side people.
No, you know, you got... And the thing with Hughes
is he likes, you know, he likes going back and
giving people stuff to do in his other films,
like Farish Bueller's dad's in here. You know,
I really at the end of Lawrence's in there, you
know It's actually Joey, but yeah, Matthew Lawrence
is in here Lila Robbins. Oh my god at the end
of the film When he went up the stairs to hug
her or whatever. She just looked ugly as all
get out. I'm sorry I just didn't look like somebody
Steve Martin would marry. I mean, you know, where's
Diane Keaton? Come on, let's go. Yeah. But, you
know, this is just one of those films where you're
just entertained by the main two stars and you
really don't even hardly even notice anybody
else besides Edie McClarrigan, Ben Stein. That's
about the only two other people I even would
have been able to tell you were in the movie
besides Martin and Candy. Yeah, well I noticed
Bagan because everybody thought it was Bagan.
I noticed Ferris' dad because everybody should
know Ferris' dad by now. But overall it's a really
great film. It's a really great friendship type
of film or learning to become friends type of
films. So I guess going into the reception here.
The film marked a widely noticed change to the
repertoire of John Hughes. The film was greeted
with critical applause in 1987 and surprising
revelation given the fact that at the time Steve
Martin and John Candy were both known as relatively
low brow comedians and John Hughes was considered
a teen angst filmmaker. Their attempts at producing
an adult comedy resulted in one of the most highly
regarded films of the decade. It now has 95 %
positive ratings on Rotten Tomatoes and is featured
in Roger Ebert's Great Movies collection. In
2000, readers of Total Film magazine voted the
10th greatest comedy film of all time. The film
also was financial success earning over $150
million on a mere $15 million budget. This has
proved to be one of John Candy's highest -grossing
films. While some of the film reviewers were
critical of the gushy tones and silliness seen
in the film, which affected the ability to convey
emotional range, most applauded the humor itself.
In the baby not -on -board episode from the TV
series, Family Guy, Peter Griffin recites John
Candy's speech almost word for word. shot three
hours worth of footage for the movie too and
I guess in the interview they asked him if there
was really three hours and he said yeah there
is but it would take years to try to put it all
together to make it all back into a film because
it's all just bits and pieces of film yeah I
mean they could probably do it like if they were
um this thing is coming up on some sort of anniversary
in 2017 isn't it well yeah thirties 30 years?
Let me look, hold on. 30 years. Oh, whoops. 30
years. You sure? Yep. I did my math. Yeah. But
he said most of it's locked up in the Paramount
vault. Well, even if it is locked up in the Paramount
vault, I am sure that if they can find a way
at Warner Brothers to put back Dick Donner's
Superman 2 cut, I'm sure that they can find a
way to put together this like in some sort of
30th anniversary edition DVD, even if it was
in there as deleted scenes, I'm sure that they
could find a way to do so. As far as the home
video release, the film was released on DVD in
2008, quote unquote, bare bones presentation.
And a special edition, Those Aren't Pillows edition,
was released on October 20th, 2009. And let's
talk about this for a second, seeing as how you
have the shitty copy. I'm sure it's pretty much
the same thing as what you have other than the
actual special features. Getting there is half
the fun. The story of Planet Strange is on all
wheels. John Hughes for adults and a tribute
to John Candy and then the deleted scene of airplane
food I did watch all of getting there is half
the fun I watched part of Hughes for adults and
I watched like three or four minutes of the of
the Hughes of the tribute to candy One of the
reasons why I didn't watch it all was because
I just didn't have time I mean I'm sure I'll
go back and watch it eventually but basically
what it is is they just basically cut one long
like I guess press conference into three different
features because it's it's the three of them
in in all three features see I thought the tribute
to John Candy was something that they went back
and did after he paste paste passed away but
it's pretty much the story behind planes trains
the John Hughes adult filmmaking or whatever
the hell not not adult filmmaking, but you know
what I mean Yes, this is not porn. Thank you
very much. We are explicit, but we're not that
explicit yet Notice I said yet So it basically
breaks up this one long press conference into
three different features So there you go Anything
else you'd like to say about this Just that I
need to get the other DVD, so I can see all the
special features. Yes, you do. And then you had
just mentioned that this is one of John Candy's
highest grossing films, or it is the highest
grossing film. And that's a big statement, because
John Candy had so many classic movies, in my
opinion. I know a lot of them at the time, if
you were our age when they came out, they were
probably like these Saturday Night Live movies
that we're seeing these days. People don't take
them serious, but they're so classic. Yeah, the
line is this has proved to be one of candy's
highest grossing It's not it's not the highest
grossing film, but it's one of them And that's
a big statement because he had a lot of good
stuff out there. Oh, yeah. Well except for wagons
East and Delirious I didn't like those two very
much. But anyway, I have I have a bunch of I
have like the John Candy complete collection
of DVDs basically I Have Uncle Buck in the other
room. I had to put that on the schedule at some
point great stuff Yes. Actually, did John Hughes
do Uncle Buck too? I don't know. I'm not sure
if this was the start of a bunch of them that
he did like that or not. I don't remember, but
I'm actually drawing a line between this and
Uncle Buck because he tries to throw the cigarette
out the car window. And it falls back in the
seat. My Uncle Bucky falls asleep at the cigar
on the couch, and it burns the couch down. Hmm.
I think it is. Yes, it is a John Hughes film.
I remember that now. Because Hughes just passed
away, and I had just gotten Uncle Bucky in the
mail, and at the time, This Week in Geek had
put out their retrospective or tribute episode
to Hughes. So yeah, it is a Hughes film. Yep,
that'll have to go on the schedule somewhere.
All right, so we have anything else? Just it's
good stuff. Now you are going to hear that epic
car rental car scene. Get out! Get out! Get out!
Oh, Jean Marie, you're a stitch. No, Mom's gonna
do the turkey. Yeah, Dad wants ambrosia, so I
guess we gotta get those miniature marshmallows.
And I'll do the crescent rolls and you do the
cranberries. You know I can't cook. Yeah, well,
I'll see you tomorrow then. Gobble, gobble. Welcome
to Marathon. May I help you? Yes. How may I help
you? and start by wiping that fucking dumbass
smile off your rosy fucking cheeks. Then you
can give me a fucking automobile, a fucking Datsun,
a fucking Toyota, a fucking Mustang, a fucking
Buick, four fucking wheels and a seat. I really
don't care for the way you're speaking to me.
And I really don't care for the way your company
left me in the middle of fucking nowhere with
fucking keys to a fucking car that isn't fucking
there. And I really didn't care to fucking walk
down a fucking highway and across a fucking runway
to get back here to have you smile at my fucking
face. I want a fucking car right fucking now.
May I see your rental agreement? I threw it away.
Oh, boy. Oh boy, what? You're fucked. Do not

on the pillows This is just easily one of my
favorite comedies of all time I'm a humongous
fan of old -school comedy and when I say old
-school I'm talking about you know John Candy
and some real comedy Yeah, John Candy Bill Murray
I could watch just about anything either one
of those guys does and this out of all their
movies this one's up at the top or up near the
top of all the comedies that I treasure my I
don't know, I love John Candy, I love this movie
and it's definitely funny, as funny today as
it was the first time I saw it. I don't watch
a lot of movies over and over again, I'm not
a big fan of re -watching movies and this is
one that I can re -watch without a problem. I
agree and I disagree at the same point. I agree
with that you can watch it over and over again
or over a period of time, seeing it multiple
times, but I honestly For me movies are not just
a one -time watch You know, I mean we covered
it over in tooncast in the Christmas episode
I watch Christmas vacation every year. I don't
care how old that movie gets I will watch that
film every year at Christmas on Christmas Eve
or Christmas Day until the day I die you know
this film I don't know when the next time I watch
it is but At least I have it now so I can watch
it instead of having to go out and find it online
or something. But, I mean, see sometimes, it's
funny, sometimes I buy DVDs because I want to
watch them and other times I buy them because,
oh, I have to add them to the collection. It's
just one of those things where it's almost like
I'm a pack rat for DVDs and toys. And when I
say DVDs, I don't just mean films. I mean TV
shows as well. Something we're going to have
to add to the NY schedule eventually is I just
bought it off Amazon a couple weeks ago, Throw
Mama from the Train. Oh, god. Yeah. So. Yeah,
this if you haven't seen this movie you need
to watch it and if I don't know it to me it's
a must -have in any DVD collection just because
Especially with comedies that you can watch over
and over again like we're talking about and you
should own this and you should watch it. Yes
Yes, yes, yes, so oh what what do you guys got
going on over at BBTA? Did you fill out that
Frank Lunker resume anymore? Well, it's up to,
good lord, it's up to like 200, no, is it 300?
Oh god, I'll have the number here in two seconds.
It is 279 characters we have credited for right
now. But basically the latest things I've done,
obviously other people are doing all kinds of
other stuff, but the latest stuff I've done,
which I sent you the link for, is the both the
Laugh Olympics show and getting all those characters
in and good lord that's a great voice cast. And
what else did I do? Oh I just got done two more
things. Tiny Toons Adventures, I filled out that
page almost entirely. I mean not entirely because
there's so many freaking characters but I have...
Now is that just a character page? That's a character
page. These aren't voice compares right? No those
aren't voice compares. The last voice compare
I did was actually I just started what I'm calling
a Hanna -Barbera classic voice compare section.
And the first character I did was Mildew Wolf
from It's the Wolf and Laugh Olympics. So I'm
going to be adding a lot of Hannah Barbera characters
to voice compares. And I did update a bunch of
Transformers voice compares with the voices from
the Japan -only Transformers Tataki PS2 game.
And the voices are pretty terrible, but I added
those to about six or seven characters on the
Transformer voice compares. stuff all the time
then you know if you're a fan of voice actors
or the voice compares you know friend us on facebook
because every time we do a new voice compare
we post it on our facebook page yes um... so

of them or five whichever you prefer Yes, and
Kevin will be joining us on that episode because
honestly I have nothing against Raiders and I
have nothing against Temple of Doom I'm just
not interested in those films. I've seen them
before and I just don't like them Great So and
Crystal Skull can kiss my ass Um, so the only
one I will actually be talking about on episode
50 is the only one that I consider really good
is Last Crusade. It is my favorite one too, but
the others are all good. Crystal Skull's just
not as good. Crystal Skull, I'm sorry to say
- You can agree that Last Crusade's the best
and Crystal Skull's the worst. Crystal Skull,
I'm sorry to say, is Shia LaBeach sucking on
Spielberg's dick. Now we just got really explicit.
Well, it has an explicit tag to it and I've said
this before Between you know, you you could have
Steven Spielberg on the left and Michael Bay
on the right and in between Oh God now we got
really explicit So that's all coming next week
Wow, okay, so Optimus Solo from BehindTheVoiceHackers
.com. You're listening until next time. Holy
shit. In a world. There. I said it. Happy.
